Speaker 1: Watch up and welcome back to another episode and no
Speaker 1: Seillers podcast with your host. Now funk that with your
Speaker 1: low classes, Malone. This is my point. To be a
Speaker 1: real American, you have to be born here. You have
Speaker 1: to go through a fucking strenuous process. They don't just
Speaker 1: put seven Americans around you and they beat you up
Speaker 1: for ninety seconds and you're an American. So this time
Speaker 1: before we start, we're gonna say this first, no ceilings.
Speaker 1: G L my boy Peter back once again my favorite
Speaker 1: sports podcast, Hoops and Bruise the Homy t p J Pavvy.
Speaker 1: Feel me, we had to circle back on this conversation
Speaker 1: because like I got, like I don't know, probably I
Speaker 1: can hunt. I never got as much um engagement on
Speaker 1: the podcast, you know what I mean. And it was
Speaker 1: the hilarity of it. It was so like left and
Speaker 1: right and how people felt it was. It made people
Speaker 1: like super emotional and that was just something that I
Speaker 1: really wasn't I hadn't seen that, and I felt like
Speaker 1: it was a question mark Pete Knight. So I gotta
Speaker 1: ask just real quick, so of all the things we've
Speaker 1: discussed and as much as you could get wound up,
Speaker 1: man triggers were colloquialism. So that's what set off our audience.
Speaker 1: Colloquial We talked about colloquialisms that to me is crazy.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I've listened to every episode and I don't
Speaker 1: even retrew them all on Twitter. I don't put them
Speaker 1: all on Instagram, Like I've got past that of Like,
Speaker 1: you know, I get it as a promotional piece, but
Speaker 1: it was so diverse, I thought it would just cause confusion.
Speaker 1: And so one of the first things I got and
Speaker 1: I wanted to kind of just think. We didn't elaborate further.
Speaker 1: So God willing we get it done with this the
Speaker 1: sequel to the same conversation. But so the first thing
Speaker 1: I remember because it was a guy that talked like
Speaker 1: he messaged me every day to have this conversation every day,
Speaker 1: and he was like, well, why is it gangster? Why
Speaker 1: is it gangster? Gotta be negative? Like or why do
Speaker 1: you why do you have to be a criminal to
Speaker 1: be a gangster? And I'm just thinking to myself, like,
Speaker 1: because that's what the game is. I mean, do you
Speaker 1: want to argue with me? Or webster? Why do you
Speaker 1: have to fish? And And so I think I get
Speaker 1: this point He felt like urban people, right, people that
Speaker 1: come from our backgrounds couldnnect to these titles because that
Speaker 1: is the most popular thing within said culture. Right, so
Speaker 1: they like, Okay, we should have access, you know, we
Speaker 1: should have access to these titles without having to fall
Speaker 1: in line with the definition. He was like, yeah, why
Speaker 1: can't gangster be you know, me doing the right thing
Speaker 1: by the community. And I'm like, well, that will make
Speaker 1: you a community leader. That would be like me growing
Speaker 1: up a white guy in Newport and calling myself a
Speaker 1: golfer and not golfing because the community golfs. But bro,
Speaker 1: what I tell you p He was serious. He was
Speaker 1: serious as hell, and so I had a couple of
Speaker 1: thoughts and I wanted to share him, right because I
Speaker 1: think Tim kind of felt you know, the most as
Speaker 1: far as like the perspectives that he presented. Right, I
Speaker 1: get why, right, people want to redefine what being a
Speaker 1: gangster is. This ain't dude, Why can't raising your kid
Speaker 1: the gangster? And I'm like, because that's being a father.
Speaker 1: But I realize when you live your life as a square, right,
Speaker 1: minus the negative connotations, you're just a law biding citizen.
Speaker 1: So we'll stop using the term square currently and say
Speaker 1: a law bodying citizen. When you're a law bodying citizen,
Speaker 1: bro raising your kids, you getting no credit for that.
Speaker 1: That's actually like it comes with the car. It stopped,
Speaker 1: you feel me. It's like it's like bragging about power
Speaker 1: windows in two thousand and twenty two. Now when you're
Speaker 1: in the community, right and you have said, interesting, you
Speaker 1: know the niggadum, the niggam that we call the street life,
Speaker 1: whether it's independent or within the community, that's the gang, right,
Speaker 1: being a father becomes more of a challenge because you know,
Speaker 1: you you're get in trouble, more like your time is
Speaker 1: in trouble. You know, your time is jeopardy, right you
Speaker 1: you you jeopardize in your time, whether it's you know, crime, prison, jail,
Speaker 1: death or whatever. Um. So being a father carries more
Speaker 1: value within our community of this street urban life, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, because that's something special. Most of us,
Speaker 1: a lot of us didn't grow up with dad's from
Speaker 1: that background because our dads was partaken in that lifestyle.
Speaker 1: But if you were there that you like, you would
Speaker 1: get a trophy, you know what I mean, a dad
Speaker 1: from where we're like, that's like a doctor a father.
Speaker 1: So what I think I realized was bringing it down.
Speaker 1: People are like, Okay, I don't want to commit too
Speaker 1: said lifestyle that actually earns me that title, right, because
Speaker 1: I don't want to deal with the repercussions. But I
Speaker 1: still want the same credit of being a father that
Speaker 1: somebody from my community would get. And I wanted to
Speaker 1: define it as this. Now I don't get it, but
Speaker 1: I do get it again. If you're a law body citizen,
Speaker 1: being a father is just not an accomplishment. I wouldn't
Speaker 1: say it's not an accomplishment. It's not. I wouldn't say that. No,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I wouldn't. I wouldn't. I wouldn't say that
Speaker 1: because you have a lot of I wouldn't. I wouldn't.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that because you have a lot of
Speaker 1: people who are lawed by the citizen, but they still weren't.
Speaker 1: In like, the kid lives, especially in our community, is
Speaker 1: regardless of what you do. So I wouldn't say it's
Speaker 1: ou an accomplishment. It's not. Though, if you're just a
Speaker 1: local mechanic and you're doing just fine and you just
Speaker 1: don't want to go across town to see your kid, yes,
Speaker 1: but there are derogatory terms for that. That's not neutral.
Speaker 1: Now you're on the other side of zero. That's not
Speaker 1: what we're talking about. That's not That's why I said
Speaker 1: and and that's the and path. That's the point. Like,
Speaker 1: it's not an accomplishment, it's only accomplishment in our community
Speaker 1: because the lifestyle jeopardizes your time. It ain't like, you know,
Speaker 1: work eight hours, you come home, you might be in prison,
Speaker 1: you might go to jail, you might get shot, you
Speaker 1: might be in a hospital, you might die. If you're
Speaker 1: living a law abiding lifestyle, why the funk would you
Speaker 1: not be a father? Yes? What some people are so
Speaker 1: at all accomplishment, But I still think you deserve some
Speaker 1: credit for that, some credit. No, they're get no trophy,
Speaker 1: no fifth trade. See that's the thing about living right,
Speaker 1: uh uh a law abiding lifestyle. You don't get credit
Speaker 1: for being a father. It's like you don't get credit
Speaker 1: for paying your taxes. You get penalized for not exactly
Speaker 1: Like these are standard things. Again, like I said, there
Speaker 1: is a first place trophy when you get when your
Speaker 1: father in our community based off of the lifestyle you
Speaker 1: know and choices. So if you made that work, that's
Speaker 1: pretty damn special. You're a special guy, feel me to
Speaker 1: some degree. But when you're living a law abiding lifestyle,
Speaker 1: you feel me A father, a father in our community,
Speaker 1: like I said, is a doctor, is a lawyer in
Speaker 1: this community? Right, It's it's a how did you make
Speaker 1: that happen? How did you make that work? But when
Speaker 1: you live in your life, there is higher titles, like
Speaker 1: he telling me, oh, so I can't be a real
Speaker 1: nigga because I take care of my family. I'm like,
Speaker 1: what's wrong with being a real man? And why do you?
Speaker 1: Why would you want to be something that people created
Speaker 1: because they because the life they was living, it was
Speaker 1: tough to attain. Law abiding you know, law abiding titles.
Speaker 1: I feel you, and I feel you. I don't, like
Speaker 1: I said, like I told you last time, I don't
Speaker 1: necessarily I don't know. I don't personally walk around calling
Speaker 1: myself a gangster for any reason, to be honest, because
Speaker 1: I'm not a gangster. So like, I just think it's
Speaker 1: just people wanted to just be a part of something
Speaker 1: bigger than themselves. And I think that's just people in general.
Speaker 1: It's just people in general. And like I could, I
Speaker 1: could understand where he's coming from. But at the same time,
Speaker 1: it's like, why would you even want to be that,
Speaker 1: Like I've never, I've never, I've no, I'm just being honest,
Speaker 1: Like I'll come, I come like I come from a
Speaker 1: family of gangsters. It could be very easily. I could
Speaker 1: very easy to be like, yo, I'm a gang member, dad,
Speaker 1: as I could be like, yo, I'm a I'm a
Speaker 1: this something of that, I'm from this. I know. I
Speaker 1: know all the gangs in Chicago. I could easily claim
Speaker 1: one of them. And because my family is don't know,
Speaker 1: I could be like, yeah, this is who I am.
Speaker 1: But like, I never in my life wanted to be
Speaker 1: referred to as a gangster. I was trying to make
Speaker 1: some money and like get the funk out the hood.
Speaker 1: Like I personally didn't need to identify with the people
Speaker 1: that was around me in order and try to like assimilate.
