And if 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:19.200 it wasn't for that exact move, I wouldn't have one 0:03:19.200 --> 0:03:21.880 of the biggest hits of my life, which is nothing homeboy, 0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:23.240 I came to party, Let's make some noise. 0:03:27.560 --> 0:03:29.720 Why do you keep it so real with your artists 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:30.079 like that? 0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:31.640 Like you could have you could have you could have 0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:35.040 you could have like said it to me like nicer, 0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:35.640 but you didn't. 0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:43.360 So I want to do to you and to my artists, 0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:47.760 to my comrades, how I want to be done on 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:52.680 that wasn't that was in English? Let's do that again? 0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:56.680 Can someone help me? What's it saying? 0:03:56.760 --> 0:03:58.600 You try to do onto others how you would want 0:03:58.680 --> 0:03:59.560 to be done to yourself? 0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:04.720 So I only want the truth. I'm so tired of 0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:09.720 the cryptic language. I was telling people upstairs, there's this 0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:12.400 guy that I love in the door and his name 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:17.120 is Joaqum. And he used to say to me, it's 0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:20.360 all good. And I used to say, what the fuck 0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:24.400 does that mean? I want to shoot a DMX video tomorrow? 0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:29.479 He would say it's all good, and I'm I'm so 0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:33.760 exhausted trying to figure out what people mean. I just 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:38.599 want people to tell me exactly how I'm doing. 0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:40.920 I just did a speech upstairs. 0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:44.159 I go to Kevin. I said one to ten. He 0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:48.320 said four. I said, I said, how do I get 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:52.760 it to a ten next time? Okay, that's it. He 0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:56.440 didn't say it, Oh, it's a nine point five five. 0:04:56.839 --> 0:05:00.720 And you know what I'm saying, Because I just want 0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:03.720 to I want to improve, so you know, when you're 0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:07.159 on stage or when you're doing this, you want people 0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:10.159 around you that give you constructive criticism. You want to 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:21.560 be the biggest, the best podcast in the world. That's 0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:25.560 so anyhow, That's basically the reason why I keep it 0:05:25.600 --> 0:05:28.200 so gully is that's how I want it done to me. 0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:32.719 The reason why I never walked around with security guards 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:38.159 is real thorough people have Plan B, C, D, N E. 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:42.040 You don't get in trouble with thorough people if you 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:46.720 allow them the ability to go to their Plan B. 0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:51.000 If you retard their ability to go to Plan B, 0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:53.120 that's when you get in trouble. That's when you have 0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:57.159 to walk around with security guards. Okay, but you can't 0:05:57.200 --> 0:05:59.120 be mad at me when I tell you your records are 0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:04.240 stiff over no one cares or spinning it because then 0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:07.320 they could go to Plan B. But when you tell 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:10.039 them a stiff record, oh it's working, I need a 0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:13.240 few more weeks, and it just gets deeper and deeper, 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:15.600 and you get colder and colder. That's when you get 0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:20.279 in trouble. So I've always kept it very, very honest 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:23.240 and direct because that's just how I wanted. 0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:29.359 That's it's a beautiful thing now, Kevin Laws keV, I 0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.239 remember me being on the label and you did something 0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:37.119 that was like so important. You You made us stay 0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:40.400 on the road like the Red Man's, the Method Man's, 0:06:40.480 --> 0:06:44.560 the Noriega's, the Camerons, the Jewel Santana, the freeways at 0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:49.280 that time, and like we wouldn't get like the other 0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:51.920 side named. We were like I want to say b list, 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:53.720 but not b lists, you know what I'm saying. Let's 0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:57.119 not say be listen on the rise on the rise, 0:06:57.240 --> 0:07:00.359 And so we probably meted, never got the two million 0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:01.160 dollar bunchets, but. 0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:03.320 We would make that two million, but we would earn 0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:06.800 that two million, and it was almost like you felt better, 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:08.880 like you know what going out there? 0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:11.360 Why was that your approach? 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:14.640 Like the artist has to hit the road and touch 0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:21.080 them babies and and kiss kiss girlfriends and other people's girlfriends. 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:25.480 And I think what was important for me man I 0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:28.000 being a former artist, being being out on the road. 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:29.720 If you don't touch it, how you know what the 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:31.960 baggy feels like, how you know what the smell like? 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:32.560 You know what I mean? 0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.080 So I wanted you guys to always touch your fans. 0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:37.360 We like baggies, nor. 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:41.000 What's the new slogan? Fu the cake? We want the 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:43.480 bands you. 0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:47.640 Okay, don't. We don't got the champagne yet, all right, 0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:48.880 So I'm sorry. 0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:51.720 So it was just all about you guys, not not 0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:55.080 being distorted. You know, sometimes you have a hit record 0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:56.640 and you go by the big house and you sit 0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:58.640 up in the house with your friends and then you 0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:01.320 forget you know, really what made it, you know what 0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:03.840 I mean, and what it felt like to have that 0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:06.679 fan and even to this day is why the guys 0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:08.560 that you're name they can all go around the world 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:11.520 and make a living to that day because you kept 0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:13.720 touching the fans, kept touching the bag, and that was 0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:16.239 part of it. And now it's a loss. 0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:16.880 You know. 0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:20.440 Now you got labels, they'll say his. We're not worried 0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:22.680 about your tour, don't. We're not involved in that. That's 0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:23.440 your money. 