So I never kept count I 0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:48.920 figured i'd be done signed for five.

I would say a lot 0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:07.240 more saturated. Okay, you know, it's just a lot more output. 0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:09.519 I remember knowing, like going to the record store and 0:02:09.639 --> 0:02:11.919 knowing what depth Jam had, you know what I'm saying, 0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:14.120 what Tommy Boy had. And now it's kind of like 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:16.800 everybody's varying for attention. So I kind of looked at 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:20.320 it like times square. It's a million billboards, so you 0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:23.239 got to focus attention. So now just you got to 0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:25.239 make it because you love it, try your best to 0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:28.799 promote it and hope you know somebody listens. You ever 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:34.080 thought you would do it as long? Fuck? No? Sometimes, 0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:35.799 like why do you, but you know what it was. 0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:37.760 I thought, like I said, like, I thought I'd be 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.880 done by four life keep lifing, so you just end 0:02:41.000 --> 0:02:44.480 up having shit to talk about. Now, Okay, so now. 0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:50.000 The Golden State Warriors, Yes, it actually did sue you guys, 0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:54.280 yeah for what it really did because yeah, at that time, 0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:56.400 you guys were selling an imprint. 0:02:57.120 --> 0:03:01.520 Well we named ourselves and I guess, uh, you got 0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:08.120 on the radar. So exhibit you know, the Restless album 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:10.720 went platinum and then all of a sudden they cared 0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:13.799 like you are not the Golden State Warriors. It's like 0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:17.840 what we spelled it differently, is like we didn't don't care. 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:18.520 They don't care. 0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:25.519 McDonald Yeah, we couldn't be McDonald's trying. Wow, holy ship resting, 0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:29.720 piece of fear this somewhere. No, we did. We did 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:36.720 like five records and I'm also be Robbie, honest my 0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:38.640 record it wasn't Capital at the time. I think it 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:42.520 was transitioning Priority record. They just got a little greedy man. 0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:44.560 They fucked that deal off. So I'm always the one 0:03:44.600 --> 0:03:47.360 that like, because everybody had different deals. Exhibbit was that 0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:51.640 loud I was at Priority, Sofia was at Quincy Jones label. 0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:53.200 I forgot the name of Quest. 0:03:53.240 --> 0:03:56.760 He was signed the Quest and when X popped, the 0:03:56.880 --> 0:03:59.720 bean counter start coming out. That's not a racist thing, 0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:04.600 I'm talking about you. But now they started counting the money, 0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:07.600 the counting of the money. People, the attorneys in the 0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:10.120 suits started asking for a whole bunch of shit, and 0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:12.119 they like held up. But we had a million dollar 0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:14.840 deal on the table, and they like dragged it out 0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:16.640 for like a year, which was really when I started 0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:18.800 flipping out, where I was just like like maybe this 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:22.120 ain't then making mistakes where it kind of seemed like 0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:25.080 they was sabotaging and drave beats and all that. Well, 0:04:25.160 --> 0:04:30.040 I mean, think about it. We had his relationships, my relationships, 0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:33.080 and Safir, So you know, theoretically we would have had 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:36.360 e forty and two short with all the base shit right, 0:04:37.400 --> 0:04:40.400 and then we would have had my relationships, which I 0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:42.760 got Riza and blah blah blah blah blah and Premiere, 0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:44.760 and so we were gonna kind of do one of 0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:48.120 those like voltes trying it up and make this crazy 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:49.239 different kind of record. 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:52.960 You don't think you could put that record out today, 0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:54.480 Like I would have to say that all these people 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:55.279 are doing these. 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:57.880 Records with artists that aren't around anymore and stuff like that. 0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:03.080 Sofia is gone. So like I'm but have had all 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:05.680 the have got the you know, you know, have got 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:07.640 all them files he had, he had the rials. 0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:10.720 We only had what Sofia had. 0:05:10.800 --> 0:05:13.800 If somebody supposedly had a hope, like a whole Sefia 0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:17.120 album that never came out, and we were we had 0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:20.120 disgusted me and X and uh and his brother Sonny 0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:23.520 chop Black, but we couldn't get because I'm not gonna 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:26.520 ai my brother's votes, you know what I'm saying. So 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:29.640 if we can't get severiir vocals, we can't do it. 0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:32.720 I mean, you know, I would love to. I mean, 0:05:32.839 --> 0:05:34.960 I mean we can repect it. I kind of was 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:37.799 suggesting that, like why don't we just take old vocals 0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:41.280 and hooks and build it? But I guess, you know, 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:45.000 maybe we will if the technology gets good enough for 0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:48.920 that producer dude that's out there talking to you, whoever 0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:52.120 you are, get us, because think about it, back then, 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:54.880 everybody was doing three verses, so ship you give us 0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:58.040 one song and we got three songs, so yeah, give 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:02.600 us three writers and let us was that recorded digitally 0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:04.440 or back then. 0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:05.560 We were do I think we were a little bit 0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:05.880 of both. 0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:08.640 Okay, I think pro tools existed when we were yeah, 0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:11.280 because we're talking about like two thousand and one, Okay, 0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:14.000 probably two thousand and two, so it was just that transition. 0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:16.360 We still had the two inch reells, but I think 0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:18.400 we were starting to add it in pro tools. 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:19.680 Yeah. 0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:22.840 Yeah, I think we still because we was over there 0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:24.400 with Drake, so you know, he had the best of 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:24.960 both for us. 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:28.760 What's your favorite album you made or is it like 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:31.400 your kids? You can't pick your favorite kids. 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:34.520 Always, you know what I don't like? I make them 0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:37.800 and then I like, I don't listen to them, and 0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:41.720 then I forget them. What kind of that sounds like 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:48.120 a dream Champs episode? I mean way later because I 0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:51.400 don't want to get uh, you know, like super wrapped 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:52.440 up in one thing. 0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:54.360 I'm always trying to like grow. 0:06:56.240 --> 0:07:01.240 Really, Leparty's Face for me is solo nights to to 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:01.960 a certain degree. 0:07:02.320 --> 0:07:05.160 It's like I told you so is what it is. 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:06.200 But I don't have a favorite. 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:08.799 Sometimes I listen to shit, like the Homie was playing 0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:12.080 one of my projects and I was just like, oh shit, 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:14.360 because now if I ain't listening in a couple of 0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:17.440 years or ten years. I'm not that person. I'm just 0:07:17.560 --> 0:07:20.600 kind of listening to some dude saying some shit that 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:22.600 I can relate to. So I kind of enjoy that 0:07:22.640 --> 0:07:25.320 part of it. So I like every record separately for 0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:27.000 different reasons when I listen to them. 0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:30.240 Do you think putting out music but with the end 0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:32.880 ofnet and like, you know, being able to download, you 0:07:32.960 --> 0:07:36.320 think that they say harder for the artists or is 0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:37.720 it easier because it's more. 0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:43.239 Access it's all tools, you know, I think. 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:53.120 It invites people to diminish the work that it takes 0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:55.960 to make one song, you know what I'm saying, because 0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:58.440 they can get it so easily, or you know, they 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:00.480 can stream it for free here, or you know what 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:03.160 I'm saying. Ten ninety ninety you got the library of everything. 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:07.400 But then on the other side, I would rather hear 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:09.360 it than not hear it. So I just look at 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:13.240 the tool for what it is, appreciate it and try 0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:15.480 to you know, nowadays, you know we already know you 0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:17.560 got to monetize it. In other ways, you may not 0:08:17.680 --> 0:08:20.600 be able to monetize it on the creation of the music. 0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:24.080 Maybe you could sell the merch. Maybe you can platform it, 0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:26.360 which we always do. You got to platform this shit 0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:29.600 and the other shit. Most people don't get rich being 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:33.000 a rapper, you know what I'm saying. You know what's funny. 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:36.599 I remember having to drop a record and like for 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:38.439 me to get that record to London, I had to 0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:40.760 physically go to London, right, like you know what I mean, 0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:42.959 to go to see how Tim west Wood to see it, 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:46.080 and like I'll never gonna like pict it. This gaming 0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:47.560 to be like that, like where you could just press 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:48.600 one button button. 0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:52.319 And all over right, even recording, I mean, you know, 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:56.040 just I never thought I could do a song with somebody, 0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:58.200 you know what I'm saying, New York and without being 0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:01.120 in New York. Yeah, because they had to ship the 0:09:01.200 --> 0:09:04.400 ricks all that ship the two inch. 0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:10.360 Will And what about now seeing your kids all right, 0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:12.560 they're doing man, I'm. 0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:15.959 You know, like I always just say, I'm happy, you 0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:18.839 know that they found something they love and that that 0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:21.680 thing they love is giving them the opportunity of fair shot. 0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:25.360 So probably about it. What would it happened if they 0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:30.080 were whack drink? 0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:31.920 Can we get them a drink? 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:37.719 They would have just been whacked because you you you 0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:40.480 are don't for being one of the best limits. I 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:41.360 imagine that, like. 0:09:43.840 --> 0:09:46.040 Because I heard it at first, you said you told 0:09:46.080 --> 0:09:50.079 them nowhere first to tell them that, And one thing, 0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:52.439 like I want them to tell their own story, so 0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:55.360 like you know for sure that's their narrative. They've really 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:57.920 created a so so I'm going to let them speak 0:09:57.960 --> 0:10:00.200 on it. But in general, if they were whack, right, 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:04.880 they would just be whack. There's other Look, Jordan's sons 0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:13.880 are not doing Jordan's thinking. So that's you know, my 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:17.880 my I don't know. I'm trying to give a good example. 0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:22.400 What yeah, whatever, my father can swim good. 0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:24.200 That's a lot. But I'm just making up ship. 0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:26.080 But the point is if I could not be able 0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:28.240 to I might not able to swim because everything ain't 0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:29.760 biological and everything. 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:31.520 You know, some ship.

You were you were you, you were being 0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:29.160 a good. 0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:31.559 No. 0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:36.199 Bumpy face was the GM and it was what the 0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:40.959 bottle was, bop like, so we would we did that. 0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:45.760 But we're talking about kids ship Sloop alludes to it 0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:50.599 Jenny juice, so that's when you're like your kids. And 0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:54.839 we would drink that and then you hang hungover, and 0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:56.160 then we would drink uh. 0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:00.520 Fucking it was. 0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:03.679 It was cheap ass, like night train and you put 0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:07.040 kool aid in. So we did that, and basically then 0:12:07.080 --> 0:12:08.959 it was Hennessy once we finally got some money. I 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:12.120 remember whining, oh ga, need some Hennessy. You drink Cisco. 0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:14.680 Of course I drank at all. I thought it was amazing. 0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:15.199 I loved it. 0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:17.080 It was amazing for U when we were a kid, but. 0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:22.640 Not oh yeah, never now liquid crack yeah. And then 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:26.160 and then uh, we went to the Hennessy phase. Hennessy. 0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:29.720 I call it jail juice. So I looked up and thought, 0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:32.319 every time look at me, juice, you think everybody was 0:12:32.800 --> 0:12:36.839 looking at you while you're looking at me. I just 0:12:36.920 --> 0:12:39.480 knew I ended up in jail every time. I know, 0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:41.760 every time I ended up in jail there was some 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:44.120 Hennessy involved. So that I was like, I can't do 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:48.679 that no more. Went through my vodka phase and then 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:52.280 uh yeah, I was somewhere. I was at a bar 0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:54.360 with like some of it was a whole bunch of 0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:58.360 fucking uh Wall Street dudes, and the Wall Street dude 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:00.640 was like, yeah, that's the money drinks, and I was like, oh, really, 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:06.080 fuck it. Okay, yeah, drink ivery smoke Jamaican. I'm gonna. 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:09.640 We'll go through a couple of these albums and tell 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:11.240 me what you what you think of when you hear it? 0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:20.280 Okay, sol on Ice truer now than it was then? Really? Absolutely? Wow. 0:13:20.360 --> 0:13:21.800 You think tom sais not got better? 0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:22.640 It's worse. 0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:23.800 Absolutely, it is worse. 0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:26.680 It is it worse. 0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:31.720 Sol on Ice is trure now. 0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:34.920 I think the things I'm dealing with, you know what 0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:38.160 I'm saying that I'm talking about social political you know, 0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:42.840 overt racism, a country that won't own up to its lies, 0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:48.040 erasing history, literally taking people out of books and making 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:50.240 it illegal, burning books and all that. 0:13:50.400 --> 0:13:56.280 Yeah, I always said that that like a ninety maybe 0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:58.120 ninety one to like ninety. 0:13:57.880 --> 0:14:03.360 Five hip hop lyricism was telling us everything that foreshadowed 0:14:03.400 --> 0:14:04.320 everything that happened today. 0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:06.679 Well, I think you know the saying, I mean, smarter 0:14:06.760 --> 0:14:10.599 people than than I have said, Like, you know, what 0:14:10.800 --> 0:14:13.120 is it If you don't learn from history, you're doing 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:16.120 the repeat it. If you keep fucking the same girl 0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:22.640 that keeps giving you crabs, you're gonna get crabb the dragon, right, 0:14:22.840 --> 0:14:26.120 I mean, you know, logic prevails. So, yeah, we haven't 0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:28.560 learned from our past mistakes. And then we get on 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:34.520 some we like to fucking escape. We like to escapism music, 0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:37.040 We like to do escapism ship. So we are we're 0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:39.760 doing to repeat it. And then again, America likes to 0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:44.280 fucking say that never happened. You know what I'm saying, 0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:46.760 never happened. We didn't do anything to you guys. You 0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:48.000 guys are just tripping. 0:14:49.400 --> 0:15:00.960 Right, Okay, blasphemy, blasphemy, ooh, hypocrisy. 0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:03.600 The only reason why is because the album was actually 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:07.080 called I Really let that album. My home boy Curtis 0:15:07.200 --> 0:15:14.320 Daniel would say, uh, his favorite produced abum, so you know, 0:15:14.440 --> 0:15:18.360 shouts out to Apollo Brown. But the name of the 0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:21.040 album was really called I came up with that title 0:15:21.720 --> 0:15:24.240 when I was in prison, but that wasn't the title. 0:15:24.320 --> 0:15:27.600 The title was called how to Kill God. That was 0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:30.360 the name of the album. That album was called, right, 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:35.520 real controversial, Yes it is because guess what, it's not 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:38.400 a how to manual, nigga. I'm just staying like so 0:15:38.880 --> 0:15:42.880 the metaphor was right, yeah, Now that the metaphor was 0:15:43.280 --> 0:15:45.280 how do you kill God? Well, God is love, right, 0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:48.480 God created everything. So if you go kick a fucking cat, 0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:51.640 you killing God. You know you're hurting God. You know 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:53.600 something that God created one of God's creations. So how 0:15:53.640 --> 0:15:56.040 to kill God is being a dick, being fucked up, 0:15:56.160 --> 0:15:58.640 being a sexist, being a racist, being a bitch ass nigga. 0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:00.920 All that ship is how to kill God. So when 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:02.880 I did it, ironic parties, I didn't say how to 0:16:02.960 --> 0:16:05.560 kill Allah or how to kill Buddha all the shit 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:10.280 because America. And that's why I said this hypocrisy is 0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:12.600 if I would have said how to kill Allah, how 0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:16.120 to kill Buddha how to kill yahweh Apple and iTunes 0:16:16.160 --> 0:16:19.040 would have said cool. Spotify would have said cool because 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:23.560 they identify that with European God. That's why they said no, 0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:25.880 it's like absolutely not. So then we called it blasphemy 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:28.600 because they're being blasphemous. So that's what I think of. 0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:30.560 Okay, eat or. 0:16:30.600 --> 0:16:34.080 Die, That's what I'm on the run. So that's when 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:38.280 I realized this company is against me and I'm gonna 0:16:38.280 --> 0:16:40.320 have to sink or swim. So yeah, I just think 0:16:40.360 --> 0:16:43.360 of like fucking, my back was against the wall. I 0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:47.320 was upset, I was mad, and fuck it, I'm gonna 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:48.560 have to eat or I'm gonna die. 0:16:48.640 --> 0:16:50.040 I got to figure this shit out, and we got 0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:51.720 to go back because I know you've talked about it 0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:52.160 in length. 0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:54.680 Just for the sake of the show, I want you 0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:56.320 to go back later on and okay. 0:16:56.120 --> 0:17:04.399 Absolutely, Okay sold on Ice two. Hmm. 0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:08.800 I feel like it was slept I mean, well I 0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:12.080 always get slept on. I think it was just a 0:17:12.320 --> 0:17:14.440 great follow up, and I wasn't trying to make a 0:17:14.520 --> 0:17:17.000 so on nice too, I'm trying to throw off. I 0:17:17.160 --> 0:17:19.479 was trying to make something else, which is normally how 0:17:19.520 --> 0:17:22.960 these records happen, and then I just felt like five 0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:25.879 records in, I was like, I'm making something that is 0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:28.840 an extension of the first one. So I feel like 0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:34.200 I did that and what it was that like whatever 0:17:34.280 --> 0:17:40.280 our twenty twenty three solo nice updated production wise or whatever? Yeah, 0:17:40.720 --> 0:17:48.480 okay Adidas All day I dream about spitting my only 0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:51.720 double album, shouts out to Rathmatic. 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:55.240 And what do I think about it? 0:17:55.359 --> 0:17:57.800 Yeah? I feel like it was my only double album, 0:17:57.920 --> 0:18:01.359 which I never felt like. I don't be having a 0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:04.760 bandwidth for that shit. So I don't know who listened 0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:06.679 to it, because there's a lot of listening. 0:18:08.119 --> 0:18:10.880 How did Adta This Night not get at you? If 0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:12.280 the Golden State Warriors got you? 0:18:12.440 --> 0:18:16.680 Well, they always say if somebody contacts you, did you 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:17.560 already did your job? 0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:20.119 That means I didn't do my job. Is like I 0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:21.000 fucked this guy. 0:18:22.840 --> 0:18:26.760 Before Killer Mike's Adidas. I think, so yeah, I believe 0:18:26.840 --> 0:18:31.120 so yeah. If they don't hit you here, I'll give 0:18:31.119 --> 0:18:33.359 you a prime example and I get to flex a 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:33.719 little bit. 0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:34.520 That's a good flex. 0:18:35.080 --> 0:18:41.040 So when I'm working on this album, Ra Assassination, I'm 0:18:41.119 --> 0:18:43.400 with Drey and I play my intro the whole intro 0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:46.760 is kind of basically what we're in. Like there's this 0:18:46.920 --> 0:18:50.000 dude that's kind of like a fascist dictator and there's 0:18:50.040 --> 0:18:52.119 no dogs or niggers allowed and not of that, and 0:18:52.240 --> 0:18:55.400 we're operation. We got to get rid of this fascist 0:18:55.920 --> 0:19:00.280 ruler of America, right right, And but before that's arts 0:19:00.280 --> 0:19:03.000 and uses, uh, because you remember the VHS tapes and 0:19:03.000 --> 0:19:06.359 it would be like now our future presentation.

