Speaker 7: know what I'm saying. We got a variety of different styles,
Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying, different neighborhoods.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 6: Shit, we pushing And then I can't remember exactly like
Speaker 6: how far back this was, but I know you had.
Speaker 5: One hundred pair of red.
Speaker 6: Bottom and giveaway for the all of the people that
Speaker 6: had at least a three point Do you have any
Speaker 6: plans on doing anything similar to that in the near future.
Speaker 7: I haven't done anything similar to that, but every year
Speaker 7: I do charity events from back to school, Thanksgiving, Christmas
Speaker 7: every year. I've been doing that for like the past
Speaker 7: eight nine years.
Speaker 5: Cool.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I did that because I just had them shoes
Speaker 7: sitting in the house and I was looking at them, and.
Speaker 2: I got a hundred pair of red bottoms sitting.
Speaker 7: I had more than one hundred, but I mean, you know,
Speaker 7: accumulated over years.
Speaker 1: I buy them all in one year, so I cuminate
Speaker 1: over years.
Speaker 7: So I'm like, man, it was something I put my
Speaker 7: foot in my mouth. I said I was gonna do it,
Speaker 7: so I had to do it.
Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 8: The biggest events and disavents of living up here doing lows.
Speaker 7: To a music it's really no, it's no record, like
Speaker 7: what's here when people think of that's the discipent. Yeah,
Speaker 7: so so in no radio play, so like the South
Speaker 7: for y'all at y'all got urban urban radio stations, Yeah,
Speaker 7: we don't have that here. So it's like whatever they
Speaker 7: plan has already written out that we played. If we
Speaker 7: got to like like a big DJ really got to
Speaker 7: try to break up artists and they really can't, like
Speaker 7: we're overhead, ain't gonna let them do, And then we
Speaker 7: don't have like a real big.
Speaker 5: Night life you know, and a lot of y'all got strip.
Speaker 7: Clubs, break records. We don't have that type of shit here,
Speaker 7: So break records. Yeah, it ain't no breaking man. We
Speaker 7: got we got we got people trying to do a
Speaker 7: little after hours like book pays, uh DJ millions, a
Speaker 7: couple other guys today doing like underground underground hip hop
Speaker 7: after our things and playing records. Thats what's hot in
Speaker 7: the streets or whatever. But that's only going so far.
Speaker 7: So I tell my artists it is like, you gotta
Speaker 7: get out. You gotta you gotta out, you gotta get
Speaker 7: on the road, you gotta do press runs, you gotta.
Speaker 1: Go shake your hand and meet a friend. You get
Speaker 1: what I'm saying.
Speaker 7: You gotta go getting these DJ faced, especially if you're
Speaker 7: trying to break a record, like get hot where you
Speaker 7: at and then branch out.
Speaker 6: So I know that you were you're planning a tour
Speaker 6: with fab and like some of the other like like
Speaker 6: I know, it's like long long, long ago, but then
Speaker 6: you had an unfortunate situation where you got locked up,
Speaker 6: and you know what I'm saying, you have some shit
Speaker 6: go down or whatever. So what exactly led up to
Speaker 6: that and what changes did you make to make sure
Speaker 6: that that same type of situation didn't happen to you again.
Speaker 7: So I always wanted bigger and better just in life period,
Speaker 7: not even just in music. So I'm like, okay, cool,
Speaker 7: I got some relationship with some guys from Oakland that's
Speaker 7: doing what they're doing. Let's put something. So we put
Speaker 7: something together. But a lot of things gotta be funded.
Speaker 7: Studio gotta be funded, videos gotta be funded.
Speaker 1: Flyers.
Speaker 7: At this time, we pressing up albums, posters, whatever. So
Speaker 7: I mean they ain't had no nine to five, so
Speaker 7: it's still still on the block, right, So you might
Speaker 7: catch a couple of hiccups. I ain't catch a pistol case,
Speaker 7: so you catch your dope case, right. So that's what
Speaker 7: that led up to, you know, trapping. You know I
Speaker 7: s got kids take care of you know what I'm
Speaker 7: saying right right, I ain't had nobody put me in
Speaker 7: the studio and pay for it or pay for my
Speaker 7: videos or shit like that that you.
Speaker 1: Know we gotta pay for as in being a rapper. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what you saying.
Speaker 4: Some keys from transitioning from you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 4: like the streets all the way.
Speaker 1: Into just the industry.
Speaker 4: What's some keys to like even the youngsters out there
Speaker 4: that's trying to transition.
Speaker 7: To shoot, what's the key to transitioning?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Uh, it was hard for me, like I said, cause of.
Speaker 1: The funding for me.
Speaker 7: But once you start seeing a fan base, once you
Speaker 7: start seeing a revenue off of it, then that's like
Speaker 7: an eye opening like, okay, cool, I could do. This
Speaker 7: started from when Ninka Ride pass playing your music like ooh,
Speaker 7: and it's like okay. Then you get a check from
Speaker 7: iTunes and book from a book for a show.
Speaker 4: But how you deal with that check from iTunes not
Speaker 4: being the check.
Speaker 7: Back then I'm not talking about I guess right then
Speaker 7: you know it's all streaming and everything different right now,
Speaker 7: but I'm talking back. Okay, cool, they're fucking with me.
Speaker 7: So now it's like okay, man, I gotta.
Speaker 5: Go even harder. So that was some advice that Dolphin
Speaker 5: gave me, Like.
Speaker 7: Once you get, once you once you get popping, once
Speaker 7: you get how you gotta go even harder.
Speaker 1: A lot of people want to stagnate and be content.
Speaker 7: And you know what I'm saying, now, you you made
Speaker 7: one hit, he only made when he can he make.
Speaker 5: Two or he made two, he can't make three, you
Speaker 5: know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So it's like a lot of people.
Speaker 7: I don't ever stop, Like every day I'm doing something musically,
Speaker 7: like if I'm not even rapid, if it's getting an
Speaker 7: artist album cover done, mixing master in a video, whatever,
Speaker 7: I'm doing something musically. That's the way you're gonna be
Speaker 7: getting great with this ship.
Speaker 1: Think easy city, like wreck your music and.
Speaker 5: The easiest city.
Speaker 7: I couldn't say Atlanta because Atlanta really don't break the South.
Speaker 1: I mean not to break like California niggas like that,
Speaker 1: like you know what I'm saying, But here I would
Speaker 1: have to say like.
Speaker 7: La because that's closed. But like they got labels there,
Speaker 7: we don't got no labels here. The biggest thing we
Speaker 7: got here is empire, you know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 7: it's like like in the South ship, I've been moving
Speaker 7: around the South like can the scream before.
Speaker 2: You know it?
Speaker 1: It's a it's a support. I don't watch it. I
Speaker 1: have seen little baby bus everybody push on it. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Out of seen future.
Speaker 7: I've seen everybody get behind everybody. Yeah, got that here,
Speaker 7: it's crabbing the buckets.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 7: Its crabbing the buckets a certain few that dude like
Speaker 7: funck with each other, but everybody don't.
Speaker 6: So how do you prevent that crabbing a bucket mentality
Speaker 6: from discouraging you to go harder?
Speaker 1: Like you said, I know what I want.
Speaker 7: I know what I want, Thomas, since thin't thank common,
Speaker 7: so a lot of people they get they get stuck
Speaker 7: in the in the like, oh man, nigga ain't fucking
Speaker 7: yeah shit, I don't eve a fucking niggas fucking me.
Speaker 7: That's not you know what I'm saying. I was born
Speaker 7: this motherfucker by myself and can go by myself. So
Speaker 7: I'm doing this for myself. I'm not doing this for you,
Speaker 7: and I'm not the type of nigga for everybody life.
Speaker 7: I don't if everybody likes you, something wrong, you know
Speaker 7: what I'm saying. So like that's my whole mentality anyway.
Speaker 7: Plus that's my transition.
Speaker 2: From the block.
Speaker 5: That's how it was on the block before rapping.
Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying, I dealt with niggas on
Speaker 7: the block and not liking so rapping really, you know,
Speaker 7: you mad at me because I'm I'm rapping better, or
Speaker 7: I got more shows, or or the people like me
Speaker 7: more like, that's that's minor, you know.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying. Like, so it's just that basically, like
Speaker 1: you know, you got you gotta think outside of and
Speaker 1: know that that color. If you ain't ready for hate,
Speaker 1: you ain't.
Speaker 5: Ready for sucess.
Speaker 6: So how important do you think like family, well not
Speaker 6: even necessarily like blood family, but like your friends that
Speaker 6: are family are to your or.
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, how do.
Speaker 6: You think how important do you think your friend's family
Speaker 6: is relative to your success when you're coming up as
Speaker 6: far as.
Speaker 1: Support your friends family?
Speaker 6: Yeah, Like, like like your niggas that you look like
Speaker 6: as your brother's probably more than your like fucking mother's brothers.
Speaker 1: I'm actually closer to.
