Hey, check it out. It's a team apparel 617 and a
team clothing.com. That's where you can go check
out all the leg and sets. Everything's up there, all the
T-shirts, the AST T-shirts. But I'm gonna let y'all know a
secret. Ato is outside.
We selling merch back of the truck anyway, I'm going selling
(00:20):
merch. So the new drop that I got, it
all went out the back of the truck.
I didn't even go to the Internet.
Let. Me.
Just shout out to everybody. I don't want to forget nobody's
name. So I'm just say the 18 family,
everybody I've been rocking out with for the last six months,
three months or so. If you help me to get where I
need to be in some sort of fashion away, I just want to
(00:43):
shout you out and I want to thank you.
If you reposted something that Idid, I want to shout you out.
It's lit. So yo, let's keep positive, stay
focused. 2025 we still at in thebeginning of the summer.
Let's keep it moving. Let's keep that motion going.
Everybody that's rolling with meoutside tonight.
What's the reason or what's the thing that started you out with
(01:04):
a team apparel? Like where'd the name come from?
So a team came basically. It was like I used to watch the
Mr. T show. I don't know if y'all a little
younger, but Mr. T, he was the man.
He had his whole team surroundedby him and he led the way.
You know what I'm saying? He saved the day, you know what
I'm saying? And with me, that's how I feel I
am. I feel like I'm not a hero, but
(01:26):
I feel like God put me on this earth for a reason.
Like yo, so, so many times. I shouldn't be here, I'm here.
So you know, I used to question that like you ain't supposed to
be here, but you are. If I mean, I do believe that we
go through situations to help our minds evolve and it helps
with your troubleshooting, right?
Your trouble solutions where yougoing through shit?
(01:48):
All right. So for example, most men feel
like they're worthless or not even worth it.
Most men are having bad days or bad attitudes because it broke
right. I personally believe *** we have
an attitude when you see dudes that always be having stink
attitudes in a bad mood because *** got no money but.
I just want to jump in and say this.
Right. Yeah, yeah.
Listen, guys, everybody around the world, you can't.
(02:10):
You don't have to have money. Money's energy, your energy, you
think so the energy that you putout into life is the energy that
you're going to receive. And the reason why I believe
that because I've been broke, but I always had good energy.
So everybody still rock with me?He was a broke *** with good
energy. Right.
They're clap in front of my face, but yo, they're clap in
(02:33):
front of my face and they'll be like, yo, put me on.
They'll be like, yeah, I got you, I got you, I got you.
Why do? You think that is though?
Because you know, people don't want you to see you get ahead of
them. It sucks like that.
And the people. Is it people or black people?
It's everybody, man. OK, Yeah, it's.
Everybody, I want to see if you go get that trick question.
Yeah, it's everybody, man, whether they Dominican, Puerto
Rican is whatever meant. There's so many cultural divided
(02:57):
lines from ethnicity segregated,but is my biggest supporters
have come outside of my community.
That's what I can say. Shout out to Antonio sci-fi
pizza for always supporting me. You know what I'm saying?
Shout out to everybody that has been holding me down, and it's
been surprising because it's notbeen my own people.
(03:17):
But why is it surprising? Is that based?
Is that based off your expectations for people?
No, you know what I expected wasthe people I grew up with to
support me 100%. So what I learned?
You can't set expectations on nobody.
The moment you start setting expectations, that's when you go
downhill. You think so?
Yeah, because you'll be disappointed.
Now you get discouraged because you're like, my peoples ain't
(03:39):
buying it, my family ain't buying it.
But it's not for them to buy. It's for people around the world
to support me globally, respect me, and then my family fall on
board. Speaking of support, do you
believe that people support you because they want to, or they
support you because other peopleare supporting you?
It goes both ways. Tell me which way.
So people support you because other people support you, True.
(04:01):
Because then they know you got emotion, everybody.
I think it's the strangers that support you.
When the strangers support you and people see that shit, that
makes them want to support. You, that's definitely true.
That's definitely true. Because when I was in Miami,
like I told you, I was down in Miami by myself and like I was
talking to a lot of people, man,and some people turned their
back on me and I'm damn, I'm started laughing.
(04:21):
I'm like damn. Down there or up here?
Down there in Miami man, you know so and then I met this dude
man in Miami at the club man andum yo, it was like a beautiful
relationship because he started introduced me to people because
he's seeing where I was heading.So if you ain't checked out my
video in Miami, go check that out.
A team apparel 617 man, the videos dope is live is lit.
(04:42):
It's a lifestyle. You know what I'm saying?
And I'm not trying to brag. I'm not trying to Bros.
I just want everybody know that a team is just not a clothing
brand. It's a lifestyle.
It's a way that I want to live. It's the way that I live and
everybody around me, I want themto live the same way.
It's it's lit. Fine, that's fine.
So I so tell me like, are you from Boston?
(05:03):
You from the state you from out of state?
Where you from like not known hood type shit like you grew up
in Boston at all, Like you from here, you born and raised or you
you you import or implant? I don't want to say import
because that's going to make yousound like.
One of the immigrants, it's, it's lit.
You already know man might be a clone.
On the oh shit, that's a fact. They asked me that one time.
(05:25):
It was like a friend of mine. She's like how you everywhere at
one time. I said because I'm ambitious and
I'm determined. I want to be successful, so I'm
going to be everywhere I need. To be you don't turn that shit
off. You don't turn that Monica shit
off where like you, you know, when you see like the
infomercials and always telling you something, you don't seem to
turn yours off. So it's a good thing that you
always have this persona of likeyou said, being positive.
(05:48):
So when shorty's asked you like yo, how you there and how you
there, it's like yo, because I'mstriving to be great, right?
And the average person doesn't realize that to be great, you're
going to lose out on time, right?
Because time is the biggest gamble in my opinion, that
you're always going to bet on, right?
Because for example, you might spend three to five years with
(06:09):
18 clothes and it might not feellike it's taking off the way you
want it to, right? But maybe in year 6, year 7,
when it takes off, right? Because it takes time for people
to get accustomed to things. Shit, it took time for you to
get accustomed to the podcast, bro.
When we started the podcast, ***wasn't feeling it at first
because he was like a podcast. The fuck is that?
And I'm like, y'all *** are justold.
Y'all don't get it. Like radio's dying.
(06:31):
Nobody wants to listen to radio because it's PC conversations,
you know what I mean? And I don't want to give, I
don't want you to always give methe politically correct.
I want you to tell me how, how you truly feel and what you
truly believe versus the the right answer, right?
Because I believe that humans, not even humans, just adults,
not even adults, people, people,people can tell the difference
(06:53):
between some bullshit and some real shit, right?
So how you give your answers, the way you give your answers,
people pay attention to that. And if it doesn't feel like it's
genuine or just realistic, *** will just fade real quick to
black. They won't fuck with your shit
at all because they're like all this *** scripted like we've had
guests where we know where like show and I will be like you talk
to this person. It's a good look, but it's going
(07:13):
to be mad PC shit, right? Meaning it'll challenge us,
it'll challenge us to be different and not be out of our
comfort zone, but more so step in the Gray area, right?
We live in the Gray area. A lot of times we live in the
straightforward direct era at times.
You got to live in the Gray area, right?
We don't never want to live in the PC era because that's what
(07:34):
we not preach against, but we speak against, right?
So we don't ever, we don't ever want to be hypocritical in that,
in that moment, we're going to live in the Gray area where
we'll talk about some shit that they want to talk about, but we
might also throw some, some, youknow, left turns in there.
Not to not to be like salacious,but to be like, you know, like,
all right, for example, like with Mayor Wu, like we're not
(07:55):
going to ask her about the campaigns and shit all the time.
We're going to ask her like, yo,how's it?
How's it, you know, going to theWest Indian parade?
How is it working with black people on your staff?
Because that City Hall is predominantly white.
Growing up, it was always predominantly white.
If you look at Mayor Menino staff, all that shit,
everybody's staff was predominantly white and her
cabinet is like majority. Like I think it's very diverse.
(08:17):
Like it's brown skinned white people don't matter.
But those are the things like ask her instead of asking her
like, yo, you know, how'd you meet your husband?