Then we couldn't keep 0:36:47.880 --> 0:36:50.239 it together, or they couldn't keep it together. But as 0:36:50.280 --> 0:36:54.160 a poor execution of a fucking amazing opportunity. 0:36:53.640 --> 0:36:55.319 I could have paid a lot of people. 0:36:55.360 --> 0:36:57.440 So I always I look at it like, damn Fifth 0:36:57.920 --> 0:37:00.080 Phil got a documentary and the TV show out of it. 0:37:00.160 --> 0:37:06.759 But that shit was supposed to be incredible. How did 0:37:06.800 --> 0:37:09.879 you avoid gang banging from where you're from? 0:37:11.600 --> 0:37:11.719 Uh? 0:37:12.320 --> 0:37:13.400 I don't think you avoid it. 0:37:14.120 --> 0:37:17.120 I just anybody that tells you you have to step 0:37:17.160 --> 0:37:19.960 into a gang is a fucking liar, you know what 0:37:20.000 --> 0:37:23.400 I mean?

I mean, And as far as just growing 0:37:48.200 --> 0:37:50.160 up in the neighborhood. You don't have to do shit. 0:37:50.400 --> 0:37:52.359 It's a basketball nigga. Think about it. On the block, 0:37:52.520 --> 0:37:59.200 like anywhere Brooklyn, fucking Florida, Miami, Uh, you know, anywhere 0:37:59.400 --> 0:38:02.799 that you're at. It's a comedy dude. Somebody that's funny. 0:38:02.880 --> 0:38:06.480 On your block. It's somebody who played basketball. It's a 0:38:06.560 --> 0:38:08.480 real straight lace dude. That might be the police. He 0:38:08.560 --> 0:38:10.520 might be a crooked cop, but it's a straight lace dude. 0:38:10.960 --> 0:38:14.839 It's a it's the one all the girls like, right, 0:38:14.880 --> 0:38:16.200 you know what I'm saying. It's like the pretty boy 0:38:16.280 --> 0:38:18.279 nigga that all the girls like. It's usually a gay 0:38:18.360 --> 0:38:22.080 nigga too. It's just all these different people. So that's 0:38:22.320 --> 0:38:24.759 that's a regular street in LA. They made. What they 0:38:24.840 --> 0:38:28.600 did was they created this narrative that in La you 0:38:28.800 --> 0:38:30.800 had to do it, and that's what you're do it. 0:38:31.000 --> 0:38:33.920 Yeah, it sells good, it selles and. 0:38:33.960 --> 0:38:36.080 It's great boys in the hood, but that's actors and 0:38:36.120 --> 0:38:37.719 some of them niggas ain't even from La. A lot 0:38:37.760 --> 0:38:39.880 of them it's from New York. And so that's this 0:38:40.080 --> 0:38:48.840 narrative that, uh, you're forced the times I would assume 0:38:48.880 --> 0:38:51.120 you'd be forced to say, and you're not even forced 0:38:51.800 --> 0:38:55.719 is because your pops and not that he forced you. 0:38:55.840 --> 0:38:58.120 It's just you associate or your older brother. 0:38:58.200 --> 0:38:59.759 So I know a lot of people who've stepped in 0:39:00.320 --> 0:39:02.160 because they broke it, you know what I'm saying, or 0:39:02.200 --> 0:39:05.040 their father was. So it's like, I'm this is calm 0:39:05.120 --> 0:39:07.880 on second nature. But nobody when you're like teena, you 0:39:08.120 --> 0:39:10.880 gotta do it. Nobody never says that, like lies to 0:39:10.920 --> 0:39:16.160 you being outside of it. That is the fun it is, 0:39:16.520 --> 0:39:18.440 I would assume until it. 0:39:19.040 --> 0:39:22.239 Yeah, like when I used to see like like n 0:39:22.360 --> 0:39:25.000 w A and like they rocking ice black oh ship, 0:39:25.440 --> 0:39:25.880 think about it. 0:39:25.960 --> 0:39:26.960 It's so different to us. 0:39:27.120 --> 0:39:31.600 Gangster's in black. There is no you know, they were there. 0:39:31.640 --> 0:39:34.520 They're a construct their concept and I'm not disrespecting them. 0:39:34.520 --> 0:39:38.399 I'm just saying there are gangs. They are you wear 0:39:38.440 --> 0:39:40.719 the wall of the crypt right. Yeah he was, you 0:39:40.760 --> 0:39:42.480 know what I'm saying, and something he didn't rep it though, 0:39:42.560 --> 0:39:43.680 like that, like I mean on. 0:39:44.239 --> 0:39:45.799 The right right. 0:39:46.239 --> 0:39:49.040 More people started stepping in just saying like cuz and blood, 0:39:49.120 --> 0:39:51.480 like the young niggas is really outside. And then we 0:39:51.600 --> 0:39:54.560 got a third factor. We got Southsiders. We got Mexicans, 0:39:54.880 --> 0:39:57.840 right and that's a whole different factor. So it's like 0:39:58.040 --> 0:40:00.360 this whole gang ship. Motherfucker's got a fun up, Like 0:40:00.400 --> 0:40:03.040 it's just bloods and cribs. You got these Southsiders and 0:40:03.160 --> 0:40:05.239 they don't want you around there, and they are they 0:40:05.320 --> 0:40:07.080 hopping out with k's on niggas. 0:40:07.360 --> 0:40:10.880 You don't think the most overt version of like putting 0:40:10.920 --> 0:40:12.640 it out there was Banging on Wax. 0:40:12.680 --> 0:40:15.719 I feel like that's the first one that was. But 0:40:16.080 --> 0:40:20.359 here's the rubb on that. If I'm correct, there's only 0:40:20.440 --> 0:40:24.560 two people alive from Banging on Wax. Wow. Yeah, it 0:40:24.640 --> 0:40:29.480 was overt, and guess what, now you're the target. Nobody 0:40:29.560 --> 0:40:32.320 survived that except for two people that I know of. 0:40:32.920 --> 0:40:35.040 I don't even say their names, but it's only two 0:40:35.040 --> 0:40:37.880 people alive, and one of them had a suitonym when 0:40:37.920 --> 0:40:39.600 he was on Banging on Wax. He didn't gobody his 0:40:39.760 --> 0:40:40.520 real name. 0:40:40.480 --> 0:40:43.080 Because who would have been doing it before that? Maybe 0:40:43.680 --> 0:40:45.319 come to those wanted maybe well, I mean. 0:40:46.160 --> 0:40:48.640 There were people making so some of these records that 0:40:49.520 --> 0:40:50.160 came out. 0:40:52.600 --> 0:40:55.839 That would eventually become legendary rap albums started off as 0:40:55.920 --> 0:40:58.160 like hood demos that they would sell it to swap meets. 0:40:58.200 --> 0:41:04.000 So I recall one in particular where the artist is 0:41:04.080 --> 0:41:06.440 gang banging. He talked about where he's from. He talked 0:41:06.440 --> 0:41:09.319 about killing the enemies, the ops, all that. But when 0:41:09.480 --> 0:41:11.399 he sanitized it by the time he got a major 0:41:11.520 --> 0:41:15.040 record deal but not that La in La Bloods and 0:41:15.160 --> 0:41:17.640 Crypts loved it. In the South Siders, the Mexicans loved 0:41:17.640 --> 0:41:19.239 it too, but by the time he came out the 0:41:19.280 --> 0:41:22.560 mainstream he was he made it a lot more digestible 0:41:22.760 --> 0:41:25.680 by not putting out like I'm from this hood and 0:41:25.880 --> 0:41:32.239 I killed those particular people. Yeah, it's uh, it's the 0:41:32.360 --> 0:41:34.640 lifestyle is trust me. 0:41:34.719 --> 0:41:36.000 I got friends. 0:41:37.280 --> 0:41:41.879 That was game members before we met, you know, prisoners 0:41:42.040 --> 0:41:46.400 and some lifers after totally good people. I'm not knocking that. 0:41:46.560 --> 0:41:49.799 It's just it's not really uh for me. I never 0:41:49.840 --> 0:41:52.280 wanted to. I didn't step in. So what I remember 0:41:52.400 --> 0:41:56.800 telling in the studio one time, a dude you know 0:41:57.000 --> 0:41:59.000 early on, said like you may have to put on 0:41:59.160 --> 0:42:01.239 the suit, like to sell the records. You know what 0:42:01.280 --> 0:42:03.000 I'm saying, like put on the Khaki shuite and get 0:42:03.040 --> 0:42:05.640 the krip walking. I remember I said this was sometime 0:42:05.680 --> 0:42:09.040 around this time, around like ninety. 0:42:08.800 --> 0:42:09.959 Seven ninety eight issues. 0:42:10.080 --> 0:42:11.640 But I remember I just said, bro, I'm from you 0:42:11.680 --> 0:42:13.919 know what I'm saying, Like, I forgot how to krip walk, 0:42:14.600 --> 0:42:17.600 because if you if you not a cryp, then don't 0:42:17.680 --> 0:42:19.960 krip walk. So when you grow up in a neighborhood 0:42:19.960 --> 0:42:23.480 where people crip walk, you krip walk. And as sure 0:42:23.520 --> 0:42:25.560 as I'm rest assured that if you grew up in 0:42:25.600 --> 0:42:28.160 the blood neighborhood, you be walking. You know what I'm saying. 0:42:28.440 --> 0:42:31.400 But if you don't become a blood, stop be walking 0:42:31.600 --> 0:42:34.399 because you only creating a problem for yourself. And now 0:42:34.560 --> 0:42:36.759 you may not had the homies and the burner in 0:42:36.800 --> 0:42:38.680 the backup, so you don't do it. So I had 0:42:38.719 --> 0:42:42.439 forgotten how to crip walk because I decided I didn't. 0:42:43.280 --> 0:42:45.319 I said the dumbest thing when they talked. When they 0:42:45.400 --> 0:42:48.640 asked me to step into the hood, they said, baby John, 0:42:48.640 --> 0:42:50.600 because I was a RAS cast. They said, baby John, 0:42:50.640 --> 0:42:54.759 you're gonna see from the hood. And then I said, yeah, 0:42:54.880 --> 0:42:57.840 how much y'all paying an hour? And then the niggas 0:42:57.920 --> 0:43:00.799 laughed at me and they said, fuck it out. It's 0:43:00.800 --> 0:43:04.920 just my baby Joe. And that was a continue by 0:43:05.600 --> 0:43:07.879 you know, my life in the hood has had. 0:43:07.800 --> 0:43:08.319 A great time. 0:43:08.440 --> 0:43:11.200 So yeah, they never forced they never force you man, 0:43:11.600 --> 0:43:13.080 I've never seen nobody force. 0:43:13.640 --> 0:43:15.440 Most people jump in because they broke. 0:43:15.880 --> 0:43:18.520 So you want to sell dope, okay, So you need 0:43:18.840 --> 0:43:20.759 somebody to front you some dope, and you need some 0:43:20.840 --> 0:43:23.759 protection while you and where you're gonna sell a dope at. 0:43:23.960 --> 0:43:26.880 You can't go down the block to somebody else neighborhood 0:43:26.960 --> 0:43:30.400 selling dope. So you need a location to get on 0:43:30.480 --> 0:43:32.800 your feet, help your mama, whatever your situation is. The 0:43:32.920 --> 0:43:35.719 other one is you already grandfathered in.

So that can just get you joy. 0:45:21.560 --> 0:45:25.520 See, Like my friend Tito, he's not he's he wears 0:45:25.560 --> 0:45:27.080 whatever hat though, but uh. 0:45:27.960 --> 0:45:32.879 Not not in any hood like anywhere he knows, he knows. Yeah, 0:45:33.280 --> 0:45:35.719 what's funny is like even a specifically like Compton, people 0:45:35.800 --> 0:45:39.640 don't wear l A hats right Long Beach like everybody, 0:45:39.840 --> 0:45:42.360 Like just the best way to explain that LA to 0:45:42.480 --> 0:45:46.120 me is like New York has boroughs within your borroughs 0:45:46.640 --> 0:45:50.279 you got you know, left Frack City, you know, you 0:45:50.360 --> 0:45:54.120 got all these different places. We got like fifty two boroughs. 0:45:55.080 --> 0:45:57.960 L A is like New York for fifty two boroughs, 0:45:58.360 --> 0:46:01.399 like Guardena's Guardena. You know what I'm saying. Long Beach 0:46:01.560 --> 0:46:04.400 is a long beach. You know what I'm saying, constant 0:46:05.400 --> 0:46:09.640 there's a Compton and a Bompting like it coexists. So 0:46:10.560 --> 0:46:13.759 we're we got the west side, you know what I'm saying, 0:46:13.760 --> 0:46:15.480 Then you got the east side, which is watched, and 0:46:15.520 --> 0:46:18.640 then you got even further in and watches the whole city, 0:46:18.719 --> 0:46:20.680 right city. Yeah, so. 0:46:22.440 --> 0:46:27.000 It's not like our counties, right or it is count 0:46:27.600 --> 0:46:28.239 it's county. 0:46:28.320 --> 0:46:30.080 Yeah, it's a pretty big county. It's not even the 0:46:30.080 --> 0:46:34.239 biggest one California's biggest fuck. But yeah, our ship is 0:46:34.520 --> 0:46:38.359 even Hollywood in the Valley is still La County, right, Yeah, 0:46:38.800 --> 0:46:42.279 but but I was just saying, like it may be 0:46:42.400 --> 0:46:44.960 the easiest way. So some people when people think like 0:46:45.840 --> 0:46:49.000 Compton Long Beach, like it's it's not this unified place. 0:46:49.200 --> 0:46:52.600 It's a whole bunch of different they don't wear the 0:46:52.640 --> 0:46:57.200 same clothes, and somebody's being not helpful to them, and 0:46:57.360 --> 0:47:00.480 try up. I know, I do got a the doorbell. 0:47:01.400 --> 0:47:07.440 Hell yeah yeah we uh yet like literally tribal, so 0:47:08.600 --> 0:47:13.600 your hat could be a problem. You're obviously your colors 0:47:14.200 --> 0:47:18.040 and then your color go to East bro It's places. 0:47:18.600 --> 0:47:24.160 I remember one time we was, uh, this is past, 0:47:24.320 --> 0:47:27.920 this is past. Your geography is worse than mine. But 0:47:28.000 --> 0:47:31.400 that San Pedro, so San Piedro, there's like if you 0:47:31.520 --> 0:47:37.840 went south of see Arson, so Compton, Carson, Wilmington in 0:47:37.960 --> 0:47:40.239 this place called San Pedro's right by the water, like 0:47:40.800 --> 0:47:44.800 you know what I'm saying, and uh, it's pretty predominantly Mexican, 0:47:45.080 --> 0:47:50.840 predominantly Southsiders. I remember we went to a party and 0:47:51.000 --> 0:47:54.719 it was like, you know, some Mexican girls, like a 0:47:54.800 --> 0:47:59.200 couple of you know, Mexican homeboys, uh me and then 0:47:59.480 --> 0:48:01.800 our homeboy J two eleven here a white boy. I 0:48:01.840 --> 0:48:05.359 remember when in Mexico, he's like, we should go. He's 0:48:05.400 --> 0:48:09.640 like why, He's like, because they were discussing who to 0:48:09.760 --> 0:48:15.360 kill you or the weddow whoa.

