Speaker 1: is real, authentic l A Cat you know right right, Well,

22
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: he had to have somebody to lashan with that. You know,

23
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: I looked, I looked at a lot of it, like

24
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: the Franklin cat. You know, I'm I'm depicting in everybody.

25
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 1: I'm looking at everybody how they're getting down? Um, the

26
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: uncle is a cold one. But Franklin looking at looking

27
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: at it from from everod so one. He didn't know

28
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: what he wanted to do. He didn't know if this

29
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: lifestyle was good for him. After they took old Boy

30
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:46,000

Speaker 1: Boy to bag money and and told him he done y'all.

33
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,279
Speaker 1: So at the beginning of it, that wasn't for him.

34
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like I was telling your

35
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: early is a different I always say gangster by nature,

36
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: not by choice. You know, some cats out here live

37
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: that life, but you know they wasn't born and raised

38
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: into it, you know what I'm saying. So you know

39
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: something has choose to live that life. Oh, this is

40
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: what I want to do. Because they see the next

41
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 1: cat how he getting down? No, the real cats is

42
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: like this's by nature and he didn't grow into it

43
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: like that. He just man that. But he became a beast.

44
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: Now let me ask you this, bro. You know you

45
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: saw him go from that propression of being a dude

46
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 1: that didn't want no smoke with nobody Harley to be

47
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: in a stone cold killer, no hesitation. How often does

48
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 1: that happen in the streets for real? Uh? Man? That's

49
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 1: pretty much every day nor somebody get turned out. Some

50
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: cats become that way because they tired of getting picked on.

51
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,679
Speaker 1: Some cats become that way because the way they was

52
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: brought up. You know, the father, they their father picked

53
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: some of these cats just like that, just period is

54
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: in them. But every day, man, every day, you you're

55
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: going ahead to pick and choose what you're gonna do.

56
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: Some cats don't pick up the gun. They go the

57
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 1: other way, or they moved by the state or something.

58
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: But every day somebody get turned out to their life

59
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 1: every day. Now, during that era, like during that era

60
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 1: back then, what was the worst city? Because I know

61
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 1: that in l A was comping the most turned up

62
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: city kind of back back during that time period. Well,

63
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: when I was growing up, I wouldn't I never paid

64
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: attention to if l A was the worst is I

65
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: know Watt's always been somewhere. You know, the afterwards they

66
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: get a regular couldn't go to watch period. You know

67
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It was no way through there. Um,

68
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 1: Compton was rough, you know, going up over there and

69
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 1: since said, you know, people getting killed, But I always

70
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: focused on Compton. How you know the level we was

71
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: only competent, not a and none of that, but as

72
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: biggest encompass. So you know it was off the hood. Yeah,

73
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: I can imagine because I didn't get it. I didn't

74
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 1: take down all here into so I was kind of

75
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: coming in almost at the til the end of everything. Right.

76
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: Eighty eight is when I got out of prison, So

77
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: it was still gun hole in eight. It was still

78
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: cracking in eight. So you know it was definitely cracking.

79
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,799
Speaker 1: But I'm thinking, I'm thinking from what I hear from people,

80
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: they say eighty six and eighties five was really really cracking. Yeah,

81
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: it was rough, No eighty three eight a eighty three.

82
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: You had to be who you was, It had to

83
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: be in you to be a part of it. If

84
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: it wouldn't, then you you was getting your ass toe

85
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 1: up and rip the part, you know, if you wouldn't,

86
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: if if you couldn't make it, then you wouldn't gonna

87
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: make it at all. A lot niggas got pumped, and

88
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: a lot of niggas wouldn't come outside, and they a

89
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,359
Speaker 1: lot of niggas wouldn't come outside and eighty three, you

90
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So that's when motherfucker started getting shot.

91
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: So when the pistol play came, a lot of them

92
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: didn't want to A lot of them couldn't do it.

