Speaker 3: we ain't bullshit, you know what I'm saying, Like, you
Speaker 3: know this this shit real for me.
Speaker 2: Originally, Traper Died was a mixtape, yeah, and so like
Speaker 2: now this is a full flat job.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because I just wanted, you know, just to make
Speaker 3: it the best body of work. You know, when I
Speaker 3: started out, and it's like, you know, I'm you know,
Speaker 3: I don't. I'm a mixtape. It's something I did. But
Speaker 3: by the way, when I did Trap or Die, that
Speaker 3: shit changed my whole fucking life because I all remember
Speaker 3: sitting in the studio with Trick Daddy and ja Zy
Speaker 3: Fei and them telling me not to put a mixtape out.
Speaker 3: I'm in the streets, nigga be like, you know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying, so and them telling me how to put
Speaker 3: it out. So I put the tape out, and that
Speaker 3: shit changed my whole life. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: I'm saying, and had not put it out, I probably
Speaker 3: fucking been dead to incarcerated anyway, because that's what was
Speaker 3: going on. But I believed in myself enough to put
Speaker 3: that shit out and it was a It was a
Speaker 3: mixtape I had maybe like twenty something songs, and niggas
Speaker 3: ask me all the time, like, yo, you know what
Speaker 3: kept me going? Like every bar, every verse. If you
Speaker 3: listen to that mixtape, you know you're looking at a
Speaker 3: superstar in the boots. But in the back of my mind,
Speaker 3: I'm like, I got to say the hardest shit ever
Speaker 3: because if they don't feel me, I'm not gonna make it.
Speaker 3: You see what I'm saying. So every bar, every line
Speaker 3: was like you know what I mean, like real life shit,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean? And that's why I felt
Speaker 3: like people felt it so much, and that shit with
Speaker 3: it was so crazy. I had to start putting out
Speaker 3: fucking the DVD because people didn't know what the fuck
Speaker 3: I looked like. What I'm saying. So it would come
Speaker 3: to the shows, a niggas stay those stage and I'm
Speaker 3: doing myself. What fuck is this? Nigga? Tell me, nigga
Speaker 3: ride the shit, you know what I mean. So now
Speaker 3: you know, just looking back, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: twenty twenty high, So I just think that was the
Speaker 3: best shit I ever did. And to come back now
Speaker 3: and do what I'm doing as far as TRAPA dot three,
Speaker 3: I'm definitely in a better place as a man, you
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. And it's the big homie because
Speaker 3: I'm watching what these little niggas is doing. I'm like,
Speaker 3: and if you're the big homie on the block, you
Speaker 3: gotta tell the niggas how to really get money. You
Speaker 3: gotta tell the niggas how to really grin, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean. You can't just sit back and let
Speaker 3: a nigga bump his head, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: So you know that got that she got knowledge in it.
Speaker 3: That shit got real, you know what I mean, It's
Speaker 3: real life, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: And your music always been like like like preaking without preaching, right,
Speaker 2: like you could school somebody without like trying to you know,
Speaker 2: lose them because you know, the young generation sometimes you
Speaker 2: teach them too much and why they were So how
Speaker 2: how did you develop like that motivate you feel.
Speaker 3: Like like it was crazy? I learned from being around
Speaker 3: older niggas. Man, all my big home, all the niggas
Speaker 3: died of fun with when I was in the street
Speaker 3: was older than me, but them niggas would ask me
Speaker 3: for advice all the fucking time, Like, yo, nigga, you
Speaker 3: older than me? Like what? But but you know, my
Speaker 3: thought process is real, you know what I'm saying, because
Speaker 3: where I came from is like, you know, if you
Speaker 3: fuck up, you're gonna either be in a plying box
Speaker 3: yours going to the penitential. And I made decisions before
Speaker 3: that cost people, you know, time out of their life.
Speaker 3: And you know, because that was the decision as a boss,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. So like when I got
Speaker 3: in the music game, I just applied the same thought process,
Speaker 3: like it's real. So my real, that's who I am.
Speaker 3: If you saw me ten years ago, I was looking
Speaker 3: just like this, went around doing I had another product,
Speaker 3: by the way, you know what I'm saying. But that's
Speaker 3: who I was. So It's like when I got in
Speaker 3: this game, it was easy for me to talk to
Speaker 3: them because they understand, like they want to hear a
Speaker 3: nigga tell you how to be a millionaire and still
Speaker 3: be who you are and not sell yourself short just
Speaker 3: to get some money. Like you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: we stand for more than that. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: You put me in a room, and niggas don't really
Speaker 3: understand that. Nigga, I run a fortune five hundred company.
Speaker 3: Talk about on the fucking Boots mobile phone. You feel
Speaker 3: I'm saying, and that's what you're doing when you were
Speaker 3: a hustle. So being this game, if you really like,
Speaker 3: look at what's going on. This is the new streets
Speaker 3: and niggas is making this is what it is. You
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying and and and it's like and
Speaker 3: that's easy for me because I happen to know a
Speaker 3: little bit about that.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: So now it's just like when I'm talking to niggas,
Speaker 3: it's real. It's like, no nigga can do that, but
Speaker 3: dig this though.
Speaker 1: That logo was that on the snow map.
Speaker 3: You have to do it, man, you have to do it.
Speaker 3: It's a business man.
Speaker 2: In the school. Yeah, like why people think that that's
Speaker 2: that man, that's a coke man.
Speaker 3: Yea. I'm gonna tell you the end this ship. It
Speaker 3: was cool when it was cool. When it was cool,
Speaker 3: motherfucker started fit seeing how powerful you really are, you
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. That's when they try to come
Speaker 3: with the funk ship. Me and sammue L Jackson talk
Speaker 3: about this all the time, real ship hold we talk
Speaker 3: about all you know, your real talk about all the time.
Speaker 3: And it's like and because when he done my documentary,
Speaker 3: you know you're real. But it was cool until you
Speaker 3: until motherfuckers started really seeing the power you have. You
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, because you represent people that's being
Speaker 3: demonized and told that they ain't gonna never be ship.
Speaker 3: That's what I told my whole life. That'sh it fuewed
Speaker 3: me so much to be who I am today is ridiculous,
Speaker 3: you feel what I'm saying. So it was cool when
Speaker 3: it was a cool. Thing. When they start seeing you
Speaker 3: having this power, when you're able to talk to these
Speaker 3: people and they're really listening, that's when it becomes some shit.
