My my brand was on 200 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: the line. And other time, how many goal albums you happen? 201 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: At this time, I think I had like four albums. 202 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: But just in the midst of that decision I had 203 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: to make a real, real executive decision on that uh 204 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 1: on that answer, And I said, you know what, now 205 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: I don't want to rent a house. I want you 206 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,679 Speaker 1: all to come to my house. And they don't have 207 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: no idea where the funk they was coming to? Now 208 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: where was this house? That this house was a stat 209 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 1: neller And see what happened with no no, it was 210 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: this was like a real estate project. I was doing 211 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 1: this ship. So this was like my first little real 212 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,839 Speaker 1: estate ship. I was like, I'm fixing, but I get 213 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: there staring and the because I had nowhere to go 214 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: true story and ship. Yeah yeah, I end up living that. 215 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: I didn't know where to go. So so these motherfuckers 216 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: showed up like a half hour early, trying to be 217 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: all cocky and ship at my door, you know, half 218 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: hour early, and they they came in my ship. It 219 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: was like, damn, this is where you're staying there for real. 220 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, this is where we're shooting that 221 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: for real. What what do you? What do you? What 222 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: do your stance on a culture vot? I never really 223 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: thought about I hate the word throwing around a lot, 224 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: but I never really gave it thought or what it 225 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: meant or this and that. Truthfully, you know what I mean. 226 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 1: There's so many people have different definitions for it. Um. 227 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't really look at it or say 228 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: this person is a part of stealing the culture or 229 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: doing this to the culture, this and that. To me, 230 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: if the culture it's a match culture right now. So 231 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: in order for rap or hip hop to grow and 232 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: had to grow outside of it's a media base right, 233 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: and for it to get that big, it's now all inclusive. Right, 234 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: there's skating, basketball, this sock like everybody listens to the music. 235 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: That's why I grew so big. So to me, it's 236 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: just mash culture right now. So if somebody's taking advantage, 237 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a color thing. It could be 238 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: a black person or white person. If that's the case. 239 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 1: To say, if they're a culture vote, you're not. Yeah, 240 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: that's true. What do you what do you think about 241 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: that word? I mean, I agree with what you're saying. 242 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: I think it's just complicated, like it's just who determines 243 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: who is the cultural vote, right, because I mean you 244 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: have to go into that person history where they come from. 245 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: You don't know what their life entails that that makes 246 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: them a part of the culture or not. Right, that's true. 247 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: I mean it's true what you're thinking, or I have 248 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: no idea to tell you the truth. Because, um, if 249 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: a person comes from outside of our culture quote unquote, 250 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: and and it's just as dedicated as me, then I 251 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: gotta I gotta show some love, like as a person 252 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: kind of made me. You know, I don't want to 253 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: say because I don't want to like selfish myself out 254 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: and say like, well, if a person made me a 255 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 1: certain amount of money or put me in the position, 256 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: then you know, how could it be a coaching moot? 257 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: I just don't. I don't. I don't really get it. 258 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: I don't really know you know what I mean. So um, 259 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: I try to, but I'm trying to be enlightened, like 260 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: to even maybe maybe people have to differentiate business and culture. 261 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: That's where it gets money. Because if that's the case, 262 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: you you could be from you could be from reggae 263 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: thrown and coming and doing hip hop and that's desidered 264 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: you know, being a coaching vot. It's a gap, commercial gap, 265 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: but it's good, right is that the first like and 266 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: he said in it for us by us on the moat? 267 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: So it was that the first time like foodbull got 268 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: national recognition. We had already had a little bit of 269 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 1: national recognition because I think a couple of people of 270 00:16:54,960 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: warning on their videos videos um you said, odib Mr 271 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: Jones okay okay um who else method Man and a 272 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: couple of people already wanted brand Nubian. So so they 273 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: had already when they wore an ice cream video and 274 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: a lot of a couple of other things. And I 275 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: think l A Warden the Hey Love video, He's sitting 276 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: on the rock and queens. So when you first heard 277 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: hustling every day, I'm hustling every day. I'm hustling flattered, flattered, 278 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: and hot. You said that's hot, he said, okay, alright, cool, 279 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 1: flattering and flatter at the same time. So I don't 280 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:41,920 Speaker 1: really know how to feel about this thing that's dope. 281 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:43,880 Speaker 1: So I get on the phone.

