Speaker 1: was in New York and in Carolina. You know, I'm

13
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 1: saying like it was like I spent some I'm in

14
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 1: high school, so he was the cool kid when you

15
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: go to Carolina. Yeah, yeah, very much. So like I

16
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 1: see whatever I mean, Like whenever I meet guys from Carrol,

17
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 1: North Carolina, and I'm like why they're very East Coast

18
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: hip hop orient and I'm like, how did that happen?

19
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: Because I kind of had it backwards with a lot

20
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: of New York kids had to spend the summer and

21
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,199
Speaker 1: down south. You know what I'm saying. I was in

22
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: high school out south, I spent I couldn't wait to

23
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: get back home as soon as as soon as the

24
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: last bellows done, I'm I know, to ask permission, like

25
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: I'm already a little grown man. That's the first version

26
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: of black privilege right there, because we didn't have nobody

27
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 1: in the South to go to unless were all the

28
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: way south to to to the Islands. When y'all were

29
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: going to Atlanta, I was like, y'all could go to Atlanta.

30
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 1: But but but but but but but but I see

31
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: I had the best of both the world because because

32
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you know, like when

33
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: they going our south, y'all might be going to Puerto

34
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 1: Rico or the Cuba. YEA saying like what have you

35
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, like they just going down south?

36
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like when you were going

37
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: back to school, was you bringing down tapes times? Like

38
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: like that's your question. I'm about to answer your question,

39
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: like like you know as far as me when I

40
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 1: when like I knew that hip hop, like when people

41
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: were like it's a fat de set me up. I

42
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: thought they would have taught it listening. But I ain't

43
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: say nothing because I carried it from New York down south.

44
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: And that's how it affected the cast around me, you

45
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: know I'm saying, And that I was willing to carry it.

46
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: It was here, it was there was there was no

47
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: doubt it was hit. It was just a matter of

48
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: what we were gonna do with it, you know what

49
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But but I saw its ability early. I

50
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,639
Speaker 1: remember the first time I heard him beat on television,

51
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I knew what it meant

52
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: when it happened, because prior to that, I never heard

53
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: a beat on television, what I'm saying. So just to

54
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: hear a beat on television and someone talking over to

55
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: selling something meant that we was next. You know what

56
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: I'm saying. We went went next, you know what I'm saying.

57
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: And we had a ride. We was here. There was

58
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: there was no turning the back. We were music. You know,

59
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: same year did you start every hip hop like got involved? Um?

60
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 1: I mean probably. I mean like from the first time

61
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: I really ever heard anyone ever spit around or even

62
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 1: moment your first song that you heard then was it

63
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: was one of those cold crush mixtapes. No, not not

64
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: not not that because I'm still going back and forth,

65
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and like I'm probably here

66
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: and know king to the third or you know what

67
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Yeah, we were roads king to all that ship.

68
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: That was all that before Rappers Delight. No, that was

69
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 1: all after because I didn't know right well, you know

70
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: you gotta remember so rappers. When Rappers the Light hit

71
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: here in l A. It was like it was an

72
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: extension of disco because it was the chic song that

73
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: they were using. So it's like, oh, they're just they're

74
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: just doing some kind of flow over the chick song,

75
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: right right. I thought there was gonna be a fat

76
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: that it was gonna go. I really did. Yeah, yeah,

77
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: either I fell in love with it off the rim.

78
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: I was in love with it, but I just said

79
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: it's so good it can't last, This can't la. Yeah,

80
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: No I did. I didn't say that, Yeah, yeah, just

81
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: ultimately like like yeah, like it just spoke to us

82
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: like like especially I think especially once the first time

83
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,119
Speaker 1: I have a touch viol I'm saying that probably would

84
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: have been see if you can relate to me, on

85
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 1: this three. If you going late to me on this,

86
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: you know you guys were you guys were all about

87
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: hipotolyze because you guys were on the East coast right,

88
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: thank you, sir. So here we couldn't relate to it

89
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: because we didn't have it in our face. So when,

90
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: of course, when it got hot here, you know you

91
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: had your early early hip hopcasts that was doing their things,

92
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: KINGT and and help me here when somebody cats that

93
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: were early early on, well you probably heard of these cats,

94
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: least Jam radio Activity Crew, Yes them, dude, you probably

95
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: heard Egyptian, Egyptian Lover and Rodney and Joe Crew and so.

96
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: And then when ice Cube not ice Cube, but when uh,

97
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: when n w A hit um with with ice Cube

98
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: and all them cats, that's when we felt it at

99
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: least that somebody was like probably something for us other

100
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: than that. Other than that, I just thought it was like, oh,

101
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: that's some New York ships, just like how d C

102
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: has house music nevers not not not and and that's

103
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 1: a valid statement when you're landing up next to Go Go.

104
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: But because I would have thought that Bogo as well

105
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 1: would be something that we all would be someone because

106
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:15,600
Speaker 1: it's an amazing form of music and amazing Gogo was beautiful, right,

107
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: but and the fact that we all can't save five

108
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 1: Gogo records that right now till I can't current DC.

109
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm gonna tell you something that's that's a

110
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: real bother point. Yeah, Like I came out there really

111
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: wasn't accepted that record as a gol record in dcase

112
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: commercial because it was too commercial. There was a way

113
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: to commercial and there was like the audacity of Sugar

114
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: beand Gold in the studio and cut of this record

115
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 1: because what what what people never on the student about

116
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,919
Speaker 1: gog Go Go. First of all, it's because it continued

117
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: and he that was happen. He didn't know I was

118
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: gonna even know that was gonna happen. But the people

119
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: look at it. But the people they look at it

120
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: like but but they should never look at that ever

121
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 1: because because they know there's no artist that's going in

122
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: there to make you feel like that. Never. But but

123
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: the thing the key of of Google has always been

124
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: the live the PA tapes or to this day you're

125
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 1: going by p A tapes, Like if you go to

126
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: the club, any club and they're playing Gold, that they

127
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: have a live band. People will wait to the to

128
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,919
Speaker 1: the Southman edit that joint and he really doesn't edit it,

129
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: and you just make copies and you and you buy them.