Speaker 7: My day ones and niggas from my neighborhood and my
Speaker 7: family at Yeah, so because we end up becoming family
Speaker 7: due to not having a family support, right, you know
Speaker 7: what I'm saying. So me looking up to the older
Speaker 7: niggas in in the hood, me not having the pops
Speaker 7: in my life made me look up to them, you
Speaker 7: know what I'm saying, and learn things that I should
Speaker 7: have been learning from pops, learning from them. So it
Speaker 7: plays a big part because I feel like it's a
Speaker 7: support system and you need that, especially if you you
Speaker 7: know you doing this.
Speaker 1: Like everything I do, I do for my kids. My
Speaker 1: son is here, I do for.
Speaker 7: My neighborhood, I do for my family also, like I
Speaker 7: take pride in doing for and seeing other people successful.
Speaker 1: The people that you care about, Yeah, people, I care
Speaker 1: about that.
Speaker 4: But if you got a if you got a crew,
Speaker 4: in your opinion, like if you got a crew of like,
Speaker 4: let's say twenty people, because we see a lot of
Speaker 4: shit going on in the media, but if you got
Speaker 4: a crew of twenty people, that average crew, not necessarily
Speaker 4: saying your crew, if it comes down to it and
Speaker 4: shit hit the fan in them cruise, how many people
Speaker 4: you think gonna keep it silent? Because we're seeing like
Speaker 4: multiple crews, not pointing at just one situation, but we're
Speaker 4: seeing like multiple situations where niggas might rowing ten niggas,
Speaker 4: twenty niggas, thirty niggas, But when they come down to it,
Speaker 4: it's almost like the people that you expect to keep
Speaker 4: it silent, don't it vice versa.
Speaker 1: What's your thoughts on that I've seen a saying one somewhere.
Speaker 7: I think it's say, like, is it a three out
Speaker 7: of four or one out of three niggas in the groove?
Speaker 1: Oh a snitch? One out of three? Yeah, I believe
Speaker 1: I've seen that somewhere. I believe two out of three,
Speaker 1: like three out of four, it's one or two, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So what what kind of mindset
Speaker 1: would that put?
Speaker 4: You're just saying in general, you and if you know
Speaker 4: you with you like you with ten niggas, like.
Speaker 7: If somebody gonna throw I mean, is it something that
Speaker 7: you can't control? Like you won't find out into it happened.
Speaker 7: You will hope that everybody stay solid. But I mean,
Speaker 7: what niggas you know how.
Speaker 1: You feel me to stay solid?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 7: So that's the part of part of it, Like you
Speaker 7: never know into it happened. You can't really they could
Speaker 7: be a gangster, this nigga, touch this nigga in the
Speaker 7: world until something happening and something changed, you know what
Speaker 7: I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's crazy, that's crazy. It's another famous lyric.
Speaker 4: That resonates with La Face with the opening booty here,
Speaker 4: where where did that?
Speaker 1: What did that?
Speaker 5: What does that mean?
Speaker 1: Like, why do you think, man, that's before my time?
Speaker 1: But apparently a pretty face and a nice ass what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, so.
Speaker 6: Than lasses probably at that time.
Speaker 1: Yes see, right now, I probably like a probly I'll probably.
Speaker 2: Say like a uh.
Speaker 1: See, I'm like thick.
Speaker 5: Women, you know what I'm saying, because I used to
Speaker 5: be skinning.
Speaker 1: I used to be real skin you know what I'm.
Speaker 5: Saying, So it wouldn't count be no bones hit no bones,
Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: It just like thick women.
Speaker 7: So I probably like an l A ass or a
Speaker 7: Houston ad. I mean Atlanta ass or Houston as you
Speaker 7: can drag Atlanta to.
Speaker 1: Face.
Speaker 7: It ain't really it ain't really like it ain't that
Speaker 7: many thick ones like that out here though.
Speaker 1: It's more slimmer kind of like in La though.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So what else we need to know about? Ok,

Speaker 7: Or they'll say that we the gatekeepers and locking them out.
Speaker 1: I'll be hearing that ship.
Speaker 5: There's no way for that to happen.
Speaker 7: It's it's it's it's social media. You're gonna man, you

Speaker 7: out of my mouth. I ain't got no time to
Speaker 7: even telling them.
Speaker 1: Turn out what the next guy tell the next man?
Speaker 1: I have to fuck with the next man. You know

Speaker 1: nigga ship. Even the niggas that don't like to go
Speaker 1: by it. I ain't gonna stop me forgetting mine right.
Speaker 4: So you appreciate you believe in accountability, of course, sure
Speaker 4: it was one time when you had just man ever
Speaker 4: say man, I gotta be accountable for this ship Ship.
Speaker 5: Ship just I just had a fair case.
Speaker 1: I just fought and I was up against it.
Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying, My Cody and I had
Speaker 7: the whole accountability, Like should I was wrong, I was
Speaker 7: gonna end up taking the time so my Cody can
Speaker 7: get off, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But ship where it worked.
Speaker 7: I ended up getting the same thing as my co
Speaker 7: defending and got the probation.
Speaker 1: But should I was ready to go take the thirty
Speaker 1: three months because I was I was wrong, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: As in me being a feeling from California and me
Speaker 5: not knowing that.
Speaker 1: I wasn't supposed to be in a gun store, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: So by me not being by me not knowing, I'm
Speaker 5: thinking it's legal.
Speaker 1: I'm in Las Vegas.
Speaker 5: But they try to switch the narrative as I got
Speaker 5: my co defending buying.
Speaker 1: Guns for me.
Speaker 7: So I'm like, Okay, yeah, I'm wrong for being in
Speaker 7: a gun store by being a feeling, which I didn't know.
Speaker 5: Okay, oh kind of take that.
Speaker 6: But I'm not gonna let this nigga go down because
Speaker 6: of my.
Speaker 7: Ignorant Yeah, but you know, it just for one, it
Speaker 7: was just like this person had a gun license, this

Speaker 1: of shit.
Speaker 5: So I'm like, oh, I take the thirty three months,

Speaker 7: Ship like he watched a movie called Shane when he
Speaker 7: was a kid, and Shane carried a gun, but he
Speaker 7: was for his people, right, so that didn't make him

Speaker 9: We do seven days.
Speaker 1: How many years? Four? Yeah?
Speaker 9: So yeah, But it wasn't always a week like I
Speaker 9: started off with just like two three days, but now
Speaker 9: it's just got into a week. I just felt like
Speaker 9: the purpose of it is, you know, community empowerment, economical development,
Speaker 9: workforce flooding, and a lot of influxs of what we
Speaker 9: can do with our influence in the community.
Speaker 1: M hm.
Speaker 6: So, speaking of community empowerment, I was reading that you
Speaker 6: do like a lot of like annual events for like Thanksgiving, Christmas,
Speaker 6: like different holidays and stuff like that, but you also
Speaker 6: focused on two separate causes, which are cancer and domestic violence.
Speaker 6: You want to talk a little bit more about what
Speaker 6: you've been doing for those things.
Speaker 9: A lot of the things that we do in the
Speaker 9: community because it's never me, it's always weak. This year
Speaker 9: is our twentieth year of our annual Philanthic philanthropy accent
Speaker 9: in the community Philanthropic cancer. My mother died from cancer.
Speaker 9: My mother had a rare cancer. My mother had a
Speaker 9: cancer where it was like only like eight people I've
Speaker 9: ever had this cancer before. It's like super rare, like
Speaker 9: super duper rare. And it droves me closer to kind
Speaker 9: of interrogating and discovery of what it is and how
Speaker 9: we can go through preventive measures and trying to figure
Speaker 9: out and catch things before they happen, especially us, a
Speaker 9: lot of us. You know, some of the things that
Speaker 9: are hereditary, are our lifestyle, are eating habits and things
Speaker 9: of that nature, and so.
Speaker 1: We have to focus on that.
Speaker 9: And once informed, it's our job to give back, to
Speaker 9: teach and share. So that domestic of violence. My father
Speaker 9: would you know, be very useful with my mother.
Speaker 1: So a lot of the things that I do is
Speaker 1: is off my childhood.
Speaker 5: You witnessed you wanted to change it.
Speaker 9: Definitely, it's it's it's reverse engineering on childhood trauma.
Speaker 1: And you always always lived in Oakland.
Speaker 4: From forever for sure, Born and Rais would you ever
Speaker 4: consider would you move?
Speaker 1: You think.
Speaker 9: What I buy land and other countries, what I buy
Speaker 9: houses like we've already done, you know. Of course we've
Speaker 9: always had spots in a and you know, Vegas and
Speaker 9: things of that nature. But Oakland is home for me.
Speaker 9: And one of the reasons why it's home for me,
Speaker 9: I'm connected on different energies, on different levels. You know,
Speaker 9: I think this is my reset, you know, my my
Speaker 9: my reset. And when when life becomes you and I
Speaker 9: have confidential talks a lot, and when we when we
Speaker 9: when we do speak on what it is that we
Speaker 9: speak on. Those things are heavy to me and it's
Speaker 9: very important to me and I don't know if I
Speaker 9: could live life outside of being able to go to
Speaker 9: my reset spots. So so Oakland is Oakland is homely me.
Speaker 2: When I.