0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:24.360 You know. 0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:27.120 If you fuck up on that, you fucking our money 0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:29.520 up too. So we got to make sure three sixty 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:32.840 three and six degree that you're always working. I never managed, 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:35.920 nor never managed any of the guys, but I always 0:08:36.160 --> 0:08:40.760 managed you. When shit went down, I got the call. 0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:42.760 I don't get what was going down when it went down. 0:08:43.360 --> 0:08:45.320 I got that call, so it was always in the road. 0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:46.439 Was a good friend to us. 0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:49.600 Okay, So now how hard was it for you guys? 0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:53.480 Because at one point when I thought def Jam, I 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:55.640 thought leol Kevin Russell? 0:08:56.440 --> 0:08:58.319 So how how how hard. 0:08:58.160 --> 0:08:59.840 Was it when it was like, you know, I know 0:08:59.840 --> 0:09:02.160 you went to Atlantic first before you started three hundred, 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:04.280 But how hard was that decision to say I'm gonna 0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:06.800 leave the place that you basically built? 0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:13.120 So let's be clear that I sold the company to Universal, 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:18.160 and I went to Island and Mercury and formed We 0:09:18.320 --> 0:09:22.360 founded Island Deaf Champ. So before Atlantic, there was five 0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:33.680 years you conveniently forgot. So listen, if you're not busy 0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:39.920 being born, you're busy dying. So that was beautiful. We 0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:43.760 make coffee table books. I flipped through the pages. I 0:09:43.800 --> 0:09:48.000 see friendly faces and moments in time that I adore 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:55.160 and love. But I'm about the present. So you know 0:09:55.640 --> 0:10:02.840 that whatn'ce was, it was a beautiful memory. It's nice 0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:07.360 that people recognize me and give me that for my contribution. 0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:13.080 But I don't live I don't you come to my house. 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:19.720 There's no f yi, this is who I once was. Okay, 0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:23.360 don't live off the past. No, So I'm only focused 0:10:23.440 --> 0:10:27.479 right here and right now. I want to continue, continue 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:33.000 to contribute, be a great partner to Kevin and my artists. 0:10:34.080 --> 0:10:36.840 And until I can't contribute, I'm going to be on 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:40.400 the court. And when I'm on the court and I 0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:43.480 go for that read, You're going to get tapped by 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:49.480 my elbows. Okay, simple as that. You know, it's funny, 0:10:49.559 --> 0:10:51.040 how about you? It's funny. 0:10:51.480 --> 0:10:51.760 You know. 0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:53.600 I came. 0:10:53.640 --> 0:10:56.880 I was from Baltimore, so me coming and as an intern, 0:10:56.920 --> 0:10:59.199 you get me coming up. We all thought of his 0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:03.600 intern Russell was a intention was mikey is. 0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:06.480 Are working at radio Shack, and then Russell Simmons hired 0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:07.480 them from Radio Shack. 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:13.840 Tower Records, Tower Records, shout out the guy. You know 0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:18.120 the thing with me, all of us, you kind us open. 0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:20.920 We blent death can it's not even a thing. And 0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:24.360 selling the company didn't mean we didn't still love and 0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:27.559 live for the company. Building a new company. But now 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:30.640 the deft and music didn't mean that we left hip 0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:35.360 hop our responsibility and always totally are I really only 0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:37.240 want to do this with him, you know what I 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:39.040 mean at the end of the day. But we got 0:11:39.080 --> 0:11:42.480 to continue to build the pyramid so we can continue 0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:45.040 to get bigger and employ more people and keep the 0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:45.720 culture moving. 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:49.920 So we never stopped. And I think right now what 0:11:49.960 --> 0:11:50.719 you're seeing. 0:11:50.440 --> 0:11:53.400 As a servants of young people who are living in 0:11:53.640 --> 0:11:58.040 today because they were native to the internet. Sometimes we 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:00.200 get caught up in our memories or what we did, 0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:05.160 and it impedes our possibilities because anything is possible for 0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:08.320 anybody to be alive today and don't feel anything as possible. 0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:11.080 So when Lea said, Yo, we want to do it again. 0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:12.720 You want to do another record company? 0:12:12.920 --> 0:12:16.400 I said, hell, yeah, we could. Now thought it was 0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:18.440 crazy to do it. I said, yeah, let's do it. 0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:21.840 So to me, if we're not reinventing ourselves every day, 0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:25.000 making ourselves better, putting more tools in our toolbox, I 0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:27.319 don't think we're gonna build bigger houses and better houses 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:29.280 and more places for people that live and growing. 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:34.959 So Kevin's always thinking about others. And I so appreciate that. 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:37.800 I just gave a speech for one thousand people upstairs 0:12:38.240 --> 0:12:41.000 and I made reference to the Cold Crush Brothers. 0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:44.880 And nobody knew what else I was about to say. 0:12:45.040 --> 0:12:48.679 So bold a smack, a man with his gun kiss 0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:51.880 his woman. This his mother and don't even run now 0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:56.640 that's boor and I had to hold that. Come on, 0:12:56.880 --> 0:13:00.160 they're going to see me wrapping here to explain who 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:03.240 the cold the panel with Charlie Chase too. 0:13:05.520 --> 0:13:06.160 One person. 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:08.400 I remember this is this is one of the best 0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:11.400 days of my life, right, me and you was trying 0:13:11.400 --> 0:13:13.840 to do business since nineteen ninety eight when I was 0:13:13.880 --> 0:13:15.800 on penalty records and you realized that I was the 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:17.320 only one moving on penalty records. 0:13:17.360 --> 0:13:18.920 I think he was trying to buy penalty at. 0:13:18.800 --> 0:13:20.600 First, and then he said, look it, I'm just getting nory, 0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:26.920 which is a smart move. So we was trying to 0:13:26.960 --> 0:13:29.160 do business for years. And then when I finally get 0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:34.680 to death Jam, I signed the papers and I believe 0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:37.840 you had crystal there.

