Speaker 5 (02:26):
Like like we all we're all on the group tad
to be like yo, we gotta do something special, and
we just all wanted to salute and and yeah city
and the bill So.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
That's actually as matter of fact down here, Okay, Well
it took place in Miami. Yep, it was down here.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
I actually it just got the recording, thank you so much.
I just got down her recording a large part of Nellyville, okay,
and it's the second or third album on second album,
and we were down here hooping and sucking around and
ship like it and you know, got whack.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Won't put the band head on it.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
But then I was about to take the ship off,
and I was like, you know what I'm fucking with
let me you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
We was sucking with City.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
We was going into the coming out of the Free
City album. You know, wanted to keep representing, keep showing
my little brother some love because he was you know,
he was locked down.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Didn't get a chance to City. Yeah City.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
That's actually he did the rap on ride with me.
He wasn't never in the video and they were locked up.
So you know, we named the same Luna takeout matter
him and all of that ship and just started wrapping
the band aid like fucking, I'm my whole cousin down.
We're gonna ride this thing out until he get out
of the.

Speaker 5 (03:39):
Band aid, represented until he came out, until he came home.

Speaker 6 (03:42):
Yeah, okay, all the way got holy ship.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
You know. You know what's crazy? I heard, but I
didn't pay attention.

Speaker 5 (03:52):
So so I didn't pay attention as much as I
should rather. So you're saying that that wasn't a style statement, he.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Said, Yeah, it was him. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
When we first we was down here hooping because we
had rented a house or some ship and we had
the studio in the house and down there hooping and.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
Got fucked up. And then I was like, okay, cool boath.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
But we was coming out of the Free City album,
a little chick album. I was like, you know what,
this might be dope and I don't even lie something.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Some little chicks soup my head up, like that man ship.
Here we are, you know what I'm saying. And we
were throwing it up for City, so we kept it rolling.

Speaker 5 (04:32):
It's crazy because I was on tour and I got
I cought a cut right here. I don't know if
you remember, I could a cut right here, and I
had to put a band date on. It was like
this motherfucker can't get a cut no more. But let's
let's bounce around a little bit, righty. Super Bowl twenty
twenty five just happened right, and it's mixed reviews. Me personally,

(04:53):
I love to see hip hop on that stage, but
I can't ignore what other people are saying, like did
you feel because you did super Bowl? And uh, yeah,
well we did it. I did it twice. I did
it the first time.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
I think it was like oh one, and then yeah
we did it the next time.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
I did it.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
But don't nobody really remember us because the nipple came out.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Ja, yeah we was on that show. It was like me, nah, nah,
I mean everybody, you don't know.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
Who was on that motherfucker you know what I'm saying. So,
but yeah, we did it. No, Kendrick did Kendrick.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
I didn't know what. I don't know what people were
expecting him to do. Like Kendrick is. You know, he's
a rapper. He's a rapper. Like he wasn't go two steps,
he wasn't going you know.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
I think he did a great job. I think he
did a great job. I understood that it is the
Super Bowl, so as far as theatrically, some people could
be effecting a little more.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
But I think he did a great job. Man.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
I loved it, and he did him you know, And
who who I also think should get a lot of
credit is whoever put that damn show together because that
choreography and all that movement, and simultaneously, whoever did that
the behind the scenes, them mofwuckers, they need to raise.

Speaker 5 (06:24):
See because you see, that's something that's very important because
it's a lot because we understand that I'm gonna be honest,
as high as I've ever gotten in hip hop, I've
never got the super Bowl status, so I can't relate
to that, like you know what I'm saying, But can
you explain to people like how that shit is?

Speaker 1 (06:39):
You got to really rehearse, Yeah, you and that shiit
two weeks of rehearsals.

Speaker 5 (06:44):
It's like, you know, it's in that actual city that
the super Bowl's taking place.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Well, I think the first.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
Time we did it, we started rehearsals somewhere else. It
was like enclosed into a studio and they kind of
set a mock stage up just to run it through.
And the first time because they really didn't know because
I was like the first rapper to get a chance
to do any of it, and they had me on
that so motherfucking fast, and my heart pound and this
ship I'm down to that motherfucker. I'm racing like a motherfucker,

(07:13):
Like damn, I'm really at the super Bowl. So you
do all that rehearsal. We rehearsal for like eight it's
almost like three four hours. Then it moved to like
six to eight hours. Then then you might be rehearsing.
The closer you get might be like twelve hour fucking rehearsal.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
But you know, you got breaks and.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Ship in between her, and then yeah, the ship goes
so motherfucking fast. So but nah, man, I should have
this Bowl twice. Yeah, like I said, the second time it.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
Was it was Yeah, it was puff Me and puff
Kid Rock Jessica, Jessica Simpson. I don't know if just
Timberlake Simula. Yeah, yeah, he was the he was the coprit.

Speaker 7 (07:58):
Yeah he went unscathed.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
That kind of a lot of people like, wait a minute,
she did herself, you know what I'm saying, because I
don't remember. So Janny got the slack for that.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
Yeah, really, Janny caught a lot of motherfucker slack for that.

Speaker 8 (08:17):
Which now would have been nothing. And now the way
she is, well you have only fans ship.

Speaker 5 (08:28):
So netly, All right, let's let's let's take it from
the beginning, right. I always thought like your plot is
always was always a little harder than anybody else because
one you were like the first rapper coming from Saint
Saint Louis.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Is that correct to a certain degree? Okay, we had
we had We had a few.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
People man that that came up, that came up out
the lou but didn't get a chance to really get
to a h.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
Bull Stars of the lou you're saying, definitely, definitely was.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
We had a bunch of bulletproof records and I'm gonna
forget it.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
I'm gonna forget a bunch of people.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
At this time because you're on the spot and that's
kind of fucked up.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
So see, you know who.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
I know it was like bulletproof records because they were
really really close with us, but they were super gangster
nigga And that was the thing with Saint Louis. Saint
Louis rapp was super gangster, like like did.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
You give me that? Put your kids in the cars,
set the fuck up slapping with a pistol that time.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
But in uh agreed, you know, uh, And we was
more doing things a little different. So a lot of
people kind of looked at us at that time, like,
you know, they're doing more party and they're doing more
this and more of that. And we was kind of mixing,
mixing both of them together.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
But what you don't remember first time and I'm gonna switch,
first time I ever met Norri Okay, yeah, let's go.
It's like ninety I want to say, it's like ninety
eight penalty record.

And at that time, it.

Speaker 2 (10:26):

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Form real and he very tight shirt, very tight shirt,
and he was at the board and.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Y'all was he was either mixing or y'all was finishing up.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
No. No, And I was like, Yo, what the fuck
is this ship? You know?

Speaker 2 (10:43):
And I'm just sitting in the back and you was
walking around. You ain't know me from nobody on the
fucking planet.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
Man. You dapped me up and gave me, gave me
some smoke and ship. And I was just like, damn,

I and I was like, man, I funk with dude,

You gotta speaking. Try to be professional now you know
what I'm talking about, right what you don't talk? What
what you said? Let you play something. You know it's

(11:30):
not that smell me okay or yeah, because you was
in there. You you were talking about this smell me
and you was giving props out because you was like, no,
that's not my ship. I got that from somebody. If

(11:51):
you said I never take another man's glory, I was like,
that was all it is? What all over that that's
the only thing, man. I wanted my country grammar black.
I want to tell you that. But I got it,
got it. And one time you gave me a big compliment.

Speaker 5 (12:13):
Man, we were sitting there and you was like, Yo,
I got the word country Grandma. I thought of it
when I heard you say country Grandma because I said
it on Super the You we said listen.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
The whole vibe was.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
You were sitting so much, and it was it's hard
when you, like from the Midwest or from the South
to get the respect that a lot of people want
doing hip hop, Like, don't get it twisted all over
the world, all.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
Over the country.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Everybody know the Mecca is up there and everybody know that, right.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
So when you when you looking.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
At it like that, you it's almost like, yo, you
want certain validation.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
That's that's why the OG and one of them, you know,
one of my greatest rappers and influence, PIMC.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
He had us. He used to always have an issue
in New York to a certain degree because he started
early early late eighties, early nineties, and when he would
come up top, he would never get.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
The love talk about motherfuckers with boom.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
They wouldn't let him, you know, do what he do,
and that kind of put a stain on his view
about it. So us being where we're from, it's just like, yo,
you know, you want to rock New York. You want
to rock.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
Master Square Guardian who don't want to fuck up the Apollo.
You you want.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
That type of situation because you understand that this is
where this shit started. So if that doesn't come a
lot of times, you know you kind of.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
Feel like, well damn dad, why the fuck? Like hey
this a bitch, and then you'd be like, well fuck it.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Then were going home, you know so, But you was
never one of those people you will always give motherfuckers.

Speaker 8 (13:55):
It wasn't the people necessarily individually we wanted to help
you out.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
We have this argument all the time. Argument not an argument.

Speaker 5 (14:02):
We have a discrepancy, it's a disagreement. He always says
that New York never showed the South.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
Love from it.

Speaker 5 (14:08):
I'm saying it might have not been the artist per se,
It might have been the environment and saying, well, yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
I mean you had a lot of people that that
would speak out.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
Because they would come down. Motherfuckers hang out in Atlanta,
you hang out down here in Miami. You can't be
on too much bullshit because it ain't gonna go.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
Your way, you know what I'm saying. Like, but.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah, I would probably say the industry as a whole
because everything was based up there.

Speaker 1 (14:36):
They were step gate keeping. Yeah, he ain't got to
say it. Yeah, I mean, I mean, but I mean,
you know right I would say rightfully, not righteously, but
rightfully to a certain degree.

Speaker 2 (14:56):
It's like, yo, nigga, you know you're protecting what you've got,
and if you feel like you birth some ship, you're
gonna hold on to it till you understand that. Yo,
you might want to spread the love around you know
what I'm saying, and then you know, certain things happen.
But man, you've always been that man. I appreciate that.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
Man card shout. Years you were hanging out, a lot
of people didn't know you were saying hanging out.

Speaker 5 (15:22):
And because you didn't claim Saint Louis, it's because your
swag like kind of like reflected.

Speaker 2 (15:28):
Well, I was able to make listen. Saint Louis made
Saint Louis made me who I am, gave me my
talent all of that ship hanging out in New York
in the hall, and taught me how.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
To be a star, because you know New York, everybody
in New York, they ain't doing ship. Nigga, walk up
to you the CD, nigga, get the best CD. I'm
the cdn't recognize that, you know what I'm saying, like
you coming to yeah, the competation. So just getting a

(16:03):
chance to hang out in the Hall of Ear the other.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
Day, going up the penalty records and all that shit.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
I was just seeing how.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
Things worked from from a different perspective because where we're from,
we're looking to get in to the game, y'all. A
lot of New York and the game from New York
was looking like, yo, we are the game. So I
had to start thinking like I.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
Am the game.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
And then once I started realizing and start thinking like, yo,
I am the game, and that's when ship just just
like boom, Because like I said, again, you know, I'm
hanging out with.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
Niggas. We rolled up. We rolled up in Harlem. We
all in a van. I didn't know what the fuck
like the battle rap.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
Scene was like in New York. So I'm rolling with

the Teamsters. They was on Country Grandma and were riding
around Harlem.

Speaker 1 (17:02):

Speaker 2 (17:06):
And I'm talking about niggas just jumping out on the
corner on the corner and the niggas just like face to face,
shoulder the pot.

Speaker 1 (17:12):

Speaker 2 (20:34):
Like so I'm like, okay, well whatever, he did his
ship and I wouldn't even planned on saying nothing. And
then we got called to be like fucking with the
rock the mic remaxing property, and I was just like, yo,
you know what, I'm gonna say something, but I ain't

(20:55):

Speaker 1 (20:57):
I'm a student you're talking about.

Speaker 5 (21:02):

that shit.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
It just didn't make sense to me.

was like, nigga, you did the sprite commercial.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
Did no commercial commercial? I ain't didn't no commercial none
of that. You had Oozzi's before I knew what they was.
I see you on the picture with the motherfuckers dropping
now my street sweeping in the range. But now I'm
fucking the game, you know what I'm saying. So it
shit just sounded weird, bro.

Speaker 2 (22:28):
But did I fix it because I didn't understand the
politics of him having a project that he wanted to
introduce to the world, and he you're gonna go, You're
gonna go with the niggas. That's that's at the top us,
So let mess. You're gonna get depressed, you know what
I'm saying. So I took it personally because at that time, again,

Speaker 1 (22:56):
You know what I'm saying.

the face is different.

Speaker 5 (23:06):
But so do you think her rus was capping or
do you think that he was sincerely felt like that. No,
I think he actually saw opportunity because I did wind
up get a.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
Chance to work with him. He was doing a project
was more along the lines of a stop divileuce type
of project, and we got to hang out in Atlanta,
and I love him, you know what I'm saying, Like
I was, I was hurt. I was hurt, and at
that time I didn't do too much talking and ship
or talking about what we're gonna do.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
But you know, we was in the little nigga. We
were ready. We were like it rap is it? What
is it? Yeah? You know we had niggas. That was wild, bro.

