Speaker 1: Yo.
Speaker 4: I feel you can feel the unity, bro, and it's amazing.
Speaker 4: It's amazing, like you hangle front like when we you know,
Speaker 4: that was the one thing that happened when the bulls

Speaker 4: when they saw me looking looking at me like I'm.
Speaker 1: The n M.
Speaker 5: Stocks, Like yo, they think about They're like what you're doing,
Speaker 5: I'm like, yo, stock something.
Speaker 4: But but you know one thing that happened for us too,
Speaker 4: and I see it happening in New York. The unity
Speaker 4: man one thing that when the Bulls was winning, Man,
Speaker 4: it wasn't no crime with down people. It was a
Speaker 4: joy around the thing. And that's something that the basketball dude,
Speaker 4: music dude, you know, supports to bring.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 4: I used to love like man, you see, it wasn't
Speaker 4: no game, it wasn't no Cats one game bringing up

Speaker 4: where you was from. You watching the Bulls and we
Speaker 4: always celebrating, and people was making money whether you worked
Speaker 4: at the park and you know, the parking garages or
Speaker 4: the bars. It was just like it just leaked the
Speaker 4: city up. And I see New York doing that. So
Speaker 4: I can't help but in joy seeing y'all, y'all foods, y'all.
Speaker 1: Let me just say you something.
Speaker 3: Me and fact Joe's on one place, Muster Rihbins at
Speaker 3: the other place, and we're doing the same exact thing.
Speaker 3: We can't help it and this comes out. So let's
Speaker 3: get to this. Let's get to this.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: Everyone knows Pee Rock super phenomenal producer. You all the
Speaker 3: accolades in the world, Like, why did y'all come together
Speaker 3: at this point to make this album stuff?
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, Pete Rock was one of the greatest musicians
Speaker 4: producers of rangers, like not just in hip hop, man,
Speaker 4: Like when you create a sound like that last forever, yep,
Speaker 4: that's like people respect like Miles Davis and Charlie Parker,
Speaker 4: you know, Earth Wind and Fire, what they produced music
Speaker 4: that lasted forever.
Speaker 6: Pete Rock has done that, yep.
Speaker 4: And it's like, what what I noticed about because doing
Speaker 4: during the pandemic, I just started like listening just to
Speaker 4: nineties hip hop.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 4: I was just and on my on my workout list
Speaker 4: and all that was a lot of people rock joints,
Speaker 4: and I was like, man, this is this dude is
Speaker 4: one of our greatest and all this stuff going on
Speaker 4: around the cellar.
Speaker 6: We had talked about.
Speaker 4: Connecting before even the Fiftiest celebration, but during the fiftiest celebrations,
Speaker 4: like I was just coming back from filming this Silo
Speaker 4: TV show on Apple, you know anyway.
Speaker 1: But.
Speaker 4: So then but I was like Pete yo, he had
Speaker 4: been sending me some beats. But once I got back,
Speaker 4: I was like, man, let's do this for real, Like
Speaker 4: let's do a project and for me like being around
Speaker 4: hip hop, like I sat in in Yankee Stadium and
Speaker 4: the show that they had and it was like I
Speaker 4: performed on it, but I watched it hip ho yo,
Speaker 4: I watched. I sat in the audience for five and
Speaker 4: a half hours. I ain't never did that no show.
Speaker 4: I'm seeing Fat Joe, I'm seeing Mob Deep, seeing a
Speaker 4: little Nah, everybody.
Speaker 6: Lauryn hill Snoop ice Cube.
Speaker 4: It was incredible and I was like, man, this off
Speaker 4: form is still a I love it. The joy that
Speaker 4: that we felt at that at that concert, I was like,
Speaker 4: people still thirst for this feeling.
Speaker 1: So that's what you got. The idea of y'all getting together.
Speaker 4: We had already started cooking, but it just inspired it more.
Speaker 4: The idea was just like, man, I want to make
Speaker 4: some music that I really love and it's just speaking
Speaker 4: to me because after listening to so much of what
Speaker 4: I was listening to, like, I was like, man, this
Speaker 4: this music is still existing in us. It's not gone,
Speaker 4: and we could do something new. Like when you hit
Speaker 4: the music, it's like we ain't do nothing. It's like
Speaker 4: throw back. It's just it's just got the spirit of
Speaker 4: what with that.
Speaker 1: Music collaboration, and I could tell most of it, most
Speaker 1: of it y'all was together, like I could tell, like
Speaker 1: it doesn't it doesn't feel like I was emailing it.
Speaker 6: I wanted, we wanted the the aura of the nineties.
Speaker 7: That's it, right, And I'm I'm I'm a new peak rock,
Speaker 7: so I'm doing stuff.
Speaker 6: But you hear some stuff that's.
Speaker 7: That you'd be like, oh, okay, I remember, you know,
Speaker 7: it'll give you some memories of what I used to do.
Speaker 6: But you know it's new. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 6: it's new music.
Speaker 1: So let me ask you.
Speaker 3: Because recently I've seen naves post on the on the
Speaker 3: ground and he posted a picture of.
Speaker 1: I guess.
Speaker 3: I guess he was trying to say illmatic and the
Speaker 3: only person that was missing from the picture was notably.
Speaker 1: I was late.
Speaker 3: Oh I and you know, you know, in this business,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, things like that happened because
Speaker 3: I'm I'll be making beats at home and sometimes don't
Speaker 3: realize the time, right, And I'm like that that.
Speaker 7: Was the issue. I was making beats and I looked
Speaker 7: at my watch and I was like, oh damn, I
Speaker 7: just got my card.
Speaker 1: Wow. Wow. In communication, because you know, we heard.
Speaker 3: The rumors that you suing him, yea, and yeah, that
Speaker 3: wasn't never happening. You know how it is in the
Speaker 3: business when it's like, you know, like, hey, you know
Speaker 3: my people, my management noticed this, uh, and I just said, hey,
Speaker 3: help me get it.
Speaker 1: That's that's all it was. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: That's beautiful, but the media makes it something else.
Speaker 6: That's some of the most beautiful music.
Speaker 1: Let me just say that I was.
Speaker 3: I was hurt when I heard it, because let me
Speaker 3: just think you something, when I heard ill mad, I was.
Speaker 3: I was in jail. I was a child in jail.
Speaker 3: But that was like reading the Donald's Goings Book. To me,
Speaker 3: it was almost better than reading the DOMD because I
Speaker 3: knew what he was talking about, and I could smell
Speaker 3: the alleys. I could smell. I could smell the world
Speaker 3: is yours like I can smell how you made it.
Speaker 3: I could smell like so I never want and and.
Speaker 1: But you didn't know, not as yet. I didn't know.
Speaker 1: That's crazy. I saw him, but he wasn't not actually
Speaker 1: ally was was that the bigger figure at this time?
Speaker 3: So it was and I was running together and something
Speaker 3: called the Last we said, something called Brooklyn Queen's Day.
Speaker 3: And I remember I only bought him out. Then I
Speaker 3: got locked up and then I heard this album called Illmatic,
Speaker 3: which I couldn't visually see, but I visually saw it
Speaker 3: because it was the first time.
Speaker 1: I was like, whoa, this is what I want to do.
Speaker 1: Familiarity like that album.
Speaker 4: Man, I think for any MC and really any artist
Speaker 4: is definitely like one of the greatest pieces of art
Speaker 4: that the world has seen.
Speaker 6: You're like, yes, you got you.
Speaker 4: And man as a writer, I was like, man, I
Speaker 4: hadn't heard anybody describing things.
Speaker 1: Hope we need to like like that.
Speaker 4: And you and you being from the Bridge, being from
Speaker 4: Queens pull your left right, Queen from Queen Block the block.
Speaker 4: But but y'all knew what Queens was like about. But
Speaker 4: that was one of the things I loved about that album,
Speaker 4: and I loved about just hip hop is like people
Speaker 4: could describe where they was from.
Speaker 1: You, you could put put you, it comes in exactly.
Speaker 4: They took you to come and then eventually Outcast took
Speaker 4: you to Atlanta.
Speaker 6: You know now took us.
Speaker 1: He took us. It took us.
Speaker 7: It's like watching a movie, bro, It's like watching a
Speaker 7: really good movie. Listening Elmatic, Yeah it is.
Speaker 3: Now I want to I'll change the subject a little
Speaker 3: bit because this is the hottest topic in hip Hop's
Speaker 3: Drake and but you traded bars with Drake and point.
Speaker 3: I remember you called him Canada Drive.
Speaker 1: I was like, I didn't even know. I didn't know
Speaker 1: you can use the soda and this. I was like,
Speaker 1: he's like, you just Canada drives a minute like Canada Drive?
Speaker 1: How is it?
Speaker 5: So?
Speaker 3: You've been one of the most classic battles ever too.
Speaker 3: But let's let's let's stick let's stick to nowadays. I
Speaker 3: didn't see this coming at all. Pause right, either, we
Speaker 3: see j Cole releases, then we see Kendrick, and then
Speaker 3: Kendrick just kept going Gemini.
Speaker 1: I'm blaming the gym. I'm fared to a Gemini.
Speaker 3: Literally because you know I'm gonna be honest and I
Speaker 3: know I'm gonna being a little long gated.
Speaker 1: I remember.
Speaker 3: Us happened to like almost I don't want to say
Speaker 3: convinced nas, but we was like, got a lot of cars, little.
Speaker 1: Jewelry, but none of that things came fool with me.
Speaker 1: We was like, ain't talking about you.
Speaker 3: And it took nags a while right to like actually,
Speaker 3: in my humble opinion, but with Kendrick and and Drake,
Speaker 3: it was almost like the game put them together right,
Speaker 3: Like I don't want to say brownskin and light skin
Speaker 3: because that's like so cliche. Well so it's so simplastic.
Speaker 3: But these are the two top everyweight of the new generation.
Speaker 8: It started before they were the top, because it started
Speaker 8: like ten years ago.
Speaker 1: Did you enjoy this both, y'all?
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm team Kendrick all day. Okay, nothing against Drake, Okay,
Speaker 7: I just felt I just feel his energy that Gemini ship.
Speaker 3: Liked listens Gemini game.
Speaker 1: I love It's some.
Speaker 6: It's some called Geminis in music.
Speaker 3: Lawren hell Andre three thousands se loan.
Speaker 1: People like man.
Speaker 4: But I gotta say this though, for me, I always
Speaker 4: thought Kendrick was just like any generation, one of the
Speaker 4: top these like like because it's albums, man, his album,
Speaker 4: like he really be doing different styles. He don't do
Speaker 4: the same thing with his album. So I always have
Speaker 4: you know, just man, this dude is one of the
Speaker 4: dopest to me. And then for me, Drake was like,
Speaker 4: it's super talented and know how to make his songs.
Speaker 4: And I give honor that when he won a rhyme,
Speaker 4: he can rhyme.
Speaker 1: He rhyme.
Speaker 4: So when they started the battle, it was like to me,
Speaker 4: it was a heavyweight fight. I was like, I was
Speaker 4: like yo, and I was like yo, okay, well what.
Speaker 1: Can you go to say?
Speaker 4: You know, like the nick Kenher came back boom boom.
Speaker 4: It was just to me it was like one of
Speaker 4: the you know, so many battles because we grew up
Speaker 4: in it. Some some ideara to me, one of the
Speaker 4: best battles hipopp has ever said, and we all can
Speaker 4: make a hit record the disk track got Yo.
Speaker 3: Let me just tell you something you just you just
Speaker 3: literally said, want to say, let me just tell you
Speaker 3: it's something about listening to Hot ninety seven. In Hot
Speaker 3: ninety seven, excuse me, I know for your motherfuckers, they
Speaker 3: don't know that. It's something about listening to your home
Speaker 3: radio station when your home.
Speaker 1: Yes, So I landed, me and my wife and.
Speaker 3: I just say to the to the to the car
Speaker 3: service guy put on put on Hot ninety I literally
Speaker 3: said ninety seven.
Speaker 1: Point one, ninety seven point one, and he puts the
Speaker 1: ship on. And that's all I hear, is the Diss records.
Speaker 6: Yes, yes, that's good for hip hop.
Speaker 1: Is it's very good. Realize it. So I actually heard it,
Speaker 1: like I was like hold off, Drake, shit is in rotation,
Speaker 1: Kendrick rollout.
Speaker 8: Today's different from before where maybe you needed the radio
Speaker 8: station to hit, but now they would drop it on YouTube,
Speaker 8: they would dropping on the DSPs that whatever they.
Speaker 3: Actually actually really because you know, like I said, I
Speaker 3: had to. I love taking myself out of hip hop
Speaker 3: and watching hip hop as a fan, and I got
Speaker 3: to like to see I got to hear our Asap
Speaker 3: Rocky record, I got to hear a Future record, I
Speaker 3: got to hear a Drake record, I got to hear
Speaker 3: Kendrick record, and I got to hear it in rotation,
Speaker 3: and that was just like, holy shit. I would have
Speaker 3: been this niggas a long time, you know.
Speaker 1: What I'm doing to me like I have.
Speaker 4: My homies would send me every song that was coming out,
Speaker 4: and it'd be niggas from whatever a generation to send me,
Speaker 4: and it was like, damn, this is hip hop. We
Speaker 4: all like paying attention and like we were listening. We
Speaker 4: listening to the lyrics.
Speaker 1: That's what I like.
Speaker 4: That's the song about these lyrics, man, And for both
Speaker 4: of them to be honest to come with a concept
Speaker 4: this song, like like like when Drake did the pop thing,
Speaker 4: I'm not, you know, like I'm not wanting to feel like, yo,
Speaker 4: if somebody is passed, I don't know if I would
Speaker 4: want to hear. But I still thought conceptually it was
Speaker 4: creative that ship is hell. And then when when Kendrick
Speaker 4: came with to Meet the Grounds, I was like, damn, do.
Speaker 3: A disc shout out to the Alchemists family.
Speaker 1: That's it.
Speaker 6: I was like, it's crazy when people like did they
Speaker 6: go too far?
Speaker 4: I'm like, bro, and this, I don't feel like the
Speaker 4: only thing that is off for me family only is
Speaker 4: not that family. Because Meet the Grounds was amazing. That's
Speaker 4: one of the family ain't off of me. But if
Speaker 4: somebody has passed, okay, you know, like some I ain't
Speaker 4: gonna play with the like I gotta honor that because
Speaker 4: that's somebody's life.
Speaker 8: Man.
Speaker 4: You know. But but if I'm talking about your family
Speaker 4: this part, you know the war water.
Speaker 3: Let me ask you, Pete, Yeah, have you ever produced
Speaker 3: a dis record? And then the artists that they just
Speaker 3: get mad at you when you really don't got nothing
Speaker 3: to do with it.
Speaker 6: Whose ice cube was a little upset with me?
Speaker 1: Okay described this he took a shot of red wine.
Speaker 4: I like that.
Speaker 6: You Yeah, I didn't even know that.
Speaker 1: You didn't I don't know that. I did not know
Speaker 1: that didn't know. I didn't know this man. This man
Speaker 1: had me feeling bad. Okay, yo, he first was upset.
Speaker 1: He's like basket hold on, okay, let's go back to you,
Speaker 1: but hold on them. Because Common, this man made no
Speaker 1: Vas one of the best, one of the records of
Speaker 1: all time. So how how did how the funk is
Speaker 1: Common and ice Cube catch beef? How does I don't remember?
Speaker 1: Don't remember that it was? What's connection? Okay? No, So
Speaker 1: what happened?
Speaker 4: First of all, like I grew up listening to k
Speaker 4: k Rests, Big Daddy came rock him, ice Cube too short,
Speaker 4: Like it wasn't like being in Chicago. We were listening
Speaker 4: to all I gravitated to who I gravitated to it?
Speaker 4: But so I wrote, I used to love her, and
Speaker 4: I used to love about the evolution of hip hop,
Speaker 4: and I used a woman to describe, you know, hip hop.
Speaker 1: One of the most creative records of all time, one
Speaker 1: of my favorite. I never told you this. That's one
Speaker 1: of the records I got on love with hip hop.
Speaker 1: That was the joint. Because I don't know the story,
Speaker 1: So please don't so listen.
Speaker 4: Q was at some point it's crazy case. I remember
Speaker 4: when I first even like I realized he did me.
Speaker 4: I was at a show in Chicago.
Speaker 1: Because you said when you used to love her, when
Speaker 1: you said the West Coast part, he did, Yeah, he was.
Speaker 1: It was it was crazy. Said she broke to the
Speaker 1: West Coast.

