Speaker 4: way back and get your opinion.
Speaker 5: We talk about time, about a life in different twists
Speaker 5: and turns and whatnot regards to which way you could go.
Speaker 5: I know, back in your day, you dropped out of
Speaker 5: high school, right, and you and and and you you
Speaker 5: ran into some trouble a little bit with the law,
Speaker 5: and all of a sudden, then you went to culinary school,
Speaker 5: I believe, right, and and then you met you met
Speaker 5: Chuck D. And then from meeting Chuck D, everything kind
Speaker 5: of went on to public enemy fame and whatnot. So
Speaker 5: isn't it crazy looking back in those days that you know,
Speaker 5: one wrong turn or if you didn't get in trouble
Speaker 5: and you didn't go to culinary school, you may never
Speaker 5: met Chuck, You may never be where yet today. So
Speaker 5: isn't it crazy looking back those third forty fifty years ago?
Speaker 5: And my God, like, look what happened in my life
Speaker 5: on the company's turns I took.
Speaker 6: Hey, well, let me tell you like this, man, You know,
Speaker 6: every day is going to always be a life learning
Speaker 6: lesson man, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: And the past is.
Speaker 6: Responsible for our future, you know what I'm saying, in
Speaker 6: the whole nine And I thank God that he let
Speaker 6: me get through a lot of the things in my
Speaker 6: past so that way I can have this bright future
Speaker 6: right now that I got, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: And the only thing right now that we got to
Speaker 6: look forward to is everything that's in front of us.
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, Everything that's in the back
Speaker 6: of us. Hey, we can't look forward to that because
Speaker 6: it's the back of us, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: So I just thank God for the blessings man that
Speaker 6: he gave me from then all the way up until
Speaker 6: right now.
Speaker 2: Is I'm on the phone with you, guys.
Speaker 8: What is it about?
Speaker 3: I mean, you've always had this connection I mean by
Speaker 3: definition with time? Is I mean was that I mean?
Speaker 3: And that you know yesterday is dead last? You know,
Speaker 3: whatever happened, you know, that's that's that's the end of
Speaker 3: this notion. You know, we've got a limited amount of time.
Speaker 3: But it's not that we have a limited amount of time.
Speaker 3: It's that we waste so much of it. But obviously,
Speaker 3: symbolically and substantively, you've always had that relationship or at
Speaker 3: least that deeper understanding.
Speaker 8: Where the hell did that come from?
Speaker 2: Well, honestly, it came from God to me, you know
Speaker 2: what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: You know, when I started wearing this clock, you know
Speaker 6: what I'm saying, a lot of people was asking me
Speaker 6: the reason why. So I made up my own significance,
Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. And time is the most
Speaker 6: important element that we have in our life. We can't
Speaker 6: afford to waste none of it, and as the minute
Speaker 6: hand goes around, we have to use each second to
Speaker 6: our best value. You know, time brought us in and yes,
Speaker 6: time is going to take us out. And I always
Speaker 6: be saying I'm clocking. I'm clocking. That means I'm paying attention,
Speaker 6: so you can't. Didn't get fast on me because I
Speaker 6: know what.
Speaker 2: Time it is.
Speaker 1: You know, you do yours with the ice and some
Speaker 1: more ship.
Speaker 7: I had no idea, but I went ahead and I
Speaker 7: put that motherfucking clock right there, that infinite that time.
Speaker 7: You can see it right there, that's the infinite time.
Speaker 7: Like you know, I mean, I thought about it from
Speaker 7: a situation where you know, I mean, life goes uh
Speaker 7: uh time. You know what, life stops, you know what I mean,
Speaker 7: at the end of the day, at the end of
Speaker 7: the day, all our life it stopped. But time that
Speaker 7: shit continues. And this is a continuing, continuous clock that
Speaker 7: I got here on my neck to remind me of that.
Speaker 7: So while I'm here, you feel me though, I try
Speaker 7: to maximize you know what I mean, every minute to
Speaker 7: every second, to every hour that I have to the
Speaker 7: maximum capacity that I have in it. And I try
Speaker 7: to live that mother to the fullest. And I ain't know,
Speaker 7: you know, I mean, it's crazy that you know you
Speaker 7: got here in front of me, even though you feel
Speaker 7: me though, Man, spoke, I appreciate you spoke for you know,

Speaker 2: he Swifty?