Speaker 5 (23:48):

I was like, yo, man, I love you because like
you inspired you. You you would go so I would never.
He was like, no, it's never nothing personal. It was
it was this, you did the number one where I'm from.
You take a title of our song we at your Neck?

Speaker 1 (24:25):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (24:26):
Something like that, And I was like, okay, cool, no problem.

Speaker 5 (24:29):
I was bringing up or he said Kres already had
an album called Blue Yeah, some old school shi yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
But then he didn't say nothing to Jay. Yeah, like
what I do.

Speaker 5 (24:50):
So let me ask you a question. This is now,
this is me personally. You have a fellow of love
out of the out of the game.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
So yeah, you start questioning, questioning, do you want to
be in it? Yeah, once the politics start rolling in,
once I start figuring out, oh, once I start figuring
out somebody was getting paid for the promo tour. You know,

(25:22):
back in the day, that's how the Street Team Niggas
used to get you. They they take you.

Speaker 1 (25:27):
To the club. It was working to the Street team,
they take you it was working, yeah, but they'd take
you to the club. But you got the highest records
the Street Team niggas. Yeah, you know, the niggas.

Speaker 8 (25:40):
But the team ahead of the street teams, ahead of the
marketing department, was the one on the take.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
Okay, not the Street team guys. But because you knew,
well I don't know, you won't find out who's stealing.
On your go down the area, house starts shaking the bushes.
Whoever come to the door, yelling and lie, oh wow,
that's who got the money? You know what I'm saying.
So when we get would.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
Come out, you know, we got the hoidest song on
the thing. We was the first number one video on
one O six and park ever to day one O
six in Parker Country, grandmar with number one the first counter.
So when we would go into these cities, we are

(26:26):
getting told, you know, you go to the it's the routine.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
You know, you go to the UH, to the radio station,
do what you do. Boom.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
She's like, Yo, you at a club tonight, She's like,
all right, cool, It's like it's it's promo you on
the flyer.

Speaker 1 (26:42):

for except they.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
Walk through. They called it, yeah, promo walked through. They
promo walk through.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
But then you start finding out somebody got ten grand
of that, somebody got the team to that, somebody got that.
So then once you start bumking on that.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
That system.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
I think ours ended a little early, you know what
I mean, Like, because you know, when you hustle, somebody
making money and you're gonna smell it, you know.

that's that's that's kind of how it was down there.
And uh, I don't want to say his name right now,

(34:18):
but you got apple bottoms. Apple bottoms was a very
successful Copple Bottoms was more so five years being yeah,
because we had to go away for a minute. Years.
Does it take you twenty five No? Not not twenty
five years.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
I think we came out in oh three many years,
twenty one, twenty two with.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
Your pants is your bottoms? It is legally look to
get a drink.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
Yeah, so that came about, you know, hustle mentality, like
who's my biggest fans? Why am I steady trying to
sell men's clothes and he was trying to sell men's
I came out with the men's line first.

Speaker 1 (34:59):
What apple bottles? Oh okay, terrible?

Speaker 2 (35:19):
So yeah, we got we lost that in like oh
three oh four, and then you know it was made
a lot of money and.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
You had stores in Dubai.

Speaker 2 (35:31):
Yeah, the first class. Yeah, Dubai doesn't was out there
was out there early.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
Man, How the funk you knew to go to the
What the fuck? I didn't? Man?

Speaker 2 (35:45):
My partnered with what was up and you know what
I'm saying, And they knew what was going on over there.
So they was like, we had been to Dubai maybe
a couple of times obviously doing shows, but they was like, Yo,
they're opening up this big ass small out there. Either
it was just opening or it hadn't been opened that long, right,

(36:05):
And they were like, we're gonna get your store. And
I'm thinking we're just going to be in another store
in there. They was like, no, it's going to be
an Apple bottom store.

Speaker 1 (36:13):
Flagship's crazy. And we was over there and.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
Line was down the street around the corner all through that,
and I ain't think we had enough clothes in that
damn thing for because we were brand new, you know,
it was more about.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
The look than anything out. I think we had enough
product in that ship like that. Yeah, you realize how
your time you was though with everything.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
I try to be like the music, the music, the place,
the melody.

Speaker 1 (36:40):
All that, Like, yeah, you gotta stay that. You gotta
stay that way because I feel like.

Speaker 2 (36:45):
If you if you are creet eighteen, then you'll always
have an opportunity to win. But if you are on
a wave, if you if you surfing, you know, you
got niggas who eight and you got.

Speaker 1 (37:00):
Higgas who surfing.

Speaker 2 (37:01):
There's a lot of rappers out here they surfing, and
that's cool, Like whatever the wave is going, they can
pull their surfboard out and you know, ride the wave
of what's going on. But I always try to be
out there creating waves or or move in anything anything.

Speaker 1 (37:17):
Sometimes it works sometime and don't.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
But again the glasses have full, so I'm gonna figure
something out real quick.

Speaker 1 (37:23):
Na. Man, you were so ahead of your time with that.

Speaker 5 (37:26):
I appreciate it into the females and then I kid
you not looking. When I first heard that you were
in Dubai with a flagship star, I sat back and
I was just like, why, why wouldn't it be in
the lou n Two years later I realized how genius
that was. I was like, you know, I started to
go in Dubai and I was like, Wow, this motherfucker
was so ahead of his time. So I just wanted

(37:47):
to actually, if you know, but let's switch around real quick.
Do you think you're one of the fathers of the
rap sing along style?

Speaker 2 (37:57):
I definitely think I'm one of the ones that has
made popularized popularized.

Speaker 1 (38:03):
They took it and took it to a level.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
But I'm not going to act like, you know, I
ain't a product of Selo Green, act like I'm not
a product of arrested Development. I'm not going to act
like I'm not a product of Bone Thugs in Harmony
and like you know, all of these.

Speaker 1 (38:21):
Influences even was doing it right, damn along it.

Speaker 2 (38:27):
Yeah, but more so in a way of because you know,
when Bone Thugs came out.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
They were they.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
Were so ahead of their time as well, you didn't
have a lot of people emulating because I'm sure they
know of some people, but no people that was on
you don't you don't look to say it's another you
know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (38:52):
Also crucial conflict that was not.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
There's a lot of people that had influenced Nelly, But
when you're in the middle of the map.

Speaker 1 (39:03):
That's why if you look at any any genre of music, right,
A lot of the people who are super huge.

Speaker 2 (39:11):
Always come from the middle of the map. Why because
we are a mixture of everything, you.

Speaker 1 (39:17):
Know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (39:17):
Like New York, y'all can get trapped in your own bubble.
Sometimes everything is following New York, Cali the same way.

Speaker 1 (39:25):
Because y'all so big, y'all have you don't have to live.

Speaker 4 (39:31):
Well.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
Miami is a is a cult. It's almost like New Orleans.

Speaker 2 (39:36):
You see what I'm saying, And there's nothing more culturally
blacker than.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
New Orleans, like from the food, to speak, the language,
the impact, the music. You know, you go down there,
you like you walk into a time walk because they
have a parade coming down and it's incredible and it's
it's it's exhilarating. But when you're in the middle of
a map, you look at Nelly, middle of the map.
Kanye is the middle of a map, eminem. Whether you

(40:05):
agree with him not, He's the middle of a map,
the middle of the map, say Kanye, whether you are
or not, well, yeah, whether you agree with Kanye or not,
I mean, but he's an artist. I don't don't agree
to Kanye.

Speaker 2 (40:18):
To get life advice, I don't look to know entertainer
for life advice.

Speaker 1 (40:22):
That's the dumbest shit you could do.

Speaker 2 (40:24):
Like why, like your life mirrors are entertainer, You know
what I'm saying. We all could be looking at the
same tree, but we're definitely looking out of different windows,
you know what I'm saying. So, so I don't get
how people and I don't even mean to break into
that type of ship, but I don't see how people

(40:44):
follow celebrities for political advice. That's that's the dumbest shit ever,
Like why would it. Why would a celebrity give you
the best advice politically when.

Speaker 1 (40:58):
He really has to believe that. And me, as.

Speaker 2 (41:01):
A man, protector and a father first, everything I think
about is putting my family first. That's I have no
choice but to put my family first.

Speaker 1 (41:13):
Not saying I don't care about anybody else, but my
instant think like I'm gonna put your family before mine?
Why the fuck am I thinking about you first? So
why would I.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
Know what policies this gonna best suit you when I'm
trying to create my generational wealth and what's going to
help change the course of what my.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
Family has been following.

Speaker 2 (41:34):
So I owe that responsibility to my family. I can't
yo Pops had at all. What the fuck happened? He
worried about everybody else, what you mean, and he should
have been doing this when he worried about how he
look for everybody else. You can't do no shit like that.
I don't respect it. I don't respect it.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
Man, not as no.

Speaker 2 (41:55):
Man, Not if you're saying you a father, not when
you're saying you the head of the household, You the protector,
You the motherfucker that they.

Speaker 1 (42:01):
See at the doorbell.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
Nah, you could be the nigga on the porch and
tell your wife to go open the door.

Speaker 1 (42:06):
But my wife ain't opening nw door. I'm going to
the door now.

Speaker 2 (42:13):
You can talk to her once you get past me.
But I'm opening the door first, and I'm protecting everything
in my house. So my natural instinct is going to
be what best suits my house and if and since
I can't do that, I remain silent on.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
Politics like that. Like I'm not going to never tell.

Speaker 2 (42:34):
You who you should vote for, who you should vote for.
I would never tell you to do that, you know
what I mean? Like you should vote for Yeah, whatever, Chris,
there they be mixing up them policies. You think you
voting for this, and you fuck around and this is
on the bill, like damn nigga, I thought I thought
I was getting loans for underprivileged communities. Fuck around, and

(42:56):
you didn't cut some security for your granny.

Speaker 1 (43:00):
I didn't know. I told you mother. They didn't tell
me that. You know what I'm saying. So you know
that ship is it's a hard time to watch.

Speaker 5 (43:09):
Well, we want you to know that they Our show
is about giving people their flowers where they can smell them.

Speaker 1 (43:14):
I appreciate it.

Speaker 5 (43:15):
They thoughts when they can think of them, and they
drinks when they can drink it, and we want to
give you your flower I appreciate right.

Speaker 1 (43:20):
Now to your face, face to face, man, and man.

Speaker 8 (43:27):
Shut up.

Speaker 1 (43:30):
Let me just tell you something, Judge. Make it.

Speaker 5 (43:34):
We're gonna make it just retirment section as a snipe,
but we're gonna put it right over there, put it
right up there.

Speaker 1 (43:39):
But it was all day.

Speaker 5 (43:41):
Because you know, I'm gonna be honest with you, it's
only really three people in this industry that I actually
seen like come up from like like almost well, I
didn't know at the beginning stages in Saint Louis.

Speaker 1 (43:52):
But when you came to New York, I know your
story from there.

Speaker 5 (43:55):
I've seen your story, five story and fifty story and
I love that ship. Like it's like it's like you
ever see somebody and you just know that they're gonna
they're gonna do it.

Speaker 1 (44:07):
Like I know. I say that and it sounds so simple.
But the truth I saw like that I saw.

Speaker 5 (44:12):
Yeah, when I saw for real, I was just like,
he's weird, but he's gonna make it. He's gonna go
like it's not me, it's not me. But guess what,
I'm not me the world. I'm a minute person. The
world is different.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
Ya.

Speaker 5 (44:26):
You know what I'm saying, Like being hood is like
two percent of the world's population. They can't really I
made those Yeah, but what I'm saying everyone can't relate.

Speaker 1 (44:35):
To being the hood thigga, you know what I'm saying.
So I to moving on.

Speaker 5 (44:38):
We got your flowers, yo. Now it's a quick time
of slim. Well, let's talk about the alcohol real quick.

Speaker 1 (44:44):
Ye shine, Yeah, it's yeah mode shine, it's a moonshine.
So again, ain't nobody slanging that.

Speaker 2 (44:54):
And again it's about knowing your knowing your lane knowing
who you can or take serving services to a different ship.
So uh, most shine right here, you know. Yeah, well
this is the thing though too. We actually got a
chance to uh man, I don't say, yeah, you gotta

(45:14):
be careful with this ship.

Speaker 1 (45:15):
I ain't even not to tell you.

Speaker 2 (45:18):
So at the time I had partner with somebody different,
but actually the same thing I had to do with
Apple Bottoms before we blew up. Now I got to
do it with this because you know, when you first
getting into things, you sometimes you you know, your first
record deals is not your best deal. Find out what

(45:39):
the fuck is going on, and you find out the
lanes and the avenues that you need to go down
to get to the place you talking about.

