Speaker 1: This is your boy in o R. E up his
Speaker 1: dj e FN and this is his drink chance, motherfucking
Speaker 1: conglomerate make up. And right now when we talk about
Speaker 1: leg because the thing about Drink Chats podcast, we said
Speaker 1: that we're gonna start out and we're gonna only uh
Speaker 1: interview legends, and you know we're straight away because we
Speaker 1: got Hollywood. You could say, you know, I'm gonna claiming
Speaker 1: we got a little Hollywood, but when the guests that
Speaker 1: we have tonight, there's no way a person could ever
Speaker 1: question he's a legend on it. He's came from the
Speaker 1: bottom the dirt U g K Underground when when the
Speaker 1: South was actually not even looked at. Now the South
Speaker 1: is the ship, but back then there was on the battlefield.
Speaker 1: There was on the battlefield. It was them an outcast,
Speaker 1: and they were frightening against the whole East coast, and
Speaker 1: they came in and they stood down. Right now, it's
Speaker 1: my honor to introduce my brother, my friend, one of
Speaker 1: the best assisting the works, one of the illest groups
Speaker 1: in the world. I'm talking about Bumby from U G. K. Less.
Speaker 1: I need I need every time I walk in the room.
Speaker 1: You need to be in a room in the room.
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna do it every time every artists walking
Speaker 1: on room. Just gonna introduce you. But listen, here's a deal, bun.
Speaker 1: And what I just said, this real ship because you
Speaker 1: came from the era where actually the people who actually
Speaker 1: frowned on the South. People didn't really want to look
Speaker 1: at people from the South and say, you guys are lyricists.
Speaker 1: So you guys are artists, you guys or whatever. And
Speaker 1: it was you guys and outcast. That's the only two
Speaker 1: groups I remember. I apologize if I am. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of a little groups that I remember. The frame
Speaker 1: of reference. I respected you know, there's definitely a lot
Speaker 1: of other people. Three six Field J, the Texas, the
Speaker 1: ghetto boys, I mean ghetto boys wrap records. You know
Speaker 1: you wrap a lot of out right now. Yeah you
Speaker 1: still records can sign no more they still wrapping's respect.
Speaker 1: That was that because you know back then they see
Speaker 1: New York. It's not running the game right now, and
Speaker 1: you know what, funk us we fucked up. But you
Speaker 1: gotta relax, like I like, you didn't like that we
Speaker 1: got more white people coming in. You know what beginning
Speaker 1: revolt checks it's going down to listen. So how did
Speaker 1: you feel in the beginning when when because you was
Speaker 1: against the text of time, you was against you was
Speaker 1: playing against the actual uh C. I mean you know
Speaker 1: back then it wasn't really a lot of money involved.
Speaker 1: So you as a rapper, what you wanted was like
Speaker 1: your respect, you know what I'm saying. You wanted to
Speaker 1: be around other rappers and had them been like, oh,
Speaker 1: y'all heard your ship. You're nice with it, you know,
Speaker 1: And niggas can admit it that if they want to
Speaker 1: or not. You know, they can say whether they want
Speaker 1: to or not. But you ultimately as an MC, no
Speaker 1: matter where you was from. Wanted to come to New
Speaker 1: York and have the people from New York that you
Speaker 1: looked up to acknowledge you as an MC. So for
Speaker 1: me in the early days, I just wanted to be
Speaker 1: able to when I sit in front of like Kane
Speaker 1: or g rap or Lord Finess or Caress one front
Speaker 1: of these people, you know what I'm saying, that they
Speaker 1: would be like, oh, Bumby, I heard of you. You nice.
Speaker 1: You know. It wasn't even guarantee you was gonna make
Speaker 1: no money and be famous or none of that. So
Speaker 1: for me, that was all we wanted was to be
Speaker 1: able to stand in front of the people that we
Speaker 1: looked up to and had them basic you know, tip
Speaker 1: your hat, tipped they hat to us and in case
Speaker 1: I don't know, if you don't know, we tipped our
Speaker 1: hat to your guy long time ago. And then one
Speaker 1: of my favorite songs in the world, and this is
Speaker 1: this is how you know this is really Look, this
Speaker 1: is me, it's me. It's not none of y'all, it's me,
Speaker 1: but one of my favorite songs. Going to then tell
Speaker 1: us my wife I love her. I'm so sorry. I
Speaker 1: kept I kept my phone on just for probable let's okay,
Speaker 1: but one of my favorite songs in the world, one
Speaker 1: of my favorite times and hip hop period, it's when
Speaker 1: Outcast and Eugi K got together and not only did
Speaker 1: you do a song, you did a video, you did
Speaker 1: the whole thing where it was like a wedding or
Speaker 1: some yeah, And it was crazy because at the time
Speaker 1: and even really to this day, like man, I'm a
Speaker 1: person for two man, you know, I sat back, I said, damn,
Speaker 1: I wanted to do something like that with Marv D.
Speaker 1: But we just never got it together. And there was
Speaker 1: a lot of times like Ugi Can and they all
Speaker 1: m j G. You know, there's a lot of songs
Speaker 1: we wanted to do. Please we want your all drink chats,
Speaker 1: Please come sit on the Scissor was actually was the
Speaker 1: first song from a group that you G K and
Speaker 1: three six Mafia was doing together. We were gonna be
Speaker 1: the underground Mafia. Oh, that would have been Sipping on Scissor.
Speaker 1: I don't know too many people know that. A couple
Speaker 1: of people might know that other records made Like a Pimp,
Speaker 1: so um, Sipping on Scissor was the record for their album,
Speaker 1: and the song Like a Pimp was a song for
Speaker 1: our album. We did them super Bowl weekend in Atlanta,
Speaker 1: but didn't make any kind of like an EP or projects.
Speaker 1: We never got definitely we never got that far in
Speaker 1: too because Pimp ended up getting locked up, so we
Speaker 1: never even got to finish the project coming back home.
Speaker 1: And then, like most people don't know that, the original
Speaker 1: version of Players Anthem was Us in three, So that's
Speaker 1: like the return actually of us getting back to underground
Speaker 1: mafia music, but that version wasn't clear, just sounds underground.
Speaker 1: I want to be down with Cold. I could never
Speaker 1: have been. I said women that, so you know, but
Speaker 1: I always kind of like, I always kind of like
Speaker 1: related to you more because although people don't know this,
Speaker 1: but Pip was kind of like the wild Car, and
Speaker 1: people think I'm the wild Call of the Croup, but
Speaker 1: in all actuality, it's camponed you and any other room
Speaker 1: when everybody when any other MC would probably be the
Speaker 1: wild Car. But I didn't compone in the room with idiot,
Speaker 1: didn't know the campone if I'm gonna because he's like
Speaker 1: the wilder of the wild brother. Okay, but so that
Speaker 1: was one of the first things I identified with because
Speaker 1: you know, Pimp was so outrageous, he was so you know,
Speaker 1: outspoken and then and then he will always protect you
Speaker 1: to It's not like he was gonna be outspoken to
Speaker 1: say you know me and Bud saying no, I'm speaking
Speaker 1: for my sound because he knew I knew a lot
Speaker 1: of people and to travel a lot. You know, Pemple's
Speaker 1: more of an introversy, and you know he kind of
Speaker 1: kept usself and this whole thing was like whatever issues
Speaker 1: he had, he didn't want me to feel like I
Speaker 1: had to fight his fights for him, Like he felt
Speaker 1: like he was mad enough to fight his own fight.
Speaker 1: But you know, I'm gonna be moving around and seeing people,
Speaker 1: so you're like, yo, I'll be trying to run up
Speaker 1: on b based on what I said. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, which I had a problem with. No way,
Speaker 1: That's why I still went anywhere I wanted to go.
Speaker 1: You know, anybody that know me and when they see me,
Speaker 1: I'm usually one day maybe one other dude, but we're
Speaker 1: not We're gonna move Yeah, well, I'm talking my younger years.
Speaker 1: You know, back when we was in my younger years,
Speaker 1: when we were back on I was like I didn't
Speaker 1: know that word younger years. So now let's not let's
Speaker 1: take it to that because said something that still bothers
Speaker 1: me to this day. Okay, said that Atlanta is shouldn't
Speaker 1: be considered the south right because of the time zone.
Speaker 1: To this day, that's still conflicts in my mind. I'm sure,
Speaker 1: I'm sure it doesn't make sense to everybody. Miami wouldn't
Speaker 1: because yeah, no, I'm sure, like I said, one of
Speaker 1: the basis everybody. But I think what Pep was trying
Speaker 1: to say, And I'm not trying to make any apologies
Speaker 1: for him, because people say, look, if I if I
Speaker 1: finished you with what I said, I apologize, but I'm
Speaker 1: not apologizing for what I said. You know what I'm saying. Um,
Speaker 1: But what Pep was trying to say, it was that,
Speaker 1: and it was real. At the time when you went
Speaker 1: to Atlanta, you didn't necessarily feel like you were in
Speaker 1: the South. Atlanta and Georgia were primarily felt like very
Speaker 1: southern areas. But at the time, Georgia had a large
Speaker 1: influxing people from New York and you know what, you know,
Speaker 1: if you drive down downtown to get by Underground Mall
Speaker 1: and all of that stuff, you would see dudes with
Speaker 1: timberlance on the block. You know, happening in Miami as well,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So it was just it
Speaker 1: wasn't anything against the city of Atlanta or anything like that.
Speaker 1: It was just like, yo, when you come, when you
Speaker 1: moved through the South, you're supposed to feel like you're
Speaker 1: in the South, but when you go to New York,
Speaker 1: you feel like you're in New York, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And but I mean, it was what it was.
Speaker 1: I have anybody felt about it, you know, we just
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just how he felt at the time.
Speaker 1: You guys, you g K. I just I don't know
Speaker 1: if you know, but I would like to express this
Speaker 1: expression is yous. Guys, was one of the first groups
Speaker 1: from the South that directly identified with New York, even
Speaker 1: though we were in pan we were doing that or
Speaker 1: exactly identifying, but we were exactly identifying. We tried to
Speaker 1: make ship as simple as possible for people and try
Speaker 1: to align the ship that we was going through with
Speaker 1: the ship other people was going through. So we understand
Speaker 1: the world as a ghetto, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So the really the only difference in most of these
Speaker 1: hoods is the close and the slang. Once you get
Speaker 1: past that. You're gonna understand everything that's happening in that neighborhood,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, And you don't know how
Speaker 1: to move in that neighborhood. Okay, they winning gamester nights
Speaker 1: on the West Coast. They're winning rebox in New Orleans.
Speaker 1: You know, they're wearing timberlands in New York. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's different. Clokay what they mean? Buck fits.
Speaker 1: I feel like you're racist, you know, I'm sure you
Speaker 1: know what the grat is so true? We really do here. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: and in the South, Like you see a dude walking
Speaker 1: around in the South with the pants of the tumbles
Speaker 1: from here, but we just wanted to identify with that,
Speaker 1: so they're okay. So once we go and see these things,
Speaker 1: we realize, okay, outside of the clothes and and the
Speaker 1: and the talk, the world is a ghetto. So we're
Speaker 1: just gonna talk about the ship that we see every
Speaker 1: day and half and and just assume that that's pretty
Speaker 1: much the ship everybody's seeing every day, you know. And
Speaker 1: that's my question to you, because you guys being from
Speaker 1: the South and you guys from the real South, and
Speaker 1: I don't mean that any other part the South what
Speaker 1: we to call it deep South. We like to call
Speaker 1: the deep shop Deep Shop. Like when I'm listening to
Speaker 1: the Pepsie and I'm listening to where he's coming from
Speaker 1: and he's saying that it's a different time zone all that.
Speaker 1: How did you know that if you spoke about your hood,
Speaker 1: the world will relates to that. I didn't before you
Speaker 1: answer that, Before you answer that, because I never made
Speaker 1: the Worry for for the world. I made the war
Speaker 1: report from our hood. I can't believe Europe when I
Speaker 1: go out there and these white people like you. I
Speaker 1: didn't make this for you. But and I think everybody's
Speaker 1: like that, Norry. I think I think you know, you
Speaker 1: make your first album for the hood, you make your
Speaker 1: second album for the world, and then if you would
Speaker 1: get that far, you make you start making music for yourself.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. No, but that's what it is, man. Again,
Speaker 1: That's all you want to do because you don't really
Speaker 1: know if anybody's gonna be checking for you outside of
Speaker 1: your neighborhood. But you don't. Nigga's in the hoods waiting
Speaker 1: to listen just to see the case you sunk up. Really,
Speaker 1: that's what it is. So it's like, yeah, I gotta
Speaker 1: make sure I stund hard so nigga's gonnam not playing,
Speaker 1: so that when I go out and be like I'm
Speaker 1: from the niggas, no back into dun them, that when
Speaker 1: I leave, I'm rapping that because if you don't rap home, right,
Speaker 1: you can't go back. At least that's where I'm from.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm I don't know anybody else. Now,
Speaker 1: Wrap a Lot Records, Yes, J Prince hold one of
Speaker 1: the most legendary relations ever. And you guys, how how
Speaker 1: was that to even be affiliated with Rappings? It was
Speaker 1: a trip because when we when we went to rap
Speaker 1: a Lot, it was it was in the midst of
Speaker 1: everything going crazy with job Regor's Rap a Lot. They
Speaker 1: came and tried to sign you g kn't really was
Speaker 1: already know. He was like he wanted to bring us
Speaker 1: over the rap a Lot and we was like, well
Speaker 1: we number one in all the situation. We don't want
Speaker 1: to go and have to be behind the ghetto boys
Speaker 1: in scar face. That was one thing. Pemple was like,
Speaker 1: we go sign with anybody. They already got their roster
Speaker 1: and we got to find all the spot. But if
Speaker 1: we stay in all the spot we number one on
Speaker 1: our roster that we didn't never got to fight for position.
Speaker 1: So but then once we got into the job system,
Speaker 1: we realized we were just in their roster. They wouldn't
Speaker 1: be gad about it. So we just you know, we
Speaker 1: operated in a way where it was like we don't
Speaker 1: get the support from the label. We don't get the
Speaker 1: back and from the label. We don't get real money
Speaker 1: from the label, visual support market and none of that ship.
Speaker 1: So we're just gonna move like we ain't even on
Speaker 1: no label. We're gonna make sure we're doing shows. We're
Speaker 1: gonna make sure we still doing records with motherfucker's and
Speaker 1: still trying to get money whatever, and until later us
Speaker 1: we can't do something, we're just gonna just keep independent grinding.
Speaker 1: So for us, we spent a lot of years arguing
Speaker 1: with the record company and we would would literally eat
Speaker 1: off of like doing features and pimp making beats for
Speaker 1: niggers and just being out on the road and doing
Speaker 1: shows and ship y' y'all on job before yeah y'all.
Speaker 1: Original record company was Big Time Records. That was the
Speaker 1: independent label we signed to, and then they did a
Speaker 1: deal with Jive and ninety and like May and ninety two,
Speaker 1: and we stayed on Jove Records all the way up
Speaker 1: until after Pimp passed away. Um, but our solo albums
Speaker 1: was with rap a lot, and it came at a
Speaker 1: time where like Pimp was locked up and you know,
Speaker 1: we were stifled by the A company and we just
Speaker 1: needed to get the message out. And so j Prince
Speaker 1: was the one that that helped me get into position.
Speaker 1: Because what I said I wanted to do a solo album.
Speaker 1: I was like, no, we're not working with that and
Speaker 1: Pimper and Jail and he ain't making the music and
Speaker 1: he ain't on the record, Like the baby saying Pippers
Speaker 1: the ship. You you just kind of like the sidekick
Speaker 1: and she's not gonna pop up without you, and so
Speaker 1: and so I left and went to Asylum and put
Speaker 1: out a solo record, sold seven fifty independent. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Let me tell you something, as a
Speaker 1: person that's up and that ain't no streams down over
Speaker 1: that that CD person as a two man group, a
Speaker 1: part of a two man group, the love that you
Speaker 1: guys have for each other was something that I admired.
Speaker 1: It's something that I treasure. It's something that I looked
Speaker 1: out for. And if here's the crazy ship and was
Speaker 1: gonna tell you I was the biggest you g K friend,
Speaker 1: But Pimp C was the person he that's not going
Speaker 1: to do it, just do a record with you. He
Speaker 1: asked the question you. He has the question you. He
Speaker 1: has to hang out with you, and I kid you.
Speaker 1: Look look, he told me I'm doing a record with
Speaker 1: your noise, but he still wanted to hang out. And
Speaker 1: we said that, and we tell him we hung out
Speaker 1: for our like from like seven o'clock and even until
Speaker 1: like easy three and the more easily three. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: but that's not the time that I know. But that
Speaker 1: that was the thing. What um, what pimp is what
Speaker 1: I respected is he heard about me, he heard I
Speaker 1: was a real nigger, but he still wanted to meet me,
Speaker 1: and he still wanted to look at me face to face.
Speaker 1: And that's the thing is I take that to me
Speaker 1: since today, like you know, anybody who's you know, I
Speaker 1: don't give I could love your record, but now I
Speaker 1: want to hang out with you know, nine records, that's
Speaker 1: recording hip hop that required two people. Ain't even got
Speaker 1: the two people in the same room. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, it's probably more more than that. You know,
Speaker 1: more motherfucker's actually do records, have a hit record and
Speaker 1: don't even meet the mother to the videos from we
Speaker 1: come from an hour that even if I wanted to
Speaker 1: send y'all the record, I can't send you right now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I gotta come get it. I gotta go. I'm coming
Speaker 1: with you at you gotta come to mind, because that's
Speaker 1: the only way we can physically do this. Otherwise I
Speaker 1: gotta send my whole record. And that definitely has a
Speaker 1: change the dynamics of the way, you know, the music
Speaker 1: comes out of the well for one, and you for one.
Speaker 1: You don't get into a situation where like nowadays, dudes
Speaker 1: get into situations and do songs and they'd be deep
Speaker 1: in the motherfucking life and don't even really know who
Speaker 1: they're fucking with, and then something happens and you start
Speaker 1: to see the true character these dudes. But your name
Speaker 1: is already tied in with that person because it might
Speaker 1: not be your biggest but it might be their biggest, right,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, So now you're tied into
Speaker 1: whatever that motherfucker got going on. Where's back then you
Speaker 1: actually got to meet the motherfucker and see who they
Speaker 1: were and know who they were about. You's been able
Speaker 1: to call and be like yo, these days, you would

Speaker 1: That's Champs c A A MPs. Drink chance Baby. Let's
Speaker 1: say like we've been to do a song with Norris,
Speaker 1: so I can call somebody from New York and be
Speaker 1: like hey and he really oh yeah, yeah, he wright
Speaker 1: with they'd be over there that you you don't be
Speaker 1: knowing who nobody is now, Like I don't know. Oh,
Speaker 1: you see a situation where motherucker got beef and you
Speaker 1: just noticed they did man records with that person just
Speaker 1: a year ago or six months ago, and now they
Speaker 1: beat for like a motherfucker because they never built up.
Speaker 1: That's what I never understood, because that ship is a
Speaker 1: lot of That ship is so easy to square either
Speaker 1: on either on they drinking drink I'm drinking where like
Speaker 1: beef is very easy to squash, very easy to pop off.
Speaker 1: Like most of these people go to the same ship,
Speaker 1: invited to the same ship. So if you really wanted
Speaker 1: to get asked them and with social media and you
Speaker 1: can neither send somebody at d M or you can
Speaker 1: tag get phone I get anybody phone up. I'm sure
Speaker 1: anybody could get my phone up if they wanted to
Speaker 1: hard enough. So all that talk and in flexing and
Speaker 1: ship on like the Graham or whatever you want to
Speaker 1: call it, all that ship like that, that automatically tells
Speaker 1: me that I feel like nobody real in the situation.
