Speaker 3: break and come right back at what you know, come
Speaker 3: right back with it.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 3: There's a whole bunch of shit going on out there, man,
Speaker 3: I would say, Man, I just got finished talking to
Speaker 3: one of Crip Maxon boy, somebody he real close to, man,
Speaker 3: and he looking at giving three years. You know, he
Speaker 3: looking at the years, Grip mac m you know, so
Speaker 3: he's gonna do three years. I talked to his own
Speaker 3: boy and he told me that he was in good spirits.
Speaker 3: And you know the thing that I find out about
Speaker 3: that man, is that you know, krypt Mac is still
Speaker 3: fairly he fairly young, right right, And I think that
Speaker 3: he has this infatuation about jail. I think he thinks when.
Speaker 1: He goes to jail it makes him.
Speaker 3: I think it's one of his things. Man, he think
Speaker 3: it makes him just I think it certifies his gangster
Speaker 3: or whatever. You know what I mean.
Speaker 4: Well, you know back in the days, you know, I
Speaker 4: know that the the crazy mind state or the or
Speaker 4: the idea of you know, it's like a write of
Speaker 4: passage for some niggas.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 4: You know, especially when you in the banging stages of
Speaker 4: you know, in your adolescent ears, a lot of niggas
Speaker 4: looked at going to prison or y A or some
Speaker 4: shit like that as you know, that makes you certified official.
Speaker 1: You know, it's levels too, it's levels to it.
Speaker 4: You know, you can bang and sell dope or whatever whatever.
Speaker 4: But once you make it to that prison yard or
Speaker 4: you know, back in our days, even if you made
Speaker 4: it to CYA, you know, it was like shit, nigga,
Speaker 4: I'm you know, you do that bid and you come
Speaker 4: back and you looked at more as official because you
Speaker 4: done went and got your stripes.
Speaker 1: Man walking that yard, so I could see where.
Speaker 4: The influence of being incarcerated now not to you know,
Speaker 4: being locked up is bullshit. But like I said, in
Speaker 4: the adolescent mind of a lot of us back in
Speaker 4: my days, you know, twelve thirteen, we looked at niggas
Speaker 4: going to prison or jail as that niggas official, you
Speaker 4: feel me.
Speaker 1: But like you see it like a rite of passage, right.
Speaker 4: But you know, as a grown man, you see the
Speaker 4: dumbness and that ideology, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But as a young nigga, you know.
Speaker 4: Eighties and you banging and you you know, trying to
Speaker 4: seem reptible. Man, you know, going to jail for a
Speaker 4: bed or you know.
Speaker 1: For.
Speaker 4: Jacking a nigga or dumping on the nigga or anything. Man,
Speaker 4: once you make once you hit that yard, man, you
Speaker 4: looked at it certified.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess so, man, there ain't nothing the sweet
Speaker 1: as freedom though.
Speaker 4: Bro Oh definitely, you know, and you know that, you know,
Speaker 4: in this day and age right now, that's the most
Speaker 4: fucked up a shit.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: A lot of niggas was locked up over petty crimes,
Speaker 4: and you know, a shit like that, you know. But uh,
Speaker 4: then again, like I said, you felt like you were
Speaker 4: earning your stripes, you know by hitting that yard, especially
Speaker 4: if it was something you did for the neighborhood, you know,
Speaker 4: got out of enemy, you know, sold some drugs whatever.
Speaker 4: It was definitely yo yo yo. You know, like they
Speaker 4: punched you. You know, you get within them little tickets
Speaker 4: and once you punch the ticket, once you get so
Speaker 4: many punches, you get a prize or you get some
Speaker 4: something free. Man.
Speaker 1: That's what that is man, you know.
Speaker 4: So I don't know why a nigga would feel like
Speaker 4: that in twenty twenty four, you know, as going to jail,
Speaker 4: being a stamp on your official card. But you know,
Speaker 4: Krip Mack is he's full fledged. You know, I'm representative
Speaker 4: to that side of it. So if you get an
Speaker 4: idea like you said, I feel like it kind of
Speaker 4: makes him feel like, you know, I'm official nigga.
Speaker 1: I ain't just know.
Speaker 4: I ain't just knowing overnight Internet sensation like people as
Speaker 4: you know, nigga done been in and out the system
Speaker 4: and all of that. So and it happens to niggas,
Speaker 4: you know, just because you just overnight success or whatever shit,
Speaker 4: you got a record Man, it's gonna follow you, and
Speaker 4: especially if you're becoming popular.
Speaker 1: You know, they don't like that shit. You know, they
Speaker 1: they watching their ass. Yeah for real, you know what
Speaker 1: a thing is.
Speaker 3: Man, You know, three years fed time, I think he's
Speaker 3: better to do eighty percent of that time, right, That's
Speaker 3: what I'm hear in three years, you know, shut off
Speaker 3: to the homeboy Travis Forward. You know, he kind of
Speaker 3: keep up with a man, Travis, a young cat man
Speaker 3: that's on the move. Man doing some things right, right.
