00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: place called the Booker Basement somewhere down and then they

41

Speaker 1: and it keeps clicking, okay clicking, but you do protect

60
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: the watch. Some people like to put their watching the socks.

00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: That's a little Rick, So let's make some him and

62

00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: some get somebody, yo. But I'm not gonna lie. This

65
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: is the first time like I've seen like l a

66
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: look like Miami right now, like you got you. I

67
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 1: see Smitty running around, I see Zoey do as, I

68
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: see my home girl bring the Haitians out, so pries like, um,

69
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: you know, being in this game legendary. One of the

70
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: things that I just saw was Lego say they were, uh,

71
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: it's a day of the most legendary three man group ever, right,

72
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: And immediately I thought of First, I thought of the

73
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: food is obviously, but then I thought of the locks,

74
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: right because I said, damn three men who maybe they

75
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: got well technically, I don't know if they're going back

76
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: that far. Yeah, I don't think they're going back that.

77
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: When you think of the legendary three people group, foodies

78
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 1: have to be the number one. Whether you say accolades

79
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: or you say just you know, what do you think?

80
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 1: I can't talk about ourselves, but I could tell you

81
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 1: if you asked me, Well, I think it's to put

82
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: us aside. I mean, obviously, look you know what Clef Lauren.

83
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 1: I mean, he's an amazing artists. But I never talked

84
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 1: about myself, so it's weird for me to talk about

85
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 1: what we did. This we did, Yeah we sold twenty

86
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: million records. Yeah we did this. We didn't. I'll pick

87
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: you up, don't worry about it, keep it going. But

88
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 1: for me, if you ask me who's my favorite three legendary,

89
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: be careful prods because I don't know where you're gonna go. Great,

90
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 1: let's speak. What are you going with this? Who's your

91
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: three men? Three three persons? Three person with three miles?

92
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: I gotta give it a run DMC. But I don't

93
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: agree with run DMC because let me tell you one

94
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 1: you think of two man, I think run DMC. Sho man. No, No,

95
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:17,600
Speaker 1: Justin is important anybody. God bless his soul, rest in peace.

96
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 1: When he passed away, Run DMC was never the same

97
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 1: after that. No, I want to agree with you, but

98
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:29,720
Speaker 1: I just can't college run DMC as a three You

99
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: say that, I see it's like a two man with

100
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: the guy in the bathrond because never really talked when

101
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: you like you compare it to the Fujis, or you

102
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: compare it to Amigos to you as a part of

103
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,679
Speaker 1: n w A. Right, and at first he was really talked.

104
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 1: Eventually I'm saying, but ex Republic enemy the great thing.

105
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: J masson, J Bro. If you know the history of

106
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: hip hop before run DMC, you gotta remember how the

107
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: hip I've all started. It started off. They're taking a

108
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 1: little the break part of the R and B records, right,

109
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: and so you had Grand Master Flash that we went

110
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: on the constume and all that they had. The band

111
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: J Master Jay technically was the band. He brought that

112
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: DJ Elliman so he flipped a whole that B boy

113
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: style adidis no shoelist everything. He shifted the whole. Bro. Listen,

114
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: It's very difficult to see one artist or group shift

115
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: the culture. I've seen it now. I've seen on dm CD.

116
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 1: But I was a kid, But I've seen that ship

117
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: happened to us personally, the Fuji's when we did our

118
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: first album because we were stuck between seeing life. You

119
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 1: always either want to be the first or the last.

120
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: You never want to be in the middle. Now we

121
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: talk a Columbia columbiad. So on the first album. We

122
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,559
Speaker 1: were influenced by Leading Is the New Schools Bulls, Nickins Basic.

123
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: It was that like smooth we ain't got so we

124
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: was on that. I think, I'm sorry, y'all. Yeah, yeah,

125
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: let's go. So when we did the first album, we

126
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: were on that zone. So we were in the middle, right,

127
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: So by the time we dropped, we're getting towards the

128
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: end of that cycle. We never forget. Man, when I

129
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: knew we were shot in the head, so get shot

130
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: in the head meeting, not literally, but me like, it

131
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 1: felt like it felt like, yo, we were dead on

132
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: a rifle. The first single, I'm still not clear, like

133
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: the first single we put out, it was good or

134
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: not good. So we had the first single called Booftbox, right,

135
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: and it was like all this crazy ship right wait,

136
00:08:54,240 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: boot was the biggest. So I'm saying, so this is

137
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: the very first album. So remember Columbia. Remember this this

138
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: um product manage name Tyres Harris. I do remember the name.

139
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 1: She was nas Okay. So we because we were Haitian.

140
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: You know, they're like, yo, these Haitian kids got goats

141
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 1: and all that. So we were like the step shot.

142
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: So the woman never really gave us no love, but

143
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 1: nas Elmatic was like that kid in the building, like

144
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,079
Speaker 1: the greatest right, So by default Tyrese has to deal

145
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: with us, and she's, man, I gotta deal with these

146
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: kids and all that. So we go to the radio station,

147
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: college radio station, and we're going to play our single.

148
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: What single was this? The booth single? So we're sitting

149
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 1: outside and there's an artist in the studio dropping his

150
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,599
Speaker 1: new single is a big gul I'm gonna tell you

151
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 1: how to hold up because that's that whole right right.

152
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: So I'm sitting there, me, Cleff and Lauren and Tyson

153
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,079
Speaker 1: right and this artist is like, yeah, you know what

154
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,199
Speaker 1: he don't understand and then he played his record. Right

155
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 1: when I heard the record, I looked at Cliff, I said, yo,

156
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: new movie and clear that mean with that, like yo,

157
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: I didn't want to go in the booth to play

158
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: the record anymore. It was your man, buck shot follow me.

159
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 1: Remember he switched the whole He switched the whole thing back.

160
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 1: And then Nas came right after that, right Atmatic after that,

161
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 1: so we was really aggressive and everybody just slowed the ship,

162
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: laid back big and came in all that ship. Right.

163
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: So we got this album. We got to promote that's dated.

164
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,559
Speaker 1: M hm. So the thing so sorry, because I want

165
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: the fans to follow what you're saying. When he's saying, David,

166
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 1: you're saying that this is music that you recording. Sonically,

167
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: it's not it's old. It's old. Second, because the sound

168
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 1: and the vibe just died. And this is the first album.

169
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: Was the first album when before it came out a

170
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 1: year prior to that. I'm going back to what you're saying,

171
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: how long did they record that? So I think things

172
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: like this, we got signed whatever year it was that

173
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: we got signed, and so the album didn't drop, so

174
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: like a year and a half two years later, which

175
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: was normal back then, which was normally people just you know,

176
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: created drop, right, So you gotta remember. So now we're

177
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 1: coming in the era of Snoop seven, right, So we're

178
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: coming in that whole noted by natures kind of like

179
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: starting up, fade out a little, you know what I'm saying.

180
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: And you guys are from New Jersey, so that was

181
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: like comparison at first, right, was still noted by nature, correct,

182
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: do you guys from Brooklyn, Jersey? But I mean it

183
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 1: was all of us in the area, So it was

184
00:11:54,640 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 1: us like Lord of the Underground was a lot of

185
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: it was that whole type of that whole thing, you

186
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But we got caught out there,

187
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 1: so we were like, yo, and the label was like,

188
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 1: you guys gonna have to figure this ship out. Like

189
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: if this ship doesn't work, wrap for you guys. So

190
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: they're like, go promote the ship. So we knew the

191
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: album was done. I knew that. So we're like, look,

192
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: the only thing we got going for ourselves, we won't

193
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: put a motherfucking show on. And that's what kept us alive.

194
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 1: It's the show because we know we had Lauren who

195
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: could sing anything, some gangster ship and make it sound

196
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 1: beautiful because auto tune was not popular back then. So

197
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: back then when the person was a singer, there was

198
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,719
Speaker 1: actually a real singer. Is that what you're getting to

199
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: prof I'm getting my ball because it's true though, Like yeah, yeah,

200
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 1: there was no order tune back there. I mean, I

201
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,679
Speaker 1: don't know if it was better or not, but there

202
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 1: was no order tune. It was kind of like singing

203
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 1: you're off key, sing until you back and you can't.

204
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: You can't, you can't, you can't. So but we knew

205
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: she was that chick when it king just singing. So

206
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: we had the band and we were just ripping the

207
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: shows and no, no, because that's so amazing. Like I

208
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: recognized I know you personally, but I recognized you from

209
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,079
Speaker 1: off top from this interview. How humble you are, right,

210
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: But at the same time, do you know that this

211
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 1: Foodie's was probably that that was like the greatest, like

212
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: it was some of the greatest moments in hip hop

213
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 1: because of your transition. What I mean by that was

214
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: you had like the Queen of England bumping the Foodie's

215
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: at one point, you had, like you know, just people

216
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: who just were supposed to denounce hip hop. What we say,

217
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,679
Speaker 1: I'm working with the fujis that that would look like, yeah,

218
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: I was almost not black, like at one point it wasn't.

219
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 1: It wasn't the Queen with Princess Diana. You know, I got,

220
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,559
Speaker 1: I got it. I'm saying, like, you know, how do

221
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: you get you almost like you get that famous way

222
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: like like certain people like things black, like y'all, Like

223
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like you get certain people

224
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,079
Speaker 1: get like Blachael Jackson. People didn't look at Michael Jackson

225
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: like he was black. I know, we transcended, but that's

226
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: international music. International came like and then like you got

227
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: the Black Eye peas that that came after that. But

228
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: like the first people who was with international success. In

229
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: my opinion, my humble opinion was you guys, Yeah, without

230
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: feeling like it's sold out and without feeling like it's

231
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: sold out, I think it was was a key thing.

232
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 1: We were fortunate. We were very fortunate. It just the

233
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: music just spoke to everyone. It wasn't just you know,

234
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: and it was tough because you don't have that gangster

235
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: ship was popping back then. It was like so you

236

Speaker 1: the Dominican Republic, right, yeah, yeah, that's where you from. No,

326
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: I'm Puerto Rico, not too far if I'm right, Dominican,

327
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: Puerto Rican. You know, I'm never not claim no because

328
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 1: all my friends are Dominican, so I never You know,

329
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 1: it's cool and that it's close to hate and I'm

330
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 1: cool with all my friends. So it's just like I

331
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: just got Jackal in Dominican Public because we get to

332
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 1: see the Tupac movie and we got to see the

333
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:43,880
Speaker 1: sort you're that wasn't Oh, you gotta see it. One.

334
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: You gotta see it because it's history. I've been meaning

335
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 1: to see. Two. You have to see it because there's

336
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: different interpretations of people's lives. It's just like right now, Prius, right,

337
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: you come in in, you will see each other. I

338
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 1: see what the Cardier braceist. Those are very expensive, by

339
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 1: the way, people, I just want to throw that out

340
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: there with no ice. It's very expensive people. Right, So

341
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: he walks in. But now there's certain people who can

342
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 1: take the same interview and they can see a totally

343
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: different thing. They're not wrong, it's their interpretation. It's their

344
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: interpretation like me and you can have the same view,

345
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 1: but you can have a different outlook. So for people

346
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 1: who really worried around or really didn't understand hip hop,

347
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 1: I recommend you go and watch it. You know, it's

348
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: like even the Biggie Movie. Like a lot of people

349
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 1: who don't really salute the Biggie Movie as much, but

350
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: I feel like you should. I feel like I saw that.

351
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: I feel like the best movie is a Confistrate Colt.

352
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 1: That's what I think. The reason I haven't seen it,

353
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 1: I've been busy whatever Black I felt like the pop movie. See.

354
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: The thing is when people in people are trying to

355
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 1: make black stories, they like to take this little cookie

356
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 1: cutter and think like we can throw everything and just

357
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: wanted like take this sa peg and put it in

358
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: the circle. Right, can't do that. The comping worked perfectly

359
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: for what it was because there's a lot of dynamics

360
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 1: about it that made it work. Trade Que the success

361
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: that they had, it was a movement that's still relevant. Pock,

362
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 1: you're gonna make a story about POC, you can't do this.

363
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: You gotta go what makes him tick. Let's dude, this

364
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: is a black panther to the core. This dude red

365
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: he studied, So you gotta talk about the man and

366
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,879
Speaker 1: what made him to because he was a very complex dude.

367
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 1: Because one minute he's talking about this revolution and you know,

368
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: talking about black women, and the next minute he's made

369

Speaker 1: to go bust his guns. You know what I'm saying

370

465
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:28,240

467
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,800

00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 1: gonna back and forth. We're gonna back and forth, and

469
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 1: then finally they realize, oh, we're in the wrong session,

470
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 1: in the wrong studio. I think he's supposed to be

471
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 1: at record plan right, So as to think about the lead,

472
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: he goes, what's that? People like, what what he said?

473
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: What's that music in the background? So it was just

474
00:28:54,440 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: the instrumental yall, something I'm working on. I don't want

475
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 1: to get on that. So it was like I'm thinking myself,

476
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: all right, well, you can't believe I can't get like

477
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 1: because I was like, man, he said this to me.

478
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: He said, man, just let that nigga doing your bullshit.

479
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: We're gonna race the ship story, all right. So he

480
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 1: asked me what the records about what I'm telling him?

481
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: So he goes, all right, cool. So we're sitting there

482
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 1: waiting for him to do his ship. So music is

483
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 1: playing and like ten minutes he's like, I'm ready. So

484
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: now I ain't seen him write anything, so I'm like,

485
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 1: what the okay? So he goes to the studio and

486
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 1: the beat is playing and all we hear is yeah,

487
00:29:49,120 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 1: so hea is that? How does that? Thinking like what? Today?

488
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: He said, give me another track, and he goes, you're here, yeah,

492
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 1: On the fall track, it was everything that you hid

493
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:44,880

Speaker 1: roll Deep, you know, the bees and all that, and

523
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: it was just some riff hapfits, some bullshit. But obviously

524
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 1: we became cool afterwards. Right, So when old dirty bastard

Speaker 1: that time, I didn't get it. So but then my

548
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: manager was like, because my manager used to manage Jimmy.

549
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 1: I been when he was a producer, right before he

550
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,399
Speaker 1: started Interscool Records, because jim mat he was gonna sign

551
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 1: the Fujie's. That's why I know Jimmy. They just said

552
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 1: that mad nonchalant like come on, you gotta blast? Did

553
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: he just said his manager used to manage Jimmy. So

554
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: I was there with Jimmy started Interscoope get the because

555
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 1: the food. Don't went with Jimmy. I'm getting so schools

556
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,359
Speaker 1: right now, like right now, I'm like, I'm like this,

557
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 1: I'm really enjoyed. Continued, so so so um because I

558
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 1: have no idea how this ship. Yeah, you know, Jimmy

559
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 1: used to be a producer. I know that. I know that.

560
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:43,239
Speaker 1: I've seen him the fire once. I never producer, And

561
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 1: so he started he was engineer, the engineer exactly. Then

562
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: he started his label with Fields It no Ted Phild

563
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 1: Ted Phils with the big and that guy that just

564
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: see that. No, no, no, that's so anyway, So they

565
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,479
Speaker 1: started interscoopl and I think one of the as artists

566
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: they signed was pop. So Jimmy wanted to sign the Fuji's.

567
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:09,360
Speaker 1: That's why he signed Black Eyed Peas too, we said,

568
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 1: so we went with I felt like Rough Files would

569
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: have been the best choice for us, So I made

570
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: it a matter of fact. They gave us the least

571
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 1: amount of money. Rod foles On to give us a

572
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 1: buck twenty five. Jimmy wanted to give a six hundred.

