I feel to be a dream Ville Yeah, it feel great.
This is my first one school. Yeah, it's my first one.
I heard that it might be the last Dreamville Fest.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Hearing, I was like, Man, ain't no where in the
world they say that to get people out.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
That what it is. It worked it out, So that's
why I'm already. I decided to come through. And it's
good because I knew the networking was gonna be on ten.
You hear.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
As soon as I walk up in here, I see
my brother. It's literally like my brother in battle, you
know what I mean. We're on the same team fighting
in Guard's army. And then I meet the beautiful ladies
from Poor Mindes.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
I'm super familiar, you hear.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
So, yeah, y'all finally get the link with y'all. That's
what it's all about.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
I'm not performing, yeah, love.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
Some people in the industry, they only pull up somewhere
if they getting paid for it, and I ain't them
to know it's sometime the most valuable experiences you're gonna have.
I ain't gonna pay you a dime up front, but
on the back end, because of them seeds that you plant,
it's gonna pay ten times what you could have got.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
I want to dive right into it because you you there,
and I want you to stay there, possibly one because
he right down. We all want to know, like what
made you take that route? You know what I'm saying, Like,
you're not calling rappers out, you are also saying you're
calling them out for what they're saying for what are
their influencing you get? You know what I'm saying, letting
(03:03):
them know their power of being an influence, Like why
did you take that route?
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Man? Because all these rappers claim they believe in God.
You heard me.
Speaker 5 (03:11):
So if you claim you believe in God, then you
gotta say, okay, I.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Believe God's word.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
And God's word literally says in Proverbs eighteen and twenty one,
there's life and death in the power.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Of that tongue. You heard me.
Speaker 5 (03:26):
It is so the words that we speaking, the words
that were putting out there making songs be going platinum off.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Of going triple platinum off of these words.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
If we glorifying murder, glorifying drug dealing, glorifying being a
trap of drilling, you heard me, glorifying disrespecting women, how
does that show that you truly believe in God? Like
how it's a direct contradiction. It ain't hip hop. I
call it hipocritical hop. And that's the name of my
new album, hippocritical hop. You heard me, because that's what
(03:55):
the industry to turn to.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yeah at DC, Yeah, you know how the past did
somebody in what sweat?
Speaker 6 (04:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (04:04):
Yeah, So that's why, brother, I mean, on this stage
right here, raise your hand. If you done lost the
loved one of the gun violence, raise your hand.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
I feel like I'm in.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Come on, man, raise your hand.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
Got a loved one or close friend that's in jail
right now?
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Raise your hand. You see what I'm saying? Like that,
I got listen, y'all.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
This ain't rare no more. This is the norm in
our community. And we became complicit with that being normal. Man, murder, destruction, death,
jail time. That shouldn't be normal, right, That shouldn't be normal.
So I'm in the hip hop to just say hey,
I love you, I love you, I love you such and.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Such, I love you such and such.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
But we can do better because y'all going home to
gated communities.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Y'all kids is in private school.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
But when you get on these songs, you want to
pause in the minds of somebody else kids, what you're
talking about?
Speaker 4 (04:51):
That an't fair? That ain't gangster.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
White Man Joe walked by because he's like, who's disturbing
the objective?
Speaker 4 (04:57):
He heard what you was saying. He's like, we want
them to do the opposite. Literally, you're talking that talk.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yeah, but like I want to I want I want
you to die because I want you to get into
the story you gave me. Bro when when you said
that you wasn't a rapper, you was fred O Bang's
middle school teacher, like.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
Streak, Yeah, yeah, before before d one, I was mister
Augustine right here, yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
Period.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
So I was teaching middle school. I'm from New Orleans.
I was in bad he that believe that believe that.
So I was in Baton Rouge Louis and the teaching
middle school. And while I'm teaching middle school, I'm trying
to teach them multiplication division and they having trouble learning
the math that I'm teaching them. But they know all
the little Boosie lyrics, all Kevin Gates's lyrics.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
You heard me, all Lil Wayne lyrics.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
So I'm like, hold on, man, hip hop is.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
A better teacher than school is at this point.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
So if I really want to make a difference in
this world, maybe I need to be in hip hop
and have the heart of a teacher. But the platform
of a rapper, you heard me, And that's when I
became d one and I.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Saw teach your platform of a rapper?
Speaker 5 (05:59):
Come on, man, that was so that's so, that's that's
what made me want to become a rapper professionally. And
it ain't no good, it's jib if I had to
make it by compromising all my morals. So the goal
was I gotta make it as a rapper, but I
gotta make it by standing on the same business I've
been standing on. So my motto is be real, be righteous,
be relevant you.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
So, are there any rappers that like really surprised you
as far as their reaction to what you're doing, Like
they were extremely supportive or extremely standoff ish?
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Uh, extremely supportive.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
I'm gonna just say I got upcoming collaborations with certain
people who from the outside looking at you'll be like, oh,
that don't go together, that it never works. So me
and BG got a song drop you heard me. It's
called My Enemies. I'm gonna send it to your DC
right after this.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
We're gonna hit me up like get back.
