110
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: I mean by that is, man, you see you, you

Speaker 1: Barrymore doing yoga and now you're hosting the BT Awards,

113
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 1: coming from the extremes. You came from Tom about your

114
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: life and books and everything. But that's that's I understand.

115
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: I'm talking about it just the kind of like the

116
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 1: main screaming brace of Fat Joe. How do you know,

117
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: Fat Joe's pretty mainstream, you know what I'm saying. We'd

118
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: like to keep it black and brown all the time,

119
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 1: but the truth is white people that they love that

120
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 1: Joe too. They love what's love. They loved you, you

121
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: know they I'm one of the most recognizable faces of

122
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: hip hop globally, um anywhere, Like there's nothing you can

123
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 1: I can tell you. One time I went to Morocco

124
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: and I got in the thing and I want to

125
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: stereotipe nobody, but they just drove in the desert, kept

126
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 1: driving for like an hour. I said, oh shit, they

127
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: got me. The taliband the Taliban got me, I said.

128
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: I really thought I was getting kidnapped. And they just

129
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 1: kept riding into the desert. Riding into the desert. I

130
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 1: was like, it was numb, but camels and shit. I

131
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: was like, oh, fucking Taliban, right, I thought they got me.

132
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 1: They pull up into this hotel was like literally an

133
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: oasis in the middle of nowhere. Like two hours into

134
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: the desert, we go up in there. I'm like, oh,

135
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: this fly. I there was two white girls sun tanning

136
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: by the pool. The whole ship was empty. It was

137
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: two white girl. White girl turned around and I was like, oh,

138
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: that's Fat Joe hey and turned back around. I said,

139
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: damn you famous man. A white girl turned around and

140
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: she's like, oh, fat Joe, I want you this. I said,

141
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: damn you famous. You know what I'm saying. So, you know,

142
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 1: I've always been like a mainstream and behind the scenes.

143
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: You know, I'm a family man. I'm a great person.

144
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: People know me. We'd get along, you know. It's it's

145
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 1: you know, That's who I am realistically, you know what

146
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,320

147
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: it uplifting our people, but we really offer everybody. And

148
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,120

153
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: was that was that. They got really mad at me

154
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: with that story. Um, Daddy Yankee. First of all, it

155
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: was it was the first Drink Champs. And so people

156
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: ain't understand what a podcast is, but podcasting it's almost

157
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: like gossiping. But but if you say the truth and

158
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: you and you get the facts, then it is what

159
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: it is. But Daddy Yankee used to be up here

160
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: in the Bronx and he used to be running down

161
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:57,319
Speaker 1: on us like crazy. We had Jimmy's Bronze Cafe on Smash,

162
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: so he would be running down on us and he'd

163
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: be like, yo, yo, yo, you know what I'm saying,

164
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: Be like, yo, you the leader, You the lead. He

165
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 1: even following us everywhere. You watched the Big pun one

166
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 1: hundred percent video. When I first the first time I

167
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 1: went to Porto Rico, um out there. We went to

168
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico because I was scared to fly. So the

169
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: first time I went to Puerto Rico, he was with

170
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: us every second of the day. Look the man, you

171
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: know this before Reggae Jone blew up and so the

172
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 1: wild story I told that was crazy was that, you know,

173
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 1: I always liked this guy like I've always had loved

174
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: for him. And then when he put out his record

175
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 1: and he blew up the Gosselina, I was so happy

176
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: for him. From far away, I ain't see him. And

177
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 1: then lean back to number one in America, so they

178
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,959
Speaker 1: both coming up. And then I finally got to see

179
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 1: him in Madison Square Garden. And when I seen him,

180
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: I was so happy to see him. The man turned

181
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: around like he never met me in his life. Wow,

182
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: he turned around, was like acting like boom. I was like, no, why,

183
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: Like I can't believe this guy. Know this guy ten years,

184
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 1: I'm in every show, we got everything we did, you know,

185
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 1: it was it was a very big disappointment, you know

186
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So you know, every time I see him,

187
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 1: it's like cool but it's like, you know, yeah, yeah,

188
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: it's not the same. It's not you know what I'm saying.

189
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: We don't we don't condone that. And what's what's going

190
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,199
Speaker 1: on with with your accounting picking? Man? I wouldn't tell

191
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: you as my accounting picking because the b d Old accountants.

192
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: We're talking about the everybody's accounting. So it ain't just me.