Speaker 6: Get it right, King Swifty, flavor flamist, King of all
Speaker 6: the Swifties, King of all the Swifties.
Speaker 7: Man, you know you gotta get Taylor Swift and hit
Speaker 7: him with a yeah bay.
Speaker 2: Ye me.
Speaker 6: I went up to Taylor Swift and the Grammys. I said,
Speaker 6: ain't Taylor, do you know? Because now I've been supporting
Speaker 6: you real hard. Do you know your fan base called
Speaker 6: me King Swifty? She said, I know, Yeah, you know
Speaker 6: what I'm saying.
Speaker 7: I went, I went about King Swifty. You understand what
Speaker 7: I'm talking about.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I went to see her show in Hamburg too.
Speaker 6: Man, she blew that shit out the water Man and
Speaker 6: she gave me a chout out from the stage.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
Speaker 2: I love Taylor Swift. Man. You know her lyrics? Man,
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying is real.
Speaker 6: She she writes about a lot of the things that
Speaker 6: she's that she's been through, you know what I'm saying
Speaker 6: in the Hall nine, and and she keeps it real,
Speaker 6: you know, with a fan base. So that's why I
Speaker 6: support her big time.
Speaker 3: Speaking of keeping I mean obviously your music, aside from
Speaker 3: the music itself, the movement that was so much part
Speaker 3: of the music, the authenticity behind it and calling things,
Speaker 3: calling balls and strikes.
Speaker 8: On racial justice, social justice.
Speaker 3: I mean, was that intentional or is that just a
Speaker 3: byproduct of just you're just being freely expressive, or were
Speaker 3: you guys trying to really set a tone and tenor
Speaker 3: for social change.
Speaker 2: Well, see, one thing that we always was about, you
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: With our music, we write about a lot of the
Speaker 6: problems that was going on in the neighborhood. But then
Speaker 6: within the same record, we try to come up with
Speaker 6: the solution to the problems, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: And you know, there was a lot going on that
Speaker 6: we want to do whole world to know about.
Speaker 2: I stayed public endem me was.
Speaker 6: The CNN of the streets, you know, That's what I
Speaker 6: call us the CNN of the streets. You know what
Speaker 6: I'm saying, And we put out a lot of social
Speaker 6: awareness you know out there.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. My partner, Chuck D. Let
Speaker 2: me tell you.
Speaker 6: Something, Manason, why I back him is because all of
Speaker 6: the records that we ever put out, nobody could ever
Speaker 6: prove Nobody ever proved Chuck wrong.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: And one thing that I can say about my partner,
Speaker 6: Chuck Deal's a very very smart, crazy smart individual man.
Speaker 6: Before he writes the record, he does his research first,
Speaker 6: then he writes about it, then we put it out.
Speaker 6: So that's why nobody could prove them wrong. So, hey,
Speaker 6: you only gonna stand by what's right, you know what
Speaker 6: I'm saying. But just to let y'all know, even if
Speaker 6: my partner, Chuck D was wrong anyway, I would still
Speaker 6: stand by him anyway.
Speaker 2: I love that.
Speaker 3: But you think the music, I mean the music today,
Speaker 3: I mean it's interesting you prescribe not just the problem,
Speaker 3: identify problem. And I love the CNN of the streets. Man,
Speaker 3: that's a great way to describe it. But this idea
Speaker 3: of then focusing on the solution and focusing on some
Speaker 3: positive change, is that still you think that's reflected today's
Speaker 3: music as much as it was back then.
Speaker 6: Let me say this because you know, you know, today
Speaker 6: is a lot different from today, is a lot different
Speaker 6: from when we first started putting out records and shit,
Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying in the Whole nine. And
Speaker 6: you know, back in the day when we was putting
Speaker 6: out our records, they had messages to them. You know
Speaker 6: what I'm saying in the Whole nine. Today you got
Speaker 6: a lot of people just making rap records. And there's
Speaker 6: a lot of good rap records going on out there
Speaker 6: right now, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: But today today's records is.
Speaker 6: Mostly you know, bragging and boasting and shit, guns, drugs, sex,
Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, gang, gang violence and all
Speaker 6: of that.
Speaker 2: That's what you know.
Speaker 6: You know that a lot of the records that are
Speaker 6: being made today, rap records is about. But the way
Speaker 6: that these people are writing their records is because this
Speaker 6: is the way that they're actually living in their neighborhoods,
Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. But you do got a
Speaker 6: lot of people out there fake and talk about I'll
Speaker 6: bust this and I'll shoot that.
