<v Speaker 2>the King of the South. I will say that was

0:01:50.160 --> 0:01:53.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, that was a bold statement to be made

0:01:54.440 --> 0:02:00.000
<v Speaker 2>for someone introducing him first his first album, introducing himself

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:04.440
<v Speaker 2>off to the industry. Uh, that had been you know,

0:02:04.800 --> 0:02:11.240
<v Speaker 2>I guess some some some silent acknowledgments of who the

0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:14.360
<v Speaker 2>King of the South or Kings of the South you know,

0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:18.679
<v Speaker 2>should have been, which you know, which are agreed upon

0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:24.000
<v Speaker 2>by myself even you know. But but much to the

0:02:24.120 --> 0:02:28.000
<v Speaker 2>dismay of others who may disagree with my statement, I

0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:32.400
<v Speaker 2>spoke to those people before I presented myself.

0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:32.520
<v Speaker 1>As the king.

0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:36.800
<v Speaker 2>Really I got, yeah, I got the blessings of the

0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:41.360
<v Speaker 2>people who were honored with the silent acknowledgments before I

0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:45.280
<v Speaker 2>even introduced myself to the to the to the industry

0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:45.840
<v Speaker 2>as King.

0:02:45.760 --> 0:02:46.240
<v Speaker 1>Of the South.

0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:50.760
<v Speaker 2>Scarface Outcast, Goodie Moud eight Ball, m J g U

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:55.840
<v Speaker 2>g K spoke to all before I introduced myself to.

0:02:55.800 --> 0:03:01.160
<v Speaker 1>The world, And why was that important to you? Respect? Respect?

0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:04.000
<v Speaker 1>How much consideration?

0:03:04.600 --> 0:03:08.000
<v Speaker 2>I too agree, you know that, you know, prior to me,

0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:11.400
<v Speaker 2>that's you know, that's that's who I would have considered it,

0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 2>who I considered to be, you know, the Kings of

0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:17.520
<v Speaker 2>the South. It was my time and I was, I was,

0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:21.000
<v Speaker 2>I was, I was claiming it. So I think that's

0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:22.720
<v Speaker 2>you know what I'm saying that That's what it was

0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:25.519
<v Speaker 2>about for me. But I I never wanted it to

0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:29.840
<v Speaker 2>ever be considered or or or thought or believe that

0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:35.160
<v Speaker 2>I was trying to diminish any contributions or doors that

0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:36.280
<v Speaker 2>have been opened by them.

0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Though. Now here's the bigger question.

0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:43.080
<v Speaker 4>If the conversation wasn't favorable, were you moving ahead as

0:03:43.080 --> 0:03:44.840
<v Speaker 4>the king away?

0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:48.120
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, I ain't even think that. I didn't even

0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:49.120
<v Speaker 1>think it that far through.

0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:52.000
<v Speaker 2>I really I was really interested in hearing how they

0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:54.640
<v Speaker 2>felt about it, you know what I mean? And I

0:03:54.800 --> 0:04:00.880
<v Speaker 2>was even more humble and and felt more were empowered

0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:02.240
<v Speaker 2>by their support.

0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:04.120
<v Speaker 4>Like we like to do here, Tip, we like to

0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:07.280
<v Speaker 4>go back to the beginning. Man, let's go back to Banka.

0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:09.120
<v Speaker 4>We like to go back to the beginning, to the

0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:14.080
<v Speaker 4>inception of the thing, the very first thought idea of

0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:16.760
<v Speaker 4>this is a possibility.

0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Okay, where was that for you?

0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:21.800
<v Speaker 2>For me, yeah, that was definitely that would definitely bank Head.

0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:25.599
<v Speaker 2>That was definitely like you know, west Side Atlanta. I

0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:30.320
<v Speaker 2>probably buy seven eight years old watching my uncles and

0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:32.080
<v Speaker 2>listening to what they were listening to.

0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:38.239
<v Speaker 1>So that was a lot of LLL cool J too short.

0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:44.400
<v Speaker 2>NWA And I remember like the first thing that I

0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:49.760
<v Speaker 2>could do that was perceived to be cool by my

0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:53.680
<v Speaker 2>uncles and they homeboys. Was I used to wrap? Or

0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:57.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm bad by LLL? You know what I'm saying. Then

0:04:57.240 --> 0:05:01.240
<v Speaker 2>we all six seven years old, you know, I put

0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:03.360
<v Speaker 2>on one of their cankos and then I you know

0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:06.280
<v Speaker 2>what I'm saying. Yeah, they'll let me stay up late,

0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:07.760
<v Speaker 2>sip out their beers and ship.

0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.160
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying. And Uh.

0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Then one day in school, probably about three third third grade,

0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:19.359
<v Speaker 2>probably after I finished my work before the glass and

0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:23.120
<v Speaker 2>try and keep myself from getting in trouble, I challenged

0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:24.400
<v Speaker 2>myself to write.

0:05:24.080 --> 0:05:26.679
<v Speaker 1>My own you know what I'm saying, And I started.

0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:29.120
<v Speaker 1>It started there. You remember your first rap?

0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:33.200

<v Speaker 1>Man that.

0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:10.160
<v Speaker 2>So that happened, I think that's nineteen ninety nine. I

0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:13.240
<v Speaker 2>was eighteen years old and.

0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Let me see. Okay, so the process is all of

0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:20.080
<v Speaker 1>those Okay. So I met Kanyak.