I mean, I think we've gotten a lot better. 0:48:22.200 --> 0:48:25.920 But yeah, so there's a politics, there's a racial issue. 0:48:26.560 --> 0:48:29.160 Think about it. New York is built up, so y'all 0:48:29.160 --> 0:48:31.680 got the same amount of people, but you guys are 0:48:32.640 --> 0:48:35.719 so you're almost forced to deal with people saying we 0:48:35.920 --> 0:48:37.680 got enough space to be an asshole. 0:48:37.800 --> 0:48:39.719 Yeah, but that's why New York is our asshole too, 0:48:39.760 --> 0:48:41.040 because we like. 0:48:43.000 --> 0:48:45.160 They got the compression can. 0:48:47.800 --> 0:48:51.640 But in the nineties, right, I was dating this girl 0:48:52.480 --> 0:48:58.320 in l A and I you know, and so I 0:48:58.480 --> 0:48:59.920 was like, you know, if she always come meet me. 0:49:00.080 --> 0:49:01.560 So I was like, you know one time, like let 0:49:01.600 --> 0:49:02.880 me go with your neighborhood. 0:49:03.120 --> 0:49:06.160 She was like no, And I was like, what I 0:49:06.200 --> 0:49:08.520 didn't understand the politic to me, Puerto. 0:49:08.280 --> 0:49:12.000 Ricans Mexican is the same.

Some people lead into that and lean lean 0:51:19.600 --> 0:51:22.240 into it a little bit more than they really should. 0:51:22.680 --> 0:51:24.040 And that's cool. It's got a lot of people a 0:51:24.080 --> 0:51:26.120 lot of money. If I did it, I don't even 0:51:26.120 --> 0:51:28.000 think I look right, would it? Like I did it 0:51:28.080 --> 0:51:30.239 in the video, but the video didn't really come out. 0:51:30.520 --> 0:51:33.719 I did a song with Big Rock, Uh called back 0:51:33.800 --> 0:51:35.680 it Up, and I'm actually in a khaki suit, but 0:51:35.719 --> 0:51:37.600 I reverse take all that bullshit. 0:51:37.200 --> 0:51:38.800 Off and then I just wear myself. 0:51:38.840 --> 0:51:41.759 But yeah, you know if you if you had, like 0:51:42.360 --> 0:51:44.600 you said, you had a choice, but if you had 0:51:44.719 --> 0:51:46.640 no choice, which game would you? 0:51:47.000 --> 0:51:48.480 You're closer to what the bloods. 0:51:49.160 --> 0:51:51.880 Kind of clezy? I would I grew up in the 0:51:51.920 --> 0:51:54.560 crib neighborhood. Okay, sorry, I would. I would have stepped 0:51:54.600 --> 0:51:56.040 in as a crib. 0:51:57.600 --> 0:52:02.600 Okay, let let's get off the stereotystical side of the 0:52:02.680 --> 0:52:05.919 West Coast. But the scene that kind of helped birth 0:52:06.040 --> 0:52:08.680 you in the and that that really deep hip hop 0:52:08.760 --> 0:52:11.000 scene in LA, like the scene that you come from 0:52:11.000 --> 0:52:13.319 at least because I'm sure there's the scene even before 0:52:13.360 --> 0:52:15.360 the iced t and all these guys were part of 0:52:15.719 --> 0:52:17.960 the legendary What was that? Was that one club that 0:52:18.040 --> 0:52:19.200 everybody was coming out. 0:52:19.120 --> 0:52:22.160 Of that was like, oh was that a freestyle fellowship? 0:52:22.200 --> 0:52:23.120 And all of them the good life? 0:52:23.200 --> 0:52:24.960 Yeah? Talk about the good life? Was that it? 0:52:25.120 --> 0:52:25.319 Yeah? 0:52:25.360 --> 0:52:26.880 The good life or the one that even all the 0:52:27.160 --> 0:52:30.919 Liquid crew and all these guys were Unity. That's the one. 0:52:31.000 --> 0:52:35.279 So Unity was the club. You probably wouldn't know. I 0:52:35.320 --> 0:52:39.160 don't remember you performed in LA back then. You performed 0:52:39.200 --> 0:52:42.160 at Unity. So Unity was a club. Rest in peace. 0:52:42.200 --> 0:52:45.200 Bigger Bee through and Bigger Be worked at loud. Okay, 0:52:45.400 --> 0:52:49.280 so him and Orlando, I'd be remiss because Bigger B recipes. 0:52:49.360 --> 0:52:51.360 Orlando is still alive. So they threw a club in 0:52:51.560 --> 0:52:56.440 La called You Downtown. Yeah, but it moved a few times, 0:52:56.480 --> 0:52:59.839 but it was always Unity. So Unity was first of all, 0:53:00.040 --> 0:53:02.640 it wasn't wasn't nobody really getting no daytime radio, so 0:53:02.680 --> 0:53:04.719 it was kind of like the wake Up Show was 0:53:04.880 --> 0:53:07.239 your one shot. At this point, it was only the 0:53:07.280 --> 0:53:09.279 wake Up Show. It was Swaying Tech. Before that it 0:53:09.360 --> 0:53:12.560 was Mike nardone and King Jams and and then they 0:53:13.360 --> 0:53:18.560 closed they show. I'm sorry, got to give problems. Yeah, 0:53:18.920 --> 0:53:22.759 Juliog was setting it off. He's actually even before with 0:53:23.680 --> 0:53:26.960 Mixed Masters Juliog. And then they kind of folded all 0:53:27.000 --> 0:53:29.359 that stuff. And then the next the next I would say, 0:53:29.400 --> 0:53:35.520 the next era of of Wrap radio became uh, thank 0:53:35.600 --> 0:53:39.200 you for giving me that too, Juliog. But then it 0:53:39.239 --> 0:53:42.880 became Unity. That was like the only outlet to perform. 0:53:43.480 --> 0:53:46.080 So yeah, yeah, that's where everybody like, that's the first 0:53:46.080 --> 0:53:48.680 time I ever got a show. I opened up, I 0:53:48.719 --> 0:53:51.480 had a demo, I had a white label record called 0:53:51.719 --> 0:53:54.640 Remaining Anonymous, Won't Catch Me Running. It got some support 0:53:54.680 --> 0:53:58.640 on college radio. And all that, and then I got 0:53:58.680 --> 0:54:00.920 booked and then me some money and I was like, 0:54:01.000 --> 0:54:05.759 I'm all in because I was just fanning. I was 0:54:05.840 --> 0:54:09.279 a fan and I didn't know people really did get 0:54:09.320 --> 0:54:10.799 but I didn't think I was gonna get some money 0:54:10.840 --> 0:54:13.279 for rapping. And I did the show. But yeah, that 0:54:13.440 --> 0:54:17.640 was like the Biggie the first shows. Biggie did the 0:54:17.840 --> 0:54:19.880 first shows like Wu Tang because he had loud so 0:54:20.000 --> 0:54:23.040 my beat that everybody that was coming to if he wasn't, 0:54:23.080 --> 0:54:25.799 if you wasn't like cool J, Salt and Pepper or something. 0:54:25.600 --> 0:54:27.560 Like that, and you for new artists. 0:54:28.280 --> 0:54:29.439 He was doing unity Wow. 0:54:29.880 --> 0:54:31.680 Because I like to bring that up because we talk 0:54:31.760 --> 0:54:35.200 about all the game banging side. But just like just 0:54:35.280 --> 0:54:37.440 like I said about Miami, like we had a thriving 0:54:37.520 --> 0:54:39.400 hip hop scene with B Boys, Big. 0:54:39.520 --> 0:54:41.279 I made it turntable lists. 0:54:41.280 --> 0:54:43.480 We got to talk about that too, but l as 0:54:43.840 --> 0:54:46.440 the illis turntable list, the Ills, B Boys and be 0:54:46.560 --> 0:54:48.759 with the graffiti scene is crazy. So they had all 0:54:48.840 --> 0:54:51.279 those elements that that was a big part of the 0:54:51.440 --> 0:54:51.960 LA scene. 0:54:52.239 --> 0:54:55.279 Yeah, yeah, absolutely we did. We We definitely had a 0:54:55.440 --> 0:54:57.840 great scene and a lot of the people still have 0:54:58.000 --> 0:55:04.000 you know, yeah, we still do I wanted to also 0:55:04.120 --> 0:55:07.600 add on to that is that hip hop for us, 0:55:07.800 --> 0:55:11.320 we saw the beach streets and the crush grooves and 0:55:11.440 --> 0:55:14.279 we started doing it. Literally, So a lot of my 0:55:14.440 --> 0:55:18.560 friends and how I even met most of my friends 0:55:18.920 --> 0:55:23.800 was because they had bopper clubs. So the teeny boppers, 0:55:24.040 --> 0:55:25.400 like you know what I'm saying, Like you couldn't be 0:55:25.480 --> 0:55:28.279 twenty one, you had to be twenty younger one, and 0:55:28.360 --> 0:55:31.879 they had one in Long Beach whatever. So while while 0:55:32.000 --> 0:55:35.480 we started you know, like break dancing like they called 0:55:35.520 --> 0:55:37.880 it housing in LA. So we was dancing and breaking, 0:55:38.560 --> 0:55:41.840 I was trying to wrap for like far Aside and 0:55:42.040 --> 0:55:44.040 the Licks and all these people like that's where we 0:55:44.120 --> 0:55:46.560 were beating at these bopper clubs, you know what I'm saying. 0:55:46.600 --> 0:55:49.560 And that's how we met so and so from from 0:55:49.680 --> 0:55:52.920 eighteenth Street and so and so from from East LA. 0:55:53.239 --> 0:55:54.759 You know what I'm saying, Because he might tag and 0:55:54.840 --> 0:55:58.040 he might also DJ, and that's how we was getting 0:55:58.160 --> 0:56:01.799 each other's hood. So it wasn't for the culture, LA 0:56:01.880 --> 0:56:05.040 would probably be the wild fucking West because that's how 0:56:05.080 --> 0:56:07.040 we got to know each other. I mean, and honestly, 0:56:07.120 --> 0:56:08.680 if you can tell the truth, if you go to 0:56:08.760 --> 0:56:12.759 a lot of hip hop clubs. Fucking I'll tell the truth, 0:56:12.800 --> 0:56:15.120 Shan the Devil. It be majority of the Mexican they 0:56:15.239 --> 0:56:17.120 really support hip hop shit. You know what I'm saying. 0:56:17.200 --> 0:56:20.759 Niggas be on some fucking forty five year old nigga 0:56:20.800 --> 0:56:24.800 trying to you know, act like he blue face, like nigga, 0:56:24.840 --> 0:56:28.240 grow the fuck up, you take them pants off, Nigga 0:56:28.239 --> 0:56:32.880 and titas shirt. But now the culture is really like 0:56:33.760 --> 0:56:38.960 it's being hip hop. Rap music was so influential in La. 0:56:39.160 --> 0:56:41.920 It helped us get to know each other because we're 0:56:41.920 --> 0:56:45.759 spread out, and it stopped people from shooting shit out 0:56:45.760 --> 0:56:48.279 each other for a long time for real, like because 0:56:48.280 --> 0:56:50.839 motherfucker's like, oh they'd be break dancing in New York. 0:56:51.760 --> 0:56:53.840 Maybe we shouldn't, you know, shouldn't shoot for real.

I'm super respected 0:57:51.480 --> 0:57:53.680 by my peers. I want to be respected at the 0:57:53.800 --> 0:57:57.640 fucking bank, all right, because yours definitely. 0:57:57.720 --> 0:57:59.520 Yeah, Yeah, my peers respect me. 0:57:59.720 --> 0:58:03.080 I don't don't think the I don't think the greater 0:58:03.240 --> 0:58:04.920 the greater audience is just fans. 0:58:04.960 --> 0:58:06.840 They only know what they hear. 0:58:06.800 --> 0:58:09.040 A lot, and that's no disrespect to them, you know 0:58:09.040 --> 0:58:12.520 what I'm saying. They're consumers. I'm a connoisseur, So consumers 0:58:12.640 --> 0:58:16.120 just know like McDonald's and I always tell people like 0:58:16.200 --> 0:58:18.880 McDonald's don't make the best burger, but that motherfucker's in 0:58:18.920 --> 0:58:21.880 the mall, that motherfucker's at the airport down the street. 0:58:22.440 --> 0:58:23.400 So I get it. 0:58:23.520 --> 0:58:26.560 But I'm not the McDonald's a wrap, you know what 0:58:26.560 --> 0:58:30.480 I'm saying, I'm that mom and Pops store.

So 0:58:36.720 --> 0:58:38.880 they got to figure out how them to fucking barry 0:58:38.920 --> 0:58:39.280 each other. 0:58:39.440 --> 0:58:43.080 But do you can you see itself a underground seat? 0:58:43.480 --> 0:58:45.720 No, I think that's the term they put on people 0:58:45.760 --> 0:58:47.800 that didn't sell records. The only difference between me and 0:58:47.920 --> 0:58:50.120 jay Z is a million records.

If I made a quote 0:59:15.920 --> 0:59:18.760 quote unquote made a million dollars and got the quote 0:59:18.840 --> 0:59:24.120 bag selling use condoms, my own used condoms. 0:59:24.880 --> 0:59:26.400 Motherfuckers would buy my records. 0:59:26.720 --> 0:59:30.160 She's like, oh my god, it's so hot.

For everybody you mentioned, 1:10:46.960 --> 1:10:56.920 I love and respect Cypress Hill or the Licks. I'm 1:10:56.920 --> 1:10:59.400 gonna give it to Cypress Hill. I'm gonna tell you 1:10:59.520 --> 1:11:06.639 why b be Real and what they were going through. 1:11:08.200 --> 1:11:10.799 Uh in that era. 1:11:13.520 --> 1:11:17.439 For for being Latino, hell no, be real. 1:11:17.360 --> 1:11:18.400 From a gang and it ain't. 1:11:22.800 --> 1:11:26.200 You know. So, but I'm saying him having to even 1:11:26.280 --> 1:11:28.760 find his voice, you know what I'm saying. So that 1:11:28.840 --> 1:11:31.600 creative didn't let alone the Latino part of it. But 1:11:31.680 --> 1:11:33.240 see what I have to explain, let me, let me 1:11:33.560 --> 1:11:38.040 keep the keep your thoughts. Let's just stop and realize 1:11:38.080 --> 1:11:41.920 that in l A there's a politics called black, white, 1:11:42.240 --> 1:11:46.479 Mexican other. There's no Cuban, there's no Puerto Rican. You 1:11:46.560 --> 1:11:48.280 are either Mexican or you are. 1:11:48.840 --> 1:11:50.040 Right, so. 1:11:52.120 --> 1:11:54.720 We we operate. You got like the rest of the 1:11:54.760 --> 1:11:57.280 country operates on these other premises that don't exist in 1:11:57.479 --> 1:12:02.479 l A. No matter what you are, because he either 1:12:03.920 --> 1:12:07.479 or there is no option. So Puerto Rican, you're going 1:12:07.560 --> 1:12:10.400 have to decide right along those lines. You're going to 1:12:10.439 --> 1:12:13.280 be a Mexican or you're gonna be an other, which 1:12:13.439 --> 1:12:19.600 means you with the niggas. So having people like be 1:12:19.800 --> 1:12:21.680 and them having having a step up and try to 1:12:21.720 --> 1:12:24.479 be honest with themselves, like, hey, I'm a Latino and 1:12:24.600 --> 1:12:26.280 you know what I'm saying, and I speak Spanish or whatever. 1:12:26.400 --> 1:12:29.040 That's dope in the in in how they were able 1:12:29.080 --> 1:12:31.360 to survive it, and hopefully that gave some inspiration and 1:12:31.400 --> 1:12:33.920 it brings all all of us together, you know what 1:12:33.960 --> 1:12:36.800 I'm saying. But nobody ever wants to tell the truth. 1:12:36.920 --> 1:12:39.640 And that's why there's so many misconceptions to go to 1:12:39.720 --> 1:12:41.760 jail and you will find out. I've had to watch 1:12:42.640 --> 1:12:45.720 well there's there's underneath that, there's bite side and all 1:12:45.760 --> 1:12:49.000 this other stuff in prison. But yeah, those are the 1:12:49.080 --> 1:12:52.479 general rules. Nobody cares if you're Filipino or whatever you are. 1:12:52.600 --> 1:12:56.000 Other and you with them niggas, You with you, you 1:12:56.120 --> 1:12:59.680 with them niggas. Now hopefully with what's horribly going to 1:13:00.200 --> 1:13:02.679 what in our country that all even our man conn 1:13:02.680 --> 1:13:05.840 of when they're staying like we all niggas, bro, they 1:13:05.920 --> 1:13:07.360 don't like that, so I don't we get there? 1:13:08.479 --> 1:13:11.240 And I just thought about it the other day. They 1:13:11.320 --> 1:13:12.599 really had a hit record card. 1:13:13.040 --> 1:13:16.160 I could just hear the man, you know, I was. 1:13:16.280 --> 1:13:23.320 I was thinking about that away with that drink chan sports. 1:13:23.360 --> 1:13:25.080 He put me onto it in in high school, and 1:13:25.120 --> 1:13:27.040 I was like, no fucking way to have a record. 1:13:27.760 --> 1:13:31.360 You didn't know that, no brand new fresh, you know, 1:13:31.439 --> 1:13:33.439 I'm like, no way they called it that record. I 1:13:35.320 --> 1:13:38.400 heard their demo because I was I had a deal 1:13:39.280 --> 1:13:42.920 that I fucked off, uh or, I had a deal opportunity, 1:13:43.040 --> 1:13:46.799 a couple of deal opportunities early on. And then I remember, 1:13:46.960 --> 1:13:48.400 you know back then you get the tape. So I 1:13:48.479 --> 1:13:51.120 got like grand Man's you know what I'm saying, album 1:13:51.240 --> 1:13:53.880 like cassettes, like industry ship Niggas is already.

