1:48
Speaker 1: a Luke, because let me tell you something. I read
1:50
Speaker 1: the whole book. Okay, it was fascinating. I read it
1:52
Speaker 1: all in two days. And it really gives a whole
1:55
Speaker 1: history of Luke, what he was like when he was younger,
1:58
Speaker 1: his family background, talks about growing up in Miami, going
2:01
Speaker 1: to Liberty City, the politics of Miami, because you know,
2:04
Speaker 1: we go to Miami all the time, but we don't
2:07
Speaker 1: know the history of Miami. So this book really breaks
2:09
Speaker 1: it down. So it all started, would no I didn't well,
2:13
Speaker 1: you know, we all came the Uncle Luke business start. Well,
2:18
Speaker 1: I mean basically just like she said. I mean, in
2:20
Speaker 1: the book, I talk about, you know, the beginning of
2:22
Speaker 1: Miami because just like you said, a lot of people
2:24
Speaker 1: come down there, but they don't know the history. They
2:26
Speaker 1: don't know Miami was forty percent African Americans. They don't
2:29
Speaker 1: know Miami was built on the backs of of the Bahamians,
2:34
Speaker 1: you know, and what you see right now ain't what
2:37
Speaker 1: it was before. You know, we couldn't go to Miami Beach.
2:40
Speaker 1: We would have to be off the beach at six o'clock,
2:43
Speaker 1: you know, in this little area call over Town. You know,
2:45
Speaker 1: you would perform on the beach, but then you have
2:47
Speaker 1: to stay there. So I kind of bringing in full
2:50
Speaker 1: full full of you know how you know, I was
2:54
Speaker 1: taught by my uncle and by my dad, and you
2:58
Speaker 1: know what I became of after that, you know, as
3:01
Speaker 1: far as going through all the politics of things that
3:03
Speaker 1: had to go through going to the Supreme Court, you know,
3:06
Speaker 1: uh and just like everybody else, you know, I started
3:08
Speaker 1: out of you know, as a DJ. You know, I
3:10
Speaker 1: was interning at the radio station in Miami. And from that,
3:14
Speaker 1: you know, I learned the business that way, you know,
3:17
Speaker 1: brought down a little group, Two Live Crew, and before
3:19
Speaker 1: you know it, you know, had to change what they
3:21
Speaker 1: did because a lot of people that I talked about
3:23
Speaker 1: in the book, a lot of people don't know Two
3:24
Speaker 1: Live Crew probably was the first conscious rap group. You know,
3:27
Speaker 1: on one side of it, yeah, it was one side
3:32
Speaker 1: of his guy damned euriv Lot. And then the other
3:34
Speaker 1: side of it was Chris uh and and Uri wanted
3:38
Speaker 1: to do conscious music. And then he, you know, once
3:40
Speaker 1: I said, hey, look man, let's do this this booty
3:42
Speaker 1: shaking music with a little bit of dolo mighty in it,
3:45
Speaker 1: mister mix was uh put it together? He was like, Nah,
3:48
Speaker 1: I ain't with it. You know he was, you know,
3:51
Speaker 1: he's actually from Both of the guys are from Brooklyn.
3:54
Speaker 1: People don't really know that, you know, uh that, Yeah,
3:58
Speaker 1: these guys are from here. And that basically how the
4:00
Speaker 1: group started. And before you know it, you know, I
4:03
Speaker 1: started going to jail and became the first person, you know,
4:06
Speaker 1: hip hop artists to go to the Supreme Court. First
4:09
Speaker 1: you were pulling your record off the shelves and record
4:11
Speaker 1: stores and arresting owners of record shops for selling your record. Yeah,
4:15
Speaker 1: because a federal judge, Gonzalez he uh, you know, deemed
4:19
Speaker 1: my album I've seen and said the album was I've seen,
4:22
Speaker 1: and before you know it, you know, they started taking
4:24
Speaker 1: the records off the shelf and uh. And then at
4:27
Speaker 1: that point I was like, okay, well I don't feel
4:28
Speaker 1: like that's right. So I went around the corner, did
4:31
Speaker 1: a show at this club named for and Toura and
4:34
Speaker 1: actually got arrested, so you know, for the charge. The
4:37
Speaker 1: charge was performing that I've seen lyrics in the song.
4:41
Speaker 1: You do know, nowadays the stuff you used to wrap
4:44
Speaker 1: about then wouldn't even be offensive at all to nobody
4:46
Speaker 1: thanks to him going to the the Supreme Court. Yeah, and see,
4:49
Speaker 1: that's the whole thing in this book, you know, because
4:51
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, really, I mean, keep you
4:54
Speaker 1: one hundred. I feel like, you know, I'm the d
4:56
Speaker 1: danger feel of the music industry. You know, nobody never
5:00
Speaker 1: I told my story, no no respect at all. I mean,
5:02
Speaker 1: nobody never told a story that you know. I am
5:04
Speaker 1: the person who created a hipop in the South. There
5:06
Speaker 1: was no hippopta. Yes, I signed an mc shot D
5:11
Speaker 1: and I talked about it in the book as well,
5:13
Speaker 1: you know, and and all the different things. You know
5:15
Speaker 1: that sticker you see on that. I created that parental advisory,
5:19
Speaker 1: you know, because some people you know, called up and say, look,
5:22
Speaker 1: the kids are getting the dirty version of it. You
5:24
Speaker 1: know what you like, the Jesus of offensive material laid
5:28
Speaker 1: on the cross. I laid on the cross and got crucified,
5:31
Speaker 1: and nobody want to give me no credit. So I
5:34
Speaker 1: basically said, look, you know it's time to do this book.
