00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 2: Man.

32
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 1: We had Juigo g in here a few weeks ago,

33
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 1: and I was just thinking about the city of Compton.

34
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: Compton is probably the number one rap city in the country, dog,

35
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 1: outside of Brooklyn and all that shit. Man, Compton, you

36
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: gotta you gotta think about it. From the nineties ship

37
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: even the eighties dog going up to now. Compano had

38
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: it on smash Now.

39
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: They tried to say that. You know, people nowadays, I

40
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 2: guess with the diversity of music, people are gonna be like, well,

41
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,959
Speaker 2: you can't say that now because the South the South is,

42
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: and the South that and whatever. Whatever.

43
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 3: So you gotta I guess you gotta go by time frame.

44
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 1: Well, you know what I'm gonna tell you, Like this, bro.

45
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 2: For a long time, we didn't have shit, you know

46
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 2: what I'm saying.

47
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 1: Think about this though, eight the South don't have some

48
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: cold people, man. You know, star Facing in the South

49
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 1: is a big region. Were talking about a city, man,

50
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: that don't do Compton even have one hundred thousand people

51
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:34,959
Speaker 1: in it?

52
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 2: Bro Uh, all depends on how you count it. I'm

53
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 2: sure one hundred thousand people do lived in Compton.

54
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, but let's say Coon got Compton ain't no big

55
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Compton not no no million population

56
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: of one million type of city though. You know it's

57
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: a small city, bro Compen is a small city and

58
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: the habits and the impact that it has on music. Dog,

59
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: I don't you know unless you're talking about like Brooklyn

60
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: and you know, the Bronx and all that stuff. They

61
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 1: was around since the inception of hip hop. You know,

62
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: I'm talking about this small city that's had the impact

63
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: on music. I doubt that anybody from New York or

64
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: anywhere else can say that they got some resident in

65
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 1: the city that has had the impact on music Compton.

66
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: Did Compton us really in the whole new genre?

67
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 3: Dog? Yeah?

68
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 2: But like you said, the Brooklyn's and the ships like

69
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 2: that has been around since the inception and are still

70
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 2: going on to this day too. So that's that's a

71
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: hard argument.

72
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, Compton, you know, Compton might be

73
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: you know you people are gonna.

74
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 2: Say you being biased now because of the Kendrick era.

75
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you're saying that because Kendricks got because like

76
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 2: I said, for a long time, we didn't have a lot,

77
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 2: we didn't have a lot to represent. You know what

78
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 2: I'm saying. Like I said, it's in, it's in time frames.

79
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: But let me kick this off though, dog, because no

80
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: matter the time frames were significant. Okay, First of all,

81
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: you got tidy t and mixed Master Spade that you

82
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: start off with, right, I would say that's probably the

83
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: I'm only naming people that actually lived in Compton, I

84
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: would say, the legendary, right.

85
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 3: Yeah.

86
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 1: Then you got the NWA era Dog, and you had

87
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: people that was claiming Compton, Compton was so influential back

88
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: in the day. You had people that didn't even live

89
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 1: in Compton claiming it. Right. So you had NWA. I

90
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: can't even begin to describe what they did for hip hop.

91
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:43,280
Speaker 1: You feel what I'm saying. It was just gangster rap,

92
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 1: not just gangster rap, Dog, just the whole thing.

93
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 2: Just because not everybody, nobody was accepting of gangster rap.

94
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, and had you tell it.

95
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: NWA destroyed a lot when it came to hip hop.

96
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 2: So you know, from other people's perspective.

97
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: Well, you know what, No, what n w A did

98
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: is they you know, let's just drop the gangster rap ship.

99
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: It was reality rap in its fines. They put the

100
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: spotlight on police brutality, put the spotlight on what the

101
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 1: average young dude in the neighborhood was going through. Right

102
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: then you got you know yourself, CMW You feel what

103
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: I'm saying, that era start. Then you got DJ Quick

104
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: across town. Then you have you just got this thing

105
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: man with so many rappers out of comptent Dog at

106
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: the time, I'm trying to think of a mall dog.