Speaker 2: Never shot a fucking gun up in there fucking life, but.
Speaker 1: They ain't really with this ship.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you got a lot of fucking fakes out there,
Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. Worry it up, man, Hey, hey,
Speaker 6: real people do real things, and real people recognize real people.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: Hey, play if I got a question to turn it up? Uh,

Speaker 5: rookie year, he did the Applebee's piece, and you're a
Speaker 5: Rod Lobster guy. We gotta somehow bring Red Lobster and

Speaker 7: They let me tell you that feel that's.
Speaker 6: Right when it comes down to when it come down
Speaker 6: to Red Lobster, man, Red Lobster was always one of
Speaker 6: my favorite family restaurants to take my family to, you
Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. And also back in the days,
Speaker 6: come on, man, when you was able to go to
Speaker 6: Red Lobster, you were balling.
Speaker 2: You was you?
Speaker 1: I mean, you was getting a bag up out the ass.
Speaker 1: Tell what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2: What's right?
Speaker 1: You was that's a five star motherfucking.
Speaker 5: Restaurant, No flav It was red Lobster with Sizzler. Sizzler,
Speaker 5: the red Lobster, both of them, Red Lobster.
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right. Can't forget sizzlers, baby, come on
Speaker 2: down now, it's Applebee.
Speaker 1: We can't forget about no siss Oh man?
Speaker 2: Where are you?
Speaker 8: Where are you spending most of your time in the desert?
Speaker 6: Right here where I live in Vegas. I'm in Vegas,
Speaker 6: Vegas desert.
Speaker 1: Look, Gavin, you're always trying to find a motherfucker about
Speaker 1: this shit.
Speaker 8: Just trying to find general location for the.
Speaker 1: Goddamn in the desert. Man, it's hot in the desert.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 4: Would you look at the DNC last week? You watched
Speaker 4: any of it?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: I get to see none of that, are you? By
Speaker 2: the way?
Speaker 8: I mean what you talked about.
Speaker 3: It's interesting and it's sort of an extension of Doug's
Speaker 3: question about a little bit of politics, but without talking
Speaker 3: about politics.
Speaker 8: Doug, Marshawn and I've been.
Speaker 3: Talking a lot about what's going on in inner city America,
Speaker 3: not just in inner city. Because Marshawn corrected, me, I
Speaker 3: don't even like that phrase. But what's going on in
Speaker 3: the streets? And we talked about the eighties and nineties,
Speaker 3: and you know, we just obviously I think we're still
Speaker 3: sort of reconciling what the hell happened last three four
Speaker 3: years with not just COVID, but notably social justice, which
Speaker 3: so many people forgotten what happened post George George Floyd,
Speaker 3: and so much of our politics I think being shaped
Speaker 3: today by the reaction to that and perhaps now the
Speaker 3: counter reaction to that. But what what's your sense of
Speaker 3: how the hell we're doing? I mean, all all the
Speaker 3: movement that was that was part of your music, and
Speaker 3: that energy and the positivity in terms of just not
Speaker 3: talking again diagnosing a problem, but having a message. I mean,
Speaker 3: what's your sense today of politics in relationship to the music.
Speaker 3: You're being a little critical of music in the context
Speaker 3: of people sort of posing about that reality. How you
Speaker 3: how you how you feeling that that reality is squaring
Speaker 3: with the music, And what is your sense of how
Speaker 3: we're doing broadly?
Speaker 6: I mean, well, let me say this, man, because I've
Speaker 6: never been much of a politician, and shit, you know
Speaker 6: what I'm saying, And I never really cared too much
Speaker 6: about getting into the politics, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: And see, like like right now today when it comes
Speaker 6: down to these politics on both sides, the Democrats and
Speaker 6: the Republicans, everybody's right, nobody's wrong, and you know what
Speaker 6: I'm saying, And right now there's a big fight going
Speaker 6: on with the Democrats and the Republicans. You know what
Speaker 6: I'm saying, And you know what, I stay out of
Speaker 6: it because to me, everybody's wrong. It ain't nobody right yet,
Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. So that's why that's why
Speaker 6: I stay out of the politic thing.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 7: You know, the way I see that shit is like
Speaker 7: all the politicians they like, they like middlemen. And we
Speaker 7: all know when you start putting this shit into a
Speaker 7: term of a way that motherfuckers, you know what I mean,
Speaker 7: like us can understand that is like the middle man
Speaker 7: gonna make sure that they get fed, you know what
Speaker 7: I mean, from both from both ends.
