The young and the young and from Georgia and uh
in the Minnesota Edward Edwards, Yeah, you know my squad.
You know, I love is I think watching Brian now,
to watch Brin play now And this was I was
talking about regular season when he was playing it felt
it felt eccentric to what it felt like I felt like,

(04:12):
you know, not not on the last dances to what
you already Okay, you noticed the last because it's not right.
So it's almost like when you watch like damn, it's
almost like when you hear them say you ever heard
somebody say they went through the pilot, Say he went
through the whole Bermuda triangle. He went through and then
he landed up ended up on the other side of

(04:32):
Scott free whenever he went. It's kind of like we
done went through all that. And I were just Scott
watching Brian just ad and that just is amazing to me.
So to watch him play and also to watch you know,
the sniper, I don't like. I ain't like to see
him fall off, Like I didn't like to see the
end of the how they how they fell off from

(04:53):

Shout out CEP, shout out CP. Man.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
Bro, But sin, since we already are, what's your take
on Josh situation?

Speaker 2 (05:19):
Man?

Speaker 3 (05:21):
Man, You know, I had a conversation with my homies
today because I was looking at I was noticing that
I had a few different generations. When I was talking
speaking to him as my artist was in there, and
my artist was in there, and gutter was in there.
So I mean, what I mean by that is gutter
from my generation and my artist. I'm sorry, my artist
is younger. So I was just asking him. I was like,

(05:41):
what's the necessity of what you know?

Speaker 1 (05:44):
What is?

Speaker 3 (05:44):
Then I was like, what's the necessity part of doing
you know, doing that? What's that what you know posting
yourself saying this is what I look at him doing.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
I was like, what I mean by that is.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
Because I'm trying to figure I'm trying to, you know,
do the cliche put myself in his shoes, understand it?
And I was like, so, I was like, so the
best I can do without them answering before they answered
that question.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
I told them where I was at with it. I say,
so the best the best time.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
I was like, so, the best I could do is
remember when I was younger and my home's squad, all
my niggas around me, when and we were at the
age where they don't have money. I'm the one with
the money, you know what I mean? And then I
don't even know how much money I will end up with.
But I'm a mom with some money in my pocket.

(06:30):
I know I got a bright future. My homies I ain't.
They ain't no payroll, They ain't my homies.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
They live good.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
When they with me, when I go to when I
gotta go by stunning them and go to work and
all that, they gotta go back to being who they
gotta be, you know.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
What I mean.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
So what I'm saying saying that to say them the streets,
and I was aware of that. So I was I say,
so if I was going through something at that point
in time, something public like with Slam going through, I said,
I could imagine the rebel the rebellious attitude I would

(07:04):
have if my home is just egging attitude on right,
you know what I mean? I like to and Alside
was like, what they also need to understand. What we
also need to understand is we don't want talking about
this like that. It's not not I don't know this
for a fact, but just in a lot of situations
like this, when we all talking about it, the actual
person and the people were talking about they actually they

(07:27):
purposely stay away from this. They stay away from all
this we're saying. They stay away from hearing this. And they
got people that are protecting them from that's gonna hear
it for them.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
They're gonna protect them from hearing it.

Speaker 3 (07:39):
So what I mean by that is, if I had
something going on in the public that you know is
negative about me my home, We're gonna they purposely making
sure we still man, we don't even want them to
hear it. So it's hard for the message to get through, right,
you know what I mean. It's hard for the message
all these you know, you got people looking dead and
the cameras on TV like then I'm talking to you job.
You know what I mean, It's hard for the message

(08:00):
to get through, man, when you because I'm the bread winner,
I wish your nigga would tell me something, you know
what I mean.

Speaker 2 (08:06):
I wish your nigga would tell me. It's almost like.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
I look at it like Zion, how you keep it
begging him to lose weight, getting better shape and this that.
I wish your nigga would tell me something. Right, not
much money I got boy, just like this like this, nigga,
I wish your nigga, nigga, what trade me?

Speaker 2 (08:26):
What? What? And That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
I'm like, so, so I had to ask myself, what's
the necessity of me?

Speaker 2 (08:34):
Because I like, so what that said?

Speaker 3 (08:35):
I was to answer that question if I was asked
at that time, so, what's the necessity to you being
so rebellious right now?

Speaker 2 (08:42):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (08:42):
Was like, my only answer would have been is because
I I don't even hear the truth. I don't want
to hear what y'all think the truth is and the facts.
My truth is my truth, and you know this is
what I come from this, and I come from that
and I got I got my twelve jurors. That's that's okay,
you know what I mean. And so so when I

(09:04):
asked myself, so what's the new sud like, so, what's
the necessity?

Speaker 2 (09:08):
I say, because I could.

Speaker 3 (09:09):
Imagine if I would have did it at that time,
my answer would have been to show y'all don't know
who I'm. Y'all don't know who I got problems with.
Y'all only know this, y'all only know the me that
y'all know. You know what I mean, the puppy, y'all know,
the rapper or whatever, whatever. But should we in these
streets and I need them? Niggas to know every time
I need them necks to know when I ain't on
that quarter, when I ain't on.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
That stage, it's on me.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
And that's why I like, that'll be my answer for
a while. I like that if my mama probably had
to ask me in real life at that time, why
are you doing that?

