I'm like, yo, Buck, these Ships is coming out five,
so don't really got if we can't really fund this
project the right way, we're gonna do it ourselves. Let
me let me any of those records on the album
all they all okay, okay, years ago, cool, cool.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
The hell out of here, get out of here.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
We had it like two records at the end. But yeah,
that's the beauty of it sounds right now, it sounds
like we got done. Buck. I'm like, we could still
listen to this ship after the million the times we
heard it, and it's still so good. Right, we got
some I'm saying, that's what I know. And obviously this
is independent, yeah yeah, sure came out through Tech nine
and Travis so Gwynn oh yeah, Virget distribution, RGI, the

(03:13):
group and we flew out there and meet with Tech
and them niggas like eight twenty seventeen, like and this
is just coming down there, man, you gotta start putting
music out. Did the deal with straight finished the project,
like no a good good music last, and it's like
it's toimless. It's like you could put it on it

(03:34):
and it's like, yo, you know what eight years from
now and it's like and Norman, this would be like, yo, mom,
if you drop Normy's songs, like you know, all the
Pharrell's songs, like every Snory song from the nineties, like
it's Thomass ye yeah, yea. Because I'm what the call
came on the other day on the radio when your

(03:55):
girl was looking, Oh yeah, I like this right, no
age he tell me ask you buck. You know our
brother Fad. Joe has a great show that's happening right now,
Joe and Jada. The biggest thing about Joe is everyone
says he's capping. He was just talking about that. You
know him for years, you know how longer than not

(04:17):
talking about that. What do you a? No cap? No
cat's exaggeration. It's not that. It's not it's a little
wight exaggeration, yeah, like ten percent, but it's no cat.
It's no cat. Yeah. People eat it up. People be like, yo,
you know what, yo, what that nigga is capping? Like

(04:37):
he's leaning into that point. It's somebody on the internet
right now that says that they're his uncle. And I don't.
I don't know if it is or not, Like uncle,
you got to stop. And it's like it's so interesting.
I click on another car and I don't want to
ask to him. I don't want to ask the guy.
But so you say, Joe's no cap, no cat man. Okay, okay,

(05:01):
let's let's let's give one story though, all old stories.
I believe ninety nine percent of them, just the high
school one.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Oh yeah, I wanted to the bar.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
I want years old. He said niggas was helping him
carry the ship out, like niggas helped me around. But
I believe that, you know, right right, wanted he wasn't
one of the niggas. We want to do two different schools.

(05:38):
But it's like, yo, I believe, like you know a
lot of that because you know, some exaggeration like ten
percent sprinkler sauce to make people be like, oh you
know he's tapping. Everybody knows Fat Joe serious dude, had
always been a serious guy. Back then it was game.
It was a fat gangster. He's a skinny got what Yeah,

(06:06):

So when they did Funky Technician from always thought this,
yeah yeah, yeah that was only DJs knew that ship Man,

Speaker 4 (09:24):
Now.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
This is this is the hip I breaking news he
went to the Bronx had but it's like Brooklyn and
then it's like he lived in maybe Ogden Avenue in
the Bronx and that that was it. Oh I never
knew that. I know, he's part of digging in the
crazy crazy And then who came up with the name,
who said, let's call this collective d I T C.

(09:48):
I think that came from from Showman Diamond digging, you know,
like finding out you know, oh we're digging. Oh yeah,
we're digging in the crates and you know it's stuck.
M legends were born. But you know, cool for real,
Like that's always like a staple where it's like, you know,

(10:08):
we did correct. It's it's like no cap no, you
know how you say nor ship. It's like they want
to have the but we want to have the best
beats and the best songs.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
And it's like that's what it is he.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
Did for Crates dig four Crates Crates Ship. But I
don't know, I don't know different, but I say legendary.
So boom, let's take it to you. So, so how
did you how did you get started in this game?

Speaker 2 (10:43):
I just man, I got started.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
Pain. We know that you was and it was it
was right now. I was Yeah, I was in the
jail house group called seven up. He was like, who tang?
Who called seven? It was all God body, That's why
seven might work. Still to this day, I'm telling the
gods got was missing in the game. That really is

(11:07):
what's missing. I was just crazy that whole area everybody
came through that made the impact with God. Body, make
sure we get back to the beginning, because I just
wanted to say something listening to this album the one
man the Crazy Ship that I learned listen to this
album and learned listening to your music, is that Tupac
would have been your friend? Oh yeah, I would. I

(11:30):
like listening to all your ship knowing that we had
your book, and I was like, Yo, Sa gone in
a crazy world gone, True life Tupac and I forget
the two others that I named. It's like it's the
Gasters street guys, but they have none and they're telling

(11:54):
you don't like, don't your brother man. It's like it's
like it's funny with true life. People don't know his
name stand for the Righteous, uniting those living in the
fantasy environment about that's the street bar. Actually like I
loved music, like he got records with Jay Niles together,

(12:17):
Snoop and all this, and I'll be just looking at
him sometimes like how the funk? You don't put this out? Still,
like you don't put it out like but if you
listen to like he be dropping knowledge, you think it
like it was so but Puerto Rican godbout it? What
do you think? What do you think life would have
been like had Tupac been alive during during your era?
I wish because he had that lane open for that

(12:38):
kind of ship. Like you was listening to more music.
It wasn't just about no real you know, drill tough ship,
trap ship. It was more so you had to have
some kind of message ship. And that's what hip hop was. Man.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
When we grew up on hip hop, we were.

Speaker 1 (12:50):
Listening to ex claim and ship like that. They came
about reading I went to school talking about he was like,
I know, I was saying, we used to brag about
having no gold with downions, no gold, no pig, Somebney

(13:13):
buddy him with some black ship and then brand Nubian brand.
You look at poor righteous teacher hell those guys. So
that's when I was looking up to their motherfuckers like yo,
even though I was in the street D four woundand
doing dumb ship when I got when I picked up
a pen, I was like, you know, try to be
like one of these motherfuckerdrop. I thought I was one
of the Jungle Brothers and some ship and they just
never left. Like so when I as I evolved, I

(13:34):
just kept I kept happening and I had to have
social commentary in my ship. And another thing that happened
in jail one time one day because I did have
the gangster ship when they am in the yard and
I'm your father, Yeah, I was in there killing you'll only.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Go bust my gun.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
It was ship and they walked up and he's like, yo,
you like to hear something because everything you rabbing got
your monkey ass in here? He said, you like, yo,
what I like it in here? Like I said, you
like your hair. I never heard the nigga say like
your hair, you know. And I was like, hey, fuck
like and ship for the birds. He was like, well,
you spend everything that got you up in here. Everything

(14:08):
you talk about is the reason you hear right. I'm like, damn,
I never looked at it like that, And that made
me kind of be conscious to that when I was
writing ROMs, like, you know what, because it's kids that
look up to us, kids emulate us, and they want
to be like us. So I'm like, I'm gonna be
a little bit conscious of it. So there was a balance,
like and honestly, when I went full positive, that's when
my career went tank. That's when niggas, you can't go

(14:29):
full positive. Now you can't like the preacher. I gotta
believe the preacher. I got to see the smoke a
joint like like you know what I'm saying, Like I
got like, you can't do you can't be perfect, Like
you know what I'm saying, Like Twin Twin saying Friday
like I only trusted when he asks for some bod
I was like, all, I trust a preacher, you know
what I'm saying, Like, yeah, you got to have a

(14:49):
little bit. That's why five was thirteen X was very successful.
There was thirty X did not go to the people
who were perfect, right to the people who was mistaken,
who were mistaken, and so easy to fix a person
who already has a mistake that you identified that mistake,
so you know what I mean. So that's the reason
why teach niggas math for dice. So niggas thought they
was gambling, but he's teaching the mathematics. Wow, sitting there

(15:11):
thinking they're gambling, but he's teaching the mathematics, that's saying.
So he was using Yeah, he was using the that
they to really give the mathematics. What's interesting? What's the
bronx really? Uh? The city of the Gods at one point? Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay,
so Joe, Joe ain't capped with that crack, but they

(15:44):
probably was calling him that because it's like he's from Godsville. Yeah,
and it's like, you know, Forrest is like that's the name,
and it's like, yo, he had a rep. And it's
like the rep grew bigger, and it's like, you know,
like he grew bigger, and it's like, Yo, that's exploded.
You know what I'm saying. Right right, let's make some
noise for the god crack came along. Man. That's a

(16:08):
good context. It is well because when you put it
in that perspective, I can see it, like you can
see that, like you said, god, body everybody know Joe,
like Joe hung with like pistols from my block. Yeah,
piece from my block and which one here? Black on
the black okay, Latin one. Yeah, but the reckless Pistol Pete,

(16:32):
like Pete went to jails like fucking you know, in
and out of jail. It's like all of them, all them
dudes with like yo, you know from this like you
know they are you know, they are like Joe and
it's like Joe saved like Pistol, you know what I'm saying,
Like yo, he was like yo, you know what when
Pistol came home, Like I went to the studio to

(16:53):
see game and I was like, yo, what's good, like
you know, YadA, YadA, YadA, So like yo, you know what.
It was dope because it's like stay out. Yeah, that
was his like even though like you know, he would
do things like Yo, this is this is this is
where you want to be, you know what I'm saying.

(17:13):
And that's it all right and now you're killing all
the rats kills. Didn't you work on Sean album? Yeah?
How is that like?

Speaker 2 (17:20):
Working with Sean?

Speaker 1 (17:23):
Sean is? Sean is real cool? Like he'd be by
himself Sean. Yeah, okay, he shot to Jamal Jamal's kids
from Jamal Barrows.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
He was a wild kay though he was always a
little recles.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
But all of all the known rappers like Famous from Bronx, no,
not from Bronx New York, like you like all of
them famous, like yo, they put him work right, and
it's like that's the thing where it's like now rappers
would be like yo, you know what I'm rapping. Now,

(17:57):
It's like yo, let me go put and work. But
it's like, yeah, I didn't supposed to work before that. Yeah,
you waschool like hustling backwards way back.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
He doesn't exist anymore. I understood that.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
I was on the phone with Max B yesterday two
days ago, and Max we was on phone for.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
About hour and a half.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Bro like just and he like, yo, Bro, I gave
seventy seventy five years.

Speaker 2 (18:19):
Man, he had year I had say.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
Like right, he did twelve twelve now like I got
eight weeks left by years.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
He just you know, he laughed like he.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
Wullieve that, sis, I said, yo, And he did it
eight piece before he became Max B. So he did
eight years, came home, got home and then got caught
up in that ship. So God just God gave him
another shot, like we had him on drink champs, and
I asked him. I was like, you think you can compete?
And I don't think he liked that question. But it's

(18:51):
an honest answer, right, because when you were in jail,
like like one thing about Sean, he was just speaking
about Shine like it the the first records, Like you
could tell College kind of rushed the record.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
You could tell that Sean had a step behind.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
You could tell like if he gets if you if
you waited two more weeks, you know what I mean?
And like a similar So that's the thing. What do
you think about maxb You know what I heard? I
heard some music he's been doing in there because he
got a studio and shipping. Then he got got a

(19:29):
whole studio in itself. Bro the nigga.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
He got some fire ship Bro, and he's like, I.

Speaker 1 (19:34):

of He's like, I got quality records. He's gonna do
good because people as anticipating them. But the song I
heard sound great, like he sounds he didn't miss a step,
you know, sound like you know vibs Cartel had studios
that Bob had pro to videos. Girl, you know I

(20:11):
didn't realize how big he was until he can't until
he got out. Jet I knew he was popping when
he got out and he sold out the motherfucking Barclays
in the garden. I'm like, let me, let me let
you know how I know how pause how big he is.
Everywhere I go, people coming to me and go, what

(20:33):
World Boss, Like good job with the World Boss. I'm like, like,
I don't know what the to say. Like they get
straight to the point, like I don't really know you
you know what, But you interviewed the world Boss. And
I'd be like, okay, I'll be like I'll take the
compliment world Boss, like you're the boss of the whole world.

(20:55):
God damn he's that. I'm the world Boss. So that's ship.
One time. I know we spoke about this, but one time,
and I love the fact that y'all speak now. But
where was the actual problem of you a mob deep
in the S O B ship you I went to
C T O N Y I was. I didn't want

(21:22):
to go.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
I knew I have smoke with them niggas.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
I'm like, yo, I never seen Compona norig alive niggas
Like nah, Mob Deeper is opening up I don't give
a fun play the cut, and once once y'all get
on stage, I'm out of it. I'm like, why time
they going be going? So i just want to see
them and ship. And then some fucking Peter Rosenberg was like, nah,
you got to do your single. You gotta single, you
got to represent and I'm like, right, I'm like to

(21:47):
take the place. Take the place for that, trust me
the whole, Please the place for that. You know, it's crazy.
We were separated and it was and this was like
the first time in New York City's headline and overwhelmed.

(22:07):
I wanted to see t O n Wild.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
So that's one of my favorite hip hop songs.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
So but let me ask you, right, so everyone knows
how that ended, right, but how did y'all initially get
together and squash it? Because he was gonna before he died,
we was getting on the phone.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
Okay, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
It was like listening up because we was friends before that.
A lot of people don't realize me and prod we
was in friends, but we was.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
We was cordial.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
It was cordial, and then ship happened with true That's
what got me.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
That's where it started, what did you do? True Rob?

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Yeah, he paid them for a verse and Prodigy used
a verse on another song. So he was like, either
give me, give me the money back, or give me
a new verse.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
Which is fair? Which is fair?

Speaker 1 (22:48):
And he started like like not picking up the phone,
is it Like I'm gonna tell you. I'm gonna tell you.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
He started doubling them something like they think.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
Once he started saying that was like.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
I'm gonna tell you us.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
We should do that. Back in the days, we used
to be like, well, being a studio session, somebody would
have a back for us. We didn't want to write
the round real quick. So we just infamous for that.
I know this because I'm a mix tape so I've
seen it all the time. Let me tell you something.

(23:22):
The other day was Na's birthday, right, so they start
tagging him on all like like his freestyles that he
had and I had like three or four freestyles.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
I was like, all of these shis is on my album.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
I was right on this. I don't know some nigga
be wasting some fire. I'd be like, yo, I would
have kept that ship for a song. You don't see
a nigga rapping on the radio and the should be
better than songs and ship like you should have kept
you giving away the good ship. Your ship said, like
ship they purposed the first song that Prodigy verse it

(23:55):
was it was dope.

Speaker 5 (23:56):
It was.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
MG rat true what What's true?

Speaker 1 (24:02):
Life said, Oh, it was dope record. So he never
replaced the verse and he didn't even get mad at
that point. He got mad when Son stopped replyings. He
just kind of pretty much was like because he was like,
if you won't give me a new verse, because someone's like,
oh my bad smoke a lot.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
That's Peter probably like.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
Y'all be getting He probably was right, yeah, y'all smoke
a love for God that I even use that ship.
He was like, I got you and give you a new,
brand new ship. Someone's happy. He was like, say less
and then a couple of weeks past and you know,
some whatever, a couple of months and then he just
stopped replying, so he said, I'm catch up with him?
You know, did he catch up with learning the industry? Like,

(24:39):
because you think these guys are your friends. At first,
you think like, like you know what you showed the
love that you showed them to show When you actually
realized that and you realize that these guys are pieces
of ship sometimes all the time. Sometimes that person would
just forgot you know what I'm saying, But like like
I can understand. So then what happened when True like
finally saw them caught up but he ain't catch peing

(25:02):
and how he caught like the whole infamous mob niggas
they caught him on Green Street studio.

Speaker 2 (25:06):
Yeah, and they robbed him and they.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
Stripped niggas naked and pistolhip Alchemis did a lot of
foul ship, like you know what I'm saying. It was
a little extreme for that, but you know I saw
niggas was on you know what I'm saying. And then
so I was get because I was with True every day.
I'm like guilty by association, like, oh that's his man
type shit. So we were bumping to them niggas and
they're like, yeah, what's up? What's up? Man?

