00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: And later in this conversation we'll get into who celebrated

157
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: corn and who didn't celebrate corn and who should have

158
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: celebrated corn. Right, We'll get into that, But right now,

159
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: I just want to speak more so about you know,

160
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: he was extremely influential, bro, what he put down in

161
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 1: this game. He kind of helped usher in in the

162
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: sound that's literally running rap right now, right right. I

163
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: feel for y'all. My heart goes out to y'all, you know,

164
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: because I just couldn't imagine being in that situation. You know,

165
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: what have you been doing to hold up with this situation? Man?

166
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: For the most part, what I've been doing at and

167
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: I'm fifty five years old, something that I just embarked on. Man,

168
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: I had to raise my hand and give me some help.

169
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: MAST been seeing a therapist, you know what I'm saying.

170
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: It's been very helpful. I didn't know all these years, man,

171
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 1: you know, how we as black. Man, I'm cool. I

172
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: don't need this. I don't need that. But literally had

173
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,199
Speaker 1: to just say, hey, man, this a bit much six

174
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 1: months here, But I still found myself in the same

175
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: position mentally. You know what I'm saying, Wake up, man,

176
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: sometime six thirty seven in the morning. Turn around to

177
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: look at the clock. Man, it's twelve fort They ain't

178
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: even left out the bedroom, went in the hallway, hand

179
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: did nothing. You know what I'm saying, Man, Yeah, depressed?

180
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Like, depression is real, man,

181
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: It's so real and powerful. Very that's but therapy is

182
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 1: also powerful. And like we were speaking about, I think

183
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: that was a great analogies like when someone kidneys are

184
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 1: not flushing, right, your emotional you emotionally tied up, emotionally

185
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: built up? Right, how do you keep from breaking? Though?

186
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 1: I grew up in the church, I got a strong faith, right,

187
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: and when I get down and depressed and shared a

188
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: tear too here and there, I shed a tear of

189
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,719
Speaker 1: getting my feelings because I miss corn in the flesh

190
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: exactly as far as a dad. I did everything I

191
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,719
Speaker 1: could do, man, you follow me. I have no regrets,

192
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: I have no cuddle with the shutters. And I know

193
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: that korn knew how much I loved him. He knew

194
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: how much I wanted what was best for him. You

195
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 1: follow what I'm saying. So a lot of times, Man,

196
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 1: I lean on my faith and I just think about

197
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: heavy is the head? That where's the crown?

198
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 2: Man?

199
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: You follow me, It's a lot, come with it. But

200
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 1: I also feel like God places his toughest battles on

201
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: his toughest soldiers. Man. So I mean like I'm human,

202
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, Man, nothing will

203
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: defeat me, even a passing of my son. You feel

204
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,959
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I know that I'll see him again.

205
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 1: And there are signs Man, While like when my grandson

206
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: went to the prom last week, I ride my bike.

207
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: I generally see like one or two cartinals a week

208
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: while I'm riding. Man, last Friday, I saw five cartinals. Man, Wow,

209
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: And that was just a reminder that Dad, I'm here.

210
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: He's gone in the flesh. But our relationship and our

211
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: bun nobody can never take that away. Man, And you

212
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: are beacon of like the Black Father too though, right,

213
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: just your relationship even I don't even know if we've

214
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: seen like from some of the other rappers that have

215
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: reached their untimely passion. Like we didn't see Nipsey and

216
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: his father have a relationship. We didn't see MORET three

217
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: and his father have a relationship, right, you would dealt

218
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 1: with him, and I think that kind of helped him

219
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 1: when he had to find himself on the journey by itself,

220
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 1: right you know, So you know, I kind of want

221
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 1: to speak about that, Like, did you guys speak every day?

222
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: Me and Korn spoke several times a day. Yeah, so

223
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: y'all were real Yeah, we were real tight. Like the

224
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: day before he passed, bro, Like, I talked to Coin

225
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: ten times, ten eleven times that day. So it wasn't

226
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: anything for us to have a conversation in the morning

227
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: and text throughout the day, called each other throughout the day. So,

228
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 1: like I said, it was one So like we we

229
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: had a bun man. And so you have to realize,

230
00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: like I grew up without my biological father, So that

231
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 1: was something I established at an early age if I

232
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: ever had kids, one question to my kids, ain't gonna

233
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 1: never have And that's what my dad at because I

234
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 1: had that question. Man, you follow me. So it's like

235
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 1: when you when you plant a seed, it's gonna grow.

236
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: And I planted that seed when I was young. Man,

237
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 1: like I'm gonna beat up on my kids. And like

238
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: me and Korn just had a unique bun, Like we

239
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: could look at each other brun no, hey, let's go.

00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,400

257
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,199

00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 3: say the gunman came in the shop and opened fire.

309
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 1: So I heard about three gun shots, and so I

310
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: saw the guy come out.

311
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 3: Van White says he heard the gunshots, saw the gunman

312
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 3: and chased him, but he got away.

313
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: He got in a black car, and that's all I

314
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: know from there.

315
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 3: One barber told me he went to the back, and

316
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 3: another barber said he left the shop. They say that's

317
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 3: when the gunman came in. Workers here told me someone

318
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 3: shot up the shop about a month ago. I talked

319
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 3: to several people who believed the shooting is a result

320
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 3: of Quan feuding or disrespecting other rappers and songs. Police

321
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 3: wouldn't come in on that and say their investigation continues,

322
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 3: But in at least one interview, Rich Homie Kwan repeatedly

323
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 3: said he isn't feuding with one rapper in question.

324
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: I know a distant another disrespect to him as a man.

325
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 3: Man White told me he doesn't care about a feud.

326
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: He says, this is about life. Whatever the case, maybe

327
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 1: they need to stop. Where was that? He wasn't here?

328
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: It was here at my barbershop. They ain't that. It

329
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 1: was at my barbershop, like a Tuesday and Wednesday morning

330
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 1: sitting that just got through cutting two heads and I

331
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: was sitting at the computer. Guy came in and started shooting.

332
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: And he came in. So this wasn't even the drive

333
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,199
Speaker 1: by NOA. I came into the barbershop shooting at you, shooting.

334
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 1: It was just it was I was targeted, what for

335
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:24,879
Speaker 1: something that had nothing to do with me? And it

336
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: came from the wrap industry. I've been at the barbershop

337
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 1: twenty six years. You seen the movie that the Barbershop? Yeah,

338
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 1: same scenario. So is this the same ship Woody were

339
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: talking about on the stand. We're trying to see what

340
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 1: they were talking in regards to was the barbershop being

341
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: shot up. See, that's what I thought. So this is

342
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: true to see that that that's what it ain't dragged

343
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 1: you into this bulls and so it was. It was

344
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 1: two situations. The barbershop got shot up, then some months

345
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:57,679
Speaker 1: later I got shot that that had something that had

346
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: nothing to do with me, of course not. You know,

347
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 1: I was twenty six years in the game at the barbershop.

348
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 1: Never even had to call the police to the barbershop anything,

349
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: you know, like a pill in the community. The barbershop

350
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: has been in our family since nineteen sixty eight. That

351
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: was a year before I was born. So from sixty

352
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: eight to twenty fourteen, that was Lamar's barbershop. Bruh. And

353
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 1: so after that, you just said, I'm done with it.

354
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 1: I didn't want to see it. The family kind of

355
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: like overruted Corn you know, was like because he rich

356
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: rich man. Yeah, and honestly man, like I steal saw

357
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 1: corn Is. I used called him baby Corn. I saw

358
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 1: him as Corn. I never saw him as rich homie.

359
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 1: You know how sometimes you'd be like people be like, boy,

360
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: your son doing it. He doing it, but in your

361
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,679
Speaker 1: mind he's still your son. That's how Mama. So so

362
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: you don't just see what the world. You don't see

363
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,360
Speaker 1: him like that on view him like yes, the same

364
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: way with the mother when they got to killer son,

365
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 1: they don't view him like the gangster. That's my baby,

366
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: what's going on? That's real. So so it was like

367
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't see Corn being as big as

368
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 1: the world saw him because you know, he called me

369
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,159
Speaker 1: dad pop, you know, and like every time he was

370
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: around me, he was Corn. He didn't have to be

371
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: rich homing. So you know that that that kind of

372
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 1: like that got my attention though, you know, after I

373
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 1: got shot man and went through what I went through.

374
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: So at that moment, you thinking my son rapping, But

375
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: it ain't you know, I ain't really looking at it

376
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 1: like yeah, I ain't y'all looking at it like you know,

377
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 1: I'm really staring. I'm over here cutting, I've been doing this.

378
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 1: I'm on my own wave. I ain't trying to retire

379
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:44,719
Speaker 1: from my son, none of that. So but damn, damn bro,

380
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:50,959
Speaker 1: them came in there and targeted you. That's yeah, your father,

381
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: because you got to look at it like this here.