Speaker 4: that the pro black was going out of style. I
Speaker 4: was just talking about how we was losing the pro
Speaker 4: blackness and it wasn't all because of the West Coast.
Speaker 6: I was talking about to.
Speaker 4: Be if you really want to know, when one of
Speaker 4: the things that really made me right I used to

Speaker 4: had cubes the record in the video, like, I was
Speaker 4: honering a lot of the hip hop. So one day

Speaker 6: Didn't want to mess with the beat.
Speaker 1: But I was scared, scared after I heard him.
Speaker 4: But listen, I hope that would tell him like that
Speaker 4: you said, I was.
Speaker 1: I was mad. I didn't even make the beat at
Speaker 1: my house. I didn't even make the bet. He comes
Speaker 1: to see you in the studio is this Green Street studio?
Speaker 7: He came to the hood, and first I had to
Speaker 7: calm him down and drive him around the hood, like, Yo,
Speaker 7: let's go get somebody, Let's go see some women.
Speaker 1: Let's go introduce you to some people.
Speaker 7: Right, and then he and then we went to my
Speaker 7: man's house where he had a stack of records. You know,
Speaker 7: I'm going through the records and I'm like, I see
Speaker 7: this record, start playing it and I heard this loop
Speaker 7: and I was like, m and he heard it.
Speaker 6: Then he was like, yo, Pete, do something with that.
Speaker 6: And but you knew that he was going to make
Speaker 6: this record. You knew that.
Speaker 1: You knew that, Okay. At this point he drove him
Speaker 1: around and.
Speaker 3: You know, I was like you.
Speaker 6: So, you know, and then we just you know, he
Speaker 6: heard the loop. Then I got these drums.
Speaker 7: I made it at my man rob O's house, who
Speaker 7: was a member of this group called iron Ie. The
Speaker 7: record I made called Fick and Jack's right at his
Speaker 7: house and he had records and equipment, and I just
Speaker 7: came up with the beat and come and stop bothering
Speaker 7: his head, like, Yo, this one right here. Maybe this
Speaker 7: is the first beat I made, because I was gonna
Speaker 7: make beats. But the first one I made, he picked
Speaker 7: it and said, I'm gonna run with this one.
Speaker 1: Let me ask.
Speaker 6: And that's why I wrote the second verse to it
Speaker 6: after he made that beat.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you, because ice Cube was like a
Speaker 1: hard opponent to GoGet, like how do you gash yourself up?
Speaker 1: Or how do you like come up with that?
Speaker 3: Because I ain't gonna lie And this is me being one.
Speaker 3: If ice Q might have dis me, I might have
Speaker 3: let him ride, like, Man, I don't mind.
Speaker 1: I don't want to ice that. He's one of those mcs, Like, but.
Speaker 3: So what's going to your mom? You're sitting there, you
Speaker 3: like you about to go get one of the greatest.
Speaker 4: Time and like you said, no vacaine is that's the
Speaker 4: coldest specificate, the greatest sim seeds all the time. But
Speaker 4: I was just like, man, I'm gonna have to light
Speaker 4: I'm gonna have to light him up, man. And I
Speaker 4: believed in myself. Man sat down, Yo Yo, I was
Speaker 4: like yo, and the vincuit you. And then I was like, man,
Speaker 4: I just knew I had I could do what I
Speaker 4: needed to do on the back and I wouldn't gonna
Speaker 4: go around. I'm going directract like this this how this
Speaker 4: is how we battle this how like you know who
Speaker 4: is coming to and and and I just felt to
Speaker 4: be honest that I had enough because because I was
Speaker 4: a fan of his, I had enough things I could
Speaker 4: even I was using a lot of things that he
Speaker 4: had done. But let me be clear now, Cubans, my
Speaker 4: guy been in in this movie, one of the barbershop movies,
Speaker 4: got Ultimate Water Orange, and we were grateful to Minister
Speaker 4: fair Con at the time brought us all together together.
Speaker 8: How serious it was getting that. I feel like he
Speaker 8: doesn't get involved unless something.
Speaker 6: He brought us together.
Speaker 4: Literally, like a week after Biggie got killed, he was like, yo,
Speaker 4: this this pocket already died.
Speaker 6: I could got killed, Biggie died.
Speaker 4: He brought it. He brought us together. And and and
Speaker 4: casts like, you know, we're just like, man, we ain't
Speaker 4: trying to die. We want to live like this this
Speaker 4: something for us to live. You know, I'm a battery,
Speaker 4: you know, but you young at the time, You're like,
Speaker 4: you don't know what's gonna happen you and and it's
Speaker 4: for real, but you know, I like when it's when
Speaker 4: it's just on wax man, you know.
Speaker 1: Is it true?
Speaker 8: You the first time you performed it or you performed
Speaker 8: it in l A was one of the first times.
Speaker 6: Yeah, one of the times I performed in l A.
Speaker 1: It was crazy.
Speaker 4: But he was there at the Gavin. You remember, y'all
Speaker 4: remember the gap that Tendon was at the Gavin. You
Speaker 4: know it's all love with maxindam No, but but that
Speaker 4: saying I was on the West Coast. I was like,
Speaker 4: whatever's gonna happen?
Speaker 1: Happen?
Speaker 4: You know, I was in that that type of mentality,
Speaker 4: and then it's crazy. I was on the show and
Speaker 4: it was West Coast, was at the House of Blues,
Speaker 4: and man, I just was like, man, what's gonna happen?
Speaker 4: Is gonna happen? My father was even there. You know,
Speaker 4: it's gonna be the only this record I've ever produced ever.
Speaker 1: Like you, I said that was poland that's good for me.
Speaker 1: It's a classic. Yeah, but god damn, Bed, that was crazy.
Speaker 1: At that time.
Speaker 3: I'm like, like you said, you were looked at like
Speaker 3: a backpack round. I didn't thinking.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for lack of a better term, come this hard, Yeah, hard, yeah,
Speaker 1: hard man. I don't think none of us saw that.
Speaker 4: No, I ain't gonna front. That was a lot of niggas.
Speaker 4: It wasn't like fucking with me or just like he
Speaker 4: wanted them a backpack.
Speaker 1: Dudes.
Speaker 4: I had dudes come up to me and be like, man,
Speaker 4: when I heard the bitch of you, I was like, okay,
Speaker 4: like respected me at that point. But you know, sometimes
Speaker 4: it does that the battles. The battles can get that
Speaker 4: get that out of you. It's like in sports and
Speaker 4: in a lot of things, you know. But yeah, even
Speaker 4: we saw that with the battle with it just happened
Speaker 4: like because I mean to me, when you delivering a
Speaker 4: battle to it just kind of raises the like your
Speaker 4: your artistry up in a way because it's like, Okay,
Speaker 4: I can make these records. I can make a record
Speaker 4: about a woman, I can make a record about what
Speaker 4: life is to me. I can make rem in this
Speaker 4: So I can. But but I can also get into
Speaker 4: this and into this, to this battle, to this war
Speaker 4: and do.
Speaker 1: What I need to do.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Now, your name been brought on so many times
Speaker 3: on this show, right especially, I want to get back
Speaker 3: into the Drake things, just likely a little bit because.
Speaker 1: What was what was the Drake thing over so the
Speaker 1: Drake thing?
Speaker 4: The Drake thing was more like I ain't into like
Speaker 4: what you said, like when you when y'all was telling
Speaker 4: knives man, I think he dissing you.
Speaker 6: But I felt like Drake was sending me a couple
Speaker 6: of shots.
Speaker 1: At the light skin karate class. It really I think
Speaker 1: it started.
Speaker 4: I don't know what motivated him to send me some shots,
Speaker 4: but I think what for sure had me.
Speaker 6: If I'm just being real, like.
Speaker 4: You know, we mess with one of the same girls,
Speaker 4: blah blah blah, the same story. Yeah, the same story
Speaker 4: that you hear a block about it. You know, war's
Speaker 4: happened over women, Wars happened over women.
Speaker 1: That's just what it is.
Speaker 4: I mean, but I wouldn't. I ain't the type this gone.
Speaker 4: I ain't gonna get at you if you know, if
Speaker 4: you with somebody else with I don't know that's the dude.
Speaker 1: But you start throwing me a.
Speaker 5: Couple of littles, you know, you're trying to throw some jass.
Speaker 6: You know yo, And I'm like, man, okay.
Speaker 4: And then once I found you know, once I felt
Speaker 4: like they really remember they dropped the state scheming and
Speaker 4: my homie called me black Calls. He was like and
Speaker 4: he was like, man, he talking talking to you or that,
Speaker 4: And at that point I was like, man, I just
Speaker 4: I can't even I just gotta over the I just
Speaker 4: got to it wasn't even a sche we couldn't tell,
Speaker 4: like because that's that's what That's why I was like,
Speaker 4: we couldn't tell. So that's why I was like, Hey,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna let you know, like right now, this is
Speaker 4: what So if you're coming at me, you don't know
Speaker 4: who it is coming at you coming.
Speaker 1: And it was great.
Speaker 4: It was great that wrap and it was crazy, is
Speaker 4: no idea at that point shout out to know I
Speaker 4: want to know?
Speaker 1: Yeah, shout he he.
Speaker 4: He was like, because I had all these bars and
Speaker 4: he was like, bro, you can't go to hog, just
Speaker 4: wait because it might be another round.
Speaker 6: And he was like the youngest generation, don't.
Speaker 4: Go that hard. And I was like, I was like
Speaker 4: what and man, because all I know is to go
Speaker 4: all out and we're I'm talking about I would pick
Speaker 4: up what I got to pick up. When he told
Speaker 4: me that, I was like, okay, So I took out
Speaker 4: a few lines blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: But and then you know, we had it.
Speaker 4: And I eventually saw Drake face to face and I
Speaker 4: was at a point where you know, I was like,
Speaker 4: what's up? And we just we had little little little
Speaker 4: words and then over and then his father, his father
Speaker 4: was there and it was like, y'all need to squash this.
Speaker 4: And I was like, man, this is an elder talking
Speaker 4: to me. This is man father.
Speaker 1: Let me.
Speaker 6: Let me chill out.
Speaker 4: And then Drake just was like we talked and he
Speaker 4: was like, man, I ain't on this, blah blah blah.
Speaker 4: So we just squashed. I was like, listen, if we
Speaker 4: face the face in it, and then I'm even if
Speaker 4: it was some subliminal distance. I said what I had
Speaker 4: to say. Right now we're saying we're squashing it is
Speaker 4: We're good.
Speaker 1: So I've been good. Listen.
Speaker 3: Do you know what I think is trash is when
Speaker 3: people see each other face the face and didn't do
Speaker 3: it after.
Speaker 7: Don't over battle, That's what I say, the honest don't
Speaker 7: over battle. Do it for the fun, you know, try
Speaker 7: to stay in respectable you know.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 3: I mean that's the only thing that I'm seeing that
Speaker 3: right now. And I don't want to say the people
Speaker 3: name certain people. Sometimes you go too far, Like I
Speaker 3: always if I have a battle with you, if we
Speaker 3: were battling and we don't hate each other, uh, there's
Speaker 3: always room to fix it. But when you start saying
Speaker 3: certain things about certain ship when you can't you can't.
Speaker 1: You can't fix that, you can't fix it, so say
Speaker 1: something personal. I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't like that part, but I do love battling.
Speaker 3: I love like like like you know, uh, face to
Speaker 3: face you know, yeah, I mean like, yeah, I love that.
Speaker 1: I can't. Yeah, right, all right, I love that. But
Speaker 1: this new generation that's bad and social media change every day.
Speaker 4: That's what it was, like media change it or I'm
Speaker 4: glad my battles in it like happened a lot during
Speaker 4: the social media age because you gotta like you gotta
Speaker 4: add that element to it, in which I think they
Speaker 4: did a kid and this like they was like had strategy.
Speaker 1: Use going on.
Speaker 3: Everybody's a private investigator. You got private investigators. Are they
Speaker 3: private investigators or they have private investigators. I don't know,
Speaker 3: like like yeah, they bring it up red files and
Speaker 3: ship they took it up.
Speaker 1: But not okay, let's let's let's let's I'm gonna switch it.
Speaker 1: Get your piece.
Speaker 3: We get the piece because you know what need I
Speaker 3: needed you to talk about this. I needed and especially
Speaker 3: you pee because you're you're very non confrontational, very like
Speaker 3: you're not about that and you not about that. But
Speaker 3: the fact is that you both and I did not remember.
Speaker 3: I knew that you did reduce that, but I didn't remember.
Speaker 1: It. I okay, I forgot. And when space turned red
Speaker 1: is it? I didn't know this man? Okay. But before
Speaker 1: we change the subject, when did you see ice Cube?
Speaker 1: What did he say to you? He said, he come,
Speaker 1: he's good. Bro. You had to respect over with. It's
Speaker 1: all good.
Speaker 4: It's crazy when we were doing when we was doing
Speaker 4: the barbershop movie in the Shottown, we actually were we
Speaker 4: filmed it in Atlanta, but it's you know, it's basically yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: of course, so Cuban. At one point we was about
Speaker 4: to it was crazy because it's like a movie. At
Speaker 4: one point were just about to have him talk or
Speaker 4: hide it all. Like as soon as we started talking,
Speaker 4: he got a phone call and it was like we
Speaker 4: never we never discussed that was Jesus positive positive Now
Speaker 4: we didn't when we were talking about it wasn't like
Speaker 4: it was just like it was almost like one of
Speaker 4: the moments like you know, you got into it.
Speaker 6: Somebody like look, man, this is why I even came
Speaker 6: into like this blah blah.
Speaker 4: But we didn't even get to that bark at that
Speaker 4: point that he ain't want to talk about that's what
Speaker 4: you know what under the bridge.
Speaker 1: His whole attitude about.
Speaker 6: It was like, yeah, yeah it was, Yes, it was
Speaker 6: twenty years later, but I.
Speaker 1: Mean it's good history of hip hop history that let's
Speaker 1: be clear. I still I feel still for like Ce
Speaker 1: got a little bit of pettiness in him. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: would never ba.
Speaker 3: One of our biggest arguments on Drink Champs is which
Speaker 3: I love. I'm just biting Tony Yayo back just for
Speaker 3: him and e FN argument like.
Speaker 1: This ship my favorite because he been a lot of
Speaker 1: people don't know he's actually from l A. But that
Speaker 1: doesn't l A. But that doesn't, you know, make his
Speaker 1: decisions because of that. He's really an ice Cube fan
Speaker 1: and Yo was really it's really a Biggie fan. And
Speaker 1: when YAlO was.
Speaker 3: Saying, he was like, you you've never seen you never
Speaker 3: felt when Biggie dropped, and I'm.
Speaker 1: Like, yes, yes, Yo agreed, he's tough.
Speaker 3: That was the most quietness I've ever been on I
Speaker 3: agree with both sides, and I said, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't want Biggie lived long enough to have the
Speaker 1: discography that it just didn't happen.
Speaker 7: Biggy, I got to see America's most want to go
Speaker 7: down in Green Street because that's what Ice you produced,
Speaker 7: That's what he did that album in New York.
Speaker 3: Out of here by the way to speak up the
Speaker 3: Pete rock you brother the Green Street. Let me let
Speaker 3: me tell you. Another thing that you probably don't know
Speaker 3: is me and pun and you were on that record Records.
Speaker 3: Fun has made a vow that we was going to
Speaker 3: start doing people's records, and it's doing these features.
Speaker 1: I didn't even know. I requested you though I got you.
Speaker 3: So that was the first time me and me and
Speaker 3: one had been but we had never been in the
Speaker 3: studio together.
Speaker 1: And I remember this Green Street studio that it's a
Speaker 1: famous picture of me and you. I was skinny.
Speaker 3: I got to get back to my life. I was
Speaker 3: skinny with the cardiac glasses. And I remember and I
Speaker 3: never told you this neither. I remember just me. That
Speaker 3: was also the quietest I've ever been. I just looked
Speaker 3: at you and said what do I need to do?
Speaker 3: And you said this, this and that, and I did
Speaker 3: not got you.
Speaker 1: This is on video. I listened comment. I did not argue.
Speaker 1: I did not.
Speaker 3: I did everything. I did not want him, Like, this
Speaker 3: is Pete Rock. I did not want him. This is
Speaker 3: this hold on, hold on, hold on, let me get
Speaker 3: your flowers. This was a testing point for me as
Speaker 3: my career. Like Pete Rock called and I was like,
Speaker 3: did he called?
Speaker 1: I was like, you know this. You know we had
Speaker 1: beepers and ship.
Speaker 3: So I was like, Pete called and I was like, yo,
Speaker 3: this is Green Streak Recording Studios.
Speaker 1: I remember I called aver Rex and I was like, yo,
Speaker 1: I gotta have an.
Speaker 4: That.
Speaker 1: I gotta look good with that. And I was asking
Speaker 1: you about it, and I'm like, when you get that jacket,
Speaker 1: I was like, I remember, I just came from out here.
Speaker 1: I forget. I don't want to do it. But that
Speaker 1: ship was a legendary moment in my life. And you
Speaker 1: saw it. You saw it in me like you you
Speaker 1: were one of the first.
Speaker 4: You want to.
Speaker 1: Three sixties. That's what I do. I bring people together.
Speaker 4: As you were saying that, I fast forward to to
Speaker 4: where we are now, and I was thinking, like, to
Speaker 4: be honest, like working with Pete for me now is like, Yo,
Speaker 4: as much as I'm used to being a solo artist,
Speaker 4: I'm a solo artist, you know, and not many producers.
Speaker 4: Sometimes they just give you the beat and and they
Speaker 4: let you go. And and Pete did that some of
Speaker 4: that that, but it was I really appreciate it. When
Speaker 4: he would would guide me too. He was if someone right.
Speaker 4: He would be like, yo, I need you to do this,
Speaker 4: that like, let's straighten this out, let's do that, and
Speaker 4: it was it felt like.
Speaker 6: That's being a producer. That's a producer.
Speaker 1: I felt that he was Nigga too. He gonna say
Speaker 1: it's mooth, but you know what it mean. I make
Speaker 1: you do it eight times. But I love that. And
Speaker 1: to me, that's iron.
Speaker 4: Shopping's iron, like you like, okay, man, I'm a i'm
Speaker 4: a this record gonna come out better. This song will
Speaker 4: come out better because he putting that type of soul
Speaker 4: and energy into it. And when you were saying like
Speaker 4: like us being able to get together, for me, I
Speaker 4: was like, damn, I'm sitting here with Pete Rock.
Speaker 6: He playing records. I'm hearing records that he's.
Speaker 4: Like, you want to use this and that, watching him
Speaker 4: shop up something. Let's try these ideas.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 4: What we always loved about this music, I kind of