Speaker 1 (45:46):
So but this is something man, that.

Speaker 2 (45:49):
You know, kind of came up with because I'm actually,
like you were saying, being kind of ahead of the game,
being one of the first people that was able to
be in a different lane and still be itself as
far as like country music, pop music and all this
other ship and the country world.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
And I always because the niggas drink moonshine.

Speaker 2 (46:11):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, country niggas fuck moonshine.

Speaker 1 (46:16):
Up.

Speaker 5 (46:17):
I've seen the episode on Netflix about Moonshine. Yeah, they
were still there was I was illegal and all that.

Speaker 1 (46:25):
Like I like that ship. This is the legal moon.
This is the legal moon shine right here. Man. So yeah,
like again, you gotta be careful with it. Man, it
is very tasty, I would say in a play, Uh,
that could be dangerous. Yeah, that's the thing. You look
up and you then fucked up the whole bottle, and
sometimes that may not be good because I see it's

(46:45):
peace flavor. Yeah, gotta little got a little flavor.

Speaker 5 (46:48):
Definitely like the ladies to get a little saucy. I
respect that because I mean they got to pour their
own drinks. Yeah, everybody.

Speaker 1 (47:08):
The rules of the game. This is our drinking game. Ship.
I'm gonna be drinking. Mm hmm. Now I'm gonna do some.

Speaker 2 (47:16):
Most shots since we well, wait a minute, how many questions?

Speaker 1 (47:21):
It's questions that depends on you to drink. Okay, look,
let me give them. Let me give him the decide
what he wants to do. We're gonna give you two choices.

Speaker 8 (47:29):
If you pick one of the choices, we're not drinking.
But if you say both are neither, like you don't
want to answer basics.

Speaker 1 (47:35):
Then we all drink. We all shot.

Speaker 8 (47:37):
Are we drinking with you? We don't leave you if
you don't answer the question. But if you answer, then
we don't.

Speaker 1 (47:40):
We don't drink. Keep them. Okay, so everybody's gonna be
drinking most you're gonna be drinking shots. What the fuck
is that game? Don't worry about it. We are drink.

Speaker 5 (47:54):
Yeah, you do a shot. Okay, I'm gonna set it off.
Oh no, I'm not all ready.

Speaker 8 (48:01):
Mason Cam, Mason.

Speaker 1 (48:04):
Cam, yep, and that you got to this is about h.

Speaker 2 (48:13):
I would probably say Killer only because.

Speaker 1 (48:19):
From the time I met Killer, he's always showed me love.

Speaker 2 (48:24):
Mace, and this just could have been where he was
at in his life that I was in when I
was introduced to him.

Speaker 1 (48:34):
He was already with puff.

Speaker 5 (48:35):
No, yeah, that was already could have been cool to
love be because.

Speaker 1 (48:38):
Yeah, exactly, yeah, I was with cooler, but I don't
used to. Don't like how you shipped it all at
that time.

Speaker 2 (48:46):
My my little brother Cardan, he shopped on Cardi because
Cardy was in Harlem World and he kicked at that.

Speaker 1 (48:52):
Time, he had kicked Cardy out of Hall.

Speaker 2 (48:55):
Yeah, and didn't let Cardy be in the video that
first video with the halling car done.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
Call on Cardi B. It's gonna No, I said, yeah,
Cardi B. You know, I said, Cardi B in the
video card everything, Yeah, Cardi BE. I don't know what
did I say? No, No, you're right, You're right. You
was right. We heard that Cardi B was in the video. No,
not that. Now are we talking about it?

Speaker 9 (49:26):
I can't see I I don't know run.

Speaker 2 (49:40):
But no, at that time, Cardy was like fifteen years old.
He was young man, and it really fucked him up
that whatever happened happened. And I was that's when I
was just trying to get on and I saw how
I hurt.

Speaker 1 (49:52):
He was out like, man, don't worry about that ship. Man,
I'm about to get on.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
Man, We're gonna you know what I'm saying. And I
had a disdained for Mace.

Speaker 1 (50:02):
And so is that probably why when y'all met the energy,
Was it you more or was it him? No? I
mean eventually it got a ship ship ton better figured
it out.

Speaker 2 (50:13):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because again it was it wasn't that
he felt the way that he felt. But again, if
I come in there, if I come with you and
the door, were leaving out that the same mother fucking
dough together.

Speaker 1 (50:24):
I ain't. I ain't bringing nobody with me. I ain't
leaving with you know.

Speaker 2 (50:27):
So at that time, Cardy was my with my family,
so he had her part of the family and I was.

Speaker 1 (50:35):
Like, shit, fuck that nigga. But it wasn't like that.

Speaker 2 (50:37):
It wasn't always like that, because Mason's cool as fuck
now you know what I'm saying, and we're super dope.

Speaker 1 (50:41):
But from the time I met Killer, it's all love.

Speaker 5 (50:45):
Right, This is a controversy question no ship Kendrick or Drake.

Speaker 2 (50:52):
As far as it's whatever here like that, Like asked that, Well, yeah,
I mean you can't. You can't take away the artists
of Drake. You can't take away what is what his
artistry is to dude make hiss like he was making
his He's doing his thing. Kendrick is Kendrick, He's he's
a I don't know, like because I want to say

(51:16):
Kendrick is holding down a whole coast to a certain degree,
but then someone might say Drake is holding down a
whole country. But you see what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (51:24):
But it's a great point, but it's a difference of
feelings taking a shot.

Speaker 1 (51:28):
Now, I'm just help you outness.

Speaker 4 (51:31):
He was.

Speaker 1 (51:34):
He was about to get very statistic.

Speaker 5 (51:39):
Shot because because you go to the like skinkarate class
with Drake, we know that what.

Speaker 1 (51:48):
I'm saying is enjoy the explanation. And you ruined me.
I'm sorry, I want to drink. If you look at
if you look at Kendrick, you you you.

Speaker 2 (51:56):
Think of more of a traditional hip hop superstar.

Speaker 1 (51:59):
When you look at you just think of superstar.

Speaker 2 (52:04):
You know what I'm saying, even though he is hip
hop and not saying he ain't did his did his thing,
but it's just different.

Speaker 1 (52:11):
Like, I don't know, I don't know why.

Speaker 2 (52:12):
People be so mad at him, though, I mean I
understand to a certain degree. But again, it was never
about relating to Drake's life. I've never the man. He
started at the bottom, like he said, he was living
at his mama house. My mama never had a house.
I don't know if his bottom is his mama's house.

(52:34):
I'm not again, I'm not looking at life advice from
somebody who mama got a house.

Speaker 1 (52:40):
I'm listening to these bangers.

Speaker 2 (52:42):
He making the nigga making banging ass rackers, he knocking
these motherfuckers out, So you know, I praise his.

Speaker 1 (52:49):
Hit making artistry. Kendrick is.

Speaker 2 (52:55):
Part of coming from a different coming from where we
come from.

Speaker 1 (53:00):
That's how you look at it.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
I don't think Drake came from where we came from.
But when somebody makes it coming from where you come from,
you look at them a little different.

Speaker 1 (53:09):
You see what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (53:10):
They get a little bit more of a validation because
you understand and you understand the fight that they had
to to get to where they are, and you could
be like, man, they might not have made it, you
know what I'm saying. But if somebody who started somewhere
that you can't relate, you just appreciate what they do,

(53:30):
Like Drake is a phenomenal artist. Kendrick is somebody who
you be like, Yo that I know that Nigga, I
could have knew Kendrick. I probably would have never known Drake,
That's what I'm saying. So I appreciate Drake's music and
the artistry.

Speaker 1 (53:48):
And I took the shot for noh, so you picked
I guess if you didn't. And I don't like politics,
I just did. I like that. Chiggy or Ja Kwan,
the lou wants you to take a shot. I definitely

(54:09):
was gonna do that. Do it anyway, I know what
ye m hm.

Speaker 2 (54:14):
Now, Jay Kwan is my nephew, like literally, so you're
not now, but it's family to the sense of Jay
Kwan was super young when he came into the game.
You know, when you come into the game and you're fifteen,
sixteen years old, nigga and you you you're the one
paying the bills, it's a different life.

Speaker 1 (54:33):
You know, it's a different life when you're that young.

Speaker 2 (54:36):
And now you go from being told what to do,
to tell the niggas what to do and you don't
even know, you're not old enough to know why you're
telling him to do it.

Speaker 1 (54:45):
So that's just a difference.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
Even Missy, Missy, but I like Eve, but Missy, if
I had to pick.

Speaker 1 (54:58):
Miss like, man, we got your money. Look you said
that ship boy, there's I want the next answer? Sexy
read a glorilla red. Yeah, yeah, I'm always right for
the loop like this, how the loo work outside of

(55:20):
the loop. Can't nobody talk? You can't. You can't do that.
Now we'll talk about each other in the loop, right,
Like you know what I mean, but if you're not
from there, because we don't have enough.

Speaker 2 (55:31):
We don't have a lot of artists like y'all got.
We ain't got a lot of motherfuckers like Atlanta got
to be able to look like something, we.

Speaker 1 (55:39):
Are really all we got. So we can't do that.
You know what, I man not not to know outsiders. I
can't do that.

Speaker 5 (55:47):
I'm gonna tell you something. I was hosting the BT
red carpet.

Speaker 1 (55:52):
Hm.

Speaker 5 (55:54):
Oh, it's the only wrapper I've ever ran from in
my whole life.

Speaker 1 (55:58):
That you ran from.

Speaker 5 (56:01):
Sexy rad only rapper I've listened. I might have caught
losses in life or never caught losses in this industry.
I won every battle I've had it rap right me?
Just I mean, I ain't talking about battle, but Sexy
Red the only person that made me run. Why is
that I'm on the red carpet? She read, just walking

(56:23):
through you know what? You know what I mean, sex
he Red is walking through.

Speaker 1 (56:26):
The nigga with the headbong's laughs. She stopped.

Speaker 5 (56:29):
She stopped, and she looked at the red carpet and
she must have said, Yo, I'm gonna make this different,
So mind you I'm with I'm with the other wingers
over there. You know what I mean, Like these niggas,
these niggas don't got no platinum records.

Speaker 1 (56:40):
These niggas ain't made it in R album. Niggas ain't discussing, motherfucker.
For I'm standing there with a bunch of friends, you
know what I'm saying, only ship. But Sexy Ragon comes.

Speaker 5 (56:52):
She gonna recognize me, and she gonna you know so.
But I'm sitting there and she looks at all all
the franks, she says, she pulls out her money and
starts making it rain. Ran my thinking it was a
picture of the sixty red making you read you.

Speaker 1 (57:18):
People the you know I did the thirty youngs out.

Speaker 5 (57:26):
I was like, yo, that's the last thing I needed
to be on tubal Oh man, what's the ship too?

Speaker 1 (57:31):
We too? We too me? And I'm like.

Speaker 10 (57:39):
A d what what.

Speaker 1 (57:43):
So if any there's no rapper in this world made
me rad. But I give you you probably had the
first nigga she made.

Speaker 2 (57:53):
Because Shy mean that man, she means that if anything
she she she is definitely putting on.

Speaker 1 (57:59):
But she's authentic, man, She's authentic and gonna respect it. Like, yeah,
I believe our heart.

Speaker 8 (58:06):
Yeah, that's what I know that metro booming or murder Beads's.

(01:00:12):

the Midwest, we didn't really get a chance to enjoy
pun right.

Speaker 2 (01:00:21):
Because we only had a selective fewer songs that that
that that was able to make it.

Speaker 1 (01:00:26):
On the station in Saint Louis and down there. So,
but you know, his genius and just his his lyrical flaw.

Speaker 2 (01:00:34):
It's definitely underrated as a lyricist, pun is I mean
you know, then you're talking about Biggie, who's probably regarded
as one of the the best, off one of the best,
depending on.

Speaker 1 (01:00:45):
Where you ask it. So but I'm gonna say Biggie,
but no disrespect to pun at all. You ever got
to meet Big No, okay, no, no, that don't got

I mean, like as a younger, But them old niggas,
one of them old Saint Louis niggas over there, even
he probably know a little bit more Bob know, a
little bit more detail about what could actually happened like that,
because Bob was you know, Bob was like a local
terrorist at the time. He used to he used to
own the hottest club in Saint Look. Well his family

(01:01:42):
did call club Casino. They used to call it the Beano.
That's where we used to break some of our records.
In Ward six point eight, who actually broke country Grandmar
That's the club he was in, and it used to
be the hottest club in the lou And you would
come there like when you like still in high school.

Click or the fab the whole family or some shit.
So it's ram nigga. We come to the door, it's
usually it's only five dollars. It's only five dollars going
through the front door. Twenty five dollars usually, you know,
on a regular Saturday night at the side dough. So
I always come through the side door, nigga, because I

(01:02:45):

Speaker 2 (01:02:47):
You know what I'm saying, Like even if I were
old enough, I still wasn't gonna fucking get it, So
I'll go through.