5:36
Speaker 1: You know, I need to sect the record straight. I
5:38
Speaker 1: need to let people understand this Miami, that they're going
5:41
Speaker 1: to this beautiful place. You know, how they displaced African Americans,
5:45
Speaker 1: how they did people. You know, I need people to
5:47
Speaker 1: know the history of the South. I need people to
5:49
Speaker 1: know the history you know of Luke Records, Two Live Crew, Pitbull, Trick,
5:54
Speaker 1: Daddy Acetown, all those all those groups that you know
5:58
Speaker 1: we we created within that. Somebody was on a Luke record.
6:02
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, he did uh with lil Ze Man Liz
6:06
Speaker 1: the Lollipop So you knocking the boots? Yeah that was
6:12
Speaker 1: Carred Yeah yeah, yeah, No, I mean I got him
6:15
Speaker 1: fresh out of jail, but he couldn't sign to you, right, yeah,
6:17
Speaker 1: he wasn't signed to me. Well, no, I didn't sign
6:20
Speaker 1: him up because that at that time, I was going
6:22
Speaker 1: through the Chapter eleven bankruptcy, so I didn't want to
6:25
Speaker 1: make him property out of the state because he would
6:27
Speaker 1: have then signed to somebody else. You know, I would
6:30
Speaker 1: have probably lost him. So I kind of saved his career.
6:33
Speaker 1: I tell you, though, I think you're the only selling
6:35
Speaker 1: artists that got respect everywhere. I remember, not in New York.
6:38
Speaker 1: First came to sell out the total crazy when he
6:40
Speaker 1: came to the Tunnel, But that took a long time
6:43
Speaker 1: because before that, you talk about coming to New York
6:45
Speaker 1: and other artists like run DMC and Public Enemy not
6:48
Speaker 1: even wanting you guys to perform or open up for them. Yeah.
6:51
Speaker 1: I talked about that in the book. I mean, because
6:53
Speaker 1: it was like we were the guys, you know, you know,
6:56
Speaker 1: and I and I talked about, you know, when we
6:58
Speaker 1: would go to New Music and all, you know, and
7:01
Speaker 1: the guy Hank Shock, he was like, Yo, this music
7:03
Speaker 1: is not gonna do nothing. And then I hopped up
7:05
Speaker 1: and said, look, no, you know, this music, you know,
7:08
Speaker 1: the South is gonna be forced to reckon with, you know,
7:11
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, because you know, other
7:12
Speaker 1: Southern artists are gonna take our lead and do certain things.
7:15
Speaker 1: So you know, you know, I just try and give
7:18
Speaker 1: everybody a good history lesson, you know. And I think
7:21
Speaker 1: anybody in hirepop, especially any Southern artists, they need to
7:25
Speaker 1: read this book, you know. And even talking about beefs.
7:28
Speaker 1: You know, you you got beefs going on right now,
7:30
Speaker 1: which is rady G. They need to learn about how
7:33
Speaker 1: real beef went on. You know, when we had to
7:35
Speaker 1: deal with h you know, the fight with UH with
7:38
Speaker 1: Snoop Dogg and Dre and all that and everything. So
7:41
Speaker 1: how did that happen? How did you end up having
7:43
Speaker 1: beef with Doctor? Well it made the record to you know,
7:47
Speaker 1: you know, thet yeah, all that. So then I was like, okay,
7:52
Speaker 1: all right, I just came out the blue. We it
7:56
Speaker 1: was this sugar night thing going on. Well, he was
7:59
Speaker 1: beating up. He was touching up everybody, and I was like, no,
8:01
Speaker 1: you ain't guy in Miami. Well no, he was touching
8:05
Speaker 1: up everybody everywhere. Yeah, and then it was like, yo,
8:07
Speaker 1: you're gonna touch Luke up. No, you ain't touching me
8:09
Speaker 1: a boss, because yeah, I rap about this booty shaking music,
8:12
Speaker 1: but I did live that life, you know, And I
8:14
Speaker 1: talked about in the book that ain't somebody ain't proud of,
8:17
Speaker 1: you know. And I always tell people, you know, guys
8:19
Speaker 1: who lived that life, who went through that, you know,
8:22
Speaker 1: they won't be rapping about that is the guys who
8:24
Speaker 1: ain't lived that life. They're just telling them stories about
8:26
Speaker 1: other people who they they looked up to, you know
8:29
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So you know when they said that,
8:32
Speaker 1: then before you know it, and now you know in
8:34
Speaker 1: the book we talked about those jacking the rapper, a
8:36
Speaker 1: big fight, you know, the big gut fence and all that.
8:39
Speaker 1: You know, those are things that went on, you know,
8:41
Speaker 1: and right now to Dave, Me and Snoop and everybody
8:43
Speaker 1: were cool. Why the shouldn't they feel like you could
8:45
Speaker 1: just beat up people everywhere? He was he because he
8:47
Speaker 1: was doing it for what though for money like he wanted,
8:50
Speaker 1: well he was he was, you know, for him to
8:53
Speaker 1: be able to get his way out power. That was
8:56
Speaker 1: very disrespectful with doctor Drake saying, say you got a
8:59
Speaker 1: gap too, so you know it? Well, yeah, well, and
9:04
Speaker 1: then everybody got touched up at jack there. Oh everybody
9:08
Speaker 1: got touched up. Oh you gotta read the books. Let
9:13
Speaker 1: me tell you something. Stuff everybody. Now, yeah, we ain't no,
9:15
Speaker 1: this ain't no meek meals type thing three or five.