Like I've been 1:30:06.200 --> 1:30:08.160 to La New York. What would you put though? 1:30:09.000 --> 1:30:11.080 Because I'm not even thinking about the timeline, So. 1:30:11.200 --> 1:30:12.280 Think about America's most. 1:30:13.040 --> 1:30:15.560 King T too, though I feel like King T was 1:30:16.680 --> 1:30:17.559 Maybe I'm being unfair. 1:30:17.640 --> 1:30:19.519 I never even thought about that.

So there's there's different components to this. 1:30:31.160 --> 1:30:35.840 Some people are dope rappers. I think Biz Markey was dope. 1:30:36.000 --> 1:30:38.680 You know what I'm saying. I think, uh, you know, 1:30:40.280 --> 1:30:44.200 I think some people are stylistic. I'm trying to think 1:30:44.200 --> 1:30:50.439 of somebody that just had amazing and peccable styles. Yeah 1:30:50.600 --> 1:30:53.000 that was easy, that was long hanging truth. But some 1:30:53.080 --> 1:30:55.800 people are lyricists. Rock Cam to God is a lyricist. 1:30:57.040 --> 1:30:57.680 Wordsmiths. 1:30:58.040 --> 1:30:59.920 You know, you can type it out and read it. 1:31:00.320 --> 1:31:03.200 It'll fuck your head up. And that's the difference. See 1:31:03.840 --> 1:31:06.439 some of you know, most people are programmed because it's 1:31:06.560 --> 1:31:09.680 music that you're going by what you hear, and then 1:31:09.800 --> 1:31:11.400 now it's so fucked up you're going by what you 1:31:11.479 --> 1:31:14.200 see as opposed to what you hear. It's music, not 1:31:14.360 --> 1:31:17.240 my video, now, what I look like, not who I'm 1:31:17.320 --> 1:31:22.599 down with.

And then they asked me 1:43:28.960 --> 1:43:31.320 who it was and I'd be like, I don't know anybody, 1:43:31.840 --> 1:43:34.400 so I'm always at fault. You got to take the 1:43:34.479 --> 1:43:36.639 par for the course if you want to be out 1:43:36.720 --> 1:43:40.920 here and try to figure out everything that we have 1:43:41.000 --> 1:43:43.720 to learn. Sometimes we're harder headed. Friends try to tell 1:43:43.760 --> 1:43:46.559 you things, parents try to tell you things. I've learned 1:43:46.600 --> 1:43:52.360 more most things. I've realized that I have to learn 1:43:53.160 --> 1:43:55.640 how to be me. Nobody else can teach me how 1:43:55.680 --> 1:43:56.840 to be me. I have to go out here and 1:43:56.920 --> 1:43:59.240 go experience it. At least now I can speak on 1:43:59.320 --> 1:44:03.080 it and get that are at myself.

Initially, 1:44:54.800 --> 1:44:57.040 when Pete got out of prison, I got another good 1:44:57.080 --> 1:45:01.280 story for you. Okay, he gets out of prison. He's 1:45:01.360 --> 1:45:05.560 in Hollywood and he's like, yo, come here. I'm like 1:45:05.920 --> 1:45:12.479 what yo, come here.

He like so when he went 1:45:26.000 --> 1:45:29.080 to prison, he started smoking tops. That's tobacco, right, tobacco? 1:45:29.160 --> 1:45:31.120 What is that organic? Yes? 1:45:31.680 --> 1:45:33.080 Yeah, yeah it's British. 1:45:34.320 --> 1:45:41.720 I'm britsh is whatshri y? Okay yeah, I want to 1:45:41.840 --> 1:45:46.680 be a cowboy, could be a cowboy. But yeah, that 1:45:47.040 --> 1:45:49.840 it was super funny. So I remember he was like, yo, 1:45:50.040 --> 1:45:52.479 done when you was you know what I'm saying. Ever 1:45:52.680 --> 1:45:55.679 since I met you, I always was trying to figure 1:45:55.680 --> 1:45:57.240 out what the fuck is wrong with you? Because you 1:45:57.320 --> 1:46:01.200 be browing these little packs. I was like ships fire. 1:46:01.320 --> 1:46:03.920 So we actually ate the like at the end, like 1:46:04.120 --> 1:46:07.920 the last like five years, like Pete was smoking smoking 1:46:08.000 --> 1:46:11.040 tops because in New York, y'all smoked tops. 1:46:11.120 --> 1:46:14.000 We smoked beautiful. Okay, yeah, so that was that. That 1:46:14.160 --> 1:46:16.599 was is that supposed to be healthier. 1:46:18.360 --> 1:46:21.960 It's all funked up, but okay, it's better than like 1:46:22.720 --> 1:46:27.080 a bogie, like yeah, think about the piperglass in it. 1:46:27.479 --> 1:46:29.519 Yes, the tobacco is healthier. 1:46:29.600 --> 1:46:32.400 It's a better tobacco. They have different brands like but 1:46:32.520 --> 1:46:36.759 when you go to you you tore the same difference 1:46:36.840 --> 1:46:38.680 like that. But I don't like the filters on them 1:46:38.720 --> 1:46:41.560 because it's fiberglass. So I'd rather just get tobacco. I 1:46:41.680 --> 1:46:52.600 used to smoke beadies. Yes, amazing, it was, but you 1:46:52.680 --> 1:46:53.920 got a head as soon as he said that. 1:46:55.560 --> 1:46:57.360 You know. 1:46:59.560 --> 1:47:00.480 That they. 1:47:02.600 --> 1:47:06.080 Is healthy, right, Tobacco is healthy? Well, this is what 1:47:06.240 --> 1:47:09.080 you know, the internet is crazy. Everything is backwards, forward 1:47:09.160 --> 1:47:11.680 and top. But now they're saying, if you think about it, 1:47:11.720 --> 1:47:15.280 and the Native Americans used to smoke tobacco, and and 1:47:15.400 --> 1:47:18.360 now they're saying, the only reason tobacco got got dangerous 1:47:18.400 --> 1:47:20.920 for our they put the filters with all the ship 1:47:21.040 --> 1:47:23.360 in the nicotine and all the crap like that. 1:47:23.520 --> 1:47:26.400 It's fact. So well it's not facts. I can't actually 1:47:26.439 --> 1:47:29.920 do it, but think about it. Every time government wants 1:47:30.000 --> 1:47:33.760 to regulate they add ship. Think about it. Coaina, No, 1:47:34.960 --> 1:47:35.800 it's not a bad thing. 1:47:37.800 --> 1:47:43.000 I mean, cocaine was originally was a medicine before it. 1:47:43.040 --> 1:47:48.640 Was what what times I was being killing America synthetic 1:47:49.000 --> 1:47:52.400 when they do it, when they do it, they make 1:47:52.520 --> 1:47:56.360 the fuck the version. They outlawed the natural to create 1:47:56.400 --> 1:47:57.960 an unnatural to tax. 1:47:57.800 --> 1:48:00.080 Sho like like you know how we talk about they 1:48:00.120 --> 1:48:02.960 are playing stage stuff and we're wondering if stage does 1:48:03.000 --> 1:48:05.760 anything they said Supposedly scientists found out that sage that 1:48:05.920 --> 1:48:08.280 smoke actually clears out certain bacteria. 1:48:08.680 --> 1:48:12.719 People have been on this fucking why. I don't trust 1:48:12.760 --> 1:48:15.240 the government. I trust people's cultures. 1:48:16.320 --> 1:48:20.200 Old cultures way older and more ancient than our modern 1:48:20.280 --> 1:48:21.240 day pharmaceuticals. 1:48:21.840 --> 1:48:24.679 They were called from DA Drugs. 1:48:24.760 --> 1:48:28.400 They're the drug dealer, all right. 1:48:28.760 --> 1:48:31.200 But we didn't say it. Please relax, buddies. 1:48:33.400 --> 1:48:34.080 So that's the last. 1:48:34.960 --> 1:48:41.360 We go back to an interview. Absolutely, Uh, loyalty or respect. 1:48:44.120 --> 1:48:51.040 Loving? Right, I'm unlathy. Tell me why respect has gotten 1:48:51.120 --> 1:48:54.639 me where it's gotten me, but loalty would have gotten 1:48:54.680 --> 1:48:58.360 me more. I think when people are loyal to a cause, 1:48:58.920 --> 1:49:03.640 you can accomplish more. People respect because they have to. 1:49:04.560 --> 1:49:12.880 Lowty is given good yea, And I'm gonna take a piss. 1:49:13.000 --> 1:49:18.479 That's all right, So let's get into the new album. Yes, sir, 1:49:19.640 --> 1:49:20.800 let's let's get into the track list. 1:49:21.040 --> 1:49:21.519 What's the track? 1:49:21.600 --> 1:49:23.599 Let's at you want to look at the track? 1:49:23.760 --> 1:49:28.719 It's hard to read that ship. To read that ship, 1:49:30.200 --> 1:49:32.720 it's not a vinyl. That's just funked up. Okay, who 1:49:32.800 --> 1:49:34.080 asked me? Just ask me a question. 1:49:34.680 --> 1:49:36.479 I'm saying, how did how did this come about? 1:49:36.960 --> 1:49:39.559 You? You were not trying to get people to read this, bro? 1:49:39.840 --> 1:49:42.280 Let me see let me see if it's not gonna 1:49:43.479 --> 1:49:49.479 ask me about the back cover. Okay, this is this 1:49:49.600 --> 1:49:55.800 is the No, that's the okay, asked me about the 1:49:55.840 --> 1:49:58.479 back Oh my god, don't you know that picture. 1:49:59.200 --> 1:50:03.920 No, you know that picture. Let me see letie you. 1:50:03.920 --> 1:50:08.200 Know I just tried to do let me young people 1:50:08.680 --> 1:50:10.680 will do a big cutout so you can see it. 1:50:11.240 --> 1:50:15.160 You know this picture? You know this picture. It is 1:50:15.200 --> 1:50:18.439 a fucking iconic picture. I just fucked it up on 1:50:18.560 --> 1:50:23.200 some brazil this ship purposely for fun. Do I have 1:50:23.320 --> 1:50:24.280 to tell you what the picture is? 1:50:24.400 --> 1:50:24.560 You do? 1:50:24.760 --> 1:50:27.240 You do? And Vibe magazine there was a very and 1:50:27.320 --> 1:50:29.799 then it went viral. Back in the day when Kanye 1:50:30.040 --> 1:50:33.559 was walking in Paris before the song Niggas in Paris 1:50:33.600 --> 1:50:39.479 and he's walking with these people. Now what here's the 1:50:39.640 --> 1:50:45.639 rub here is I knew the dude on the left. 1:50:45.680 --> 1:50:47.240 We grew up together. So it's a whole bunch of 1:50:47.320 --> 1:50:49.320 kids with the same kind of names. There was a tags, 1:50:49.400 --> 1:50:52.400 there was a rash, there was a task. There was 1:50:52.439 --> 1:50:58.880 a tash, but that's task Tisa, tas Arnold will signing 1:50:58.960 --> 1:51:01.280 Kanye whatever. And then one of these people happens to 1:51:01.280 --> 1:51:04.360 be and this picture. So it's very iconic picture. They 1:51:04.400 --> 1:51:06.840 were in Paris with some real fancy schmancy and I 1:51:06.880 --> 1:51:08.720 remember I was just coming out of jail and I 1:51:08.800 --> 1:51:12.720 was like wow, And so I thought the picture was 1:51:12.760 --> 1:51:16.400 super iconic. The bar is also if you pay attention, 1:51:17.120 --> 1:51:20.479 they was on some super high fashion, high money ship 1:51:21.920 --> 1:51:24.280 the brand. If you pay attention to the brand that 1:51:24.320 --> 1:51:29.000 they're wearing. No, poor people could recognize the brand that 1:51:29.080 --> 1:51:31.479 they were wearing. So I realized, niggas be ahead of 1:51:31.520 --> 1:51:35.800 the curb. Sometimes you're behind the curve. So what I 1:51:35.920 --> 1:51:39.400 did was because I knew the dude on the left 1:51:40.760 --> 1:51:44.080 and he was my I grew up with this particular 1:51:44.120 --> 1:51:48.519 person on the picture. No, I changed the face. I 1:51:48.600 --> 1:51:53.960 put Jaguar right, which is it's hilarious. So it's hilarious 1:51:54.040 --> 1:51:58.679 celebrities face. And I keep doing shit, i'd said, I griselded, Yes, 1:51:58.880 --> 1:52:00.640 I am. I don't add for permission. 1:52:01.760 --> 1:52:03.400 I asked forgive. 1:52:05.760 --> 1:52:11.120 Taking taks Arnold's face and it's hilarious, so inside joke, 1:52:11.200 --> 1:52:14.639 I'm gonna ask. It's so funny to me, so waiting 1:52:14.720 --> 1:52:16.720 for tasks to get mad at me. I said I 1:52:16.720 --> 1:52:20.080 would ask for permission. I know, I said, I asked 1:52:20.120 --> 1:52:24.400 for forgiveness. I don't ask for permission. So I took 1:52:24.479 --> 1:52:27.680 the iconic picture and I made it work for my 1:52:27.920 --> 1:52:33.560 construct because he because task was wearing those pants and 1:52:33.840 --> 1:52:36.000 what we grew up. So those pants, that's real in 1:52:36.040 --> 1:52:42.200 the picture. That's his pants. Jesus Christmas, and no judgment here, sir. 1:52:43.040 --> 1:52:44.479 People could be who they want to be and they 1:52:44.520 --> 1:52:48.240 can express themselves. Anyway. I did that, and then I 1:52:48.439 --> 1:52:50.160 just showed it to a few of our friends that 1:52:50.240 --> 1:52:52.240 we have mutual friends. I was like, are you going 1:52:52.320 --> 1:52:53.840 to show it to the task? I was like, never 1:52:53.920 --> 1:52:56.960 in life, I'm going to do it because it was 1:52:57.000 --> 1:53:00.120 already in every magazine. It's fucking to the world. I'm 1:53:00.320 --> 1:53:02.360 just change his face and everybody else will just blur 1:53:02.439 --> 1:53:05.200 out their fucking faces because it's Leberty's face. He had 1:53:05.240 --> 1:53:10.200 the fucking leopard pants. Fucking run the play. So I 1:53:10.360 --> 1:53:14.600 ran the play. So I think the back cover it's hilarious. 1:53:15.560 --> 1:53:19.400 I think it's totally funny. That's my personality type. And yeah, 1:53:20.640 --> 1:53:23.360 that's the shirt I'm wearing. So again, it looks better 1:53:23.439 --> 1:53:26.680 on the shirt for some. I mean it's smaller, you 1:53:26.760 --> 1:53:28.080 know what I mean, There's only so much you can 1:53:28.120 --> 1:53:31.800 fit on a two inch. Yeah, and this is what 1:53:31.880 --> 1:53:33.759 the vinyl looks like and all kind of cool ships. 1:53:34.040 --> 1:53:37.160 But yeah, so yeah, Leberty's face. It was fun to 1:53:37.280 --> 1:53:40.840 do it. Kanye, if I piss off Kanye, so be it. 1:53:41.000 --> 1:53:42.800 I got the track list, by the way, Oh you 1:53:42.880 --> 1:53:43.160 got it? 1:53:43.240 --> 1:53:43.479 Thank you? 1:53:43.760 --> 1:53:46.080 Yeah?