382
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: If it was for Corn, they couldn't get the coin.

383
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 1: So guess what we get to the next closest thing.

384
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,120
Speaker 1: But they nigga don't play. They ain't really cut like that.

385
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: What y'all boys doing? Man? Y'all playing? Because guess what

386
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,080

Speaker 1: ninety five percent of the artists that walk into a

460
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: building where they need the money, yes, you follow me. Yes,

461
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: So when you're in need, they know you need. So

462
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 1: guess what negotia Listen, totally different. Guess what you'll sign

463
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,080
Speaker 1: your life away and don't even know what you're signing that.

464
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So, like we went in

465
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 1: the situation, Man, let's discuss this publishing. Let let's negotiate

466
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 1: where you all don't have to own this, publish publishing

467
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: for a lifetime. Feel and these are very these are

468
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 1: what I call paramount practices. Believe it. This ain't something

469
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: that they should shun out. But again we just spoke

470
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 1: about you know, if they say don't smell smoke and

471
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 1: get him out of the house, get him out, don't

472
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: nobody need to know we burning? Is my point. My point.

473
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 1: So like when somebody like me come along, man that

474
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 1: has got a little sense, man, and like, you can't

475
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,479
Speaker 1: piss on my leg and tell me it's raining, right,

476
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 1: you don't have to show me your pretty cause and

477
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: all that, because that's that's that's temporary. Man. You follow me,

478
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 1: and you know this this rap game, damn there, Like

479
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: you know, being in sports, brother, that window very small.

480
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 1: So guess what, you got to maximize that opportunity, man,

481
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, you know they

482
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 1: gonna go on to the knicks. Man. You follow me.

483
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 1: They being born every day, and you got to realize

484
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 1: the ones that is really pulling the streams and making

485
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 1: stuff happen. Bro, what they care about us saying nothing?

486
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 1: Do you know when coryn passed, I can count on

487
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: one hand how many executives or corporate people call or

488
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,400
Speaker 1: text me to send their condolences. Some talking about from

489
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 1: New York to LA and you know them the two

490
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 1: prominent cities as entertainment. Yeah, and they'd have made a

491
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 1: lot of money off come on man. So so guess

492
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: what folks ain't called me. They don't care non abusing bro.

493
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 1: It's gone on to as what's funked up is that,

494
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 1: and that's why we have to celebrate each other.

495
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 2: And so.

496
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,360
Speaker 1: Even when I see Young Thug, I spoke about this yesterday,

497
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: Young Thug it just did an interview with GQ, and

498
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: I really don't know how to feel about it because

499
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 1: I'm getting calls from in the industry who probably won't

500
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 1: tell Young Thug right, but I'm getting calls from like

501
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:56,639
Speaker 1: big podcasters, they got big deals and shit, and they like,

502
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 1: why would he go and do his first interview with

503
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: a white platform for him? Now, I wrap this back

504
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 1: around to what we're speaking about, which is I would

505
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 1: hope that if there was a black company that made

506
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,120
Speaker 1: the money with QUN that they would treat that differently.

507
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: Believe it. But I'm almost to a point why I'm

508
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 1: not convinced that that will happen because look at Birdman.

509
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 1: Bird Man made a lot of money sposed to had

510
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,919
Speaker 1: had a relationship with rich Homie Quoan. What is your

511
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: feelings about Birdman? Bird is who he is. Man, you

512
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: follow me. At the end of the day, man, you

513
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 1: accept people for who they are, like people be like

514
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 1: how you deal with such and such, how you deal

515
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: with him? He is he that they probably speak about me.

516
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, I look at

517
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,400
Speaker 1: it like, hey, man, when you're old enough to understand

518
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 1: and accept the person for who they are, it's not

519
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: for me to judge. I just know how far to

520
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 1: go with that person. You follow what I'm saying. For

521
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:54,120
Speaker 1: your son, do you think that he should have showed

522
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: up maybe to the funeral? Was the relationship that bird

523
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: bird reached out to them? Okay? He did Listen. The

524
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: day my son passed, he called my phone. He called

525
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,160
Speaker 1: my phone. You know what I'm saying, like, hey, hey, hey, fam,

526
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 1: I'm here. If you need anything, I'm here. You know,

527
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 1: he was very he was he was being positive for me.

528
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Hey, man, Look, I can't

529
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: tell you you know how to feel, but you know,

530
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: keep your head up. I'm him for if you need

531

532
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna call away. So he did reach out, you

533
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. He did reach out to me

534
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 1: and checked on me several times. And it's crazy because

535
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,040

536
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,920

Speaker 1: I want to see you when I come. You know

538
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So you know, like, man, I just

539
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,679
Speaker 1: accept things for what they're all like at the end

540
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,960

Speaker 1: be careful how you acting in this universe because God

566
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 1: has the final say. And my past used to say

567
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 1: all the time when judgement they come, I gotta go

568
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 1: for you, I gotta go for me. We'll stand by

569
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:24,479
Speaker 1: myself with that man for sure, for sure. And if

570
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: God got a record keeper, he used to say, I

571
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: show hope my good I weigh my best, Lord, I

572
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: hope so that that's how I see you know. But

573
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: I want to get back to this shooting man, because

574
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 1: that shit is like blowing my mind, like you know

575
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,959
Speaker 1: what I mean that these guys walked in and hit

576
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: you like that. No one's in there, damn son. But no,

577
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: let's even move past that the rap game being a curse.

578
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: How you feel about the rap game? And if Quorn

579
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: was never a rapper, see, because the universe is so perfect,

580
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's like he's the it's

581
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 1: the base and it's the music. It's like he would

582
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: have probably been successful either way he went, but he

583
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,719
Speaker 1: just happened to go to music six. He raising Coorn.

584
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 1: Corn was one of them kids. He do just enough

585
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 1: to get by. Unless I put my feet down, he

586
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 1: reaches full potential and honestly, man, like I was telling

587
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 1: Monte and goots them. Man. A couple of months ago, Man,

588
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: I remember we used to be over to the house,

589
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 1: you know, having meetings, and started sitting around Corn being

590
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 1: the studio recording and stuff, and I said, we didn't know, man,

591
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 1: we were watching greatness because we took it for granted.

592
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: And I really feel like the rap thing took off

593
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,719
Speaker 1: of him because it was so easy for him, bru

594
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: It didn't require a lot out of him, you know,

595
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: like some of his biggest hits, he was just shelled them.

596
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: Yeah that's old dad. You know rappers, they make so

597
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 1: much music. The last song is the best song. Look

598
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: at it yea, yeah, exactly, so so light with Coorn, Man,

599
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 1: it was like the rap was so easily so you

600
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: think baseball would have took more dedication than the rap.

601
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 1: And that's kind of why rap was. Yeah, that's why

602
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 1: outweighed it all. Was like he he could go in

603
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: and like we would pull up and do verses man

604
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: with people, and man, these folks want to go back

605
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: and redo their verse and Corn like, what, let me

606
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 1: hear the beat? I'll never forget a quick story. Man.

607
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 1: When we were in Miami doing a show, I forgot

608
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: what club? And after the show Birds, I want you

609
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 1: all to come and go back to the studio with me.

610
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:38,600

Speaker 1: of course this isn't about me, but this platform is

649
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 1: like we go viral for real shit. We don't go

650
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 1: viral cause we set ourselves on fire and we did

651
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 1: the ice hot Chip challenge, right, you understand. We go

652
00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: viral for breaking the game down or giving direct leading

653
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 1: away inspiration. Right, So that's a totally different thing. Is

654
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,359
Speaker 1: big and like and like for me to walk in there,

655
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 1: like I've done a few podcasts, I've been with Corn

656
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 1: on several stages. I've never walked in and seen a

657
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 1: one man show.

658
00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 4: Man.

659
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:17,879
Speaker 1: If I had a hat on, I take it off.

660
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: Like that's big for for for a man to be

661
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,360
Speaker 1: like hey, man, like okay, because like when I walk in, like, bro,

Speaker 1: you're by yourself. Yeah, you were like yeah, you know

663
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, and like just to see like you

664
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 1: know when when when people of us man get a

665
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 1: break like you've got, you know, we want to we

666
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 1: want to Butler, we want an assist it. And like

667
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 1: like when I pull it up and you was like,

668
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: I'm coming down. I'm looking for somebody to come down

669
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: and get me. But now it's you in the flesh,

670
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 1: but you. But you know what I see when I

671
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: see that, I see humility man. And I used to

672
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: and my past used to tell me all the time,

673
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: the more God bless you, the more humble you should be.

674
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: You follow me for sure, and I live about it.

