Speaker 2: Man, all right, yo man, Bootleg CAV Podcast, Bootleg keV
Speaker 2: Show special guests here a legend, Lil Rob is here.
Speaker 1: Well, thank you, big dog, Thank you man. N it's chilling.
Speaker 1: What's going on, man, Just working on some new music.
Speaker 1: Man got a new album coming out November, third Man
Speaker 1: at the Winter, So it just started to come out
Speaker 1: here and hang out with you man and talk about it. Man.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's crazy because, like you we were just talking
Speaker 2: a little bit, you guys, Like you know, I talked
Speaker 2: to Bash a lot, and He's like, I'm busier now
Speaker 2: than I've been my whole career.
Speaker 3: Like you guys.
Speaker 2: I feel like every weekend I see you guys doing
Speaker 2: like three or four shows together.
Speaker 1: And I feel that too, Man, even me, I'm more
Speaker 1: busy this time than I ever was before too. And
Speaker 1: it's just different this time, and I appreciate it more so,
Speaker 1: like going out there and making the people happy and everything.
Speaker 1: So it's been a really good giant. Man. So you
Speaker 1: have me, Bash and Magic been doing these shows for
Speaker 1: the past that's like four years and uh and just
Speaker 1: rocking them, man, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Do you what do you attribute to that? Do you
Speaker 3: think it's like people?
Speaker 2: Because I think like music is kind of in a
Speaker 2: weird place where, like, you know, we don't have a
Speaker 2: perfect example, Like a lot of tours this past summer
Speaker 2: got canceled, but the ones that didn't get canceled were
Speaker 2: like fifty Cents Tour and with Khalifa and Snoops Tour.
Speaker 2: I feel like, for whatever reason, like if you're coming
Speaker 2: from a certain era, like the fans, I kind of
Speaker 2: missed that ship because the current music is it's.
Speaker 3: A little it's a little microwavable if you will.
Speaker 1: I mean, I like a little bit of everything.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: But I know who would have thought that back in
Speaker 1: the days we would write that kind of music that
Speaker 1: would last, you know, as long as it has man,
Speaker 1: and hopefully it lasts forever, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: But to be a part of that is really really dope.
Speaker 1: And and the fact that me and Fingers wrote a
Speaker 1: song called Summer Nice to kind of blew the hell
Speaker 1: up and and uh, yeah, that's what I've been surviving
Speaker 1: off for a long time. Dog's been that's crazy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yo, when you wrote the line right next to
Speaker 2: the Pacific to be specific, one of the hardest lines ever.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like a quick, essential little robine.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, you know I've heard people make fun of
Speaker 1: it sometimes, man, like, oh, you put those rhymes together
Speaker 1: out of each all the time. But hey, man, you
Speaker 1: know I used to live right there by the by
Speaker 1: the specific to be specific. So that's why, man, everything
Speaker 1: was written and not not s kitchen right there in
Speaker 1: my town, so you know, it's off on the beach.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say you kind of like when I
Speaker 2: think of San Diego. I mean, obviously recently there's been
Speaker 2: some dope dudes out of San Diego, but I think
Speaker 2: of you.
Speaker 3: I think jail felt me.
Speaker 2: I kind of think you guys are kind of like
Speaker 2: the yeah, the San Diego guys for you, Like you've
Speaker 2: been carrying that San Diego flag for so long, Like
Speaker 2: why do you think like San Diego still hasn't really
Speaker 2: popped yet in terms of like mainstream hip hop.
Speaker 1: I mean I don't really I don't really pay attention
Speaker 1: to like what's really going on or why why I
Speaker 1: don't hit? I mean, I guess if you just have
Speaker 1: a hit record, then it's just gonna It's just gonna happen,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like even me, like Summer Nights,
Speaker 1: I couldn't even stop it. I didn't try to write
Speaker 1: a hit record, but it just kind of happened that way.
Speaker 1: And I think that, you know, whatever the people are
Speaker 1: digging at the time, I guess you know a lot
Speaker 1: of luck, I guess too, you know everything.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of luck involved.
Speaker 1: With shine right place, right people and all that. You know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, I was gonna ask you for you
Speaker 2: like seeing kind of when you guys first came out,
Speaker 2: I feel like there was like the low rider circuit.
