WEBVTT - More Conversations About Rappers 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:04.360 Watch up and welcome back to another episode and no 0:00:04.519 --> 0:00:07.520 Seillers podcast with your host. Not funk that with your 0:00:07.560 --> 0:00:16.280 low glasses, Malone. So just one of them days we're 0:00:16.320 --> 0:00:21.279 supposed to talk about something else, Pete and uh, we 0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:26.320 gotta talk about some boyshit. And and the one thing 0:00:26.400 --> 0:00:28.760 I think we try to do with No Ceilings really 0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:35.040 well is we don't really talk about current events. This 0:00:35.159 --> 0:00:38.840 is not that kind of podcast. It's a podcast that's 0:00:40.000 --> 0:00:44.600 rooted to me in philosophy, ideology, you know, thoughts really 0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:46.760 thinking like this ain't the news, you know what I mean, 0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:52.159 This ain't the news, Ryna, where we cover the current news. Um, 0:00:52.240 --> 0:00:54.840 the current news could come through No Ceilings, but it's 0:00:54.880 --> 0:01:00.440 always gonna tie into a greater conversation, you know, about 0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:06.560 the culture's perspective, you know, on on whatever the content 0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:10.640 is itself on the subject. But um, I'm praying for 0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:15.720 pnb Rock when everybody here this podcast, Um, God willing, 0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:17.560 nothing happened to him? You know what I mean is 0:01:17.680 --> 0:01:19.800 something did happen to him? If he didn't pour through 0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:26.000 rest in peace? Um, that's ship fucked up. But it's 0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:29.680 it's a it's a really bad time in America. It's 0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:33.960 been a really bad time. It's been a really bad time, 0:01:34.080 --> 0:01:36.399 you know what I mean, Like people really poor people 0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:40.840 getting kicked out their houses. People right now are more 0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:46.240 desperate than they ever been. Like they're more desperate, you know. Um, 0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:50.880 the more ratorium is up, so people losing their houses. Um. 0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:55.040 One of my partners robbed. He's in a car finance 0:01:55.120 --> 0:01:58.640 and shout out to the hommy rob um. But he 0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:02.400 was telling me, like the repo rate is like at 0:02:02.400 --> 0:02:06.000 all time high, you know. I mean, people are really 0:02:06.040 --> 0:02:10.680 going through it. And the way jobs are going out 0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:13.200 the window, you know, the way we turn into AI 0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:18.200 as a society. We forget it ain't always about making 0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:21.360 life faster, like we like to call that efficiency, you know, 0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:23.120 but it's not, you know what I mean, It's really 0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:33.120 like lowering the quality of life, Like, uh, convenience kills quality, 0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:42.799 you know. Um. And I just thought about this. So 0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:45.640 as I'm looking at the whole story and fold. Right, 0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:49.880 as I'm looking at the whole story and fold, one 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:54.000 thing I noticed, they said, I guess his old lady 0:02:54.040 --> 0:03:00.760 posted a picture on Instagram can under saying where they 0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:05.560 was at. Now. I don't know if that's related, you know, 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:08.360 to his robbery. Attempt. I mean, he was at the 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:10.920 Roscos in Inglewood, you know what I mean, which ain't 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:13.880 Inglewood is a tough place, you know, I mean because 0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:17.680 you quite don't know, you kind of in the middle 0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:22.960 of some bullshit even when you are if you don't know. Um, 0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:25.120 I don't know what type of jury he was wearing, 0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:27.760 what I'm saying, I don't know none of that. I 0:03:27.880 --> 0:03:32.799 just know that this is a real tough situation. And 0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:38.040 the first thing I noticed on social media was everybody 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:43.200 you know talking about Los Angeles. Los Angeles is you know, 0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:46.520 blah blah blah. You know, a D shout out to 0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:50.400 me a D counter from Lantana, like l A is 0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:56.119 worse than it's ever been. And he said it's it's 0:03:56.160 --> 0:03:58.680 never been this bad. And I tweeted him back. I said, 0:03:59.000 --> 0:04:03.840 it's always been in this bad. It's always been this bad. 0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:07.200 It might have been worse at times, but it's always 0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:10.800 been this bad. I would say this gene, Um, it 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.600 has always been this bad. The different set of factors 0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:18.080 that differentiated today from yesteryear is we didn't have the 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.599 ability to post where we are in the real time, 0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:25.720 so his girlfriend posting where they're at, they could very 0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:28.440 much be why people knew he where he where where 0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:33.000 he was. And it's crazy because going back to pop 0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:38.919 Smoke right, a lot of people were insinuating that he 0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:41.760 the location that he was at was posted. He did 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:45.880 it kind of swinging the camera. It's by accident somehow 0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:49.200 that the the location was revealed. Like if you've seen 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:52.120 the location, it's it's a very unique looking location, so 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:58.599 you could know where it's at. Um. But it was 0:04:58.640 --> 0:05:01.240 a couple of things that made me want to talk 0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:06.359 about this subject. So this is no seilings glasses Malone, 0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:09.360 my man Peter Boss in the spot as usual, I 0:05:09.480 --> 0:05:15.279 got my big brother and resident guests um and extremely 0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:23.039 articulate podcast and my big brother still um, I don't know, man, 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:26.839 I just don't know. Like um, So one thing I 0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:30.320 wanted to unpack about this this thing with with rappers 0:05:30.320 --> 0:05:33.839 in Los Angeles or it's hard being a rapper, like 0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:41.159 that's the that's becoming a conversation. And just last week, 0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:45.720 you know, we got a resignation letter from Kwando Rondo 0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:49.880 about you know, him resigning for being a crypt. I've 0:05:49.920 --> 0:05:53.760 never seen a public written letter from a nigga, you know, 0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:59.680 resigning on being a crypt and let's just rewind it 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:06.640 back to that point with Kwando Rondo. Um, I've heard 0:06:06.720 --> 0:06:10.039 multiple stories, you know, I've heard stories from the homies 0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:12.560 that surrounding situation my good people, and I don't really 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:16.039 want to get to detailed. Well it don't matter. I 0:06:16.080 --> 0:06:18.640 can actually get detail and stand up for them niggas. 0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:26.120 So you know a story I heard was, um, so, 0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:29.960 Kwando Rondo is from a Savannah neighborhood game. Like you know, 0:06:29.960 --> 0:06:33.320 neighborhood is like a it's almost like the access power. 0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:36.920 It's like a a network of crips, you know what 0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:40.640 I mean. And they all are their own entity, right 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:43.119 the forties, the Rolling forty crips are their own entity, 0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:48.599 but they fall under this this union, this banner that 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:51.960 you know, they called neighborhood cryps. The sixties fall under 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:55.239 that same banner. The Rolling Sixties, the one of Levin's 0:06:55.320 --> 0:06:59.160 fall under the same banner. You know, Um, the East Coast, 0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:01.719 some of their some of their clicks, you know, the 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:04.680 six packs to six does to six instance is now 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:08.440 they all fall under you know, the neighborhood banner. It's 0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:13.680 more gangs daily converting to you know that banner, which 0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:16.920 to me, like I I make I tee some of 0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:19.840 the homies about it, but I do respect it. They're 0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:22.440 trying to find a place of peace, so it's not 0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:25.560 a bunch of you know, random people kidding each other. 