<v Speaker 1>Jill.

0:00:01.280 --> 0:00:03.600
<v Speaker 2>You know what it is, another episode of the Gainst

0:00:03.640 --> 0:00:05.800
<v Speaker 2>the Chronicles podcast.

0:00:05.240 --> 0:00:12.239
<v Speaker 1>With your boy Big Steal in the house. Yeh yeah, yeah,

0:00:12.280 --> 0:00:14.680
<v Speaker 1>for sure. We got Soaring Baker back again, man, as

0:00:14.720 --> 0:00:17.919
<v Speaker 1>we knocked down this top fifty Gangster Rap albums of

0:00:17.960 --> 0:00:21.079
<v Speaker 1>all time. Man, you know people really take their music series.

0:00:21.079 --> 0:00:21.279
<v Speaker 3>Bro.

0:00:22.200 --> 0:00:24.439
<v Speaker 1>I've been having motherfuckers in the comments, man. They be

0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:27.639
<v Speaker 1>killing me. And I always tell them the list is

0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:30.200
<v Speaker 1>not complete yet. They're not even in numerical order yet.

0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:32.360
<v Speaker 1>We're just naming songs right now that are going to

0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:35.600
<v Speaker 1>go eventually that will wind up on that top fifty list.

0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:38.760
<v Speaker 1>They don't like that shit. They don't like that shit

0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:40.479
<v Speaker 1>at all. They tell me, you butter half some of

0:00:40.479 --> 0:00:42.400
<v Speaker 1>this on that you butter half some of that. But

0:00:42.520 --> 0:00:45.120
<v Speaker 1>they need what people need to realize, man, when you

0:00:45.159 --> 0:00:48.680
<v Speaker 1>start talking about music, it's very very subjective, man, and

0:00:48.720 --> 0:00:50.479
<v Speaker 1>it's all about your opinion. You can go out and

0:00:50.479 --> 0:00:53.519
<v Speaker 1>make your own list. You feel what I'm saying. I'm

0:00:53.520 --> 0:00:56.080
<v Speaker 1>pretty sure as we get closer to the top, we

0:00:56.240 --> 0:00:58.280
<v Speaker 1>have a lot of stuff that's the same, but some

0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 1>stuff like I'm pretty sure because you send me your

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:02.320
<v Speaker 1>list to day and usually me and you are pretty close.

0:01:02.400 --> 0:01:04.840
<v Speaker 1>I was like, damn, me and Soren got a couple

0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:08.360
<v Speaker 1>of them. We have a couple that are close, and

0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:10.720
<v Speaker 1>I guess we should probably just go ahead and run

0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:13.040
<v Speaker 1>throughout our list. You wanna run through mine first, you

0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:16.520
<v Speaker 1>want to do yours first, you should go first. Still, Okay, again,

0:01:17.360 --> 0:01:21.520
<v Speaker 1>these are not a numerical order. They are not a

0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 1>numerical orders. So I don't want to hear nobody on

0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Instagram telling me, hey man, how you got this or

0:01:25.880 --> 0:01:28.479
<v Speaker 1>that that's a bullshit ass list. But this is what

0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:33.360
<v Speaker 1>I got. I got we come strapped quick as the

0:01:33.480 --> 0:01:39.040
<v Speaker 1>name above the Law, Living like Hustler's se Bow, which

0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:40.640
<v Speaker 1>the gas Chamber.

0:01:42.120 --> 0:01:43.000
<v Speaker 4>That's a masterpiece.

0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:46.319
<v Speaker 1>Right then Tupac Me Against the World, fifty cent get

0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Rich doc Trying the Truth by Benny Siegel, Banging on Wax.

0:01:50.520 --> 0:01:52.680
<v Speaker 1>I had to go back on that one. Banging on Wax.

0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:55.120
<v Speaker 1>I had to revisit the album Brother Link, Season of

0:01:55.160 --> 0:02:01.760
<v Speaker 1>the Sickness and Easy Eat it's on one eighty seven killer. Yeah.

0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:03.400
<v Speaker 5>I got a lot of those. Some of those I

0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:06.320
<v Speaker 5>don't have. But that's that's pretty thorough right there.

0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:08.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I want to go back to something though, because

0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:10.840
<v Speaker 1>we always had these debates on which should be considered

0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:14.600
<v Speaker 1>against the Rap. As you know, I've been wanting to

0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:16.560
<v Speaker 1>put Tupac's Me Against the World on there. To me,

0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:19.680
<v Speaker 1>it's his best album. It's even better than All Eyes

0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:21.600
<v Speaker 1>on Me, something I normally get killed in the comments

0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:25.120
<v Speaker 1>for that. But I think Me Against the World was

0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:27.639
<v Speaker 1>a phenomenal album and it definitely was a gangst the

0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:30.079
<v Speaker 1>rap album. To me, it was definitely some gangster stuff.

0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:33.880
<v Speaker 5>It's definitely my, in my opinion, pop's best album. I

0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:39.480
<v Speaker 5>think it's the most introspective and when you look at

0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:39.959
<v Speaker 5>it too.

0:02:39.800 --> 0:02:40.919
<v Speaker 4>To me, it reminds me.

0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:44.840
<v Speaker 5>In a lot of ways of like a Scarface album

0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:51.920
<v Speaker 5>and stealing with a lot of paranoia and doubt, frustration, impression, anxiety.

0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:54.280
<v Speaker 5>And that's of course because he was going through his

0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:59.440
<v Speaker 5>legal situation at the time and was behind bars, so

0:03:00.360 --> 0:03:03.520
<v Speaker 5>or knowing he was about to be behind bars for it.

0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:07.480
<v Speaker 5>So it's a lot of angst in the album, and

0:03:07.560 --> 0:03:10.919
<v Speaker 5>I think it's a lot of introspection. It's brilliant, man,

0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:12.000
<v Speaker 5>It's a brilliant album.

0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:16.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think one of my favorite joints on that

0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 1>was different around the corner. It was just like a

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:20.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of pair of noise on there and just you know,

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:22.880
<v Speaker 1>just that that last verse, he just killed it. I

0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:26.840
<v Speaker 1>was raising the city shit niggas, drinking liquor out my

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:30.720
<v Speaker 1>mama's titties and smoking weed was everyday thing in my household,

0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:33.880
<v Speaker 1>and drinking liquor to you out cold? Yeah you fuck

0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:34.400
<v Speaker 1>with that ape.

0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:35.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:37.760
<v Speaker 1>I thought that was one of his coldest albums, man,

0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:43.840
<v Speaker 1>And I thought about man would get rich Dyke trying.

0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:46.760
<v Speaker 1>I think that was like fifty cent Man. He just

0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:49.040
<v Speaker 1>knocked out the park with his debut.

0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:51.080
<v Speaker 4>I got one. I got that one A little higher

0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:51.360
<v Speaker 4>in the.

0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:54.040
<v Speaker 1>List, yeah, and I had a higher initially, bro, But

0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:57.040
<v Speaker 1>it's just so much great stuff in the top twenty.

0:03:57.080 --> 0:03:59.040
<v Speaker 1>I didn't really see nothing worth. It was a lot

0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:02.160
<v Speaker 1>of stuff the world was. But again, it's just my opinion,

0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:03.720
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. It may wind up steal

0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:06.720
<v Speaker 1>up there. You know, it may very well wind up

0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:09.360
<v Speaker 1>steal up there. I know. Eight. I guess we would

0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:11.120
<v Speaker 1>have to excuse him from doing a list because he

0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:12.520
<v Speaker 1>just he like everything. Man.

0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't give a damn. I just go through

0:04:17.800 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 2>you know songs that I you know, it's all kind.

0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:21.560
<v Speaker 2>It's because it's errors.

0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:21.800

<v Speaker 5>song and you hear the different changes the songs go

0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:53.720
<v Speaker 5>through while they're being recorded, and then they hear the

0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:56.880
<v Speaker 5>versions that get released, and as you also both know

0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:00.280

0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:23.280
<v Speaker 5>Rhythmalism also, uh, and I got partially because of eight,

0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:24.400
<v Speaker 5>Prelude to a.

0:09:24.400 --> 0:09:25.920
<v Speaker 4>Come Up, I got Cypress Hill four.

