Speaker 1: reaction what I'm saying. Uh, So it wasn't because she
Speaker 1: just walked right by, because you see me, Like, she
Speaker 1: just walked right by me. And the thing is that
Speaker 1: I got I have no problem with her might talking
Speaker 1: and it's their business. Whatever anybody want to do. God
Speaker 1: bless them, because you know I love everybody. And it's like,
Speaker 1: but you know, on my online platform, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, I just asked not to do that. Um.
Speaker 1: And the reason why I was starting her talking to
Speaker 1: me normal is because at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: it's you know, I got a lot of people that
Speaker 1: support me, and you know, I also want her to
Speaker 1: be able to get her message across without you know,
Speaker 1: so the extra stuff. Um, it's crazy because I end
Speaker 1: up going live again like a week later, she popped
Speaker 1: back up, but she came back on here talking to normal.
Speaker 1: Got numb but love for your respect, that this and that,
Speaker 1: and now she was telling me how she's an entrepreneur.
Speaker 1: You know that she has her own Um, I think
Speaker 1: she sells like I'm not if I'm not mistake, and
Speaker 1: I think baby suits and you know, just different stuff.
Speaker 1: So I was like, man, that's beautiful and let's talk
Speaker 1: about oh my lives, oh my love what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So you know, that was just a real reaction. I'm
Speaker 1: saying at the end of the day, is you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Even if I was looking at it,
Speaker 1: I'm not doing nothing wrong. But I was just like, yo,
Speaker 1: like what you know, my son situation. But it was
Speaker 1: just a real I don't know how to be me.
Speaker 1: I'm saying it just me. One night, I'm out with
Speaker 1: my wife, right, but it's not here, yest brick house,
Speaker 1: brick house. So I'm at brick house and the girl
Speaker 1: comes up to me and I guess you wanted to
Speaker 1: say hi. So we're saying hi. But the only thing
Speaker 1: she did she just looked. It was like she just
Speaker 1: turned around. It starts turky, and we all just walked away.
Speaker 1: We just like, come on, she doesn't know that we
Speaker 1: with our wives. But that's crazy when you can see
Speaker 1: people that that's the only way they know how to communicate.
Speaker 1: They you know, to get your attention is just you know,
Speaker 1: taking that. And you know, my girl's super cool. I'm saying,
Speaker 1: my girl, she she's my best friend. I'm saying, and
Speaker 1: I've been together friend like over thirteen years and she's
Speaker 1: um my best friend. What I'm saying, she's just my
Speaker 1: best friend. She will never trip about nothing like that.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, she's a guy. I just anybody know
Speaker 1: my girl, she s a real one. So I'm like, yo, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: no problems. If I was one love that was a
Speaker 1: super Legiti that was that was Joe. That was so
Speaker 1: moving on. Let's take it. Let's take it from the
Speaker 1: beginning because a lot of people, a lot of people
Speaker 1: just think that you just started and you just you
Speaker 1: came this guy. A lot of people don't understand the
Speaker 1: grind from the beginning. Last people, I mean, I understand that.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm talking about I'm talking about the genetics
Speaker 1: right the world. So how did you actually because I
Speaker 1: believe it's Louisiana. Then you moved to Atlanta though, so
Speaker 1: I was raised in Florida. I was born in New Orleans,
Speaker 1: but I was raised in Florida. UM And while I
Speaker 1: was living in Florida, went back to New Orleans, um again,
Speaker 1: because my finances wasn't right how to get back on
Speaker 1: my feet. And my mother and father lived in Florida
Speaker 1: at one time, but they went back. You know, everything
Speaker 1: got took it away from them. I'm saying, Um, basically
Speaker 1: like ship got real, what I'm saying. And it was
Speaker 1: happening to me when I was like fifteen, and um,
Speaker 1: you know, God blessed me and let me see, um
Speaker 1: the blessings and then you let me see how quick
Speaker 1: it will be taken away, you know, at a young age.
Speaker 1: So that's what you know. When you see a lot
Speaker 1: of me and a lot of my talk, that's just me,
Speaker 1: you know, my experiences of real life. So I lived
Speaker 1: in Miami for over about twenty seven years, I would
Speaker 1: say seven something like that. Um, so I've been raised
Speaker 1: in Florida, what I'm saying. I lived in Orlando for
Speaker 1: a for you years too, But Miami was my home,
Speaker 1: my heart, and it's been over twenty seven years. When
Speaker 1: you live in a city more than twenty years, you
Speaker 1: know that's your life. You damn near born. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, this is this is my home
Speaker 1: is what I represented to what I screamed, and I
Speaker 1: had love for everywhere what I'm saying. But you know,
Speaker 1: just to answer your question, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: I became DJ caged, you know what I'm saying right
Speaker 1: here in Miami. You know what I'm saying. You know
Speaker 1: me and him, you should rocket club cream. What I'm saying,
Speaker 1: like fifth in Washington was like one of the first
Speaker 1: hip And you know what I love about your relationship
Speaker 1: is because he rapped you so hard, repped you so hard,
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about, another level you're saying. And
Speaker 1: he would bring you to two shows in Miami. This's
Speaker 1: when he had the what what you know? And if
Speaker 1: that would bring him bring you down? And I just
Speaker 1: love how y'all partners and and how the friendship. But
Speaker 1: let's take it from this. So when when did you
Speaker 1: start out first? Was it DJN or was it so DJ?
Speaker 1: I saw a DJ and UM at an early age.
Speaker 1: I would say probably about thirteen four a team in
Speaker 1: in Orlando, and then I came to Miami. What I'm saying,
Speaker 1: so you know, UM, I started DJ early, I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And as soon as I started DJ, and I immediately
Speaker 1: got into production. So you know back in them days,
Speaker 1: you know it's called the beating overcame, So it was
Speaker 1: DJ Cavin beating overcame. Um and you know, nobody knew
Speaker 1: me what I'm saying that this is me just living
Speaker 1: my dreams. You actually press the buttons. Yeah, MPC sixty
Speaker 1: I'm saying, drum machine. Look, you know, cast your keyboard
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, like with and a lot of vinyl
Speaker 1: record Obviously we sampled a lot of that time I'm saying,
Speaker 1: so I was I was more of UM MPC and
Speaker 1: a lot of turntable sampling, you know what I'm saying. So,
Speaker 1: and that's how the music was putting it out at
Speaker 1: that time. Um SO production and DJ was kind of
Speaker 1: like together. But obviously you know DJ broke the door
Speaker 1: down for me. I'm saying, uh so, you were producing
Speaker 1: from the get not they get but two years yeah
Speaker 1: for sure for shore Mics ninety six days. So I
Speaker 1: started DJ. Then, um you know when I came to Miami,
Speaker 1: I end up doing underground radio. He brought up mixed
Speaker 1: Signy six. I call it community radio, and they call
Speaker 1: it what I'm saying, um so, I would when I
Speaker 1: used to do Mick Sagny six. It was crazy man
Speaker 1: because um shouting the Butterfuco Daddy Saul and everybody was
Speaker 1: at mixed SIGNI six and UM. I remember coming in
Speaker 1: there with like Crates and I'm like, yo, I wanna
Speaker 1: I wanna rock, know what I'm saying, and They're like,
Speaker 1: you know. I was so persistent and consistent, and they
Speaker 1: finally let me on and it was a late night show,
Speaker 1: and I was, you know, I've ripped it down, and
Speaker 1: everybody was calling up like who's this guy? Who's this guy?
Speaker 1: His voices, the way he played music. You know, they
Speaker 1: showed love what I'm saying. And I end up rocking
Speaker 1: so much, got the calls from the city from the streets,
Speaker 1: will just keep coming in, coming in coming in. But
Speaker 1: at the same time, as I only had like a
Speaker 1: one hour show, what happened was, you know, how can
Speaker 1: I be down? Was out here, so how can I
Speaker 1: be down with in Miami? All the DJs wanted to
Speaker 1: go to the convention. I want you to be on
Speaker 1: the radio, So I stayed on the radio. Everybody left
Speaker 1: their show, so now I'm joined the afternoon show, the
Speaker 1: morning show, the night show. I slept in the apartments.
Speaker 1: You know that the station the floor under you was
Speaker 1: ninety four point seven that was at that station. Literally
Speaker 1: are yeah, we're like rival underground radio stations with houses. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is that's the way the ground radio locations. What
Speaker 1: you're saying, because you know, you know the receiver somewhere.
Speaker 1: You know what. That makes sense cause I was stretching
Speaker 1: Barbados ship was in an apartment in New York. So
Speaker 1: you gotta remember Miami didn't have the commercial radio. Wasn't
Speaker 1: really know what I'm saying that we was playing the
Speaker 1: hip hop here you was saying. And that's why I
Speaker 1: love being on the shoulder because he was playing it too,
Speaker 1: and I was playing it. And so now I'm on
Speaker 1: the radio, everybody hearing me, the whole city in Miami
Speaker 1: embracing me. But also when people came from out of town,
Speaker 1: because everybody come to Miami. What I'm saying, especially at
Speaker 1: that time the morning a weekend, how can I be down?
Speaker 1: Everybody coming? So all the artists end up coming and
Speaker 1: you know, calling up, like, yo, call it up, I
Speaker 1: see you doing your thing. Boy, You're coming up, and
Speaker 1: you know, I'm like just ripping it down right and
Speaker 1: then um fat Joe would come to my show, Big
Speaker 1: Pun will come to my show. Cameroon will come to
Speaker 1: my show. KR Swarm will come on my show and
Speaker 1: wrap for like two hours straight, not one break. What
Speaker 1: I'm saying, like, why Cleap will come on my show?
Speaker 1: You know, every artist will come on my show. Um,
Speaker 1: and you know that's when they came in town. But
Speaker 1: the city of Miami, you know what I'm saying, read
Speaker 1: me so hard. And I read the city of Miami
Speaker 1: so hard. You know. It was every day you heard
Speaker 1: Cabot on the radio, Like you know, that's just part
Speaker 1: of a day in a life in Miami. You get
Speaker 1: in your car, you in your crib, you're gonna hear
Speaker 1: DJ caled is a seven days week, seven days a week.
Speaker 1: One day you're saying, like, so, you know, and then
Speaker 1: it got bigger than then. Uncle Nuke called me shout
Speaker 1: the Luke Um. Luke called me like, y'all want you
Speaker 1: to do my new show on ninety nine Jams. It's
Speaker 1: the big station. So he gave me the opportunity, which
Speaker 1: is equivalent right right. So I end up doing co
Speaker 1: hosting with him and d jan on The Luke Shaw
Speaker 1: on Friday Night, and I still kept my underground radio.
Speaker 1: I was I'm making a hundred hours a week. I'm
Speaker 1: saying straight up, I'm hustling. Yeah, yeah, this is where
Speaker 1: I go driving. We're ate is twenty crates and record crates,
Speaker 1: jumping on a tri rail that's the train and getting
Speaker 1: to the you know, like back in the days it
Speaker 1: was in Biscaine View. I say it now, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. We'll get ready back then, you know, eventually,
Speaker 1: you know the way. I have no idea what you
Speaker 1: guys are talking about, but you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So Luke called me up and let me be um
Speaker 1: a DJ on the show and a co host. And
Speaker 1: that show, Maori, it was so big, not just big
Speaker 1: in Miami, big in the world. So he gave me
Speaker 1: the opportunity and and and I'm very grateful for that
Speaker 1: opportunity because um, not only did it get super big,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, it was so big that
Speaker 1: it had to come off the air because it was
Speaker 1: just too big. That big. It just kind of so
Speaker 1: you know, Luke was touring and we did the show
Speaker 1: for you know, for years, and and when he left radio,
Speaker 1: I end up they end up keeping me to doing
Speaker 1: the Friday night show. So I was grateful for him
Speaker 1: to give me the opportunity. So I started working at
Speaker 1: nine nine Jams and from nine nine Jams on Friday
Speaker 1: night show. I went to having a Friday night show
Speaker 1: to a five o'clock mix in the afternoon and um
Speaker 1: sometimes do the night show mix at nine o'clock. But
Speaker 1: then eventually, make a long story short, they gave me
Speaker 1: my own show. You know what I'm saying. I end
Speaker 1: up doing the night show like how Flex would have
Speaker 1: a night show. So I'm breaking records down like I'm
Speaker 1: breaking records. I'm breaking every record. I'm breaking records in
Speaker 1: my AMMI I'm breaking records out whatever great music I
Speaker 1: would break it. I was passionate I would I damn me.

