I thought I thought 0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:54.720 that you immediately. It's funny because when I posted it, 0:02:54.760 --> 0:03:01.920 I think you tagged you're like seeing that he almost 0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:04.560 I kind of put the shock at his head when 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:15.280 I showed him this film. He was just getting okay, okay, 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:19.040 give let's move one to get straight into it. The 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:21.079 hip hop community the first time I actually seen the 0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:24.639 hip hop community UM come together recently and this was 0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:26.600 like this. There was a whole bunch of secret group 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:30.919 chats and everybody was like really really concerned about you, 0:03:31.480 --> 0:03:34.760 and it was really really concerned about um case slang 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:38.920 um because they said at one point, like you guys 0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:41.280 had you had you had the bad version of COVID, right, 0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:44.120 So it's plain to people who haven't had COVID, um, 0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:46.240 how how does how? How does this work? Well, the 0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:48.280 first time I had it was when it first started. 0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:51.160 You had it first. I had it twice. Uh no, 0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:53.960 okay cool. But the first time I caught it with 0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:56.360 March when it first started, had to the show with 0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:59.160 Caress One at Sony Hall and New speaking of Carats 0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:05.600 gave you COVID. A matter of fact, it was the 0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:08.280 last concert that New York had seen when the COVID started, 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:12.080 and we did uh Howard Theater next night in d C. 0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:14.800 When I got on the airplane seeing all these wipes 0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:16.600 on the plane, it was like damn Mas's peculiar. I 0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:18.600 started wiping off my little abea when I got home 0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:21.360 that night, when I first started and I wiped off 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:23.480 this off my little area when I got home that night. Man, 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:24.760 I was sick for a week and a half. I 0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:27.480 couldn't stand up, I couldn't drink, I couldn't eat. It 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:30.120 was really bad, and it was you know, I understand 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:32.160 why people died from me, man, it was it was hard. 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:34.680 But Fred de Gard someone sitting in my studio and 0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:36.760 a month later he was dead. You know what I'm saying. 0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:39.080 It was crazy, man. So you know, um when I 0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:41.760 called it this time, I did a show which I 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:43.640 was gonna cancel. I had canceled a bunch of shows 0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:45.080 and I didn't cancel this one because it was a 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:46.840 lot of bread involves. I supposed to go get it, 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:49.680 but it was New Year's Eve. I didn't Houston. I 0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:52.279 didn't hear another show in Houston next day. When I 0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:54.640 got home that following day, that's when I got sick 0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:56.479 and I put the video out, and had I thought 0:04:56.480 --> 0:04:58.839 about the all the attention that it was that it 0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:00.800 was gonna get. I wouldn't never put the video out. 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:04.440 It's the first time, you just the second time recent time. 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:06.120 So when I put like I said, when I put 0:05:06.120 --> 0:05:08.239 the video out, had I thought about all the attention 0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:10.120 that it would have gotten, I probably would have put 0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:12.240 put it out about it thought twice. But I'm glad 0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:15.080 I did because broke people up to to understand. Don't 0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:17.360 trust nobody as city as ire. But why do you 0:05:17.400 --> 0:05:21.640 regret that I don't understand, because you know, sometimes when 0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:24.040 you do things, I'm not gonna dude that you know. 0:05:24.080 --> 0:05:25.599 I watched people get caught up in the in the 0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:28.359 camera and want to be on the camera just for 0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:30.520 the sake of of them having a camera, and they 0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:33.000 face and they just want a certain amount of attention. 0:05:33.040 --> 0:05:34.919 I'm not really into that. When I showed things on 0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:37.200 the net or whatever, it's to inspire you to show 0:05:37.240 --> 0:05:39.560 you I'm doing good. It's to make you want to 0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:41.880 do good, and you know stuff like that. So you know, 0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:44.360 sometimes you know you put things up there, it's like, 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:46.440 you know why you had to do that. So but 0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:48.040 then again I thought about it, was like, it's a 0:05:48.040 --> 0:05:49.760 good thing I did put it out there, you know, 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:52.480 saying so people will wake up and know that it's serious. Man, 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:55.880 hit me and um, you know I was. It was bad, man. 0:05:56.040 --> 0:05:58.000 It was bad to the point where I didn't wanna 0:05:58.000 --> 0:06:01.400 do no days, canceled all my shows. And you know, 0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:03.560 a matter of fact, when I when I canceled, when 0:06:03.680 --> 0:06:08.000 when the pandemic happened and everybody started going back to 0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:10.240 do shows again, they was trying to get me to 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:12.320 come back out and take nothing. I don't go back 0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:15.680 on into last year, and I was only taking certain dates, 0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:19.400 certain shows, certain size buildings and stuff like that. So yeah, 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:21.840 because for the most part, it did seem like at 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:24.720 one point the DJ's was seeming in immune, meaning like 0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:27.040 there was still DJ's going out party and they was 0:06:27.080 --> 0:06:29.440 wearing their masks on kind of social distance and but 0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:31.440 still going to the parties. I remember seeing Millo in 0:06:31.480 --> 0:06:33.800 a couple of them, remember seeing it envying a couple 0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:37.040 of them, and um, so almost almost felt like the 0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:40.640 DJs is immune at one point. And then, um, then 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:42.599 you and k Slay gets sick around the same time, 0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:44.920 have you in case late spoke. I spoke to case 0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:48.680 Slate when it first happened, and you know, because you 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:50.920 was in hospitalized, wasn't you know, I wasn't hospital but 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:53.800 he was, but he was and and uh yeah, I 0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:56.040 spoke to case Lay a few times, and then I 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:57.920 started speaking with his mom's going back and forth with 0:06:57.960 --> 0:07:01.880 his mom and show. He was, Okay, haven't heard anything lately, 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:03.880 you know what I'm saying. But I'm sure he's getting better. 0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:06.200 You know, our hearts was with him. That's my boy, 0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:08.280 that's you know, that's that's all about do is case La. 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:11.960 We're saying, so we wanted to be good. You know, Yes, 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:13.520 we're gonna get you. We're gonna get you right. You 0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:15.600 know what I'm saying this is drink chance we goddamn 0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:18.080 And you know what I'm saying.

Yeah, it's all He's 0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:40.120 like DJ. So again, you have no idea how you 0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:41.840 you you got it right, like when you got it, 0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:43.600 you have no idea how you got it.

So now moving on, I know you ever 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:21.320 thought New York City would be legalized marijuana? I knew 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:25.600 at some point. I didn't think like initially, but I 0:08:25.640 --> 0:08:28.680 do once I seen when I went to Denver, I've 0:08:28.720 --> 0:08:31.960 seen that laid.

This dude got three hundred fifty buses on 0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:26.079 his law and this dude lives on two thousand acres 0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:27.960 of laying. Him and his buddy got an airport in 0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:30.120 his crip. You said he never seen nobody or he 0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:33.959 never seen nobody nobody, no, no, no, nobody ever bought 0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:37.240 just rented. How much was this is this time? The 0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:39.960 buses he got buses a two point three million dollars 0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:42.920 on this lawn lined up? You know, mins wasn't that much. 0:11:42.960 --> 0:11:46.440 I think my pay probably one point three maybe no, 0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:50.120 I'm lying, I'm lying, is about seven fifty at the time. 0:11:50.440 --> 0:11:53.720 But he had one point three pre vows and two 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:55.720 point three p vows is laid out and he would 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:59.760 fix the busses right there and this lawn he has right. Yes, 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:02.559 he would have all these different houses that he built 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:04.840 and put people that worked for him in these houses, 0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:07.679 and mostly everybody that worked from was black. And how 0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:10.079 he started it was he was um. Him and his 0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:13.000 brother started his band, this group in nineteen sixty and 0:12:13.040 --> 0:12:15.480 they made this record and the Wrecking with Top forty, 0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:17.120 but they didn't like to fly. So what they did 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:19.800 was they bought a school bus and they got to 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:21.520 the school bus out they put the couch and there 0:12:21.559 --> 0:12:23.640 put the chairs and then you know, and they made 0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:25.640 it comfortab when they went on the road. After the 0:12:25.640 --> 0:12:27.760 record died down, they rented the bus out. And they've 0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:29.400 seen all this money that they were making from the bus, 0:12:29.440 --> 0:12:30.960 so they went and bought another one. Then they brought 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:34.360 another one next to you know, each brother ony bus 0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:36.400 is a piece. And these buses two point three million 0:12:36.400 --> 0:12:39.400 dollars the two of us. I wouldn't say they invented. 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.080 I wouldn't know that, but I know they didn't like 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:45.839 to travel. You know what I'm saying. They where they 0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:50.440 have the one of the ranches in Leedsburg, Lesburg, Florida. Yeah, yeah, 0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:52.920 that's what all the buses come from. I thought that's 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:57.040 the one that owned the bus that he's white, last 0:12:57.080 --> 0:12:59.160 name was Calhoun, but most of the people that worked 0:12:59.160 --> 0:13:02.400 from his black. I mean one dude that that he said, yeah, 0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:05.000 I'm gonna pick up my girl. He said, were coming 0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:06.480 to me. I was like, no, I'm good. He got 0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:08.680 an airplane, left, came back twenty minutes with his girl. 0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:12.000 It was crazy. Pulled up with the plane. Everybody got 0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:14.599 a house and got a plane in their garage with 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:17.720 either bends or something crazy in front of the house. 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:19.839 They building houses on the rand, on the ring. His 0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:23.640 dude got thirty swamp boats. He lives crazy. Now. Never 0:13:23.920 --> 0:13:25.920 see nobody lived like that. His brother has the exact 0:13:25.920 --> 0:13:30.080 same thing that he has. So when you travel with Carerest, 0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:33.520 that you're travel on boat. No, no, no, I didn't 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:36.640 really travel with care I just did certain shows with Careless, 0:13:36.640 --> 0:13:38.080 you know what I'm saying. We do like spot days, 0:13:38.120 --> 0:13:40.280 like I'll do his shows. A matter of fact, I 0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:42.199 traveled more of a rock kidney. I did Carerest with 0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:44.760 me and Rock Kim did a whole tour together. Yeah, 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:47.120 we did a whole tour. So but me and Caress, 0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:50.000 there's so much monumental things, you know what I'm saying. Also, 0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:52.120 Carest was there with my daughter vinga Love was born. 0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:54.200 He's a godfather of the love, you know what I'm saying. 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:55.880 He was there at the hospital. I was in towns 0:13:55.920 --> 0:13:57.720 down here in Florida and doing the show with Tampa 0:13:58.240 --> 0:14:00.160 when she was born, and he was at the hosp. 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:02.240 It was crazy, man. But so like I said, have 0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:03.920 so much sence to me with so many people, but 0:14:04.000 --> 0:14:06.640 mostly mostly I've been on the road for myself and 0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:08.280 it's a pleasure to know that, you know what I'm saying, 0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:10.920 I could sell out a spot and you know, make 0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:13.400 a crowd happy and don't have to depend on if 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:16.000 I need somebody else there. If somebody else there's it's 0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:17.600 a plus. But I could do it on my own. 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:20.360 It's dope. But after doing versus yourself and after being 0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:22.400 on the road with rock Kimp, we do think rock 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:27.360 Kim was best doing versus against me and Swiss sat 0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:31.600 down many times to talk about different people to match up. 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:33.600 I mean, we sat down the phone one time for 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:36.640 three hours trying to get somebody to match it with 0:14:36.840 --> 0:14:39.280 l L couldn't find nobody in But the first I 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:44.120 first started was Swiss had called me and asking me, well, 0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:46.320 Busting didn't coming mind. It wasn't a bust that we 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:48.160 was thinking of. No mass a matter of fact, I'm lying, 0:14:48.160 --> 0:14:52.600 Buster did come up. But when um, how I first started, 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:54.160 Swiss had've reached out to me and asked me if 0:14:54.160 --> 0:15:00.480 I give rock Kim with came when not, No, I don't. 0:15:00.600 --> 0:15:03.840 That just doesn't seem like a good match to me, 0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:06.200 all give me us used to be on the block 0:15:07.160 --> 0:15:10.520 Caress and Rock him. It was always that. It was 0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:13.120 never Careless and Cane or Rock Kim Kaine, even though 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:16.360 Kane was I was just outrageous to us. But it 0:15:16.400 --> 0:15:20.120 was all the argument was always Caressing Rock Kimp. But 0:15:20.280 --> 0:15:21.960 you know, when I reached out to Rod told him, 0:15:22.440 --> 0:15:24.120 you know, say, I told him why I thought he 0:15:24.160 --> 0:15:26.160 should do it. But you know, ri Rod moves the 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:28.440 way you're gonna move, man, you don't move like you 0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:32.720 know what I'm saying. And um, sometimes something that's good 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:36.120 may not be good for you, you know what I'm saying. 0:15:36.160 --> 0:15:39.280 Like I was asked to do versus four times before, 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:42.520 not not my own, the help other people, and I 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:44.440 turned it down because I didn't feel like it was 0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:46.120 the right thing for me to do at the time. 0:15:46.200 --> 0:15:50.240 Sometime people jump on something because the opportunity is there 0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:53.080 or because the hot thing to do, and it may 0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:54.560 not be the right thing to do at the right 0:15:54.640 --> 0:15:56.360 at that time, what I'm saying. So when I did 0:15:56.360 --> 0:15:59.160 it with Caress and Cane, that made sense, you know, 0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:01.120 And I told them the why first, you know what 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:05.119 I'm saying. But who was people first? It was somebody else. Um, 0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:07.400 I think Keith Sweat. I reached out. I wanted me 0:16:07.440 --> 0:16:09.520 to do it, which out. I love Keith Sweat is 0:16:09.520 --> 0:16:12.120 one of the greatest. But I just didn't see sense 0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:14.840 of me standing behind keep Sweat white. He's crooning, crooning 0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:17.440 what I'm gonna do, Like I'm standing what I'm saying, 0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:19.360 Like you know what I mean. So that's what I'm saying. 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:21.360 Like somebody else might have took down. I'm not knocking that, 0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:23.000 but it wouldn't have been right for me, you know. 0:16:23.040 --> 0:16:24.800 I mean, you wouldn't been able to bring yourself in 0:16:24.800 --> 0:16:26.600 that situation like I can't be me, you know what 0:16:26.600 --> 0:16:28.240 I'm saying, Like you just don't make something. It looks 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:30.520 like I'm just a token dude standing there like you know, 0:16:30.560 --> 0:16:32.480 that's not what I do. You do? Play kicking at 0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:36.280 the dark? What is it? What is it? That was 0:16:36.320 --> 0:16:39.520 my little What happened was I started playing on before 0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:43.120 this thing with the with the the quarantine happened. I 0:16:43.160 --> 0:16:46.760 was playing on i G, Periscope and Facebook Live from 0:16:46.760 --> 0:16:50.160 two thousand and fifteen to two thousand and eighteen. What 0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:52.480 I would do is I would sit there and play 0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:55.320 with I started. I started in my crib. I played 0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:56.800 beats and stuff like that. So one day I was 0:16:56.840 --> 0:16:57.840 in the crib, I was like, you know, I was 0:16:57.920 --> 0:16:59.320 bored as hell. One day I just said, you gonna 0:16:59.320 --> 0:17:01.560 cut the camera at the came on and people just 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:03.880 like the beasts they were hearing. Now see all these 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:06.840 chicks on them. So I did it again. So I 0:17:06.880 --> 0:17:09.199 just created a show called the Black Party Live Mixtape 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:12.119 where I just played crazy craziness right, but it's not 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:14.159 me DJ, and it's just me playing on the computer, 0:17:14.240 --> 0:17:17.119 just sitting the button joints coming on time, and it 0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:18.960 worked me talking to my ship and do what I do. 0:17:19.720 --> 0:17:21.560 So I see all these women up there. One day 0:17:21.600 --> 0:17:22.920 I said, you know, I got to create a show 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:24.720 for the women. I said, what y'all think? And one 0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:27.920 woman said we should name it No Pants Sundays. I said, 0:17:27.920 --> 0:17:31.320 now we're gonna call it No Panty Sundays. Bag got 0:17:31.359 --> 0:17:34.000 Sunday I did the first show. I had maybe sixty 0:17:34.400 --> 0:17:38.400 women up there looking at this thing. So every Sunday 0:17:38.440 --> 0:17:40.560 I would do No Panty Sundays. Every Wednesday I would 0:17:40.560 --> 0:17:42.920 do Black Party Live Mixtape. Never asked for a dollar, 0:17:43.080 --> 0:17:46.480 never asked for This is me and my my basement 0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:52.639 doing it live in front of you know, and started 0:17:52.640 --> 0:17:54.520 on Paris Scope first. Then I started going to I 0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:56.840 Live and Paris Scope, and I added Facebook Live and 0:17:56.880 --> 0:17:59.120 I had all three cameras set up. So I'm doing 0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:02.880 this from two thousand and fifteen to two thousand and eighteen. 0:18:03.080 --> 0:18:06.399 When two thousand and eight team ran around Serious seeing 0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:09.000 what I was doing on there, and you know, I 0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:11.399 wouldn't go back to regular radio because I feel like 0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:14.639 I couldn't beat me at regular radio. No, no knocking, 0:18:14.640 --> 0:18:17.879 It's just that for me, I needed yourself. I don't know, 0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:19.840 but no, no, no, I've never been on hot, never 0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:22.119 been on power there. I asked me years ago to 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:24.879 be on there, but the road. I was trying to, 0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:26.800 you know, be in the road to do my feuple 0:18:26.840 --> 0:18:32.520 of times. Yeah, so they came into Serious seeing what 0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:36.160 I was doing, saying how hot it was. It was like, yo, 0:18:36.240 --> 0:18:38.040 coming serious. Do you do your things? Do your block 0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:40.520 party thing? You know, that's something called the block party. 0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:43.040 And uh, I'll do the first four hours where I 0:18:43.119 --> 0:18:45.840 played early nineties and two thousands, and that the last 0:18:45.840 --> 0:18:47.920 two hours I'll play everything new and old and mix 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:50.400 it up. And that's how I've seen radio. I see 0:18:50.480 --> 0:18:52.480 radio as it shouldn't be a thing where it's the 0:18:52.520 --> 0:18:54.239 same thing all the time. It should be colors too, 0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:56.119 It should be things where you don't expect. So it 0:18:56.200 --> 0:18:58.560 worked out. I've been doing it for five years and 0:18:58.720 --> 0:19:00.040 as don't when I could play them on me is 0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:02.359 going my joint and then you know, there's no limitations. 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:05.000 I could just do what I feel and you know, 0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:09.480 so with that that happened. The Kendrick cam album came 0:19:09.520 --> 0:19:13.480 that that year, the two Pac movie came that year, 0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:17.520 of a few other things, but it all came from 0:19:17.520 --> 0:19:21.040 me sitting they're doing the thing on on on the 0:19:21.160 --> 0:19:25.360 on in my basement on the net. So after two 0:19:25.359 --> 0:19:27.360 thousand and eighteen, I stopped because I wanted to drive 0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:31.520 everybody to serious m you know. Yeah, But it worked out, 0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:33.800 and then the Quarantine hitt and I came back for 0:19:33.800 --> 0:19:36.040 a little while. But that's that. That was. That was 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:38.159 actually an ill thing too, because when I heard the 0:19:38.200 --> 0:19:40.199 Kendrick Lamar album and got to hear you on it, 0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:42.520 and I was like, damn, like, you know, for him 0:19:42.640 --> 0:19:45.760 to the West coast, lyrical guys a big up a 0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:48.840 East coast, you know, DJ, you would think that he 0:19:48.880 --> 0:19:50.920 was shot out like felli foul or like you know 0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:53.200 what I'm saying. I said that to him, I said, 0:19:54.400 --> 0:19:58.480 you got battle cat out there. You have why you 0:19:58.480 --> 0:20:00.639 didn't get them? These dudes a le just like you know. 0:20:00.720 --> 0:20:02.520 He was like, No, they're my boys and my brothers. 0:20:02.560 --> 0:20:04.960 They who they are. But I know what you did 0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:08.000 for the music business. I know what you did for 0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:10.439 the DJs. I know what you did how you changed 0:20:10.480 --> 0:20:13.439 the game in the music business. And if people this 0:20:13.520 --> 0:20:16.040 is Kendrick telling me this, we're in the studio.

It was like, 0:22:03.160 --> 0:22:04.840 you know what I'm saying, We did it just yeah. 0:22:04.840 --> 0:22:06.520 I used to come out with the equipment in the rain, 0:22:06.920 --> 0:22:09.399 out in the street just so people could see me. 0:22:10.240 --> 0:22:12.639 You know what I'm saying. When I got on I 0:22:12.680 --> 0:22:15.720 sat on the street corner of a hundred fifty five 0:22:16.080 --> 0:22:19.040 in front of Rutger or a hundred eighth in front 0:22:19.040 --> 0:22:22.320 of Willie's and sold mix tapes, not knowing I was 0:22:22.359 --> 0:22:25.119 gonna get shot robbed. The kind of ships. This is 0:22:25.160 --> 0:22:26.439 in the middle of Holland, and there was a lot 0:22:26.440 --> 0:22:29.760 of ship going on, killings going on. And when I 0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:31.159 was in the s Nut Club, I was with the 0:22:31.720 --> 0:22:34.520 most craziest people that you can imagine in New York, 0:22:34.880 --> 0:22:36.320 you know what I'm saying. But I didn't do the 0:22:36.400 --> 0:22:40.760 things that certain people did. So the way I moved 0:22:40.840 --> 0:22:42.840 made them dudes look at me in a certain kind 0:22:42.880 --> 0:22:45.440 of way and protect us being start out, you know 0:22:45.440 --> 0:22:46.919 what I'm saying. So when I came in that street 0:22:47.240 --> 0:22:50.240 with the with the with the tapes, I was already 0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:53.679 solidified at Harlem, but I wasn't. I wasn't.