107
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 1: But Compton always had a place kind of eight because

108
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,839

275
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 2: these four little independent labels and we just so happened

276
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 2: to hook up with Unknown who had Techno Hop because

277
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 2: of being on the Compton compilation. So from there we

278
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 2: got to put out a little MAXI single called just

279
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 2: as Compton Little take that was going on the Swap

280
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 2: Meets and Ship you know, didn't have no major distribution,

281
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 2: but that's how we got put on because of those

282
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 2: two first little projects we had did with those two

283
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 2: independent labels. And that was, like you said, that was

284
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 2: before the inception of of all the greats that were

285
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 2: there to come from Compton, you know what I'm saying.

286
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 2: So we had our foot in the door when the

287
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 2: door first cracked open. For as far as gangster raptors concerned.

288
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was. I remember I was playing for Long

289
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: Beach City College football and homie Darryl Kemp brought me

290
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: one of those tapes and I said, Man, this nigga

291
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 1: can rapped like a motherfucker. I was an MC fan

292
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: from the like Gidea up Dog, and I didn't know

293
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: because you know, see him definitely that nigga Chill wasn't

294
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: on no motherfucking songs. All I knew was this nigger

295
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: right here. So I thought that was like an alias

296
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: or something. I guess he comped his most wanted when

297
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: he ain't eight, you know what I'm saying. That that's

298
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: his official title.

299
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 3: You know.

300
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: You know, a nigga might have had two or three

301
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 1: monikers back.

302
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 3: In the day.

303
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, the only Chill kept going in and out of jail.

304
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 2: So when we first got signed, we signed this COMPTS

305
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 2: Most Wanted. So they just decided to keep it, you

306
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, and give it a try. And

307
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 2: we were able to put out like three products under

308
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 2: Compass Most Wanted, but it seemed like every project Chill

309
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 2: would be going to jail. So uh, we ended up

310
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 2: just dropping the Compass Most Wanted and the label just

311
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 2: decided that we was going to start the m C

312
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:15,840

Speaker 3: It's pretty much the same story.

377
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 5: This started from like eighty two fifth grade for me

378
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 5: when I moved to the West side on Spruce Street,

379
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 5: the nine hundred block, so you know, seventh grade eighty three,

380
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 5: that's when I met Quick in high Sea.

381
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,400

00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 5: to do. It's like me releasing my first solo album.

560
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 5: It's still second or none. But I got tired of

561
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 5: people saying this and that. Yeah, it was a collective

562
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 5: me and quick. Most of those ideas are the records

563
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,959
Speaker 5: I bought, or that was my idea, or tapping your

564
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 5: feet while you're hitting. You know, everybody got amazed, and

565

00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 5: taking no credit away from Free. He popped that off first.

567
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 5: But we've been tapping. I was tapping on cans with

568
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 5: a pencil and the marker and the pins just to

569
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:10,959
Speaker 5: see the difference in the sound on the bottom of

570
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 5: a can and try to sample that sound back then

571
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,200

Speaker 5: all wrote our own lyrics and every whatever Quick's ideas

582
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 5: on his albums with his ideas second to Nun's ideas

583
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:56,680

Speaker 5: I bought the records for the sound was all the hits,

586
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 5: or it might have been an idea like me going,

587
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 5: now I need a bass player.

588
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:12,840

593
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 5: work on this baseline in my head to get it

594
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 5: to a real bass or somebody that could play the bass.

595
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 5: Back then standing the guitar man was so called man,

596
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 5: you know, but dreading them use them so I don't

597
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 5: want to do what somebody else did, to use what

598
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 5: they use it. I want to be creative and have

599
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 5: my own flavor style, you know what I mean. So

600
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 5: the distinctive, well, this is what they doing. I don't

601
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 5: want to do that, not so much being negative on

602
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,200

603
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,479
Speaker 5: you know, be unique. And that's how I guess what harmony.

