00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 2: the King of the South. I will say that was

28
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 2: you know, that was a bold statement to be made

29
00:01:54,440 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 2: for someone introducing him first his first album, introducing himself

30
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 2: off to the industry. Uh, that had been you know,

31
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 2: I guess some some some silent acknowledgments of who the

32
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 2: King of the South or Kings of the South you know,

33
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,679
Speaker 2: should have been, which you know, which are agreed upon

34
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 2: by myself even you know. But but much to the

35
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: dismay of others who may disagree with my statement, I

36
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 2: spoke to those people before I presented myself.

37
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: As the king.

38
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 2: Really I got, yeah, I got the blessings of the

39
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 2: people who were honored with the silent acknowledgments before I

40
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 2: even introduced myself to the to the to the industry

41
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: as King.

42
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:46,240

45
00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: The world, And why was that important to you? Respect? Respect?

46
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: How much consideration?

47
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 2: I too agree, you know that, you know, prior to me,

48
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 2: that's you know, that's that's who I would have considered it,

49
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 2: who I considered to be, you know, the Kings of

50
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 2: the South. It was my time and I was, I was,

51
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 2: I was, I was claiming it. So I think that's

52
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying that That's what it was

53
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 2: about for me. But I I never wanted it to

54
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 2: ever be considered or or or thought or believe that

55
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 2: I was trying to diminish any contributions or doors that

56
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 2: have been opened by them.

57
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: Though. Now here's the bigger question.

58
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 4: If the conversation wasn't favorable, were you moving ahead as

59
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 4: the king away?

60
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: Oh no, I ain't even think that. I didn't even

61
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 1: think it that far through.

62
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 2: I really I was really interested in hearing how they

63
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 2: felt about it, you know what I mean? And I

64
00:03:54,800 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: was even more humble and and felt more were empowered

65
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 2: by their support.

66
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 4: Like we like to do here, Tip, we like to

67
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 4: go back to the beginning. Man, let's go back to Banka.

68
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 4: We like to go back to the beginning, to the

69
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 4: inception of the thing, the very first thought idea of

70
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 4: this is a possibility.

71
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: Okay, where was that for you?

72
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 2: For me, yeah, that was definitely that would definitely bank Head.

73
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 2: That was definitely like you know, west Side Atlanta. I

74
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 2: probably buy seven eight years old watching my uncles and

75
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 2: listening to what they were listening to.

76
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:38,239
Speaker 1: So that was a lot of LLL cool J too short.

77
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 2: NWA And I remember like the first thing that I

78
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 2: could do that was perceived to be cool by my

79
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 2: uncles and they homeboys. Was I used to wrap? Or

80
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,120

87
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,359
Speaker 2: probably after I finished my work before the glass and

88
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,120

238
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,160

00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 2: was eighteen years old and.

240
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: Let me see. Okay, so the process is all of

241
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 1: those Okay. So I met Kanyak.

242
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,319
Speaker 2: Then I ran into my sister and her husband started

243
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 2: managing me. That's kind of where a lot of my

244
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 2: artist development stuff where I started, like you know, jogging

245
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,599
Speaker 2: and reciting my raps, doing talent shows, going to studios,

246
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 2: doing the demo. It's like thirteen fourteen, start shopping myself around,

247
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 2: sending my stuff.

248
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: To New York. Nobody wanted to sign young Tip.

249
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 2: So then I jumped in the streets probably ride fifteen fifteen,

250
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 2: sixteen seventeen. So then you know, I was introduced to

251
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 2: the likes of Master Ptru, you know what I'm saying,

252
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 2: learned the whole lot about you know, selling, selling your

253
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 2: shit left. So then we started putting our money together,

254
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 2: going to the studio. We'll trap all through the week

255
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 2: and take Sundays off, go to the studio on Sundays

256
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 2: and we'll record where we were considering a psc album

257
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 2: and we were going to get it pressed up by

258
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 2: ourselves and you know, sell him out the truck. Now,

Speaker 2: I guess Tump had called to said he wanted to

446
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 2: introduce us to someone. So on a Friday night, after

447

448

449
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,919

450
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,080

451
00:24:56,080 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 2: shut the bubbleshuf down, so Tump comes in and introduces

452
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:04,679
Speaker 2: us to Jason Jeter, and Tup says, yeah, so this

453
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:06,160
Speaker 2: is this is my my partner.