Speaker 6 (06:47):
It's gonna have a verse on it.
Speaker 5 (06:55):
And and and me and somebody else just collaborated from
my from my state that people and never expect.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
And I'm gonna just give y'all a little hint. Let
me see.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
S I. Oh, so y'all going crazy now, y'all get
ready for that. So I love these unexpected collaborations that
I could do with people.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
You heard me. Me and Juvenile got something coming.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
So I'm just big on my state in Louisiana seeing that,
like dang, like you could be a man of God
and you can still be authentically from this state that we.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Love so much.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
You heard me, And it don't have to be like, oh,
you either in the church or you in the streets,
like nah, some people is like I got gaard with
me everywhere I go, and.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
God want me to be in the streets.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
God just don't want me to be in the streets
doing what they glorifying in the streets.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
He wanted me to be in the streets on business.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
You heard me talk, man, So that's why you ain't
gonna just catch me isolating myself from people. Man, Like
I love the smile. I was a fan of this
dude for so many years. I got so many text
messages of me putting people on to him before we
ever met. So now that we're actually friends, just be like,
this is a god friendship. You heard this guard all
day because I saw he would make me laugh so hard.
(08:06):
But then also I knew I was like, dang, this
brother got a huge platform, and don't mind letting people know. Man,
I'm a believer. I'm gonna know that that right there.
I admire that type of stuff you feel.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
So I think that's good that what you do.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Sorry to me, areut you. It's good because I feel
like with having these platforms, a lot of people don't
realize you hold a responsibility to a certain extent.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Thank you, Thank you rappers.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
Be trying to act like it ain't my responsibility to
raise your kids.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
I just feed my family off of this.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
What you don't realize is the words that you're putting
out there. Man, we can all remember lyrics from our
favorite rap song from fifteen years ago right now. That's
how powerful music is. I can't remember a sermon from
fifteen years ago. I can't remember nothing my teachers told
me like a heart to heart talk fifteen years ago.
But I could wrap every Lil Wayne lyric from the
(08:57):
Call to One, the Call to two, the Carter three,
the Black is Hot lights out. You hear me like,
music is powerful. So when rappers act like I ain't
got no responsibility, I'm just doing this to make money
and then I'm going to live my life, that's selfish,
right in my opinion.
Speaker 7 (09:11):
So speaking of responsibility and startling back to your background
and education, could you tell us a little bit about
the class that you were teaching at university?
Speaker 6 (09:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (09:20):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're talking about the one I
teach now, yeah yeah yeah yeah. I thought, man, I
thought people really knew that. Like, I'm a teacher first
and foremost. So three years ago when I announced that
now I'm a college professor in addition to being a rapper,
a lot of people were surprised. But if you really
know my background, Like I told DC, I've been a
(09:41):
teacher since before all this, so not teaching on a
college level. They gave me the freedom to develop a class.
So the name of my class is the intersection of
hip hop and Social chain, Right, So my whole class
we talk about how hip hop can be used to
make the social conditions better in our community.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
You feel me? So it's a bl We talked never
Wednesday though, yes, e ever Wednesday. It wasn't university. It's
in Boston.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
That's fig.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
I fly from Atlanta up to Boston every week teach
and that fly back down that FI.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
That's amazing every week, don't yeats all right?
Speaker 7 (10:19):
Talking about practice?
Speaker 4 (10:20):
What you Yeah, we're trying to you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
It's cool because I really got like I was just
grading homework before I came out here in my student
what he was saying, Yeah, I was in my hotel.
I was grading their assignment. The last assignment that I
gave him was on uh we watched the Lil Wayne
interview where he was talking about his mental health. Right,
he did an interview with uh what's dual name? And man,
you will at you or something like that. The supposed
(10:43):
to do so Lil Wayne did an interview talking about
mental health and talking about how he shot himself when
he was younger because of his mental health he was
dealing with. We watched that in my class and we
did a whole lesson on the state of mental health
inside of hip hop. They said that seventy three percent
of artists, rap and singers deal with mental health issues.
(11:05):
So that just go to show you that although we shining,
we got jewelry, we got money, we're getting booked, a
lot of people hurting on the inside in this industry.
So man, like, that's why I like to ask DC
when I see them, how you doing off the mic.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
I don't care about I see your book, I see
your calendar.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
That's great, But we got to care about each other
as people, man, absolutely, because a lot of us struggling
and mental.
Speaker 6 (11:24):
Health is so important.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
And I don't know why as a community we shy
away from going to therapy, especially our black men.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Yeah, I mean, I'm I'm a firm believe that God
is the therapist, because with therapy, they'll.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Beat around the bush. Sometimes people need to get it out.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
When you're not at the house speaking and getting it
out and talking to the most high about it. Then
you're never really getting it off your chest. This will
be the first time you ever actually said it to
someone and now you're hearing it. But then they'll be.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Like, so why did you think like that?
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Then? What made you?
Speaker 6 (11:57):
It?