0:13:21.000 --> 0:13:24.319
<v Speaker 2>Then I ran into my sister and her husband started

0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:26.720
<v Speaker 2>managing me. That's kind of where a lot of my

0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:31.000
<v Speaker 2>artist development stuff where I started, like you know, jogging

0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:34.599
<v Speaker 2>and reciting my raps, doing talent shows, going to studios,

0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:40.400
<v Speaker 2>doing the demo. It's like thirteen fourteen, start shopping myself around,

0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:41.840
<v Speaker 2>sending my stuff.

0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:46.480
<v Speaker 1>To New York. Nobody wanted to sign young Tip.

0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:52.240
<v Speaker 2>So then I jumped in the streets probably ride fifteen fifteen,

0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:55.720
<v Speaker 2>sixteen seventeen. So then you know, I was introduced to

0:13:55.800 --> 0:13:59.240
<v Speaker 2>the likes of Master Ptru, you know what I'm saying,

0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:02.280
<v Speaker 2>learned the whole lot about you know, selling, selling your

0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:06.480
<v Speaker 2>shit left. So then we started putting our money together,

0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:09.280
<v Speaker 2>going to the studio. We'll trap all through the week

0:14:09.440 --> 0:14:12.480
<v Speaker 2>and take Sundays off, go to the studio on Sundays

0:14:12.480 --> 0:14:16.040
<v Speaker 2>and we'll record where we were considering a psc album

0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:18.320
<v Speaker 2>and we were going to get it pressed up by

0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:21.680
<v Speaker 2>ourselves and you know, sell him out the truck. Now,

0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:24.240

0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:51.080
<v Speaker 2>You know that that that took a while to formulate.

0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:57.080
<v Speaker 2>In the meantime, me and toot he he was determined

0:19:57.880 --> 0:20:00.399
<v Speaker 2>to keep me from trapping, like he on it to

0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:03.639
<v Speaker 2>get me out the street, keep me trapping two was

0:20:03.720 --> 0:20:07.919
<v Speaker 2>into a plethora of things. He had a gang of

0:20:07.960 --> 0:20:11.320
<v Speaker 2>shit going on. He was so he would, you know,

0:20:11.400 --> 0:20:14.280
<v Speaker 2>before they called the busting cars and doing it, he

0:20:14.680 --> 0:20:16.480
<v Speaker 2>was doing shit like that waiting for them. He'll go

0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:19.960
<v Speaker 2>get a stack of papers with some account numbers on

0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:23.359
<v Speaker 2>them and shit, and he'll take them account numbers. They'll

0:20:23.359 --> 0:20:28.359
<v Speaker 2>be landscaping companies, plumbing companies and all that shit. He'll

0:20:28.400 --> 0:20:31.920
<v Speaker 2>take that shit into home depot, fill up a whole

0:20:31.960 --> 0:20:34.800
<v Speaker 2>bunch of shit on home depot and give them this

0:20:34.960 --> 0:20:38.760
<v Speaker 2>account number right here, and he'll got them. Like if

0:20:38.760 --> 0:20:41.760
<v Speaker 2>you had a house you working on and you gave

0:20:41.880 --> 0:20:44.120
<v Speaker 2>him a list of shit you needed, he had to

0:20:44.160 --> 0:20:46.960
<v Speaker 2>get all that shit by twenty thousand dollars worth of shit,

0:20:47.080 --> 0:20:49.240
<v Speaker 2>bring it outside, roll it right after you, and get

<v Speaker 2>ten thousand dollars for you, and gone by the dinning.

0:20:52.280 --> 0:20:54.320
<v Speaker 2>And so he's he started showing me how to do

0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:58.120
<v Speaker 2>shit like that. And then he also had connections where

0:20:58.160 --> 0:21:01.639
<v Speaker 2>he had partners who had you know, I guess they

0:21:01.720 --> 0:21:02.760
<v Speaker 2>drove trucks or whatever.

0:21:02.840 --> 0:21:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Sometime man, you know, one of the.

0:21:04.960 --> 0:21:08.040
<v Speaker 2>Truck containers just came up missing, just happened to have

0:21:08.600 --> 0:21:12.760
<v Speaker 2>truckload the gap public. You know, all that type ship

0:21:13.119 --> 0:21:15.240
<v Speaker 2>and then he'll have a house full of the ship

0:21:15.320 --> 0:21:16.879
<v Speaker 2>that now we got to see her, you know.

0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:20.200
<v Speaker 1>So he got me into other ship outside.

0:21:19.600 --> 0:21:23.000
<v Speaker 2>Of just you know the dope gatelio.

0:21:23.119 --> 0:21:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:21:23.680 --> 0:21:28.639
<v Speaker 2>So and you know, another big thing with him was like,

0:21:28.680 --> 0:21:31.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, flying below the radars, like like you said,

0:21:31.760 --> 0:21:33.800

<v Speaker 1>He walks in.

0:24:37.680 --> 0:24:39.879
<v Speaker 2>I guess Tump had called to said he wanted to

0:24:39.920 --> 0:24:43.399
<v Speaker 2>introduce us to someone. So on a Friday night, after

0:24:43.440 --> 0:24:47.680
<v Speaker 2>we finished but he finished cutting, I finished hushling, and

0:24:47.720 --> 0:24:49.719
<v Speaker 2>we had us. Uh we used to get like a

0:24:49.760 --> 0:24:52.919
<v Speaker 2>twelve pack of coronas and you know, watch the game

0:24:53.200 --> 0:24:56.080
<v Speaker 2>just y, you know what I'm saying. After after we

0:24:56.080 --> 0:25:00.480
<v Speaker 2>shut the bubbleshuf down, so Tump comes in and introduces

0:25:00.600 --> 0:25:04.679
<v Speaker 2>us to Jason Jeter, and Tup says, yeah, so this

0:25:04.760 --> 0:25:06.160
<v Speaker 2>is this is my my partner.

