<v Speaker 1>Of miatas Man. I see, man, you Internet the Internet

0:00:25.800 --> 0:00:28.920

0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:30.680
<v Speaker 1>that ship crazy down there with the Internet.

0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:35.040
<v Speaker 2>I didn't have the Internet problems with like the Internet

0:00:35.240 --> 0:00:36.960
<v Speaker 2>at a large scale. I just had an issue with

0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:40.760
<v Speaker 2>AT and T and then issue with Exfinity.

0:00:41.440 --> 0:00:44.160
<v Speaker 1>I say, Florida is getting third world country right now.

0:00:48.120 --> 0:00:53.120
<v Speaker 2>My liberal told me, My liberal homie told me Florida

0:00:53.680 --> 0:00:56.800
<v Speaker 2>this is going third world right now. It's so dude,

0:00:56.920 --> 0:00:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Like my boy Kai from Dorsey was out here this weekend.

0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:02.520
<v Speaker 2>Shout outs to Kai, and thanks for not telling me.

0:01:02.600 --> 0:01:04.440
<v Speaker 2>But we had a good time. When when I caught

0:01:04.480 --> 0:01:06.640
<v Speaker 2>him on his Instagram story on South Beach, you had

0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:08.559
<v Speaker 2>to call him and tell him, hey, what the help.

0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:11.560
<v Speaker 2>But we were going around to see He's like, man,

0:01:11.600 --> 0:01:13.920
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe how cleaning this, how big, and how

0:01:14.040 --> 0:01:15.960
<v Speaker 2>nice it got so much cool he was. He was

0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:16.600
<v Speaker 2>amazed by.

0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:22.479
<v Speaker 1>Florida is nice. I mean in Miami, the crazy thing

0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:27.160
<v Speaker 1>about Miami and it fucked me up, right because this

0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:30.559
<v Speaker 1>is the thing about hip hop, right, and hip hop

0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 1>is street urban culture, even the arts express you know,

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:37.040
<v Speaker 1>the music part of it, right is when you're listening

0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:39.560
<v Speaker 1>to people talk about places and they don't tell you

0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:45.520
<v Speaker 1>key ingredients that make these places really unique. Right, Like

0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:47.880
<v Speaker 1>when you go to Atlanta and like you hear all

0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:50.720
<v Speaker 1>these great stories about blah blah blah, this, that and

0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:53.600
<v Speaker 1>the third, but then you know this, like the black

0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:58.040
<v Speaker 1>homosexual population is crazy, like almost like so it takes

0:01:58.040 --> 0:02:00.760
<v Speaker 1>you off goard because no rapper put that in their

0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:04.200
<v Speaker 1>song like it was happening. And I don't care how

0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:07.520
<v Speaker 1>many outcast albums I listen to, you know how many

0:02:07.840 --> 0:02:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Tip albums I listen to, No matter how many j

0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:15.240
<v Speaker 1>Z's Jermaine Dupriez, none of those albums prepared me for

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:18.760
<v Speaker 1>that culture. You know, that culture class that getting off

0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:21.560
<v Speaker 1>the plane and walking through that airport in Atlanta hit

0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:24.440
<v Speaker 1>me with. Well, the same thing is for Miami. Like

0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:27.600
<v Speaker 1>when you leave off Collins, you know, you leave off

0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:30.920
<v Speaker 1>the beach and you're driving through fucking Miami and it's

0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:34.440
<v Speaker 1>like the ghetto. Soon as you leave the beach, it's

0:02:34.520 --> 0:02:37.960
<v Speaker 1>like it's right there, and nobody prepares you because all

0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:40.280
<v Speaker 1>you hear is about the girls in Miami and this,

0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:42.359
<v Speaker 1>that and the third. As soon as you leave Collins,

0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:44.280
<v Speaker 1>your ass will get robbed.

0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:48.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah it's it's it's pushed back a bit now, but yo,

0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:53.600
<v Speaker 2>it's there's no medium. There's like, there's no medium.

0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:57.600
<v Speaker 1>It's the phase. Is the fade? Go from hair to

0:02:57.760 --> 0:02:59.320
<v Speaker 1>board instantly?

0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:02.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh yes, yes, it's it's it's not a fade, it's

0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:03.680
<v Speaker 2>more like a burned scar.

0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:09.519
<v Speaker 1>It's just like, yeah, yes, that's how I feel about it.

0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:12.240
<v Speaker 1>You go right from Collins to trouble.

0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:15.840
<v Speaker 2>That's what's so interesting. Now, we were out in this

0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:18.240
<v Speaker 2>area called Winwood and Winwood if you were here an

0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:22.120
<v Speaker 2>old trick Daddy's songs you know from Book of Thugs,

0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:24.040
<v Speaker 2>and say that he's talking about all these neighborhoods. He's

0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:27.320
<v Speaker 2>talking about Winwood when Wood is the arts, it's the

0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:32.400
<v Speaker 2>party district. Now it's like hipstery and nightclubs and all

0:03:32.400 --> 0:03:36.880
<v Speaker 2>that shit. It is behind over Town and on the

0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:39.280
<v Speaker 2>other side of Little Haiti. It's just like you leave

0:03:39.360 --> 0:03:42.600
<v Speaker 2>the designated parking area, you're into projects. You're hearing the

0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:46.040
<v Speaker 2>old school Miami projects right outside the club. I cannot

0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 2>believe that those guys, God bless them. The police must

0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:50.800
<v Speaker 2>have gone door to door and said, don't you fuck

0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:53.080
<v Speaker 2>with those kids over there, because if I lived over there,

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:57.680
<v Speaker 2>it would be like turning Willowbrook into the Arts District

0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:01.839
<v Speaker 2>and expecting the guys from fucking PJS not to rob

0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:04.560
<v Speaker 2>every jackass coming out of the nightclub drunk every fucking

0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:08.600
<v Speaker 2>Saturday atm Machine. I don't know how they convinced him

0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:09.560
<v Speaker 2>not to walk over there.

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 1>Hey, that's how the Hit Factory is. When I would

0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:16.880
<v Speaker 1>be with Stunner, shout out to Stunner, Birdman, tune, little Wayne,

0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, the whole team, cast money. But like you

0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:21.880
<v Speaker 1>walk out of the Hit Factories, the Projects is across

0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:29.000
<v Speaker 1>the street. No, that's in Miami, so you I don't

0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:31.240
<v Speaker 1>think you've been to the Hit Factory studios yet, but

0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:33.880
<v Speaker 1>Hit Factory where the studios at right across the street

0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:38.520
<v Speaker 1>is the Projects. That's why they got that big ass

0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:44.960
<v Speaker 1>gate up around Hit Factory like that. So, but something

0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:48.520
<v Speaker 1>was on my mind. First off, no seilings, gl in

0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:52.440
<v Speaker 1>the spot, doing what I do. My boy Pete back online,

0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:58.880
<v Speaker 1>back blazing, and my leg is feeling strong. Still not perfect,

0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:02.359
<v Speaker 1>but it's feeling wrong and we're finna get back to

0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:07.720
<v Speaker 1>really showering. You know, everybody that enjoys no ceilings with

0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:11.480
<v Speaker 1>a ton of episodes, fuck if they paying form, fuck

0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:14.040
<v Speaker 1>what they make. This is just what we do. So

0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.039
<v Speaker 1>we about to ramp it up like we did last

0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:16.920
<v Speaker 1>year around this time.

0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:19.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we won't stop.

0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:23.360
<v Speaker 1>That's because motherfuckers can't fuck with us. Yeah, motherfuckers can't

0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 1>fuck with us. And it needs to be understood. But

0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:32.880
<v Speaker 1>I was reading something and it's weird because I never

0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:42.159
<v Speaker 1>talked him to the person who posted this. And this

0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:44.600
<v Speaker 1>person that posted this is a legend in the game.

0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:49.240
<v Speaker 1>He's a legend in the game responsible for part of

0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:52.839
<v Speaker 1>DJ Quick's career. But he says on this post, it says, hey,

0:05:52.839 --> 0:05:56.360
<v Speaker 1>gang bankers and street hustlers over forty five years Oh now,

0:05:56.360 --> 0:05:58.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm not over forty five years old. I'm not forty

0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:02.760
<v Speaker 1>five yet. Yeah, it's gonna be a while. I don't

0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:06.520
<v Speaker 1>think you got the memo. Nobody youthful cares about your

0:06:06.600 --> 0:06:09.880
<v Speaker 1>snitching or he says, nobody youthful cares about your no

0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:13.360
<v Speaker 1>snitching code anymore, and very few folks care about what

0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:15.320
<v Speaker 1>you did in the streets in the eighties, nineties or

0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:18.920
<v Speaker 1>early two thousands, knock it off and retire. We've heard

0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:25.280
<v Speaker 1>all your stories. Now. I read that and it was

0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:35.560
<v Speaker 1>super in scendiary sure to me, right, because there's like

0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:41.520
<v Speaker 1>this really weird it's either ignorant or disingenuous message going

0:06:41.560 --> 0:06:49.960
<v Speaker 1>around in mainstream America that the streets are not the streets, right,

0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:51.960
<v Speaker 1>And I get.

0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:54.920
<v Speaker 2>Did you elaborate a little bit on that? So give

0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:56.240
<v Speaker 2>me the streets on other streets.

0:06:57.400 --> 0:07:00.400
<v Speaker 1>You're hearing all of these stories right where they're like, oh,

0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:02.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, the streets are a myth. Troy av that's

0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:05.480
<v Speaker 1>his thing. You know, he's said, oh, you know, things

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:08.960
<v Speaker 1>happen in the streets that it's not true. The rules,

0:07:09.000 --> 0:07:13.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, the gang life is it's not real. And

0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:17.320
<v Speaker 1>it's like or like this particularly thing, right, nobody youthful

0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:21.680
<v Speaker 1>cares about your no snitching code, you know what I mean?

0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:24.440
<v Speaker 2>Or I wouldn't argue with anything that guy said. You could,

0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:27.240
<v Speaker 2>you might not. I think it's the greatest.

0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's just untrue. Well it's the problem with it

0:07:31.040 --> 0:07:35.280
<v Speaker 1>is it's untrue, right, because so what the average person

0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:39.080
<v Speaker 1>that's consuming content is getting, right is story. So they're

0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:41.560
<v Speaker 1>hearing the stories of six ' nine. They're hearing the

0:07:41.600 --> 0:07:46.160
<v Speaker 1>stories of this rapper, They're hearing stories from YouTubers. The

0:07:46.280 --> 0:07:51.080
<v Speaker 1>streets are still the streets. If you tell on somebody

0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:54.320
<v Speaker 1>outside of you should be totally ashamed. And I'm talking

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:57.800
<v Speaker 1>about really telling, not you know, not the bullshit kind

0:07:57.800 --> 0:08:00.800
<v Speaker 1>of telling. I mean, like you really are informing the

0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:05.360
<v Speaker 1>police on someone else's crime to get less time, you

0:08:05.400 --> 0:08:09.320
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying, to get less time in exchange

0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:12.600
<v Speaker 1>for whatever crime you committed. You know, the lack of accountability.