Speaker 1: And I've never been in assimilation type of person. Now
Speaker 1: that might be to my detriment, but I personally don't
Speaker 1: feel it is. But a lot of people like to
Speaker 1: assimilate and be like others. I've never been that type
Speaker 1: of person. So I never in my life called myself
Speaker 1: a gangster. I never in my life called myself a thug.
Speaker 1: I make music, I wrap. I never rap about killing
Speaker 1: motherfucker's or being like a thug or selling drugs. I
Speaker 1: don't need to be cause like I'm just could be
Speaker 1: myself and that's cool with me. Like I'm perfectly secure
Speaker 1: with being myself, and a lot of people aren't secure
Speaker 1: within themselves. And that's not saying that bro is insecure
Speaker 1: or whatever, because I also understand it. Like I'll put
Speaker 1: it this way, like I grew up in a family
Speaker 1: where like where you know, you know, like you know,
Speaker 1: where my older cousins they come from a generation with
Speaker 1: them calling you gay and all kind of other crazy ship.
Speaker 1: It was like a commonplace amongst like the way everybody
Speaker 1: talked to each other, how motherfucker's this ship like that.
Speaker 1: I never personally solve value in it because I had
Speaker 1: a cousin that was gay and everybody knew he was gay,
Speaker 1: but everybody was too embarrassed to like be open and
Speaker 1: be himself because of the way that my family talked
Speaker 1: about him and other gay people. So even as a
Speaker 1: young kid, I could have made them we don't listen,
Speaker 1: let me finish. Even as a young kid, I could
Speaker 1: have made the decision to do the same ship that
Speaker 1: they was doing him and embarrass him and den'tigrate him
Speaker 1: because it was the it was commonplace amongst the culture
Speaker 1: and my family. But that ship was never cool to
Speaker 1: me because I saw how fucked up he was and
Speaker 1: that ship happened. So I just I'm just not a
Speaker 1: person that's like always been like, yo, let me go
Speaker 1: with the flow, Like that's just not my personal ship.
Speaker 1: And I get it if that's your ship, but like
Speaker 1: that's your ship, and you gotta take personal accountability for that,
Speaker 1: and don't be mad at somebody to be like, Yo,
Speaker 1: you're not a gangster, You're just a father, You're just
Speaker 1: You're just a mechanic who likes to listen to against
Speaker 1: rap music. That doesn't make you a thug or a
Speaker 1: gang banger or a criminal. You're a billion and it's
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with being a civilian. That's you couldn't say
Speaker 1: no better than me. H, wait a minute, peple, what
Speaker 1: do we miss for before I get it? For unpacked?
Speaker 1: What I'm about to unpack? What would I miss? You said?
Speaker 1: You said you said it last week and we didn't
Speaker 1: hear you. You said, people know why people like to
Speaker 1: do that? Why because sexy. It's sexy cashe for free
Speaker 1: for women under twenty five years old, sometimes voted, sometimes older. No, No,
Speaker 1: nobody fakes like they have a nice union janitor job
Speaker 1: at the club, but they're fake like they're a gangster
Speaker 1: at the club. Yes, it only goes one way. So
Speaker 1: are we blaming women? I don't know if I'm blaming
Speaker 1: when I am not, I am not. I'm I am not.
Speaker 1: I'm not blaming women for the taste. I don't blame anybody.
Speaker 1: That's the same way as like when women complain, how
Speaker 1: come a man doesn't want me because of blank? Assimilate
Speaker 1: to the market demand. If you can identify that the
Speaker 1: market demand is whatever, you're gonna assimilate to that market demand.
Speaker 1: Women trying to assimilate to a market demand doesn't exist
Speaker 1: to any complain about it. At least men are real
Speaker 1: about it in their in their fakeness. I mean, I
Speaker 1: think I think we've seen that through a lot of
Speaker 1: the changing beauty standards and and even a lot of
Speaker 1: the cultural standards standards in the world, like they've been
Speaker 1: trying to assimilate. But I'm not gonna blame women for
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna blame women for men's in security, because
Speaker 1: I don't hear any women walking around being like, yo,
Speaker 1: I'm a gangster. Yo, I'm a thug. Yo, I'm a
Speaker 1: real nig. But they'll walk around no, I'm a bitch
Speaker 1: with ask some sweetheart. We know that's not yours. That
Speaker 1: But but even Patty, what you're gonna say is an anomaly.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be an anomaly versus no. But but I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you the difference though women. Men do everything
Speaker 1: for women. Women do everything for women. I still do.
Speaker 1: I still don't really really buy that. All the way
Speaker 1: I know they do. They don't do it for themselves.
Speaker 1: The lie they tell is they do it for themselves.
Speaker 1: They don't do it the life they tell us that
Speaker 1: they do it for other way. I never heard a
Speaker 1: woman saying I do it for other women I heard
Speaker 1: all the time. I never in my life heard it.
Speaker 1: I've always heard not dressing up for a man. I'm
Speaker 1: dressing up. I'm dressing up from other girls to see
Speaker 1: me whatever you're not because those girls are gonna buy
Speaker 1: you a dress. That is Muslim woman to tell you,
Speaker 1: I never I have heard that before as well. Pete,
Speaker 1: and I've always been like, all, are you buying your
Speaker 1: own drinks tonight? I've literally everyone would tell me I
Speaker 1: did this for myself. Facts tell us. I hear both
Speaker 1: they I totally hear it out a lot here both
Speaker 1: and I also occur I'm dressing I dressed up for
Speaker 1: my girlfriends tonight, Like all right, so so just tell
Speaker 1: me you didn't want to Actually would make sense if
Speaker 1: they told me, oh, yeah, we're all doing this, I
Speaker 1: would actually be like, Okay, that makes sense. That's y'all.
Speaker 1: You a form, okay, uniform tonight. I'm cool. But at
Speaker 1: least at least you'll organized. And I'm cool for that
Speaker 1: as long as there's some sensible thing. So, but look
Speaker 1: to rewind, right, and this is dope because we could
Speaker 1: get into that, right, We could get into that, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we get into that. So like when people in our community, right,
Speaker 1: the Urbis street community will call people gay, right, what
Speaker 1: they were implicating was you were soft. Yeah, so but
Speaker 1: this is something that bothers me. Yeah, but gay doesn't
Speaker 1: mean soft. I'm gonna tell you why you're wrong. The
Speaker 1: literal definite term this. Yeah, we're talking about cultural things.
Speaker 1: That's weird. I literally saw a dude with a beard
Speaker 1: and a weave and he's singing these Patti LaBelle songs.
Speaker 1: Was he in Los Angeles? Was he at the Louisiana
Speaker 1: checking out them? People? Different? This person is from Atlanta. Different.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, that's like a capital, the capital, the
Speaker 1: capital of urban homosexuality as far as a cultural thing
Speaker 1: like that, Like that impact is unbelievable, like I've never
Speaker 1: seen Like that's to me, the epicenter of how every
Speaker 1: if Like so if you're gonna talk about urban homosexuality,
Speaker 1: all everything culture related, style related come from there. Like them,
Speaker 1: they up on it. So I'm telling you because this
Speaker 1: is why I first start seeing some of the ship
Speaker 1: in Groves. So look, so he's singing these patting the
Speaker 1: bell songs and it irritates men. I'm thinking to myself, like, bro,
Speaker 1: why can't you just be gay? Why it always got
Speaker 1: to be some weird ship? Why it always got to
Speaker 1: be you gotta do contrast ship? You feel me like
Speaker 1: it's like crypt that were bloods, I'd be like, bro,
Speaker 1: why like crimps that we're in, Like why what is
Speaker 1: the point of the contrast? Like okay, are you setting
Speaker 1: somebody up like you like you want somebody to come
Speaker 1: ask you like, Hey, where are you from? You feel me?
Speaker 1: So you could like get the jump on them or
Speaker 1: are you like you're like, I'm the baddest nick I
Speaker 1: just wear what I want to wear, Like what is
Speaker 1: the purpose? So okay, now now see this is my
Speaker 1: only issue with this part of this conversation because now
Speaker 1: we're talking about stuff that you can physically see versus
Speaker 1: what ideologically or in terms of people's ego is making
Speaker 1: is like reflecting in the insecurities because like you can
Speaker 1: call yourself a gangster on the internet, that don't mean
Speaker 1: you portray that lifestyle in the in the real life.
Speaker 1: Right what you're talking about is like real life ship,
Speaker 1: and that's also apparent ship. Also, we know, like somebody
Speaker 1: could make a statement in terms of anything about anybody's
Speaker 1: appearance and be like, Yo, why you make that decision?
Speaker 1: But that's my But that's my point though, right, Like,
Speaker 1: like people could look at the met Gallen ask a
Speaker 1: lot of people about a lot of decisions that was
Speaker 1: made about a lot of that difference that point the
Speaker 1: point of that day. What really makes that different though
Speaker 1: if because the event, the event is built around being outlandish. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but what if every day of their life is built
Speaker 1: around being outlandish. Well that's the point. That's why people
Speaker 1: don't wear met Galla outfits on Tuesday just to the
Speaker 1: liquor store. And if you do, I'm looking at you like,
Speaker 1: this is not the appropriate event for such apperil. But
Speaker 1: let me get back to the point. So like so
Speaker 1: when you say the Grammys, I definitely did. But that's
Speaker 1: not the point. Listen, dickies, this is the whole us.
Speaker 1: So we get to that actor. So so yes, I
Speaker 1: yea itself does has nothing to do where your outfit.