And you know any rappers dream in 1:55:23.000 --> 1:55:32.400 nineteen ninety mid five Death Jam, I had, I had, 1:55:33.600 --> 1:55:36.480 I think now was hotter than Death Jam in ninety five, 1:55:37.960 --> 1:55:41.640 me saying, just hear me out, Okay, I didn't know 1:55:42.160 --> 1:55:45.160 was it an come on to ninety seven. What what 1:55:45.280 --> 1:55:48.120 I'm saying is it's not on the table for me. 1:55:48.280 --> 1:55:50.840 I know who Priorty Records has given me an option. 1:55:51.480 --> 1:55:56.280 Death Jam gives me an option death American, which is 1:55:56.440 --> 1:55:59.040 Rick Rubin. Rick Rubin used to pick me up in 1:55:59.240 --> 1:56:04.600 Carson Wow and a Rose Royce left jas. He created 1:56:04.640 --> 1:56:07.360 the American, but it was death American. Then he became American. 1:56:08.000 --> 1:56:10.080 He used to pick shoes. When he picked you up 1:56:10.360 --> 1:56:10.560 in a. 1:56:10.600 --> 1:56:14.400 Bentley, he looked like Santa Claus and he probably looked 1:56:14.560 --> 1:56:17.560 it probably looked really crazy, this little black kid getting 1:56:17.720 --> 1:56:24.560 in the tribut Christ. It probably look great, right, But 1:56:24.720 --> 1:56:27.800 he would give me. He would he would pick me up. 1:56:28.320 --> 1:56:31.880 I don't want to get off track, I'll land this plane. 1:56:32.400 --> 1:56:35.720 But he would pick me, pick me up and give 1:56:35.800 --> 1:56:41.120 me demos of unberleased Beastie Boys in ll cool J 1:56:41.320 --> 1:56:42.360 record Wow Wow. 1:56:43.200 --> 1:56:44.680 Invested in me, believed. 1:56:44.400 --> 1:56:45.840 In me, which is why I did the song with 1:56:45.920 --> 1:56:50.920 Chino Excel recipes because I didn't sign to him and 1:56:51.000 --> 1:56:53.280 it was one other option. So I had four like 1:56:53.400 --> 1:56:55.440 a bidding more. You know what that is. You know 1:56:55.520 --> 1:56:57.480 what that is. So I had a bitting more. I 1:56:57.720 --> 1:57:00.200 never heard loud because I would have just picked out. 1:57:00.800 --> 1:57:03.600 So when Rifkins said that to me, I was like, 1:57:04.800 --> 1:57:06.560 you know what I'm saying, Like whatever, it's only like 1:57:06.640 --> 1:57:08.760 four or five years ago. It's like, you're the only 1:57:08.880 --> 1:57:12.000 artist that never signed me that I made an offer for. 1:57:12.120 --> 1:57:15.480 I said, well, lies you tell. I'm like, bro, you 1:57:15.560 --> 1:57:17.720 ain't never gave me no offer. He's like, no, I 1:57:17.920 --> 1:57:20.480 gave an offer and d D da da da.

And I know who didn't tell me because 1:57:30.680 --> 1:57:35.840 they wanted the money. The production company, the production we're 1:57:35.840 --> 1:57:38.760 going to get somewhere else. We got more money, but 1:57:38.920 --> 1:57:44.160 the production company that didn't produce shit wanted money. They're 1:57:44.160 --> 1:57:47.640 gonna hold you out. That's what the artist is. Ultimately, 1:57:48.360 --> 1:57:50.600 you didn't produce nothing. You just wanted what you wanted 1:57:50.720 --> 1:57:53.320 and fucked over mind. Yeah, if I would have had 1:57:53.360 --> 1:57:59.280 that object, what could have been? To be honest, it 1:57:59.480 --> 1:58:03.440 was before exhibit, that's what he told me for exhibit. 1:58:03.480 --> 1:58:05.720 But after the lis Yeah, of course the licks were 1:58:05.760 --> 1:58:09.160 the like through King t then the licks, and then 1:58:09.640 --> 1:58:12.920 I was you know, I had had an opportunity. I 1:58:13.040 --> 1:58:16.360 came back out that was doing well and then he 1:58:16.920 --> 1:58:21.480 and obviously what could have been? But yeah, my mama 1:58:21.640 --> 1:58:22.200 was my daddy. 1:58:22.640 --> 1:58:26.640 I mean, because imagine the alcoholics, you and Exhibit all 1:58:26.760 --> 1:58:28.160 together on loud on. 1:58:28.200 --> 1:58:31.040 That well, just think about Rizza is the first person 1:58:31.120 --> 1:58:35.400 that clears my first white label because we wanted to sell. 1:58:35.320 --> 1:58:40.960 It, right, Uh, was your first white label? 1:58:41.320 --> 1:58:45.080 My first white label ever put out. I sampled method man, 1:58:45.200 --> 1:58:47.640 you don't know me, you don't know my style. It's 1:58:47.680 --> 1:58:51.760 called remain Anonymous that I produced it, and then the 1:58:52.160 --> 1:58:54.280 B side was a song called Won't Catch Me Running. 1:58:54.560 --> 1:58:56.760 But then it was doing well and it was like 1:58:56.800 --> 1:58:58.720 we should try to sell it, so we had to 1:58:58.760 --> 1:59:01.920 clear the sample. Is a clear the sample. We're the 1:59:02.000 --> 1:59:07.160 first people that ever sampled boutang that cleared it. Because 1:59:07.240 --> 1:59:11.080 Rizza was like, I fucked with Rass and I credit 1:59:11.200 --> 1:59:14.040 kill a priest, kill a priest. We're kind of in 1:59:14.200 --> 1:59:17.240 that same bracket of you know, the year we come 1:59:17.320 --> 1:59:20.200 out or we're starting to pop priests, put Rizza on 1:59:20.320 --> 1:59:24.520 the RASS cast, and then Rizza always fucked with me 1:59:24.760 --> 1:59:26.440 to this day, Like you know what I'm saying, Like, 1:59:27.040 --> 1:59:31.240 I'm very blessed because I had people interceding and saying 1:59:31.280 --> 1:59:34.320 like brow a good nigga or bros talented and he 1:59:34.400 --> 1:59:36.800 ain't a fuck boy or whatever. So yeah, but if 1:59:36.840 --> 1:59:38.880 I would have signed it loud, yeah what could have been? 1:59:39.520 --> 1:59:39.720 Yeah? 1:59:40.680 --> 1:59:43.240 Too late now unless you unless you know how to 1:59:43.320 --> 1:59:49.640 do DC universe. Yeah, that guy has loud that guys 1:59:49.680 --> 1:59:59.840 like fucking rich and awful person. Do you get mad him? 2:00:00.000 --> 2:00:00.600 We're gonna make it. 2:00:01.840 --> 2:00:07.120 That was a good question. No, No, here here's the truth. 2:00:07.840 --> 2:00:10.480 And I'm gonna say this as politically correct as possible. 2:00:11.080 --> 2:00:16.440 I've never had a problem with Jada. I'm a fan. 2:00:17.440 --> 2:00:21.120 I saw Jada and them. I remember when the clips 2:00:21.240 --> 2:00:24.400 was doing. This was in Puerto Rico. What happened to 2:00:24.480 --> 2:00:26.120 that boy? That was the first time I had seen 2:00:26.200 --> 2:00:29.880 Jada in like years, I remember, and I was like, nah, 2:00:29.920 --> 2:00:33.480 I don't have an issue. And now, to make a 2:00:34.040 --> 2:00:38.920 very convoluted story simple, me and Al we've had our 2:00:38.960 --> 2:00:43.240 conversation and ship I have a party called five Mics 2:00:43.680 --> 2:00:48.840 that for the culture, trying to do the unity thing 2:00:49.040 --> 2:00:53.600 and bringing you know, LA hip hop culture back together, black, brown, yellow, white, green, 2:00:53.880 --> 2:00:58.560 male female whatever. So now I saw him at I 2:00:58.640 --> 2:01:03.120 saw him in nash It was the mob deeper part. Yeah, 2:01:03.640 --> 2:01:09.360 in La and so Al came up and actually I 2:01:09.440 --> 2:01:12.640 did the fun thing. He's like photographs because it wasn't 2:01:12.640 --> 2:01:14.720 a lot of us upstairs. And then I was just like, 2:01:15.120 --> 2:01:15.800 what up, nigga? 2:01:16.360 --> 2:01:18.000 You know what I'm saying. I even call him the nigga. 2:01:18.360 --> 2:01:19.360 I was like, what up niggas? 2:01:19.640 --> 2:01:21.040 You know what I'm saying. He's like, man, I want 2:01:21.040 --> 2:01:22.480 to do the find mics. I was like, yeah, let's 2:01:22.480 --> 2:01:24.760 do it, and he's like, let's cook. I was like, yeah, 2:01:24.840 --> 2:01:29.200 let's do it. So we let's talk it to a misunderstanding. 2:01:30.400 --> 2:01:33.120 Al was super talented. I can't take from somebody but 2:01:33.280 --> 2:01:35.560 God gave you know what I'm saying, or they're hard work, 2:01:35.800 --> 2:01:39.440 same thing. I'm ready to move forward, and I think 2:01:39.480 --> 2:01:41.560 the record, I'm not stand on this. 2:01:44.560 --> 2:01:45.560 My record. 2:01:47.200 --> 2:01:53.080 Is not a two track, it's the files. My verses 2:01:53.240 --> 2:01:56.760 are dope, We're gonna make it. It's icond of it 2:01:57.040 --> 2:02:01.040 was there already, No no, no no, because there's mine 2:02:01.160 --> 2:02:07.680 is Home Sweet Home right Well, I did it with 2:02:07.840 --> 2:02:10.440 Starringbuck Wilde and performed it. It's on Case Slave mixtape. 2:02:10.680 --> 2:02:13.240 But I don't want to get into those weeds because 2:02:13.360 --> 2:02:17.640 then it becomes defense mechanism. I think Alice dope, we 2:02:17.720 --> 2:02:20.600 had a misunderstanding. We move on. I want to do 2:02:20.680 --> 2:02:22.600 a song with me and him called Barry the Hatchet 2:02:23.120 --> 2:02:26.640 and he was like, Yo, we should cook. I was like, yeah, 2:02:26.720 --> 2:02:29.320 let's cook. Let's move forward. And on No Days Off 2:02:29.520 --> 2:02:31.920 we had did a record on his album. We did 2:02:31.960 --> 2:02:36.120 a song where we killed it. We had so much fun. 2:02:36.240 --> 2:02:38.360 So I don't want to live in the past. I 2:02:38.440 --> 2:02:43.240 think what Styles and Jada did is amazing and two 2:02:43.360 --> 2:02:46.640 things can coexist at the same time. So great record. 2:02:47.080 --> 2:02:49.840 My album didn't even come out. My album on the 2:02:50.000 --> 2:02:53.640 label didn't come out. That would have been on Van 2:02:53.680 --> 2:02:56.240 go it would have been on Mango. And so yeah, 2:02:56.520 --> 2:02:58.960 my album because of my label ship. So at least 2:02:59.040 --> 2:03:02.280 the wait that album came out, it never came out, 2:03:03.200 --> 2:03:06.000 never came out. I put it out later. Thanks for 2:03:06.120 --> 2:03:14.440 telling my inemigo. Yeah, we had, we had physical copies 2:03:14.480 --> 2:03:17.040 of this, like with the artwork. But that's when Capital 2:03:17.160 --> 2:03:21.440 was getting bought, was buying out the other half. All right, Well, 2:03:22.000 --> 2:03:26.880 at the time Priorti was independent and then Brian Turner 2:03:27.040 --> 2:03:29.800 owned fifty one percent. They bought him out and they 2:03:29.840 --> 2:03:33.320 got the other two percent, so he became forty nine 2:03:33.400 --> 2:03:37.080 and then they were making it Capital. They were like, 2:03:37.240 --> 2:03:40.040 we're gonna close down Priority and just make it Capitol Records. 2:03:40.360 --> 2:03:42.960 Only only a few people made that cut. It was 2:03:43.080 --> 2:03:47.760 like Snoop Dogg Me we got slid in with like 2:03:49.360 --> 2:03:52.920 Faith Evans whatever, so it was only like six artists. 2:03:52.960 --> 2:03:55.320 But you know that that was the whole journey. So 2:03:55.480 --> 2:03:58.320 my record didn't get promoted. And then we went in 2:03:58.560 --> 2:04:01.840 from Van Gold we went into Golden Child, So I 2:04:01.920 --> 2:04:05.600 took certain records off of here and then went into 2:04:05.640 --> 2:04:07.560 the Golden Child with Premiere and all that stuff. So 2:04:07.720 --> 2:04:10.400 it was just all this corporate ship and just trying 2:04:10.440 --> 2:04:12.840 to make it be okay. But ultimately my point is 2:04:13.480 --> 2:04:16.480 at least we're gonna make it exist and the ship fire? 2:04:16.520 --> 2:04:18.760 Is that the only record you did with Alchemists? No, 2:04:18.920 --> 2:04:22.320 I've done multiple records. Yeah, I'm known OWT for no 2:04:22.440 --> 2:04:26.120 I know. I just you guys make great. I've done 2:04:26.200 --> 2:04:29.360 songs with our since that. That's what I'm saying. So 2:04:29.480 --> 2:04:31.480 he had an album called No Days Off when he's 2:04:31.600 --> 2:04:33.600 like DJM for eminem. 2:04:33.320 --> 2:04:35.080 So why does it feel like you guys just mended 2:04:35.200 --> 2:04:35.520 the beef. 2:04:36.960 --> 2:04:40.120 I'm not going to go into that again. We are 2:04:40.240 --> 2:04:44.920 okay today. You guys are local man, well you know 2:04:45.360 --> 2:04:48.640 la ship, but my brother is talented. I want to 2:04:49.120 --> 2:04:52.320 I want to do a song called now you had. 2:04:52.200 --> 2:04:53.880 A project together, a whole project. 2:04:53.920 --> 2:04:55.320 Well put that in the universe. 2:04:55.360 --> 2:04:59.960 I think, don't come outside, We'll come outside. 2:05:00.040 --> 2:05:01.760 How come you know we never did one? Know? 2:05:01.840 --> 2:05:03.400 I thought that about I thought about that today. 2:05:03.480 --> 2:05:06.520 Yeah, sound great together as well? That would be crazy. 2:05:06.600 --> 2:05:08.840 This is a part of the if we skipped on 2:05:09.480 --> 2:05:13.200 quick Time with Slim. What do you prefer being on 2:05:13.280 --> 2:05:14.880 a major or being independent? 2:05:15.800 --> 2:05:19.200 I already know, good question.

He 2:12:26.400 --> 2:12:29.080 was on the water rap right exactly, wrap and so 2:12:29.840 --> 2:12:32.360 across the street. I see, yeah, so we were I 2:12:32.400 --> 2:12:35.280 forgot you were that yes, crazy on that bill. I 2:12:35.360 --> 2:12:36.000 was on the bill too. 2:12:36.840 --> 2:12:38.000 I wasn't on the bill. Excuse me. 2:12:38.640 --> 2:12:41.560 ONX brought me out. Ironically, ONX brought me out. I 2:12:41.680 --> 2:12:43.200 asked him to do with my food show, and they 2:12:43.280 --> 2:12:44.640 was like, yo, well if. 2:12:44.560 --> 2:12:45.440 I have a show tomorrow. 2:12:45.520 --> 2:12:46.760 Nay. It was super hot that day. 2:12:46.840 --> 2:12:49.800 It was super hot, and the green loss the street. 2:12:49.840 --> 2:12:51.960 I saw people as soon as he got stage right. 2:12:52.200 --> 2:12:55.080 So so when when pe got off stage, we went 2:12:55.280 --> 2:12:59.280 back into the green room, and then we all walked out. 2:13:00.200 --> 2:13:03.960 It's opposite way, so I don't feel like moving, But 2:13:04.280 --> 2:13:07.000 the point is it was opposite. So let's say this 2:13:07.240 --> 2:13:09.040 is the green room and that's the back of the 2:13:09.080 --> 2:13:10.360 stage across the street. 2:13:10.920 --> 2:13:12.000 We all walked out. 2:13:12.600 --> 2:13:16.440 He went that way into the suburban me and have 2:13:16.760 --> 2:13:19.360 walked up and back in and I think Ray and 2:13:19.440 --> 2:13:20.560 Ghost was that's crazy. 2:13:20.760 --> 2:13:24.200 You must have walked because he must have walked right 2:13:24.720 --> 2:13:27.280 by me and walked right into you. Because like, the 2:13:27.360 --> 2:13:29.360 only reason why I would have went backstage and I 2:13:29.440 --> 2:13:33.320 went backstage after well we'll have it. But the only 2:13:33.360 --> 2:13:37.240 reason why I didn't go because because I had. 2:13:37.120 --> 2:13:41.240 To perform it. Yeah, and I saw them too, yeah, 2:13:41.320 --> 2:13:42.320 because so. 2:13:44.040 --> 2:13:50.680 I remember, you know, I'm doing all this justice when 2:13:50.720 --> 2:13:53.800 I first walked into the green room, which was across 2:13:53.920 --> 2:13:59.640 the street, because I saw having pee, I saw ghosts 2:13:59.640 --> 2:14:04.560 from Ray and he was a little irritable, right, and uh, 2:14:05.480 --> 2:14:07.080 I thought he was like kind of upset, you know 2:14:07.160 --> 2:14:10.200 what I'm saying. And I'm like, uh, not me, just 2:14:10.320 --> 2:14:13.000 you know, having a bad day.

