Man, speaking of your right hand, man, 714 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: I hear a lot of people speculate about this, but 715 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,720 Speaker 1: I don't think nobody would have the type of insight 716 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,919 Speaker 1: that you will have to answer this question figuratively speak. 717 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: And if the pimp was still here, how do you 718 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 1: think he would would fit in today's society and nrtive 719 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: and whether it be music or just in general it 720 00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 1: bootell steroids, it would be boot sell steroids, social media, 721 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 1: it would be boot sell steroids content and everything like that. 722 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: You know, Pimp understood who he was and how he 723 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 1: was seen in this world. And you can listen to 724 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,959 Speaker 1: some of the last songs he was talking about Pimp 725 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: and ain't dead. He just moved me to websight. You 726 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. He was getting well where ship 727 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:40,759 Speaker 1: was going at and Pimp would have been. I know 728 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: it's gonna sound crazy if if, like I think it 729 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 1: was Snoop that just said only fans offered him a 730 00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 1: bunch of money to get on there show his dick 731 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: or whatever. That's you know what I'm saying. Wow, I 732 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: could if he wasn't married, but she was married. He 733 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: had a good wife. She was very very low to 734 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 1: him and got a good wife. But in this only 735 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,280 Speaker 1: Fans era, Pipsey would have been making some money somewhere, 736 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 1: some kind of way, like somewhere between Boost and sut Walker, 737 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: you would have like, well, actually not even in between, 738 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 1: but like on the outer parameters, because he operated on 739 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 1: them on the furthest like we're gonna go there, We're 740 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: going all the way there. Fuck it. Because it would 741 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,359 Speaker 1: have been money involved, you know what I'm saying. I'm 742 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 1: not saying he would have showed his dick, but I 743 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,800 Speaker 1: think some hose would have been showing something like it 744 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:34,919 Speaker 1: would have been some money there, you know what I'm saying. 745 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 1: For me, he would have found a way take advantage of. 746 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 1: But then also, you know, social media can be your 747 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: downfall too, because everybody ain't gonna always agree with everything 748 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 1: that you say. But I think the music would have 749 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:51,360 Speaker 1: been amazing to see him have an opportunity to produce 750 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: for a lot of people. I think him and Drake 751 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 1: would have had a phenomenon relationship to light skinned niggas 752 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 1: that can rap, and I think the synergy is just 753 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: would have just been really really ridiculous, you know what 754 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 1: I'm saying. And also niggas like Future that was just 755 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,399 Speaker 1: young and wild and getting to the paper and moving 756 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 1: a certain way. I think you know, people like that 757 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: would have gained a lot from being up under a 758 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 1: person like Pimp because, you know, the guy that one 759 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 1: of the first people to find future was one of 760 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 1: my right hand people back in the day, you know, 761 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 1: So the proximity that he would have had to a 762 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: lot of talent today would have really altered the direction 763 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 1: of the thing. But then I think it was a 764 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: lot of shit that he wouldn't have been cool with too, 765 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: you know. But man, I think about you know, Megan 766 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 1: the Stallion produced by PIMPC. Think about Sexy Red and 767 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 1: PEMC on a record. These are natural things that obviously 768 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,840 Speaker 1: would have happened that I look at, you know. But 769 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 1: also like on the R and B side, you know, 770 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 1: he was he was very much a singer, and I 771 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 1: think today's R and B lends himself a lot to 772 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 1: what he was, what he was doing, you know what 773 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 1: I'm saying.

We was all trying 802 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:27,959 Speaker 1: to make music. We all wanted to be in the game. 803 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 1: And then life started pulling people in different directions and 804 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: me and him kind of looked up.

That was the 833 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 1: only person we could call about that was us. Now 834 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: I'm not saying they wasn't a part of helping us 835 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 1: do this company, but lots of people work, But it's 836 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 1: just that there was just times where y'all could go 837 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 1: home and kind of separate from it, and we had 838 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 1: to kind of live it every single day. So me 839 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:05,799 Speaker 1: and him always had that between us. And then it 840 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 1: was the music. The chemistry was just it's bananas and 841 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 1: it's really I could say, and it sounded like cap 842 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 1: But if you ask anybody that was ever in the 843 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 1: studio with us around and the time that we made 844 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 1: those music, those songs, those albums, we would be in 845 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,919 Speaker 1: the same room, right into the same song and would 846 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 1: not have to I wouldn't have to tell him where 847 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:28,600 Speaker 1: I'm man, unless it was something that was structured for 848 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 1: him to go right after me or something so he'd 849 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:32,879 Speaker 1: have to know my left. But we say we want 850 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 1: to talk about calls, we can write a whole song 851 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 1: about cars. I ain't got to ask him what he 852 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: saying because he don't like the same kind of cause 853 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: I like, he ain't gonna do in the call what 854 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 1: I'm doing, you know what I'm saying. So we ain't 855 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 1: like the same type of women. A song about girls, Okay, 856 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this, this type of girl. He wanted 857 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 1: to do that with several women and whatever it was, 858 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But we the only thing 859 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 1: we really had in common was getting the where the 860 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: fuck we were trying to go.

And this whole Free pimpc shit was getting 1016 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:41,400 Speaker 1: momentum and energy, which I just watched what Eminem and 1017 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 1: g Unit was doing with Free Yayo. There wasn't no 1018 00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 1: you know, raise for me.

I said, we can do this. 1022 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 1: I know a bunch of niggas aware of Free Pimp 1023 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:01,760 Speaker 1: Sea shirt and stay for see, And I just carried 1024 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 1: the message from artists to artist, album to album.

So 1028 00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:15,879 Speaker 1: the whole time I'm getting energy and momentum, I'm letting 1029 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:19,319 Speaker 1: niggas know it's still a UGK for life. There were 1030 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,239 Speaker 1: people that literally tried to convince me, if you want 1031 00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 1: to leave, you could go because Pemple was not in 1032 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 1: the best place when he got locked up. There was 1033 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,480 Speaker 1: a lot of behavior that I didn't agree with at 1034 00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,880 Speaker 1: the time, and so people literally trying to talk. I 1035 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 1: was like, well, no, nothing to do that now. If 1036 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 1: I had a problem with what the man was doing, 1037 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:40,319 Speaker 1: I had plenty of time to say I don't want 1038 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:41,840 Speaker 1: to fuck with this no more. I knew how the 1039 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:43,440 Speaker 1: man was living out, you know, I didn't have a 1040 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:46,040 Speaker 1: problem with as long as it didn't interrupt with dependness 1041 00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 1: and it wasn't his family.

Take this with your cold. But you 1057 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:51,440 Speaker 1: know we got the great. The craziest thing about all 1058 00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 1: this stuff I'm saying is that there's a witness in 1059 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:56,680 Speaker 1: the room that can tell you whether or not I'm lying. 1060 00:53:56,719 --> 00:53:59,959 Speaker 1: It's Cormo. Corymo was around for the majority of this ship, 1061 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:02,919 Speaker 1: and I'm talking about when he became age appropriate. Corey 1062 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:06,040 Speaker 1: Mole's big brother, Mike Mole, was Pimp's right hand for 1063 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:08,480 Speaker 1: a while, helping him, were recording and moving and do 1064 00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 1: a lot of different things. And then as Corey got older, 1065 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 1: Curry come around. You know, I made beets. Good for you, Corey, 1066 00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:16,400 Speaker 1: good for you, little man. Keep it up and not 1067 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:20,640 Speaker 1: nigga called Corey og but you know, not dugs, a niggas, 1068 00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 1: a couple of niggas. You know, not everybody, but it is. 1069 00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 1: But Corey get testified on a lot of shit that 1070 00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:28,759 Speaker 1: I'm talking about, the good and the bad. And in 1071 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:30,800 Speaker 1: spite of all of that, we kept this shit together. 1072 00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 1: Because that was all that really mattered to me, was 1073 00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:37,359 Speaker 1: keeping this shit together. I saw so many groups break up. 1074 00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 1: I saw so much petty shit, break shit up. I 1075 00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:44,160 Speaker 1: saw real shit break shit up. I saw niggas start 1076 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 1: to grow in different directions. I never wanted that for us. 1077 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:48,879 Speaker 1: I knew me and Pimp wasn't the same nigga when 1078 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:50,760 Speaker 1: we started. We wasn't the same niggas in high school. 1079 00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:53,279 Speaker 1: We weren't the same niggas as grown men. That was 1080 00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:55,880 Speaker 1: not a problem for me. That didn't mean not to 1081 00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:58,120 Speaker 1: fuck with this man. I knew he did shit different 1082 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:00,439 Speaker 1: than I did shit. That did not mean don't fuck 1083 00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 1: with the man, because when you start judging people, that's 1084 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,200 Speaker 1: something wrong with you, you know what I'm saying. Like 1085 00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:06,799 Speaker 1: I said, as long as people show up to work, 1086 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:09,320 Speaker 1: as long as people don't bring their bullshit to work, 1087 00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:12,719 Speaker 1: long people treat they family, fine, I really don't see 1088 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:15,200 Speaker 1: what the problem is, you know what I'm saying. It's 1089 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,839 Speaker 1: only until it affects the family or the job. When 1090 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 1: you start you gotta start checking yourself. But look, man, 1091 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,000 Speaker 1: we loved each other. We didn't have to like each 1092 00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:27,520 Speaker 1: other all the time. And that's a big misconception. You know, 1093 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:29,760 Speaker 1: me and Pep didn't even live in the same city 1094 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: for at least a dozen years. You know, I was 1095 00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:36,160 Speaker 1: in Atlanta, first he was at home, then I came back, 1096 00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:38,400 Speaker 1: then he moved to Atlanta. You know what I'm saying. 1097 00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:40,879 Speaker 1: But there would be times where we probably wouldn't see 1098 00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:43,760 Speaker 1: each other for two months, two or three months in person. 1099 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:45,920 Speaker 1: We talk on the phone or whatever. But get there. 1100 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,120 Speaker 1: What's up, bro, shit boop boop? All right, pee wee, 1101 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:50,120 Speaker 1: let's get it and get on stage and rap. You 1102 00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:52,080 Speaker 1: think me and this nigga been around each other all week. 1103 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:54,600 Speaker 1: There was no need to force the friendship, bro, We 1104 00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:59,759 Speaker 1: were that already, you know. So outside of whatever people 1105 00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:02,440 Speaker 1: think or people felt, or people read or whatever this 1106 00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:05,319 Speaker 1: shit was, I love Chad. Chad loved me, and at 1107 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,280 Speaker 1: the end of the day, that's all that really mattered. 1108 00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:09,400 Speaker 1: And the last thing we said to each other was 1109 00:56:09,440 --> 00:56:11,799 Speaker 1: I love you. I love you too. That's the last 1110 00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 1: thing he said to me. It's the last thing I 1111 00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:16,800 Speaker 1: said to him. So I have closure in the situation 1112 00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 1: not being said, of course, I miss him and trying 1113 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:24,480 Speaker 1: not to cry this whole time because it's so overwhelming 1114 00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:31,640 Speaker 1: how impactful his life was. I see rap niggers all 1115 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:35,400 Speaker 1: the time. I see that Digger, I look at Jerry, 1116 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:38,920 Speaker 1: I see that Dick, I look at clothes costs. He 1117 00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 1: left so much for these diggers, niggas a millionaires, they 1118 00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:47,880 Speaker 1: bosses because he left for blueprint for niggas. I'm better 1119 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 1: because there was a blueprint, showed me how to do 1120 00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:53,480 Speaker 1: this shit, put the shit together when he wasn't around, 1121 00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:56,520 Speaker 1: and he would have wanted these niggas to win. He 1122 00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:00,919 Speaker 1: wanted niggas to not be not talk shit on each other, 1123 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:06,360 Speaker 1: get to the paper, get your motherfucking money. These thinks 1124 00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:10,600 Speaker 1: getting so much money nowadays, it's ridiculous. I know that 1125 00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:15,000 Speaker 1: nigga love this shit. No we do.

