<v Speaker 1>So Filthy Rich for people who are not familiar with

0:01:57.400 --> 0:02:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Filthy Rich is a I would just say, an independent

0:02:02.080 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 1>juggernaut from the Bay Area. He has put out I mean,

0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:09.120
<v Speaker 1>in the interview he told us he's put out over

0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:12.880
<v Speaker 1>one hundred projects, which is crazy to think, right, but

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:15.799
<v Speaker 1>you know the guy. You know, whether or not you're

0:02:15.800 --> 0:02:18.440
<v Speaker 1>a fan of his music. I think this podcast is dope,

0:02:19.000 --> 0:02:22.960
<v Speaker 1>great conversation, probably the best Filthy Rich interview that's ever

0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:25.400
<v Speaker 1>been recorded, because I've interviewed Filthy before in the past

0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:27.520
<v Speaker 1>that it was less the Desira boom. So he was

0:02:27.560 --> 0:02:30.360
<v Speaker 1>super engaged during this interview, talked a lot about his

0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:34.600
<v Speaker 1>independent hustle, and I just think it was a great conversation, man,

0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:36.760
<v Speaker 1>So shout out to Filthy Rich's new album is out.

0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:39.080
<v Speaker 1>Like I said, even if you're not a fan of

0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:44.560
<v Speaker 1>his music, this is a dope conversation. Nonetheless, we're gonna

0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:23.159
<v Speaker 1>to the album Man Dope Body of Work. Do you

0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:28.960
<v Speaker 1>feel like this is like a like the coronavirus everything

0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:30.640
<v Speaker 1>has been going on. I feel like you. It feels

0:05:30.680 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 1>like you took a lot of time on this project, Like, uh,

0:05:34.720 --> 0:05:38.280
<v Speaker 1>it felt real personal too. It is because of the title,

0:05:39.160 --> 0:05:41.039
<v Speaker 1>like it's kind of like the sequel to Fake Love

0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:44.880
<v Speaker 1>and then No Real Hate. But I feel like the

0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:47.720
<v Speaker 1>previous project, Hometown hero before that was like that also,

0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:51.360
<v Speaker 1>like I feel like you like like vulnerable on this album.

0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I feel like on Hometown Heroes like that too. I'm

0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:58.839
<v Speaker 1>just growing, you know. You know, we're growing every day

0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:01.920
<v Speaker 1>and going through different thing. So I mean me as

0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:07.400
<v Speaker 1>an artist, I've been just like giving you me like

0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:11.080
<v Speaker 1>what I'm going through, how I'm feeling. So it just

0:06:11.120 --> 0:06:12.880
<v Speaker 1>that and then another thing too, you know, we grow

0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:15.320
<v Speaker 1>as artists every day as we gain new fan base

0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:17.839
<v Speaker 1>every day too, so maybe more people might be more

0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:21.919
<v Speaker 1>be tuning in more lately and just probably just missed

0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:29.039
<v Speaker 1>out on the past stuff. I think it's dope that independently,

0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:33.560
<v Speaker 1>what you've built over the last twelve years, it's very impressive.

0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:35.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure that there's opportunities for you to, you know,

0:06:36.040 --> 0:06:39.839
<v Speaker 1>go to major label out plenty of times I'm curious

0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.880
<v Speaker 1>what they want. They want everything, of course they do.

0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 1>I had a few interviews whatever, and they was like

0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 1>they wanted whole catalog and merge touring and all that,

0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.080
<v Speaker 1>we want to cut it all everything, And I'm like, well,

0:06:55.120 --> 0:06:57.160
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know y'all in two thousand and eight, right

0:06:57.240 --> 0:07:00.920
<v Speaker 1>right right right far from here on up right even forward. Yeah,

0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:04.040
<v Speaker 1>like we I can't do that. I can't take down

0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:06.480
<v Speaker 1>what I already built up and then give it to you.

0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 1>And then just so happened, I didn't do it, and

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:10.600
<v Speaker 1>then Corona hit. I would have been asked out. So

0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:13.440
<v Speaker 1>that was something that was recently them. I mean, it

0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:15.200
<v Speaker 1>made a few times, but yet the last one was

0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:17.200
<v Speaker 1>right before. Can you tell us who it was with

0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:20.320
<v Speaker 1>rock Nation? So rock Nation was was was trying to

0:07:20.320 --> 0:07:22.240
<v Speaker 1>do business with Filthy Rich and they, Yeah, I had

0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.920
<v Speaker 1>I had a mean sat down out here, and that

0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:29.040
<v Speaker 1>was something that it looked like it would have been

0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.160
<v Speaker 1>like more of a three sixty situation like they were

0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:32.880
<v Speaker 1>they were gonna want a piece of everything you had

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 1>going on, including your old catalog everything. Yeah, see that

0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:41.480
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't make sense, like you said, from here forward. Yeah,

0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:46.120
<v Speaker 1>from me having an independent mindset, like I'm seeing money

0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:49.920
<v Speaker 1>off digital, you know, and royalties and sound and change

0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:52.680
<v Speaker 1>and ass cap and YouTube or whatever. So it's like, okay,

0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:54.360
<v Speaker 1>I gotta give y'all all of this. I don't even

0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:56.720
<v Speaker 1>know y'all, Like I don't know what you're about to

0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:59.080
<v Speaker 1>do for me or not gonna do for me, you

0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:02.080
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying so I'm making a chance as

0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:06.120
<v Speaker 1>in believing in y'all and hoping that y'all are going

0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:08.160
<v Speaker 1>to do something. If y'all don't, then I'm just out

0:08:08.160 --> 0:08:10.880
<v Speaker 1>of paid y'all already. Yeah, and then you're like you're

0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:14.400
<v Speaker 1>you're left with less than you had before. Who Now,

0:08:14.520 --> 0:08:17.360
<v Speaker 1>obviously you know everyone associates Rock Nation would whole like,

0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:19.720
<v Speaker 1>who was it that initially worked? Like? It was it

0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:21.559
<v Speaker 1>like do you know if like jay Z was aware

0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:23.760
<v Speaker 1>of like your what you got going on? Or because

0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:25.360
<v Speaker 1>you know they have their own an rs and their

0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:29.240
<v Speaker 1>own people, and it was it was the rock Nation management.

0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:32.839
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't the label side got you, but they was

0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:36.240
<v Speaker 1>willing to bring me to a label and it was

0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:38.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean it it's no like bad Blood or anything,

0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 1>of course not. No. I mean, look, people, you should

0:08:41.600 --> 0:08:44.080
<v Speaker 1>always take every meeting. I take that to everybody. But

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:47.719
<v Speaker 1>his name is Daniel actually the Lion spaper dad, Oh

0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:51.480
<v Speaker 1>that's what's up? Yeah, man, that's crazy because Daniel though

0:08:51.800 --> 0:08:54.480
<v Speaker 1>even just believing in me, want to sit down talk

0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:56.560
<v Speaker 1>to me, like he came to my neighborhood, like he

0:08:56.679 --> 0:09:01.400
<v Speaker 1>came to I think at least party album least party

0:09:01.480 --> 0:09:03.920
<v Speaker 1>or I had going on. He tapped in. He really

0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:05.880
<v Speaker 1>came to the hood. THEAP was really trying to Yeah,

0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:07.880
<v Speaker 1>and I had a video shoot out here and Inglewood

0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:09.959
<v Speaker 1>he came through, so he really was rocking with me though,

0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:11.480
<v Speaker 1>and I just talked. I just talked to him to

0:09:11.520 --> 0:09:14.120
<v Speaker 1>the Actually that's so. But I want to talk about

0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:16.600
<v Speaker 1>your like, like, because a lot of people who are

0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:19.120
<v Speaker 1>watching this might not be necessarily familiar with who Filthy

0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Rich is. Like, obviously you've been doing this for a

0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:25.480
<v Speaker 1>long time independently from Oakland the like, I feel like

0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:28.679
<v Speaker 1>there's something about the Bay Area and independence. They go

0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:33.240
<v Speaker 1>hand in hand. It's been like that forever, like since

0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:35.439
<v Speaker 1>since they say Master peve been out there, you know

0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:38.320
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying, giving out the game, all the older

0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:41.760
<v Speaker 1>older guys been you know, with the independent route. Because

0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:44.839
<v Speaker 1>I guess it's just something that just like grew from

0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:46.800
<v Speaker 1>there to how I'll see it because like everywhere I

0:09:46.840 --> 0:09:49.880
<v Speaker 1>go anywhere else, they not really hip to it. True,

0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:52.040
<v Speaker 1>they're not really hip to it like they were more

0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:54.679
<v Speaker 1>like hell labeled this is this and all that. So

0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:57.400
<v Speaker 1>it's like and then like a lot of people when

0:09:57.400 --> 0:10:00.199
<v Speaker 1>they think of California, they don't think of Oakland, think

0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:02.400
<v Speaker 1>of La. Yeah, like, yeah, man, I'm about to come

0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:03.880
<v Speaker 1>to California. IM about to come with us. You can

0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:06.160
<v Speaker 1>get a deal. I'm like, man, ain't no labels out here.

0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:09.920
<v Speaker 1>The Empire the best thing going on right in the

0:10:09.960 --> 0:10:11.400
<v Speaker 1>Bay Area. So I'm like, you mean you're going to

0:10:11.480 --> 0:10:13.480
<v Speaker 1>La or something like right, right right, it ain't the same.

0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:18.440
<v Speaker 1>This is one of the biggest states of the hood.