I hope I hope 2:18:13.760 --> 2:18:17.000 they can create enough more because Mob deep forever for me. 2:18:17.400 --> 2:18:19.480 You know what I'm saying, people, my homie, have my homie. 2:18:19.640 --> 2:18:20.240 You know what I'm saying. 2:18:20.280 --> 2:18:22.360 I love I love my brother me and you got 2:18:22.879 --> 2:18:27.279 the same story basically, yeah, like there basically he basically 2:18:27.400 --> 2:18:30.360 walked by me to walk You're giving us the story 2:18:30.640 --> 2:18:33.640 before the story in Yeah, that's just that's that. 2:18:34.280 --> 2:18:40.800 I got family. Ye, what do you what do you like? 2:18:41.080 --> 2:18:42.200 What do you like more? 2:18:45.000 --> 2:18:47.640 Making the record, performing a record? 2:18:48.000 --> 2:18:52.760 Two different animals. I love the creatives. I love sitting 2:18:52.840 --> 2:18:55.960 there and like being with the producer and being with 2:18:56.080 --> 2:18:59.400 the people like that ship the animals crazy. You know 2:18:59.440 --> 2:19:03.800 what I'm saying, because I remember Doctor Dre saying like 2:19:03.920 --> 2:19:05.640 throw it against the wall of his stick and stick. 2:19:06.160 --> 2:19:08.520 You know what I'm saying, Like it's cool to make 2:19:08.640 --> 2:19:12.800 something and think it's cool until your homies come in 2:19:12.879 --> 2:19:17.680 and be like no. But if they're dope people, they 2:19:17.720 --> 2:19:20.440 can tell you why. Right, So I might make some 2:19:20.520 --> 2:19:24.800 ship and then the homies like Trump's whack like, well, 2:19:24.840 --> 2:19:27.440 then fix them. See I like people I can talk 2:19:27.440 --> 2:19:29.960 to like that, like fucking fix it. Then so with 2:19:30.280 --> 2:19:33.119 FN if he's like I don't like them, drums, fucking 2:19:33.240 --> 2:19:36.080 fix it? Has it? It's fixed them fucks. You know 2:19:36.160 --> 2:19:40.120 what I'm saying, But do it, don't just say like it, 2:19:41.200 --> 2:19:43.040 like fix it. And then when your homies go in 2:19:43.120 --> 2:19:45.520 and fix it, that's his fire, like, oh shit, this 2:19:45.520 --> 2:19:47.520 should went up, bro, you know what I mean. So 2:19:47.920 --> 2:19:51.760 the creative process is a beautiful experience. I'm not a 2:19:53.520 --> 2:19:56.760 I'm not God man. We made an image and likeness. 2:19:56.800 --> 2:20:00.520 I am God because whatever God. But and the physical 2:20:00.560 --> 2:20:04.040 sense of the ultimate, the closest creation experiment that I 2:20:04.120 --> 2:20:06.440 can do is whether I'm a painter or I'm a 2:20:06.560 --> 2:20:11.120 builder or whatever, is to create something. And so I 2:20:11.400 --> 2:20:14.680 love being in that. But the other part is I 2:20:14.760 --> 2:20:21.120 do like actually showing off the thing, right because now 2:20:21.160 --> 2:20:23.440 I get to do it to somebody like pause, I 2:20:23.520 --> 2:20:28.160 get to I get to perform something. Well, I'm just saying, 2:20:28.200 --> 2:20:31.160 I get to perform in front of people, and sometimes like, 2:20:31.440 --> 2:20:34.360 there's been many a times where I'm just like, there's 2:20:34.440 --> 2:20:37.960 one person that's fitting my fucking bars to me, and 2:20:38.120 --> 2:20:40.560 I'm like looking at the person, like this motherfucker know 2:20:40.760 --> 2:20:43.360 this shit, like like he wrote it or she wrote it. 2:20:43.400 --> 2:20:48.600 I'm like that energy. It makes me double up, like 2:20:48.760 --> 2:20:51.920 fuck that I'm a really do a great job. Jay 2:20:52.000 --> 2:20:55.199 Zu used to say a thing one or one million. 2:20:55.560 --> 2:20:57.320 The whole point was if you have a show and 2:20:57.840 --> 2:21:00.959 only one person showed up, would you have ass You're 2:21:01.000 --> 2:21:04.240 not supposed to. If only one person showed up to 2:21:04.320 --> 2:21:08.000 your show, they deserve for you to give a one 2:21:08.120 --> 2:21:12.920 hundred percent. If a million people show up, give one 2:21:13.000 --> 2:21:16.560 hundred percent. So I love both, and then I also like, 2:21:16.640 --> 2:21:19.640 I'm not gonna lie. I like money you've made that. 2:21:20.240 --> 2:21:23.280 I like when people show up.

They're British right. One 2:27:34.800 --> 2:27:37.400 of the greatest records I've ever written is called Sabor 2:27:37.480 --> 2:27:40.560 Prayer and I was a little kid watching MTV and 2:27:40.680 --> 2:27:43.840 it took me fifteen years to understand. See, the best 2:27:43.879 --> 2:27:54.680 thing about UH writing before the dumblification of rap is 2:27:54.760 --> 2:27:59.880 that it was dope. Rock was written well because we 2:28:00.120 --> 2:28:03.760 creative rock and these songs and R and B and 2:28:03.959 --> 2:28:06.960 women the woman like people are talking.

It always resonated with me. 2:28:41.600 --> 2:28:43.480 I tried to sample it twice one company. It was 2:28:43.520 --> 2:28:46.840 like never in life. Yeah, They're like I was signing 2:28:46.879 --> 2:28:49.760 a Capito old Parorty record. I'm like, come on, bro, 2:28:50.320 --> 2:28:53.200 It's like, naw, well you need to go after that.

I get the Ran around 2:28:57.680 --> 2:29:03.119 are they Aund's so yeah, yeah, it's like so here, 2:29:03.200 --> 2:29:05.959 I challenge everybody here for this one. There's a song 2:29:06.120 --> 2:29:11.160 that I heard as a kid. Amongst all the amazing 2:29:11.200 --> 2:29:14.320 great records, the Ran Durant had a record called a 2:29:14.440 --> 2:29:16.720 viwtwo to Kill. I like James Vond. I like the nigga. 2:29:16.720 --> 2:29:18.600 It was a cool nigga you kill niggas. He always 2:29:18.640 --> 2:29:22.320 get the bitch. So I liked James Vond. Do I 2:29:22.360 --> 2:29:28.280 see myself in James Bond? No, but in my James 2:29:28.360 --> 2:29:32.680 Bond you God damn right right right now. Dran Durant 2:29:32.680 --> 2:29:36.520 would do the music to a few of them, and 2:29:37.160 --> 2:29:39.480 he had a salt that it's not he, it's them. 2:29:40.840 --> 2:29:41.640 There's a song, but. 2:29:41.680 --> 2:29:45.120 It's hearing of them, not them them. Huh they No, 2:29:45.200 --> 2:29:45.800 it's them. 2:29:46.000 --> 2:29:49.760 They them. But the point was one of the greatest records. 2:29:49.800 --> 2:29:54.080 It took me fifteen years, like to even understand the 2:29:54.280 --> 2:29:57.080 context of the record. And that's what I think. I 2:29:57.160 --> 2:30:00.600 think layers are incredible when I I can listen to 2:30:00.760 --> 2:30:04.560 oldies and hear like, oh shit, I'm old enough to 2:30:04.600 --> 2:30:07.840 really understand what the fuck I was here, Like I 2:30:07.959 --> 2:30:10.800 heard it because it sounded catchy, as opposed to like, 2:30:11.280 --> 2:30:12.280 oh I'm living in this. 2:30:12.640 --> 2:30:14.720 Like I called a rock can bar. 2:30:17.959 --> 2:30:22.640 From the first album like four four years ago, no less, 2:30:23.640 --> 2:30:25.560 and I wish I should have wrote it down. I 2:30:25.680 --> 2:30:28.920 was like, I finally got the bar. I like that 2:30:29.320 --> 2:30:32.080 now if you want, I walked down the street down 2:30:32.240 --> 2:30:37.120 my horn. I killed him yesterday. I shot it's monkey talk. 2:30:37.800 --> 2:30:40.520 Grow the fuck up. I get it that they trained 2:30:40.560 --> 2:30:43.640 you to do that, But I like shit where like 2:30:44.160 --> 2:30:51.000 even even the law's form of energy is more complicated 2:30:52.000 --> 2:30:55.480 than one simple thing. So I like when I like 2:30:55.560 --> 2:31:01.840 when I go back to people's music and get more 2:31:01.879 --> 2:31:05.680 informed or you know, or get growth. Because I thought 2:31:05.720 --> 2:31:07.720 the point of art, as I look at it on 2:31:07.840 --> 2:31:11.320 this wall, as I see it amongst me, is to 2:31:11.600 --> 2:31:14.480 learn from it and to grow from it. If it's 2:31:14.800 --> 2:31:18.959 just a thing, then you're a cheeseburger from McDonald's I'm 2:31:19.000 --> 2:31:23.080 not no fucking cheeseburger. We are exquisite art. We do 2:31:23.200 --> 2:31:26.000 exquisite shit. The fact that you can move from what 2:31:26.160 --> 2:31:29.959 you did, you know what I'm saying. As a queen's nigga, 2:31:30.440 --> 2:31:34.439 you know what I'm saying, and really go from CNN 2:31:35.440 --> 2:31:38.920 to go into you know what I'm saying. I do 2:31:39.040 --> 2:31:41.680 have a joke about, but no to move into your 2:31:41.720 --> 2:31:43.879 culture and even do reggaeton, you know what I'm saying, 2:31:44.080 --> 2:31:46.000 have growth to build.

Don't never be relegated. 2:31:51.520 --> 2:31:53.760 And I'm kind of in it. I'm in that. I'm 2:31:53.800 --> 2:31:57.640 in my love zone about the art, like fuck it 2:31:57.720 --> 2:31:59.760 because at the end of the day, when we go, 2:32:00.160 --> 2:32:03.600 all we gonna leave is this I mean, So I'm 2:32:03.640 --> 2:32:05.440 gonna leave excellence if I can't. 2:32:06.840 --> 2:32:08.480 What's your stance on ghost riding. 2:32:10.200 --> 2:32:14.080 Here's my stance on that. To different sports. So water 2:32:14.200 --> 2:32:15.560 polo is not regular polo. 2:32:19.720 --> 2:32:24.040 Lets say it again, A water polo is not regular 2:32:25.400 --> 2:32:26.000 on the horse. 2:32:25.840 --> 2:32:32.720 And they hit right. I think it's more difficult water polo. 2:32:32.840 --> 2:32:35.240 It doesn't matter. So I'm just gonna tell you different 2:32:35.280 --> 2:32:38.199 skill set. So he asked me a question about ghost writing. 2:32:39.000 --> 2:32:43.120 So a man named three people, because then you can 2:32:43.240 --> 2:32:58.320 use it. Kanye West, Doctor Dre my name for allegedly others, 2:33:00.240 --> 2:33:06.360 I said, Kanye West, I said, so did he? So did? 2:33:06.400 --> 2:33:08.800 He said, don't matter if I write rhymes, I write checks. 2:33:08.959 --> 2:33:12.600 Doctor Dre has never said all the best lyricists. I 2:33:12.760 --> 2:33:17.040 respect him. Different sport. He's a producer, right, But don't 2:33:17.120 --> 2:33:22.600 act like you play my sport, right, don't. You don't 2:33:22.720 --> 2:33:25.680 come in with niggas helping you write four or five 2:33:25.760 --> 2:33:30.800 of your bars, seven or ten. At what point when 2:33:31.080 --> 2:33:34.280 it does it become them and not you? Hooks and 2:33:34.360 --> 2:33:36.960 production are one thing. If you don't play my sport, 2:33:37.680 --> 2:33:42.840 fuck out of here. I play a sport it's called bars. 2:33:44.640 --> 2:33:47.760 The rest of y'all playing a game called convincing bitches 2:33:47.840 --> 2:33:52.040 and white people that you're popular. You can't beat me 2:33:52.200 --> 2:33:54.840 at what I do, and I don't give a fuck 2:33:54.840 --> 2:33:57.000 if you got a group. So the bottom line is 2:33:57.440 --> 2:34:01.000 we should just call a thing called seventy four years. 2:34:01.720 --> 2:34:04.840 No Internet, none of your hype people, none of your 2:34:04.920 --> 2:34:05.680 help writers. 2:34:06.160 --> 2:34:07.680 I will air your niggas out. 2:34:08.000 --> 2:34:10.560 I'll air your favorites, because if you over here with 2:34:10.760 --> 2:34:14.120 niggas helping you, throwing you bars and whatever. You can 2:34:14.200 --> 2:34:16.360 help with a hook, you can help with production, you 2:34:16.480 --> 2:34:20.560 cannot help me with me expressing myself. Period. No, right now, 2:34:21.040 --> 2:34:24.160 motherfuckers is using chat GPT. That my next question. 2:34:24.400 --> 2:34:27.560 While confidently I've seen people I'm not gonna name no names, 2:34:27.840 --> 2:34:30.760 but they're comfortently saying Chad GVT is helping. 2:34:31.280 --> 2:34:37.439 Well again again, every tool rhyme again, every. 2:34:37.400 --> 2:34:40.440 Tool is a tool. You're just not playing my sport. 2:34:41.760 --> 2:34:44.200 Whatever that sport is called it something else that's not 2:34:44.400 --> 2:34:48.560 water polo, that's called the salad polo, cyberpolo. Right, you 2:34:48.640 --> 2:34:50.640 can do whatever you want to do, just don't act 2:34:50.680 --> 2:34:54.040 like you mean. But Kenky said, they not like they 2:34:54.200 --> 2:34:56.920 not like us, You not like me. If you don't 2:34:56.920 --> 2:35:02.800 write your ship, you beat it. My nigga, what what 2:35:03.000 --> 2:35:07.160 game we plan? You not capable of depth of character? 2:35:07.280 --> 2:35:09.600 You don't know how to express yourself. You need other 2:35:09.680 --> 2:35:13.800 people to help. You say you need a therapist. I 2:35:13.920 --> 2:35:18.200 gave an analogy a long time. Well, but basically that's 2:35:18.240 --> 2:35:20.879 what they are. They're your therapist. Here, here's my analogy. 2:35:21.920 --> 2:35:26.840 Who's your favorite basketball player? Who's your favorite football player. 2:35:29.240 --> 2:35:34.440 You don't give a okay, Jesus Chris, So John Alway 2:35:36.160 --> 2:35:42.280 is definitely you even know. 2:35:43.440 --> 2:35:44.640 That's what I actually cared about. 2:35:45.640 --> 2:35:50.480 Okay, So if you started watching the playbacks of John Alway, 2:35:51.560 --> 2:35:54.080 he was a quarterback right right, So if you saw 2:35:54.240 --> 2:35:57.240 l Way he was doing, you freeze frame it right 2:35:58.400 --> 2:36:00.680 and this is going to get racist, but it's hilarious. 2:36:02.879 --> 2:36:06.760 Why oh you know, why do you know me? So 2:36:07.360 --> 2:36:13.039 nor watching these? A little Mexican cross out always hands 2:36:13.280 --> 2:36:17.520 and he really throws it. A little Mexican, a little 2:36:17.560 --> 2:36:19.480 Mexican guy. Because I'm from l A and I always 2:36:19.840 --> 2:36:22.600 those are my brothers. So so if you saw a 2:36:22.840 --> 2:36:26.879 miniature little nigga, come on, he's happening to be nextan 2:36:27.040 --> 2:36:30.240 in my analogy because I'm from la so I think 2:36:30.280 --> 2:36:34.280 it's Lway, but it's not really, not really, it's a 2:36:34.320 --> 2:36:40.720 little nigga that comes out a little bit in my analogy, 2:36:40.840 --> 2:36:45.039 happens to be Nan. He comes out bomb. I want 2:36:45.280 --> 2:36:46.160 I want Alway. 2:36:46.520 --> 2:36:47.520 I don't want Alway. 2:36:47.920 --> 2:36:51.120 I want El Pedro. I want the little nature. I 2:36:51.240 --> 2:36:54.320 want the little nigga that through the bomb. But I 2:36:54.600 --> 2:36:55.360 like that guy. 2:36:56.360 --> 2:36:58.520 I don't want the little nigga that did this ship 2:36:58.760 --> 2:37:01.320 because you're the big guy doing it. 2:37:01.640 --> 2:37:04.519 They need each other. No, fuck you, because. 2:37:09.600 --> 2:37:13.760 I like the real one you can. I never went 2:37:13.800 --> 2:37:17.160 to McDonald's expecting Ronald McDonald to come out and make 2:37:17.200 --> 2:37:21.000 my hamburgers and take my order, right, But for real, 2:37:21.240 --> 2:37:24.320 I did expect it's call wrap and you can't write them. 2:37:24.520 --> 2:37:25.520 You're not like me. 2:37:25.840 --> 2:37:28.080 I don't want you around here. Give me the nigga 2:37:28.120 --> 2:37:33.960 that's doing it in R and B because they do 2:37:34.080 --> 2:37:37.760 a lot of hard work. They and they dance, they 2:37:37.920 --> 2:37:40.640 sing and they dance. Nigga rappers. We don't have a 2:37:40.840 --> 2:37:43.400 hard job.