Speaker 3: We got a band because you think about it, you
Speaker 3: get any president he can't get any president, any powerful
Speaker 3: motherfucking the way. You can't get them in an arena
Speaker 3: and have sixty thousand people with cite every word for
Speaker 3: thirty minutes. You know what I'm saying, that's my power,
Speaker 3: you feel I'm saying, you can put them together. I'm
Speaker 3: good and you can put them together, and you can
Speaker 3: you can make them, you know, think the way they're
Speaker 3: supposed to think. So that's when they started doing all
Speaker 3: the fun shit. But it's good because I had been
Speaker 3: through so much. I was already ready for the shit,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. So it's like when they
Speaker 3: tried to ban it, that's cool, but y'all gonna make
Speaker 3: the shit even bigger now because now y'all making it
Speaker 3: something that we got to stand up for. That's why
Speaker 3: schools they banded. In schools they banded it, you know
Speaker 3: a couple of places. But you know, that just really
Speaker 3: showed me some funck shit, because you know, if it's
Speaker 3: a fucking snowman and fucking you know, Lily White, fucking
Speaker 3: idahole in real life, you won't have shit to say.
Speaker 3: But it's this nigga running around atl you know what

Speaker 3: ain't nobody I can't sit down and talk to so
Speaker 3: you just treat me like a nigga, you feel I'm saying.
Speaker 3: So that's where they fucked up, and that ship represented hope.
Speaker 3: That shit represented the struggle, and that shi all started
Speaker 3: from a chain. I remember going to get the chain.
Speaker 3: I wanted my jewel. I was like, you want the
Speaker 3: ice style snowman nigga said. I was crazy that I

Speaker 1: I heard him say, listen, this is the craziest ship
Speaker 1: in the world. I heard you say this on tax
Speaker 1: Stone podcast, you said that when.
Speaker 2: The street nigga tries to rap, right and if he
Speaker 2: don't make it.
Speaker 1: It's rough, it's over.
Speaker 5: He looks.
Speaker 3: Listen, you know how.
Speaker 2: Many real niggas that's real niggas, but they want to
Speaker 2: rap just because they're like, there's other real.
Speaker 1: Niggas rapping, but they don't have no skills.
Speaker 4: So when they don't make it, or if they don't
Speaker 4: make it, they they look because police.
Speaker 3: Know you right right right record, this is so crazy.
Speaker 3: I'll be watching these niggas but they be doing on
Speaker 3: the Instagram. I just be like, yo, my man, like
Speaker 3: I just don't out in themselves. I mean, it's crazy,
Speaker 3: but it's because I feel like it ain't a lot
Speaker 3: of morals being set, not at all, you know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying. That's why I feel like, you know, I
Speaker 3: got to really play the big homie role because you
Speaker 3: just got to know, like some ship just ain't cool.
Speaker 3: You know, you gotta be either you're gonna be solid
Speaker 3: on you. And that's the thing, even when I was
Speaker 3: doing my thing, you know what I'm saying, you got
Speaker 3: to really have passion, drive and determination to really pull
Speaker 3: that ship off. Because I went from being a nigga
Speaker 3: that was standing in the club, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: or going to a jay Z party and being a nigga,
Speaker 3: you know, down in my own section popping you know,
Speaker 3: one hundred and two hundred bottles, just actually standing where
Speaker 3: he's at, you know what I mean, and having real conversations,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So I had to grind
Speaker 3: my way from that all the way to that point.
Speaker 3: But path to that, of course, but you learn a
Speaker 3: lot of shit. You know what I'm saying, You're gonna
Speaker 3: lose a couple of people. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: You're gonna see people. It was a lot of yeah,
Speaker 3: but it's good because, like I tell people all the time,
Speaker 3: hadn't I've been through all the ship I've been into
Speaker 3: the streets, I would never fuck with this rap shit
Speaker 3: because this ship is different.
Speaker 1: So describe deep in the streets making that decision that
Speaker 1: I'm gonna rap. Oh yeah, it's cold Turkey. I had
Speaker 1: to go to war a couple of your boys.
Speaker 3: Like nigga, I had to go to war all type shit.
Speaker 3: I'm being for real. It went down my nigga like you,
Speaker 3: because niggas everybody weren't cool with that, So I had
Speaker 3: to move my whole neighborhood up. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: I about like four houses beside each other and shit
Speaker 3: everywhere I went. I got three four tour buses like
Speaker 3: it was real for a long time, you know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying. But I still because I'm still what.
Speaker 1: People looking at you like you sell now.
Speaker 3: I mean, you changing and as you get you know,
Speaker 3: you know, And I hate the word fame because I
Speaker 3: was famous at the Ammacor. I was a superstar there,
Speaker 3: So I don't give a fuck, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: But like it, shit started to get better for you then,
Speaker 3: you know, because you already dealing with real niggas. I
Speaker 3: tell niggas that every day when I go through my soul,
Speaker 3: that's the first forty eight crowd. That's that real shit.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, real day, County, fuck with
Speaker 3: me real for a lot of don't put it in
Speaker 3: real work. The niggas know me like you know what
Speaker 3: I mean. I just left for a lot of deal,
Speaker 3: like very comfortable. These are my niggas. We know each
Speaker 3: other for decades, you know what I'm saying. But you know,
Speaker 3: just with this shit, it's just it just get tricky
Speaker 3: because it's almost like it ain't really a lot of
Speaker 3: morals in this business, so you have to bring your
Speaker 3: morals with you.
Speaker 1: No moral right, So it's like moral business.
Speaker 5: Just go for it.
Speaker 1: You gotta have a strong you're strong, and you.
Speaker 3: Gotta be and you gotta be and you got to
Speaker 3: be solid. You gotta let a nigga know you ain't
Speaker 3: play with in real life, you know what I'm saying. Like,
Speaker 3: you know, you could be as famous as you want
Speaker 3: to be, but I know these people and they loved
Speaker 3: me for a lot of different reasons. But just going
Speaker 3: through that whole grind coming from you know that, to
Speaker 3: being where I was, I had to go cold turkey on.
Speaker 3: It took a lot of discipline, man, a lot of discipline.
Speaker 1: Because that's a lot of money, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. So it's like, what's your
Speaker 2: first rap check? Like when you first got it, was
Speaker 2: you like it's worth it? Or you were still thinking about.
Speaker 3: First real rap check? The nigga call me up shoutside
Speaker 3: the Big John planning. He called me, I'm on the Yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm doing I'm doing. You know, my souls and ship.
Speaker 3: So I'm, you know, running around bag money. So he's like, yo,
Speaker 3: I got this, uh you know, you got the publishing
Speaker 3: deal done, lawyer got everything done. So I'm in chicagoing
Speaker 3: about to hop on a jet. This nigga come running
Speaker 3: down the runway like I got you you know, he
Speaker 3: was trying to give me the check. So I ain't
Speaker 3: never I ain't never had a check in my life,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. They give me a check
Speaker 3: for all these all these you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: That's real. I looked at this ship folded up and
Speaker 3: gave it to him. I was like, well, ship, will
Speaker 3: you just hold on to it because because I don't
Speaker 3: know what to do with it, you knowe what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: So I gave it them. And it's just so crazy
Speaker 3: because they happened with my first Depth Jam check as well.
