Speaker 1: up on, pull up on that mic. Yeah it went
Speaker 1: fairly well. Man. Um I went, uh, funny thing like
Speaker 1: we were in that um in the prep room, right,
Speaker 1: Chris had his room in my rooms next door. It's
Speaker 1: where you came. What's Chris already going when you got done? No,
Speaker 1: he was still there. You've seen hi when they pushed
Speaker 1: him out. Okay, So what I said when he pushed
Speaker 1: in mind Chris forgot all about it? Dug he did? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but yeah I thought he was I thought he was lusive.
Speaker 1: He was like, uh yeah, man, yeah, I feel good.
Speaker 1: Everything's good. You know. I was like, okay, I sold you.
Speaker 1: And then like when we talked to him, ladies, I
Speaker 1: don't remember nothing on. Yeah. Man, I was worried about
Speaker 1: my boy man because he was just they pushed him
Speaker 1: up and we weren't together no more, like damn. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So they had Chris back there. They must have been
Speaker 1: uh taking this kidney up. And then while he was
Speaker 1: back there, they was like, it's time for you to go.
Speaker 1: You die. When I left, when I had to go,
Speaker 1: I was okay. So this is what I remember. I
Speaker 1: remember him pushing me out, and I saw the door.
Speaker 1: I saw the door where y'all had to go. And
Speaker 1: I've seen the door where I had to go. And
Speaker 1: I told her later, I didn't feel nothing, and and
Speaker 1: I'm talking, uh the n ceologies, I didn't feel nothing,
Speaker 1: And she says, well, you know, I always win in
Speaker 1: the end. And then I just remember waking up. Now,
Speaker 1: how did you feel knowing that you was purposely about
Speaker 1: to be sedated and you and you're going into a
Speaker 1: situation where this is a life like this, this could
Speaker 1: this could jeopardize your life and having this surgery. You know,
Speaker 1: these things go well most of the time, but there
Speaker 1: is a small percentage things go bad. And you're purposely
Speaker 1: going in this situation where you're knowing that there's a slim,
Speaker 1: very slim possibility that you may not wake up. Man,
Speaker 1: how was that? So? When? When? When when you think
Speaker 1: about doing dialysis? Will and how I make you feel
Speaker 1: after and just being connected to a machine for for forever,
Speaker 1: Like I was willing to take that chance, man, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. You know, I know it's it's selfish,
Speaker 1: but man, I would rather fucking not do that dialysis. Ship.
Speaker 1: And it's been many days in a year while I
Speaker 1: was on dialysis that I was just like, fuck this,
Speaker 1: I'm done with this ship. Suck it, you know, because
Speaker 1: I didn't see an end to it, you know, I
Speaker 1: didn't see I didn't see it ending. I just saw
Speaker 1: me spending the rest of my life on a fucking machine,
Speaker 1: you know. And and that's not how I wanted to live,
Speaker 1: because I was always attached to the machine, you know,
Speaker 1: the machine said in my bedroom like a piece of furniture.
Speaker 1: You've seen it. And I just I just did not
Speaker 1: want to do that ship no more. Man. And when
Speaker 1: I got, you know, to the point where were in
Speaker 1: the hospital and my son was in the hospital, I'm like, oh, Ship,
Speaker 1: I had one of those moments like oh fuck, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna get a kidney. And I did not know what
Speaker 1: to expect the how I was gonna feel after I
Speaker 1: got it, you know, because I felt like ship all
Speaker 1: day long, you know, doing dialysis and without a kidding
Speaker 1: you never know how valuable or or how much a
Speaker 1: kidney is needed until it's gone all right, And and
Speaker 1: that that is a filter for your body. It built
Speaker 1: as all this ship out of your body, the bad ship.
Speaker 1: And and and and thank God for my son bro
Speaker 1: because he came't throwing the clutch. He told me, paying
Speaker 1: I don't don't even worry about that. You know, I
Speaker 1: had a couple of um children that wanted to give
Speaker 1: me kidneys. You know. I was like, Ship, I appreciate
Speaker 1: you all, but I don't know man. And Chris is like,
Speaker 1: you know, you're getting his kidney. I was like, I'm
Speaker 1: not working with that kidney. Like, man, you're gonna get
Speaker 1: this kidney. Yeah, you had a couple of thousands at least,
Speaker 1: people from all over the world who was stepping up
Speaker 1: to the plate and volunteering to give you a kidney.