193
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, they everybody's they're the biggest accountants.

194
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,959
Speaker 1: So what happens is us as creatives, you know, we

195
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: spent so much time. We're doing books, we're doing TV shows,

196
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 1: we're doing shows. We don't running businesses. We try and

197
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: take our creativity to another level. I mean, we think

198
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 1: we're supposed to trust these people. And so what I

199
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: could tell everybody out there, every athlete, it really mostly

200
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 1: because you're a businessman, you probably most like me. Watch it,

201
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 1: every athlete, every artist, don't trust them. Don't trust the

202
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 1: business manager, don't trust the accountants because we trust them

203
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 1: to keep our family safe. And the saddest thing is

204
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: when you turn around and you trust these people and

205
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,440
Speaker 1: you turn around and say, yo, these people stealing from

206
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 1: me Ponzi skim Like this is not a game. Like,

207
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 1: these people really stealing my money, taking fake credit cards

208
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,839
Speaker 1: under my wife's name, going to the ATM every day,

209
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: pulling out cash in the building they work in, and

210
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 1: you know, robbing up a baseball players and robbing like

211
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: David Ponzi skil they were paying. The way you protect

212
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: yourself is unfortunately you got to go to Oprah one

213
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: oh one watch all your money. There's no way around it.

214
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: Uned right now. The way since I caught this, you know,

215
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: I've been signing my own checks, confirming my own wires,

216
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 1: doing everything, and and it's crazy because it's a lot

217
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: more stressful. Big Rich is in on that too, and

218
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: I hate that. I hate to think about money the

219
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: way Fat Joe do it is. I just work, work, work, work, work,

220
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: and no I'm making money, y'all making money. I know

221
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: what this is. I know what this is. I don't

222
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 1: want to watch every single thing my wife buys, my

223
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 1: daughter buys. You know, I don't like that, right, that stress?

224
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 1: So we trust these people and turn around they robbing

225
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: us in every corner like it's incredible, and we try

226
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: to go to them. I never sued nobody in my life.

227
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: You know how many people robbed for me you know

228
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: how many people stole my songs and did lean back

229
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: a hundred, lean with it, rock with it? You know

230
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 1: everybody could have been sued like for all these you

231
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I never sued a person in

232
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 1: my life, but this was it. And and this is

233
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,319
Speaker 1: a wake up call, not just for Fat Joe because

234
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: BDEO did what they did. We talked to them members

235
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: like yo, look you're stealing like we're shown, and these

236
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: are the people you trust. That assistant was paying her

237
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 1: daughter's tuition. Come on like this out of control? How

238
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:11,719
Speaker 1: did you catch him? Um, it's embarrassing, It's embarrassing. Uh

239
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,079
Speaker 1: my crib. The mortgage company told me it's the same

240
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 1: ship that happened to me before I went to jail

241
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: for something I was asking. It's the same fucking play bro.

242
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:26,559
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable play they called me. Yeah, I thought it

243
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: was fun. I walked out like I'm making money. I

244
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: don't know if you understand that right, Like I'm on fire,

245
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:40,839
Speaker 1: like there's just no way, no, no, no, I am

246
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 1: being It's true. I'm not a motherfucking race car. I'm

247
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: getting it right. So when when the mortgage company called

248
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: me and they're like, hey, you're late on your payment.

249
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 1: I'm like, this impossible. It must be a mistake. So

250
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,199
Speaker 1: when they sent me this stuff that we missed payments,

251
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 1: we like, I'm like, I got a weird feeling in

252
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: my stomach and I said, damn, this feel like last time.

253
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: But I thought that ain't we smarter, ain't we more advanced?

254
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: And so I don't want to drop names, but the

255
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: biggest artists and ball players and everybody you know it's

256
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 1: signed to these to the same accountant B do So

257
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: I mean with tons of billionaires that I know got

258
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: their money there. So I'm like, no way, we can't

259
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: get robbed from the from And then we start looking

260
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: at we see this, we see this, we see this,

261
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: we see this, we see this, we see this. I'm like,

262
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 1: oh my god. Like and so what happens is listen

263
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: to artists. Listen from the young ones to the old ones.