Speaker 3: Nigga I gave I got my Depth Jam check and
Speaker 3: had to call la read eight nine, ten months later
Speaker 3: and asking them could they read furnish the check because
Speaker 3: I never can't right, So they like they sitting around
Speaker 3: like how the fuck you mind all these calls? I
Speaker 3: was like, look, with my own money, so I didn't
Speaker 3: even touch that ship. You know what I'm saying, Even
Speaker 3: with the you know, the publicing situations, I had to
Speaker 3: call this dude and I just say, hey, man, my
Speaker 3: account is telling me that the check is no longer good. Yeah,
Speaker 3: because you give it to me. She said, Man, you
Speaker 3: mean to tell me it's been a fucking year and
Speaker 3: a half. You look at.
Speaker 1: But not even on no boardshit.
Speaker 3: I'm saying. All that to say is because you know
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. You're talking to You're on the street
Speaker 3: nigga who just you know, really trying to figure the
Speaker 3: world out, but doesn't really know a lot about business.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. But then when I started
Speaker 3: applying business skills to what I learned before, you all
Speaker 3: to make sense, right, you know what I'm saying. You
Speaker 3: know what?
Speaker 2: The dealest thing about like, you know, selling drugs is
Speaker 2: when you when you get out the money, it's the thrill, right,
Speaker 2: It's just a thriller. You you know, whatever however you
Speaker 2: do it. You're sitting in the car. You don't know
Speaker 2: if this nigga, the police right and rap really truly
Speaker 2: does give you that thrill.
Speaker 1: Man, It's crazy.
Speaker 3: It's crazy you say that because it's like I used
Speaker 3: to sit down and think to myself, like, what the
Speaker 3: fuck I know him better than this? Well, what can
Speaker 3: I do to still be me?
Speaker 1: And when you say this and talking about just.
Speaker 3: You know, just street ship here, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: because you're watching what's going on, you seeing a nigga mentality.
Speaker 3: You know, we're growing up, you know, you think the
Speaker 3: world is your neighborhood, Like you don't know you can
Speaker 3: go to fucking France and London and Canada and all
Speaker 3: this shit like you don't even know, Like you think
Speaker 3: the corner store and it's like and the way I
Speaker 3: grew up, nigga, it was real like me, like you
Speaker 3: couldn't go you can't go across the street. It was
Speaker 3: a whole nother gang over there. You couldn't go to
Speaker 3: the store. So it's two stores, one store over here,
Speaker 3: one stove over here. You go over there, your ass
Speaker 3: walked up over his own. So you think that's the
Speaker 3: world and you're sitting around watching what people doing. He
Speaker 3: was like, damn okay. But in my mind, just like
Speaker 3: I'm bigger than all that. So when I started just
Speaker 3: sitting back and just watching, you know, with music, I
Speaker 3: was very passionate about music. But when I really started
Speaker 3: seeing that it was real, was I was going, and
Speaker 3: I was I was putting my money into niggas, you
Speaker 3: see what I'm saying. So I had to. I had
Speaker 3: a record label, and the niggas was street niggas before.
Speaker 3: That's how I started. I had a record label, you
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. The hood, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: So everybody else, your first rap name was young Jay
Speaker 2: Little Jack.
Speaker 3: That's when they called me a damn car. So you
Speaker 3: were the one fun of the other rapper, right. And
Speaker 3: then so one of my artists he got killed and
Speaker 3: we got a murder charge, and the other nigga got
Speaker 3: this and.
Speaker 2: That and that.
Speaker 3: So I got all this fucking studio equipment and I
Speaker 3: ain't got no artists. So it's like then the money
Speaker 3: getting tight, you know what I'm saying. I was like, See,
Speaker 3: my man was like, sit, you might well give it
Speaker 3: a shod, bro. You're the realist nigga, and that's real shit.
Speaker 3: And I just started on the fucking around. But my
Speaker 3: whole thing was how I knew it was gonna be
Speaker 3: great for me is because I feel like like I
Speaker 3: go hard if i'm into something, I'm just solid. If
Speaker 3: I fuck with you, I fuck with you. If we're
Speaker 3: doing something, I'm gonna get that shit one hundred and
Speaker 3: eighty percent keep twenty for myself. So I always knew
Speaker 3: I had a niche, but I just had to figure
Speaker 3: out how to get people to understand where I was
Speaker 3: coming from. So a lot of the shit that I
Speaker 3: was saying was too real. So I would say shit
Speaker 3: because it was real to me. And as I started
Speaker 3: against successful, it just started causing me problems in the
Speaker 3: street cause nigga, like, Yo, why are you while you
Speaker 3: saying that? While yeah, like you really dry stitching. But
Speaker 3: I'm like, nigga, that's my life, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: I'm not a company. I can't talk about building no
Speaker 3: motherfucker house. Nigga, I'm not a mechanic. I don't know
Speaker 3: about that shit. I know about this. So it just
Speaker 3: was causing, you know, just a lot of friction. But
Speaker 3: you know, I just had to stand my ground and
Speaker 3: stay solid. But at the same time, just coming into
Speaker 3: that it just, you know, it just made it real
Speaker 3: because I started singing, you know, because even now you
Speaker 3: go out to the club, everybody got cameras and shit,
Speaker 3: you know it should be times nigga, if you took
Speaker 3: a picture in the club while we was in there,
Speaker 3: it was gonna beat your ass, take your care, you
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, because like theirs do that, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean, So now you see it. But
Speaker 3: it went from that to being you know, just come
Speaker 3: like I might walk through one twelve or visits and
Speaker 3: people be like, yo, jeez, I fuck with your music.
Speaker 1: Man was a club, so it.
Speaker 3: Was you know, fuck with your music, and I'm just
Speaker 3: like all right. So it started feeling like people was
Speaker 3: paying people to say that shi it to me because
Speaker 3: I'm like, there's no way. Now you know.
Speaker 2: The creation we were taught we will grow up. We
Speaker 2: grew up to avoid cameras. When you hustling on the street,
Speaker 2: you suitably avoid camera, and you become a rapper for
Speaker 2: you to be like comfortable with cameras.
Speaker 1: It's crazy, Like I always.
Speaker 2: Know a real street nigga when I look at their
Speaker 2: first interviews and then niggas like, you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: niggas he shot shot, He's a real one right here.
Speaker 1: And I always knew that about you in the beginning
Speaker 1: of like you know, what I mean.
Speaker 3: Yo, It was so hard to do interviews because they
Speaker 3: will ask you about real shit, right, and I'd be
Speaker 3: like and about right, But but I had to you know,
Speaker 3: I'm you know, I've been in interrogation rooms plenty of times.
Speaker 3: I get ship up out of me. I will talk
Speaker 3: circles all around there. But it was like, you know,
Speaker 3: they would ask me real questions, you know, double legsels.
Speaker 3: So what it was like when you you know what
Speaker 3: I mean, right, you know what I'm saying. So you're
Speaker 3: doing radio interviews, It's like, Yo, this this street ship.