130
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: Because the key of Gogo is a life fields. It's

131
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 1: one of those music that it's a reaction actually, you know,

132
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: but the band is giving you rock the bells is

133
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: a go go sample. Yeah, So that's a lot of

134
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: songs that, Yeah, there's a lot of us now, Rich

135
00:06:53,360 --> 00:07:00,920
Speaker 1: Harrison says from d C. But it it than itself

136
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: is amazing, like like like this should be so much

137
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 1: more usage and and and us understanding. Especially I think

138
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 1: in black and Latin culture it's it's it's of I know,

139
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: well it's of us and I tell you this much.

140
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: And and I was blessed to have a good friendship

141
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: with the Guyfaller girl who pass away to Chuck Ground

142
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,920

143
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,520

144
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: used to be in the Latin bag too, so why

145
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: he didn't mix it. And he just saw that people

146
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: started getting this reaction when he was you know, when

147
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: it was playing, so they just kept on. Yeah, which

148
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,200

00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 1: the boys, the younger, the next generation of the boys,

Speaker 1: done and he put the you know what I mean,

165
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,959
Speaker 1: that's that's how a lot of that was made. Put

166
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: my question, my question to to you when you get

167
00:08:55,080 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 1: back breaking or beach Street like is there do you

168
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: see it different from me? I saw a wild style first,

169
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 1: so I was like, yo, this ship is incredible, and

170
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: because it was what time, so I saw it, I

171
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: was in England on vacation with my family four and

172
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 1: it was like June mayor June, and I went when

173
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: I was to go to the video, so I rent

174
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: a video and I saw a wild style. I just

175
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: saw the graffiti and I was like, huh, I mean,

176
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: let me see what this is about. I didn't know

177
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: when I got it when I went. When I saw it,

178
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 1: and I was like, yo, what the fund because I

179
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: was already be boying already at the time. And I

180
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 1: was like, I got it because I thought it was

181
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 1: gonna be a B boy movie. And then yeah, there

182
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 1: was some dancing in it. But then when I saw

183
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,839
Speaker 1: how gritty the rhyming and the scenery was and how

184
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: shitty the acting was, I legit thought it was a

185
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 1: documentary at first. Can you break down the meeting of

186
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: the boy the actual dancing or so I was. I

187
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: was a breaker, I was break dancing, and I was

188
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 1: already into hit pop okay, So which means you were

189
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: already a B boy at that point, right, Okay? I

190
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: heard B boy in my entire life, and I've never

191
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: I'm bold enough in this conversation to say, what the

192
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: fun is a B boy? Because you guys are gonna

193
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 1: share that with me. I've only yeah, you know the

194
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: B boys. Now I'm like this, I don't know what

195
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: to tell me. What when Crazy Legs comes in and

196
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: shake his hand and be like, and then that's a

197
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 1: B boy. But the problem with Run Run like the

198
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: term B boys so much that he started saying he

199
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: was a B boy. And then our Legs approached Run

200
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: about it, and he said, why are you calling yourself

201
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: a B boy when you don't dance? So if you

202
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: understand back then everybody got tested which was different. Bad

203
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: B boy made for the big girl legs what bad

204
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 1: But they didn't, you know, they didn't. They prided themselves like, no, no, no,

205
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: we're B boys. This is the definition of what we do.

206
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: You can't casually call yourself a boy and a B

207
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: boy basically as a break boy. Yes, wanted to. He

208
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: just liked the way it sounds like he thought it

209
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: was a bad boy so so so so you know

210
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: when you hear that, you know, Runs talking about getting

211
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: your B boy stands, I just don't care. That's some

212
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,839
Speaker 1: bad boy ship. I mean I did not know, but

213
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 1: but I feel like like that Run co opted it

214
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: and that that the word kind of moved forward, you

215
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, to the degree when you talk

216
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 1: to purist or the question when I'm watching the question,

217
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: but I'm talking about I'm gonna let him know how

218
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:38,199
Speaker 1: you feel. Yeah, not yeah, because just to say that

219
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 1: we have a caller, there's not a projects in New

220
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 1: York that that that that the entire crew hasn't still

221
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: in B boys stances and taking pictures. Absolutely, that's why.

222
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: That's because it's become true popular commercialized like EU when

223
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: they do doing the butt No not big boy, you

224
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: know boy m c s. And then they started doing

225
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: it D boy, which is a drug dealer who was

226
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: doing that. They got great start making money. I think

227
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: they embraced being a D boy within it, you know boy,

228
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 1: not not a that was different saying there's a difference

229
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: in doing it for the hustle and doing it from

230
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: the heart, you know what I'm saying. And you know,

231
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: like I get it. You can we can't knock it.

232
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 1: We can't knock the hustle, you know what I'm saying.

233
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: But sometimes the hustle is to be not you know

234
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, all good money, all money ain't good money.

235
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, and I look at you

236
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 1: know sometimes when it took for us to have the

237
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 1: assortment of millionaires. You know that it's almost like you

238
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 1: know when when NA says the crack game, you know,

239
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: comparison to the rep Yet, well, we know what the

240
00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: crack game did to the community, you know, I in

241
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,719
Speaker 1: comparison to the rap game. Now let's let's let's juxtaposed

242
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: the ship. You know what I'm saying that again, doing

243
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: fund of the rap game, not not not not not

244
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 1: not not. I can't. I would only say that that's

245
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: a quarter if if if if a quarter like it

246
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 1: didn't stand up. But what what there is there is

247
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 1: a valid point. It didn't fund it. But the kids

248
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: who made songs, they would make songs for the drug dealer,

249
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 1: and it was a customized song. It was a lifestyle.