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Make you talk, it makes you get it out. Never
really find a solution. They help you find a solution.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Wow, that's true.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
I think it takes a lot of work.
Speaker 6 (12:07):
But I think y'all being black men who may you know,
go to church or talk about mental health because they
don't even feel like there's a safe space to talk
about that. So I think y'all having a big platform
and just opening up the conversation, they'll know like, hey,
yes I pray, Yes I go to church, Yes I
care about mental health. Just getting the conversation started right
(12:28):
you step.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
But see, it's the stigma of men is already strong.
So like how he said that, how you doing? We
tend to everybody know that, don't nobody care about your problems?
You need to already have it figured out. I think
men have to come have to come together as a
collective to have people they can go to who are
problems solvers. Yeah, like, hey, bro, how you feel about this.
(12:51):
I need to get it on my chair anyway, but
I need to make sure I'm thinking in the right direction.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
You feel what I'm.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Saying, because it ain't more so like you you talking
to a therapist about it. A lot of men just
ain't got nobody to talk to Pete.
Speaker 7 (13:04):
Yeah, I mean, and I think a lot of black
men don't want to accept either that it's okay to
not be okay. I feel like y'all feel like y'all
always have to have it all together, and you.
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Don't because if you feel weak, and if if the
wrong person see you in your in your time of weakness,
they'll never let you live that down. Some dudes, they
girls would throw that in their face. Boy, you was
crying when such and such happening. Boy you ain't that
you ain't and man, that stuff will stick with you forever.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
But it's more so like being in the army.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
We gotta be trained in condition to know that, okay,
there is a problem, but you have already been trained
to handle problems. So it's like being in the army.
You're trained that you may encounter a problem. You just
don't know when. Yeah, so you don't win two three months.
Oh it's nice because everything is looked under control until
(13:56):
the until happened. And then now you in the army, nigga,
it's time to use all the gadgets. That's so on
your your vest, your friends who are supposed to be
prayer warriors. Dude, you got my back. All right, let's
go together, let's pray together. Or that's Everything is an analogy,
(14:17):
but you break it down and you apply it how
you apply it.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
We're all emotionally and spiritually going through a battle even
when we leave our house, so we must be attacked
for whatever war that we may encounter. We may come
back home and be like, oh, that was a good day.
It was just that day that nothing happened. What about
tomorrow when now this is when you're gonna have to
apply all the knowledge and everything, apply it because it
(14:43):
don't it don't feed no purpose if nothing.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Is going on.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
Yeah, that's real. That's see what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (14:50):
Phil has been like your biggest obstacle in getting your
message out there.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
My eagle, really, yeah, my eagle.
Speaker 5 (14:59):
Yeah, because sometimes getting my message out there, I'm knowing
that I'll overthink stuff you feel me, I'll be in
my own head. I'll be like, man, I text such
and such to hop on the song. They ain't hit
me back. Man, they must not really rock with me. Man,
maybe what I'm doing ain't all that impactful after all.
Next thing, you know, I'll psych myself out of even
wanting to attempt to be the best version of me
(15:21):
that I can because I done told myself.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
Now you just David Man, you heard me like, yo, you.
Speaker 5 (15:25):
Little your little fifteen minutes of fame might be cooling
off now or da da da the devil will really
have me thinking I'm just averaging mediocre out cheer.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
You heard me?
Speaker 5 (15:34):
When God is like, boy, you chosen you, hear me
like your light shines so bright in other people eyes.
But if I'm looking for approval from the world constantly,
then every time I get that rejection, I'll be sitting
there like, dang, I'm not worthy of something. When God
is like, if you wasn't worthy, I wouldn't even allow
you to be on my gee. You feel me, and
you only got a limit your time down here, So
(15:56):
why are you gonna overthink all these little precious minute
you got or you're just gonna say it back.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
That ain't a rejection, that's a redirection. You heard me.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
Keep it moving, keep it going, keep it going, you
feel So that's just trying to get out my own
way with my ego.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
And to add on.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Top of that, I think I also have to be
instilled in us that every thought that come across in
our head is not us. A lot of people don't
know what to decipher, like, oh, that's not me.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Every time somebody thinks something crazy, they're like, why am.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
I thinking that I must be crazy?
Speaker 3 (16:27):
You're like, hey, look, you're gonna drive yourself right then,
because you have to let the spirit get in control.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
That's not you.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
And once you realize that ain't me, you will have
something to lean on when the trum's trying to kick in.
Speaker 5 (16:43):
What what did y'all just catch this man saying every
voce we hear in our head that ain't even us.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
You heard me?
Speaker 3 (16:50):
That's powerful because the enemy play playground is confusion. So
when you confused, just like you said, when all I'm
hearing is the enemy was just it was only and
you were like, am I really?
Speaker 4 (17:01):
Am I really? They're not fucking with me?
