But that's that's that's the 0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:52.560 comical part of it because everyone in Comeback Kings from 0:00:52.720 --> 0:00:56.520 June Bloon from from a Black Rob do it all 0:00:56.920 --> 0:01:01.240 like everybody's still out there doing anything making it happen, 0:01:01.680 --> 0:01:05.880 but we all think we are the top echelon of 0:01:06.360 --> 0:01:09.600 the throwback of our error. Okay, so it's like a 0:01:09.640 --> 0:01:14.160 scripted reality show kind of Kevin Hardish you're feeling, but 0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:18.360 it's HollyHood. Oh yeah, what's going on with you and Blade? 0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:21.320 It seems like it seems like Jersey is uh you 0:01:22.120 --> 0:01:25.240 Unified because this is a BNC thing. But it's also 0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:26.920 seems like y'all trying to do a lot of positive 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.160 things in the community lately. A lot of things, a 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:32.240 lot of things since like the music faction has been 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:35.759 on something where you can't really go and blend in 0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:37.480 and get it the way you use if you had 0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:39.679 hot music or been in the game long enough, you 0:01:39.680 --> 0:01:42.240 get respected to go somewhere thorm Son, the group you're 0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:46.080 working with anything else like right on now? So much politics. 0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:48.440 So we got it to the point where what's the 0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:52.040 next hustle because we could go wherever. So it's the movie, 0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:55.200 so it made sense. We didn't. Me and this guy 0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:57.880 has seen each other for years and always it's been 0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:02.640 like pal doing the different parties and have the homies 0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:05.200 where anybody is chilled like a family, you know what 0:02:05.200 --> 0:02:07.960 I in a banging situation, it's like it's all Jersey love. 0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:10.480 So we're like, we gotta capitalize off of this. So 0:02:10.560 --> 0:02:13.440 with this what we're doing, it's just making the streets 0:02:13.480 --> 0:02:17.440 stronger and safer because everybody knows everybody. It's hard to 0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:20.800 break brain with somebody and then have a beef with 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.240 them on the streets. So the little little bucks in 0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:26.480 our pups and anything else they seeing, like meeting up 0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:28.600 with each other, seeing each other. So when they see 0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:30.760 each other, oh no, no, that's the homie. That's the homie. 0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:33.280 So it ain't no where are you from? Where are 0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:36.639 you from? And it's long you feel me? So they 0:02:36.680 --> 0:02:41.320 have a great film east Side Oh my god. Yeah, 0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:44.040 we're working on this film called east Side Story. It's 0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:47.800 an urban based story that gives you a reality of 0:02:48.360 --> 0:02:51.560 what you go through. And uh, nor those who can't 0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:53.680 aren't fortunate enough to walk down the street. You know, 0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:55.760 we give it to you raw and uncut, so you know, 0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:58.360 just tune in like we're working hard. Give a little 0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:02.919 background on yourself. Blazer from Knew It, Yeah, yeah, definitely 0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:07.359 definitely Jersey stand Up, No Prince Street Projects, Hayes Home, 0:03:08.120 --> 0:03:13.079 pendit in Court. Uh thirty eight years old, CEO bout 0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:15.680 the music. Just working hard, man, doing what we gotta do. Man, 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:17.240 Just trying to put Jersey on the map as a 0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:19.720 whole man. A lot of people remember you from the 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:21.799 video where you told Chief Keith it was a rap. 0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:25.760 Yeah yeah, yeah, we don't do disrespect. We don't do disrespect. 0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:28.000 You can't disrespect the people and didn't come eat, so 0:03:28.040 --> 0:03:30.239 it's like it's one of them things. The record show. 0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:32.800 He hasn't been back since Keith Right now, you gotta 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:36.160 take Jersey very close to your heart. Yes, about about 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:39.240 a month two months ago, Fatal Hussein passed away. He's 0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:44.200 from Jersey piece and Tretch called me and he was 0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:48.720 a little concerned. You felt that DJ's in the Tri 0:03:48.880 --> 0:03:52.160 state area, Lawrence showing proper respect to Fata, who's sin 0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:56.400 who passed away. Well, it's like definitely and knowing it's 0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:59.480 certain DJ's that had the power to play what they want. 0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:03.040 You feel me. Certain DJs have to go under the 0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:05.360 protocol which the station is. This is the list, it's 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:08.240 a set bum So those that always when I hear 0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:11.640 a station, I heard they represent New York, New Jersey, Connecticut. 