Speaker 1 (02:06):
Specific the specific subject.

Speaker 4 (02:15):
But yeah, man, it is what it is, man, you
know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (02:19):
And you know, for us to be able to come together,
you know, after all this time and make that happen,
and they're not only that man, Like you know, they
done reached out to us for the No Limit Cash
Money tour. Many about that, you know, like man, we
I'm man, let's shake bag like.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Bag.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
Yeah, they going heard about a documentary Magnoliah.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, like it's a lot of opportunities that
presented itself. But yeah, I was on the phone with
with with with ag yesterday. You know what I'm saying
talking about you know what I mean a bag man, Yeah,
like we're gonna we're gonna close that out and make
that happen.
Speaker 6 (03:02):
And there were definitely gonna hit New Orleans because you
know people was mad.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Yeah yeah, but you know it's complex kind of right,
you know what I mean. So you know, I think
if it would have been in New Orleans, it would
have been, Yeah, it would have been.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Could it have happened?
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Because they were saying that it couldn't happen because maybe
the voloc I was like nah.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Nah, no, it would have been just as it would
have been just as fun and and and you know,
just as incredible as it was in Las Vegas, man,
But I think you know that it should have been
in New Orleans. But you know, it happened. So now
that they see, you know that that it could happen
on a level to where it ain't no BS involved,
(03:44):
you know what I mean, Now we could you know, move.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
On and make things happen on another level. So it's all, Look,
why wasn't Wayne there? That's the question everybody.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I talked the Wayne yesterday, man, and and I talked
the Wayne in the morning before, right, you know what
I mean, the morning before the versus and you know
sure it wasn't feeling good man, you know what I mean.
So you know, because he had a concert that dress
this same night and he canceled that as well, you
know what I mean. And Swiss was you know, even
(04:16):
hurt behind it, right, you know what I mean, because
for real, for real, that's the reason Swiss pulled the
trigger on it, you know what I mean, Because Wayne,
you know you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Yeah, like you know right, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
He got muscled, right, So I think it was you know,
shut it wasn't feeling good because he definitely was supposed
to be there, you know what I mean. So you know,
he he he told me that, you know, he wasn't
feeling good and you know he had to go to
the hospital or something.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
Like that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
So you know, people be thinking that it was you know, whatever,
whatever whatever. But at the end of the day, like
I told him, Man, Wayne's spring chickens no more, man,
you know what I mean. So you know, you gotta
make sure and you're healthy, and you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (05:01):

Speaker 3 (05:04):
You've been running thirty thirty five years strong. You know
what I'm saying, So you gotta make sure, you know,
you get your resting. I think that was the reason
that you know, Shorty wasn't there. He was dealing with
some personal issue.
Speaker 6 (05:16):
And we'll get the sea Wayne on the tour if
the tour happens with no limits Wayne.

don't before on what Shorty beyond, you know, what I'm saying.