675
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: You see what I'm saying. So like when I see

676
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 1: you sitting there kicking anybody yourself, see, I'm a so

677
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna soak the game. I soak it up. I'm

678
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: gonna make some some little changes and I'm gonna do

679
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 1: a work for me as long as i can keep

680
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,799
Speaker 1: my commitment. You feel that, And I'm anything you need

681
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 1: from me. I'm always like and vice versa. You know

682
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, vice versa. Like the first time he spoke,

683
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 1: it wasn't nothing but respect, you know what I'm saying.

684
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: And it was easy to like because I'm thinking when

685
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 1: I get Qawn, because you put the Quorn ship together,

686
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So I'm thinking, like you

687
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: were like, bro, he gonna be there, He'll be here,

688
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 1: be there. And he was there. And I never had

689
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: talked to him before that or not only was talking

690
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:38,200
Speaker 1: to you and him and Monte and showed up and uh,

691
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 1: and it was that was probably one of the only

692
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 1: times I think him little baby. Certain people when I

693
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,839
Speaker 1: sit down with him. Now, people now I got a brand,

694
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 1: so people know what despect. Well, boy, when they first

695
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: was getting it, they because media is kind of corny weirdo.

696
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 1: And so when they first sit with me and we

697
00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 1: get to kick that game, they would light up and

698
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:02,800
Speaker 1: that shit would do something for me. You know what

699
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:06,359
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You've seen enthusiasm, and you've seen the relaxation

700
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 1: of like I critique the interview with Quorn, man, I

701
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 1: critique your interview a little baby, you know what I'm saying.

702
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 1: Like it got to the point where like, well, I've

703
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: been off Instagram, like last three months took me a

704
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: mental break, but it got to the point, bro, like

705
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 1: I want to know who you was gonna do the

706
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 1: next interview with you know what I'm saying, because you

707
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: get to see a different side of them, and then

708
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,719
Speaker 1: you get to see how you dig into them. Bro,

709
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,800
Speaker 1: you show the world things that we want to know,

710
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 1: but we don't have access to ask them uncomfortable questions. Yes,

711
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: like when you told keep it real with me, you

712
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,200
Speaker 1: feel me and you know it took on you know

713
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. That's and he respected that so much.

714
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 1: And then all of the cut scenes that people don't see, like, Bro,

715
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: when we would cut, they would just be like, Bro,

716
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 1: this interview so hard, you know what I'm saying, And

717
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 1: that would make me feel like, man, this is dope

718
00:36:55,960 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 1: that the culture is receiving because we brothers, right, we

719
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:04,839
Speaker 1: all brothers. We come under the guise of the inner city, right,

720
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: and so for me to be able to reach here

721
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: and reach that like, nah, he he operating with some game, y'all.

722
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? You know the thing is

723
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 1: you're gonna respect the game, but you respect the diligence, man,

724
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,320
Speaker 1: You respect the sacrifice and see like me being like

00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 1: it's called exposure, man. I'm exposing them to things, bro,

763
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 1: that they probably never even thought of. And then it

764
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:20,400
Speaker 1: might be a kid to be like, you know what,

765
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 1: because I saw that or I had a chance to

766
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 1: hear about it to learn about it. I want to

767
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: dig into that, right, because that's how it's all one

768
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 1: hand washed the other both washed their face, you know

769
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:33,840
Speaker 1: what I mean? That's that's how it is, so like

770
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 1: me doing this. I look in the game in South

771
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,799
Speaker 1: Charlemagne and Joe Budden's and certain people doing the same,

772
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 1: but they missing this point. That's literally what birth this? Right?

773
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,439
Speaker 1: When you talk about I'm like, yeah, but they ain't

774
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: saying this though? What about this? And then I would

775
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:51,720
Speaker 1: shit back and wait a week ago bout it nobody

776
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,279
Speaker 1: still ain't saying it too. Then it starts are you

777
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,919
Speaker 1: peeping shit that they just ain't peeping because of where

778
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: you come from? Bro, that's real, you know what I mean?

779
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,320
Speaker 1: So then I start ordered to speak on things in

780
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 1: the reaction of like, oh, it's other people feeling like that,

781
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 1: but it ain't other people saying talking about it. A

782
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 1: lot of times like this, just like I don't want

783
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,400
Speaker 1: to get off subject. That's just like what the this

784
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: should do a sounderstand. I'm sitting here looking at certain

785
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 1: interviews and certain people that came from where me and

786
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: you from their head right, they're not even speaking on it. Bro,

787
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 1: you follow me, like, and it's clearly something going on.

788
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: This is sabotage, you know what I mean. It's like

789
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:34,879
Speaker 1: they're trying to capplate the kid.

790
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 4: Man.

791
00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:37,759
Speaker 1: At the end of the day, he young, bro, he

792
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,920
Speaker 1: was born with money, he into money. I get it.

793
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 1: But do you penalize him an X amount brother because

794
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 1: of that? Do you think it's that's what's going on

795
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 1: because they're flat because he's more so flashy young dude,

796
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 1: or is it Dion being his father and Don being

797
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 1: over his back? Like what do you think is causing

798
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 1: Shudir Sanders now to drop out of the draft? Man?

799
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,759
Speaker 1: You know what, it's very disturbing, and you know, like

800
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna put no cap on it. You know,

801
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:10,319
Speaker 1: like it's it's clear cut racal, Bro, you understand. Yeah,

802
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,239
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. Man, the kid got the numbers. Bro,

803
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 1: you understand. It has a lot to do with his

804
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 1: last name. It has a lot to do with his flamboyancy.

805
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,279
Speaker 1: It has a lot to do with his arrogance, you

806
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And at the end of the day,

807
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,800
Speaker 1: guess what, bro, what does that do with his numbers

808
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: on the field? Like, like you got we're in the

809
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,919
Speaker 1: third round now, yeah, third round and he still ain't picked.

810
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,800
Speaker 1: He's probably gonna go undrafted. Bro. Yeah, man, but you

811
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:38,719
Speaker 1: know what that that that just seems like man like.

812
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: But that's like you said that, it definitely feels contrived.

813
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 1: It does not feel like an organic draft happening with

814
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 1: this man falling out of the first and second round.

815
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 1: How it don't make sense. And you know, the second

816
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,320
Speaker 1: round they were saying they're gonna pick some quarterbacks, and

817
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: you had teams like New Orleans Pittsburgh go right past

818
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,160
Speaker 1: you go right past him and need a quarterback. But

819
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: I just feel like, man, the folks say, hey, man, listen, collectively, yeah, collectively,

820
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:08,919
Speaker 1: were moving on, We're moving you know what I'm saying.

821
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,960
Speaker 1: And I really feel like, you know, he young, and

822
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: I hope him, pray he get a shot, man, and

823
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 1: I hope him pray that he used that you know

824
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 1: what he going through to fuel him. And you gotta remember, shit,

825
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:22,759
Speaker 1: Tom Brady was a six round draft pick, right, but

826
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:25,080
Speaker 1: that was based on skill set, and shit, that was

827
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 1: based on numbers. If we're basing this on numbers, he

828
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 1: shouldn't have five times exactly. So also I'm thinking, how

829
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 1: can the league view him dangerous?

830
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 2: Right?

831
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,839
Speaker 1: Because what's the difference between and I don't mean skill set,

832
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:44,320
Speaker 1: what's the difference between his flamboyance and his arrogance and

833
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 1: his style versus his father's when he came out, they

834
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: drafted his father with no problem. So is it the

835
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 1: father figure being there that is? You know what I'm saying,

836
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:57,719
Speaker 1: because what I'm hearing from Stephen A. Smith and other

837
00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 1: people are saying that they believe that. Teams are saying,

838
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:03,719
Speaker 1: I like him, but I don't want to deal with

839
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 1: his father if he's not starting, if he's you know

840
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, trying to tell me how to run

841
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 1: the organization. But they can also be an escapegoat. And

842
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 1: you know what, I really feel like it's an escapegoat

843
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,799
Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, the Young wasn't

844
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: bigger than the NFL. You following that de Young can

845
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 1: speak what he want to speak. I remember Old Man

846
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,280
Speaker 1: told me one day, you know, like it was players

847
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,759
Speaker 1: that got in their feelings and quit. You know, I

848
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 1: ain't got to do this, so just walk off, you know,

849
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,399
Speaker 1: at an early age. And old Man told me years ago.

850
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 1: Make no differen they're still gonna kick off at one

851
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 1: o'clock here Sunday. Man, They're gonna still kick off at

852
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 1: one o'clock every Sunday. You follow that fact and like,

853
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 1: like I have mixed emotions. Could it be Dion or

854
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 1: could it be his arrogance? But you know, at the

855
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:48,319
Speaker 1: end of the day, man, I hope he get a chance. Man.