I grew up with you know, losing 1130 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 1: many men in my family to violence and drugs. And 1131 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:33,880 Speaker 1: I ain't never had to look at nobody outside of 1132 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:36,480 Speaker 1: my family and want to be like nobody. Pimpce is 1133 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 1: the only person I ever looked at that was an 1134 00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 1: entertainer that I wanted to be like.

That was his motto. That's how 1162 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:14,080 Speaker 1: he walked through life. And he was gonna be him 1163 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,360 Speaker 1: and move like how we moved. And you either was 1164 00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:19,120 Speaker 1: gonna like it and rock with him, or you wasn't 1165 00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:20,919 Speaker 1: gonna like it, and like you're saying, it's a fight 1166 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:23,880 Speaker 1: under that, you know.

He want niggas that thought like him to 1172 00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:43,120 Speaker 1: be great, that came from where he came from to 1173 00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:52,280 Speaker 1: be great. He was so selfless. Niggas a't appreciate it. 1174 00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:57,160 Speaker 1: They thought it was just rap and music that it was, 1175 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:02,440 Speaker 1: but he wanted the best niggas, especially in the South. 1176 01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:06,760 Speaker 1: We spent a lot of time not being appreciated, and 1177 01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:09,600 Speaker 1: he ain't walked the next niggas to go through it. 1178 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:13,600 Speaker 1: So That's why he started saying country rap tunes and 1179 01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:15,680 Speaker 1: all that shit, because he wanted niggas to have pride 1180 01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 1: from where they're from, and if they didn't feel accepted, 1181 01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:22,360 Speaker 1: it didn't mean they weren't supposed to be there. That's 1182 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:25,320 Speaker 1: what that shit was really about. And now niggas walk 1183 01:00:25,360 --> 01:00:28,680 Speaker 1: through this game and get big money and hold they 1184 01:00:28,760 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 1: nuts and they ain't got to say they from the 1185 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,160 Speaker 1: South or that they made it inspite it being from 1186 01:00:33,200 --> 01:00:36,960 Speaker 1: the South.

You got 1507 01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:08,920 Speaker 1: to sit down in the room and all that. She say, Oh, 1508 01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:11,160 Speaker 1: so that's why the stage got the sofa and everything. 1509 01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:19,479 Speaker 1: Nigga I was two days old when I realized that 1510 01:16:20,040 --> 01:16:23,000 Speaker 1: this ship was a replication down to the ship on 1511 01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:28,080 Speaker 1: the hang Off ship completely. But here's why. Because I 1512 01:16:28,120 --> 01:16:31,200 Speaker 1: watched it from the side. I didn't watch it from 1513 01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:35,360 Speaker 1: the crowd, so I didn't get this perspective. I'm gonna 1514 01:16:35,360 --> 01:16:38,000 Speaker 1: watching you niggas being silly, But from the side of 1515 01:16:38,080 --> 01:16:40,400 Speaker 1: the stage it never but keep to me fast.

The only project that I don't think you 1529 01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:34,479 Speaker 1: recorded me at all for Corey WO was no mixtape. 1530 01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:37,640 Speaker 1: I think you didn't do that, and and so that 1531 01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:40,760 Speaker 1: was the freestyle album.

