Right now, talking to Jim 0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:34.000 Jones is more powerful than talking to camera. Talking to 0:01:34.080 --> 0:01:36.759 Juwel's is more powerful than talking to cameraon right now 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:41.280 because right now, if people are not understanding, it is the. 0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:43.120 Hour of the man next to the man. 0:01:43.880 --> 0:01:47.720 You're getting a perspective that like because you've heard I mean, 0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:49.400 there's how many fifty cent interviews are there? 0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:51.760 Yep? But when you're here Tony Yo's. 0:01:51.440 --> 0:01:53.960 Perspective exactly because he was there for all of this 0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:54.920 crazy shit, Like. 0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:55.840 You follow fifty cent. 0:01:56.400 --> 0:01:58.880 Like so if you follow fifty right and you can 0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:01.600 look at it, he's he's in all these luxurious places, 0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:04.520 but it's nothing to him.

So they're sitting there and they're 0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:18.560 they're like, yo, man, I want my steak well done. 0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:19.400 You know what I'm saying. 0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:23.320 Like, and to me, I would invest right now as 0:02:23.520 --> 0:02:27.480 a person who studying algorithms, I would invest in Tony Yoyo. 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:31.600 Like if I had a chance to, I did. 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:35.680 I did.

And he's like what 0:13:16.720 --> 0:13:18.679 he's like is he saying this is a body? So 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:20.680 I'm like, let's let's let's play off for that, like 0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:23.360 there's a body and I come see you and he's like, 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:27.120 that's genius. And we just wrote the ship and I 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:29.600 remember Jungle and the homie coming in and just looking 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:34.760 at us like just stole the whole ship. I'm like, yeah, 0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:37.160 playing with the ship. That was a dope concept, you 0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:39.200 know what I'm saying. So f we did it because 0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:41.000 the way we describe it, like you see the queen 0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:43.840 shirt right there, those queen shirts, the seven line that's 0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:45.920 all queens, like how we're describing it. 0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:48.040 The two or four that's two four is the school 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:49.200 that Nas went to. 0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:51.680 So if you listen to if you're from that area, 0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:55.040 like we really described something like I want to do 0:13:55.280 --> 0:13:59.000 the video to it like in real time like nowadays, 0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:01.600 like like I want to do like a real uh 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:04.080 uh uh. It's like a mini film. And let me 0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:09.719 not let me not forget Dame Grease. Dame Grease. A 0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:11.839 lot of people forget him in this because it was 0:14:11.880 --> 0:14:14.760 me and Nash who did the record, but Dame came 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:17.480 and made all those sounds or all. 0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:19.160 The sound effects that make movie. 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:22.200 Yeah, he produced the ship out of that record, So 0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:25.520 a lot of people don't so Dame Grease. And and yeah, 0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:28.120 that's one of my favorite records, four hundred degrees from Juvenile. 0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:30.160 He just shot a video for that song. Like twenty 0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:33.040 years later. You should do something body. 0:14:32.840 --> 0:14:36.400 And the Trump Bloody Money like three years ago that 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:38.640 that was my first thing. So yeah, I'm gonna start 0:14:38.640 --> 0:14:40.200 doing things like that. And plus plus I'm getting my 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:40.840 masters back. 0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:43.320 How does it? How what's the process of you getting 0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:44.000 your masters back? 0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:45.600 Is it because it's a time limit thing, like the 0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:47.800 time passes and then you're getting back or you're buying 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:49.120 them as well. 