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:15.720 So I feel like if somebody is from that area 0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:19.200 and is a legend in the state, they should have 0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:22.560 respect of a tribute like other legends around and try 0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:26.800 state get through respect. You feel me, You come into Jersey, 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:30.000 you get money, you know what I mean? Says Slick 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:32.559 Shot throughout years, but always made it to the point 0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:35.520 where you could come because it's certain homies doing parties, 0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:39.880 promotions that come on come and do it. I don't 0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:42.280 do music. I had to. I was forcing to retirement 0:04:42.520 --> 0:04:44.560 because the dudes like this. I don't get extorted by 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:46.720 nobody on the streets, so I shouldn't have to do 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.560 nothing extra to get no play or anything else. I 0:04:49.600 --> 0:04:51.880 ain't played by those tight rules. So hey, I don't 0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.720 do music. I gave all my artists the Independence Day. 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:57.800 What's that the fourth of July Independence Day. I don't 0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:00.360 have no groups. So if you go out they don't 0:05:00.400 --> 0:05:02.800 throw the homie off the station, then y'all have a 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:04.320 spot up in there, and I won't be on there 0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:08.160 to tarnish it. But when he went, we put him 0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:11.240 in the dirt and there was no respect to him, 0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:14.440 like that, hommie, you ain't welcome in Jersey no more. 0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:17.560 And saying like that, I said, you won't make another 0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:19.800 dollar in Jersey. So ain't nobody says, oh, he's starting 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:22.919 in the me up. Yo, don't come to Jersey because 0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:25.200 by the time you finish paying your secret service to 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:28.039 come in and it's shooting to and anything else, you 0:05:28.080 --> 0:05:31.520 ain't gonna make no dollar. Now. After I spoke to him, 0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:34.520 I respect him a big homie ot bar that said y'all. No, 0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:36.960 'm ia know you wanna talk to you? Bum boom boom, Sally, 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:39.760 you know what? All right, call him, call him homie 0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:42.800 boom boom boom, talk on the phone. Bye, I'll see 0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:45.320 you when I see you. We'll have a nice talk. 0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:49.400 By uncle. Ika spoke to him now talking him. I 0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:52.800 see him next week. He goes on the air, I'm 0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.440 coming to Jersey. Oh yeah, I'm coming to Symphony Hall, 0:05:55.520 --> 0:06:00.440 future man man. Oh yeah, all right, pump the Magic 0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:10.440 Dragon feeling ad. He came around, He was around, did 0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:16.080 a mix a lot better, making you turn. Yeah, yeah, 0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:20.440 he came through. He came through. No, no, no, I've 0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:22.359 seen bro I seen them. He didn't get out the 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:28.560 carter smart on his part. Yeah, So you know, and 0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:30.200 you know the sad thing about when I spoke to 0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:35.920 tell them who were talking about? Tell him about? But 0:06:36.040 --> 0:06:37.480 what made it? You know? When I spoke to you that, 0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:39.400 do you know? The sad thing about it is a 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:41.440 lot of times people don't know the history of what 0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:43.800 happens in New York. And I said, you know, even 0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:46.440 with fatal I said, most of the DJs on radio 0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:50.000 that are of age, we're probably too young to really 0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:52.960 know the outlaws or even no hit him up or 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:54.280 even knowing a lot of the stuff. And it was 0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:56.320 like it takes a lot of the old gs to 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:58.680 explain it to these guys, you know. And the thing is, 0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:01.640 it's not just like Jerry standing we wrapped Jersey. Of course, 0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:05.600 it's New York, New Jersey and Connecticut right absolutely. When 0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:07.640 you ever heard of artists from Connecticut get broke by 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:10.000 this dude that breaks everything? And this is the street 0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:14.960 supposedly it ain't no doping season. Connecticut ain't know doping 0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:17.760 season all throughout the boroughs Yo, when we came up. 0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:20.760 The best part of radio that may radio every place 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:22.920 you landed, you knew where you was at. If you 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.440 go to the A, you hear that majority of the 0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:28.160 A sprinkle with a little bit of everything else La, 0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:31.960 you hear LA sprinkle with a little bit Midwest, East Coast. 