I start rhyming since a 0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:57.280 kid man. I was the dude that like that just 0:02:57.360 --> 0:03:00.520 loved every record and like, um, I would just like 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:02.200 change the words of the records, like you know, I 0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:06.239 mean to make my own little records, my own little 0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:07.799 records of it. Yeah, you know what I mean. And 0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:11.400 in my house we had record places. There wasn't turntables. 0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:13.400 I was treating them like turn tables because I was like, 0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:15.560 you know, my pops had a lot of records at 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:19.800 the time, and I would try I would miss up 0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:24.400 a lot of needles and like that. Remember you mightn't 0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:27.320 really have a j oh, that's a good question. I 0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:29.919 don't really have a you know, I don't really know. 0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:32.600 But I was like I love the blends. I loved 0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:36.320 you know what I mean. So um rap was like 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:38.320 real easy to me. It was like, yo, that was 0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:40.040 the ship, you know what I'm saying. I don't really 0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:41.720 had no name yet. I was like that was the 0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:43.720 hard paull like that we can't make your name and 0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:46.480 like that. But but you know what I mean, hip 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:50.040 hop just just hip hop because for me it was 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:51.680 like I did a little bit of all of it. 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:54.000 You know, I was a kid that could do the 0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:59.960 Buffiti and he was. I spent on my saying roster music. 0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:05.560 But you know when when hip hop was was was 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:08.040 was becoming some ship I wouldn't you know, we don't 0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:09.520 know who. I don't know if I was gonna be 0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:13.280 the DJ, the rapper. Uh, you know what I'm saying. Ship, 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:17.920 But but I embodied all of that ship yes, and 0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:20.200 then and then all right, cool, look lootie little shot 0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:23.279 little look a little not shot yet just regular chairs. 0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:30.280 So all right boom. Now when you started Roman, who 0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:32.320 was the people from the Queen's Bridge that was on 0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:36.200 who's here? Like people who looked up to when we 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:40.880 came up. We've always had like Molly Mars, right, Molly 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:45.920 Mall was the dude and DJ hot Day that day 0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:47.679 was the dude that was like he brings the speakers 0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:50.320 out and he brings me speakers out. Everybody started coming 0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:53.040 around and you know, it becomes the party, right, So 0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:55.200 we used to use the the part queens bridge was 0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:59.920 right across the street from this big park, so mall 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:01.560 m all, and these dudes just it used to be 0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:05.279 nothing to come outside and see the em C Shins, 0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:09.360 the Juice crew. There was the Niggers right, so it 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:13.080 would be like Coogi wrap order about hanging outside outside, 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:16.520 and now that's outside, these guys walking out. I heard 0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:19.400 Rock did check out my melody. He recorded that one 0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:24.960 of those cane and all these things on your you're 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:27.640 going to the store, Like holy shit, you know what 0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:31.760 I mean. But it was so dope because videos wasn't 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:34.120 the ship. So if you reach to the point where 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:40.120 somebody said, yo, that's such and such, who's especially if 0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:41.719 you had the juke box. If you don't have the jukebox, 0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:44.800 man have that dollar twenty five. You know, watch ain't 0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:49.279 half stepping you. But we used to have these jams 0:05:49.279 --> 0:05:51.800 in the park, you know what I'm saying. We had 0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:54.600 River Park, so you know, at any given time, there 0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:56.640 was like forming some ship in front of me. Like 0:05:56.680 --> 0:06:00.680 it was like the empty Shins, the crack gs, the 0:06:00.760 --> 0:06:04.760 rocks and sean time. You don't do they're all older 0:06:04.760 --> 0:06:08.799 than me. But I was the dude that was watching 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.880 these shows in the park from the tree branch, no exaggeration, 0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:14.000 like I know that if I'm too short to stand 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:17.720 right here, and they like that, and I know that 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:19.480 if I moved from this tree branch, I'm not going 0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:22.080 to see the show. But I'm watching the hip hop 0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:25.560 live from the beginning, like you know what I'm saying. 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:28.040 It was like, holy ship, these guys donna ask you 0:06:28.440 --> 0:06:31.839 a question. So when Shan said hip hop started out 0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:34.159 on the ball, you thought that he really really start. 0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:38.240 I've never been over nowhere else, so I'm like this ship, 0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:41.880 you know what I mean. These guys were dope, but 0:06:41.920 --> 0:06:44.960 they was They were just like you didn't. Like I said, 0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:46.880 it was no video, so you have to like love 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:49.000 this music right here. And the only way you could 0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:53.719 get it was through the radio, I believe, through a 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:56.480 Friday or Saturday night, through you know what I mean, 0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:59.160 having the radio and taping this ship. And and I 0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:01.040 was the guy that was the next day to be 0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:03.520 playing songs like yeah, you ain't got this right, hitting 0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:05.040 me good, and I'm you know, I'm playing the only 0:07:05.040 --> 0:07:08.640 reason why I didn't I didn't believe Shan. But the 0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:10.960 only reason why I had cousins always from the Bronx 0:07:10.960 --> 0:07:13.320 that with with with debate that immediately, but like, no, 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:16.400 it didn't come from me. But the day to Queen's 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:19.640 Bridge was the first people that was actually doing parties 0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:22.280 on the Queen's side. So I can see where you 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:25.320 know thought that, and I can see where other people 0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:28.960 from Queens because you know that they with a jam 0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:35.840 and Shan right trying to get on chance and listen, 0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:38.880 we are not avoiding you at all. We got we got. 0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:41.080 But what I'm saying was while I was sharing was 0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:44.360 Sham was the first person I've seen I had style. 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:49.000 He had like two different color pumas, yeah, big kingos, 0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:51.600 he had rope chains. He was like even though you 0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:54.000 know when the when the ship went on with caress 0:07:54.040 --> 0:07:56.240 One and talking about him and all that suff ship, 0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:59.760 but he would walk around and have the audi and 0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:02.040 he was a definition of what a star was. And 0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:04.680 I didn't know what anything sold. He might not have 0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:07.000 ever made any money from the records, but if you 0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:11.120 looked at mc ship, he was at his time, he 0:08:11.160 --> 0:08:17.120 was with it. What we wanted was the man still 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:20.440 a man, and he did a lot for us things 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:24.000 in Queens. Richard win the triple off, so okay, so 0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:26.320 you looked up to right now boom, Now what is 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:29.240 the point what you said to yourself, I'm gonna actually 0:08:29.280 --> 0:08:33.240 do this professionally because me personally, I'll ride for a 0:08:33.280 --> 0:08:35.199 long time. I ride, probably since I was a leaping 0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:37.760 but I never thought of doing it professionally until I 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:41.160 was like that. For me, I still wasn't even when 0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:43.839 we were just doing the all these clue tapes, right, 0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:50.880 I still didn't really don't say that I didn't take 0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:57.720 it serious, but I still didn't understand what it takes 0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:00.439 to probably shape the album. I'm still didn't none stand 0:09:00.720 --> 0:09:03.160 how to do I'm doing clue taps, not really knowing 0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:05.600 how to count bars. I just know that my bars 0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:12.400 was kind of fire, you know, So I didn't know 0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:15.560 as far as you can't how you getting on clue 0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:19.320 taps to start, you definitely skip the way off. So 0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:21.600 it had to be a moment prior to that that 0:09:21.640 --> 0:09:23.240 you said, you know, I think I could do this, 0:09:23.280 --> 0:09:25.240 Like what was that? I mean? Because at the time 0:09:25.320 --> 0:09:28.680 dudes was establishing names for themselves right after you already 0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:32.480 had the wave of the h Molly's and all these 0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:34.760 other things. It kind of went quiet for a minute, right, 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:39.960 And so We're still in school, so I'm learning about 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:42.720 who's dope that's around me, like you know what I mean? 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:46.080 Like Yo, the word of spread throughout the hood and 0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:49.480 through school. Who's dope? Like You'll start walking across the 0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:51.880 street to the other side and here, yeah, I heard 0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:53.679 other such as kind of dope. You know what I mean. 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:56.280 It might not be an official battle, but you might 0:09:56.320 --> 0:09:59.680 go one ahead. What's going on because people are talking 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:03.560 I'm saying, and I just knew that. I didn't really 0:10:03.559 --> 0:10:07.480 write rhymes, but I can catch it anything like I 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:09.679 could catch style. I can catch I knew how to 0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:11.600 change the words, so I can catch anything you threw 0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:14.720 at me. So anytime, dudes was kind of like the 0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:17.520 names was building up, I might have said, like a 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:19.280 little bit of something that I had. It might not 0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:21.199 be a full rhyme, but my rhynd might be. Like 0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:24.080 like I said, so your name starts getting put in 0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:27.760 these circles. I'm still not thinking about taking serious. It's 0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:31.280 still like I still I had all. I still had 0:10:31.280 --> 0:10:33.760 to go through the trials and tribulations of the hood 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.079 before I even could get to that, you know what 0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:40.600 I'm saying. People didn't know me as a rapper. Certain 0:10:40.679 --> 0:10:42.920 dudes in the school, like you know who's who, who 0:10:42.920 --> 0:10:45.440 could carry who has some balls? But I wasn't like 0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:47.640 it was dudes before me. It was like the Cold 0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:49.320 Megan's and all of that, you know what I mean. 0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:51.600 It was these guys that was putting in work on 0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:55.200 it on the street like some real ship. But my 0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:58.520 name was always mentioned in those circles. But still I 0:10:58.559 --> 0:11:01.120 wasn't the first or first how you talked about for 0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:05.360 the second guy you talked about. But it's circular, yes, 0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:10.400 you know what I mean. So um, all right, now 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:13.160 you did that. What was the person in the new 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.840 era that you started to I know you said cold. 0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:17.679 What was the person let's walked you to say, you 0:11:17.760 --> 0:11:19.560 know what, I could do this the new era from 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:21.920 from Queen's Bridge or anywhere it could be for a minute, 0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:24.319 well doing front and you know what I mean? It 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:33.680 was it was when the talks of money being made 0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:35.959 when we're actually making records, when he was actually talking 0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:40.520 about um doing an album called the Firm. It was like, Hey, 0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:42.520 this guy from the hood, my gobs from the hood 0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:46.360 that we kind of we we we didn't let's go 0:11:46.400 --> 0:11:49.480 fast with lem just going buying, all right? Well, how 0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:51.120 did you meet jumping with? That's where that that was 0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:54.400 the condition connection, right, yeah, all right, let's go. Yeah, 0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:56.440 I mean I mean were in the we in the hood. 0:11:56.440 --> 0:12:01.319 We just vibed out, we just connected earlier. Um, it 0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:05.000 was like exciting for me to actually go from the 0:12:05.040 --> 0:12:08.960 transition from recording in people's cribs to go to the studio. 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:14.679 So fucking with Jung Jung had the opportunity for us 0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:17.800 to actually go in the studio. So this is the 0:12:17.800 --> 0:12:21.240 first time I'm actually hearing how did young know you, Rhyn? Because, um, 0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:23.880 I mean we all have we all with mutual friends, 0:12:23.920 --> 0:12:27.360 we were all we're all from the project. Jungles from Vernon, 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:30.080 us from Vernon. For people that don't know queens Bridge, 0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:32.680 I know that is the next block Vernon and timp 0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:35.360 Street would be the next block, and the timpt Street 0:12:35.360 --> 0:12:38.000 and Tall Street be the next block. That one little 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:41.199 block is a whole another word like you know what 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:44.040 I'm saying. So how did he know you? You Rhyn 0:12:44.679 --> 0:12:46.440 Test Street and he's from Burning Now I think it 0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:49.920 was probably like my dude Killer and probably dudes like 0:12:50.160 --> 0:12:55.280 wiz Killer from Vernon from Okay, but you know what 0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:57.560 I mean, It was association at the time when when 0:12:57.640 --> 0:13:04.280 when Naas was when Nas first came out with his album, 0:13:04.920 --> 0:13:08.559 the guys that was around him were also around me 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:13.240 and you rhymed back then on that. Yeah, when It 0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:16.320 Matter came out, you already he was already mine, but 0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:23.360 it wasn't But I was not serious until it Mannic 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:25.240 came out when madd came out, So I gotta get 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:27.560 my light together, you know what I'm saying. For reals, 0:13:27.600 --> 0:13:31.600 But we've had plenty of conversations prior to making records, 0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:36.040 me and Nas where we didn't sat there, we talked 0:13:36.640 --> 0:13:40.000 and you know, I remember borrowing his Tripical Quests tape 0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:45.880 Tripical Quests came out. I actually borrowed his tape textet 0:13:46.280 --> 0:13:52.760 we will Doead what What's Ale? He came back to 0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:55.199 take came back to the crib to get the tape. 0:13:55.240 --> 0:14:00.120 That's like, you know, we borrowed you take back the 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:02.800 try bold Quest tape. Now if I'm lying real, you 0:14:02.800 --> 0:14:04.720 know what I'm saying. So we were like this ship 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:07.319 was always around us. Name of the album, it was 0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:17.439 my favorite favorite instincts travel, people's instinct travel. What's that's 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:19.840 the name of that's the that's the first one, right, 0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:27.680 that's the first one, you know what I mean. So 0:14:27.800 --> 0:14:31.040 we we were around this ship. We loved this ship, 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:33.360 you know what I'm saying. So you're saying, you all 0:14:33.400 --> 0:14:35.000 right because I didn't know this. I swear to God, 0:14:35.000 --> 0:14:37.920 I did not know this. So you knew NAS and 0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:41.120 don't do prior to them, even they're really really nice 0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:45.200 because NAS is most of my age. So you know 0:14:45.240 --> 0:14:49.320 what I'm saying. So it's like at the time, I'm 0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:51.880 I'm sucking up. I'm you know what I'm saying. I'm 0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:54.560 doing all kind of getting in trouble and ship like that, 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.240 and the guys that's around and saying, you know what, 0:14:57.480 --> 0:14:59.920 I got somebody that I got faith in two some 0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:02.720 from the block that I think that we should kind 0:15:02.720 --> 0:15:06.000 of like bring him to the studio and try to 0:15:06.040 --> 0:15:08.000 do some ship. They talked about you what they told 0:15:08.000 --> 0:15:10.880 about they're talking about me, you know what they're talking 0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:13.640 about me. So they get me to the studio. We 0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:16.360 started recording. I don't know, I don't remember. Probably was 0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:21.520 shout off DJ Clue that very first shootout joint probably was. 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:23.880 That was like one of the first records I've ever 0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:36.440 made like that. So thet me so so we went 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:42.560 into the studio and we should start making little free styles. Right. 0:15:43.360 --> 0:15:45.960 Clue made it open because he gave us the opportunity 0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:48.560 to like to get on these tapes. Right, I'm still 0:15:48.560 --> 0:15:52.000 not really taking it serious, just like because everybody's going 0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:54.720 their way up. There's nobody that's really you know what 0:15:54.760 --> 0:15:56.880 I'm saying. It's kind of different when you when your men, 0:15:57.080 --> 0:16:00.240 like when you spend time with somebody from more and 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:04.040 they become famous. I'm just still my man from a 0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:06.120 little I'm just supposed to still be my man. Certain 0:16:06.160 --> 0:16:10.040 things change in life. We totally understand that. But at 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:12.040 that one point, do I look at you as like that? 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.480 Because I got plenty of stories of like why you're 0:16:15.520 --> 0:16:18.440 becoming this stall? We're still right here and if you're 0:16:18.480 --> 0:16:23.480 my man, I'm playing different roles for you that serious. 0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:29.960 But didn't know. I didn't know until I see all 0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:32.520 these other rappers I got told you I was coming 0:16:32.560 --> 0:16:35.200 from being locked up and remember that, so I didn't 0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:40.360 really care what it is. But I didn't realize that 0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:42.280 Clue was giving me the opportunity to be first or 0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:53.760 second on these tapes and me and the locks and ship, 0:16:53.800 --> 0:16:56.760 like that's what these dudes is becoming something, and they 0:16:56.800 --> 0:17:02.440 had these expectations of me. I didn't know because I'm 0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:06.840 following my team's lead. So they're talking about forming some 0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:08.960 big ship that's going on. Who's the team and the 0:17:09.080 --> 0:17:13.240 team at the time. I mean, I'm who's talking. I'm 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:16.879 coming into the game, into the studio, still being a 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:20.119 part of NAS. So whatever he's shoying to for him, 0:17:20.400 --> 0:17:22.080 I'm not sure what he's shying the form, but I'm 0:17:22.119 --> 0:17:24.480 a part of that, you know what I'm saying. So 0:17:25.520 --> 0:17:27.800 we're running around, they're talking about doing the firm, and 0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:32.960 he's picking these other rappers that I've never known met before, 0:17:33.160 --> 0:17:37.560 but you heard of. They're becoming, they're becoming stars there 0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:40.840 their own people in their own right. But I was 0:17:40.880 --> 0:17:45.680 pulled into this game because as a reaction, Okay, let's 0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:47.439 take a shot before we go there, I feel like 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:49.840 you want to go to them. We're gonna talk about whatever. 0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:53.479 But it's not like your typical ship, you know what 0:17:53.480 --> 0:18:01.879 I'm saying, Because all right, the hold I remember, let 0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:04.840 me go on. I'm bringing back because when I was 0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:09.520 doing these clue joints, I'm recording these clue joints every 0:18:09.560 --> 0:18:12.440 every time crew comes out. I'm I'm on these tapes right, 0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:14.560 but how did it get to the Clue joints? Though 0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:17.320 the guy's clue was kind of because Clue was in 0:18:17.440 --> 0:18:23.800 house with Steve down and that, but I'm still not 0:18:25.280 --> 0:18:29.640 I'm stale. I'm sorry you just cut off because one 0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:34.240 a second at this time, I still can't describe the 0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:37.240 buzz that Clue had, like the amount that it meant 0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:40.240 for you to be a number one through five people 0:18:40.240 --> 0:18:43.480 getting signed for Clue. So like at first, like I 0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:47.000 haven't I described when I met you, but when I 0:18:47.080 --> 0:18:48.720 didn't meet you, I think the first three style you 0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:50.440 had with just you by yourself, so no one knew 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:53.280 your affiliation, no one. It was the second threestyle but 0:18:53.359 --> 0:18:56.560 nows actually set some Adeline or something. I don't remember 0:18:56.680 --> 0:19:00.800 like perfectly, but I remember how step shipped meant to 0:19:00.880 --> 0:19:02.560 the city, so I know him on No, no, no, 0:19:02.720 --> 0:19:08.360 they're got a shot the shot. Let's stay forward, sile side, 0:19:08.480 --> 0:19:15.080 stay listen to you three ten say bad Wana made? 0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:32.240 So so what's happening, what's happening? What's happening? Yeah, okay, 0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:37.640 I can't what's going on? Got sorry? Alright? So bom um, 0:19:38.040 --> 0:19:46.320 all right, So you start doing the coupe tech first one, 0:19:46.359 --> 0:19:48.879 the second one didn't, so you you don't actually know 0:19:49.080 --> 0:19:51.600 what's what's going on because the firm had already been 0:19:51.600 --> 0:19:55.159 started at that time. They had already been starting, okay, 0:19:55.600 --> 0:19:59.160 And I'm not really being so I'm not talking about 0:19:59.240 --> 0:20:02.280 business when it comes down to that, I'm basically the 0:20:03.320 --> 0:20:05.280 guy the shooter. I'm still trying to figure out what 0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:07.600 kind of who I am, what kind of style I have. 0:20:07.840 --> 0:20:11.080 I just know that clue is after I do this take, 0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:12.800 I'm getting a response from the people, you know what 0:20:12.840 --> 0:20:14.920 I'm saying. So it's a little bit bigger from going 0:20:15.000 --> 0:20:17.240 from rapping on the corner. So I went from rapping 0:20:17.280 --> 0:20:19.840 on the corner to wrapping in people's cribs in the 0:20:19.920 --> 0:20:22.119 living rooms in the basements, to now going to the 0:20:22.160 --> 0:20:25.960 studio and actually getting a good sound and ship you 0:20:26.000 --> 0:20:28.400 know what I'm saying, and leaving with tapes and ship 0:20:28.520 --> 0:20:30.880 like that, and so the people in the hood as 0:20:30.920 --> 0:20:34.520 actually starting to talk. It's starting to talk. I'm becoming 0:20:34.520 --> 0:20:37.120 another one of those names that's from the hood, that's 0:20:37.280 --> 0:20:40.840 You've got so many after this freestyle at least, you know, 0:20:41.960 --> 0:20:45.439 in the studio and just doing just being in the studio, 0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:51.240 being being affiliated with Son because he didn't really start 0:20:51.280 --> 0:20:55.080 to do anything for anybody yet outside of life's a 0:20:55.160 --> 0:20:57.400 bit you didn't really he didn't. You know, he's still 0:20:57.440 --> 0:21:01.160 climbing up on his way up. But to actually here that, Yo, 0:21:01.280 --> 0:21:05.399 he got somebody from the hood that's that can actually 0:21:05.520 --> 0:21:07.040 wrap it. And you know what I'm saying. You know 0:21:07.040 --> 0:21:08.879 what I'm saying. And I'm not one of the first people. 0:21:09.200 --> 0:21:11.159 I don't know what the relationship that he has with 0:21:11.600 --> 0:21:13.920 Mega or what he has with all these other guys, 0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:17.800 but I just know that everybody that that hung around 0:21:17.960 --> 0:21:20.399 was kind of old to one kind of cruel to 0:21:20.600 --> 0:21:22.159 you know what I'm saying, one kind of crue I 0:21:22.200 --> 0:21:24.760 didn't understand the business. I didn't understand this, but I 0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:26.800 know that I've been listening to rap for so long 0:21:26.960 --> 0:21:28.960 that I could do this ship too, you know what 0:21:29.000 --> 0:21:31.080 I'm saying. So what happened when they approach you and 0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:33.680 that was what was it? Steve Stout? Is that the 0:21:33.680 --> 0:21:36.520 first person to turn it into business for you? Yeah, 0:21:36.520 --> 0:21:38.440 because that's the first people that I actually got to 0:21:38.480 --> 0:21:45.760 check from. So to Steve Stout, I say, you know 0:21:45.760 --> 0:21:47.280 what I mean, shout out to them. They the ones 0:21:47.400 --> 0:21:49.640 that actually was like because it's not like your hand, 0:21:50.480 --> 0:21:52.479 they put you on a clue tape without you actually 0:21:52.480 --> 0:21:55.520 signing to them. Yes, because I was crazy because clue 0:21:55.560 --> 0:21:57.520 tape us still with like, no, I didn't know what 0:21:57.640 --> 0:22:00.040 this one, what was happening with these clue tapes. I 0:22:00.119 --> 0:22:01.840 just know that when I was going to go see 0:22:01.880 --> 0:22:06.320 my po wan't Jamaica my po fucking We're going in there. 0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:08.440 We're going to record store, one of these little small 0:22:08.520 --> 0:22:10.879 last record stores, and that's when you actually will buy 0:22:10.960 --> 0:22:13.600 the tape just because of certain names was on it, 0:22:13.920 --> 0:22:15.320 you know what I'm saying. But I didn't realize that 0:22:15.359 --> 0:22:17.560 people was buying it because Lean was on it until 0:22:17.600 --> 0:22:20.119 I was meeting these people like oh Ship. But at 0:22:20.160 --> 0:22:22.000 the time, it was almost like ghost space killer when 0:22:22.040 --> 0:22:27.440 I say that in the happening, really the cowboy happen 0:22:27.680 --> 0:22:29.320 the cowboy you know where I think it's from the 0:22:29.359 --> 0:22:31.359 hood making they get they get you know who got it? 0:22:31.400 --> 0:22:37.000 Then when they get a cow cowboy, I got the cowboys. 0:22:43.320 --> 0:22:48.240 So all right, Clue, let's just get into it.