Speaker 2 (01:15:34):
And actually I wasn't even the first uh person in
my family to make a record. My uncle Rudy Rested
Peace was the first one to actually make a record
in nineteen eighty eight. That was in my family, saying,
last thing, everything Rudy hains and that's who got me
in the music.

Speaker 1 (01:15:49):
He used to have me like at.

Speaker 2 (01:15:51):
Seven eight nine years old singing Jackson five records and
had my whole family is back up and shit like that,
and taught me notes and chords and shit. And you
know what I'm saying, so yo, my love for music
came as a whole other ship. But I was playing
sports baseball, football, basketball, basketball with my was my my
weakest spoke.

Speaker 1 (01:16:12):
But everything else I'm now God damn good. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

I do no styles, I love them, but I have
more of an interaction, you know what I'm saying. But

(01:17:12):
all of them, you know what I'm saying. So ya, Yeah,
that's fucked up too, because they.

Speaker 2 (01:17:19):
Ship kind of got stalled by some unfortunate things. Because
they could have they they was on fire, they had
a big could have had a hell of a run,
especially I mean they had it though, no, they definitely did.
That would show you that it could.

Speaker 1 (01:17:36):
It could have been because the run they had, they
had to overcome so much ship career wise to be
able to do that so you know what it's like.
It's just like Nigga.

Speaker 8 (01:17:48):
If you ain't fucked up the comp money, you have
a lot more, but you went to the crap game.
But it shows you what kind of club they are
to overcome it.

Speaker 1 (01:17:54):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 8 (01:17:55):
Like what the verses has done for them when they've
done after that is crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:17:58):
No, man, they they they top five goat group. I
respect that acting or rapping. Rapping. Actually, so when they
came without rapping, right ya, like some of a bitch good,

don't think I know the brothers.

I don't know if I I don't want to respect
them like if I ever met him before, you know.
But I'm saying I haven't interacted with them enough to
know if I have or something like that. So I
don't want to disrespect them because they hauled the fuck.

You see what I'm saying. So Rick Ross and Fat
Joe Joe Joe Joe Joe's Jones's family not love for
love for Roth, but Joe's family. I want to point
something out to you. A lot of people don't know that.

Speaker 5 (01:24:46):
I was hanging out with jay Z and Fat Joe
had one of the biggest records all the way up.
I believe that's what it was, right all the way up,
and Joe hit me. I was like, please hold me up,
will hold And I was like, I don't how to do.

Speaker 1 (01:25:00):
That turn around? Yeah, you know when they had beef.
They have beef.

Speaker 8 (01:25:07):
This is when they the beef was kind of like that,
I mean, but they were still weren't on talking terms
what I mean, what I mean.

Speaker 5 (01:25:14):
So then Joe hit I hate Bleak and me and
Blee was like, let's let's try to bleak this. Yeah,
let's try to make this settle. So we got Joe
and jay Z on the phone, and then from there,
these motherfuckers, Uh look, they did the remix and everything,
and me and Bleak is like, Nigga, we they you

(01:25:35):
niggas like they owe us, Like like Nigga, we did
this and hip hop hip hop all y'all too.

Speaker 2 (01:25:41):
That's how I feeling. All that ship got to happen
for a reason. Them chain reactions, you know. So let
me ask you, Oh, that wasn't that wasn't that wasn't
there you was.

Speaker 1 (01:25:52):
Get you let me get Yeah, this from the glass
like this is when I did the Joe. But I
feel like this is what Joe is doing to you.
I feel like Joe feels like he put you on
a shanty back together. You need twenty percent on the

(01:26:21):
baby because he said I'm not negotiating that. He said
versus like versus.

Speaker 5 (01:26:31):
He invited you correct and then she was on joe
Rules side, yo, And I ain't gonna lie to you.

Speaker 1 (01:26:36):
That famous walk when you walked across that stage, Yo,
it was uncomfortable, but you was going for that goal. No,
I was going for It's.

Speaker 5 (01:26:45):
Uncomfort, I mean so legendary when you you performed and
you see her and you saying I'm going to.

Speaker 2 (01:26:54):
Get by from the whole time, from the whole time
I walked there, and in truth to the thing, because
I wasn't expecting that I had somebody with me.

Speaker 1 (01:27:01):
When I came there. No, I'm just saying, no, I did.
I had somebody with me when I came there, just
because I wasn't on that. I'm like, I'm heurre for Joe.
My name, and then we come and when we get in,
we walk down the steps and into my mama is
on the phone, and she turned around and look up
at me and like like she saw a funk of ghosts. Nigga.

(01:27:23):
It was just and I just grin and walked past.

Speaker 2 (01:27:28):
And when we went in Joe joe dressing room and
we were just hanging out. So I guess she gave
the world whatever the case. But I didn't want the intensity.
I didn't want it because I'm here celebrating these brothers music,
you know, because I fucked with Joh. I fucked with
Joe obviously, and they fuck with each other, so you
don't want it to be crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:27:50):
So I didn't, you know. I was like, man in
me old over here and break the ice. That's what
I That's what that was. So that's that's because that walk,
That walk was serious. Yeah, I remember, I forgot who
was in my way. I think it was Josh. They
had the nerve to be performing going by and move

(01:28:14):
I think I bumped. I was like, oh, but you
saw rub the back, nigga, don't want to slow that
down to show the rub on the back. They I
was like, yo, you you with all.

Speaker 8 (01:28:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:28:25):
She that was I'm gonna be honest with you, and
she was trying to act tough. She was like, she
walked over, you know, Chris. Chris like, what you want
to do, babe? Chris said, what you want to do?

Speaker 2 (01:28:45):
He was gonna stop me, you know what I mean.
So she gave she gave a rub on the back. Man,
she knew what time it was in order. Now we'll
move along, No, we.

Speaker 1 (01:28:58):
Do kind of Joe. Uh, Joe was a good Yeah.
Joe was always you guys gotta get back together. Something
does not feel right of our business, right, Nelly? What

but you know how I feel about my sister. She's
the greatest. You have to get back Joe. I'm not
with that. It's not going down. I'll call you. So, yeah,
he was. That was crazy, I guess so that that

(01:29:45):
was the plain place I put them back together. He
can't have that credit, he can't hit that credit because
if it funk up again, I know what to call
God damned Joe too. Okay, the chronic or all eyes

Speaker 1 (01:33:08):
Easy. I'm gonna be That's what I listen.

Speaker 5 (01:33:17):
I wasn't got did you say East coast. What you mean,
you know what I'm saying is back then, how they
didn't versus j D.

Speaker 1 (01:33:27):
Smart? He knew he didn't want he didn't he didn't
he didn't he didn't want no part, He didn't want
no parts. Jad he knew that Puff is smart, Puff,
ain't he? Biggie Catalog Total Catalog, Biggie Catalog told me
more than that.

Speaker 2 (01:33:43):
Matt Craig, Matt Craig, Matt what now you you're now
you again at this time? Why do you think he
wanted the whole versus in New York? JD can hold
versus anywhere.

Speaker 1 (01:33:55):
Puff. Puff only wanted the whole versus in New York,
Massa regarded. He only wanted to have it in New York.
But it's the biggest arena. He only wanted to have
it in New York, in the biggest arena of the world,
in the world. I only wanted to have it in
the world most famous. You said, the biggest, most famous.

(01:34:17):
Change your language, brother, whatever you want to take it,
go mine, whatever you want to take with the Massacre
regard is the biggest basketball platform in the world. You entertainment,
You do realize when you're talking about JD. You talk,
I'm not taking that away from j You're talking about
going all the way back to to create Christ always backwards.

(01:34:42):
I want my closet backwards. You know what I mean?
Like you, what did he didn't do? Though? Four days?
What is it that he didn't do? No? No, I
can't take nothing from JD.

Speaker 4 (01:34:53):
Ship.

Speaker 5 (01:34:54):
Yeah, I gotta give JD all his fucking accolades, all
his props, all his flowers.

Speaker 1 (01:34:58):
I got you take it, but you gotta go back
to New York just because I saw it more. You
know what, I respect it. I respect it. I already
told you how we get down. It's just I told
you I'm gonna be biased for the loop call it
so I don't feel like I'm being biased.

Speaker 5 (01:35:12):
What I feel like I'm being is more of what
I saw, Like I got to see this a little
bit more.

Speaker 1 (01:35:17):
I told you everything you see impacts you more exactly
than what you heard.

Speaker 2 (01:35:22):
But that's why I said, y'all only basing it off
of what New York media gave you, what New York
radio gave you.

Speaker 8 (01:35:30):
What and you see what I'm saying, and what would
be the criteria. Jermaine actually produced hands on most of
his records.

Speaker 1 (01:35:38):
Well, so where are you going there?

Speaker 8 (01:35:39):
Ain't what I'm saying, ain't no just produced. Like you
know what I'm saying about the criteria. Fucking have a criteria.
Dreams that we talked about. You gotta have a criteria.

Speaker 1 (01:35:52):
Let them battle. I think.

Speaker 8 (01:35:55):
So what you want to puff to do record, you
gotta have a criteria. If nothing man is on the record.

Speaker 2 (01:35:59):
I mean, if you get a producer credit for the
motherfucker even if you just said that, but see what's
going you can get the producer credit. He gonna get
the right credit. And then he probably referenced the fucking song.
Because you can lock JD in the room by himself,
he will come out with the song. He can't perform it,
he can make the beat and he can write it smash.

(01:36:21):
You can lock him in that motherfucker with an MP
and he will sit right by that motherfucker and do
that write that bitch melodies boom, And then you start
sounded like this is my confession.

Speaker 1 (01:36:35):
This man, I thought, I can say. Yeah, So you
start hearing him about his stories that this NIXT sniper
stories that he put in the record other people, that's
his story. We know to these records carefully. Now that's
his story. Man, confess confession. Oh along, let me get

(01:37:01):

Speaker 2 (01:39:42):
Family love Yay Midwest you know love Yeah's artist Street.

Speaker 1 (01:39:49):
Let's say that ship. You know what I'm saying. I
don't know what my nigga be all sometimes like man,
you got to help yourself at some point. Just got
your money. You're gonna go a hand again, nigga.

Speaker 2 (01:40:05):
Like you want to edit that like you said about
I'm just saying like, but good lord, you know you
just be watching like, oh.

Speaker 1 (01:40:14):
We love you, but she I don't know, go ahead,
go for it. You won't take a shot. I'll take
a shot. No, no, no, no, take a shot. And
this is not let's just do it because you know why,
why is that jeers? What the fuck is that tea
or something? Nigga? Because here you can trust definitely listen,

(01:40:37):
you're my friend. They make that. It's called Mama Wana.
Who what it's called mama wana? They make that and
Mamajuanna can't do it. He made this is a story.
He's made. He makes up the story, make up a story.
Just let him do it with dirty feet. What nigga,
you just told me cocaine and chicken fried chicken. I'm like, no,

(01:40:57):
I know. That's why I'm believing you. I knew. No,
you can't come back to their stories. You can't tell correct.
You could have told me anything after that out of
the analog or digital to do?

Speaker 4 (01:41:10):
What?

Speaker 1 (01:41:10):
Nigga? I am computer illiterate. I don't know. So he's
analog my song Else, nigga, he didn't. He been hooking
up the electronics and since he was twelve, that's it.
Once I realized he knew what the fuck he was doing.
That was a wrap that market sounds like we taking
the man. That boy was nine years old, and the
video game in every TV in the house. That was it.

(01:41:36):
So this is I don't know what the fuck do
analog do? Listen how hot he was created? I mean,
I know of it. But I'm saying you saying analog
or like like you know, recording on tape, recording on computer.
I ain't saying that. Really, you're talking about real real
Yeah exactly, that that's analog, yo, wa for you so

(01:41:56):
far away from that's like you don't really.

Speaker 12 (01:42:06):
Technical terms and ship, you know, but it's what we
recorded on no real, the real digital that.

Speaker 1 (01:42:25):
Analogue as well. Okay, ship, well ain't that not? Yeah again?
Because real, the real you ain't that you go, uh,
you're real. The small dads are for that.

Speaker 8 (01:42:39):
You the real did you had the dance with with
then you have to look at and the little Deaths
were digital.

Speaker 1 (01:42:45):
That was when we went digital.

Speaker 2 (01:42:47):
Okay, see my album Nigga? All right, I didn't know
that say that like that?

Speaker 1 (01:42:53):
It's like you like so that? Really? I said, my
asked this. Let back to the interview. Okay, loyalty or respect?
H I think if you if you give me your loyalty,
then you respect me, because you ain't gonna get your

(01:43:15):
loyalty to a motherfucker you don't respect you know what
I'm saying, Like, who would do that? So it's got
to be It's got to be loyalty, you see what
I'm saying. Because I can say I respect you but
not be loyal to you.

