It was just different 1020 00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:22,800 Speaker 1: and they that's what made them, I think, you know, 1021 00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 1: appealed to people because they were singing out like that 1022 00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:28,080 Speaker 1: and they had such an everybody was singing from here, 1023 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:32,279 Speaker 1: you know, and maybe that's why they was getting into 1024 00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:33,920 Speaker 1: it too, because everybody was just like singing from here. 1025 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,600 Speaker 1: Usually somebody didn't singing from there. Somebody softer, somebody's harder, 1026 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:39,080 Speaker 1: somebody was saying me loud, all of them singing from 1027 00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:43,439 Speaker 1: here and that was just like now in that sense, 1028 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 1: you know, even in both were singing like softer and 1029 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,880 Speaker 1: like different in the tones and than escape if you 1030 00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:52,400 Speaker 1: listening escape stuff. Um, so it wasn't it wasn't just louder. 1031 00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:54,759 Speaker 1: It's like really singing from the gut, which makes you 1032 00:54:54,840 --> 00:55:05,000 Speaker 1: think that, right, you got the best goddamn outlook on 1033 00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:10,480 Speaker 1: how Atlanta then changed, Like what's the biggest differences? Oh man, Well, 1034 00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:13,320 Speaker 1: you know what's crazy is like during the late in 1035 00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:15,640 Speaker 1: the early nineties and stuff like we're going to jelly 1036 00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:19,239 Speaker 1: beans and um, you know, it was always it was 1037 00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 1: big dope boys back then, like the Miami Boys was 1038 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 1: here like and so it was always like dope. It's 1039 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 1: always like, you know, it was a little little bit crazy. 1040 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,839 Speaker 1: It was always killings and stuff. And then we saw 1041 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:30,799 Speaker 1: Atlanta go through a phase where music kind of came 1042 00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: in and I think people started to say we could 1043 00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:35,680 Speaker 1: do that, and so all they started to change into 1044 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:39,680 Speaker 1: a whole music focus, like once I did another bad creation, Um, 1045 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:42,880 Speaker 1: then Germaine did Criss Cross, and then the rest of 1046 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,840 Speaker 1: the development came, we started covering these different spectrums like 1047 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 1: of the South. That started making us have our own 1048 00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 1: ship going on. You know what I'm saying, Because we 1049 00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 1: are always like New York accepting us, California accepting us. 1050 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,840 Speaker 1: We gotta make our own ship. Um. And that was 1051 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,839 Speaker 1: the first wave of us starting to get like amalgamation 1052 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:02,920 Speaker 1: because we were put from everybody. We like, Hey Shockley, 1053 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 1: we like Dr tre We we wan't staring to be 1054 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:07,160 Speaker 1: like I like everybody. We want to tell me everybody. 1055 00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:11,600 Speaker 1: So it was it was interesting because you know, we 1056 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:13,000 Speaker 1: didn't really know. We just wanted to get to that. 1057 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:14,879 Speaker 1: We never we just wanted to get to this point 1058 00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 1: at some point, you know. But first it was about 1059 00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:18,280 Speaker 1: riding now listen to that in your car on twenty 1060 00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 1: five or like dressing the act, putting the pictures to it, 1061 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:24,560 Speaker 1: making the music like oh ship, and then we just 1062 00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:26,839 Speaker 1: ride out listening to it. Um. And then when people 1063 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:31,080 Speaker 1: started getting successful, we saw land of change into the 1064 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,160 Speaker 1: record the late the like lawyers started to get wreck, 1065 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,000 Speaker 1: everybody started to get record company because like this ship 1066 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:36,680 Speaker 1: is popping, we need a record company. We need a 1067 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:38,840 Speaker 1: record company. So it opened up the gates for a 1068 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:40,920 Speaker 1: lot of talent to go through also, you know, and 1069 00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:42,920 Speaker 1: then New York in l A. They used to