I always heard about this guy, 0:23:05.080 --> 0:23:07.880 but I never was around this guy right here right. 0:23:08.359 --> 0:23:13.680 I knew Capone because Capone was from Queensbridge. So in 0:23:13.760 --> 0:23:15.960 the middle of me getting locked up and doing dumb shit, 0:23:16.680 --> 0:23:20.040 these guys happened to shoot a video on the roof 0:23:20.119 --> 0:23:26.760 of my building.

I didn't need him still to me, I know, 0:23:33.320 --> 0:23:35.560 I'm saying. It was still this guy that had this 0:23:35.800 --> 0:23:38.199 this opward style. Nobody didn't know, you know what I mean. 0:23:38.280 --> 0:23:43.920 They thought his name was Jose Luise. I didn't know, 0:23:47.200 --> 0:24:01.399 but I thought on the side this ye about celebrated stories. 0:24:02.000 --> 0:24:09.960 I mean, who I fake? Fake? Oh God, So this 0:24:10.119 --> 0:24:13.440 guy right here making his rounds. I'm still a fan 0:24:13.600 --> 0:24:16.640 of what's going on. And it wasn't until a round 0:24:16.680 --> 0:24:18.800 of time when he was actually doing the firm that 0:24:20.200 --> 0:24:22.600 we was drown in the pot together. So it's like 0:24:22.720 --> 0:24:25.440 I've never been nowhere. So my first time in Miami 0:24:26.119 --> 0:24:28.960 might have been his first time in Miami. Have no 0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:32.920 driver's license. We're just out heads, smoking weed and hanging 0:24:32.960 --> 0:24:35.640 around the fellers and dre and these niggas and ship 0:24:35.760 --> 0:24:37.920 like that your bowl on. I'm saying the very first 0:24:37.960 --> 0:24:40.440 time was before that though, But where was we act 0:24:41.040 --> 0:24:44.719 right track? It was with us married j Bilies when 0:24:44.760 --> 0:24:47.000 that record, when that record came out. So this is this, 0:24:47.160 --> 0:24:49.439 This is what I gotta ask. I gotta ask because 0:24:49.680 --> 0:24:53.640 I know you probably answered this a million times. I'm 0:24:53.680 --> 0:24:56.760 sure you know MEGA probably asked the million times. But 0:24:57.040 --> 0:24:59.840 here's is it on that record? That was the record 0:24:59.880 --> 0:25:03.399 that you went that? Yeah, that was the record. I 0:25:03.520 --> 0:25:06.080 had heard that he was a guy no no please, 0:25:06.320 --> 0:25:11.840 and somebody bullshit gash me told me, yo, he's talking 0:25:11.880 --> 0:25:14.440 about you. Y know, they're talking about you and they're 0:25:14.440 --> 0:25:17.320 shipping on you, and it was managining every record. But 0:25:17.400 --> 0:25:25.879 when he said there they do because all right, so 0:25:26.480 --> 0:25:29.959 that's would happened. Okay, he's saying that when you got 0:25:30.000 --> 0:25:32.119 to the studio, when you have to student, people are 0:25:32.119 --> 0:25:33.760 saying that, or people are saying that price you get 0:25:33.840 --> 0:25:36.359 into the slide. To me, getting that makes sense because 0:25:36.400 --> 0:25:38.399 you know why because I'm the only one that one 0:25:38.520 --> 0:25:43.760 left field on that record. Listen, I was Mary j 0:25:43.920 --> 0:25:49.359 By So here's a jip. I went to the I 0:25:49.760 --> 0:25:51.720 think I went I was too scared to use the 0:25:51.760 --> 0:25:53.840 interns at this time, so I actually went to the 0:25:53.880 --> 0:25:56.760 store or something myself to go grab some more super cigars. 0:25:56.840 --> 0:25:58.240 Like I didn't know how the studio work. I just 0:25:58.320 --> 0:26:00.119 wanted to rhyme, you know what I'm saying, So I 0:26:00.160 --> 0:26:02.120 didn't want to push nobody's buttons. But by the time 0:26:02.160 --> 0:26:04.920 I came back and when I heard I heard I 0:26:05.040 --> 0:26:07.560 heard your ROM, I had thought, this is this is 0:26:07.640 --> 0:26:10.159 that you cleared a twenty year history for me, for 0:26:10.280 --> 0:26:15.600 me personally, because I'm on the record, and prior to that, 0:26:16.359 --> 0:26:18.560 I didn't see them trying to gas he was I said, 0:26:18.560 --> 0:26:20.359 I didn't see the people. I didn't see Nas, I 0:26:20.400 --> 0:26:25.360 didn't see Jungle, I didn't see Steve Stout like suggesting 0:26:25.400 --> 0:26:27.840 that you go at Beta, right, So I didn't see that. 0:26:28.440 --> 0:26:30.639 So as I came back, you know, I've been't had 0:26:30.720 --> 0:26:34.520 my ROM ready. But then when I heard your mom or, 0:26:34.840 --> 0:26:36.520 I don't know. I think you went first for sure, 0:26:37.480 --> 0:26:40.120 and I just didn't know where they come from, where 0:26:40.160 --> 0:26:43.680 it came from, right, Okay, I'm fucking we we did 0:26:43.760 --> 0:26:46.840 the y sound like ben Bleak story was now heard 0:26:46.920 --> 0:26:49.040 that I know that I was going out of town. 0:26:49.359 --> 0:26:52.560 I heard yo this guy's talking about you. He said 0:26:52.600 --> 0:26:54.760 such and stuff. So they even told me some bullshit, 0:26:54.880 --> 0:26:56.760 but I started to cut you. I'm sorry to stop you. 0:26:56.920 --> 0:26:59.200 But at the time, you you wasn't the member of 0:26:59.280 --> 0:27:01.760 the firm yet. You was just yeah, we said. But 0:27:01.920 --> 0:27:03.720 but I felt like they made me feel like I 0:27:03.840 --> 0:27:06.440 was in competition for this, for the for that pos 0:27:06.840 --> 0:27:09.160 they made me feel like I was in kind You mean, 0:27:09.280 --> 0:27:14.480 you didn't know the powers that So I hear this ship, 0:27:14.840 --> 0:27:18.680 I'm tight as a motherfucker. We go to the studio. 0:27:18.800 --> 0:27:22.960 We got everybody in their clues, Mary, everybody in there, 0:27:23.200 --> 0:27:26.040 and I just decided to just use this record right 0:27:26.160 --> 0:27:29.359 here to to to start some bullshit. I don't know 0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:33.360 start that. I'm not even going. I mean, it's over 0:27:33.400 --> 0:27:35.080 come on, I don't know. It was a whole bunch 0:27:35.160 --> 0:27:37.320 of ship. It was. It was. It was a record 0:27:37.400 --> 0:27:38.800 that had so much of us. I don't think it 0:27:39.800 --> 0:27:42.240 so crazy that even when they blocked out Megan's name, 0:27:42.359 --> 0:27:44.960 you still knew it was not because the street start 0:27:45.000 --> 0:27:49.000 talking at that time, Street start talking, what was coming 0:27:49.000 --> 0:27:52.160 on the player? Come on, you know family like Megan knows, 0:27:52.240 --> 0:27:53.879 and come on, we did it with him it Come on, 0:27:54.280 --> 0:28:00.720 this yeah, I got his phone. It was it was 0:28:00.760 --> 0:28:03.400 the people that was sucking over there. I got something 0:28:04.680 --> 0:28:09.960 you want to go Okay, you don't even know. So 0:28:10.560 --> 0:28:12.840 that was it. That was it, and that was just 0:28:13.160 --> 0:28:16.720 enough for me. I thought at the time, UM, just 0:28:16.840 --> 0:28:19.840 speak my piece, right, So when I speak my piece, 0:28:20.160 --> 0:28:22.080 I knew I'm going out of town. I just thought 0:28:22.119 --> 0:28:24.119 about it. I just didn't didn't think about it. So 0:28:24.280 --> 0:28:25.960 once I fucking I went to l A. I had 0:28:25.960 --> 0:28:27.760 to go to l A. And like two days after 0:28:27.800 --> 0:28:30.680 this where you talking about the l A. So this 0:28:30.800 --> 0:28:33.040 is when I go to l A. I get the call. 0:28:33.400 --> 0:28:38.640 Clue just came outside. Oh my god, it's on and 0:28:38.800 --> 0:28:41.880 soon you getting back. It's on. So I'm like what 0:28:42.960 --> 0:28:44.280 you know what I'm saying, I'm still gonna do it 0:28:44.360 --> 0:28:47.320 blind because I didn't feel that I was the aggressive. 0:28:47.360 --> 0:28:49.880 I felt that I was defending myself. I felt that, yo, 0:28:50.360 --> 0:28:52.120 somebody took a shot and take a shot back. Just 0:28:52.240 --> 0:28:53.560 what we do. This is what we do, you know 0:28:53.560 --> 0:28:55.959 what I mean? It's still it still was nothing personal. 0:28:56.000 --> 0:29:00.560 Was just like I'm feeling myself. We both in the spot, 0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:02.840 but we didn't really know. Question your people that was 0:29:02.920 --> 0:29:06.920 telling you that the you I loved going to the studio. 0:29:07.000 --> 0:29:08.400 I didn't think about that. I was like, oh, you 0:29:08.400 --> 0:29:10.840 said this is true, I said, but what's true? But 0:29:11.080 --> 0:29:13.200 but and this is like I said, like I got 0:29:13.640 --> 0:29:16.560 he's on on standby two. This kay, But this is 0:29:16.640 --> 0:29:18.720 real ship. The thing is about it is we can 0:29:18.760 --> 0:29:21.200 only change our future, our passes, our past. We gotta 0:29:21.240 --> 0:29:23.840 live up to our past right now. Of course it's 0:29:23.880 --> 0:29:25.920 so much s. I don't want to what I did. 0:29:26.200 --> 0:29:28.360 I did, I didn't do, you know what I mean. Now, 0:29:28.400 --> 0:29:30.880 it's not about shut up what but I mean, that's 0:29:31.160 --> 0:29:33.240 that's the ship that happened. And that was my mind state. 0:29:33.320 --> 0:29:36.040 I felt like, no, and nobody's gonna take this away 0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:39.480 from me. This is my first time actually flying out 0:29:39.520 --> 0:29:42.000 of state. Just's my actually getting this big check. This, 0:29:42.120 --> 0:29:43.560 you know what I mean, I'm my mind around. I'm 0:29:43.560 --> 0:29:45.480 still in the hood. It's like when you hear when 0:29:45.480 --> 0:29:47.160 you got your check and still it's like I'm still 0:29:47.200 --> 0:29:51.960 boring crack crack. I'm gonna train with in my pocket, 0:29:52.120 --> 0:29:57.680 like you know what I'm saying. Changed my life for real, 0:29:57.920 --> 0:30:12.040 like real ship. I look, I'm in there with the 0:30:12.160 --> 0:30:14.760 money though, you know what I mean. So I felt 0:30:14.760 --> 0:30:16.480 like I had to protect that, you know what I mean. 0:30:16.880 --> 0:30:18.800 It was It was never nine personal or nothing, but 0:30:18.880 --> 0:30:20.480 I felt like, yeah, you ain't gonna take them from this. 0:30:20.920 --> 0:30:24.480 Life is changing. I got the Cowboy because this is 0:30:25.120 --> 0:30:30.960 my acts. It's cause at that time I needed to know. 0:30:31.560 --> 0:30:38.440 I never really knew. I never really knew, like I thought, 0:30:38.560 --> 0:30:42.040 actually you got gas, I thought, or like or not 0:30:42.200 --> 0:30:44.560 you got gas or somebody gas to just to say that, 0:30:44.680 --> 0:30:46.280 let me tell you that I'm not. I was never 0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:50.200 known as the hustler or the crack seller, so my 0:30:50.360 --> 0:30:52.360 name was never gonna be like, oh you heard your 0:30:52.480 --> 0:30:55.160 nature out there that they didn't even really know some 0:30:55.240 --> 0:30:57.880 people but still called me by my real name, So 0:30:58.280 --> 0:31:01.600 you got real name in the world. The head his 0:31:01.760 --> 0:31:06.400 real name sounds like a superhero Jermain Baxter. Sounds like 0:31:06.600 --> 0:31:10.480 they just put on a case and just like, listen, 0:31:11.760 --> 0:31:17.000 the superhero sneature. But when you go to us, I 0:31:17.120 --> 0:31:22.600 even gave you the slim name with that Alder. The 0:31:22.680 --> 0:31:25.120 dudes that I probably met in the game throughout my 0:31:25.240 --> 0:31:30.640 whole career, the most genuine dude's been this guy that's 0:31:30.680 --> 0:31:33.320 been my guy. So our stories are so intertwined. It's 0:31:33.320 --> 0:31:35.600 like he asked me questions that he probably he knows, 0:31:36.280 --> 0:31:40.080 you know not but you know what I mean. But 0:31:40.680 --> 0:31:42.600 that's how we win as far as on that side. 0:31:42.680 --> 0:31:45.720 So we're becoming notorious on the streets as far as 0:31:45.800 --> 0:31:49.440 the clue. They're putting us together, and then all of 0:31:49.480 --> 0:31:56.480 a sudden, boom, the relationship between Son and Mega falls. 0:31:56.960 --> 0:31:59.120 So when that's when that relationship, this is, this is, 0:31:59.200 --> 0:32:01.960 this is, this is It's important, not only important to me, 0:32:02.040 --> 0:32:07.240 but important to the audience because um, at that moment 0:32:09.400 --> 0:32:11.680 was it wasn't you felt obligated to say, you know what, 0:32:11.880 --> 0:32:14.360 this is my team. They put me in this position. 0:32:14.680 --> 0:32:16.560 Let me take that, let me take that. So it's 0:32:16.600 --> 0:32:19.560 like it's like when Charles walking off, somebody gets traded 0:32:19.600 --> 0:32:21.960 to the next team, Like and you with that next team, 0:32:22.000 --> 0:32:25.720 you want an elbow. That's what it was. This is 0:32:25.760 --> 0:32:30.560 the guy, right, what happened is it's the guy placed something. 0:32:30.640 --> 0:32:33.840 This guy that that's that's basically changing your life, right, 0:32:33.880 --> 0:32:36.959 he has the opportunity to change your life. It's not right, 0:32:37.560 --> 0:32:40.640 but he's going through such a transition that I can't 0:32:40.640 --> 0:32:45.440 be with him every day. So somehow I'm getting connected 0:32:46.000 --> 0:32:50.080 more and more every day with jungle right, because it's 0:32:50.080 --> 0:32:52.040 the same. You know, when it's time to be somewhere, 0:32:52.440 --> 0:32:55.080 it's still coming down the chain of the chain of 0:32:56.040 --> 0:32:59.160 the command. We didn't sign papers to say, hey, you 0:32:59.560 --> 0:33:01.520 and this is where you come into play. We didn't. 0:33:01.560 --> 0:33:04.000 We never signed papers to say, hey, you're gonna be 0:33:04.120 --> 0:33:08.200 my manager or this and that. We're become brothers. And 0:33:08.280 --> 0:33:10.600 at the same time, he's forming a bond with you, 0:33:12.240 --> 0:33:16.240 so we both have the same manager or the same 0:33:16.320 --> 0:33:18.960 guy at the same time. So it's only right that 0:33:19.760 --> 0:33:22.080 me and you start bonding. But mind, I'm older than 0:33:22.120 --> 0:33:24.400 you guys, you know what I mean. But we're all 0:33:24.520 --> 0:33:27.600 for the same ship. You guys have a name before me. 0:33:28.520 --> 0:33:30.400 So I'm still a fan. I don't no matter what, 0:33:30.520 --> 0:33:32.720 I still coach your first ship on you because I'm 0:33:32.760 --> 0:33:35.400 a fan of this. But we're becoming brothers now because 0:33:35.440 --> 0:33:39.760 we all are locked in together. I don't think that's 0:33:39.760 --> 0:33:45.280 deserve a shot. Got got that, souther What happened is 0:33:46.200 --> 0:33:51.080 fucking with track Masters. They designed the Bearsville situation. That's later. 