318
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 1: I think Jerome wi want up At to kill Louis

319
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: because I don't think he could go against his family

320
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:37,159
Speaker 1: for her. No, he's gonna kill He's gonna kill his

321
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: nephew for her. He loved her to death. But because

322
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 1: he's gonna shoot her, and he loved her so motherfucking much.

323
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: He you could read it through the strip to keep

00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 1: telling her he loved her. I got you back, but

327
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 1: when she shot up the one that just got out

00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: of jail. I ain't good with the names on the montain.

00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 1: This in the hospital, now? Yeah? When when? When when

330
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 1: Frederick went in there and told him more, it was

331
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: as you've seen his facial expression right, and you see

332
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 1: his hot blood pressure going up and all that he

333
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 1: was so he coming at her and uncles in the

Speaker 1: ain't he ain't gonna get in the middle of it,

336
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 1: because you know, it was sucked up. And then she

337
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: denied him. When she denied him, and he pulled that

338
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 1: pistol out, and then that police cat E Scott came

339
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: behind him. That's the only thing saved her life. He

340
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 1: was gonna kill her right then. Yeah, do you like

341
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,639
Speaker 1: what do you think about that? Do you think he

380
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 1: the only thing I'm I'm tripping off up because the

381
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 1: white boy that stepped out on the dope, he killed

382
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:04,960

383
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,919
Speaker 1: bringing he so they had to kill him, understand, but

384
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: just because of motherfucker start smoking and ship though me,

385
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a problem. Yeah, I thought that was

386
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 1: kind of rash, now you know. Um see, I don't

387
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 1: want to tell you too much because I know you

388
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 1: ain't seen the whole thing yet and I don't want

389
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 1: to mess it up for you. But Franklin put a

390
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 1: lot of stuff in motion when he killed that dude.

391
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,679
Speaker 1: I think they're scared some other people. It's scared a

392
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 1: lot of people because even his uncle Jabron was like,

393
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 1: you killed him. That's when he realized that he vicious.

394
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 1: Now that dude is vicious. Look at the beginning he

395
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 1: walked away and told, oh boy, I'm done at the game.

396
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: That that bands after they sold the Caillac and that

397
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: like he threw them the bag. He told him he

398
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: done because he was about to bring can Motion some

399
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 1: more birds. He's like, no, I'm good right then and

400
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: there he realized this ship ain't from me. And I

401
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: want to see how he comes back in and and safe.

402
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: Fucking now the killing motherfucker's yeah, and he went over there.

403
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 1: You know what I thought was crazy, how he went

404
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 1: to robbed his auntie's uncle spots. He robbed these spots.

405
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 1: He cleaned him out. How much money you think he

406
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,160
Speaker 1: got off with? I don't know. He didn't. They never

407
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 1: said he got off with a lot of money. But

408
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 1: he only did that because everything that he worked for

409
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: is about to be gone. So I'm desperate now about

410
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 1: fucking So when he killed them two mother fuckers and

411
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: winning there and took all that money and ship, it

412
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 1: was only right. It was only right. I gotta get it.

413
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,440
Speaker 1: I can't lose everything I had. She went behind his

414
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,119
Speaker 1: back and went to the plug. So I thought that

415
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: was fouled out. His uncle shouldn't roll with that, told him,

416
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 1: you suck that up. You were not do When did

417
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: he find out she did that after the fact, after

418
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: they got married. Okay, so it ain't gotten it's too late.

419
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 1: Now he can't do nothing about it. You can't do

420
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: shit about it, but roll with him. Yeah. Now you

421
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: know Rick is saying that Snowfall was supposed to be

422
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 1: about him. Do you think a lot of that is

423
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 1: ricking there? Well? I really can't say because all I

424

Speaker 1: know and my boy my auntie tell me about him.

425
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: So I can't say that that's him, because there's more

426
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 1: than one character in there that's ruthless and fucking with

427
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: those people like that, I can say, yeah, he fun.