0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:29.840 They find it some common bond to exist together. Um. 0:07:29.880 --> 0:07:33.640 But he's from a neighborhood crip gang that's in Savannah 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:39.120 and Georgia. And he extended, you know, his hand to 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:43.800 you know, to one assistance in a relationship with some 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:47.080 of the neighborhood crips in Los Angeles. And it wasn't 0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:54.320 a further a criminal enterprise. You know. It happened right 0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:57.200 after the situation where King Von, you know, him and 0:07:57.280 --> 0:07:59.480 King Von had their skirmish and King Von lost his 0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:01.840 life and that whole situation rest in peace to King Von. 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:08.680 So he reaches out to them. Now mm, emotional minds 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:12.040 will say, you know, he was looking for relationships to 0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:15.160 have people. You know, you're looking for allies. You you now, 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:16.880 you're in the midst of a real war that could 0:08:16.920 --> 0:08:19.320 go really bad. You know what. Some people that ask 0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:22.920 that have already shown to be violent and now you're 0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:25.560 looking for allies. So he reached out to allies, right, 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:30.040 which would be a bunch of poor people from Los Angeles. 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:33.280 That represents the neighborhood, and that's a part of the neighborhood. 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:37.560 Click and you know he was looking for allies. So 0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:40.640 he comes, he sits down, he does big you you know, 0:08:40.679 --> 0:08:44.400 he does uh podcast, Big youth podcast and shout out 0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:48.920 to Uncle good nigga always been a one um. And 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:52.400 he's just going on gloating about being a cript and 0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:55.560 how down he was for cripping all how down he 0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:58.360 was for cripping, How down he was. This big bad nigga, 0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:00.800 Big bad nigga. Oh, he's super crip. He never give 0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:03.920 up cripping, even when he's saying his prayers, you know, 0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:07.000 in the back of his mind, even when he praying 0:09:07.000 --> 0:09:09.040 to God, he said, man, I can't stop being a crip. 0:09:09.679 --> 0:09:14.360 And you fast forward one year later, and you know 0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:18.480 he's writing a letter saying, oh man, you know y'all 0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:20.720 don't got my back, y'all not gonna ride for me. 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.640 And I thought it was funny. I thought it was hilyrius. 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:28.600 So I posted it on Twitter and I just laughed 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:31.440 at it. I was like, it's craziest. One year and 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:33.719 you know, people got mad. They hit me, Oh man, 0:09:33.760 --> 0:09:37.160 did you you know, he's you know, he's changing his life. 0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:38.920 And I'm like, you know, I talked about it, saying, 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:43.880 hey man, this is not the root of his problem. 0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:46.440 Him being a neighborhood crip is not the root of 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:49.679 what his conflict is right now, you know, I mean 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:52.720 he he like like he didn't. He's not at it 0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:56.640 with Hoover's. He's not at it with you know, Inglewood families. 0:09:56.960 --> 0:09:59.400 He's not at it with a trade gangster crips who 0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:02.640 would be guys who you know might have an issue 0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:07.760 in neighborhood cryps some rapper stuff, right, And this is 0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:11.120 and this is the point I'm getting to. The concept 0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:15.080 of being a rapper being dangerous is just silly. The 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:19.679 reality is, all you gotta do is start watching what 0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:27.920 the funk you saying. Like, if you watch what you're saying, 0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:32.400 you have a great problem. The problem is people try 0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:37.720 to boast their rep vicariously through what they saying on records. 0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:43.000 It's one thing to be in front of your homeboys 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:46.679 saying some tough ship. It's another thing to get on 0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:51.400 a record and disrespect a lot of people where everybody 0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:55.160 can hear you. And now every time you come into 0:10:55.240 --> 0:11:01.960 communities somebody may want to test the theory. You know. 0:11:02.640 --> 0:11:05.480 My thing with that whole thing is for him to 0:11:05.600 --> 0:11:09.040 feel the need to make this public declaration that he's 0:11:09.080 --> 0:11:10.959 no longer gonna be a cript as corny as hell. 0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:17.040 It's like usually, I've never known anyone in my adult 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:19.960 life not been around for a while now to write 0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:23.000 some letters and resign from the cripts of the Bloods 0:11:23.000 --> 0:11:24.959 like they're working for a job like this probly in 0:11:24.960 --> 0:11:27.840 the residentation letter, I am no longer available to put 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:33.800 it in work. You know, he got cripps, got cripping 0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:39.200 his two week notification. But there's a belief right and 0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:42.080 I've heard it amongst some people was like, oh, gee, 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:44.120 you know this is him fixing his life. No, it's 0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:48.320 not because being a crip did not get his Homi kill. 0:11:49.960 --> 0:11:53.080 That's not what got his friend killed. I'm plugged in 0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:55.520 enough in the streets to know being a crip is 0:11:55.559 --> 0:11:59.600 not what God his friend killed was. The irony is, 0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:03.560 you know, when he when initially he reached out, I 0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:05.960 don't know if he's done a really good job of 0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:12.360 building a relationship with his counterparts in Los Angeles. There's 0:12:12.720 --> 0:12:14.720 you know, I'm talking to one of my partners, and 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:17.320 they don't have because he's not coming out here to 0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:20.400 do programs for the kids, and now he's not building 0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:25.040 the bond or a lot of them is not with him. 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:28.520 What good is being a part of a huge network 0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:33.280 of people that are for the most part, it's a 0:12:33.360 --> 0:12:36.319 decent amount familiar with violence if you don't utilize a 0:12:36.400 --> 0:12:44.480 network when you're in that territory, you know what I mean. 0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:48.600 Regardless of whatever happened rest in pieces partner that got killed, 0:12:49.120 --> 0:12:51.520 brother name, but he seemed like a solid brother. I've 0:12:51.520 --> 0:12:57.080 seen a couple of things. But you know, you have 0:12:57.200 --> 0:13:01.520 a network of people, right you you you you're saying 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:05.120 you're a neighborhood crip, right, you have a network of it. 0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:08.520 You're in the middle of a conflict, like that's my point. 0:13:08.600 --> 0:13:11.720 He's in the middle of a conflict where somebody lost 0:13:11.760 --> 0:13:14.400 their life. I mean, this is not that long. It's 0:13:14.440 --> 0:13:17.120 a year ago, you know, King Viola's life. So you're 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:20.400 in the Schmack death center of a conflict that's already 0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:26.360 turned deadly, you know what I mean. So if if 0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:31.400 you're in my mind, you have to go on offensive. Now. 