Speaker 2 (25:27):
Like you know, you know what's sod.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
I'm on you know what I'm saying, because I'm cool shot,
But that's my brother being True. I know Truth is
our teenager, you know what I'm saying. So I'm like,
that's my brother. So you know what I'm saying. So
one thing led to do another to the point and
then they try to say we was burning mall deep
CDs on We had a stack of CDs. They should
just happened to be one of them. So we burned
everybody ship like all this shit is garbage. That's when

(25:50):
we was being reckless, Like we kind of invented a
lot of shit that's on the internet now, like the
ship niggas doing they trolling, We was doing it on DVD.
You know what I'm saying. You know true staff Champagne Rose,
he selected I want to take pictures with the niggas dollar.

(26:10):
It's a dollar to take a picture with his niggas.
Jewelry was fucked up. So then I was guilty by association.
So they was like, yeah, we're gonna We're gonna get
you when it happened. But because nothing actually initially happened
with y'all. But what was it for s obs that
all them niggas got on stage while I was on stage?
I wan't put nothing happened with y'all prior to that.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
Okay, Well, one.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
Time, one one time time, were about to get it on, okay,
and one of the niggas had a hammer and they
was like, yeah, we could kill you right now. I'm like, nigga,
a good day to die, Nigga, I ain't. I ain't
no cow, like what's up? And I was ready to go.
You act sickam all your act them. I was ready
to go. And then but it ain't. Nothing happened. So
but I knew now that that's when I knew we
had a problem because I'm like, I want to talk

(26:54):
to Prodigy and his man just trying to like put
his arm in front of him like so I'm like, so,
what's up with the hand say nothing, always putting to
be like, yo, that's my man. And he didn't say nothing.
So I'm like, oh, maybe you don't fuck me no more.
So from that point on, things just didn't go right
because he affiliated you Tube with the True Life Ship.
So then when when when the niggas got on stage,

(27:14):
I was like, fuck it. I thought they was gonna
speak touse living no angle lie. I'm like, I'm gonna
get minds off.

Speaker 6 (27:19):
And I told y'all was together. Yeah, everybody did that
because that's how close y'all were. Nigga like it was
cruel out. I was like, oh, like that.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Because niggas don't see thee Before they got on stage,
they started with everybody on stage. I was up there
by myself when by the time they showed the video,
it's fourteen motherfuckers on stage, and I'm looking around like
who are these niggas? But I keep rapping, you know,
and then like I'm thinking, these niggas like this, they
like this. I'm like, oh, this is and I've seen

(27:52):
my man Prince who I grew up with, who's Havoc's cousin,
and I'm like something, what is this? Like what's going on?
He's like you good son, you good? You problems? So
I was like, oh, fuck it, maybe it is love
until it was time to get off the stage yoked
me up, so all right, so it's popular. So then
we got it. We started fighting, and that was the
dumbest ship. That was dumb, like when you could be

(28:13):
too brave sometimes because had I not, had God not
been with me that day, they would have stomped a
fucking mud hole in my eyes. Think about it, when
y'all was running around right seeing in with y'all man
deep murdering unit and all that. But nigga would too
deep and would have snuffed you. What would have happened
to him? Nigga probably died like and I thought I
was gonna I was either I was like they were

(28:34):
gonna kill me or they gonna hurt me real bad.
But one thing they're gonna say is this niggas this
nigga went out And that's that dumb mentality. It's a
civil mentality. In hindsight, I wouldn't do it today. I
wouldn't do that. I'm saying that, but if I was
in my right state of mind, I'd be like, no,
I ain't doing that. Ship shot your shots that anything
could happen. Did y'all everythink and I'm gonna ask you don't

(28:54):
thank God? Nohing yeah show on both sides. Did you
ever think that will have a day where we were
talking about Cameron and Mate, excuse me name Dame after
Cameron and Jim Jones was beefing after Jim Jones and
Dame was beefing. Now that Cam and Dames beefing, do

(29:15):
you ever think that, like you like com home to
unite hall them. Everybody said, everybody get a clean slate,
everybody get a clean slate. When I come on needed
he does know how to deliver a great interview. Oh yeah,
deliver great entertaining. I couldn't tell they was going to
scrap at one point, you got to do that, told

(29:40):
me me as knowing Dame and me as knowing Charlotmage.
I wasn't worried at all. He wasn't. Yeah, I wasn't
at all. I'm like, that's a little spicy. They getting
a little spicy talk like I'll punch you in the
face the side, like turn the cameras on. But they

(30:00):
took pictures together afterwards and everything, so like you know, Dame,
Dame definitely know he's polarizing. That's one thing I give
him credit for. He gave a lot of dudes opportunity. Man,
And he wasn't you started the rocket for at one point? No,
I was, I was going. I was going. I didn't
know I didn't know I had the opportunity until Randy
actor to the fact that let you. I said, what

(30:25):
then say? He said, I should have let you do
the jigadale? He said, he said it was a jigger deal.
You didn't know.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
He said, you had ready to the Atlantic deal.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
I said, man, I could of got out of GM.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Jay could have made that ship go away.

Speaker 1 (30:43):
Like that with Retrospect. At that time, Atlantic was like
direct in competition with Depth, and they were they were
trying to like, well, so who's that because they had
the whole cra Okay, you let jay Z do his

(31:06):
thing over there, and I'm like, yo, son, I just
played we can go over here with with Jay. I'm like,
this should makes sense. We got the record, but I
didn't know that there was an opportunity for a day
because I used to be in Baseline every day, so
it kind of seemed like I was on Rockefeller. I'd
be in there with Bleak and Murder and Bonn and
all the niggas every single day. So I felt like
I was even though I was on a different label,

(31:26):
it felt like I was still Rockefeller out We do
our records together and so it was all good. It
was like a family. So you know, then when ship
went south with when they left, when they when they
left Atlantic, that's when I was like, I don't want
to be here because g and Hop left within like
a year, right, so I'm like I want to be
I don't talk, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
Yeah, Atlantic, he wasn't there.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
He had was in.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
Craig was running this ship because.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
They grew an industry, like when' what's the move? What's
the movie? Paper soldiers? The other one stay property, state
property too. Like they got an eighty Like when Beanie
went to jail, like I gave him an eighty thousand

(32:12):
dollars clearance from what the thug about? And they was
like they was beef and it's like, yo, you know
what He's like, Yo, how you gonna tell me? You know,
my producer, like you know, blah blah blah, and it's
like yo, he was like, yo, give it to him.
Like you know, he was like, yo, you know, beans
need a favor because they got beans beans in court

(32:32):
and they got to get up all the money, you know,
so to pay his legal fees. And that was that
was deeva. It's like, yo, eighty thousand all right, said
you had to give up? No, no, Like the Clarence
was eighty thousands, okay, okay, you know like a Clarence
used ten fifteen. Ye. They was like, oh, you know

(32:53):
it's an eighty thousand dollars Clarence maybe more.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
Well it's a clear to sample sugar about about damn.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
That's crazy, Come on baby with one hundred grand and
they took one hundred percent of the publishing. Jay Giles
mand I was like, but back then you don't be
knowing you just like it ain't my fucking money at
throwing up out. You don't realize until recouping you like, yo,
when you care about recouping, you care about you do

(33:22):
records like that, Like you know, after twenty five years,
I'll believe thirty years the records convert back to you.
You do records like that, those never convert back to you, Yeah,
because they get your wrap. Yeah, sure, like the J
Jeals Man, it's like that will that will push your album,
you know what I'm saying. And you can have you know,

(33:45):
like Booty records on the album and it's like through
one hot record that'll that'll make it move, you know
what I'm saying. And that's that's what it's for. Like
sometimes it's like, Yo, you know what I didn't play
this sample or I played this sample? Is they took
everything and it's like, yo, that's it. Like Isaac Hayes

(34:05):
did that with Faith record you produce, Yeah, they got
eighty poppers in the publishing. Dam what else? I don't
need him. Jesse Jackson took all the.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
Publishing Jesse Jackson, Yeah, Jesse Jackson.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
Jesse Jason ran for president.

Speaker 7 (34:26):
Yeah yeah, Jesse Jackson, you said Jackson DJ CO.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
But like I had a lot of clearances, like even
though people don't know, like yo, what you've done. Like
I had a lot of clearances and like movies and stuff,
it's like, yo, it's insane. So it's I was like, yo, Sean,
you know what it is? Like, Oh you know, yo,
he won one hundred percent? All right, cool, you know

(34:53):
at least I got. I got the other part, you
know what I'm saying, Not the publishing part, but you know,
the sales part. So when they take on a hundred percent,
you still get paid though, right oh no, no, don't
produce it, don't get paid. It's two parts like either
if the publishing and the master the mechanical, like mechanical,

(35:18):
Like I got the mechanical because it's like it was
public domain. So like I ate, you know what I'm saying,
but I didn't eat. But it's like, you know, the publishing.
I think what he's asking is for just making the bee.
You still get paid, like you're making work for high No, no,
not not publishing like it originally.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
Yeah, like the label has to pay for the clears
of the sample, but for you to actually make the beef,
you got to clear it something.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
Yeah, there's a lot of money, but like real, you know,
but real, like yo, I got a lot of money
just doing beats like then, because it's like I was
turning out beats and turning out beats and all of
them still.

Speaker 2 (36:06):
Play today, right, you know, to look, I got a
lot of ship. So let me just tell you something.

Speaker 1 (36:16):
It was. It was one era like there's always like
two producers, right, so it's like Primo and Pete Rock, right,
Swiss and Timberland, and then I remember this one era
it was just.

Speaker 2 (36:28):
Buck Wild and easy LP. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (36:33):
I found out easy LP record, which one is that
it's a record called Come Again. Like I would do
a record and then you'd be like, yo, you know what,
I heard your record. I'm going to make beats and
it's like and then he do a record like I

(36:56):
remember when when.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
Sean ship, Like yo, I heard that ship.

Speaker 1 (37:00):
I was like, damn man, and that's that's going like
you know the next week, you know, I want to
rob and it's like, Yo, that was that and it's
like it was like yo one l P one one
buck Wild one LP one buck Wild and it's like, yo,
that was on fire.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
That was that was a dope error.

Speaker 1 (37:22):
Man.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
Imagine you ever did a compilation together like A side
and B side.

Speaker 1 (37:26):
We didn't. We didn't know, like yeah, like rappers competition
like and today no niggas will be like, oh, you know,
ain't no competition like we we like we'll be like, yo,
you know what I'm yo, I'm gonna smash that ship.
And that's what it is. It's like, you know, ain't
no competition like yo, you know, yo, you gotta wreck.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
Don't care about the art no more.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
That the creativity that's the whack part about it, Like
you don't hear music no more to make you be like, yo,
this is inspiring. Man, I want to go.

Speaker 2 (37:57):
I need man, you don't hear that ship?

Speaker 3 (37:59):
Like music is being ages to be in the media
sirt exactly like it where where you want the.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
Media to promote the music. Now it's like use music
to just do exact media exactly. That's the beaute about
your album is again it sounds like the culture, but
then it sounds like now right now, I'm well aware
of my age, well over in my age seven. So

(38:29):
like that's that's the scary part for me. Is the
reason why I kind of don't want to make music
is not not completely, but this is one of the reasons, right,
It is because I don't know if I lost my ear.
This is what I mean, let me, let me, let me,
let me finish, or do I just want to hear
my type of music? Because like because I started to

(38:51):
sound like that old dude like my day, Like I
was like wait a minute, like hold on, hold up,
like you know what I mean. So so like what
I'm saying, like that's kind of inevitable, Like I want
by luxury to get my son's room. I'm not knocking it,
but I'm just like, am I become my parents because

(39:14):
I'm like, listen, one of the biggest rappers out I
don't understand none of that ship like Playboy CARDI.

Speaker 2 (39:21):
You ever listen to that ship?

Speaker 1 (39:22):
It ain't even like rat but it makes noises like
you're not even Hendrick. I don't know about my kids
listening to Kendrick. I'm saying, do you listen to Kendrick? Oh?

Speaker 2 (39:36):
I listen to and Drake.

Speaker 1 (39:37):
So when when you listen to Kendrick and Drake, you're like, yo,
you know you tuned in, so you got your hand
on a poster, like you know, hip hop, there's other ships,
you know, kids we listen to be like, I don't know,
I don't know what. I don't know what that ship is.
I don't know what it's from. Like my son be
like yo, putting putting songs in the car.

Speaker 2 (39:56):
I'd be like, Yo, what the fuck is that ship?
Reason why I would?

Speaker 1 (39:59):
I would me personally would appreciate some new music from
you because you always had your own style.

Speaker 2 (40:05):
You always ship your way like I used to be
like Yo, Norri.

Speaker 1 (40:09):
You know, like nobody.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
Creation it is.

Speaker 1 (40:11):
I always try to be in my lane, but I
don't know what lane going this time. It's like you
but it's your lane, like you know, you let your
mind get it million percent. Because it's something that I've
seen young Thug. They said to Young Doug and it
was like, Yo, why you ain't dropping music? And he
was like, I just don't have the energy around me.

(40:32):
And it's like.

Speaker 2 (40:34):
I thought of that.

Speaker 1 (40:35):
It's like sometimes like oh, maybe I'm scared of this generation.
Maybe I'm scared of just catered to my generation.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (40:41):
Like four four four was one of my favorite jay
Z jay Z's album and it wasn't because it was
the best jay Z album, but it was. It was
because it related to this time. He spoke to this
day in time. He didn't try to be a twenty
year old rapper. He's trying to be a grown uh married,
successful businessman and make dope raps. So that's the reason why,

(41:02):
that's why he stated he did.

Speaker 3 (41:04):
Himself like he did what I'm assuming he did the
music that he wanted to do that he appreciated.

Speaker 1 (41:08):
I know, sometimes it's not enough. That's that's what you
can't put yourself. So like ship, you know, like you
know what, I made the Ward report for us, but
I had in mind that the world was going to
do it. But if I would have made it just
for us, the world wouldn't have heard it. You know
what I'm saying about the world. But let me just
tell you something. When I listened to the ward report,

(41:28):
I'd be like, why the people even like this ship?
We were talking and the queen slang like you. I
didn't realize that what I listen to all that ship
right now the same feeling. Like me, music is about
a feeling, and I still get that feeling when I

(41:50):
what was that ship you had?

Speaker 2 (41:52):
Think mom, thug was on that ship.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
Keep you remember that it happened to now. We were
talking and he was like, yo, I don't know what
you're talk about because we were talking about queens. So
like the thing about it is, that's what's crazy about
the world is sometimes you make something for your little
block and that little world, the world that takes over.
That ship Charlotte made said he used to call the

(42:17):
old Queen's Bridge. They was in South Carolina, queens brand
because you draw people into your world, not you. You
be like, oh, you know, I'm gonna make this for
the You don't behind in the parraale like them, and
there me some ship, give me the Louis guitar. Yeat

(42:40):
kidding me. I don't know how to ask for friends
and family. I don't know to be that guy right now, brother,
I know that Louis ship. You gotta you gotta get
buying my own ship. No like you gotta point. I

(43:06):
gotta get get And by the way, let's make the
noise for real. For being the fucking Louis vuitar. It
sounds like kind of cliche, but it's not. And he said,
did you ever think that hip hop will take it
this far? Like crazy? Ship is like yo, bro, just
seeing Pharrell again living this big up Pharrell and big

(43:27):
up to clips, like seeing them in the Vatican like
a t K in my eye. Bro, that's crazy. Never
think about, like not only think about for me, but
think about for any artist.

Speaker 8 (43:37):
And then you sort the thing. You say, what the
isn't clips drug dealers? Like how the are they performing
in the vat Vatican? Make you so?

Speaker 1 (43:49):
And they're performing a song about their parents who passed
away and there's no curses on this song. And I'm like,
I'm like, they got the but de listen like they
doing the super Bowl. I'm like, you know, I want

(44:10):
to see j do the super Bowl just as to say,
everybody kiss my ass, like because he could have been
signed himself up to do it.