0:10:19.200 --> 0:10:23.240
<v Speaker 1>So when it comes to your strategy, Like, I'm curious

0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:26.719
<v Speaker 1>because I feel like a lot of artists who are

0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:32.520
<v Speaker 1>watching this are probably real Like most people, man, Brian

0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Samson bro never ceases to fucking amaze me anyway, I

0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:42.160
<v Speaker 1>feel like a lot of artists are obviously, if presented

0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:44.640
<v Speaker 1>with any record deal, would just take it. Like I'm

0:10:44.640 --> 0:10:47.240
<v Speaker 1>talking about like used to say they got a record right, right,

0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:51.920
<v Speaker 1>And it's kind of different when you getting money already, true,

0:10:51.960 --> 0:10:53.280
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. So it's like a lot

0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:56.280
<v Speaker 1>of these like I was just talking a lot of

0:10:56.280 --> 0:10:58.160
<v Speaker 1>these people, it's like, you're not fee the record me

0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:01.199
<v Speaker 1>and nobody go check out the podcastles you got something

0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:03.320
<v Speaker 1>to do with it? Or I mean that's not I mean,

0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:05.280
<v Speaker 1>that's not necessarily true. I mean I got homies that

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:07.520
<v Speaker 1>do for me to give somebody else if this is

0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:09.480
<v Speaker 1>how you can pay. So a lot of artists they're

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:13.880
<v Speaker 1>nothing to recommend another artist to get signed, knowing that

0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:16.439
<v Speaker 1>this person can be bigger than them, can take from them.

0:11:16.480 --> 0:11:18.520
<v Speaker 1>They have nothing to do with it unless they got

0:11:18.600 --> 0:11:21.800
<v Speaker 1>unless they co sign or sign to them. So especially

0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:24.200
<v Speaker 1>like if your artist has coming in and you already

0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:28.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, up to they level. There are situations, but

0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:30.640
<v Speaker 1>they're very few and far between where where there's some

0:11:30.760 --> 0:11:33.360
<v Speaker 1>genuine like you know, I got some genuine people. Yeah, yeah,

0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:35.560
<v Speaker 1>but the ones I've met, like you know, I mean,

0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:38.560
<v Speaker 1>it's the rap industry, this the game, so everybody looking

0:11:38.600 --> 0:11:41.160
<v Speaker 1>for it come up. This guy might be not popping

0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:43.400
<v Speaker 1>into music, but he got ties and connections with a

0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:47.240
<v Speaker 1>whole different you know, with what you need. So he's like, okay, man,

0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:49.080
<v Speaker 1>you gotta sign to me and I bring you up here,

0:11:50.000 --> 0:11:51.840
<v Speaker 1>or we gotta you gotta sign our management, you gotta

0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:55.120
<v Speaker 1>sign on our label. Whatever. So would you suggest artists

0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:59.320
<v Speaker 1>to stay independent and just you know, because like I'm

0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:03.120
<v Speaker 1>assuming at what point in time because if you started

0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:05.720
<v Speaker 1>in oh wait, I would say, like, at what point

0:12:05.760 --> 0:12:08.760
<v Speaker 1>in time were you making like real money off a rap.

0:12:09.760 --> 0:12:12.560
<v Speaker 1>What took a minute because it don't happen right away.

0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:15.400
<v Speaker 1>I was just talking to my bro Neft yesterday and

0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:18.839
<v Speaker 1>he was telling me about he had checked his dash

0:12:18.880 --> 0:12:20.600
<v Speaker 1>for that empire and he had like two hundred dollars

0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:22.360
<v Speaker 1>on it, and I was like, bro, you only put

0:12:22.360 --> 0:12:25.280
<v Speaker 1>out one song. You know what I'm saying. So I'm like,

0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:28.080
<v Speaker 1>it took a while. Like I used to give my

0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:30.680
<v Speaker 1>fifty dollars to go pay my metro bill. I be

0:12:30.720 --> 0:12:33.560
<v Speaker 1>with it. But the more I put out, I started

0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:36.040
<v Speaker 1>noticing more money. So that's that's what the independent game

0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:37.960
<v Speaker 1>came from. Like okay, man, So I'm looking at like

0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:40.320
<v Speaker 1>the catalog, keep me yeah, at the dope game, like

0:12:40.360 --> 0:12:42.959
<v Speaker 1>the like the CDs is the dope now, you know

0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:44.600
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. So the more I put out, the

0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:46.640
<v Speaker 1>more money I get. So it took for me to

0:12:46.679 --> 0:12:48.719
<v Speaker 1>go up there one day not to empire to a

0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:50.959
<v Speaker 1>different company. While back and I was they had to

0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:54.160
<v Speaker 1>check for me for five g's wow. And somebody I

0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:57.200
<v Speaker 1>was with was another artist and he was like, man,

0:12:57.440 --> 0:12:59.760
<v Speaker 1>how he get that? Like he was like, man, got

0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:03.520
<v Speaker 1>he's been dropping. He's been dropping. So I've seen that.

0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:07.280
<v Speaker 1>I've just been on it has that because I feel

0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:10.080
<v Speaker 1>like that still holds true now in the streaming era,

0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:12.240
<v Speaker 1>where like the more you drop, the more your Spotify

0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:15.160
<v Speaker 1>builds up. Like you know what I'm saying, Like, I mean,

0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:19.240
<v Speaker 1>like my biggest iTunes check like seventy five thousand. That's crazy.

0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:24.800
<v Speaker 1>That's for a month. Yeah wow, like once once it generates,

0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:32.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, it went from ten twenty fifty. That's crazy.

0:13:33.160 --> 0:13:35.920
<v Speaker 1>It was thirty at one point, and it goes up.

0:13:36.520 --> 0:13:38.520
<v Speaker 1>And that's when you get that call from Ghazi and

0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:41.959
<v Speaker 1>be like, hey, let me get this big old bag upfront.

0:13:42.120 --> 0:13:44.040
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying. I wanted to ask you

0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:46.360
<v Speaker 1>about there's a line on the intro where you say

0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:49.120
<v Speaker 1>the ops you're on the same label as the ops.

0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Now obviously you're on the empire. Our empire's got probably

0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:56.719
<v Speaker 1>they distributed so may like three thousand artists. I was

0:13:56.760 --> 0:14:00.520
<v Speaker 1>about to say it it's a lot, but I took

0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:03.960
<v Speaker 1>that at like what like what like I don't know

0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:06.160
<v Speaker 1>who all your ops are obviously, but I kind of

0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:07.839
<v Speaker 1>took that as like, Okay, is this Mazi thing is

0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:10.040
<v Speaker 1>still going on? Because I mean both both you and

0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:14.959
<v Speaker 1>MASI are both marquee artists and Empire uh now at

0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:17.640
<v Speaker 1>that time being, I wasn't even talking about him, okay,

0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:22.520
<v Speaker 1>because it's a lot of people at Empire that I

0:14:22.560 --> 0:14:26.840
<v Speaker 1>don't I'm fool with. Okay, So so those holiday parties

0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:32.640
<v Speaker 1>are interesting, Yeah, yo, I can't imagine that'd be interesting.

0:14:32.720 --> 0:14:37.040
<v Speaker 1>The last one was interesting. I didn't even see anybody,

0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:39.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure out of respect though, for like the company

0:14:39.000 --> 0:14:40.880
<v Speaker 1>and for Gazi, like it's yeah, yeah, me and gods

0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:43.520
<v Speaker 1>you talking. I'm gonna keep it real like like like

0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 1>that situation is just like some rap shit or whatever.

0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:51.880
<v Speaker 1>But it never went further than that. But Ghazi has

0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:54.760
<v Speaker 1>tried to play a big part in it, like suicide

0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:57.240
<v Speaker 1>and out of respect for him. You know, a lot

0:14:57.240 --> 0:14:59.960
<v Speaker 1>of things have been I feel like you two had

0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:02.040
<v Speaker 1>I had obviously some genuine love for each other at

0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:03.400
<v Speaker 1>a point in time in your life. That was the

0:15:03.440 --> 0:15:06.040
<v Speaker 1>whole point, right, that was the whole point. Like I

0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:09.400
<v Speaker 1>genuinely fucked with you. Yeah. A lot of people learned

0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:12.760
<v Speaker 1>of Mazi from you. Yeah. Yeah, so I genuinely fucked

0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:16.600
<v Speaker 1>with an Apparently you genuinely did so well. I mean,

0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:18.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, look, at the end of the day, I

0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:20.280
<v Speaker 1>feel like it's like beating a dead horse. Yeah, no, no,

0:15:20.320 --> 0:15:22.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you've talked about it a lot, but this

0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:25.000
<v Speaker 1>that line. I mean, he has also not might not

0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:27.720
<v Speaker 1>be vocal, like in interviews or whatever. I don't know

0:15:27.760 --> 0:15:30.720
<v Speaker 1>if they asked or say not to speak about it.

0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:33.400
<v Speaker 1>But I wasn't gonna speak about it. And then I

0:15:33.440 --> 0:15:34.960
<v Speaker 1>heard the album. I was like, I gotta at least

0:15:34.920 --> 0:15:37.480
<v Speaker 1>as about that line. Yeah, but you know in his

0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:40.840
<v Speaker 1>music he throws shots. So that's why you might hear

0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:44.520
<v Speaker 1>on the last album the new album. Yeah, so that's

0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:46.720
<v Speaker 1>where you might hear something from me come from. So

0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:50.920
<v Speaker 1>it's like, okay, a direct shot or a sub direct shots,

0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:53.280
<v Speaker 1>direct shots in the music. So it's like, Okay, what

0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:55.000
<v Speaker 1>do I do? Do I keep it going? Do I

0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:57.400
<v Speaker 1>say something? It's obviously unfortunate. I'm sure you guys have

0:15:57.680 --> 0:16:00.280
<v Speaker 1>tons of mutual friends, mutual acquaintances. We don't. Oh, you

0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:03.080
<v Speaker 1>guys don't. Nah. Well, a lot of people picked they

0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:07.520
<v Speaker 1>side seeing that sucks, right, because it's like, now it

0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:10.920
<v Speaker 1>don't suck, it doesn't suck. It's cool with me. I

0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:13.520
<v Speaker 1>don't care. I don't I swear to god, I don't care.