call 1070 00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:44,920 Speaker 1: us like, what do y'all know down there? We don't 1071 00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:47,200 Speaker 1: know what is going on like that, y'all got something 1072 00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:50,759 Speaker 1: crazy going on, like y'all selling record records because other 1073 00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:52,640 Speaker 1: people wasn't selling records like that, like like them in 1074 00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:54,319 Speaker 1: the Mary's and New York Records, they would do their 1075 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:56,799 Speaker 1: platforms and double platinorms. We were doing like nine ten 1076 00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,960 Speaker 1: million records, um ten twelve million records like our first thing. 1077 00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,120 Speaker 1: If a record was coming out, people like, damn man, 1078 00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:04,560 Speaker 1: how are you many even gonna sell the first week 1079 00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:12,359 Speaker 1: five thousand and seven hundred thousand up seven ye ninety 1080 00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:15,000 Speaker 1: two all the way up to to like Napster and 1081 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:18,440 Speaker 1: anything else kicked in because our record range was like 1082 00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:22,240 Speaker 1: distribution back in the day meant that you had trucks 1083 00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 1: and you had the printed from somewhere and the trucks 1084 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:26,440 Speaker 1: had to take it to Walmart to taking the tower 1085 00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:28,760 Speaker 1: or wherever it's going. And if you were in different 1086 00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 1: territories like if you're in London or if you're in 1087 00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:32,960 Speaker 1: wherever you are in around the world. It wasn't like 1088 00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 1: now you can hit a button and it goes everywhere. 1089 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:36,800 Speaker 1: They had to literally print them up over there and 1090 00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:39,160 Speaker 1: ship them over there and all this. Right, So so 1091 00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 1: the record sales was different, um, and you know it's 1092 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:45,160 Speaker 1: like twenty dollars for album, sixteen dollars for albums. So 1093 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 1: we were making so much money, um, and it was 1094 00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 1: enough for everybody because it was just so much money 1095 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:53,400 Speaker 1: crammed into that CD cost back then. And then it 1096 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:56,400 Speaker 1: wasn't that accessible. So if you sold, you sold. It 1097 00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:59,360 Speaker 1: wasn't no other way to get it, you know, to 1098 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 1: go get Yeah, I got to go get E.

So, you know, seeing that transformation, 1101 00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:17,920 Speaker 1: and then we went through where we were selling so 1102 00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:20,440 Speaker 1: many records down here. It was just like and that 1103 00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:22,960 Speaker 1: suppos making us sustain to this point because we saw 1104 00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 1: so many types of records out of Atlanta, UM, so 1105 00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 1: many types of artists. You started to see people spout 1106 00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:30,000 Speaker 1: up like they're coming up. They'll come to the studio 1107 00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 1: one day, you know, singing a song like you know, 1108 00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 1: Aaron Hall or something.

We had this nigga Aaron Hall singing this 1111 00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:47,760 Speaker 1: song sound exactly like the CD Nigger. This nigga was 1112 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:52,360 Speaker 1: singing wiped his face and didn't even sunk up the song. 1113 00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:55,160 Speaker 1: I was like, this, the ga't real that ship sent 1114 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:58,120 Speaker 1: out exactly like the ship like I think it was playing. 1115 00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 1: This nig was singing this ship that's called with no 1116 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:03,760 Speaker 1: aut of tune. Back then, it's like, if you sing, 1117 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:05,480 Speaker 1: you have to be able to sing bro with the 1118 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:07,680 Speaker 1: way that a matter of fact, what would invented auto tune? 1119 00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:10,360 Speaker 1: If people going like even when we did tail C, 1120 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:12,280 Speaker 1: they like, don't you'll got that thing on their voice, 1121 00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 1: Like it ain't no thing to have on their voice. 1122 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:16,160 Speaker 1: You just gotta keep doing that until you get right. 