Speaker 1: whole life ended up coming out. You're obviously you're in
Speaker 1: the music video. It's a moment the HS eighty seven
Speaker 1: album comes out. Were you able to kind of like
Speaker 1: see like the g Unit remix of that song and
Speaker 1: all that stuff when you were out or did that
Speaker 1: all happen? Like? What? What? What? At what point in time?

Speaker 2: York and we heard it, We heard him, were like
Speaker 2: what the fuck, Like my nigga, you need to holler
Speaker 2: at you.

Speaker 1: don't know, the last time he was on the show,
Speaker 1: he had a dinosaur mask on. We're gonna have to
Speaker 1: cut to that. Don't forget his iPad. iPad is a must. Sure, no,
Speaker 1: but I think a lot of a lot of people
Speaker 1: who weren't hip to what y'all were doing assumed that
Speaker 1: was like a G unit record. That was wild. That
Speaker 1: was wild.
Speaker 3: Like I remember we we was in New York, like
Speaker 3: you said, we landed, we heard that joint and we
Speaker 3: actually pulled up on fifty and chopped it with him
Speaker 3: that day, and the nigga was like showing love, like
Speaker 3: he was breaking down niggas versus knew who everybody was
Speaker 3: on the song. I had the whole squad out there
Speaker 3: in New York, you know what I mean. So you
Speaker 3: know what I mean. But then it kind of just
Speaker 3: like fast forward just kind of was like niggas they
Speaker 3: low key just snatched the swag up.
Speaker 1: They didn't for sure.
Speaker 3: That's one of my favorite I mean I was like
Speaker 3: the last uh, you know time niggas took g Unit series.
Speaker 1: Was like all Norse swags. So that's actually not too
Speaker 1: far from the truth in terms of a group living.
Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody.
Speaker 3: Else literally is the truth. That was the last moment
Speaker 3: they had, you know what I mean, because they had.

Speaker 1: might tap somebody. You know what I'm saying? You know?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Nah, it's shit. Niggas just trying to rob me,
Speaker 2: you feel me. I'm coming from a humble county with
Speaker 2: like one hundred pounds a tree and niggas on we
Speaker 2: hitting red lights, running, niggas shooting all kinds of shit,
Speaker 2: and we crashed and jumped out and ran, but the
Speaker 2: other people got hurt. So they were saying that, you know,
Speaker 2: basically the whole argument was saying that I should have
Speaker 2: stopped and assisted the people in the car who were
Speaker 2: trying to rob you. There was no no, the other
Speaker 2: the other people got you know what I'm saying, somebody's
Speaker 2: trying to pull over, but we clipped them in the
Speaker 2: back and they flipped over and got hurt.
Speaker 1: So so and so. So it's because because people don't
Speaker 1: know Humble County is like a wild place, like yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like it's like Narco's in the forest out there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that too, but it's a lawless lamb. They gets short.
Speaker 2: It's off the map. You got a lot of spots
Speaker 2: that's eving off the grid. You don't. You can't even
Speaker 2: google them, you know, they just word of mouth. You
Speaker 2: can't live in that community unless you grow on trees
Speaker 2: and all kinds of ship like you're not welcome.
Speaker 1: No, for sure. We had Burner on the show and
Speaker 1: he told us the story he had to go up
Speaker 1: a mountain to pick up like I think it was
Speaker 1: like a box, like one hundred pounds or something. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and he was he was afraid. Uh yeah, essentially some
Speaker 1: similar kind of had happened. Yeah, he was just explaining
Speaker 1: how crazy it is up there. It's like they got
Speaker 1: their own just.
Speaker 3: Telling me how you was like you had didn't know nobody.
Speaker 3: You was like talking to the homeless people.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2: When I got out, I was hearing about Humble County.
Speaker 2: You know, he's always buying that messking with compressed brown
Speaker 2: ship and that cush came about, Like fuck it, I
Speaker 2: gotta go up here. I just went up there with
Speaker 2: a pocket full of money, hanging out with the bums
Speaker 2: and you know, the homeless people and ship, and.
Speaker 1: They put you in the right direction away.
Speaker 2: They was the man, this ship, the homeless people was
Speaker 2: the demand.

