70
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:41,360

71
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,760

72
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 4: to Atlanta?

73
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 7: Well, from what I hear in Atlanta. I think the

74
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 7: ratio makes it where.

75
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 4: Like objection, here's.

76
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 7: I just hear a lot about that ratio.

77
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 6: And how kind of you know, the guy's got a

78
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 6: lot going on, you got it's it's a lot down there.

79
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 6: And you know, everybody wants to deal with successful and

80
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,520

00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 6: and fifty people and don't want to settle with one

82
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 6: like that, they that they never gets nowhere long as.

Speaker 7: Yeah not that funny.

90
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I think that I think I think that

91
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 4: I think it's somebody down there. And because it's probably

92
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 4: a dude down there right now, like man, all these

93
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,599
Speaker 4: girls want the same thing, and you know, everybody want

94
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 4: to be seen with somebody in Cardier glasses. And happened.

95
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: I have made back what's wrong with Cardier class.

96
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 4: I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying, but

97
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 4: you know, but that's the kind of guy. She's saying

98
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 4: she's trying to avoid.

99
00:04:58,440 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: She's trying to avoid me a little bit.

100
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 6: It's just I think it's it's just certain. I think

101
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 6: the lifestyle in Atlanta, although it's really really fun, you

102
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,359
Speaker 6: have a good time, I think that kind of plays

103
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 6: a part of it too. It's like eventually we get

104
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 6: like and I'm outside, go outside, I'm around, but you

105
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 6: get tired of like every single time we go out,

106
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 6: we got to be in the club, we gotta.

107
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 7: Be with the hookah and.

108
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 4: Every weekend.

00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,559
Speaker 6: No I don't not every weekend if I'm dating somebody,

110
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 6: I want to do things other than that. And a

111
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 6: lot of the people that this is another conversation the

112
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 6: group chat. A lot of my homegirls feel like in Atlanta,

113
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 6: that's all the days are. And it's fun in the beginning,

114
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 6: but then you want to really dig.

115
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 1: But you got to always go to the club and

116
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: do hookah.

117
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 9: Now you can go to ether Ridge, you can go

118
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 9: on banks.

119
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 6: Around the wrong guys because the people that's coming through

120
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,000

126
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,400

140
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,080

Speaker 10: that we had TikTok, yeah saying put out TikTok, and

142
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,160

206
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,280

207
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 10: actually seek something better, you know what I mean. So

208
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 10: when I took myself to rehab out in LA, did

209
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 10: a couple of months out there, and it was cool,

210
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying. I got back out and

211
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 10: I was still tempted to live that kind of life,

212
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 10: but I saw what was in front of me and

213
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 10: I was like, this is more valuable than what's behind me.

214
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: What what gave you the courage?

215
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 2: I would say to to be able to talk about

216
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 2: it right, because you know, some people look about it

217
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 2: as it's embarrassing, and then some people say, you know,

218
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 2: it could actually help people that's going through the same thing.

219
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: That you're actually going through or that you dealt with,

220
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 1: you know, I.

221
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 10: Mean with the support team. You feel what I'm saying.

222
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 10: Because the first time it happened, we had like an

223
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 10: intervention and he came.

224
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 3: On over those first time I intervention looks like, well.

225
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,199
Speaker 1: He came up with an a pummer like bro delicate

226
00:10:59,320 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 1: right now.

227
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 10: But I mean like the love I got in the

228
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 10: support I got, it made me feel safe. It made

229
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 10: me feel safe, and you know what I'm saying. Of

230
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 10: course I do feel ashamed. You know what I'm saying.

231
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 10: At first, you know what I mean.

232
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 3: It's a disease.

233
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 10: But because like we from, you don't supposed to let

234
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:19,480

00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying.

237
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 10: Once you find yourself in that position and your brother

238
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 10: called you out on it, you be hoping that you

239
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 10: can get rid of it before he come and check me.

240
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: But when he comes check me on it, I.

241
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 10: Get mad at myself and be like, damn, I supposed

242
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 10: to got straight before you know what I mean, my

243
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 10: manager would come or if he would come, You feel

244
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 10: what I'm saying.

245
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: So it was it was.

246
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 4: Now The thing about it is, you know what I'm saying.

