Speaker 2: what y'all want to say. That ship fired. I appreciate
Speaker 2: it like this, this is this, That right there is
Speaker 2: what this ship supposed to be. Like you know what
Speaker 2: I'm saying.

Speaker 2: Like what was the things I was going through? Y'all
Speaker 2: hell when y'all got off the plane.
Speaker 1: Like this we about to see We pulled up shouts
Speaker 1: to Henny Henny Arena last year in San Francisco, so
Speaker 1: we had pulled up. What we remember was if we
Speaker 1: get a rental to make sure the car unlocked, don't
Speaker 1: put ship in the motherfuck that will be your liability.
Speaker 1: Is gonna be using that in that claim. That's somebody
Speaker 1: put us on games.
Speaker 2: We pulled up. Yeah, remember no rentals, you stopped in
Speaker 2: the lock. But walking down the street.
Speaker 1: And what they fail to tell y'all is y'all caught
Speaker 1: the tail end of the ship. That was like a trend, right,
Speaker 1: So y'all caught the tail that ship didn't like die.
Speaker 2: Damn.
Speaker 1: We we might be close to a year past that,
Speaker 1: right man, because what happens every once everybody start to
Speaker 1: like not leave nothing in the cars, leaving their windows down.
Speaker 1: So that because the broken window was the headache, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, then all the difference was like ship,
Speaker 1: we ain't making no money, so it started to go away.
Speaker 1: We ain't really had a whole lot of that within
Speaker 1: the last year or so.

Speaker 5: Now, I'm just make sure y'all straight man, anytime relationship, no, Bro, we.
Speaker 2: Know the world know you as a rapper. You love ball?
Speaker 2: Who Like, what was your position in high school?
Speaker 3: I was a two guard man. I still hold the
Speaker 3: point record at my high school. I dropped forty seven
Speaker 3: and three quarters. I was very passionate about basketball, but
Speaker 3: I got caught cheating on my c S a T test,
Speaker 3: so I didn't pass clearing house rules. That's how I
Speaker 3: ended up becoming a rapper. I was like, I got
Speaker 3: to do something else because I didn't talk too much
Speaker 3: ship to go to the thirteenth grade.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: Not going to a JC and go ball at a
Speaker 3: JAC when I didn't told all the girls I was
Speaker 3: going to duke line my ass.
Speaker 4: So but wrapping worked out for me.
Speaker 2: Some school some schools checking you out though, like did you?
Speaker 4: I had a lot of offers.
Speaker 3: I just was a hard head bro. I didn't listen. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I was very spoiled as a kid. You know, I
Speaker 3: come from a rich culture, rich heritage, and I didn't
Speaker 3: have to work at the Always say if I would
Speaker 3: have made it to the league, I would have been
Speaker 3: worse than Tigue. I would have been a nigga that
Speaker 3: would have been in the strip club right after the game.
Speaker 3: I know tig used to go to Magic City right
Speaker 3: after them Hawks games. I wouldn't been there at halftime.
Speaker 7: Imagine City was my spot was Diamonds of Atlanta was
Speaker 7: right by my crew. Okay, okay, my challenge used to
Speaker 7: be posted up. I was legendary in there. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 7: I got.
Speaker 1: A question for you know what I'm saying you open
Speaker 1: hoops and stuff to ask him who the best PG
Speaker 1: out of Auckland.
Speaker 4: Jason Kidd?
Speaker 3: Jason Kidd one thousand percent, Gary Payton as well. I
Speaker 3: don't think Dame gonna catch you, man, Dame Dame still
Speaker 3: got work to do.
Speaker 2: That's quiet, still got work to do. If if j
Speaker 2: Kidd played in Alameda, does.
Speaker 6: That County.
Speaker 2: High schoot ball sing Joe and all right? But okay, respect,
Speaker 2: I ain't mad at that. It's just yeah, I got
Speaker 2: GP for sure.
Speaker 5: Definitely shout to Gary Payton, shout okay, yeah, but Dame
Speaker 5: Dame little different. Dame Dollar different bro, like Jason Kidd
Speaker 5: was one of your traditional pgs, but Damon Lillard bro
Speaker 5: is probably the best player to come out of Oakland, Bro.
Speaker 2: But you probably know better. You know, I wouldn't disagree
Speaker 2: with you.
Speaker 3: I only said j Kidd because of the heritage and
Speaker 3: how we grew up watching J Kid.
Speaker 4: So I know Dame is still fulfilling his career. He
Speaker 4: got a lot more to go. I just talked to
Speaker 4: him the other night, and I know he won't that ring.
Speaker 3: But Jay Kidd is somebody we've seen playing high school,
Speaker 3: go to the NBA coach like, we've watched this whole thing.
Speaker 3: And he's also big in our community out here as well.
Speaker 4: So it's just a.
Speaker 3: Different level of love and respect when it comes to
Speaker 3: j Kid, But soon as the Dame as well.
