I was on top of things, Like 735 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 2: I told Snoop and I told everybody that was at 736 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 2: therethro get lawyers, right, you know, don't just sign any 737 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 2: of these contracts. Get lawyers. So I guess that upset 738 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,759 Speaker 2: should and he got pissed off about it. So that's 739 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 2: probably the main reason why, you know, I didn't get 740 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 2: signed over there, cause I was just as talented as 741 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:39,760 Speaker 2: everybody else, you know, production wise, artists wise, uh rapping wise, 742 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 2: even on the DJ right level, I was equal to everybody. 743 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 2: So it was it was it was pretty crushing to 744 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 2: to not be able to to be with my best friend, 745 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 2: uh be with my brother, which is un was like 746 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 2: a best friend as well, but a big brother. 747 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 4: I had to do my own thing, man. 748 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 2: And when I knew that I had to go, when 749 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 2: I didn't didn't, when when I wasn't able to go 750 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 2: on tour, when I was like, you know what, I'm cool, I. 751 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 1: Gotta they didn't take they didn't take you on tour. 752 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 4: No, I didn't go. 753 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 2: You want you wanted to go?

And to me, 1218 01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:01,840 Speaker 2: that's unfair for like a guy like myself because I 1219 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:06,920 Speaker 2: helped this company that's under this umbrella become a billion 1220 01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:08,480 Speaker 2: dollar business here and. 1221 01:08:08,560 --> 01:08:10,160 Speaker 4: All I'm asking for is my master. 1222 01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:10,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1223 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:12,160 Speaker 1: They you you feel like they should have gave you 1224 01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:14,200 Speaker 1: those things back ten fifteen years ago. 1225 01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:17,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, cause I mean reward me, right, you know, 1226 01:08:17,280 --> 01:08:21,040 Speaker 2: I I did my part, you know, just reward it back, 1227 01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:21,320 Speaker 2: you know. 1228 01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:24,200 Speaker 4: But you know, I'm I'm working on getting him back. 1229 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:27,760 Speaker 2: It's supposed to come anyway, So I'm working on it. 1230 01:08:28,400 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 1: Try to feed the process up. 1231 01:08:29,880 --> 01:08:33,200 Speaker 2: I yeah, I'm I was like, I want him now, uh, yesterday. 1232 01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:35,600 Speaker 2: I don't wanna wait, not right, Yeah, So I I 1233 01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:39,080 Speaker 2: reached out a few times and it was like no, Wow. 1234 01:08:39,120 --> 01:08:40,920 Speaker 2: I'm like, damn, let me. 1235 01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:42,640 Speaker 1: Ask you this. And and I've heard a lot of 1236 01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:47,960 Speaker 1: you know, when you look at Michael Michael Jackson Thriller, 1237 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:52,040 Speaker 1: I don't believe in my lifetime there'll never be an 1238 01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:54,040 Speaker 1: album or a song. 1239 01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:54,759 Speaker 2: Bigger than Thriller. 1240 01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:58,439 Speaker 1: Never when you look at it, and it says that 1241 01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:01,200 Speaker 1: he became obsessed because he was trying to replicate that, 1242 01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:05,240 Speaker 1: even though if you for me, as far as musically, 1243 01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:09,599 Speaker 1: Off the Wall was his best work. Now, Thriller was great, 1244 01:09:11,200 --> 01:09:15,719 Speaker 1: Dirty Bad was great, and he had others that were great, 1245 01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:17,760 Speaker 1: but Off the Wall for me, was his best, was 1246 01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:21,240 Speaker 1: his best work. But he wanted to do Thriller. He 1247 01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:25,160 Speaker 1: didn't understand that was a once in a lifetime. It's 1248 01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:28,000 Speaker 1: like somebody in baseball throwing a perfect game. Nobody's ever 1249 01:09:28,080 --> 01:09:31,000 Speaker 1: thrown two perfect games. And that was and he and 1250 01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:34,280 Speaker 1: it's like drove himself crazy trying to replicate that. And 1251 01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:38,080 Speaker 1: sometimes when you don't do what you've done, you feel 1252 01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:41,840 Speaker 1: like you're not as successful. Did you drive yourself crazy 1253 01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:43,639 Speaker 1: trying to do another regulate? 