Speaker 2: with them. We're just going out hanging out, just you know,
Speaker 2: they was hungry. Ship buying a fool. Like everything they wanted.
Speaker 2: I was boring. Oh fuck, I gotta get some fun.

Speaker 1: it might have.
Speaker 2: Talked about this last eight nine years. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

Speaker 1: But how crazy is it now? Because like now you're
Speaker 1: out and this ship is like really just like yeah.
Speaker 2: The game is messed up. You can't really make no
Speaker 2: money off of it. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: This is fucked up, especially yeah, because i you know,
Speaker 1: they're so with these dispensaries and the taxes and like
Speaker 1: it's just wild though, because like we just did this
Speaker 1: event called His Olympics with Gucci, Maine and Burner and
Speaker 1: that shit was like it's like the Weed Olympics just
Speaker 1: in the middle of downtown. Oh yeah, like ten years Yeah,
Speaker 1: like ten years ago. If you would have told me,
Speaker 1: I'd be like hanging out in downtown LA and just
Speaker 1: there's just an open drug market and there's police at

Speaker 2: Get that main strain where they don't nobody have it
Speaker 2: and try to keep that strain and boom right.
Speaker 1: Yo, getting out after eight or nine years, sitting down
Speaker 1: obviously you have TV, you have some sort of awareness
Speaker 1: what's going on. But what was like the one thing
Speaker 1: once you're out and free that you saw that you
Speaker 1: were like, oh this is different, Like was it like
Speaker 1: a tesla?
Speaker 2: Was it like uh ship?
Speaker 1: Because teslas weren't popping when you went in there, weren't
Speaker 1: these electric cars? You know what?
Speaker 2: I'm saying, yeah, I'm not really impressed, but I don't
Speaker 2: know why. But ship, uh, I can't really think nothing off.
Speaker 1: Were you surprised by how many homeless people were set
Speaker 1: up in tents in l A? Nah?

Speaker 1: considered Hell no, because everybody's got a phone in jail.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah. If you if you got the bread, you
Speaker 2: can get it money talk bullshit?
Speaker 1: Well, because the CEO don't care, right, you know what

Speaker 1: So yeah, okay, so the new album is out. You're
Speaker 1: on ninety nine percent of the album, right is this?
Speaker 1: What is it? Because because the last time we talked
Speaker 1: to you, I think you did a distro deal with
Speaker 1: that with the company and the death yan Vard Street. Yeah,
Speaker 1: are you still with them? Yeah? I put that out.
Speaker 3: I put it out through VERIIC and it's just like
Speaker 3: being with VERIIC, it just allowed me to drop music.
Speaker 1: How and when I'm reading to you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: If I was on a major with my rap stuff,
Speaker 3: then it would be like, you know, it'll take three
Speaker 3: months to get one song out. So now it's like
Speaker 3: I got two albums out in three months, and you
Speaker 3: know what I mean, I'm just building my fan base up.

Speaker 3: like somebody you like really believe is on that, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean?
Speaker 1: One hundred percent, Nah, for sure. And even just like
Speaker 1: the beats, like the flow, like it's not you know
Speaker 1: we I mean, you know we're in LA. We've been
Speaker 1: listening to the same dudes wrapping the same way for
Speaker 1: like the last five or six years. Everybody some sort
Speaker 1: of Draco shoreline clone. You know what, I'm not doing