0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:27.600
<v Speaker 1>That to me is.

0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:31.320
<v Speaker 5>As we'll see with some of my other selections with

0:09:31.440 --> 0:09:32.400
<v Speaker 5>eight being on here.

0:09:32.440 --> 0:09:34.559
<v Speaker 4>But that's one of my favorite.

0:09:34.280 --> 0:09:36.840
<v Speaker 5>Verses as well as your soul Assassins from the first

0:09:36.880 --> 0:09:39.400
<v Speaker 5>album that I think people don't talk about as much,

0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:42.439
<v Speaker 5>but prelude to a Come Up? Who off Cypress Hill

0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:44.199
<v Speaker 5>for If y'all don't remember that, man, you need to

0:09:44.240 --> 0:09:44.839
<v Speaker 5>go check that.

0:09:44.800 --> 0:09:46.400
<v Speaker 3>Because that Yeah, that was.

0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:46.720
<v Speaker 1>That was.

0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:48.160
<v Speaker 4>That's an incredible song.

0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:48.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that was.

0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:55.960
<v Speaker 2>That was one of my first introductions to fucking with mugs.

0:09:57.280 --> 0:09:59.000
<v Speaker 4>You guys work phenomenally well together.

0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:03.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, mus my peoples, man, you know, you tend to

0:10:03.480 --> 0:10:06.640
<v Speaker 2>meet different dudes, you know when you production wise, as

0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:10.160
<v Speaker 2>far as you know, coming from the West Coast, motherfuckers

0:10:10.200 --> 0:10:15.000
<v Speaker 2>always feel that, I guess your sound should be one

0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:21.120
<v Speaker 2>particular way, and I've always just managed to work well

0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:26.320
<v Speaker 2>with all kinds of producers, from fucking from Slip to

0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 2>fucking and Banks to fucking Dash to Mugs to fucking

0:10:33.679 --> 0:10:35.640
<v Speaker 2>Pete Rock to Premiere.

0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:36.440
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:39.760
<v Speaker 2>So I like to get versatile when I do music, man,

0:10:40.040 --> 0:10:42.679
<v Speaker 2>I don't like to just stick to the same fucking format.

0:10:42.840 --> 0:10:46.200
<v Speaker 2>So that was mixer. You know, I've always been a

0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:53.680
<v Speaker 2>fan of Mugs, from fucking from Cooling in Cali days man, Yeah, yeah, definitely,

0:10:55.920 --> 0:10:56.600
<v Speaker 2>And that was one of.

0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:57.520
<v Speaker 3>My favorite cuts.

0:10:57.559 --> 0:11:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Man, I don't give Cooling and Cali I was. I

0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:04.319
<v Speaker 1>was in Ohio listening to this.

0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:06.320
<v Speaker 3>And that ship was, man, that ship was cracked.

0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:06.800
<v Speaker 1>Man.

0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:10.320
<v Speaker 2>So I've always been a Mugs fan, you know, so

0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:12.880
<v Speaker 2>just being able to be able to work with Mugs

0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:16.000
<v Speaker 2>and you know what the work from Cypress Hill to

0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:17.720
<v Speaker 2>like you said, being able to be a part of

0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:19.120
<v Speaker 2>the solo Assassins to.

0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:23.000
<v Speaker 4>Have you all heard the new soul assassin sol Sassin three.

0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was cracky.

0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:29.120
<v Speaker 2>I'll actually uh, I probably didn't make it on there,

0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:31.439
<v Speaker 2>but he had sent me a beat to do a

0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:34.280
<v Speaker 2>song with a death and the dude you know the

0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:38.839
<v Speaker 2>weed song. Yeah, it's pretty tight. So yeah, shout out

0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:40.680
<v Speaker 2>to the Mug. Shout out to mugs Man.

0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:42.040
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:47.520
<v Speaker 5>So, and I think too because Doctor Green Thumb was

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:51.480
<v Speaker 5>the big single off four, I think a lot of people.

0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:54.840
<v Speaker 4>Compared to their first three albums.

0:11:54.840 --> 0:11:56.839
<v Speaker 5>I think because Doctor Green Thumb the video was a

0:11:56.880 --> 0:12:00.800
<v Speaker 5>little funny, I think they didn't give the album.

0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:01.520
<v Speaker 4>As much of a chance.

0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:05.120
<v Speaker 5>But he's got you know, be real, I think is

0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:08.400
<v Speaker 5>it's hard to say he's underrated, but he's underrated I.

0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:11.200
<v Speaker 4>Think as a storyteller, as a lyricist and styles.

0:12:11.280 --> 0:12:16.120
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, yeah, definitely any good friend too many be

0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:19.000
<v Speaker 2>real as always. You know, It's been on a lot

0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:22.160
<v Speaker 2>of my songs, a couple of projects. We've always worked together.

0:12:23.120 --> 0:12:26.120
<v Speaker 2>He's another one of those cats that I can just

0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:29.280
<v Speaker 2>pick up the phone and be like a b you know,

0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:32.400
<v Speaker 2>blop blop, and two days later there is the verse

0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:36.679
<v Speaker 2>or whatever. So and he's one of them artists man,

0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:39.319
<v Speaker 2>that's so versatile. You know, he's even though he come

0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:42.520
<v Speaker 2>from the West Coast, Southgate, you know, from the streets

0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:46.559
<v Speaker 2>and whatever. But they music, man, it's just so fucking worldwide.

0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Man.

0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:49.679
<v Speaker 2>They in a different category, if you ask me, They

0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:52.040
<v Speaker 2>rock stars exactly.

0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:52.920
<v Speaker 4>And a different category.

0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:57.800
<v Speaker 5>The thing that really shocked me with the four album

0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:00.760
<v Speaker 5>is because on the first cybers So you had the

0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:03.280
<v Speaker 5>Pig song, and then on this album he had Through

0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:05.000
<v Speaker 5>the Eyes of a Pig where he wrapped it from

0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:08.040
<v Speaker 5>the perspective of the cop and he was talking about

0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:11.440
<v Speaker 5>all the dirt he was doing, and like, I just

0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:14.120
<v Speaker 5>remember hearing that song for the first time and never

0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:18.560
<v Speaker 5>thinking I would hear a song like that from such

0:13:18.559 --> 0:13:21.280
<v Speaker 5>an artist, and it just blew. Like you're saying, he's

0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:23.600
<v Speaker 5>so versatile, it blew my mind. I was like, this

0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:24.920
<v Speaker 5>song is crazy.

0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:28.320
<v Speaker 1>Be real is definitely underrated though, man, and while we

0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:31.520
<v Speaker 1>talked about underrated stuff, it didn't make the list, but

0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:35.680
<v Speaker 1>y'all fuck with Psycho Rehm. Of course, definitely that war story,

0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:38.360
<v Speaker 1>that one and two. Man, I came real close to

0:13:38.360 --> 0:13:40.160
<v Speaker 1>putting them the list because this is dope. Those are

0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:41.040
<v Speaker 1>dope ass album.

0:13:41.120 --> 0:13:43.839
<v Speaker 5>Speaking of Mugs, he did a great album with six Jacking.

0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:48.040
<v Speaker 4>By the way, Oh my goodness, muggs is he's incredible.

0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:50.560

<v Speaker 1>I give you a beat. He said that I was

0:14:18.200 --> 0:14:21.400
<v Speaker 1>herb I was gone home and I get up there, man,

0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:23.520
<v Speaker 1>and we got us in this hotel that's supposed to

0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:25.040
<v Speaker 1>hunt it. I forget the name of it is, but

0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:28.000
<v Speaker 1>it's downtown LA. And when I tell you, man that

0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:30.560
<v Speaker 1>the energy and the vibes in that hotel was spooky

0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:32.720
<v Speaker 1>as the motherfucker. I couldn't wait to get out of there, man,

0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:35.320
<v Speaker 1>because he had me in this dark ass room playing

0:14:35.320 --> 0:14:38.320
<v Speaker 1>a suit like snatching somebody from behind the corner. And

0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:40.280
<v Speaker 1>I forget the name of the song man, but shout

0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:41.960
<v Speaker 1>out to six Jack and the cycle rim Man. They

0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:45.080
<v Speaker 1>got some incredible music, that's for sure. They that's some

0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:49.120
<v Speaker 1>incredible music. One of the things, man, as we go

0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:51.960
<v Speaker 1>through this list man with gangster rap man, I think

0:14:52.040 --> 0:14:56.080
<v Speaker 1>a key component that we always speak upon is the

0:14:56.200 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 1>art of telling the story. Yeah eight t some immaculus story.

