Speaker 1: his dj e FN turn Spanish when they're supposed second year.
Speaker 1: You know that I like it, And it's Drink Chance podcast.
Speaker 1: When in the f started, this part is started. This
Speaker 1: is exact reason why we started, because we want to
Speaker 1: salute our legends. We want to give up the legends
Speaker 1: they fly. Was why they can smell them while they alive.
Speaker 1: These brothers that stand in front of us in a
Speaker 1: lot of ways, If it kind of wasn't for them,
Speaker 1: they probably wouldn't be a Noria opponent, Noriega or drink champs.
Speaker 1: They paved their way the label that fun to me.
Speaker 1: They were on first, they were doing it. These guys
Speaker 1: are legends. These guys stood here to the test of time.
Speaker 1: They're still making music that are dope. They working on
Speaker 1: the album right now with per Man and Pete Robs.
Speaker 1: These brothers are which when you call up, look at
Speaker 1: the word legend, when you look at the world classic legendary,
Speaker 1: their pictures, it's right there. And I am here to
Speaker 1: respect their legacy. And if you don't know who the funk?
Speaker 1: We talked about it to my motherfucking day lines all
Speaker 1: now now usually on drink camps. We started off with
Speaker 1: the beginning people's careers. But there's a big elephant in
Speaker 1: the room that I feel like I don't want to
Speaker 1: go around it. It's a movie I want to put
Speaker 1: in the beginning. Can we popped that bottom? It's the lace.
Speaker 1: Let's put this hell. Because what people don't know is
Speaker 1: everybody hit the internet that said that a certain label
Speaker 1: to which his Tommy Boy Records, which I was signed
Speaker 1: to at one point as well. And I've I've made
Speaker 1: how I uh stand? I said, fuck Tommy Boy. The
Speaker 1: niggas just suck. It was very elegant. It was a
Speaker 1: very elegant statement for what for what it's worked very late,
Speaker 1: I thought for sports on myself. But when I heard
Speaker 1: of the fact that they wanted to take your catalog
Speaker 1: and we just tripod at a rate of temper set,
Speaker 1: and that temper set would be split between the three
Speaker 1: of y'all. Yeah, yeah, so how did how did how
Speaker 1: did how did that even come about? Because the music
Speaker 1: is not available online? Right, it hasn't been, hasn't been? Why? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Ever not not? I mean we we missed the whole
Speaker 1: that part of the canine. Yeah, before we even get
Speaker 1: to that, let me ask you something. In the original
Speaker 1: contracts there never stated anything about digital. Was no language
Speaker 1: at the time, the bank language for it too to
Speaker 1: just happen if it was never there. It was, I
Speaker 1: guess I'm not trying to was specifically cassette by the
Speaker 1: c DSHA and CDs was was was even in eighty nine?
Speaker 1: Was c DS? I think maybe they probably admitted it
Speaker 1: just now I was just starting I mean that, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it was. It was. It was language in
Speaker 1: the contracts, but it was real vague. You know, I'm
Speaker 1: not certain exactly what it said, but it could be
Speaker 1: something like, you know, CDs, cassette, vinyl in any format.
Speaker 1: But so he could or any new change for now,
Speaker 1: how did you get um this information? Like a Tommy
Speaker 1: Boy reached out to you guys or you guys weas
Speaker 1: out the time boy if I releasing this and that, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean Tom Suleman reached out excuse me, individual number one. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: he reached out to us, you know, just doing trying
Speaker 1: to do the right business. I got the I got
Speaker 1: the catalog back, and I want to release you guys stuff. Now.
Speaker 1: He got it back through Rhino, right because I believe
Speaker 1: Rhino had it because I was trying to get my
Speaker 1: thing back at the same time of that. Paul so um,
Speaker 1: So he comes to y'all and he says he at
Speaker 1: first he wanted to do a deal with it, like
Speaker 1: he or what it was. He presented option, the option
Speaker 1: we spoke about that we felt was unfavorable. It was
Speaker 1: either we do this if we didn't respond at a
Speaker 1: certain time, then he would resort back to original contracts,
Speaker 1: which was contracts we signed from one. So we responded.
Speaker 1: We responded and saying that you know, we responded like
Speaker 1: we were supposed to. Yeah, So it was supposed to
Speaker 1: then go from there, but we didn't really get any
Speaker 1: communication going until the final hour, pretty much almost about
Speaker 1: a year. So we kept trying to get in touch
Speaker 1: with him and our lawyers was trying to reach out,
Speaker 1: and uh, we heard nothing from because I imagine this
Speaker 1: had to be like the last rout of you guys
Speaker 1: going to the internet. I imagine it was talks, you know,
Speaker 1: prior to that, well, it was definitely talks. So it
Speaker 1: was a lot of talk, you know, it was evaluated
Speaker 1: what was in front of us and really trying to
Speaker 1: figure out work to do, how to approach him, knowing
Speaker 1: knowing who he is. All together we've been in a relationship,
Speaker 1: you know how so you truly got to thank for
Speaker 1: your yourself for the team, you know, and you know,
Speaker 1: once we became came to a meeting of the minds
Speaker 1: of who we knew we're dealing with, it was time
Speaker 1: to strike. But we didn't give him the opportunity to
Speaker 1: speak in the very final hour. And then speaking in
Speaker 1: the final hour, he didn't want to make any changes.
Speaker 1: And to me now, speaking about my own situation, because
Speaker 1: I tried to get my two albums as well on
Speaker 1: the War Report and one of the things on in
Speaker 1: the r E album, he didn't he didn't want to
Speaker 1: negotiate with me because he said it wasn't be cooped
Speaker 1: And I'm like, who gives a funding this be coop to?
Speaker 1: Not moving forward? Why not split we go? Like you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, isn't that the simplest thing?
Speaker 1: Like And I'm not trying to like you know, like
Speaker 1: like you know, be smarter than what I'm supposed to be.
Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is, why wouldn't me go fifty
Speaker 1: fifty alcohol there? I would be happy to promote this ship.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Some of these kids don't
Speaker 1: even don't even like something. So man, this is this
Speaker 1: is an emotional topic for me because I'm directly affected.
Speaker 1: So when I seen you guys on the internet, um,
Speaker 1: moving around a little bit. Let me let me how
Speaker 1: did it feel to see the hip hop community you
Speaker 1: know standwich like, I mean, yeah, it's it's it's always
Speaker 1: a good feeling. Um, we kind of felt there was
Speaker 1: there with you said, so I kind of felt that
Speaker 1: they was there, Okay, you know, just just waiting. I
Speaker 1: mean we you know, from from the climate of what
Speaker 1: we felt with our kickstarter. Yeah, you know that climbing
Speaker 1: kind of told us that people out there who care.
Speaker 1: So when it was time to sound off, we kind
Speaker 1: of felt like it was gonna we was gonna have,
Speaker 1: you know, an alliance. But it turned out a little
Speaker 1: you know, it's it was honestly say, it was comforting.
Speaker 1: It felt it made the decision to feel right, you know,
Speaker 1: especially for somebody like hole Hold maybe don't honestly say
Speaker 1: maybe been in the room with him maybe three times
Speaker 1: my whole career, you know, and don't even just know
Speaker 1: each other through the music that spoke voluables. Well, you
Speaker 1: help raise all of us, you know what. It's the
Speaker 1: artist absolutely yeah, and then nas Nas question Droby, you
Speaker 1: know master Ace. I mean, I'm sure at one time
Speaker 1: or another everybody said this story. So you know, you
Speaker 1: see people coming together, artist fans, whomever, because in some way,
Speaker 1: shape or form, they've either heard it and affected by it,
Speaker 1: you know, let it to it somehow. So I mean
Speaker 1: wet So we had a few records exact people reach
Speaker 1: out behind the scenes, you big students. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying is like in my mind, I felt like
Speaker 1: it was probably hard for a lot of record exact
Speaker 1: people to speak out. I don't think it is anymore. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to say, like unless they have dealt
Speaker 1: and done this to other artists themselves, so it's kind
Speaker 1: of hard to be pointing a finger, you know. You
Speaker 1: know what it is. It's kind of fly now to
Speaker 1: own your masters, like you know, like like back then,
Speaker 1: like we weren't really thinking about that, like I'm speaking
Speaker 1: about myself now, yeah, like I was thinking about it advance,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, getting some jury, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And now I was like, it's like
Speaker 1: it's fly to actually own your your material, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, because we want to leave something to
Speaker 1: your your children. So the thing about it is like
Speaker 1: you haven't seen a person that you know lives in
Speaker 1: the projects for thirty years. They don't they don't own it,
Speaker 1: but it's their house. Yeah, that's what it feels like.
Speaker 1: It was like, you know what I got, I got
Speaker 1: on set literally prices for for not a lest years.
Speaker 1: They faint red, but that is there that she feels
Speaker 1: like she owns it. And like the projects, a good
Speaker 1: thing to do do the pro to do is tell
Speaker 1: you know what you should have on that, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, You still on that and that's Tom Sillerman.
Speaker 1: If you're listening, because I know you are you. I
Speaker 1: know you are Tom Sillerman, And dude listening, this is
Speaker 1: the best time for you to lead the pack. You
Speaker 1: lead the way and say, you know what, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: stop doing business. We're looking at it in this way.
Speaker 1: You can take this time and you can flat this
Speaker 1: whole ship and you can be there with us. Say
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna get a friendly presentation so
Speaker 1: everybody and then you feel queen land teeth was gonna
Speaker 1: come out and only body, Nationship and everybody else is
Speaker 1: gonna say, you know what, this is the guy we
Speaker 1: were wishing me with a new back. Then you can
Speaker 1: lead the path. You can lead the path, trust me,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So we got that out
Speaker 1: the way. We could keep going. I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, gonna go back back into it. But I'll
Speaker 1: say that's much more, you know. I I like to
Speaker 1: give people the opportunity to change because we have been
Speaker 1: given an opportunity based on how we grew up, where
Speaker 1: we come from, what we could have been doing, based
Speaker 1: rock Me as a thing that actually been a significant
Speaker 1: part of growing us to be the men we've become,
Speaker 1: you know. So I would like to say he would change,
Speaker 1: but I don't know. I don't know the way we've
Speaker 1: done business over the years, and the man I've sat
Speaker 1: next to talking business with, I don't know if he
Speaker 1: really has the ability to change. So I'll worry about that.