Speaker 2: I'm saying, biz Markie like rest in peace, Yeah, Uncle
Speaker 2: Jim's army man. It's all the old schools.
Speaker 1: It's crazy too because like even just hip hop has
Speaker 1: changed so much in nine years, right, Like there's so
Speaker 1: much like there's good ship about it because I feel
Speaker 1: like there's not a lot of gatekeepers now, like you
Speaker 1: could just upload ship on your own and go straight
Speaker 1: to the people, like like you were saying, like when
Speaker 1: y'all were with HS eighty seven and the Henderscope situation,
Speaker 1: it's an uphill battle to do anything right anything. But
Speaker 1: also there's a lot more bullshit, but like it's kind
Speaker 1: of crazy, like he's fine, they ain't picking up on them.
Speaker 1: He's fine. Yeah, it's fine, he's fine. But I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, for you, like being a real dude who
Speaker 1: comes out and you kind of see like there's all
Speaker 1: these artists who are kind of like I feel like
Speaker 1: the snitching thing is like widely accepted in hip hop now,
Speaker 1: and like there's so much like not real shit, like
Speaker 1: you know, like that's why I said you're feeling a void,
Speaker 1: because there's definitely like a void for like real authentic
Speaker 1: street la shit that sound that doesn't sound like I
Speaker 1: guess what we're used to like. But for you, like,
Speaker 1: do you did you feel that when you came out,
Speaker 1: like when you start kind of seeing some of the
Speaker 1: shit that's going on in hip hop or you're like, man,
Speaker 1: this shit is kind of turned into some weirdo shit or.
Speaker 2: Nah, I don't even listen to people's shit.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 2: I kind of was isolated, like in the show type
Speaker 2: I always isolate myself, and I just know, tell my story, man,

Speaker 3: Thirty years of your life and that joint is that's
Speaker 3: that's that's a different level.
Speaker 1: It's important too to like, you know, I think a
Speaker 1: lot of people who are incarcerated feel like when they
Speaker 1: do that kind of time, they think their life's over.
Speaker 2: And yeah again garantee you it's.
Speaker 1: I think it's dope though that you can show an
Speaker 1: example that, like, you know, if you're sitting down doing time,