9:19
Speaker 1: Yeah you yeah, you go. Look, you dissed one of
9:22
Speaker 1: the one of the guys down there, you dissed me.
9:25
Speaker 1: Then you got the whole city coming at you. I
9:27
Speaker 1: can't believe they would do that. You can't invite a man.
9:29
Speaker 1: You can't tell a man just suck my penis and
9:30
Speaker 1: didn't come to the man. And it didn't come to Atlanta.
9:33
Speaker 1: You don't supposed to go nowhere near the South, don't
9:36
Speaker 1: go to you know what I'm saying. But I guess
9:38
Speaker 1: that was back in the days. That's how we deal
9:40
Speaker 1: with it back in the day. What about French Montana
9:41
Speaker 1: because I heard when he sampled your record, you didn't
9:43
Speaker 1: like that too much and there was a problem with that. Yeah,
9:45
Speaker 1: I had. I had a little issue with that because
9:48
Speaker 1: I felt like, you know, how to due respect if
9:50
Speaker 1: you're gonna put that much of my voice in a
9:52
Speaker 1: song with me still living, you know I'm not dead, right,
9:56
Speaker 1: you know you should you should call me up and like, hey, look,
10:01
Speaker 1: but the way they kind of did it was kind of,
10:03
Speaker 1: you know, kind of interesting because at that period of time,
10:06
Speaker 1: I did a column in my in my in the
10:10
Speaker 1: newspaper that I that I do columns with about all
10:13
Speaker 1: these rappers living in Miami, you know, the little ways
10:16
Speaker 1: and all those guys of the world, that they need
10:18
Speaker 1: to start giving back to the community. I'll be involved
10:20
Speaker 1: in the community. So it was a little bit of
10:22
Speaker 1: beef with that. It's like, you enjoy our beaches, you
10:25
Speaker 1: enjoy our women, you enjoy our clubs, and I'll get
10:27
Speaker 1: back to the community. Yeah, if you're gonna live here,
10:28
Speaker 1: you know what, you need to do things in the community.
10:30
Speaker 1: And so they didn't tell me that the song. They
10:34
Speaker 1: asked me to come do this video like it was
10:36
Speaker 1: like Memorial Day weekend. They didn't They didn't tell me
10:38
Speaker 1: about the song. They didn't tell me who's in the song.
10:40
Speaker 1: But then I saw online that it was this Luke
10:43
Speaker 1: and Rick Ross and French Montell a new song, and
10:47
Speaker 1: I was like, what is this? So, you know, I
10:50
Speaker 1: kind of got a little bit of upset about it
10:52
Speaker 1: and say, hey, look man, you know y'all got to
10:54
Speaker 1: have more respect for people. You know, I don't know
10:56
Speaker 1: what's going on this new this new hip hop business,
10:59
Speaker 1: but in the old business, if you was gonna sample
11:01
Speaker 1: somebody music all at him and that much. You know,
11:05
Speaker 1: if you sample it, that's cool. But then you know,
11:08
Speaker 1: let me know, let me hear the song or song,
11:10
Speaker 1: let me endorse it at least record You know what
11:16
Speaker 1: I got. Yeah, I didn't get a check after I
11:18
Speaker 1: had a conversation with Okay you talk about yeah, that's yeah,
11:24
Speaker 1: you know the right thing. Yeah, you know, well you
11:26
Speaker 1: could have sued him if he didn't. I mean, well,
11:28
Speaker 1: I was ready to sue the hybody, right, But you
11:31
Speaker 1: talk about getting endor, you know, calling people. I've been saying,
11:34
Speaker 1: I want to use your record interesting storing the book
11:36
Speaker 1: Bruce Springsteen when you did band in the USA, Yeah,
11:39
Speaker 1: I talk about that. I mean because back then, when
11:41
Speaker 1: I was going through that, unfortunately people don't know nobody
11:44
Speaker 1: in the here pop industry. You had my back, guys
11:47
Speaker 1: like Salt and Pepper, you know, you name it, Kid
11:49
Speaker 1: play the girls, he said, guys like that. You got boy,
12:00
Speaker 1: you got really be on your toes up in Him'll
12:03
Speaker 1: know them, girl, the girls they're my friends. They're good now.
12:06
Speaker 1: But you know they all came out against us. You know,
12:09
Speaker 1: oh man, this is the worst thing in the world.
12:11
Speaker 1: They need to stop it. I know right, I know,
12:15
Speaker 1: you think it a ton to the time Uncle Luke
12:17
Speaker 1: had naked Willow. He was the first, even the first
12:20
Speaker 1: person to do and sometimes when your first person to
12:22
Speaker 1: do something, it is different for people and hard for
12:25
Speaker 1: them to embrace it. Yeah, they didn't understand, you know
12:29
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, And so everybody I would I just
12:31
Speaker 1: knew everybody was gonna cut in my defense to Russell Simmons,
12:35
Speaker 1: everybody in the world, but everybody basically was like kill them,
12:39
Speaker 1: kill them off, you know, get rid of them. And
12:41
Speaker 1: it kind of blew my mind at that time. But then,
12:44
Speaker 1: like I said, you know, the first person that stopped
12:47
Speaker 1: to me, that came to me was Bruce Springsteen and
12:50
Speaker 1: I talked about in the book. You know, he is
12:51
Speaker 1: a you know, old white guy, you know, and I'm
12:54
Speaker 1: thinking about doing this song banned in the USA, which
12:57
Speaker 1: is born in the USA, and he was like, nah,
12:59
Speaker 1: I'm with you. You know, I understand the struggle, and
13:02
Speaker 1: so you know, I ended up doing that song with
13:04
Speaker 1: his blessings and having a French conversation for Free. Did
13:07
Speaker 1: you get Bruce? Did you get Bruce from Free? Did
13:10
Speaker 1: you put them on some of them lout girls? No?