247
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 4: And we've had this conversation before, Like as long as

248
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 4: he was battling this addiction, long as he was on drug,

249
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 4: I never actually saw him do drug. I never saw it,

250
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 4: like you know what I'm saying. So whatever he would

251
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 4: do it, he'd do it. And I don't know whether

252
00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 4: he would have while he was around me or not,

253
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 4: but I was. But what I'm saying, there went like

254
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 4: while we was around each other, it was still this

255
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,760

00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 10: You feel what I'm saying. So when it when it happened,

316
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 10: I felt like I felt like now I'm obligated to

317
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 10: tell my story and so it can help somebody that's

318
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 10: in you know, that's fighting addiction.

319
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. We just lost a now

320
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: the legend.

321
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, and and for me to be that

322
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 10: made it through, I think that, you know, I should

323
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 10: use this platform that I have, you know that, And

324
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 10: he shares with me.

325
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 4: And then and then it was also after we lost

326
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 4: our part uh our pon the peanut done peanut the

327
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 4: done done like he died the same way. You know

328
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 4: what I'm saying. But it's a calling on this man life.

329
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 4: So when you say, why is he sharing it. I

330
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 4: don't think he has a choice. I feel like he

331
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 4: was kind of positioned to survive all the stuff that

332
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 4: he survived and to have the effortless connection with community.

333
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. If you go anywhere in Atlanta,

334
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 4: you gonna see Droe Couds. I don't give a damn

335
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 4: where you go, what part of the city you in,

336
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 4: you go see somebody who related to Yo Joe, and

337
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 4: he didn't been there every high school in the city.

338
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 4: He know everybody, and you know, to have that community tie.

339
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 4: But then have his testimony that you can share with

340
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 4: these people, and you know what I'm saying, to inspire

341
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 4: and uplift like that's that's special, you know what I mean?

342
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 5: Like dro do give you give rich pastor energy, rich pastor.

343
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 3: That's why to thank God record makes so much sense

344
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 3: to me when I hear it.

345
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, I feel like I feel like I have, uh,

346
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 10: you know, the ability to give a ministry not a minister,

347
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 10: you know what I mean, Like you know, like to

348
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 10: you know, being growing up in the church and stuff

349
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 10: like that. You know, I just came back to that,

350
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 10: you know what I mean. But you know this right

351
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 10: here was a blessing man, and you know, Tip called

352
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 10: and was like, hey, I think you should start to

353
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 10: tell because I did a lot of interviews in it

354
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 10: in the beginning, and I didn't want to say it,

355
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 10: you know what I mean, But I said it on

356
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 10: this track, and I thought that I should should said

357
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 10: to God first, you feel what I'm saying.

358
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 4: And on that platform, that was the first time you

359
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 4: really made it. Now people knew that you was you

360
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 4: was clean, but they didn't know like what I didn't know?

361
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, just like the question you asked, what made you?

362
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 10: And I used to always be it around it and

363
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 10: I was like, well, I ain't ready to say it yet,

364
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 10: you know what I mean. But when he came along

365
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 10: and said I think you should start telling it, I was.

366
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: Like, what better way you feel?

367
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,439
Speaker 6: How did you feel after you're in the studio and

368
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 6: you finally said it's on the record, Like did you

369
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 6: feel weight lifted off of you? Or did you were

370
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 6: you anxious about how people would respond to knowing exactly

371
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 6: what happened?

372
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 10: Or I felt like a weight lifted off of me

373
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 10: because of where we recorded at with with Kurk Franklin

374
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,160
Speaker 10: overdosed in that studio, So I think that where God

375
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 10: where I broke myself at God built me right.

376
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 7: Back up or do I just ended up?

377
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 1: I just put it. It just just happened that way,

378
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying.

379
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:41,639
Speaker 10: And I was shamed to go back to the studio,

380
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 10: and I was, and I was, you know, I was

381
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 10: talking to Guy, was like, I don't want to go back,

382
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 10: and he was.

383
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: Like, go back in there and watch what I do.

384
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.

385
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 3: So you knew you was going to record this record,

386
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 3: but you you didn't even know? Wow, wow wow wow.

387
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 4: Well he was actually at the studio for something. I

388
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,479
Speaker 4: think he was working on the ps C L So

389
00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 4: he was in the studio for something. Mal uh And

390
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 4: then I was just like hey, uh Kurt, Kurt on

391
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 4: the way You're like what now I'm Finela do mine?