Speaker 1: Gay has nothing to do with your mannerisms. Yay literally
Speaker 1: means you are a man attracted to the same sex, right,
Speaker 1: that's gay. Right, But why the fuck does it feel
Speaker 1: like they always have to be a girl? Well, I
Speaker 1: have a hypothesis on one element of this um and
Speaker 1: half of them I think feel. I think it's probably
Speaker 1: by the nature of a little bit of role relationship
Speaker 1: kind of stuff within the dating dynamic in the community.
Speaker 1: You know, you tend to see kind of like with lesbians,
Speaker 1: to see a feminal stud together a lot, so you
Speaker 1: may get a similar dynamic on the male side. See,
Speaker 1: that's my point. Even even in that ship, if you
Speaker 1: are a lesbian woman. Why the fuck is there a
Speaker 1: deal though? In the fucking bedroom that's a mystery for
Speaker 1: all meant to wonder. And the other day we're gonna
Speaker 1: impact that the other day, like they unpack that motherfucker
Speaker 1: when they show up. And like you said, like you said, right, um,
Speaker 1: because of the relationship, right that there in right, So
Speaker 1: let's say if one is softer, or one is the
Speaker 1: bottom or kind of the girl, if it's the girl,
Speaker 1: if it's the after one, this void it starts to
Speaker 1: avoid the conversation more and more every day. To me,
Speaker 1: that's the only person in all of homosexuality being on
Speaker 1: the male or female side, The only person that to
Speaker 1: me makes any sense practically mechanic like mechanically speaking, is
Speaker 1: like the bottom gay man, because everything else that's going
Speaker 1: on there you can get in the normal conventional relationship.
Speaker 1: I don't think the bottom gay man is the most
Speaker 1: normal one. I think the top, you know, I think
Speaker 1: it's the most explicable, it's the most rational because you
Speaker 1: can go a woman, the most rational. No, because you
Speaker 1: can suck a woman doggy style the same way. You
Speaker 1: cannot get fucked in the same way by a woman
Speaker 1: that they bought a man can buy a man, So
Speaker 1: mechanically that's the most sensible, uh, at least to me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but but that also but that that's a confusion to me.
Speaker 1: And we're getting off points. Another episode. You're not gonna
Speaker 1: have one of my I'm not gotta have one of
Speaker 1: my gay partners on, so I could really pick his
Speaker 1: brains and really see what the funk he was thinking,
Speaker 1: because if some of this ship just stupid. But my
Speaker 1: only point in all of it is to bring it
Speaker 1: back to what I was saying that we took it
Speaker 1: on a tangent, even we took it on tangent, right,
Speaker 1: So my point in all of it was is its
Speaker 1: behavioral is behavioral patterns of a zimilar I'm sorry of
Speaker 1: assimilation that you either fall into or you don't. And
Speaker 1: I think where our community comes from, right, being gay,
Speaker 1: or being a square, or or being a nice person
Speaker 1: has always been looked at as being a bad thing.
Speaker 1: It's never something where like people appreciated you for being
Speaker 1: the nicest guy in the neighborhood, Like that's not that's
Speaker 1: not a thing in our community, but has always been true. Well,
Speaker 1: watching the mask be a thing in our community because
Speaker 1: that's what we've done when we've taken the broken, shattered
Speaker 1: pieces of whatever American culture we've built over the past
Speaker 1: four hundred years and cobbled it together into this thing
Speaker 1: that where it's only four pillars. So like hip hop
Speaker 1: is not monolithic, but it's pretty close. So you and
Speaker 1: you either following it in the lines of yeah, but
Speaker 1: you said, but you're the same person where we have
Speaker 1: where we frequently have arguments about stuff being streaked and
Speaker 1: stuff being not and you telling me that certain people
Speaker 1: are in hip hop because you don't view them as
Speaker 1: being from the streets. So it's not it's not it's
Speaker 1: not saying that they don't have a street. Now you're
Speaker 1: saying how you feel about what I'm saying. You're not
Speaker 1: saying that that's what you've been saying. Because what I
Speaker 1: am saying, hip listen. Hip hop is a representation, right,
Speaker 1: It's it's in reference to street urban culture. It's the
Speaker 1: lifestyle of people that grew up in street urban culture.
Speaker 1: It's not about people being streaked. You don't have to
Speaker 1: be streaked to grow up in the urban street culture.
Speaker 1: Like you're not a street person. That don't change. You
Speaker 1: grew up in urban street culture. You're aware of every
Speaker 1: last thing in South Soude, Chicago that motherfucker's do in
Speaker 1: urban street culture. You grew up in it, but you
Speaker 1: don't have to be street. Yeah, but you're you're telling
Speaker 1: a whole another class so they can't be a part
Speaker 1: of the cool kids. It's not cool. It's not it's
Speaker 1: cool crowd and marketed to you every fucking day. Bro,
Speaker 1: If it is high school, don't you want some other
Speaker 1: motherfucker wearing some big gas glasses. This is the high
Speaker 1: school cafeteria. If this is the high school cafeterier, there
Speaker 1: are multiple sections. The athlete sit over there, the gangster
Speaker 1: sit over there, the players sit over there, the god kids.
Speaker 1: The god kids ain't thinking the gangsters cool. They're the
Speaker 1: hip hop kids on one side of the room, and
Speaker 1: the kids has not hip hop on the other side
Speaker 1: of the room. You look, it's but that's the point.
Speaker 1: When you're not it's it's not though, right. The point
Speaker 1: is when you're not this, there's a thousand things to be.
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna tell you why people want to be
Speaker 1: hip hop. I'm gonna tell you why people fake like
Speaker 1: the hip hop. What does everybody want to listen, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you why bad like the gangsters. Right, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you why people fake like they I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you why they fake like they hip hop. It
Speaker 1: is the easiest thing to lie and say you have
Speaker 1: every other thing in the world. You actually have to have,
Speaker 1: like like checkable resources, like literally anybody. The thing about
Speaker 1: being a man. I used to get so mad at
Speaker 1: my homeboys. Bro, they would let anybody join. It would
Speaker 1: be a motherfucker who I Q is twenty six six?
Speaker 1: Oh you know, show that nigga some love. I've always said,
Speaker 1: I think that's the biggest flawing gang banging. People don't
Speaker 1: understand even the members. The members. Most don't understand how
Speaker 1: integral it is to choose members, right. They don't get
Speaker 1: how integral that is, right, because gang banging is weird
Speaker 1: because one person represents everybody. Like if one of my
Speaker 1: homeboys go to the Pj's Imperial Courts, which is two
Speaker 1: minutes from where I'm from, p J Watch Crips Imperial
Speaker 1: Courts and they shoot. They go to the Pink Store,
Speaker 1: which is the store inside the Imperial Court projects. And
Speaker 1: if that one homie, right, he goes over there to
Speaker 1: get something. He has a situation with the PJ Cribs
Speaker 1: and it requires him to shoot him. Right, he gets
Speaker 1: to shoot him, and he kills two or three p
Speaker 1: J cribs, Shoot four or five of them, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Shoot four or five of them, the
Speaker 1: whole nine. Right, he could run away if I drive
Speaker 1: down Imperial right by the you know, if I drive
Speaker 1: an Imperial past the Imperial courts and they see glasses,
Speaker 1: they will shoot at me. They are not going to
Speaker 1: come with simple conflict resolutions. At some point, it's going
Speaker 1: to be all out war all the time. And that's
Speaker 1: why I've always said most gang members are not really
Speaker 1: in tune with what is going on, Like they're just
Speaker 1: a part of it, no different than the American person
Speaker 1: that feels their hatriot. They really have no real idea
Speaker 1: of what's going on. They're just a part of it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And they're not real Americans in they're not really you're
Speaker 1: not a real American. You don't know what it feels
Speaker 1: like are real Americans? Because it's just a propaganda, Like
Speaker 1: it don't take much to be a really point. It
Speaker 1: don't take much to be a real nigger in these
Speaker 1: days But this is my point, This is my point.
Speaker 1: To be a real American, you have to be born here.
Speaker 1: You have to go through a fucking strenuous process. They
Speaker 1: don't just put seven Americans around you and they beat
Speaker 1: you up for not seconds and you're an American yet Yet,
Speaker 1: if an American person right travels to Iraq and blows
Speaker 1: up something, they're not just gonna send the nukes. They're
Speaker 1: gonna call, hey, this motherfucker. No, we don't know this motherfucker.
Speaker 1: It's going to be conflict resolution. And you know why,
Speaker 1: because America does a much better job at becoming a man.
Speaker 1: You could come in the hood. If if America you
Speaker 1: could come in the hood, you could come over your
Speaker 1: in the hood. But that don't mean you wanted the homies.
Speaker 1: Oh no, No, you have American citizenship. I don't know.
Speaker 1: And they're not gonna put seven Americans around you and
Speaker 1: just beat you up for ninety seconds. In you in
Speaker 1: hold up. They'll even let you pay taxes or we
Speaker 1: can get some money. You're getting money over here. You
Speaker 1: pay your taxes because you get money over here. But
Speaker 1: that don't mean you wanted to hume. Again, that don't
Speaker 1: mean you gotta be born into this motherfucker or go
Speaker 1: through the strenuous process of being one of the homies,
Speaker 1: and it don't take ninety seconds. That mean, yeah, but
Speaker 1: if you but but but even then you conflated ninety
Speaker 1: seconds to American citizenship. Right, anybody could just go and
Speaker 1: get jumped in for ninety seconds and be like, yo,
Speaker 1: now I'm a real niggers point, but no, no, I
Speaker 1: understand that's your point. But my point is it's fucking
Speaker 1: easy to assimilate and you're and you're missing the whole thing.