Speaker 1: Why did I ever do that? No? No, actually, let
16:37
Speaker 1: me tell you, hey, I wouldn't see I would see

Speaker 1: you don't look too good right now. Yeah, but not
16:48
Speaker 1: necessarily trip, I didn't. I didn't get down with the strippers.

Speaker 1: I bet your Facebook in books in box popping, yeah
16:53
Speaker 1: it is, yeah, yeah, you already making pictures of the
17:01

17:10
Speaker 1: giving back. Did y'all ever speak? They said, y'all done it,
17:12
Speaker 1: blowing up cars and all kinds of stuff. Man. Oh
17:14
Speaker 1: he got a little serious. Uh. But now we didn't
17:17
Speaker 1: really really speak, you know. Uh. I talked to some
17:19
Speaker 1: of the guys, you know, with them, because some of
17:21
Speaker 1: the dudes that hang out with them are guys who
17:23
Speaker 1: are kind of was raised up with. But now I
17:27
Speaker 1: just we we It was like, yeah, these dudes ain't
17:30
Speaker 1: gonna be here too long, they're gonna clear anyway. So
17:32
Speaker 1: you know, no, I didn't. I didn't feel dispect that
17:38
Speaker 1: at all. It was just me telling them, look, I
17:40
Speaker 1: don't care whether you and New Orleans or wherever you are.
17:43
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the problem with a lot of hip
17:45
Speaker 1: hop artists right now today. They don't feel like they
17:47
Speaker 1: gotta be involved, you know, in the political process in
17:50
Speaker 1: the community and all that. I mean we all did that.
17:53
Speaker 1: I mean you had rocked the vote, wrapped the vote.
17:55
Speaker 1: We all got involved, whether it was Cube or Russell Simmons, anybody.
18:00
Speaker 1: These guys don't do that nine days and that they
18:03
Speaker 1: need to do that. They don't know the power that
18:04
Speaker 1: they have because all these young people from eighteen to
18:07
Speaker 1: twenty five, they have a voter registration card because they
18:10
Speaker 1: got in and they voted on Obama. So just the
18:13
Speaker 1: meal fact that you just go and saying, look, you know, uh,
18:17
Speaker 1: we're gonna vote you out. You need to give the
18:20
Speaker 1: schools better education, they'll they'll. You just don't know. The
18:23
Speaker 1: politicians crap on themselves. I mean I do it every day,
18:27
Speaker 1: you know, because you know, we have block of voters
18:29
Speaker 1: down there that we put guys in you know, like
18:33
Speaker 1: one of the kids I talked about in the book,
18:35
Speaker 1: one of the kids came up my program, Keyon Hardeman,
18:39
Speaker 1: you know he was. He's the commissioner of that whole
18:42
Speaker 1: area right now over town and everything. Young guy, youngest
18:46
Speaker 1: youngest commissioner, sitting commissioner, you know, in the state of Florida.
18:50
Speaker 1: And this dude is doing big things. He beat everybody
18:53
Speaker 1: who had more twice the amount of money that he had.
18:57
Speaker 1: You know, he's fresh out of college, went to fam
19:00
Speaker 1: went got his law degree. Practice one one year at
19:04
Speaker 1: the Public Defendant's office. And what was like, Noah, you
19:07
Speaker 1: ain't got you know, we could do that around the country.
19:10
Speaker 1: That's how you say your community, and that's why I
19:12
Speaker 1: think people need to do. Your youth program has produced
19:14
Speaker 1: a lot of like big name athletes and just people
19:16
Speaker 1: in general. These guys ever kicked back something, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
19:20
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, out of my youth program, Liberty
19:23
Speaker 1: City Optimists, you know, we got you know, it's going
19:25
Speaker 1: on twenty five years today is I mean not today,
19:29
Speaker 1: but twenty five years. This this is our twenty fifth
19:31
Speaker 1: year annivers We got kids that came out of program.
19:34
Speaker 1: For Chad Johnson Antonio' Brien right now, Duke Johnson who
19:38
Speaker 1: plays for Cleveland Brown, Devonte Freeman, you name it, played
19:43
Speaker 1: for the Jets, Lavonte Davis who played the middle lineback
19:47
Speaker 1: for for for Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I mean, we got
19:51
Speaker 1: kids all over the country that came out of my
19:53
Speaker 1: youth program. So you get free tickets all kind of stuff.
19:56
Speaker 1: Well yeah, yeah, I mean people. And that's crazy because
20:00
Speaker 1: most people think Snooped All was the first one to
20:02
Speaker 1: start up you football. I mean I did it twenty
20:05
Speaker 1: five years ago. You at University in Miami, heavy and
20:08
Speaker 1: they kind of had an issue with you. Yeah. Yeah,
20:10
Speaker 1: I talked about in the book when I paid players.
20:12
Speaker 1: You know it was let me tell you, I don't
20:15
Speaker 1: think you post admit that you're paid players. Well I
20:17
Speaker 1: said it in the book. But it's a reason no.
