Speaker 1: They were very buttoned up. That's what we did at home,
Speaker 1: Like what is that? What else is that to do?
Speaker 1: What do you do in high school? And because some
Speaker 1: people used to find it. That's the movies. You go

Speaker 6: Baller Alert Show. You're listening to a special edition of
Speaker 6: The Baller Alert.
Speaker 1: Show with up is your man Pleasure Pete and you
Speaker 1: would now tune into the ball Alert Show. But then
Speaker 1: Pleasure p started making solo records. Well, we was a
Speaker 1: group and everything was going good. In the middle of
Speaker 1: let me see the middle of I want to say,
Speaker 1: the Late Night Special album, that's another classic. That's when
Speaker 1: things got a little. Egos started flying and amongst each other,
Speaker 1: people taking credit for other people work, and it was
Speaker 1: a lot going on. And I just wanted my money man,
Speaker 1: to be honest. I was like, you know, I stepped
Speaker 1: to their father and I say, yo, man, I want
Speaker 1: to separate my money because we would be so busy
Speaker 1: on the road. We don't have time to spend, no money, nothing.
Speaker 1: But when you get home, it's like you got to
Speaker 1: stay in the house. You can't do this, you can't
Speaker 1: do that. It's controlling controller and controller. I'm a grown
Speaker 1: man from the streets. I got a kid on my
Speaker 1: own at the time, I got family to to take
Speaker 1: care of. So I said, I want to separate my
Speaker 1: money and I want my own place. And he said,
Speaker 1: you ain't got no money. I said what I said, say, yeah,
Speaker 1: you ain't got no money. That get costs for this that.
Speaker 1: So they gave me an itemized list of because we
Speaker 1: all lived in one house. So if this was a cup,
Speaker 1: he charged me one hundred dollars for this, This was
Speaker 1: a fork, two hundred dollars for that. It was itemized.
Speaker 1: This was some bulls show. It was on some Don
Speaker 1: Cheetah type some bullshit.
Speaker 5: In a house in Miami.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, the same house you're seeing on Cribs.
Speaker 1: If you ever seen Cribs, remember I remember the same house.
Speaker 1: What was your reply to that? When he was itemizing everything,
Speaker 1: I know you got you frustrated? Yeah, I was hot.
Speaker 1: I was like, well damn well. You know then we
Speaker 1: had signed the contract because he was like, you know, boy, Atlantic,
Speaker 1: I need you all to sign this man because you know,
Speaker 1: we just that's that's the that's the old genius. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because I'll trust him. Yeah, he a street nigga. You know,
Speaker 1: we never you know, he gave us the opportunity he
Speaker 1: want to put up the money. To this day, I
Speaker 1: still think him for that, but he you know, he
Speaker 1: was wrong.
Speaker 5: How long was the contract? How long was it?
Speaker 1: I think it was like five albums or something like that.
Speaker 4: Album that's that standard that was kind of standing back
Speaker 4: in the five album.
Speaker 1: But the what the unfair part was? You know, he
Speaker 1: was a part of our records, you know, like I said,
Speaker 1: so let's say four of us wrote the record. He's
Speaker 1: number five on the record. You know, five on the record,
Speaker 1: so you know, because he put his money up. And
Speaker 1: then you know, he owned half of the publishing. So
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, It's like, damn, they own
Speaker 1: half the master. Then this, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: And then then it's four of y'all in this of
Speaker 4: us already, so now it's five y'all. Y'all got to
Speaker 4: split the money five different ways. We didn't get to
Speaker 4: split none. He took one hundred percent of everything and
Speaker 4: then pay y'all. No, we ain't never get paid. I
Speaker 4: ain't never get paid from him.
Speaker 1: So wait you wait, so it never got paid? Nah,
Speaker 1: we aint know no better, bro, get get a B
Speaker 1: in my check, he sign the back. What make sure
Speaker 1: y'all wanty straight? What make sure y'all you know all
Speaker 1: your y'all's gonna blow it?
Speaker 5: How old were you guys?
Speaker 1: I was in my early twenties. I was like twenty.
Speaker 5: But you guys were living a life that was different
Speaker 5: from where you came from. So is that why you
Speaker 5: guys did not question anything?
Speaker 1: Yes, So they lived in the suburbs I come, you
Speaker 1: know hood, you know what I'm saying. So he wanted
Speaker 1: all of us. His excuse was he wanted all of
Speaker 1: us death so that if we get a call and
Speaker 1: gotta do something, we gotta go get one from over here.