Like right. Like, to me, it's not corny, but
it's not the shit that people onour demo want to hear you.
Know what I mean? This ain't the next 60.
Minutes. No, we don't want that shit.
I don't want no boring shit. Like we're going to like even
like now, like we're going to get our spiel out the way, which
is like, all right, we're going to talk about Ato 18.
(08:39):
We're going to talk about where you're from and then you get
into like just other conversations, just other
banter. Because when you Give your
opinion on the things, it let's people know if they can rock
with you or not. True.
You could say some wild shit that I might not agree with, but
other people like. That's exactly how I feel.
Yes, Sir. For example, how you feel about
Daddy's trial? Did he do it?
(09:00):
Did he not? Did he do it?
Did he not? You see?
He got off. Right.
And if he did it, if he didn't do it, one thing's for sure, two
things. They did it.
They said he didn't. You know that, right?
They said he did it. Two out of five, two out of
five, two out of five. So he he beat the Rico charge,
OK. It's it's it's the.
Rico charge would have gave him almost life, maybe 30 years
right by itself. He beat that charge and he beat
(09:21):
the sex trafficking. Only thing he got was
prostitution so they said based on that the maximus 10 years but
this is a first time offender which means he has no record.
Probation. Probation.
Exactly. That's a win.
That's a win for Diddy. He lost a rock, though he lost a
rock. He lost a rock.
Hey, but look. He lost de Leon he.
(09:42):
Was trying to. Sue them, right?
Yeah. He got two of the two million,
$2 billion lawsuit against. Them yeah, he lost that he lost
it the reason why he he lost is because to own a liquor company
can't. Have a felon.
Assault. And battery, you can't have it,
right? That's a feeling, right, though?
So. But no, just any assault and
battery, period. Remember when?
I don't know if you remember when Diddy got in trouble at
(10:04):
UCLA with his son and then supposedly they said that he hit
the coach with a kettlebell. You didn't hear nothing else
about it? He made a donation.
So with Diddy. In that video with Cassie, which
makes sense why he didn't get it, which just makes sense why
nobody's seen it, because he paid for it, so nobody's seen
it. He did what he did right and
what did he? He fell out.
(10:26):
Feel like he made the mistake and he ain't no mistake.
He made a mistake. So he made.
He made a lot of. Mistakes.
So I mean, he made a lot of mistakes, but as a man, he stood
up for himself because he didn'tlet the So when he did that, he
the tables turned on him. That's how I see it.
They turned on him because he went.
Against the grain. You can't go against the the
(10:46):
great dragon, You go against theDrake dragon.
He's going to blow his fire on. He's going to burn your whole
house down. You got you can go against the
great Dragon, you just got to know what the fuck is going to
happen with it. You go against the great dragon,
you better make sure your jacketis clean as hell.
I mean super washed. But like, think about it, right?
When did he get out? Ain't nobody really going to get
away from Diddy. They're going to be like,
they're going to be like, he's just going to be that *** in the
(11:07):
hood that got money who's a freak *** He's still Diddy.
Still. Going to have the baby oil.
It's lit. We're still going to have it
right still. Got the baby.
But now everybody's going to be like, see, I don't know, it's
weird because I feel like. The bandwagon is.
Yeah, they're. Going to ride the bandwagon.
That's why everybody was quiet. They're like, all right, we
don't know if he's going to get locked up or not, so we don't
(11:28):
want to say nothing crazy and heget out and make shit out for
us. And you know why they don't want
to say that, right? Why?
Because they owned. What you mean?
Because when you know, when you sign a deal, they control who
you talk to, what you do, how you do it.
Yeah. Everything in that deal is they
what commercials you can be in, what songs you can put out, what
playlist you can do, what advertising you can do, what
(11:48):
clothes you can wear. Like some celebrities can't wear
my clothes they because they sign with Louis Vuitton, they
sign with all these different, you know what I'm saying, big,
top notch companies. So they're not allowed to wear
or sponsor other people's clothing, especially with young
black minority entrepreneurs coming up in the neighborhood.
You know what I'm saying? They try to keep it there.
(12:09):
You know what I'm saying? They try to keep us here.
So, you know, like a lot of the rappers, they don't understand
when you sign that contract or the dotted line, your life is
signed away. So that's why a lot of people
try to be independent. You think?
You know? Yeah, That's why a lot of people
won't be independent. Unless you get.
Greedy. You want the money.
It's harder. It's harder.
I don't think it all right. Both, both statements are true.
(12:30):
I'm the person who has done it independently and somebody will
come to me and say, yo Sam, we're gonna give you and show
$2.5 million through the podcast.
Y'all gonna record it over here,record over there.
And for me, it all got to make sense because I feel like what
I'm going to say, I feel, I believe that all the shit that
we've seen over the years and all the, the legends that we've
(12:50):
seen some bad contracts, we got to be smarter.
Exactly. So for me, I want to be able to
own all my shit. Now owning 100% of nothing is
still nothing, right? But if somebody were to come to
me and say, Yo, Sam, give us 50%or 55% or something like that,
Like you said, the big labels, right?
I'll take a label deal for a certain amount of time or I'll
take like a publishing deal or some type of shit where they're
(13:13):
the ones that's going to be, youknow, projecting our shit to the
masses, putting us on billboards, doing all the
marketing versus somebody else going to like, oh, we're going
to get you guys cameras, microphones, like we already got
all that shit. I don't need you to do none of
that shit. I just need you to get my shit
to people. Get us on the the popular
podcast channels and all these podcast summits, because
(13:33):
eventually you have to evolve inpocket because you could.
It's only so long as you can sithere and talk to people, bro
True. So for me and the show, it's
like we're always looking for ways to evolve, whether it's us
walking around, having conversations with people, like
the talking on the street shout out to Mike Dees, like doing
things like what he's doing takes discipline, right?
Because to do what Mike Dees is doing means you got to get up,
(13:56):
go out, set up, hope to have a good night.
That's true. Every night's not going to be a
good night because you don't know who the fuck you're meeting
that night. You can have a great night at
the Dublin, but then you can go to the West and now she could be
washed. He's smart, he know exactly
where to go. True.
That took time. I'm sure that didn't happen
overnight. It took time for him to go
certain places to figure out what demos are going to react.
(14:18):
Because not everybody want to beon camera.
The older heads, not all of themwant to be on camera.
Some of the older dudes don't want to.
The shorties don't really care. The people that's cheating on
their *** It's slick. Don't want to be on camera, it's
going to keep it a bug. You don't see the *** out here
being on camera either. It's the shorties that run from
the camera because they know they ain't supposed to be over
there at the Dublin House, because they told their men they
(14:39):
overhear Randolph. Oh, at the Grand.
Oh. Yeah.
What the fuck y'all doing? Yeah, shout out to Mike these,
man. I appreciate you for putting me
on. Yeah.
Shout out to Mike these how was that mean How was that mean him
How was that I guess how was it meeting Mike these?
Yo, he was cool, yo, Like he wasjust bad laid back my quiet,
like, you know, he was just in his own motion and like it's
(14:59):
like, yo, do you let's see what you got right.
Right what I'm saying, shouts out to Mike.
These pops too. I forgot his name.
I always see him. He's just as candid on camera as
Mike Deez. Like he's funny as shit.
I don't know his name. I'd be seeing his Facebook,
maybe his Instagram. His pops as funny as shit.
That's cool, man. Shout out to Mike Deez, I like
to see *** like that wearing wedding.
See and so cuz now I'm from Boston, right?
(15:21):
So it's like being from Boston and seeing things like that
makes me fight and work every single day because success is
not defined by how much money you got.
Success is defined by how ambitious you are and what
you're doing with the money whenyou get it.
What you. Going to do with your money
though. You keep reinvesting it back
(15:43):
into your companies. You keep invested into.
You see a person like Benz, you know, that's young, that's
talented, you know what I'm saying?
And like you said, a music production company, like, you
know, those type of people I invest in because I feel like
that's what the universe want meto do.
The universe put me here to helppeople to to provide, you know
(16:05):
what I'm saying? And I never changed.