Speaker 2 (01:43:30):
But I can't be loyal to you if I don't
respect you, so it'll no. I'm just saying, it's just logic.
You know, you didn't know that analog or that.

Speaker 1 (01:43:47):
Or so what are we doing? I said, loyalty?

Speaker 10 (01:43:50):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 1 (01:43:52):
It was beautiful. It was so beautiful. I got to
take a shot with you.

Speaker 5 (01:43:58):
Yo, you get that tell my wife on your no,
I feel like you was gonna I feel like I
was gonna jump me earlier you text me and say
I'm call you with my wife.

Speaker 1 (01:44:07):
I was. I was mad, nervous. Oh no, I was
on the phone. I was on the phone, and what
I was like, damn to entertainers going on to save
my son. She was trying to put some ship on
him and take pictures. She was you know, she was
dressing him up. This nigga is the only nigga never

(01:44:28):
leaves that he changes clothes to change rooms. He never
leaves out like I never seen you. So yeah, I've
never seen what. He changed clothes like, he got on
another outfit. Happened like it's new. She's she's done, man.
But she's yeah, she's a great. She's a great mother. Man,

(01:44:51):
she's a great. God damn me mother. But it's just like,
damn bro, I feel for use. When he gets older
and he gonna be like damn co. It might be like,
how is it being the father? Is this your first
time being the father?

Speaker 4 (01:45:09):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:45:13):
No shot, no shot, No, of course you ain't let
me finish.

Speaker 13 (01:45:24):
Okay, you know what I mean, like being a new
being a new father at this age because your son
no wait, I don't know what right now.

Speaker 8 (01:45:35):
We're talking about the new six months Okay, okay, you're.

Speaker 1 (01:45:40):
Gonna have meadow glasses. That's a scary part of give
young kid. I mean, it's it's possible, It's very possible.

Speaker 2 (01:45:47):
But I mean, you know, again, you get to this
age you don't have children before, it's a little different.
Like my daughter was first, so when she would cry
in the middle of the night, you know, you pop up.

Speaker 1 (01:45:59):
And then she also your daughter, so you know, as
a dad, it's just actually it's actually like, what's she crying?
You know, you get up in the middle of the night.
By the time my son was born, that nigga be
yelling through the night, I'm like, yoh, he was like
you good. That nigg gotta learn. You know what I'm saying.
Everybody just be running to you as a man in America, Yeah,

(01:46:22):
I'm teaching them not you know, you know, because your
your girls when you were father, it's just a little different.
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:46:31):
I feel like they all can come home. And I
fucked up because I told my daughter, Yeah, baby, don't
worry about it. You can always come home. You always
got a room. My son he could come home, but
he get the couch. Eventually he got to get the
fuck out. He got to here, man, he got.

Speaker 1 (01:46:45):
To You got to go. You can always come home.

Speaker 2 (01:46:47):
And sometimes it may not ship when shi it don't
work out. I ain't knocking that because you got to
get back up on your.

Speaker 1 (01:46:53):
Feet, you know what I'm saying. But just no, nigga,
this is a temporary. But you know, oh no, you
go get out, you gonna work, you gonna do something.
You ain't lay up on me. No, not as a man,
not as a man. And then I said, so she
like that to my daughter as far as you know, baby,

(01:47:14):
come home and let's just say she's always Daddy's girl.
Oh yeah, one h two. Yeah, but she won't leave.

(01:47:35):
She took it literally, and I can't. I can't. Yeah,
I can't do nothing. No, she don't stand like that.
That's my baby. Better. No, she still thinks she's Daddy's
the little girl that she is. That's a good thing, man, No,
it's a great thing. It's a great fucking things. Great
that you can right that you work for. Yeah, that's

(01:47:57):
my cat though.

Speaker 5 (01:47:59):
So it leads me to my next question is going
to be very awkward. After the fun we just said,
I'm with you, but I also got to ask you
about tip of trail.

Speaker 1 (01:48:11):
Yeah, what about credit card? She famous and the ass.
It wasn't my idea. You do know that though it
was It was the ladies. No, it was the No,
it was was that was that white chocolate? I think
of some of the dances.

Speaker 2 (01:48:27):
Yeah, because we was running out of ones and I said,
all I got is my card. I said, I'm a
swife and.

Speaker 1 (01:48:33):
She said, go for it. You go too fast. She
probably charged tell yeah, because first off was BT cut.
It was already out. It was already out.

Speaker 2 (01:48:49):
Yeah, okay, it was already out. And at that time,
like I told you, you know, we was making all
kinds of music. We make music for everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:48:55):
So I was like, fuck it, I'm watching this show.
I want to make a video for this ship. You
know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (01:49:00):
Like let me Yeah, it shout out to Miami because Sami,
Uncle Luke. You know what I'm saying, Oh ship, you
know what, I'm gonna shut up.

Speaker 1 (01:49:12):
But he threw one of the most famous Uncle Luke
parties in Saint Louis, Louis, well he used to do.
He did a beach party, a fake beach.

Speaker 2 (01:49:21):
Party, and say, look, you know, we ain't got no
goddamn beaches and no ship.

Speaker 1 (01:49:24):
But for somebody, these niggas brought in trucks of saying
all kind of and did some ship beach and niggas
made the beach right there, right on the roof front too, right,
not too far from what a casino ato in the
Four Seasons. But he brought Luke, and Luke brought Miami

(01:49:45):
about the ladies. Thank God for Luke, God bless Luke man.
So this is where the wipe happened. Oh, this is
where I would probably say my wanting to put my
own video on be to your version of that well

(01:50:06):
because the peep show.

Speaker 2 (01:50:08):
Well, no, before that I said that to say when
I was like, damn, you can do this in music.
This is like awesome, you know, like you get, let's
get you can have this if you can have this type,
I'm trying my best.

Speaker 1 (01:50:22):
My nigga is the version of this ship. So but no,
I'm talking about when he did.

Speaker 2 (01:50:31):
His party and he showed Luke live closer than person
and it wasn't on TV. Like I told you again,
the ship that you actually see has more of an
influence on you just some ship that.

Speaker 1 (01:50:42):
You might see on TV.

Speaker 2 (01:50:43):
So the concert was live and then motherfucker per it
looked different. Nigga talk about HD. It just looked different.
I was like, I'm gonna make some videos like this,
like this ship gonna be Yeah. But it eventually led
up to Tip Drill because it was like Uncle Luke
and them for fifty eight and.

Speaker 1 (01:51:03):
All that shit popped that Guccie and all that, and
it was running.

Speaker 2 (01:51:07):
I was just saying their influence on me even wanting
to do it at a certain point because I've always like, yo,
I want to make one of those type of videos.

Speaker 1 (01:51:15):
But at that time, Universal was like even the fuck up? Yeah,
you know, it just was what it was. And then
BT came out with which is crazy that they did that.

Speaker 5 (01:51:26):
That's the discripancy that people are having. Did you make
that for BET or was BT already created?

Speaker 2 (01:51:34):
No, We was doing the dirty versions the remix album. Okay, well,
we remixed a lot of the songs and that was
one of the songs. Tip Drill was the remix to
EI and we was like, yo, fuck it because BT
Universe wasn't gona shoot no videos. We hadn't planned on
shooting no videos for the remix, and I think we

(01:51:57):
might have shot tip Drill with our own fucking mud
need or some ship if I'm not I'm not mistaken.
But when we saw when I saw that BT young cut,
I was like, well, fuck it, let's do a video
for this.

Speaker 1 (01:52:10):
Since because we're.

Speaker 2 (01:52:11):
Going back and forth, they don't want to shoot no
video boom more, so let's do something like this.

Speaker 1 (01:52:14):
This won't be expensive, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:52:17):
Because video budgets back then niggas and niggas was heating.
You didn't even have to do nothing but just bring
niggas water.

Speaker 1 (01:52:22):
And you might leave with two thousand dollars a day.
So but that's how that came about. As far as
tips real, I wanted to do the remix to EI
and but Bennie Boom does that? Bennie? Can you google it?
Has was that Bennie Boom who shot that? Yeah, but

(01:52:44):
the swipe of the car was always credited to the
but it wasn't mine.

Speaker 2 (01:52:48):
It was a girl like because we ran out of
wands for a split second and then we had to
call up over the Magic City and they brought Yeah,
we was in atlant We was in Atlanta at what
was that?

Speaker 1 (01:53:02):
What was old boy name? Ray Buchanan, the nigga used
to play for the Falcons. His wife wanted us to
shoot it there. She's a lesson, she's a legend. I
ain't like. It wasn't his idea. His old lady was like,
oh yeah, you can use ours. I don't know who
had that connection, but I was just like, yo, what's

(01:53:24):
your wife's gonna say. She was like, she she's the
reason y'all shooting it? I said, no, ship, I love
this man, all right? So e I ya remix Tip

(01:53:45):
Drill that was the remix. Tip Drill was the remix
e I was the first one. Yeah, that was on
Country Grammar. What's the first record we came out with
Country Grammar? Country Grammar? Yeah, let's talk about that. The
them the single, as you said, it actually came out

(01:54:07):
in like ninety eight locally, Okay, locally.

Speaker 2 (01:54:12):
Then that's what kind of got us, you know, the
deal so to speak, because six one eight, who.

Speaker 1 (01:54:19):
Used to DJ at the club I was telling you
about that. Bob's family owned in Illinois and East St.
Louis the Beano.

Speaker 2 (01:54:28):
We used to take records over there and he would
break them after we did give me what you got.
So it was actually our early and then got us noticed.

Speaker 1 (01:54:39):
Then Universal, I re recuded it, I re recut it
with Universal Record recorded.

Speaker 2 (01:54:45):
It and we put it back out again. But Universal
never really liked Country Grammar. They just thought it was
a cool record regional, but they never really liked the record.

Speaker 1 (01:54:54):
They didn't want to go with it. First. I had
to fucking kicking screen.

Speaker 5 (01:54:57):
About the same Universal that it signed to Little Way
Break Okay continue.

Speaker 1 (01:55:03):
So even with that, if it wasn't for cash money,
we might not even got signed a Universal. Because even
when I was coming up to the Penalty Nigga, my
four demo records was Country Grammar, E, I Ride with
Me and batter Up all four singles off of Country Grammar,
those were my Those were my demo records. You know,

(01:55:25):
you're sitting in somebody's office playing those are the records.

Speaker 2 (01:55:28):
You played the whole records off of the album, and
then I did. Then now about twelve bout.

Speaker 1 (01:55:34):
Twelve labels, was like god, you know I was trying
to sign the Penalty.

Speaker 2 (01:55:45):
No, but I thought I was gonna get signed the Penalty.
I always touched it, but it never you know, it
never happened like that. So then we kind of it
was just shopping the ship. Like Leo Leoi said, I
don't know what to do with that. I you he
had just had scar face. You're not just mean the
Penalty records.

Speaker 1 (01:56:03):
You're we went through you know, New York got all
the all the record labels, and it's like through these
meanings or some Cooter love some you had a bunch
of people that was working in our favors, so to
speak like that. Like even.

Speaker 2 (01:56:19):
Trail, who played a large role, the only Trail played
a large role in us being signed and being successful
and even hooking up with Kudah. He actually is the
one that gave cool the tape Trail. I met Trail
in can Coon of ninety eight. Remember when everybody used
to go to cant Coon and ship then back in
the day for spring breaking over there. And I went

(01:56:40):
down there in ninety eight, but I went down there
to sell T shirts and shit, nigga, I was hustling.
They would just came back, I'm managing them and say, yo, nigga,
we just left can Coon. This was like ninety seven.
He was like, yeah, you gotta come, nigga. You know
I'm back all my mother hustling. I'm trying to see
what gonna come of it. I just went back then,
just into taking trips niggas just to have fun. Like

(01:57:02):
so you know, when you a block beatter, you a
block beata period, and to lead that block got to
make sense, like damn show not to be going to
no beach, nigga.

Speaker 1 (01:57:11):
I wasn't culture like now, I didn't leave a loop,
you know what I'm saying, Like I wasn't cultured. I
don't know, like just the way to have fun.

Speaker 2 (01:57:19):
I fun was playing some space, some dominos, some shit
eating and going to his U Terrorists club. But but
Treill I actually met Trail and now they said we
were staying in the same hotel. And like I said, again,
for it to make sense, I had to figure out something.
So I brought a whole bunch of T shirts down
in cant Coon because loving him, it just came back

(01:57:41):
and said, yeah, you gotta come, man, it's cracking.

Speaker 1 (01:57:43):
They got these clubs. They blow the mistic shit out
the ceiling. It's wild. And they had this what happens
in can Coon stays in cant Coon. And they got a.

Speaker 2 (01:57:50):
Sand for a Vegas store. That ship was down in CanCon.
That shit came out of can Coon. What happens in
CanCon stays in cant Coon.

Speaker 1 (01:57:58):
And that's why I met Triller. He was and in
the same hotel.