I was making tapes. 0:23:21.160 --> 0:23:24.200 I was getting, but I was getting getting. You know 0:23:24.200 --> 0:23:27.080 what I'm saying. You know, it was crazy like every 0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:29.439 day all day to the point where it got me 0:23:29.520 --> 0:23:31.879 to my first album. There that got me to my 0:23:31.920 --> 0:23:34.600 first television show. It got me to my first radio deal, 0:23:34.760 --> 0:23:38.080 first album deal, Sony first album deal was was born 0:23:38.119 --> 0:23:41.600 of brothers, the KICKI pre the tape album Bismarck, Rest 0:23:41.600 --> 0:23:43.879 of Piece. He got me that deal and um, I 0:23:43.880 --> 0:23:45.800 don't even want to album there to tell you the truth. 0:23:45.880 --> 0:23:47.560 He got me that deal because I got hot in 0:23:47.600 --> 0:23:48.920 the street with the mix tapes. He came up on 0:23:49.000 --> 0:23:50.280 me one day I did the show so where he 0:23:50.320 --> 0:23:52.720 came up and pulled up on me in the MP Yeah, 0:23:53.040 --> 0:23:57.240 so you don't get shut up there next to you know, 0:23:57.320 --> 0:24:03.000 I'm in Berry Padell's office, this big money. I'm like, 0:24:03.000 --> 0:24:05.919 oh shit, So we did the album. I'm writing the 0:24:06.000 --> 0:24:07.960 joints in there. I wasn't a rap or nothing like that, 0:24:08.040 --> 0:24:10.840 but I said little rhymes on my mixtapes, and you know, 0:24:10.920 --> 0:24:12.639 it caught up in the street. You know, the tapes 0:24:12.680 --> 0:24:14.320 got really hot, so I guess anything that was on 0:24:14.359 --> 0:24:16.960 the tapes was gonna catch. So I was saying, those 0:24:16.960 --> 0:24:18.800 are the rhymes I was saying on there. I would 0:24:18.800 --> 0:24:22.000 write other stuff. Me and Cooby did the beats. Jan 0:24:22.119 --> 0:24:23.679 came out and went on tour with it. You know, 0:24:23.720 --> 0:24:26.800 it was experienced, but I got the DJ thing is 0:24:26.800 --> 0:24:30.400 what what blew up and that's what made me. That's 0:24:30.400 --> 0:24:32.760 what people know me. As you know. So when I 0:24:32.800 --> 0:24:36.360 did Death Comedy Jam at the time, people they really 0:24:36.359 --> 0:24:39.159 cared about DJs. They looked at DJs as you know, 0:24:39.520 --> 0:24:41.600 he just played records. You know what I'm saying. If 0:24:41.600 --> 0:24:44.080 you wasn't on TV. That's the first television show was 0:24:44.080 --> 0:24:46.560 Death Comedy Jain. It wasn't the first televison show. It 0:24:46.560 --> 0:24:49.080 wasn't on It was the first television show that was minds. 0:24:49.160 --> 0:24:50.320 That was that I was a part of you know 0:24:50.320 --> 0:24:51.760 what I'm saying, But I was always I was doing 0:24:51.800 --> 0:24:55.040 other stuff like that, stuff like that, but the first 0:24:55.080 --> 0:24:56.880 thing that was mine. I was a really a part 0:24:56.960 --> 0:24:59.480 of yours. What exactly do you mean that some of 0:24:59.480 --> 0:25:05.040 the Simmons, Martin, Lawrence, kicking Pre that was the press. No, 0:25:05.160 --> 0:25:09.000 Russell wants the show. But but I was the beginning. 0:25:11.000 --> 0:25:12.600 It's minds too, you know what I'm saying. You think 0:25:12.640 --> 0:25:16.040 of Death Comedy Jam, you think of Russell, Martin, Kicking 0:25:16.080 --> 0:25:20.720 Pre and the comedians, so you know, and the um 0:25:21.840 --> 0:25:24.720 So when that came, that gave me a chance to 0:25:24.920 --> 0:25:29.199 you know, even though you see me five seconds, it 0:25:29.320 --> 0:25:31.560 was so huge and your difference for the DJ too, 0:25:31.680 --> 0:25:35.679 So when you write, you know, yeah, it just opened doors. 0:25:35.680 --> 0:25:38.359 That gave people that didn't care about DJs, you know, 0:25:38.480 --> 0:25:41.160 a chance to see yeah, well all right, and then 0:25:41.160 --> 0:25:44.120 when I comming to their town to do the actual concert, 0:25:44.119 --> 0:25:46.680 then they really see you know, the bulk. They would 0:25:46.760 --> 0:25:49.440 see it like now now, now this is the change 0:25:49.480 --> 0:25:53.040 in the guard. Now here's when the DJ is starting 0:25:53.040 --> 0:25:56.800 to be looked at like an artist. Now because of 0:25:56.800 --> 0:25:59.160 what I did with that television show, what I'm giving 0:25:59.200 --> 0:26:02.640 those mixtapes and that exactly. But I didn't even get 0:26:02.680 --> 0:26:04.560 there yet, and they get there yet. But now we're 0:26:04.600 --> 0:26:06.560 starting to get to the point where now they now 0:26:06.640 --> 0:26:08.399 they gotta pay attention because I'm anna forced to be 0:26:08.400 --> 0:26:11.000 record with on that stage. It doesn't matter what tour 0:26:11.040 --> 0:26:13.439 it is, who you got, how big his record is, 0:26:13.640 --> 0:26:15.760 you get kicked pre on that stage, He's gonna be 0:26:15.840 --> 0:26:17.480 the talk of that show, just as well as that 0:26:17.960 --> 0:26:20.560 platinum rtists. That That was the stance I had to 0:26:20.600 --> 0:26:23.240 take in order for people to take the DJ serious. 0:26:23.800 --> 0:26:26.680 Before that, we were getting paid fifty dollars a hundred dollars. 0:26:26.680 --> 0:26:29.399 If you wasn't behind Jazzy, if you wasn't Jazzy Jeff 0:26:29.400 --> 0:26:33.000 behind Fresh Prince, or you wasn't jam Masson j behind 0:26:33.119 --> 0:26:36.280 Run DMC, or you wasn't ready alert on the radio, 0:26:36.440 --> 0:26:39.359 which radio stations around the country wasn't playing We're playing 0:26:39.400 --> 0:26:41.600 hip hop. So if you had that job, you were special. 0:26:41.960 --> 0:26:44.120 You know I'm saying. If you wasn't that, you wasn't 0:26:44.119 --> 0:26:47.000 looked at as you know this great thing, and I'm 0:26:47.080 --> 0:26:49.199 sitting there like, yo were all great, this is an 0:26:49.400 --> 0:26:52.080 art like how they going like nah? So I had 0:26:52.119 --> 0:26:53.919 to take the stance I took. I gotta pay me 0:26:53.960 --> 0:26:56.359 a certain way. You ain't putting me in no corner, 0:26:56.359 --> 0:26:59.280 on no stage, center stage and gonna RiPP the building 0:26:59.280 --> 0:27:01.280 down if you if I'm packing this building, the same 0:27:01.280 --> 0:27:03.560 building that you're paying this guy that only got two records, 0:27:04.280 --> 0:27:06.159 he only come on stage for a half hour to 0:27:06.240 --> 0:27:09.000 rock out, and I'm there for two hours destroying the spot. 0:27:09.119 --> 0:27:10.920 And you're gonna pay me the same way you're paying him. 0:27:11.000 --> 0:27:12.719 You're gonna treat me the same way you're treating them. 0:27:12.720 --> 0:27:14.640 And if you're not give it to somebody else, you'll 0:27:14.680 --> 0:27:17.520 be back around. Because you have to know your value. 0:27:17.520 --> 0:27:18.879 You know, I have to. You have to take that 0:27:18.960 --> 0:27:21.320 serious and if know, if you don't, nobody else will. 0:27:21.359 --> 0:27:23.280 And that's what happened to where it changed the garden. 0:27:23.320 --> 0:27:25.760 Then I made the first album of his kind of 0:27:25.840 --> 0:27:28.640 soundtrack to the streets, you know what I'm saying, where 0:27:28.640 --> 0:27:30.480 I had J and Nahas and this one and that 0:27:30.600 --> 0:27:32.000 went on the air. I was able to do that, 0:27:32.200 --> 0:27:35.040 the first to make the kid to pre take album 0:27:35.440 --> 0:27:37.320 a DJ as a rapper. So I did a lot 0:27:37.320 --> 0:27:40.080 of things. You know, we're innovating to help the DJ 0:27:40.440 --> 0:27:45.040 move forward. But if you go back again. Who's inspiring 0:27:45.080 --> 0:27:48.160 you to do tapes to to DJ? Who's the beginning 0:27:48.200 --> 0:27:50.520 of all this too?

It was a crazy time. 0:30:07.080 --> 0:30:08.640 But I did that for a year and a half 0:30:08.800 --> 0:30:12.240 with Star and you know what, I'm glad I did it, 0:30:12.680 --> 0:30:15.120 you know what I'm saying. And that's why my first 0:30:15.120 --> 0:30:18.360 record on my first album was called the Apollo. It's 0:30:18.400 --> 0:30:22.280 about salute and hallom and uptown. And now my record 0:30:22.320 --> 0:30:25.000 Uptown was the same thing, to go back and salute 0:30:25.000 --> 0:30:27.520 the people that helped me up. You know. So I'm 0:30:27.520 --> 0:30:30.040 not I may not agree with what they might have 0:30:30.040 --> 0:30:32.320 been doing at the time, but I wouldn't talk down 0:30:32.320 --> 0:30:33.840 on it because those are the ones that was buying 0:30:33.880 --> 0:30:35.440 the tapes. They are the ones that kept my name 0:30:35.480 --> 0:30:40.360 out there. So it was that, like how Stripper is 0:30:40.400 --> 0:30:43.440 the A and os for UM, like like um strip 0:30:43.440 --> 0:30:45.640 club music, Drug Dealers was the A and off for 0:30:45.760 --> 0:30:50.840 UM for New York music. For the st Yeah, my 0:30:50.880 --> 0:30:54.400 mixtapes was the soundtrack. Was the soundtrack to those type 0:30:54.440 --> 0:30:56.360 of people. You know what I'm saying. When you when 0:30:56.360 --> 0:30:58.200 they drove down a FA avenue and they heard their 0:30:58.240 --> 0:31:00.240 names screaming out on the tape, it meant so much 0:31:00.240 --> 0:31:02.120 to them, you know what I'm saying. And then the 0:31:02.160 --> 0:31:05.840 type of the type of music that I was bringing 0:31:05.840 --> 0:31:08.960 out as the music that people like what it wasn't 0:31:09.000 --> 0:31:10.640 just me, it was me. It was start Shot, it 0:31:10.720 --> 0:31:13.320 was Booty be was you know that type of music. 0:31:13.720 --> 0:31:16.000 I pulled a lot to the game start Shot boils 0:31:16.040 --> 0:31:17.880 out of the game Booty Boil out to you. But 0:31:17.960 --> 0:31:20.520 that type of music made the street people feeling. So 0:31:20.560 --> 0:31:22.719 it was like a It was just like a feeling. 0:31:22.760 --> 0:31:26.720 They had that certain kind of music. It was their soundtrack. 0:31:26.880 --> 0:31:28.720 It was the soundtrack. That's why I named my album 0:31:28.800 --> 0:31:32.160 soundtrack the Streets my second album, UM. When I did 0:31:32.160 --> 0:31:34.880 that because I gave them the soundtrack for so long 0:31:35.520 --> 0:31:38.720 with the mixtapes, and when I put this album together, 0:31:38.840 --> 0:31:40.320 it was like I was kind of almost doing it 0:31:40.360 --> 0:31:41.920 that way, but in a in a different way. I 0:31:41.920 --> 0:31:44.040 wasn't trying to be like a DJ on the on 0:31:44.080 --> 0:31:45.880 the album, I was a produce. I was looking more 0:31:45.960 --> 0:31:48.040 like I was trying to be a Quincy Jones. And 0:31:48.080 --> 0:31:51.200 at the time, Quincy Jones had called me to come 0:31:51.240 --> 0:32:01.120 in to do his album and you just said that, well, 0:32:01.200 --> 0:32:06.600 Criscy Jones, he did accused you joint album. He asked 0:32:06.600 --> 0:32:08.680 me to come and start the album off with Stevie 0:32:08.680 --> 0:32:10.760 One and Ray Challs. So I did the first record 0:32:10.800 --> 0:32:13.240 with Stevie Wanning, Ray Charles Abano. It's called at the 0:32:13.280 --> 0:32:15.280 Good Times Roll. So I'm sitting there in the studio 0:32:15.320 --> 0:32:18.080 with Crincy Jones and Rod Templeton. I'm in the middle 0:32:18.080 --> 0:32:20.200 of the Rod Templetons to do that Wark wrote off 0:32:20.280 --> 0:32:22.640 the wall out for Michael Jackson. I'm sitting there between them. 0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:24.479 They got their arms around me. I'm looking at him 0:32:24.520 --> 0:32:27.480 like looking let him like, disn't gonna kid, this is 0:32:27.520 --> 0:32:29.479 what I want you to do. And he's telling me 0:32:29.560 --> 0:32:31.719 this stuff when I'm standing there saying, yo, look at 0:32:31.720 --> 0:32:34.200 the money that I'm sitting in between. Just the fact 0:32:34.240 --> 0:32:39.240 that I'm in between these dudes. You know, sometimes we 0:32:38.960 --> 0:32:42.600 we we all we get these looks and we get 0:32:42.640 --> 0:32:45.560 these accolades. We don't really look at how special it 0:32:45.600 --> 0:32:47.880 is because we always get in accolade. So it's like 0:32:47.920 --> 0:32:51.080 a thing we used to But I seeing pinpoint each 0:32:51.120 --> 0:32:53.600 thing for what it is. And to sit there to 0:32:53.720 --> 0:32:57.920 be called from Quincy Jones, first of all, let's not 0:32:58.080 --> 0:33:00.000 to get to get into the studio, just to be called. 0:33:00.240 --> 0:33:03.760 To have that in his mind, that is everything. Then 0:33:03.840 --> 0:33:06.320 to be sitting there between him, you know. And then 0:33:07.160 --> 0:33:11.760 he asked me to come to his uh party's birthday party. Right, 0:33:11.920 --> 0:33:13.520 I go to his birthday party. As soon as I 0:33:13.600 --> 0:33:18.360 get to the door, Oprah Winfrey, it's right there, she goes, Oh, 0:33:18.480 --> 0:33:21.800 that goes to my baby kid, capret, my man's I 0:33:21.800 --> 0:33:23.640 got two of my dudes with me, my man, Doug, you, 0:33:23.720 --> 0:33:25.440 my man. I see they looked at each other like 0:33:25.600 --> 0:33:28.360 kiss because they bugger. They from the blockday O be 0:33:28.400 --> 0:33:30.440 around this stuff. So they see Open Winfrey saying that 0:33:30.480 --> 0:33:31.720 I was buggy because I don't even know what she 0:33:31.800 --> 0:33:34.200 knew me, but she said that, so that me her 0:33:34.280 --> 0:33:37.200 Brandy took a picture hung out. Quincy took me to 0:33:37.320 --> 0:33:39.840 his case where he had fifty five Grammys in the case. 0:33:39.960 --> 0:33:43.000 This isn't his party, this is fifty five grammys. We 0:33:43.160 --> 0:33:45.720 try to get one. He got fifty five in the case. 0:33:45.720 --> 0:33:47.920 And this is back then. So the dude was big, 0:33:48.040 --> 0:33:49.800 very influential to me, and that's what I wanted to be. 0:33:49.920 --> 0:33:51.880 So when I did soundtrack, and that's how I was 0:33:51.880 --> 0:33:55.240 thinking of being the Quincy Jones and hip hop. So 0:33:55.280 --> 0:33:57.240 at what point you and start y'all stopped making the 0:33:57.280 --> 0:34:01.200 tapes together once I started, Once I left it, ask 0:34:01.440 --> 0:34:04.080 um anything I ever do. I didn't even want to 0:34:04.080 --> 0:34:07.760 be stuck right the set the tapes was a stepping 0:34:07.800 --> 0:34:10.920 stone for me. When Hot ninty seven asked me to 0:34:11.000 --> 0:34:13.440 come and do Hot nanty seven, I told him no, 0:34:13.880 --> 0:34:16.160 not because there wasn't the number one station. It was 0:34:16.200 --> 0:34:18.480 because there was the number one station. They didn't need 0:34:18.480 --> 0:34:21.799 me them saying already had what was going on. Plus 0:34:21.880 --> 0:34:23.520 I wanted to be in the world. It's before the 0:34:23.560 --> 0:34:26.160 any keep in mind, this before the internet. So I'm 0:34:26.160 --> 0:34:30.759 doing two two shows around the country. I wanted to 0:34:30.760 --> 0:34:33.080 touch Mississippi. I wanted to touch Florida. I went to 0:34:33.080 --> 0:34:35.360 touch California. I want to touch these people and let 0:34:35.440 --> 0:34:37.239 them see what New York was and how we could 0:34:37.239 --> 0:34:39.600 bring New York to y'all and make y'all happy and 0:34:39.680 --> 0:34:42.000 still be able to do what y'all like. In Houston, 0:34:42.040 --> 0:34:44.480 they got music that they loved that nobody ever heard. 0:34:45.200 --> 0:34:47.360 When when when you go there and you know that music, 0:34:47.480 --> 0:34:49.880 you become so much bigger, And that's what happened with me. 0:34:49.920 --> 0:34:51.360 I would go to St. Louis. I would go to 0:34:51.440 --> 0:34:54.000 these different places to make sure that the main DJ 0:34:54.120 --> 0:34:56.320 out there, you know what's going on. It was popping 0:34:56.920 --> 0:34:59.480 okay because of my show. Will make sure we blow 0:34:59.520 --> 0:35:01.279 you up out because you all the men do it 0:35:01.320 --> 0:35:02.759 in the city. So I'm gonna make sure we keep 0:35:02.760 --> 0:35:05.040 the light on you. You know what I'm saying, because 0:35:05.080 --> 0:35:08.360 a lot of dudes at times, the promoters are come 0:35:08.400 --> 0:35:10.160 and get get me to come to the show, and 0:35:10.239 --> 0:35:12.160 that main DJ in that city was saying, Yo, I'm 0:35:12.200 --> 0:35:13.680 the hottest do it out here. Why you gotta get 0:35:13.719 --> 0:35:16.200 kicking free? And there the promoters say, sit down and 0:35:16.239 --> 0:35:19.399 watch him. Sit there and watch, and then that DJ 0:35:19.600 --> 0:35:21.799 watch and see that first show, and then I come 0:35:21.840 --> 0:35:24.080 back and do another show. And you see that show 0:35:24.080 --> 0:35:26.120 and how I ripped the mud hole in this place. 0:35:26.160 --> 0:35:28.040 And now when I come back, that DJ is doing 0:35:28.040 --> 0:35:30.880 me At that show. He never talked on the microphone, 0:35:31.200 --> 0:35:33.440 He never played records quick or the way I played. 0:35:33.719 --> 0:35:36.680 He never played those type of records. But when I 0:35:36.719 --> 0:35:39.000 come back, that's what he's doing. Now imagine them. I'm 0:35:39.000 --> 0:35:42.239 going all around the world and everywhere I go, all 0:35:42.280 --> 0:35:44.839 the DJs is doing that. Before that day wasn't doing that, 0:35:45.280 --> 0:35:47.520 you know what I'm saying. So that was my contribute, 0:35:47.680 --> 0:35:51.680 my contribution to music that you know, to help the 0:35:51.800 --> 0:35:54.319 DJ move along, you know what I'm saying. And it 0:35:54.400 --> 0:35:56.640 was it was always about looking at the DJ as 0:35:56.680 --> 0:35:58.719 an artist. It was never about just me. It's never 0:35:58.760 --> 0:36:01.080 about me, and he showed I do. It's never about me. 0:36:01.120 --> 0:36:03.640 It's always about the crowd. I take myself and look 0:36:03.680 --> 0:36:07.800 at look at this. If I'm in the crowd watching myself, 0:36:07.960 --> 0:36:10.239 and what would make me want to come back to 0:36:10.239 --> 0:36:13.160 see me again, what would make me feel good watching 0:36:13.200 --> 0:36:15.240 me again? What would make a promoter want the book 0:36:15.280 --> 0:36:17.759 be again? You know what I'm saying. And that's what 0:36:17.880 --> 0:36:20.040 makes me go so hard, because it's not about me, 0:36:20.080 --> 0:36:27.440 it's never been about me. Yeah, yeah, so the rumor 0:36:27.680 --> 0:36:32.520 is right. I'll say his name. Was gonna say his name, 0:36:32.840 --> 0:36:35.799 but um like funk Flex used to not let his 0:36:36.200 --> 0:36:39.440 the DJs that come on before him play certain records. 0:36:39.560 --> 0:36:45.480 Right when I found out something of a normal thing 0:36:45.880 --> 0:36:48.160 like if you if you're if you're the man DJ, 0:36:48.600 --> 0:36:50.920 you tell these dudes you know you can't play this, 0:36:51.000 --> 0:36:52.680 this and that is that? Is that something you've ever 0:36:52.719 --> 0:36:58.400 done and there's a reason for it. If you've seen Technician, 0:36:58.440 --> 0:37:01.280 the DJ that did the joint with the Lot, Technicus 0:37:01.320 --> 0:37:03.160 has been on the rod with me for twenty some years. 0:37:03.680 --> 0:37:06.480 Technique has seen me ripped different places down and do 0:37:06.520 --> 0:37:11.400 different things to where he became so great because it 0:37:11.440 --> 0:37:13.200 wasn't just me, he was other DJs he watched, but 0:37:13.239 --> 0:37:17.040 he seen me on the constant basis do this every show. 0:37:18.480 --> 0:37:20.000 So when he did what he did with the locks, 0:37:20.000 --> 0:37:25.320 I wanted surprise. He's supposed to, right. But the reason 0:37:25.400 --> 0:37:28.719 why my shows are so have so much magnitude to 0:37:28.840 --> 0:37:32.000 it is because I want Like I said, it's not 0:37:32.080 --> 0:37:34.600 about me. I want people to feel better than they 0:37:34.680 --> 0:37:38.560 did before they got did. They can't do that if 0:37:38.560 --> 0:37:41.040 they hear the same song three or four times a night. 0:37:42.160 --> 0:37:44.080 You notice how a lot of parties right now, everybody 0:37:44.160 --> 0:37:46.480 standing around and everybody's in their phone and all that 0:37:46.480 --> 0:37:50.839 that don't happen in my parties. My parties right exactly 0:37:51.040 --> 0:37:55.680 because because they the continuity. It's a continuity that has 0:37:55.719 --> 0:37:57.200 to keep going, has to be a beginning in the 0:37:57.200 --> 0:37:59.160 middle of the end. You have to build people up, 0:37:59.600 --> 0:38:02.160 the saying and it's you against the whole room, for 0:38:02.200 --> 0:38:04.080 the people that you don't even know. You gotta say, 0:38:04.080 --> 0:38:06.279 it's up to you to satisfy everybody in this room 0:38:06.520 --> 0:38:08.880 at one time. So how do you do that? You 0:38:08.920 --> 0:38:10.440 have to be the best you can be, and how 0:38:10.480 --> 0:38:12.560 do you do that is you have to tell a story. 0:38:12.920 --> 0:38:14.799 If you're a DJ that comes in at ten thirty 0:38:14.800 --> 0:38:17.200 at night and nobody drank nothing at ten thirty at night, 0:38:17.280 --> 0:38:19.040 who wants to hear out how this record at ten 0:38:19.120 --> 0:38:23.480 thirty at night? But this DJ is thinking about burning 0:38:23.520 --> 0:38:25.960 the next dude that comes out. He's thinking about himself. 0:38:25.960 --> 0:38:28.440 He's thinking about, let me get as much shot as 0:38:28.520 --> 0:38:31.480 I can. Don't matter about the event, don't matter, it, 0:38:31.560 --> 0:38:34.440 don't matter, none of that. And that's why I bought 0:38:34.440 --> 0:38:37.239 a DJ. Of course, the country with me everywhere I 0:38:38.120 --> 0:38:40.759 who open up. I'm paying this dude. I'm paying for 0:38:40.840 --> 0:38:43.719 his hotel. I'm he's seeing it. You know, that's bread 0:38:43.760 --> 0:38:45.520 I can keep in my pocket, But I care about 0:38:45.520 --> 0:38:48.200 my crowd so much that I'll lose that bread to 0:38:48.320 --> 0:38:51.080 make sure that every show is right. You don't hear 0:38:51.120 --> 0:38:54.360 the same song and one night because we have so 0:38:54.440 --> 0:38:56.080 much music to play in the way we played, it's 0:38:56.080 --> 0:38:58.360 gonna be so crazy you ain't gonna miss it. But 0:38:58.400 --> 0:39:00.319 even if they did play the record before for you 0:39:00.600 --> 0:39:03.440 and you played the same record, it it doesn't the 0:39:03.480 --> 0:39:06.640 way that the showman ship that you had those DJs 0:39:06.640 --> 0:39:10.680 didn't have it. Yeah, it really doesn't doesn't matter, but 0:39:10.719 --> 0:39:13.040 it takes the way of impact that I'm trying to better. 0:39:13.200 --> 0:39:15.440 It's an impact that I want to keep. If you 0:39:15.560 --> 0:39:17.520 heard the song that that you wanted to hear all 0:39:17.640 --> 0:39:19.359 night and then I come and play, it ain't gonna 0:39:19.360 --> 0:39:22.919 be the same impact now, same thing, vice versa. Let's 0:39:22.920 --> 0:39:25.160 say it's me opening up for you, which is very rare, 0:39:25.200 --> 0:39:28.799 But let's say that's the case. I'm gonna stay. It's 0:39:28.840 --> 0:39:32.120 about the people. I know that you're the principal. They're 0:39:32.120 --> 0:39:34.080 paying you a certain amount of way to do a 0:39:34.120 --> 0:39:38.320 certain things and look at you would did it before? 0:39:38.400 --> 0:39:40.560 And then it many times like you know what I'm 0:39:40.560 --> 0:39:43.080 saying that, And that's what it's about. It's about knowing 0:39:43.160 --> 0:39:45.759 it's not about you. But who do you open up for? 0:39:45.840 --> 0:39:48.080 And I mean, like I said, it's ver be rare 0:39:48.120 --> 0:39:50.280 that I opened up for anybody, because I'm always headlouted 0:39:50.920 --> 0:39:54.000 who I opened up for. A matter of fact, the 0:39:54.040 --> 0:39:56.480 last one I did, the last one, the last person 0:39:56.560 --> 0:39:58.279 I went before was Mr. The c. We did a 0:39:58.360 --> 0:40:01.719 joint in Brooklyn, Okay, okay, and we missed to see 0:40:02.400 --> 0:40:06.240 his name is the finisher, So it's in this contract. 0:40:06.360 --> 0:40:10.440 It's not as in this contract, but you know that 0:40:10.760 --> 0:40:12.880 it's the respect like I do your day, that's what 0:40:12.880 --> 0:40:15.400 it is. You're the finishing, finish it. You know what 0:40:15.400 --> 0:40:17.279 I'm saying. It's a great DJ On top of that, 0:40:17.520 --> 0:40:19.440 and they're like, he can't follow me, you don't do 0:40:19.480 --> 0:40:21.920 your thing, But I would give them hell in that 0:40:21.960 --> 0:40:24.040 build there's a lot things. You know, you gotta step 0:40:24.080 --> 0:40:26.640 it up. DJ. Did you find out that now it's 0:40:26.680 --> 0:40:30.680 getting million dollars a show? How do I feel? What? Like? 0:40:31.000 --> 0:40:32.919 How do you feel about that? Yeah? Like you didn't 0:40:32.960 --> 0:40:36.120 hear these DJ's is now and they're technically not playing 0:40:36.160 --> 0:40:38.480 records some of them. Some of them are playing sounds 0:40:38.560 --> 0:40:46.239 daring different. I'm gonna say if you if you about 0:40:46.360 --> 0:40:49.239 d M, yeah, obviously honestly, if you told my d M, 0:40:49.920 --> 0:40:52.680 E d M is big no matter who plays it, 0:40:52.680 --> 0:40:55.239 it's the music that it's the music itself. You know, 0:40:55.360 --> 0:40:58.319 you got the words kids like exactly. It could being 0:40:58.320 --> 0:41:01.839 a drugs themselves. It could be that, it could be, 0:41:02.040 --> 0:41:05.960 it could be it's the music for I remember A 0:41:06.080 --> 0:41:08.239 Corn said to me, your kid, you can go to 0:41:08.280 --> 0:41:11.320 Europe and sell out conscience by yourself in the arenas 0:41:12.200 --> 0:41:14.120 because there's DJs out there, they don't have no name 0:41:14.400 --> 0:41:16.200 that's doing it with the E d M music, or 0:41:16.280 --> 0:41:19.440 you got to do start making dan music. It's not 0:41:19.480 --> 0:41:21.000 what I do. I do it. I can make it, 0:41:21.560 --> 0:41:24.920 but I will make it for somebody else. Absolutely, I 0:41:24.960 --> 0:41:27.320 can't make anything. I can't made any kind of music, 0:41:27.320 --> 0:41:29.719 and that's why I do. That's why I produced.