Speaker 3: And I messed with him here and there. Man, I
Speaker 3: think he a good up and coming, you know, young
Speaker 3: up and tim come and cat do it up and
Speaker 3: checking out.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 3: I like the way he move and stuff. And he
Speaker 3: was just telling me, man, you know he was talking
Speaker 3: to dude and krit Mack. I guess I don't like
Speaker 3: putting no other platforms out there.
Speaker 1: Whatever.
Speaker 3: But White had a no jumper that he messed with Adam.
Speaker 3: I guess he was upset because Adam could have did
Speaker 3: some things for him to help ease his case or whatever,
Speaker 3: and Adam, I guess didn't feel like messing with it.
Speaker 3: I don't know the details. I ain't gonna go too
Speaker 3: much into it. Because I ain't one forgot you know, Adam,
Speaker 3: that's his platform.
Speaker 1: I've seen that.
Speaker 4: I've seen that he had called Adam from jail and
Speaker 4: they was chopping it up. So I don't know what
Speaker 4: that you know what that's about. You know, that's what
Speaker 4: I've seen. So who knows, who knows what the story
Speaker 4: is if he's upset about it or if not. But
Speaker 4: he show uh went on the platform and called the
Speaker 4: platform from jail, so.
Speaker 3: You know, And that's why I said, I don't know, man,
Speaker 3: because you know, by the time you hear what really
Speaker 3: it happen, man, everything is twisted and tangle and that's
Speaker 3: his that's it. That's Adam's business. You know. I know
Speaker 3: I wouldn't be putting my business up on my crib
Speaker 3: up for nobody. You feel what I'm saying, right, I
Speaker 3: don't know, you know, depending on what I wouldn't do
Speaker 3: that for my kids.
Speaker 1: It depends on what they did. You feel what I mean?
Speaker 4: I mean, shit, you know, you love your motherfucker. You know,
Speaker 4: you love your family and all of that, but you know,
Speaker 4: sometimes circumstances may fall. But you know they looking at
Speaker 4: him as a cash cale. You get me, So you know,
Speaker 4: probably missing a lot of revenue being locked down, you
Speaker 4: feel me?
Speaker 1: So, oh for sure he missing a lot of money
Speaker 1: being locked up.
Speaker 3: Man. That dude is like, say what you say about
Speaker 3: Krip mac Man, Say what you say about that Brooks Man.
Speaker 1: I'm not no hater.
Speaker 3: He does his thing, you know me, and you saw
Speaker 3: firsthand because I had a lot of cats.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 3: It was almost like, you know, when when we came
Speaker 3: on our show, they was like, why you there? Want
Speaker 3: to want but when they watched them, they couldn't get
Speaker 3: enough of them. They were fans, right, you know. That's
Speaker 3: just that's just this era, man, the era.
Speaker 4: Of just like I get what they say content, or
Speaker 4: the era of just putting out shit and people want
Speaker 4: to see some shit.
Speaker 1: You feel me.
Speaker 4: It's just it's just unfortunate, especially black people.
Speaker 1: You know, we want to see some shit.
Speaker 4: We want to see some messy shit, we want to
Speaker 4: see some crazy shit. So that's the era of what's
Speaker 4: going on today. Motherfucker's gonna exploit that to the fullest
Speaker 4: if they can.
Speaker 1: Oh, Motherfucker's wanner really, man, Motherfucker's wanner really? What it
Speaker 1: is man, is I don't know if you remember when
Speaker 1: MTV first because MTV like first people, really, I can't
Speaker 1: say that they invented reality television. But when they came.
Speaker 3: With the Real World and all that, you remember they
Speaker 3: had the Gettle Boys on the Real World.

Speaker 1: the fuck is this ship?
Speaker 3: Like it was crazy? Man, you know TV started that. Man,
Speaker 3: to look at where it is right now, man, reality

Speaker 3: are natural. People have a natural curiosity out other people's lives.
Speaker 3: You feel what I'm saying. Everybody wants to be a
Speaker 3: fly on the wall if somebody ate, if somebody had
Speaker 3: the opportunity to watch you twenty four hours a day,

Speaker 3: has come to a crawl, and when you get to
Speaker 3: the accident, when you get to the point of the accident,

Speaker 3: traffic is being held up because people are stopping, and look,
Speaker 3: people are being nosy. And the worst the accident, the
Speaker 3: more the traffic. And then traffic ain't slowed up from
Speaker 3: the actual accident itself, to slow it up from the
Speaker 3: people driving by being lucky lose.

Speaker 3: get your ass out the street, glding up, motherfucking traffic.
Speaker 3: We got ship to do. He just being disrespectful as hell,
Speaker 3: and I'm like, the dude really need his ass for man. Man,
Speaker 3: I was just saying, man, it just seemed like that
Speaker 3: just people don't have no respect for age no more.