I was always a nice guy. I mean, I'm a nice guy, but at
the same time, I'm a asshole. You get what I'm saying?
I know it sounds kind of like. You know, no, no, no.
That makes sense. That's on.
That's on. That's on par, right?
So that goes with my collection,St. or Senna, right?
And that's where I'm here today because I realized that I'm a
sink because I'm chasing my dreams.
(16:27):
And sometimes I become a Sinner because I chase my nightmares
and I keep bumping my head and doing the same thing over and
over until somebody smacked me in my head and say yo, wake up,
you're doing the same thing. Give me two sins that you could
talk about. Two sins.
Two sins. 2 sins that you committed that you feel like you
learn from. And the sins don't got to be
nothing crazy. There's got to be a sin that you
(16:50):
that you learn from, right? For me, lust.
Oh lust. Oh.
Man that that that lust gets that ass the baddies.
Are having less trouble. Man, the baddies of today are
the baddies of yesterday. The baddies of all the days.
No, no, no baddies because I feel like baddies have changed
because there wasn't baddies back in the day.
What? Do we call them Dimes?
(17:11):
Yeah, what the fuck did? We call them Dimes, yeah.
Dimes yeah she a dime yeah yeah yeah yeah oh I.
Used to say baby girl. Oh my baby's mother hated that
shit. Oh.
Man. Don't call me baby girl.
You call everybody baby. Girl you call the shorties.
Baby girl, baby. Girl because she's sweet like
candy. You know what I learned from I
used to fuck up by giving all the shorties forehead kisses.
(17:32):
You know what that means? You kiss me.
I I didn't at first. I in my defense, it's a it's.
A The pineal gland. I don't know what the fuck that
was. The pineal gland.
I was doing it just because I was taller than bitches.
Yeah, So I was just one arm. You know I Shorty, right?
But it was ever in the middle ofthe forehead, you know what I
(17:52):
mean? I know, I know.
That's what a God live. I create, I create a lot of
trauma. Like the energy that flows
through a kiss to the head. Yeah, I stopped that shit a long
time. Give me, give me another second.
I gave you mine. That was 4 head kisses.
I had to stop that. Lust.
Lust. When I say lust is because I
wanted her. I wanted her and I wanted her
(18:14):
and sometimes when I want her, she want me.
But then I want to go over here on a trip and then I'm getting
in trouble because I shouldn't be over.
There discipline I. Didn't have no discipline and I
wanted to party with them all the time.
So it was like focus on my company or party with the
chicks, be outside. So I was like, you know what?
She's calling me to be outside. I'm gonna be outside.
(18:34):
I chose the Shorty over my moneyfor that day because I feel like
I'm a hustler. I'm gonna get it back
regardless, you feel me? So that was really one of my
downfalls. OK for me, let me see one of my
sins that I had to learn from lying.
Lying, bro. Like And it wasn't lying because
I'm afraid. It was more so lying because you
(18:57):
don't want to let people down. You know what I mean?
So for me, you could tell somebody a quick white lie and
it's a white lie because you canmake it come true.
You can follow through, but you don't follow through.
So you end up having to lie about why you didn't you feel
me. So for me, I had to learn, learn
from all right, bro, why are youlying for?
Like these people ain't respectfully, they ain't that
(19:18):
fucking important. Why the fuck are you lying to
them? Like they ain't going to stop
you a day. Like you ain't got to lie to
somebody and tell them like yo, I didn't come to your event
because I fell asleep. Like yo, I didn't come to your
event because yo bro, I was tired my *** Like I just didn't
come. I apologize.
I'll make the next one, or I find a way to make it up.
I'm not the person that's just going to lie about some corny
shit. Like to me, if you could lie
(19:38):
about the most minute shit, you diabolical my *** because you'll
lie about everything. There's a lot of those out
there. It's slit.
Oh my God. I.
Don't know how many people tell me so many stories.
They owe me money, man. I had to pay bills.
I had to do this. Yeah, like you lying.
I just see you in the club with a section, bro.
What you talking about? That shit cost what, 12115
(19:59):
hundred? You and the grand talk about you
ain't got no money. But I don't understand that
shit. Like motherfuckers pay 1200 sit
in the corner. I don't be understanding that
shit bro. Like I'd be trying to process it
in my head ever since I was young going to like everyone
felt downtown like 3-4 floors. Some of y'all don't know about
that felt. Was that shit though.
You had like 4 different floors of music.
(20:20):
Yeah, like the hip hop R&B. You had the the yeah, like the
not rave music, but it was like pop music and sometimes you had
like the reggae and shit. And if you was that felt
sometimes you have 3 or 4 floorswhere you have one floor on the
roof, you have the other floors that you have to travel through.
But back in the day, listen, I remember some of the good clubs
back in the day like Fell, who'son 1st down in Fenway.
(20:43):
I heard of that. Oh my God Oh my God who's who's
on 1st? Listen I used to cash my check
on Fridays. My man's in them.
We used to go cash out checks. I used to get like $200 in ones
just to go on stage at the end of the night and throw ones.
I don't know why bro. I felt like I want to be a fake
drug dealer. I did not give a fuck.
That's dope. It was just exciting to me, dog.
(21:04):
I didn't give a fuck, right? So with me, it's like I'm just
coming outside, man. He wasn't outside.
So I came outside basically what, 2015, 2016 because I was
about to be married. So you.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. It's it's lit you almost.
Got married? Almost got married.
What? What stopped it?
What stopped it? Communication.
(21:25):
Between you or her? Yeah, between me and her.
Between Was it from you on your end or her end?
It was both of us. OK, OK, mutual.
Both of us mutual, you know, we didn't know how to communicate.
Type shit. So why is y'all gonna get
married? Because we communicated.
It was a beautiful thing. We could see here, it'd be like
a park house. We just sit there.
We could talk about politics. We could talk about everything,
(21:46):
right? But when it comes to personal
life stuff, yeah, it was hard for her.
Why she? Wanted to like share her life
with you. She said I'm too friendly yo.
That's the same right there bro.Listen, being too friendly to
the bitches, bitches see it. I have my own crib, right?
So. We was friends for like 5 years.
(22:07):
We was together for three, right?
You know what she gave me for mybirthday?
A house key. So where?
Her house to her house for your birthday.
For my birthday. So the the president.
Me a birthday party. So the president was her giving
you access to her home? Yes.
So I could come in and out. Yeah, you know what the see and
(22:29):
and to me, that's why I had to learn as I gotten older, like
you gotta this is the accountability part, right?
You had to learn that you have to accept that that's the bitch
that you. Exactly.
Right. And I've had kept bitches back
in the day. I won't say bitches because
these are all women I've dated or I've dealt with, so I won't
call them bitches. I know these women.
You can't complain about the show you that you with.
(22:51):
No, I wasn't complaining about her.
She was cool. That was my best friend.
Is it your best? But it was my my best friend
wouldn't give me a key to the. Crib So the reason why she
didn't want to give me the key to the crib because you're not a
mother. Be like, yo, I'm not going to
give you the key, 'cause you ain't going to be coming here
all the times of the night. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
When? You get off work, you should
know where to come. You need to come home.
Yeah. So me being a Gemini, right?
I can't sit still. Gemini still fucking Gemini,
(23:14):
Yeah. I feel stuck.
I don't like to be stuck in the house.
I like to be outside. I ain't even gonna hold you.
Man, see, I see. It's a different reason why I'm
outside. Though.
But are you still doing the samethings while you're outside?
Am I doing the same? Thing like a cheetah never loses
its spot. So now I'm no longer how you
said. It's like if I see a dope
(23:35):
Shorty, it's not like I'm like, oh man, she's dope.
I got to get with her. It's like this, you could be a
model for my company or I see like some potential where I can,
we can work together, we could get rich together.
That's how I'm looking at it now.
Because at the end of the day, so much, so many of us put our
women down. We don't bring them up.
(23:55):
So you need a king to raise a queen?
Snicker Tony got game. I see how you get in trouble
though. Yeah, I see how you get in
trouble because you be hitting bitches with the Martin Luther
speeches. That's my marketing skill
though, like you know, it's likelike either you with me or
you're against me. So if you with me and you enjoy
(24:16):
my lifestyle, like you said, that corner and venue or the,
the, the grand, whatever is that, right?