0:16:13.640 --> 0:16:15.920
<v Speaker 1>Like it's almost like it's funny to me. At the

0:16:16.000 --> 0:16:18.360
<v Speaker 1>end of the day because it's like, you guys wouldn't

0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:21.320
<v Speaker 1>even know each other. I didn't introduce you to him,

0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:24.080
<v Speaker 1>and then you guys still pick the side and you

0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:28.560
<v Speaker 1>have nothing going on. Damn. So do you have you

0:16:28.680 --> 0:16:32.680
<v Speaker 1>noticed fans picking sides? Because that's where it gets kind

0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:34.480
<v Speaker 1>of because I remember when the jay Z nas people

0:16:34.520 --> 0:16:35.720
<v Speaker 1>was going on back in the day when I was

0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:37.720
<v Speaker 1>a kid, I was on Naza's side and I was like,

0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:42.240
<v Speaker 1>fuck jay Z. I don't really know if I noticed fans, right,

0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:45.600
<v Speaker 1>because you guys, you guys definitely share a lot of fans. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:16:45.640 --> 0:16:49.600
<v Speaker 1>we do. I know the rappers. I know it's the rappers.

0:16:50.280 --> 0:16:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Rappers have picked sides. That's fasting, Like you know, they

0:16:55.040 --> 0:16:58.480
<v Speaker 1>like ship. They feel like, you're gonna go fuck with

0:16:58.560 --> 0:17:00.480
<v Speaker 1>this lingo. They're gonna go fuck with me because of

0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:03.560
<v Speaker 1>whatever I think. I feel like too. With hip hop,

0:17:03.600 --> 0:17:09.040
<v Speaker 1>it's like, did you notice people who you knew before

0:17:09.080 --> 0:17:11.800
<v Speaker 1>he knew them? She was in the Masi side of course,

0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Like like, can you say who? Because they're not relevant?

0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:18.360
<v Speaker 1>They're not so not relevant rappers at least not relevant

0:17:18.400 --> 0:17:21.879
<v Speaker 1>now fair enough. It might have been relevant when I

0:17:21.880 --> 0:17:24.639
<v Speaker 1>was working with them, but they're not relevant. Now, okay,

0:17:25.000 --> 0:17:29.840
<v Speaker 1>that's fair. You and Jim Jones have a dope record

0:17:29.840 --> 0:17:32.760
<v Speaker 1>on this project. In the couple, he's talking like you

0:17:32.760 --> 0:17:38.240
<v Speaker 1>guys go back to a decade now, has it? Like

0:17:39.000 --> 0:17:41.879
<v Speaker 1>you know you have you have records with so many artists,

0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:45.480
<v Speaker 1>so many legends. But I feel like there's just something

0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:49.560
<v Speaker 1>about that pedigree and and your work ethic and what

0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:52.520
<v Speaker 1>you've been building that just anybody who's paying attention has

0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:55.639
<v Speaker 1>to respect. Like even like when the big artists comes

0:17:55.680 --> 0:18:00.119
<v Speaker 1>to the Bay, grab me, bring me out, like no

0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:05.840
<v Speaker 1>fuck around or whatever. A lot of artists that were

0:18:05.920 --> 0:18:10.440
<v Speaker 1>talking before it like before they blew up, we've worked before, right, No, No,

0:18:10.800 --> 0:18:13.560
<v Speaker 1>we're talking about You were telling me that you had

0:18:13.560 --> 0:18:15.520
<v Speaker 1>an opportunity to sign Roddy Rich back in the day.

0:18:16.359 --> 0:18:18.159
<v Speaker 1>How how many years ago was this because Roddy's been

0:18:18.200 --> 0:18:20.680
<v Speaker 1>making music for a while since he was a kid.

0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:24.520
<v Speaker 1>Well this was right before he took off, before he

0:18:24.640 --> 0:18:26.560
<v Speaker 1>did whatevery deal with Nipp and Miek and or whatever,

0:18:26.880 --> 0:18:28.840
<v Speaker 1>like we had did, Like was this while he was

0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:32.359
<v Speaker 1>still with Bird? Yeah, okay, so you and Bird almost

0:18:32.359 --> 0:18:36.639
<v Speaker 1>connected together on Rodney mutual Friend. We came to the study.

0:18:36.640 --> 0:18:38.879
<v Speaker 1>I think we did like three records one night or whatever.

0:18:39.440 --> 0:18:42.320
<v Speaker 1>And same thing with Blue Face too. Me and Blue

0:18:42.320 --> 0:18:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Face we was in the lab before he took off.

0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:48.399
<v Speaker 1>Also out here like like i'd be in tuned to

0:18:48.440 --> 0:18:53.159
<v Speaker 1>what's going on. I've noticed I pay attention to him

0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:56.600
<v Speaker 1>man like he got to So why did why did

0:18:56.600 --> 0:18:59.399
<v Speaker 1>you end up not signing Roddy? It wasn't just that

0:18:59.560 --> 0:19:02.400
<v Speaker 1>then I didn't want or nothing like that. The opportunity

0:19:02.520 --> 0:19:04.639
<v Speaker 1>was brought to me through a mutual friend or whatever.

0:19:04.960 --> 0:19:07.000
<v Speaker 1>We worked and then ship. After that, I just went

0:19:07.040 --> 0:19:10.840
<v Speaker 1>back to the bay. That that that's crazy state. We

0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:13.600
<v Speaker 1>stayed in contact. We still talk here in there. Me

0:19:13.640 --> 0:19:16.280
<v Speaker 1>and Face still talk here in there too. But I

0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:20.440
<v Speaker 1>mean I feel like it's better for him. I mean,

0:19:20.440 --> 0:19:22.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean he's having it. He's having a great run

0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:26.720
<v Speaker 1>right now. Same thing with Blue Face. Oh with the

0:19:26.720 --> 0:19:30.040
<v Speaker 1>other guy, I could have signed him too. I'm sure

0:19:30.080 --> 0:19:33.320
<v Speaker 1>that that's for some change. Yeah, I mean you would

0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:34.920
<v Speaker 1>have think that would have made tense back then. Me.

0:19:34.960 --> 0:19:37.240
<v Speaker 1>I want to see everybody be a boss. I want

0:19:37.240 --> 0:19:40.399
<v Speaker 1>to see everybody like I gave him niggas a plan

0:19:40.560 --> 0:19:43.520

0:20:49.520 --> 0:20:50.960
<v Speaker 1>I just told him, like, I don't want nothing. I

0:20:51.000 --> 0:20:54.040
<v Speaker 1>just want you to keep working. That's fire, man. I

0:20:54.040 --> 0:20:55.480
<v Speaker 1>wish somebody would have did that for me when I

0:20:55.520 --> 0:20:57.760
<v Speaker 1>was coming up. Do you ever see a world in

0:20:57.800 --> 0:21:00.919
<v Speaker 1>which you and Mazica have a conversation and recontell we

0:21:01.000 --> 0:21:03.760
<v Speaker 1>can holler that's good thinking for show holler like it ain't.

0:21:04.080 --> 0:21:06.000
<v Speaker 1>It ain't to the point like nothing's happened to me,

0:21:06.040 --> 0:21:07.639
<v Speaker 1>nothing happening, and it felt like some and we got

0:21:07.680 --> 0:21:10.440
<v Speaker 1>some good rap music out of it. Yeah we did. Man,

0:21:10.480 --> 0:21:12.639
<v Speaker 1>Look you was snapping on your ship. He was. Now.

0:21:12.640 --> 0:21:14.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, like, you know, look, as long as it

0:21:14.359 --> 0:21:16.720
<v Speaker 1>stays on music, I'm all for for some rap beef.

0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:18.679
<v Speaker 1>But it has to stay on music. That's the problem.

0:21:18.880 --> 0:21:21.720
<v Speaker 1>When you look at somebody like you and someone like Mazie.

0:21:21.760 --> 0:21:25.919
<v Speaker 1>I remember when it first happened, I was like, shit,

0:21:26.560 --> 0:21:30.119
<v Speaker 1>someone's gonna die. Man. Remember these are the two motherfuckers

0:21:30.119 --> 0:21:33.360
<v Speaker 1>that I don't like. I wouldn't want to see anybody

0:21:32.080 --> 0:21:36.639
<v Speaker 1>be You gotta understand too though, it was like like

0:21:37.720 --> 0:21:40.160
<v Speaker 1>and then even from from a fan both, I mean

0:21:40.200 --> 0:21:43.400
<v Speaker 1>when you both like one of the dudes where you're from. Yeah,

0:21:43.520 --> 0:21:45.879
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, Like shit can't go sour,

0:21:46.520 --> 0:21:48.480
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. So and at the end

0:21:48.480 --> 0:21:52.440
<v Speaker 1>of the day too, like Nigga's not finished. I thought

0:21:52.440 --> 0:21:54.119
<v Speaker 1>they like the way, you know what I'm saying. So

0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:57.920
<v Speaker 1>it's like, okay, I'm gonna get your scenario. When he

0:21:57.960 --> 0:22:01.600
<v Speaker 1>made the song the Killed Every song, he posted a

0:22:01.600 --> 0:22:04.560
<v Speaker 1>picture of my house at the time, being which it

0:22:04.680 --> 0:22:06.320
<v Speaker 1>wasn't my house at the time. I remember that, but

0:22:06.800 --> 0:22:08.480
<v Speaker 1>the next day the police was in front the house.

0:22:09.440 --> 0:22:12.400
<v Speaker 1>I remember seeing that and being like ship here it goes. Yeah.

0:22:12.560 --> 0:22:16.960
<v Speaker 1>So with that being said, like once the police get involved,

0:22:17.000 --> 0:22:20.120
<v Speaker 1>I just left it along because like if a rock wood,

0:22:20.119 --> 0:22:21.359
<v Speaker 1>it went through the window and hit him in the

0:22:21.400 --> 0:22:22.800
<v Speaker 1>head and he passed out there to try to come

0:22:22.840 --> 0:22:27.320
<v Speaker 1>grab me. Right police involved, I'm done with it. That's

0:22:27.320 --> 0:22:29.880
<v Speaker 1>why I didn't even respond to that for that. That's fair.