Speaker 1: You know, like how important was it to not just
Speaker 1: have the support from your family and close ones, but
Speaker 1: also people who you inspired with your music around the world.
Speaker 1: You know, realie, when when when I think about my
Speaker 1: career and the impact that I had on other people's lives,
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's just starting to catch up with
Speaker 1: me now that I'm starting to slow down. You feel
Speaker 1: me like I'm now feeling like, oh, damn, I really
Speaker 1: said some ship, you know that that really touched some
Speaker 1: some some people's lives. I listened to my catalog now
Speaker 1: I'm starting to listen to my music again, and I like, damn,
Speaker 1: I was saying some good ship. I probably can never
Speaker 1: write like that again, but yo, it's it's it's it's
Speaker 1: a beautiful thing to be able to express yourself with
Speaker 1: words and people fall in love with that, that part
Speaker 1: of your um, that part of your talent, that your energy,
Speaker 1: your your ability to deliver a story like that, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So you know it's it's a blessing, bro,
Speaker 1: it really is. Man, And they have somebody that you
Speaker 1: don't even know step up and and say they willing
Speaker 1: to give you a kidney. And not only were they
Speaker 1: willing to give me a kidney, will they put their
Speaker 1: names on the hospital register, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: For for actual people that were willing to donate kidneys.
Speaker 1: And I think, if I'm not mistaken, it was like
Speaker 1: fifty people on that list. They just stopped, they shut
Speaker 1: the list down. It was that meaning people that were
Speaker 1: willing to give me the gift of life. Man, it
Speaker 1: was hitting me up in my dams, like like they're
Speaker 1: hitting me up. I know they're hitting you up, and
Speaker 1: they're hitting other people up. I'm seeing this come in man,
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know, like I know your contribution. Man,
Speaker 1: I was there the whole time, but to see the
Speaker 1: reaction from the fans, to see them people just like say, hey,
Speaker 1: Willie D can you tell Brad that I'll give him
Speaker 1: a kidney? I'm healthy. I never smoked before, I drink before.
Speaker 1: How do I get involved? You know? Can you put
Speaker 1: my name on the list? Like damn? Like it tripped
Speaker 1: me out, like I knew. I mean, I've been to concerts.
Speaker 1: I've been into your concerts where I've seen you on
Speaker 1: stage and I've seen grown man. Cry well, I've been
Speaker 1: on stage and i'd seen some grown What are you
Speaker 1: talking about me? I've seen you kicked them on the
Speaker 1: face off the stage. What we're talking about We're talking
Speaker 1: about you. We're talking about you. I said you kicked
Speaker 1: the funk out of something. I like, yeah, damn, when
Speaker 1: are we gonna be fighting? Like I've never kicked anyone
Speaker 1: that didn't deserve it? Okay, reason yeah, yeah, But but
Speaker 1: you know this is that I didn't. I was not
Speaker 1: expecting you to say that. You know, man, my pastor
Speaker 1: watching this stuff, Your pastors watching right now, My pastors
Speaker 1: watch ship. We better stop cushing in, Willie. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I gotta stop that ship man now. But anyway, man, anyway,
Speaker 1: moving forward, how did you prepare for this? You know,
Speaker 1: like it you knowing that you know what you're what
Speaker 1: you're going through. How did you prepare? How did you
Speaker 1: stay positive throughout all your struggles? I mean I saw you, bro,
Speaker 1: I I've heard your voice. Sometimes you were up, most
Speaker 1: of the time you were down. I never know what
Speaker 1: to expect when I called you. I didn't know what
Speaker 1: type of condition that you were in from day to day.
Speaker 1: How did you remain positive? Uh? In all honesty, Willie,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't even think. I you know what.
Speaker 1: I think that Chris kept me in the spirit m hm.
Speaker 1: You know, because he's always coming there and he has say,
Speaker 1: you know how much time we gotta left? You know,
Speaker 1: two more weeks, two more days, Oh we gotta wake up.