856
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 1: And it's it's it's really like it's a sad day

857
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:57,399
Speaker 1: for us. Man. Yeah, yeah, like it it ain't even

858
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:01,680
Speaker 1: covered up, man. And you know, like they keep making

859
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 1: a mahri of he had all this jury out, he

860
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: had you know, he had they invited him, he didn't.

861
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,280
Speaker 1: He didn't go. He wanted to do it with his family,

862
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:13,279
Speaker 1: had some all the teams and to see now, man,

863
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 1: we in the third round, and man, that means they

864
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 1: don't pick what sixty to sixty even if he get

865
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:23,400
Speaker 1: drafted now still is a no. It's like a no draft.

866
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying for him and his status,

867
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:29,520
Speaker 1: the damage is done already. Even if someone picks, like

868
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 1: like you said, like like they've they've they've smeared him

869
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 1: so bad and probably messed with his confidence. But he's

870
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 1: trying to And so that's what I appreciate about the

871
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:43,799
Speaker 1: fathers being there, And of course we'll transition back into

872
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: our original conversation, but Dion being there, I'm seeing a man.

873
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 2: This.

874
00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:51,919
Speaker 1: I know he's shatow. I know he's shatterwed, he's he's

875
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: he's damnar broken, he's rattled. His confidence is shooking. I

876
00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 1: know this. But what you see him doing, you know,

877
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: I thank God for everything. You know, God is the greatest.

878
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 1: That's his fast, that's his dadd And you know another

879
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:08,960
Speaker 1: thing you got to realize. You got to realize Dione

880
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,080
Speaker 1: death for his son. Right. But as a dad, den

881
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 1: feel this pain too, man, And y'all saying in my fault, Yeah,

882
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,239
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, like like like like I

883
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,719
Speaker 1: could imagine because see when I look, I'm like, how

884
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 1: would I feel like I'm hurt? You know what I'm saying.

885
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 1: But in front of my son and my other kids,

886
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:30,120
Speaker 1: got means are people around the world. I got to

887
00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 1: put on this son. But then how you think he

888
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 1: like when he goes close his door, he probably lay

889
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 1: up against it though, Like, man, that's what I asked.

890
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:41,320
Speaker 1: That's why because you say you have strong faith. I

891
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 1: think this is a great question. It's like, is there

892
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:48,399
Speaker 1: room for him to like God?

893
00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:49,279
Speaker 5: Like?

894
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 2: What is this?

895
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 1: Like I've been here, I'm with my son. We got

896
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 1: genetics passed down and we know it is proven. We

897
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,279
Speaker 1: put him on the proof mo in grounds and he

898
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,840
Speaker 1: like took two programs to the next level. And they

899
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,439
Speaker 1: telling me it's my fault in this. Like but guess

900
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,359
Speaker 1: what I'm gonna say this, And God knows I don't

901
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,399
Speaker 1: have no prejudice in me at all. Right, But it's

902
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 1: okay for Archie to do it for paying it, man,

903
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 1: but it ain't okay for Dia to do it for

904
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:19,840
Speaker 1: shit do it? And his other son you follow me?

905
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,560
Speaker 1: So so it's like it's like different stereotypes. You feel

906
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, that's the heart light, Like think about it.

907
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 1: Just just think about what what what the Manning legacy

908
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 1: did to the to the NFL. So why the Sanders

909
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 1: legacy couldn't do it? You know why? It wasn't nothing

910
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:35,960
Speaker 1: but to come of our skin, bro, Like let's call

911
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 1: an a you know what I'm saying. You know, like

912
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say like you got to realize, like

913
00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 1: this kid grew up around it and like dr was

914
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:47,399
Speaker 1: who he was and what they say that don't fall

915
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: far from right. So it ain't no this is passed

916
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 1: down at the end of the day, What does that

917
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,760
Speaker 1: have to do with the talent on the field. Nothing

918
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,800
Speaker 1: exactly nothing. And then if you do think dion is

919
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:04,360
Speaker 1: it's nuisance or this person who would be a problem

920
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 1: if you if you draft his son, what do you

921
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 1: think he gonna be if you don't draft his son,

922
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:13,080
Speaker 1: if he is dangerous or powerful or nuisance. I'm really

923
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,239
Speaker 1: gonna be mad if y'all don't draft him. But but

924
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 1: you know what, let's go back. Let's show two scenarios.

925
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 1: See what y'all to understand. Negativity sell in America. If

926
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:27,239
Speaker 1: it's negative about us, they gonna jump on. Let's do

927
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:31,479
Speaker 1: this Travis Hunter number two, draft Pie right, everything should

928
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 1: have been dead aim on him, right, But y'all want

929
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 1: to talk about his daddy getting permission because he's on

930
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:40,640
Speaker 1: probation to a ten. But Dionne ain't never left his

931
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:43,799
Speaker 1: kids side ever, never, I mean being with him from

932
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 1: the time they came up until now. And now now

933
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:51,160
Speaker 1: we want to use one of the largest platforms on

934
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:55,920
Speaker 1: earth to try to tear down this family, the legacy

935
00:47:56,560 --> 00:48:00,120
Speaker 1: trying to build. And they work hard to let how

936
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 1: hard it is come on, man, and then at the

937
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:04,399
Speaker 1: end of the day, you gotta realize at some point

938
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:06,239
Speaker 1: then I got to go back to Colorado.

939
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:06,560
Speaker 2: Man.

940
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I know he damn she ain't trying to

941
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:09,919
Speaker 1: take you to do it with him and give no job,

942
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:13,799
Speaker 1: right you follow me, Man, But it's like that, if

943
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:18,120
Speaker 1: they make him do that, that's come on, no team taking,

944
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:23,080
Speaker 1: no team, no team. Man. And he's somewhat like the

945
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:28,360
Speaker 1: quarterback coach for the Colorado team. Bro, that's gonna be

946
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:32,799
Speaker 1: cutting print. But guess what see you see them them

947
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:36,880
Speaker 1: boys who press them buttons. They already knew the outcome

948
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: with me and music. I was ryding somewhere and my

949
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:40,759
Speaker 1: partner Sid look at this. I said, what a draft?

950
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:41,040
Speaker 4: Come on?

951
00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:44,400
Speaker 1: I've been waiting on the job because honestly, I wanted

952
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:48,239
Speaker 1: to see the young boy's life transform and and I

953
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:52,560
Speaker 1: wanted to see him and his family. And they've done

954
00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 1: all that work, and like he's just been missing. He

955
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:57,440
Speaker 1: don't done the work and done put it in man.

956
00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:01,680
Speaker 1: And then on draft day they on call. Man, I said, ooh,

957
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,640
Speaker 1: this is getting slipper. Man. Look at when when I

958
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:08,520
Speaker 1: looked at one through ten, I started again concerned. Then Man,

959
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:10,520
Speaker 1: I said it was over when he ain't go. When

960
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,200
Speaker 1: he didn't go ten, believe that I said something going

961
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 1: on y'all listen, and I'm immedia. So I go to

962
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 1: calling around like, yo, this is gonna be a big story.

963
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 1: This before I even knew he ain't even gonna get

964
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 1: in the second round, just the top ten was a

965
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:27,440
Speaker 1: story just that, you know what I mean. Yesterday I

966
00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:30,759
Speaker 1: think I was all in the first round. Woke up

967
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,160
Speaker 1: the next day, grabbed my phone. Damn he didn't go

968
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 1: first round, So second round I didn't look. And when

969
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:39,920
Speaker 1: I grabbed my phone, they say he still ain't went.

970
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 1: I say, second round. Then I start looking at it.

971
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 1: Got some more quarterbacks yesterday the second round. I was like, man,

972
00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 1: they ain't studying that dude, and that's fucked up. Man.

973
00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:54,560
Speaker 1: Press family, Yeah, sure, prayers to him, man, keep you out,

974
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,640
Speaker 1: head up, man. One thing about it. What God got

975
00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:58,760
Speaker 1: for you is for you, that's for sure. And again

976
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:03,600
Speaker 1: I do see him trying to like be like unwavering

977
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,040
Speaker 1: and stoic, but I know he broke it. That's a

978
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 1: lot on a kid, that's a lot on a grown man. Man.

979
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:10,600
Speaker 1: You got to realize, Like, like I had to tell

980
00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 1: one of my party break, I said, bring up right here,

981
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:16,000
Speaker 1: young Yeah he young man, think about me? And he

982
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:18,160
Speaker 1: was his age with what we had, we probably worse

983
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:21,399
Speaker 1: than he was. Yeah, and think about this, like we said,

984
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 1: he got presentations at the house in New jer Bro.