Speaker 1: They don't give a funk about none of that, all
Speaker 1: of the terms that the street, the cool kids, the jocks,
Speaker 1: all of the terms right because everybody high school probably y'all,
Speaker 1: y'all have all had your own slang, and only the
Speaker 1: cool kids might have used their own certain slang within
Speaker 1: the school or whatever. Not everybody was just using that.
Speaker 1: But even when people was using it, they was using
Speaker 1: it because they was trying to be cool. People are
Speaker 1: just trying to assimilate and be like something that they
Speaker 1: feel is cool. And that's the whole problem to me
Speaker 1: personally within our community is that we don't have enough individuals.
Speaker 1: I argue all the time with my homies about business
Speaker 1: ship and they always I'm scared. I'm like, well, what
Speaker 1: you're scared for? It like because other people failed. I'm like,
Speaker 1: you're an individual who gives a funk about who else failed.
Speaker 1: You're fucking individual. Yeah, but obviously so many people failed
Speaker 1: trug do it's like, all right, we then you just
Speaker 1: assimilated to the rest of them losers. You just assimilated
Speaker 1: to the loser because you know why you can do.
Speaker 1: When people fail, you're gonna be like, how did you fail? Yeah,
Speaker 1: But it's the same thing with this culture because if
Speaker 1: you listen to the actual music, none of this fucking
Speaker 1: music is about anything that's good. Like not nine needing five, no,
Speaker 1: no stops, not no, nothing to do with that old man.
Speaker 1: Know what I'm saying. Listen to what I'm saying, and
Speaker 1: before you stut me off, listen to what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: None of it is about anything that's positive. The only
Speaker 1: positive message in most of this music is like, yo,
Speaker 1: we made it out of this ship. But the majority
Speaker 1: of what you're listening to this ship is about. It's
Speaker 1: not about fun ship. It's not about fun ship of
Speaker 1: pussy and blowing money and to be exactly, and these
Speaker 1: same niggas as going into debt, sucking up their family
Speaker 1: for generations. But you have to be fun to be positive. No,
Speaker 1: you know what's not fun. You know what's not fun.
Speaker 1: It's not fun. Generational wealth, it's not fun. Every last
Speaker 1: wealthy person I know told me it is not fun.
Speaker 1: Well guess what. Guess what would they rather be pouring
Speaker 1: in the hood or would they rather be wealthy and
Speaker 1: telling you it's not sucking fun? That's not the point again.
Speaker 1: Fun is a temporary come versus process of the same thing.
Speaker 1: It's hard to maintain. Generational typically typically three generations in
Speaker 1: and out. It's three because because in reality it's sacrifice.
Speaker 1: Nothing it's ever fun about. Yeah, yeah, but but we're not.
Speaker 1: But my point is is like the sacrifice that people make, right,
Speaker 1: the story of the nice guy in the hood is
Speaker 1: not always the one that turns into the hit record.
Speaker 1: Like even if okay, go ahead, listen, tell me one
Speaker 1: slave in the history of slavery, right, three year history
Speaker 1: of slavery, right of Translantic slave t three fun, Tell
Speaker 1: me one slave who lived his days in positivity that
Speaker 1: we celebrate. Name one who was like he was that
Speaker 1: slave that was like, I'm gonna just work hard for Master.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do what he says so he don't whoop me.
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you y'all need to to and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna work every day and the Master's gonna love me.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna work my way up and henho celebrated though, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but who do we celebrate? Celebrate? Which? Whose day is that?
Speaker 1: Which day? Who is that guy that we're going to
Speaker 1: make But that's not modern America. G We're not America.
Speaker 1: We celebrate we not know the fucking slaves no more.
Speaker 1: And that mentality is not it's not about it's not
Speaker 1: about we gotta stop looking at that. Nobody celebrates, Nobody
Speaker 1: celebrates what's regular, because that's why it's fucking not celebrated.
Speaker 1: There's no happy Tuesday because toolsday's fucking fifty two times.
Speaker 1: Tell me why the music of the past, before the
Speaker 1: hip hop culture has so much more positivity and than
Speaker 1: than the music didn't really don't have no every soon.
Speaker 1: It was about being heartbroke. Yeah, that's not really, that's
Speaker 1: not but you gotta be in love to be heartbroken
Speaker 1: that yeah, But it's all about about party. It ain't
Speaker 1: too ain't too Proud to beg is a happy song
Speaker 1: to you? A lot of them songs really ain't that happy, bro,
Speaker 1: They're just singing and dancing. It's really not that happy.
Speaker 1: Marvin Gate telling about fun, he say let's get married.
Speaker 1: It's what's going on. It's not a happy song. That
Speaker 1: is that is that is not positive. It's a nasty man.
Speaker 1: What's I can tell you ain't heard the old album?
Speaker 1: I feel you know, goddamn what heard Glass? I'm talking
Speaker 1: about Pat So what you're persecuting? Right? In gangster rap?
Speaker 1: The key point is survival. Give it that, it doesn't
Speaker 1: seem that way and that, but you're indoctrinating people and
Speaker 1: you want them to follow a culture with every single,
Speaker 1: every single, every single but the majority of the popular
Speaker 1: stories are about survival, and they survivor stories, and you
Speaker 1: expect people that come up and just have an average
Speaker 1: being and living to be like, damn, I'm not a survivor,
Speaker 1: And that's really in their mind what they think, like, yo, like,
Speaker 1: I'm not one of them, but I'm from the same ship.
Speaker 1: If I'm not one of y'all, then now I'm not
Speaker 1: a survivor. And that's really what it boils down to
Speaker 1: That's why you get guys like like I could be
Speaker 1: a real nigg and still be a father because I'm
Speaker 1: I'm from the streets, but like I ain't never did
Speaker 1: no gangs to ship, but like I'm still here. I
Speaker 1: understand it. I mean you understand, like you don't have
Speaker 1: to listen. Y'all are both survivors facts. Yeah, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: participant whether you are participant or not. Like like the
Speaker 1: song we did together right time, you're talking about the
Speaker 1: situation where you had to run before you talk about
Speaker 1: situation where people trying to rob you before that survival.
Speaker 1: If you made a rap song right now about somebody
Speaker 1: trying to rob you and somebody else coming to help you,
Speaker 1: it's a fantastic hip hop song. A matter of fact,
Speaker 1: that hip hop song was made. It's one of the
Speaker 1: greatest hip hop songs of all time. It's called Regulate.
Speaker 1: It's nothing tough about it. It's not tough. He's the
Speaker 1: whole time he's shooting dice, Rob Warren, give me all
Speaker 1: your ship born you motherfuck You can hear the son
Speaker 1: he's that's not positive And guests who comes Supernate comes Supernate,
Speaker 1: supern recipes, flies in and gets him out of trouble,
Speaker 1: and they get he get him out of the ship,
Speaker 1: and they go hook up with some freaks at the
Speaker 1: motel to celebrate. That's fucking awesome. That's every cowboys story
Speaker 1: in history that is wonderful. Yeah, but you don't have
Speaker 1: to be the is not a wonderful story though. I
Speaker 1: don't think but that's wait wait wait wait wait wait
Speaker 1: wait wait real quick, I do what I say this.
Speaker 1: I don't think positivity is entertaining nobody want. I don't
Speaker 1: remember I was a kid and called summertime fucking awesome.
Speaker 1: Wasn't it a little bit of confidence or something saying
Speaker 1: there's always some level of confidence that temperature and him.
Speaker 1: But this is this is the thing that made am
Speaker 1: the time awesome. And that's what I'm saying. Hip hop
Speaker 1: isn't just but those are. Urban culture is not just gangs,
Speaker 1: It's not just it's it's a life, it's a way
Speaker 1: we live. Friday is a movie about street urban culture
Speaker 1: voided of games, fucking, fantastic, fucking, hilarious, fucking excellent. It's
Speaker 1: one of the most classic movies that's ever came from
Speaker 1: black culture in America that did a drive bound smoky
Speaker 1: and and it wasn't game. Remember them was hired assassins
Speaker 1: because you didn't pay the drug money for the weed
Speaker 1: that you got fronted for two hundred dollars. Listen to
Speaker 1: It's it's the print, It's Prince, Prince, Prince, principalities. This again,
Speaker 1: that's a lie. And I'm tired of people stretching it
Speaker 1: about the culture. It's not just by I still feel
Speaker 1: like angles always about gangs though glasses. I'm not about
Speaker 1: gang about where we from, I understand that. But but
Speaker 1: what I'm trying to get you to understand is, right,
Speaker 1: you could be like like the same argument he's having
Speaker 1: about Kanye and the and the stolen in the in
Speaker 1: the jeans, Right, you essentially with that one song have
Speaker 1: surmised his entire experience as a Chicago into that one song.
Speaker 1: But if you listen to a song like drive Slow,
Speaker 1: what he talking to you about being the non gang
Speaker 1: member surrounded by gang members and his homie, that's literally
Speaker 1: a Stone gave him a Stone nickname so that when
Speaker 1: he could go to school and not get jumped by Stone.
Speaker 1: That's that's a street experience, that's a real that's a
Speaker 1: similar experience of what you're telling me about what the
Speaker 1: nick doll regulationship as it is with that. So when
Speaker 1: I'm saying, wait a minute, but wait a minute, wait
Speaker 1: to my point right, right, because of that story, right,
Speaker 1: or because of Regulate. Right If if Warrengey didn't make
Speaker 1: no other songs and he was just like, yo, I'm
Speaker 1: a real nigger because I'm may regulate, does that make
Speaker 1: him a real nigga? No? Okay, then right it doesn't. Right,
Speaker 1: But the story is surrounded around a real nigga. So
Speaker 1: somebody that's not a real nigga, it's still gonna listen
Speaker 1: to that song and be like, Yo, even if I'm
Speaker 1: not Warring G, I don't need to be Warring G.
