It's a production of I Heart Radio. 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: What's Up as I see you're listening to The Daily Game, 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:12,160 Speaker 1: a compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years 4 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: that I found inspiring and helped me through the game 5 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: of life. Today's quote is something from the late the 6 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: great Iceberg Slim. For those of you don't know, Iceberg 7 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: was a pimp and then later became a legit writer. 8 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,639 Speaker 1: I was very fortunate to meet Iceberg Slim. I named 9 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: myself after Iceberg Slim. When I was in high school. 10 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: I used to read the books and I used to 11 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 1: spit a lot of knowledge and game from Iceberg slims 12 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: to the young girl in high school. I would never 13 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: tell him it was him. I thought they thought it 14 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,279 Speaker 1: was me, you know, talking like a forty five year 15 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 1: old player. But at some point people used to say, 16 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: say some more that ice stuff tea, and that's where 17 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: iced tea came from. Iced tea is short for Iceberg. 18 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: So my friends call me Berg in honor of Iceberg, 19 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: and I was fortunate enough to meet Iceberg Slim before 20 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,759 Speaker 1: he passed. We also did a documentary on him called 21 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 1: Portrait of a Pimp that you could check out. I 22 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: told him my name myself after him, and he said, 23 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: but who better, baby, So he gave me the nod 24 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: to be the second Iceberg. Here's some knowledge from Iceberg. 25 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: Slim may rest in peace. A fool only trips on 26 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,199 Speaker 1: what's behind him.

A lot of people do that 30 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: and they can never progress because they are continuously thinking 31 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: about something that happened before that, something that happened back 32 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: in the day.