489
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: and I heard it from a couple of different people.

490
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: I heard at one time though that the Colombians was

491
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 1: dealing straight with black people out here, but then they

492
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: start kind of using them when they was getting robbed

493
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: and stuff. They started going more to the Amsican people,

494
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 1: living American people, deal with the old American things. All

Speaker 1: they tell you the blacks got messy. The Mexicans are.

497
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 1: They keep their ship secret. They didn't funk with everybody

498
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: and everything, you know what I'm saying. They didn't so

499
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: the Columbias like this, why keep working with them? And

500
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: it's gonna bring bad business to us. So they ran

501
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: from the bullshit and went and with something, something was

502
00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 1: more souber and and and legit. You know what I'm saying.

503
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 1: Niggas was out there doing each other to get that

00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,040

00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: That's crazy, man. You know what My whole thing was

510
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 1: about that stuff, James, You were thinking logic. Some of

511
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 1: them cats were stacking the million dollars a month for

512
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: a million dollars a week. Yeah, you would think after

513
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 1: motherfucker maybe hit tim million, they'd be like, you know what,

514
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna tip out of here. I'm just gonna

515
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: raise up and go bounce. That ain't the mentality of

516
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: a black man. Most motherfuckers did that if he if

517
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: he got ten million, he went and got some businesses

518
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 1: like the older cats did back in the days. That's

519
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 1: when it was good for him. They did do something

520
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: with their money. The generation after that they made money

521
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 1: in ball low Rider's jury and ship like that. You know,

522
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: they had to be seen when it first started. The

523
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: ones that made money, they did good by their money.

524
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: But everybody else that that wanted to shine and wanted

525
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 1: everybody to see that they had money. Them the nuggleheads,

526
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,040
Speaker 1: they got in trouble, They got caught up, they got robbed,

527
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 1: they got killed for the ship, you feel me, because

528
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: the next nigger was starting and hungry and he had

529
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: to get the motherfucking big shark. Now, how many how

530
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 1: many legit businesses you thinking of hood right now that

531
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: came from that whole dope era. Oh man, I can't

532
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: even count. I can't even count. Uh some businesses that's

533
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: out there. And you don't even know. The brothers got

534
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 1: the honies, gout or whatever. Everything. Niggas don't want you

535
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: to know and didn't want you to know they business

536
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 1: because back then niggas was getting flipped over for you know,

537
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 1: once they found out who you was. Mm hmm, they

00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: So a lot of ship that them cats was doing,

540
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: which was good is keeping the hood out of their

541
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: ship keeping When when the motherfucker came to kicking in

542

Speaker 1: the hood, he came and kicked it in the hood

543
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 1: and bounced, I ain't gotta go around the corner and

544
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 1: go to sleep. They left the motherfucker's in the hood.

545
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 1: In the hood. Niggas wasn't taking niggas to their house.

546
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 1: The ones that did what happened. Motherfucker's somebody close to

Speaker 1: A lot of cats wouldn't cut for that ship. Because

610
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 1: every hundred dollars you make, you're going to buy weed

611
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 1: and drink. You ain't really making money. Niggas wasn't taking

612
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 1: money and saving it and putting it away thinking I'm

613
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,040

00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,360
Speaker 1: the block jib two four in the morning trying to

615
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:08,439
Speaker 1: get some money. When that real nigger was leaving it

616
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: as soon as it got dark eight nine o'clock. They

617
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:14,400
Speaker 1: got made mine. I'm gone. That's the ones that wouldn't

618
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:18,280
Speaker 1: greeting and they made their money and we're just gone

619
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: now now. When you was out there, James, when you

620
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 1: was out there, what's the most money you made in

621
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:29,319
Speaker 1: the day out and it's on the corner, maybe four

622
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 1: hundred five dollars. Then was about that, you know, I

623
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 1: had maybe like I had a couple of times man

624
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:40,439

00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: hundred dollars, you know, a thousand dollars or whatever like that.

