Speaker 1: Jersey final stretch and only Blizzie. What's the world was
Speaker 1: going on? Unified? Definitely definitely making moves in movies. So Church,
Speaker 1: I see you're on that show Comeback Kings. Yes, yes, indeed,
Speaker 1: and the producer for that executive executive producers. So let's
Speaker 1: talk about that show. And while you decided to join that,
Speaker 1: it's on upn because you're not a Comeback King. You
Speaker 1: you're still on the road. But that's that's that's the
Speaker 1: comical part of it because everyone in Comeback Kings from
Speaker 1: June Bloon from from a Black Rob do it all
Speaker 1: like everybody's still out there doing anything making it happen,
Speaker 1: but we all think we are the top echelon of
Speaker 1: the throwback of our error. Okay, so it's like a
Speaker 1: scripted reality show kind of Kevin Hardish you're feeling, but
Speaker 1: it's HollyHood. Oh yeah, what's going on with you and Blade?
Speaker 1: It seems like it seems like Jersey is uh you
Speaker 1: Unified because this is a BNC thing. But it's also
Speaker 1: seems like y'all trying to do a lot of positive
Speaker 1: things in the community lately. A lot of things, a
Speaker 1: lot of things since like the music faction has been
Speaker 1: on something where you can't really go and blend in
Speaker 1: and get it the way you use if you had
Speaker 1: hot music or been in the game long enough, you
Speaker 1: get respected to go somewhere thorm Son, the group you're
Speaker 1: working with anything else like right on now? So much politics.
Speaker 1: So we got it to the point where what's the
Speaker 1: next hustle because we could go wherever. So it's the movie,
Speaker 1: so it made sense. We didn't. Me and this guy
Speaker 1: has seen each other for years and always it's been
Speaker 1: like pal doing the different parties and have the homies
Speaker 1: where anybody is chilled like a family, you know what
Speaker 1: I in a banging situation, it's like it's all Jersey love.
Speaker 1: So we're like, we gotta capitalize off of this. So
Speaker 1: with this what we're doing, it's just making the streets
Speaker 1: stronger and safer because everybody knows everybody. It's hard to
Speaker 1: break brain with somebody and then have a beef with
Speaker 1: them on the streets. So the little little bucks in
Speaker 1: our pups and anything else they seeing, like meeting up
Speaker 1: with each other, seeing each other. So when they see
Speaker 1: each other, oh no, no, that's the homie. That's the homie.
Speaker 1: So it ain't no where are you from? Where are
Speaker 1: you from? And it's long you feel me? So they
Speaker 1: have a great film east Side Oh my god. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're working on this film called east Side Story. It's
Speaker 1: an urban based story that gives you a reality of
Speaker 1: what you go through. And uh, nor those who can't
Speaker 1: aren't fortunate enough to walk down the street. You know,
Speaker 1: we give it to you raw and uncut, so you know,
Speaker 1: just tune in like we're working hard. Give a little
Speaker 1: background on yourself. Blazer from Knew It, Yeah, yeah, definitely
Speaker 1: definitely Jersey stand Up, No Prince Street Projects, Hayes Home,
Speaker 1: pendit in Court. Uh thirty eight years old, CEO bout
Speaker 1: the music. Just working hard, man, doing what we gotta do. Man,
Speaker 1: Just trying to put Jersey on the map as a
Speaker 1: whole man. A lot of people remember you from the
Speaker 1: video where you told Chief Keith it was a rap.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, we don't do disrespect. We don't do disrespect.
Speaker 1: You can't disrespect the people and didn't come eat, so
Speaker 1: it's like it's one of them things. The record show.
Speaker 1: He hasn't been back since Keith Right now, you gotta
Speaker 1: take Jersey very close to your heart. Yes, about about
Speaker 1: a month two months ago, Fatal Hussein passed away. He's
Speaker 1: from Jersey piece and Tretch called me and he was
Speaker 1: a little concerned. You felt that DJ's in the Tri
Speaker 1: state area, Lawrence showing proper respect to Fata, who's sin
Speaker 1: who passed away. Well, it's like definitely and knowing it's
Speaker 1: certain DJ's that had the power to play what they want.