Speaker 4: got to do on this album, like like just sitting
Speaker 4: down rocking experience.
Speaker 7: Everyone should experience. Man, it's just if you are and
Speaker 7: you know, working in the physical is way better emailing
Speaker 7: somebody some beats and ship like that. That's when I
Speaker 7: felt the album heard.
Speaker 4: That's when I knew, Yo, that's what That's what That's
Speaker 4: what I felt like. That's when I knew we could
Speaker 4: make a project as special because it was coming out
Speaker 4: to his crib and sitting there and him going through
Speaker 4: music and then even him sending me records Like what
Speaker 4: I was like, this is the process that it's always
Speaker 4: been the best when I'm working with a producer. That's
Speaker 4: how I got to work with Dyla when it was Hey,
Speaker 4: it was for me and Pete. We got, I mean,
Speaker 4: we got everybody got their own special connection. But it's
Speaker 4: also to just to buy Like I ain't you know,
Speaker 4: I ain't into just people sending me music and then
Speaker 4: I do the song and I ain't.
Speaker 6: Never met the person.
Speaker 4: You know, I was on this Dude, I was on
Speaker 4: court as I was on this court a record, and
Speaker 4: I had never met the producer. I'm on the plane
Speaker 4: and he tells me, Yo, you're on one of my records.
Speaker 4: I'm like, it's strange to me.
Speaker 1: Like that ytimate work. But you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 7: I know we do a lot of work, but sometimes
Speaker 7: you know, it gets it gets lost, you don't remember, like,
Speaker 7: oh ship I did that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, But.
Speaker 3: I'm about to say me and I fanabitis argument all
Speaker 3: the time. We don't. We have Major Independent. I always
Speaker 3: say I like Major, and he says he likes Independent.
Speaker 3: But when I say Maker, When I say Major, the
Speaker 3: reason why I say I like Major is because I can.
Speaker 1: Have the budget to fly this artist and if he's
Speaker 1: not if this what I mean.
Speaker 3: More since today, But that's that's the reason why I
Speaker 3: pick it Major, Because if I want to work with
Speaker 3: con I'm in and back then we had an eight
Speaker 3: inch rail, I would have to go to Chicago and
Speaker 3: go work with him and me and people get him
Speaker 3: the flight like we was on a flight together today
Speaker 3: and get to the flight and we produced it. That's
Speaker 3: what made that's why I picked Major more is because
Speaker 3: of the assets of that finances, that.
Speaker 1: That that that provides that you got to recoup what
Speaker 1: you got to recool.
Speaker 3: Of course, yes, but that's the reason why I always
Speaker 3: picked Major is because of course of that like, and
Speaker 3: I also always picked analog.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I like analog more than digital.
Speaker 7: You don't even have your experience with analog coming to
Speaker 7: see people like me and Premier, you have all these
Speaker 7: other producers that worked with analog. It's the most important
Speaker 7: sound music period that gave you that.
Speaker 4: Fact like that, that's that it captures the energy in
Speaker 4: the room, the music, and it's the soul in that
Speaker 4: in that In analog too, I.
Speaker 1: Didn't know how to punch in. Yeah, I didn't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know, didn't punch it. It wasn't as the
Speaker 1: one one you never heard. You got to tell him
Speaker 1: about the hook? Oh yeah, what what what what? That's
Speaker 1: how I counted bars? What what?
Speaker 5: What?
Speaker 1: What? What? What?
Speaker 5: What?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 5: What? What?
Speaker 6: What?
Speaker 5: What?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 6: Everyone got a method today?
Speaker 1: You know that ship. Yes, that's the one that I
Speaker 1: was nervous. I was crazy. I was nervous sound.
Speaker 4: But I gotta say something about that though, because Pete
Speaker 4: always we'll be talking about James Brown and man, that's
Speaker 4: the fact that you's ad lived that and that was
Speaker 4: just just coming you know just what I'm saying, this
Speaker 4: is my thing, but it became something so like that's
Speaker 4: one of the biggest joint in hip hop.
Speaker 3: You were hear something funny about James Brown. I met
Speaker 3: James Brown and Pharrell. Ironically, it was a bm My
Speaker 3: Awards for Forarrell and justin Timberlake, and I walked over
Speaker 3: to James Brown.
Speaker 1: I was like, hey man, you know, he's so nice
Speaker 1: to meet you. And I could tell he knew. He
Speaker 1: did not know, but his nephew or whoever leaned over
Speaker 1: and was like, that's the rapper, that's the rapper.
Speaker 3: And he turned around. He was like, keep saying the
Speaker 3: ship niggas Brown you got you gotta think about it.
Speaker 3: All the early records of hip hop is one of
Speaker 3: the most simple, the most sensible. But you don't care
Speaker 3: if you a rapper up. He just thinks you're sampled.
Speaker 3: He's the most sample. But he has some albums that
Speaker 3: that people ain't listening and these James.
Speaker 6: Brownd songs like.
Speaker 3: I'm just saying I still need to beat kids, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean, like Baked Beans and do whatever.
Speaker 4: But but that feeling of what I'm saying is what
Speaker 4: what like Super Doug is like it's a feeling too,
Speaker 4: Like that's what we got in them records And James Brown,
Speaker 4: you know like hear me on the one that like
Speaker 4: he rehearsed that he's just in there giving the feeling.
Speaker 4: So that honestly one of the what's craziest one of
Speaker 4: on the Song of Light for me, like one of
Speaker 4: the most said lyrics for me on the Song of Light,
Speaker 4: which is you know a love song blah blah blah.
Speaker 6: Is when I say took a tire, took a tire,
Speaker 6: took a ticket to time.
Speaker 4: Now what's crazy is I didn't have my first finish,
Speaker 4: so I just like cio tar and what I'm saying
Speaker 4: it was like and when I tried to change and
Speaker 4: write something, it just didn't feel I'm keeping that plan.
Speaker 4: It was like a reference and I never did a
Speaker 4: take that was better. So I just left in the ticket.
Speaker 4: And to this day, when I put on that song,
Speaker 4: that's what the crowd say, the tar and that. When
Speaker 4: I heard that, I was like, that's the magic of
Speaker 4: the feeling the divine.
Speaker 3: That was some nor slash food ship. What all of
Speaker 3: us do is magic, bro Yep, you he does do
Speaker 3: all magic.
Speaker 9: You know.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 3: That's why me and has been kind of started this
Speaker 3: show is because to me, if you participated in hip hop.
Speaker 1: You're a fucking hero to a certain state.
Speaker 3: Like like like you know how hard it is for
Speaker 3: you to be famous or half famous or whatever whatever
Speaker 3: version of you is.
Speaker 1: We can never take our costume off, like I envy
Speaker 1: the construction worker, envy the McDonald's off their uniform, like
Speaker 1: I envy them, like I can't take it off and on.
Speaker 4: I always think about like hip hop artists. Man, it's
Speaker 4: like they superheroes in so many ways because think about this, you,
Speaker 4: your life and where we come from. You took your
Speaker 4: life and gave it to people and people want to
Speaker 4: be like that it affected, they lie. That's called inspiration
Speaker 4: for you. Like that, like that's the creative working through you.
Speaker 4: You just did what you was supposed to do and
Speaker 4: people like think about how many people have listened to
Speaker 4: you been affected and you just took your aura, just
Speaker 4: giving your aura in the song like all every experience
Speaker 4: you give. And that's what's so dope about hip hop
Speaker 4: because we ain't got We don't have the polish of
Speaker 4: the pop and and all that, you know, meaning like nobody,
Speaker 4: nobody's coached you and how to be you. Like where
Speaker 4: you see some artists, you're like, okay, they've been, they
Speaker 4: went through that, through that machine, and that's how you know,
Speaker 4: they become the big the boy bands or whatever.
Speaker 1: And it's those rough edges that make hip hop special.
Speaker 6: And also mistakes made in the studios like oh ship
Speaker 6: leave it in that you.
Speaker 4: Know, and people you know, obviously, people in certain genres
Speaker 4: of music, they don't like when I get to perform
Speaker 4: sometimes with the symphonies and stuff, you know, and I'm like, man,
Speaker 4: it's two different worlds. I appreciate being able to have
Speaker 4: all the streams and blah blah blah, but it's such
Speaker 4: a rigid thing. I'd be like, I'll be bringing them
Speaker 4: to our world as much as possible. It's like hip
Speaker 4: hop is like that that what you just said, the mistakes,
Speaker 4: the freedom, the revolution in it. It's like, man, this
Speaker 4: is this is I'll be like, man, thank you God
Speaker 4: for putting me in hip hop, honestly, but even you know,
Speaker 4: to be honest, even though if going into the acting world,
Speaker 4: people ask you, people say to me, you're a rapper,
Speaker 4: so should be able to act. Now now, I don't
Speaker 4: believe that it's a different discipline, but being able to
Speaker 4: go and like do what we experienced y'all know what
Speaker 4: it takes for us to make these records, to go
Speaker 4: get these records, to go get going to the club.
Speaker 4: I remember, man, we used to have to go to
Speaker 4: the radio station earlier in morning, go to the barbershops,
Speaker 4: go to.
Speaker 1: The club because of a promotional.
Speaker 4: Mind popping. You don't get paid for that type of work.
Speaker 4: That type of work, man, is like to me, like
Speaker 4: it helped it shape you for like a lot of
Speaker 4: stuff that we need to go into in business and
Speaker 4: all type of shit.
Speaker 3: You know, you know it's you know, you're fucking me
Speaker 3: up right now, you know what's the crazy thing? My
Speaker 3: next question was to both for y'all. My next question
Speaker 3: was because me sometimes I don't I'm scared to speak
Speaker 3: to the younger generation. I don't know if this makes sense,
Speaker 3: but let me try to make it make as much
Speaker 3: sense as it can't. Like what you just said, I
Speaker 3: want the next younger artist to hear that from you.
Speaker 3: But this generation that came, and I'm gonna say it,
Speaker 3: and they're gonna they're gonna be mad at me. They're
Speaker 3: like dumb, like like they have one track. Think I'm
Speaker 3: not saying you can't generation, I can't love the whole generation.
Speaker 3: It because like, look, look what I just said to you.
Speaker 3: I said, I'm so honored to being with the studio
Speaker 3: with you. I literally didn't talk.
Speaker 1: Back to you.
Speaker 3: I'm just like, yes, let But that's because I feel
Speaker 3: like the generation that we came from, what it was
Speaker 3: about respect. It was about respecting your eldest. We're giving
Speaker 3: you something good, yes, yes, And where as of now
Speaker 3: they want they want to test the eldest. Like it's
Speaker 3: just even like we as we said with you and Drake,
Speaker 3: like God bless God, blessed Drake. But he was never
Speaker 3: supposed to come at you because of your seniority to
Speaker 3: hip hop already it was supposed to You're supposed to
Speaker 3: be off limits. Like there's certain people that are supposed
Speaker 3: to be off to be as about Common. You know
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, It's not supposed to be as wrecking
Speaker 3: about Pee. So so let me make this question makes sense.
Speaker 3: Is sometimes I'm scared to reach out to the young generation,
Speaker 3: Like I've.
Speaker 1: Your city.
Speaker 3: Your city has some of the youngest, wildest, and I
Speaker 3: imagine if Common reaches out to little Monster, you'll reach
Speaker 3: out to little Monster and like yo yo yo yo, bro,
Speaker 3: I just want you to know I've been through everything
Speaker 3: you've been through. You know what I'm saying. The chicks
Speaker 3: that you you dated, I've dated though. You know, the
Speaker 3: wars that you've been through. I've been through the war.
Speaker 3: Like is it easy for Is that an easy thing?
Speaker 3: Because it's not an easy thing for me. Comment Pete,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be honest with you.
Speaker 1: The minute I try to talk to a young dude
Speaker 1: and I feel like they're not listening, I'm like, I
Speaker 1: got better things than you do. I'm sorry, I'm about guy.
Speaker 1: I know this, I know this. I came to the
Speaker 1: realization I'm looking abou over in the mirror and I said,
Speaker 1: I'm not that mad. I'm not that good of a person, right,
Speaker 1: but like it close to that. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: because I listened. I listened to.
Speaker 3: KRS, I listened to Rock Kim, I listened to Big
Speaker 3: Daddy k My eyeberas are thick because I cut my shit.
Speaker 6: You just dropped, just dropped the gym. That was Actually
Speaker 6: that was when you were saying.
Speaker 4: One of the for me, I think one of the
Speaker 4: things that the younger generation didn't feel like we did
Speaker 4: is listen to them like and like, you know, like
Speaker 4: we had people that was older than us and just said, like,
Speaker 4: including parents, it's like, yo, you do what I say,
Speaker 4: do it that, blah blah blah, and and some of
Speaker 4: that work.
Speaker 1: I'm glad that my mother gave.
Speaker 4: Me some of that discipline and something, but some of
Speaker 4: it is like you know, we we came from a
Speaker 4: generation too where we're like, yo, this is the purest
Speaker 4: we from the nineties, but where we didn't.
Speaker 6: Listen to them and kind of I don't.
Speaker 1: Know what they was doing.
Speaker 4: So then they're like, well, all right, well y'all ain't
Speaker 4: when you know, y'all don't give us, y'all don't even
Speaker 4: respect us.
Speaker 6: And I've been one that that that they felt that
Speaker 6: about like at some point. But but me too, I can't.
Speaker 4: I can't. Like I got a Harriet Tubman mentality, Like
Speaker 4: I always feel like, man, if I get any type
Speaker 4: of wisdom, I'm gonna try to bring it back, any
Speaker 4: type of resources, I'm gonna try to bring it back.
Speaker 6: I am gonna bring it back, and I'm gonna try to.
Speaker 4: Do it without preaching, and like and the thing I
Speaker 4: and the thing I've noticed just speaking to Chicago specifically,
Speaker 4: but I feel like it's you thrown across the board
Speaker 4: like that man, when you really present with him, give
Speaker 4: them a listen, hit him out, give them a little wisdom.
Speaker 6: Keep showing by example.
Speaker 4: They start responding to it in certain ways, and if
Speaker 4: and if they don't, man, sometimes they might get it later.
Speaker 4: But I understand why you get frustrated, because it's like, yo, bro,
Speaker 4: I done.
Speaker 6: Man, come on, man, like I don't. Bit's what you
Speaker 6: think I believe.
Speaker 7: Like, especially, I'm a very opinionated guy, so you know,
Speaker 7: I critique. You know, I'm like, you could do better here,
Speaker 7: you could say better rhyme here. You know that's the
Speaker 7: kind of thing I am. So they may take it
Speaker 7: as disrespect, but I'm really saying do better.
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, do better because hip hop
Speaker 6: taught me to be better.
Speaker 1: Right. Yeah. I also think.
Speaker 8: I also think there's a generation of ogs that tried
Speaker 8: to act like hygs, and this young generation was like
Speaker 8: looking at like, was like, man, don't, don't don't try
Speaker 8: to act like us, act like you, so we could
Speaker 8: know what to expect down the line, what to emulate
Speaker 8: down the line.
Speaker 1: The only way I'm acting like that, Buster said.
Speaker 3: Buster said he accepted his life time speech toward I
Speaker 3: don't even know if you guys remember as me t ward.
Speaker 1: He was like us, oh gz, we gotta we got
Speaker 1: to play our part. Yeah, and he was like, why
Speaker 1: they listening to us because we don't look our part.
Speaker 1: And I was just like, damn, but he's not wrong, right,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Some of them look at
Speaker 1: us and then and they don't see us in a car.
Speaker 1: They like, they don't see us in a watch. They're like,
Speaker 1: they're like, oh man, well we got more than you.
Speaker 1: So it's hard to listen to somebody you think you're
Speaker 1: doing better.
Speaker 6: Then yeah, that's true.
Speaker 4: But then I think, you know, sometimes they should be
Speaker 4: you know, some of them be empty with the stuff
Speaker 4: they feel like.
Speaker 6: God, their soul still be empty. Yeah, and when you
Speaker 6: when you give.
Speaker 4: Them a little something like man, I just straight up
Speaker 4: had talks with youngins from Chicago like Yo, I needed, Yo,
Speaker 4: you need to go to this therapy.
Speaker 6: Man therapy. Like I'm telling you this right now.
Speaker 4: You see me and you feel like, oh yeah you
Speaker 4: successful and and yo you got this you acting you
Speaker 4: blah blah blah.
Speaker 6: No, go to therapy.
Speaker 1: Bro. It has helped me and my thing is like that.
Speaker 4: I feel like for me, I'm thinking of Chicago too
Speaker 4: in a way like the ogs. When I became a
Speaker 4: first shorty first started calling me o G I'm like, oh, ship,
Speaker 4: but I mean that.
Speaker 1: That was a whole long time. But hold up, but
Speaker 1: because you ain't make it.
Speaker 4: But I think, you know, like one of the things
Speaker 4: I felt like we I can speak specifically, especially when
Speaker 4: it comes to the gang culture in Chicago, I feel
Speaker 4: like we like the dudes that raised us, they gave
Speaker 4: us certain amounts of like laws, wisdom and stuff that
Speaker 4: just like moral conduct in the streets. You know what
Speaker 4: I'm saying, like this, like this is too far, Like
Speaker 4: you ain't like if you go if you do this,
Speaker 4: that's a violation and you're gonna you're gonna pay for it.
Speaker 4: And I don't think like we in my generation when
Speaker 4: it came to the Chicago culture really sat down and
Speaker 4: it took that time.
Speaker 6: You gotta take time with these youngests. You got to
Speaker 6: be consistent. You gotta be consistent.
Speaker 1: I learned. I'm going to tell you something common I've
Speaker 1: been going.
Speaker 3: Obviously, Chicago is like my number seventh market, like seventh
Speaker 3: eighth it was.
Speaker 1: It was in my top ten. So I've been going
Speaker 1: to call and by the way, I'm half black, half
Speaker 1: so I have nothing but tires.
Speaker 3: In Chicago, my family and my family went for Puerto
Speaker 3: Rico Spanish hallm Chicago.
Speaker 1: Right, I'm gonna tell you something.
Speaker 3: In the nineties, even though they might have said that
Speaker 3: Chicago was worse than the nineties, they had OG's. I
Speaker 3: felt safe for going to Chicago in the nineties early
Speaker 3: two thousands. Then I do go in there now where
Speaker 3: I feel like and now you can you can forgive me.