20:22
Speaker 1: But yeah, the reason why, the reason why. You gotta
20:25
Speaker 1: understand people. People don't know even back then, right him
20:29
Speaker 1: him the rapper in town. I'm the big guy, you know,
20:33
Speaker 1: I'm the successful guy, right and I'm sitting there looking
20:35
Speaker 1: at the TV every day. These dudes breaking in other
20:38
Speaker 1: students rooms to then, you know, get money. They got
20:42
Speaker 1: kids at home because a lot of these kids right
20:44
Speaker 1: now that play football. They go to these colleges, they
20:46
Speaker 1: have kids. You know, people don't know that. So when
20:49
Speaker 1: they get to the college, you know, they can't get
20:52
Speaker 1: a job because that's illegal. If you play football and basketball,
20:55
Speaker 1: now you play tennis and golf, you can get a job.
20:58
Speaker 1: You know. So these kids were hurting bad, and I
21:01
Speaker 1: just didn't want to see them ruin their life by
21:03
Speaker 1: you know, having this opportunity to be able to get
21:06
Speaker 1: an education of free education using this football thing. So
21:09
Speaker 1: you know, I would go down and be like, look, man,
21:12
Speaker 1: if y'all gotta go do that, just call me up.
21:15
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, before you go rob somebody.
21:17
Speaker 1: And they would tell me this, or look, I don't
21:19
Speaker 1: have no shoes, I don't have no clothes. I don't
21:21
Speaker 1: I got send money home to take care of my mama,
21:23
Speaker 1: you know, and she's getting put out. I mean, it
21:26
Speaker 1: was making all this money, all this money. I mean,
21:29
Speaker 1: one kid, Lamar Thomas, you know, he's a coach down Lewinsville.
21:33
Speaker 1: You know, there was he was in college and his
21:36
Speaker 1: mama was getting put out of our house, you know,
21:39
Speaker 1: and I ended up, you know, uh have to uh
21:42
Speaker 1: help her pay her mortgage. Yeah, yeah, you know, and
21:46
Speaker 1: and the and the thing is, and when he made
21:48
Speaker 1: it in the league, he didn't you know, paid me
21:50
Speaker 1: the money back. But this man, mama was getting put
21:53
Speaker 1: out of our house, you know, which is incredible. And
21:56
Speaker 1: this kid is sitting in school and he's like, man,
21:58
Speaker 1: I'm about to leave to go in and go to
22:01
Speaker 1: work to pay the bills, and you know, unfortunately, I'm like, Noah,
22:05
Speaker 1: I ain't. So if they want to persecute me for that, fine,
22:08
Speaker 1: so be it. I'm not about to let no kid
22:11
Speaker 1: commit no crime and do those type of things. It's
22:13
Speaker 1: almost like they put kids in a position to mess
22:16
Speaker 1: up the opportunity. Yeah, like you give them the scholarship,
22:18
Speaker 1: but then they can't make no money, and then if
22:21
Speaker 1: they go out to do something stupid, they then up
22:22
Speaker 1: losing the scholarship, going to jail something, and then they're
22:24
Speaker 1: stupid they ruin their life. But no, there's a lot
22:26
Speaker 1: of things going on could do it. Yeah. When when
22:28
Speaker 1: the guy, the guy plays for old House State, he
22:31
Speaker 1: goes and uh get a free tattoo, and then he
22:33
Speaker 1: gets suspended. He has to then leave school early, he
22:36
Speaker 1: can't get a degree. Then goes to to the NFL
22:38
Speaker 1: the craziest thing in the world. And the NFL penalize
22:41
Speaker 1: him because he you know, he's a kid, and somebody
22:44
Speaker 1: paid for his tattoo, which is bananas, I mean, and
22:47
Speaker 1: so I you know, I talk about all these different
22:49
Speaker 1: things in the book. Has your football team ever played
22:51
Speaker 1: snoop football team and beat the dogs? Did you ever
22:55
Speaker 1: have to say, remember remember what happened to Jack the Rappers? Yeah?
22:58
Speaker 1: We beat him two times. You know, you guys are
23:01
Speaker 1: about cowboy fans because your cowboy friend Hardy. How far
23:06
Speaker 1: back you go? Let me check his mommy, my father.

Speaker 1: I remember Tony do set? Okay? See that's how far
23:14
Speaker 1: you go back? Lonely and Jeff and Jeff Frough and
23:19
Speaker 1: all them. Yeah you know what I'm saying. Yeah. Do
23:22
Speaker 1: you know one of the first African Americans that was
23:25
Speaker 1: drafted out of historical Black college went to the Cowboys?
23:28
Speaker 1: What his name was? I don't know. See that I
23:30
Speaker 1: got you educate you, Bob Hayes. He went to fam You,
23:35
Speaker 1: Bob Hayes, one of the fastest men in the world. Yeah,
23:38
Speaker 1: how you a cowboy fan of Miami. Man, I'm from
23:40
Speaker 1: South Carolina. He tells he talks about it in the
23:43
Speaker 1: book and why he is she read it. Tell you
23:45
Speaker 1: all about why she wants you to read. I'm gonna
23:49
Speaker 1: read the book anymore. Don't read and that and that,
23:52
Speaker 1: and that's what we need to change. That's what we
23:55
Speaker 1: need to change. And that's why, you know, everybody was like, well,
23:57
Speaker 1: you need to do the audio book. I'm like, no,
24:00
Speaker 1: I want people to go and read first. You know
24:02
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, read the book because I can get
24:04
Speaker 1: your audi the book and you'd be you know. But anyway,
24:06
Speaker 1: going back to the because the Dolphins, I just did
24:10
Speaker 1: not like them, but I thought they treated black players wrong.