573
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,320
Speaker 1: At that time, you talking about back when they weren't

574
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: like you know what I'm saying. So anyway, were so

575
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,839
Speaker 1: so Jimmy called me and he and my manager David

576
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,839
Speaker 1: Snoberg was like, I think you should. You may want

577
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: to put her on the Better Superstar. She looks okay,

578
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: because if he put her on there, he's more opt

579
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 1: to spend more money. Oh yeah, that makes sense because

580
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: I said, I can't get any one of the chicks anyway,

581
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 1: because it's either you get super hot chick or you

582
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: get one of his artists. So I put my on

583
00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:00,720
Speaker 1: it and the rest of his history like this get

584
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:06,799

Speaker 1: they're like, yo, we can't film the video right now.

615
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,799

00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:06,839
Speaker 1: You know, I don't remember what it was. But even

621
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,319

624
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:22,480

625
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,360
Speaker 1: ask for no money. I did. Kwan stood his ground

626
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 1: came and he explained to me, he said, listen, listen

627
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,880

628
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, alright, cool, I'm the guy that actually didn't.

629
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,399

00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: not going in that direction right now? I was like, yoe,

632
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 1: And that's exactly how I reacted. I laughed in his face,

633
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 1: like for real, like I'm the chosen one, you're sucking up.

634
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 1: School came up and I just yeah, I just I

635
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 1: never and I blame the Maya, but I never actually

00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,840
Speaker 1: think it was helped. I think it was hockey, you

637
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:10,279
Speaker 1: know what I mean? But I don't know. I just

638
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 1: me being pettive. To me. It's all up and just

639
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,239
Speaker 1: throwing it out there. But it's just one o dirty

640
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: do the same thing too. For get a supertar, get

641
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 1: out of here. When he asked for his bag, it's

642
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:25,359
Speaker 1: not simul wire transfer cash trash. That's how he came

643
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 1: up with that record. Um, oh baby, I'm baby, give

644

645
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,000
Speaker 1: say her name. If you know who she is, I

646
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,399
Speaker 1: ain't gonna say her name. But the labelhead at the time,

647
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,839
Speaker 1: he was like, I'm not doing it. He said, I'm

648
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 1: not doing anything until I get a bag, and that's

649
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: how the record came about. Yeah, he stayed getting back.

650
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:00,239
Speaker 1: He was gonna say, like, I ain't shoot. When you

651
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 1: give me a back, you may had to bring him back.

652
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 1: Wow gosh, Yeah, I was real. And when I said back,

653
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,719

654
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: like black. You know what I'm saying. They was getting Listen.

655
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 1: I was so naive to that ship, like I just

656
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 1: I just wanted to connect with other artists like it

657
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: was just cool. It was like, but Ray looked at me.

658
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 1: It was like listen, young young man, young man. That

659
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 1: bad don't get that. So now you guys, Right, what

660
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 1: is the most shocking thing of the accolades that you

661
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 1: guys ever had, Like what was the most like, Wow,

662
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 1: I did this. I can't believe that. What do you mean,

663
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 1: like like in your accomplishment anything you did? Like you

664
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like you're having Bill Clayton one time.

665
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, I feel like it did what Bill Clinton? Yeah,

666
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, I know, I know Bill all that,

667
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:05,280
Speaker 1: but but but he said, yeah, I think the craziest

668
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 1: thing was Princess Diana. Let's break that down. So I

669
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 1: used to when we were in England because England so

670
00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 1: in in England at that time, and I think we're

671
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: still probably in the top three, top four, but we

672
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: were second as far as the biggest selling American artists

673
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 1: behind Michael Jackson. Right. So I used to funk around

674
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 1: every time I go to England. I'm doing some many

675
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,239
Speaker 1: of the radio. I'm shotting out Princess Diana like I

676
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 1: want to her in the video the dinner. You know.

677
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 1: So the hotel I used to stay at is called

678
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,880
Speaker 1: Royal Garden, and the Buckingham Palace is literally across the lawn,

679
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 1: and she used to come to Royal the Royal Garden

680
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:48,400
Speaker 1: to um work out. Okay, I've never seen her, but

681
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 1: people would say, oh, she comes all the time. Whatever, right,

682
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 1: bow self type of you know, just cool out ship whatever.

683
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 1: So I'm shotting, shoting, shot out. And one day we

684
00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 1: did councilor I don't know Spice Girls was on that show,

685
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: but it was like a big type of stadium whatever,

686
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:08,399
Speaker 1: and she came backstage because I was trying to get

687
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 1: her to do a video. Snapped back then, but she

688
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,439
Speaker 1: came backstage and she gave me a nice little letter,

689
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:25,279
Speaker 1: you know, declining being on the video. But she like,

690
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan. I loved your guy's music, which

691
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:31,480
Speaker 1: I represent the whole refugee movie, you know, Haiti, and

692
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 1: you know we're trying to do, you know, because you know,

693
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 1: England colonized Jamaica, so so she you know, and she

694
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 1: was like, well, you know, we always wanted to work

695
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,359
Speaker 1: with HATI colonize. She's like, we always wanted to work

696
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 1: with Haiti, but we love what you're doing and maybe

697
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: sometime in the future I can go down and hating

698
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 1: and visit like I'm just kicking it with her. And

699
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 1: she gave me this letter. A lot of God damn

700
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,440
Speaker 1: this process. You know, I was trying to kick it

701
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 1: to her, you know, like real subtle, like a you know,

702
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:02,319
Speaker 1: maybe you could give me a number, you know, But

703
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:04,920
Speaker 1: she came backstage and gave me a letter, you know,

704
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:08,479
Speaker 1: so I was excited for me. I've seen recently Cardi

705
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: b got a letter from Bono. I guess that's what

706
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 1: rich people do. They write like that's all. Yeah, I

707
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: didn't get a letter from nobody Cross, so don't worry. Letters.

708
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 1: I don't remember. I've just been so high. But it's see,

709
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,359
Speaker 1: the thing is this you gotta remember, like I grew

710
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 1: up in an era where it was not cool to

711
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 1: be Haitian, Like I know, nigga's usually act like they're

712
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:40,400
Speaker 1: from Paris, Jamaica, from Jamaica or from fucking Montreal, but

713
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 1: it was never hated. So I come from that error

714
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 1: and so to see that, Yo, this music has gotten

715
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 1: to the level where people having now different interests in

716
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:57,239
Speaker 1: Haiti and Haitians. That's a beautiful thing. Bro, that's to me.

717
00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: That's my because bro, I remember when Age for came out,

718
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,879
Speaker 1: it was like it came from Haitians. He said, he said,

719
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:09,080
Speaker 1: I think said eggs. I was like, no, No No, they

720
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 1: were like from a woman, from a Haitian woman. So

721
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:14,879
Speaker 1: you'll remember as a kid, I'm seeing this, I'm like, yo,

722
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:17,919
Speaker 1: why do you Oh, so you're saying that's the reason

723
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 1: why when when Psype of Sounds has said something that's

724
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,919
Speaker 1: the reason why the Haitian community had went down on him. Oh,

725
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,319
Speaker 1: I didn't know that. I didn't know what you just

726
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 1: said that. I don't know they went down in Cype

727
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 1: the sound. But yeah, you know, I mean listen, because

728
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 1: so you gotta remember now there's a lot of Haitians

729
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 1: right now that don't know the battlefields su struggle we

730
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 1: went through, you know. Like and I've never denied me

731
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 1: being Haitian. But see I had an advantage because I

732
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 1: was born here, and so growing up, my mom always

733
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 1: gave me like the latest ship, so I would have

734
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,719
Speaker 1: the Quarterville, remember the Google. You know, I would have

735
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,360
Speaker 1: all that. So I was baby Americanized even though I

736
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 1: had the Haitian. Hold you with me, So I wasn't

737
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,360
Speaker 1: one of them Haitian kids that couldn't go to school

738
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 1: for like a month at a time. Right, it was

739
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 1: a time and then you were in Brooklyn. That's a

740
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 1: whole harassments, haul all of them to the schools. You

741
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: couldn't go so to see everybody on this Haitian vibe.

742
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 1: When the food just came to me, that that because

743
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 1: that's what I'm about, Like, I'm about culture. You know, Okay,

744
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 1: it's beautiful. You don't want to accolades. Yeah you want

745
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,040
Speaker 1: the cause, you want the money, you want all that.

746
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 1: But I got all that. I mean, you know, we

747
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 1: after a while that doesn't become important anymore. You always

748
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,840
Speaker 1: want to get you know, money and live a certain lifestyle.

749
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 1: But after a while you're like, But also we started

750
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,719
Speaker 1: at a very young age because my first money I

751
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 1: made in the game, I was fourteen. I got twenty

752
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: five dollars to do something stupid. Damn, I've been hustling

753
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:59,160

806
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 1: about the real one. It was order. I interviewed two

00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:02,480
Speaker 1: of them, well one of them I knew it, but

808
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,319

Speaker 1: go with them that day to just shoot them how

810
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,040

813
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: couldn't hear you. So anyway, what the fun was? I saying,

814
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 1: Captain Phillips, and don't know how you kidnappen? No, we're

Speaker 1: telling myself now before that and smile, yeah, you were

816
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,640
Speaker 1: saying no before I got before I said, I got

817
00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 1: you going about so anyway, So skid Role, I went downtown.

818
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:46,239
Speaker 1: I had a hidden camera me because you can't have

819
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,600
Speaker 1: cameras with skid Row. They will murder you. I can't

820
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,200
Speaker 1: explain why you can't because people feel like you're trying

821
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,600
Speaker 1: to exploit and use them as a guinea pig. So

822
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,319
Speaker 1: I had to immerse myself in that world. And it's

823
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 1: meantally to range people too. Well they're not really the range.

824
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 1: But that's a whole different thing. So I had a

825
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 1: hidden camera on me and we had cameras, two cameras

826
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:10,160
Speaker 1: in the vans to shoot from the van so you

827
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:11,960
Speaker 1: can hear what I'm saying. You can see it from

828
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:13,759
Speaker 1: the hidden camera, and then you had the vans to

829
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,960
Speaker 1: give the different angles. I slept on the sidewalk for

830
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:21,319
Speaker 1: ten days straight. It rain racks came in my tent.

831
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:27,279
Speaker 1: I begged for money. I defecated on the sidewalk. It

832
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:31,919
Speaker 1: was pure trying to survive as a human being. Because

833
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:38,799
Speaker 1: I had access to nothing ten days straight. That must

834
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:44,000
Speaker 1: have changed. It literally changed, you know what. I changed

835
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:48,880
Speaker 1: my life. So when you homeless, right, So what's interesting

836
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:53,240
Speaker 1: when you look at the stats, please please remember your thought.

837
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:56,839
Speaker 1: But I just want people to to understand that this

838
00:50:56,960 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 1: was your choice. Okay, yeah, yeah, you said it was

839
00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:07,760
Speaker 1: my choice, you know, as a social experiment. So only

840
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 1: twenty five of the people who are homeless or what

841
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:16,799
Speaker 1: they're called chronicle homeless mean that they need some form

842
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:20,680
Speaker 1: of help or assistant from the government or for mentor institution.

843
00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 1: A regular folks like us who just lost their job,

844
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:29,720
Speaker 1: don't have a family member to go to or whatever,

845
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 1: and they go down there to just trying to figure

846
00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 1: the situation. Now, that's those numbers of staggering because you

847
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 1: would think it's right. So anyway, but what the part

848
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,799
Speaker 1: I changed my life, So once I got down there,

849
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 1: I had to figure out what my hustle is going

850
00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:46,319
Speaker 1: to me because obviously I can't survive into now it's right.

851
00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 1: So people have different hustles. Some of them they go

852
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:53,520
Speaker 1: collect palettes, you know the things that they put you

853
00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 1: know what the pallett of the war that you put

854
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:59,440
Speaker 1: products on, and trucks they put it in the you

855
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:04,560
Speaker 1: don't know what they put in containers, so I don't know.

856
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, let's keep going anyway. You get ten dollars

857
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 1: for every palette you bring back to the warehouse, right

858
00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:16,320
Speaker 1: the big wood speper, or you can go get cans.

859
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,239
Speaker 1: I had I had a tent, you could run out.

860
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: No tent. I didn't want homeless motherfucker's living in my tent. Right,

861
00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 1: I was still kind of bougie even though I was homeless,

862
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:38,000
Speaker 1: right right, it's a sweet So I decided the best

863
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:40,520
Speaker 1: thing to do is panhandling. You know, a panhandling this

864
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 1: that's when you go and beg for money. So I

865
00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 1: went to this intersection downtown where all the cars are

866
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:49,960
Speaker 1: coming off the highway because I know it's traffic. So

867
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:53,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna panel for money. So it's real simple scooping.

868
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 1: So you have any um money, mom, money to spell

869
00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:00,600
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't do it. I will go to

870
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 1: the window, right. So I didn't want to go that

871
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 1: deep man because but I'm gonna tell what me up.

872

Speaker 1: and he's focused, He's just looking straight ahead, right, and

891
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:17,319
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get his attention right, and he's just

892
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 1: like popping his head and not paying any attention to

893
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:24,680
Speaker 1: it now, mind you, because I have a hit came on.

894
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,560

901
00:54:56,920 --> 00:55:00,279

902
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,560
Speaker 1: it all the way real right here? Men lose their

903
00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 1: hair by age thirty five might have been around thirty

904

1020
01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:48,520
Speaker 1: my thing was though for me, which a lot of

1021
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:51,040
Speaker 1: people don't know. And this was a bit confusion about

1022
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:53,400
Speaker 1: me when I came up in my in my run.

1023
01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:57,640
Speaker 1: I'm not Haitian, am I'm a lot like you. I

1024
01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:01,360
Speaker 1: ain't behaving in Haitian descent American. I was the first,

1025
01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 1: I want to say the first, because it's all the

1026
01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:04,680
Speaker 1: peofo me. You got red eyes, You've got a lot

1027
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:08,160
Speaker 1: of other guys like that. I was the first, in

1028
01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:10,560
Speaker 1: a major situation to say my hood is a little Haiti.

1029
01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:12,880
Speaker 1: So see I was I was playing a little Haiti

1030
01:03:12,960 --> 01:03:14,280
Speaker 1: or trying to put it on my back of the time.

1031
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,040
Speaker 1: Whe the world didn't understand just from because you're from

1032
01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:20,680
Speaker 1: little Haiti doesn't mean you're Haitian. It's Minicans. It's having

1033
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:25,920
Speaker 1: like yeah, so people didn't know that dichotomy. And I

1034
01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:28,480
Speaker 1: didn't really like, don't talking about us the big words

1035
01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:36,120
Speaker 1: and an apishole. I respect that economy had looked that up.

1036
01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:38,480
Speaker 1: For me, it was it was It was confusing because

1037
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 1: you have people that was championed me as I'm representing

1038
01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:43,520
Speaker 1: the Haitian culture. Was that that's my blood. I'm talking

1039
01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:46,280
Speaker 1: about Poles, this Saint Remy, He's like all that that's me,

1040
01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:48,440
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, as well as nas soft report,

1041
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:50,840
Speaker 1: as well as my American side. And if you're from

1042
01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:54,000
Speaker 1: little Haiti, you understand what what whe I'm from. You

1043
01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:55,560
Speaker 1: know what I mean. But when it wasn't back when

1044
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:57,480
Speaker 1: I did it, it was like what you mean from

1045
01:03:57,480 --> 01:04:00,080
Speaker 1: Little Haiti and you know that didn't make sense. So

1046
01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:01,840
Speaker 1: it is beautiful to see it on the large scale

1047
01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 1: with Zoey dollars and and everybody that's putting it out there,

1048
01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,320
Speaker 1: because it's not more comfortable for me to be Yeah,

1049
01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:10,240
Speaker 1: what you mean, we're doing so you know what I mean?

1050
01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 1: So for me, I would love to a lot of

1051
01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:16,160
Speaker 1: confusion in my my Rosa. Man, that's a beautiful thing.