264
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: Fat Joe's no dummy. If it happens to Fat Joe. Please,

265
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: this should be all out alert, not just BDEO. Everybody

266
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 1: who has an accountant in the game need to check

267
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: and get a forensic accounting to check your money because

268
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: these people start thinking your money's dare money. Like I

269
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: started thinking about the women, the women's at my daughter's

270
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 1: sweet sixteen, right, and I'm thinking about if she's a

271
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: real crook, what she is, Right, she's sitting down, She's

272
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 1: probably sitting there with her husband, like you would lead

273
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: this guy spending all our money in this party. You

274
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: lead this guy spend all our money in this party. Goddamn.

275
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 1: And it's so it's crazy because you're working to secure

276
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: your family and the people who are supposed to protect

277
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: you are robbing you. This the second time this happened

278
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: to me, Like, same play. See what happens to them now? Um, well,

279
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 1: we had to sue him, and we didn't want to

280
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: do it, but we suit him and say, hey, look

281
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 1: we're showing you ten fifteen different examples with proof that

282
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: your people are like we was. We was paying with

283
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: my credit card hundreds of thousands on baseball players. It's

284
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: a Ponzi skin Rob Peter didn't give the ball. We

285
00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: was paying other people's credit cards, right, like hundred thousand

286
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 1: and eighty thousand for baseball players I never met in

287
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: my life. Then we got some payments on my credit

288
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: card that baseball players. Now it was incredible, like This

289
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: is like a real this is a big problem. This

290
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: is this is and nobody you know, I'm no rat,

291
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, But principle, it's principle. You

292
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 1: cannot steal millions of dollars for me and think you

293
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: know we're not coming and I'm already paying you too

294
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: much money. When we started figuring out how much were

295
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: spaying them, you know, we went back because they ain't

296
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: been giving us. That's another thing. They ain't give us

297
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: our records. Well we figured out this. We have to

298
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: figure this all out of ourselves. Like they didn't give

299
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: us like you would think they'd be like, oh, you're

300
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: my partner. Maybe the employee stole. We want to help you.

301
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: It's been straight up like no help, no, you know nothing.

302
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: Oh they know, they know that she stole. But they

303
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: also know. But they messed up because I told them

304
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: I am the mouth of the South. Like you do

Speaker 1: Like you know you robbed me. Look we have the proof.

307
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 1: Why don't you just pay me back? Nah, sue us.

308
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 1: So the arrogancy of such a big company, They're like, nah,

309
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 1: I get it, sue us. Oh you don't fucked up now,

310
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:23,680
Speaker 1: because and I'm telling every artist, if it having a

311
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: fat Joe's no dummy. If it having a fat Joe

312
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:32,160
Speaker 1: is happening to you right now, right right now. If

313
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: you're not watching your accounts on your phone, if it's

314
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 1: just oh we got ten thousand, Oh we got too

315
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 1: Oh we just paid, you're playing yourself. Don't trust none

316
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: of them. Don't let them think that they're your friends.

317
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 1: They business managers. They know. I never got robbed by

318
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: a gun with it with a guy with a gun

319
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: in my life, a guy with a gun. I've never

320
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: been robbed by a guy with a gun. I've been

321
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 1: robbed by men and lady with suits on that smile

322
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 1: at me all the time. I act like they're good people.

323
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: Those are the people that robbed me every single time.

324
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:09,360
Speaker 1: I've never been robbed. Stick them up. Never. But I've

325
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 1: been robbed for millions and millions of dollars of these

326
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: people who think that they're smarter than us. But there's

327
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 1: something Uncle Dan always says. He said, what happens in

328
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: the wash comes out in the rest. So the last

329
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:25,120
Speaker 1: conversation I had with this employee, I say, yo, Vanessa,

330
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: you know if you stole, I'm gonna catch you. The

331
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 1: last words no no, I never, and everybody's responses always no, no,

332
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: no no. And so now they got me on highler.

333
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: Now I'm watching everything nine ten dollars. I'm watching everything smoking.

334
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: I have to reevaluate my business situations with everybody. So

335
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 1: now people who are really really trusted the word trust

336
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,640
Speaker 1: don't exist with me no more. When it comes to money,

337
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: I believe that if you leave somebody with too much time,

338
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 1: who knows that you're not watching your money correct. Unfortunately,

339
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,199
Speaker 1: the temptation is too big, and they still unless you

340
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: got a straight, die hard I don't steal person. So

341
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 1: I mean, this is what I figured out with this

342
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: because you know, we treat these people like family. We

343
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: welcome them in our homes. You know, we got the

344
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: watching your kids because we got pictures that their kids. Hey,

345
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: it's the first day at school. Meanwhile, I don't know

346
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: I'm paying for the daughters school, paying for school. Listen.

