33
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,959

45
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: seeing where they came from, and I just think the

46
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: conversation was, you know, we we there was growth there.

47
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: We're both successful, but we love what we do, you

49
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: in this crazy We've been kicking it ever since we've

50
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: been working on the project, you know what I'm saying.

51
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: And it's just like it just loved because you able

52
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: to brainstorm with people that are like minded, that that

53
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: on your level, you know what I'm saying, That are

54
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: really your peers business wise too. So it's like I

55
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 1: bounce ideas off of them and they bounce ideas off

56
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: of me. And it's even real like you know, you know,

57
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: real talk. You know when I say on half of Atlanta,

58
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: I'm not captain, that's the real thing. And when Drama

59
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: and them was trying to get into real estate, you know,

60
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: that was a conversation we had and I turned them

61
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: onto my guy. You know what I'm saying. They helped

62
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: them and now they they probably owned the other quarter

63
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: of it. You know what I'm saying, so did you

64
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 1: see when the internet went to go look? And you

65
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:01,399
Speaker 1: know clearly they don't understand property. They don't understand exactly,

66
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: ill shout man, come on further of all, I beat

67
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: the feed. You think I'm gonna let y'all to seat

68
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: full by, you know what I mean. But it's crazy

69
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: because you know we as a culture. You're right, you

70
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: know you say that, And I say that with pride.

71
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 1: You know I'm not saying I got a platform. I

72
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: got plenty platinum records. We all do. But a goal

73
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: of mine was to really be in the real estate

74
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: game and be a mogul in it and be for real.

75
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: And I've done that, you know what I'm saying. But

76
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,679
Speaker 1: it's crazy, like you said. And it was one of

77
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: my old houses that I brought my mom, like from

78
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: Wade back in the day that the first house I

79
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: bought it and it was still in my name and

80
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: that's what it was pulling up. I had to call

81
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: the lady that did my trust and be like, yo,

82
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: get that out my name too, before you know, somebody

83
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: tried to assume me and get that. It showed the

84
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: ignorant because people don't understand lllcs didn't understand trust, you

85
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: know what I mean, just like when people say you're

86
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: obedion that they think you gotta be in dollars in

87
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: the bank. It's sitting there, you know, waiting for you

88
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: to go spurs with it. Yeah. When I was watching

89
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: winning plays, I really, uh I noticed that like as

90
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: far as you know, buying the Lakers and everything, he

91
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: actually everything was in real estate. He didn't have a

92
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: lot of liquid And that was something that struck out

93
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: to me because I was like, Okay, having all that

94
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: money in the bank, right, that's not going to increase

95
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: in value the way that having the property can increase

96
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: or other investments can increase the value. So just having

97
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 1: money sitting because I feel like sometimes our mentality is

98
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: we gotta stack this money. We gotta stack this money.

99
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 1: We got to have a larger bank account. But because

100
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: of inflation and the way that that rate of money grows,

101
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,119
Speaker 1: it's not the same. So you do have to invest.

102
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: I mean, you lose you lose money by just holding it.

103
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: But I mean I think culturally, you know what I'm saying.

104
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: Even when I was coming up, you know, that was it.

105
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: You want to feel the safer up you know, but

106
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 1: if your money is sitting in the bank or sitting

107
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: in the safe and it's not working for you, it's

108
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: not doing anything. And that's what we And by the way,

109
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: it's just like I had to build that up. You know,

110
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: my credit line is sick, you know what I'm saying.

111
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: You know, if anything was to ever happened, crazy credit line.

112
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: Then also on top of that, it's like you got equity.

113
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: You know, almost own most of my properties flat out

114
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: because every big check I ever made, I put it

115
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: back into my properties of my real estate. And I

116
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 1: just think, you know, you should own something, you know

117
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, You should have something, because even if

118
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 1: you do have a bunch of cash in the bank,

119
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: anything can happen. I mean, one time I had got

120
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: into some legal things and I want to go open

121
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: my safe deposit box and they wouldn't let me open

122
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: my safe deposit box, you know what I mean, because

123
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: out of lawsuit, and that was real to I'm like, damn,

124
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,559
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, you can freeze my safe

125
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 1: deposit box in the bank, and you know, they just

126
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: go to let you know that. You know, at the

127
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: end of the day, it's just like you know, we

128
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: as a coach, we get a lot of paper man,

129
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: and that's my position in this game. It's just like

130
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 1: a lot of these young cats, and I commend them

131
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: for doing what they're doing, but it's just like, you

132
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 1: gotta set yourself up for fifteen, twenty years, thirty years

133
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: in this game. But you can do other things besides,

134
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: you know, just run around the world and pick up bags,

135
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Because it wasn't all said

136
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: to done. You won't to sit back, you know, and

137
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: at a certain age and like live life and stretch free.