0:25:06.280 --> 0:25:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Jay. I met him. He's uh, you know, uh an

0:25:10.080 --> 0:25:11.600
<v Speaker 1>upcoming music executive.

0:25:11.800 --> 0:25:15.480
<v Speaker 2>He got he got he got great ideas and you know, uh,

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:19.159
<v Speaker 2>just a phenomenal approach to the business. And so we

0:25:19.280 --> 0:25:23.639
<v Speaker 2>sat in there drinking, talking, smoking joint you know, just talking,

0:25:23.680 --> 0:25:27.560
<v Speaker 2>and then probably about I don't know, maybe an hour

0:25:27.600 --> 0:25:31.399
<v Speaker 2>and a half into the conversation, we probably had to

0:25:31.480 --> 0:25:33.960
<v Speaker 2>finish the twilve pack. Going back to the liquor store

0:25:34.440 --> 0:25:37.840
<v Speaker 2>and uh and Jay look up, look around, say so

0:25:38.080 --> 0:25:43.680
<v Speaker 2>where's the rapper and I'm like, Nigga, I just passed

0:25:43.720 --> 0:25:47.359
<v Speaker 2>you the joint three times. I passed you the joint

0:25:47.400 --> 0:25:50.480
<v Speaker 2>three times and popped show and pop judwn Corona.

<v Speaker 1>I was unassuming, you know what I mean.

0:25:59.520 --> 0:26:03.000
<v Speaker 2>And and so then I guess the conversation changed. So

0:26:03.119 --> 0:26:05.359
<v Speaker 2>at that point, by the time we left there, it

0:26:05.400 --> 0:26:10.480
<v Speaker 2>was the four of us, Me, Tunked, Tooted, and J.

0:26:11.640 --> 0:26:14.080
<v Speaker 2>And so that's when Jay, actually, I mean I think

0:26:14.119 --> 0:26:16.640
<v Speaker 2>that after after J came on, that's when we really

0:26:16.680 --> 0:26:22.280
<v Speaker 2>started like going to the studio and and and recording.

0:26:23.200 --> 0:26:23.320
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:26:23.560 --> 0:26:29.439
<v Speaker 1>We got up about three four songs, and some happened.

0:26:29.480 --> 0:26:31.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I found out I was having I found out

0:26:31.640 --> 0:26:34.280
<v Speaker 2>I was my son's mom.

0:26:34.400 --> 0:26:35.920
<v Speaker 1>She came and told me she was pregnant.

0:26:37.119 --> 0:26:40.280
<v Speaker 2>So that that that kind of a little different file

0:26:40.359 --> 0:26:44.480
<v Speaker 2>up under me. So I jumped back into the trap

0:26:44.560 --> 0:26:47.760
<v Speaker 2>and started, you know, I started trapping again. I figured

0:26:47.800 --> 0:26:50.320
<v Speaker 2>I had eight nine months to stack me up about

0:26:50.359 --> 0:26:53.719

<v Speaker 2>you know, I'm I'm real tenacious in anything I do.

0:27:22.560 --> 0:27:26.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm either all the way in or all the way out.

0:27:26.920 --> 0:27:29.119
<v Speaker 2>So it was times where they wouldn't even see me

<v Speaker 1>And uh they had somewhat of an intervention.

0:27:38.280 --> 0:27:41.840
<v Speaker 2>They called me over the tooth house and uh, I

0:27:41.920 --> 0:27:45.119

0:29:50.840 --> 0:29:54.600
<v Speaker 3>They might have seen you right there over there like that?

<v Speaker 5>Ship that ship he said no, he said, you gotta

0:39:26.760 --> 0:39:30.560
<v Speaker 5>get you a law and then to cap your jail.

0:39:33.239 --> 0:39:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Because when my Niggs brought me to trouble, I signed

0:39:38.920 --> 0:39:49.279
<v Speaker 1>man on the ship this place to initial and I mean, look,

0:39:50.080 --> 0:39:52.400
<v Speaker 1>it took it took about two weeks to find a lawyer.

0:39:53.080 --> 0:39:55.840
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying. He can't find the studio

0:39:56.840 --> 0:39:57.280
<v Speaker 1>the lawyer.

0:39:57.360 --> 0:40:07.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, going, oh shit, yeah sir. Uh So, so

0:40:07.640 --> 0:40:09.879
<v Speaker 2>you know it was probably you know, we probably had

0:40:09.880 --> 0:40:15.160
<v Speaker 2>about another ninety days in between that experience too. You

0:40:15.200 --> 0:40:18.359
<v Speaker 2>know when I actually started working, did it feel real

0:40:18.400 --> 0:40:18.840
<v Speaker 2>for you?

0:40:18.960 --> 0:40:21.600
<v Speaker 1>At times? It did? You know what I mean? You

0:40:21.640 --> 0:40:24.240
<v Speaker 1>know there were times where it then at times it didn't.

0:40:24.440 --> 0:40:27.920
<v Speaker 2>You know, because after I after I left the studio, okay,

0:40:28.040 --> 0:40:31.120
<v Speaker 2>so after I started working and ship, I still didn't

0:40:31.120 --> 0:40:34.000
<v Speaker 2>have no signing bonus or nothing yet I had signed

0:40:34.040 --> 0:40:35.480
<v Speaker 2>and you know what I'm saying, you got a process

0:40:35.560 --> 0:40:37.600
<v Speaker 2>and still waiting on your check and ship like that,

0:40:37.920 --> 0:40:40.400
<v Speaker 2>so I'm still going back to my mama house, you

0:40:40.400 --> 0:40:42.920
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying, which is on bankhead.