985
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:28,239
Speaker 1: That shit cut deep. I don't give it down. So

986
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:35,280
Speaker 1: I interview Brandon Marshall. Okay, so Shakur Sanders didn't didn't

987
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 1: get drafted yet, but Brandon Marshall failed. Brandon Marshall had

988
00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:42,400
Speaker 1: his entire family suit of a draft day party. He

989
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 1: thought he was gonna go top ten. I think he

990
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:47,719
Speaker 1: might have failed to. I don't know what number in

991
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:51,839
Speaker 1: the teens or maybe the twines or something. And man,

992
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:56,440
Speaker 1: he snapped. I mean, and that's what I mean. When

993
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 1: the father, it's the honest, the only reason why this

994
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:03,640
Speaker 1: young man ain't showed emotional Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's the

995
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 1: only reason. Brandon Marshall went up there, whole family downstairs.

996
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,720
Speaker 1: He trying to take it in that it ain't happening.

997
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,040
Speaker 1: He go upstairs, my man, he breaks the break his hand,

998
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:20,360
Speaker 1: break the mirror, crying for days and days because it

999
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:24,839
Speaker 1: hurt him. But but like you said, when when when

1000
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:27,919
Speaker 1: the cameras ain't there, See, that's when that's when being

1001
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,600
Speaker 1: a father step in. Yeah. See, Prian probably pulling that

1002
00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:32,840
Speaker 1: butt to the side. You know what I'm saying, praying

1003
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:35,279
Speaker 1: over him, you know, letting him know, hey, man, this this,

1004
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,640
Speaker 1: this is just a reminder of corporate America. You know, understand,

1005
00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:41,279
Speaker 1: you know so. But but like you said, man, it's

1006
00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,800
Speaker 1: a big difference in them fathers being there and not

1007
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:46,239
Speaker 1: being there, man, because that's the difference. He would have

1008
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:50,120
Speaker 1: been emotionally called out a team said something, you racist?

1009
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:52,600
Speaker 1: What he would have said something because guess what me

1010
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 1: and you that did? Yeah that when I'm telling it

1011
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,960
Speaker 1: wasn't that why listen would have been done, flew the

1012
00:51:58,000 --> 00:51:59,800
Speaker 1: cool would have been done, picked up the phone and

1013
00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:05,240
Speaker 1: car record this over the phone. Man, Yeah, y'all nigga

1014
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:07,600
Speaker 1: trip it man, all ya, I got more yalls than him.

1015
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:09,840
Speaker 1: More it like you start putting his stats side. He

1016
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:13,440
Speaker 1: would have tried to rationally make his argument in public,

1017
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:17,440
Speaker 1: because if you not stoic, bro, and you don't have

1018
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 1: any philosophy, you can be emotionally triggered easily. We just

1019
00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:26,239
Speaker 1: also saw with Shannon Shaw right for him to come

1020
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:28,399
Speaker 1: out and say certain things like oh you they done

1021
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 1: tricked you. You ain't supposed to come out and docks

1022
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:36,080
Speaker 1: the lady and say she like bro, just relax, let

1023
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 1: them people handle it, and then you in media feed

1024
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 1: that ship to somebody else on media. Pass it all, man,

1025
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 1: you in media. But but like you said, it's like

1026
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 1: I was. I was reading up on his situation, like

1027
00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:52,880
Speaker 1: took me by surprise, man. And then not only that,

1028
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:59,280
Speaker 1: but check out how to play go just say, Tuesday shining,

1029
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:03,319
Speaker 1: shut up about the bark on a yeah, and Wednesday here,

00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 1: come on your half. You see how they played the game.

1031
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:09,399
Speaker 1: Don't you see how it's set up. It's like, hey,

1032
00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 1: it's like, okay, her lawyer knew the play, he worked on,

1033
00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:16,719
Speaker 1: so when that start, he knows we're gonna come in

1034
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,560
Speaker 1: and do this and and ruin the whole. I guess what.

1035
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:23,040
Speaker 1: That play probably off the table, off the table. And

1036
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:26,279
Speaker 1: not only did it ruin the future play that was

1037
00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:28,440
Speaker 1: on the table, which is the honey Menion, it also

1038
00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,520
Speaker 1: took me off ESPN. So it's the money up I

Speaker 1: And like when I heard about it, I didn't pay attention.

1063
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,279
Speaker 1: When I read about it, I said, nineteen years. I

1064
00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:47,279
Speaker 1: guess what he'll never recoup from that now because you

1065
00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:50,040
Speaker 1: can't explain the age gap. It tells me that you don't.

1066
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:52,799
Speaker 1: You don't. What what that tells me is that you're

1067
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:58,000
Speaker 1: you're so you're such a slave to your crazy Yeah,

1068
00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:00,399
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And you can never fall

1069
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:03,480
Speaker 1: victim to your cravings, bro, because you're gonna always lead

1070
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:05,800
Speaker 1: you to a bad place. Right because you think I

1071
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:08,200
Speaker 1: don't want to, Bro, you might want to freaking do this,

1072
00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:11,080
Speaker 1: but I got to do it a certain way. That's right.

1073
00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:14,799
Speaker 1: And when you're doing BDSM and you worth something, yo,

1074
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:16,960
Speaker 1: I gotta have history with this girl. I can't just

1075
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,479
Speaker 1: meet it at the gym and thank in my mind

1076
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:22,239
Speaker 1: or I hit the jackpot game and it ain't how

1077
00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:24,719
Speaker 1: this works. Then then you know, like I used to

1078
00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:26,759
Speaker 1: tell a coin man, I tell my baby boy this

1079
00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:32,040
Speaker 1: all the time. Understand this, man, decisions that you make

1080
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:36,560
Speaker 1: don't only affect you, man. Think about it. If you're

1081
00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:40,759
Speaker 1: looking out for family members, Bro, I ain't telling my money.

1082
00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:42,600
Speaker 1: They may have been working with you, they could have

1083
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:46,480
Speaker 1: been employed. You feel me actually doing actually working for

1084
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 1: the money, not seeing you giving it to us. But

1085
00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:52,120
Speaker 1: but but let's say say he got kids. Imagine the

1086
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:54,840
Speaker 1: impact that the kids have to deal with because of

1087
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:57,320
Speaker 1: these type of decisions. Yes, and now, man, when you

1088
00:55:57,440 --> 00:55:59,239
Speaker 1: look at it, you just be my man. I'm like,

1089
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:03,880
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and for real craziness. But

1090
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:10,160
Speaker 1: let's get back to Corn though. What when Quorn passes financially,

1091
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:14,080
Speaker 1: where is he at and how moving forward do the

1092
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:17,640
Speaker 1: family do you guys distribute the funds? Is there like

1093
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,880
Speaker 1: a trust that the kids pulled from? What is the

1094
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 1: scenario for Corn in it's a stake. When Corn passed, man,

1095
00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:28,359
Speaker 1: Corn was in great financial shape. Like I don't play

1096
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,279
Speaker 1: the radio with the money, man, right, you feel me?

1097
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:34,440
Speaker 1: Real structure, real discipline. O. Corn had good lord, have

1098
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:36,600
Speaker 1: mercy money what I call it? You feel what I'm saying.

1099
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:41,440
Speaker 1: As far as his finances, man, I know what Corn

1100
00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:44,640
Speaker 1: would want, and Corn would say, Dad, make sure my

1101
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:50,800
Speaker 1: kids straight. You follow me. The numeroal number one priorty

1102
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:54,160
Speaker 1: in my life, man, is to carry out what Corn

1103
00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:57,160
Speaker 1: would want for his kids. Man, which are my grandkids?

1104
00:56:57,200 --> 00:56:59,960
Speaker 1: And follow me? Make sure they have trust, make sure

1105
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:04,080
Speaker 1: they have education funds. Make sure they understand you know

1106
00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:07,360
Speaker 1: what they're about to embark upon. Make sure that you know,

1107
00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:10,719
Speaker 1: hopefully they go to school, continue their education. But as

1108
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:14,160
Speaker 1: far as like the finances and stuff, man, his kids

1109
00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:17,440
Speaker 1: are going to be in a great situation, great situation, right,

1110
00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:22,120
Speaker 1: and so we saw also RP take off the un

1111
00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,800
Speaker 1: times the demise of him. But his shit kind of

1112
00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:28,040
Speaker 1: went into a probate or he didn't have a living will,

1113
00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:30,720
Speaker 1: did Quorn have one? Didn't have a living will either,

1114
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:33,880
Speaker 1: But the way we had things structured is not going

1115
00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 1: to be as difficult as a task because at the

1116
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:39,480
Speaker 1: end of the day, it's for the kids.

1117
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:39,760
Speaker 2: Man.