0:22:31.520 --> 0:22:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Do you and and Roddy have any unreleased music together. Yeah,

0:22:34.320 --> 0:22:39.359
<v Speaker 1>we do. What's that studio? We had room? You guys

0:22:39.359 --> 0:22:41.080

0:22:54.920 --> 0:22:57.959

<v Speaker 1>right right, right? So that's just that, that's just kind

0:24:19.480 --> 0:24:22.239
<v Speaker 1>of protocol. Yeah, so that's what it was. But at

0:24:22.240 --> 0:24:23.879
<v Speaker 1>the end of the day, the person they did the

0:24:23.920 --> 0:24:28.040
<v Speaker 1>album with he in a fucked up situation and and

0:24:28.480 --> 0:24:31.600
<v Speaker 1>all this shit happened over a dope that's crazy, over

0:24:31.640 --> 0:24:36.399
<v Speaker 1>a crackhead happened over that. Who is the artist he

0:24:36.440 --> 0:24:41.720
<v Speaker 1>did that? That's what the messed up. Shout out the

0:24:41.760 --> 0:24:43.600
<v Speaker 1>mile he shut out both of them. You know what

0:24:43.600 --> 0:24:46.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, Like, I ain't mad. I'm not upset, like,

0:24:46.880 --> 0:24:49.360
<v Speaker 1>ain't no shade, like do y'all thing whatever? We don't.

0:24:49.359 --> 0:24:53.439
<v Speaker 1>We don't. There's twenty twenty. I'm getting too much money. Bro.

0:24:53.480 --> 0:24:57.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm still comping these forums, bro, still sucking these bitches still.

0:24:57.480 --> 0:24:59.160
<v Speaker 1>I also feel like with what's going on in the world,

0:24:59.240 --> 0:25:01.800
<v Speaker 1>like it's like they're not like you know, a lot

0:25:01.840 --> 0:25:04.440
<v Speaker 1>of people should probably put it aside that ain't that

0:25:04.640 --> 0:25:07.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, like we don't have the vibe you talk like,

0:25:07.520 --> 0:25:09.000
<v Speaker 1>they don't got to be. It was a time before

0:25:09.040 --> 0:25:10.560
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know you. I was straight, so I don't

0:25:10.760 --> 0:25:14.000
<v Speaker 1>It's almost like, yo, people don't got to worry if

0:25:14.000 --> 0:25:16.800
<v Speaker 1>you guys run into each other. I don't know, or

0:25:16.800 --> 0:25:19.240
<v Speaker 1>at least on your end. I don't know that's fair.

0:25:19.600 --> 0:25:22.520
<v Speaker 1>I can't say that because I don't know the vibe

0:25:22.520 --> 0:25:24.680
<v Speaker 1>when it happens, you know what I'm saying. That's saying

0:25:24.720 --> 0:25:27.600
<v Speaker 1>as in music wise. I'm not tripping, as in like

0:25:27.760 --> 0:25:30.800
<v Speaker 1>rying about you making songs or whatever. But I don't know.

0:25:30.840 --> 0:25:32.399
<v Speaker 1>You might be turned up when you see me, or

0:25:32.400 --> 0:25:34.680
<v Speaker 1>I might be turned up. I don't know. I've heard

0:25:34.680 --> 0:25:38.000
<v Speaker 1>this before about you. Is there cities where you can't

0:25:38.000 --> 0:25:41.400
<v Speaker 1>perform in because of the police. Is Vegas one of them?

0:25:41.640 --> 0:25:44.399
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, someone told me that, Like, yeah, man, I forget.

0:25:44.560 --> 0:25:47.199
<v Speaker 1>I was talking to somebody about something with you. I

0:25:47.200 --> 0:25:50.080
<v Speaker 1>think me and John Cosson were talking and I was like,

0:25:50.080 --> 0:25:53.000
<v Speaker 1>what about Vegas? He can't do Vegas Metro on his head.

0:25:53.440 --> 0:25:55.119
<v Speaker 1>It ain't that thing on my head. It's just what

0:25:55.240 --> 0:25:58.240
<v Speaker 1>we rap about. Well, yeah, plus, I mean that's that's

0:25:58.240 --> 0:26:00.679
<v Speaker 1>a city where a lot of rappers can't perform. But

0:26:00.840 --> 0:26:03.439
<v Speaker 1>was there anything that happened out there? It was just

0:26:04.320 --> 0:26:07.199
<v Speaker 1>your subject matter. I mean they lay with me as

0:26:07.200 --> 0:26:10.120
<v Speaker 1>a game member, but I'm not a game mem Yeah.

0:26:10.320 --> 0:26:12.119
<v Speaker 1>They put that on a lot of people. Now. So

0:26:12.359 --> 0:26:15.800
<v Speaker 1>and I can't perform in Oakland. You can't even perform

0:26:15.880 --> 0:26:20.879
<v Speaker 1>your hometown. How long has that been going on? In

0:26:20.960 --> 0:26:24.560
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and eight? Oh wow, so since you've been popping,

0:26:24.600 --> 0:26:26.399
<v Speaker 1>you haven't been able to perform at home. I just

0:26:26.400 --> 0:26:30.359
<v Speaker 1>did the Road in loud, but they welcome you off stage. Wow,

0:26:31.760 --> 0:26:38.280
<v Speaker 1>that's crazy, man, King of Oakland. You know, you proclaim

0:26:38.359 --> 0:26:42.760
<v Speaker 1>yourself as the King of Oakland. A lot of people,

0:26:43.359 --> 0:26:46.159
<v Speaker 1>I think a lot of people who aren't from or

0:26:46.160 --> 0:26:48.960
<v Speaker 1>who aren't in tune. Rather, they kind of just group

0:26:49.040 --> 0:26:53.399
<v Speaker 1>the Bay together. Right, It's like everyone thinks he forties

0:26:53.440 --> 0:26:56.840
<v Speaker 1>from Oakland. No, he's from Vale. I'm saying a lot

0:26:56.880 --> 0:26:58.879
<v Speaker 1>of people think that. I'm saying people who don't know

0:26:58.920 --> 0:27:00.439
<v Speaker 1>what the fs going on. Like I told you, when

0:27:00.440 --> 0:27:03.199
<v Speaker 1>people think of Cally, they think of La exactly, the

0:27:03.280 --> 0:27:05.359
<v Speaker 1>Bay even more so because it's even more of a niche.

0:27:05.760 --> 0:27:10.480
<v Speaker 1>But like you have, like independently for Oakland done so much,

0:27:12.280 --> 0:27:15.040
<v Speaker 1>who's like that? The og of Oakland's probably too short, right,

0:27:16.280 --> 0:27:18.840
<v Speaker 1>So when you say you're the king of Oakland, do

0:27:19.480 --> 0:27:23.160
<v Speaker 1>you get any any sort of blowback from making that statement?

0:27:24.640 --> 0:27:28.879
<v Speaker 1>Keep it real? Like that song I just said that

0:27:28.920 --> 0:27:30.879
<v Speaker 1>one I don't I was just rapping like it's not

0:27:30.880 --> 0:27:32.560
<v Speaker 1>even a hook on the song. I just said it,

0:27:32.560 --> 0:27:35.400
<v Speaker 1>and it became like it ruffled a lot of feathers

0:27:35.920 --> 0:27:40.440
<v Speaker 1>from different artists. But Bathgate years ago saying he was

0:27:40.440 --> 0:27:43.200
<v Speaker 1>a king Oakland that in a minute. You know a

0:27:43.280 --> 0:27:45.399
<v Speaker 1>lot of people. I'm sure Yucklin said it. You know

0:27:45.440 --> 0:27:47.000
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. But at the end of the day,

0:27:47.960 --> 0:27:51.320
<v Speaker 1>the line came out and ran I just named the

0:27:51.359 --> 0:27:54.280
<v Speaker 1>song that. And guess what you should feel that way?

0:27:54.280 --> 0:27:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Because shorten't say nothing and big dogs ain't saying nothing

0:27:57.200 --> 0:27:58.720
<v Speaker 1>and t I used to, I mean, called himself the

0:27:58.760 --> 0:28:00.960
<v Speaker 1>King of the South. But he you know, he went

0:28:01.000 --> 0:28:03.840
<v Speaker 1>through who he went through with flipping every but like

0:28:03.920 --> 0:28:08.280
<v Speaker 1>nobody from what I've heard up there, that's able to

0:28:08.680 --> 0:28:11.320
<v Speaker 1>even say anything that that's able to dispute that said

0:28:11.320 --> 0:28:13.680
<v Speaker 1>anything say saying nothing. You know, I got a lot

0:28:13.680 --> 0:28:15.760
<v Speaker 1>of love for short, I got a lot of love

0:28:15.800 --> 0:28:18.200
<v Speaker 1>for all the old g's from Oakland that then did

0:28:18.200 --> 0:28:19.560
<v Speaker 1>what they did. I look up to him, you know

0:28:19.600 --> 0:28:21.199
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying, because they did it before me. How

0:28:21.200 --> 0:28:23.040
<v Speaker 1>could I not you know what I'm saying, especially because

0:28:23.040 --> 0:28:25.600
<v Speaker 1>they from East Oakland. Also, he're the guys that was

0:28:25.600 --> 0:28:27.560
<v Speaker 1>coming through my neighborhood. These are guys I'm seeing what

0:28:27.640 --> 0:28:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm selling dope on the corner, like looking up to

0:28:29.800 --> 0:28:31.320
<v Speaker 1>like who I wanted to be, like coming to hang

0:28:31.359 --> 0:28:33.919
<v Speaker 1>with my old g's from my hood. So it's no