DMX didn't 0:24:01.960 --> 0:24:04.639 put on an album. He changed culture. He did the 0:24:04.760 --> 0:24:10.200 first album changed culture. So part of being a good 0:24:10.560 --> 0:24:14.200 person is to ride the wave. And so and a 0:24:14.240 --> 0:24:17.359 lot of people X had one hundred records. X X 0:24:17.400 --> 0:24:21.159 felt rapping was his job. X L I wake up 0:24:21.200 --> 0:24:23.440 every day, I'm gonna do three or four songs, five 0:24:23.480 --> 0:24:24.040 or six songs. 0:24:24.200 --> 0:24:26.280 He took it. A lot of people X crazy. 0:24:26.280 --> 0:24:29.920 We know a guy, you know, but but his work 0:24:29.960 --> 0:24:33.480 ethic when it came to him doing music, he got 0:24:33.480 --> 0:24:36.920 he got a bibble, X got a bibble of good 0:24:36.960 --> 0:24:39.919 and bad, right or wrong. And so the world was 0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:44.679 ready for it. And Leo said, you know, let's do 0:24:44.760 --> 0:24:47.080 what that's that's throw them while we them and they 0:24:47.240 --> 0:24:49.240 they got us. They can't do what we do. And 0:24:49.560 --> 0:24:51.400 X came out. But then a lot of artists try 0:24:51.440 --> 0:24:52.760 to keep trying to kept trying to do it. 0:24:53.000 --> 0:24:56.879 Nobody, nobody was successful. But it I'm gonna give you. 0:24:56.920 --> 0:24:58.360 I'm gonna give you some real. 0:24:59.160 --> 0:25:02.800 You want the inside, I'm. 0:25:01.440 --> 0:25:01.919 Going to give you. 0:25:02.000 --> 0:25:03.840 I'm going to give you the inside. I was about 0:25:03.840 --> 0:25:06.640 to give up the game. I was about to retire. 0:25:07.119 --> 0:25:11.000 What No, Just before X I was about to retire, 0:25:11.720 --> 0:25:18.159 Puffy made everything technicolor and shiny, and bad boy was 0:25:18.240 --> 0:25:23.200 running shit on the shiny technicolor shit and def jam 0:25:23.600 --> 0:25:27.720 represents black and white and shades of gray. And I 0:25:27.760 --> 0:25:29.880 looked at my crew and I said, man, I don't 0:25:29.880 --> 0:25:33.080 think I can contribute anymore. 0:25:34.600 --> 0:25:37.760 And then I found X just. 0:25:37.720 --> 0:25:42.840 When Puffy made the Locks technicolor, and that's when I 0:25:42.880 --> 0:25:47.680 knew I had to pull out on him and start shooting. 0:25:48.440 --> 0:25:51.600 Okay, I carried in my breast pocket. 0:25:51.840 --> 0:25:56.520 A black and white photo of the album cover, a polaroid. 0:25:57.240 --> 0:25:59.640 It was X black and white. You remember that? 0:26:00.400 --> 0:26:03.879 And I said, this is the reason why I'm still 0:26:03.920 --> 0:26:08.400 gonna do this, because I was so infuriated of what 0:26:08.480 --> 0:26:13.800 they did to the Locks. Remember the Locks streaked motherfuckers, Yes, 0:26:14.000 --> 0:26:17.120 And they turned them into some high technicolor ship. 0:26:17.640 --> 0:26:22.280 And that was when we said enough is enough. And 0:26:22.320 --> 0:26:24.080 that's when X came on the scene. 0:26:24.160 --> 0:26:27.080 Because I remember even the video, the first video looked 0:26:27.080 --> 0:26:28.680 like nobody cared. 0:26:28.920 --> 0:26:30.720 It looked like Williams messed it up. 0:26:30.840 --> 0:26:34.000 We cared so bad. 0:26:34.200 --> 0:26:36.320 But what I'm saying it was so authentic. 0:26:36.480 --> 0:26:40.480 It was like at that time, you know, videos was cousted, 0:26:40.640 --> 0:26:42.840 it was costed, and for them to have like the 0:26:43.280 --> 0:26:45.800 record was exploding but the video was black and white. 0:26:46.000 --> 0:26:46.399 I'm like, what. 0:26:48.160 --> 0:26:50.800 They got a scheme and then the whole thing came out. 0:26:50.840 --> 0:26:53.080 But that was that was awesome.

It was when I first got to started 0:38:07.520 --> 0:38:10.240 going to depth Jam. But they had rushed associated labels 0:38:10.239 --> 0:38:12.680 in there. They had the violator, so you didn't have 0:38:12.840 --> 0:38:14.200 to actually be on depth Jam. 0:38:14.239 --> 0:38:17.080 But you can roll dice in the one sixty barrack. 0:38:17.360 --> 0:38:19.680 You didn't get your haircut in one sixty Varick, and 0:38:19.719 --> 0:38:22.719 you can also buy weed in one sixty Barrack. 0:38:22.760 --> 0:38:26.880 So artists didn't have to like yo, you think. 0:38:26.719 --> 0:38:30.120 About it when you first get signed, they get a check, 0:38:30.360 --> 0:38:33.080 but there's nothing that makes you that person that you 0:38:33.520 --> 0:38:34.640 just you just sold. 0:38:34.360 --> 0:38:35.239 To them that you are. 0:38:36.080 --> 0:38:38.360 So you're still streets. And that's why so many people 0:38:38.360 --> 0:38:40.520 get a check and then they catch a case because 0:38:40.880 --> 0:38:42.720 they catch a case cause they still in the streets. 0:38:42.760 --> 0:38:46.279 But that place right there gave artists a place to 0:38:46.320 --> 0:38:48.719 get the fuck out the hood, but still kind of 0:38:48.760 --> 0:38:50.920 beat hood because you go buy weed there. Let's make the. 0:38:53.600 --> 0:38:54.399 That record for the. 0:38:54.360 --> 0:38:57.319 Record in my next life as a politician. I don't 0:38:57.360 --> 0:39:00.560 know what he's talking about, but I wanted to want 0:39:00.560 --> 0:39:03.279 to say one of the Lyric's points were less create 0:39:03.320 --> 0:39:06.839 an environment that was about art. 0:39:07.520 --> 0:39:10.320 We always like that environment was done on purpose? 0:39:10.840 --> 0:39:11.760 Was it done on purpose? 0:39:12.120 --> 0:39:15.480 The outlay, how everything was, the you know, management records, 0:39:15.560 --> 0:39:17.480 everything was right here. 0:39:18.760 --> 0:39:19.520 It was It was crazy. 