Yo, we like 559 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 1: our old ship. You know, we agmatic niggas, you know 560 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. A little baby album right, But like 561 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 1: the young generation is xxax and like that. But we 562 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: should all be together. We could like one music a 563 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 1: different era music more than the other. But I I 564 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 1: love the young nigga's ship. It's not that God, it's 565 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:53,240 Speaker 1: not that I gotta interrupt you. I think the younger 566 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 1: dudes think that we're corny. I'm just the younger dudes 567 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,839 Speaker 1: think that we're corny because we don't funk with them 568 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: and we don't think they could spit or we don't 569 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 1: think that it's just a division and miss the fucking drink. 570 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: Chance is you could help funk with him. I think 571 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 1: there's a level of hip hop that does not belong 572 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 1: to hip hop and like subgenre type stuff. Well, just 573 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: you know what, I don't believe that. I don't believe 574 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 1: that a lot of the commercial hip hop that's on 575 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:34,840 Speaker 1: the radio is picked by the fans a certain label, 576 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: which is Tommy Boy Records, which I was signed to 577 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: at one point as well. And I've I've made how 578 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 1: I uh stand. I said, funk Tommy Boy. The niggas 579 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: just suck. It was very elegant. It was a very 580 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 1: elegant statement for what sports on myself. But when I 581 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 1: heard that, the fact that they wanted to take your 582 00:36:55,200 --> 00:37:02,399 Speaker 1: catalog and we distributed it at a rate of temper cent, 583 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 1: and that temper sent would be split between the three 584 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 1: of y'all, he presented an option, the option we spoke 585 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: about that we felt was unfavorable. It was either we 586 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: do this if we didn't respond at a certain time, 587 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: then he would resort back to original contracts, which was 588 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 1: contracts we signed from one. So we responded, We responded 589 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 1: and saying that, you know, we responded like we were 590 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: supposed Yeah, so it was supposed to then go from there, 591 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: but we didn't really get any communication going until the 592 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:42,839 Speaker 1: final hour. No one gave a shit about hip hop 593 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,799 Speaker 1: until they realized that hip hop was making money. When 594 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 1: we boycotted the Grammys, it was because you wanted to 595 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,800 Speaker 1: put it on television or you wanted to exploit it 596 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 1: on television, but you didn't want to show the category. 597 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: And I'm like, wait a minute, hip hop was all 598 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 1: to believe. I want to say this might have been 599 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 1: eight arguably the top three music genre in the world. 600 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 1: If you got nine country and Western categories that you're televising, 601 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 1: then you're gonna televise one of these hip hop categories 602 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,919 Speaker 1: because on the scale, it should be up there, every 603 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: hip hop category and should be up there based off 604 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: of the level of the music. And so for them 605 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: to kind of disrespect it, and this was at a 606 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,359 Speaker 1: point in time that you had radio and talk show 607 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 1: hosts that were blatantly saying hip hop is a fat 608 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 1: it's so together you boycotted the dam him? Did it 609 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 1: after you describe? We were just you know, we got together, 610 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 1: Salt and Pepper, everybody who was nominated, and we were 611 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 1: just like, we're not going. We're gonna go to all 612 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: of the functions and we're gonna talk about why we're 613 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 1: not going because they not only were we nominated, but 614 00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: they wanted me and Will to perform. So we were 615 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 1: like and understand at that time saying no, you don't 616 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: know if this is the kiss of death, Like, are 617 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: you in a position to say something that they're just 618 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:10,359 Speaker 1: gonna say? You know, but everybody kind of band together. Um, 619 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: and that's why, you know, hip hop has kind of 620 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 1: for a while kind of gotten to be a staple 621 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 1: in the grand I'm a fast forward.