1052
01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:17,720
Speaker 1: And it's really quickly I want to shut out what

1053
01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:19,760
Speaker 1: we're talking about Little Haiti. But boy, my boy Winning,

1054
01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:22,440
Speaker 1: but you math, it's like my little brother his family

1055
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:25,439
Speaker 1: are one of the founders of Little Hates family. Yeah,

1056
01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:28,360
Speaker 1: shout out to Winning and my boy Rosa. Yeah, the

1057
01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:30,200
Speaker 1: family got the portrait of the mural up in there.

1058
01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:32,560
Speaker 1: So that makes for like fifty four maybe what's up?

1059
01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:35,520
Speaker 1: See that's crazy because I don't know the nigga that

1060
01:04:35,640 --> 01:04:39,200
Speaker 1: on Spanish found the Spanish Hall. I don't know him

1061
01:04:39,240 --> 01:04:42,880
Speaker 1: at all. You know the nigga that founded his grandfather.

1062
01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:47,720
Speaker 1: Oh remember the nigga started Spanish hall on right, probably

1063
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:52,400
Speaker 1: founded it like in the early twenty centuries, right, So

1064
01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:54,480
Speaker 1: you wouldn't know what that person. First, when you look

1065
01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:57,280
Speaker 1: at the when you look at the migration of when

1066
01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:01,200
Speaker 1: the Puerto Rican started to migrate to um to New Yorker,

1067
01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:05,760
Speaker 1: special than was really went there was too migrated for

1068
01:05:05,800 --> 01:05:09,040
Speaker 1: Cubans they came in. I'm just saying there was two waves.

1069
01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:15,160
Speaker 1: They came out there and then they came in the

1070
01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:18,000
Speaker 1: eighties obviously when Kasho was just getting real crazy with it.

1071
01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:23,360
Speaker 1: But yeah, so anyway, so it's just women getting intelligent,

1072
01:05:23,400 --> 01:05:26,880
Speaker 1: I like getting intelligence. We gotta go back some some

1073
01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:31,800
Speaker 1: some ship. So don't know this, here's the person as

1074
01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:39,320
Speaker 1: hip hop, especially with you right loving hip hop? What

1075
01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:42,040
Speaker 1: made you choose to do like something like that, like

1076
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:45,160
Speaker 1: because it was it was tough for me And honestly,

1077
01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:50,040
Speaker 1: Kalid and E Class said no when he first came around, Okay,

1078
01:05:50,840 --> 01:05:54,560
Speaker 1: continue and um. So when they started filming the pilot

1079
01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:57,480
Speaker 1: and looking for talent, they approached me, and you know

1080
01:05:57,600 --> 01:05:59,800
Speaker 1: callid Andy Class was like, no, that's not that's not

1081
01:05:59,880 --> 01:06:02,640
Speaker 1: the look. We're not doing that. So I turned it down.

1082
01:06:03,080 --> 01:06:04,960
Speaker 1: But a year later when it came back around and

1083
01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:08,080
Speaker 1: they were actually like in pre production they were getting

1084
01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:09,680
Speaker 1: ready to film, they hit me up and was like, yo,

1085
01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:11,960
Speaker 1: so what you're doing? Like you sure you don't want

1086
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:15,120
Speaker 1: to do it? Was definitely mighty who hit me up? Yeah,

1087
01:06:15,200 --> 01:06:19,400
Speaker 1: she's gonna And you know, I just felt like I

1088
01:06:19,560 --> 01:06:21,200
Speaker 1: was at a point in my career it was it

1089
01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:24,560
Speaker 1: was like no fault of Kalid's, but he got lost

1090
01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:27,720
Speaker 1: on a jet ski one day and that was it,

1091
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:30,960
Speaker 1: Like he went viral and his career completely changed. So

1092
01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:34,320
Speaker 1: happy and I'm very happy. But at the same time,

1093
01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:36,320
Speaker 1: he was busy, you know, he was busy. So I

1094
01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:38,240
Speaker 1: found myself, you know, I put out a record with

1095
01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:40,520
Speaker 1: them Goes, and I didn't really have that same push

1096
01:06:40,600 --> 01:06:44,480
Speaker 1: I have a Saturday. It was a vibe. It was

1097
01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:47,920
Speaker 1: a vibe. So um, I just looked back at the

1098
01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:50,960
Speaker 1: year and was like I could have you know, like

1099
01:06:51,320 --> 01:06:53,080
Speaker 1: I could have done more. I could be doing more.

1100
01:06:53,360 --> 01:06:57,160
Speaker 1: And and Kalid's busy and e class opened five Finger Lickings,

1101
01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:00,520
Speaker 1: So it was like I can't. I can't sit here

1102
01:07:00,560 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 1: and not do something. So I made the decision to

1103
01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:06,040
Speaker 1: do the show. I took it upon myself against their

1104
01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:10,880
Speaker 1: advice and how okay and that being said, like, how

1105
01:07:11,560 --> 01:07:17,600
Speaker 1: so far has your experience experience? Yeah, it was tough

1106
01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:20,120
Speaker 1: for me. Because you know, I like to be I'm

1107
01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:23,480
Speaker 1: a very positive person and I like to be around

1108
01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:27,040
Speaker 1: like minded individuals and artists and talented people. And I'm

1109
01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:29,600
Speaker 1: not saying that aren't people like that. Recently with the

1110
01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:35,880
Speaker 1: Girl I never had I never had beef. Yeah, exactly exactly,

1111
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:37,920
Speaker 1: got watched the show. Trust me, I'm good at this.

1112
01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:47,600
Speaker 1: The girl a million dollar girl, she said, it's always

1113
01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:57,120
Speaker 1: so how is that like, because um, that's the one

1114
01:07:57,200 --> 01:08:00,120
Speaker 1: thing like I don't want to really you know, no,

1115
01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:03,760
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of you know, the shows. It's for me.

1116
01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:06,480
Speaker 1: It was almost like the new Jerry Springer. It is

1117
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 1: it is. You know, you gotta lot to understand what

1118
01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:12,720
Speaker 1: it is. And I understood going into it what it was.

1119
01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:16,080
Speaker 1: And I know that the show derives on negativity for

1120
01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:18,160
Speaker 1: ratings and it is what it is. But it's also

1121
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:20,760
Speaker 1: a platform to showcase my music and say yo, I'm

1122
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:25,679
Speaker 1: out here. And example exactly, she was an amazing example

1123
01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:28,240
Speaker 1: because party had just come out. Remy just had like

1124
01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:30,640
Speaker 1: a smash Remy's Remy. But you know, the show was

1125
01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:33,519
Speaker 1: a platform for her also and also Kay Michelle has

1126
01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:37,439
Speaker 1: amazing and amazing experience with it too. Yeah, shout outs, Okay,

1127
01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:41,680
Speaker 1: but um, but you know, just I just had to

1128
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:44,920
Speaker 1: stay positive in that situation, and I understood what it was.

1129
01:08:45,439 --> 01:08:47,840
Speaker 1: And also I know that, like I'm gonna be great

1130
01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 1: with or without the show, and I understand that there's

1131
01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:53,639
Speaker 1: some people who like the show is you know, that's

1132
01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:55,640
Speaker 1: what they have. So when it's time to turn up

1133
01:08:55,680 --> 01:09:01,160
Speaker 1: for TV, it's platform. It's exactly as a purple class.

1134
01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:03,840
Speaker 1: So he does makes you look good? You want out?

1135
01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:08,880
Speaker 1: What's up with you and Joe Barton? She got beef?

1136
01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:16,679
Speaker 1: That's going on? Man? What's just the first record? Don't.

1137
01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:18,720
Speaker 1: I don't have no beef for Joe. I just had

1138
01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:21,200
Speaker 1: to let him know something, Well what what what I

1139
01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:24,639
Speaker 1: literally happened for y'all even to like like have any

1140
01:09:24,720 --> 01:09:26,519
Speaker 1: type of static at all. I just felt like he

1141
01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:29,800
Speaker 1: came out cactor when he was talking about L. A. Read,

1142
01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:31,639
Speaker 1: which is the person that signed me. So I ain't

1143
01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 1: gonna respect that. Oh yeah, So so then, um, now,

1144
01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:39,920
Speaker 1: did did you make a record? I didn't make a record.

1145
01:09:39,920 --> 01:09:41,960
Speaker 1: I just told him, next time you say something about L. A. Red,

1146
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:43,639
Speaker 1: I'll run into him and punch him in his mouth.

1147
01:09:44,320 --> 01:09:53,160
Speaker 1: Just make some of that that. I didn't know how

1148
01:09:54,240 --> 01:09:56,600
Speaker 1: we got for that at all, that's cool, no beef no,

1149
01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:01,240
Speaker 1: and he tweeted it up. You know, we didn't clear up.

1150
01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:03,000
Speaker 1: He just tweeted something about me. And then when I

1151
01:10:03,080 --> 01:10:06,519
Speaker 1: got on the BT, sci Fi said, don't go Joe

1152
01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:13,080
Speaker 1: button instead of everyone. So let's let's actually um because

1153
01:10:14,240 --> 01:10:16,760
Speaker 1: like we're on the opposite side of what he does.

1154
01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:21,000
Speaker 1: And it's still it's all love, of course, but you know,

1155
01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:23,000
Speaker 1: we like to pig up our people like a person

1156
01:10:23,120 --> 01:10:25,680
Speaker 1: is on a drink jam. So far of us, we

1157
01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:28,400
Speaker 1: we that's all model. We'll stop to say that that's

1158
01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:32,520
Speaker 1: he's the opposite. But it feels like the new generation

1159
01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:36,160
Speaker 1: doesn't respect him as opposed to us. We do respect.

1160
01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:43,080
Speaker 1: New generation respect who Joe or Joe don't respect? Can

1161
01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:46,280
Speaker 1: you can you because we've we've seen this disconnect, right,

1162
01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:51,160
Speaker 1: can you like explain like why Megos went like him

1163
01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:53,960
Speaker 1: or or something like that? Neither. I mean, the Megos

1164
01:10:54,000 --> 01:10:58,360
Speaker 1: thing came from him talking about Yaddi. You know Y'adi's

1165
01:10:58,439 --> 01:11:02,519
Speaker 1: QC and that's quality. Yeah, And then I feel like

1166
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:05,080
Speaker 1: the young cats like myself and the rest of us

1167
01:11:05,120 --> 01:11:07,400
Speaker 1: who feel some type of way about him, it's just

1168
01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:11,160
Speaker 1: because he don't show us the respect that we showed

1169
01:11:11,200 --> 01:11:14,400
Speaker 1: the O G s like, I respect Joe Budden as

1170
01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:18,560
Speaker 1: a lyricist. Whatever, you had one hit song, but we

1171
01:11:18,680 --> 01:11:22,360
Speaker 1: know the lyrics that you had, like you fire. Just

1172
01:11:22,479 --> 01:11:25,559
Speaker 1: give us young guys our credit too, But he always

1173
01:11:25,600 --> 01:11:28,679
Speaker 1: discredited us or down talking to us like y'all supposed

1174
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:31,200
Speaker 1: to be the O G s. We the young hip

1175
01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:34,080
Speaker 1: hop look up to the ogs coming up. Everybody knew

1176
01:11:34,080 --> 01:11:37,680
Speaker 1: to pump it up. I'm saying, like, why are you

1177
01:11:37,800 --> 01:11:39,880
Speaker 1: not even us our credit? Is gonna be honest, It's

1178
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 1: kind of interesting to hear you say that, because as

1179
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:46,519
Speaker 1: an O G sometimes we don't hear that from me

1180
01:11:46,680 --> 01:11:51,120
Speaker 1: younger than man. I'm just gonna be honest. I'm just

1181
01:11:51,560 --> 01:11:54,720
Speaker 1: feel crazy good the O G. I can tell you

1182
01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:59,800
Speaker 1: why you don't hear that, right, Okay, it's because we

1183
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,400
Speaker 1: get caught up and what we remember when we were

1184
01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:06,120
Speaker 1: coming up. So when we're coming up, we had the

1185
01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:09,479
Speaker 1: old motherfucker's sings. Man, this ship that they're doing it

1186
01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:13,360
Speaker 1: really what hip hop, right, So we find ourselves doing

1187
01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:16,200
Speaker 1: the same ship when it's like, yo, you're passing the

1188
01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,240
Speaker 1: torch them nigger is doing anything. As a matter of fact,

1189
01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:21,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with you this error. It's a

1190
01:12:21,880 --> 01:12:26,520
Speaker 1: better fucking error than the error. As far as like entrepreneurs,

1191
01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:33,600
Speaker 1: it's entrepreneur because we was back in the day the

1192
01:12:34,760 --> 01:12:38,680
Speaker 1: coming Yeah and then were free and they all need

1193

Speaker 1: own us. Now you have to sell listen, let me

1196
01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:48,519

Speaker 1: the Fujie Seen Seen money because we're so so much

1198

01:13:00,120 --> 01:13:03,479
Speaker 1: cost a hundred and seventy five sorry, a hundred and

1201
01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:08,240
Speaker 1: thirty five thousand dollars to make. Columbia only spent about

1202
01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:10,400
Speaker 1: two hundred grand because they're like, oh, ye're gonna you're

1203
01:13:10,439 --> 01:13:12,439
Speaker 1: gonna probably getting the top. Cham didn't do the hip

1204
01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:16,040
Speaker 1: hop drop. The ship kept climbing climbing. By the time

1205
01:13:16,040 --> 01:13:18,439
Speaker 1: they went to spin marketing money with already like two

1206
01:13:18,479 --> 01:13:23,040
Speaker 1: millions you feel baby, So it was like dot on,

1207
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:25,040
Speaker 1: this is why we made money because we sold so

1208
01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:27,320
Speaker 1: many riccords and they gave it each of us five

1209
01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:31,200
Speaker 1: million dollar check like the recoup was nothing. It cost

1210
01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:38,080
Speaker 1: the school I just want people to understand the business

1211
01:13:38,160 --> 01:13:43,120
Speaker 1: sense of what the funk he just saying it's sold

1212
01:13:43,120 --> 01:13:47,559
Speaker 1: twenty four million, it cost a hundred and thirty five

1213
01:13:47,760 --> 01:14:00,120
Speaker 1: three hundred, marketing was legendary, MINIMALI that's you know, is

1214
01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:07,000
Speaker 1: exactly how big so I spend. So I spend a

1215
01:14:07,080 --> 01:14:11,479
Speaker 1: hundred dirty any day to make So I say this

1216
01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:13,040
Speaker 1: to say, though I'm going back to my point. My

1217
01:14:13,160 --> 01:14:15,640
Speaker 1: point is is that for me because people always ask you,

1218
01:14:15,720 --> 01:14:17,120
Speaker 1: what do you think about what's going on right now?

1219
01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:20,240
Speaker 1: I love it? I mean obviously. And then when when

1220
01:14:20,280 --> 01:14:22,200
Speaker 1: they ask you what's going on, they're saying the claiming

1221
01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:27,080
Speaker 1: of music or the content of music? I think both. Okay, continue, um,

1222
01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:30,720
Speaker 1: now you can make an arguments for both. Could you

1223
01:14:30,800 --> 01:14:34,000
Speaker 1: could say, listen, there's things I feel like, listen, in

1224
01:14:34,080 --> 01:14:36,479
Speaker 1: our generation, we have an advantage that they didn't have,

1225
01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:38,599
Speaker 1: and I can say the same thing about the advantage

1226
01:14:38,640 --> 01:14:41,479
Speaker 1: that they have. Now something, can you just play the difference.

1227
01:14:41,640 --> 01:14:43,599
Speaker 1: What was the advantage that we had with the advantage

1228
01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:47,880
Speaker 1: they have them? I believe that the advantage that they have, well,

1229
01:14:47,920 --> 01:14:53,680
Speaker 1: I love about this generation. It's all about is the

1230
01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:58,439
Speaker 1: ship piping or not? And our generation, who's the fucking

1231
01:14:58,520 --> 01:15:03,360
Speaker 1: producer who you down with? Who fucking sign all that

1232
01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:06,720
Speaker 1: you got all this bullshit? You knew that. You know

1233
01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:14,360
Speaker 1: you're listening forever. Produce your ship, Timberland, producer ship? Did

1234
01:15:14,479 --> 01:15:16,960
Speaker 1: producer ship? If you didn't have that ship, motherfucker's didn't

1235
01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:20,120
Speaker 1: sunk with you here. They just donna give a funk?