Speaker 1: Bro, It's like that has disappeared.
Speaker 5: I don't know if it's for age. I think disrespect
Speaker 5: in general is disappeared. I don't think it's really about age,
Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. I just think that's a
Speaker 5: shallow way to approach anything, you know, to start talking
Speaker 5: about somebody's age.
Speaker 1: So I think the most ignorant people, that's the first
Speaker 1: thing they could see. If they see somebody, that's gonna
Speaker 1: be the first thing they seen.
Speaker 5: I mean, I can remember being a part of the
Speaker 5: movements where people felt like certain ways about people. But
Speaker 5: the reality is, if you don't die, God willing you
Speaker 5: get older. So for any asshole that out ship, you
Speaker 5: either gonna die or be that nigga.
Speaker 3: Oh for sure, let's watch other motherfucker quit me. Keep
Speaker 3: on living, you know, Christ, you know, you know, keep
Speaker 3: on living.
Speaker 6: You can't you sug around? Come up short, Come up short.
Speaker 1: Thirty two for real.
Speaker 4: It's it's just like it's just a motherfucker situation of uh,
Speaker 4: of being, of having that young heart man, I mean,
Speaker 4: and a lot of niggas ain't taught right, you get me,
Speaker 4: Like I said, it was it was beneficial to have
Speaker 4: even though in the rough times, in the rough areas,
Speaker 4: it was beneficial to have a strong foundation at home. Now,
Speaker 4: a lot of motherfuckers didn't have dads and moms in
Speaker 4: the homes. You did, me, So that just a lot
Speaker 4: of us who grew up with the single moms. She
Speaker 4: just had to be strong and not be victim to
Speaker 4: a lot of the shit that was going on that
Speaker 4: young niggas like us could fall into. I got my
Speaker 4: ass whooped as a kid. You get me by my
Speaker 4: mom's when I did some stupid shit that was instilled
Speaker 4: in me to try to even though a nigga was
Speaker 4: banging and serving and shit, I still have respect for
Speaker 4: older people.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 4: I didn't cuss out the motherfucker who snitched on me
Speaker 4: when he caught me ditching school and told my moms.
Speaker 4: You know, I didn't go back and shoot up the
Speaker 4: nigga's house or or breaking a nigga's car or whatever whatever.
Speaker 4: I had to take that on the chin. You get me,
Speaker 4: so you know, I don't know. I guess it's that
Speaker 4: that mom. Moms used to insteal that fear, even though
Speaker 4: you know I was out there being a mischievous little nigga.
Speaker 4: If mom said I'd better get the fuck home, it
Speaker 4: wasn't no, like, yeah, whatever, I come home when I
Speaker 4: feel like it. No, it was like, if she sold
Speaker 4: the nigga, get the fuck home. I need to be
Speaker 4: trying to find away from the hood to the house
Speaker 4: or or she gonna be pulling up in.
Speaker 5: This motherfucker's gonna be embarrassing.
Speaker 4: You'd be a hard ass nigga, but you don't want
Speaker 4: to get embarrassed by your.
Speaker 1: Mom pulling like.
Speaker 4: Over here hanging out with these motherfucking niggas thinking you
Speaker 4: some motherfucking don't get your motherfucking ass in the car
Speaker 4: and get ready for school tomorrow, motherfucker. So you know,
Speaker 4: you you had to have that strong foundation because at
Speaker 4: the times, and it was easy to fall victim to
Speaker 4: a lot of shit.
Speaker 1: Uh it was easy. I mean shit.
Speaker 4: One times it was rolling through every day picking up
Speaker 4: young niggas like it wasn't shit. I mean you know
Speaker 4: back then, Tuesdays and Thursday's nigga, they coming through you
Speaker 4: hanging out, nigga, You going to jail, and if you
Speaker 4: are underage nigga like I was, nigga, they finish car home.
Speaker 1: Yes, you don't want that call and you like.
Speaker 4: Oh shit, motherfucker calling like yeah, we gonna come pick
Speaker 4: up your motherfucker's son. He down here at the count
Speaker 4: to something. You know, I'm like, oh shit, Then you

Speaker 4: tank and she's sitting in that lobby, nigga and just
Speaker 4: need to need me bouncing up and down, arms crossed niggas.
Speaker 4: That shit was going on constantly with a nigga. So
Speaker 4: I but then, like I said, I understand the frustrations,
Speaker 4: and so that's why I tried to I still try
Speaker 4: to have some sort of family respect foundation, uh, because yeah,
Speaker 4: I think that's what led to being you know, the
Speaker 4: person you are today. When you grow up and you
Speaker 4: start seeing those lessons that were being instilled, you get me, uh,
Speaker 4: Because it was a lot of us who fell victim
Speaker 4: to some parents didn't give a fuck, and a lot
Speaker 4: of niggas ended up dead, a lot of niggas ended
Speaker 4: up going to jail for life and all kinds of shit. Man,
Speaker 4: Because if if, if you didn't have a motherfucker who
Speaker 4: didn't didn't give a fuck about you and was trying
Speaker 4: to make sure that you know, nigga's it's dark outside.