Speaker 3: I mean, you could correct me.
Speaker 1: Excuse me. I don't feel like this structure now, but
Speaker 1: you just named it. You just named it. A COMPETI Green.
Speaker 1: I went to Competing, you know, went to Competty Green.
Speaker 1: I I gotta be a good.
Speaker 3: Times d the club across the street.
Speaker 1: I did. I did a record with R. Kelly. I
Speaker 1: know it's frown upon now, but I did that. It
Speaker 1: was classic songs like that, what's good it is good?
Speaker 1: So and I say it on the R. Kelly record,
Speaker 1: I said, Sammy's, So, Sammy's was this this? This so
Speaker 1: like soul Foods.
Speaker 3: Fire Ticket restaurant across the street from Competer Green and
Speaker 3: people used to be like.
Speaker 1: Yo, why do you keep going there? Like I just
Speaker 1: love But what I'm trying to tell you is I
Speaker 1: didn't know.
Speaker 3: I was in a dangerous place because it was so structured,
Speaker 3: like the o gs.
Speaker 1: Had me like like you know what I mean, o G.
Speaker 4: But that's what the os to to me at that
Speaker 4: point was Mathur's like that Authur is so my west.
Speaker 1: The other one is.
Speaker 4: I think the ogs knew it, like you said, like
Speaker 4: I said earlier, a little bit like they knew like
Speaker 4: you can't go but so far it was and you like, man,
Speaker 4: we ain't gon ain't no children gonna get some children
Speaker 4: get hid in this and you you're gonna pay for that,
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. And when younger people just
Speaker 4: started dying, man, like young people just out at the
Speaker 4: park I'm talking, and babies started getting shot, I just
Speaker 4: felt like, man, ashamed of our city. Like I felt like, man,
Speaker 4: we gotta do better, and man, people working to try
Speaker 4: to do things, and and it's it's a it's a
Speaker 4: collective by dude.
Speaker 6: We got we got so many positive things about that.
Speaker 6: But I mean I brought that up.
Speaker 4: But the answer your question about the youngest, I think
Speaker 4: you know, man, we just got to keep reaching for
Speaker 4: him man, and said, listen to him too. Bro. My
Speaker 4: daughter taught me that ship my son. Yeah, my daughters
Speaker 4: like my daughter too. Yeah, you ain't got all the answers.
Speaker 4: And I'm like she basically, I mean, she said in
Speaker 4: her own way, and I was like, you know what,
Speaker 4: You're right, I don't answers. And even if I think
Speaker 4: I'm right, I still need to hear you out, you know.
Speaker 1: And that's just to me.
Speaker 6: That's the collector. We got to hit the young is out.
Speaker 3: You know what I read the other day on the
Speaker 3: plane sitting there going through something, and they told me
Speaker 3: that Chicago real estate is the illest real estate, Like
Speaker 3: it's the place to invest in right now, but not
Speaker 3: according to our music.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yo, what the were hearing it? Just think
Speaker 1: about what I just said. I'm on, you know, i'
Speaker 1: mean whatever.
Speaker 8: Exact gentrification though, because I got something, it's got something.
Speaker 8: It's beautiful license I was looking because they tore down
Speaker 8: it was a complete green right green.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: But shots, speaking of real estate, I want to shout
Speaker 4: out my man more repeat the real estate in Chicago.
Speaker 4: If you want real estate, what's the vibe on Hyde
Speaker 4: Park though always High Park was always like High Park
Speaker 4: was one of the It's crazy because when when you
Speaker 4: were saying Puerto Rican.
Speaker 9: Porto parade from that park, that's not from there, boy boy,
Speaker 9: he was from there, Puerto Rican.
Speaker 4: But but I'm gonna tell you though, y'all, I gotta say,
Speaker 4: being in Chicago, to be honest, like it's a real
Speaker 4: segregated city. I didn't know Puerto Ricans and Dominicans could
Speaker 4: look like we do. Like until I came to New York,
Speaker 4: till I met Juju and last from the beating Us
Speaker 4: that's from the story.
Speaker 1: Of Corona, Corona, Corona. I was beating us Corona.
Speaker 6: That was my first like.
Speaker 1: That's what I got my last and ju Ju fat.
Speaker 4: But I'm saying I didn't know that it could, you know,
Speaker 4: so like until I started getting in New York and
Speaker 4: then that that exposed me to like, oh man, it's
Speaker 4: different cultures and different people.
Speaker 1: You know. It's the funny shit.
Speaker 3: I've been touring since nineteen ninety eight, so I forget
Speaker 3: what year this was. And I called my Spanish cousins
Speaker 3: from Chicago and my Black cousins from Chicago.
Speaker 1: They met me at the House of Blues.
Speaker 3: They found out they lived across the street from each
Speaker 3: other for twenty years and didn't know each other.
Speaker 6: What are you serious? I swear, Wow, that's cousins. It happened.
Speaker 3: Still, it's my black cousin, right, that's black, and my
Speaker 3: Spanish cousin. So their cousins my default right, But they're like, yo,
Speaker 3: cool now they I don't, I don't.
Speaker 1: They might still be shooting at family members. I got
Speaker 1: with each other the day, Holy ship, how is it
Speaker 1: over there? It's okay, how is it over there? That's
Speaker 1: why they may be closed, but the world's apart.
Speaker 3: And it was like, that's when I knew how segregated
Speaker 3: Chicago was because in New York, in Jersey, the Bronx
Speaker 3: and Mount Vernon, like blacks and Latinos pretty pretty much
Speaker 3: lived in the same environment. And then when I went
Speaker 3: to l a and then I seen that, like we
Speaker 3: had will i Am on recently, and will I Am
Speaker 3: was like the only like, yeah, he was.
Speaker 1: Career man. You don't you don't see that. But I
Speaker 1: had not known that living in New York City my
Speaker 1: whole life.
Speaker 3: I thought that, you know, everyone is like that, because
Speaker 3: in New York is It's like, if you're really.
Speaker 1: Really from New York, you can't be racist. Man, you
Speaker 1: have a Russian neighbor, Yeah, you have a Haitian who
Speaker 1: lives downstairs.
Speaker 3: You have a Haitian who cooks downstairs. Weird is Jamaican belt,
Speaker 3: so it's kind of weird. It's kind of weird.
Speaker 1: Then you got a Jamaican and they got the Colombian.
Speaker 1: You got Colombian, and.
Speaker 4: It's like, maybe not, but that's what I love. That's
Speaker 4: what I love about New York. But man, that was
Speaker 4: the thing that I would to this day what I
Speaker 4: love about New York.
Speaker 1: It's the most.
Speaker 4: It's the most I see a different cultures people and
Speaker 4: it ain't like it ain't like it ain't no fakeness
Speaker 4: about the way it blends. Like I'll be seeing like
Speaker 4: black and white dudes, Latino dudes playing handball together, like
Speaker 4: pick up handball.
Speaker 6: Being in New York, it's it's easy to adapt.
Speaker 7: And when once you're in New York, you know what
Speaker 7: I'm saying, Like the culture is so crazy, everyone just
Speaker 7: kind of adapts to that ship.
Speaker 1: You know. Well, look, let me just tell you what
Speaker 1: our show is about. Man.
Speaker 3: Our show is about giving people they fly bro while
Speaker 3: they are alive. They where they could smell them, with
Speaker 3: the trees you can hell them where you could think them,
Speaker 3: and drinks where you could drink them.
Speaker 1: And we wanted to give y'all. Y'all people you are.
Speaker 1: You are one of the best producers of all time.
Speaker 1: Thank you, sir. You know that.
Speaker 3: Hold on, let me can give you your flowers. I
Speaker 3: love your humbleness. I love how you keep it fucking
Speaker 3: hip hop. Yes, sir, like no matter if you tell
Speaker 3: me right now, say Pete Walkins in Sweden, I'm like,
Speaker 3: keeping a hip hop.
Speaker 1: I don't need to know what you're doing in Sweden.
Speaker 3: You could be doing a roller skating ring and people
Speaker 3: running around with tights.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I bet you Pete is keeping a hip hop.
Speaker 1: I don't know and comment.
Speaker 3: Let me just tell you something. I'm a movie buff,
Speaker 3: so I know my friend who can't speak English that good.
Speaker 3: He's seen every one of your movies and I know
Speaker 3: he might have been freestyle a little bit.
Speaker 1: I've seen everyone of you.
Speaker 3: Thanks and the worlds have you brung us to and
Speaker 3: represented our culture. We all owe you, Yes, we owe
Speaker 3: you big time, because again, when I see coming, I'm
Speaker 3: like keeping a hip hop I don't have to question
Speaker 3: you like there's certain people that I would look like, Man,
Speaker 3: he fucked up.
Speaker 1: He represents the.
Speaker 3: Coaching no more like it's certain it's certain people. But
Speaker 3: and the fact that you two brothers is getting together,
Speaker 3: getting together to drop this album in June. Correct man,
Speaker 3: the fact that we have a record to guess exactly
Speaker 3: exactly nineties.
Speaker 1: But I've done stuff for you too. That's right.
Speaker 3: To give you your flowers, tell y'all how important your
Speaker 3: hours to the coach, how proud we are of y'all,
Speaker 3: and how.
Speaker 1: Much we want y'all to keep going. Man, Because one
Speaker 1: thing that that jay Z album taught me about four
Speaker 1: four four is we don't have to dumb down us.
Speaker 1: We could up it, and we could because our audience
Speaker 1: with us. He's they might work for u bs now,
Speaker 1: but they grew with us like they you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, we don't have to like you said
Speaker 1: something earlier, you said you didn't like when artists we're
Speaker 1: trying to sound like the West Coast, and so that's
Speaker 1: what you said on our level. But at one point
Speaker 1: everyone and wanted to be from the South hip hop.
Speaker 1: It's still it's still has still it's still.
Speaker 9: It's New York.
Speaker 1: Fault play in New York for that people do not
Speaker 1: let him get away with you New York. And I'm
Speaker 1: not saying you individual, I'm gonna say cats in New York.
Speaker 1: Certain cats.
Speaker 7: Now everybody lost some identity of where they're from and
Speaker 7: what they represent. And so that's why I'm like, yo,
Speaker 7: you know, when let the South be the South because
Speaker 7: I love Outcast, that's my favorite group in the South
Speaker 7: and Luda and all them. Rest in peace to Rico
Speaker 7: and he was the awesome he was awesome producer. You know,
Speaker 7: shout out to Jip, you know, that's my guy from
Speaker 7: Goodie Mom. So my thing is like, you know, let
Speaker 7: them be who they are and always represent who you are.
Speaker 7: And if y'all end up doing music together, then y'all
Speaker 7: just make it fun with both, with both Atlanta and
Speaker 7: New York.
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, listen, So let me ask you, Pete being
Speaker 3: from Mount Vernon, like Mount Vernon is always kind of
Speaker 3: known as the sixth Borough, right because it's technically not
Speaker 3: New York City, but it's New York.
Speaker 1: Yes, was that a burden on you or was that
Speaker 1: a plus? I don't know.
Speaker 7: Right next to the Bronx, right next to the Bronxronx
Speaker 7: right then I could walk to the Bronx from Mount Vernon.
Speaker 7: So my my thing is, it's just like it's the
Speaker 7: hidden city in New York.
Speaker 1: You feel me? You know what?
Speaker 7: Heavy Day, Ozzie Davis, Ruby, d Wow, Felicia shot and Madrashot.
Speaker 6: Williams, Gus Williams, the Knicks.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 7: Dick Clark went to Mount Vernon High School. Denzel Washington,
Speaker 7: Nina Simon too. Okay, yeah, man, bro Yees, you know
Speaker 7: what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Hold On, you mentioned Heavy D. I feel like Heavy
Speaker 1: D hasn't got to just do with all the.
Speaker 3: Celebration of well because of him, why I got started,
Speaker 3: a lot of people, a lot of people picked up the.
Speaker 7: Whole neighborhood put him on his back. That's why I
Speaker 7: missed him so much. I love her so much.
Speaker 1: Your cousin Greg, Yeah, he took, he took, He took
Speaker 1: us all with him. Yeah, he was a forest man
Speaker 1: with him.
Speaker 4: He opened it up for like hip hop is in
Speaker 4: different ways. Yeahs. As Tip said on that don't curse
Speaker 4: the bump did ahead is a favor on my mama's
Speaker 4: like the head is the favorite of Mama's used to heavy.
Speaker 4: D was the one that took it to some people,
Speaker 4: like took the music where older people, certain people like
Speaker 4: were like, oh I actually like this this music because
Speaker 4: you know they used to be like rap, like what
Speaker 4: is that?
Speaker 7: But it wasn't forever. I wouldn't have probably been with
Speaker 7: Molly Ma. Wow, you feel what I'm saying?
Speaker 1: How explain that?
Speaker 7: Because he pitched me at the time Marlly needed a
Speaker 7: DJ on the radio in New York City on w
Speaker 7: b l S, and he said, he said, Yo, my cousin,
Speaker 7: My cousin is dope. Listen to him trying, and he
Speaker 7: gave me a shot. And that's how I built my name.
Speaker 7: Shout out to Mary, Yeah, shout out tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Let me give you another one. This this one brew
Speaker 1: my mom. We had d m C on here. Oh yeah.
Speaker 1: D MC said, pe Rock saved my cook.
Speaker 6: You know what that You know what that means?
Speaker 1: Did you hear it from?
Speaker 10: You know what?
Speaker 1: That made me? That was so dope, undersud what he was.
Speaker 8: Talking about with Donald the King and everything that happened
Speaker 8: with those records, because that was.
Speaker 6: In the beginning of my career and me and Jay
Speaker 6: were like this with each other.
Speaker 7: And when I met Russell, it was like, damn, I
Speaker 7: got approved to these dudes, Russell Lee or I got
Speaker 7: I got something to prove and so, like you know,
Speaker 7: I felt like the first run up down with the King,
Speaker 7: Russell's made some comments and I.
Speaker 1: Was like, shit, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 7: It wasn't good, Like yeah, like you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 7: Like you know, but it's all good because Jay was like,
Speaker 7: don't worry about it, Pete, don't worry about it. We're
Speaker 7: gonna keep working on it. And then we did the
Speaker 7: beat and actually, I don't know if people know this,
Speaker 7: but Jay literated the actual beat pattern he wanted right.
Speaker 7: So I was like, I just hit record and said
Speaker 7: you do it.
Speaker 1: MM.
Speaker 7: So what you hear on the record right now is
Speaker 7: Jay's programming of the drums, And all I did was
Speaker 7: add to the wow.
Speaker 1: Bucking up my whole child, yo, yo.
Speaker 8: But I don't think what people understand about that record
Speaker 8: and what you did there, and what DMC was trying
Speaker 8: to tell us is that you brought them up to
Speaker 8: speed to the newer generation. That that wasn't an easy
Speaker 8: task bring run DMC into that.
Speaker 7: World because you know, we were new and when we
Speaker 7: had a hit record, we had reminisce.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is right here, this is by the way.
Speaker 1: Let me just say, let me just think one of
Speaker 1: the greatest. I saw none of this.
Speaker 3: I always thought that they never had a dry spell.
Speaker 3: And he said that what I'm saying, he fucked up
Speaker 3: my childhood because I was like what and he was like,
Speaker 3: you Pete Rock saved and like he said it again.
Speaker 1: I tried to give him a drink. It didn't work.
Speaker 3: I was like, were you sure like and he was like,
Speaker 3: but but you know, I'm not in the industry at
Speaker 3: this time. So has always been the biggest. And he says, no,
Speaker 3: if it wasn't for beat Rock, Like he reiterated what
Speaker 3: one DMC is.
Speaker 1: I was DMC. I've told y'all he's man. That's my guy. JMJ.
Speaker 6: We were the closest when he was alive. Me and
Speaker 6: Jay were really close.
Speaker 1: Yo.
Speaker 4: What's crazy is the first my first chance at a
Speaker 4: record deal coming from Chicago. Jam Master J was going
Speaker 4: to sign me, but but wow, he decided, he told me,
Speaker 4: and first, You're right. He was one of the coolest
Speaker 4: brothers just no. And and you know, coming from the crib,
Speaker 4: coming from Chicago, we was trying to get hurt. And
Speaker 4: somehow he got our demo because we send the demos
Speaker 4: to you know, used to look at the back of
Speaker 4: the records and send the demos and he had JMJ
Speaker 4: and he met with us and everything. He's like, man,
Speaker 4: I'm thinking about signing you, but he decided not to.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 6: He he ended up going WITHX running the back.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, and then I can see that. But he
Speaker 4: told me, yeah, it just made sense. And he was like,
Speaker 4: I ain't signing you too, because you was over here
Speaker 4: and your managers over here, your producers over here. But man,
Speaker 4: he kind of like always would would embrace me and
Speaker 4: shed light, you know, and I hear stories about about
Speaker 4: what you're saying, like and he programmed that that's that's crazy.
Speaker 1: I never knew that. I was like, you do it.
Speaker 6: He's like he said to be.
Speaker 7: He's like, I'm dat you can get And I just said,
Speaker 7: all right, look, hit the record button.
Speaker 1: I said, just hit the kick Just do that.
Speaker 6: Okay.
Speaker 3: But let me ask you, Chris, because the way DMC
Speaker 3: describes it, Hopefully you saw the episode.
Speaker 1: If not see.
Speaker 3: Everything because he describes it as if like they were
Speaker 3: literally over and you gave them like what that's your
Speaker 3: It was their album Back from Hell that didn't do well,
Speaker 3: that's the reason.
Speaker 1: And so they came to me at that time and
Speaker 1: he said hip hop had changed, yes, drastic, Yes, that's
Speaker 1: when we were brand new.
Speaker 7: So he came to me, and you know, we worked
Speaker 7: out some beats, and Down with the King was the
Speaker 7: one that you know, I started playing samples and records.
Speaker 7: That's the first thing I do when you come to
Speaker 7: see me, I'm playing records. You like that, I want
Speaker 7: me hook that up, and that's how it goes.
Speaker 3: I know that's but did you know what he was
Speaker 3: saying like that, that you was literally bringing their career back.
Speaker 1: You knew that well.
Speaker 7: I didn't know that, but when I heard him say it,
Speaker 7: that ship made me feel good. That should This is
Speaker 7: a this is a group. I'm a fan. I used
Speaker 7: to buy the records run to the record store boys.
Speaker 1: So you're literally saying you just produced this record just
Speaker 1: just to produce it.
Speaker 6: No, I produced it because I wanted it would have
Speaker 6: been That was an honor. I got a question though, too, you.
Speaker 4: Like, so, who have you been in the studio with
Speaker 4: where you've been, Like, damn, I'm actually producing for this person.
Speaker 1: Run dm C, running to run d B. Because there's