Speaker 1: that's something I'm sorry, is that something you got from
Speaker 1: Master Flex. I'm definitely inspired by breaking records bringing it back. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: I remember you broke that Garcia record for us. Yes,

Speaker 1: first time I heard you do that. I got suspended.
Speaker 1: I came back on I did the same thing, suspended
Speaker 1: again and threatened to fire me. I was like, listen,
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to fire me because I know what

Speaker 1: For the CD, I was playing Ross Trick, treaming up
Speaker 1: pit Bull. You know the list go on. There's too
Speaker 1: many records a name, but um, it was the reason
Speaker 1: I'm bringing up hustling because that's a moment that nobody
Speaker 1: could forget. I remember that, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: And everything I did on the radio I did in
Speaker 1: the club, I did in the club and play Yeah,
Speaker 1: I should rock the club. Prevay when b and Matthews
Speaker 1: who come in the club, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: and you know it would be a hundred at least
Speaker 1: five hundred of them. I'm saying, they always showed me
Speaker 1: love and they come rocking. A matter of fact, I
Speaker 1: was probably, Um, I met Jeez. I know Jeez as
Speaker 1: just being a street dude. Then they said, you play
Speaker 1: this record and end up being Jeezy and the places erupted.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So like, there's so many
Speaker 1: special moments that prevay and my birthday. Um, um squashing
Speaker 1: that getting to that rushing the temple you had a
Speaker 1: lot to do with Rick, Ross and Jess squashing the right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well you know, Ross my brother, that's family and Jez
Speaker 1: my brother, you say, and you know, you know Ross
Speaker 1: home team and whatever the situation was. Me personally, I
Speaker 1: knew it wasn't nothing. It was it got to be
Speaker 1: miscommunication whenever you know, um, cause the energy, but it
Speaker 1: was it was my duty as a friend to every
Speaker 1: day bring up Yo, they sit down. It might have
Speaker 1: took a few years, but I always brought it up
Speaker 1: to sit down, what I'm saying, And we finally sat
Speaker 1: down with me Ross, Jeezy and hip hop, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And um, I talked to Jez so
Speaker 1: many times and I think Ross end up bumping the
Speaker 1: Jez one time, and you know, and just you know,
Speaker 1: I could feel like the energy was getting closer where
Speaker 1: you know, we could sit down. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I was there at the BT Awards show. You know
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You know, it was always um, I guess
Speaker 1: what they say at attention, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But I knew it wasn't nothing for them to be beefing,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because beef is that's a
Speaker 1: big word, what I'm saying. And at the end of
Speaker 1: the day, as a friend, as a brother, and for
Speaker 1: hip hop, I felt like, you know, cabals don't for
Speaker 1: unity and love what I'm saying. So both of them
Speaker 1: felt comfortable talking about any situation with me what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So we eventually sat down and it's crazy, we sat down,
Speaker 1: It was beautiful, was in the studio, and we made
Speaker 1: two records. You know I'm saying, one for Um. You know,
Speaker 1: he cut one with Ross and Ross cut one with him.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, like for both albums, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. It was just incredible, man, just to see
Speaker 1: them brothers come back together. And the only thing I wish, man,
Speaker 1: I wish you know, they never had that situation because
Speaker 1: I would have loved to hear them to make an
Speaker 1: album together, not saying you know what I'm saying about
Speaker 1: saying that and many tours they missed together because those
Speaker 1: two were so powerful, you know what I'm saying, So
Speaker 1: shout out the Rick Ross, my brother you know how
Speaker 1: A and all a lot of Rick Ross albums, Like
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of people don't, you know, like
Speaker 1: you said, you see my success now, but they don't
Speaker 1: realize can not just a DJ and the producer, but
Speaker 1: also a music executive. You know, I'm saying if somebody
Speaker 1: had played the background, you know, I was blessed. And
Speaker 1: our records with Ross and produce and you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, just classic albums like Teflon Darn and Deeper
Speaker 1: than Rap, you know, as many more I'm saying I
Speaker 1: was blessed. I was. I was president of def Jam South.
Speaker 1: My office was in Miami, and l A read put
Speaker 1: me in position, you know, New York and Miami, back
Speaker 1: and forth. So I was blessed with all this you know,
Speaker 1: energy and responsibility at the same time I was shaping
Speaker 1: up my career, you know what I'm saying. So everything
Speaker 1: was like each key leads to the next key, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I see, you know, because the
Speaker 1: keys never run out. So I was just like to
Speaker 1: be able to make and sit in the studio with
Speaker 1: Rick Ross and watch him cut these classical albums and records,
Speaker 1: and you know, what I mean, and to be a
Speaker 1: a and on the credit um even executive produced whatever
Speaker 1: with him, you know what I mean. I want to
Speaker 1: thank Ross for believing in me, and I want to
Speaker 1: thank l A Read for believing in me, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean and giving me that opportunity because they
Speaker 1: can never take that away from me. Because he ships
Speaker 1: are classics and Ross every at Ross jumped on every
Speaker 1: single record I've ever asked him to jump on. He's
Speaker 1: on every single album I ever put out. That's just
Speaker 1: one of my great relationships. You're saying, you know what,

Speaker 1: head just now was, you know, when we interview people,
Speaker 1: we always go through their music. We didn't have to
Speaker 1: do that with you because we know your music, right,
Speaker 1: but we was going through your music anyway. But someone

Speaker 1: there's two part questions because you as you said the temple, right,
Speaker 1: but why did you call it the temple? Um man?
Speaker 1: You know, I was you know, Kara Swan is one
Speaker 1: of my biggest you know, he's definitely one of my
Speaker 1: favorite mcs um But like I am, you know, I'm Arabic.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, I'm Palestinian um and just I love
Speaker 1: I felt like the Temple to become party inside the
Speaker 1: temple and like the temple hip one um hip hop,
Speaker 1: like he said in a bunch of records, I'm saying
Speaker 1: and and actually I don't think I got it from
Speaker 1: him saying it that it was just a connection, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, and and and it was it
Speaker 1: just connected. And he would you know, I remember he
Speaker 1: would freestyle at my show and say at the temple
Speaker 1: and this isn't that so um, It's definitely inspired, but
Speaker 1: I wanted to you know, I'm Arabic, so I just
Speaker 1: felt like the temple was some super dope and it
Speaker 1: was my birthday party and we do it every year
Speaker 1: and in Miami knows it's one of the biggest parties
Speaker 1: in Miami. Um and I made it not about me.
Speaker 1: I made it about hip hop. What I'm saying where
Speaker 1: my goal was just trying to bring every DJ and
Speaker 1: every artist together. It started off with like me Tony
Speaker 1: touch O, c Me had South Brox and Brox and
Speaker 1: Fay South Beach, Me Facto and Punn you know. Then
Speaker 1: I had something with me, you know, Wu tang Ye
Speaker 1: Cleft Cannabis. Then he got to like DMX every Daddy
Speaker 1: and then the t I you know whatever era as
Speaker 1: a kid, whatever era was popping. I had the major lineup,
Speaker 1: like the major lineup and no, no, no, no. You
Speaker 1: can mark history by like Miami hip hop history and say,
Speaker 1: remember this year Temple, This is this year of the Temple,
Speaker 1: this year people, because it's legendary. No, it's it's true
Speaker 1: and legendary and bust the rhymes and what year you
Speaker 1: started it? I came. I'm trying to think when I
Speaker 1: came to six, it had to be not I think
Speaker 1: I came to Miami three no earlier than that. Now,
Speaker 1: I think it was I think Big Ton when when
Speaker 1: when before pun before pun one? Is not any six
Speaker 1: no before puns before number four, before before Big Punta
Speaker 1: recorded twins And that wasn't even the first when was
Speaker 1: um oh see yeah, that's time was ni n It
Speaker 1: had to be like ninety now that three. You gotta
Speaker 1: be in that that thing that came into Miami in
Speaker 1: the nineties, for sure, you know what I'm saying. Um,
Speaker 1: And it was just it came from here to here
Speaker 1: the year and end up being like it was guaranteed
Speaker 1: sold out. If the club would be sold out and
Speaker 1: it'd be like ten thousand people outside, that ship made
Speaker 1: gave me the biggest high. Knowing that we're rampacked and
Speaker 1: there's ten thousand outside, you know what I'm saying, not
Speaker 1: being rare like the true And besides the performances, the
Speaker 1: city of Miami came out so legendary. I'm talking about
Speaker 1: every barbershop, every close uh store with you know, I
Speaker 1: used to pass albums saw almost Besides the party being
Speaker 1: so big, my marketing was so incredible because I'm passing
Speaker 1: out on the flo, I'm riding a fight with a banner,
Speaker 1: I'm rapping tour buses, I'm on every mic, hijacking every club.
Speaker 1: You know, so coming the party, you know, you know
Speaker 1: what you know, and don't forget my dj and styles
Speaker 1: wasn't regular, like no, not being really how one of
Speaker 1: the DJs like, oh ship, he's here, he's about to
Speaker 1: come fun the place up and he's not coming like
Speaker 1: to just play music. He coming like to make fucking history.
Speaker 1: When I walk out, that motherfucker, they say, who's that?
Speaker 1: You gotta remember I came before they had Instagram and
Speaker 1: tweets and and and all that ship They said, who
Speaker 1: was that guy? My name saying in the streets, calgo
Speaker 1: broken the mud, you know what I mean? That's just
Speaker 1: spread it everywhere, you know what I mean, from Jamaica
Speaker 1: to Brooklyn, the motherfucking Carol City. How did you photo
Speaker 1: love with reggae because a lot of your style feels
Speaker 1: like the most DJs in Florida period, South Florida specifically,
Speaker 1: they're gonna be wolvers and reggae and hip hop. Yeah
Speaker 1: what Miami's a Caribby in place. But but but I was.
Speaker 1: I was from a baby around Roster and like, um,
Speaker 1: you know, Bouja Bantam my brother, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Bound to Killer. Yeah, he just dropped the albums out
Speaker 1: right now, gonna get that. So the the dancehall culture
Speaker 1: was as much as I love the hip hop culture.