When Madonna asked me 0:41:33.600 --> 0:41:44.200 to produce her joint, I not know my daughter reached 0:41:44.239 --> 0:41:48.839 out to do something for her M D M A album. 0:41:48.880 --> 0:41:52.960 I did a record call Madonna's Madonna. Nobody may not 0:41:53.080 --> 0:41:54.840 say nothing bad about Madonna, that's how but not a 0:41:54.880 --> 0:42:00.960 boss me right, no finger pop going on. But she 0:42:01.040 --> 0:42:03.360 gave me a big bag for this record that she 0:42:03.400 --> 0:42:07.040 wanted me to do, right called Masterpiece. I did the 0:42:07.040 --> 0:42:11.640 record done, then she asked me to do She did 0:42:11.680 --> 0:42:14.880 the record with Nicki Minaj right that was out, and 0:42:14.960 --> 0:42:17.960 she paid L M F A yo to do the remix. 0:42:18.520 --> 0:42:21.480 But then she paid me the same amount of money 0:42:21.560 --> 0:42:25.640 she paid me for the Masterpiece record to see what 0:42:25.680 --> 0:42:29.120 I was gonna do with the Nicki Minaj. And she 0:42:29.320 --> 0:42:33.240 never got the record. She never heard the record, never 0:42:33.280 --> 0:42:36.760 received the record, never got the record, and she paid 0:42:36.760 --> 0:42:42.360 me this money. The record never came out and played it. 0:42:42.719 --> 0:42:45.239 You never set the record in. They never asked for 0:42:45.239 --> 0:42:47.080 the record. I even couldn't even getting touched with him. 0:42:48.480 --> 0:42:51.440 Two big bags paid you and got away from you 0:42:51.520 --> 0:42:58.200 like as if they but Donna's the ship got never 0:42:58.280 --> 0:43:00.480 talked bad about. Let me just say, you know, I 0:43:00.520 --> 0:43:03.680 know when Donna's a gangster. She had the same face 0:43:03.760 --> 0:43:06.960 on when she was hanging out with Kanye A b 0:43:07.480 --> 0:43:09.520 and Mayweather as she had on when she hung out 0:43:09.520 --> 0:43:11.880 with Tupac. It's the same exact face. I said. She 0:43:12.040 --> 0:43:18.799 knows how to turn on if my face on a legend. 0:43:21.920 --> 0:43:25.399 So um, yeah, let's do quick time. Let's do quick time, 0:43:25.680 --> 0:43:26.960 all right, So we don't know if you know, you 0:43:26.960 --> 0:43:28.640 want to explain the rules? Come on, because I always 0:43:28.680 --> 0:43:31.399 sucking up. The rules are, he's gonna get your two 0:43:31.480 --> 0:43:37.600 names if you politically correctly and answer the question drinking. 0:43:37.640 --> 0:43:40.960 So that means if you say both or neither, we're drinking. 0:43:41.000 --> 0:43:45.080 You're drinking. We're all drinking. But if you if you 0:43:45.200 --> 0:43:51.800 say you made easy, it's one of the other, nobody's drinks. 0:43:51.840 --> 0:43:54.840 If you pick one, you pick both or neither, we 0:43:54.920 --> 0:43:59.640 all drink.

I talked 0:55:22.760 --> 0:55:24.600 on the radio and then I played the song and 0:55:24.680 --> 0:55:30.000 you see them one the season one season the first 0:55:30.760 --> 0:55:34.000 arm and Babbio played it. They played it on the 0:55:34.239 --> 0:55:36.640 underground radio, but I think I think they they was 0:55:36.680 --> 0:55:38.200 the first to play it on underground and I was 0:55:38.239 --> 0:55:41.839 the first to play it on the Manastrement commercials. That's 0:55:41.840 --> 0:55:44.520 crazy saying you broke ut clan. It wasn't because of 0:55:44.560 --> 0:55:50.839 you because of me. You played it, you heard it? Yeah, 0:55:51.040 --> 0:55:53.320 and what did you think hearing that? It was crazy 0:55:53.320 --> 0:55:55.640 because that was something brand new. But I ain't expect 0:55:55.719 --> 0:55:57.920 him to be blow up like me and fifty. Me 0:55:58.000 --> 0:56:00.759 and fifty was set was all the same label at 0:56:00.760 --> 0:56:02.719 the same time. I did. I produced Rowdy Rowley for 0:56:02.800 --> 0:56:06.000 fifty right. I knew he was God. I knew it was. 0:56:06.320 --> 0:56:08.000 I wanted him on my album. As a matter of fact, 0:56:08.000 --> 0:56:09.319 I don't know what happened. I don't know what track 0:56:09.400 --> 0:56:11.640 Rasses did. Don't know what happened, But I wasn't that time. 0:56:11.640 --> 0:56:14.360 It's a freestyle with fifty, It's me, you that's in 0:56:14.440 --> 0:56:18.040 my session. That was right. He was on album. It 0:56:18.120 --> 0:56:20.120 was my punt. You did the red call the block 0:56:20.160 --> 0:56:22.440 part right. But I want a fifty or album. But 0:56:22.600 --> 0:56:24.359 I don't know what happened, But I end up doing 0:56:24.360 --> 0:56:27.320 a rally rally for fifty. I had no idea. I 0:56:27.440 --> 0:56:29.520 knew it was incredible, but I didn't know what he 0:56:29.600 --> 0:56:31.680 was going to this level. You know what I'm saying. 0:56:31.680 --> 0:56:34.600 I see that. You know what I'm saying. Maybe I 0:56:34.600 --> 0:56:37.759 should have, but that dude, he really evinly worked. You 0:56:37.880 --> 0:56:41.040 drawing the same parallels when you heard who, you didn't 0:56:41.040 --> 0:56:42.680 know it was gonna go. I didn't know it was 0:56:42.719 --> 0:56:44.600 gonna be like I know what's a hit, but I 0:56:44.680 --> 0:56:48.000 don't know. I didn't. I don't. You can't never predict 0:56:48.080 --> 0:56:50.439 how big somebody's gonna get, you know what I'm saying. 0:56:50.520 --> 0:56:52.840 But I know when somebody says your kid is just 0:56:52.960 --> 0:56:55.120 a hit, I can predict it. I can say, yeah, 0:56:55.239 --> 0:56:57.439 that's it. And I did that for a lot of Jack. 0:56:57.560 --> 0:56:59.680 I got so many gold plaques and gold awards and 0:56:59.719 --> 0:57:03.120 all that come from that. You know what I'm saying. Okay, 0:57:04.160 --> 0:57:08.680 Kendrick or j Cole, I'm gonna say, Kendrick only because 0:57:08.800 --> 0:57:17.840 k J. Cole never came and got me. Kendrick did album, 0:57:18.960 --> 0:57:28.240 podcasts or radio. I say podcasts, but radio makes you 0:57:28.280 --> 0:57:33.360 a superstar. Radio when you get your record played on 0:57:33.400 --> 0:57:36.920 the radio and the DJs is on it and and 0:57:37.120 --> 0:57:39.880 in int the votation that makes you a start. That 0:57:39.960 --> 0:57:42.600 makes you a superstar. Podcast. They always asked me to 0:57:42.640 --> 0:57:44.920 do podcast. My radio show on Serious Sex and Fly 0:57:45.120 --> 0:57:48.320 the Block Party. If you listen to my show, I 0:57:48.400 --> 0:57:51.640 always keep everything positive. You could have did some ship 0:57:51.800 --> 0:57:54.360 last night that was negative. Something can I have you 0:57:54.400 --> 0:57:55.880 could have got the rest of or whatever. I don't 0:57:55.920 --> 0:57:59.760 talk about that. I talk about moving forward, not not 0:58:00.000 --> 0:58:01.840 can anybody that do because we need that. You know 0:58:01.840 --> 0:58:03.920 what I'm saying, But it's just what I choose to 0:58:03.960 --> 0:58:05.680 do so that when people used to ask me, your kid, 0:58:05.680 --> 0:58:08.680 why don't you do your own podcast? That always been 0:58:08.680 --> 0:58:10.479 in my mind do I have to talk down on people? 0:58:11.840 --> 0:58:14.000 And then I realized I didn't, So maybe I might, 0:58:14.120 --> 0:58:17.680 you know, put one together. Never know Doggie style or 0:58:17.720 --> 0:58:22.880 the chronic chronic, because there would be no Doggy style 0:58:23.040 --> 0:58:31.160 problem chronic like that Dr Dre or puff Daddy, take 0:58:31.200 --> 0:58:36.320 a drink, You're want to vote TV God Damn, I'm 0:58:36.400 --> 0:58:39.800 dinking this Japanese del y'all baby, and some of that 0:58:45.880 --> 0:59:02.760 down mhm, DJ Quick or DJ Musty Mustars must Ship. 0:59:03.360 --> 0:59:06.400 I told Mustard wait till you see it publishing checks. 0:59:07.280 --> 0:59:09.400 They had that crazy year of him playing wait till 0:59:09.400 --> 0:59:11.600 you see him Puffic's gonna be crazy, and now he 0:59:11.640 --> 0:59:14.720 lives in a crazy house. But I'm gonna go with 0:59:14.800 --> 0:59:20.280 Quick Quickly because yeah, we've been trying to get quick 0:59:20.320 --> 0:59:24.400 on here as well. Okay, you remember Bernie Max said, 0:59:24.440 --> 0:59:29.520 who do you think you think you? DJ Quick kicking Break? Yeah, Quick, 0:59:30.000 --> 0:59:35.600 that's right, that's right, Djum Juice or New Jack City, 0:59:36.720 --> 0:59:40.160 New Jack City. But aren't you in Juice? No, but 0:59:40.360 --> 0:59:42.800 Juice was in the club that that club that they 0:59:42.880 --> 0:59:45.200 did the Battle Win, that was the powerhouse. I made 0:59:45.240 --> 0:59:48.680 that club big down. That's why they did the movie 0:59:48.680 --> 0:59:53.320 and that club. I love the movie, but the other 0:59:53.400 --> 0:59:57.200 movie was more really there. Yeah, the DJO was up 0:59:57.240 --> 1:00:01.320 on top of the It was like a rail. Yeah. Yeah, 1:00:01.360 --> 1:00:02.920 it was like a rail in the year, and then 1:00:02.960 --> 1:00:04.800 they put people in front of it. They brought something 1:00:04.800 --> 1:00:07.000 money it's to put people in front of it. So yeah, 1:00:07.040 --> 1:00:09.400 it was dope. But New Jack City, I think was 1:00:10.000 --> 1:00:12.600 hit harder, heal harder than the street. That juice. The 1:00:12.680 --> 1:00:19.240 juice was incredible. But respect or loyalty? Last question, loyalty, 1:00:19.480 --> 1:00:22.320 because loyalty is gonna bring it's automatically respect. If you 1:00:22.400 --> 1:00:27.280 have loyalty to me with me, you respect me, right absolutely. 1:00:27.920 --> 1:00:29.960 We always say that that's the only trick question we 1:00:30.040 --> 1:00:32.640 got here because really that's the only time you should 1:00:32.640 --> 1:00:35.120 be really taking a shot. It's loyalty, respect because I 1:00:35.160 --> 1:00:37.360 think they go hand in hand. And I mean everybody 1:00:37.400 --> 1:00:40.800 has their own perspective, everyone's own perspective. Then yeah, Well 1:00:41.520 --> 1:00:44.160 with my people, people that always been around the circle, 1:00:44.240 --> 1:00:47.520 myself around, you know, there's always been a respect thing. 1:00:47.560 --> 1:00:50.560 It's always been loyalty. My manager been my manager twenty something, 1:00:50.600 --> 1:00:54.760 twenty seven years, twenty six years. Uh, my role manager, Jim, 1:00:54.960 --> 1:00:57.480 he'd been my manager, my role manager for just as long. 1:00:58.320 --> 1:01:00.520 And Jim is this hape of dude. He's trying to 1:01:00.560 --> 1:01:03.360 take being pictures.

Yeah, because that story 1:07:06.760 --> 1:07:08.720 you're talking about. I feel like they still sell a 1:07:08.760 --> 1:07:14.040 car Hard right now. Okay, yep, So I said his 1:07:14.200 --> 1:07:17.680 name earlier. We skipped over it. But at one point 1:07:17.760 --> 1:07:22.280 it felt like you and funk Flex. I don't know 1:07:22.280 --> 1:07:25.560 if it's the wrong ship. I felt like you guys 1:07:25.600 --> 1:07:30.240 couldn't get along listen man, or didn't get along. I 1:07:30.320 --> 1:07:32.040 love gona take a shot. Gonna take a shot for 1:07:32.120 --> 1:07:35.520 this some of that. I'm gonna take a shot. You 1:07:35.760 --> 1:07:38.919 gotta take a shot. I'm taking a shot, alright, coo cool. 1:07:40.040 --> 1:07:42.600 So what happened between you on funk Flex Flex? Let 1:07:42.640 --> 1:07:49.880 me just say that like that, but like that, so 1:07:50.000 --> 1:07:53.320 we're happened. But but but you know, he get a 1:07:53.320 --> 1:07:56.480 little man. I'm a gorilla and this ship, you know 1:07:56.480 --> 1:07:58.400 what I'm saying. And at the end of the day, 1:07:58.600 --> 1:08:02.080 you know, I set a mark in this game. Funk 1:08:02.160 --> 1:08:06.400 funk Flex. What got me mad with Flex was that 1:08:06.560 --> 1:08:11.360 I felt like he was taking his power and mutioning 1:08:11.440 --> 1:08:18.600 in people's faces. If you're a little kid, right and 1:08:18.680 --> 1:08:20.360 you make a record and you put the record down 1:08:20.360 --> 1:08:25.240 and it's doing good, that's going on that, don't get 1:08:25.280 --> 1:08:28.040 in your radio and say, Yo, this is trash over 1:08:28.120 --> 1:08:30.360 the record. You know what I'm saying. That's that's sort 1:08:30.360 --> 1:08:33.240 of respects. So that's what my problem was. But when 1:08:33.280 --> 1:08:36.080 he said, I felt like what happened was we we 1:08:36.280 --> 1:08:38.640 we we had some words. I offered them to you know, 1:08:38.920 --> 1:08:41.720 something happened and then I got on that and say, yo, 1:08:41.760 --> 1:08:44.599 looks batter. It's batter for a hundred thousands. That's batter 1:08:44.640 --> 1:08:47.200 for the name. You lose, you can't use your name again. 1:08:47.360 --> 1:08:50.680 So you was on so you was you can't use 1:08:50.680 --> 1:08:53.439 your name no more. You can't lose. I can't use 1:08:53.479 --> 1:08:56.719 my name if I lose. I felt like I skipped 1:08:56.720 --> 1:09:01.439 over match. So wait a minute, um, y'all talking and 1:09:01.479 --> 1:09:03.760 do you said less battle for honey Grant? But how 1:09:03.800 --> 1:09:05.920 did this know? What happened was somebody had called me 1:09:06.000 --> 1:09:09.560 and say, your kid, Flex's ship doing you on the 1:09:09.640 --> 1:09:12.160 net right on the radio. No, no, none of that. 1:09:12.320 --> 1:09:13.840 You have to put a post up on the net, right. 1:09:14.040 --> 1:09:15.840 I was like, when you're talking about so, I want 1:09:15.840 --> 1:09:17.719 to go look at it. I was like, it said 1:09:17.800 --> 1:09:20.639 it was a picture of him, read alert and uh 1:09:21.040 --> 1:09:27.880 chuck shut out and it said under the caption, uh uh. 1:09:28.280 --> 1:09:31.160 People trying to people try to rewrite history. But I 1:09:31.360 --> 1:09:34.360 was there, I'm like, what I gotta do with me 1:09:34.400 --> 1:09:36.479 I know about history is they can talk about me. 1:09:36.560 --> 1:09:39.439 So I called this person back and at first like na, 1:09:39.880 --> 1:09:41.320 I was like, I was like, nah, he talked about 1:09:41.360 --> 1:09:42.880 He was like, yeah, he is talking about so. Anyway, 1:09:42.880 --> 1:09:45.479 I called Flex right, and I said to flex Flex, 1:09:45.680 --> 1:09:47.960 who are you talking about? And instead of Flex saying 1:09:48.000 --> 1:09:51.519 to me your kid, it was you? Or was this personal? 1:09:51.680 --> 1:09:54.639 Was anybody else? He got crazy with me on the phone. 1:09:54.680 --> 1:09:56.280 He said some crazy shot on the phone, like Yo, 1:09:56.360 --> 1:09:58.479 don't don't if you don't like the way I do things, 1:09:58.560 --> 1:10:00.360 don't talk to me. Don't we ask him who I 1:10:00.479 --> 1:10:02.560 did this with and who that he got crazy with 1:10:02.680 --> 1:10:06.640 the floor You're talking like, I'm thinking he made here 1:10:06.640 --> 1:10:08.680 in the moon with maybe some people in the hot 1:10:08.800 --> 1:10:10.680 night he seventy He's trying to like show them that 1:10:10.760 --> 1:10:12.680 he could talk to me like that some kind of way. 1:10:12.720 --> 1:10:16.760 I don't look, but that's what he did. And the 1:10:16.840 --> 1:10:20.479 next thing, you know, he said he had text the 1:10:20.600 --> 1:10:24.160 text messages that we had talked to each other on 1:10:24.320 --> 1:10:28.280 the net, which I was like, come on yeah, But 1:10:28.400 --> 1:10:31.200 then he said I fell off. So when he said that, 1:10:31.479 --> 1:10:33.240 it was like, okay, now we gotta get that was 1:10:33.320 --> 1:10:35.599 go top. So that's when that's when the problem became. 1:10:36.040 --> 1:10:37.960 When he said I fell off, Like I fell off? 1:10:38.000 --> 1:10:39.880 Why because I'm not getting on everybody nerves on the 1:10:40.000 --> 1:10:42.840 radio station every day or New York. I'm all over 1:10:42.880 --> 1:10:46.000 the over the country, shaking it up, like you don't 1:10:46.000 --> 1:10:47.880 see me every day in New York. There, I fell 1:10:47.960 --> 1:10:50.960 off when you're talking about and I kept a DJ 1:10:51.120 --> 1:10:52.680 when I put my message out, let's keep it on 1:10:52.760 --> 1:10:55.600 some DJ ship. He got personal. So when he did that, 1:10:55.840 --> 1:10:57.960 that's when it got crazy. What do you mean when 1:10:58.000 --> 1:11:00.160 he said he got personal? Because he said I fell off? 1:11:01.240 --> 1:11:02.880 Like why would you say that? That's not the truth? 1:11:03.000 --> 1:11:04.439 Like why would you even put that out there? Why 1:11:04.439 --> 1:11:06.080 would you think that was personal? Why you didn't think 1:11:06.120 --> 1:11:10.880 that because you diagonize you Because yeah, I know that, 1:11:10.960 --> 1:11:12.760 but but but still if you say that the people 1:11:12.800 --> 1:11:16.400 that don't know don't look at it in a negative way. 1:11:16.920 --> 1:11:19.080 I didn't say anything negative. I can't. I just say 1:11:19.120 --> 1:11:21.040 nothing about your girl, your job. I just said nothing 1:11:21.040 --> 1:11:23.760 about your friends. I said something you, let's battle with 1:11:23.920 --> 1:11:27.200 funt of summer chair. Let's go battle for the day, 1:11:27.280 --> 1:11:32.560 battle for her thousands. And I left it dead. But 1:11:32.680 --> 1:11:36.519 he went somewhere else with it. So with that being said, 1:11:36.560 --> 1:11:38.960 it went where went. But at the end of the day, 1:11:39.000 --> 1:11:40.479 the whole time, if people have called me and say, 1:11:40.520 --> 1:11:42.400 oh kid, I need you in the middle of everything 1:11:42.439 --> 1:11:44.080 we were going through, if he would have called me 1:11:44.120 --> 1:11:45.599 and said, oh kid, I need you for anything, I'd 1:11:45.600 --> 1:11:48.960 have been right there no matter what. It wasn't nothing personal. 1:11:49.000 --> 1:11:50.880 It was some dji. It was something, and it was 1:11:50.920 --> 1:11:53.240 good for hip hop. It was good for himpop. I 1:11:53.320 --> 1:11:56.760 was dope. It lit up ship. He caught a lot 1:11:56.840 --> 1:12:00.639 of pressure because I've got somebody at you do suck 1:12:00.680 --> 1:12:03.760 a ship too. I'm not somebody that you shoot on. 1:12:04.000 --> 1:12:06.840 I'm I'm been one that opened the door for DJ 1:12:07.040 --> 1:12:08.600 to do what they're doing now. I'm been when that 1:12:08.880 --> 1:12:11.799 brought the money and the fly ship to the DJ business. 1:12:11.800 --> 1:12:13.400 I'm Benn want to show you how to have style 1:12:13.520 --> 1:12:17.360 and peace and know you're worth you know what I'm saying. 1:12:17.560 --> 1:12:20.040 So I'm not the one you do that with. Promoters 1:12:20.160 --> 1:12:22.880 hired me all over the country. Fans come see me 1:12:22.960 --> 1:12:26.200 and sell out everywhere I go. There's a reason for 1:12:26.280 --> 1:12:28.760 that because it's not just the talent. I don't want 1:12:28.760 --> 1:12:30.840 to treat people. I don't. I don't shoot on people. 1:12:30.880 --> 1:12:33.439 There's not out there that says kick appreciate it on 1:12:33.560 --> 1:12:35.680 people did bad business. But what made you say you 1:12:35.960 --> 1:12:37.599 wanted to battle for a hunder grand? Because he said 1:12:37.640 --> 1:12:40.320 something first, because he went on to set, I fell off. 1:12:40.520 --> 1:12:42.240 So when he said no, no, no, no, I'm sorry. 1:12:43.040 --> 1:12:45.040 What made me say that was because he got smart 1:12:45.080 --> 1:12:48.160 with me on the phone instead of him saying, your kid, 1:12:48.760 --> 1:12:50.920 I wasn't talking about you. Oh yeah, I was talking 1:12:50.960 --> 1:12:55.160 about you, But he said, don't be asking what's going 1:12:55.200 --> 1:12:57.360 on on my phone? On my timeline, don't you know? 1:12:58.000 --> 1:12:59.600 And if I if I can show it went on it, 1:12:59.640 --> 1:13:01.280 don't call about phone no more. You're talking to me 1:13:01.400 --> 1:13:03.519 like he's something me like I ain't when you talk 1:13:03.560 --> 1:13:06.320 to you like that. So when he said that, that's 1:13:06.360 --> 1:13:07.840 when I put up with the post. Your dog will 1:13:07.840 --> 1:13:09.719 be cool. But yeah, let's do it for a hundred thousand, 1:13:10.400 --> 1:13:12.160 let's do it for the name as maths. Just do 1:13:12.200 --> 1:13:13.880 it for the coach. We shouldn't did that supper Jam 1:13:15.200 --> 1:13:18.560 and that was that he got disrespectful and says some 1:13:18.640 --> 1:13:21.400 other things and then they went further. So that's how 1:13:21.479 --> 1:13:24.400 that went. But but I'm gonna say this, funk Master 1:13:24.520 --> 1:13:28.200 Flex is a legend. You can't deny what he did 1:13:28.320 --> 1:13:31.400 with Hotting on the seven. He made that that station 1:13:31.400 --> 1:13:33.599 should be the number one hip hop station in the world, 1:13:34.400 --> 1:13:36.000 you know what I'm saying. So you can't take that 1:13:36.240 --> 1:13:39.439 from him. Let's make sure we don't forget that, you 1:13:39.520 --> 1:13:40.960 know what I'm saying. Let's not get caught up in 1:13:41.080 --> 1:13:44.040 order of them locking and forget that he did do that. 1:13:44.360 --> 1:13:46.240 You know what I'm saying. So shout the funk Flex. 1:13:46.840 --> 1:13:49.200 Got love for him. That right there with some hip 1:13:49.280 --> 1:13:51.880 hop ship is nothing personal. He's one of the greatest ever. 1:13:51.960 --> 1:13:54.599 Did it? Okay, But that's what up, Bigger Funk Flex, 1:13:54.680 --> 1:13:59.720 That's what now. Something I was a little thrown off 1:14:00.040 --> 1:14:08.519 from watching the verses was um, you and scratch back 1:14:08.560 --> 1:14:13.639 and forth. I get that, you know, Chris, I'm calling 1:14:13.800 --> 1:14:17.679 Chris can arrest one and Kane was gonna talk to Ship. 1:14:17.800 --> 1:14:20.040 We knew that part, right, We knew that these are 1:14:20.080 --> 1:14:26.280 the two biggest you know, uh hip hop guys battling 1:14:26.320 --> 1:14:29.960 each other head the head. But then you and Scratch 1:14:30.120 --> 1:14:34.280 also icons and at one point, like he has this 1:14:34.479 --> 1:14:40.920 routine where he's like he's you know, he hasn't scratched, scratched, Yes, 1:14:41.080 --> 1:14:44.800 I'm sorry, they make that clear. He's turning the back, 1:14:45.280 --> 1:14:47.679 and then he goes, you know, sucker, you know, DJ 1:14:47.960 --> 1:14:52.000 kicker free and yeah, you wanna you wanna respond already, 1:14:52.200 --> 1:14:57.120 like all right, let's start here. Kane called me and 1:14:57.280 --> 1:15:02.439 asked me to do versus act old Kine no, because 1:15:02.439 --> 1:15:04.640 I didn't want to be in a battle situation. I 1:15:04.760 --> 1:15:07.760 told Kane, I said, I will do it for both 1:15:07.800 --> 1:15:10.040 of you, you and Chris together. It's never been done 1:15:10.080 --> 1:15:12.120 on on versus before, so I'll do it for both 1:15:12.160 --> 1:15:16.240 of y'all, for both of them. But when he called 1:15:16.280 --> 1:15:18.880 you to ask you to DJ for him for him, right, 1:15:20.000 --> 1:15:22.519 I didn't want to be in a battle situation. Plus, 1:15:22.720 --> 1:15:26.680 being Caress has a as buss as h came do. 1:15:26.800 --> 1:15:29.000 We have a big history with each other, so I 1:15:29.400 --> 1:15:31.640 still didn't want to be in a battle situation like 1:15:31.720 --> 1:15:33.680 I told you earlier, but asked four times to be 1:15:33.760 --> 1:15:36.200 on versus turned it down. So I didn't want to 1:15:36.240 --> 1:15:40.479 be in that type of situation. So when Kate asked me, 1:15:40.520 --> 1:15:43.400 I told him low that. Chris called me baby like 1:15:43.520 --> 1:15:46.720 an hour later and say, y'all what you do versus me? 1:15:47.320 --> 1:15:49.599 I told him though, and I told the reason why. 1:15:49.600 --> 1:15:52.040 I told him though. Then he called me back an 1:15:52.080 --> 1:15:58.000 hour later and he said, yo, Kay has scratched. He 1:15:58.120 --> 1:16:00.040 was like, yeah, we should do it. It's min I 1:16:00.160 --> 1:16:01.320 know you know what I'm saying. I was like, you 1:16:01.360 --> 1:16:05.599 know what if you came cool your let's do it right. 1:16:05.960 --> 1:16:07.040 It's bigger than me, and I got nothing to do 1:16:07.080 --> 1:16:08.439 with me. It's about y'all. Want to see y'all get 1:16:08.439 --> 1:16:09.920 your flowers and everything like that. So I left it 1:16:10.000 --> 1:16:11.320 like there in yourself okay. But I got a call 1:16:11.479 --> 1:16:14.800 k k back to let him know because I told 1:16:14.880 --> 1:16:16.920 him no, I want him to feel no kind of way. 1:16:17.560 --> 1:16:19.920 So called came back, told him I'm gonna do it 1:16:20.000 --> 1:16:21.400 like Chris wanted me to do with. He was like, yo, 1:16:21.479 --> 1:16:23.800 please go do it with Chris. I wanted to be monumental. 1:16:24.880 --> 1:16:26.519 Went to that I was like sure, He's like, yeah, 1:16:26.560 --> 1:16:28.400 cool that he called me back.