138
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's what I'm on. I want to go

139
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 1: back to you and Drama. What was what was the

140
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: beef over? And how did y'all fix it? Well? Wow,

141
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: it got real, bro, it got really real. Like to

142
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: the point the beef was over, Dram had somebody that

143
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: was managing him, and I don't know what I think

144
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: he was. It might have been from New York, but

145
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: he was trying to be an artist too, and he

146
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: kind of got into Drama and them ere about a

147
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: lot of things and just started to build this toxic

148
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:40,119
Speaker 1: and toxic environment. Um of you know, he said, she said,

149
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 1: And I think Drama, you know, decided he had to

150
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: go with them because I think at the time home

151
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: he might have been Nick Muscle or something like that.

152
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: I don't know, but he was like told to be

153
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 1: the g and something happened at the club. I can't

154
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 1: really say, you know what I'm saying, but yeah, you know,

155
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: it got it got really bad over time, and I

156
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 1: think it was for me. You know, I came to

157
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: the point in my life where I just kind of

158
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: like start healing myself, you know what I'm saying, because

159
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: I had a lot of trauma and things, so, you know,

160
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: and I just started work on myself. And I think

161
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: Dramdon was doing the same thing because I saw he

162
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: started losing weight working out, you know what I'm saying.

163
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: And it just like over time, we just kind of

164
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: came back together when the guy got out of here,

165
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: out of their business, and we just started talking here

166
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: and there. And I think it really was Don Cannon,

167
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like Don Cannon because he

168
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: was always like they. But it was crazy because when

169
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: it happened me at Don was cool and Don was like, yo,

170
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: Dram need to you know what I mean. So we

171
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: figured it out, but it came back full circle, man,

172
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: because just like even when we did that B Side

173
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: concert and I was just like going through all the

174
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: records and all the things we did brought back so

175
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: many memories, man, because it's like, damn, but we really

176
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: been through so you know what I'm saying, and it

177
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: just brought everything back full circle. So I just kind

178
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: of feel like we both just grew, you know what

179
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: I'm saying. It changed all surrounding because I had people

180
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: around me too, you know what I'm saying. It was, Yeah,

181
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: it was putting stuff from my you know, they won't

182
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: go to the the war. We're going to war. I'm like,

183
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,240

224
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: what they knew me by. And then I started doing

225
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: music because there was some other cats down there that

226
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,200

227
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: called sop sounds a profit, and I was kind of

228
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: mocking myself after what they was doing. I went a

229
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,839

230
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 1: so they one of my partners, it was an sop.

231
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 1: They went to prison and he got out like eight

232
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,080

236
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 1: like like regularly, you know what I mean on Park

237
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: Rate where everybody know me at and everybody come out

238
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:36,520

240
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: I would, you know. But but it did something to me,

241
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:45,719
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because I would be down

242
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: there and then people would just show up and they'd

243
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 1: be like Michael Jackson, and it's a real thing. I

244
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: remember walking through um walking in a lot of deal

245
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: with some of my people and it was like, yo,

246
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: Michael Jackson and they're like, what the hell are they saying? Yeah,

247
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: Drama Jones, Yeah, before a lot of that. I love

248
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,319
Speaker 1: the record of screet Cred too. Yeah. And you say,

249
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: you know, they lost your scree crab. They say you

250
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,679
Speaker 1: lost your screek cred. So what man? And I'm glad

251
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 1: that somebody like you who's glorified the screets for so long,

252
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: you know, you've gotten to the age where you like,

253
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 1: you know what screedt creb not important? Like you remember

254
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: the first time you realize that you can't get that realization?

255
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: Oh man, I really think that when you start walking

256
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: in those rooms and you're trying to do business. Nobody

257
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: really care about what you've done on the streets, you

258
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And then as a man, you

259
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,679
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, you shouldn't care about because what

260
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 1: people think about me ain't none of my spiritual business,

261
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like it's just not But

262
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: for me, it's just like I don't need validation about

263
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: what you consider to be real for me to be

264
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 1: a real man. Let's take the rap and the artists

265
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: and everything out of that and a lot of the

266
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: things I did because I was trying to get validation.

267
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: I want people to know that I'm about my issue.