604
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 5: I was always singing, me and my cousin. Did you

605
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,680

607
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 5: the seventies on up. Like I say, junior High, I'm

608
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 5: part of every choir. I didn't want to be all

609
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 5: the English teachers. Everybody heard me singing and in the

610
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 5: hallways put me in something, you know.

611
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 1: Let me let me ask you this KK when y'all

612
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 1: first did it? If you want it? Then God, did

613
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 1: you know that record was gonna be as big as

614
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 1: it was? Nah?

615
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 5: Because the idea we wasn't trying to make it. You know,

616
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 5: we didn't know. You know, we found out probably a

617
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 5: year later we were famous. You know, it was cool

618
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 5: because ten dollars thirty thirty taps in the box ten

619
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 5: dollars a tape three hundred late eighties. So the idea

620
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 5: even get in the record. There wasn't no mama, I

621
00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 5: never or even the fath in the idea to become famous,

622
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 5: cause in that sense being for Compton and you know

Speaker 5: I wish the world could have seen how we're talking

655
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 5: now thirty five some years ago, sort of open their

656
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 5: mind up back then to how a lot of people

657
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 5: put the jacket on us because of the red car.

658
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:01,959
Speaker 5: Wasn't a red card, it was the Burger de card.

659
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 5: We're from compter so, but we never promoted that. A

660
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 5: lot of people don't understand that. You know what I'm

661
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,280
Speaker 5: saying with the burg and me in the Red Side.

662
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 5: You know, it takes a lot of people to understand

663
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:17,719
Speaker 5: the uh, the foundation of what that shit is. So

664
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 5: people get it confused because all they hear is blood

665
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 5: and see red and whatever. They don't understand that kind

666
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 5: of a lot of content. Homies was po rules and shit.

667
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 2: So you know, you people have to know that history.

668
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,280
Speaker 3: You get me. That's like just being on the outside.

669
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,160
Speaker 3: Niggas ain't gonna understand that shit.

670
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:39,840
Speaker 5: You know, they gonna go niggas wore they they bloods

671
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,479
Speaker 5: or whatever, So you got to understand. And like I said,

672
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 5: when they go back to the foundation of hip hop,

673
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 5: you know, niggas didn't want to really go at that

674
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,240
Speaker 5: because we just want to be hip hop niggas.

675
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,720
Speaker 2: You feel me. We didn't want to push that side

676
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:58,760
Speaker 2: of what was representing shit. Niggas already knew. They knew

677
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 2: I exact niggas man, that's all hey, and.

678
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 3: Not to join us.

679
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,920
Speaker 5: But add to that, hence our first single, second and

680
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 5: now's first single, And it was like the sense of

681
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 5: paying homage to hip hop because we appreciated what hip

682
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,280
Speaker 5: hop did, but this is this.

683
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 3: Is who we are. And during that time in nineteen ninety,

684
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,799
Speaker 3: we were we were we were in New York, so we.

685
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 5: Got it first hand. Why y'all gang banking? You know,

686
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 5: I don't think Cube went through that. You know, we

687
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 5: had a different experience being in New York around the

688
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:34,760
Speaker 5: same time.

689
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:38,279
Speaker 3: Man, who was it?

690
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:38,480
Speaker 2: Uh?

691
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:43,719
Speaker 3: I'm trying to think of the group Stessisnic and the

692
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 3: drummer Bobby and Uh.

693
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 5: I still liked Daddyo Daddyo and the drummer Bobby from Stetisnic.

694
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 5: They interviewed us when we first got to New York,

695
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 5: took us around the streets. Why y'all killing each other

696
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 5: over colors and while y'all singing hooks over here hip hop?

697
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,839
Speaker 5: This nineteen ninety Daddy old and I said they still

698
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 5: got the HS tape of the interview we did and

699
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 5: grilling us. I don't think any you know, I heard

700
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 5: stories within w A and New York.

701
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 3: I heard.

702
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 5: I didn't hear too much about Q because he was

703
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 5: showing more affection and not saying no, no, no, negative way.

704
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 5: But they came at us hard, not quick second and none,

705
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,880
Speaker 5: especially you know with the dev John bid on this

706
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,239

Speaker 3: Profile well to run.