Speaker 1: You know. That kind of ship and that that kind
Speaker 1: of kept me um inspired. Man. You know, but when
Speaker 1: it's all said and done, you know, it's it's nothing
Speaker 1: like being on that fucking machine, Willie, you know, and
Speaker 1: and and and the feeling that you get when you
Speaker 1: get off of it. All you can do is just sleep,
Speaker 1: you know, you just be drain because it's sucks your
Speaker 1: fucking blood out and it sucks all of the fluid
Speaker 1: out and puts it back in your body. And it's
Speaker 1: just like, Man, I don't I don't want to do
Speaker 1: this ship no more so, my um man. My advice
Speaker 1: to anybody until everybody that still has function in kidneys, man,
Speaker 1: is to make for goddamn show that you get you
Speaker 1: a nefrilogist, man, and you keep up with that. You know,
Speaker 1: we're looking out for our blood pressure and our heart
Speaker 1: and ship like that, but we're not checking for our kidneys.
Speaker 1: And we should really be checking for that ship because
Speaker 1: now that I think about it, like your heart can
Speaker 1: go and they can put stints in it though they
Speaker 1: can you know what I mean, they can put you
Speaker 1: can put a defibrillate or whatever. Then that thing is
Speaker 1: you know, uh, whatever that is to make your heart work,
Speaker 1: what is it? Call? I'm not sure what you're talking about, Willy,
Speaker 1: you know, goddamn will you adopted almost no, because yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a pacemaker, Willy, it's a pacemaker. Yeah, it's a pacemaker.
Speaker 1: They put that ship and they put stints in, they
Speaker 1: do this and do that. You know, heart can be
Speaker 1: you know, but man, once the kidneys to go, you
Speaker 1: on the machine, yeah, man, that man, that machine a motherfucker. Man.
Speaker 1: Then you can ask anybody and and it's it's people
Speaker 1: that's done way more, way more years than I have
Speaker 1: done on the dialysis machine. And man, I feel for
Speaker 1: them and I respect them, but I just prayed that
Speaker 1: they get get that kidney, man, you know, like I
Speaker 1: pray that they get that kidney because it's nothing like
Speaker 1: being detached from a machine that she was attached to,
Speaker 1: you know for all that time. And I only spend
Speaker 1: a year and a half on it. Okay, So I know,
Speaker 1: I I know I shouldn't be talking about it, but bro,
Speaker 1: I don't never want to do that no more. So
Speaker 1: whatever it takes to avoid getting on that machine again,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do. Let's rewind. Go ahead, what did the
Speaker 1: doctor tell you that you could have done to prevent
Speaker 1: that in the first place? The whole process of losing
Speaker 1: you're having kissing so so here's the thing. Will So
Speaker 1: from the time I was twenty five up until now,
Speaker 1: you know, I've been struggling with my blood pressure issues, okay,
Speaker 1: and that blood pressure issued that carried all of those
Speaker 1: years when the COVID came. When the COVID came, it
Speaker 1: just knocked that pre existing condition out. You feel me
Speaker 1: like like if if if you have any problems, any
Speaker 1: pre existing conditions, when the cavid come, that's gonna kill it.
Speaker 1: It's coming, you know what I mean, It's gonna happen.
Speaker 1: So first it filled my lungs up with fluid and
Speaker 1: couldn't kill me. Then it filled my heart up. The
Speaker 1: sack of my heart is filled it up with fluid.
Speaker 1: So I had eight hundred and fifty c season fluid
Speaker 1: in my heart and it collapsed one side of my heart.
Speaker 1: So they drained that ship out um my lungs. They
Speaker 1: ended up um getting getting that water off my lungs
Speaker 1: and fluid off my lungs, and then it just hit
Speaker 1: my kidneys and killed it. So my creating level went
Speaker 1: up to a nine that day when I caught the covid,
Speaker 1: So you saw it rise and it just went to
Speaker 1: a nine. So the kidneys was gone. And what is
Speaker 1: a normal level one one between one and three and
Speaker 1: so at nine years years past, yeah, you're gonna out
Speaker 1: of there. As a matter of fact, when I got
Speaker 1: this kidney, it actually went into um rejection. And that's
Speaker 1: when I went back to the hospital. When you see
Speaker 1: me the second time in the hospital or the third time, whenever,
Speaker 1: time it was um. So the an he went in
Speaker 1: the rejection. So I stopped paying again. And remember this
Speaker 1: thing right here, don't remember that, Okay, they put it
Speaker 1: on this side now. So they plugged me back into
Speaker 1: the dialize and then they gave me some more immune
Speaker 1: suppressing UH drugs to go ahead and take my immune
Speaker 1: system down even further so my body won't attack that
Speaker 1: kidney because it was like the kidney was throwing up
Speaker 1: the wrong gang signs and my body and the mother like,
Speaker 1: who is this nigga? Say, we know y'all two back here.
