I swear I 31 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: just lied, like in different interviews that people just started Yeah, 32 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: like really, I think. I think the way it really 33 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: happened was I used to call myself big boy, okay, 34 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: and then that was when I was mad young, right, 35 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: So as soon as the outcast popped off, I went crazy. 36 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: I was like, I can't call myself that. The next 37 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: obvious name to me was Belly. I think that's how 38 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: it came. 39 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, artists trying to come up with some cool backstory. 40 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: You know. 41 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 2: It's encrypted and has this deep meaning on the other side, 42 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 2: like na man out of Belly, and I was like, yeah, 43 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 2: I'm gonna Belly. 44 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 1: But it was before the movie. I say that I 45 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: was Belly before the movie came out. Shout out the hype. 46 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: You know. It's important to to state that though, because 47 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 1: a lot of people ask me if I named myself 48 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: after the movie, and I'm like, no, that was Belly 49 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: before that. 50 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,839 Speaker 2: But that was from a music perspective at that point, 51 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 2: and just a nickname in the neighborhood. 52 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: And and all that, because I was as far back 53 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,959 Speaker 1: as I can remember, I was. I was rapping, not 54 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: for real, but I was rapping in like freestyling and 55 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: all that shit. You know, even when we were mixed 56 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: up in street ship, I was rapping and you know 57 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like we would meet up people and 58 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: put five ten grand on the line like battle, see 59 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: what you know what I mean? So I will pull 60 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: up bundles of cash and shit be like, yeah, battle them, 61 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: Let's see what you can do. Like it was that 62 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: type of thing for me ever since I was twelve 63 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: or thirteen years old, you know what I mean. So 64 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 1: it's always been in there, you know. I never had 65 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: I never had to be like, oh, Belly's my stage 66 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: name or that's my street name. It was always mixed. 67 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: It was just the same thing, you know. Yeah, when 68 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: did that start to forming? It? 69 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: Making actual records outside of just battling, especially because you 70 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 2: have two different sides of your pen as far as 71 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 2: how you approach music, you're drastically different. 72 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, because you can write beautiful R and B records 73 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 3: and then you can write some super hard lyricol rap 74 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. It's like, is there a 75 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 3: certain thing you go through from a creative standpoint where 76 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: it's like you gotta be in a certain mindset to 77 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 3: write R and B versus writing rap boys. 78 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: It's just like you can turn it off and on 79 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: whenever you want to be honest with you, Like, first 80 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: of all, we were talking about this earlier. It's like 81 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: the multi faceted human, right, It's like, yeah, there were 82 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: certain things I had to do. I know how to 83 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: talk about those things because I had to do them, 84 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: so I experienced it. I know about certain details that 85 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: unless you were in that situation you wouldn't. So you 86 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: could talk vaguely about the situation. But then when someone 87 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: starts describing details and you're like, oh shit, you know 88 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: what I mean? But not to say that with the 89 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: R and B shit, you didn't have to live that neither. 90 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: Blady could be like Yo, my whole life man, you 91 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: know nah, bro, Like all of us had moments where 92 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: you had to tell someone yo, I love you. Thank you. 93 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: You helped me down. So what so for me, I 94 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: turned that into a song because that's my easiest way 95 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: to express myself, you know what I mean, even with 96 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: this type of shit. It's like if there wasn't a 97 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: level of comfort we in my house and we all 98 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: like me expressing myself openly in these environments, it's not 99 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: it's not easy for me. That's something I had to 100 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: really overcome her. So music was always my expressive form. 101 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: So whether I was talking about love, heartbreak, the streets, 102 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: drug shit, I've seen it. I've seen all that shit, 103 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: you know. I've had homies disappear, and it made me 104 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: write songs that were sad, that made me like almost 105 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 1: want to honor them, honor their memories, and I would 106 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: write songs. So every scenario in my life always gave 107 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: me an out what's it called outlet, right, But doesn't 108 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: mean every every expression that I wrote or everything that 109 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: I wrote had to go through me as the vessel, 110 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: you know, some ship. It wasn't supposed to be me 111 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: expressing it. So I would write it and it would 112 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: it would be some beautiful but somebody else could probably 113 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 1: carry it way further than I could. So that's that's 114 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: really how you know the writing thing came about. But 115 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: I write about everything, bro, I don't shy away from shit. 116 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 2: As far as the more personal stuff, though obviously have 117 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 2: kept that more in the wraps. 