It's crazy. Think about it though, you guys, 2:48:09.800 --> 2:48:11.959 think about the nips and the pox and the big 2:48:12.040 --> 2:48:14.680 age and like just not even to be able to 2:48:14.760 --> 2:48:18.520 celebrate ten years of the journey and still legacies that 2:48:18.600 --> 2:48:21.000 affect us. So for me, I always just kind of 2:48:21.040 --> 2:48:28.120 find it like I'm grateful to be here. I'm not 2:48:28.400 --> 2:48:31.280 comparing like oh I need what so and so God, 2:48:32.640 --> 2:48:35.959 but like nips like you know, for Nipsey or big 2:48:36.080 --> 2:48:37.680 you know what I'm saying, not even to be able 2:48:37.720 --> 2:48:41.640 to enjoy like m your your kid turning. 2:48:41.840 --> 2:48:45.439 So life is precious, like no functions. 2:48:45.560 --> 2:48:48.200 So if you had a chance to do over, you 2:48:48.200 --> 2:48:53.240 would say, now, I wouldn't do it. Well none. 2:48:53.959 --> 2:48:56.760 I'm with everything I said when I said fu so 2:48:56.800 --> 2:48:59.000 and so, whatever I said, I meant it at the time. 2:48:59.520 --> 2:49:02.360 I ain't got no regrets, no regrets. You ever seen 2:49:02.400 --> 2:49:08.920 the tattoos regirts right right, Yeah, I'm totally okay with Like, 2:49:09.800 --> 2:49:12.680 even if I feel differently now, at least I felt 2:49:12.720 --> 2:49:15.640 how I felt at least because these are time capsules 2:49:15.720 --> 2:49:19.680 about how I felt at the time. Absolutely so. Maybe 2:49:19.720 --> 2:49:21.840 I was mad at my mom, maybe I was sad 2:49:21.879 --> 2:49:25.520 about this or whatever. These are time capsules. That's what 2:49:26.000 --> 2:49:31.080 art is. These people, everything that we do, every monument, 2:49:31.440 --> 2:49:34.200 even us as fucking children, think about this from a 2:49:34.240 --> 2:49:39.680 philosophical standpoint, we are the culmination of everybody before us. 2:49:40.400 --> 2:49:45.680 Wild I'm talking about before however long you think people 2:49:45.760 --> 2:49:46.439 were made. 2:49:46.920 --> 2:49:48.360 That survived for you to be here. 2:49:48.520 --> 2:49:53.080 Right, we are just here and now we're parents that 2:49:53.200 --> 2:49:57.760 we're creating art and whatever were. 2:49:56.680 --> 2:49:59.879 Like fuck sees or fuck this or like Nike. 2:50:00.760 --> 2:50:02.560 I mean, it's a beautiful journey. 2:50:02.640 --> 2:50:05.720 Man. I'm trying to embrace the grind. I'm trying to 2:50:05.720 --> 2:50:08.960 embrace the journey and enjoy my life while trying to 2:50:09.040 --> 2:50:12.600 at least do a good job while I'm here. You 2:50:12.680 --> 2:50:15.040 know what I mean. That's the I would hope that's 2:50:15.400 --> 2:50:18.800 the most important thing is like, enjoy it, live it, 2:50:19.160 --> 2:50:22.760 love it, and capitalize off of it. 2:50:23.040 --> 2:50:26.400 I'm on big bread, but big. 2:50:26.320 --> 2:50:31.920 Fun I do. My mom, my mom before she passed 2:50:35.360 --> 2:50:40.680 a long time ago. She fucked me up. And I'm 2:50:40.680 --> 2:50:44.200 gonna share something personal. So my mother only just died 2:50:44.240 --> 2:50:48.440 about then seven months ago. I got four sisters. I 2:50:48.560 --> 2:50:51.640 got four sisters, thank you, thanks for the condolences, but 2:50:51.760 --> 2:50:57.840 that's not my issue. I got four sisters, three older, 2:50:58.000 --> 2:51:01.640 one younger. So what makes me tick has never been 2:51:02.240 --> 2:51:05.000 and I'm a creole. My mom from Louisiana, My daddy's 2:51:05.040 --> 2:51:07.400 mark saf So I'm just clarified what the fuck I am. 2:51:08.040 --> 2:51:10.840 Ain't no nigga ever gonna change me anyway, because even 2:51:10.920 --> 2:51:13.680 when I was born in LA, I used to be 2:51:13.760 --> 2:51:17.480 the darkest kid in my family. You are Latino, I'm 2:51:17.520 --> 2:51:21.360 a creole, French blood whatever. So I've always had a journey. 2:51:21.360 --> 2:51:24.680 I wrote about it on my first album, You're not 2:51:24.760 --> 2:51:28.959 Gonna Force Me to do shit. Always felt very strongly 2:51:29.080 --> 2:51:31.519 and had a strong protective family about. 2:51:32.920 --> 2:51:33.200 Self. 2:51:34.760 --> 2:51:37.120 I made many mistakes, but my family allowed me to 2:51:37.160 --> 2:51:39.879 make mistakes, and my homeboys did also helped me too. 2:51:40.280 --> 2:51:42.240 But I think one of the things is part of 2:51:42.320 --> 2:51:45.119 this journey is the love part. I grow Catholic as fuck. 2:51:45.600 --> 2:51:48.560 I know my seventh Sacraments. I grew up with whatever 2:51:48.720 --> 2:51:51.760 like even in La like you ask to be all 2:51:51.800 --> 2:51:53.920 crip shit, I'm telling you, it was much harder to 2:51:53.959 --> 2:51:59.040 even identify with blacks culturally because I identified with Latinos. 2:52:00.640 --> 2:52:06.640 I mean, who's poor and Catholic in La? So I 2:52:06.760 --> 2:52:10.560 always feel like the bigger point is to express yourself, 2:52:11.160 --> 2:52:15.640 and I'm grateful to have an opportunity, at fifty years old, 2:52:17.240 --> 2:52:23.440 to be able to express myself and be honest and 2:52:23.640 --> 2:52:30.400 hopefully not bitter and jaded and inform people about because 2:52:30.959 --> 2:52:34.920 I didn't listen to my father, or I listened. 2:52:34.680 --> 2:52:38.520 To my mother because she's a tyrant. She was a tyrant. 2:52:38.560 --> 2:52:42.360 She was awesome. But you know that we do better, 2:52:43.000 --> 2:52:44.960 like I want to be able to be in a 2:52:45.040 --> 2:52:49.360 place where I can give people game, gain people up. 2:52:49.520 --> 2:52:52.000 Make sure you know what I'm saying. We're protecting what's 2:52:52.080 --> 2:52:55.400 most important, which is all our civilizations, all our people. 2:52:57.640 --> 2:53:01.039 How do we build bigger businesses? And I really don't 2:53:01.320 --> 2:53:05.600 even think that we should even start celebrating people that 2:53:05.760 --> 2:53:10.440 have been celebrities, because they don't deserve to be celebrated anymore. 2:53:10.760 --> 2:53:13.400 I think after two hundred million, if you ain't helping nobody, 2:53:13.440 --> 2:53:14.920 then we shouldn't talk about you no more. 2:53:16.760 --> 2:53:17.879 If you make two hundred. 2:53:17.640 --> 2:53:20.080 Million dollars and you ain't out here really doing the 2:53:20.120 --> 2:53:24.960 people's work, you beat the monopoly board, you're going to 2:53:25.000 --> 2:53:27.920 fold yours up, and then we're just not going to 2:53:28.000 --> 2:53:30.400 give you nothing. We'll find somebody else, find somebody to help. 2:53:30.760 --> 2:53:34.440 I think we need to start bringing our energy differently. 2:53:34.560 --> 2:53:37.280 I don't have to shit on nobody for me to 2:53:37.320 --> 2:53:41.680 feel better. I don't think that are like people are 2:53:41.800 --> 2:53:45.680 all like algorithms. Niggas act like the algorithm is like 2:53:47.480 --> 2:53:50.920 I don't know. Niggas. No, No, Niggas act like the 2:53:51.000 --> 2:53:57.760 algorithm is like science, like pie. They were like, you 2:53:57.840 --> 2:54:02.279 know what I'm saying, Like certain degrees, you freezer a nigga, 2:54:02.400 --> 2:54:05.160 make it and guess what nigga he looked like, not 2:54:05.440 --> 2:54:10.360 like you. Eli must changed and called it something different. 2:54:10.840 --> 2:54:14.720 Twitter became ex and nigger and beaner became a word. 2:54:16.080 --> 2:54:16.800 Way more often. 2:54:17.240 --> 2:54:21.920 Stop bowing to white people's ideas because you are going 2:54:22.000 --> 2:54:27.480 to lose that game. Stop Latinos. You're not gonna like 2:54:27.560 --> 2:54:29.959 this what I'm gonna say it. Stop thinking your Spanish 2:54:30.200 --> 2:54:35.359 Spain don't like you we do. Stop bowing to America. 2:54:35.720 --> 2:54:39.720 America has told you you're not welcome here, except here's 2:54:39.760 --> 2:54:40.160 the truth. 2:54:40.440 --> 2:54:41.240 It's our land. 2:54:41.879 --> 2:54:43.879 We got to start learning how to love each other 2:54:44.360 --> 2:54:48.200 and stop letting these constructs change us from being the 2:54:48.280 --> 2:54:51.600 best people we can. And that's really one of my 2:54:51.680 --> 2:54:54.720 bigger points about even this album and everything I've ever 2:54:54.800 --> 2:54:55.280 tried to make. 2:54:55.879 --> 2:54:57.720 You could take my money, but you couldn't take who 2:54:57.760 --> 2:54:58.040 I was. 2:54:59.120 --> 2:55:02.000 You could take being important, but I bar your favorite 2:55:02.040 --> 2:55:05.480 nigga out you can't have he can't beat me rapping. 2:55:05.840 --> 2:55:09.960 You can make it more important than me. I got 2:55:10.040 --> 2:55:12.199 a good face, I'll take it. I'll take this bitch. 2:55:13.160 --> 2:55:16.600 I do so I'm on that. I want us to 2:55:16.840 --> 2:55:21.440 like get back to for the culture for business. We 2:55:21.680 --> 2:55:24.480 can own our own businesses. And I think that's kind 2:55:24.520 --> 2:55:27.360 of part of the reason why I've always stuck to 2:55:27.440 --> 2:55:30.920 my guns is because I came from a good family 2:55:31.520 --> 2:55:35.680 that supported the collectives. Because if it's just about you, 2:55:36.040 --> 2:55:39.640 then think about it, you become the person that. 2:55:41.320 --> 2:55:42.240 Only thinks about you. 2:55:43.400 --> 2:55:46.400 Think about it, think about your billionaires, and a nigga 2:55:46.600 --> 2:55:49.240 be crying like nobody like, are you kidding me? You 2:55:49.280 --> 2:55:54.000 gotta beat it? Well, I mean they expect that from them. 2:55:54.080 --> 2:55:58.080 I know our own kind that's sitting fucking ivory towers 2:55:58.200 --> 2:56:00.880 all over and be like think like, I'm like, are 2:56:00.920 --> 2:56:03.120 you kidding me? I've had to talk to people. Have 2:56:03.200 --> 2:56:05.920 you ever talked to somebody that was so rich? But 2:56:06.080 --> 2:56:09.879 they're acting like I'm not Like I'm like, my dude, 2:56:10.360 --> 2:56:13.280 a girl, do you know how much money you have? 2:56:14.320 --> 2:56:20.560 Like you're sitting in a fucking hundred and twenty thousand 2:56:20.879 --> 2:56:24.880 dollars a night whatever, Like you're fuck I've met Have 2:56:24.959 --> 2:56:25.840 you ever met a princess? 2:56:26.240 --> 2:56:26.280 You? 2:56:26.440 --> 2:56:30.280 Have you met a princess? Have you ever met a 2:56:30.320 --> 2:56:34.160 real princess? Like a real like, oh god, I met you. 2:56:34.920 --> 2:56:38.640 They have their many different countries. Have you never met 2:56:38.680 --> 2:56:41.640 a person in a prince let alone? Have you ever 2:56:42.040 --> 2:56:45.360 knocked the one? But the point is, yeah, it's people. 2:56:45.959 --> 2:56:50.440 Everything's in somebody's mind. They're the victim. But sometimes it's like, bro, 2:56:50.560 --> 2:56:54.040 are you kidding me? Like you're super up? You ain't 2:56:54.080 --> 2:56:55.960 never had a homeboy that's super rich and he's just 2:56:56.080 --> 2:56:58.760 like everybody's gut me. I'm like, bitch, what are you 2:56:58.920 --> 2:57:04.880 talking about? You got the nigga? You're filthy? And so 2:57:05.400 --> 2:57:09.600 I think, to be honest, we talk the audience wants 2:57:09.680 --> 2:57:15.600 to be. People want to feel people want That's why 2:57:15.680 --> 2:57:19.280 people watch it because they want to either talk shit 2:57:19.320 --> 2:57:22.880 about people that they look up to. I just think 2:57:23.760 --> 2:57:28.440 ultimately the end game about art is to express and 2:57:28.560 --> 2:57:31.480 share who we are, because those are gonna be like 2:57:31.920 --> 2:57:35.200 I don't even think drink Champ again in season.

I can only say 3:01:44.959 --> 3:01:52.480 that I remember, I hope this lands well. My first 3:01:52.520 --> 3:01:54.640 album was solo Nights. I wrote to me. By this 3:01:54.800 --> 3:01:59.520 album the second one I started writing to them. I've 3:01:59.640 --> 3:02:03.320 written because it's this therapy for me. So I hope 3:02:03.840 --> 3:02:07.840 the culmination of anybody's journey is that you're explaining yourself 3:02:08.680 --> 3:02:11.200 in real time that people you love you know what 3:02:11.200 --> 3:02:14.600 I mean, whether it's to my mother or to my sisters, 3:02:14.760 --> 3:02:17.720 or to the love I lost. If I'm like y'all 3:02:17.879 --> 3:02:20.119 fucked up, you know what I'm saying. I went here, 3:02:20.879 --> 3:02:22.280 I made it, left when I should have made a 3:02:22.360 --> 3:02:25.120 right And if that affected you, what I'm trying to say. 3:02:25.480 --> 3:02:28.240 So for me, I write from a truth. I don't 3:02:28.280 --> 3:02:31.400 write from a trying to get a money. Some people 3:02:31.400 --> 3:02:33.320 are writing like, oh, you can get money, and if 3:02:33.360 --> 3:02:34.960 I just say the right thing, I can get a 3:02:35.000 --> 3:02:37.800 lot of money out of people. I never wrote from there. 3:02:37.959 --> 3:02:42.200 I always felt like to be perfectly honest my friends 3:02:42.600 --> 3:02:48.000 and my own horrible nature. I'm gonna land on my feet. 3:02:48.000 --> 3:02:50.840 I'm gonna get some money. I'm gonna get I'm gonna 3:02:50.840 --> 3:02:54.640 take it out of somebody, like the other part of me, 3:02:55.520 --> 3:02:59.119 my negative energy, but my positive energy I've already. I've 3:02:59.200 --> 3:03:03.720 always tried to write from my heart, not from really 3:03:03.800 --> 3:03:08.920 my ego, and not from like bitter. I try to 3:03:08.959 --> 3:03:11.280 write from love and like and trying to write from 3:03:11.320 --> 3:03:14.320 like what am I really experiencing in real time? And 3:03:14.440 --> 3:03:17.039 so for me, you know, with them, I want them 3:03:17.080 --> 3:03:19.360 to have their journey. I'm still in my journey, so 3:03:19.560 --> 3:03:21.320 they can write there as I'm writing in mind their 3:03:21.400 --> 3:03:26.000 mom that's her journey and what's behind closed doors with 3:03:26.720 --> 3:03:29.000 uh be and my sisters, and you know what I mean. 3:03:29.360 --> 3:03:34.600 But she's an incredible artist.

I'm gonna bring you off. I'm gonna move 3:08:03.360 --> 3:08:08.640 this needley. A lot of LA slang is base slang. 3:08:08.800 --> 3:08:11.360 A lot of the production of the South of Atlanta 3:08:11.920 --> 3:08:15.880 because too short, and he forty wins.

Most people don't argue that 3:08:32.120 --> 3:08:36.680 at this point, certain vibes got caught. So all the 3:08:36.920 --> 3:08:42.640 Atlanta vibes, the La vibes come from the bank, and 3:08:42.720 --> 3:08:49.400 we should give them that credit. I think motherfucker's trying 3:08:49.440 --> 3:08:52.800 to remake shit is whack. I remember when jay Z 3:08:53.000 --> 3:08:54.960 was wearing white T shirts in New York and then 3:08:55.160 --> 3:08:57.680 there was like hat to the side and white T 3:08:57.840 --> 3:09:01.440 shirt and New Yorker is like and we're arguing, like, bitch, 3:09:02.720 --> 3:09:04.840 you did not wear white T shirts. Because when I 3:09:05.040 --> 3:09:07.320 was in New York and like white T shirt, I 3:09:07.440 --> 3:09:10.600 remember I had a Rolex.