Speaker 2 (09:39):
And I had to give her a real answer. I
like that.

Speaker 3 (09:42):
I was like, I'm trying to understand, like maybe that
would be my only answer that makes sense to me,
and I would hope she was still damn it, boy,
you tripping.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (09:51):
But I I had to, but they didn't have, you know,
there was like there's like tune, that's the answer for
niggas who are really in the streets, right, you know
what I mean? And I was like, before you say that, like,
don't fall into that trap that these people doing on
TV saying because he ain't no thug, cause he ain't
in the street, he ain't about that he you know gang?

Speaker 2 (10:12):
You do? You don't want that? How y'all know you?

Speaker 3 (10:14):
You don't want y'all know that boy?

Speaker 2 (10:17):
Do y'all know that boy?

Speaker 3 (10:18):
Because I don't I know him from dunking and jumping,
and I only started knowing him and when I started
paying attention to running last year, last year of college.
I come from like a town of three thousand people. Like,
what what y'all y'all what you gave that mean y'all
gave him two entndyd million dollars. I just sat a
town with three thousand people. You expect him to be responsible?

(10:43):
Now we tripping. Then now we tripping, and we expected
him to be That's magic because I could take You know,
I come from a real well raised, beautiful mother nice,
you know what I mean, My mama bus I asked
to make sure everything around me was nice, and I
still was a knucklehead.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
I shot myself, you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (11:01):
So so if you expected and that young man from
a three I could imagine if I came from fucking
what to play with three thousand people and yet and
I became who I am.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
But they had social media when I was twenty three,
I wouldn't have made it.

Speaker 4 (11:15):
Well, I think, yeah, thank god, I think that was
a good question you asked your youngest artist, though, because
we don't know what it's like to grow up with
the with the phone, and that's what you know.

Speaker 3 (11:25):
It's there on this and so what I said, what
I said all that to day, I said, I just said,
they came up with no answer for why he don't
you know what I mean when I told him, let's
just not say he is he's not that because we
don't know that.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
I like, so, so what that says?

Speaker 3 (11:37):
They was like to answer, well, they was like, so
to answer your question, since we don't know that of him,
I'll answer. They were like, we'll answer you of what
we do know. We do know he plays basketball. He
plays real fucking good, you know what I mean. He
was like, what we don't know is if he's that
great of a fucking gangster, you know what I mean,

(11:57):
he's that great of a damn basketball player, the smart one.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
We know that.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
We don't know he's that great up, you know what
I mean, or whatever else you being. You know, I
just like I said, I just finished watching that ship.
We don't know he that great at being terry, but terry,
but we know he got.

Speaker 4 (12:16):
About the court said, I wasn't talking about me.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
I was talking about.

Speaker 5 (12:19):
Pol Why you know, I was taking that technic.

Speaker 3 (12:25):
I was like, boy boy, if I end up with
a wife and she goes boys you're gonna have.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
To deal with that one that was that was a
little week that was wey that that was not the
one that was not not the actions doing.

Speaker 3 (12:37):

Speaker 2 (13:23):
You look at Terry chilling. I'm on, I'm chilling, Terry chilling.
You take your shirt off. We got hun hold uh man.

Speaker 4 (13:32):
You're on record talking about Jay and Missy with some
of your influences, anyone else and other genres that influenced
you on your way up, because I mean it's been
a long way up. Your your longevity is speaks for herself.
But any other influences we might not think would inspire
someone like you.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
I need a baker, I need a bake off top
timeless She inspired me to stop rapping for the times
and make sure my lyrics what timeless?

Speaker 2 (14:01):
You know what?

Speaker 3 (14:01):
I because I would always wonder, like why the hell
I'm niggas? I had to always still to this day,
I have to listen to it before the show. I
still get dumb stupid bitch as butterflies. I gotta let
that shit really hurt. So who would have named it butterflies?
Like you make a nigga hate because if that's how
fucking butterfly, beautiful butterflies feel the way that pain feeld,
I fucking hate butterflies.

Speaker 2 (14:21):
So you know, so you know what that really is? Right?

Speaker 1 (14:24):
What nerves that You're not nerves? You're just anxious about
being great?

Speaker 3 (14:29):
Oh yeah, I know, I know, And I always tell
myself what that said. I tell myself. I told my artists.
I tell him, Uh, you know, comfort is some people
say the first sign. But comfort is a sign of death,
you know what I mean saying? I always like, why
you get so fucking uncomfortable? Like broke getting uncomfortab because relations?

Speaker 2 (14:49):
Uh? Any other artists though you looked up to.

Speaker 4 (14:54):
As far as rappers, any any genre music did inspire
Miss Anita?

Speaker 2 (14:58):
You got.