Speaker 1: You feel me. Certain DJs have to go under the
Speaker 1: protocol which the station is. This is the list, it's
Speaker 1: a set bum So those that always when I hear
Speaker 1: a station, I heard they represent New York, New Jersey, Connecticut.
Speaker 1: So I feel like if somebody is from that area
Speaker 1: and is a legend in the state, they should have
Speaker 1: respect of a tribute like other legends around and try
Speaker 1: state get through respect. You feel me, You come into Jersey,
Speaker 1: you get money, you know what I mean? Says Slick
Speaker 1: Shot throughout years, but always made it to the point
Speaker 1: where you could come because it's certain homies doing parties,
Speaker 1: promotions that come on come and do it. I don't
Speaker 1: do music. I had to. I was forcing to retirement
Speaker 1: because the dudes like this. I don't get extorted by
Speaker 1: nobody on the streets, so I shouldn't have to do
Speaker 1: nothing extra to get no play or anything else. I
Speaker 1: ain't played by those tight rules. So hey, I don't
Speaker 1: do music. I gave all my artists the Independence Day.
Speaker 1: What's that the fourth of July Independence Day. I don't
Speaker 1: have no groups. So if you go out they don't
Speaker 1: throw the homie off the station, then y'all have a
Speaker 1: spot up in there, and I won't be on there
Speaker 1: to tarnish it. But when he went, we put him
Speaker 1: in the dirt and there was no respect to him,
Speaker 1: like that, hommie, you ain't welcome in Jersey no more.
Speaker 1: And saying like that, I said, you won't make another
Speaker 1: dollar in Jersey. So ain't nobody says, oh, he's starting
Speaker 1: in the me up. Yo, don't come to Jersey because
Speaker 1: by the time you finish paying your secret service to
Speaker 1: come in and it's shooting to and anything else, you
Speaker 1: ain't gonna make no dollar. Now. After I spoke to him,
Speaker 1: I respect him a big homie ot bar that said y'all. No,
Speaker 1: 'm ia know you wanna talk to you? Bum boom boom, Sally,
Speaker 1: you know what? All right, call him, call him homie
Speaker 1: boom boom boom, talk on the phone. Bye, I'll see
Speaker 1: you when I see you. We'll have a nice talk.
Speaker 1: By uncle. Ika spoke to him now talking him. I
Speaker 1: see him next week. He goes on the air, I'm
Speaker 1: coming to Jersey. Oh yeah, I'm coming to Symphony Hall,
Speaker 1: future man man. Oh yeah, all right, pump the Magic
Speaker 1: Dragon feeling ad. He came around, He was around, did
Speaker 1: a mix a lot better, making you turn. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: he came through. He came through. No, no, no, I've
Speaker 1: seen bro I seen them. He didn't get out the
Speaker 1: carter smart on his part. Yeah, So you know, and
Speaker 1: you know the sad thing about when I spoke to
Speaker 1: tell them who were talking about? Tell him about? But
Speaker 1: what made it? You know? When I spoke to you that,
Speaker 1: do you know? The sad thing about it is a
Speaker 1: lot of times people don't know the history of what
Speaker 1: happens in New York. And I said, you know, even
Speaker 1: with fatal I said, most of the DJs on radio
Speaker 1: that are of age, we're probably too young to really
Speaker 1: know the outlaws or even no hit him up or
Speaker 1: even knowing a lot of the stuff. And it was
Speaker 1: like it takes a lot of the old gs to
Speaker 1: explain it to these guys, you know. And the thing is,
Speaker 1: it's not just like Jerry standing we wrapped Jersey. Of course,
Speaker 1: it's New York, New Jersey and Connecticut right absolutely. When
Speaker 1: you ever heard of artists from Connecticut get broke by
Speaker 1: this dude that breaks everything? And this is the street
Speaker 1: supposedly it ain't no doping season. Connecticut ain't know doping
Speaker 1: season all throughout the boroughs Yo, when we came up.
Speaker 1: The best part of radio that may radio every place
Speaker 1: you landed, you knew where you was at. If you
Speaker 1: go to the A, you hear that majority of the
Speaker 1: A sprinkle with a little bit of everything else La,
Speaker 1: you hear LA sprinkle with a little bit Midwest, East Coast.