Speaker 4: greatest producers, like of hip hop in that like.
Speaker 6: On that album, that writing is to me, it's.
Speaker 4: Like I know people, I mean to me, it's at
Speaker 4: the level like when you like hundreds of years from now,
Speaker 4: when people study writing and black literature and all that stuff,
Speaker 4: like like how Kendrick wont to poland surprise, that's Polish surprise,
Speaker 4: you know what give large, professor, And we did and
Speaker 4: we actually did, yes for pulling us together.
Speaker 1: Wait, so you're saying that was Large Professors.
Speaker 3: Large Professor is the one who contacted everyone. He contacted

Speaker 6: He's the one that brought us all together.
Speaker 4: What was he think?
Speaker 1: Was it his idea? He did not? Do you think?
Speaker 6: No said yo, I want to work.
Speaker 7: Yeah he did, he did, But I mean Large was
Speaker 7: already hanging with each other. I used to go to
Speaker 7: Glorious on going to Green Green.
Speaker 3: Line Records store of course street from Coliseum in Queens.
Speaker 4: I was always I love when he said I just
Speaker 4: hanging out. I'd be up in Mount Vernon peacing with
Speaker 4: small rock making beats, that shopping. But you know what,
Speaker 4: I had never heard what you just said. It Maatic
Speaker 4: it's my favorite album. Sometimes like when I and now
Speaker 4: this happens to be my friend.
Speaker 1: So sometimes I get like stalkery. I keep bringing up.
Speaker 1: He'll be looking at me like, man, you remember what
Speaker 1: you said? You know, you know, but I had never
Speaker 1: heard what you just said.
Speaker 3: So and just because I'm a little stalkery, just because
Speaker 3: of that, you're telling me the first time you ever
Speaker 3: got a call about anybody name, And I said, what's
Speaker 3: through Large?
Speaker 1: So you didn't even hear of who knows was wow.
Speaker 4: Just before Alive at the Barbecue.
Speaker 7: Barbecue, because then that's when they came up with this,
Speaker 7: you know, like, yo, we we're going to get this producer,
Speaker 7: this producer, this produced But.
Speaker 8: The fact that he even has him in Life at
Speaker 8: the Barber he shows you how much Large Professor was
Speaker 8: involved in all of that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but what's crazy on Live at the Barbecue. People
Speaker 4: gravitated more than Anelly than they did. I mean, at
Speaker 4: least like a months. My crew we was like, oh,
Speaker 4: he's doing that. But then you heard that, which it was.
Speaker 12: When I was twelve, I went to help with I'm
Speaker 12: the bar no ready to go back to the game
Speaker 12: again and then you go back.
Speaker 3: I had more of of personality like like but that
Speaker 3: line fucked the industry.
Speaker 1: When I was twelve, I went to help us nothing
Speaker 1: Jesus because we didn't know if it was hard off.
Speaker 3: I guess I was up for the church. I was
Speaker 3: like up in the chuck, like, wasn't right. I can't
Speaker 3: say this, but I was like, you know, he didn't
Speaker 3: say that. That's when rap changed when he said that.
Speaker 4: When he said that, But what you say, nos is
Speaker 4: I mean he is nots It's his own thing. But
Speaker 4: I would like to ask him this question too. But
Speaker 4: just as as we are saying we are fans, would
Speaker 4: it be Cool g Or or Rock Kim that had
Speaker 4: the most When y'all hear like allmatic.
Speaker 1: Would you say is Cool most influence? No, it's not
Speaker 1: one of the other you know, you know it can't
Speaker 1: be one of the others because once to be one.
Speaker 1: I don't like, no, no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 3: The fact how Rock Kim put his words together with
Speaker 3: intelligence but was still hood.
Speaker 1: That's one.
Speaker 6: Storytelling and all.
Speaker 3: But when it comes to g Rap, where you where
Speaker 3: g Rap said something L Street Blues, you knew what
Speaker 3: he was talking about, and that's how Naves got together.
Speaker 3: So like, I can't say it was one of that,
Speaker 3: I can't say I would take.
Speaker 1: You're making me before we leave. I'm not only texting
Speaker 1: him the question, I'm sitting him in this footage for
Speaker 1: him to respond.
Speaker 6: What makes it official is when Nas and g rapped
Speaker 6: through the joint.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's that's That's how you know that he
Speaker 1: was influenced by That's why I.
Speaker 4: Think Rap had a little bit more influence. You want
Speaker 4: to take the reason why I feel like I take
Speaker 4: my shot too. I feel like you what you're saying too,
Speaker 4: because like what I'm saying when NAS changed the way
Speaker 4: niggas is rhyming. But that's one doing them three syllable
Speaker 4: things like rappers, I'm monkey flipping and what the.
Speaker 1: Musician and flipping the composition I can't. I like scoff

Speaker 3: called Granddaddy, Are you.
Speaker 1: Daddy?
Speaker 5: You?
Speaker 1: You were smooth And I've said this before, but I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say it again. He changed my whole life. He