0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:18.440
<v Speaker 1>That's a real standard thing in all criminal worlds. Yeah,

0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:21.440
<v Speaker 1>so outside of you should be ashamed for being like

0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:23.720
<v Speaker 1>a whole ass nigga not wanting to just personally be

0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:28.320
<v Speaker 1>accountable for your own actions. Right, you may get killed

0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:32.760
<v Speaker 1>most likely, Like a lot of these people were talking about,

0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:35.960
<v Speaker 1>don't fragnize with the people, you know what I mean

0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:39.679
<v Speaker 1>that still believe in these things. A lot of these

0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:42.640
<v Speaker 1>people that people are seeing on YouTube are not in

0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:46.240
<v Speaker 1>the streets anymore. And as a professional rapper, I don't

0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:48.240
<v Speaker 1>hang out on the seven like I used to. No

0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:52.560
<v Speaker 1>matter if I still abide the same rules or the

0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:56.000
<v Speaker 1>same caught the same thoughts, you know what I mean,

0:08:56.040 --> 0:09:00.520
<v Speaker 1>the same code or ethics of conduct. I You'll live

0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:03.000
<v Speaker 1>by them even if I'm not hanging out. But it's

0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:05.960
<v Speaker 1>another thing to believe and to lead people into saying

0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:09.000
<v Speaker 1>that they don't believe that there are fucking twenty some

0:09:09.240 --> 0:09:11.240
<v Speaker 1>year old kids that are running around the streets that

0:09:11.360 --> 0:09:15.080
<v Speaker 1>believe that shit wholeheartedly and will blow your motherfucking head

0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:15.720
<v Speaker 1>off behind it.

0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:22.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, one hundred percent. I mean I kind of look

0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:26.080
<v Speaker 2>at you can see it, you know, like in larger,

0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:33.880
<v Speaker 2>like a broader spectrum like all these there's like a

0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:39.600
<v Speaker 2>whole trend of like YouTube pseudo celebrity former Mafia guys

0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:42.440
<v Speaker 2>that snitched out of time or whatever, and they you know,

0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:46.160
<v Speaker 2>kind of surfaced after twenty years of being you know,

0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:49.080
<v Speaker 2>off the grid or whatever the hell, and they're like, no,

0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:52.720
<v Speaker 2>now I'm gonna be you know, do a YouTube thing

0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:54.400
<v Speaker 2>and talk about Yeah, I've been talking about all my

0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:57.079
<v Speaker 2>old Mafia stories after I snitched my way out of

0:09:57.080 --> 0:10:00.120
<v Speaker 2>getting seventeen life sentences and I got ten years this

0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:03.320
<v Speaker 2>snitch and ass sure, yeah him, that other guy Francis.

0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:06.760
<v Speaker 2>There's you know, it's a Chicago guy that did this.

0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:08.760
<v Speaker 2>There's a lot of there's no shortage of it. I mean,

0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:12.760
<v Speaker 2>you can any mob town with a family. There's got

0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:17.720
<v Speaker 2>a YouTube guy. Now, sure, you know, so they're they're

0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:20.000
<v Speaker 2>walking around. I wouldn't want to do that if I

0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:22.840
<v Speaker 2>was active in thirty five and in that lifestyle, I

0:10:22.840 --> 0:10:25.000
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't want to press that button.

0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:28.760
<v Speaker 1>But well, this is the thing, right, those people are

0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:32.640
<v Speaker 1>not around people of the life. And another thing, those

0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:36.320
<v Speaker 1>people are also not in position or a lot of

0:10:36.320 --> 0:10:39.760
<v Speaker 1>people don't know where these people are, Like, they're not

0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:41.200
<v Speaker 1>they don't live in Boston.

0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:45.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but these guys got like speaking engagements on the internet.

0:10:45.600 --> 0:10:49.280
<v Speaker 1>They really don't have speaking engagements. They're not marketing, they're

0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:54.520
<v Speaker 1>speaking engagements like you would think. Again, sometimes it looks

0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:58.240
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more transparent than it is because rust

0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:01.439
<v Speaker 1>is sure there's somebody still looking to blow Sammy the

0:11:01.520 --> 0:11:06.760
<v Speaker 1>Bull's head off. They'll never forget huh.

0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I don't doubt that at all. I mean,

0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:12.600
<v Speaker 2>there's they're old now. I mean that's and I think

0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 2>where I was going with it was when snitches represented

0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:22.960
<v Speaker 2>one percent of the outfit. It was one thing. When

0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:27.000
<v Speaker 2>everything gets federalized and penalties go from oh yeah, you

0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:28.719
<v Speaker 2>do whatever, you're gonna get two years to now you

0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:30.760
<v Speaker 2>do anything, you're gonna get thirty, you're gonna get one

0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:35.280
<v Speaker 2>hundred of your thousand years. The percentage of snitching has

0:11:35.400 --> 0:11:39.160
<v Speaker 2>grown an awful lot, you know, is there's an impact

0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:40.680
<v Speaker 2>on that, on the fact that.

0:11:41.559 --> 0:11:48.240
<v Speaker 1>I still think. I still think though, in any any

0:11:49.240 --> 0:11:52.760
<v Speaker 1>criminal outfit, you know, because that could be the police,

0:11:52.760 --> 0:11:54.160
<v Speaker 1>that could be a group of the police, all the

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:57.360
<v Speaker 1>way down to a street game, there's still gonna be

0:11:57.480 --> 0:12:01.960
<v Speaker 1>very few snitches. And I think that's the confusion where

0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:06.240
<v Speaker 1>it's frustrating to watch people mislead other people like this

0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:09.640
<v Speaker 1>is the common conduct. And I saw another thing where

0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:12.880
<v Speaker 1>somebody was telling them people like and it was weird

0:12:12.920 --> 0:12:14.679
<v Speaker 1>because I was talking to one of my own boys,

0:12:14.800 --> 0:12:17.480
<v Speaker 1>brother Karon, really smart brothers shout out the brother Karon

0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:21.120
<v Speaker 1>got a doctorate, super smart, and we were talking about,

0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:23.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, he was talking about gang life. He was like,

0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:26.080
<v Speaker 1>glass as you know, man, it needs to be some

0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:28.960
<v Speaker 1>kind of rules. And I'm like, he's like, you know,

0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:31.200
<v Speaker 1>people don't oh bide by the rules. And I'm like, well,

0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:35.440
<v Speaker 1>there are really never been rules in the gang, right,

0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:39.400
<v Speaker 1>Like That's why I kind of really funny about a DP,

0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:44.079
<v Speaker 1>because there are no written rules when you first jump

0:12:44.120 --> 0:12:46.000
<v Speaker 1>off the porch and decide that you're going to be

0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:48.520
<v Speaker 1>a part of the criminal organization that you call a gang.

0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:52.080
<v Speaker 1>You don't sign a contract of conduct. You don't say

0:12:52.120 --> 0:12:55.320
<v Speaker 1>here's the rules. No different than being in America, right,

0:12:55.400 --> 0:13:00.360
<v Speaker 1>and the laws. You're not taught the laws. I taught

0:13:00.360 --> 0:13:03.360
<v Speaker 1>the laws growing up, like you would think they would

0:13:03.360 --> 0:13:05.760
<v Speaker 1>teach that in school. Here are the laws. If you

0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:10.240
<v Speaker 1>break any of these laws, you're going to jail. It's

0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:14.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of like these ideas, right that are like unspoken,

0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:19.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, known things. I was explaining to somebody on Instagram,

0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:22.400
<v Speaker 1>like even like with a DP, like, right, I was

0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:24.439
<v Speaker 1>looking at somebody get DP by like seven people, and

0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:27.199
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, that's not the DP. They they put you off.

0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:29.760
<v Speaker 1>If they called that a discipline, you tripping. You need

0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:31.880
<v Speaker 1>to be shooting at them and never deal with them again.

0:13:32.600 --> 0:13:34.839
<v Speaker 1>And I was on Instagram lib and me and my

0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:37.760
<v Speaker 1>homeboy was talking about it, and we were talking about

0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:41.199
<v Speaker 1>ideas that can get you dp'ed in the gang. Right,

0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:46.000
<v Speaker 1>And it's like this DP stands for discipline for people

0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:50.720
<v Speaker 1>who didn't know, it's a disciplinary procedure when you you know,

0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:55.559
<v Speaker 1>and honestly, this is my point, when you actually when

0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:58.960
<v Speaker 1>you actually disappoint homies.

0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:03.160
<v Speaker 2>Do you remember when we did that live show for

0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:10.720
<v Speaker 2>I think it was there was all kinds of people

0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:12.439
<v Speaker 2>that I forgot who we were talking to. It was

0:14:12.480 --> 0:14:14.960
<v Speaker 2>the one we did outside It was it was it

0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:20.280
<v Speaker 2>wass chronicles. Yeah, you were talking about a story of

0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:23.800
<v Speaker 2>some guy was it was locked up. It was just

0:14:23.920 --> 0:14:25.360
<v Speaker 2>some fun and everybody.

0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:29.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, And it's funny because I remember, oh Yea

0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:32.840
<v Speaker 1>had the conversation with Mab James about like me and

0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:35.960
<v Speaker 1>James disagree on one particular thing about what a gangster

0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:38.640
<v Speaker 1>or a gang banger is like, and a lot of

0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:41.480
<v Speaker 1>g homies really feel like the only person that's gangsters

0:14:42.120 --> 0:14:45.160
<v Speaker 1>is the infantry. And I'm like, that's pretty much the

0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:48.080
<v Speaker 1>firstest thing from the truth on all scales. And when

0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:51.000
<v Speaker 1>you think like that, you know what I mean, like

0:14:51.600 --> 0:14:53.720
<v Speaker 1>you kind of missed the big picture and you're usually

0:14:53.760 --> 0:14:56.080
<v Speaker 1>going to become a relic or you're gonna be somebody

0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:59.600
<v Speaker 1>that's gonna be totally disappointed, if that makes sense. If

0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:02.480
<v Speaker 1>you think think only the infantry is a real gang

0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:05.920
<v Speaker 1>member or a real gangster, you're going to leave gang

0:15:06.040 --> 0:15:10.520
<v Speaker 1>bang very disappointed or you're gonna like have a hard

0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:12.760
<v Speaker 1>time it's not gonna work out for you because you

0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:16.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna realize it's a lot of respect for certain people

0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:21.880
<v Speaker 1>that necessarily are not part of the infantry. Why its

0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:25.320
<v Speaker 1>respect is different. Like at the end of the day,

0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:29.160
<v Speaker 1>street urban culture is rooted in masculinity. You know it

0:15:29.240 --> 0:15:32.160
<v Speaker 1>sounds crazy, right, Pete, but you can relate because you

0:15:32.680 --> 0:15:34.280
<v Speaker 1>kind of studied the mafia a little bit, you know

0:15:34.280 --> 0:15:36.240
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. You know, it's about being a man.