Speaker 1: So we just kind of it was like a frat
Speaker 1: house almost, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: So when you got this information in the itemized list,
Speaker 5: kind of like when you woke up a little bit,
Speaker 5: kind of like ice Cube did in n WA.
Speaker 1: I was ice Cube, did you.
Speaker 5: Go back and tell your other group members?
Speaker 1: Yes? I did. I did. I had a conversation with them,
Speaker 1: but they couldn't as they followed, so they couldn't understand
Speaker 1: it at the time. So it's a tension between us
Speaker 1: and then at that time I was doing records with like,
Speaker 1: I had a lot of street records, so I had
Speaker 1: to get you up with plies. That's my favor. When
Speaker 1: Yo Gotti I had released Prostitute, Wayne wanted to sign me.
Speaker 1: So I was around wayning them all the time, and
Speaker 1: I just kind of just stayed on the road. Did Jeroons.
Speaker 1: I put that out and that became Top twenty, and
Speaker 1: you know, I did that independently, and then from then on.
Speaker 5: It was just like at this point there's has to
Speaker 5: be tensions in the era. When you going back to
Speaker 5: these guys and telling them what you've learned, they're not
Speaker 5: believing you or they're they're so you know, they're very
Speaker 5: protective over their father. What what happens next? Like how
Speaker 5: do you get out of this?
Speaker 1: I listen, I didn't even know what was going to
Speaker 1: happen next. I ain't, you know. But my the type
Speaker 1: of person if I'm unhappy about something, why would anybody
Speaker 1: leave something successful? What I'm saying, like, come on, bro,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So after that it was
Speaker 1: just like you know what, bro, Like we stopped talking
Speaker 1: really and I went my way, so you just left
Speaker 1: they went, So I didn't want to be solo. I said.
Speaker 1: All I said to them is, you know, I sat
Speaker 1: down with Baby Blue in the studio and I said, bro,
Speaker 1: I ain't leaving the group. I just want my own
Speaker 1: place because we're around each other tenty four seven, Like
Speaker 1: I'm even my own space as kid, Yeah, growing up,

Speaker 1: to slick. I don't want to I'm nothing's enough right now,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: What all.
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, it had to be a life
Speaker 3: for you because you had a lot of success with them,
Speaker 3: but you had a lot of success on your feature game.
Speaker 1: Your future game was crazy. Yeah, the crazy thing about
Speaker 1: it he was turning down the features. So, like, let's say,
Speaker 1: bird Man got me on a song called Bossy right,
Speaker 1: it was only on his album, and he said one
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty grand if you're gonna pay it, you're
Speaker 1: gonna pay it. Not I gonna make him say no,
Speaker 1: And that was would you get the money though for
Speaker 1: the feature? No? Man, that's even sad.
Speaker 4: So he so he was kind of like suppressing, like
Speaker 4: your career, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Sending let us to radio stations tell him not to
Speaker 1: play my songs because because I'm signed to them.
Speaker 5: Like, oh, kind of, that's what I was gonna say.
Speaker 5: It couldn't you couldn't just leave.
Speaker 1: No, Oh, I had to go through a whole litigation.
Speaker 1: And this was like death row. It was. It was
Speaker 1: like death from minus the ass whooping because ain't nobody
Speaker 1: wouldn't nobody put their hands on me?
Speaker 5: But how did you get away? Like because you couldn't

Speaker 1: dollar deal with the Vikings. Play he play from? He
Speaker 1: puts Miami Hurricane. Yeah, we played from yep. So we

Speaker 1: he bought you out of your contract? Yeah he did. Damn.
Speaker 5: Okay, so you get out your deal and yeah.
Speaker 1: We go through this litigation and all this kind of stuff,
Speaker 1: and they were now going around saying, yeah, he signed
Speaker 1: to us, so whatever he makes and I'm like, bro,
Speaker 1: I put this record out top twenty, and you know
Speaker 1: I did all the work myself. So boyfriend number two,
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? You did you room? This
Speaker 1: is okay? So then it's like he was with him
Speaker 1: to settle, you know, settle out of the suit. I
Speaker 1: was like getting so much money at the time. I
Speaker 1: was like, you know what, if it wasn't for him,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be here. So you know what, he go
Speaker 1: five hundred thousand, you go, gave me five hundred thousand,
Speaker 1: you go your way, I go out. So I started
Speaker 1: off a million dollar debt with my first album just
Speaker 1: off of the recording, giving him that you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, and now everything that comes with it, marketing
Speaker 1: and promotions and stuff like that. You know.