But yeah, I was I was, Yeah, Yeah, I was him,
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Yeah, in the documentary after all that.
Speaker 6 (12:20):
In the documentary, right, you talk about how hard it
is to stay relevant while you're locked up in your
way for the amount of time that you did.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Did you think it was over for you while you
were did? I did?
Speaker 4 (12:29):
I did?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Like when when the judge gave me them fourteen years, Like,
you know, it's hard to stay relevant, and it's rep
thing for for for a month, you know, six months
a year.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
If you ain't really yea, it's not for a vicious
of violent crime.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
You know.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
I didn't give fourteen years for a violent gun man
guns and obstructing justice. I really got ten years for
the gun, fourteen years for the injustice, you know what
I mean. But you know when I got them fourteen years,
I was like, damn as old, you know what I'm saying,
my career with like I couldn't see the end, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
And then you know, social.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Media started popping and Instagram started popping, and you know
it was ways to you know, stay relevant, you know,
through social media that really helped me, you know, staying
tuned with the fans and things of that nature.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
And yeah, man, I'm back.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
And not only that, I was attached to a brand
you know that stay relevant you know throughout that time,
you know what I mean. Because at the end of
the yeah, absolutely, like Stunner was there, Like you know
what I'm saying, Yeah, Nah, Stunner was there. You know,
Weezer was shouting me out and you know, the whole
gang or whatever whatever. But if it wasn't for if
(13:47):
it wasn't you know, for for social media, who knows,
you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (13:52):
Like, because dad man, yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:57):
Jay z Want said that if everybody in your clok
is rich, your colokies, get nobody your fault because everybody
will be each other's crutches.
Speaker 4 (14:02):
I would think even with.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Fourteen years no fact, Wayne Wayne became Wayne in those
people right right, they was all still in the mix,
they were still.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
In the mix and not not only that though, like
you know, at the end of the day, I can't
tell my story without telling their stories, right, you know,
Juvet can't tell his story without telling my story. Wayne
can't tell his story, you know, without telling my stories.
So you know, we all joined at the hip, whether
we like it or not, you know what I mean,
(14:33):
Like our legacies are all you know what I mean,
Like like one, you.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Know what I'm saying. So you know that I think
that benefited me too.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Now what's your release?
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Is it true that every lyric that you rat now
or right now you have to send them for approval.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
So I have to turn it over to my pill
you know what I mean, Like they don't get to
approve because when I first came home or the when
I did the album with Guchi Man, when I first
came home and me and wapped it a tape together, right,
and they tried to violate me and send me back to.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Jail for that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
And I was like damn, like you know, like what's up,
Like like I ain't did nothing but what I've been doing,
you know what I mean. So they were saying that
they didn't want me doing nothing pertaining to entertainment or
nothing pertaining to music that I could make money off of,
(15:31):
you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
So it was like, damn, like yo, they like, I don't.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
I didn't understand it, and that's why I thought it
exactly like I've been doing this since I was thirteen
years old, like, and you trying to send me back
to jail for just simply trying to.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
Make a living, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
So the judge agreed with me and said it was
a violation of my freedom of speech, you know what
I mean. But she did say that I had to
turn over the list ricks to my probation officers before
I made them available to the public, but she don't
have to approve of them or nothing.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
But I still be having to just you know, be
mindful of what I say and how I said.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
You know, you can't put this out.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
Nah, they ain't gonna lie or they've been. They've been.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
They've been working with me, like, they've been giving me
my space and letting me make it. And I got
a good po man like, and I ain't got nothing
but like two months left, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
I haven't done everything I'm supposed to do the right way.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
You know, I ain't feel no drugs as I did
all my or my my community service. You know, I
didn't completed all the programs you know that they, you know,
wanted me to complete. Like so everything is everything, man,
And and I'm grateful.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
They want you to drop a gospel ex.
Speaker 3 (16:58):

want me rapping about guns. They didn't want me rapping
about snitches. You know, they didn't want me rapping bout

living off, like my whole career. Like and I'm like,

you know, the.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Specific the specific subject.

Right, but you know it's you know what I'm saying,
it's some people that died, right, you know what I'm

Speaker 4 (02:15):
But yeah, man, it is what it is, man, you

Speaker 3 (02:19):
And you know, for us to be able to come together,
you know, after all this time and make that happen,
and they're not only that man, Like you know, they

Money tour. Many about that, you know, like man, we
I'm man, let's shake bag like.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Bag.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
Yeah, they going heard about a documentary Magnoliah.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, like it's a lot of opportunities that
presented itself. But yeah, I was on the phone with
with with with ag yesterday. You know what I'm saying
talking about you know what I mean a bag man, Yeah,
like we're gonna we're gonna close that out and make
that happen.
Speaker 6 (03:02):
And there were definitely gonna hit New Orleans because you
know people was mad.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Yeah yeah, but you know it's complex kind of right,
you know what I mean. So you know, I think
if it would have been in New Orleans, it would
have been, Yeah, it would have been.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Could it have happened?
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Because they were saying that it couldn't happen because maybe
the voloc I was like nah.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Nah, no, it would have been just as it would
have been just as fun and and and you know,
just as incredible as it was in Las Vegas, man,
But I think you know that it should have been
in New Orleans. But you know, it happened. So now
that they see, you know that that it could happen
on a level to where it ain't no BS involved,
(03:44):
you know what I mean, Now we could you know, move.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
On and make things happen on another level. So it's all, Look,
why wasn't Wayne there? That's the question everybody.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I talked the Wayne yesterday, man, and and I talked
the Wayne in the morning before, right, you know what
I mean, the morning before the versus and you know
sure it wasn't feeling good man, you know what I mean.
So you know, because he had a concert that dress
this same night and he canceled that as well, you
know what I mean. And Swiss was you know, even
(04:16):
hurt behind it, right, you know what I mean, because
for real, for real, that's the reason Swiss pulled the
trigger on it, you know what I mean, Because Wayne,
you know you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Yeah, like you know right, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
He got muscled, right, So I think it was you know,
shut it wasn't feeling good because he definitely was supposed
to be there, you know what I mean. So you know,
he he he told me that, you know, he wasn't
feeling good and you know he had to go to
the hospital or something.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
Like that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
So you know, people be thinking that it was you know, whatever,
whatever whatever. But at the end of the day, like
I told him, Man, Wayne's spring chickens no more, man,
you know what I mean. So you know, you gotta
make sure and you're healthy, and you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (05:01):