Speaker 1: Air man shit?
Speaker 4: When I start going in and out of jail like
Speaker 4: every two to three weeks.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: I guess you know, you you start. I guess we
Speaker 4: all go through these stages. You know, you get to
Speaker 4: that stage where you come out of adolescents and you
Speaker 4: start feeling yourself a little bit.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: I started, you know, I started claiming the neighborhood around
Speaker 4: I don't know, I won't say, maybe fifteen, I start
Speaker 4: feeling myself, you get me.
Speaker 1: I had that attitude like, you can't tell me shit.
Speaker 1: Even know. I would never like, uh.
Speaker 4: That's my mom's out, or you know, fight my mom
Speaker 4: or some ship like that. I still was feeling myself like, nigga,
Speaker 4: I ain't going from the hood.
Speaker 1: And to me, I was like, so I would. I would.
Speaker 4: I would get in the little resistance matches with my
Speaker 4: mom where she would try to tell me I couldn't
Speaker 4: go to the hood or I bet not this, and
Speaker 4: I bet not that. And I started feeling myself and going,
Speaker 4: fuck that, I'm going and you know, can't tell me
Speaker 4: I can't go. And I started rebelling. And the next thing,
Speaker 4: you know, and I was going, you know, just on
Speaker 4: gang sweeps. You know, we was going to jail. Maybe
Speaker 4: every other Tuesday and ship because of the gang sweeps.
Speaker 4: I think around that time, Mom started seeing that I
Speaker 4: was coming into a different error, and then I left
Speaker 4: home at sixteen. I left home, I guess feeling like
Speaker 4: the middle kid. You know, you got a younger brother
Speaker 4: and then your sister is older. I guess you feel
Speaker 4: a certain way when you're the middle kid. You know,
Speaker 4: you're feeling like you're getting less of shit and you
Speaker 4: always got to take the back in the back seat
Speaker 4: or whatever. So I left home. I thought I was
Speaker 4: I thought I was a hard hit. I thought I
Speaker 4: was a hard hited little nigga. Had me some little
Speaker 4: pussy on deck, you know, up in Long Beach. So
Speaker 4: I was like, nigga, I wouldn't I wouldn't post it
Speaker 4: up with the little broad in her mom and family.
Speaker 4: Moms used to come through like bring your ass home,
Speaker 4: and at that time, I was like getting ready to
Speaker 4: turn eighteen.
Speaker 1: I was like, man, I ain't coming back over there.
Speaker 3: Man. You know what I did, Man one day, and
Speaker 3: I never will forget this. I remember when I first
Speaker 3: started getting kind of swollen. I was always a big nigga,
Speaker 3: but when I started lifting, I was kind to be floored.
Speaker 3: I started going up the King Kennedy and lifting weights
Speaker 3: and stuff in the little rec center.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: You know the waist they had in a little wreck
Speaker 3: while you got the little nautlet set like you got
Speaker 3: the bink press with the waist to go up to
Speaker 3: about one eighty five, you got to left the little
Speaker 3: curl bars. I started lifting that summer, and I started
Speaker 3: getting real swollen, real fast.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: I remember my mama tried to hit me with a
Speaker 3: belt and not grab health like this and stopt her.
Speaker 3: And she stole on me so hard. She said, let
Speaker 3: let it go. She tried to pull it, let it go,
Speaker 3: Let it go, and she punched me, man, And it
Speaker 3: wasn't really hurting that laugh that one of them, and.
Speaker 1: She hit me again. Man. Man, she took a glass. Man,
Speaker 1: I was walking away.
Speaker 3: I ain't like, I ain't taking this no more people

Speaker 4: and be like, I crack you in the head.
Speaker 1: Mother.
Speaker 3: If you asked my mama about that, now, she would
Speaker 3: deny that ship. But my mama will pick up anything
Speaker 3: that was within the range and try to whoop my
Speaker 3: ass with it.
Speaker 1: It's just that.
Speaker 3: Wow. Man, I ain't never disrespect my mama though, but
Speaker 3: I would just block stuff like this.
Speaker 1: I would just blocking and hold it.
Speaker 4: Big, look like ass like big motherfucker, don't you block
Speaker 4: my ship?
Speaker 1: Take this? How tall? Was irick?
Speaker 4: She?
Speaker 1: Man?
Speaker 3: My mom?
Speaker 1: Man? My mom was very bit of man, probably about
Speaker 1: five six.
Speaker 4: You needed a big old, big old I was video
Speaker 4: ass down here so I could slap the ship at you.
Speaker 1: That's what she let me whoop your past. And my
Speaker 1: father was the type. She didn't care. Man.