1118
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Corn had five kids, man,

1119
00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:44,479
Speaker 1: Kwan didn't have a wife, he didn't have a will,

1120
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,600
Speaker 1: he didn't have anything in righting. Okay, but the reality

1121
00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:51,000
Speaker 1: is his kids are his next a king and they'll

1122
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:54,320
Speaker 1: all makes sense. They'll make say, yeah, they're his next

1123
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,440
Speaker 1: a king. That makes sense. And Koran has kids from

1124
00:57:57,480 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 1: seventeen to four years old, right, so he wanted a

1125
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:03,480
Speaker 1: couple of them should be getting old enough soon to

1126
00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:07,160
Speaker 1: be able to kind of wreak some of the benefits

1127
00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 1: from what they father left them. You know what I mean,

1128
00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 1: as far as the education or whatever you have going

1129
00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:16,200
Speaker 1: for him, no doubt. But damn man, so did the

1130
00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:18,520
Speaker 1: state get involved with that? Does the state get to

1131
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:21,919
Speaker 1: take in because what I've heard about takeoff, what I've

1132
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:25,440
Speaker 1: read in reports online is that because he didn't have

1133
00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:28,640
Speaker 1: a living will, I think millions of dollars ended up

1134
00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:32,080
Speaker 1: routed to the state just out of some kind of

1135
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:35,040
Speaker 1: It was a percentage number, but because he was worth

1136
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:38,000
Speaker 1: so much that percentage, it wasn't a cap on the number, right.

1137
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:40,480
Speaker 1: So you would think if they say fifty percent, but

1138
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:43,000
Speaker 1: you're getting twenty five hundred, so send us to twelve fifty.

1139
00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:46,160
Speaker 1: That's one thing. But if they say fifty percent and

1140
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 1: the numbers twenty two million, you wouldn't think that the

1141
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:52,400
Speaker 1: state to take. Yeah, I don't let me tell you this,

1142
00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 1: and I'll be very honest and transparent. This is my

1143
00:58:56,160 --> 00:58:59,440
Speaker 1: first time dealing with the probate court system. I'm learning

1144
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:02,960
Speaker 1: as I go. You follow me. I have counsel that

1145
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:06,920
Speaker 1: is expertise in this field, so I trust in them

1146
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:09,280
Speaker 1: to lead me and give me the best advice. But

1147
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:12,800
Speaker 1: one thing I can say, man like I took for granted,

1148
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:14,439
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, I'll keep it a buck.

1149
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:18,160
Speaker 1: Man Like, I thought my son would be burying me. Man,

1150
00:59:18,560 --> 00:59:21,280
Speaker 1: you follow me. I never thought i'd see the day

1151
00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:25,480
Speaker 1: that I'd be burying my son. Just keeping it real, man,

1152
00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:29,280
Speaker 1: I thought I had time you follow me and realized

1153
00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:31,360
Speaker 1: didn't have to have a lot of things in order.

1154
00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:36,680
Speaker 1: But through my son's transitioning, which I like to call it,

1155
00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:39,960
Speaker 1: I realized me, I got a lot of loose things

1156
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:42,160
Speaker 1: I need to tighten up too. Man, you follow me,

1157
00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 1: so things could have been tighter, but they're not bad.

1158
00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:49,360
Speaker 1: You feel what I'm saying. And I know Quorn's main

1159
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 1: part would be the kids and rest assure the kids

1160
00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:55,080
Speaker 1: gonna be good, and that's the number one. That's the

1161
00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:59,520
Speaker 1: number one for him, Like I know, like he want

1162
00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:01,640
Speaker 1: to make sure they straight. And I think the things

1163
01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:05,600
Speaker 1: that we're putting in place going through the COURTZ gonna

1164
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:08,320
Speaker 1: benefit the kids. And hopefully, man make him smile out

1165
01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:11,800
Speaker 1: and say, pop, y'all did for sure show that's dope.

1166
01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:16,560
Speaker 1: That's dope. I think with younger men and even with

1167
01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 1: black men, really men, nobody really wants to face the

1168
01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:23,000
Speaker 1: mortality like and think about that death and how the

1169
01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:26,120
Speaker 1: casket needs to be or how to finance and people

1170
01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:27,600
Speaker 1: just like I don't want to talk about no depth.

1171
01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:30,440
Speaker 1: It's like how niggas used to treat cancer or like

1172
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:34,080
Speaker 1: a nigga get a bump on their hand and man, man,

1173
01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:36,120
Speaker 1: them over there. You know what I mean. It's like

1174
01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:39,840
Speaker 1: they don't want to approach your head on. And that's

1175
01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 1: a critical mistake because you can be given, literally giving

1176
01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:45,640
Speaker 1: away half of what you worked all your life. And

1177
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:50,680
Speaker 1: you know, I say this, man to not only entertainers, rappers, actors,

1178
01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:54,280
Speaker 1: just every day people. Man, take time, man to get

1179
01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:57,240
Speaker 1: your business in order. Man. Right now, I'm in the

1180
01:00:57,320 --> 01:01:00,000
Speaker 1: process of doing a trust. You know what I'm saying,

1181
01:01:00,480 --> 01:01:04,720
Speaker 1: a lot of times, Man, we don't be educated to

1182
01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:08,080
Speaker 1: these things. You follow what I'm saying, and you know,

1183
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:12,280
Speaker 1: like sometimes like it takes things of this nature, you know,

1184
01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:14,360
Speaker 1: in order for you to get yourself together, because like

1185
01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:16,280
Speaker 1: I heard the trust, but even at fifty five, I

1186
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:18,480
Speaker 1: hadn't really looked into that. If I felt like I

1187
01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:20,840
Speaker 1: got now, I felt like I had a wheel, everything

1188
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,680
Speaker 1: was cool. But na man, like a trust would make

1189
01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:26,400
Speaker 1: things so much easier and the transition would be so

1190
01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:29,720
Speaker 1: smooth for the family. And you know, it's just we

1191
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:32,360
Speaker 1: need to be educated on these things, man, because if

1192
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:36,040
Speaker 1: you ain't careful, like you said, brother, half or more

1193
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:39,960
Speaker 1: more of what you wait all your life will go back.

1194
01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:42,160
Speaker 1: I read an article one time. I don't know how

1195
01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:43,760
Speaker 1: true it is, and I'm gonna share it with you.

1196
01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:50,600
Speaker 1: When Prince passed, they said that this man had had

1197
01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:57,160
Speaker 1: a compound thirty six people to thirty eight people that daily. Supposedly,

1198
01:01:57,280 --> 01:02:02,760
Speaker 1: and surprisingly the day he passed, he was there alan Supposedly, man,

1199
01:02:02,840 --> 01:02:06,960
Speaker 1: he had won a lawsuit for so many millions of

1200
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:11,520
Speaker 1: dollars and got his publishing back right from from Sony.

1201
01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:14,840
Speaker 1: We'll come to find out Sony had a one billion

1202
01:02:14,920 --> 01:02:18,000
Speaker 1: dollar insurance policy on him. Bro, that's the thing he

1203
01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:20,880
Speaker 1: wake up dead. Look, they get all the publishing back

1204
01:02:21,160 --> 01:02:25,040
Speaker 1: and the billion dollar policy. Man. That what I'm saying.

1205
01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:27,840
Speaker 1: Brou De rap nigga. Sometimes don't be knowing your label

1206
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:33,840
Speaker 1: might have a hit on you. That's how this spade

1207
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:36,600
Speaker 1: or spade. Sometimes you be worth more to somebody in

1208
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:39,280
Speaker 1: depth than you are alive. You know what I'm saying.

1209
01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 1: But I guess what we be so caught up in

1210
01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:44,400

Speaker 1: but I know, but certain things I never saw him do.

1259
01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:20,720

Speaker 1: we know what Corn deserved. Corn's homegoing wasn't for flash

Speaker 1: turnout at the funeral, did you feel like that enough

1398
01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:36,840
Speaker 1: of the industry, the enough enough of the rappers and

1399
01:13:36,920 --> 01:13:38,920
Speaker 1: stuff supported Coorn like they shouldn't?

1400
01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:39,600
Speaker 2: No?

1401
01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:43,720
Speaker 1: I mean afterwards I paid attention to it, but that day, Bro,

1402
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:47,200
Speaker 1: I was so out of it it didn't matter. And honestly,

1403
01:13:48,400 --> 01:13:51,559
Speaker 1: when I made the announcement that we were going public

1404
01:13:51,800 --> 01:13:55,200
Speaker 1: with the funeral, it wasn't for the industry, man, It

1405
01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:59,240
Speaker 1: was for those fans, man, that allowed my son to

1406
01:13:59,439 --> 01:14:04,360
Speaker 1: be in places and spaces only he would have dreamed

1407
01:14:04,400 --> 01:14:04,760
Speaker 1: of being.

1408
01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:05,240
Speaker 4: Right.