Speaker 3 (17:04):
No, that is the enemy telling you stuff and you're
starting to believe it. Yeah, And once you start to
believe it, it becomes really a lot of us create false.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
And narratives in our head. Is faith? Yeah, literally, all
them shit's faint, literally yo.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Yeah, the one that's not official, the one that does
not coming from the most high.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (17:22):
May those are the thoughts that you don't need to
water and pay attention to. Now when you do have
your good thoughts, those are the ones you're supposed to
really nourish, and those are the seeds that are supposed
to go.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
And the other thing is this. If it's not ego,
it's money.
Speaker 5 (17:35):
And I'll tell you this because there was a time
in my life where I was like, man, if I
could ever have one hundred thousand dollars, boy, like that'd
be crazy because nobody in my family ever had six
figures all there once.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
So it made six figures right.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
Then it's like you get there and you get that,
and then it'd be like, oh, this ain't nearly enough.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
Hold on, man, we gotta we gotta bump this thing.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
I need five hundred kick Bam, you hit that go man,
I need a am you heard me, bam. And you
realize that there's never a point if we don't get
our mind in check.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Money will always be.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
Something where it's like, all right, I'm dangling this amount
over your head. You grind so hard to get to that,
and then it's like, oh, I done moved up here.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
Now you know what I'm saying. Now I'm dangling that amount.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
And if we allow money to be a destination that
we're chasing as opposed to a tool that we're using,
then we'll be slaves to that money for our entire life.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Literally.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
And if you're a slave to money, then you serving money.
You can't be serving God. You can't have two masters.
And as black people, we always gonna have an excuse.
We always gonna be able to say, well, man, I
gotta get this bag because my family ain't never have it.
All of us got that excuse if we want to
say that. I don't think none of us came from
a silver spoon, right, But we got to get to
the point to where we say, I'm not gonna lean
(18:45):
on that as a crutch. I'm gonna realize that there's
a healthy, balanced way to be about my bag. But
the real bag, the real bag is building a generation.
Speaker 4 (18:54):
You hear men.
Speaker 5 (18:55):
That's what a real bad we need to be chased,
breaking down word.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
That's already recreating.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
The whole new meeting.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
What we got it for Capellar ship don't mean what.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
It means no more. What we thought is now I
gonna get a bag with.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
The grocery store.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
I am building for the generation, be.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
All that generation. Yeah, that's facts though.
Speaker 5 (19:22):
Man.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
So my new single Gangster is out right now. You
heard talk.

Speaker 4 (20:11):
We come from. I promise it's so hard where we
come from.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
And the fact that now we see each other, we
like boy life good boy, like we blessing and we
don't forget who our blessings come from. So Ye had
a new album that I'm dropping this called Hypocritical Hop,
So get ready for that too.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
And that's it.
Speaker 5 (20:27):
Man. I'm just real grateful for y'all. You know what
I mean, because yeah, man, like we all in this
thing together. Ain't no competition, It's just it's just collaboration,
you see what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (20:36):
And I think it's good to see, Like I said,
black people just in general, man and woman use our
platform to spread positivity and for them to see somebody
who is in the position that you're in and still
speaking about God, mental health and all those positive things.
I think that's amazing what you're doing because a lot
of people are scared to talk about it because they
feel like it's not relatable or it's.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Not We're definitely relatable, not women that we got to
make it cool. We gotta make cool, and we got to.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Make people feel comfortable being themselves because I guarantee you
ninety nine percent of black people are not going home
at night and praying to the devil. I guarantee you
it or not you like most people are out here
like yeah, man, absolutely, I know that it is a
higher power.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
Then whether or not they feel like, well, that's.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
Jesus, that's okay, that's this that some people trying to
figure it out, but they can't figure it out if
they don't have real life examples they're showing them like, look, man,
I'm a believer and I'm confident about who I believe
in and what I believe in.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
You feel me, so.
Speaker 6 (21:35):
That that rights who has real influence and who don't.
Speaker 4 (21:39):
And once you realize really live and who you.
Speaker 6 (21:41):
Are and yourself and people reject you, then it's like
who really are you? Then?
Speaker 2 (21:45):
And once like God got you can't nobody to stop you.
Speaker 7 (21:49):
Be afright to use your platform to promote him and
to let people know what He's dead in your life.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
Because if you know that God is truly the distributor
of the blessing, uh huh, then you're gonna be like man,
if you you and you don't like.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
Me, I ain't even stress from your because everything that
we have is because of him, not because of us.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
But people forget this.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Okay, don't get that's all man.
Speaker 4 (22:22):
I'm gonna say that everywhere we go.
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Everywhere we go, y'all, we better go there, and we
better be the thermostat, not the phenometer.
Speaker 4 (22:30):
We're gonna set the temperature wherever we go.

Speaker 4 (22:37):

Speaker 5 (01:39):
I feel to be a dream Ville Yeah, it feel great.
This is my first one school. Yeah, it's my first one.
I heard that it might be the last Dreamville Fest.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Hearing, I was like, Man, ain't no where in the
world they say that to get people out.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
That what it is. It worked it out, So that's
why I'm already. I decided to come through. And it's
good because I knew the networking was gonna be on ten.