250
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: It was it was I think it's not not gonna hustle.

251
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: I'm not not. But what I'm saying is that there's

252
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: a difference. You know what I'm saying. You can hear

253
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 1: a dude who was in a gang, in a gang

254
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 1: a year ago, he sees what everybody else is doing

255
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,959
Speaker 1: making money and looking at all these holes in the video.

256
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 1: You want to do that now today, So he starts rapping.

257
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: But you can tell the difference. There is no you

258
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: can tell in his flow he's first of all, he's

259
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,959
Speaker 1: not in the pocket. The second of all, you can

260
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: tell there's mad schools missing in terms of he never

261
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: battled in the park. If you can hear that, you

262
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 1: never battled in the backyard a party. And it's just

263
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: you can tell. All I want to do is get paid?

264
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: Are you talking about? In terms of l A that goes.

265
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: That's a blanket, but it goes. It goes for just

266
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: about any hood we're gonna you know, a guy wakes up.

267
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: He doesn't even do the knowledge anymore. He just wants

268
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 1: to be you know what I mean. He wants to

269
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: be that guy. He doesn't have to learn who Africa

270
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: Bambata is or who Coo Hrk was. Why this is important,

271
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: I have a hard time crashing a night because it's

272
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: always been hard for me to wind down. A lot

273
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: of people are recommended I try CBD products, but I

274
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: always hesitated to try them because it was so hard

275
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: to find a reliable source. Luckily, I got turned onto

276
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: Papa and Barkley, an awesome CBD company that creates award

277

280
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 1: sleep issues, I've been using the regular strength relief drops

281
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: and lemon grass ginger, and just a few drops before

282
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: bed really helped to calm my mind. I like to

283
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: think that my brain is smart enough to know it

284
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: needs sleep to function, but I guess it needs a

285
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: little CBD nudge to power down sometimes. Anyway, since I've

286
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 1: been using Papa and Barkley relief drops, I really feel

287
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,680

Speaker 1: and he didn't even know who it was. I still

309
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 1: I still look at Nellie little a little to the

310
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: left for that, but just for saying that, because I

311
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: feel like you gotta know where you've been in order

312
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 1: to know where you're where you're going. But it got

313
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 1: to a point that didn't care about that. But but

314
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: but it's also thinking of the old The young screw

315
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 1: felt like the old school didn't give him their respect. Me,

316
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 1: this was before that. But but but this is what

317
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: he's talking about was before that. But this is the

318
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: division I'm talking about, where where the hustle and the heart?

319
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like you know, like like

320
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: the ship was built on us doing it from the heart,

321
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: that the money didn't even exist. That's the one thing

322
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: I can say for my there was no money to

323
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: the exists, Like like that's the one thing we didn't see.

324
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: We did it for PLoud, Yeah, because we didn't. We

325
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: were to rock that problem. You wanted anybody talking about you,

326
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 1: We didn't. We did. Yeah, yeah, fuck the totem pole

327
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 1: to see to see what we're still amongst each other? Right,

328
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I started. I started because

329
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 1: I A. I just I wanted to hear this music.

330
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 1: And the only body I was going to hear this

331
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: if I played it myself. And you've been coming into it,

332
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:17,880
Speaker 1: it's my word, like coming into it like like I'm

333
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 1: around cast I stepped into the room probably working on

334
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 1: their first album. You know what I'm saying. So as

335
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 1: much as Cats was getting paid up to that point,

336
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: is as much as as much as I'm seeing what

337
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: I'm saying so Daylight is probably making the most money

338
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: out of everybody in the in the room. They're not rich,

339
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, like like like this, I'm

340
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 1: a hustling kid. There's nothing they can do that I

341
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 1: can't do at this point in like so, let me saying,

342
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: do you because you look at hip up like that,

343
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: do you believe that that's one of the reasons why

344
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: all the coaches was able to come in and and

345
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 1: and snagging as as as own and ship as executive

346
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 1: of culture? You mean like the people that South you

347
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 1: know I'm talking about like white people. No, I think

348
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: that white people have zero now, but but white people

349
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 1: an impact. But white But if you look at it exactly,

350
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 1: if you look at ownership, you know what, there's a

351
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 1: difference between white and Jewish. They're not the same. Now,

352
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, let me say something to Gale Records.

353
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:28,159
Speaker 1: They give a lot of love to to Uhlbinson, right,

354
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: but Sylvia Robinson partner was a gentleman from Yugoslavia and

355
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 1: he was the one holding down the money. It was

356
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: her husband and her. But narrative wise, it definitely looks

357
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: good because it's a black woman who was running the show. However,

358
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 1: when we learned later on, she jerked everybody and then

359
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 1: when they tried to sue us, she burned the building down.

360
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,440
Speaker 1: Crazy And this is my word, like like motherfucker's be

361
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: using the same template that you know that that that

362
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: that was used in jazz, that was used. And I'm

363
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 1: saying that because because because at the end of the day,

364
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 1: I don't want to taken I don't want to take

365
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: not away from you what you want, because because I

366
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 1: know it. The graffiti artists, they weren't listening to rap

367
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 1: music because there wasn't enough of it. You understand, they

368
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: were listening to rock. They were dressing like rock. But

369
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 1: they were living in the b X. They were living

370
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 1: in the hood. They were hanging and you know, and

371
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: some of them will be black, Latino or even white

372
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,480
Speaker 1: because Melan Melan Melan would tell you they used to

373
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 1: go down to hang out cb GPS. That's where they

374
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: dressed like that and all the leathern ship. Yeah, yeah,

375
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 1: especially in New York and then there there's so many

376
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: different things. Yeah, to the radio was to it was

377
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: real pop and real rock. It was it was that

378
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: was that error right there. To be honest, it's crazy.

