A lot of people say that, 0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:43.279 they say my music bring them back to exactly what 0:00:43.320 --> 0:00:45.879 they was doing when I first came out. You know, 0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:49.360 it's it really marked a special time right in people lives. 0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:51.839 You know, like a lot of people kids first words 0:00:51.960 --> 0:00:56.000 was so crazy, you know, it's it's a blessing. 0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:58.360 I gotta ask you, uh, I saw you, I saw 0:00:58.360 --> 0:00:59.800 you share your thoughts a little bit about this. But 0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:02.440 you know, there's been a lot of people who are 0:01:02.520 --> 0:01:04.600 upset that Lil Wayne did not get to look for 0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:08.640 the halftime show in New Orleans. Obviously, you know you're 0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:12.640 in Louisiana. What are your thoughts on on Wayne getting 0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:15.399 that snub and obviously shot to Kendrick. I think, obviously, 0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:18.200 if anybody deserves to do a halftime show, Kendrick's one 0:01:18.200 --> 0:01:18.400 of them. 0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:21.800 Yeah, with Kendrick heavy, like for sure, they're real golden. 0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:27.199 But it's a bigger play at hand right now. What's 0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:32.240 happening is a lot of big entities in large companies 0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:36.160 are finding places that they can profit and make high 0:01:36.160 --> 0:01:45.280 profit margins, and they pretend to cater to the community 0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:50.480 just enough to get the support they need, and then 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:53.280 they go with their hitting agenda, which is to make 0:01:53.440 --> 0:01:56.560 ultimately the most money they can possibly make. So it's 0:01:56.600 --> 0:02:00.160 a bigger play at hand. In Louisiana, it's always it's 0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:03.760 been a place that didn't have a lot of resources. 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:07.680 So if anybody came from upstate or out of town 0:02:07.880 --> 0:02:10.360 with a lot of resources, they was kind of able 0:02:10.360 --> 0:02:14.360 to throw their weight around and and you know, like 0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:18.440 you know, like put themselves in in positions. So it's 0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:21.120 it's it's really a bigger player. And we getting to 0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:24.480 a point in time now where people don't like to 0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:31.160 pay homage. You got youngsters who say, oh geez right right, 0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:34.120 like so you got you got a whole new era 0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:38.120 of disrespect that's coming into play. And it's the same 0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:42.320 thing in the industry. People have begun to just feel 0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:44.480 like it's cool to not pay hummage. It's cool to 0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:47.480 not you know, to to pay their respects that need 0:02:47.520 --> 0:02:51.120 to be paid. So that's the big thing that I see. 0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:54.360 I'm not just mad that Wayne ain't get to perform, 0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:57.280 because let's just be honest, like, you know what I'm saying, 0:02:57.680 --> 0:03:00.200 it's a it's it's it's it's it's a law much 0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:03.320 movie that I'm looking at. And this is gonna continue 0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:06.440 to happen. It ain't just gonna be what's happening in Shreeport. 0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:08.800 It ain't just gonna be what happened in New Orleans. 0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:11.799 If we don't stand up and and and and demand 0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:16.040 that people respect our culture and demand what we want, 0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:19.760 then we'll never get it. It's the same thing that 0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:22.799 that that that every other status learned how to do 0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:25.240 California know how to do it. If you come to Cali, 0:03:25.320 --> 0:03:28.120 Cali gonna make sure you do some type of catering 0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:31.679 to Cali or you won't really be accepted, you know 0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:32.119 what I'm saying. 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:33.760 Yeah, I mean when the Super Bowl was here, obviously 0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:36.839 doctor Dre had the halftime show and he was able 0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:38.720 to bring out kind of like parts of his tree, 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:39.960 you know, right r. 0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:43.720 But the people in position in Louisiana. L. Kendrick came 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:46.320 out that the problem is the people in position in 0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:50.640 Louisiana that that make the decisions instead of instead of 0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:54.440 loving a culture and and and and embracing their culture, 0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:57.800 they so they're trying to get relationships with with people 0:03:58.040 --> 0:04:01.160 in places that they've never been to. So it's leading 0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:03.640 to them looking over their own people that's right there 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:08.600 and honoring people that never done nothing for certain communities, 0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:11.320 which is not their fault. It's not my fault that 0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:14.600 somebody choose to honor me in your community. But what 0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:17.400 we got to do as a people as a whole 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:22.480 is make sure that we hold those responsible accountable the people. 