1409
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:09,360
Speaker 1: I have a big heart toward the fans. Man. I

1410
01:14:09,439 --> 01:14:13,280
Speaker 1: don't get into the industry. Cats you follow me because

1411
01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:16,760
Speaker 1: it ain't like if it was somebody I was cool with.

1412
01:14:16,920 --> 01:14:18,640
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. But see that's part of

1413
01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:22,599
Speaker 1: what had corned in the dog space. It's this industry

1414
01:14:22,760 --> 01:14:26,559
Speaker 1: and them, not them. Not when he was piping hot,

1415
01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:30,200
Speaker 1: niggas was hitting him and he'll come right. He would

1416
01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:33,040
Speaker 1: come and always service some or help him when he could.

1417
01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:37,240
Speaker 1: He did talk to me about he had a time

1418
01:14:37,320 --> 01:14:39,360
Speaker 1: where he kind of did get an arrogant bag and

1419
01:14:39,439 --> 01:14:42,320
Speaker 1: we were like, y'all, nigga ain't. But for the most part,

1420
01:14:42,439 --> 01:14:45,280
Speaker 1: Bro would help other rappers. And so when I speak

1421
01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:48,840
Speaker 1: about the industry, it just also echoes the fact that

1422
01:14:48,960 --> 01:14:52,720
Speaker 1: it's just so fake in this industry, Bro, where I

1423
01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:55,559
Speaker 1: can give you a hit five years ago, and then

1424
01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:58,519
Speaker 1: because we ma ain't talking eighteen months, you won't even

1425
01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:01,000
Speaker 1: check into my front runer. Right. My point that you know,

1426
01:15:01,040 --> 01:15:04,120
Speaker 1: it's a scenario where is like loan if you and

1427
01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:06,519
Speaker 1: Mike going through it, that ain't got nothing to do

1428
01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:09,880
Speaker 1: with Cory and Mike. Ma'am understand that. But but but

1429
01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:13,160
Speaker 1: me being the man I am, I'm gonna come in

1430
01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:16,360
Speaker 1: and try to help you and fix it instead of

1431
01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:18,800
Speaker 1: put few on it. You fell. What I'm saying, we

1432
01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:20,120
Speaker 1: got enough of that going on?

1433
01:15:20,479 --> 01:15:20,960
Speaker 2: What what? What?

1434
01:15:21,120 --> 01:15:21,160
Speaker 5: What?

1435
01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:23,639
Speaker 1: Where are the people that say, hey, man, let's sit

1436
01:15:23,760 --> 01:15:26,240
Speaker 1: these brothers down and and and you know, you know

1437
01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:29,160
Speaker 1: what the elephant in the room be Man, when we're

1438
01:15:29,280 --> 01:15:32,160
Speaker 1: doing that, we leave so many bags on the table. Man,

1439
01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:37,280
Speaker 1: follow because of attitude, because of arrogance. You know, like, Bro,

1440
01:15:37,760 --> 01:15:39,840
Speaker 1: you don't never sit down and think about where you

1441
01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:42,720
Speaker 1: came from. You don't think about when you ain't have

1442
01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 1: what you all to pot the piece in or wanted

1443
01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:47,639
Speaker 1: to throw it out, and man, when you can late

1444
01:15:48,160 --> 01:15:51,759
Speaker 1: I use example like this here. Man, I never met Kobe,

1445
01:15:51,840 --> 01:15:55,080
Speaker 1: I never met Shaq. Rest in peace Kobe. From what

1446
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:59,200
Speaker 1: I understand, they didn't get along. But they want championships together, man,

1447
01:15:59,400 --> 01:16:03,160
Speaker 1: or have me. They want championship together. Man. And at

1448
01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:08,639
Speaker 1: the end of the day, where does the when does

1449
01:16:08,680 --> 01:16:12,120
Speaker 1: the division stop? So you basically what you're saying is

1450
01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:14,679
Speaker 1: you believe because of the thug and quair and ship

1451
01:16:14,800 --> 01:16:18,839
Speaker 1: it affected how it affected corner. Industry, it affected corner.

1452
01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:22,720
Speaker 1: I can only speak on corn. Corn wouldn't talk to

1453
01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:26,160
Speaker 1: me about it. But I know my son, Bro, it

1454
01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:32,240
Speaker 1: had a profound effect on his everyday life. Man, I

1455
01:16:32,400 --> 01:16:35,200
Speaker 1: know it did. Like like, let's let's call an as

1456
01:16:35,240 --> 01:16:40,080
Speaker 1: a center spade a spade. Let's not you know, let's

1457
01:16:40,120 --> 01:16:47,160
Speaker 1: not play like sugar Colton. Nobody learned from there. At

1458
01:16:47,160 --> 01:16:50,479
Speaker 1: the end of the day, I lost a son, Bro,

1459
01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:55,840
Speaker 1: these kids lost a father, This mother lost a son,

1460
01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:59,920
Speaker 1: this brother lost a brother, This uncle lost a nephew. Man,

1461
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:04,320
Speaker 1: you follow me. So sometime I'd be like, man, I

1462
01:17:04,439 --> 01:17:06,760
Speaker 1: wish she would have just went on with something else, man,

1463
01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:09,680
Speaker 1: because you know what, there's a mean industry where it's

1464
01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:12,120
Speaker 1: like one day they praised you and the next day

1465
01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:15,280
Speaker 1: you ain't nothing. Because I'm telling you, man, And that's

1466
01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:21,840
Speaker 1: part of success is backside, is that it'll take you

1467
01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:24,519
Speaker 1: so far up that when it decides to drop you,

1468
01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:27,679
Speaker 1: it's a long way down, you know what I'm saying.

1469
01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:30,240
Speaker 1: So if you fall off a couch, you may not

1470
01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:32,280
Speaker 1: break nothing, but if you fall off a building, you

1471
01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:36,000
Speaker 1: may die. So as high as the industry brings you up.

01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:45,160
Speaker 1: that he had two twins. Didn't even know they were his. Wow,

1656
01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:49,679
Speaker 1: went outside one day. That just hollered, he said, pertaining

1657
01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:53,720
Speaker 1: to his son. And the test results came back them

1658
01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:57,479
Speaker 1: two twins was his. That's crazy. But like you say, God,

1659
01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:00,400
Speaker 1: that that that that that rings true. You know what

1660
01:28:00,439 --> 01:28:04,080
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But I wonder It's like I mean, I

1661
01:28:04,160 --> 01:28:08,120
Speaker 1: guess time and and and I just don't know how

1662
01:28:08,600 --> 01:28:11,280
Speaker 1: I don't have the words to make it through that

1663
01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:15,599
Speaker 1: stuff you never have, you know, and even through therapy. Man,

1664
01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:20,080
Speaker 1: just keeping it the buck with you. And it's still

1665
01:28:20,120 --> 01:28:23,840
Speaker 1: a fear that I have, I'll be honest, one of

1666
01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:28,800
Speaker 1: my biggest fears now. Man. For me, it's more than

1667
01:28:28,840 --> 01:28:34,680
Speaker 1: myself to death. Man, I'm just being honest. I'm transparent man.

1668
01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:45,080
Speaker 1: That like, Bro, Like, how do you move on with

1669
01:28:45,200 --> 01:28:48,280
Speaker 1: something you've been attached to for thirty four years? And

1670
01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:51,400
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about no no, no dropping And Dad,

1671
01:28:51,800 --> 01:28:55,080
Speaker 1: I've been with Corn from his birth room to the graveyard. Man,

1672
01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:58,960
Speaker 1: you feel me, like, Bro, We've had our ups and downs.

1673
01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:03,160
Speaker 1: We guess what it's my son. Yeah, I got texts

1674
01:29:03,200 --> 01:29:07,920
Speaker 1: I read probably two three times a month. And and

1675
01:29:08,080 --> 01:29:13,759
Speaker 1: and my my my suffering and my grief is different

1676
01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:19,120
Speaker 1: because I can play a song and hear my son

1677
01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:22,960
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, or you can cut up.

1678
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:26,120
Speaker 1: That's why I took a break from Instagram. People were

1679
01:29:26,120 --> 01:29:28,640
Speaker 1: showing me so much love and I'm grateful for that,

1680
01:29:29,320 --> 01:29:34,160
Speaker 1: but it but it slows down my heeling process. And

1681
01:29:34,680 --> 01:29:38,760
Speaker 1: not only are me and my family hurting, whereas people

1682
01:29:38,800 --> 01:29:43,560
Speaker 1: across the United States hurting because of my son's transition.

1683
01:29:44,200 --> 01:29:45,120

01:29:58,800 --> 01:30:01,240

01:30:34,640 --> 01:30:38,479
Speaker 1: don't know what to do. But doing them times man

1698
01:30:38,720 --> 01:30:45,960
Speaker 1: like God stepped in and he reminds me that coins

1699
01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:49,519
Speaker 1: time down here was complete. Man, his job was done.