Speaker 1: That's just me from the outside looking in. Because any
Speaker 1: time I have asked, any time I ever had, I
Speaker 1: saw a situation where it was wrong. This is not
Speaker 1: my staff, this is not where it was on like
Speaker 1: people was moving on it because I don't think people
Speaker 1: realized like what he said on the reference rooms, more
Speaker 1: fuckers didn't really make like we're playing. They wouldn't. If
Speaker 1: they could get at you, they would get at you.
Speaker 1: If they couldn't, then maybe they might recollect make a
Speaker 1: regular letter. They you know, they're trying to it, but
Speaker 1: they were actively trying to get at motherfucker's you know,
Speaker 1: not one of the things off top. I gotta I
Speaker 1: gotta bring up, I gotta talk about it. It's trail.
Speaker 1: Your brothers bring that word trail to the game. Trail
Speaker 1: is overused right now. These guys are using it, they're
Speaker 1: not really understanding where they got it from. And it's
Speaker 1: a problem now. Like we at first speak about it
Speaker 1: at first, like sling right, Like it's very hard to
Speaker 1: like quote copyright slang. I've never caught right in my slam.
Speaker 1: But but then people get to trying to capitalize, the monopolize,
Speaker 1: and that one we had a problem because now you're
Speaker 1: trying to make some money off of something that I
Speaker 1: wasn't even trying to make money off of, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Yeah, exactly, So like we had to
Speaker 1: copyright ship just to protect it protected, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, And then you still get people trying to
Speaker 1: make money. Yeah, but then people still assault the brand,
Speaker 1: and like I just had a meeting with some young kids,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, And then there they love
Speaker 1: the city, they love the culture, and they're trying to
Speaker 1: do something to represent the culture. When I see that,
Speaker 1: I know that it's not somebody trying to appropriate my
Speaker 1: ship and appropriate the culture. I can work with you,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Let's do a shirt together.
Speaker 1: But then when I see people that are old enough
Speaker 1: to know, right, because the kids I'm talking about like
Speaker 1: they don't know. But when I see like a thirty five,
Speaker 1: thirty six year old motherfucker out here trying to sell stuff,
Speaker 1: you know. I tried to let a lot of things
Speaker 1: wash over because I didn't think it would be as
Speaker 1: aggressive as it was. But with social media and like
Speaker 1: the especially especially the Instagram, I ain't trased it with.
Speaker 1: I tried with associate half of it, but then people
Speaker 1: started becoming very like actively trying to just steal from
Speaker 1: the brand that had no good I'm keeping neat, Oh
Speaker 1: you keeping neat. Keep And then you know, the wife
Speaker 1: was like, look, this is becoming too much. People are
Speaker 1: just doing too much. You know what I'm saying, They're
Speaker 1: doing too much. Like I was going to shoot a
Speaker 1: couple of people for you probably wouldn't even call to you,
Speaker 1: just did it. And I'm like when it comes to
Speaker 1: music and that kind of stuff, I don't mind that,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Just make sure you about
Speaker 1: that if we run up. If we run up, I
Speaker 1: ain't saying run up to fight you. But if I'm
Speaker 1: ever in the room with you, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: If you choose to call yourself that, just please come
Speaker 1: across as this. You know what I'm saying. Like if you,
Speaker 1: if you, if you get on the regular, I know
Speaker 1: if I do a regular than Trill was always more
Speaker 1: than just a word. It was a way of life.
Speaker 1: It was something that kind of spoke to a way
Speaker 1: of life. So it was about the way that you
Speaker 1: carried yourself. Triill originally started in the Texas, in the
Speaker 1: penitentiary system. You know what, that's the world. So that
Speaker 1: word came home to p a from the penitentiary and eight.
Speaker 1: So it was a word that I'm sorry from to
Speaker 1: put off the Texas. That's so the homie came home
Speaker 1: East Coast when you say Pennsylvania, so the holy Little
Speaker 1: Block came home from jail, and Little Block started talking,
Speaker 1: started talking about true and he was one of the
Speaker 1: first people to really use that term. And deviend Actually
Speaker 1: a lot of people on the west side of town
Speaker 1: started using it, and then people and put out in
Speaker 1: general just started using it. So when we started making music,
Speaker 1: we were like, well, this is a word that not
Speaker 1: only represents who we are and where we're from, but
Speaker 1: we'll also separate us from everybody that's already in hip hop,
Speaker 1: people in Dallas. But it was separate. It was separated
Speaker 1: from Mary. Yeah, so it wasn't our thing, but it was.
Speaker 1: It was always in terms of where we were from,
Speaker 1: you know. So we always give credit to the homes.
Speaker 1: And that's why when we copyrighted, it was never to
Speaker 1: just go out and sell T shirts and merchant none
Speaker 1: of that ship, but to protect the integrity of this ship,
Speaker 1: because I'm responsible for that ship. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: When they see niggas misusing tril, they don't get mad
Speaker 1: at them, they get mad at me. Like you out there,
Speaker 1: like we hear the projects, we can't get it. You
Speaker 1: gotta go to l A and check rockdas. You gotta
Speaker 1: go over to these places to check these dudes. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. No, damn, that's that's very true.
Speaker 1: That's the obligation, you know what I'm saying. And so
Speaker 1: and I can get busy and called upself. So my
Speaker 1: wife is a real good rounded she'd be like, yo,
Speaker 1: somebody trying it again, let's pick up your wife. What
Speaker 1: I'm saying, But because why did like yo, if they
Speaker 1: if they eat, that's money out of our podcast. And
Speaker 1: that's why we weren't even trying to get She like,
Speaker 1: we ain't out here like exploiting it. So if they're
Speaker 1: gonna exploit it, it's not right. I think I agree
Speaker 1: with your White be the shooter's number before we leave.
Speaker 1: No White used to shoot. No, no, no, no no, you
Speaker 1: can't have wife to go to jail. We're gonna give
Speaker 1: them the shore. Gonna shoot. Shouldn't get me to get
Speaker 1: to go to jail. But listen, and here's the thing, bun,
Speaker 1: And I'm sorry, I'm going to a little dark place,
Speaker 1: but we recently just lost Prodigy real and the thing
Speaker 1: about that is, uh, your partner, your two man. So
Speaker 1: what could be your advice to have it right now?
Speaker 1: It's just the first thing you gotta do is support
Speaker 1: the family as much as you can. That's it, right.
Speaker 1: And now sometimes the family doesn't want to be supported
Speaker 1: right sometimes because yeah right, And sometimes you know they
Speaker 1: have an idea of what they want to do, like
Speaker 1: with Pamp's wife for example, Um, she had an idea
Speaker 1: of what she thought her husband's legacy should be. People
Speaker 1: think that I should take the lead and have the
Speaker 1: idea of what his legacy should be started. For one second,
Speaker 1: everybody wanted you to to to k but but you
Speaker 1: know how much you respected Pam. It's not It's deeper
Speaker 1: than that. It's not even just it's deeper than the
Speaker 1: respect I have a pimp. Should anything happen to me,
Speaker 1: right or wrong, I would hope that people support my wife.
Speaker 1: That's all I'm ask you know what I'm saying. If
Speaker 1: if she's right or she's wrong, if she wants to
Speaker 1: run it into the ground, then let her do that.
Speaker 1: But please, like, just just just support her. Right. If
Speaker 1: she don't know, she don't know, no better try to
Speaker 1: tell her. If she don't want to listen, just support
Speaker 1: as much as you as much as you can write
Speaker 1: without compromise yourself. That that's all you can do, you know. Um,
Speaker 1: Like I said, people, Um, the wife has an idea,
Speaker 1: and maybe the kids have an idea, and maybe the
Speaker 1: mother has an idea. Different people have different ideas of
Speaker 1: how they feel the legacy should be maintained. The consumer,
Speaker 1: the listener to the fan base because they don't know
Speaker 1: as much about his personal life, assumes that the closest
Speaker 1: person to him is meet. So people always like, yo, Bunny,
Speaker 1: I know you got pimpsy versus I know you've got
Speaker 1: U G K songs. And I have to educate people
Speaker 1: about how that works, like, no, the estate has everything.
Speaker 1: Once passes away, then the estate gets all them, Like
Speaker 1: my I mean, I got forty two songs. I don't
Speaker 1: have any pimpsy music on. It's not because I don't
Speaker 1: want it, because it's much. It's it's more profitable to
Speaker 1: the estate in their hands than it is in my hand,
Speaker 1: you know, And we want them to eat. That's what
Speaker 1: we want, you know, So we you know, whether we agree,
Speaker 1: look no, but it's just being real because and I
Speaker 1: gotta leave by Apple because because you got you got
Speaker 1: seventeen point versus I've never used one. You just don't
Speaker 1: want to be And the other thing is that you know,
Speaker 1: and if too many people lean on the legacy, then
Speaker 1: they can't it can't rise, right. If everybody's holding onto it,
Speaker 1: then they can't really rise with the angels like it's
Speaker 1: supposed to. So it's my job to keep ship off
Speaker 1: his name keep dirt off his name and to keep
Speaker 1: people from attaching themselves or something that they really want
Speaker 1: to part to. You know, you you don't want to
Speaker 1: talking about bitch ass nigger. Yea nigger. Now let's take it.
Speaker 1: I know we spoke about it a little bit earlier,
Speaker 1: but Biga man still international calling car any country I
Speaker 1: go when they sue, because they sue jay Z every
Speaker 1: year for like every do they sue y'all? So here's
Speaker 1: so it's what happened. This is this is what was
Speaker 1: crazy about the whole thing. When we did the song.
Speaker 1: What was like, Yo, I want to buy the mission
Speaker 1: on this and we were like, he wanted to buy
Speaker 1: our publishing on the show, and so we were like,
Speaker 1: what do you mean. He was like, Yo, we kind
Speaker 1: of want to keep all of this. And at the time,
Speaker 1: this was a very strange beat. This was not something
Speaker 1: that pimp really wanted to do. And they were and
Speaker 1: they were really they were going towards the Mariah record.
Speaker 1: At the time, he had a record with Mariah and
Speaker 1: now I was supposed to be the one. This was
Speaker 1: like something in a row. So they but they had
Speaker 1: they were cash flush. So and he's like, yeah, we
Speaker 1: want to buy you out on this, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like fully, and we was in this place
Speaker 1: where like Yo're like yo, You're like, we'll take it,
Speaker 1: you know, And then the song becomes literally you have
Speaker 1: to understand at one point, this is the biggest record
Speaker 1: in the world, Like I'm looking at the B d
Speaker 1: S numbers and it's like five thousand, seven thousand, eleven thousand.
Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like this with anything period. And
Speaker 1: then my name is attached to it, and like we
Speaker 1: start trying to do the math. We don't even know
Speaker 1: the intricacies of this ship, but they start trying to
Speaker 1: like let's just say five cents, nigger, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But we start trying to do the math
Speaker 1: on it's like yo's it's a lot of money, and
Speaker 1: we're up on the table. And then of course Pim
Speaker 1: gets locked up at the lawsuit because the lawsuit doesn't
Speaker 1: happen until pimp goes to jail, Okay, so then the
Speaker 1: lawsuit happens, and then the money is sucked up anyway
Speaker 1: because happy group is locked up. So then it's like yo,
Speaker 1: they getting shoot, Like Yo, we ain't get nothing. We
Speaker 1: didn't get ship they can't get nothing from so they
Speaker 1: go to prison and they get the lawyer and do
Speaker 1: to that position, like, yo, we worked for High my nigger.
Speaker 1: We got nothing to do with that. And then they
Speaker 1: come to me, I do work you know, didn't work
Speaker 1: for Hi. So we still got the shows, we still
Speaker 1: got the increase in fan base, We still taking ahead,
Speaker 1: and it was beautiful, like I want a lie, Like
Speaker 1: at the time, that was way more money than we
Speaker 1: had gotten paid for wrap. Let me just take something
Speaker 1: the ship. I don't know if you know, and you know,
Speaker 1: jay Z's not paying me at all um to say this,
Speaker 1: but I remember jay Z going to Angie Martinez and
Speaker 1: going to like DJ enough saying that, like and they said,
Speaker 1: why did you put you g K on the joint?
Speaker 1: And he said, huk yo, he wouldn't big y'all up
Speaker 1: so crazy. And I don't know if y'all understood that.
Speaker 1: We see so a lot of people don't know that
Speaker 1: we got the call before there was Pimp C was
Speaker 1: actually supposed to be on just a week ago. We're
Speaker 1: too short, so but this was in the middle of
Speaker 1: the East Coast West Coast beef and Jay wasn't leaving
Speaker 1: New York. So when we called Pimpther like I want
Speaker 1: you on this record, people was like, yeah, just come
Speaker 1: on Atlanta. I got the studio at the house. We
Speaker 1: can knock it out of the house. Like Jay like,
Speaker 1: I'm not leaving New York right now. So peoples like ship,
Speaker 1: I ain't even the South right now? Get the and
Speaker 1: the never happened, and then we got the call again
Speaker 1: um for Big Pempon and then it eventually it eventually
Speaker 1: came to get because see me, me as being a
Speaker 1: hip hop fan, I was aware of U g K was,
Speaker 1: But for me seeing a person that's a quote unquote
Speaker 1: above me and begging people up like that, I was like, damn,
Speaker 1: because you know, I don't know if people know. Like
Speaker 1: Juvenile's first feature was with me, the band's first feature
Speaker 1: was with me. I've been bigging up the South were
Speaker 1: first feature. Yeah, Up the South for years? Uh E.
Speaker 1: I can you going on Little Ways, Little Away and
Speaker 1: cash money for me? I definitely by J beat me.
Speaker 1: You ain't gonna pack this, but you were super dug
Speaker 1: of the game. And that's what I'm trying. Look at
Speaker 1: that that good my bad rock No, But I'm like,
Speaker 1: that's that's the last. The thing is that that that
Speaker 1: feature of that class correboration from the South, because I
Speaker 1: always felt like it's no difference, and who's the fun.
Speaker 1: The world's agether. The world is agether. And if you notice,
Speaker 1: if you look at all those names, all those those
Speaker 1: artists that hooked up, those people represent the hoods and
Speaker 1: not just people that are popping. Those are people that
Speaker 1: represent the hood. So it's not a mistake that Nori
Speaker 1: and EU GK makes a record a camera and U
Speaker 1: g K makes a record that little Wayne and makes
Speaker 1: a record that's not It shouldn't be a surprise to anybody.
Speaker 1: We speak to the same people, just in different places,
Speaker 1: in different accents. That's the only difference. My nigga. Now
Speaker 1: when you look at it's Travis Scott from Travis Scotts, Houston.
Speaker 1: He's and he tries to put it in the music.
Speaker 1: And if you're from Houston, you listen to it. He's
Speaker 1: saying everything to let you know, like he's on the
Speaker 1: new um this is a record. He's like, I'm from
Speaker 1: it's that Most City that side because he's from Missouri City,
Speaker 1: but in the Hood they call it Most City. So
Speaker 1: he's trying to do it, but he doesn't make the
Speaker 1: music that's automatically identified with You know, he came in
Speaker 1: the game in Atlanta, signed the TI I That's how
Speaker 1: he came in. Yeah traffic is originally Yeah. Tia always
Speaker 1: said that that he always has a good time in
Speaker 1: the studio and gets along with everybody. The only person
Speaker 1: he's ever disagreed with the studio is Travis, because Travis
Speaker 1: has a very clear idea of how his music should
Speaker 1: sound and he know it too. If you listen to
Speaker 1: it like nobody, it doesn't sound like anything else anybody
Speaker 1: is doing. And that's why most people don't connect him
Speaker 1: to music, because he's so closely and social associated with
Speaker 1: Kanye and you know what and t I. But but
Speaker 1: he's not from either one of those places. He's bred
Speaker 1: from a different place. But that's the one thing music
Speaker 1: did you you identify it with? It means no, no,
Speaker 1: not at all. But I'm I'm from a different error,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So so in different places,
Speaker 1: in a different just a different I'm a different city.
Speaker 1: But even more so, it's the time difference in the
Speaker 1: generational gap. And I like Travis because I don't want
Speaker 1: motherfucker's to feel like they gotta lean or that they
Speaker 1: need to lean on Pimp C and DJ Screw forever.
Speaker 1: Like that was a great time. It was a beautiful
Speaker 1: time for the city. But you can't. But I'm just saying, like,
Speaker 1: the city can't grow if we don't move past June seven.
Speaker 1: You don't say dem birthday. It's a good thing to celebrate,
Speaker 1: and it's a great thing to acknowledge, but we got
Speaker 1: to show the growths past that. Yes, this is what
Speaker 1: when when Screw is looking down on us and people
Speaker 1: looking down on us, they don't want to they don't
Speaker 1: want us to keep concentrating on what they did. They're
Speaker 1: waiting for one of us to pick up the goddamn
Speaker 1: for time. So like, and I'm back in the lab
Speaker 1: now because I sat around for four years and I
Speaker 1: was like, I'm waiting to see who's gonna do what.
Speaker 1: And then I realized, like, Nigga, you the o G
Speaker 1: You can't expect eighteen. You know, Nigga's twenty one year old.
Speaker 1: Niggas twenty four. You not not to represent me, but
Speaker 1: but to save their generation. Older heads have always given
Speaker 1: younger heads game, but now it's just young heads given
Speaker 1: young heads games. So it's the blind leading the blind,
Speaker 1: and we got comfortable houses and cars and we can
Speaker 1: sit around and complain like our children is the only
Speaker 1: children that we need to worry about. But when m
Speaker 1: C has come to me and say, yo, yo, you
Speaker 1: raised me, I have agation to that. MC's you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, that's an obligation. When people come up
Speaker 1: and say, yo, y'all music raised us. Y'all niggas told
Speaker 1: me this, then that means that they're still looking for
Speaker 1: whatever I gave them. And if I was the only
Speaker 1: person they gave it to him them, then I need
Speaker 1: to beat the motherfucker giving it to him now. And
Speaker 1: that's why we think that goddamn bun bund you got responsibility. No,
Speaker 1: we all do. We all do. Especially we ain't good.
Speaker 1: That's the reality. Especially we ain't good. I'm gonna throw
Speaker 1: him more on you than me. I got you, I
Speaker 1: got you, because you know why, bun Like, we can't
Speaker 1: save everybody. We gotta try to save somebody, so you
Speaker 1: can't go back and save the whole host some of them,
Speaker 1: some of them don't want to say anymore than what's
Speaker 1: being done. They want women to take care of them,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, So they on some other ship. Anyway,
Speaker 1: we have to come. But you might not agree with this,
Speaker 1: but I say that our generation. I say because of
Speaker 1: the age group, our generation dropped the ball. No, it's
Speaker 1: sting at some point, you know. I'm gonna tell you
Speaker 1: what happened. First of all, people got scared of catching
Speaker 1: the cases that they knew they were getting into, so
Speaker 1: they started putting drugs and guns and young niggas and
Speaker 1: hands that were under eighteen that they knew wouldn't necessarily
Speaker 1: get real time. But what they did was stop the
Speaker 1: opportunity to progress. Right. So then young niggas got older.