Speaker 1: I want to be Nate Dog. And that's the whole point.
Speaker 1: Everybody want to be the Nate Dog. Yes it is.
Speaker 1: That's all of these people that you call squares of
Speaker 1: civilians here regulate and they want to be the Nate
Speaker 1: Dog of the situation. That's their problem. That's not the
Speaker 1: problem culture that we end you. It's not the culture
Speaker 1: that we don't culture. We live in a culture where
Speaker 1: we celebrate heroes consistently, NonStop, insistently NonStop. So how do
Speaker 1: you get mad? But what are you talking about? How
Speaker 1: are you getting mad at black people? Right? Where we
Speaker 1: don't have a culture, We don't have no historic tribes
Speaker 1: to go back and be like, yo, this is my
Speaker 1: tribic culture unless you go to twenty three and me
Speaker 1: and they just sold all your fucking data for billions
Speaker 1: of dolls. Right, So you don't know where your ancestral
Speaker 1: roots are, so your only ancestral roots or where you
Speaker 1: come from. So if you come up around this ship,
Speaker 1: and even if you're not of it, these motherfucker's be
Speaker 1: looking at this ship and thinking, this is the only
Speaker 1: culture that I have, And I would much rather be
Speaker 1: the Nate Dog than the warrngy in the situation, even
Speaker 1: though warr g it's still fucking warrngy, regardless of if
Speaker 1: Nate Dog came to save them from getting right. If
Speaker 1: you're grown human, that's like yo, issue, But you gotta
Speaker 1: stop because the culture doesn't start when you become a
Speaker 1: fucking adult. It's I've been hearing Biggie song since I
Speaker 1: was working born when your top stop I said it
Speaker 1: to the home yesterday, I was like, you know what
Speaker 1: I knew Biggie was the greatest rapper alive now that
Speaker 1: I'm older, because the same Biggie songs that I loved
Speaker 1: and I heard when I was a kid, I was like, this,
Speaker 1: dude is the greatest ever. I'm thirty something years old
Speaker 1: now and I still listen to them and I can
Speaker 1: still visualize them and have the same feeling as I
Speaker 1: had when I was younger. I've been ingrained and indoctrinated
Speaker 1: until this culture. I as an end of dual descaded
Speaker 1: not to be a fucking but I was one of
Speaker 1: the smart one to do that. You have told me
Speaker 1: a million times, Tom, you can't expect everybody to be
Speaker 1: like you because they don't think like you. That's my
Speaker 1: point exactly. They only want to assimilate. So if you
Speaker 1: put a culture full of assimilation and bad guys that
Speaker 1: you celebrate, that's what they're gonna gravitate to it. Why
Speaker 1: the fun. We're mad at these motherfucker's for wanting to
Speaker 1: be real niggas. I'm not mad at them want to
Speaker 1: be real. I'm mad at them for not being real
Speaker 1: niggas and saying they're real niggas. You can't be mad
Speaker 1: at you built, But it's the same thing you build.
Speaker 1: It's not the same thing that by by your standard,
Speaker 1: people would go out and try to be heroes. They
Speaker 1: do all the fucking time. No they don't. No, they don't. No,
Speaker 1: they don't. They don't act like their hero. You ain't
Speaker 1: never heard no stories about some motherfucker's seeing some motherfucking
Speaker 1: the lake drowning and the person wind up living and
Speaker 1: they GUFI asked at the bottom of the lake. What
Speaker 1: happens if there's a hundred people on the side of
Speaker 1: the lake and one guy jupe and and he's the
Speaker 1: fucking hero. But people don't want to be the hera.
Speaker 1: They want to they jumped in the lake to save him,
Speaker 1: but there's always you know what to jump in the
Speaker 1: lake and finding the rule by the exception though exactly
Speaker 1: we're talking about. The guy is like, why go getting
Speaker 1: right now? He's like, but the homie told me, hold up,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go do it, So I just let him
Speaker 1: go ahead and do. No, nigga, no you didn't. You're
Speaker 1: not a hero. You don't have to assimilate anything. You
Speaker 1: can go out in this world and be everything. You
Speaker 1: don't have to dream about any life that somebody's living.
Speaker 1: You can go out and live it. That's my whole point.
Speaker 1: But I'm telling you can dream about it and you
Speaker 1: can exhibit that without having to do it because you're not.
Speaker 1: Has made it so easy for everybody to assimilate. Same way.
Speaker 1: If I get if you, if I took a ninety
Speaker 1: second beat down, I'm now a gang member. Everybody's like, yo,
Speaker 1: I don't even need that ship. I can surpasses the internet.
Speaker 1: These kids are being raised and being indoctrinated into this ship,
Speaker 1: and you just gotta understand that they just so you're saying,
Speaker 1: so you're saying there indoctrinated into being frauds. Yes, they are,
Speaker 1: because most of these rappers are fucking frauds. And you
Speaker 1: know this, then that because they're not a fucking fraud,
Speaker 1: then that then because who is a fraud? Right now,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do that. You already know I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna do that, but you people listen. I think people
Speaker 1: put a tin on the two, but it's a tool. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't really think these rappers be playing these days,
Speaker 1: but I don't think people. Do you think they really
Speaker 1: as frauds that it's like, yeah, I don't think they
Speaker 1: like I don't think they'd be playing. I just disagree
Speaker 1: with as many rappers have dying these days, I don't
Speaker 1: think they playing. I think they don't think they played.
Speaker 1: They I think they dead serious. Not like he said. Now,
Speaker 1: they might take it from a five to a fucking
Speaker 1: twenty six, but I don't think they really playing that much.
Speaker 1: They might over that, see what I'm saying, Like, I
Speaker 1: think there's some people I agree with you that are
Speaker 1: not Maybe they didn't get put on the gag, right,
Speaker 1: Let's say if somebody didn't get put on the game,
Speaker 1: they didn't get caughted on. But culturally they were raised
Speaker 1: in that community and they're late to the party right there,
Speaker 1: So now they're rappingly like, Okay, yes I'm one of them.
Speaker 1: Technically they are one of them. Right, Technically they are
Speaker 1: one of them. They're just not a part of said
Speaker 1: military or infantry. Right, So I don't think rappers is
Speaker 1: just lying. But that and and that's what I'm telling
Speaker 1: time like that don't make sense, Like if if that
Speaker 1: was the case, you would go out and try to
Speaker 1: be what people are. You would go out and try
Speaker 1: to be what people are. You would go like there
Speaker 1: is guys like C Mac right. C Mac tells a
Speaker 1: story Like when you listen to C Mac on YouTube,
Speaker 1: he talked about he said, the reason he wanted to
Speaker 1: join the gang is because he was trying to get
Speaker 1: on a rap He said that ship. Yah, that ship
Speaker 1: sounded crazy to me because I was like, he was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I was, you know, trying to get on this rap ships.
Speaker 1: I was going hood the hood, and I was like,
Speaker 1: this is crazy, right. But the difference is he was right.
Speaker 1: There was a time in his life where he was
Speaker 1: on Facebook and he was fraudently lead, acting like he
Speaker 1: was from different gangs and making up gangs. But then
Speaker 1: when it was time, he went over there and got
Speaker 1: beat up like anybody else that got corded on, and
Speaker 1: at that point officially he became. And then now whatever
Speaker 1: he's doing as far as culturally for that community is
Speaker 1: a different conversation. But he went and he moved past
Speaker 1: being a fraud to being in actuality. Yeah. So I
Speaker 1: don't agree with Tom. I I think this is the
Speaker 1: natural human nature. People fake like their doctors all the time.
Speaker 1: There's people who go to certain things that doctors get
Speaker 1: all the broads at, and they'll play like that doctor.
Speaker 1: I know, somebody specifically. I don't know them, but I
Speaker 1: know of them, and my parents explained to me that
Speaker 1: this person fraudulently presented themselves for years as a police
Speaker 1: officer because he liked the culture that came with being
Speaker 1: a police officer off duty, the type of women you
Speaker 1: could get, you know what I mean, whatever, whatever it benefits,
Speaker 1: it's people who act like they're super military men. I
Speaker 1: was the military ship and never really were in the military.
Speaker 1: So it's again, So that's why I'm not giving time
Speaker 1: a pass like it's the rappers fault, because people are
Speaker 1: fraudulently trying to achieve titles that they didn't rightfully earn.
Speaker 1: Because it happens throughout. It happens for me, and being
Speaker 1: a real nigger requires certain things. Like like, imagine if
Speaker 1: somebody started arguing in the military they're a private and
Speaker 1: they're like, why should be a general? Why I can't
Speaker 1: be a general? And they're like, well you have to
Speaker 1: be in the military for ten years to be a
Speaker 1: general and so forth and so forth. Well yeah, but
Speaker 1: you know, um, I feel like I went on one tour,
Speaker 1: so you know I should be It's like, bro, that's
Speaker 1: not road is and that's what I was telling how
Speaker 1: men and different people were Like somebody told me I'm
Speaker 1: marginalized black men or you marginalizes. No I didn't. I
Speaker 1: did not marginalize you. I just put you in your
Speaker 1: proper land. So if that's a margin, because you can
Speaker 1: come over here, See margins means you can't go out
Speaker 1: of here right here, you want to be one of us,
Speaker 1: I'll take you over here. They're gonna treat you like
Speaker 1: a stranger because you're not really a community based person.
