Speaker 3: How did it all start for Bigger Ranking? Man? I
Speaker 3: mean everybody knows about the artist got back. Yeah, from
Speaker 3: day one.
Speaker 1: Oh man, I just feel like I'm one of those
Speaker 1: kids that was born to be a star. When I
Speaker 1: was about four months old, kidding is nothing work, I'd
Speaker 1: have swolled up. So they they figured I was gonna die.
Speaker 1: So they tied my little big toes together and put
Speaker 1: me at the foot of the bed. My grandmama came
Speaker 1: in with two more old ads and boil a bunch
Speaker 1: of bushes, and I peed for four hours to peek
Speaker 1: on and off, and then they called me dead and
Speaker 1: wake and I was here, so I just felt like
Speaker 1: I felt like I came here for something. So throughout
Speaker 1: my life because they called me deadn't wake until I
Speaker 1: was about nineteen, I was scared of death. So if
Speaker 1: I heard somebody die from a stomach ache and I
Speaker 1: got a stomach ache, I don't go to sleep out
Speaker 1: of step up till this's old. You know, it took
Speaker 1: me a while, you know, to read your Bible and
Speaker 1: understand that. You know you got a barn Dad and
Speaker 1: expiration day, right, You just don't know where the expiration
Speaker 1: date is. So I might plan to go to Bahama
Speaker 1: next week, but I don't see it if God spared
Speaker 1: my life plan. But at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: God got the octimate plan for sure, for sure.
Speaker 3: So for clarity and like this, this is one of
Speaker 3: my favorite parts of our plant for let them know.
Speaker 3: Let's let's use the proper word. I don't know if
Speaker 3: you want to use the word artists that you broke
Speaker 3: or artists that you helped, or whatever the case is.
Speaker 3: Let's pop it a little bit and let them know
Speaker 3: some of the people that bought bigger ranking their help
Speaker 3: bring to the light.
Speaker 1: Man. I started from Ralls, JT. Money and you know,
Speaker 1: Jesus was like breaking Jesus and Florida was big for me.
Speaker 1: The first time I heard Applies was bigger. Yeah, Applies
Speaker 1: was my first big artist. Yeah, that was the first
Speaker 1: time I heard Applies my thirty six ounce. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: just went crazy on you both did. And then your
Speaker 1: guy it was taking him through Floyd. It was just
Speaker 1: a good thing with your guy. I didn't same thing
Speaker 1: with Dog. You know, God bless your soul, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying me. And you did a couple of
Speaker 1: Dog tapes, so you know how that is. And then
Speaker 1: I ran into Luci and every artist I broke. And
Speaker 1: when I'm breaking the artist, I always just take the
Speaker 1: sound like his mind. And then when I break it,
Speaker 1: I get back to him, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Cause I take it for the intro on and all
Speaker 1: that and do what I do. It's like I just
Speaker 1: move on to another artist. I moved to chain everybody
Speaker 1: I was mest. I moved on, but Luke you would
Speaker 1: never let me go. He would just call me a
Speaker 1: you know an unk, You're good, It's great. I need
Speaker 1: to did something to me like he was like a nephew,
Speaker 1: I need to pull me in, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And then you know, a couple of years after you
Speaker 1: and I got a couple of platinum records, a couple
Speaker 1: of gold records.
Speaker 5: He was the first person that put out my intro
Speaker 5: the right way on all the platforms.
Speaker 1: Said, oh, I want him to be in the video,
Speaker 1: and Fly was like a good person too. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I wanted to be in a good video. He was
Speaker 1: just so inspirational on him. Man, I'm just doing this
Speaker 1: for Cloud. I know, I get paid for this, all
Speaker 1: the injuries for clout so I can get more work.
Speaker 1: Then when I got my first being might check my
Speaker 1: manager JP set it up. Got my friend.
Speaker 3: I said, I thought it was a scam.
Speaker 1: When I saw that to give M on my phone,
Speaker 1: I went to the bank and pull all the money out.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I said, I don't know. Wake, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. He said, ter to them like,
Speaker 1: I ain't no king, I'm getting raw.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: I wanted to pull the whole whole thing out, the
Speaker 1: whole sack and took the home, put in the safe,
Speaker 1: and my man to say, okay, fool, that's the money
Speaker 1: you get off your song you're streaming. And I if
Speaker 1: this is what artists getting. Oh my god, I want
Speaker 1: to be an artist. Oh I want to do my paperwork.
Speaker 1: But if you don't fill out the white paper, you
Speaker 1: won't get another green paper.
Speaker 4: How much should you think you let slip through the
Speaker 4: crack before you did that?
Speaker 1: Oh god? And then I try to get some of
Speaker 1: the oldest songs. I still get paid off Gucca songs.
Speaker 1: You know. I try to get some of the oldest
Speaker 1: song they were like after three years or whatever, but
Speaker 1: some of them still come through. When I was you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, So I can't, like I said, man,
Speaker 1: lesson learn. It's like if you don't pay for a mistake,
Speaker 1: you won't learn nothing. But the ain't coat.