0:40:43.560 --> 0:40:45.640
<v Speaker 1>And so it felt real at.

0:40:45.560 --> 0:40:50.080
<v Speaker 2>Times when I'm in the industry, the mixers and meeting people,

0:40:50.239 --> 0:40:53.000
<v Speaker 2>and then I'm going back, you know, back to the

0:40:53.560 --> 0:40:54.759
<v Speaker 2>place I was selling dope out of.

0:40:55.320 --> 0:40:56.359
<v Speaker 1>So it felt real, but.

0:40:56.320 --> 0:40:58.840
<v Speaker 2>Then it didn't when I got my when I finally

0:40:58.920 --> 0:41:01.279
<v Speaker 2>got my signing bonus. You know, I think that when

0:41:01.320 --> 0:41:05.000

0:48:21.400 --> 0:48:21.640
<v Speaker 2>you know.

0:48:22.160 --> 0:48:26.760
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, so one time to for real the fortune teller.

0:48:26.960 --> 0:48:29.840
<v Speaker 1>So you weren't so surprised, No, I was very surprised.

0:48:30.920 --> 0:48:39.080
<v Speaker 1>You're like that no music, that's about it. You don't

0:48:39.080 --> 0:48:40.120
<v Speaker 1>know how I feeling.

0:48:41.200 --> 0:48:43.759
<v Speaker 3>Told me that it's the actual nigga who did the

0:48:43.800 --> 0:48:47.200
<v Speaker 3>record too, I'm like, did you not give me your best?

0:48:48.520 --> 0:48:51.600
<v Speaker 2>One thing I never had a doubt about was the

0:48:51.719 --> 0:48:53.040
<v Speaker 2>quality of the music.

0:48:53.480 --> 0:48:54.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, never I played it.

0:48:54.920 --> 0:48:58.920
<v Speaker 2>I was very confident that whoever listened to it would

0:48:58.960 --> 0:49:04.080
<v Speaker 2>see the separation between it and anything else that was

0:49:04.080 --> 0:49:07.319
<v Speaker 2>coming out at the time. It was just it was

0:49:07.400 --> 0:49:10.319
<v Speaker 2>just a task to get motherfuckers to hear it.

0:49:11.920 --> 0:49:15.359
<v Speaker 1>Then we got twenty fours, Be easy, rubber band man,

0:49:15.400 --> 0:49:19.160
<v Speaker 1>Let's get away. Yeah you went crazy. Yeah, those things happen.

0:49:19.800 --> 0:49:22.640
<v Speaker 1>So it's a different deal too though at this point. Yeah, no,

0:49:22.719 --> 0:49:24.920
<v Speaker 1>well not exactly.

0:49:25.040 --> 0:49:29.799
<v Speaker 2>So after the first album dropped and didn't perform the

0:49:29.840 --> 0:49:34.360
<v Speaker 2>way I expected, and I didn't have an office to

0:49:34.520 --> 0:49:38.800
<v Speaker 2>necessarily go to to kind of push things along.

0:49:39.640 --> 0:49:42.920
<v Speaker 1>I just had to take matters, or we had to take.

0:49:42.760 --> 0:49:49.640
<v Speaker 2>Matters in time on our own hands. I was fortunate

0:49:49.760 --> 0:49:54.600
<v Speaker 2>enough to be shown where the storage unit for all

0:49:54.680 --> 0:49:58.279
<v Speaker 2>of the promo product it is for my stuff, all

0:49:58.320 --> 0:50:02.680
<v Speaker 2>of those promotional only CD boxes and the snipes, the posters,

0:50:02.719 --> 0:50:05.480
<v Speaker 2>the stickers and all that stuff. So we got all

0:50:05.560 --> 0:50:10.520
<v Speaker 2>that stuff, man, and started using it ourself and started

0:50:10.640 --> 0:50:16.880
<v Speaker 2>driving to just areas a gas tank worth you know,

0:50:17.160 --> 0:50:23.040
<v Speaker 2>worth a time can get us to like Alabama, South Carolina, Pausa, Tennessee,

0:50:23.360 --> 0:50:26.440
<v Speaker 2>Pasa Florida, you know.

0:50:26.800 --> 0:50:30.720
<v Speaker 1>And and we just started making.

0:50:30.400 --> 0:50:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Our own relationships with DJs, program directors, music directors and

0:50:36.480 --> 0:50:42.399
<v Speaker 2>and and and started to hand the hand word of mouth. Yeah,

0:50:42.440 --> 0:50:45.600
<v Speaker 2>you became team yeah, and now how we you know

0:50:45.640 --> 0:50:48.520
<v Speaker 2>what I'm saying. Then, and then when we ran out

0:50:48.520 --> 0:50:54.400
<v Speaker 2>of those items, then we we we started doing mixtapes.

0:50:54.440 --> 0:50:58.640
<v Speaker 2>We had met DJ Drama who uh he said he

0:50:58.680 --> 0:51:02.560
<v Speaker 2>was working on this thing as tape series called Gangster Grills,

0:51:02.840 --> 0:51:06.480
<v Speaker 2>and so he asked me to do a freestyle for

0:51:07.719 --> 0:51:12.000
<v Speaker 2>something else. But then the first Gangster Grills was t

0:51:12.160 --> 0:51:15.920
<v Speaker 2>I and PSC in the Streets and that was kind

0:51:16.000 --> 0:51:19.439
<v Speaker 2>of like a couple songs off of I'm Serious, then

0:51:19.560 --> 0:51:21.480
<v Speaker 2>some PSC songs.