1236
01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:25,960
Speaker 1: Is this ship? You feel me? Now? On that instance?

1237
01:15:26,680 --> 01:15:29,200
Speaker 1: Gunshot for that bro. You can't because it's all about

1238
01:15:29,240 --> 01:15:31,960
Speaker 1: the art, whether you like it or not. It's about

1239
01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:34,639
Speaker 1: the art you can create. Now, I could, I could

1240
01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:37,200
Speaker 1: make the argument that in that generation we probably have

1241
01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:43,560
Speaker 1: more icons, we produce more icons because it's and you

1242
01:15:43,600 --> 01:15:45,920
Speaker 1: know what you said, it letting Darry, So I do

1243
01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:47,640
Speaker 1: what I wanted to cut you off, but I do

1244
01:15:47,840 --> 01:15:51,880
Speaker 1: also want to act. So it doesn't make it more

1245
01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:55,320
Speaker 1: because like you said, are we made icons? So now

1246
01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:58,880
Speaker 1: a lot of times these people are making just for

1247
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:01,840
Speaker 1: that one moment. It doesn't matter though, that's because you

1248
01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:04,360
Speaker 1: know what, let me say something to you. I remember

1249
01:16:05,160 --> 01:16:07,559
Speaker 1: we got into a fight with kaross One on stage

1250
01:16:07,760 --> 01:16:15,000
Speaker 1: you about the caress One fights fis fight fish fight

1251
01:16:15,880 --> 01:16:18,800
Speaker 1: because karross One felt like the ship that we were

1252
01:16:18,920 --> 01:16:22,679
Speaker 1: doing was not hip hop at that time, he felt

1253
01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:24,679
Speaker 1: like that was a hip hop and that's what I'm saying.

1254
01:16:25,120 --> 01:16:28,519
Speaker 1: You got these old motherfucker's. Man, it's so hard they

1255
01:16:28,560 --> 01:16:30,519
Speaker 1: don't want to let go to the like I want

1256
01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:33,200
Speaker 1: to hold on to this ship. Nigga crossed this ship

Speaker 1: and smure in the middle of it. I'll tell you

1303
01:19:42,880 --> 01:19:45,240
Speaker 1: something better than that. People tell you that that one

1304
01:19:45,280 --> 01:19:48,519
Speaker 1: of the best evers in music is the nineties, right,

1305
01:19:48,960 --> 01:19:50,960
Speaker 1: People will tell you that some of the best errors

1306
01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:53,120
Speaker 1: in music is the eighties. You know we had in

1307
01:19:53,160 --> 01:19:55,800
Speaker 1: the eighties, we had mc hammon, We have another exactly

1308
01:19:55,880 --> 01:19:59,440
Speaker 1: and they would be welcome on drink Camp. I understand

1309
01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:03,200
Speaker 1: who they were, I understand exactly what they did. I

1310
01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:06,400
Speaker 1: understand exactly what it was. And the thing about it is,

1311
01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:09,240
Speaker 1: that's the thing about music. See people and people and

1312
01:20:09,880 --> 01:20:14,799
Speaker 1: see the reason why people should be paid in music

1313
01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:20,000
Speaker 1: more than anything else. In like if we put a

1314
01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:23,559
Speaker 1: whole life in front of fucking world, right, and if

1315
01:20:23,600 --> 01:20:28,320
Speaker 1: our shipped don't work, we can't never say I'm gonna

1316
01:20:28,360 --> 01:20:30,840
Speaker 1: take my face off and I'm gonna just go back

1317
01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:33,679
Speaker 1: into the normal life. Some of us are all lucky.

1318
01:20:33,760 --> 01:20:35,479
Speaker 1: Some of us is lucky to say, yo, I can

1319
01:20:35,560 --> 01:20:38,240
Speaker 1: take their face off and they might not see. But

1320
01:20:38,280 --> 01:20:40,240
Speaker 1: I don't give if you had a hit record, if

1321
01:20:40,280 --> 01:20:44,320
Speaker 1: you had to fucking views, if you had three million views,

1322
01:20:44,439 --> 01:20:47,040
Speaker 1: there's somebody in this world who looked up to you

1323
01:20:47,600 --> 01:20:50,600
Speaker 1: that you can't take that ship back at all. You

1324
01:20:50,720 --> 01:20:55,280
Speaker 1: can't take it back. You influence somebody somewhere. That's why

1325
01:20:55,479 --> 01:20:59,479
Speaker 1: music people should be played like fucking baseball, fucking players

1326
01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:03,200
Speaker 1: and what. But but the money does exist. The only

1327
01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:09,479
Speaker 1: problem is is that you have this institutional um entity

1328
01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:14,200
Speaker 1: that's set up to not let us think about this. Right,

1329
01:21:14,240 --> 01:21:17,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you something, Dee. Do you know we're

1330
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:21,240
Speaker 1: the only one when you look at any genre of

1331
01:21:22,000 --> 01:21:24,560
Speaker 1: any business or anything, whether you go work for a

1332
01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:27,360
Speaker 1: hospital or you're a doctor, you're a medicine and engineering,

1333
01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:33,559
Speaker 1: sports athletes, actors were the only one don't have any insurance. Yeah,

1334
01:21:33,600 --> 01:21:37,960
Speaker 1: we've been talking about that. Think about that, yo, Because

1335
01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:42,080
Speaker 1: now let me say this to you man, five dog Yo,

1336
01:21:42,240 --> 01:21:45,880
Speaker 1: if five Dog could have a little something better, maybe

1337
01:21:45,920 --> 01:21:48,200
Speaker 1: he wouldn't want to win out like that. This ship, yo,

1338
01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:51,120
Speaker 1: my nigga, it's some real ship. Your music, don't give

1340
01:21:55,880 --> 01:22:00,320
Speaker 1: bigger than just hip hop. That's like you don't type

1341
01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:04,720
Speaker 1: of that. That's a sad. Really, I'm saying we need

1342
01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:09,800
Speaker 1: to wear it because it doesn't make any sense because

1343
01:22:09,840 --> 01:22:13,200
Speaker 1: there's everything we're doing for all the money that these

1344
01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:17,000
Speaker 1: labels made, that we don't have something a little something

1345
01:22:17,080 --> 01:22:19,880
Speaker 1: like if something happens to me, Come on, man, that

1346
01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:22,400
Speaker 1: ship is crazy. Like just think about it. Like let's

01:22:22,439 --> 01:22:26,160
Speaker 1: just say, like I'm using you for for example. It's

1348
01:22:26,160 --> 01:22:29,040
Speaker 1: probably a bad example, but using right. No, I'm just

1349
01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:31,320
Speaker 1: keeping it with right. So you're from the streets, on

1350
01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:34,439
Speaker 1: the streets in Miami, right, you're doing all these positive things.

1351
01:22:34,600 --> 01:22:36,759
Speaker 1: But now you jump in the car with your homie,

1352
01:22:36,880 --> 01:22:40,560
Speaker 1: you're leaving the office, and your homies' right happing me

1353
01:22:40,960 --> 01:22:44,320
Speaker 1: and then y'all get pulled over and none of the

1354
01:22:44,400 --> 01:22:46,640
Speaker 1: ship in the cars yours. But you just wrote with

1355
01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:48,840
Speaker 1: your homie for a second. This should be a hip

1356
01:22:48,920 --> 01:22:54,280
Speaker 1: hop union that says, oh, nah, we understand that, you

1357
01:22:54,439 --> 01:22:57,679
Speaker 1: understand we're gonna get Zoe dollars. We're gonna go motherfucker

1358
01:22:57,920 --> 01:23:01,320
Speaker 1: take and like did you not? This is this was

1359
01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:04,400
Speaker 1: from crazy Ship. One time I got locked up and

1360
01:23:04,560 --> 01:23:09,040
Speaker 1: leoll Cons had everything set up for me, Like it

1361
01:23:09,200 --> 01:23:11,120
Speaker 1: was like he waited for me to get locked up,

1362
01:23:11,720 --> 01:23:13,760
Speaker 1: Like he was just kid, you know. He was like,

1363
01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:17,200
Speaker 1: were room Barkley to call me? My Breil money was here?

1364
01:23:17,439 --> 01:23:19,720
Speaker 1: I knew what time my house was doing. I said,

1365
01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:22,439
Speaker 1: what the fun that they were so experienced at that

1366
01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:24,680
Speaker 1: jam I was coming from Tommy Boy. I was like,

1367
01:23:25,040 --> 01:23:26,600
Speaker 1: they didn't know what the fund to do when I

1368
01:23:26,680 --> 01:23:28,640
Speaker 1: got locked up. But what I'm trying to say is

1369
01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:32,439
Speaker 1: that should be something where you know, you just made

1370
01:23:32,479 --> 01:23:34,479
Speaker 1: a simple mistake. You just got into the car with

1371
01:23:34,600 --> 01:23:37,720
Speaker 1: your homie to go to the office or go to

1372
01:23:38,360 --> 01:23:40,200
Speaker 1: King of Diamonds or something like that. This should be

1373
01:23:40,320 --> 01:23:43,439
Speaker 1: something that protects you for putting in that work, for

1374
01:23:43,640 --> 01:23:46,360
Speaker 1: being you know what I'm saying from sitting there and saying,

1375
01:23:46,360 --> 01:23:50,120
Speaker 1: you know what, Like DMX said something on this podcast,

1376
01:23:50,600 --> 01:23:54,200
Speaker 1: this is like a like a third podcast and he said,

1377
01:23:54,280 --> 01:23:58,280
Speaker 1: I stopped hating wack rappers, and we all stopped. He

1378
01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:01,200
Speaker 1: got quiet and he said, what the why did you

1379
01:24:01,280 --> 01:24:04,320
Speaker 1: say that? And what do you mean? He said, I

1380
01:24:04,360 --> 01:24:07,960
Speaker 1: stopped hitting whack rappers. We said, why do you not

1381
01:24:08,200 --> 01:24:11,360
Speaker 1: hate wack rappers? And he said, because at least one

1382
01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:17,040
Speaker 1: rapper employees six or seven other people. So don't matter

1383
01:24:17,040 --> 01:24:22,040
Speaker 1: if he don't like him or not. He's creating opportunities

1384
01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:25,599
Speaker 1: and he's helping other people from the hood and making

1385
01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:27,920
Speaker 1: it out. But that's why I always stated, you see

1386
01:24:28,160 --> 01:24:31,120
Speaker 1: people stay to me. They look at me like, yo,

1387
01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:36,120
Speaker 1: you know, why are you so happy when people see me?

1388
01:24:36,280 --> 01:24:41,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you gotta three Cardie blaces and

1389
01:24:41,200 --> 01:24:43,800
Speaker 1: you can't just thinking. First, First off, let me just

1390
01:24:44,040 --> 01:24:46,160

01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:49,240
Speaker 1: I've ever got on drink Chance period. He gave me

1392
01:24:49,360 --> 01:24:53,320
Speaker 1: three partique for leaps. Right, I'm gonna watch guys as well.

1393
01:24:53,640 --> 01:24:56,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch guy as well. I didn't spend two

1394
01:24:56,720 --> 01:24:59,920
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand on the petique. I don't even

1395
01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:03,679

1397
01:25:06,720 --> 01:25:10,200
Speaker 1: announcing it right, but for now, listen, you're you're gonna

1398
01:25:10,240 --> 01:25:14,240
Speaker 1: make me spend two hundred to get one just to

1399
01:25:14,360 --> 01:25:21,759
Speaker 1: play You're bless scot No. No, But I was saying,

1400
01:25:21,840 --> 01:25:26,360
Speaker 1: I was talking to somebody, and I said, what hip

1401
01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:32,519
Speaker 1: hop has done for the culture where we all be

1402
01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:40,519
Speaker 1: if hip hop didn't exist? Right, That's why because somebody

1403
01:25:40,560 --> 01:25:42,160
Speaker 1: asked me a little questions I was gonna And that's

1404
01:25:42,160 --> 01:25:44,160
Speaker 1: why I don't like throw interviews, because the reason I

01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:48,760
Speaker 1: don't do anythings because they'd like to revert back and

1456
01:29:27,080 --> 01:29:34,680
Speaker 1: it was crazy, right, here's the craziest ship. Right. I

1457
01:29:34,800 --> 01:29:37,800
Speaker 1: spoke to my friend bus the round. You know, what's

1458
01:29:37,840 --> 01:29:40,080
Speaker 1: the course? We want? No buster? That's my man got

1459
01:29:40,120 --> 01:29:42,960
Speaker 1: the buster and buzzed Me and Buzzes just talking about

1460
01:29:43,000 --> 01:29:46,439
Speaker 1: the blue. But Buzzes said, I said, what's up there?

1461
01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:52,280
Speaker 1: He goes, You're not it's just told read so well ship. Yeah,

1462
01:29:53,000 --> 01:29:56,840
Speaker 1: I said, what was that? There? He goes shot? He

1463
01:29:57,040 --> 01:30:00,680
Speaker 1: really asked nas like his next album just coming out,

1464
01:30:01,560 --> 01:30:03,760
Speaker 1: And now I said, I think the game is cool

1465
01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:13,400
Speaker 1: without me, right, that's crazy, that's scary, bro mhm. But

1466
01:30:13,520 --> 01:30:17,799
Speaker 1: it's also luxury. Just thinking about it, it is luxury

1467
01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:21,920
Speaker 1: because when you're a rap and I got to speak

1468
01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:23,840
Speaker 1: from a rapper's point but I don't know from R

1469
01:30:23,920 --> 01:30:26,559
Speaker 1: and B perspective, but from a raptmer's point of view,

1470
01:30:27,400 --> 01:30:29,599
Speaker 1: like you always go back in and do that next

1471
01:30:29,680 --> 01:30:32,840
Speaker 1: album to get up, to hit the road to get up,

1472
01:30:33,360 --> 01:30:36,320
Speaker 1: and then you and that cycle who keeps going. But

1473
01:30:36,479 --> 01:30:40,360
Speaker 1: what happens when that part of your life just racist

1474
01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:44,080
Speaker 1: where you just say album, You don't have to do

1475
01:30:44,160 --> 01:30:47,360
Speaker 1: it because you already left. But he reached a certain

1476
01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:51,559
Speaker 1: threshold where he's exploring, and that's that's what you're already

1477
01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:58,120
Speaker 1: talking about different world. You know, so listen because the

1478
01:30:58,200 --> 01:31:02,040
Speaker 1: world is gonna say pride, where was the next time? Right?