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:33.680 We can't just exist peacefully, you know, I mean That's 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:36.240 how I feel about it. My thing is I have 0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:40.920 to be hyper aggressive to end the conflict and saying 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:46.520 but you know, sometimes people you know, have deadly solutions, right, 0:13:46.679 --> 0:13:50.320 Some people have deadly issues that turned daily it just 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:53.720 keep trying to live their life. Now, I'm not saying 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:59.280 he wasn't mindful of the conflict as a rapper. But 0:13:59.400 --> 0:14:03.280 what I'm saying is you have a network of people 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:06.160 here that you are a part of this network. Why 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:08.440 is it not more people with you? Why are you 0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:12.520 not building that bond? Right? So fast forward to the 0:14:12.600 --> 0:14:15.319 young man getting killed that was with him, and then 0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:19.200 he writes his resonation letter and so part of the 0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:21.720 situation I'm hearing is the family of the dude that 0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:25.240 got killed with Kwan Doronda was upset with him, you 0:14:25.280 --> 0:14:29.080 know what I mean. And you know that's how it 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:30.760 really goes, you know what i mean. Like I've seen 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:33.040 situations with parents get into a dude that be with 0:14:33.120 --> 0:14:36.240 a siblings or children when they get killed. Whatever. You 0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:39.400 know I'm saying, and you're gonna blame The natural emotion 0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:42.840 is to blame the person next to him, especially his 0:14:42.920 --> 0:14:45.520 situation to where his conflict has been so public and 0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:50.160 it actually has hit the boiling point. You feel me 0:14:50.480 --> 0:14:54.040 like public. I just want to tell you a couple 0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:56.480 of things like this stuff right here is just saying 0:14:56.560 --> 0:15:00.000 to me because you have to you have two things 0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:03.160 is going on here. You know, you can't even go 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:06.800 out if you were young, like you said, if you're 0:15:06.800 --> 0:15:10.760 a young rapper, young athlete, whoever. You know, it's funny though, 0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:12.920 if you're a younger turner guy to just passed the 0:15:12.960 --> 0:15:15.520 bar exam and just or just made partner at your 0:15:15.600 --> 0:15:18.400 law firm, you don't have the same words. This is 0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:20.760 a guy that's a Look just look at the dynamic 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:23.600 for a minute. They don't have the same concerns with 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:26.240 a god that's an athlete or a guy that's a 0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:28.600 rapper or whatever. I don't even think actors go through 0:15:28.640 --> 0:15:31.880 the same thing. What why do you think that is? 0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:39.200 I mean, let's be honest, right, um, forgive me because 0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:43.680 it's gonna come on super prejudice. But the average rapper 0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:49.120 is attempting to wear their wealth publicly, and they tend 0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:52.920 to find themselves in places where people that don't have wealth, 0:15:54.360 --> 0:15:59.880 people who are struggling people. They think those are athletes. Yeah, 0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:06.320 I mean if you walk outside. If you walk outside 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:10.480 right as a rapper, If you walk outside and you 0:16:10.560 --> 0:16:14.280 have a hundred and fifty thousand dollars worth of jury, 0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:24.320 and you come anywhere near where poor people are, especially 0:16:24.360 --> 0:16:28.000 somebody that comes from the environment. If you go anywhere 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:33.560 where poor people are, what are you really expect? It's 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:36.600 like walking See, we really would like to believe as 0:16:36.680 --> 0:16:41.320 human beings we are super evolved past animals right with 0:16:41.560 --> 0:16:44.560 all you know, we have the i Q thought, you 0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:47.280 know whatever we think. What what's the word pete that 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:49.600 makes us feel we're superior to animals? What do they say? 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:53.800 Rash and now I'm crazy that don't really make sense. 0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:57.320 But they hold their head, they hold their heat to it. 0:16:57.400 --> 0:17:02.840 That's all this This is was the reality is. If 0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:06.040 there's an opportunity to gain a hundred and fifty thousand 0:17:06.119 --> 0:17:08.960 and you don't have a significant value, I mean, this 0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:12.400 is not attorney's robbing these people. You know, attorney goes 0:17:12.440 --> 0:17:14.960 to celebrate, you know, a winning a big case. He's 0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:17.119 not coming out with his hundred and fifty thousand, not 0:17:17.240 --> 0:17:20.720 a chain on. He not got here two hundred rolesque song. 0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:24.280 He jumped out his rary. He not gonna go to 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:26.920 the spot where the brothers is hanging that's doing bad. 0:17:27.440 --> 0:17:30.479 Like he's not going there that way. And consider it 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:34.000 this way though, Like you're also talking about like microwave fortunes. 0:17:34.840 --> 0:17:37.400 You know, you get young guys who get all their 0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:41.320 money at once in the beginning, and you go back 0:17:41.359 --> 0:17:43.560 to where your friends are or whatever else. Not every 0:17:43.600 --> 0:17:46.399 athletes from the hood, none of every probably rapper is, 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:49.560 but the ones that are go back to where it's familiar. 0:17:49.840 --> 0:17:52.000 And like, what's the definition of the world. Like people say, oh, 0:17:52.000 --> 0:17:53.840 I'm stunting or whatever the hell? What does that mean? 0:17:53.960 --> 0:17:57.560 It means you're fucking like you're showing somebody else up 0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:03.719 like like like glass. It says you there's nothing wrong 0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:06.920 because a lot of those people have completed this massive, 0:18:07.040 --> 0:18:10.200 long journey that culminates to them getting that one amount 0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:11.960 of money. So they're feeling good and they want to 0:18:12.000 --> 0:18:14.879 go celebrate. They want to get something to honor you 0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:17.280 know the situation, right, So they go out of body's 0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:20.720 chain and they're going out to celebrate, but they go 0:18:20.800 --> 0:18:22.560 to the wrong place. Man. The next thing you know, 0:18:23.000 --> 0:18:25.040 they lose their life. But why do you want to 0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:28.119 go by a big gaudy chain. I actually agree with 0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:30.240 Pete in that sense. You know what I mean. It's 0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:32.399 like like in old school, like in baseball, when you 0:18:32.480 --> 0:18:35.200 hit a home run, you don't stare down the picture. 0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:37.960 You know what I'm saying, you're gonna get Look, let 0:18:37.960 --> 0:18:41.960 me finish my point, because to me, it's sad both ways. Right, 0:18:42.840 --> 0:18:45.000 I don't and I don't think every kid goes out 0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:47.000 their way to go back and just stunt on people. 0:18:47.800 --> 0:18:50.959 But I think maybe not deliberately. I think Pete is 0:18:51.160 --> 0:18:54.720 a lot right, Like right, it's oh, he's right. But 0:18:55.720 --> 0:18:58.800 even even even if its okay, it's like you might 0:18:58.800 --> 0:19:02.639 not not do it maliciously, but you do it inadvertently exactly. 0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:05.520 He's right. You show up with a big gass fucking 0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:08.040 like you're just happy, like you're just happy to be you. 0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:10.359 You're real happy that day. But you show up with 0:19:10.400 --> 0:19:12.959 a big old production and all your friends in a 0:19:12.960 --> 0:19:15.240 new car and chain and all the ship and whatever 0:19:15.240 --> 0:19:20.360 the hell else, you're inadvertently and indirectly, even if you're 0:19:20.400 --> 0:19:23.399 not doing it on purpose. Yeah, like if it's just celebrating, 0:19:23.760 --> 0:19:25.760 let me finish me having one of those kids, and 0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:28.120 I don't want to get it onto about my son, right, 0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:32.800 But me seeing this stuff right, um my son. At 0:19:32.800 --> 0:19:36.080 first when he first took a piece of money, he 0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:37.919 went out and bought the big change. And he was 0:19:37.960 --> 0:19:40.200 in the place where he wasn't around nobody of stunning. 