Speaker 1: you listen to like my last album at Holy Mountain,
Speaker 1: you know, he's a real speaking of my was done
Speaker 1: that that was like one of years ago, and but
Speaker 1: it came out probably twenty years but it was done

Speaker 1: we're gonna We're gonna find a way to live our dream.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, you know, no, it's a classic. What
Speaker 1: I'm saying. I've seen that ship get made. It's too many,
Speaker 1: that's a whole another dream Champ. That's too many stories.
Speaker 1: I don't make that contributed to your style, like the sound,
Speaker 1: because now I was already sound clashing, and that's I
Speaker 1: was so nice to do Rocket's Island Madhouse. But before that,
Speaker 1: I was always like I grew. I was born hip
Speaker 1: hop like I breathe eat sleep hip hop. I was
Speaker 1: born like this, yeah, you know saying, but I also
Speaker 1: was born with the dance hall culture too. And that's
Speaker 1: why Jamaica love me so much because you know, not
Speaker 1: they don't know Calid for where he's at right now.
Speaker 1: They know Cali from the mud, uh, you know, going
Speaker 1: to places that people can't even go to in Jamaica,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And ripping, sound clashing and
Speaker 1: and all right on another to this day, I wrapped um,
Speaker 1: but it's the love on another. I love Mountain. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know every party. Every record has a different story,
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, from records getting made, everything has a
Speaker 1: different story, you know what I'm saying. That's what I
Speaker 1: love about making music, Um, making albums, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, even in the process, because everything has a
Speaker 1: different story. Like Wild Thoughts, you know one of my
Speaker 1: biggest records. You know, when I produced that, I was
Speaker 1: saying to myself, the only way I'm gonna make that record.
Speaker 1: Like I had the record, I was like me as
Speaker 1: a producer, I'm saying to myself, the only way I
Speaker 1: would let this go if I can get Rihanna and
Speaker 1: not it's gonna seeing my drive until I can get
Speaker 1: I put Bryson Tiler on there. Yeah, put Bryson Tiler
Speaker 1: on there. And you know, I'm a fan of Bryson Tiller.
Speaker 1: He's incredible. He's very talented, and I wanted to do
Speaker 1: a collaboration where you didn't expect. First of all, Rihanna
Speaker 1: is the biggest. I put Till on there, and of
Speaker 1: course I got to prove. You know, when you work
Speaker 1: with a big artist like Rihanna, you know it's okay.
Speaker 1: I'm saying not not no disrespect, but that's just out
Speaker 1: of respect. And she loved the idea. She did that
Speaker 1: for me. Everything has it. It's just everything has a
Speaker 1: different story. But that's what I love about making this musical,
Speaker 1: but not even just making it, I love all show.
Speaker 1: Being behind the scenes. I've been behind the scenes. There's
Speaker 1: so many classic ship you know what I mean, as
Speaker 1: a kid growing up and then as a music executive.
Speaker 1: The rooms I've been in, it's unbelievable. I've worked with
Speaker 1: jay Z, Kanye, Beyonce. You worked with jay Z after
Speaker 1: he said, um ain't nobody working with the future with
Speaker 1: some ship. But he had Future on the record, which
Speaker 1: one nobody you know, ain't nobody playing Future with my son?
Speaker 1: And you know, I never really got into that. But
Speaker 1: I know that jay Z is a great man, and
Speaker 1: no futures are great man. I know at that time, Um,
Speaker 1: obviously it was I don't think it could be something
Speaker 1: because I came to Future in jay Z and we
Speaker 1: did a record call I Got the Keys. I don't,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't even know you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I to be honest you, um, but the blessed is
Speaker 1: that I got Future and jay Z on the record.
Speaker 1: I got the keys the Future. I love Future being
Speaker 1: him making incredible records together. You're saying, And jay Z,
Speaker 1: that's my brother, what I'm saying, And Future my brother,
Speaker 1: and we made I got the Keys, I remember making
Speaker 1: I got the Keys. Um. Jay Z put on all
Speaker 1: his chains when he did his verse, every single chain
Speaker 1: on what I'm saying. Um, when we made top Off,
Speaker 1: you know it said, you know I came to him,
Speaker 1: And that's another record I did with jay Z, Future
Speaker 1: and Beyonce. I came to jays Yeah, top Off the
Speaker 1: may Back and I made Shining with jay Z and Beyonce.
Speaker 1: Record I produced. You know what I'm saying. So I
Speaker 1: was saying to myself, like, on top off, I came
Speaker 1: to jay Z to get it on, get on it.
Speaker 1: He got on it, and when he played me his verse,
Speaker 1: I was like, I got an idea, Why don't you
Speaker 1: bring the queen in right here? That's a crazy question
Speaker 1: to ask. You gotta have you gotta be strong to
Speaker 1: ask that. Yeah, you got and I'm scared. I was scared,
Speaker 1: But I'm like, you know what, I wouldn't be calid
Speaker 1: without trying. You know. Let what I said. I said,
Speaker 1: you know I'm not afraid to be told no neither. Yeah.
Speaker 1: If I be told no, you know me what that second?
Speaker 1: Because So when I played it for him, I was
Speaker 1: so excited. I got jay Z on another record it's
Speaker 1: j yeah yeah. Now I was like, now I can
Speaker 1: see you coming from I was so excited. I was
Speaker 1: just like, Joe, imagine you bringing in the queens? Did
Speaker 1: second thinking? Though? Your second thinking? The reason why I
Speaker 1: said thinking second back where we outside, that's how we
Speaker 1: sweat the reason why I did second guessing for a
Speaker 1: second second think it to say it is because I
Speaker 1: just got them making a record with them called shining,
Speaker 1: and that's a whole another story. I gotta tell you
Speaker 1: that story. So so you felt like you were doubling down.
Speaker 1: But I'm drinking the right thing about it too. We're
Speaker 1: drinking that good A reason why I said, it's nothing
Speaker 1: wrong for me asking when you make good music, you
Speaker 1: made great music, and you've got great chemistry and got
Speaker 1: great energy with somebody, Well, I just do one. Let's
Speaker 1: keep going. And that's how I feel about every artist
Speaker 1: I work with, Drake Ross, Future Brain. If you listen
Speaker 1: to my albums, my goal is to continue to work
Speaker 1: with all these great artists. If you look at it,
Speaker 1: if you can rentinue to like Rihan, if you look
Speaker 1: at great directors and great people producers, look at Adam Sandler,
Speaker 1: you look at Ben Stiller. They always used the same
Speaker 1: exactly people. Chemistry is nothing wrong with it as long
Speaker 1: as you made great music and the fans love it.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, Um, So I just brought up to Jay.
Speaker 1: You know, Jay always give me this look like call
Speaker 1: you you know, but as a friendly that's my brother.
Speaker 1: And I've seen this thinking hope, you know, like thinking
Speaker 1: like come on, you know the queen you know, say,
Speaker 1: I just leave. I'm already happy I got you. He's like, y'all,
Speaker 1: it's like a thing. Like a week later, I'm already
Speaker 1: ready to mix the record. I remember I was in
Speaker 1: the back of a fantom with the fucking stars on
Speaker 1: it and this chilling. It was like a nighttime in
Speaker 1: l A And he's like, yo, texting me come to
Speaker 1: the crib. I come to cribs. Beyonce there. So I'm like, oh, ship,
Speaker 1: they played me the record and it's Beyonce on that.
Speaker 1: I'm losing my mind. Oh oh, so they didn't tell
Speaker 1: you she's on there. You just think you coming to
Speaker 1: career for someone. I'm already happy. I'm always grateful. That
Speaker 1: is gonna clear it. I'm good I got hold. Beyonce
Speaker 1: is on there. Now I'm losing, you know, I'm you know,
Speaker 1: when when Beyonce in the room, I'm like in the corner.
Speaker 1: I get nervous, as you should. I just want to
Speaker 1: say hi, and I want to leave because I'm just like, yes,
Speaker 1: she got so much. She's it's Beyonce and she acts normal,
Speaker 1: but she's not normal that she's incredible. But let me
Speaker 1: tell your story. Not only they did top off, you know,
Speaker 1: I gave. You know, I produced a record called Move
Speaker 1: Forever on Beyonce's Lyon King. They played me that too
Speaker 1: before I came out, So I'm getting top. Yes, double whammy.
Speaker 1: I see how I was feeling. I'm like, we're the
Speaker 1: biggest work with working jay Z and Beyonc. I did
Speaker 1: and also produce a record with Beyonce on another record
Speaker 1: that's not even that's for her. I'm like, what the fuck?
Speaker 1: I left that crib like yo, I told my woman.
Speaker 1: I told us saw. I'm like, yo, we out of here.
Speaker 1: You were saying that other house. Yeah, just so, um,
Speaker 1: you know, I was blessed, blessed that have two cribs
Speaker 1: in Miami. I saw one of them. Um, and I
Speaker 1: want to shout out Danger too, because he did some
Speaker 1: programming on Moved Forever with me. That's my man. Also, Um,
Speaker 1: there's a version of Move Forever that just Blaze did
Speaker 1: like a breakdown to you know, saying when you when
Speaker 1: you work with Beyonce, you know, I'm saying she produced
Speaker 1: some of it. I did, and and then you know
Speaker 1: other people got involved, and that's just a beautiful thing because, um,
Speaker 1: you know, working with Beyonce, you don't know, like you
Speaker 1: shot music or something. You don't know what you you know,