379
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw the I saw this

380
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: thing about Arrowsmith and in the story of Arro Smith

381
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 1: with and the Crazy Partisan too. I saw that documentary.

382
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 1: I always thought that Arro Smith did rug DMC a favor.

383
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:05,920
Speaker 1: Reality was that the favor because but neither one of

384
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: them wanted the record to be made. YEA, yeah, yeah,

385
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 1: I don't know that it was broke. But let's not

386
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 1: just say that wasn't hit that song before that, it

387
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 1: was just the beauty, and I would call it beauty

388
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,920
Speaker 1: that Rick Rubin starts. I mean, salute Larry Smith was

389
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 1: doing the early stuff, and then who was implementing the

390
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: rock sound? Then gets the Beasties and all the fresh

391
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,160
Speaker 1: fest toys. Beasties was on it. Now you could now

392
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: people will come out to see Beasties. They'll see because

393
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 1: paused for one moment. Did you see the beast Boys phenomenon?

394
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 1: You could watch it a few times, yo, yo, big

395
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 1: salute to the BC boys. I had no idea. It

396
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: was much like a conversation with Ray Parker. I had

397
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 1: no idea the ship that they did behind the scenes

398
00:21:57,920 --> 00:21:59,959
Speaker 1: and didn't get credit for, you know what I'm say,

399
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,639
Speaker 1: And they got jerked. They got jerked by rush like

400
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 1: they're white artists. Yeah, and I'm more responsible for some

401
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: ship that we give credit to other cats for at

402
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 1: the very beginning then is on the table. And let

403
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,159
Speaker 1: me ask you guys a question, and this is this

404
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,919
Speaker 1: is something I just need to I need to answer

405
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,679
Speaker 1: as far as a musical artist, you know, whether it's

406
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: hip hop or whatever genre you're had. I've heard the

407
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 1: stories about the record label uh jerking cats and getting

408
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: them for their publishing or whatever it is, whatever the situation,

409
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 1: maybe no one particular case in mind, but is it

410
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: is it the artist's fault because they signed the contract?

411
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 1: But wait a minute, Holong, let me the Spanish. I'm

412
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,359
Speaker 1: asking the question because you know, I remember hearing about

413
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 1: Tony Braxon's broke and this person is broke and all

414
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 1: the very gordy artists that were that were broken the day,

415
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 1: and you know, I know that he was doing them

416
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: a favor in a sense by signing them to a

417
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: contract by the Mama Cadillac, get them up out the

418
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 1: ghettos and stuff like that. And so I don't really

419
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 1: I don't have a dog in the fight that it

420
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. But I'm just asking because I've always wanted

421
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: how does that happen because they they signed a contract. Yeah,

422
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:21,919
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean yeah, but listen, you're you're a

423
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,120
Speaker 1: kid who grows up in the hood with nothing. Absolutely,

424
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: you're a kid who ends up some of them having lawyers,

425
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 1: like Dayla having lawyers, and probably you guys having lawyers,

426
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: and even white artists having lawyers. But again, a lot

427
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,479
Speaker 1: of the times these lawyers aren't guys that Dayla went

428
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 1: and seek out. These are lawyers that the label suggested

429
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 1: to them. Correct that these are guys that are in

430
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 1: their pocket alrighty, yes, you know, or that or from

431
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: a pool of of lawyers that are entertainment lawyers. Yeah,

432
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,199
Speaker 1: you know, and you know that dude, that especially if

433
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: they're known, then that kind of what known means that

434
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: is that they play the game, you know, I'm saying. So,

435
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 1: like Twould agreed, I think it's some of both. Like,

436
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 1: definitely there's the naive even say, you know, saying that

437
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: exists in signing something so long and so open ended,

438
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But at the end of

439
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:20,400
Speaker 1: the day, um, there's definitely definitely the when they say

440
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: we're giving you the standard, and that the standard screwing

441
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 1: you know, what I'm saying, like like that this is

442
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 1: just a standard contract, which means which means we don't

443
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: know that everybody else got jerked. Yeah, yeah, because because

444
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: nobody was talking about getting jerked back right right right

445
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: right right right right right right. So it's just how

446
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 1: they got jerked. We're gonna give you the standard, right,

447
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, But ask your lawyer, is

448
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: this the standards? This is the becomes it becomes a jerk.

449
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I love, I love, I love. Yeah,

450
00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:01,479
Speaker 1: in my opinion, ultimately it is the artist. Ultimately, yes, ultimately,

451
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 1: ulimately yess here and he got jerked. I'm gonna break

452
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 1: it down, but hold on, hold on. You get at

453
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 1: what's court was called a good a good um bill,

454
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 1: and I got jerked. Let me explain why. Because what

455
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 1: we're standard with a standard, if they give you something

456
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 1: that's slightly better than standard, which is what I got,

457
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 1: something that slightly better. Said, so I got a good deal.

458
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,160
Speaker 1: I think I got like eleven points. When you come

459
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,199
Speaker 1: to find out that eleven points is eleven percent and

460
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,879
Speaker 1: that there's a hundred percent that exists out there, and

461
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: I am getting eleven percent of something that I created,

462
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 1: something that you created right right, So here in eleven

463
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 1: eleven eleven points seven, and they don't they don't they

464
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 1: don't say eleven percent, and the lawyer doesn't break down

465
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 1: eleven points wolves. Absolutely, I get that, you got it.

466
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: You've got eleven points and I'm just saying so so

467
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: off the door, there's there's there's language that both of

468
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: them are using. They're not on the same side, but

469
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 1: both of them are using language that you're not familiar with.

470
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 1: Off the rip. So our business TV, it's very similar

471
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,120
Speaker 1: to the music industry. It's it's almost the same business

472
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: houses like this, no, no, no, but that's but that's

473
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 1: that's what you've given out a couple of coins. Yeah,

474
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: but I have. But here's the deal. But I know that,

475
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 1: I know that. Let me just give you an example.