0:19:40.280 --> 0:19:42.840 He was around other people that's in the same profession 0:19:42.960 --> 0:19:46.680 he's in. He gets robbed coming off the club, so 0:19:46.760 --> 0:19:52.600 he wouldn't know where stunting on nobody he did, literally 0:19:52.600 --> 0:19:54.840 like real story or this is this is this is 0:19:54.880 --> 0:19:58.359 a real story. This is a real story. Yeah. So, 0:19:59.040 --> 0:20:01.240 And he wasn't in a location where he was starting 0:20:01.240 --> 0:20:05.520 don't know aboudy he was in Hollywood. Something walked up 0:20:05.520 --> 0:20:09.480 on him and leaving the club, like, hey, what's what 0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:12.200 was the hold on? What's what's the culture of going 0:20:12.200 --> 0:20:14.480 out to the club in Hollywood? It's I want to 0:20:14.480 --> 0:20:17.440 get it. But that's what's what it's all about. It's 0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:20.800 all about separating yourself to look like you're doing more 0:20:20.840 --> 0:20:22.520 than the next guys. I'm gonna get a table, I'm 0:20:22.560 --> 0:20:24.200 gonna buy a bottle, they're gonna carry it. They're on 0:20:24.359 --> 0:20:27.879 firework show on the bottom and this is doing Super 0:20:27.880 --> 0:20:30.480 Bowl weaken. My thing is this. We can't keep giving 0:20:30.520 --> 0:20:32.600 these hohol against excuses to go out and do the 0:20:32.640 --> 0:20:35.320 ship that they do. Still, I'm not with that. I 0:20:35.400 --> 0:20:38.639 don't know. That's not what I'm saying. But listen, I 0:20:38.680 --> 0:20:42.399 don't agree with that. Would you call a whol agan 0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:53.000 uh fucking lion if he saw a deer? Hey you're 0:20:53.080 --> 0:21:00.440 mute it Still no, like I wouldn't call a deer. 0:21:01.280 --> 0:21:05.760 I wouldn't call a lion um a whol again if 0:21:05.840 --> 0:21:08.840 he saw a deer when it's time to eat. But 0:21:08.920 --> 0:21:12.960 if you steal somebody else's foodure a parasite. Yeah, listen 0:21:13.000 --> 0:21:18.919 to me, I understand what you're saying. The economic situation 0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:21.359 is so fun. People feel like they don't have no 0:21:21.480 --> 0:21:25.159 alternative but to do nothing but going to rob somebody. Well, 0:21:26.600 --> 0:21:32.480 it's more than just that, right, It's Look, I don't 0:21:32.480 --> 0:21:37.359 need to make excuses for our background, right there, there's 0:21:37.440 --> 0:21:41.080 no excuses to be made. If you oppress a people enough, 0:21:41.560 --> 0:21:46.200 you make them feel trapped enough, then they respond primitively. Right, 0:21:46.280 --> 0:21:49.159 Because I agree if you steal somebody, fool, you know 0:21:49.200 --> 0:21:51.560 what I mean that that is a parasite to some degree, 0:21:51.840 --> 0:21:55.720 but it's also a way as human beings, even rappers, 0:21:55.760 --> 0:21:59.520 have to conduct themselves in a humane manner and This 0:21:59.600 --> 0:22:04.160 is where me and Pete clashes about hyper capitalism being 0:22:04.240 --> 0:22:07.960 this cool place to exist, because all it really does 0:22:08.119 --> 0:22:11.840 is show if somebody has extremely too much and somebody 0:22:11.920 --> 0:22:16.200 has extremely not enough, you know what I mean, Like 0:22:16.560 --> 0:22:20.360 it's that horrible. That's a problem with the world. And 0:22:20.960 --> 0:22:25.960 not to mention, we're cultivating failure in the mind with it, 0:22:26.960 --> 0:22:29.560 Like where the culture of picking up women if you 0:22:29.600 --> 0:22:32.560 want to find a wife, Like I've read a post 0:22:32.600 --> 0:22:36.199 today and let me tell you something. This is like 0:22:36.320 --> 0:22:39.960 the craziest ship in the world to me. The post says, 0:22:41.600 --> 0:22:44.960 I want black women to get comfortable with telling people 0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:49.120 you're not doing enough for me. I want more than 0:22:49.160 --> 0:22:52.800 you are capable or willing to provide. More times than not, 0:22:52.960 --> 0:22:55.320 people coming to our lives and leave with more than 0:22:55.359 --> 0:22:57.800 what they had, and what we're left with is nothing. 0:22:58.000 --> 0:23:03.679 That's dead. That's the culture were cultivating. We're colding that 0:23:04.040 --> 0:23:07.920 men are judged by what they have. Right, So if 0:23:07.960 --> 0:23:11.680 you trap them into a place, right, if you say, hey, 0:23:11.720 --> 0:23:15.919 you're nothing without if you don't have this, the only 0:23:16.400 --> 0:23:21.360 decision is to do whatever it takes by any means. 0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:24.960 And I think Malcolm X thing by any means, and 0:23:25.000 --> 0:23:28.320 I think another like additional factor if you talk about 0:23:29.160 --> 0:23:34.080 relationships and whatnot. A lot of what the fruits of 0:23:34.280 --> 0:23:38.359 the benefits or whatever are of making ten million dollars 0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:40.960 when you're twenty three years old, or you can roll 0:23:41.119 --> 0:23:43.480 up and you can snatch anybody's girl you want to. 0:23:44.600 --> 0:23:47.000 So when you when you come up and do that, 0:23:47.880 --> 0:23:51.960 you're you're not. There's also a point and there's a 0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:54.680 line of the sand to me and this and in 0:23:54.680 --> 0:23:57.040 this type of dynamic where it's not just simply I 0:23:57.160 --> 0:24:00.679 have something and you have less, so you can capitalize 0:24:00.720 --> 0:24:03.680 on getting something from me, it's also like I'm gonna 0:24:03.800 --> 0:24:05.600 take something else from I'm gonna take that girl you've 0:24:05.600 --> 0:24:07.280 been trying to talk to. I'm gonna take her right now. 0:24:07.760 --> 0:24:11.120 But I'm not even gonna But again, that's a cheap 0:24:11.160 --> 0:24:14.120 way to accomplish something too. But that's a whole another 0:24:14.200 --> 0:24:20.680 story's chain. Well, so right, there's a double sided thing 0:24:20.720 --> 0:24:24.640 about that. That's a double sided thing about it. Right, 0:24:24.680 --> 0:24:28.120 there's a sense of masculinity when niggas Jack yo, chain 0:24:28.880 --> 0:24:34.000 Like like if same with someone jack's your girl? Yeah, yeah, 0:24:34.200 --> 0:24:39.080 I agree, right, man, You see I feel some levels, 0:24:39.119 --> 0:24:43.240 I feel like you're seeing brother, but some of these 0:24:43.240 --> 0:24:45.960 guys out here committing these failing these dogs are people 0:24:46.040 --> 0:24:47.440 that are just doing it to be doing them to 0:24:47.480 --> 0:24:52.320 flix their muscle again again. Like I can't talk about 0:24:52.359 --> 0:24:56.000 that small percentage of rich people robbing people because then 0:24:56.000 --> 0:24:58.080 we have to start talking about what I'm not necessarily 0:24:58.080 --> 0:25:00.680 saying rich people. I'm talking about people. Now we have 0:25:00.760 --> 0:25:02.680 to start talking about Nick Pharma. We had to start 0:25:02.680 --> 0:25:06.520 talking about any record label. There's there's a spectrum. Yeah, 0:25:07.520 --> 0:25:09.720 you know, it's like you might not be destitute, but 0:25:09.800 --> 0:25:13.119 you might just want more than you have, you know, 0:25:13.119 --> 0:25:15.480 and you might and it's not that urgent, but you 0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:18.200 just want it. What I'm saying, I think the percentage 0:25:18.200 --> 0:25:20.320 of with this property, and I think the other percentage 0:25:20.359 --> 0:25:22.720 of with this ego of somebody saying, I don't know 0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:25.120 this buster rade, it didn't come up here study trying 0:25:25.160 --> 0:25:27.640 to make me feel bad. I think people really take 0:25:27.680 --> 0:25:30.560 a first. I think that's a very minute percentage of it. 0:25:31.000 --> 0:25:33.720 Like one thing Boozy said in the Flag interview, he 0:25:33.920 --> 0:25:37.159 making something about people have hypnotized by hatred. There are 0:25:37.160 --> 0:25:39.760 a lot of people that are hypnotized by another person's 0:25:39.760 --> 0:25:44.159 success and feel like that's a personal tech against them. 0:25:44.200 --> 0:25:48.240 It's like I don't know, like as many probably hundreds 0:25:48.240 --> 0:25:50.360 of nights as I've spent in the nightclubs and as 0:25:50.400 --> 0:25:52.520 many dozens of spots as I've been in where this 0:25:52.560 --> 0:25:54.880 type of ship kind of happened or happened right after 0:25:54.960 --> 0:25:57.680 I left or whatever, it's been a lot. You can 0:25:57.680 --> 0:26:01.760 see it building up, you know, it's there is like 0:26:01.800 --> 0:26:04.960 the opportunistic like Jacker who comes up? You know, I'm 0:26:05.080 --> 0:26:06.639 seeing that in Phoenix. My boy used to know who 0:26:06.680 --> 0:26:09.359 they were. We'd be leaving early because he always leave 0:26:09.400 --> 0:26:12.920 early as a safety precaution, leave at one thirty. And 0:26:12.960 --> 0:26:15.360 when we broll up, you go, oh, ship, there's here. 0:26:15.359 --> 0:26:18.520 Come to Jackers and they park in the back. And 0:26:18.800 --> 0:26:22.640 that happened for sure. But also like there's a lot 0:26:22.680 --> 0:26:25.879 of where it is just eager. You can see it 0:26:25.920 --> 0:26:28.240 coming and slow motion, there's a little bit of looking 0:26:28.320 --> 0:26:30.120 there's a little bit of looking back, and you see 0:26:30.119 --> 0:26:33.200 it kind of build and culminate, and that happens a 0:26:33.280 --> 0:26:35.359 lot as well. This situation at the restaurant's not that 0:26:35.400 --> 0:26:37.439 because I don't think that they were eyeballing somebody from 0:26:37.480 --> 0:26:41.920 the other table talking about and that's where we fall 0:26:42.040 --> 0:26:44.840 that and I feel where you. But I'm saying, once 0:26:45.160 --> 0:26:47.800 you really think that this is what this is about, 0:26:48.320 --> 0:26:50.720 you know what I mean? Like, oh, they up? You 0:26:50.800 --> 0:26:54.000 mean they up? So let me flex my ego into 0:26:54.040 --> 0:26:57.360 just take something from them. Don't think for two seconds 0:26:57.400 --> 0:26:59.359 that they got to figure it out, because wouldn't nobody 0:26:59.400 --> 0:27:03.360 threatened they livelihood for this type of crime. If you 0:27:03.440 --> 0:27:07.000 are great, yes, there there's the one percent of people 0:27:07.080 --> 0:27:10.120 should night that might take your chain. That's a multime millionaire, 0:27:10.440 --> 0:27:13.320 but that's not most people. So