0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:33.320 When you come to the East coast, you know you 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:37.360 in the East coast of Mecca. Oh dude, then did 0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:39.720 it to a point where it's just whoever he gets 0:07:39.720 --> 0:07:42.080 the most money where he playing is the South was 0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:45.160 doing them good. Termed the whole thing where everybody got 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:47.880 to switch. They sound and sound like the South I 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:50.200 love the South, but I want to hear when I'm 0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:53.080 in the South, you feel me in a hot records. 0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:55.720 This deal sprinkled around, you know what I mean, in 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:58.760 the area you at, you want to hear. You're you're 0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:02.640 new artist, your come ups herding, get some shot. He 0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:04.120 brought up a good point. You think the lines are 0:08:04.120 --> 0:08:06.520 blurred now because a lot of artists from up north 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:10.360 do something like Watt from Jersey. He diet Hella play Huh, 0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:13.400 no doubt. But Faddie Watt wasn't broken by this dude 0:08:13.720 --> 0:08:18.120 true did his own hustle. You feel me definitely. I 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:20.720 respect for the roping, his grind. He was described every 0:08:20.840 --> 0:08:23.480 night that it was a Jersey club, New York club. 0:08:23.920 --> 0:08:25.320 Like I didn't even know his name. I just knew 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:26.480 the guy with the one eye, with the record, with 0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:31.520 the good record. It was out every night, the hustle. 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:35.160 It's interesting because everybody lives in New Jersey, like everybody 0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:38.280 in the music industry. Most majority of people, once they 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:40.320 get some money, they even moved to Jersey. And you 0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:43.280 want to at least give respect to the states you 0:08:43.360 --> 0:08:45.800 rest your head in. And I'm not, like I said, 0:08:45.840 --> 0:08:48.360 I'm not giving them no records. I know you're supposed 0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:51.080 to retire you after thirty, Like our knees is bad, 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:58.120 like we played ball, like you ain't hot. So it's 0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:00.959 like we do what we have to do. I ain't 0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:02.800 scared of him, but he ain't going He ain't gonna 0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:07.120 play my records. It don't matter, you feel me on 0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:11.520 You get so much money overseas though, all over passport, 0:09:11.559 --> 0:09:17.000 pipper stamping and passport. So it's like we just want 0:09:17.000 --> 0:09:19.040 to have bring bring a whole the filling back to 0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:22.319 Jersey and let him know, man, everybody is welcome by him. 0:09:22.559 --> 0:09:24.640 Well do you think Jersey doesn't have the same voice 0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:26.480 that it used to have because I remember a period 0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:29.000 of time when it was you know, Queen Latifa was 0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:31.959 noted by nature, it was red man, it was poor 0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.400 righteous teachers. It was all these Jersey the artifacts, lards 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:37.839 of the underground, so many groups from Jersey, and now 0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:40.440 we don't hear so much anymore. Yo. It's like we 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:44.760 never really had a hometown station that was support and 0:09:44.840 --> 0:09:48.000 play anything we put out there. It was like we 0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:50.800 ain't a part of the trying state. Everybody think, Yo, 0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:53.720 The funny thing you go for years, you go all 0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:55.640 across the country. They were like, Yo, where are you 0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:59.920 from from Jersey? Oh, you're from New York. Now we've 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:02.080 and Joy well, you know, we take it were the 0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:05.200 sixth Burrow because we allow to Mecca. Jersey ain't been 0:10:05.200 --> 0:10:07.559 knowing for so long. It's just now it's like we're 0:10:07.559 --> 0:10:10.439 getting our notoriety, and the notoriety that that's coming along 0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:12.800 with it is everybody trying to call to the top. 0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:14.840 So it's just everybody just want to showcase their talent. 