Speaker 1: You know I stual have got two other kidneys too.
Speaker 1: So they put the yeah I got two other kidneys.
Speaker 1: They got the kidneys, the original kidneys they in there.
Speaker 1: I thought they took them out. They don't take that
Speaker 1: ship out. They never take the one, no, sir. So
Speaker 1: they stayed not how does that work? What is the
Speaker 1: purpose of keeping them there? I don't know. I ain't
Speaker 1: mad at the motherucker still lad but ship, I mean,
Speaker 1: they didn't take them out, Willie. They just put him
Speaker 1: in there. They just put another one in there. So
Speaker 1: then I got three kidneys. I got three whole fucking kidneys.
Speaker 1: That's that's news you can use. Yeah, you got three kidneys,
Speaker 1: and I got a buddy that's got four. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: uh to Farroh Cook is in um. He may be
Speaker 1: in Tampa now, but he runs as you should look
Speaker 1: him up to. He's got a cool little thing for people,
Speaker 1: that Scott kidney failure, and he really helped me a lot.
Speaker 1: I'm just thinking that some people have had five and
Speaker 1: six kidney transplants? Are you serious there? Every last one
Speaker 1: of them saying probably, and is the only person and
Speaker 1: Show was the only person I know that that um
Speaker 1: only has one kidney because they took his ship out
Speaker 1: because he said the kids kidneys with twenty two pounels
Speaker 1: a piece. So how motherfucker's had to be this big?
Speaker 1: He had two babies in his body. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: he had twenty two pounds of kidneys and his ship
Speaker 1: and they they removed his kidneys. Yeah, yeah, your son
Speaker 1: Chris did an honorable thing by he did his kidney.
Speaker 1: He did. What How did you guys get to that moment?
Speaker 1: What I mean, how did you don't know him with
Speaker 1: the ask? Hell, come on, I asked him for ship.
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I'm pissed so much. Will
Speaker 1: he need to come get this motherfucker back? Or you do?
Speaker 1: You would you'd like me to help you schedule? No, man,
Speaker 1: he got a young kidney to that motherfucker's every big
Speaker 1: team in is I'm in the bathroom pissing like a
Speaker 1: race horts drip mout mutic what they call it. But
Speaker 1: I don't know how he came to that conclusion. But
Speaker 1: once his mind was made up, he's a whole lot
Speaker 1: like his dad. And once once it's once, says yes,
Speaker 1: it's yes once his note, you ain't even got ask
Speaker 1: no more. H Yeah. So that's where we are similar
Speaker 1: in a lot of ways. You know, when the decision
Speaker 1: is being made, what's the first exciting thing that you
Speaker 1: did that you couldn't do and pass? Once you got
Speaker 1: your kidney and you you were healthy on the ground
Speaker 1: moving around again, the first thing I did, man, I
Speaker 1: ate some fucking ice cream, Willie, and a chocolate brownie.
Speaker 1: Listen to that, man. That's simple, man. Everybody, everybody with
Speaker 1: kidney failure that's on dialysis right now. No, you cannot
Speaker 1: have chocolate and you cannot eat ice cream. And that's
Speaker 1: the first thing I did, Bro. I got me some
Speaker 1: chocolate ice I mean, I got me some vanilla ice
Speaker 1: cream chocolate brownie. And then for dinner, I got me
Speaker 1: a milk. Well, you're not supposed to drink milk anyway.
Speaker 1: I don't give a funk, Willie. I drunk some milk.
Speaker 1: Milk is for cows. I'm a fucking cowboy. I'm a bull, bro,
Speaker 1: I'm a fucking bull. Now. Now what did you drink
Speaker 1: the milk with? Man? What you brownie? Willie? I've been
Speaker 1: eating weed, man, like it's a lot of chicken. So
Speaker 1: you ain't the brownie and you and you flush it
Speaker 1: down with milk. I did. But I'm telling the milk,
Speaker 1: white man, white milk. Man. Listen, where don't drink known
Speaker 1: that it tastes good like milk. I've been eating weed
Speaker 1: with it. How is that experience? Man? And did you
Speaker 1: eat we eat today? Willy man? It's nice man, hey,
Speaker 1: so so let me say this man, so, so the
Speaker 1: whole while I'm on dialys is I'm not smoking weed, okay,
Speaker 1: and and and a man like it's been a while
Speaker 1: like because we like when I got old and ship
Speaker 1: in my chest started like I smoked too much weed
Speaker 1: and my chest was hurt real bad. Right, So my
Speaker 1: son with his ass, he comes in the house with
Speaker 1: some edibles. He said, pop. He caught me pop, try

Speaker 1: came back and cut the ac condition all the way
Speaker 1: down to like sixty, and then I was cool. Yeah,

Speaker 1: I don't know hip hop I can exactly, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. So everybody's like, man, you saved the legend,
Speaker 1: you saved the icon. But to you guys, that's who
Speaker 1: I saved. But for me, I just saved my dad.