476
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 1: I create the Jamie Fox Show with Jamie right, and

477
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 1: I know that show has made hundreds of millions of dollars, right.

478
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 1: I haven't seen a penny back in from that money

479
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 1: from that show yet, not one penny. Now, they gave

480
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 1: they gave me enough upfront to where I was. I

481
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 1: was smart enough to make some moves to get myself

482
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 1: in a comfortable position to live, right, But then you

483
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,479
Speaker 1: start going, hey, this should be an annuity. Am I

484
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: supposed to get money off of this for the rest

485
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: of my life? And I'm still waiting, and I'm going

486
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,360
Speaker 1: to James, go ahead, hey man, we should go say

487
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 1: these people. Well, his position is he's doing movies for

488
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: Warner Brothers, so he don't want to sunk with it.

489
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 1: Don't want to right, So my but my thing is, well,

490
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 1: I'm not so. But then they make it so hard

491
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 1: because in order to even just go and get a

492
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 1: forensic accountant, you gotta put a potainer of probably a

493
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 1: hundred fifty grand dad and they might not find nothing.

494
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: So it's scaredn't even wanting to go to even pursue it.

495
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: In the return was you got famed, no jerk you

496
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,959
Speaker 1: and stiff you real nice, but at least you know

497
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: you're a household that some cats. That was the trade off. Well,

498
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: here's the deal. I mean, if I if I know

499
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: I just use a broad example, if I know when

500
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 1: Michael Jackson meant to the world, and I know he

501
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 1: wasn't a billionaire when he died, there's a problem with that.

502
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 1: That is a jerkin. But did he know what he

503
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 1: was saying, because if if you tell me that a

504
00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: guy like jay Z is a billionaire, and that's no, no,

505
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: the smirchment on jay Z love him, right, But if

506
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,959
Speaker 1: you tell me that he is the schman, that's right,

507
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:13,159
Speaker 1: I'm going deep, it's real. It's but and if but

508
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 1: if he's if he's a billionaire, and Michael Jackson never

509
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 1: sees a billion dollars and we know what he meant

510
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 1: to the entire globe. Was that a screwing or did

511
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 1: is that just a standard that money didn't only come

512
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: from music, okay, in the stand, so they becomes from

513
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 1: other other business dealings that they can do, kind of

514
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: like we talked about Michael owning publishing. You know a

515
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 1: lot of other things that you do later in your life,

516
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 1: your business deals, your collaborations, your sponsorships and endorsements, clothing lines.

517
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: You know, they did three hundred million on clothing line

518
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: with Rockeware one year. And you know, it was very

519
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: it was it was, it was very fruitful. But now

520
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 1: we're arguably talking about the most popular face to ever

521
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 1: walk the planet, Earth's most recognizable face. Remember this about

522
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:13,720
Speaker 1: remember this about those that Michael board costs them a

523
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 1: lot of money. Also, which guys, my dad has something

524
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 1: to say, Well, I think what it is with the industry. Also,

525
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 1: when they said is it the artist fall, it's two

526
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 1: levels of the game. When you get an entertainment lawyer,

527
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: he is that. That's what it is. He is a

528
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 1: entertainment lawyer. He has a lot of relationships with all

529
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 1: the people throughout the industry and those are his friends.

530
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 1: So he's gonna get you a good enough deal. Well,

531
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: is it gonna be the best deal? No? When you

532
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 1: have a problem with the labels, that entertainment lawyer wants

533
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: no part of that because now he has to go

534
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 1: against springs. He's not gonna lose all the money he

535
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: can make because you having a problem. And that's when

536
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: you gotta understand. You gotta get a litigator. Litigator don't

537
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: care about nobody. If you write you right, I'm gonna

538
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 1: fight with you. And that's what artists don't understand. When

539
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 1: it's a standard contract, it's a standard contract and it's

540
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 1: up to your lawyer plug the whole. I'll tell you.

541
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: When you're an artists with only one bite, one label

542
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: responded to you, and that's all You're no negotiating. That's

543
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 1: when you're in a situation like hold up, what am

544
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 1: I gonna do here? And we have to remember this

545
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:49,400

566
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: where you got a decision to make. You know what

567
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And I think in those particular type of situations,

568
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: it's still not for you to sign this standard because

569
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 1: what the standard is is is it has you stretched out.

570
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 1: If these has to be the terms, if these has

571
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: to be the terms, let's let's let's do it. Let's

572
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: let's do it. Let's do it for one or two years. Yeah,

573
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: I'm saying, but artists is gonna, you know, sign whatever,

574
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna figure it out later. I mean, that's

575
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: a couple. That's a couple of things that are going

576
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 1: to that. Number one, if you look at hip hop,

577
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 1: you have to be young. They don't go for a

578
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 1: guy that s thirty thirty five years old. They go

579
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 1: for the young people. That's one because reason because people

580
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 1: like like Russell said that coming from the hood that

581
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: ain't getting three meals a day. They're looking at all

582
00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: these people. But he's a writer screw and they say

583
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: you you nice. You could be the next one. You

584
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: could be on the toll bus, you could be on

585
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 1: billboards that that those things are the shiny things to

586
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 1: a lot of artists. So artists that sound kids, but

587
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: they're gonna get you young. Look at the artists come

588
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 1: out eight seventeen years old. Eighteen years They don't know,

589
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 1: they don't know about ship, they don't know about I

590
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: don't know about the role that that's that's now though, Yeah,

591
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 1: well that's happening, but it doesn't mean what's happening now,

592
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 1: it's the label doesn't look like they look like us.

593
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: So it's your own homies, your o g who's jerking you?