That corner right now to me is areason because I'm trying to tap
in with all the deejays. I'm trying to tap in with all
the promoters because I want everybody with my clothes on
their back. And the reason why I want
everybody with my clothes on my on their back is because it's my
(24:37):
vision is what I see. So when you see those martyrs or
all those different things on the back of my clothing brand,
on all those different designs, it's because that's how I look
at the world. That's how I look at life.
So it ain't just basic designs I'm throwing on the back of the
clothes. It's something that I live by.
Like what kind of shorties you go for?
(24:58):
You go for the shorties that gotdrama or you don't give a fuck
about their drama at all. Their drama is their drama or
you don't mind to bring it on. I'm looking for a piece of mine
in 2025. So like I tell everybody, if you
can't bring me a piece of mind, I don't want to hear it.
My loyalty is real. Like I'm really loyal, like a
loyal friend. Like if I tell you something, if
I say I'm not thinking about these other chicks out here and
(25:19):
you're the only one for me that I really ain't thinking.
About *** you lying. All men lie about that shit.
2025, bro, it's about that money, bro, it's about
relationships. It's about getting to where I
need to be because like I said before, I wasn't utilizing the
access that I was having to certain things in Boston.
(25:41):
I was misusing the people that Ihad access to.
So that's what my sin. I was just misusing people,
right? You know what I'm saying?
I was nice to them. But that's accountability also.
Yeah, it's for my accountabilityfor you, right?
Because some people won't admit that shit, bro, right.
They'd be like, Nah, it was their fault, not yours, but it
really was your fault. Because at the end of the day, I
always ask myself, This is the question I ask myself every day
(26:04):
I wake up. If I die tomorrow, is she going
to pay for me to get buried? It's late.
If I go to jail tomorrow, is shegoing to write me letters, send
me money and come see me? Probably not.
Because if they in love with thelifestyle, they in love with me.
So that's why I ain't chasing. I'm attracting.
You ever had your heart broken? A lot of times.
Damn, how many times you a loverboy?
(26:27):
You fall in love, man Quick, huh?
It all depends on the women. OK, OK.
All right. Black women, do you fall in love
quick? Black women, Nah.
OK, Caribbean women, do you fallin?
Love quick. Nah.
OK. Cape Verdean.
OK, Cape Verdean. We got one.
We got one. How about Haitian women?
(26:47):
Haitian women, Haitian women. Listen, listen.
Let's be real. Let's be real.
Haitian women back in the day was not somebody you would go to
in public. Be real, be real.
Back in the day in Boston, it was not cool.
Today, the Haitian. Or Africans.
Wow, that's crazy. You don't believe so, yo.
Yo, the cycle was all messed up.Think about it all messed up.
Think about it bro. They will cap on.
(27:09):
You think about it bro, like back in the day it was African
booty scratches, it was Haitians, Haitian Bo or some
shit body order, whatever fuck it was right but as you started
getting older and thinking for. Yourself probably just new to
the country. Not even that.
The Haitian girls was the girls on the porch, right, Right.
The Haitian girls was the girls.That was like the good girls.
They went to school. They did all their homework.
They came home. They listened to their dad.
(27:31):
Their mom was, you know, probably, you know, working for
their dad like I've always seen.I don't, I don't know.
I stay out of that shit. The Haitian girls had fire.
It's less. They know how to grind Haitian
women, yes, they know how to grind.
They nurse practitioners. They yo everything, everything
all the. All the Haitians that were
nurses was hosed. It's lit.
(27:52):
I don't care what the fuck y'allsay.
I seen the research and it said that 90% of nurses are liars and
cheaters because they have the worst schedules.
Them in doctors? Them in doctors.
Think about any nurse that you know, think about their
schedule. They work, they work, they work
(28:13):
12 hour days. They work 30 hour and 3 hours,
like 3 days. They'll work two days in a row
from like 7:00 in the morning tolike 12 at night, right?
And then that's the time you cansee him.
You're like, oh bro, I got to drive over here at midnight
after you put your kid to bed toDick you down just to leave
because you got to go to work inthree hours.
If I get a nurse right now and Igot to drive 3 hours to Dick you
(28:36):
down, hell. Yeah.
It's it's it's it's late. We get in the car, we get rental
companies. Hell, I don't know nobody with
a. Nurse.
I don't know. Nobody with a nurse that was
that was positively living. I don't know.
No *** who had a nurse. None.
Every dude that I know that had a nurse as a girlfriend, they
cheated on him. That's bad because.
(28:56):
They ain't got no time. Think about it.
You want think about it like yousaid, you want to go to the to
the club, you want to promote your shit, but your girls over
here at Tufts Medical Center till 2:00 in the morning, right
at 2:00 in the morning, she expected you to come get her.
When you come get her, you smelllike Remy.
You smell like Remy bitches and you got gooder on you.
You think she's listening to anything you say when you come
pick her up. Think about it.
(29:18):
I mean it all depends on how y'all build and communicate.
It out takes only a matter of time bro because in my opinion
when women and men see the things that you're doing and
they're not a part of or createsresentment.
So one thing I learned right is this is where the two things
yeah, perception and empathy. OK.
(29:38):
Because I realized perception, the deception, it's not really
the reality. Just because you see me with 10
women, right? You see me in the club with 10
women, that don't mean I'm messing with idiots.
Why? You got 10 women.
Because what's going to track all the other beasts?
But you also know it's the perception, so that perception
is also going to be a deception to the sin.
(30:01):
And that's. If if bitches see you with 10
bitches all the time, all the time you go to the club, ain't
none of them bitches believing nothing you saying because they
know you telling them lies to 10of them.
You think so? Yeah.
It's crazy that you say that, right?
Because you remember when I first started.
Yeah. And I always used to have
females. So now every chick thinks, yo,
(30:22):
oh, you was banging her. You was banging.
Her it's, it's lit, those chicks.
Didn't even won't give me nothing.
They was just in love with my lifestyle.
But the girls see the perceptionand like I've told men and women
before, women don't like women. I don't give a fuck.
I don't give a fuck what none ofyou bitches tell me.
Y'all don't like each other? It's lit.
They don't, and I've seen it. Y'all don't.
(30:43):
Y'all don't. Y'all don't wish each other
happy birthday. Y'all don't come and see each
other. Y'all bitches be in the hospital
and go visit each other. Y'all kids be turning four or
five years old. Bitches don't show up.
They just send y'all texts. Women don't like each other bro.
But you know the craziest thing?And so I did meet a girl, right?
And I've been breaking it down, my lifestyle to her day and I
(31:04):
always answer the phone for FaceTime and if I'm with another
woman. FaceTime.
But why they FaceTime you? Because she won't see what I'm
doing and I. Respect it.
Should you? Should you?
Yeah. So for Shorty FaceTime you, she
tells you that she wants FaceTime you all the time and
you don't. Is that a deal breaker?
So the Shorty I have now, we FaceTime because she's in
Florida, I'm here and we FaceTime all day long.
(31:27):
Right now. Right now, because it's the
summertime. Because it's summertime.
Holla at me in the winter time. She ain't got nobody to lay out
with. When she know that you ain't
outside and then the promote it's too cold you up here in
Boston. Gonna be outside in Boston.
Does she know that? It's late or.
She knows that that's how she met me outside.
Down South. Schmidt, you outside down South.
(31:49):
And you know, my goal is I want to go back down there, too.
I like it down there. Like I said.
I love Miami, shout out to Miamiman Geminis where people forget
sometimes. I got to be careful with my
tongue because as you were talking earlier, words are
spells. It's lit and.
Sometimes I might come off wherethey think I might really like
(32:11):
them. What do you do that makes women
think you like them? Because I'm supportive, I'm
uplifting, I'm motivating, and I'm trying to, you know,
convince them that they're more than what people see in them.
You sound. Like a sugar daddy.
It's. Daddy's always believing you
more than everybody. Else they just.
Want to just want to make sure you get up to where you need to
be, you know, let's. Do it.