0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:16.920 Like but Jersey were here or were making noise, especially 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:19.520 by the music like very very near future. Shout out 0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:22.080 to taxg Homie Riz one H three and Homie NJ 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:24.520 Threat Now I mean and the and these guys will work. 0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:26.079 You should know these guys names. If you're a DJ 0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:28.160 in the area, I mean Taxi will staying outside the 0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:30.480 club with you for thirty minutes with you. Say that 0:10:31.320 --> 0:10:33.720 to promoters. Record. But one thing about Jersey growing up 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:35.959 is is what what we miss and we kind of 0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:37.840 got to get back to it. Is like I remember 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:39.840 as a kid, the only thing I wanted to do 0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:42.240 it at the summertime was going to annoyty By Nature 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:45.560 Pool Park. That's what you wanted to do in Jersey. 0:10:46.000 --> 0:10:50.520 You know, the roller skating rink was then to the thing, 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:52.160 and I said, I think we have to start doing that. 0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:54.920 You start giving back to the community, start allowing them 0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:57.280 to have fun. And now with you two guys together, 0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:59.000 I think it's they can see that it could be 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:01.199 safe for that's exact. I think. I think Jersey just 0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:03.679 got a reputation for so long for being so bad. 0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:05.520 Like you go to jazz, you go to new work, 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:07.800 you're getting killed. Just don't stop it to stop lights 0:11:07.840 --> 0:11:10.280 like that kind of reputation is what probably kept people 0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:16.920 out of It. Wasn't a new or Addison, Elizabeth Irvington, 0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:21.760 it was all of them. Black Newark is is you know, 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:26.120 getting it very gentrified right now? Oh yeah, oh definitely definitely. 0:11:26.360 --> 0:11:28.640 We got the Devil Stadium down there. You know, when 0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:30.480 you gotta have a hockey stadium in the middle of 0:11:30.679 --> 0:11:36.160 no and have all our light skinned friends problem, it's 0:11:36.200 --> 0:11:41.720 a good coming up. It's a good thing. It's a 0:11:41.760 --> 0:11:44.959 good time to invest. Yes, absolutely, how y'all keep the 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:48.880 young boys in line. Listen, when you feed your puppies, 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:52.160 they ain't gonna bite nobody. I hear people say that 0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:56.400 all the time. It's about the economy. Yeah, it's about loyalty. 0:11:56.760 --> 0:12:00.199 Shan shan, showing the kids they matter, you know what 0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:03.400 I mean, someone's concerned about them. They have father's figures 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:08.360 and stuff. It's like you see like they see Yeah. Yeah, 0:12:08.559 --> 0:12:11.079 different in the in the wild, when they kill the 0:12:11.160 --> 0:12:13.600 bulls for the tusk and all that, the little baby 0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:16.720 bulls don't know how to act. They'd be wilding. Moms 0:12:16.720 --> 0:12:19.480 can't keep them in check. So it's the same thing 0:12:19.480 --> 0:12:22.480 in the community. It's like when you take the heads away, 0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:26.040 whether they inconcrated or dead, the little ones running wild 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:30.360 because they ain't getting no training, right, I hope. So 0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:36.920 Blaze on the street level, how do you keep the 0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:38.439 young boys in line? Because you know, I hear a 0:12:38.480 --> 0:12:40.760 lot of politicians I don't say these names in Jersey. 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:43.800 They come to you and they do discuss things with 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:46.160 you about keeping the street safe. So how do you 0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:50.959 keep the young boys in uh? Honestly speaking, uh when 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:53.200 it comes to the pol the political side of things 0:12:53.200 --> 0:12:55.640 that I really don't don't touch on that aspect. I 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:57.800 just know like the type of environment that I know 0:12:58.080 --> 0:12:59.559 that I would want to be in. I would want 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:00.920 my mother to be able to walk down the street 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:03.960 without watching color watching her back getting her pocketbook snatch, 0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:06.040 or this woman been in the community for forty years 0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:08.280 and that she feared for fear for her life or 0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:10.640 her possessions because of the youth is out of control. 