Speaker 1: But you know what, maybe it's you know, sometimes in
Speaker 1: order for it to change, sometimes you got to look
Speaker 1: at yourself in America. So maybe so maybe this is
Speaker 1: it because maybe he just doesn't It made me think
Speaker 1: this is it's just us. Maybe fix it is just you.
Speaker 1: Maybe think it's just me. Maybe thinks it's just a
Speaker 1: lot of people. So maybe he sees this interview, Like
Speaker 1: I said, he's gonna see this because I would watch
Speaker 1: it if I was him, And maybe he see this
Speaker 1: interview and say, like, we're not trying to be unfair
Speaker 1: and we're not trying to dis you, disrespect your legacy,
Speaker 1: disrespect your name or anything. In fact, we're proud of it.
Speaker 1: We want to claim our history. And the guy, I mean,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, I will honestly saying by
Speaker 1: by signing to Tommy BOYD was a significant part of
Speaker 1: what their legacy was then yes, yes, and that's that's
Speaker 1: I may not start home. So shignic false bottom z
Speaker 1: five them soones with Jake. You know, I feel like
Speaker 1: you know, we've embodied that, all of us. You know,
Speaker 1: we've all taken a piece of that on into our
Speaker 1: succesch swea, the blood swear, the tests for that, whether
Speaker 1: we claim it or not. We were all that, were
Speaker 1: all and it's fair fun to share that. Like when
Speaker 1: we spending we're out here those guys stories that's that
Speaker 1: far different? Well they might be even worse. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. To think about y'all, y'all leading the packet,
Speaker 1: the things that y'all maya is y'all knew how to
Speaker 1: use the internet, Like you know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 1: so many people don't know how to use the internet, bro,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like y'all used perfect because
Speaker 1: you did not this? Did you know? You didn't say
Speaker 1: you say you just said I said that my bad time.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. But um, you guys knew
Speaker 1: how to use the internet. And so what what is
Speaker 1: your end result? What do you think they get we
Speaker 1: get in with this? What? What is what what make
Speaker 1: it at this part ownership owning it all right, owning
Speaker 1: owning my catalog, that would make a world of difference,
Speaker 1: That make that make it that make it easier to
Speaker 1: show for work right? And what do ye think at
Speaker 1: a moment, at a moment like as an artist, because
Speaker 1: that's little ship. That ship is really like we worked
Speaker 1: hard for something and really know that. But we were
Speaker 1: doing a young man in front of the world. And
Speaker 1: you know it's time to make that right man, It's
Speaker 1: time to make that right now. And all fairness to
Speaker 1: the business we've been dunk doing. We've done nothing less
Speaker 1: than partnerships since they left. So and here it is.
Speaker 1: We've been blessed to do a shoot. We've been blessed
Speaker 1: to continue to tour tremendously. I mean Lobberry Congress, I
Speaker 1: mean you know Library of Congress with the catalog that
Speaker 1: people can't even get, you know, so you know, I
Speaker 1: look at you know, my comrades such as yourself missing
Speaker 1: only in particular when she had a great moment like
Speaker 1: fifteen years after work it and did the Super Bowl. Bro,
Speaker 1: she does it like a million downloads. I didn't work
Speaker 1: it if I'm not more so, I was kind of
Speaker 1: speculating what could it have been for us behind the
Speaker 1: White House? Yeah, that you know what could have been
Speaker 1: just potentially being Obama's request, you know, all right to
Speaker 1: perform at the White House with comment in the roots
Speaker 1: and doing me myself and I tem just be my laws.
Speaker 1: Let's do it ship man. We gotta get this right man.
Speaker 1: And again moving forward to to new artists who watching this, Uh,
Speaker 1: I want to you know, people to know that it
Speaker 1: was a lot harder to get off back then. Show
Speaker 1: you actually had you actually had to have skills now
Speaker 1: to say you guys don't have skills at a different
Speaker 1: time and ever so, and I mean to tell you
Speaker 1: got to outright everyone in your barrel when everybody to
Speaker 1: get to ale, it was will Will Will Will Will
Speaker 1: back then. I mean definitely coming from our demographics because
Speaker 1: I think we our gateway was always trying to get
Speaker 1: on the radio. We had to get on radio to
Speaker 1: be able to do our think. I mean, I wish
Speaker 1: we were able to do it like n W A
Speaker 1: or too Short. I wish we could sell out the
Speaker 1: car in New York. We would have never had this
Speaker 1: issue was always getting to that conduit which was up
Speaker 1: in the beginning, in the beginning, that that's that that
Speaker 1: was the goal was uh, you know radio radio, I think,
Speaker 1: I think, And it was cool. It wasn't tuning I'm
Speaker 1: affordably take yeah. Yeah. It wasn't art as hell or
Speaker 1: was it easy cool? It was hard if we you
Speaker 1: how to even get somebody's attention, like Prince Paul, like
Speaker 1: you always heard somewhere Big co sign. It was very
Speaker 1: sodom that somebody want to rack contest like steps to
Speaker 1: sign Ago whoever? You know what the fact boys who
Speaker 1: want to rack contest. We knew Prince Paul, but but
Speaker 1: I had to get his attention first, not take a minute,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, and hoping that the stars
Speaker 1: just lined up, which they did obviously, but even even
Speaker 1: then he didn't make no problem. So it's based on
Speaker 1: the position. And Chris Paul was a producer as well.
Speaker 1: Rights remember sign okay Ya and his groundbreaking his y'all
Speaker 1: were at the time too. That was did y'all think
Speaker 1: we might like it might be difficult to break this music? Yo?
Speaker 1: As basically saying success for us was hearing Magic the
Speaker 1: World World premiere, and I was off to the military.
Speaker 1: He was already in architectural school. He was off the college.
Speaker 1: It's like we was about to move on with the life. Yeah,
Speaker 1: to get a re up to do like Pottles in
Speaker 1: my long He's like, okay, you know me something you know.
Speaker 1: And then there was Potoles and Jennifer, and Jennifer was
Speaker 1: out of respect answer to Jim Browski because we were
Speaker 1: the jungle brothers. With Jenny, it was like Jenny Jimmy
Speaker 1: and became buddies after a while. Right, let me ask
Speaker 1: you your because your names and fell back with y
Speaker 1: How did you come up with that? Who? What? Po
Speaker 1: started like yoga? Yeah? Yeah, I started the back which okay,
Speaker 1: how did you start with that? Um? I love this

Speaker 1: you know you better like eat up everything. And you
Speaker 1: played like take that bread and stop up the soul
Speaker 1: sounds like he was a d J playing on the

Speaker 1: when I started back towards trying to be an MC,
Speaker 1: I just turned everything backwards. Pass suck came pass yes
Speaker 1: sound became do new You know what I'm saying. That's
Speaker 1: right story for twenty years and even are you want

Speaker 1: got ten years of more in this game, people want
Speaker 1: to say you washed, but in every other genre of
Speaker 1: music or every other they say you season. So I
Speaker 1: don't want to change the genre. And I think I'm

Speaker 1: we're in this mansion. You know, we're making fun of

Speaker 1: around in his car. It says like he don't even
Speaker 1: own it. Stuff like that that checks and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: But I guess Park thought, um, we're basically Adrian was
Speaker 1: managing him at the time. Reached out to to our
Speaker 1: people's right at Tommy Boy and he was just like yo,
Speaker 1: he just feels like, um, y'all are trying to playoff
Speaker 1: in this I Get around video and he was like yo,
Speaker 1: and he was like pop, it wasn't even like this
Speaker 1: did you do underground pot right he just first first
Speaker 1: okay when money fees in that single? Yeah, yeah, So
Speaker 1: and the way it was related to us, like Pok
Speaker 1: was just just disappointed because he he loved us, mean,
Speaker 1: and we immediately let him know. Liken, like we had
Speaker 1: no thought about that. We didn't even see the I
Speaker 1: see the angle. Yeah I don't notice that. I would
Speaker 1: probably said something, but I didn't even notice it. But
Speaker 1: I mean like kind of known when he was alive.
Speaker 1: I'll apologize straight up because I I didn't see that,
Speaker 1: and and that's definitely works on the intentions. I love
Speaker 1: the brother. Yeah, it was unfortunately weird because when we
Speaker 1: were told, I mean, we immediately was like, no, that's
Speaker 1: not even the case. And then Adrian gave me the
Speaker 1: number to speak to him, so you know that's by
Speaker 1: that time, he had a crib out in Atlanta. Um
Speaker 1: I tried to call him. I missed. I think I
Speaker 1: missed this call. I called him back, but I left
Speaker 1: the message. I said, YO, hit me back. He never
Speaker 1: hit me back. But so then like maybe or whatever
Speaker 1: year or so later, when you hear hear what was
Speaker 1: going on the album, it just called us off guard
Speaker 1: because you know, populous people. I mean, I remember a
Speaker 1: time went on. You did a show out in the Bay,
Speaker 1: you know, great show, and after the show, I'm standing
Speaker 1: outside and some dude came up on me like yo,
Speaker 1: you know, like you just send Caress one. I was
Speaker 1: like what, Like I was like carresponds a god to me,
Speaker 1: Like no, no, because you said in that song Aple Connections,
Speaker 1: you know you're not a vegetarian, You're not scared of beef.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, it's just a metaphor thing and what's
Speaker 1: gonna cares one of the vegetarian and he does. So
Speaker 1: then the dude was just trying to get at me,
Speaker 1: and Pop came out of nowhere. It's like you're young,
Speaker 1: and like that's you know, that's people's and like so
Speaker 1: Pok kind of saved me from any problem. So I mean,
Speaker 1: like pak was always a good people to us. So
Speaker 1: it's saddened it happened because we just didn't understand where
Speaker 1: it where it came from. Left really got a chance
Speaker 1: to fix me. We tried, but didn't even know that
Speaker 1: I'm talking about like this man, it had even been
Speaker 1: four or five years ago. I ran into assist at
Speaker 1: the airport in Atlanta and she was like, Yo, Pap
Speaker 1: was a really good fan of yours. And she was like,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you straight up, like he loved y'all. He
Speaker 1: would just hurt when it happened. And I guess you
Speaker 1: know at that point, you know, Parky led his heart.
Speaker 1: So yeah, well that's what it was. I'll bless you too.
Speaker 1: Got your own dunk sleeper. Ye, goddamn in that night.