Speaker 1: Brooklyn know what I'm saying, And we're going signing some
Speaker 1: more artists and um, there's a lot of things I'm
Speaker 1: doing in uh this year that I'm probably gonna announce
Speaker 1: about just the brand. As far as the label side,
Speaker 1: We're bringing some more people on the on board and
Speaker 1: the international artists. Um, we ain't got nobody international right now,
Speaker 1: but you know, we're looking for greatness and saying like
Speaker 1: you know, you can't never really know when something's gonna
Speaker 1: come to your table to come because you know, music
Speaker 1: is a is a feeling, is survibe and then the
Speaker 1: way we're the best is running. It's running like it's
Speaker 1: a family. You know. I'm so it's just gotta fit
Speaker 1: and it gotta fit for both of us whoever we
Speaker 1: work with, and it just it just happens, not like
Speaker 1: one day I'm just looking to sign anyone. It just
Speaker 1: I wanna hears something that's so incredible that makes me
Speaker 1: want to be a fan. But you talk about how
Speaker 1: difficult it is sometimes as a CEO, because as a CEO,
Speaker 1: you have everything in and in in this atmosphere you
Speaker 1: can you can reach any artists, and then you get
Speaker 1: these artists and you give them the same platform that
Speaker 1: you have, but they might not reach the deal with that.
Speaker 1: I mean no, you know me for a long time.
Speaker 1: You know me for a long time. I go hard
Speaker 1: for everyone I go. I don't think nobody go harder. Um,
Speaker 1: I promote hard for everyone. I try to push you
Speaker 1: to be great for everybody, not just artists, people that
Speaker 1: if it's Ivan Kiko. My friends that work with me
Speaker 1: has been down with me from your patty. I pushed
Speaker 1: them to be great. I want them everybody. We gotta
Speaker 1: be great. We gotta be great. You know, we're a family.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So um, but as a human,
Speaker 1: you gotta know how far you want to go. I'm saying,
Speaker 1: you know, if you could be presignory all my life
Speaker 1: and I'm like, you know, you gotta go harder. You
Speaker 1: know this and that and that. Some people, you know,
Speaker 1: it's a decisire you have to make. I'm not saying
Speaker 1: people don't go hard, I know, but some people go hard.
Speaker 1: Is that about that? It's just everybody got their own
Speaker 1: way of doing things, no matter what. But me as
Speaker 1: a friend, and that's somebody that is working with you
Speaker 1: as a partnership, I'm always gonna put you to be
Speaker 1: great what I'm saying, And everybody works hard, but everybody
Speaker 1: got their own way of doing ship, the same way
Speaker 1: you got your own way doing your show. You were
Speaker 1: really particular, how do you want your show? Everybody got
Speaker 1: their own way of doing ship, and you have to
Speaker 1: respect that. I love that what I'm saying, But how
Speaker 1: hard is it? Like when you're executive and I'm just
Speaker 1: suing the executive column and I ain't talking to the
Speaker 1: brother college the brother cause everyone knows you have the
Speaker 1: one of the most purest hearts in the world, right,
Speaker 1: But what happens when you're invested into an artist and
Speaker 1: and you you're digging into a hole almost like a boat.
Speaker 1: Like people say, don't never buy a boat, because if
Speaker 1: you buy a boat, it just keeps thinking down. So
Speaker 1: what part what time does you say you're like, you
Speaker 1: know what, it's not working through you step away or
Speaker 1: how does that work? Um? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: I never step away really to be honest with you. Um,
Speaker 1: you know it's you. You're welcome here no matter what
Speaker 1: unless you do something disrespect for a violation. What I'm saying,
Speaker 1: that's just anything. But we're not We're nobody no. So, um,
Speaker 1: if you want to be here, let's go. Let's walk
Speaker 1: to the wheels fall off. He said about if you
Speaker 1: win in is now, I know it takes time. I
Speaker 1: come from nothing, man like, I didn't start overnight, but
Speaker 1: I know where it takes to get there. I don't
Speaker 1: you know, callid callid me. I never. I don't give up, um,
Speaker 1: And so I'm not gonna give up on nobody else either,
Speaker 1: unless they want to not be here. And not being
Speaker 1: here doesn't mean you don't love me, don't like me.
Speaker 1: You know I'm saying. People grow. What I'm saying, I've grown,
Speaker 1: I've moved situations. So but I always kept my relationships
Speaker 1: with everybody I've been with. There's nobody, there's nobody can
Speaker 1: talk bad about Caled. And somebody talks bad about Caled,
Speaker 1: then you need to really look at them. You can't
Speaker 1: please everybody. If somebody talks bad about cal, you really
Speaker 1: need to look at them. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And and and at the end of the day is um,
Speaker 1: I'm blessed that nobody really talked bad about me. What
Speaker 1: I'm saying, you know you no, we all are human.
Speaker 1: I'm sure somebody I said this, that, and that. But
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, is come on, I
Speaker 1: can't see somebody saying something bad about Noriega because I
Speaker 1: know Noriega pure. You know what I'm saying. But at
Speaker 1: the end of the day, is I represent pure? You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. It's love always right, and that's
Speaker 1: the thing. I'm just gonna push everybody to be great.
Speaker 1: That's what I do. And everybody know me know that.
Speaker 1: That's real ship. I gotta make some noise for that.

Speaker 1: had a whole thing addressing baby. But he said, what
Speaker 1: hurt me is, brother Colin? What do you say? He said, Well,
Speaker 1: hurt me is whatever happened with you and my brother Colin.

Speaker 1: And I'm just proud to be his friend. And and
Speaker 1: just you know, I love his family. And you know,
Speaker 1: I think when he made that record was more like
Speaker 1: you know, Ross has always been a big brother, not
Speaker 1: just for me, but for a lot of people. And
Speaker 1: he's like a big brother in the game, you know,
Speaker 1: like you know, we look at jay Z is big
Speaker 1: homie you know, I look at rosss like big brother,
Speaker 1: and he was just basically what I'm saying. He just
Speaker 1: cared about his people, you know what I mean. And
Speaker 1: at the end of the day is I know Ross
Speaker 1: always has great intentions to everything because he's a real
Speaker 1: person that he would come to the table. You know,
Speaker 1: you're a real man, like any situation could be a
Speaker 1: problem or no problem. A real man should come to
Speaker 1: the table. And you know, and me and you had
Speaker 1: a situation, whe should get on the phone or go
Speaker 1: come to the table. You know what I'm saying. And
Speaker 1: you know it can't be that serious not to be
Speaker 1: able to go to the table and fix it. Um,
Speaker 1: he was just showing me love. He was bigging me up,
Speaker 1: showing me love. And um, I've loved for bird Man,
Speaker 1: I've loved for Ross, Ross, you know, his family, And
Speaker 1: at that moment, at that time, was more like Roster saying,
Speaker 1: you know, I just got out my situation with cash money,
Speaker 1: and I appreciate cash money everything they've done for me. Um,
Speaker 1: and not just speaking about cash money. I used to
Speaker 1: be on Cosh. Remember Fact Joe brought me Fact Joe
Speaker 1: got me my first deal with Cotch. Joe Crack. I
Speaker 1: love you for that. You know what I'm saying. He believed,
Speaker 1: he believed in me, and he believed in me to
Speaker 1: get me a deal at Cosh Records. From Cosh Records,
Speaker 1: I went to, um, was we taking over? Let me
Speaker 1: tell you something that's I'm gonna be honest. I don't
Speaker 1: even know if I ever told you this. I've been
Speaker 1: around you so much and I've never told you this.
Speaker 1: That's one of my top five. That's why when I
Speaker 1: hear why you know why? When I moved to Miami,
Speaker 1: that was like the first record, like when I was
Speaker 1: like finally was like and I just heard that ship everything.
Speaker 1: I loved that. Right, I'm gonna sucker for not telling
Speaker 1: you that a long time ago. You know, I'm just
Speaker 1: saying I should have said that. That record like We're
Speaker 1: taking Over and I'm so Hood changed my life? Those
Speaker 1: are those too? Like my life? And what came first?
Speaker 1: I'm so Hood? Or were taking over first? Then I'm
Speaker 1: so Hood? Okay, okay, And those two records changed my life.
Speaker 1: And I want to shout out Joe Krack for getting
Speaker 1: me to deal with I don't grund black? Was we
Speaker 1: the best? Ts cos Um? And then After that, I
Speaker 1: think I went to UM. I ended up being president
Speaker 1: of Deaf Jam and Jeff Jam South you know as
Speaker 1: an a and on. Then I end up getting my
Speaker 1: label deal with had a label deal at Death Jam,
Speaker 1: and then after I left Death Jam label deal I
Speaker 1: had UM, I did a deal with Cash Money Universal,
Speaker 1: and after Cash Money Universal, I went to We're the
Speaker 1: Best epic. What I'm saying, so you know now, so
Speaker 1: describe described thus transition from catch so from catch. So
Speaker 1: that's what the reason why I'm bringing out all these
Speaker 1: deals is because I want to let the new artists know,
Speaker 1: even if you had a bad deal, be grateful, because
Speaker 1: I was grateful for every single deal I ever got,
Speaker 1: because it's a learning experience to get a better one,
Speaker 1: and after you get a better one, you learn more
Speaker 1: and you learn more. Me I'm a grateful guy. I
Speaker 1: don't have nobody ever did me wrong, nobody, not one person,
Speaker 1: because I am grateful for the opportunity. When you get
Speaker 1: an opportunity, is you gotta be grateful now, So no
Speaker 1: one did you wrong? In your eyes, No nobody get
Speaker 1: me wrong, because at the end of the days, we're
Speaker 1: all men, and at the end of the days, That's
Speaker 1: why I said, we can come to the table. Sometimes
Speaker 1: you grow, you know what I'm saying. Earlier in my career,
Speaker 1: I might have made my first deal, might have been
Speaker 1: twenty dollars. But look at me now. I'm a CEO,

Speaker 1: No bridges, only God I can walk on water. Don't
Speaker 1: burn a bridge. Only God can walk on water. The
Speaker 1: only time is I feel like it gets so serious.
Speaker 1: If somebody violates you, hurts you, you know, that's something
Speaker 1: to that point to your family, that's violation. These are
Speaker 1: opportunities I'm feeding my family. I don't call it the

Speaker 1: to show you know, I want to say this to you.