Speaker 3: I'd be out there with my friends with my homeboys,
Speaker 3: hanging out.
Speaker 1: She'd had to build Come here, come in the house,
Speaker 1: come in the house.
Speaker 3: And I remember one day I told her one day,
Speaker 3: I ain't watch no dishes because she used to tell
Speaker 3: me to wash dishes and clean up, right, I told
Speaker 3: her one day, I ain't watch no dishes. I was
Speaker 3: with my.
Speaker 1: Friends acting mad.
Speaker 3: He let me stay out there, and my friends like, oh,
Speaker 3: you told your mama that, And I was like, yeah,
Speaker 3: she knows what's up.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 3: I went to the house man and got the down
Speaker 3: in my life man, beat down. But you know what
Speaker 3: some of those is, some of those lessons, though, that
Speaker 3: you keep instilled in you, because that's what makes you,
Speaker 3: like you said, that's what makes you in your reaction
Speaker 3: towards the little old lady from Pasadena.
Speaker 1: You know that you saw.
Speaker 4: That's what makes your reaction that because of the respect
Speaker 4: you had for your elders, because.
Speaker 1: You know, your mom.
Speaker 4: Probably would have knocked the shit out of you if
Speaker 4: she caught you talking back to somebody that was an elder.
Speaker 4: It don't give a fuck who it was. It didn't
Speaker 4: have to be your uncle or your auntie, your mother.
Speaker 4: All they had to be was older. And if they
Speaker 4: was an older, if they was an older adult man,
Speaker 4: they could tell your ass anything and you better listen.
Speaker 4: And if a motherfucker it's like like today, a motherfucker goo,
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I guess you know today Uh, if.
Speaker 4: A motherfucker try to discipline your child, you be in
Speaker 4: a nigga's ass.
Speaker 1: You get me.
Speaker 4: But Ship, back in our days when we was coming up, man, please,
Speaker 4: motherfucker be like, oh he was in trouble. Ship, you
Speaker 4: should have knocked his ass in the next week if
Speaker 4: you called his ass doing that. Ship, I mean it
Speaker 4: was Walton ms Clark was still using that long stick,
Speaker 4: tearing nigga's hands up and legs up and all that.
Speaker 1: This is this is in the nineties. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess it was that. I guess it was that.
Speaker 4: You know that turnament takes a village, because that's that's.
Speaker 1: What it was. You get me.
Speaker 4: In those times, I guess you know, uh, the adults
Speaker 4: saw what was coming. You get me as far as
Speaker 4: uh because a lot of you know me growing up
Speaker 4: in the seventies, I was naive to a lot of
Speaker 4: shit as a kid growing up, and then once I
Speaker 4: turned a certain age, it was like a whole motherfucking
Speaker 4: like the Matrix shit. You know, once you take the
Speaker 4: pill the reality of real world sets in and you like,
Speaker 4: god damn, we live in in Counting and niggas is
Speaker 4: drive by shooting, And that reality didn't hit me when
Speaker 4: I was like four or five. Like these kids today.
Speaker 4: You catch a seven eight year old and they you know,
Speaker 4: they know the business. Me as a five six year
Speaker 4: old kid, I was naive to what was going on outside.
Speaker 4: You're getting niggas gang banging and drug dealings and and
Speaker 4: motherfucker drive by shootings, but shit about you know. So
Speaker 4: I guess that was the It takes a village was
Speaker 4: andy with a lot of us coming up because those
Speaker 4: adults back then, who were in their forties and fifties,
Speaker 4: they seen what was getting established you get me, within
Speaker 4: the neighborhoods and the gangs and shit. So if you
Speaker 4: had some three year olds and some four year olds,
Speaker 4: five year olds, it was very imperative to try to,
Speaker 4: you know, keep them grounded because we saw the realities
Speaker 4: of what was going on in the neighborhoods. And like
Speaker 4: I said, a lot of us we got led straight
Speaker 4: by by being from the hood. You get me, especially
Speaker 4: a lot of motherfuckers who didn't have the father figures around,
Speaker 4: you know, because once when my fox left California and
Speaker 4: moved out of state. I was a young you know,
Speaker 4: I was in the cartoons and playing football and all that.
Speaker 1: But once he.
Speaker 4: Left and then moms was out the house mostly all
Speaker 4: of time from working double jobs. Nigga, Like I said,
Speaker 4: my eyes was open to like, wow, this is what's
Speaker 4: going on out here.
Speaker 1: Nigga signed me the.
Speaker 3: Fuck Well, I'm gonna tell you, Doug where it got
Speaker 3: real fucked up that man.
Speaker 1: I remember when crack first hit dog and.
Speaker 3: You had people man whose mama started smoking man, And it.
Speaker 1: Was the craziest shit ever.