It's not it's not the number 1538 01:18:04,760 --> 01:18:08,160 Speaker 1: of songs, it's how quick we do these. Yes, I 1539 01:18:08,240 --> 01:18:10,880 Speaker 1: try to come after traffic. It's done in the morning, 1540 01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:13,880 Speaker 1: but I need to be gone before track. You got 1541 01:18:14,040 --> 01:18:17,880 Speaker 1: picks up and all that shit. I wake up full 1542 01:18:17,920 --> 01:18:19,320 Speaker 1: of them. I'm ready to go when I wake up 1543 01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:21,320 Speaker 1: in the morning, I'm a bundle the motherfucking energy, like 1544 01:18:21,360 --> 01:18:25,880 Speaker 1: they say. I landed in Atlanta at eleven fifteen. I 1545 01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:28,639 Speaker 1: got to the studio at twelve o'clock. I laid two 1546 01:18:28,760 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 1: verses and a hook and left the studio at twelve 1547 01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:35,080 Speaker 1: thirty and came here. But you said that, and I'm 1548 01:18:35,120 --> 01:18:37,479 Speaker 1: going to the studio as soon as I leave here. 1549 01:18:37,680 --> 01:18:40,360 Speaker 1: I've seen you say that it don't take you long, 1550 01:18:40,520 --> 01:18:44,160 Speaker 1: the rap like it don't take you long. So do 1551 01:18:44,240 --> 01:18:48,920 Speaker 1: you think that, Well, where does that come from? Say, 1552 01:18:50,320 --> 01:18:52,720 Speaker 1: having something to say. That's the only thing that complicates 1553 01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:54,439 Speaker 1: you when you have writers like you really got shit 1554 01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:57,599 Speaker 1: to say. That's what writing block is. It's not a 1555 01:18:57,600 --> 01:19:01,160 Speaker 1: block of thoughts, it's a lack of thoughts. You ain't 1556 01:19:01,200 --> 01:19:04,479 Speaker 1: taking in enough information. You're not interacting enough with the world. 1557 01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:06,519 Speaker 1: You're not paying attention to what's around you. So you 1558 01:19:06,560 --> 01:19:08,439 Speaker 1: really ain't got nothing to talk about. But what's inside 1559 01:19:08,479 --> 01:19:11,360 Speaker 1: your fault walk and that's gonna run drive very very quickly. 1560 01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:15,439 Speaker 1: So you've got to be out man. You got to 1561 01:19:15,479 --> 01:19:17,320 Speaker 1: be reading, you got to be watched, you got to 1562 01:19:17,360 --> 01:19:19,479 Speaker 1: be talking, you got to be seeing. You got to 1563 01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:21,599 Speaker 1: take in the world. If you don't take in the world, 1564 01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:24,040 Speaker 1: what the fuck are you talking about? You end up 1565 01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:29,080 Speaker 1: just making up shit. That's the problem. People not taking 1566 01:19:29,080 --> 01:19:31,560 Speaker 1: in enough information. And you don't have to be old. 1567 01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:33,880 Speaker 1: That's a very big misconception. You don't have to live 1568 01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:37,639 Speaker 1: long to have wisdom. Wisdom don't come from being old 1569 01:19:37,680 --> 01:19:41,280 Speaker 1: and smart. Wisdom comes from seeing things as they really 1570 01:19:41,320 --> 01:19:43,479 Speaker 1: happened in the world and learning how to adjust to 1571 01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:45,920 Speaker 1: these things. That's where wisdom come from. And not for 1572 01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:53,240 Speaker 1: being perfect and smart. It's about for being imperfect, but resourceful. Yes, sir, 1573 01:19:53,600 --> 01:20:01,720 Speaker 1: so I'm sorry, I ain't mean, but I would say, 1574 01:20:01,760 --> 01:20:04,760 Speaker 1: I would say to answer your question, seven, would that 1575 01:20:04,840 --> 01:20:10,520 Speaker 1: be safe? And then they given us the least man 1576 01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:12,640 Speaker 1: because I'm not in the studio all day. I'm not 1577 01:20:12,640 --> 01:20:15,120 Speaker 1: trying to do all that ship all day. I'm not 1578 01:20:15,400 --> 01:20:17,519 Speaker 1: Most people go to the studio to avoid a home. 1579 01:20:18,680 --> 01:20:20,519 Speaker 1: I work very hard to get to a house that 1580 01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:23,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to leave. I'm not trying to leave. 1581 01:20:23,360 --> 01:20:29,920 Speaker 1: People understand that, God, sir, Yes, sir, I feel that's 1582 01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:34,000 Speaker 1: the whole point of it. Man, work hard enough to 1583 01:20:34,400 --> 01:20:37,040 Speaker 1: to get the home that you can retire in. I 1584 01:20:37,200 --> 01:20:42,439 Speaker 1: learned that from Bruce's meetings. I'm seeing he spent all 1585 01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:44,479 Speaker 1: that money trying to find the room he could die in. 1586 01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:47,799 Speaker 1: Right and at the end, when all the money was gone, 1587 01:20:48,520 --> 01:20:51,479 Speaker 1: the woman had finally given him, He's like, this is it. 1588 01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:54,360 Speaker 1: This is the room I could die in. That imprinted 1589 01:20:54,439 --> 01:20:57,280 Speaker 1: on me. I want to work hard enough to get 1590 01:20:57,320 --> 01:21:00,160 Speaker 1: the money to get the house that I want the 1591 01:21:00,280 --> 01:21:03,040 Speaker 1: dying that'll be the next house. I got a nice 1592 01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:07,080 Speaker 1: house right now, but the burger Burger house, Burger house. 1593 01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:13,880 Speaker 1: We want some yard yard. I don't want a bigger house. 1594 01:21:13,920 --> 01:21:17,360 Speaker 1: I want a bigger, bigger. I don't need no more house, 1595 01:21:17,400 --> 01:21:23,559 Speaker 1: ain't but me and Hun. Yes, that's where's that? I mean? Yeah, 1596 01:21:24,200 --> 01:21:28,759 Speaker 1: to move everything. I don't know already. I don't already 1597 01:21:28,760 --> 01:21:30,360 Speaker 1: started plotting down there. I'm coming. 1598 01:21:34,160 --> 01:21:37,320 Speaker 4: You got to be an executive, right, Jim, Yes, work 1599 01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:38,519 Speaker 4: on the executive side. 1600 01:21:38,560 --> 01:21:40,880 Speaker 1: So somebody who had bad. 1601 01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:43,800 Speaker 4: Record deals and didn't get to work as an executive, 1602 01:21:44,439 --> 01:21:47,760 Speaker 4: Like where do those worlds can lie at? So what 1603 01:21:47,800 --> 01:21:49,600 Speaker 4: I did, I was basically the A and R for 1604 01:21:49,680 --> 01:21:53,600 Speaker 4: Depth Jam South. So by the time I come into it, 1605 01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:56,439 Speaker 4: you didn't already sign your deal. I can't really do 1606 01:21:56,520 --> 01:21:58,760 Speaker 4: nothing about that. If you ain't signed a good deal, 1607 01:21:58,840 --> 01:22:00,720 Speaker 4: I can't really do nothing about it. And I can't 1608 01:22:00,760 --> 01:22:02,719 Speaker 4: knack you because I signed one of the words Disney History. 1609 01:22:02,920 --> 01:22:06,200 Speaker 4: So yeah, it's pretty bad. It's pretty bad. We'll get 1610 01:22:06,240 --> 01:22:07,320 Speaker 4: to that, like, it's pretty bad. 1611 01:22:07,720 --> 01:22:10,880 Speaker 1: But you're still dealing with it now, my dear, My 1612 01:22:10,920 --> 01:22:14,960 Speaker 1: record there is bad one. Yeah. I'm still in debt, 1613 01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:17,439 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying the way my splitz word 1614 01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:20,000 Speaker 1: and everything. I'm still in debt for about two million dollars. 1615 01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:23,400 Speaker 1: But I've also been around long enough that my catalog 1616 01:22:23,479 --> 01:22:27,040 Speaker 1: will my catalog will revert to me and my balance 1617 01:22:27,120 --> 01:22:30,200 Speaker 1: will go to zero. Because I'm what they call a 1618 01:22:30,280 --> 01:22:33,519 Speaker 1: legacy artist. I was signed before two thousand. The only 1619 01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:38,479 Speaker 1: reason that it hasn't all reverted and I haven't got 1620 01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:42,120 Speaker 1: my zero balance yet is because UGK took money after 1621 01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:45,000 Speaker 1: two thousand, you know what I'm saying. So we took 1622 01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:48,800 Speaker 1: money in two thousand and seven, so technically there's seven 1623 01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:51,599 Speaker 1: years on the end of where we should have stopped. 1624 01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:56,280 Speaker 1: So I think from here is twenty four, might be 1625 01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:58,960 Speaker 1: twenty seven or twenty eight, something like that. I think 1626 01:22:59,000 --> 01:23:01,240 Speaker 1: all of this stuff is going to start reverting back. 1627 01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:03,080 Speaker 1: I could be wrong by a year or two, but 1628 01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:05,120 Speaker 1: I also know that's when you care be eligible for 1629 01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:07,360 Speaker 1: the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Boy. Now, what do 1635 01:23:21,840 --> 01:23:24,320 Speaker 1: you think, Ben, As though you'd have been rapping for 1636 01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:26,599 Speaker 1: so long, do you have a favorite pimpcil. I mean 1637 01:23:26,640 --> 01:23:31,439 Speaker 1: a favorite bun Bee verse that you've done. I do 1638 01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:33,880 Speaker 1: like if you had to put one in a in 1639 01:23:33,960 --> 01:23:36,320 Speaker 1: a time capsule when they open it up, that defines 1640 01:23:36,360 --> 01:23:38,240 Speaker 1: you when they listen to it with you. Oh now 1641 01:23:38,280 --> 01:23:42,360 Speaker 1: you say defined me? You asked what my favorite was. Goddamn, 1642 01:23:42,400 --> 01:23:44,719 Speaker 1: the one that defined me got to be like highlight 1643 01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:49,000 Speaker 1: for some ship like that. I think. I think Blood 1644 01:23:49,040 --> 01:23:52,240 Speaker 1: on the Dash with your record I recorded with Gary 1645 01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:56,160 Speaker 1: Clark Jr. I think that's a very very interesting record 1646 01:23:56,320 --> 01:24:00,360 Speaker 1: because it's a record about a police interaction from the 1647 01:24:00,400 --> 01:24:03,000 Speaker 1: perspective of the officer and the perspective of the person 1648 01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:06,200 Speaker 1: getting pulled over. So you get to see why the 1649 01:24:06,280 --> 01:24:09,280 Speaker 1: person got pulled over. You get to see what the 1650 01:24:09,320 --> 01:24:11,680 Speaker 1: cop is thinking as he walks to the car, what 1651 01:24:11,840 --> 01:24:13,800 Speaker 1: the person that the car is thinking as the cop 1652 01:24:13,840 --> 01:24:16,160 Speaker 1: walks to him. It's a very different kind of record, 1653 01:24:16,280 --> 01:24:20,720 Speaker 1: and it ends like kind of where they interact with 1654 01:24:20,800 --> 01:24:22,400 Speaker 1: and you never know how these things go. That's why 1655 01:24:22,400 --> 01:24:24,599 Speaker 1: I left to open the ending open, because you never 1656 01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:27,200 Speaker 1: know how these kind of interactions will go somewhere. But 1657 01:24:27,240 --> 01:24:30,559 Speaker 1: I did try to without taking the police side makes 1658 01:24:30,600 --> 01:24:34,519 Speaker 1: sense as to why a cop would be scared at work. 1659 01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:37,840 Speaker 1: This is this is a question that's scared of work, 1660 01:24:37,920 --> 01:24:40,160 Speaker 1: not a bully cop looking him do something. This is 1661 01:24:40,160 --> 01:24:42,040 Speaker 1: a question. I feel like a lot of nervous police, 1662 01:24:42,120 --> 01:24:43,840 Speaker 1: the shot people. I feel like a lot of nervous 1663 01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:49,200 Speaker 1: niggas the shot people too. I direct on what will 1664 01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:54,599 Speaker 1: you said that you as a conservative liberal. Yes that's 1665 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:59,200 Speaker 1: true technically, yeah, but financially I'm conservative, But lifestyle I'm liberal. 1666 01:24:59,320 --> 01:25:00,760 Speaker 1: I don't really care what you do in your bed. 1667 01:25:00,880 --> 01:25:07,040 Speaker 1: Just don't fuck with my money. Okay, capitalists, Look, I'm 1668 01:25:07,040 --> 01:25:10,160 Speaker 1: still a philanthropist thought right, I'm charitable, So not about 1669 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:12,559 Speaker 1: just making money for me typically right now, at this point, 1670 01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:14,479 Speaker 1: a lot of the money that I'm trying to make 1671 01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:17,120 Speaker 1: won't even benefit me. I'll be dead and gone generation, 1672 01:25:17,120 --> 01:25:19,479 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So it's more about generational wealth, 1673 01:25:19,720 --> 01:25:23,360 Speaker 1: but also with financial empowerment on top of it, because 1674 01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:25,880 Speaker 1: it's it's easy to leave somebody's you know, money, But 1675 01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:29,439 Speaker 1: if nigga don't, you don't how to manage five hundred dollars, 1676 01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:31,960 Speaker 1: give you more money, not gonna help you. People don't 1677 01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:36,679 Speaker 1: get financial education. When they get money, they get financial education, 1678 01:25:37,120 --> 01:25:38,360 Speaker 1: and then they get money. 1679 01:25:38,680 --> 01:25:40,759 Speaker 4: You want of the guess that the hip hop community 1680 01:25:40,920 --> 01:25:44,160 Speaker 4: leans on and like the one that they grab up 1681 01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:45,680 Speaker 4: when they need somebody to go talk. 1682 01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:49,599 Speaker 1: Since Charlie rods like a motherfucker let me cook. 1683 01:25:49,640 --> 01:25:58,040 Speaker 5: It's twenty four, but like you won it was, you 1684 01:25:58,439 --> 01:26:00,919 Speaker 5: me up up, Like wait a minute. 1685 01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:03,160 Speaker 1: For real. 1686 01:26:04,360 --> 01:26:06,160 Speaker 4: I'm just saying, when they want to want to hear 1687 01:26:06,240 --> 01:26:08,120 Speaker 4: somebody to talk sinse or you know what I mean, 1688 01:26:09,080 --> 01:26:10,160 Speaker 4: be the voice of reasons. 1689 01:26:10,439 --> 01:26:12,200 Speaker 1: You're one of the guys that they go get, like, 1690 01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:16,080 Speaker 1: how does that feel to be that in that position? 1691 01:26:16,439 --> 01:26:18,280 Speaker 4: Out of all the references, Man, they go get you 1692 01:26:18,479 --> 01:26:20,800 Speaker 4: to make sense of some ship or talk to them 1693 01:26:20,840 --> 01:26:22,520 Speaker 4: white people when they need somebody. 1694 01:26:22,280 --> 01:26:27,400 Speaker 1: To make it dand you can go talk.