0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:41.520
<v Speaker 1>All gangsism on every street level, on every street urban level,

0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:44.840
<v Speaker 1>is about being a man. Right. That's why snitching is

0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:47.360
<v Speaker 1>fround the plant we've talked about. This is because you're

0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:50.000
<v Speaker 1>going out like a girl, like real snitching where you

0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:52.080
<v Speaker 1>tell the police because they gonna give you ten years,

0:15:52.120 --> 0:15:54.240
<v Speaker 1>and you like, well not to do these ten years.

0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:57.360
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what, Billy, did you know? I mean,

0:15:57.600 --> 0:16:00.520
<v Speaker 1>that's some girl shit. Being unaccountable is considered a woman.

0:16:00.560 --> 0:16:02.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, we created that space, like we always say

0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:06.400
<v Speaker 1>women to be unaccountable. So that's why it's frowned upon.

0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:11.040
<v Speaker 1>It's frowned upon because it's unmasculine to not be accountable,

0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:16.320
<v Speaker 1>right it ghead.

0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:20.560
<v Speaker 2>I will say, it's you know, the dynamic always kind

0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:28.440
<v Speaker 2>of centers around reinforcing a hierarchy of masculinity and respect,

0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:29.840
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean. So if you're up here,

0:16:29.920 --> 0:16:32.640
<v Speaker 2>you think you're up here, and you do something down here,

0:16:32.840 --> 0:16:34.960
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna physically get put down here. It's like, oh,

0:16:35.000 --> 0:16:36.520
<v Speaker 2>you want to be at the bottom, We're all physically

0:16:36.600 --> 0:16:39.960
<v Speaker 2>put you at the bottom. You have something stupid in incarceration,

0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:43.560
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna physically correct you, you know, saying anywhere else,

0:16:43.600 --> 0:16:47.000
<v Speaker 2>because that's that's where the respect really, I think, kind

0:16:47.000 --> 0:16:49.480
<v Speaker 2>of rests upon. Is the physical more so than like,

0:16:49.520 --> 0:16:51.320
<v Speaker 2>oh we're going to take you the civil court over this.

0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Not sure? Yeah, yeah, yeah exactly. And it's it's a

0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:58.280
<v Speaker 1>bit primitive, it's very primitive.

0:16:57.840 --> 0:16:59.600
<v Speaker 2>But it's the most efficient.

0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:03.160
<v Speaker 1>It's efficient, and it's the way it's conducted at the

0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:07.240
<v Speaker 1>lowest levels. Excuse me, lowest that's the wrong word. Lowest levels,

0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:10.760
<v Speaker 1>the lowest financial places in life and the wealthiest places

0:17:10.800 --> 0:17:14.199
<v Speaker 1>in life. Everybody has the same mind state between those

0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:21.640
<v Speaker 1>the bottom and the top economically. So the point I

0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:25.000
<v Speaker 1>was making was it's so many people that are YouTubers,

0:17:25.320 --> 0:17:29.800
<v Speaker 1>that are content creators, and that are even rappers that

0:17:29.880 --> 0:17:34.160
<v Speaker 1>are masking what's really going on. You know what I mean,

0:17:34.240 --> 0:17:37.040
<v Speaker 1>because they're not a part of it. So it just

0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:39.879
<v Speaker 1>bothers me when I hear shit like that. I was

0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:42.280
<v Speaker 1>listening to a dude like back to Brother k Ron

0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:45.240
<v Speaker 1>and he was telling me, he was like, yeah, ge,

0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:48.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, man, you know it's no rules, and I'm like,

0:17:48.200 --> 0:17:52.840
<v Speaker 1>there never were rules, like you don't sign a contract

0:17:52.920 --> 0:17:56.359
<v Speaker 1>when you get put on, you know, even the the

0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:59.000
<v Speaker 1>DP part of it. Like I said, That's why I

0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:01.720
<v Speaker 1>always struggle with it, because it's like nobody sit you

0:18:01.760 --> 0:18:04.560
<v Speaker 1>down and say, here are the rules, because you know what,

0:18:04.600 --> 0:18:07.480
<v Speaker 1>the fucking cornerstone rule of all of this shit is,

0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:13.760
<v Speaker 1>be a fucking man. Yeah, in the most primitive sense,

0:18:14.359 --> 0:18:17.080
<v Speaker 1>if a motherfucker go disrespect.

0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:16.600
<v Speaker 2>You.

0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:21.119
<v Speaker 1>Kick his ass, or at tend to kick his ass.

0:18:21.320 --> 0:18:24.440
<v Speaker 1>If your friend you know where to get your DP

0:18:25.080 --> 0:18:28.440
<v Speaker 1>running out on the squabble, if your homeboys are squabbling

0:18:28.480 --> 0:18:31.200
<v Speaker 1>with some other guys, you know what I'm saying, and

0:18:31.240 --> 0:18:34.720
<v Speaker 1>you run out, that may get you disciplined. There's no

0:18:34.880 --> 0:18:38.520
<v Speaker 1>rule that says you have to fight, right, there's no rule,

0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:45.040
<v Speaker 1>but if you don't, you, as a man, you're frowned upon. Right.

0:18:45.280 --> 0:18:47.520
<v Speaker 2>I think, yeah, I think that comes back to a

0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:52.080
<v Speaker 2>very foundational definition of what it is to be a man.

0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:54.240
<v Speaker 2>Like I've said, you know before, kind of touch and go.

0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:57.360
<v Speaker 2>Like men are producers and women are consumers. You're supposed

0:18:57.400 --> 0:19:00.560
<v Speaker 2>to leave more at the table than you take from it,

0:19:00.640 --> 0:19:03.320
<v Speaker 2>so to speak. In the bigger picture, if you're running

0:19:03.320 --> 0:19:06.879
<v Speaker 2>around taking more from people around you, then you're giving

0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:10.879
<v Speaker 2>to the people around you. There's not a long, you know,

0:19:11.200 --> 0:19:13.960
<v Speaker 2>long rope for that. Eventually, that's that's going to expire

0:19:14.000 --> 0:19:16.160
<v Speaker 2>pretty quickly, matter what you're doing.

0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:20.359
<v Speaker 1>I like that a lot. I like that a lot. Pete,

0:19:20.359 --> 0:19:23.360
<v Speaker 1>you've never been a gangster, but don't some of these

0:19:23.400 --> 0:19:25.920
<v Speaker 1>same rules apply to you as a man.

0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:30.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean I've been around a lot

0:19:30.720 --> 0:19:33.399
<v Speaker 2>of that kind of different communities. I've been around, you know,

0:19:33.480 --> 0:19:35.119
<v Speaker 2>gangsters for twenty years. You know.

0:19:35.200 --> 0:19:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Let's say you're not around gangsters. Let's say it's you

0:19:37.600 --> 0:19:41.320
<v Speaker 1>and you don't really got a lot of the times.

0:19:41.440 --> 0:19:45.119
<v Speaker 1>But let's say, hey, it's a tie sence. You guys

0:19:45.119 --> 0:19:50.120
<v Speaker 1>start kicking tie ass like a regular white guy from.

0:19:50.000 --> 0:19:54.119
<v Speaker 2>Okay, honey, that's that's yeah, that's that's everybody I knew

0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:55.879
<v Speaker 2>before I was probably twenty years old, you know.

0:19:57.080 --> 0:19:59.600
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, right, So let's say you and Todd, right,

0:19:59.640 --> 0:20:03.320
<v Speaker 1>because you and Todd and two guys start kicking todd ass.

0:20:03.600 --> 0:20:06.080
<v Speaker 1>What is the civilian way to deal with that?

0:20:08.119 --> 0:20:12.480
<v Speaker 2>And what's funny is you just what they call the police?

0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Why he's getting his ass?

0:20:13.520 --> 0:20:18.919
<v Speaker 2>Well, no, you gotta get in there. You kind of

0:20:18.920 --> 0:20:24.000
<v Speaker 2>gotta get in there. It depends kind of also, because

0:20:24.600 --> 0:20:28.600
<v Speaker 2>situations like that don't tend to I wouldn't say recur,

0:20:28.760 --> 0:20:30.399
<v Speaker 2>but they're not going to create a cycle, you know

0:20:30.440 --> 0:20:35.000
<v Speaker 2>what I'm saying. So, like, if Todd gets too drunk

0:20:35.000 --> 0:20:38.080
<v Speaker 2>at the bar and mouths off and throws a drink

0:20:38.080 --> 0:20:40.560
<v Speaker 2>in some girl's face and his boyfriend, his boyfriend friend

0:20:40.560 --> 0:20:42.359
<v Speaker 2>go and beat the shit out of him, and you

0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:45.159
<v Speaker 2>know that that's exactly what happened, You're gonna, you know,

0:20:45.280 --> 0:20:47.080
<v Speaker 2>keep an eye on it, make sure Todd doesn't get

0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:50.880
<v Speaker 2>killed in the back. But Todd, you asked for that one.

0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Todd.

0:20:51.160 --> 0:20:53.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm We're not all going to fuck up our careers

0:20:53.520 --> 0:20:57.160
<v Speaker 2>because you're an idiot. Okay, you wrote that check what if?

0:20:58.000 --> 0:21:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, okay, So what if Todd there's a drink in

0:21:02.000 --> 0:21:05.440
<v Speaker 1>somebody's face and three people started to kick his.

0:21:05.440 --> 0:21:08.200
<v Speaker 2>Ass, whatever the number is, you just got to kind

0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:11.280
<v Speaker 2>of make like it's funny, this is weird. This is

0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:15.399
<v Speaker 2>a very very similar situation happened with me probably the

0:21:15.440 --> 0:21:17.120
<v Speaker 2>last time. I was in our mid twenties or something

0:21:17.160 --> 0:21:19.159
<v Speaker 2>like that and went out for drinks and Newport with

0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:22.919
<v Speaker 2>my friends from high school. Everybody was wasted except for me,

0:21:23.840 --> 0:21:26.560
<v Speaker 2>because I had to drive off the peninsula and it's

0:21:26.600 --> 0:21:29.480
<v Speaker 2>like a gauntlet of dui traps to get off of there.