Speaker 2 (01:58:01):
And I had these T shirts and the nigga bought
like two T shirts like full price too.

Speaker 1 (01:58:06):
I ain't even have to you know, how to take fifteen,
so I started at thirty. That nigga bought two for
thirty two at thirty piece. I was like, nigga, I
throw them extra.

Speaker 7 (01:58:17):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:58:18):
He was cool as fuck.

Speaker 2 (01:58:19):
Come to find out, when we left that came back
to Saint Louis, this nigga was in my manager's basement.
Somehow he had met my manager's wife's sister. Woh, come down,
this nigga's in the basement.

Speaker 1 (01:58:33):
I'm like yo.

Speaker 4 (01:58:34):
He's like yo.

Speaker 1 (01:58:35):
He was like yo, I heard you got a rap group.

Speaker 2 (01:58:38):
Do your manager? And Treil knew damn near everybody. So
Treil had our demo CD two. He passed it, I
think to the rough riders. He passed into a lot
of people. So it's documented. It's a few people that
was like, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:58:53):
What's the name? Had it? Dang? Yep, dang had it?
Because Dame actually said something, he said, yeah. They asked him,
it's one thing you great said, yeah, I should have
signed Nelly, he said, he said, after looking at it,
I I should.

Speaker 2 (01:59:11):
Have signed he said, But it was it came from Trail.
And if you know Trail, you know Trail always he's
a good dude, but he always coming to you with something.
He's you know, he's both. So you don't know, and
it just it just happened that at that time, Trail
was passing out them Country Grammar CDs and Dame was
a little hesitant on that ship.

Speaker 1 (01:59:31):
There's a lot of people that passed up ship. JD.
My brother, he passed JD. Motherfucker was on backwards. No,
you stuck on nah at that time. Wait, he had
the Braids ship. This is that that?

Speaker 8 (01:59:49):
But you said passing out Country Grammar CD. So the
demo was the album already.

Speaker 1 (01:59:53):
My four songs, Yeah, my four songs was Country Grammar E.
I Ride with Me in batter up.

Speaker 2 (01:59:59):
Wow, all the false things off of there, that's crazy.
We put some other ship around it.

Speaker 8 (02:00:04):
So nobody can say a label made those records with you,
like A and R didn't do those records, you got it?

Speaker 2 (02:00:10):
Fuck yeah, hell yeah, that shit wouldn't have sounded like that.
Like once, you could tell when the motherfuckering label start
getting into an artist project, you know, if you know enough,
you can tell.

Speaker 1 (02:00:22):
Because and you still got to be versatile. Versatility is
the key.

Speaker 2 (02:00:28):
That's why I give Jay all his credit because when
you can stay around doctor Dre, doctor.

Speaker 1 (02:00:32):
Dre ain't having it if you doctor Dre ain't coming
out unless he got him a young hot nigga. Ever,
if you take his history, he had easy, he had snoop.
Yeah you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (02:00:46):
Yeah, you know, and every time he do that, he
makes us and he makes a historic project almost to
a certain degree, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (02:00:55):
So he knows that hip hoppas.

Speaker 2 (02:00:57):
For the youth, by the youth, you know, so they
will always have the large majority of controlling it. The
problem is now hip hop didne got old, and just
like when anything gets old, their opinions get stronger, you
know what I mean, Because when we was young, we
had no opinions.

Speaker 1 (02:01:17):
You ain't give a fuck about nothing at twenty five.
I don't know, you got no opinion about this shit,
Like I'm just.

Speaker 2 (02:01:22):
Saying like older people got opinions. Well, I don't think
that's right. That's why they talk like that.

Speaker 1 (02:01:28):
You don't say that shit. Yah, that's right because you
didn't been through enough ship to where you're you're judging
that from something when you're young. I don't know why
the nigga's tripping fuck them. I don't care. So you
know that's why you gotta make let the kids. Let

(02:01:48):
the kids do the do what they do.

Speaker 2 (02:01:50):
I just hate all these old niggas shitting on the babies.

Speaker 1 (02:01:54):
I mean, like, man, why is y'all shitting on them? Man? Motherfuckers.

Speaker 2 (02:01:58):
You say, go Legend all that ship? Now, they weren't
saying that ship when Country grandmar draw.

Speaker 1 (02:02:05):
So I know what they feel like when you when
you the people that's saying you're fucking up music because
they said that to me, Oh he's fucking up in
hip hop boo. It's just what the fuck. And you
know what I'm saying, like, and when you're that person,

(02:02:26):
it don't feel like Legend go inspirational. You don't.

Speaker 2 (02:02:32):
You don't feel like that. You don't feel like that
at all. You feel like, why y'all fucking with me?
So change the station.

Speaker 1 (02:02:39):
Nigga turned it off like you ain't against them, you exactly.
But that's how we sound to some of these babies,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (02:02:48):
So I'm just inquiring, try to understand a little more
from the older hip hop generation, Try to understand what
it was like then. When couldn't nobody tell us ship?
I had a person told me, Yo, don't put that
song out. You're talking about a drive by. I said, Nigga,
this ship hard. They said, Yo, you're mixing a nursery

(02:03:11):
rhyme with a drive by. You're gonna have little kids
singing about a drive At that time.

Speaker 1 (02:03:18):
I gave not to fun.

Speaker 2 (02:03:21):
Fuck this old nigga. He trying to tell he's trying
to fuck up my ship. I he hat that's the
only thing that's going through my mind.

Speaker 1 (02:03:30):
He was right.

Speaker 2 (02:03:32):
I still didn't give a fuck. You know what I'm saying,
because I was I was young and tuking.

Speaker 1 (02:03:37):
What what? What?

Speaker 4 (02:03:39):
What?

Speaker 1 (02:03:40):
What? Oh? No, Yeah, that's how you was feeling. You
couldn't not tell you ship? Oh No, I love this ship, man,
I love it, But let's let's talk about girls for
a war weed the game.

Speaker 2 (02:04:03):
Yeah, grills actually came. We were doing putting more records
onto Sweatsuit. We were combining Sweatsuit one from Sweat one
from Soup, combinding the album, throwing some more songs on it.
You know how they get to doing that ship wish,
I just knowing what I knew now, definitely should have

(02:04:24):
been making motherfuckers pay for more when the labels would
make us do that type of shit and we weren't
up on it. But when you look at those extra
songs that now digital, no like when you emerge an album,
when you merge two albums, because in order to qualify
for a album, it just has to be like nine songs.

Speaker 1 (02:04:44):
But you're given well, could be could be changing changing it,
you could be right, but it's somewhere along that lines, right.

Speaker 2 (02:04:54):
So, but what I'm saying is when you look at
we was putting fifteen, sixteen, twenty songs, and if you
look at now what I'm saying now with the fins
in the in the in the streaming ship that you
could give to the oh my god, motherfuckers.

Speaker 1 (02:05:10):
Yeah, we gave ship a lot of ship away. We
gave a lot of ship away. We fu up, but
wheels came about and we was putting some more ship
over there. And I went down to Atlanta.

Speaker 2 (02:05:21):
And this when I understood JD's philosophy on how he
was making hits. I didn't understand this ship. So I
went down and got down there. Probably like Tuesday, we
went out and JD went out Tuesday, we ain't do nothing.
We went out Wednesday in Atlanta, you know, usually every
day somewhere, and we was going out every night. And

(02:05:44):
I'm like, you know, we're in the studio, we're doing
some ship. We fucking around, but I ain't getting what
I need and JD was like, fuck it, could we
be in there?

Speaker 1 (02:05:53):
It's like, yo, let's go out. I said, damn, all right,
cool where we're going? He said, We're gonna go to
Magic City? Fine? You know you excuse Like okay, I
thought he was going to go to another ain't cool.

Speaker 2 (02:06:04):
So we go to Magic City boat and I'm in
there and I forgot which song come on, but it
was something to the beat that that gave me.

Speaker 1 (02:06:15):
The melody for the grills and the concept.

Speaker 2 (02:06:17):
And I'm just in there and I was saying something
and I was over in one area and JD was
up in another, so I boom.

Speaker 1 (02:06:26):
Chop came over us like yo, nigga, I got it
burnt out. We left us.

Speaker 2 (02:06:31):
We left Magic City, went straight to the studio and
he started playing that that.

Speaker 7 (02:06:38):
That infamous do done thn on done on done thun
done done. And I was like, you know, you know,
you know, you know when you're hear something in your face, Yeah,
go ahead.

Speaker 1 (02:06:54):
So he was like, h now, here's the key.

Speaker 2 (02:07:00):
That only came because that was the vibe we just left.
That was the vibe that literally just left. I was
doing the same shit, you know what I'm saying. I
had told him what I was on and is there
in the middle of the club, and he went right
back to that motherfucker and kept that vibe.

Speaker 1 (02:07:19):
And was like, and I was able to, you know
what I mean, come up with the hook and everything,
and I did. I actually did two verses. It's a
verse on grills that never been heard.

Speaker 2 (02:07:35):
I did it, but I took it off because I
wanted the features on there.

Speaker 1 (02:07:40):
So we put Paul wall On there.

Speaker 2 (02:07:42):
We had to get Paul wall On there because at
that time him and TV Johnny was killing the game.

Speaker 1 (02:07:47):
With that.

Speaker 2 (02:07:48):
Yeah, So I called Paul, I said, listen, do you
don't worry about it? You know, sometimes the motherfuckers when
you do different styles and shit, you kind of like
want to say, Yo, how you heard me on the record?
Because I do that because the motherfucker say, yo, I
want Nelly on the record.

Speaker 1 (02:08:05):
I don't know which Nelly you talking about because I
go in there and do one Nelly, you might be
looking for another Nelly.

Speaker 2 (02:08:10):
So I'm like, yo, which Nelly? Like how you just
give me a reference of a sound or a melody
of how you how you heard Nell?

Speaker 1 (02:08:18):
Right? But with JD I didn't have to do that
with both verses.

Speaker 2 (02:08:22):
So then when Paul Wall came in, I said, jadd
I said, Paul, I said, you can do whatever you want,
but you.

Speaker 1 (02:08:28):
Got to say what it do? Baby? Is the ice scam?
Paul Wall, I say, you say whatever the else you
want to say. After that, I said, that's all I need.
That's all I need over the line, That's all I need,
and I'm out of here, like I already know what
that shit is supposed to sound like, you know what
I mean. I might not be able to play it,
but I know what the fuck is supposed to sound

(02:08:49):
like and I know why he's the right person for that.

Speaker 2 (02:08:53):
So we got Paul on there, and actually Murphy Lee
album was coming out, but we had Kim Folk album out,
and it was originally posed to it was originally going
to be Murphy Lee on the record, but it got
switched to give up an Ali because they had their

(02:09:16):
project out.

Speaker 1 (02:09:19):
Kim Folk.

Speaker 2 (02:09:22):
And Murph didn't get on that record, but it was
going to be Murphy first because Murphy was somebody who
was trying to get the pressure fold.

Speaker 1 (02:09:32):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (02:09:33):
But JD, I thought we was going out every night.
JD said, no, Nigga, I'm working. He said, y'all partying.
He said, I'm standing up on the couch. I'm listening
to tempos. I'm watching what motherfuckers got on. I'm watching the.

Speaker 1 (02:09:48):
Club talking about every trip club. I'm thinking every night
we going out. He's studying, he's working.

Speaker 2 (02:09:56):
That's why when I came to him with that hot
a about the about how I felt and what I want,
he was able to duplicate that same feeling as soon
as we got back to the studio because you know
what I'm saying, because he was already on that, and
I was like, damn, nigga.

Speaker 1 (02:10:13):
I've been kicking it all week. You've been here working.
I thought, he's it's a genius. Yeah he is. Yeah,
I'm just I'm being honest with you.

Speaker 4 (02:10:28):
Bro.

Speaker 1 (02:10:29):
We love you. You ain't you ain't drinking by the way. Yeah,
I'm being honest. Man.

Speaker 5 (02:10:42):
It's beautiful having your head with us because a lot
of people don't know how hip hop you are.

Speaker 1 (02:10:49):
People just look at your accolades and where you went to.
People don't understand the struggle. I've actually seen that. I
have been a part of that. But foot all that

(02:11:11):
you you scave through this whole ship and you won.
What's the meaning the game? Yes? Yeah, but it's all
it's a it's a fight. The first. Let me just
tell you something. It's a fight. It's so hard to
break through the barriers that you broke through. That's what
I'm asking. I appreciate it. Yah, Well listen again, half full.

Speaker 2 (02:11:38):
So I'm always grateful being able to do what, not
just me myself, but even my little brothers. Like he
produced four five tracks on Country Grammar. He rapped on
Country Grammar. We named the Saint Lunatic album after him,
Free City.

Speaker 1 (02:11:56):
So I say hardware.