Speaker 3: I can't talk about this ship, you know, on air
Speaker 3: or in this magazine for you to have a story
Speaker 3: and me to look crazy, like nah, nigga's I gotta
Speaker 3: die with this ship, you know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 3: this is forever, you know what I mean. So it
Speaker 3: took me a while to kind of just you know,
Speaker 3: like warm up to that, cause it was like, okay, cool.
Speaker 3: And then when niggas stop asking me because I don't
Speaker 3: want to think about it being my nigga, Like it's
Speaker 3: all up there. If you ask me some ignorant shit,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna give your ignoran answer. I'm not an ignorant nigga.
Speaker 3: You can't tell me that you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: Ain't nobody from where I'm from did the ship I did.
Speaker 3: And that's because I'm smart like that, because everything I
Speaker 3: think about it is.
Speaker 1: It's strategic in a street way particular. Right, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: keep the honey right now.
Speaker 2: I sold cocaine since eleven years old. Since eleven years old,
Speaker 2: I saw cocaine by mistake a nigga.
Speaker 4: The nigga gave me a tennis ball, said, listen, listen,
Speaker 4: young nigga, Karriens right there.
Speaker 2: Yes, it was right, And so I can really tell
Speaker 2: like there's only two people in this whole industry that
Speaker 2: I think so more drugs.
Speaker 1: Right right, right right, and that's Jay z.
Speaker 5: R.
Speaker 3: For some reason, I know you holding is ill too,
Speaker 3: because I'll be like, I'll be a whole bout some ship.
Speaker 3: Then I hear some balls, I'd be like, all right,
Speaker 3: I'd be like, Yo, this nigga, I feel.
Speaker 1: Like I saw more than you.
Speaker 2: I'm just sorry I'm keeping it out there, throwing it
Speaker 2: out this my nigga.
Speaker 3: He know that he might.
Speaker 2: I smoked him the other day.
Speaker 1: But y'all, yo, you was moving them things.
Speaker 3: But that nigga. You know what I respect about Jado
Speaker 3: is he's so far a move but he still can
Speaker 3: you know, ship. But see that's what it's all because
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, these niggas really, you know, Lightweight,
Speaker 3: you know, got it easy because i ain't even started
Speaker 3: talking about the new ship. I'm still digging in with
Speaker 3: my memory, you know what I'm saying. I'm still playing
Speaker 3: from you know what happened. I haven't talked about, you know,
Speaker 3: none of my successor you know, places I'm able to
Speaker 3: go and the things I'm able to do. Like I
Speaker 3: don't really get into that because it's like, you know,
Speaker 3: that's my life. But if you want to hear about
Speaker 3: the time that you know, I didn't think it was
Speaker 3: going to be all good and I figured that ship
Speaker 3: out because you know, to be in the streets, you
Speaker 3: gotta you gotta really, you know, you gotta really think
Speaker 3: to be a boss, you know what I'm saying, because
Speaker 3: it's real, like you're playing a real chess games. Never
Speaker 3: check us, you know what I mean, chess, So you
Speaker 3: gotta think like that. So you know, just coming from
Speaker 3: that whole element of it and coming into the rap
Speaker 3: game and all that. It's just like it's all the
Speaker 3: same ship. So you put the pieces together and that's
Speaker 3: how you move and really be a boss. So you know,
Speaker 3: like when you hear niggas like Jay say certain ship,
Speaker 3: you gotta really know that nigga like, oh yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 3: that makes a lot of sense, you know what I'm saying. So,
Speaker 3: you know, and I love to see that.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 3: I love to be around cats that you can really
Speaker 3: you know, just be a sponge off of that really
Speaker 3: did it because even for him, like his business ship
Speaker 3: is fucking maculim. But you got to know that came
Speaker 3: from his other job. It didn't come from rap. It's
Speaker 3: a nigga from Brooklyn, you feel me, and the same
Speaker 3: thing from George. I go to fucking you know, New
Speaker 3: York just left. They give me real love, you know
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. They treat me like I'm good. They
Speaker 3: give you real love, you know what I'm saying. And
Speaker 3: that's because they respect, you know what I'm saying, your hustle.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. They respect your moves.
Speaker 1: Why the hustles? Yeah yeah, yeah, anywhere they're gonna respect that.
Speaker 3: But it's so kind of food gazing now because you
Speaker 3: know a nigga you know, like it's hard to believe
Speaker 3: them now because it's like it's so much so you
Speaker 3: don't know who to believe, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: I pride myself on being a real leader. Offensive, Yeah, leader,
Speaker 3: though you know, if it wasn't this and we had
Speaker 3: to do something else, I'm gonna figure it out for us.
Speaker 3: We're gonna eat you know what I'm saying. With me,
Speaker 3: We're gonna get some money, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: So now, geez right, I used to see you and
Speaker 2: it used to almost feel like you didn't want to
Speaker 2: fuck with the game at all, like music, like it
Speaker 2: felt like not like being a part of the industry.
Speaker 2: And still I'm gonna tell you where I think I've
Speaker 2: seen the change. After you had caught the case and
Speaker 2: you came home, you just you just seem more relaxed.
Speaker 2: You seem like you enjoyed things better. You started, you
Speaker 2: started doing more, and I started coming out. Did I
Speaker 2: assess that right?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Man? Because you know what the motherfuckers did and
Speaker 3: how they handled me and how they treated me.
Speaker 1: The police.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say it, how they handled me. It is
Speaker 3: like I'm on tour. Some ship happened, I'm not there.
Speaker 3: You followed me to two states, I'm in two cities.
Speaker 3: Over followed me from from Oakland to uh L a
Speaker 3: last show of tour. We're supposed to be popping bottle celebrating.
Speaker 3: You got ready to detectives and a hundred offices at
Speaker 3: my bus to get me off. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: And by the way, every time we get to something
Speaker 2: deep podcast Wilson, Yeah right, they hate this man.
Speaker 3: No, it was just, you know, it was just that
Speaker 3: was my to be honest with you, being locked up
Speaker 3: out there, that was my first uns. Yeah, I heard
Speaker 3: how I was in there. I mean it was we
Speaker 3: put its way. It was about two and a half
Speaker 3: three weeks, but it was a long two man three weeks.
Speaker 3: Let me tell you why I thought that I was
Speaker 3: being detained for the next day, right because one of
Speaker 3: my man's had Yeah, but my man had I'm assault rifle.
Speaker 3: So that's what they, you know, took us down for.
Speaker 3: So I'm ready to pay everybody's bond to get us
Speaker 3: out because this ain't my homies, this ain't my shooters.
Speaker 3: These are my employees, my bus driver, my camera guy,
Speaker 3: my assistant, you know what I mean. People like that.
Speaker 3: So these ain't like, you know, street niggas with me.