0:21:29.520 --> 0:21:33.200
<v Speaker 2>So I was like, I'm not sure so, which is bizarre,

0:21:33.200 --> 0:21:36.120
<v Speaker 2>because I mean, a n driving.

0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:37.560
<v Speaker 1>Is a miracle.

0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:40.119
<v Speaker 2>But for whatever reason, that night, I wasn't gonna take

0:21:40.119 --> 0:21:40.440
<v Speaker 2>a drunk.

0:21:40.440 --> 0:21:42.240
<v Speaker 1>It was no day, this was your day.

0:21:43.160 --> 0:21:46.040
<v Speaker 2>So we go to this thing and somehow I think

0:21:46.240 --> 0:21:51.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm not somehow I know how, but there's a handful

0:21:51.119 --> 0:21:54.120
<v Speaker 2>of people down there that like perceive me as being

0:21:54.280 --> 0:22:00.280
<v Speaker 2>like adjacent to like the criminal underworld. So like one

0:22:00.280 --> 0:22:03.080
<v Speaker 2>of my friends got in started some shit, and there

0:22:03.119 --> 0:22:07.520
<v Speaker 2>was four of them, four of my friends who were trashed, trashed,

0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:10.320
<v Speaker 2>and then like five or six other guys who wanted

0:22:10.359 --> 0:22:14.080
<v Speaker 2>to just smear their faces in the parking lot. And

0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:18.159
<v Speaker 2>two of those guys, the other guys knew me, So

0:22:18.200 --> 0:22:20.080
<v Speaker 2>I stood in the middle of this thing. Tried to

0:22:20.359 --> 0:22:22.360
<v Speaker 2>my friends couldn't defend themselves. I wasn't gonna fight six

0:22:22.400 --> 0:22:25.160
<v Speaker 2>guys over these idiots, so I've tried to make sure

0:22:25.160 --> 0:22:26.960
<v Speaker 2>that this doesn't really go down with that. These guys

0:22:27.000 --> 0:22:28.840
<v Speaker 2>are oh oh, bro, bro, I didn't know it was zoo.

0:22:28.920 --> 0:22:32.080
<v Speaker 2>Don't get mad at me, and I'm like, I don't

0:22:32.119 --> 0:22:33.879
<v Speaker 2>even like you, like we're not friends. Just I just

0:22:33.880 --> 0:22:36.439
<v Speaker 2>want these guys to leave. They can't hardly walk. So

0:22:36.520 --> 0:22:38.560
<v Speaker 2>I look around and no one touched me. One guy

0:22:38.600 --> 0:22:40.280
<v Speaker 2>had my friend and the headlock hit him in the head.

0:22:40.320 --> 0:22:42.119
<v Speaker 2>I grabbed the dude. I throw them on the ground.

0:22:42.200 --> 0:22:45.240
<v Speaker 2>He didn't touch me. Another guy's touched me to the face.

0:22:45.320 --> 0:22:48.520
<v Speaker 2>I grabbed him through him. No one touched I know.

0:22:48.800 --> 0:22:51.280
<v Speaker 2>I was the only person that didn't get touched. It

0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:54.639
<v Speaker 2>was the strangest thing in the world. Everybody got hit

0:22:54.680 --> 0:22:56.679
<v Speaker 2>in the face two three times. No one put a

0:22:56.920 --> 0:22:59.560
<v Speaker 2>finger on me. It was bizarre. I don't know what

0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:01.200
<v Speaker 2>to make of it. And then and then the security came,

0:23:01.240 --> 0:23:03.639
<v Speaker 2>and of course security then goes and grabs me and

0:23:03.680 --> 0:23:06.560
<v Speaker 2>nobody else but me, and some old lady who owns

0:23:06.600 --> 0:23:08.960
<v Speaker 2>the bar ran up behind me and grabbed my shirt,

0:23:08.960 --> 0:23:14.479
<v Speaker 2>and I turned in like swung, and I swung across

0:23:14.520 --> 0:23:16.560
<v Speaker 2>the arms of the old lady who grabbed my shirt,

0:23:16.560 --> 0:23:20.680
<v Speaker 2>and then everybody spazed out of me, of course, but

0:23:20.840 --> 0:23:22.639
<v Speaker 2>nothing really happened. We all made it out of there.

0:23:22.680 --> 0:23:26.200
<v Speaker 1>Okay, everyone's crazy going on? Would you do that? One?

0:23:26.359 --> 0:23:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Fucking peete bro?

0:23:30.119 --> 0:23:33.960
<v Speaker 2>So, I mean it kind of depends. There's a there's

0:23:34.040 --> 0:23:39.400
<v Speaker 2>more of a long play mentality like where I grew up,

0:23:40.240 --> 0:23:44.080
<v Speaker 2>you know then, maybe more so than when you where

0:23:44.119 --> 0:23:46.359
<v Speaker 2>you grew up to to that degree, and because you

0:23:46.400 --> 0:23:51.800
<v Speaker 2>know it has to do with with degrees of potential risk.

0:23:52.119 --> 0:23:53.920
<v Speaker 2>You know your your risk is going to be greater

0:23:54.000 --> 0:23:56.840
<v Speaker 2>in the short term. You know you do let's should

0:23:56.800 --> 0:23:58.040
<v Speaker 2>get out of hand of the short term and what

0:23:58.320 --> 0:24:01.159
<v Speaker 2>it's that's there's not going to be a long term.

0:24:01.320 --> 0:24:03.959
<v Speaker 2>You do something stupid and Newport, Yeah, you're gonna get

0:24:03.960 --> 0:24:07.360
<v Speaker 2>a shiner. What you're gonna get if a nose busted open,

0:24:07.440 --> 0:24:09.520
<v Speaker 2>that's as bad about as bad as probably gonna get

0:24:09.520 --> 0:24:12.359
<v Speaker 2>it for you. But you fuck around to put something

0:24:12.440 --> 0:24:15.160
<v Speaker 2>on your record. Now you aren't gonna be on the bar,

0:24:15.240 --> 0:24:16.640
<v Speaker 2>you aren't gonna be a lawyer, and now we're gonna

0:24:16.640 --> 0:24:19.240
<v Speaker 2>be selling insurance and making that ten ten cents on

0:24:19.280 --> 0:24:20.960
<v Speaker 2>the dollar what you were previously supposed to be making.

0:24:21.040 --> 0:24:23.440
<v Speaker 2>That's gonna fuck up your whole life. So it's it's

0:24:24.080 --> 0:24:25.760
<v Speaker 2>it's a different calculation.

0:24:28.040 --> 0:24:32.399
<v Speaker 1>Sure so, but the original point the idea right where

0:24:33.280 --> 0:24:36.520
<v Speaker 1>let's say, if let's say is you you're the dump one.

0:24:37.359 --> 0:24:38.359
<v Speaker 1>You flirt with a girl.

0:24:38.440 --> 0:24:40.879
<v Speaker 2>This is very f You just flirting with the girl.

0:24:41.080 --> 0:24:43.440
<v Speaker 1>Because it's sure something you can relate to, right, You

<v Speaker 1>you was talking to this girl. You didn't know this

0:25:43.040 --> 0:25:45.560
<v Speaker 1>was this guy's wife. So you're talking to this girl.

<v Speaker 1>They come, they kicking your ass. If Todd and Jim

0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:52.119
<v Speaker 1>don't help you, are you guys still friends?

0:25:52.600 --> 0:25:58.160
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't want them to to me personally, I'm saying,

0:25:58.200 --> 0:26:01.399
<v Speaker 2>So let's say they don't help, they better not help me.

0:26:03.440 --> 0:26:04.520
<v Speaker 1>Are y'all still friends?

0:26:05.560 --> 0:26:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Yes? Did they make that mistake?

0:26:10.359 --> 0:26:10.479
<v Speaker 1>No?

0:26:11.320 --> 0:26:13.880
<v Speaker 2>I made the mistake. I'm not going to have them

0:26:14.480 --> 0:26:17.000
<v Speaker 2>fuck off their career that they worked hard for for

0:26:17.160 --> 0:26:21.040
<v Speaker 2>thirty years of their life to attain because I fucked

0:26:21.080 --> 0:26:23.159
<v Speaker 2>up at a bar drunk. That's my problem. I have

0:26:23.200 --> 0:26:23.840
<v Speaker 2>to write that check.

0:26:24.240 --> 0:26:28.040
<v Speaker 1>Not sure, but all three of the guys kicking your ass.

0:26:28.359 --> 0:26:30.520
<v Speaker 2>I don't care if it's fifty of them. I wrote

0:26:30.520 --> 0:26:33.080
<v Speaker 2>that check, not them.

0:26:33.359 --> 0:26:35.400
<v Speaker 1>And I guess that's where it's different. Because we had

0:26:35.400 --> 0:26:40.720
<v Speaker 1>a bottlegl fuck what you did, We're gonna be squabbling them? Yeah, No,

0:26:40.800 --> 0:26:45.320
<v Speaker 1>I think And and maybe that is where maybe and

0:26:45.359 --> 0:26:47.959
<v Speaker 1>maybe that's the greatest part of this conversation, because that's

0:26:48.040 --> 0:26:53.560
<v Speaker 1>really what separates underworld life from on top.

0:26:53.400 --> 0:26:57.119
<v Speaker 2>Of that and and and yeah, that's the point in

0:26:57.240 --> 0:27:00.880
<v Speaker 2>underworld life. It's probably underworld people to deal with them

0:27:00.960 --> 0:27:05.159
<v Speaker 2>like that. Again, those three those half doesn't whoever the

0:27:05.240 --> 0:27:07.239
<v Speaker 2>hell smears my face up and down the parking lot

0:27:07.280 --> 0:27:08.960
<v Speaker 2>outside of that bar. Because I talked to that girl,

0:27:09.320 --> 0:27:11.119
<v Speaker 2>I don't have to deal with them anymore, not in

0:27:11.119 --> 0:27:11.840
<v Speaker 2>a meaningful way.

0:27:12.160 --> 0:27:15.120
<v Speaker 1>No, I agree totally. I definitely have said ample times.

0:27:15.480 --> 0:27:19.359
<v Speaker 1>Your reputation is how you earn and survive where we're from, right,

0:27:19.400 --> 0:27:25.439
<v Speaker 1>where I'm from, right, So I get it. But so

0:27:25.720 --> 0:27:28.000
<v Speaker 1>the rules are different. But I'm trying to see how

0:27:28.040 --> 0:27:31.600
<v Speaker 1>different are they anywhere else? Like, would you consider a

0:27:31.600 --> 0:27:33.800
<v Speaker 1>friend somebody who let you get your apt Let's say

0:27:33.840 --> 0:27:34.960
<v Speaker 1>you didn't do nothing wrong.