Speaker 3 (15:01):
I looked up to and it's like you said, it's
some interesting you know as unique people. So it would
be like people like I would listen to a lot
of Lennie Wilkins and Ms Betty Right, and I would
listen to them for it's almost like, uh, you know
how some people some religions.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
Got like thirty guys they pray through.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
I pray for this for when I'm smoking too much,
for listening to your mine, you know what I mean?
So like I listened to Ms Betty and Lenny, they
found in the category of me listening to them knowing
how to make the transition of talking into going back
into your song your song. And because they would have
one song on they only it's like seven minutes, and

(15:37):
it's because they sung it and then they started in
the middle of it, they did a whole story that
you know, you literally not as a word for word,
the story like you and I want to learn that
how you do that?

Speaker 2 (15:48):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (15:48):
Like how do you make that transition? I thought juvenile
did it real well. And I thought he asked, actually
knew how to master making his regular conversation a song,
you know what I mean, Like that's you the Yeah
like that nigga mastered that ship, you know what I mean,
So that other things like that.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
So as far as rappers, it was all Jay.

Speaker 4 (16:09):
You've been making a lot of money for a long time.
What does that do to a young man? I mean,
obviously the world is thrown at you fast, but you've
been making money since she was a young, young teenager.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
How did that kind of shape you?

Speaker 4 (16:20):
And what habits did you have or have to break
as you continue to mature.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
First I would have to I would have to give
all thanks and all that to my mom, watching my
mom before I had a dime, you know, just watching
her and how she got money and what she did
when she got money, how she had to do money
and treat them and just things like watching her that
taught me a whole lot, you know what I mean.
So she kept me reject that made me responsible from
the first day and also being grateful and being thankful

(16:48):
for it. So I meaning you give me. I wasn't
never expected anything. And also you know he can also
attest you. I love I love to fucking wrap, so
you by pay me to do this shit, So you
know what I mean. So when I was so young
and so my first check came, I brought straight to her.
I couldn't even catch with it ain't even enough. It's

(17:09):
not even in my name, and it say it's her name.
So and her I thought she was gonna use it
for bills or whatever. And she get right back and like, now, boy,
keep your money, and she's like, what you want with it?
And so I went and bought a path funder because
new Jeorgy Drive had just came out. I thought them
called the PA. They were still in a bunch of
path funds and I thought that was dope. So someone
got a path funder. And that's the way she was

(17:31):
the moment we got all of the when the big
money came in, I gave it, you know, everyone, straight
to her. She would get it right back, like I
don't need nothing but that right there, just to humble
her humility in that moment, in those moments when you
know you need it, you know what I mean, like
her humility and those moments taught me to be the
same way. So and it's still to this day, I

(17:52):
don't you know what I mean so much so to her,
I have actually never strategically, I've never strategically said up
to make a dollar yet. And that's about him. Never
once said, man, listen, I need to do this for it,
We need to get that. And it's just still to
this day, I still treat it as all of them.

Speaker 2 (18:11):
It's all a blessing. That's why I be coming in too. Uh.

Speaker 4 (18:22):
You spoke recently on mental health health and the struggles
and how it impacted you at a young age. What
would be your message to anyone that is that that
is struggling with mental illness right now and kind of
keeping it bottled up.

Speaker 2 (18:35):
That's the last thing.

Speaker 3 (18:36):
You should just keep it bottled up regardless. And these
days are different. Man, you got so many I say
that to say, you got so many outlets, you know
what I mean? Back then, we couldn't just find an
app or somebody that you know what I mean. We
couldn't do that. We couldn't text, We couldn't you know.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
What I mean. But so it was and we really
couldn't even speak on speak on it. It was just crazy.

Speaker 3 (18:58):
It was like speaking I might set you a situation
that you could speak on now that you wouldn't get
looked crazier. So with that said, if you are going
through any type of mental stress. The last thing to
do is keep it to yourself, you know what I mean.
And that doesn't mean go speak to someone else, because
if that if you can't accomplish that, sometimes you literally

(19:19):
can't do that. But figure out a way to get
it out and make sure it's not negative. Try your hardest,
you know what I mean. Would you figure out a
way to get it out, figure some kind of way,
And that's I resulted to.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
The pending path, you know what I mean. You gotta
figure it out.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
Debut album, The Block Is Hot ninety nine. What was
your mind frame when it was all that was popping off?
We popped up with the first album. It was work
then it was just an animal, Yeah, it was.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
You know when I say it worked to I don't
mean like nine to five work, I mean like school work.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
Yeah, it was you.

Speaker 3 (19:53):
I was still I was in the house, the house
still the youngest of the Cowboys group. It was it
was that we already had to proceed, you know, we
put we put the high boys at them out. Juvie album,
come out, solo album, come out first, Beatchy solo album,
come out in second way in the Turk, y'all gotta
see whatever Buzz's gonna go, We're gonna go with y'alls.
I hit it up there, so you know what I mean,
It was a procedure, like it was just okay, mine

(20:15):
coming out and just I remember, you know, the procedure was,
thank god, the procedure was everybody who album came out,
they went platinum and within the first month and all this,
and so that was a little you know what I mean,
You like, I don't know I'm gonna do all that
with in my turn, and when I came out, thank
God did and so you know.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
I was just happy to keep the procedure going, that's all.

