(09:46):

Speaker 1 (09:47):
Man? Yes, sir, yes, sir. Great to be back, man,
Great to be back, brother. Thank you for having me.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah, Man, I hope I didn't leaven they albums out
because it feels like it's been going like full throttle
for you, man, the last couple of years.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
You know, we making whenever it is, man, and we
make it gold out of it. You know, it has
to be none less man. Thank you for wording it
like that. But I'm not working, bro, Just work.

Speaker 3 (10:07):
That's what it's all about. Man, It's Chicago work ethic.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
Man.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Yeah, right off the top, I just want to just
say gratitude and thanks for meeting me and my wife
when we came through on Sunday to Sugar Records for
your meet and greet. You know, it's one thing when
like cats like hit the like button right or put
the fire emoji on your Instagram post. But when you
see the fans up close and personally get to shake
hands with them and sign a record and all that,
what's that like instant gratification for you when you get

(10:30):
to see them up close and personal.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
Man, it's beautiful.

Speaker 4 (10:33):
Man.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
You really get a chance to put you know, we
live in the world where everything is on the internet,
and to really shit down and get a chance to
meet the person who love your music and art whatever
it is right to meet them in person and really
shake their hand and touch the soul and chop it
up with them. I mean, it's a beautiful thing, man,
because you know, especially when you when you have people,

(10:54):
even to even have listeners is a blessing, you know.
So uh, man, I believe I worked to this point
and it's just a beautiful thing. Bro. Like, it's a
beautiful thing, man. To meet you and your wife and
you know here in the US and go overseas and crazy,
it's just beautiful, man, Like, I love it, and I

(11:16):
want to do it on a grander scale, man.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
No doubt.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
Man, you ever sit back and just kind of think about,
like how things have kind of gone for you the
last couple of years. I mean, nobody has a template
for this stuff, right, I mean you make music, you
put out albums, and you know, you hope people, you know,
you have an audience or hope people feel it. But
to be like you said, overseas and working with Apollo
Brown and stuff like that, was there ever any kind
of foresight that maybe this might be where you end up.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
One thing about me, I'm a very confident person, right,
I'm a very confident. I'm a very self motivated person.
You really don't have to get up and push me.
You you know, I'm gonna get up and do it
on my own. I'm very self motivated. So, without saying
it in a real pompous way, I've always visioned myself
and this area and higher, you know what I mean. Like,

(12:00):
but I know you can visualize anything, but if you
don't put the work in, it means nothing. It's just
the thought, right, you know, everything is attainable, and uh,
that's what I believe in. I approach everything that way.
I look at where I started and where I am now.
I put myself on the back and say, hey, you
did a great job, You're doing a great job. Now
let's go higher there. You never get complacent, you know, man.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
And that comes through with the album the Grand Design,
because I like how when the album starts, it's kind
of giving like a definition of what the Grand Design
is and what it means. And I feel like, you know,
the album kind of takes you to that, you know
where it shows where you're coming and how far you've
reached and how far you're going, right man?

Speaker 1 (12:39):
Shout out to my uncle DJ Scrap Dirty, Scrap Dirty,
a pioneer man. He got heavyweight in the game man.
So to have him on the intro, he broke it down.
He's a professional with doing that stuff and he did
it right. You know, he did it right along with
my brother Shay. They they opened the album up and
it was beautiful. So you know, Scrap Dirty Scrap Dirty

(12:59):
is the one man, He's the one. He's that's unk
right there. You gonna hear this and he's gonna call
me a sap, you know. There it is.

Speaker 3 (13:07):
You can always count on your uncle Ray.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
And throughout the album too for those who are listening
who haven't heard it yet, but get on it, go
check it out. Throughout the album, there's you know a
lot of even in the out show, there's a lot
of people leaving like a message saying, you know, how
how proud they are and how I know how they
know that you're gonna do great things man, and that
that's got to be pretty cool to have them voiced
on here, right? Was that was that the concept I
all along to have different people, you know, kind of

(13:30):
put their stamp on it.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
Yeah. That basically this is this album is my the
album for my flower. You know. You know, you show
love to so many people throughout the years. I say, man,
let me, let me give back to me on this one.
And I'm gonna give the people who's listening a great
museum of sound and lyricism that they that they have
heard from me before. But on another level. So the

(13:52):
flowers represent the people as you hear the skits, they're
giving me my flowers. So that's what they represent. Most
of those people on those skits, people that saw me
from the very beginning, you know. And uh it was
only right. I couldn't get everybody, but you know we
we got room next album design part two right yeah
yeah yeah, So yeah, man, they're giving me my flowers, bro.