Speaker 1: stick something in what he said? He said that ship
Speaker 1: right there? I said, I want to be him. Grand there.
Speaker 1: I heard his name and listen to me.
Speaker 3: That's my only thing. It's two things I regret in
Speaker 3: hip hop right now? Look and I'm throwing it right
Speaker 3: back to y'all. I'm trying to make it. They say,
Speaker 3: it's the same exact thing. My mother asked me one day.
Speaker 3: She said, I want to meet I want I want to,
Speaker 3: I want to. She called me, she said, I want
Speaker 3: you to. I want to do something. I want you

Speaker 3: don't rush this at all. I'm like, my you you
Speaker 3: picked low hanging fruit. You know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 3: I got that meets you. Pun Pun dies two weeks later.
Speaker 3: And the only other thing that I regret in hip
Speaker 3: hop right now is I didn't give Big Granddaddy you
Speaker 3: his flowers. I gave him his flowers period, like he
Speaker 3: knows he's my favorite MC, like I feel when when
Speaker 3: he introduced himself, we say I'm glad that you he'd
Speaker 3: be like people like that. You nigga know what you
Speaker 3: be talking about because I always I always did that.
Speaker 3: But those are my two things that co, let's get back.
Speaker 1: We need to hear two influences for you.
Speaker 4: Okay, I ain't gonna stop it too. I'm gonna get three,
Speaker 4: give me three. First, I would start with Rock Kim.
Speaker 4: Rock Kim was like the He was the dude that
Speaker 4: made me be like, man, I want to be a rapper.
Speaker 4: I had already been rhyming and run them seeing all
Speaker 4: the l but rock him when I heard I had
Speaker 4: never heard nobody rap in they in their voice like in.
Speaker 1: That way that he was doing. Did you realize he
Speaker 1: didn't her which is DZ. Realize that I didn't hardcore?
Speaker 4: So hard core and what he was opening my mind up?
Speaker 1: And I didn't.
Speaker 4: I didn't even know some of the stuff he was saying,
Speaker 4: but it just resonated with myself. Rock him, kall Rest
Speaker 4: one one because this dude, like I was like, I
Speaker 4: hadn't even heard what vegetarian was to the point on
Speaker 4: for real, y'all vegan, but I ain't know what vegetarian
Speaker 4: was to Krest and them start talking about blah blah
Speaker 4: blah because like, you know, we're in Chicago, we eating
Speaker 4: but and man, then I got to say Big Daddy
Speaker 4: came because it was something about Caine. I loved the
Speaker 4: similes that he would kick, you know, like you know
Speaker 4: if you all would to eat and feed me dope
Speaker 4: and you know, like something he would say that. I
Speaker 4: was like these punchlines. Craig loved his great crazy. But
Speaker 4: the fourth who actually, like we talked about already, I
Speaker 4: gotta give Nas his because Nas was like and after
Speaker 4: those people that like with the foundation. Nas was the
Speaker 4: one that made me like my age. But I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: this is the level. You got a rhyme, man, you
Speaker 4: gotta be at this level.
Speaker 1: He raised the bar. Yeah, he raised the boss.
Speaker 6: So I got them them. I had to get four.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a chief like you. I gotta throw knives
Speaker 1: in there to.
Speaker 7: Pro I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say James Brown, I'm
Speaker 7: gonna say Big Daddy came.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Molly Ma and Heavy d did Molly
Speaker 1: events sampling?
Speaker 6: Yeah, he sampled records like people.
Speaker 7: I mean, I guess and before Molly came out, people
Speaker 7: were sampling, but like it was done differently. But he
Speaker 7: brought a new procedure.
Speaker 8: The way that it was explained to us by some
Speaker 8: I forgot who told him that he he sampled in
Speaker 8: the in the way that it sounded like the original
Speaker 8: way that djits were looping brakes.
Speaker 1: He brought that now to the modern ages and.
Speaker 7: And did it with precision. Man, That's one of the
Speaker 7: things that I admired about his beast. Anytime, you know,
Speaker 7: I would be right there with my paws button with
Speaker 7: the radio, listening to mister Magic and listening and waiting
Speaker 7: for Molly saying, Yo, I got something No I did
Speaker 7: with Big Daddy, Can Dennis ain't no halfstan?
Speaker 6: God damn is the bridge? Is that a sound or
Speaker 6: is that a record?
Speaker 1: You think? I like that?
Speaker 7: That's that's this record called Scratching. It's an old school
Speaker 7: break beat. And he took the part and said wow
Speaker 7: and made it go backwards.
Speaker 1: Molly.
Speaker 6: I'm a fan just because of that little incident right there.
Speaker 1: I love hip.
Speaker 3: Bridges the ultimate Queen's record, and for him to put
Speaker 3: that sound in it. Whenever I hear that sound, I
Speaker 3: think about queens period.
Speaker 1: You know what's crazy.
Speaker 3: We just had Charlie Chase on here, and I asked,
Speaker 3: Charlie Chase. I was like, because if she says on
Speaker 3: the record, hip hop started out and fought.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, can it be a chance that sh
Speaker 1: just you know, she saw it. This was the park
Speaker 1: it started out basically I'm trying to I'm trying to
Speaker 1: say ship.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Like I always felt like between the brig just
Speaker 7: over and the bridge, I thought they were both gigantic
Speaker 7: records with all this of kars one, you know, doing that,
Speaker 7: and but but that bridge joint stabbed. Y'all, y'all should
Speaker 7: thank Mary for that.
Speaker 1: Think and you don't forget neither. We don't forget this thing. Okay,
Speaker 1: hold on, we're gonna get back to quickly. You gotta
Speaker 1: play them wise up. Oh yeah, we're gonna play them,
Speaker 1: of course. Yeah, I'm gonna ask you, and I'm going
Speaker 1: to ask you. This is both for y'all questions, because
Speaker 1: y'all represent the light skintting delegation in the Brown. Let's
Speaker 1: see what's going on here, Kenjick Lamar.
Speaker 4: Or Drake Man, I'm gonna I'm gonna is he talking
Speaker 4: about the battle or just over whatever you want?
Speaker 6: I mean, Kendrick Lamar is more to to to what
Speaker 6: I love is just in the MC. So I'm gonna
Speaker 6: I'm gonna go with.
Speaker 4: Kenchick by doing a say and this ain't politically correct
Speaker 4: For me to be honest, I feel like at times
Speaker 4: when Drake rhyman, like I heard this eight Am and Charlotte,
Speaker 4: and I was like, still rhyme when he get over
Speaker 4: like he was he was over a certain beasts, And
Speaker 4: I'm like, when he choose to rhyme, he could rhyme.
Speaker 4: But Kendrick Lamar is an MC that I will put
Speaker 4: Like I said, it's one of the top of the
Speaker 4: seasons any era.
Speaker 6: Like if I put him in in eighties, he would
Speaker 6: be one of the greatest.
Speaker 4: If I put him in nineties, he'd be one of
Speaker 4: the greatest, if I put him in this to me,
Speaker 4: he possesses that type of aura and lyrical like your
Speaker 4: skill this point blank like style. I like when people
Speaker 4: can go to different styles too. That ain't that ain't
Speaker 4: always easy? Like to me, that's when you are you
Speaker 4: being practice. You got lyrics, but then you also a
Speaker 4: musician too, because like certain people and I gotta I
Speaker 4: got a theory that I don't know how true it is,
Speaker 4: but I believe that a lot of producers rhyme better
Speaker 4: the beats than some mcs. They just rhythmically when I
Speaker 4: hit pee, when I hit pee on certain stuff. I'm like,
Speaker 4: I say his.
Speaker 1: Rap more than I do. I heard him a new project.
Speaker 4: He's crazy with. But then like I'm saying, like large
Speaker 4: pro tip Q tip for hey, Like I've been on
Speaker 4: songs with producers and I'm like, I like you, yeah,
Speaker 4: is incredible man. And the thing is like I can
Speaker 4: be giving all my MC ship, but it's somebody like Yay,
Speaker 4: I'm on the song with him and the crowd gonna
Speaker 4: say all his lyrics because they just producers know how
Speaker 4: to Yeah, they.
Speaker 6: They just and not over wrap ship.
Speaker 7: Sometimes that comes from making practice, you know, you know,
Speaker 7: making beats all the time and working with artists that.
Speaker 1: But you got to answer this question, like what what
Speaker 1: you get away from? Okay?
Speaker 6: But you know when I'm making beats, I'm trying to
Speaker 6: rap like them.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I'm like to myself and I'm.
Speaker 7: Like, but Drake O kidmar you know, i'mna roll with
Speaker 7: the Gemini even though I love Drake. I'm gonna roll
Speaker 7: with Kendrick Team Kendrick all day and I'm on the
Speaker 7: pimple butterfly.

Speaker 4: Like I gotta let me acknowledge that being from Chicago
Speaker 4: when we saw Ice cubing them hold forty ounces and
Speaker 4: and just being like that was similar to our culture
Speaker 4: New York.
Speaker 1: I mean we I I'm from the South Side. Culture
Speaker 1: was very similar to the same culture.
Speaker 4: And it was a lot of things similar. You know,
Speaker 4: like a lot of our roots come from the South.
Speaker 4: If you check people from l A say, people from Louisiana,
Speaker 4: that's what we're from. Whereas y'all have like a whole
Speaker 4: lot like from Jamaica eighty but you know, from Mahamas
Speaker 4: from Puerto Rico, we didn't have that as much. So
Speaker 4: not being said, I related to n w A point
Speaker 4: blank and they was like dope, and I was like
Speaker 4: straight out of Comptown. The bitch is a bitch ice Cube,
Speaker 4: like I loved all that ship you didn't relate to
Speaker 4: and I said, I did, but I'm very curious. But
Speaker 4: when I heard Wu Tang, I was like, yo, I've
Speaker 4: never heard anything where it's nine mcsne love the right and.
Speaker 1: I love something.
Speaker 4: And each one is a superhero. If we would have
Speaker 4: had like the access we have now when Wu Tang
Speaker 4: came out. And by the way, they got a TV
Speaker 4: show about them on Hulu, so that is already.
Speaker 1: But what they did when I.
Speaker 6: Heard Protect your Neck, Yeah, it's all crazy.
Speaker 1: The Wu Tang man is.
Speaker 4: I mean, they untouchable in certain ways to me, like
Speaker 4: because I have that many mcs, and then you can
Speaker 4: see the growth and like from when you hear protect
Speaker 4: your Neck and you hear ray and ghosts and then
Speaker 4: you hit them on only built for Cuban Link, it's
Speaker 4: a whole other level and you can hear that growth.
Speaker 4: But then you got the genius who was always on
Speaker 4: that old dirty bass is one of the most soul
Speaker 4: for rappers you ever ever. So I'm talking about like
Speaker 4: I don't know about you knowing, but for me, sometimes
Speaker 4: I can get in the booth and I stopped trying
Speaker 4: to wrap the thing the same way I did it
Speaker 4: before rapping. Rapping, I'll be hearing takes the o dB
Speaker 4: doing that ship different.
Speaker 6: And that ship is soul.
Speaker 1: And and and o dB was a person like I
Speaker 1: wrote records for o dB. You did make a goal.
Speaker 1: Listen what Dave had you do it? I don't think
Speaker 1: most of them never really wanted to really, So that's right,
Speaker 1: that's right, because you like somebodody you met, Yeah, because
Speaker 1: he was cocky. I love he trying to take over
Speaker 1: the interview. What's going on? Here's the funny ship. And

Speaker 3: exact opposite. This shirt is very tight. He has a
Speaker 3: choke go on, making the thing show a little bit.
Speaker 1: Sure, you're not exaggerating. He was that tight you already.
Speaker 3: He wanted to be the exact opposite of what was
Speaker 3: going on, but delivered music of what.
Speaker 1: Was going on.
Speaker 3: He and he, ha's when I tell this story, because
Speaker 3: you know, he's humble now now that he's fucking head
Speaker 3: of Louis fucking Baton, he's humble now.
Speaker 1: But let me just tell you something. He wasn't then, okay,
Speaker 1: And he looked at me.
Speaker 3: Because he had I don't want to say I've ever
Speaker 3: been the first person that worked before, because that's not
Speaker 3: the truth. Work for Neptune. Excuse me, that's not the truth.
Speaker 3: They had worked with what what what told no one,
Speaker 3: No one put them actually on the record, and no
Speaker 3: one put them in the forefront. And he looked at
Speaker 3: me and he said, he's a he's when I say
Speaker 3: this story, but I'm gonna say it again. He goes,
Speaker 3: no one's listened to me, but the first person that
Speaker 3: listened to me is gonna go number one.
Speaker 1: And I was, I don't know why I did that.
Speaker 1: That's how in my mind.
Speaker 3: Just let me roll with the story. And I was like,
Speaker 3: I believe, I just believed him. It was like he
Speaker 3: was the exact opposite of me. For the lack of
Speaker 3: a better term, was I always describe it as this,
Speaker 3: and it gets a little weird, but I call the
Speaker 3: beauty and the beast.
Speaker 1: They had nothing like we have nothing else in common.
Speaker 1: Just music. Like that's what I gotta be sometimes, I
Speaker 1: gotta be sometimes like I remember, like me and me
Speaker 1: and me, and for ever been in the studio for
Speaker 1: at least, you know, ten years. Me let me not
Speaker 1: just safe.
Speaker 3: I don't ever remember us ordering the same food. I
Speaker 3: don't ever remember us order doing anything other than music.
Speaker 1: But that's what's so dope, that's what's so double about music. Music.
Speaker 4: Because I've been around so many people that I'll be like, man,
Speaker 4: I would.
Speaker 7: Have sometimes music, deperate and keep it still respectable.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it's a common ground, common ground like pun

Speaker 7: like that, I know the sample.
Speaker 6: I listened to the record. You would never know hear.
Speaker 1: The sample.