Speaker 4 (20:36):
What kind of stuff do you learn from people like
Juvian and Beg in that process you're seeing greatness of
phrase like us playing with a code at a young age,
like you're seeing greatness in front of you.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
What kind of stuff did you soak up from them?
From Juvie?

Speaker 3 (20:49):
Straight up, Juvet knew how to separate it, how to
separate with it because Juliet he would travel with entourage
like this because ju came from them projects and so
he wanted to help every down body, you know what
I mean. So, but he knew how to with all
that said, you know, he'd still be life for the
part of his with this, but knew how to okay
and cut it and get to work. That's what I

(21:11):
would always learn. I would take from him that he
knew how to shut it down, shut it off, and
get straight to work. To so much so that he's
about to kill a song. He about to kill that bitch,
you know what I mean. It's not about to be
some ship where you got to put him away up,
you know what I mean. He's not about to rap
about whatever the hell they was just talking about. I
would notice little things, like all significant things like that,

(21:31):
like wow, we all was just laughing about this one
subject and song is similar to the subject, but he
ain't say one thing about that. Yeah, I would know.
I would pittention to little things like that with him
to notice that. That's how broad, that's how wide his
mind was. And that's also what I meant by separating.
He was able to say separate, He was able to separate.
But uh, Doogie. As far as BG, what I got

(21:54):
from Doogie, Yeah, what I got from Doog, it was
straight style freak little Doogie is now Yeah, like I
you know, I literally doverybody it come home in probably
a few days or something.

Speaker 2 (22:07):
Yeah, man, that's beautiful.

Speaker 3 (22:09):
And what I got from him was, I wrote, with dude,
you know, we was really a group together, just the BG's.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
Before his name was BG.

Speaker 3 (22:16):
We was the BG's And so that's how he got
his name b g Z because they had a Z
at the end of it, and that people thought that
it should say be gz. It was the BG's and
I had got pulled away from the group, so all
they of us saw was doogie. So that's why they
were like, okay, must be be GZ. And so I
wrote with him, So I know we wrote. I know
we had the same writing styles and ship like that.

(22:38):
How we would approach a verse word place, counting U word,
the number of words, little things like that.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
So I took a bunch of style.

Speaker 3 (22:47):
He literally taught me a bunch of shit, like physically
taught me. Looking now, you just started like this that
type of shit.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
It's you on. How did the light of flick come about? Ship? Man?

Speaker 3 (23:00):
You know how to smoke? Yeah, you know, it's it's
literally it's on.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
God.

Speaker 3 (23:04):
I would not lie to you, bro. It's not a trade, monk,
It's not a because if it was we having singed
up there, and I wouldn't even have to do it.
You are listening to you can listen to every single
one is a different and the answer is simple and playing.
If you're a Wayne fan, you guys already got to
know that I'm about to smoke during the verse. I'm

(23:27):
lighting up for the verse, and that's cheating. Yeah, no, cheers,
let's go. It's not a trade became classic. It's not
a hold on, let me make sure I get them up.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
No, it's to the point where like when when motherfucker's
hear for the song, they be.

Speaker 3 (23:41):
Like, oh, I feel like that too when I hear it.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
I heard it.

Speaker 3 (23:48):
I heard a few flicks on some other songs that
you're not delivering like I live, so stopped doing that.

Speaker 4 (23:56):
I got a question like, obviously you have to listen
to your music. When when do you want to hear it?
When don't you want to hear it?

Speaker 3 (24:04):
Uh? I want to hear it all the time, and
I don't want to hear it never ever, so all
the time, So I listen to no one else. Oh okay, yeah,
but it's no, it's I'm always listening to what I
just did.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
When I'm trying to fix and ship.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
So it's not by choice that I don't hear when
I say no one else, I mean not even my
own artist. So that's I always like to let get
that out there when I say that, I don't listen
to no one else like gu Gotta little text me, Yo,
this is such and such a new single and the video.
Oh ship they got a video due Damn, I ain't

(24:42):
knowing that motherfucker. It's awesome right there. He killed that ship,
he killed that shop. I might listen to the first
four of ours already said on the first one, he
text like Nigga said, get back to my ship.

Speaker 2 (24:58):
That's that's the only reamon.

Speaker 3 (24:59):
Let's tell you, I gotta I'm a perfectionist, trying to
make sure that I should have said is you should
have probably said the you probably shouldn't even sit in
that type of ship.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
Got you? What do you think two thousand and four
of the quarter? What do you think the Carter did
for your career? Uh?

Speaker 3 (25:23):
At the time, I think it gains. I think it's uh.
It was the start of it was the start of
a path I was able to create, you know, I
mean the path of uh the path that deserved continuous,
deserve to continue, and a continuation, a pat that deserved

(25:44):
to extend. And that's as hard for some people. Some
people could drop a hard ass album and I don't
hit the rest, you know what I mean, I ain't
looking for your next album.

Speaker 2 (25:53):
But the card allowed me to. Now we want hit
car to Car three, you know.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
So I always looked at it like it was a
maturity thing for me, like it was my little.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
For some reason.

