Up and right now we have we have.

Speaker 3 (08:21):
A group that I grew up personally. They personally raised me.
They didn't know it, but through their bars and through
their lyrics, they personally raised me. I lived my life
according to them. They made Queens so proud, They made
Brooklyn so proud, They made New York City so proud,

(08:43):
They made the borough so proud. They was a dude
that was from my borrow. That was kicking ship that
was for our burrow. But it went globally every time.
And they got back together and they made the most prolific,
the most influent, you the most the craziest album. I

(09:03):
didn't skip not one record this new album, and they
got the rail fife. They didn't get no no no.
I could tell they was in the studio together. He didn't,
he didn't email those verses.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
And I'm a.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
Part of a group, so I know how hard it
is to stick together with the group. So right now,
what I'm introducing is the motherfucking tribe called Crest, and
I need everybody to make some mother fucking no.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
Legends. I gotta get.

Speaker 3 (09:42):
I gotta get straight to my back in the days
in the boulevard, sometimes.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Being the doors down trying to work. Don't worry it,
don't worry. Don't worry Yo.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
Up back in the day, you gotta you gotta take
us to that back in the days in the bull
of Water.

Speaker 4 (10:05):
Then you gotta take us, I mean where that was. Like.
First of all, thank you man, you know, famed my nigga.
You know what I'm saying. So I really appreciated ship Ship,
not only for having us here, but the ship you're
doing for the motherfucking culture. You know what I'm saying.
And just keeping shit straight now. But to your question
and ship, you know that was a joint that I mean,

(10:28):
first of all, just growing up how we did, like
real talk, like it's a real ship. We grew up
in Jamaica, Queen. You know what I'm saying. He was
right on the split between North and South side and
all that. You know what I'm saying, Shouts of American
and all that shotow all the niggas over there.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
You know what I'm saying. I came.

Speaker 4 (10:50):
All that, you know what I'm saying. So our whole
ship when we was coming up, you know what I'm saying.
You know how this is when you're a little nigga
around the way you.

Speaker 1 (11:05):
Come over here and squeeze in.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
Come on, squeeze inna do it come up?

Speaker 4 (11:13):
But like but like I was saying, you know, you
know how the decision you grow up, it's either the
streets ship, the ball ship, or if you have the
rap ship. But so the rap ship for us, you know,
we will always listen to the cold crush niggas and
the flashes and or running it and running them lit it.
That was the That was the angle. And it was

(11:33):
like the trade off with the bars, with the with
the routines. So we always came up with routines like that.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
That was a whole ship.

Speaker 4 (11:42):
So you know the back in the days and the
Boulevard and Linden was kind of like that throwback, you know,
that back and forth type ship just within that whole
tradition of MC and so that that that's really what
that came up with. You know, we just stick it.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
To the roots.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
I'm I'm gonna be honest, man, you guys, if it
wasn't for you, I'm gonna be honest.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
And this is this, this this this is how real.
This is how real it is.

Speaker 3 (12:09):
I want everybody to pay attention to listen to what
I'm about to say, in a lot of ways.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
I wouldn't have been who I was if it wasn't
for Pharrell right right right.

Speaker 3 (12:20):
A lot of people give me credit for putting on
for real, but you did. But like a lot of
people don't know, is I was eager. I was strong
enough to listen to this guy right right, right, right
right and to see it. But Pharrell is a direct
descendant of try direct right, He's a direct child. He's

(12:42):
your stepson. You remember he was, he was he was
supposed to be on beach around the life.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
Yeah, Pharrell was got a versus.

Speaker 6 (12:54):
But then he came back to the beach when when
Timmy did.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
Once again, Yeah, I coach him through the battery.

Speaker 4 (13:01):
Yeah. The first the first joint though with with with
Pharrell was man named Riders. This crazy story about Forrell
and all those dudes was we used to do shows
like so back in the day, right, it's almost you know,
you just take me to the essence for my niggas.
I just got to keep it a buffet, you know,

(13:22):
back then, right when you was in New York rap group,
you hit the circuit, get up, get up and tap it.
You get Connecticut or whatever. Like if it was a weekend,
you probably do a couple of joints in Connecticut. Boom,
we hit Jersey, then let me hit the joint in
New York. You could literally do like eight fucking shoves
in one night.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Right.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
So the extension of that was the ninety five ship,
you hit the VA DC, the d MV ship, the
Carolina Lina and all that. So we was heavy down
there and back then. So we would always be like
in d C VA area and Forarrell would be at
the shows shows backstage would about the fucking costume jewelry.

Speaker 7 (14:02):
On the city and we were like, y'all, I was
like a funk with this nigga.

Speaker 4 (14:13):
So I was like, Yo, come come to the studio.
So there'd be a bunch of these dudes they come
to the studio. He would be one of them that
would come in the studio and know he would come
from V A K. He was just started working with
Teddy Teddy Wiley.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Because because a lot of people don't know that produce
and all that ship.