268
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,079
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this and that. And the last time

269
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: I got locked up in um La, when the incident

270
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: happened in U in the bay, like that's when I

271
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: was rid of, like, man, you got the world like you,

272
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: you're successful, You on tour, you're doing you know, thirty

273
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: thirty thousand people at night, and you in jail for

274
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: what you know what I mean. I remember everybody calling

275
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: like yeah, man, woo, like you know, like it's a

276
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: real thing, and I'm seeing it going like about to

277
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 1: throw my whole career away because I'm trying to live

278
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,200
Speaker 1: by a stereotype of the cold, you know what I'm saying.

279
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 1: And and and if I do go to prison, ain't

280
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: none of the people finishing me no money? They ain't

281
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: for the right meeting, ain't look for my kids. Come on,

282
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: I watched it. It's funny and Freddie gives. He took

283
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: accountability for the issues that you guys had, and y'all

284
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: actually ran into each other. What was that like for you?

285
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: I mean, it was the way I look at it, like,

286
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: you know, if I got an issue or I feel

287
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:00,839
Speaker 1: away about something, I'm gonna feel it, you know what

288
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Not even the emotional part. But when I

289
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: seen him, it was just like it was love because

290
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 1: I never really had a problem with kids. You always

291
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 1: said that. Yeah. I always told him, bro, like you're

292
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: gonna be big. You know what I'm saying, minus me,

293
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. I don't want to hold

294
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 1: you back, but I just think it at times when

295
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: we want the instant gratification, we don't understand like this

296
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 1: thing takes time, you know, for you to be great

297
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: and you to come into your own. So when I

298
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,319
Speaker 1: saw him, it was just more like, you know, I'm

299
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:28,959
Speaker 1: glad to see you move when I'm glad to see

300
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 1: you coming into your own you know, I'm hearing the music,

301
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: I'm seeing what you're doing. That's what's up. I told like,

302
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 1: I'm like I told you, and we just dapped it

303
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: up and you know, chopped it up for men exchange numbers,

304
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: and it was love and its just like when you

305
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 1: really go back and look at it, you know that

306
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 1: process had to happen. But I just think, you know,

307
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: you know, like I said before, just like when you

308
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 1: have trauma and you're coming from situations and you really

309
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: don't know how to communicate, you know, it's always gonna

310
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: be that when it comes to what expectations are, you

311
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So I just feel like, you know,

312
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: a lot of the incidents I ever had in music

313
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 1: or in business is because there was poor communication. And

314
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: I feel like if we would have hopped on the

315
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 1: phone and chopped it up way earlier, he told me

316
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,319
Speaker 1: how he felt, I told him how I felt, and

317
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: we can agree to disagree and be like, all right, cool,

318
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: well we can still get money and still do music

319
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: and keep this to ourselves. You know. I felt like

320
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 1: that would have been the way. But I think we

321
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 1: both kind of walked away from this like he's a

322
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: better artist person and I have a better understanding for

323
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: you know, dealing with artists and people now, just like

324
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: you gotta let people have a room to feel how

325
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: they feel. Yeah, it always seemed like he took it personal,

326
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: but for you, it was just all business because all

327
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: you ever said was Freddie was just upset because he

328
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 1: didn't pop with you. He didn't pop off right, And

329
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: the thing was everything ain't the right mix though, Bro,

330
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like every everything, you know,

331
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: everything don't just go together, so at sometimes you gotta

332
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 1: try something different. So I didn't feel no way about that.

333
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: I wanted him to be successful, you know what I'm saying.

334
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: It just like that didn't work. But the YGD thing did,

335
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So it's just how it works.

336
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, I just feel

337
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 1: like that was what was supposed to happen for him,

338
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: and he sees that now, you know what I'm saying.

339
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: But I hope that he understands going forward because I

340
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: had to happen with me with NAS when the hip

341
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: hop was dead thing. You know what I'm saying. I

342
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 1: flipped out because I thought he talking about me. I'm like,

343
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: hold up, man, you know because I'm winning. Now you're

344
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: talking about hip hop dead. It's a whole conversation. So

345
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: when I said what I said on the radio, and

346
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: you know, I was spazzing and flipping out, you know

347
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: what I'm saying because I could have called him. You know,

348
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 1: he called me a king. I can understand your frustration.

349
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: Let me just tell you, you you know, my perspective. And

350
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 1: when he explained it to me calm and cool and collective,

351
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 1: I'm like, damn right. So that just made me think.