24:13
Speaker 1: I mean I read a book about Don Shuler when
24:16
Speaker 1: Don Shuler was the coach at the at the Baltimore
24:19
Speaker 1: Coats at that time. Man, he didn't ended up in Miami,
24:23
Speaker 1: and uh, some of the players on the coach thought
24:25
Speaker 1: he was racist. And then when he started coaching now
24:28
Speaker 1: and now I thought he was a little racist as well.
24:30
Speaker 1: He used to run the black guy all the way
24:32
Speaker 1: Mercury marsh All the way down to the gold line
24:34
Speaker 1: and then he would bring in Jim Kick score a touchdown.
24:38
Speaker 1: And then you know in Paul Warfield and you know
24:40
Speaker 1: he was running around, you know, uh, catching balls and
24:44
Speaker 1: then he was bringing the white guys. So when you
24:45
Speaker 1: saw the Super Bowl last year, you said, you knew
24:47
Speaker 1: they wasn't giving up the Marshawn Lynchton. No. I knew that, Yeah,
24:52
Speaker 1: because that's I mean, that's the game. And you would think,
24:55
Speaker 1: you know, they wanted to you know, they wanted u
24:57
Speaker 1: Man to be the Yeah, they wanted him to be
24:59
Speaker 1: the hero because they know, I mean, that was an
25:01
Speaker 1: easy pass. You know, I coached high school football right now,
25:04
Speaker 1: and that was an easy pass to make, you know,
25:07
Speaker 1: but the guy ended up breaking on it. But they
25:09
Speaker 1: wanted the quarterback to be the hero. But then at
25:11
Speaker 1: the end of the day, look how crazy football is
25:14
Speaker 1: even right now here. We got a quarterback in Miami,
25:18
Speaker 1: this got Tennant Hill. He gets one hundred million dollars
25:20
Speaker 1: and this guy then't been to the Super Bowl back
25:23
Speaker 1: to back and he don't get nowhere near the same
25:25
Speaker 1: amount of money that he got. Yes, sir, so I
25:27
Speaker 1: mean we're still living in some crazy times. Do you
25:30
Speaker 1: feel like, um, you don't get to respect you deserve
25:32
Speaker 1: as an artist because you weren't a quote unquote traditional
25:34
Speaker 1: rapper because like like your style kind of fathered like
25:37
Speaker 1: the Little John's of the world. You know what I'm saying,
25:39
Speaker 1: You wasn't like a McCain. Well, it's more so the
25:46
Speaker 1: record label, you know. I yeah, I think me. I
25:50
Speaker 1: wasn't a rapper, you know, number one, I was much
25:53
Speaker 1: more hype man. You know, I got the party. I
25:55
Speaker 1: was more of a DJ than a rapper. So as
25:58
Speaker 1: far as the respect in that aspect, you know, I
26:00
Speaker 1: could understand. I'm not a rapper. You know, I'm not
26:03
Speaker 1: very being rocky him. I'm not gonna sit up here
26:04
Speaker 1: and be like, Okay, well I need to be spoken
26:06
Speaker 1: about like Cuba any of those guys that the Doom
26:10
Speaker 1: Dudes are rappers. You know, I fit, you know, with
26:13
Speaker 1: the Two Live Crew as a as a hype man.
26:16
Speaker 1: You know, I did a chance call a response things
26:19
Speaker 1: like that. Only the issue that I had with the
26:22
Speaker 1: industry is not giving me the same respect that you
26:26
Speaker 1: that they gave Craig Coleman, Jimmy Ivens and all them
26:29
Speaker 1: other worlds because they came up the same way I
26:31
Speaker 1: came up. I remember sitting in the office in Doug
26:34
Speaker 1: Morris office. When you know, it was Jimmy Iveen, Craig Commen,
26:38
Speaker 1: Craig Commen, he had a little record company in Chicago
26:42
Speaker 1: and he was selling a few records, and you know,
26:45
Speaker 1: he was the next guy. And then Jimmy, he was
26:48
Speaker 1: doing his thing and I'm sitting on the couch at
26:50
Speaker 1: the same time. But I was selling records, you know,
26:53
Speaker 1: and down in the South when nobody wouldn't give me
26:57
Speaker 1: a deal. That I did sell this stuff out of
26:58
Speaker 1: the trunk of my car. You know, I just I
27:00
Speaker 1: didn't go and make the records at the pressing plant myself,
27:04
Speaker 1: you know, and him, I'm doing gospel albums, I'm doing
27:08
Speaker 1: I'm going gold and platinum on R and B albums
27:11
Speaker 1: and not just two live crewe because I felt I
27:15
Speaker 1: want I'm not gonna get the respect as an executive.