0:39:19.640 --> 0:39:30.880 I remember a time it was me Redman, Lebron, James Mellow, Uh, Scarface, Ludacrous. 0:39:31.080 --> 0:39:33.279 You never know. People came no matter where they were. 0:39:33.200 --> 0:39:36.360 They just came to hang out, to hang out. 0:39:36.360 --> 0:39:39.040 A video video that mad challenges. We'd ad a two 0:39:39.120 --> 0:39:39.920 or three in the morning. 0:39:40.560 --> 0:39:42.879 It was just a place where people and that that's 0:39:42.920 --> 0:39:47.240 just something Lyric has always wanted us to not felt 0:39:47.239 --> 0:39:49.200 like we was working, but it felt like we. 0:39:49.040 --> 0:39:51.080 Was communion, you know, being in the community. 0:39:51.120 --> 0:39:51.279 You know. 0:39:51.360 --> 0:39:53.719 Then when I went to the other building, it felt corporate, 0:39:54.360 --> 0:39:58.320 like it was we sold the company. It was also 0:39:58.360 --> 0:40:00.720 when one sixty fabric, that was when they were still 0:40:00.760 --> 0:40:03.640 all that makes sense. But you I just want you 0:40:03.640 --> 0:40:06.200 guys to know you saved a lot of rappers lives, 0:40:06.200 --> 0:40:10.400 maybe indirectly or not, or straight up directly because that 0:40:10.520 --> 0:40:10.759 was a. 0:40:10.719 --> 0:40:13.480 Hangout at one point. That was the place. Like I 0:40:13.520 --> 0:40:15.120 was on Violator, they would be like, yo, you know, 0:40:15.280 --> 0:40:16.080 just come one. 0:40:16.040 --> 0:40:19.319 Sixty Arrect and I'm talking about every artist Wu Tang 0:40:19.360 --> 0:40:20.840 would be up there. They was on loud, but they 0:40:20.880 --> 0:40:22.680 would still be up there, you know what I'm saying. 0:40:22.719 --> 0:40:24.960 And it was like and when I got older, I 0:40:25.000 --> 0:40:27.960 was like, yo, they created the hood that was in Manhattan. 0:40:28.480 --> 0:40:30.920 It was in the city. For us. That ship was 0:40:31.120 --> 0:40:33.520 the illis envinement. We need to make a documentary about that. 0:40:33.640 --> 0:40:47.520 We'll cut you in so three hundred I heard you guys, 0:40:47.680 --> 0:40:52.279 desks are in the middle of the whole. You guys like, 0:40:52.360 --> 0:40:55.560 that's front line ship. Why do you guys want to 0:40:55.640 --> 0:40:56.960 fuck it? Was? 0:40:57.000 --> 0:40:58.200 It motivation. 0:40:59.400 --> 0:41:00.160 Or know. 0:41:00.880 --> 0:41:01.520 Here's the thing. 0:41:03.360 --> 0:41:11.760 We never felt like outwardly facing things. We're representative of 0:41:12.400 --> 0:41:18.359 our influence, in our power, so we are very understated. 0:41:19.880 --> 0:41:23.840 Period are all the office you referred to was comfortable, 0:41:23.880 --> 0:41:29.640 but was understated. It was homie, So rock paper scissor. 0:41:29.960 --> 0:41:32.520 We go for the homie and not for the flashy. 0:41:33.600 --> 0:41:36.439 We want people to come in and recognize that work 0:41:36.520 --> 0:41:40.799 is getting done, not that we're putting our feet up 0:41:40.840 --> 0:41:44.560 on very expensive desk. We want all the money to 0:41:44.680 --> 0:41:50.319 stay on the screen. We don't want to waste money by, 0:41:51.160 --> 0:41:55.879 you know, trying to act important because we have flashier 0:41:56.040 --> 0:41:58.960 offices or bigger cars. 0:42:00.239 --> 0:42:04.560 It we're past that. We're in the rubber band stage. Okay, 0:42:04.719 --> 0:42:10.640 in the work in the street stage. I'm taking that. 0:42:11.920 --> 0:42:13.239 So now the young Doug. 0:42:13.280 --> 0:42:15.600 I want to speak about young Doug because at one 0:42:15.640 --> 0:42:18.040 point it kind of seemed like young Doug was actually 0:42:18.200 --> 0:42:20.960 on babies, cash money. Then he seemed like he was 0:42:21.000 --> 0:42:24.000 with Gucci Man, and then he seemed like and it 0:42:24.080 --> 0:42:27.680 was like when you stepped in, it kind of made him. 0:42:28.280 --> 0:42:30.799 It seemed like he's whole. Now it seemed like you 0:42:30.960 --> 0:42:33.680 was the right choice. Now was he originally signed at 0:42:33.680 --> 0:42:35.000 three hundred from the beginning. 0:42:35.640 --> 0:42:42.960 He was signed to Gucci, and Gucci signed his action 0:42:43.160 --> 0:42:48.480 to us, and we didn't feel that we needed to 0:42:48.600 --> 0:42:54.360 run around, and it wasn't critical to us that everybody 0:42:54.440 --> 0:42:59.359 knew and had to know. You know, you know, when 0:42:59.400 --> 0:43:00.560 I went to the Red Parrot. 0:43:02.400 --> 0:43:04.320 This is real, old school New York City. 0:43:04.960 --> 0:43:10.280 Continue, when Fat Cat came and he sat in that corner, 0:43:11.719 --> 0:43:12.400 he didn't. 0:43:12.160 --> 0:43:13.560 Just bring up he didn't. 0:43:13.760 --> 0:43:16.880 He didn't. He didn't. He didn't advertise that he was 0:43:16.960 --> 0:43:21.759 Fat Cat. But and it's more powerful who's the guy 0:43:21.800 --> 0:43:22.320 in the corner. 0:43:25.360 --> 0:43:29.359 So I like when people put their name, our name 0:43:29.560 --> 0:43:34.920 in their mouth because of the understated thing that we 0:43:35.040 --> 0:43:39.360 got going. You know, it's silly when I see people 0:43:39.560 --> 0:43:44.440 rolling with big security guys, big big, stupid security guys. 0:43:44.920 --> 0:43:48.800 The first ones to run, the first one. 0:43:49.920 --> 0:43:52.920 Okay, it's that little guy. It's that little guy you 0:43:53.000 --> 0:43:56.200 got to be worried about. Right, It's a little guy 0:43:56.280 --> 0:43:58.919 that you got to be worried about. You're gonna spill 0:43:58.920 --> 0:44:01.520 it now that you said that. Okay, all right, this 0:44:01.600 --> 0:44:02.239 is my friend Twin. 0:44:02.280 --> 0:44:04.000 He went to Vegas with eighty dollars and came back 0:44:04.000 --> 0:44:06.239 with twenty.