(14:15):
So that's what it's about, you know. That's what all
the skits are about, my loved ones and my close
people to me giving me my flowers, man, and I
appreciate them all.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
Man, no doubt next one will be like a greenhouse
or a garden because there'll be more.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Flowers exactly exactly.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
Man, I got to give you props on the album.
You know, I'm a vinyl head.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
I've been clicking records for years and the record, you know,
it's pink and colors, got the flower looked to it.
Did you have I'm assuming you had a lot to
do with the design of that, right.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
I mean me, my team along with uh, you know,
we partnered up with Mellow Music Group. We all came
to the table and we figured it out. You know,
we wanted it to look like we were gonna you know,
I my mind at first went directly to physical art, like,
let's have something. Somebody make an art pete, let's draw it,
you know, and I'll give I'll get props to mic

(15:04):
Mike Frommello. He was like, man, he threw a couple
of references and chuck and out. We sat down and
we were like, yeah, let's do it. It was I'm
not gonna get a reference he gave. But we had
some you know, some classic albums over the years, and
we just drew inspiration from that and out of side
it's the link up with my brother Tito, very very
great photographer, and uh, we went on my old block
while I grew up, and we made Magic Man and

(15:24):
that you Haven't Man Grand's Down album. Yeah, album cover
of a decade.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
Man, I love that cover. Man, Yeah, it feels it
feels real like Chicago. Man, with the he got the
porch there and the kids and everything and just kind
of sitting out hanging and man, it just took me back.
I grew up in Rogers Park, so we had a
lot of those kind of houses like that with the
three flats or whatever you'd have like the porch or whatever,
you just kind of hang out and watch the kids
playing or doing hopscotch or whatever, double Dutch stuff. Kind
he took me back a little bit because what I

(15:50):
liked about the covers that it could have been today
or it could have been ten years ago. Like it's
kind of timeless, right.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
I mean, yeah, it's very timeless, bro, because the house
on the front cover is the house grew up man in.
The house on on the back cover, there's another house
I grew up in, but across the street my brother
Carlos's crib. He come from that crib one on the front.
Most of my years been in that house. My whole
lineage is on that block and two blocks away. My
whole life, you know, is rooted in that area. But

(16:19):
I really had to go back and represent that on
this album. It couldn't have been any other way. So
I had to go to my old cribs and go
on the block. The kids on the back, I grew
up with their parents, so they're like family. You know,
we went to the block, We got the kids, and
they got paid for that as well. Oh, they got paid.
They got paid. So they had a day's work with Philmore.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
That's awesome and it's real.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
And then you know with the skits and you know,
like you're talking about like this the historic for you
feeling with those those houses, it sounds like more and
more like this. This album was just kind of like
a coming home for you in a way, you know,
kind of representing where you came from and where you're going.

Speaker 3 (16:55):
So salute man, thank you, thank you.

Speaker 1 (16:57):
Brother. I just man, I'm just getting started. Bro. Things
you're gonna see from me and hear from me are
beyond measures. You know what I'm saying, Like I can't
even word it, Like we're gonna go to the moon. Brother,
I'm just getting started. Man.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Everybody, get ready, get your get your rockets out, because
putting stuff out, the meet and greets gonna be on
Mars next.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
So you know, please like the way this pin is
working on this side. Man, It's just I'm just blessed. Man.
I'm enjoying my blessings and I'm blessed to be able
to use my words the way I do. And I
don't take it for granted, you know.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
Man, speaking of the pens. So there's a couple of
lyrics I wanted to bring up. Man.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
First of all, I'm a big Cubs fan. You had
a Cubs codon that day. I saw you at the
record shot. You mentioned Greg Maddox in a record Man.
I was like, yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm a sports head brother, Like I'm yeah,
I'm I'm a sports guy. Like I'm not the best
player to play the sports, but I can definitely, you know,
I could cough my shit, and I love sports man,
and sports is like you know, when you play sports, man,
it's nothing like seeing somebody, whether they're the most hyped
up or the underdog, do something they love and really