Speaker 1: When you come to the East coast, you know you
Speaker 1: in the East coast of Mecca. Oh dude, then did
Speaker 1: it to a point where it's just whoever he gets
Speaker 1: the most money where he playing is the South was
Speaker 1: doing them good. Termed the whole thing where everybody got
Speaker 1: to switch. They sound and sound like the South I
Speaker 1: love the South, but I want to hear when I'm
Speaker 1: in the South, you feel me in a hot records.
Speaker 1: This deal sprinkled around, you know what I mean, in
Speaker 1: the area you at, you want to hear. You're you're
Speaker 1: new artist, your come ups herding, get some shot. He
Speaker 1: brought up a good point. You think the lines are
Speaker 1: blurred now because a lot of artists from up north
Speaker 1: do something like Watt from Jersey. He diet Hella play Huh,
Speaker 1: no doubt. But Faddie Watt wasn't broken by this dude
Speaker 1: true did his own hustle. You feel me definitely. I
Speaker 1: respect for the roping, his grind. He was described every
Speaker 1: night that it was a Jersey club, New York club.
Speaker 1: Like I didn't even know his name. I just knew
Speaker 1: the guy with the one eye, with the record, with
Speaker 1: the good record. It was out every night, the hustle.
Speaker 1: It's interesting because everybody lives in New Jersey, like everybody
Speaker 1: in the music industry. Most majority of people, once they
Speaker 1: get some money, they even moved to Jersey. And you
Speaker 1: want to at least give respect to the states you
Speaker 1: rest your head in. And I'm not, like I said,
Speaker 1: I'm not giving them no records. I know you're supposed
Speaker 1: to retire you after thirty, Like our knees is bad,
Speaker 1: like we played ball, like you ain't hot. So it's
Speaker 1: like we do what we have to do. I ain't
Speaker 1: scared of him, but he ain't going He ain't gonna
Speaker 1: play my records. It don't matter, you feel me on
Speaker 1: You get so much money overseas though, all over passport,
Speaker 1: pipper stamping and passport. So it's like we just want
Speaker 1: to have bring bring a whole the filling back to
Speaker 1: Jersey and let him know, man, everybody is welcome by him.
Speaker 1: Well do you think Jersey doesn't have the same voice
Speaker 1: that it used to have because I remember a period
Speaker 1: of time when it was you know, Queen Latifa was
Speaker 1: noted by nature, it was red man, it was poor
Speaker 1: righteous teachers. It was all these Jersey the artifacts, lards
Speaker 1: of the underground, so many groups from Jersey, and now
Speaker 1: we don't hear so much anymore. Yo. It's like we
Speaker 1: never really had a hometown station that was support and
Speaker 1: play anything we put out there. It was like we
Speaker 1: ain't a part of the trying state. Everybody think, Yo,
Speaker 1: The funny thing you go for years, you go all
Speaker 1: across the country. They were like, Yo, where are you
Speaker 1: from from Jersey? Oh, you're from New York. Now we've
Speaker 1: and Joy well, you know, we take it were the
Speaker 1: sixth Burrow because we allow to Mecca. Jersey ain't been
Speaker 1: knowing for so long. It's just now it's like we're
Speaker 1: getting our notoriety, and the notoriety that that's coming along
Speaker 1: with it is everybody trying to call to the top.
Speaker 1: So it's just everybody just want to showcase their talent.
Speaker 1: Like but Jersey were here or were making noise, especially
Speaker 1: by the music like very very near future. Shout out
Speaker 1: to taxg Homie Riz one H three and Homie NJ
Speaker 1: Threat Now I mean and the and these guys will work.
Speaker 1: You should know these guys names. If you're a DJ
Speaker 1: in the area, I mean Taxi will staying outside the
Speaker 1: club with you for thirty minutes with you. Say that
Speaker 1: to promoters. Record. But one thing about Jersey growing up
Speaker 1: is is what what we miss and we kind of
Speaker 1: got to get back to it. Is like I remember
Speaker 1: as a kid, the only thing I wanted to do
Speaker 1: it at the summertime was going to annoyty By Nature
Speaker 1: Pool Park. That's what you wanted to do in Jersey.