Speaker 3: Nothing, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And I lived a life of like I hated labels
Speaker 1: because I was a straight person. I break records in
Speaker 1: the streets and everybody complain to label. It's the label
Speaker 1: that until I got with the label and see that
Speaker 1: if you don't have a hit, they can't put it
Speaker 1: out right. So what are you talking about?
Speaker 5: So I had to go on the other side.
Speaker 1: So no, I learned both sides now, so you know,
Speaker 1: I'm an og and I pick my battles. I pick
Speaker 1: who I want to deal with. If I'm talking to
Speaker 1: you and you just sound like you know everything, I
Speaker 1: take my time and ease away from you, cause what
Speaker 1: can I tell you? So I don't have that type
Speaker 1: of problem anymore because I don't really inherit that problem
Speaker 1: like I used to. I try to help everybody like
Speaker 1: I was Jesus. You know what I'm saying. My mom
Speaker 1: always told me, if it's five people drowning, you jump
Speaker 1: in there to save out five. Only gonna be six
Speaker 1: drown people. Mhmm.
Speaker 5: It's one of the things.
Speaker 1: So I learned a lot, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: from breaking artists. I put more artists in the game
Speaker 1: than Phil Jackson. None of them can tell you. I
Speaker 1: have to call him and say, you owe me this
Speaker 1: or you owe me that. Because I get my blessing
Speaker 1: from God. I'm from no man. Can't no man bless me.
Speaker 3: How you managed to stay neutral through especially if you
Speaker 3: come in as a street djail. You know, sometimes you're
Speaker 3: working with this artist, who God issue with this artist,
Speaker 3: and it seems to be recurring, and it's always at
Speaker 3: the wrong time here, and you've had these conversations.
Speaker 1: How you managed to to say I'm neutral and I
Speaker 1: ain't in that ship When I went to workd CTE.
Speaker 1: You know, they may be the vice president because I
Speaker 1: broke Jesus through flow the nigga and everything.
Speaker 6: At the officer the computer, I said, Jay, what am
Speaker 6: I supposed to do?
Speaker 1: I'm like, try today. It nice what I do with
Speaker 1: my hands, jaj Just chill what I'm gonna do? Just
Speaker 1: follow me? You have fun. I swear I follow her.
Speaker 1: We do.
Speaker 5: Man, It's like we went everywhere doing everything that got you.
Speaker 1: Taught me Her and Erica, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And Erica called me one and said, I gotta do
Speaker 1: a deck for for Jesus. Jay, what the hell is
Speaker 1: it talking about? Because you know, when you come from
Speaker 1: the streets and you jump into the corporate everything just
Speaker 1: seems so red tapeish. Yeah, but it's just the right way. Yeah,
Speaker 1: being in the streets, you don't understand when the song
Speaker 1: get ready to put out, you gotta do all this
Speaker 1: stuff through it. Then now it's even different. You gotta
Speaker 1: do the content all this other stuff. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, We don't know that just being a record
Speaker 1: breaking in the streets, right. But it's good to go
Speaker 1: on both sides and learn because then you respect the
Speaker 1: game more.
Speaker 2: So you coming from Florida. Right, So he went from
Speaker 2: Jamaica to Florida.
Speaker 1: No, I went from Jamaica to Chicago. Okay, make it
Speaker 1: to Cargo to Florida.
Speaker 2: Okay, in Chicago to Florida today. Okay, I don't think
Speaker 2: it's nobody. I don't think you missing Florida saying be
Speaker 2: ranking them.
Speaker 1: Oh man, that's that's my state because I stamped that
Speaker 1: state when I was doing my thing in Florida. And
Speaker 1: I get an artist, I'm want to just break him
Speaker 1: in Jackson. I take him the games when I take
Speaker 1: him to Westboum Beach. I mean, you went through Florida
Speaker 1: twice on my birthday, you know. And I swear man
Speaker 1: when Fly signed me because you know I'm not really

Speaker 1: big chain. I stopped roll Lex. You know what I'm saying,

Speaker 1: everybody take the song. When I would leave, I said,
Speaker 1: like take if I have took him, and I just
Speaker 1: did what I gotta do. But the way everybody was
Speaker 1: just brothers. It was just a brotherhood. And then you know,
Speaker 1: Jay came with me when I went with and they
Speaker 1: couldn't eat until six o'clock in the year.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was wrong.
Speaker 1: I felt mad, but I was so goddamn.
Speaker 6: Every time J C me I had a sandwich, JJ like,
Speaker 6: why you gotta come up here with it, I'm like,
Speaker 6: I gotta pass you.
Speaker 1: You know. But that to show all that it was
Speaker 1: just fun. Yeah. We never had a bad time. We
Speaker 1: never had no gun playing, no nothing. It was just
Speaker 1: all a good time. You know what I'm saying. I
Speaker 1: try to take you know, they got a new young
Speaker 1: fellas right now and I'm telling them, like, you.
Speaker 3: Got too much going on.
Speaker 1: I can't take you.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 1: What he was like, oh man, you know we scared
Speaker 1: of the nigga bigger we up on him. I said, well, no,
Speaker 1: you're not winning the war. You just a survivor. Damn
Speaker 1: you know win, You just a survival. So you're fighting
Speaker 1: over something you really don't know. What you're fighting over
Speaker 1: and me being with you. I'm gonna shake the person's
Speaker 1: hand that might shoot me for something I don't know
Speaker 1: nothing about. So so I kind of backed up a
Speaker 1: little bit and start investigating people before I take him out,
Speaker 1: because if I don't know how you're living, I don't
Speaker 1: want to live with you.