1479
01:31:02,120 --> 01:31:05,479
Speaker 1: So you were at that level where love where it's

1480
01:31:05,560 --> 01:31:12,000
Speaker 1: like yeah, I mean listen, look, bro, I tell people this,

1481
01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:13,880
Speaker 1: and I'm not trying to be funny when I's say this,

1482
01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:17,400
Speaker 1: but I probably got more money than your top ten

1483
01:31:17,479 --> 01:31:27,519
Speaker 1: favorite rappers out right now. And it's not it's just

1484
01:31:27,680 --> 01:31:32,360
Speaker 1: because I invested my money. Always said Prize was the

1485
01:31:32,400 --> 01:31:36,519
Speaker 1: business guy the food is that correct? Period? I mean

1486
01:31:36,560 --> 01:31:40,320
Speaker 1: I was always the nig like I know one thing

1487
01:31:40,400 --> 01:31:48,560
Speaker 1: once I left the hood, but no circumstances, I'm not

1488
01:31:48,720 --> 01:31:53,800
Speaker 1: going back there. The trajectory from being to the hood

1489
01:31:54,040 --> 01:31:57,519
Speaker 1: to where I go, I couldn't let that ship back there,

1490
01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:02,160
Speaker 1: you feel me? So I made sure like yeah, and

1491
01:32:02,240 --> 01:32:04,680
Speaker 1: I try to teach you know, whoever wants to hear that, like, Yo,

1492
01:32:05,680 --> 01:32:08,880
Speaker 1: this is not ever going to last forever. So you

1493
01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:12,800
Speaker 1: gotta worry about the bell curve in your life. You

1494
01:32:12,840 --> 01:32:15,640
Speaker 1: gotta say, I'm gonna keep this, I'm gonna trick this,

1495
01:32:16,200 --> 01:32:19,439
Speaker 1: I'm going to invest us because you never know when

1496
01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:22,000
Speaker 1: that time comes to slope. So when people sitting here

1497
01:32:22,040 --> 01:32:25,120
Speaker 1: and seeing me driving the race, like you said, they're like,

1498
01:32:26,080 --> 01:32:29,519
Speaker 1: they're like, it's a bespoke. By the way, excuse me,

1499
01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:35,040
Speaker 1: but though the strict language that's spokes me where you're

1500
01:32:35,040 --> 01:32:38,800
Speaker 1: getting custom may yet but but but but you don't

1501
01:32:38,800 --> 01:32:40,720
Speaker 1: even know what that means. I gotta say, my life,

1502
01:32:43,080 --> 01:32:45,320
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, it's just a beautiful thing to be

1503
01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:48,559
Speaker 1: able to know that because of his hip hop thing

1504
01:32:48,840 --> 01:32:51,519
Speaker 1: calls a hip hop. Yeah, I'm always gonna revert back

1505
01:32:51,520 --> 01:32:53,599
Speaker 1: to you don't remember, say I went to college, right,

1506
01:32:53,720 --> 01:32:56,880
Speaker 1: so I dropped out my senior year at the beginning

1507
01:32:56,920 --> 01:33:00,040
Speaker 1: of my senior year. Label was like, yo, that I

1508
01:33:00,120 --> 01:33:03,479
Speaker 1: make a decision, You're going rogue or whatever, like damn.

1509
01:33:04,800 --> 01:33:08,080
Speaker 1: You know. Obviously my mom hated that because she Haitian,

1510
01:33:08,800 --> 01:33:11,759
Speaker 1: you know, went to yell like how you don't finish

1511
01:33:11,800 --> 01:33:15,320
Speaker 1: and get your degree? Right? But I knew this is

1512
01:33:15,400 --> 01:33:19,960
Speaker 1: where if I didn't have hip hop, I'm gonna say

1513
01:33:20,000 --> 01:33:22,240
Speaker 1: this to you. If I didn't have hip hop, I

1514
01:33:22,280 --> 01:33:26,920
Speaker 1: probably would have graduated from college getting to finance work

1515
01:33:26,960 --> 01:33:29,960
Speaker 1: in Wall Street. Right now, at this point in my life,

1516
01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:32,639
Speaker 1: I probably would have been married, I had three kids.

1517
01:33:33,160 --> 01:33:35,360
Speaker 1: I would have hated my life, hate my wife, hate

1518
01:33:35,400 --> 01:33:37,880
Speaker 1: my kids. I would have you know, I'm the saying

1519
01:33:37,880 --> 01:33:43,760
Speaker 1: because like hip hop, like I'm able to do, I

1520
01:33:43,880 --> 01:34:07,400
Speaker 1: definitely see us. I don't know what got me, but

1521
01:34:07,439 --> 01:34:09,640
Speaker 1: I'm just saying it was. What I'm saying, is I

1522
01:34:09,760 --> 01:34:12,120
Speaker 1: know what you mean. You know you said something very interesting.

1523
01:34:13,320 --> 01:34:18,639
Speaker 1: As an artist, when you when you're putting music out

1524
01:34:18,680 --> 01:34:22,360
Speaker 1: there or you're creating them, you're acting you basically you

1525
01:34:22,560 --> 01:34:26,160
Speaker 1: putting your nakedself out there. Right, It's kind of like

1526
01:34:26,360 --> 01:34:30,240
Speaker 1: like like the guy who made this bother. If I said, man,

1527
01:34:30,280 --> 01:34:33,400
Speaker 1: I hate this fucking Blueberry ship, he's so much sleepy,

1528
01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:37,080
Speaker 1: he cool, we don't right, But if you say I

1529
01:34:37,240 --> 01:34:40,160
Speaker 1: hate this artist right hand, you start trolling am to

1530
01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:43,320
Speaker 1: take that face off the artist is he may act

1531
01:34:43,400 --> 01:34:46,080
Speaker 1: like he don't care this is it affects him a

1532
01:34:46,120 --> 01:34:48,240
Speaker 1: little like damn, why the fund this motherfucker don't like

1533

1534
01:34:52,200 --> 01:34:56,639
Speaker 1: doesn't like it. Most of your pop wouldn't like organic blueberry, right.

1535
01:34:59,080 --> 01:35:03,360
Speaker 1: I'm just saying. I'm just saying, I'll tell you, I'll

1536
01:35:03,360 --> 01:35:08,320
Speaker 1: tell you. Please please remember your point, please please move

1537
01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:10,400
Speaker 1: in real point. But I tell you a funny story.

1538
01:35:10,520 --> 01:35:13,639
Speaker 1: One day, one day when I was first like about

1539
01:35:13,680 --> 01:35:16,840
Speaker 1: to become a compona nor yea. The dude came on

1540
01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:22,000
Speaker 1: the train. I was going to Unique Studio and he

1541
01:35:22,200 --> 01:35:25,680
Speaker 1: was leaving from the train stop from Unique Studios. So

1542
01:35:25,800 --> 01:35:28,200
Speaker 1: he stood there and he took off his McDonald's hat

1543
01:35:28,240 --> 01:35:31,200
Speaker 1: and he took off his ship and he was just

1544
01:35:31,280 --> 01:35:35,000
Speaker 1: just like boom, and we were just talking and I

1545
01:35:35,120 --> 01:35:38,439
Speaker 1: was getting off the stop. And I would have treated

1546
01:35:38,520 --> 01:35:43,920
Speaker 1: my life a year later to be like to be

1547
01:35:44,080 --> 01:35:46,720
Speaker 1: like that, like once I took off my hat. I

1548
01:35:46,840 --> 01:35:51,080
Speaker 1: wanted to like not be nor we normal. I didn't

1549
01:35:51,160 --> 01:35:54,679
Speaker 1: know I could never turn that back on. I didn't

1550
01:35:54,720 --> 01:35:57,080
Speaker 1: know that I did. Like, but let me where you

1551
01:35:57,200 --> 01:36:00,760
Speaker 1: at right now in your life? Right? Yes? Think about this.

1552
01:36:02,920 --> 01:36:07,840
Speaker 1: For seventy five years straight, the number one genre music

1553
01:36:08,479 --> 01:36:12,559
Speaker 1: selling wise was rock and roll worldwide, seven or five

1554
01:36:12,640 --> 01:36:16,680
Speaker 1: years straight. They will crown last year June they got

1555
01:36:16,840 --> 01:36:20,000
Speaker 1: the crowned by hip hop. So not hip hop is

1556
01:36:20,040 --> 01:36:24,000
Speaker 1: the number one genre. It's hip hop rock country, didn't

1557
01:36:24,000 --> 01:36:28,160
Speaker 1: pop or pop country something like that. Right, knowing what

1558
01:36:28,320 --> 01:36:31,880
Speaker 1: you know now and where you at now, would you

1559
01:36:32,439 --> 01:36:37,360
Speaker 1: do you feel like you have any regrets? Plenty of regrets.

1560
01:36:37,920 --> 01:36:40,880
Speaker 1: Let me regret. Listen, will my father always told me

1561
01:36:42,040 --> 01:36:45,400
Speaker 1: you have to take both good and bad in life,

1562
01:36:45,560 --> 01:36:48,840
Speaker 1: because what happens is you can't just love the good, right,

1563
01:36:48,840 --> 01:36:51,160
Speaker 1: because if you just love the goods, you love the bad.

1564
01:36:52,040 --> 01:36:56,639
Speaker 1: The bad is what helps you. That's that says They's

1565
01:36:56,640 --> 01:37:00,120
Speaker 1: say you gotta love hell al right, meaning you have

1566
01:37:00,240 --> 01:37:04,000
Speaker 1: to action go through how to come out. But what

1567
01:37:04,080 --> 01:37:06,679
Speaker 1: I'm saying is, when you look at what you're doing

1568
01:37:06,880 --> 01:37:13,160
Speaker 1: right now, right, you probably never sought after your first

1569
01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:16,080
Speaker 1: cause you want your second curve right now, maybe about third.

1570
01:37:16,160 --> 01:37:25,320
Speaker 1: But gay, I have an old SPAN's career. Yeah, I left,

1571
01:37:25,400 --> 01:37:41,439
Speaker 1: y'all mean no problem. I mean podcast for I'm so sorry.

1572
01:37:43,520 --> 01:37:49,080
Speaker 1: Don't you feel like this is the best thing that

1573
01:37:49,160 --> 01:37:52,880
Speaker 1: ever happened to you? Best music? Hip hop? I mean

1574
01:37:53,200 --> 01:37:58,519
Speaker 1: yes hip hop? I'm bro listen. Yeah, even with all

1575
01:37:58,600 --> 01:38:03,680
Speaker 1: my travels probably got tim and to travel right, and

1576
01:38:03,800 --> 01:38:06,960
Speaker 1: all my success, all my accolades and everything, I'm still

1577
01:38:07,439 --> 01:38:11,720
Speaker 1: got that gonna suck. I'm still marvel at this what

1578
01:38:12,160 --> 01:38:15,280
Speaker 1: harp hop have led me to be that I agree

1579
01:38:15,520 --> 01:38:17,200
Speaker 1: you know say I'm saying to you, And I don't

1580
01:38:17,200 --> 01:38:20,800
Speaker 1: want I don't want to keep being laboring the point.

1581
01:38:22,680 --> 01:38:26,439
Speaker 1: But I just always want to give things, man, because

1582
01:38:26,479 --> 01:38:32,160
Speaker 1: it's just so beautiful. Slow platform, slow flat. That's you

1583
01:38:32,200 --> 01:38:39,000
Speaker 1: guys do that with aggression. Now that's real ship because

1584
01:38:39,040 --> 01:38:43,519
Speaker 1: the thing about it is that's where where where where

1585
01:38:43,720 --> 01:38:48,439
Speaker 1: ship is where music can actually bring with what you

1586
01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:51,200
Speaker 1: so and then you gotta think about what music actually

1587
01:38:51,560 --> 01:38:56,559
Speaker 1: is like if you ever seen like Mosaic, are all

1588
01:38:56,640 --> 01:39:01,559
Speaker 1: these picassos, they start with a white paint, right, that's

1589
01:39:01,560 --> 01:39:05,639
Speaker 1: what music is. Music. We start with nothing. It starts

1590
01:39:05,680 --> 01:39:09,000
Speaker 1: you to be the guy can be in the studio.

1591
01:39:10,640 --> 01:39:14,880
Speaker 1: Maybe he's not, but the beach just plays. And we

1592
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:21,000
Speaker 1: just think of this and you raise something out of nothing,

1593
01:39:21,160 --> 01:39:27,840
Speaker 1: and that should always be saluted. They should always be respected.

1594
01:39:28,520 --> 01:39:33,880
Speaker 1: And I just want to say as a musician, as

1595
01:39:33,920 --> 01:39:38,880
Speaker 1: a person who who they quote unquote saying, you know

1596
01:39:38,960 --> 01:39:41,599
Speaker 1: who sat in the locker room. That's the reason why

1597
01:39:41,680 --> 01:39:43,760
Speaker 1: me and my partner DJ he offends to the right

1598
01:39:43,840 --> 01:39:47,599
Speaker 1: of me. Um, they say that is why the dream

1599
01:39:47,680 --> 01:39:51,400
Speaker 1: Champs work. But because we actually he's actually a real DJ.

1600
01:39:51,880 --> 01:39:55,160
Speaker 1: This is this is not no fucking DJ, that fucking

1601
01:39:56,760 --> 01:40:02,600
Speaker 1: he still won't funk with the rock pever. I just

1602
01:40:04,760 --> 01:40:08,640
Speaker 1: find this guy. He still wants to bring crates and

1603
01:40:08,840 --> 01:40:10,559
Speaker 1: that's and I take it to the club, no mother,

1604
01:40:12,520 --> 01:40:17,639
Speaker 1: but that that that's what like assists me. And I said, damn,

1605
01:40:18,000 --> 01:40:20,320
Speaker 1: that's like the essence of hip hop. Like I don't

1606
01:40:20,320 --> 01:40:23,639
Speaker 1: remember coming up going to London and these guys wouldn't

1607
01:40:23,680 --> 01:40:25,439
Speaker 1: let me go on the club because they wanted to

1608
01:40:25,479 --> 01:40:29,800
Speaker 1: do us spray paint component oriega before we walked in.

1609
01:40:29,920 --> 01:40:32,519
Speaker 1: And I was just like, what like niggas a hip

1610
01:40:32,600 --> 01:40:36,320
Speaker 1: hop like that, Like we're not really doing like we

1611
01:40:36,479 --> 01:40:40,479
Speaker 1: love hip hop. Niggas ain't st and the breakdances. That

1612
01:40:43,080 --> 01:40:45,680
Speaker 1: really doing that in New York. I'm just telling you.

1613
01:40:46,240 --> 01:40:49,760
Speaker 1: But they didn't like And I'm like, oh my god.

1614
01:40:51,520 --> 01:40:52,560
Speaker 1: You know, but you know what it is when you

1615
01:40:52,640 --> 01:40:56,840
Speaker 1: go outside, when you go outside of America, they have

1616
01:40:57,040 --> 01:41:01,440
Speaker 1: such an affinity for the cult you. We take advantage.

1617
01:41:01,560 --> 01:41:08,240
Speaker 1: We basically take advantage to coach. I take yes, they

1618
01:41:08,280 --> 01:41:10,479
Speaker 1: don't care, you know what I mean. It's like, but

1619
01:41:10,640 --> 01:41:15,000
Speaker 1: I can tell you stories like I remember when Nicks

1671
01:45:03,160 --> 01:45:04,560
Speaker 1: something to do with the boom box wasn't in on.

1672
01:45:05,560 --> 01:45:10,800
Speaker 1: He just happened to be. We saw everything this got

1673
01:45:10,920 --> 01:45:12,360
Speaker 1: back in the day. Man, it was just one of

1674
01:45:12,400 --> 01:45:19,160
Speaker 1: the moment man, this story. Oh my god, I could

1675
01:45:19,200 --> 01:45:24,280
Speaker 1: actually see it. Tell you, man, ship you know that's

1676
01:45:24,320 --> 01:45:27,680
Speaker 1: how I got introduced to hip hop. That's correct. And

1677
01:45:27,800 --> 01:45:31,280
Speaker 1: then I saw the influence of hip hop a year later. Okay,

1678
01:45:31,320 --> 01:45:34,799
Speaker 1: so let's just throw us out there. Your first memory

1679
01:45:34,960 --> 01:45:39,400
Speaker 1: of hip hop was you got jump. You had a

1680
01:45:39,439 --> 01:45:42,280
Speaker 1: negative impact. I would not think that that would be

1681
01:45:42,400 --> 01:45:46,160
Speaker 1: in profession, I feel, because you know, like a mechanic,

1682
01:45:46,240 --> 01:45:48,720
Speaker 1: like if his first job as a mechanic was like

1683
01:45:49,000 --> 01:45:54,880
Speaker 1: getting his thumbs like it's just like I'm good care,

1684
01:45:55,560 --> 01:45:58,360
Speaker 1: but you actually got dumb and said i'n't going to

1685
01:45:58,400 --> 01:46:01,760
Speaker 1: funk with this. It was just it was that you know,

1686
01:46:02,040 --> 01:46:06,080
Speaker 1: you knew it was something. Man, It was that that

1687
01:46:06,280 --> 01:46:08,200
Speaker 1: hip hop? It just I didn't know what it was,

1688
01:46:08,280 --> 01:46:11,479
Speaker 1: but you funked it like and then you start, you

1689
01:46:11,560 --> 01:46:14,320
Speaker 1: start doing the breakdancing all that ship and when you

1690
01:46:14,680 --> 01:46:16,799
Speaker 1: this is when I knew hip hop was gonna be crazy.