Speaker 1: You know, the roller skating rink was then to the thing,
Speaker 1: and I said, I think we have to start doing that.
Speaker 1: You start giving back to the community, start allowing them
Speaker 1: to have fun. And now with you two guys together,
Speaker 1: I think it's they can see that it could be
Speaker 1: safe for that's exact. I think. I think Jersey just
Speaker 1: got a reputation for so long for being so bad.
Speaker 1: Like you go to jazz, you go to new work,
Speaker 1: you're getting killed. Just don't stop it to stop lights
Speaker 1: like that kind of reputation is what probably kept people
Speaker 1: out of It. Wasn't a new or Addison, Elizabeth Irvington,
Speaker 1: it was all of them. Black Newark is is you know,
Speaker 1: getting it very gentrified right now? Oh yeah, oh definitely definitely.
Speaker 1: We got the Devil Stadium down there. You know, when
Speaker 1: you gotta have a hockey stadium in the middle of
Speaker 1: no and have all our light skinned friends problem, it's
Speaker 1: a good coming up. It's a good thing. It's a
Speaker 1: good time to invest. Yes, absolutely, how y'all keep the
Speaker 1: young boys in line. Listen, when you feed your puppies,
Speaker 1: they ain't gonna bite nobody. I hear people say that
Speaker 1: all the time. It's about the economy. Yeah, it's about loyalty.
Speaker 1: Shan shan, showing the kids they matter, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, someone's concerned about them. They have father's figures
Speaker 1: and stuff. It's like you see like they see Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: different in the in the wild, when they kill the
Speaker 1: bulls for the tusk and all that, the little baby
Speaker 1: bulls don't know how to act. They'd be wilding. Moms
Speaker 1: can't keep them in check. So it's the same thing
Speaker 1: in the community. It's like when you take the heads away,
Speaker 1: whether they inconcrated or dead, the little ones running wild
Speaker 1: because they ain't getting no training, right, I hope. So
Speaker 1: Blaze on the street level, how do you keep the
Speaker 1: young boys in line? Because you know, I hear a
Speaker 1: lot of politicians I don't say these names in Jersey.
Speaker 1: They come to you and they do discuss things with
Speaker 1: you about keeping the street safe. So how do you
Speaker 1: keep the young boys in uh? Honestly speaking, uh when
Speaker 1: it comes to the pol the political side of things
Speaker 1: that I really don't don't touch on that aspect. I
Speaker 1: just know like the type of environment that I know
Speaker 1: that I would want to be in. I would want
Speaker 1: my mother to be able to walk down the street
Speaker 1: without watching color watching her back getting her pocketbook snatch,
Speaker 1: or this woman been in the community for forty years
Speaker 1: and that she feared for fear for her life or
Speaker 1: her possessions because of the youth is out of control.
Speaker 1: You just gotta you just gotta have individuals held accountable
Speaker 1: for the actions. That's so yeah. And it's and it's
Speaker 1: nonprofits and stuff, brother, you stuff over here. We use
Speaker 1: our political connects. I mean, it was a great thing
Speaker 1: that Rosburrock got voted in this man because we known
Speaker 1: him when he was working at the schools, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, and really in touch with the community
Speaker 1: and at the twenty four hour peace rallies and all
Speaker 1: the stuff what we was doing. So it's beautiful to
Speaker 1: have that and the male orange now and brother, you
Speaker 1: sef got the go yb get our youth back. So
Speaker 1: it's programs for that where kids have stuff to do
Speaker 1: after school. When we grew up, we had like flipp City,
Speaker 1: we had the civic centers, we had uh the Rams,
Speaker 1: little League football, we had it's all the way basketball everything.
Speaker 1: The kids had something to do all the time from
Speaker 1: when they got out of school. Now it's like all
Speaker 1: those things is shut down. You're seeing the kids walking
Speaker 1: around like zombies. Right, So when you got that type
Speaker 1: of thing, and there's different territories where you can't cross,
Speaker 1: even if you're not banging, they just go ask where
Speaker 1: you're from. You say the wrong street. You ain't got
Speaker 1: nothing to do with it. Our kids is out there.