Speaker 2: I just saw you with uh Strong down there. I
Speaker 2: just saw them how that went.
Speaker 1: That was beautiful. It was It was something for the
Speaker 1: culture because you know, they said we had to go
Speaker 1: get bigger the hostess because I'm the one that broke
Speaker 1: Strong back in the days, you know, and then move
Speaker 1: boy he he he. He had different rappers, he got
Speaker 1: a little different styles, you know, but he's a good dude.
Speaker 1: So who wanted want better be honest with you. Man.
Speaker 1: It was so it was it was so hyped that
Speaker 1: both of them one yeah, one foe. Man. You know,
Speaker 1: it was for the culture. It was for the city
Speaker 1: because in Atlanta, when when when when when? And jeez,
Speaker 1: we're going through it. That was the biggest down there.
Speaker 1: There was the biggest. So when you can squash and
Speaker 1: everybody feel like it's not that important to fight anymore,
Speaker 1: it's a way of setting example you know, because it
Speaker 1: took me a while to learn how to be humble
Speaker 1: in life about.
Speaker 4: Uh, they they had balls and everything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it took me a while to be humbling.
Speaker 5: I had to I had to start walking with this
Speaker 5: bishop and they started teaching me.
Speaker 1: How to be humble, you know. And he said, after
Speaker 1: a year walking, I'm gonna I'm gonna come back and
Speaker 1: quiz you about some stuff. We walked. We stopped with pray.
Speaker 1: The first week, I said, we walked a mile and
Speaker 1: a half to the roundabout in the trail, in the
Speaker 1: mile and a half back, three miles my Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, sunning.
Speaker 1: And I said, I said, man, every day this seems
Speaker 1: like it's further and further. Man, he said, you know
Speaker 1: what your problem is, mister bigger ranking. You'll fix youate
Speaker 1: on the destination. Let's enjoy the journey for me. I
Speaker 1: want you to look at that Look look at that river. Okay,
Speaker 1: look at the ducks in the river. You know, Look
Speaker 1: at the deer they changed color twice a year. Take
Speaker 1: some pictures of that, take some pictures of the fish
Speaker 1: strimming in the water. And we do that. We stop
Speaker 1: and pray, and the destination was like oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm here. So he taught me how to really work
Speaker 1: through life. For certain things that he taught me about
Speaker 1: about reaction is weakness and respond to strength. Quit reacting
Speaker 1: to stuff because some of them my call and said, hey, man,
Speaker 1: I saw your wife hugging and him do it. In themorrow,
Speaker 1: you're gonna call, hey, what did you get? It might
Speaker 1: be her brother, her cousin, might be the minister from
Speaker 1: the church.
Speaker 4: Reactor.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so he said, ninety of the time, reaction gonna
Speaker 1: bring you some problem. So I learned to stop reacting.
Speaker 1: And need helped me with my kids, help me with
Speaker 1: my grandkids. You know, it seemed like getting rerected looking
Speaker 1: at me better. So sometimes you act like you know
Speaker 1: a lot, but going through life you can learn a lot.
Speaker 1: You just gotta willing to listen.
Speaker 2: Now, I remember you just to be posting to do
Speaker 2: the way from you can Florida, Uh pass away from.
Speaker 1: Now he's from he's from Tennessee, but he lived here, Okay,
Speaker 1: and we do a lot. He went to Africa to speak,
Speaker 1: He went to Brazil. So when you get back and
Speaker 1: we get back on our thing, you know, but while
Speaker 1: he be gone, it's something were missing out my life
Speaker 1: because without a relationship with God, it's an empty barrier
Speaker 1: rolling down the street making a lot of noise, you know.
Speaker 1: And I learned the quick the mote that the best
Speaker 1: relationship we have with God is the more easier life flow.
Speaker 1: So so I tell people that went to prison, like
Speaker 1: and somebody asks you how many time you spend in prison,
Speaker 1: just tell them how long you've been free. Don't ever
Speaker 1: reminisc him, because that's that's the past. And when you're
Speaker 1: asking God to come home, thank him that you're home.
Speaker 1: Let him know you got faith you already. You know
Speaker 1: you believe you're gonna be home, right, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And I don't know, Man, every day being
Speaker 1: an old g is not just to be an old dude.
Speaker 1: You have to go through things and you got to
Speaker 1: accepting and be accountable for stuff. And that's what I
Speaker 1: learned to do and that's why I'm so humble right now.
Speaker 4: Ever, have like a a moment you was like, man, fuck,
Speaker 4: SHM through it.