Speaker 3 (26:05):
We always approaching just for the carter, Like, you know
what that one every time we're working on obviously, you
know I work all damn day every day. So when
we get one that you know, it's for the cartness,
So it's nothing about it. Yeah, So it's like, so
what makes this for the cussop? Obviously it sets a standard.
I set a standard with that album, Yeah, exactly, a
big standard.

Speaker 4 (26:25):
Uh mix tape, Wayne, I mean that was unbelievable, you know,
after the part of one and two? Uh, what was
the thinking behind them? Just that whole by the way
he told me to do this, by the way, yeah
what you said it was?

Speaker 2 (26:46):
Just what was it? What was the whole thought process
behind the mixtape? Push? The first one is you know,
the first one I did was just.

Speaker 3 (26:54):
Getting okay from baby that him telling me is okay,
like I could buy out this music that when he.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Was okay, it's all good ship. So that was the
first one I put out.

Speaker 3 (27:03):
I think it was like ten thousand bars and they
start calling him the mixtapes and whatever.

Speaker 2 (27:08):
We was giving that shit out free.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
So that was actually the thing about Wayne shit, Wayne's
always free. Wayne's always free. So I don't blame me
that charge and switch the game up on y'all flipped
it up to me too much now that I actually
got charge off of my mixtapes now, so don't blame me,
blame the game. But yeah, so as far as you know,
and my approach to mixtapes was always different. I always

(27:30):
thought a mixtape was supposed to be and I still do.
I still do my mixtapes that we I thought it
was supposed to be. You wanting to hear me on
the songs that's out that I'm not on, you know
what I mean, Like ten ten hot that songs that
you're in the club banging Terry Dale or whatever I
am about killing bitches for you, you know what I mean?
And I thought that's what and I'm gonna rap it.

(27:51):
I'm gonna say the same melodies the person used was
about a good two seconds. But you know what I mean,
I'm flip some words and shell like make it fun.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
And I always thought that's what it should be and
so something.

Speaker 3 (28:03):
That's why that that's how I tack my mixtapes, and
that's how I always have.

Speaker 2 (28:06):
But now mixtapes have changed. How people be looking for
four albums.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
You driving a mixtape and so gutting to be having
to make sure you're i mean mag having to make
sure y'all do at least three or four just originals,
and I'm like, mac man, this is my album or
it's for something. But now this is what the guys
is about.

Speaker 4 (28:25):
Yeah, yeah, take us through the creative process.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
How long does it take for you too? Are you rolling?
You're not?

Speaker 4 (28:32):
Got a handful of songs in the day, sang the time.
Take us behind the scenes and people who haven't seen
you in the studio.

Speaker 3 (28:40):
It depends on what I'm doing it for. Its features.
Features usually come with a subject, you know what I mean.
So I mean that person send me a song, this song,
I already got a subject.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
They got a hook on there. I'm real good with
you know.

Speaker 3 (28:52):
I mean, when you give me a subject, I'm it's
like school, I was, I won't finish my work first.
And I mean, so I want to impress the damn teacher.
You're the tach, whoever the artist was that sent me
the song. I want to impress you stick to this
damn subject and so that those are pretty And I
dont want to say eating nothing's easy, but those are
pretty convenient for me.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
As far as my ship. You gotta come, you know,
you gotta, you gotta come.

Speaker 3 (29:18):
And stop me and tune. We need we need X
amount of songs by this date. And and I just
give you like I mean, I let y'all pick them, man,
because I can't pick and ship like that. And it's
but I'm always you know, I'm doing so much different
music now that that process has changed. I mean, my
studio now, my studio sessions now consist of the musical,

(29:42):
you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (29:43):
I'm I'm in bands.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
I have bands, have new artists, you know what I mean,
have a legend, have legends on the on the label.
You know, some different artists that gotta go and dump it,
jump into their world now jump into their zone, which
is fucking awesome.

Speaker 4 (29:59):
M the Carter three the most successful album h a
million in the first week.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
What made that project so great? Ship? The fans and
I just did what I do?

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Man?

Speaker 3 (30:15):
Can they You would really have to probably ask the
fans that one, because they're the ones who bought it.

Speaker 4 (30:20):
Made it what it was, named their sons after it,
named their sons after.

Speaker 3 (30:24):
Shout out and shout out Kyle. I just would have
been sant France and it was in sant France.

Speaker 4 (30:28):
Yeah. No, that was you know, the ability to have that,
have the success and then the Grammys that came with it. Yeah,
what is talk to us about that and just what
kind of you know, blessing that is that?

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Right? That was an amazing blessing. I think that night, this.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
Period, I felt I felt uh it was I felt recognized.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
M hm.

Speaker 3 (30:49):
You know what I mean, because what I mean by
that is I could run into j and all of
them and they tell me face to face like, Nigga,
you the ship nig killed me. Oh that's cool, but
you can't get it rewarded, you know what I mean?
Award whatever, when you get awarded and we recognize your greatness.
It recognize your effort whatever. And they ain't got a
tendment with the ward. They got to say you're the

(31:10):
greatest ever, the readiest rapper a lot. It's whatever it says.
It's the same. We recognized it. Your effort was worth.
This ain't no better feeling. Because when you do it
for when you, I don't know what other people do it.

Speaker 2 (31:20):
For the right reason.