708
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,399
Speaker 5: DMC had a big part of that as well as

709
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 5: like l a dream team. I still mess around with

710

00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:59,400
Speaker 5: But I wish that the world could back then if

734
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,839
Speaker 5: we had to check answered with all these digital platforms

735
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 5: and whatnot, so everybody could have got the story straight,

736
00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 5: just about Compton, let alone West Coast.

737
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,919
Speaker 1: That dog were getting the stories out there. We're letting

738
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 1: it be, putting the reel out there in the universe.

739
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,680
Speaker 1: Don't worry, don't worry. Put the whole ship down for real. Hey,

740
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:20,799
Speaker 1: you know what, let me ask you man, because you

741
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 1: kind of got away from it that the Death Jam

742
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: was a ship. I think every rep and everything.

743
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,840
Speaker 3: Okay, why we didn't do with that jam?

744
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 5: The reason why because it was so much history relative

745
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 5: to duos being the duo, you know, and I was

746
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 5: basically using the two for second none and my cousin

747
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 5: you know the other the other. Yeah, so the duos

748
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,720
Speaker 5: mixed Spain Toddy T was at the top of the list,

749
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 5: you know. Then after that it was you know who

750
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 5: dn E run DMC. You know it just fit. Okay,

751
00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 5: how do we blend in with not sounding like them?

752
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 5: My voice sounded different, you know, I was already aggressive voice.

753
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,360
Speaker 5: I didn't want to be DMC. I'm kk so you know,

754
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,439
Speaker 5: but I'm from the West Coast, so I ain't gonna

755
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 5: sound like him. He is not like running, you know

756
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 5: what I'm saying. But in the similar sense, we're the

757
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 5: West Coast run DMC and this but uh deaf Jam

758
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 5: and the profile and the meeting running DMC basically Jame

759
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 5: Master j and DMC, you know, and being in New

760
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,360
Speaker 5: York and being schooled in nineties.

761
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,239
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Man, you said it was

762
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 1: you said it was a bit. War was the.

763
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 5: Shaping damn profile. Lee or Russell came up, Greedy Greg

764
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 5: you already know. Uh during the time before a quick

765
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 5: and selected profile records that did in war so to speak,

766
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 5: Death Jam got a hold of the tape. I guess

767
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,160
Speaker 5: they thought it was quick, but it was second and none.

768
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 5: So when uh the music fest, uh they that was

769

00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:19,400
Speaker 3: The whole world got to see us.

779
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,319
Speaker 5: We already knew battle Cat, you know, from the history

780
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 5: from eighty ninety ninety being off Crenshaw seventy six, a

781
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 5: greedy Greds. So we already knew a few cats from

782
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 5: that side of Crenshaw in that era, from being a

783
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 5: Hongky Harrow's you on Crenshawn influence at the car wash

784
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 5: at the Foxhills. My also second and none was already

785
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 5: I'm not stopping going to Hongky Harrows.

786
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 3: I don't care.

787
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 5: I'm spending black money over here, you know. So that's

788
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 5: nineteen ninety eighty nine, oh Man Schloss swap meet. We

789
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 5: had a ball, but not being chesty, and you know,

790
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 5: and that's the blessing to still be alive thirty plus

791
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,760
Speaker 5: years later. You know, I'm gonna stand up for something,

792
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:02,160
Speaker 5: but I ain't gonna be too chasty where things get messy,

793
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:03,399
Speaker 5: you know what I mean.

794
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 1: I gotta ask you this man, and I ain't gonna

795
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 1: go too much into the whole other stuff about nobody else, right,

796
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,600
Speaker 1: but with the time, man to where it seemed like

797
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: the crew just kind of went on Paus Like when

798
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 1: when Quick start having this little situation with you know,

799
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,480
Speaker 1: the record label or whatever, pretty much add him on

800
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:27,359
Speaker 1: Pauls for making music. I just always felt like, man,

801
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 1: that whole crew could have probably just been so much

802
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: bigger man than what it was because it was so

803
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 1: much heat. You gotta think about it. You had, y'all,

804
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 1: it was highest seating, sugar free Quick. Why do you

805
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:49,879
Speaker 1: think NMG came later though? Yeah, Free came much later.