Speaker 1: let's get back to the interview. I was gonna say
Speaker 1: hit for you. Uh, it's been it's been a crazy
Speaker 1: last three or four years in terms of just like
Speaker 1: some of the moments that you've had. Obviously, it's been
Speaker 1: a crazy last like twelve years for you. But what's
Speaker 1: up is, uh is the is the King's Disease series over?
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't ever say that.
Speaker 3: Me and Nas, we study work and we you know,
Speaker 3: we definitely got new music, you know, we I don't
Speaker 3: know exactly which way it is gonna go, you know,
Speaker 3: that's Nas and he do what he do. But you know,
Speaker 3: when it's time, I'm just gonna be available. But I
Speaker 3: can't say it's over, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, how many artists have hit you
Speaker 1: to kind of try to do the same thing, because
Speaker 1: it'd be a nice it'd be a nice premium to
Speaker 1: have a homely produced hipway album.
Speaker 3: Definitely a few, you know what I mean, Like I
Speaker 3: did the Bennie album. I did a couple of different joints,
Speaker 3: but I mean me and Nas we got a different level,
Speaker 3: just a different level of a personal, you know, relationship.
Speaker 1: Like it's just like we that should just be working.
Speaker 1: We getting there.
Speaker 3: Sometimes I get in with an artists and it just
Speaker 3: don't get nothing. With Nas, we always gonna get at
Speaker 3: least a verse a hook, something done, like when you
Speaker 3: pull up. So that's just the ill shit. So we
Speaker 3: were always just making music.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say. I always go back and forth
Speaker 1: between whether like Magic or King's Disease three the most
Speaker 1: out of your guys' bodies of work, that's that's. I
Speaker 1: hear that all the time. Most I'm a magic person exactly,
Speaker 1: mostly be Magic. And it's crazy because Magic is the
Speaker 1: one record that we just woke up one day and
Speaker 1: it was just like, what the fuck? Man exactly, but
Speaker 1: what's your favorite?
Speaker 3: I mean, Katie three Man, I like all of them, bro,
Speaker 3: I can't lie like I got special moments that I
Speaker 3: just like, feel super connected to them every album.
Speaker 1: But I feel like it's progressively I like each project somehow,
Speaker 1: like it just kept getting better.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's I mean, you know, I feel like we
Speaker 3: just jelling, start jelling more, like I start getting more
Speaker 3: into my just history of NAS music.
Speaker 1: I'm from the.
Speaker 3: West Coast, so it's like I did and only grew
Speaker 3: up here in the NAS hits that was on the radio.
Speaker 3: My family super West Coast, so they wasn't playing nads
Speaker 3: like that, you know what I mean. So I know
Speaker 3: I had some friends, so they family might have played knas,
Speaker 3: but just as far as my circle, it wasn't, you know,
Speaker 3: something that was embedded in me the way like certain
Speaker 3: West Coast music would be like Snoop Dogg music or something.
Speaker 3: So I had to really learn and really study them
Speaker 3: albums and really be like, Okay, this is what people
Speaker 3: like from him.
Speaker 1: Let me take this and just mix it with what
Speaker 1: I do. Yeah, I was gonna say you guys, you
Speaker 1: and Alchemists put out the incredible freestyle that went viral
Speaker 1: or rapping over each other's beats, which I thought was genius.
Speaker 1: I also think we don't get enough Alchemists rapping these days.
Speaker 1: We need a new step brothers out by the while.
Speaker 1: But would you guys do a whole project like that? Bro,
Speaker 1: we already got one. We already got well.
Speaker 3: Bro, we got like all slipping in the darkness level
Speaker 3: like joints, like you know it's gonna happen when it happened.
Speaker 1: But it's just you guys are both rapping.
Speaker 3: Yeah, were stacking him up, like I seeing him beats
Speaker 3: and send me beats and we'll just go in send
Speaker 3: them back. When you do a verse, you do a
Speaker 3: hook like we It's just it's ill, like we're giving
Speaker 3: each other direction just through sending joints over and just
Speaker 3: like you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Do you guys like I wonder how that works because
Speaker 1: like obviously you guys are both all time great producers.
Speaker 1: Is it do you guys collaborate on the beats together?
Speaker 2: Is it? Like?
Speaker 1: Yo, this is a photo of shit. I got this
Speaker 1: a pholdo of shit you got. Let's pick which ones
Speaker 1: we like and then or is it like, hey, yeah
Speaker 1: you have a loop, He's got a loop. We honestly
Speaker 1: is so new of a process that we we haven't
Speaker 1: even got to cook together yet. It's just been sending
Speaker 1: shit back and forth.