1123 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 1: And so people kept thinking that about stuff that and 1124 00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:21,160 Speaker 1: there's something magic box that fixes it. Like when I 1125 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:23,680 Speaker 1: was doing another bad creation, I would sam with a 1126 00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:27,480 Speaker 1: whole verse and fix it with a pitch will on 1127 00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 1: the keyboard because there were five You can't you know, 1128 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:31,080 Speaker 1: you have to have a guideline singing and then try 1129 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:33,760 Speaker 1: to fix it like this. But you know, I think 1130 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,280 Speaker 1: that's one of the biggest differences today is that you know, 1131 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:38,440 Speaker 1: you had to be able to have talent because it's 1132 00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:41,440 Speaker 1: been so much money on you to record you like, 1133 00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:44,000 Speaker 1: it's half of the ship you're here right now, more 1134 00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:46,880 Speaker 1: than half of it. We never got signed ever because 1135 00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:48,520 Speaker 1: you have to spend money on the ship. So if 1136 00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 1: somebody came in your room, they going there. Even when 1137 00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 1: the whole ship was going on, everybody's singing on lean 1138 00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:56,280 Speaker 1: like what the funk is this? Like going up on 1139 00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:58,240 Speaker 1: the Tuesdays and those kind of records are coming around 1140 00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:00,920 Speaker 1: and people. I was sitting of being my one day 1141 01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:02,960 Speaker 1: and I was sitting with some of the country people 1142 01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:04,840 Speaker 1: and he was performing at record and I was like, 1143 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:07,040 Speaker 1: if this song walked into your office in the country 1144 01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:09,240 Speaker 1: in Nashville, what would you say about the what the 1145 01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:12,439 Speaker 1: fund is going on? Because it takes so much money 1146 01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:14,600 Speaker 1: when you're doing music music, It takes money to record 1147 01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:16,560 Speaker 1: the talent. And if you're not talented, I'm not gonna 1148 01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:19,400 Speaker 1: spend my money on you. User generated content came in, 1149 01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:22,120 Speaker 1: let's say around the time a soldier boy right where 1150 01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:23,880 Speaker 1: meant that you can make your music on the computer, 1151 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:27,360 Speaker 1: upload your music and distribute it at my space. Right, 1152 01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:29,240 Speaker 1: So now you're gonna cut out the distributors. You can't 1153 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:31,320 Speaker 1: cut out the talent gate. You don't, could I everybody 1154 01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:34,400 Speaker 1: who could say no, And it's only up to the consumers. Now, 1155 01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:37,200 Speaker 1: most of the consumers you got can't saying can't wrap. 1156 01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:39,360 Speaker 1: You can't do nothing that easier either, right. So that's 1157 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:41,160 Speaker 1: why some of the most simple ship that you wonder 1158 01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,080 Speaker 1: why is that making it? Because most of the people 1159 01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:44,919 Speaker 1: are singing and rapping. They can't sing it rap either, 1160 01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 1: so that's easy for them to say that it's easy 1161 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:49,920 Speaker 1: for them to sing along to that. And when that 1162 01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 1: floodgate opened, instead of it being like, Hey, I want 1163 01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 1: to sing as great as Whitney or I want to 1164 01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:57,680 Speaker 1: sing as great as uh performer, as great as this 1165 01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:00,120 Speaker 1: person and Michael whoever, they started being like, oh my 1166 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,360 Speaker 1: calibers down here, because that ship I can do what 1167 01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:04,360 Speaker 1: he's doing, so I just want to do And so 1168 01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:08,200 Speaker 1: that opened up this gate of user generated content, and 1169 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:10,480 Speaker 1: it lowered the quality of music that you had to 1170 01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:12,280 Speaker 1: reach for in order to make it like you had 1171 01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:15,120 Speaker 1: to really like go through Like for us, I spent 1172 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 1: so much time playing keyboards and playing over songs and 1173 01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 1: learning how to write songs.