0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:15.680
<v Speaker 1>Because I've been listening to more of your music lately,

0:15:15.800 --> 0:15:17.520
<v Speaker 1>just to get, you know, back in the vibe of

0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:19.200
<v Speaker 1>the list. I've been listening to a lot of stuff.

0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:22.040
<v Speaker 3>Perspective yeah, yeah, yeah, they give you.

0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:31.760
<v Speaker 1>A little perspective, man, him be real ice Cube even

0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:36.160
<v Speaker 1>Snoop Man. The West got some great storytellers, man, that's

0:15:36.160 --> 0:15:38.880
<v Speaker 1>for sure. The West Coast has some great storytellers, I

0:15:39.000 --> 0:15:41.720
<v Speaker 1>tell you too. And this is up more top towards

0:15:41.800 --> 0:15:43.200
<v Speaker 1>the top of the top ten, and I think we

0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:45.440
<v Speaker 1>would all have this in the top ten. Not to

0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:48.120
<v Speaker 1>get too far ahead of ourselves, but Ray Kwan, the

0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:52.640
<v Speaker 1>Purple Tape, just the whole story of the album, man,

0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:57.240
<v Speaker 1>just from the beginning of the end. Ill album, Man, very,

0:15:57.640 --> 0:16:00.400
<v Speaker 1>that's ill album you got? You got that in your

0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:00.840
<v Speaker 1>top ten.

0:16:01.880 --> 0:16:04.400
<v Speaker 4>No, I don't have that as a gangster album.

0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:07.920
<v Speaker 1>You don't think that was a gangster album. I think

0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:09.280
<v Speaker 1>it was East Coast gangster for.

0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:13.240
<v Speaker 5>Sure, it is, but it's not to me. It's not

0:16:13.320 --> 0:16:15.200
<v Speaker 5>gangster though what you say.

0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:22.520
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't consider it gangster rap either. Gray Kume's one

0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:25.840
<v Speaker 2>of my peoples I just think it's on a different

0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:30.360
<v Speaker 2>It's it's a criminology rap man.

0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Well, I think that. See to me, gangster ship is

0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:36.400
<v Speaker 1>criminal shit. All that is criminal shit. It's like gangsterism,

0:16:36.520 --> 0:16:40.360
<v Speaker 1>but from East Coast perspective. That's what I think anyway, I.

0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:42.200
<v Speaker 4>Just don't think it has enough well to me.

0:16:43.880 --> 0:16:49.440
<v Speaker 5>Most of my selections directly are about the gang banging

0:16:49.520 --> 0:16:54.080
<v Speaker 5>life right heavily involved in it, directly or indirectly.

0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I think as I lean more towards the D boys.

0:16:56.600 --> 0:17:01.520
<v Speaker 2>Shit, yeah, see you you because at one point you

0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:07.440
<v Speaker 2>considered Rick Ross gangster ship. That's hustle music, man, that's

0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:11.800
<v Speaker 2>D boy music. That's not that's not gangster music. Rick

0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Ross ain't telling you he doing drive buys on niggas.

0:17:15.280 --> 0:17:18.000
<v Speaker 2>Rick Ross telling you he got model bitches on the

0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:19.520
<v Speaker 2>yacht coming.

0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:19.520
<v Speaker 1>From the.

0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:21.600
<v Speaker 4>Thing.

0:17:22.440 --> 0:17:26.159
<v Speaker 1>If you're getting your earning your money from the listen activity,

0:17:26.480 --> 0:17:28.440
<v Speaker 1>you a gangster to me. If you if you've earned

0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:31.040
<v Speaker 1>your money from alsted activity, you're selling dope. You got

0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:33.760
<v Speaker 1>the bad bitch with you. You got a jarweed, a nice

0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:35.920
<v Speaker 1>guard gold weed like that. When I showed you just now,

0:17:39.760 --> 0:17:43.080
<v Speaker 1>that's not what we consider gangsterism.

0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:45.480
<v Speaker 3>We consider that d boy.

0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:50.919
<v Speaker 2>Ship like like money man ship. Gangster ship is not

0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:57.520
<v Speaker 2>a nigga who is worried about like the type of

0:17:57.600 --> 0:18:01.720
<v Speaker 2>champagne he drinking and ship what you know he's gonna

0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:05.760
<v Speaker 2>buy woman or yeah, or or you know or if

0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:09.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm on a private plane or not. I'm I'm a

0:18:09.280 --> 0:18:11.480
<v Speaker 2>gangster nigga. I don't get a nigga nigga. You put

0:18:11.480 --> 0:18:14.159
<v Speaker 2>me on the handlebars of a beach cruiser nigga, and

0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:16.639
<v Speaker 2>I'll do a drive by on the nigga nigga.

0:18:16.680 --> 0:18:19.080
<v Speaker 3>I don't give a fuck, nigga. My draws can cost.

0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:22.199
<v Speaker 2>My draws cost twenty dollars from the swap meet, not

<v Speaker 1>a different taste of I forget the name of it

0:26:33.119 --> 0:26:35.320
<v Speaker 1>wasn't quite fifty, it was like forty five. Then we

0:26:35.400 --> 0:26:40.480
<v Speaker 1>ordered some mother shit, man. But you definitely develop a

0:26:40.480 --> 0:26:43.159
<v Speaker 1>different palette when you start getting some money man for

0:26:43.280 --> 0:26:47.040
<v Speaker 1>different shit. And I'm gonna tell you this my thing

0:26:47.119 --> 0:26:49.080
<v Speaker 1>for a minute. I went through my phase, my phase

0:26:49.160 --> 0:26:51.640
<v Speaker 1>with the cars SUVs. Remember when they first started coming

0:26:51.680 --> 0:26:53.840
<v Speaker 1>out with the Lincolns and all that and the Navigators.

0:26:54.359 --> 0:26:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I was in those, man. I would go to a

0:26:55.960 --> 0:26:59.080
<v Speaker 1>dealership man and drop like seventy or something dog, then

0:26:59.160 --> 0:27:01.320
<v Speaker 1>go to the rim shot, spend another ten fifteen and

0:27:01.440 --> 0:27:03.680
<v Speaker 1>just be round the street, just and I would pull

0:27:03.760 --> 0:27:04.880
<v Speaker 1>up on everybody I knew.

0:27:07.000 --> 0:27:12.520
<v Speaker 2>I think everybody did that, and you though with especially

0:27:12.520 --> 0:27:14.600
<v Speaker 2>if you came from a struggle and you got your

0:27:14.600 --> 0:27:19.840
<v Speaker 2>first piece of money. I think everybody wanted to show

0:27:19.880 --> 0:27:22.200
<v Speaker 2>their success around as far as.

0:27:22.080 --> 0:27:25.040
<v Speaker 1>But I shared what motherfuckers though. You share with people though,

0:27:25.080 --> 0:27:27.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, And that shit got old

0:27:27.680 --> 0:27:28.639
<v Speaker 1>quick as a motherfucker.

0:27:29.200 --> 0:27:30.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you learn quick.

0:27:30.280 --> 0:27:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Man.

0:27:30.520 --> 0:27:34.080
<v Speaker 2>You can't share your wealth too much, man, because people

0:27:34.080 --> 0:27:37.840
<v Speaker 2>will taking advantage of your situations, you know, especially if

0:27:37.880 --> 0:27:41.920
<v Speaker 2>they think of your shit came easy as far as

0:27:43.000 --> 0:27:45.720
<v Speaker 2>that music shit, you know what I'm saying, That came

0:27:45.800 --> 0:27:50.080
<v Speaker 2>easy and hard as the difficult as a motherfucker. And

0:27:50.160 --> 0:27:52.640
<v Speaker 2>the worst part about the music shit though, is that

0:27:52.960 --> 0:27:56.439
<v Speaker 2>there are so many lies being told about these deals

0:27:56.480 --> 0:27:59.840
<v Speaker 2>and different things like that. Like I remember they said

0:27:59.880 --> 0:28:01.879
<v Speaker 2>that when Glasses first signed, They was like, yeah, he

0:28:01.960 --> 0:28:06.320
<v Speaker 2>signed for one point five million. I was like, yeah, yeah,

0:28:06.320 --> 0:28:10.159
<v Speaker 2>I remember that. That that was going around everywhere yeah,

0:28:10.720 --> 0:28:11.800
<v Speaker 2>and you know what, you know.