Speaker 1: So non attended them is gonna kick your ass. They're
Speaker 1: gonna whoop your ask for about because you are a
Speaker 1: stranger and they don't know really that you nothing. They
Speaker 1: got whoop your ask for about two hundred and in
Speaker 1: seventy seconds, they gonna whoop on your ass. They might
Speaker 1: whoop your ask for four or five minutes. Because now
Speaker 1: they really gotta push you because like they don't know,
Speaker 1: there's no mercy, They don't have mercy for just every
Speaker 1: human being that's trying to be down. And you're a stranger,
Speaker 1: so we really gotta push you. And if you don't
Speaker 1: exhibit signs that you will fight back, they really gonna
Speaker 1: beat you up for real. Stop you into the ground.
Speaker 1: So you don't have to fake like being a gang member.
Speaker 1: You actually could come be one, especially in today's time.
Speaker 1: You don't actually gotta fact like you're a real nigga.
Speaker 1: All you gotta do is go to jail for other
Speaker 1: people ship and don't tell them, go to jail for
Speaker 1: your own ship and don't tell on nobody. All you
Speaker 1: gotta do is when somebody press your line, stand up
Speaker 1: and tell them where you're from, even if you think
Speaker 1: it might come with a death sent it might come
Speaker 1: with a death penalty. That's what being a real nigga
Speaker 1: is the fact that you carried yourself in this nigga
Speaker 1: lifestyle and the street nigga lifestyle or this gangster lifestyle honorably. Honorably.
Speaker 1: You just smutch your name out. There's no marks against
Speaker 1: your records if they were they way back. You have
Speaker 1: achieved the status of real nigga. You have survived at all.
Speaker 1: If a nigga bang, don't you even though they might
Speaker 1: have been you know, you might have been like old
Speaker 1: up my nigga, it's two of them, all right, Well,
Speaker 1: look there, I'm from where I'm from, and let's get it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: every every Jeeperrico tells a story, right, and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have him on the pod. He tells a story where
Speaker 1: he was a kid. He was thirteen fourteen, and he's
Speaker 1: from Broadway gangster crip right which is off Broadway, right
Speaker 1: next to the one ten freeway. And he was a kid.
Speaker 1: He got caught up by some devil lines and grown
Speaker 1: ups and they asked him where is he from? And
Speaker 1: he said some other gang. And I saw some guys
Speaker 1: say to him like, oh, you know that's some sucking ship,
Speaker 1: has some sucking ship. Well, really, if you went to
Speaker 1: the coach, if you're thirteen and fourteen, we would have
Speaker 1: made fun of you. You the canter, the hood, we
Speaker 1: niggas mark you out. We're just because you're thirteen fourteen,
Speaker 1: We wouldn't expected you to necessarily have to contend with
Speaker 1: three and four grown men from a hood that will
Speaker 1: probably murder you. No, no, I'll even I'll even tell
Speaker 1: you two stories about what I knew. Like you know what,
Speaker 1: this ain't really for me. I'm a regular nigger, right,
Speaker 1: all right? Cool? So, like I said, I grew up
Speaker 1: in a stone neighborhood. So everybody in my neighborhood was
Speaker 1: all stars. So obviously when you like eleven twelve, really
Speaker 1: before you go to high school, like if you if
Speaker 1: you outside, Nigga said, just saying you stones because like
Speaker 1: that's what you were around, right cool? So yeah, coach
Speaker 1: like that, like so everybody just like a stone. So
Speaker 1: I remember one day, so okay, So I grew up
Speaker 1: in a place car Rack City. The place next to
Speaker 1: me was Fintown. It was still all stones before whatever reason,
Speaker 1: I have no idea why my neighborhood can not cross
Speaker 1: the train tracks. If you cross the train tracks, you
Speaker 1: have to be ready, possibly to fight, right, so cool.
Speaker 1: We crossed the train tracks one day, getting bored, a
Speaker 1: crossed the blite man. But all the girls used to
Speaker 1: be over there, like it was more girls in that community.
Speaker 1: It was more girls in that community. So we rolled out.
Speaker 1: So we rolled out bye Caross train tracks. One time
Speaker 1: found some girls pick them up, put them like on
Speaker 1: our pays and rode them like somewhere else. We're like, yo,
Speaker 1: let's go back and like see if we can find
Speaker 1: some mode. We go back, make the wrong turn, we
Speaker 1: get stopped by something. We like eleven twelve, they're like
Speaker 1: seventeen years old. Probably we get stopped right. They're like, man,
Speaker 1: somebody took my bike yesterday and he looked at me
Speaker 1: and was like she kind of looked like yours. I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh ship. So we walk over check my heart rate
Speaker 1: and then it was like I just laughed and was like,
Speaker 1: gonna get up by the hand, don't come back, should
Speaker 1: turn my eyes around, pettal away, like the homies came
Speaker 1: back over, like why you leave them to me? Like yeah, whatever.
Speaker 1: So that's one time I knew. And then the other
Speaker 1: time I think I was in high school and I remember, like, again,
Speaker 1: wherever you from, people would just tell you that, like
Speaker 1: that's what type of that? Well, just tell you that, right,
Speaker 1: So everybody knew I was from a Stone neighborhood and
Speaker 1: they just told me I was Stone. But then one
Speaker 1: day I have to fight somebody for like and I'm like, bro,
Speaker 1: I'm not even, I'm not even. I'm not about to
Speaker 1: do this. And that was the last time I ever, ever, ever, ever,
Speaker 1: ever even came close to claiming anything. So I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm not about to do this. And people think that
Speaker 1: it's crazy, but it's not right. It's right now. If
Speaker 1: you're an American man and you go to Russia. You're
Speaker 1: over there chilling. You know, you're trying to bust you.
Speaker 1: Some of them pale ass holes that they got over there, right,
Speaker 1: somebody might want to fight you. Somebody might want to
Speaker 1: fight you. Side note one of the most interesting UM
Speaker 1: international political stories of our lifetime. UM In front of
Speaker 1: a panel of international press in the press room at
Speaker 1: the Crime One, somebody asked UM pruting about the Trump
Speaker 1: thing with the Russian Oh. Mr Trump is a very
Speaker 1: wealthy man. He does beauty patters. He does not need
Speaker 1: to dabble in the world of Russian prostitutes, even though
Speaker 1: we have the best in the world. He gave he
Speaker 1: gave them the plug in the press back. I thought
Speaker 1: that was a fantastic quote. Man. And again people try
Speaker 1: to marginalize, like like oh, boys said, they try to
Speaker 1: marginal lives like this is something, Oh, I cannot believe,
Speaker 1: Gie me how they are behaving in said community, these gangsters,
Speaker 1: but for the whole world is gangsters. Where are you
Speaker 1: from is the question. You might be from the Jackson family,
Speaker 1: your wife and your kids. You might be from Los Angeles.
Speaker 1: You might be a Clipper. There's people right now that
Speaker 1: are Dodger fans. That fight Angel fans. We're right, there's
Speaker 1: Later fans who fight Rams fans. There are American people, right,
Speaker 1: American people who go to different countries and fight people
Speaker 1: because they're American. This is not some foreign concept, you know,
Speaker 1: community based, you know, blah blah blah. Like they can't
Speaker 1: isolate it. So that's my issue. When somebody feels like, oh,
Speaker 1: I need access to these titles, you actually can be this.
Speaker 1: Like I could see. I could see if Drake was
Speaker 1: mad at me, right, Drake, like, then I'm glasses. You said,
Speaker 1: I'm not hip hop because he has no access to it.
Speaker 1: He can't represent street urban culture like he could. He
Speaker 1: could go get him some dudes from the gutters places
Speaker 1: of Toronto and tell their stories, right and be like
Speaker 1: I'm representing this, you know. Uh um um. He could
Speaker 1: do that. That's not a crazy thing that happens in
Speaker 1: hip hop all the time. You become the voice of
Speaker 1: a certain community. But guess what, just like in Mexico,
Speaker 1: there's this music called Corridos is gang stories, right, it's
Speaker 1: all Rancher stories. If you ever see them, dudes that
Speaker 1: we're having them shirts, the button down shirts with the
Speaker 1: jeans and crazy belt and the cowboy boots and them
Speaker 1: crazy hats and the music be just boom boom boom
Speaker 1: boom boom. Holly, right, them is all gangster rap songs.
Speaker 1: All them songs are drugs and war stories about life
Speaker 1: on ranches and shootouts and motherfucker's dying. That is a cowboy.
Speaker 1: And guess what, even though they have people who sing
Speaker 1: for their said cartel community whatever, people shoot them. Motherfucker's
Speaker 1: a lot of them. Motherfucker's got shot the coach. Motherfucker
Speaker 1: breathing there, Chino Sanchez, That motherfucker's so cold they shot him.
Speaker 1: You just go look up Cordidos and go look at
Speaker 1: that ship. So that's the point of representing said urban
Speaker 1: street culture. So no, I'm yes, I'm not with Tom.
Speaker 1: I'm upset if you feel like you should be able
Speaker 1: to carry that's why hip hop requires you to carry
Speaker 1: the burden of culture. Right. You may not have to
Speaker 1: carry it negatively, but you have to be it, like
Speaker 1: if you daylight. So you gotta be what it is
Speaker 1: you feel me. You don't gotta be criminals, but you
Speaker 1: got to be you know, whatever town you from. For sure,
Speaker 1: tribe was queens niggas to the death. For sure, straight
Speaker 1: up tell me that if nothing else this is this
Speaker 1: is the burl. And if you go on stage to
Speaker 1: tribe who don't wrap about crime, tribe called Quest, and
Speaker 1: you get in front of Q Tip prime, q tips face,
Speaker 1: not que Tip as a grown man who probably didn't
Speaker 1: lived in Beverly Hills at this point, and maybe this nigga,
Speaker 1: maybe even But if you like I fun queens, I think,
Speaker 1: how dare you because that because that again, it's one
Speaker 1: of those things that that comes with the burden of
Speaker 1: carrying street urban culture, even for positive group like tribe
Speaker 1: called Quest, all the way to a gangster rap group
Speaker 1: like the Dog Pan or Snoop, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: where they have to deal with the same fucking thing,
Speaker 1: where they have to you carry the burden of culture.