806
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 5: Just saying Quick second or none and AMG even though

807
00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:00,760
Speaker 5: Cross was around. But that's the majority of the world

808
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,680
Speaker 5: viewed it. And that was the homie as well. You know,

809
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 5: it was a crew. They kept trying to throw tighters

810
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:09,439
Speaker 5: on us after in w A the Comps City Crew

811
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 5: and all his names that kept trying to throw on us.

812
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,480
Speaker 5: I'm like, look, we just grew up together, three of us,

813
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:18,680
Speaker 5: four of us grew up together, two of us cousins

814
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 5: from eighty three. We all grew up together junior in

815
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 5: high school related around music. There's been plenty times, man,

816
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:31,840
Speaker 5: just like you say, there's been situations or some of

817
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:37,080
Speaker 5: these major prominent big labels. We probably had the same deals,

818
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:41,920
Speaker 5: not probably but to be like that label or had

819
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 5: the positions. But at that time some minds wasn't grown enough,

820
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:47,760
Speaker 5: you know. And I'm not saying no names of nobody,

821
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 5: but we all were kids. So not making the best

822
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 5: decision for business wise, being so young and coming from

823
00:43:55,800 --> 00:44:00,200
Speaker 5: that world, not understanding the business aspect of things back then,

824
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:04,800
Speaker 5: being like you said, seventeen eighteen and going into eighteen

825
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,719
Speaker 5: and nineteen, you know what I mean. So I still

826
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 5: got all the contracts right right over here, all my

827
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:15,160
Speaker 5: crazy right there. I stayed with him. I'm a paper man.

828
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 5: But yeah, man, that wow, it's a lot dog. But

829
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 5: the decision to go to profile answering that question, getting

830
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:29,239
Speaker 5: back to that instead of death jam, a death John

831
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 5: wouldn't let go run DMC and getting this information and

832
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 5: knowledge because they never wasn't no death jam. A lot

833
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,840
Speaker 5: of people didn't know that. That was just rush management

834
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 5: and wasn't not right right, But then Steve plot Nick

835
00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,160
Speaker 5: and Court Robbins' profile, they wouldn't let run DMC go.

836
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,840

909
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,520
Speaker 5: nothing to take nothing to take away from nobody else,

910
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,839
Speaker 5: shign and nothing that was never the concept just like

911
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 5: a hip hop and going back to our first single,

912
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,800
Speaker 5: be true to yourself pyanomos to those that came before

913
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,640
Speaker 5: us or a craft or you know what they call culture.

914
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:55,759
Speaker 5: It was just life at the time before yours and

915
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 5: now it's yours. And you find yourself in that aspect

916
00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:01,359
Speaker 5: of life, you know, and build on it, you know.

917
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 5: So that was my mindset from Junior High, Elementary. Everybody

918
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:10,920
Speaker 5: know me and Compton, you know everybody. You know, it

919
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:12,839
Speaker 5: ain't about me, like I said, But I ain't never

920
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,760
Speaker 5: changed except for a couple of grades and a little

921
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 5: taller and heavier. I'm still the same from elementary and

922
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 5: if you know me, you can you know. Everybody know this.

923
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 5: So they say, all the other famous people from Compton

924
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,680
Speaker 5: and all the famous three people, I ain't never changed.

925
00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:33,399
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, man, let me ask you something, man,

926
00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 1: and I gotta ask you this dog. You know, the

927
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,520

00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:51,720
Speaker 5: how I was, what was used. It sounded like a snare.

990
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:55,080
Speaker 5: I was goting to creating sounds of me and Quick,

991
00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,680

995
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:09,800

998
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:18,759
Speaker 5: So you know, the door is open. He gotta taste

999
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:21,400
Speaker 5: the wild world because Quick was already over there. We

1000
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:23,560
Speaker 5: came second, but he gotta taste the KK and D

1001
00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:26,760
Speaker 5: or second to none, and you know the rest is history.