Speaker 9 (44:20):
About first you got enough other people?

Speaker 1 (44:27):
Bring me out? I would you want Ushige the record
with you? Every jay Z is nice because it's like, yo,
you know what they could go do it. It's like
and he knows that he's gonna kill it, like now,
I'm gonna be honest. I think that Brooklyn died of him.
He got tired of people talking about this guy should

(44:48):
have been on this stage and this guy, and he's like, listen,
I've run this ship, and now show y'all I run
this like. I think he got biggered to. They say
it was called big eared. Yeah, the bigger him too much.
And I think he said, Okay, I'm gonna show you
how the crocodile bikes back. You know what I mean,
because the pigeon is Chris pickering on the crocodile on

(45:10):
the crocodile. And it's like, hey man, because that's what
rappers ship, like, we gotta do.

Speaker 2 (45:18):
We gotta do rapper ship.

Speaker 1 (45:20):
Yeah, that's why you know our show it's about giving
people they flowers but they can smell them, do us
where they can tell them it drinks while they can
drink them, and they they smoke while they could smoke them.
You know, we want to get you.

Speaker 10 (45:32):
Oh I got about the sack ship.

Speaker 1 (45:45):
Oh yeah, you he knows this, know that's right, No
doubt is better than the Grammy because this bro so
buck what what was what was your most unexpected, unexpected production,

(46:06):
like someone called and wanted to work with you, and
you like, get the fuck out of here. I got
a lot of calls like that, okay, And Okay, that's
a hard question. Okay, you know because everybody, everybody, like
in my time, like everybody was reaching out and it's like,
yo didn't know and YA was partying and all like

(46:27):
having took the stones out, like everybody was calling, and
you know, I was just, oh, you know, that's that
nobody stands out and protect like who you were, Like,
damn anybody you were nervous for the I would say
probably Faith because it's like I was, I was doing
R and B music, but it's like that's that's that's

(46:50):
that's the record that I love you, that that was
that ship.

Speaker 2 (46:55):
You know what I'm saying. Because j Loo wrote it?

Speaker 1 (47:01):
What really come on? Man? You listen.

Speaker 2 (47:07):
She wrote a part of it.

Speaker 1 (47:12):
I mean, like I think the hook like she wrote
and it's like a couple of lines but a minimum
like five percent on ten percent like she wrote. But
she was in a studio with the face didn't write
the song like Faith's just like yo, you know what,

(47:33):
I'll take it. That's crazy and you know, it's like, well,
I love you, I love you. I mean forget he did.
His discography is crazy. DJ know, it's crazy, crazy discography, Bro,

(48:02):
that's crazy. What about the big records though, and you
record those a bad boy? Right? Bad boy? That is
everybody everybody who was a big artist are recorded with them,
except for fifty. Like fifty went off like you know,
with Mike Tyson, like Tyson House, like he recorded over there,

(48:26):
and it's like they was like, oh, you know, yo,
this fifty record is crazy, and it's like, you know,
I don't need them. It's like when in the nineties
and two thousands, it's like if it ain't ringing like
a single, I'd be like, yo, you know what, this
ain't it right, But the streams and shit, you know,

(48:47):
they show they show like yo, this is this is
people's favorite record, you know, and that's crazy, right? All right?
What about making a biggie records?

Speaker 2 (48:58):
Oh well, biggie, what joints you did it?

Speaker 1 (49:02):
Big? I got a story to tell. I kicked clothes
for you. Yeah, that was that. It be he born
in another beat like I had about seven and eight
beats and he was like, oh, you know now you're
doing shit. I like, and this was right before he died.
But when he said, oh, you know, I got a song,

(49:24):
it's like, you know, I was like, okay, cool, It's
like this is the song that the.

Speaker 2 (49:28):
Locks want, and you know, the story to tell was
for the locks.

Speaker 1 (49:33):
No, it was another beat, but it's like this, this
was for the Locks. And when I got it, like, oh, ship,
you know I was I was bugging. I was like, yo,
you know what Yo? He just one verse and you know,
people was like, oh, you know, just the hottest ship.
Foxy said that ship. And I was like, Yo, this

(49:56):
is this is cool. You know what I'm saying. You
didn't realize. You didn't realize it was it was hard,
and you didn't realize he was talking about Anthony Mason.
Yeah I don't know, yeah allegedly. You know that was crazy.
While it is being done, man, it's like I've done

(50:18):
so many records, it's like yo, and you could attest
to this like records fold over and it's like, oh,
you know this is that. It's like this is out
the windows, like this is on on to the next
and that's what it is, all right, But so when
did you realize that this record is a classic. After

(50:38):
it dropped probably like ninety nine or two thousand, damn.
Like after like after like you know, streaming, it's like
I started seeing everything come to fruition. It's like you
to realize it was a classic, like yeah, because it's
like we was only like we Like for me, I

(51:01):
lived in the Bronx, so it's like I would go
on the porch and I'd be like, yo, you know
counter counter cars is like you know, drop by playing
my ship and I was like, oh, you know, and
every like the streatment is like yo, everything came at once.
You know, that's crazy. So you knew WOA was out

(51:23):
of here because every car was playing whoa when that
shake out, like whoa, it's like I seen it. But
when I seen it, I was in the I forgot this,
I forgot this club. But I've seen hole. It was
like because he's he like he like we gave him

(51:46):
a beat, and it's like, yo, get out of here here. Lenny,
like Lenny as who's the mastermind, Like yo, he he
took all the beats, like you know, he was like,
oh you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna get this
want to get that one and it's like yo, old
us for JA, hold us for bleak or argue with

(52:06):
the bleak, and it's like nobody wanted it, and you
know Rol took it. I don't think nobody would have
did it for him. Always say that, like nobody, nobody
would would have tried to rap too much to do
the world. When you when you got an artist, right,

(52:27):
artist like Jay is like, oh, you know what, I
gotta figure figure out how to conquer the song and
like oh see o C Like you know, all the
rappers you know is the same person. Like you know,
they figure out, like yo, how to address this I'm
saying and that, and that's what it is like. Even Mont,
It's like you know what Simon says, It's like like

(52:50):
the gods is a simple he he could have spit
like hymnautical gases and ship like that. But you know
Simon says as well, no, okay, I wish I did.
Remember what happened with that record they got Yo. When
when he when he my house, He's like, yo, you
know what, I want you to hit his record? He

(53:11):
drove all the way to the Bronx and like I
just I just had done the beat for Woe and
it's like yo. He was like, Yo, tell me, tell
me what you think of this record.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
And I look and I was like, damn.

Speaker 1 (53:26):
Man, it's like he done it. You knew it was fire.
He produced that too. No found that produced record. I
think that might be the only one he did himself,
the only one. Yeah, But that's how the record was huge.

(53:47):
Know when he said he could have said hypnautical gases
on it, he could have games. He's literally he did
the right thing for that artist. It's like he'll he'll
do the right beat for the right artists. And it's like, yo,
you can't spit this on us. And it's like Simon says,

(54:08):
it's like, yo, that's that fit.

Speaker 2 (54:10):
Perfect, that's the record right records.

Speaker 1 (54:14):
Still, I was on tour with Ouur March, which we
need on drink Champs by twelve years ago man, and
he taught me intimitted fast and back then, oh, twelve
years ago. I was like, we came downstairs at the
point it was this is this is this is he

(54:36):
put together like like I'm talking about like slim trim
and I'm like, yo, we're going to get something to eat.
He was like, yeah, I ate yesterday and we just
all laughed at this time. By the way we laughed,
We're like, yo, what the yo yesterday? Like And twelve

(54:59):
years later this ship to make the weight off. I
had read How to Eat to Live already. I laughed
at him, really me laughing at myself, Like I was like,
he showed me the blueprint. I knew better. But but
you know, we all overseas me in Germany and ship.

(55:20):
I was like, I got Chinese mood in Germany.

Speaker 2 (55:23):
I'm I'm going together.

Speaker 1 (55:25):
We did the day before. We went here the day
before and they had duck sauce. We were open. We
didn't realize other people had dunk sauce outside of New
York City, so we were like yo. We were like, yo, yo,
you want to go to the next party? Like nah,
they got stay at the same hotel. They got dunks
over there. Then they got dunk. I just came with us.

(55:45):
It was us, Paul marsh I'm gonna get who else
but honest came with us. But so uh, I'm sorry
this sounds so cliche, and I know we brushed on
it earlier, but did you ever think that hip hop
will actually make it this far? Never? Look, look billionaires
like it was something for motherfucker to make think about

(56:08):
what Jay was saying, eighty million, like I'm raping jump
Jim till I'm the hundred million men like he was.

Speaker 2 (56:14):
That was the reach.

Speaker 1 (56:15):
We were like, yeah, millions, crazy man's penuts. Yeah, a couple.
He's the most. He's the richest fucking musician. That's crazy.

Speaker 2 (56:29):
So you're talking about.

Speaker 1 (56:30):
Taking this fall to the top of the boller stones. Yeah, yeah,
Like nobody funny the niggas that take act with some
other niggas, Yeah, all them people. I'm stopped saying the
word me and being bleak was being bleak when when
I did Bleak podcast, we were talking about the scenes

(56:50):
and I was just like, I made a post and
I said, I think Beyonce might have surpassed Mike, like
the greatest entertainer ever, Like, man, I got so much.
He got me Mike alone, And Blee was like, nah,
he said, me and Jay had that argument, Jason, now
you bugging, Oh my god, man, I'm you're saying you

(57:14):
gotta relax. That's Mike, And I'm like, but when you
go back, when you look at the consistency though of
Beyonce's career, because I went and did the fucking Mike last.
Michael had like twelve year gaps in between his but
you gotta count Jackson five. But he's right now, got
Destiny Shell too. Yeah yeah, okay.

Speaker 2 (57:37):
Yeah, okay.

Speaker 1 (57:39):
But even though still like Mike had these bits, like
you say, he got three monster albums that make his
career off the wall, and what is it dangerous?

Speaker 2 (57:48):
Even bad?

Speaker 1 (57:48):
You can throw bad in it, right, And this girl
don't stop man like, she's consistent. She doesn't turn to
the cowboy out. That's one thing that she turned the cowboy.
It's one thing that Michael got over. Kind of like everybody,
what's that making niggas faint and ship.

Speaker 2 (58:03):
Niggas be dying?

Speaker 1 (58:04):
And Mike Ship Mike he had all that stretchers in
the front. You never seen nobody else with stretches. He
originated that. But Mike was a crib.

Speaker 2 (58:16):
You've seen that ship. Mike was the crib. Mike was crip.

Speaker 1 (58:19):
Well, dif that was the difference, Like, yeah, we had
DJ Quick sit right here and we're like, because you
know he yeah, he was walking this movie and I'm like, ya,
I gotta ask you he goes because I believe this
is the exact words. He goes them signs he was
throwing up was not blood friendly. It was making Mike.

(58:45):
And there's that rumor that he fought Park. You know,
that rumor gets bigger and bigger, but it's not so
real like that Mike just whipped his ass like was
messing with.

Speaker 7 (58:58):
I think about it.

Speaker 3 (59:01):
Just wonder lady like yeah, talking about.

Speaker 1 (59:09):
Yeahs probing on the like just gonnaup on your phone
so you le seriously, I can believe Michael fight. The
guy told the store. You can't believe it too, because
they said prince and they say he grew up getting
as weapons so they seen the fighting.

Speaker 9 (59:30):
Yeah, your brothers not your parents. You don't learn how
to fight and your brothers and you fight your brothers
faking that's your brother you got you ready to pop
on them?

Speaker 1 (59:45):
Joe funck them up. Joe fun them up. What I'm saying,
Joe funcked them up. But Joe, Joe, you say you'll
put your hands up. No, That's what I'm saying. So
Joe was like the complete ass whooping, and the brothers like, yo,
you know what this just ask what exactly wanted the talent?

(01:00:06):
He whipped them niggas in the shape because the niggas
talented the ship. You the step again, Manna, Like what
lit fucking around even want? Don't do that again? Nah?
They said he would making sure that they practiced. Had
to get up in the middle of the night, like
liter what's the most American idol? Ain't he a Jackson?

(01:00:27):
Not American idol? Randy, He's not a Jackson. No, he's
not a Jackson. Brandy Jackson. When Bizz, you know, following
that fucking Internet, when Biz was sick, somebody posted your
biz rest in peace, this markey, this market and somebody posted, yo,
biz rest in peace, my dumb ass. Wanting to get
likes real quick. Those want to be like I got
the interest that recipe, I don't know. I don't posted

(01:00:49):
a pit to the nigga your resting piece of the beers.
Just Blaze came immediately say yo, just got off the phone.
Bit Biz ain't dad Bro stupid as hell. He's like, Yo,
do what the fun you doing? I was like, that's
the Internet for you. You want to be first. Niggas
want to be first to shit and get that get
that engagement. They like, Oh ship, I got some, I

(01:01:09):
got some like with the Dame dash ship. Look, I
mean niggas is spreading that ship, but.

Speaker 2 (01:01:16):
Revoked ship.

Speaker 1 (01:01:17):
She was up listening to that live you should have called.
That's how I knew it was a little bit of a
cat because he wouldn't have said, I'm like everybody's. He
would have threw me under the table. Listen. I'm expecting it, y'all,
y'all good. I always been good with Dame. I always

(01:01:37):
appreciated Dame. I always had love for Dame. We had,
uh we say exchanged recently stick face Gary and then
me and being Bleak. We all got on the phone.
But what it was was we smoke like men. We
smoke like men. I told him what I didn't like.
He told me what he didn't like. We agreed to
disagree because we did not you know, not me in

(01:02:00):
the in the middle. We met. That's what the problem was.
I mean, that's that's what solution was, and we we
amended ways. And then I admire what he's doing. I
admire him acknowledging bleaks. Yeah, that was the loyalty and
Bleak because you know what it is is we have

(01:02:20):
Bleak on here. And then like we kind of studied
the algorithms of what happened and right now. To me,
I know I'm going to sound crazy, but to me,
like Jim Jones, talking is very important to me, Tony yao,
talking is very very important to me.

Speaker 2 (01:02:39):
Uh, bleak.

Speaker 1 (01:02:42):
To the guy and to me, it's the year of
the man that's saying. Next to the man, it comes
to band this year, you know what I'm saying. So
Bleak is like he's really taking on like Jay's whole monaricure,
like like like like everybody, everybody that's saying something wrong
about Jay. He knows Jay's not coming out of the house,

(01:03:03):
and he knows he has a podcast, so he knows
that he can actually delivered addressed.

Speaker 2 (01:03:10):
I'm saying, this ship came out out today.

Speaker 1 (01:03:15):
So what I'm trying to say is that's so smart
to me, even though I gave him the blueprint and
we gave him the distribution, but that part is like
bringing people into his own world.

Speaker 2 (01:03:26):
That's that's his ship.

Speaker 1 (01:03:26):
He got good personality, man, person funny your funny god, dude.
So what's what's your favorite part of the game. So
I going, is it performing? Yeah, traveling, traveling, seeing different
parts of the world that none of us will probably
see he wasn't rapping. You know what I'm saying, You'll
find yourself in one of the countries. You're like, what
the where the fuck am I interested? He's the only
one that ever sat traveling. That's the funniest part, the

(01:03:49):
funniest part of everyone says they always pay promore in
and performing, excuse me or recording.

Speaker 2 (01:03:57):
I like traveling.

Speaker 1 (01:03:58):
I mean i'd assume performing goes with the traveling. Not really. No, say,
you can perform anywhere, but when you like me, I
like to see him, which I'm not. I want you.
That's why I'm sitting here messed up because now I'm
traveling and I didn't realize how much. And I'm saying
this with a with a grain of salt, and I'm
saying this, I didn't know how much of a slave

(01:04:19):
I was. I would never enjoy these towns.

Speaker 2 (01:04:21):
I would go there, perform.