0:33:51.160 --> 0:33:53.200 Hold on, you're going to but this is how it happens. 0:33:53.800 --> 0:33:56.440 Keep up with me, y'all, Keep up, look at the shot, 0:33:56.560 --> 0:33:59.200 Keep up with me. It's done. It's done. God, Okay, 0:33:59.240 --> 0:34:03.280 all right, so God, so after this comes out, because 0:34:03.400 --> 0:34:06.960 that bears mil was after that, right yeah, bears filds 0:34:07.040 --> 0:34:11.640 before any like, right before the firm, and that's when 0:34:11.640 --> 0:34:16.920 I will start my solo. Okay, all let's describe how 0:34:17.040 --> 0:34:22.160 crazy bears Field describe out like, Yo, I've never seen 0:34:22.239 --> 0:34:24.600 no ship like this. Like I said, I'm still counting 0:34:24.640 --> 0:34:27.359 the places I'm going. I'm still new feeling, I'm still hood, 0:34:27.440 --> 0:34:31.640 We're still rough around. And they put this, they designed 0:34:31.680 --> 0:34:33.920 it where as we can go to the studio in 0:34:34.040 --> 0:34:37.440 the woods. You don't you can't leave. There's no stores, 0:34:37.600 --> 0:34:42.040 no store. Anything you need is cater to you. Jail yail, 0:34:42.239 --> 0:34:50.279 and it's and it's me Nori in the house. The 0:34:50.400 --> 0:34:54.160 houses houses the house. Half the house is fifty half 0:34:54.239 --> 0:34:57.759 the houses. Me of problems, I got my I got 0:34:57.800 --> 0:35:00.239 my old Listen. What happened is what happen. Know this 0:35:00.320 --> 0:35:04.279 is real ship track masters are so hot and it 0:35:04.480 --> 0:35:08.600 was so important to them that everybody like listen and 0:35:09.120 --> 0:35:11.279 with them. I was the only artist that wasn't on 0:35:11.480 --> 0:35:16.320 track master. I was so connected with the firm and everything, 0:35:16.520 --> 0:35:18.680 and they couldn't keep up with him. First of all, 0:35:18.880 --> 0:35:22.279 they can't control him and making and making his own 0:35:25.880 --> 0:35:30.680 whatever he needs to do. He has that momentum ready. 0:35:30.760 --> 0:35:32.759 We're still coming in like, oh Ship, you know what 0:35:32.800 --> 0:35:36.960 I'm saying. They followed my league, but um, but they 0:35:37.080 --> 0:35:39.560 lead it. They lead it with me, you know. And 0:35:39.600 --> 0:35:43.239 I remember, I remember, I remember listening to him and Polk. 0:35:43.280 --> 0:35:45.399 I will never forget this conversation to have with him. 0:35:45.400 --> 0:35:49.000 I was like, Yo, I needed Street Dreams and they 0:35:49.120 --> 0:35:51.640 was like, Nope, you ain't gonna get that from us. 0:35:52.040 --> 0:35:55.239 And I said, what, you don't know? What's crazy? At 0:35:55.280 --> 0:36:00.239 that time, all the records that nazis to turn down, 0:36:00.680 --> 0:36:03.719 they used to give him The fifty supposed to be 0:36:03.840 --> 0:36:06.279 reconsiectually be like, oh, Ship, I heard that over here, 0:36:07.160 --> 0:36:09.040 but he got a version of it. And he's creating 0:36:09.080 --> 0:36:11.799 whole songs at the time. Remember he was like really 0:36:11.880 --> 0:36:14.319 doing that. They was going at him because that's when 0:36:14.360 --> 0:36:16.400 they're like, yo, why are you singing? Or why you 0:36:16.960 --> 0:36:18.879 know how to how do you know how to ramp? 0:36:18.960 --> 0:36:21.040 And try to harmonize. It was the game was kind 0:36:21.080 --> 0:36:23.480 of different, but he was right there with us, so 0:36:23.600 --> 0:36:25.440 they was kind of trying to fill in the void. 0:36:26.400 --> 0:36:28.960 We're making this firm album that's supposed to be this 0:36:29.120 --> 0:36:34.920 amazing ship. But we have Nori. That's not a firm. Remember, 0:36:35.680 --> 0:36:39.000 we have cannabis, we have guys. That was kind of 0:36:39.920 --> 0:36:45.120 half half him. Yeah, he's on the desperas you know whatever. 0:36:45.200 --> 0:36:47.960 Steve Styling track Masters was hard. They was gonna throw 0:36:48.000 --> 0:36:49.719 our us. But at the same time we were so 0:36:50.040 --> 0:36:52.840 dope they gotta stop you right there, Steve Style Tracks 0:36:53.040 --> 0:36:55.040 is not bring me in Jungle from me in Yeah, 0:36:55.160 --> 0:36:58.200 I got, But what I'm saying is the politics of 0:36:58.320 --> 0:37:02.239 the game before we stopped, you need to say, you know, 0:37:02.600 --> 0:37:07.600 firm O and all of that. Nori was so dope 0:37:07.680 --> 0:37:10.560 that he was part of one of the dopest songs 0:37:10.640 --> 0:37:13.279 on the joint with me. He actually got to ask 0:37:13.320 --> 0:37:15.120 yourself why there was never a video, why there was 0:37:15.200 --> 0:37:19.160 never that. That's a whole another chapter. Face, brother, he's 0:37:19.160 --> 0:37:24.680 trying to So I'm gonna be honest, this is my 0:37:25.160 --> 0:37:29.880 my brother. Like everybody like Yo, I'm gonna tell you 0:37:30.000 --> 0:37:34.560 something I always say. The transition to my solo career 0:37:34.960 --> 0:37:37.640 was I'm leaving like that ship because that did the 0:37:37.719 --> 0:37:41.160 war report. You know, you've got the blunt spreading. Come on, 0:37:42.360 --> 0:37:50.279 about next time. What you want to blunt? You want 0:37:50.320 --> 0:37:58.400 a motherfucking you know, for the for cancer awareness. That's 0:37:58.719 --> 0:38:00.040 chance in there's a little bit of the book. You 0:38:00.120 --> 0:38:02.360 doing that, Yeah, yeah, yeah, you can grow on small. 0:38:02.680 --> 0:38:05.480 We got the more you ain't got, the more you know. Um. 0:38:05.960 --> 0:38:10.960 So I always say, yeah, understand what's going on right here? Yeah? 0:38:11.800 --> 0:38:15.200 Basically right, you know what's gonna So you got you 0:38:15.480 --> 0:38:18.200 up with the speed, right, you have more spread, then 0:38:18.280 --> 0:38:20.680 listen form let's pick up to the side, regular drinks. 0:38:24.960 --> 0:38:27.920 I'm gonna tell you something, this real ship. After the 0:38:28.040 --> 0:38:34.200 War report, I was stuck. It was called music, purgatory music. 0:38:38.560 --> 0:38:41.120 And for those who don't know what purgatory means, purgatory 0:38:41.200 --> 0:38:43.040 is is that place stuff between heat on the hat. 0:38:44.080 --> 0:38:46.440 You're gone. You don't know if you're gonna make it 0:38:46.520 --> 0:38:51.279 back seven Oh you're gonna make it that. I didn't 0:38:51.320 --> 0:38:53.160 really know I was selling crack. I went back to 0:38:53.200 --> 0:38:56.960 Southern cracks, just fucking do what I know now. It 0:38:57.120 --> 0:39:01.160 was actually on the War Pour, the album trying to 0:39:01.200 --> 0:39:03.759 come music making stucks. Calm down that that story is 0:39:03.840 --> 0:39:05.520 up in the air. After the ax nots. When he 0:39:05.560 --> 0:39:07.120 was here, I was there. I was there at night 0:39:07.160 --> 0:39:09.879 when Eat Eat money Backs, Eat money Back. He raised 0:39:10.239 --> 0:39:12.400 the room. And he wasn't credit on the record in 0:39:12.480 --> 0:39:14.920 the official album. Not No, that's not the truth. He 0:39:15.000 --> 0:39:17.680 wasn't credited for album Love My Life. He was being 0:39:17.719 --> 0:39:21.480 one be stuck on that game. Keep behind the real 0:39:21.520 --> 0:39:24.879 fact that I was. So I was trying to figure 0:39:24.920 --> 0:39:29.680 out how this guy, this guy right here was surviving 0:39:29.800 --> 0:39:34.840 all the ship because I come from the ship and 0:39:35.040 --> 0:39:40.160 this motherfucker came in at every time and delivered such 0:39:40.160 --> 0:39:43.480 an energy and such a ship that I always went 0:39:43.520 --> 0:39:46.680 home like scratching my head, like, Yo, how to thank 0:39:46.719 --> 0:39:53.640 your day? I got? Yeah, you know it's me and 0:39:53.719 --> 0:39:58.799 my train of thought was in the album all right. 0:39:59.440 --> 0:40:02.480 So room is that the money bags was on it. 0:40:02.960 --> 0:40:06.759 NAS didn't like that the money bags was took off 0:40:06.840 --> 0:40:10.759 of it and Tray just put on it. So that's 0:40:10.800 --> 0:40:14.800 the room, all right. The rumor was he wanted to 0:40:14.880 --> 0:40:16.640 make it up. He wanted to make it up to us. 0:40:16.680 --> 0:40:23.319 He want to so so he this is the crazy shit. 0:40:23.760 --> 0:40:26.920 He promised me to come to Miami. Firms didn't go 0:40:27.040 --> 0:40:29.640 to Miami. I'm talking about NAS. Yeah, this is for 0:40:29.719 --> 0:40:31.440 the firm out. This is no one to announced the 0:40:31.520 --> 0:40:35.080 firm I'm not sure at this time, but then the 0:40:35.160 --> 0:40:38.080 Firm album actually comes and I remember it was a 0:40:38.160 --> 0:40:41.080 Nature's session. It was a Tuesday, and it was one 0:40:41.080 --> 0:40:45.000 of million percent Nature's session. So because I flew out 0:40:45.080 --> 0:40:48.040 on my own and when I flew there, his Nature's session, 0:40:48.520 --> 0:40:51.399 and that's how I'm leaving became. And I always felt 0:40:51.480 --> 0:40:54.239 like the brol could have been like, man, funk this 0:40:54.520 --> 0:40:57.800 other dude. Let him get out this fucking session. You 0:40:57.840 --> 0:41:00.240 know what I'm saying. Like when the Beatles played Ilied 0:41:00.560 --> 0:41:04.040 played to be I know this obviously me trappeds his credit? 0:41:04.200 --> 0:41:08.040 Did I believes to be your record? I think he 0:41:08.200 --> 0:41:10.920 was running through beats, running through beast they trying to 0:41:11.080 --> 0:41:15.680 because when we start, can we talking about firm Ship? 0:41:18.000 --> 0:41:22.279 In my opinion, the firm Ship was contractually set up 0:41:22.320 --> 0:41:25.560 to kind of like crash right, meaning when I said that, 0:41:26.200 --> 0:41:29.680 because everybody was on different labels when they reached this 0:41:29.840 --> 0:41:32.239 peak and they decided to put the album out on 0:41:32.400 --> 0:41:37.920 Interscope Records, where nobody was on in the Scope Records labels. 0:41:38.239 --> 0:41:40.960 So the labels say, hell, no, you're not gonna deliver album. 0:41:41.040 --> 0:41:42.840 Give it to this label right here, that's not us 0:41:42.880 --> 0:41:45.480 and make money for us. Here's your stipulation. You can 0:41:45.520 --> 0:41:47.319 only be on a certain amount of records. You can 0:41:47.360 --> 0:41:49.839 only probably be on three records. So if you listen 0:41:49.880 --> 0:41:53.480 to the album, the person that's not signed filling all 0:41:53.600 --> 0:41:57.040 the void, which happened to be me. So the outside 0:41:57.080 --> 0:41:59.800 people looked at it if it was like my album, you, 0:42:00.040 --> 0:42:02.920 I mean from from from the way that it was labeled. 0:42:03.000 --> 0:42:04.600 You couldn't just say it was the firm. You have 0:42:04.719 --> 0:42:09.560 to say it's nas Asy Foxy Brown presents the front right. 0:42:10.600 --> 0:42:13.560 And since they did that, and Sony was like, nah, 0:42:13.800 --> 0:42:16.040 you're not nas. You can't deliver another album to in 0:42:16.120 --> 0:42:18.439 the scope. You gotta kind of do this, Yeah, you gotta, 0:42:18.480 --> 0:42:21.440 you gotta do this our way. So I was the 0:42:21.480 --> 0:42:23.880 person that filled in the gap. If it was probably 0:42:23.960 --> 0:42:26.000 called Mega at the time, it might have been called Mega. 0:42:26.040 --> 0:42:27.840 But if Omega wasn't on depth him and they might 0:42:27.920 --> 0:42:31.120 have said the same ship too. I didn't have no paperwork. 0:42:31.560 --> 0:42:34.279 So at this time I'm filling in records and I'm 0:42:34.440 --> 0:42:37.279 vibing with this guy. I got stories with my first 0:42:37.320 --> 0:42:40.399 time in California with this guy. Remember, I remember one 0:42:40.440 --> 0:42:43.880 time I was in the studio and these guys left 0:42:44.000 --> 0:42:47.960 me right him and Jungle left me, and then they 0:42:48.040 --> 0:42:50.080 came back into the studio while I'm still in there 0:42:50.160 --> 0:42:53.560 right in the record with brand new sneakers and branding right, 0:42:53.840 --> 0:42:57.000 and they had my sneakers handing outside the door. So 0:42:57.080 --> 0:42:58.800 they came in like, hey, we weren't shot and we 0:42:58.880 --> 0:43:01.920 were fresh. We got this. I'm like, oh, I can't leave, 0:43:01.960 --> 0:43:04.080 you know, I couldn't leave. There's act like they had 0:43:04.120 --> 0:43:06.920 no speakers for me and fucking boom. Here at the 0:43:07.000 --> 0:43:14.360 rand New Rand New the only hand day. It was 0:43:14.400 --> 0:43:17.640 a party, Dre and I was having a party and 0:43:17.800 --> 0:43:20.600 Nori was the person that said, I want to go 0:43:20.680 --> 0:43:23.680 to Compton. I want to see Compton. I don't care 0:43:23.719 --> 0:43:26.960 if I'm nothing else right, And Jungle goes to this 0:43:27.120 --> 0:43:32.239 party with the same sekers on and the same basketball 0:43:32.320 --> 0:43:34.680 jerseys on. Mean why the whole party got on suits 0:43:34.719 --> 0:43:38.000 and ties. And this guy goes to party in Compton 0:43:38.160 --> 0:43:41.720 comes back talking about, Yo, these guys that shower caps 0:43:41.760 --> 0:43:50.000 on them. Everyone he wanted to know. I used to go. 0:43:51.680 --> 0:43:53.680 I said, what, I want to go and see the 0:43:53.760 --> 0:43:58.399 actual woods. He's like, party, I want to go to those, 0:43:59.120 --> 0:44:00.839 That's what I mean, Like, Yo, this is some real 0:44:01.040 --> 0:44:03.840 this is my brother right here. I don't remember what. 0:44:05.040 --> 0:44:08.440 They're sitting the corners with shower cap. I was like, 0:44:08.960 --> 0:44:10.880 New York, never heard of no ship like that. I 0:44:10.920 --> 0:44:12.920 love it. I love so. But let's just tell these 0:44:13.000 --> 0:44:17.440 guys right, so we walk in. Now, I think you're 0:44:17.520 --> 0:44:20.160 used to this. Now me hearing your story, Now