Speaker 3 (31:21):
I turned it to you today, I ain't still haven't
looked for a dollar yet, so when you're doing it
from I just love to do this shit.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
Oh shit, I've been awarded for it.

Speaker 3 (31:30):
And that right there is when I look at them
motherfuckers when I wake.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
Up every day.

Speaker 3 (31:34):
I sent two in for repairing for like a month ago.
They ain't send my ships back and then said they
send them back real quick. I'm trying to figure out
what's going on.

Speaker 4 (31:42):
They got going the hostage man, Mister Carter, you got
to shoot with Jay. What was it like finally getting
an opportunity to work with someone you you know you
idolize as a youngster.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
You already know.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
I mean that the nerves are flowing. You know you're
trying to make sure you make sure you want the
same error. Do you want to make sure you not
doing or saying nothing wrong and all that? Also you
want to make sure you stay cool, and then then
you also want to keep stay honest and showed show
him like now I want.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
You to see like big stuff. I really fox with you,
you know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (32:15):
And also you know here he beyond real and so
he helped me out in personal matters and shit like
that too. So just to know just for him to
do that ship things like that.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
Figure the music.

Speaker 4 (32:26):
Yeah, were you guys in the state studio together by chance?

Speaker 2 (32:29):
For that? For which joint for mister Carter? Uh?

Speaker 3 (32:34):
No, I think when I think during that, if I
don't be right, I don't be wrong.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (32:39):
If I don't know if that was around the time
I was locked up.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
All right slow and when I passed it said what up?
Killer man? Stop bringing up my past? Uh Kanye produced
mister Carter. Can you talk to his his greatness?

Speaker 2 (32:57):
Yeasy? Yeah man? Yes, I mean, if you don't.

Speaker 3 (33:03):
Have if you're not a musician or artist or whatever,
you haven't you know, you haven't witnessed it or you
you don't have to hear for that, then you may
not know that.

Speaker 2 (33:12):
But he's a total genius playing and simple.

Speaker 3 (33:15):
And what I mean by that is, you know, he's
he can stop being Kanye West at any time and
start being Kanye East and be the best at that
as well.

Speaker 2 (33:26):
He's a genius when it comes to music, you know
what I mean.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
I mean, whatever route he wanted to go, he wanted
to make it to be gospel, whatever it's gonna be great.
We still packing the arenas to see it. He might
be can put on a mask, don't even know if
it's him there rapping it, but fucking we hears because
he's a genius playing and simple. Some of us don't
have it like like that, because you know, it's just

(33:49):
because I'm a little too.

Speaker 2 (33:50):
Cute, and I know they want to see that.

Speaker 4 (33:51):
Meaning I'm gonna name a few people in a few words, explain,
explain the eminem fucking.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
A jewel, a jewel, rare air, rare air. Kobe.

Speaker 3 (34:10):
I think one word for me when it comes to
COVID is just total mentality, not my mentality state.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
Kobe's Aline Ross.

Speaker 3 (34:25):
Ross Ship Ross to me, I don't know what what
anybody else se but for me, when I first heard
Ross and it's always been the same for me. Ross
was to me was a a breath of fresh air
from the south. Sounded someone reminded me so much of
not you know, he's not that, but reminded me of

(34:46):
another notorious big and it being coming from the South.

Speaker 2 (34:50):
What I mean by that is the voice and things
like that.

Speaker 3 (34:53):
You know what I mean him embracing them, embracing them,
you know, bigger embrace than New York shit. He embraced
his character with the versaicy and Ross really embraced embraced
his rose Ship And you know, I mean, it's like
he's no character, but it's that shit is amazing to
me to embrace it, something to look forward.

Speaker 2 (35:14):
To all the time.

Speaker 3 (35:15):
U g K legends mm hmm. Plain and simple Nipsy
ship Nip. I know Nip. I don't know Nip obviously,
I don't know him like that, but I would.

Speaker 2 (35:27):
I wouldn't.

Speaker 3 (35:28):
I don't want to start that by saying I know
Nip a little different than everybody else. I know n
Nip a little different than everybody else. So my answer,
my answer for Nip w first would be probably first
and last is a.

Speaker 2 (35:44):
Father. M m m.

Speaker 4 (35:46):
That's tough. Speaking of fatherhood. Yeah, your little man called
right when you sat down. I mean, what does fatherhood
mean to you? We see you all the time with
your kids courtside of games, doing daddy ship obviously as
busy as you are.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
How important is making time for the kids? Oh? Man,
that's why it's important. Ain't even the words, that's that's life.

Speaker 3 (36:03):
It's like, yeah, that's how you know, like you need
food to live, like just that's just how. That's just
how it goes. I didn't have one of those. I
didn't have a father, so you know what I mean.
So I was like, it's not easy to do something
you didn't have done for you and try to figure
it out and trying to figure it out. Also when
you you, you know what I mean, you're in a
position like myself. You don't ask no nigga, you know

(36:26):
what I mean, anybody I don't ask how.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
You just how you do? Know? Figure it out? I
figure it out?