Speaker 6: So, let me ask you this, since Oakland is home
Speaker 6: two words mac Dre hyphe what do those mean to you?
Speaker 1: Dre was my big dog man.
Speaker 9: You know, I'm one of the last artists that Macdre
Speaker 9: actually uh physically signed to his label, and we were able,
Speaker 9: we signed up for.
Speaker 1: The adventure and shortly after he was he was murdered.
Speaker 9: And so I feel like it's my my obligation to
Speaker 9: continue to carry his legacy as.
Speaker 1: Well as curating my own right.
Speaker 9: But you know, I always represent from mac Dre as
Speaker 9: a major part of a demographical icon and and what
Speaker 9: he was able to do around the country abroad from
Speaker 9: someone from such a small area, how his influence was
Speaker 9: able to touch so many different people from all around
Speaker 9: the country, and you know, and being traveling to Europe
Speaker 9: and traveling around the world seeming his influence there. So uh,
Speaker 9: it will always be a part of me. And I'll
Speaker 9: always speak of him in high fashion.
Speaker 1: What type of influence shout play played on you?
Speaker 5: Though?
Speaker 9: That's my rap dad me too, Like for real, like
Speaker 9: me and short me and Shortest like like I call
Speaker 9: I call him pops, So I'll call him sometimes like
Speaker 9: that what you're doing? Like for real, Like that's our relationship.
Speaker 9: Like Shorts known me since I was eight years old,
Speaker 9: nine years old. My mom used to run a club
Speaker 9: right around the corner from here, and I was the kid,
Speaker 9: little shorty in the club. So Short would always be like, brother,
Speaker 9: what your young ass doing here?
Speaker 1: Man? Like you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 9: Why he always around all these old people? You got
Speaker 9: an old spirit. So I've been around him so long.
Speaker 9: And then and rap like I remember being the a
Speaker 9: back in the day, Like you know what I'm saying
Speaker 9: in the uh in the former life allegedly trapping out there,
Speaker 9: And I remember the record y'all did when you was first,
Speaker 9: when you was rapping. You know what I'm saying back
Speaker 9: in the day, you're sure Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 9: I remember that on your early record.

Speaker 9: know what I'm saying, Like a uh, that's a rap god.
Speaker 10: Man.
Speaker 1: And and and too Shortest one of those guys.
Speaker 9: When you dive into the dichotomy of everything that he's
Speaker 9: brought in as a music enthusiasts, you'll be like, damn,
Speaker 9: this dude then did everything. And I always love Short
Speaker 9: for always grabbing me in, embracing me and just showing
Speaker 9: me the love that he showed me.
Speaker 1: Man, and that's that's my dog.
Speaker 6: So how does it make you feel to see him
Speaker 6: at the Sundance Film Festival about to premiere and debut
Speaker 6: his movie Skiing on the Slopes.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 9: I love I love everything that's happening for him. I
Speaker 9: love I love the rest of the world.
Speaker 1: Getting a chance to experience, experience the short experience.
Speaker 9: You know, he's one of the when you hear the
Speaker 9: greatest storytellers ever and you hear the rappers talk about.
Speaker 1: You know, they'll name the slick Ricks and they'll name
Speaker 1: uh the ice Q.
Speaker 9: They'll name a lot of these rappers from different regions,
Speaker 9: and it's always troubling the meat and I always not
Speaker 9: hear his name mentioned as far as greater storytellers. This
Speaker 9: is a guy who had a song for seven minutes
Speaker 9: just talking about getting women.
Speaker 2: And you know, he.
Speaker 9: Was able to vividly depict what Oakland looked like for
Speaker 9: individuals that may have never ever stepped foot in California.
Speaker 9: And so you know, this is all through Rapp and
Speaker 9: the art of storytelling was something that he built his
Speaker 9: whole career off.
Speaker 1: And so to be able to.
Speaker 9: Hear his name mentioned nowadays in certain conversations. It's a
Speaker 9: relief for me because I'm just I'm happy to get
Speaker 9: a chance to witness him receive flowers.
Speaker 1: Right right, right, exactly exactly.
Speaker 4: Big Fast is the perfect place to pop your ship.
Speaker 4: We're gonna push you into pop on your ship. So
Speaker 4: the first thing I want to talk about is that
Speaker 4: ping game. A lot of people don't know their favorite
Speaker 4: records was written by this man right here the pub
Speaker 4: check's crazy.
Speaker 1: Talk about some of the records that you eat this
Speaker 1: road records.
Speaker 9: You know it's free man at this age, Man, I
Speaker 9: ain't the one to you know, what's the records?
Speaker 1: If you know, you know, you feel me.
Speaker 9: It's just it's a couple of records.
Speaker 1: Man, it's a few little records.
Speaker 9: I had a chance man in link in with a
Speaker 9: lot of people, man, a lot of network and a
Speaker 9: lot of records being wrote.
Speaker 4: That keeps some of them records. It is confidential. You
Speaker 4: can't speak on.
Speaker 9: Some records or compidential. Some records are just respect. Life
Speaker 9: of the parties Atlanta based record headband. Okay, you know, yeah.
Speaker 1: It's it's it's it's a lot of records, man, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying.
Speaker 9: It's cool, you know, what I'm saying, some regional, some
Speaker 9: you know, worldwide, some nationwide. But hey man, it's a
Speaker 9: passion and it's also another outlet for artists to realize
Speaker 9: that you don't just always have to be the front man.
Speaker 1: You can play the behind the scenes.
Speaker 9: And and uh, it'd be cool, man, it'd be cool
Speaker 9: to see sometimes, you know, the publishing checks come out
Speaker 9: the blue.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you be like damn as we're like, oh that
Speaker 1: was cool that I need.
Speaker 9: That, Like I'm saying, so yeah, man, it be it
Speaker 9: be lit though, Man, I enjoyed.
Speaker 4: It for and for and furthermore popular ship a little more.
Speaker 4: What about some of them businesses? We know you got dope,
Speaker 4: air restore.
Speaker 9: Clothing store, nightclub, a couple of nail shops, museum. We
Speaker 9: run a marketing company. We also have just ventured into
Speaker 9: of recently. As I was telling you, I run a
Speaker 9: program in a workshop called the Therapy, which has intertwined
Speaker 9: inside of the youth. We're getting a contract now and
Speaker 9: I just did a merger and acquisition with the Warriors.
Speaker 1: We did a partnership the Warriors and Kaiser being able to.
Speaker 9: Being able to serve black men in the mental health field,
Speaker 9: something that's rarely talked about or embraced. Some of us
Speaker 9: have issues with seeking the help that we actually need
Speaker 9: because of the stigmas of.
Speaker 1: Black men don't search the therapy.
Speaker 9: So breaking that stigma and the monotony on what receiving
Speaker 9: help looks like. And so we've created that that program,
Speaker 9: and these are just things of dealing with what we're doing,
Speaker 9: you know, in the community. So I'm terly looking focused
Speaker 9: on that in twenty twenty four, of diving more into
Speaker 9: that being able to help, because in that discovery, we'll
Speaker 9: realize that some individuals that we thought were crazy or
Speaker 9: that we thought was just always they actually just have
Speaker 9: functioning autism, and due to medical apartheid, they were never
Speaker 9: able to be properly diagnosed, so they grew up normalizing
Speaker 9: some atrocious things.
Speaker 1: And now we have to dive into that to be able.
Speaker 9: To show them, hey man, we're not calling you slow,
Speaker 9: we're not seeing you special needs. We're just trying to
Speaker 9: extract something from you to open it up and realize, damn,
Speaker 9: I did.
Speaker 1: Never I never knew that I was dealing with this.
Speaker 9: With some we'd be like, by crazy, dude had autism?
Speaker 1: Dude, had you know, a functioning.
Speaker 9: Autism where his parents was more embarrassed and to actually
Speaker 9: go get the necessary help that he needed, and they
Speaker 9: normalized it and allow him to grow up.
Speaker 1: Thinking that it was something else.
Speaker 4: Now self diagnosis, diagnosed, you self medicated, but now.
Speaker 9: You self medicaid and we all know that. You know,
Speaker 9: frustration and resentment are the parents of violence.
Speaker 8: What's some of the shits you got in the museum
Speaker 8: right now?
Speaker 1: There's just some tribute.
Speaker 9: I have a big a tribute to mc Hammer to me,
Speaker 9: which is the greatest man on Earth. It's a big
Speaker 9: Hammer is just the greatest guy on Earth. You got
Speaker 9: to think being a young poor kid growing up in
Speaker 9: the projects, seeing Hammer pull up in Ferraris and everything
Speaker 9: drive through, that was.
Speaker 1: What for sure? You got that.
Speaker 9: Like people play with Hammer outside of it, like they
Speaker 9: play games, but they will never play with him, Like
Speaker 9: they never played with him. They could talk it all
Speaker 9: of what they never played with him. Hammer old school
Speaker 9: jump out was handing what you say, run that right now?
Speaker 4: It's like I'm just saying, I want to know, let's
Speaker 4: go regular nigga right now.
Speaker 1: Behind We're gonna get him. You even gonna stop talking.