00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 10: Now?

393
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 4: I'm Finela going you know what I'm saying. So he

394
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 4: went on and laid Ladies Lady versed down right then

395
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 4: that day. But it was definitely ordained.

396
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 10: Initially, I was ashamed to go back to the studio

397
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 10: because everybody was there, you.

398
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 1: Feel what I'm saying.

399
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 10: So so so when we started working on the psc album,

400
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 10: I just was like, you know what I'm.

401
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 4: Saying, something he never even told me. I didn't even know.

402
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: I didn't.

403
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 10: I wasn't cool with coming back in there. You feel

404
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 10: me after I'm been laid all out on the floor,

405
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying. But once I, once I

406
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 10: got the opportunity, I just swallowed that, took that walk

407
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 10: of shame, went back in there and recorded, not knowing

408
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 10: that God was going to rebuild me and give me

409
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 10: a platform to actually share with people what happened.

410
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,959
Speaker 1: To me right there and you know, get the glory

411
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 1: out of it. You did? You know what I'm saying.

412
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 3: Did you hear God in that moment?

413
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: Did you like that I heard him in that moment?

414
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 4: Wow?

415
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 1: Yeah?

416
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,640
Speaker 2: I was gonna ask you, did you deal with why

417
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 2: you needed or why you thought you needed those pills?

418
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 2: Was it upset? Was it I wanted to turn up?

419
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 4: Was?

420
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 2: Did you you needed it to make a record? Did

421
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 2: you deal with.

422
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: That part of it?

423
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 2: Because that's the part that scared me with any artist,

424
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 2: because it's like you take it feeling like it's gonna

425
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 2: take you to someplace else, and it's like, well, what

426
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 2: made you feel like I had to take that pill to.

427
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 10: It started out with like just having fun, you know,

428
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 10: in the hood again high, but then it made me

429
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 10: feel like.

430
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: I needed it to make good music, you know what

431
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: I'm saying.

432
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 10: And actually it just stimulated and I used to just

433
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 10: write crazy and then it got to the point where

434
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,119
Speaker 10: like it became an addiction. So that went out the window.

435
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 10: Music went out the window. And then I was like, oh,

436
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 10: well I needed to you know, do this and do that,

437
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying. Plus from trauma, you know

438
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 10: what I'm saying. Things happened to me when I was younger,

439
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 10: you know what I mean, being shot and introduced to

440
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 10: dem role and addicted to that in the hospital, and

441
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 10: you know from from the from the way I got

442
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 10: whoopings as a child. That that trauma. You know what

443
00:19:58,960 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 10: I'm saying.

444
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 5: Well, we don't talk about that, yeah, Lord, traumble discipline,

445
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 5: that's not.

446
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 4: I can't speak on that.

447
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 10: I can speak on I got and stuff. We was

448
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 10: tied up and beat like but but not like. But

449
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 10: to be honest with you, my family, like we we

450
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 10: thought my mama had five boys, so it was hard

451
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 10: to discipline five boys.

452
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 7: On her own youngest, oldest, middle, I'm.

453
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,120
Speaker 10: Right after the oldest, you know what I mean. So

454
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 10: when she laid the belt down, and it was necessary

455
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 10: because right all of us are living today, none of

456
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 10: us are really like that bad of people. But and

457
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 10: she did the best. But when you whipping like that,

458
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 10: you have to be careful about how you do it.

459
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 10: And now it's cool to whoop your child, you know,

460
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 10: and discipline them, but if you're gonna beat the ship

461
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 10: out of them, then you might as well get ready

462
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 10: for something in them that you don't know about. You

463
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 10: know what I mean, because now that I'm older, she's

464
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 10: probably surprised that when she hears this, you feel what

465
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:02,120
Speaker 10: I'm saying.

466
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 2: How does that affect you with your kids? How you

467
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 2: discipline your kids?

468
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 10: I see, I've recognized it, and I'm not gonna do

469
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,920

497
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,479
Speaker 10: I was seventeen eighteen. You feel me, and it just

498
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,919
Speaker 10: played back, and it's the generational generational curse that like

499
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,360
Speaker 10: how my father was My father picked it up at

500
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 10: that age and he did it for fifty years, you

501
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 10: feel me. Then I picked it up and then I

502
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 10: lived that way then my little girl and I was

503
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 10: thinking about it and all of this happened before I

504
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 10: went to rehab. Overdose, this and all of that, you

505
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 10: feel what I'm saying. So when she did it, I

506
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 10: looked at gard and it was just like he had

507
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 10: just revealed himself, like, Hey, I'm here now, it's time

508
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 10: to start grabbing this by the reins, you know what

509
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 10: I'm saying.