Speaker 4: So so that your football home and he sent them
Speaker 4: that money or was that with the net.
Speaker 1: That came from the label? Came from the label? Once
Speaker 1: you know, he agreed to settlement, it was part of
Speaker 1: the settlement.
Speaker 3: But now you're in the whole million dollars. Yeah, so
Speaker 3: now you got to really get to get back in.
Speaker 3: So now I did you wrong? It is out?
Speaker 1: When does boyfriend number two come out?
Speaker 6: Right?
Speaker 4: After that that, so boyfriend number two comes out and
Speaker 4: Scott rockets number one and I know and I know
Speaker 4: He's like, damn now, so now how how the past is?
Speaker 1: They put out their record right, and then the next
Speaker 1: six months I put out my record, So they got
Speaker 1: their time to put out their record right. And during
Speaker 1: the process of us uh you know, doing the litigation thing,
Speaker 1: you know, they ended up well he will the dad
Speaker 1: what is it called? He tried to uh depose to
Speaker 1: see all of Atlantic records after they gave him all
Speaker 1: this money to do. He was winning, Like I, Bro,
Speaker 1: I couldn't even like one day, bro, I swould have
Speaker 1: got we were we was doing, we was doing. We're
Speaker 1: supposed to go to London and y'all I'm like, bro,
Speaker 1: my rent do? It's like it's round this time, my
Speaker 1: rent do? I gotta you know, pay my rent. He
Speaker 1: never gave me the money from the shows that we
Speaker 1: did or whatever the case may be. I need my money.
Speaker 1: He ain't give me the money, so I ain't making
Speaker 1: the flight. So that the label calls, hey, why didn't
Speaker 1: you make the flight? And I told him why. They
Speaker 1: say how much your rent is? I say, twelve hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: That's all. Come on, you're platinum, you play you got
Speaker 1: a platinum group. Now platinum we arguing on like when
Speaker 1: you really look at it, bro, like our ridiculous? Is that? Bro?
Speaker 4: So the label not even knowing what really going up
Speaker 4: when they find out, they're like this man, this man
Speaker 4: off his ship.
Speaker 1: He said twelve.
Speaker 3: I know you mentally got to be frustrated because my
Speaker 3: nigga ego.
Speaker 1: And stuff like that was just starting to change everybody.
Speaker 1: That's when I learned everybody candle handle fame and start
Speaker 1: because y'all superstars at this point right where then were
Speaker 1: supposed to be arguing recognition everywhere. You did everything we're
Speaker 1: supposed to do, made the right songs, did the right performances,
Speaker 1: did the interviews, you know for cities in one day.
Speaker 1: We did everything that were supposed to do. Brother to
Speaker 1: what that was to me, that would that would be
Speaker 1: my only issue. But outside of that, he's not a
Speaker 1: bad guy. He was just you know, everybody makes mistakes,
Speaker 1: and he was making his transition into you know, when
Speaker 1: does Pleasure Piece start making money and when are you
Speaker 1: in the green? I'm already making money at at digit
Speaker 1: Wrung and stuff like that because I'm hot in the streets,
Speaker 1: so I would just Yo, I'm on every show with
Speaker 1: Yo Gotti Live. I'm the only R and B singer
Speaker 1: on these tours and stuff like that. So that's what
Speaker 1: made them like like the label, you know, back me,
Speaker 1: like oh, so they put out they record, it flopped,
Speaker 1: and then my record came out and it was like
Speaker 1: a competition. I wasn't in competition with nobody, but people
Speaker 1: was in competition with me.
Speaker 5: Because then they replace you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was just about to say that.
Speaker 4: I think that was the big confusion, and I think
Speaker 4: that's what really costs you know, they records are kind
Speaker 4: of not do well because it was like a random guy.
Speaker 5: It was to replacement. Yeah, yeah, it was. But what
Speaker 5: they couldn't replace was your songwriting.