you're 0:44:20.200 --> 0:44:22.160 like a great actor, because I thought like you were 0:44:22.280 --> 0:44:24.640 just used, like because we were sitting there. Dr Dre's 0:44:24.680 --> 0:44:27.879 like this neue nature and I'm looking like holy ship. 0:44:28.920 --> 0:44:30.640 But you know, I'm trying to keep about to say 0:44:30.680 --> 0:44:38.080 I'm not stop. He's rolling joint force. This is real 0:44:38.200 --> 0:44:44.680 ship head just buying handy force every night, every night 0:44:44.760 --> 0:44:46.840 he just got married, you know, shots to Dr Ja. 0:44:46.960 --> 0:44:50.920 I know, I know he's about to get Dr Dre James, Well, 0:44:54.520 --> 0:44:58.920 I gotta shot. Let's take side of the real ship. 0:44:59.000 --> 0:45:03.680 The word about the s it comes from the ship. 0:45:04.360 --> 0:45:06.120 You know what I mean. We're running around trying to 0:45:06.920 --> 0:45:10.279 we're trying to make yourself and ship like that. And 0:45:10.360 --> 0:45:13.560 every night Dr Dre just got married by us. Henny, 0:45:14.200 --> 0:45:17.120 he's rolling us joints and pretty much the ball the 0:45:17.400 --> 0:45:19.400 bullets in our court, you know what I'm saying. But 0:45:20.600 --> 0:45:23.680 Nori comes in. We do I'm leaving. We know it's 0:45:23.719 --> 0:45:27.160 a banger. I know it's a banging because if you 0:45:27.280 --> 0:45:30.480 correct me, if I'm wrong. This is what happened to 0:45:30.560 --> 0:45:33.400 me and my thing. I was my session supposed to 0:45:33.440 --> 0:45:36.799 be Wednesday. I landed on a Tuesday because I had 0:45:36.840 --> 0:45:40.560 to fly to JFK JF Kick Up the Dells Fly 0:45:40.880 --> 0:45:45.080 Tuesday yourself. We had. It was it was that type 0:45:45.120 --> 0:45:50.120 of party we went. It was the session nat just 0:45:50.160 --> 0:45:56.080 finished these clue sessions natives to me. To me, You're 0:45:56.120 --> 0:45:57.800 probably looking at me like I got a name, but 0:45:57.840 --> 0:46:00.400 I'm looking at you like you're the hottest stink in 0:46:00.440 --> 0:46:02.160 the world, Like you know what I'm saying. It's not 0:46:02.480 --> 0:46:07.400 then it's you, So correct me from wrong. In my opinion, 0:46:07.719 --> 0:46:11.359 the drever was playing it and engineering so he said 0:46:11.440 --> 0:46:13.239 he said, I forget what he said. He said, Yo, 0:46:13.320 --> 0:46:15.080 you got something for this, and I was to the 0:46:15.160 --> 0:46:18.399 side and I was like, he was like, I don't 0:46:18.440 --> 0:46:20.520 even know how you announced my name. I know it's wrong, 0:46:21.320 --> 0:46:27.120 Like how Yeah, So I went to that opening to 0:46:27.160 --> 0:46:29.920 go through that. You know what I'm saying things I 0:46:30.960 --> 0:46:33.759 would try to but anyway it might for you tell 0:46:33.800 --> 0:46:38.920 me and this is the reason why this is I'm leaving. 0:46:39.000 --> 0:46:44.120 It wasn't what I'm leaving. There's no band from TV. Yeah, 0:46:44.160 --> 0:46:46.879 I'm leaving. I felt that he bodied it. I'm leaving, 0:46:47.360 --> 0:46:52.680 I think still coming from it from a literal standpoint, 0:46:52.760 --> 0:46:55.360 and he's coming from it from five. He just he 0:46:55.520 --> 0:46:58.160 knows how to just set the vibe. And so that's 0:46:58.200 --> 0:47:00.160 why when it came down the band from TV, when 0:47:00.200 --> 0:47:03.600 we get there, okay, it was time to set the vibe. Like, Yo, 0:47:03.760 --> 0:47:07.200 it's a difference between um ran from dope rhymes and 0:47:07.400 --> 0:47:11.440 like you're creating something that yeah something, let me just 0:47:11.480 --> 0:47:16.239 say this everywhere back and I'm leaving. I'm leaving. Listen. 0:47:16.320 --> 0:47:19.120 At any moment, Nature could have been like, Yo, wait 0:47:19.160 --> 0:47:20.960 a minute, this is my session. This is why I 0:47:21.080 --> 0:47:22.960 funk with you. That's why I love you to this day. 0:47:23.480 --> 0:47:25.640 It's because at any time that was his session. It 0:47:25.760 --> 0:47:28.279 was a Tuesday. My session wasn't to a Wednesday. That's 0:47:28.280 --> 0:47:31.960 when Bloody Money Part two came out. That's what that says. 0:47:32.080 --> 0:47:34.840 I was. I'm saying you. I'm saying, come on, I 0:47:35.000 --> 0:47:37.279 don't get none of this. I forget. I can forgive 0:47:37.280 --> 0:47:47.440 you everything I just did. But so that session with 0:47:48.160 --> 0:47:50.759 Ill Kill You Not, I had these rhymes. The reason 0:47:50.800 --> 0:47:52.960 why I no, we know this and nor we know that? Yo, 0:47:53.080 --> 0:47:55.719 but no we know God why that I can make 0:47:55.719 --> 0:47:58.319 your famous? The reason why I said it, I don't 0:47:58.360 --> 0:48:00.360 think it was. I don't know seeing this the greatest 0:48:00.400 --> 0:48:02.640 live was the reason why I said it because those 0:48:02.800 --> 0:48:06.600 rhymes was originally on the Warry coord album. That was 0:48:06.680 --> 0:48:18.360 a whole record. I m so so from so it 0:48:18.520 --> 0:48:31.360 was crazy. Didn't know it? Yeah right, okay, so so 0:48:31.520 --> 0:48:35.239 yeah yeah, um, so that's the reason was. And I 0:48:35.360 --> 0:48:38.239 remember because I remember, I feel like Dre was right 0:48:38.280 --> 0:48:40.480 there like I did it perfect the first time and 0:48:40.560 --> 0:48:42.640 he was like, you gotta do it over and I 0:48:42.800 --> 0:48:45.160 was like, it's that because it's perfect, but I'm Dr 0:48:45.280 --> 0:48:47.520 Dre and I didn't understand what he meant and I 0:48:47.640 --> 0:48:49.919 did it like several more times or whatever, right, mom. 0:48:51.360 --> 0:48:56.440 The bottom line is that record from me into a 0:48:56.600 --> 0:48:58.680 whole other level. It brom me to it, and it 0:48:58.840 --> 0:49:02.080 was crazy because I was like, you know, coming up 0:49:02.120 --> 0:49:04.920 in and and what we was doing still even though 0:49:04.920 --> 0:49:06.960 I had an album out, but it was like that 0:49:07.320 --> 0:49:11.880 differentiated me from everyone else that record, yes, and I 0:49:11.960 --> 0:49:13.279 was mad. I was like he got me on that 0:49:15.080 --> 0:49:17.279 This is the book runs up to the band from TV. 0:49:18.160 --> 0:49:20.480 So you remember what studio? He is a bad from TV, 0:49:21.239 --> 0:49:23.480 But I don't remember. I had dog was there. I 0:49:23.520 --> 0:49:26.080 remember the night when when we first came to do 0:49:26.200 --> 0:49:28.520 them from TV, which turned into being from TV. That 0:49:28.640 --> 0:49:31.080 wasn't the beat, that's right. It's because of you. That 0:49:31.239 --> 0:49:37.680 wasn't to be like like y'all naked your faith, like, look, 0:49:37.719 --> 0:49:40.280 I gotta do a bega what you want my album? 0:49:40.440 --> 0:49:43.319 Remember you gotta go first. You walked out the room. 0:49:43.719 --> 0:49:44.960 He was like, all right, god, do what you do? 0:49:45.480 --> 0:49:47.440 Boom And I was switting there smoking weed and I 0:49:47.480 --> 0:49:48.759 hack a dog with me and I was like, you 0:49:48.800 --> 0:49:51.000 know what. I wanted to show him that I could 0:49:51.080 --> 0:49:53.480 fucking stop a mudhole and this beach. That's true. I 0:49:53.920 --> 0:49:57.399 know this is true. Listen. I had to Swiss beat 0:49:57.400 --> 0:50:00.040 because you got me, because you got me on. Just 0:50:00.200 --> 0:50:03.040 get you what you did. This is the crazy thing 0:50:03.480 --> 0:50:05.919 we didn't we did. It's Electric Lady, by the way. 0:50:07.400 --> 0:50:09.680 The studio that I wasn't really good in there I was. 0:50:09.880 --> 0:50:15.000 I was doing my studio, Jimmy studio, the studio with 0:50:15.080 --> 0:50:19.320 the cat allerged tout in the world and woke by me. 0:50:19.520 --> 0:50:22.839 And that's not because Jimmy will tell you why why 0:50:22.920 --> 0:50:26.360 I felt a certain way. I'm telling you way because 0:50:26.440 --> 0:50:30.920 because no one else, because because he's right there with me. 0:50:31.400 --> 0:50:34.280 Right But at the same time, he's not just by himself. 0:50:34.400 --> 0:50:37.280 He kind of has a little people. He has shipped 0:50:37.280 --> 0:50:40.200 in perspective, has people like you're gonna do this, You're 0:50:40.239 --> 0:50:42.320 gonna book the studio, You're gonna do this. And I 0:50:42.400 --> 0:50:45.600 didn't have none of that. But some fucking rhymes, man, 0:50:45.760 --> 0:50:48.680 and he had the business sense of it back then. 0:50:49.360 --> 0:50:53.880 So to hear your this, Nick is not making a mistake. 0:50:54.080 --> 0:50:56.440 Why didn't Why do they love him? He's fucking oh man, 0:50:56.880 --> 0:50:58.920 you know he's not the most lirical guy. He got 0:50:59.160 --> 0:51:02.560 he gotta stab but no, that's how he was. We 0:51:02.640 --> 0:51:05.920 came up in that competitive that but and he just 0:51:06.080 --> 0:51:08.200 got me on the last record we did, so I 0:51:08.360 --> 0:51:11.200 have to get him. So now he plays his speech 0:51:11.239 --> 0:51:16.960 and I didn't know this. Swiss comes in, So the 0:51:17.000 --> 0:51:19.439 first beat isn't Swiss, Just to be I believe old 0:51:19.480 --> 0:51:23.000 beats free time. I'm meeting Swiss, just the guy with 0:51:23.080 --> 0:51:25.360 this funnel, Swiss, the guy with the funny notes. He 0:51:25.480 --> 0:51:33.360 was we know you don't don't even saying this. He 0:51:33.520 --> 0:51:35.840 has his ship in the order, he knows producers names, 0:51:35.960 --> 0:51:38.319 he knows he knows certain ships, and I'm like, damn, 0:51:38.640 --> 0:51:41.080 I don't know that. You know, you know he has 0:51:41.160 --> 0:51:56.080 this relationship with people before before back there shot. So 0:51:56.239 --> 0:51:58.319 Swiss comes in and he plays this due and I say, 0:51:58.400 --> 0:52:00.880 you know what, this makes me feel like a superhero. 0:52:01.040 --> 0:52:03.920 This band from TV BET And I'm saying to my man, 0:52:04.200 --> 0:52:08.759 you know what, watch this. Nor leaves the room. I 0:52:08.880 --> 0:52:10.960 write the rhyme this is probably you know what I'm 0:52:10.960 --> 0:52:13.160 feeling it because I like to see with me sometimes 0:52:13.160 --> 0:52:15.719 I was with the beat. Come back in the house. 0:52:16.239 --> 0:52:18.880 He stopped on a second and passing right back. We're 0:52:18.920 --> 0:52:22.920 gonna do three of the fires. I threw away so 0:52:23.160 --> 0:52:26.040 much rhyme because I wrote the rhymes to the beat. 0:52:26.520 --> 0:52:31.000 So I'm mad. I'm mad at this dude. So uh 0:52:31.760 --> 0:52:36.600 like Grace Lapious was of course the street. So I 0:52:36.760 --> 0:52:38.759 go down I go down there, and I remember that's 0:52:38.800 --> 0:52:41.000 Punt's favorite ship. So I just hit point when he's 0:52:41.040 --> 0:52:42.600 on a two way or something like yo, you know, 0:52:42.680 --> 0:52:44.880 we were a course free from Grace Vapious. So the 0:52:44.960 --> 0:52:48.560 punt is an idiot. He fucking I never said comes 0:52:48.560 --> 0:52:50.560 from grace for pious. I just said, you know, just 0:52:50.680 --> 0:52:52.360 you know, I'll just thinking about you. You know what 0:52:52.360 --> 0:52:56.480 I'm said, great pious. So when when Nate I come 0:52:56.520 --> 0:53:00.320 back in and you know, I can see Swiss, he's rest. 0:53:01.160 --> 0:53:06.359 So Swiss only played this is what happened. Swiss only 0:53:06.480 --> 0:53:11.160 played the loop the sample. The actually beat never dropped. 0:53:11.600 --> 0:53:14.120 So the whole time I got nature in there, and 0:53:14.160 --> 0:53:16.399 it's a vibe. I know this nigga now, So it's 0:53:16.400 --> 0:53:19.799 a vibe if he's feeling something he liked, if he's 0:53:19.800 --> 0:53:23.680 feeling something up. So he didn't do that for three beats. 0:53:23.719 --> 0:53:26.040 I don't told him this is a this is I 0:53:26.160 --> 0:53:30.880 think in my mind like doing a little coming on 0:53:31.040 --> 0:53:33.680 like the rider anthems. And I'm like, no, you don't 0:53:33.800 --> 0:53:38.200 like and he's like, you know, I'm wrong. But the 0:53:38.400 --> 0:53:42.120 band from TV came on and he just jumped up 0:53:42.719 --> 0:53:45.160 because he walked to the corner. And that's the moment 0:53:45.200 --> 0:53:47.279 I walked out. I said, he got this. I said 0:53:47.320 --> 0:53:50.080 that the yalla's back on to y'alla and I went 0:53:50.480 --> 0:53:56.800 and subconsciously I see plun I said, I told you 0:53:56.920 --> 0:54:00.360 I was by grade capires like I didn't even bite you. 0:54:01.560 --> 0:54:04.800 I'm thinking that record. I'm thinking that record. What's just 0:54:05.000 --> 0:54:07.840 gonna be me and him. I'm taking me, gonna go 0:54:07.960 --> 0:54:10.440 back and forth, right, So I lay a verse. He 0:54:11.239 --> 0:54:13.279 walks out the room. I feel good about this verse. 0:54:13.520 --> 0:54:16.480 I lay a verse right, and then I go home. 0:54:16.640 --> 0:54:18.560 He has he has paper, he has rhymes on the 0:54:18.600 --> 0:54:23.239 paper already. Yes, I'm gonna just take this home. Money. 0:54:23.239 --> 0:54:24.759 You know, I'm gonna fix it. I'm gonna get it right, 0:54:24.800 --> 0:54:26.359 you know what I mean. So I'm like, alight, cool, 0:54:26.480 --> 0:54:32.439 he gonna go do what he do. Yes, records, all 0:54:32.600 --> 0:54:40.480 these guys are all the pros, right when you know, 0:54:40.680 --> 0:54:48.960 like I said, I got you, I wanted to change. Yeah. Hell, 0:54:49.160 --> 0:54:51.640 he's called me for months. I want to change my verse. 0:54:52.000 --> 0:54:53.800 And they heard and they started me. They got me. 0:54:53.880 --> 0:54:55.600 I was on. I was just doing that. This is 0:54:55.680 --> 0:54:58.880 not exactly this is exactly what that from TV. And 0:54:58.920 --> 0:55:01.800 I'm glad and Jada and God bless me, wish we 0:55:01.960 --> 0:55:03.680 had punt here in camp. But take the same thing. 0:55:04.440 --> 0:55:07.719 What happened was like I said, I didn't like the 0:55:07.760 --> 0:55:11.160 smell of cigarettes. I love smoking cigarettes. I didn't like 0:55:11.239 --> 0:55:16.279 the smell and we we go on the d We 0:55:16.400 --> 0:55:20.920 were the guys that when met him and Jungle only 0:55:21.000 --> 0:55:23.799 brothers came out.