Is it three 0:44:24.360 --> 0:44:27.480 sixty based company or people? Can you know, get down 0:44:27.480 --> 0:44:33.320 with three hundred and contract sixty. We believe in three sixty. 0:44:33.360 --> 0:44:36.320 We want to be partners, partners, not you know, and 0:44:36.440 --> 0:44:38.960 we don't want to open up the barbecue restaurant and 0:44:39.000 --> 0:44:41.439 then you start selling barbecue shots out the back. 0:44:42.200 --> 0:44:43.520 You want to be involved in every We want to 0:44:43.520 --> 0:44:45.080 be involved in everything, you know. 0:44:46.400 --> 0:44:48.640 But there is the negative connotation to the whole You. 0:44:48.640 --> 0:44:52.480 Don't care about that. We don't pay any attention to 0:44:52.560 --> 0:44:53.799 the connotation. 0:44:53.560 --> 0:44:55.040 Because we go to work, right. 0:44:55.680 --> 0:44:58.440 Show has a negative because people, yeah, no, no, it 0:44:59.440 --> 0:45:03.600 is a negative connotation because no one did it before us. 0:45:04.280 --> 0:45:07.600 So that's why it has a negative connotation. And and 0:45:08.800 --> 0:45:13.680 you know the reality is we want to be just partners. 0:45:14.120 --> 0:45:17.319 You know, if we're going to invest our capital, our 0:45:17.400 --> 0:45:21.319 sweat equity. If you ask me, I'm going to open 0:45:21.400 --> 0:45:25.000 up a restaurant and I need some capital, what do 0:45:25.000 --> 0:45:31.719 you think the capital usually represents fifty to fifty right ownership. Now, 0:45:31.719 --> 0:45:35.920 imagine if I wasn't just capital. You came to me 0:45:35.960 --> 0:45:37.799 and said, you know, I don't know anything about the 0:45:37.840 --> 0:45:38.680 restaurant business. 0:45:38.719 --> 0:45:40.759 You know about the restaurant business, but I got this 0:45:40.840 --> 0:45:41.440 great idea. 0:45:41.520 --> 0:45:44.280 So not only am I putting up capital, I'm putting 0:45:44.320 --> 0:45:45.759 a sweat capital too. 0:45:46.640 --> 0:45:49.399 Time is money, you know, So I just I want 0:45:49.440 --> 0:45:49.960 to be if you. 0:45:50.080 --> 0:45:55.000 If it's successful and everybody loves the barbecue, then we 0:45:55.200 --> 0:45:58.600 go together and say let's make some barbecue sucks and. 0:45:58.560 --> 0:46:00.799 We But we've been doing it foot interrupt you. We've 0:46:00.800 --> 0:46:05.400 been doing it forever with the right artists. They always 0:46:05.440 --> 0:46:09.720 wanted us to be. 0:46:08.040 --> 0:46:10.600 Because essentially it's like your management. It's not only like 0:46:10.719 --> 0:46:14.920 the game. Listen, yea. Even with young. 0:46:14.719 --> 0:46:19.840 Boy, I care who he's opening for, what time is 0:46:19.880 --> 0:46:22.319 he going on? That's not that most record people don't. 0:46:22.440 --> 0:46:23.920 By the way, most of them don't even show up, 0:46:24.239 --> 0:46:27.640 you know what I mean. So so the reality of 0:46:27.640 --> 0:46:32.120 it is the conversations we have in uh seed funder 0:46:33.280 --> 0:46:36.000 early conversations. But you have to want to be my 0:46:36.040 --> 0:46:39.600 partner right now. And the labels built to have different 0:46:39.680 --> 0:46:41.799 kinds of deals for different kinds of people, whether you 0:46:41.800 --> 0:46:44.240 want to be an entrepreneur, start your own label, whether 0:46:44.239 --> 0:46:47.120 you want to be a straight artist, or but we 0:46:47.360 --> 0:46:51.840 have to be involved in your life.