Speaker 1 (01:04:23):
Do the version of the Breakfast Club, do that version
of funk Flex, do they version of DJ And you
know I know it. See the spot, I'm like, I
see the part of Croatia and I was like, Croatia
is nice, Like I've been to the foul water. I
was like, wait a minute, like because and I was

(01:04:43):
just there to work. So now that I'm traveling again
and seeing the world, I appreciate it so I don't
have to rush the soundtrack. I don't have to you know.
Take a page from jay z book where it's like
the reason why he flew like like was talking about
like yo he took he like he takes fucking days

(01:05:05):
where it's like they take days to reach theate destination.
Jay Z beat there in the day, yeah you know,
but it's like, yo, he soak up a lot of culture.
He said, I'm flying over believe yeah, man, but that

(01:05:30):
that traveling, yeah, to see in the world. Man, you know,
not listen to me. I've never heard that. And when
you just said that, I realized that's that was mine.
It's because like right now, like I just went to
Paris and I went there to run, but I was
I was traveling and so many people are like y'all
got to back for you, got a back for you,
And I was just like I don't want to go

(01:05:51):
to but I was thought about. I was like I
reached my destination already. I'm here. I traveled here, like
I actually don't we care about going in the club,
and these guys don't have the order and all this
ship like, guys, they don't have the I know everywhere,
I know everywhere, like I.

Speaker 2 (01:06:12):
Know eighty five for yah.

Speaker 7 (01:06:13):
Yeah, yeah, people, we want we want.

Speaker 1 (01:06:24):
Ziro when you get with this. Herot's you know what
I'm saying, we want that guy. That's hilarious, he said, Yeah,
I'm not just take ship whatever. Man.

Speaker 3 (01:06:36):
All right, guys, we're gonna do quick time with slime.
Oh really, this is the drinking game. Drink water, you
can zip it.

Speaker 1 (01:06:45):
I'm drinking.

Speaker 3 (01:06:46):
We'll give you two choices. Look, but we're gonna give
you two choices. Pick one and we're not drinking. Say
both are neither and were drinking. But just give us
some stories, and you know, we just want to bring
up people in places. All right, park are easy.

Speaker 1 (01:07:07):
That's a hard easy.

Speaker 2 (01:07:10):
He's the godfather, Yes he is.

Speaker 1 (01:07:13):
Like yo, he's he started the ship. It's true, he
started start. What are you starting to think of the tree?
The tree going? Let me just tell you how ill
easy is. I know, no, even that tree reaches pop
for sure. I've been listening to this album. I never
really caught it easy, he said on his ship. He said,

(01:07:35):
ice Cube right the rhymes that I say, crazy Holy
Ship interview ice Cube, and I asked, And then if
you look at the credits, I don't think ice Cube
name is on there right around and it's Easy credited
for Jerry hell Ship, Jerry heller Ship, go off what

(01:07:59):
you want saying? Said Easy Easy? Yeah, wow yo, because
he like Easy is the god. Like you know what
I'm saying. It's like Park is like a worker, like
he like he like he commanded, like you know, he
taught us, you know what I'm saying, Like he he
wrote like he ain't right, but it's like he commanded, like,

(01:08:20):
oh you know, write the song. It's like you know,
and that's said, like yo, you know he was a dude.
And what's crazy is I believed Easy more than all
of them, not even knowing that someone was. I guess
his delivery was like you could tell, like it's intense,
you could tell it came from him, and I feel

(01:08:41):
would say Easy. Yeah. I don't know, man, I think
because once once they left Easy, he went and signed
on Bone Thugs and Home Andy. So he kept his
career the business part of it, but his music after that,
after that record was seven killed with this record. The

(01:09:03):
people kind of you know what this record when he
went to the White House and all I'm like, what
fuck is this nigga? But I'm like, first thing gonna
go to the White House, first thing gonna do, like
almost everything is he let it from the f B.
I did the first ones to get the rested on stage. Yeah,

(01:09:25):
now that was that was Gusta Oh, which was mimicking
in It's Crazy. Chris Rock was disrespectful for that, Yeah,
blating with it to m Gusta Crazy before It's Crazy.
That's my one of my favorite movies, bro, because it

(01:09:46):
makes more sense now it is. Yeah, when you when you.

Speaker 3 (01:09:50):
When hindsight, the recipes are pocketing easy by the way,
Diamond d or Lord Finess.

Speaker 2 (01:09:55):
Oh that's the one, Yo, that's a hard one though.

Speaker 1 (01:09:59):
Is a producer, however, you know I'm saying it's a producer.
This is what advertaria you feel your mind is a producer,
Lord Finess, get out of here over Diamond D Yo too.
But with Diamonds Yo, he'spen ticulous with beats and Yo

(01:10:22):
they come out crazy and Diamond is like yoikulous with
songs like he made dope songs, So for songs is
a rapper, it's Diamond. What I would have never guessed
that because it's like, yo, Diamond, Diamonds are better rapping thawfulness, Yeah,
because that's what. But like yo artist, like the person

(01:10:45):
who's fits and stage show like Diamond d is flawless.
You know, Diamond has first album class what I'm saying,
and finesse the beats. Fucking I would have reverse that, Yo,
U not not so suicidal thoughts the doctor dre beat,

(01:11:09):
you know, and it's it's it's on and on and
it's like you don't know where. It's like you know
he's gonna end up, but it's like he like they
both don't.

Speaker 2 (01:11:19):
But it's like Vanessa, is.

Speaker 1 (01:11:20):
That dude just like he got an extra he got
an extra with like you know, it's it's you know, you.

Speaker 3 (01:11:29):
Know, we got to respect him because most people will
said easily or not.

Speaker 1 (01:11:34):
He possibly don't knows better.

Speaker 2 (01:11:40):
But I would have never seen.

Speaker 1 (01:11:43):
A person put together syllables and punchlines like the way
Lord for that, Lord for that can start like the
first ball and then he first ball makes sense ball.
He's dope. But Diamond is the rapper, the rappers, rapper,
he thanks to songs, and you know, I think he's

(01:12:04):
a producer, but it's like he's the rapper rapper. He's like, yo,
you know what he's doping doing BC. He's like he
can make like classics, you know, that's that ship and
it's like, you know, a bunch of other song like
more anthem, you know. But it's like Finessa's like yo,
you know what he like. He he puts those hits together,
you know, and it's like he'll be like, yo, you

(01:12:25):
know what, Diamond like I would did this this way?
It's like I would is this this way? Nobody better act?
I would have definitely thought, yeah, we would have said,
Vanessa's an MC. That's that's interesting. Vanessa's a producers like yo,
people sleep on finess Like that's the only persons like yo.

(01:12:48):
He hit everything that I don't think. I don't think
people sleep on for nes. I think that he's a
sleep as a producer. I think okay as a producer,
but I don't think people doc I would think that
his skills as an m C is so much at
the forefront. A lot of.

Speaker 11 (01:13:01):
People time you don't remember or they forget, forget people
don't know where it's like yo, if MC skills and
producer skills like yo, I would go with with the
producer first, because it's like, yo, he makes those hit
records and you know like when Channel ten, it's like yo,

(01:13:24):
he bodied that, and it's like yo, I'll be like Yo,
how the fuck he did that?

Speaker 1 (01:13:28):
Ship? You know? And that's that all right? Big yell
or biggie, both of you answers I'm drinking and that
I'm drinking. I'm a big, huge, bigl fan. Too big
because of the bars, right, and Biggie because of the

(01:13:49):
hit records. No, I'm saying because like he'll he'll make
you dance, He'll make he'll make it big, yeah big,
you know that. That's that's his key. You know what
I'm saying. He'll make the hot album be like yo,
you know what. I'm listening to this from one to
But he also had Diddy Man like did he one

(01:14:10):
thing about did he he made everybody sound? No? No, no,
no no no? Did he did? He would like pick
the beat, you know what I'm saying. The song it's like, oh,
you know that's dope. We're gonna run with this ship.
But it's after every everybody done the whole the whole album.

(01:14:32):
But it's like he gets credibly like, oh, you know,
did he did the album? You know, he't do the album?
He picked he picked a single, you know. But the
person who's like yo being in Bad Boy, like sometimes
like Yo, they'll let whoever be like YO, do your song.

(01:14:53):
Oh you know, I'm gonna pick the single. Oh yeah.
That's when when when Rob picked, when did he picked
all Joy? He's like, yo, oh we're ready to go,
ready to go, you know, the video and all, and
it's like that's that's all. But you think about it.
Look at every artist is after they stopped fucking with Diddy,
how their music R and B as well, total one twelve,

(01:15:16):
all these groups he had faith, you name him. None
of them was able to none, None of them was
able to maintain listen, None of them was able to
maintain the level of quality music after they left Diddy,
not one, not one individual. And who was they working with?
The hitman dependent Like if you don't, you're gonna you're

(01:15:37):
gonna find where the heat is at. It's like people
when they left Bad Boy, they left you know all together.
It's like they they wasn't fucking with nobody, and it's like,
that's what it is. It's like when you when you
when you can do the hits, man, it's like the
main leave bad Boy and retired nigga. They still right,

(01:15:59):
he wasn't landing. But when you, like as I said,
when you work, and it's a difference. It's like no,
we nor were working with Prell and not we working
with you know, Buck Waller, E's a l P Forrell
is going to give him that you know what I'm saying.
It's like he's gonna give him the memorable joints and
you know, like will give him an album. Cousin's like, oh,

(01:16:21):
you know you told niggas how to rhym on Neptun.

Speaker 7 (01:16:26):
Niggas ain't don't even think.

Speaker 1 (01:16:33):
When we when we did, not we? When you did?
What what that shows? It's like, Yo, you got the
chorus already. Story how that hook came up as funny
and that I was counting count like that's the hook.
This is the profession of a producer, like a non producer,

(01:16:54):
like he'll he'll he'll correct your mistakes and he'll bring
it out of you. And that's what it is. It's
like they didn't have that ran after. They didn't want
the best an rs have a lived. You got to
think even before Bad Boy, this nigme was doing Joey.

Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
These were some countries I understand, but they like, I'll
do you.

Speaker 1 (01:17:16):
Even before bad Boy, you gotta stand and he did,
Mary J. Blige, Jo Father m C.

Speaker 2 (01:17:22):
He was showing these.

Speaker 1 (01:17:22):
Motherfuckers really how to dress, what kind of records to do,
like did He's you can't take nothing away from Paul
MC is still touring too right now, ye biking them
up like.

Speaker 2 (01:17:34):
When I'm there, and it's like it was like a fake.

Speaker 1 (01:17:38):
Big Daddy came to me. I never he came up
first though he didn't. He came from Yo. These people,
I don't know. I think so King was first. Let's
let's look at look it up. Kane was first. Came
King had to be first. Believe King. I believe so.
I'm like Big Daddy, Father m C, like Nola Town

(01:17:59):
like that. Nigga's trying to be kne when I've first
seen his first video. Oh I don't fuck with this.
I'm sure it's close. Huh damn, what are you typing? Bro?

time following just rapping with Biers and all that, that

For the studio for them things.

Speaker 1 (01:18:49):
If if we got to, if we gotta go through
the two thousand, in the three thousand, I will go
to the two thousand. Okay, So me, who.

Speaker 2 (01:18:59):
Would you what would you prefer those?

Speaker 3 (01:19:01):
I mean, I'm not a producer like that, but you
know how to use both machines, right, not at all?

Speaker 2 (01:19:07):
Let me ask you buck, producer or beat maker?

Speaker 1 (01:19:15):
Me? Period? Yeah? What do you prefer? Producer? What's the
difference between a producer and the beat maker? He just made?
Like a beat maker just makes beats and think and run.
But a producer, like yo, he'll he'll sit there and
it's like he'll craft it, like when we do CNN.
I learned producing like yo, you know what? I learned

(01:19:35):
how to cultivate be like yo, you know what just
how the song re orchestrated, and that's what it is.

Speaker 2 (01:19:42):
Producer is like.

Speaker 3 (01:19:43):
Like a producer doesn't even have to be the one
that makes.

Speaker 1 (01:19:45):
The beat in some instances, yeah okay. And he could
tell be like, oh, you know you played us, you
play this because it's funny. Well yeah, yeah, get this
album with songs.

Speaker 2 (01:19:56):
And I hate you know.

Speaker 1 (01:19:58):
I don't think I'm the best rabbit, but I'm think
I'm a pretty good rapper.

Speaker 2 (01:20:01):
And he would be like, nah, that ain't it.

Speaker 1 (01:20:03):
Do that? Do that over and I'm like the overall worse,
the bars, everything worse, and I'm like, son, this is fired.
He like, trust me, I know your potential. I know
you could do better. And a lot of producers just
gonna give you the beat and let you do what
as the fuck you want and then never you have
to hear from the motherfucker again. And he was like, nah,
you gotta eat. I know your potential. I know that

(01:20:25):
that it ain't it, ain't it. And I would love
me in the studio every single time. Every single time
he told me that, I went back and I went
back and changed whatever he told me. He was mad.
Sometimes I thought my words was better I'm like, I
had it. That shit was perfect, and he's like, nah,
trust me and the songs we've done, it's like, you
know this got me.

Speaker 2 (01:20:46):
Doing Ship four five. I'm like, I'm not doing this, sire.

Speaker 1 (01:20:53):
I think that's missing though right now, that people don't
hear about the creativity no more. I don't want to
say maybe eighties nineties that producer era. The producer was
nineties and two thousands, the biggest ego in the room
at that time, saying this is how it has to
be done and getting the best out of the NBC
as the artist.

Speaker 3 (01:21:13):
So you know, we we we kind of imagine now.

Speaker 1 (01:21:16):
The producer is quite scared of these artists now, like he's.

Speaker 2 (01:21:19):
I'm gonna they don't give a ship like.

Speaker 1 (01:21:21):
Scared of I'm just giving the bag marking out. You know,
hold on, let me ask you just blaze, oh buck
whow oh ship, Just blaze saying that, I said, for some.

Speaker 2 (01:21:37):
That's crazy, that's fun.

Speaker 1 (01:21:40):
You gotta say both. Let's take a drink. Yeah, say
I'm gonna say both. Just blaze, man, he answered honestly
with his crewmates. You know what it is now, what
it is about justice? Justice, just a freaking nature though,
like just Blaze is MIDI compatible. Nigga's like a machine.

(01:22:02):
He's not human in a sense like this nigga just
I think he's like a robot and ship. So it's
kind of not fair to compare that nigga to nobody
because but the same time, like the soul that Buck
puts in his music, Like I did a whole album
with Justin. Buck did one song album and that was
my favorite song. So it's kind of hard to really
And I'm like, because his music got a lot of

(01:22:24):
soul in it, like when he dig like he did
like and he chopped it up. Not to say just
music don't because you listen to Blueprint and all that
sh he does. He's a soulful guy. But he could
do it without the vocal samples. Like a lot of
times people need them vocal samples to bring to make
it sound soulful.

Speaker 2 (01:22:39):
They speed him up or they slow them down.

Speaker 1 (01:22:41):
He doesn't just the sound beat, you know what I'm
saying to make you feel like, oh this ship ship
hit me here. But I think that's the hardest step
was the album bro, I fucked up? You do a
certain part you know well, because it's like all here
just shp and be like, oh man, it's crazy. And
he'll probably hear some ship and be like, yo, you

(01:23:04):
inspired me. And it's like the inspiration is like from
you know, from that you know, and that's that's it. Yeah,
well just so you know, you inspire a lot of people.

Speaker 2 (01:23:14):
Absolutely, he's been spotting.

Speaker 1 (01:23:20):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (01:23:20):
That's right next, don't kill me.

Speaker 1 (01:23:22):
Just red alert Capri, Right alert, right alert, That's that's
that's I love Capri, but right alert Capri. He just
liked being different. He wasn't the I C C JAB.
I feel like he was those of the crew, like

(01:23:45):
Ki Capri is like yo, he like he had a
party rocking.

Speaker 2 (01:23:48):
Yeah, no listen Capri, no, no doubt.