Speaker 1: And that's where I'm going with this because I know
Speaker 1: you know you like that, right, I know you to
Speaker 1: be an honorable cat, And I know that that ain't
Speaker 1: what That's not what moved you. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I know that you was moved by your love for
Speaker 1: your father, right, you did. And I haven't said that.
Speaker 1: Your father talked a lot of ship to you. He'd
Speaker 1: be smacking like him up, he'd be cracking on you.
Speaker 1: Like has that changed? It ain't changed, not at all,
Speaker 1: not even a little bit confect. What you hear the
Speaker 1: battery between man, it's just absolutely amazing. Even when he
Speaker 1: was in the hospital, he's like right after, uh, you
Speaker 1: know you did the surge, I was like, man, where Chris?
Speaker 1: He said that chumped down the hall. I don't know
Speaker 1: what it was. That's what I called all the boys,
Speaker 1: ain't chump? Yeah? What's up, chump? Because I'm the champ, right,
Speaker 1: I'm the champ. Yeah. You know what, though, Chris Man
Speaker 1: your hero. So I'm gonna change your name from chump
Speaker 1: the hero. Now he's still chumping me, man, Just Ris up, Chris, Chris.
Speaker 1: I saw that you had posted something about Oregon Donating
Speaker 1: UM after the surgery and everything took a place. You know,
Speaker 1: how involved are you in that capacity? Right now? I'm
Speaker 1: forming the organization to bring awareness and education to organ
Speaker 1: donation UM. I want to say, there's a hundred and
Speaker 1: twenty thousand people on the transplant list, and ten thousands
Speaker 1: of those people die every year waiting on the transplant.
Speaker 1: So if I could bring education and knowledge to Oregon donation,
Speaker 1: maybe there'll be more people like me willing to save
Speaker 1: a family member or even a stranger may ask your question, Chris,
Speaker 1: So you have one kidney, just one, and it's functioning
Speaker 1: just fine. And if that kidney go out, then uh,
Speaker 1: because I gave the gift of life within I believe
Speaker 1: it's ninety days. If need be, I would get a transplant. Wow.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so that is that is one of the
Speaker 1: perks of being a donor. You go to the front
Speaker 1: of the list if you ever find yourself in apposition
Speaker 1: you need Chris, she saved my life, broa. Yeah. But
Speaker 1: if you think about it like this, Um, I actually
Speaker 1: save two people, you know what I mean, because I
Speaker 1: saved my dad and then the person behind him on
Speaker 1: the list was able to jump up on the list
Speaker 1: because I took him off. Uh, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: They'll get that other person. Let me get there sooner, right,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Fathers, be good to your sons, man,
Speaker 1: you know, because I know something. I know some sons
Speaker 1: after like yeah, yeah, I got some sons like that
Speaker 1: right now. Listen, Chris. If like, I'm always hard on Chris,
Speaker 1: because Chris is a lot like me, So I really
Speaker 1: really tough on him. I don't think hard is the word,
Speaker 1: but what's the word Chris was after Hard was after hard. No,
Speaker 1: I'm really really tough on him because I know the potential.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I know he listened. I
Speaker 1: know he can see it. You know, I know he
Speaker 1: can hear it. You know. All he gotta do is
Speaker 1: take all of that ship and put it towards something.
