Yeah, I could definitely.
Speaker 5 (02:05):
The first the first fifty, like before Dre, like these mixtapes,
I was like New York, but then got him on
d Got with those beats dra Got. Yeah, that's the
one that's the that's the man right there. He beat
from Doctor Dre.

them from doctor.
Speaker 5 (02:22):
I got one with uh I always wrapped to big
egos and with Scott's storching it. And I actually went
to Scott Storch's house and he made me the beat
and that's Lord, forgive me from my sins on the number.
It's the first song on can't get right and he
remade it with a problem from scratch for me.
Speaker 6 (02:40):
So why problem?
Speaker 5 (02:42):
Jason shout out to Dre too like he stayed, he
he'd be sending me his love through through you know
other artists.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
You know.
Speaker 7 (02:49):
Yeah, So to know that he tapped in with and
he was an inspiration for you, it's good to know that.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Huh, Yeah, he was in inspirit. But you know what,
I want to earn it.
Speaker 6 (02:57):
I don't.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
I don't. I don't want to.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
I don't want nobody to give me no handout. I
want to, you know, earn it. I never know nobody
write my lyrics. But I'm getting better and it feels
better because that's my that's my stuff. I never paid
for feature.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
I want. I want to earn it. When when it's.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Dre's time to come give me a beat or we
work I'm gonna get it. I'm gonna get it the
right way.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Hey man, you don't really hear people trying to take
that approach to tough like that.
Speaker 6 (03:19):
But that's dope that you still got that old school worker.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
Yeah, you gotta earn it, man, You gotta earn that.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Man.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
How you against the rapper and you can't even go
back to your hood? You know what I'm saying. You
gotta be you gotta everything, gotta be authentic.
Speaker 7 (03:33):
You saying some ship then, yeah, a lot of them
they can't get no shoes out there.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
You want to be the hood? Gotta say that you good? Yeah,
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
But if man, you was part of one of the
biggest projects of the year on the West and historical
probably of all time, probably in the West.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
You know the way that run came as well, that
wann't really like the West really, you know, came together.
You gotta hoof on there. You got a blood of crib,
you know, like he got a gang member and you
know we made that album, and we made that album
and uh, you know we all went platinum.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
You know, I was just in jail.
Speaker 5 (04:11):
Everybody in that album was just sitting in jail, you know,
all gang members. But you know Kate, he had his
ear chapped in heat to the streets of l A.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
You know he really is.
Speaker 7 (04:20):
And yeah, I say this man for somebody who never
heard of you. But I think once you start rapping
on the song, like bro, who.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
The fuck it is?
Speaker 7 (04:28):
Like, it'll make you like like how you just came in.
You came in with that confidence on the motherfucker?
Speaker 4 (04:35):
Yeah? What else?
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Why these says outside without group post in the hood
will never ever be the same. You know, it's god
damn shame that you bang you Yeah, yeah, but it's
it's funny on that litric group post, like a group
post with the hummies, like the hood would never be
the same because some of them get life, some of
them beacy up, some of them die.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (04:59):
So you'll never get it, you know. But I knew
what it was when I signed up for it, you know.
But I'm putting my hood on more by doing this,
you know, yeah, checking a different approach with it. I'm
gonna keep Vonnie and I'm gonna bust down all my homeboys,
whether I don't see how iron them or not. How
my buzz down in my homies ain't so I'm a
bust them all down. Yeah, And I look at it
(05:19):
that way. How's my rod dog? And now I have a
buzz down, But I'm all busted down.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
You know. You gotta bust down the homie too.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Man, this is your first beat to it's my first
beach here award. This is it's a blessing.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
I really at it, man, Like, is this something being
from the city.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
Yeah, it's cool, man, you know, it's it's it's I
feel I feel actually it's nothing but black people, right,
and I feel good, Like I feel like I'm in
I'm I'm embraced, you know, And that's that's a beautiful thing.
That's part of bridging the gap, breaking the barrier in
l A. You know, let me ask you this.
Speaker 6 (05:56):
Did you ever feel like it wouldn't be that though?
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Yeah, when I was in prison. When I was in prison,
jail in LA segregates you from the jump. So you
go to Joe in LA. The cops right away say
you in that tank.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
You're black. You in that tank. So that's they put
that's what they put in your head.
Speaker 5 (06:16):
And then the gangs, you're Mexican, you get in a
Mexican game, you black, you crip her blood, and then
that's all the culture is but for them to mix.
And I'm the only I'm probably one of the only
ones that I don't. I don't say the N word.
You know, nowadays you get a lot of Latino kids
and say that. I don't agree with that. I think
that'sh is I think that's.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Turned in tune in your music. When I saw you say.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
That on the Energy, Yeah, I don't play that ship.

a bad happy with a lot of people. But you're
not gonna go say that with the big homie on
the yard and talk like that.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
So but you know the other side of it, so
it's like it's a respect they're respectful, Yeah, very respectful,
and you know it's not me and that hopeful the
other I could make a difference with my people to

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