0:28:11.760 --> 0:28:14.840
<v Speaker 1>What was crazy? He would tell motherfuckers and they just

0:28:14.880 --> 0:28:17.359
<v Speaker 1>couldn't understand. I feel so sorry for Glasses because you know,

0:28:17.400 --> 0:28:19.480
<v Speaker 1>he was new, Like I would hear him on the

0:28:19.480 --> 0:28:22.800
<v Speaker 1>phone like cuz I don't have Like, what do you mean,

0:28:22.840 --> 0:28:24.800
<v Speaker 1>how did to help you your mama keep her house?

0:28:24.840 --> 0:28:27.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't have money like that, you know, outside of

0:28:27.760 --> 0:28:30.399
<v Speaker 1>you telling somebody what you actually got, people really know you.

0:28:30.440 --> 0:28:32.680
<v Speaker 3>Why did they publicized it like that? Then?

0:28:33.119 --> 0:28:35.359
<v Speaker 1>Man, I guess that's just to make a motherfucker look thing.

0:28:35.480 --> 0:28:36.960
<v Speaker 1>But he never came out of his mouth and said

0:28:37.040 --> 0:28:42.680
<v Speaker 1>that that was all the machine, the machine and Black

0:28:42.760 --> 0:28:46.280
<v Speaker 1>Wall Street, and so theoretically his deal was worth one

0:28:46.280 --> 0:28:47.120
<v Speaker 1>point five minutes.

0:28:47.200 --> 0:28:47.640
<v Speaker 4>That's the thing.

0:28:47.760 --> 0:28:52.400
<v Speaker 5>Still they say the deal is one point five but that's.

0:28:52.400 --> 0:28:56.000
<v Speaker 4>If you hit escalators. You sell certain things, you gotta.

0:28:55.840 --> 0:28:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Do certain things, and you gotta put the album. And

0:28:58.240 --> 0:29:00.400
<v Speaker 1>it's just like with the podcast ship like I hear

0:29:00.480 --> 0:29:03.080
<v Speaker 1>motherfucker's talk, but not that I'm in nobody else's business.

0:29:03.080 --> 0:29:05.200
<v Speaker 1>I hope these brothers out here getting every dime they can,

0:29:05.840 --> 0:29:07.920
<v Speaker 1>like shout out to everybody out there getting that money.

0:29:07.960 --> 0:29:10.080
<v Speaker 1>Salute to y'all. I don't have a hating bone in

0:29:10.120 --> 0:29:14.280
<v Speaker 1>my body, but it puts people in a bad position

0:29:14.440 --> 0:29:18.560
<v Speaker 1>when they hear these overinflated deals. First of all, if

0:29:18.560 --> 0:29:21.960
<v Speaker 1>someone comes to give me thirty five million dollars, right,

0:29:23.000 --> 0:29:25.720
<v Speaker 1>that's a lot of responsibility. Right, They're not going to

0:29:25.840 --> 0:29:27.800
<v Speaker 1>just give me thirty five million. I may get a

0:29:27.800 --> 0:29:31.120
<v Speaker 1>piece of it when upon signing, I may get another

0:29:31.160 --> 0:29:34.120
<v Speaker 1>piece after the first season airs. There are too many

0:29:34.160 --> 0:29:36.000
<v Speaker 1>there are too many variables. It's a lot of shit

0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:38.880
<v Speaker 1>that can happen between somebody give me thirty five million

0:29:38.880 --> 0:29:40.360
<v Speaker 1>and I go out there and getting a car accident.

0:29:40.400 --> 0:29:42.000
<v Speaker 1>I ain't hear no more. It's money gone. You ain't

0:29:42.000 --> 0:29:44.640
<v Speaker 1>getting that money back. No, you're not getting it back.

0:29:44.680 --> 0:29:47.239
<v Speaker 1>So a lot of this stuff is really overinflated, or

0:29:47.280 --> 0:29:49.440
<v Speaker 1>it might be spread up, you know, it's usually split

0:29:49.480 --> 0:29:49.840
<v Speaker 1>up the seas.

0:29:50.280 --> 0:29:56.000
<v Speaker 5>Like people talk about these NFL, NBA, even baseball, even

0:29:56.040 --> 0:29:58.600
<v Speaker 5>though I don't really follow baseball. It's like when the

0:29:58.680 --> 0:30:01.000
<v Speaker 5>dude signs a two hundred MILLI and dollar contract, they

0:30:01.000 --> 0:30:01.600
<v Speaker 5>don't give him.

0:30:01.480 --> 0:30:03.720
<v Speaker 4>A check for two hundred million. That's not four or

0:30:03.760 --> 0:30:06.480
<v Speaker 4>five years. And it's all these claus.

0:30:06.200 --> 0:30:07.960
<v Speaker 1>A lot of little clauses. If you go out playing

0:30:08.000 --> 0:30:11.479
<v Speaker 1>basketball the same like the thing is about the NFL

0:30:11.520 --> 0:30:14.160
<v Speaker 1>in particular, if you go out there, if you sign

0:30:14.200 --> 0:30:15.840
<v Speaker 1>the contract and you go out the next day, you

0:30:15.880 --> 0:30:17.560
<v Speaker 1>play with your son in the yard and you slip

0:30:17.560 --> 0:30:21.480
<v Speaker 1>on the mother, it might avoid your shit. You might

0:30:21.520 --> 0:30:23.040
<v Speaker 1>not get the rest of that money though.

0:30:23.360 --> 0:30:25.280
<v Speaker 5>It's all in the language of the contract. That's the

0:30:25.320 --> 0:30:26.160
<v Speaker 5>important part of it.

0:30:26.240 --> 0:30:28.160
<v Speaker 1>You may not get that money. And you know what,

0:30:28.320 --> 0:30:30.800
<v Speaker 1>podcasts and everything else. I tell people all the time,

0:30:31.080 --> 0:30:33.480
<v Speaker 1>But Joe Rogan got this. I also say, yeah, Joe

0:30:33.560 --> 0:30:36.560
<v Speaker 1>Rogan show is very valuable as well. He has a

0:30:36.600 --> 0:30:39.320
<v Speaker 1>lot of listeners on all platforms. See some podcasts do

0:30:39.400 --> 0:30:41.479
<v Speaker 1>good on YouTube, but they don't do shitt in audio.

0:30:41.920 --> 0:30:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Some podcasts do well on both. And he's in that

0:30:44.400 --> 0:30:48.680
<v Speaker 1>rare spectrum to where you know, on YouTube and thing

0:30:48.800 --> 0:30:51.960
<v Speaker 1>and the police believe Spotify got all that shit. You know,

0:30:52.080 --> 0:30:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Joe Rogan ain't uploading else to YouTube. They gave him

0:30:54.800 --> 0:30:56.000
<v Speaker 1>all that money they got, that's.

0:30:55.880 --> 0:30:59.000
<v Speaker 3>All they shit now, Yeah, definitely.

0:30:58.840 --> 0:31:01.120
<v Speaker 1>That's all they shipping now. I think people really got

0:31:01.160 --> 0:31:03.040
<v Speaker 1>a twist. And people would sit up there and argue

0:31:03.080 --> 0:31:06.160
<v Speaker 1>with you and then would tell you the business that

0:31:06.200 --> 0:31:10.240
<v Speaker 1>we participated in it. We actual participants in you just

0:31:10.280 --> 0:31:13.440
<v Speaker 1>hating because they got the bag. Why would I care?

0:31:13.720 --> 0:31:15.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, it don't hurt me neither one. I love

0:31:15.880 --> 0:31:18.160
<v Speaker 1>seeing people get money, man, especially in the same lane.