(18:11):
showcase this supernatural talent. You know, like football and you
know basketball, watching Steph Curry, he just went for fifty
sixth last night. Man, this is the guy that was
you know, recruited by like one or two colleges. He
was skinny, you know, six' to two and the league
full of giants and still found his way and he
ain't managed to change the game and have arguably the

(18:33):
biggest impact on the game of. Basketball, ever how could
you not love watching that story trans by a four
or five time CHAMPION MVPs the best three point shoot like?
That sports Are sports are, beautiful. MAN a lot of
people don't just look at it as like a game
when you really watch the, professionals, man it's a beautiful. Experience.

man AND i saw, HIM i got A Big crown
shout out To Big. Crown he's been on the show
here before he produced that. Track talk about that, Record, Man.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Girl dad is one of those. Records. MAN i had
went on a hiatus from. WRITING i had went on
his long hiatus from from putting a pin to the
pad and shout out To Big. Crown Big crown is
one of those. Guys you, know we don't really kick,
it we don't really See we probably met maybe three,
times but he's one of those. Guys he'll flood My
My my text is with. Beats and WHEN i heard that,

(22:03):
BEAT i instantly told, them, like you, know don't do
anything to that one because it just it sounded like
a beat of. Peace it sounds the beat sounds like
peace to. Me SO i would just listen to the
beat for a, while and when it was ready for
me to end my, HIATUS i just put that pin
in the pad AND i let everything. Go you, KNOW
i let everything go on the page and it came out.

(22:25):
Beautiful my Brother, chuck he came up with the title
and that we have. It, Man Girl, Dad, Man Girl
dad's the last record is the perfect record in the
album with and, uh you, KNOW i got beautiful, Girls,
MAN i got beautiful. Girls And i'm proud of.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
It.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
Man shout out to all the girl dads out.

Speaker 2 (22:41):
There, yeah, man and even even the boy dads or,
both you, know BECAUSE i mean there's a message in
that song, too you. Know and you, know, man it
JUST i played it before talking to you, here and
it just hit me, again like every TIME i hear,
IT i hear like something new in. It MAYBE i
didn't catch the first. Time AND i think even told
me WHEN i mention On sunday That big crown sends you,

(23:02):
like you, know a whole bunch of beats and you
know one of them will just speak to you in
that way and.

Speaker 3 (23:06):
Something that's what happened.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Here all the, time all the, time all the, Time Big.
Crowns you, know it's so many producers that reach out to. Me,
MAN i got so many beats in my hard. Drive you,
Know i'm gonna get to the bulk of. Them but
some beats you get when you hear, them you just
have to be urging about it because it just touched your,
soul you, Know and that's what Girl dad did for.

(23:27):
Me Big. Crown he's obviously a hard working. Guy he
has a catalog of beats and he wants to. Work
that's what film is. About. MAN i just don't want
to stop, working, right don't want to stop.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Working And i'm sure that's the thing that happens a
lot too with a lot of. Artists you, know they
get a lot of beats and maybe today's not the
day you use that beat you put in a. Folder
maybe six months from, now you're from, now something will
speak to you from that and you, know get the
pen writing.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
Again Right, man you may give me a beat AND
i might not putting an out of out for it
for three, years Bro. Right it's just the way it,
goes Man like when you make an, albums, man if
it's not with a single, producer the all the records
we recorded For cost Of living With Apollo brown is not.
Out oh, wow you get What i'm. Saying so we
got like four records that didn't make. It SO i

(24:12):
might not get to a beat for two. Years it
has to hit me like unless it's one of those.
Joints other than, THAT i have to pace, it LIKE
i got so many beats and there's so many Things i'm.
Doing it may take it may take a. While not
saying that the beat is, trash but it's just like
it could be the best beat in the. World IF
i don't feel it, right Then i'm not gonna get
to it. Right BUT i am gonna tell a, producer,

(24:34):
man keep that on. Ice don't set out to anybody.