Speaker 1: It's that Check this out, though, check this out. My
Speaker 1: mama used to say the same thing after she beat
Speaker 1: the hell out of me. I don't beat him up, mother,
Speaker 1: big Well, that's good, that's that's good because you know,
Speaker 1: sometimes I hear parents say, you know, I'm hard on
Speaker 1: you because I know your pretending. My mom used to
Speaker 1: tell me. My mama used to tell me, she said,
Speaker 1: I'm hard on you because you're going to be better
Speaker 1: than the rest of him. My mama used to say that,
Speaker 1: she said, you're special. Damnit, he's gonna be better than
Speaker 1: the rest of him. And I used to like be like, man,
Speaker 1: I'm a kid, I don't want to be if I
Speaker 1: got to go through this ship, I don't want to
Speaker 1: be better than the rest of I gotta take his asshippers.
Speaker 1: I don't want to be better than the rest of him. Hey,
Speaker 1: your mama wouldn't mean really, don't tell a lie. She
Speaker 1: wouldn't mean not to you. She was very nice to Brad.
Speaker 1: My mom was very nice to you. But now my
Speaker 1: my mom. It is what it is, man, And I'm
Speaker 1: not I'm not gonna try to disparage my mother, my mother.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. R I P. But you
Speaker 1: know the truth. But the truth is the truth, bro,
Speaker 1: and I'm never gonna try to sugarcoat the truth. I
Speaker 1: do believe that we all preach our eulogy daily. And
Speaker 1: if you don't want people to remember you in such amounner,
Speaker 1: you should probably not give those memories, right, You should
Speaker 1: not probably not act in a certain way. Wait a minute,
Speaker 1: did your mama hit you with with a fifth man?
Speaker 1: My mama hit me with your fists. Goddamnit, my mom
Speaker 1: and hit me with everything she could find. You know
Speaker 1: that that's the thing that wasn't everything that wasn't nailed down.
Speaker 1: That's why you're great, man, You're great women that I
Speaker 1: think that I think a bigger part piece of reason
Speaker 1: why I am who I am is because of my determination,
Speaker 1: my will not to fail. But that there have been
Speaker 1: a lot of people who have endured the same amount
Speaker 1: of atrocity and gave up, and they gave They wasn't
Speaker 1: as strong willed, right, and so they couldn't get through it.
Speaker 1: Some people it takes a little bit more nourishing, you know,
Speaker 1: for them to get to that those type of levels, right,
Speaker 1: that type of level of success. Right. Um, So I
Speaker 1: would not encourage parents to be you know, like extremely
Speaker 1: hard on their children because you know, like, you know,
Speaker 1: it's almost like like like like bending. You know, it
Speaker 1: was like like bending you know, a code hanger or something, right,
Speaker 1: you know, keep bending, you know, soon or later that
Speaker 1: thing or snap. You know. So that's the way I
Speaker 1: look at it. But man, I was watching being able
Speaker 1: to have a front row seat and watch what happened.
Speaker 1: Y'all don't even know how I made me feel. I
Speaker 1: was totally inspired watching you and and Chris come even
Speaker 1: just coming to the studio and you like powering through
Speaker 1: the interviews even though you were you know, you were sick,
Speaker 1: but you had made a commitment to do this podcast
Speaker 1: and you didn't want to let anybody down, including yourself,
Speaker 1: and you just you made it. I mean, you just
Speaker 1: came through and you got it done anyway, and and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, manh yeah, I saw it. Sometimes you came
Speaker 1: he was coming from dialysis, and but you got through it, man,
Speaker 1: and and to see and Chris was right there the
Speaker 1: whole time. And even when you had your bad moments,
Speaker 1: Chris was always elevated. His spirits were always elevated, you know.
Speaker 1: And so you know, witnessing that and then actually getting
Speaker 1: to the point where it actually was going down, like
Speaker 1: being in there the whole night, you know, sitting up
Speaker 1: in there and and and and and that uh in
Speaker 1: that room, in that waiting room, you know, knowing what
Speaker 1: was happening, what was going on at that time, read man,
Speaker 1: it was it was it did something to my spirit, bro.
Speaker 1: So man, I just that was something that was something
Speaker 1: remarkable happening. And I just I want to know, like,
Speaker 1: how has the experience changed your relationship? You know it
Speaker 1: has It is the relationship exactly the same as it
Speaker 1: was prior to ore. It's even better. I say it's
Speaker 1: the same because Chris his motherfucking answer say I'm going
Speaker 1: to song and so so and so, Dad, I'd be
Speaker 1: right back, and I don't see it for three or
Speaker 1: four days. You know that ain't changed, right, How has
Speaker 1: prior to surgery. Everything has been the same. But going
Speaker 1: up into surgery, I think, uh, that moment for me
Speaker 1: brought us a lot closer. It brought us a lot closer.