0:28:34.000 --> 0:28:35.520
<v Speaker 1>shape to none of them by me saying that. But

0:28:35.640 --> 0:28:39.840
<v Speaker 1>as in musically wise and popping and who who doing

0:28:39.840 --> 0:28:42.720
<v Speaker 1>what they're doing consistently one hundred albums, not even just

0:28:42.720 --> 0:28:45.320
<v Speaker 1>one hundred albums, just saying that's crazy because even though

0:28:45.400 --> 0:28:48.080
<v Speaker 1>that's consistent, one hundred saying like, for the past year

0:28:48.120 --> 0:28:49.959
<v Speaker 1>since I've been there, I've been out, Yes, since twenty ten,

0:28:51.040 --> 0:28:54.520
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, So that's ten years. Yeah,

0:28:54.880 --> 0:28:57.800
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of the Oakland rappers that you know

0:28:58.440 --> 0:29:00.600
<v Speaker 1>been doing they thing. It ain't been consistent. It's been

0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:03.200
<v Speaker 1>here and there, a song here, video there, feature here,

0:29:03.240 --> 0:29:05.280
<v Speaker 1>or whatever. But it just you know, you might not

0:29:05.360 --> 0:29:07.200
<v Speaker 1>be as hot as you was this year, but you

0:29:07.280 --> 0:29:09.480
<v Speaker 1>staying warm because you're still working and you might pop

0:29:09.480 --> 0:29:11.640
<v Speaker 1>off again, but as long as you stay consistent, you're

0:29:11.640 --> 0:29:13.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna still keep yourself in the groove. I wanted to

0:29:13.960 --> 0:29:15.960
<v Speaker 1>ask you because I know you'll pull up in the

0:29:16.000 --> 0:29:20.280
<v Speaker 1>city and yo, who need the features? Tap in? Has

0:29:20.320 --> 0:29:22.320
<v Speaker 1>anybody ever hit you? Because you know there's a lot

0:29:22.320 --> 0:29:25.040
<v Speaker 1>of struggle rappers out there making some horrible music. Has

0:29:25.040 --> 0:29:26.760
<v Speaker 1>anybody ever hit you in one of these cities you're

<v Speaker 1>good for you with this project, this Yellow Beasy record.

0:30:27.520 --> 0:30:29.360

0:30:29.400 --> 0:30:31.720
<v Speaker 1>the fifty cent thing together? Nah? You just told me

0:30:31.720 --> 0:30:34.440
<v Speaker 1>about that, okay, because I asked you. Because what happened

0:30:34.440 --> 0:30:36.600
<v Speaker 1>when I just did the song. I was going to

0:30:37.680 --> 0:30:39.800
<v Speaker 1>Originally what I was going to do was it was

0:30:39.840 --> 0:30:41.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna be no hook on it. I was because I

0:30:41.400 --> 0:30:43.760
<v Speaker 1>had to beat tracked out. So I was just going

0:30:43.760 --> 0:30:46.840
<v Speaker 1>to make like the sample louder for the hook, right,

0:30:47.600 --> 0:30:50.760
<v Speaker 1>And then I'm like, man, I started looking at the

0:30:50.840 --> 0:30:53.400
<v Speaker 1>features on the album. I'm like, let me get somebody

0:30:53.920 --> 0:30:56.320
<v Speaker 1>for Texas, because that's how I work, Like, I try

0:30:56.360 --> 0:30:58.760
<v Speaker 1>to pay attention to where my mark is at. Feed them.

<v Speaker 1>in states on the tape. So that's how it kind

0:31:09.480 --> 0:31:11.440
<v Speaker 1>of works. So if you pay attention to my music,

0:31:11.480 --> 0:31:14.320
<v Speaker 1>that's how it is in those markets. Like I'm big

0:31:46.000 --> 0:31:47.680
<v Speaker 1>was gonna come on the hook. It was kind of girly.

0:31:48.000 --> 0:31:50.920
<v Speaker 1>How how much are you having to adjust your hustle

0:31:50.960 --> 0:31:52.560
<v Speaker 1>for what's going on with the COVID, like on the

0:31:52.640 --> 0:31:55.239
<v Speaker 1>music side, because obviously the live shows ain't what they

0:31:55.320 --> 0:31:57.360
<v Speaker 1>used to be, Like, yeah, I ain't really had no

0:31:57.480 --> 0:32:00.520
<v Speaker 1>shows since then. I had like five shows canceled when

0:32:00.600 --> 0:32:02.560
<v Speaker 1>everything hit. That's what I'm saying, Like, have you had

0:32:02.560 --> 0:32:05.680
<v Speaker 1>to adjust your business model or the way you're getting

0:32:05.680 --> 0:32:07.600
<v Speaker 1>bred through the music? Like, has there been anything that

0:32:07.640 --> 0:32:10.040
<v Speaker 1>you've had to switch up or anything that you've had

0:32:10.040 --> 0:32:12.240
<v Speaker 1>to do different? It's been doing the same thing, dropping

0:32:12.240 --> 0:32:14.240
<v Speaker 1>the music and then doing a lot of videos. Like

0:32:15.000 --> 0:32:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the tape got eighteen songs on it, but I'm about

0:32:17.240 --> 0:32:19.520
<v Speaker 1>to drop the Deluxe, which would between two and I

0:32:19.840 --> 0:32:23.600
<v Speaker 1>hot fifteen videos already. Wow? Is there gonna be a questions?

0:32:23.640 --> 0:32:26.760
<v Speaker 1>Videos already done? Oh? Wow? Did you shoot it in Dallas?

0:32:26.760 --> 0:32:30.960
<v Speaker 1>In Dallas? In Dallas? Uh? I just had a video

0:32:31.000 --> 0:32:37.120
<v Speaker 1>yesterday with jack Boy, and then I got the video

0:32:37.280 --> 0:32:40.720
<v Speaker 1>with rich Gannon with Blue Bucks play right shout to him,

0:32:40.840 --> 0:32:44.200
<v Speaker 1>m M, and then all solo songs on the videos

0:32:44.200 --> 0:32:49.640
<v Speaker 1>already done. Obviously being somebody who's come from a street background,

0:32:50.440 --> 0:32:52.360
<v Speaker 1>I asked Berner this question, and I think he said

0:32:52.360 --> 0:32:54.560
<v Speaker 1>he lost like two million dollars. What is the biggest

0:32:54.720 --> 0:32:57.120

0:33:54.680 --> 0:33:58.240
<v Speaker 1>touching my back. I've been there. I'm sick. I have

0:33:58.440 --> 0:34:00.800
<v Speaker 1>been there with that feature. You're still trying to do

0:34:00.840 --> 0:34:03.520
<v Speaker 1>that in there. Listen. That made me stop. I had to.

0:34:03.840 --> 0:34:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I had to, like, I had to leave it alone.

0:34:05.800 --> 0:34:08.279
<v Speaker 1>I was a sport been in there one day, sports

0:34:08.320 --> 0:34:11.960
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars and it came out and left thirty yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:34:12.000 --> 0:34:15.120
<v Speaker 1>came out. It's like it's a high bro. Balance yourself out.

0:34:15.400 --> 0:34:17.239
<v Speaker 1>When I first moved to Vegas, that's all I used

0:34:17.239 --> 0:34:20.319
<v Speaker 1>to do. I go shopping, I go, I go, spend

0:34:20.320 --> 0:34:22.960
<v Speaker 1>about ten thousand, go shopping, go right to the table,

0:34:23.040 --> 0:34:27.239
<v Speaker 1>get the money back to a year. So I used to,

0:34:27.320 --> 0:34:29.720
<v Speaker 1>damn there, leave my bag still call me, hey, mister Beasley,

0:34:29.760 --> 0:34:31.120
<v Speaker 1>you left your bags here. I had to go back

0:34:31.160 --> 0:34:32.440
<v Speaker 1>at the bags. I hadn't got the money and went

0:34:32.520 --> 0:34:34.600
<v Speaker 1>cast out and left and forgot about the clothes and

0:34:34.600 --> 0:34:36.239
<v Speaker 1>shit I bought. But I used to do that like

0:34:36.360 --> 0:34:39.080
<v Speaker 1>every day. Just so craps is your game of choice,

0:34:39.080 --> 0:34:41.359
<v Speaker 1>because kind of Vegas is born like if it ain't

0:34:41.400 --> 0:34:45.240
<v Speaker 1>nothing going on. So it's like shopping, studio or gambling.

0:34:45.280 --> 0:34:46.879
<v Speaker 1>Like it's not really too much to do with strip

0:34:46.960 --> 0:34:48.840
<v Speaker 1>clubs at night time. I don't really go and the

0:34:48.840 --> 0:34:50.919
<v Speaker 1>strip clubs there kind of fell off. I don't really

0:34:50.920 --> 0:34:52.319
<v Speaker 1>go out like that to the clubs or whatever. So

0:34:52.360 --> 0:34:54.840
<v Speaker 1>I just go gambling, go shopping. And you remember, h

0:34:54.920 --> 0:34:57.840
<v Speaker 1>were you in Vegas when strip Hoop was popping? That

0:34:57.960 --> 0:35:00.960
<v Speaker 1>was a movie man in there. I remember Mark Sun

0:35:01.040 --> 0:35:03.160
<v Speaker 1>came in there. Turned one day someone got I remember

0:35:03.200 --> 0:35:05.520
<v Speaker 1>someone got smoking the lobby man and that was it

0:35:05.560 --> 0:35:08.279
<v Speaker 1>was a wrap they put the plug on that you

0:35:08.360 --> 0:35:10.080
<v Speaker 1>mentioned it. Remember. I don't know if you remember, but

0:35:10.160 --> 0:35:13.040
<v Speaker 1>I had bought a billy in La some years ago

0:35:13.640 --> 0:35:16.640
<v Speaker 1>and it came back stolen. Oh really, and I went

0:35:16.680 --> 0:35:20.360

0:36:05.760 --> 0:36:10.239
<v Speaker 1>a whole cd uh. That's the only thing that I