We want to be on your 0:46:57.080 --> 0:46:57.760 board of the rats. 0:46:57.880 --> 0:47:00.480 Now that that involves movies that involved I don't give 0:47:00.640 --> 0:47:02.439 what you're doing. Do what what? 0:47:02.440 --> 0:47:07.360 What haven't we really done in any particular way. Business 0:47:07.440 --> 0:47:08.759 is business. But at the end of the day, if 0:47:08.760 --> 0:47:10.160 I'm going to invest in you and you're going to 0:47:10.200 --> 0:47:12.160 invest in me, then we will eat with each other. 0:47:12.239 --> 0:47:13.759 But l comes to you right now. 0:47:13.800 --> 0:47:16.800 It says Kevin Lows, I want to put out a record, 0:47:17.800 --> 0:47:20.719 and I only trust you and Leo. We talk about it. 0:47:20.719 --> 0:47:23.320 Will be it'll be an honor to put out his record, 0:47:23.719 --> 0:47:24.680 a fucking honor. 0:47:25.160 --> 0:47:30.600 Yeah, we talked about it too, North. 0:47:31.920 --> 0:47:32.080 I know. 0:47:36.760 --> 0:47:36.920 You know. 0:47:37.360 --> 0:47:38.000 Here's the thing. 0:47:38.520 --> 0:47:43.000 We live in the unique world of digital distribution. So 0:47:43.280 --> 0:47:45.360 I don't have to go so far on the limb 0:47:46.080 --> 0:47:49.440 to make a bunch of them and then spend a 0:47:49.440 --> 0:47:52.120 bunch of money to buy that real estate in the 0:47:52.360 --> 0:47:55.120 record store so we could get it on in a 0:47:55.280 --> 0:48:01.120 very inexpensive way that you could test the market in 0:48:01.200 --> 0:48:05.480 a innocent, honest, but effective way. 0:48:07.160 --> 0:48:09.200 I like this too. This is my favorite one so far. 0:48:09.400 --> 0:48:09.919 I'm just saying. 0:48:10.400 --> 0:48:15.880 I'm just saying, man, you know these are my my guys. 0:48:15.920 --> 0:48:19.120 A lot of CEOs they talked indirect to me. 0:48:19.320 --> 0:48:21.680 The reason why I appreciate our relationship with both of 0:48:21.719 --> 0:48:24.919 you guys is you even when I didn't like it, 0:48:25.120 --> 0:48:27.360 even when I didn't let First of all, this is 0:48:27.600 --> 0:48:30.640 one of the funniest stories. Was Fat Joe is trying 0:48:30.680 --> 0:48:33.520 to clear a job rule record, right. So Fat Joe 0:48:33.640 --> 0:48:36.600 calls me and goes, Yo, I'm going to bring the gangsters. 0:48:36.120 --> 0:48:38.480 People up there, and I'm going to see Leo Cans right. 0:48:38.680 --> 0:48:39.560 I'm like, don't do that. 0:48:39.640 --> 0:48:43.800 Fast, but Fat Joe's does it anyway, right, So he goes, 0:48:44.080 --> 0:48:47.000 I used to be Santa Claus for Russell Simmons ten 0:48:47.080 --> 0:48:48.520 years straight his kids. 0:48:48.920 --> 0:48:49.680 So he said. 0:48:49.680 --> 0:48:51.719 He goes to see Leo and he's like, le all, 0:48:51.760 --> 0:48:56.640 you gotta clear the record, and Leo said, no. 0:48:57.960 --> 0:49:00.120 You forgot one other part of it. 0:49:00.719 --> 0:49:04.960 I tell people, listen, in all due respect, the answer 0:49:05.000 --> 0:49:08.480 is no. And when you open the window up and 0:49:08.600 --> 0:49:11.440 fling me out the window and I'm just about to 0:49:11.480 --> 0:49:12.280 hit the concrete. 0:49:12.320 --> 0:49:13.680 The answer is still gonna be nom. 0:49:15.239 --> 0:49:17.879 So if it was gonna be different than I could 0:49:17.920 --> 0:49:21.120 understand you intimidating. But since it's not gonna be, you're 0:49:21.120 --> 0:49:23.239 gonna have to actually fling me out and find out, 0:49:23.320 --> 0:49:25.520 and then you're gonna end up in jail and fucked up. 0:49:26.280 --> 0:49:28.200 It's gonna be a sad day all the way around. 0:49:29.600 --> 0:49:34.439 And so they know, unbelievable. It's not no to get 0:49:34.440 --> 0:49:37.560 a yes. It's a no because it's no. It's with 0:49:37.800 --> 0:49:39.480 respect no, you know. 0:49:40.239 --> 0:49:43.279 And that's what makes you guys, hands down, that's what 0:49:43.360 --> 0:49:47.720 that's the longevity you guys are having is a direct 0:49:47.800 --> 0:49:52.040 effect through the realness that when artists, when you tell 0:49:52.120 --> 0:49:55.479 artists when they're younger, like so much things that you you, 0:49:55.480 --> 0:49:58.560 you guys both have taught me. Uh and I'll probably 0:49:58.640 --> 0:50:02.080 acted like I didn't listen back then, but I applied 0:50:02.440 --> 0:50:05.080 to my everyday life, like I don't apply math to 0:50:05.320 --> 0:50:07.879 my everyday life, but I applied things that you guys taught. 0:50:08.160 --> 0:50:10.440 Like the first time when me and Lee all tried 0:50:10.480 --> 0:50:13.439 to do business, he said to me, what are you doing? 0:50:13.440 --> 0:50:15.680 Today, I said a pun video. He said, I'll be there. 0:50:15.880 --> 0:50:16.279 Hung up. 0:50:16.360 --> 0:50:19.920 Nigga never asked for no information. Nigga never asked what states, 0:50:20.560 --> 0:50:23.719 which city. He said, I'll be there, and I was like, 0:50:24.320 --> 0:50:27.680 what that futad? An hour later he pulled up and 0:50:27.719 --> 0:50:29.399 you pulled up with Ja Ru. It's the first time 0:50:29.480 --> 0:50:31.440 I ever met Javu, who's one of my best friends 0:50:31.520 --> 0:50:33.799 right now, and he pulled up with Java in the 0:50:33.800 --> 0:50:39.440 town call. That's my man. But why when you want something, 0:50:39.920 --> 0:50:43.120 you just you find no way in the way you 0:50:43.160 --> 0:50:44.680 get what the hell you want? 0:50:44.920 --> 0:50:45.279 I don't know. 0:50:45.360 --> 0:50:50.960 That's pretty obvious ansor you know it's I think that. 0:50:53.120 --> 0:50:54.080 I'm a hard worker. 0:50:55.280 --> 0:50:59.160 I was raised right shout out to my parents in 0:50:59.200 --> 0:51:04.680 my family, and I don't want to ever embarrass them 0:51:04.880 --> 0:51:06.400 or embarrass my family. 