0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:24.679 When I go to do the Super Bowl, I'm talking 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:28.080 to somebody in the city from the city somebody who 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:31.279 who or somebody from the league. You feel what I'm saying, 0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:35.520 I'm speaking I'm dealing with some type of official it's 0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:39.000 a lot of chains of command that these things go through. 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:41.960 Well, from what I understand, Rock Nation is in charge 0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:46.360 of the entertainment for the Super Bowl, since I want 0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:48.599 to say, the first one they did was Rihanna, So 0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:51.400 I think it was Rihanna, then fifty and then last 0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:56.080 year was Usher. Okay, well fifty was a doctor j year, 0:04:56.120 --> 0:04:57.520 but and then last year was Usher, and then this 0:04:57.600 --> 0:04:59.960 year would be Kendrick. So I think it's a Rock 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:01.880 Nation thing, and it seems like but. 0:05:01.839 --> 0:05:05.240 See, it's always been able to be put on companies 0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:08.200 and entities, and I think that's the easy way out. 0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:10.920 I think that's the easy way out. 0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:12.640 Is to say, oh, such and such makes this decision, 0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:14.720 and they did it because it is I look at 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.359 stuff for what it is and what it actually looks like, 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:21.280 not like, oh, well, hurricane Chris is doing this because 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:22.880 he signed in such and such or such and such 0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:25.400 as this recorde. But I'm just look at me for 0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:28.120 for what I look like. And I bag up and 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:31.960 I look at the history of what's been happening over 0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:34.520 the last couple of years, and it's been a repetitive 0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:38.880 history of not honoring the people from the community that 0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:42.719 helped build the community, but honoring people outside of the 0:05:42.760 --> 0:05:45.200 community right there in their face. And if it's the 0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:49.120 companies that's doing it without having proper knowledge, then it's 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:53.240 the people that's that's leaders of the community and involved 0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:55.640 in the community. It's their job to step up and 0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:59.120 let the people in power know, Hey, let's let's let's 0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:00.200 let's let's let's. 0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:01.760 Kind of cater to the culture a little bit. 0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:03.680 You know what I'm saying, Because if I was to 0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.160 come into your city as a promoter and I say, 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:09.760 I'm finna book all these artists, You're gonna slow me 0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:12.680 down and make sure I cater to somebody that this 0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:13.440 city likes. 0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:16.120 Yeah, I think that that would be fair as hell. 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:17.719 As a friend, I think that. 0:06:18.040 --> 0:06:19.719 I just think that the super Bowl is just so 0:06:19.920 --> 0:06:23.440 massive that it's like the fact that it's like it's 0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:25.400 going to be in New orleans's bringing so much money 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:28.839 to like the economy. So it's like the entertainment aspect 0:06:28.839 --> 0:06:30.720 of the halftime show is probably just like, well, we'll 0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:32.919 just leave it up to these guys. And I wonder, like, 0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:35.240 you know, a lot, you know, there's a lot of 0:06:35.279 --> 0:06:42.000 speculation that Jay had some sort of issues with Wayne 0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:44.479 or Drake and that that might have spilled over to 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:49.840 the decision. I'm not sure. Yeah, I mean, because but 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:51.000 I think that's all speculation. 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:52.960 Yeah, I don't think Jay got no smoke with. 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:55.640 I think that there's another like like way to look 0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:58.120 at it, and that's that like if you really kind 0:06:58.160 --> 0:06:58.800 of see. 0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:01.000 I don't put the blame on Jada. Let's let's get 0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:03.039 this straight. I don't put the blame on Jay because 0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:05.800 you gotta think he coming. He doing a million things, 0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:09.880 so so of course people may get mad at him 0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:11.760 in the beginning, but when you sit back and you 0:07:11.800 --> 0:07:16.320 think about it, it's it's one of a million things 0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:18.760 that he's doing. So I don't I don't look at 0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:23.160 it like he personally attempting to insult, you know what 0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:25.360 I'm saying, Like, I'm not looking at it like that. 0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:27.040 Now, if it's something going on on the inside that 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:27.520 I don't know. 0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:29.160 About, then I need to should have figged up possibly 0:07:29.280 --> 0:07:31.200 understand what I'm saying, because if it's that they're just 0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:33.360 sitting here getting speculating. 