Speaker 1: So I got nothing but respect and I'm honored to
Speaker 1: be on here. I appreciate you. So let me just
Speaker 1: ask you when you got your first number one, right,
Speaker 1: was that a feeling like I made it? Or was
Speaker 1: it feeling like it's not enough? Well, um, I was
Speaker 1: I've been I should have a lot of number one
Speaker 1: radio number one, you know, because people because there's a
Speaker 1: Hot one hundred number one, Billboard Hot one hundred number one,
Speaker 1: and there's Billboard number one, radio number one. Okay, but
Speaker 1: your first number one like urban. And you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, I've been blessed to have a Hot one
Speaker 1: hundred number one, and I've been blessed to have an
Speaker 1: urban number one. I don't rhythmic number one. You know,
Speaker 1: I don't know why they label radio number one, but
Speaker 1: whatever they label it, I had it. And the reason
Speaker 1: why I'm saying that is because I want artists to
Speaker 1: know it's a blessing to get any number one. It's
Speaker 1: not about stunting um. But the first time I got
Speaker 1: my first radio number one was the best feeling in
Speaker 1: the world. Nor because I come from radio. Let's be clear,
Speaker 1: You and Ludicrous was probably the only people who transition.
Speaker 1: We're successful. We you know, we love a lot of
Speaker 1: people who came from radio transition and went to the
Speaker 1: artists mode. But a lot of people wasn't taking serious
Speaker 1: because I think him and are different though that what
Speaker 1: I mean is, you know, I'm not. What I mean
Speaker 1: is a lot of other people came from radio and
Speaker 1: then so many people they were so good at radio
Speaker 1: that people couldn't take them serious. And this is a
Speaker 1: different cases where both of them were great. Dude, I
Speaker 1: think Chris Love Love was great at radio. This is me, me, me,
Speaker 1: you know, to be I come from straight the streets, right,
Speaker 1: I'm saying, um, you know, ground up, not saying nobody
Speaker 1: else did. I'm saying like I came from is a
Speaker 1: witness to that. You're conking radio. Yeah, no, for sure.
Speaker 1: You know they told me I couldn't have a radio show.
Speaker 1: Had the number one radio show for over thirty fourteen
Speaker 1: years still to this day when I put even me,
Speaker 1: what I'm trying to tell you is me, the difference
Speaker 1: is for me, I can speak for caw it is.
Speaker 1: I didn't let nobody put me in the box. I
Speaker 1: knew I was gonna be an artist. I knew I
Speaker 1: was gonna be a great DJ. I knew I was
Speaker 1: gonna be a producer. I knew I was gonna be
Speaker 1: a and R. I knew I was gonna be a
Speaker 1: music exactly. You know what I'm saying. I knew I
Speaker 1: was gonna be a father. I knew I was gonna
Speaker 1: be everything I'm doing now and I have a lot
Speaker 1: more still to do. I knew and when I was
Speaker 1: coming up, they had people tell me that you will
Speaker 1: do none of this ship and you should only do
Speaker 1: one thing and that's it. And I'm like, no, I'm
Speaker 1: not doing that. I'm doing everything I want to do
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna do it big, you know I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So that's this important, man, because you know when it's music.
Speaker 1: Think about it. I should do street team. I should
Speaker 1: do street team for for this is the story. I
Speaker 1: should do street team for uh you know black Moon.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I just do everything Shampoo did,
Speaker 1: Street teams I did in Miami j once if I
Speaker 1: did it before that, I'm talking about like when before
Speaker 1: anybody before you knew me what I'm saying, Like I
Speaker 1: should do street Team Orlando, and yet I was doing
Speaker 1: the street team I was. You know I come from.
Speaker 1: I'm hip hop. So what I'm trying to tell you
Speaker 1: is but music, hip hop music. We could do so
Speaker 1: many things hip hop. We were executives, were marketers, were
Speaker 1: a radio programmers. Where why can't you be a DJ
Speaker 1: and a radio programmer? Why can't you be a DJ
Speaker 1: and the biggest music executive? Why can't you be a
Speaker 1: D And that guy runs real estate? Why can't you?
Speaker 1: You can do whatever you want to do? You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. That's what I'm trying to tell you.
Speaker 1: But where we come from, it's hip hop, and hip
Speaker 1: hop doesn't have one thing and so many things we're doing,
Speaker 1: you need a team. Like if nobody put an album out,
Speaker 1: somebody got to promote album, right, somebody gotta pass out
Speaker 1: the flies, right, everybody got different positions? Why can't we
Speaker 1: do them all? I did them all, you know I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I never relied on the I never relied on the
Speaker 1: promoter to hire me. When I used to d J,
Speaker 1: if Ian would tell you, I never relied on the
Speaker 1: promoter to hire me to DJ. I promoted my party parties. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and the fans came out and see me. I became
Speaker 1: a demand. The promoters want to hire me then, but
Speaker 1: I still was an entrepreneur. We're doing my parties too.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, So, what happens now? Because everything you're
Speaker 1: saying is fucking so dope? Right, But none of us
Speaker 1: has been experienced with this COVID nineteen thing, right, none
Speaker 1: of us? Right, what's the what's the new business model
Speaker 1: of trying how you to promote your new product? Now?
Speaker 1: That suppose because you know you said you couldn't really
Speaker 1: give us all the information of what happened, But let's
Speaker 1: suppose your strategy of promote when your next single is
Speaker 1: going to the club's going to Tipico, going to you know, uh,
Speaker 1: Dominican jumped out of me. I'm sorry, Dominican. Uh, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, let's most that's how you
Speaker 1: usually do it, Like you go to mangals and you
Speaker 1: go to you know whatever whatever, Right, but now we
Speaker 1: can't do that. How do we? I mean we have Drake.
Speaker 1: We made it clear that we have Drake the next
Speaker 1: single one. How do you how do you? How do you? Um?
Speaker 1: Are you thinking about the next Msiness model? Yeah? How
Speaker 1: do how do we have that plane go by? Yeah?
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right. I love your um. I never
Speaker 1: right now the pandemic. Thank you God. I am so
Speaker 1: grateful for you because you know, I know it's hard
Speaker 1: time for a lot of people and it's tougher, but
Speaker 1: I know we're gonna come out this stronger, better and
Speaker 1: greater because this is gonna make us greater because we're
Speaker 1: all experiencing this same thing at the same time. It's
Speaker 1: like rama Don for the world, for the world. So
Speaker 1: now did I just kill That's beautiful? I me coming
Speaker 1: up in the game. I never relied on the show
Speaker 1: m to pay my bills, even though even though I'm
Speaker 1: booked seven days a week. Not right now, because nobody
Speaker 1: to do. What I'm saying is but I always told myself,
Speaker 1: never rely on that ship because God forbid something like
Speaker 1: this happened. You're in trouble. What I'm saying, so I
Speaker 1: never relied. I so I always do so many things
Speaker 1: that goes back to me saying, don't just do one thing. Um,
Speaker 1: I feel like the pandemic. Social media is more than
Speaker 1: anything right now right and always the big thing because
Speaker 1: social media is everything basic but more than ever now correct.
Speaker 1: So what I'm saying, content goes through social media, Messages
Speaker 1: go through social media. UM. You know, we hope everybody
Speaker 1: puts out positivity through social media. Unfortunately, you have some
Speaker 1: negatives that we don't want to see, but we want
Speaker 1: more positive. What I'm trying to tell you is we
Speaker 1: have to now be creative. I'm saying, like, do social media.
Speaker 1: I did the other day, I did three Zoom concerts.
Speaker 1: They hired me for three Zoom concerts. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. It was, did a show from my backyard?
Speaker 1: You know, did a calg artist set, slash DJ set?
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Did that? Um? If it's
Speaker 1: promoting something we use our social media, we got. If
Speaker 1: it's music, you know what I'm saying. Um, thank God,
Speaker 1: you know the world changed. It's on streaming. Now you
Speaker 1: listen to your music. It's not like you you were
Speaker 1: allowed to jump on your car to listen to music.
Speaker 1: You can just grab your phone and this set the music.
Speaker 1: There's no excuse. But now, but that this shows you
Speaker 1: who's right. It shows you use a hug. Right now,
Speaker 1: we're doing drink h We're gonna be able to stream
Speaker 1: this on Title correct. We'll be able to see this
Speaker 1: on Revolt correct. Okay, you know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: we're not stop hushling. Now think about it. You built this,
Speaker 1: You're still gonna be able to a matter of fact,
Speaker 1: you might have more viewers. Now, that's what they say,
Speaker 1: because everybody's sitting down. Well, you would hope come to
Speaker 1: the right content boom boom. But you have to look
Speaker 1: past this ship me, I look past the pandemic right now.
Speaker 1: I'm looking to build my empire. Right now. I'm out
Speaker 1: of place in my life where we're so blessed that
Speaker 1: I'd be crazy not to level up even more. That
Speaker 1: means I'd be just lazy. I can't do that. I'm