even if somebody has 0:27:13.400 --> 0:27:17.360 three thousand dollars and you're wearing a hundred and dollar 0:27:17.400 --> 0:27:20.800 war for jury, that's much like lions don't just kill 0:27:21.359 --> 0:27:25.119 you know, frogs. I mean they'll kill a deer and 0:27:25.160 --> 0:27:29.119 have the deer for days to eat. You prepare for 0:27:29.200 --> 0:27:35.720 the future. So my easy, it's easy to just write 0:27:35.720 --> 0:27:38.280 it off and say, oh man, it's just a bunch 0:27:38.280 --> 0:27:41.600 of criminals. Uhh. And see, I don't think that's all. 0:27:41.680 --> 0:27:43.160 I think there are a lot of people that don't 0:27:43.200 --> 0:27:47.520 have the opportunities and are just an unfortunate places is 0:27:47.560 --> 0:27:50.040 a motherfucker. And it's not just it's not just a 0:27:50.080 --> 0:27:52.840 regular type of poverty. It's it's an oppression to go 0:27:52.920 --> 0:27:57.080 with it and living in a society where a bunch 0:27:57.080 --> 0:27:59.600 of people keep telling you you not if you don't 0:27:59.640 --> 0:28:02.439 have it, a bunch of people telling you you not 0:28:02.480 --> 0:28:05.200 ship if you work in McDonald's, and no matter what, 0:28:06.080 --> 0:28:09.320 especially in today's time, here's the place I do agree 0:28:09.320 --> 0:28:12.560 with a d with right, because I don't think l 0:28:12.600 --> 0:28:14.639 A is worse, But I do think the world is 0:28:14.680 --> 0:28:18.080 a lot cheaper than it ever was because social social 0:28:18.320 --> 0:28:21.880 you know, like this, the connecting through social networking, right, 0:28:23.000 --> 0:28:25.720 it makes actually you don't have to work as hard, 0:28:26.920 --> 0:28:30.520 right to to you don't have to work as hard 0:28:31.520 --> 0:28:34.439 to produce the facade. It cheapens the work that you 0:28:34.480 --> 0:28:37.560 have to do to be something like you can fool everybody. 0:28:37.880 --> 0:28:41.320 And it has raised the value of social currency. While 0:28:41.360 --> 0:28:44.560 the American dollar may be going down, social currency is 0:28:44.600 --> 0:28:53.719 going up. Yeah. So somebody like Kwando Lando posting that, 0:28:54.400 --> 0:28:56.280 he could have just said, you know what I'm done 0:28:56.480 --> 0:28:57.960 if a Nikka called him that, you know what I'm 0:28:58.000 --> 0:29:00.760 done with that, But there's a social currency as a 0:29:00.840 --> 0:29:06.000 rapper for him posting that, right, it's value. It makes headlines. 0:29:06.440 --> 0:29:10.440 He did it on purpose to make one organization. You 0:29:10.480 --> 0:29:13.880 know what I mean to to capitalize off the same organization. 0:29:13.880 --> 0:29:16.600 He was just capitalizing off of a year ago, right 0:29:16.600 --> 0:29:18.920 he was when he was so proud he would never stop. 0:29:19.320 --> 0:29:23.440 He did the same thing to capitalize off of it 0:29:23.480 --> 0:29:26.080 by denouncing it. Gee, I'm gonna tell you what I 0:29:26.120 --> 0:29:28.920 think he's doing kind of. I think he's separating himself 0:29:28.960 --> 0:29:32.440 from the criminal enterprise element of it, especially him being 0:29:32.480 --> 0:29:34.720 in all the ship that he isn't but that but 0:29:34.720 --> 0:29:40.120 but the rest of the message makes that not true. See, 0:29:40.120 --> 0:29:42.040 he's going to be in his own ship because as 0:29:42.080 --> 0:29:45.680 a rapper, when King Von died, rest his soul, young boy. 0:29:45.800 --> 0:29:48.960 So when he died, I mean you put out a 0:29:49.040 --> 0:29:51.520 rap record saying blah blah blah and his soul in 0:29:51.560 --> 0:29:54.320 his death telling people to go pick him up and 0:29:54.360 --> 0:29:58.480 see that ain't cool. Man. But that's my point back 0:29:58.480 --> 0:30:01.880 to the rappers, this is whe air. The conversation that 0:30:01.960 --> 0:30:07.880 you're projecting into the air can become real. Um, if 0:30:07.880 --> 0:30:11.400 you're popping it at a high level, niggas may test 0:30:11.480 --> 0:30:15.880 what you're saying. So even the robbery part with me 0:30:15.920 --> 0:30:17.800 and you are on opposite side of the street where 0:30:17.800 --> 0:30:19.520 you're like people just being hooligans, and I'm like, man, 0:30:19.520 --> 0:30:25.400 people people, even if they're not admitting it, like let 0:30:25.400 --> 0:30:27.120 me fix that, brokers. I don't want you to think 0:30:27.120 --> 0:30:29.520 I'm I don't want nobody to think I'm insenstive towards 0:30:29.600 --> 0:30:34.160 my community. Still, it's nothing wrong with other black people 0:30:34.920 --> 0:30:37.640 having success and feeling like where you feel. I don't 0:30:37.680 --> 0:30:39.840 think it's nothing wrong with that. I'm supposed to feel. 0:30:39.960 --> 0:30:41.800 I feel you can feel how you feel. But that's 0:30:41.800 --> 0:30:44.800 why also told nephew, like, don't do it. It ain't 0:30:44.800 --> 0:30:47.920 worth it because people doing bad and people in the 0:30:48.040 --> 0:30:51.200 fun the mood. They're not jealous of successful people. People 0:30:51.200 --> 0:30:54.560 are not jealous of successful people. They are feeling like 0:30:54.560 --> 0:30:57.920 they're the noted, the opportunity, and they wanted to because 0:30:58.440 --> 0:31:00.880 they want people and there's already to treat them a 0:31:00.920 --> 0:31:03.040 certain way. Man, we used to go husts. I used 0:31:03.080 --> 0:31:04.840 to hustle with a grip of PJS and the homies 0:31:04.840 --> 0:31:06.520 and all that. We would all go to Carson Mark 0:31:06.600 --> 0:31:09.600 boy Ship. I used to watch niggers from the projects 0:31:09.840 --> 0:31:13.719 by spend all their money on clothes just so they 0:31:13.720 --> 0:31:16.000 could look like money to not have no money in 0:31:16.040 --> 0:31:19.280 their pocket. Kill me that you mean to tell me 0:31:19.320 --> 0:31:21.640 that's not a level of trauma like to where you like, 0:31:21.760 --> 0:31:24.080 instead of having the money in my pocket that people 0:31:24.080 --> 0:31:26.880 are saying I don't have, I would rather have enough 0:31:26.920 --> 0:31:30.040 outfits on to where I always look like money without 0:31:30.040 --> 0:31:32.960 the money in my pocket. See Bengo. That's the difference 0:31:33.080 --> 0:31:36.160 right there, because, like I said, you don't get these 0:31:36.200 --> 0:31:39.480 same type of stories from the guy that just got 0:31:39.520 --> 0:31:44.280 the residency at the hospital, from the gun partner. Yeah, 0:31:44.560 --> 0:31:47.120 from the guy that just made partner at the law firm. 0:31:47.200 --> 0:31:49.360 You know, they're making millions of dollars a year in 0:31:49.400 --> 0:31:53.440 some cases, but they're not flaking that upstanding as wealth 0:31:53.480 --> 0:31:55.360 on them on themselves. I feel like you're saying, Peter, 0:31:55.680 --> 0:31:59.680 they're also not They're also not encroaching you know, dollars 0:31:59.800 --> 0:32:03.480 zero row until they're thirty five years old. They're they're 0:32:03.480 --> 0:32:06.560 they're coming out getting their first job in their late 0:32:06.600 --> 0:32:09.360 twenties to early thirties and pay and they have five 0:32:09.400 --> 0:32:12.080 six hundred grand in depth that they got to pay off. 0:32:12.120 --> 0:32:16.080 They're not hitting dollars zero until they're in their mid 0:32:16.280 --> 0:32:18.080 mid thirties. By that time, they have a whole different 0:32:18.080 --> 0:32:20.560 social circle. They've been buried in books, away from friends. 0:32:20.560 --> 0:32:23.840 They don't have a social life for twenty years. Like 0:32:24.040 --> 0:32:28.280 I'm not saying, hey, man, as a rapper, if you 0:32:28.320 --> 0:32:31.320 get some money, don't buy jury. Like I'm not even 0:32:31.320 --> 0:32:34.360 giving you that speech on the economics, Like that's another 0:32:34.360 --> 0:32:38.320 fucking podcast. I'm saying, don't go back to where you're 0:32:38.360 --> 0:32:41.520 from with that fucking j You are the success. The 0:32:41.680 --> 0:32:45.400 chain is not a proof anymore. I mean didn't like 0:32:46.000 --> 0:32:48.440 was it didn't like myb deep get jack for the 0:32:48.600 --> 0:32:51.920 chain at Queensbridge like twenty years ago. It's been going 0:32:52.000 --> 0:32:57.800 on for decades and decades. I think the world, the 0:32:57.840 --> 0:33:00.360 world as a whole, as a whole, darker world there 0:33:00.520 --> 0:33:02.280 was back then. But I think it's a lot of 0:33:02.280 --> 0:33:04.080 fun ship that's going on, and I think we need 0:33:04.120 --> 0:33:07.240 to pay attention not to get too much off this subject, 0:33:07.480 --> 0:33:10.760 but I think it all it's all relative. Did you 0:33:10.800 --> 0:33:14.480 see the new Illinois non detainable offenses beginning in January 0:33:14.560 --> 0:33:20.520 two thousand twenty three, Yeah, saw it. Aggravated battery, aggravated 0:33:20.560 --> 0:33:28.800 d u y, aggravated fleeing, arson, burglary, drug induced homicide, intimidation, kidnapping, robbery, 0:33:28.920 --> 0:33:32.480 second degree murder, threatening a public official. So that means 0:33:32.520 --> 0:33:35.480 I could say, I'm gonna kills. I could kidnap a 0:33:35.560 --> 0:33:38.320 motherfucking and to call this mom and tell him big 0:33:38.440 --> 0:33:41.080 if you don't have me thousand dollars over, I'm gonna 0:33:41.160 --> 0:33:43.840 kill his motherfucking and I can get let right off 0:33:43.880 --> 0:33:47.040 the same day. But that would that would be the 0:33:47.120 --> 0:33:49.600 same way if you had Bella not I don't think 0:33:49.600 --> 0:33:54.520 that that's I believe that that law is you don't 0:33:54.520 --> 0:33:56.800 even be you don't even detained. You'll be issued a 0:33:56.840 --> 0:34:01.239 citation like a trashy say you in it that this 0:34:01.320 --> 0:34:03.640 is almost like some bird ship. Damn here we're coming up. 0:34:04.040 --> 0:34:08.280 It's not. It's not like that. Listen, Illinois is under 0:34:08.320 --> 0:34:11.879 a lot of attack right now. Right um, next ship 0:34:11.920 --> 0:34:20.000 we keep robbing. But again, even before we jump into that, right, uh, 0:34:20.080 --> 0:34:22.440 let me connect that. Right. So, I was talking to 0:34:22.480 --> 0:34:25.120 a hommy today. Shout out to the hommy. Um. I 0:34:25.160 --> 0:34:27.920 was talking to him today. I caught him on the phone. 0:34:27.960 --> 0:34:32.560 Hold up, let me tell you man, Chicago cool nigga? 0:34:32.840 --> 0:34:39.520 Uh uh god damn it. Anyway, I was talking to 0:34:39.520 --> 0:34:41.759 one of the hommies from Chicago today and we were 0:34:41.760 --> 0:34:44.800 talking about something. T I was saying. What I was saying, 0:34:44.840 --> 0:34:47.800 the term out, you know, is presented from call of 0:34:47.920 --> 0:34:52.520 duty and a lot of people, you know, he was 0:34:52.560 --> 0:34:55.759 having a conversation and it was a really big conversation 0:34:55.800 --> 0:34:58.640 that people reduced down into just something that's hip hop. Right. 