Speaker 3 (36:32):
So shi like that is. I mean, I'm at the
age not to it's not a challenge no more. But
it was a challenge before. They'll love that cancels all
the challenges out two thousand and nine. How did you
feel when you landed Drake.

Speaker 2 (36:50):

Speaker 2 (37:07):
I want them to see what they can be.

Speaker 3 (37:09):
Yeah, and they, you know, they always leaned on that.
They always leaned on my confidence. I instilled in almost
like when you see the veterans on the team for
the young Naby, like he's instilled in his confidence.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
And yeah, they've leaned on that. And I made sure
I was always there.

Speaker 3 (37:25):
How you met Nikki, we was looking for We was

Speaker 1 (39:25):
Favorite song by both of them, Nicky and Drake.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
The can first come to your mind.

Speaker 3 (39:31):
For Drizzy, my favorite song from Drizzy would have to
be I Really Love, I really really loved started.

Speaker 2 (39:44):
From the bottom.

Speaker 3 (39:46):
But it's a song before all that, you know, it's
a song before all that, and it's uh, I don't
know when he put this song out, but it's one
of my still one of my favorite songs, because this
is what I've always seen in him and told him
from day one.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
He got he got an old one. He got an
old one. That's what always was telling. But you know,

Your house for real? You know unk something? Man?

Speaker 3 (44:18):
I just allowed to see her happy, right like you're
showing me a new crib smiling, yeah, shout out the uh,
so many so many.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
Rappers you see that you see today that we see
you in you know what I mean, from the from
the style, from the way you dress, from the half,
from the tattoos, the prototype.

Speaker 2 (44:40):
What would you.

Speaker 1 (44:40):
Tell some of these artists that that look up to you,
that want to have the same longevity that you had
in the game.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
Be grateful.

Speaker 3 (44:48):
Be grateful for every single, every single second, the goods,
the bads, the upst the downs, and learn from everything,
not only from your mistakes, learn from everything, learn from
your high his points, yeah, everything, and again be grateful.
And yet because if you're doing this for real, because

(45:10):
I'm only talking to those when you ask me that question,
I'm not talking to the person that that you know
you was this before and you're a rapper now. And
you're trying to wrap, to stay from out of this,
and you're trying to rap. I respect all of that
is what do it? But I'm not talking to you,
talking to the one that was. Don't know why the
words are in your head when you wake up and

(45:30):
when you go to sleep, that person, because that's who
I am.

Speaker 2 (45:35):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (45:35):
So you ask me what I tell that person? Be grateful,
Be grateful for why you can't figure it out, can't
understand why you're so fucking awesome, can't figure out why
you're so great, can't figure out why you're so ahead
of your time, can't figure out why you while you
you have answers to things that no one even knows.

Speaker 2 (45:56):
The question to be grateful for that mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (46:01):
When people ask us what does basketball mean to us?
My answer is kind of like everything because it changed.

Speaker 2 (46:08):
My life, got me out the hood.

Speaker 1 (46:10):
Is that the same? That's the same kind of answer
you would give. Somebody asks you what hip hop means
to you? Know, what what would Johnson be? What hip
hop means to me?

Speaker 3 (46:22):
And my answer would be everything, But it's not, you know,
It's I look at it as my.

Speaker 2 (46:30):
What God created for me.

Speaker 3 (46:32):
In my time, I believe that we all are just
we all are we all are just we Everything's happened
before before, and I mean I mean not a life.
I'm just meaning like in this world were just in
last generation. All the same shit happened generation before that,
So you know what I'm saying. So back then it

(46:52):
was poets for whatever prolificion.

Speaker 2 (46:55):
I mean, it was this.

Speaker 3 (46:55):
She was that you was scripting it on us by
the body was holding people's attention, and you was making
the most of that attention with figuring out how to
put your thoughts towards and figuring out how to make
those words translate to the.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
People that you're trying to talk to.

Speaker 3 (47:12):
It make it make sense to them so much since
that they live not only like it, love it, they
live by it. And so I thank God that I
have I still have that. This is what my path
was as one of those guys.

Speaker 4 (47:27):
Quick hitters, coming down to the end. Right here, go ahead,
light that up and we're gonna get rolling home stretch.
It's been a good day, Jack Fucky, you gotta.

Speaker 2 (47:42):
Roller, Parlem, go ahead, I know how to problem. Here
we go. Uh.

Speaker 4 (47:54):
In your opinion, your top five artists of all time
hip hop hip hop stack what you said stack five?

Speaker 3 (48:06):
Uh? You know no arder right of course, Biggie course
j anybody knows me. You already know that.

Speaker 2 (48:22):
Miss it about to be right up and know that. Uh,
after that I got.

Speaker 3 (48:30):
I got U g K as a group as a whole,
and then after that I got Goodie Mob.

Speaker 2 (48:38):
Was that fire.

Speaker 1 (48:40):
So for for a lot of people know I'm from Portoltha,
can you just give a brief how you how you
in U g K became so close? Like how you
met them? How y'all became cool? Bun Bun Uh, Bun
was with cash money for moment.

Speaker 2 (48:56):
Yes, a lot of people don't know that. Yeah, a
lot of people don't know I was with b was
with cash money for a nice time.