Speaker 7: tells you, or unless fire.
Speaker 1: I was listening.
Speaker 6: He told me, he told me what he used. I
Speaker 6: had the record. I had the record but I didn't

Speaker 6: is to me.
Speaker 4: You know, you hear the word consonant, He's a consonment
Speaker 4: MC because he's one of the MC's that I feel
Speaker 4: like had the some of the dopest lyrics like Simile's metaphors.
Speaker 6: His voice is like a voice.
Speaker 4: Is a gift that God only can get, Like Luther
Speaker 4: Van got a voice, like Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin Man,
Speaker 4: Minnie Riffertson. It's a voice. Biggie had a voice. Nas
Speaker 4: got a voice. They both they both got like some mcs.
Speaker 4: I'm like, they don't but they ain't got a voice.
Speaker 4: That's a gift.
Speaker 1: But Biggies was unique.
Speaker 6: Biggies was big Mary.
Speaker 4: But NASA's unique to that little grasping this things like incredible.
Speaker 4: Biggie also is incredible with the stories. And one thing
Speaker 4: that I even though I picked NAS, one thing I
Speaker 4: would say Biggie had over a lot of them, sees
Speaker 4: is he knew how to ride over those commercial beats.
Speaker 1: Yeah and still keep it, keep it and keep a gangster. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you take hypnotize and you put that shirt
Speaker 3: on a different beat, you like he was coming by
Speaker 3: nasty girls.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. He so, I got one
Speaker 1: more chance.
Speaker 4: I got a theory that the dudes, the guys you're
Speaker 4: making descent, they ride the rhythms the best buster.
Speaker 1: That's real, that's true. I'm glad. I'm telling you. I
Speaker 1: got a little theory. I'll be studying.
Speaker 4: This would be like the way they ride the robust
Speaker 4: because the greatest.
Speaker 1: Great because you reggae things of dance music. But the
Speaker 1: reg artists be saying some hard.
Speaker 6: On that rhythm and it all starts well. I mean,

Speaker 4: was talking about the one thing that men we need
Speaker 4: naturally is respect from a woman like like respect for
Speaker 4: feraro from a woman in respect like more than a
Speaker 4: lot of other ship if a woman respect your your.
Speaker 6: Being and who you are and what you say, like
Speaker 6: and we we want that as people.
Speaker 4: Just respect like because you know, lord, everybody can fall
Speaker 4: off at some point, like you know, like because of
Speaker 4: their own it ship.
Speaker 6: But respect is like I might be going through some ship.
Speaker 4: But I'm gonna still give you respect that you deserve
Speaker 4: and and then I'm gonna have to go work on
Speaker 4: my ship.
Speaker 6: But you know, but that's why I say respect.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I said respect.
Speaker 7: I said respect because you know, as a human being
Speaker 7: and as a man, you know, it feels better to
Speaker 7: be respected.
Speaker 1: You feel me.
Speaker 6: Loyalty don't last. You ever been through that. I know
Speaker 6: you've been through that.
Speaker 7: Yeah, So I'm gonna run with respect because you know,
Speaker 7: there's loyal people and then there's not.
Speaker 1: Gotta always weigh the options. But don't you want both? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want both, but you can't happen in the
Speaker 1: quick time of slime. This is the thing that we
Speaker 1: find funny.
Speaker 9: Only time people say both or neither or whatever, But
Speaker 9: when it comes to live to respect, they never want
Speaker 9: to say.
Speaker 1: Both, I would say, I want to say you got
Speaker 1: your shot, relax. I mean both.
Speaker 6: It's good to have there too. Yes, But I always
Speaker 6: think of you know, I always weigh it out.
Speaker 1: We're what do we want? But what we want is both.
Speaker 1: But how the world works, it's different.
Speaker 4: But even to me, like, I feel like I can
Speaker 4: understand when sometimes when some people like don't ain't as loyal,
Speaker 4: like that ain't.
Speaker 1: The way I said.
Speaker 4: I can understand sometimes when people like just like not that.
Speaker 4: I'm like, I'm around a lot of unloyal people, but
Speaker 4: I'm just like everybody have faults. But respect is something
Speaker 4: that's like I can naturally give to any human being.
Speaker 1: A stranger. It's a stranger, and I get respect.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I think to me, respect for me is
Speaker 4: like something that when you give it to a human being,
Speaker 4: it just make the world better. Loyalty sometimes it's an expectation.
Speaker 4: What if somebody ain't loyal to you and you like, okay,
Speaker 4: this first ain't loyal to you, Do you turn on them?
Speaker 4: Do you be like boom boom boom, that meaning you
Speaker 4: don't have to. So I'm saying like, loyalty is something
Speaker 4: that you expected from that person. But respect is something
Speaker 4: that you're demanded from another person that you like, Okay, yo,
Speaker 4: this is what I just want as a human being,
Speaker 4: And it's like taking. I mean, you could want loyalty
Speaker 4: as a human being too and say like I deserve this,
Speaker 4: but I understand. For me, I understand when certain people
Speaker 4: don't have the loyalty at certain times.
Speaker 6: And and you know, it's just my thought. That's just
Speaker 6: the things that I've experienced.
Speaker 1: I don't and I think I think I gotta take it.
Speaker 1: I don't. I wanted both.
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm like naive, maybe I'm stupid, Like you know
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, Like I actually demand both because I
Speaker 3: present both.
Speaker 4: It's the right thing to do, you know what I'm
Speaker 4: saying both, like like let me move on. Okay, no,
Speaker 4: but no, but I like that. I like what you're saying,
Speaker 4: and that's why we should demand that from I like that.
Speaker 3: Should be stand there both like we're kings. We're doing
Speaker 3: some fucking phenomenal ship. We we're helping other people, whether
Speaker 3: they know it or not or And DMX sat in
Speaker 3: that same seat and d MX said, he never this
Speaker 3: is a rack rack rapper anymore, because that one rack
Speaker 3: rapper is feeding sixteen families. And when he said that,
Speaker 3: I was like, holy shit, I don't want to this
Speaker 3: nobody no more like I want to like help but
Speaker 3: also demand a little bit demand.
Speaker 1: Like ain't all phenomenal? Ye, ain't none a phenomenal? And
Speaker 1: I just the man some phenomenal. Yeah, you should be
Speaker 1: in it.
Speaker 3: And for me just just it's all simple little things
Speaker 3: I'm asking for. It's just be loyal to me. Would
Speaker 3: be loyal to you much and expect me and I'm
Speaker 3: gonna respect you. I would love folk simple. It's actually
Speaker 3: not even one.
Speaker 1: I would love both.
Speaker 6: I love both.
Speaker 1: It's not it's not, but I'm it can't be reality.
Speaker 4: Like I feel like where we're at right now, we
Speaker 4: are like it's a lot of loyal see and respect.
Speaker 4: It's both both, like we like even in every element,
Speaker 4: I feel the loyalty in respect, But I also get
Speaker 4: room for somebody that like, they might not feel as
Speaker 4: loyal because sometimes people have been through certain ship and
Speaker 4: they might not have trust and they just got trust
Speaker 4: issues and they like, I can't be loyal to you
Speaker 4: until you show them certain things. So like for me,
Speaker 4: loyalty is one of them things where It's like I
Speaker 4: understand you might. Man, we all been through some shit,
Speaker 4: so a person could be like, man, I don't I
Speaker 4: don't trust that person, so they loyalty might not be there.
Speaker 4: But to respect the person, it's just like I don't
Speaker 4: got to know you or not.
Speaker 1: Yo, this is p Rock.
Speaker 4: I respect him for who he is as a as
Speaker 4: a as a producer, as an artist, super legend, legend,
Speaker 4: but then as a human being, just as a man.
Speaker 4: And that don't take a lot. You ain't gotta have
Speaker 4: no type of interaction to respect somebody.
Speaker 6: And that's for me. But I don't know that's how
Speaker 6: I feel about it, but I would like both.
Speaker 1: So let me ask you Pete an album.
Speaker 3: Before we started the interview, you know, my boy Chris Atlas, yeah,
Speaker 3: asked me, you know, to make sure we were careful
Speaker 3: with this subject.
Speaker 1: Yea, And I want to be careful with but because
Speaker 1: I know not ask whatever you want, because you know, we're.
Speaker 3: Doing a lot of albums and we don't see you
Speaker 3: and see us smooth. Yeah, if if we would take
Speaker 3: this out the interview, if you want, no, no, that's
Speaker 3: all good, not good. I just you know, because I
Speaker 3: got to be kind of like a little bit media
Speaker 3: and like just asks like, I'm gonna tell you that's
Speaker 3: not negative if no, no, no, not negative at all.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say that he's the best talent I've ever
Speaker 3: came across in my whole.
Speaker 1: You guys created magic. Man.
Speaker 7: I mean, I've never heard a guy rap like this.
Speaker 7: I never heard a voice like this. And even we
Speaker 7: shared great times together, don't get it all fucked up now,
Speaker 7: Like we've had our good times, you know what, And
Speaker 7: then you know, just like life, people have ups and
Speaker 7: sometimes sometimes you know, when we were in the negative zone,
Speaker 7: we tend to go like this, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 7: And then what we would wish for each other is growth.
Speaker 7: But when one is growing and one isn't, then then
Speaker 7: it's just still uneven. Even now, it's just like, come on, man,
Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying. It doesn't it shouldn't never
Speaker 7: be like this ever. We should still be together, you know.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying.
Speaker 6: But some things you know that I can't really tell
Speaker 6: the whole public.
Speaker 7: But but but you know, certain things happen and in
Speaker 7: in a in a partnership, that's that just can't be
Speaker 7: you know, And and people don't won't understand. You know,
Speaker 7: I don't want to be the only one speaking on
Speaker 7: someone who's not here.
Speaker 6: You see what I'm saying. But I wish him the
Speaker 6: best in life. I respect that.
Speaker 1: Just so you know, I.
Speaker 3: Don't know if you even know if man, but people
Speaker 3: think that we're blocking people think what.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I know you know this rumor. The rumor is,
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know that.
Speaker 8: And it's not just him, it's a lot of people
Speaker 8: that people think you were saying that.
Speaker 1: He can't come on drink chats. Why I wouldn't you
Speaker 1: know what's funny about this? Did you hear this room?
Speaker 1: I didn't hear. He needs to be Yes, Yes, we
Speaker 1: would love to.
Speaker 7: Have him talk to talk about his life and what
Speaker 7: our relationship was. And you know, because I don't wish
Speaker 7: no bad on him, you know what I'm saying. But
Speaker 7: I just I just know that our personalities don't mix,
Speaker 7: you know, And I've experienced.
Speaker 3: Some growth with myself. I'm on another plateau and that's it.
Speaker 1: And you both deserve to be celebrating this. Records that
Speaker 1: you guys call.
Speaker 8: Timeless Classics, that are probably one of the best hip
Speaker 8: hop records ever made.
Speaker 7: You know how many years passed by that. This is
Speaker 7: what hurts me the most is that we don't celebrate
Speaker 7: our anniversaries for the records that we made that touched people.
Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying, timeless records that That's why
Speaker 7: I wish for healing for him. You see what I'm saying,
Speaker 7: so we can at least have grown men conversations, you know.
Speaker 6: What I mean.
Speaker 1: And the reason why I ask that, Let me just
Speaker 1: ask that. No, I'm glad you asked, very sensitive. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but let me just tell you something and me a poem.
Speaker 3: We actually do speed, but we don't celebrate our anniversaries neither.
Speaker 1: And it's just.
Speaker 5: Or me.
Speaker 7: It might look like it's me, you know, people gonna
Speaker 7: say it's you, people gonna say it's him, you know,
Speaker 7: but they really just in a place where they don't
Speaker 7: know what's going on. Yes, And that's why I just
Speaker 7: let it be and I don't say nothing. And when
Speaker 7: you ask me, I'm gonna tell you the real Yeah.
Speaker 1: Because I suffer from the same thing like I like,
Speaker 1: I think the twenty fifth anniversary of the War Report
Speaker 1: and Me and components should have been celebrated, should have
Speaker 1: been celebrated to celebrated. I don't remember what it exactly
Speaker 1: was for my thing, but so for every group, Like
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like I understand, like I
Speaker 1: understand your play. Like sometimes it's growth, it's growth.
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. Like that's the number one thing.
Speaker 4: That's the one thing we kind of I mean, we
Speaker 4: were young. We were so young when we were like
Speaker 4: putting out reckets. Think about when you put out to
Speaker 4: your first record, when you put out your first record,
Speaker 4: how old you are when you first DJ Like how
Speaker 4: old we were so like to grow up, Like we
Speaker 4: understand life in different ways. And like I look at
Speaker 4: my mother. It's people that she grew up with. The
Speaker 4: some she connected with still their lifetime friends and some
Speaker 4: are not. And but it's still y'all still shared some
Speaker 4: important moments together that you got to honor and respect.
Speaker 1: And I love that y'all doing that.
Speaker 3: I love I loved me and Paul excuse me, we're
Speaker 3: working off other than the business ship.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like that more, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But let me ask you something. One of the other
Speaker 1: most biggest arguments on Drink Chaps was when we sat Kanye.
Speaker 4: I know, man, we're on the same vibe you keep saying.
Speaker 4: I keep saying, you said, I knew you were about
Speaker 4: to say something. And the democratic ship that he was.
Speaker 13: Talking about, I said, I said, comn Collin Bali and
Speaker 13: Yay said, it's so fast and he did you see
Speaker 13: how he reacted?
Speaker 1: And boy, when I tell you, I know, we got
Speaker 1: to talk about it. The backpack. Backpack community was so mad,
Speaker 1: mucking paring y'all because they knew that they was gonna
Speaker 1: make either.
Speaker 4: Do not.
Speaker 1: But they're very respectful backpack. They're not.
Speaker 9: Community right there, you making on the backpack. I get
Speaker 9: I get it, but it's not a realm. The underground.
Speaker 8: Maybe independent, maybe I give you that vary conscious maybe
Speaker 8: like you can put it in all together.
Speaker 1: You're going all types of name When when you heard.
Speaker 4: That, well, people hit me. It was like just first
Speaker 4: of all, that interview. Obviously y'all did work with that
Speaker 4: interview because that ship got everywhere.
Speaker 9: Got Yeah, the first interview, that's the problem. The first one, yeah,
Speaker 9: that's amazing, the second one, that's.
Speaker 1: Amazing about that too. I'm talking about the person. The
Speaker 1: first was great.
Speaker 4: One was great, and people hit me and was like, yo,
Speaker 4: you know they compare you and to live, and I
Speaker 4: was like, you know, I just was like, yo, hey,
Speaker 4: I ain't gonna lie. I mean, I love they said
Speaker 4: what he said. I I live my guy and he
Speaker 4: dope a dope rackords dope. M see as simple as that.
Speaker 4: But I man, you know, to hear from somebody being
Speaker 4: like yo, no, no, no no. But you know, I
Speaker 4: got also respected that that Qui put y Choir had
Speaker 4: yay on the on the tour when me and gangst
Speaker 4: I was on so.
Speaker 1: But but I told him in that I told him
Speaker 1: this is the scene that puts you on.
Speaker 4: But he gave his true opinion. So I like when
Speaker 4: people get a true artistic opinion. I don't take that personal,
Speaker 4: like when people come up to me. People come up
Speaker 4: to me and be like, yo, I like you as actor,
Speaker 4: I don't like your raps like that blah blah blah
Speaker 4: like and I ain't mad. I ain't mad because Yo,
Speaker 4: this is art. You ain't got to like if I
Speaker 4: put it. If I if I cook up some food
Speaker 4: for you and you don't like the food, that I
Speaker 4: can subjective subjective, man, I can't force that on you.
Speaker 6: Not so so anyway, when when I wouldn't.
Speaker 1: You know, I love it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, spoke his mind. Obviously, y'all had him in the
Speaker 4: right place to speak his mind.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right here, right here.
Speaker 6: But I ain't gonna lie.
Speaker 4: Sometimes I'd be like, I want to be compared to
Speaker 4: to some of some other mcs beyond the conscious ms.
Speaker 4: I know y'all probably think of me a common backpack consciously,
Speaker 4: but I want to be compared to. I want to
Speaker 4: be compared, but I'm working on it. I'm working on
Speaker 4: my craft to be compared with you. Like, oh ship,
Speaker 4: I heard this comedy pet rock album. We got to
Speaker 4: put him in another in another status fere like you know,
Speaker 4: like meaning yo, I can understand why I got classified
Speaker 4: with with with with just backpack, but I feel like
Speaker 4: even from what I've what I've delivered as an artist
Speaker 4: is different than just just backpack because the bitch and
Speaker 4: you ain't backpacked for niggas or or if I talk
Speaker 4: about just I be talking about fucking bras and certain
Speaker 4: stuff and I.
Speaker 6: Said club, but that ain't backpacked.
Speaker 4: But I feel like even even for choir, for most step,
Speaker 4: for any of my family than my family for any
Speaker 4: of them, like we get we can put in the
Speaker 4: box and it's like, oh, this is what this is
Speaker 4: all they do. But it's like I always was like, yo,
Speaker 4: I got more than that, y'all niggas.
Speaker 1: But you felt you were backpack. Sorry could but you
Speaker 1: felt that you was glumped into the backpack.
Speaker 4: Oh for sure, bro, Because the thing is that that term,
Speaker 4: that term.
Speaker 1: Came up with the rugous era Ruus Ruckers Ruckus brought
Speaker 1: in that that that backpack terminal.
Speaker 8: Nor backpack that I feel like even this this even
Speaker 8: though you've say some hardcore.
Speaker 1: Ship on there.
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, but but but I'm saying you had to
Speaker 6: really listen.
Speaker 4: I wasn't reaching some cats that was really understanding like okay, nigga,
Speaker 4: he's just a backpack.
Speaker 1: So well, let me let me ask you. I'm sorry
Speaker 1: to cut a backpack underground to sit it backpack back then, yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel I feel like that. I feel like even
Speaker 1: I feel like if you actually back it was a movement.
Speaker 1: Use small backpack.
Speaker 4: Come on, your backpack was a little and really because
Speaker 4: because you could be underground.
Speaker 1: M o P was underground because you know, I took
Speaker 1: offensive the backpack terminology. Remember a bunk, shorty, because they
Speaker 1: were it was a silent it was it wasn't a sound. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it wasn't a sound.
Speaker 6: It wasn't It wasn't even like a nerse.
Speaker 1: It wasn't a sound everything, but it wasn't a sound.
Speaker 6: It wasn't a sound though. Yeah, but it wasn't a sound.
Speaker 4: But think about this, like at one point it became
Speaker 4: like all these backpack rappers and that was just like
Speaker 4: and the category that that who fell under that was
Speaker 4: most death to live quality common like.
Speaker 1: You start doing records, doing rockets.
Speaker 4: But but but I'm saying though, the point I'm making
Speaker 4: is it was like, man, it's separated ship.
Speaker 1: And honestly, the.
Speaker 6: One person I saw that brought it together was Kanye.
Speaker 4: I remember going to s o BS and seeing that
Speaker 4: Nigga performed and he and I saw niggas were backpacked
Speaker 4: throwing up the fella they had.
Speaker 1: I was like, he changed, he changed the idea, change
Speaker 1: the definition.
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: But but the underground wasn't the same as black pack.
Speaker 4: The underground went the same as backpack because under because because.
Speaker 1: M P was under Man when he first came out,
Speaker 1: was all talking about underground. I'm the underground.
Speaker 6: Underground was more dirt like grime and slide.
Speaker 1: But most considered hip hop was underground, more underground, Backpack
Speaker 1: was more but but but but Shorty and the War
Speaker 1: of the Backpack.
Speaker 8: They were but if you think about it in terms
Speaker 8: of hip hop, they were top tier when they came out.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but they weren't known even though they wore a backpack,
Speaker 4: they weren't known as backpack right, Like you know, like
Speaker 4: backpack started feeling like a certain thing where it was
Speaker 4: like people trying to say nerdy rap.
Speaker 1: It was.
Speaker 4: It was nerdy conscious conscious.
Speaker 1: I was conscious more than conscious, conscious, like and like
Speaker 1: we are part of this almost like everybody. It was crazy.
Speaker 1: And some of the niggas was never vegans. And some
Speaker 1: of the niggas you know, like.