0:51:07.080 --> 0:51:09.120 And let me put it to you this way. 0:51:09.160 --> 0:51:12.359 You're never going to go in the locker room and 0:51:12.400 --> 0:51:15.319 say what the fuck happened to you? You didn't show up. 0:51:17.520 --> 0:51:21.120 I'm the right person. If you have time, I'll tell 0:51:21.160 --> 0:51:24.760 you the real story. So you know how I'm funny, 0:51:24.800 --> 0:51:28.480 my accent is and you know how my name is spelled. 0:51:29.360 --> 0:51:33.000 So when I touched down in America and I was 0:51:33.040 --> 0:51:37.360 in a public school and after school program. They're choosing 0:51:37.440 --> 0:51:44.600 baseball teams, and motherfuckers chose me last because of my 0:51:44.680 --> 0:51:48.200 funny name and my funny accent. But I caught every 0:51:48.239 --> 0:51:52.520 fucking ball and I put everybody out the last time 0:51:52.960 --> 0:51:56.279 I was called last. So that's why, you know, I 0:51:56.360 --> 0:52:00.239 just have to work harder. I'm not that intelligent, I'm 0:52:00.280 --> 0:52:04.800 not that you know. I don't have an insane gift, 0:52:04.880 --> 0:52:07.879 but I'm ready to put it on people and work very, 0:52:08.000 --> 0:52:10.640 very hard on the movie. 0:52:10.680 --> 0:52:15.480 Man. 0:52:19.760 --> 0:52:23.839 I want to take it from the Run DMC days because, like, 0:52:23.920 --> 0:52:26.400 can you give us a run DMC story because you 0:52:26.520 --> 0:52:31.800 was a road manager, right, I'm proud. I'm proud. 0:52:32.719 --> 0:52:33.000 Uh. 0:52:34.160 --> 0:52:38.120 The thing that I use every single day more than 0:52:38.239 --> 0:52:42.360 anything was my road manager, my road experience, like Kevin 0:52:42.480 --> 0:52:46.120 was referring to the road. My road experience separates me 0:52:46.200 --> 0:52:50.319 from all those other people I compete with every day. 0:52:50.880 --> 0:52:53.920 So we have so many stories, from going up to 0:52:54.960 --> 0:53:02.640 Detroit and witnessing the young boys to Long Beach when 0:53:02.680 --> 0:53:07.720 all shit broke out and we're on the nightly news, 0:53:09.719 --> 0:53:15.880 the live aid and performing in front of that historic show. 0:53:16.960 --> 0:53:20.880 So many many beautiful stories. But I guess the biggest 0:53:20.920 --> 0:53:25.319 and most important story that tells you the fabric of 0:53:25.360 --> 0:53:29.360 who I am and the fabric of what we represent. 0:53:30.080 --> 0:53:33.880 And remember we represent the blue collar, the hard working. 0:53:35.080 --> 0:53:39.600 Is when we were selling two Joe Louis's back to back, 0:53:40.239 --> 0:53:43.640 two gardens, back to back, the spectrum, back to back. 0:53:44.360 --> 0:53:51.760 Our clique on the road was five Joey, d Jay, Runnie, 0:53:51.840 --> 0:53:56.960 Ray and Leor. We didn't have an entourage, big security guides. 0:53:57.640 --> 0:54:03.400 We carried our own luggage and before the curtain dropped 0:54:03.400 --> 0:54:05.880 and the music was finished, we're in the car on 0:54:05.920 --> 0:54:10.640 the way to the next city. So you know, all 0:54:10.920 --> 0:54:14.759 when I look at all these new rappers with their 0:54:15.200 --> 0:54:19.920 you know, fifty people entourage and these big security guards 0:54:19.960 --> 0:54:22.440 that all you have to say is boo and this 0:54:22.640 --> 0:54:33.759 start running running. It's it's like clowns security. And so 0:54:34.640 --> 0:54:37.440 that's the greatest story is we never missed a gig 0:54:37.640 --> 0:54:38.720 in three and a half years. 0:54:38.800 --> 0:54:41.480 Told me, okay, one gig one night. 0:54:41.600 --> 0:54:46.640 We did five shows in three different cities, three different states, 0:54:47.200 --> 0:54:52.120 five shows in three different states. We were mobile, we 0:54:52.160 --> 0:54:55.480 stayed out of trouble and we were onto the next city. 0:54:55.800 --> 0:54:59.200 And that's you know, you know, we were and grateful. 0:54:59.600 --> 0:55:02.000 Remember Fish spot. We used to eat that La pesca. 0:55:01.760 --> 0:55:06.200 Do absolutely absolutely that fish soup man. Fish. 0:55:09.080 --> 0:55:12.000 Watch Nori's face when I first shorted the fish shop. 0:55:13.520 --> 0:55:14.439 I'm not doing that. 0:55:15.440 --> 0:55:18.759 I'm looking like that. And then I gave spoon. I 0:55:18.840 --> 0:55:20.800 gave him a spoon and then boy. 0:55:20.960 --> 0:55:24.240 I was turned out from the fish soup spot. Every meeting, 0:55:24.440 --> 0:55:26.960 every meeting we had was around lunch. 0:55:27.400 --> 0:55:31.600 Why is noy he always booking. 0:55:34.080 --> 0:55:35.120 Pesca do no? 0:55:35.120 --> 0:55:35.279 No? 0:55:35.320 --> 0:55:37.440 This is this is one time right. I thought I 0:55:37.520 --> 0:55:41.600 was the man because this is when Leo walks into 0:55:41.680 --> 0:55:43.920 the door, they say fish man like this. It was 0:55:43.960 --> 0:55:46.160 like some big ship. So I started going there a lot. 0:55:46.480 --> 0:55:48.480 So I wanted to take Leo out one day and 0:55:48.520 --> 0:55:50.839 I was like, yo, and I took care of the bill. 0:55:51.239 --> 0:55:54.279 Lee all like your hold on whore you. 0:55:54.760 --> 0:55:56.040 Who you gave him? 0:55:56.080 --> 0:56:01.279 The bill called the ball. Yo. When the person's the man, 0:56:01.320 --> 0:56:03.879 you gotta let them be the man. You can't try 0:56:03.880 --> 0:56:05.800 to creep up with me. I learned their life lesson 0:56:05.800 --> 0:56:08.399 that day. Leo was pissed, not at me, He's mad 0:56:08.480 --> 0:56:10.160 at them, like this is my spot. I don't care 0:56:10.200 --> 0:56:12.719 how much he comes here. Remember I'm the guy who 0:56:12.719 --> 0:56:15.520 brunk man show that respect. 0:56:16.000 --> 0:56:18.879 This is real, Sonori, I'm gonna I'm going to say 0:56:18.920 --> 0:56:19.839 something before I leave. 0:56:19.960 --> 0:56:22.560 Okay, thank you for Kevin and Day they are going 0:56:22.640 --> 0:56:24.239 to stay. Don't to keep it going. 0:56:24.320 --> 0:56:30.040 So here's my thing. So what's the year twenty sixteen? Yes, 0:56:30.080 --> 0:56:31.799 I believe, Okay, I don't know. 0:56:31.840 --> 0:56:37.920 I don't even know. I only think about records.