Like he knew something was 1:16:41.520 --> 1:16:46.760 hold on, Hold on, hold, this is already. Let me 1:16:46.800 --> 1:16:50.280 go with being scratched being cool for a long time. 1:16:50.439 --> 1:16:52.360 We call each other all the time and all that. 1:16:52.600 --> 1:16:54.400 Like if any show I do, I put them on 1:16:54.560 --> 1:16:56.360 stage with me.

All that, he started 1:17:00.479 --> 1:17:02.600 Scratch Vision. I would come to Scratch Vision helping with 1:17:02.680 --> 1:17:05.040 Scratch Vision. Then like four shows when he came to 1:17:05.120 --> 1:17:07.200 Brooklyn rocked it out. He asked me to do fifty 1:17:07.200 --> 1:17:09.000 two beats out did two in the sixty three beats 1:17:09.040 --> 1:17:14.879 for him. All that right, And soon as I started 1:17:15.360 --> 1:17:18.800 playing music on the net, I've seen the change. One 1:17:18.880 --> 1:17:20.559 day he called me it was like, Yo, you're playing 1:17:20.680 --> 1:17:23.080 music on the net on that ship. That cut off 1:17:23.120 --> 1:17:26.040 every y'all. I'm like And then he called me another 1:17:26.120 --> 1:17:30.360 time and he said something else that was like, so 1:17:30.640 --> 1:17:32.400 I let it fly. But then when it got crazy, 1:17:32.439 --> 1:17:34.080 it was when he started putting stuff on the net. 1:17:34.840 --> 1:17:37.000 He started putting stuff up there. I remember one time 1:17:37.040 --> 1:17:40.160 I had said, up, I have uh put all the 1:17:40.240 --> 1:17:42.240 far needles out first on the on the red on 1:17:42.320 --> 1:17:44.920 the television. He put up. And then he was not 1:17:45.080 --> 1:17:47.080 the first to do all the far needs And I'm like, yeah, 1:17:47.080 --> 1:17:48.200 you could have called me and said that if I 1:17:48.240 --> 1:17:51.280 didn't know that I wasn't the first. I didn't know, 1:17:51.520 --> 1:17:54.400 like I never seen nobody put him up before me. 1:17:54.520 --> 1:17:56.720 But if I wasn't, you could have called my phone. 1:17:56.760 --> 1:17:58.080 We just got the phone with each other. You could 1:17:58.080 --> 1:18:00.439 have called me and told me that. But he didn't 1:18:00.479 --> 1:18:03.560 do that. He did that. Then the second day was 1:18:03.640 --> 1:18:08.120 the cash at thing that happened in the quarantine. He 1:18:08.280 --> 1:18:11.639 went in comment on that. Then it was something else 1:18:11.640 --> 1:18:13.360 and it was, you know, it was something so where 1:18:13.439 --> 1:18:14.960 me and him when just didn't see how the eye 1:18:14.960 --> 1:18:17.880 and I just wasn't sucking with scratch for whatever. And 1:18:18.000 --> 1:18:21.040 then we came to the battle to the versus thing. 1:18:21.360 --> 1:18:24.080 And when the versus state came up, he took it 1:18:24.160 --> 1:18:26.320 a part of himself to try to take the shot 1:18:26.439 --> 1:18:30.439 off of me to put on him, which that wasn't 1:18:30.439 --> 1:18:33.360 a good idea because first of all, I came there 1:18:33.400 --> 1:18:36.280 with good intent. You know what I'm saying, Like, it's 1:18:36.280 --> 1:18:38.760 not about me, It's about Kane and Chris wasn't about me. 1:18:39.360 --> 1:18:41.200 So when he did what he did, he made it 1:18:41.280 --> 1:18:45.680 about him. I got sucker free closer lines. Right, I 1:18:45.800 --> 1:18:48.040 came up there with a Gucci shirt. It was so 1:18:48.200 --> 1:18:51.360 much not about me that I wore a Goocy shirt 1:18:51.360 --> 1:18:53.120 I anywhere, something that I could have warred to the 1:18:53.160 --> 1:18:57.400 world for everybody to see what I'm saying. So I 1:18:57.439 --> 1:18:59.880 don't really like talking about this because I like blowing 1:19:00.000 --> 1:19:01.800 abody there. But he did. He put it out there 1:19:01.840 --> 1:19:04.960 at first. He did it first, so uh for him 1:19:05.000 --> 1:19:07.360 to do that, it was like, I'm not somebody you 1:19:07.400 --> 1:19:10.519 do that for. Listen, Brutch this you can take my 1:19:10.720 --> 1:19:13.120 career and take my talent and take all my abilities 1:19:13.160 --> 1:19:15.519 put to the left. There's nothing doubt there that says 1:19:15.600 --> 1:19:18.080 kick appreciate it all people. There's nothing doubt there that 1:19:18.160 --> 1:19:20.800 says kicking pretty there bad basiness with people. There's nothing 1:19:20.800 --> 1:19:23.680 out there that says kicking people wrong people. So right there, 1:19:23.760 --> 1:19:25.880 you lose. I'm not the person you do that too. 1:19:26.680 --> 1:19:29.200 Whatever your attentions were, whatever you feel like you needed 1:19:29.240 --> 1:19:31.360 to do, I'm not the word you do that too, 1:19:31.400 --> 1:19:35.240 whatever your thoughts were. They're calling me world's greatest DJ. 1:19:36.240 --> 1:19:39.000 They give me the attention I get. I do as 1:19:39.040 --> 1:19:42.519 many shows as I do. Whatever that is, that's something 1:19:42.600 --> 1:19:45.920 that God has placed it by life. That's stuff that's 1:19:45.960 --> 1:19:49.439 not nothing that somebody else can take away or beat. 1:19:50.400 --> 1:19:52.559 Because you get in front of a camera and feel 1:19:52.640 --> 1:19:55.440 like you're gonna shoot on me and this is your opportunity. 1:19:56.240 --> 1:19:59.960 So right there, you lose because of those facts. Because 1:20:00.120 --> 1:20:03.320 I have no smart or my name, you can't win. 1:20:03.800 --> 1:20:06.479 And then if the ship on top of that, you know, 1:20:06.560 --> 1:20:08.519 when I get on that stage, my pressure is gonna 1:20:08.520 --> 1:20:11.040 be different. I don't get if you got sparks flying 1:20:11.080 --> 1:20:14.000 off your turn tables, I'll get what you do on stage. 1:20:14.520 --> 1:20:17.400 Kick pre hits that stage. It's gonna be an event, 1:20:17.920 --> 1:20:20.800 and that's worldwide. That's wherever I going. That's the true 1:20:20.840 --> 1:20:23.599 for that's God give it. That's not me bragging. That's 1:20:23.640 --> 1:20:26.000 what it's been for years. There's no downtime. So I 1:20:26.040 --> 1:20:29.200 didn't understand why he took that opportunity to do that 1:20:29.640 --> 1:20:33.200 or that platform because it didn't work, and then you 1:20:33.360 --> 1:20:36.120 speak afterwards, there's nothing to really talk about. Instead of 1:20:36.280 --> 1:20:39.360 him saying to me, your kid, I apologize for what 1:20:39.479 --> 1:20:41.880 I did that was wrong. I should have did that. 1:20:42.400 --> 1:20:45.080 He go on the net and he puts the video 1:20:45.200 --> 1:20:49.000 out saying that the rob that I said was for Kane, 1:20:49.479 --> 1:20:51.800 which it wasn't. It was for you. What are you 1:20:51.840 --> 1:20:53.880 talking about? You got the timelines mixed up. It was 1:20:53.960 --> 1:20:58.839 for you, said ROB, I said the robot. I stopped 1:20:58.840 --> 1:21:01.240 the rob because it wasn't about me. I didn't mess. 1:21:01.280 --> 1:21:05.000 Somebody started another. I stopped rob because it wasn't about me, 1:21:05.120 --> 1:21:06.800 and I said, you know what, and t about myself 1:21:06.840 --> 1:21:09.080 while I'm saying that it's not about your kids, to 1:21:09.080 --> 1:21:12.360 stop it. Stop. He said that it was about k 1:21:12.600 --> 1:21:15.599 what she wasn't Then he said kick it pre doesn't 1:21:15.680 --> 1:21:19.360 what DJ is the shine. That's why he takes DJs 1:21:19.400 --> 1:21:21.720 on the road with him. Well listen to that, making 1:21:21.840 --> 1:21:24.400 DJ shot like taking this ship and kid do it. 1:21:24.800 --> 1:21:26.640 If I'm taking them on the road and pay them 1:21:26.640 --> 1:21:29.799 on his money and they're going to see the country 1:21:29.880 --> 1:21:31.639 and they're getting in front of these crowds they're making 1:21:31.680 --> 1:21:34.320 them shots because I didn't take you on the road 1:21:34.800 --> 1:21:36.320 with me. You don't need to go on the road me. 1:21:36.439 --> 1:21:38.720 You scratch, But why would you say that? You try 1:21:38.760 --> 1:21:41.280 to put the navative out there like I should. Look, 1:21:41.479 --> 1:21:44.000 you could never ever question what I've done for the 1:21:44.080 --> 1:21:48.040 DJ business ever, nobody cared as far as you know what. 1:21:48.160 --> 1:21:50.719 You could never question what a different music period without 1:21:50.760 --> 1:21:52.840 did something for the way you make me feel. Mixed 1:21:52.880 --> 1:21:55.360 with the impeach the president, that changed the R and 1:21:55.439 --> 1:21:58.439 B game, that changed the all you now had to 1:21:58.520 --> 1:22:01.960 make rob all the artists have the big records over 1:22:02.080 --> 1:22:05.599 all B over a break beat records like Mary. Yeah, 1:22:05.600 --> 1:22:08.080 that was like it changed the whole game. So you 1:22:08.200 --> 1:22:11.479 can't you can die for or what I did for 1:22:11.560 --> 1:22:15.439 the game. And on top of that, I stayed with 1:22:15.640 --> 1:22:18.519 my ear to the street. I stayed with my ear 1:22:18.600 --> 1:22:20.960 to everything that's going or that's why my album that's 1:22:20.960 --> 1:22:25.120 out right now side the way it does. Because I 1:22:25.280 --> 1:22:29.120 refused to be last. I've refused to let somebody tell 1:22:29.200 --> 1:22:32.160 me I'm less dead. But let me let me stop 1:22:32.320 --> 1:22:34.879 for one second. What made you not want to react 1:22:34.960 --> 1:22:37.840 back like when he because I believe because what he 1:22:37.920 --> 1:22:39.720 was trying to do in my opinion, and I was 1:22:39.800 --> 1:22:43.400 I'm outside of looking it, and obviously he's like, you know, sucker, DJ. 1:22:43.680 --> 1:22:45.400 That was like what we used to say back in 1:22:45.439 --> 1:22:48.080 the days, like you know what I'm saying. But I know, 1:22:48.240 --> 1:22:51.560 like anybody who was new, I probably couldn't comprehend that. 1:22:51.880 --> 1:22:54.080 What made you want to keep your cool? And I say, 1:22:54.560 --> 1:22:57.040 you know because I did. If you see my show 1:22:57.080 --> 1:22:59.160 at the beginning of the verses, you see I toured 1:22:59.240 --> 1:23:04.040 the ball plays shretch. You see that there's nothing to 1:23:04.080 --> 1:23:06.040 talk about. After that, I came to do it a 1:23:06.200 --> 1:23:08.240 side of it. D asked me to do it this side, 1:23:08.600 --> 1:23:10.479 and that's what I'm gonna do. It's not about me. 1:23:10.680 --> 1:23:15.240 It's about Caress and Chris, not about me. This is 1:23:15.280 --> 1:23:17.800 not the chance for me to put the shot on me. 1:23:18.120 --> 1:23:20.840 This is about me trying to help my dudes get 1:23:20.920 --> 1:23:24.840 what they deserve. That's where my attentions were. But I came. 1:23:25.240 --> 1:23:26.880 I could have came there with something set up to 1:23:26.920 --> 1:23:29.679 go again, Scratch, was it about that? But you knew 1:23:29.720 --> 1:23:31.240 at one point that he was going to do that 1:23:32.840 --> 1:23:35.680 had before the show started. I came up to the 1:23:35.800 --> 1:23:37.840 stage and say, you Scratch, I love you. We don't 1:23:37.880 --> 1:23:40.080 see how the eye right now, But we got to 1:23:40.080 --> 1:23:42.160 get back to it. I walked away from no balancing 1:23:42.240 --> 1:23:45.080 my heart wrong. So when I went to my dress 1:23:45.080 --> 1:23:49.360 the room, somebody comes back to somebody comes about dressing 1:23:49.360 --> 1:23:52.000 when we say, your scratches garbage up there, like what 1:23:52.080 --> 1:23:54.599 are you talking about? So I got to look at Scratch, 1:23:54.800 --> 1:23:57.360 and Scratches played all the records that he don't play 1:23:57.400 --> 1:23:59.479 the I play. He must have looked at what about 1:23:59.520 --> 1:24:02.439 shows something, and he's playing all the records that I 1:24:02.600 --> 1:24:05.320 played in the role. Then he played my better stretch record. 1:24:07.240 --> 1:24:12.479 Why would you do right? Why would you do that? Like? 1:24:12.800 --> 1:24:14.880 So right there I knew some suckers ship was going on. 1:24:15.439 --> 1:24:17.280 So I'm looking at um like damn, that's how you 1:24:17.360 --> 1:24:20.679 do it, and the crowd is at the standstill. I said, okay, 1:24:20.960 --> 1:24:23.560 So I go on stage and nicked this place, and 1:24:23.600 --> 1:24:27.320 now he had to stand there and watch me. No, no, 1:24:27.720 --> 1:24:29.120 there was none of that ship was in my list 1:24:29.160 --> 1:24:31.360 of what we look like. That's why I was blocked 1:24:31.400 --> 1:24:33.200 out to me like why he was gonna block this? 1:24:33.320 --> 1:24:35.400 So I do understand what he was doing so they 1:24:35.439 --> 1:24:37.840 would not go on stage, and I like this ship 1:24:38.080 --> 1:24:41.000 and both of y'all warming up? Is he's all before me, 1:24:41.120 --> 1:24:45.280 and I said, let me go off versus first, let 1:24:45.400 --> 1:24:48.840 me get anything crazy. He could come and have to 1:24:48.920 --> 1:24:51.760 do his trick ship doing ship making about the show. 1:24:52.280 --> 1:24:54.080 He didn't want to do that. He wanted to go 1:24:54.240 --> 1:24:57.920 first because he was he thought I was playing these records, 1:24:57.960 --> 1:25:00.200 so he thought he was gonna throw me off. What 1:25:00.360 --> 1:25:02.240 are those records of the list of what I was playing? 1:25:03.280 --> 1:25:06.120 But I seen the sucker ship, so that he did that. 1:25:06.320 --> 1:25:08.400 The crowd stared around looking at him, like yo, what 1:25:08.520 --> 1:25:11.160 he's doing? And then I come up and they unite it, 1:25:13.000 --> 1:25:14.800 and then that he had to stay there and watch that. 1:25:14.880 --> 1:25:16.280 Then he had to stay there and watch how I 1:25:16.400 --> 1:25:19.120 was playing the music for Carerest Abong Tide of, he 1:25:19.160 --> 1:25:24.640 was playing the music for Kid Dead Caress kills him. 1:25:25.760 --> 1:25:27.760 Stay in your place, another man tells me to stay 1:25:27.760 --> 1:25:33.720 at my place. We're gonna fight or stage right right 1:25:34.840 --> 1:25:36.720 that the man that you back it up tells you, 1:25:36.800 --> 1:25:39.519 now we doing that. He ship saw you. Yeah, that 1:25:39.600 --> 1:25:44.240 was that was crazy. Kane was like, no, now he 1:25:44.520 --> 1:25:51.360 ship saw a scratch like yo, right, what happened? Particular 1:25:51.400 --> 1:25:54.280 because everyone's watching this watch the verses, so let's say 1:25:54.320 --> 1:25:56.800 what happened was I forgot Scratch was gonna go in 1:25:56.920 --> 1:25:59.120 and do like a whole thing that was assuming was 1:25:59.160 --> 1:26:02.840 going at But Cain was like, Na, no, not even 1:26:02.840 --> 1:26:04.800 because you know Na, and this is the dude that 1:26:04.880 --> 1:26:07.560 you're backing up.

He got caught up and being there 1:27:25.680 --> 1:27:28.080 at a reader and forgot those campuses in his face. 1:27:28.160 --> 1:27:29.680 And my thing was, why would you do that to 1:27:29.720 --> 1:27:33.639 be I'm not to do to do that to help people. 1:27:34.560 --> 1:27:37.040 You know, any time you need me, I'm there. I've 1:27:37.080 --> 1:27:40.200 been there for you, scratched many many times. I asked 1:27:40.200 --> 1:27:41.640 you to come be there for me. You haven't been 1:27:41.680 --> 1:27:44.280 there once to teach you the NPC. I asked you 1:27:44.320 --> 1:27:46.360 to teach you to come do my my internet show 1:27:46.400 --> 1:27:48.400 you never came once every time you asked me to 1:27:48.439 --> 1:27:50.680 be there. I've been there, shout your ship on my 1:27:50.840 --> 1:27:53.400 radio show, Scratch Vision and all that. But you said 1:27:53.479 --> 1:27:56.200 you said something important earlier. You said that, um when 1:27:56.200 --> 1:27:58.040 you reached out to When Kane reached out to you, 1:27:58.200 --> 1:28:00.040 he asked me, well, what's what's going on with you 1:28:00.160 --> 1:28:03.040 and Scratch? Because I told Scratch I don't with k 1:28:03.280 --> 1:28:07.320 that Kane Helm After Kane asked me that. After I 1:28:07.400 --> 1:28:08.760 called came back and told me I was gonna do 1:28:08.800 --> 1:28:11.599 it with Chris, he called me back thirty sex seconds later. 1:28:11.600 --> 1:28:13.280 He was like, Yo, what's going with your Scratch? I 1:28:13.320 --> 1:28:15.200 don't even know how. I don't remember how he knew. 1:28:15.479 --> 1:28:16.880 But then I told him. I was like, Yo, this 1:28:16.960 --> 1:28:18.400 is what happened. He was like, YO, do me a 1:28:18.439 --> 1:28:20.479 favorite man, you know, just let it go. I said, 1:28:20.520 --> 1:28:23.280 you know what, can shoot on me three times. Usually 1:28:23.360 --> 1:28:24.960 didn't get away with that one time, and that's it. 1:28:25.760 --> 1:28:27.519 I was like, you know what, k It's about y'all. 1:28:27.880 --> 1:28:31.000 It's about y'all. It's cool. Now, let's keep it very funky. 1:28:31.160 --> 1:28:33.120 How do I told Scratch or how I told k 1:28:33.760 --> 1:28:35.479 that I was gonna do it? Scratch would have even 1:28:35.520 --> 1:28:38.400 been on the show. Care that's wouldn't have got him, 1:28:39.360 --> 1:28:42.519 So he wouldn't have been on the show. So for 1:28:42.680 --> 1:28:44.120 him to go on there and say that Rome I 1:28:44.280 --> 1:28:46.240 was going it was about Kate. It was like, come on, 1:28:46.439 --> 1:28:49.200 beat this your opportunity to take to try to shoot 1:28:49.200 --> 1:28:50.920 on me in front of the world. Really, why would 1:28:50.920 --> 1:28:52.200 you do that me? You would do that be on 1:28:52.240 --> 1:28:56.760 the phone every other day. But it shows you that 1:28:56.880 --> 1:28:58.840 you never know where it's gonna come from first, and 1:28:58.920 --> 1:29:00.920 it's nothing new. I think a wa do the ship forever. 1:29:00.960 --> 1:29:03.040 I put out south ttrack to the Streets with J 1:29:03.280 --> 1:29:05.360 and Nas and this one, and DJs wouldn't play my 1:29:05.439 --> 1:29:06.880 records on the album or the record you was on 1:29:06.920 --> 1:29:09.240 the album. They would play my records on the radio 1:29:09.720 --> 1:29:12.000 because they don't want to see kick and pre getting 1:29:12.000 --> 1:29:15.120 no further. Kid got hard, Kick get big. And it's 1:29:15.200 --> 1:29:18.320 stupid because you DJ's, I'm saying this ship to you. 1:29:18.400 --> 1:29:21.000 Let me win a cab bat say to your cavil 1:29:21.720 --> 1:29:27.240 you DJs, you trip over playing there everybody's record that 1:29:27.320 --> 1:29:30.840 don't give a shit about you. You ship over dudes 1:29:30.920 --> 1:29:33.880 that you you go crazy over playing this one's record 1:29:33.920 --> 1:29:35.360 of that where they don't even call to see if 1:29:35.400 --> 1:29:39.320 you're healthy, if you ate, if you're good anything. But 1:29:39.520 --> 1:29:41.800 somebody that's see your business that do the same thing 1:29:41.880 --> 1:29:43.599 that you do, is trying to get the same struggle 1:29:43.640 --> 1:29:45.800 go off the same way you are in the DJ. 1:29:45.960 --> 1:29:47.840 But as you won't support them, you won't play their 1:29:47.920 --> 1:29:51.320 music because you think it's taken away from you, You dumbass. 1:29:51.439 --> 1:29:54.640 All of your dumbasses that think that way, All of 1:29:54.720 --> 1:29:58.600 you got something say see me. All of your dumbasses 1:29:58.680 --> 1:30:02.640 that think that way, smartened up. If I blow up, 1:30:02.760 --> 1:30:04.640 you blow up. If you open the door for me, 1:30:05.200 --> 1:30:07.519 you blow up, You open the door for yourself for 1:30:07.600 --> 1:30:10.400 the DJ to go and better. And that's what my 1:30:10.479 --> 1:30:14.000 whole ship always been. It always been that. So why 1:30:14.080 --> 1:30:16.519 don't you hate on the album soundtrack in the streets? 1:30:16.520 --> 1:30:18.759 Why don't you hate on anything I put out? You dumbass? 1:30:20.200 --> 1:30:27.160 Take it out? You take it now. You're right. They 1:30:27.280 --> 1:30:30.800 you see that supporting themselves. If they're supporting the fellow DJ, 1:30:30.880 --> 1:30:32.799 they supporting things that they might do in the future. 1:30:33.000 --> 1:30:37.240 So now I did this album the love and regardless 1:30:37.240 --> 1:30:39.920 of it DJ played or nobody playing, my ship is dope. 1:30:40.920 --> 1:30:42.880 I sound better than a lot of you rappers. And 1:30:42.960 --> 1:30:45.599 I don't even do it. I don't even shot ready. 1:30:45.600 --> 1:30:49.080 I think it's tough for a SHOT's. I ain't gonna 1:30:49.400 --> 1:31:02.840 talking talking.