Speaker 1: My sound, Yeah, because the group was about the sound
Speaker 1: and the group was about the kind of songs. So
Speaker 1: when they dropped that album, you can see the difference
Speaker 1: between the two and them when I come out with
Speaker 1: my album, you can see the difference between you listen,
Speaker 1: you can hear the difference between who did what. And
Speaker 1: I think we was all confused as fans when we
Speaker 1: was watching one O six in part and then this
Speaker 1: random guy comes out saying, get in the group, Like, man,
Speaker 1: who the hell is this? Man? If you do this,
Speaker 1: you know, if you notice you watch one of six
Speaker 1: in park at the you know during the I wouldn't
Speaker 1: be saying nothing. I'll just be quiet. I just you know,
Speaker 1: it'd be something like, you know, something happened before, like before,
Speaker 1: so I just don't even want to be there, but
Speaker 1: I was there.
Speaker 5: I respect the way that you handle your business because
Speaker 5: you know how great, good and creative that you are,
Speaker 5: but you like just kind of like let people who
Speaker 5: want to act out do that, but you go handle
Speaker 5: your business like it's not. It's kind of like a
Speaker 5: jay Z type of thing, like people around him want
Speaker 5: that shine and he just let him do it. But
Speaker 5: then he goes and does like a big deal. Now,
Speaker 5: speaking of big deals, what was the deal with uh
Speaker 5: that you had got when you went to the label
Speaker 5: when it was just you and your label? Was that
Speaker 5: What was that deal? Like did they get fifty percent
Speaker 5: of your publishing or no?
Speaker 1: You know what I did to deal with Wanna Chapel,
Speaker 1: So a matter of fact, it was it was a
Speaker 1: continuation kind of deal from what he did. You know, Okay,
Speaker 1: and it was. It was you know, it was a
Speaker 1: regular publishing deal. But I wrote songs like Lollipop and
Speaker 1: other songs like you know, wild ones for Florider and
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't know you wrote Lollipop other
Speaker 1: songs like that. That kind of saved me too.
Speaker 5: How did you get that? It was your relationship with
Speaker 5: Static got you that? Mean?
Speaker 1: Static was working on my album. Lollipop was actually my
Speaker 1: record first, you know, me and Static wrote it together.
Speaker 1: Came from you know, one of uh one of them
Speaker 1: nights at the club, messing around in the studio and
Speaker 1: stuff like that, and then we recorded it. But I
Speaker 1: just I just didn't feel it fit. Same beat for
Speaker 1: the album, yeah, same same beat.
Speaker 4: So y'all went to the studio list said she want
Speaker 4: to lick me like a lollipop.
Speaker 5: So you wrote the whole song or just a hook.
Speaker 1: There's certain elements of the song that's that that that
Speaker 1: I wrote that's still in there, But Wayne, I obviously
Speaker 1: did what it needed to.
Speaker 3: You know, is your vocals on there, like miss show
Speaker 3: do you want to fuzz?
Speaker 1: That's all Static Static on that part.
Speaker 4: Why do artists not want people to know that they
Speaker 4: have songwriters?
Speaker 1: Because people be fucking with us, bro, like you will
Speaker 1: be fire like. Bro. The more the more I stopped
Speaker 1: the way, the more peaceful my life is. Bro. I
Speaker 1: swear to God, he would just be doing stupid stuff
Speaker 1: out of nowhere, just fucking with it for no reason though.
Speaker 1: I just I don't want to be bothered. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Just leave me alone.
Speaker 5: And that's what I meant staying out the way. You
Speaker 5: just do your business and stay out that way.
Speaker 1: Shit, I don't need to brag. My bank account will
Speaker 1: tell me what it is, but the people around me
Speaker 1: that those are the people that I love and care about.
Speaker 1: So I'm I'm I'm happy with that, Bro. I don't
Speaker 1: need no flowers from everybody else.
Speaker 3: Well you got your flowers of that versus though, because

Speaker 4: of blew that picture. Just a picture and the lyric
Speaker 4: from from a song.
Speaker 5: Let's talk about the record Galaxy.
Speaker 1: Can we talk about it?
Speaker 5: Where did the concept of that come from?
Speaker 1: Well? Galaxy music is just a different sound of music
Speaker 1: that I'm doing. And it's like music to where it's
Speaker 1: not as raunchy, but it's just sexy. It's something to
Speaker 1: where you gotta put your cologne on and light a
Speaker 1: candle and you know just how that kind of vibe.
Speaker 1: If you're smoke you could smoke to it. It's just,