Speaker 1: You feel what I'm saying.
Speaker 7: They gonna make sure get from you know what I mean,
Speaker 7: over here, and they gonna make sure that they get
Speaker 7: paid from over there. And at the end of the day,
Speaker 7: they're gonna say the best shit that they need to
Speaker 7: say in order to make sure that they continue to
Speaker 7: get their bread. So you know what I mean, Flag,
Speaker 7: I ain't gonna lie like you know what I mean.
Speaker 7: I was telling Gav like, man, when you talk about
Speaker 7: the Republican and Democrats, like that shit, ain't nothing but
Speaker 7: a motherfucking gang. Though right then the politicians is the
Speaker 7: voice that they put out there, you feel me though,
Speaker 7: to speak, they piece and then there ain't nothing but
Speaker 7: a motherfucking middle man to the people and then.
Speaker 1: On the other side the middle man to the government.
Speaker 7: And at the end of the day, you could never
Speaker 7: put you could never put too much on them because
Speaker 7: at the end of the day, they're gonna say what
Speaker 7: they need to say in order to appease le parties
Speaker 7: because they gonna need, you know what I mean, backing
Speaker 7: from both of them. So when I was thinking about
Speaker 7: that shit and you put this shit into perspective, like, man,
Speaker 7: well look, man, if you got a motherfucker right now,
Speaker 7: who's gonna go out and get you? Because I mean,
Speaker 7: gave went uh to the border, and you know what
Speaker 7: I mean, We was talking about the fitting on and shit,
Speaker 7: and it was like how much is the fitting on it?
Speaker 7: You probably get a brick of fitting off for about
Speaker 7: twenty bands or something. And I'm like, shit, you put
Speaker 7: a middle man in that, you know what I mean?
Speaker 7: My motherfucker who got it? And it's like tell somebody
Speaker 7: who you know, I mean, who want it? Like, yeah,
Speaker 7: you know, I could probably get you a brick of
Speaker 7: fitting off for about you know what I mean, twenty right,
Speaker 7: Like I got my people over here be able to
Speaker 7: get you, feel me, then he gonna go get it.
Speaker 7: But at the end of the day, that motherfucker gonna
Speaker 7: collect from the motherfucker he's selling it to. Ran he
Speaker 7: gonna collect from the motherfucker who he gonna put in
Speaker 7: contact for the motherfucker to sell it folk.
Speaker 1: And then when you put the information in.
Speaker 7: The hands of the politicians, gave don't take this offense,
Speaker 7: don't get all offenses in perspective, it's like shit, the
Speaker 7: politicians gotta make sure, all right, he gonna he gonna
Speaker 7: tell what he needs to tell to the people in
Speaker 7: order to get what he needed to get in order
Speaker 7: for the government to be able to sign on what
Speaker 7: they need to sign on. And I'm like, damn, you
Speaker 7: know what, the motherfucker's play a middleman role.
Speaker 1: So at the end of the.
Speaker 7: Day, realistically, in a sense, Gavin, exclude you out this
Speaker 7: conversation for a second. We ain't even talking to you
Speaker 7: or about you right now. But who the fuck can
Speaker 7: you trust?
Speaker 1: When you know what I mean?
Speaker 7: You know that an individual finna go here and capitalize
Speaker 7: on both ends. Why you're not gonna make it sound
Speaker 7: good to this party over here on the right, just
Speaker 7: the same way that you're gonna make it sound good
Speaker 7: to the porty on the left.
Speaker 4: Well, that's why Marshawn and Flay we got all.
Speaker 5: We all got to be back being civil and being
Speaker 5: nice to everybody, living life and Flave. No one's lived
Speaker 5: life like you want, Marshawn, And that's the beauty of it,
Speaker 5: because you know we all have QTR quality time remaining, Flave,
Speaker 5: and and you've lived your life that way. We know
Speaker 5: Marshawn's lived his life that way. So Flave, what what's
Speaker 5: what's next for you the next five years? What do
Speaker 5: you what do you want to do? What do you
Speaker 5: want to get into?
Speaker 2: Doug?
Speaker 7: I liked it that seg my boy, you did a
Speaker 7: very good job right there, you know what I mean.