594
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: But but but it's I think it's worse not because

595
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: they're getting somebody's gut that three which christ which is

596
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 1: which is really? Because the money is in the brand, right,

597
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: the money and that's not even in the record. So

598
00:33:55,400 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 1: whatever whatever you decide to be from rapper to actor,

599
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: let me that involves them. Was an old thought of thinking.

600
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: My point is with three sixty, deal with businessmen, right,

601
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: If you're doing three sixty with me, you're buying my brand.

602
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 1: That means you're trying to get in not only on music.

603
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,479
Speaker 1: You're trying to get in my tease, my little goals.

604
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 1: You're trying to put my ship on Popeye's Chicken. You're

605
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 1: trying to do all of that. Right now, I have

606
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: to look at myself as a brand. Now, if I

607
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 1: sign that, then I'm coming from a place of weakness,

608
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,840
Speaker 1: right I'm so I really work this angle, then that

609
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 1: can be pretty much a sad Rocky Megan the Stallion.

610
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 1: All these individuals, you know the value of their brand

611
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 1: now now they're putting themselves on the recist pieces they're

612
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: getting Wait wait, wait, wait, you said the Pacific point.

613
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: Those that know the value there, those that know, but

614
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,880
Speaker 1: most people don't know. To the concept of three I

615
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,879
Speaker 1: apologize now, the concept of three sixty that just came

616
00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 1: with branding recently, merchandise, the sales of record, the label

617
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: says the label, the label says, you don't we don't

618
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 1: make enough money on The first thing that cut out

619
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 1: is the development of the artists. That's the first thing

620
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 1: that cut out. Well, sorry, the first thing they did that.

621
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 1: Then after that they cut out everybody in promotion is kept.

622
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 1: One person in promotion and going to VP of promotion

623
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,760
Speaker 1: on the label. Right but all that all that person

624
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: is really doing, it's just talking to to the p

625
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 1: D and and right now is the city of vice

626
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 1: president of program the label that makes a decisions, not

627
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: even a program. So so the one thing that an

628
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 1: artist doesn't understand is that an artist doesn't number one.

629
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: They don't understand how those labels are in bed with

630
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 1: the with with the radio stations. So so that's how

631
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: they're able to give because I believe it or not,

632
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 1: to this day, artists want to hear this up on

633
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 1: the radio. They want to read is not even necessary nowaday,

634
00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:00,399
Speaker 1: but they want to hear this something pitical. But that's

635
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 1: reach it there because what they do is they appeal

636
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,760
Speaker 1: to your ego exactly, and artists or ego driven humans,

637
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 1: that's just the way we are. Absolutely, and that's why

638
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: your ego is one of the things that I'm bringing out.

639
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 1: The ego and greed always sucking ruin everybody. Something we

640
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: learned from learn from. His music wasn't on the air,

641
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 1: but he was selling a lot. But this it's like

642
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 1: master p He was one of the people's genius. He

643
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,879
Speaker 1: was one of the master was the genius what master

644
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 1: P did. And I never forget it's that massive master

645
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 1: P went to first, he hit the streets where he

646
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: was from. Then the smartest thing he did he care.

647
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 1: I never forget when he cared to d C and

648
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,200
Speaker 1: every because I used to do on air because radio

649
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 1: really does obate wh people, right, So I was doing.

650
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,880
Speaker 1: I was ahead of the street team, and I was

651
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 1: on the air, and he would come to anybody to

652
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:54,920
Speaker 1: hit the streets, and I look, guys, I would give

653
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 1: you a five thousand dollars. I need, you know, to

654
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 1: flood this whole city because back you put up the

655
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 1: posters on the post you're driving the you got the

656
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,439
Speaker 1: CDs that give you a sample. He was smart enough

657
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 1: he gave us the promos, so everybody that had a promo,

658
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,239
Speaker 1: and he was smart enough to say this is how

659
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pimp the game. Yeah. But but what I'm

660
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 1: saying is okay. So now there's been all these documentary

661
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,440
Speaker 1: and this is all recent stuff, you know, with with

662
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 1: Clarence Aman, all the different ones that are showing showing

663
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: today's artists, you know, how not to get screwed, right.

664
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,320
Speaker 1: But they've been they've been on a label since Sam

665
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: cooked on his own label, right, James Brown had his

666
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 1: own label, had a jet and that people don't talk

667
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 1: about that in our black history, that James Brown was

668
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 1: riding around in his own jet. Right, and so it

669
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 1: was alays ready you know what I'm saying. They don't

670
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 1: talk about that because these are people that were educated.

671
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 1: Now they're rare birds at that time. Now today today's

672
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 1: to me, it seems today you have run the Jewels.

673
00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: You have an LP and Killer Mike, who have been

674
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: doing music forever. They come up with this new brand.

675
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 1: Now they got Mattel, Now, they got Marveled, they got toys,

676
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 1: they got their songs in venom. But then you have

677
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 1: Griz Elda another group. Sure I get it, but but

678
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: here's the thing, like what Antonio says, so they don't

679
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 1: sell us through sixty. They value of that they But

680
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 1: again it goes back what what you know over this?

681
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: And it's the people that know. And I think the

682
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,759
Speaker 1: exception that we have is that everybody knows and even

683
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: the information is right there, I can pick up the

684
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 1: information that's not that's not the all exception that people know.

685
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:38,359
Speaker 1: People should know that this today I'm talking. I'm not

686
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 1: talking about when when I signed my deal, you signed

687
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 1: your deal. You signed I'm not talking about then because

688
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,799
Speaker 1: nobody knew. Right. Today is a different day where the

689
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:50,359
Speaker 1: where the information is at your fingertips. But again, you're

690
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 1: still dealing with young people. Yeah, and young people inherently

691
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 1: do not want to listen to older people, That's true.

692
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 1: And they're like, if you're so fucking smart, how did

693
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: you get taken? And we're like, well, why don't you

694
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 1: listen to me? And I'll tell you how to avoid it?