0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:13.240 You just gotta you just gotta have individuals held accountable 0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:16.240 for the actions. That's so yeah. And it's and it's 0:13:16.320 --> 0:13:19.200 nonprofits and stuff, brother, you stuff over here. We use 0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:21.920 our political connects. I mean, it was a great thing 0:13:22.000 --> 0:13:25.480 that Rosburrock got voted in this man because we known 0:13:25.520 --> 0:13:27.880 him when he was working at the schools, you know 0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:30.319 what I mean, and really in touch with the community 0:13:30.440 --> 0:13:33.600 and at the twenty four hour peace rallies and all 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:36.319 the stuff what we was doing. So it's beautiful to 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:39.480 have that and the male orange now and brother, you 0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:43.720 sef got the go yb get our youth back. So 0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:46.320 it's programs for that where kids have stuff to do 0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:48.480 after school. When we grew up, we had like flipp City, 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:51.960 we had the civic centers, we had uh the Rams, 0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:56.640 little League football, we had it's all the way basketball everything. 0:13:56.679 --> 0:13:58.720 The kids had something to do all the time from 0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:00.720 when they got out of school. Now it's like all 0:14:00.760 --> 0:14:03.319 those things is shut down. You're seeing the kids walking 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:06.480 around like zombies. Right, So when you got that type 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:08.920 of thing, and there's different territories where you can't cross, 0:14:09.200 --> 0:14:11.480 even if you're not banging, they just go ask where 0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:14.400 you're from. You say the wrong street. You ain't got 0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:16.240 nothing to do with it. Our kids is out there. 0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:18.760 They need to be doing something. So that's what we're 0:14:18.800 --> 0:14:21.600 doing with the different nonprofits and stuff as well. Tell 0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:23.640 them something. Brother, you come in telling about the program, 0:14:23.960 --> 0:14:32.000 so you don't remember from absolutely now. Yeah, we got home. 0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:35.720 Just get our youth back, you know what I'm saying. 0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:39.320 And Um, basically I did fifteen years up state, so 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:42.600 I came home a year ago. So the whole thing is, 0:14:43.520 --> 0:14:46.080 I know everything that we put into the streets because 0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:48.320 a lot of these kids just crack babies, handling babies 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:51.640 and things of that nature. So we can't really fault 0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:54.680 to them without falling ourselves. So we gotta get out 0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:56.640 youth back with just go wi B. You know you're 0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:59.360 down with go why B? And um old boy which 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:02.880 is my long tom brother. He's the he's the forefront 0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:04.160 and the head of it. You know what I'm saying. 0:15:04.240 --> 0:15:05.960 Far as the face of it, and we're doing a 0:15:06.000 --> 0:15:07.840 lot of positive things in the community with the kids 0:15:07.920 --> 0:15:10.360 far as the Honorable Students and different things of that nature. 0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:13.480 And we're in Orange every day or every like like 0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:15.920 three times a week doing something with the kids or whatever. 0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:19.000 But without film Street Dreams, they're gonna see all of this, 0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:21.840 So it's like East Side Story. Then we got Trutch 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:25.480 doing the South Side Story, which is about Supreme. He's 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:28.880 playing Supreme, and we got Street Dreams. So these three 0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:30.880 movies all together, they're gonna be saying from us on 0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:33.920 Netflix real soon. So how did how did the Five 0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:37.120 Ventures help you? Man? What? The Five Venture actually showed 0:15:37.120 --> 0:15:39.800 me how to incorporate, you know, because they had a 0:15:39.840 --> 0:15:43.200 lot of brothers that came home from prison and they 0:15:43.200 --> 0:15:45.400 wanted to incorporate their business because a lot of brothers 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:48.000 we still run a business like we're running on the street. 0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:51.280 So they helped me incorporate. But I learned a lot 0:15:51.320 --> 0:15:54.440 from them because Kat real sharp, So I learned how 0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:57.320 to run an organization. That's when I started my nonprofit 0:15:57.600 --> 0:16:00.560 based off of the Five Venture structure. So you know, 0:16:00.840 --> 0:16:03.080 we come in looked to the five Visions. That's a 0:16:03.080 --> 0:16:05.320 great program, man, if you're just getting out, prevent or something, 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:07.200 they can help you get back on your feet. You 0:16:07.240 --> 0:16:09.080 know what he said with with you know, thinking back, 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:10.480 And it's not just for New York and New Jersey. 