510
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,199
Speaker 1: So when that happened, I was in rehab while she

511
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: was out. We're supposed to went together to get the help.

512
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:57,160
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

513
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,919
Speaker 10: And she wasn't ready, but I had to go ahead

514
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,640
Speaker 10: of her to be an example, you know. And she's

515
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 10: I actually broke this curse in my family.

516
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 1: Because that's what she's good.

517
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 4: Man.

00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 10: She's working at the hospital and we talk all the time.

519
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 10: She she's doing great. Man, She's clean.

520
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,199
Speaker 6: You have the It takes a village foundation that you

521
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 6: do where you're in the schools talking to the kids.

522
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,959
Speaker 6: When you're talking to the kids, like what are you

523
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 6: dissecting from your story to because some of the kids

524
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,679
Speaker 6: I saw in these videos are really young. So what

525
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 6: are the main issues you're seeing with the kids, and

526
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 6: how do you take your story and kind of mentor

527
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 6: them up a bit.

528
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 10: So what we do is it still takes the village.

529
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,399
Speaker 10: We're in the communities, and then the schools and then

530
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 10: the homes, and we do like interventions and I use

531
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 10: what I've been through. And then my manager to doctor

532
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 10: Sierra l she is like she's been in LPC for

533
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,960

534
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 1: You feel what I'm saying.

535
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 10: So when we when we come in and when we

536
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 10: come into a situation, like I try to I try

537
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,360
Speaker 10: to bring street park into it. You feel what I'm

538
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 10: saying and let people know you know what to do

539
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 10: when you're like conflict resolution, if you're out in the

540
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,159
Speaker 10: street and you feel like you don't want to be

541
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 10: no lame and this and that. But sometimes they diagnose

542
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 10: these young kids with things that that's not wrong with them.

543
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 10: You feel me. They been like, oh, he bipolar or

544
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 10: he mad at you know, But the only thing is

545
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 10: he probably be mad at his dad because he wasn't

546
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 10: at home, or they don't have nothing. You know nothing

547
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 10: to eat or you know what I'm saying. But we

548
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 10: give them, we diagnose them with stuff like that. But

549
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 10: my partner she covers that area and I can tell

550
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 10: them about the street part. So we do mentoring and

551
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 10: stuff like that.

552
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 6: You know, do they know when you come in because

553
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:44,640

746
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,800

748
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 4: had their own deal with dream Works and they was

749
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 4: doing the album. And as it was described to me,

750
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 4: the album was proposed to be like like like the

751
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,479
Speaker 4: Chronic how the Chranic had a bunch of unknown guys

752
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 4: and Dre were doing the beats, so so they was

753
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 4: looking for talent. They were looking for you know, unknown talent,

754
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 4: and so Jason called him and said, man, I got somebody. Man,

755
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 4: it's gonna be hard. It's gonna be harder than anything

756
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,320

1006
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.

1007
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 2: Let me ask you a question.

1008
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 5: When y'all get together like this, right, trying to separate it.

1009
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 5: But when y'all get together like this and these these

1010
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:26,359
Speaker 5: moments right, one moment that's coming to mind that the

1011
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 5: MTV Awards when y'all y'all came out and performed shoulder land.

1012
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:31,359
Speaker 3: But then you did what you know about that by

1013
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:32,640
Speaker 3: yourself being y'all.

1014
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 5: Have been through all of those life or death situations

1015
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 5: and all of that type of shit. And what is

1016
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 5: y'all mindset when y'all in those moments y'all just look

1017
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,080
Speaker 5: at each other and laugh, like God, we don't already.

1018
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,359
Speaker 4: Think about it, like we'll talk about it to like now,

1019
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 4: we just you know, if we weren't here, we probably

1020
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 4: we we create new moments, you know what I'm saying.

1021
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 4: The next moment is probably what we're thinking.

1022
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 1: About rebuilding, creating new moments. Just the thing.