They they 1641 01:26:36,439 --> 01:26:38,240 Speaker 1: didn't do that back in the industry. Back then, it 1642 01:26:38,360 --> 01:26:39,880 Speaker 1: was more like what you didn't know is what made 1643 01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:42,880 Speaker 1: the money and instead of what you did. Though, so 1644 01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:46,679 Speaker 1: you know, if somebody came to right and said, hey, um, well, 1645 01:26:47,040 --> 01:26:49,799 Speaker 1: your video is gonna cost two and a half million dollars, 1646 01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:52,280 Speaker 1: this is gonna cost that, this is gonna cost that, 1647 01:26:52,680 --> 01:26:54,360 Speaker 1: your your balance is going to be right here.

Like they got to the 1723 01:30:08,960 --> 01:30:10,960 Speaker 1: point where I think even the people in Atlanta know 1724 01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:13,600 Speaker 1: they knew Like in bm MEFO was running around and 1725 01:30:13,640 --> 01:30:15,800 Speaker 1: taking out billboards and dumb for money out of the 1726 01:30:15,920 --> 01:30:17,960 Speaker 1: helicopters and doing all the ship they're doing in like 1727 01:30:18,000 --> 01:30:20,599 Speaker 1: the city didn't know when Jeez had like a thousand 1728 01:30:20,800 --> 01:30:24,240 Speaker 1: Snowman uh CDs out everywhere, nobody couldn't you have more 1729 01:30:24,280 --> 01:30:26,880 Speaker 1: making stage and theybody ever could have out and that 1730 01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:30,040 Speaker 1: was breaking them.

Back in the day, it used to 1732 01:30:32,320 --> 01:30:34,360 Speaker 1: be gangsters doing it anyway, like the Tommy Montolas and 1733 01:30:34,360 --> 01:30:36,760 Speaker 1: all them was other kind of gangsters.

So I just feel like, um, 1930 01:41:32,120 --> 01:41:34,800 Speaker 1: where to see it come from those kind of days 1931 01:41:34,840 --> 01:41:37,240 Speaker 1: and then to see it going to you know, everybody 1932 01:41:37,280 --> 01:41:39,080 Speaker 1: really shooting each other, everybody really taking it to the 1933 01:41:39,160 --> 01:41:41,519 Speaker 1: next level, was like, Okay, everything he's going to for 1934 01:41:41,600 --> 01:41:44,000 Speaker 1: Atlanta was really about the colecticness that we brought together. 1935 01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:46,519 Speaker 1: Atlanta is really about cash and doing Curtis Mayfield and 1936 01:41:47,000 --> 01:41:50,000 Speaker 1: these names coming out of the the hood with her 1937 01:41:50,120 --> 01:41:52,080 Speaker 1: pants on, the gold teeth in the calac you know 1938 01:41:52,120 --> 01:41:53,920 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, And like that difference is what makes 1939 01:41:54,000 --> 01:41:56,360 Speaker 1: us really Atlanta. So I think that that's really now 1940 01:41:57,240 --> 01:41:59,880 Speaker 1: what I missed the most about it. Um, there's got 1941 01:42:00,040 --> 01:42:02,000 Speaker 1: really linear. When it used to be so creative, we 1942 01:42:02,080 --> 01:42:03,960 Speaker 1: should be like this is the place where you push 1943 01:42:04,000 --> 01:42:06,320 Speaker 1: your creativity to the match, Like I'm bringing the football 1944 01:42:06,400 --> 01:42:09,120 Speaker 1: clease back.

Now it's different. He don't 1947 01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:26,559 Speaker 1: need to do nothing. Is that a flute? I think 1948 01:42:26,680 --> 01:42:28,720 Speaker 1: it's like a type of flute, but I thought it 1949 01:42:28,800 --> 01:42:32,800 Speaker 1: was an obo or some ship. Maybe it's it's a 1950 01:42:32,840 --> 01:42:36,840 Speaker 1: collected kind of like probably like the combination of two 1951 01:42:36,920 --> 01:42:39,439 Speaker 1: of them. But I thought it was a joke. At first, 1952 01:42:39,479 --> 01:42:42,640 Speaker 1: but he really liked it might be able soon. I 1953 01:42:42,680 --> 01:42:45,080 Speaker 1: know it ain't a regular flue because we're holding like this. Yeah, 1954 01:42:45,479 --> 01:42:49,479 Speaker 1: it's something. It's something too.