27:17
Speaker 1: I've only got this type of music here, so I
27:19
Speaker 1: got to be a little more versatile. So that's what
27:22
Speaker 1: made me do the poison claims, made do you know,
27:24
Speaker 1: find the pit bulls and do the age Times of
27:27
Speaker 1: the World. So been in the respect of executive. Now
27:31
Speaker 1: I don't get no respect. Are you mad you didn't
27:33
Speaker 1: get a piece of pit bull man, huh. I signed
27:37
Speaker 1: them up, you know, and I let you know. It
27:39
Speaker 1: was difficult when we brought him out. You know, when
27:42
Speaker 1: I brought him out at the time I was going
27:43
Speaker 1: through all this, you know, I didn't have the same
27:46
Speaker 1: passion you know that I had. You know, I could
27:49
Speaker 1: have gotten an override, but I don't think. I don't
27:51
Speaker 1: think nobody should getting no money off nothing that they
27:53
Speaker 1: ain't working for. You know what me and Pit right
27:55
Speaker 1: now today, that's like my son. You know, everything that
27:58
Speaker 1: he'd do, you know, a large part over that I
28:00
Speaker 1: taught him, you know, I mean here here, this kid.
28:03
Speaker 1: I mean when you read about him in the book,
28:05
Speaker 1: he was not a nice guy. Remember, boy, I used
28:07
Speaker 1: to I used to come to Miami around two thousand
28:09
Speaker 1: and one. He used to be with Lewis Diaz them.
28:12
Speaker 1: That was, yeah, that was he was riding around a
28:14
Speaker 1: little I think it was like a little Sadden. He
28:16
Speaker 1: was a hood. Yeah, No, that was that was after
28:20
Speaker 1: I discovered him. When I discovered him and he was
28:21
Speaker 1: straight out of the street of open locker. You know,
28:23
Speaker 1: guys were talking, my old man, this dude, it's corny
28:26
Speaker 1: Pit Pitt is uh. Pitt is probably one of the
28:30
Speaker 1: best rappers that I've ever heard freestyle in my entire life.
28:35
Speaker 1: I mean, just like go off the top of the head.
28:37
Speaker 1: You know, he just felt into what he's doing right
28:39
Speaker 1: now and he took it. Yeah. You know he is
28:41
Speaker 1: no joke the freestyle, and I mean he would dissect
28:45
Speaker 1: you in a minute. Do you like the evolution of
28:47
Speaker 1: Miami music? Do you like where it went? Where it went?
28:50
Speaker 1: I don't like where it's saying right now because there's
28:52
Speaker 1: no sound, you know. Uh, I don't think the DJ
28:55
Speaker 1: Callis and the Rick Rosses of the world are not
28:58
Speaker 1: putting on enough. It's from Miami. I mean I had
29:01
Speaker 1: the record company. You know, you would never heard about
29:04
Speaker 1: Pitt Bull to know. I mean, here's a kid from
29:06
Speaker 1: around your trick Danny, you know what I'm saying, Uh
29:09
Speaker 1: poison Claim, JT Money. All these guys are from Miami.
29:12
Speaker 1: Before I start signing groups like Bust down in New
29:16
Speaker 1: Orleans and and uh people like uh MC shoty them.
29:20
Speaker 1: You know, I put them guys on in the neighborhood.
29:23
Speaker 1: And these guys, you know, now that you got the
29:26
Speaker 1: light and you got the mic, you gotta put these
29:28
Speaker 1: guys on. It's a whole bunch of kids down there,
29:31
Speaker 1: like you know, yah d y D and you you
29:34
Speaker 1: have blades, and it's it's a stupid amount of kids.
29:38
Speaker 1: But then what I started thinking about it, I was like, well,
29:41
Speaker 1: you know, they gonna put the meat meals and all
29:43
Speaker 1: these guys on in the world because they can never
29:46
Speaker 1: claim Miami. If you get another guy, if I go
29:49
Speaker 1: sign a guy from New York and I'm the big
29:52
Speaker 1: guy in Miami. If I sign another big guy in Miami,
29:55
Speaker 1: another kid in Miami and blow him up, then he
29:57
Speaker 1: gonna take my shine. He's gonna be the big guy
29:59
Speaker 1: in Ami. So I started thinking about it down that line.
30:02
Speaker 1: But I hope hopefully those guys start doing it. Other
30:05
Speaker 1: than that, they're just gonna forced me to get back
30:07
Speaker 1: in the business because it's too much tiling down out. Yeah,
30:12
Speaker 1: God played there for a minute, so hopefully do good
30:17
Speaker 1: and Ross it's okay. You know, I got you know,
30:20
Speaker 1: I always, you know, I always a lot of people
30:22
Speaker 1: think that, you know, like I go hard on him.
30:25
Speaker 1: I speak from you know, I'm the uncle. You know,
30:27
Speaker 1: I try to give them constructive criticism, you know, about
30:31
Speaker 1: doing the right thing. I mean, I got a good
30:34
Speaker 1: real I mean, kale is a guy that you know,
30:36
Speaker 1: I discovered on my radio show. He was a DJ.
30:39
Speaker 1: You know. Uh, we brought him on the Luke Show.
30:42
Speaker 1: I had the show on Friday nights on the Raid
30:45
Speaker 1: because they never had a mixed show in Miami, and
30:46
Speaker 1: I was like, man, I'm going all over the world
30:48
Speaker 1: they got mixed shows, you know, I'll go do it.
30:50
Speaker 1: And then you know, all these guys from college to
30:52
Speaker 1: pop l Key, you name it. They were on the show,
30:55
Speaker 1: to DJ Iri and all of them. So I'm proud that,
30:58
Speaker 1: you know, they were able to develop a career through that.
31:02
Speaker 1: But you know, I'm okay with them. You know, still,
31:05
Speaker 1: I think they all need to do a little more
31:06
Speaker 1: in the community. I just think they need to get
31:09
Speaker 1: more involved. You once said Rick Ross could end up
31:11
Speaker 1: like Biggie with all those beefs. You know, Ay, he
31:16
Speaker 1: chilled out, You don't. He had too many beefs going on.