Speaker 1: Ohy time, man, plenty of times I remember, I remember, man,
Speaker 1: one of my baby mama. You know I got I
Speaker 1: got twelve, I got thirteen kids. One die my son
Speaker 1: died in two thousand before you drown. I got two
Speaker 1: boys right now. The old youngest one is fifty. My
Speaker 1: youngest kid is fifteen, so everybody's grown. I got ten
Speaker 1: girls and two boys. I got sixteen grandkids. That's like
Speaker 1: a possi for me, because if I should have looked
Speaker 1: up my phone every morning and see everybody will tell
Speaker 1: me they love me and appreciate me. I really don't
Speaker 1: need the outside world. I choose to put up with
Speaker 1: the outside world, and that's my world. You feel me,
Speaker 1: and I feel some people like one of my big
Speaker 1: mama car with them, like damn nigg you're on the road.
Speaker 3: I just had my big baby. It wasn't even here
Speaker 3: for the baby.
Speaker 1: I said. I missed a whole bunch of my baby
Speaker 1: bird baby. If I don't come out here and get
Speaker 1: this money, I don't know how y'all gonna make because
Speaker 1: y'all depend on me.
Speaker 3: But it hit me.
Speaker 1: When she said that, and ever since then, the couple
Speaker 1: that was born after that, I was there for them.
Speaker 1: And now if one of my grandchilds have a graduation
Speaker 1: or analy thing, like my first granddaughter getting ready to
Speaker 1: graduate from Family this Friday, I'm gonna be there before
Speaker 1: the place open, because I'm not gonna let them go through.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. And the relationship is great,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I mean this music think's cool.
Speaker 1: But I just think I look halfway young because I
Speaker 1: take care of my kids. I think God bless me
Speaker 1: for that that I'm there for him. You know, right,
Speaker 1: A lot of us run around here and feel like
Speaker 1: when you get some money and.
Speaker 5: The cards and stuff, that's life. Life is watching your
Speaker 5: seed grow up, watching your sea walk in the graduation line. Like, man,
Speaker 5: you're grown and you're tearing up.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: You tear up, You're like, oh my God, Like that's mine.
Speaker 3: I did that.
Speaker 1: That's bigger than any million dollars you can get. That.
Speaker 1: Don't mean I don't want them, minion, that's big. But
Speaker 1: you see your children, you know what I'm saying, grow
Speaker 1: up and walk down the eye either be married or graduate.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Cool feeling. I had to
Speaker 1: an interview with y'all because it was turned into a
Speaker 1: conversation with I know, y'all.
Speaker 4: Why you think people gravitate to you like so much?
Speaker 1: Because I ain't got no Arterior Motives, and when I
Speaker 1: was in Jacksonville playing music, I was the only DJ
Speaker 1: ever and I can say it's so loud that they
Speaker 1: can hear me there. Ever put three thousand people in
Speaker 1: the club like on a weekly basis. No artists, no nothing,
Speaker 1: ain't no artists ever came to the club that draw
Speaker 1: more crowd than I did. I always I was. They
Speaker 1: called me Martin Luther King Jr. When I do a
Speaker 1: block party, the whole city shut down. And you know
Speaker 1: where that comes from. I came from Jamaica. I didn't
Speaker 1: come from no side of town, so I was neutral.
Speaker 1: Every DJ came from another side of town. I had
Speaker 1: to wrap this side of town. You either got a
Speaker 1: rep Aage, you gotta rep West. I'm from Jamaica. I
Speaker 1: was neutral.
Speaker 5: I would to ride talking that crap.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. And I know how to
Speaker 1: introduce a song make you like it. I don't give
Speaker 1: a damn how bad the song is. I'm gonna introduce
Speaker 1: the song and make you like it because just the
Speaker 1: words in the song, I'm gonna give you the definition.
Speaker 1: I remember when Jesus did Trap It Down, I was like,
Speaker 1: I don't catch you work at Burger king. I don't
Speaker 1: care work at McDonald's. I don't give that many work away.
Speaker 1: How whatever you're doing, you're trapping. If you're trapping, throw
Speaker 1: your hand. Everybody put their hands up, because the think
Speaker 1: about it is like nobody wanted to be left out
Speaker 1: of a good seats. So I look at myself on
Speaker 1: the microphone as the ghetto CNN. I have the news
Speaker 1: that you want to hear, right, so people always pay
Speaker 1: attention to me, you know. I talked with the mic
Speaker 1: why why I think Scream was with us in US
Speaker 1: in Dallas to Houston and he was playing and I
Speaker 1: was on the mic. He would dropping he dropped that
Speaker 1: shot the lord crazy. I could talk with any DJ
Speaker 1: along as the DJ got a nice selection of music
Speaker 1: for me.
Speaker 3: I asked for music because I might go somewhere.
Speaker 1: I might go to Carolina, somewhere might in Carolina, might
Speaker 1: be a bunch of people in there, and it's like
Speaker 1: you could tell that it's all low income, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So I might come up with something like, man,

Speaker 3: do you? How do you move in this current world?
Speaker 3: Wanting to have a pure heart and wanting to kind
Speaker 3: of assume that everybody that you see is good. But

Speaker 3: yourself up for partache but danger.