0:36:10.280 --> 0:36:12.000
<v Speaker 1>had on my schedule. I was I'm surprised you and

0:36:12.000 --> 0:36:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Burner never did a full joint that should be crazy

0:36:18.960 --> 0:36:22.080
<v Speaker 1>for the Bay. Do you man, burnt fu with me

0:36:22.160 --> 0:36:26.120
<v Speaker 1>like that? Really you're real? Yeah, he's done me like

0:36:26.120 --> 0:36:30.959
<v Speaker 1>that obviously personal out the Burner, but burn out this money,

0:36:31.120 --> 0:36:36.040
<v Speaker 1>but not the chemistry He's You guys just never got

0:36:36.200 --> 0:36:38.520
<v Speaker 1>like just we've been arounding to said, you guys just

0:36:38.560 --> 0:36:43.839
<v Speaker 1>never vibed. No we vibe. But I don't know, it's

0:36:43.840 --> 0:36:46.799
<v Speaker 1>just something, it's something near that you feel me that

0:36:46.880 --> 0:36:51.719
<v Speaker 1>it ain't being being talked about. But I mean, I mean,

0:36:52.200 --> 0:36:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't, I didn't. I didn't say this plenty of times,

0:36:54.000 --> 0:36:57.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, to the inside, people just feel like burn

0:36:59.040 --> 0:37:01.799
<v Speaker 1>he's a great dude though, like he's a he's a

0:37:01.800 --> 0:37:05.640
<v Speaker 1>good dude. He didn't through big shows of course, field

0:37:05.680 --> 0:37:10.560
<v Speaker 1>he's never involved. You know, he didn't do a lot

0:37:10.560 --> 0:37:14.640
<v Speaker 1>of stuff for the store or whatever, cookies and all that.

0:37:14.719 --> 0:37:17.279
<v Speaker 1>Field he's never involved. So I just be like, I mean,

0:37:17.480 --> 0:37:19.360
<v Speaker 1>just like we like I said, you talk about the

0:37:19.400 --> 0:37:21.360
<v Speaker 1>King Oak and stuff, like we know who's popping it

0:37:21.480 --> 0:37:24.840
<v Speaker 1>was going on. So if you're not supporting the hottest

0:37:24.840 --> 0:37:27.279
<v Speaker 1>person in the bay, like, you gotta be something. Do

0:37:27.360 --> 0:37:29.680
<v Speaker 1>you do you think because I feel like I mean

0:37:29.719 --> 0:37:34.000
<v Speaker 1>obviously taking that out aside, you know, unbiased, but do

0:37:34.040 --> 0:37:36.480
<v Speaker 1>you feel like for whatever reason, like I feel like

0:37:37.040 --> 0:37:38.920
<v Speaker 1>Burne is another one of those guys like you who's

0:37:38.960 --> 0:37:42.040
<v Speaker 1>just been killing shit for a long time. I just

0:37:42.040 --> 0:37:44.239
<v Speaker 1>feel but I have no issue. But do you feel

0:37:44.239 --> 0:37:46.560
<v Speaker 1>like he's slept on in hip hop? Because I feel

0:37:46.560 --> 0:37:48.360
<v Speaker 1>like he doesn't hit something. I feel like sometimes he

0:37:48.480 --> 0:37:50.560
<v Speaker 1>just doesn't like when when people mention the bay, like

0:37:50.840 --> 0:37:54.280
<v Speaker 1>for whatever reason, we all know him for weed and cookies,

0:37:54.360 --> 0:37:57.000
<v Speaker 1>but like musically, like he's been doing his thing for

0:37:57.040 --> 0:37:59.080
<v Speaker 1>so long, and I feel like sometimes he's I don't.

0:37:59.120 --> 0:38:00.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I don't really know because keep it real,

0:38:01.080 --> 0:38:04.000
<v Speaker 1>like no disrespect. I'm not really in tune to the music,

0:38:04.160 --> 0:38:06.799
<v Speaker 1>so I don't really know if he's being slept on

0:38:06.880 --> 0:38:09.000
<v Speaker 1>or not. Like we didn't done musically before, like I

0:38:09.000 --> 0:38:11.320
<v Speaker 1>think I was on the project with him and Dolph. Yeah,

0:38:11.360 --> 0:38:12.759
<v Speaker 1>he didn't done a song for me before in the

0:38:12.840 --> 0:38:15.560
<v Speaker 1>video whatever. But that's as far as it went, you

0:38:15.640 --> 0:38:17.640
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying. So other than that, you know,

0:38:18.280 --> 0:38:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I done went to the store before, cookies or whatever.

0:38:20.239 --> 0:38:22.399
<v Speaker 1>I just left the cookie store before we got here.

0:38:22.640 --> 0:38:24.880
<v Speaker 1>So it's not like it's not somebody. Yeah, but I

0:38:24.920 --> 0:38:26.680
<v Speaker 1>just I just feel like, you know, it's just something

0:38:26.680 --> 0:38:28.919
<v Speaker 1>in between. Like I even talked to people that's close

0:38:28.960 --> 0:38:30.840
<v Speaker 1>to him, right, bro, White Brother, don't fuck with me

0:38:30.920 --> 0:38:32.879
<v Speaker 1>like that, you know what I'm saying. So that's fair,

0:38:33.440 --> 0:38:37.680
<v Speaker 1>hopefully you guys. You know he's doing his things. I mean,

0:38:37.760 --> 0:38:40.600
<v Speaker 1>I take the game from him, as in the clothing,

0:38:40.760 --> 0:38:43.600
<v Speaker 1>the weed. You know I saw the last time I

0:38:43.600 --> 0:38:46.360
<v Speaker 1>saw you, you had your your your strain with you.

0:38:47.120 --> 0:38:50.359
<v Speaker 1>Is it kills? He was on JELYO five nine, Yeah,

0:38:50.400 --> 0:38:52.320
<v Speaker 1>and you gave me something and I smoked it and inspired.

0:38:53.360 --> 0:38:59.080
<v Speaker 1>But you're still high, Uh getting into the weed game

0:38:59.120 --> 0:39:03.040
<v Speaker 1>on the legal side obviously, you know, it's where the

0:39:03.080 --> 0:39:06.640
<v Speaker 1>world is going. It's crazy that we still got people

0:39:06.640 --> 0:39:09.480
<v Speaker 1>locked up in the United States over weed. Yeah, well

0:39:09.480 --> 0:39:12.000
<v Speaker 1>they probably locked up before it was This ship is

0:39:12.000 --> 0:39:14.880
<v Speaker 1>crazy now legal, That's what I'm saying. But now that

0:39:14.920 --> 0:39:17.400
<v Speaker 1>it's legal, should you know? But but but I'm curious, like,

0:39:17.560 --> 0:39:22.040
<v Speaker 1>have have you getting into that legal side of the

0:39:22.120 --> 0:39:25.000
<v Speaker 1>of the game? Is what's different about it? And like

0:39:25.200 --> 0:39:29.279
<v Speaker 1>have it's been challenging? It all very challenging because like

0:39:29.320 --> 0:39:31.280
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people do this ship like black market,

0:39:31.719 --> 0:39:33.279
<v Speaker 1>I want to do it that way. Like, if I'm

0:39:33.280 --> 0:39:34.480
<v Speaker 1>going to do it, I want to do it right.

0:39:34.920 --> 0:39:37.120
<v Speaker 1>So I've been working on trying to get the licensing

0:39:37.600 --> 0:39:40.600
<v Speaker 1>and then like you know, by them making it legal,

0:39:41.320 --> 0:39:43.200
<v Speaker 1>now they want to tax it, they want to touch it,

0:39:43.239 --> 0:39:44.799
<v Speaker 1>they want to see where it's been grown, they want

0:39:44.840 --> 0:39:49.560
<v Speaker 1>to test it. So you know, for black man like myself,

0:39:50.160 --> 0:39:52.640
<v Speaker 1>they ain't just gonna just you know, let me in.

0:39:52.760 --> 0:39:54.799
<v Speaker 1>So I gotta figure it out and wiggle my way.

0:39:54.800 --> 0:39:58.480
<v Speaker 1>I got a wiggling you know, that's fair? Yeah, have

0:39:58.560 --> 0:40:01.399
<v Speaker 1>you is there like any states are areas that are

0:40:01.400 --> 0:40:04.520
<v Speaker 1>easier to get your license in. I mean, because I've

0:40:04.560 --> 0:40:06.680
<v Speaker 1>noticed some of the homies go to Oklahoma. They want

0:40:06.760 --> 0:40:09.399
<v Speaker 1>they want to see where it's being grown at. They

0:40:09.400 --> 0:40:10.640
<v Speaker 1>want to they want to see where it's been grown.

0:40:10.640 --> 0:40:12.279
<v Speaker 1>They want to test it, they want to they want

0:40:12.280 --> 0:40:14.160
<v Speaker 1>to do all that. So they ain't just about the license.

0:40:14.280 --> 0:40:16.680
<v Speaker 1>More to it. There's a lot more to it. Put

0:40:16.680 --> 0:40:18.279
<v Speaker 1>it in stores. I don't just want to like this

0:40:18.400 --> 0:40:20.200
<v Speaker 1>is like me selling meat on the corner, like to

0:40:20.239 --> 0:40:22.239
<v Speaker 1>do black market. I want to have my right. So

0:40:22.280 --> 0:40:24.080
<v Speaker 1>when they come in or into the cookie story, like

0:40:24.360 --> 0:40:26.880
<v Speaker 1>get the kills on, they got the jars, everything professional.