Speaker 8: I want to say this about Dame too, y'all. I
Speaker 8: used to be at all Dame games because my brother
Speaker 8: played against him. He's the same dude, He's the same,
Speaker 8: nothing has changed from high school to the pros. He
Speaker 8: was pulling from logo in high school. Most niggas get
Speaker 8: benched for that, you know what I'm saying, Especially at
Speaker 8: them times, kids just throwing that motherfucker up now. But
Speaker 8: Dame was pulling and he had the green light, so
Speaker 8: you know he could shoot. But shout out the OHI man,
Speaker 8: Dame was a fool up at that school.
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely man to see what done him?
Speaker 1: Did he probably because I might have to agree with
Speaker 1: that he might be close to the best player to
Speaker 1: come out of here that didn't have the most hype
Speaker 1: coming out of here. He went, he went to Webers,
Speaker 1: He went to Weaver and shot the pitch out the
Speaker 1: ball and the way he turned it up there, I
Speaker 1: don't think nobody thought Dame coming out of Oakland High.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, it was finna turn into
Speaker 1: what he did. He went there, he was shooting lights out,
Speaker 1: you can denominate it, and.
Speaker 2: He kept going. You know what I'm saying. It never
Speaker 2: leveled out. He got to the league and just turned
Speaker 2: the funk up.
Speaker 1: So they shout out to Dame because I don't when
Speaker 1: he was in high school, I don't know if he
Speaker 1: had the hype that some of the other dudes.
Speaker 2: I think Ray Young had more hype coming out of
Speaker 2: high school.
Speaker 6: And I don't know Ray Young.
Speaker 2: Jersey watching I be.
Speaker 1: Tripping on what may Dame decided to I'd be curious
Speaker 1: to find out from his people how he decided to
Speaker 1: go to Weaver.
Speaker 2: That's what he said.
Speaker 1: This his assistant coach he was flying with back from
Speaker 1: the crib. He was just like he was out here,
Speaker 1: was just like, hey, like, I got a shot for
Speaker 1: you out here, he say.
Speaker 2: He rocked with it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he came and talked about that for sure, he said,
Speaker 1: saying one a few places he could go say. It
Speaker 1: was a direct cord election from the city he tapped in.
Speaker 5: It was actually a choice, all right, So you know
Speaker 5: what I mean, hoop didn't work. It was a damn
Speaker 5: food So you can't no more?
Speaker 4: What was the undisciplined being? I wasn't a fool.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 2: I got you though. That's why I'm of your life now.
Speaker 2: I got you though, Like what was what was the
Speaker 2: rapping influence? Though?
Speaker 3: Man?
Speaker 4: Bro?
Speaker 2: Just do you guys take you to the studio? You
Speaker 2: know what I mean? Did you randomly freestyle around the team?
Speaker 2: Like how you get into it?
Speaker 7: Man?
Speaker 3: Honestly, Bro, it was something we started like hooping like
Speaker 3: we used to be in the locker room, just freestyling
Speaker 3: and rapping.
Speaker 4: You know what, I mean just having fun.
Speaker 3: I'm sure y'all did the same thing coming up, just
Speaker 3: having fun with it being on the team bus. My
Speaker 3: name is Simba. Yeah I got them bitches. Yeah, you
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. That's where it started. That's where
Speaker 3: it started from. But I just kept going and I
Speaker 3: fell in love with the craft. And I'm somebody that like,
Speaker 3: I love the process of things more than I actually
Speaker 3: do the beginning of it or the ending result. So
Speaker 3: I love going through the process and rap for me
Speaker 3: with something that was like the first thing that I
Speaker 3: was never good at that I had to work to
Speaker 3: get better at right. So like who, I was a
Speaker 3: natural athlete, so I could literally get in the game
Speaker 3: and my cless effort would be a lot of people's
Speaker 3: a work, you know what I mean. But music was
Speaker 3: something I really had to learn and really get into
Speaker 3: the craft of it, and I just fell in love
Speaker 3: with it from there.
Speaker 1: I a question for you, I ain't gonna sorry about
Speaker 1: Like who you feel like? Who like influence you musically?
Speaker 1: Like basketball? Who you play like?
Speaker 3: They call me Lance simbuston me, that's what that's if
Speaker 3: they call me in La fitness, you called me Lance
Speaker 3: Symbols I'm a defender. You know what I'm saying. I
Speaker 3: knocked down a couple of threes, but I'm gonna irritate
Speaker 3: the funk out you. Yes sir, Yes, sir, Yes sir.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get all in your ear. I'm gonna talk
Speaker 3: that ship. I'm gonna steal the ball from you. I'm
Speaker 3: gonna do a pulse. I'm gonna do whatever I'm supposed
Speaker 3: to do to make sure we win the game.
Speaker 2: Okay, say I never thought you was a defender. No nigga,
Speaker 2: I locked niggas up pass. I'm just saying you said
Speaker 2: forty seven, I thought you were.
Speaker 3: That's when I'm ball hogging and nobody out there guarding me.
Speaker 3: So if I got some defenders on me, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: adapt and go the other way and I'm gonna knock
Speaker 3: down some threes and play some defense.