I just gave Pun what was considered a 0:55:36.880 --> 0:55:38.600 text back then. I think it's a two way page 0:55:38.840 --> 0:55:41.680 like bo pary Pies. I'm thinking there's seven Grape of 0:55:41.719 --> 0:55:43.919 Pies in the city. I'm not thinking he's gonna narrow 0:55:44.000 --> 0:55:46.360 down to the point that we're the real one. D 0:55:50.040 --> 0:55:54.360 f y. So as Nake starts to feel it, he's correct, 0:55:54.440 --> 0:55:58.040 I've walked out.

But 1:00:00.520 --> 1:00:02.280 I will always be thinking just saying, you know, I 1:00:02.360 --> 1:00:04.520 knew that if I ever did this interview due to 1:00:04.600 --> 1:00:08.800 the fact that me and is stories are sold in 1:00:08.880 --> 1:00:12.520 the twine. You know what I mean. No matter what 1:00:12.720 --> 1:00:15.400 if if Sun said the buildings on fire, I'm coming 1:00:15.480 --> 1:00:19.800 with the holes. That's just how it goes. But I 1:00:19.800 --> 1:00:21.560 ain't gonna lot though. You remember the time me and 1:00:21.600 --> 1:00:25.880 now I stole your record. Yeah, I came in there. 1:00:26.560 --> 1:00:29.200 I came in, I had a session. I walked in 1:00:29.280 --> 1:00:34.160 the session. Him and Nas have damn the three piece 1:00:34.440 --> 1:00:38.600 on my beat, and so so I'm like, get the 1:00:38.640 --> 1:00:43.000 funk out of here. First I left. I left. The 1:00:43.080 --> 1:00:45.840 guys are going there going hard on my after versus 1:00:46.280 --> 1:00:49.440 on my joint. I leave the studio, you know, And 1:00:49.720 --> 1:00:51.200 then they said, Yo, you gotta find a way on 1:00:51.280 --> 1:00:56.960 this record record. By this time they go, they traded shot. 1:00:58.920 --> 1:01:01.800 So I had to take one of Nas and one 1:01:02.120 --> 1:01:05.440 oft get me. Rick, I would tell the story a 1:01:05.520 --> 1:01:08.480 little bit better. I got you, but it was my 1:01:08.680 --> 1:01:19.600 sens rights your brother. You know what I'm saying, because 1:01:19.920 --> 1:01:22.440 because I'm I'm I'm moving around with these guys. You 1:01:22.520 --> 1:01:25.080 know what I'm saying. And at the same time, you know, 1:01:26.080 --> 1:01:28.280 these guys are younger than me, but they're making their 1:01:28.480 --> 1:01:31.959 own lane. They're making their lane every time they're making 1:01:32.000 --> 1:01:35.560 their own land, and they just took my beat. Lets 1:01:35.560 --> 1:01:38.720 stop lap, let's just stop laughing. Maybe maybe I can 1:01:45.040 --> 1:01:54.600 three verses a piece, was like original, I should gonna 1:01:54.640 --> 1:01:57.520 be got six verses of me like it's like fighting 1:01:59.200 --> 1:02:02.760 so well that it was again like no, because I 1:02:02.760 --> 1:02:05.800 ain't gonna lie. I gotta give this a regime up, 1:02:05.880 --> 1:02:09.840 Steve Stout. NAS track masters when it was an album 1:02:09.960 --> 1:02:12.640 were supposed to dedicate a whole energy to the album. 1:02:13.280 --> 1:02:15.680 You know that was that was it? So so what 1:02:15.760 --> 1:02:18.960 appum was? I just felt like Nate was just he 1:02:19.120 --> 1:02:21.560 was just didn't want to work that night. But me 1:02:21.680 --> 1:02:23.680 and NAS didn't even come to work that night. We 1:02:23.800 --> 1:02:27.240 just came to like chill. But then it's be play 1:02:28.120 --> 1:02:31.360 it's called and it was fucked up because me and 1:02:31.440 --> 1:02:33.760 I've never said that to each other at all. It 1:02:33.920 --> 1:02:36.120 was just a virgo ship. He looked at me. I 1:02:36.160 --> 1:02:40.960 looked at him. I was like, I wrote four balls 1:02:41.080 --> 1:02:45.880 already he was and they got but we was waiting 1:02:45.920 --> 1:02:48.960 for you to get tired to you like they got 1:02:50.560 --> 1:02:53.680 y'all gonna see yall to the mall type ship bro 1:02:55.840 --> 1:03:03.240 left right. What I'm saying that I think it's when 1:03:03.240 --> 1:03:06.200 you leave as the sign and every day. But we 1:03:06.240 --> 1:03:07.919 just looked like they're gonna keep it going. Just don't 1:03:07.920 --> 1:03:11.200 worry about the sign. I think it was me. If 1:03:11.240 --> 1:03:13.240 you look at the regular I think I'm the one 1:03:13.240 --> 1:03:17.320 of the first sentator, So sorry name if I think 1:03:17.360 --> 1:03:18.840 it was me. And and now I just looked at me, 1:03:18.920 --> 1:03:22.520 like what, and I said. We just kept going. And 1:03:22.640 --> 1:03:24.520 then the next day he was in the studio. Day 1:03:24.640 --> 1:03:29.000 was the It was amazing. Let's make a look at me, 1:03:32.840 --> 1:03:34.919 don't right? You know what I'm saying. Like I said, 1:03:34.960 --> 1:03:38.200 we didn't realize what were building, but we had guys 1:03:38.280 --> 1:03:43.040 that was basically creating in lane for me, showing me 1:03:43.360 --> 1:03:47.760 what was supposed to be. That's why twenty years later, motherfuck, 1:03:47.960 --> 1:03:56.000 we're still broken about it. You can laugh about it. 1:03:56.080 --> 1:03:57.960 It might be little things that I remember, the little 1:03:58.000 --> 1:04:00.280 things that he remember. You know. By then, the day 1:04:00.480 --> 1:04:03.400 I know that if anybody got my back, I got 1:04:03.440 --> 1:04:06.840 my back. Now I know the answer to this, but 1:04:06.960 --> 1:04:10.520 for lack of a m you know, the Nazis dropped 1:04:10.520 --> 1:04:14.680 the album. This album, I forget the name of the record, 1:04:14.760 --> 1:04:20.840 but want to ask, can you explain to the people. 1:04:20.880 --> 1:04:23.040 I know the answer, but can you explain to people? 1:04:23.080 --> 1:04:25.320 I mean, I don't necessarily know the answer. I know 1:04:25.480 --> 1:04:28.480 that it was it's his call. We're growing, we make 1:04:28.800 --> 1:04:31.600 records that we want to do. At the time when 1:04:31.640 --> 1:04:35.000 he was doing, he was wanted to do. UM. I 1:04:35.080 --> 1:04:37.760 didn't get the call, and I understand that I wasn't 1:04:37.800 --> 1:04:41.480 a part of the original from that's that's not a 1:04:41.560 --> 1:04:44.320 part of the original firm talk. So I don't get mad. 1:04:44.800 --> 1:04:48.000 I would prefer not to have got the call, then 1:04:48.120 --> 1:04:50.640 to have laid some dope bad ship and heard that yo, 1:04:50.800 --> 1:04:54.360 they took you off your or some crazy ship. So anytime, 1:04:54.600 --> 1:05:00.040 any time, anytime my guys strike, we strike. So I 1:05:00.120 --> 1:05:03.160 have no choice but to be happy because we're Rocket's 1:05:03.200 --> 1:05:04.920 Queen's bridged back on the map again. You know what 1:05:04.960 --> 1:05:07.480 I'm saying. It's all kinds of things like that. I 1:05:07.520 --> 1:05:10.440 don't know what's what, what what happens from this day forward, 1:05:10.600 --> 1:05:12.959 but I'm not to do that walks around better because 1:05:13.000 --> 1:05:16.080 when you win, I win because our stories, our time 1:05:16.640 --> 1:05:26.600 we're together, we're all together, were fact that you see that.