Speaker 1: I set myself up a lot of times. And if
Speaker 1: my manager told me sometimes he said, look, man, you're
Speaker 1: too nice. Sometimes you gotta be easy with this, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, because everybody doll means good and
Speaker 1: I think back, I think back. I know this Jewish
Speaker 1: dude in Chicago when I was young, he told me
Speaker 1: he said Jesus Christ was nice. They crucified him, and
Speaker 1: I ain't never knew what he meant by that. But

Speaker 1: Every time I come to Atlanta, I go into a studio,
Speaker 1: I'm on somebody camera. M I'm like, oh man, I
Speaker 1: like this. When I moved here, MTV rate me number
Speaker 1: five DJ in the South. I remember that.

Speaker 1: And then say, hey, man, jay Z was here. What
Speaker 1: say you won the award? Like, oh my god, I'm
Speaker 1: a mixtape these years. I'm like, oh my god, you
Speaker 1: know so man, It's it's just so many things happened
Speaker 1: to you when you're doing a lot of stuff, but
Speaker 1: when you expect it. Because I'm gonna tell you, I
Speaker 1: used to always want to win an Old Zone Award.
Speaker 1: I never win one.
Speaker 3: And the point you started your own award show.
Speaker 1: Too, of course, yeah, and and and peoples like, well,
Speaker 1: I know you're gonna win this year. And I tried
Speaker 1: so hard to win the Old Zone Award until I
Speaker 1: was getting award from all over the place.
Speaker 3: Trying to win that one award.
Speaker 1: And not to show you what work do for you,
Speaker 1: because when I Google myself and I see how many
Speaker 1: pages it is, sometimes it really like I'm flattered a
Speaker 1: little bit. Me walking through the airport.
Speaker 5: And and even if he.
Speaker 1: Said, oh, this bigger ranking, oh man, this guy loots
Speaker 1: all this, that's what And it was like, damn. My
Speaker 1: daughter was like, we got to the to the thing
Speaker 1: to get on the plane, and guy was like, can
Speaker 1: I get a picture with you? It's a bigger ranking
Speaker 1: And I took a picture and me and her sitting
Speaker 1: in the plane, and she took a picture of me
Speaker 1: and her in the plane. And then I read on
Speaker 1: the Instagram and said, my daddy is just so humble.
Speaker 1: He wanted to I almost cry because these people are
Speaker 1: so crazy about but He's just so humble, like it's nothing.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, that's how I feel ta say anything
Speaker 1: else when I sometimes I just feel like if I
Speaker 1: can't walk into the DJ boot, I might to stop
Speaker 1: and shake everybody hand and my wife be behind me
Speaker 1: with the sanitiz You're gonna get sick on. I just
Speaker 1: got to what I do, like I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: these people life, you know. Hm, oh no, It's just
Speaker 1: I just love doing this shit you do. I said
Speaker 1: I was gonna retire, but I spent one week at
Speaker 1: home and I would each in and stuff. I would
Speaker 1: down there at three, like cooking in the kitchen, burning stuff,
Speaker 1: nothing to do. You know.
Speaker 2: Why you think like, you remember how it used to
Speaker 2: be like a bunch of DJ cruise and ship.
Speaker 4: Why do you think they like they split up the DJ.
Speaker 1: Crews because I think the Internet kind of did that
Speaker 1: a little bit.
Speaker 5: Because everybody think their star on the internet, you know
Speaker 5: what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: When the Internet came in and you can go there
Speaker 1: and dejail on the internet, you felt like, why I
Speaker 1: need a crew? I got how many people watching?
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And a lot of people don't know how to use
Speaker 1: the internet, you know, and they don't really check and
Speaker 1: see how the out you know, how your post come
Speaker 1: up and and and how it changes because they see
Speaker 1: that people are buying. You used to go buy twenty
Speaker 1: dollars or thirty dollars with the likes or whatever on Instagram.
Speaker 1: You're paying thirty dollars and get your stuff boots Instagram
Speaker 1: and saying, oh so this is what y'all doing. Algorithms
Speaker 1: gonna change. You want them saving my amount of stuff?
Speaker 1: Now you gotta pay for it and you get it.
Speaker 1: So a lot of people don't really know how to
Speaker 1: use it, so they feel like they're doing great with
Speaker 1: twenty five likes.
Speaker 5: No, you're not doing great with twenty five likes.
Speaker 1: A lot of people used to see your stuff if
Speaker 1: you're not boosting them. Nowadays they're not seeing it. Stuff changing.
Speaker 1: And my kids, one of my grandkids and them, they
Speaker 1: be teaching me how to collaborate with other people.
Speaker 3: I ain't know how to do it.
Speaker 1: And you know, my grandson, come on, man, good, all right,
Speaker 1: you need to learn something now.
Speaker 3: My son showed me whatever I ain't know.
Speaker 1: I got a couple of the five people collaborate with
Speaker 1: five people, like, that's five different people. All this you mentioned.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: I didn't even know that.
Speaker 1: Because I'm just working, you know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: a lot of the I think the DJ crew broke
Speaker 1: up break up because of that. And then you have
Speaker 1: DJ crew, which is the head part of the crew
Speaker 1: is getting some money in that giving the other little
Speaker 1: guys something, and they found out, you know one thing
Speaker 1: about being the DJ. If the head of the DJ
Speaker 1: gets some big money, don't getting there. You feel like
Speaker 1: your old lady cheating on yourself. You're not gonna ask him,
Speaker 1: but you're mad. So I think that broke up a
Speaker 1: lot of the.