Speaker 2: I forget.
Speaker 6: I know we talked about music, like who influenced you
Speaker 6: the rap?
Speaker 7: Like I know you said you started off on a
Speaker 7: hoop tip rapping on the bus and stuff, but like
Speaker 7: when you got serious about it, Like now, even before that,
Speaker 7: like who was you listening to?
Speaker 6: Like that's my ship?
Speaker 3: And bro jay Z, like jay Z was always jay Z,
Speaker 3: Jada Kiss. I seen Jada Kiss last night, which was
Speaker 3: crazy because I had my best friend with me and
Speaker 3: she told him like this, nigga never happens without you,
Speaker 3: because we used to ride the school to Jada Kiss,
Speaker 3: Like she told him. We used to be late the
Speaker 3: class to go buy his albums and things like that.
Speaker 3: So I always was inspired by, like reality rap, not
Speaker 3: just people that could rap because of rhyme, people that
Speaker 3: really said something that spoked our culture, spoked our community
Speaker 3: and pushed us forward as a culture is what I
Speaker 3: always related to. So the Jada Kisses, the Kendrick Lamar's,

Speaker 3: He made sure I was taken care of on the
Speaker 3: Red Car, but he made sure I was seeing. He
Speaker 3: made sure I got with John Legend and he just
Speaker 3: rocked with my freestyles, so he didn't have to do that,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. And Draymond as well. Shout
Speaker 3: out to both of them. They both played the part
Speaker 3: in my my come up. So I'm forever im bettered
Speaker 3: to them and forever loved him forever than my big
Speaker 3: brothers right there.
Speaker 1: That's I know, like making mixtapte, makeing albums is different,
Speaker 1: but that that movie score, oh yeah, that's a different situation.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, especially when you control the music in there too.
Speaker 3: Especially when you do that, it's a lot of fun.
Speaker 3: One thing that making a movie taught me is like
Speaker 3: why the music industry is not thriving right now because
Speaker 3: as a movie it's a production. I think one of
Speaker 3: the hardest things to do is get your team on
Speaker 3: one accord as a whole, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: And when you shooting a movie, you got the camera guy,
Speaker 3: you got the director, you got whoever.
Speaker 4: It may be, they all in sync. And music is
Speaker 4: not like that.
Speaker 3: So I really enjoy shooting a movie because I can
Speaker 3: appreciate the process of the production.
Speaker 1: So it's like a lot of ego involved the music
Speaker 1: that kind of hinders people from those When you go
Speaker 1: to movie sets even podcast productions, everybody gotta roll, everybody's
Speaker 1: trying to outside each other. Movie everybody got being synkle
Speaker 1: or the movie Cereble, everybody getting fired. Music, too much
Speaker 1: ego involved and people just going straight with stuff. That's
Speaker 1: why you see like legendary rappers and producers breakup. It's
Speaker 1: like y'all been making cry forever, but a little bit
Speaker 1: of stuff getting away. Asks what's what's that like in sports?
Speaker 6: Team?
Speaker 2: Because I know it's tough when the team ain't don
Speaker 2: want to cord break down.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Different in the NBA because it's a money based league.
Speaker 7: So if you on a max deal, obviously you got
Speaker 7: more pull than somebody on a minimum deal. So it's
Speaker 7: never gonna be like one accord because I'm trying to
Speaker 7: get paid. I'm trying to get where you at. So
Speaker 7: when I'm in the game, I'm trying to get my
Speaker 7: extra five shot. I'm trying to do whatever I do
Speaker 7: I can get some more money from my family. So
Speaker 7: you never That's why when I played in the NBA,
Speaker 7: I didn't look at it like that. Like I always
Speaker 7: make jokes about the league and stuff and it was
Speaker 7: fun or whatever, but I knew it was a business.
Speaker 7: Like I'm on a fast break and I got somebody
Speaker 7: can jump behind me. I'm not throwing the ball back.
Speaker 2: I need my too, like the crowd. The crowd's not
Speaker 2: gonna be feeling that, like throw the ball back.
Speaker 7: But no, I need my two average eight. I got six,
Speaker 7: I need my eight, you know what I mean. So
Speaker 7: it's kind of a weird league. If you find a
Speaker 7: groove with a team that everybody got paid already, that's
Speaker 7: when you see the good team. That's why when y'all
Speaker 7: had Oakland with the Warriors, everybody had already been paid.
Speaker 2: Man, that's a.
Speaker 3: That's another conversation that we've been having here too, because
Speaker 3: since the Warriors left Oakland, it felt like the Warriors
Speaker 3: lost that culture. When we walk into the Chase Center,
Speaker 3: we love it, we appreciate everybody there. But when they
Speaker 3: were in Oakland, I knew the security guards, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean. It was never a time to where
Speaker 3: I was standing outside and couldn't get into the player's
Speaker 3: interests or couldn't get into the arena because people in
Speaker 3: Oakland knw. I was so shout out to everybody at
Speaker 3: the Chase Center, But we are really missing that culture
Speaker 3: of what we had when we were in Oakland versus
Speaker 3: what's at the Chase Center now.