Speaker 1: I was always closer anyway, Chris, is in any way
Speaker 1: possible that you you can get the kidney back? Ragging
Speaker 1: on you talking ship? You know that do go in
Speaker 1: and repo to kidney? Is there a kidney repossession program?
Speaker 1: But I think that was possible? Man Like, Look, man,
Speaker 1: I changed my mind any I have donal remorse. I
Speaker 1: want to get my kidney back. So keep so, Chris,
Speaker 1: because you gave Brad a kidney, Dad, Brad your dad
Speaker 1: kid right? Uh? Is there any changes in lifestyle that
Speaker 1: you have to make? I can say, uh, for the
Speaker 1: first three weeks they wanted me to eat a low
Speaker 1: fat diet. But other than that, no, I mean not
Speaker 1: at all. A lot of people drink uh and smoke
Speaker 1: or whatever, and these type of things can can can
Speaker 1: have that very effects on kidney's right have they told
Speaker 1: Have they told you that you can't do anything like that?
Speaker 1: It's about just a lifestyle of moderation. Everything everything is
Speaker 1: in moderation. Yeah, you know, I mean, I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: go out and get plaster drunk. But I can have
Speaker 1: a drink it too. I'm not drinking ship. I'm sucking fifty. Chris, Well,
Speaker 1: I look like I hope not. I hope you don't.
Speaker 1: You can't have a drink. That's all the reason not to.
Speaker 1: It's all the reason not to. R I don't know
Speaker 1: what he needed this motherfucker kidneyfore he gave it to me.
Speaker 1: What did you do with You took really good care
Speaker 1: at myney. It's like, man, well he was a kid,

Speaker 1: you know, on that stage by yourself, because you you
Speaker 1: created a lane by yourself that nobody can get in.
Speaker 1: And I think it's good to see for people to
Speaker 1: see you do your thing by yourself and then come
Speaker 1: back and be able to appreciate what you did with
Speaker 1: the Ghetto Boys. So I am looking forward to that.
Speaker 1: We're gonna have a good ass time too. Yeah. Um.
Speaker 1: And when you think about my career, you can't and
Speaker 1: and I want everybody to notice, you can't talk about
Speaker 1: or speak on my career without speaking on Willie because
Speaker 1: Willie was one of the biggest inspirations to me. You know.
Speaker 1: I used to man, look, man, if you throw them
Speaker 1: through my fucking phone, and this is my this is
Speaker 1: my iPhone. If you look the only albums that I
Speaker 1: have in my phone or albums that I funk with
Speaker 1: right and I have the real original controversy album Bam
Speaker 1: on my ship it is I got it on my
Speaker 1: ship and my favorite song on here is all of
Speaker 1: them but from Mexico triple across from Mascoat. That ship
Speaker 1: is the ship man. I had a friend, well at
Speaker 1: least that's what I thought he was when we begin
Speaker 1: our friendship was stronger in the steroids. I took him
Speaker 1: in because he had nowhere to go, uh fetish, treated
Speaker 1: like a king clothes. One day I came home from
Speaker 1: work early, uh with a high fever holding up the dog.
Speaker 1: Guess what I saw him? Making love to a beaver.
Speaker 1: It was kind of funny, so I laughed, but soon
Speaker 1: became up tighten because when I looked a little close
Speaker 1: and I saw that that beaver belong to my wife. Oh.
Speaker 1: I beat the boy into a coma for the nine
Speaker 1: to be released. I shot to be several times, picked
Speaker 1: up the phone and calling police. So that was like
Speaker 1: like this album Bro, This album that Willie d controversy
Speaker 1: album BRO is one of my biggest fucking influences. Is
Speaker 1: one of my biggest inspirations because this guy got on
Speaker 1: the record and said, fuck the k k K. I'm

Speaker 1: even get up that good. I knocked that mother off.
Speaker 1: I wanted to fight, but now I'm the only ship.