Ask somebody that 1696 01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:34,639 Speaker 1: ain't been through nothing to talk about something. That's the problem. 1697 01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:36,360 Speaker 1: We put a lot in the lap of the younger 1698 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:39,679 Speaker 1: artists and think they supposed to ain't been through enough ship. 1699 01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:41,920 Speaker 1: Some many dudes just ain't really been through enough ship. 1700 01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:44,960 Speaker 1: Politics really hasn't come into playing in their life in 1701 01:26:45,080 --> 01:26:47,320 Speaker 1: that way, you know what I'm saying, So why would 1702 01:26:47,320 --> 01:26:49,639 Speaker 1: you ask them what they think about politics? They probably 1703 01:26:49,720 --> 01:26:52,519 Speaker 1: don't think about politics. You know what I'm saying. They 1704 01:26:52,600 --> 01:26:54,479 Speaker 1: maybe just don't have a frame of reference. It ain't 1705 01:26:54,520 --> 01:26:57,360 Speaker 1: that they don't know. Is that Sunday morning in the 1706 01:26:57,400 --> 01:27:02,840 Speaker 1: Black household, it's music like earth Wind and Fire, maybe 1707 01:27:02,920 --> 01:27:05,160 Speaker 1: some church music. That's what's playing in the house in 1708 01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:08,200 Speaker 1: the Black home on Sunday morning, and white home is 1709 01:27:08,520 --> 01:27:12,439 Speaker 1: Meet the Press this week with George Stephanopolis.

My nigga is not a George. 1713 01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:28,519 Speaker 1: It's a monopoly. But that's just it, man. You know, 1714 01:27:28,800 --> 01:27:31,720 Speaker 1: other people and other culturees typically have an earlier entry 1715 01:27:31,760 --> 01:27:34,759 Speaker 1: point into these conversations. Black people don't really talk about 1716 01:27:34,960 --> 01:27:39,479 Speaker 1: election and politics. But every four years meanwhile, yeah, but 1717 01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:41,880 Speaker 1: meanwhiless the niggas. That's all your city council and your 1718 01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:44,360 Speaker 1: school board, they get elected every two to three years, 1719 01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:46,360 Speaker 1: depending on where you live at. Those are the people 1720 01:27:46,400 --> 01:27:48,559 Speaker 1: that are really making decisions that affect you every day 1721 01:27:48,680 --> 01:27:50,920 Speaker 1: like that. Those are the people that decide whether or 1722 01:27:50,920 --> 01:27:53,479 Speaker 1: not that powehole on your Mama Street get filled. That 1723 01:27:53,600 --> 01:27:56,720 Speaker 1: type of shit. You know what I'm saying, but that's 1724 01:27:56,800 --> 01:27:59,880 Speaker 1: just not something that we're told is important on the 1725 01:28:00,040 --> 01:28:02,280 Speaker 1: daily basis. They don't teach civics in school no more. 1726 01:28:02,320 --> 01:28:04,400 Speaker 1: But even if they did teach civics in school, it 1727 01:28:04,439 --> 01:28:07,160 Speaker 1: wouldn't matter because they ain't got shit to do with 1728 01:28:07,200 --> 01:28:09,280 Speaker 1: test scores. And that's really all they do in school 1729 01:28:09,400 --> 01:28:13,800 Speaker 1: now is teach kids how to pass state tests so 1730 01:28:13,880 --> 01:28:17,000 Speaker 1: they can keep funding or whatever. They really don't care 1731 01:28:17,120 --> 01:28:22,000 Speaker 1: about actually teaching kids things that could actually benefit them 1732 01:28:22,080 --> 01:28:26,160 Speaker 1: further in life, because passing a state examination test ain't 1733 01:28:26,160 --> 01:28:28,720 Speaker 1: got shit to do with making money and prospering in 1734 01:28:28,800 --> 01:28:31,479 Speaker 1: this world. Not a motherfucking thing. So when young people 1735 01:28:31,560 --> 01:28:33,320 Speaker 1: tell you they don't want to go to college, whatever, 1736 01:28:33,400 --> 01:28:36,120 Speaker 1: Look what school was. School wasn't shit. They didn't even 1737 01:28:36,200 --> 01:28:38,040 Speaker 1: really engage a lot of these kids. If you're not 1738 01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:40,280 Speaker 1: in an ap class or honest class, you know, if 1739 01:28:40,320 --> 01:28:42,840 Speaker 1: your intellect isn't even really engaged, right, they like you. 1740 01:28:43,320 --> 01:28:46,720 Speaker 1: And let's be very very real, we got a lot 1741 01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:49,200 Speaker 1: of kids in school that don't even want to be 1742 01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:52,519 Speaker 1: in school in the classroom with kids that actually do 1743 01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:58,080 Speaker 1: want to learn some that's a big problem. That's a 1744 01:28:58,160 --> 01:29:02,160 Speaker 1: big problem. We got class thirty five kids in the room, 1745 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:05,280 Speaker 1: twelve kids trying to learn, twenty three kids fucking off 1746 01:29:05,800 --> 01:29:08,960 Speaker 1: right because due to home situation's concerns or lack of 1747 01:29:09,080 --> 01:29:12,080 Speaker 1: involvement in their life, lack of engagement at home. You know, 1748 01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:14,880 Speaker 1: God knows what kind of environment they see and they 1749 01:29:14,960 --> 01:29:17,880 Speaker 1: live in every day. It's no one pushing them into 1750 01:29:17,960 --> 01:29:21,800 Speaker 1: an alternative that could benefit them, you know what I'm saying, 1751 01:29:22,200 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 1: And so they take that frustration. Somebody says some ill shit. 1752 01:29:25,520 --> 01:29:29,280 Speaker 1: The other day, somebody said children are sleeping the bed 1753 01:29:29,320 --> 01:29:33,880 Speaker 1: with their parents till they're seven years old because up 1754 01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:38,439 Speaker 1: until then, children are very, very scared. He said. When 1755 01:29:38,479 --> 01:29:41,200 Speaker 1: a child is in their bedroom by theyself and they 1756 01:29:41,240 --> 01:29:44,280 Speaker 1: get scared and nobody's there, that's when peeing in the 1757 01:29:44,360 --> 01:29:47,200 Speaker 1: bed starts. That kind of stuff. That's the behaving because 1758 01:29:47,200 --> 01:29:49,800 Speaker 1: they're having nightmares and dreams in their alone. They say. 1759 01:29:49,840 --> 01:29:52,479 Speaker 1: With children sleep in the bed with their parents, they 1760 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:53,960 Speaker 1: tend to not pe in a bed because if they 1761 01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:57,360 Speaker 1: wake up scared, somebody's gonna rub them, caress them, console 1762 01:29:57,479 --> 01:30:01,920 Speaker 1: them in the moment. What I'm saying, we have to 1763 01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:05,479 Speaker 1: do a better job of nurturing all with children. We 1764 01:30:05,680 --> 01:30:09,320 Speaker 1: can't keep giving kids phones and iPads. It ain't shit 1765 01:30:09,479 --> 01:30:11,200 Speaker 1: and they understand it better than you. So how the 1766 01:30:11,280 --> 01:30:14,000 Speaker 1: fuck can you mind it in your children social media page? 1767 01:30:14,160 --> 01:30:16,840 Speaker 1: When A you don't know enough about social media?

But 1805 01:31:54,960 --> 01:31:58,360 Speaker 1: I feel like you've been involved before the social media 1806 01:31:58,400 --> 01:32:02,120 Speaker 1: and the elect trying to come in. Typically I don't 1807 01:32:02,120 --> 01:32:04,920 Speaker 1: know how many situations I've been in where the parent 1808 01:32:05,000 --> 01:32:07,080 Speaker 1: is trying to do something, the child is bothering, and 1809 01:32:07,320 --> 01:32:09,280 Speaker 1: the parents You're like, here, just take the phone.