352
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 1: So when Gibbs called me with the I'm just like, bro,

353
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: we just gotta sit down and get in the same

354
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 1: room so we can figure this out. That was my thing.

355
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: So that's why I never took it personal. Right. Also,

356
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: longer back to the screen create writer, because you said

357
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 1: something about, you know, the stereotypical things that they think

358
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: a man should be. I find that everything that they

359
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: tell us they want us to do to be real,

360
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: always it's something criminal. You gotta do something criminal, you

361
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 1: gotta die, Yeah, joy to do ten years. Don't tell

362
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: nobody like all that. I mean, look, man to each

363
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: his own. I mean, I just always believe in integrity,

364
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 1: values and morals. I have that, you know, and I

365
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 1: can't speak for another man. They ain't my place. But

366
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: it's just like I'd be damned if I did all

367
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: this to get out of that to do that again,

368
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, It just doesn't make sense

369
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: to me. It's just almost like, you know, becoming a millionaire,

370
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: living beyond your wildest dreams and just going to spend

371
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: and give all your money away to be back in

372
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 1: that same position. It doesn't It just doesn't make logical sense.

373
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: You're doing this to get out of your environment, to

374
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 1: put people on, and then you're getting caught up in

375
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 1: the stereotype of but I still gotta be a real one.

376
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: And then you go out here and you put yourself

377
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 1: in prison and ain't nobody looking out for you. You know,

378
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 1: you go out here and you get killed, and ain't

379
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: nobody taking killed your kids? You know what I'm saying.

380
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: And everybody I've seen try to keep it really what happened?

381
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 1: What happened to Dolf? We're having a nipping to bank roll,

382
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: look glamm to doeb you know, look what happened to

383
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 1: B and D. You know what I'm saying, it's all

384
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 1: because of that. I'm gonna be real with the You

385
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,880
Speaker 1: gotta be real with yourself, man, you know what I mean.

386
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 1: That's one thing about it. But I ain't living for

387
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 1: nobody but me and mind. You know what I'm saying,

388
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 1: Because at the end of the day, that's all that matter.

389
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: You know, you're in your deathbar. You're sick right now.

390
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,879
Speaker 1: The people that really rock with you and love you,

391
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: they're gonna be there. Bro. Do you feel like you've

392
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: got a responsibility being that, you know, you were the

393
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,919
Speaker 1: mouthpiece for the screets for so long, you know, probably

394
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 1: encourage a lot of brothers to do the wrong thing.

395
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 1: Do you feel like you have an obligation that, you know,

396
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: encouraging me to do the right thing? Now? Um? Well,

397
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: I always felt like what I was doing was right

398
00:17:54,520 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: because I was always talking about motivating the thugs. I

399
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 1: told him when I came in the game that I

400
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 1: was corporate thugging. That's what I'm doing. You see it,

401
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 1: corporate getting You see it the Coney Act, the water

402
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: shout out, the nah shout out. That defines a few,

403
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,199
Speaker 1: but I think that my position in this you know,

404
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,159
Speaker 1: people always ask me what your position was the run

405
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 1: Mount Rushmore. My position in this game is just to

406
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 1: continue to lead by example because I'm one of the

407
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,360
Speaker 1: very few that did what I said and everybody knows that,

408
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Everybody knows that I put

409
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 1: in my work, but I continue to evolve without having

410
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 1: to have any type of validation. So for me, it's

411
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 1: just like the more that I can evolve and grow

412
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: and show people like you can do this and still

413
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 1: be who you are, that's that's my responsibility because it's

414
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 1: almost like, well, she gonna go. If you're coming from

415
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: the street and you're wrapping, you're supposed to just stay there,

416
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,879
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Ten fifteen years in it,

417
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: you're still thugging like so it's almost like, nah, you

418
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: go out. You can own a company, you can by business,

419
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,360
Speaker 1: you can buy real estate, and you can still look

420
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 1: like this. You know what I'm saying. You don't got

421
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 1: to change up who you are just to do what

422
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: you do. So I feel like that's more so my

423
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: responsibility to anything, because it's almost like I opened the

424
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,679
Speaker 1: door for them. I was missed the trapper die. I

425
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 1: didn't close the door when I came in. I didn't

426
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 1: lock the door. Most of these casts that you see

427
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,120
Speaker 1: are really coming from the streets. But if you ask

428
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: them who they saw do it first, it would have

429
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: to be me. Who else came from where I came from?