Speaker 3: Because you had like, you know, they would try to
Speaker 3: maintain at first, right, they would try to maintain. They
Speaker 3: would be like like nobody would talk about it, right,
Speaker 3: and then they moms would be just full flags, just
Speaker 3: out there, just straight, just in the mode.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: So most of them kids dogs started doing what the
Speaker 3: hell they wanted to do. Right, Like I had a
Speaker 3: homeboy man I ain't gonna say his names. Me and
Speaker 3: I'm still friends, but he had started slinging and we
Speaker 3: was all able to go do serving shit from consignment
Speaker 3: from this one cat. Right, he was the same nigga.
Speaker 3: He was always the nigga that had a hustle like
Speaker 3: he would have niggas in the cool selling joints, like
Speaker 3: you get twenty five off a hundred.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: Remember that hustle, Hey, remember like he if you wanted
Speaker 3: to get some money, you could fuck with this one
Speaker 3: nigga and get like twenty five off every hundred you kept, right,
Speaker 3: every undugars you got, you got to keep twenty five
Speaker 3: of them, right. So when the crack shift first came,
Speaker 3: he had the same thing going on, something like that, right,
Speaker 3: And I remember the homie was sad man because his
Speaker 3: mama smoked his stash up. She found this stash dog
Speaker 3: and then she was out there doing some mother shit
Speaker 3: dog and it was just crazy dog.
Speaker 1: It was like the homiees it was.
Speaker 3: There was a lot of enemies made man behind that
Speaker 3: ship because this nigga actually wound up becoming somebody in
Speaker 3: the neighborhood and he always remembered that shit dog. And
Speaker 3: you had certain dudes. That's when so like, the crack
Speaker 3: ship was just so sad to.
Speaker 4: Me because you saw why do you think that a
Speaker 4: lot of people fell victim to you know what the
Speaker 4: crack era, You see coming out of the seventies. You know,
Speaker 4: a lot of motherfuckers was in the military. He went
Speaker 4: to the Vietnam War. A lot of that ship. Uh,
Speaker 4: my father, my pops was in the naky and he
Speaker 4: was getting he was a who was who was he
Speaker 4: indulged in in the ship that was outside of the.
Speaker 1: Ordinary, and so I was function Was he functioning? Yeah?
Speaker 4: The nigga worked for General Motors, was almost for thirty
Speaker 4: years until he died.
Speaker 3: See, you know what, man, I think you hit us
Speaker 3: because for the most part, most smokers there was dudes
Speaker 3: that was like functioning addicts, like dudes to steal with
Speaker 3: the work. They got hired the motherfucker, but they still
Speaker 3: wouldn't work and kept themselves somewhat decent.
Speaker 1: You feel what I mean? You had some.
Speaker 4: My pops went to work General Motors, worked on that line,
Speaker 4: you know, was a supervisor all that type of ship
Speaker 4: for thirty years. But shaid Friday come it was party time,
Speaker 4: and you probably couldn't find the nigga until it was
Speaker 4: time to go to work Monday morning.
Speaker 3: I think you hit it so hard eight because I
Speaker 3: think we was we were already dealing with a certain
Speaker 3: degree of mental aanguage man, like most of the people
Speaker 3: that really started smoking crack, man did it so to
Speaker 3: kind of escape some of their problems. Man, because I've
Speaker 3: never tried that ship. Man, But people that used to
Speaker 3: smoke that ship tell me that shit felt incredible.
Speaker 4: Said, never smoked that ship, But niggas what niggas bout
Speaker 4: that ship and turned into the incredible hawk or some shit.
Speaker 1: Man, let me tell you what my brother told me. Man.
Speaker 1: My brother told me he started off by smoking moles right.

Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we just stay away from the mushrooms.
Speaker 3: I said, I tell you that that cracking that mushroom
Speaker 3: ship two different things. Because I'm gonna tell you, man,
Speaker 3: I thought my brother was BN. I didn't never think
Speaker 3: we'd get him back, bro, because this nigga man had
Speaker 3: got to the point my brother told me at one time,
Speaker 3: he said, Man, at one time, I was smoking six
Speaker 3: seven thousand dollars worth of rock every day, always was
Speaker 3: able to go get the money for it.
Speaker 1: So what made him come back to reality?
Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you this, man, I think Man just
Speaker 3: he looked up one day, man and just was he
Speaker 3: was sitting at the bus station. Man didn't have nowhere
Speaker 3: to go because at this time he had tried coming
Speaker 3: out here to stay with me. Right, that didn't work.
Speaker 3: I wound up kicksing his ass back home like two
Speaker 3: weeks later, right, you know, one said I'm give up
Speaker 3: to on you dog. It ain't too much else because
Speaker 3: your mama go go to the end for your ass, right, Yeah,
Speaker 3: killing all my mama's jewelry, stealing TVs and shit, and
Speaker 3: they she had to kick.
Speaker 1: Him out, right, So he wound up.