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, they became like competition.
Speaker 1: Yeah you feel me?
Speaker 3: Would you do the same thing right now in a
Speaker 3: dow haller anywhere? Like would you go through the same
Speaker 3: I guess I'm asking like the younger version of you
Speaker 3: or us or whatever the case is, like, would you
Speaker 3: would you?
Speaker 1: Would you be able to do it.
Speaker 3: The same thing the same way, meaning as in being
Speaker 3: in the streets and meaning with everybody and not your size.
Speaker 1: And nah, because number one I got I be at
Speaker 1: my own studio because there's too much stuff happened at
Speaker 1: the studio. I don't go to You're not gonna catch
Speaker 1: me anywhere because I don't know what you do the
Speaker 1: other twenty three hours when I don't see I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna be up in the streets trying to listen to
Speaker 1: your music. Come to my place, just you you know,
Speaker 1: we listen to you know what I'm saying. So I naw,
Speaker 1: I'm through the age nowhere. I picked my batteries like
Speaker 1: somebody might come to me. Hey man, you know I
Speaker 1: got twenty thousand dollar. Man, I want you to run
Speaker 1: like you ain't got twenty now, but you got some
Speaker 1: real bad music, Like you need to spend some of
Speaker 1: this money and get your music together and then go
Speaker 1: ask somebody to take it somewhere. But I'm too older
Speaker 1: bringing a whack wrap around it anywhere. You know everything
Speaker 1: from now and everything has been recorded. It's my fourth quarter.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna waste it. So if you don't have
Speaker 1: the talent, I have a budget, I just can't come
Speaker 1: drag geverwhere. You know what I'm saying, because I can't
Speaker 1: tell the light company I paid my bill when this
Speaker 1: man bus. You know, when you become a star, I
Speaker 1: got you let my light wrung. I can't do that.
Speaker 1: A lot of people don't understand that. So life changes changed.
Speaker 1: Back then, it was a.
Speaker 3: Little cheaper to do stuff.
Speaker 1: Everything costs. Now everything costs plus.
Speaker 3: Freeze to expense it because there's got no value.
Speaker 1: Whatever I do for you for free, you can always
Speaker 1: cuss me out about it because you ain't paid for it.

Speaker 3: they investing in their food. Well, you're gonna invest in
Speaker 3: the fly ship and all that ship is cool too,
Speaker 3: But if you put that money into your garden and
Speaker 3: your farm or having somebody make your ship, you can
Speaker 3: eat cleaning. It's just niggas be putting their money in
Speaker 3: where they want to put it. You said you ain't

Speaker 3: that's like a dream.
Speaker 1: What do You went to a farm and you loved it,
Speaker 1: and I feel like you.
Speaker 4: But what I'm saying, but right now niggas hustling.
Speaker 1: Yeah, watch no, mother, I'm gonna tell you the crazy
Speaker 1: thing about it. My doctor told me about all the
Speaker 1: things to eat for protein, right, but some of those
Speaker 1: adventures I didn't like. So this one doctor told me,
Speaker 1: he said, once a month, go buy you the biggest steak,
Speaker 1: grass fed steak and bake it, you know, And I
Speaker 1: bake it and I ate a piece of it. Oh
Speaker 1: my god. My pod flor So said, like something backward,
Speaker 1: what's going on? But I said, get the grass fed
Speaker 1: me And one doctor was telling me it's cool.
Speaker 5: Well here on on and one we're telling me, no,
Speaker 5: that's good. You know what I'm saying, it's a whole
Speaker 5: I feel.
Speaker 1: Like I feel like medicine. It's just for symptoms.
Speaker 4: It's just.
Speaker 1: It's not for cure. Cure don't make money right caring
Speaker 1: the food the right food. You know, you get a
Speaker 1: whole bunch of pills and you keep taking them. Doctors
Speaker 1: getting kicked backs this, you know, everybody eating. But I
Speaker 1: don't think them pills really heal you. I think they
Speaker 1: just cure you. I mean, I don't think they cure you.
Speaker 1: I think they just show the symptom down. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: Every time they get some medicine, they come back two
Speaker 4: three years later.
Speaker 1: Man, if you took this medicine, you might you might
Speaker 1: give you cancer.
Speaker 4: So do you believe in.
Speaker 1: In this stuff?
Speaker 4: Like, like y'all can see what I'm saying, Like you
Speaker 4: could be cured through food.
Speaker 1: Do what you eat? I believe it. I do believe
Speaker 1: in no guy. Yeah, I believe in no God because
Speaker 1: they're healthy.
Speaker 3: I don't know if y'all watch this canling. What's the
Speaker 3: ship on Netflix called Blue Zones, right and they talk
Speaker 3: about all the places where people living to one hundred
Speaker 3: hundred plus and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: So I think it's a combination of your food activity,
Speaker 3: like exercising all this ship, because you felt better when
Speaker 3: you started exercising, Like when you did your transformation wasn't
Speaker 3: just food. It was food, exercise, mindset, all of that.