347
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 1: The first thing I do every morning when I wake

348
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: up is check all my accounts and credit cards. Very

349
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,640
Speaker 1: check your account? I do, I do? I check everything. Hey,

350
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 1: guess what's this? I've been checking my account boy, that

351
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:41,679
Speaker 1: thing is rising to the top. But you know, you know,

352
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,640
Speaker 1: you're got check on my accounts. But the only thing

353
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 1: is you're gonna watch with your daughter, spends with your wife,

354
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: spends all the time. You'll be like the baby. Now,

355
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest. I mean, they ain't stealing, you

356
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: know the boy. They know how to help themselves. Who

357
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 1: and they don't hear no type of like, Yo, we

358
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: gotta watch y' out, we gotta be nah. They don't

359
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:08,880
Speaker 1: know what that means all the way up, Yo, they

360
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 1: do not know what that means. Now, he was on

361
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: Charlemagne show and people took something that you said and

362
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: didn't understand it. They didn't understand you understood it. Those

363
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: people outside That's what's That's the way I explained it.

364
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 1: People inside the culture understand like that is the best

365
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: case scenario. Just take what I got lead me to

366
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 1: be all right, guys, So for me to simplify it

367
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: for people who have never been involved with crime, right

368
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: is I wanted to talking to y'all. I was talking

369
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: directly to the guys who's sticking people up and hopefully

370
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 1: we saved some lives. That's what I was trying to do.

371
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: And so for some reason you asked me what's my position?

372
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: I realized that as an OG in the game that's

373
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 1: been in the street, and the streets respect me. It's

374
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: my obligation now to talk to the youth and let

375
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 1: him know the truth. Now, people have been robbing people

376
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: before Christ. You get it. Cowboys and Indians. They're gonna rob.

377
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 1: If you got a guy who's starving out there, but

378
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 1: he's a tough guy and aggressive, he's gonna rob. So

379
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: there's nothing we could do about that job. There's gonna

380
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: be prostitution, there's gonna be somebody who's who they've been

381
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 1: before Christ. There's different jobs that we prefer people don't have,

382
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 1: but they're gonna have them, right, So he's gonna rob

383
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 1: right now if you rob. The point I was gonna

384
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: what I was trying to make was like, why you

385
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 1: gonna kill the man and take his life? It's the

386
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 1: only problem I got. Two days ago, I watched a

387
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 1: guy Robert Bodega right here and dow y'all. The man

388
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: was on his knees prying showed him the status like, Yo,

389
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: look look you forgot something one did in the refrigerator. Yeah,

390
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: there you go. He's God turned around, Bob shoots him

391
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 1: in the head. That's pure evil. And so listen, guys,

392
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 1: we are really I know people have been saying this, father,

393
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: but they've just been saying it. The Devil's in the streets.

394
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 1: The devil. Not bad people, not this the devil. The

395
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: devil is in the streets more than ever and alive.

396
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: Because my thing is when you rob somebody said your

397
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 1: ribs just touching, you're aggressive, you gotta eat. I know

398
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 1: they're gonna do that. They've been doing that. I have

399
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 1: done that, you see. So I speak from a position now.

400
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 1: If I would have went with Charlemagne on The Beautiful

401
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 1: Show and said you guys are they would have been like, Yo,

402
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: you're a hypocrite, bro. You were sticking dudes up in

403
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 1: the bronx. We know. So I had to keep it

404
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: real with the people I was talking to, right, but

405
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 1: never I work every day. I'm just told you a

406
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: situation where a guy would have suit is robbing me.

407
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 1: I don't want no one to get robbed. That was

408
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,239
Speaker 1: not the message. The messages like, hey, guys, I know

409
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: y'all fuck with me. Ya, don't kill bro, do me

410
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 1: a favor, man, Just rob them. You got go u

411
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: paw it make some money. I don't care, but leave

412
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 1: the man live. And so what happens is on rappers

413
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 1: are dying breed. I'm not lying to you like rappers

414
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 1: can't even go nowhere no more. It's not even comfortable

415
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 1: to leave your house. I used to look at Calor

416
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: and be like, yo, it's something wrong with you. I swear,

417
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,400
Speaker 1: are you depressed? You never known it's bad out there?