Speaker 1 (01:23:53):
But it's like red alert. It's like alert or the radio.
You gonna be on the radio.

Speaker 2 (01:24:00):
But let me just tell you something.

Speaker 1 (01:24:02):
I'll be I'll be in certain towns and Kicking will
be DJing.

Speaker 2 (01:24:05):
I won't even text him.

Speaker 1 (01:24:07):
I'll just go in and just have a great fucking time,
like like, and I'll be sitting there like he can
rock any crowd. Can I tell you? Kicking pre can
rock any crowd, any crowd. And I'm not saying I
read Alert, because I'm not. I know that's like a cravison.
I'm not saying read alert. Can't I just say I
have been to witness it. I've been in from from
you know, a trinidaddy and party to a Haitian party,

(01:24:29):
to a Jamaican party to a straight up R and
B party to a rap party, and Kicking Prix does
them all the same way he destroyed. I was thinking
all also thinking about the impact they had in the coature,
right because Red Alert put us on radio. Niggas just
stay up in late at night to listen, and without

(01:24:50):
Read Alert, we wouldn't have Kicking Prex on Mario exactly. Comedy, Yeah,
said Mark. I meant, I meant comedy jah the whole book.
That's his verse on Wren. That's kpri Now.

Speaker 2 (01:25:06):
Somebody said that wasn't him.

Speaker 1 (01:25:07):
Who who he's sued for it? Somebody said the original
one was and then they sue the cole and one
of them nigga said it was him. That's it. Yeah,
said yeah, I believe it's on last said he did it.

Speaker 12 (01:25:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:25:23):
But what I was talking about, when I stay right alert,
you gotta understand, like, well, yeah, the whole Boogie dam Productions,
Fucking Boy Ship Vio, bringing in Baby Jump and bring
the whole brother everybody came through. I dig that, but
like is the party guy and the mixed guy, Like
a person's talent is noted where it's like in a party.

Speaker 2 (01:25:46):
So you DJ, you want to rock the party.

Speaker 1 (01:25:49):
Not the radio. Some dudes on even some dudes on radio,
even on the radio, like Yo, Kick Capri is a
monster on the radio. He plays Ship like the album cuts.
It's like he'll he'll do something else like Yo, He's
he's crazy at the age Dessert Nigga would personally, I'll

(01:26:11):
be honest, sweet again you know alres my o G.
But at one point it was this biggie had this
this song called machine Gun Funk. Before that came out,
that was it was a wee spot called Three Wives Men,
and we used to get there, used to get the
bootle Funk. We used to get the machine Gun Funk,
and we used to get there and we used to

(01:26:32):
get a kicking pre tape and us coming from Queens
buying a kicking pre tape, we felt like that was
our outfit. That's how much Kicking pre tape met back
then like dress, I had to have a new kicking
to normal. I had to have a new kicking bretape,

(01:26:52):
I sweeter. I had to go up Queen you talking
about around mixed every Ca Capre tape and it's like
completely I had. I had a Ca Capri dynasty like
whatever you call a collection where like crazy, like every

(01:27:13):
tape like I would walking and be like, yo, what's new,
and it's like they pull on. Did you wait up
late at night and taking press record and wait for
red alert? Yeah, you got met the cushion in your
team and make sure that's it, and then wake up
to see what you caught. The grades whom he was broken,
who made a little bit more money, that's exactly like

(01:27:41):
all night like this, that's enough because we had enough
on her. He was talking about the poorestakes, But I
didn't you want to charm in and be like I thought,
because the way he described it was as if it
was only DJs who did that. Everybody, Well, the thing
is making real posit mistakes. We would have two double
deckers and you would manipulate the ship. You know what's crazy.
One of my first, one of my very first top

(01:28:01):
ten songs because I see he'd be getting slacked lately,
is my guy Kwaime?

Speaker 12 (01:28:07):
Like like.

Speaker 1 (01:28:10):
I didn't know that. I don't know he was ready
to get what is it? Because I see him explaining
himself on sway like okay, big did this you life
has played out? Caught me able to But look at
all the other lines in the pop that was bigging
you up like like a man.

Speaker 13 (01:28:28):
Yeah, Like I remember saying he's dope man, because like
even with the big thing, like he just shrunk that
off with get along with it.

Speaker 1 (01:28:39):
Yeah, it is dope, is amazing, Like I wanted to
come through man. I was like, that's this ship is impressive.
Make you become a fan again like Kame was always fine.

Speaker 2 (01:28:53):
They looked the same too.

Speaker 1 (01:28:54):
Hey look sir yea he got the Poka Doon ship
to rocking at it again? Where the mommy, like you
gotta ship back. I would have ran with that ship
to like that it's my ship. Ain't take that clock off.
Lave got the clock. I got the dots, nigga funk

(01:29:14):
back words O C or a G ding. That's for
you brother s, you like putt niggas on the spot,
by the way, we need O C and show business.

(01:29:35):
A g on here, facts, facts, come get your dope,
dope m cs bro Frank White, Anino Brown.

Speaker 2 (01:29:45):
I gotta go with Nino.

Speaker 1 (01:29:47):
Yep, even though you're at it, It's okay. He's he's
a good snitch. In the way you did that. Nigga said,
I ain't going down with myself. He said that pretty
mother good class. Yeah, right there on the stage right.
Frank White is real and Nino browns faith. But Frank

(01:30:10):
White is real. I think Leo Brown, Nina Brown is
Frank Money Vaughan's Nino Brown is supposed to Nick. You know.
It was a mix up from Detroit Brown. They they
made it. They it's like Star Phase. They said that
after they indicted Frank White, you know from Blue Magic. No,
that's that's Frank Yeah, because he missed that movie. But

(01:30:44):
you know Whatino Brown man, Nino, Nino was a ruthless motherfuckers.
Cancel that bitch, Cancel that Fino. Don't give a fuck. Alright, WHOA,
I got a story to tell. Oh, take a drink,
they can drink a little drunkigg eaty one, I got

(01:31:10):
a job. Get a niggas eat one all right, Analog
or digital, both the analog.

Speaker 2 (01:31:17):
Analog and digital.

Speaker 1 (01:31:18):
I'm going digital sound sound wise and analog with all
that carrying. The motherfucking I'm carrying them too for them reals.
It sounds like you confuse. Take a drink, sir, I'll
take a ship. You said both. You said analog because
it is you look at analog digital ship with all
that carrying, all that ship. You love analog because you

(01:31:42):
We couldn't do a song together back then unless we
was in the studio together. So you got to smell
my izzy mi JACKI. You know what I'm saying. I
got to smell you Jake it you eating. You know
what I'm saying. You got to smell my teacher on
it for your colden West. If you want to punch
you punching nigga and the taste watch they got to

(01:32:03):
rewind it. Watch you. I really think I knew how
to not punch in because of that, because excuse me,
I know I know how to flow all the way
through because I hated punching it like you have to.
The engineer will literally have to say you sure you
want these eight bars? Yes, I want these eight balls.
You're going to add the other eight bars. They would

(01:32:24):
have to take it, to take, to take, lose your
moment to you don't right right right, and now like
oh you know, just copy and paste this ship, you know. Yeah,
not to wate studio Digital made anybody be able to
do it too. That's kind of we made it whack too,
like anybody got pro tools and were like the middle

(01:32:46):
ground when we had that tape, me after somebody real quick.
Because of our first studio let mean excuse me, my
first album, he taught us not to waste studio time,
like so who tragedy tragedy every time my rhymes wrote everything,
I knew exactly what I was doing. I never wasted time,
like if I had eight hours, I used old studio.

(01:33:12):
That's what was the thing. It's like, you know, studio
was so expensive. It's like, oh you know what, I
can't waste time, you know, And that's it. That's that's it.
Studio was the original gatekeeper. You had to really want
to be in this stiff because you had to invest
everybody if you ain't. Yeah, but it's like everybody was like, oh,
you know, dudes, be like, oh, you know, I did
ten songs to day in the studio.

Speaker 2 (01:33:34):
Two songs. That's all like the.

Speaker 1 (01:33:37):
Real, the real be like, yo, you know what hold
only only holding two? And it's like if you got
to buy another reel, that's what.

Speaker 7 (01:33:48):
You like.

Speaker 1 (01:33:50):
Until I moved to Florida, I swear to god, I'm
not playing around. Until I moved to Florida, I didn't
know people didn't record five records at night. Like I
was like, I would not go to the studio. Let's
I record? Yeah, I mean obviously, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's
what I'm saying. Because once it went from analog, and

(01:34:10):
I already have my ROMs, and when it was digital,
I was making was already. I was like, so until
I got out here, I seen somebody like, excuse me,
not got out here because I wasn't living out here
at the time. Until I got to the it wasn't
even the head factory because the criteria criteria. And I
would see your motherfucker make a record and go outside
and smoke a cigarette, and I was like, oh, you
don't go back in, you do? You just make the

(01:34:32):
record and you're cool. And I'm like, oh, I'm you know,
that's crazy, and I'm gonna come out here and play
some five songs in the night. When it's like we
was ah fact for me to do.

Speaker 2 (01:34:45):
That analog on analog. Okay, he's a beast, Yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:34:50):
Just running through it. They don't put up another beat man. Yeah,
I imagine was doing that too. The same had to
be knocking out more knocking him A had had Pop
I'm about coming home from jail Pop had two studios
like yeah and another SSL. While you're doing the beat

(01:35:14):
in hand, you know, I'm gonna do the vocals and
when you finish the beat, I'm gonna jump in hand
And it's like, that's what podcast. You know what I
heard about Tupac which made it interesting. They said once
he was done with a song, he wouldn't listen back
like film, he ain't gonna live at that from him.

Speaker 2 (01:35:30):
That's great.

Speaker 1 (01:35:30):
That's a good idea. You can get listen to the
same song for man because you know why we're on
the first fan. Yeah, you're right, like you would never
grow out of being your own first fan, right like
everyone everyone thinks that this. No, it starts with you,
your confidence. It starts with you when you're listening into
your beat. So if you sit there and you just

(01:35:51):
keep listening, you'll listen to that ship all day. Like
I don't if I think a record about a fucking
lighter right now, I'm like that, Just keep listening because
I love you know what I'm saying. But it's like
even instrumental, like we do that ship too, like no shame.
People probably be like, oh, big up not seeing my
ship while like twenty times in a row, and you know,

(01:36:14):
when you're done it, it's like, yo, I want to y'all,
I need to give these records back. You know. It's funny.
These young kids, they I don't even think they sit on.
I think as soon as it's done, they put it.
They mix. They don't.

Speaker 4 (01:36:28):
Clean version.

Speaker 1 (01:36:28):
I mean you can put it through NB. A young
boy got like seventy five albums. I think, like like
the young Nick Russell was like on my eighty six LP.
They don't have experience, say, I don't think they have
experience teaching where it's like to meticulous, like meticulously like

(01:36:49):
you know, to judge, and it's like the judging is
like that's the part where it's like, nah, you know,
I could do that better, and it's like yo, you know,
oh you know, yo, I laid this verse next song.
It's like that's how they figure, you know, you need
to be.

Speaker 3 (01:37:04):
Plus the streaming era. It's like it's a numbers game.
They're just not play the numbers. The algorithm I'm throwing
keep throwing out. But it's unfortunate enough. It's unfortunate like
it waters a lot of it is. It's a lot
of garbage.

Speaker 2 (01:37:17):
It makes it so much because they keep doing the
same ship over and over.

Speaker 1 (01:37:21):
You can't be that good the way you could turn
out fifty five albums all be hot. Nobody look at
the music industry like it's like it's like going to
Costcos now right, Like you go to Costcos you just
want to plant, but you end up but you get
off it peanuts, clothes, watermelons, TV battery Okay, like hands

(01:37:51):
turning that bitch. You can't hit for a plant. It
was fucked up about that plant. The plant is all
the way in the backs. So to get to to
get to the plant, which you just came there for,
you got to pass to a whole bunch of bullshit
ship that you don't want, but you timpted because it's
one thing that like, all right, that's just y'all, Like
something like a cold, cold car that holds your phone

(01:38:16):
like and you're like, okay, this is I want to
watch super Bowl like and then you wind up. But
that's what the music industry is. Like. It's like sometimes
you just want to go and just get like like
like my mom my ship downloaded the other day and
I wanted to hear shot, right, so I go on,
I pressed ask Oh my god, that's like I didn't

(01:38:39):
even allow me to press as a like they were
just like yo, like, So that's what That's what the
music industry is. There's still great products out there, it's
just all in one. It's oversaturated. Man, it's just one warehouse.

(01:39:00):
You gotta know what they get there. When I'm getting
like that. It almost like cable TV. Remember cable TV
had like sixty channels because we hold niggas.

Speaker 2 (01:39:07):
Remember the eight channel when we were growing.

Speaker 1 (01:39:09):
Up, they had to play the boy channel. I'm gonna
play boy. That was called soft horn right, No, no,
that was the real thing. He was doing it right.
Benny Hill, Remember Benny Hill? Yeah, man, man, yeah, let
me tell you something.

Speaker 2 (01:39:29):
No, let me tell you something.

Speaker 1 (01:39:32):
Can Benny Hill exists? No way, he would not exist,
None of them niggas could exist. Martin Downy Yeah wow,
chie Bunker Bunker was raised, said he's some miles today.
When they pleaded looking woke, yeah, he said. He said
to the lady, he said, so, who does all the

(01:39:54):
cookies in your house? She says, my husband does. He goes,
are you worried about that? Like people will find out?
And then she goes, she goes, what that that I'm
a lazy wife. He goes, no that, I'm like, yo.

(01:40:20):
It just was Ralph Cran, the famed nigga too, Ralph
crand that used to be like Alice one year to
his wife, You're not gonna he was domestic bobu. He
was a domestic violence like I was about it and
then and then I ain't gonna lie. And he was Jefferson.

(01:40:40):
He gotta remember that nigga. You gotta remember that was
in Queens, you know, so we're gonna remember George was
on the east side. Yeah, and he left the east side.
East side was still Harlem. Queens was Dame Queens because
the actual Queen came from England and then they visited
there and I believe the King went to and that's
why they called the King's County. Right, So these guys

(01:41:03):
this is now, this is this is how it beats queens.
This is usif Hawking's queens will and they're making your
race back then I'm talking about the Going Hall. It
was like did not like? Yeah, I remember saf and
a sudden yo. And by the way, that that TV
back then, bro, they can bring that back. We a

(01:41:25):
little TV and we are over sensitive now went with
certain ship. But because but like you said, because Ralph
Cranny was threatening to beat his.

Speaker 2 (01:41:32):
Bitch up a night.

Speaker 1 (01:41:32):
He said, Alice, one of these fucking band full straight
to the movie, like, you gotta knock him. You do
that ship. Now you're getting canceled. You found it was
the first Ike Turner. He was Ike Turner like motherfucker.
But he was promoting his ship. I wasn't. I was mistake,
my mistake, man, hold on, we're not doing a quick time.

(01:41:54):
Let's go.

Speaker 3 (01:41:56):
Time was sling eighties and nineties hip hop nineties, nineties, nineties,
Ya book all right? Joe and Jada are Cam and Mace.

Speaker 2 (01:42:05):
Oh that's a good one, man, God, drink, that's just
got drink.

Speaker 1 (01:42:11):
Go ahead, drink you know you.

Speaker 2 (01:42:14):
No, I gotta respond, that's damn. I'm gonna go.

Speaker 1 (01:42:18):
Joe and Jada I like the I like, I love
Cam and Mason's dynamic. But we always seen that because
they did songs together, they were from the same cruise.
We see their personalities, how dope their personalities is to
get right, That's like, that's why I think it works
because they friends, they grow together. Joe and Jada is
like a few different worlds. They worked a lot together too. Really, yeah,

(01:42:41):
I don't really know, because it's like having Cam on
the songs, like he's around, but it's like it's like
we were probably like yo, you know what. Oh you
know Cam is is doing too much or another excuse,
but no, he's right like me being me being in

(01:43:01):
the Bronx is like I spent time in hallm and
it's like we're big ol and it's like I've seen
I've seen the dynamics, what they was, what they could do.