Speaker 1: I refused to can compare a Drake to a jay
Speaker 1: Z who literally got persecuted on the news every day
Speaker 1: Drug Dinner jay Z, that's drug returned rapper jay Z.
Speaker 1: You know, like people hated him forever. Snoop was the Cript,
Speaker 1: Like they rolled over his c d s see me
Speaker 1: for being from the community. He was from the street
Speaker 1: urban culture. They're like, how could you be proud to
Speaker 1: be a crip bitch because we are proud. We are
Speaker 1: proudly survived. All our friends and families is the homies
Speaker 1: we love where we come from. How could you go
Speaker 1: imagine somebody telling the military man, well, how could you
Speaker 1: be a soldier. It's like, oh, I fought from people, free,
Speaker 1: I foster, you can have your rights. Be I foss
Speaker 1: on my homies, didn't die. I foss on my homies.
Speaker 1: We could make money right here. Do you think we're
Speaker 1: fighting over Chinese food? Nigga's it's some kind of confusion
Speaker 1: that within the culture we are fighting over anything. Oh,
Speaker 1: we're fighting because we was playing pencils and blah blah blah. No,
Speaker 1: my homie got killed because somebody wasn't a part of
Speaker 1: the culture, didn't understand the relationship and killed him. And
Speaker 1: at that point that's like, oh, you know, gang banging
Speaker 1: is senseless violence. You know, if somebody get killed, you
Speaker 1: could just talk and resolved it. When they came in
Speaker 1: bomb the fucking towers was no, it wasn't no talking
Speaker 1: to na want to go to came out when they
Speaker 1: found came out, they didn't be like, you know, we
Speaker 1: need to get we need to get what's the name
Speaker 1: of that group, Peter that bonded Towers, that was responsible
Speaker 1: Tally banban. We need to sit to Tally Band as Americans,
Speaker 1: we need to max counter losses and we sit to
Speaker 1: tally Band down, or I'll Kida down and we have
Speaker 1: a peace meeting. So no other blood had to be
Speaker 1: so because send all the planes, because knock everything down,
Speaker 1: because mars down. Everybody work, work, work, work. Ain't no
Speaker 1: talks of peace, you know why, because that ain't the
Speaker 1: fucking world we live in. If you look in the
Speaker 1: biblical stories, nigger, it's owned as a war. It's a
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of war. It's a lot of wars.
Speaker 1: So again to keep trying to isolate this to just
Speaker 1: this street urban lifestyle and and even the colloquialists themselves
Speaker 1: that motherfucker's had to make for themselves because their life
Speaker 1: was such a challenge because of what they pray. It's
Speaker 1: hard for soldiers to come back and be regular Americans.
Speaker 1: If you really was getting busy people come back going
Speaker 1: through sh Yeah, come back up, and then you over
Speaker 1: here talking about you a real patriot to this mother
Speaker 1: fir motherfucking and killed thirty six Tally Band members with
Speaker 1: his bare hands and you over here talking about you're
Speaker 1: a real patriot because you gotta flag in your frontier.
Speaker 1: You some respect, act throne cousin name if you went
Speaker 1: over there and and fucked over them Tally band people.
Speaker 1: And that's how I feel about our community right where
Speaker 1: just because you're black, just because you're urban, right, because
Speaker 1: you're black, right, don't mean you gotta be one of
Speaker 1: them niggas. Just because you grew up in the streets,
Speaker 1: don't mean you gotta be one of them niggas. That
Speaker 1: message needs to be priest more. And that's what that's
Speaker 1: what I'm telling the time. You don't have to transform
Speaker 1: gangster into a positive title because it ain't positive and
Speaker 1: negative to real gangsters. If you're a real gangster, none
Speaker 1: of us were. That nigga is negative. He's only bad.
Speaker 1: Del dog rest is soul. Big. You certain niggas I've
Speaker 1: met throughout the years who are popular guy members, my
Speaker 1: boy Hods, O g Hons Greg shout out to too
Speaker 1: Little Hods for me being Hans Gray Street. They are
Speaker 1: some of the most positive people you'll never want to meet.
Speaker 1: They give you excellent advice. They will sit down with
Speaker 1: you and counsel. You see me, it's a it's a
Speaker 1: rumor going wrong. They only way people know. They don't
Speaker 1: people pay to be down. Yeah, they don't got to
Speaker 1: exploit nobody. What the fuck they want to be this snigger?
Speaker 1: Why would he have to make you pay him? You
Speaker 1: don't want to be him, you want him around. You're
Speaker 1: just silly enough to not understand that you are something
Speaker 1: that you ain't got to exploit the motherfucker's soul. They're
Speaker 1: gonna pay to be around him. They're gonna pay because
Speaker 1: they saw boys in the hood when they was a kid.
Speaker 1: And then Nika said, rolling crip, big you, he's a
Speaker 1: rolling sixty crip. They like him, they won't pay to
Speaker 1: be around him. Oh he needs to take money forever.
Speaker 1: You know them whole asked niggas paid to be around him.
Speaker 1: So why you can't understand regular people wanted to call
Speaker 1: him sells real niggas because I'm not a fraud. I
Speaker 1: want to be around a president, but I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: lie like I'm a fucking politician, but I'm not a
Speaker 1: fucking for me and you if you start lying, you
Speaker 1: basically are a politicians. There's a there's a positive structure
Speaker 1: politicians about lying to make you feel better. That by
Speaker 1: the way, y'all make people feel better with them. I mean,
Speaker 1: I feel you, but if you think but but if
Speaker 1: you but if but if like like even jay Z
Speaker 1: said on that neck and wrist, so he was like,
Speaker 1: y'all paying real money to buy fake watches? The irony, right,
Speaker 1: it's it's like, it's it's it's the same ship. Why
Speaker 1: are you paying? Why are you buying a fake watch?
Speaker 1: That's why they wear faked Grandma told me a long
Speaker 1: time ago. If no, they don't want to look cool,
Speaker 1: they want to look wealthy. Yeah, face, get wealthy, stop playing,
Speaker 1: stop want to be treated like a wealthy person. What
Speaker 1: you say, you you go go commit a crime basically, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but like in the in the interim, there's a positive
Speaker 1: incentive structure for taking things to face value. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: a positive incentive structure in place for people being content
Speaker 1: to take something at face value. Me and Charlotte Mayne
Speaker 1: getting into this, Me and Charlotte man get into this
Speaker 1: all the time. Charlotte Mayne think I'm like a super
Speaker 1: like like a like a because everybody every deal they announced,
Speaker 1: every money deal, I know it's a lie. M. I
Speaker 1: know it's not what they say. Every last money dealer
Speaker 1: is a motherfucking lie because I'm around niggas and I'm
Speaker 1: seeing it. I've seen it for years. All this money, niggas,
Speaker 1: all this money. Bit y'all lying. I see it. Y'a
Speaker 1: got some money, but y'all putting a lot on this
Speaker 1: ship because they're selling wealth to broke motherfucker's because they're like, sure,
Speaker 1: and I got money, and ye gangster to motherfucker's. And
Speaker 1: they're selling being a thug to motherfucker's and they're selling
Speaker 1: being a real nigger and motherfucker's and nigga's just buying.
Speaker 1: They're paying person or a month to stream it, and
Speaker 1: they want to be it, and they're gonna and they
Speaker 1: don't want to be. No, they do know they do
Speaker 1: with the credit for being. They don't want to be.
Speaker 1: They want to be just too cowardly to go out.
Speaker 1: They want the gold watch. They don't want to spend
Speaker 1: the ten grand. They don't want the best part about
Speaker 1: the gold watch. The best part about the gold watch
Speaker 1: is spending the ten grand. That's the thing niggas don't
Speaker 1: really get. That's the separation everybody could have a gold watch,
Speaker 1: but I spent ten for I spent ten for my role.
Speaker 1: Somebody gave you yours. Yeah, we got the same watch,
Speaker 1: but it's not the same because I spent ten for this.
Speaker 1: It's like a wealthy man who got blessed with wealth
Speaker 1: and the nickel who created as wealth in one lifetime.
Speaker 1: We are not the same. Champops left for you that
Speaker 1: this right here is self made. So I get it.
Speaker 1: I get I get the and again. I were just
Speaker 1: talking to Pete about this, which is another podcast right,
Speaker 1: which is all about how human beings have capitalized historically
Speaker 1: all fear and intellectual laziness. I was talking to my
Speaker 1: home girl, We're gonna get the funk out of here,
Speaker 1: and she was telling me that she felt she should
Speaker 1: be able to go to the store and take a
Speaker 1: bout old water for free without paying for it. I
Speaker 1: said why, She said, because God put water on the
Speaker 1: earth for all of us. It's a natural resource. It's
Speaker 1: for all of us. Is free. I said, I agree.
Speaker 1: I said, but do you know what you pay for it?
Speaker 1: She said, what you mean, what would I pay for it?
Speaker 1: I say, you pay for that. Some motherfucking body said,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to the springs myself and get the ship.