Speaker 3: I think it's a combination of all that. I think
Speaker 3: I struggled with his sleep, sleep is a big part
Speaker 3: of it too. You gotta sleep to heal your body
Speaker 3: and yourself. But they said that you.
Speaker 1: Think cure cancer if you cut out sugar.
Speaker 3: That's I mean, everybody has the theories on how to
Speaker 3: do this and that and that and that. I'm just saying,
Speaker 3: based on that documentary, I think it's a hybrid of
Speaker 3: things because you can you can eat. Steve jobs ate amazing, perfect,
Speaker 3: But the nigga was stressed out. I ain'tetting no sleep
Speaker 3: and he checked out. I lived by Steve davis word.
Speaker 3: I lived by his word before he died.
Speaker 1: He said he wished when he was young he eats
Speaker 1: food like medicine instead of not eating medicine like food.

Speaker 2: Oh no, I put I put an album, god Father,
Speaker 2: I put out mix tape.
Speaker 4: But my first make tape, Bigger Ranking. It was the
Speaker 4: birth of Big Bank.
Speaker 1: We had we had a ball man. Yeah, I said,
Speaker 1: I got streams, stream drops and drama drops at the studio,
Speaker 1: Like if I'm gonna do a table with them, he
Speaker 1: drops there already he does.
Speaker 4: Okay, well yeah, yeah, drops already.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: One last thing, what y'all think happened with the mixtape?
Speaker 1: Though streaming? I still do mixtapes. Yeah. I don't know
Speaker 1: about everybody else.
Speaker 4: But why mixtape then roll over to like albums?
Speaker 1: That's what it is, what it is?
Speaker 3: Somebody why niggas didn't embrace it an impact of like, oh,
Speaker 3: mixtapes now it's like they're streaming this change like you say,
Speaker 3: the internet.
Speaker 7: Because this new generation doesn't respect the groundwork, not.
Speaker 4: Even new generation.
Speaker 2: What I'm saying is like like like how Bigger when
Speaker 2: Bigger talking on the record, Lucy saw hard as motherfucker,
Speaker 2: but he already had set the song up, same way
Speaker 2: with screaming and drama, drama and alligas.
Speaker 4: When them niggas on that, they really narrating the ship.
Speaker 2: Why niggas didn't adopt that and take it mainstream?
Speaker 3: I wonder when we had this conversation for you, if
Speaker 3: we want to know the truth, Yeah, the truth, because
Speaker 3: then when you bring into the streaming world now it's
Speaker 3: like official.
Speaker 4: So it's kind of like, oh, they don't want see
Speaker 4: no nigga, no the money.
Speaker 7: Basically trying to give up them points, but also too
Speaker 7: at the same time, it's only a chosen few that
Speaker 7: will have that effect. So like you got a Suprame,
Speaker 7: you got a Drama, and you got a.
Speaker 1: Bigger but shit, they can't talk on everybody. Shit No,
Speaker 1: but if if a person come in the game and
Speaker 1: hit me him a Drama, we get so many We
Speaker 1: got so many listeners on Spotify already. If we're the
Speaker 1: primary artists in there that gonna.
Speaker 3: Bring them up, there you go, So why not put
Speaker 3: us in the point systemless?
Speaker 4: You said, they don't do the same thing as a
Speaker 4: feature though, right.
Speaker 3: No, in the streets and the mixtape, you gotta think
Speaker 3: that the people who ate the most, they helped us
Speaker 3: become who we became for show. But the people who
Speaker 3: ate the most was the bootleggers. Yeah, the bootleggers got
Speaker 3: that money.
Speaker 2: No, I'm saying like if he were, if he'd have
Speaker 2: rolled over to get dollars, if he'd rolled over to
Speaker 2: like like right now, like how Drama just put out
Speaker 2: an album with somebody who.
Speaker 3: Is he talking to the artists. They got a good situation,
Speaker 3: they got a good thing going and this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but but I think it was like it's kind
Speaker 2: of like too late for that because it's nast seemed like,
Speaker 2: excuse me, it'shtink like.
Speaker 3: What we're trying to get.
Speaker 2: We don't want to hear niggas talking like if it
Speaker 2: was came like when the streaming came through and niggas
Speaker 2: were talking on records and it would have kept going.
Speaker 4: You get what I'm saying, But then you.
Speaker 7: Got but then you got like the like the Wallow
Speaker 7: and the Big X and like the ship that he
Speaker 7: did on Hunt off ship like you got. It's slowly
Speaker 7: starting to make a comeback, but all it's gonna take
Speaker 7: is the right nigga to crank it back up and
Speaker 7: set it up for everybody else to start doing it again.
Speaker 1: I didn't hunt your first ship and that's your stream like. Hell,
Speaker 1: I made some good money out for that ship. I
Speaker 1: did for him, But to me, I don't know. It's
Speaker 1: like some of these artists, like like like the younger
Speaker 1: younger artists, they loved me to death, and lady called
Speaker 1: me and say she need a intro for her artist.