You hear.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
As soon as I walk up in here, I see
my brother. It's literally like my brother in battle, you
know what I mean. We're on the same team fighting
in Guard's army. And then I meet the beautiful ladies
from Poor Mindes.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
I'm super familiar, you hear.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
So, yeah, y'all finally get the link with y'all. That's
what it's all about.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
I'm not performing, yeah, love.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
Some people in the industry, they only pull up somewhere
if they getting paid for it, and I ain't them
to know it's sometime the most valuable experiences you're gonna have.
I ain't gonna pay you a dime up front, but
on the back end, because of them seeds that you plant,
it's gonna pay ten times what you could have got.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
I want to dive right into it because you you there,
and I want you to stay there, possibly one because
he right down. We all want to know, like what
made you take that route? You know what I'm saying, Like,
you're not calling rappers out, you are also saying you're
calling them out for what they're saying for what are
their influencing you get? You know what I'm saying, letting
(03:03):
them know their power of being an influence, Like why
did you take that route?
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Man? Because all these rappers claim they believe in God.
You heard me.
Speaker 5 (03:11):
So if you claim you believe in God, then you
gotta say, okay, I.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Believe God's word.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
And God's word literally says in Proverbs eighteen and twenty one,
there's life and death in the power.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Of that tongue. You heard me.
Speaker 5 (03:26):
It is so the words that we speaking, the words
that were putting out there making songs be going platinum off.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Of going triple platinum off of these words.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
If we glorifying murder, glorifying drug dealing, glorifying being a
trap of drilling, you heard me, glorifying disrespecting women, how
does that show that you truly believe in God? Like
how it's a direct contradiction. It ain't hip hop. I
call it hipocritical hop. And that's the name of my
new album, hippocritical hop. You heard me, because that's what
(03:55):
the industry to turn to.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yeah at DC, Yeah, you know how the past did
somebody in what sweat?
Speaker 6 (04:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (04:04):
Yeah, So that's why, brother, I mean, on this stage
right here, raise your hand. If you done lost the
loved one of the gun violence, raise your hand.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
I feel like I'm in.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Come on, man, raise your hand.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
Got a loved one or close friend that's in jail
right now?
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Raise your hand. You see what I'm saying? Like that,
I got listen, y'all.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
This ain't rare no more. This is the norm in
our community. And we became complicit with that being normal. Man, murder, destruction, death,
jail time. That shouldn't be normal, right, That shouldn't be normal.
So I'm in the hip hop to just say hey,
I love you, I love you, I love you such and.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Such, I love you such and such.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
But we can do better because y'all going home to
gated communities.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Y'all kids is in private school.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
But when you get on these songs, you want to
pause in the minds of somebody else kids, what you're
talking about?
Speaker 4 (04:51):
That an't fair? That ain't gangster.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
White Man Joe walked by because he's like, who's disturbing
the objective?
Speaker 4 (04:57):
He heard what you was saying. He's like, we want
them to do the opposite. Literally, you're talking that talk.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yeah, but like I want to I want I want
you to die because I want you to get into
the story you gave me. Bro when when you said
that you wasn't a rapper, you was fred O Bang's
middle school teacher, like.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
Streak, Yeah, yeah, before before d one, I was mister
Augustine right here, yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
Period.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
So I was teaching middle school. I'm from New Orleans.
I was in bad he that believe that believe that.
So I was in Baton Rouge Louis and the teaching
middle school. And while I'm teaching middle school, I'm trying
to teach them multiplication division and they having trouble learning
the math that I'm teaching them. But they know all
the little Boosie lyrics, all Kevin Gates's lyrics.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
You heard me, all Lil Wayne lyrics.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
So I'm like, hold on, man, hip hop is.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
A better teacher than school is at this point.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
So if I really want to make a difference in
this world, maybe I need to be in hip hop
and have the heart of a teacher. But the platform
of a rapper, you heard me, And that's when I
became d one and I.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Saw teach your platform of a rapper?
Speaker 5 (05:59):
Come on, man, that was so that's so, that's that's
what made me want to become a rapper professionally. And
it ain't no good, it's jib if I had to
make it by compromising all my morals. So the goal
was I gotta make it as a rapper, but I
gotta make it by standing on the same business I've
been standing on. So my motto is be real, be righteous,
be relevant you.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
So, are there any rappers that like really surprised you
as far as their reaction to what you're doing, Like
they were extremely supportive or extremely standoff ish?
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Uh, extremely supportive.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
I'm gonna just say I got upcoming collaborations with certain
people who from the outside looking at you'll be like, oh,
that don't go together, that it never works. So me
and BG got a song drop you heard me. It's
called My Enemies. I'm gonna send it to your DC
right after this.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
We're gonna hit me up like get back.
Speaker 6 (06:47):
It's gonna have a verse on it.