Speaker 7: That's hey, Look, that's why you feel me. That's a
Speaker 7: politician right there. Hey, Doug as my first born. You
Speaker 7: know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 4: It was a good job, mar Sean, thank you.
Speaker 1: That was That was a good segment with good Son.
Speaker 4: So flave, what do we got? What do we got next?
Speaker 2: Hey? Checked this out?
Speaker 6: Checked this out before I jump into that, right, I
Speaker 6: just wanted to just add on you know what I'm
Speaker 6: saying in the whole nine You know me, man, I'm one.
Speaker 2: I have a special goal in life that I'm trying
Speaker 2: to achieve.
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, And what I what I
Speaker 6: want to do is I want to take all all
Speaker 6: races of the world. You know what I'm saying, all
Speaker 6: races of the world, all nationalities, and I want to
Speaker 6: try to combine them together as one.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: Because this world has made up a whole bunch of
Speaker 6: different races.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: You've got the Black race, you got the White race,
Speaker 6: you got Italian, you got Chinese, you got African. I mean,
Speaker 6: you know, all of these races are people, you know
Speaker 6: what I'm saying. But at the end, but at the
Speaker 6: end of the day, there's only one race. That's the
Speaker 6: human race.
Speaker 2: Mother.
Speaker 6: So so no matter what race we come from, no
Speaker 6: matter what color we are, no matter what part of
Speaker 6: the what country we come from, no matter what language
Speaker 6: we speak. But at the end of the day, we
Speaker 6: all sisters and brothers. Man, we we must formal wall
Speaker 6: of unity. You know what I'm saying. You must stick
Speaker 6: together and build that wall of unity so nobody else
Speaker 6: could carry It'll be so strong nobody else could carry
Speaker 6: it down.
Speaker 2: So that's my mention right now. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: I'm gonna tell you something, man, One thing that my
Speaker 6: partner chug D said, when it comes down to the
Speaker 6: world peace, I'd rather live in it than fucking rest
Speaker 6: in it.
Speaker 8: Oh.
Speaker 1: I like that.
Speaker 8: I like that. I like what you're saying.
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, the Bible talks about where many
Speaker 3: parts one body, and when one part suffers, we all suffer.
Speaker 8: Doctor King talking about that, right, he said, we're.
Speaker 3: All bound together by a web of mutuality, and we've
Speaker 3: forgotten that.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 3: And this sort of this, I mean, Marshawn talks about
Speaker 3: this gang culture. But even in the prism of red
Speaker 3: versus blue and this sort of this, the zero sum
Speaker 3: bs So I appreciate that spirit. Uh and of course
Speaker 3: that's the spirit that that's defined your success, your advocacy
Speaker 3: and in.
Speaker 8: The world that you're trying to build.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: So what is I mean?
Speaker 3: You know, as Doug said, SeGW, what do you I mean?
Speaker 3: You know, Marshawn made the point. Man, you were way
Speaker 3: out front.
Speaker 8: In the eighties and nineties.
Speaker 3: You're crushing it now more recently contemporary terms. You keep
Speaker 3: reinventing yourself. Obviously you were leading and cutting edge of
Speaker 3: reality TV. Marshawn begins jealous as hell because you were
Speaker 3: sitting there one versus twenty.
Speaker 8: So where are you gonna be?
Speaker 2: Man?
Speaker 7: I need hey, man, I need me a love of
Speaker 7: beast mode or something. Man, you can't way but love.
Speaker 1: I'm like, gosh, damn.
Speaker 7: It really brought him out, like, hey, I needed you
Speaker 7: feel what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Don't you feel me?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 1: Hey, put me in the game.
Speaker 8: Coach, shocking, shocky, do a lot of all of that,
Speaker 8: you know.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: I made some major accomplishments man, through reality TV. You
Speaker 6: know what I'm saying, I made a lot of major accomplishments.
Speaker 6: Do this rap music thing, man, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: You know, I'm in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Speaker 6: You know, got the Lifetime Achievement from the Grammys. You
Speaker 6: know what I'm saying, A nice little layout in the
Speaker 6: African American Smith's sony An Institute down in DC.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: I got stuff in the in the Grammy Museum in LA.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. In the whole nine.
Speaker 6: When it comes down to VH one, you know, reality TV,
Speaker 6: I still hold the record at VH one. I brought
Speaker 6: VH one it's most viewers ever in its history, seven
Speaker 6: point five million viewers and no one else ever seen.