1691
01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:20,320
Speaker 1: It's when for the very first time I saw Michael

1692
01:46:20,400 --> 01:46:23,160
Speaker 1: Jackson perform on Motown twenty five. I didn't know who

1693
01:46:23,200 --> 01:46:24,800
Speaker 1: the fun he was because I was a young kid

1694
01:46:25,120 --> 01:46:28,080
Speaker 1: and I don't know what multi total five is. Moretown

1695
01:46:28,120 --> 01:46:31,680
Speaker 1: twenty five is when Michael Jackson first performed Billy Jean

1696
01:46:31,840 --> 01:46:35,920
Speaker 1: to the world Billy and you get the More. That

1697
01:46:36,040 --> 01:46:40,080
Speaker 1: was the first time that hip hop says that one.

1698
01:46:41,400 --> 01:46:45,880
Speaker 1: But that kid, you've been going for first sing along.

1699
01:46:47,240 --> 01:46:55,679
Speaker 1: I've been trying. You got you never had, So Michael

1700
01:46:55,760 --> 01:46:57,960
Speaker 1: jacks can do the moon walk. No, I've seen Michael

1701
01:46:58,000 --> 01:47:00,680
Speaker 1: Jackson the More. That was the first he did the

1702
01:47:00,840 --> 01:47:04,479
Speaker 1: first time, first time in the world. So Michael, let

1703
01:47:04,560 --> 01:47:06,560
Speaker 1: me tell you something. Let me tell how the impactful

1704
01:47:06,640 --> 01:47:09,840
Speaker 1: Michael Jackson she was. I went to school the next day.

1705
01:47:12,720 --> 01:47:15,280
Speaker 1: The multipoint was clear, what's your pride? But I was

1706
01:47:15,320 --> 01:47:17,600
Speaker 1: one that ship? Right? Okay? But what's school was this?

1707
01:47:18,800 --> 01:47:23,560
Speaker 1: You're no I'm in Jersey now sixth grade? What you

1708
01:47:23,640 --> 01:47:28,840
Speaker 1: know what part of Jersey? Remember? Yeah? Like Irverton, Wait

1709
01:47:28,880 --> 01:47:33,400
Speaker 1: with Latifa from Let me ja, he wasn't everything. Let

1710
01:47:33,439 --> 01:47:36,200
Speaker 1: me just I went to Irbton recently. It's still terrible

1711
01:47:36,280 --> 01:47:40,840
Speaker 1: with Everton. Throw that out here. That's what I had

1712
01:47:40,880 --> 01:47:43,400
Speaker 1: to get the funk out there around there. I didn't

1713
01:47:43,400 --> 01:47:45,320
Speaker 1: even know what I thought that thing was like, because

1714
01:47:45,320 --> 01:47:48,680
Speaker 1: New York is like rough, but it's like rock. Do

1715
01:47:48,800 --> 01:47:52,320
Speaker 1: you know what's rough? For? Urbanton is like nobody don't

1716
01:47:52,360 --> 01:47:55,840
Speaker 1: care Jesus. But at that time it wasn't that rough.

1717
01:47:55,920 --> 01:47:58,960
Speaker 1: But but anyway, so we go to the school and

1718
01:47:59,240 --> 01:48:02,559
Speaker 1: I never forget is the principal get on allowed speaker

1719
01:48:03,680 --> 01:48:06,840
Speaker 1: and he says, we're gonna do our morning prayer. He says,

1720
01:48:06,880 --> 01:48:09,360
Speaker 1: after we do our prayer, I don't know. I'm sure

1721
01:48:09,400 --> 01:48:11,960
Speaker 1: a lot of you guys probably would sleep. But I

1722
01:48:12,120 --> 01:48:16,400
Speaker 1: witnessed the most incredible thing in my life. Whytching. Michael

1723
01:48:16,479 --> 01:48:19,400
Speaker 1: Jackson performed last night where his brothers was so incredible.

1724
01:48:19,880 --> 01:48:22,479
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you guys a whole day off. Y'all

1725
01:48:22,479 --> 01:48:27,400
Speaker 1: can leave off the prayer, and he left school principle

1726
01:48:27,520 --> 01:48:37,040
Speaker 1: the principle I don't know what to say. I'm just saying.

1727
01:48:37,080 --> 01:48:45,880
Speaker 1: I'm saying that's that's between Run DMC and at school. Yo, listen,

1728
01:48:46,240 --> 01:48:49,639
Speaker 1: that's the impact. I remember this is Abler came out

1729
01:48:52,240 --> 01:48:57,960
Speaker 1: definitely there. I was seven to seven. You wasn't paying it.

1730
01:48:58,120 --> 01:49:02,240
Speaker 1: You was in the hoods four alright, So I was

1731
01:49:02,400 --> 01:49:09,760
Speaker 1: alive seven. But but the point I'm saying to you

1732
01:49:09,920 --> 01:49:14,080
Speaker 1: is is that seeing what I've heard was run DMC

1733
01:49:14,479 --> 01:49:17,680
Speaker 1: and seeing anybody doing this thing, and then able to

1734
01:49:17,880 --> 01:49:21,880
Speaker 1: see it by this guy who's supposed to be this

1735
01:49:22,040 --> 01:49:26,200
Speaker 1: mega star taking a piece of our culture. Prime example,

1736
01:49:26,280 --> 01:49:29,240
Speaker 1: you look at Super Bowl, this ship of all the

1737
01:49:29,360 --> 01:49:33,479
Speaker 1: ads has some hip hop influence. Thank you. This is

1738
01:49:33,600 --> 01:49:37,439
Speaker 1: the crazy. So you gotta say to yourself, that's how

1739
01:49:37,600 --> 01:49:40,600
Speaker 1: impactful the culture is. That's the whole point I was

1740
01:49:40,640 --> 01:49:42,120
Speaker 1: trying to make. I'm not trying to bring you back

1741
01:49:42,160 --> 01:49:45,519
Speaker 1: to the moon. Well, I'm just telling you how I

1742
01:49:45,800 --> 01:49:48,200
Speaker 1: felt at that time when I was getting jumped and

1743
01:49:48,240 --> 01:49:51,240
Speaker 1: I heard run DMC, and then so Michael, and then

1744
01:49:51,560 --> 01:49:54,640
Speaker 1: now we're here, No, but you got dumped and so

1745
01:49:54,840 --> 01:49:57,920
Speaker 1: all career that's hard. Like I've never heard a vers

1746
01:50:00,040 --> 01:50:04,040
Speaker 1: the same time negative positive. That's so deal. It's like

1747
01:50:04,200 --> 01:50:09,840
Speaker 1: if I'm gonna do that, like that's like, that's fantastic.

1748
01:50:10,479 --> 01:50:13,640
Speaker 1: So um, do you ever like sit back and for

1749
01:50:13,760 --> 01:50:18,720
Speaker 1: like and and is there anything that you regret? I

1750
01:50:18,880 --> 01:50:22,719
Speaker 1: can't because I think the minute I started regretting anything,

1751
01:50:23,400 --> 01:50:25,880
Speaker 1: I feel like my blessing is gonna be taken away

1752
01:50:25,920 --> 01:50:30,080
Speaker 1: from you. Because when the universe it's never gonna be

1753
01:50:30,160 --> 01:50:33,840
Speaker 1: all good. Part of what makes the character is how

1754
01:50:33,920 --> 01:50:37,080
Speaker 1: do you deal with ship is not going the way

1755
01:50:37,280 --> 01:50:39,680
Speaker 1: it needs to go forwarder? You know they said, my

1756
01:50:39,760 --> 01:50:42,360
Speaker 1: dad told me this one time. He said, before you

1757
01:50:42,520 --> 01:50:51,000
Speaker 1: reach success, your comfort zone has to be disrupted. You

1758
01:50:51,040 --> 01:50:53,040
Speaker 1: see what I'm saying to you know, I feel you

1759
01:50:53,200 --> 01:50:58,120
Speaker 1: say too much, but you know what I'm saying. So

1760
01:50:58,360 --> 01:51:00,600
Speaker 1: so I can't regret anything, man, I have because my

1761
01:51:00,720 --> 01:51:03,640
Speaker 1: regret is what someone mus They always say that. They

1762
01:51:03,720 --> 01:51:07,680
Speaker 1: always say that, you know, before like the you know,

1763
01:51:07,960 --> 01:51:10,559
Speaker 1: the big ship happens, you've got to go through something,

1764
01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:19,280
Speaker 1: so so hearing that it's crazy and they're not gonna

1765
01:51:19,640 --> 01:51:24,200
Speaker 1: they can't weather that. And around the corner right always

1766
01:51:24,280 --> 01:51:29,360
Speaker 1: darks before dawn, like it's always darking before dawn. So

1767
01:51:31,320 --> 01:51:37,160
Speaker 1: don't regret. I don't even when it's when I'm facing

1768
01:51:37,280 --> 01:51:41,240
Speaker 1: my darkest moments, man, my darkest hour man. I always

1769
01:51:41,280 --> 01:51:45,519
Speaker 1: say there's a reason behind us. But in the whole

1770
01:51:45,600 --> 01:51:49,120
Speaker 1: I left your career, is there anything you personally could

1771
01:51:49,160 --> 01:51:51,599
Speaker 1: have said, you know what, I wish I would did

1772
01:51:51,800 --> 01:51:55,800
Speaker 1: this part? Yeah, you could say that, but you know why,

1773
01:51:55,960 --> 01:51:58,880
Speaker 1: to keep things together. I don't know. Maybe it was something.

1774
01:52:00,080 --> 01:52:01,960
Speaker 1: I know where you're going with this. You mean, do

1775
01:52:02,120 --> 01:52:06,040
Speaker 1: I wish the Foojis would have lasted? You always say like, oh,

1776
01:52:06,240 --> 01:52:09,400
Speaker 1: maybe you could have done an It wasn't supposed to

1777
01:52:09,600 --> 01:52:12,720
Speaker 1: be like that, bro, like the way this ship ended.

1778
01:52:12,880 --> 01:52:15,599
Speaker 1: Because you gotta remember something, during the whole Foojie ship,

1779
01:52:15,800 --> 01:52:18,920
Speaker 1: I knew I wasn't on the Titanic, so I just

1780
01:52:19,000 --> 01:52:23,719
Speaker 1: made sure that my class. You're gonna wait too fast.

1781
01:52:24,880 --> 01:52:32,599
Speaker 1: It's because you went there. You said the whole time

1782
01:52:32,920 --> 01:52:35,920
Speaker 1: on being in the foods, you knew he was on

1783
01:52:36,040 --> 01:52:42,800
Speaker 1: the Titanic. Everybody knows that's here. The Titanic definitely hit

1784
01:52:42,840 --> 01:52:47,040
Speaker 1: the iceberg. Yes, I had my life best on. So

1785
01:52:47,200 --> 01:52:49,479
Speaker 1: you knew that from like from the bank that from

1786
01:52:49,640 --> 01:52:56,080
Speaker 1: day one you knew that this will sink eventual, hundred percent, okay,

1787
01:52:56,280 --> 01:53:00,559
Speaker 1: So that continued. What the fund was that you would

1788
01:53:03,320 --> 01:53:06,599
Speaker 1: look at that, look at that that you know I'm skilled.

1789
01:53:08,080 --> 01:53:13,360
Speaker 1: I wasn't prepared, but I also was prepared. So you're

1790
01:53:13,360 --> 01:53:17,040
Speaker 1: saying that you knew that it's a success liner, right,

1791
01:53:17,120 --> 01:53:21,360
Speaker 1: because you guys actually reached a certain amount of success

1792
01:53:25,439 --> 01:53:32,000
Speaker 1: and regret not not that he said he knew no regrets.

1793
01:53:32,920 --> 01:53:35,599
Speaker 1: Based on that we've got out of the noret, correct.

1794
01:53:38,560 --> 01:53:40,840
Speaker 1: So you see the success, How do you how do

1795
01:53:40,920 --> 01:53:47,480
Speaker 1: you visualize that this success? Me stop or me alternate?

1796
01:53:48,160 --> 01:53:55,120
Speaker 1: Because I knew. I knew it was a bit morbid

1797
01:53:55,479 --> 01:54:00,400
Speaker 1: what was happening inside of the whole cave, if you will,

1798
01:54:01,680 --> 01:54:07,479
Speaker 1: you know, So it was inevitable something was gonna happen, right.

1799
01:54:07,800 --> 01:54:11,720
Speaker 1: So that's the thing about success. You gotta prepared. You know,

1800
01:54:12,520 --> 01:54:15,720
Speaker 1: you hope for the best, but you planning for the worst. Right,

1801
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:19,519
Speaker 1: So I knew, That's like I said to you, because

1802
01:54:19,600 --> 01:54:22,280
Speaker 1: if I didn't know, because it was so easy to

1803
01:54:22,479 --> 01:54:27,080
Speaker 1: be in that whirlpool and thinking, like Joe, this is

1804
01:54:27,080 --> 01:54:30,479
Speaker 1: gonna last forever. Right, And let me tell you what's

1805
01:54:30,520 --> 01:54:35,160
Speaker 1: deep about at the end of the day, everyone, the

1806
01:54:35,280 --> 01:54:40,240
Speaker 1: only person you can really count on is yourself, and

1807
01:54:40,360 --> 01:54:42,720
Speaker 1: it's harder when you ain't the group. Because the thing

1808
01:54:42,920 --> 01:54:45,920
Speaker 1: is you may have a vision like I had a

1809
01:54:46,040 --> 01:54:49,120
Speaker 1: vision because I put the ship together when Van Lauren

1810
01:54:50,080 --> 01:54:52,960
Speaker 1: found class. We never got to that we're going to

1811
01:54:53,080 --> 01:55:00,120
Speaker 1: that later. So so so I knew like, okay, this

1812
01:55:00,240 --> 01:55:04,040
Speaker 1: is cool. But if I believe the hype at that time,

1813
01:55:04,120 --> 01:55:08,400
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be sitting here right now. I'll be funked

1814
01:55:08,480 --> 01:55:11,440
Speaker 1: up in the game right now what I'm saying too.

1815
01:55:11,920 --> 01:55:15,480
Speaker 1: So I always looked at it like I love the art,

1816
01:55:15,680 --> 01:55:18,840
Speaker 1: I love this ship, this is incredible, and put on

1817
01:55:18,920 --> 01:55:21,440
Speaker 1: my life. That's I mean, that ship hit the iceberg.

1818
01:55:22,000 --> 01:55:24,160
Speaker 1: There's a little boat right down there. I'm gonna jump

1819
01:55:24,240 --> 01:55:27,760
Speaker 1: off that fucking ship laying on that boat and go ashore.

1820
01:55:28,400 --> 01:55:32,000
Speaker 1: That's I always looked at it. This is crazy. Gross.