Speaker 2 (01:43:10):
But you know what that got to do with this though, dude?

Speaker 1 (01:43:18):
Yeah, yeah, I think it was making the Harlem reference
about the Yeah, but that was.

Speaker 2 (01:43:26):
I mean to my point, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:43:28):
That's the reason why I would give the edge to
Joe and Jada because their chemistry for them, like you
did some records together, but these dudes was challenge these
guys just and then they play off each other really
well with the cap shipp and here comes they got

(01:43:49):
the flag they throwing the flawers. I knew's personality, I
didn't know how dope Ma's personality is, and I didn't
know how dope their personalities together it works like yeah,
works for Joe and data. Joe Jada Jada is sometimes
like offended by each other.

Speaker 3 (01:44:07):
And I like that.

Speaker 1 (01:44:08):
I like that, Yeah, I like that. I like that
because Jada doesn't co sign and ship like this guy. Yeah, Joe,
I know him his personality and I know Jada's personality,
so obviously like you don't know the personalities like oh
you know, I don't know. I don't know these niggas

(01:46:18):
it could be, you know, take care of our families.
But now we could teach youngs about the coaching, like
what're doing with us? And you know what I mean.
People watch this ship and be seeing off. I don't
learning ship. I ain't know. Like when I watch the
show Seeing Quick and all these stories, I'm like, oh, Ship,

(01:47:37):
gonna go allmatic just the way, just the way that
you know, the feeling I got when I heard both
of them for the first time, it was great. Now
take my life. It's a movie, Like what the no lie? Like,
I don't believe every story about Queen's Bridge, but Queen's
Bridge is like it's like, oh it's made up place.

(01:47:58):
It's a real place, but it's like the stories is
like kind of made up. You know what I'm saying.
What do you mean? Like Memory Lane? It's like, you
know a lot of those stories is like yo, they
not real authentic story. But it's like when you listening
ready to die, he's he's telling you what happens. Yeah,
I would argue you now is doing the same thing.

(01:48:20):
Yeah yeah, And you know what because Biggie mom Biggie
Moms came out and said, I don't know what the
fuck he was talking about, struggling ship one room shack
and likes pre stylish.

Speaker 12 (01:48:34):
Him.

Speaker 1 (01:48:35):
He's the only child. Nigga never wanted for ship. The
nigga want to play in the street on his own,
not that he had to. Yeah, his mom said that
let us say that ship he was creative writing.

Speaker 2 (01:48:46):
Drug Dealer and all that ship. That ship is real.

Speaker 1 (01:48:49):
Well yeah, yeah, you niggas so brad like you nor
we like but let me just say, let me tell
you something let me say something, let me say something.
But Illmatic I was away when Ellmatic dropped, right, and
I had been visiting Queensbridge prior to my incarceration.

Speaker 2 (01:49:07):
Right, I literally saw I didn't hear Illmatic.

Speaker 1 (01:49:13):
I saw it.

Speaker 2 (01:49:15):
Yeah, like when I heard it, like I saw like you.

Speaker 1 (01:49:17):
Know how Donald goings, Donald going to like like you
if you read the book, You're you're in Detroit from
when you when you from.

Speaker 7 (01:49:27):
The NG Like.

Speaker 1 (01:49:30):
Like I came outside. I remember coming outside that yard
like yeah, because we had Buckshot Shorty at the time.
Like a lot of people of Black Moon, A lot
of people think that at first they compared Big Tona's
it wasn't Big to Nas. It was black Moon. At
first that was like and then Big came and right right,

(01:49:52):
it was bigger and then I ended up having too.
It was like it was Biggis because it's like after
that Biggiannas became cool. Remember that's why they said they
were hanging out together. But at first it was it
was black Boom. Biggie was that at that time, Nos
and Big It's like everybody be like, yo, you know what,
ready to die? It's like, oh, you know, ell Maddic

(01:50:14):
and It's like that was a choice with like you know,
listen niggas listen to it in a car. You know
what I'm saying. It's like that was a big thing.
You know, I think what set what set bigger parts
and remixes? Oh hell yeah one more chance pound Yeah yeah,
buff start remixing and records that niggas said the mixtape
joints and Ship came out like the remixes took that

(01:50:37):
to another level where he was going where It's like, yo,
he was he was for the hood, like he had
probably like seven records on the radio besides you know,
one more chants and he like he he had street records. Yeah.
I heard say that the other day, like yo, be
in ill because it's like no no question was like

(01:50:59):
and you could test like yo, people be like oh
nas nas This is like oh nas is cool? Is
crazy because Na's imagination. But Biggie he was like he
was talking about real ship. You know, I think it
Big wouldn't have died. He would have by far, said
himself ahead of a pack of mcs as far as

(01:51:20):
his creativity and big was and what do he died
twenty four, twenty five. Young, Yeah, when you die that
young twenty four. You look at twenty four year old
right now. I wouldn't even fight it twenty four.

Speaker 3 (01:51:33):
That's why it's crazy when we like big they birth
at the age of the It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:51:38):
That y they said it best, like Jay said it best.
Who's the best? See Biggie Jay z and Os And
it's like to this day we argue about that, you know,
ready to die or illmatic? And that was so smarter
Jay to put itself in that conversation. Oh yeah, that

(01:52:02):
he didn't qualify like that was Jesus is marketing, bro.
The genius is like yo. The album he did? You
know that was that was another test like yo, you know,
like reasonable doubt. It's like Yo, it's just as good
and you can't say it's not good. It's amazing, absolutely amazing.

(01:52:25):
You know what was the next album after that? In
my lifetime? Yeah One Wan have some joints on the
I believe by One was better than reasonable. I had
to go back to reasonable Doubt to.

Speaker 2 (01:52:35):
Tell you the truth.

Speaker 1 (01:52:36):
It was really broken without time, I was really broke.
I didn't understand none of that money, none of that money.
I learned all these fashion brands and she wear, I'm like,
is that she had Donna Karen and this and this
and that, and I'm like, these niggas know a lot
about fashion. I had to go back and the coach

(01:52:57):
direction they taught us because it's like be he taught
us like street ship, you know, you know ounces and whatever,
and Nas taught us like different, like different you know key,
like yo, you know street ship, And it's like Jay
taught us like yo, you know the money. So when

(01:53:19):
it's like, oh, you know if you if you get money, nigga,
you like readables out to me to me ill Madica
is the original good kid mad City. Yeah, I could
see that because he was like telling the story like
you said, apposed to all in this pack. From when
I hear almost stories, I can see that compared I've
been on the when I hear all the stories when
people come back block. But NAS is like and another

(01:53:41):
stratosphere and like Biggie like they artist is like they
dope artists. But it's like they like Donald Goings and
it's like Langston Hughes and it's like they are the
cream of the crop. You know, Kendrick is mad cool,
but Kendrick ain't no naws and it's like it's no

(01:54:02):
Biggie and it's like and and I probably say, he'll
probably say the same thing, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:54:09):
He like they was like yes ahead.

Speaker 1 (01:54:11):
It's like where it's like, oh, you know, good kid,
mad City. I don't I don't know if if people
are going to be listening to that and you know
that fire bro.

Speaker 3 (01:54:23):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:54:24):
I could argue that. I think that was crazy. I
think he is. I didn't pretty easily easy.

Speaker 5 (01:54:32):
But today today's Nads and Biggie but not today's Kendrick.
Well no, I'm just saying we're comparing it in that way,
you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:54:42):
But it's like you compare him the Naws and Biggie
and jay Z, but you don't listen less generationally.

Speaker 2 (01:54:51):
A lot of above them.

Speaker 1 (01:54:55):
They put Kendrick above is above like since the second album,
like he like he's yeah, he solidified himself as like yo,
you know what, I don't want to be these thingers,
you know, and and it's like this this is what
it is. It's like he has so much skill where

(01:55:15):
it's like yo, you know what, He's on another level.
It's like he like he could be equal, like oh
you know, Big jay Z and Odds and Kendrick and
it's it's other people. It's like in the same place. Agree, Damn,
I didn't. I just realized there's always a big three.
Right back then it was bigg J, It's Crazy, Hendrick
Draken and Jacole Cole. So we had to give a

(01:55:38):
big three of Now like new artists. Is there anybody
that you would know about Kendrick? No, no, no, no,
that's in the late thirties. Now, that's right, they're not you. Yeah,
they almost forty. So who's the new Who are you that?
And tapped into what's going on? Are you?

Speaker 3 (01:55:59):
I just think there's so many artist is hard to
be too much because this this lane of people, you know,
this lane, this lane, and everybody's got their own time, different.

Speaker 1 (01:56:07):
Lane right right. It's true, Yeah, because you can't because
Playboy CARDI I don't, Like.

Speaker 2 (01:56:13):
I said, I try to listen.

Speaker 1 (01:56:15):
I try to listen to that city because I'm like,
how is he so fucking like all of these this
guy's Yeah, But then I listened to the music and
I was like, he's an old rapper. Who's that Playboy Cardy? Yeah,
Like I know he's been out for a minute, like
ten years. Yeah, yeah, no, Now there's somebody we never

(01:56:36):
heard of, like.

Speaker 2 (01:56:39):
Some kid named Zeddy.

Speaker 1 (01:56:40):
My daughter listening to this kid names that he's she
she swears by him. I said, let me hear, just
so I could know, because I'm going to if they
rapping or if they mumble rapping, like what's what's hot
with the kids? And he rapped. But it's like it's
almost like some new qualmation. But I think we got
to be cool because it's off that drill ship.

Speaker 3 (01:56:58):
It ain't that we gotta be careful with that old
idea of what's hot with the kids, because that's that's
also a problem.

Speaker 1 (01:57:05):
Absolutely, we keep referring to what the youth likes. This
is just what's good because it's whatever they say hot good.
Yeah the point there, yeah, between hot and good, Like
that's the people get and they could be hot and
be trying to be trash.

Speaker 2 (01:57:20):
Yeah, records playing.

Speaker 3 (01:57:21):
And just because a fourteen year old likes it doesn't
mean that I mean it's good. We should be like, oh,
I got accept that automatically, you know, right.

Speaker 2 (01:57:27):
But Rake's has been around what twenty years, sixteen seventeen. Yeah,
so like this three.

Speaker 1 (01:57:34):
Where it's like they've proven success absolutely, you know, yeah,
but the next three is like, who's the next three? Damn,
I don't think that half that track record think there'll
be another three. The industry doesn't even get another EXXL
come on or you don't even know if that that's good?
The freshman the freshman ship right when the person come

(01:57:57):
on the first one, first one, you can't even try.
That's funny. You look at that cover, you look at
who's still around, and you see how everybody maintained their career.

Speaker 2 (01:58:13):
It wasn't always through music.

Speaker 1 (01:58:15):
It was something else, Like boc was on the cover,
Little Boozy Boost, it was Joel Ortiz, myself, who else
was on the Gorilla Zoe Lou Paid Fiasco? So all
these guys. I watched all these guys because they were
my competition in my cop colleagues and time Piers right,
And I'm like, in hindsight, like who went on to

(01:58:37):
do what? Some of them dudes went like this? They
had huge records. Know who else like the rich Richard's
names on that bitch rich rich cover that too, So
I'm like, damn, he just like stopped doing music or whatever,
the fuck him and polo for I don't know what happened,
but then you all have big songs. Stop coming off

(01:58:57):
so triggering me, that's the trigger. Yeah it is. Look
Pat Joel, Crocodile, Young Doe. This was applies me plies Boomy. Yeah,
that's a that's a hell. That's tough. When that was tough,

(01:59:17):
everybody it's great or something.

Speaker 2 (01:59:20):
Everybody on it was great in their own right.

Speaker 1 (01:59:22):
That's why I was like, I felt on and when
they asked me to be on the cover, but I
just be doing the TV ship. I'm like, all right,
I'm gonna find another way to make ends meet when
acting because the answer finish the finished quick time. Yeah,
we're gonna go straight into that, all right. A tribe
called Question Day Try Try not even close. I don't know.

but Trip does some things Day I can't do. And
it's like they all native tones and it's like that's dope.
They compliment each other. Yeah, all right. Ex Clan of

But I'm gonna go to I'm gonna go to the
edge where it's like busting on. Yeah, I'm gonna go
with later even though Charlie Brown, you let me down
because I thought you was gonna be up there with
Bus like he had the person Charlie Brown.

Who's that bron I mean he was a star back then.
He was wasn't he wants the breakout out of leaders
of news originally and then Bus can't bust it's too pold. Yeah,
Bus had too much. Bus came and put your hands

living was for that.

Speaker 2 (02:04:03):

because when when the guy was starring Buck, whow did
you ever have beat for the dude? Buck? While no, okay, alright, cool,
he was cool with him taking your name, he ain't
take it. Yeah, let him use it like you used

(02:17:16):
it like, Yo, you know what it's it's tip hop
doctor dream doctor.

Speaker 2 (02:17:20):
Dream a right, damn, ain't think of that.

Speaker 1 (02:17:24):
Very true. Thank you.

Speaker 2 (02:17:26):
That's good.

Speaker 1 (02:17:27):
Good. The next good observation the last one he said, doctor,
loyalty or respect?

Speaker 2 (02:17:33):
Loyalty.

Speaker 1 (02:17:35):
I don't think you can disrespect some money loyal to.
I think if you loyal to somebody, you're gonna respect him.
I think it comes hand in hand and vice versa.
Com like you could be loyal and still respect me.
And it's like it's like, yo, you know what I was.
I was thinking, since enough show like Yo, that's a

(02:17:55):
hard question because it's like Yo. On one hand, it's
like yo, you know what if you loyal to them,
It's like, yo, you don't disrespect them? Right? And I'm like, yo,
you know what I would be like, Yo, you know what? Right? No? Right?
I just I think loyalty comes is both. Hell yeah,

(02:18:23):
agree with you both. Except the hardest question the answer.
That's when he said, answer, Yo, this is like, this
is real. It's like, Yo, do I do I choose
loyalty or do I respect? You know me? I believe
all they all go hand in hand. But if I

(02:18:45):
had to choose one rather. I know a loyal person
is not disloyal, and I could trust him because you
could trust a person that's loyal, And I don't know
if I trust everybody I respect. That's real. Yeah, you
know that's real. That's trust. Trust is big, big part
of being loyalty. Someone's like, you know your girl loyal,
she can go out. You ain't worry about nothing like

(02:19:07):
ain't nobody could call you and tell you your girl out,
you can't. I know my girl she loyal. She she
she might respect you, I might fight, she might call
you a kind of bitch ass, but disrespect the If
she's loyal, she ain't never gonna vioe loyal me, that's real.
But so she loyal me. She might not be messing
with another guy, but she might be out gambling with

(02:19:28):
her girls. Now, if she breaking the trust while doing that, no,
but if you ask hers she had to tell you,
she didn't. She don't tell you, and that's something you
don't on her doing. And I have got understanding and
she does it, then she's not loyal. She's not loyal
being disloyal. Okay, Well respect that. You think you and
your girl might have a fight she might call you
all kind of names and disrespect the shit out you,

(02:19:48):
but she ain't gonna go fuck a nigga, you know
what I'm saying. So she might disrespect you, she gotta
go then just because of you out. That's it. Yeah,
Like we don't. We don't tolerate cust me out to
go sucking dick any like cuss me the fuck out,

(02:20:13):
no disrespect. But it's like, yo, a person where it's
like yo, you know, like females like it's underne love,
but it's like they respect you to the fullest. And
it's like a female won't want, you know, talk ship
about behind your back. It's like what, like what kind
of business? This is what I'm saying. I'm saying they're

(02:20:36):
good at No. That's no, no, no, because like you
like the dudes argue for real, Like Yo, there's some
good ones out here, and you know you got a system.

Speaker 2 (02:20:49):
You got a system.