Hey, check it out. It's a team apparel 617 and a
team clothing.com. That's where you can go check
out all the leg and sets. Everything's up there, all the
T-shirts, the AST T-shirts. But I'm gonna let y'all know a
secret. Ato is outside.
We selling merch back of the truck anyway, I'm going selling
(00:20):
merch. So the new drop that I got, it
all went out the back of the truck.
I didn't even go to the Internet.
Let. Me.
Just shout out to everybody. I don't want to forget nobody's
name. So I'm just say the 18 family,
everybody I've been rocking out with for the last six months,
three months or so. If you help me to get where I
need to be in some sort of fashion away, I just want to
(00:43):
shout you out and I want to thank you.
If you reposted something that Idid, I want to shout you out.
It's lit. So yo, let's keep positive, stay
focused. 2025 we still at in thebeginning of the summer.
Let's keep it moving. Let's keep that motion going.
Everybody that's rolling with meoutside tonight.
What's the reason or what's the thing that started you out with
(01:04):
a team apparel? Like where'd the name come from?
So a team came basically. It was like I used to watch the
Mr. T show. I don't know if y'all a little
younger, but Mr. T, he was the man.
He had his whole team surroundedby him and he led the way.
You know what I'm saying? He saved the day, you know what
I'm saying? And with me, that's how I feel I
am. I feel like I'm not a hero, but
(01:26):
I feel like God put me on this earth for a reason.
Like yo, so, so many times. I shouldn't be here, I'm here.
So you know, I used to question that like you ain't supposed to
be here, but you are. If I mean, I do believe that we
go through situations to help our minds evolve and it helps
with your troubleshooting, right?
Your trouble solutions where yougoing through shit?
(01:48):
All right. So for example, most men feel
like they're worthless or not even worth it.
Most men are having bad days or bad attitudes because it broke
right. I personally believe *** we have
an attitude when you see dudes that always be having stink
attitudes in a bad mood because *** got no money but.
I just want to jump in and say this.
Right. Yeah, yeah.
Listen, guys, everybody around the world, you can't.
(02:10):
You don't have to have money. Money's energy, your energy, you
think so the energy that you putout into life is the energy that
you're going to receive. And the reason why I believe
that because I've been broke, but I always had good energy.
So everybody still rock with me?He was a broke *** with good
energy. Right.
They're clap in front of my face, but yo, they're clap in
(02:33):
front of my face and they'll be like, yo, put me on.
They'll be like, yeah, I got you, I got you, I got you.
Why do? You think that is though?
Because you know, people don't want you to see you get ahead of
them. It sucks like that.
And the people. Is it people or black people?
It's everybody, man. OK, Yeah, it's.
Everybody, I want to see if you go get that trick question.
Yeah, it's everybody, man, whether they Dominican, Puerto
Rican is whatever meant. There's so many cultural divided
(02:57):
lines from ethnicity segregated,but is my biggest supporters
have come outside of my community.
That's what I can say. Shout out to Antonio sci-fi
pizza for always supporting me. You know what I'm saying?
Shout out to everybody that has been holding me down, and it's
been surprising because it's notbeen my own people.
(03:17):
But why is it surprising? Is that based?
Is that based off your expectations for people?
No, you know what I expected wasthe people I grew up with to
support me 100%. So what I learned?
You can't set expectations on nobody.
The moment you start setting expectations, that's when you go
downhill. You think so?
Yeah, because you'll be disappointed.
Now you get discouraged because you're like, my peoples ain't
(03:39):
buying it, my family ain't buying it.
But it's not for them to buy. It's for people around the world
to support me globally, respect me, and then my family fall on
board. Speaking of support, do you
believe that people support you because they want to, or they
support you because other peopleare supporting you?
It goes both ways. Tell me which way.
So people support you because other people support you, True.
(04:01):
Because then they know you got emotion, everybody.
I think it's the strangers that support you.
When the strangers support you and people see that shit, that
makes them want to support. You, that's definitely true.
That's definitely true. Because when I was in Miami,
like I told you, I was down in Miami by myself and like I was
talking to a lot of people, man,and some people turned their
back on me and I'm damn, I'm started laughing.
(04:21):
I'm like damn. Down there or up here?
Down there in Miami man, you know so and then I met this dude
man in Miami at the club man andum yo, it was like a beautiful
relationship because he started introduced me to people because
he's seeing where I was heading.So if you ain't checked out my
video in Miami, go check that out.
A team apparel 617 man, the videos dope is live is lit.
(04:42):
It's a lifestyle. You know what I'm saying?
And I'm not trying to brag. I'm not trying to Bros.
I just want everybody know that a team is just not a clothing
brand. It's a lifestyle.
It's a way that I want to live. It's the way that I live and
everybody around me, I want themto live the same way.
It's it's lit. Fine, that's fine.
So I so tell me like, are you from Boston?
(05:03):
You from the state you from out of state?
Where you from like not known hood type shit like you grew up
in Boston at all, Like you from here, you born and raised or you
you you import or implant? I don't want to say import
because that's going to make yousound like.
One of the immigrants, it's, it's lit.
You already know man might be a clone.
On the oh shit, that's a fact. They asked me that one time.
(05:25):
It was like a friend of mine. She's like how you everywhere at
one time. I said because I'm ambitious and
I'm determined. I want to be successful, so I'm
going to be everywhere I need. To be you don't turn that shit
off. You don't turn that Monica shit
off where like you, you know, when you see like the
infomercials and always telling you something, you don't seem to
turn yours off. So it's a good thing that you
always have this persona of likeyou said, being positive.
(05:48):
So when shorty's asked you like yo, how you there and how you
there, it's like yo, because I'mstriving to be great, right?
And the average person doesn't realize that to be great, you're
going to lose out on time, right?
Because time is the biggest gamble in my opinion, that
you're always going to bet on, right?
Because for example, you might spend three to five years with
(06:09):
18 clothes and it might not feellike it's taking off the way you
want it to, right? But maybe in year 6, year 7,
when it takes off, right? Because it takes time for people
to get accustomed to things. Shit, it took time for you to
get accustomed to the podcast, bro.
When we started the podcast, ***wasn't feeling it at first
because he was like a podcast. The fuck is that?
And I'm like, y'all *** are justold.
Y'all don't get it. Like radio's dying.
(06:31):
Nobody wants to listen to radio because it's PC conversations,
you know what I mean? And I don't want to give, I
don't want you to always give methe politically correct.
I want you to tell me how, how you truly feel and what you
truly believe versus the the right answer, right?
Because I believe that humans, not even humans, just adults,
not even adults, people, people,people can tell the difference
(06:53):
between some bullshit and some real shit, right?
So how you give your answers, the way you give your answers,
people pay attention to that. And if it doesn't feel like it's
genuine or just realistic, *** will just fade real quick to
black. They won't fuck with your shit
at all because they're like all this *** scripted like we've had
guests where we know where like show and I will be like you talk
to this person. It's a good look, but it's going
(07:13):
to be mad PC shit, right? Meaning it'll challenge us,
it'll challenge us to be different and not be out of our
comfort zone, but more so step in the Gray area, right?
We live in the Gray area. A lot of times we live in the
straightforward direct era at times.
You got to live in the Gray area, right?
We don't never want to live in the PC era because that's what
(07:34):
we not preach against, but we speak against, right?
So we don't ever, we don't ever want to be hypocritical in that,
in that moment, we're going to live in the Gray area where
we'll talk about some shit that they want to talk about, but we
might also throw some, some, youknow, left turns in there.
Not to not to be like salacious,but to be like, you know, like,
all right, for example, like with Mayor Wu, like we're not
(07:55):
going to ask her about the campaigns and shit all the time.
We're going to ask her like, yo,how's it?
How's it, you know, going to theWest Indian parade?
How is it working with black people on your staff?
Because that City Hall is predominantly white.
Growing up, it was always predominantly white.
If you look at Mayor Menino staff, all that shit,
everybody's staff was predominantly white and her
cabinet is like majority. Like I think it's very diverse.
(08:17):
Like it's brown skinned white people don't matter.
But those are the things like ask her instead of asking her
like, yo, you know, how'd you meet your husband?