You know, I've 1:31:30.479 --> 1:31:33.400 never seen him dance before. He danced for like a 1:31:33.520 --> 1:31:36.160 long time with Beyonce. He was dancing. It was crazy. 1:31:36.280 --> 1:31:39.280 I've never seen that. To see that was bugged. I 1:31:39.360 --> 1:31:42.599 see Kanye pick you up to in the documentary.

He did do it, did it dope 1:31:54.360 --> 1:32:02.400 joint about joint, so right now, and I want you 1:32:02.400 --> 1:32:06.760 to be clear. What's your favorite party? The white boy 1:32:06.880 --> 1:32:10.000 parties where the girls rip out, Wednesdays show, the Tenny, 1:32:12.160 --> 1:32:20.000 the black parties, old school parties, new school parties. If 1:32:20.160 --> 1:32:24.560 if God said, listen, you got one party to do 1:32:24.800 --> 1:32:29.200 to get to heaven. The party that has young and 1:32:29.400 --> 1:32:35.280 old together, everybody together. The party is that called whatever 1:32:35.360 --> 1:32:38.600 party that is my my my spring break because the 1:32:38.600 --> 1:32:41.120 old nigg is don't go to spring break no more. Well, 1:32:41.200 --> 1:32:43.880 you know, the thing is a lot of older people 1:32:44.040 --> 1:32:46.040 don't party with the younger people, and the younger people 1:32:46.080 --> 1:32:48.560 don't party with the older people. But then in my 1:32:48.760 --> 1:32:51.599 parties would be like that. You'll see young and older together, 1:32:51.640 --> 1:32:53.479 they all have a good time. Because my whole thing 1:32:53.520 --> 1:32:55.080 always been a balance. And even if you listen to 1:32:55.120 --> 1:32:58.719 my radio shows called the black party, kick block party, 1:32:58.800 --> 1:33:01.839 a black party, you go to block party, right, Everybody 1:33:02.000 --> 1:33:07.000 is different, ages, the dress different, different, everybody, nobody's second grade. 1:33:07.040 --> 1:33:12.000 Everybody have a good time the same.

I wanted to say, Ballots, I played the 1:33:14.000 --> 1:33:17.400 new ship better than the young DJ, so I don't 1:33:17.479 --> 1:33:21.040 lose by it.

Okay, big up to So what 1:33:53.000 --> 1:33:56.760 made you want to do that? I did every day 1:33:56.800 --> 1:33:58.599 I could do with this DJ business, I did it all, 1:33:59.120 --> 1:34:00.719 you know what I'm saying. That's side in the quarmar 1:34:00.760 --> 1:34:04.320 tine and I watched a lot of suckers ship going on. Right, 1:34:04.960 --> 1:34:07.519 Dudes that was standing in front of the may back 1:34:09.320 --> 1:34:13.000 before the quarantine talking about they getting money. Soon as 1:34:13.080 --> 1:34:17.160 the quarantine hit five days later, they begged for cash shops. 1:34:18.000 --> 1:34:21.519 Its about cash app you' said twenty hours about cast 1:34:21.600 --> 1:34:24.200 just talk about DJs.

But but but 1:34:33.200 --> 1:34:44.799 it's a difference for DJ a new light on club business. 1:34:45.360 --> 1:34:50.639 Weren't surviving. Wa wait a minute, it's a difference when 1:34:50.920 --> 1:34:54.000 people want to send you money because you're working, pul 1:34:54.200 --> 1:34:58.040 pent up there working apposed and you turning around every 1:34:58.120 --> 1:35:00.760 five minutes asking for a cash. Your who could send 1:35:00.800 --> 1:35:02.920 me five dollars in my cash after two minutes? Yo, 1:35:03.120 --> 1:35:05.519 sets of my cash at it sound like we're begging. 1:35:06.840 --> 1:35:12.160 Sound exactly know, But here's my thing. The quartity happened 1:35:12.160 --> 1:35:16.280 five days ago. You're doing bad already. Don't try to 1:35:16.320 --> 1:35:17.880 get me with the bullshit. You do it bad already. 1:35:18.360 --> 1:35:21.080 You're taking advantage of people in their misery. That's what 1:35:21.160 --> 1:35:30.519 you're doing that you tell first, you talking to So 1:35:31.000 --> 1:35:34.840 with that being said, I was on the I was 1:35:34.920 --> 1:35:37.040 on the net for three years. Never asked for a dollar. 1:35:37.600 --> 1:35:40.760 I made no Penny Sunday t shirts to sell the 1:35:40.840 --> 1:35:43.000 people and it sold out, and I never said them 1:35:43.040 --> 1:35:45.639 to him, never took their money because I felt guilty 1:35:45.680 --> 1:35:47.599 taking money for people. That the reason why I did 1:35:47.640 --> 1:35:50.680 it was because promoters and fasts sell out my joy 1:35:50.960 --> 1:35:53.120 promoters had me come around the country, around the world 1:35:53.320 --> 1:35:55.840 and fast come and sell it out. I felt like, 1:35:55.920 --> 1:35:58.840 this is my way of giving something back. It's my 1:35:59.280 --> 1:36:01.240 give it to a free I say it plays is 1:36:01.320 --> 1:36:02.840 my way and giving something back to them, like yo, 1:36:03.200 --> 1:36:05.439 you know what I'm saying. So what I see not 1:36:05.640 --> 1:36:08.240 that they were getting money, because if you're burning electrics, 1:36:08.280 --> 1:36:09.760 did you work and people should want to pay you 1:36:09.840 --> 1:36:12.120 and say, yo, here, yo, you're entertaining me. Yo. Let 1:36:12.120 --> 1:36:15.400 me say you some brad, that's dope. But the now 1:36:15.439 --> 1:36:17.599 we're the change when you turn around and people's businicy 1:36:17.600 --> 1:36:19.639 with yo, let me see you can send me fifty 1:36:19.920 --> 1:36:22.000 of my cash chapter and you you a d you 1:36:22.040 --> 1:36:23.840 call yourself in DJ This is something that took care 1:36:23.880 --> 1:36:25.880 of me my whole career. It makes us look like 1:36:26.000 --> 1:36:30.160 we're thirsty. Got promoters watching this ship promotos look at 1:36:30.320 --> 1:36:33.040 the pay these things what they would and we're begging 1:36:33.080 --> 1:36:35.479 for buddy. So it looks crazy to me. And I 1:36:35.640 --> 1:36:37.640 stood on it. I said what I said, and at 1:36:37.680 --> 1:36:39.640 first people didn't understand it. So they got on my 1:36:39.760 --> 1:36:42.120 lives and they understood it. And I even talked about saying, 1:36:42.840 --> 1:36:44.799 is that that's rock and let's play music. We're supposed 1:36:44.800 --> 1:36:46.840 to be doing this ship, then let us do it 1:36:46.920 --> 1:36:49.280 because of the situation. But now you're over here asking 1:36:49.320 --> 1:36:51.280 for money, we're gonna get cut off. And that's exactly 1:36:51.320 --> 1:36:55.360 what happened. It started getting cut off because if Marian 1:36:55.479 --> 1:36:58.080 Cabby looks at your ship is she said, they're playing 1:36:58.120 --> 1:37:00.720 my music over it, I be like, yeah, how long 1:37:00.760 --> 1:37:02.679 have you played it? Let's go back in the video tape, 1:37:03.400 --> 1:37:05.720 see how long it's been going on. Okay, yeah, and 1:37:05.760 --> 1:37:08.439 it cuts you off. That's what happened. I think what 1:37:08.600 --> 1:37:10.639 that to happen. I was off for three years or there, 1:37:11.000 --> 1:37:14.439 never had a problem. Yeah, because then they their pins 1:37:14.640 --> 1:37:16.840 and their pins just saying cash at or something like that. 1:37:17.160 --> 1:37:19.360 It wasn't the pit. It was them saying that. It 1:37:19.520 --> 1:37:23.479 was like they were begging. Because he didn't do the cash. 1:37:23.720 --> 1:37:25.599 He didn't say it one time. He didn't say yo, 1:37:25.760 --> 1:37:28.760 said buddy, he put his pin up. That's it. And 1:37:29.000 --> 1:37:33.160 he was somebody like myself that could have got a big, big, 1:37:33.360 --> 1:37:36.280 big bag had he turned around and said yo, saibody 1:37:36.320 --> 1:37:38.640 about cash aft, regardless of it looked cheesy or not, 1:37:38.840 --> 1:37:42.280 he could have did that and blew up. He didn't 1:37:42.280 --> 1:37:44.600 have to do that. He didn't do it, you know 1:37:44.640 --> 1:37:46.679 what I'm saying. So that was one of the things 1:37:46.680 --> 1:37:49.320 I was mad at Scratch act because Scratch when I 1:37:49.400 --> 1:37:53.080 put that post up, scratched one of my combat before. 1:37:53.200 --> 1:37:55.479 You say something about b D. Dice and that's and 1:37:55.560 --> 1:37:58.479 that's taking cash aft with your donsarsistic ways and whoop, 1:37:58.520 --> 1:38:00.720 the whoop, the whoop. I wasn't even to talking about y'all. 1:38:01.240 --> 1:38:08.599 I wasn't thinking about comment. And that's what Big Daddy came. 1:38:08.600 --> 1:38:11.560 He could have cured me, he said about comment, I 1:38:11.600 --> 1:38:13.840 wasn't even talking about that. I'm talking about niggas. That 1:38:13.920 --> 1:38:17.800 wasn't DJs that was doing this ship, that was making 1:38:17.840 --> 1:38:20.439 the business that me and you scratched her in that 1:38:20.600 --> 1:38:23.360 makers look like we thirsty, like you supposed me on 1:38:23.439 --> 1:38:26.640 my side. Instead, you took this opportunity to put the 1:38:26.680 --> 1:38:30.160 attention on yourself and shipped on me because I'm standing 1:38:30.200 --> 1:38:32.840 on for something that's right. When you could have called me, 1:38:34.520 --> 1:38:38.920 I didn't understand that, Like, so that was my stats 1:38:39.160 --> 1:38:41.000 I've ever missed A c called me was like more 1:38:41.040 --> 1:38:43.000 than that. He said, Yo, you're a thousand percent right 1:38:43.000 --> 1:38:44.760 at what you said. He said. But more than that, 1:38:45.080 --> 1:38:46.640 he said, I have a different way of looking at it. 1:38:46.880 --> 1:38:48.960 He said, these are the same dudes ever said it 1:38:48.960 --> 1:38:50.680 in front of a bay back talk about they get 1:38:50.800 --> 1:38:54.400 money as soon as the ship happened. They're begging for cash. 1:38:54.479 --> 1:39:01.400 Ats that's where I got it from. That's in the exactly, 1:39:01.520 --> 1:39:04.160 And it made us look like we're thirsty, like like 1:39:04.280 --> 1:39:08.519 we It was nobody else doing, no actors, no nobody else, 1:39:08.640 --> 1:39:10.639 it was just the DJs, and they made us look 1:39:10.680 --> 1:39:13.519 like we're not doing good. These same guys asked me 1:39:13.600 --> 1:39:23.120 for this cash. That what they're entertaining on Instagram during Yeah, right, 1:39:23.240 --> 1:39:25.720 that's right there talking And it wasn't even doing nothing. 1:39:25.800 --> 1:39:29.400 They were just taking advantage of people's misery at the 1:39:29.520 --> 1:39:32.200 time it was going on. And that's what I had 1:39:32.240 --> 1:39:34.320 a plot with And the only reason why I said 1:39:34.360 --> 1:39:36.200 something it had a plot with it because I was 1:39:36.280 --> 1:39:38.200 doing it before I got dead quarantine came up. I 1:39:38.240 --> 1:39:41.080 was doing for three years before the Quarvertine came two 1:39:41.160 --> 1:39:45.360 shows a week every week, never asked somebody for a DIB. So, yeah, 1:39:45.400 --> 1:39:47.880 we're in this situation. Yeah, I know you, but there's 1:39:47.880 --> 1:39:50.600 a classy way of doing days. If you need it. 1:39:50.920 --> 1:39:53.280 You're I'm gonna pit DJ and you see me playing, 1:39:53.560 --> 1:39:55.479 Come see me the ball if you like me. When 1:39:55.520 --> 1:39:58.200 this ship opens up, happy, come do your wedding. Happy, 1:39:58.280 --> 1:40:01.080 Come do your That's a I see way of doing this. 1:40:01.280 --> 1:40:03.559 It's like it's a certain way to do what people 1:40:03.600 --> 1:40:05.640 take advantage of. Every somebody said, who could one day 1:40:05.680 --> 1:40:08.000 everybody saw smoking. You don't even know who get his? 1:40:08.640 --> 1:40:18.000 Sure you're they call a sea shot, I'm saying. So 1:40:18.120 --> 1:40:20.240 that's what I'm saying, Like, that's that's what my problem was. 1:40:20.280 --> 1:40:22.920 But I'm not I'm not a posed of people getting paid. 1:40:23.000 --> 1:40:24.639 Like if people want to send your buddy or whatever, 1:40:24.640 --> 1:40:27.480 the hell yeah they should. You up there, burden electricity, 1:40:27.520 --> 1:40:29.760 you work it. Hell yeah they should. They should do 1:40:29.800 --> 1:40:31.640 it now if you were there doing it to take them, 1:40:31.720 --> 1:40:35.360 send money to them, let them work. But the way 1:40:35.400 --> 1:40:37.320 they would do it, it just made us look real cheesy. 1:40:37.360 --> 1:40:38.840 It made us look crazy, and I felt like I 1:40:38.920 --> 1:40:40.760 had to say something. So I thought Scratch would have 1:40:40.840 --> 1:40:44.679 my back. And with the other way, with the other way, 1:40:46.760 --> 1:40:49.200 I don't want cash back. We gotta take our cash 1:40:49.400 --> 1:40:54.800 the link off of our link tree. She got real, 1:40:54.920 --> 1:41:06.599 she got real. H So have you ever liked um 1:41:07.400 --> 1:41:10.400 did a party. These people will just come out to 1:41:10.439 --> 1:41:13.800 you and want you to play what they want to hear. Yeah, 1:41:14.160 --> 1:41:18.560 and we usually drunk people be females. It usually be 1:41:18.680 --> 1:41:22.880 females that get drunk. Like one time, so there's someone 1:41:22.920 --> 1:41:28.719 in that check she was with a man and she's 1:41:28.760 --> 1:41:32.160 bagging on the side. I don't really be a boost. 1:41:32.400 --> 1:41:34.120 But it was a spot that only had a boothy 1:41:34.160 --> 1:41:36.439 with no space that to be set up back. But 1:41:36.560 --> 1:41:39.120 he bagged. She's bagging the booth. You'll play some Jamaican 1:41:39.320 --> 1:41:47.040 music bagging the booth. What's the Jamaican No, So that's 1:41:47.080 --> 1:41:52.839 not the music like jaking music like Yo, you know crazes, 1:41:53.280 --> 1:41:57.240 which is like and that guy out, but also for 1:41:57.320 --> 1:41:59.120 the drink off for a man to drink, you know. 1:41:59.800 --> 1:42:02.360 But yeah, you go through that. Sometimes I don't really 1:42:02.400 --> 1:42:07.680 go through it because when you keep people occupied, they 1:42:07.720 --> 1:42:09.599 don't think to say that. It's when you're not doing 1:42:09.680 --> 1:42:11.760 your job. Somebody comes up and says, yo, can you 1:42:11.800 --> 1:42:15.400 play this and play that? Because they're they're boy. That 1:42:15.520 --> 1:42:18.639 only happens when their board. That's why you got people 1:42:18.760 --> 1:42:21.440 keep everybody or they told you gotta keep everybody excited. 1:42:21.880 --> 1:42:24.240 At one time so this way they will never feel 1:42:24.280 --> 1:42:27.360 that they have to do that. They really have the 1:42:27.560 --> 1:42:30.560 right because if you work anyway, I'm not coming to 1:42:30.560 --> 1:42:31.880 your job and tell you how to do your job. 1:42:32.200 --> 1:42:33.800 So while you feel like you should come up and 1:42:33.800 --> 1:42:35.360 tell me how to do bobs or any other DJ 1:42:35.680 --> 1:42:37.679 that's what their job is to do. But in their mind, 1:42:37.760 --> 1:42:41.000 they paid the cover fee, and that's paying your feet. Yeah, 1:42:41.000 --> 1:42:42.760 they think that you're the money actually band that they 1:42:42.800 --> 1:42:44.280 want to hear all the songs, but they also pay 1:42:44.360 --> 1:42:46.160 the cover free to a movie theater. They're not cover 1:42:46.280 --> 1:42:49.080 over there. Tell the guys when the show the movie's 1:42:49.080 --> 1:42:51.960 what I'm saying, like they do. Tell the police, I 1:42:52.080 --> 1:42:56.040 pay your motherfucking taxes. Well they should because a lot 1:42:56.080 --> 1:42:59.400 of police some do their job by doing a lot 1:42:59.400 --> 1:43:02.080 of great police. But that's police. Where that got they 1:43:02.240 --> 1:43:05.479 asked with where they were yo, just like ts A 1:43:05.640 --> 1:43:07.760 dudes at the airport, they got the asked where they 1:43:07.800 --> 1:43:12.280 were Yo. The girl didn't find him attractive, and they're mad. 1:43:12.360 --> 1:43:13.920 They grew up mad, so they got a badge. They 1:43:14.000 --> 1:43:15.600 want to take that ship out on people that you know, 1:43:16.600 --> 1:43:20.160 you know, yeah, yeah you can see who that is. Yeah, 1:43:20.160 --> 1:43:23.080 but you can't confuse that with people interfering when the 1:43:23.160 --> 1:43:26.960 cops are doing their regular job and jumping into the mix. Yeah, 1:43:27.120 --> 1:43:30.680 that's that's the crivalent enough going up to the DJ booth. Yeah, 1:43:30.680 --> 1:43:33.120 that's how I'm going comparing it to Yeah, both is wrong. 1:43:33.320 --> 1:43:37.560 Both is wrong. We're coming and saying, hey, man, I 1:43:37.680 --> 1:43:44.040 want to hear ain't no half stepping you like you 1:43:44.160 --> 1:43:49.800 in the middle chief keeping y'all niggas coming to you. 1:43:50.240 --> 1:43:52.360 I mean old nags come to you. Man. I wan't 1:43:52.520 --> 1:43:54.400 ain't know half stepping. You don't know which one it 1:43:54.600 --> 1:43:57.679 is which, Just stop and talk to someone that comes 1:43:57.680 --> 1:44:01.400 to the Dgypt is a fucking vibe killer. But what 1:44:01.560 --> 1:44:04.840 if I know the DJ even worse, even worse than 1:44:04.920 --> 1:44:07.959 you know the DJ. Really see what people don't understand 1:44:10.200 --> 1:44:12.240 If I'm in a certain place, If a DJ is 1:44:12.240 --> 1:44:14.080 in a certain place and just doing a certain thing, 1:44:15.560 --> 1:44:18.040 you can't as a person that as a as a customer, 1:44:18.120 --> 1:44:20.400 come up to say, yo, let me stop, just let 1:44:20.600 --> 1:44:23.920 Joe do this. He may not be in that area, 1:44:25.200 --> 1:44:28.000 but she as a person who's not a DJ or 1:44:28.000 --> 1:44:30.080 somebody that's not an entertainer, you're not thinking that. What 1:44:30.120 --> 1:44:33.280 you're just thinking about yourself not thinking about the bigger picture, 1:44:33.320 --> 1:44:39.200 which is burerk a day way, this is not this 1:44:39.360 --> 1:44:42.320 is I gotta satisfy all see that if people thought, 1:44:42.600 --> 1:44:46.920 see here's a day. People want the the end result. 1:44:47.000 --> 1:44:50.400 They don't care what happened before the end result, and 1:44:50.520 --> 1:44:54.240 that is I gotta deal with getting dressed, packing my clothes. 1:44:54.920 --> 1:44:57.120 I gotta deal with getting to the airport. I gotta 1:44:57.160 --> 1:44:59.640 deal with possibly losing my stuff. I gotta deal with 1:45:00.280 --> 1:45:02.599 asshole tears say they feel like they want to be cops. 1:45:03.080 --> 1:45:04.760 I gotta deal with laten that' I gotta deal with 1:45:04.880 --> 1:45:08.559 losing my bag, right, I gotta deal with losing my bags. 1:45:08.640 --> 1:45:10.400 I gotta deal with getting there, and then I gotta 1:45:10.400 --> 1:45:13.360 deal with getting check in the hotel, getting something to eat, 1:45:13.760 --> 1:45:16.720 doing sound check, coming back to get dressed, all these 1:45:16.760 --> 1:45:20.000 different days before I do a party, to be in 1:45:20.080 --> 1:45:21.680 front of you. They don't care about. They don't know 1:45:21.680 --> 1:45:23.719 none of that. They know it wasn't good at the party. 1:45:24.400 --> 1:45:27.000 That's all they care about. The same way it goes 1:45:27.120 --> 1:45:33.000 vice versa. Those people pay to get there in a car. 1:45:33.080 --> 1:45:34.679 If they don't have a car, they got a podcast 1:45:34.840 --> 1:45:36.960 or whatever. How they gotta get there. They get there, 1:45:37.120 --> 1:45:39.080 they pay to get in. They gotta buy clothes to 1:45:39.400 --> 1:45:42.080 look fly to be at the party. Once they get in, 1:45:42.120 --> 1:45:44.880 they gotta buy drinks. They do all this because you're 1:45:44.920 --> 1:45:46.639 in the building. How do you not give them the best? 1:45:46.680 --> 1:45:49.240 You give them? So it works both ways. You said 1:45:49.240 --> 1:45:51.759 what I'm saying. The bottom line is the end result. 1:45:51.840 --> 1:45:54.720 People want to be entertained. It's your job to entertain them. 1:45:54.760 --> 1:45:56.960 They don't care about anything that happened before that, even 1:45:57.000 --> 1:46:00.920 though they partly should if they knew what you went 1:46:01.000 --> 1:46:05.320 through to go. You know shows, you know your dog, right, 1:46:05.439 --> 1:46:07.439 you know what your preparation was before you went to 1:46:07.479 --> 1:46:11.040 go hit that stage, right, and you do I'm a 1:46:11.080 --> 1:46:21.680 foul naker. Well I'm just going prep But I can 1:46:21.800 --> 1:46:23.800 tell you this. I can tell you this whether there 1:46:23.880 --> 1:46:27.599 was fourteen people there or forty people there, if they 1:46:27.760 --> 1:46:31.519 had fun, I had fun. That's it. That's that's it. 1:46:32.120 --> 1:46:35.240 The whole preparation of everything that to make that happen. 1:46:35.680 --> 1:46:37.920 It's something that people don't care. They pay their ticket. 1:46:39.200 --> 1:46:41.840 It's the taby. If you're not good, I'm gonna get 1:46:41.880 --> 1:46:44.200 on the net and talk about how bad your ass was, 1:46:45.560 --> 1:46:49.639 even if it's your fault, bad equipment, bad sound bad. 1:46:51.000 --> 1:46:54.120 It's you stop the promoter. It's not the sound issue. 1:46:54.200 --> 1:46:58.040 If you did wait, I paid my money for I'll 1:46:58.040 --> 1:47:00.240 be get at your ass. So imagine you with that, 1:47:00.600 --> 1:47:02.559 and you got two of the fifty shows every year, 1:47:03.520 --> 1:47:07.280 every year, you do this constantly and never get no 1:47:07.360 --> 1:47:10.200 bad reports. You say you got two shows. I was 1:47:10.280 --> 1:47:12.680 doing two of the fifty shows, and we're down to 1:47:12.720 --> 1:47:15.000 two hundred. And I talked about badager of Christie Clifford, 1:47:15.040 --> 1:47:18.720 which is incredible bnager. I told her, we have to, 1:47:18.920 --> 1:47:20.320 we have to, we have to slow down. I just 1:47:20.360 --> 1:47:23.400 want to do weekends. I can't do all these dates 1:47:23.479 --> 1:47:26.920 that I'll cover that be At one point shows with 1:47:27.040 --> 1:47:38.640 me Nick was that because the leaves with me. And 1:47:38.760 --> 1:47:42.200 then down here Bammy. I started doing CABBYO and I 1:47:42.320 --> 1:47:45.120 got me a crib. I bought a loose when you 1:47:45.280 --> 1:47:47.840 perform that loose Luke, I was doing loops, I like three. 1:47:49.680 --> 1:47:52.280 When I started doing Cabrio, I bought a crib down. 1:47:52.280 --> 1:47:54.200 I got a crib down here twelve for college. I 1:47:54.280 --> 1:47:59.920 had the cript for died years. At that time. We 1:48:13.160 --> 1:48:17.240 still going on. But you know, being on the road 1:48:17.400 --> 1:48:20.400 that much, yo, I had to carve it down. I 1:48:20.479 --> 1:48:22.200 was like yo, let me, I gotta just do the 1:48:22.280 --> 1:48:24.439 weekends now because it was just too much. It was 1:48:25.080 --> 1:48:27.000 too much, and I wanted to do one thing. So 1:48:27.080 --> 1:48:31.040 when the pandemic happened, I got a chance to. Because 1:48:31.040 --> 1:48:33.599 I've been on the road from eight to the pandemic. 1:48:34.560 --> 1:48:38.559 If I took off two months within that time tributated together, 1:48:39.040 --> 1:48:42.080 that's a long time I've been on the road fever, 1:48:42.600 --> 1:48:45.720 So when a pandemic happened, I had a chance to 1:48:45.800 --> 1:48:48.200 sit down and focus on other ship. I had other 1:48:48.320 --> 1:48:51.880 things that I wanted to do right. So that's how 1:48:51.920 --> 1:48:54.559 I did the Top of the Love. I did four 1:48:54.640 --> 1:48:57.599 other to three other albums besides that, the album called 1:48:57.640 --> 1:48:59.800 Top Tire. Before this, I started album like four years 1:48:59.800 --> 1:49:02.040 ago with all the battered rappers. I never put it 1:49:02.080 --> 1:49:04.080 out because music kind of changed. I said, you know what, 1:49:04.479 --> 1:49:06.439 let me just hold off for that and get back 1:49:06.479 --> 1:49:08.519 to it. So when I did this album, I went 1:49:08.600 --> 1:49:10.519 back to the Top TiO album. While I was doing 1:49:10.600 --> 1:49:14.400 this album, every re updated the Top TiO album. So 1:49:14.439 --> 1:49:16.240 I did that. I did an album with a group 1:49:16.280 --> 1:49:18.280 call the Hoodies. You might see the Hoodies on the net, 1:49:18.560 --> 1:49:20.519 do what they think? I just finished the album warn them, 1:49:20.920 --> 1:49:23.200 produced a joy. I got an artist called Food so 1:49:23.320 --> 1:49:25.360 they had done an album, or myself. So I did 1:49:25.479 --> 1:49:27.840 four albums. I did two Car Tools or one of 1:49:27.920 --> 1:49:29.920 the car whether the characters are the Proud family Car 1:49:30.000 --> 1:49:32.080 Tool that's coming back out. And then I did my 1:49:32.160 --> 1:49:34.280 old car Tool. I did a movie call Mr. Every 1:49:34.360 --> 1:49:37.080 Other or be I'm not a five sit done all that. 1:49:37.520 --> 1:49:40.479 I opened up my Cold a Sucker Free, and we 1:49:40.600 --> 1:49:43.479 opened up East Coast Capital Realty. I did all this 1:49:43.560 --> 1:49:46.360 in the pandemic. All this was done to the pandemic. 1:49:46.520 --> 1:49:50.760 So Jazz she has East Coast Capital Um and we 1:49:50.880 --> 1:49:53.880 did all this in the pandemic. So when the album 1:49:53.920 --> 1:49:56.759 came out, it was because you could. It was because 1:49:56.920 --> 1:49:59.160 I needed something else. I needed it just the time 1:49:59.240 --> 1:50:02.240 to sit down and focus. That's why the album sat 1:50:02.280 --> 1:50:03.640 the way it doesn't, because I had a chance to 1:50:03.680 --> 1:50:06.560 sit down and realized what I was doing. Beard on 1:50:06.600 --> 1:50:10.080 the voter was I even lost forty pounds because being 1:50:10.160 --> 1:50:12.800 on the road, even if you exercise every that, you 1:50:12.880 --> 1:50:15.080 still eat that show, so you don't get a chance 1:50:15.120 --> 1:50:18.240 to catch up on yourself. I lost forty pounds in 1:50:18.280 --> 1:50:21.280 a pen duck. So as much as it was a 1:50:21.360 --> 1:50:23.080 bad thing for a lot of people. It was pretty 1:50:23.120 --> 1:50:25.920 good for me because of these reasons. You know, I 1:50:25.960 --> 1:50:28.840 got a chance to get it off if somebody needed 1:50:28.840 --> 1:50:30.760 to a lot of people needed to be still for 1:50:30.840 --> 1:50:32.960 a second. That's what the pandemic need to sit down. 1:50:33.640 --> 1:50:36.640 So when this kicking pretty book coming out, I've been 1:50:36.840 --> 1:50:42.680 I've been working on the movie. We the movie is cinematic. 1:50:42.720 --> 1:50:47.160 Wait till you see this ship. It looked incredible. It's 1:50:47.280 --> 1:50:49.160 gonna be the movie first, So probably do the book after, 1:50:50.360 --> 1:50:53.639 and the excused to do it first. Let go, that's fine, 1:50:54.680 --> 1:50:57.720 Always do this a little Yeah, that's fine. So the 1:50:57.840 --> 1:51:02.920 movie first, to Rad Malcolm Ship. Then I was like, all, yeah, yeah, 1:51:03.600 --> 1:51:06.080 it don't have it's a rude to production. That's true 1:51:07.600 --> 1:51:11.320 in the book. That's not in the movie exactly because 1:51:11.400 --> 1:51:15.400 of the movie. Even when like like you take like 1:51:15.520 --> 1:51:19.040 you take a any movie you take James Brown movie 1:51:19.960 --> 1:51:23.960 Get All Up, Big Jagga, Big Jagger did Get On Up. 1:51:24.120 --> 1:51:27.240 But he also did the documentary which is Mr Dynamite, 1:51:27.800 --> 1:51:30.920 right things to the Mr Dynamite Get On Up. Because 1:51:30.960 --> 1:51:32.720 Get On Up you already have a certain amount of 1:51:32.800 --> 1:51:34.760 time to tell a story. You don't have a lot 1:51:34.800 --> 1:51:37.200 of time in the movie so a lot of things 1:51:37.320 --> 1:51:39.000 get left out, a lot of things get cut off. 1:51:39.080 --> 1:51:41.439 That's why documentary is so important. That that's why people 1:51:41.479 --> 1:51:44.479 love documentary so much. Unsung it all these things because 1:51:44.520 --> 1:51:47.760 it tells. It tells the rise of the fall, you 1:51:47.800 --> 1:51:49.559 know what I'm saying. And that's why it's so dope. 1:51:49.600 --> 1:51:52.000 So we're just documented I did. It's called Mr. Every 1:51:52.080 --> 1:51:56.759 Ever and every era this to every Ever like Mr. Everything, 1:51:56.840 --> 1:52:07.960 but every every ever last name Mr So, Mr. Every 1:52:08.040 --> 1:52:10.519 Other shows a lot of stuff that when we brought 1:52:10.600 --> 1:52:14.320 it so certain Compley doesn't want to say today is 1:52:14.320 --> 1:52:16.599 what we brought a certain companies they say, your your 1:52:16.640 --> 1:52:18.519 story is too long kid to do a movie, so 1:52:18.600 --> 1:52:22.800 we need to do six parts. So that's what we're 1:52:22.800 --> 1:52:27.280 doing right now. It's a six part documentary. Well it's 1:52:27.320 --> 1:52:29.560 been well we put it together. We're gonna put it 1:52:29.640 --> 1:52:32.080 down as six parts because the story is too long 1:52:32.160 --> 1:52:35.800 about it's too long, it's too much states to talk about, 1:52:36.120 --> 1:52:38.559 and it needs not it needs to be that yeah, yeah, yeah, 1:52:39.120 --> 1:52:42.679 you work when right carry too right. I didn't work 1:52:42.720 --> 1:52:49.040 with I did uh really cool, but I would say 1:52:49.040 --> 1:52:50.320 the first person as the part I canna tell you 1:52:50.320 --> 1:52:53.839 what I did party with the first party Barta Stewart, 1:52:54.240 --> 1:52:57.840 but I did bother Stewart first party. First, her first part, 1:52:57.880 --> 1:53:01.479 first your first part, first hip hop project Bob is two. 1:53:01.760 --> 1:53:03.439 And the party is just when she came home or 1:53:03.479 --> 1:53:06.200 this is before she went. This was she because that 1:53:06.439 --> 1:53:09.960 she came that's crazy and she comes home. I think 1:53:10.000 --> 1:53:16.320 she came home first. I did a party of Trump's house. Okay, 1:53:16.360 --> 1:53:20.000 this is this is pre ratio Donald Trump president of 1:53:20.040 --> 1:53:23.519 the Trump's house before he just before he became. Yeah, yeah, 1:53:24.120 --> 1:53:26.800 before me came on that. I did probably drudge Trump's house. 1:53:27.120 --> 1:53:29.840 I did Eddie Burfie. I did find let's let's stay 1:53:29.840 --> 1:53:33.479 on Trump House. Okay, were Trump House at Florida? That 1:53:33.600 --> 1:53:37.360 should like you need a helicopter getting at Jeffrey? Is 1:53:37.400 --> 1:53:48.840 that Jeffrey a little right now? Alan, You're right, I 1:53:49.000 --> 1:53:52.080 definitely I didn't mean to stay like that, but hey, alright, 1:53:52.120 --> 1:53:53.639 so you went down on the Trump House. I wasn't 1:53:53.640 --> 1:53:57.080 looking at all, right, crazy, you look like you need 1:53:57.120 --> 1:53:59.400 a matter of fact, the room that we was in, 1:54:00.960 --> 1:54:05.920 everything was solid gold pitches, folks, dis ship he was 1:54:06.000 --> 1:54:08.280 president before it was just before the president. He's still 1:54:08.920 --> 1:54:19.479 us venus wo. Yeah, it was pretty big. Asked me 1:54:19.600 --> 1:54:23.519 how much did Trump pay? But I don't want I 1:54:23.560 --> 1:54:24.960 would have it would have been flaving us that he 1:54:25.040 --> 1:54:29.719 didn't pay. No trump pants line, don't got the whole country. 1:54:30.200 --> 1:54:32.080 Trump paid the whole country and make somebody else. But 1:54:32.120 --> 1:54:34.400 you don't got the p PB loans. You think that 1:54:35.200 --> 1:54:36.680 you think this war would have happen if Trump was 1:54:36.680 --> 1:54:39.480 still in off? Why? Why why would you do? I 1:54:40.160 --> 1:54:42.400 don't think. I don't think our side had anything to do, 1:54:42.560 --> 1:54:44.839 like we wouldn't have controlled what you think he was stopped. 1:54:46.080 --> 1:54:49.280 I don't. This is what you're saying, and it's some 1:54:49.400 --> 1:54:51.560 real holy ship thinking like yeo, man, let me don't 1:54:51.560 --> 1:54:53.920 got no army no more. Let's just gonna But that 1:54:54.040 --> 1:54:56.080 sounds like some street ship though, like, don't you're talking 1:54:56.080 --> 1:54:58.800 about puting thinking that? Yeah, like who were like fading 1:54:58.920 --> 1:55:00.920 really lit like that? No more? I'm just gonna take 1:55:00.960 --> 1:55:03.560 over this ship. What's what's not arting about that? You know? 1:55:03.800 --> 1:55:05.960 You know he only said I street about that. I'm 1:55:05.960 --> 1:55:07.440 not a fan of Trump, to be honest with you, 1:55:07.560 --> 1:55:09.560 But the only reason I would say that maybe it 1:55:09.560 --> 1:55:11.400 would have been a thought not to do it is 1:55:11.400 --> 1:55:15.160 because Trump was so wild that maybe poom be like yeah, 1:55:15.200 --> 1:55:17.000 I don't know this guy. We can't predict what this 1:55:17.040 --> 1:55:19.280 guy's getting. Nobody wild and this motherfucker's I might as 1:55:19.280 --> 1:55:22.480 well not do it right, Yeah, because Trump will say 1:55:22.520 --> 1:55:24.920 crazy ship like he talk keep talking North Korea. You 1:55:24.960 --> 1:55:26.920 know we're gonna burn your ship down. At least. Trump 1:55:27.000 --> 1:55:30.240 came outside every day like Biden and were he he 1:55:30.360 --> 1:55:35.680 needs to He didn't, Man, he needs to talk. Listen. 1:55:35.720 --> 1:55:38.360 I'm not a fan of neither, but I said what 1:55:38.440 --> 1:55:40.440 a fan neither either. I tell you one thing Trump 1:55:40.560 --> 1:55:43.320 came outside about. Trump was talking a little crazy bro. 1:55:43.800 --> 1:55:45.400 I can't take it, came out. I try to take 1:55:45.480 --> 1:55:49.000 the way the Trump talking about I think COVID. He's like, 1:55:49.080 --> 1:55:52.600 I got COVID taking his mask off, Like what did 1:55:52.640 --> 1:55:55.840 you do with the microphones? Was the President like urged 1:55:55.880 --> 1:55:58.200 you streaking COVID into the microphone. That's how you know 1:55:58.320 --> 1:56:00.280 he would look. But Trump is crazy. I think he 1:56:00.400 --> 1:56:02.240 picked up Poot and he's like, yo, shout him out 1:56:02.280 --> 1:56:06.000 for what he's just doing. Right. No, no, not for 1:56:06.160 --> 1:56:09.280 what he's doing right now. Picked up for what he's 1:56:09.320 --> 1:56:11.880 doing right. Trump said, he picked him up. He said 1:56:11.920 --> 1:56:13.720 something like, I respect it. He said something like that, 1:56:13.800 --> 1:56:17.120 I respect him for it. This is politically we never 1:56:17.160 --> 1:56:24.000 really talked about right before. I don't know if we 1:56:24.040 --> 1:56:25.440 get out of here or not, but I want to 1:56:25.480 --> 1:56:29.320 talk about your history of Big Um. Was it strictly 1:56:29.360 --> 1:56:31.600 because of Columbia records? Was it? Was it the Harlem 1:56:31.680 --> 1:56:34.360 connector Big I was cool, you know, it was cool 1:56:34.360 --> 1:56:38.440 with d T. So yeah, And they asked me to 1:56:38.520 --> 1:56:40.040 just do put it on back and there I was 1:56:40.040 --> 1:56:41.120 just doing that. But I used to go down and 1:56:41.160 --> 1:56:42.960 don't see Big out just all random just hang out 1:56:43.000 --> 1:56:44.720 down there. I used to tell Big I was like, 1:56:44.800 --> 1:56:47.480 you're big you you You're about to be something. Man. 1:56:47.520 --> 1:56:49.800 I was like, yo, you know what I understand.