Speaker 7: When y'all played in Oakland, the vibe was way different,
Speaker 7: Like I felt like we could win when we came
Speaker 7: in the Chase Center.
Speaker 3: When you played hold On, hold On, hold On, hold on,
Speaker 3: rewinding every wind everyone what.
Speaker 4: You mean, you felt like you could win.
Speaker 7: Like the vibe makes the same like when we used
Speaker 7: to come in Oakland, especially when y'all that run first
Speaker 7: started with Stephan clay Mark Jackson, that whole are you
Speaker 7: knew you was losing when you came here. The crowd
Speaker 7: was too much, Like they had gone fifteen point run
Speaker 7: so easy. The crowd was too much when they got
Speaker 7: to the Chase Center.
Speaker 2: What was it was great? What was it like?
Speaker 4: What was it like like having to go against that?
Speaker 3: You got Clay on one side, you got Katie over there,
Speaker 3: you got Draymond pushing the.
Speaker 4: Ball up to kick it the curry that was she?
Speaker 3: What was that like as a as a player, as
Speaker 3: like some has really out there on the floor with them,
Speaker 3: niggas are confusing?
Speaker 7: Was that your goal was just to make it to
Speaker 7: the fourth quarter. If it was a close game by
Speaker 7: the fourth, then you got a chance to win it.
Speaker 7: Like we just got to stay close to the fourth
Speaker 7: man that first quarter. If they go out and go
Speaker 7: on a twenty old run, they could do that. They
Speaker 7: can hit five six threes in a row, and it's
Speaker 7: over it.
Speaker 2: You done.
Speaker 7: They gonna win by thirty because you can't shoot with them.
Speaker 7: You couldn't keep up. But if you can get to
Speaker 7: the fourth quarter and make it interesting, that's how you
Speaker 7: have to think about it when you play here.
Speaker 6: But if that halftime you down fifteen, it's over.
Speaker 2: May fourth.
Speaker 7: We start making your plans, bro. And it's where I'm
Speaker 7: going tonight. It should you brought that up?
Speaker 1: Is like the situation went Dallas, Like they're trying to
Speaker 1: get that resort, right, so all the fans who've been
Speaker 1: around that organization is pissed because they heartened souls into this.
Speaker 1: But you look at the organizations like now we're about
Speaker 1: to build this resort, We about to get this bread.
Speaker 1: So it's kind of the same situation. It sucks when
Speaker 1: you're successful because now it's not more opportunity. We said,
Speaker 1: the people along the way to build the stuff, they
Speaker 1: get lost in the situation. But then people don't get
Speaker 1: looked at this people. They can look at his numbers
Speaker 1: in the situation.
Speaker 10: Right.
Speaker 1: That's what I try to tell Rad was having this conversation.
Speaker 2: You know, we're talking about Raiders leaving and going to Vegas.
Speaker 1: How that kind of fucked the city up, and you know,
Speaker 1: the tailgate and all this shit around the surrounding Raiders
Speaker 1: was like that was like a lifestyle. It was a
Speaker 1: part of urt you know what I'm saying, the fabric
Speaker 1: of Oakland. And then when they left with them, when
Speaker 1: you look at it, they go from one of the
Speaker 1: like worst value teams and sports to like worth billions
Speaker 1: of dollars and then when you look at it from
Speaker 1: that aspect, like, how do you hate a business?
Speaker 2: You cannot do that, you know what I mean? So
Speaker 2: how do y'all feel? All y'all in this room?
Speaker 8: So when we was having that conversation, I asked, team
Speaker 8: because sports has fans though, right, and so the fans
Speaker 8: have to be into it. Are we heading towards super
Speaker 8: corporate to where like I look back at old games
Speaker 8: and fans didn't even have jerseys on. They didn't even
Speaker 8: have team gear on. Like if you look at old
Speaker 8: NBA videos in the eighties, it wasn't apparel wasn't even
Speaker 8: selling like that. So do y'all feel like sports is
Speaker 8: moving to that? Just like we're gonna be big and
Speaker 8: the team is gonna be worth this, but we don't
Speaker 8: care about the championships?
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, championships don't necessarily make you valuable unless
Speaker 1: you're trying to sell the team to an extent. I mean,
Speaker 1: of course you want to have a successful organization, but
Speaker 1: look at Dallas Cowboys. We didn't want a Super Bowl
Speaker 1: since I was elementary school, but they're the most profitable
Speaker 1: business in sports.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, Bro, it's a narcotic. Nobody had Jerry Curl in
Speaker 2: that house. He had a little job to say that
Speaker 2: in the Raiders, is the AFC equivalent to the Cowboys?
Speaker 2: Like we really the same friends?
Speaker 1: Now our fans, your friend, the Raiders fans, y'all respect, y'all,
Speaker 1: y'all moved differently Cowboys fans, Cowboys fans.