0:27:35.119 --> 0:27:37.720
<v Speaker 2>If we were all nineteen or out of high school

0:27:37.720 --> 0:27:39.360
<v Speaker 2>and it's you know, or you know, like the guys

0:27:39.400 --> 0:27:41.360
<v Speaker 2>from the football team, would ever go out and get

0:27:41.359 --> 0:27:43.800
<v Speaker 2>into a maine with the guys from the other football

0:27:43.800 --> 0:27:46.480
<v Speaker 2>team at a house party, you know, and after school

0:27:46.480 --> 0:27:49.679
<v Speaker 2>that's out in summer. Yeah, you're probably not gonna just

0:27:50.640 --> 0:27:52.800
<v Speaker 2>be cool if you let that happen, it's gonna be

0:27:52.840 --> 0:27:54.400
<v Speaker 2>a okay big so.

0:27:54.320 --> 0:27:57.840
<v Speaker 1>At least ya wouldn't be cool, kind of be like crazy, Okay.

0:28:01.480 --> 0:28:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I think that's what makes street urban culture what it is. Right,

0:28:07.840 --> 0:28:11.119
<v Speaker 1>you don't have a regular set of morality in the

0:28:11.119 --> 0:28:14.520
<v Speaker 1>mainstream world when you don't have church, Like all morality

0:28:14.600 --> 0:28:18.280
<v Speaker 1>is created by a legal president or religious president. Is

0:28:18.280 --> 0:28:21.600
<v Speaker 1>that fair to say? Like the laws determine how far

0:28:21.680 --> 0:28:27.280
<v Speaker 1>you can go, or a religious instruction or a religious

0:28:27.280 --> 0:28:30.480
<v Speaker 1>discipline instruction tell you how far you can go. Well,

0:28:30.600 --> 0:28:33.920
<v Speaker 1>the street urban culture kind of creates their own thing

0:28:34.040 --> 0:28:37.080
<v Speaker 1>right where you have to be down with your homeboy

0:28:37.280 --> 0:28:40.960
<v Speaker 1>even if he wrong. Now, don't get me wrong. If

0:28:40.960 --> 0:28:43.320
<v Speaker 1>my homie go talk and shit just and niggas, you

0:28:43.360 --> 0:28:45.600
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean, two guys and they start a fighting,

0:28:45.600 --> 0:28:48.280
<v Speaker 1>they start getting as I'm a jump in and help you,

0:28:48.280 --> 0:28:50.080
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. Now, later on in the hood,

0:28:50.120 --> 0:28:52.920
<v Speaker 1>we might have a problem later on. Me and that

0:28:53.000 --> 0:28:54.800
<v Speaker 1>dude might have a problem later on because he didn't

0:28:54.800 --> 0:28:56.880
<v Speaker 1>got me in some shit and got me into a fight.

0:28:57.400 --> 0:29:02.200
<v Speaker 1>But at that specific moment, this person means enough to

0:29:02.280 --> 0:29:05.160
<v Speaker 1>me to where I'm not gonna let y'all do anything

0:29:05.200 --> 0:29:07.320
<v Speaker 1>to him, just an.

0:29:08.520 --> 0:29:11.479
<v Speaker 2>Is there a component of this where, let's say, if

0:29:11.480 --> 0:29:13.920
<v Speaker 2>it's your only dealing with guys from the seven and

0:29:14.040 --> 0:29:16.200
<v Speaker 2>only deal with other guys who are like put on

0:29:16.280 --> 0:29:22.000
<v Speaker 2>someplace else where, it's a bad reflection on Seventh Street

0:29:22.040 --> 0:29:25.400
<v Speaker 2>crypt in general, Like, you can't have that the perception

0:29:25.560 --> 0:29:30.040
<v Speaker 2>be that anybody or whoever from over there can goop

0:29:30.080 --> 0:29:32.480
<v Speaker 2>by somebody else. You have to protect that brand.

0:29:32.280 --> 0:29:35.120
<v Speaker 1>Have them. That's the cornerstone. It's the reputation of pride

0:29:35.120 --> 0:29:37.720
<v Speaker 1>of ego because poor people, that's all you have. So

0:29:38.160 --> 0:29:40.720
<v Speaker 1>everything you earn is off of just that alone. Like

0:29:40.800 --> 0:29:43.000
<v Speaker 1>people pay your debts back based off of what you

0:29:43.040 --> 0:29:45.600
<v Speaker 1>will do to them. They don't. They don't pay your

0:29:45.640 --> 0:29:48.920
<v Speaker 1>debts back because they're honorable. I just had this conversation

0:29:49.880 --> 0:29:51.959
<v Speaker 1>with someone. I can't remember who it was, but I'm like,

0:29:52.960 --> 0:29:55.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't act the way I'm acting because it's reciprocal,

0:29:56.560 --> 0:29:59.280
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. The crip in me is

0:29:59.320 --> 0:30:02.200
<v Speaker 1>not that person because it's reciprocal. It's because this is

0:30:02.240 --> 0:30:05.280
<v Speaker 1>how everybody else is. I'm need because of how Olivia

0:30:05.400 --> 0:30:08.080
<v Speaker 1>raised me. Right, So even let's pull it out of

0:30:08.120 --> 0:30:10.080
<v Speaker 1>the rim of gangs and bring it back into just

0:30:10.160 --> 0:30:13.040
<v Speaker 1>living right, how I interact with women. I treat a

0:30:13.080 --> 0:30:16.440
<v Speaker 1>prostitute in a nun the same exact way if a

0:30:16.480 --> 0:30:18.440
<v Speaker 1>prostitute was coming into a restaurant.

0:30:18.720 --> 0:30:22.280
<v Speaker 2>I hold, oh, I didn't know if that you treated

0:30:22.360 --> 0:30:24.960
<v Speaker 2>nuns like prostitutes or prostitutes like nuns.

0:30:24.880 --> 0:30:27.160
<v Speaker 1>Or they all get treated the same, you know what

0:30:27.200 --> 0:30:29.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean? On the meats, on the getting out right,

0:30:29.760 --> 0:30:32.440
<v Speaker 1>it's like, you know what I mean, Like I would

0:30:32.480 --> 0:30:35.600
<v Speaker 1>hold the door open for a nun or a prostitute,

0:30:36.720 --> 0:30:38.400
<v Speaker 1>like they're the same. I would hold the door open

0:30:38.480 --> 0:30:41.080
<v Speaker 1>because it's not a representation of who they are. It's

0:30:41.120 --> 0:30:44.440
<v Speaker 1>a representation of who my mama was, who Olivia was.

0:30:45.240 --> 0:30:48.280
<v Speaker 1>But I realized the type of intellect and discipline that

0:30:48.280 --> 0:30:51.920
<v Speaker 1>that takes and requires to happen. And I also understand

0:30:51.920 --> 0:30:55.920
<v Speaker 1>that most human beings don't operate in that space. Most

0:30:56.000 --> 0:31:00.640
<v Speaker 1>human beings operate in the reciprocal space, you know what

0:31:00.680 --> 0:31:03.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, where it's like I'm gonna treat you how

0:31:03.480 --> 0:31:05.640
<v Speaker 1>you desire to be treated, or I'm gonna treat you

0:31:05.880 --> 0:31:08.960
<v Speaker 1>how you treat me. See, I'm the exact opposite. Even

0:31:09.000 --> 0:31:12.080
<v Speaker 1>as a gang member, I'm not gonna treat a homie

0:31:12.080 --> 0:31:14.160
<v Speaker 1>how they treat me. I'm gonna treat you how I

0:31:14.200 --> 0:31:18.320
<v Speaker 1>treat anybody else I'm gonna treat I think I'm gonna

0:31:18.360 --> 0:31:23.200
<v Speaker 1>treat the most markets person and the hardest person exactly

0:31:23.200 --> 0:31:26.600
<v Speaker 1>the same until either one do some shit to me,

0:31:27.040 --> 0:31:28.720
<v Speaker 1>and then the hardest nigg gonna have to prove you

0:31:28.800 --> 0:31:31.840
<v Speaker 1>the hardest nigga, and then the markets nigga gonna actually

0:31:31.840 --> 0:31:33.560
<v Speaker 1>have to get some guns because either way, if they

0:31:33.680 --> 0:31:37.000
<v Speaker 1>violate me, foriman, we got a problem.

0:31:37.040 --> 0:31:41.160
<v Speaker 2>Sure, I would say that to a large degree, most

0:31:41.240 --> 0:31:47.240
<v Speaker 2>people are governed by deterrence micro and macro. You're not

0:31:47.360 --> 0:31:50.280
<v Speaker 2>so much governed by deterrence. You're governed by your own

0:31:50.920 --> 0:31:56.800
<v Speaker 2>personal standard. Because deterrence is I mean you, I'm sure

0:31:56.800 --> 0:32:01.000
<v Speaker 2>on a given day you there's not enoughing. You'll dieveris

0:32:01.080 --> 0:32:03.200
<v Speaker 2>you'll go to jail for this. Those are the deterrence

0:32:03.240 --> 0:32:04.760
<v Speaker 2>if you don't care about those things and you're doing

0:32:04.800 --> 0:32:05.320
<v Speaker 2>what you want.

0:32:05.160 --> 0:32:10.960
<v Speaker 1>To do well being black in America and be a

0:32:11.000 --> 0:32:14.560
<v Speaker 1>street in America, right, because it is they they're not

0:32:14.600 --> 0:32:17.080
<v Speaker 1>the same. Because this is a whole bunch of Irish people.

0:32:17.160 --> 0:32:19.560
<v Speaker 1>I tire people the street feel me. It's a lot

0:32:19.560 --> 0:32:24.480
<v Speaker 1>of motherfucker uhuh Chicano Latin people streets. So being black

0:32:24.520 --> 0:32:28.560
<v Speaker 1>and being street, I've realized something that makes me unique

0:32:28.600 --> 0:32:31.480
<v Speaker 1>than a lot of people in America as well. The

0:32:31.640 --> 0:32:35.200
<v Speaker 1>quality of my life is more important than the preservation itself.

0:32:38.120 --> 0:32:41.680
<v Speaker 1>That's one thing that I really believe is the cornerstone

0:32:41.720 --> 0:32:45.360
<v Speaker 1>to street urban culture or gang life, or whatever you

0:32:45.400 --> 0:32:48.760
<v Speaker 1>want to call it. The quality of life is more

0:32:48.800 --> 0:32:52.120
<v Speaker 1>important than life itself, than just the preservation. And I

0:32:52.240 --> 0:32:54.840
<v Speaker 1>noticed that that's not common. Like we were me and

0:32:54.920 --> 0:32:57.480
<v Speaker 1>the homies talking about the stuff that happened with Kodak

0:32:57.480 --> 0:33:00.480
<v Speaker 1>Black and and Takashia, and they was like, oh, you

0:33:00.480 --> 0:33:03.240
<v Speaker 1>know Glass, he paid him a million dollars. First off,

0:33:03.280 --> 0:33:05.880
<v Speaker 1>that's just not true. I don't want to get into that.