Speaker 6: And you know, they tried it with Brett Micha Moose,
Speaker 6: they tried it with Rage He, they tried it with
Speaker 6: New York. I can't nobody break that record, Butt Plave,
Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. So so me when it
Speaker 6: comes down to reality TV and all of that, been there,
Speaker 6: done that. I know that I set the tone for
Speaker 6: reality TV and all of that. So now then that
Speaker 6: I did drop that way back in the day. And
Speaker 6: I never got my diploma. I'm going back to high
Speaker 6: school and I'm gonna get my diploma and I'm putting
Speaker 6: that on TV. I'm putting that, you know, I'm putting
Speaker 6: that on TV. You know what I'm saying. I'm going
Speaker 6: back to high school but my diploma. Put that on TV.
Speaker 6: And then also I'm focusing, you know, on on on
Speaker 6: put my residency together here in Las Vegas.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: I got a residency right now to that I'm gonna
Speaker 6: be working on, you know what I'm saying, And I
Speaker 6: want to put it together here in Las Vegas.
Speaker 1: Hey, well, look man.
Speaker 7: You not all I'm gonna say. Like this, I think
Speaker 7: I seen it was it was it was two artists.
Speaker 7: I think it was a Holy Ray, Holy Ray and
Speaker 7: in Quavo that they just went back and they went
Speaker 7: and got the they high school diplomas and I think
Speaker 7: one of them was twenty nine and one of them
Speaker 7: was twenty four. So yeah, I mean, I don't think
Speaker 7: it matter about you. I mean how old you are
Speaker 7: or you know what I mean, what state of mind
Speaker 7: where you at and life, But blann to go ahead
Speaker 7: and put more accomplishments on your resume, like man, just
Speaker 7: keep adding them. Motherfuckers. Man, keep the motherfuckers piling up,
Speaker 7: Keep doing shit. That motherfuckers didn't think was possible for you. Man,
Speaker 7: You feel me, especially because you know we had a
Speaker 7: couple of talks on here before where you know, I mean,
Speaker 7: motherfucker's toad told me before, like you'll be dead during
Speaker 7: jail by the age of eighteen. And you feel me though, Uh,
Speaker 7: every year that I've had after eighteen, it's almost been
Speaker 7: like an extra life, like you know, something that I
Speaker 7: have been able to, uh, you know, celebrate considering that
Speaker 7: individuals really had this mindset on that's.
Speaker 1: What my life was supposed to be.
Speaker 7: So I mean, as long as you keep on you know,
Speaker 7: I mean executing anything that you put to your you
Speaker 7: know what I mean, to your to your mind and shit,
Speaker 7: and keep on elevating the levels that you probably didn't
Speaker 7: even think because I mean, who the fuck would think
Speaker 7: about going back to you know what I mean, get
Speaker 7: they high school diploma after they done just read down
Speaker 7: a resume that you just read down like it don't
Speaker 7: even make sense, you feel me, don't do that. But
Speaker 7: the fact that you had an opportunity to do it
Speaker 7: and you're gonna go and do it.
Speaker 1: Like that shit is huge. That shit is big though.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's really cool. Flavor. I mean, I get.
Speaker 2: Definitely that, you know. And also also I'm doing this.
Speaker 6: I'm doing this, this high school show, you know, for
Speaker 6: for for two reasons. Number one, you know, to show
Speaker 6: a lot of people my age that is never too
Speaker 6: late to go back and get your diploma. But this
Speaker 6: is also to a message for the kids that's in
Speaker 6: school right now, right now, while you're in school and
Speaker 6: you got that chance, get that piece of paper, man,
Speaker 6: because you're going to have a hard time through life
Speaker 6: without it. And not only that, but you might not
Speaker 6: make it back like me to get it. So so
Speaker 6: get it now while you're a head, you feel.
Speaker 5: Flavor, you actually going back to your same high school
Speaker 5: and walking the halls.
Speaker 2: And I'm I'm not going back to the same high school.
Speaker 6: I think we're gonna end up shooting this show here
Speaker 6: in Vegas, So we're trying to find a school right
Speaker 6: now that's gonna let me shoot in you know what
Speaker 6: I'm saying in the hall nine.
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's definitely gonna go down.
Speaker 8: How do you get back into a high school?
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like hold on, you actually
Speaker 7: mean like going to class? Yeah, I mean the whole
Speaker 7: backpack sitting in class. Take the whole thing, listening to