430
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 1: That you saw it in real time and got to

431
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,640
Speaker 1: where they at. So at the end of the day,

432
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: I do have a responsibility to keep you know. That's

433
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 1: why you don't see my name in no bullshit. I'm

434
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: grown as hell, ain't about I ain't about to be

435
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: in no blog. I ain't about to be you know

436
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 1: what I mean. I ain't about to be in the

437
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 1: wrong spots. Ain't been because that's I'm a man. First.

438
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: The snowball, the snowball, Yeah shot out there. Everybody raised

439
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: almost a half a million dollars for any city, use,

440
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 1: any city kids. And then not even that. I just

441
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: really wanted to bring, you know, my relationships in the

442
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 1: room and put them all together so people can rub

443
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: bowls and make contacts and network because I know a

444
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,119
Speaker 1: lot of people, you know what I'm saying. I always

445
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 1: was taught that you got no different types of people.

446
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, so some of my homies

447
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 1: who who who who couldn't be in those type of rooms,

448
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: they had an opportunity to do that. Some of those

449
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 1: people that I know that a millionaires, bigionare's that don't

450
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: understand the culture get a chance to see it now

451
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 1: and go like wow, I never know you guys were

452
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,199
Speaker 1: doing this. My banker friends was talking to my you know,

453
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:31,640
Speaker 1: to my industry partners about loans and different things, and

454
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,119
Speaker 1: everybody wanted to come back next year and do it bigger.

455
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: But you know, that's that's what it's about, you know,

Speaker 1: I just kind of feel like he saved my life

466

00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 1: And I kind of felt like he left me alone.

483
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 1: But I had to really snap out of it, you

484
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,919
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, like, damn, I want to make

00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,440
Speaker 1: my corner and you said he signed you and Ross.

528
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: How come he don't get more credit for that? Because

529
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: I always feel like Jay and La read get that credit.

530
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,679
Speaker 1: I man, you know how that go? Um they are

531
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: the top of the chain. But like but like they

532
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,119
Speaker 1: would say that Kevin lows in La re signed me,

533
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 1: but shake Shakier was the one who told La, I'm

534
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 1: in the streets every day, like Jeezy, the real deal.

535
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 1: And then when he went in he called me, He's like,

536
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: I got this guy from Miami. I want you to

537
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 1: meet him and then I'll be damn p It was

538
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: Rick Ross. You know what I'm saying. He signed Rick

539
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,119
Speaker 1: Ross up there, and there's a couple more people that

540
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 1: he signed, but he, you know, he he was very

541
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: influential when it came to La read because that was

542
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: LA's guy. So he kind of listened to what Shake

543
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: had it because he wasn't in the streets La, but

544
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 1: Shake was so when the whole come into picture, because

545
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 1: you know, oh Man Hove came into picture of Hove

00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 1: president coming in. I never forget. I was walking into

556
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: Death Gym maybe about a month later, and there's like

557
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: a little little alleyway in front of it, but you're

558
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 1: not supposed to drive in the alleyway. They haven't blocked

559
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 1: off like with like uh these metal things. And I

560
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: remember there was a may back right in front of them,

561
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 1: in front of the building where you're not supposed to park.

562
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 1: And I'm sitting at the Death Gym kind of giving

563
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 1: them my ID so I can go upstairs. And I

564
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,439
Speaker 1: see the door open and I look back and I,

565
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:50,399
Speaker 1: you know, continue to do what I do, and then

566
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 1: I just hear somebody say yo jeezy, and I look back.

567
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 1: It was whole getting out of may back. He's like,

568
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: come on, just come up with me. We'll go upstairs. Yeah,

569
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: you know, I'm the new president. Right. It's like, whatever

570
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 1: you need, I got you. I was like, Damn, I

571
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: love Kevin allows the god damn, you know. And the

572
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 1: first day I'm thinking to my mind, like I gotta

573
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: get a record out of the whole. I gotta figure

574
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 1: this out right immediately. That was like my first thought,

575
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: like being with the record with jay Z but now

576
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: and I remember reading that Jay said he told you

577
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: that Thub Motivation was a classic. Yeah, Um, yeah he did.

578
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: And then I just remember I didn't because I had

579
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:36,239
Speaker 1: a lot of survivors remorse then, so I really didn't, like,

580
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: you know, anything anybody said to me. I just really

581
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 1: didn't take it for what it was because I was

582
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: still dealing with my demons trying to figure things out.