You probably won't, but that's how 2310 02:00:16,480 --> 02:00:18,200 Speaker 1: it's gonna go for your first film, but you'll get 2311 02:00:18,240 --> 02:00:21,440 Speaker 1: it made. So okay. So I came back to Atlanta 2312 02:00:21,920 --> 02:00:23,960 Speaker 1: with the with the anybody thought I think when I 2313 02:00:24,000 --> 02:00:26,720 Speaker 1: was making drumline, everybody thought I was. I don't know 2314 02:00:26,760 --> 02:00:28,080 Speaker 1: what they thought I was doing, because I got the 2315 02:00:28,120 --> 02:00:30,360 Speaker 1: hook up was out and some kind of beat like 2316 02:00:30,680 --> 02:00:32,760 Speaker 1: I think snowing the bluff, you know, it was out. 2317 02:00:33,360 --> 02:00:36,000 Speaker 1: So I think the people thought I was making like Mother. 2318 02:00:36,480 --> 02:00:38,560 Speaker 1: I don't think nobody was expecting you. I was about 2319 02:00:38,560 --> 02:00:44,320 Speaker 1: to say I couldn't get people in the movie. I wanted, 2320 02:00:44,320 --> 02:00:46,440 Speaker 1: I'll be like, yo, man, the Luda man, can't you 2321 02:00:46,440 --> 02:00:48,080 Speaker 1: do this part for me? Like? Oh no, man, it 2322 02:00:48,200 --> 02:00:51,440 Speaker 1: might be like you know and um. So then the 2323 02:00:51,480 --> 02:00:54,480 Speaker 1: movie went from thirteen million to eighteen million because they 2324 02:00:54,520 --> 02:00:56,840 Speaker 1: didn't realize how much I had to record the marching bands, right, 2325 02:00:57,040 --> 02:00:59,360 Speaker 1: write songs for the marching bands, record them in the warehouse, 2326 02:00:59,360 --> 02:01:01,560 Speaker 1: and they have them for a back. So it became 2327 02:01:01,600 --> 02:01:04,080 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of came more money. And 2328 02:01:04,160 --> 02:01:05,960 Speaker 1: so they called me from Fox and said Yo, this 2329 02:01:06,080 --> 02:01:08,120 Speaker 1: movie is going from thirteen and eighteen put white people 2330 02:01:08,120 --> 02:01:10,720 Speaker 1: in it. So I said, okay, well how many white people? 2331 02:01:11,600 --> 02:01:14,960 Speaker 1: Because if I don't get this right, white people ain't 2332 02:01:14,960 --> 02:01:16,480 Speaker 1: gonna like it. You know what I'm saying, This is 2333 02:01:16,480 --> 02:01:18,880 Speaker 1: a Marcher brand movie, said we don't care put white 2334 02:01:18,920 --> 02:01:20,920 Speaker 1: people in the movie. The budget just going over. So 2335 02:01:20,960 --> 02:01:22,360 Speaker 1: I say, I gotta figure this out. I go to 2336 02:01:22,400 --> 02:01:24,520 Speaker 1: the AU Center and then having a step show, right, 2337 02:01:25,120 --> 02:01:29,040 Speaker 1: so fab fab the sigma comes out and they got 2338 02:01:29,120 --> 02:01:30,320 Speaker 1: this dude. I think I thought he had on the 2339 02:01:30,400 --> 02:01:32,160 Speaker 1: mask because I thought he was doing the eminem and 2340 02:01:32,200 --> 02:01:34,080 Speaker 1: everybody got their gigs or whatever, they got all they 2341 02:01:34,680 --> 02:01:36,880 Speaker 1: suits on. They got this white kid, blind hair. But 2342 02:01:36,960 --> 02:01:38,640 Speaker 1: what I'm sitting there, I swear some masks. I think 