0:33:05.880 --> 0:33:08.000
<v Speaker 1>That's just not true. I don't give fuck how much

0:33:08.000 --> 0:33:10.400
<v Speaker 1>bullshit they gonna put up. It's just not I just

0:33:10.440 --> 0:33:12.200
<v Speaker 1>know the business well enough to know that that's not

0:33:12.240 --> 0:33:14.640
<v Speaker 1>what you would pay, right. I don't care what it is.

0:33:15.000 --> 0:33:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:33:16.240 --> 0:33:19.280
<v Speaker 1>But another thing that was important was to listen to

0:33:19.320 --> 0:33:24.560
<v Speaker 1>people rationalize it and them just saying, like another guy tells, me, oh, well,

0:33:24.720 --> 0:33:27.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't care about street at street politics,

0:33:27.280 --> 0:33:30.240
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, this is not about street politics like

0:33:30.320 --> 0:33:33.440
<v Speaker 1>this is about men being men, you know what I mean?

0:33:33.560 --> 0:33:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Like and and the more I listened to him talk,

0:33:37.280 --> 0:33:41.040
<v Speaker 1>I realized he didn't have a backbone, like he would

0:33:41.120 --> 0:33:44.360
<v Speaker 1>suck a dick to stay alive. And that's to me

0:33:44.520 --> 0:33:49.360
<v Speaker 1>how I feel like, Pete. I don't think you are

0:33:49.480 --> 0:33:52.320
<v Speaker 1>no gangster. I do think there's a bit of outlaw

0:33:52.360 --> 0:33:54.760
<v Speaker 1>in you. I don't think the law determines And I

0:33:54.760 --> 0:34:01.040
<v Speaker 1>think even most what people referred to as conservative people,

0:34:02.080 --> 0:34:04.160
<v Speaker 1>there is a greater sense of law. There is a

0:34:04.240 --> 0:34:09.000
<v Speaker 1>really simple list of laws they fuck with and everything else.

0:34:09.320 --> 0:34:10.080
<v Speaker 1>It could be whatever.

0:34:10.880 --> 0:34:16.880
<v Speaker 2>They're very like real I'm like half conservative. People that

0:34:16.960 --> 0:34:20.280
<v Speaker 2>are like really conservative are very very much they operate

0:34:20.320 --> 0:34:23.279
<v Speaker 2>in a very strictly defined space because yeah, they very

0:34:23.360 --> 0:34:26.200
<v Speaker 2>much respect the law, but they also very much are

0:34:26.800 --> 0:34:30.879
<v Speaker 2>biblical people, so they respect that law too. So they're

0:34:30.880 --> 0:34:35.200
<v Speaker 2>operating in a confine of layers of laws that they

0:34:35.239 --> 0:34:39.040
<v Speaker 2>respect and attempt to adhere to their best ability all

0:34:39.080 --> 0:34:42.080
<v Speaker 2>the time. It's a very restrictive mind style.

0:34:44.120 --> 0:34:47.520
<v Speaker 1>It's funny because you're restrictive for me, and it's crazy

0:34:47.520 --> 0:34:49.799
<v Speaker 1>because the way society is set up, because you would

0:34:49.840 --> 0:34:53.720
<v Speaker 1>think liberal people would be the more adherent to rules

0:34:53.800 --> 0:34:58.520
<v Speaker 1>and standards, and it's like no, Like, it's the exact opposite.

0:34:58.600 --> 0:35:04.239
<v Speaker 1>Conservative and Republicans are more adherent to like rules and standards.

0:35:04.680 --> 0:35:07.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, liberal people adhere to rules and standards when they

0:35:07.440 --> 0:35:12.280
<v Speaker 2>have power and they're in charge and they're writing the rules.

0:35:13.560 --> 0:35:14.600
<v Speaker 1>Do they then still?

0:35:17.120 --> 0:35:17.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:35:18.160 --> 0:35:20.879
<v Speaker 1>I think they make the rules as they go. That's

0:35:20.960 --> 0:35:22.799
<v Speaker 1>kind of the whole point of liberals, like, oh, every

0:35:22.880 --> 0:35:24.800
<v Speaker 1>day it's a new rule because it might need to change.

0:35:24.800 --> 0:35:27.160
<v Speaker 1>And it's like, well, I think the standard of life

0:35:27.200 --> 0:35:29.520
<v Speaker 1>should stay the same. I think I think, no matter

0:35:29.560 --> 0:35:32.040
<v Speaker 1>what's going on, we should keep the same standard. You

0:35:32.040 --> 0:35:35.640
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean of living? I don't. It's like

0:35:39.520 --> 0:35:44.400
<v Speaker 1>people dying because somebody is using a gun does not

0:35:44.560 --> 0:35:49.239
<v Speaker 1>mean the solution is to outlaw gun. It depends on

0:35:49.320 --> 0:35:52.279
<v Speaker 1>why the gun was created, what was the gun for,

0:35:52.440 --> 0:35:55.279
<v Speaker 1>why was the gun ordained? If that purpose is no

0:35:55.360 --> 0:36:01.200
<v Speaker 1>longer being served, I understand the rule change. True, But

0:36:01.280 --> 0:36:07.759
<v Speaker 1>back to the point, should I lost my damn train

0:36:07.840 --> 0:36:12.680
<v Speaker 1>of thought because motherfucker rules people? And uh oh okay,

0:36:12.680 --> 0:36:14.680
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, I would treat it none and to prostitute

0:36:14.680 --> 0:36:18.799
<v Speaker 1>the exact same way. So forth a song, So it

0:36:18.840 --> 0:36:22.520
<v Speaker 1>doesn't matter to me, Like I realized people don't. So

0:36:22.640 --> 0:36:26.279
<v Speaker 1>you need to shape society into a moral place for

0:36:26.400 --> 0:36:32.280
<v Speaker 1>most human beings to have morals, Like I never thought

0:36:32.320 --> 0:36:35.640
<v Speaker 1>in a million years, bro, Like I remember, I never

0:36:35.680 --> 0:36:39.600
<v Speaker 1>had a problem with like the alphabet mafia, that movement.

0:36:39.680 --> 0:36:42.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, it makes sense for me, I got it.

0:36:42.760 --> 0:36:45.640
<v Speaker 1>I always thought liberally, like, oh that makes sense, you

0:36:45.640 --> 0:36:48.760
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean, Like, shouldn't nobody be killed because

0:36:48.800 --> 0:36:51.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, shouldn't nobody be discriminated against because of their

0:36:51.600 --> 0:36:54.880
<v Speaker 1>sexual preference. I'm thinking like life and death, you know

0:36:54.920 --> 0:36:56.920
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. I'm like, yo, I don't want to

0:36:56.920 --> 0:37:00.320
<v Speaker 1>see nobody die because you know, like some guys sleeps

0:37:00.360 --> 0:37:02.959
<v Speaker 1>with guys, you know what I mean. Like that ain't

0:37:03.000 --> 0:37:08.600
<v Speaker 1>the solution. But I didn't mind the actual campaigns. I

0:37:08.640 --> 0:37:10.760
<v Speaker 1>was like, okay, you want to make people more comfortable

0:37:10.760 --> 0:37:13.200
<v Speaker 1>with it. Like I saw growing up, you know, people

0:37:13.280 --> 0:37:16.720
<v Speaker 1>dying of age. My mom took care of termally ill patience,

0:37:16.719 --> 0:37:19.920
<v Speaker 1>and at that time, you know, people really had aids,

0:37:19.960 --> 0:37:22.160
<v Speaker 1>like the real aids, not the New Age, but like

0:37:22.800 --> 0:37:25.480
<v Speaker 1>the real aid where you get them silver dollars sores,

0:37:25.520 --> 0:37:27.560
<v Speaker 1>oh your body. So I met a lot of gay

0:37:27.600 --> 0:37:31.320
<v Speaker 1>people in Beverly hills and really nice places, white people dying.

0:37:31.719 --> 0:37:34.360
<v Speaker 1>So I always had like, I never thought of a

0:37:34.360 --> 0:37:36.400
<v Speaker 1>gay person, it's different. I just thought that was just

0:37:36.400 --> 0:37:39.719
<v Speaker 1>who you was fucking right. But I realized other people

0:37:39.719 --> 0:37:41.960
<v Speaker 1>would pick on gay people, so I got it. But

0:37:42.080 --> 0:37:44.759
<v Speaker 1>now sometimes I look and I'm not sure. And the

0:37:44.840 --> 0:37:48.760
<v Speaker 1>only reason that is is because where the human condition

0:37:48.960 --> 0:37:53.720
<v Speaker 1>is right now, Like I genuinely think there are people

0:37:53.880 --> 0:37:57.440
<v Speaker 1>acting like they are gay to have people concerned and

0:37:57.040 --> 0:37:59.840
<v Speaker 1>to feel like people care about them, to be relevant

0:38:00.040 --> 0:38:03.759
<v Speaker 1>in other people's life. And there's nobody. You could have

0:38:03.840 --> 0:38:07.040
<v Speaker 1>told me that somebody would act like they take a

0:38:07.080 --> 0:38:09.319
<v Speaker 1>dick to be down.

0:38:09.480 --> 0:38:12.319
<v Speaker 2>That's that's a that's a tough one. That's a that's

0:38:12.360 --> 0:38:15.160
<v Speaker 2>a big ask. Yeah, and it's like it's a big as.

0:38:15.360 --> 0:38:16.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't know about that.

0:38:17.160 --> 0:38:23.680
<v Speaker 3>I know it, Wow, I know it. Wow, I'm sure

0:38:25.239 --> 0:38:28.960
<v Speaker 3>like I know people, Oh who are.

0:38:30.719 --> 0:38:35.520
<v Speaker 2>I think that bud light guy like moved to Europe

0:38:36.000 --> 0:38:38.719
<v Speaker 2>and looks like not so much like a girl and

0:38:38.840 --> 0:38:42.799
<v Speaker 2>more is like yating a chick. I guess I think

0:38:42.840 --> 0:38:45.800
<v Speaker 2>that's that's true. I have to have to verify that

0:38:45.120 --> 0:38:46.480
<v Speaker 2>if you have.