118 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: I feel like. 119 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 2: Talking more on the depression depression side of things and 120 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 2: then kind of disappearing in the way you have as 121 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 2: a rap artist and as a writer has been super 122 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 2: interesting to me because I feel like, and in no way 123 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 2: do I want to say that mental health has become 124 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 2: like the new trendy thing to talk about, because I 125 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 2: think that is great. 126 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: I think it should be talked about all the time. 127 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 2: Absolutely, But back when you were just saying of with 128 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 2: the street stuff you can identify with certain people like oh, 129 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 2: I know when you're really going through something and when 130 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 2: you didn't. I feel like a lot of the mental 131 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: health stuff has kind of become put on front street 132 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 2: as a look at me type of way. In so 133 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 2: many cases you have talked about depression and disappeared the 134 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 2: fuck away from everything, like I don't even want. 135 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: To talk about this type of shit? Yeah? 136 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 2: Was that on purpose? Where you didn't even want to 137 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 2: be seen or interview or talk to or become kind 138 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 2: of this public figure because I mean, of course you 139 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 2: rubbed shoulders with pretty HIA artists that you could be 140 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: looked at and photos with, or events where they be 141 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 2: on tour with. Was this disappearing act intentional for a 142 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 2: marketing thing or more of a you know, this is 143 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 2: really I want you to leave me the fuck alone. 144 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: Well, I wish I could tell you it was on 145 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: some calculated marketing shit. I really, I really do you 146 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: know what I mean? But it was just it was 147 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: a combination of ship that happened to me at that time, 148 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: you know, getting jumped at that festival, things that just 149 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: happened like around that time, just a lot of personals. 150 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: What happened with that? What was that about? I never 151 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: even got the like, you know, God bless, I'm gonna 152 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: be I'm gonna be back at Coachella next year. We ever, 153 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: we hashed out, we hashed out our differences and everything. 154 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: I don't want to get into the past, you know 155 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But in general, like just after, it 156 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: was a lot of incidents like that. That one just 157 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: happened to being in the public eye, gotcha. But there 158 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,559 Speaker 1: was a lot of incidents to happen around that time 159 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: that felt this is impactful to me as that, and 160 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: I just like, you know, I felt like there was 161 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: a pattern going on. I was like, why is this? 162 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: Why is this negative shiit keep creeping into my life. 163 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: I was like, I gotta I gotta check check something. Yeah, 164 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: some some something about my frequency is wrong, right. And 165 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: I always tell people like, yeah, I believe in like 166 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: being able to manifest and put a signal out there 167 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: and receive something bad. Believe in that. But if if 168 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 1: you're if your satellite, if your antenna is broken, right, 169 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: you ain't sending ship out. You're not receiving nothing, right. 170 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: And that's that's the phase that I felt like I 171 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,719 Speaker 1: was in. It's like, yeah, I gotta go sit down 172 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: and fix myself because a lot of crazy negative ship. 173 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: It's either a lot of negative ship's happening to me 174 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 1: or that's all I could focus on, which either way 175 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: is this is a bad thing, you know. So I 176 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: went sat my ass down and focused and honestly like 177 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: just again to say, like I wish it was a 178 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: marketing thing. I really do, because that ship put me 179 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: in debt. I didn't work for three years, right, so 180 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: you know, God bless I had family and guys that 181 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: respect me in certain ways that I was still getting 182 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: work and and behind the scenes situations, right, but uh, 183 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: for for for as much for the income I was doing, 184 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, before like that should just 185 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: I just said I'm done and I had to just 186 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: live off what I had for you know, for three 187 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: almost four years or whatever that I was really just 188 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: turning down mass shit not you know, I just I 189 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: just didn't want to be out there. And I think 190 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 1: like there was like an ideology that changed inside of 191 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: me where I was like positive my whole life about 192 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: certain shit, being like yo, you know you do good, 193 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: you get good and this that, and then all this 194 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: wax shit happened and I'm like, well, wait, what if 195 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: I did all this good? Why is this happening? And 196 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: I had to really sit down until I figured that out, 197 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: and I knew my answer. I couldn't come back to 198 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: this shit. Bro. I lost mad weight, I remember that, right. 