Speaker 3 (24:37):
Else right, right make sure no one else gets it
first for.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
Sure but you know that.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
That brings me to WHAT i was gonna ask, You
is it it cost of? Living you worked with A
Polo brown and then this Album Grand design numerous producers on.
It is there like any kind of difference as far
as like working with one producer you kind of said
it a little, bit or as far as working with
like five or six different. Producers is there like A
i don't, know it's harder for you to put songs
together when it's multiple producers like, that or.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
No it's not harder to put the song, Together but it's.
Nothing it's hard about anything when you're working with several.
Producers it's a lot that comes with. Sequencing you have
to make the it has to be some cohesiveness behind,
it opposed to one. Producer this one producer has the
same style and feel and warmth or whatever the beats,
do the producer has. It so working with one producer

(25:24):
is much easier because you got you got the vibe already.
Set it's just about. Now all you gotta do is.
Pain but when you're working with other, producers you, know
it's it's like you got to put this collades of
music together and make it cohesive and it has to make.
Sense so which one DO i like out of the?
TWO i just like making. Music, man don't matter WHEN
i work with producers man or producers work with me

(25:47):
or however you want a, WORD i like to get
in their. WORLD i like to see HOW i fit
in in their, world, right you, Know like writ into
An apollo brown beat is a different approach from writing
to a rashiet ha d. Beat you get What i'm.
Saying so it's just just, different you.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
Know going back to, sports it's like playing with different, teammates,
RIGHT i, mean maybe you know this player is more
you know better shooting. Threes this one's more down below
maybe like. That so you got to learn how to
play with different, people and therefore it sharpens you because
you've got to be more versatile with different producers and
things like. That so actually that that kind of makes
more sense that. Way so, yeah, Man so there it
is killing it, Man. Yeah, Man and you, know going

(26:24):
back To cost Of, LIVING i wanted to bring up
one track from that, album, Man Time. GOES i remember
that was my favorite song WHEN i first heard the
album and playing it like today BECAUSE i lost a
couple of people recently AND i hear that, Song it's
like it just takes me to like another. Place, man
it just hits, differently you know WHAT i. Mean so
talk about that, record, man and what kind of reaction
you got from you, know songs like, that you, know
work with a polo brown, MAN i love that, Album.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
Dude Tom goes is one of the records. Man it
really means a lot to me because of the substance behind.
It it's one of those records where they love it
WHEN i performed it. Overseas it's one of those records
where you know it may you really pay. Attention Mine
Time goals is really about the change within the world
and filling the shift when you're coming from boyhood to,

(27:08):
manhood from manhood to the highest form of. Adulthood you,
know it's about that shift in. Life you, know WHEN i,
lived when it was a time where no one had a.
Device it was one. Phone we used one, phone and

know we went outside to. Play and now everyone's stuck
to a. Device everyone's you, Know i'll be at the
table eating with my. Daughter she has an, iPad you

talks about the changes in life and the shifts in,
life and it's a great introspective. Record of, Course i'm
gonna say, that But Time goals is my highest performing

(27:51):
record to. Date oh, MAN i predict that record to
be in movies. SOMEDAY i don't know what type of,
movie BUT i predict that to be in some, performer
some type of move.

Speaker 2 (28:00):

remember when WHEN i was a, KID i was the answering.

Speaker 2 (38:39):
Assholds that is Kirk osa. Video tell me to get
the hell out of, here and that is exactly What
i'm going to. Do but BEFORE i do, THAT i
got a couple of quick THINGS i did want to
mention too that you, know when we met Fillmore, green
me and my wife at the record store up in you,
know north side Of, Chicago Sugar. Records go find them
if you've never been, there go check them. Out really cool.
Spot but she was looking at all the records and
how much they they're selling them, for OR i trying

(39:00):
to explain her, like, yeah this is different than you,
know buying like A cd or. Something records are not
just a hobby for some.

Speaker 3 (39:07):
People it's a.

Speaker 2 (39:08):
Commodity it's it's a it's almost like an. Investment and
she's looking at the prices of some of these, things
And i'm just.

Speaker 3 (39:13):
Like, yeah you, KNOW i got all those records at.
HOME i have some of.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
These, now they're not all shrink wrapped in perfect condition
and pristine like the ones you see. Here but STILL
i think what it did for me and anybody out
there real windows What i'm talking. About you collect, records
or you collect anything for that, matter and if you
have a wife or a girlfriend or somebody who kind
of scratched their head it's, like why are you collecting this?

Speaker 3 (39:33):
Stuff what do you have?

Speaker 2 (39:34):
It it always helps validate why you're doing it with somebody, sees,
oh there's a there's a value for, this there's a supply.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
And a demand for, this like people want this. Stuff.

Speaker 2 (39:45):
Now it doesn't mean that she's talking me into selling,
them not, yet but it has come.

Speaker 3 (39:49):
Up you, know how many DO i?