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna tell you another thing, because nobody want
Speaker 1: to talk about I'm glad we're talking about this on
Speaker 1: dream chat. There's a lot of niggas that went into
Speaker 1: houses and manipulated women for sex and money and put
Speaker 1: them on drugs. And little niggas sat in those houses
Speaker 1: and watch niggers do that, and out they're old enough
Speaker 1: and they remember what you did to their mom. That's
Speaker 1: why young Donna respect what I say identified with but
Speaker 1: it's exact part of why this is one of the
Speaker 1: reasons why, because they gave they put cases on them
Speaker 1: that they knew your niggas would never shake. They got
Speaker 1: montas that put credit on their name that they can't
Speaker 1: and now they got niggas in their life in these
Speaker 1: houses putting values that they can't shape. But stop right there.
Speaker 1: But this here's the I want you to finish your ship.
Speaker 1: But I've seen a meme the other day and they said,
Speaker 1: how the fuck you mad at mumble rap? You so
Speaker 1: crack to their moms and the ship. Let me tell
Speaker 1: you something, mumble wrap is. I don't even like that term.
Speaker 1: I don't even like young niggas. I don't like nobody
Speaker 1: putting a term on nigga because, to be honest, just
Speaker 1: being real, twenty years ago, twenty five years ago, when
Speaker 1: they didn't understand the Southern slang and the twin and
Speaker 1: the way we bent our words, but they could have
Speaker 1: called that, so that ain't no difference with that. And
Speaker 1: I tell you, I tell I tell that you, thank you.
Speaker 1: I tell people all the time, man, y'all need to
Speaker 1: get offended at that ship. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: They should be offended about that ship. They shouldn't take
Speaker 1: if they want to take it and reclaim it and
Speaker 1: and shoot on the people that did it. Then that's fine,
Speaker 1: but they need to be offended by that because that
Speaker 1: when people say, your mum, and that means they really
Speaker 1: don't want to take the time and listen to what
Speaker 1: you got to say. That's what that me. That's all
Speaker 1: that tell me, because I know what they're talking about.
Speaker 1: When you first listen to a young thug record and
Speaker 1: you never heard it before, you gotta bag it up
Speaker 1: and listen to it again, and you gotta wait until
Speaker 1: you figure out, Okay, wait a minute, there's a pattern
Speaker 1: to this. There's he's saying words, but I don't normally
Speaker 1: hear these words bent like this. I don't hear hear
Speaker 1: him something like this. They're usually not inflected in this tone,
Speaker 1: on this syllable, So I don't. I didn't know that's
Speaker 1: what he was saying because I ain't never heard that
Speaker 1: word said like that, right right exactly, and I didn't.
Speaker 1: Once you get it, you're like, oh, Nick, this is
Speaker 1: you know when yeah, exa, And it takes a while
Speaker 1: to figure out what to me goes the same. Once
Speaker 1: you figure out, right, yo, these dudes are killing it.
Speaker 1: And that's what we're trying to do at Drink Chaps
Speaker 1: with volt TV audio boom, audio boom. What we're trying
Speaker 1: to do is we're trying to we don't want to
Speaker 1: school people on hip hop. We wanna we wanna give
Speaker 1: you our version of hip hop. Want you don't want
Speaker 1: to sound, you don't want to like blind, We're gonna
Speaker 1: send it. But this is the deal. Here's the deals around.
Speaker 1: Here's a deal. Here's a deal. You know, um, you
Speaker 1: know our of all TV, we got great people. We've
Speaker 1: got people from Queens that work there. We got people
Speaker 1: from motherfucking everywhere that worked there. And you know what
Speaker 1: it is, here's the beautiful part about it. If we
Speaker 1: all representing the same culture. It's hip hop, and you
Speaker 1: know what, our version might be different, their version might
Speaker 1: be different. But the thing gets as long as we
Speaker 1: wrapping the hip hop, we didn't we didn't know, that's
Speaker 1: the reality. We didn't know. I sat in Texas, I
Speaker 1: looved in New York on TV and I just didn't know.
Speaker 1: You know, people say in New York with Texas on
Speaker 1: TV looking at Dallas and then like that, and they
Speaker 1: didn't know. We all hear A little deserved was a drink.
Speaker 1: We look at London and we looked at London and
Speaker 1: we don't even black people were getting drunk. That's what
Speaker 1: I thought, you know, you know some of it, like
Speaker 1: Sarah was, yeah, look at and that's the thing, real talk.
Speaker 1: We were never telling people what it was. Somebody gave
Speaker 1: it away in the end of you I'm not gonna,
Speaker 1: I'm not here to blast them. They know who they are.
Speaker 1: Definitely need but they're they're a good friend and they
Speaker 1: didn't they didn't realize what they were doing. But but
Speaker 1: the understanding between everybody's like, we're not gonna just actually
Speaker 1: say what this is. But then somebody actually said it
Speaker 1: and then it kind of became what it was. But
Speaker 1: it was never just us because Philly Niggas was wanted
Speaker 1: at the same that's how well we know, like, well,
Speaker 1: if you want to talk about that Mississippi, Alabama Nigga
Speaker 1: said yellow too, and Tennessee, so you're in Tennessee, Niggas
Speaker 1: talk about scissor. That wasn't really purple, that wasn't red, sir,
Speaker 1: that was jealous. That was the activists, activists active. This
Speaker 1: is what they sell now. Because the original sur brand
Speaker 1: was called bar b a r E. So when big
Speaker 1: most things about the bar Baby and we rap about
Speaker 1: sipping ball, that's what we talked about because the original brand,
Speaker 1: pharmaceutical brand that sold it was a company called bar
Speaker 1: B A r r E. And that's where the name
Speaker 1: came from. So people still say sipping ball, but they're
Speaker 1: not really sipping ball. They're probably sipping activists. And what
Speaker 1: we used to sip was like sweet because they're early
Speaker 1: medicine to be tight. I don't even know, don't sipping.
Speaker 1: And that's why we had the screw tapes and the
Speaker 1: music slowed down like that to try to excre my schemes.
Speaker 1: But we never knew that ship was gonna We never
Speaker 1: expected that ship to really get past where we were.
Speaker 1: We didn't speak for anybody to understand. And now it's
Speaker 1: so big. Even if you were the screw getting a
Speaker 1: just old Ward before Justice, they had to make they
Speaker 1: had to literally make a category for him because they
Speaker 1: created an entirely new styllar dj wow. But they gave
Speaker 1: it and the awards were like a ring I think
Speaker 1: I got just gave me a little like a boom
Speaker 1: box that he made it just crip. Yeah, she was dope.
Speaker 1: It was my favorite or whatever. I remember being there
Speaker 1: watching Slave slap Pudgy p with the plaque. We definitely
Speaker 1: here about this, but let's get into it. Oh that
Speaker 1: was me. So the only people after just old wards
Speaker 1: from the South that year was me, and I think
Speaker 1: was me and killing Mike. I don't know. It's a
Speaker 1: year slag slap Puggy, but Puggy pa Puggy, I don't
Speaker 1: know pug It was a DJ from Yeah, it was
Speaker 1: Puggy PJ from someone, I'm not sure. But he had
Speaker 1: been talking greasy about slave. So Slay had just won
Speaker 1: his award and went off to like sway Slave was
Speaker 1: hitting him. That's what I'm talking about, my twin. So
Speaker 1: he had just won his award and it went to
Speaker 1: the back to so he was doing. So he like
Speaker 1: get in the press like woooo. Pudgy goes up and
Speaker 1: I don't know if he performed or one or something,
Speaker 1: but he was on stage and he said some slick
Speaker 1: ship and Slay moved immediately, and so the whole area
Speaker 1: got crazy. And the only nigga I know is killing Mike,
Speaker 1: and I'm the only nigga he know. So he got
Speaker 1: a tube by four. I gotta five hundred and we're
Speaker 1: back to back like we're getting out of here. We're
Speaker 1: going on because ain't nobody know who he is. If
Speaker 1: you didn't come with who, you fight with you, finn swing,
Speaker 1: that's how I'm moving if you if you ain't come
Speaker 1: with me, if you ain't come with me, and you
Speaker 1: between where I'm trying to get to, we're fnna move you.
Speaker 1: And so we realizing immediately in the moments going down,
Speaker 1: and they just kind of happened like that. But if
Speaker 1: they it was open about maybe five seven minutes. It
Speaker 1: happened real quick. But it was funny. That was funny. Drama,
Speaker 1: especially the little Sid is the drama king. He not
Speaker 1: only plays drama, he addresses drama. Addresses drama. Now. One
Speaker 1: of the best times in my life was when I
Speaker 1: hung out with both of you brothers together and I
Speaker 1: bring you out of that frak city. This is my
Speaker 1: first time I left fracking, my first time, mean, but
Speaker 1: this was a crazy way that's your first time meeting.
Speaker 1: I thought it was crazy, like I'm a Miami duties
Speaker 1: of Texas during the first time. We're gonna meet us
Speaker 1: in the project, in the project and you know, last
Speaker 1: night and my Greatest night Ka straight at the bottom
Speaker 1: the Champago, what's the ship with the yellow rap? Christal
Speaker 1: dright at the bottom? DTS drove by three times. I
Speaker 1: remember every time, Um, I watched under age dude slap
Speaker 1: over age dude commented an everything on the side just
Speaker 1: like yo, and it was hilarious everything um corner beef
Speaker 1: because somebody pressed somebody. I'm not naming on it, but
Speaker 1: somebody pressed somebody and didn't know that he was working
Speaker 1: for somebody else. So that became a thing like yo.
Speaker 1: So I needed somebody need to shoot you to five
Speaker 1: for that because you didn't know. Um there was an
Speaker 1: an all and the all got got he got shot
Speaker 1: to five. He got shot. He got shot the five.
Speaker 1: And then while that happened and his keys flew out
Speaker 1: his hand, the other young homie, I don't want to
Speaker 1: say his name, but he being used it with me
Speaker 1: and truck all the time to being Texas shout out
Speaker 1: to him kept his foot I've never kept his foot
Speaker 1: on his keys for two and a half hours, while
Speaker 1: he was looking everywhere for his keys, they were right
Speaker 1: there on the one dude shoot for two and a
Speaker 1: half hours. He never moved. He kept that was an
Speaker 1: amazing night, and trying to get a cab home, trying
Speaker 1: to get a cat still black, and trying to get
Speaker 1: a cat from left rack back. We can't get a cat. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but let me just tell you something. That was one
Speaker 1: of the most memorable moments for my life, because you
Speaker 1: know why, I don't realize how out of control my
Speaker 1: hood is because I'm just a part of it. Like
Speaker 1: you came with me yesterday and I feel like I
Speaker 1: feel like you finally realized, like okay, and it was
Speaker 1: ill because you were faking it was look at the blink.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry telling you. It's good. It's good. I thought
Speaker 1: it was beautiful because Norri was my all accounts famous
Speaker 1: at this point, right, and he's in he's intellections and
Speaker 1: he's on the block with his homies and even brought
Speaker 1: us out there and he's in his hood. And it
Speaker 1: was like you probably don't know this, but ever since
Speaker 1: I ever since you did that, every time somebody comes
Speaker 1: to Houston, I picked them up. I ride him around
Speaker 1: and people don't know why this happened. I picked them
Speaker 1: up a ride around and take them straight, Like where
Speaker 1: do you want to go in Houston? I want to
Speaker 1: go to fifth Ward. I want to go back to
Speaker 1: the school. I'm just giving you real I'm just giving
Speaker 1: you real ship. I'm like, yeah, I'm so gass because
Speaker 1: my thing is if I can't do for people in
Speaker 1: my city with NOI did for me, they're not real.
Speaker 1: They're not real. But damn that's that's because you never
Speaker 1: even acted like you was the hard sneak out of
Speaker 1: left right, Like you know what I'm saying, but you
Speaker 1: know that you can go home, but you know you could,
Speaker 1: but you know you could go home, right, And there's
Speaker 1: a lot of people that can't go home. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Home yesterday and everybody, let me tell
Speaker 1: you something, that was the best compliment I ever got
Speaker 1: in my life, because that's the real ship. The thing
Speaker 1: about it is a lot of us we come from
Speaker 1: the hood. A lot of people say, oh, this dick
Speaker 1: head can't come back to the not because I go
Speaker 1: right back and rich and prod we're talking about the
Speaker 1: and and then when to go back, here's the crazy
Speaker 1: ship they leave because you know, I was really a shooter.
Speaker 1: I never had a shooter, like I know serious, I
Speaker 1: was the shooter. So when I come back everybody leaves
Speaker 1: and it's like it's weird. So for me, I was
Speaker 1: always I was always a storyteller. I was always to
Speaker 1: do like I came, I went to Houston and came
Speaker 1: back to put author. Yo, this is a blank like
Speaker 1: I went to Houston came back, Yo. But this is
Speaker 1: the basic. This is wet Yo. I left, went to Houston,
Speaker 1: came back. This is hisserve. I went to Houston back
Speaker 1: like I would always bring all that type of ship too.
Speaker 1: But that's a big thing right there, because you know
Speaker 1: what you just said, right my very importance. You said
Speaker 1: you went to Houston and you went to Paul Author. See,
Speaker 1: most people who listen to this, they don't realize that, Yeah,
Speaker 1: if I went half away from Houston, like I'm faces
Speaker 1: from Houston, I'm closer to Louisiana than I am in
Speaker 1: Houston from and like all my families from Louisiana. But
Speaker 1: there was there was only if you wanted to make music,
Speaker 1: you had to go to Houston. Houston like that was
Speaker 1: where you had to go to make your bones about music,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So for us, it was
Speaker 1: a no brain like we didn't even have real recording
Speaker 1: studios put author, you know what I'm saying. But we
Speaker 1: had people that wanted to be real m c s.
Speaker 1: I'm listening. So we just kept going at it, kept
Speaker 1: going at it, and eventually we went to the flea
Speaker 1: market one day and kid the flea Market had it
Speaker 1: in Houston, had to sign in in his store and
Speaker 1: he said, we're looking for demos. And we got back
Speaker 1: in the car, drove back to put the Author, got
Speaker 1: the demo, drove back to the flea market, played him
Speaker 1: the demo and he was like, Okay, we're four deep
Speaker 1: in the old school prelud. You remember the old prelude
Speaker 1: that they have no back seat? Were four deep? Want
Speaker 1: to I want to have the whole other city. I
Speaker 1: wanted to go a little deeper right now. But let's go.
Speaker 1: How did you and Pimp even meet? Me? And Pimp
Speaker 1: had a mutual friend Mitchell Queen, and pimp was his
Speaker 1: name was Mitchell Quinn Big Mitch, and Mitch was rapping
Speaker 1: with and he was he was rapping with Pimp before
Speaker 1: I was. And I had an idea who Pimp was,
Speaker 1: and I ain't really liked him, and Pimp had an
Speaker 1: idea of who I was, and like me, he liked me.
Speaker 1: We met at like a football game, and he fronted
Speaker 1: me about some ship and I actually proved I don't
Speaker 1: want to get too deep in it. I got saved
Speaker 1: some ship for the book, like my wife said, I said,
Speaker 1: for the book. He fronted me on something I proved
Speaker 1: myself right, and from that point on we became real
Speaker 1: tight because I thought he was a certain type of
Speaker 1: dude and he approached me a certain way that I
Speaker 1: ain't expect from him, and then I handled it a
Speaker 1: certain way that he didn't expect from me. And then
Speaker 1: we realized and this is this is literally like my
Speaker 1: junior years, sophomore year. Yeah, nothing that before we were
Speaker 1: making music because he was already man, I wasn't even
Speaker 1: really rap. That was k first album name K's first.
Speaker 1: Our first project was The Southern Way. But he and
Speaker 1: Mitchell Queen to do what I'm talking about with you
Speaker 1: g K. First Wait, wait, it wasn't. No, I'm not
Speaker 1: one of the original members of ug Cat, but that's
Speaker 1: what the book. But that's what the I can smacked myself,
Speaker 1: you g K Whitey book coming so, but it's not
Speaker 1: an actual album that came out. No, no, no, just
Speaker 1: as a group, and then because what it was when
Speaker 1: they were two men, they were a group, and then
Speaker 1: I ended up being in another group. So when we
Speaker 1: got together we as a four man group, we became
Speaker 1: a totally different group. And then when the dude hurt
Speaker 1: because the demo we made was just the four man group.
Speaker 1: So someone like, I want to sign y'all. But one
Speaker 1: of the other two dudes had a football scholarship. He
Speaker 1: was like, I'm going to play football. And then the
Speaker 1: other dude was like a football like prodigy. He was
Speaker 1: like a prospect, but he was a junior. So he's like, yo,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I want to play ball like him, So
Speaker 1: I'm to concentrate onitial and get a scholarship. So it
Speaker 1: ended up just kind of being me and paim let
Speaker 1: me ask you, Let me ask you a question, being
Speaker 1: from Houston, being from the Rolling more Weed on how
Speaker 1: we good? Right now? You're good? Had a scar face
Speaker 1: player roll. So scar Face was the first time scar
Speaker 1: Face was this is all right, So I don't want
Speaker 1: to go I ain't gonna tell that strike like wife,
Speaker 1: you said, you're gonna tell everything, but I will say
Speaker 1: scarface one time. I want to say scar face was
Speaker 1: the first like real rapper with a record out that
Speaker 1: I've ever seen in my life. He came to he
Speaker 1: came to a show that I was at and rapped
Speaker 1: and this was scared Face back when he used to
Speaker 1: wear the suit in the hat. And he was the
Speaker 1: first time I've ever been in the in the room
Speaker 1: with somebody that actually had made a record. And that
Speaker 1: changed my perspective on who gets to make a record?
Speaker 1: Why did not that scar Face wasn't special, but that
Speaker 1: you didn't have to just be from New York l
Speaker 1: A to actually be able to make a rap record
Speaker 1: and then go and get shows away from where you from.
Speaker 1: So you're walking aroom when a win a bathroom and
Speaker 1: escaping marine, I feel like scarf Face gotta figure out
Speaker 1: shoot on like a Sioux suit. Yeah, I definitely was off.
Speaker 1: I was wrong. So I described the scene you guys
Speaker 1: show he's with Kay Reino. I'm in the bathroom, Hey Reno.
Speaker 1: I feel like it's cares one cousin. He from that era.
Speaker 1: Ka Rio was like the first bout. Ka Rio was
Speaker 1: like the first original battle rapper from Houston, like eighty eight.
Speaker 1: He still like the dude that will like he guys,
Speaker 1: he got like that he's to dude right now, right now,
Speaker 1: like he will too bar you to death. Well he
Speaker 1: had two part boom boom like death like he's got it.
Speaker 1: He got what he called the Black Book and it's
Speaker 1: literally thirty years of wrapping there. But um yeah, and
Speaker 1: then we were freestyling in the room and me and
Speaker 1: my man David Forrest, um d a from the Black Monks.
Speaker 1: We were hurting niggas. We were hurting the Black Monks.
Speaker 1: That was a rap group, the Black Monks shot out
Speaker 1: the old school that he really did, I really did,
Speaker 1: I really did. Look we were in there like me
Speaker 1: and because we went to the same high school. To guess,
Speaker 1: we were like bodying niggas. And then facing Krino comes
Speaker 1: in and face doesn't even wrap Kino the sixteen bars
Speaker 1: and then they just walk out and they just kind
Speaker 1: of just go home. But did you know how how
Speaker 1: classic Like I don't want to say that pemp c
Speaker 1: was out of lis after he died, because he just
Speaker 1: wasn't appreciated until he died, That's what you said. Because
Speaker 1: I people didn't realize how much of the U g
Speaker 1: K library he produced. They didn't realize how much music
Speaker 1: outside of U g K. He produced UM and he
Speaker 1: didn't Yeah, yeah, see see what I'm saying. That's what
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. And people didn't really know that. And
Speaker 1: people didn't know that he and he was He didn't
Speaker 1: make beats, he was a producer. He had a real
Speaker 1: discipline for music, and people didn't really realize that outside
Speaker 1: of the South. I think Willie D was the first
Speaker 1: person to say, people think we just lost a rapper,
Speaker 1: We lost way mold than a rapper, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And that was what really made him great
Speaker 1: to the people in the South because they knew my bad.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you something funny. Ice Q wouldn't do a
Speaker 1: record of me unless he seemed to me in the studio,
Speaker 1: and PIMC was the same way. PIMC said, I think
Speaker 1: I think he's a real nigger, but I gotta I
Speaker 1: gotta be sure, because Nigga is a real good, realigo uniform.