Speaker 4: We canna get him dancing that nigga beat your ass.
Speaker 9: And his family was with all the activities, like I'm
Speaker 9: talking about every activity you could think of his brother
Speaker 9: and then was with like like not playing.
Speaker 1: You think you're gonna talk to us at some point, Hamal,
Speaker 1: don't do no interviews, Dawn.
Speaker 9: He's so I used to think that it was over
Speaker 9: protective of his story, but now he's just valuing what
Speaker 9: he is. He said some stuff the other day at
Speaker 9: the Tupac revealing. They gave Tupac a street name, the
Speaker 9: street after Tupac, and he was like, I'm sixty years old.
Speaker 9: I'm not playing games with none of these artists. I'm
Speaker 9: not going to go to these parties to fake mingle.
Speaker 9: Y'all hated me my whole life, my whole career. Y'all
Speaker 9: try to make a mockery of everything that I've done,
Speaker 9: laughed at. But now y'all want me to come be
Speaker 9: a part of y'all celebrations and all of that.
Speaker 1: I'm not doing it.
Speaker 4: But I think it's a lesson to be learned in
Speaker 4: I don't know if the specifically it's a lesson to
Speaker 4: be learned from him financially having that product, that money.
Speaker 9: But the money that he fucked off is something that
Speaker 9: what we have to be educated on because when we
Speaker 9: think bankrupt in that time and when hip hop was
Speaker 9: stated in how people use it in context, we all
Speaker 9: thought that he just went broke, when in actuality, Donald
Speaker 9: Trump has filed bankrupt over so many of these people
Speaker 9: that have understanding ofinancial literacy. They understand that these chapter eleven,
Speaker 9: chapter thirteen thouars for bankruptcy will make you say mc
Speaker 9: hammy don't have no money, Stanley moreal, dude, So his
Speaker 9: bankruptcy wasn't you on eyes or paying hers? So yeah,
Speaker 9: I may not have fifty million no more, but despite
Speaker 9: ten million, I'm still good with you. You've never seen
Speaker 9: him see Hammer on a Southwest flight. Ain't never seen
Speaker 9: him flying in regularly? Like what I'm saying, like Hammery,
Speaker 9: Like Hammery. People forget Hammer was actually a guinea pig.
Speaker 1: No, he was a guinea pig for the tech world.
Speaker 9: And what I mean by that is he was the
Speaker 9: first one to dibble and dabble in Twitter. He was
Speaker 9: Google to find out the analytics of how those things work,
Speaker 9: and in those partnerships, he was able to receive percentages
Speaker 9: from these high tech companies. So a lot of people
Speaker 9: don't know about that side of the money that him, Like,
Speaker 9: Hammer is that.
Speaker 6: Dude, But I feel like not a coach will I
Speaker 6: feel like in terms of I felt like in terms
Speaker 6: of financial literacy and learning what to do and what
Speaker 6: not to do with your money. I'm probably gonna catch
Speaker 6: a lot of flat for this, but I feel like
Speaker 6: the mc hammer of this world walked so the Fat
Speaker 6: Joe could fly because Fat Joe fucked up his money
Speaker 6: on his on his niggas too.
Speaker 9: A lot of a lot of people do that, yeah,
Speaker 9: him and him like listen, commercial hammerin no money problems.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but he blew through that ship on these niggas.
Speaker 1: But to be able. But but and this was this
Speaker 1: was his question.
Speaker 9: And then I'm gonna get back to the originally answer
Speaker 9: and what's in the museum?
Speaker 1: Uh? What Hammer said? Something real?
Speaker 9: He said, it's okay for people to rap about killing, destroying, destruction,
Speaker 9: polluting our communities and they become praised. He say, but
Speaker 9: people look at me and say, you took two hundred
Speaker 9: people on tour and wasted your money and blew your money.
Speaker 9: He said, what about these two hundred people who lives?
Speaker 9: I'll change who I got a chance to go see
Speaker 9: the world. Who I got a chance to get away
Speaker 9: from the negativity that was going on here in Oapen, California.
Speaker 9: These lines that I changed, are we equating money and
Speaker 9: changing lines?
Speaker 1: He said, I would do it again any.
Speaker 9: Day because I can always make money, I can't always
Speaker 9: save these lines. So his sacrifice, if that was his sacrifice,
Speaker 9: the twenty thirty forty fifty million whatever he blew, he
Speaker 9: didn't care about that.
Speaker 6: But see, I, like you said, I guess that's a
Speaker 6: part of the misconception because like people like me and
Speaker 6: other people that don't know that, Okay, even though he
Speaker 6: found bankruptcy, but he didn't go broke or thinking like, Okay,
Speaker 6: he blew his money and he fucked up. Now he's
Speaker 6: living on the street because he tried to take care.
Speaker 1: Of these ns.
Speaker 6: That's what That's how they tried to paint the picture
Speaker 6: like in the media of him going broke and him
Speaker 6: fucking up that money.
Speaker 9: Because you gotta think, the further that we become informed
Speaker 9: and educated, Yeah, the further they would push information back,
Speaker 9: right as if they said in hitting Characters when she
Speaker 9: said the closer way we get to the finish line,
Speaker 9: the further, they put it back, so in understanding that.
Speaker 1: We have to learn that. Okay, let me learn from Hamburg.
Speaker 9: But as you said, he sat down a great baseline
Speaker 9: on what we could study from and in that blueprint.
Speaker 9: So now as we stand on the precipice of receiving
Speaker 9: these funds and everything that people do, now we can
Speaker 9: educate ourselves and say, oh, I ain't finna blow it
Speaker 9: like that. I'm gonna get a little bit more frugal.
Speaker 9: But if you ask him, he said, man, I'll do
Speaker 9: it again. This is one thing that he told me.
Speaker 1: He said.
Speaker 9: The only thing that I would change is I wouldn't
Speaker 9: believe as many stories.
Speaker 1: And he would be like, people would.
Speaker 9: Come up to me and be like, yo, man, my
Speaker 9: daughter a finna get kicked out of college. Man, I
Speaker 9: need twenty thousand making year. He's like, man, give it
Speaker 9: to her. He said, somebody, come on, man, mind he
Speaker 9: got cancer. Man, we're trying to get some help with
Speaker 9: the research. He said, I wouldn't believe as many stories.
Speaker 9: And one thing that he told me is you have
Speaker 9: to know your know meaning k n O w n O.
Speaker 9: To know your know you, I'm said, and once you know,
Speaker 9: you'll know you can learn to tell people, nah, we
Speaker 9: ain't on that.
Speaker 1: I'm cool off a so. But Hammer is the greatest
Speaker 1: guy on earth. Man. I love that dude. I love
Speaker 1: his heart.
Speaker 9: He's a He's just a great man man. And so
Speaker 9: I have a big a tribute to him in there.
Speaker 9: Of course, I have a big a painting of too
Speaker 9: Short and Huey Newton, which is you know, to me,
Speaker 9: those are like kind of like the dynamics of who
Speaker 9: I'm built in a mixture of I'm a mixture of
Speaker 9: Hughey Newton, MC Hammer and too Short. And that's Oakland,
Speaker 9: if you you know, if you if you understand what
Speaker 9: Oakland is. And the site is all activated by augmented reality,
Speaker 9: this new technology where we have these things created by
Speaker 9: a black man, uh where when you put this certain
Speaker 9: app to the pictures, all of the pictures come to
Speaker 9: life in the museum.
Speaker 1: So it's actually the first it's hard. It's actually the first.
Speaker 9: Figital which is physically physical and digital museum to where
Speaker 9: now we have a physical where you can touch it,
Speaker 9: but digitized through the augmented reality. So as we release
Speaker 9: that in the March, we're going to open up those things.
Speaker 1: Man. And it's a great experience.
Speaker 9: You had to say, so to change one thing in
Speaker 9: Oakland world, would it be the abandonment of the youth.
Speaker 9: Sometimes we often talk about how the youth are crazy
Speaker 9: and the youth have run wild.
Speaker 1: And this is not just in Oakland. This is in Atlanta.
Speaker 9: This is in Baltimore, Detroit and all of the inner
Speaker 9: cities where people have to understand they have this thing
Speaker 9: out here called bipping, and bipping is in the breaking windows.
Speaker 1: Talking about it.
Speaker 9: It's big about bipping, right, And me and a friend
Speaker 9: of mine, an elder guy, we talked about. He was like, man,
Speaker 9: these young dudes is crazy. Man, They're out here breaking windows.
Speaker 9: And I stopped them at that moment. I said, can
Speaker 9: I ask you a question? And I was like, y'all
Speaker 9: so cracked, y'all so cracked to our mamas, y'all so
Speaker 9: cracked to our grandmamas, y'all so cracked to everybody in
Speaker 9: our generation, our aunties and everything.
Speaker 1: Y'all broke up.
Speaker 9: Families are broken windows worse than breaking broken families.
Speaker 1: So so you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 9: So we're talking about a secondary issue and ignoring the
Speaker 9: primary issue. The primary issue is this is conditioned from
Speaker 9: the things that they've done.
Speaker 1: So now, if the.