He used to be 1:56:55.160 --> 1:56:57.880 outside all the time. Actually just drive out and just 1:56:58.000 --> 1:57:00.280 hang out with him. That's tithing, like you're you know 1:57:00.920 --> 1:57:03.080 before the records that you use on the record. This 1:57:03.400 --> 1:57:05.400 well this is after he put it on, sounding like 1:57:05.480 --> 1:57:07.120 you know, like you just just you know what I'm saying, 1:57:07.160 --> 1:57:09.440 like just trying to be low, like know what I'm saying, 1:57:09.560 --> 1:57:12.000 like just stay out the way. Like you know what's 1:57:12.040 --> 1:57:14.800 going and do your records, just do your stuff. But 1:57:15.000 --> 1:57:18.040 you know, l was so cool. It was just soo 1:57:18.440 --> 1:57:20.320 like if you listen to the way he robed when 1:57:20.360 --> 1:57:25.240 you met him, it was a total opposite the way 1:57:25.320 --> 1:57:27.760 he robbed. He robbed like like he'll chop your head off. 1:57:28.880 --> 1:57:33.080 But when he was just sucked subtle cool dude, like 1:57:33.320 --> 1:57:36.040 just a little fly, little dude. Like it wasn't like 1:57:36.280 --> 1:57:40.920 it was, it wasn't nowhere. It's like it was just cool. 1:57:41.360 --> 1:57:46.520 So I used to tell him like dogs, like I 1:57:46.640 --> 1:57:48.760 know this is your boys. Everybody's cool way. You know, 1:57:48.880 --> 1:57:50.800 I know all that, but like trying to be at 1:57:50.800 --> 1:57:54.480 the house, right do you shoot? Stay out the way? 1:57:54.600 --> 1:57:55.840 You know what I'm saying, like, just try to stay 1:57:55.880 --> 1:58:00.160 out the way. And unfortunately what happened happened, man, I mean, 1:58:00.240 --> 1:58:06.000 wasn't his fault, you know it. Uh, you know it's 1:58:06.040 --> 1:58:08.040 a big loss, man, because I wanted to see how 1:58:08.160 --> 1:58:11.600 far he was would have been crazy, he'd been crazy, 1:58:12.440 --> 1:58:15.520 you know, U sounfortunate. But he was one of the 1:58:15.680 --> 1:58:18.120 he was one of the dope dudes. Definitely, you met 1:58:18.160 --> 1:58:21.200 Big in Tupaca, right, absolutely a matter of fact. You 1:58:21.280 --> 1:58:24.840 see this did you see this. No, we sent it 1:58:24.920 --> 1:58:27.960 to us, straight to you right now. We'll be in 1:58:28.000 --> 1:58:39.120 big right there. Hugged each other. Why I never must 1:58:39.120 --> 1:58:41.640 have interacted a lot. Yeah, I mean he immortalized me 1:58:41.720 --> 1:58:44.360 big a piece of r G. Brucey Bee kicking proven 1:58:44.440 --> 1:58:47.000 many hemmortalized me. So but you know, Big was cool man, 1:58:47.080 --> 1:58:50.240 solid dude man like I remember did the show with 1:58:50.320 --> 1:58:55.200 him in Detroit and a matter of fact, was the 1:58:55.240 --> 1:58:57.960 players outside, Yeah it was. It was a little different. 1:58:58.040 --> 1:59:00.160 It was a little different. Was the back in the 1:59:00.240 --> 1:59:02.760 backstage and he had a car then way they the 1:59:02.800 --> 1:59:04.160 way they set it up, it was a car that 1:59:04.320 --> 1:59:09.320 drives to the to the it's addressable. So I went 1:59:09.360 --> 1:59:10.840 back there I seen him. It was like you're bigger. 1:59:10.920 --> 1:59:12.640 So it was like I got some music that you 1:59:12.720 --> 1:59:13.920 might want to hear whatever. It was like you got 1:59:14.000 --> 1:59:17.800 some shoot shot. It was like, yeah, that's some ship. 1:59:18.640 --> 1:59:20.440 He went on stage. When he went on stage, I 1:59:20.480 --> 1:59:25.880 remember hearing this roar. It was like it was like 1:59:25.960 --> 1:59:28.560 I never heard a roar like that from crowd. He 1:59:28.760 --> 1:59:30.920 was that big man. When I do hit the stage, 1:59:32.520 --> 1:59:35.560 it was mangle time. So it was unfortunately lost someone. 1:59:35.560 --> 1:59:37.880 As long as earlier we did as we did, but 1:59:38.080 --> 1:59:40.720 you know he was so powerful as legacy on their fever. 1:59:41.200 --> 1:59:45.080 How about then, I know I know Pop. Every time 1:59:45.120 --> 1:59:47.920 I seen Pop. I remember one time being I was 1:59:47.960 --> 1:59:50.760 a l I was a crush show. I was at 1:59:50.760 --> 1:59:52.600 some restaurant, was like three o'clock in the morning. I 1:59:52.640 --> 1:59:56.440 went to some restaurant with with UH people and Pop 1:59:56.600 --> 2:00:01.440 was sitting in the restaurant with some dude nobody else 2:00:01.480 --> 2:00:04.240 in the restaurant, and I hugged him and he had 2:00:04.240 --> 2:00:07.320 a bulletproof vessel on. Then I seen him in New 2:00:07.440 --> 2:00:10.560 York at this seminar that they had it that it 2:00:10.640 --> 2:00:12.040 was forgot to them in the seminar, but it was 2:00:12.080 --> 2:00:15.560 at the New York Hilton Hotel, and I've seen him 2:00:15.640 --> 2:00:18.560 near hugged him neck. He had a bulletproof vessel on. 2:00:19.080 --> 2:00:21.160 Every time I said, I seen him on hundred twenty 2:00:21.160 --> 2:00:23.320 fish three. One time me and Bess was together, we 2:00:23.440 --> 2:00:25.800 took this picture all of us hugged him. He had 2:00:25.840 --> 2:00:27.560 a bulletproo vessel and it was like he was kind 2:00:27.600 --> 2:00:30.240 of like knew that he was gonna die, you know 2:00:30.280 --> 2:00:34.640 what I'm saying. And um, that was unfortunately too man, 2:00:34.720 --> 2:00:36.600 because you know, if I think I think if he 2:00:36.600 --> 2:00:39.080 would have been here. He probably would have started to 2:00:39.120 --> 2:00:43.240 school or something, have been somewhere over there. Both of 2:00:43.280 --> 2:00:45.600 them would have been around, both of them what they 2:00:45.600 --> 2:00:49.040 would have done again, absolutely absolutely so yeah, definitely that 2:00:49.160 --> 2:00:51.320 was a big loss in hip hop for sure. How 2:00:51.360 --> 2:00:54.160 about Prince this kick if we have a print story, absolutely, 2:00:54.280 --> 2:01:05.720 Oh my god, Prince came to Prince came to the Key. 2:01:05.840 --> 2:01:08.400 I did a party downtown in Manhattan called the Key 2:01:10.120 --> 2:01:12.120 Prince this Game.

You will forget that. 2:01:28.600 --> 2:01:31.560 He will have his ass out. It was his ass 2:01:32.000 --> 2:01:36.720 super super super cool, like you totally forget because he's pressed, 2:01:36.800 --> 2:01:41.480 like solid and nice with the basketball, crazy with the ball, 2:01:42.280 --> 2:01:45.160 super crazy with the ball. Woman play itself like a 2:01:45.280 --> 2:01:49.320 real NBA motherfucker, like really nice like that. Yo.