Speaker 1: Huh how did that come about it? Yeah? We did
Speaker 1: two of those two wrong. I think the first one
Speaker 1: might have been like two thousand and four. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: we had the high Time three guys. Yeah. Yeah. People
Speaker 1: throw at the eghs was like teenage ninja ninja turtles.
Speaker 1: They would they like nicknamed them that, but they don't
Speaker 1: when I do what, they're the champagne. Okay, let's do it.
Speaker 1: Let's do it. Come on, Yeah, years later to talk
Speaker 1: about it out. Yeah, yeah, leaving at home on purpose,
Speaker 1: leaving home two much, lady, you called me before you
Speaker 1: got a whole case. By the way, I want to
Speaker 1: let y'all know if you switch the lot one of more. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let y'all know if you're gonna take this,
Speaker 1: we do not claim this. We do not. We do
Speaker 1: not promote this. We know that this is the worst
Speaker 1: thing ever. Yeah, we're all well aware that we are
Speaker 1: search in general that comes out. But we celebrate hip hop. Okay,
Speaker 1: damn give me a decent side. Okay, No, decent side
Speaker 1: usually made me disrespecting Bill here, don't you got you
Speaker 1: said you wanna take woman? Y'all heard you? I just
Speaker 1: he was funny. Yeah, they went and found it. Man,
Speaker 1: you make out the world it is. It just went crazy.
Speaker 1: We gottamore who We celebrate y'all legacy tonight. Let me
Speaker 1: tell y'all, y'all legends. We support y'all with y'all movement.
Speaker 1: We love y'all, and we left big people. We're gonna
Speaker 1: do doing that. Everybody got something, ye yill man, he said,
Speaker 1: what is that? That wasn't talking, boy man, there was
Speaker 1: lying Boone's tasted like boy, you tire? That was horrible.
Speaker 1: That's healthy, right, Hope it is hope straight. You're right?
Speaker 1: Did you every thing hip hop would be just big? No? No,
Speaker 1: I mean hip hop was enormous At Run DMC, that
Speaker 1: was big enough. You know, walked this way. You know,
Speaker 1: you couldn't even think how much bigger it could get,
Speaker 1: you know, what they were doing. And I guess I
Speaker 1: guess you know, when you were a kid man, all
Speaker 1: you thinking is like Norri said, like you thinking just
Speaker 1: how you gonna benefit from this directly? You know I'm
Speaker 1: gonna I mean a chain, I'm gonna be you know,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be doing it. But you never look at
Speaker 1: it as you know, a business and you know, income
Speaker 1: extensions and branding all that. Yeah, we never thought that.
Speaker 1: But it's nice to see it happening. Man, it's it's
Speaker 1: it's a beautiful thing to see us to us opening
Speaker 1: bigger doors and and getting into bigger and better places.
Speaker 1: And you know that, I guess the what kind of
Speaker 1: is where we are at this time? And hopefully it
Speaker 1: can revert back to you know, the artists of a goal.
Speaker 1: It's his ownership of things, you know. You know, it's
Speaker 1: good to see the new young folks, you know, doing
Speaker 1: a business accordingly to a different standard. But you know,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of us, you know, who are even
Speaker 1: before us. It's like I always say to myself, why
Speaker 1: isn't there a Vegas show of hip hop? You know,
Speaker 1: why isn't there a show where it's like it's you
Speaker 1: know who see you know what they're doing it now,
Speaker 1: they're doing it. I think two Chains has one and
Speaker 1: he's like, he's like he's a young Yeah, he's a
Speaker 1: dress I just left l a and because a billboard
Speaker 1: in front of the hotel. So they they they're getting more.
Speaker 1: I think Nellie had one president. I'm talking about even
Speaker 1: bigger than that, Like you know Blue Man Group. Why
Speaker 1: isn't there a presentation? You know, I think we can
Speaker 1: go in those directions, and that's where you can begin
Speaker 1: to incorporate brothers like Grandmaster Flash and Bellie Mail and
Speaker 1: Work and people who deserve those positions and that should
Speaker 1: be part of owning things and being a part of
Speaker 1: the history and the legacy of it. You know, we
Speaker 1: don't expect them always excuse me to put to put
Speaker 1: records out, that's not what you know, really expecting them
Speaker 1: to do. But there should be opportunities for them to
Speaker 1: reap off of the what they create. The architect absolutely,
Speaker 1: and it's not about that era of saying our older
Speaker 1: guards got to come at somebody and and expect something.
Speaker 1: There's enough money to be made, where like an opportunity
Speaker 1: you know you've seen it done. Another genres right, So
Speaker 1: it's not like we are. It's a motown review. Why
Speaker 1: wouldn't it be a profile review? Are? You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like if you have these artists, and what
Speaker 1: do you guys think about, like the streaming that like
Speaker 1: the director to consumer. You know what I'm saying, Is
Speaker 1: that something that you guys are fans of or you know? Um,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say we're against it, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like because I imagine the time. I remember at one
Speaker 1: point I wouldn't throw a record out and it wouldn't
Speaker 1: get to Japan, So you know what I'm saying. Sixteen
Speaker 1: days later and I remember a time where in order
Speaker 1: for the record to get to London, I had to
Speaker 1: physically go there. Right, Yeah, I'm getting old old, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I don't know if you I'm
Speaker 1: not stop. I don't know. If you remember we was
Speaker 1: at your show at Subterranean and London You've got totally shock.
Speaker 1: Everyone knew your lyrics. Oh yes, damn man comes a
Speaker 1: car you yo, yo, listen, listen to yo. Yes, no,
Speaker 1: I remember when I've seen y'all in London and it
Speaker 1: was it's lousy right in London and y'all, and I said,
Speaker 1: we are doing it's like you gotta show in two
Speaker 1: weeks and I was like day bed two weeks and
Speaker 1: I remember, I remember that was doing features ya kidding?
Speaker 1: And I never I had never knew that. That had
Speaker 1: never made sense to me until ten years later. I said,
Speaker 1: holy ship doing exactly what they right, Yo, that's it.
Speaker 1: That's ship is ill like how life? How life? You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying? Comes together and I think, you
Speaker 1: she gotta be some noise. But I got what But
Speaker 1: let me get back to the point I was trying
Speaker 1: to make. Was I remember I used to have to picity.
Speaker 1: I could go to like to a London didn't or
Speaker 1: to a jamaicap or to a scott or whatever to
Speaker 1: like promote the record. Now I can actually drop it
Speaker 1: one place and you can actually see from the comments
Speaker 1: this guy's from Switzer Ryan this. I think that's amazing. Question.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, how you feel like? I mean,
Speaker 1: do you get them take? I would need to entertainment
Speaker 1: to take is you know we're really making no money
Speaker 1: off this anymore. Now we're kind of using our music
Speaker 1: more to promote and got game money and resentuals off
Speaker 1: in other areas. I tell yourself something, when you look
Speaker 1: at the streaming the people who pay them most and
Speaker 1: I'm not on jay Z's pay roll, it's title. Why
Speaker 1: is that? Like? Why is title given paying the artists more?
Speaker 1: Like like Apple? We can put it on Apple, even
Speaker 1: put it on Spotify and put it on a title.
Speaker 1: Why is specifically paying more paying more? It's because it's
Speaker 1: got a lot of to do it whole and pro artist.
Speaker 1: You know, the beauty or of his position, in my
Speaker 1: opinion is the period is now. You got a coach
Speaker 1: who played the game, right, there's we always other coaches
Speaker 1: who never played the game. Why are we gonna just
Speaker 1: go out of supports titles? Why? Why has he banging
Speaker 1: on that? Why is it investing in that for the
Speaker 1: last When are we going to like suppower our own
Speaker 1: like y'all great examples, because like like I'm sorry you
Speaker 1: cut you up, but I'm like when y'all said something
Speaker 1: the whole if I like the whole hip hop community,
Speaker 1: like I have power right now, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like I wanted to let you let you know that
Speaker 1: y'all in the position of real power because it's it's
Speaker 1: even the young kids are tuned in because they said,
Speaker 1: you know, nas is there, Hold is dead, and that
Speaker 1: the subject, the subject matter is what matters. So, um,
Speaker 1: how do we how do how do uh capitalize? I mean,
Speaker 1: it's great to monetize it. It's great to be able
Speaker 1: to harness it and and changing change it into opportunities
Speaker 1: to earn from. But you know, it's like, because of
Speaker 1: the subject matter that we're dealing with right now, I
Speaker 1: also see the opportunity to make legislation, you know, to
Speaker 1: help your artists, future artists coming. You know, we could
Speaker 1: all monetize this. There's great ways to to make that happen.
Speaker 1: But we also got to think that the power is
Speaker 1: greater than just dollars and cents. So, I mean, so
Speaker 1: I would love to see what comes out of our
Speaker 1: you know madness. It's legislation changing man, people fighting and
Speaker 1: pushing for that. Hopefully this is this will inspire an attorney.
Speaker 1: Hopefully this will inspire young entrepreneur or someone who's in
Speaker 1: the game right now who feels like we need to
Speaker 1: just change the rules a little bit, you know, So
Speaker 1: capitalizing off it can be dollars and sense, but streaming
Speaker 1: the business model behind streaming is still unfavorable. You know.
Speaker 1: I just think Title is the best company, doing the
Speaker 1: best they can based on their competitors, because they still
Speaker 1: got to compete, you know what I mean. And you
Speaker 1: can't eat Robert Hood. He can't. I means much as
Speaker 1: he's trying to be still can't be a fool in business.
Speaker 1: But do you guys have any of those aspirations to
Speaker 1: to lead that way or be leaders and and make
Speaker 1: your own companies and consult companies to to avoid these
Speaker 1: things for future artists? Inspired inspired to be and a
Speaker 1: lot of it comes out of these mistakes, you know,
Speaker 1: because that experience we need, that we need that. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm always down to be the model for change. You know.
Speaker 1: The minute I touched hip hop culture and changed my
Speaker 1: life period based on what I know it could have been.
Speaker 1: So therefore I was always inspired to do the thing.
Speaker 1: But it can it is, you know, I want, I
Speaker 1: wanted to learn. I was at Rush all the time.