0:40:26.920 --> 0:40:28.480
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying. I think it's dope though

0:40:28.480 --> 0:40:32.120
<v Speaker 1>that you're like, you know, diversifying man, especially, you got

0:40:32.160 --> 0:40:35.759
<v Speaker 1>to diversify it now. A lot of these because where

0:40:35.800 --> 0:40:38.239
<v Speaker 1>I come from, you know what I'm saying, they love

0:40:38.280 --> 0:40:41.040
<v Speaker 1>to try to get me for anything, right like they already,

0:40:41.080 --> 0:40:42.920
<v Speaker 1>like you said, they are labeled. A lot of people

0:40:42.960 --> 0:40:44.359
<v Speaker 1>label he was a gang member. A lot of these

0:40:44.400 --> 0:40:49.040
<v Speaker 1>law enforcement agencies and that comes from I think the

0:40:49.120 --> 0:40:52.640
<v Speaker 1>chief of police is from here in Oakland, so it's

0:40:52.680 --> 0:40:55.640
<v Speaker 1>like he that's how they think they think gang gang, gang,

0:40:55.680 --> 0:40:58.880
<v Speaker 1>gang because they what it was. They wanted me to

0:40:58.920 --> 0:41:01.839
<v Speaker 1>sit down with them and talk to them and film it,

0:41:02.600 --> 0:41:06.359
<v Speaker 1>Like are you crazy? I'm like, I can't do that, Yeah,

0:41:06.360 --> 0:41:08.359
<v Speaker 1>of course not. I'm not. I probably can have somebody

0:41:08.440 --> 0:41:12.480
<v Speaker 1>representing me and talk or whatever, but me not to

0:41:12.520 --> 0:41:16.080
<v Speaker 1>say it like that. But you're if that leaded with

0:41:16.120 --> 0:41:19.200
<v Speaker 1>the way the internet works, now, listen, that's all it takes. Listen.

0:41:19.280 --> 0:41:21.480
<v Speaker 1>One day, I was in the hood, right and it

0:41:21.600 --> 0:41:24.320
<v Speaker 1>was a cop and he put up in the truck

0:41:24.360 --> 0:41:27.359
<v Speaker 1>playing my music. Wow. So he in the truck playing

0:41:27.400 --> 0:41:29.720
<v Speaker 1>the music, right, So I'm like, I'm about to recording.

0:41:30.400 --> 0:41:33.759
<v Speaker 1>So I recorded it. If I didn't posted, I deleted it.

0:41:34.200 --> 0:41:37.040
<v Speaker 1>And then he jumped to my DM. It was like

0:41:37.120 --> 0:41:39.799
<v Speaker 1>he was like, hey boss, this me the cop that

0:41:39.920 --> 0:41:41.400
<v Speaker 1>was just playing the music. Can you see me in

0:41:41.400 --> 0:41:44.719
<v Speaker 1>that video? And I showed everybody in the neighborhood. I

0:41:44.920 --> 0:41:46.279
<v Speaker 1>know how he could read it, but don't open it.

0:41:46.920 --> 0:41:50.359
<v Speaker 1>So I showed everybody in the neighborhood and I deleted it.

0:41:50.880 --> 0:41:52.920
<v Speaker 1>So because if I would have responded back to that,

0:41:53.200 --> 0:41:54.959
<v Speaker 1>people would have been like, yore you talking to the coup.

0:41:55.160 --> 0:41:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Like if I responded back to that, he would have

0:41:57.040 --> 0:42:00.600
<v Speaker 1>screenshot that and sent that out come on they had

0:42:00.719 --> 0:42:02.799
<v Speaker 1>had me on rad Facts and all that type of stuff. Man,

0:42:03.080 --> 0:42:06.279
<v Speaker 1>it would have been crazy. Oh man, crazy. You know

0:42:06.320 --> 0:42:09.080
<v Speaker 1>what sucks though, it is like you could have did that,

0:42:09.160 --> 0:42:12.160
<v Speaker 1>and that's okay because you wouldn't do nothing wrong, but

0:42:12.360 --> 0:42:15.200
<v Speaker 1>just how people would have token. But it's the internet hating.

0:42:15.480 --> 0:42:17.920
<v Speaker 1>So the internet is crazy, bro. Yeah, they want to

0:42:17.960 --> 0:42:20.800
<v Speaker 1>say They say anything. Man, they say anything. But do

0:42:20.840 --> 0:42:23.759
<v Speaker 1>you feel like uh, you know, I was. I was.

0:42:25.200 --> 0:42:27.920
<v Speaker 1>We had Freddy Gibbs on the podcast and he had

0:42:27.920 --> 0:42:30.120
<v Speaker 1>said something conservous that you saw that video with Gunner

0:42:30.280 --> 0:42:35.279
<v Speaker 1>on Crime Stoppers. That's that's different and that's pretty he

0:42:35.400 --> 0:42:37.319
<v Speaker 1>was telling. So I was going to ask you when

0:42:37.320 --> 0:42:40.120
<v Speaker 1>you see something like that, because something that you're talking

0:42:40.120 --> 0:42:42.000
<v Speaker 1>about is not the same thing. Man, they're gonna take

0:42:42.000 --> 0:42:45.440
<v Speaker 1>it as telling. Also, you spoke to the police. Me

0:42:45.560 --> 0:42:48.680
<v Speaker 1>sitting down and the police. I don't know if they

0:42:48.760 --> 0:42:52.560
<v Speaker 1>understand that how it would look, but me sitting down

0:42:53.080 --> 0:42:55.080
<v Speaker 1>like I'm talking to you and talking to them, and

0:42:55.120 --> 0:42:57.600
<v Speaker 1>they feeling and putting out there. You know, they gonna

0:42:57.880 --> 0:43:01.360
<v Speaker 1>crop it and memes and and twisted, you know what

0:43:01.400 --> 0:43:04.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying. So it's just do I do I lose

0:43:04.560 --> 0:43:08.440
<v Speaker 1>my credibility and it can affect your rap career to

0:43:08.480 --> 0:43:13.640
<v Speaker 1>be able to perform and get money legally. So if

0:43:13.680 --> 0:43:16.960
<v Speaker 1>I do this, I can get paid to perform. But

0:43:17.040 --> 0:43:18.680
<v Speaker 1>if I don't, have to just suck it up and

0:43:18.760 --> 0:43:22.279
<v Speaker 1>just say fuck it, make money out of my pocket,

0:43:22.640 --> 0:43:24.000
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. So it's like, how do

0:43:24.040 --> 0:43:27.480
<v Speaker 1>you win the same thing with the legal system. It's like, Okay,

0:43:28.280 --> 0:43:30.080
<v Speaker 1>you go to jail, you get put on ankle, money

0:43:30.120 --> 0:43:33.160
<v Speaker 1>there or whatever. You can't have a pistol on you.

0:43:33.239 --> 0:43:36.839
<v Speaker 1>But you in the streets. You in the streets. You've

0:43:36.840 --> 0:43:39.680
<v Speaker 1>been in streets all your life, so yourself. So it's

0:43:39.719 --> 0:43:42.600
<v Speaker 1>either go to jail or die? Which one? Which one

0:43:42.640 --> 0:43:46.320
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna do? Poison is So it's like a Lulu situation.

0:43:46.440 --> 0:43:48.759
<v Speaker 1>Really yo, I know you you dabble in the real

0:43:48.840 --> 0:43:52.359
<v Speaker 1>estate hustle. No, don't dabble in the real estate hustle.

0:43:52.600 --> 0:43:55.600
<v Speaker 1>You got houses everywhere that are like you got houses.

0:43:55.880 --> 0:43:58.319
<v Speaker 1>I don't got real estate houses to where I flipping. Okay,

0:43:58.320 --> 0:44:01.319
<v Speaker 1>so you don't get in and nah, gods, he told

0:44:01.360 --> 0:44:03.160
<v Speaker 1>me to do that a long time ago, but I

0:44:03.239 --> 0:44:06.360
<v Speaker 1>just haven't. I just been working my way down different things. Eventually,

0:44:06.360 --> 0:44:08.040
<v Speaker 1>I probably will you get there. Yeah, I've been doing

0:44:08.040 --> 0:44:12.480
<v Speaker 1>the clothing, the dogs, the weed, the modewn company. I'm

0:44:12.520 --> 0:44:15.759
<v Speaker 1>an artist. I'm really trying to stop rapping. You say

0:44:15.800 --> 0:44:20.120
<v Speaker 1>you have a modeling company in the Bay Area. What

0:44:20.239 --> 0:44:22.440
<v Speaker 1>kind of modeling company were talking about? You? Females? They

0:44:22.440 --> 0:44:26.960
<v Speaker 1>do videos, hosting, well, you name it. Are they on backpage?

0:44:28.200 --> 0:44:31.880
<v Speaker 1>Nothing like that? By the way, back pages retired. Everything

0:44:32.040 --> 0:44:36.960
<v Speaker 1>is legal, man, everything. Hey, technically, technically you could you

0:44:37.000 --> 0:44:41.280
<v Speaker 1>could hang out with someone and them girls have boyfriends, husbands, whatever.

0:44:41.680 --> 0:44:44.560
<v Speaker 1>I just came together and grabbed some models from the

0:44:44.600 --> 0:44:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Bay Area and made a company. We did photo shoots,

0:44:47.600 --> 0:44:49.640
<v Speaker 1>we did the new hustlers. You got to get a

0:44:49.640 --> 0:44:52.920
<v Speaker 1>piece of their Only fans. I don't think about that.

0:44:53.200 --> 0:44:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Only fans is legal. I don't know anything about that.

0:44:59.160 --> 0:45:01.680
<v Speaker 1>It's crazy because now, like like like if you're a

0:45:01.719 --> 0:45:04.879
<v Speaker 1>stripper and like you're struggling right now and you haven't

0:45:04.920 --> 0:45:09.040
<v Speaker 1>made an only fans account, like you're crazy. You No,

0:45:09.239 --> 0:45:11.400
<v Speaker 1>not me. I'm married, I'm straight, but I'll be seeing

0:45:11.440 --> 0:45:17.040
<v Speaker 1>motherfucking rappers got only fans accounts and ship if I did,

0:45:17.120 --> 0:45:21.080
<v Speaker 1>boy but I'm talking about even motherfuckers. I wouldn't be

0:45:21.120 --> 0:45:23.919
<v Speaker 1>doing nothing. I'll be suing what the girls doing, right,

0:45:24.120 --> 0:45:25.440
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. Like I wouldn't be on

0:45:25.520 --> 0:45:27.640
<v Speaker 1>there like me. You wouldn't see me, of course not.