Speaker 1 (02:20:53):
That's why he's talking that listen love like something fun up? Yo?
What's wrong with you? And they don't use logic. They
don't care about listen, they don't care about making sense
common sense? Are you like yo? Perfect people like the

(02:21:13):
perfect example of what it is like, yo, I can
trust them. It's like I'll do whatever for them. And
it's like, yo, she she got my back. It's like
you know, and I got out back and it's like, yo,
that's it. Let's talk about the orthoorage. How did that answerage?
How did you say there's a mistaken answerage? Yeah, ship

(02:21:33):
ge robis to call me. He was like, Yo, Mark
Warburg's on the TV show. You want to be on
it or you want to audition for it. But it
was between me and young Jez. Me and Young Jez
was up for that part. And I was like nobody
knew it was going to be a hit show when
it was like, HBO has an idea? What did you want?
Season three? Though two?

Speaker 2 (02:21:54):
Season two okay, he was early.

Speaker 1 (02:21:55):
On was pilot. Yeah. I was the first black person
on outside outside of an extra walking in the back
with lines. I was the first nigga with lines. Then
bow Wow and fifty and on came after that. But
I was I was there to build Turtles character, but
you was actually a character roll. I was there to
build Turtles character because like, we just got this nigger

(02:22:16):
meandering around, right, I need to give him. Yes, it
became my manager ship, which is shout shouting joy far
hour good speak in real life. Yeah, that's my brother
talking to moms, shout to Jakie's kids. Described how this
mistake happened. So because I'm never I wasn't an actor.
I never acted in my life. Okay with that, but

(02:22:38):
you know it wasn't we got to act every day.
But I'm real acting like that, but no, I never.
I had never done that. So I was like, I
was looking at it, like, they're not gonna pick me.
I ain't. No, you went to Nah, had to fly
to Hollywood and meet all these fucking real Hollywood motherfuckers
and they're like, and the one thing I did that
was smart.

Speaker 2 (02:22:58):
I think they had the name.

Speaker 1 (02:22:59):
I was like, if I get the park, can I
use the name Saigon instead of whatever fucking name they
had in the scrip was like a little little g
or whatever. The fun I'm like, won't you let me
use my real rap name? And that's the best move
I ever made in my life. Well I say that,
I mean think about it to this day, Yeah say
I know, but yeah, to this day, when when that

(02:23:20):
that that should opened some uf I go meet somebody
and be like I'm sign. The first thing they say
is like the guy from An. They don't even know
it's me. Oh wow, like the guy from An, Like
I'm you're sterious. I gotta tell them that's me. If
you if you open like trapping tickets. You know what

(02:23:40):
I'm saying. I could have been like I'm a little
d from Aunt, like little bit like so that ship,
I mean, that ship got you out of so much
ship when I and that show was hot for like
fifty show the greatest shows right now, right now they
have a show on Apple Plus all the studio. Yeah,

(02:24:01):
that's rage. Have another to have. Uh uh running point
on Netflix about the bus Family. Oh yeah, the Lakers,
the bust family. Yeah yeah, writing for Entourage, Like you

(02:24:27):
can literally see where they got the seas from, Like
you know what I'm saying, like like Ellen shot Doug
Allen and them guys. The writers see what HBO HBO does.

Speaker 2 (02:24:35):
They did it with all these.

Speaker 1 (02:24:36):
Shows, Sopranos, they did it Wire, they did it with
Sex and the City. The first season they go get
a bunch of C and D level actors so they
ain't got to pay them really a lot, and they
give the money to the writers so they go get
these great writers who fucking write amazing shows. They be
the ones making the two million episode while these actors

(02:24:57):
be making a couple of thousand dollars, right, and so
once the show becomes a hit, and are you locked
in the contract, I'm gonna get four five seasons out
of you before I really got to pay you like
once once, once the's time to renegotiate.

Speaker 2 (02:25:11):
Now you know you a star.

Speaker 1 (02:25:12):
Now you come and be like, no, I need the
big bucks now because I'm popping all around.

Speaker 2 (02:25:17):
Walk like god. Rest of the soul.

that taking off.

Speaker 2 (02:25:58):

Speaker 1 (02:26:01):
And yeah, that was that. That's why you gotta respect.
They know what they fun they're doing over there. I
was talking to Doug Allen and he told me, oh,
and this is how Hollywood works. He said he was
pitching the show to HBO after Entourage. He was like,
after Entourage was such a success, I just knew they
was gonna let me walk anything through these doors, like

(02:26:21):
because because we had so much successful Entourage. And he's like,
me and Mike Tyson did a show and we was like,
I spent a million and a half dollars doing the
pilot on one episode, million and a half and HBO
was like, we don't like it, we don't want it,
like a million half in a whole. I was like, damn,
that's it. He was like, I just knew I had
they was gonna green light it because of my past

(02:26:44):
success with Entourage, and.

Speaker 2 (02:26:46):
You know, so this is that's how Hollywood shows the game.

Speaker 7 (02:26:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:26:51):

called Graves and ya y'all watch Graves in a Yeah,

Because it's sad.

Speaker 1 (02:35:58):
I get sad seeing these young kids, like the young Dolph, Like,
look at all of your nipsey hustle pop smoke. Like
it's to the point now we so CNB Rocks, P
and B Rock We're so desensitized to it now. When
it happens it's like monthly Wizard kid named from from Dallas, Like,
we're just sensitized almost like it's supposed to add supposed

(02:36:19):
to get too terrible. Man, it's terrible. We had poking
big stood out to us, and we ain't getting this
game to die. We gain the ship to get away
from that ship. You know what I'm saying. We left
the streets to come in and prosper and read and
move to the suburbs. Now these motherfuckers is getting in
the game and dying young like babies like. And we

(02:36:41):
look at it like, oh now, it's the disensitation to
where we're not. We don't raise a big flagment that
this ship gota. This ship is gotta stop. Us are
the people because this is this is hip hop and
all be based around the music. It always has something
to do with some hip hop ship's destruction today. That
will were the same way that when I say that

(02:37:01):
shit all the time, I'm like, you put all these
influential people right now on the song and tell motherfuckers yo,
chill yo, we got to stop this ship. I've seen
this ship with Michael Jordan one time, right and it
made me lose so much respect for Mike as a person.
I don't. Matter of fact, I won't say I lost
respect for him, but I was sad. I was hurt
by it. Where member kids used to get killed for

(02:37:22):
Jordan's back in the day. They wanted him to do
a press conference right and be like, Yo, we need
you to tell these kids, these these sneakers ain't worth
dying over. Like he was like, that's gonna take away
the value the shoe. I ain't doing that, ship doing that.
If I do I do that, I want to think
I'm gonna go down from a buck to sixty to forty.

(02:37:44):
I ain't doing that. But they like they're killing them.
They're killing each other over your sneakers. And he was like, nah,
it's gonna and I'm sure it probably wasn't him, it
was probably somebody. He was like, Bro, you can't do that.

Speaker 2 (02:37:57):
A couple of bodies ain't shit.

Speaker 1 (02:37:59):
And now when you look when we look at it
like what drill music was and all this shit was,
and we know who funds the drill movement, it ain't
these kids. They don't got the money to push records.
We know that. We know who push the buttons or
the platform order platform. They don't have that. So you
when we see all the negativity that come back to
self destruction to our community, even with the young ladies,

(02:38:21):
with the females, how they all hyper sexual and all
that shit. I got two daughters, Bro, I'll be looking
at that shit like Yo, y'all need relaxed.

Speaker 2 (02:38:29):
Y'all got to relax with this shit.

Speaker 1 (02:38:30):
Because y'all are the Unfortunately, rappers have become all leaders. Bro.
It's unfortunate, but it's real. Who else do we look
up to like? We look up to like rappers, not
even athletes. Athletes look up to rappers. Everybody looks up
to hit the hip hop gods, everybody. Jay Z's the
top of the food chain when it comes to black culture.

(02:38:52):
If you ask people, yo Arralcun's here, jay Z's here.
Where they gonna be at? You only gonna have both
ties a weird. Anybody else is over there and he's
and he's J's a rapper. So we have to we
hold that responsibility, and a lot of people don't want
to hold it. That's why when you talk about four
four four, you hear a growthriend jay Ship telling niggas,

(02:39:12):
I could have bought a building for two Dumbo. Now
the building Dumbo like telling you be financially responsible to
all of this ship and they don't care if we
if our kids get that or not. They don't give
a ship. They want whatever it's gonna sound so not
not to be long window. But yeah, that's let's let's
get into weld Weshes. That's a song telling everybody that

(02:39:35):
want to see you lose and hate yo, even though
you want to see me fucked up, I want to
see you. Yeah, yeah, it's fix help you. It was
like a hated nigga that like and you you know,
you know what, son, it's sad that you want to
see me fuck up because if it was up to me,
you be in my shoes, right.

Speaker 2 (02:39:54):
You know what I'm saying, Meet Raymond Riches.

Speaker 1 (02:40:03):
It's really it's really the guy who's trying to get
motherfuckers be like, come on, man, it's the soul seal nigga,
Like you want fame and Riches fuck with me, bro, like,
look at these other niggas you gotta It comes to
the point right where your integrity got got to kick
in in some stage because they said that pimper sell
his own ass if the whole ain't making no money real,

(02:40:26):
So you got actually said, who am I in this situation?
I'm not a pimp all hole, I'm I'm a leader,
I'm a black man. I'm like, y'all not gonna get
me in this situation where I feel like I got
bend over because I want a nice call. I want
to I want to keep up with the Joneses. I
remember going to Germany for the first time, Like I said,
I love traveling, and I noticed all the calves with
five hundreds every day, every call was a business. So

(02:40:48):
I'm like, we be over here dying, selling drugs, willing
to out there, and I'm like, we're down for the ship.
We be out here and selling drugs, robbing, doing everything.
The fucking driver some ship that it's just a materialism
and they got us fucked up with that ship. So

(02:41:10):
that that was one of them things like bro, find
find something to lift the stand to stand on as
a man, because once you find a purpose, a lot
of us don't.

Speaker 2 (02:41:19):
Know our purpose.

Speaker 1 (02:41:19):
Shit. Once you find your purpose, your life is going
to open up. All the doors in your life gonna
open up. I got a purpose to be here. Who's
for the young? For the young?

Speaker 2 (02:41:28):
Another one like it speaks to the kids.

Speaker 13 (02:41:33):
Man.

Speaker 1 (02:41:33):
You know they always say this is a young man's game, right,
So who's us as elders? What are we teaching the
young people?

Speaker 2 (02:41:39):
We can't.

Speaker 1 (02:41:40):
It's a young man's game. But we have a responsibility
as that. If I'm a parent, I ain't gonna tell
my kyo feed yourself now you will be having for dinner. Nigga,
you figure it out. I got it. I gotta make
sure you get the nutrient eating the full healthy food
groups so he can grow big and strong. We we
these are our babies. We shun our babies.

Speaker 2 (02:42:02):
I ain't fucking with that.

Speaker 1 (02:42:03):
We ain't fucking with that.

Speaker 2 (02:42:04):
Like, go go figure out on your own.

Speaker 1 (02:42:05):
So when they do, when they all in disarray and
fucked up, and and the only niggas around is the
old ges, who's trying to do negative shit? Yeah, we
got to look at ourselves at some point. That's why
I'm saying, who's for the young ones? Who's for the babies?
But it ain't us and who because we are the elders,
we're the elder statesmans of our community. Yeah, my child,

(02:42:26):
it's me talking to God again, like saying, please don't
let my child go.

the tables turns from when we was young and like
we've grown and it's like what we want for the kids.
It's like to do their thing, and it's like it's happening.
You know, these kids are smart waists. The thing with

(02:44:03):
technology that they have. That's why I got so many
young millionaires. These kids are making so much. When you
got a guy like Constant and see how much money
he's making. Pick up.

Speaker 2 (02:44:11):

Me and my man Benny the Butcher. That's like I
kind of bought Bennie in the dang outside of Griselda.

Speaker 2 (02:45:02):
His cousins in them.

Speaker 1 (02:45:02):
But Benny was the first person that his first radio interview.
I sent him to see Static Selected. He came, my
man brought him. My man was up north with him.
I got this kid from Buffalo, and I remember them
Buffalo niggas up north was nice. So I'm like, he's
from Buffalo. I want to hear him usually like I
don't Buffalo nigga. I'm like, we hear this nigga because

(02:45:23):
I know if the niggas was getting busy. So I'm like,
so he brought him. He's like, his name is Benny.
It was just best ever in New York. That's what
his name still for fort Bennie the Butcher. It was
best ever in New York. And then why so I
met him and I heard him rap, I said, yo,
I got I called Stack Selected. I said, y'all, I
just met this kid. And because Static like people come

(02:45:44):
up on his radio show on rap, I said, you
got to have him up here. Static was like, what's
his name? I'm like Benny. He's like a nigga named Benny.
Fucking with it. I'm like, trust me, Static, this nigga's
going say nigga Okay, no, no, I mean that's another
one of my brothers. Man.

Speaker 2 (02:46:05):
Static is a real and uh yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:46:07):
And I sent him up there and he went up
there and did what he did and from that and
then when when he got when he got with his
cousin who started Griselda already, and I watched his career flourish,
I was so proud, like I wasn't being a West
Side gun. Yeah, west my gun. I was like, yoah,
I knew it because you saw it was about It
was about a skill set. It wasn't about no can make.
He ain't have a fancy shirt on and no ship

(02:46:29):
like that. The niggas just correct, right, you know what
I'm saying. He could rap man, Yeah, Bennie rappers as
on all of the niggasrap Conway, Conway Room Street, all
of niggas is beast. You know. Ransom ran Rans on
album like he's a total beast. Ran Bennet beast since
since ran in Hitchcock, like when when KLU had them.

(02:46:51):
A lot of these guys get their second win, and
I love seeing that because Bennie's first ten to talk
to was in two thousand and four. That's what my friend.
That's how long this kid. I found out he was
rapping for that loan. I'm like, yo, you had a
mixtape in oh four twenty something years ago. Wow, that's
like when my first mixtape came out. He was like, yeah,
but I was in Buffalo. So now niggas in the

(02:47:11):
city wasn't hereing us, you know what I'm saying. But
in Buffalo I was killing shit. I was like, dn,
those come to assistency, perseverance, like it's gonna get the show.
Let's go to two thousand and now that's just some
hip hop said so explaining the story, Yeah, because because
it was timeless because we did it so long ago.

Speaker 2 (02:47:32):
And Q Tip said, never say the year?

Speaker 1 (02:47:34):
What song is that?

Speaker 7 (02:47:35):
On?

Speaker 2 (02:47:36):
Q Tipp be like, never say the year? Like, don't
say the year?

Speaker 1 (02:47:39):
Did you in? I forgot the name of the song?
You know, you guy of going on one of them
tribe albums. He says, never say the year in your
songs because you dated dated dating it. So I was like,
but it's too loud now people like now the press
thing the album is new, like you know yourself was like, yo,

(02:47:59):
it's it's a new album. It's like and it's actually
kind of old, but it's like it got it's got
its repetition, you know, stand power. I was even debating
with the fact that should I tell people that we
did it that long ago or should I just let
them assume. But to me, it's kind of like a
testament and how music has stay in power. I could
go listen to certain albums and certain music, not just

(02:48:22):
hip hop, from any genre, and it's the feeling. I
get a feeling, and once I could, I could like
some and I could feel something. It's two different ships.
I I like this ship, I don't feel it. I
like it, but I don't feel it like they ship.
Like I said when I went to put myself in
danger to go here t o and why that's because
whenever that's don't come on right now. But I feel like,

(02:48:43):
oh my god, either crop going to fucking out, I'm
chilling or about to go do some dumb ship and
it's just that feeling, and it's a feeling you get.
That's that's why when you talk about mad that go
ready to die, it's that's the power of music. Man music.

Speaker 2 (02:49:04):
Yeah, okay, let's think it's a toxic glove.