Speaker 2: Obviously radio supported you guys. There was kind of like
Speaker 2: this like very small collective of like Latin art or
Speaker 2: Mexican artists doing hip hop. Now I feel like it's
Speaker 2: gotten so big to where, like, you know, I never
Speaker 2: ever thought that I would like see like a guy
Speaker 2: like Paesel Pluma doing like the VMA's right, or a
Speaker 2: guy like are you a hip to that Mexican ot.
Speaker 3: Super dope? Like like I feel.
Speaker 1: Like too many of the jams or nothing like that, right,
Speaker 1: But when I have come across from him, way dope.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it just feels like the the like Mexican space
Speaker 2: and hip hop. And obviously I don't want to call
Speaker 2: pac hip hop because you're not. But the Mexican space
Speaker 2: and hip hop has grown to be like so so big,
Speaker 2: Like there's so many like independent artists, artist getting signed
Speaker 2: the major labels like and you guys are kind of
Speaker 2: like the forefathers of a lot of that.
Speaker 3: Ship, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure people were rapping everywhere, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, like in San Diego, in La and you know, I.
Speaker 2: Just be like in terms of like there being like
Speaker 2: a real like recognition of like what guys.
Speaker 1: I was able to see it with the social media
Speaker 1: and everything, you know, because back when I came up,
Speaker 1: it was uh, you know, proper those Yeah, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. There was empower leship brown as the
Speaker 1: tribe uh Spanish fly from the Harbor area that I
Speaker 1: would bomb.
Speaker 3: And then there was like shows like Pocos Pedals locals
Speaker 3: who would like.
Speaker 1: You know a little bit later.
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, you would have to like listen like Sunday
Speaker 2: Nights in Phoenix and be able to kind of discover
Speaker 2: all these artists. But I just feel like now it's
Speaker 2: like it's like so big, like you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 2: Like in terms of just the it feels like there's
Speaker 2: a real movement like for you, do you like, are
Speaker 2: you somebody who's gotten to the point in your career
Speaker 2: where you're looking to like sign any artists?
Speaker 3: Are you just kind of working on.
Speaker 1: Your own ship traveling kind of know who I was
Speaker 1: when I signed with the label, you know, and what
Speaker 1: kind of a headache I was to them, you know,
Speaker 1: but not showing up the shows and doing you know,
Speaker 1: they would set up shows and everything and I would
Speaker 1: have to, you know, go, but sometimes I wouldn't even
Speaker 1: show up for just one go or call them that
Speaker 1: same morning and say I'm not gonna make it after
Speaker 1: there's been promotion going on for that show and everything,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Too much partying, Uh nah,
Speaker 1: just not really wanted to get get on the road. Man.
Speaker 1: It wasn't really like a thing to me, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Right, A lot of bullshit have to
Speaker 1: pad too and stuff like that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: So I just wouldn't end up going and really enjoying everything. Man.
Speaker 1: So but nowadays it's very different.
Speaker 3: Is that why you said you appreciate it more this time.
Speaker 1: I appreciate it a lot more now, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. And it's not for the money, it's not
Speaker 1: for the likes, it's not for anything like that. Like
Speaker 1: this new album. Man, it's coming back for the fuck over,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Because I've been doing shows
Speaker 1: for a long time with Magic and Bash, and we've
Speaker 1: been selling them out, man, so that they're to check
Speaker 1: us out. Man, And they'd be asking me when it's
Speaker 1: a new music coming, and I never have an answer
Speaker 1: for him.
Speaker 3: So but now no, I do any features on the
Speaker 3: new album.
Speaker 1: No, I just saw me.
Speaker 3: Man, that's dope. I'm working with Fingers again.
Speaker 1: Because yeah, yeah, you haven't songs with Fingers. We have
Speaker 1: one jam on there might not make it, man, it's
Speaker 1: fun partly my favorite one on the jam, but on
Speaker 1: the thing. But trying to clear the sample, man and
Speaker 1: getting back at us. So we've got to clear that sample.
Speaker 3: Man. Yeah, that's tough. Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so your favorite song on the album might not
Speaker 2: make it because of a sample.
Speaker 1: One of my favorites. It's really like, you know, like
Speaker 1: repping and you know what.
Speaker 3: You know what can you tell tell us what sample
Speaker 3: it is?
Speaker 1: Uh? You know what, man, I can't even think off
Speaker 1: hand with it. It's hard to fight and oldie.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, they're hitting you for sure, they get in
Speaker 3: your pocket.
Speaker 1: It's a hard to find one. I am getting back
Speaker 1: at us.
Speaker 3: I said, oh, they're not even getting back at you.