0:31:18.200 --> 0:31:21.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean because that shoot and shit, yeah we're gonna

0:31:21.200 --> 0:31:22.920
<v Speaker 1>be able to get it. Check our value is up now,

0:31:22.960 --> 0:31:26.040
<v Speaker 1>you know. But man, no, like that is just too

0:31:26.120 --> 0:31:27.920
<v Speaker 1>much stuff that can happen, man, And I think that's

0:31:27.920 --> 0:31:31.080
<v Speaker 1>the biggest thing that hurts kids in the community because

0:31:31.080 --> 0:31:33.120
<v Speaker 1>our salt glasses go through that shit and people thinking

0:31:33.160 --> 0:31:35.480
<v Speaker 1>he had money that he didn't have and he had money,

0:31:35.520 --> 0:31:37.360
<v Speaker 1>but then people forget too. You got to go do

0:31:37.400 --> 0:31:38.320
<v Speaker 1>your album off that shit.

0:31:39.200 --> 0:31:44.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's a lot of people tend to take.

0:31:45.000 --> 0:31:47.120
<v Speaker 3>You know, people really probably don't.

0:31:46.920 --> 0:31:49.960
<v Speaker 2>Give a fuck, man, And not too many people are

0:31:50.000 --> 0:31:53.600
<v Speaker 2>familiar or educated with contracts and what you know, as

0:31:53.640 --> 0:31:56.920
<v Speaker 2>far as recoupment and all other shit and what this

0:31:57.040 --> 0:32:04.320
<v Speaker 2>is paid for. So, motherfucker alls, nigga, you got a video. Nigga,

0:32:04.320 --> 0:32:06.400
<v Speaker 2>you got a video in the song on the radio,

0:32:06.520 --> 0:32:10.280
<v Speaker 2>So nigg you got a billion dollars And that's when

0:32:10.360 --> 0:32:13.200
<v Speaker 2>all of you know, do for me come and whatever.

0:32:13.320 --> 0:32:17.000
<v Speaker 2>So that's why I said I've always tried to stay

0:32:17.080 --> 0:32:22.400
<v Speaker 2>grounded as far as with music is concerned, and not

0:32:22.560 --> 0:32:29.720
<v Speaker 2>try to be too braggadocious in my songs. It's just

0:32:29.800 --> 0:32:34.320
<v Speaker 2>like tell stories, like you said, tell stories of modern

0:32:34.440 --> 0:32:39.040
<v Speaker 2>day struggle of you know, the motherfucker who ain't rich,

0:32:40.760 --> 0:32:44.160
<v Speaker 2>the motherfucker who struggles and gotta work a nine to five,

0:32:44.400 --> 0:32:48.040
<v Speaker 2>and you know the nigga who drives the regular car,

0:32:48.280 --> 0:32:52.080
<v Speaker 2>and you know, and I don't got no Rolex and

0:32:52.160 --> 0:32:55.840
<v Speaker 2>no chains, and you know, I got kids at home

0:32:55.920 --> 0:33:00.440
<v Speaker 2>that gotta get school clothes and bills need to be paid.

0:33:00.560 --> 0:33:05.040
<v Speaker 2>Because when you looked upon as when you looked upon

0:33:05.320 --> 0:33:12.400
<v Speaker 2>as as these entertainers, people tend to forget that regular

0:33:12.440 --> 0:33:13.800
<v Speaker 2>life still goes on.

0:33:13.960 --> 0:33:16.440
<v Speaker 1>You know what, I kept regular life going up, bro,

0:33:16.600 --> 0:33:19.760
<v Speaker 1>because I was working as a A and R the publishing company.

0:33:20.760 --> 0:33:22.560
<v Speaker 1>And when I tell you, I kept that job for

0:33:22.600 --> 0:33:24.960
<v Speaker 1>the longest, as long even through all the podcast stuff,

0:33:25.000 --> 0:33:26.880
<v Speaker 1>I still got up and went to work because I

0:33:26.960 --> 0:33:30.640
<v Speaker 1>was I never understood the mentality of people thinking, oh, well,

0:33:30.640 --> 0:33:33.160
<v Speaker 1>you're getting this money, now, are you gonna quit your job?

0:33:33.280 --> 0:33:35.080
<v Speaker 1>It's like no, for what, Like, why am I see

0:33:35.120 --> 0:33:37.120
<v Speaker 1>the motherfuckers paying me one hundred fifty thousand dollars a year.

0:33:37.120 --> 0:33:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Why am I gonna quit? M Why would I quit?

0:33:41.240 --> 0:33:46.160
<v Speaker 1>You know? And I think people that have never touched

0:33:46.240 --> 0:33:48.280
<v Speaker 1>money before, they always got to, you know, to think

0:33:48.280 --> 0:33:49.959
<v Speaker 1>in their mind that I would be doing this. If

0:33:50.000 --> 0:33:51.440
<v Speaker 1>I were you, I would be doing next, you know.

0:33:51.480 --> 0:33:54.600
<v Speaker 1>And it ain't necessarily like that. It's just everybody's situation

0:33:54.720 --> 0:33:57.760
<v Speaker 1>is different. I was always scared because I come from

0:33:57.800 --> 0:34:00.320
<v Speaker 1>real poverty like Cleveland is. Like I was really poor

0:34:00.480 --> 0:34:03.480
<v Speaker 1>coming up, like like poor or poor, you know, to

0:34:03.560 --> 0:34:05.320
<v Speaker 1>the point where I was picking roaches and shut out

0:34:05.360 --> 0:34:07.640
<v Speaker 1>the cereal, and I just knew I never wanted to

0:34:07.680 --> 0:34:10.239
<v Speaker 1>go back to that life again. I never wanted to

0:34:10.239 --> 0:34:12.399
<v Speaker 1>go back. And that's my biggest fear even to this day,

0:34:13.719 --> 0:34:16.920
<v Speaker 1>of just going back to just abject property man and

0:34:17.040 --> 0:34:19.160
<v Speaker 1>just you know the way you really just like you

0:34:19.280 --> 0:34:22.680
<v Speaker 1>come home sometimes and the lights is off. My moms

0:34:22.680 --> 0:34:25.120
<v Speaker 1>and pops did a good job. They did a really

0:34:25.160 --> 0:34:26.799
<v Speaker 1>good job, because I didn't go through the lights off

0:34:26.880 --> 0:34:31.279
<v Speaker 1>shit too much, but I could. Hell, y'all make sure

0:34:31.280 --> 0:34:32.759
<v Speaker 1>to let them know when they waste food, because it

0:34:32.800 --> 0:34:35.440
<v Speaker 1>bothers me when they get to and their mom treated

0:34:35.520 --> 0:34:38.480
<v Speaker 1>like it's a fucking butfait one, I won't spaghetti, the

0:34:38.560 --> 0:34:40.759
<v Speaker 1>other one I want steak, and she and all this

0:34:40.840 --> 0:34:46.080
<v Speaker 1>different shit, and I'm like, you know what, y'all need eagles.

0:34:46.120 --> 0:34:47.960
<v Speaker 1>When I at my mom's house, we ate whatever the

0:34:48.000 --> 0:34:48.720
<v Speaker 1>fuck she cooked.

0:34:49.680 --> 0:34:51.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's a very different thing I noticed with the

0:34:51.800 --> 0:34:57.040
<v Speaker 5>younger generations. Even for me. I didn't grow up like y'all.

0:34:57.080 --> 0:35:00.759
<v Speaker 5>But it's like my mom made dinner. That was it.

0:35:01.000 --> 0:35:03.439
<v Speaker 5>There was and I two brothers. It wasn't like each

0:35:03.520 --> 0:35:05.440
<v Speaker 5>three of us got three different meals.

0:35:05.480 --> 0:35:07.200
<v Speaker 1>Like, yeah, y'all ate whatever the fuck she cooked, but

0:35:07.440 --> 0:35:07.960
<v Speaker 1>that was it.

0:35:08.520 --> 0:35:10.080
<v Speaker 4>We didn't have a buffet.

0:35:09.960 --> 0:35:12.560
<v Speaker 1>And mom and again man shout out to my mom's

0:35:12.560 --> 0:35:13.560
<v Speaker 1>man and my steppops.