1821
01:55:32,080 --> 01:55:39,560
Speaker 1: I can't what you're saying. It's not crazy. So you're

1822
01:55:39,600 --> 01:55:44,160
Speaker 1: saying want the beginning, you know there was a possibility,

1823
01:55:44,320 --> 01:55:47,120
Speaker 1: that not a possibility, it was inevitable. You know that

1824
01:55:47,200 --> 01:55:54,800
Speaker 1: world means like don't matter what, and you've prepared yourself

1825
01:55:54,880 --> 01:55:59,800
Speaker 1: for bro I'm sitting here right now right okay, I'll

1826
01:55:59,840 --> 01:56:02,400
Speaker 1: just saying it's just it's just I just definitely not

1827
01:56:02,560 --> 01:56:04,760
Speaker 1: that small and there's nothing but by the way, no, no, no,

1828
01:56:04,840 --> 01:56:08,000
Speaker 1: but but I'm gonna say this to you. I wouldn't

1829
01:56:08,280 --> 01:56:13,440
Speaker 1: change a thing. That's what deeper body, because if I had,

1830
01:56:13,680 --> 01:56:17,200
Speaker 1: if anything would have changed, it would change. I wouldn't

1831
01:56:17,200 --> 01:56:19,360
Speaker 1: be seeing here right now now. I don't know if okay,

1832
01:56:19,560 --> 01:56:24,120
Speaker 1: mainly I would have been a dollar richer maybe right,

1833
01:56:24,680 --> 01:56:27,280
Speaker 1: maybe I don't know what would have happened, but it

1834
01:56:27,360 --> 01:56:29,920
Speaker 1: wouldn't be right. What's happening right now? And you're saying

1835
01:56:30,160 --> 01:56:35,480
Speaker 1: whatever you did, whatever, how everything's transpired, you can sleep

1836
01:56:35,560 --> 01:56:39,560
Speaker 1: good that name, yo, when I sleep in my fret sheets.

01:57:21,760 --> 01:57:23,600
Speaker 1: You know why I sleep well because I know that,

1845
01:57:24,240 --> 01:57:27,680
Speaker 1: First of all, I never robbed the person. I've always

1846
01:57:27,720 --> 01:57:32,160
Speaker 1: been a person of my words and more importantly, my

1847
01:57:32,320 --> 01:57:40,120
Speaker 1: two counterparts. I'm extreely happy for everything they've done. That's

Speaker 1: ten favorite rappers to day. And if I really want

1852
01:57:53,240 --> 01:57:56,600
Speaker 1: to stretch it, maybe top ten put together. But I

1853
01:57:56,640 --> 01:58:03,760
Speaker 1: don't fall all right. So that's that's that's that's that's

Speaker 1: Before we even funk with each other, I will run

1862
01:58:46,280 --> 01:58:49,240
Speaker 1: into him and then I think one time I ran

1863
01:58:49,280 --> 01:58:55,240
Speaker 1: to him at the airport. It was always love. Yeah, yeah,

1864
01:58:55,240 --> 01:59:00,360
Speaker 1: that's it was that man. And it's like I never

01:59:00,800 --> 01:59:03,240
Speaker 1: was on something like whatever type because you got something,

1866
01:59:03,600 --> 01:59:06,120
Speaker 1: you know, we've got something. Niggas and feel like the

1867
01:59:06,200 --> 01:59:09,560
Speaker 1: old niggas like I don't know what come of, right,

1868
01:59:09,760 --> 01:59:12,280
Speaker 1: So that's the part that you guys can't relate to

1869
01:59:12,480 --> 01:59:15,560
Speaker 1: us is certain people look at us like, nigga don't

1870
01:59:15,600 --> 01:59:17,160
Speaker 1: have to wait like the nigga. We ain't been in

1872
01:59:21,280 --> 01:59:24,440
Speaker 1: but that. But but also that's the new nigga mentality

1873
01:59:25,040 --> 01:59:27,440
Speaker 1: is I want to be there. And that's that's the

1874
01:59:27,480 --> 01:59:29,440
Speaker 1: reason why I get the funk out there way immediately,

1875
01:59:29,720 --> 01:59:31,200
Speaker 1: Like I think a come from left right and they

1876
01:59:31,240 --> 01:59:35,280
Speaker 1: want to roun I'm like, good, like, I don't want this,

1877
01:59:36,320 --> 01:59:39,320
Speaker 1: this is yours all you But the thing about it

1878
01:59:39,560 --> 01:59:42,360
Speaker 1: is and then people like you know, oh no, don't

1879
01:59:42,600 --> 01:59:44,680
Speaker 1: kick a left right, oh the kick or something, and

1880
01:59:44,760 --> 01:59:47,839
Speaker 1: then it makes it little they can think that homie,

1881
01:59:48,880 --> 01:59:54,080
Speaker 1: we respect. There's people who actually is good, want the

1882
01:59:54,160 --> 01:59:57,160
Speaker 1: new generation and want to say, you know, looks y'all turn.

1883
01:59:58,120 --> 02:00:01,560
Speaker 1: But sometimes the new generation what I'm saying, y'all, but

1884
02:00:01,600 --> 02:00:04,800
Speaker 1: I'm saying as people who representing the new generation that

1885
02:00:05,000 --> 02:00:07,360
Speaker 1: people that they don't recognize that, you know what I'm saying,

02:01:07,760 --> 02:01:11,680

1914
02:02:00,000 --> 02:02:02,960
Speaker 1: this is a beautiful thing when we can sit together

1915
02:02:03,120 --> 02:02:07,920
Speaker 1: as hip hop and just sit down and the accomplishments

1916

02:02:30,600 --> 02:02:33,400

1921
02:02:33,520 --> 02:02:36,280
Speaker 1: still happy. And the thing that's that's the thing about

1922
02:02:36,840 --> 02:02:40,880
Speaker 1: us as ogs right is we receive a lot of

1923
02:02:41,000 --> 02:02:46,240
Speaker 1: flash because a lot of the ogs ain't happy. Well

1924
02:02:46,400 --> 02:02:50,360
Speaker 1: they they're not happy because once again, we don't have

1925
02:02:50,520 --> 02:02:55,320
Speaker 1: a coalition to protect them after it's done. And it's

1926
02:02:55,360 --> 02:02:58,800
Speaker 1: like every they contribution that they've done, right, think about

1927
02:02:58,800 --> 02:03:01,640
Speaker 1: like these guys, they they contributed into this hip hop

1928
02:03:01,760 --> 02:03:03,440
Speaker 1: to take it through this in level right, just keep

1929
02:03:03,480 --> 02:03:07,320
Speaker 1: expanding because it's number one now, right, so ten twenty

1930
02:03:07,400 --> 02:03:10,720
Speaker 1: years from now, if he's not one of the lucky ones,

1931
02:03:11,040 --> 02:03:14,680
Speaker 1: that got out see the NFL, the NBA, they got

1932
02:03:14,800 --> 02:03:18,240
Speaker 1: pension plan, they got all, oh Jay, this thing is

1933
02:03:18,280 --> 02:03:20,720
Speaker 1: one of the Vegas chilling Why because he got a

1934
02:03:20,760 --> 02:03:25,600
Speaker 1: pension plan? Right, we don't have that. So they upset

1935
02:03:26,040 --> 02:03:28,200
Speaker 1: because not everybody's going to hit it out the park.

1936
02:03:28,280 --> 02:03:30,120
Speaker 1: Let's keep the ship o the way rail right. Not

1937
02:03:30,280 --> 02:03:33,640
Speaker 1: everyone is going to have a hundred millions streaming, not

1938
02:03:33,800 --> 02:03:37,000
Speaker 1: even gonna sell twenty million records. So what about the

1939
02:03:37,040 --> 02:03:40,760
Speaker 1: ones that maybe just doing a little something right, Like inside,

1940
02:03:41,400 --> 02:03:44,360
Speaker 1: you don't have to be Denzel to have insurance plan.

1941
02:03:44,760 --> 02:03:47,320
Speaker 1: You got. You either got to make a minimum or

1942
02:03:47,440 --> 02:03:50,640
Speaker 1: you just pay some monthly shot really thing whatever, and

1943
02:03:50,720 --> 02:03:54,080
Speaker 1: you part a SAG and you got health insurance. These

1944
02:03:54,240 --> 02:03:57,480
Speaker 1: old geez is looking at it like, man, yo, I

1945
02:03:57,600 --> 02:03:59,920
Speaker 1: remember when I was pulling in fifty racks and nights,

1946
02:04:00,000 --> 02:04:02,560
Speaker 1: have any racks to night, thinking it's gonna last forever,

1947
02:04:02,680 --> 02:04:04,520
Speaker 1: And now I don't have anything to go to, no

1948
02:04:04,640 --> 02:04:08,200
Speaker 1: one to turn to. Right. Can you imagine being hot

1949
02:04:08,320 --> 02:04:10,160
Speaker 1: for like ten years and then you gotta go trying

1950
02:04:10,160 --> 02:04:16,040
Speaker 1: to find a job. This is hard man, worst night man.

1951
02:04:16,960 --> 02:04:19,000
Speaker 1: So that's why they feel I think you know this

1952
02:04:19,720 --> 02:04:23,040
Speaker 1: now that doesn't give an excuse because listen, gotta lay

1953
02:04:23,080 --> 02:04:25,720
Speaker 1: in the bed you made, right, It's just how it is.

1954
02:04:25,800 --> 02:04:27,840
Speaker 1: You should find a way to figure this ship out.

1955
02:04:27,880 --> 02:04:30,760
Speaker 1: Like I said to you, I figured it out because

1956
02:04:30,840 --> 02:04:34,080
Speaker 1: I knew I was on the titanant. And so because

1957
02:04:34,440 --> 02:04:39,160
Speaker 1: when you have a crew, a group, you gotta you

1958
02:04:39,640 --> 02:04:42,440
Speaker 1: all gotta be in concert. If one person is singing

1959
02:04:42,480 --> 02:04:47,120
Speaker 1: off key, it fox everything up. So now your life

1960
02:04:47,920 --> 02:04:51,320
Speaker 1: it's in that person's hand if they decided, like, man,

1961
02:04:51,360 --> 02:04:53,200
Speaker 1: I ain't going I don't want to go right with you.

1962
02:04:53,280 --> 02:04:55,440
Speaker 1: I don't want to go left with you. You left

1963
02:04:55,480 --> 02:04:58,600
Speaker 1: holding an empty bag. So I always knew that ship.

1964
02:04:58,640 --> 02:05:02,600
Speaker 1: I was like, yo, justin Kate, because I have. But

1965
02:05:02,720 --> 02:05:05,840
Speaker 1: why did you actually feel you was on something that

1966
02:05:06,120 --> 02:05:09,280
Speaker 1: wasn't gonna work for years? Like? Wow? Like because you know,

1967
02:05:09,320 --> 02:05:14,240
Speaker 1: because I'll be honest with you, right, I never thought

1968
02:05:14,400 --> 02:05:18,720
Speaker 1: like you know me, trash compone, we just sat down.

1969
02:05:18,880 --> 02:05:21,120
Speaker 1: I just thought it would be together for it forever.

1970
02:05:21,480 --> 02:05:25,800
Speaker 1: But you know it didn't make me. I feel like

1971
02:05:26,720 --> 02:05:29,880
Speaker 1: I have to or going to do something on my

1972
02:05:30,000 --> 02:05:34,280
Speaker 1: own until I found something wrong. But you're saying prior

1973
02:05:34,360 --> 02:05:36,520
Speaker 1: to that, You're saying prior you're saying just even when

1974
02:05:36,640 --> 02:05:39,600
Speaker 1: y'all was at the happiest moment, you felt like he

1975
02:05:39,720 --> 02:05:41,640
Speaker 1: was on something that's gonna So let me say this you.

1976
02:05:42,360 --> 02:05:49,400
Speaker 1: So there's there's what success means. All success is it

1977
02:05:49,720 --> 02:05:56,280
Speaker 1: just amplifies who that individual is really is already. So mean,

1978
02:05:56,480 --> 02:05:59,240
Speaker 1: like if I'm a quiet person and I become super rich,

1979
02:05:59,320 --> 02:06:02,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna become a hermit. If I'm like hermit crab,

1980
02:06:03,520 --> 02:06:07,640
Speaker 1: hermit me somebody who just sit somewhere. Okay, So that's

1981
02:06:07,640 --> 02:06:09,760
Speaker 1: what they called herman crab, right, because that's why they

1982
02:06:09,840 --> 02:06:16,000
Speaker 1: call it. I'm sorry, I'm plas Okay. If you're an asshole,

1983
02:06:16,200 --> 02:06:19,200
Speaker 1: you're a small asshole, you're gonna be a bigger gonna

1984
02:06:19,240 --> 02:06:24,280
Speaker 1: be a bigger fucking asshole. So I kind of like

1985
02:06:24,920 --> 02:06:28,240
Speaker 1: because because I wasn't college psychology, but that doesn't make

1986
02:06:28,280 --> 02:06:35,040
Speaker 1: me a psychoanalysis expert. I just kind of liked kind

1987
02:06:35,080 --> 02:06:37,600
Speaker 1: of understanding a little bit, a little like you're analyzing

1988
02:06:37,640 --> 02:06:41,360
Speaker 1: a lot, right, So I saw the traits of like

1989
02:06:43,800 --> 02:06:47,960
Speaker 1: make sure that's coming. I'm crazy meaning meaning because at

1990
02:06:48,000 --> 02:06:50,280
Speaker 1: the end of the day, like like I mean, honestly,

1991
02:06:50,440 --> 02:06:53,680
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to be as human as possible. That

1992
02:06:53,760 --> 02:06:59,480
Speaker 1: this is just human if I'm looking at the person

1993
02:06:59,600 --> 02:07:01,280
Speaker 1: to the to me, and I'm looking at the persons

1994
02:07:01,320 --> 02:07:05,000
Speaker 1: that lofe me right, and we're all broke, right, I

1995
02:07:05,080 --> 02:07:07,360
Speaker 1: don't know if that's your case. Yeah, we all were broke.

1996
02:07:08,200 --> 02:07:09,680
Speaker 1: But what I'm saying this is I'm looking at a

1997
02:07:09,760 --> 02:07:13,400
Speaker 1: poem and I'm looking at track, and I'm saying, okay,

1998
02:07:13,600 --> 02:07:21,760
Speaker 1: boom tracks can be uh hormnified, U enlightened a couple.

1999
02:07:21,840 --> 02:07:24,640
Speaker 1: But I think that I know who he is, right,

2000
02:07:25,040 --> 02:07:27,040
Speaker 1: and the same thing without a poem, I know he is,

2001
02:07:27,560 --> 02:07:29,920
Speaker 1: but there was a part where you just knew. No,

2002
02:07:30,000 --> 02:07:35,600
Speaker 1: it's not that so thinking of it like this money

2003
02:07:35,760 --> 02:07:41,160
Speaker 1: and power, it's not meant for everyone because I've never

2004
02:07:41,240 --> 02:07:43,640
Speaker 1: had the money in power you guys had, So I

2005
02:07:43,760 --> 02:07:47,360
Speaker 1: don't know what the fun you're talking about because I've had.

2006
02:07:48,240 --> 02:07:53,080
Speaker 1: What I mean is I've went platinum, I've went four

2007
02:07:53,200 --> 02:07:58,080
Speaker 1: times ago, but I've never three. So let me get

2008
02:07:58,120 --> 02:08:02,120
Speaker 1: example across the powers. I don't think the type of

2009
02:08:02,160 --> 02:08:04,160
Speaker 1: power you're talking about, I might not be able to

2010
02:08:04,160 --> 02:08:07,320
Speaker 1: because Okay, well I'm actually as a student right now

2011
02:08:07,640 --> 02:08:08,840
Speaker 1: and I don't want to sit back and let you

2012
02:08:08,840 --> 02:08:12,360
Speaker 1: know what I'm just saying. So what happens is for example,

2013
02:08:12,640 --> 02:08:14,600
Speaker 1: and oh five I met Obama, right, somebody to this

2014
02:08:14,680 --> 02:08:17,840
Speaker 1: with the president at that time he was senator. I'm

2015
02:08:17,840 --> 02:08:21,680
Speaker 1: just giving example. I'm gonna truth quick example in Chicago, Chicago.