Speaker 4 (14:33):
Yeah yeah, so he was like on the come up
with all that ship. So he actually first started he
put a burst up on mid named Marauders. Correct, but
but but but cons Actually his first verse was on
the flip of you know, the chase part too off
of them. As a lot of people say that Conz

(14:54):
was like beswas likely it was actually him and no name.
You know what I'm saying? All that ship so you know.
At the same time, you know what's a fun fact.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
The guy, my boy that created.

Speaker 2 (15:04):

Speaker 1 (20:26):
Saying it transcend that.

Speaker 4 (20:29):
You know why?

Speaker 10 (20:30):
You know why?

Speaker 1 (20:31):
Let me just tell you something.

Speaker 3 (20:32):
To you guys are the impitime of what hip hop is.

Speaker 1 (20:37):
Supposed to be. It depended me. I mean I remember,
I remember the.

Speaker 3 (20:44):
First time I was ever offended was Man and I'm sorry,
I'm going into it a little go go, but LOOPI fiasco.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
They rehearsed what was it? Loope?

Speaker 3 (20:55):
And then rehearsed your ship and then he came out
and he didn't know what harrys am, I correct, what's that?

Speaker 1 (21:03):
Loope? That was hip hop?

Speaker 3 (21:06):
I was so offended because he said I really wasn't
a fan of tribe. Stop it slide, find your whole
style tribe, just say you were.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
I would have respected that. And I got loved from
Lupe that moment.

Speaker 3 (21:24):
I love Loop.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
Please ya.

Speaker 3 (21:30):
Doing that that moment when they fucked up the tribe vocals,
I was so I was so mad.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
Did you discuss that?

Speaker 11 (21:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (21:41):
Yeah, yo, let me tell you tell you about that.
So when we spoke about it, he I think if
my memory sarved me correctly, I think I could if
he could have reached out to me, I could have
reached out to him because I saw niggas, you know
what I'm saying. I was like, you know what. I
was like, you know that's a young young brother, So

(22:01):
let me just reach out, yo. Like it's so good
and just talking. He was like, Yo, I ain't I
believe because it was such a long time ago, but
the sentiment of it was like, Yo, I ain't never
mean no offense. You know that o J y'all probably
fucked him. I was like, it's all good, brother. He's like,
I never came up on y'all. I came up on
Spice one and I came up on He was mad,
ratchet ship. I was like, okay, I did because I'm like,

(22:23):
you know why, you know why, because I'm gonna take
a man for his bird. When he said to me initially,
I'm not gonna give him a demerit, I'm not gonna
give him a demerit because he ain't never really did
nothing to me personally or otherwise for me.

Speaker 1 (22:34):
To I took his word for right.

Speaker 4 (22:37):
So he's a young boy at the time, so I'm
just talking this shit. So he said at one point
in the conversation, he's like, see you try to I
see you try to teach your lesson. And he laughed
and we both had a little laugh you know about it.
And it was just always always cool with Bro. It
was never was a problem. But we spoke about it
and he came up off of it and shouts out

(22:58):
to Lupe.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
Man because I was mad at you. That figure you up.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
But let me just tell you something. The beautiful this
about your album, this new album, that's when.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
I heard it.

Speaker 12 (23:11):
I heard where Kanye got his ship from. Wow, I
heard where Pharrell got his ship from. I heard where
Norieger got his ship from. I heard Real Mob Deep

Speaker 1 (23:26):
Like I was like, damn, these niggas is the fathers
of everybody. And there's mad layers to the album too.
You know what made me.

Speaker 3 (23:36):
Cry The Fifth Dog song that that that made me.
That made me cry because I want a big up
fife dog. And I remember one day que Tip, Yeah,
that's I remember one day q Tip And fight is
going through some ship and me and Paem was going
through some sh at the same exact time, and I
called Tip and I was like, what shop?

Speaker 1 (23:56):
He said, you know how it is being a part.

Speaker 3 (23:59):
The part it's crazy and guess what you're crazy to
exactly And it made so much sense.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
Man, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
And I just want to thank you guys for raising
us in hip hop straight.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
You know what I'm saying. A tribe called Quest people
who who who don't know?

Speaker 3 (24:20):
I feel sorry for them, But people who do know
we need to celebrate y'all, not just today but every day.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
Every day.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
We need to sit back and say what the tribe
did for the culture.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
And the community is is nobody don't know?

Speaker 3 (24:40):
There's no other group that so this is Is this
the last tribe.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Called Quest album? Because the fact that Fighters is not
here Western Peace fright.

Speaker 4 (24:49):
I mean, it's just I guess we're still kind of like,
you know, you can't even really think about another tribe
without that man. You know what I'm saying, Like that
ship would have to be something else, totally different, you
know what I'm saying, because that man is just like
he was the motive.