0:38:46.480 --> 0:38:51.640
<v Speaker 1>The economic if you have the economic means, you can

0:38:51.719 --> 0:38:54.520
<v Speaker 1>push your agenda through whoever people and people are. And

0:38:54.840 --> 0:38:58.240
<v Speaker 1>it goes back to that conversation about like a Kodak

0:38:58.320 --> 0:39:00.880
<v Speaker 1>doing a song with Takashi. It goes back to that,

0:39:01.280 --> 0:39:06.080
<v Speaker 1>right cause it's like my issue with that whole thing

0:39:06.239 --> 0:39:12.040
<v Speaker 1>was like, we're watching this guy right slowly show you like, oh, yo,

0:39:12.560 --> 0:39:15.040
<v Speaker 1>he goes to these countries and these countries don't have

0:39:15.080 --> 0:39:16.799
<v Speaker 1>black people, and you could tell that they don't care

0:39:16.840 --> 0:39:19.040
<v Speaker 1>that he told on some black people, or in their

0:39:19.080 --> 0:39:21.759
<v Speaker 1>mind they're like, oh, okay, you know what, you know

0:39:21.880 --> 0:39:23.560
<v Speaker 1>there are criminals and he wasn't. And it's like the

0:39:23.600 --> 0:39:25.319
<v Speaker 1>only reason you think he's not a criminal is because

0:39:25.320 --> 0:39:28.040
<v Speaker 1>he's like you know what I mean, Like, if you

0:39:28.080 --> 0:39:30.000
<v Speaker 1>look at his history, he's obviously a criminal. Like he

0:39:30.320 --> 0:39:33.240
<v Speaker 1>understood it. He just knew that people didn't care about

0:39:33.280 --> 0:39:36.080
<v Speaker 1>black people. So you show somebody that's pretty much at

0:39:36.080 --> 0:39:41.160
<v Speaker 1>this point exploiting people that look like you. So when

0:39:41.239 --> 0:39:44.320
<v Speaker 1>he said, hey, would you do this verse that stuff

0:39:44.360 --> 0:39:49.560
<v Speaker 1>for way more than just hey, working with somebody who's unaccountable.

0:39:50.440 --> 0:39:54.799
<v Speaker 1>It's the equivalent of a man saying, hey, can I

0:39:54.880 --> 0:39:58.359
<v Speaker 1>fuck you and ask for a million dollars and then

0:39:58.400 --> 0:40:00.120
<v Speaker 1>you feel like, well, I got a million dollars and

0:40:00.160 --> 0:40:04.759
<v Speaker 1>you showed it to everybody. But it's like, yeah, like

0:40:05.040 --> 0:40:07.560
<v Speaker 1>that's how it is. It's like, oh, like it's like

0:40:07.680 --> 0:40:10.759
<v Speaker 1>money is not the ultimate solution. Money is not the

0:40:10.840 --> 0:40:13.960
<v Speaker 1>ultimate goal. And that's what I think is getting lost

0:40:14.000 --> 0:40:15.960
<v Speaker 1>in this world. And it's crazy because when you think

0:40:15.960 --> 0:40:19.080
<v Speaker 1>about books like the Bible and different ideas, they talk

0:40:19.160 --> 0:40:24.400
<v Speaker 1>about this time where money becomes so important to human beings,

0:40:24.440 --> 0:40:27.520
<v Speaker 1>not even for a read, not even for a reasonable

0:40:27.600 --> 0:40:31.680
<v Speaker 1>means of just staying alive, because just to having excess,

0:40:31.760 --> 0:40:34.520
<v Speaker 1>to feel like they are special, because they are tainted.

0:40:34.600 --> 0:40:38.200
<v Speaker 1>Because Kodak Black is not somebody who really needed a

0:40:38.280 --> 0:40:41.839
<v Speaker 1>million dollars from Takashi. Now I'm not saying Kodak Black

0:40:41.840 --> 0:40:43.640
<v Speaker 1>can make a million dollars standing on top of his head,

0:40:43.680 --> 0:40:48.120
<v Speaker 1>but Kodak Black is in Yeah, he can pretty much

0:40:48.160 --> 0:40:51.120
<v Speaker 1>put together a run. So there is no reason I

0:40:51.120 --> 0:40:54.680
<v Speaker 1>could see if he went paid some new rapper coming

0:40:54.760 --> 0:40:57.080
<v Speaker 1>up out of Watch that was a real nigga out

0:40:57.360 --> 0:41:00.960
<v Speaker 1>out of the nigger sins and he didn't have ship. Okay,

0:41:01.120 --> 0:41:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I get it, you already got some money. You just

0:41:06.560 --> 0:41:09.319
<v Speaker 1>wanted to stand no matter how he put it, you

0:41:09.520 --> 0:41:12.439
<v Speaker 1>just wanted to stand and even like when I look

0:41:12.480 --> 0:41:14.920
<v Speaker 1>at the whole scene, it's like the belief is you're

0:41:15.080 --> 0:41:17.840
<v Speaker 1>like there's a group of people on the internet like

0:41:17.840 --> 0:41:20.799
<v Speaker 1>they're lying from the campaign against the street, except they're

0:41:20.840 --> 0:41:22.920
<v Speaker 1>all posing like their street.

0:41:23.360 --> 0:41:26.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's funny. You know what, what would be interesting

0:41:27.239 --> 0:41:31.160
<v Speaker 2>I would love to see if you could call here

0:41:31.480 --> 0:41:33.960
<v Speaker 2>figure this out, like invest in afternoon in this for me.

0:41:34.400 --> 0:41:37.080
<v Speaker 2>I want you to make whatever phone call you have

0:41:37.160 --> 0:41:39.399
<v Speaker 2>to make to get the number to make whatever other

0:41:39.480 --> 0:41:41.200
<v Speaker 2>phone call you have to make, so well you can

0:41:41.239 --> 0:41:43.840
<v Speaker 2>do a compared and contrast, because I am willing to

0:41:43.880 --> 0:41:49.200
<v Speaker 2>bet right now that sexy read the self professed prostitute

0:41:49.480 --> 0:41:52.040
<v Speaker 2>would not do a sault with the Kashi six for

0:41:52.200 --> 0:41:57.560
<v Speaker 2>the Moneywell god, and that's St.

0:41:57.600 --> 0:41:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Louis.

0:41:57.960 --> 0:41:59.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm not doing that shit.

0:41:59.560 --> 0:42:03.200
<v Speaker 1>Man, because at the end of the day, motherfuckers really know,

0:42:03.640 --> 0:42:07.799
<v Speaker 1>even if they can't articulate, what's their problem with somebody

0:42:08.239 --> 0:42:11.640
<v Speaker 1>really snitching. It's a deep down thing when you just

0:42:11.680 --> 0:42:15.520
<v Speaker 1>look like you. Even the police police be like whole

0:42:15.640 --> 0:42:20.320
<v Speaker 1>ass nick Like nobody likes a motherfucking man who doesn't

0:42:20.360 --> 0:42:21.399
<v Speaker 1>want to be accountable.

0:42:22.520 --> 0:42:27.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you ever see the guys like uh Verse forty

0:42:27.239 --> 0:42:30.880
<v Speaker 2>eight when they're talking to the shooter and he cracks,

0:42:31.120 --> 0:42:34.000
<v Speaker 2>they're like high fiving and shit. But then when they're

0:42:34.000 --> 0:42:36.000
<v Speaker 2>talking to like the shooter's friend or the shooters and

0:42:36.080 --> 0:42:39.480
<v Speaker 2>crackship but the snitch like sold them out, they all

0:42:39.520 --> 0:42:44.120
<v Speaker 2>go the hallway and start laughing hysterically. They're not high

0:42:44.120 --> 0:42:47.160
<v Speaker 2>fiving the same way. They're like, get here. They slam

0:42:47.200 --> 0:42:49.360
<v Speaker 2>the door, bursting hysterics by the water cooler.

0:42:50.000 --> 0:42:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Nobody respects it, and just somewhere along the line has

0:42:54.480 --> 0:42:58.960
<v Speaker 1>been painted like it's just black. And that's my problem

0:42:58.960 --> 0:43:02.080
<v Speaker 1>with that post. But that's also my problem when people

0:43:02.080 --> 0:43:05.280
<v Speaker 1>talk about hip hop. Hip hop is street urban culture.

0:43:05.840 --> 0:43:08.359
<v Speaker 1>I get it, and I promise myself I wouldn't say

0:43:08.360 --> 0:43:12.920
<v Speaker 1>this publicly, but it's bothering me. It's too much. There's

0:43:12.960 --> 0:43:16.880
<v Speaker 1>there's a space in Black America where people are ignoring

0:43:17.040 --> 0:43:21.160
<v Speaker 1>the influences of street urban culture from Jewish people, from

0:43:21.160 --> 0:43:25.479
<v Speaker 1>Italian people, from Irish people, and from Latino people into

0:43:25.560 --> 0:43:29.239
<v Speaker 1>the shape of this culture or into all street urban cultures.

0:43:29.480 --> 0:43:32.840
<v Speaker 1>It's the reason why every motherfucking hood or every gang

0:43:32.880 --> 0:43:37.920
<v Speaker 1>got a capone that is not that's not a name

0:43:38.080 --> 0:43:41.759
<v Speaker 1>that just you just made up. That's that's the motherfucking

0:43:41.800 --> 0:43:43.680
<v Speaker 1>person obout.

0:43:43.360 --> 0:43:47.120
<v Speaker 2>Like fivepers Gotti in their name, and so yeah, it's.

0:43:46.920 --> 0:43:51.560
<v Speaker 1>A reason why Gotti isn't everybody's name. And it's just

0:43:52.000 --> 0:43:56.160
<v Speaker 1>intellectually lazy and disingenuous to act like you don't recognize

0:43:56.400 --> 0:44:00.640
<v Speaker 1>everybody else contribution to it. And and that's how I

0:44:00.680 --> 0:44:03.400
<v Speaker 1>feel about this whole conversation even with that, like he

0:44:03.560 --> 0:44:08.759
<v Speaker 1>specifically is catering that to just Black people, like the

0:44:08.880 --> 0:44:11.719
<v Speaker 1>street life only belongs to us. And then you'll have

0:44:11.760 --> 0:44:14.680
<v Speaker 1>people that will say, well, I ain't worried about nobody else. Well,

0:44:14.680 --> 0:44:17.360
<v Speaker 1>if you're not accepting that this is a human condition

0:44:17.480 --> 0:44:21.440
<v Speaker 1>of poor people around the world, then you're just not

0:44:21.719 --> 0:44:24.800
<v Speaker 1>really And this is what I was telling Karan, brother, Karan,

0:44:25.200 --> 0:44:28.279
<v Speaker 1>If you're not accepting that this is a condition for

0:44:28.360 --> 0:44:31.120
<v Speaker 1>poor and oppressed people around the world, they're doing this

0:44:31.160 --> 0:44:35.680
<v Speaker 1>shit everywhere, right, then then we're not having a really

0:44:35.680 --> 0:44:38.960
<v Speaker 1>intelligent conversation. We're like, how do we solve one problem

0:44:39.000 --> 0:44:41.719
<v Speaker 1>when this is everybody's problem? Or why is it just

0:44:41.760 --> 0:44:44.160
<v Speaker 1>our problem when it is everybody problem? Like I hate

0:44:44.160 --> 0:44:47.200
<v Speaker 1>that rhetoric that you know, black people, I don't what

0:44:47.239 --> 0:44:49.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't like about gangers. You know, they don't target anybody,

0:44:49.840 --> 0:44:53.960
<v Speaker 1>only black people. Well, Russia is targeting Ukraine.