Speaker 1: I was still attributed a big part of my success
Speaker 1: today to the things I've learned around Elizabeth Street Rush,
Speaker 1: all this management. You know, people just people have may
Speaker 1: be hey man, we was a carduit even for Chrisler. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. We we was there before
Speaker 1: all of them. Yeah, so and here it is. I
Speaker 1: would say, it's but even our mistakes in that situation
Speaker 1: that allowed trying to do with dead doing a lot
Speaker 1: others to do with dead doom at Chris like you
Speaker 1: to even be the guy he looked at to be like, yo,
Speaker 1: you take over then. And one thing I can say, y'all,
Speaker 1: I'm proud of every decision we made, good and bad.
Speaker 1: Lisa was ours and we live in Pla was hours
Speaker 1: when we learned from him. Yeah, but it's a what
Speaker 1: I'm mushing your guyana non don't know, y'all. Stuff with
Speaker 1: each other, always going in the back. They were really
Speaker 1: people sometimes because a whole bunch of fights back. I'm
Speaker 1: a but but I like it, like it's crazy because
Speaker 1: today you can't very very early, all right, That's true.
Speaker 1: You would have to come out. You know, I'm the
Speaker 1: early nagg. I'm the early thinking and Pold is always
Speaker 1: the late thig and I'm just sort of your face.
Speaker 1: It was like past, I'm not sure if you're the
Speaker 1: early guy. Listen, I don't actually funding me coming back.
Speaker 1: I want to access that has he even the lake
Speaker 1: out lately? You can literally don't you think I'm the
Speaker 1: early guys? He just asks you to act as I
Speaker 1: think when I got When it comes to the club,
Speaker 1: when it comes to the clubs as the earliest, I'd
Speaker 1: like to be there when he's clock. No one's said,
Speaker 1: still sweeping, who what are you doing? Him going to
Speaker 1: the club when no one is like when they still
Speaker 1: open it up and people want still wiping down the tables.
Speaker 1: This ship he got, his bottle of rum, makes some
Speaker 1: going to finish. We walked up, man, So what what
Speaker 1: this one is the best? That's the best. That hip
Speaker 1: hop is stuff for you man? Yeah? It a for
Speaker 1: the us, a chance to travel all around the world, right,
Speaker 1: learn a lot, you know, I mean, and I'm sure
Speaker 1: you can attest to it. I mean, we all feel
Speaker 1: where we're from is our world. It's our goal. And
Speaker 1: when you're able to travel, you can see the differences,
Speaker 1: and then you can also see what is so similar
Speaker 1: with you and someone from Sweden or someone from Cali.
Speaker 1: You know, support my family, yeah, without question, you know,
Speaker 1: doing something you love love, Yeah, and that's the biggest
Speaker 1: thing that finding out, Uh, I got something for moment
Speaker 1: love question for y'all or actually a story she wants
Speaker 1: to hear. They don't let it be about she said,
Speaker 1: a fight on she said me another one too, Oh god,

Speaker 1: was Christal. Was they slash christ it was? It was
Speaker 1: a night Chris Letting got cutting his face. I never
Speaker 1: know this story ship. Yeah, so it was Padnimonia that night.
Speaker 1: That's all you know, you stuck for your family and
Speaker 1: handle ship. Yeah, pretty much. It was one of us.
Speaker 1: Don't tips that. No jungle was Jungles. Of course the
Speaker 1: ladies was then all a lot of people from Amity,
Speaker 1: but just it got crazy. But you know so that
Speaker 1: it was kind of one and not only that. I
Speaker 1: don't all that was going on. Somebody tried to steal
Speaker 1: uh just the cash. Yeah, the club. The club never
Speaker 1: heard of this. What was what was wild about that
Speaker 1: night person to me is that this is pre internet
Speaker 1: and and that happened like people in UK heard about
Speaker 1: it because I guess at that point it were just
Speaker 1: getting on the phone and calling somebody, right yo, like this, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I still have facts, but she ain't gonna lot of school. Yeah.
Speaker 1: We gotta with the we gotta with the paper roll
Speaker 1: or just the individual paper roll. Yeah, yeah, we got
Speaker 1: the analog. I'm great my life. Yeah, I still got
Speaker 1: a package. Yeah, y'all mentioned Jungle Brothers. We've got to
Speaker 1: talk about the creation of native to Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean native tongue. We had this gig in Boston and
Speaker 1: Jungle was on on the bill as well, and that's
Speaker 1: when Us Jungle and that's who was native tough to
Speaker 1: begin with. It was US tribe and Jungle. Any idea
Speaker 1: came from from Jungle Brothers from Africa. Okay Africa. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we met at we out of the gig exchange numbers.
Speaker 1: Wanted up hanging out. And when you say Africa, we
Speaker 1: said about it after the baby bag Jungle Brothers, Oh yeah, yeah, Africa,
Speaker 1: j bs Um. We did a show with Jungle Brothers
Speaker 1: in Boston, met them and then from there we just
Speaker 1: created a relationship and then eventually we was in the
Speaker 1: studio and and we invited them to the studio. For us,
Speaker 1: it was like studio is just like inviting friends and
Speaker 1: if you happen to be there, you're gonna be a
Speaker 1: part of what's going on. Because back then we had
Speaker 1: rails email correct, right, So you had to be in
Speaker 1: the studio. Yeah, I said, I said that said about that.
Speaker 1: You know what, I'm like, you just running out a
Speaker 1: little doors, like you had to go to the niggas
Speaker 1: Like remember I remember I had to go to the
Speaker 1: seabuster rhynd. So I had to bring the rail there.
Speaker 1: It was like the day of my life. Literally, ship,
Speaker 1: we have to work out CHRISTI fun before you before
Speaker 1: you could even record, you have to strike the tape. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you have to run the whole tape all the way.
Speaker 1: They put medio that this preset was our final mixus. Man, Yeah,
Speaker 1: was this guy's got it so easy? Man? Oh my god.
Speaker 1: You bird a punch And I didn't know what a
Speaker 1: punching was until two thousand and five. About I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: I ain't punching for I ain't punching until two thousands
Speaker 1: for work. Because I'm told about Unique Studios. Most of
Speaker 1: my ship from those days with Unique study deals. At
Speaker 1: that time, Unique was not digital at all. Criteria out
Speaker 1: here It was not digital at all, so it was
Speaker 1: it was one take Charlie for me, Like, that's how
Speaker 1: it comes from that area. You gotta don't get away
Speaker 1: from that. That's why that's why our music. I just
Speaker 1: se y'all niggers the news this, y'all. That's why our
Speaker 1: music sound much better than y'all. That's why y'all. Ship
Speaker 1: even listen to your album eight now and listen to
Speaker 1: somebody from right now, you can like, look, look how
Speaker 1: because because these guys aren't even mixing right now, they
Speaker 1: just they just pointed a little bit. I throw it
Speaker 1: out right. They don't give a fun music so disposable
Speaker 1: right now. Back then, the music lasted that whole year.
Speaker 1: That's why I get called to the classic. You didn't
Speaker 1: listen to an album for a week. Listen to an
Speaker 1: album that old fucking year, all the credits. I'll be
Speaker 1: dropping it right. I'm dropping balls right now, right, Holy ship,
Speaker 1: it was better back there. I don't know if you
Speaker 1: talk to yourself, if you can say your mind sometimes
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm just saying. I'm just saying, let's look
Speaker 1: at the quality of it, the qualities. Listen, how many
Speaker 1: classics came out like right now, it's probably one classic
Speaker 1: album that came out last year, probably right saying J Cole, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it'll probably be It'll probably be less than ten if
Speaker 1: we really get crazy, like we wouldn't use all of all.
Speaker 1: But in the nineties, like everybody that dropped was a
Speaker 1: class I mean, it has to be something too not
Speaker 1: compare in the process. The process was more difficult back then,
Speaker 1: where now it's like you can you can record album
Speaker 1: on your phone right right that because the process you
Speaker 1: want to be careful and make sure whatever you put
Speaker 1: us exactly what you wanted to put out. I would
Speaker 1: imagine its product it's more of a field, you know.
Speaker 1: I feel like now it's definitely more of a field.
Speaker 1: You can make something on your laptop, press the button,
Speaker 1: it is out. You know, it's I guess like how
Speaker 1: you're saying it's like listening to music that it would
Speaker 1: be like extra p making a beat in his crib.
Speaker 1: Is how the finished product for younger cats now sound
Speaker 1: like actually can get to beat the nads And now
Speaker 1: you're going to give it to the engineer because because
Speaker 1: to be fair to say, young cats right now they
Speaker 1: might be thrown out what would have just been demo records.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, It's like, throw it out.
Speaker 1: I didn't want it right, but you gotta, you gotta,
Speaker 1: you gotta respectfully understand what the technology. You know, my
Speaker 1: my kids, young cats listen to everything in headphones and buds.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. It's not about bumping in
Speaker 1: your systems. What I'm saying because because you should do
Speaker 1: mixes in all forms on headphones on all go in
Speaker 1: the car. This is in the car. Know, working with
Speaker 1: Pream the other day he did to say and thinking
Speaker 1: like yoo, okay, I gotta go to I gotta go

Speaker 1: this could be really a dope thing to do. But
Speaker 1: then then you say triple album. Wouldn't I need him
Speaker 1: clarify it would have at the time. Yeah, I came
Speaker 1: out with a noble and we was like, well, let's
Speaker 1: top all of that and do a triple But you know,
Speaker 1: exactly exactly, No, man, this is this just like how
Speaker 1: you said, we're trying to be We are a gentleman here.
Speaker 1: We you know, we get it when when a person
Speaker 1: deserves it. But Thomson was like, that's crazy. He didn't
Speaker 1: like he just came up with a better idea. Why
Speaker 1: why Well maybe and I just couldn't be baby, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but what was that idea? Why do three records when
Speaker 1: you could just do three installments? Like why do you
Speaker 1: record three budget per You know what I'm saying that
Speaker 1: good and that's what actually yeah, yeah, that's when the
Speaker 1: A Y series came. One of us that much music. Man,
Speaker 1: something gets lost in there, you do. You feel like
Speaker 1: you're waiting from that song that So that was a
Speaker 1: good idea and we did a o I one. We
Speaker 1: then O I T Yeah, and we still got to
Speaker 1: do a O I three. So that's something that we
Speaker 1: were coming around to it telling me what folding you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Wow, And that's when everyone went
Speaker 1: into the to the WIA matrix and then labels was
Speaker 1: trying to pick what they want. Electro one at us.