2016
02:08:22,640 --> 02:08:26,880
Speaker 1: So then Obama sixties about oh seven, he makes the announcement, sorry,

2017
02:08:26,920 --> 02:08:29,640
Speaker 1: oh six, he makes the announcement. We all knew him,

2018
02:08:29,680 --> 02:08:31,840
Speaker 1: we started to support him. Whatever, get the grass fool

2019
02:08:31,880 --> 02:08:37,040
Speaker 1: going on. He becomes president. He was a guy who

2020
02:08:37,800 --> 02:08:41,560
Speaker 1: now the most powerful man on land. Whatever. He still

2021
02:08:42,440 --> 02:08:47,800
Speaker 1: pretty much was not things going to change obviously, right,

2022
02:08:47,960 --> 02:08:49,920
Speaker 1: there's things that he's not going to be able to

2023
02:08:50,000 --> 02:08:52,000
Speaker 1: do that he did when he was a junior senator.

2024
02:08:52,880 --> 02:08:57,440
Speaker 1: But the essence of who he is stay in time. Now.

2025
02:08:57,800 --> 02:09:00,600
Speaker 1: I had another friend of mine, he what this guy is?

2026
02:09:00,720 --> 02:09:03,280
Speaker 1: She knows who is this guy named suet miki ak

2027
02:09:03,520 --> 02:09:09,680
Speaker 1: Michelle tell you I may become president of hating fact.

2028
02:09:10,400 --> 02:09:15,520
Speaker 1: So this dude, because he wasn't used to that kind

2029
02:09:15,560 --> 02:09:21,760
Speaker 1: of power, bro, power is like a drug. I like

2030
02:09:21,840 --> 02:09:27,760
Speaker 1: to see if you have a hot fucking record, try performing.

2031
02:09:28,040 --> 02:09:29,840
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something in front of a hundred

2032
02:09:29,840 --> 02:09:33,680
Speaker 1: thousand people, where if you dropped this record and everybody

2033
02:09:33,800 --> 02:09:37,960
Speaker 1: know that song, I promise you wings gonna come from

2034
02:09:38,040 --> 02:09:41,120
Speaker 1: your back and you're gonna think you can fly. That's

2035
02:09:41,160 --> 02:09:44,360
Speaker 1: the power. Right. So when you're getting all of this

2036
02:09:44,640 --> 02:09:47,560
Speaker 1: people who are enamored by you, who are like, oh

2037
02:09:47,600 --> 02:09:50,680
Speaker 1: my god, you this, you this, it does something to

2038
02:09:50,960 --> 02:09:55,360
Speaker 1: the psyche. Not everyone can handle it, you know, say

2039
02:09:55,360 --> 02:10:00,560
Speaker 1: I'm saying to you. So I knew and felt, yeah,

2040
02:10:00,680 --> 02:10:03,200
Speaker 1: this ain't gonna end well, but it's all good because

2041
02:10:03,200 --> 02:10:06,840
Speaker 1: it's a journey. I'm all about the journey, right, not

2042
02:10:07,040 --> 02:10:09,760
Speaker 1: so much about the end. But I knew I had

2043
02:10:09,840 --> 02:10:14,680
Speaker 1: to make sure my end it's gonna be secure. So

2044
02:10:15,200 --> 02:10:17,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go through all the bullshit because I love journeys,

2045
02:10:19,240 --> 02:10:23,120
Speaker 1: because that's what makes characters. Right. So I was with it.

2046
02:10:23,200 --> 02:10:31,320
Speaker 1: But I knew day one and I'm good. I thought

2047
02:10:31,320 --> 02:10:34,480
Speaker 1: it was still a great experience in despite now whatever,

2048
02:10:34,520 --> 02:10:37,920
Speaker 1: I wish things would have been different. Yeah, of course,

2049
02:10:37,960 --> 02:10:40,400
Speaker 1: why not Listen, I would have looked, if you win

2050
02:10:40,440 --> 02:10:43,600
Speaker 1: a championship, you're gonna want to win a couple more championships,

2051
02:10:44,080 --> 02:10:50,240
Speaker 1: right right, one is not enough? But hey, do you

2052
02:10:50,360 --> 02:10:54,960
Speaker 1: know the average person who gets in I can't even

2053
02:10:55,080 --> 02:11:00,680
Speaker 1: say they gotta win. So I'm good very day say

2054
02:11:00,720 --> 02:11:04,280
Speaker 1: that one something. The average person who's in not even

2055
02:11:04,360 --> 02:11:07,120
Speaker 1: the average person. The average person who's in the game

2056
02:11:08,800 --> 02:11:12,200
Speaker 1: can't even get one. Now I think about the average

2057
02:11:12,240 --> 02:11:14,280
Speaker 1: who was the game is above everybody else because they

2058
02:11:14,360 --> 02:11:16,440
Speaker 1: got the game. It's like an NBA nigga who's riding

2059
02:11:16,480 --> 02:11:18,760
Speaker 1: the bench is actually a hot nigger. He just can't.

2060
02:11:19,040 --> 02:11:21,560
Speaker 1: He just ain't hot enough to play on the court.

2061
02:11:21,680 --> 02:11:24,520
Speaker 1: But he hotter than everybody else who in the game.

2062
02:11:25,680 --> 02:11:28,160
Speaker 1: But he's riding the bench. He probably never dribbled the

2063
02:11:28,200 --> 02:11:34,520
Speaker 1: ball even at practice, but he hat and that nigga

2064
02:11:34,960 --> 02:11:38,640
Speaker 1: never dribbled the ball, and he's above average as well

2065
02:11:38,640 --> 02:11:42,320
Speaker 1: as everybody your stamps, ain't you? You broke that down, crazy,

2066
02:11:43,160 --> 02:11:46,320
Speaker 1: You broke that down, Craig. Goddamn, that makes some lost

2067
02:11:46,360 --> 02:11:50,560
Speaker 1: from the ridge. People are having me. Man, that's the

2068
02:11:50,640 --> 02:11:53,720
Speaker 1: thing you're not, you know, you know, that's the beautifulest

2069
02:11:53,760 --> 02:11:58,840
Speaker 1: thing about you, is how happy you are. It's the

2070
02:11:58,920 --> 02:12:02,000
Speaker 1: one thing me been said to each other. We said,

2071
02:12:03,160 --> 02:12:07,800
Speaker 1: and I've seen you at the Global spending and when

2072
02:12:07,840 --> 02:12:10,720
Speaker 1: we see each other, just like your PRIs, he looks

02:12:10,800 --> 02:12:14,480
Speaker 1: just so so boy, are we supposed to invite him

Speaker 1: like you look? It's just so so just so focused,

2075
02:12:19,560 --> 02:12:25,520
Speaker 1: like we didn't know we were disrupting your view. Now

2076
02:12:25,960 --> 02:12:29,680
Speaker 1: have you always been so? Yeah, I've never smoked a

2077

Speaker 1: drinking my hometil like that's want to be honest with you.

2078
02:12:32,680 --> 02:12:35,520

2091
02:13:06,520 --> 02:13:09,880
Speaker 1: I probably want to hear maybe something else, not so

2092
02:13:10,080 --> 02:13:13,360
Speaker 1: much on intellectual ship. I don't know understanding we actually

2093
02:13:13,480 --> 02:13:16,080
Speaker 1: none of those questions. That's not what we do. We

02:13:16,200 --> 02:13:18,200
Speaker 1: expect hip hop over here. I don't know if you

02:13:33,800 --> 02:13:37,480
Speaker 1: black people, you're part of the culture. Anybody was here.

2100
02:13:37,560 --> 02:13:41,920
Speaker 1: I'm just saying the culture right, what we accomplished? Man?

2101
02:13:42,880 --> 02:13:46,920
Speaker 1: What is feeding our families? Man? That's could you will

2102
02:13:47,000 --> 02:13:52,080
Speaker 1: not be happy? Yeah? We got some days manship's fucked up, bro,

2103
02:13:52,280 --> 02:13:53,920

2105
02:13:56,160 --> 02:13:57,480
Speaker 1: don't have any guns, but I'm just saying if I

2106
02:13:57,560 --> 02:14:01,120
Speaker 1: had a gun out and bust my ship. But still,

2107
02:14:02,080 --> 02:14:06,240
Speaker 1: what is there to be angry about? But I just

2108
02:14:06,440 --> 02:14:09,440
Speaker 1: can't be angry man, I'm I'm just I just can't

2109
02:14:09,440 --> 02:14:13,800
Speaker 1: be angry. I'm grateful, man, I'm so fucking blast. I

2110
02:14:13,880 --> 02:14:16,760
Speaker 1: prayed three times a day but I'm not Muslim, but

2111
02:14:16,840 --> 02:14:19,480
Speaker 1: I payed three times a day because God is so

2112
02:14:21,200 --> 02:14:23,360
Speaker 1: what He's done. And by the way, let me say

2113
02:14:23,360 --> 02:14:26,960
Speaker 1: this to you. Let's look at and without getting deep

2114
02:14:27,000 --> 02:14:31,280
Speaker 1: into it, but then let's look at the blacks and

2115
02:14:31,400 --> 02:14:35,720
Speaker 1: our culture. Who's not as fortunate who's getting killed by cops,

2116
02:14:36,440 --> 02:14:41,280
Speaker 1: who are being marginalized, killing for health insurance. Gotta fucking

2117
02:14:41,320 --> 02:14:43,560
Speaker 1: going on the hustle because when they could be doing

2118
02:14:43,640 --> 02:14:46,600
Speaker 1: something else. Right, think about all of that ship and

2119
02:14:46,800 --> 02:14:53,040
Speaker 1: we hit. We made it, by the way, we're not Einstein,

2120
02:14:54,360 --> 02:14:57,480
Speaker 1: We're not that fucking smart. We just made a couple

2121
02:14:57,480 --> 02:15:00,720
Speaker 1: of good moves and got a little bit of luck

2122
02:15:01,760 --> 02:15:04,400
Speaker 1: and we were able to keep our nose clean to

2123
02:15:04,440 --> 02:15:06,840
Speaker 1: a certain extent. And why while we hit, we know

2124
02:15:06,920 --> 02:15:10,920
Speaker 1: how hells be. Look at you right there, God problem

2125
02:15:13,120 --> 02:15:20,960
Speaker 1: the low well office, baby's right here. People up and look,

2126
02:15:21,520 --> 02:15:25,920
Speaker 1: by the way, this is a black man, a black

2127
02:15:26,000 --> 02:15:29,040
Speaker 1: man who got this beverage popping. It's a black man

2128
02:15:29,120 --> 02:15:32,680
Speaker 1: who got the headphones going on. It's like, come on, bro,

2129
02:15:32,840 --> 02:15:36,520
Speaker 1: this is us. But Hi, I don't know you got

2130
02:15:36,640 --> 02:15:41,080
Speaker 1: to answer anything from being bro bro. Yeah. My new

2131
02:15:41,160 --> 02:15:44,680
Speaker 1: theme is this for the black culture, we gotta go

2132
02:15:45,440 --> 02:15:49,680
Speaker 1: where we celebrated and not tolerated. That's being tolerated now

2133
02:15:51,960 --> 02:15:57,920
Speaker 1: that ship, that's the standard. That's and listen and that's

2134
02:15:57,960 --> 02:16:01,240
Speaker 1: not a right through thing. That's real ship. Like if

2135
02:16:01,560 --> 02:16:04,520
Speaker 1: if I'm gonna sit there and I'm gonna go to

2136
02:16:04,720 --> 02:16:08,440
Speaker 1: somebodywhere where somebody is gonna celebrate me and they're gonna

02:16:08,480 --> 02:16:12,120
Speaker 1: sit down and say, Nori, we love what you guys represent.

2138
02:16:13,600 --> 02:16:16,160
Speaker 1: And then these other people on this other side they

2139
02:16:16,280 --> 02:16:19,360
Speaker 1: don't want to and they're considered the people that's of

2140
02:16:19,640 --> 02:16:22,720
Speaker 1: our culture. I'm not doing that. I'm suking with the

2141
02:16:22,760 --> 02:16:26,720
Speaker 1: people who's funking with me, and that that that is

2142
02:16:26,760 --> 02:16:31,960
Speaker 1: not racial, that is not that, that is feelings. I don't.

2143
02:16:35,720 --> 02:16:40,800
Speaker 1: Let's make your vibes say I didn't given what what

02:20:48,440 --> 02:20:50,360
Speaker 1: been to I was in the whack two years ago

2201
02:20:50,959 --> 02:20:53,400
Speaker 1: on the borderline with Isis. I was in North Korea,

2202
02:20:54,360 --> 02:20:59,200
Speaker 1: being a part of Africa where you got a bunch

2203
02:20:59,240 --> 02:21:03,280
Speaker 1: of people. Their dreams is to one day be able

2204
02:21:03,360 --> 02:21:07,640
Speaker 1: to have a decent meal. That's what they dream about.

2205
02:21:08,000 --> 02:21:12,480
Speaker 1: They don't dream about the watch whips. They don't dream

2206
02:21:12,480 --> 02:21:14,840
Speaker 1: about that. They dream man if I can have one

2207
02:21:15,040 --> 02:21:20,840
Speaker 1: decent meal. And when you experience that, bro, man, you

2208
02:21:20,920 --> 02:21:25,520
Speaker 1: gotta have some form of humility and say, I'm complaining

2209
02:21:25,560 --> 02:21:33,200
Speaker 1: about WiFi is too slow. I'm complaining because they didn't

2210
02:21:33,240 --> 02:21:35,959
Speaker 1: have a pink go yard bag and go yard. I'm

2211
02:21:36,560 --> 02:21:38,240
Speaker 1: literally right in to them, like, yo, how can you

2212
02:21:38,360 --> 02:21:46,520
Speaker 1: don't make pink like you knows? Yo? Like what are

2213
02:21:46,600 --> 02:21:51,360
Speaker 1: I'm complaining about? Yo? One last thing, I met this

2214
02:21:51,480 --> 02:21:56,000
Speaker 1: guy in Somalia, so Pea this Somalia so he was

2215
02:21:56,440 --> 02:22:00,440
Speaker 1: He was a chef for the pipes he try to

2216
02:22:00,680 --> 02:22:04,240
Speaker 1: escape to go Let's be clear, the chef for the

2217
02:22:04,360 --> 02:22:07,880
Speaker 1: pirates and Somalia. He wasna that movie you're just talking

2218
02:22:07,920 --> 02:22:12,640
Speaker 1: about it. What's the movie name? No, he wasn't that

2219
02:22:12,760 --> 02:22:15,880
Speaker 1: chef for the cat, but he just it wasn't. It

2220
02:22:16,040 --> 02:22:19,000
Speaker 1: was like a chef. Yeah, both because after because they

2221
02:22:19,040 --> 02:22:21,400
Speaker 1: had to cook food for the people right ahead. So

2222
02:22:21,520 --> 02:22:24,560
Speaker 1: pe this crazy story. I gotta listen to this. So

2223
02:22:25,400 --> 02:22:27,720
Speaker 1: he decides he's going to escape because he has his

2224
02:22:27,840 --> 02:22:32,160
Speaker 1: family back in Samalia. They capture him. The way they

2225
02:22:32,240 --> 02:22:36,520
Speaker 1: punished him. They cut both of his feet off and

2226
02:22:36,680 --> 02:22:41,400
Speaker 1: sold them backwards. So when the walk was gonna be

2227
02:22:41,440 --> 02:22:44,000
Speaker 1: funny at some point you no, no, like no, I

2228
02:22:44,040 --> 02:22:48,720
Speaker 1: didn't want to do it. I didn't. They sold his

2229
02:22:48,840 --> 02:22:50,640
Speaker 1: feet back so they took the wife and put it

2230
02:22:50,680 --> 02:22:52,200
Speaker 1: on the left and left on the right. So when

2231
02:22:52,240 --> 02:22:55,560
Speaker 1: he walks, he gotta walk like this because it sets