Speaker 5 (06:55):
And and and me and somebody else just collaborated from
my from my state that people and never expect.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
And I'm gonna just give y'all a little hint. Let
me see.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
S I. Oh, so y'all going crazy now, y'all get
ready for that. So I love these unexpected collaborations that
I could do with people.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
You heard me. Me and Juvenile got something coming.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
So I'm just big on my state in Louisiana seeing that,
like dang, like you could be a man of God
and you can still be authentically from this state that we.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Love so much.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
You heard me, And it don't have to be like, oh,
you either in the church or you in the streets,
like nah, some people is like I got gaard with
me everywhere I go, and.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
God want me to be in the streets.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
God just don't want me to be in the streets
doing what they glorifying in the streets.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
He wanted me to be in the streets on business.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
You heard me talk, man, So that's why you ain't
gonna just catch me isolating myself from people. Man, Like
I love the smile. I was a fan of this
dude for so many years. I got so many text
messages of me putting people on to him before we
ever met. So now that we're actually friends, just be like,
this is a god friendship. You heard this guard all
day because I saw he would make me laugh so hard.
(08:06):
But then also I knew I was like, dang, this
brother got a huge platform, and don't mind letting people know. Man,
I'm a believer. I'm gonna know that that right there.
I admire that type of stuff you feel.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
So I think that's good that what you do.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Sorry to me, areut you. It's good because I feel
like with having these platforms, a lot of people don't
realize you hold a responsibility to a certain extent.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Thank you, Thank you rappers.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
Be trying to act like it ain't my responsibility to
raise your kids.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
I just feed my family off of this.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
What you don't realize is the words that you're putting
out there. Man, we can all remember lyrics from our
favorite rap song from fifteen years ago right now. That's
how powerful music is. I can't remember a sermon from
fifteen years ago. I can't remember nothing my teachers told
me like a heart to heart talk fifteen years ago.
But I could wrap every Lil Wayne lyric from the
(08:57):
Call to One, the Call to two, the Carter three,
the Black is Hot lights out. You hear me like,
music is powerful. So when rappers act like I ain't
got no responsibility, I'm just doing this to make money
and then I'm going to live my life, that's selfish,
right in my opinion.
Speaker 7 (09:11):
So speaking of responsibility and startling back to your background
and education, could you tell us a little bit about
the class that you were teaching at university?
Speaker 6 (09:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (09:20):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're talking about the one I
teach now, yeah yeah yeah yeah. I thought, man, I
thought people really knew that. Like, I'm a teacher first
and foremost. So three years ago when I announced that
now I'm a college professor in addition to being a rapper,
a lot of people were surprised. But if you really
know my background, Like I told DC, I've been a
(09:41):
teacher since before all this, so not teaching on a
college level. They gave me the freedom to develop a class.
So the name of my class is the intersection of
hip hop and Social chain, Right, So my whole class
we talk about how hip hop can be used to
make the social conditions better in our community.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
You feel me? So it's a bl We talked never
Wednesday though, yes, e ever Wednesday. It wasn't university. It's
in Boston.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
That's fig.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
I fly from Atlanta up to Boston every week teach
and that fly back down that FI.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
That's amazing every week, don't yeats all right?
Speaker 7 (10:19):
Talking about practice?
Speaker 4 (10:20):
What you Yeah, we're trying to you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
It's cool because I really got like I was just
grading homework before I came out here in my student
what he was saying, Yeah, I was in my hotel.
I was grading their assignment. The last assignment that I
gave him was on uh we watched the Lil Wayne
interview where he was talking about his mental health. Right,
he did an interview with uh what's dual name? And man,
you will at you or something like that. The supposed
(10:43):
to do so Lil Wayne did an interview talking about
mental health and talking about how he shot himself when
he was younger because of his mental health he was
dealing with. We watched that in my class and we
did a whole lesson on the state of mental health
inside of hip hop. They said that seventy three percent
of artists, rap and singers deal with mental health issues.
(11:05):
So that just go to show you that although we shining,
we got jewelry, we got money, we're getting booked, a
lot of people hurting on the inside in this industry.
So man, like, that's why I like to ask DC
when I see them, how you doing off the mic.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
I don't care about I see your book, I see
your calendar.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
That's great, But we got to care about each other
as people, man, absolutely, because a lot of us struggling
and mental.
Speaker 6 (11:24):
Health is so important.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
And I don't know why as a community we shy
away from going to therapy, especially our black men.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Yeah, I mean, I'm I'm a firm believe that God
is the therapist, because with therapy, they'll.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Beat around the bush. Sometimes people need to get it out.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
When you're not at the house speaking and getting it
out and talking to the most high about it. Then
you're never really getting it off your chest. This will
be the first time you ever actually said it to
someone and now you're hearing it. But then they'll be.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Like, so why did you think like that?
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Then? What made you?
Speaker 6 (11:57):
It?
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Make you talk, it makes you get it out. Never
really find a solution. They help you find a solution.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Wow, that's true.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
I think it takes a lot of work.
Speaker 6 (12:07):
But I think y'all being black men who may you know,
go to church or talk about mental health because they
don't even feel like there's a safe space to talk
about that. So I think y'all having a big platform
and just opening up the conversation, they'll know like, hey,
yes I pray, Yes I go to church, Yes I
care about mental health. Just getting the conversation started right
(12:28):
you step.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
But see, it's the stigma of men is already strong.