1254 01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:46,760 Speaker 2: No, I just I never. 1255 01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:50,400 Speaker 4: I wasn't trying to outdo it. I just I wanna 1256 01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:51,120 Speaker 4: make great music. 1257 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:54,200 Speaker 1: And if it's something does regulate or does better than regulate, 1258 01:09:54,320 --> 01:09:56,599 Speaker 1: so be it. But I'm not gonna make myself sick. 1259 01:09:56,640 --> 01:10:00,439 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna drive myself crazy trying to replicate that. Yeah. 1260 01:10:00,520 --> 01:10:03,920 Speaker 2: Nah, I never never try to compete with it. I 1261 01:10:04,080 --> 01:10:06,680 Speaker 2: just I. I I knew I had a formula though 1262 01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:13,560 Speaker 2: of making uh, making great records. And the formula that 1263 01:10:13,680 --> 01:10:17,200 Speaker 2: I had, which is the reason why I had so 1264 01:10:17,320 --> 01:10:19,680 Speaker 2: many records that were successful, like I want it all, 1265 01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:22,719 Speaker 2: do you see regulate like endo smoke. All these records 1266 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:25,439 Speaker 2: were great because when I work on the project, what 1267 01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:27,560 Speaker 2: I do is I try. Now, I this is what 1268 01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 2: how you make great albums. I try to make every 1269 01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:34,600 Speaker 2: record I do a single M I try to do that, 1270 01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:38,799 Speaker 2: cause that makes you do a lot of good records. 1271 01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:43,040 Speaker 2: So that was my formula with anything I did, I 1272 01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:45,400 Speaker 2: just do a bunch of record, bunch of dope records. 1273 01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:47,680 Speaker 2: I would try to do a a single. But I 1274 01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:50,920 Speaker 2: wasn't trying to compete with Regulate. I was just trying 1275 01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:54,280 Speaker 2: to do a single every time, like d a album 1276 01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 2: full of singles. That was just my my process of uh, 1277 01:10:58,280 --> 01:11:01,599 Speaker 2: my formula when I'm working. And the records that came 1278 01:11:01,680 --> 01:11:05,599 Speaker 2: off of it was was big records. All of them. 1279 01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:09,040 Speaker 2: All of them went gold, platinum, yes indeed, but they 1280 01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:10,240 Speaker 2: didn't go as many as. 1281 01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:12,360 Speaker 1: Regulated, right yeahs. 1282 01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:13,120 Speaker 2: And that's the thing. 1283 01:11:13,320 --> 01:11:15,000 Speaker 1: So you have to you have to be able to 1284 01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:18,360 Speaker 1: be content with the work, yes indeed. And that's like 1285 01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:21,320 Speaker 1: you know what, man, because you know, like you do 1286 01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:24,599 Speaker 1: a deal and it's not twenty million, you do a deal, 1287 01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:26,840 Speaker 1: say let's it's just five or ten? Well, man, I 1288 01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:27,680 Speaker 1: what successful? 1289 01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:30,320 Speaker 2: Damn man, this record wasn't that good? Man? 1290 01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:37,880 Speaker 4: It ain't Regulate, bro, I mean, and I. 1291 01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:41,760 Speaker 2: Mean you just just gotta dust yourself off and try again, 1292 01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:43,479 Speaker 2: just keep going at it. 1293 01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:46,080 Speaker 1: But if you feel like if Warren feels that I'm 1294 01:11:46,320 --> 01:11:49,799 Speaker 1: just listening at this time, this is where I am musically, 1295 01:11:49,880 --> 01:11:52,559 Speaker 1: this is where I am as far as writing.