Speaker 1: the next level. So I'm looking past this ship. What
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Um, but we gotta we got we we
Speaker 1: we gotta learn a lot from what happened with this pandemic.
Speaker 1: We have to learn because we're not in the club,

Speaker 1: said a lot of um quantity, but we need more.
Speaker 1: Um yeah, you know what I'm saying. It's just because

Speaker 1: this is I got, I got, I want you big one. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: You're gotta be careful. You gotta be careful that we do.
Speaker 1: I got so many beautiful friends, but so many beautiful
Speaker 1: friends that we make kids together. But right now I can't.
Speaker 1: I can't. No, I can't because I got too much love.
Speaker 1: Because obviously I make massive hits with Drake, I make
Speaker 1: massive hits with jay Z and Beyonce. I make massive
Speaker 1: hits with Rihanna. I make massive hits with Little Wayne.
Speaker 1: I make massive hits with Ross and make massihits with Future.
Speaker 1: I make massive with Chris Brown, I make I got
Speaker 1: too many artists at work with. So what's your what's
Speaker 1: your number one dream record? Maybe it's if somebody you
Speaker 1: never had before. Let's talk about the people I never want.
Speaker 1: I'm his friend. We've talked several times. She queered my
Speaker 1: sample for my last album. UM, I've always said I
Speaker 1: wanted to record. I want to do a show. Thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you. I want to I want to go a
Speaker 1: couple of times. Appreciate, appreciate. I was also sooning you videos.
Speaker 1: I'm so glad you didn't posted me because I was.
Speaker 1: I was dancing to it. I said post this. I
Speaker 1: love this record, though, but I want to work with Andre.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, um, I want to work with Rihanna again.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, I want to work with Rihanna again.
Speaker 1: It's like it's something I really really want to do.
Speaker 1: Um for a lot of reasons. I'm a fan. I
Speaker 1: love her. She she she shows me so much love.
Speaker 1: But we made such a big record together. We made
Speaker 1: such a big record together, and I believe in you know,
Speaker 1: when you got that great chemistry. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: why not give him up another one? What I'm saying,
Speaker 1: let's do another one. You know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: it's like I would love you know, Um, I want
Speaker 1: to do something with that that Dre mean. You know
Speaker 1: I was told Dre me and Dre talk several times
Speaker 1: and he told me, when you're ready, come check me.
Speaker 1: I'm saying, so I might. I want to make sure
Speaker 1: when I come do him, I come with something that
Speaker 1: we can collaborate. You know, that would make history. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Um, Yeah, you know what I'm
Speaker 1: saying that I think those are great names. Let me
Speaker 1: ask let's just say the next DJ, the kid that
Speaker 1: wants to be just like you, what is the business
Speaker 1: model that you do that nobody understands? How does a
Speaker 1: DJ producer make money doing these projects. As people would say, well,
Speaker 1: you maybe you gotta pay all the features. I mean producer,
Speaker 1: I mean as a producer, like if you you know,
Speaker 1: getting beat some people's albums. Me, when I came up
Speaker 1: in the game, I didn't charge no one but your
Speaker 1: A projects. I was wanting to say, It's like and
Speaker 1: a lot of Um, I didn't charge no one, but
Speaker 1: I got my publishing. You wanted to get the places
Speaker 1: people I always charged nobody because he's gonna get the published.
Speaker 1: Somebody paid me is because they loved me, and that
Speaker 1: he's paid me no matter what I asked for it. Um.
Speaker 1: But to my day, I would get my publishing. And
Speaker 1: I'm saying, um, so you know why did you do that?
Speaker 1: I mean, I just felt like I wanted to pay
Speaker 1: my dues and keep going. And it's like, do I
Speaker 1: care about ten thousand dollars? Do I care about fifteen?
Speaker 1: Do I care about five thousand? And in a time
Speaker 1: will come forty? It grows. But I'm talking about if
Speaker 1: I knew that I would get my publishing, and I
Speaker 1: know my relationship will grow. And I know if you
Speaker 1: have a good relationship, even if you don't charge they
Speaker 1: want you to make money because it's I'm not saying,
Speaker 1: you know it's wrong. The charge I'm just saying at
Speaker 1: the end of the day is, you know, and I'm
Speaker 1: talking about when I first started. I still do it
Speaker 1: like right now, if I gave you a record, I'm
Speaker 1: not charging you. I'm not charging noriega. I know I'm
Speaker 1: gonna getting my publishing whatever. That's you know that business
Speaker 1: model for the four albums on my albums is each
Speaker 1: thing is different. Um nine nine point nine is relationships.
Speaker 1: But we do make money together because we own our
Speaker 1: publisher's publishing, her publishing, my publishing, and we all split
Speaker 1: our publishing and we pray the record get bigger, the
Speaker 1: record get big that that money he was gonna give
Speaker 1: him a peanuts compared to the money that will grow
Speaker 1: when this ship is huge. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying, oh, don't charge for your beats. Nah,
Speaker 1: But I know if you have a good relationship with artists,
Speaker 1: you know that artist, if you make so many records,
Speaker 1: you don't have to tell him to pay. He's gonna
Speaker 1: pay you because he wanted he just he just he
Speaker 1: love you, she loves you. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: but yes, you can charge. It's nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 1: I'm saying me, I didn't call Kala, didn't Now if
Speaker 1: I don't know you, like if you if I don't
Speaker 1: know you, Yeah, it's different. But the takeaway is that
Speaker 1: publishing is the long term. Yeah, it's a long term
Speaker 1: because it's forever. That's why I tell you to make
Speaker 1: records that last forever. Make copyright records. Like every day
Speaker 1: I get a hundred emails about somebody want to licensed
Speaker 1: by records. Every day I get like, if I don't
Speaker 1: get twenty emails a day about songs I want to
Speaker 1: get licensed every day, I get it. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, licensed, license, like that. But that's just a
Speaker 1: certain part of of earnings. There's other earnings and what
Speaker 1: I'm saying radio performances, you know, you know licensing, Um,
Speaker 1: you know, just the royalties off the albums, how much
Speaker 1: it sells, and you know, obviously if it's your own album,
Speaker 1: you gotta recoup what you put in, and then you
Speaker 1: start profiting after you put in. What I'm saying, Um,
Speaker 1: so some people like to spend big, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. And then you know, if you make time
Speaker 1: this music. You're gonna make the money back pus a
Speaker 1: lot more. That's why I saw amazing to have catalog.
Speaker 1: I have a big catalog. I got eleven albums, So
Speaker 1: imagine all those records, A lot of those records on
Speaker 1: each album at least three or four big hits, right,
Speaker 1: So I'm saying they last forever. Thank you God. What
Speaker 1: I'm saying like, you know what I'm saying, Like, that's
Speaker 1: the keys, You know what I mean, that's the key
Speaker 1: you like forever, You're gonna hear the records. You're for real,
Speaker 1: did forever? You what I'm saying that it's nothing, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, It's just the way it is. Please, buddy,
Speaker 1: how are you sober and walking into ship? I understand.
Speaker 1: Let's leave that for the drug people. Bro, you're bugging,
Speaker 1: so go it. What is your favorite part of the game, man? Like, like,
Speaker 1: is it is it? Is it making the records? Or
Speaker 1: is it performing the records? And that's a trick for you.
Speaker 1: My favorite part of the game is when they tell
Speaker 1: me I can't do something. I mean, they say, you
Speaker 1: can't do it again, can't make this record, you can't
Speaker 1: pull this off, you can't do this you can't do that.
Speaker 1: You can't you can't become this, you can't that if
Speaker 1: you don't know Cali by now, if you tell me that,
Speaker 1: it might be the worst thing you ever say in
Speaker 1: your life, because now it's gonna get done and you
Speaker 1: just feel me to do it better. Yeah, it's like
Speaker 1: it's like you practice something. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So we're all going on. Did you see what happened
Speaker 1: with Swiss and uh Drake? I've seen um the blogs
Speaker 1: bogs and that was Do you think that, um? Because
Speaker 1: you have a wonderful relationship with Drake right, beautiful relations
Speaker 1: So I have a relationship with Swiss beats, beautiful relations relationship,
Speaker 1: So I can't see where they went wrong. Do you
Speaker 1: don't know nothing about it? I don't know nothing about No,
Speaker 1: I swear my mom and my kids. I don't know
Speaker 1: nothing about it. Called for I don't know nothing about it,
Speaker 1: um um, But you know I always pray for it
Speaker 1: at the hell if it's UM, I don't know what
Speaker 1: that what it is, I don't know. So I couldn't
Speaker 1: even I can't even come on it. But as a
Speaker 1: as a friend, as a brother, I wish beautiful guys
Speaker 1: and I pray to God that gets healed. What I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Um yeah, people, I suppoke to Sweat and I spoke
Speaker 1: to forty. Um. I didn't get a chance to speak
Speaker 1: to jobs. Great guy, um Buster told me spooked the chobs.
Speaker 1: But I wanted to nip that in the button immediately
Speaker 1: as a person that's hip hop and bassador. You should
Speaker 1: do that because you know, people know I tried to.
Speaker 1: I try immediately, and yeah, I do it all the
Speaker 1: time like that. That's just what it is. That's why
Speaker 1: I broke up. You know, the jeezy and most thing
Speaker 1: earlier is because I feel like we need more people
Speaker 1: like us. The thing is we respect love. Of course,
Speaker 1: you don't want listen, guys, we want love, man, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean straight up, especially in a time
Speaker 1: like this. Look what's going on in the world where like,
Speaker 1: if you don't want love right now and you ain't
Speaker 1: never been about love, that's that's what's gonna make the
Speaker 1: world survived, is love. You know what I'm saying. We
Speaker 1: gotta unify, we gotta be together. We need to listen
Speaker 1: to listen. I know you hear call and say love
Speaker 1: all the time. I mean it, I live it. Know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's impooring that we love each other.
Speaker 1: You know, we're all human. We all human, we all
Speaker 1: sometimes get out of characters. Sometimes it's and not that,
Speaker 1: but we need somebody beside us to either fix it
Speaker 1: or hear it up. But we need to. We we
Speaker 1: gotta love each other. And I know it sounds easy,
Speaker 1: but I I we we we gotta love each other. Man,