I remember my daughter found 1819 01:32:32,479 --> 01:32:34,320 Speaker 1: a game Boy and asked me what type of phone 1820 01:32:34,400 --> 01:32:38,080 Speaker 1: this was? I said, damn, I'm whoa like that? And 1821 01:32:38,200 --> 01:32:39,680 Speaker 1: she found a game boy. She was like, Daddy, what 1822 01:32:39,760 --> 01:32:42,200 Speaker 1: type of phone is this? Ain't no damn phone, that's 1823 01:32:42,240 --> 01:32:44,840 Speaker 1: a game boy. She was like, well where the phone an? 1824 01:32:44,960 --> 01:32:46,680 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? And then like for me, 1825 01:32:46,960 --> 01:32:49,120 Speaker 1: I just know that I think it comes from me 1826 01:32:49,240 --> 01:32:51,760 Speaker 1: not having a father, because I don't have no reference point. 1827 01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:53,760 Speaker 1: I don't have anything to go back to that the 1828 01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:55,840 Speaker 1: father supposed to do with their child. So I'm making 1829 01:32:55,880 --> 01:32:57,599 Speaker 1: it up as I go. So a lot of things 1830 01:32:57,640 --> 01:32:59,320 Speaker 1: that I'm sure if I had my dad, I probably 1831 01:32:59,320 --> 01:33:01,720 Speaker 1: would be restrict if because it came from and it 1832 01:33:01,880 --> 01:33:04,200 Speaker 1: just passed down. I don't have that. So I'm more 1833 01:33:04,320 --> 01:33:06,200 Speaker 1: open minded with a lot of things when it comes 1834 01:33:06,240 --> 01:33:09,000 Speaker 1: to my daughter in regards to letting her lead, because 1835 01:33:09,040 --> 01:33:11,799 Speaker 1: I know that when I was her age, Like for example, 1836 01:33:12,240 --> 01:33:13,960 Speaker 1: when we was home for Christmas break, she got a 1837 01:33:14,000 --> 01:33:16,679 Speaker 1: little boyfriend. Her boyfriend came to the house. They baked 1838 01:33:16,720 --> 01:33:18,960 Speaker 1: cookies and all that at the house, and I just, 1839 01:33:19,160 --> 01:33:23,080 Speaker 1: you know, naturally, was appreciative of the fact that this 1840 01:33:23,240 --> 01:33:25,840 Speaker 1: little girl is a much better human being than I 1841 01:33:26,120 --> 01:33:28,479 Speaker 1: was at fifteen, because I got cameras all in my 1842 01:33:28,600 --> 01:33:30,240 Speaker 1: house and I can see what they was doing. They 1843 01:33:30,360 --> 01:33:33,200 Speaker 1: really was just in that being kids. If my mama 1844 01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:36,360 Speaker 1: had cameras in that house when I was fifteen, she'd 1845 01:33:36,400 --> 01:33:38,840 Speaker 1: have had footage of me jerking off all round. At 1846 01:33:38,880 --> 01:33:42,479 Speaker 1: this I'm talking about nothing but me jerking off all 1847 01:33:42,640 --> 01:33:45,200 Speaker 1: around her apartment. Nigga, ain't nowhere in the world. I 1848 01:33:45,240 --> 01:33:47,800 Speaker 1: could have been in there with some cameras and then 1849 01:33:47,880 --> 01:33:50,120 Speaker 1: let alone a girl, Nigga, I'd have been fucking in 1850 01:33:50,280 --> 01:33:52,920 Speaker 1: her bed like ain't nowhere in the world. So just 1851 01:33:53,320 --> 01:33:57,240 Speaker 1: me understanding that dynamic lets me know that. Okay, I 1852 01:33:57,320 --> 01:33:59,960 Speaker 1: got a good baby, so I can't be I can't 1853 01:34:00,200 --> 01:34:03,280 Speaker 1: act like she's like me and be as restrictive like 1854 01:34:03,439 --> 01:34:07,479 Speaker 1: I was when I was cookies. They based cookies looked 1855 01:34:07,520 --> 01:34:11,160 Speaker 1: like biscus was there, but yeah I was not. I 1856 01:34:11,240 --> 01:34:14,679 Speaker 1: ain't got children right. That's the thing, right when when 1857 01:34:14,800 --> 01:34:16,840 Speaker 1: you are trying to raise your child with the best 1858 01:34:16,880 --> 01:34:19,439 Speaker 1: of intentions, right, and you don't let the worst of 1859 01:34:19,560 --> 01:34:22,400 Speaker 1: you be the reason why you make a certain decision. 1860 01:34:22,479 --> 01:34:25,120 Speaker 1: You don't let how you feel in the day to 1861 01:34:25,320 --> 01:34:27,800 Speaker 1: determine how you make a decision right, whether or not 1862 01:34:27,960 --> 01:34:29,720 Speaker 1: your child gets to go somewhere depending on how you 1863 01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:32,400 Speaker 1: feel in that day. That that's that doesn't sound like that, 1864 01:34:32,680 --> 01:34:33,960 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. That the child has earned 1865 01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:35,479 Speaker 1: the right to go and do something. We should do 1866 01:34:35,560 --> 01:34:37,760 Speaker 1: it regardless of how it inconvenienced us. These are the 1867 01:34:37,840 --> 01:34:40,600 Speaker 1: kind of things got to be very intentional into what 1868 01:34:40,800 --> 01:34:42,840 Speaker 1: you're doing and why you're doing it. But the child 1869 01:34:42,880 --> 01:34:45,519 Speaker 1: has to also be aware enough to see that. You 1870 01:34:45,640 --> 01:34:47,360 Speaker 1: know what, I know a lot. I got a lot 1871 01:34:47,400 --> 01:34:49,160 Speaker 1: of friends, They got a lot of daddies. They daddy 1872 01:34:49,240 --> 01:34:51,120 Speaker 1: do stuff for them and with them.

That's 1875 01:34:57,600 --> 01:35:02,000 Speaker 1: just important for children. Most children want to know that 1876 01:35:02,760 --> 01:35:06,040 Speaker 1: they can depend on their parents, whether they show you 1877 01:35:06,120 --> 01:35:09,800 Speaker 1: the appreciation or not, whether they you know, your butt 1878 01:35:09,880 --> 01:35:11,680 Speaker 1: heads and all of that shit.

Became it 2373 01:57:54,320 --> 01:57:57,560 Speaker 1: eventually became, you know what I'm saying, even as mama 2374 01:57:57,680 --> 01:58:00,360 Speaker 1: who wasn't really sure about it but supported him anyway. 2375 01:58:00,560 --> 01:58:02,760 Speaker 1: Once she saw where this shit was going, she stopped 2376 01:58:02,800 --> 01:58:05,520 Speaker 1: the whole life to get behind him and support her 2377 01:58:05,560 --> 01:58:07,920 Speaker 1: because she saw that it was actually going to be 2378 01:58:08,600 --> 01:58:11,960 Speaker 1: something real, something tangible, that was going to take her 2379 01:58:12,080 --> 01:58:15,280 Speaker 1: child very far in this world. And so she just 2380 01:58:15,360 --> 01:58:16,920 Speaker 1: wanted to get behind him at help. And that was 2381 01:58:16,960 --> 01:58:19,960 Speaker 1: a very very unique relationship because Pimp was the only child. 2382 01:58:20,480 --> 01:58:23,520 Speaker 1: Pemp's mama was an only child, so he ain't had 2383 01:58:23,680 --> 01:58:25,160 Speaker 1: a bunch of eighties at on because he had him 2384 01:58:25,160 --> 01:58:27,680 Speaker 1: through marriage and shit like that. But it was his grandmother, 2385 01:58:27,960 --> 01:58:32,480 Speaker 1: his mama and him like one, two, three and so 2386 01:58:33,360 --> 01:58:35,520 Speaker 1: there was no way that she was going to stand 2387 01:58:35,600 --> 01:58:38,640 Speaker 1: to the side and not get behind him, because we 2388 01:58:38,720 --> 01:58:40,680 Speaker 1: had just got in to it with the record company, 2389 01:58:40,920 --> 01:58:43,520 Speaker 1: just fired, the manager, got sued by the manager, attacked 2390 01:58:43,560 --> 01:58:45,520 Speaker 1: by the our risk, all this type of shit going on, 2391 01:58:45,680 --> 01:58:48,400 Speaker 1: and then mama had a nice, comfortable company, you know 2392 01:58:48,400 --> 01:58:49,920 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. They owned damn near all the vending 2393 01:58:49,960 --> 01:58:52,280 Speaker 1: machines to put offs, so they had good money.

It's just those kinds of things, man, 2398 01:59:04,440 --> 01:59:07,080 Speaker 1: those kind of moments that really took us from where 2399 01:59:07,120 --> 01:59:10,360 Speaker 1: we was going to where we needed to go, from 2400 01:59:10,480 --> 01:59:14,240 Speaker 1: somebody sewing into us, somebody believing us even And you 2401 01:59:14,280 --> 01:59:17,080 Speaker 1: gotta understand, this is a ugk. It's worse at its 2402 01:59:17,200 --> 01:59:19,800 Speaker 1: lowest moment, and somebody came in and believed in us 2403 01:59:20,240 --> 01:59:22,160 Speaker 1: enough to take everything they had to help us turn 2404 01:59:22,240 --> 01:59:24,960 Speaker 1: this shit around. And so for him, it was always 2405 01:59:25,000 --> 01:59:28,360 Speaker 1: about don't let no one shatter your dreams, don't let 2406 01:59:28,480 --> 01:59:31,080 Speaker 1: nobody tell you you not gonna be who you think 2407 01:59:31,240 --> 01:59:34,440 Speaker 1: you can be just because you not that person. Now, 2408 01:59:35,320 --> 01:59:37,280 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Because everybody want to be 2409 01:59:37,440 --> 01:59:39,320 Speaker 1: cool at a certain time. Everybody don't want to be 2410 01:59:39,400 --> 01:59:41,920 Speaker 1: cool when everybody else is cool. In high school, you 2411 01:59:41,960 --> 01:59:43,400 Speaker 1: want to be a freshman.

Most people use it up 2417 01:59:56,280 --> 01:59:58,280 Speaker 1: very early, and it's no cool left when they get 2418 01:59:58,320 --> 02:00:01,840 Speaker 1: older because they didn't prepare to be old. I was told, 2419 02:00:02,240 --> 02:00:06,120 Speaker 1: take your youth and work hard. Don't try to be cool. 2420 02:00:06,240 --> 02:00:10,000 Speaker 1: Work hard, stack your money.