Speaker 3: But I'm thinking we all locked up for the assault
Speaker 3: rifle that my man you know, left on the bus
Speaker 3: because he got actually shot when she'd got shot, and
Speaker 3: it was in the clubs. So that's how they really
Speaker 3: got me, because they knew your recent Yeah. So anyway,
Speaker 3: the whole time, I'm thinking I'm there for that. When
Speaker 3: I get to you know, you go to the little
Speaker 3: barn here in the city, like, well, your bail is
Speaker 3: a million dollars, your bill is a million dollars, I'm like,
Speaker 3: what the fuck happened? So that's when I find out
Speaker 3: about the murder. So I'm calling home, you know, I'm
Speaker 3: talking about people's and you know, momy and everybody crying,
Speaker 3: like what the fun going on? It's like you trying
Speaker 3: to charge you. I ain't know none of this.
Speaker 2: Because and I was like, they ain't get them out yet.
Speaker 2: I even tweeted, I said, man, death gam ain't the same.
Speaker 3: No, no, but I'm gonna tell you it is sit
Speaker 3: in the world. So you know, you go in there,
Speaker 3: it's real. It's Las County Jail. It's real. You know
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. I'm five eight, two hundred pounds, my
Speaker 3: heart is huge, but I'm not about to leave, you know,
Speaker 3: because because the thing about they wanted property, Well that's
Speaker 3: how they tried to play me. Like I tried to
Speaker 3: do cash. They want to do cast. It's six people,
Speaker 3: a million dollar bond a piece, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: They didn't want to be at six millions, so they
Speaker 3: don't want to do cash. And they started saying something
Speaker 3: about property. So all my team was sending people down
Speaker 3: there to get me out, like as soon as I
Speaker 3: got locked up. But the whole thing was I can't
Speaker 3: leave these motherfuckers in here, like this is real, Like
Speaker 3: this is real life, you know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 3: I can't just listen to the right and not even that.
Speaker 3: It was like, you know, they like you got to
Speaker 3: get out, you the brand. I said, listen to me, man,
Speaker 3: these people have been working hard for me this whole tour.
Speaker 3: There's no way in the fucking world that I'm gonna
Speaker 3: walk out of here a free man and leave them here.
Speaker 3: Now what I'm gonna do is y'all go figure everything out,
Speaker 3: to figure out what property. We need to get together,
Speaker 3: and I'm sitting here with the crew until it's time
Speaker 3: to go. So I sat there for the whole two
Speaker 3: weeks with everybody knock him out the field, got him out,
Speaker 3: come knocking on the wake me up. He's like, Yo,
Speaker 3: come in, come in, come in man. I'm like, Yo,
Speaker 3: what's up. It's the little guy. Man, he's tough man.
Speaker 3: He's still here. He's like, he ain't leaving his crew.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. Because it was like I was,
Speaker 3: you know, it's cantytail, so you know, you got it.
Speaker 3: You ain't existed. It's real in the v sound man,
Speaker 3: but you know, niggas. For actors, it was like, Yo,
Speaker 3: we're gonna take you in here with everybody. I'm like, ship,
Speaker 3: let's do it. She was like the throw. It was
Speaker 3: like Tupac came with that, Yo, yeah what I figure,
Speaker 3: whole block going crazy. It was like damn. So for me,
Speaker 3: you know, but that was like one of my first
Speaker 3: like real just unselfish moments because it was like, I
Speaker 3: can't leave him in here, so I stayed down to
Speaker 3: the whole thing. When I finally got out to answer
Speaker 3: your question, it was like, you know, I tried to
Speaker 3: beat you know, different as I could possibly be. But
Speaker 3: when I got put in the situation, they still treating
Speaker 3: me like a nigga, you know what I'm saying. And
Speaker 3: I already wasn't living my life to the fullest because
Speaker 3: I was, you know, guarded. You feel what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: So they still treat me like a nigga. I'm an
Speaker 3: executive at Atlantic Records, I got a fucking million dollar
Speaker 3: tequila company, I got for President Obama, I got all
Speaker 3: the type of and I got all this ship going on,
Speaker 3: and they treat me like a nigga. So like when
Speaker 3: it was all sitting and done, you know, when I
Speaker 3: finally got out, I was just like, you know what,
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna be on my life. Man, they just
Speaker 3: see what it is. I ain't gonna say, you know,
Speaker 3: guarded and sit back because because you know, niggas tell

Speaker 3: gotta take care of your surroundings. You gotta you know
Speaker 3: what I mean, You gotta you gotta be a certain
Speaker 3: type of way. You just can't know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: So once upon a time, you and Rick Ross was going,
Speaker 3: how did that?
Speaker 1: What happened before that, y'all was kind of in the
Speaker 1: wh was together with boys in the hood, kind of
Speaker 1: the party came into.
Speaker 2: The block Listen came in the game with a bad
Speaker 2: boy deal and a depth jam.
Speaker 3: But what that was, I was.
Speaker 1: Came from the beginning.
Speaker 3: I mean, but you know, like, look, man, you know,
Speaker 3: I'm a real man. If if you know, if the
Speaker 3: situation is real and it's is a real problem, it's
Speaker 3: a problem. But when when there's a misunderstanding and it
Speaker 3: ain't the right communication going on between people, I get that.
Speaker 3: It happens all the time. So you know, even with
Speaker 3: that whole situation, you know, it was just some ship
Speaker 3: that I felt like she got a content. But you know,
Speaker 3: I'm always staying you know my ground, you feel what
Speaker 3: I'm saying. So once I had to understand what was
Speaker 3: going on, it was cool. It wasn't really nothing. Ain't
Speaker 3: nobody touched nobody mama, Ain't nobody playing nobody money. You
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, Nobody fucking with your family. So
Speaker 3: it's like I get that. So at the end of
Speaker 3: the day, it's just like, you know, look man, you
Speaker 3: know we we we we the next you know, were
Speaker 3: the next bigionaires. You know what I'm saying, We're the

Speaker 3: if a motherfucker from Harvard and Yale can get along
Speaker 3: and make millions of dollars, by the fuck, we can't
Speaker 3: get along if it's you know, if it's about taking
Speaker 3: care about families and making sure our teams straight. If
Speaker 3: it ain't, if it ain't a real problem. I've seen
Speaker 3: Mexican cartels get along long enough to get some money together,
Speaker 3: you feel what I'm saying. So it's just like, you know,
Speaker 3: why not, because that's what they want to see, you know.
Speaker 3: They feel like all of us are ignorant. They feel like,
Speaker 3: you know, just because we get some money like that. No,
Speaker 3: you're right, you know, listen, man, you know we're still
Speaker 3: I understand it a little bit better now because I
Speaker 3: have to be an angry black man. You know what

Speaker 2: So that movie to thirteen, nah, you ain't that movie
Speaker 2: to thirty.
Speaker 3: I don't have to be, you know, just angry because
Speaker 3: now I look at the ship from a real perspective
Speaker 3: instead of around.
Speaker 1: Your father as well. Right, So that's always going to
Speaker 1: change your perspective.
Speaker 3: But not only that. I'm a successful black man. I

Speaker 1: Way that America sets himself up.
Speaker 3: It was time. He's been in the office eight years,
Speaker 3: two terms. Hurt. Nothing crazy about this.