0:44:54.160 --> 0:44:55.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And you can go back through history as far

0:44:55.920 --> 0:44:59.400
<v Speaker 2>as stitching goes. You see that anytime that there's a

0:44:59.480 --> 0:45:03.600
<v Speaker 2>resistance against an oppressive governing body, whether it's on the

0:45:03.719 --> 0:45:07.120
<v Speaker 2>rise or on the fall, and they try to shake out,

0:45:07.400 --> 0:45:12.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, their opposition, there's there's always gonna be degrees

0:45:12.239 --> 0:45:15.399
<v Speaker 2>of strength among men and people who will sell out.

0:45:15.480 --> 0:45:17.799
<v Speaker 2>You know, there's there's your Oscar Schindlers. Then there's the other,

0:45:18.080 --> 0:45:20.600
<v Speaker 2>the other opposite person who says no, no, no, no no.

0:45:21.400 --> 0:45:21.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh.

0:45:21.600 --> 0:45:23.560
<v Speaker 2>You know what you know, the opposite of Oscar Schindler

0:45:23.640 --> 0:45:33.160
<v Speaker 2>is George Soros's father. Wow, there's Schindler, or there's Sorows. Oh,

0:45:33.280 --> 0:45:35.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't see any Jews here. I'm just running my

0:45:35.480 --> 0:45:38.239
<v Speaker 2>train train full of Jews getting out of the you know,

0:45:38.600 --> 0:45:41.600
<v Speaker 2>the gas chamber from Hitler or whatever Schendler's doing. We'll

0:45:41.600 --> 0:45:44.960
<v Speaker 2>give you a million dollars. You can points to some Jews. Oh,

0:45:45.120 --> 0:45:48.480
<v Speaker 2>thank you for Sorows. So they're over there at Schindler's absolutely,

0:45:49.320 --> 0:45:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Now where's my check?

0:45:51.239 --> 0:45:53.440
<v Speaker 1>And it's crazy because you think about it like if

0:45:53.760 --> 0:45:58.319
<v Speaker 1>if if the law is your reasoning, Well, that's the

0:45:58.320 --> 0:46:01.680
<v Speaker 1>same reason why people total lot of slag rebellions. Those

0:46:01.719 --> 0:46:05.160
<v Speaker 1>slag rebellions were they were they were pretty much rated

0:46:05.200 --> 0:46:07.600
<v Speaker 1>out by snitches. Dude who's on the plantations, Like, well,

0:46:07.640 --> 0:46:10.480
<v Speaker 1>y'all breaking the law, and it's like, god, damn, you

0:46:10.480 --> 0:46:13.760
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean. Like, like, I don't think nobody

0:46:13.800 --> 0:46:16.400
<v Speaker 1>would be upset if you if you told the police

0:46:16.440 --> 0:46:19.759
<v Speaker 1>on somebody murdering a four year old kid. Like if

0:46:19.760 --> 0:46:22.480
<v Speaker 1>some guy murdered a four year old kid and you

0:46:22.640 --> 0:46:26.160
<v Speaker 1>murdered a four year old kid and there's no movement exactly,

0:46:26.160 --> 0:46:29.080
<v Speaker 1>nobody would be like, are you snitch as you told them?

0:46:29.360 --> 0:46:31.840
<v Speaker 1>You know what I mean. Like niggas would be just like, damn,

0:46:32.000 --> 0:46:33.879
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, You're you'll turn your back

0:46:33.920 --> 0:46:41.200
<v Speaker 1>you because nobody all that guy snitch. If you were

0:46:41.280 --> 0:46:43.839
<v Speaker 1>raped the girl, If you raped the girl and you

0:46:43.880 --> 0:46:46.120
<v Speaker 1>called the police on your homies, you know what I mean,

0:46:46.120 --> 0:46:49.160
<v Speaker 1>that was raping a five year old girl, nobody's gonna

0:46:49.160 --> 0:46:49.840
<v Speaker 1>call you a snitch.

0:46:50.560 --> 0:46:52.239
<v Speaker 2>No, they might be like, why did you just shoot him?

0:46:53.719 --> 0:46:56.040
<v Speaker 1>But it's just you know what I mean. But but

0:46:56.080 --> 0:46:58.600
<v Speaker 1>the point of being an outlaw is to handle things

0:46:58.719 --> 0:47:03.680
<v Speaker 1>outside of the law. Yeah, out law outside of the law.

0:47:04.200 --> 0:47:07.680
<v Speaker 1>So I think that expectation is just a lot for

0:47:07.840 --> 0:47:11.600
<v Speaker 1>human beings to understand that lives their life within the law.

0:47:13.800 --> 0:47:16.719
<v Speaker 1>But I'll be thinking some of this shit is so standard,

0:47:17.000 --> 0:47:20.040
<v Speaker 1>Like I get what you're saying, Like, let's say you

0:47:20.160 --> 0:47:22.560
<v Speaker 1>wrong in that situation, right, and that guy jump on

0:47:22.600 --> 0:47:24.760
<v Speaker 1>you for trying to talk to his girl with his friends,

0:47:24.920 --> 0:47:26.880
<v Speaker 1>and your homies don't help. Right, they don't help you

0:47:26.960 --> 0:47:29.839
<v Speaker 1>because you was wrong. But what if you weren't wrong?

0:47:30.719 --> 0:47:32.680
<v Speaker 1>What if they just start kicking your ass because it

0:47:32.719 --> 0:47:35.040
<v Speaker 1>was kicked pete as day, I don't like your favors

0:47:35.640 --> 0:47:38.359
<v Speaker 1>and they just start kicking your ass. I would expect

0:47:39.120 --> 0:47:41.640
<v Speaker 1>I would hope you would expect your friends to help you.

0:47:41.680 --> 0:47:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it ain't no got the greatest hands, you know

0:47:46.040 --> 0:47:48.479
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying, But I would hope that you would

0:47:48.480 --> 0:47:51.000
<v Speaker 1>expect your friends to stand up with you. And I

0:47:51.040 --> 0:47:51.719
<v Speaker 1>think that's the.

0:47:53.520 --> 0:47:55.120
<v Speaker 2>Just do the right thing, you know what I mean,

0:47:55.400 --> 0:47:57.640
<v Speaker 2>Do the right thing, Let the right thing, Let the

0:47:57.719 --> 0:48:00.600
<v Speaker 2>right thing be done. I'll say that I'm what's the.

0:48:00.680 --> 0:48:03.239
<v Speaker 1>Right thing at that point? Like, would you be bad

0:48:03.239 --> 0:48:05.080
<v Speaker 1>at me if two guys was kicking your ass and

0:48:05.080 --> 0:48:07.120
<v Speaker 1>you was wrong and I helped you. Glass, I'm not

0:48:07.120 --> 0:48:08.839
<v Speaker 1>fucking you just going to throw your life away from

0:48:08.840 --> 0:48:16.440
<v Speaker 1>helping me. I hope it is way for.

0:48:17.960 --> 0:48:20.200
<v Speaker 2>You and your family. I'd be pretty damn disappointed you

0:48:20.200 --> 0:48:21.520
<v Speaker 2>be like, all the fuck you do that. I've had

0:48:21.520 --> 0:48:23.799
<v Speaker 2>that one coming. I had it coming to me. Why

0:48:23.840 --> 0:48:26.319
<v Speaker 2>the fuck do you funk over the people close to

0:48:26.360 --> 0:48:29.920
<v Speaker 2>you like that? They rely on you. I'm a ship

0:48:29.920 --> 0:48:32.439
<v Speaker 2>throw out.

0:48:32.480 --> 0:48:36.400
<v Speaker 1>That's this is a really interesting conversation right here. You

0:48:36.440 --> 0:48:39.440
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean because my brother, my younger brother,

0:48:39.719 --> 0:48:41.960
<v Speaker 1>I respected him, but he got a lot of homeboys

0:48:41.960 --> 0:48:44.200
<v Speaker 1>out of the situation that he got him in, and

0:48:44.200 --> 0:48:47.080
<v Speaker 1>he got him out of it by being accountable. And

0:48:47.360 --> 0:48:50.520
<v Speaker 1>so again it's still rooted than masculinity. Even your stands

0:48:50.680 --> 0:48:53.040
<v Speaker 1>is you know, both of our stances is right. My

0:48:53.080 --> 0:48:55.120
<v Speaker 1>stand is right for helping you because I'm your friend

0:48:55.160 --> 0:48:56.719
<v Speaker 1>and I'm a man, and I'm like, you're not going

0:48:56.800 --> 0:48:58.840
<v Speaker 1>to jump on my friend because I have.

0:48:58.920 --> 0:49:01.879
<v Speaker 2>To contribute, take and I don't want to take more

0:49:01.880 --> 0:49:03.280
<v Speaker 2>than I contributed to the situation.

0:49:03.920 --> 0:49:09.799
<v Speaker 1>But what if you're not wrong? What if it's just

0:49:09.880 --> 0:49:10.839
<v Speaker 1>kick pete as day?

0:49:11.160 --> 0:49:13.959
<v Speaker 2>If that's what I said, then then what's right should

0:49:14.000 --> 0:49:14.359
<v Speaker 2>be done?

0:49:14.400 --> 0:49:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, then what's right as I jump in and

0:49:16.600 --> 0:49:18.880
<v Speaker 1>make sure that they don't get your.

0:49:18.719 --> 0:49:21.480
<v Speaker 2>Ass to that, right, that's that's the just thing at

0:49:21.480 --> 0:49:23.440
<v Speaker 2>that point. Yeah, that's the just thing because because then

0:49:23.520 --> 0:49:26.520
<v Speaker 2>because then they're the wrong doers. If I'm the wrong

0:49:26.600 --> 0:49:32.000
<v Speaker 2>doer and their justice, don't fight justice. If they're the

0:49:32.040 --> 0:49:39.680
<v Speaker 2>wrong doer and we're justice, we gotta fight them.