31:18
Speaker 1: It was too much going on. You know, you're riding
31:20
Speaker 1: down the street and you're sitting at the donuts shopping
31:23
Speaker 1: they shooting call. I did not want to see that
31:25
Speaker 1: for him, you know, because I was me and Big
31:27
Speaker 1: was good friends. You know, that was my that was
31:30
Speaker 1: my dude and I you know, I just did not
31:33
Speaker 1: want to see that that happened to him, you know,
31:35
Speaker 1: so you know, just do your music. Man't worry about
31:37
Speaker 1: all these dudes. How did you and Big gets so cool? Men?
31:40
Speaker 1: Big was cool? I mean because when I used to
31:42
Speaker 1: come here to New York, Uh, this guy used to
31:46
Speaker 1: find me and we used to hang out. I mean yeah.
31:50
Speaker 1: And one thing that was shocking when he told when
31:52
Speaker 1: he when men him talking, I know that, you know,
31:54
Speaker 1: I vibe with him because I was really vibe with
31:57
Speaker 1: too many people. When he told me one of his
32:00
Speaker 1: groups was the Poison Can and he started reciting JT.
32:04
Speaker 1: Money lyrics. You know, life's a bit so why I
32:06
Speaker 1: married one? He was like, man, that's something that Dopey
32:08
Speaker 1: Shop heard. And so we ended up becoming friends. Every
32:12
Speaker 1: time he comes down to Miami, will hang out. You know.
32:14
Speaker 1: I put him in a few orgies and everything. I
32:16
Speaker 1: put him in a few ords. Though. We get on
32:18
Speaker 1: the boat. That's why when he did the song, he
32:20
Speaker 1: was like his lyrics were deep throat on loop boat
32:24
Speaker 1: and yeah, so I mean we would we would have fun.
32:27
Speaker 1: You know. That was that was my man. And even
32:30
Speaker 1: going through all that Pocket and Biggie thing. I mean,
32:33
Speaker 1: you know, just having those conversations with he really feel
32:36
Speaker 1: he really felt bad about all that. Were you ever
32:39
Speaker 1: scared about STDs anything like that, man, because you lived
32:42
Speaker 1: the wild life stuff? Well it's called condoms. Yeah, it
32:47
Speaker 1: was condoms. I mean when I my first couple of
32:49
Speaker 1: years in the business, I was wilding out. I was
32:52
Speaker 1: a freshman in college. Raw dog king, No, not raw
32:54
Speaker 1: dog say that. And after after the first cover of years,
33:00
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, I got to run the
33:01
Speaker 1: record company. I gotta go back to the office. These
33:05
Speaker 1: dudes here, y'all could do y'all thing, and and uh,
33:07
Speaker 1: I just you know, and then I start seeing the
33:10
Speaker 1: wild stuff that girls would do on stage and that
33:13
Speaker 1: they would do backstage, and and it kind of it
33:16
Speaker 1: kind of made me like, yo, I got to be careful.
33:18
Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna be picky about who I even
33:21
Speaker 1: mess with, you know. And and so I was totally
33:23
Speaker 1: opposite of what people thought that was. They thought I
33:25
Speaker 1: was just getting in everybody how to make sure you
33:32
Speaker 1: you was you know, you'd had them, and they were
33:34
Speaker 1: to just did whatever you you know what I mean,
33:36
Speaker 1: you'd have been telling you still have that kind of powers.
33:38
Speaker 1: I'm sure you do. Yeah, because of man, he doesn't
33:42
Speaker 1: want that no more. Why I didn't do your bachelor party.
33:46
Speaker 1: I ain't even have one. Oh you really married? Yeah, yeah,
33:51
Speaker 1: you got one of them kind of help because I
34:04
Speaker 1: remember when you had your reality So you did not
34:06
Speaker 1: like your wife's bachelorette party? No, I didn't like it.
34:09
Speaker 1: Didn't have that kind of fun. Now, how did you
34:10
Speaker 1: convince the woman to marry you? Hey? Man? You know
34:13
Speaker 1: that was that was the thing, right you know my
34:17
Speaker 1: wife Kristen and she listening to it. I mean, that
34:19
Speaker 1: was the thing. It was like, I know who I
34:22
Speaker 1: am as a person. I know my mom raised, you know,
34:24
Speaker 1: I went through my my time. I mean, you know,
34:27
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure you know when everybody in this room
34:29
Speaker 1: your first success and when y'all got Hollywood at the beginning,
34:34
Speaker 1: y'all just popped off. And you know I did that,
34:36
Speaker 1: so you know the whole thing. I know, you know,
34:39
Speaker 1: I know who I was, and it was it was
34:42
Speaker 1: great to know that women that I did like and
34:44
Speaker 1: I talked to and it was like, I don't want
34:46
Speaker 1: to be bothered with you because I know y'all rappers,
34:49
Speaker 1: y'all just wild and I know y'all, you know, you
34:51
Speaker 1: freaky man and all that, and I would be like, no,
34:54
Speaker 1: I'm not like that. And then I always knew that
34:56
Speaker 1: the woman that I would end up marrying would see
34:59
Speaker 1: me as a person not must sow the business. Because
35:02
Speaker 1: if you saw me from the business standpoint that I mean,
35:04
Speaker 1: you want me because of the business that I mean,
35:07
Speaker 1: you don't want the actual person. So you know, I
35:10