0:34:58.640 --> 0:35:00.759 It was like he was saying, the turn OPT came 0:35:00.840 --> 0:35:03.799 from call of duty and blah blah blah, and that's 0:35:03.800 --> 0:35:06.279 how they started using it. But the the term is 0:35:06.400 --> 0:35:10.239 part of a greater conversation, right, that we are not 0:35:10.360 --> 0:35:15.120 just creating this ship like this is a representation of 0:35:15.160 --> 0:35:18.400 the world we're in. Right, Like the boys in Chicago 0:35:18.440 --> 0:35:20.360 feel like they're at war. That's why they use the 0:35:20.400 --> 0:35:24.439 time trenches and in opposition or opponent, whatever you want 0:35:24.440 --> 0:35:27.560 to make it mean. But they're saying the conversation comes 0:35:27.600 --> 0:35:31.320 from the military, right. I was. I was telling my homie. 0:35:31.360 --> 0:35:33.920 I was like, this ain't a conversation of did op. 0:35:34.400 --> 0:35:37.080 Did Chicago bring the term op to hip hop? This 0:35:37.120 --> 0:35:40.240 is a conversation saying these boys ain't made up nothing 0:35:40.280 --> 0:35:43.359 that don't exist in the world today, and the fact 0:35:43.440 --> 0:35:47.839 that they feel like they're going through so much where 0:35:47.840 --> 0:35:49.759 they really feel like they're were I'm gonna tell you 0:35:49.800 --> 0:35:51.960 something that Change told me one day that really stuck 0:35:51.960 --> 0:35:55.200 in my head. He said at the height of my 0:35:55.280 --> 0:35:58.400 game banging when I was sixteen. I really felt like 0:35:58.440 --> 0:36:01.880 I've enlisted my life to my room and that was 0:36:01.960 --> 0:36:05.400 my duty to protect the hood with my life. Is 0:36:05.480 --> 0:36:08.160 need to be Yeah, but everybody came through there, we 0:36:08.280 --> 0:36:10.600 was gonna down, and they really felt like he was 0:36:10.640 --> 0:36:13.359 in service to his community. But but it's true, right, 0:36:13.400 --> 0:36:16.759 And people think it's about like a street sign, and 0:36:16.800 --> 0:36:19.160 I'm like, no, it's the people. They're no different than 0:36:19.160 --> 0:36:24.600 the American soldier, no different than the American soldier. Like 0:36:25.000 --> 0:36:27.279 I hear people tell me all the time, Oh glass man, 0:36:27.480 --> 0:36:29.520 how could you came bang? You know? And you don't 0:36:29.520 --> 0:36:32.160 own no property. Everybody and listened in the military their 0:36:32.200 --> 0:36:34.840 own property. Most people in the military don't own property. 0:36:35.280 --> 0:36:38.600 Most people leave out the military without owning property. They 0:36:38.640 --> 0:36:40.440 don't just give you a house because you signed up 0:36:40.480 --> 0:36:43.120 for the military. They house you in the military. When 0:36:43.160 --> 0:36:45.720 you leave, it on you again to buy a house. 0:36:45.880 --> 0:36:48.960 They have bills and all kinds of opportunities to help 0:36:49.000 --> 0:36:50.840 you buy a house. But you still don't get a 0:36:50.880 --> 0:36:54.960 house yet. You fighting over this land, right, and it's 0:36:55.200 --> 0:36:57.439 people don't get like I always say, it's a non 0:36:57.600 --> 0:37:00.200 fighter that don't get it because they don't you ask 0:37:00.239 --> 0:37:02.560 most people like, oh, man, I feel like this is 0:37:02.560 --> 0:37:05.359 about like, oh, they're gonna sell old blocking now, y'all 0:37:05.400 --> 0:37:07.719 fighting over apartment building that y'all don't own. You know, 0:37:07.840 --> 0:37:10.200 you don't fight over the fucking building. You fight over 0:37:10.239 --> 0:37:13.319 the people that live there. Like how are you tied 0:37:13.360 --> 0:37:18.279 to yourself? Is irrelevant? Like the mob right is there's 0:37:18.320 --> 0:37:21.799 no mob street right, but yet they still fight for 0:37:21.840 --> 0:37:24.720 each other and stand up for each other. It's nothing 0:37:24.760 --> 0:37:27.799 to do with that. The sign. The sign is just 0:37:27.840 --> 0:37:32.840 where we actually at, but when we somewhere else we don't. 0:37:32.880 --> 0:37:37.359 This is us, it represents us. So back to the 0:37:37.400 --> 0:37:44.359 thing you were saying, um right now, because you know, Illinois, 0:37:45.520 --> 0:37:49.520 primarily Chicago is so violent, you know, I mean sometimes 0:37:50.040 --> 0:37:52.600 you know the stuff we're hearing, we forget it's a 0:37:52.640 --> 0:37:55.920 greater city with a lot of ship not happening. I mean, 0:37:55.960 --> 0:37:58.600 we we want to believe that it's happening, but it's not. 0:37:58.640 --> 0:38:01.080 It's that's a very minor area where a lot of 0:38:01.080 --> 0:38:05.440 other ship is still motherfucker's going to jail. Actually a 0:38:05.440 --> 0:38:08.320 really beautiful city, of course, it is just like Los Angeles. 0:38:08.719 --> 0:38:12.520 It's more brent Woods, it's more brent Woods and hollywoods 0:38:12.520 --> 0:38:16.239 in Los Angeles than it is Watts or South Centrals. 0:38:16.280 --> 0:38:21.160 Those are small pieces of a huge Los Angeles city. 0:38:22.080 --> 0:38:24.279 I mean Los Angeles the city. You know, when you're 0:38:24.280 --> 0:38:27.520 really taking into account what actually is it. Proclaimer is 0:38:27.560 --> 0:38:32.200 in Los Angeles the city. Brentwood is in Los Angeles 0:38:32.200 --> 0:38:35.560 the city. Those are neighborhoods in the city of Los Angeles. 0:38:35.640 --> 0:38:38.840 They are not their own cities. Inglewood is is on city, 0:38:39.120 --> 0:38:42.000 Campton is is on city. But Los Angeles these places 0:38:42.040 --> 0:38:48.200 are in Watts is in Los Angeles, right, so Watches 0:38:48.239 --> 0:38:53.680 in Los Angeles. So all of these things, you know, 0:38:53.760 --> 0:38:56.040 you have people trying to figure out how to make 0:38:56.080 --> 0:38:58.920 the justice system the ideas. They're trying to figure out 0:38:58.920 --> 0:39:01.719 how to make the justice them just right. So bell 0:39:01.880 --> 0:39:06.400 is important because right if obviously we're behind on the 0:39:06.480 --> 0:39:09.640 motherfucking economic scale. You know, the majority of people that 0:39:09.680 --> 0:39:11.359 come from where we come from, we i mean, work 0:39:11.400 --> 0:39:14.439 four hundred years for free. So we're behind. So when 0:39:14.480 --> 0:39:17.680 we go to jail, you know, whether it's rightfully show 0:39:17.920 --> 0:39:21.239 or you know, or or falsely accused. If you don't 0:39:21.239 --> 0:39:25.240 have the money, you can't get out of jail unless 0:39:25.520 --> 0:39:29.160 the judge what oh are you right? So setting up 0:39:29.160 --> 0:39:32.759 a no cash bail system in Chicago. With the drill 0:39:32.800 --> 0:39:35.160 movement happening and wrapping, you see this rap ship going on, 0:39:35.640 --> 0:39:38.239 it could seem a little pergy. It seems like it's 0:39:38.520 --> 0:39:41.480 a bunch of virunce is gonna jump off. That's not 0:39:41.640 --> 0:39:44.400 what they're saying. They're not talking about aggregating assault with 0:39:44.520 --> 0:39:46.880 the weapon. They're not talking about the problems in that 0:39:46.960 --> 0:39:51.640 specific area that you hear those artists rap about. Yeah, 0:39:52.280 --> 0:39:53.920 you just read off the list of all the crimes, 0:39:53.960 --> 0:39:55.759 but the list is not none of those crimes old 0:39:55.800 --> 0:40:02.279 and that it's battery. Listen. Battery is a fight that 0:40:02.440 --> 0:40:06.879 was a fight with a weapon that aggravated no listen. 0:40:07.320 --> 0:40:12.719 Second degree murderer, threatening a public official, robbery, kidnapps. Ain't 0:40:12.719 --> 0:40:17.760 no motherfucking game member stress just reading them off. Kidnapping, robbery, murder, 0:40:18.520 --> 0:40:24.640 game members, kidnapping, that's not the main crying. Come on, man, Pete, 0:40:25.320 --> 0:40:27.160 how would you feel A be sat in the same 0:40:27.200 --> 0:40:30.760 community and I kidding up your mom? You see the police, 0:40:30.800 --> 0:40:32.600 come peep me a being. You see me six hours 0:40:32.640 --> 0:40:34.719 later sitting across the stoop looking at your ass when 0:40:34.760 --> 0:40:38.400 you look out the window. When is the reality is 0:40:38.520 --> 0:40:40.239 if they had the money, they would beil out and 0:40:40.280 --> 0:40:42.400 still do it. So that's why white people could kidnap 0:40:42.400 --> 0:40:44.839 your mama and get out of jail the same way 0:40:44.880 --> 0:40:47.280 the same day. Now they just jack up the bells 0:40:47.360 --> 0:40:49.400 so super high. That's why you'll see people. But if 0:40:49.400 --> 0:40:51.799 you have money. But if you have the money, you 0:40:51.840 --> 0:40:54.080 get right out because a lot of those people don't 0:40:54.080 --> 0:40:56.160 get bailed because they have so much money that perceives 0:40:56.200 --> 0:40:59.120 international flight risks. If you have a massive tax thing 0:40:59.239 --> 0:41:01.600 like if you oh million dollars in taxes, you're from Newport, 0:41:01.680 --> 0:41:04.280 you got a yacht that's registered offshore, you're not getting 0:41:04.280 --> 0:41:06.080 out of jail. But we need to break it. But 0:41:06.160 --> 0:41:08.799 we're not talking about the concept that's that far. We're 0:41:08.800 --> 0:41:11.600 saying the average person could commit kidnapping and get out 0:41:11.640 --> 0:41:14.759 of jail. Yet if you black and commit kidnapping, you 0:41:14.760 --> 0:41:18.799 can't get out of jail. She these are non entertainable offenses. 