Speaker 3: But we got we got a nice slow amount of
Speaker 3: joints already just off that.
Speaker 1: So I kind of feel like you what you did
Speaker 1: with that was like the what Kendrick did with the
Speaker 1: control the control record.
Speaker 3: That was my exact sentiment, you know, wanted to challenge
Speaker 3: the game and had some fun and raise some questions.
Speaker 3: That's never like I never said niggas was whack. No
Speaker 3: other than one person, Yeah, yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: But it's like I never said the rest of them
Speaker 3: dudes was whack. I just was like, Kim do do this.
Speaker 3: I've never seen him do this, you know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 3: that's that's all it was putting in put it in
Speaker 3: context and an artistic Did.
Speaker 1: You and hit Maker ever have a combo after your
Speaker 1: guys is online? Back and forth? Nah? I just assumed
Speaker 1: it was like it was like nice promotion for everybody, right, No,
Speaker 1: that was great man, for sure. That was how I
Speaker 1: think I think you hit it on the head because like,
Speaker 1: who did I have? I had Eric Bellinger here and
Speaker 1: we're talking about like the difference between you guys like
Speaker 1: Rick Rubin doesn't make beats, did you?
Speaker 3: Like obviously you mean, I feel like I'm sure he
Speaker 3: made some of them. Classes Rick Rubin says he doesn't
Speaker 3: know how to do anything. He's there for his taste.
Speaker 3: I don't believe it. I think that's the older Rick Rubin.
Speaker 3: I know he was in there cooking something which I
Speaker 3: don't know.
Speaker 1: He said that he doesn't make any beats. He's there
Speaker 1: for his taste, and I feel like, I mean, that's
Speaker 1: like kind of the lame hitmakers. And it's like you
Speaker 1: bring hit making because he's got a ear, he's got
Speaker 1: the writers, and then you you got it all. You
Speaker 1: could take the NPC out and you could you know,
Speaker 1: there's nothing you can't touch, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: We're gonna leave it at that. Yeah, Jesus, I just
Speaker 1: saw did in Paris just have a new certification? It
Speaker 1: just went diamond. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Crazy, And it's crazy because you know that was like
Speaker 3: a few years before the streaming are so that was
Speaker 3: like people really buying that song.
Speaker 1: That's that's like the difference in the game now.
Speaker 3: Like I just feel like it was like a little
Speaker 3: more urned back in the day. Like I just seen
Speaker 3: Ice Spice. How long she been out less than years.
Speaker 3: She got a billion streams. Like I'm like, I gave
Speaker 3: it a wild place.
Speaker 1: I think she's out streaming like almost everybody except like
Speaker 1: Bad Bunny and Drake Ma.
Speaker 3: That's that's that's incredible. You know, whatever she did in
Speaker 3: her life to get that blessing for sure. But you know,
Speaker 3: just music wise, it's like, wow, this is the era
Speaker 3: we end. You know, you gotta accept it. I guess.
Speaker 1: I remember at your old house in your studio, you
Speaker 1: had like you had the Grammy and then you had
Speaker 1: there was like a Michael Jordan photo or something, and
Speaker 1: then there was like the canvas of like when Jay
Speaker 1: and Kanye I think they were doing in Paris. That
Speaker 1: was that was there. Yeah, it's crazy to think like
Speaker 1: how much that record like kind of changed the trajectory
Speaker 1: of like just hit Boy. Like I remember during that time,
Speaker 1: there was like you were you were like one of
Speaker 1: the young producers around good music. My guy lifted from
Speaker 1: Phoenix and did Mercy, and I remember he was just
Speaker 1: telling me all these stories about like being in hotel
Speaker 1: rooms like back to back to back with like yourself, everybody.
Speaker 1: Everybody was like, what's like one of the craziest like
Speaker 1: stories you could tell about, like just those days like
Speaker 1: working with Yay, working with the good guys.
Speaker 3: It's a lot man. Definitely like that trip I'm sure
Speaker 3: Lifted is talking about. We all went to London one
Speaker 3: time and everybody was there. Sean pushed two chains, you know,
Speaker 3: obviously just being locked in. I remember it was so
Speaker 3: crowded in the one of the hotel rooms and everybody
Speaker 3: came in because they was working on it was either
Speaker 3: Click or Mercy, one of the two. And like Sean
Speaker 3: was sitting on the floor with a mic like this,
Speaker 3: like recording a hook for one of them joints, and
Speaker 3: I just I'll never forget that. Craig a was right here,
Speaker 3: Chains was in, everybody was in there, just a room
Speaker 3: full of people and they was getting it done by
Speaker 3: any means, like right there.
Speaker 1: Obviously you and Kanye kind of had what I wouldn't