0:35:16.480 --> 0:35:19.760
<v Speaker 3>As a kid growing up, did you know you was poor?

0:35:20.680 --> 0:35:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I didn't realize I was poor until I started going

0:35:23.000 --> 0:35:25.200
<v Speaker 1>over other friend's house that have stuff, and I would

0:35:25.200 --> 0:35:27.200
<v Speaker 1>be like, damn. Like I had a friend named Mike.

0:35:27.920 --> 0:35:30.720
<v Speaker 1>His dad worked for electric company and his mom worked

0:35:30.719 --> 0:35:33.439
<v Speaker 1>for Ohio Bell, like the phone company, so they both

0:35:33.480 --> 0:35:35.760
<v Speaker 1>had pretty good income. They was both in upper management

0:35:36.040 --> 0:35:38.080
<v Speaker 1>and they lived up in the hills. See in Cleveland,

0:35:38.440 --> 0:35:40.440
<v Speaker 1>everybody lived on the east side. It's poor in the

0:35:40.440 --> 0:35:42.200
<v Speaker 1>west side, but then if you like, got the heights

0:35:42.200 --> 0:35:44.319
<v Speaker 1>at the end of your city, that means you doing well.

0:35:44.360 --> 0:35:48.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, got heights on you know, if you got

<v Speaker 2>booking agent, Like I said, I was still in the

0:43:58.320 --> 0:43:59.239

<v Speaker 2>of the labels or fears going through what they was doing.

0:44:17.040 --> 0:44:20.759
<v Speaker 2>So basically it's a contant thing. They didn't even get promoted.

0:44:20.960 --> 0:44:24.040
<v Speaker 2>It was just off the fact that one time Gaffle

0:44:24.120 --> 0:44:27.160

<v Speaker 2>No, because unknown was controlling shit was still no one

0:45:35.800 --> 0:45:40.560
<v Speaker 2>was controlling shit, And so I don't know how much

0:45:40.600 --> 0:45:42.839
<v Speaker 2>I got from doing Growing Up in the hood. I

0:45:42.880 --> 0:45:44.600
<v Speaker 2>know I didn't get over five grand.

0:45:45.719 --> 0:45:49.640
<v Speaker 3>Oh hell on record, No, I didn't because.

<v Speaker 1>fifty dollars.

0:45:54.800 --> 0:46:00.440
<v Speaker 2>I didn't start making money until I didn't start making

0:46:00.560 --> 0:46:05.799
<v Speaker 2>my own bread like that until Pool came along and

0:46:05.920 --> 0:46:07.719
<v Speaker 2>offered me the Saint Ice commercial.

0:46:08.520 --> 0:46:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

<v Speaker 2>ended up giving me twenty five grand. And yeah he did.

0:46:18.200 --> 0:46:22.320
<v Speaker 2>He went back to pooling them talking shit because Pool

0:46:26.000 --> 0:46:28.400
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying, so unknone was bitching. So I

0:46:28.440 --> 0:46:31.040
<v Speaker 2>think they had to give him some money because he

0:46:31.160 --> 0:46:33.839
<v Speaker 2>started claiming, well, I'm the one who produced the beat

0:46:33.920 --> 0:46:36.880
<v Speaker 2>and blah blah blah and so. But I made twenty

0:46:36.920 --> 0:46:44.480
<v Speaker 2>five grand off that shit. So that's when I started noticing, Heyking,

<v Speaker 2>to go through the checkbook and saw a deposit for

0:48:36.280 --> 0:48:39.320
<v Speaker 2>a publishing deal. And I'm going, like, how a nigga

<v Speaker 1>But I didn't know shit, nigga.

0:49:14.200 --> 0:49:18.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm I'm thinking like you know, because like I said,

0:49:21.560 --> 0:49:25.920
<v Speaker 2>I came from poverty, so having a little or something

0:49:26.320 --> 0:49:28.560
<v Speaker 2>was was was better than nothing.

0:49:29.000 --> 0:49:32.400
<v Speaker 1>You know that motherfucker. Even I don't seen bad deals,

0:49:32.400 --> 0:49:34.160
<v Speaker 1>but that's just straight fuckery right there.

0:49:34.239 --> 0:49:36.239
<v Speaker 3>Well, that's that's that's that was.

0:49:36.600 --> 0:49:38.799
<v Speaker 2>That was the niggas back then, man, you know, and

0:49:38.840 --> 0:49:42.480
<v Speaker 2>then and the crazy shit about it is it's some

0:49:42.520 --> 0:49:47.080
<v Speaker 2>motherfuckers who feel that today, like, you know, I'm not

0:49:47.120 --> 0:49:50.000
<v Speaker 2>gonna give a motherfucker what he deserves. I'm gonna give

0:49:50.040 --> 0:49:52.759
<v Speaker 2>a motherfucker what I think he should have, you know.

0:49:53.239 --> 0:49:56.520
<v Speaker 2>And that's what I went through, that era of a

0:49:56.640 --> 0:50:01.520
<v Speaker 2>nigga not giving a fuck about a young dude, food compting,

0:50:01.760 --> 0:50:02.719
<v Speaker 2>gang banging.

0:50:03.000 --> 0:50:03.360
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:50:04.640 --> 0:50:09.239
<v Speaker 1>You know it's from Detroit, right, yeah, yeah, so you know,

0:50:09.920 --> 0:50:13.880
<v Speaker 1>but like I said, I've also I've never been and

0:50:13.960 --> 0:50:16.880
<v Speaker 1>even yeah, man, the way you think about it, but

0:50:16.920 --> 0:50:19.680
<v Speaker 1>I've never been to the point of, not to say,

0:50:20.760 --> 0:50:26.480
<v Speaker 1>appreciative of the dollar. But my most critical years were

0:50:26.520 --> 0:50:30.040
<v Speaker 1>I should have been a millionaire nigga. I was getting scraps,

0:50:30.360 --> 0:50:33.319
<v Speaker 1>but I was. I came from nothing, so.

0:50:35.040 --> 0:50:38.040
<v Speaker 2>Being able to drive around every day, being able to

0:50:38.080 --> 0:50:42.160
<v Speaker 2>have my own apartment, and you know, I thought Compton

0:50:42.400 --> 0:50:46.960
<v Speaker 2>was everything. So I'm still in Compton, and everybody know

0:50:47.200 --> 0:50:49.840
<v Speaker 2>me a little bit because I got the two albums

0:50:49.840 --> 0:50:55.880
<v Speaker 2>out and you know, I was, I was beyond the whatever,

0:50:56.040 --> 0:51:00.600
<v Speaker 2>and you know, majority of everybody besides you know, me

0:51:00.719 --> 0:51:03.400
<v Speaker 2>and quick and that type of thing. But on the

0:51:03.440 --> 0:51:07.040
<v Speaker 2>other aspect, man, I could basically go everywhere. I went

0:51:07.080 --> 0:51:10.520
<v Speaker 2>to different hoods and neighborhoods and hung out with niggas,

0:51:10.560 --> 0:51:14.600
<v Speaker 2>and you know, I still wanted to be considered.

0:51:17.440 --> 0:51:18.440
<v Speaker 1>A normal nigga.

0:51:18.880 --> 0:51:21.920
<v Speaker 2>I low ride up and down Crenshaw with niggas every

0:51:21.960 --> 0:51:23.400
<v Speaker 2>Sunday and shit like that.

0:51:23.640 --> 0:51:25.320
<v Speaker 3>You know, I still wanted.

0:51:25.080 --> 0:51:28.799
<v Speaker 2>To be you know, when niggas had security and was

0:51:28.840 --> 0:51:32.440
<v Speaker 2>living in calabasas and mansions and whatever. Nigga, I'm on

0:51:32.600 --> 0:51:36.399
<v Speaker 2>Crenshaw every night hopping my sixth trade with regular ass

0:51:36.520 --> 0:51:39.240
<v Speaker 2>niggas because I wanted to be a regular niggas.

0:51:39.239 --> 0:51:42.359
<v Speaker 1>Still, that's crazy, man, just seeing the way, like when

0:51:42.360 --> 0:51:44.800
<v Speaker 1>you went over the Who Banger, would you say that

0:51:44.880 --> 0:51:46.439
<v Speaker 1>was part of the label you had the most fun

0:51:46.480 --> 0:51:59.839
<v Speaker 1>on I cause you could have went to no limit too.