199 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 1: I was like my I champion that journey. I gained 200 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: all of it back, right, So I was like back 201 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: up to even more like three hundred and fifteen three 202 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: twenty pounds. I was just out the public eye completely, 203 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: you know, physically, I wasn't there. Mentally, I wasn't there anything, 204 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: you know, and spiritually especially I wasn't there. I just literally, man, 205 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,839 Speaker 1: I just sat down and just got myself back because 206 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: it was times that I didn't know I was going 207 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 1: to make music again. I really didn't. I was just 208 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: I was like fuck it, you know, like maybe maybe 209 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 1: this is the end of the road. Is here, Like 210 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: it's cool. I got to find a way to live 211 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: with that, you know, And God bless me, everything just 212 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: came back around. As soon as I was just on 213 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: some let it go shit, everything came back around. Yeah. 214 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 2: I mean we're usually the last to know about ourselves 215 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: when it comes that type of stuff. What were some 216 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 2: of the things you realized about yourself? Did you think 217 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 2: maybe you were thinking positive things that weren't necessarily positive, 218 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 2: they were more perceived positive or a fake positivity to 219 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 2: some degree. Yeah, because that because that deems I love 220 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 2: that you said that deems a lot of negativity. I've 221 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 2: been through that where like, oh, I think I'm living 222 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 2: right and it's like, oh wait, let me take a 223 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 2: step back. I'm living what I think is correct and 224 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 2: it's not the right way exactly. And again, you always 225 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 2: a last to know. 226 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: An experience to teach you sometimes, right, so like you 227 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: you really have an ideology about some or like an 228 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: idea that something's supposed to go this way, an experience 229 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 1: will show you a few times that, YO, get this 230 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: side of your head. Something difference is going on. And 231 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: I think, I think it's it's math funny to me 232 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: because I looked at all this shit in a in 233 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,839 Speaker 1: a completely different way. Every single time that I went 234 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: through something, I was just like, oh, this is just 235 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: what I do. You know, I'm just a self destructive person. 236 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,559 Speaker 1: I destroyed myself to build myself back atter, you know 237 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: what I mean? Man, God bless I got lifelong friends 238 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: twenty years plus, you know, look out for me and 239 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: you know, make sure. So I was always in that. 240 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: But this time what felt different to me. It was 241 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: like it was like my abilities were gone. You know, 242 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: the things that I considered superpowers to me were gone, right, 243 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And learning about myself and 244 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: that situation was the purest time because I didn't have 245 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: that thing that I could walk into a room and 246 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: be like, who want to write? At sixteen? I didn't 247 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: have that all right, right, I had to me nothing, 248 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: That's all I had so it's like, what do I 249 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: build from here? How do I make this without that something? 250 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: And that's that's what I built from bro. I really 251 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 1: had to build up from the from like that, kill 252 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: the ego shit, kill that like rapper that you've been 253 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: since you were twelve, right, fuck all that shit, and 254 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: now let's let's get to belly the human right. And 255 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: then once I came down, I was like, yo, yeah, 256 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: that that fake positive ship you're talking about. I know 257 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: exactly what it is. You know what it is. It's 258 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: when people think that fierceness isn't necessary, right, It's like no, 259 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: I had to learn, you know, being positive doesn't mean 260 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 1: you can't turn the fuck up and be angry and 261 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: aggressive sometimes no, as long as the intent is positive, right, 262 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: what you're if you're breaking, if you're breaking through a 263 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: wall to save some people, you're doing something positive, but 264 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: you're still aggressive, only fierce energy.

It comes down to government policy, 677 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: Kirker politicians, corrupt governments and right wing administrations right to me, 678 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 1: So somebody else can have a different opinion to me. 679 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:57,719 Speaker 1: That's where it comes from, right you You you change that, 680 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: you change the regime, then you have a chain to 681 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: change everything else. As long as you have these type 682 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: of tyrants, you know, in power, you're going to continue 683 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: to see the same thing you're seeing. If we want 684 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: real change, we got to commit to real change, and 685 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: those type of guys need to be out of office, 686 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,239 Speaker 1: and we need to really work towards the future that 687 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: we can integrate and be happy all of us in 688 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: one place, you know what I mean. But in the 689 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: way it is and the policies and the way they're run, 690 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 1: I don't think that's the case. I don't think that 691 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: there's a equal rights or even human rights a lot 692 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 1: of times for Palestinians. That's what it comes down to me. 693 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: So I don't want to get into the politics of it. 694 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: I'm not a politician, but I'm gonna just say, man, 695 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: it always comes down to the politicians makes some crazy 696 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: decisions and that people suffer, you know exactly.