Speaker 1: look at all us doing. We all got big platforms,
Speaker 1: we all came up, we all um and we're still
Speaker 1: doing hip hop. What I'm saying, so like, I just
Speaker 1: think it's incredible. Did you did you think and be honest,
Speaker 1: coming from moving down from Orlando, did you see this
Speaker 1: vision for yourself? What was when I moved to Miami. Um,
Speaker 1: I knew it because I knew my hustle. I knew
Speaker 1: if I was just do what I do mean as
Speaker 1: and I knew I mean this in a humble way.
Speaker 1: I knew I was, I was great on the train,
Speaker 1: exist and I was I knew and I knew my
Speaker 1: hustle would inspire us. But at the same time as
Speaker 1: I knew I how to do it because I had
Speaker 1: no choice. Meaning that's in like you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: If I want to be able to have a family
Speaker 1: one day, you know this and that now got to
Speaker 1: provide And I gotta work hard. And if I want
Speaker 1: to live my dream, I can't dream it, I gotta
Speaker 1: I gotta bring it to light. So I just knew
Speaker 1: my my my hustle and my talent was was was
Speaker 1: a force. You know what I'm saying. And Um, I'm
Speaker 1: just I'm blessed at ut that everybody just like I said,
Speaker 1: like it was at support, You supported me, I supported you. Um.
Speaker 1: We we dealt with certain promoters, you know. We it
Speaker 1: was loyal with certain people, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And look how far it took us by being loyal,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Um. And you know, when
Speaker 1: you're so loyal and you're a good person, people love
Speaker 1: when you grow because they have nothing bad to say
Speaker 1: about you. And they know those days when it was
Speaker 1: really raining, they always think about that one person. And
Speaker 1: you know, I have a lot of friends that when
Speaker 1: it was raining for me and them, I was there
Speaker 1: and they were there. You know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: you know, I know that go a long way, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Now, real talk. You're saying, like
Speaker 1: if you know everybody that knows me, I'm still friends
Speaker 1: with everybody, ninety about nine of them, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Some of course, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: You know, it's just you know, you don't go right
Speaker 1: or something like that. Back then the day you know,
Speaker 1: love loss, you know, sometimes it's love from a distance,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean that happens with everyone, I'm saying,
Speaker 1: but um, at the end of the day, man, we bless.
Speaker 1: You know that he was supposed to be in the temple?
Speaker 1: Do you remember that story? I remember I wanted Nori bad,
Speaker 1: but I knew I was going through you. No, No,
Speaker 1: you got mad at us because I know we can't
Speaker 1: get them if we don't go through you. No, that
Speaker 1: wasn't the truth. That's not the way it happened. But well,
Speaker 1: I mean I remember, like I know, I wanted so bad.
Speaker 1: But this is a policy. It's like history, but it's history.
Speaker 1: It's it's yeah, what what what with the blue shirt? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you had already come to my stol but you were
Speaker 1: doing the CNN pro where it was your first Miami
Speaker 1: show as n O r E. And remember and this
Speaker 1: is this is invest in peace roll up because he
Speaker 1: was in the middle of all this. And it was
Speaker 1: a discrepancy where you thought, literally you thought that we
Speaker 1: had took Nori from your bill because we had done
Speaker 1: with Vitator. I think we I think we did promote
Speaker 1: and it got cut off. No, No, you had you
Speaker 1: gone and makes a six and you said, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: announce a surprise guest. But and then how big the
Speaker 1: temple was yeah, yeah, yeah, you were. You're hyping the
Speaker 1: surprise moment and if we weren'ted that, Nori bad. But
Speaker 1: while you're doing that, I'm dealing with Violator. I'm doing record.
Speaker 1: I didn't know nohould do street team, either one of you.
Speaker 1: But I'm just saying that this is what I think
Speaker 1: it's ill about. The situation of this was double a bit.
Speaker 1: So we all come to the record. Remember we all
Speaker 1: met to get records at Cream and all that, and
Speaker 1: then you stepped to Eddie. He was like, yo, y'all
Speaker 1: did me dirty. And we had just that day, we
Speaker 1: had just sent the deposit. We had just cleared everything
Speaker 1: with Violator, so we were happy we didn't know anything
Speaker 1: and sounds it sounds true because I always thank you.
Speaker 1: I'm so honest. I don't know how to whole nothing in.
Speaker 1: Don't you be rated any No, I'll come to the
Speaker 1: person and if you loved after it's just about I
Speaker 1: have to get out of my chest so I know
Speaker 1: if it's really love or not. I'm gonna think like, yo,
Speaker 1: you tried me. You trying me, we're throwing down and
Speaker 1: if you end up not throwing down, So enough like
Speaker 1: it almost went down, but love at the end of
Speaker 1: the day the other day, and it was after that
Speaker 1: because people told me, it's like me been had yea

Speaker 1: Ship was my ship? Was that ship? Man? I was
Speaker 1: last night. I was all in the comments with the
Speaker 1: fire and them too. It was with my brothers and
Speaker 1: I just got that felt real fucking um. That was
Speaker 1: so hip hop, you know, saying when Jada was playing
Speaker 1: and wrapping on some of the Beasts and then Fab
Speaker 1: you know, playing both don't playing street records and then
Speaker 1: you know, and they they had so much other hits,
Speaker 1: twenty four hours to live and all them Fab think,
Speaker 1: you know that's so much more. Um. But that's that's
Speaker 1: one of my favorite. That was like one of my favorite.
Speaker 1: Hyped him to be on versus noura'son lection, you know, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: don't look at me crazy. I don't know we rehearse
Speaker 1: this question that there's no rehearsing drink chance questions. I
Speaker 1: like that. This is a fact. Wiss called me as
Speaker 1: I'm comment I'm sending it means from Jada. I don't
Speaker 1: know why, because Jad is gonna call me. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be like, what's going on? Why you keep posting? Right?
Speaker 1: But that's my brother? Right? So then it Swiss calls
Speaker 1: me and says, yo, they keep talking about that Cam
Speaker 1: and Nori. That should be I'll be hell, hell, that's hell.
Speaker 1: You listen man, like they're celebrating your brother. This is
Speaker 1: a celebration everything every day. No, I know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: but that's it. Let me make my statement though, everything
Speaker 1: that's doping our community, it's doping our community. I could
Speaker 1: be a fan of it sometimes without participating in the
Speaker 1: actual thing if that's my choice. Listen, if they say, yo,
Speaker 1: would it, I'm with it, then I'll do it. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm with it. But if Cam says he's not what
Speaker 1: at all? Whatever, it's okay. I'm good with being a
Speaker 1: fan of I'm good with watching versus all that. Like
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe how much I was a fan of Um,
Speaker 1: Like the kildn't believe it, Like I was, like when
Speaker 1: I looked on I was like, seven minutes here, that's
Speaker 1: a classic. I was that one Bonny Beanie Fab and
Speaker 1: Jada Um because they're together favorite as you think, as
Speaker 1: you think that's your favorite because they're together. I mean
Speaker 1: all were incredible obviously what I'm saying, because you know,
Speaker 1: but um, they're my favor that those were my two favorite,
Speaker 1: probably because there's two recent ones. But to my butt,
Speaker 1: it just was they were together and it was like
Speaker 1: it was done, like it was done like like how
Speaker 1: it's supposed to be done. Meaning that's in as far
Speaker 1: as turntables in a mic and paying playing the catalog.
Speaker 1: They just sit there. They actually they took time for
Speaker 1: the fans and get a little more than just playing
Speaker 1: the record. They didn't have to do that. What I'm saying,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with you, I have to give
Speaker 1: it to h Bounty and Beanie Classic because the way
Speaker 1: they did it, now that's really they said it. That's like, explain,
Speaker 1: explain the difference, because that's how they really do it,
Speaker 1: Like you're going on the show, come to a really
Speaker 1: battle just like that, and they did. They eventually did.
Speaker 1: They did it a nice way on versus they should
Speaker 1: do it in a different way. But in front of
Speaker 1: talking about and cruise behind everybody's crew, behind each other ready,
Speaker 1: yeah yeah on the stages. I think that is beautiful
Speaker 1: right now. Wow, oh no, no, she used to be
Speaker 1: real deal. That's saying, wasn't real deal that I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: But you know that really at one point that's what
Speaker 1: made it so special that they had that back. But
Speaker 1: but besides that, that's how they really perform, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. With the rhythm and and that's just
Speaker 1: a special love Jamaica Dancehall. That sent me for life.
Speaker 1: That was incredible. Who would you like to see you
Speaker 1: on the verses, um, I feel like you and Fat
Speaker 1: Joe taking the same stance. Now, I'm I'm now, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't battle now. I don't even consider the battles a
Speaker 1: celebration because it is. I wouldn't me. I'll do it
Speaker 1: probably like like when I'm twenty years, like right now,
Speaker 1: I'm working on the twelfth album, right, I think it's
Speaker 1: probably what um so I would say. You know, everybody
Speaker 1: has a twenty year anniversary like bad Boy twenty years
Speaker 1: or uh, you know, will report, you know, saying like
Speaker 1: I want to do it again, like I think I
Speaker 1: would do it when I'm like fifty. Okay, so let's
Speaker 1: take you out of you know what I'm saying about
Speaker 1: anybody in reason why is because I just think it's
Speaker 1: great to remind people your catalog and it'd be dope,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, to get your flowers and
Speaker 1: take you out there crazy as a fan? Who would
Speaker 1: I want you want to see? And you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I give you a two part question because
Speaker 1: of your love for reggae, I wouldn't like to hear
Speaker 1: your reggae. I want to see Sisila and Capleton that's
Speaker 1: gonna be two legendary. Um. I would love to see
Speaker 1: boot you and shaa Yea. I would love to see um.
Speaker 1: You know those two are like powerful. Okay, now hip
Speaker 1: hop and hip hop M and again, I'm not saying
Speaker 1: these guys battling. This is celebration talking. He's an icon,
Speaker 1: he's are legends. I don't want you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: The reason why I say that is because we battled
Speaker 1: our whole life. Hm. You know what I'm saying, we battle.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know how I should. I was battle
Speaker 1: mentality my whole career. D J and Wise I'm saying like,
Speaker 1: but you know right now we're celebrating and we we
Speaker 1: we we we worked this hard to get here to
Speaker 1: not have the battle, you know what I'm saying. But
Speaker 1: that's when you become great, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But um, hip Hop Wise, who would I want to see?
Speaker 1: I would like to see um obvioulsly who wouldn't want
Speaker 1: to see the puffing Dre What I'm saying, that's the legendary? Um? Wait,