Speaker 3: Man sitting down at the terminal tower at the bus station. Man,
Speaker 3: and he said, Man, he just looked at hisself. Man,
Speaker 3: he passed by a mirror and looked at hisself. He
Speaker 3: his hair grew in the dreads. Man. He was sitting
Speaker 3: in his own pissed man, and he was just he
Speaker 3: was just done. And he made a decision. Man, he
Speaker 3: just said, I'm not doing this shit no more. And
Speaker 3: he said. It wasn't quite that instant, but my brother
Speaker 3: really went cold turkey and stopped that shit. Man, My
Speaker 3: brother stopped getting high. Man, maybe twenty years or fifteen years,
Speaker 3: twenty years ago. Dog had been clean ever since then. Tho.
Speaker 3: He just said he just got tired of it. He'd
Speaker 3: be the first one to tell you. Man, he don't
Speaker 3: feel my brother. Don't show him past, he said, Man,
Speaker 3: mother fluckers get high as they want, he said, because
Speaker 3: they want to. If motherfucker want to top someth nigga
Speaker 3: stop it. And I told him, I said, well, everybody's
Speaker 3: probably not as strong as you bill, But he said, no,
Speaker 3: that's some bullshit. Man, We're so cold. Because he thought
Speaker 3: about it. He said, Man, if I was able to
Speaker 3: go get six seven thousand dollars a day by hook quok,
Speaker 3: just to go give it the dope, man, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: apply that same hustle to myself. That's some money getting nigga.
Speaker 1: Though, Man, I know, I mean you have to change.
Speaker 4: I guess you have to change your own state and
Speaker 4: your mentality, and you have to take yourself from from still.
Speaker 4: I'm tired of being broke, dirty and homey and whatever,
Speaker 4: and I got to improve. And I know that's easy
Speaker 4: to stay when you ain't walking that motherfucking tight rope
Speaker 4: and shit. But anything is better than being smoked out
Speaker 4: having nothing, you get me, Uh, I know the struggle
Speaker 4: is real, and working in nine to five maybe hat folk,
Speaker 4: but ain't nothing. Ain't nothing better than just being a
Speaker 4: motherfucking straight.
Speaker 1: Up motherfucker and having your.
Speaker 4: Life clean, your family, respect you, respect from your peers,
Speaker 4: and trying to just be a motherfucker who to keep
Speaker 4: him sustain today because it's rough for everybody.
Speaker 1: Shit, you get me, Well, yeah, you know what's crazy, man?
Speaker 1: I think? Man to a certain extent, we can't.
Speaker 3: The mind is a powerful thing, right, But I do
Speaker 3: think drug addiction nels a disease, man, and some people
Speaker 3: need help, right.
Speaker 1: But even with that, you have to want to go
Speaker 1: get help, you know what I'm saying, right, you have
Speaker 1: to want to go get him, you know.
Speaker 3: You know they came up with this risk with the
Speaker 3: Jeffrey Epstein cat man.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've been paying attention to a little of that ship.
Speaker 3: You know they try to bring there. They said, Michael
Speaker 3: Jackson's name is on.
Speaker 4: They've been saying all kinds of ship.
Speaker 1: So what is the idea? You know, I know we
Speaker 1: almost at.
Speaker 4: The end, but uh, what the fuck is the purpose
Speaker 4: of revealing names because people want to you know, are
Speaker 4: they going to prosecute or are they saying these people
Speaker 4: assisted the nigga with with you know, getting these underage
Speaker 4: females and uh these these freak fest way it was
Speaker 4: having on the island or whatever. What is the point
Speaker 4: behind it?
Speaker 1: Is my thing?
Speaker 4: Like, people just want to know who was assisting my
Speaker 4: nigga or who was partaking.
Speaker 3: Who taking because they really go put mo the fuggers
Speaker 3: in jail.
Speaker 4: But you know what I'm saying, is it is it
Speaker 4: a quest to reveal names to go after uh these
Speaker 4: motherfucker's or is it just somebody's agenda to just let
Speaker 4: motherfuckers know, Hey, I don't want to let you know
Speaker 4: this nigga was at the island too, and this nigga
Speaker 4: was helping and this motherfucker, this motherfucker. Or are they
Speaker 4: gonna actually sit down and go, oh, you was there,
Speaker 4: so now we're gonna prosecute you for underage and all
Speaker 4: that shit.
Speaker 3: I think with the eos BRO, I think more than
Speaker 3: anything else, I think they go prosecute who they can.
Speaker 3: Of course, what I do them understand about Michael Jackson's
Speaker 3: did so I don't even see the calls them even
Speaker 3: you know, giving can't do nothing. What they gonna do
Speaker 3: dig them up and reanimat them.
Speaker 4: Just like I said, what is the agenda behind it?