Is that eighty two eighty three? 0:56:47.080 --> 0:56:50.920 You know? So I don't know if you've read. 0:56:50.680 --> 0:56:54.600 The recent report of the Youth of the rib A 0:56:55.800 --> 0:56:59.800 where for the first time in eighteen years, the business 0:56:59.840 --> 0:57:07.239 has has grown. I'm telling you, and I'm telling everybody 0:57:07.280 --> 0:57:12.640 that listens, if you're an entrepreneur and you want to 0:57:12.680 --> 0:57:15.400 get into a great business, not a good business, and 0:57:15.440 --> 0:57:21.040 get papered up, get into the music business, the record business. 0:57:21.520 --> 0:57:25.240 For the last two decades, the business has been shrinking 0:57:25.640 --> 0:57:30.920 and consolidating. So there are no deaf JEMs, no islands, 0:57:30.960 --> 0:57:36.280 no motowns, no A and M's, no. 0:57:36.320 --> 0:57:41.760 Chrysalis's boutiques, boutiques. 0:57:43.800 --> 0:57:47.360 This is a time for you to cobble together a 0:57:47.400 --> 0:57:52.960 little capital because it's not expensive and find stunning talent 0:57:53.960 --> 0:57:55.800 and putting them out in the marketplace. 0:57:56.360 --> 0:57:58.320 This is the moment in time. 0:57:58.440 --> 0:58:04.880 I've never seen a more fertile business environment as it 0:58:04.960 --> 0:58:09.840 is today. So your listeners, I know they love the 0:58:09.840 --> 0:58:13.680 nostalgia and the fun that you guys have, but all serious, 0:58:14.520 --> 0:58:15.880 all jokes aside. 0:58:16.680 --> 0:58:17.840 I do want to leave. 0:58:17.760 --> 0:58:25.960 You and your viewership with the absolute clarity that what 0:58:26.160 --> 0:58:31.280 better business that you can go tonight and record someone 0:58:31.760 --> 0:58:35.080 ship it the next day all around the world at 0:58:35.240 --> 0:58:42.160 zero costs, no manufacturing costs, no shipping costs, no obsolescence, 0:58:42.240 --> 0:58:48.480 no inventory, no everything digital and inexpensive and very efficient. 0:58:48.880 --> 0:58:52.840 Remember we used to make videos that cost us money 0:58:53.240 --> 0:58:57.960 to promote our songs. Now there's a YouTube that you 0:58:58.080 --> 0:58:59.720 put the video Now, this. 0:58:59.720 --> 0:59:04.600 Makes noise for abe you can get. You just put 0:59:04.640 --> 0:59:07.120 a video up and get paid for it. 0:59:08.040 --> 0:59:13.960 So I'm just saying, man, I'm tired of the highly 0:59:14.080 --> 0:59:16.160 concentrated industry. 0:59:17.080 --> 0:59:19.600 Now is the time. You may be too late if 0:59:19.640 --> 0:59:23.480 you keep waiting to get this paper. 0:59:23.600 --> 0:59:24.840 There's a lot of paper. 0:59:24.520 --> 0:59:27.360 Out here, and this is a great business, and I 0:59:27.440 --> 0:59:31.280 want you and your consumers to recognize how great of 0:59:31.320 --> 0:59:32.800 a business this cops. 0:59:32.960 --> 0:59:34.760 You enjoy streaming you think streaming. 0:59:35.000 --> 0:59:40.720 Streaming is such a friendly and wonderful consumer proposition. All 0:59:40.760 --> 0:59:44.240 the world's music for ten dollars a month. And it's 0:59:44.280 --> 0:59:48.320 the first iteration. My daughter doesn't want to hear classical 0:59:48.440 --> 0:59:51.400 music or African music. 0:59:51.760 --> 0:59:53.000 She likes the pop hits. 0:59:53.280 --> 0:59:58.040 Maybe as we iterate that business, her bill would be 0:59:58.080 --> 1:00:01.360 three bucks a month and she only gets the top hits. 1:00:02.080 --> 1:00:05.360 So it's just the infancy. You know that streaming is 1:00:05.400 --> 1:00:10.400 only a two three percent penetration, so just imagine when 1:00:10.440 --> 1:00:15.400 it's fifty percent penetration.