0:51:21.440 --> 0:51:23.239
<v Speaker 1>And maybe you know what I'm saying, Like we just

0:51:23.320 --> 0:51:24.400
<v Speaker 1>kind of made.

0:51:24.440 --> 0:51:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Another experience, repackaged yeah and started pushing it out there.

0:51:31.239 --> 0:51:33.160
<v Speaker 1>Then we did the in the Streets.

0:51:32.760 --> 0:51:37.560
<v Speaker 2>Part two and she by then we were working on

0:51:37.719 --> 0:51:41.440
<v Speaker 2>like twenty fos and Rubber Band Man and Be Easy.

0:51:44.120 --> 0:51:49.080
<v Speaker 2>And when we started working twenty folds, paying to get

0:51:49.200 --> 0:51:53.680
<v Speaker 2>radio promotion for ourself, and you know, we were at

0:51:53.680 --> 0:51:57.120
<v Speaker 2>this time, I think we probably were getting back fifteen

0:51:57.239 --> 0:51:58.480
<v Speaker 2>twenty thousand the show.

0:52:00.160 --> 0:52:03.000
<v Speaker 1>So then La called and I was like, hey, man,

0:52:03.440 --> 0:52:05.719
<v Speaker 1>things are going well. It might be time to work

0:52:05.760 --> 0:52:06.680
<v Speaker 1>on this second album.

0:52:07.440 --> 0:52:14.520
<v Speaker 2>And I was apprehensive, to say the least, because I

0:52:14.520 --> 0:52:18.479
<v Speaker 2>hadn't heard from my partner La in quite some time

0:52:19.120 --> 0:52:24.279
<v Speaker 2>at that moment, so I did not I just didn't

0:52:24.280 --> 0:52:26.560
<v Speaker 2>want to be put in the same position again. So

0:52:26.600 --> 0:52:30.560
<v Speaker 2>I felt like for me to get my financial independence,

0:52:31.480 --> 0:52:34.879
<v Speaker 2>that was the only way that I could, in good

0:52:34.960 --> 0:52:39.840
<v Speaker 2>conscience find myself remain in this situation, which is what

0:52:39.880 --> 0:52:43.560
<v Speaker 2>I told him. But when it came out, it just say, man,

0:52:43.560 --> 0:52:45.320
<v Speaker 2>I tell you what, give me two million man, or

0:52:45.360 --> 0:52:46.120
<v Speaker 2>you could just let me.

0:52:51.640 --> 0:52:54.040
<v Speaker 1>Those are the actual words. That's exactly what I see.

0:52:54.600 --> 0:52:55.560
<v Speaker 1>I said it like that.

0:52:57.200 --> 0:53:00.000
<v Speaker 2>The rest I heard I heard the read these story

0:53:00.400 --> 0:53:01.120
<v Speaker 2>about iced tea.

0:53:01.200 --> 0:53:05.120
<v Speaker 1>He walked in with the grenade there. Do you need

0:53:05.160 --> 0:53:07.319
<v Speaker 1>to pull the pin at the grenade to see if

0:53:07.320 --> 0:53:08.479
<v Speaker 1>they work? You know what I'm saying.

0:53:08.520 --> 0:53:11.520
<v Speaker 2>I heard and read all these stories you know by

0:53:12.120 --> 0:53:14.520
<v Speaker 2>master p when he walked in did his deal, and

0:53:14.960 --> 0:53:16.360
<v Speaker 2>so I walked in with that energy.

0:53:16.400 --> 0:53:19.080
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying. What was the response he said, Well,

0:53:19.120 --> 0:53:20.359
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what he said, but let me let's

0:53:20.640 --> 0:53:22.600

<v Speaker 1>all and we.

1:01:51.400 --> 1:01:54.360
<v Speaker 2>Stepped outside of our comfort zones, you know what I mean.

1:01:54.880 --> 1:01:58.560
<v Speaker 2>He wanted to let us do what we were comfortable doing,

<v Speaker 2>I drove by once to talk another movie. I want

1:02:43.720 --> 1:02:46.480

<v Speaker 3>Great role, Like how is it shooting something like that?

1:02:58.760 --> 1:03:01.000
<v Speaker 3>Because that was you know that that's an action and.

1:03:01.520 --> 1:03:06.120
<v Speaker 2>It was a phenomenal experience. Bro, I had a tremendous

1:03:06.720 --> 1:03:09.960
<v Speaker 2>amount of fun. Man, I learned a lot, you know,

1:03:10.080 --> 1:03:10.800
<v Speaker 2>I learned.

1:03:10.520 --> 1:03:11.680
<v Speaker 1>A lot on set.

1:03:11.960 --> 1:03:16.920
<v Speaker 2>I think that working with Idris long lived, Paul Walker,

1:03:17.680 --> 1:03:19.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, working with Michael E.

1:03:19.440 --> 1:03:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Lee Chris who.

1:03:22.720 --> 1:03:26.360
<v Speaker 2>Was you know, was was definitely the young suitanst of

1:03:26.480 --> 1:03:27.000
<v Speaker 2>the moment.

1:03:27.400 --> 1:03:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Now for me, I was like, you know, like a

1:03:30.160 --> 1:03:34.479
<v Speaker 1>real outlaw at the time. I was like just.

1:03:34.400 --> 1:03:39.800
<v Speaker 2>Getting out of prison and ship and having you know,

1:03:40.040 --> 1:03:41.720
<v Speaker 2>like an ankle monitor and ship on.