0:16:10.560 --> 0:16:13.120 This is for every market in every state and city 0:16:13.320 --> 0:16:16.200 where all this should give back because like you said, 0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:17.520 when I was a kid growing up, there was a 0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:19.600 lot to do and you got to see a lot 0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:22.080 of the artists, whether it was a basketball tournament, you 0:16:22.080 --> 0:16:23.600 know what I mean. And we don't have that no more. 0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:24.880 Like I was thinking the other down. You know, my 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:27.560 son plays in Newark and he plays in this beautiful 0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:30.120 arena that they built down in Newark, and I just 0:16:30.120 --> 0:16:32.000 don't think we use a lot of the stuff that 0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:33.640 they have, like this arena. When I said arena it 0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:38.240 is it looks amazing. It looks like what arena. I 0:16:38.280 --> 0:16:42.840 don't know whatever is Nah, it's some indoor arena na 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:49.040 it got I don't know. It's a new project. But 0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:51.240 some players down there, I'm like, this is so good 0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:53.840 that we need. That's the thing nobody know right that 0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:56.520 we need to start doing things like a celebrity basketball 0:16:56.560 --> 0:16:58.240 games with kids can come down to meet somebody and 0:16:58.280 --> 0:17:00.760 see people from where they're making you know, I mean, 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:02.280 because that's a lot of times you don't see where 0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:04.000 you're from making. You don't see the guy you're next 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:05.840 door neighbormaker, So you think you can't make it, so 0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:08.560 you think you gotta do like rob and still. But 0:17:08.640 --> 0:17:10.520 when you're out and you can see people like you 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:12.439 that's making it, it's like, oh, I could do that. 0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:13.920 I could be a DJ I could be a rapper. 0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:15.480 I could be a doctor, I could be a lawyer, 0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:17.760 I could be a bus driver. I could do whatever 0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:19.560 it can to make it. And that's what we got 0:17:19.640 --> 0:17:23.040 to talk on that sea. Go why be That's what 0:17:23.200 --> 0:17:26.040 we tell them basically, you know, have your own individuality 0:17:26.480 --> 0:17:29.440 because everybody can't be a rapper or athlete. So we 0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:32.080 teach them how to be engineers, how to be how 0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:36.879 to be electricians, plumbers, you know whatever, whatever, regular stuff. 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:38.760 Because you've got four dudes and one is a roof 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:40.359 for one of car, but to one of engineer and 0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:42.120 one of plumber. Then you teach me how to get 0:17:42.160 --> 0:17:45.680 the houses. At thirteen by seventeen eight millionaires by turn. 0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:48.760 They graduate, So it's the simple trades, but they just 0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:50.760 have to have to have a business. Mind with the trade, 0:17:50.800 --> 0:17:53.479 like we teach them to find actual literacy, the difference 0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:55.960 between a common stock and a prefer stock, as well 0:17:56.000 --> 0:17:58.000 as the difference between ass and a liability. Because you 0:17:58.000 --> 0:17:59.679 ask a lot of kids a car, asset a lot 0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:02.240 of ability, you're going to get ambigu with answerably don't 0:18:02.280 --> 0:18:04.560 even know what either of those things. Well, this is 0:18:04.600 --> 0:18:07.879 what we teach you to go hybe information for I 0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:12.720 don't talking to Mike, talking to Mike talk away, Yeah, 0:18:12.760 --> 0:18:14.760 get out, you back down, or if you want to 0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:16.480 know about how we're gonna get out, you back not 0:18:16.640 --> 0:18:18.920 just not just for Gearsy, because we ain't Baltimore win, 0:18:19.000 --> 0:18:21.639 Philly win, Brooklyn win Harlem, and we're on the West, 0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:24.320 so y'all gonna see us real shown and we you know, 0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:27.600 hopefully y'all support. And what are some of the misconceptions 0:18:27.600 --> 0:18:31.120 in New York, man that you really can't go there 0:18:31.119 --> 0:18:33.840 and there's there's no jewels there, like everything is broke, 0:18:33.960 --> 0:18:37.480 torn down, there's nothing to look forward to. But trouble man, 0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:39.560 it's it's a lot of hungry cats out there that 0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:42.560 nowhere near trying to stay on those streets and be 0:18:42.640 --> 0:18:45.600 on those streets looking and chasing dreams and everything else, 0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:48.000 but making it happen. But you don't see that, you 0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:49.760 know what I mean, It's it's a boxing leagues and 0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:51.960 all that down there. You only see on the news 0:18:52.000 --> 0:18:55.040 that all that make you not want to go negativity 0:18:55.080 --> 0:18:57.080 right here has so much stuff to go to nook 0:18:57.160 --> 0:19:00.119 for and and simple to help with just being a 0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:03.560 part of certain certain things that's going on.

Like 0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:49.040 I remember South Mountain Reservation. They used to have the 0:19:49.640 --> 0:19:52.040 cook ass there every year just for the kids and 0:19:52.119 --> 0:19:55.000 everything else. Man, It's it's like it's none of that now. Actually, 0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:58.800