Speaker 4: And I get it because you got if you got
Speaker 4: motherfuckers out there who are behind, you know, in the
Speaker 4: closet with their bullshit and they might be continuing that
Speaker 4: same motherfucking lifestyle today and they're still around. Of course
Speaker 4: you want to expose the motherfuckers because you know, but uh,
Speaker 4: I get, I get what you said. You know what's
Speaker 4: the point, Michael Jackson. You know how people are with
Speaker 4: with with conspiracy and ship like you know what.
Speaker 1: One thing about it do?
Speaker 3: They didn't say Mike was doing and they just mintioned
Speaker 3: his name and whenever you gotta do this like it,
Speaker 3: I guess a hot button name or whatever, a celebrity
Speaker 3: name that makes it more even just that much more
Speaker 3: in relatious. But Jeffery Epstein, you know he killed himself. Man,
Speaker 3: he was doing some terrible ship. You know that was
Speaker 3: one of the worst people living.
Speaker 4: I mean yeah, I mean from from what has been
Speaker 4: reported and what we know and what he was charged with.
Speaker 1: Uh, it was some. It was some. It was some
Speaker 1: fucked up ship. You get me.
Speaker 3: Uh, you know, anytime you got a crime like that
Speaker 3: involved in underage children, dogs and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: Man, I really don't.
Speaker 4: I just you know, everything ain't motherfucking make believe you
Speaker 4: get me as I want to say. We see a
Speaker 4: lot of shit portrayed and movies and and and read
Speaker 4: books and stories or whatever. It's some crazy motherfuckers out here.
Speaker 4: You get me to where you you know, you've really
Speaker 4: got a question, you know, uh, lifestyle of motherfuckers who
Speaker 4: make those decisions to do uh fucking undercut shit like
Speaker 4: that because I'm just a regular motherfucker, you feel me,
Speaker 4: and half the ship these motherfuckers do. I could never
Speaker 4: see just a normal motherfucker doing shit right. But it's
Speaker 4: like then it's always some crazy mother a fucker with
Speaker 4: with with power and connections who want to do the
Speaker 4: crazy who want to do that that TV ship you
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, niggas probably in their clients and
Speaker 4: asshole naked with weed she boards and ship trying to
Speaker 4: conjure upt ship.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, They.
Speaker 4: Ship that, these motherfucking with money and again it's always
Speaker 4: a motherfucker with some dollars in their pocket.
Speaker 1: Why do they turn out to be the weird those man?
Speaker 3: Because if you notice with all these guys, they ultimately
Speaker 3: all trying to force people to do some ship that
Speaker 3: they don't want to do, and they use money as
Speaker 3: the too to grant they wish it, so to speak,
Speaker 3: right like you think, And it's like, you know, from
Speaker 3: the whole ship with things, this ship with p Diddy,
Speaker 3: it's all the same ship to me, bro, because all
Speaker 3: these people are powerful people, but they've used money as
Speaker 3: a way to will they wait around on people and
Speaker 3: just I want you to do this.
Speaker 1: You're gonna do this for me, and you go put
Speaker 1: self the consequences.
Speaker 4: It's it's it's as as as big as this world
Speaker 4: is and not to be just whatever. It's some motherfuckers
Speaker 4: who will do that ship if you just pay them.
Speaker 4: So why put yourself in some dumb situations where you
Speaker 4: you become this outlandish character or human because shit, it's
Speaker 4: some growd motherfuckers out here. Go motherfucker paid me and
Speaker 4: I'll gladly let you do whatever you want to do.
Speaker 3: So Riah, you become a disgrace man. It's like and
Speaker 3: then my thing is just a don't fuck lead the
Speaker 3: kids alone.
Speaker 1: Go pay a grandmotherfucker to do what you wanted to do.
Speaker 4: Go pay an old grandmotherfucker to dress up like a baby,
Speaker 4: if that's your fattish or your stupid shit. Like again,
Speaker 4: it's it's always a motherfucker with too much time and
Speaker 4: money on their hands that gets caught up in some
Speaker 4: weird ass fantasized fucking bullshit. And you know, I guess
Speaker 4: you know niggas be bored in time on their hands
Speaker 4: or whatever this shit may be. But as a normal motherfucker.
Speaker 4: There's just certain shit I feel that you shouldn't even
Speaker 4: you that shouldn't even cross your minds. Some people just
Speaker 4: some people be really sick though, so you know who
Speaker 4: knows what their mental capacity is?
Speaker 1: You feel me, You gotta be.
Speaker 4: You gotta be a mental motherfucker to want to walk
Speaker 4: down that road, you feel me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But just thinking about it, like you had the.
Speaker 3: Politicians that live in Florida now, they spent the last
Speaker 3: decade and so campaigning against homosexuality and know all kind
Speaker 3: of stuff, and you find out, man, the old girl
Speaker 3: is down there looking more coochie than it than anybody

Speaker 3: She got videos and stuff they saying that her and
Speaker 3: her husband on PEG team and on rape motherfuckers and
Speaker 3: all kind of shit.