1:03:42.880 --> 1:03:45.000
<v Speaker 3>Boy, you did that movie with the ankle manitor, I

1:03:45.040 --> 1:03:49.320
<v Speaker 3>did okay right? Taking take us to a Yeah.

1:03:49.600 --> 1:03:54.280
<v Speaker 2>As she bro, it just it felt like everything fell

1:03:54.360 --> 1:03:59.840
<v Speaker 2>into place, Like that's that's probably one of my more

1:04:00.120 --> 1:04:03.720
<v Speaker 2>effortless roles and like it just allowed.

1:04:03.240 --> 1:04:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Me, you know, to just be a villain.

1:04:07.920 --> 1:04:10.960
<v Speaker 2>But and when people now, let's get into the villain part,

1:04:11.480 --> 1:04:14.880
<v Speaker 2>because when people talk about this role and talk about

1:04:14.960 --> 1:04:16.720
<v Speaker 2>how treacherous my.

1:04:16.840 --> 1:04:21.080
<v Speaker 1>Character was, I merely asked what did he do wrong?

1:04:24.720 --> 1:04:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Was he wrong? Was he was he honest? Yes? In

1:04:30.480 --> 1:04:35.640
<v Speaker 1>his approach to getting what he felt like he deserves.

1:04:35.720 --> 1:04:37.600
<v Speaker 2>All right, let me just say for those that might

1:04:37.680 --> 1:04:42.560
<v Speaker 2>not remember the plot so well. This gentleman. It was

1:04:42.600 --> 1:04:45.440
<v Speaker 2>a crew, crew of bank robbers or crew of robbers

1:04:45.480 --> 1:04:49.920
<v Speaker 2>of sorts. And in this crew that he put together,

1:04:50.160 --> 1:04:55.120
<v Speaker 2>my character, my character did the crew together. In this crew,

1:04:55.640 --> 1:04:59.200
<v Speaker 2>one of the jobs went bad and one of the

1:04:59.280 --> 1:05:00.560
<v Speaker 2>guys had to go away.

1:05:00.720 --> 1:05:01.960
<v Speaker 1>That was my guy.

1:05:02.160 --> 1:05:07.240
<v Speaker 2>My guy had to go away. The money stayed, nobody

1:05:07.280 --> 1:05:11.880
<v Speaker 2>else went to jail. Crew continued on. Did they think

1:05:12.560 --> 1:05:16.320
<v Speaker 2>my guy kept his mouth shut? Everybody else was supposed

1:05:16.320 --> 1:05:26.200
<v Speaker 2>to hold my money. My girl was also supposed to. Wait,

1:05:27.240 --> 1:05:29.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm staying down, you know I'm.

1:05:34.680 --> 1:05:35.760
<v Speaker 1>While I'm away.

1:05:36.560 --> 1:05:41.440
<v Speaker 2>The crew continues on without me, no problem. One of

1:05:41.480 --> 1:05:46.080
<v Speaker 2>the members of the crew decides to take away with

1:05:46.360 --> 1:05:47.800
<v Speaker 2>my girl of pocket.

1:05:48.360 --> 1:05:50.560

1:06:52.200 --> 1:06:53.760
<v Speaker 1>spring for turn nick behavior.

<v Speaker 1>telling you, that's the Nigga special.

1:13:58.400 --> 1:14:00.880
<v Speaker 2>Usually the records I don't want to do, you know

1:14:00.920 --> 1:14:03.559
<v Speaker 2>what I'm saying, those are the ones that I kind

1:14:03.600 --> 1:14:08.719
<v Speaker 2>of I probably put more into because like it's actual effort.

1:14:09.800 --> 1:14:12.400
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying, yeah, yeah, yeah, why kill

1:14:12.479 --> 1:14:12.760
<v Speaker 1>the king?

1:14:13.120 --> 1:14:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Well, well, in my first of all, in my in

1:14:17.320 --> 1:14:25.080
<v Speaker 2>my research, I have found that by large majority, most

1:14:25.240 --> 1:14:28.200
<v Speaker 2>kings historically have.

1:14:30.120 --> 1:14:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Fallen to the sword by some means or another.

1:14:37.840 --> 1:14:42.920
<v Speaker 2>Me myself personally, I feel like, you know, if that's

1:14:43.000 --> 1:14:47.679
<v Speaker 2>gonna happen, it may as well come at the hands

1:14:48.240 --> 1:14:49.040
<v Speaker 2>of the man.

1:14:48.960 --> 1:14:52.759
<v Speaker 1>That created the king, which is me. Hmm.

1:14:53.760 --> 1:14:57.080
<v Speaker 2>Now, because I mean if you look at Caesar and

1:14:57.240 --> 1:14:59.120
<v Speaker 2>how he you know what I'm saying, You look at

1:14:59.600 --> 1:15:00.679
<v Speaker 2>I don't the kings.

1:15:00.720 --> 1:15:01.280
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying.

1:15:01.400 --> 1:15:06.880
<v Speaker 2>Just look, just go back historically, man, just by large majority,

1:15:07.439 --> 1:15:11.960
<v Speaker 2>the kings they fall. Usually the people either turn on them,

1:15:12.840 --> 1:15:16.120
<v Speaker 2>you know what I'm saying, they get a double cross

1:15:16.240 --> 1:15:21.200
<v Speaker 2>by by the right hand, uh, you know, the woman

1:15:21.320 --> 1:15:23.360
<v Speaker 2>poison them, something like that, you know what I mean,

1:15:23.560 --> 1:15:29.640
<v Speaker 2>something always happens to the king at the end of rulership.