Speaker 1: even me, We take all our egos away and make
Speaker 1: music when you collaborate what I'm saying. And I've been

Speaker 1: speaking from an old generation of hip hop. We're coming
Speaker 1: from a generation we want to pick up our versions
Speaker 1: of hip hop. We want to make our versions the
Speaker 1: same versions of whatever the funk it is. And you
Speaker 1: know what, if we're looking at you like Quincy Jones,
Speaker 1: fucking exception to somebody could tell us we liars. And
Speaker 1: guess what, I don't think they can tell us. I
Speaker 1: don't think they can tell us we liars. Bro I

Speaker 1: with you and Joe Buden? What's there is discripancy? I
Speaker 1: don't have a problem with Joe Budden. I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: Joe Budden's Joe Biden. You know what I'm saying, Um,
Speaker 1: his job is is um. You know, I think when
Speaker 1: he was when he did speak on my name, because
Speaker 1: you know what's weird about Joe Buttons. He showed me love.
Speaker 1: He'll show me love like no, not that in person.
Speaker 1: He shows me love, Yes, by them out even on
Speaker 1: his shows. He showed me love. I can't take away
Speaker 1: when he shows love. But then he'll he'll I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess, throw darts or dissed me. But when he
Speaker 1: does diss me or throw darts, Um, he's misinformed. He's um.
Speaker 1: You know, doesn't have facts. And you know I come
Speaker 1: from I come from a cloth. You know I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna speak on nothing. And that's I'm ready to speak
Speaker 1: on that. And I know what I'm speaking on And
Speaker 1: you gotta know before you speak. You know, you gotta
Speaker 1: know what you're speaking. You know what I'm saying. I
Speaker 1: just think that's just as a as a human being,
Speaker 1: a man of respect. You know, you can easily call
Speaker 1: me and ask me a question. Um, if you can't
Speaker 1: get a hold of me what I'm saying, you you know,
Speaker 1: got a problem. What I'm saying about back the end
Speaker 1: of the day is like um, And you know what
Speaker 1: he does on the show, it's his business. God bless him,
Speaker 1: and God bless his success. And I hope he makes
Speaker 1: trillions of dollars are doing what he does. I want
Speaker 1: everybody to be rich forever, Ross Voice rich forever. You know. Um,
Speaker 1: but you know he shows me love. There's some days
Speaker 1: he don't shows me love. There's some days he don't.
Speaker 1: And you know, I can't sit down a lot of
Speaker 1: even say I watched the show like that. But when
Speaker 1: my name is be spoken, I guess it, it spikes out,
Speaker 1: not talk out on social media. So if you tag
Speaker 1: my name, I see it, I'm saying. So that's how
Speaker 1: I usually get to hear clips and then I'd be like,
Speaker 1: why he even how my name even coming up unless
Speaker 1: it's about something you know, love, because I don't. That's
Speaker 1: all I promote and not forget this promote and that's
Speaker 1: all I live by. You know what I'm saying, So, um,
Speaker 1: I don't know what it means. It's something you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know what I mean. I don't Just right,
Speaker 1: let's just be clear with you. When do an interview,
Speaker 1: what I do is I go to Twitter. And when
Speaker 1: I go to Twitter, because I wouldn't have went to
Speaker 1: Twitter with you because I wanted to keep our interview
Speaker 1: top secret. But when I went to Twitter after, I
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, I gotta guess coming up, and there
Speaker 1: was like, motherfucker, we know the guests coming up? We
Speaker 1: got college right boom? So there is to act? Yo,
Speaker 1: Is there a problem with him and Joe? I don't
Speaker 1: know what it was. I don't. I haven't absolutely no
Speaker 1: idea what it was. No, No, I mean I mean
Speaker 1: I said, like I said, I can't have a problem
Speaker 1: with somebody that I really don't know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Do I know? Do I know? But yes, I know him.
Speaker 1: I have not been in rooms with him and talk
Speaker 1: to him and we show each other love. You know
Speaker 1: what I mean. I know him for a long time.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, but I don't know you enough to
Speaker 1: diss you. And I'm not saying he might not think
Speaker 1: he dissed me. You know what I'm saying. He might
Speaker 1: think he's just doing his podcast. You know I'm saying me,
Speaker 1: I come from a different cloth period. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. I don't some ship. I just don't understand.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, because I'd be saying to
Speaker 1: myself when I do that, that's how I look at
Speaker 1: in anything, forget podcasts, forget in life. I say when
Speaker 1: I do that, But I gotta remember not everybody's me
Speaker 1: right what I'm saying. That's something that I have to
Speaker 1: learn more. I can't think everybody's gonna move the way
Speaker 1: I move. Um, but again, he's doing it. That's what
Speaker 1: he does for a living. But um, you gotta know
Speaker 1: your facts. You know what I mean. You have to
Speaker 1: know your facts when you speak. You know what I mean,
Speaker 1: because if you're speaking the truth. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: You know, ship, If I need to address something, I'll
Speaker 1: come on the show and look in your face. But
Speaker 1: I can't respect somebody that's gonna, you know, not know
Speaker 1: the facts and not know the truth. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Again, Um, he shows me love, I can't.
Speaker 1: I can't say he don't. But then you know, there's
Speaker 1: times I guess maybe he's having a bad day, bad movie.

Speaker 1: you don't even know what the going on. So it's
Speaker 1: like st from like everybody cooling it background, like oh,
Speaker 1: this camera's are to some I'm trying to figure out
Speaker 1: what we're doing because let me take over. Let me
Speaker 1: take over from there, because you know why I call it,
Speaker 1: I'm honest, bro, one of the biggest people in our
Speaker 1: culture and I we not just me I'm sorry, I
Speaker 1: but say I want to. When I say I want to,
Speaker 1: I mean dream chance. We should cover every step over
Speaker 1: your fucking journey because you know why, we're proud of
Speaker 1: every step your and not only that, we're proud of it.
Speaker 1: We knew it from there, we knew listening, we knew
Speaker 1: it from here to there. But we want to be here. Well,
Speaker 1: it's actually you know where we like I'm we're malleible
Speaker 1: and I told you that my house is right here
Speaker 1: and there and you're like my house r here like that,
Speaker 1: But we're here with you right now and wherever we
Speaker 1: started or you started, but we're both together right here.
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, you're the biggest in the game.
Speaker 1: And let me interject a little bit because seeing your
Speaker 1: whole journey, when when DJ's and we all come from
Speaker 1: the same place, there's always gonna be that competitive spirit,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like that there's the dj
Speaker 1: K you know what speak speaking of competitive you know,
Speaker 1: early in my career I would say, you know, it
Speaker 1: was a competitive spirit early, But now I don't compete.
Speaker 1: I just don't. But you know what I'm saying, I've
Speaker 1: got about that because the thing I was just telling
Speaker 1: that to my girl the other day. I was like,
Speaker 1: Mom's you know, I'm so happy. You know, when I'm
Speaker 1: making my music and stuff, I'm like, I'm so happy
Speaker 1: with how much we have accomplished. And I think I
Speaker 1: put it on Instagram and I said, I could retire
Speaker 1: like jay Z and Michael Jordan's right now, and I'd
Speaker 1: be happy with everything I've accomplished and grateful for all
Speaker 1: my blessings. And I'm be very happy, like literally happy.
Speaker 1: But guys like me got more love and more blessings
Speaker 1: to continue to put out because of the love of
Speaker 1: me loving music hip hop. You know what I'm saying, love,
Speaker 1: You know I love this ship. You have to love
Speaker 1: this ship to really do this ship on the levels
Speaker 1: that we're doing this, Because you have to really love it.
Speaker 1: I'm saying. If you don't, I don't, I don't recommend
Speaker 1: you doing it. You know, this ship gotta come from love.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying. I didn't want to interrupt you, but
Speaker 1: it was Craig. I said, I felt like I could
Speaker 1: retire like Michael. I said, I feel like Hove and
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan's. I can retire and I can come back
Speaker 1: any time. I want, and that goes back and saying,
Speaker 1: you know, I always work hard to try to not
Speaker 1: try going to be and timeless, I'm saying timeless, And
Speaker 1: I'm always gonna put out music that's impactful, what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: and and everything outside of music, I'm gonna do impactful
Speaker 1: and time was as well, know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: that's where I'm at in my life, what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: And that's why I say I'm a student of a
Speaker 1: jigga and a pup daddy. They come back anytime they want,
Speaker 1: know that you know what I'm saying, and know that
Speaker 1: they don't have to, but they love it so much
Speaker 1: that they keep blessing us. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But you know, but the point that I was trying
Speaker 1: to make is that competitive spirit that we all come from,
Speaker 1: which is a part of hip hop I'm saying, and
Speaker 1: so and more locally, US DJ is like where it
Speaker 1: be DJ Abs and us and and all they were brothers,
Speaker 1: but it was competitive. But what I think is so
Speaker 1: dope is that you'd be hard pressed to find someone
Speaker 1: from Miami that I can't appreciate your journey, I can't
Speaker 1: support your journey, can't say that you're not repping the
Speaker 1: home teams. What I'm saying at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: like it would only be complete hate to not understand
Speaker 1: what you've done and doing. Man, that's what I'm saying, everybody, everybody.
Speaker 1: That's that's all we asked for is what he said.
Speaker 1: And um and you know, beautiful because that's that's that's
Speaker 1: that's that's love. I mean a lot to me. That's
Speaker 1: that's that's a sound bite for me. Iri. I think
Speaker 1: you know we man, I hit crazy on the Instagram
Speaker 1: of the day, all of us from Miami. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, We rep Miami so hall because we
Speaker 1: love Miami and we and that's what's so beautiful my sameing.
Speaker 1: Other cities don't do the same. But you know we're
Speaker 1: talking because we I'm passionate about our hometown and this
Speaker 1: is our home. Um, it feels so good to screen
Speaker 1: three o five Miami and how far we came, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, day count I don't know what
Speaker 1: the fund is that ship on your ship I got,
Speaker 1: I got you. You're gonna get on soon. No, eventually,
Speaker 1: one thing. So I feel like we covered. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: we we we definitely covered um, but you got this