Speaker 3 (49:02):
And uh he attracted to me and my my my relent,
you know me wanting to always rap rap. Bunn is
a rap head, you know what I mean. Bun tried,
Bun tried his hardest. Not Bun tried his hardest to
keep that ship southing for y'all. He figured it out.
But Bunn is a fucking hip hop here. He really
want to be on that mo fuck just like I

(49:23):
used to want be on them before your son. All
that you all that he you know, just knowing him
so on the roll on tour and things like that.
I was always his road. I'm his road. We were
writing together. When when I have a song, a feature
to do or something like that, we got a big
song we're doing. I'm making sure my verse something checking
with Bun first of all, or recall that ship. That's

(49:45):
all and he giving me not young. You should probably
say this and I love that.

Speaker 2 (49:52):
M J.

Speaker 1 (49:52):
Kobe Bron Rankle, m J Kobe Braun Rankle, Yeah, come
on with it. Tone Brian mm one, yeah, m hm

(50:15):
Mike and Kobe?

Speaker 2 (50:17):
What was Simba? Simba was Bron Kobe? Mike right?

Speaker 4 (50:22):
Oh, A's right, yeah yeah, the AI Bron talk about
his greatness. I mean, you're someone who's been in this
game twenty five plus years.

Speaker 2 (50:32):
He's in it twenty years, had a relationship with Kobe
and Broun right, what is what? What? What?

Speaker 4 (50:37):
What? I like that? What makes Bron so special in
your opinion? What makes Kobe so special in your opinion?

Speaker 2 (50:43):
Brian?

Speaker 3 (50:44):
I don't know Brian like personally, So my answer for
Brian to be from you know, from Afar watching from Afar, Brian,
and it's on the court. Brian, you gotta remind yourself
that I mean. I mean, I know for a fact
I love Jordan for the way he fucking always won.

(51:06):
And the kid you don't you don't know too much
about the ins and outs and all the other ship
that we love now in the game that I'm old
enough to care about.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
So I just who won. That's my favorite player. He
better win.

Speaker 3 (51:17):
He always fucking win, That's all I know, you know
what I mean? So I know I got old enough
to know how hard it is to fucking do it
back to back to back, you know what I mean.
So that's that's why he got his games. Is respect
with me, you know what I mean. Start getting his respect
with me to he's the greatest, you know what I mean?
Then I would so I would know. I noticed that, Okay,
Brian done that ship. It's very hard to do. It's like,

(51:40):
damn that nigga, Brian had done that ship with three teams.
Mm hmmm, that that's right there. That's when I was like, regardless,
he ain't got six. I was like, but damn he
done it with three different teams and and not on
one of those motherfucking teams. Have he was did he
played part two? I mean road too. He still can

(52:01):
get six though. That's the scary point. Yeah, definitely, that's crazy.

Speaker 2 (52:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (52:08):
And so that right there is with Tip Tim over
the Jordan skiff for me, because you already know I
was Jordan's. You couldn't have that conversation with me. It
wasn't even conversation until I have to really think, like,
you know what, Slim is still in this ship twenty
years strong, you know what I mean? Like Slim is
fucking amazing. He's been amazing every year every since, like

(52:29):
he ain't never prime always like when they be saying,
you know, like you need to retire you on top.
You know what I'm saying that cliche you need to
tie you on top to anyone like you need to retire,
retire on time. It's the best way to go on
like that, nigga, Brian don't even know what the middle
feel like about. It's all he's ever been like. So

(52:50):
that right there is just amazing, you know what I mean,
His longevity and whatever he did doing to his body
or what is or whatever if that nigga, he must
be praying a maid nigga protected, you know what I mean,
and I respect it and Bron we trust, yeah, and
I respect. I respect. That's why he tip. That's where
he took the meter from me. Because he's doing this

(53:12):
and then off the court, you can't even come on, come.

Speaker 2 (53:16):
On, yeah, that right there. We ain't seen nothing like
that from a superstar.

Speaker 3 (53:19):
Like like you know, Brian and Brian named and snuck
into my my my rants and just what I mean
by that, Like when I'm having a conversation with my
bros and whatever and I'm you know, my artists and whatever,
and I'm like, you know, I want to talk about
a nigga with money money, you know what I mean,
it used to be it still is, you know what
I mean, like niggause you know, I'm trying to get to.

Speaker 2 (53:40):
What you know, not ship Brian.

Speaker 3 (53:42):
I noticed Brian has snuck into one of them coming
call me off, going I'm right, like you know the
niggas Brian man, all right, boy, yeah, I mean that's
it's amazing. But brought the team with him. Yeah, and
then the school ship and that ship. Come on, man,
you ain't really camp but into what you still you
know what I mean, don't do nothing you ain't because

(54:04):
I believe when you get.

Speaker 2 (54:04):
Money like that, you don't do nothing you ain't genuine about.

Speaker 3 (54:09):
I'm too rich to give a fuck about some ship
that you're asking me to do.

Speaker 2 (54:12):
Yeah, you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (54:13):
So the things that he choose to really care about
is amazing.

Speaker 1 (54:16):

remembered by.