Speaker 9: Generation before us don't want to take accountability and the
Speaker 9: young generation is lost in abandoned, of course they run wild.
Speaker 9: They begin to survive when the water boys out there
Speaker 9: in Atlanta selling waters and.
Speaker 1: Doing what they doing. They hustling.
Speaker 9: But if y'all not buying them waters, then they start riving.
Speaker 9: The question is, man, these dudes out here riving, I
Speaker 9: don't want to stop. Well, we ain't nobody supporting them,
Speaker 9: Ain't nobody giving them nothing to eat. You leave a
Speaker 9: kid in the jungle, and you say, well, do what
Speaker 9: you gotta do.
Speaker 1: Well, man, I'm finna survive. So I got to.
Speaker 9: If I got to kill this rhinoceros, this girabbe, this zebra, this,
Speaker 9: I got to do whatever I do, and I might
Speaker 9: eat a poisonous fraw, I might get bit by a
Speaker 9: poisonous snake.
Speaker 1: But since you've abandoned me.
Speaker 9: In this jungle, don't don't have no comments about what
Speaker 9: I'm doing to survive because you don't care. So you
Speaker 9: can pretend to care, but you can't pretend to show up.
Speaker 9: And a lot of people out here is pretending to care.
Speaker 9: But they abandoned in these children. That's why when you
Speaker 9: ask me in the aforementioned how do I feel about Oakland?
Speaker 9: I can't leave Oakland just based off the fact of
Speaker 9: I care. I care too much. Maybe that might be
Speaker 9: my sickness. But if that's my sacrifice.
Speaker 1: This so be it. I feel shit for real, This shit.
Speaker 9: Nig gotta get back to Karen bro I get back
Speaker 9: to pouring in a lot of niggas taking out. We
Speaker 9: make so much money from rap, from hustling, from tramping,
Speaker 9: whatever it is, and we selfish, we self centered, we
Speaker 9: self center. Last year fad Week I spent about two
Speaker 9: hundred three hundred thousand dollars, but it was more so
Speaker 9: just so some folks could have something to do. This
Speaker 9: year I spent about one hundred and fifty thousand just
Speaker 9: to be able to say, Yo, won't y'all have.
Speaker 1: Something to do?
Speaker 9: Come on, y'all want to come somewhere, y'all want to
Speaker 9: come chill. Let's get away from it for a SECONDA
Speaker 9: And to me, that's the care. The money ain't the problem.
Speaker 9: I can always make money. I never had a problem
Speaker 9: making money.
Speaker 2: We solve.
Speaker 1: Let's just never had a problem making money.
Speaker 9: Ever, I'm talking about selling baseball cards, selling clothes, selling shoes,
Speaker 9: selling hund selling weed.
Speaker 1: Self whatever.
Speaker 9: I never had a problem making money. I can always
Speaker 9: make the money back. But nobody have the good memories
Speaker 9: to talk about. They gon'n talk about the stuff that
Speaker 9: we didn't did for years from.
Speaker 1: Now for real. Wow, that's real, bro, We'll talk though, man.
Speaker 9: Other than that that, man, I just want to say,
Speaker 9: take a second to thank y'all for coming out here
Speaker 9: just based My main thing was, like I said, I
Speaker 9: just wanted y'all man, just come on out. I don't
Speaker 9: expect nothing from y'all, but just y'all appearance and y'all
Speaker 9: just to be able to say, Man, y'all got a
Speaker 9: chance to come out, show some hospitality whatever y'all.
Speaker 1: May have needed.
Speaker 9: You know, you on ice cream. We've been rocking for
Speaker 9: a long time. And uh and black what you represent,
Speaker 9: man for the culture of you represent transition, Thank you
Speaker 9: and transformation for individual to say, man, look what I'm doing.
Speaker 9: Look what I went from being a dope boy, belly temmy, hustling, grinding, won't, won't,
Speaker 9: grilled up, won't y'all know what it is when y'all
Speaker 9: come to Atlanta, it's on me like the character that
Speaker 9: was depicted in Snow.
Speaker 1: Patrol was actually the lifestyle that you had lived. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I'm just saying allegedly, allegedly. You get what I'm saying.
Speaker 9: But to see you now, to see you getting your
Speaker 9: run and getting your job on, losing weight, physical fitness,
Speaker 9: getting the grill out of your mouth, taking that's transition
Speaker 9: to transformation fast, and us as hustlers that come from
Speaker 9: the street, we need to see that.
Speaker 1: After it is possible to tell us to get money.
Speaker 1: John Teller never tell us what to do with it.
Speaker 1: So we blow it.
Speaker 9: We spent it on cars, drugs, girls, whatever it is.
Speaker 1: We blow it. But now here's the after step of trapping.
Speaker 1: It's still in me. It's just in me.
Speaker 8: On another way, Yeah, yeah, I know there's a lot
Speaker 8: of mother got that wants some pay back from way
Speaker 8: back to so it's still it's still in me.
Speaker 1: So we watch it like I said, you know, just like.
Speaker 9: And I tell all my people, no matter how big
Speaker 9: you get, never be naive to what somebody else don't have.
Speaker 9: In fact, I said it a long time ago, never
Speaker 9: be blind to a broken man's dream. So you see me,
Speaker 9: I'm like, that's time that's the top time my moment.
Speaker 9: I told you that's what it was. You told me
Speaker 9: that's what it is. That's the top of time, my mom.
Speaker 8: You know, I felt like I may want to get
Speaker 8: some eat before I saw you, so I got that again.
Speaker 9: What I'm saying though, but that's what time the time,
Speaker 9: because I under that's just a trapper alliance exactly. And
Speaker 9: no matter how like like like OH said, man, I'm up,
Speaker 9: but I still can't cut behind the world times.
Speaker 1: That's what that is, right, I ain't gonna have foolish
Speaker 1: I know. The next time you're in the city, I
Speaker 1: gotta come to the A.
Speaker 9: At the end of next month, we're doing some stuff,
Speaker 9: me and Jazzy uh doing some some writing stuff, man,
Speaker 9: and I'm gonna come out here and dribble and.
Speaker 8: We gotta get out there and get a full episode
Speaker 8: that man.
Speaker 1: Come on, man for real.
Speaker 9: And like I said, while y'all time here, man, I
Speaker 9: want you to come to the you know, basketball game
Speaker 9: and just chill.
Speaker 1: This was like some real, just subtle things.
Speaker 9: I was just trying to fill up the schedule and
Speaker 9: I was like, man, let me put some let me
Speaker 9: let me let me.
Speaker 1: Give y'all a free little couple of day vacation. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. I got some risks.
Speaker 8: I've been working your last yesterday.
Speaker 1: And I wanted to just introduce y'all to some folks
Speaker 1: that's in our area. Man.
Speaker 9: So if it's just some little spot, even if it's
Speaker 9: just shaking hands, it's a lot of talented artists here.
Speaker 1: Man. Man, it's some uh, some poles in the room
Speaker 1: right now. You gotta you got Pedro who he's he's
Speaker 1: with FOD.
Speaker 9: But this dude is like, this dude is I did
Speaker 9: a fashion show the other night.
Speaker 1: This dude designed the clothes and a.
Speaker 9: Fashion show he performed. He's producer, he's a poet. He's
Speaker 9: a young dude that really exemplifies what it's like trying
Speaker 9: to make it out of the struggle.
Speaker 1: You got so vicious, you got a course.
Speaker 9: You know, we don't we know the Larry Jones, we
Speaker 9: know the we know the Camayas, but you got the
Speaker 9: just Bangs.
Speaker 1: You got, you know the tds, the Padrees.
Speaker 9: It's some young dudes out here that's really working their
Speaker 9: ass off and they just.
Speaker 1: Need to have that lens on them. You know.
Speaker 9: Unfortunately, as we talked about with you, and Field was
Speaker 9: talking about it's no outlets like that. It's like all
Speaker 9: it is is Gotti and Gazi hands is so full.
Speaker 9: He can't be hands on with everybody like he wants was,
Speaker 9: so it's hard for him to touch the young dudes.
Speaker 9: And now he has like penny Stocks with Empire, and
Speaker 9: what I mean by that is let me just go
Speaker 9: grab hell of artists and just put y'all stuff out
Speaker 9: and you make money off that.
Speaker 1: But it ain't like he can't touch everybody when he
Speaker 1: was first starting it.
Speaker 9: So sometimes you'll get stranded on the island as an artist,
Speaker 9: and then there's nobody educating these like people on.
Speaker 1: How to put music out.
Speaker 9: So you see these kids with abundance of talent and
Speaker 9: they just don't know to know how, and people be
Speaker 9: so frustrated with teaching they get mad at you.
Speaker 1: I'm like, nigga, you don't know how to upload. No,
Speaker 1: I don't niggas educate me teaching.
Speaker 9: So we just got to create those outlets, man. But
Speaker 9: it's so much talent in the Bay like I'm talking about.
Speaker 9: You know, the Bay is sectioned off like New York
Speaker 9: and Borough, so Richmond, Berkeley, Valeo, Oakland stocked in.