Speaker 1: And war just think you got to go to this
Speaker 1: meeting to get your real nigger uniform. Right, you already
Speaker 1: consigned each other to leave each other along and it
Speaker 1: was like six seven hours were in the studio. We
Speaker 1: just keep going and Buttons like, all right, everybody coslines
Speaker 1: with each other, Let's finish the rector because I've done
Speaker 1: you already know, if wet, I'm probably the first person
Speaker 1: down with the rids. I'm just sitting around way for
Speaker 1: everybody else know. But I appreciated that so much. I
Speaker 1: appreciate it, though, did you your two brothers together? I
Speaker 1: appreciate that y'all love for each other because y'all love
Speaker 1: for each other was the same exact way that me
Speaker 1: and Capone love each other, meaning that I ain't gotta
Speaker 1: show Capone love on camera. I ain't gotta fun with him.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you. I ask you a couple of questions.
Speaker 1: You should love it, and you should ask answer these
Speaker 1: in a way that's very predictable. Yes, with you and Pone.
Speaker 1: Did y'all have the same friends? No? Did y'all like
Speaker 1: the same kind of woman? No? Did y'all handle money
Speaker 1: the same way? No? But y'all made amazing music and
Speaker 1: history they got damn it. That's that's it. That's it.
Speaker 1: This is y Yang, right, you see what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: This is Yin and Yang, and that's why that ship
Speaker 1: hurt work. And when I watched E P m D
Speaker 1: and groups like that, right, the two man groups. And
Speaker 1: if you couldn't find too many two different niggas in
Speaker 1: parishing area. Right, But that's but because separate, right, but
Speaker 1: but but that means that we encompass everything that all
Speaker 1: with hoods, because that's the one thing we shared is
Speaker 1: our hood. You know what I'm saying, Like, that's the
Speaker 1: one thing you upo y'all left right, Nigga, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: crazy but Queen but Queens it's a different diss it work.
Speaker 1: Crypto made it work. Was we're from two different hoods,
Speaker 1: and that that'sn't even deeper inning. You know, listen, let
Speaker 1: me just tell you because me and Pimple from the
Speaker 1: same neighborhood. I can't go to Queensbridge. I went to
Speaker 1: Queen's Bridge just now. It's not my left rack, guys there,
Speaker 1: I went to left rack. There's nothing queen there but
Speaker 1: me and Capone set that up. And we didn't know
Speaker 1: what we were doing. We just had love for each
Speaker 1: other and we said, you know what funk that, we're
Speaker 1: gonna We're gonna mess with each other. And here's there.
Speaker 1: I'm glad he's alive and glad he's still here. Because
Speaker 1: we hugged hugged them the other day and I said, damn,
Speaker 1: and he said, look this, it's left right Queen's ridge.
Speaker 1: And then he came to left rock. He said, I said,
Speaker 1: look this queens. He said, if we set that up,
Speaker 1: and then I gave him a hug, and it's beautiful.
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful thing. Because haw, did it not meant
Speaker 1: for us that that we all leave respective legacies? And yes, yes,
Speaker 1: some of them bigger than others, but we all leave.
Speaker 1: We said precedents in from one right? Were of us
Speaker 1: are the first nigger times you use that word A
Speaker 1: lot of us are the first Niggers from my old
Speaker 1: hoods that did that or saw that brought that. What
Speaker 1: I'm saying, pressist, you know what I'm saying, No, no,
Speaker 1: because I just won't laugh at you. Just try to
Speaker 1: say it. I'm dyslexic. Just say I'm dyslexic. But no, no.
Speaker 1: But and because of the fact that we were those
Speaker 1: people that set those presidents dudes that normally would it
Speaker 1: be like for example, you g K, we come from
Speaker 1: put off the Texas. The next time to us is Bonumont, Texas.
Speaker 1: Beef years like beef physical, physical guns all of that.
Speaker 1: We were the first put off the niggas to actually
Speaker 1: be able to go to bonmout like have a concert
Speaker 1: and let niggas mean muggas. But but like, look, eventually
Speaker 1: the music one over and they realized that, look, whether
Speaker 1: we like these dudes or not, nobody even know where
Speaker 1: we're from. These dudes are actually kind of representing the whole.
Speaker 1: Because we wouldn't just say put after, we'd be like, yo,
Speaker 1: we're from the Golden Triangle. The Golden Triangle is put
Speaker 1: off the whole. And so even though put off the
Speaker 1: niggas might beef with Bonmone niggas and beef with Orange niggas,
Speaker 1: if we got to go to use if a Bonmone
Speaker 1: nigga and put off the niggas in Houston and they
Speaker 1: get into it with Houston, they're gonna shoulder to show.
Speaker 1: We gotta get back home and then we'll deal with
Speaker 1: that later. It's like street beef versus it's like the
Speaker 1: street versus the penitentiary. In the street, we would beef
Speaker 1: in the pending. Now we gotta lock up. It's a
Speaker 1: different it's a different dynamic. I'm not gonna get into it,
Speaker 1: but you're talking about it, and I'm like, I don't
Speaker 1: want to know what you had to choose. It's terrible.
Speaker 1: You don't need to go to jail right now. Ever ever, listen,
Speaker 1: but now it came on one time with Pam actually
Speaker 1: got on land the radio and he shoot up everybody.
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't say he shipping or everybody. He was
Speaker 1: very honest about how he saw the world, how I
Speaker 1: saw the world. And you know what I'm saying that
Speaker 1: people if we was scared to be honest about how
Speaker 1: they see ship people. You want to say, now we
Speaker 1: understand that. But back then that was too advance. No, no,
Speaker 1: And even I was like, what is he doing because
Speaker 1: and there were people that were like, yo, um, this
Speaker 1: is crazy, like people are gonna people are about to
Speaker 1: go off on Pimp. I'm like, na, this will probably
Speaker 1: be fifty fifty and they were like, you're crazy, like
Speaker 1: Atlanta ain't the East coast. But I'm like, you don't
Speaker 1: understand how people love pim C. This will probably be
Speaker 1: about fifty fifty. And then and it became that kind
Speaker 1: of a situation. Now, I'll be honest, I think it's
Speaker 1: like everybody agreed with Pimp, but I did too, and
Speaker 1: it was because Pimp had been very honest and open
Speaker 1: and eventually right about a lot of ship before they
Speaker 1: so when he gave that opinion, even people that lived
Speaker 1: in Atlanta kind of had to be like, I know what,
Speaker 1: I know what he's saying, but then I also know
Speaker 1: what he means, right, And maybe he didn't and maybe
Speaker 1: maybe he didn't see it in the right way, but
Speaker 1: I know what he meant because then he was like, Yo,
Speaker 1: you're saying Atlanta with the gay capital of the world.
Speaker 1: And he's like, okay, right, And at that time, people like, yo,
Speaker 1: you were wrong for that, But now in retrospect, if
Speaker 1: you go Atlantic small, I'm sorry it's and I'm not
Speaker 1: saying there's nothing wrong with being gay, but I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: He was running something like a lot of black people
Speaker 1: that are trying to explore their sexuality or trying to
Speaker 1: confirm their sexuality or finding themselves in Atlanta, in Atlanta, Georgia,
Speaker 1: and it's been like that, and that was there was
Speaker 1: a very ugly undercurrent of people that were on the download,
Speaker 1: and that was another thing he was trying to expose
Speaker 1: because we knew it. Because here's the thing, Pimsey was
Speaker 1: not homophobic, Pimsey had no problem with gay People's problem
Speaker 1: was quit hiding the fact whatever you are would be that, yes,
Speaker 1: because you're sucking up, and he would say that the
Speaker 1: problem when you're down a little, you're up the pussy population, right,
Speaker 1: And that was his problem. If you gave b gay,
Speaker 1: let everybody know who you are so we can identify
Speaker 1: that and separate that and be like, okay, so you
Speaker 1: leave the women alone. You don't have to program. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna cut you off for one second month. That's probably
Speaker 1: the first time I actually actually really want to, actually
Speaker 1: like really love How didn't just get jez Jeezy Because
Speaker 1: Jeez the biggest artist he could. He could have just
Speaker 1: turned around and just sit it on Pimpsie. He could
Speaker 1: have said something, but but you know what, Jeez did
Speaker 1: Jez shut the funk up that I'm not I'm not
Speaker 1: saying and I'll be honest that was out of all
Speaker 1: respect and didn't know pimp Jesz knew me. You knows
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Hold on, describe that, please, we'll break
Speaker 1: that down. Jeez rode for pamp like free Pampsy and
Speaker 1: all of that because because he left me. But Jeez
Speaker 1: didn't have that relationship with Pamp and vice versa, and
Speaker 1: so Pamp didn't really know who Jeezy was as a person.
Speaker 1: But in the middle of whatever he was doing, he
Speaker 1: felt a certain way about something and it put me
Speaker 1: in Jeez in a funny position because Jesus got up.
Speaker 1: He's got to represent his hood, he's got to do
Speaker 1: what he has to do. But and I'm telling him, look,
Speaker 1: whatever you feel you need to do, do what you
Speaker 1: gotta do. And he he didn't. But at the end
Speaker 1: of no, it's not that he didn't know. No, Jeez
Speaker 1: did everything he was supposed to do, like and he
Speaker 1: don't never say this, and obviously we're drinking that spite,
Speaker 1: but the reality of was Jesz did everything he was
Speaker 1: supposed to do. We did everything we were supposed to do,
Speaker 1: and God kept us away beautiful from each other. Jes
Speaker 1: was ready to do whatever he had to do to
Speaker 1: handle his situation, and we were ready to do everything
Speaker 1: we had to do. Then all our situation and God intervene.
Speaker 1: That's just. And then now like Jesus, he's never not
Speaker 1: been my brother, he's pimper, has never not been my brother.
Speaker 1: And so God was like, look, I don't want you
Speaker 1: to have to choose between brother and brother. So here's
Speaker 1: what is what we're gonna do. How difficult is that
Speaker 1: for you? Like it wasn't. It wasn't difficult at all
Speaker 1: because Jesz had to do what he had to do
Speaker 1: and I had to do what I had to do.
Speaker 1: And I'm just talking about in general, like if you no,
Speaker 1: it wasn't. It wasn't Like I said, Jeez knew what
Speaker 1: he had to do. I knew what I had to do,
Speaker 1: and you maintain that and he did too. And that's why,
Speaker 1: and that's why we could still stand together as men
Speaker 1: and speak and whatever, because nobody got compromised in that position.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if you know, bum B, but
Speaker 1: this is a podcast, this is a show. We all
Speaker 1: have old TV, but we're big up our artists. We
Speaker 1: give our artists they flowers when they could smell them.
Speaker 1: We give them their drinks when they can wait, hold on,
Speaker 1: excuse me, I can't with another bottle be gave when
Speaker 1: they flowers when they can smell them, their trees when
Speaker 1: they get the hell them. We give them their drinks
Speaker 1: when they get take them and they when they get
Speaker 1: drink because I know that the need to get my trees,
Speaker 1: Bunby and Bumby. I don't know if you know, but
Speaker 1: if it wasn't for you g K, they might have
Speaker 1: been a mob D. No, no, relax, come on, let
Speaker 1: me pick you up and relax. Relax, it wasn't for you,
Speaker 1: No excuse me. You know what, I'll take it even
Speaker 1: further than that. And once for eight ball m j G,
Speaker 1: they might have been a U g K. If it
Speaker 1: wasn't for you g K, they might have not been
Speaker 1: a mob Deep. It wasn't for MAB Deep, they might
Speaker 1: have been not seeing that. I remember when I remember

Speaker 1: got me, and and that's that's the beautiful thing about
Speaker 1: what we do is hip hop has bunged us to
Speaker 1: the world. No, I don't know, it's crazy. That's crazy.
Speaker 1: That's the crazy ship. You You ever look at your
Speaker 1: photo map on your phone and just be like, like,
Speaker 1: this is everywhere I've ever been. Like me and my
Speaker 1: wife would try to sit back and just go into
Speaker 1: into the map ship and look at every way you
Speaker 1: ever took a picture nigger, And it's all on hip
Speaker 1: There's always passport. They're still my passport. But I had
Speaker 1: every fucking in the world. I was so proud of
Speaker 1: my passport. Shout out to my nigga Mike from New York.
Speaker 1: Mike got a North Korea passport. He got a stamp
Speaker 1: from North Korea. That's the next ship he got. He
Speaker 1: got a camp from Korea with Kim Johnes. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: he drove through North Korea. He got out. They were
Speaker 1: doing gunball and there was on the way to be though,
Speaker 1: because I'm back on my music ship. That's where you
Speaker 1: drive across. It's three thousand, three thousand miles in six days.
Speaker 1: Just manh the cannonball it is, but it's it's way
Speaker 1: more here than cannonball because it's like a hundred and
Speaker 1: twenty cars, probably about eighty million illars worth of cars
Speaker 1: and drink champs. Yeah, we can't let you leave it.
Speaker 1: I told you got a new album coming out. No,
Speaker 1: I got an EP coming out. Then I got a
Speaker 1: new album. That's then I got another album and three book.
Speaker 1: So you were going to do the album and then
Speaker 1: white people like, look, take your time on, y'all. You
Speaker 1: got a bunch of music. Put a little ep a
Speaker 1: right click, you can still eat. Hey, niked. We don't
Speaker 1: call it white. We call it a muse. I make art, right,
Speaker 1: I make I don't make music. I make art. My
Speaker 1: wife is my muticic. Right, so when the music says
Speaker 1: you're doing right, we mashed on that. When you said
Speaker 1: you're doing wrong, we erased that. So the describe a
Speaker 1: AP what is that five songs? So we're somewhere between
Speaker 1: seven and eight. Okay, so we have to be careful
Speaker 1: because anything more than eight is an album. Seven eight
Speaker 1: just when I'm not doing no intros, out track. So
Speaker 1: but she was like, look, let's just put some music out.
Speaker 1: Let niggas know your back, increase the shows, get the
Speaker 1: money up, so you still can do your album because
Speaker 1: my album division is separate from what we're doing on this.
Speaker 1: That's what that's you. You want to answer this, but
Speaker 1: you gotta relax, so you gotta answer it was all album.
Speaker 1: I feel like you gotta relax bad. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm sitting it's time to roll a blood, don't Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm man, but I gotta actually to relax. I should
Speaker 1: have put him out speaker. Now, I hear you, I
Speaker 1: hear you. I'm I'm in the middle of the interview minutes.
Speaker 1: You gotta relax, movie, But yeah, I remember shout out
Speaker 1: to branch and you're going there one shout and that
Speaker 1: way we want to go. Right now, I'm in. I'm
Speaker 1: one of one of Pimc's best friends. Like we should
Speaker 1: go to the spot set there for three hours, I
Speaker 1: would just sit and look at the on warwork on
Speaker 1: the wall and that the same tree spot I was.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something about Pamp. I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: honest with you. Pamp called niggers. They said, you're Norm's
Speaker 1: your real niggers. I'm sure they say, yeah, yeah, no, No,
Speaker 1: He's gonna go all out with you. He said, you sure,
Speaker 1: and then he still wanted to meet me. He still
Speaker 1: looked at me. And then he came and looked at
Speaker 1: me and he was like, I walk with you anywhere.
Speaker 1: And I said, but that's what I appreciate it, like
Speaker 1: I actually, because very few people are genuine in this game, right,
Speaker 1: very few people are genuine. So like he was very excited,
Speaker 1: like yo to meet y'all, to meet y'all. You into
Speaker 1: in particular, and you will who you were, right, because
Speaker 1: a lot of people I'm not gonna put you know,
Speaker 1: I'm not, but there are a lot of people that
Speaker 1: are not who they say they are. And when you
Speaker 1: took me to that that's why I was backside. When
Speaker 1: you took me to that, I was like, Yo, I
Speaker 1: took you, got Glupe big Sean, I took everything, picked
Speaker 1: him up from the airport. Where you want to go.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go here and eat fry chicken. I go here,
Speaker 1: eat barbecue, gone screw shop, getting my call with me,
Speaker 1: just me and you. I'm gonna take you anyway you
Speaker 1: want to go, and you and you're good. And that
Speaker 1: was because Nor took me a left rack and was
Speaker 1: exactly where he was supposed to be in left rack. Now,
Speaker 1: I thank you brother so much for describing that. But
Speaker 1: but it was so beautiful when I met Pimp, because
Speaker 1: Pimp said, listen, everybody told me your real nigga, but
Speaker 1: you're not a real nigga to That's so I was like, damn,
Speaker 1: my brother. My brother was very literal, yo, So I
Speaker 1: had to go. I went to sound on South. Would
Speaker 1: never forget this. I still did for three hours, and
Speaker 1: he kept looking at him, and they did the nigga
Speaker 1: never lost the studio. No, and I'm looking at this
Speaker 1: funny because this funny because I knew he's that line
Speaker 1: and I wasn't there. And that's what's funny because in
Speaker 1: those moments, like it's very important for pamp to be
Speaker 1: like because the reality for Pamper is like when I
Speaker 1: come to New York and you say you that dude,
Speaker 1: I get my life. You know, I don't go to
Speaker 1: every hood. The last time after you, the only hood
Speaker 1: I went to in stood to three in the morning
Speaker 1: was Chicago. Oh yes, you know, I love Chicago's way.
Speaker 1: I love Chicago, said in the hood. Shot a video
Speaker 1: late the morning, and who in the artists? Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: my man, Jay Artist. I can't think of the names
Speaker 1: right now, damn, but I'm know I'm fucked up. Dren
Speaker 1: from Chicago. You know. It's two dudes from the two
Speaker 1: dudes dif from Chicago. Um, damn, I can't think of
Speaker 1: the names once one skin with braids, the other dark
Speaker 1: skin with short hair. And my man, you're gonna but
Speaker 1: let me just tell you somebody l ep bogus. But
Speaker 1: but let me tell you something. But you are one
Speaker 1: of the most respected people, one of the most respected
Speaker 1: all that sank you are one of the most respected individuals,
Speaker 1: and we want to continue to respect you. But in
Speaker 1: order to do that, I gotta still be who I'm
Speaker 1: supposed to be. You ain't supposed to respect somebody just
Speaker 1: because of what they did. You gotta maintain and respect
Speaker 1: people because of what they're doing. Because if people continue
Speaker 1: to if we continue to give people credit based on
Speaker 1: what they did, they're gonna keep leaning on that. They
Speaker 1: ain't gonna proving themselves. I got improved myself. I gotta
Speaker 1: keep making sure that I'm who I'm supposed to be.
Speaker 1: For niggas, see, we're locked in on the moment we
Speaker 1: had ten twelve years ago, and we respect each other
Speaker 1: in that moment. Other niggas don't have that moment with
Speaker 1: me or you, so we still have to maintain that.