2343 02:01:38,640 --> 02:01:40,720 Speaker 1: he gonna take it off. So I'm like, oh, ship, 2344 02:01:41,000 --> 02:01:42,760 Speaker 1: this is a white kid in five made a sigma 2345 02:01:43,720 --> 02:01:45,840 Speaker 1: they hold on. So then I started looking on the 2346 02:01:45,880 --> 02:01:47,800 Speaker 1: au to see if it was some character like that 2347 02:01:47,880 --> 02:01:49,480 Speaker 1: in the A Center. And it was just a kid 2348 02:01:49,760 --> 02:01:52,200 Speaker 1: that lived down the street from the A Center. You 2349 02:01:52,240 --> 02:01:54,400 Speaker 1: always want to be a drum major. And he had 2350 02:01:54,440 --> 02:01:56,120 Speaker 1: red hair and freckles too, and he woul played the 2351 02:01:56,160 --> 02:01:58,680 Speaker 1: hell like the symbols of Morris Brown. So then I'm like, okay, 2352 02:01:58,720 --> 02:02:00,720 Speaker 1: we can figure this out. They said no want white bands, 2353 02:02:00,800 --> 02:02:04,160 Speaker 1: so I actually put Georgia Tech toward the State. Whoever 2354 02:02:04,240 --> 02:02:06,680 Speaker 1: had white bands. I put them all in drumline. But 2355 02:02:07,000 --> 02:02:10,800 Speaker 1: it was fucking atrocious. Cause imagine that. Imagine seeing him 2356 02:02:10,800 --> 02:02:15,280 Speaker 1: stand there going then and and then imagine like thing 2357 02:02:15,960 --> 02:02:21,120 Speaker 1: anybody else just to State. So you're like this, you 2358 02:02:21,200 --> 02:02:22,840 Speaker 1: can't do this to the schools. You know what I'm saying. 2359 02:02:23,280 --> 02:02:27,760 Speaker 1: Fam You by the way, like we didn't get in 2360 02:02:27,800 --> 02:02:34,400 Speaker 1: there because we can't lose. Yeah, the story like he's like, 2361 02:02:34,440 --> 02:02:36,480 Speaker 1: we're not getting We're not getting that to lose. So 2362 02:02:36,600 --> 02:02:39,960 Speaker 1: what I did was made of fake school. Right, I'll 2363 02:02:40,000 --> 02:02:42,480 Speaker 1: make Atlanta, A and T don't exist. It's a fake school, 2364 02:02:42,560 --> 02:02:46,400 Speaker 1: so that nobody had to lose to another school. Right. 2365 02:02:46,440 --> 02:02:48,680 Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna be able with Camerason Fam be so 2366 02:02:49,360 --> 02:02:52,360 Speaker 1: throughing whatever, Right, so make a fake He was still like, 2367 02:02:52,400 --> 02:03:00,040 Speaker 1: we're not losing them either. Fictitious school. So school you 2368 02:03:00,160 --> 02:03:07,040 Speaker 1: made up the record were roll? Yeah, that's because I 2369 02:03:07,120 --> 02:03:10,520 Speaker 1: wanted to see us there. And then stuffs with the Cabins, 2370 02:03:10,600 --> 02:03:12,880 Speaker 1: most of the band Lanta and most of the high 2371 02:03:12,880 --> 02:03:15,600 Speaker 1: school man. So we just called ourselves making up everything. 2372 02:03:15,640 --> 02:03:17,440 Speaker 1: Then people started coming to Atlanta looking for the school. 2373 02:03:17,800 --> 02:03:20,320 Speaker 1: They want to go there, like that's in North Carolina brot. 2374 02:03:23,640 --> 02:03:26,280 Speaker 1: They said, you can get me into the band program 2375 02:03:29,640 --> 02:03:39,600 Speaker 1: him and old girls.