0:45:27.719 --> 0:45:29.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean you wouldn't see my face and nothing, but

0:45:29.440 --> 0:45:33.640
<v Speaker 1>you would see them what they doing. My Only fans

0:45:33.640 --> 0:45:35.640
<v Speaker 1>would go crazy. I'm telling you some niggas that be

0:45:35.640 --> 0:45:38.480
<v Speaker 1>mad around here, Like yo, my wife was on Filthy Riches.

0:45:38.520 --> 0:45:43.320
<v Speaker 1>Only fans be serious how much they get paid that? Uh?

0:45:43.920 --> 0:45:46.759
<v Speaker 1>I think it all depends, like it's like a monthly thing.

0:45:47.719 --> 0:45:49.719
<v Speaker 1>We got a friendned Brian Sampson, who would know he

0:45:49.840 --> 0:45:55.000
<v Speaker 1>subscribed to butch might start me fans, Hey, that'd be fire.

0:45:55.520 --> 0:45:58.320
<v Speaker 1>Have just chicks like send you ship, No, no, just

0:45:59.400 --> 0:46:02.359
<v Speaker 1>that I've dealt with so real women videos there you got.

0:46:02.640 --> 0:46:04.399
<v Speaker 1>I got phones full of videos like I could dig

0:46:04.400 --> 0:46:09.080
<v Speaker 1>into archives get popping and get popping right quick. But

0:46:09.120 --> 0:46:12.880
<v Speaker 1>they'll probably try to sue me, Like the girls. It

0:46:12.920 --> 0:46:15.680
<v Speaker 1>depends on what state you're in. If you filmed it,

0:46:15.960 --> 0:46:18.680
<v Speaker 1>they watching it. No, no, but listen, listen. If you

0:46:18.760 --> 0:46:21.000
<v Speaker 1>filmed it on your phone, you own it. It's and

0:46:21.200 --> 0:46:23.600
<v Speaker 1>I think in California it's a one party consent so

0:46:23.680 --> 0:46:26.640
<v Speaker 1>I think you're good. Oh yeah, that's that's why all

0:46:26.680 --> 0:46:28.160
<v Speaker 1>the porn companies are out here. That's why like the

0:46:28.239 --> 0:46:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Kim Kardashian tape, y J film that he owned the footage.

0:46:31.360 --> 0:46:32.960

<v Speaker 1>that was because there's a lot of you talk about

0:47:29.960 --> 0:47:31.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, what's going on with the COVID shit A

0:47:31.280 --> 0:47:33.879
<v Speaker 1>lot on there too, like did you you and Jim

0:47:34.200 --> 0:47:36.960
<v Speaker 1>recorded that joint in Miami? Nah, I sent the gyms

0:47:37.000 --> 0:47:39.279
<v Speaker 1>in the back fair enough. I just came up with

0:47:39.320 --> 0:47:42.400
<v Speaker 1>the the idea with the hook, the name of it

0:47:42.480 --> 0:47:45.520
<v Speaker 1>from what he said whatever. I just left Miami all

0:47:45.640 --> 0:47:49.120
<v Speaker 1>shot two videos out there. Video for that song, I

0:47:49.120 --> 0:47:51.319
<v Speaker 1>shot this other song. I got four other songs for

0:47:51.360 --> 0:47:54.759
<v Speaker 1>the Deluxe for the that's a new way man to

0:47:54.840 --> 0:47:58.680
<v Speaker 1>go double up on them boom. I got some new

0:47:58.719 --> 0:48:01.160
<v Speaker 1>songs too. I might do it the CD, but I

0:48:01.239 --> 0:48:03.040
<v Speaker 1>might not. That might be my last CD real quick.

0:48:03.040 --> 0:48:05.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm cured like your last CD ever, she might retire.

0:48:06.360 --> 0:48:08.279
<v Speaker 1>I've been saying that's what I want to do, so

0:48:08.400 --> 0:48:10.680
<v Speaker 1>like you won't let me though, I was gonna say,

0:48:10.680 --> 0:48:12.719
<v Speaker 1>how do you figure? How do you like? Like? When

0:48:12.719 --> 0:48:18.480
<v Speaker 1>do you know it's time? When you when your interest

0:48:19.120 --> 0:48:21.200
<v Speaker 1>is it's something else? You know what I'm saying? Like

0:48:21.280 --> 0:48:25.279
<v Speaker 1>I said, like I got like other businesses, the only

0:48:25.320 --> 0:48:28.160
<v Speaker 1>fans it starts, you know what I mean. I don't

0:48:28.160 --> 0:48:31.120
<v Speaker 1>want to for one. I just don't want to sit

0:48:31.239 --> 0:48:35.000
<v Speaker 1>back and become a rapper that's just rapping and uh,

0:48:35.360 --> 0:48:39.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, no disrespect to any of the older rappers

0:48:39.239 --> 0:48:41.279
<v Speaker 1>from Oakland me. I don't want to do that, right.

0:48:41.320 --> 0:48:44.600
<v Speaker 1>I want to come in, get my w you know

0:48:44.640 --> 0:48:46.160
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying, and get in and get out and

0:48:46.200 --> 0:48:48.360
<v Speaker 1>leave it at that. And then this was this was

0:48:48.400 --> 0:48:50.440
<v Speaker 1>something to open the door for something else, you know

0:48:50.520 --> 0:48:51.880
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. So that's how I look at it.

0:48:51.960 --> 0:48:54.000
<v Speaker 1>But I've been doing a whole bunch of other stuff

0:48:54.000 --> 0:48:57.120
<v Speaker 1>that's been generating money. So you talked about Gazzi. You

0:48:57.160 --> 0:49:01.080
<v Speaker 1>guys obviously have a very strong relationship Empires. Uh. You know,

0:49:01.160 --> 0:49:02.719
<v Speaker 1>I think that they've kind of changed the way a

0:49:02.719 --> 0:49:08.040
<v Speaker 1>lot of people think about how they release music. What

0:49:08.280 --> 0:49:12.879
<v Speaker 1>is the like what what is asked Mazi the same thing,

0:49:13.480 --> 0:49:15.560
<v Speaker 1>like what is it about Gasi? What is it about

0:49:15.560 --> 0:49:20.480
<v Speaker 1>Empire that you know? It is so good? Because I like,

0:49:20.640 --> 0:49:22.799
<v Speaker 1>like you said, like major label has been knocking a

0:49:22.800 --> 0:49:27.480
<v Speaker 1>lot of people. Keep it real. See if I'm not mistaken,

0:49:27.520 --> 0:49:31.240
<v Speaker 1>I think like in twenty twelve, I was just releasing

0:49:33.480 --> 0:49:36.520
<v Speaker 1>music and then I think guys, he came looking for me.

0:49:36.920 --> 0:49:39.480
<v Speaker 1>It was like I have everybody but filthy, So I

0:49:39.520 --> 0:49:41.719
<v Speaker 1>came over there. I think I released a series of

0:49:41.840 --> 0:49:44.640
<v Speaker 1>sim City money Man It's one, two, three, four, and

0:49:44.680 --> 0:49:49.279
<v Speaker 1>then guys, he was seeing how my bad coming in

0:49:49.800 --> 0:49:53.120
<v Speaker 1>and then like, well, when you get a single, we'll

0:49:53.160 --> 0:49:56.560
<v Speaker 1>do official official album. So I made them make a

0:49:56.600 --> 0:49:59.439
<v Speaker 1>living record with soup. So I gave him that song,

0:50:00.239 --> 0:50:02.560
<v Speaker 1>and then that's when I created the album around the single.

0:50:03.120 --> 0:50:06.880
<v Speaker 1>So he was like, okay, let's do want to do

0:50:06.880 --> 0:50:09.719
<v Speaker 1>a budget for the single? Like yeah, and then I

0:50:09.840 --> 0:50:12.640
<v Speaker 1>went half. So I came in and brought the money

0:50:12.680 --> 0:50:14.399
<v Speaker 1>half of what he wanted to put up. And ever

0:50:14.440 --> 0:50:17.000
<v Speaker 1>since then he always like, I respect how you moved,

0:50:17.000 --> 0:50:19.840
<v Speaker 1>like you didn't just come with your hand out like

0:50:20.440 --> 0:50:22.640
<v Speaker 1>and then that's how he like introduced me to Dolf

0:50:22.719 --> 0:50:25.000
<v Speaker 1>because he was like, Dolph is the same way, like

0:50:25.040 --> 0:50:27.600
<v Speaker 1>you can, of course remind me of each other. So

0:50:28.360 --> 0:50:30.640
<v Speaker 1>and like anything I asked, like if I called Ghazi

0:50:30.760 --> 0:50:34.480
<v Speaker 1>for whatever, like it's done, Like I don't even remember

0:50:34.560 --> 0:50:37.040
<v Speaker 1>time he's ever told me no, so and I know

0:50:37.160 --> 0:50:39.640
<v Speaker 1>that he wants to see me win. I know that, yeah,

0:50:39.680 --> 0:50:42.360
<v Speaker 1>he's he's got. He really is all about pushing the

0:50:42.600 --> 0:50:46.520
<v Speaker 1>Bayman to the forefront of music. He like he he

0:50:47.000 --> 0:50:48.759

0:50:54.280 --> 0:50:56.000
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. I actually do it now, but it's

0:50:56.040 --> 0:50:57.719
<v Speaker 1>not on the pay road, right, you know what I'm saying.

0:50:57.719 --> 0:51:00.000