Speaker 1: Here's what I gotta stop. Okay, I gotta two different
Speaker 1: kinds of drunks. I love this, this me and you're
Speaker 1: at the bar right now, no real ship. This me
Speaker 1: and you're at to listen. But I got a platform,
Speaker 1: I got a format, and you know what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 1: I gotta stop you because you know why. You need
Speaker 1: to be respected. You need to be saluted. You g
Speaker 1: k bunby everything you guys did to your ticket, hat off, Goddamn,
Speaker 1: we're gonna here. Look look this this is my towe.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wipe your sweat. Listen, this is what you
Speaker 1: need to do. You need to sit here, you need
Speaker 1: to you need to be respected, because know why hip
Speaker 1: hop shi salute hip hop. And that's the part that
Speaker 1: we don't have. We don't have. You know what it is.
Speaker 1: People would sit back and they say, Ah, this guy
Speaker 1: is this guy, and this guy is this guy, and
Speaker 1: that's not what youd be happening. You know, we just
Speaker 1: recently went to Atlanta, hung out with a big boy,
Speaker 1: hung out with cel I, hung out I'm now we're
Speaker 1: hanging out with motherfucking button b and bud By can never, ever, ever, ever,
Speaker 1: ever in his life come to New York. And I
Speaker 1: feel appreciate it, especially when I'm in New York. And
Speaker 1: you know why because a lot of motherfucker's might not say,
Speaker 1: you know what, you GK raised us, But that's them, Nicks,
Speaker 1: it's not me. You g K fucking raised us, you know,
Speaker 1: and you know how how important he is to the
Speaker 1: culture and how much you respect the before you go in,
Speaker 1: Before you go, I want to get your love because
Speaker 1: you and RP Prodigy, y'all was young niggas. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, and we saw it as young niggas,
Speaker 1: and that was something that we respected from y'all. Y'all
Speaker 1: was so because Pimp was I was. I was nineteen
Speaker 1: and Pimp was eighteen when you was seventeen, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. When Pimp was literally like, Yo, am
Speaker 1: I gonna go and get Am I gonna graduate from
Speaker 1: high school and make music? You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 1: And I had just graduated, I was like, am I
Speaker 1: gonna go to college? I'm gonna make music? And both
Speaker 1: of us like, yo, we're gonna get this ship a year.
Speaker 1: If not, we're gonna do whatever. And the day before
Speaker 1: we made this decision after I graduated on May on
Speaker 1: April thirtieth, and on on my mean it was me no,
Speaker 1: it was Aple thirties and literally went to New York
Speaker 1: a year later on April thirties and signed a record
Speaker 1: deal on May first with Yoah. And from that point on,
Speaker 1: we made a decision either way that we were going
Speaker 1: to ride that it out together. And I've been running
Speaker 1: for my nigger hard for me when he was here
Speaker 1: because we're not in the interview. But what I want
Speaker 1: to say is because you cut me off. He cut
Speaker 1: me off, He cut me off and the first But
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna tell you something. Buy me and this
Speaker 1: brother right here, we started this podcast because we wanted
Speaker 1: to respect legends. And we could have been dead because
Speaker 1: you know why these guys want the new guys, but
Speaker 1: me and him stuck to our guns. And when we
Speaker 1: started this, we want to pick up brothers like you,
Speaker 1: brothers like PAM, brothers like m g K. I'm excuse me,
Speaker 1: M just me, but listen. And the thing about it is,
Speaker 1: this is exactly what hip hop has to do. They
Speaker 1: keep telling me. They say, you know what drink champs work.
Speaker 1: I've met with Leo Cohns and you know what leg
Speaker 1: cons told me. He said, because you're a legend, big
Speaker 1: enough legends And I said, Leo, I wanted to tell
Speaker 1: him to shut up, but then I said, I think
Speaker 1: he's right. That's what we gotta keep doing. But go bun,
Speaker 1: we're going tonight. We are celebrating bund motherfucking bel No,
Speaker 1: let me get let me getne off. Please let me
Speaker 1: get mine off, because you mean we met and left
Speaker 1: Frank that time and from that point on, you know,
Speaker 1: like the DJs with the background you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Sometimes we get overlooked over here, like as a fan,
Speaker 1: I'm sitting here looking at you already to talk about it.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm a fan, so I'm gonna say I'm gonna
Speaker 1: listen to this. Take it all in. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And you guys have all these stories, but
Speaker 1: little do people know the work y'all doing behind the
Speaker 1: scenes and helping other people out. But no problem. When
Speaker 1: I called bon up back in those days, I don't
Speaker 1: know how we email or text or two. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: I need I need a freestyle for the mixtape bomb,
Speaker 1: I need another one for the mixtape bo He says me.
Speaker 1: Pro tool sessions. I said, I got an artist. Can
Speaker 1: I use one of these sessions and make a track
Speaker 1: and keeping it? And this is a legend. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying already, But I'm go ahead and do it.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. And then on the recent
Speaker 1: album I did in two thousand fifteen, hit him up,
Speaker 1: same things never changed. Thank you. And you know, I
Speaker 1: just want to say than because I know I'm probably
Speaker 1: not the only DJ that you were supporting and and
Speaker 1: and from from all the DJs. I want to thank
Speaker 1: you as well, but it was very genuine because there's
Speaker 1: a million motherfucker's they wrap you know when you were
Speaker 1: very adamant on your projects that you wanted me, and
Speaker 1: it is a very unique place. And it wasn't a
Speaker 1: thing of you wanted me because I was hot or
Speaker 1: any of that. It's like, Yo, I got something. I
Speaker 1: want people to know it's a good project, but can
Speaker 1: you give me something? I just want to support you.
Speaker 1: I always always talk about I always talk about but
Speaker 1: I always talk about in the way that people probably
Speaker 1: now talk about Callett because of the genuine spirit and
Speaker 1: everybody has ever given anything that ef and is never
Speaker 1: asked for. Really, I don't know, but I feel like
Speaker 1: everybody's giving it to you because they don't they genuinely
Speaker 1: like you as a person, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And that's when when I saw him, I was like, Yo,
Speaker 1: look what life is taking us. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Look how the ship came all the way around because everybody,
Speaker 1: and I told you this earlier, everybody wants to win
Speaker 1: a certain way, and you might be set up to win,
Speaker 1: but not in the way that you want to win.
Speaker 1: But if you leave yourself open to things. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, because I know I can guarantee neither
Speaker 1: one of you need to touch all what's gonna win
Speaker 1: on this podcast? You know what I'm saying. But but
Speaker 1: but y'all did it because like you know what, with
Speaker 1: you with me, we're gonna get on this mic and
Speaker 1: we're gonna hold each other down. And it's taking and
Speaker 1: it's very it's it's very nice to see when when
Speaker 1: people be like, Yo, we're just gonna ride this obviou
Speaker 1: see what happens, you know what I'm saying, And then
Speaker 1: and then it ends up getting a chat just being real.
Speaker 1: Shout out to revolt y. I don't know the shout
Speaker 1: out to a rock because I'm like, funked up on
Speaker 1: you got you gotta big for that. You can't. You
Speaker 1: can'tnot shout them out for that. Picked them up. I
Speaker 1: got to pick him a bigger shout out to wife
Speaker 1: you because she's here, look it up. She's like, ain't
Speaker 1: been drunk with somebody. I'm just throwing it out there.
Speaker 1: She's like, he had been a drunks and he when
Speaker 1: the drunk his birthday. But it's good because I'm sweating
Speaker 1: to so I'm not as drunk as I should. Are
Speaker 1: you doing you know you don't you want to be doing?
Speaker 1: God the premium feed in the bag because I want
Speaker 1: to say that that he inspired teach to teach to
Speaker 1: get involved with the food drug and all that. Like you,
Speaker 1: I know, I've seen it in some way that you
Speaker 1: helped inspire. That's my brother. Teacher. Teachers is a good dude,
Speaker 1: and teachers in the place where he had made money.
Speaker 1: He was successful managing pit boll He had made money
Speaker 1: or whatever, but there wasn't any personal fulfillment for him.
Speaker 1: And I was like, well, what do you What do
Speaker 1: you like like to do, like to cook, to cook
Speaker 1: for names, like when I come to Miami cook for
Speaker 1: me and he cooked out like you can actually really
Speaker 1: cook like And I was like, if this is what
Speaker 1: you want to do, you should follow this because if
Speaker 1: you don't do this, you're gonna spend money doing something
Speaker 1: else and you're gonna regret not doing it doing something
Speaker 1: that you really love to do. If you're gonna take
Speaker 1: the money that you've worked hard for yourself and your family,
Speaker 1: if you're gonna put that on the line, it should
Speaker 1: be for something and that you believe in and heart
Speaker 1: and above everything else, he loved to cook and he's
Speaker 1: got fulfillment now. And it's not just about money. I
Speaker 1: used to think it was about money. And there was
Speaker 1: a lot of things that I missed. Moments with my wife,
Speaker 1: moments with my kids, you know, just being really your wife.
Speaker 1: I love that, that's how But it's just there were
Speaker 1: things that that I felt like, I'm like, yo, I
Speaker 1: need I need to make sure they can live in
Speaker 1: a certain house. I need to make sure they can
Speaker 1: wear certain clothes, they can go to certain places. But
Speaker 1: it wasn't really about that, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: It was about living life for personal fulfillment, Like what
Speaker 1: do we enjoy as a family, What do we enjoy
Speaker 1: as a couple, What do we enjoy it from the
Speaker 1: parents the child dynamic? And if you don't really stick
Speaker 1: to that, you're gonna lose it. Because the ship that
Speaker 1: we do is designed to prop you up. I designed
Speaker 1: to prop the couple of us, the parent up. It's
Speaker 1: trying to prop you up. You gotta find it in
Speaker 1: yourself to be like yo, I gotta make sure that
Speaker 1: I'm still a husband to my wife. I'm still a
Speaker 1: father to my kids. I'm still a brother to my friends.
Speaker 1: Because this game is like you know what. I know,
Speaker 1: you got your crew with you, but you're the ship.
Speaker 1: This ship is about you. They need you. I wouldn't
Speaker 1: be here if it wasn't food. Damn, that's exactly what
Speaker 1: I'm doing my food show. They told me on my
Speaker 1: food show, I could listen on my food show. I
Speaker 1: could have did anything, but I hired. I had about
Speaker 1: list six six different people. You know what I could
Speaker 1: have did loving hip hop. But if I did love
Speaker 1: hip hop, don't even get would I would bring my
Speaker 1: wife up here right out. Let me feel like they started.
Speaker 1: If I would have did loveing hip hop, you wouldn't
Speaker 1: have seen him. You want to see him. And guess
Speaker 1: what if I was the love of hip hop, they
Speaker 1: didn't want me to do drink champs and shout out.
Speaker 1: I got nothing against them right now what they do.
Speaker 1: But I know that every time they wanted to, like
Speaker 1: after loving hip hop New York before they went to
Speaker 1: Atlanta and Hollywood. The first at the first people, they
Speaker 1: was like, yo, me and I'm being want you and
Speaker 1: your wife. We looked at everything and we made a
Speaker 1: conscious decision as the family. We don't need that. It's
Speaker 1: not worth it. I don't want your wife fighting nobody
Speaker 1: because I'm gonna shoot whoever. No, no, don't miss let
Speaker 1: me say that. But but we're a real family, right,
Speaker 1: We're a real family. And I'm not saying anybody else
Speaker 1: any real family, but we're a real family. And we
Speaker 1: didn't need that. We didn't need that. No disrespect to that,
Speaker 1: we just didn't need that, you know. You know, and
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that people that did it like, we're
Speaker 1: not saying it like that, you know, but that was
Speaker 1: something that was like, you know what, we have our family.
Speaker 1: Nobody knows the dynamic and our family and just say,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sorry, I gotta cut you off. Food,
Speaker 1: don't come I listen, I'll say vault TV. Yeah, what
Speaker 1: we're trying to do, we're trying to change black media
Speaker 1: because black media. Did we controlled by black media? Did
Speaker 1: that make Did that make sense? Did you want to
Speaker 1: say that, say we want to change media and the
Speaker 1: media black change media? Change? You know why us ask
Speaker 1: us as the creative people in the world. We don't
Speaker 1: have to change anything. All we gotta do is continue
Speaker 1: to be who we need to own. What we do
Speaker 1: is we just need the owner. We do but because
Speaker 1: they can't sell nothing without us. We would love to
Speaker 1: get you on your wife's podcast Together TV. We would
Speaker 1: love to do that on film because she loved that.
Speaker 1: I want to think that would be EP credit. She's
Speaker 1: fine film because that's the only reason why we haven't
Speaker 1: do it done it because at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: we never had EP credit. We would never get EP credit,
Speaker 1: so we wouldn't do it. If we're gonna put our
Speaker 1: family out to the world, then we need to be
Speaker 1: in control of the vision. I'm not because I'm not
Speaker 1: here for Nick to go to dinner with my wife
Speaker 1: and have a nice dinner and then somebody coming and
Speaker 1: have a fucking fight. We're talking about the table three?
Speaker 1: Are we talking about the buns? The camera? No, no, no,
Speaker 1: shout out. I want to buy that. And there's a name,
Speaker 1: but I'm not gonna say it right now because somebody's
Speaker 1: gonna try to go there. If I say the name
Speaker 1: right now on this on this thing, they'll go there.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you, I'll tell you tell a lot
Speaker 1: I got. I'm telling it like the blood called puff
Speaker 1: Tell puffing his ear We're gonna drink summer cold because
Speaker 1: it's my wife drinking. And listen, this is how we
Speaker 1: do it. We only do know that's my wife controls
Speaker 1: it because my wife has my family's best love. I
Speaker 1: don't know a lot of this. My wife is the business. Yes,
Speaker 1: let me tell yo before no, I want to tell
Speaker 1: the story before we go. Him's locked up in jail.
Speaker 1: I was getting ready to a bad boys out. Puff

Speaker 1: This real ship buff comes. Pump said, But I'm not
Speaker 1: talking to you, talking to the wife because the wife
Speaker 1: friends the white friends of ship Puff office. Uh this
Speaker 1: Southern figures. He's like, Yo, I'm gonna give bun this.

Speaker 1: that and that. That we go home. My wife was like, yo,
Speaker 1: we should do this. We need what you Why you're

Speaker 1: wife's ill like I whisper in your ear. And that's
Speaker 1: why I'm here today, no no hold on. And at
Speaker 1: some point in my life between that and today's nobody's business.
Speaker 1: Between that point and today, my wife whispered in miad,
Speaker 1: And that's why we did. Especially listen right now, right now,
Speaker 1: I don't know my wife. When I leave here, my
Speaker 1: wife would be like if I lied, my wife would
Speaker 1: be like, I respect that. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I respect that. And listen. If you from hip hop,
Speaker 1: if you from Houston, left from the South, if you're
Speaker 1: from anywhere else in the world, and you understand who
Speaker 1: this man is, we support him, We salute him, we
Speaker 1: respect him. He had one of the most controversy to
Speaker 1: artists in the world. He stood there and he stood
Speaker 1: by him. The same is to me still do no. No,
Speaker 1: I think he won like he wont. He won't way
Speaker 1: more than me. But the fact that is, Bumby, we
Speaker 1: can't thank you enough. We want to stand up. We're
Speaker 1: gonna salute you. Because back I came to Dream Camp
Speaker 1: they got drunk and you know what, you know what

Speaker 1: not about me. It's about giving back to the community.
Speaker 1: By example, He's got my wife is like, Yo, we
Speaker 1: did good once or twice. We need to step it
Speaker 1: up and kick it up. This is what you need,
Speaker 1: you need, you need right give me. It comes to
Speaker 1: me problem. But every time you what you asked for,
Speaker 1: every time you have a high moment. That's what I need.
Speaker 1: I need you to hit me because I don't want to.
Speaker 1: I want to be the opposite of your humble moment,
Speaker 1: right and things will be like it was bumpy, bumpy,
Speaker 1: and then you'd be like, Yo, I'm good huh. And
Speaker 1: now I just want to stand by you and be
Speaker 1: like fu, Yeah, nigger, you know what you have to
Speaker 1: get behind her? No, no, you're that's me to do it.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you what I'm telling you. I'm telling you
Speaker 1: to sign to listen to you g K Bumby. You
Speaker 1: should be celebrated everything in hip hop and shouting out
Speaker 1: to you for being an entrepreneur. I know that I
Speaker 1: know your show. No, I know to designed for you
Speaker 1: to celebrate niggas. But I've known you, like dude, and
Speaker 1: even when I didn't know you, I knew you so
Speaker 1: I so when I met you, it was ship was
Speaker 1: obvious because I already knew what type of nigga y'all.
Speaker 1: But but but I gotta but no, but Joe, Joe,
Speaker 1: you get you know, you get paid to celebrateing niggas.
Speaker 1: This was on me. You can't. I'm not saying you
Speaker 1: can't pick me up, but it's important. It's important because
Speaker 1: I was telling my wife earlier. I said, Yo, I said,
Speaker 1: I said, no one's ever understood how smart Alway is.
Speaker 1: I said, and that's why he's always got richer than
Speaker 1: anybody ever thought he was gonna get. I said, I know,
Speaker 1: I mean to put him on blast, but you know,
Speaker 1: but he's so Yeah, but no, but no, Re is
Speaker 1: a genius. He's always going further than anybody thought he
Speaker 1: was gonna go, which was surprising to me because I'm like, why, no, No,
Speaker 1: she already knows. And I was like, yeah, I was like,
Speaker 1: look at him. Now he's got a food choice of
Speaker 1: the pocket, all this other stuff that i' not this
Speaker 1: was going. I was like this, like, I don't even
Speaker 1: know what I can say, what I can't say. I
Speaker 1: don't even know what I can't say, what I can't say.
Speaker 1: But the reality is that people look at us being
Speaker 1: from certain in finance, being from certain neighborhoods, and putting
Speaker 1: limitations on us, and so many times we accept those limitations. Damn.
Speaker 1: But you know what I'm saying, And it's beautiful to
Speaker 1: see somebody like Nori Dad has never accepted what people
Speaker 1: said he was supposed to be you and you look.
Speaker 1: I know it's no, it's not a person that ships
Speaker 1: on people. But it's got to be very interesting to
Speaker 1: look back everybody that that not only shipped on me,
Speaker 1: but like was like, but this was luck, this was
Speaker 1: this was timing or whatever. You know what I'm saying
Speaker 1: light he knew. I say that Christ just being real. Christnew.
Speaker 1: I just want to say that Chris knew. But I'm
Speaker 1: just saying nobody ever knew that they didn't want to
Speaker 1: if they knew, they didn't want to give credit. And
Speaker 1: I dealt with that in my career. Niggas had an
Speaker 1: idea of what we would do, but niggas would never
Speaker 1: give us credit. And it's it's amazing to see what
Speaker 1: Nori has done because Nori has been Nori. This is
Speaker 1: the same dude I said in lovet Reckord, the same
Speaker 1: dude I was at the studio with. You know, this
Speaker 1: was who I anticipated on meeting and that's who we
Speaker 1: ended up being and that's who he still is. And
Speaker 1: people don't realize everybody is fighting. I just want to
Speaker 1: say this, and I'm sorry I could be out of pocket. Niggas.
Speaker 1: Niggas are fighting to get on Drink Champs, and I
Speaker 1: can show you and I can show you my phone,
Speaker 1: and literally every seven to ten days, I'm begging him
Speaker 1: to come whenever you're ready to come on Drink. How
Speaker 1: many people get called by the top one of the
Speaker 1: top podcasts in the country, Yo, what are you doing? Yo?
Speaker 1: Where you I'm in New York. That's the only reason
Speaker 1: I'm here because we were talking this week and he
Speaker 1: was like, we're making him up to you, but it's
Speaker 1: been real. You're like, You're like, I'm going to Miami.