Then he had 2:01:54.840 --> 2:01:57.120 me come to his club. When he did preparate that 2:01:57.480 --> 2:01:59.320 the club, he had a minute in Minneapolis I did 2:01:59.360 --> 2:02:03.200 it twice for him. Did that joint When I tell you, man, 2:02:03.440 --> 2:02:06.240 you totally forget these prints. Like I'm talking, he had. 2:02:06.720 --> 2:02:08.800 He had these pigtails on his head like this, like 2:02:08.880 --> 2:02:12.040 these big gass braids in his head. Sitting at the club. 2:02:12.160 --> 2:02:13.560 We sat there for two hours and I did a 2:02:13.600 --> 2:02:16.360 little set where I played all his ship back to back, 2:02:17.200 --> 2:02:19.360 play the ship back to back. And he was like, yo, 2:02:19.440 --> 2:02:21.560 I never heard of DJ played my ship like that. 2:02:22.840 --> 2:02:25.880 And this is I was talking like some of the 2:02:26.000 --> 2:02:28.080 dudes that you see that we grew up on on 2:02:28.160 --> 2:02:30.560 television and we looked at we look at him in 2:02:30.560 --> 2:02:34.000 a certain way. But they ain't really real people. They 2:02:34.160 --> 2:02:36.680 just people like us. They're do different know what I'm saying, 2:02:36.680 --> 2:02:42.160 Like Rod Ozley, I'm sitting role sitting together ones that 2:02:42.240 --> 2:02:46.080 we did a boat rider. Uh this just uh this 2:02:46.920 --> 2:02:50.240 the truths for seven days me Rosey got bad the 2:02:50.440 --> 2:02:53.560 cad Douggy like a whole bunch of people do with 2:02:53.640 --> 2:02:57.320 this ship. The whole bunch of people. And I said, 2:02:57.640 --> 2:03:01.320 I said, our green was on age, right. He had 2:03:01.360 --> 2:03:04.440 his white dope suit over this rough shirt. You know, 2:03:04.560 --> 2:03:07.840 I mean, Rosy sitting next to each other already loaded, 2:03:08.800 --> 2:03:11.200 so I said, said all the husband, I said, Yo, 2:03:11.240 --> 2:03:13.840 you're like I agree. It was like, yeah, like, I'll agree. 2:03:13.920 --> 2:03:17.080 What the funking got on? You know, he was shipping 2:03:17.120 --> 2:03:18.960 on his clothes and he's saying this while he got 2:03:19.080 --> 2:03:24.480 a shade on jeans on bleother jacket, hat backwards baseball cap, 2:03:24.880 --> 2:03:27.640 sitting there like me. That's what I'm saying, Like, we 2:03:28.040 --> 2:03:31.720 see people a certain kind of way, but they'd be different. 2:03:31.920 --> 2:03:37.120 Whitny Houston, Houston, shout the whit they Houston. We see 2:03:37.200 --> 2:03:40.240 a certain kind of way. It was a different way 2:03:40.520 --> 2:03:42.960 that that that docks a down or anything like that 2:03:43.200 --> 2:03:46.680 or anything like. But you know, people, people are people. 2:03:46.840 --> 2:03:49.360 We are people. We are no better than nobody else. 2:03:49.440 --> 2:03:52.480 Just because you have a startup job where you're iditate, 2:03:52.600 --> 2:03:55.600 it doesn't make you better than anybody else. You just 2:03:55.680 --> 2:03:58.640 have a different job. That's why when people embody this, 2:03:58.840 --> 2:04:01.080 I hate it. I said this over the records a 2:04:01.160 --> 2:04:02.920 new record I did. I hate a little rapper that 2:04:03.000 --> 2:04:06.120 walks around like a little rapper all day bufuck. I 2:04:06.160 --> 2:04:07.680 don't know how to turn it off. I'm not kicking 2:04:07.720 --> 2:04:10.560 pre what I wake up, I'm David Love and then 2:04:10.600 --> 2:04:12.200 I'm kicking pre what. I need to turn it off. 2:04:12.800 --> 2:04:15.400 That's an ill DJ name. Don't too David Manny, people 2:04:15.440 --> 2:04:17.120 said the New yor kid while you recall yourself D 2:04:17.280 --> 2:04:20.240 Love DJ D Love because at the time you made 2:04:20.360 --> 2:04:24.040 up a Dame grandmass a flash, wasn't gonna call it 2:04:24.120 --> 2:04:27.240 something Jose and shose some Sallah. You say you made 2:04:27.360 --> 2:04:32.280 up a day to be bigger, So that's what it was. 2:04:32.440 --> 2:04:34.440 But yeah, that was I could have been D Love 2:04:34.600 --> 2:04:38.240 or whatever I'm saying, but that's how I am. I'm 2:04:38.240 --> 2:04:40.240 not that I'm not kicking pre when I wake up 2:04:40.280 --> 2:04:41.760 and up that all day, I don't know. I know 2:04:41.880 --> 2:04:43.720 to turn it off, and I turned it over the 2:04:43.800 --> 2:04:45.320 need to be. But there's some dudes that the body 2:04:45.400 --> 2:04:47.440 this ship all day and they think that they're doing 2:04:47.560 --> 2:04:51.240 people a favor. You're not doing nobody a favor. People 2:04:51.280 --> 2:04:53.320 are doing your favorite and when they cut them lights off, 2:04:53.360 --> 2:04:56.000 you're gonna really see when you are too busy to 2:04:56.040 --> 2:04:59.480 sign an autograph for somebody all of a sudden, YouTube 2:04:59.520 --> 2:05:01.960 busy due busy to a drop for a DJ or 2:05:02.360 --> 2:05:05.080 anybody that needs to drop. You would have you would 2:05:05.120 --> 2:05:07.840 have loved for people to ask you for that before 2:05:07.960 --> 2:05:10.880 you got so now you are you're too busy for that. 2:05:11.080 --> 2:05:12.800 You feel like you're too big for that. You ain't 2:05:12.920 --> 2:05:16.320 ship that before, be too big and then and then 2:05:16.400 --> 2:05:19.040 fall off again. You see DJs do that before. I've 2:05:19.080 --> 2:05:23.080 seen DJs a thetainers and people that's just business be 2:05:23.520 --> 2:05:29.280 very unhumble. First they humble, they get on, they're very unhumbled, 2:05:29.480 --> 2:05:31.560 and then they fall off and they're more humble than 2:05:31.640 --> 2:05:34.600 it was before it was before they started. I've seen 2:05:34.640 --> 2:05:37.200 it over and over again, because people come and go, 2:05:38.720 --> 2:05:40.840 you know, the business coming go. That's why you gotta 2:05:41.000 --> 2:05:43.840 you have to understand that there's always somebody that's more 2:05:43.880 --> 2:05:47.480 talent to you. Listen, Michael Jordan was Michael Jordan's, but 2:05:47.560 --> 2:05:49.360 you don't think there was a Michael Jordans somewhere else 2:05:49.360 --> 2:05:51.280 in the world that was nice that nobody knew about. 2:05:52.000 --> 2:05:53.840 He just didn't have the accolades. He didn't have it 2:05:54.240 --> 2:05:56.720 that was known. There's always gonna be somebody that's good 2:05:57.200 --> 2:06:00.000 or better than you. That's why you have to appreciate 2:06:00.040 --> 2:06:02.560 shape the position you with people would break down all 2:06:02.600 --> 2:06:04.480 to be in a position to me yourself and yourself. 2:06:04.600 --> 2:06:07.800 Is it right? Now? You know how many entertainers that 2:06:08.200 --> 2:06:10.040 y'all have a call yet that would love to be 2:06:10.160 --> 2:06:12.400 in this seat to tell that story and dream champs. 2:06:13.040 --> 2:06:15.480 You see what I'm saying, that's that's a that's a privilege. 2:06:15.800 --> 2:06:18.760 How do you how do you how do you knock that? 2:06:18.960 --> 2:06:21.920 How do you act like that's not a great thing 2:06:22.000 --> 2:06:24.320 for yourself? And how do you treat people less than 2:06:24.800 --> 2:06:28.600 because you're in that position. You was not busy before, 2:06:28.720 --> 2:06:30.880 but now you're too busy to speak to people inside 2:06:30.920 --> 2:06:34.680 autographs that you know it goes head to head. This 2:06:34.760 --> 2:06:36.680 is a business that we in and in order for 2:06:36.720 --> 2:06:38.560 you to be made and stay as long as I have, 2:06:38.680 --> 2:06:40.640 I've been it's been this hot thirty years, never had 2:06:40.680 --> 2:06:43.680 no downtow. You know what I'm saying, I'm a testament 2:06:43.760 --> 2:06:46.760 of it. In order to stay like that, you have 2:06:46.880 --> 2:06:50.200 to treat people fairly. You're not better than nobody. You 2:06:50.280 --> 2:06:53.480 just have a different job, that's all. And people have 2:06:53.560 --> 2:06:56.160 to understand that. Treat everybody with the same respect that's 2:06:56.200 --> 2:07:00.800 it demanded and give it. That's it, no more, no, no, 2:07:00.920 --> 2:07:03.480 no less, and and and and that's what makes you stay. 2:07:03.840 --> 2:07:05.920 That's what made people respect you. And even if you 2:07:06.000 --> 2:07:08.080 fell off, people that was there when you was on 2:07:08.480 --> 2:07:10.640 will always have your back. They will always make sure 2:07:10.680 --> 2:07:13.360 they got you because they see how you treated people 2:07:13.720 --> 2:07:16.520 all the way up. You look, it's not made for everybody. 2:07:16.560 --> 2:07:23.240 The last long I'm saying, nobody will ever last. Everything 2:07:23.360 --> 2:07:26.800 hasn't ended. Everything hasn't ended. But if you're able to 2:07:27.080 --> 2:07:29.839 stay as long as you have, know that that's a blessing. 2:07:30.240 --> 2:07:32.240 Though that there's somebody that wasn't able to do that 2:07:32.360 --> 2:07:35.440 and you was. So with that being said, treat it fairly, 2:07:35.800 --> 2:07:40.080 treated with respect, don't don't you know certain days I 2:07:40.200 --> 2:07:41.480 just see people do I'll be looking on the that 2:07:41.560 --> 2:07:43.400 I'll be looking at that ship like you don't do 2:07:43.480 --> 2:07:46.000 you don't know, like you look stupid. Don't know that 2:07:46.120 --> 2:07:49.120 you play yourself, you don't look Come on, bib, it's 2:07:49.120 --> 2:07:51.040 just so you gotta if you wake up in the morning, 2:07:51.040 --> 2:07:52.720 you look at the mirror, you you gotta know how 2:07:52.800 --> 2:07:56.440 you look. You look. You know, you gotta carry yourself 2:07:56.480 --> 2:07:58.560 a certain way and that that's just I just see 2:07:58.600 --> 2:08:01.480 stuff that was like damn, but you know you can't. 2:08:01.520 --> 2:08:04.880 You can't you responsible. Had everybody moved you ever got 2:08:04.960 --> 2:08:08.120 corner in the East West Coast, West Coast, in the 2:08:08.280 --> 2:08:10.880 middle of the East Coast, West Coast peace. Let's keep 2:08:10.880 --> 2:08:14.320 in mind when the ship thing happened on the source, 2:08:14.480 --> 2:08:17.400 I was an announcer. I was announcing on the television, 2:08:18.000 --> 2:08:21.400 so I'm sitting in the fifth row when it happened. 2:08:22.160 --> 2:08:24.160 The energy in the room felt like anything was gonna 2:08:24.160 --> 2:08:27.520 happened at any time. When our cast came out and 2:08:27.560 --> 2:08:30.680 they got boomed, it wasn't because our cast wasn't good. 2:08:31.200 --> 2:08:33.560 It was the bad day that was going on at 2:08:33.600 --> 2:08:36.760 the moment in the middle of the East Coast, West 2:08:36.800 --> 2:08:39.040 Coast beef. I was going back and forth to California 2:08:39.080 --> 2:08:41.640 out there like it was not for like, I never 2:08:41.720 --> 2:08:44.120 had an issue. I was doing parties with Crips and 2:08:44.160 --> 2:08:46.360 Bluffs and Mesican Games, and I did one party with 2:08:46.440 --> 2:08:48.840 Christal Bluffs and mess Gate. They had this warehouse and 2:08:49.080 --> 2:08:51.080 like some ship was gonna jump off at any time, 2:08:51.920 --> 2:08:56.160 but because of be keeping them occupied so much. That 2:08:56.240 --> 2:08:59.400 sounds amazing though in a warehouse. Chris blufs in the 2:08:59.480 --> 2:09:03.800 Mexicans that it was right in the middle of Hussans 2:09:03.840 --> 2:09:10.040 in Beach, California. And you know, beefs happened in parties 2:09:10.960 --> 2:09:13.920 when people are not occupied with people standing there and 2:09:14.000 --> 2:09:16.160 they grew with each other. They got chance to look 2:09:16.200 --> 2:09:19.360 at each other stok at all that. If you keeping 2:09:19.400 --> 2:09:21.040 people out compella, you making people feel good. You can 2:09:21.080 --> 2:09:23.040 step with somebody's foot. They'd be like, oh, they're gonna way, 2:09:23.080 --> 2:09:27.480 we're are. But if they standing there, they have chance 2:09:27.560 --> 2:09:31.240 to get into ship. I fortunately don't have problems at 2:09:31.280 --> 2:09:33.520 my parties. I would have shootouts. How have gun fights? 2:09:33.520 --> 2:09:36.440 I'm gonna have no kind of fights at my joint. 2:09:36.600 --> 2:09:40.360 Everybody is always having a good time, no better where 2:09:40.440 --> 2:09:43.600 I'm back. And the one they got very proud of 2:09:44.160 --> 2:09:45.560 is if they put a phone up, they put it 2:09:45.640 --> 2:09:47.440 up to see me for a minute, and that pholt 2:09:47.520 --> 2:09:50.080 is down. They having a good time. It's not stand 2:09:50.160 --> 2:09:53.160 on the phone looking cute the phone? Who started that ship? 2:09:53.560 --> 2:09:57.440 Who started this ship? Who started this in the mirror 2:09:57.560 --> 2:10:00.800 looking cute? That dawsonsistic ship. I just get it. And 2:10:00.840 --> 2:10:03.960 I would say this to the chicks. Chicks, if you're 2:10:04.120 --> 2:10:07.800 bad already, you don't need that attention. You don't need 2:10:07.840 --> 2:10:13.280 to put extra ship on it. You're bad already. Let 2:10:13.440 --> 2:10:16.000 us let us push you up. You ain't gonna put 2:10:16.040 --> 2:10:18.200 yourself up through the picture up there, we see that's it. 2:10:18.640 --> 2:10:22.320 All that extra looking at the bever Darson sister. It 2:10:22.400 --> 2:10:24.480 looks stupid to me. I'm gonna be very honest with you. 2:10:26.520 --> 2:10:31.360 That was a dump off. Let's go back on and 2:10:31.400 --> 2:10:34.920 you've been knocking down ship for a long time. Question 2:10:38.800 --> 2:10:41.240 did you finish the thought about in the midst of 2:10:41.320 --> 2:10:44.960 the East Coast West Coast so like in the middle 2:10:44.960 --> 2:10:47.320 of the East Coast West Coast beef, I'm going back 2:10:47.360 --> 2:10:50.320 and still go to the west still probably the only one. 2:10:50.600 --> 2:10:52.960 Let me just tell you something straight up. Definitely an 2:10:53.440 --> 2:10:55.880 it was so bad at one point, and I think 2:10:56.760 --> 2:10:59.680 after I got WHOA, I'm just doing something with that. 2:11:00.800 --> 2:11:03.120 And as soon as I landed in l A that 2:11:03.200 --> 2:11:06.040 had security for me, like they're like three, Like that's 2:11:06.040 --> 2:11:08.160 how bad it was, Like you couldn't even tell them. 2:11:08.200 --> 2:11:10.840 I would tell you why. I think why I was sold. 2:11:10.880 --> 2:11:12.840 When you say you he was doing in the West Coast. 2:11:13.080 --> 2:11:16.240 This is before Big pass after this is during the 2:11:16.480 --> 2:11:19.880 middle of the v It's in the middle of the beef, 2:11:20.200 --> 2:11:22.160 And I think the reason why I was sold I 2:11:22.240 --> 2:11:24.880 didn't catch any issues or any plots because I was 2:11:25.040 --> 2:11:30.040 always supporting the West Coast. I was the first to 2:11:30.160 --> 2:11:32.720 play let me let me go here. I was the 2:11:32.760 --> 2:11:35.280 first to play Ghetto Boys by playing tricks on me 2:11:35.960 --> 2:11:40.280 on radio. That's why the very first award that I 2:11:40.480 --> 2:11:45.320 ever got was for the Ghett Boys was the Biolay Tricks. 2:11:45.520 --> 2:11:47.280 That was my first award before any ward. I was 2:11:47.400 --> 2:11:50.480 because I made that hot Hot in New York. Say 2:11:50.640 --> 2:11:53.520 they were outcasts. I made Southern Catia playing list in 2:11:53.560 --> 2:11:56.640 Cadillac Music Hot New York before I played on radio, 2:11:56.680 --> 2:11:59.600 Before any party played there was never played these records, 2:12:00.200 --> 2:12:03.440 what I'm saying. So I built up with West Coast. 2:12:03.600 --> 2:12:05.920 I was playing at w A and I'm not the 2:12:06.000 --> 2:12:08.120 reason for it blowing up to New York, but I 2:12:08.360 --> 2:12:12.120 was so indulged in being in the West Coast parties 2:12:12.160 --> 2:12:15.040 and doing parties out there. Def Comedy Ja was out there. 2:12:15.080 --> 2:12:17.080 It was just going crazy. It was just really big. 2:12:17.160 --> 2:12:20.240 So I caught a lot of respect in the West 2:12:20.320 --> 2:12:22.960 Coast because of the work I was putting there before 2:12:23.080 --> 2:12:25.480 the beef happened. You see, I'm saying, so where the 2:12:25.560 --> 2:12:28.960 beef happened there, I've never had that issue. I would 2:12:29.000 --> 2:12:32.520 be in the worst, deadliest places and everything would work 2:12:32.560 --> 2:12:36.560 out good because I respect everybody. I respect everybody. It 2:12:36.640 --> 2:12:38.400 doesn't matter where you come. For me. Where you at. 2:12:38.960 --> 2:12:41.680 You know, nobody's better than nobody. Yeah, we started hip 2:12:41.720 --> 2:12:43.720 hop and we was the first once we were, you know. 2:12:43.840 --> 2:12:48.440 But I told cool Hurt, you know her, what do 2:12:48.520 --> 2:12:51.480 you think her? I told her, what do you think 2:12:51.520 --> 2:12:53.760 it's gonna stay in the box. It's never gonna stay 2:12:53.800 --> 2:12:56.640 The bob was so big, it's gonna go out the 2:12:56.720 --> 2:12:59.720 world like and that's what it is. And that's it. 2:13:00.200 --> 2:13:03.520 You have to treat everybody with the same about the respect. 2:13:03.720 --> 2:13:06.000 But okay, I asked this to other people on the show, 2:13:06.200 --> 2:13:09.080 and from your viewpoint, did you think that the beef 2:13:09.400 --> 2:13:13.440 was East Coast first West Coast. It wasn't crew versus crew. 2:13:13.880 --> 2:13:18.400 It was it was one person against one person. And 2:13:18.520 --> 2:13:21.600 because this these two people have so much of influence 2:13:21.760 --> 2:13:26.000 on both coasts, the coast got involved too many people 2:13:26.040 --> 2:13:27.880 on each side of It was just the coast guy. 2:13:27.960 --> 2:13:31.320 It wasn't a coast against coast. It was I got 2:13:31.680 --> 2:13:34.560 I got Biggs back, I got Pops back. That was 2:13:36.280 --> 2:13:38.680 so it was that it was not It wasn't a 2:13:38.760 --> 2:13:41.640 thing where East Coast hated the West coast me of 2:13:41.720 --> 2:13:43.720 course that at the West Coast hated. It wasn't that 2:13:43.840 --> 2:13:46.720 it was pockets repper to eat its repper to West. 2:13:46.800 --> 2:13:49.480 All right, Well I got his back, period, that's it, 2:13:50.440 --> 2:13:54.520 And that's loyalty. That's what loyalty is. You got somebody's 2:13:54.560 --> 2:13:58.160 back that represents you can't be bad at that. But 2:13:58.320 --> 2:14:02.520 where the problem business that it became deadly. It became deadly. 2:14:02.640 --> 2:14:05.320 This was supposed to be a pocket, big diet. This 2:14:05.480 --> 2:14:08.960 is music. We're gonna die for music. It's supposed to 2:14:09.000 --> 2:14:10.600 be something that bring joy to our life and bring 2:14:10.680 --> 2:14:12.680 money to our pocket and may bring joy the other body. 2:14:12.760 --> 2:14:14.839 Everybody's let me take the ship a little too serious. 2:14:15.520 --> 2:14:17.280 That's why with all this game, ship coming into it 2:14:17.680 --> 2:14:19.960 in the music and all that, that's not for the music. Bro. 2:14:20.560 --> 2:14:22.800 We're watched all these people die. Really but like this 2:14:22.960 --> 2:14:28.680 is music kids, it's kids. They don't see their future. 2:14:28.920 --> 2:14:31.440 A lot of people I feel like they're gonna live 2:14:31.440 --> 2:14:35.360 past five Definitely, they're gonna past certain times. So they 2:14:35.440 --> 2:14:38.360 do shirt and ship to try to get as much 2:14:38.480 --> 2:14:40.720 in before they go where they think. You know what 2:14:40.720 --> 2:14:43.120 I'm saying. But it's not like that man, you know, 2:14:43.280 --> 2:14:45.800 and that lotal life to live with a lot of 2:14:45.840 --> 2:14:47.800 ship to do me for your cup up? You know 2:14:47.800 --> 2:14:52.520 what I mean? Absolutely black excellence. Absolutely you know, got done. 2:14:53.720 --> 2:15:01.080 Holy moly, kind of holding myself man, shots shot there 2:15:01.120 --> 2:15:04.120 you go, and I'm holding myself pretty good? Is I don't? 2:15:04.520 --> 2:15:08.120 Keep in mind? Yeah, I'm proud of you. Do you don't. 2:15:09.120 --> 2:15:13.200 Let's take it to track master days now you what 2:15:13.320 --> 2:15:16.160 you done with track? My sisters a producer. No, what 2:15:16.280 --> 2:15:19.440 happened was I was signed to Columbia, not the track. 2:15:23.600 --> 2:15:26.560 They didn't have a deal yet when I got I signed. 2:15:26.840 --> 2:15:29.640 I was signed to Columbia and I did the first album, 2:15:30.240 --> 2:15:33.160 the A and R. At that time lost my dad 2:15:33.280 --> 2:15:38.200 tape to the album the Master that so I told him, fuck, y'all, 2:15:38.800 --> 2:15:42.440 I'm not doing the while when you lose my fucking dad. Really, So, 2:15:42.680 --> 2:15:44.920 for five years I was signed to Columbia. I was 2:15:44.960 --> 2:15:47.320 already hot, sizzling doing what I'm doing. I didn't need 2:15:47.360 --> 2:15:50.520 no record. So for five years they helped I was 2:15:50.640 --> 2:15:53.480 there and didn't do nothing. They just helped me sign. 2:15:53.920 --> 2:15:55.400 So then one day they called me and said, yo, 2:15:55.480 --> 2:15:57.520 we just put track passes with Columbia. We want to 2:15:57.560 --> 2:16:01.200 put track masses with you to do your album being 2:16:01.200 --> 2:16:03.040 in our new tone and poke. I was like, you know, 2:16:03.120 --> 2:16:06.440 I know them like cool and we end up doing 2:16:06.440 --> 2:16:08.440 the album. I produced all the ship track bassars that 2:16:08.520 --> 2:16:11.760 they did. They did the Foxy Brown record with the Locks, 2:16:12.080 --> 2:16:14.240 and they did the remix to the Unity record. Everything 2:16:14.280 --> 2:16:17.400 else I did. Norvy came. We did the album that day. 2:16:17.520 --> 2:16:20.400 Norvey came. Pun It was crazy, puned. He came to 2:16:20.480 --> 2:16:23.960 the studio. I was recording the Lords Boys, and I 2:16:24.040 --> 2:16:25.800 took the Lords Boys out of the studio. I put 2:16:25.840 --> 2:16:28.640 Punt in. Punt came there with his wife and his kids. 2:16:29.440 --> 2:16:32.600 He pulled a cheer up, sat in the chair, did 2:16:32.680 --> 2:16:34.640 one verse, did when at but without the booth for 2:16:34.680 --> 2:16:36.320 fifteen minutes. He had all those people. He had his 2:16:36.400 --> 2:16:38.120 wife and his kids sitting around him while he was 2:16:38.200 --> 2:16:41.280 doing his verse. He was out the booth. That's the record. 2:16:41.320 --> 2:16:44.520 You meet him and meet him on that record and um, 2:16:45.480 --> 2:16:50.000 and that's how that happened. As it fantastic. It was 2:16:50.080 --> 2:16:55.439 crazy that story visors Remy Mars recollection and your recollection 2:16:55.520 --> 2:16:58.400 of Punt having his family around him. Yeah, that Punt 2:16:58.440 --> 2:17:01.080 want no joke when he came to that. Yeah. So 2:17:01.360 --> 2:17:04.000 what's your favorite thing right now? Is it making the 2:17:04.120 --> 2:17:06.680 music or performing the music or playing the music? Yours 2:17:06.760 --> 2:17:09.960 is a three part question. Making the music, performing the 2:17:10.080 --> 2:17:15.959 music or playing I love it all man one if 2:17:16.000 --> 2:17:20.080 I could pick what playing the music, but I like 2:17:20.320 --> 2:17:23.160 I love making the music. I love you know righting. 2:17:23.240 --> 2:17:26.480 I love being able to see people dancing to my ship. 2:17:26.800 --> 2:17:30.280 If I played in the club, or if somebody playing 2:17:30.320 --> 2:17:32.120 in the car. If it's just like I walked to here, 2:17:32.200 --> 2:17:34.040 y'all was playing the apple over here. That makes me 2:17:34.160 --> 2:17:36.520 feel like, dad, kid, you really did good. You did 2:17:36.600 --> 2:17:38.160 your ship. But let me ask you why you stay 2:17:38.200 --> 2:17:40.879 playing the music, because I remember when he plays the music, 2:17:41.000 --> 2:17:45.320 he also performs it right with him. It's been times 2:17:45.440 --> 2:17:48.440 like I've been having shows and like polling or something 2:17:48.600 --> 2:17:54.119 like that, or you know, Doozo Dolf Germany or something, 2:17:54.160 --> 2:17:56.640 and I will go there at six o'clock. You know, 2:17:56.720 --> 2:17:58.320 even though the doors over the nine. This is a 2:17:58.360 --> 2:17:59.880 regular ship like out here, and I'll go to that 2:18:00.200 --> 2:18:04.160 clock and see people there. All right, you're gonna try 2:18:04.200 --> 2:18:07.440 to shut down. So is it like that when you 2:18:07.520 --> 2:18:09.400 when you when you DJ and where you're sitting there 2:18:09.800 --> 2:18:13.120 and you do you walk into clubs? And do you 2:18:13.280 --> 2:18:16.840 do you in my backstage when I'm in my dressing mood, 2:18:17.600 --> 2:18:22.080 my thing is gym. How's the crowd of your carback 2:18:22.240 --> 2:18:25.760 is like this, like that if you put any crowding 2:18:25.800 --> 2:18:28.959 for the beat brushes. Here's here's a deal to say 2:18:29.040 --> 2:18:31.240 people that the fifty thousand that I might be in 2:18:31.320 --> 2:18:35.320 front of, if fifty people came, they're gonna get the 2:18:35.320 --> 2:18:39.320 same energy is a fifty. It's no different, he said. 2:18:39.320 --> 2:18:43.880 I'm saying especially, it's no different. That energy is always 2:18:43.920 --> 2:18:47.400 gonna be what it's going to be. Right, But there's 2:18:47.440 --> 2:18:51.760 even it goes even further than that. Promona may called 2:18:51.800 --> 2:18:55.360 me and do everything that I expected to doing my 2:18:55.560 --> 2:18:59.880 on my riding, right, and there's something like grade happens 2:19:00.840 --> 2:19:05.280 where only fifty people may come. All right, I'll turn 2:19:05.360 --> 2:19:07.080 that promoter. You'll go set up something, come to do 2:19:07.160 --> 2:19:10.200 it for free, ex up another jokey, I'm gonna come 2:19:10.280 --> 2:19:12.800 do it for free. Where the other artists who say 2:19:12.840 --> 2:19:15.840 yo's at the guard, they gotta do with me, get 2:19:15.959 --> 2:19:19.520 my money. I'm out. That's promoter would say, your kid 2:19:19.640 --> 2:19:22.039 got me with with I'm down kid, They're gonna kick 2:19:22.080 --> 2:19:24.600 me further. You're gonna make sharp good so that he 2:19:24.640 --> 2:19:27.760 has we cut back six more times that year. Fine, right, 2:19:28.240 --> 2:19:32.280 but yeah, because things can happen, you don't want to 2:19:32.320 --> 2:19:34.080 just take buddy. For promoters, you want to make sure 2:19:34.120 --> 2:19:36.360 that they're good, you know what I'm saying. And a 2:19:36.440 --> 2:19:38.960 lot of times sometimes we just get into old ship 2:19:39.280 --> 2:19:42.160 some promoters because there's some Jakie promotas out there. But 2:19:42.240 --> 2:19:45.400 you shouldn't be dealing with Jackie promoters. Is up to 2:19:45.440 --> 2:19:49.879 you to cricket to separate you from mainly Jenki permot exactly, 2:19:49.959 --> 2:19:52.000 and only that you need to know your worth and 2:19:52.080 --> 2:19:58.440 that promoters out here okay. And you you stop after 2:19:58.520 --> 2:20:05.000 that point, you then lose. They lose. I gotta take 2:20:05.080 --> 2:20:09.720 this ship, but I know he's a ship on somebody 2:20:09.800 --> 2:20:11.680 that you know it's going to bring the money. Always 2:20:11.720 --> 2:20:15.080 did a great great business, always does his job. It's 2:20:15.120 --> 2:20:18.959 the wrong thing because people think short term. I always 2:20:19.000 --> 2:20:22.360 thought long term. That's why I was able to stay 2:20:22.440 --> 2:20:26.320 thirty something years heavy no downtop because I think long term. 2:20:26.360 --> 2:20:28.520 I don't think the short. So a lot of times 2:20:28.640 --> 2:20:31.199 say short we kill yourself, And a lot of promoters 2:20:31.240 --> 2:20:32.879 do that. They they want to get the quick money 2:20:32.879 --> 2:20:36.320 and and cut corners in New Orleans. If you're not 2:20:36.480 --> 2:20:38.480 ready to be a promoter, don't be one. It's as 2:20:38.520 --> 2:20:42.039 simple as that. The promoter is very hard. It's hard, 2:20:42.360 --> 2:20:43.960 That's what I'm saying. If you got ready for it, 2:20:44.200 --> 2:20:47.240 don't do That's why I never did it myself around 2:20:47.240 --> 2:20:49.520 the country as they popular and they got cloud in 2:20:49.600 --> 2:20:51.720 the city that they could just promote a party and 2:20:51.800 --> 2:20:54.480 then the crazy ship is your homies is not enough 2:20:54.760 --> 2:20:57.400 because you think you're gonna write your homies and your 2:20:57.400 --> 2:21:01.520 home your funny ship when the promote this trying to 2:21:01.600 --> 2:21:03.520 be bigger than the artists on the flyer. Why are 2:21:03.520 --> 2:21:06.000 you putting yourself big on the flyer? Why are you 2:21:06.120 --> 2:21:09.840 making yourself like a real promoter? I said this on 2:21:09.920 --> 2:21:12.880 the EBO show. The real Promotera does real business. He 2:21:12.959 --> 2:21:15.200 puts his name small on there. He's a production and 2:21:15.320 --> 2:21:17.240 he makes the flyer the way it's supposed to be. 2:21:17.600 --> 2:21:20.160 Now it's about you and everybody else is but litterally 2:21:20.160 --> 2:21:23.120 you what do you try to do? You want to 2:21:23.120 --> 2:21:25.240 be a star. You're not talented, and this is where 2:21:25.280 --> 2:21:27.440 your this is how you get your attention. Like, that's 2:21:27.480 --> 2:21:30.120 not that's not the way that it's I don't joine 2:21:30.200 --> 2:21:39.480 with Lee. He wants Mr Lee's OFFICI know what I'm saying, like, 2:21:39.760 --> 2:21:41.800 and that's what I'm saying like, you have certain promoters 2:21:41.879 --> 2:21:43.520 that really want to do the business, and they have 2:21:43.640 --> 2:21:46.040 certain promoters that want to be in it for the 2:21:46.080 --> 2:21:48.000 wrong reasons, just like you have entertainments that would it 2:21:48.000 --> 2:21:49.160 be in it for the wrong reasons. They want to 2:21:49.200 --> 2:21:51.320 be with the bitches. They want to be cute. I'm 2:21:51.320 --> 2:21:52.959 not gonna say bitches women. I don't really call up 2:21:53.000 --> 2:21:57.520 with provisions, but they they want to be with the 2:21:57.640 --> 2:22:01.000 cute ship they see, but they don't see the hard 2:22:01.040 --> 2:22:04.440 work that goes into it. And that's where you test 2:22:04.480 --> 2:22:07.400 who's who. That's when you see who's who. If they 2:22:07.480 --> 2:22:11.080 willing to sustain, if they able to sustain what they've 2:22:11.120 --> 2:22:13.800 been doing for a certain long time, certain boy the time, 2:22:14.120 --> 2:22:16.320 and be comfortable with it and be willing to deal 2:22:16.400 --> 2:22:20.120 with the downfalls as well as the ups. You know, 2:22:20.480 --> 2:22:22.640 it's this business is a cutthrow business. A lot of 2:22:22.640 --> 2:22:25.360 people are shitty at this business. You know what I'm 2:22:25.360 --> 2:22:29.280 saying that. You know, that's why I don't ask somebody 2:22:29.320 --> 2:22:31.440 for nothing. Listen to my album. I could have asked 2:22:31.440 --> 2:22:33.120 anybody to be on my album. I could have asked 2:22:33.160 --> 2:22:34.720 any man. You know, they would have heard a quarter 2:22:34.840 --> 2:22:37.160 of my album and say yeah, kid, hell yeah, because 2:22:37.160 --> 2:22:38.840 that's one of the very first things is when they 2:22:38.879 --> 2:22:43.360 see DJ DJ and then kicking pre but DJ, they 2:22:43.400 --> 2:22:45.680 always think it's gonna be features, it's gonna be it's 2:22:45.680 --> 2:22:51.000 gonna be a future thing, compilation. This is serious. This 2:22:51.160 --> 2:22:53.680 is serious, and it makes rappers that have been during 2:22:53.760 --> 2:22:55.240 this for long years say, yeah, this is like a 2:22:55.320 --> 2:22:57.560 kid serious. Stop it's not no joke. To stop, no 2:22:57.640 --> 2:23:01.240 playing that. I'm not my pizza crazy. The bars is crazy. 2:23:01.560 --> 2:23:03.800 Everything is crazy. I asked no help. I asked for 2:23:03.920 --> 2:23:07.080 my daughter la vela RV artist, and Mr y Mr 2:23:07.200 --> 2:23:09.680 lexta reggae artists to bild it. And that's it, and 2:23:12.040 --> 2:23:27.959 I see joy. I'm pretty good. All right, that's been killing. 2:23:52.440 --> 2:23:56.120 So we've conquered it all we've done. We've conquered death, comedy, jam, 2:23:56.400 --> 2:24:01.680 We've done you know, movies, TV shows, we've you know, scored, 2:24:01.760 --> 2:24:07.000 worked with with Donna, jay Z, jay Z met everybody, everybody, 2:24:07.160 --> 2:24:11.840 what the fund could be next for you? Well, I'm 2:24:11.879 --> 2:24:15.640 always trying to create opportunities for other people. So I 2:24:15.760 --> 2:24:20.000 did this album hopefully. You know, first of all, we 2:24:20.040 --> 2:24:23.039 say this, I don't have no machine behind me. I'm 2:24:23.160 --> 2:24:26.680 putting I'm independent. I put it out myself. I'm depending 2:24:26.680 --> 2:24:30.320 on the music being as good enough to carry. We're 2:24:30.360 --> 2:24:33.040 doing what we do to make it happen. But you know, 2:24:33.480 --> 2:24:35.080 like I said, and that's the artists, to be honest. 2:24:35.120 --> 2:24:36.320 So it's this this thing I just want to I 2:24:36.440 --> 2:24:39.280 just felt like doing. But at the same time, I 2:24:39.360 --> 2:24:42.000 have other people that I'm working with and trying to 2:24:42.160 --> 2:24:45.959 uh create opportunities for them, and that's been that's always 2:24:46.000 --> 2:24:49.959 been my thing. So with that being said, Sucker Freed, 2:24:50.080 --> 2:24:53.200 the and the Real Estate, the new albums I got 2:24:53.280 --> 2:24:55.600 coming to new stuff. I'm always gonna keep moving to 2:24:55.720 --> 2:24:58.280 keep going. I don't know what I'm want to end 2:24:58.360 --> 2:25:02.960 up with later because I'm nowhere near done. You know 2:25:03.000 --> 2:25:04.879 what I'm saying. Like some people being as been as 2:25:04.920 --> 2:25:06.720 ten years and they've done, I've been here thirty some 2:25:06.959 --> 2:25:09.200 years and moving and in my ear is still as 2:25:09.360 --> 2:25:11.680 sharp as it ever been. You know what I'm saying. 2:25:11.680 --> 2:25:15.520 You can hear it in the Love album. So I'm 2:25:15.600 --> 2:25:18.200 just gonna keep doing what I'm doing and create in 2:25:18.280 --> 2:25:21.560 and and just keep creating opportunities and just doing things 2:25:21.640 --> 2:25:24.720 and making sure that that they know that I'm not 2:25:24.879 --> 2:25:27.440 just one thing. You know what I'm saying I'm not 2:25:27.560 --> 2:25:29.440 just one thing. I'm a trip with threat And at 2:25:29.480 --> 2:25:31.880 the end of the day, that's what it's about being 2:25:31.920 --> 2:25:35.000 able to um, not that nobody stop you from just 2:25:35.120 --> 2:25:36.480 being what you want to be. You do what you 2:25:36.520 --> 2:25:39.560 want to do, you know, and UM, it's been fortunate 2:25:39.640 --> 2:25:41.640 for me. I got God in my life. I expect, 2:25:41.760 --> 2:25:45.800 I expect my faith, and I appreciate the spirit. And 2:25:46.000 --> 2:25:50.400 that's first that that's what brings everything to to home, 2:25:50.600 --> 2:25:54.640 because without that, none of this is possible. So that's 2:25:54.680 --> 2:25:57.080 why I look at first and then everything else. So 2:25:57.560 --> 2:26:00.200 I'm just gonna keep it going. And what they next 2:26:00.240 --> 2:26:02.880 thing is who knows. I mean, right now I have 2:26:03.000 --> 2:26:06.000 the album out, so the movie is coming and all 2:26:06.040 --> 2:26:08.840 this other stuff, But right now, I just want people 2:26:08.840 --> 2:26:10.280 to hear this album. I want people to listen to 2:26:10.360 --> 2:26:12.240 it from the beginning to end the fielding and understand 2:26:12.280 --> 2:26:15.160 that it's not just a record that got two records 2:26:15.200 --> 2:26:16.879 on it. A lot of times we get caught up 2:26:16.920 --> 2:26:19.640 in we're gonna have our one two records, help us surprise, 2:26:19.720 --> 2:26:22.240 help us to carry us. Now, we got a body 2:26:22.280 --> 2:26:24.680 of work here. So love album. It's something that you'll 2:26:24.680 --> 2:26:29.640 should hear well really quick. What what would be your 2:26:29.760 --> 2:26:36.600 advice to someone just getting started in this industry in 2:26:36.800 --> 2:26:41.760 terms of longevity, because not everybody's gonna have the longety nobody, 2:26:41.840 --> 2:26:43.480 I don't know. There's not many people can say they 2:26:43.520 --> 2:26:46.119 have the longevity you have. You gotta be you gotta 2:26:46.120 --> 2:26:49.400 be a leader, the leader. Don't be a follower. Don't 2:26:49.400 --> 2:26:53.560 be a trend a trendy dude, set the trend. Don't 2:26:53.600 --> 2:26:59.000 be for the time, be timeless. You know. And even 2:26:59.040 --> 2:27:01.760 when you when you've been in in a business as 2:27:01.800 --> 2:27:03.920 long as I have, you're gonna have some downtime too. 2:27:03.959 --> 2:27:06.400 It's gonna be sometimes where things look like it's getting 2:27:06.400 --> 2:27:10.600 a little shaky. The testament is how you keep it going. 2:27:10.720 --> 2:27:12.960 It's the testament is how you bounce back and keep moving. 2:27:13.720 --> 2:27:18.280 You gotta keep in mind. My influence made DJ's talking 2:27:18.320 --> 2:27:22.000 to Mike. My influence made DJ's play records quick look 2:27:22.040 --> 2:27:23.680 a certain way. As to that you're just looking like 2:27:23.800 --> 2:27:26.640 somebody behind, somebody looking at homely, now you look like 2:27:26.680 --> 2:27:29.920 a star kicking pre did that? You know what I'm saying, 2:27:30.000 --> 2:27:32.000 Let's not let's not get it twisted in no kind 2:27:32.040 --> 2:27:34.080 of way. People would do things and make it started 2:27:34.080 --> 2:27:37.520 to make you think it started with them, right, I'm 2:27:37.560 --> 2:27:39.640 not here to sit there putting your face what I 2:27:39.800 --> 2:27:41.640 did and all that. I'm here to show you what 2:27:41.800 --> 2:27:44.960 the real is. But at the same time, with the 2:27:45.080 --> 2:27:47.720 DJ business have been the way it been, had I 2:27:47.840 --> 2:27:50.720 not done what I did, you got a question that 2:27:51.840 --> 2:27:53.920 would there be a chalid would there be a clue? 2:27:54.000 --> 2:27:56.760 Would there be these different people that done what they 2:27:56.800 --> 2:27:59.200 did after the fact. Had I not done what I 2:27:59.320 --> 2:28:02.320 did with the bit with the business, you know, shout 2:28:02.400 --> 2:28:04.920 to all of them. They all did great. But it 2:28:05.120 --> 2:28:08.640 started with me saying, let me sit on that street 2:28:08.680 --> 2:28:10.680 corner and sell these mixed tapes, no matter how anybody 2:28:10.760 --> 2:28:13.879 look at me, no matter how anybody for I had 2:28:13.959 --> 2:28:18.400 girls driving by and cars fly, chicks laughing at me 2:28:19.320 --> 2:28:21.000 because I'm sitting on the street corner some of the 2:28:21.040 --> 2:28:25.360 tapes like I'm so listening. I put fourteen gold chains 2:28:25.400 --> 2:28:27.680 on my neck just to look like I'm doing good 2:28:29.240 --> 2:28:32.160 straight up, because you're doing good, but they don't think 2:28:32.160 --> 2:28:36.480 you're doing You gotta actually show you doing. I gotta 2:28:36.520 --> 2:28:38.840 show I'm gonna good, so I throw the four cheene James, 2:28:38.879 --> 2:28:42.400 I sit a certain with you know, and I'm thir 2:28:42.440 --> 2:28:45.520 old Son dudes ain't gonna try me, like you know, 2:28:45.680 --> 2:28:47.680 and they all know how to play. So that was 2:28:47.720 --> 2:28:50.840 another thing. But more than that, you know, chick see 2:28:51.000 --> 2:28:53.320 see that, it was like it was like a game. 2:28:53.400 --> 2:28:56.039 Like it was funny. All right, y'all gonna laughed. Now, 2:28:56.160 --> 2:28:59.920 watch what happened That following year. I was on television. 2:29:00.680 --> 2:29:02.840 That following you had an album. That following year I 2:29:02.920 --> 2:29:06.000 was on the radio. Everything was bad because I took 2:29:06.120 --> 2:29:08.040 my pride and swallowed it and said, you know what, 2:29:08.360 --> 2:29:10.080 I'm not too big to sit on the street corner 2:29:10.080 --> 2:29:12.440 and trying to keep it pop. Well, a lot of 2:29:12.560 --> 2:29:14.760 dudes and think they're too big to do certain things, 2:29:14.840 --> 2:29:17.400 and Nabby, I'll do it this way and it's gonna 2:29:17.440 --> 2:29:19.680 made me move. And that's what made me do every day. 2:29:20.520 --> 2:29:22.800 From there, I went to death comedy jam, comedians that 2:29:22.879 --> 2:29:25.600 nobody knew. We took those comedians. I went back to 2:29:25.640 --> 2:29:27.880 the beginning to those comedians. We made them big. Bernie 2:29:27.920 --> 2:29:31.080 mac all these dudes got became big. Game of platform 2:29:31.720 --> 2:29:35.160 came back to the Internet. I was sitting on the Internet, 2:29:35.680 --> 2:29:37.720 playing on Peple Scope. I had thirty people on there, 2:29:38.400 --> 2:29:40.680 you looking at me saying, you know this legend got 2:29:40.760 --> 2:29:43.320 thirty people on this and it fell off. B No, 2:29:43.720 --> 2:29:45.280 my mind set was I'm gonna go back to the 2:29:45.360 --> 2:29:47.320 mixtape sitting on the street corner when nobody knew me, 2:29:48.080 --> 2:29:50.680 and then make it grow. You know what I'm saying, 2:29:51.000 --> 2:29:53.080 And that's how I went because I'm not scared to 2:29:53.160 --> 2:29:55.600 go back to the beginning. You know what I'm saying, 2:29:55.720 --> 2:29:59.200 And that's how you stayed not it's scared to build again, 2:29:59.240 --> 2:30:01.280 to start over, you know what I'm saying, And that's 2:30:01.280 --> 2:30:04.080 how you stay relevant when you don't do the same 2:30:04.160 --> 2:30:06.160 thing all the time, you were able to do other things. 2:30:06.240 --> 2:30:08.400 That's why I'm doing this album, producing it right in 2:30:08.440 --> 2:30:10.400 it come on as good as it is. Like, we 2:30:10.480 --> 2:30:12.760 can't front on it. You can say whatever. I don't 2:30:12.760 --> 2:30:15.080 care how old you are, young you are. You cannot 2:30:15.160 --> 2:30:19.760 say that love album is not Hessen. There's no way 2:30:19.800 --> 2:30:21.440 you can't say the album is hot. So at the 2:30:21.480 --> 2:30:22.880 end of the day, when you listen to you know, 2:30:23.040 --> 2:30:25.080 I stay in it. So that's what it's about, man, 2:30:25.160 --> 2:30:27.680 Just so taking care of your customers and just loving 2:30:27.760 --> 2:30:36.959 what you do. Man, I feel like that's figure sex. 2:30:37.160 --> 2:30:41.120 The motherfucker feelings that the Holy molycame only you got 2:30:41.120 --> 2:30:44.000 anything else, let's go, man.