You know what I mean, 3:09:36.760 --> 3:09:41.560 when your kid when you're eighteen, upperly mobile McDonald's, mc donald's, 3:09:41.959 --> 3:09:45.200 Times Square, McDonald's. 3:09:46.680 --> 3:09:47.520 Girl, mcals. 3:09:48.400 --> 3:09:53.520 So in nineteen ninety five and six, and seven when 3:09:53.560 --> 3:09:59.040 you're not old, okay, that's teenager and you. But the 3:09:59.120 --> 3:10:03.160 girls would be like. I remember one girl like she's like, 3:10:03.400 --> 3:10:08.040 why are you wearing your undershirt? Y'all in New York 3:10:08.200 --> 3:10:13.039 And we just yelled. He's like, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch. 3:10:12.959 --> 3:10:16.000 This ain't no undershirt. We were angry. 3:10:16.400 --> 3:10:18.800 We're like, what do you mean is this was? This 3:10:19.040 --> 3:10:24.959 was our suit uniform? Yeah, this is a uniform. She said, 3:10:25.000 --> 3:10:27.920 why you no disrespect? Why are you wearing your uh 3:10:29.000 --> 3:10:31.760 this shirt? So like for for that to go from 3:10:31.920 --> 3:10:36.800 undershirts to jay Z making it like it's our uniform, 3:10:37.040 --> 3:10:41.200 it was like, that's not no. We wore white T 3:10:41.360 --> 3:10:44.920 shirts two pro clubs in l A just before cash 3:10:45.000 --> 3:10:48.280 Money was doing it. Stop it while behind No, let's 3:10:48.320 --> 3:10:51.080 just be hip hop. LA created the white tea. Knock 3:10:51.160 --> 3:10:56.560 it off you you guys created the black team who 3:10:57.520 --> 3:11:01.480 but Who's he? We Atlanta the South? But the tea 3:11:02.320 --> 3:11:06.440 as a fit is an l A thing. But I 3:11:06.520 --> 3:11:10.640 think made it really big. Stop behind I actually think 3:11:10.680 --> 3:11:13.520 so you stop behind the white team. Jay Z with 3:11:13.720 --> 3:11:15.800 it to the tilty Brown. 3:11:16.160 --> 3:11:18.080 Was a jay Z I remember. 3:11:18.120 --> 3:11:20.360 I remember that's when we go to l A. 3:11:20.440 --> 3:11:23.680 Don't wear white white tea, right, But I thought. 3:11:23.560 --> 3:11:25.320 The white tea was the dope boy thing. That that 3:11:25.480 --> 3:11:29.440 was the dope boys. It's an l a uniform. We 3:11:29.600 --> 3:11:33.240 were taught to wear that. That's how girls liked you. 3:11:33.680 --> 3:11:36.160 You were white tea. If you got your money up, 3:11:36.240 --> 3:11:39.959 you got too. You wore too, you would wear too. 3:11:40.600 --> 3:11:43.480 It's weird. Okay, you left early? 3:11:45.720 --> 3:11:46.680 When did you leave? Sir? 3:11:48.120 --> 3:11:51.120 Back and forth when you really felt, Like. 3:11:53.840 --> 3:11:56.920 When I became Miami officially, I was like nine years old, 3:11:58.680 --> 3:11:59.680 so I got dog ears. 3:11:59.720 --> 3:12:06.160 So my dog ears are La and New York. Like 3:12:06.320 --> 3:12:09.200 when I like I had we had a cousin. Yeah, 3:12:09.200 --> 3:12:12.720 I had a cousin then Harlem, so the dog years. 3:12:12.800 --> 3:12:16.680 But I'm telling you, La ship white teas too. Look 3:12:16.720 --> 3:12:18.879 at the Mexican. Look at the look at the process. 3:12:19.320 --> 3:12:20.840 You don't need the cai. You know what. 3:12:21.200 --> 3:12:24.560 The when you say Mexican, that makes more sense for me. 3:12:24.760 --> 3:12:28.119 You know what, We're all the main the white teas. 3:12:28.000 --> 3:12:31.760 All the same animals. You don't know the khakis, so 3:12:31.840 --> 3:12:36.480 the khakis they were white with the khakis. But yeah, 3:12:36.520 --> 3:12:39.320 but you're missing a point. If you had money, you 3:12:39.400 --> 3:12:43.280 could wear Levi's. If you have a lot of money, 3:12:43.640 --> 3:12:50.960 with gas. So that was khakis is broke. That's the 3:12:51.120 --> 3:12:54.560 uniform when you broke Levi's a little bit of money 3:12:54.680 --> 3:12:58.240 now thirty five ninety nine dean gas. 3:13:00.120 --> 3:13:01.840 So what case is going to guess? 3:13:02.920 --> 3:13:05.720 I'm like, I thought, I thought you said, uh, in 3:13:05.840 --> 3:13:06.879 my mind you said the gap. 3:13:07.120 --> 3:13:10.039 But guess you're right. I guess was the joint right. 3:13:10.320 --> 3:13:13.440 So that's all the process of the process. I didn't 3:13:13.520 --> 3:13:16.080 create the process. I didn't create the culture. I'm just 3:13:16.160 --> 3:13:19.280 telling trying to tell you the truth of it. So, yeah, 3:13:19.440 --> 3:13:23.840 khakis is what you would wear putting in work. Khakis 3:13:24.040 --> 3:13:27.920 is I'm selling dope. Right, So I would see my 3:13:28.040 --> 3:13:30.240 friends and they have a jelly stain over here. 3:13:31.240 --> 3:13:37.760 And because you shouldn't know, yeh man. 3:13:37.800 --> 3:13:40.640 I don't know what a right. So I'm putting this out. 3:13:40.760 --> 3:13:50.480 I'm pointing this camera. No, wow, who would you know? 3:13:50.760 --> 3:13:51.680 I'm talking about this guy? 3:13:53.080 --> 3:13:54.520 And you got me here. 3:13:55.959 --> 3:13:57.760 Want to trump drum? 3:13:58.480 --> 3:14:00.800 So look, so the woo wind was. 3:14:03.080 --> 3:14:03.400 All right. 3:14:03.440 --> 3:14:07.960 If your friend, if you're twelve, if you're thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, 3:14:08.320 --> 3:14:11.280 your friend stepped in, he's selling dope. You go see 3:14:11.320 --> 3:14:13.160 your friend. He got on the same outfit. It's the 3:14:13.240 --> 3:14:16.880 khaki suit, but his white T shirt got stains like 3:14:16.959 --> 3:14:20.040 a nigga then eight like niggas would sleep in the bush, 3:14:21.160 --> 3:14:28.280 just like a queen's nigga. But yes, he being outside. 3:14:29.040 --> 3:14:32.000 Literally you're scaring getting his brand up. 3:14:32.400 --> 3:14:34.199 So that would be the thing. So you I would 3:14:34.240 --> 3:14:36.440 go see my friends. But on the white tea, it 3:14:36.520 --> 3:14:40.080 gets to tell all your stuff be like, bro, you 3:14:40.160 --> 3:14:43.080 got coffee sting, got little bloodstain, Like what the fuck 3:14:43.160 --> 3:14:45.879 are you doing? So that's what would happen. That's why 3:14:45.959 --> 3:14:48.280 the white tea. The black tea is a better idea. 3:14:48.400 --> 3:14:51.200 But in LA, that was the culture. I didn't invent ale. 3:14:51.480 --> 3:14:52.359 He's more practical. 3:14:52.879 --> 3:14:55.680 I think you guys are smarter for but that has 3:14:55.760 --> 3:14:57.200 nothing to do with the price of rights and chin. 3:14:58.640 --> 3:15:00.640 I don't know, he said, Miami, maybe, I think so. 3:15:01.240 --> 3:15:02.520 I think Atlanta did it. 3:15:02.640 --> 3:15:04.920 I think Atlanta did too. Let me tell you something 3:15:04.920 --> 3:15:05.320 real quick. 3:15:05.360 --> 3:15:08.640 As a as a LA transplant to Miami, one of 3:15:08.680 --> 3:15:11.760 the most protestings that I found out was that two. 3:15:11.680 --> 3:15:13.040 Light Crew was born in l A. 3:15:13.600 --> 3:15:15.360 I didn't know that.

So there's a movie 3:17:21.760 --> 3:17:25.680 called The Substitute, right, remember what's the what's the other 3:17:25.720 --> 3:17:27.720 movie that came out the l A one, Well was 3:17:28.040 --> 3:17:29.640 Edward James almost. 3:17:29.280 --> 3:17:35.760 So American, remember yeah, yeah, but American meat is way no, no, 3:17:35.959 --> 3:17:38.360 but that's not that's not but that's not a high 3:17:38.360 --> 3:17:39.840 school movie, though stand. 3:17:39.680 --> 3:17:42.680 Delivery was remember the high school movie? It was The Teacher, Right. 3:17:43.000 --> 3:17:47.760 So another movie came out called, uh, the Substitute, which 3:17:48.160 --> 3:17:52.440 happened in Miami though Carl Gables High Actually okay, I 3:17:52.480 --> 3:17:53.880 don't know if it was based on true story, but 3:17:53.959 --> 3:17:58.120 they filmed it in Miami. Actually no, so it was 3:17:58.240 --> 3:18:01.360 like the other movie with Edward j and then he 3:18:01.560 --> 3:18:04.400 made and then Lean On Me as well in the 3:18:04.440 --> 3:18:04.920 same vein. 3:18:05.160 --> 3:18:07.800 But you know, what I mean, the lead single. 3:18:08.720 --> 3:18:11.320 So he made the lead single Miami Life off of 3:18:11.400 --> 3:18:15.000 that soundtrack of a movie that's based on Miami. 3:18:15.680 --> 3:18:17.160 So can I land? 3:18:17.240 --> 3:18:18.440 So you wasting? 3:18:18.520 --> 3:18:24.039 That was wrapping, was rapping like me people. 3:18:25.200 --> 3:18:31.959 At that that part. That no. So my biggest argument 3:18:32.160 --> 3:18:36.800 about soundtracks was even if you not from the place, 3:18:38.160 --> 3:18:40.800 make it sound like you know what I mean, so 3:18:40.959 --> 3:18:44.680 I'll you know when you ain't nobody and you're just 3:18:44.760 --> 3:18:47.040 trying to get on.

That was my whole thing. 3:20:20.080 --> 3:20:23.000 And so when when I got opportunity, the first one 3:20:23.040 --> 3:20:24.800 I got was the street Fighter soundtrack. 3:20:25.320 --> 3:20:25.959 Street Fighter. 3:20:26.480 --> 3:20:29.119 Yeah, the street Fighter soundtrack, the original street Fighter sound 3:20:29.200 --> 3:20:32.560 He was on my joint.

I'm like, but it's 3:20:52.040 --> 3:20:55.320 in Miami, and I'm like, i've been there, I'm not 3:20:55.480 --> 3:20:59.960 from there, but let me start learning. Like, I don't 3:21:00.080 --> 3:21:02.400 want to write some ship and be talking about some 3:21:02.520 --> 3:21:04.760 ship and talking about the street that don't make another 3:21:04.959 --> 3:21:07.760 sense to a street. I just want to like because 3:21:07.800 --> 3:21:11.080 if nothing else honored the place. You know what I'm saying. 3:21:11.160 --> 3:21:14.080 If this movie is about being in Miami, being in 3:21:14.240 --> 3:21:16.400 high school or I just came out of high school, 3:21:16.760 --> 3:21:19.680 I need to understand the best I can about Miami, 3:21:19.840 --> 3:21:21.680 the best I can, you know what I'm saying in 3:21:21.800 --> 3:21:25.800 my small experiences, but honor the movie.

They basically react differently than all lines 3:28:30.480 --> 3:28:34.840 have ever reacted because basically, what happens in most mammals, 3:28:35.200 --> 3:28:38.320 which even in the world we live in, and informs 3:28:38.360 --> 3:28:42.480 the thought of my head. So what happens with most 3:28:43.280 --> 3:28:48.400 I'm telling you squirrels, moose, mammals way deeper than this. 3:28:48.560 --> 3:28:54.360 I'm a smart nigga. Never get it fucked up smart. No, 3:28:54.520 --> 3:28:58.840 it's not weird, so so bar real quick. So most animals, 3:29:00.480 --> 3:29:11.360 if if there animals, most mammals.

The point of the lines 3:29:39.400 --> 3:29:42.920 is that they behave differently. So I made a song 3:29:43.040 --> 3:29:47.480 out out of it, and then I couldn't finish it. 3:29:50.040 --> 3:29:56.640 The Eventually, uh Tupac's brother hits me and it's like, 3:29:57.240 --> 3:30:00.920 I heard this record you made, because it's the story 3:30:01.000 --> 3:30:04.959 is about six brothers.

Oh you didn't know? No niggas come out 3:31:20.240 --> 3:31:24.080 to doom Doom doom, who cares. I mean, I'm like 3:31:24.200 --> 3:31:26.840 telling him, I said thanks.

That was in DC, bro, just. 3:31:29.720 --> 3:31:32.040 So you didn't know that was going to be that? 3:31:33.000 --> 3:31:33.600 Of course not. 3:31:34.440 --> 3:31:36.480 I mean, we're all aware of each other. We say 3:31:36.560 --> 3:31:38.440 thank you, so it's not a big deal to me. 3:31:38.600 --> 3:31:41.680 I'm just like, hey, man, that's just tell him.

They were there recording with Da Vinci. Wow, 3:34:39.879 --> 3:34:45.080 so so so the coast contra the contradictory coasts, they 3:34:45.160 --> 3:34:48.440 were there. They were there, they were they were there 3:34:49.000 --> 3:34:54.560 even with real facts or facts. I'm not here to 3:34:54.959 --> 3:35:00.240 try to do magical stories about what then for my 3:35:00.480 --> 3:35:05.360 sons and this journey like Da Vinci, Uh, we were 3:35:05.440 --> 3:35:06.440 working on a record. 3:35:07.040 --> 3:35:09.560 Did you connect with Chip? I'm gonna say this, yeah 3:35:09.600 --> 3:35:12.199 yeah I did. Yeah good, Yeah, yeah, you guys gonna work. 3:35:12.120 --> 3:35:15.240 On those records. Yeah yeah yeah. And his mom and 3:35:16.120 --> 3:35:16.800 come on, man. 3:35:17.000 --> 3:35:19.879 His mom, their family wants his music to be out there. 3:35:20.120 --> 3:35:24.280 His mom and Chip. So Chip will get that done again. 3:35:24.440 --> 3:35:26.320 And I want to just say something really quick. Da 3:35:26.360 --> 3:35:31.600 Vinci worked a lot with with Dyla, with Jay Dilla's family. 3:35:31.800 --> 3:35:35.080 Yeah, and I and so and that we would be 3:35:35.200 --> 3:35:41.080 were missed. So I with with my dudes with tone 3:35:41.320 --> 3:35:44.840 like it's all family. I let them know where I stand. 3:35:45.560 --> 3:35:50.120 And that's what love is, because you know, people trying 3:35:50.160 --> 3:35:52.840 to get in because it's cool to hang out with people. 3:35:52.840 --> 3:35:55.240 It's not the same thing as like loving people. So 3:35:56.640 --> 3:36:02.920 still my brother. I was talking to the Vinci, which 3:36:03.040 --> 3:36:07.199 is you know, provable. I was working on a record. 3:36:07.560 --> 3:36:10.000 I was trying to get him like fix this hook. 3:36:10.360 --> 3:36:12.880 I was like, bro, I ain't got the hook. I 3:36:12.959 --> 3:36:17.720 got a song from five years ago when I was 3:36:17.800 --> 3:36:21.240 in a different space called I Just want to Forget 3:36:21.280 --> 3:36:25.800 It All that he made with his own boy. I'll 3:36:25.800 --> 3:36:28.240 play it for you and I still want to put 3:36:28.280 --> 3:36:32.640 it out. It's crazy, but what I like is the 3:36:32.800 --> 3:36:35.960 love and I want everything going right to where it 3:36:36.000 --> 3:36:38.640 should go. Give it to the family and how we 3:36:38.760 --> 3:36:40.800 build each other, because at the end of the day 3:36:41.120 --> 3:36:44.680 we will end up on the wall. And one thing, 3:36:45.480 --> 3:36:49.680 you can't take it all out and you hope to 3:36:49.840 --> 3:36:51.640 end up on the wall. I don't want to end 3:36:51.720 --> 3:36:53.640 up in the ground. See if you end up in 3:36:53.680 --> 3:36:57.520 the ground with nobody stepping on your fucking bones after 3:36:57.560 --> 3:37:02.240 your families, then what was your blood line about? I 3:37:02.360 --> 3:37:06.160 want to I want in on the wall, not for 3:37:06.320 --> 3:37:10.520 my vanity, for my family's hard work. That's why you 3:37:10.800 --> 3:37:18.120 do this.