Speaker 1: So we actually met with Electra well Sylvia Rosa because
Speaker 1: we are talking right folded. We all got absolved. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've been yeah, I've been the same. It's crazy like
Speaker 1: the back back yea technically label made yeah technically you know.
Speaker 1: I was a promoter for Time man. Okay, tell you
Speaker 1: Sylvia really wanted us on Electric to be wrong. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think Wrong's She's an epic man. We want black CEOs, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: we you know, we met with her. Look like it
Speaker 1: could be a good thing, you know, we were we
Speaker 1: were kind of like, yo, like this could be cool.
Speaker 1: But she wanted us to do the entire album with Timberland,
Speaker 1: and it was like, all right, you know, we don't
Speaker 1: necessarily know Tim like that, we would like to know
Speaker 1: if people be interested, But then we kind of had
Speaker 1: our organic way of doing things, like we didn't have
Speaker 1: been ill you know what I'm saying. I see that though,
Speaker 1: so you know, it just didn't work out. She wanted
Speaker 1: certain things creatively we weren't, you know, yeah, just like
Speaker 1: just like they just I'll give any creative opportunity, you know, shot,
Speaker 1: But I really didn't see that. I don't wish it
Speaker 1: would tie Tim, but I see for World War so
Speaker 1: if our world would have he would have what held
Speaker 1: Because I heard, you know, play your music. I know
Speaker 1: because the back y'all y'all sound I'm personally driving, So okay,
Speaker 1: you no, I'm just saying, like, just like as y'all
Speaker 1: were saying and David saying earlier, Um, you know, you
Speaker 1: get props with props to do what I mean, Like
Speaker 1: Tommy Boy always allowed us to just have free reign
Speaker 1: over our creativity. So immediately seeing Sylvia trying to control
Speaker 1: it kind of made us me like, I don't know
Speaker 1: if we could it would be it would work it
Speaker 1: when you felt like it controlling it always at a suggestion,
Speaker 1: because you know, you figured I knew Sylvia, you know
Speaker 1: from Renee of Clean being there that I was like
Speaker 1: my brother in law. You know, I would always powers
Speaker 1: that would step up there a lot. So you know,
Speaker 1: she was just very like adamant on, like, yo, and
Speaker 1: I see this vision for y'all attempt to do the
Speaker 1: Oh album. You know what I'm saying. Our manager at
Speaker 1: the time, Corey Smith, you know who was listening. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, Um, it just didn't seem like it would
Speaker 1: work out the way we would want it to be.
Speaker 1: So she was cool with us saying like, you know,
Speaker 1: we don't need to be there. You know, we felt
Speaker 1: like that wouldn't be where we wanted to be, and
Speaker 1: Atlantic going through trying to pull us in, and even
Speaker 1: the gentleman who was overseeing everything, he was the head
Speaker 1: of we are, like we want to this. He was
Speaker 1: like a big day life and he's like, yo, why
Speaker 1: don't you just be Warner Brothers. But we was like, look,
Speaker 1: there's a perfect opportunity to be to be independent. So
Speaker 1: we kind of asked for it, and you know, it
Speaker 1: was the best thing to ever had in our career.
Speaker 1: I mean that's like the biggest blessing man, just to
Speaker 1: be depending. Yeah. Yeah, there was there a learning curve
Speaker 1: that you when you were independent, you had to figure
Speaker 1: things out that you didn't know. No, no, you're just
Speaker 1: already kind of knew. Yeah, I mean yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: we kind of made sense. It was comment sense, yeah,
Speaker 1: pretty much. And the responsibility ultimately it was on us
Speaker 1: everything in the parts board and not to cut you.
Speaker 1: I'm still going back to that. We we spent so
Speaker 1: many years having control of how to do things creatively,
Speaker 1: but and could see at like say with us being
Speaker 1: wanna rush rush and death jam of course was so blended.
Speaker 1: We would see how Russell would talk to their artist
Speaker 1: like your hell, you gotta do this. You'll get on
Speaker 1: a train, go get it with boys the man go.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Yo, you know matth, you
Speaker 1: gotta do this. Like we just we couldn't go to
Speaker 1: a label and having a label telling Daylight what to do.
Speaker 1: We have to be able to do what we need
Speaker 1: to do. So we need to be on our own.
Speaker 1: We needed to be independent to stay in control of
Speaker 1: what we wanted to do. You know what and you
Speaker 1: you honestly like me an independent more than the main Yo. Well,
Speaker 1: I mean we would never major. I think when you
Speaker 1: think some would say someone say that, I would say that,
Speaker 1: I think I say point, I mean yeah, yeah, because
Speaker 1: you can't be that Actually was all penalty backers when
Speaker 1: I was Yeah, that was boys a little yeah so
Speaker 1: um so yeah. So so essentially that means that to
Speaker 1: all settlement was the I mean the time boy was
Speaker 1: the distributing, so that so that that yourself made them better.
Speaker 1: I mean, of course the comfort of a label was
Speaker 1: like it almost feel like you got staff you know
Speaker 1: already there. People know their job, they know the business,
Speaker 1: they know how to get around. So the comfort of
Speaker 1: having a a company of corporation as a team, you know,
Speaker 1: Master Philli, you got a partners. Yeah, mass Pillar is
Speaker 1: a dope. I'm throwing the project with them, a dope,
Speaker 1: let's dope, dope. They're doing good things there. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: probably the best of both worlds in the sense. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the last album we put out anonymous nobody and then
Speaker 1: as nobody, you know master Phil wants to be involved. Um,
Speaker 1: this is the crowd funding. Yeah, yeah, wanted to have someone. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we don't even have someone dis I did think let
Speaker 1: me ask you real. Sorry that good, but did y'all
Speaker 1: break I felt like y'all broke records in terms of
Speaker 1: artists raising money, did you or at least look, let's
Speaker 1: let's get into that. Let's get it, because that to
Speaker 1: me was I mean, I saw what was going. I
Speaker 1: was getting all the emails one side of the game,
Speaker 1: but I was getting all the evening. It would be
Speaker 1: wasting money for the budget of the album. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: they raised an incredible amount of money. Yeah, it was
Speaker 1: six hundred gan um days. Yeah, didn't waste voice for that.
Speaker 1: Man seriously made the noise from fans. Man, you know,
Speaker 1: it was those smokes that came out. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: it's it's you know, it's a flattering thing. Eleven thousand
Speaker 1: people raised six hundred thousand dollars. How what was the budget? Was?
Speaker 1: How much did you put that you were trying to raise?
Speaker 1: We were trying to get one fifteen Yeah, yeah, obviously
Speaker 1: we have seen it that in three hours and were
Speaker 1: like three hours when week hours? You know, And I
Speaker 1: feel like the man, I don't think number the number
Speaker 1: was contented on what we were looking at around the
Speaker 1: industry at the time when we were considering that there
Speaker 1: what was coming. We're star ranging from a hundred to
Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty, so anybody road of what we
Speaker 1: thought was okay, what was achievable. It's a difficult thing
Speaker 1: to excuse me mas to be asking for money. It
Speaker 1: started and it almost a human you know, feeling like,
Speaker 1: am I begging here? Am I gonna look like I
Speaker 1: ain't got it? And we live at the time of
Speaker 1: the internet way there's some people who so it was
Speaker 1: kind of weird. So we didn't want to seem like
Speaker 1: we was greedy. We didn't want to seem like we
Speaker 1: couldn't afford it because those were that wasn't that The
Speaker 1: idea was too almost raise the awareness that you could
Speaker 1: do this our sounds and it's pre sales. Really then
Speaker 1: you do donate, they get the album. It was a
Speaker 1: man like a lot of you know, we offered a
Speaker 1: lot of things. You know, if you if you give
Speaker 1: up five grand, you go toy shopping with Dave. If
Speaker 1: you give up five grand, you go money man. So
Speaker 1: that time we got the recognize what do you get?
Speaker 1: You got the flash and also I'm sorry Dave. Within
Speaker 1: context of it, all immediately working on the album. We
Speaker 1: were working on the album, and we all knew labels
Speaker 1: that were actually interested immediately off the top, you know,
Speaker 1: from the band we worked with to ourselves. We have
Speaker 1: people definitely wanting to hear it without hearing anything, very
Speaker 1: interested in doing anything but Davis. But as creative we
Speaker 1: were allowing ourselves to give the album. Is what made
Speaker 1: us once again think that from a creative standpoint, we
Speaker 1: put this on the album because we put a song
Speaker 1: with you know, I don't know us and David Byrne
Speaker 1: and he's singing and then we rhyme like could we
Speaker 1: really do that? And that's what made us think like, well,
Speaker 1: why don't we raise the money to just keep it
Speaker 1: be able to keep it totally creative, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And I have a label think like, well, yo,
Speaker 1: we're like you gotta you gotta put Kodak Black one.
Speaker 1: It's one record I love astrictions that wouldn't come with
Speaker 1: being on a label with a short budget. You know
Speaker 1: what I mean hearing is it was already twelve years
Speaker 1: we had made a record, so you know, looking at
Speaker 1: just the business side of it, that wasn't a good thing.
Speaker 1: For us, no one. We couldn't done a good sort
Speaker 1: that you guys did it because I think yeah we
Speaker 1: congratulations congratulations as well? Why why why? Why why are
Speaker 1: you ain't positive? Why you ain't uh trying to be
Speaker 1: like the head of Sony. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like is that is that
Speaker 1: our next? You know? You know what I'm saying, because
Speaker 1: like is it? We really are people from within or
Speaker 1: at least systems? You think that's the thing. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Not for us, I'll speak for myself
Speaker 1: perfect Like I can see you like a Spotify like
Speaker 1: you know, you know what I'm saying, like like like
Speaker 1: something like that, that's something interested in not me personally.
Speaker 1: And I think that I got those type of people
Speaker 1: in my band, but not me personally. Okay, it's um,
Speaker 1: I'm a creative, That's that's who I am. I got ideas,
Speaker 1: you know. Now, Can I see myself in a position
Speaker 1: where I'm you know, creatively you know, pushing this preaching
Speaker 1: company to consulting? Right? Absolutely? But you know I think
Speaker 1: the the executive and the things is something that we
Speaker 1: would probably speak about and try to inspire young people
Speaker 1: to aspire to. But for us, for me personally, I
Speaker 1: love music, man, I just want to I just want
Speaker 1: to rhyme and that I mean, that's that's that's where
Speaker 1: it is pure. You know. I definitely love music, as
Speaker 1: as David saying, but yeah, I would, I could do it.