Speaker 1: I'm an make these bottle. I'm gonna spend the money
Speaker 1: to make these plastic bottles. I'm gonna scoop this ship
Speaker 1: up myself, put a little lid on it. Rapper, I'm
Speaker 1: going to have a truck drive from community to community
Speaker 1: to put it two minutes away from your house. That's
Speaker 1: what you pay for. I said, you can get free
Speaker 1: water right now, take your ads down to the springs
Speaker 1: with some buckets. Come back. Other than that, shut the
Speaker 1: kill that ship. Like we gotta stop with the bullshit.
Speaker 1: And I get it that maybe people not thinking. But
Speaker 1: the greatest thing, and that's what I'm saying, you should
Speaker 1: never and even all of those people feel me, that's complaining.
Speaker 1: You're lazy. The reason you don't want to go actually
Speaker 1: really be a real nigger because you know it takes work.
Speaker 1: The reason you don't want to actually be a game member,
Speaker 1: It actually take work. All the ships you want to
Speaker 1: claim it takes work. You actually are working on ship
Speaker 1: right now that you can claim. But you know why
Speaker 1: because you probably ain't working on ship because you know what,
Speaker 1: if I said, what are you in real life? The
Speaker 1: same nigga who just told me, well, gangster should be anything.
Speaker 1: I should be able to do this, You know I
Speaker 1: should be if I'm doing right things and fighting for
Speaker 1: my community and your fucking revolution. There, you're you're fucking
Speaker 1: you know, you're fucking great. Why why do you have
Speaker 1: to put that into a gangster like? Why would you
Speaker 1: do that to that title? Because so you could be
Speaker 1: so much more? Like would you rather be Tuckie or
Speaker 1: Martin Luther King? They know they won't. Nig it's just lazy,
Speaker 1: So they can't be because it wouldn't want to be either.
Speaker 1: Niggas wouldn't want to be either. Needs about it there
Speaker 1: and get fun Luther King. But you know the difference
Speaker 1: between See the problem is both of them take work. Well,
Speaker 1: being Martin Luther King take more work. It takes more work.
Speaker 1: You're kind of proving my point, Glass, It takes more problems,
Speaker 1: can take more everything, Glasses. You kind of proving my point. Though, Glasses,
Speaker 1: I'm not proving your point. It's easy, but it's still
Speaker 1: easier to assimilate the gangster culture because hip hop has
Speaker 1: made it that way. It's not it's not is there's
Speaker 1: a thousand Holly Wole movies about cowboys. Ain't about the
Speaker 1: bun people walking around him over with cowboy boots and horses.
Speaker 1: It's a million songs about nigga shootingigga. That only every nigga.
Speaker 1: There's a million films with hundreds of millions of dollars
Speaker 1: of film everybody. How many fact is it everybody not
Speaker 1: a rapper? How many ludicrous niggas? Is it? Everybody out
Speaker 1: around staying to you? But it's a motherfucker out a lot,
Speaker 1: like I'm a rapper. He got one soon, but you don't.
Speaker 1: After he wats Fast and Furious, think he was sucking
Speaker 1: Vin Diesel cool. I said, I guarantee you once the
Speaker 1: Fast and Furious ship drop, it was nigga's out there
Speaker 1: buying cars trying to be Vin Diesel or Paul Walker
Speaker 1: or whatever. I'm not mad at that fucking Paul Walker
Speaker 1: died trying to be fucking Fast and Furious, and he
Speaker 1: was in the gap there. But you bought the car
Speaker 1: and you tried to do it, so technically you put
Speaker 1: the work in. You didn't just like sit at home
Speaker 1: like you bought the controller. That motherfucker fast What you
Speaker 1: mean dry, that's I mean I'm asking by the cart
Speaker 1: the fast. If you go to have you want to
Speaker 1: be a gagster? Hold on, I got you, Pete, you
Speaker 1: want to be a gagster? Go come in a crime.
Speaker 1: Who this motherfucker? Go robber store. Watch what they do
Speaker 1: to you. Oh you won't get your wheel tested? You
Speaker 1: want to be a gangster? Oh robber store? You want
Speaker 1: to be a gangster? Go to somebody else community and
Speaker 1: be like, hey, you know what. Fuck y'all right here
Speaker 1: this is Brentwood Crip and have five of you and
Speaker 1: commit a crime. Break out one of the windows. You
Speaker 1: get the energy. You're looking for a brother, and that
Speaker 1: way you get to say it. But if you're not
Speaker 1: gonna commit a fucking crime with a group of men
Speaker 1: right to further your agenda, don't call yourself a gangster.
Speaker 1: And can I say one final thing? Squares civilians, normal people,
Speaker 1: law body citizens is the perfect word. Tax fans, citizens law,
Speaker 1: bodies all all of us square civilians, tax fairs, citizens
Speaker 1: law by the citizens. It's nothing wrong with doing the
Speaker 1: right thing. It's easy to do the fun up thing
Speaker 1: you just just do. It's not easy to do the wrong.
Speaker 1: It's not that's a lie, it's a lot, it's not.
Speaker 1: It's a lie. It's a lie. It's as easy to
Speaker 1: do the wrong thing as it is to do the
Speaker 1: right thing. It's not mad a bunch of life decisions.
Speaker 1: To do the right thing, it's easier or harder to
Speaker 1: do the wrong thing. It's hard. That's why it's only
Speaker 1: so many people that do the it's a little hard,
Speaker 1: That's why it's only this many work very hard. What
Speaker 1: is repenting for the Tell you something about this cripping.
Speaker 1: It is hard. Don't think it's it's simple because I
Speaker 1: make it look easy. It's not. I'm not not here
Speaker 1: crip because it looks hard or it looks very hard.
Speaker 1: I don't want my pointer you easier. It's easy to
Speaker 1: do the less stressful. It's less stressful when I walk outside.
Speaker 1: Don't tell yeah, but tell a person that want to
Speaker 1: be a crip to try to be me, and they're
Speaker 1: gonna be like, it's sucking, real hard to be TPJ
Speaker 1: because he already committed to a lifestyle. Even if he
Speaker 1: ain't committed to a lifestyle, you have the hood, Hey,
Speaker 1: try to be tp J or trying to be this crip.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying this. I'm not saying you could be
Speaker 1: a part of the temper center of the good people
Speaker 1: or the law of body people. But you could be
Speaker 1: a regular nigga flipping burgers and McDonald's right now. Easy.
Speaker 1: It's easy to be a regular law body citizen. They
Speaker 1: already set the rules out for you. There's no conflict rules.
Speaker 1: You just do what you're suppsed to do. Simple. The
Speaker 1: problem is people want to be this other ship because
Speaker 1: it's hard. That's why. No, somebody I said that we
Speaker 1: need to celebrate the law body citizen more. Nobody want
Speaker 1: to celebrate that that you're That's the point of it.
Speaker 1: When do we celebrate, like, okay, we need to celebrate
Speaker 1: point guards. You shoot forty from the field. That the
Speaker 1: greatest guys ever. Why we celebrate Michael Jordan's We can
Speaker 1: celebrate johnsy Billups. John Billips is our guy. You shoot
Speaker 1: that blistering thirty percent from the field three place some
Speaker 1: great defense. No, you know why nobody in life celebrates
Speaker 1: the C prested. When your kid come on time with
Speaker 1: that C plus bright, I want to see you celebrating.
Speaker 1: It's a good I'm putting on your put it on
Speaker 1: your refrigerator with the magnet. C plus is average celebration.
Speaker 1: Pizza hunt, Can I say this? Can I say that
Speaker 1: though I am a person who also does not believe
Speaker 1: everybody no no, no, no no, I'm I'm a person
Speaker 1: that that don't believe everybody meant to be great. So
Speaker 1: that's also why I said earlier, I'm not an assimilator,
Speaker 1: so like, yeah, I might see that c plus but
Speaker 1: also it's some people that just terrible at school but time.
Speaker 1: But my point is this, I don't expect everybody to
Speaker 1: be me, and I think in this generation everybody wants
Speaker 1: to be like somebody else. And the day we accept that,
Speaker 1: that that we are outliers us for on this call
Speaker 1: right now, all outliers right. We're the anomalies today. We're
Speaker 1: not the norm. That's the whole reason why we have
Speaker 1: in this conversation because the norm is about assimilation and
Speaker 1: wanted to be like, what is the thing that's most marketable?
Speaker 1: I guarantee if there's a new rap, even Jack Harlow right,
Speaker 1: guarantee the man get a bus cut tomorrow, uh and
Speaker 1: fucking put a plus sign in his head. You're gonna
Speaker 1: see a bunch of fucking goof He's running around with
Speaker 1: a buzz cut and a plus sign in their head
Speaker 1: because they want to assimilate. I just want to assimilate.
Speaker 1: It's just really what this generation is. They want to assimilate.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think they want to assimilate culture.
Speaker 1: I think they want to fra the culture bro because
Speaker 1: I think they want championship rings without ever playing in
Speaker 1: games they want. Yeah, they want the spoils without thee.
Speaker 1: But in their mind, and ain't nothing wrong with whining
Speaker 1: the replica and in your mind you want the ring.
Speaker 1: That's the no. The point is, I'm gonna tell you
Speaker 1: why that's not true in their minding. There's something wrong
Speaker 1: with when the replica. That's why they lie and say
Speaker 1: it's a real ring. That's the problem. If Niggas was
Speaker 1: walking around like, I'm not really against it, I'm just
Speaker 1: acting like this. Yeah he's fucking cool. He's like, yeah,

Speaker 1: don't jobs, don't not ask for a resume and do