626
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: But then it was like really rare because it got

627
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,399
Speaker 1: to the point that where were so many niggas out there.

628
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 1: I'm talking about cats just in the same crew. You're

00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: the hood. No, we was on some different ship. That's

638
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,799
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You got a different types of niggas

639
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: in the hood that's sold dope. You got niggas in

640
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,919

00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 1: grew up in this motherfucker. You got a right to sale.

645
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 1: And they did it all day. But the ones that

646
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 1: was out there gang banging, you know, it was like

647
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: you had two jobs. I'm a gang member and down them.

648
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,839
Speaker 1: You know, I'm a part time half ass selling rocks

00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:02,439
Speaker 1: fresh converts, fresh ass khakis in the fresh white tea.

651
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: Yeah for real. And you know the thing, hell, anybody

00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:08,920
Speaker 1: doing that ship in two thousand between two man, I

653
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 1: feel bad for him. Ain't no money out there, no

654
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 1: more like that. That's gone, that's done. No, But it's

655
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:20,720
Speaker 1: enough for a cadinet hood to do what I just said,

656
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 1: to get the fresh niggers to to bibe. You know,

657
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:27,400

658
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 1: out there, you know what I'm saying. And then we

659
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: were so stupid all that ship that that that we had.

660
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: Now none of us had a lawyer. Niggas didn't put

661
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 1: money away for that. Niggas didn't put away bail money. No,

662
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 1: you feel me. It was just it was just we

663
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: didn't know, we didn't. I don't think nobody knew, James.

664
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: I don't think nobody was thinking that far beaut Like.

665
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 1: I thought about it the other day and I really

666
00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 1: just thought, I said, Man, ain't God that God had

667
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:05,239
Speaker 1: mercy on on us? Man, because you know you do ship.

668
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 1: I think about it, me being a cat to come

669
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 1: out here from Ohio playing football and I'm out in

670
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: the corner. I could have went to jail and been

671
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 1: going for thirty years though, but you'd want you to

672
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:18,919
Speaker 1: system just say five years that it turned your whole

673
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 1: life around, that that that a rearrangage that has set

674
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:25,279
Speaker 1: you on a different course. Now you go do five

675
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:28,760
Speaker 1: years and the state pen attention. You're a big dude,

676
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,840
Speaker 1: so a lot of motherfucker's probably when the fun with you.

677
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:36,840
Speaker 1: But you'd have had some issues and because you ain't

678
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 1: from no click or you might have to click up

679
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 1: with Long Beach, and I think that would have been

680
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: the best thing for you because of the Long Beach catch,

681
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 1: you know, like bombing them. All you gotta do is

682
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 1: mentioned bomby niggas. No who Bomby is. Yeah, you know

683
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: it's crazy. I'm gonna tell you this answer. God true.

684
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 1: I was two weeks from going and probably going to

685
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 1: prison with that nigga if I wouldn't have kept having

686
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 1: new thoughts in my head to get But I told you,

687
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,840
Speaker 1: I walked away and left the whole song from the

688
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: side of the building. I walked away dog because my

689
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 1: mama knew. I think she knew. And I just kept

690
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: having these thoughts man, I needed, you know, I kept

691
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,760
Speaker 1: getting the warnings and not following the police came around

692
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,359
Speaker 1: that dog, I walked home and never looked back. Dog

693
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: and find people to jail. Two weeks later, he caught

694
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 1: his first KIS And I know for sure I would

695
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: have been with him was I was running with him

696
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,320
Speaker 1: thickt thieves back then. That's that's my dog. You know

697
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: what I mean. That would have changed your whole life.

698
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:40,319
Speaker 1: So just think how many cats lives changed by going

699
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 1: to prison just because they was trying to make some money,

700
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:45,799
Speaker 1: just because they was trying to you know, I had

701
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: a kid and wanted to get on that block to

702
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: make sure that baby was good. You know what I'm saying,

703
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:55,200
Speaker 1: or something is just doing it for for self preservation.