That's how I rap. 2522 02:05:02,160 --> 02:05:10,000 Speaker 1: I decided very early that every rhyme I right could 2523 02:05:10,000 --> 02:05:13,400 Speaker 1: be my last rhyme. So I got to put every 2524 02:05:13,440 --> 02:05:15,800 Speaker 1: goddamn thing I want to put in these motherfuckers on 2525 02:05:15,840 --> 02:05:18,400 Speaker 1: before I get out of here. Now. In the case 2526 02:05:18,440 --> 02:05:21,960 Speaker 1: of Big Pimpon, I had every intention on going and 2527 02:05:22,160 --> 02:05:26,400 Speaker 1: just putting up balls on balls on balls because of 2528 02:05:26,440 --> 02:05:31,520 Speaker 1: who I was working with. But he had intentions on 2529 02:05:31,640 --> 02:05:34,880 Speaker 1: doing a party record like that was the thing. It 2530 02:05:35,000 --> 02:05:37,760 Speaker 1: was not like Renegade, where this is beat that me 2531 02:05:37,840 --> 02:05:40,600 Speaker 1: and you fin the rap against each other. This is like, oh, 2532 02:05:40,720 --> 02:05:43,440 Speaker 1: this is my party record. This ain't one of those records. 2533 02:05:43,480 --> 02:05:46,400 Speaker 1: This is my party record. Y'all niggas make good party music. 2534 02:05:46,440 --> 02:05:49,800 Speaker 1: Come get on this party record with me. I win't 2535 02:05:49,840 --> 02:05:51,800 Speaker 1: got on the party record, but I wasn't rapping by 2536 02:05:51,880 --> 02:05:55,600 Speaker 1: no party, no shit like that. Like, because I'm already 2537 02:05:55,680 --> 02:05:58,520 Speaker 1: here and I know a bunch of motherfuckers that I 2538 02:05:58,560 --> 02:06:03,000 Speaker 1: don't know gonna be here. Let me let me just 2539 02:06:03,080 --> 02:06:05,120 Speaker 1: do what I do. And that was the whole point 2540 02:06:05,160 --> 02:06:06,840 Speaker 1: of Pimp not even want to do the record because 2541 02:06:06,840 --> 02:06:08,880 Speaker 1: he didn't feel the record allowed him to do what 2542 02:06:09,080 --> 02:06:12,480 Speaker 1: he do, you know what I'm saying. That's why he 2543 02:06:12,560 --> 02:06:14,120 Speaker 1: only did a boss because he was like, I want 2544 02:06:14,120 --> 02:06:16,600 Speaker 1: to rap on this ship, but the most memorable I'm 2545 02:06:16,640 --> 02:06:19,240 Speaker 1: gonna do a b probably the most the most memorable 2546 02:06:19,400 --> 02:06:24,080 Speaker 1: recited boss in the history, you know. But that was 2547 02:06:24,120 --> 02:06:26,000 Speaker 1: the thing about a nigga like that. Nigga like that 2548 02:06:26,120 --> 02:06:29,320 Speaker 1: didn't need to say a lot to be impactful. Pimp 2549 02:06:29,560 --> 02:06:35,440 Speaker 1: was Pimp Carap, Pimp rap very well. But Pimp never 2550 02:06:35,600 --> 02:06:40,360 Speaker 1: felt a need to im import skill and all of 2551 02:06:40,440 --> 02:06:41,920 Speaker 1: that ship, which he could do all of this ship. 2552 02:06:41,920 --> 02:06:45,960 Speaker 1: And there's moments throughout throughout you know, the career where 2553 02:06:46,000 --> 02:06:49,600 Speaker 1: you'll see Pimp, you know, showed some dexterity. It was 2554 02:06:49,800 --> 02:06:53,200 Speaker 1: always there, but he just didn't want to get confused. 2555 02:06:53,240 --> 02:06:55,000 Speaker 1: Like sometimes I put a bunch of words in there, 2556 02:06:55,160 --> 02:06:56,760 Speaker 1: and I put some big words. You might even know 2557 02:06:56,840 --> 02:06:58,360 Speaker 1: what the fucking me. You might need to go read, 2558 02:06:59,160 --> 02:07:01,640 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Big Southern rap camp Sario, 2559 02:07:01,760 --> 02:07:05,320 Speaker 1: what the fuck is up for Sario, Well, I mean 2560 02:07:05,400 --> 02:07:07,800 Speaker 1: he's a person held in high regard that typically holds 2561 02:07:07,800 --> 02:07:11,000 Speaker 1: a high standard system. I mean, I know it was him, 2562 02:07:11,000 --> 02:07:14,760 Speaker 1: but I didn't know the definition but him, he just 2563 02:07:14,760 --> 02:07:17,160 Speaker 1: didn't want to be misunderstood. That's why a lot of 2564 02:07:17,240 --> 02:07:20,520 Speaker 1: his rhymes are very slow and dragged out their intentional. 2565 02:07:21,760 --> 02:07:23,680 Speaker 1: I could rap fast on this record, but I don't 2566 02:07:23,720 --> 02:07:25,360 Speaker 1: need to rap fast on this record. But you didn't 2567 02:07:25,360 --> 02:07:28,120 Speaker 1: know what the fuck I'm trying to say on this record. Me, 2568 02:07:28,320 --> 02:07:30,240 Speaker 1: I tried to put a word on a syllable everywhere 2569 02:07:30,280 --> 02:07:32,280 Speaker 1: they go. I wanted to wrap over. I wanted to 2570 02:07:32,360 --> 02:07:37,600 Speaker 1: touch every goddamn beat in the motherfucking record. And this 2571 02:07:37,760 --> 02:07:40,040 Speaker 1: is before we even had pro toos. You know, ry 2572 02:07:40,160 --> 02:07:43,400 Speaker 1: Ther's the first album done rap album done on pro 2573 02:07:43,480 --> 02:07:46,880 Speaker 1: Tools for real. We had beta version of pro Tools. 2574 02:07:47,040 --> 02:07:49,840 Speaker 1: It wasn't even available for people. The studio we worked 2575 02:07:49,880 --> 02:07:51,880 Speaker 1: at was given the beta version of it to test it. 2576 02:07:51,960 --> 02:07:56,320 Speaker 1: Because he was like the number one radio commercial producer. 2577 02:07:56,400 --> 02:07:59,360 Speaker 1: He had a larger sound bank in the country. And 2578 02:07:59,440 --> 02:08:01,080 Speaker 1: you know, Joe found him and we was over that 2579 02:08:01,200 --> 02:08:03,320 Speaker 1: working and they were like, yeah, this is gonna help 2580 02:08:03,400 --> 02:08:05,360 Speaker 1: us record everything fast.

But these 3187 02:36:53,200 --> 02:36:55,480 Speaker 1: are very rich people, so they don't have another car. 3188 02:36:55,600 --> 02:36:58,160 Speaker 1: Have well, sometimes they have another call. They'll have a 3189 02:36:58,200 --> 02:37:01,200 Speaker 1: support car, right, so they just carry their clothes and 3190 02:37:01,240 --> 02:37:04,080 Speaker 1: take pictures and shoot video of them.

Then leave 3195 02:37:12,360 --> 02:37:14,800 Speaker 1: whatever they had and just keep going. But I've seen 3196 02:37:14,840 --> 02:37:18,040 Speaker 1: people spend some obscene amounts of money without trying to 3197 02:37:18,160 --> 02:37:22,240 Speaker 1: be like not like capping them. Just they rich and 3198 02:37:22,320 --> 02:37:24,800 Speaker 1: it's just very convenient to do things in a certain way. 3199 02:37:24,840 --> 02:37:26,959 Speaker 1: That's always been something I want to do, Like that's 3200 02:37:27,080 --> 02:37:30,240 Speaker 1: my meditation, that's my leader.

I'm not even in 3207 02:37:45,280 --> 02:37:47,760 Speaker 1: the cars, but just the actual it's intense. Though it's 3208 02:37:47,840 --> 02:37:51,000 Speaker 1: intense because it looks like it's fun, but it's it's 3209 02:37:51,240 --> 02:37:53,880 Speaker 1: it's it is fun, but it's a lot.

UGK was a group 3244 02:39:21,720 --> 02:39:24,320 Speaker 1: before me Chad and his dude named Mitchell Queen where 3245 02:39:24,400 --> 02:39:27,920 Speaker 1: the original iteration at UGK, and then me and two 3246 02:39:27,959 --> 02:39:30,080 Speaker 1: other dudes came in and then we became a four 3247 02:39:30,160 --> 02:39:33,280 Speaker 1: man group. And then the other two dudes decided to 3248 02:39:33,360 --> 02:39:35,800 Speaker 1: go play football and do other stuff, and we was 3249 02:39:35,920 --> 02:39:38,600 Speaker 1: left as a two man group. But we still had 3250 02:39:38,640 --> 02:39:41,120 Speaker 1: the four man group name. And so when we brought 3251 02:39:41,160 --> 02:39:43,240 Speaker 1: the demo the Big Time Records in the Fleet Market 3252 02:39:43,280 --> 02:39:45,879 Speaker 1: in Houston, and we brought her tell me something Good, 3253 02:39:45,879 --> 02:39:47,200 Speaker 1: and he was like, I love this record.