Speaker 1: I'm in New York right now. Can you get to Miami.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know. And then literally the next
Speaker 1: day I got called to come and do a show
Speaker 1: in New York. And then the day after I got booked,
Speaker 1: I called North's like, Yo, you're in New York to
Speaker 1: twelfth right, Like, I'm gonna be in New York this week.
Speaker 1: And that's why I'm on the microphone right now because
Speaker 1: my man left this door open, and as soon as
Speaker 1: I had opportunity and called him, I walked right through. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But in all due respect, Bun, I really appreciate the
Speaker 1: love that you just gave me. But I just want
Speaker 1: you to never ever, ever, ever not remember who you are.
Speaker 1: That's why my wife is here. And you know why,
Speaker 1: because the design a totally different aspect of life. What
Speaker 1: you g K did to us, but you guys gave
Speaker 1: to the music community, I could never thank you know.
Speaker 1: But we looked as a true man group. We looked
Speaker 1: at everybody, looked at you and you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But I'm saying as through longevity and there was always
Speaker 1: a dynamic that we could look at. When we started
Speaker 1: My fucking hat bumby PIMPC run D m C, there's
Speaker 1: always been something that we could look at. Run DMC
Speaker 1: was the first pm D. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: You know, even Houdini in different groups like that, we
Speaker 1: would look at like the two man group and need
Speaker 1: not just because there were two men, because you can
Speaker 1: put those two people in the room and leave with
Speaker 1: an album. And that's where the dynamic with Game Star
Speaker 1: comes in, the dynamic with Mob Deep comes in with
Speaker 1: E P m D comes in because you got the
Speaker 1: producing an m C. Put them dudes in the room,
Speaker 1: they come out with an album. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But even deeper than that, put these two dudes in
Speaker 1: the room, you come out with a movement component noriega
Speaker 1: killed it killed. That's why I keep my room and
Speaker 1: my wife in the room with me because I can't.
Speaker 1: I can't lie. She won't because she gonna sit right
Speaker 1: there and if I try to lie, she don't look
Speaker 1: up and be like, no, sir, God bless her. Okay,
Speaker 1: So here, here's a deal. You know, I'm so drunk
Speaker 1: right now, I'm almost certain that kid can't be anything.
Speaker 1: Is that Barcelo open downstairs? Let's killing right now. We
Speaker 1: could go downstairs, but but I ain't gonna lie to you. Man.
Speaker 1: I can't thank you enough, because the thing about it is,
Speaker 1: people think that your soul like because because how front
Speaker 1: Pet was, people think that you're like like you. You
Speaker 1: won't even answer a question because I don't. I don't talk.
Speaker 1: I don't know. But I'm your brother. Know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I'm talking to you. I'm talking to you, but in
Speaker 1: the in the in the physics, in the physical world,
Speaker 1: in the physical world, like me and me and out
Speaker 1: in my better half. Yes, I walk in any room
Speaker 1: to walk out. Yes, yes, h God, we're walking to
Speaker 1: any wom to walk out. I never let me tell
Speaker 1: you all the iller ship, my brother ever said, all
Speaker 1: that fly ship and minkoes on the ellership. Pimp Ever
Speaker 1: said was I don't need body guds, I just need
Speaker 1: mighty God, Mighty God. I said, that's said, and I've
Speaker 1: ever since he said that. I never told him I
Speaker 1: moved like that. I knew then't I didn't need nobody
Speaker 1: with me. I didn't need know nobody if you wasn't
Speaker 1: moving with me within God, I just moved by myself,
Speaker 1: you know. And it's and and and and this is
Speaker 1: that the way hip hop should be. That's the way,
Speaker 1: because that's the way life should be. You know, that's
Speaker 1: the way life should be. Like you don't need people
Speaker 1: to show who you are, prove who you are. If
Speaker 1: you are how you say you are, and you're on
Speaker 1: in that in a real way, you can move anywhere
Speaker 1: in this world and people. And I prove of that.
Speaker 1: I was telling the story earlier to Jeffanary about we
Speaker 1: came to New York, we got signed, people like, you're
Speaker 1: gonna go to Hollow. I was like, what's going to holler?
Speaker 1: So we took a cab from the hotel and he
Speaker 1: was like, he was like, where you want to go?
Speaker 1: Were like, we want to go to Hall and cab
Speaker 1: drop himself on Amsterdam and just me and pimp get
Speaker 1: out of cab and that's where we are. There's a barbershop.
Speaker 1: This is nine. It's a barbershop on Amster that we're
Speaker 1: going into the barbershop. We get a hack. I love you, brother,
Speaker 1: you know how much you've been through. We're trying to
Speaker 1: talk and it's funny because we're trying to talk about
Speaker 1: it on here. I know we can't talk about the
Speaker 1: studio session and be talking about how crazy got in
Speaker 1: the hood, your shot a little man, that slap dude
Speaker 1: behind that tongue ring. I can't. I can't thank you enough.
Speaker 1: We'll we're just talking about understand and all this other ship. No,
Speaker 1: but it's important for people to see me cry, because
Speaker 1: this is what they don't get to see, right. Hip
Speaker 1: hop is designed for ego like that. But when you
Speaker 1: love people and you think about them and they're not
Speaker 1: next you and you can't be next to you them,
Speaker 1: you're supposed to be like And so that's why I
Speaker 1: love talking through it. I love crime while I'm talking
Speaker 1: about something because that lets people know about us, we are,
Speaker 1: about what we're talking about you know, you know. You
Speaker 1: know what I think about it is it's like we
Speaker 1: just lost prodigy, so we can't ask have it right
Speaker 1: now the same way we couldn't ask you when yeah
Speaker 1: you can't. I can talk down. I can talk a
Speaker 1: lot easier. And it's not like and see people think
Speaker 1: you get choked up when it's like, Yo, how you
Speaker 1: felt about you know? I think about the little moments
Speaker 1: that's what choke you up, not about you know. It's
Speaker 1: for me when I think about him, I think about
Speaker 1: there's new cause and he went that he would have bought.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying when I look at the racing,
Speaker 1: When I look at the race like for real, like
Speaker 1: like people don't realize when Pimp pulled up in the
Speaker 1: binds that he's in big crimping. He was the first
Speaker 1: person on the street with that car. He was in
Speaker 1: Miami with that car. I remember Ray Kwen coming up
Speaker 1: to him. I remember Fat Joe coming up to him.
Speaker 1: Because people don't realize that I forgot what this because
Speaker 1: Carl spring bling that. But it was loud weekend back
Speaker 1: then the first time they did that in Miami, it
Speaker 1: was like it was a loud all this thing. So
Speaker 1: the Cheffer was in town, Joe was in telling everybody,
Speaker 1: and we're on Colin and Pimper just got that joint
Speaker 1: and nobody had that joint, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So it was a very very fantastic they and they
Speaker 1: put Pimp and people did. This was before Big Pepper,
Speaker 1: so let people know exactly what type of duty he was,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And it wasn't like I
Speaker 1: got it before. He was like, I got what y'all got.
Speaker 1: Were from the South, We we do. We can do
Speaker 1: anything anybody else could do, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But it was the honesty about Pimp that I think
Speaker 1: it's gets missed about the uk K legacy, no fault.
Speaker 1: That's the beautiful thing about you guys. It's like when
Speaker 1: I met you, I asked you, I swear to God,
Speaker 1: this is the best beautiful thing. Pampa was like, tell them, Nori,
Speaker 1: come on the studio, listen. This nigger analyzed every aspect
Speaker 1: of me. But that's exactly what I would have. Did
Speaker 1: you understand, like I would have this same exactive Pample
Speaker 1: looked at me, he was like it and I was like, damn.
Speaker 1: And then we funked through each other the whole like this,
Speaker 1: and you people would never know how how close this
Speaker 1: group was, like U Kane and Campona Noriega, because when
Speaker 1: people look at people, they think people are close because
Speaker 1: they do a bunch of songs, a bunch of songs,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But the real people that
Speaker 1: really have friendships in music, they don't even really do
Speaker 1: music together. We talk about family, we talk about children,
Speaker 1: we talk about contracts and legacy and ship, like real
Speaker 1: life ship. You don't be like, yo, let's do this
Speaker 1: and let's start this. That's not what real people do.
Speaker 1: Real people, like a company's flaking on me right in
Speaker 1: my ain't all you only live like ten minutes? How
Speaker 1: should I move on this? But like, yo, I want
Speaker 1: to go to the label and let like fifty rats loops,
Speaker 1: like it's not gonna do this. They got rats in
Speaker 1: New York up there they got and but let me
Speaker 1: tell you something. But I can't thank you so much
Speaker 1: too drunk, No, no, no, but listen, I am not you.
Speaker 1: I can't thank you so much because no, we all
Speaker 1: drink chaps to drink Champs, drink Champs finishes, drink Champs
Speaker 1: drink Jam. The thing is this. We ain't these other
Speaker 1: shows where we want to, like, you know, pull up
Speaker 1: gossip and all this ship. All we want to do
Speaker 1: is represent our hip hop legends. And today we're not
Speaker 1: only big en up you, but we're also bigging up
Speaker 1: your brother who's not here, PIMPSI. And we're also big
Speaker 1: enough Prodigy because Prodigy is not here, and we understand
Speaker 1: exactly what you guys are going through right now for
Speaker 1: real with you. And this is Drink Champs, and Drink
Speaker 1: Champs is only to big up hip hop, fuck everything
Speaker 1: else about life. Hip Hop should be saluted every fucking day.
Speaker 1: There's a war going on that my bud. I thank
Speaker 1: you so much, yo, Bunny, I thank you so much
Speaker 1: for me because I feel like my son is coming
Speaker 1: up with and I'm listen, buddy, There's no way I
Speaker 1: can thank you so much. Men together, the fact that
Speaker 1: you came to left right with me, you hang off,
Speaker 1: and that wasn't left right yesterday here. This is a
Speaker 1: very ill like. That's why I laughed so much when
Speaker 1: we were all standing in front of Sweet, because I
Speaker 1: don't think anybody thought you would have been who you
Speaker 1: were going to be. I don't think nobody really thought
Speaker 1: like you. People thought and me like and and who
Speaker 1: we are not because of what we were? Then that's
Speaker 1: the ill ship. That's the like, that's the ill ship.
Speaker 1: Like we're not even who we are now because of
Speaker 1: who we wasn't because we weren't scared to beat more
Speaker 1: than we are now. You know what I'm saying, That's
Speaker 1: why we are now. That's what I man so like
Speaker 1: I feel like questions. I feel like I'm just like
Speaker 1: I'm telling you I'm so good because I'm a fan
Speaker 1: of and just Bun. Just to know that when we
Speaker 1: all when I'm met Bunn and left right, that's such
Speaker 1: a memorable. I feel like I'm back in that and
Speaker 1: and I see it like it was yesterday. And is this,
Speaker 1: Like I said, there's intricac either of that day that
Speaker 1: we could never as deep as this. And I tell
Speaker 1: people all the time about that story. So it's so
Speaker 1: funny to talk about it here in this space because
Speaker 1: I talked about that story all the time, Like, Yo,
Speaker 1: you want to know when I really was in New York.
Speaker 1: You don't know when I really do in New York.
Speaker 1: Please tell us, like like drinking story, my mom number
Speaker 1: one moment and there's a lot but just literally like
Speaker 1: turning up the belver their bottle. And then like I
Speaker 1: felt like I was in Clocus because the nig the
Speaker 1: d T shirt, the quarter and I'm like it's one time,
Speaker 1: right on time. Same but so like we're sitting there
Speaker 1: with the corner and this is when Armadale Vodka it's
Speaker 1: popping right like we're supporting I'm sorry, but we're supporting
Speaker 1: support business like we are that but that was a
Speaker 1: move Armadale. Right, So I'm in New York. I'm with
Speaker 1: no read. I'm drinking Armadale like Nord's like yo, it
Speaker 1: goes over the so and not like not this side,
Speaker 1: like shout out the puff. But you know we had
Speaker 1: to magnim had just being real where the hood. So
Speaker 1: I got this huge bottom a vodka. You know, it's
Speaker 1: just crazy. I'm in the Queens. I'm in left right.
Speaker 1: And then like just like clocks and literally like the
Speaker 1: old school, like it's literally what my man was driving
Speaker 1: past your boy Clockers. He's in the same detective like
Speaker 1: Lincoln Call and I'm like, really, word, that's what you
Speaker 1: came to New York foot And he's like now you're good,
Speaker 1: and apparently I was good. Yeah, but I watched a
Speaker 1: couple of dudes can slap. Somebody got shot the five
Speaker 1: a couple of dudes. I shot to five yard. It
Speaker 1: was it really. I was like, damn not because it happened.
Speaker 1: I'm like, Yo, this is the same ship. Though. If
Speaker 1: I was on this corner and you right, and this
Speaker 1: should happened, the same ship would have happened, and the
Speaker 1: whole night. As the night progress, I'm like, the world together.
Speaker 1: That's all can say. You know, that's exactly what we
Speaker 1: should do. Nothing scared me. Nothing surprised me, exactly. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You not just standing mean, nothing
Speaker 1: surprised me. I'm like, I'm gonna tell this funny story.
Speaker 1: Just one of the first things that happened. Little man
Speaker 1: comes up. North's like, yo, but just so you know,
Speaker 1: little man, what we don't do when we eat bananas,
Speaker 1: we don't eat h hot dogs. That I was like,
Speaker 1: this is crazy because you asked a little dude from
Speaker 1: where I grew up if you want to pops, and
Speaker 1: they will look at you crazy, right, And it's it's
Speaker 1: it's not that there's anything wrong with eating pops, right,
Speaker 1: in general. It's just that's against my rules. Rules continued,
Speaker 1: but it was very funny, like and he's looking at
Speaker 1: north the whole top, he said, and kid was less
Speaker 1: than twelve. And then the kids something that any kid
Speaker 1: less than they teat this, something like to get finished.
Speaker 1: But listen, you know what I ate downstairs? And ate
Speaker 1: a hot dog or everything on it? No hot dog?
Speaker 1: A fact, what did I eat downstairs? Everything on it?
Speaker 1: No dog? I get a hot dog? Okay, continue, but no,
Speaker 1: there's nothing saying to that. The same noise, the same
Speaker 1: black Let me tell you something. This is not the
Speaker 1: back in the days, or this is not nowadays. When
Speaker 1: I asked bumby to come to my hood. This wasn't
Speaker 1: the nice hood. This was the hot That was when
Speaker 1: niggas was like, yo, you know these buildings got underground,
Speaker 1: like shooting things like if they come, just run with
Speaker 1: following me. All we gotta do is make it to
Speaker 1: the building. He's like, all we want to do, the
Speaker 1: say all we have to They said, all we gotta
Speaker 1: just make it to the building. And they don't know
Speaker 1: if we go up or go down, so we're good.
Speaker 1: Left right out underground ship. So it's like, yo, that
Speaker 1: was that time, and it was literally it was like,
Speaker 1: you know, if anything happened, just run with us. It
Speaker 1: was a time and now all we gotta do is
Speaker 1: make it to the building. All you gotta do is
Speaker 1: make it to the building. And the words. I was like, okay,
Speaker 1: and I ain't got the bump me now like I
Speaker 1: got now I gotta tore menis because so I ain't
Speaker 1: got to bump you. But they was like, all we
Speaker 1: gotta do because we're on the corner. We had the
Speaker 1: light and so it's a building right here. There's a
Speaker 1: building right there, and it's it's like yo, be we're good. Ah,
Speaker 1: we gotta just make it to the building. They don't
Speaker 1: know where we're going. The DT's got to catch us
Speaker 1: before we getting the building. Once we're getting the building,
Speaker 1: they don't be going up or we're going down. Intellects,
Speaker 1: it's beautiful because that's sorry, no, no, but that was
Speaker 1: the New York I wanted to see. That's what I
Speaker 1: wanted New York. I'm all enough to remember the warriors
Speaker 1: and ship, so New York had to be a certain
Speaker 1: way where I got here. I didn't want to go
Speaker 1: to Junior's with jee shout out the puff. But that's
Speaker 1: not what I wanted. I know, I'm taking the piss.
Speaker 1: I'll come right back. I'm so sorry I did not,
Speaker 1: But we were very We were close to the buildings,
Speaker 1: but I wasn't tripping it. I wasn't tripping. But that's
Speaker 1: the one thing I remember distinctly. Yes, yo, so, But
Speaker 1: it's not like we WoT to selling crap. We were
Speaker 1: drinking big If it was, who did I be allowed
Speaker 1: that I met? There? Can you talking about talking about that?
Speaker 1: That's why that's where I'm very for the first time. Literally,
Speaker 1: it's crazy. Showed me too, but she got real, you know, so,
Speaker 1: bun Man, So what would you think, um, before we
Speaker 1: get up out of here, what would pimps think? This
Speaker 1: whole generation right now? I think you think. I think
Speaker 1: he would love the fact that young people are getting
Speaker 1: paid for the music, because we used to have to
Speaker 1: try to figure out just how to get paid for
Speaker 1: putting the record out. Nowadays you get paid for from
Speaker 1: the record out, from downloads, from streaming, all these other things,
Speaker 1: So you get paid off of one song ten different
Speaker 1: ways if you know how to work the game. We
Speaker 1: were just trying to figure out how to get paid
Speaker 1: from putting a record out, So I think you know,
Speaker 1: from that aspect, he would be happy of the freedom
Speaker 1: that autists have. But on the other right, but on
Speaker 1: the other side, he would be I think he would
Speaker 1: be disappointed and a lack of honesty, you know. Lat yeah,
Speaker 1: like because we're here to like right now, expose everything
Speaker 1: that's fake. But if you're a fake, you can't expose
Speaker 1: anything because it would expose you. And that's what he
Speaker 1: would be disappointed about. Pamper never had a problem with
Speaker 1: who people were. It was about people pretending about who
Speaker 1: they were. That was his problem. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: If you're gamester, you're game say. If you're hipster, your hipster,
Speaker 1: if you straight, get whatever, just be who you tell
Speaker 1: me when I meet you. Just be that every time
Speaker 1: I see you, and I can live and if I
Speaker 1: like that, if I can accept that, I'm good with that.
Speaker 1: But don't visit seen thousand niggas told pimp Nor was
Speaker 1: a real nigga. He still wanted to me, I gotta
Speaker 1: meet you. He looked at me, sir, and then he
Speaker 1: hugged me the whole night. Tell him and it was
Speaker 1: It was funny because pimps like yo, man, I'm so
Speaker 1: happy that this nigs who he said that the people
Speaker 1: said he was. I'm so happy that he was who
Speaker 1: you said he was. If you and Keith Murder, you
Speaker 1: and Keith Murray, um, like what exactly? Who we where?
Speaker 1: He thought that we're going to be. You are everything
Speaker 1: we thought there was gonna be before walking the ball shop.
Speaker 1: What happened? We went in there, We was like we
Speaker 1: were from Texas and he's like, you gotta be you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, like what you're doing in the homes,
Speaker 1: Like we want to get a hair cut, we want
Speaker 1: to get weed, and we want to get some food,
Speaker 1: and Niggs like we just want thet You say something
Speaker 1: before you can ren this. Listen, pimp. See, didn't he
Speaker 1: give a fuck? We took the way that and he
Speaker 1: checked me in New York. It's not like I was
Speaker 1: the sexist on Houston said these nigga told me your
Speaker 1: real nigga. Pimp. He shaw to rump in his head
Speaker 1: like just I said, oh ship, I've never been checking
Speaker 1: this way, so I just had to ride with it.