454
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: Jay. I met him. He's uh, you know, uh an

455
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 1: upcoming music executive.

Speaker 2: He got he got he got great ideas and you know, uh,

457
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:19,159
Speaker 2: just a phenomenal approach to the business. And so we

458
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 2: sat in there drinking, talking, smoking joint you know, just talking,

459
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 2: and then probably about I don't know, maybe an hour

460
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 2: and a half into the conversation, we probably had to

461
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,960
Speaker 2: finish the twilve pack. Going back to the liquor store

462
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 2: and uh and Jay look up, look around, say so

463
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 2: where's the rapper and I'm like, Nigga, I just passed

464
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 2: you the joint three times. I passed you the joint

465

Speaker 1: don't know Americ because you know, I give my face.

468
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: I was unassuming, you know what I mean.

469
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 2: And and so then I guess the conversation changed. So

470
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 2: at that point, by the time we left there, it

471
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 2: was the four of us, Me, Tunked, Tooted, and J.

472
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,080

473
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,640
Speaker 2: that after after J came on, that's when we really

474
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:22,280

475
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 3: Uh.

476
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:29,439
Speaker 1: We got up about three four songs, and some happened.

Speaker 2: So that that that kind of a little different file

481
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 2: up under me. So I jumped back into the trap

482
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 2: and started, you know, I started trapping again. I figured

Speaker 1: I'm either all the way in or all the way out.

493
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,119
Speaker 2: So it was times where they wouldn't even see me

494

525
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 2: at Patchwork. So he worked at Patchwork, and he just

526
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 2: happened to know that a group called PA was working

527
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,959
Speaker 2: on an album and that group PA was looking for

528
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 2: young undiscovered talent for that album kind.

529
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: Of sort of like they were comparing it to how

530
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 1: doctor Dre did the crime, how he.

531
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,920

534
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,280

00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 2: you didn't like the intervention, No, no, no, nah, I

718
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 2: about another ninety days in between that experience too. You

719
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,359
Speaker 2: know when I actually started working, did it feel real

720
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:18,840

Speaker 1: know there were times where it then at times it didn't.

723
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 2: You know, because after I after I left the studio, okay,

724
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 2: so after I started working and ship, I still didn't

725
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 2: have no signing bonus or nothing yet I had signed

726
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 2: and you know what I'm saying, you got a process

727
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 2: and still waiting on your check and ship like that,

728
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 2: so I'm still going back to my mama house, you

Speaker 2: Times when I'm in the industry, the mixers and meeting people,

732
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,000

879
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 2: like you know, reasonable doubt, and then motherfuckers didn't see

880
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,840
Speaker 2: it at first, and then he had to come back,

881
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 2: you know.

882
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:26,760

00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 1: You're like that no music, that's about it. You don't

885
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:40,120
Speaker 1: know how I feeling.

886
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:43,759

Speaker 3: record too, I'm like, did you not give me your best?

888
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:51,600
Speaker 2: One thing I never had a doubt about was the

889
00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:53,040
Speaker 2: quality of the music.

890
00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:54,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, never I played it.

891
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:58,920
Speaker 2: I was very confident that whoever listened to it would

892
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 2: see the separation between it and anything else that was

893
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,319
Speaker 2: coming out at the time. It was just it was

894
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:10,319
Speaker 2: just a task to get motherfuckers to hear it.

895
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,359
Speaker 1: Then we got twenty fours, Be easy, rubber band man,

896
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 1: Let's get away. Yeah you went crazy. Yeah, those things happen.

897
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 1: So it's a different deal too though at this point. Yeah, no,

898
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:24,920
Speaker 1: well not exactly.