Speaker 2 (02:12:00):
I don't ever want to say that it's hard work
because I know somebody that went through hard and ship,
you know what I mean, So not to be at
a place of being thankful. It's cool, But when you
watch other artists think that they are struggling, when it's like, yo, Nigga,

(02:12:21):
I was just thrown in the deep end and was
told to swim, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (02:12:25):
Like I didn't.

Speaker 2 (02:12:26):
Ain't nobody break Nelly. That's what you gotta understand. Ain't
nobody break Nelly. My area wasn't hot, You didn't.

Speaker 1 (02:12:34):
Break your upstream? Tell me in your area, who ain't.

Speaker 2 (02:12:39):
Been our Kanye got a chain from Rockefeller, fifty gots
stamped by doctor Dre.

Speaker 1 (02:12:45):
And them and them. Nellie got thrown into the fool.
You know what I'm saying, Like, if you look at.

Speaker 2 (02:12:56):
A lot of this ship that, even even if it's
around my time or whatever, not discrediting anything, because this
is all the dope ass artists that inspired me in
one way or nothing. Richard Trying is one of my
favorite albums of all time. Motherfucking ye. You know how
I feel about the Ye?

Speaker 4 (02:13:16):
I know.

Speaker 1 (02:13:18):
I gotta make sure I say that they that I
know this new nigga's tough.

Speaker 2 (02:13:25):
Different, He's different, He's definitely different. But everything else niggas,
even my brother Jah. He got to be on a
song with Hove before he came out. You know, Ship
Drake had Wayne. So you said you had no body,
I had no I had nobody but my city and

(02:13:46):
the niggas.

Speaker 1 (02:13:47):
That I came to the club with. That's all we had.
That's all we had.

Speaker 8 (02:13:52):
Hold without being said though, because you guys have been
skitting around the whole when you went to Harlem and
all this, y'all, y'all talking insider talk. People watching, they
don't know, how did you get to Harlem? How does
the connection with Harlem world happen? Carden?

Speaker 1 (02:14:08):
That all came through trail again, that all came through trail.

Speaker 2 (02:14:12):
Like I said again, when I met Treill down in
Cancun and he was motherfucking hanging. He was actually down
there with Mace and everybody, I think a whole Bible
or whatever the case he was down there with. And
once he came back to Saint Louis because he had
ran into our manager's wife sister, they wind up being

(02:14:33):
together so he got the album and he was like, Yo,
this ship is dope.

Speaker 1 (02:14:37):
I'm gonna I'm gonna try to help.

Speaker 2 (02:14:38):
And he brought that ship back up to New York
and he was trying to pass that around to the
connects that he knew. That's how we got off the
topic because we started talking about who he passed it to,
and I was like, Dame Dame had it.

Speaker 1 (02:14:49):
I know he got it to.

Speaker 2 (02:14:51):
I think it was d from Rough Riders and a
few other people for Upper in New York. But the
ship never spawned it off. But he said, Yo, I'm
going down to Atlanta. Jermaine Duprie is having a birthday party,
and I know Mace is going to the party.

Speaker 1 (02:15:11):
I'm gonna try to get the tape to Mace. So
we was like, fucking cool. Is your tape? Trail had it?
So we was like fucking cool.

Speaker 2 (02:15:19):
So we drove down to Atlanta and at that time,
Mini Van staying like kind of right outside. Jady got
this party at the motherfucking where was at the art museum.
He had a party at one of the art museums
down that motherfucker. This is the time all Limos niggas
rolled in Limos and you.

Speaker 1 (02:15:37):
Like Limos, I like Glimborough.

Speaker 2 (02:15:42):
But they had like motherfucking aisles and blocks of fucking
Limos just parked outside this and we was parked down
the street a little bit in the minivan. They probably
thought we were they're the rob niggas, probably because that's
how shady we was looking, Nigga compared to what was
going into the party.

Speaker 1 (02:15:57):
Everybody was dressed up little.

Speaker 2 (02:15:59):
So we outside party trail took our manager t Love,
and we're standing outside, were waiting slow down. Nigga with
the mask. He run up, He run up to he
run up to the door, just on some fuck it
and talking to the boy. He said, Yo, could you
tell our manager that you know that we out here.

(02:16:20):
We just look at the boot and dude said, okay,
what's your manager's name?

Speaker 1 (02:16:24):
Who is you? He was like, yo, we sa loa
text Tony Davis. The nigga goes down the list said
oh y'all on here? Oh he said what he said, Yeah,

(02:17:04):
So we go in there now, mind you, nigga, I'm
I'm literally still representing where I live in Saint Louis.
I'll just say that, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (02:17:16):
So my attire, it's reputable of the cars upon which
my street.

Speaker 1 (02:17:26):
You're like, you know what, So everything I got over.

when you go up these steps to the to the
VIP area, you got this party right here so everybody

Speaker 1 (02:18:04):
Everybody so we walking up these motherfuckers and you could
tell everybody like, who the fuck is niggas? Why is
they in the party? Look at what we got out?

Speaker 2 (02:18:13):
We were like, so we following Trail and Love and
they take us over to the section where Mace was
at and Trail was like, yo, these the group out
from Saint Louis.

Speaker 1 (02:18:23):
I was talking about you know what I'm saying this,
and Mace said.

Speaker 6 (02:18:27):
Give the tape to Cool, Give the tape to Cool Somal, So.

Speaker 1 (02:18:38):
Yeah, there he is. Because you know Mace would have added,
you know, he would have added he never heard it,
he never listened to it.

Speaker 2 (02:18:46):
Could have got the tape Cool, he said, good, it
could be you know what I'm saying. Trail was like, yo, son, well,
well you know he bigged us up. And as soon
as got as soon as Cooda got today, come on,

(02:19:07):
hold on, let's just try South people.

Speaker 1 (02:19:15):
No, he said, get to take the kudo. I don't
even know what the I was a fuck with, you said, everybody, give.

Speaker 2 (02:19:27):
So Gay to take the cool. The Coola left the party,
jumped in whatever he was in and played it. The
nigga called us about about an hour and were like, yo,
I'm fucking with it.

Speaker 1 (02:19:37):
Can y'all get up to New York and I got
a studio, come up, hang out, let's let's just knock
out some records to see what comes from it. So
we was like, yeah, cool, made our way up to
New York. He had a studio. I think it was
in Jersey. Was that ship in Jersey? He had a
studio in Jersey? Nigga, We thought we was in New Yeah.

(02:20:01):
You couldn't have told us nothing said well, yes and no,
I'm not gonna say that I'm out of that. That's
y'all politic. It doesn't know, but I'm saying it shows
like it because we didn't know the difference. You know,
when niggas ain't never really left where they left, bro,
you just know it.

Speaker 2 (02:20:18):
So we did the studio. We stayed for about two days.
We stayed actually stayed in the studio. Nigga slept on
the floor. We just recorded some records for him as
at that time as the group, and he took them ships.

Speaker 1 (02:20:30):
He was shopping them. He probably shopped him for a
couple of months, maybe a couple of months, and then
he was like, yo, I don't know about the group,
but I think if Nelly, I said, I think I
can get Nelly a deal. That's what, Because you guys
are presented as a group.

Speaker 2 (02:20:45):
First, always, always, I wasn't doing solo records at all,
but at that time, y'all was shopping as a group
as a group lunatics, and he tried to shop it
as a group, but he was like, yo, I don't
know if I can get the group of deal, he said,
but I think I can.

Speaker 1 (02:21:02):
Get Nelly a deal. Then he can put the group on.
Who is this guy Kudo cuts? Not no my duty?

Speaker 2 (02:21:09):
When Mace was like, I think he was managing Kuda
and he got that famous line in the record. Okay, cool,
So we like, we think cool to the man. Any
nigga get a shout out in the record, especially a
hit record.

Speaker 1 (02:21:21):
Yes, So we followed up with him on some other
ship and he was like, yo, I think I can
get Nelly a deal. But no, no, he was I
was in the group.

Speaker 2 (02:21:33):
I was in the group, all right. But so when
I'm this team player, okay, I played sports again, I
played sports my whole life.

Speaker 1 (02:21:40):
I'm a team player. I was brought up like that.

Speaker 2 (02:21:41):
I'm very coachable. So if I got a bad first.
I'm a bad first. If I got a bad ninth,
I have bad ninth.

Speaker 14 (02:21:47):
Whatever it takes to win, whatever good, whatever it takes
to win.

Speaker 2 (02:21:52):
So I was never a solo watist because I would
we would do records. I come in and do my
verse and i'm i'm I'm I'm back beating the block,

Speaker 1 (02:22:02):
And then I start working at like ups because I.

Speaker 2 (02:22:06):
Needed some insurance because I just had my daughter. But
that's more so that's how but it saved me.

Speaker 1 (02:22:15):
No, this is what it feels like.

Speaker 8 (02:22:17):
It feels like that's the typical industry. How you separate right, No,
by that conquered type of vibe.

Speaker 1 (02:22:25):
You know what I'm saying. You think like that after
there's something to divide and conquer. Ford when you're in
the beginning, there's no way you're thinking like that because
as long as you remain loyal, as long as you
do what you're supposed to do, then how can they
divide and conquer? Now, they did try to put me
out and I was like no. They was like, yo,

(02:22:45):
you you get on, you can.

Speaker 2 (02:22:46):
Put the group on whatever, hold on, hold on, And
I was like, okay, sound good.

Speaker 1 (02:22:51):
But I need it in the paper you had it
in the paperwork, and the paperwork it said, if I
sold this.

Speaker 2 (02:22:56):
Amount of records latics as automatically, get the deal automatically.

Speaker 1 (02:23:02):
And I think it was only like either three fifty
or two fifty. It said, what's the thing you did,
nigga the first day that the first day that album
came out, they brought me a gold. It brought me
a day. And the group did have a deal.

Speaker 2 (02:23:14):
Yeah, yeah, everybody a group of deal and everybody had
solo deal.

Speaker 10 (02:23:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:23:18):
They were like a Woo Tang clan in a sense,
and much respect to because they had a good influence
on so xplaining that to us. So once you went platinum,
right yep, then you had a deal for all your
It wasn't even about going platinum. We just had to sell.
He didn't have to go as a total. As a total.

Speaker 2 (02:23:40):
All I had to sell was I think three fifty love,
but I even three fifty, Well, three fifty is.

Speaker 1 (02:23:46):
Going to be going if you if you think about it,
like depending on when it happens, like if you up
to three fifty at that time, and like two or
three months, nigga, you you go easy. You already go
because they didn't already read up and you and read ship.
But if I mean, you know, if you had three
fifty in fucking two years, then yeah, I guess there's

(02:24:07):
no reason to get a group of deal.

Speaker 4 (02:24:08):
You know.

Speaker 1 (02:24:09):
So you baked into your deal, made sure it was
in the right the group, make sure it was in
the right homeans you was doing the Wotang deal. But well,
I don't know what the Woutang deal was. Making sure
that everybody was in well, yeah, well, making sure that
the label sticks to given them an opportunity eating. Yeah,

(02:24:33):
you you got to cooking. If you cook, you right, right.

Speaker 2 (02:24:39):
If you don't cook, you ain't gonna eat another You're
gonna be relying on the no motherfucker to feed you.

Speaker 1 (02:24:44):
But if you can cook, you can eat.

Speaker 2 (02:24:46):
So everybody had an opportunity to go out there and cook.
The group cook, so and our whole ship probably would
have been different if he would have been out, because
you know, at that time, whatever song you was on,
if you had a feature, that was the next motherfucker
to come out.

Speaker 1 (02:25:03):
He was actually on ride with me.

Speaker 2 (02:25:05):
But because he wasn't out when rival Me came up,
because rival Me would have been a launch for him.

Speaker 1 (02:25:10):
You see what I'm saying. He would have been that
nigga don't drink like that. No, I just yeah, Now,
what was that on me?

Speaker 2 (02:25:28):
I thought I was fucking up ship. I'm like, no,
don't charge. If he would have been out our course,
uh could have been, would.

Speaker 1 (02:25:36):
Have been different.

Speaker 2 (02:25:37):
It wouldn't have been the way. It wouldn't have been
the way that. It wouldn't have been the way that
it turned out. Why that nigga get the comfortable chair.
I'm older than him. That ship got owns.

Speaker 1 (02:25:53):
You got hydraulics on that ship. No, you played me.
That chair was an option.

Speaker 4 (02:26:06):
We love.

Speaker 1 (02:26:07):
I got a line up the chairs. When you get
niggas need options this year, nigga ain't no, sir, Paul, listen, man,
I didn't know that. Yeah, you know you gentlemen, ain't slip.
I got the same ship he got, man, No, that's good.

(02:26:31):
Tell your niggas. Tell these niggas man, Man, just city,
many city, spud whatever you city. He would have been
after the rival on the rat he was.

Speaker 2 (02:26:43):
He did the rat so he was on the demo
originally he was on the record. Yeah, he was on
the demo. No, you wasn't on the demo. No, he
wasn't on the demo. I put put him on there
once we did the album. Once we did because we
re recorded everything.