Speaker 1: Man, nothing crazy nothing, This is a black man.
Speaker 5: He's also made sure that you're gonna come out.
Speaker 3: Trump ain't even been in the office. He already talking

Speaker 3: but I don't mean you can have you know, no,
Speaker 3: five hundred man.
Speaker 1: You know his business sense. Ain't your business sense? He
Speaker 1: got money, you.
Speaker 3: Got you can have. You can have real money and
Speaker 3: still be a fuck nigga. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: He turned politics into a smack d v D. No, listen,
Speaker 1: that's what he did. By the way politics is now.
Speaker 3: You if you're really watch what he did. He really
Speaker 3: took offense when Barak shinned on him at the Correspondence dinner,
Speaker 3: and his pride got in the way. And now he
Speaker 3: spends all his money. He spend all his money in
Speaker 3: his time to make a point. He's a sucker that
Speaker 3: when you when you're that, when you're that rich, you
Speaker 3: have to make points. You're not gonna rine a black man,
Speaker 3: talk to you like that with all these powerful people
Speaker 3: around you hurt.
Speaker 2: Okay, you and your is hip hop strong enough to
Speaker 2: really elect Kanye twenty twenty.
Speaker 3: Okay, listen, we're strong enough. I fuck with Kanye. I

Speaker 3: Just go kicking you don't do it. I love Listen,
Speaker 3: Kanye is my god.
Speaker 1: The arts, the arts will be crazy. List It's a
Speaker 1: possibility that Trump may be ours Kanye.
Speaker 3: I'm willing. I'm wanting to Trump president. Telling you this
Speaker 3: right now. Okay, there's no way in the world that
Speaker 3: America is going to let Donald Trump n Mark my words.
Speaker 3: Hillary Clinton will win. And I'm saying that for a
Speaker 3: lot of reasons. You know what I'm saying. What is
Speaker 3: you sounds smart? I watched this ship. Now, I'm a
Speaker 3: tax payer, like I give him a lot of my money,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. But Hillary Clinton has real resources.
Speaker 3: She's there with world leaders. She has Bill Clinton in
Speaker 3: a corner.
Speaker 1: Made the three strikes law.
Speaker 3: Yeah, not to say that they're right. You know, it's
Speaker 3: like like skinning the dog, skinning, which you go Tuesday night.
Speaker 3: But the reason why you.
Speaker 1: But the reason why you shouldn't say that is because
Speaker 1: there's a slight chance that there is that that part
Speaker 1: of America that hasn't voted before, right, that comes out
Speaker 1: of it. Well, listen, and we need to make sure
Speaker 1: that our part of America.
Speaker 3: Okay, So what I will say, Okay, so let's let's
Speaker 3: take Kanye out of the picture against my guy. You
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I will say this, make that niggas be cool. Though
Speaker 1: we have a president, yeah, man, president, But first he
Speaker 1: was just.
Speaker 3: I just think this man, if Donald Trump was to
Speaker 3: ever get in office, I just think that America wouldn't
Speaker 3: be great again and it wouldn't be anything like that
Speaker 3: because I think that's too but because he's too I raised.
Speaker 2: Even if you don't get into office right now, the
Speaker 2: way his campaign is set up, it's set up like
Speaker 2: your whole you.
Speaker 1: Could really do it in twenty twenty, right, fucking.
Speaker 2: You know, we don't want Kanye right and admit your
Speaker 2: drug this nigga, he ain't denying.
Speaker 3: But by the way, the Republican Party is like the
Speaker 3: most boring his party in the world. You know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying, He's just giving him excitement. They never had
Speaker 3: that nigga.
Speaker 1: He wasn't a Republicans start with.
Speaker 3: I'm telling you he wants to win. You don't give
Speaker 3: a You gotta do what you got a brother, he
Speaker 3: could be a fucking penguin. He winning.
Speaker 1: He was down with Hillary earlier.
Speaker 3: Listen, man, dude has a lot of money. You know.
Speaker 3: I respect this business sense, But listen, man, this is
Speaker 3: real ship. You know what I'm saying. My people out
Speaker 3: here going through it. You know what I'm saying every day,
Speaker 3: like niggas is getting killed, these polices.
Speaker 1: Out of hand, Like that's the worst election.
Speaker 3: It's like right now. So if it's apples and oranges,
Speaker 3: if I had to pick apple orange, I'm gonna pick
Speaker 3: the orange. You know what I'm saying. If I don't
Speaker 3: have to pick it all, I'm not gonna pick it up.
Speaker 1: I think we just endorse.
Speaker 3: I'm not ending anybody. I'm just saying, if I had
Speaker 3: to pick out of two things, then I have to
Speaker 3: make my best decision based on what I see. I'm
Speaker 3: not saying that's the best decision for me. I'm not
Speaker 3: saying this best decision for my kids. I'm just saying,
Speaker 3: this is the choice that you have But what I
Speaker 3: will say is Barack been in office eight years, Kadafi
Speaker 3: being lying. Know what I'm saying, He got that, so
Speaker 3: he on his gangs and ship. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I can't say all the way other places, but he
Speaker 1: bigunigas late he.
Speaker 3: Got into you know, he got into a situation where
Speaker 3: it was already fucked up. The only thing he could
Speaker 3: do is just ride it out. So when he's gone,
Speaker 3: they're gonna really realize how strong that ship will.
Speaker 1: And he reversed the deficit.
Speaker 3: People.
Speaker 1: I know that they don't know.
Speaker 3: If I had a choice, I would have hoped that

Speaker 3: what he said though that he said was his first term,
Speaker 3: he sang al green. In my second term, I'm gonna sing, Young.
Speaker 1: Jesus, let's make some noise.
Speaker 3: But but that, to me show me that, yeah, Ice

Speaker 3: can't stand around the little nigga that I respect, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna get on the stage and I'm like shout out
Speaker 3: to you know, stood by you, right, but without having
Speaker 3: to do that, And that tells me there, like that's presidential.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: That's that I know what you did for him, I
Speaker 1: ain't gonna stand by that right, and.
Speaker 3: That to me is a presidential quality. You know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying. I respect that. But you know, going back
Speaker 3: to main man, Donald Trump. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: It's just it's just nothing about his character.
Speaker 1: Who is GZ voting for?
Speaker 3: Man, I'm gonna kill you. He don't know. I you know,
Speaker 3: I want to vote.
Speaker 1: I think you should say I want to vote.
Speaker 3: Vote If I had twenty, if I had to vote,
Speaker 3: I definite would vote here.
Speaker 1: Because but we need to vote for him. Everybody vote.
Speaker 2: So because twenty twenty g this is what I think
Speaker 2: we should do. I think we should put one of
Speaker 2: you know. You know one thing I love about Paul is,
Speaker 2: no matter how.
Speaker 3: Much you want to put puff in the White.
Speaker 4: House, listen for everybody listen, and Trump coming that near
Speaker 4: to it, why not elect R Trump?