899
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:29,799
Speaker 2: So after the first album dropped and didn't perform the

900
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:34,360
Speaker 2: way I expected, and I didn't have an office to

901
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:38,800
Speaker 2: necessarily go to to kind of push things along.

902
00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:42,920
Speaker 1: I just had to take matters, or we had to take.

903
00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 2: Matters in time on our own hands. I was fortunate

904
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:54,600
Speaker 2: enough to be shown where the storage unit for all

905
00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:58,279
Speaker 2: of the promo product it is for my stuff, all

906
00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:02,680
Speaker 2: of those promotional only CD boxes and the snipes, the posters,

907
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:05,480
Speaker 2: the stickers and all that stuff. So we got all

908
00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:10,520
Speaker 2: that stuff, man, and started using it ourself and started

909
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:16,880
Speaker 2: driving to just areas a gas tank worth you know,

910
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 2: worth a time can get us to like Alabama, South Carolina, Pausa, Tennessee,

911
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,440
Speaker 2: Pasa Florida, you know.

912
00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:30,720
Speaker 1: And and we just started making.

913
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:36,480
Speaker 2: Our own relationships with DJs, program directors, music directors and

914
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:42,399
Speaker 2: and and and started to hand the hand word of mouth. Yeah,

915
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 2: you became team yeah, and now how we you know

916
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,520
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. Then, and then when we ran out

917
00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:54,400
Speaker 2: of those items, then we we we started doing mixtapes.

918
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 2: We had met DJ Drama who uh he said he

919
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 2: was working on this thing as tape series called Gangster Grills,

920
00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:06,480
Speaker 2: and so he asked me to do a freestyle for

921
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 2: something else. But then the first Gangster Grills was t

922
00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:15,920
Speaker 2: I and PSC in the Streets and that was kind

923
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:19,439
Speaker 2: of like a couple songs off of I'm Serious, then

924
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:21,480
Speaker 2: some PSC songs.

925
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:23,239
Speaker 1: And maybe you know what I'm saying, Like we just

926
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:24,400
Speaker 1: kind of made.

927
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:31,000
Speaker 2: Another experience, repackaged yeah and started pushing it out there.

928
00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:33,160
Speaker 1: Then we did the in the Streets.

929
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:37,560
Speaker 2: Part two and she by then we were working on

930
00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:41,440
Speaker 2: like twenty fos and Rubber Band Man and Be Easy.

931
00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:49,080
Speaker 2: And when we started working twenty folds, paying to get

932
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:53,680
Speaker 2: radio promotion for ourself, and you know, we were at

933
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 2: this time, I think we probably were getting back fifteen

934
00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:58,480
Speaker 2: twenty thousand the show.

935
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 1: So then La called and I was like, hey, man,

00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,719
Speaker 1: things are going well. It might be time to work

937
00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 1: on this second album.

938
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 2: And I was apprehensive, to say the least, because I

939
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:18,479
Speaker 2: hadn't heard from my partner La in quite some time

940
00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:24,279
Speaker 2: at that moment, so I did not I just didn't

941
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 2: want to be put in the same position again. So

942
00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:30,560
Speaker 2: I felt like for me to get my financial independence,

943
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,879
Speaker 2: that was the only way that I could, in good

944
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:39,840
Speaker 2: conscience find myself remain in this situation, which is what

945
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 2: I told him. But when it came out, it just say, man,

946
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:45,320
Speaker 2: I tell you what, give me two million man, or

947
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:46,120
Speaker 2: you could just let me.

00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:54,040
Speaker 1: Those are the actual words. That's exactly what I see.

949
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:55,560
Speaker 1: I said it like that.