Speaker 4: Some niggas smacking niggas when you say something.
Speaker 8: Somebody conscious rape the most gigs up because I ever
Speaker 8: met in my life.
Speaker 1: So you're telling me some of the conscious rappers work,
Speaker 1: most did most didn't know. We got off that point.
Speaker 1: Don't press, like, don't don't think they come on press.

Speaker 15: Shot up, show people, supers, show people.
Speaker 1: Let the basis.
Speaker 3: So you'm saying sounds so hard, you know, why is
Speaker 3: it so dope? It's exactly how you described it. It's
Speaker 3: the nineties energy, yes, right, but it's right now, yeah, right,
Speaker 3: fucking we adult, We adult, man.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 4: We were like, we've experienced certain things and we ain't
Speaker 4: trying to be like, yo, we're nineteen, right, and but
Speaker 4: the spirit of what we experienced and what we created young,
Speaker 4: it's always in us.
Speaker 1: And like that music is there. So it's officially not
Speaker 1: out yet right yet. Man.
Speaker 4: If I don't kick rhymes, i'm mc let me say
Speaker 4: I said, let's I said what I said?
Speaker 1: I said?
Speaker 6: I said, Holy ground and pillars.
Speaker 4: Lord willis drug dealers, monks with keys, the Goriller, Chicago Illa,
Speaker 4: some no dealer, rich costs, fulfillers, parents trying to get
Speaker 4: their kids to eighteen so they willers. Youngkins is restless
Speaker 4: investments investors. My man ain't from Dallas, but you know
Speaker 4: where the text is. Hold them, my poker face is golden.
Speaker 4: Hold them, My poker face is golden pedigree of a
Speaker 4: legacy that stolen why it is like the old man
Speaker 4: with food in his bed and when he cried freedom.
Speaker 4: It's jews in his tiars, blues in the beers outside,
Speaker 4: in the fierce a slew for the truth.
Speaker 6: It's clues in the years.
Speaker 4: I unrude the fears so that I could get bizz
Speaker 4: like the diabolical and do the improbable, that anything's possible
Speaker 4: ills but it's logical touched by black angels, so you
Speaker 4: can feel the molecule.
Speaker 3: Damn.
Speaker 9: Yeah, take you back to you said, you're not you
Speaker 9: grown man, You're not nineteen no more.
Speaker 1: Hold were you when you did this album?
Speaker 6: I was nineteen. I was nineteen when I did.
Speaker 1: Can I bring.
Speaker 8: That style, that flow style that you have on there?
Speaker 8: When you were doing that? Where did that come from?
Speaker 8: And when did you say I'm not doing that no more?
Speaker 1: It was all influenced. It was influences of Tribe.
Speaker 4: Lea's a New School, Charlie Brown, just me thinking about
Speaker 4: James Brown, all like, just trying to think of something
Speaker 4: that was creative and free to be uniquely you, uniquely me,
Speaker 4: And it sounded too close to what was going on.
Speaker 4: So I started to develop my own you know what
Speaker 4: I'm saying, Like, that's why probably people didn't respond to
Speaker 4: that album because Charlie Brown had already did the hot.
Speaker 1: All that shit. You know, he was did that.
Speaker 6: So I just just so I was like that, ain't
Speaker 6: that ain't unique?
Speaker 1: So you think it wasn't unique? You think it wasn't
Speaker 1: received as unique your style there.
Speaker 6: No, I wasn't received as unique. I think what was
Speaker 6: unique was that I was from Chicago.
Speaker 4: Some Chicago ship, but the style, some of the styles
Speaker 4: was unique, but not that high pitch ship. But that
Speaker 4: ship wasn't unique because Charlie Brown did it, and like,
Speaker 4: you know, I got to give it up for that,
Speaker 4: like that I ain't. I ain't gonna like like that
Speaker 4: was one of the influences. So but eventually, like I
Speaker 4: listened to young dudes sometimes and they I'll be like,
Speaker 4: I can tell you listen to Jake Cole.
Speaker 6: I can tell you listen, right, I tell you.
Speaker 1: But then you eventually hear like, oh, development to your
Speaker 1: own so and that's all of us. So well, that's
Speaker 1: how we all came.
Speaker 6: So that I hadn't developed yet, and that's why I think.
Speaker 8: You know, so when you finally feel like you dropped
Speaker 8: that is, did you drop sense off of common sense?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 6: That was just because I was getting sued by these
Speaker 6: niggas that was in California.
Speaker 1: Really, I don't know what happened.
Speaker 4: That these niggas had the name common Sense. There was
Speaker 4: a reggae band. It was a black white, black white
Speaker 4: Chinese man.
Speaker 1: Everybody killers just make them up two minutes ago and
Speaker 1: there was reggae.
Speaker 6: And I was like, what the fuck y'all suing me?
Speaker 4: I ain't know, I ain't no good lawyers, and they
Speaker 4: like they came out like yo, we're suing your ass
Speaker 4: for the name common Sense. And I was like what
Speaker 4: Just because because I used to up had just come out.
Speaker 4: I had a quote from Biggie. You men, we used
Speaker 4: to get quotes from other to be like, yo, he's dope.
Speaker 4: Biggie said, yeah, I wish he was from Brooklyn. I
Speaker 4: was like, oh my god. And as soon as I
Speaker 4: came out and I used to love him. And it
Speaker 4: was the first time I met Nas, and I remember
Speaker 4: the exact words now.
Speaker 6: I said to me, He said, keep doing what you're doing.
Speaker 6: And I was like, damn, that's.
Speaker 1: Nas, like you know this, And I was like, you
Speaker 1: got a little man crushed on nos.
Speaker 4: Like like.
Speaker 1: What we do whoever you you meet, Prince, You're like, okay,
Speaker 1: all right, it's real listen.
Speaker 4: But I was like, man, I'm trying to establish myself
Speaker 4: as the MC and unique wow and be like so
Speaker 4: you know when I got certain respect from different people.
Speaker 4: That's why y'all talked about something and I was like, damn,
Speaker 4: I remember moving to New York and that changed my life.
Speaker 4: You were talking about I moved to New York from
Speaker 4: Chicago in like ninety eight, and when you talked about
Speaker 4: ninety eight, that's that. Yeah, it meant something to me
Speaker 4: because it was like the time moved in New York.
Speaker 4: I remember Pete came to the video we did for
Speaker 4: with Lauren Hill LAWNG Hill, and it was like I
Speaker 4: was in the I was around some of my pis
Speaker 4: or people that I looked up to, not just my pis.
Speaker 4: But that's how I was able to start connecting on
Speaker 4: different things, like just being around, like being available, Like
Speaker 4: because being in Chicago, niggas you out of sight, you
Speaker 4: out of mind. But if I'm like, oh Pete, what's up,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna come to the studio too, Pete might be like, Yo,
Speaker 4: I want you on this song with Nori and Big
Speaker 4: Pun and Big Pun come bro.
Speaker 1: I think about that ship.
Speaker 6: I think about that ship.
Speaker 4: That shouldt means something to bro to my spirit, real
Speaker 4: to my spirit.
Speaker 3: When I seen you yesterday and then I watched everything
Speaker 3: because you got to realize I've seen you at the
Speaker 3: next game and he's literally where you know this is.
Speaker 3: This is my my favorite camera guy, slash hater. Only
Speaker 3: even sports come to sports, but you were literally like

Speaker 3: so crazy because I'm like, yo, I did a record
Speaker 3: with me comment and Punt, and I'm going to interview
Speaker 3: comment and Pete produce it. And then Joe is saying,
Speaker 3: you see coming over there. You want me to hook
Speaker 3: you all up, and I'm like I'm already hook I'm like,
Speaker 3: wait a minute, Pun, I mean Joe is pun. Oh yeah,

Speaker 3: I'm like, holy ship, that's why everyone's.
Speaker 1: Looking like you was nervous. I was like, I'm not.
Speaker 1: I wasn't nervous at all. I was just looking at
Speaker 1: guard work.
Speaker 11: Guard was working yesterday, So I was just like, you

Speaker 3: I'm sorry cause I know you ain't got to say
Speaker 3: something and let you say it, but I'm looking at

Speaker 3: Chris Atlas, who is one of the motherfucking loyalists, realist
Speaker 3: people in this motherfucking game.
Speaker 1: He deserves his flower. Chris, ya say that risk listeners
Speaker 1: coming Cornerstone days, many soul days.
Speaker 3: Motherfucker. And when I was mad that Timmy boy, he
Speaker 3: helped me down.
Speaker 1: He was like, I'm mad. I tell you boy too.
Speaker 1: But I really really.
Speaker 3: Appreciate you two brothers, man, I really appreciate you two
Speaker 3: brothers taking your time out to be paused with each other.
Speaker 3: And what you know, because you got to say pause
Speaker 3: it you really don't have to. Yeah, but you know
Speaker 3: what I'm saying because I love hip hop, man, I
Speaker 3: really really really love hip hop.
Speaker 1: I want to.
Speaker 3: I want to always salute hip hop. And when I
Speaker 3: know YouTube brothers did this album and we got sent
Speaker 3: we got personally sent a link.
Speaker 1: I'm si ship just one day, let me just tell
Speaker 1: you something.
Speaker 3: And we do this all the time, like like you
Speaker 3: know people you know, even at least the Keys, this
Speaker 3: album earlier and our management did comment on hers, but
Speaker 3: this is the first time they sent it.
Speaker 1: And was like, Yo, did y'all listen.
Speaker 3: Because this is hip fucking hot that you made and comment,
Speaker 3: I wanna, you know, give it to you because I'm
Speaker 3: not giving it to both of y'all.
Speaker 1: Book.
Speaker 3: What I'm saying is, what I'm saying is you could
Speaker 3: have been like, let me make a pop recordar let
Speaker 3: me do this, and no, it's exactly what you guys said.
Speaker 1: It's nineties now, yeah, that's all. Yeah, Now that's a
Speaker 1: good way of saying it. I feel like I give
Speaker 1: that yo.
Speaker 6: That because we needed someone that heard it to tell
Speaker 6: it to.
Speaker 1: Yes, so thank you. It's dope man.
Speaker 3: So so and by the way, like I said, I'm
Speaker 3: playing I was playing around by saying I'm bootlegging it.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. We all heard it and
Speaker 1: was like, what the fuck like this ship is.
Speaker 3: I appreciate y'all for for not forgetting but then still remembering.
Speaker 3: I don't know if that made sense, but what I'm
Speaker 3: saying is it's exactly what you said. It's not then it's.
Speaker 1: Then energy the energy, but it's now moment right, everything
Speaker 1: is new to now. But you're bringing that energy.
Speaker 3: We could tell the message is Martin and Malcolm, but
Speaker 3: it's now that's happening.
Speaker 1: We need we need a leader.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 1: We can't live we can't live in you can't live
Speaker 1: in no more out here.
Speaker 6: It's the youngins.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 3: We have to reintroduce ourselves to these youngins. And so
Speaker 3: it's important that you know, I make music this way
Speaker 3: they could relate to awsome, but it still gives us
Speaker 3: that feel that we missed.
Speaker 4: Like ah, but the truth is like the purity of
Speaker 4: what what p rock creates is like it feels a
Speaker 4: space that like we don't get in hip hop a lot.
Speaker 4: And when I when I hear the music and I'm like, damn,
Speaker 4: this is just sample. But it's like, man, this don't
Speaker 4: have an age to it. When I was listening to
Speaker 4: Michael Jackson, I wasn't thinking about like the twenty five years.
Speaker 4: But when I was listening to Stevie Wonder, how did
Speaker 4: this July was the first TV that was the first
Speaker 4: ob my own Stevie Wonder.

Speaker 1: tell Illuminati.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell you I sat across from Stevie Wonder,
Speaker 4: and I'm telling you all this for real.

Speaker 4: and we was in the studio and here it was
Speaker 4: just talking.
Speaker 6: It was just lunch.

Speaker 4: I was sitting there first of all, like, damn, I'm
Speaker 4: sitting here with Stevie Wonder. This is me and Stevie Wonder.
Speaker 4: But I also was like I heard those rumors like
Speaker 4: Stevie Wander could see, but he not one moment did
Speaker 4: he do something that made me feel like he could see,
Speaker 4: Like the man case you.
Speaker 1: Said you had lunch with him, just you went, but
Speaker 1: how did he eat? You can't see like you can feel.
Speaker 1: Can't you feel that you can feel? You like he plays?