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, I've had brothers trying to
Speaker 1: push me to that, to that that place. I want
Speaker 1: to work at Apple. I just too much. You can
Speaker 1: buy it, but you mean you buying it at a
Speaker 1: podcasting Apple Music Jackson, what's up with that? Actually? Seen
Speaker 1: years on an independent level, I've been doing it. I
Speaker 1: got a label call Man, I wrote at d V
Speaker 1: on this christ at one time perfectly got an artist
Speaker 1: by the name of Bill Ray. God damn it. So
Speaker 1: I haven't foreseeing this internet thing wrong when we was

Speaker 1: so he took control over all the studios and Electric
Speaker 1: Lady show that the Warner brother people could be listening

Speaker 1: Let to a come on my side for Prince and
Speaker 1: fight right one too three don't want you about it.
Speaker 1: We lost somebody in Miami hip hop profile producer Prest
Speaker 1: and Peace things God bless man Rest. So what do you?
Speaker 1: What do you? What do you guys want to leave
Speaker 1: the hip hop and hip hop couse? Remember you for
Speaker 1: one day each one of y'all. Individution three black men
Speaker 1: struck together through it all. Yeah, I did this this
Speaker 1: stick together. He has been together for mad you know.
Speaker 1: So poly hate each other, yea love each other, but
Speaker 1: y'all brothers, they're like your little brothers. And ye know,
Speaker 1: I know I've got a partner. We we did till
Speaker 1: you got no other way, did it this way. We
Speaker 1: We're gonna finish it this way, you know. If anything,
Speaker 1: Let's change the landscape. Let's get our roses while we're
Speaker 1: alive and every day, you know. And that's where this
Speaker 1: whole issue lies with, you know, individual one you know,
Speaker 1: and the label, and you know, I just want to
Speaker 1: really just continue to do what we do, what we
Speaker 1: love to do. I love detail and making music. Man
Speaker 1: created a little producing it. They love what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: you know. And as you see, where the ideas go
Speaker 1: with business is because of what we've gone through. So
Speaker 1: of course we can see ourselves in these executive positions
Speaker 1: on some form or another, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Just to make it right for the future, And like
Speaker 1: Dave was saying, legislation that's really more important, you know,
Speaker 1: changing the laws of how things have been structured, you know,
Speaker 1: because even with the streaming, it's still a little green
Speaker 1: area that if you look at it, it's still a
Speaker 1: grey area, you know what I mean, It's were making
Speaker 1: change right here right now, and it's a mentality that
Speaker 1: you're trying to do your best to get rid of,
Speaker 1: you know, in terms of the industry as a whole.
Speaker 1: You know, like funny enough, like it's like saying that
Speaker 1: everyone makes such a big deal about this red maga hat.
Speaker 1: It's like it's still like a mass I had, like
Speaker 1: a make artist slaves again. It's like you've got to
Speaker 1: get rid of that whole mentality for the entire record
Speaker 1: company is know what I'm saying, It's that had running
Speaker 1: around so out of being seen, and you know, the
Speaker 1: intention saying that I was a night man should going
Speaker 1: to my whole body and you said that, but the
Speaker 1: same question to you the last thing you give hip hop,
Speaker 1: you know, just honestly for me, just we were creative
Speaker 1: dudes who had fun and shout I have just trying
Speaker 1: to be blessed at giving the best we could. But
Speaker 1: in this industry and this music, for me personally, I
Speaker 1: kind of got a ca what maaze it? I mean,
Speaker 1: I hopefully, hopefully we could be the model of trying
Speaker 1: our best to make it work. It isn't always pretty,
Speaker 1: it doesn't always feel good, but at the end of
Speaker 1: the day, you know, I mean, in some cases, not
Speaker 1: all cases, if you work hard enough and you appreciate
Speaker 1: the magic that you make with the people in your circle,
Speaker 1: it's kind of hard to go find it elsewhere. You know,
Speaker 1: you want to keep that magic going. And I think
Speaker 1: that's what hip hop for me is. I know what
Speaker 1: it is when you get that moment where you hear
Speaker 1: that beat, it's like, oh, you know you write that
Speaker 1: versus about the magic in it, right, It's like how
Speaker 1: it feels yeah, yeah, And I think even whether it's
Speaker 1: it's it's we're talking about hip hop as a body.
Speaker 1: So what you guys are doing here, it feels good.
Speaker 1: It's a magic. And I think when you can when
Speaker 1: you can show that we could come together sometimes worlds
Speaker 1: apart and keep something going and build from it and
Speaker 1: make it better and it create new things, that's important. Man.
Speaker 1: That's that's what I would want to You don't want
Speaker 1: to embody, you know, as you know what the daylock do,
Speaker 1: like just the idea of staying together through thinking thin
Speaker 1: and making things work and giving that example of others
Speaker 1: to let them know that it's possible for them as well.
Speaker 1: You can you can sit three man group, got me goals,
Speaker 1: got the box. What do you think y'all rank yourselves?
Speaker 1: I mean, what do you what do you what do
Speaker 1: you think? I mean, I can't say ranking number, but
Speaker 1: I always say the future town, right, So I think
Speaker 1: right now we'll probably be that group, that three group,
Speaker 1: three man group that stayed together. That's that's the only
Speaker 1: thing I want to believe that we could lide on.
Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna say the meigo's gonna break up
Speaker 1: or whomever gonna but you know, staying together, we'll probably
Speaker 1: hold that record. I think we're gonna hold that record.
Speaker 1: It's more, it's more than a business. Yeah, it's more
Speaker 1: than business, and it's more to constantly it's safe to
Speaker 1: say that you guys haven't had a fair shot because
Speaker 1: it usually hasn't been the catalog that hasn't been introduced.
Speaker 1: Yeah it was, Yeah, I mean, you know, it's it's
Speaker 1: a it's it's it's easy to say you're the best
Speaker 1: in your number one when you sit down and look
Speaker 1: at the facts, how long, right, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: When you look at the body of work and how
Speaker 1: long you've been in what you have done. That's that's
Speaker 1: what really kind of claims that we are the best
Speaker 1: of that category. So right now already is talk to
Speaker 1: me when you hit like. You know what I mean,
Speaker 1: You talk to me when you hit like, teld to
Speaker 1: me when you hit five. Yeah, just just just just
Speaker 1: just to you know, reiterate something. UM fans understand, because
Speaker 1: we don't want to seem like the people just complain.
Speaker 1: I want to I want to be clear. What they
Speaker 1: are sold is saying that they that can rectify the situation.
Speaker 1: So the fans are clear. Now when we switched spoke
Speaker 1: to the label, we spoke everybody, but we're want to
Speaker 1: speak direct to the fans. This is what who needs
Speaker 1: this body to work? They need to wake up in
Speaker 1: the morning, go jogging and stream. You know what I'm
Speaker 1: saying these albums? So what what what does they like?
Speaker 1: So actually accent for to ractify the situation the fans
Speaker 1: do with what you call it? Um? You know the
Speaker 1: one I would sincerely asks, it's support of the fans
Speaker 1: and the culture. You don't press play if it actually
Speaker 1: comes up, it comes up online, you know, don't press
Speaker 1: play until we give it a go until we actually
Speaker 1: say YO, were happy. Thumbs up, guys, let's rock. We
Speaker 1: made up to kiss. We made up? You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Until we say we kiss the made up,
Speaker 1: do not press play. If anything you can get grind
Speaker 1: date you can. You can definitely get uh anonymous robody.
Speaker 1: You can get those two things, you know, and you
Speaker 1: know whatever else we put out with the Pete Primo record,
Speaker 1: look out for that one, and also look out for
Speaker 1: l Y three. I can get all that, but all
Speaker 1: the other stuff from Bionics on down to three ft
Speaker 1: high rising, don't press play there. There's nothing else I
Speaker 1: can do. Because let's be honest, fans are don't on
Speaker 1: the best places the day. That's your choice. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I'm saying they're gonna be that. You
Speaker 1: don't know that when you're doing that. What else outside
Speaker 1: the story is the story? The truth is the truth.
Speaker 1: One thing I know, people do feel conflicted. We felt conflicted.
Speaker 1: I want them to have it, I really do. But
Speaker 1: it ain't right period. So let's get it right. And
Speaker 1: if you want to support, don't press play. So we
Speaker 1: gotta make it catchphrasing. Put that out there. Yes, yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I concur because it's like it's like it's like like
Speaker 1: college captain feeling, you know, like people want to support Captain.
Speaker 1: People said want to watch this absolutely because you found
Speaker 1: the players out there. You know, people out there that's playing.
Speaker 1: You know you you're connected to the game your whole life.
Speaker 1: It's America's thing. Just like hip hop. It's America's thing.
Speaker 1: It's the world's thinking. It's an international fact. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: we ain't really still playing it fair. So I'm glad
Speaker 1: we got to accept to see this say this story
Speaker 1: the way it is because um, and I'm personally a
Speaker 1: witness that you guys are out here. You know, I
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, the older you get people out
Speaker 1: here complained. It's like that I personally know that everything
Speaker 1: you guys are saying it's the true because I'm in
Speaker 1: that boat. But yeah, I was like gonna say, like
Speaker 1: y'all on the front, I'm in the I'm in the
Speaker 1: back of the kid. But I know nothing. The less
Speaker 1: we listen ain't boss. It's just going down. We're all
Speaker 1: going that. I'm not happy you're going through that. We's hurt,
Speaker 1: you know, because it's instruing. It's the same as actually
Speaker 1: it's the same as it was a whole ship. And
Speaker 1: then that's one of the things. Unfortunately, it's like you know,
Speaker 1: power is the powers want to silence us daylong. Specifically
Speaker 1: what you said, I'm sorry, the power. I'm gonna call
Speaker 1: it the our individual one. And whenever they want to
Speaker 1: silence us, they cannot because they know brothers like you
Speaker 1: exist and that's got let's know we're gonna and it's
Speaker 1: and even Domino and even out even outside of that entity.
Speaker 1: And let me also give give the props to to
Speaker 1: pup daddy level vote staff. This is very important. Listen.