695
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 1: Like why do you give a ship? Fuck you? I

696
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 1: don't trust you. I'm signing this deal and they're doing

697
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,760
Speaker 1: things at a spite on me like this, you woudn't

698
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,759
Speaker 1: make no money the money I'm looking for. You don't

699
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: even make half the money. Yeah, my bonus is more

700
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,480
Speaker 1: than your career. And and and the reality of that

701
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:24,280
Speaker 1: is young people, yes, do you understand the only reason

702
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 1: you are making the money that you are about to

703
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: make because we took the money you have to get

704
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: to get you. You needed a front line. You know

705
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,919
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, word I needed. Please don't ever get

706
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 1: a mistake when they say that that ship is that

707
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 1: ship is irritated because It's like it's almost like they

708
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: think they fucking invented the wook. No, listen, listen, and

709
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: they need to know it. Like like anytime you're about

710
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 1: to make some money, someone did something that you can

711
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 1: do best stepping on that shoulder. You definitely don't ever

712
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 1: think that when I want you to understand real interviewing

713
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 1: a lot of these younger young cats who are popping

714
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, yeah, they have an O G who

715
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: I remember in the scene. Oh yeah, what I question

716
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 1: needs to be I'm telling them, yes, but you can't

717
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: tell him. You can't tell him that right now. You

718
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 1: have to understand the way that that the game is.

719
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 1: But it's I've witnessed it. Yeah, but around the man,

720
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,719
Speaker 1: they didn't know that that who's the kid with the

721
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 1: Oh my god, had the nerve hold on, let me

722
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,200
Speaker 1: put some one of these little cats. You know, this

723
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,359
Speaker 1: cat had the nerve to not want to I had

724
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 1: to had to drop off of the show because what's

725
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 1: this dude's name? I didn't want to do a show

726
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 1: what they considered an old school artist. Yeah, it was

727
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 1: just dude that it was better than Big Sing got

728
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 1: he got no Yeah, J what what I'm saying like

729
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: his people wasn't telling them, like do you know who?

730
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:58,880
Speaker 1: It was? Just his family? O g they they old

731
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: Supreme team, Like that's his that's his aunt. Yeah, I

732
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 1: know that's disappointed man, because it's what is because because

733
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 1: they're diminishing the murder kids right now when you don't

734
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 1: want to, when you don't want to associate, what's just

735
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:17,799
Speaker 1: self privileged. Like the reason that rocking is because of

736
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 1: what we But I think the way the system is

737
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 1: filing for generation to the only reason his son is

738
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: rocking is because what we Because because what we built,

739
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 1: That's the only reason. Again, nobody wants these A lot

740
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:39,319
Speaker 1: of young kids don't want to be reminded because again,

741
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,279
Speaker 1: but think when you were young. The difference is that

742
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 1: when we were young, we were the building blocks of

743
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 1: this ship. So we were creating something new. But at

744
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 1: the same time, we didn't want to hear from somebody

745
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,879
Speaker 1: else above us telling us how to do something we're doing.

746
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 1: But the differences we were creating something. Now these kids

747
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 1: already it's been created for them, and they don't want

748
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 1: to be reminded about what I would have welcomed it,

749
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,799
Speaker 1: don't welcome to have jumped in my b M. Yeah,

750
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 1: but it's different. But it's different. But it's different. It's

751
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 1: different because you're coming back to what said, you're coming

752
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 1: from from that generation that's thought that beginning. We also

753
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 1: respected our elders exactly. Yeah, like if I've had a

754
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 1: show and and and yeah and yeah. But you know

755
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,320
Speaker 1: the kids now they you know, I'm you know, I

756
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 1: don't say it, but they all the crack kids like

757
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 1: they're that you know, no parents, they don't have no foundation.

758
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:38,919
Speaker 1: But that's that disconnects I'm saying, like like I can't

759
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 1: even blame that. I gotta blame us as a community.

760
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 1: We missed there, you know what I'm saying, right, because

761
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: they missed the correct parents. Well these corrections. Yes, yeah,

762
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 1: and it has a lot to do with Once again,

763
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:56,760
Speaker 1: it all brings down to family structure, you say, especially

764
00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:01,840
Speaker 1: in our communities. Family structure is the fact that systemically

765
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 1: deploy has been to keep it fraction has to be acknowledged. Thing.

766
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 1: Here's the thing. Everything you know, we should we should

767
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 1: take onus as a community. But that's that's not necessarily

768
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 1: so because you do have O g S that school

769
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,319
Speaker 1: of young people. One once you say something they don't

770
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:33,520
Speaker 1: want to hear they shut off. That's one. Two is

771
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:37,839
Speaker 1: you could see labels like a label could I could

772
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:42,200
Speaker 1: be trying to sign destroy, you could be you could

773
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 1: be the label that signed and destroy. And I'm telling

774
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 1: destroy some jewels because this is what labels would do.

775
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:54,719
Speaker 1: Now destroy, you're gonna tell destroy. You can't be hanging

776
00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 1: around this because you know, giving to me jewels. They

777
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:02,800
Speaker 1: didn't want you the school, these young kids because the

778
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 1: stuff they was doing. I mean, there's so many just

779
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 1: different things. The labels due to this day to funk

780
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: over artists. You know, we could go into this whole

781
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:19,240
Speaker 1: streaming ship. This whole ship is fucking legal. We signed

782
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 1: for streaming, so how are you gonna tell us what

783
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,959
Speaker 1: you're paying us for? But that's how they did it though,

784
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:28,360
Speaker 1: the labels and the streaming companies. They take they argument

785
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:34,919
Speaker 1: the Congress. Congress helps the label and fucking streaming work

786
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 1: a deal and tell y'all, well, y'all take care to artists.