Speaker 2: Whatever.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, Jerry Jones is really out. They philosophies
Speaker 1: in the way they are between. Jerry Jones is a
Speaker 1: better business man, but they philosophy on the on the
Speaker 1: team owners ownership. But it's the same they and all
Speaker 1: the business they you know what I'm saying. The videos,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, true election for.
Speaker 2: Real, that's game on the Raiders. That's crazy.
Speaker 6: Understanding.
Speaker 2: It's no game.
Speaker 1: Some of the ship I see Jay Jones do, I'll
Speaker 1: be like, damn Ol Davis is living through.
Speaker 2: He would have did that same exact ship for sure.
Speaker 1: I mean, look at the NBA, Bro, Look how long
Speaker 1: it took him to get oh boy from from the
Speaker 1: Clippers away, Yeah from like he bought that for one
Speaker 1: hundred Come on, bro, look how long it took. How
Speaker 1: much blatant ship had to happen for them to make
Speaker 1: him sell that team.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, bro.
Speaker 6: Let me ask you a question, how do you feel
Speaker 6: about the Niners though?
Speaker 2: Let me say this, I'm a Niners hater from I
Speaker 2: was fucking forty nine Ers man again, We Raider fans
Speaker 2: can Raider hold on? Get my good sideady? Your ready,
Speaker 2: fucking forty nine Ers man. We Raider fans out of.
Speaker 6: Team forty nine ers.
Speaker 1: Go deeper than that, because you know, Oakland is the
Speaker 1: blue collar city in San Francisco is like they like
Speaker 1: the princesses of the You know what I'm saying, they
Speaker 1: kind of like the.
Speaker 2: Way we just got kid. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 2: you got you gotta realize we for we for we
Speaker 2: from I thought you're gonna say, like the Kings. No, no,
Speaker 2: no no. And when I say princesses, I'm not talking
Speaker 2: about they are princesses.
Speaker 1: I'm saying the way they treated you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: they apologize for the we like to write.
Speaker 2: We like the step child of this ship.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, iron workers, blue collar, that
Speaker 1: type of ship.
Speaker 2: You know what say, we get to we get the
Speaker 2: worst of every day. But we were all the culture. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Colin Kaepernick, I got a.
Speaker 3: Theory about college. I got a theory about Colin Kaepernick.
Speaker 3: And I never said this, but we on Club five twenty.
Speaker 3: I'm with my nigga, T my nigga, DJ Wells and
Speaker 3: my nigga be hearing out the Pearlies. I was saying,
Speaker 3: I think that nigga got on that black and the
Speaker 3: Black shit because he was playing terrible.
Speaker 2: I think I think it started.
Speaker 3: Going bad and he was having a bad season and
Speaker 3: he just started taking the knee to take attention off
Speaker 3: his performance.
Speaker 6: He wanted to get playing though, but he wasn't playing
Speaker 6: at that time.
Speaker 7: Though when he started he was, he was coming off
Speaker 7: the bench at that's It was definitely I thought he
Speaker 7: was gonna go with that one.
Speaker 2: I thought I thought he had.
Speaker 3: I just always felt like it came out of nowhere,
Speaker 3: Like it was just like he just started taking the
Speaker 3: knee one day, out of nowhere, and it was just
Speaker 3: like where.
Speaker 4: This comes from.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the time it could be, you know, be impeccable,
Speaker 1: but yeah, the play was definitely the client.
Speaker 6: Len Sanders was on the Niners an't yeah that's prime time.
Speaker 2: We love them.
Speaker 1: But I was a big Rod Woodson fince my clothes
Speaker 1: home byes.
Speaker 2: I thought Rod Woolson was a better d be than
Speaker 2: dionna I said, yeah, we're gonna what you said. No,
Speaker 2: Rod Woodson did it. Oh you remember Rod Woodson, right,
Speaker 2: definitely he did.
Speaker 1: He did it all a lot of Dion we really
Speaker 1: didn't get to see a lot of because they were
Speaker 1: scared to go his direction.
Speaker 2: That's my If you can make plays like because they're
Speaker 2: not throwing my way, I'm probably better. But I just
Speaker 2: I just wanted that one clip where I seen Dion
Speaker 2: just stick his head. You get.
Speaker 1: You're gonna ge shoot and miss innestment that Rob Woodson
Speaker 1: one of the hardest throwbacks of all time.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, get them stickers was hard.
Speaker 8: First snikers with white laces mar black niggas were white
Speaker 8: like was that was all the way.
Speaker 2: Over here.
Speaker 8: First and we gotta get We gotta give Prime more

Speaker 3: and like everyone means something different, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: I probably was pissed off one day when I wrote
Speaker 3: the La Leakers joint, but I was feeling myself when
Speaker 3: I wrote the Fire and the Booth joint, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean. So it's just everyone be different for me.
Speaker 3: But if I had to pick one, I would say
Speaker 3: the funk Flex joint. I would say when I went
Speaker 3: to funk Flex and not the two part part. But
Speaker 3: when I broke down, just what happens to us as
Speaker 3: young black men with success?
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. We get money.