418
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 1: You know I'm chilling, And now I find myself like that.

419
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 1: I'm in my crib and I'm just like, yo, you know,

420
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 1: and I'm a I'm the guy you see on every

421
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 1: corner and haul them the Bronx talking to everybody like

422
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, now you got me in the crib like

423
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 1: and it's crazy because look at what's happening, and they're

424
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 1: killing all of you. They're killing the one after the other,

425
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,360
Speaker 1: the pop smoke, the p and B that, this one,

426
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,159
Speaker 1: the nipsey that this this that like. And so my

427
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,719
Speaker 1: problem is why we have so much self hate now,

428
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 1: Charlotte Mane, you know, I get beef all the time.

429
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 1: It's a it is truly a form of colorism where

430
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: people look at me be like we understand what he's saying,

431
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 1: but we don't like how he's not the right look

432
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 1: for the message. The people feel like that, like why

433
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: is he talking that real? He ain't, you know, but listen,

434
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 1: nobody else gonna talk it. I want to know whatever

435
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: OG is trying to talk to you about real issues

436
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 1: in life. And it puts me in a bull's eye.

437
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: It puts me in harm's way when I'm talking to

438
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: all this realness. You get what I'm saying. But I

439
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 1: do that because I want my life. You see this book,

440
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: the Book of Jose. Book of Jose is a transparency book.

441
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 1: This book right here. If you're going through a dark

442
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 1: time in your life, you read this book, you're gonna

443
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: be able to smile. You're gonna be like, how is

444
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: this guy who got bullied? You see that face, that

445
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: face in a tough face, that faces I got my

446
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: ass whipped every day by twenty guys. You're looking at

447
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 1: a guy who was getting his ass whooped every day,

448
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 1: was still able to smile. Guess what, the community we

449
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: raised two million dollars for for the burning victims, those

450
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 1: the guys used to bust my ass, and we still

451
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 1: raised two million dollars for him. This is the place

452
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,119
Speaker 1: I was bullied. It's the neighborhood you can go. You

453
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,080

00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 1: if I'm sising you, if you're my sis, if you're

Speaker 1: the tina when I see you, Sis, I love you, Sis.

477
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 1: No matter how much I love a person, I cannot

478
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 1: sit there and watch this man disrespect my sister that

479
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 1: I called my sister every day. I feel like a

480
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 1: sucker if I don't address it. Now, I've been so

481
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 1: used to ig and cameras being in my face. Maybe

482
00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: was that the right platform, or maybe it was a

483
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: private court. Don't know, it's done already, you know what

484
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But Earth, God's correct. I'm not his friend.

485
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 1: I love him, he's my brother. He helped me at

486
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 1: a time when nobody wanted to help me. Now I'll

487
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 1: never forget that, you know what I'm saying. So it's

488
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 1: not I don't want to cause harm to him, have

489
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:18,959
Speaker 1: people look at him a different way. But I was

490
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: watching it and it just made me feel crazy, like

491
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, And I was just like, yo,

492
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,719
Speaker 1: you know what, you know? I addressed it and you

493
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,439
Speaker 1: know I moved on. You know what I'm saying. I

494
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: love Earth. You know what I'm saying. He did a

495
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: lot for me and my family. So I'm never gonna

496
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: be one of those guys to see a shanty after

497
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: that and do things with her, knowing that you didn't

498
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 1: defend and say what you thought was right. We're not

499
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,439
Speaker 1: even saying that. I'm trying to tell you she's my sister.

500
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 1: And so what you gotta understand is, girls I called

501
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: my sister, they feel so protected because I don't give

502
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 1: you per vibes. I never gave you a purse. I'm

503
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: not that type. But he gonna have fun. You know,

504
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 1: people think Fat Joe got the Terror squad. I'm really

505
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 1: protected by women because I respect them so much, and

506
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 1: they stand you see your boys. Still, She'll stand right

507
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: in front of me. They'll stand right in front me,

508
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 1: create a wall right in front of me. Why because

509
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 1: I never disrespect my sisters. I love them all. I

510
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 1: showed him the same love. So that was all about

511
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 1: me me. You know. So when Chris, Chris, one of

512
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: my best friends on Earth, when he approached me, I say, yo, bro,

513
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 1: that's my sister. Bro. Yeah, but you know they're real

514
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 1: type family. So Earth feels a way, Chris feels a

515
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: same way. That's how they get down. That's the family