Speaker 1: say falling out, but it definitely not the greatest times
Speaker 1: in terms of your guys relationship. Is there any relationship
Speaker 1: at all these days?
Speaker 3: I mean, I haven't talked to him since we did
Speaker 3: the Easy joint with Game Like, but I ain't got
Speaker 3: no issues with him.
Speaker 1: My uh.
Speaker 3: I heard that because I just worked on I don't
Speaker 3: want to say who project, but I worked on somebody project.
Speaker 3: I heard they played him a song like this is
Speaker 3: just a few days ago. Somebody text me like, yo,
Speaker 3: bro play yeah a song and he was like, Yo,
Speaker 3: we need hit boy to pull up.
Speaker 1: So you know, you know he's hey. I heard he's
Speaker 1: cooking right now. Yeah, I heard that too. I heard
Speaker 1: he is in the studio. I heard. So I'm with
Speaker 1: it man for sure. Yeah. I ain't got no isshoes. Yeah, nobody.
Speaker 1: Freddy's working with it right now. There's a lot of
Speaker 1: a scene I heard about the Yeah, a lot of Kanye.
Speaker 1: He's got shoulder pads, you know what I'm saying, and
Speaker 1: no shoes, no shoes, he wearing the socks. It's kind
Speaker 1: of crazy, man, if anybody I don't even question it though, boy,
Speaker 1: because I remember when when the early Yay shit the clothing,
Speaker 1: I was like, no one's gonna wear that, shah. Look man,
Speaker 1: we might all be in shoulder pads in like six months,
Speaker 1: you know, that's funny. I don't know if I could
Speaker 1: take it there, but I feel would you and Benny
Speaker 1: do a sequel to the album that you guys did together?
Speaker 3: We he announced that me and I is doing his
Speaker 3: album together like I got. You know, we've done probably
Speaker 3: like fifteen sixteen new songs.
Speaker 1: I don't know how many he goes at the Death
Speaker 1: M debut.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I don't know how many he gonna pick
Speaker 3: out the batch. But he got some joints with Alchemists,
Speaker 3: some joints with me. I know he got a couple
Speaker 3: other producers in the mix too, but predominantly is supposed
Speaker 3: to be you, Me and Alchemists, and that's supposed to
Speaker 3: come August eleventh or twelve.
Speaker 1: Something like that. It's crazy, you know who I want
Speaker 1: to see you work more with because I feel like
Speaker 1: some of the best records that were on his best album,
Speaker 1: from King to a Goddess Conway and you had your
Speaker 1: that was during that kind of same era that you
Speaker 1: were working with Benny. I remember being in some of
Speaker 1: those sessions. What's up? Would would you? Would you work
Speaker 1: with Conway again? Of course was nice.
Speaker 3: I'll be I mean, I'll be down to work or
Speaker 3: whoever I want to lock in with me. Everybody be
Speaker 3: in their own pocket, they on his own. But when
Speaker 3: I crossed paths, I'm gonna definitely I can give whoever
Speaker 3: some ship.
Speaker 1: You know. That's how I feel, you know, Pops, I'm
Speaker 1: curious when you're incarcerated, you know your son's out here
Speaker 1: doing this fucking thing. Where are you at? You remember
Speaker 1: where you were at when you find out he won
Speaker 1: a Grammy for Hour of the Year, hip Hop Out
Speaker 1: of the Year because he had already had, you know,
Speaker 1: brand a grand you know. But I'm saying, like, I
Speaker 1: feel like this one was different.
Speaker 2: Which one the King's disease one? Shit, No, I didn't
Speaker 2: even know.
Speaker 1: For real.
Speaker 2: It was probably in the all at that time. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I was. I think I didn't have a phone at
Speaker 2: the time. I wasn't tapped in.
Speaker 1: Yeah I was in.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was in the hole. Yeah, it was a
Speaker 2: little spurt off was in the hole. But yeah, when

Speaker 3: my cousin. I was like, damn, this nig used to
Speaker 3: direct like big time pornos, like he had did some
Speaker 3: shit and he used to buy beats for me. Hes
Speaker 3: give me like a thousand dollars. I'm like eighteen making

Speaker 3: two years at that point, and he started cashing me
Speaker 3: out for beats.
Speaker 1: He was doing it on a real level, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean.
Speaker 3: So I just thought about that pinky scene and oh wait,
Speaker 3: so you have a beat playing one of your beats

Speaker 1: me bought it because Snoop was on the car. It worked.

Speaker 1: rappers have done that, I think.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny though, because hip Hop d X. They
Speaker 3: made a post and made it seem like I was
Speaker 3: actually in the porno. So I had to repost it
Speaker 3: and let niggas know, like, nah, they took my ship
Speaker 3: and put it in a whole different context.
Speaker 1: But it is what it is. It was funny though, Hey,