So like how he said that, how you doing? We
tend to everybody know that, don't nobody care about your problems?
You need to already have it figured out. I think
men have to come have to come together as a
collective to have people they can go to who are
problems solvers. Yeah, like, hey, bro, how you feel about this.
(12:51):
I need to get it on my chair anyway, but
I need to make sure I'm thinking in the right direction.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
You feel what I'm.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Saying, because it ain't more so like you you talking
to a therapist about it. A lot of men just
ain't got nobody to talk to Pete.
Speaker 7 (13:04):
Yeah, I mean, and I think a lot of black
men don't want to accept either that it's okay to
not be okay. I feel like y'all feel like y'all
always have to have it all together, and you.
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Don't because if you feel weak, and if if the
wrong person see you in your in your time of weakness,
they'll never let you live that down. Some dudes, they
girls would throw that in their face. Boy, you was
crying when such and such happening. Boy you ain't that
you ain't and man, that stuff will stick with you forever.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
But it's more so like being in the army.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
We gotta be trained in condition to know that, okay,
there is a problem, but you have already been trained
to handle problems. So it's like being in the army.
You're trained that you may encounter a problem. You just
don't know when. Yeah, so you don't win two three months.
Oh it's nice because everything is looked under control until
(13:56):
the until happened. And then now you in the army, nigga,
it's time to use all the gadgets. That's so on
your your vest, your friends who are supposed to be
prayer warriors. Dude, you got my back. All right, let's
go together, let's pray together. Or that's Everything is an analogy,
(14:17):
but you break it down and you apply it how
you apply it.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
We're all emotionally and spiritually going through a battle even
when we leave our house, so we must be attacked
for whatever war that we may encounter. We may come
back home and be like, oh, that was a good day.
It was just that day that nothing happened. What about
tomorrow when now this is when you're gonna have to
apply all the knowledge and everything, apply it because it
(14:43):
don't it don't feed no purpose if nothing.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Is going on.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
Yeah, that's real. That's see what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (14:50):
Phil has been like your biggest obstacle in getting your
message out there.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
My eagle, really, yeah, my eagle.
Speaker 5 (14:59):
Yeah, because sometimes getting my message out there, I'm knowing
that I'll overthink stuff you feel me, I'll be in
my own head. I'll be like, man, I text such
and such to hop on the song. They ain't hit
me back. Man, they must not really rock with me. Man,
maybe what I'm doing ain't all that impactful after all.
Next thing, you know, I'll psych myself out of even
wanting to attempt to be the best version of me
(15:21):
that I can because I done told myself.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
Now you just David Man, you heard me like, yo, you.
Speaker 5 (15:25):
Little your little fifteen minutes of fame might be cooling
off now or da da da the devil will really
have me thinking I'm just averaging mediocre out cheer.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
You heard me?
Speaker 5 (15:34):
When God is like, boy, you chosen you, hear me
like your light shines so bright in other people eyes.
But if I'm looking for approval from the world constantly,
then every time I get that rejection, I'll be sitting
there like, dang, I'm not worthy of something. When God
is like, if you wasn't worthy, I wouldn't even allow
you to be on my gee. You feel me, and
you only got a limit your time down here, So
(15:56):
why are you gonna overthink all these little precious minute
you got or you're just gonna say it back.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
That ain't a rejection, that's a redirection. You heard me.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
Keep it moving, keep it going, keep it going, you
feel So that's just trying to get out my own
way with my ego.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
And to add on.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Top of that, I think I also have to be
instilled in us that every thought that come across in
our head is not us. A lot of people don't
know what to decipher, like, oh, that's not me.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Every time somebody thinks something crazy, they're like, why am.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
I thinking that I must be crazy?
Speaker 3 (16:27):
You're like, hey, look, you're gonna drive yourself right then,
because you have to let the spirit get in control.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
That's not you.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
And once you realize that ain't me, you will have
something to lean on when the trum's trying to kick in.
Speaker 5 (16:43):
What what did y'all just catch this man saying every
voce we hear in our head that ain't even us.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
You heard me?
Speaker 3 (16:50):
That's powerful because the enemy play playground is confusion. So
when you confused, just like you said, when all I'm
hearing is the enemy was just it was only and
you were like, am I really?
Speaker 4 (17:01):
Am I really? They're not fucking with me?
Speaker 3 (17:04):
No, that is the enemy telling you stuff and you're
starting to believe it. Yeah, And once you start to
believe it, it becomes really a lot of us create false.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
And narratives in our head. Is faith? Yeah, literally, all
them shit's faint, literally yo.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Yeah, the one that's not official, the one that does
not coming from the most high.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (17:22):
May those are the thoughts that you don't need to
water and pay attention to. Now when you do have
your good thoughts, those are the ones you're supposed to
really nourish, and those are the seeds that are supposed
to go.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
And the other thing is this. If it's not ego,
it's money.