Speaker 1: They need to be doing something. So that's what we're
Speaker 1: doing with the different nonprofits and stuff as well. Tell
Speaker 1: them something. Brother, you come in telling about the program,
Speaker 1: so you don't remember from absolutely now. Yeah, we got home.
Speaker 1: Just get our youth back, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And Um, basically I did fifteen years up state, so
Speaker 1: I came home a year ago. So the whole thing is,
Speaker 1: I know everything that we put into the streets because
Speaker 1: a lot of these kids just crack babies, handling babies
Speaker 1: and things of that nature. So we can't really fault
Speaker 1: to them without falling ourselves. So we gotta get out
Speaker 1: youth back with just go wi B. You know you're
Speaker 1: down with go why B? And um old boy which
Speaker 1: is my long tom brother. He's the he's the forefront
Speaker 1: and the head of it. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Far as the face of it, and we're doing a
Speaker 1: lot of positive things in the community with the kids
Speaker 1: far as the Honorable Students and different things of that nature.
Speaker 1: And we're in Orange every day or every like like
Speaker 1: three times a week doing something with the kids or whatever.
Speaker 1: But without film Street Dreams, they're gonna see all of this,
Speaker 1: So it's like East Side Story. Then we got Trutch
Speaker 1: doing the South Side Story, which is about Supreme. He's
Speaker 1: playing Supreme, and we got Street Dreams. So these three
Speaker 1: movies all together, they're gonna be saying from us on
Speaker 1: Netflix real soon. So how did how did the Five
Speaker 1: Ventures help you? Man? What? The Five Venture actually showed
Speaker 1: me how to incorporate, you know, because they had a
Speaker 1: lot of brothers that came home from prison and they
Speaker 1: wanted to incorporate their business because a lot of brothers
Speaker 1: we still run a business like we're running on the street.
Speaker 1: So they helped me incorporate. But I learned a lot
Speaker 1: from them because Kat real sharp, So I learned how
Speaker 1: to run an organization. That's when I started my nonprofit
Speaker 1: based off of the Five Venture structure. So you know,
Speaker 1: we come in looked to the five Visions. That's a
Speaker 1: great program, man, if you're just getting out, prevent or something,
Speaker 1: they can help you get back on your feet. You
Speaker 1: know what he said with with you know, thinking back,
Speaker 1: And it's not just for New York and New Jersey.
Speaker 1: This is for every market in every state and city
Speaker 1: where all this should give back because like you said,
Speaker 1: when I was a kid growing up, there was a
Speaker 1: lot to do and you got to see a lot
Speaker 1: of the artists, whether it was a basketball tournament, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. And we don't have that no more.
Speaker 1: Like I was thinking the other down. You know, my
Speaker 1: son plays in Newark and he plays in this beautiful
Speaker 1: arena that they built down in Newark, and I just
Speaker 1: don't think we use a lot of the stuff that
Speaker 1: they have, like this arena. When I said arena it
Speaker 1: is it looks amazing. It looks like what arena. I
Speaker 1: don't know whatever is Nah, it's some indoor arena na
Speaker 1: it got I don't know. It's a new project. But
Speaker 1: some players down there, I'm like, this is so good
Speaker 1: that we need. That's the thing nobody know right that
Speaker 1: we need to start doing things like a celebrity basketball
Speaker 1: games with kids can come down to meet somebody and
Speaker 1: see people from where they're making you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: because that's a lot of times you don't see where
Speaker 1: you're from making. You don't see the guy you're next
Speaker 1: door neighbormaker, So you think you can't make it, so
Speaker 1: you think you gotta do like rob and still. But
Speaker 1: when you're out and you can see people like you
Speaker 1: that's making it, it's like, oh, I could do that.
Speaker 1: I could be a DJ I could be a rapper.
Speaker 1: I could be a doctor, I could be a lawyer,
Speaker 1: I could be a bus driver. I could do whatever
Speaker 1: it can to make it. And that's what we got
Speaker 1: to talk on that sea. Go why be That's what
Speaker 1: we tell them basically, you know, have your own individuality
Speaker 1: because everybody can't be a rapper or athlete. So we
Speaker 1: teach them how to be engineers, how to be how
Speaker 1: to be electricians, plumbers, you know whatever, whatever, regular stuff.