516
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 1: that you don't want to be in the projects with

517
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 1: them because you gotta fight all seven brothers. You beat one,

518
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 1: you gotta fight the other one, the other one. You

519
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 1: know they like this then you but you know I've

520
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: seen them two times since then yesterday I've seen me

521
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: had a bigger smile. Love you brother, you know. So

522
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: this is it's gonna time, is gonna do what he's

523
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 1: gotta do. But me personally, I want everybody to know

524
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 1: because you know what happens in hip hop. I'm too

525
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 1: old now, I'm not a young kids. You can't scam

526
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: me and joke. So what happens is when I say that,

527
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: all the earth hated start calling, and boy, I didn't

528
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 1: know it was that many you know rappers and a go.

00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: my brother. Like no, no, no, no, I don't want that.

531
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:32,160

532
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:35,680

00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: my brother. I love him. You know what I'm saying

534
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: That's how I feel about the the N word conversation.

535
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 1: It feels like every few years is uh, fat Joe

536
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 1: can't use the N word, and I'm like, well, fat Joe.

537
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 1: They've been saying that since the nineties, Like why don't

538
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 1: in the book not fuck the nineties. I was born

539
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 1: first of all, my mother. First of all. My projects

540
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: is ninety percent. I'll give you eighty percent black. Still

541
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: my grandmother's projects is ninety nine point nine black. Be clear.

542
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 1: So I'm Spanish. I knew I was Latino, but the

543
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:12,479
Speaker 1: whole time I thought I was black. Anyway, So my

544
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: mom's lived there forty years before I was born in

545
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: this project, and I'm born blonde hair, green eyes. She

546
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 1: brings me shit crazy, right, she brings me there. The

547
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 1: first thing they go, look oh look at this little

548
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,880

00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: the guys from the building, it's like, yo, look at

550
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 1: that little nigga Joe, a little fat Joe with just

551
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:36,960
Speaker 1: so all. I knew my whole life before even the

552
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: elementary then high school, did junior high just and so

553
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: it's a lot of all woke society or something going

554
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: on these days, and Twitter and all that that. Um,

555
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 1: I guess they don't understand where I come from, where

556
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 1: I was born, or how I was raised, or how

557
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: I lived my whole entire life. Now we know that

558
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 1: we use it as love, but we know that the record,

559
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: the record states that this is a negative word that

560
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 1: I wish we never used it saying. You know, And

561
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: I try my best to try to like, but you know,

562
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: Fat Joe knows his green eyes. I've been saying this

563
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 1: thing in my DNA. It's hard, bro, I really, seriously,

564
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: I've been trying to stop, you know what I'm saying,

565
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 1: but I've been saying this since I was born. Yeah,

566
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 1: so I tried the greatest level I can to try

567
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: to understand. If I'm offending anybody, that's cool, But I

568
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 1: want them to know. No one's gonna pressure Fat Joe

569
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 1: into feeling or saying anything that he loves or he

570
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: believes in. No one's ever gonna do that. You get

571
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 1: one life, and ain't nobody gonna try to tell me

572
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 1: what to say, tell me what to do, tell me

573
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 1: what the thing I mean? Do I look like a racist?

574
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 1: Do I look like I mean being what's the N word?

575
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: If somebody's really upset with me saying the N word.

576
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: What are you saying? I'm a racist? Saying it as

577
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 1: the conversation is always confusing to me because I thought

578
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 1: that was I thought in New York that was the

579
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 1: thing you don't say. I didn't know. I really have

580
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 1: to stop using that word though, like we tried, maybe

581
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: coming around my friends, but I really do try. You know,

582
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 1: even if I gave me the biggest speech in the

583
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 1: world about not using it, but two seconds later he

584
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 1: said it three times like Spanish, we gotta watch it, Dad.

585
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: You know it's not okay. Brother, He gave us a

586
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 1: speech right two seconds later he said it three times.

587
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 1: It's it. That's that's what it is. And if fat

588
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 1: Joe Hallelujah safe fat Joe is able to get brain

589
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: washed or you know, because your mind's a computer. I

590
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 1: don't know if you know that. We've been stored for years,

591
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 1: so it's so hard to erase the computer, right, and

592
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: so um, it's like say fact Joe, never say it again.

593
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,959
Speaker 1: They're still saying it. You're gonna still say it, so

594
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 1: I don't it don't end and stop with fat Joe.