Speaker 1: Let me just tell you something. Every people we interview
Speaker 1: right now that should they're coming out to a June
Speaker 1: they pushing this up, they don't do that. They put
Speaker 1: in the cliff. That's how important this is. And le't
Speaker 1: just tell you something ship. They be people like we'll
Speaker 1: be trying late and they'll they front they these people
Speaker 1: we said day they said, let's go push it was
Speaker 1: the idea to push it up up to the vote.
Speaker 1: Sad you know that's holding us down. And they understand
Speaker 1: how important y'all message is that we know there's sometime
Speaker 1: the whole episodes like you know exhibit episode we could
Speaker 1: be damn into that ship last year. It's about this week,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because it's a time they
Speaker 1: thing for this show said, but this issue was so
Speaker 1: important that all of the staff got together, like everybody
Speaker 1: pick up Averca Rich everybody, which everybody all more people
Speaker 1: were um uh pick up to them? What was Michelle robbing?
Speaker 1: Um um sharis pick up to hold them like this
Speaker 1: issue was so important for hip hop to stand behind
Speaker 1: y'all and saying, you know what, y'all not alone. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like back then, whatever it was,
Speaker 1: we need to stand together, and we need ownership of
Speaker 1: these properties that we made. That's not blood, sweat and
Speaker 1: tears and sending to these albums. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: That's that's that's hard work. And you know we were
Speaker 1: all young and might have signed some dump ship as contract.
Speaker 1: Funk that that contract. Let's make it eve. It's a
Speaker 1: week and you know what we're not saying, even kick you.
Speaker 1: I try to buy the ship. I try to buy
Speaker 1: my ship towards world. I heard, I heard, I heard
Speaker 1: when I try to buy it was bright though it
Speaker 1: wasn't that more so um, but moving on, UM. So,
Speaker 1: I just wanted to let you know that I personally
Speaker 1: identify you know what I'm saying. Man, I wanted I
Speaker 1: wanted the fans to know because you know, this is
Speaker 1: always gonna be these these these young fast oh those
Speaker 1: old guys, and they don't understand what's going No, we're
Speaker 1: not here complaining, man, exactly. This is not a complaint.
Speaker 1: We're not out here, you know, chasing the check either.
Speaker 1: This is about doing the right thing. That's all that,
Speaker 1: and hopefully it'll Yeah, you know, the unfortunate thing in
Speaker 1: the record business, there is no good business definitely, you know,
Speaker 1: and unfortunately you know that's been the case for a
Speaker 1: long time. I mean movies like uh, what's the what's
Speaker 1: the name of that? Records and all that that's documented
Speaker 1: the same attainment's better for you, right, It's just right,
Speaker 1: it's this same thing. This is This is really about
Speaker 1: hopefully doing the right thing by the artists and respecting
Speaker 1: the culture. Man. We want we want folks to respect this, man,
Speaker 1: Like outside of outside of the culture, you'll need to
Speaker 1: respect this. You earn from it. You need to respect
Speaker 1: what we do and and and all offend us to
Speaker 1: being seventeen years old, signing the contract fresh out of
Speaker 1: high school working on Texico gas station. I was a
Speaker 1: record deal versus public guys at Texico. What you're gonna
Speaker 1: take that's real ship and and and having a following
Speaker 1: all the rules of what you learning vicariously through the
Speaker 1: music or like a rorist one who's actually saying your
Speaker 1: guys get a lawyer. Got out of your from set
Speaker 1: saying a guys, get a lawyer, shark d and this
Speaker 1: music he's saying the same thing, you know, when they
Speaker 1: want to dress different issues. So we've we've done that.
Speaker 1: We've done you know, we did our best to read
Speaker 1: our control and have a lawyer. This is Yeah, in
Speaker 1: addition to that, man like, what we're fighting for, it's
Speaker 1: nothing that we based our lives on. We didn't live
Speaker 1: off of royalties. We worked hard for life. So it's
Speaker 1: not like you know, we're you know, we're fighting because
Speaker 1: we've you know, uh, we've even been able to see
Speaker 1: what could come to us. We've never tasted any of that.
Speaker 1: We're just fighting for the fact that we can possibly
Speaker 1: need this stuff to our families. If you have any
Speaker 1: effect on any of this curt stuff, Yeah, trying to
Speaker 1: say they're trying to make up the money from that.
Speaker 1: I don't know what they're trying to do. Man, all
Speaker 1: we know they're on things and from the past ending. Yeah,
Speaker 1: things are still pregnant because that was all new back
Speaker 1: then for hip hop. Pretty much nobody knew that was
Speaker 1: gonna happen. Like you guys kind of opened that door
Speaker 1: to it. Yeah, I mean you figured hip hop was
Speaker 1: still very I'm load alive. You know, New York hip
Speaker 1: hop could be New York kipop, second hip hop and
Speaker 1: so on. So I mean, like, if you're talking about
Speaker 1: a record selling in New York, is gonna gonna sell
Speaker 1: a certain amount of copies. It was on the record
Speaker 1: companies to say to themself like, look, this is funny
Speaker 1: hip New York Philly d C. As a record company,
Speaker 1: you don't see that necessarily be cleared a sample because
Speaker 1: this ain't gonna really go on the way outside of that.
Speaker 1: And I'm also remember what I'm gonna also tell you
Speaker 1: what I think fuck up about the patrics. Right. What
Speaker 1: happened was we would they would ship out these records
Speaker 1: right at these records. So let's spose you shipped out
Speaker 1: five yeah, thirty days on the return of those fractors. Correct.
Speaker 1: If those brackets didn't return, they would automatically say your
Speaker 1: gold yea, yeah, yea, you know what to say. What
Speaker 1: I'm saying, you will automatically me gold. But you will
Speaker 1: immediately be old that drugs on. So you could like
Speaker 1: those records can actually come back. They had thirty days
Speaker 1: to come back and they didn't come back. Thir days
Speaker 1: they counted as a set and that's how they jerked us.
Speaker 1: That's one way the way making one of the ways. Right,
Speaker 1: things gotta be anyway, it's amaz that's not that was crazy.
Speaker 1: And then it was it was I remember, like you
Speaker 1: know you said it, you said it earlier. I remember
Speaker 1: like the charge of me for chip overseas then I've
Speaker 1: never been too. I was there, like you had a
Speaker 1: billboard and some they act then there was no internet,
Speaker 1: so I'm like, I had a billboard at Linda for
Speaker 1: you had you had a time square in Japan. There
Speaker 1: was no pitchers back then, but they would charge you
Speaker 1: for ship like that. You're like, what the fucking I know,
Speaker 1: how was that bug? You know what? I feel like
Speaker 1: I'm any church right now, I'm reaching that got the
Speaker 1: ghost of the Holy spirit air about people that we
Speaker 1: both know, but I won't air m out right now.
Speaker 1: They are friends of ours. When I worked in marketing
Speaker 1: that got caught with me by accident, faking ship that
Speaker 1: they were riding off to the artists getting paid in
Speaker 1: their pocket and I wasn't getting paid as the street team.
Speaker 1: And then by accident the check came to me accidentally
Speaker 1: to my DEMP Champ people. I people because they're friends,
Speaker 1: and I let them now. But I called him out
Speaker 1: at that moment and I said, I'm keeping this check
Speaker 1: because it's in my name, and they called me, don't
Speaker 1: give me someone that. No, no, no, no no no,
Speaker 1: certain get none of this jam. I don't know when
Speaker 1: you whistle it was a big check when you whistle
Speaker 1: about saying, I just yea, I'm just get like gonna
Speaker 1: the first because you know what what happened was the
Speaker 1: reps in the labels. They would overcharge for everything they
Speaker 1: did for for you guys know what I'm saying, and
Speaker 1: they would not purchase this or not pay for this.
Speaker 1: And when street teams, they were just happy. Street teams
Speaker 1: are fans I have. You could be working these records,
Speaker 1: so we would do whatever whenever for these arts and
Speaker 1: the street team makes that the guy running the street team,
Speaker 1: that the label would take advantage of that. I wasn't
Speaker 1: the guy to take advantage of. I'm just talking for myself.
Speaker 1: I would get was stubborn nick I was supposed to
Speaker 1: do stub stubb, I would right, That's what I would
Speaker 1: see it. That's where I'm knowing this type of sense.
Speaker 1: Let's check him in. I already knew what's happening, but
Speaker 1: I never had the proof of the check. Check Right,
Speaker 1: A check came in the mail for a lot of
Speaker 1: money for a big more day weekend. We usually get
Speaker 1: paid a little bit more Monday, more day we get
Speaker 1: in those days, but this time this check was this big, right,
Speaker 1: and this is when you was a bat to because
Speaker 1: we're not saying little. He was say you called me,
Speaker 1: hop you called me. He said, you've got to check
Speaker 1: out tail. I said, I guess you know this industry's
Speaker 1: we heard all the same stories that he heard. Yeah,
Speaker 1: people really appreciate whom we were as an artist as
Speaker 1: a group. You don't let us don't like look, man
Speaker 1: in your contract, somebody's holding a dirty Yeah, some crazy
Speaker 1: don't smell I don't know my man I don't want
Speaker 1: me from Coloma. Yeah right now, the said, damn man,
Speaker 1: we didn't learn any Come right he listen, I'm not
Speaker 1: smoking right there, man, just start that was sucking me
Speaker 1: up like this and trying to compete because he's she's strong.
Speaker 1: He got to smoke that outside. I don't know what
Speaker 1: he's smoking dad any week, Okay, it's just let's trapping.
Speaker 1: I want to try to keep a straight race now.
Speaker 1: Want Yeah, I'm not doing smell he smell right, it's
Speaker 1: keep go outside with that big It's all right, please, Okay,
Speaker 1: you got the kee the face race so right, because
Speaker 1: he's blow that I brought down definitely that make smokes
Speaker 1: something different. Smoke about you went to wall. I was
Speaker 1: saying how long we could have people and I don't
Speaker 1: need to put the names up there, but people from
Speaker 1: the label respectfully letting us know, like yo, you know,
Speaker 1: you know this particular single could have could have did this,
Speaker 1: but the machine pulled back because if it would have
Speaker 1: did what it was supposed to do, that it that
Speaker 1: was naturally doing, we would have got to growing money
Speaker 1: in being you know. So it's that type of stuff.