950
00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,000

00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:01,120

00:58:24,720 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 2: put you put a you put a spotlight on it. Yeah,

1043
00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:32,440
Speaker 2: well see, I think what it was, bro is I

1044
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 2: had just gotten the opportunity to get that deep into

1045
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:42,080
Speaker 2: the rollout, because you know, the rollout goes as far

1046
00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:47,280
Speaker 2: as the success success will allow it. So when I

1047
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:49,520
Speaker 2: get to the Ladies's like, okay, I dropped one that

1048
00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:52,800
Speaker 2: did well, dropped the second one that did well. Now

1049
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:56,360
Speaker 2: I can you know I can get into something a

1050
00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:57,480
Speaker 2: little more diverse.

1051
00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:01,080
Speaker 3: Was the feature on sold your kind of like your

1052
00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 3: first foray into the R and B space.

1053
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:07,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, no, I mean maybe it was my

1054
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 2: biggest I think, you know, I had done stuff, but

1055
00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:13,919
Speaker 2: you know, nothing of that magnitude.

1056
00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:14,400
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1057
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:17,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, because to me, that's when I'm like, okay, I

1058
00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:17,960
Speaker 3: can recall.

1059
00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:18,280
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1060
00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:21,480

00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:23,040
Speaker 3: like and live your life.

1062
00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:28,640

1064
00:59:35,040 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 2: like Soldier probably led led the way.

1065
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:41,120

00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:45,560
Speaker 2: Like My Love Yeah yeah, yeah, But I mean, man,

1067
00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:49,280

01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:26,360
Speaker 2: Was you know, was was definitely the young suitanst of

1136
01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:27,000
Speaker 2: the moment.

1137
01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:30,040
Speaker 1: Now for me, I was like, you know, like a

1138
01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:34,479
Speaker 1: real outlaw at the time. I was like just.

1139
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:39,800
Speaker 2: Getting out of prison and ship and having you know,

1140
01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:41,720
Speaker 2: like an ankle monitor and ship on.

1144
01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:59,840
Speaker 2: into place, Like that's that's probably one of my more

1145
01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:03,720
Speaker 2: effortless roles and like it just allowed.

1146
01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:07,240
Speaker 1: Me, you know, to just be a villain.

1147
01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:10,960
Speaker 2: But and when people now, let's get into the villain part,

1148
01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:14,880
Speaker 2: because when people talk about this role and talk about

1149
01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:16,720
Speaker 2: how treacherous my.

1150
01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:21,080

1151
01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:29,880
Speaker 1: Was he wrong? Was he was he honest? Yes? In

1152
01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:35,640
Speaker 1: his approach to getting what he felt like he deserves.

01:13:55,920 --> 01:13:57,920
Speaker 1: telling you, that's the Nigga special.

1291
01:13:58,400 --> 01:14:00,880
Speaker 2: Usually the records I don't want to do, you know

1292
01:14:00,920 --> 01:14:03,559
Speaker 2: what I'm saying, those are the ones that I kind

1293
01:14:03,600 --> 01:14:08,719
Speaker 2: of I probably put more into because like it's actual effort.

1294
01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:12,400
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, yeah, yeah, yeah, why kill

1295
01:14:12,479 --> 01:14:12,760
Speaker 1: the king?

1296
01:14:13,120 --> 01:14:17,200
Speaker 2: Well, well, in my first of all, in my in

1297
01:14:17,320 --> 01:14:25,080
Speaker 2: my research, I have found that by large majority, most

1298
01:14:25,240 --> 01:14:28,200
Speaker 2: kings historically have.

1299
01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:36,360
Speaker 1: Fallen to the sword by some means or another.

1300
01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:42,920
Speaker 2: Me myself personally, I feel like, you know, if that's

1301
01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:47,679
Speaker 2: gonna happen, it may as well come at the hands

1302
01:14:48,240 --> 01:14:49,040
Speaker 2: of the man.

1303
01:14:48,960 --> 01:14:52,759
Speaker 1: That created the king, which is me. Hmm.

1304
01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:57,080
Speaker 2: Now, because I mean if you look at Caesar and

1305
01:14:57,240 --> 01:14:59,120
Speaker 2: how he you know what I'm saying, You look at

1306
01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:00,679
Speaker 2: I don't the kings.