704
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,239
Speaker 1: I need this money. I needed to I need a car,

705
00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 1: I need wood wool. The price that a motherfucker paid,

706
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 1: it's it's crazy, it's crazy. It definitely ain't worth it.

707
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: And you know what's what's funny though, Dog fine Be

708
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 1: always was a good cat, always was a cool dude.

709
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 1: And that was the way of looking out for me

710
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 1: kind of you know what I mean, That was kind

711
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:21,719
Speaker 1: of his way of looking out for me. Man. But

712
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 1: I just tell you, man, we really gotta start man

713
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 1: developing other options to people. Man, we really gotta start

714
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: looking at other options and not just look at because

715
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: our whole thing is black folks. Dogs, is you ain't

716
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 1: playing football, you're playing basketball. If you ain't playing basketball,

717
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,319
Speaker 1: you're wrapping. If you ain't doing none of those, you're

718
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,000
Speaker 1: trying to sell dope. You know what I'm saying. We

719
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 1: gotta start thinking the different stuff to do. Dogs. Plenty

720
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 1: of ways I get to have a good life for yourself. Well,

721
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 1: it's a lot that do. But the ain't nobody being

722
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 1: taught that that you've got other options. These cats out

723
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 1: here and ain't learning that. And before you can get

724
00:41:56,480 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 1: a hold on them, they're already doing blow, they already

725
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: drinking all day, they're already getting high, they already setting

726
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:07,919
Speaker 1: their ways. Let's say that's seventeen sixteen, seventeen years old,

727
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 1: sixteen years old. They tattered all the way up from

728
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 1: their neck down to their belly. So it's gonna be

729
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 1: hard to to to get at a cat that looking

730
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,439
Speaker 1: at the older dude like thinking you didn't had your time.

731
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 1: It's my turn, for real. It's gonna be hard. But

732
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:31,480
Speaker 1: like I said, everybody go through something and they're like,

733
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:37,759
Speaker 1: that's gonna make them say, fuck this ship, fuck this ship.

734
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: Because happy these cats ain't lived like that yet. Happy

735
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 1: these cats ain't been stabbed and and tied up and

736
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: cut shot. Happy these niggers they went through this ship.

737
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,840
Speaker 1: So you know what to And I look at Cleveland,

738
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,799
Speaker 1: like in California, when I came up in Cleveland and

739
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,240
Speaker 1: the crack are started up there, it was a little differently.

740
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 1: L A is crime, you don't get wrong, but Cleveland

741
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 1: is like really grim, and you got brawls to carry

742
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,840
Speaker 1: to raise, the blades in their mouth you got, and

743
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 1: the thing you know, you and Cleveland, you was more

744
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,600
Speaker 1: than likely to get stabbed up somewhere then get shot.

745
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:17,160
Speaker 1: See for number one, we can't separate the states because

746
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 1: black man niggas is niggas period. Yeah, that's what I'm

747
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 1: trying to That's why I'm trying to tell you. It's like,

748
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,280
Speaker 1: you know, me thinking about the east side of Cleveland,

749
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 1: it wasn't really no different than being on the east

750
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 1: side alone, because it was like the same stuff kind

751
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: of just a different play. The only thing, you know, James,

752
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,600
Speaker 1: the only thing you could do is substract the crips

753
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,080
Speaker 1: and the bloods. But you've got some other cats up

754
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 1: there to kind of replace the crypts and the blood

755
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 1: So it's all the same stuff when we do ship,

756
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:46,719
Speaker 1: let's look at it like this. Let's just push it

757
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 1: in order how shit's supposed to be, and and let's

758
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 1: go by Let's say the ranks of different motherfucker different individuals.

759
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,919
Speaker 1: Everybody ain't the same cat. Everybody ain't the motherfucking killing.

773
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:55,879