Like right. Like, to me, it's not corny, but
it's not the shit that people onour demo want to hear you.
Know what I mean? This ain't the next 60.
Minutes. No, we don't want that shit.
I don't want no boring shit. Like we're going to like even
like now, like we're going to get our spiel out the way, which
is like, all right, we're going to talk about Ato 18.
(08:39):
We're going to talk about where you're from and then you get
into like just other conversations, just other
banter. Because when you Give your
opinion on the things, it let's people know if they can rock
with you or not. True.
You could say some wild shit that I might not agree with, but
other people like. That's exactly how I feel.
Yes, Sir. For example, how you feel about
Daddy's trial? Did he do it?
(09:00):
Did he not? Did he do it?
Did he not? You see?
He got off. Right.
And if he did it, if he didn't do it, one thing's for sure, two
things. They did it.
They said he didn't. You know that, right?
They said he did it. Two out of five, two out of
five, two out of five. So he he beat the Rico charge,
OK. It's it's it's the.
Rico charge would have gave him almost life, maybe 30 years
right by itself. He beat that charge and he beat
(09:21):
the sex trafficking. Only thing he got was
prostitution so they said based on that the maximus 10 years but
this is a first time offender which means he has no record.
Probation. Probation.
Exactly. That's a win.
That's a win for Diddy. He lost a rock, though he lost a
rock. He lost a rock.
Hey, but look. He lost de Leon he.
(09:42):
Was trying to. Sue them, right?
Yeah. He got two of the two million,
$2 billion lawsuit against. Them yeah, he lost that he lost
it the reason why he he lost is because to own a liquor company
can't. Have a felon.
Assault. And battery, you can't have it,
right? That's a feeling, right, though?
So. But no, just any assault and
battery, period. Remember when?
I don't know if you remember when Diddy got in trouble at
(10:04):
UCLA with his son and then supposedly they said that he hit
the coach with a kettlebell. You didn't hear nothing else
about it? He made a donation.
So with Diddy. In that video with Cassie, which
makes sense why he didn't get it, which just makes sense why
nobody's seen it, because he paid for it, so nobody's seen
it. He did what he did right and
what did he? He fell out.
(10:26):
Feel like he made the mistake and he ain't no mistake.
He made a mistake. So he made.
He made a lot of. Mistakes.
So I mean, he made a lot of mistakes, but as a man, he stood
up for himself because he didn'tlet the So when he did that, he
the tables turned on him. That's how I see it.
They turned on him because he went.
Against the grain. You can't go against the the
(10:46):
great dragon, You go against theDrake dragon.
He's going to blow his fire on. He's going to burn your whole
house down. You got you can go against the
great Dragon, you just got to know what the fuck is going to
happen with it. You go against the great dragon,
you better make sure your jacketis clean as hell.
I mean super washed. But like, think about it, right?
When did he get out? Ain't nobody really going to get
away from Diddy. They're going to be like,
they're going to be like, he's just going to be that *** in the
(11:07):
hood that got money who's a freak *** He's still Diddy.
Still. Going to have the baby oil.
It's lit. We're still going to have it
right still. Got the baby.
But now everybody's going to be like, see, I don't know, it's
weird because I feel like. The bandwagon is.
Yeah, they're. Going to ride the bandwagon.
That's why everybody was quiet. They're like, all right, we
don't know if he's going to get locked up or not, so we don't
(11:28):
want to say nothing crazy and heget out and make shit out for
us. And you know why they don't want
to say that, right? Why?
Because they owned. What you mean?
Because when you know, when you sign a deal, they control who
you talk to, what you do, how you do it.
Yeah. Everything in that deal is they
what commercials you can be in, what songs you can put out, what
playlist you can do, what advertising you can do, what
(11:48):
clothes you can wear. Like some celebrities can't wear
my clothes they because they sign with Louis Vuitton, they
sign with all these different, you know what I'm saying, big,
top notch companies. So they're not allowed to wear
or sponsor other people's clothing, especially with young
black minority entrepreneurs coming up in the neighborhood.
You know what I'm saying? They try to keep it there.
(12:09):
You know what I'm saying? They try to keep us here.
So, you know, like a lot of the rappers, they don't understand
when you sign that contract or the dotted line, your life is
signed away. So that's why a lot of people
try to be independent. You think?
You know? Yeah, That's why a lot of people
won't be independent. Unless you get.
Greedy. You want the money.
It's harder. It's harder.
I don't think it all right. Both, both statements are true.
(12:30):
I'm the person who has done it independently and somebody will
come to me and say, yo Sam, we're gonna give you and show
$2.5 million through the podcast.
Y'all gonna record it over here,record over there.
And for me, it all got to make sense because I feel like what
I'm going to say, I feel, I believe that all the shit that
we've seen over the years and all the, the legends that we've
(12:50):
seen some bad contracts, we got to be smarter.
Exactly. So for me, I want to be able to
own all my shit. Now owning 100% of nothing is
still nothing, right? But if somebody were to come to
me and say, Yo, Sam, give us 50%or 55% or something like that,
Like you said, the big labels, right?
I'll take a label deal for a certain amount of time or I'll
take like a publishing deal or some type of shit where they're
(13:13):
the ones that's going to be, youknow, projecting our shit to the
masses, putting us on billboards, doing all the
marketing versus somebody else going to like, oh, we're going
to get you guys cameras, microphones, like we already got
all that shit. I don't need you to do none of
that shit. I just need you to get my shit
to people. Get us on the the popular
podcast channels and all these podcast summits, because
(13:33):
eventually you have to evolve inpocket because you could.
It's only so long as you can sithere and talk to people, bro
True. So for me and the show, it's
like we're always looking for ways to evolve, whether it's us
walking around, having conversations with people, like
the talking on the street shout out to Mike Dees, like doing
things like what he's doing takes discipline, right?
Because to do what Mike Dees is doing means you got to get up,
(13:56):
go out, set up, hope to have a good night.
That's true. Every night's not going to be a
good night because you don't know who the fuck you're meeting
that night. You can have a great night at
the Dublin, but then you can go to the West and now she could be
washed. He's smart, he know exactly
where to go. True.
That took time. I'm sure that didn't happen
overnight. It took time for him to go
certain places to figure out what demos are going to react.
(14:18):
Because not everybody want to beon camera.
The older heads, not all of themwant to be on camera.
Some of the older dudes don't want to.
The shorties don't really care. The people that's cheating on
their *** It's slick. Don't want to be on camera, it's
going to keep it a bug. You don't see the *** out here
being on camera either. It's the shorties that run from
the camera because they know they ain't supposed to be over
there at the Dublin House, because they told their men they
(14:39):
overhear Randolph. Oh, at the Grand.
Oh. Yeah.
What the fuck y'all doing? Yeah, shout out to Mike these,
man. I appreciate you for putting me
on. Yeah.
Shout out to Mike these how was that mean How was that mean him
How was that I guess how was it meeting Mike these?
Yo, he was cool, yo, Like he wasjust bad laid back my quiet,
like, you know, he was just in his own motion and like it's
(14:59):
like, yo, do you let's see what you got right.
Right what I'm saying, shouts out to Mike.
These pops too. I forgot his name.
I always see him. He's just as candid on camera as
Mike Deez. Like he's funny as shit.
I don't know his name. I'd be seeing his Facebook,
maybe his Instagram. His pops as funny as shit.
That's cool, man. Shout out to Mike Deez, I like
to see *** like that wearing wedding.
See and so cuz now I'm from Boston, right?
(15:21):
So it's like being from Boston and seeing things like that
makes me fight and work every single day because success is
not defined by how much money you got.
Success is defined by how ambitious you are and what
you're doing with the money whenyou get it.
What you. Going to do with your money
though. You keep reinvesting it back
(15:43):
into your companies. You keep invested into.
You see a person like Benz, you know, that's young, that's
talented, you know what I'm saying?
And like you said, a music production company, like, you
know, those type of people I invest in because I feel like
that's what the universe want meto do.
The universe put me here to helppeople to to provide, you know
(16:05):
what I'm saying? And I never changed.