Speaker 1: I was just like, oh yeah, yeah, definitely, that's what

Speaker 1: me and said, make sure that's fun and that's real
Speaker 1: ship because it was important for us. We were so
Speaker 1: far removed from a lot of this ship. We moved

Speaker 1: say to you, but we love you and we love

Speaker 1: Game I guess when this comes out, Game times out
Speaker 1: right now. That's not even a single. I just know
Speaker 1: still take over the show, take over and everything because
Speaker 1: I okay let him to single pits DJ, so like
Speaker 1: you know, you worked with them, and you said that
Speaker 1: every time. Every time, you're like you're still about Vinyl,
Speaker 1: Like a lot of think he don't like, we don't
Speaker 1: know Vinyl was like that was what a DJ's dream
Speaker 1: was not this laptop ship, you know, freestyle cutting this,
Speaker 1: so I know it's deep. Ye know. If you go
Speaker 1: and look on the Ryan Dirty album on the on
Speaker 1: the pictures on the insert, there's a picture of me,
Speaker 1: Pimp C and DJ Screw and there's a piece of
Speaker 1: vinyl behind him, and that's the test press from the
Speaker 1: first record we ever did. Because Screw was like he
Speaker 1: was the after Hour DJ. So when I got the
Speaker 1: test press, I brought it to him because he was
Speaker 1: the only DJ I knew like mixing. So I used
Speaker 1: to go to the spot to shoot dice. So I
Speaker 1: brought it straight to him and was like, yo, and
Speaker 1: this was old, this is ninety it's ninety two, like
Speaker 1: February ninety two. And I'm like, yo, play this, let
Speaker 1: me know what you think. And I'm on the pool
Speaker 1: table shooting dice because that's where we had to shoot dice.
Speaker 1: And after I was on the pool table in the
Speaker 1: back and he plays the ship and he was like it.
Speaker 1: He played again, like you'll keep that to and keep
Speaker 1: it popping, and and I'm like, I'm I'm a hundred
Speaker 1: miles away from where I grew up and I'm in
Speaker 1: the after I was at three and one shooting dice
Speaker 1: just to make sure my see what my record due
Speaker 1: to connect with people. And so Screw took that record
Speaker 1: and put it on the wall in the room where
Speaker 1: he mixed that. And when we went in that room,
Speaker 1: which is literally about eight years later, and we go
Speaker 1: in that room, you know, he pulled it out because
Speaker 1: it's on the walls, and so we literally posed in
Speaker 1: front of the picture. And at this time he wasn't
Speaker 1: in DJ Screw when I gave him this record, He's
Speaker 1: just the after our DJ. We're in the after hour
Speaker 1: the club this is stupens are on like the dance floor.
Speaker 1: We're shooting dice on the pool table in the back
Speaker 1: of that bitch, right next to Gallagher, my nigga. We're
Speaker 1: shooting dice in that bitch or three in the morning,
Speaker 1: and he played my record and niggas, it's probably forty
Speaker 1: niggas in the after hours, and he's like, like that ship,
Speaker 1: that ship tight, I ain't play that ship again, you know.
Speaker 1: And then I'm like, you might have something. And then
Speaker 1: three months later we're in New York and callumb A
Speaker 1: Circle getting ready to go to Job Records. Forty second,
Speaker 1: just tell me something good. I got the test press vinyl,
Speaker 1: and I brought it to the after hours, like my
Speaker 1: nigga run that. Let me know what you think. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like it's amazing, It's probably gonna
Speaker 1: be a little weird. No, no, nothing is with because
Speaker 1: because I came to New York in ninety two before Giuliani,
Speaker 1: so I remember the weird New York so after Pimp
Speaker 1: like because he went off right he said, zones is different. Now,
Speaker 1: how was your life after that? Because and then he
Speaker 1: made it clear he said this is not this was
Speaker 1: this was not the first time that this is not
Speaker 1: the first time that Pippa said nothing that I didn't
Speaker 1: know that, but that I didn't know Pemper was gonna
Speaker 1: say what he said. If you look at the wire,
Speaker 1: there's a moment where Big G says, um, well, I
Speaker 1: can't remember Slim Charles and on the white, but it's
Speaker 1: it's Big G for d C. And he's like, even
Speaker 1: if it's a lie, we gotta ride on that lie.
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying my brother lie, but no matter
Speaker 1: what my brother says in the moment, we gotta move
Speaker 1: on that even if it's a lie, we're gonna have
Speaker 1: to go to war on that lot. Now, when me
Speaker 1: and him get in the back room while the shots
Speaker 1: in the front, me and him gotta have words in
Speaker 1: the back about why we're in this situation. That's what
Speaker 1: I love you. But the reality is, and there was
Speaker 1: a lot of moments what would be like he would
Speaker 1: get out there and be like, yo, you know what
Speaker 1: fox on and so my wife is right there, my
Speaker 1: wife know him the line. My wife was probably on
Speaker 1: the side and be like, that's what we had to day,
Speaker 1: you know, and we go home and again, even if
Speaker 1: it ain't right or even IF's a misunderstanding in that moment,
Speaker 1: we gotta move on that we got. We gotta move
Speaker 1: on that, you know. And it was it was very
Speaker 1: rough for us as a family and ship like that
Speaker 1: because I don't I don't talk about a lot of
Speaker 1: because that ship was real ship, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So I don't talk about a lot of that ship.
Speaker 1: I'll protect the integrity of my family. But just the
Speaker 1: reality is that even if I didn't agree with him,
Speaker 1: I was riding with him. That was that wasn't even understood.
Speaker 1: I mean, that wasn't even something that had to be understood.
Speaker 1: Whatever happens in that moment, people's like, this is what
Speaker 1: we're saying. Even if I didn't agree in that movement,
Speaker 1: if we're in front of niggers. He also beginning that
Speaker 1: Bunny ain't got nothing to do much. But I always
Speaker 1: had something to do with you knew, because the Pimple
Speaker 1: was my little brother. Damn that you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: People come with my older brother. Comp was younger than me.
Speaker 1: Component is older than me. So my whole thing with
Speaker 1: pimp was, like I understand that I understood that were
Speaker 1: things he didn't really understand about certain things about how
Speaker 1: to handle ship. People had what they he didn't have
Speaker 1: what they call inner dialogue, right like, I feel this
Speaker 1: way about this person. Should I say this? Should I
Speaker 1: not say? That didn't even exist? That didn't even exist.
Speaker 1: I got addressed this right here, right now. So that
Speaker 1: was whether that was a rapper, a nigger on the street,
Speaker 1: whether it was the CEO did yeah, yeah. But even
Speaker 1: if that was like Verry White to see you all
Speaker 1: the record company, it would be I remember be in
Speaker 1: a room with like the person that the term in
Speaker 1: my future a bit nigger, and then get up and
Speaker 1: walk out, and I'm like, well, I guess we understand
Speaker 1: where were all that. You know what I'm saying, So
Speaker 1: because I talked to you about a year so but
Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna be like, yo, I don't know what
Speaker 1: he said, but that's not what we If that's how
Speaker 1: he felt, then we'll talk about that on the plane
Speaker 1: on the way home, like maybe that wasn't the best
Speaker 1: way to do this, but at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: Pemple loved this ship. Say, and this is what people
Speaker 1: don't understand. I'll say this giving away a lot about
Speaker 1: because my wife looks up every now and then just
Speaker 1: get But I will say, like this was Pimp's life.
Speaker 1: There was no plan B for Pimp, for this ship,
Speaker 1: and if there were certain moments where he felt a
Speaker 1: certain way, even if I didn't really understand it, all right,
Speaker 1: all right, well, I guess this meeting is over. But
Speaker 1: you're a bitch, you know what I'm saying. You who
Speaker 1: sneakers don't understand what we're trying to do fun this ship. Mommy,
Speaker 1: we out of here. Well, guys, I guess you can't
Speaker 1: see we have each other's numbers. But what he said,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And on the home like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we shouldn't have done it like that. Yeah, but in
Speaker 1: the moment, but right a wrong, we gotta ride on that.
Speaker 1: Shout out to big G your But I don't know
Speaker 1: if you ever you got a new album coming out? Yes, well,
Speaker 1: I don't know if you ever because this is a
Speaker 1: different type of hip hop show. There's a different type
Speaker 1: of place where you at and at our place, we

Speaker 1: it's going down in a very real way. Right now
Speaker 1: you made it home safe. That's a beautiful thing. That's
Speaker 1: the thing. There's there's no person we were other big
Speaker 1: up right now and drink champs and revote history. Then

Speaker 1: because if if it's called me a few times in
Speaker 1: his life, and I'd be surprised if I didn't give
Speaker 1: you what you know, but if drama smalls, these were
Speaker 1: people that were very genuine in their love and support.

Speaker 1: ain't got that. I just I really funk with you,
Speaker 1: and I'm doing this and if you want to be
Speaker 1: a part of it, I love that you be a
Speaker 1: part of it. And I remember my wife being like
Speaker 1: my wife was like, YO, why are you doing this stuff?
Speaker 1: And I'm like, yo, please trust me because of you,
Speaker 1: because of drama, because of small but there wasn't a music.
Speaker 1: Woun't being real because I didn't get because it's very
Speaker 1: easy for me to sit here and let you give
Speaker 1: me accolades. But if it is a real, dude, and
Speaker 1: if it knows that there's never been any money exchange,
Speaker 1: just been real, It's never been any and I just
Speaker 1: wanted to see him win and he and he always
Speaker 1: wanted to see me. When there's been times where people
Speaker 1: would check up the efit more than it's been. Really,
Speaker 1: they're being really a lot of times, a couple of buns.
Speaker 1: There's a couple of months if but no, if it
Speaker 1: had up end and he was like, yo, but this
Speaker 1: is drink with me. You gotta stop taking over even
Speaker 1: with the group. I'm gonna be that. But there's a
Speaker 1: lot and let us make you up. This is not
Speaker 1: my wife is over, it's not the show. Let's talk
Speaker 1: about him now. That's begging him up. Yeah, that's what
Speaker 1: you're edited. We'll put this on the end. No, I'm
Speaker 1: very uncomfortable to sit around and just kind of like
Speaker 1: I'm in a new place now where I don't want
Speaker 1: to celebrate me. I want to celebrate God and people
Speaker 1: that have been good. We're celebrating God, what's what I'm saying?
Speaker 1: And so like when people start leading on me, gotta
Speaker 1: but my wife is like, Yo, shut the funk up,
Speaker 1: it's time to go twelve minutes, goddamn bub Let me
Speaker 1: tell you something. Us in New York City were recognized.
Speaker 1: We knew what y'all was doing in the Houston and
Speaker 1: the authors, we understood what y'all was doing. But you
Speaker 1: know what happened. It's like a drinking game when you
Speaker 1: say you want more, No, because my wife, but let
Speaker 1: me just tell it. But listen, let me tell you something, bunny,
Speaker 1: But you should be saluted every day on Monday, do Sunday.
Speaker 1: And that's what we're gonna continue to do. And drink champs.
Speaker 1: Drink chips. First of all, Dree Champs is everything I
Speaker 1: thought it was gonna be. It was, yes, everything I
Speaker 1: thought it was gonna be because I thought I was
Speaker 1: gonna be the dude they came in and talked that
Speaker 1: didn't get drunk. Yom listen because you know why we
Speaker 1: select we celebrate hip hop. And the thing about it
Speaker 1: is in the hip hop. Hip hop don't set up
Speaker 1: a hip hop what the fund is our problem? This
Speaker 1: is hip hop right here. Nah, it's not hip hop.
Speaker 1: It's hip hop and bun Pam and pimp check me.
Speaker 1: I've never been checked before hip hop. So when checked me,
Speaker 1: I said, there, I gotta check myself too. Let we
Speaker 1: checked the end. The thing about it is we want
Speaker 1: to continue to support people like you, boy. That's why
Speaker 1: this works the because this wasn't about money and sponsorship
Speaker 1: and none of that ship You've been out even at
Speaker 1: the like I said, it's funny because like what, you
Speaker 1: ain't gonna pat yourself on the back. That's that's for
Speaker 1: other things to do. But dream Chaps is Dream Chaps
Speaker 1: is killing it right now. But even in the midst
Speaker 1: of that, you kept the format and the platform opening.
Speaker 1: He's like, yo, bot, what's up? And I can show
Speaker 1: you my phone. It's literally I've been hitting month. Come
Speaker 1: funk with me because we tell because we tell the
Speaker 1: left Frac story to everybody. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: and we got to get it out there. And I
Speaker 1: woun't have to tell it no more that we can
Speaker 1: just talk about this story and how many hours we
Speaker 1: sat and sweet this story. But this is this is
Speaker 1: a beautiful thing. Shout and shout out to revote for
Speaker 1: supporting you because you know, listen, Charlemagne, you gotta relax.
Speaker 1: I got a little problem with you. Wait now, Charlotte Magne,
Speaker 1: you gotta stop this specum of vault because of the
Speaker 1: vault is what's holding us down. That is a different
Speaker 1: episode for a different day. But I can't thank you
Speaker 1: so much because you know why I want to thank you.
Speaker 1: I'm not only want to thank you because you're deserved
Speaker 1: to be thanked, but I want to thank you for
Speaker 1: staying here and understanding that hip hop has to be respected.
Speaker 1: And the thing about it is so many people they say,
Speaker 1: they sit back and they say ah, and then you
Speaker 1: know what they don't do. They don't the actual bars,
Speaker 1: don't delude the actual culture. It's a difference between being
Speaker 1: a creative something me and they inherit or something I
Speaker 1: need you describe that hip hop is something that we
Speaker 1: were part of the creation. The new generation hip hop
Speaker 1: is something they inherited. So there's a different dynamic as
Speaker 1: the how hip hop We were there to create it.
Speaker 1: They it was something they got on their birthday. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You know that's something they got
Speaker 1: for Christmas? Hip hop or something they got for Christmas,
Speaker 1: and it's not a bad thing, but they have a
Speaker 1: different discipline and a different dynamic that we have. And
Speaker 1: if we and if we look at it like that,
Speaker 1: right that hip hop was a right for us, right
Speaker 1: a writer passage, but for them it was a gift.
Speaker 1: And if we look at it like that, then we'll
Speaker 1: understand the dynamic between us and the next generation. And
Speaker 1: you won't fault people for not being of the culture
Speaker 1: or understanding like being real health hop and none of
Speaker 1: that ship it was. We earned it and we gave
Speaker 1: it to them, and some of them don't do what
Speaker 1: we thought they would do with it. But to judge
Speaker 1: them is to judge our children, because we all got
Speaker 1: kids and they don't all do what we thought they
Speaker 1: were supposed to do. So and we're the children that
Speaker 1: they're the children of hip hop. They're not the children
Speaker 1: of us, but we are. We are also children in
Speaker 1: hip hop. So we have to remember what we did
Speaker 1: when Cool, when Cool HERC and all of them gave
Speaker 1: it to us. We didn't really do what all of
Speaker 1: them expected us to do with it, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But it's still hip hop still exists, So
Speaker 1: we can't be mad because some of them are still
Speaker 1: keeping hip hop alive. It may not be what we
Speaker 1: wanted them to do with it. But if you're a parent,
Speaker 1: you're just happy your kids alive, right, You're not even
Speaker 1: You're not even if your kids you just if you
Speaker 1: wake up in the morning, your kids alive. We got
Speaker 1: a chance and that's how I feel wake up the
Speaker 1: whole We Got a Chance album. But he said, it's
Speaker 1: that old niggas stop acting like you knew because Tupac
Speaker 1: had a nose ring too, because losy Verd who I
Speaker 1: feel like he's speaking specifically because he has a nose
Speaker 1: ring and he clothes And it's very easy for us
Speaker 1: to judge young niggas based on what young niggas do right,
Speaker 1: and it's and it's easy for us to judge old
Speaker 1: people right because we look at the dynamic of how
Speaker 1: we got it right. So we look at the people
Speaker 1: for us, who got hip hop from disco, and we're
Speaker 1: looking at people aftercls. We got hip hop from pop
Speaker 1: records and it being a part of the mainstream, and
Speaker 1: we you know, for us, if people don't go through
Speaker 1: the struggle to get to where we got, then we
Speaker 1: feel different. But You don't live your life for your
Speaker 1: children to have a struggle. You live your life for
Speaker 1: your children have it easier. And now we're sitting here
Speaker 1: judging our children because they had it easier than we had.
Speaker 1: We shouldn't be doing that. We should be raising them.
Speaker 1: We're just not our job to judge them. So you
Speaker 1: have to love them and raise him. And you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, because when your children do, you don't
Speaker 1: cut your children off. Okay, how fucked up your children get.
Speaker 1: You don't cut your children off. You bring them back
Speaker 1: in and you try again. You bring them back to
Speaker 1: the principles and made you who you were. And you
Speaker 1: just keep praying that one day they'll wake up like
Speaker 1: you woke up. Because they're eighteen and we like your
Speaker 1: but drink Champs, drink cha down, drink Champs. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: I can't think you're enough. And then you know the
Speaker 1: crazy thing is I never ever, ever, like kind of
Speaker 1: claimed that I met no And that's what's that's what's crazy.
Speaker 1: And like I said, hip hop artists that really funk
Speaker 1: with each other don't do music right. Like some some
Speaker 1: of this very exponsive, But the people in hip out
Speaker 1: that really bond bond over real life ship. We meet
Speaker 1: people in real life scenarios. We realize, Joe, if I
Speaker 1: need to talk to somebody, I'm gonna call that dude.
Speaker 1: The rest of these niggas is just on TV and
Speaker 1: just a different type of nigga. But when she get real, Like,
Speaker 1: if me and my girl ever get into it, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna call that nick. Right, if me and my partner
Speaker 1: ever get into it, I'm gonna call that Nick. And
Speaker 1: you're blessed if you can find these people in the culture.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, because the numbers is way
Speaker 1: different from when we started. It was like dirty niggas
Speaker 1: and hip hop, and it's like I meet thirty niggas
Speaker 1: while I'm in New York before I get back to
Speaker 1: the airport that want to wrap. But it's a beautiful
Speaker 1: thing when when people who are in the same struggle
Speaker 1: find each other, and when we do, we don't exploit it,
Speaker 1: you know, because you're probably mad about your deal. I'm
Speaker 1: mad about my deal, and we don't want to let
Speaker 1: these know. We gotta little Like the only time I've
Speaker 1: ever actually done a song where everybody on the song
Speaker 1: was like really friends was um, we did a song
Speaker 1: for um, what is it to be in medicine in
Speaker 1: South central whatever, And it's it's you g K PIMC.
Speaker 1: It's you G k um Lord Jama and Keith Murray
Speaker 1: and those are like some of the closest friends that
Speaker 1: I've ever had in hip hop nor including and that's
Speaker 1: like the only song Niggas ever did. But those are
Speaker 1: people that like when I see them, I hugged them, like, Yo, nigger, Yo,
Speaker 1: you remember when you remember you beat We smashed on
Speaker 1: dude in front of the club and body have the party.
Speaker 1: I remember, like Yo took Washington and they haven't bought
Speaker 1: weed and told me he was the diggie's hood and
Speaker 1: like that, Like it's very very genuine moments when they
Speaker 1: have a very genuine moment with you that you tell
Speaker 1: your people about. I tell my people about now we
Speaker 1: tell the world about. And that's the thing before we
Speaker 1: get about it. Yeah, I don't know how much love
Speaker 1: you really realize that New York love you do you
Speaker 1: realize that I knew that when I came in into Amsterdam, Okay,
Speaker 1: and no, no, I knew that when I came in
Speaker 1: the left rot right, I didn't have to be anything
Speaker 1: other than who I was. I was just a regular
Speaker 1: nigger from the hood, and niggas received it and I
Speaker 1: saw it happened. I didn't even I didn't know. No
Speaker 1: nobody gave me. I didn't. I didn't under Yo. He
Speaker 1: just slapped dude. Okay, but it was a reason why,
Speaker 1: my Yo, those dudes. You've been sitting there talking too
Speaker 1: far with him and him and they go fight. Okay,
Speaker 1: now that I know why they need to fight. That
Speaker 1: was That was fine. I'm not gonna go into it.