1307
01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:01,280
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

1308
01:15:01,400 --> 01:15:06,880
Speaker 2: Just look, just go back historically, man, just by large majority,

1309
01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:11,960
Speaker 2: the kings they fall. Usually the people either turn on them,

1310
01:15:12,840 --> 01:15:16,120
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, they get a double cross

1311
01:15:16,240 --> 01:15:21,200
Speaker 2: by by the right hand, uh, you know, the woman

1312
01:15:21,320 --> 01:15:23,360
Speaker 2: poison them, something like that, you know what I mean,

1313
01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:29,640
Speaker 2: something always happens to the king at the end of rulership.

1314
01:15:30,360 --> 01:15:35,160
Speaker 2: So just by way of mythology, you know, me seeing

1315
01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:40,439
Speaker 2: how those matters work themselves at that led to the narrative.

1316
01:15:41,120 --> 01:15:50,519
Speaker 1: Now me personally, I've been on an evolution and growing in.

1317
01:15:50,600 --> 01:15:54,679
Speaker 2: A search for peace as I get you know, older,

1318
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:58,880
Speaker 2: I'm just trying to find that place in life where

1319
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:02,240
Speaker 2: I'm a well, I'm I'm straight, I'm chilling.

1320
01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:05,320
Speaker 1: I ain't bothering nobody. Ain't nobody bothering me.

1321
01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:11,840
Speaker 2: I'm I'm just just content with where I am, who

1322
01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:13,880
Speaker 2: I am, and what's going on around me.

1323
01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:18,040
Speaker 1: I found that to find.

1324
01:16:19,200 --> 01:16:22,840
Speaker 2: That level of peace, you have to starve the ego.

1325
01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:28,960
Speaker 2: And so to me, killing the king is me starving

1326
01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:33,479
Speaker 2: the ego. It's killing the ego. See King King of

1327
01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:38,799
Speaker 2: the South is just that bravado. Fuck everybody else, It's all.

1328
01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:41,599
Speaker 1: About me too. You are going exactly where I need

1329
01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:43,519
Speaker 1: you to energy. Yeah, that's uh.

1330
01:16:44,600 --> 01:16:48,360
Speaker 2: And and I find that, you know, when you present

1331
01:16:48,439 --> 01:16:54,840
Speaker 2: yourself in such a way, usually that ego or that persona.

1332
01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:59,759
Speaker 1: More times than not, it walks into the room before

1333
01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:00,240
Speaker 1: you you do.

1334
01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:04,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, so by the time you get there, you already

1335
01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:08,360
Speaker 2: you're being met with the introduction of the ego, of

1336
01:17:08,400 --> 01:17:12,360
Speaker 2: people's response to the introduction of the ego. So you

1337
01:17:12,439 --> 01:17:14,439
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, I just kind of want to

1338
01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:18,560
Speaker 2: simplify my life in such a way where you know,

1339
01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:22,639
Speaker 2: that doesn't become as problematic as it has been.

1340
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:26,920
Speaker 1: So it's not retirement, yes, it is retirement as well. Okay,

1341
01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:32,000
Speaker 1: all right, okay, because that's I think it reads, is such. Yeah,

1342
01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:34,320
Speaker 1: so you you like this is it? Yeah?

1343
01:17:34,600 --> 01:17:37,400
Speaker 8: I mean when I was actually gonna let them know,

1344
01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:42,439
Speaker 8: then absolutely, okay, simply because like when I was a kid,

1345
01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 8: you you just you know, spoke to it a minute ago,

1346
01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:47,160
Speaker 8: when I was a kid riding my bike on the

1347
01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:49,200
Speaker 8: bank head and I had aspirations of doing this.

1348
01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:56,880
Speaker 2: Everything that I wanted to do, I've done, yeah, for real,

1349
01:17:57,880 --> 01:18:00,320
Speaker 2: So it ain't really nothing else for me to be like,

1350
01:18:01,400 --> 01:18:03,519
Speaker 2: you know, what the fuck else is there for me

1351
01:18:04,040 --> 01:18:04,960
Speaker 2: on this side of things.