I was always a nice guy. I mean, I'm a nice guy, but at
the same time, I'm a asshole. You get what I'm saying?
I know it sounds kind of like. You know, no, no, no.
That makes sense. That's on.
That's on. That's on par, right?
So that goes with my collection,St. or Senna, right?
And that's where I'm here today because I realized that I'm a
sink because I'm chasing my dreams.
(16:27):
And sometimes I become a Sinner because I chase my nightmares
and I keep bumping my head and doing the same thing over and
over until somebody smacked me in my head and say yo, wake up,
you're doing the same thing. Give me two sins that you could
talk about. Two sins.
Two sins. 2 sins that you committed that you feel like you
learn from. And the sins don't got to be
nothing crazy. There's got to be a sin that you
(16:50):
that you learn from, right? For me, lust.
Oh lust. Oh.
Man that that that lust gets that ass the baddies.
Are having less trouble. Man, the baddies of today are
the baddies of yesterday. The baddies of all the days.
No, no, no baddies because I feel like baddies have changed
because there wasn't baddies back in the day.
What? Do we call them Dimes?
(17:11):
Yeah, what the fuck did? We call them Dimes, yeah.
Dimes yeah she a dime yeah yeah yeah yeah oh I.
Used to say baby girl. Oh my baby's mother hated that
shit. Oh.
Man. Don't call me baby girl.
You call everybody baby. Girl you call the shorties.
Baby girl, baby. Girl because she's sweet like
candy. You know what I learned from I
used to fuck up by giving all the shorties forehead kisses.
(17:32):
You know what that means? You kiss me.
I I didn't at first. I in my defense, it's a it's.
A The pineal gland. I don't know what the fuck that
was. The pineal gland.
I was doing it just because I was taller than bitches.
Yeah, So I was just one arm. You know I Shorty, right?
But it was ever in the middle ofthe forehead, you know what I
(17:52):
mean? I know, I know.
That's what a God live. I create, I create a lot of
trauma. Like the energy that flows
through a kiss to the head. Yeah, I stopped that shit a long
time. Give me, give me another second.
I gave you mine. That was 4 head kisses.
I had to stop that. Lust.
Lust. When I say lust is because I
wanted her. I wanted her and I wanted her
(18:14):
and sometimes when I want her, she want me.
But then I want to go over here on a trip and then I'm getting
in trouble because I shouldn't be over.
There discipline I. Didn't have no discipline and I
wanted to party with them all the time.
So it was like focus on my company or party with the
chicks, be outside. So I was like, you know what?
She's calling me to be outside. I'm gonna be outside.
(18:34):
I chose the Shorty over my moneyfor that day because I feel like
I'm a hustler. I'm gonna get it back
regardless, you feel me? So that was really one of my
downfalls. OK for me, let me see one of my
sins that I had to learn from lying.
Lying, bro. Like And it wasn't lying because
I'm afraid. It was more so lying because you
(18:57):
don't want to let people down. You know what I mean?
So for me, you could tell somebody a quick white lie and
it's a white lie because you canmake it come true.
You can follow through, but you don't follow through.
So you end up having to lie about why you didn't you feel
me. So for me, I had to learn, learn
from all right, bro, why are youlying for?
Like these people ain't respectfully, they ain't that
(19:18):
fucking important. Why the fuck are you lying to
them? Like they ain't going to stop
you a day. Like you ain't got to lie to
somebody and tell them like yo, I didn't come to your event
because I fell asleep. Like yo, I didn't come to your
event because yo bro, I was tired my *** Like I just didn't
come. I apologize.
I'll make the next one, or I find a way to make it up.
I'm not the person that's just going to lie about some corny
shit. Like to me, if you could lie
(19:38):
about the most minute shit, you diabolical my *** because you'll
lie about everything. There's a lot of those out
there. It's slit.
Oh my God. I.
Don't know how many people tell me so many stories.
They owe me money, man. I had to pay bills.
I had to do this. Yeah, like you lying.
I just see you in the club with a section, bro.
What you talking about? That shit cost what, 12115
(19:59):
hundred? You and the grand talk about you
ain't got no money. But I don't understand that
shit. Like motherfuckers pay 1200 sit
in the corner. I don't be understanding that
shit bro. Like I'd be trying to process it
in my head ever since I was young going to like everyone
felt downtown like 3-4 floors. Some of y'all don't know about
that felt. Was that shit though.
You had like 4 different floors of music.
(20:20):
Yeah, like the hip hop R&B. You had the the yeah, like the
not rave music, but it was like pop music and sometimes you had
like the reggae and shit. And if you was that felt
sometimes you have 3 or 4 floorswhere you have one floor on the
roof, you have the other floors that you have to travel through.
But back in the day, listen, I remember some of the good clubs
back in the day like Fell, who'son 1st down in Fenway.
(20:43):
I heard of that. Oh my God Oh my God who's who's
on 1st? Listen I used to cash my check
on Fridays. My man's in them.
We used to go cash out checks. I used to get like $200 in ones
just to go on stage at the end of the night and throw ones.
I don't know why bro. I felt like I want to be a fake
drug dealer. I did not give a fuck.
That's dope. It was just exciting to me, dog.
(21:04):
I didn't give a fuck, right? So with me, it's like I'm just
coming outside, man. He wasn't outside.
So I came outside basically what, 2015, 2016 because I was
about to be married. So you.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. It's it's lit you almost.
Got married? Almost got married.
What? What stopped it?
What stopped it? Communication.
(21:25):
Between you or her? Yeah, between me and her.
Between Was it from you on your end or her end?
It was both of us. OK, OK, mutual.
Both of us mutual, you know, we didn't know how to communicate.
Type shit. So why is y'all gonna get
married? Because we communicated.
It was a beautiful thing. We could see here, it'd be like
a park house. We just sit there.
We could talk about politics. We could talk about everything,
(21:46):
right? But when it comes to personal
life stuff, yeah, it was hard for her.
Why she? Wanted to like share her life
with you. She said I'm too friendly yo.
That's the same right there bro.Listen, being too friendly to
the bitches, bitches see it. I have my own crib, right?
So. We was friends for like 5 years.
(22:07):
We was together for three, right?
You know what she gave me for mybirthday?
A house key. So where?
Her house to her house for your birthday.
For my birthday. So the the president.
Me a birthday party. So the president was her giving
you access to her home? Yes.
So I could come in and out. Yeah, you know what the see and
(22:29):
and to me, that's why I had to learn as I gotten older, like
you gotta this is the accountability part, right?
You had to learn that you have to accept that that's the bitch
that you. Exactly.
Right. And I've had kept bitches back
in the day. I won't say bitches because
these are all women I've dated or I've dealt with, so I won't
call them bitches. I know these women.
You can't complain about the show you that you with.
(22:51):
No, I wasn't complaining about her.
She was cool. That was my best friend.
Is it your best? But it was my my best friend
wouldn't give me a key to the. Crib So the reason why she
didn't want to give me the key to the crib because you're not a
mother. Be like, yo, I'm not going to
give you the key, 'cause you ain't going to be coming here
all the times of the night. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
When? You get off work, you should
know where to come. You need to come home.
Yeah. So me being a Gemini, right?
I can't sit still. Gemini still fucking Gemini,
(23:14):
Yeah. I feel stuck.
I don't like to be stuck in the house.
I like to be outside. I ain't even gonna hold you.
Man, see, I see. It's a different reason why I'm
outside. Though.
But are you still doing the samethings while you're outside?
Am I doing the same? Thing like a cheetah never loses
its spot. So now I'm no longer how you
said. It's like if I see a dope
(23:35):
Shorty, it's not like I'm like, oh man, she's dope.
I got to get with her. It's like this, you could be a
model for my company or I see like some potential where I can,
we can work together, we could get rich together.
That's how I'm looking at it now.
Because at the end of the day, so much, so many of us put our
women down. We don't bring them up.
(23:55):
So you need a king to raise a queen?
Snicker Tony got game. I see how you get in trouble
though. Yeah, I see how you get in
trouble because you be hitting bitches with the Martin Luther
speeches. That's my marketing skill
though, like you know, it's likelike either you with me or
you're against me. So if you with me and you enjoy
(24:16):
my lifestyle, like you said, that corner and venue or the,
the, the grand, whatever is that, right?