Speaker 1: Because you've got four dudes and one is a roof
Speaker 1: for one of car, but to one of engineer and
Speaker 1: one of plumber. Then you teach me how to get
Speaker 1: the houses. At thirteen by seventeen eight millionaires by turn.
Speaker 1: They graduate, So it's the simple trades, but they just
Speaker 1: have to have to have a business. Mind with the trade,
Speaker 1: like we teach them to find actual literacy, the difference
Speaker 1: between a common stock and a prefer stock, as well
Speaker 1: as the difference between ass and a liability. Because you
Speaker 1: ask a lot of kids a car, asset a lot
Speaker 1: of ability, you're going to get ambigu with answerably don't
Speaker 1: even know what either of those things. Well, this is
Speaker 1: what we teach you to go hybe information for I
Speaker 1: don't talking to Mike, talking to Mike talk away, Yeah,
Speaker 1: get out, you back down, or if you want to
Speaker 1: know about how we're gonna get out, you back not
Speaker 1: just not just for Gearsy, because we ain't Baltimore win,
Speaker 1: Philly win, Brooklyn win Harlem, and we're on the West,
Speaker 1: so y'all gonna see us real shown and we you know,
Speaker 1: hopefully y'all support. And what are some of the misconceptions
Speaker 1: in New York, man that you really can't go there
Speaker 1: and there's there's no jewels there, like everything is broke,
Speaker 1: torn down, there's nothing to look forward to. But trouble man,
Speaker 1: it's it's a lot of hungry cats out there that
Speaker 1: nowhere near trying to stay on those streets and be
Speaker 1: on those streets looking and chasing dreams and everything else,
Speaker 1: but making it happen. But you don't see that, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, It's it's a boxing leagues and
Speaker 1: all that down there. You only see on the news
Speaker 1: that all that make you not want to go negativity
Speaker 1: right here has so much stuff to go to nook
Speaker 1: for and and simple to help with just being a
Speaker 1: part of certain certain things that's going on. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: appreciate you guys for joining us. Man. Thanks man. We
Speaker 1: need more talk like this. And I like the fact
Speaker 1: that people can see all together, they see the unity
Speaker 1: of the bes and see together that's big bes and geez.
Speaker 1: Before I want to I just want to respects respect
Speaker 1: you guys, because you guys make sure that people can
Speaker 1: come out to Jersey and can't have a safe time,
Speaker 1: you know, like that when autists come in town and
Speaker 1: you know, and I see all this when they come
Speaker 1: to Jersey, they look a little frightened. They look a
Speaker 1: little nervous a times, you know with Blaze and I
Speaker 1: go with it. If you feel a little nervous, man,
Speaker 1: just come home at your boy man, y'all. Man by
Speaker 1: the music, we hold you down. Man. But I do
Speaker 1: hope that you know we bring back a lot of
Speaker 1: things that used to be in Jersey growing up. Like
Speaker 1: I remember South Mountain Reservation. They used to have the
Speaker 1: cook ass there every year just for the kids and
Speaker 1: everything else. Man, It's it's like it's none of that now. Actually,
Speaker 1: we gotta we gotta peace summit going on in the
Speaker 1: city and Nork supposed to then you center, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a free summit. It's spearheaded by Jim Brown ray
Speaker 1: Lewis from the Baltimore Ravens. I got biz Markie d
Speaker 1: that committed acost my brother truck sitting over here to
Speaker 1: my right. A few of us, you know, may commit
Speaker 1: if I you know, I reach out, you know, to commit.
Speaker 1: But this is what's going on. We're giving back to
Speaker 1: the youth though, and it's a great gesture from our mayor,
Speaker 1: the Honorable rise Burrocker whatever. Uh September tenth. I argue
Speaker 1: exact confirmation already. And they still do jazz, yes, yes, yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: hip hop junkies too, because they've been from the beginning
Speaker 1: of the Chief Keith thing, like they've been giving us
Speaker 1: the coverage and the everything that we needed. My brother,
Speaker 1: you know, the donkey of the day. We make it happy. Man, yeah,