Speaker 3: But listen? First of all, Okay, I want to cluss
Speaker 3: something up to because in the text throw interview that
Speaker 3: kind of like compared Trump the Tupac I did. But
Speaker 3: you know, before you ask me any ignorant questions out there,
Speaker 3: and that people listen to the whole interview, that's wrong.
Speaker 3: Black people. They don't like to read ship, they don't
Speaker 3: like listen to ship, listen everything. I was saying that
Speaker 3: he's the hottest nigga in politics. If he was to
Speaker 3: put an album out, he's go diamond right now because
Speaker 3: he's that nigga. And that's how I felt about you
Speaker 3: now right right.
Speaker 2: Chris Allen, lets me know that he's Chris Green in
Speaker 2: the building.
Speaker 3: Lets me know that he's he's who he say he is.
Speaker 3: I watched I sat down watching CNN this motherfucker For
Speaker 3: the first of all, to be the president. You only
Speaker 3: make about four hundred thousand dollars a year. Make shit,
Speaker 3: that's fucking jet fuel for this. Just to be clear,
Speaker 3: that's that's the text right off of his sushi and
Speaker 3: all the other same city like, So that's one notice, right,
Speaker 3: so you watch this dude fly in on his own jet, Like,
Speaker 3: keep in mind that the Air Force one that Obama
Speaker 3: flies in. That's give it to him from you know,
Speaker 3: the government. He flies in on his seven forty seven.
Speaker 3: So whatever it is to Cleveland, gets in the helicopter
Speaker 3: to fly one mile over to a baseball field to
Speaker 3: meet and greet some people, and then get in his
Speaker 3: truck and go to whatever event he had to go to. Now,
Speaker 3: if that doesn't sound like the nigga from the hood
Speaker 3: to me to pull out all his cars and pull
Speaker 3: up to the club and let you know what he's
Speaker 3: working with, he's right.
Speaker 1: He's basically he gets girl. He basically saying I got it.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. So you gotta respect that,
Speaker 3: and note that's what you're dealing with. You're dealing with
Speaker 3: somebody who's very aware that he has a lot of
Speaker 3: shit going by the way. And I tell people all
Speaker 3: the time they're like, yo, you tripping. I'm like, yo, man, listen, man,
Speaker 3: that guy is so smart. His brand was cool. You
Speaker 3: always know how this ship go. Rich people want to
Speaker 3: be famous and famous people want to be rich. You
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, he dropping. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: like he's going for it is the dude that did
Speaker 3: He got his own.
Speaker 1: So he's smart. Right now, listen, think about it. Think
Speaker 1: about what he's going to his brand.
Speaker 3: You're talking about his brand, his brand, Yo. By the way,
Speaker 3: he don't give a fuck about his brand. He hot
Speaker 3: and whatever money he had is gonna flip four times
Speaker 3: by the time he's done doing what he's doing.
Speaker 5: Because before his brand, the Trump everything. I love that
Speaker 5: political right now, right, you know what I'm saying, for
Speaker 5: the lead like you lead people. If people could pay
Speaker 5: for the golf court health.
Speaker 3: Now his brand has by the way, but he doesn't
Speaker 3: hen't even that's that's the old news man. This dude
Speaker 3: trying to do a television network same way Puff did,
Speaker 3: Revote and everything else. Like he's a businessman. Though he
Speaker 3: deal with people to do a business. They're the most
Speaker 3: cut through but I think he's so smart he know
Speaker 3: he might not win, by the way, so what is
Speaker 3: this out? But by the way, by the way, is
Speaker 3: out is what he does? All this bullshit is coming
Speaker 3: up on him. He's showing his taxes. That's a fun
Speaker 3: Who wants all that burden? Who wants to do that? So,
Speaker 3: by the way, he probably sitting at home right now
Speaker 3: he does some crazy shit like I can't believe they
Speaker 3: ain't kick me out yet, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: But that's one say about this. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: What I'm saying is my whole thing is that hip
Speaker 2: hop we should have a union? Right when you sag,
Speaker 2: you know, you get your then to your health all that.
Speaker 2: Like don't you feel like do you feel like hip
Speaker 2: hop should we have a union?
Speaker 3: I mean just think is is risky because like if
Speaker 3: you really just think about it, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: Like who would be a part of it? Who would
Speaker 3: delegate what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: It's like it's like it's like it should be us,
Speaker 2: like a certain percentage maybe one percent goals, like.
Speaker 3: Be real. I just think it's a little bit difficult
Speaker 3: because you know, music is the new streets everybody might
Speaker 3: not get in line with that because everybody you get
Speaker 3: so many different people just doing their own thing and
Speaker 3: got their own form of leadership or whatever they think.
Speaker 3: They might not be with putting things together because with
Speaker 3: this ship, people only care. It's like the streets, I
Speaker 3: don't care about me, my team and the niggas I'm
Speaker 3: grinding with, you know what I'm saying, Like anything, I think.
Speaker 2: That's a problem because at the end of the day,
Speaker 2: like we gotta we have to have something that continues
Speaker 2: to give to people who dedicated to our culture and
Speaker 2: maybe ain't prosper the.
Speaker 5: Way me and you are, Like why can't Melly Mell
Speaker 5: and Grandma's Flash have something like a man care And let's.
Speaker 2: Let's say get give you know my man that'n let's
Speaker 2: say get fair them to not have that, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean.
Speaker 1: But he put me out, Let's say, big gift, that's
Speaker 1: my nigga. That's my nigga. This never happened, right, but
Speaker 1: big gip Right.
Speaker 2: Let's say he just gets sick and something happened, Like
Speaker 2: I feel like this should be a fund for big
Speaker 2: get Like you.
Speaker 1: Know what I'm saying. Immediately as soon as something like Boom,
Speaker 1: his insurance.
Speaker 2: Is taking care of that niggas that respect outcasts and
Speaker 2: respect the.
Speaker 1: People that came before us. We gave a one percent
Speaker 1: of something and it just takes care of them already.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, somebody who.
Speaker 2: Dedicated their whole life to hip hop. I don't feel
Speaker 2: like that Birden.
Speaker 5: Should be on the fan before you, before you inswer
Speaker 5: that sag like saga they do that, you bite into
Speaker 5: that whatever you like.
Speaker 1: What the actor you could be a actor buying into that.
Speaker 3: What happens to the people in the hood, and the
Speaker 3: and the mothers in the hood, that the single mothers
Speaker 3: and trying to raise their kids and trying to do better,
Speaker 3: Like I would see better for them to have a
Speaker 3: situation like that for us because in a situation what we.
Speaker 2: Can get but the artist is gonna But if these
Speaker 2: artists died, this woman are single mother.
Speaker 1: These artists artists.
Speaker 2: Out of New York. All right, cool Boom, you know
Speaker 2: his wife. I don't understand. I don't know what's going
Speaker 2: on or whatever, but you know, it should have been
Speaker 2: like something that we all just gained, like you know,
Speaker 2: and not that goal funded me that embarrassing like you
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, Like, you know, we all we all,
Speaker 2: we all get at the end of the day, right,
Speaker 2: we take a small percentage, and you say it's so whenever.