I don't know 2:30:55.840 --> 2:30:57.680 if this is a question. It might be more of 2:30:57.720 --> 2:31:04.400 a statement. Kicking pre tapes and I know I've said 2:31:04.440 --> 2:31:07.600 this to you maybe off the record, and maybe that's 2:31:07.720 --> 2:31:09.440 kind of corny. Should have said this to you on 2:31:09.600 --> 2:31:13.520 the record. At one point I used to wake up 2:31:13.920 --> 2:31:18.160 and get a kicking pre tap as if that was 2:31:18.240 --> 2:31:23.240 me getting fly. Somebody said that to me like that 2:31:23.360 --> 2:31:27.160 was a part of my outfit right, and did not 2:31:27.400 --> 2:31:34.160 have a kicking pre take to go with it. I 2:31:34.320 --> 2:31:37.760 know this just makes sense to nobody as young know 2:31:37.760 --> 2:31:40.160 what I'm saying, Like I had to have by a 2:31:40.240 --> 2:31:47.800 number seventeen to be like yeah, yeah, yeah, I didn't 2:31:47.840 --> 2:31:49.959 have a tape to go with it, like you were 2:31:50.040 --> 2:31:52.640 kind of like because it's like like and we didn't 2:31:52.680 --> 2:31:55.320 have cars back there, so like I said earlier, we 2:31:55.360 --> 2:31:59.000 would do O J's, the National Calves, the Experienced Calves 2:31:59.080 --> 2:32:02.560 and Queen's Bridge, and what we would do is we 2:32:02.640 --> 2:32:05.680 would get in and we fly. But you gotta have 2:32:05.800 --> 2:32:09.800 fire your seventeen. You got a certain tape to make 2:32:09.840 --> 2:32:14.320 you feel the same way. And and and my earliest, 2:32:14.720 --> 2:32:17.560 beautifulest memory of going up towns has always been kicking 2:32:17.600 --> 2:32:21.160 pre tapes. And I just want you to know, like, 2:32:22.040 --> 2:32:23.960 if you listen to the record I did with jay Z, 2:32:24.080 --> 2:32:25.480 that the one I want to grant me for us 2:32:25.600 --> 2:32:29.640 like that, right, if you listen to it, if you listen, 2:32:30.280 --> 2:32:33.160 but if you listen, like if you're listen to this 2:32:33.360 --> 2:32:35.760 like that, that's what I was doing mix tape ship 2:32:35.840 --> 2:32:38.280 on that on the record. Put your hands up, Yeah, 2:32:38.760 --> 2:32:40.240 you know what saying? This kid could bringing jay Z. 2:32:40.400 --> 2:32:43.680 It's it's it was the same. It was a mixtape 2:32:43.760 --> 2:32:46.240 party field.