Speaker 1 (02:26:59):
And then Highs for You wasn't in you. You in
jail and this record is fucking number one. How does
that nigga he made money in jail? They charged him
to be in jail. Wait a minute, yeah you got jail.
What isn't this nigga to be in there because you
were making too much money? Oh yeah, yeah that's her.

(02:27:20):
Wait what yeah? Ten seven hundred and fourteen dollars and
thirty eight cents a year. Damn well yeah, it was
like so.

Speaker 3 (02:27:32):
When if you're if you're worth more than what the
government gives them per year?

Speaker 1 (02:27:39):
What yeah they charge you for Yeah yeah, that nigga
pan for it to not go nowhere my shoes, my
T shirts. This nigga out here with bad days, yo, yo,
don't start that ship. Just started trusting this nagger for

(02:28:03):
a long time.

Speaker 2 (02:28:04):
He looked over her shoulders, like no, but when this
nigga first came home, he had to be comfortable.

Speaker 1 (02:28:11):
What he didn't like it was quick like people. I mean,
I guess it's move movements. When your movements, I don't know,
niggas explain it's natural.

Speaker 2 (02:28:25):
You know, niggas doing no, but it's really natural when
you done did nine years.

Speaker 1 (02:28:29):
That's what I'm saying. You know, niggas movements matter. That
shows you not to like people. We on the bus
move we on the bus moving to to loose. Whoa
you just he was walking down calling each other boots
and I'm like, what, like, man, bitch, I'm like, oh,

(02:28:52):
niggas trying to die? Caught me a bitch? Y'all call
it the other bitches? Yeah, that's.

Speaker 5 (02:29:05):
So, what's the next thing? Because I'm gonna be honest
with you. I was in Hawaii and when What's Sexy Red.

Speaker 1 (02:29:18):
That came on? He was in he was in the club,
I was in a pool like that. She want to
shoot everybody. I used to want shoot everybody. Yeah, is
that what rappers going through the day. I think that's
what she's going through. See just the thing and it's

(02:29:40):
no just.

Speaker 2 (02:29:42):
There's no disrespect to any of our great female artists period.
Because I'm a fan. Again, I don't judge. I don't
judge you see what I'm saying. But if you want
to talk like facts like men have taken so much
and as is warranted mm hm, as it's justified. Men

(02:30:08):
have taken for speaking the way that we do about
our women in music.

Speaker 1 (02:30:15):
Right.

Speaker 2 (02:30:16):
So, but when you look at a span of when
women have literally controlled the music, controlled the music.

Speaker 1 (02:30:28):
The biggest songs are definitely definitely songs of like sex,
very much, very much sex. You see what I'm saying.
Like and again they can they can do that. It's
not it's not an issue.

Speaker 2 (02:30:47):
But if you look at their stories, they're doing it
more so because of the business.

Speaker 1 (02:30:53):
When you when you think because.

Speaker 2 (02:30:56):
They're rapping, but they're married and so in other words,
you know, whole music, whole music was cool into a
real hot showed.

Speaker 8 (02:31:05):
Up minus the Lauren Hills, minus the Queen Latifa's.

Speaker 1 (02:31:09):
Real music was cool until a real one showed up.
I don't think you going to no, I'm just saying,
like a real a real some real ship. Yeah, and
then a real one showed up and now everybody like, WHOA,

(02:31:30):
well where you think it was going. Don't shop on
our little sister now because she telling her truth, y'all.
Y'all opened the door for her to tell her truth.
So don't ship on ours, you know what I mean, Like, nah,
I don't shop on ours. It was cool to a
real one showed up where they say King Vaughan gangster
real music was cool to a real one showed up up.

(02:31:55):
So you know, gangster music is cool until a real
one show up. That's just facts and Searley came with that,
that real on ans and either you could say what
you want to say about it, but it's it's there,
and it's possible because of something that came before it.

(02:32:20):
Right If you mad at anything.

Speaker 2 (02:32:22):
That's before, you are in your face right now, don't
get mad at what's in your face right now, get
mad at.

Speaker 1 (02:32:27):
How it got there. Okay, so let's say this right
now because that's what we advocate as a community because
they you know, shuld'll be like.

Speaker 2 (02:32:37):
Yo, you know, you get mad on our brothers because
they gotta do this, they do that. But we say, yo,
track the history and then now you know how we
got here, so that that has to be a factor
in anything you don't like. If it's anything you do
not like, don't question the why you don't like it
in your face, question how what you got what you

(02:32:59):
don't like is there, But but.

Speaker 8 (02:33:01):
Now we have an opportunity to shed line on other things.

But you come to find out that you can't funk
with everybody in that society. We can, you know what
I'm saying as far as the hip hop, but I
think the the common around that you can find with
anybody can be a foundation for any type of relationship,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (02:41:05):
So regardless regardless of what it is.

Speaker 2 (02:41:09):

that that means that much to you that you're able
to be like, Okay, you respect that, Okay, I respect that.

As far as you won't go that far. I won't
go there far, you know, but you.

I saw was termination m hm and who to love?

Speaker 2 (02:41:49):
He saw the vision, he saw the vision he had
to because I didn't not like that. I mean, I
was just in the group. I was in the group,
and I'm going back and forth.

Speaker 1 (02:42:01):
Me and City because like I said again, he was
producing a lot of music back then as well as rappers.
So I would go sometimes sometimes I would take him
because we stayed in t neck. We stayed in when
I used to come up to the future record, he
came up to generally a couple of times, not showing
up to that video being locked up?

Speaker 3 (02:42:24):
How did that make you feel? I mean, by what
the video the ride with Me video? I mean, by
that time, I had missed so many videos. He was
used to that, but I didn't even think about it.
But this is the one that you featured on though. Yeah,
but I'm focused on what's going on there make the more, you.

Speaker 1 (02:42:44):
Know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (02:42:45):
I would Yeah, by that time, when it was just
like okay, I didn't made the decision where.

Speaker 1 (02:42:51):
I have to mentally prepare yourself, and you gotta do that.

Speaker 8 (02:42:55):
You deal with what you're dealing with, right Yeah, school,
that's dope, that's the outside step.

Speaker 2 (02:43:02):
But I gotta be I have to be where I am.
I couldn't believe they were charging that man to be
in there though.

Speaker 1 (02:43:08):
That's the craziest I ever heard of my life. Right now,
they charges to be in jail.

Speaker 2 (02:43:15):
Like because he's making money, he getting getting published, he
gets like like he got he gets publishing off country
grammar and like the contrary to rumor like.

Speaker 1 (02:43:27):
Or whatever, he's getting charged. Can't hear that? Mary wanting
this right now? So when when all it makes the
government they get a certain is that just the state
of Is that just a statement? Everywhere is everywhere is
a federal penitentiary.

Speaker 3 (02:43:45):
Federal gives the state a certain dollar amount per inmate persons.
How they get mattresses, they pay for the pillars, to socks,
the t shirts, underworld, that everything. So if you're worth
more or as much as what you can get per
year for each inmate, then they make you pay it yourself.

Speaker 1 (02:44:07):
What else?

Speaker 2 (02:44:09):
But I thought that was you Missouri law. I ain't
know that they're doing that. Ship So niggas in jail
right now in New York playing that.

Speaker 1 (02:44:15):
That's what I'm saying that. No, but everybody ain't in
st lunatics. Everybody ain't. No, I know, but it's some niggas.
It's I mean, without saying some names right now.

Speaker 8 (02:44:26):

you paid to be in prison.

Speaker 1 (02:44:33):
That's you just they don't know what they're paying that
nigga who's paying. No, Yeah, but then you got to

He will never be anywhere near anything I'm doing.

Speaker 2 (02:45:31):
Don't wait till I get drunk to start doing that subject.
But nah, you should have said that. We should have
talked about this earlier when I could have composed myself
right then, I'm gonna tell.

Speaker 1 (02:45:45):
No, it's all good. I'm just because you know why
it's me. No, I don't hold that ship.

Speaker 5 (02:45:50):
Let me just say something. Yeah, outside of looking at
that's the inside of looking out. Actually witnessed this Lunatics
as a happy conquired with the group.

Speaker 1 (02:46:06):
Yo, I saw it me.

Speaker 5 (02:46:12):
I'm not saying I'm I'm the best person to have
a vision. What I'm saying is I saw it.

Speaker 1 (02:46:19):
And I loved it.

Speaker 5 (02:46:22):
I actually loved you know. I tell you, I tell
you a story. I can only tell me one time.
I can on you know, put it in your mouth,
So I can only tell me one time. It's like, Yo,
you know what, Yeah, I think I had did it Atlanta,
and then I did uh Milwaukee, and y'all did Atlanta

(02:46:45):
in Milwaukee right behind me, which fast right, and then
and you know, I can only told me say, you know,
you are ruling with the same amount of people of earlier,
the same lunatics, but it's only you and the r
m hmm. So he basically mc hammer.

Speaker 1 (02:47:12):
He basically said, they said, but I got none of
them is ten million, and I had the same amount
of people that ever I was feeling with me. But
that's where we're from again.

Speaker 2 (02:47:25):
And then go back to when you're young and you're thugging,
you know, listening, you know what I'm saying. And it
goes to what I was saying about the older people
having a lot more patience with the young ones, because
you got to know what we didn't do. Like we
always like to say we had og we listened to. Yeah,
we didn't, and we didn't listen to And you.

Speaker 1 (02:47:48):
Know what I'm saying, it's just not like that. But
but but let's just get with you.

Speaker 2 (02:47:53):
But with you having a lot of them people out,
you probably had a lot of brothers that was from
your area, a lot of brothers you was.

Speaker 1 (02:47:59):
Trying to help.

Speaker 5 (02:48:00):
I want to save everyone. So I tell you, like, well,
I can only tell me that. I can only said, man,
you know so many people.

Speaker 2 (02:48:14):
I mean, look, I look to you because you hoping
a lot of the motherfuckers don't want going I want
to save it. Hold on, let me, well, not just
save everybody, but you hoping it's somebody in there that's
looking around, that's going to find a lane.

Speaker 1 (02:48:31):
It's not about you carving out a lane for everybody.

Speaker 2 (02:48:35):
What happens is that niggas think it's your job to
carve them out a lane. It's just to help them
see more than they would have saw on their own.
All you're supposed to do is help the motherfuckers see
more than what they would have.

Speaker 1 (02:48:50):
Saw on their own. It's up to that person. If
that person ain't got it, they ain't got it.

Speaker 2 (02:48:54):
So why should you stake your reputation on a motherfucker
who ain't gonna go out? Because a motherfucker that hard,
you ain't got to stake your reputation.

Speaker 1 (02:49:02):
On it, he gonna go. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (02:49:05):
It's like, nigga, if you know you gotta go dude,
ther you ain't gonna take a nigga who might shoot.

Speaker 1 (02:49:14):
You. Won't take a nigga who you know gonna get down.
But how hard is it? Because for me, are you
thinking they gonna go down? Come to find out, some
niggas just want you to call that shit out. You're like,
damn you look back, like nigga you you yeah.

Speaker 15 (02:49:30):
You know because for me as a leader, right, the
hardest job in the world, hardest job in the world,
really leaders, really hardest job in the world is to
lead on any level, just.

Speaker 1 (02:49:41):
Not that up it a little bit.

Speaker 5 (02:49:44):
Hardest job is to lead with good intentions, because if
you're leading with good intentions, you're gonna be contigued.

Speaker 2 (02:49:53):
Well, those are your blessings. You can lead with bad intentions, Okay,
but but you're you're the You're the one with the
most initiative. You're the one with the most drive.

Speaker 1 (02:50:06):
You see what I'm saying, Like, because you can have
bad intentions. They do it all the time. Coats.

Speaker 2 (02:50:11):
Motherfucker follow a coat off the side of a motherfucker mountain.
You shot what I'm saying, like, give you their money.
They motherfucker make you dress a certain way, haveing sex.

Speaker 1 (02:50:20):
With your wife and your daughters.

Speaker 2 (02:50:23):
Are Like a motherfucker can mentally fuck your head up
to where you truly are believing in this person and
you are allowing things that you know, on the other hand,
are truly immoral to what you should.

Speaker 1 (02:50:35):
Believe or how you do. But he got you so
fucked up you believe this is the right thing to do.
You can't tell me, you know what I mean? So
being a leader, it's still hard for that motherfucking coat leader.
That nigga still up at night, worried about how you're
gonna keep control, or.

Speaker 2 (02:50:52):
How he worried about an uprising. At any moment, he's
working that harder, you know, like the devil. The devil
worked harder. Thank god, he up all night. He worked
harder than guy. He gotta change your motherfucking mind a
little bit. Take it the picture, you know what I mean.

Speaker 8 (02:51:16):
You're a granddad. Get you, get you some water. You're
about to take a great picture right now. Great picture.