Speaker 1 (39:50):
Have what are they?

Speaker 2 (39:51):
WORTH i don't. KNOW i don't even know how to
answer that. QUESTION i don't even want to answer that
question because they're not for. Sale but it was cool to,
see you, know her her experience in our record store like,
That she's never really been in anything like that, before
and to see, like oh my, god you, know she's
looking For Celene dion records And i'm trying to, find you,
know some old De las soul record or. Something so

(40:12):
it's kind of. Funny BUT i think they did have
A Selene dion record in. THERE i don't remember what
it costs because we weren't buying.

Speaker 3 (40:19):
It, whatever you know WHAT i.

Speaker 2 (40:21):
Mean SO i tease that at the, BEGINNING i want
to talk about this movie Called The man in The
White van and it's From legion M they distribute, it you,
know and they put out a lot of good movies
in the past and a lot of independent, stuff and
it's very it's kind of like Band, camp like they're
a company that is about the fans and supporting the.
Artists and you, Know i'm a horror fan AND i

(40:41):
like anything that's got a slasher thriller. Vibe and then
you put it in like a decade like the, Seventies,
Well i'm all. IN i, mean that's. It that's that's my.
Lane i'm not gonna get too detailed about, it but
definitely go check it. OUT i saw it On Amazon.
Prime it's on some other platforms as, well BUT i
definitely saw it On Amazon. Prime and it's basically if
you like the idea that In, halloween if you, Remember

(41:03):
Michael myers was driving around in that it wasn't a
what kind of car was that he was driving around
in that hearst or whatever it. Was it was like
looked like a family car, Almost but eventually he got
out the car and was, stalking you, Know Jamie Lee
curtis's Character lorie strode by foot, right he was standing
by bushes and by laundry and.

Speaker 3 (41:19):
Stuff but the beginning he was in a.

Speaker 2 (41:20):
Car this this movie is kind of like if the
killer never got out the. Car you just see a
white van and he's just sitting in. There you never
really see what he looks. Like, ACTUALLY i don't think
you ever see what he looks like in the whole.
Movie that idea of being stalked is something that always scares. Me,
like that's something That i've talked about here. Before you,
know WHEN i just take the train late at night
or walking down a street or, something nothing ever happened to,
me BUT i was, always you, know keep my head

(41:42):
on a. Squivel you, KNOW i never know what's behind,
me what's coming. Next so it's down this, alley, Right
so that, idea to me is more scary than. Anything
i'm not really somebody who watches something for the gore
and all. THAT i just like the suspense and the
idea that this could happen to. Me so that's what
usually scares me about. It right, now this this movie's
a little bit. Tamed a lot of, GORE i, mean
but there's a lot of stuff that happens in, it

(42:03):
and apparently it's based on a true. STORY i don't
know how much of it is, true but if you
go seek it, out definitely check it. Out it's a
little bit. Long it takes a little while to get.
GOING i do like how they showed the different years
leading up to the current, time so that his current
time was nineteen seventy FIVE i believe was seventy, six
but it showed like in one year he abducted, someone
in one, year he abducted someone else in another, year

(42:24):
and it kind of showed the build up to the
point where you're actually at the story quote unquote in
real time and you don't really know what his motives.
Are maybe that might be something that might turn you
off to it because they don't really get into, it
but just the idea that there's some do in the.

Speaker 3 (42:36):
Van he's just sitting, there and he probably ruined vans.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
For, everybody BECAUSE i, mean after, that you, know you
saw a van around the, corner you weren't supposed to
get into, it you, know he were.

Speaker 3 (42:44):

Speaker 2 (42:45):
Know kind of remind me of Death proof if you
remember that, movie That tarantino movie some years, back you,
know guy stalking somebody in a. Car the same kind
of idea but he used the car as a. Weapon this,
one the guy just in the van just kind of
creeping out and then eventually he gets out the van
and tries to put you in. There LIKE i, said
it kind of felt like if you took The Michael
myers aspect driving around to the car and stalking, you
but do that for the whole. Movie that's the whole.

(43:07):
Thing so definitely go check it. Out The man in
The White van has a cool name to. It if,
anything the titles should get you. Interested it's got some
people you've seen in other movies, before Like Ellie. Larder
Sean aston's in. It they played the. Parents definitely go
check it. Out it's pretty.

Cardiac Cowboys

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.