Speaker 5 (17:35):
And I'll tell you this because there was a time
in my life where I was like, man, if I
could ever have one hundred thousand dollars, boy, like that'd
be crazy because nobody in my family ever had six
figures all there once.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
So it made six figures right.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
Then it's like you get there and you get that,
and then it'd be like, oh, this ain't nearly enough.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
Hold on, man, we gotta we gotta bump this thing.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
I need five hundred kick Bam, you hit that go man,
I need a am you heard me, bam. And you
realize that there's never a point if we don't get
our mind in check.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Money will always be.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
Something where it's like, all right, I'm dangling this amount
over your head. You grind so hard to get to that,
and then it's like, oh, I done moved up here.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
Now you know what I'm saying. Now I'm dangling that amount.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
And if we allow money to be a destination that
we're chasing as opposed to a tool that we're using,
then we'll be slaves to that money for our entire life.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Literally.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
And if you're a slave to money, then you serving money.
You can't be serving God. You can't have two masters.
And as black people, we always gonna have an excuse.
We always gonna be able to say, well, man, I
gotta get this bag because my family ain't never have it.
All of us got that excuse if we want to
say that. I don't think none of us came from
a silver spoon, right, But we got to get to
the point to where we say, I'm not gonna lean
(18:45):
on that as a crutch. I'm gonna realize that there's
a healthy, balanced way to be about my bag. But
the real bag, the real bag is building a generation.
Speaker 4 (18:54):
You hear men.
Speaker 5 (18:55):
That's what a real bad we need to be chased,
breaking down word.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
That's already recreating.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
The whole new meeting.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
What we got it for Capellar ship don't mean what.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
It means no more. What we thought is now I
gonna get a bag with.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
The grocery store.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
I am building for the generation, be.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
All that generation. Yeah, that's facts though.
Speaker 5 (19:22):
Man.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
So my new single Gangster is out right now. You
heard talk.
Speaker 5 (19:26):
Yeah, Gangster stand for growing and nurturing, gifts, serving almighty.
That song going crazy online like people, people loving it.
The merchants out. You hear me it said Gangster on
the front. People be like, hold on, d what I
thought you was?
Speaker 4 (19:37):
Wait?
Speaker 5 (19:37):
Wait then they see the bank. Oh all right, that's
what gangster means, you feel me? So that we got
the remix coming soon. When it's gonna drop? When when
this when it's gonna drop?

Betwood is.
Speaker 3 (19:50):

Speaker 5 (19:57):
So the remix we're boosty you and the remike the
Gangster remans with Booster. Yeah, depending on where y'all see this.
It mail may not be out already, but shout out
to boost man that dude. We just laugh every time
we see each other cause we know it's so hard where.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
We come from. I promise it's so hard where we
come from.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
And the fact that now we see each other, we
like boy life good boy, like we blessing and we
don't forget who our blessings come from. So Ye had
a new album that I'm dropping this called Hypocritical Hop,
So get ready for that too.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
And that's it.
Speaker 5 (20:27):
Man. I'm just real grateful for y'all. You know what
I mean, because yeah, man, like we all in this
thing together. Ain't no competition, It's just it's just collaboration,
you see what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (20:36):
And I think it's good to see, Like I said,
black people just in general, man and woman use our
platform to spread positivity and for them to see somebody
who is in the position that you're in and still
speaking about God, mental health and all those positive things.
I think that's amazing what you're doing because a lot
of people are scared to talk about it because they
feel like it's not relatable or it's.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Not We're definitely relatable, not women that we got to
make it cool. We gotta make cool, and we got to.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Make people feel comfortable being themselves because I guarantee you
ninety nine percent of black people are not going home
at night and praying to the devil. I guarantee you
it or not you like most people are out here
like yeah, man, absolutely, I know that it is a
higher power.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
Then whether or not they feel like, well, that's.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
Jesus, that's okay, that's this that some people trying to
figure it out, but they can't figure it out if
they don't have real life examples they're showing them like, look, man,
I'm a believer and I'm confident about who I believe
in and what I believe in.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
You feel me, so.
Speaker 6 (21:35):
That that rights who has real influence and who don't.
Speaker 4 (21:39):
And once you realize really live and who you.
Speaker 6 (21:41):
Are and yourself and people reject you, then it's like
who really are you? Then?
Speaker 2 (21:45):
And once like God got you can't nobody to stop you.
Speaker 7 (21:49):
Be afright to use your platform to promote him and
to let people know what He's dead in your life.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
Because if you know that God is truly the distributor
of the blessing, uh huh, then you're gonna be like man,
if you you and you don't like.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
Me, I ain't even stress from your because everything that
we have is because of him, not because of us.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
But people forget this.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Okay, don't get that's all man.
Speaker 4 (22:22):
I'm gonna say that everywhere we go.
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Everywhere we go, y'all, we better go there, and we
better be the thermostat, not the phenometer.
Speaker 4 (22:30):
We're gonna set the temperature wherever we go.
Speaker 5 (22:32):
We didn't turn backwoods and front Woods into a whole guards.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
You know what I'm saying. Out getting high.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
With me, you are out here being less.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
When you get high, we are tapping the most hot
because there is power.