Speaker 1 (02:49:06):
That's That's one of my favorite songs on the album,
because I think we've all been in one situations where
the sex is keeping us around longer than we should be. There.
I know you're married, man, so you it's probably like
before yeah, before that, married anybody like you know what,
you know what with a good box and like damn,
I said, and you know she likes she might like you,

(02:49:28):
she wants more than that, So you're gonna play the
game just to get the box. So for that week,
you're gonna pretend like you like this bitch, like how
you been Shorty. She's like happy to hear from you,
and you know you're playing and just the fuck it,
you fuck you probably won't call again for three months.
So I'm like, so the whole shit is like, all right,
let's Shorty go find a good nigga bro. Don't be

(02:49:49):
that toxic nigga bro. So it's more so about us.
So it's the man that's toxic, all right. So one
eighty seven point four FM DJ Titty touch let's a skit.

Speaker 2 (02:50:02):
Yeah, that's on my first album.

Speaker 1 (02:50:04):
We uh, we played off doctor dre and which is
just I did DJ t titty touching. That's his ripe
Easy Dick, that's his right hand man, and mom DJ
titt like. So we just played off that to keep
the continuity of the album with Johnson, the album with
Buck Okay being necessities.

Speaker 2 (02:50:25):
I love that song too.

Speaker 1 (02:50:26):
It's just saying we don't need as much as we
think we do a lot of this gluttony ship. What
the fuck is it they gonna do with a hundred
million dollars? Like that ship is a lot of money. Man.
I wanted.

Speaker 2 (02:50:36):
I wanted to, but I probably give it, right, I probably.

Speaker 1 (02:50:38):
Give it away.

Speaker 2 (02:50:38):
I probably give it away.

Speaker 1 (02:50:41):
They don't need it, but I probably give it away, bro,
because after you you don't drove every call, like you said,
what else is it?

Speaker 2 (02:50:47):
You don't drove every car? I got a lot more
work to do.

Speaker 1 (02:50:57):
But Gotti, you know what that car gonna do is
gonna get you to eighty be bro, exactly the same
that can't read up exactly. It just looked nice.

Speaker 7 (02:51:04):
You know what.

Speaker 1 (02:51:06):
I noticed? It was a guy I believe he was accounting,
and he said he has to stop buying gifts for
his rewards because that's deep. Like so every time you
you you win here by something, you buy yourself again
and again. He's like, he's like he spoiled himself so
much that it wasn't about the work, it's about to

(02:51:29):
get gas. And I was just like it was. I
don't know if you ever see them horder shows where
people just keep crazy, people become horders of money, like
they don't have no purpose to why they have it.
They just want a bunch of it.

Speaker 3 (02:51:40):
I mean, you got to think, what can what can
you do with a billion dollars or not exactly bro
the fun there's countries that don't even have them.

Speaker 1 (02:51:47):
Exactly whole country. Why do you need this kind of
money for what?

Speaker 2 (02:51:52):
And then you don't do shit?

Speaker 1 (02:51:53):
I need a lot of them. I need to find
out why that we needed. But what are you willing
to do? What you will? That's the thing. What do
you will? Are you willing to im not not even
no crazy ship? Yeah? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:52:07):
Are you willing to say funk?

Speaker 1 (02:52:09):
What what's gonna hinder me from getting that even though
it's the right thing to do, like spearing up and
saying certain things, especially when you have a voice. So
that's why they call these kids influencers. Now, oh he's
an influencer. He got this many followers. You got a
million followers, he's an influencer. Think about a rapper who
a hundred million people love and look up to your influence,

(02:52:30):
your influencer or steroids nigga. So whatever you tell people
to do, they're gonna do it. Tell you something and
I'm glad you bring that up. The other day, you know,
you follow your algorithms, and I'm what one point one
point something million. I saw three fucking females that never

(02:52:51):
did the worry for they never fast the square garden
nothing something like six million. They don't got looking at
the clicking on this ship. That's crazy. Three don't even talk.
That's what that matters at the end of the day.

(02:53:14):
Really got accola, Yeah, you did a lot in these
women to see me on the streets. She would look
at me like I ain't ship. Yeah, like you got
point six word, like that's real ship. Like they don't
even look at the numbers that numbers lie, though numbers
do lie. Dying never goes out of style, shouts and ransom.

(02:53:38):
You know what? You know what song I was trying
to channel when I made that song. Yeah, nobody, No, No,
it's close number little ghetto boyto just want the original
record what you want to do when you grow up?
So I'm like, damn because he's talking to the kids.

(02:53:58):
So I'm telling the young kid like, dying never goes
out of style, Like nigga, niggas, you could die like
that's one thing that's life and death. So if you think, Okay,
I'm gonna be out here in these streets and I'm
gonna end up somewhere and ultimately in life, nigga, you
probably gonna end up in that in a box, either

(02:54:19):
one of the either the pine box or the box
with the gates to put the balls in front of it,
because you set yourself up for failure and down. When
I say dying ever goes out of style, that means
to reap the grim reapers waiting he's collecting. You don't
care how much money you got, I don't care what
color you off. You play. If you play stupid games,
you're gonna win stupid ass prizes, and that's just how

(02:54:40):
the shit go. That's why a lot of these kids,
one thing, were talking about rappers dying. One thing, they all,
most of them, not all of them, but ninety five
percent of them had in commonedy. They was all in games.
They were all gang affiliated. See what I'm saying. When
you sign up for that shit, you signed when you
sign up to go to a gang. And this whole
shit is going on with the snitch and shit, right,
Lennoy from a time where if the nigga was a snitch, you're.

Speaker 2 (02:55:03):
Supposed to handle that. You're supposed to handle bitness. He
didn't even just talk about it, Yo, this nigga.

Speaker 1 (02:55:07):
Told and let him walk by. Snitches get stitches. You're
supposed to get with. You're supposed to be willing to risk.
If we're really playing my street rules, you're supposed to
be willing to risk your freedom to do something to
that guy because he's a snitch living that life. If
you live in that life, so don't you can't be
halfway with it. A nigga like he told and just
let him walk by? What do you don't know about
j ship? Like when it's like yo. He came in

(02:55:31):
the room and it's like yo, he with you like yo. Sorry,
that was the funniest. That was the funniest. Yeah said yo.
Nigga recoiled like that in the world that back.

Speaker 3 (02:55:57):
You know.

Speaker 1 (02:55:58):
Let's talk about the artificial love. Yeah, that's just a skit,
another skit and the right. I called it artificial love
because I used AI Hey. Yeah, yeah, yeah I did.
I used it AI skited to talk about what I
typed it them. But I use the AI voice because
the artificial is fake. I'm saying, all this love that
niggas is that that should be there. It's a lot

(02:56:19):
of fake. Like even with us in this industry, niggas
smile on your face, they'll hug you to that. Niggas
show you his back teeth and then you call the
nigga nigga. One thing about it. You know, I hit
you know real, be a real one. You know, even
even I don't like to reply hit me back some
of the I got you, I tell you I got
you something. But it's always going always gonna hit you back.
You always gonna let you know. I'm tapped in and

(02:56:41):
I'm sigying, I'm sighing like fucking hold one of the niggas,
but he could easily curb me, like fun this niggas.
But that's that's the real Real niggas do real things,
and that's one of the dealership be Ever said. That's
why I wish he would have had more time on
this earth.

Speaker 2 (02:56:56):
Real niggas do real things. That's I used to love
with you.

Speaker 1 (02:56:59):
Real niggas do real thing and not to use it
in but real people do real shit, you know what
I'm saying. So is there any love in the world
shout out to my boy my song like I had
to go to man, I just don't have to take
it to my song on some real black black man shit.
You know what I'm saying. This is a real It's
that's why I called Paint the World Black. I just
care about my people. I care about everybody. But I

(02:57:20):
think we need the most help because we haven't figured
it out yet. And all we've been through is the
people and we're still here. Yeah, we got we got
everything we need to be like like Asians, like Jews,
like build our own communities, and we.

but has to have all these resources and we still
got ghettos, like we still I was, I was doing

these we go on here coaching these kids. First of all,
they walk past gang members every day. We got to
stop gang members from fucking trying to recruit these niggas
like Sun pick up a flag, you know what I'm saying.
So that's one thing. He's white, so he's he needs
me to be the blackface to be like yo, because
I could talk to Son and like, let the nigga

(02:58:17):
come to practice, bro, like stop trying to make the
nigga gang bang, and it'd be some of the bro
big brothers and all that ship to the point where
Newark is a tough town.

Speaker 2 (02:58:25):
You like, you got to get it on with some
of these niggas.

Speaker 1 (02:58:27):
I'm like, yo, fam, we just trying to do right now,
and I find myself in these situations, so what fuck
me up?

Speaker 2 (02:58:33):
It's like, this is Newark.

Speaker 1 (02:58:34):
Like shacks from Newark, clean up teams from Newark, not
the not the like put the light on them. But
the school had to forfeit games because they couldn't afford
the proper equipment to play against other schools that had up,
so they had to do coporate gamesrate corporate gangs. So
they had to forfeit their gag yeah, because the equipment

(02:58:56):
wasn't up to pall. So I'm like all of oh,
they had to cut the boy cut the I'm like, nah,
we don't need the we got we come together, we
got this. We can't afford fucking football uniforms for these
kids in twenty twenty three, twenty and in the schools
that they want to play, they want to play. These
kids want to get out the street, they want to
play football, but they got they can't even play. So

(02:59:17):
that's a deterrent that's gonna make you be like, fuck
the what's the point of me playing? We can't even play.
I'm nice and I can't even play because we can't
afford helmets. Fucking I'm gonna go join the cripts like
the ship is bugged out and we don't we don't
speak up enough as the people as a as a
I hate, just hate that word community because we ain't
got no unity. You can't say community without unity. So

(02:59:39):
you have unity, you don't have a community. That's just it.
The the Games got a WBGT, they got a community.
Fuck with them if you want to. The Jews got
a community. If everybody got a community, we call our
shit the hip hop community, the black community. We got neighborhoods.
We don't got communities. That's why we say the hood.
I'm from the hood. We don't say I'm from the community,
because nigga, you don't you beef. You shoot across street,

(03:00:03):
you live across street from you. How is that a community?
Would you ever do reality TV again? No? Never, never,
unless unless I can control the edit and tell what
I need and tell the story I want to tell.
I would never do that again because the edit we
have a different bottom line, there's a different like subject.
If it's like you speaking to the youth, I still

(03:00:25):
got to see the editcause because they if their goal
is going to be to give viewers, they're gonna use drama.
Somehow they're gonna make something dramatic. So what made what
made you start thinking like that? My experience? Yeah, Love
and hip Hop?

Speaker 2 (03:00:38):
Because you know my baby moms relax. I'm sorry, cool
right now? Yeah, So what what makes you think like that?

Speaker 1 (03:00:49):
I love this thigg though, you gotta relate. What made
you think like that? What experienced in Love and Hip Hop?
Like it was the edit? Because everything that they were
doing didn't actually happen, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (03:01:04):
I'm like, oh yeah, I mean it was happened to Jenda.

Speaker 1 (03:01:07):
Give me. Let me give you an example, like on
a reunion show. Right, there was a time where me
and hers trump We're both telling our side of the story,
and every time I would try to talk, she would
cut me off, yo, because she ain't want no dirt
on her name. So I'd be like, I don't hardly
know this girl. Me and this girl never been We
have a kid, but we never even we went to

(03:01:28):
dinner one time. I'm like, let me tell us. Every
time I try to tell a story, she'll cut me off.

Speaker 2 (03:01:34):
She cut me off.

Speaker 1 (03:01:35):
She cut me off, She cut me off, right, So
I'm like, cool, you keep cutting me off. I'm gonna
let you talk because you you must got more to say.
I'm not going to interrupt you. One time. I let
her speak. She sits there and tells her side of
our story.

Speaker 2 (03:01:50):
I sit here and let her get all of it out.
So I said, can I talk now?

Speaker 1 (03:01:54):
It's the reunion show. Can I speak now? She's like,
all I gots When I go to speak and tell
my side of the story, Erica, what about she cut
me a cook? So then I go, I get frustrated,
so I'm like, shut the funk, shut up, shut up,
let me talk.

Speaker 2 (03:02:08):
When they aired it, that's.

Speaker 1 (03:02:11):
Trying to say one word, and I was like, shut
the funk off. I was like, Yo, that's not when
I fucking happened, you know. I'm like, that's some likes
a piece of ship. I'm like, yo, this just showed
me trying to be like yo, can I get a
word in? Like that what happened? So when they aired it,

(03:02:31):
she went to talk and she was like a damnsel
and distress, like you know, when I be trying to
talk to shut the funk off, I look like going Stirling.
I'm like, oh hell no, I said I that was
just a re Union show. Did you feel that they
violated you on an actual show? Did they? Did they do?
You know what?

Speaker 2 (03:02:51):
Yeah, because what happened was.

Speaker 1 (03:02:56):
They was fucking me at first, but once they seen
that me and her, they were That's why Stevie J.
Was smart. He started saying, fuck it, I'm gonna play
the game. I'm gonna start making silly little faces and
I'm gonna be a womanizer. And niggas is womanizer. A
lot of niggas womanizers and they know that. But when
you put a womanizer on the show with a demographics
ninety seven percent women and watch that ship, we didn't

(03:03:18):
go home and run home and watch Loving hip hop.
It was girls females, So they like, oh, we could
make niggas look any kind of way, and you know
that's what they were doing.

Speaker 2 (03:03:27):
Like, fuck, it is the opportunity.

Speaker 1 (03:03:29):
It's gonna get us ratings, it's gonna make him look
like ship, it's gonna make the girl look good. Let's
do it. Yeah a formula. I love loving him, but
I know I love watching it still. Yeah, I haven't
been watching the news. Yeah, they got like loving hip hop.

I was physically there, but I've seen it do online.
She's working with Buster again and I seen I've seen
them both looking so happy together. I was like, you

it being on Violet because your niggas and again ship

because you know Mona's officers over there, Chris had the

I was doing Entourage, you ever heard of the firm
as a management company in LA. They only do holly,

came and signed me. So I'm like, damn signed to
the firm, this big ass. So I'm like what other hip?
I noticed these niggas ain't know what they were doing.
So there was like we got two other rappers. I'm like,
who are like Snoop Dogg and Ice Cube. I spied
the fun so you don't got I can managed Snoop

(03:06:03):
dog Bigga. I can pick up anybody and be like yo,
I got Snoop Dogg. Yeah, I'm like so that's what
that's the reason why y'all niggas ain't picking up my
call like we'll. Snoop ice Cube and Sigone were the
only three urban acts in this whole company.

Speaker 2 (03:06:20):
And I told her, I said, I gotta get the

this is cool, but I want to rap so and
then I went from there to Violator and then there was.

Speaker 2 (03:06:39):
Another little fish in the big pond. So I'm like
this all over.

Speaker 1 (03:06:43):
Again because I went from Snoop Dogg and to these
niggas like Jory and Caple and I'm like, shit, different
same thing, same shit, no intention. But I was just
happy to be around that energy though, and say I
was a part of this history. I have to be
a part of violetor yeah, it was part of the history, bro,
even working with like I got a jay Z verse, bro,
like I'm about to act. When was the first time

(03:07:04):
jay Z took your beat. Oh ship, he took mad beats.
Who was the first one, first one I think was
king my kingdom come. It was probably show me what
you got, Show me what you got now you get
that up. That wasn't you. I know it was mad.
You know what, it wasn't totally act like you was mad.

(03:07:25):
It wasn't a man supposed to act like I was
going mad at Joss. You had verses that already. No, no,
I wasn't in style that it wouldn't even kingdom content
were because I couldn't figure it out. I was trying.
This is when I wanted that Nigga just kept to me.

(03:07:46):
That's like one of my least I don't even think
jaybody it like that. Get I could get rid of
that j that wasn't in this kingdom coming.

put a verse on it and then he then he
was like, yo, I'm about to take some other shits.
I was my son, but he was like, nah, I'm