That corner right now to me is areason because I'm trying to tap
in with all the deejays. I'm trying to tap in with all
the promoters because I want everybody with my clothes on
their back. And the reason why I want
everybody with my clothes on my on their back is because it's my
(24:37):
vision is what I see. So when you see those martyrs or
all those different things on the back of my clothing brand,
on all those different designs, it's because that's how I look
at the world. That's how I look at life.
So it ain't just basic designs I'm throwing on the back of the
clothes. It's something that I live by.
Like what kind of shorties you go for?
(24:58):
You go for the shorties that gotdrama or you don't give a fuck
about their drama at all. Their drama is their drama or
you don't mind to bring it on. I'm looking for a piece of mine
in 2025. So like I tell everybody, if you
can't bring me a piece of mind, I don't want to hear it.
My loyalty is real. Like I'm really loyal, like a
loyal friend. Like if I tell you something, if
I say I'm not thinking about these other chicks out here and
(25:19):
you're the only one for me that I really ain't thinking.
About *** you lying. All men lie about that shit.
2025, bro, it's about that money, bro, it's about
relationships. It's about getting to where I
need to be because like I said before, I wasn't utilizing the
access that I was having to certain things in Boston.
(25:41):
I was misusing the people that Ihad access to.
So that's what my sin. I was just misusing people,
right? You know what I'm saying?
I was nice to them. But that's accountability also.
Yeah, it's for my accountabilityfor you, right?
Because some people won't admit that shit, bro, right.
They'd be like, Nah, it was their fault, not yours, but it
really was your fault. Because at the end of the day, I
always ask myself, This is the question I ask myself every day
(26:04):
I wake up. If I die tomorrow, is she going
to pay for me to get buried? It's late.
If I go to jail tomorrow, is shegoing to write me letters, send
me money and come see me? Probably not.
Because if they in love with thelifestyle, they in love with me.
So that's why I ain't chasing. I'm attracting.
You ever had your heart broken? A lot of times.
Damn, how many times you a loverboy?
(26:27):
You fall in love, man Quick, huh?
It all depends on the women. OK, OK.
All right. Black women, do you fall in love
quick? Black women, Nah.
OK, Caribbean women, do you fallin?
Love quick. Nah.
OK. Cape Verdean.
OK, Cape Verdean. We got one.
We got one. How about Haitian women?
(26:47):
Haitian women, Haitian women. Listen, listen.
Let's be real. Let's be real.
Haitian women back in the day was not somebody you would go to
in public. Be real, be real.
Back in the day in Boston, it was not cool.
Today, the Haitian. Or Africans.
Wow, that's crazy. You don't believe so, yo.
Yo, the cycle was all messed up.Think about it all messed up.
Think about it bro. They will cap on.
(27:09):
You think about it bro, like back in the day it was African
booty scratches, it was Haitians, Haitian Bo or some
shit body order, whatever fuck it was right but as you started
getting older and thinking for. Yourself probably just new to
the country. Not even that.
The Haitian girls was the girls on the porch, right, Right.
The Haitian girls was the girls.That was like the good girls.
They went to school. They did all their homework.
They came home. They listened to their dad.
(27:31):
Their mom was, you know, probably, you know, working for
their dad like I've always seen.I don't, I don't know.
I stay out of that shit. The Haitian girls had fire.
It's less. They know how to grind Haitian
women, yes, they know how to grind.
They nurse practitioners. They yo everything, everything
all the. All the Haitians that were
nurses was hosed. It's lit.
(27:52):
I don't care what the fuck y'allsay.
I seen the research and it said that 90% of nurses are liars and
cheaters because they have the worst schedules.
Them in doctors? Them in doctors.
Think about any nurse that you know, think about their
schedule. They work, they work, they work
(28:13):
12 hour days. They work 30 hour and 3 hours,
like 3 days. They'll work two days in a row
from like 7:00 in the morning tolike 12 at night, right?
And then that's the time you cansee him.
You're like, oh bro, I got to drive over here at midnight
after you put your kid to bed toDick you down just to leave
because you got to go to work inthree hours.
If I get a nurse right now and Igot to drive 3 hours to Dick you
(28:36):
down, hell. Yeah.
It's it's it's it's late. We get in the car, we get rental
companies. Hell, I don't know nobody with
a. Nurse.
I don't know. Nobody with a nurse that was
that was positively living. I don't know.
No *** who had a nurse. None.
Every dude that I know that had a nurse as a girlfriend, they
cheated on him. That's bad because.
(28:56):
They ain't got no time. Think about it.
You want think about it like yousaid, you want to go to the to
the club, you want to promote your shit, but your girls over
here at Tufts Medical Center till 2:00 in the morning, right
at 2:00 in the morning, she expected you to come get her.
When you come get her, you smelllike Remy.
You smell like Remy bitches and you got gooder on you.
You think she's listening to anything you say when you come
pick her up. Think about it.
(29:18):
I mean it all depends on how y'all build and communicate.
It out takes only a matter of time bro because in my opinion
when women and men see the things that you're doing and
they're not a part of or createsresentment.
So one thing I learned right is this is where the two things
yeah, perception and empathy. OK.
(29:38):
Because I realized perception, the deception, it's not really
the reality. Just because you see me with 10
women, right? You see me in the club with 10
women, that don't mean I'm messing with idiots.
Why? You got 10 women.
Because what's going to track all the other beasts?
But you also know it's the perception, so that perception
is also going to be a deception to the sin.
(30:01):
And that's. If if bitches see you with 10
bitches all the time, all the time you go to the club, ain't
none of them bitches believing nothing you saying because they
know you telling them lies to 10of them.
You think so? Yeah.
It's crazy that you say that, right?
Because you remember when I first started.
Yeah. And I always used to have
females. So now every chick thinks, yo,
(30:22):
oh, you was banging her. You was banging.
Her it's, it's lit, those chicks.
Didn't even won't give me nothing.
They was just in love with my lifestyle.
But the girls see the perceptionand like I've told men and women
before, women don't like women. I don't give a fuck.
I don't give a fuck what none ofyou bitches tell me.
Y'all don't like each other? It's lit.
They don't, and I've seen it. Y'all don't.
(30:43):
Y'all don't. Y'all don't wish each other
happy birthday. Y'all don't come and see each
other. Y'all bitches be in the hospital
and go visit each other. Y'all kids be turning four or
five years old. Bitches don't show up.
They just send y'all texts. Women don't like each other bro.
But you know the craziest thing?And so I did meet a girl, right?
And I've been breaking it down, my lifestyle to her day and I
(31:04):
always answer the phone for FaceTime and if I'm with another
woman. FaceTime.
But why they FaceTime you? Because she won't see what I'm
doing and I. Respect it.
Should you? Should you?
Yeah. So for Shorty FaceTime you, she
tells you that she wants FaceTime you all the time and
you don't. Is that a deal breaker?
So the Shorty I have now, we FaceTime because she's in
Florida, I'm here and we FaceTime all day long.
(31:27):
Right now. Right now, because it's the
summertime. Because it's summertime.
Holla at me in the winter time. She ain't got nobody to lay out
with. When she know that you ain't
outside and then the promote it's too cold you up here in
Boston. Gonna be outside in Boston.
Does she know that? It's late or.
She knows that that's how she met me outside.
Down South. Schmidt, you outside down South.
(31:49):
And you know, my goal is I want to go back down there, too.
I like it down there. Like I said.
I love Miami, shout out to Miamiman Geminis where people forget
sometimes. I got to be careful with my
tongue because as you were talking earlier, words are
spells. It's lit and.
Sometimes I might come off wherethey think I might really like
(32:11):
them. What do you do that makes women
think you like them? Because I'm supportive, I'm
uplifting, I'm motivating, and I'm trying to, you know,
convince them that they're more than what people see in them.
You sound. Like a sugar daddy.
It's. Daddy's always believing you
more than everybody. Else they just.
Want to just want to make sure you get up to where you need to
be, you know, let's. Do it.