It's a business, Calle, This is a business. 1:05:30.800 --> 1:05:32.520 So at the end of the day, I'm happy for 1:05:32.760 --> 1:05:36.000 Mega because Mega didn't get the chance to do nothing. 1:05:37.000 --> 1:05:38.440 You know what I'm saying, none of that ship.

And then me and 1:12:43.600 --> 1:12:46.880 Sean started doing these little songs together, you know what 1:12:46.920 --> 1:12:48.559 I mean. He asked me to give him some beats. 1:12:48.640 --> 1:12:51.600 He started collaborating, and the next thing you know, he 1:12:51.800 --> 1:12:55.800 um put out on monkey Bars and one song on 1:12:55.920 --> 1:12:59.560 it was called Rises to the Top. That song was 1:12:59.760 --> 1:13:04.000 on Grand That photo three was so over seventeen me. 1:13:05.479 --> 1:13:12.200 Hold on, I'm on that soundtrack to the video game. 1:13:12.280 --> 1:13:16.800 You know they made um that's the first time they 1:13:16.920 --> 1:13:18.920 it was. He was able to end the rack and like, 1:13:19.600 --> 1:13:23.000 you know, go outside the storylines and beat somebody up 1:13:23.120 --> 1:13:27.680 and do you know you know, you know, so when 1:13:27.680 --> 1:13:30.240 they had so when they had the when they made 1:13:30.320 --> 1:13:33.559 the soundtrack, they had to look for hip hop artists 1:13:33.640 --> 1:13:36.479 and him and me. If you look at it right now, 1:13:36.560 --> 1:13:40.080 you buy the game right now. My name is on 1:13:40.160 --> 1:13:42.240 it and his name is on it too. Let me 1:13:42.280 --> 1:13:43.439 ask you, let me see what it up to you 1:13:43.720 --> 1:13:45.920 back to it's crazy that treat you really on it? Um, 1:13:46.840 --> 1:13:49.439 all right? The first album was All Seasons. Yeah, for 1:13:49.680 --> 1:13:52.599 all Seasons, baby, All Seasons. Now, that was the album 1:13:52.640 --> 1:13:55.720 he was working on the Bisville all that was. Yeah, 1:13:55.760 --> 1:14:00.360 that's my very first album. Um, what had happened, you know, 1:14:00.400 --> 1:14:04.360 because it's sorry to be on that note already, but um, yeah, 1:14:05.479 --> 1:14:08.840 the album came out in two thousands. But what had 1:14:08.880 --> 1:14:13.640 happened was the album was finished in so a lot 1:14:13.720 --> 1:14:17.360 of the so a lot of the songs that came 1:14:17.400 --> 1:14:20.400 out on the album were actually heard already. They were 1:14:20.560 --> 1:14:24.080 they were they wound up on mixtapes without the choruses 1:14:24.200 --> 1:14:26.560 on them, and and and you know, I understand that 1:14:26.640 --> 1:14:29.200 the game was kind of a little little tricky. It 1:14:29.320 --> 1:14:31.880 was tricky. So when we put the album out, the 1:14:31.960 --> 1:14:36.840 songs was already two years old. And so I'm trying 1:14:36.880 --> 1:14:39.640 to convince the people that it's just dope, and um. 1:14:39.760 --> 1:14:41.200 We had a lot of problems when it came down 1:14:41.280 --> 1:14:44.600 to create my first album because it was sample clearances, 1:14:44.840 --> 1:14:49.800 it was, it was, it was songs that was released premature, 1:14:50.920 --> 1:14:52.840 it was, it was. It was a lot of you know, 1:14:53.200 --> 1:14:55.720 crazy ship. So when we put the album out, it 1:14:55.840 --> 1:14:59.439 was already fighting the battle because the songs had already 1:14:59.479 --> 1:15:02.280 been heard and some of the songs that I was 1:15:02.400 --> 1:15:06.759 banking on was either wasn't cleared or they was released 1:15:07.000 --> 1:15:14.200 or whatever. So so we went from you know, sugar 1:15:14.280 --> 1:15:16.960 the ship that fast, and went from and went from 1:15:17.200 --> 1:15:20.680 being this guy that they you know, projecting to be 1:15:20.800 --> 1:15:25.000 the guy to hold on that dropping the album that 1:15:25.200 --> 1:15:28.280 we heard already and we said the time like he 1:15:28.360 --> 1:15:31.320 was better with the games. It was very very very 1:15:31.479 --> 1:15:33.559 well now about the game with the guys that were 1:15:33.680 --> 1:15:37.640 kind of I was dealing with. I didn't understand, you know, 1:15:37.840 --> 1:15:40.680 being able to deliver on time and to to to 1:15:41.479 --> 1:15:45.560 then it was the business. So I over recorded. I 1:15:45.680 --> 1:15:49.040 recorded like maybe two albums were from material and some 1:15:49.160 --> 1:15:52.240 ship wasn't clean and some ship was played already and 1:15:52.840 --> 1:15:55.519 it was different versions of things. It was a lot 1:15:55.560 --> 1:15:57.000 of problems when it came down to the mind. So 1:15:57.040 --> 1:15:59.720 when it finally did land, it was like, hey, I 1:15:59.800 --> 1:16:01.559 heard just already. It was a lot of a lot 1:16:01.600 --> 1:16:03.880 of the hype had died down. So it's kind of 1:16:03.960 --> 1:16:07.760 dating exactly, and so you know we ran into that 1:16:07.840 --> 1:16:09.800 type of ship. But it was it was you got 1:16:10.760 --> 1:16:14.000 you ever the time. It was just bit old, just 1:16:14.160 --> 1:16:18.679 like you know one question. The one thing that problem 1:16:19.000 --> 1:16:20.720 that was a problem for me when it came down 1:16:20.800 --> 1:16:26.160 to that was being a current event kind of guy, 1:16:26.479 --> 1:16:33.360 being shock class. Let's go, yeah, you give me one 1:16:33.479 --> 1:16:38.040 what you know. The problem the problem that came with 1:16:38.200 --> 1:16:40.639 that was like since I was like a current event 1:16:40.760 --> 1:16:43.800 kind of guy, if I waited too long, it got 1:16:43.840 --> 1:16:47.320 too old. You got too old. You gotta talk. You 1:16:47.360 --> 1:16:51.560 got certain because that that was that was serious. That 1:16:51.640 --> 1:16:53.080 was the key to your ship. Like you you were 1:16:53.080 --> 1:16:55.519 talking about like like like certain things that happened to 1:16:55.560 --> 1:17:02.720 the balls. So if you got we spend pep. So 1:17:02.880 --> 1:17:04.559 that was the problem when it came down the same 1:17:04.720 --> 1:17:08.600 dates and saying certain ships. So you know that that 1:17:08.720 --> 1:17:10.280 was my ship. I had to learn that. You know, 1:17:10.920 --> 1:17:13.880 that was cool. This guy right here when you shot 1:17:13.920 --> 1:17:24.000 that we're gonna don't get your shot shot Booze Brothers, 1:17:24.040 --> 1:17:25.600 what up. I'm gonna keep you one hundred.