0:52:00.400 --> 0:52:01.720
<v Speaker 1>I could have went to no limit.

0:52:01.960 --> 0:52:04.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean I fucked with Mac and Who Banging because

0:52:05.200 --> 0:52:10.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, I felt I wanted to keep my uh

0:52:11.160 --> 0:52:15.240
<v Speaker 2>my following. I wanted to keep my fan base of

0:52:17.280 --> 0:52:27.080
<v Speaker 2>the foundation amount. You know, I was hanging with Dog

0:52:27.160 --> 0:52:31.480
<v Speaker 2>a lot, and Dog had went over there, and you know,

0:52:31.680 --> 0:52:35.360
<v Speaker 2>I met Pee and all the crew and everybody, you know.

0:52:36.560 --> 0:52:41.040
<v Speaker 2>But I was close. But like I said, I hooked

0:52:41.120 --> 0:52:43.959
<v Speaker 2>up with Mac, and Mac was like, you know, we

0:52:43.960 --> 0:52:47.160
<v Speaker 2>West Coast, Let's keep the foundation of the West Coast.

0:52:47.160 --> 0:52:49.080
<v Speaker 1>And so that's funny because he went and took a

0:52:49.080 --> 0:52:51.280
<v Speaker 1>bag over cash money not too long after.

0:52:51.040 --> 0:52:55.040
<v Speaker 2>The exactly but uh, you know, it was just like

0:52:55.080 --> 0:53:01.440
<v Speaker 2>I said, I've always considered myself to be how they

0:53:01.120 --> 0:53:05.080
<v Speaker 2>how they has the phrase the homeboy next door, how

0:53:05.080 --> 0:53:08.080
<v Speaker 2>they say the girl next door. I'm the nigga next door. Man,

0:53:08.160 --> 0:53:13.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm I'm I'm not the nigga who gonna alienate you.

0:53:13.120 --> 0:53:16.640
<v Speaker 2>And you know, you know we grew up the same

0:53:16.800 --> 0:53:20.239
<v Speaker 2>and I want you to feel that same way. I'm

0:53:20.280 --> 0:53:24.480
<v Speaker 2>not no better. I don't want to be posterized as

0:53:24.920 --> 0:53:27.359
<v Speaker 2>oh that's eight, you know. So that's why I didn't

0:53:27.400 --> 0:53:30.880
<v Speaker 2>do nothing out of the ordinary. Uh you know, I

0:53:30.920 --> 0:53:35.120
<v Speaker 2>didn't dress you know, fashion statements, and you know I

0:53:35.239 --> 0:53:37.800
<v Speaker 2>still wear sweatshirts and regular shoes.

0:53:37.920 --> 0:53:39.839
<v Speaker 1>And I want to go back to this no limit

0:53:39.840 --> 0:53:41.600
<v Speaker 1>shit though, man, because you know I used to picture

0:53:41.680 --> 0:53:42.920
<v Speaker 1>him now because you picture him with one of them

0:53:42.920 --> 0:53:47.759
<v Speaker 1>pen of pixel nook covers, of course, but he'd been

0:53:47.760 --> 0:53:49.799
<v Speaker 1>sitting on the throne like this with a whole bunch

0:53:49.800 --> 0:53:51.719
<v Speaker 1>of flyers. They would have had to have they would

0:53:51.760 --> 0:53:54.560
<v Speaker 1>have had to have my shit have blinged out Lowrider

0:53:54.640 --> 0:53:56.239
<v Speaker 1>or some shit like that, you know.

0:53:56.680 --> 0:54:00.480
<v Speaker 5>But eight eight and Solo and Wakanda's most want to

0:54:00.520 --> 0:54:03.760
<v Speaker 5>have some of the best covers anyway, So that was unnecessary.

0:54:04.120 --> 0:54:08.120
<v Speaker 2>Definitely, Like everything happens for a reason, you know what

0:54:08.160 --> 0:54:13.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying. Going through those trials of of of coming

0:54:13.480 --> 0:54:17.640
<v Speaker 2>out of being signed to a label, trying to figure

0:54:17.640 --> 0:54:20.399
<v Speaker 2>out your next move, you know, you make decisions.

0:54:20.480 --> 0:54:20.839
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:54:22.520 --> 0:54:24.600
<v Speaker 3>What would it have taken me? Who knows?

0:54:24.960 --> 0:54:28.360
<v Speaker 2>But I ended up doing two albums with Who Banging

0:54:28.800 --> 0:54:31.799
<v Speaker 2>and then after that I've been independent, like just fuck it.

0:54:31.920 --> 0:54:34.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so let me ask you this.

0:54:34.400 --> 0:54:36.840
<v Speaker 2>Now, I'm not the blame of ship. It's all on

0:54:36.960 --> 0:54:41.000
<v Speaker 2>my own self. You know, I don't want it. Oh

0:54:41.080 --> 0:54:43.600
<v Speaker 2>we didn't sell this much or we didn't recoup this

0:54:43.880 --> 0:54:46.239
<v Speaker 2>or whatever. What I put into it is what I

0:54:46.360 --> 0:54:47.720
<v Speaker 2>get out of it, and.

0:54:47.560 --> 0:54:48.399
<v Speaker 3>Now that's it.

0:54:48.440 --> 0:54:54.040
<v Speaker 1>That's good enough. So P was really on you. Yeah,

0:54:54.719 --> 0:54:59.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean a lot of niggas came after me.

0:55:00.080 --> 0:55:01.879
<v Speaker 2>So you know a lot of the niggas, you know,

0:55:02.120 --> 0:55:05.600
<v Speaker 2>as far as and I'm not to say that I've

0:55:05.640 --> 0:55:08.040
<v Speaker 2>ever been above niggas.

0:55:07.680 --> 0:55:10.080
<v Speaker 3>But my career started early.

0:55:10.840 --> 0:55:14.640
<v Speaker 2>You know, my career started before there was a Master P,

0:55:15.040 --> 0:55:20.040
<v Speaker 2>a Snoop Dog. You know, a lot of niggas man,

0:55:20.320 --> 0:55:24.520
<v Speaker 2>and so I would just like to think that while

0:55:24.520 --> 0:55:27.360
<v Speaker 2>they was in their hoods or going to high school

0:55:27.480 --> 0:55:29.960
<v Speaker 2>or whatever, at one point in time they banged some

0:55:30.080 --> 0:55:31.280
<v Speaker 2>comptence most wanted.

0:55:31.360 --> 0:55:32.480
<v Speaker 3>How could you not have?

0:55:33.000 --> 0:55:38.040
<v Speaker 2>You know, for sure, Pee New Orleans, the West Coast,

0:55:38.120 --> 0:55:41.680
<v Speaker 2>up in the Bay Area. Rich mac Tn was from Inglewood.

0:55:41.760 --> 0:55:44.520
<v Speaker 2>Snoop was from Long Beach, you know, so at one

0:55:44.520 --> 0:55:50.160
<v Speaker 2>point in time you heard some CMW you know what

0:55:50.200 --> 0:55:53.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying. So you have to look at it like

0:55:53.719 --> 0:55:56.480
<v Speaker 2>a respect name. You know, I respect other artists. So

0:55:56.880 --> 0:55:59.640
<v Speaker 2>I would hope naturally that motherfuckers would be like, oh yeah,

0:55:59.640 --> 0:56:02.440
<v Speaker 2>that's it, you know, you know whatever. So mister P

0:56:02.640 --> 0:56:05.640
<v Speaker 2>was cracking at that time, definitely, definitely during that time

0:56:05.680 --> 0:56:05.880
<v Speaker 2>he was.

0:56:05.840 --> 0:56:07.719
<v Speaker 1>Trying to sign. That's when he was like the tank

0:56:07.800 --> 0:56:11.120
<v Speaker 1>was rolling, no priority they you know, they had probably

0:56:11.160 --> 0:56:13.880
<v Speaker 1>no limit, had priority on the lock and and everything

0:56:14.040 --> 0:56:14.640
<v Speaker 1>was cracking.

0:56:14.719 --> 0:56:18.080
<v Speaker 3>But like it was like that transition.