Speaker 3 (05:04):
You've been running thirty thirty five years strong. You know
what I'm saying, So you gotta make sure, you know,
you get your resting. I think that was the reason
that you know, Shorty wasn't there. He was dealing with
some personal issue.
Speaker 6 (05:16):
And we'll get the sea Wayne on the tour if
the tour happens with no limits Wayne.
Speaker 3 (05:21):

don't before on what Shorty beyond, you know, what I'm saying.
So you know, I would love to see him out
there with us, you know what I'm saying, and on

In the documentary, right, you talk about how hard it
is to stay relevant while you're locked up in your
way for the amount of time that you did.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Did you think it was over for you while you
were did? I did?
Speaker 4 (12:29):
I did?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Like when when the judge gave me them fourteen years, Like,
you know, it's hard to stay relevant, and it's rep
thing for for for a month, you know, six months
a year.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
If you ain't really yea, it's not for a vicious
of violent crime.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
You know.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
I didn't give fourteen years for a violent gun man
guns and obstructing justice. I really got ten years for
the gun, fourteen years for the injustice, you know what
I mean. But you know when I got them fourteen years,
I was like, damn as old, you know what I'm saying,
my career with like I couldn't see the end, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
And then you know, social.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Media started popping and Instagram started popping, and you know
it was ways to you know, stay relevant, you know,
through social media that really helped me, you know, staying
tuned with the fans and things of that nature.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
And yeah, man, I'm back.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
And not only that, I was attached to a brand
you know that stay relevant you know throughout that time,
you know what I mean. Because at the end of
the yeah, absolutely, like Stunner was there, Like you know
what I'm saying, Yeah, Nah, Stunner was there. You know,
Weezer was shouting me out and you know, the whole
gang or whatever whatever. But if it wasn't for if
(13:47):
it wasn't you know, for for social media, who knows,
you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (13:52):
Like, because dad man, yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:57):
Jay z Want said that if everybody in your clok
is rich, your colokies, get nobody your fault because everybody
will be each other's crutches.
Speaker 4 (14:02):
I would think even with.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Fourteen years no fact, Wayne Wayne became Wayne in those
people right right, they was all still in the mix,
they were still.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
In the mix and not not only that though, like
you know, at the end of the day, I can't
tell my story without telling their stories, right, you know,
Juvet can't tell his story without telling my story. Wayne
can't tell his story, you know, without telling my stories.
So you know, we all joined at the hip, whether
we like it or not, you know what I mean,
(14:33):
Like our legacies are all you know what I mean,
Like like one, you.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Know what I'm saying. So you know that I think
that benefited me too.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Now what's your release?
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Is it true that every lyric that you rat now
or right now you have to send them for approval.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
So I have to turn it over to my pill
you know what I mean, Like they don't get to
approve because when I first came home or the when
I did the album with Guchi Man, when I first
came home and me and wapped it a tape together, right,
and they tried to violate me and send me back to.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Jail for that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
And I was like damn, like you know, like what's up,
Like like I ain't did nothing but what I've been doing,
you know what I mean. So they were saying that
they didn't want me doing nothing pertaining to entertainment or
nothing pertaining to music that I could make money off of,
(15:31):
you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
So it was like, damn, like yo, they like, I don't.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
I didn't understand it, and that's why I thought it
exactly like I've been doing this since I was thirteen
years old, like, and you trying to send me back
to jail for just simply trying to.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
Make a living, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
So the judge agreed with me and said it was
a violation of my freedom of speech, you know what
I mean. But she did say that I had to
turn over the list ricks to my probation officers before
I made them available to the public, but she don't
have to approve of them or nothing.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
But I still be having to just you know, be
mindful of what I say and how I said.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
You know, you can't put this out.