Speaker 1: But everything that happened happened under the same scenarios where
Speaker 1: it would have happened where I grew up. And that
Speaker 1: for me was so eye opening, like yo, and for
Speaker 1: me it confirmed everything like that. Only is the world
Speaker 1: to get that nigg is from together, you know. And
Speaker 1: I talked about the ghetto, the hood, and the trap.
Speaker 1: Those are three different places. They can all exist on
Speaker 1: one corner. But the ghetto, the hood and the trap
Speaker 1: with three different things and different people come for different things.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing, but is people, you have the
Speaker 1: worldwide ghetto past everywhere you the same way I'm talking
Speaker 1: to you. You can go to Atlanta and do this.
Speaker 1: You can go to Pittsburgh and do this, and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say this, and we're gonna shut it down with this,
Speaker 1: shut it down. My wife makes sure that I won't
Speaker 1: just use it for chicken wings we got just because
Speaker 1: you're going to the hood. It's always a good chicken wings.
Speaker 1: And if you got a hood pass, you can go
Speaker 1: to the real hood spot. But if you got if
Speaker 1: you got another of a hood pass to going to
Speaker 1: any hood and get chicken wings, you should be doing

Speaker 1: hanging out with us, and that and that and that
Speaker 1: thing so extended play August twenty night, Monday. Let's talk
Speaker 1: about that before we get up out of here. I've
Speaker 1: been trying to do an album, end up doing that
Speaker 1: for the two songs white People like look still do
Speaker 1: an album White People the movie you said White People,
Speaker 1: No White People owe me money, white white white people
Speaker 1: always wife does your money? Why you said, Look, I
Speaker 1: know you want to do your album. You might not
Speaker 1: get it out before the years over. Put some music out.
Speaker 1: You can still let people know where you're coming from.
Speaker 1: You still can do your album like you want to.
Speaker 1: You still get them checks. I'm like, I'm like, we
Speaker 1: got forty two songs. We ain't putting a twelve on
Speaker 1: the album anyway. Shout out to the solo album. Ain't
Speaker 1: tell you not about that, but that's coming two later.
Speaker 1: But she was like, just put something on, like she said,
Speaker 1: because everybody's out there doing things and they're trying to
Speaker 1: do things. She's like, Yo, you got this music, you've
Speaker 1: been sitting on it. Let the world no throw it
Speaker 1: out there because we got a different worldview. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to spend my whole life trying to save the game
Speaker 1: in the streets or whatever. And I realized by saving myself,
Speaker 1: that's how I saved my brother. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like I've been trying to save my brother, but I
Speaker 1: can't save my brother until I saved myself. I found
Speaker 1: myself in a just being real, just so I can't
Speaker 1: do nothing for other people. And I do for myself.
Speaker 1: And so my wife is like, look, this is what
Speaker 1: you want to do, then we're gonna stick to it.
Speaker 1: It's like going the studio. I did forty songs and
Speaker 1: forty two and she was like, this is what this
Speaker 1: is exactly what you wanted to do, So keep that. Now,
Speaker 1: what do we do with what's what else we got?
Speaker 1: And I was like, well, we'll put that out later.
Speaker 1: She's like, na fu later. People need to hear what
Speaker 1: you're talking about now because we're trying to do the
Speaker 1: right thing. Wife is my sister. I don't know, and
Speaker 1: just being really closer together. You know. I didn't say
Speaker 1: when you're drunk, you don't lie. I'm just being honest.
Speaker 1: And she was like, look, she was like, look we
Speaker 1: can do this. We can because my whole thing is
Speaker 1: like I want to bite the allet. I mean, people
Speaker 1: call me to O G. I never called myself o G.
Speaker 1: Niggas called me o G. There's a connotation that comes
Speaker 1: with that when you accept being called as an o G,
Speaker 1: that at some point you gotta bite the bullet for
Speaker 1: the next generation. So my album was the Biting was
Speaker 1: a concept of biting the bullet for the next generation.
Speaker 1: She's like, look, you have that, but you still need
Speaker 1: to let people know. Look the leadership coming, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying before that, like like let people know
Speaker 1: you're a leader and then be a humble leader. So
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, so cool, so we'll come out,
Speaker 1: letting me go the South still here, just like Hove
Speaker 1: just came out. And my thing was, this is so funny.
Speaker 1: I thought Hope was coming in December, so I was like,
Speaker 1: I need to get out before Hope whole drop. Like yo,
Speaker 1: so now we're good. We're good. So it was like
Speaker 1: and and and I love where Hove came from. Um,
Speaker 1: a person like jay doesn't have to be vulnerable, but
Speaker 1: that that that's so. That's so it's honorable for you
Speaker 1: to say that because you have one of the most
Speaker 1: honorable records that jay Z has ever made. Is like,
Speaker 1: jay Z doesn't ever have to be anything but jay Z. Right,
Speaker 1: this is I think the closest we've seen is Sean
Speaker 1: right on Music talk about it. Well, I mean, I'm bumby.
Speaker 1: My wife doesn't call me bumby. Myife doesn't even call me.
Speaker 1: My mom does, didn't call me bunt me, Your wife
Speaker 1: don't even Yeah, I'm not even my wife's favorite rapper.
Speaker 1: So the dynamic is good wife and I have to
Speaker 1: assume that there's a there's a similar maybe your wife favor.
Speaker 1: I know my wife's Savy rapp. Who is j Z.
Speaker 1: We gotta sucking up, you know, because I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: my masculinity. My mascul my masculinity is not built on
Speaker 1: my wife fantasy. If you don't go on my wife's reality,
Speaker 1: you know who that is. You know what I'm saying
Speaker 1: that is. I don't worry about black, but you know
Speaker 1: what that is. That's a real man. I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: real man can less. I don't care less. But that's now.
Speaker 1: That's now. When she first told me that, I felt
Speaker 1: a certain way, you know, and my wife did a
Speaker 1: very good job made me feel secure about the fact
Speaker 1: that what I was doing the radio or what I
Speaker 1: love it. But it's a different thing. You know. If
Speaker 1: and he um his girl was in Throng song that
Speaker 1: was in Big Pimpinson and he was in she was
Speaker 1: not he she was girl girl. She was to bring
Speaker 1: this up. She was in a budget videos. She was
Speaker 1: one girl at the time and she no not no,
Speaker 1: you know what, let me can I say something about this.
Speaker 1: If you're very concerned about the person that you want
Speaker 1: to be with, pass you can throw away the future
Speaker 1: this na. Can we just say that because I can
Speaker 1: guarantee you if you're a man worried about how many
Speaker 1: dudes your girl fuck you probably three four times before
Speaker 1: y'all came together, is that especially if you got money?
Speaker 1: But and that can I can I go? There? Could
Speaker 1: I just go? My pastor told me that there's no
Speaker 1: man built in this world that can handle what a
Speaker 1: woman can handle. A woman can handle her man dealing
Speaker 1: with more than one man. But if a man finds
Speaker 1: out his woman step with more than one dude, that's
Speaker 1: how women get killed. Like that's murder, suicide all day.
Speaker 1: God built women to handle things that man could never handle,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And we're built to handle
Speaker 1: things physically like hit. I'm gonna tell you some real
Speaker 1: ship God built man to handle. I'm gonna keep it real.
Speaker 1: God built man to handle ship on his shoulder. God
Speaker 1: build one and handle things in their heart right, so
Speaker 1: we can handle the weight of the physical weight of
Speaker 1: the world, but not the emotional. And you got a
Speaker 1: good woman is a good woman that can hold you
Speaker 1: woman that can hold you down when the emotional weight
Speaker 1: of the world down. My wife and my room, going
Speaker 1: the room with your wife, and I'm very love and
Speaker 1: take and we will close it out with this. Nor
Speaker 1: You're not very lucky that as we go into these
Speaker 1: latest stags with our wife, um, as we transition from
Speaker 1: music to the next level, that we have the same
Speaker 1: support system because who it was very easy to be
Speaker 1: uplifted as an m C. Outside of that, it's very rough.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of anxiety, there's a lot of depression.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of stress. And if you don't have
Speaker 1: a woman, you gotta go to drugs. You gotta go
Speaker 1: to alcohol, you gotta go to pills, you gotta go
Speaker 1: to sex, you gotta go to everything except that. And
Speaker 1: in my weakest moments where I felt like I need
Speaker 1: to smoke more weeks, I need to drink more liquor.
Speaker 1: God bless my wife, Like you know, you need more God,
Speaker 1: you need more family, you need more you. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, You need more you and so and
Speaker 1: that's what this new music is about. And even me
Speaker 1: being here and being in position to do this podcast
Speaker 1: was about being honest about I have anxiety as an artist.
Speaker 1: I get depressed about maybe I'm not in two thousand
Speaker 1: and seventeen, who I was a seven or ninety seven
Speaker 1: or whatever. But that doesn't mean I'm not a good man.
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean I can't provide. Right, here's a reality
Speaker 1: that a lot of artists have to deal with, and
Speaker 1: I'm glad we get to talk about this East all
Speaker 1: that come into the game. You have a record, you
Speaker 1: get paid for that record, and you assume that your
Speaker 1: life is based on that record. So what you're getting
Speaker 1: paid for that record, you assume that's what you're gonna
Speaker 1: get paid for the rest of your life. And even
Speaker 1: if you find a rang a range of way, Okay,
Speaker 1: this is what the show is like from here on out.
Speaker 1: Maybe five thousand more or five thous and less, but
Speaker 1: this is what the show is. So you said, Okay,
Speaker 1: I can live my life around that, right. I got
Speaker 1: a wife, I got two kids. I can live my
Speaker 1: life based on what I'm getting paid. And you have
Speaker 1: a third kid, and you have a fourth kid. Then
Speaker 1: your kids graduate and you got a kid going to college,
Speaker 1: you got a second kid. God, for a bit, you know,
Speaker 1: you're ino a situation like I said, God for a bit,
Speaker 1: but it's a beautiful thing because every child is a blessing.
Speaker 1: Then when your kids have a kid, so you're still
Speaker 1: getting paid in two thousand seventeen, which you got paid
Speaker 1: for two thousand seven for a show when you only
Speaker 1: had two responsibilities. But now you've got five responsibilities. You
Speaker 1: still getting that show money, maybe even a little less.
Speaker 1: So you're still getting what you normally got, but your
Speaker 1: responsibilities increase. Your money don't increase, but your responsibilities increase.
Speaker 1: And then but at the same time, you look at
Speaker 1: your wife. You love your wife. You want your wife
Speaker 1: to be comfortable. You look at your kids, want your
Speaker 1: kids to be comfortable. God forbid, you've got grandkids because
Speaker 1: they're all bets off. We're gonna do whatever we got
Speaker 1: to do it for them. But right, but you don't
Speaker 1: want them to work. So you take the worry that
Speaker 1: you would normally your wife would have about finance. You
Speaker 1: take that, the worry that your kids would have you
Speaker 1: have grandkids, you take that. You're dealing with all of that,
Speaker 1: and then you go around other dudes. I come around,
Speaker 1: nord Nor how you doing. I'm good? Be what's up
Speaker 1: with you? I'm good? That's a lot. I'm not good stress,
Speaker 1: stress like a mother. Just be honest. It's just funked up,
Speaker 1: just funked up. But I don't be that. I'm not
Speaker 1: going up. I don't want to tell you that because
Speaker 1: from my perspective, I think you're eating right, and I
Speaker 1: don't want it to seem like you're eating and I'm not.
Speaker 1: So you're You said you're good and I'm good, but
Speaker 1: the reality is I'm not good. And if I talk
Speaker 1: to him, regardless of what he's eating, he's not good. Right.
Speaker 1: It's not about the money all the time. You can
Speaker 1: make the money that you need to pay the bills,
Speaker 1: but it doesn't help the stress that you deal with,
Speaker 1: and that pursuit of those bills it doesn't alleviate. You
Speaker 1: can make the bills for July, right, and then you
Speaker 1: go to be everybody's happy, wife's happy, kids happy. Everybody
Speaker 1: goes to sleep at ten o'clock. You up at two
Speaker 1: in the morning. August September. You know what I'm saying. Birthdays, Christmas,
Speaker 1: And that's what's wrong with us. We've put up these
Speaker 1: images of who we are, we want us ups to be,
Speaker 1: and we tell the people that we love that this
Speaker 1: is who we're gonna be, and they can rely on
Speaker 1: that person, and you can always count on that person.
Speaker 1: And this person comes, right, you can count on this person.
Speaker 1: It's five people, two other people come, mother in law,
Speaker 1: father in law, cousin, just in law, ten people, twelve people,
Speaker 1: fifteen people. You can count on this person. And nobody
Speaker 1: understands that I'm not getting no extra shows. I'm getting
Speaker 1: no extra money, but I'm still taking on this ship.
Speaker 1: And you you don't end up telling anybody until Yo,
Speaker 1: I thought I was supposed to get this, it's coming.
Speaker 1: Don't worry about don't worry about that. You know you
Speaker 1: got that. Don't worry about that. I got that. And
Speaker 1: then this comes. Don't worry about that. I got that.
Speaker 1: I got that and you and then I talked about
Speaker 1: them on New music in this in this world, and
Speaker 1: it's very easy to say in the entertainment industry, but
Speaker 1: this is a real world. We all end up at
Speaker 1: some point Robert Peter to paper and the only time
Speaker 1: it becomes a problem is what Peter gets mad. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying now here, Pop, Now, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: keep it. I'm gonna keep it. One hunted and hip hop.
Speaker 1: You can find a Peter with a bunch of money.
Speaker 1: They just want to be alone for the rock, right,
Speaker 1: So just keep it real. And Peter's got X amount
Speaker 1: of money. So it's like you, if Peter funk with me,
Speaker 1: were gonna get from February to November, we're good money.
Speaker 1: We could Peter funk with us and then Peter SHEI
Speaker 1: get bad, Oh should get bad the same m and
Speaker 1: your family don't know that Peter is a part of it.
Speaker 1: It's crazy and you gotta trying to figure out how
Speaker 1: to make all this ship makes sense. This is not
Speaker 1: my issue, and any rapper that's watching this at least
Speaker 1: me to the fun. Peter and Paul real talk. My bottom,
Speaker 1: My class is empty. It's not about looking. This is
Speaker 1: about real life. We gotta stop going to Peter to
Speaker 1: pay Paul. The record industry is built around you because
Speaker 1: they're Peter. That's who. That's who. Peter is, the record
Speaker 1: is that's the industry. That's the advance. Peter is the advance.
Speaker 1: Paul's the family. So you gotta go and get another
Speaker 1: advance into another album. I eat rob Peter to pay Paul.
Speaker 1: But the reality is Peter is mad because you're not
Speaker 1: robbing Peter. Peter is just front you. That's where she
Speaker 1: gets bad. And then families fall apart because they thought
Speaker 1: you were Peter. You just being real, and that's where
Speaker 1: families fall apart. Keep going. And if you I used
Speaker 1: to say if your luck, I almost said it your luck,
Speaker 1: if you're blessed, you realize that God is Peter, and
Speaker 1: you've been leaning on him too long, for too long,
Speaker 1: and Paul is man, and you've been robbing God, taking
Speaker 1: every all the blessings and opportunities from God to make
Speaker 1: man happy. And then God gets mad at you because
Speaker 1: you've never given him anything because you know what the
Speaker 1: reality is. You don't get mad at Paul. You get
Speaker 1: mad at Peter because the reality is Peter's and beholding
Speaker 1: you down. Paul is You've been front from Paul is
Speaker 1: the fan base, Paul is social media, that's who Paul is.
Speaker 1: And he's shouting too, and Paul don't care. Paul yo
Speaker 1: the illusion I heard and this is literally from four
Speaker 1: weeks ago with the Bible studdy, and it was like
Speaker 1: most of us are going broke to prove to people
Speaker 1: we don't even like that we got money. That's not
Speaker 1: even my word word to John Gray, that's not even
Speaker 1: my word. And I didn't even really and I'm not
Speaker 1: living like that now, right, But I'm like, yo, I
Speaker 1: did that at some point. So when you realize this ship,
Speaker 1: are you gonna keep lying to yourself on lying to
Speaker 1: the people because that's how we keep the shows up.
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm gonna with that right now. That's how
Speaker 1: we keep the shows up and the money and all
Speaker 1: of that is because people want to lie about where
Speaker 1: they are, and we co sign that lot. People want
Speaker 1: to be like, yo, it's all right, We're good, and
Speaker 1: we'd be like, yeah, that's all good. But the sooner
Speaker 1: we admit the truth about where we're at, the sooner
Speaker 1: they can. Because I went to hip hop watching Chuck
Speaker 1: d and X claiming trying to be real about where
Speaker 1: I was as a black man, and they weren't getting
Speaker 1: paid for it like I get paid for it. And
Speaker 1: it's very easy for these the industry. I'm sorry, Rock,
Speaker 1: this doesn't go against what you guys are trying to promote,
Speaker 1: but it's very easy to go against that too. Maintain
Speaker 1: a lifestyle that you pray for, right because when you
Speaker 1: think about your family and your children, you don't think
Speaker 1: about God. I'm just being real when we think about
Speaker 1: what you didn't have. We had God when were coming up,
Speaker 1: but we didn't have money, we didn't have opportunity, we
Speaker 1: didn't have privilege. So when we that's what we wanted
Speaker 1: for our kids. And then when you get old, at
Speaker 1: the point where I got grandkids, and I can look
Speaker 1: at my kids, it's growing people and that's what they
Speaker 1: I can see that that's what they wanted and needed.
Speaker 1: Was everything that made us who we were, but we
Speaker 1: didn't make them what they were. Based on that, we
Speaker 1: thought about everything we didn't get or like I didn't
Speaker 1: get a tar reason coll Echo's, so when Xboxing and Playtation,
Speaker 1: I wanted to give them that. I was like to
Speaker 1: babysit and do other ship for Jordan's. So I wanted
Speaker 1: my kids to have Jordan's. But I was also raised
Speaker 1: to appreciate and respect and acknowledge God, and I didn't
Speaker 1: do that every moment. I'm not saying I didn't acknowledge
Speaker 1: God in my life, but there was some ship that
Speaker 1: I didn't do when I should have done. And you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's again, Rob, I don't know
Speaker 1: if this is against but but just to say, you
Speaker 1: know I saw God in you. You saw God and me,
Speaker 1: we didn't know it was God right and we're there
Speaker 1: now and taking God out of everything. I didn't know
Speaker 1: who I was when I started it. I had more
Speaker 1: faith in who you guys were, looking at Copon Noriega,
Speaker 1: looking at my deep, looking at E. P. M D.
Speaker 1: Wanted to be emulative of that, and then realizing that
Speaker 1: I was already that when I met him, like this,
Speaker 1: nigg is me. I don't need to do like this.
Speaker 1: Nig is me. Killed that I was in Atlanta, people
Speaker 1: k killed that ed. You know, I gotta drink more
Speaker 1: and yo, God bless. I don't know what makes the
Speaker 1: room to make the podcast, but I know it made
Speaker 1: the room. But I can't think usually enough but the drop.