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:35.120 I mean. The other thing is is like I've seen 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:40.840 Wayne recently, like he did he did WrestleMania in Philly 0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:44.200 and his performance was very interesting. He forgot a lot 0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:45.920 of his lyrics, so it could be ship like that, 0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:48.520 you know, like, hey, some of the bigger performances, like. 0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:50.520 Maybe if he performed in New Orleans, he wouldn't even 0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:51.400 have to sing his lyrics. 0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:53.680 I don't disagree. I mean they gonna sing. No, I 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:55.880 don't disagree. I would have liked to have seen Wayne 0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:58.679 or at least like a young money you know, Wayne 0:07:58.760 --> 0:08:01.880 NICKI Drake thing. I mean, hopefully Kendrick. I mean, here's 0:08:01.920 --> 0:08:02.400 the thing. 0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:09.280 You got to think about some of these artists, some 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:11.760 of us actually reach out to these entities and acts. 0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:12.680 Can we be involved? 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:16.760 Right? Some of us actually let it be known that 0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:21.880 we would like to be involved, right, so we can 0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:23.760 we can kind of try to say, well, it's not 0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:27.200 a personal thing. But what if what if? What if? 0:08:27.880 --> 0:08:30.200 What if you call and reach out and you ask 0:08:30.280 --> 0:08:32.280 to be involved and you still reject it? You know 0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:33.160 what I'm saying, Like. 0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:35.840 Yeah, I mean, look, it could be. And like the 0:08:35.880 --> 0:08:37.480 other thing is is like like we said, it's like 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:39.080 if this is a personal thing that we don't know 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:43.640 about and it's just some some grudge that intertwined into 0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:46.600 this decision. I mean, then then That's just what it is. 0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:48.480 And then the other thing that sucks is I saw 0:08:48.520 --> 0:08:51.080 somebody say on Twitter it was like, well if Kendrick, 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:55.280 it sucks as if Kendrick plan on bringing Wayne out, now, 0:08:55.320 --> 0:08:56.920 people are just going to think that he did it 0:08:56.920 --> 0:08:58.520 because he was pressured to do it, as opposed to 0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:00.080 he just wanted to do it. You know what I'm saying, Man, 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:02.600 Like I think, Nah, Kendrick smart, you gotta bring Wayne 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:06.600 Kenja get smart, Kendrick go like Iwayne out, bro Kendrick 0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:07.079 gets smart. 0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:09.800 He wouldn't be doing that because he's pressured, right to 0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:14.200 be honest, like, I would think that that's probably something 0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:15.880 that win in his head immediately, like. 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:17.280 Oh for sure, like I got to bring Wayne out 0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:19.640 I'm in New Orleans, or I got to bring something. 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:22.200 You know what I'm saying, Like, that's just how we think. 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.520 Because if I go to a city and I'm performing 0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:27.520 in a big city and I got a big event, right, 0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:29.920 I'm gonna try to tap into who popping in that area. 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.120 So I wouldn't doubt that, you know, Kendrick thing. 0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:34.480 Like that he brings Wayne out, that'd be spech Kendrick 0:09:34.480 --> 0:09:38.520 Gaylan dumb by far like so recently, Uh, you and 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:41.079 fifty have been going back and forth. I know you 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:44.959 spoke a little bit about it on Vlad. I'm curious 0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:48.240 for the people who don't know. Like obviously, fifty opened 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:52.160 up his gun the movie studios in your hometown, right, Uh, 0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:54.840 he had like a weekend. Right, It was like like 0:09:54.880 --> 0:09:56.880 a whole weekend where people were coming to town and 0:09:57.960 --> 0:10:04.320 performing events, et cetera. Right, your grudge with him was 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:10.520 that he did not necessarily reach out to pillars of 0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:12.840 the community like you think he should have. 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:13.480 Is that? 0:10:13.800 --> 0:10:15.160 Am I on track? There? 0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:17.160 You're kind of on track. But it started before that. 0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:17.680 Okay. 0:10:18.240 --> 0:10:20.600 The first thing he did when he came to the city, Trepot, 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:23.520 Louisiana has been called ratchet city for a real long time. 0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:24.959 Let's get get it. 