1:15:30.360 --> 1:15:35.160
<v Speaker 2>So just by way of mythology, you know, me seeing

1:15:35.360 --> 1:15:40.439
<v Speaker 2>how those matters work themselves at that led to the narrative.

1:15:41.120 --> 1:15:50.519
<v Speaker 1>Now me personally, I've been on an evolution and growing in.

1:15:50.600 --> 1:15:54.679
<v Speaker 2>A search for peace as I get you know, older,

1:15:55.200 --> 1:15:58.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm just trying to find that place in life where

1:15:59.000 --> 1:16:02.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm a well, I'm I'm straight, I'm chilling.

1:16:02.880 --> 1:16:05.320
<v Speaker 1>I ain't bothering nobody. Ain't nobody bothering me.

1:16:06.280 --> 1:16:11.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm I'm just just content with where I am, who

1:16:11.960 --> 1:16:13.880
<v Speaker 2>I am, and what's going on around me.

1:16:15.080 --> 1:16:18.040
<v Speaker 1>I found that to find.

1:16:19.200 --> 1:16:22.840
<v Speaker 2>That level of peace, you have to starve the ego.

1:16:24.680 --> 1:16:28.960
<v Speaker 2>And so to me, killing the king is me starving

1:16:29.320 --> 1:16:33.479
<v Speaker 2>the ego. It's killing the ego. See King King of

1:16:33.560 --> 1:16:38.799
<v Speaker 2>the South is just that bravado. Fuck everybody else, It's all.

1:16:38.760 --> 1:16:41.599
<v Speaker 1>About me too. You are going exactly where I need

1:16:41.640 --> 1:16:43.519
<v Speaker 1>you to energy. Yeah, that's uh.

1:16:44.600 --> 1:16:48.360
<v Speaker 2>And and I find that, you know, when you present

1:16:48.439 --> 1:16:54.840
<v Speaker 2>yourself in such a way, usually that ego or that persona.

1:16:55.880 --> 1:16:59.759
<v Speaker 1>More times than not, it walks into the room before

1:16:59.840 --> 1:17:00.240
<v Speaker 1>you you do.

1:17:01.240 --> 1:17:04.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so by the time you get there, you already

1:17:04.520 --> 1:17:08.360
<v Speaker 2>you're being met with the introduction of the ego, of

1:17:08.400 --> 1:17:12.360
<v Speaker 2>people's response to the introduction of the ego. So you

1:17:12.439 --> 1:17:14.439
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying, I just kind of want to

1:17:14.520 --> 1:17:18.560
<v Speaker 2>simplify my life in such a way where you know,

1:17:18.880 --> 1:17:22.639
<v Speaker 2>that doesn't become as problematic as it has been.

1:17:23.520 --> 1:17:26.920
<v Speaker 1>So it's not retirement, yes, it is retirement as well. Okay,

1:17:26.960 --> 1:17:32.000
<v Speaker 1>all right, okay, because that's I think it reads, is such. Yeah,

1:17:32.360 --> 1:17:34.320
<v Speaker 1>so you you like this is it? Yeah?

1:17:34.600 --> 1:17:37.400
<v Speaker 8>I mean when I was actually gonna let them know,

1:17:37.520 --> 1:17:42.439
<v Speaker 8>then absolutely, okay, simply because like when I was a kid,

1:17:42.560 --> 1:17:45.639
<v Speaker 8>you you just you know, spoke to it a minute ago,

1:17:45.680 --> 1:17:47.160
<v Speaker 8>when I was a kid riding my bike on the

1:17:47.200 --> 1:17:49.200
<v Speaker 8>bank head and I had aspirations of doing this.

1:17:50.080 --> 1:17:56.880
<v Speaker 2>Everything that I wanted to do, I've done, yeah, for real,

1:17:57.880 --> 1:18:00.320
<v Speaker 2>So it ain't really nothing else for me to be like,

1:18:01.400 --> 1:18:03.519
<v Speaker 2>you know, what the fuck else is there for me

1:18:04.040 --> 1:18:04.960
<v Speaker 2>on this side of things.

1:18:05.080 --> 1:18:06.559
<v Speaker 1>On this side of things now.

1:18:06.400 --> 1:18:11.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm still directing, producing, writing, and and and you know,

1:18:11.800 --> 1:18:17.120
<v Speaker 2>doing movies. I'm still introducing talent to the world. I'm

1:18:17.200 --> 1:18:20.400
<v Speaker 2>still have real estate developments that I'm working on. I

1:18:20.520 --> 1:18:24.800
<v Speaker 2>still have other areas of business and entertainment getting back

1:18:24.880 --> 1:18:26.120
<v Speaker 2>to doing comedy.

1:18:26.200 --> 1:18:26.360
<v Speaker 3>You know.

1:18:26.680 --> 1:18:31.759
<v Speaker 2>I still have other areas of business, entertainment and personal growth.

1:18:32.080 --> 1:18:34.519
<v Speaker 2>Things that I could work on within myself to present

1:18:34.840 --> 1:18:38.000
<v Speaker 2>and talent to present to the world. I don't have

1:18:38.240 --> 1:18:44.200
<v Speaker 2>to continue to just lean on this, right, I mean, no,

1:18:44.439 --> 1:18:45.920
<v Speaker 2>I completely understand that.

1:18:54.120 --> 1:18:57.320
<v Speaker 3>But before you retire, let's let's let's really talk about

1:18:57.400 --> 1:19:01.400
<v Speaker 3>let them know though, right, because it was so unexpected.