0:41:18.800 --> 0:41:22.560 Dog that sounds crazy to me, not not necessarily. Again, 0:41:22.640 --> 0:41:25.680 how it's being format is important, like most likely you'll 0:41:25.719 --> 0:41:28.600 be arrested, so you buy into the genuineness of this law. 0:41:29.160 --> 0:41:31.480 Because when I'm looking at I don't listen, Pete, I 0:41:31.520 --> 0:41:34.240 don't believe in right wings or left wings. I believe 0:41:34.400 --> 0:41:39.719 in we know there's no way justice could be just 0:41:39.840 --> 0:41:43.200 because it has to be always individual propaponent. Right, But 0:41:43.239 --> 0:41:47.680 I believe in engineering. Huh, But I believe in engineering. Yeah. 0:41:47.680 --> 0:41:50.160 But but engineering, I agree with that too. I believe 0:41:50.200 --> 0:41:53.520 in engineering too. But again it does need to be 0:41:53.600 --> 0:41:57.640 swayed completely opposite because it's miss way so bad. But 0:41:57.880 --> 0:42:02.719 you're okay, I think that I have an unvailed like 0:42:02.880 --> 0:42:07.120 what I think so like our diametric opposition is not 0:42:07.239 --> 0:42:10.239 as sure, you know what I meant to Since we 0:42:10.360 --> 0:42:13.440 are a real platform, man, I don't want to just 0:42:13.520 --> 0:42:16.160 put we need to research this a little bit more 0:42:16.200 --> 0:42:20.640 because I can't imagine. That's I've listened to a lot 0:42:20.680 --> 0:42:24.120 of lawyers do stuff all since last week. Last week. 0:42:24.280 --> 0:42:26.040 But that's why I wasn't gonna get all the way 0:42:26.080 --> 0:42:31.680 into it. But I know, as a component of what's 0:42:31.719 --> 0:42:35.280 going on in the Chicago rap scene, right, we really 0:42:35.280 --> 0:42:38.280 see this This is grand issue of Chicago having problems, 0:42:38.360 --> 0:42:40.839 and now this is a purge all where everybody gonna 0:42:40.840 --> 0:42:45.439 go out and commit kidnappings That just ain't really wasn't 0:42:45.440 --> 0:42:48.360 about to happen. But I do think there's an issue 0:42:49.160 --> 0:42:54.600 where if somebody who is economically privileged committed kidnapping, right, 0:42:54.600 --> 0:42:57.879 and then somebody poor committed kidnapping and one person can 0:42:57.880 --> 0:43:02.720 get out of jail, that ship ain't right. And if 0:43:02.760 --> 0:43:04.719 if that don't make sixty y'all, I don't know what 0:43:04.760 --> 0:43:07.200 to say. There's no reason that you should have money 0:43:07.520 --> 0:43:09.239 and money gets you out of jail when we're in 0:43:09.320 --> 0:43:12.360 jail for the same thing. I understand that. But but 0:43:12.480 --> 0:43:16.680 typically bills are are established based off personal finances, and 0:43:19.040 --> 0:43:20.840 now they're not. And this comes from somebody went to 0:43:20.880 --> 0:43:24.399 jail lot. No they're not. They can raise your bill 0:43:24.400 --> 0:43:27.120 if they think you have money, like yes, if you 0:43:27.320 --> 0:43:29.919 can get in front of you, but bill's bills usually 0:43:29.960 --> 0:43:32.879 are already set, like do my favorite charge thir Team 0:43:32.920 --> 0:43:36.719 five forty one was possession of PCP for sales That 0:43:36.800 --> 0:43:43.160 motherfucker every time was twenty okay, so then or temper 0:43:43.160 --> 0:43:45.960 center start right? Yeah? Yeah, temper cent. You saw the bond, right, 0:43:45.960 --> 0:43:52.319 you make however determinology goes right. But I think we're 0:43:52.320 --> 0:43:55.560 looking at the Chicago rap scene and making that an 0:43:55.600 --> 0:44:02.759 overall issue with Chicago versus probably Ingustice in racial profiling 0:44:02.840 --> 0:44:05.799 is way worse than that. So I think that the 0:44:05.880 --> 0:44:08.600 goal or the look of the because I do agree 0:44:08.640 --> 0:44:11.200 with you, P, I don't funk with none of that ship. 0:44:11.280 --> 0:44:14.040 I always think it's a scheme going on. If the 0:44:14.120 --> 0:44:16.399 left wing got something going on, it's a scheme back there. 0:44:16.840 --> 0:44:19.520 And the scheme because I was actually saying this right, 0:44:19.560 --> 0:44:23.480 because if that was the case, most judges could just 0:44:23.520 --> 0:44:25.920 oh are you, Like if we're gonna leave it to 0:44:25.960 --> 0:44:30.279 the discretion of the judge now even just oh are you, 0:44:30.800 --> 0:44:36.440 release you on your own recognition. But it's interesting that 0:44:36.480 --> 0:44:40.880 the week after a federal law was passed to hire 0:44:41.040 --> 0:44:45.400 eighties seven thousand new federal I R S agents, and 0:44:45.520 --> 0:44:48.080 jobs were posted by the I R S saying you 0:44:48.120 --> 0:44:50.000 need to be able to carry a gun and shoot 0:44:50.000 --> 0:44:53.960 to kill. That the week after that, an attack on 0:44:54.080 --> 0:44:56.840 local law enforcement and like the second largest, third largest 0:44:56.840 --> 0:45:00.279 city in the country happens to happen, Like there's there's 0:45:00.320 --> 0:45:04.560 this expansion of federal law enforcement movement happening. It's being 0:45:04.600 --> 0:45:06.840 pushed by the same people who are like defund with 0:45:06.880 --> 0:45:10.440 the local police. You can see like the replacement for 0:45:10.520 --> 0:45:17.600 federalities movement taking place pretty easily. Yeah, the same people 0:45:17.600 --> 0:45:20.759 are saying both things at the same time. Sure, look 0:45:20.760 --> 0:45:23.959 at certain way Government's a thought for another podcast. But yeah, 0:45:24.000 --> 0:45:29.239 so um, I think, like I said as a rapper, right, 0:45:29.320 --> 0:45:36.000 it's not that tough. You just have to You can't 0:45:36.040 --> 0:45:41.279 just come flaws on poor people. So people, so so 0:45:41.880 --> 0:45:44.160 P and b Rock them want to go have some one. 0:45:45.760 --> 0:45:47.319 I don't know how. I don't. I don't quite know. 0:45:47.600 --> 0:45:50.040 But this is a part of a greater conversation. I don't. 0:45:50.040 --> 0:45:51.440 I don't. I don't know what happened with P and B. 0:45:51.600 --> 0:45:55.720 Like I I have no idea, Like I'm just praying, 0:45:56.239 --> 0:45:58.280 you know, because get through you know all this stuff 0:45:58.560 --> 0:46:04.759 real quick, can you. We We got a little murky 0:46:04.880 --> 0:46:10.080 earlier in the show talking about the gentleman from Savannah 0:46:10.680 --> 0:46:17.719 who publicly decrypted himself, unencrypted himself, unencrypted himself like that, 0:46:18.120 --> 0:46:20.640 and I saw, I'm gonna starting telling people I'm encrypted. 0:46:21.640 --> 0:46:25.680 I'm gonna say this criminal warning they got encrypted. So 0:46:27.360 --> 0:46:30.120 with all the background discussion of neighborhoods and all that 0:46:30.160 --> 0:46:35.840 stuff from him, is there a background discussion that we 0:46:35.920 --> 0:46:41.879 know of this guy. No, So pnb Rock is not 0:46:42.360 --> 0:46:44.600 pnb Rock. I mean, don't get me wrong. He made 0:46:45.239 --> 0:46:48.000 some level of rap where you know, we can have 0:46:48.080 --> 0:46:52.399 some kind of criminal activities to it. But so right now, 0:46:52.400 --> 0:46:56.360 when I'm catching loosely again, I have very little to 0:46:56.440 --> 0:46:59.800 no facts outside he got shot at Roscoe's in Englewood. 0:47:00.600 --> 0:47:04.600 Is the slight thing is a robbery. Now, he wasn't 0:47:04.640 --> 0:47:06.920 the one trying to come out and like aligned with 0:47:07.040 --> 0:47:09.440 sixties and that kind of stuff that I don't know, like, 0:47:09.480 --> 0:47:11.560 I don't even I think he is kind of connected 0:47:11.560 --> 0:47:13.440 in some streets, but I don't think that's not how 0:47:13.480 --> 0:47:17.279 you were talking about. It was a little hard, a 0:47:17.280 --> 0:47:20.200 little bit. This is just about rapping and people feeling 0:47:20.280 --> 0:47:22.319 like being a rapper is hard, and it's not. What 0:47:22.400 --> 0:47:26.360 makes it hard is the actions, the things you do, 0:47:26.760 --> 0:47:30.440 and the decisions you make, right, the things that come 0:47:30.480 --> 0:47:33.200 out of your mouth, excuse me, and and the actions 0:47:33.200 --> 0:47:37.400 you take. I don't know enough about pnb rock situation, right, 0:47:38.360 --> 0:47:40.560 I don't like so I can't even talk about that. 0:47:40.600 --> 0:47:42.960 But this just made me want to talk about what 0:47:43.080 --> 0:47:44.919 it is like being a rapper, like a young Dolf 0:47:45.040 --> 0:47:47.480 right where you have all of these songs and it's 0:47:47.520 --> 0:47:50.000 super hyper violet, you know what I I mean, And it's 0:47:50.040 --> 0:47:54.000 crazy and violence happens, and we're like, oh man, it's 0:47:54.040 --> 0:47:55.960 tough being a rapper. But that's like if you don't 0:47:56.040 --> 0:47:59.920 talk about these things specifically, right, you know a lot 0:48:00.040 --> 0:48:02.600 to the energy we invite in. You know what I'm saying, 0:48:02.640 --> 0:48:07.760 like like when I make it rap songs, I'm really careful, 0:48:07.800 --> 0:48:10.440 which would sound crazy to everybody because everybody would think 0:48:10.440 --> 0:48:12.920 that I'm not. But if you listen to what I'm saying, 0:48:13.480 --> 0:48:16.400 like I'm really careful what I say, like I'm a 0:48:16.440 --> 0:48:19.319 real hundred and seventeen street nigger, you don't hear me 0:48:19.400 --> 0:48:22.160 this and my enemies and rap songs like they are 0:48:22.200 --> 0:48:24.839 already glasses low, so they already know I already got 0:48:24.840 --> 0:48:26.759 to be glasses low and deal with everything I did 0:48:26.760 --> 0:48:29.640 in the pass if they see me. So now you 0:48:29.640 --> 0:48:32.040 know what I mean. I'm not trying to add Jaman 0:48:32.200 --> 0:48:34.520 as a rapper. I'm not saying, Hey, I'm gonna make 0:48:34.560 --> 0:48:37.279 the whole world chat fuck you in your neighborhood, your funk, 0:48:37.320 --> 0:48:42.799 your game? Is it fair to say, While perhaps it's 0:48:42.840 --> 0:48:46.960 not hard to be a rapper and not get yourself, 0:48:47.719 --> 0:48:50.919 you know, in an adversarial position, it might be hard 0:48:50.960 --> 0:48:57.279 to be a rapidly successful rapper without using those cheat 0:48:57.360 --> 0:49:01.040 codes for marketing so to speak. If know, but I 0:49:01.160 --> 0:49:05.000 think you call them cheat colds. That's that's what they are. 0:49:06.200 --> 0:49:09.880 They are cheat colds. If you it's hard to be 0:49:09.920 --> 0:49:14.000 a rapper the old fashioned way. If you go to 0:49:14.080 --> 0:49:17.839 a community with no jewlio, what come out your mouth 0:49:17.920 --> 0:49:21.600 gott to shine? M hm. You know what I'm saying. 0:49:21.840 --> 0:49:24.759 When you go to the community, it's hard to be 0:49:24.840 --> 0:49:27.360 weedy and come out your mouth and exist in a 0:49:27.400 --> 0:49:30.200 place where it's strangers and people that gotta funk with 0:49:30.239 --> 0:49:32.680 you and funk with you. Now, they gotta funk with 0:49:32.680 --> 0:49:35.280 you because whatever coming out your mouth gotta come legit 0:49:35.400 --> 0:49:37.719 and feel right for them to funk with you or 0:49:37.800 --> 0:49:40.520 to think you're successful or valuable. So this is why 0:49:40.560 --> 0:49:42.120 we don't funk with you. This is why we're not 0:49:42.160 --> 0:49:53.480 gonna miss and twenty change. That's a hundreds of outfit. 0:49:53.600 --> 0:49:57.040 I just cheated. Now I don't have to say nothing. 