Speaker 1: Heywark, We'll stocking us a little bit further.
Speaker 9: But all up in there stocking like the hottest right
Speaker 9: now on the EBK crew, they got the hottest shit
Speaker 9: in Northern California right now stocked in sacking. It's just
Speaker 9: a lot of talent, man, and I wish that I
Speaker 9: could bring all of them to y'all. And since I can't,
Speaker 9: I wanted to bring y'all here and open up the floodgates.
Speaker 1: If they show, they show, if they.
Speaker 8: Don't, And who you think the next person is coming out?
Speaker 8: Like bloody right on the right, on the what you
Speaker 8: got when.
Speaker 9: On the press office, right on the on the runway
Speaker 9: on the faraway. I like dB by the Bag he's
Speaker 9: from Sacramento. I like, uh, who else? I like it's
Speaker 9: a It's an R and B artist that I've been
Speaker 9: working with named Derrick Neely. I'm talking about this dude,
Speaker 9: like like if Chris Brown decided to retire, he could
Speaker 9: he could be like all right, I'm here. He's super dope,
Speaker 9: talented field, got a whole crew. His whole FOD crew
Speaker 9: is crazy. They work in their ass off where I'm
Speaker 9: from Norfolkland. Man, All my young dudes like I'm from
Speaker 9: the smallest side of Oakland. So all my young dudes
Speaker 9: they hungry and they just feel like nigga niggas don't
Speaker 9: fuck with us, like we're from up we from were
Speaker 9: from the isolated side of Oakland, like we're from the
Speaker 9: smallest side. So all my young dudes got like chips
Speaker 9: on their shoulder because they feel like the rest of
Speaker 9: the city don't rock with them like that.
Speaker 1: But but it's love.
Speaker 9: But it's a dude named Fredro Baggs out here right now.
Speaker 9: He's like he a fool, He a fool with it.
Speaker 9: He from East Oakland. He he the voice of the
Speaker 9: youngsters like he are. But the only thing that break
Speaker 9: us up out here is the gang banging. The gang banging,
Speaker 9: it mess our culture up a little bit. Man, So
Speaker 9: if the brothers could come together, you got the trill youngest.
Speaker 9: These dudes are some of the most talented young dudes,
Speaker 9: but a lot of people be intimidated about their movement.
Speaker 9: So it's a lot of talented dudes like man, I
Speaker 9: hate naming some without naming the others because I feel
Speaker 9: like I might have missed out or left out on
Speaker 9: some people. But all through Oakland, North East West.
Speaker 1: It's talent, man. We just got to be able to
Speaker 1: grab the same in Atlanta, same everywhere else.
Speaker 9: Somebody just got to put the limbs on them.
Speaker 4: One more quick question to what you know if you
Speaker 4: you can watch certain movies and they'll depict street life
Speaker 4: in l A, New York, Atlanta, is there that movie
Speaker 4: for the bait? Or if not, why hasn't anybody ever
Speaker 4: made a movie about the bait?
Speaker 1: Like you know, what's so crazy?
Speaker 9: Me and Glasses had a conversation the other day, Right,
Speaker 9: where's he been? G La been on this? You've been
Speaker 9: on this hustle them? Yeah, he's just on that. He
Speaker 9: been grinding.
Speaker 1: I'm fun with Hall all right, like paus.
Speaker 9: If that's what needed, I don't know, but.
Speaker 1: But gee, I'm my dog though, like you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And he was talking.
Speaker 9: He tried to tell me that Minister Society was a
Speaker 9: bay movie, right, let me give you, let me give you,
Speaker 9: let me give you his I said it wasn't, so
Speaker 9: I'm in agreeance with you.
Speaker 1: But after further how laying at him, I was like, okay,
Speaker 1: come on with so.
Speaker 9: Of course you had short you had a lot of
Speaker 9: bay cats in that movie, as short, you have who man,
Speaker 9: you had some of the directors that a lot of
Speaker 9: Bay Area based stuff, right, the soundtrack you had some
Speaker 9: bay Airy music on it.
Speaker 1: He said, how is this movie in l A? In
Speaker 1: Grave Street? None of them were wearing purple. Ain't no rags.
Speaker 9: Nobody is saying blood or cus. He like, He's like,
Speaker 9: nobody is saying none of that. He was like, and
Speaker 9: all of the main characters was like, can start selling dope?
Speaker 1: He got his dough from an Oakland nigga?
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, he say, right, the war kicked off when
Speaker 9: his cousin got killed.
Speaker 1: His cousin was an Oakland nigga. Yeah, like you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying.
Speaker 8: He was like, by what you're saying, Chauncey was uh,
Speaker 8: Chauncey got you feel me?
Speaker 1: Like when when they sitting up there watching the movie,
Speaker 1: He's like, younger, fun, what're talking about? Nigga?
Speaker 9: This looked like came with your ass. That's an Oakland nigga.
Speaker 9: I was poor man, aggravating.
Speaker 1: Intensifying.
Speaker 2: In l A.
Speaker 9: So this what he this what he was saying, though,
Speaker 9: he was like, nigga, how was this the l A movie?
Speaker 1: Nigga? Ain't in this the nineties.
Speaker 6: So basically he's saying that Oakland was robbed.
Speaker 1: He was saying it was Oakland based.
Speaker 4: Me.
Speaker 9: It was like it was La gang culture, but the
Speaker 9: theme of it was Aukland because in the nineties, it's
Speaker 9: no gang association.
Speaker 1: Like Nigga, Oh Dog, the hardest young nigga out there.
Speaker 1: He ain't got a rag on, he ain't banged one.
Speaker 9: Time, he ain't seen king, what's up cut, He ain't
Speaker 9: banged one time.
Speaker 1: Just nigga, the wildest young nigga. He don't got a.
Speaker 9: Gun talking about nigga, this crip, this great street Nigga.
Speaker 9: Great Streets was extra back then, and so Short Short.
Speaker 1: Was like nigga.
Speaker 9: Short was like nigga, I don't know what the fuck
Speaker 9: glasses talking about nigga him.
Speaker 1: Niggas was gag banging hard offs the set.
Speaker 9: He was like on the set, niggas three hundred, great
Speaker 9: street Niggas, purple everything. But then when you look at it,
Speaker 9: you look like, this can't be La. Ain't no gang
Speaker 9: banging representation. There's no blue rags, no red rags, no
Speaker 9: purple rags, no nothing.
Speaker 1: It's a clean cut version of it. And I say, oh,
Speaker 1: that's crazy.
Speaker 9: But to answer your question, I think because directors have
Speaker 9: not been tapped into the energy of debate for so long.
Speaker 9: Most of the most of the directors are LA based,
Speaker 9: or they come from other areas and go to LA.
Speaker 9: But I think with the resurgence and the emergence of
Speaker 9: some of these directors such as Ryan Coogler who's from
Speaker 9: Oakland and shout out to Richmond, Richmond tis as well.
Speaker 9: But this is my childhood friend. Like me and him
Speaker 9: grew up right down the street from each other. So
Speaker 9: Ryan Cooger, with the sex success of Black Panther and
Speaker 9: things of that nature, now him having the independence to
Speaker 9: do what he wants to do, I look to.
Speaker 1: See a movie from him about this culture.
Speaker 9: You have Deon Taylor who's from Sacramento, who's been scoring
Speaker 9: real big on like these films, independent films and things
Speaker 9: of that nature.
Speaker 1: So I'm hoping that I'm hoping that maybe.
Speaker 9: A film about what we are doing here that can
Speaker 9: depict Okay, you know what I'm saying. There's one called Licks,
Speaker 9: and it didn't really have the push behind it, but
Speaker 9: it's a it's a great movie, it's a great storyline,
Speaker 9: it shot extremely well, and uh, hopefully man you know,
Speaker 9: hopefully we can get behind it. And then with two
Speaker 9: B and stuff like Murder the Detroit guys that just
Speaker 9: showed us that ship, you could do it.
Speaker 1: You could do it, like.
Speaker 9: Like you know what I'm saying, murder, they killing murder,
Speaker 9: they killing it. So you know what I'm saying, big shop,
Speaker 9: I've been on murder paint line, Like, what's up.
Speaker 1: Bro, let's shoot one.
Speaker 9: I'll pay you come out here to shoot the movie
Speaker 9: for the Bay whatever what you.
Speaker 1: Want y'out it.
Speaker 9: Version I'm about it is from the Bay's Richmond, he
Speaker 9: from he from New Orleans, but he came out here
Speaker 9: and I was like, you feel.
Speaker 1: P tell you pe and tell you man. I got
Speaker 1: a lot of game.
Speaker 9: But but but, like you said, one of those versions
Speaker 9: where I don't got it might not be the greatest.
Speaker 9: Oh but it's a good story line and you can
Speaker 9: catch we all crazy ass.
Speaker 8: But even on on what's the Rick Ross story?
Speaker 1: What's the name of the movie Snowball? They had to
Speaker 1: come to the Bay to right to learn how to
Speaker 1: sell crap? Yeah, like they could the crap.