What's the name of the group, 3255 02:39:48,840 --> 02:39:50,960 Speaker 1: And we had no other name, so went back to 3256 02:39:51,120 --> 02:39:56,120 Speaker 1: UGK man. That's love man. What's your favorite old school car? Yeah, 3257 02:40:01,680 --> 02:40:04,840 Speaker 1: that's a good question. I had an eighty three part 3258 02:40:04,879 --> 02:40:07,600 Speaker 1: got eighty four Park Avenue and my stepdaddy gave me. 3259 02:40:08,280 --> 02:40:10,600 Speaker 1: That was a good, dependable car. But I always wanted 3260 02:40:10,680 --> 02:40:14,000 Speaker 1: the Deuce in the Quarter, but just because it was 3261 02:40:14,080 --> 02:40:16,320 Speaker 1: called the Deuce in the Quarter. But you know, I 3262 02:40:16,440 --> 02:40:18,400 Speaker 1: come up in the era where I come up in 3263 02:40:18,480 --> 02:40:21,480 Speaker 1: the area with the Toyota trucks. You like the fucking 3264 02:40:21,520 --> 02:40:23,840 Speaker 1: Toyota truck. No. No, from the era where they would 3265 02:40:23,840 --> 02:40:25,880 Speaker 1: slab trucks. I don't know how they did. Everybody the 3266 02:40:26,000 --> 02:40:28,440 Speaker 1: Texas Corey, That's why Corey laughed. Court remember that era. 3267 02:40:29,760 --> 02:40:32,120 Speaker 1: A little bitty boy back then. But that's when they 3268 02:40:32,240 --> 02:40:34,000 Speaker 1: that's when black people are typically the only people that 3269 02:40:34,080 --> 02:40:36,720 Speaker 1: drop cars like that. Now, I typically Latinos are agents. 3270 02:40:36,920 --> 02:40:38,920 Speaker 1: But that when black people, you know, were dropping the toyota. 3271 02:40:39,000 --> 02:40:41,720 Speaker 1: Not no big old toyot either, just a little bit 3272 02:40:41,760 --> 02:40:42,400 Speaker 1: of mini trucks. 3273 02:40:42,440 --> 02:40:42,560 Speaker 4: Man. 3274 02:40:42,600 --> 02:40:44,440 Speaker 1: We used to have the Yocha in Port Arthos. We 3275 02:40:44,480 --> 02:40:46,520 Speaker 1: used to have this crew called the Yoda Possea and 3276 02:40:46,600 --> 02:40:49,360 Speaker 1: they had full toyota and they would drive through the 3277 02:40:49,400 --> 02:40:51,560 Speaker 1: hood and they'll get to the little intersection of your corner. 3278 02:40:51,600 --> 02:40:55,240 Speaker 1: Like I lived off Fifth Avenue and fifteenth Street, Stephen 3279 02:40:55,280 --> 02:40:57,400 Speaker 1: Jackson and played basketball and all that he lived on. 3280 02:40:58,120 --> 02:41:00,720 Speaker 1: He lived on between fourth and fifth, live between fifth 3281 02:41:00,720 --> 02:41:03,400 Speaker 1: and six, and the nigg would come through and they 3282 02:41:03,440 --> 02:41:06,240 Speaker 1: get to that little stop sign and then they're all turn. 3283 02:41:06,360 --> 02:41:08,120 Speaker 1: That would have turned and go, and that's when they 3284 02:41:08,200 --> 02:41:10,560 Speaker 1: used to have them. Niggas would make speaker boxes and 3285 02:41:10,640 --> 02:41:13,600 Speaker 1: wood would for the whole bed.

I think a 3310 02:42:25,760 --> 02:42:28,680 Speaker 1: killer Mike would be a great person to have, But 3311 02:42:28,720 --> 02:42:31,520 Speaker 1: I also think a Meek Meal would be a great 3312 02:42:31,560 --> 02:42:34,720 Speaker 1: person to have. I think Freeway would be a great 3313 02:42:34,800 --> 02:42:38,640 Speaker 1: person to have, and we would honestly need like another 3314 02:42:38,680 --> 02:42:41,400 Speaker 1: little baby moment, you know what I'm saying, because you 3315 02:42:41,560 --> 02:42:44,720 Speaker 1: need these younger artists that these these kids can you know, 3316 02:42:44,800 --> 02:42:47,560 Speaker 1: look up and respect and see themselves in you know 3317 02:42:47,600 --> 02:42:51,280 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Young people have to feel like you 3318 02:42:51,480 --> 02:42:54,840 Speaker 1: understand them right, You're willing to meet them where they are. 3319 02:42:55,000 --> 02:42:57,840 Speaker 1: That don't mean be childish. That means understand their culture, 3320 02:42:58,200 --> 02:43:02,160 Speaker 1: Understand their frames of reference. Staying why kids are wearing 3321 02:43:02,200 --> 02:43:04,320 Speaker 1: hoodies in the summer type of shit, you know what 3322 02:43:04,320 --> 02:43:10,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying. You know, but again I think, I think, 3323 02:43:10,760 --> 02:43:13,199 Speaker 1: I don't know if it really works because we actually 3324 02:43:13,320 --> 02:43:16,879 Speaker 1: live in an environment right now musically, and this again 3325 02:43:16,920 --> 02:43:20,160 Speaker 1: I'm not here to judge nobody, but we have more 3326 02:43:20,240 --> 02:43:23,280 Speaker 1: people that are active than are inactive. That's never really 3327 02:43:23,400 --> 02:43:26,480 Speaker 1: been the dynamic in the culture. You have a handful 3328 02:43:26,520 --> 02:43:28,920 Speaker 1: of people that were still in the life, but you know, 3329 02:43:29,120 --> 02:43:31,640 Speaker 1: like Bennie the Butcher got one foot in and one 3330 02:43:31,680 --> 02:43:33,720 Speaker 1: foot out kind of a thing. But we have people 3331 02:43:33,840 --> 02:43:37,040 Speaker 1: now who are you know, very prominent artists in the 3332 02:43:37,160 --> 02:43:40,200 Speaker 1: culture who are active outside you know what I'm saying, 3333 02:43:40,280 --> 02:43:44,359 Speaker 1: them in they circle, they really still in the element presently, 3334 02:43:44,520 --> 02:43:47,160 Speaker 1: you know, for whatever reason, they still in the element. 3335 02:43:47,280 --> 02:43:50,080 Speaker 1: So I think it's very hard for people who are 3336 02:43:50,160 --> 02:43:54,720 Speaker 1: literally living a life that requires them to actively dodge 3337 02:43:54,840 --> 02:43:58,560 Speaker 1: violence from from people to start saying stop the violence, 3338 02:43:59,080 --> 02:44:01,560 Speaker 1: because that's just not the world perspective that they have. 3339 02:44:02,280 --> 02:44:06,960 Speaker 1: And again, everybody, everybody ain't there. We would love for 3340 02:44:07,040 --> 02:44:09,720 Speaker 1: everybody to be positive and focused and give these good messages, 3341 02:44:09,720 --> 02:44:12,120 Speaker 1: but everybody ain't there.

We just gotta let young niggas 3355 02:44:47,879 --> 02:44:50,560 Speaker 1: that's active figured out how it's gonna go for them. 3356 02:44:50,720 --> 02:44:52,360 Speaker 1: You know. Ain't nobody gonna stop doing what they want 3357 02:44:52,360 --> 02:44:54,720 Speaker 1: to do till they ready, you know what I'm saying. 3358 02:44:54,879 --> 02:44:57,120 Speaker 1: And some people, you know, I know a lot of 3359 02:44:57,200 --> 02:44:59,600 Speaker 1: niggas are so dope, got away for for a long time. 3360 02:45:00,080 --> 02:45:03,040 Speaker 1: Hustle one day too long, I gotta do it.

Like 3366 02:45:16,000 --> 02:45:18,760 Speaker 1: because that was the first time me personally that I 3367 02:45:19,000 --> 02:45:22,400 Speaker 1: ever heard somebody rap to where it's three pimpcy verses 3368 02:45:22,520 --> 02:45:28,200 Speaker 1: that for me is murder a kick dough and uh 3369 02:45:28,720 --> 02:45:30,760 Speaker 1: all kick door is my shit.

