1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,600
Speaker 1: I see Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:08,320
Speaker 1: Up besides Tee? You're listening to The Daily Game, the

3
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that

4
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: I found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. Today,

5
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. The

6
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: most gangster shit I ever did was turned my life around.

7
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: I'll say that one more time. The most gangstert shit

8
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: I ever did was turned my life around. I mean,

9
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 1: when you're out in the streets like I was, and

10
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,520
Speaker 1: you're hustling and you're doing this that in the third

11
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: you build up this imagy yourself that you're untouchable, that

12
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: you know, fuck the laws, I'll do whatever I want,

13
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: and that whole gangster persona is very intoxicating. But once

14
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: you realize that you're headed down a dead end and

15
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: you ended up definitely in prison or dead, it's time

16
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: to make a U turn. But sometimes that's hard to

17
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,479
Speaker 1: do because now it's like going out here and making

18
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 1: a career change. A lot of people have picked careers

19
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: in their lives and now they have to do something

20
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,680
Speaker 1: totally opposite from it, because this time has come upon

21
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 1: them and it's time to change. When it was time

22
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: for me to make the decision to go legit, the

23
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 1: first thing I did was I went broke. I'm no

24
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 1: longer getting money from illegal means, I'm no longer making

25
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: it on the streets. Then also, you got people in

26
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: the streets, it's like, oh, you squaring up. I had

27
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: to be gangster enough to say, yeah, motherfucker, yeah, I

28
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 1: am squaring up. Kiss my ass, And still to today.

29
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: You know, I'm on television. You know. The funny thing

30
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: about it is, even though I've been on TV playing

31
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: a cop all these years, the only people that come

32
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: at me about it are squares. Oh yeah, you lost

33
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: your street cred. They have no idea what street cred is,

34
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: and little to my knowledge, all the hustlers respected. They're like, ice,

35
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: you made that change. That was gangster. You're doing something

36
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 1: legit for your family and your wife and your kids.

37
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: That's gangster. You're not gonna go to prison, that's gangster.

38
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: You're the one that got away. That's gangster. They don't

39
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 1: care what I'm playing on television. That's a job to

40
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: the streets. The squares have some bent, warped idea of

41
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: what street cred is so yeah, It's the most gangster

42
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: thing I ever did. This has been another Ice Cole
