Alright, little Doc, how did you 185 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: get into the work. I'm assuming you got into a 186 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: relatively young but you had these conversations in prison, which 187 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 1: is really part of the work. Yes, sir, I started 188 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: uh Man Kitchen Moe. We was talking up in prison 189 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: together about coming out to the streets because we we've 190 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: seen what was and then in prison, you know, we 191 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: just two real you know, crips talking, you know, rivalries, 192 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: but men kitchen more, never being came at each other, 193 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: game banging because he grew up in my hood too, 194 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: so we always was friends. So we never came at 195 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: each other. And what we did in prison, we saw 196 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: how we was just up in there getting along, you know, 197 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: like it stops right here though. But on the streets 198 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: we're trying to kill each other and have it at 199 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: each other. But then we hit the county jail, we're 200 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: still trying to have it each other. Then we hit 201 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: the prison yard. Just like I can't do that. Explain 202 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: that to the millions of listeners of the Gangster chronicles 203 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: around the world who don't understand that where you added 204 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: in the streets, you added in the county, but as 205 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: soon as you hit that level four, everybody's united on 206 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: racial lines.

And that's the way we did are so 364 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: so forth. It's been going cool. Even when we had 365 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 1: the truth, it's been going cool because we put it 366 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: in two young dudes hands. We met us in the 367 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: coaches and they young homies mad and so for being respect.

And and see that's the thing with a 370 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: lot of the young homies don't respect a lot of 371 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 1: the big homies. How to how the whole thing that's 372 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: got out of the whack because a lot of the 373 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: big armies kind of left the little homies out there 374 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: to see him for themselves. You know what I'm saying. 375 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 1: And that's why me at fifty nine years old, I 376 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: still keep a relationship with my little homies that represent 377 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 1: the neighborhood. You know what I'm saying, and they respect 378 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: me for that. You know, I ain't got to be 379 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: over there under them. I got two or three jobs, 380 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I ain't got to be 381 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: over there checking on them. I ain't got to be 382 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: over there worrying about what they're doing and making sure 383 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 1: they're safe. But because I care, and because I know 384 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: a lot of them gang banging because they saw me 385 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,679 Speaker 1: doing it, you know what I'm saying, And so I 386 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 1: feel responsible now that I know, I know what's way 387 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: I posted. They pust a really go to be an 388 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: example the example I am. Now. I want them to. 389 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 1: I want them to grow old like me. I want 390 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 1: them to have grandkids like me, you know what I'm saying. 391 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: But they going the where they're going, They're not gonna 392 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: get this age, you know what I'm saying. And so 393 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: that's what my thing is about. You know, I think 394 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: it's it went crazy because some of the big homies 395 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 1: went to the crack and it's hard to respect, to 396 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 1: respect the big homie. But then they look at you, 397 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: one of the big homies that that still dress good 398 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: still doing this thing and respect itself. They have to 399 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: respect you them the ones should be scared of that's 400 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: still doing anything and it's still coming to the hood 401 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: and pushing it like that, you know what I'm saying. 402 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: So it's hard to still be that nigger. And that's 403 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: where it's killing it because ain't ready to go do 404 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: thirty five. I ain't ready to say that.

And and you know we 738 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:20,400 Speaker 1: can't bring them back, but that don't mean we can't 739 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: stop this ship from happening again and again and again. 740 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. We shouldn't lose two thirty 741 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: brothers in a month, you know what I'm saying. And 742 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:35,319 Speaker 1: that's that's all over. But I look at it like this. 743 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: Everything is against us as game bangers, as black men, 744 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: the whole nine, and everything is against us what y'all doing. Now, 745 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,240 Speaker 1: You're gonna have people come and gonna try to cut 746 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,839 Speaker 1: that down because they don't want that not coming from us. 747 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 1: Many black people black men. If we all got together 748 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: and just like how you said, and they and and 749 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 1: and this ship just really worked, okay, and everybody is 750 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 1: just man, I've seen a blue rag in a red 751 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: rag that goddamn gang station on the period. What's happening 752 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 1: over there. Police don't want that ship, So they're gonna 753 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: find a way. Remember back in the days how they 754 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: used to do it. But the thing about it now 755 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 1: is I'm down for this. So it'll make a difference 756 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:20,799 Speaker 1: who come in a way of it. Because if I 757 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: could die for a street, I could die for another 758 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 1: youngster on the streets. It's the right way.

Uh, this was before 1073 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:23,879 Speaker 1: before he got killed. Okay, so this wasn't inspired by 1074 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:26,880 Speaker 1: seeing this brother losers life. Y'all was already had the 1075 00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:29,320 Speaker 1: ball rolling on it. Already I had the ball rolling. 1076 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:33,560 Speaker 1: And okay, when we had the ball rolling, and what 1077 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 1: we whatever. What I think what everybody got from Nipsey 1078 00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:42,279 Speaker 1: is don't get rich and run to the hills on 1079 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:46,400 Speaker 1: on everybody. So Nipsey got rich and started buying up 1080 00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:49,320 Speaker 1: the community where you know, he stood out the selling 1081 00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:52,480 Speaker 1: CDs here and there, and now he owned this stuff 1082 00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 1: so with that, he taught us to get back into 1083 00:55:56,600 --> 00:56:00,160 Speaker 1: the community and own something so we won't have to 1084 00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:03,360 Speaker 1: be like this the hood and we don't own nothing, 1085 00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:06,880 Speaker 1: getting ran off in front of everything. So he taught 1086 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 1: us to get inspired to own some things. That's I think. 1087 00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 1: Once Nipsey, you know, finished that goal at he bought 1088 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:16,640 Speaker 1: that whole lot and everything around there, I think that's 1089 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:19,360 Speaker 1: why God called him home because his job was done, 1090 00:56:19,440 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 1: his purpose was done, he accomplished when he came here 1091 00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:26,080 Speaker 1: to accomplish, he said, standards for all of us to 1092 00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:29,120 Speaker 1: look at as black men, whether we crips or bloods, 1093 00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 1: whatever you call yourself in these streets, something and own it. 1094 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,319 Speaker 1: And that's what I think everybody got from Nipsey, you know. 1095 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 1: And he inspired us. But you know, me and Sych, 1096 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 1: we ended up calling a few crips to the table 1097 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:47,160 Speaker 1: and we gotta catch him more Pork and smoke came 1098 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 1: out of sight from Swan's right.