Speaker 1: I mean, like it was being at ship. It was
Speaker 1: being up at like Tim Guan Rush, like you know,
Speaker 1: just learning how you know these herd companies are signed
Speaker 1: artists as his tax right offs even like so you
Speaker 1: know the businesses and left them out on purpose and
Speaker 1: you know, give you that money so you can oh yeah,
Speaker 1: so many are you know they purposely tanked that person's career. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we had that with Mother Sippery from Miami, an amazing
Speaker 1: artist from Miami. We thought she was it. She was
Speaker 1: they called her the female nas come out of Miami
Speaker 1: and island music shelters. Uh, you know a ship man.
Speaker 1: You know. One thing we don't want to do is
Speaker 1: we got the mean gags. I see that you look
Speaker 1: at that's the British walking, but it's focus them. You
Speaker 1: just slided. Listen, man, I mean one thing I don't
Speaker 1: want to do is rash. Yeah. Definitely tell the story
Speaker 1: for what it is. You know, it's history. Yeah, history,
Speaker 1: what it is? You know it's bad history once again.
Speaker 1: But let's hope it's not a lot of you say
Speaker 1: that when you say bad saying listening in the business practice,
Speaker 1: but you guys have had a basic career. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: get business practice, but based on the perception of the
Speaker 1: company that represents hip hop and that Timmy Boy logo
Speaker 1: is the hip hop you know, that's the people stand
Speaker 1: You know, I'm representating the hip hop and still practicing
Speaker 1: the is this model that's that's definitely like slavery. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know it is the more of the story that
Speaker 1: none of these companies are really hip hop. Man don't
Speaker 1: represents you. We can't say they represent hip hop ultimately
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. Or business is business
Speaker 1: saying business empire, do you know what? Yeah, you know
Speaker 1: what you are. People are what you are, what you negotiate,
Speaker 1: you know what they are. Wrestle would say, yeah, you
Speaker 1: know what I know, and I can hear what you
Speaker 1: work and give you negotiate and say you get what
Speaker 1: you negotiate. You know what here it is. You know
Speaker 1: in times, you know, were making overcast ourselves or maybe
Speaker 1: even undersell our subs depending on the person you are,
Speaker 1: you know, depending on where you're at that moment in
Speaker 1: time in your life and what you need versus what
Speaker 1: you what your situation is at the time. You know,
Speaker 1: so it's all give and take here. It is, even
Speaker 1: hip hop at that time, it was independent for all
Speaker 1: of them. Deaf Jarem Tommy Aways select records. I mean
Speaker 1: from the time I have been conceiving it. Yeah, they
Speaker 1: were seeking from two you know, I think you know
Speaker 1: from what I do know, Tommy Boys relationship with Warren
Speaker 1: Brothers hadn't been with everything. They were still doing their thing.
Speaker 1: It's why they did penalty because I think they even
Speaker 1: saw themselves as a sonny. So I could see why
Speaker 1: you say they were major, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: because they didn't see themselves like that chap they've been.
Speaker 1: They've been in the game, went in a du cham
Speaker 1: when you think about it, you know, out Records doing
Speaker 1: that thing. You know how many albums as under you're
Speaker 1: having with them, six or six six album and then
Speaker 1: there's another album they made up on y'all right a
Speaker 1: life like a lot of kids. They staying stories. You know.
Speaker 1: They may have put up the fun Out album. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't even name that. That ship when they got to relax, Man.
Speaker 1: I just want to salute y'all so much. I just
Speaker 1: want you all to know that hip hop is with y'all.
Speaker 1: We with y'all, drink Champces with you. We know you're
Speaker 1: not out here uh complaining, y'all here talking the truth.
Speaker 1: I don't have complaining with what is y'all wish you
Speaker 1: which you be right from to y'all, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And um, I just want to salute you,
Speaker 1: you guys to your face. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I want to shoot you friend, like I want to
Speaker 1: try to culture that truly stuck up for us, you know,
Speaker 1: and helped us make the noise, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: And truly seen works really wrong with this whole thing,
Speaker 1: you know, And y'all honestly, whatever he decided to do
Speaker 1: is what he decided to do at this point. And
Speaker 1: you know, I want to move all my life And
Speaker 1: like I said, I just walking about said it earlier.
Speaker 1: He's when I spoke to I supposed want to do
Speaker 1: a third person am I took called Randy actor, so right,
Speaker 1: I said what he called in and he said he
Speaker 1: didn't run a coach. He said he wasn't hit by
Speaker 1: that bar. I was trying to get him a call,
Speaker 1: and he said that he didn't want to call in
Speaker 1: because he's actually trying to work it out with you.
Speaker 1: That's true, brothers, that's true. So he said he's trying
Speaker 1: to work it out with you. Brother, so he didn't
Speaker 1: want to mess this something by you know, getting on
Speaker 1: and something. So I respected that. But so that's true.
Speaker 1: That's okay, Yeah, okay, that's true. I mean that's that's
Speaker 1: what we're trying to do. That's what we were just
Speaker 1: trying to do. But because we just we just want
Speaker 1: to find an happy place with all this, and we've
Speaker 1: been we've been really open to, uh, all the dialogue
Speaker 1: coming in from people hearing about this, fans or even
Speaker 1: people just kind of like on the outside. Whether they
Speaker 1: can look so like if we support you, but it
Speaker 1: can be like you know, why did you but why
Speaker 1: did you sign this? So why did you do this?
Speaker 1: So hopefully man even on their side, hopefully they have
Speaker 1: people having a constructive criticism and speaking to them. If
Speaker 1: you see them, see Tom see you'll speak to him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think he can. I think he can listen to
Speaker 1: them to the interview and actually neither way, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm because there's a lot of people who need
Speaker 1: these albums. I mean, y'all want to need these albums.
Speaker 1: This is a part of hip hop, that's a periods
Speaker 1: helping hippop. We can't tell the story of hip hop
Speaker 1: and did not have that there, because right now it
Speaker 1: isn't there. It's just that there. That's like having an
Speaker 1: empty book that's not having and that's the book with
Speaker 1: no chat. And that's that's being able to see the
Speaker 1: dual value. The value is in the culture, in the
Speaker 1: history as well as your pocket. And if you only
Speaker 1: got a concept of one, that's where the problem lies.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm seeing Where y'all came in on
Speaker 1: this so young and early, maybe he should understand that, yo,
Speaker 1: you just he just has to break even on this
Speaker 1: to make more money in other areas. The white us
Speaker 1: to be the fire festival guy. Tom, don't be the
Speaker 1: fire festival guy. Tom. Don't mean that guy that I
Speaker 1: think that we have been able to sustain and achieve
Speaker 1: since they're back. We've been doing off things and been
Speaker 1: holding our corner, probably not been holding our horner, and
Speaker 1: probably never said anything right. I mean when they took
Speaker 1: whatever liquid. That's coming about this chance to say, you
Speaker 1: know what these are kids that I signed is the
Speaker 1: kids I was part of their career when and now
Speaker 1: they've grown men. Let me do business with them as
Speaker 1: something this is this is your turn to do that,
Speaker 1: and you can leave the web and say, you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna treat them like man. Maybe that contract for
Speaker 1: these kids that they signed when they were twenty seventeen
Speaker 1: doesn't hate culture and didn't directive part the situation and
Speaker 1: say you know what, I would be a business partner
Speaker 1: from here on out. Yeah. Partners, Yeah, it is the
Speaker 1: key word. Right. That was a good question. Sometimes good
Speaker 1: partners walk away and they and they don't don't want
Speaker 1: to walk away. I kind of log's dead. We cannot
Speaker 1: walk away. What I'm saying like he could not or
Speaker 1: maybe not or whatever I'm saying is being about him
Speaker 1: Georgia trying to bas storm with the language has been
Speaker 1: in the contract. He can't truly do what he wants.
Speaker 1: But really he doesn't have to say he can make it.
Speaker 1: He could make he can make it right the balls
Speaker 1: on his right. Hip Hop is looking at now. Now.
Speaker 1: Now it's not just y'all and him talk. That's true.
Speaker 1: It's hip hop true talking to him. Yeah. I need,
Speaker 1: I need, I truly believe, you know, he he should
Speaker 1: make the right decision. He should, he should, he should should.
Speaker 1: He shouldn't be shooting forward because that's what he will.
Speaker 1: I don't think he needs to help. I don't think
Speaker 1: he needs it. I don't think so. No, I think
Speaker 1: he's well off, So why not make the people and
Speaker 1: if he doesn't need to become good partners with these
Speaker 1: guys just to the right there right the opened doors
Speaker 1: from now more a better opportunities, opportunities, it all falls.
Speaker 1: And I don't trying to count his pockets, but exactly, Famulus, exactly,
Speaker 1: that's so little motherfucker's okay, I'm not. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you forgot to say, like because they brought to
Speaker 1: our attention, like when we was obviously all that Tommy boy,
Speaker 1: you came in to interview us or something, I was
Speaker 1: already interviewed. We was doing that then, damn like ninety
Speaker 1: three doing night gils in jail, just like a great story.
Speaker 1: You know. I don't know where that used to say, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you where I had to little cameras
Speaker 1: some amazing. I knew that then that was going to
Speaker 1: be the here of that. I don't know why I
Speaker 1: used to always feel everything, you know, I didn't know
Speaker 1: the internet it would be what is what I a
Speaker 1: better description? I knew information was instant, and he wasn't
Speaker 1: living in that time right right. I just knew that.
Speaker 1: Like That's what I was saying earlier was I was
Speaker 1: a paul that when I dropped the record, my fans
Speaker 1: in London wouldn't get it simultaneous, right, like that would
Speaker 1: bother who really did it? From me was mf door,
Speaker 1: that's because we don't even know if the nigga mumtaally
Speaker 1: I think it had seven shows and was like, I'm
Speaker 1: sure remember that all that work from him mysterious feeling
Speaker 1: like it's only a half full of dudes that could
Speaker 1: do a show, actually start up with show and not show.
Speaker 1: And he's want we're gonna remember you want to drink
Speaker 1: chance if you ain't know if you're saying, yo, have
Speaker 1: to wrap it up. I'm just trying to say, like
Speaker 1: back then even this think of cold it like yo, man,
Speaker 1: like this dude did a dope job, like he could
Speaker 1: do this ship. Like he said that then like about me,
Speaker 1: I was like, Yo, that's really you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So to see you doing this, God at least put
Speaker 1: my call night appreciated UNS. I swear god Yr story
Speaker 1: is so real. It's so real, so touching to me,