Speaker 9: And that's a true story. Like you know, so crazy
Speaker 9: about the Rick Ross ship. Man, like me and me
Speaker 9: and Uncle Vicky was sitting up talking. He'sa like, bro,
Speaker 9: I sat down with the dude, and dude months later
Speaker 9: came and ran with my whole story. He was like
Speaker 9: it was crazy me.
Speaker 1: And they just they who did it?
Speaker 9: John Singleton, He's like bro, sat down with him, told
Speaker 9: him my whole story.
Speaker 1: They come out with Snowfall. That's the real Rick Ross story.
Speaker 9: But the story in it is like Ross and our homie,
Speaker 9: little d Daryl Red, which I wish he was here
Speaker 9: today because I would love for y'all to highlight at him.
Speaker 1: Daryl Reed is like he's our He's like our big
Speaker 1: meach are said.
Speaker 9: And me and no form of fashion? Am I trying
Speaker 9: to glorify drug selling?
Speaker 1: In my mind? I was more so amazed that his ability.
Speaker 9: To run a company seventeen eighteen years old, organizing and
Speaker 9: galvanizing multi million dollar machine as a young kid, right,
Speaker 9: And that was marveling to me, Like that was I
Speaker 9: was marveled by that. I was like, wow, how just
Speaker 9: sitting back reading this story like this nigga was nineteen Yeah,
Speaker 9: went to jail for twenty eight years, didn't tell on nobody.
Speaker 9: Stay Solid's granted clemency Byball twenty eight years, twenty eight years,
Speaker 9: came home and got back to it. He back to
Speaker 9: the bag legally this time. Amazing, humbling story. But unfortunately
Speaker 9: Hollywood don't depict the stories of individuals that never told
Speaker 9: and stay solid.
Speaker 1: It always weird.
Speaker 9: They always want to steer the young hustlers a different way, like, oh,
Speaker 9: the only way you get a movie is if you
Speaker 9: tell or if you did some faulty snake game.
Speaker 1: So you know what I'm saying, we probably won't see
Speaker 1: a movie from him.
Speaker 9: He stay solid, He always get a movie to the
Speaker 9: folks that you know plagued the game, because that's the
Speaker 9: message that they want to use to you.

Speaker 4: you got a very compelling and interesting story. Let let
Speaker 4: learn a little bit about your story and your history.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and give us the big facts.
Speaker 10: Well, you know, before I transition into the person I
Speaker 10: am now, you know, I like in twenty years running
Speaker 10: out of.
Speaker 2: Jail using drugs.
Speaker 1: I don't go drugs real bad.
Speaker 10: You know, like any motherfucker that's out there getting out,
Speaker 10: you know, you be lost, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 10: So I didn't really have identity of who I am
Speaker 10: and what I wanted to do in life.
Speaker 2: And that's kind of.
Speaker 10: Like been my struggle. It was like my struggle, you know,
Speaker 10: a lot of people be in them situations and they
Speaker 10: want to get out. They just don't know how to
Speaker 10: figure their way out.
Speaker 2: So how did you do that? I think I just
Speaker 2: I just.
Speaker 10: Figure out that I need to start loving myself, as
Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying, mean like not I come
Speaker 10: from like you know, my mother and father use drugs,
Speaker 10: so and then.
Speaker 2: So it's almost like hereditary, yes.
Speaker 10: Like and then you know and then if you know
Speaker 10: it's it's it's some periods they use drugs that still
Speaker 10: tend to their kids.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 10: I kind of like start taking care of myself at twelve,
Speaker 10: So it's like anything I kind of like knew about life,
Speaker 10: I learned through my own.
Speaker 2: So it's like I've always been like a survivor. I
Speaker 2: already don't know how to live. I'm still kind of
Speaker 2: like that today.
Speaker 10: You feel me, right, A lot of people don't understand,
Speaker 10: like you know, they they run from their problems instead
Speaker 10: of addressing them. So when I just got to the
Speaker 10: point where I was like, man, I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 10: start trying to be responsible enough to address the issues
Speaker 10: that I'm going through. And that take a lot because
Speaker 10: now you got to go inside of yourself and it's
Speaker 10: starting admitting certain stuff to yourself that you might not
Speaker 10: want to admit, right, you know what I'm saying. And
Speaker 10: I just wasn't when you wasn't really probably loved as
Speaker 10: a kid, you don't.
Speaker 2: It stops you.
Speaker 10: From learning how to love yourself, and it may also
Speaker 10: start you from learning how to receive levet from other people.
Speaker 10: Other you know what I'm saying. You If some get
Speaker 10: to that point, now you got to be responsible for it,
Speaker 10: you run from it. So I just got to the
Speaker 10: point where I just started loving myself and wanting to
Speaker 10: be responsible for who I am because I always knew
Speaker 10: I had something special about me, but I just didn't
Speaker 10: know what it was. So in the process of me
Speaker 10: digging inside of me with that shovel like throwing shit
Speaker 10: to the left that don't believe it and holding on
Speaker 10: to the ship that that's supposed to be.
Speaker 2: There, I kind of like found out who I was.
Speaker 10: And once I did that, it was like the world
Speaker 10: just kind of opened up, you know, And then I
Speaker 10: just kind of like use my story to try to
Speaker 10: be like motivation to other people, Like like if you
Speaker 10: change your life and you stay dedicated to what it
Speaker 10: is that you're trying to do, you will see life
Speaker 10: in it like seeing life, seeing life from the lenses
Speaker 10: of an attic and seeing life.
Speaker 2: From the listens of from the listens of a survivor.
Speaker 2: From that, it's two different looks at life. You know
Speaker 2: what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: It's like the disconnect you between the ogs and the
Speaker 1: young needs.
Speaker 10: That the ogs don't want to be responsible for the
Speaker 10: fact that they created who the young nigga is.
Speaker 1: The hardest and the harder one on heard them facts?
Speaker 2: You feel me? So I functioned my like my, my, my, my.
Speaker 1: I fuck with the.
Speaker 10: Females and the young niggas, the niggas my age. I
Speaker 10: represent for us, but I don't fuck with us like that.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Because you, to them, you're
Speaker 2: gonna be competition. Anything you do gonna always be the competition.
Speaker 10: If you function right with the young niggas, if you
Speaker 10: outside with them, if you ain't trying to tell them
Speaker 10: what to do with you more so trying to show
Speaker 10: them what to do and how to do it and
Speaker 10: how to do it. You uplifting them when you see
Speaker 10: you and you're doing good, when you're ready to make
Speaker 10: a change.
Speaker 2: Men, how that me.
Speaker 10: I might not have your blueprint, but I have a
Speaker 10: blueprint to point you in that direction.
Speaker 2: Everybody. Yeah, the other ogs want to point out what
Speaker 2: they do wrong. You feel me.
Speaker 10: Instead of a nigga, you use the product of what
Speaker 10: they're doing wrong. You like the new You know how
Speaker 10: generational have different crimes.
Speaker 2: Niggas wasn't doing this like that.
Speaker 10: So the niggas wasn't breaking windows when I was with
Speaker 10: your nigga, But niggas is breaking windows now, were breaking
Speaker 10: live We.
Speaker 2: Just destroyed homes. We can't do.
Speaker 10: A broken window don't compare to nothing what we did
Speaker 10: to our community. But you feel me, and we put
Speaker 10: them in positions to where they breaking windows because nigga,
Speaker 10: their parents ain't doing that for him. So instead of
Speaker 10: trying to understand their struggle, you're trying to first you're
Speaker 10: trying to tell them how to change it when ill
Speaker 10: and not teaching them how to eat.
Speaker 2: So that's gonna already gonna you already.
Speaker 10: Any time you got something to say something to them about,
Speaker 10: it's always negative. So but you want the motherfucker to
Speaker 10: respect you, it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 6: It's like you can't tell somebody to stop doing something
Speaker 6: without giving them an alternative.
Speaker 8: Or something like the stop stop breaking nigge calls and
Speaker 8: I'm getting filed home the week all this shit.
Speaker 10: They five thousand, like they be scoring, Like to us,
Speaker 10: we look at it, that nigga just broke a window. Now,
Speaker 10: if you outside, you'd be like that nigga. These niggas
Speaker 10: score for eighty thousand. He'd be like, what, I'm going
Speaker 10: to break the window?
Speaker 2: You feel me like, but you just think you just
Speaker 2: take a nigga breaking the window.
Speaker 1: Where it is.
Speaker 2: It's like, you know, Oakland is like Grand Theft Foto.
Speaker 2: You feel me. It's like that's how they treat it.
Speaker 2: But they but it's.
Speaker 10: Only a reflection of us, you feel me, because if
Speaker 10: we would have been more responsible and more mindful for
Speaker 10: our actions and better leaders, they wouldn't be going that route.
Speaker 10: They lead each other, five young niggas together, They all
Speaker 10: making their decisions for each other because they don't got
Speaker 10: no big homie telling them them what they're doing.
Speaker 1: Is right or wrong.
Speaker 10: Yeah, you feel me, So if you think it, I'm
Speaker 10: alright with it.
Speaker 2: If he think I'm alright with it.