1:19:01.960 --> 1:19:04.599
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmmm. I mean I think to the public, maybe

1:19:04.640 --> 1:19:06.800
<v Speaker 1>not to yourself, maybe not to your inner circle, but

1:19:07.120 --> 1:19:10.880
<v Speaker 1>to the public, it was like, amen, you know what

1:19:11.160 --> 1:19:14.679

<v Speaker 2>Well, Jay don't do music no more, man, Jay. You know,

1:21:05.000 --> 1:21:08.360
<v Speaker 2>I think j J focusing in other areas of business.

1:21:08.479 --> 1:21:09.959
<v Speaker 2>He's doing a lot in fashion.

1:21:10.640 --> 1:21:14.280
<v Speaker 1>Do you still have a coup Yeah, we still own

1:21:14.320 --> 1:21:16.400
<v Speaker 1>a coup together. Yeah yeah yeah.

1:21:16.920 --> 1:21:20.280
<v Speaker 2>But he has his own vintage Heavy, he has his

1:21:20.439 --> 1:21:22.799
<v Speaker 2>own brand that he's created.

1:21:23.880 --> 1:21:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Jay is heavy into.

1:21:27.040 --> 1:21:31.760
<v Speaker 2>That Japanese kind of you know, the international style type ship.

1:21:32.400 --> 1:21:35.360
<v Speaker 2>So he has a vintage Heavy that that he's working

1:21:35.400 --> 1:21:38.360
<v Speaker 2>on right now that is doing well. But I think

1:21:38.479 --> 1:21:40.400
<v Speaker 2>man Jay grew to a play where he couldn't be

1:21:40.479 --> 1:21:43.680
<v Speaker 2>bothered with this music ship no more. I don't think

1:21:43.760 --> 1:21:46.600
<v Speaker 2>he has the uh, he don't have a tempt the

1:21:46.720 --> 1:21:49.720
<v Speaker 2>pace that that he just don't feel like it.

1:21:50.160 --> 1:21:52.120
<v Speaker 1>All of that. He got the way I am like

1:21:52.360 --> 1:21:53.160
<v Speaker 1>way before me.

1:21:53.360 --> 1:21:56.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know what I mean. But I

1:21:56.960 --> 1:21:59.479
<v Speaker 4>mean it's it's when it comes to having the gift.

1:21:59.560 --> 1:22:03.080
<v Speaker 4>Those the ferent too, because the gift hungers a little differently.

1:22:03.880 --> 1:22:04.599

<v Speaker 1>I'm a big thing.

1:23:01.080 --> 1:23:05.080
<v Speaker 2>But King and did any balance the balance when are

1:23:05.120 --> 1:23:08.160
<v Speaker 2>y'all doing the buck? Literally once again? But ship I

1:23:08.240 --> 1:23:11.120
<v Speaker 2>fuck with and I like I always I comment, I'm like,

1:23:11.640 --> 1:23:12.160
<v Speaker 2>they need.

1:23:12.160 --> 1:23:13.639
<v Speaker 1>To do the Buddy film.

1:23:13.960 --> 1:23:24.320
<v Speaker 3>Hey, they gotta do that's Craig and Day they Mann.

1:23:21.240 --> 1:23:22.479
<v Speaker 1>I think they. But see the.

1:23:22.680 --> 1:23:26.840
<v Speaker 2>Funny thing about King get Dominic when they were young, right,

1:23:27.640 --> 1:23:30.960
<v Speaker 2>like all the kids you know, have their own reputations

1:23:31.400 --> 1:23:36.200
<v Speaker 2>when they started young. But like like Buddy Red Messiah,

1:23:36.640 --> 1:23:38.200
<v Speaker 2>he never got in no trouble.

1:23:38.320 --> 1:23:41.919
<v Speaker 1>He was always the kid. It was like just to himself,

1:23:42.439 --> 1:23:45.000
<v Speaker 1>played the video game, read his books.

1:23:45.560 --> 1:23:47.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, never had no problems out of him in school,

1:23:48.400 --> 1:23:50.160
<v Speaker 2>always had good grades everything.

1:23:50.920 --> 1:23:55.479
<v Speaker 1>Meek I never knew if she done anything wrong.

1:23:55.600 --> 1:23:57.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know she whatever it was, she was

1:23:57.680 --> 1:24:00.320
<v Speaker 2>so smooth and cool whatever she would do when she

1:24:00.439 --> 1:24:06.000
<v Speaker 2>got away. So the kids that got in trouble the

1:24:06.200 --> 1:24:11.040
<v Speaker 2>most was King and the money, and they always got

1:24:11.160 --> 1:24:12.800
<v Speaker 2>in trouble together.

1:24:13.240 --> 1:24:13.960
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying.

1:24:14.080 --> 1:24:19.559
<v Speaker 2>They were all women that were But see then something happened,

1:24:20.439 --> 1:24:24.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, right around when Demione got like in lem

1:24:24.200 --> 1:24:27.559
<v Speaker 2>grade or something like that, and he just got got

1:24:27.800 --> 1:24:28.960
<v Speaker 2>cool and just.

1:24:30.960 --> 1:24:34.560
<v Speaker 1>The bullshit no more. And you know, and he just

1:24:34.720 --> 1:24:39.240
<v Speaker 1>left King like in the life by you know what

1:24:39.360 --> 1:24:45.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying to his device, you know. And and if

1:24:46.120 --> 1:24:49.160
<v Speaker 1>I imagine King be looking at like Nigga, what happened

1:24:49.200 --> 1:24:49.479
<v Speaker 1>to us?

1:24:54.840 --> 1:24:59.800
<v Speaker 2>You know? And yeah, I imagine you know King, you know,

1:25:00.160 --> 1:25:04.920