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:51.440 It works for out both for me, one is the 0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:54.640 time limit thing, and to this company that actually owns it, 0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:56.920 I'm doing other business or I'm getting into to do 0:14:57.000 --> 0:14:59.360 other businesses. We want to look at you kind of like, yeah, 0:14:59.480 --> 0:15:03.680 work it out, and you know, it's probably the first 0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:06.120 time I kind of like felt selfish, you know what 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:08.880 I mean, because the deal was re quiet for me. 0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:12.440 But it's me and Compone's album and Tras was a 0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:15.480 part of it as well, right, so you know, you 0:15:15.520 --> 0:15:17.720 know Trage said to be when he filed out, He's like, 0:15:17.760 --> 0:15:20.400 you're gonna do what the quality go and I was like, no, 0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:24.720 like these are my I mean, you know shit, that's 0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:28.720 sometimes the way some people say that Jay and Dame 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:31.600 broke up because of the reasonable doubt. Like that first 0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:33.720 album means different to me. You know what I'm saying, 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:35.400 It's my first album. You know what I'm saying, Like 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:38.600 it's my first time spitting on the mic, and you 0:15:38.640 --> 0:15:40.280 know what I'm saying, my first time coming late to 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:41.040 a studio session. 0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:43.120 It is my first time doing that. So what you 0:15:43.160 --> 0:15:46.400 guys are doing Rock the bells this weekend, and we 0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:47.760 did Rock the bell because this is come up. Yeah, 0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:49.360 this will be out after so but where. 0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:53.680 You know, I had this me Puerto Rico, Rob scram 0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:55.800 Jones were at dinner last night and we just started throwing. 0:15:56.440 --> 0:15:58.400 We just got on this tangent about best album covers 0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:01.080 of all time, and uh, and I said, the War 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:03.280 Reports got to be in that conversation. It's timeless, It's 0:16:03.320 --> 0:16:04.640 on t shirts, it's on hoodies in. 0:16:05.160 --> 0:16:07.480 What was the the photo shoot? 0:16:07.600 --> 0:16:12.200 Like the conceptual like thought process of War Reports covered 0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:15.360 because it is so iconic and it's still people have. 0:16:15.520 --> 0:16:19.000 I didn't realize you said Shortline Mafia just yeah, just 0:16:19.000 --> 0:16:20.120 paid homage to it. 0:16:20.280 --> 0:16:22.920 Yeah, I saw that, big them up and they did 0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:24.440 a video to the Yeah. 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:29.240 By the way, even at Coachella they were they were 0:16:29.480 --> 0:16:31.280 CNN out with the tanks and ship. 0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:34.160 They're crazy. Yeah, I like them, but they're crazy. 0:16:35.320 --> 0:16:38.880 It's crazy and I'm not flost and this is just facts. 0:16:39.320 --> 0:16:42.760 I went out to dinner the other day, uh, with 0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:46.800 Jamie Left Raight. His family owns Left right. That's where 0:16:46.840 --> 0:16:50.800 I'm from it and he says to me, he says, 0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:53.000 you know the first time I found. 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:54.960 Out about you, And I said, what is that? 0:16:55.440 --> 0:16:59.520 He said, they said that somebody's in my apartments, throwing down, 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:03.160 saying and taking pictures. So I looked at him and 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:06.000 I was like, sir, you have no idea what you 0:17:06.160 --> 0:17:08.000 just described to me. And he goes what is that, 0:17:08.080 --> 0:17:10.080 I said, that's my very first album cover. That's the 0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:13.240 War Report. Because we didn't have photoshop back then. We 0:17:13.280 --> 0:17:14.840 had to go to Jones Beach. We had to go 0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:18.040 to Rockaway Beach and actually literally pick up sand and 0:17:18.080 --> 0:17:18.960 put it on the floor. 0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:20.000 So when. 0:17:21.760 --> 0:17:25.280 You see my my Timberlands, my Timberland is actually on sand. 0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:28.600 And then everything else was that version of photo shop later, 0:17:28.920 --> 0:17:31.480 but that's what I remember. I remember like us getting 0:17:31.520 --> 0:17:36.280 kicked out because we had to literally bring our own props. 0:17:37.080 --> 0:17:39.520 And yeah, because back then it was like like you said, 0:17:39.840 --> 0:17:42.479 it wasn't like you could just and you can make 0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:44.040 anything on a computer. Now, if you get take a 0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:46.280 picture in front of a green screen, you could be 0:17:46.280 --> 0:17:47.639 in Greece right now for sure. 0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:50.560 And yeah, but yeah, that was that was iconic. And 0:17:50.600 --> 0:17:55.480 then another thing that stood out to me that that 0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:59.119 that that happened with that album cover was the dude 0:17:59.280 --> 0:18:01.600 snitched on the old neighborhood the next day. I don't 0:18:01.600 --> 0:18:03.760 know if you'll ever seen the War Report. When you 0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:05.879 open up the War Report, we got a place in 0:18:05.920 --> 0:18:09.560 there where it goes, Trader says Trader. The dude took 0:18:09.680 --> 0:18:11.960 the picture with he's in both he's in both he's 0:18:12.000 --> 0:18:15.760 in Queensbridge and he's in left right, And the very 0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:18.679 next day he took the stand on everybody in the picture, 0:18:20.080 --> 0:18:22.280 everybod he's in the picture with him. 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:23.879 The day before. Oh wow. 0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:26.600 And so that's why you see when you open up 0:18:26.600 --> 0:18:27.840 the album cover it says Trader. 0:18:29.280 --> 0:18:31.439 Yeah, but I feel like if you had to did 0:18:31.440 --> 0:18:33.280 that these days that I probably would have sued you. 0:18:33.520 --> 0:18:37.560 Everyone's getting fucking too right. I don't know, man, it's crazy, YO, 0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:41.399