Speaker 10: They raising each other in one circle because at the
Speaker 10: end of the day, that's the all they got is
Speaker 10: each other.
Speaker 4: What you think the biggest you spoke of like addiction
Speaker 4: and agetting past that and just making change. What you
Speaker 4: think the biggest seeds is you got a plant to
Speaker 4: actually really change something, a habit or whatever it may be.
Speaker 10: So I think, really, you got to get to the
Speaker 10: point of being tired, like you feel like you gotta
Speaker 10: be fed up with and you gotta like for me,
Speaker 10: I just wanted something different, like I didn't and then
Speaker 10: I had a daughter, So I think my daughter like really,
Speaker 10: my soigns. You know, it's different raising a boy than
Speaker 10: trying to raise a girl. My sons like go do.
Speaker 2: With your mama.
Speaker 10: You feel my daughter just starts seeing certain shit like
Speaker 10: my parent for there might get high para for there, She'll.
Speaker 2: Start seeing around. And she got to the point.
Speaker 10: Where she wouldn't give it to nobody but me, like
Speaker 10: she knew this shit didn't posted nobody. You feel me,
Speaker 10: So it was like that shit really start eating me
Speaker 10: up inside.
Speaker 2: You feel like, man, I got to be a better example.
Speaker 2: I can't you feel me?
Speaker 10: And like that like to this day, that's my dog,
Speaker 10: that's my motivation. That's who I hate, not eve percent
Speaker 10: of what I do this for it with my daughter,
Speaker 10: you feel me.
Speaker 2: It was just that time.
Speaker 10: But also I was tired, and you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 10: And really I didn't know how to do it by myself,
Speaker 10: so I had to like go get some help in
Speaker 10: the program, you feel me.
Speaker 2: The program really didn't help me.
Speaker 10: It gave me the opportunity to be inside and outside
Speaker 10: at the same time, you feel me. So they gave
Speaker 10: me I can go deal with the world a little bit,
Speaker 10: and then I can go back inside.
Speaker 2: I can go deal with the world a little bit.
Speaker 10: Then I can go buy it inside because I had
Speaker 10: been living a certain lifestyle for so long that regular
Speaker 10: life don't register in me. Like how you all think.
Speaker 10: My mind might not think that way, but you feel
Speaker 10: what I'm saying. So a nigga be like sho. They
Speaker 10: automatically think that you're supposed to see life like they
Speaker 10: do not I see like differently because my my addiction
Speaker 10: personality makes me see life differently, you feel I'm saying,
Speaker 10: like it just my thigh press is the slowyer, Mike.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 10: I'm like, you got to understand all this shit you
Speaker 10: did to yourself and then be mindful of the fact that.
Speaker 2: To be okay with.
Speaker 10: It, you feel me because just because I might not
Speaker 10: be as good as you and one thing, don't mean
Speaker 10: that I ain't better than you and something else. I
Speaker 10: still stop being a knockoff version of everybody else, and
Speaker 10: I just found a way to be myself. We be
Speaker 10: picking up shit from everybody else because that shit looked

Speaker 10: have a problem with it. But if it ain't coming
Speaker 10: from somewhere that I think that guy has to do
Speaker 10: with some type of love, I ain't fucking with it
Speaker 10: because you judging me, Nigga, You probably judging me on
Speaker 10: how you judge yourself, because that's the only time we
Speaker 10: see something in somebody else. I can't see nothing in
Speaker 10: me in him that I ain't seen in me. I
Speaker 10: only see it because I see it. It got something
Speaker 10: to do with me, you know what I'm saying, Like

Speaker 10: and open up to motherfuckers that been.
Speaker 2: Down and you might not you might have been on
Speaker 2: the other side of it. It's all the same. Was
Speaker 2: addicted to the same thing. Different addiction is an addiction.
Speaker 2: I don't give a fuck what it was.

Speaker 11: niggas don't know how to admit that, Like now with
Speaker 11: your nigga, why you act like that?
Speaker 2: Because I'm my mature level is that's where I'm at right.

Speaker 10: I got it, motherfucker a tenth grade education.
Speaker 2: Nigga. Most of my thoughts come up first.
Speaker 10: I got a second guesses because they street related and
Speaker 10: the ain't prosperous facts, like.
Speaker 2: I knowing the first thing they come up.
Speaker 10: I'm checking that one is the right one because it's
Speaker 10: gonna pop up from the history of what I've been
Speaker 10: through and how I see life.
Speaker 2: And I've seen life from the hardness, not from the goodness.
Speaker 10: So most of my decisions going my feelings, and everything's
Speaker 10: gonna be about something.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 8: That's why I tell my niggas all the time, I'm
Speaker 8: like my first mind was built off some bullshit. Second
Speaker 8: guess my first live mind make I'm saying, my first
Speaker 8: my first energy, and it's different, it's gonna be different.
Speaker 8: Like if I get my energy, doesn't what it is
Speaker 8: for my first mind got that, you know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 8: hold up, thank that too, cause you.
Speaker 2: Because you're so used to reacting.
Speaker 10: And a reaction come from what you didn't put in
Speaker 10: you you feel me and so you and and I'm
Speaker 10: still like I'm still in the growing process, you know
Speaker 10: what I'm saying, Like I still got the.
Speaker 2: Show, but you feel me like I ain't through that
Speaker 2: motherfucker to the side.
Speaker 10: I'm still digging some ship out because the better the
Speaker 10: more you learn about yourself, the more you get to
Speaker 10: realize your traumas you feel your childhood traumas like or
Speaker 10: your relationship traumas or or how or why should And
Speaker 10: I don't trust this nigga, Like no, this nigga might
Speaker 10: be able to be trusted, but the streets didn't till
Speaker 10: me saying I'm gonna tell you this.
Speaker 2: My daddy put me when I was a kid. My
Speaker 2: daddy put me in the tree and put the backpack.
Speaker 2: You know when we was a kid.
Speaker 10: You had to see Joe made you drive around, throw
Speaker 10: them in the air. That mofuckers turned in the parachute,
Speaker 10: put a backpack on me, put the string at the
Speaker 10: bottom of the backpack, told me to climb up the tree,
Speaker 10: jump by the tree, pull a string. Parashoe gonna come out.
Speaker 10: You're gonna fuck to the ground. I jump, pull a string,
Speaker 10: hit the ground, start crying. The nigga say, don't never
Speaker 10: trust me or nobody trust him. Right there and for
Speaker 10: the rest of my life is fucked up. I'm trying to.
Speaker 10: I'm trying to.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to listen, though, I'm gonna tell you how
Speaker 2: I go. The nigga catch me.
Speaker 1: On my Grandmama's house a.
Speaker 2: Year later, said, nigga, get down or beat your ass.
Speaker 2: He said, a matter of fact, nigga, come here, jump,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna catch you. Nigga, I'm about to beat your ass.
Speaker 10: You know I jumped that nigga walked off when I jumped,
Speaker 10: when he went like this, and I jumped.
Speaker 1: That nigga walked off.
Speaker 10: He said, I told your dumb ass, don't never trust nobody.
Speaker 2: But you can't live your whole life that way.
Speaker 10: You feel me, So now it's like you gotta figure
Speaker 10: out if somebody really.
Speaker 2: Deserve your trust.
Speaker 10: You feel me because you don't want to deal with
Speaker 10: everybody that you love from an untrustful point because somebody
Speaker 10: else taught you that you shouldn't trust nobody. Now, nigga,
Speaker 10: the person I shouldn't have been trusting with you, and
Speaker 10: now you never fucking me up to think I shouldn't
Speaker 10: trust everybody else because you don't want me to look
Speaker 10: at you different than I look at everybody else. You
Speaker 10: want me to see you from the same lenses. So
Speaker 10: you're gonna create the lenses of no trust.
Speaker 1: Now, that's just like people. People who got the fate
Speaker 1: love you.
Speaker 8: The reason why they be so blocking of other people
Speaker 8: loving you because they don't like what real love like.
Speaker 8: That's what you know what I'm saying, like a love
Speaker 8: for that true to love you don't matter, don't don't
Speaker 8: care about releasing you right because they know they love
Speaker 8: you like I don't care who you be friends.
Speaker 1: Man, I don't care who you whatever, because I know
Speaker 1: what I got.
Speaker 2: I love you. All you're gonna do is for my
Speaker 2: mother gets something similar to what I give you.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 2: But then if not, you're gonna be like, you.
Speaker 10: Don't love me, because this would love look like now, yes, right,
Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying, So trust me? You want
Speaker 10: you want to created me to look at you, to
Speaker 10: look at everybody the same way I should be looking
Speaker 10: at you.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 10: By so you created me not to trust people, and
Speaker 10: then you don't know that affects you when you get.
Speaker 2: Older, Like now I don't trust.
Speaker 10: People, I'll be like, now, I'll be like, let me
Speaker 10: wait till they do something for me, not just trust them.
Speaker 2: Instead of going in.
Speaker 10: Because when you don't trust anybody, you don't give them
Speaker 10: the opportunity to be the best version of them for you.
Speaker 10: You feel mean you holding in back because you ain't
Speaker 10: atting to get close enough to trust you.