1002
00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:30,440

Speaker 1: just spread over everybody.

1051
00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:02,279
Speaker 5: It took over the wall storm because Quick promoted the

00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:56,600
Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying, man, it was already it was.

1090
00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:57,080
Speaker 4: It was a.

1091
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:02,040
Speaker 5: That little stint with Q and that man. They ain't

1092
00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:04,840
Speaker 5: had nothing to do with us. Man, we ain't on

1093
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:06,479
Speaker 5: that funny stuff. You know what I'm saying.

1094
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:07,560
Speaker 1: I know we.

1095
00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:12,440
Speaker 2: Sometimes it be the peer pressures of niggas around you

1096
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:14,720
Speaker 2: and just trying to live up to you know what

1097
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:17,919
Speaker 2: you're supposed to be representing. Man, you know that shit

1098
00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:20,280
Speaker 2: caught a lot of us at a young ages. We

1099
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:23,440
Speaker 2: didn't know. Like I told, like I always tell niggas, Uh,

1100
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,640
Speaker 2: the shit was dumb to me because it prevents niggas

1101
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 2: from all trying to enjoy the successful times and hip hop.

1102
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:32,440
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. Now, you got to give

1103
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:34,760
Speaker 2: niggas choices of what they want to buy and shit.

1104
00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:36,840
Speaker 2: And I want niggas to buy at all, not me.

1105
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:38,920
Speaker 2: I want niggas to buy quick. I want niggas to

1106
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:41,240
Speaker 2: buy my shit. I want niggas to buy every nigga

1107
00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:45,760
Speaker 2: that's representing content. And when you drawing the lines and shit,

1108
00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:48,400
Speaker 2: you give niggas choices. And now they got to take

1109
00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:51,880
Speaker 2: a side and pick. So it was always dumb, you know,

1110
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:55,240
Speaker 2: for us to be beefing within our own section and shit,

1111
00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:58,680
Speaker 2: because we all just wanted to represent the Hub City.

1112
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:01,400
Speaker 2: You feel me and let niggas know that was the

1113
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,600
Speaker 2: best place that you could be in. You feel me,

1114
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:09,240
Speaker 2: And that was my message around the motherfucking world was Nigga,

1115
00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:11,800
Speaker 2: ain't no place better than condo. Whether you got me,

1116
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,960
Speaker 2: whether you got quick second or none, conscience most wanted,

1117
00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:18,480
Speaker 2: whether you got king t, whether you got any nigga.

1118
00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 2: That's talking about the Hub City nigga too. It's a blessing,

1119
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:25,880
Speaker 2: you feel medave man, if.

1120
00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:27,680
Speaker 1: You already got to make some records, what kind of

1121
00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:29,880
Speaker 1: banging ass cracking ass records then would have been.

1122
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:34,720
Speaker 5: We're still here, we all still got our voices and

1123
00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:37,080
Speaker 5: now we have better life. Like I say, back then,

1124
00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 5: imagine them seeing me in Tupac together a MC breathe

1125
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:44,600
Speaker 5: and had the chance to look at three of us

1126
00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:47,880
Speaker 5: and lay long like how we looking the world is

1127
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:51,640
Speaker 5: looking at us now and have the decent conversation as

1128
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:54,800
Speaker 5: grown men. We didn't have that light back then, or

1129
00:59:55,400 --> 01:00:00,080
Speaker 5: too much to share content and communications, you know, I

1130
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:03,920
Speaker 5: mean so uh definitely a blessing to even be talking

1169
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:49,600
Speaker 5: You know, I could do that very well, but that's

1170
01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:52,360
Speaker 5: not the point. That's why like our first single, don't

1171

01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:10,160
Speaker 3: because we ain't really had a voice, uh you know,

1178
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:14,800
Speaker 3: but it'll come. Uh my man, damn you know.

01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:42,120
Speaker 5: their peers might be an equal.

1188
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:44,640