Speaker 1: Now. We're waiting. We're waiting for I.
Speaker 2: Said, you just let a flo you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Sometimes you got to just let the sample fly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's see what happened.
Speaker 2: You know, there's a guy name There's a dude I
Speaker 2: know named Static Selector who's a big hip hop producer
Speaker 2: and he puts out albums and I always ask him
Speaker 2: because he's independent and.
Speaker 3: All his beats are sampled.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah yeah, And.
Speaker 3: I'm like, dude, you must have a hard time and
Speaker 3: he's like.
Speaker 1: Well, that's like that's like me too. With everyone's saying
Speaker 1: their favorite album is Crazy Life, and we were sampling
Speaker 1: everything that get my hand with breakbeats.
Speaker 2: And right now, that's why he's like, dude, we just
Speaker 2: drop it and like if we hear about it, it
Speaker 2: means music's doing well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah for sure.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you clear it later? Yeah, yeah, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean, yeah, talk about for you, man, how
Speaker 3: dope has it kind of been to? Like when?
Speaker 2: Because I feel like when you and I got into
Speaker 2: radio in two thousand and five, and I think the
Speaker 2: first time I might have saw you live is maybe
Speaker 2: like six or seven.
Speaker 3: But I was like.
Speaker 2: Working at a radio station in Phoenix when Neighborhood Music
Speaker 2: like popped off, like that ship was like a real wave.
Speaker 2: It was like that you had the song Neighborhood Music. Yea, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: you had to bring out the freaking you. Trying to
Speaker 2: think of all your radio singles that we played, those
Speaker 2: are the ones that come to my mind.
Speaker 1: We're better to getting by the god on the radio.
Speaker 2: Barely getting by. It was dope for sure, for sure.
Speaker 2: And then obviously summer nights is summer nights. But at
Speaker 2: that same time Magic had sexy Lady and obviously and
Speaker 2: be righters head.
Speaker 3: What they were doing. Is it dope to kind of
Speaker 3: be able to.
Speaker 2: Like like be side by side with a guy like
Speaker 2: Magic and be like, look how far we've come, Like
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, we go way back too, man, We've
Speaker 1: been in San Diego. Because I believe he wanted to
Speaker 1: sign me at one point or something like that.
Speaker 3: He wanted to sign you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so, yeah, yeah, I think so, I
Speaker 1: didn't work together and stuff, and I end up working
Speaker 1: with the same label and we ended up Upstairs things
Speaker 1: out yea Upstairs Records.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean Upstairs Records had everybody.
Speaker 1: So then we uh, you know, I would go out
Speaker 1: to uh. I went to Phoenix to work with with
Speaker 1: Magic and we did California and City everyone knows. So yeah,
Speaker 1: we worked together from the get go.
Speaker 2: And then obviously even like a guy like baby Bash
Speaker 2: who's kind of turned into everyone's favorite, like high uncle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I was just saying, man, I was on the way here,
Speaker 1: I was running a little bit late, and I was
Speaker 1: dressing not a little bit. So I started puffing on

Speaker 1: I got no opinion on it. You know. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: a trip though, But I don't look at myself like that,
Speaker 1: and I just kind of like and I think maybe
Speaker 1: that's why the people dig what I'm doing. I don't know,
Speaker 1: It's kind.
Speaker 2: Of works, right, I always wonder coming from San Diego,
Speaker 2: there's kind of like a weird like rivalry.
Speaker 3: Between San Diego and La.
Speaker 1: Uh huh.
Speaker 2: But and same thing with Phoenix, Like Phoenix in La
Speaker 2: has this big rivalry, especially when it comes to sports,
Speaker 2: but like La is like always embraced you, always embraced
Speaker 2: magic in such a crazy way for you, Like was
Speaker 2: it a little harder for you to be a guy
Speaker 2: from San Diego and break like up top in La
Speaker 2: or was it like pretty easy just because of what
Speaker 2: you were doing?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think it was pretty easy just because of
Speaker 1: what I was doing, you know.
Speaker 3: Yeah.

Speaker 1: was a big shout out to Spanish Flight from the
Speaker 1: Harbor area. I would listen to them man and always
Speaker 1: doug what they were doing with the oldie samples and everything. So,
Speaker 1: I mean that's kind of like where I started as so,

Speaker 1: La music all ready too, you know. Yeah, but this
Speaker 1: is way back in them like ninety ninety that like
Speaker 1: ninety or something.