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:27.600 Yeah, for sure, you know about it, all right, So 0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:29.240 the first thing he did when he came to the city, 0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:32.559 everybody opened their arms and welcomed him, right, and then 0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:35.680 he said, no more ratchet in my city. We're getting this. 0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:36.720 Ratchet shit out of here. 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:38.959 He said that out of his mouth, out of his. 0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:41.640 Own mouth, with his lips and teeth and tongue. 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:42.280 Wow. 0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:45.400 And the radio host said, hey, man, you know they 0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:47.400 kind of crazy about that, you know, that's their thing. 0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:48.840 He said, no, no, no, we got to get that 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:49.280 out of here. 0:10:49.640 --> 0:10:52.559 So I reach out immediately like, hey, we need to 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:53.440 sit down and have a talk. 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:55.240 I didn't get no response. 0:10:55.920 --> 0:11:00.360 So now getting calls from my neighborhood and they saying, hey, 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:03.560 what's what, what's wrong with fifty saying Ratchet is dead 0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:06.840 and it ain't no more Ratchett City. Like that's kind 0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:10.280 of disrespectful, don't you think, right? So I didn't pay 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:13.640 no attention. And then I've seen a sign that the 0:11:13.640 --> 0:11:18.240 news poster that said fifty cent Councilors Ratchett City. I'm like, oh, 0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:21.120 they going crazy with this ship. Okay, fuck all the 0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:24.240 money that you, fuck all of that, fuck all this 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:26.920 shit up you Now you you being disrespectful. 0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:29.840 This is straight disrespect. So that's how I took it. 0:11:30.320 --> 0:11:34.480 So now when I see you do the event and 0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:37.960 you don't even involve no Ratchet City artists on the 0:11:38.000 --> 0:11:41.480 main stage, I'm looking at it like, so it's even 0:11:41.559 --> 0:11:44.000 more of something that's snowballing in my mind that you're 0:11:44.040 --> 0:11:47.120 against this Ratchet movement, which. 0:11:46.920 --> 0:11:48.640 If I go to the Baby, it'd be like coming 0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:51.120 to La and being like no more gangster rap, are. 0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:56.840 Gone going going going over. Yeah. And if you listen 0:11:56.920 --> 0:11:59.679 to my song the Ratchet remix e forty on there, 0:11:59.840 --> 0:12:02.080 he say a babe Bay. Yeah, I mean he's gonna 0:12:02.080 --> 0:12:04.040 say he say, he say Ratchet mean high feel like 0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:06.480 where you stay? Yeah, I mean's so it's something that 0:12:06.600 --> 0:12:09.960 been understood and it takes somebody like fifty who don't 0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:12.679 understand the culture of the South. All he see is, oh, 0:12:12.679 --> 0:12:14.280 I could buy these buildings and make a bunch of 0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:15.040 money and give a cook. 0:12:15.160 --> 0:12:18.240 I'm assuming the real estate market in Treeport is a 0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:20.920 lot more affordable to open up a studio than if 0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:22.559 you were to go to La. 0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:25.240 Super cheap, Yeah, super super duper cheap. And the state 0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:28.560 the city was trying to like beg somebody to take 0:12:28.559 --> 0:12:31.400 that building because they built it for purposes of helping 0:12:31.400 --> 0:12:33.920 the community. It was none profits involved with it. It 0:12:33.960 --> 0:12:36.000 was supposed to be teaching the community and right and 0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:37.520 a lot of stuff was supposed to happen and it 0:12:37.520 --> 0:12:39.640 never happened. So they needed that to be taken off 0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:42.160 of their hands because it was just sitting and nobody 0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:44.240 was doing nothing with it. So it was actually a 0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:46.719 good idea, and it was the perfect idea, you know 0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:49.960 what I'm saying for him to do that. But I'm 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:52.160 down with all of that, but you just we just 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:54.280 got off on the wrong foot with him disrespecting his 0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:56.520 Ratchet shit because my first album was called fifty one 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:59.000 fifty Ratchet. I got home boys just named Ratchet Life. 0:12:59.040 --> 0:13:01.880 That's dead and gone. My partners created a whole record 0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:04.160 label based off of this, this culture. You know what 0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:06.480 I'm saying. He got sentenced to life and end up 0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:08.880 giving a sentence back and coming home to seeing you 0:13:08.960 --> 0:13:11.000 saying that Ratchett shit is dead. And he just got 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:13.200 home this year, like and he thought he was coming 0:13:13.240 --> 0:13:15.319 home and to get his ship back popping, you know 0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:18.160 what I'm saying. Like, so you're really just you saying. 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:20.120 But that was where things got on the wrong foot. 0:13:20.200 --> 0:13:23.280 Yes, yeah, So now when I when I see the 0:13:23.360 --> 0:13:27.400 event go down and no, no Ratchett City Artists is involved, 0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:29.320 and I don't see no you know, like no, no, 0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:33.120 no hommage being paid to the city.