1700
01:30:50,920 --> 01:30:53,479
Speaker 1: And they go back to a sermon I heard years ago.

1701
01:30:53,760 --> 01:30:57,160
Speaker 1: It's a palazer here, ain't Timothy Fleming? His son got

1702
01:30:57,280 --> 01:31:00,960
Speaker 1: killed in a car accident. You know what the sun

1703
01:31:01,040 --> 01:31:03,040
Speaker 1: he preached the sermon. You know what the sermon was?

1704
01:31:03,240 --> 01:31:09,400
Speaker 1: What now I know how God feels losing his son.

1705
01:31:10,120 --> 01:31:14,439
Speaker 1: And now I know, man, And not only that, I

1706
01:31:14,520 --> 01:31:17,759
Speaker 1: got a brother that was traveling with corn and stuff.

1707
01:31:19,040 --> 01:31:22,920
Speaker 1: I lost him eighteen months for Corn pass Damn my

1708
01:31:23,080 --> 01:31:28,320
Speaker 1: baby brother. Yeah, so it's like damn. It's like yeah,

1709
01:31:28,360 --> 01:31:31,080
Speaker 1: it's like RP to meat man, Like I raised him

1710
01:31:31,120 --> 01:31:34,880
Speaker 1: as my son when Corn first started, I put him

1711
01:31:34,960 --> 01:31:37,760
Speaker 1: with corn. He was my eyes for me, feel me,

1712
01:31:38,120 --> 01:31:38,960
Speaker 1: he was my eyes.

1713
01:31:39,880 --> 01:31:40,479
Speaker 2: I know he.

1714
01:31:40,800 --> 01:31:44,120
Speaker 1: Genuinely loved his nephew, and his nephew loved him. You

1715
01:31:44,240 --> 01:31:48,640
Speaker 1: follow what I'm saying. So I lost him. Then my

1716
01:31:48,880 --> 01:31:55,280
Speaker 1: middle brother had a massive stroke before, probably a month

1717
01:31:55,439 --> 01:32:00,240
Speaker 1: or so before my baby brother passed. And the year

1718
01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:02,720
Speaker 1: and a half later, I lose my son. And that's

1719
01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:05,160
Speaker 1: what you mean by mourning yourself to death. And this

1720
01:32:05,280 --> 01:32:08,960
Speaker 1: is a very important conversation, bro, because you a lot

1721
01:32:09,040 --> 01:32:12,240
Speaker 1: of people, you know, they say death come in through reason,

1722
01:32:12,320 --> 01:32:14,760
Speaker 1: all these different things. So what happens is you can

1723
01:32:14,840 --> 01:32:18,920
Speaker 1: find yourself in their feedback loop of just sad, sad,

1724
01:32:19,240 --> 01:32:24,240
Speaker 1: sad sad. You got to intentionally put some happy in. Now,

1725
01:32:24,439 --> 01:32:27,320
Speaker 1: there you go, but then what is happy? Now? Now?

1726
01:32:27,400 --> 01:32:30,280
Speaker 1: I got to redefined happy and then you know what,

1727
01:32:30,439 --> 01:32:34,200
Speaker 1: like right now in my life. Happiness or a smile

1728
01:32:34,360 --> 01:32:38,000
Speaker 1: is temporary right now, man, you follow me, I need

1729
01:32:38,120 --> 01:32:40,800
Speaker 1: to learn how to get back to some permanency. You

1730
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:45,880
Speaker 1: feel it's temporary right now because I'm always reminded that.

1731
01:32:46,840 --> 01:32:49,719
Speaker 1: You know, me and Coryn used to say we always

1732
01:32:49,760 --> 01:32:54,800
Speaker 1: got so we all we got and he gone, right,

1733
01:32:54,960 --> 01:32:57,960
Speaker 1: what do we get? What do I gat? Now? You

1734
01:32:58,040 --> 01:33:01,680
Speaker 1: feel so? But but I think it's about perspective. So

1735
01:33:02,240 --> 01:33:04,200
Speaker 1: and it's gonna take time. It ain't something you're gonna

1736
01:33:04,200 --> 01:33:06,080
Speaker 1: be able to do. Just like all right, I'm changing

1737
01:33:06,160 --> 01:33:11,320
Speaker 1: how I'm viewing this, But at some point the rubber

1738
01:33:11,400 --> 01:33:14,000
Speaker 1: has to meet the role where we go from missing

1739
01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:18,240
Speaker 1: him to celebrate right where It's like when I do

1740
01:33:18,439 --> 01:33:21,200
Speaker 1: get a tag from a fan, it don't hit me

1741
01:33:21,280 --> 01:33:24,920
Speaker 1: while I make me missing, it makes me remember celebrate

1742
01:33:25,560 --> 01:33:28,880
Speaker 1: that he done that. We done that, leader salute, We

1743
01:33:29,120 --> 01:33:32,040
Speaker 1: done that, you know. But that's gonna take time. But

1744
01:33:32,360 --> 01:33:35,920
Speaker 1: you have to be intentional with trying to like curve that,

1745
01:33:36,760 --> 01:33:38,720
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Mother, got to curve that

1746
01:33:38,840 --> 01:33:41,439
Speaker 1: because you're gonna have an emotion when you see him

1747
01:33:41,560 --> 01:33:44,759
Speaker 1: for the rest of your life. But you gotta choose

1748
01:33:44,880 --> 01:33:48,320
Speaker 1: which path do I need to go with this or

1749
01:33:48,439 --> 01:33:51,640
Speaker 1: can I dictate it right now? It's too strong, it's overpowered.

1750
01:33:52,080 --> 01:33:54,479
Speaker 1: I can't even dictate it the other way, but any

1751
01:33:54,479 --> 01:33:57,679
Speaker 1: of it. When I get that opportunity to start seeing

1752
01:33:57,800 --> 01:34:02,559
Speaker 1: my son and instead of mourning, didn't him celebrating Because

1753
01:34:02,640 --> 01:34:05,080
Speaker 1: God does have a final sake, you know what I'm saying,

1754
01:34:05,120 --> 01:34:07,080
Speaker 1: you know, Like, and one of the things, like I think,

1755
01:34:07,120 --> 01:34:14,520
Speaker 1: what keep me going is that I'm reminded this is temporary.

1756
01:34:14,920 --> 01:34:17,280
Speaker 1: I understand we get caught up in and thinking this fall.

1757
01:34:18,040 --> 01:34:20,920
Speaker 1: And I'm a firm believer that sometimes God come get

1758
01:34:21,080 --> 01:34:24,320
Speaker 1: certain people to get our attention to let you know,

1759
01:34:24,680 --> 01:34:27,120
Speaker 1: get comfortable out of here on earth. Yes, because this

1760
01:34:27,240 --> 01:34:30,160
Speaker 1: ain't your final destination. And like I said, I know

1761
01:34:30,240 --> 01:34:32,679
Speaker 1: I see him again, And like I had a little

1762
01:34:32,760 --> 01:34:35,719
Speaker 1: science man, Like I woke up one morning, I looked

1763
01:34:35,840 --> 01:34:38,840
Speaker 1: up and I just saw him smiling. Bro, you feel me?

1764
01:34:39,400 --> 01:34:41,960
Speaker 1: So like I get Science to here in a better place.

1765
01:34:42,040 --> 01:34:44,960
Speaker 1: And when he transitioned and I had to go to

1766
01:34:45,080 --> 01:34:49,360
Speaker 1: the hospital and I saw him, it was a peace

1767
01:34:49,439 --> 01:34:52,479
Speaker 1: on him I hadn't seen in a minute. Man. Yeah,

1768
01:34:52,720 --> 01:34:57,120
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So so like I see

1769
01:34:58,600 --> 01:35:00,680
Speaker 1: some light at the end of the time, right you

1770
01:35:00,800 --> 01:35:04,920
Speaker 1: follow first it was real dog and it's hopefully you'll

1771
01:35:05,040 --> 01:35:07,519
Speaker 1: you'll continue to walk towards the light and it gets

1772
01:35:07,760 --> 01:35:10,600
Speaker 1: brighter and brighter, you know what I see? Like, I

1773
01:35:10,720 --> 01:35:13,120
Speaker 1: want to use the platform, man, to just help others.

1774
01:35:13,479 --> 01:35:15,439
Speaker 1: You feel what I'm saying. Like my partner said, Bro,

1775
01:35:15,520 --> 01:35:18,280
Speaker 1: what you're gonna do next? I said, Bro, I just

1779
01:35:31,760 --> 01:35:35,080
Speaker 1: ain't got to discuss some on platform. Just talk to somebody. Dump.

1780
01:35:35,680 --> 01:35:38,000
Speaker 1: You've got to dump this ship because, like you said,