The industry is like some kind 1:17:41.680 --> 1:17:44.439 of different brotherhood now and I never stopped fighting. That 1:17:44.600 --> 1:17:49.000 just what my aunt showed me some equipment whatever it 1:17:49.160 --> 1:17:52.400 is ntc whatever that was.

Whatever I can't do, be that 1:20:22.840 --> 1:20:25.960 greatness in each other's lives because I did it for PMB. 1:20:26.479 --> 1:20:28.400 You know when you broke up with E. P. M. D. 1:20:28.520 --> 1:20:30.639 I wand up making rough rugg in the row form. 1:20:31.120 --> 1:20:33.479 You know what het in to deal with relativity for 1:20:33.560 --> 1:20:37.080 a million dollars a lot of positive y in the room. 1:20:42.160 --> 1:20:44.200 So you said, you said you did MD what he 1:20:44.280 --> 1:20:47.759 broke up with. Yeah, I've stepped in as the producer 1:20:47.920 --> 1:20:51.439 and wind up coming in and started producing because it 1:20:51.560 --> 1:20:54.639 was the main producers. I was producing with Onyx at first, 1:20:54.840 --> 1:21:00.639 That's what I wanted to talk about doing the beat. 1:21:02.920 --> 1:21:05.479 After after they felt out with shot skills. God bless 1:21:05.560 --> 1:21:09.280 your dad, because y'all have get the flamm and all that. 1:21:10.120 --> 1:21:15.600 I wind up working on last days any vocals. I 1:21:15.680 --> 1:21:19.000 mean I I was supposed to be signing, honest, I was. 1:21:20.160 --> 1:21:22.680 I was bounding everybody for them, but at the end 1:21:22.680 --> 1:21:25.639 of the day, it was like politics with def Jam 1:21:25.760 --> 1:21:28.280 and them and God blessed depth Dad, J M J. 1:21:28.840 --> 1:21:33.360 You know, it just happened to me a couple of 1:21:33.520 --> 1:21:36.960 area arenas because I felt like I was just you know, 1:21:37.600 --> 1:21:39.880 the bones Malone. You know who he is, Bones bloone, 1:21:39.880 --> 1:21:42.439 shot the bone baloone. He said, yo At, he made 1:21:42.520 --> 1:21:44.920 a lot of these dudes great. You got on eight 1:21:44.960 --> 1:21:47.560 teams and made them great. He was like, I don't know, 1:21:47.800 --> 1:21:50.599 compare myself to a player that got traded a couple 1:21:50.640 --> 1:21:52.600 of teams. You know what I'm saying. But like in 1:21:52.640 --> 1:21:56.240 the NBA stat style of speaking, you know, I've been 1:21:56.280 --> 1:21:59.200 on a couple of great teams like the Lakers. You 1:21:59.240 --> 1:22:07.040 know what I was like, I think to be able 1:22:07.120 --> 1:22:09.680 to wrap and I got him. I got him the 1:22:09.800 --> 1:22:16.080 championships on his own. You're able to oh yeah, we 1:22:16.120 --> 1:22:18.920 can't do that. But but the able to be a 1:22:19.000 --> 1:22:23.920 producers different, you know? And that's you know what I mean? 1:22:24.000 --> 1:22:26.960 Because I could DJ too. So when you make himples 1:22:27.040 --> 1:22:30.760 for yourself, do you never think about another producer? Or yes, 1:22:31.080 --> 1:22:34.320 I work with everybody I can at the accessible moment, 1:22:34.960 --> 1:22:36.600 if I could reach out to you and I got 1:22:36.720 --> 1:22:39.679 a vibe because me, you know, we all get weird 1:22:40.320 --> 1:22:45.880 care at the table. How many of us, even though 1:22:45.920 --> 1:22:47.880 we love hip hop and we dedicated our life to 1:22:47.960 --> 1:22:52.519 hip hop, can do hip hop in the house? Can't 1:22:52.600 --> 1:22:55.320 do hip hop in the house? Well let me you 1:22:55.360 --> 1:22:59.760 mean by like a house, like, yeah, I can't. I 1:23:01.000 --> 1:23:06.200 can't dumb and let me tell you something right and 1:23:06.320 --> 1:23:09.160 still make hipps the way it's supposed to be in 1:23:09.240 --> 1:23:11.320 the house or what do we need each other? Buster? 1:23:11.520 --> 1:23:15.120 It is a good example because he is able to 1:23:16.080 --> 1:23:21.200 not let himself like I think he gotta. He don't 1:23:21.200 --> 1:23:24.479 even work with older artists. He works with younger artists 1:23:24.560 --> 1:23:27.160 so he can stay young. You gotta gotta understand the 1:23:27.280 --> 1:23:30.559 game now, like you gotta. You can't use yesterday's times 1:23:30.600 --> 1:23:33.160 to win it. You know you can't use yesterday's Memphis 1:23:33.200 --> 1:23:36.519 to winners today times excuse me, and I get him. 1:23:36.600 --> 1:23:38.439 I mean, whatever works for you works for you. But 1:23:38.560 --> 1:23:40.280 if you're in the crib and you got your pro 1:23:40.400 --> 1:23:43.880 to set up, man utilize because a lot of dudes 1:23:43.920 --> 1:23:46.920 in Africa that's doing way less than they're doing, and 1:23:47.000 --> 1:23:49.479 they're doing them how. I just look at me as 1:23:49.520 --> 1:23:52.519 a person like, look, I used to beat box and 1:23:52.800 --> 1:23:55.439 wish I had a drum machine. I'm the same dude 1:23:55.960 --> 1:24:00.400 that's still beat boxing. You want to you don't say 1:24:00.400 --> 1:24:03.479 one of your biggest records, Ghetto Girl? What's your biggest record? Oh? Man, 1:24:03.479 --> 1:24:06.840 I got a lot of big records. I mean as 1:24:06.840 --> 1:24:14.439 a wrapper, yeah. Problem. Well, Ghetto Girl was like my 1:24:14.880 --> 1:24:18.240 you know, my record that but industry made. It was 1:24:18.520 --> 1:24:22.759 not what I mean hold on period. It was something 1:24:22.880 --> 1:24:25.760 that they wanted me to be that I didn't want 1:24:26.360 --> 1:24:28.479 me to become. It was one of those moments where 1:24:28.520 --> 1:24:30.479 it was like, oh, this is the record that we're 1:24:30.479 --> 1:24:33.599 ready to put the dollars behind and I was like, well, 1:24:33.840 --> 1:24:35.880 I thought you wanted to put it behind the album 1:24:36.600 --> 1:24:40.240 to trick me. See they trick you. They made you 1:24:40.360 --> 1:24:43.240 think you a star. Then they did you didn't get 1:24:43.280 --> 1:24:47.160 your album and then they're like, oh, like, we want 1:24:47.160 --> 1:24:49.200 to push this sick. They don't want to push the album. 1:24:49.400 --> 1:24:51.280 They want to push what's gonna make money for them. 1:24:51.320 --> 1:24:53.559 I didn't know that at the time. I was very 1:24:53.720 --> 1:24:56.879 very young when I signed that deal.

They used to say, this ship 1:27:08.520 --> 1:27:12.240 wasn't gonna last. Remember that real hip hop Like I'm 1:27:12.280 --> 1:27:14.800 a like a rock and roll artist at the same time, 1:27:14.880 --> 1:27:17.560 but they say this ship wasn't gonna last.

You know, 1:28:01.240 --> 1:28:03.479 it's kind of hard when you're dealing with a bigger artist, 1:28:04.600 --> 1:28:07.519 when you're dealing with an artist that guys that you know, 1:28:08.240 --> 1:28:10.599 we're just so happened to be linked to somebody that's 1:28:10.680 --> 1:28:13.560 considered to be one of the Tope sept seas like 1:28:14.120 --> 1:28:17.880 like like, yeah, it's not like it's some side ship 1:28:18.760 --> 1:28:20.960 right now.

He doesn't owe 1:28:46.040 --> 1:28:48.960 me no explanation, no apologies, no nothing would you do 1:28:49.080 --> 1:28:52.280 with business, is honey?

I'm right 1:29:25.680 --> 1:29:30.040 my fact. I'm okay. Trust me, it's not about that. 1:29:30.439 --> 1:29:33.519 And you don't only no no, no, no, no nothing. 1:29:33.640 --> 1:29:35.320 You know what I'm saying. What you do when you win, 1:29:35.880 --> 1:29:39.160 I win because our story is just tied together. When 1:29:39.200 --> 1:29:41.439 you win, I win. You know what I'm saying. When 1:29:41.439 --> 1:29:43.120 you take ahead, I take a head. He said. Let 1:29:43.160 --> 1:29:46.439 me ask you that what was because if you call 1:29:46.560 --> 1:29:50.880 my now, what would the answer. I don't know. We're 1:29:50.920 --> 1:29:54.200 gonna put this end of this right now. Listen to 1:29:56.280 --> 1:29:59.519 in the moment because no one understands the mega thing 1:30:00.160 --> 1:30:02.759 we understood because I felt like you took a shot 1:30:03.120 --> 1:30:06.120 man right let me outside look at it. At the 1:30:06.200 --> 1:30:08.519 end of the day, I'm insider, but I'm always an 1:30:08.560 --> 1:30:11.840 outside of because that's your hood, that's y'all ship. So 1:30:12.840 --> 1:30:16.360 what was the problem? Like I never really knew. Let 1:30:16.439 --> 1:30:19.560 me tell you something. Um when it came down to 1:30:19.720 --> 1:30:23.960 being real ship, I don't walk around better and I'm 1:30:24.000 --> 1:30:26.000 not like I said, what you do is what you 1:30:26.120 --> 1:30:29.439 do right for the past due to the factory from 1:30:29.479 --> 1:30:33.160 the same hood, people knows that there's always a little 1:30:33.320 --> 1:30:36.880 something more than with probably being shown. You know what 1:30:36.880 --> 1:30:42.599 I'm saying. I don't hold no brudgets. But it wasn't 1:30:42.600 --> 1:30:45.120 the beginning. I felt that I don't even keep with 1:30:45.200 --> 1:30:47.040 a hunting. I think what I was supposed to do. 1:30:48.080 --> 1:30:50.000 I try to hold it down and try to glue 1:30:50.040 --> 1:30:51.400 ship together and do what I was supposed to do. 1:30:52.400 --> 1:30:55.200 But in the beginning, UM, I never felt that it 1:30:55.320 --> 1:30:57.160 was a hundred percent on my side. Anyway, if you 1:30:57.200 --> 1:30:59.240 look at the actual cover of the front album, I 1:30:59.400 --> 1:31:02.240 was never really show I'm like kind of blur it out. 1:31:02.320 --> 1:31:04.320 It was. I don't know. I don't think that I 1:31:04.439 --> 1:31:06.080 was good. I was supposed to be or I was 1:31:06.080 --> 1:31:10.479 supposed to actually affect people. But I mean, I'm hip hop. 1:31:10.920 --> 1:31:12.759 At the end of the day, I'm never going away 1:31:18.920 --> 1:31:20.720 ever needed me. I mean we could sit down and 1:31:20.800 --> 1:31:22.479 talk back the end of the day that I don't 1:31:22.479 --> 1:31:24.720 think the business was set up straight, and I think 1:31:24.920 --> 1:31:27.760 the hood ship could kind of get wiped away at 1:31:27.800 --> 1:31:30.559 twenty years. It's twenty years at the end. I don't 1:31:30.560 --> 1:31:33.080 walk around trying to fucking throw dirt the name and 1:31:33.360 --> 1:31:37.360 when I went, we come from the same. It will 1:31:37.439 --> 1:31:40.320 never change. It's beautiful. It's beautiful, you know what I mean. 1:31:40.400 --> 1:31:42.479 It's not like when and when Sun dropped and when 1:31:42.640 --> 1:31:44.519 they dropped the album and they did the thing. It's 1:31:44.520 --> 1:31:47.000 not like they took shots to me and then I respect, 1:31:47.080 --> 1:31:49.400 I respect. I wanted that ship and I'm really happy 1:31:49.479 --> 1:31:53.479 from Cold Mega to fucking do with eight million dollars 1:31:54.439 --> 1:31:57.080 because if we didn't go that way ever heard of me? 1:31:57.960 --> 1:32:00.840 Meant it for a second, it didn't go and give 1:32:00.880 --> 1:32:02.640 me the opportunity of a lifetime to do what I do. 1:32:04.320 --> 1:32:08.599 We brothers, we go through. Do I make senver tying? 1:32:09.240 --> 1:32:14.240 You got talking girl up to the day, I don't. 1:32:14.240 --> 1:32:17.439 I don't work around. I'm supporting it. If you win, 1:32:17.520 --> 1:32:20.639 I win. Come on, brother, let's go. Because we always 1:32:20.680 --> 1:32:23.120 talked about toys. We always talked about money that could 1:32:23.120 --> 1:32:25.160 have been made. You could have shut of water. And 1:32:25.320 --> 1:32:26.760 I think at the end of the day, it's not 1:32:26.800 --> 1:32:28.760 too many pieces that's missing, you know what I mean. 1:32:28.880 --> 1:32:32.240 I'm here, I'm telling you. People are a lot of 1:32:32.280 --> 1:32:34.880 people gonna watch this, you know what I mean. A 1:32:34.960 --> 1:32:37.000 lot of people gonna watch this, you know I mean. 1:32:37.320 --> 1:32:40.080 And so whatever whatever, if the cold get made, if 1:32:40.120 --> 1:32:43.200 it don't get made, I'm good. I'm still gonna make music. 1:32:43.320 --> 1:32:45.400 Check me out, you know what I mean. Twenty years 1:32:45.439 --> 1:32:47.719 and a lot of ship. Ain't no love of loss, 1:32:47.840 --> 1:32:49.880 you know what I mean. That's importantly, that's the most 1:32:49.920 --> 1:32:52.680 important thing about because you don't saying what we trying 1:32:52.720 --> 1:32:55.800 to say. Because even me and not even when he 1:32:55.880 --> 1:32:59.680 sat here, you know, we just didn't avoid our discrepancy, 1:32:59.840 --> 1:33:01.200 like you know what I'm saying. This is what I'm saying. 1:33:01.240 --> 1:33:03.600 So I was just trying to say, what was it? Like, 1:33:03.960 --> 1:33:10.519 you don't say, you don't even that it was amazing ship. 1:33:10.560 --> 1:33:12.439 You could put your finger on it and say, this 1:33:12.520 --> 1:33:16.280 is what happened. Because I love niggas like brothers. You 1:33:16.320 --> 1:33:18.200 know what I'm saying. We were brothers were born, and 1:33:18.640 --> 1:33:20.240 that's what's said. You know what I mean. I lost 1:33:20.320 --> 1:33:24.240 my mom's you know what I mean. You know what 1:33:24.280 --> 1:33:26.519 I mean.