583
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 1: But when he called me when I dropped USDA and

584
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: he was like, you're certified CEO now, like you you've

585
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 1: done something outside of yourself that was successful. I took

586
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 1: that to heart because it was like USDA did a

587
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: half a million records and then like my homeboys, you

588
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,479
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, full of blood. Yeah, So when

589
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 1: I'm like my partners, you know what I'm saying, it

590
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 1: still did it half of me and records and I

591
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 1: was like, damn. So that really resonated with me. I

592
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 1: think the Motivation one on one being a classic to

593
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:16,400
Speaker 1: me really resonated. Um when I got to The Recession,

594
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: the album The Recession, that's the third one, yeah, because

595
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: before that I was dealing with what I had going

596
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 1: on mentally and when I woke up one day, I

597
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,160
Speaker 1: was just like, you know what, I ain't I ain't

598
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 1: in prison. I'm still free. I'm successful. I'm gonna be

599
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 1: a superstar. And that's when I just started. I started,

600
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 1: you know, working on myself. Uh you know, eating right,

601
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: going to the gym. You know what I'm saying. They

602
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 1: went right right went from it went from all the

603
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,359
Speaker 1: gangsters being in the front row to ladies being in

604
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 1: the front row. You know what I'm saying, doing panties

605
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 1: and brawls like that. I ain't never going back, you

606
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 1: know what I mean, And different, different vibes, and and

607
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: and then I was able to be like damn like

608
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: And then that's when I started getting back in my

609
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: one on one bad and I would started doing the

610
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,679
Speaker 1: songs a lot. I'm like, Dan, these songs ain't going nowhere.

611
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, it was going nowhere because you know,

612
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,199
Speaker 1: you do your first album and you get about your

613
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,920
Speaker 1: third fourth album, you don't think that you know your

614
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 1: first album is gonna be a significant because you got

615
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: better songs in your mind. So I'm going back and

616
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: I'm still doing trap with Diane. I'm still doing uh

617
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 1: so Survive and uh go crazy crazy bottom of the

618
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,679
Speaker 1: man and I'm like, you ain't going nowhere, And I

619
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 1: was like, in my mind, I was like Dan. But

620
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 1: the crazy thing about it is, you know how we do.

621
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,159
Speaker 1: We don't give your props into way later on. You

622
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Uh, everybody act like he was

623
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: regular when it came out. That ain't true. And I

624
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: ain't gonna let you SHO didn't tell that lot. Now

625
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 1: you ain't gonna say that there was nothing regular about

626
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 1: the motivation. One on one, everybody knew what that was.

627
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: But as far as but you gotta understand too, A

628
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: lot of my time I was like in Atlanta, so

629
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: I was around like my peers or people that I knew,

630
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 1: but it felt like it was just I don't track

631
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: to Atlanta for that moment, feel like everything that was

632
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: happening in Atlanta Traffic Die, Thug Motivation was the soundtrack

633
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: to it. Well, I think, yeah, Trappa die for sure.

634
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,959
Speaker 1: But that's the thing, you know, because I was making

635
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 1: music based off what I was really doing. You know

636
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, The how is really living? Because I

637
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 1: was under the impression that any day I can go

638
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: to prison. You know what I'm saying I'm like waiting

639
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: on it, you know what I mean. So I was

640
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 1: just putting everything I had in the music, and it

641
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: was what was actually going on at the time. And

642
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 1: I think that's why I resonated, because I would say

643
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 1: stuff that I did last night and somebody saw that.

644
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 1: I seen him in Magic City doing this. I've seen

645
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 1: him in traffic riding that, and I just think it

646
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: really resonated. So it was like it was a soundtrack

647
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 1: for sure. I wonder why they never, well, I didn't

648
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 1: never use the lyrics against y'all. Man, I'm thank god

649
00:29:48,680 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: they didn't. I but it just, you know, has to

650
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: be somewhere. Oh man, But listen, B side, So it

651
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: is that a whole tour that you're doing. I just

652
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 1: I know you did Atlanta, You're doing Detroit. Yeah, going

653
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: on with the B side concept. I mean, it's just

654
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: something that I really really want to do because, like

655
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: I said, when I went through all those directors with Drama, um,

656
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 1: you know, we just got so many and this is

657
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 1: before any albums. You know, we had to go almost

658
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: through three hundred songs and these are songs I never

659
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 1: get a chance to get because of the way, Uh

660
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: you know I'm touring or doing shows, and it's just

661
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: like a lot of them songs are my favorite, you know,

662
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 1: like air Forces too and Teasy to snow Man all that,

663
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 1: so I get a chance to do them. So it's

664
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: like a breath of fresh air for me. So I

665
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: know we're gonna we're gonna be in Detroit tonight um