Speaker 3: You we don't have the personally, I got one, I
Speaker 3: got one better for you. I think that your approach
Speaker 3: is absolutely right, you know, just coming from my perspective.
Speaker 3: But I don't think it should be on us. I said,
Speaker 3: I think it should be on these labels that's made
Speaker 3: all these hundreds of millions. They're gonna do it, they
Speaker 3: do it, But that's the people you need to put
Speaker 3: a person on because they're making money hand over fist
Speaker 3: off all coaching and that.
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 2: He's right, But I think they will follow us first
Speaker 2: because because at some point we're gonna claim our independence, right,
Speaker 2: Like you know what I'm saying, Like at some point
Speaker 2: you you might you know, live in depth jam, right,
Speaker 2: you might, and then you might just say, you know what,
Speaker 2: fuck it because it's streaming, streaming.
Speaker 3: But that's why I got a lot of respect, you
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. For a lot of the younger
Speaker 3: cats is coming up and saying, you know what, I
Speaker 3: don't think I'm like, i'ma keep it real. I took
Speaker 3: a deal because I didn't want to go to prison,
Speaker 3: point blank period. You know what I mean, It's the
Speaker 3: best thing I had. Smoking is like going to college.
Speaker 3: You feel what I'm saying. It's like I got a scholarship.
Speaker 3: What you're gonna do, I'm gonna go play hard, and
Speaker 3: that's what I do it. You feel what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: But that's why I got right, and that's why I
Speaker 3: got and that's why I got a lot of respect
Speaker 3: for them. Like a young a lot of the younger
Speaker 3: cats is coming up and figuring it out because they
Speaker 3: still getting their money, but they ain't in the streets,
Speaker 3: so you gotta respect that. And they feed people that's
Speaker 3: around them. But to your point, more from where I'm standing,
Speaker 3: I think that the label has made more money off
Speaker 3: the culture than any of us had. Absolutely, So I
Speaker 3: feel like it's like working at a fucking Fortune five
Speaker 3: hundred company. When you sign up and you do it,
Speaker 3: you go in, you get your dental, you get your insurance,
Speaker 3: you get your health, you get all that ship.
Speaker 1: Because streaming kind of fuck like you think it added on.
Speaker 3: I think it made entrepreneurs out of young niggas in
Speaker 3: the hood because it's like, now I love the stream right,
Speaker 3: I think it made. But by the way, just how
Speaker 3: crazy music is to monetize, meaning like you know, like
Speaker 3: you know, it's it's so, it's so much is basically free.
Speaker 3: So the streaming it helps for you to know to
Speaker 3: you know just where you're at in the world, you
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So I'm not a gauge where you're at, right, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Album they said streamed.
Speaker 2: One hundred million times, but it just went platinum.
Speaker 3: Right, So it did go platinum. What that's big? That's big.
Speaker 2: So so now when when they say platinum, are they
Speaker 2: still saying hard copies?
Speaker 1: Every thousand streams is one co I'm gonna say you
Speaker 1: like this, No, no, it went platinum. No no, I'm
Speaker 1: telling you right now, every certain amount of streams one sale.
Speaker 3: Think it's three three streams. I think I gotta ask.
Speaker 1: I think I think it's a couple of ali. I
Speaker 1: think it's just Atlantic Ali.
Speaker 3: What what? What? What? What?
Speaker 2: Atlantic Records said?
Speaker 3: I get here?
Speaker 2: Yeah, come on, come on, legitimate la industry ship.
Speaker 3: Some industry niggas over here. Let's get something we drink
Speaker 3: over no dr facts over right, shampool, So what sample

Speaker 2: He said, fifty hundred, He's get you six hundred and
Speaker 2: sixty six dollars.
Speaker 3: Okay, but how many? How many streams all a cludely
Speaker 3: to aim?
Speaker 1: Fifty fifteen hundred hundred? What is equivalent to one sale?

Speaker 1: Wow?
Speaker 3: Yeah right yo, Jesus's crazy where.
Speaker 1: The industry is going? I don't you shampoo shampoo you
Speaker 1: all right? You look look you going on some fagas?
Speaker 3: Ou you need you need, you need to side of
Speaker 3: a nigga? How about that shampool?
Speaker 1: Why?
Speaker 3: What's up your life? Right?
Speaker 2: Miss Avon? But I'm not jeesuy.
Speaker 3: I'm not fucked up about the streams thoughcause you got
Speaker 3: to really think about it like they because I got
Speaker 3: a nigga right now, I gonna get my eye part.
Speaker 3: He gonna lolad me up, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: But I'm just sitting here, like damn, just getting all
Speaker 3: these niggas music for free, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: But you complain about to its being sold free. But
Speaker 3: what I do think is like man, listen, man, you
Speaker 3: know if you if you in this city to sell
Speaker 3: records that's on you. If you in this city changed
Speaker 3: lives and and motherfucker you know, just bring something to
Speaker 3: the culture, then numbers don't matter. You know. The love
Speaker 3: that you get and the way people treat you, that's
Speaker 3: what the matters. So to me, it's like, Okay, look,
Speaker 3: I'm sold two million records before you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: one hundred dollars.
Speaker 2: More. Man, I need somebody to work for me.
Speaker 3: You know I've gave away hundreds of thousands of mixtapes.
Speaker 3: I'm still the same nigga, you know what I'm saying. So,
Speaker 3: like numbers will never make me feel like I'm bigger,
Speaker 3: greater than who I am. My heart is what it is,
Speaker 3: and my mind is where it's that, you know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying. I'm at peace, So you know I love
Speaker 3: what I do. So whether I I sold a thousand
Speaker 3: records of a mean records, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: My catalog is great. If I go out in these streets,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get the same love, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: So it's like that's cool on the on the business sense,
Speaker 3: I get that, But as far as putting your heart
Speaker 3: and your blood sweat and Twiss and your craft. I
Speaker 3: think that that's what really matters. So even if I
Speaker 3: don't do a mean records again, that's cool. I already
Speaker 3: done that, you know what I'm saying. Let's talk about
Speaker 3: some shit I ain't done. So I want niggas to
Speaker 3: feel me. I want them to feel me. So I'm
Speaker 3: gonna put the same effort into what I done. Is
Speaker 3: if it's just if this is my first mixtape, my
Speaker 3: first almum, you know what I'm saying. So whatever the
Speaker 3: results are, that's fine. I know I give you my all.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. I know when I walk
Speaker 3: outside set poo on that ship, when I walk outside,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get that same love. And that's and that's
Speaker 3: what matters to me. The love. I'm like, God, damn
Speaker 3: what my man named Mitch paid them for. I want
Speaker 3: to I want the love.
Speaker 2: Soul Survival right, crazy? That was That was one of
Speaker 2: my favorite records.