Speaker 1: I didn't know who she was. I'm like, okay, I
Speaker 1: did the intro and I said said what I said,
Speaker 1: I do it for thirty five dollars, you know, so
Speaker 1: she give me thirty five hundred. You know. I did
Speaker 1: the intro. Then after that, I'm looking on Twitter. When
Speaker 1: the dude dropped the song, I'm trending, I'm like, I
Speaker 1: don't know who this nigga is. And now with Destroyed
Speaker 1: Long yeah yeah, and it's going and all these white
Speaker 1: kids talking about, oh that's mister Bigger ringing.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, white kids.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And the song when when he dropped his ship, he's
Speaker 1: on forty five hundred rolled him and then I found
Speaker 1: out he was yeah play card. I don't but I
Speaker 1: didn't know these kids. Yeah. Right when my grandson's called me,
Speaker 1: damn granddaddy, you want, I'm like I thought, I thought,

Speaker 2: People saying it gives you like a club feel like
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, like, and then the nigga
Speaker 2: like hold on, hold on.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: That ship was so hard.
Speaker 1: Bro, amazing, nigga. Just call me and say he wanted
Speaker 1: me to do a mixtape like my old mixtape. He
Speaker 1: was listening Jesus mixtape History on Jesus Man, I want
Speaker 1: my ship like that. Oh boy took my took my
Speaker 1: history and toasted on his YouTube. Church. You know, I
Speaker 1: ain't got two got too many m hm you Yeah.
Speaker 7: I found him in a long time.
Speaker 1: And somebody were like, this is not your take this church,
Speaker 1: this my tape. Cool because I'm the one talking about it.
Speaker 3: But it's cool.
Speaker 4: Look like, yeah, that's a lot.
Speaker 1: Of stuff I never made. No no problem because it's
Speaker 1: so much in the world to help you, so much
Speaker 1: left nobody can't take. But as an artist is different.
Speaker 1: You're to take an artist song and that's really bad.
Speaker 1: But let's take all right that geta mm hmm. So the.
Speaker 4: So before the streaming site Spinderella my mix taping.
Speaker 2: Out, they had a lot of money off before y'all
Speaker 2: get that.
Speaker 4: So they was the so they was the first online
Speaker 4: boot letters.
Speaker 3: Yep, yeah, call they want bootleggers. They was talking to
Speaker 3: us and the artists, so we can't the artist in
Speaker 3: us and knew they was doing saying but y'all ain't know.
Speaker 2: That it was bootlegging, because that's what it really was,
Speaker 2: if you think about it. They were just breaking y'all
Speaker 2: off a little something because 'all niggas thinking like ship
Speaker 2: bro this time, I wouldn't even had they just put
Speaker 2: it on the site.
Speaker 4: Nigga not knowing these folks getting rich all.
Speaker 1: This ship paying to put it on the site.
Speaker 4: Yeah niggas was paying. Oh my god, yeah I did
Speaker 4: that too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it got weird. But if it's meant to come
Speaker 3: back around, like like she said that the Chosen Few,
Speaker 3: it's gonna work out. It's gonna work out how it's
Speaker 3: supposed to work out. But I think it's needed not
Speaker 3: only this last thing I said, not only just the
Speaker 3: voice on it. But you can attest to this how
Speaker 3: many times we don't call an artist back and be like, bro,
Speaker 3: I don't like two or three of these songs in it.
Speaker 3: You should swap these albums. It's like having another ear
Speaker 3: like this song's cool, but they don't go for this project.
Speaker 3: So it was like an r and this shit too.
Speaker 3: You see what I'm saying. But now it's just like
Speaker 3: what artist is gonna go Like every artist, every song
Speaker 3: they make is hard. So now you got a playlist
Speaker 3: or an album with a deluxe with forty songs. You
Speaker 3: see what I'm saying. When you can have thirteen, fourteen,
Speaker 3: fifteen hard as songs, you can tell the niggas that
Speaker 3: kind of got some DJs around them, Pluto and Esco
Speaker 3: other people. You know what I'm saying. It's kind of
Speaker 3: kind of like I ain't gonna say like coaching them
Speaker 3: and giving them their input.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I think it's needed to
Speaker 1: get the shit that way. I think every nigga was
Speaker 1: put out a project, NA should be seven six or
Speaker 1: seven songs if it's your first time, and then if
Speaker 1: it started rolling, then you can reload it. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: I just don't think a new artist without a real,
Speaker 1: real back behind, I want to hear twenty songs or a.
Speaker 2: Brand you've want to hear three minutes, no more, nigga
Speaker 2: want to hear like one minute two minutes of a song.
Speaker 2: Yeah after that, nigga attention the Internet looking at that
Speaker 2: phone like like I guess what you know? I be
Speaker 2: strolling the internet and I and I and I realized, like,
Speaker 2: I think it something on your ten because I can
Speaker 2: listen to a I can listen to a post and
Speaker 2: skip it before I misget to the point, like I
Speaker 2: can look at it a little bit of it and
Speaker 2: then gone up like damn, why did you even look
Speaker 2: at it that long? You ain't gonna watch the whole thing.
Speaker 2: Same way with the album. With a song song song,
Speaker 2: come on ready, I mean on what's the name? You're
Speaker 2: the first part running back a little bit and then
Speaker 2: go to the next song.
Speaker 4: That's crazy, man, mm hmm.
Speaker 2: I think everything is pre playing for us to be