It happened. These are my dudes. 1:33:37.520 --> 1:33:40.479 I'm grateful for the position that I was put in. 1:33:41.840 --> 1:33:46.000 This gave me the alley you for life, for life. 1:33:50.439 --> 1:33:53.519 But I'm gonna they don't have to necessarily be a 1:33:53.680 --> 1:33:56.720 sad story.

I just wanted to 1:39:49.439 --> 1:39:52.160 be everybody what I'm saying, thinking about answering this because 1:39:53.360 --> 1:39:56.280 tell the truth. This is like you know I first 1:39:56.320 --> 1:40:01.840 of all, what's that song? Don't protect nobody start to 1:40:01.880 --> 1:40:04.519 no one about the numbers that was spent. I was 1:40:04.600 --> 1:40:06.960 kind of tight. The budget, Yeah, the budget right, the 1:40:07.040 --> 1:40:10.559 budget part changes one thing, which is your records. Let's 1:40:10.560 --> 1:40:14.960 just everybody understand what's going on. What it's having a 1:40:15.040 --> 1:40:18.160 re forecast. That's the word refecast. I love the forecast 1:40:18.200 --> 1:40:21.240 with the refecast that made you run outcast was the 1:40:21.320 --> 1:40:25.280 podcast that made you run out? And we boecasts that 1:40:25.680 --> 1:40:29.560 have to read budget what you're doing. That's that's the 1:40:29.640 --> 1:40:33.360 second mortgas. That's the second mortgat. The budget that didn't 1:40:33.360 --> 1:40:41.760 want you to tell this reason you think about the 1:40:41.800 --> 1:40:45.960 budget days will spend re forecasting, we recreate it, and 1:40:46.520 --> 1:40:49.360 we'll make a whole other budget for the budget for 1:40:49.479 --> 1:40:52.960 the new vision. Every forecasting a couple of times that 1:40:53.000 --> 1:40:55.439 might always went green basically ran out, and you always 1:40:55.479 --> 1:40:59.920 want green. Green's son. I sat there and watched the funk, 1:41:00.040 --> 1:41:02.000 and I got a piece of paper that told me 1:41:02.120 --> 1:41:06.960 that I owed one point something million times only showed 1:41:07.000 --> 1:41:10.920 me that you're going too fast. Let's all right, what 1:41:11.040 --> 1:41:15.840 happened to say again? When I finished re forecast and 1:41:16.000 --> 1:41:19.280 had a kid new money, that means that that means 1:41:19.520 --> 1:41:22.640 all the days that we sat all the days that 1:41:22.720 --> 1:41:26.519 we sat there, and all let's say, all the days 1:41:26.520 --> 1:41:30.960 that we sat there and smoking drunk and probably rented 1:41:31.080 --> 1:41:35.519 studio equipment that didn't finish the record, and we had 1:41:35.600 --> 1:41:39.479 food budgets, and we had entourages, and we had the 1:41:39.560 --> 1:41:45.519 whole ship. Showed me, you have this bill that says 1:41:45.720 --> 1:41:50.960 you owe one point something million dollars all commerces in 1:41:51.080 --> 1:41:58.120 the right places, and you're saying to yourself, how because 1:41:58.160 --> 1:42:01.000 it's mad days. I'm going home. I'm like pitt Off, 1:42:02.040 --> 1:42:05.599 I got a quite new how you knew? We knew 1:42:06.160 --> 1:42:10.240 because people weren't raping the budget. I'm being honest. This 1:42:10.320 --> 1:42:15.040 is what I gotta pick up. Tragedy could trash trash, 1:42:15.280 --> 1:42:21.400 tragedy could dicty traded us pause sounded crazy, but I 1:42:21.439 --> 1:42:27.040 didn't know. You know, don't play what studio times, don't 1:42:27.080 --> 1:42:29.640 play around with it. So we was like what. So 1:42:29.840 --> 1:42:33.160 we would go in the crib we were sitting there 1:42:33.600 --> 1:42:37.439 and be like, yo, all right, this is the b alright, cool, yeah, 1:42:37.439 --> 1:42:39.559 I think it's right to that being poem would sit 1:42:39.640 --> 1:42:41.960 there right to the whole ship. So by the time 1:42:42.040 --> 1:42:43.960 we came to the student, we would knock it out. 1:42:44.400 --> 1:42:47.920 And I knew this because of that studio budget, you're 1:42:47.920 --> 1:42:51.120 not going into it. This is what I said, one thing, 1:42:51.240 --> 1:42:59.479 one way, then they don't finish. I got you, I 1:42:59.520 --> 1:43:02.800 got problems. But so I was like what. And at 1:43:02.880 --> 1:43:05.040 first I used to be like why we gotta practice 1:43:05.080 --> 1:43:08.400 and rehearse because that's what it was the mentality back then. 1:43:08.560 --> 1:43:11.599 And let me tell you something, I respect that ship. 1:43:11.800 --> 1:43:14.800 I've never been a has studio, but I recorded seven 1:43:14.880 --> 1:43:17.840 records because I don't know how to play with studios top, 1:43:17.880 --> 1:43:19.400 but I'm sorry, which was about to say, can I 1:43:20.160 --> 1:43:21.960 can I get one question? Let me get him and 1:43:22.040 --> 1:43:23.720 then we come right back to you. I promise you. 1:43:23.840 --> 1:43:27.280 But we're rocking you. You got your motherfucker's you wrote 1:43:27.320 --> 1:43:31.600 to you? Baby, were watching you looking good. I recorded 1:43:31.680 --> 1:43:34.720 this album that I did for track matters for all 1:43:34.880 --> 1:43:41.840 seasons without having any brahms written. That means this whole 1:43:42.000 --> 1:43:45.560 album was recorded on the spot. As we go in 1:43:45.640 --> 1:43:48.719 the studio and smoke some weed. We're recording the classic 1:43:48.840 --> 1:43:56.479 album without any without you, no week one point. I'll 1:43:56.520 --> 1:43:57.800 tell you. If you I'll tell you what your bud 1:43:57.880 --> 1:44:03.880 it was seven hundred thousands. First of alerted you were 1:44:03.880 --> 1:44:06.840 spending plenty of nights out. We spend plenty of nights 1:44:07.360 --> 1:44:13.320 having soldio back smash. We haven't we have a right track. 1:44:14.040 --> 1:44:18.360 We're having yips, we're having fucking monks when we have 1:44:18.479 --> 1:44:22.120 to what we're spending over money. We haven't spending all 1:44:22.200 --> 1:44:26.960 kind of money. So um, we were tragedy. He told 1:44:27.120 --> 1:44:31.320 not to spend up. What I'm saying is thank the tragedy, 1:44:34.680 --> 1:44:43.080 Thank you tragedy, thank you. The labels weren't fleeting your costs. 1:44:43.160 --> 1:44:47.480 On top of that, it's a stipulation. It's a stipulation 1:44:47.600 --> 1:44:50.639 in my contract to say that I'm signed to I'm 1:44:50.680 --> 1:44:53.559 signed to producers, So it's a stipulation of my contract 1:44:53.600 --> 1:44:55.240 is saying that I have to have a certain amount 1:44:55.280 --> 1:44:59.240 of beats from the same producers that that signed me, 1:44:59.400 --> 1:45:01.560 so I get the money, and having to pass the 1:45:01.640 --> 1:45:05.000 money off to the same people that gave me the money. 1:45:05.120 --> 1:45:15.120 Come the love, I'm gonna take care God. I got 1:45:15.200 --> 1:45:17.840 the money, and it's a stipulation that I have to 1:45:17.920 --> 1:45:19.920 pass some of his money back to the same people 1:45:20.040 --> 1:45:24.439 that I got it from after they charged any charging 1:45:25.760 --> 1:45:32.680 back charging a thousand of beat. The same people that 1:45:32.800 --> 1:45:36.880 work with Will Smith and Mariah Carry and nays and 1:45:37.320 --> 1:45:39.840 did you write Kobe Bryant smiles and when it was 1:45:39.880 --> 1:45:44.240 doing Kobe, they're doing Kobe Bryant.

It's all 1:46:17.600 --> 1:46:20.280 of stories. So my drink Champs could go five hours, 1:46:20.360 --> 1:46:25.120 but we didn't here for that. In between both I 1:46:25.200 --> 1:46:29.320 could drink I support. I don't drink out of I 1:46:29.360 --> 1:46:38.479 don't want to do something like that support because I 1:46:38.600 --> 1:46:40.599 can't take take you get the things that I can't 1:46:40.640 --> 1:46:46.519 do us. But I'm going, I'm saying, but you know, no, no, 1:46:47.920 --> 1:46:52.639 I think yeah, I don't see an album five songs 1:46:52.760 --> 1:47:03.160 right now? Has it his studios? Has gonn right now. 1:47:03.360 --> 1:47:06.559 I came to Miami yesterday and since I've been in Miami, 1:47:06.840 --> 1:47:10.040 I probably shot like five videos. That's the way to 1:47:10.080 --> 1:47:13.000 see that should have been happening. The next day I 1:47:13.080 --> 1:47:15.439 shot five is you don't do that number? Let me ask, 1:47:15.560 --> 1:47:23.680 Let me ask you. I got to ask you. Get 1:47:23.720 --> 1:47:25.800 it done. I got straight up to ask you. As 1:47:25.840 --> 1:47:30.759 a Carol O. The rumor was there could be anybody lyrically, 1:47:32.080 --> 1:47:36.120 anybody that nys to get on the record wood Speed 1:47:36.200 --> 1:47:43.639 the lyrically still, but I gotta ask any time before, 1:47:43.720 --> 1:47:46.560 like nature was lazy a lot of times. Stuff for 1:47:46.680 --> 1:47:48.559 this the name, that's the that's the that's the theory 1:47:48.600 --> 1:47:51.200 about me because like I said, due to the fact 1:47:51.320 --> 1:47:55.479 that I wasn't coming to the studio where pre prepared 1:47:55.720 --> 1:47:58.040 songs and rhymes, it might take me a minute to 1:47:58.080 --> 1:48:01.280 write these rhymes in the studio. So this so because 1:48:01.520 --> 1:48:03.679 because it might took a minute to write this record, 1:48:03.880 --> 1:48:07.200 they might say nature's lazy. It's not that the nature's lazy, 1:48:07.280 --> 1:48:12.280 it's just the nature's home situation. It's not really good 1:48:12.479 --> 1:48:16.760 as far as blocking everything out and and diving into 1:48:16.840 --> 1:48:19.920 this music. You know, it's not that's not that's not 1:48:20.040 --> 1:48:22.320 what it is. So but when it comes down to 1:48:22.400 --> 1:48:25.479 the music, you put me in the room with the best, 1:48:25.640 --> 1:48:30.040 I become the best. Become the best.

Because I 1:48:35.000 --> 1:48:37.200 felt that I did it for so long by asking 1:48:37.240 --> 1:48:39.360 the question, do you have a freestyle? If you feel 1:48:39.439 --> 1:48:42.040 like your brother have seen, can you freestyle? No? You 1:48:42.120 --> 1:48:45.439 know what it was for me.