Speaker 3: We come from these impoverished communities to where a lot
Speaker 3: of our friends have the sine of familiarity. A lot
Speaker 3: of niggas be hanging with the next Michael Jordan don't
Speaker 3: even know it, be with the next jay Z and
Speaker 3: don't even know it because they your friend, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean. And I was rapping from that perspective
Speaker 3: just to show like how they ain't fair to where
Speaker 3: we get these positions, and we had a dream of
Speaker 3: certain people being in that dream, and then you get
Speaker 3: there and it's like, oh, you can't go, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean, everybody ain't meant to go. So if
Speaker 3: I had to pick one, I would definitely say the
Speaker 3: funk Flex.
Speaker 2: What's the process with that? Though?
Speaker 5: As you going in like hey, I'm gonna do this beat,
Speaker 5: or you already kind of know what you're gonna say,
Speaker 5: or it's just more so like I'm.
Speaker 3: Wonder them people here in the where I just let
Speaker 3: life happen, bro like I don't. I don't try to
Speaker 3: calculate nothing. I just let it happen.
Speaker 2: Like I wrote that funk Flex verse three days before
Speaker 2: I found out I.
Speaker 4: Was going up there. Okay, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: So I'm in Philly on tour with my nigga joiner
Speaker 3: Luken shut out the joiner we on tour, and then
Speaker 3: my label had hit me like yo, Flex want you
Speaker 3: to come up rap. I'm like, what beat he want
Speaker 3: me to do? They like wu tang cream bet say
Speaker 3: no more. The whole way from Philly to New York,
Speaker 3: I'm writing, you know what I'm saying. I'm writing the verse.

Speaker 3: the hotel at four in the morning trying to rememborize
Speaker 3: it shit because I got to be there at seven.
Speaker 4: Am, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: So it was it's a different process. But I take
Speaker 3: my Craft series what I think. There's too many people
Speaker 3: that could funk with me.
Speaker 2: Now you one of them ones.
Speaker 5: Like I said, it's so crazy that like me and
Speaker 5: you building a relationship for sure, But bro, I used
Speaker 5: to post your ship all the time.
Speaker 2: A couple of years ago from.
Speaker 3: Now, I was watching the episode and somebody had yelled
Speaker 3: out senble no how to hoop and Teege was like, no,
Speaker 3: he don't I seen. He was like, no, that's my
Speaker 3: nigga with you And I went back to like, go
Speaker 3: DM you and I had seen like you tagging me
Speaker 3: ship before, so it's.
Speaker 5: Like before this nigga is the one, and you from
Speaker 5: all the way out here. I don't even know where
Speaker 5: he was from. But my brother's like, bro, tap in
Speaker 5: he sent me. I forgot the first one I sent you.
Speaker 5: It's in our DMS for sure, But Bro, I was
Speaker 5: taking you all the time because I was really like, nah,
Speaker 5: he one of them one.
Speaker 3: Everybody asked this year pause, Like I said, we on
Speaker 3: Club five twenty. So I'm letting it be known. I
Speaker 3: was in a crazy situation and I just got out
Speaker 3: of yeah, and I'm a free man now, and I
Speaker 3: think all y'all should be afraid, be afraid, be very afraid.
Speaker 2: Speaking of we don't have to talk about the label none.
Speaker 2: What did you learn from that? Though?
Speaker 3: Never dropping to your team won't want a court if
Speaker 3: your team ain't don't want to court, especially when you're
Speaker 3: in the buildings. Every department got align right, So the
Speaker 3: marketing side got to be aligned with the product manager.
Speaker 3: The product manager got to be aligned with the A
Speaker 3: and R. The A and R got to be aligned
Speaker 3: with the executive. If all this shit ain't aligned, when
Speaker 3: the executive comes downstairs to spend the money, you look
Speaker 3: like you ain't got your shit together, and then you
Speaker 3: end up falling to the mercy of that. So a
Speaker 3: lot of times I would put my destiny in other
Speaker 3: people's hands and I slowly start taking it back, and
Speaker 3: I'll never do that again.
Speaker 2: Okay for sure?
Speaker 6: For sure, And I kind of hear home.
Speaker 2: Niggas had a moment of solid god blest to the
Speaker 2: new journey. So what's on tour? What we're doing?
Speaker 4: We got tour on the way.
Speaker 3: But the thing that I'm mostly excited about is this
Speaker 3: new movie, Freaky Tales with Tom Hanks and Pedro Pascal,
Speaker 3: coming out this April.
Speaker 2: Excited about it.
Speaker 3: I got the opportunity to play one of my idols,
Speaker 3: too short in nineteen eighties. You said what you had
Speaker 3: on the ball, but the teeth look crazy.
Speaker 2: You'll see me with the teeth. That's gonna be crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's all right.
Speaker 3: They shout out the Macro, shout out the lions Gate.
Speaker 3: But that was that was phenomenal for me. That's what
Speaker 3: I'm super excited about. And getting back to the music.
Speaker 1: You deserve all that ship bro for real, where I've
Speaker 1: been going. I didn't even trip to an All Star weekend.