0:49:58.480 --> 0:50:03.239 I literally got everything that fast. Not to mention there 0:50:03.400 --> 0:50:06.000 is a value in it, because you went somewhere where 0:50:06.000 --> 0:50:10.640 people were starving, right and nobody to It's what I 0:50:10.719 --> 0:50:13.360 go to the hill with my chains on. They are saying, 0:50:13.520 --> 0:50:17.840 in so many words, I am so respecting and people 0:50:17.960 --> 0:50:21.960 fear me so much that they will not remove my 0:50:22.080 --> 0:50:23.880 ship because you don't say that when you go to 0:50:23.920 --> 0:50:25.680 the mall, if you go to the baby Center, you're 0:50:25.680 --> 0:50:26.920 not gonna say I wore are my chains in the 0:50:26.920 --> 0:50:29.160 Beverley Center because you know, ain't nobody over that mother 0:50:29.360 --> 0:50:32.959 starving trying to take them. So again, there's a there's 0:50:32.960 --> 0:50:37.520 a there's points in going into other people's community, or 0:50:37.560 --> 0:50:39.960 going into communities where people are poor at and having 0:50:40.680 --> 0:50:44.879 jewelry worth more than the ouse. There there's there's there's 0:50:44.960 --> 0:50:47.919 there's there's there's points with the fans. And that's why 0:50:47.960 --> 0:50:50.840 I'm saying it's another thing like if I make a 0:50:50.960 --> 0:50:54.680 record and I'm dis in an enemy hood and I'm saying, hey, 0:50:54.680 --> 0:50:57.759 funk this community, there's a point in it. It's like 0:50:57.920 --> 0:51:01.120 that nigga wold he don't give a fun When Draco 0:51:01.239 --> 0:51:06.000 dis all Inglewood, you look like, holy shit, you. I mean, 0:51:06.239 --> 0:51:10.560 it's real motherfucking crips and and and nigga crips that 0:51:10.640 --> 0:51:15.600 beef with Inglewood. Niggas that would not do that because 0:51:16.200 --> 0:51:18.200 we would all look at that at some level of 0:51:18.320 --> 0:51:24.480 suicide publicly making that Nipsey is us sick, So he 0:51:24.640 --> 0:51:26.720 not gonna get on no record and say that ship 0:51:27.600 --> 0:51:33.920 you know that should go. So I agree, that's actually 0:51:33.920 --> 0:51:36.560 what it is. A lot of rappers are taking the 0:51:36.640 --> 0:51:43.480 cheek codes right and sometimes they backfire. Know what I'm 0:51:43.480 --> 0:51:45.680 saying now, I'm not saying that's what I'm on pnb Rock. 0:51:45.760 --> 0:51:48.759 I don't know. I don't know. I just feel bad 0:51:48.800 --> 0:51:52.160 for me, you know what I'm saying. But I will 0:51:52.239 --> 0:51:58.320 say this. If it's true that his old lady posted 0:51:58.440 --> 0:52:03.480 that picture, you know what I'm saying, and it was 0:52:03.520 --> 0:52:07.080 at the location you was at, that's a no note 0:52:07.080 --> 0:52:11.480 for sure. M hmm. Fuck beef just because you know 0:52:11.600 --> 0:52:14.600 you got something that people could pay their rent off. 0:52:14.880 --> 0:52:16.759 Still you look like you want to sleep. You got 0:52:16.800 --> 0:52:20.480 something that you don't always say that whatever blink because 0:52:20.520 --> 0:52:23.719 you're blinking a really slow motion. But that's all been 0:52:23.760 --> 0:52:28.600 doing for the last years though, like well I would. 0:52:29.840 --> 0:52:32.759 That's what it is, though, Pete taking that cheat cold, 0:52:34.200 --> 0:52:37.840 that cheat cold is dangerous. That's what's hard for rappers. 0:52:38.000 --> 0:52:40.959 Rappers who take that cheet cold. You wanna this whole 0:52:41.000 --> 0:52:43.800 communities and get the get the fame for the old 0:52:43.840 --> 0:52:47.160 he died, all of them niggers come with something. You 0:52:47.160 --> 0:52:51.200 want to wear a quarter may not work for jewry 0:52:51.239 --> 0:52:54.799 report people that it may come with something. All this 0:52:54.880 --> 0:52:57.320 ship may come with something. All of these risks you 0:52:57.480 --> 0:53:02.239 take may come with something. What I'm saying, And that's 0:53:02.280 --> 0:53:04.960 what I think makes it hard being a rapper because 0:53:04.960 --> 0:53:08.000 you don't gotta do none of this ship. You know what, man, 0:53:08.360 --> 0:53:12.480 I just um personally if I had to do all 0:53:12.520 --> 0:53:15.280 over again with the raided, none of my kids lost Angeles. 0:53:17.120 --> 0:53:18.719 So I don't know why you act like this ship 0:53:18.840 --> 0:53:22.160 is in like Cleveland, they robbing, motherfucker's no man, But 0:53:22.520 --> 0:53:24.960 you take your broke ads down to Cleveland with a 0:53:25.040 --> 0:53:27.719 hundred thousand dollar chain, they might chop your head off. No, 0:53:27.840 --> 0:53:29.640 I think that's what any city as far as that. 0:53:29.760 --> 0:53:33.680 But I'm gonna tell you what's funny. It difficult. What 0:53:33.760 --> 0:53:36.240 makes an extra difficult, bro with the l A element 0:53:36.320 --> 0:53:40.480 is this, You got the gangs evolved. It's gangs in Cleveland, 0:53:40.960 --> 0:53:43.160 not like it was out here. Bro, what's different? They 0:53:43.160 --> 0:53:46.120 don't shoot each other. No, it's a little different here. 0:53:46.200 --> 0:53:51.279 Just the politics and everything. You know what's funny. I 0:53:51.400 --> 0:53:54.439 hear more non gang members in the l A talk 0:53:54.520 --> 0:53:57.000 about the what they help politics you'll be talking about 0:53:57.080 --> 0:54:02.600 it is because everything that has driving what's the policies 0:54:02.719 --> 0:54:06.319 in Los Angeles? For games? What's the policy? What can 0:54:06.400 --> 0:54:09.200 I do in Wichhood? Oh I can't come on the 0:54:09.239 --> 0:54:11.120 show because of this, this and that, or I can't 0:54:11.120 --> 0:54:13.200 do this because of this. I always I don't know 0:54:13.239 --> 0:54:17.480 about the Let's get some clarity on these policies and 0:54:17.480 --> 0:54:20.520 then I'm gonna do another podcast about policy. Pete, you've 0:54:20.520 --> 0:54:22.320 been in l A your whole life. What is a 0:54:22.480 --> 0:54:27.800 policy that you must follow? Me personally, I'm you, I 0:54:28.920 --> 0:54:32.400 don't know what policies niggas be talking about that you 0:54:32.440 --> 0:54:36.560 said politics, what policies must l A niggas follow. I 0:54:36.600 --> 0:54:38.960 think there's a perception like when I was like, I 0:54:39.280 --> 0:54:41.840 lived in Oakland and oh four or five and I 0:54:41.880 --> 0:54:44.120 was up there a lot and O six too, and 0:54:44.160 --> 0:54:46.759 it didn't have the same feel as it did down here. 0:54:47.000 --> 0:54:49.480 It is not only worse than the Bay, Yeah, but 0:54:49.520 --> 0:54:51.800 I'm saying it didn't have the same feel. It was different. 0:54:52.480 --> 0:54:55.399 I don't know what different. Motherfucker's get killed in the Bay. 0:55:00.040 --> 0:55:04.279 It like to me, it's it's more like you like 0:55:04.320 --> 0:55:07.760 you talk about the beef with sixties and eight trades 0:55:07.880 --> 0:55:11.840 going back to I don't know when you know, to 0:55:12.080 --> 0:55:15.360 like some guy shot somebody else back in like eighty 0:55:15.440 --> 0:55:24.000 one or something like that. That's different. It's communities in 0:55:24.080 --> 0:55:27.600 Oakland that have been warned since the fucking beginning of time. 0:55:29.239 --> 0:55:32.360 This country has been in the Cold War that with 0:55:32.520 --> 0:55:38.360 Russia since the beginning of time. Right now, Ukraine and 0:55:38.440 --> 0:55:40.680 Russia have been beef in like five months and it's 0:55:40.719 --> 0:55:45.680 thousands of motherfucker's getting knocked down. Listen, we gotta stop 0:55:45.719 --> 0:55:49.879 with the policy talk. There's no fucking policies, take some 0:55:50.360 --> 0:55:54.000 localize some creep stuff and taking on an international skill 0:55:54.040 --> 0:55:56.560 and compared to all those places. But it's funny that 0:55:56.640 --> 0:55:59.680 you don't think it's the same. It's funny that you 0:56:00.080 --> 0:56:02.560 Russia and Ukraine is different than cities and their trades. 0:56:02.840 --> 0:56:09.120 What are they fighting over? Still? I think I don't know, Nigga, 0:56:09.160 --> 0:56:11.640 don't know what did we fight? The Tally Band nine 0:56:11.640 --> 0:56:14.359 eleven was the other day. This is the twenty This 0:56:14.440 --> 0:56:19.120 is the twenty one anniversary that just passed yesterday of 0:56:19.920 --> 0:56:23.520 the Tally Band, right, Tally ban bombing the towers? What 0:56:23.680 --> 0:56:27.200 the fund are we fighting them over? What? Listen? We 0:56:27.400 --> 0:56:31.560 just knocked down the main nigga. A couple of days ago, 0:56:32.200 --> 0:56:35.120 Biden did the whole press conference like, yeah, you niggas 0:56:35.160 --> 0:56:38.319 fun with America. This is what's gonna happen. Twenty years later, 0:56:41.280 --> 0:56:44.760 Obama knockdown Being Ladden, who was like just the mascot 0:56:44.760 --> 0:56:46.840 of they movement. He wasn't even the main nigga. He 0:56:46.880 --> 0:56:49.919 was just the mascot of the movement about seven years ago, 0:56:50.040 --> 0:56:53.040 eight years ago, I don't know. It wasn't that. It 0:56:53.120 --> 0:56:56.120 was ten plus years after the ship started. Right now, 0:56:56.480 --> 0:56:58.920 we've been at it with the Tally Band for longer 0:56:58.960 --> 0:57:06.279 than twenty years over one situation. What's different? Are they 0:57:06.320 --> 0:57:10.399 better than us? You're saying that because I resonate more 0:57:10.520 --> 0:57:13.120 with my community, the niggas that's around me and the 0:57:13.160 --> 0:57:15.840 people I started with, more than people resonate with the 0:57:15.920 --> 0:57:19.040 whole big world, the whole big country. First of all, 0:57:20.600 --> 0:57:23.200 the reason we had a war with, the reason why 0:57:23.280 --> 0:57:25.760 we had to get rid of being lotting Man was 0:57:25.800 --> 0:57:27.960 he was a terrorist. He was a well known terrorist. 0:57:28.080 --> 0:57:30.040 What the fund do that mean? No, he was a 0:57:30.080 --> 0:57:36.840 well known terrorist. What do you mean on a large 0:57:36.840 --> 0:57:41.680 amount of the world's hera when came from him. Look, 0:57:41.680 --> 0:57:46.760 at this nigga lyon now you just up? Yes, am 0:57:46.760 --> 0:57:53.120 I making other people directly? That's in it's indirectly A yeah. 0:57:53.400 --> 0:57:56.560 There there was a lot of like the term narco terrorism, 0:57:56.640 --> 0:57:58.840 but he had independent Saudi money that I think was 0:57:58.840 --> 0:58:02.880 getting washed through Africana. Any poppy so like that. That 0:58:02.920 --> 0:58:05.240 is a pretty convoluted thing. But there's a right trying 0:58:05.240 --> 0:58:07.120 to stop the air. That was That was the war 0:58:07.200 --> 0:58:11.400 on drugs. So we had to we needed to settle 0:58:11.440 --> 0:58:16.360 to China at a certain price. I'm not funking with 0:58:16.440 --> 0:58:18.479 you said, why are you always getting when the white 0:58:18.480 --> 0:58:24.840 people do it? Good?