787
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 1: Come on, artists shouldn't be getting fucking damn there uh

788
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:47,719
Speaker 1: sage of opinion starts are selfish and they're not organized

789
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 1: quick with the with the and I was once again

790
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 1: I was working the radio. Then they went after the

791
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 1: record come I mean the radio stations, saying that the

792
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 1: radio stations actually also kind of check to the artists

793
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,680
Speaker 1: from the from the songs that they have been playing,

794
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 1: so they actually have to go to countries at the

795
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:10,080
Speaker 1: same time. And what they did was they got to

796
00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:13,160
Speaker 1: bed once again. They worked deals with the labels. The

797
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:16,000
Speaker 1: labels were deal with the radio stations, and at the

798
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 1: end of the day, the person got screwed was the artists.

799
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:20,719
Speaker 1: The artists still get screwed because you didn't know, You

800
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 1: didn't even know what people were spending on your budget,

801
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,320
Speaker 1: people in staff, but you know that that we're working

802
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 1: your right without questions. Now that I'm not even affiliated

803
00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 1: with the label, I've literally done shipped on other people's

804
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:41,040
Speaker 1: budgets becausehip I recorded music on most depths. Budget was

805
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 1: I had, you know, saying like like what kind of

806
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,680
Speaker 1: ship is that? For that? That? Of course I was appreciative,

807
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,359
Speaker 1: but nonetheless, you know what I'm saying, like, wow, I did.

808
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 1: I had no idea that it was that simple. It's

809
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 1: deep because artists. As an artist, artists want to make

810
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:59,520
Speaker 1: music autely. They don't understand the level of what we

811
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:03,480
Speaker 1: talk about business. Why I'm out here. They wanted out

812
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:06,919
Speaker 1: here right now. I apologize. I'm out here right now

813
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,760
Speaker 1: paid by deaf jam. I am not a deaf jam artist.

814
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,279
Speaker 1: I get that. Listen, man, It's like I said, it's

815
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:17,799
Speaker 1: the same It's the same business. And and uh, you

816
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:21,080
Speaker 1: know the artists artists when you talk about TV and film,

817
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 1: that's all I know is TV and film. And I

818
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 1: know when I look at a person and let me

819
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,640
Speaker 1: just use a name, let's use Will Smith, right, who's

820
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 1: come through the record industry and now he's in the

821
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 1: movie industry, I, for the life of me can't understand

822
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 1: why a guy that's probably got a I would imagine

823
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:39,520
Speaker 1: probably got over a hundred million dollars in the bank,

824
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: why he wouldn't say, no, no no, I'm not taking your money.

825
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna finance my own movies from now on, and

826
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 1: I can go get my own distribution deal like what

827
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 1: master P did in music and so many others that

828
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: we know about that we're talking about. Why wouldn't Will

829
00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 1: Smith say, hey, I would put my money up. Oprah,

830
00:46:57,480 --> 00:46:59,640
Speaker 1: you've got five man, let's let's put our money up

831
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,799
Speaker 1: and make our own film and distribute that ship. Do

832
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:09,360
Speaker 1: you not think that that would hit it's fair because

833
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 1: somebody like like Will Smith is created by television and movies.

834
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:20,200
Speaker 1: He's created by that. A person like Russell, for instance,

835
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,799
Speaker 1: it's not created by the industry. So he gets to

836
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 1: make his own moves and he knows what it is

837
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 1: to invest in himself. Now, when an artist that's been

838
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 1: given so much money or actor that's been given so

839
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:38,399
Speaker 1: much money by the industry him the thought of him

840
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:42,840
Speaker 1: putting his own money in and then that's one. Two

841
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 1: is now you're about to go against the ground again.

842
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:50,840
Speaker 1: Do you really want to do that because you're not informed,

843
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 1: you're not at and on top of that, let let

844
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 1: me finish on top of that that Will has to

845
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 1: have a vision, you Bentley, you have a vision. That's

846
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:08,560
Speaker 1: what makes you the most dangerous is because the stories

847
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 1: in the vision you can tell about us as a community.

848
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:17,840
Speaker 1: White people can't do that. So the people you speak to,

849
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:22,120
Speaker 1: as far as your TV shows and your demographics, they

850
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 1: can't take that from you. And they don't know how

851
00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:29,360
Speaker 1: to do our type of movies. How many movies that

852
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 1: they did where they tried to go back in time

853
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,399
Speaker 1: to fucking outfit is fucked up. The slang is fucked up.

854
00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:39,200
Speaker 1: They can't do that. So that that is your gift,

855
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 1: that is your superpower that you could live off for

856
00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:44,600
Speaker 1: the rest of your life, because you get it when

857
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 1: somebody comes through and say, Yo, many I got this idea, Boom, boom,

858
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:53,319
Speaker 1: you get it, fifty cents get it right being math,

859
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 1: he's winning and he's figured out a way to do

860
00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:00,320
Speaker 1: it by utilizing their their their money still in their shane,

861
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 1: which is brilliant in itself right right, and and to

862
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:06,759
Speaker 1: kind of I think even kind of go further until

863
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 1: what we're talking about, why why Will Smith might not

864
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and why you know someone

865
00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:16,880
Speaker 1: else might and should? Um? You know, like I think

866
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:24,440
Speaker 1: that there's a level of a degree of um of

867
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 1: of comfortability, you know what I'm saying with with with

868
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,839
Speaker 1: what you're with what you're doing. You know, I'm saying

869
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:36,879
Speaker 1: as far as as far as you willing to take

870
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:40,680
Speaker 1: a risk, you know, saying on your own now doing

871
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:43,359
Speaker 1: it with someone else, I think he'd probably be more

872
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:46,120
Speaker 1: willing to do that. Doing it with three people, he'd

873
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:49,120
Speaker 1: probably be more willing to that. And I think that

874
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,320
Speaker 1: that is one of our that that it hasn't happened

875
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:58,960
Speaker 1: is one of our problems. Hey, thanks for listening. I