Speaker 1: Niggas feel like you could have played Anthony.
Speaker 2: This nigga like Anthony Edwards. Everywhere I go there be
Speaker 2: thinking this nigga.
Speaker 5: You could, you could, you could probably. In twenty seventeen,
Speaker 5: Hey over commercial.
Speaker 2: Shut out.
Speaker 3: Shout out to my dog Langston at Adidas, who works
Speaker 3: with AE, works with James, works with Dame. Y'all been
Speaker 3: killing that AE campaign and commercials.
Speaker 4: Everything y'all been doing. Bro, y'all been killing the man.
Speaker 4: Shout out to y'all over at Adidas.
Speaker 1: Then shout the camp shout to Allen for Shure. I
Speaker 1: want to ask you this, man, I know your freestyles.
Speaker 1: It got crazy, but like, what's that feeling like or
Speaker 1: that first feeling when you got your stage moment? You
Speaker 1: like a rid like that first concert?
Speaker 4: Like I hear you don't feel like that. Really, I
Speaker 4: still don't feel like that. DJ. I still feel like
Speaker 4: I got shipped to do. I got ship to prove,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: So even when I'm up there and I hear people
Speaker 3: screaming the lyrics or one of my songs, people sing
Speaker 3: a lot when I perform, it is king win for
Speaker 3: nothing and it's it's a you feeling. But it's also
Speaker 3: like I could do more. I could be bigger. I
Speaker 3: could beat this, you know what I'm saying. I hear
Speaker 3: where the drums could be better. I hear where I
Speaker 3: got lazy on the lyric. I hear it where I
Speaker 3: was just trying to win the crowd over with the hook.
Speaker 3: And now it's like, how do authentically beat me with this?
Speaker 3: No matter what I'm doing, And I'm owning that now
Speaker 3: and I'm stepping into it and I'm not allowing no
Speaker 3: motherfucker to force my process. I'm gonna take my time.
Speaker 3: Rather it take me a year, two years, three years,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get it right. But I'm gonna take my
Speaker 3: motherfucker time. When that time is right, y'all gonna see it.
Speaker 7: We always ask people like they goats mouth rushmore. I
Speaker 7: know you said you rocked with jay Z, but like
Speaker 7: we grew up like we said, we listen to Bootsy
Speaker 7: and shit. But loul Wayne when we was growing up,
Speaker 7: go man, he was like, say, we's a guy. I
Speaker 7: was wondering where you drink, loul Wayne.
Speaker 6: As far as like your rapperence favor rappers.
Speaker 4: T you my nigga, man, I hate that you asked
Speaker 4: me this because I can't lie to you. I love.
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 3: It was tough for us to grow with the music
Speaker 3: as it got older. I think he has a phenomenal catalog.
Speaker 2: But.
Speaker 3: It's certain things to me that I feel like, you know,
Speaker 3: could have been enhanced, or could have been whatever it
Speaker 3: may be. But he's a legend. I always got Winging
Speaker 3: in my top ten. But I'm somebody that choose quality
Speaker 3: over quantity. So when they come to artists, I'm always
Speaker 3: running with jay Z. I feel like his taste level
Speaker 3: is unmatched Kendrick Lamar, The taste level is unmatched. It's
Speaker 3: just certain drink even you know what I mean. It's
Speaker 3: certain people to where it's just like they put a
Speaker 3: certain effort into the music that we never heard before.
Speaker 4: We never seen they change the sound of things.
Speaker 3: We were just having a conversation about Drake and we
Speaker 3: were saying, like Drake like created the industry standard to
Speaker 3: where like if if you were somewhere close to that,
Speaker 3: you would be successful.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: So it's hard to now that Kendrick's the guy. It's
Speaker 3: hard to follow that because it's so authentically him. But
Speaker 3: Drake kind of created at a standard for everybody to
Speaker 3: kind of be like, hey, here's where we go with
Speaker 3: this thing. And I feel like went out as rappers
Speaker 3: as rappers, so as rappers. To me, he's one of
Speaker 3: the greatest rappers ever. But when it come to like songmaking,
Speaker 3: Drake took it to another level. Kendrick took it to
Speaker 3: another level.
Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
Speaker 3: So I salute everybody, And I don't want this to
Speaker 3: feel like I'm bashing one of my idols, because Wayne
Speaker 3: has done things I probably never do in my life.
Speaker 4: I look up to on my studium. I love him
Speaker 4: to death.
Speaker 3: But I feel like Drake and Kendrick and certain people
Speaker 3: people just took the songmaking ability to another level.
Speaker 2: It's like what you always say with championships, Like I'm
Speaker 2: saying the team will win.
Speaker 1: They set the tone right, Yeah, was winning for a
Speaker 1: very long time as far as industry standerds and numbers wise,
Speaker 1: So they kindreck come in all right, Now, how do
Speaker 1: you copy Kendrick. That's like trying to copy Kawhi getting
Speaker 1: that ring in Toronto. You can't do that ship, dude,
Speaker 1: that's an anomaly. You can build a good team, you
Speaker 1: can build a warrior's team. Dynasy add to that, like
Speaker 1: Drake had, But you can't go get Kawhiti, go somewhere,
Speaker 1: get one and go out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a fact.
