Growing up in Queen Run dmc L 209 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: like those were like the blueprint, like you know, loving 210 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 1: hip hop and then you know, probably first seeing the 211 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: source that you could like have a magazine it then 212 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: the first time you wanted to like because you know, 213 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: because because being a fan of the culture and because 214 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of people can watch basketball. There's 215 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: not a lot of people who can cover basketball, you 216 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So you know, it started was 217 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: sports with me. My father wanted me to be a 218 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: baseball player because he is dream was to play baseball. 219 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 1: So he actually wanted to name me Roberto Clemented. You 220 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:12,719 Speaker 1: could have been Roberto you know this black and my 221 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: mom is Ecuadorian and green, just like he said. Elliot 222 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: Wilson Jr. Like I was in Franks And so I 223 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: grew up playing sports a lot of baseball growing up. 224 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: And then by the time I got fifteen sixty and 225 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: I was like, I'm not good enough to like go pro, 226 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: Like I'm good, but I ain't outstanding and ship. Um, 227 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: so I looked at sports writing, remember, like going Wanner Wolf. 228 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: Let's go to the video tape and how Yeah. I 229 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: got attracted to that. I was like, oh, maybe I 230 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: could do that, could be a sports report, I could 231 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: be a sports writer. Um. And then when you know, 232 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: I started losing more interest in sports. The music and 233 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: seeing that the music could be documented, you know, just 234 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: excited me. And I was like, that really was my 235 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: only career goal. I told you only my first career 236 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: goal was to be music out of the source. Well, 237 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 1: I wanted to be I wanted to get all the 238 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: albums before anybody else got the albums, and I wanted 239 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: to give the mix out. That's my only dream. So 240 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: the so the social was already copping prior to you. Yes, 241 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 1: okay I didn't, but they were. They weren't as big 242 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: as I thought they were. But but at the time, 243 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: because I had Ego Trip, I had an independent thing 244 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: going on with Jenkings. Yeah, so we didn't we thought 245 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: the source. Once they got national, they were so far ahead, 246 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: you know, and I was and again I just fell 247 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: in love, I thot because it was the first like 248 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 1: I want again. I wanted that position. I saw Reginald C. 249 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: Dennis with the shades and like the whole thing of 250 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: like getting access to the music. That's the whole thing 251 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: about the streaming era. All fans not get all this 252 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: access to the music. Whatever DSP they signed up to. 253 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: And you know it was like Nory, I got you 254 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: remember when your album was rolling out? Your album, so 255 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: album they sent like a four tracks, yeah, and so 256 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: I hadn't even before that because I was just sent 257 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: it to the lab, to the pub, but this department 258 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: sent it to the magazine. So at n R I 259 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: think I had Body of the Trunk, I believe. So 260 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: I had Body of the Trunk, had super Dog. Yeah, 261 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: Like this is amazing, Like this is like Dory, Like 262 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: like I want to take it from the beginning because 263 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: obviously all of y'all are from this like the switcher 264 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: house movement, right, So in the beginning, because um, I 265 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: heard you used to write uh pepsie letters and things 266 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: like that. But in the beginning, how did you get started? 267 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: How how did you find your love for the music? 268 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: Me and come in and we grew up together on 269 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: the same street, I know, in my whole life. We 270 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: both was introduced to hip hop around the same age 271 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: and around the same time, through the through the same era. 272 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: Especially of Texas artists that inspired us, you know, because 273 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: at that time there wasn't if we look on the 274 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: TV or turn on the radio, there wasn't a lot 275 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: of people from where we're from that we're professional in music. Yeah. 276 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: Even then, it was like, I when you're living in 277 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: Houston and you see, like you turn on the other 278 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: you turn on TV, whatever you see kind of like 279 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: how people treat rapp about sometimes we always kind of 280 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: felt like we got the short into this t we're 281 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: being kind of Houston like maybe being there, we're so 282 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 1: centrally located at the South, at the bottom of the Midwest. 283 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: You know, we're in the South, but we're far west 284 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: on the South, so we're kind of removed from kind 285 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 1: of what goes on sometimes in Florida, Georgia. Yeah, so 286 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, although we have a lot of similarities, 287 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: it was like, man, you know, we suffer part of 288 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: the South, like said he said that he considered he 289 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,439 Speaker 1: considered that the South like the Texas because it's different 290 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 1: time zone, right, right? Do you do you agree with 291 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: that statement or that just I mean personally, I never 292 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: looked at the time zone is being a reason for 293 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: where being in the South because there's plenty of people 294 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 1: in the Central time zone. Is you know, Chicago's the 295 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: central time zone and it ain't south, but you know, 296 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 1: it's just it's just more the southwest. But even then, 297 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,880 Speaker 1: you know, California is the southwest because Texas seems so big, 298 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 1: it feels west coast. Yeah. And the one thing that 299 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: gets lost to is it inside of Texas, we all 300 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: got our own culture. So Houston and Dallas is a 301 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 1: lot different. And if you add in San Antonio and Austin, 302 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: all four of them places are four distinct different cultures 303 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: within Texas. Some of the stuff we do share, you know, 304 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: some of the same thing only for sound pop top 305 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: Well I didn't know. I like God damn it. But 306 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 1: as far as I remember, you was the first person 307 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: not only ever sent in Toronto, but sate from He's 308 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: from Toronto, so from Toronto. Yeah, I didn't. I wasn't 309 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: from the same right for you. So there's a there's 310 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 1: a lot of history and this is kind of probably 311 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 1: the only place where we can talk about it and 312 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: it would make sense. But before me like you gotta 313 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: he definitely have to shout out like what I call 314 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: like the Holy Trinity which is a female MC named 315 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: Mischi Me.

I'm like, 599 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: I'm telling you she's dope. I'm thinking Caribbean. That's good. 600 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 1: That's a good point.