1352
01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:06,559
Speaker 1: On this side of things now.

1353
01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:11,519
Speaker 2: I'm still directing, producing, writing, and and and you know,

1354
01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:17,120
Speaker 2: doing movies. I'm still introducing talent to the world. I'm

1355
01:18:17,200 --> 01:18:20,400
Speaker 2: still have real estate developments that I'm working on. I

1356
01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:24,800
Speaker 2: still have other areas of business and entertainment getting back

1357
01:18:24,880 --> 01:18:26,120
Speaker 2: to doing comedy.

1358
01:18:26,200 --> 01:18:26,360
Speaker 3: You know.

1359
01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:31,759
Speaker 2: I still have other areas of business, entertainment and personal growth.

1360
01:18:32,080 --> 01:18:34,519
Speaker 2: Things that I could work on within myself to present

1361
01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:38,000
Speaker 2: and talent to present to the world. I don't have

1362
01:18:38,240 --> 01:18:44,200
Speaker 2: to continue to just lean on this, right, I mean, no,

1363
01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:45,920
Speaker 2: I completely understand that.

1364
01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:57,320
Speaker 3: But before you retire, let's let's let's really talk about

1365
01:18:57,400 --> 01:19:01,400
Speaker 3: let them know though, right, because it was so unexpected.

1366
01:19:01,960 --> 01:19:04,599
Speaker 1: Mm hmmm. I mean I think to the public, maybe

1367
01:19:04,640 --> 01:19:06,800
Speaker 1: not to yourself, maybe not to your inner circle, but

1368
01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:10,880
Speaker 1: to the public, it was like, amen, you know what

1369
01:19:11,160 --> 01:19:14,679
Speaker 1: the fuck it was? First listen, first half of listen.

1370

Speaker 1: I appreciate it. It's a you know, you know this.

Speaker 3: We are fans of the music and we do music.

1372
01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:21,800
Speaker 3: But it's when something comes on and you driving and

1373
01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:22,560

1450
01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:26,840

1451
01:23:27,640 --> 01:23:30,960
Speaker 2: like all the kids you know, have their own reputations

1452
01:23:31,400 --> 01:23:36,200
Speaker 2: when they started young. But like like Buddy Red Messiah,

1453
01:23:36,640 --> 01:23:38,200
Speaker 2: he never got in no trouble.

1454
01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:41,919
Speaker 1: He was always the kid. It was like just to himself,

1455
01:23:42,439 --> 01:23:45,000
Speaker 1: played the video game, read his books.

1456
01:23:45,560 --> 01:23:47,759

1457
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:50,160
Speaker 2: always had good grades everything.

1458
01:23:50,920 --> 01:23:55,479
Speaker 1: Meek I never knew if she done anything wrong.

1459
01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:57,600
Speaker 2: I don't even know she whatever it was, she was

1460
01:23:57,680 --> 01:24:00,320
Speaker 2: so smooth and cool whatever she would do when she

1461
01:24:00,439 --> 01:24:06,000
Speaker 2: got away. So the kids that got in trouble the

1462
01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:11,040
Speaker 2: most was King and the money, and they always got

1463
01:24:11,160 --> 01:24:12,800
Speaker 2: in trouble together.

1464
01:24:13,240 --> 01:24:13,960
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

1465
01:24:14,080 --> 01:24:19,559
Speaker 2: They were all women that were But see then something happened,

1466
01:24:20,439 --> 01:24:24,000
Speaker 2: you know, right around when Demione got like in lem

1467
01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:27,559
Speaker 2: grade or something like that, and he just got got

01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:34,560
Speaker 1: The bullshit no more. And you know, and he just

1470
01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:39,240
Speaker 1: left King like in the life by you know what

1471
01:24:39,360 --> 01:24:45,559
Speaker 1: I'm saying to his device, you know. And and if

1472
01:24:46,120 --> 01:24:49,160

01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:49,479
Speaker 1: to us?