1023
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, and you know till we watch black people

1024
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,359
Speaker 5: get there stolen all the time. Likeness gets stolen all

1025
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,040
Speaker 5: the time, and it's usually big fish ease little fish

1026
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 5: with these corporations. What made you want to go to

1027
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 5: war with with that that corporation numerous times too?

1028
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:14,759
Speaker 4: And yeah, I'm gonna be very very clear concise with

1029
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:18,120
Speaker 4: my message, and I'm gonna be honest and direct. I

1030
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:19,719
Speaker 4: did not want to. This was my wife.

1031
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 2: My wife.

1032
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, she was the one who were pressing the hell

1033
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:26,040
Speaker 4: out the issue. But she kept pressing the hell out

1034
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:30,279
Speaker 4: the issue, and and I'm glad she did you know

1035
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:33,200
Speaker 4: what I'm saying, I'm glad she did. God bless you know.

1036
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,279
Speaker 4: That's that's that's what marriage is fucked, that's absolutely and

1037
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,799
Speaker 4: I think, you know it was her tenacity. And now

1038
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:45,600
Speaker 4: I was I saw it, but I just didn't see how,

1039
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,880
Speaker 4: you know, we could just keep pushing it, pushing and

1040
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 4: pushing it like that, and it ship was caustly, you

1041
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. We were probably like three and

1042
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:57,440
Speaker 4: a half million in and and every time we go

1043
00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 4: back to court it's another some figure bea And then

1044
00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 4: the last time we had lost the case, you know,

1045
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:10,759
Speaker 4: for whatever reason, and then the other then he had

1046
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 4: the nerve to send me his bill. I said, I know,

1047
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:16,359
Speaker 4: you fucking life. And then the law changed. The law

1048
00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 4: change that said that the First Amendment could no longer

1049
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 4: protect uh, you know when it comes to light to likeness,

1050
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 4: uh and so on. I think it was some kind

1051
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:32,240
Speaker 4: of Jack Daniels case where it was a little puppy,

1052
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 4: a little a little like a little dog that a

1053
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 4: little Jack Russell dogg that I think it had something

1054
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,840
Speaker 4: similar to Jack Daniels own it. And they thought that

1055
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,640
Speaker 4: they could do that. And Jack Daniels, the whiskey was like, no,

1056
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 4: y'all can't do that. It's like, now it's a parody.

1057
00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,319
Speaker 4: And we protected out of the First Amendment and the

1058
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 4: Supreme Court rule no you're not. And that's what got

1059
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,440
Speaker 4: us back in court and to Judge said, okay, well

1060
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 4: this law change, so we had to go and we

1061
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,600
Speaker 4: have to revisit this all over again. And thank and

1062
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:04,480
Speaker 4: thank god, you know, we did. And Judge was extremely

1063
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 4: he was extremely fall you know. Uh. And and I

1064
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,959
Speaker 4: think that the jury that we had could see through

1065
00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,759
Speaker 4: a lot of the shenanigans and nonsense that the other

1066
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:18,719
Speaker 4: side were trying to pull. Although I understand the other

1067
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 4: side position. You know, this guy, he's you know, he's

1068
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:26,560
Speaker 4: a billionaire, right and and I'm sure he not in

1069
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,560
Speaker 4: that motherfucker looking every day and who does and trying

1070
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 4: to say what. So I'm sure some people who he

1071
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 4: had put in position who probably didn't want to do

1072
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,719
Speaker 4: some work and just say, you know what, I could

1073
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 4: just take this and do this and then that that

1074
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,280
Speaker 4: he won't know, you know, and he probably didn't until

1075
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:46,920
Speaker 4: and then. But now, hey, the crazy thing is they

1076
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:48,439
Speaker 4: probably would have offered you guys a deal.

1077
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:49,960
Speaker 1: You guys probably would have did.

1078
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 4: A deal with the bactability absolutely, man, I mean like

1079
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,279
Speaker 4: at the beginning, We've had several mediations and he just

1080
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,360
Speaker 4: never wanted He never wanted to come to the table

1081
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:00,880
Speaker 4: to mediate, you know what I'm saying, never even thought

1082
00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:06,600

1303
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:14,560

1304
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:17,360
Speaker 4: were going on, but they didn't necessarily tell us. So

1305
01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 4: when we walked up, it was kind of really really

1306
01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:21,320