595
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 1: Women bitches too, that's you know now, it's the same.

596
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: It's the same conundry. But I'm saying I'm watching the

597
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 1: BT Awards and Treata said, I'm the baddest bitch saying

598
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: who you calling it? That's why I try. That's the

599
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 1: word I don't, right, So I've been but I tried

600
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:36,520
Speaker 1: so hard to uh not say it. You know, but

601
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: what are you gonna say? When the girls say she

602
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: says it, it's kind of a woman trying to take

603
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 1: the power out of that word with each other. And

604
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: so that's really what when every sensitive you need to

605
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: judge a person by who their character truly is. Oh,

606
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 1: you know who they really are, who they represent? You know,

607
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 1: it's kind Joe. Let me let me, let me be

608
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: clear this Fat Joe's for black and Latino people. And

609
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 1: so when you go Big Punch's first song onboard, equam

610
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 1: now is meaning black and Latino people. Fat Joe. When

611
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:15,840
Speaker 1: he gives out food in the community, he gives it

612
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 1: to black and Latino people. When Fat Joe opens his

613
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,879
Speaker 1: school in his store, he has black and Latino kids there.

614
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 1: When he opens anything, it's always for both equally. That's

615
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 1: just who I am as a person, you know, that's

616
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 1: just who I am. So you gotta judge a person

617
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: by not by the hand word, by to this, by

618
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 1: to that. I don't even know what these people. I

619
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 1: really don't know. Like I don't think you guys understand.

620
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 1: When farec conty you want the headline. When fire Can

627
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,600

00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,840
Speaker 1: whole career. I've been a mutt. You know what I'm saying.

630
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 1: It's it's the weirdest thing. But you know, I've been

631
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 1: able to navigate through it, you know what I'm saying,

00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 1: And I'm happy with you know who I am as

634
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 1: Don't you think sometimes you find yourself in arguments with

635
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 1: kids that just might not know any better, Like even

636
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,680

Speaker 1: gotta sit them down. Maybe they don't know. You know,

646
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 1: it's a fact what I'm saying, like a fact though

647
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 1: this is a billion percent. Hip hop's fifty years old. Okay,

648
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 1: it's turning fifty years old. It was black and Latino.

649
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: What the hell on earth you want me to tell you?

650
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 1: I didn't say nothing. Is this a dia pepsi? I said,

651
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 1: you know that, Joe. This is now I'm saying, this

652
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 1: is no controversy. This is like, Yo, do you take

653
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:41,959
Speaker 1: cocade in the morning? Like yeah, yeah, you know black

654
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: that all of a sudden. But what happens is that

655
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:50,439
Speaker 1: gotta you gotta understand and I have an obligation being

656
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: a true culture, pop culture. Not only that, we always

657
00:36:55,560 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: been multi racial, you know, and just hey one there

658
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,960
Speaker 1: was Asians, it was white people. There there was this

659
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 1: and they all. We always taught it. You Blondie did

660
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 1: one of the first rappers. We was always taught hip

661
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 1: hop culture is almost like a religion, no matter where

662
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: are you from, no matter why. If you love this thing,

663
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 1: if you went there breakdancing, you love this thing. You

664
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 1: the culture. So now a lot of these people that

665
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 1: are on Twitter and stuff like that, no disrespect because

666
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 1: I don't like the alien alienate nobody, but they're from

667
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 1: different places that ain't New York and the Bronx where

668
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 1: it was created. There was no social media, there was nothing.

669
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 1: The first hip hop photographer is Joe Conzo, a Puerto

670
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:42,720
Speaker 1: Rican brother who took We would not have any documentary.

671
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 1: You ever seen Supreme Team, You would not have no

672
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 1: footage if it wasn't for Joe Conzo. You have to know,

673
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:53,279
Speaker 1: he's the first hip photographer, right, and so we have

674
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 1: these beautiful images of day one. When you look at

675
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,879
Speaker 1: the pictures, it's black and Latino. I'm not making this up.

676
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,360
Speaker 1: This is what it is, right, But it just seems

677
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 1: like you got people who are now I get it.

678
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 1: Terrible things, terrible things, not even terrible things, phenomenal or tractional.