Speaker 1: I don't want to fight no more. Chris. What's the
Speaker 1: name of the foundation, The Wayne Sea Wilson Quality of

Speaker 1: because this type ship that happens in my family. People
Speaker 1: be down and I'll be fine. And I like five
Speaker 1: years later, five years later, Bro, I put up at
Speaker 1: the house and I say, what's going on? Man? Get yeah, such,
Speaker 1: it's such just died last week. I I'm putting up

Speaker 1: gotta do better. Bad. We can't keep going out. Will
Speaker 1: We talk on the phone, damn the every day, but
Speaker 1: we don't be talking about that. Don't say b Yeah
Speaker 1: it's saying one thing that I'm glad we talked about. Man,
Speaker 1: is this situation right here the gift of life organ
Speaker 1: done donating? Yeah, that that's a beautiful thing. You're here
Speaker 1: on relationships. Um, it's my dog man. It's beautiful to see,
Speaker 1: and it's a beautiful example to see. You know, black men,
Speaker 1: you know who are who have a strong vond you know,
Speaker 1: because we're oftentimes you know, they try to put it
Speaker 1: out there like you know, it's something wrong with us,
Speaker 1: like it's something inherently wrong with us or something. And
Speaker 1: you don't get to see the stories like this. You
Speaker 1: don't get to see the positive images. And it's so
Speaker 1: the positive images just I weigh the negative images so much.
Speaker 1: I think I think that Chris is, um, he's a
Speaker 1: lot more forgiving than I am. You know, because because
Speaker 1: I don't, Um, I can't say that I was I've
Speaker 1: been the best father, you know what I mean, I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm not the greatest father in the world, you know,
Speaker 1: but still, you know, I do I try you And
Speaker 1: I know that we missed a lot of time together
Speaker 1: because of you know, different optacles or whatever. And then
Speaker 1: like like me being young and me being gone and
Speaker 1: me you know, working on my career and shipped that
Speaker 1: like that. I think that um, when we started, uh
Speaker 1: going on the road together and he started learning ship,
Speaker 1: he's he's it started to make sense to him about
Speaker 1: you know, why I was like I was and how
Speaker 1: I am like I am. You feel me like it's
Speaker 1: it's a it's a lot of ship that that we
Speaker 1: did this a young age. Like really, don't forget like
Speaker 1: I was seventeen years old, Like I was a kid
Speaker 1: kid and we was putting a position to be grown
Speaker 1: me in back then. Remember and you know, being a
Speaker 1: grown man back then didn't really teach your mother how
Speaker 1: to be a dad. Huh No, So I learned how
Speaker 1: to be a dad, you know, over the years, and
Speaker 1: it's just done on me now that uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I got a nine year old. You know, so you
Speaker 1: just found out that you had a nine year old,
Speaker 1: had to take that chance. Yeah, it really dawned on me,
Speaker 1: like funk, man, you are responsible for little lives now,
Speaker 1: you know, like it's it's it changed a lot in me,
Speaker 1: you know, like, oh ship, like these little people need you,
Speaker 1: like oh fuck, you know, you gotta say something. So
Speaker 1: I always, um make it a point that when they
Speaker 1: need some sound as advice, I want to make sure
Speaker 1: that I have it. And I tell Chris all the time. Man,
Speaker 1: anything that you thank you going through or anything that
Speaker 1: you think you're doing, like I already did it. So
Speaker 1: I can probably tell you how to get out of
Speaker 1: this ship. Just you know, let me know. Don't don't
Speaker 1: fucking hide it. Tell me, and I'm pretty sure I've
Speaker 1: been through that ship before. Tell me up front, don't
Speaker 1: don't wait, and then we gotta we gotta, we gotta
Speaker 1: fight like a motherfucker to get the ship. Just show
Speaker 1: me right now, you know, don't if you want to
Speaker 1: say so someone so, well, this is what happened when
Speaker 1: I did it, and I can almost guarantee you that
Speaker 1: this is gonna happen when you do it. Don'tant to
Speaker 1: do that. Yeah. So for for um, for my kid,
Speaker 1: to make sure that my life was extended, was nothing
Speaker 1: short of a hero, all right. And if you could
Speaker 1: say something that Chris right now, personally, right now in
Speaker 1: front of the world, to show your gratitude, what would
Speaker 1: you say to Chris? You even gotta buy me nothing
Speaker 1: for my birthday? Dog? And you know what, you you
Speaker 1: don't even had to buy me nothing of Christmas? Chris,
Speaker 1: I got two passes, two paso. That does that run
Speaker 1: for the Yeah? You know, you know what? And then
Speaker 1: I think about it, Chris, just keep your money, bro.
Speaker 1: You don't never have to buy me nothing no more. Okay,