Speaker 1: Like Drake has had like three successful rap careers in
Speaker 1: one mom only people realize he's been at the top
Speaker 1: of the game fifteen sixteen years.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, that's tough time.
Speaker 5: Drake came in with twenty and ten, two thousand and nine,
Speaker 5: came fr Rooki.
Speaker 7: Year so far gone? Oh way right, Yeah, that's that's
Speaker 7: what you changed. That's a long time to beat there
Speaker 7: at the top.
Speaker 1: What's your how y'all feel about half the rappers at
Speaker 1: halftime performance? Because I've been hearing people say the Kendrick
Speaker 1: shit was not so good, But in my opinion, I'd
Speaker 1: be like, damn, like what more could he have done to.
Speaker 2: Make it a better show?
Speaker 1: That's why we're trying to figure out, like what what
Speaker 1: can a rapper do if he's not a dancer or
Speaker 1: a breakdown?
Speaker 2: That's what it is.
Speaker 7: I don't think rappers should not saying they shouldn't do halftime,
Speaker 7: but if it's going to be a rapper kind of
Speaker 7: it got to be like how La did it well?
Speaker 7: All those rappers gave you different. Yeah, it can't be
Speaker 7: one dude, because they don't dance.
Speaker 1: I think one thing people upset about it. I'm a
Speaker 1: big Kendrick fan is we didn't get the set list
Speaker 1: were looking for, right. But the dope part about it
Speaker 1: is he took a world platform and made it his
Speaker 1: motivation and what he had going on. That's the dopest
Speaker 1: ship ever to me, I don't hear what you're talking about.
Speaker 1: I'm here for one reason and one reason only, and
Speaker 1: I showed the world of ship's accomplish though.
Speaker 2: We just don't want to see another nothing like that again.
Speaker 2: I'm all for could I have a moment?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: I love that. Swimming Pools is one of my favorite songs,
Speaker 2: Nigga right now listen, I'm all heres.
Speaker 5: So look, bro, the halftime show is a different platform.
Speaker 5: Like Kendrick doing that, He's the only one. That's why
Speaker 5: we want to see it no more. He's the only
Speaker 5: one that can do it and make his mark and
Speaker 5: everybody respected. We loved what he did. But bro, we
Speaker 5: don't want to see next year com and do the
Speaker 5: same thing. We don't want to see Loupe Fiasco the
Speaker 5: following year, you know. Yeah, So bring my name in
Speaker 5: the future would be a mess.
Speaker 2: Come out. You know, white people are so bad they're
Speaker 2: going back white.
Speaker 5: Kelly Clarkson is key, So y'all better enjoy the bar
Speaker 5: T shirts while you can't.
Speaker 2: Next year.
Speaker 5: I don't know, Bro, Miley to she donecause he running
Speaker 5: through his roster first, he got that contract.
Speaker 2: He do, Bro, But I feel like you gotta go
Speaker 2: with somebody, not that.
Speaker 8: We forgot how real quick how the super Bowl used
Speaker 8: to up the halftime performance. You're gonna have ac DC
Speaker 8: Metallica playing with her and some other rap Nick mac
Speaker 8: Lamore coming out to cut with a little verse.
Speaker 2: But Kendrick Kendrick could have did his thing for sure.
Speaker 2: Like I said, we all respected.
Speaker 5: It ain't no hate, but he could have brought out
Speaker 5: more people, sort of appease some more. Like, Bro, you
Speaker 5: gotta think I'm gonna just keep it real and all
Speaker 5: you fake conscious ass rappers nigga fuck y'all because because.
Speaker 2: Niggas don't keep it real.
Speaker 5: Bro, on my soul, all women watch super Bowl for
Speaker 5: the halftime show, my nigga, So I don't care about
Speaker 5: all what niggas is talking about. Brother, that is an
Speaker 5: entertainment moment. For people's families, bro, So they want to
Speaker 5: see they pop star. Like all of our girls listen
Speaker 5: to Little Wayne. So if he would have popped out, bro,
Speaker 5: they would have been singing along too and engaged and
Speaker 5: that shit.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. I think it was on
Speaker 2: brand for Kendrick just because it was a buck the
Speaker 2: system moment. Oh yeah, exactly.
Speaker 8: Also, and we got to remember this, he performed the
Speaker 8: songs he owned, so he was really fighting again into
Speaker 8: the system with that one. This was like, I ain't
Speaker 8: trying to come back Nigga on invite nah, right right, right.
Speaker 2: Right, Kendrick. He was a streaker.
Speaker 10: You know, somebody be in the crowd and they run,
Speaker 10: they run across the field.
Speaker 3: Did yeah you.
Speaker 2: Streaking out the super Bowl? You just talk this Nigga
Speaker 2: streaker just that moment. Okay, do what to protest? Figure