679
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 1: There is no way to explain I'm black, bro, that

680
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 1: Joe is black. I hate slavery, I hate oppression, I

681
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 1: hate systemic racism. If this is what you gotta ask yourself, everybody,

682
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 1: pro whatever, if you see a black woman getting harm

683
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 1: on the corner, are you willing to die for? Because

684
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 1: I am. I know I am. Read the book, I

685
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,840
Speaker 1: know I am. I'm a frontliner. I'm not a talker

686
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 1: on Twitter. I'm about that life, right. So I turned

687
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:44,120
Speaker 1: around and I go like this, I say like this,

688
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 1: so you know I'm I get it. We should under

689
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:52,360
Speaker 1: understand the pain, what happened. Don't take it out on me,

690
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:54,879
Speaker 1: Like I don't got shit to do with this. I

691
00:38:54,920 --> 00:39:00,879
Speaker 1: was born in the projects, unwelfare, paying for ship with coupons,

692
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:06,399
Speaker 1: bummy schools, terrible health system this, you know. I had

00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: teach you that you can lose weight and get rid

699
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:28,840
Speaker 1: of diabetes. I'm thinking, oh, I got this ship for life. No,

00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:32,319
Speaker 1: like I'm under the same as oppressure. I got my

703
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 1: in the dumpster upside down head first by the police?

704
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:53,200
Speaker 1: Will I have you know? You talk about ass whipping,

705
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 1: you talk about police brutality. Whoa we gonna make a

706
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 1: book on that? Like you know my ass? What gods

707
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:03,919
Speaker 1: was getting away with anything they wanted in the world.

708
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,800
Speaker 1: It was no camera phone, So the youth, if you're listening,

709
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: there were no cell phones at one time, there were

710
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: no camera phones. There was nothing. You just got your

711
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 1: ass what every day? Right? And if you was in

712
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 1: trouble like me, because I think I'm I'm guilty. I

713
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 1: should have got twenty five percent of the ass weapons

714
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: I should have gotten. I'm gonna be honest with you,

715
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:28,920
Speaker 1: maybe even thirty right, but the type of abuse, so

716
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: you know you can't. That's why I was a blessing

717
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 1: when the Rodney King tab happened, because people finally got

718
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: to see it. They knew what was going on. Man,

719
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: it's so it's like, you know, you know, it's like,

720
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:45,400
Speaker 1: it's terrible what has happened to black and Latino people.

721
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:49,200
Speaker 1: And so when you go to the what you call that,

722
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 1: some are soul s Porto Ricans in there. When you

723
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 1: go to the movie or the Chicago guy that got murdered,

724
00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:01,919
Speaker 1: the black panther, Oh Fred Hampton, um black Jesus's Puerto

725
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:05,759
Speaker 1: Ricans in the um. You know, it's Puerto Ricans in

726
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: that absolute you know, they was with the Puerto Ricans.

727
00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,840
Speaker 1: When you come over here to all the black panthers

728
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:12,839
Speaker 1: in the young, it was Puerto Ricans in there. So

729
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: and that whole civil rights we've never been. Look, that's

730
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 1: why the minister always says black, brown and indigenous people.

731
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 1: The way they look correct, the way they look at

732
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: this is we all the same until we realize that

733
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 1: we're all the same. And this is what I was saying,

734
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:31,319
Speaker 1: in your in your in your thing. And so it's

735
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 1: not disrestracting no way that some people beat us to

736
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:40,600
Speaker 1: the punch. But people want to why Jewish people get

737
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 1: what they want, Well, you know why they get what

738
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:46,400
Speaker 1: they want is they all get together ten thousand deepness

739
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 1: that we're voting for mister Washington, and mister Washington knows

740
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 1: if he wants to be councilman, he got to take

741
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,760
Speaker 1: care of that community. Right. So there's a divided conquer

742
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 1: between the Latinos and Blacks. To them, you ain't the same.

743
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 1: Imagine we all voted the same representative. Black lives matter,

744
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 1: Latino matter. Something went over here. We all together like this.

745
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 1: The numbers is so strong that we will get whatever

746
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:17,920
Speaker 1: we want in our hoods, new schools, better hospitals, better

747
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 1: assistance for our single parent mothers. But they let people

748
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:26,280
Speaker 1: separate them. You know, Fat Joe's a really he's a problem.

749
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:30,160
Speaker 1: Fat Joe been working on this his whole life, bringing

750
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 1: Latinos and Blacks to think like this and bringing them together.

751
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:37,240
Speaker 1: That's why you know I'm hosting the BT Awards, Yes,

752