0:56:17.719 --> 0:56:19.920
<v Speaker 1>Of the song with Suit the Socker. Yeah, They was

0:56:19.960 --> 0:56:21.960
<v Speaker 1>all in the studio when I came in that day

0:56:21.960 --> 0:56:24.520
<v Speaker 1>when I met everybody, and they was like, hey, you

<v Speaker 1>So you see your face. No, man, the way you

0:56:32.440 --> 0:56:35.239

<v Speaker 1>promoting shit. Oh yeah.

0:57:48.440 --> 0:57:50.560
<v Speaker 4>And before he was, he was a master of that.

0:57:50.640 --> 0:57:53.760
<v Speaker 1>Before I even saw his album, I saw a little

0:57:53.800 --> 0:57:56.000
<v Speaker 1>I was up late at night, man watching b E T.

0:57:56.240 --> 0:57:58.080

<v Speaker 1>And then I was at the motherfucking record store and

<v Speaker 1>talk about the struggle for sure, that's what you talk about.

0:58:48.000 --> 0:58:50.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, where cash money was more of the rich,

0:58:50.640 --> 0:58:53.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, but they were still ghettle. But they was

0:58:53.480 --> 0:58:55.200
<v Speaker 1>the rich. They was the motherfuckers. You ain't even like,

<v Speaker 1>that's not no motherfucking act. Stunning, man, is really the

0:59:06.560 --> 0:59:11.880
<v Speaker 1>stunner man. Ty Reese told me when he was signed

0:59:11.880 --> 0:59:13.880
<v Speaker 1>the cash Money Man. He said that he went down there,

0:59:13.880 --> 0:59:16.640
<v Speaker 1>had a block party, and baby was walking around with

0:59:16.680 --> 0:59:20.800
<v Speaker 1>the three million dollar check that the universally gave. It's

0:59:20.840 --> 0:59:23.000
<v Speaker 1>walking around the hood where its the projects. It's like

0:59:23.000 --> 0:59:28.600
<v Speaker 1>showing motherfucker's taking pictures with niggas and shit. Why man,

0:59:28.880 --> 0:59:29.960
<v Speaker 1>that's stunned. That's what he do.

0:59:31.360 --> 0:59:35.360
<v Speaker 2>Money change people, man, some some people, you know, it

0:59:35.400 --> 0:59:36.040
<v Speaker 2>is what it is.

0:59:36.440 --> 0:59:39.000
<v Speaker 1>That's probably who he always was. I think they always

0:59:39.080 --> 0:59:41.200
<v Speaker 1>had bread. It was always some dudes. It was doing

0:59:41.200 --> 0:59:44.320
<v Speaker 1>that stunning them really lived like that.

0:59:44.360 --> 0:59:46.760
<v Speaker 2>Man, I was right to have bread, man, It's just

0:59:46.960 --> 0:59:50.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, you got the I just I just wish

0:59:50.840 --> 0:59:54.440
<v Speaker 2>niggas be more dignified with the bread, like like you know,

0:59:54.640 --> 0:59:58.000
<v Speaker 2>like a like a football coach tell you when you score, what.

0:59:58.080 --> 0:59:59.680
<v Speaker 1>He tell you, man, be humble.

1:00:00.120 --> 1:00:05.320
<v Speaker 3>No, there you go, act like you've been here before.

1:00:05.640 --> 1:00:13.680
<v Speaker 2>So I just be like, man, wish niggas wouldn't be

<v Speaker 1>met like a good dude shoe what I'm saying, And

1:00:30.480 --> 1:00:33.080

<v Speaker 1>on people.

1:00:33.680 --> 1:00:35.840

<v Speaker 2>I'd be like, I ain't got it and probably have

1:04:21.320 --> 1:04:24.160
<v Speaker 2>about one hundred dollars in my pocket.

1:04:24.480 --> 1:04:29.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't take the route of flocking. I take the

1:04:29.640 --> 1:04:32.760
<v Speaker 1>route of saving for a raady fucking day. That's how

1:04:32.800 --> 1:04:35.720
<v Speaker 1>I am. I'm just talking shit, you damn shit. But

1:04:35.880 --> 1:04:37.760
<v Speaker 1>it saved your money because I want them to look.

1:04:38.640 --> 1:04:41.760
<v Speaker 1>Like I said, I had my moments just frivle the spending.

1:04:42.520 --> 1:04:44.840
<v Speaker 1>But it takes you hitting broke, getting broke one time,

1:04:44.880 --> 1:04:46.960
<v Speaker 1>because I also feel the fuck off. One time when

1:04:46.960 --> 1:04:48.800
<v Speaker 1>I was working at that publishing company and I had

1:04:48.840 --> 1:04:50.840
<v Speaker 1>we getting little record deals here and there, and that

1:04:51.680 --> 1:04:53.880
<v Speaker 1>I was spending money, man, I was spending about like

1:04:53.960 --> 1:04:57.960
<v Speaker 1>thirty forty a month, just bullshit. And you know what happened.

1:04:58.280 --> 1:05:01.120
<v Speaker 1>I lost that publishing job, man, and all the little money,

1:05:01.160 --> 1:05:02.800
<v Speaker 1>the little bit of money that I did happen to

1:05:02.840 --> 1:05:04.720
<v Speaker 1>have in there that shit window.

1:05:04.800 --> 1:05:05.000
<v Speaker 5>Man.

1:05:05.120 --> 1:05:08.000
<v Speaker 1>And I'm gonna tell you something, ain't more humbling being

1:05:08.040 --> 1:05:09.680
<v Speaker 1>able to spend as much money as you want to

1:05:09.680 --> 1:05:13.360
<v Speaker 1>and then your ass looking for a job exactly, ain't

1:05:13.360 --> 1:05:16.280
<v Speaker 1>nothing more humbling. After that experience, I became a lot

1:05:16.320 --> 1:05:18.680
<v Speaker 1>more fucking sensible with my money. Man, It just leave

1:05:18.800 --> 1:05:21.160
<v Speaker 1>too fast. See what I find is this money is

1:05:21.200 --> 1:05:22.919
<v Speaker 1>easy to get, it's just hard as hell to keep.

1:05:24.360 --> 1:05:28.320
<v Speaker 5>It just depends man, it's crazy because I didn't grow

1:05:28.440 --> 1:05:32.080
<v Speaker 5>up poor by any means, but we didn't have extra money.

1:05:32.320 --> 1:05:36.440
<v Speaker 5>So I never had the good shoes like everybody. I

1:05:36.520 --> 1:05:41.280
<v Speaker 5>never had a bunch of clothes. We we just didn't

1:05:41.280 --> 1:05:45.560
<v Speaker 5>have extra money. So for me, that's where I developed

1:05:45.560 --> 1:05:51.000
<v Speaker 5>my save money. Smart with your money because there might

1:05:51.040 --> 1:05:53.720
<v Speaker 5>not be any extra Yeah, it's real. We didn't miss

1:05:53.760 --> 1:05:56.160
<v Speaker 5>meals or anything, but of what, we never went out

1:05:56.200 --> 1:05:56.720
<v Speaker 5>to eat either.

1:05:56.880 --> 1:05:58.120
<v Speaker 4>We never went anywhere.

1:05:58.600 --> 1:06:03.400
<v Speaker 5>So it's like it's just a very different uh mentality.

1:06:03.480 --> 1:06:05.480
<v Speaker 5>So like we're saying, if I got a five million

1:06:05.560 --> 1:06:08.560
<v Speaker 5>dollar check, it would be very much like eight.

1:06:08.640 --> 1:06:10.040
<v Speaker 4>I'd still be wearing the same.

1:06:09.880 --> 1:06:11.880
<v Speaker 1>Dude, I would still be in the same house. I mean,

1:06:11.960 --> 1:06:15.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm being real with but we in l a yacht.

1:06:15.800 --> 1:06:16.840
<v Speaker 3>You won't get no yacht.

1:06:16.960 --> 1:06:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Hell no, I'm talking ship. Dog. I'm like, I'm being

<v Speaker 1>don't want no other crib. I don't want no other

<v Speaker 1>expensive if anything. Now I'm trying to stack we not

<v Speaker 1>not getting in there. You see me in the same truck.