I mean, I want to help real star murder. 3383 02:46:06,040 --> 02:46:10,560 Speaker 1: The reality was, I've only really been like drunk about 3384 02:46:11,040 --> 02:46:13,200 Speaker 1: five days in my life because I have a really 3385 02:46:13,280 --> 02:46:15,720 Speaker 1: hot talerance. That was probably the day number two in 3386 02:46:15,800 --> 02:46:18,800 Speaker 1: my life. But I'd actually been really drunk the night before, 3387 02:46:18,840 --> 02:46:21,160 Speaker 1: and I came in. I was fucked up. Now skip 3388 02:46:21,320 --> 02:46:23,360 Speaker 1: home in the studio where we used to work here, Corey, 3389 02:46:23,600 --> 02:46:25,120 Speaker 1: did you ever come over with ski? All right? So 3390 02:46:25,840 --> 02:46:28,760 Speaker 1: again this is the guy that had pro tools in 3391 02:46:28,840 --> 02:46:32,879 Speaker 1: the beta version. He had probably the most digitally advanced 3392 02:46:32,920 --> 02:46:34,880 Speaker 1: BOYD you can have. Ye had SSL boy had at 3393 02:46:34,920 --> 02:46:37,959 Speaker 1: least one hundred and something tracks, right, beautiful setup, raised 3394 02:46:38,000 --> 02:46:40,120 Speaker 1: off the ground or whatever. So I came in and 3395 02:46:40,200 --> 02:46:43,600 Speaker 1: I went to sleep. I came in, I went to sleep, 3396 02:46:44,080 --> 02:46:46,680 Speaker 1: like they was laying the track out and production wise, 3397 02:46:46,760 --> 02:46:49,600 Speaker 1: and I guess he laid his vocals. I don't know 3398 02:46:49,680 --> 02:46:51,840 Speaker 1: if I was. I can't remember if I was awakened now, 3399 02:46:51,879 --> 02:46:54,560 Speaker 1: but I was sleep under the board. I fucked up. 3400 02:46:54,600 --> 02:46:55,960 Speaker 1: I came in. I just went to sleep because that 3401 02:46:56,000 --> 02:46:58,760 Speaker 1: was the coldest place. Because these big equipment have to 3402 02:46:58,840 --> 02:47:01,240 Speaker 1: have fans to keep them cool. So where the board 3403 02:47:01,280 --> 02:47:03,400 Speaker 1: that is typically where it's cool. So I went laid 3404 02:47:03,480 --> 02:47:05,960 Speaker 1: up under that hole and laid it down right. And 3405 02:47:06,080 --> 02:47:07,720 Speaker 1: so they woke me up and they say, b it's 3406 02:47:07,800 --> 02:47:10,520 Speaker 1: your time. You know what I'm saying to wrap, And 3407 02:47:10,640 --> 02:47:14,320 Speaker 1: so I got up. I guess I had written the 3408 02:47:14,400 --> 02:47:17,080 Speaker 1: rhyme before. Again I'm getting old. I imagine I wrote 3409 02:47:17,080 --> 02:47:18,640 Speaker 1: the ryme before, because I know I didn't wake up 3410 02:47:18,680 --> 02:47:21,040 Speaker 1: and write it. I woke up and went in and 3411 02:47:21,160 --> 02:47:24,080 Speaker 1: I spit it. And what you hear is take two. 3412 02:47:25,680 --> 02:47:28,480 Speaker 1: So I don't take one. And they asked me, did 3413 02:47:28,520 --> 02:47:30,039 Speaker 1: I want to punch in? I was like, no, I'm 3414 02:47:30,080 --> 02:47:32,040 Speaker 1: gonna just do it again. Take me back to the top. 3415 02:47:32,320 --> 02:47:34,480 Speaker 1: And so the murder that you here take too. I 3416 02:47:34,560 --> 02:47:37,280 Speaker 1: have no idea, no recollection of what Pip was doing 3417 02:47:37,440 --> 02:47:39,320 Speaker 1: when he wrote his verse. I don't believe I was 3418 02:47:39,320 --> 02:47:41,360 Speaker 1: awake when he laid his verse. I was down the way. 3419 02:47:44,120 --> 02:47:48,840 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. Here's the thing. Murder was not 3420 02:47:49,320 --> 02:47:55,480 Speaker 1: even about him. The whole point of Murder was me 3421 02:47:55,879 --> 02:47:59,120 Speaker 1: bitching constantly. Man, you keep saying I'm the best rap 3422 02:47:59,240 --> 02:48:01,640 Speaker 1: in the world. Ain't show niggas. I'm cold as seventy 3423 02:48:01,680 --> 02:48:05,920 Speaker 1: three bpm, bro. I need some eighty five, some eighty eight. 3424 02:48:06,080 --> 02:48:09,320 Speaker 1: I need some fast tempo music. And so Murder was 3425 02:48:09,400 --> 02:48:12,480 Speaker 1: the one. Murder was the one that was finally fast 3426 02:48:12,600 --> 02:48:16,080 Speaker 1: enough for me to really rap like I wanted. But 3427 02:48:16,200 --> 02:48:20,560 Speaker 1: it also required him. It also required him to rap 3428 02:48:20,720 --> 02:48:23,920 Speaker 1: fast too, yeah and come like that on the song. 3429 02:48:25,000 --> 02:48:27,320 Speaker 1: I had no idea really that it was just a 3430 02:48:27,480 --> 02:48:30,080 Speaker 1: rhyme at the time. I did not write this rhyme 3431 02:48:30,160 --> 02:48:33,119 Speaker 1: and lay it and be like, the game has changed. 3432 02:48:33,640 --> 02:48:37,920 Speaker 1: I went back to sleep. I went back to sleep 3433 02:48:38,800 --> 02:48:43,440 Speaker 1: ex and it just eventually became what it was because 3434 02:48:43,560 --> 02:48:47,680 Speaker 1: nobody was really from where we were and what we represented. 3435 02:48:47,760 --> 02:48:49,960 Speaker 1: When I say well, I mean in the South, you 3436 02:48:50,120 --> 02:48:51,960 Speaker 1: had niggas that could spit from the South. But it 3437 02:48:52,040 --> 02:48:54,920 Speaker 1: was never really the objective to get caught up in that. 3438 02:48:55,040 --> 02:48:57,240 Speaker 1: It was really about making sure the niggas understood what 3439 02:48:57,280 --> 02:48:59,360 Speaker 1: you were saying, because some of us had very deep 3440 02:48:59,440 --> 02:49:02,520 Speaker 1: and heavy and trying not to get their at their 3441 02:49:02,680 --> 02:49:06,920 Speaker 1: neighborhood and what they represent fucked up. We were already 3442 02:49:06,959 --> 02:49:09,960 Speaker 1: good on that. So I've been asking a nigga for 3443 02:49:10,000 --> 02:49:11,600 Speaker 1: a ryme where I could really rap. This was the 3444 02:49:11,680 --> 02:49:14,200 Speaker 1: one I went. Now felt like I did my thing, 3445 02:49:14,320 --> 02:49:17,120 Speaker 1: and then that was it. And it wasn't until really 3446 02:49:17,400 --> 02:49:20,240 Speaker 1: because I didn't know if niggas that didn't rap would 3447 02:49:20,440 --> 02:49:24,400 Speaker 1: even appreciate it. And it ended up becoming for one 3448 02:49:25,680 --> 02:49:28,880 Speaker 1: like it was almost like a bat signal to niggas 3449 02:49:28,920 --> 02:49:31,640 Speaker 1: in the South. You know what I'm saying, You ain't 3450 02:49:31,680 --> 02:49:33,760 Speaker 1: got it. You ain't got to spend your time being Southern, 3451 02:49:33,879 --> 02:49:37,880 Speaker 1: proving you Southern. We Southern ain't nowhere around it. Prove 3452 02:49:37,959 --> 02:49:40,359 Speaker 1: to them niggas. You could do anything them niggas. 3453 02:49:40,080 --> 02:49:41,440 Speaker 4: Do not full time. 3454 02:49:41,520 --> 02:49:45,480 Speaker 1: You don't have to, but if I wanted to, I 3455 02:49:45,520 --> 02:49:48,400 Speaker 1: could do anything you doing. Very few people can say 3456 02:49:48,400 --> 02:49:51,440 Speaker 1: the same about how we moved. There's a few people 3457 02:49:51,480 --> 02:49:54,640 Speaker 1: who can who are very comfortable doing more Southern based 3458 02:49:54,720 --> 02:49:57,280 Speaker 1: type music just say, are just as comfortable as they 3459 02:49:57,360 --> 02:50:00,200 Speaker 1: are doing things at are more to their reagion it's 3460 02:50:00,200 --> 02:50:02,360 Speaker 1: not for everybody, you know what I'm saying. It's a 3461 02:50:02,400 --> 02:50:04,560 Speaker 1: lot of people with But now in hip hop now 3462 02:50:04,640 --> 02:50:08,320 Speaker 1: you almost have to incorporate certain aspects of Southern lifestyle 3463 02:50:08,400 --> 02:50:11,240 Speaker 1: and culture even for it to even resonate. See, we 3464 02:50:11,320 --> 02:50:14,280 Speaker 1: woke up one day and realized that it's the numbers game. 3465 02:50:14,360 --> 02:50:17,600 Speaker 1: We win. Hell yeah, this is all about numbers. We 3466 02:50:17,720 --> 02:50:22,680 Speaker 1: got the most people. West Coast is, California, Las Vegas, Seattle. 3467 02:50:23,040 --> 02:50:25,040 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Oregon. Maybe I guess come 3468 02:50:25,120 --> 02:50:28,200 Speaker 1: of that ship. Right, that's technically as we look on 3469 02:50:28,280 --> 02:50:30,720 Speaker 1: the West Coast as far as hip hop, East Coast 3470 02:50:30,800 --> 02:50:35,080 Speaker 1: and New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Philadelphia, they came claim DC. 3471 02:50:35,720 --> 02:50:38,280 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, the South. How many these 3472 02:50:38,320 --> 02:50:45,920 Speaker 1: motherfuckers you want? Texas, Texas, Low Alabama, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, 3473 02:50:46,000 --> 02:50:49,120 Speaker 1: South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee. You know what I'm saying, 3474 02:50:49,160 --> 02:50:52,200 Speaker 1: We ain't even We ain't even got to these. We 3475 02:50:52,240 --> 02:50:55,320 Speaker 1: ain't even got to these. Maybe it's like a Missouri, right, 3476 02:50:55,879 --> 02:50:59,680 Speaker 1: y'all show more like you know me and West Coast 3477 02:50:59,720 --> 02:51:03,320 Speaker 1: is and they identify the Midwest identifies with the South. 3478 02:51:03,680 --> 02:51:05,480 Speaker 1: Because they are nothing like the East coasts and nothing 3479 02:51:05,560 --> 02:51:07,560 Speaker 1: like the West coast. So just based on I did 3480 02:51:07,680 --> 02:51:10,560 Speaker 1: it in principle. That's why Washington, DC gravitates to the 3481 02:51:10,640 --> 02:51:13,960 Speaker 1: South because you nothing like the East Coast. You don't 3482 02:51:13,959 --> 02:51:15,520 Speaker 1: have to move that fast, you don't have to talk 3483 02:51:15,600 --> 02:51:18,720 Speaker 1: that fast. So when Texas niggas lose out, the South 3484 02:51:18,840 --> 02:51:21,000 Speaker 1: niggas come up. Make all the sense in the World's 3485 02:51:21,080 --> 02:51:23,480 Speaker 1: very easy for us to communicate to each other, even 3486 02:51:23,560 --> 02:51:25,800 Speaker 1: if it is different slang. You know what I'm saying. 3487 02:51:26,120 --> 02:51:28,720 Speaker 1: We get each other. We kind of moved the same way. 3488 02:51:29,560 --> 02:51:31,440 Speaker 4: Always laugh when you say you hit the vision the 3489 02:51:31,480 --> 02:51:36,920 Speaker 4: face with a pie out of Moldy. 3490 02:51:36,600 --> 02:51:39,880 Speaker 1: Looked at you and yeah, that's that's a fact. That's so. 3491 02:51:40,720 --> 02:51:43,600 Speaker 1: There's a very famous movie scene between Spencer, Tracy and 3492 02:51:43,680 --> 02:51:45,520 Speaker 1: Catter and he'll burn and I think he puts like 3493 02:51:45,600 --> 02:51:49,800 Speaker 1: a cake or something, but I remember that I've never 3494 02:51:49,840 --> 02:51:53,080 Speaker 1: seen a man do that.
