  Speaker 1: everybody for all the positive feedback and the negative feedback.

  Speaker 1: and I gotta fix that. I don't want to have
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: bad posture, bro, I really don't want that to happen.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: So been looking at all the feedback though, getting a
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: lot of positive feed back. Besides this white motherfucker don't
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: know rap music that seems to be the commonality amongst
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: most of the comments. But with that being said, go
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: fuck yourself. I know plenty more about hip hop than
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: you'll ever fucking know in your life. Anyway, Today's a
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: crazy day the election recording this the morning of November three,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: and no matter where you fall on the political spectrum,
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: it's safe to say that this election is gonna be

• 1:51
  Speaker 1: about those three dudes, specifically hell Rel and Jarl Ryder.

• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Dipset flag and run with it for like another ten years. Unfortunately,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: that's not really what transpired. As we all know, there

  Speaker 1: when you're sixteen and you first thirty five, So when
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: you when you're sixteen you first meet Cam, this is
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: around with the which era is this? This is after?
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: This is after? Yeah, this is around the time I
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: met him, right when Juel's got signed. Jim didn't even
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: have a deal yet. So was this around taking me home? No,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: come home, Come Home? That's like a Drake song. Bro.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: I just had this huge Drake argument all day to
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: day on the internet and I was just listening to
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Drake's album in my car. He's all right, that's what
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: the argument was about. But no come home with me.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: I feel like it was like Cam's like coming out party, uh,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: you know, his first project with Rockefeller, and I feel
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: like that kicked off the real Like obviously Dipset was
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: doing their thing with the mixtapte, and I feel like
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: that really kicked off the wave of like the movement
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: where it was felt nationwide like oh yeah, like Dipset
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: was something that wasn't just like New York's secret. You
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. No, that's a fact. Like I
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: don't know if Cam planned it or I really think
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: it probably happened naturally. But he has that confidence like
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: all of us from Halem has that confidence where it's
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: like this is this is what we're gonna do. Be,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: We're gonna put out this, We're gonna we was like
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: the first dip set honestly was like the first rap
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: group to put out street mixtapes without DJs like the
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: DJ because usually you could debate, you could debate j Unit,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: you could debate because they came out saying but they
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: still had like when you say with out of DJ,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: like obviously they had who Kid and I think who
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Kid was was DJ NO, but Caseills hosted I was
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: hosted the dip set ship. Yeah, so you were around
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: during You might not have been official yet, but you
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: were around like the diplomatic community wave Like, yeah, I
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: was supposed to be on the first album, but the
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: song me and Kim and mheard McGruff from Harlem shouts
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: to him. We had didn't get cleared. So little things
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: like that, I felt like God put in my in
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: my path, in my way for me to go harder
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: from haters to little little obstacles like that to where
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: it's like not easy for me, so I can always
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: stay on my toes and always focus. But you was
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: around during that time, No I was around. I was
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: just crazy. That's like, YO, tell me about those times, man,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: because I just remember vividly as a kid buying the
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Double XL where everybody was in there with the Thames
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: and that was like when I first saw like I
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: really got to kind of like figure out who Jim
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Jones was. Yeah, I forget everybody had jerseys on in
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: the ex Double Jerseys, Michelle Times and shit, I remember
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: that you're vividly like the airbrush toms and all that.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Ye yep, But like, what was it like being around
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: that energy because we look at it now and it's
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: like we missed that in hip hop? You know. I
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: think dipset is so nostalgic to so many people. To me,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: you know specifically, I remember, you know, just like that
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: whole era, just just just the feeling that it brought
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: to the game, and like, I feel like it's missing,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: but you were there for it, Like did you realize
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: like how special this shit was at the time? Because
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: at the time, it wasn't like Dipset was like the
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: commercially the biggest ship, but it was like in this
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: it was like culturally so big, you know what I'm saying.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Like obviously, Kim had hit records, Jewels had hit records,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: but I mean like like culturally they meant so much
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: at that time. Did you know, like what you were
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: part of at that time when you were like a kid.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: Reason I even got damn with Kim and Hollered as
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: somebody to get me to him is because he him
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: and Jim and Juelle's already had that wave already where
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: it was just a hood wave where it's like everybody knew.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm pretty sure other places knew about Joel's
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: in the beginning or whatever off cam sde album, but
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: but uh, like uh, the mixtapes and and and those
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: albums or whatever had them as her legends already. So
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: me just you know what I mean, getting down with
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: them at that time was like a dream come true.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: It's like, Yo, that's like somebody being from Brooklyn getting
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: signed with Jay Z, or somebody being from la and
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: getting down with Snoop Dogg dog Pam. You know, what
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. But it was just it was magical. It's
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: like you know what I mean, because it's like I
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: would come in and you know they swag. Is just
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: like or I was swag because I was there. But
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying, I'm looking from the outside, looking at
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But it was just it
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: was dope. It was dope, you know what I'm saying.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Just from the fashion to the from to the touring
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: to the radio freestyles. Uh uh everything from when we
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: was at the bottom to where we at the top. Everything,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: the whole, the whole uh run we had was was
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: just epic. It's dope. Do you remember how you were
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: when you officially finally got your name on the on
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: the contract with Cam. I was eighteen years old. I
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: remember because uh we was on the tour bus and

  Speaker 1: was because Jim had that idea. And you know, when
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: an artist says, yo, I'm gonna come up with my
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: own liquor and all that, it doesn't matter where he
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: at at his in his career. It's dope, it's salutable.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: But we care about your music more than the sil
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: things that you're coming out with. But every when we
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: came out with that, everyone ran with it. That bottle
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: was like a rose bottle in the hood. Everywhere we went,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: it was just it was just fire. I mean, just
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: to you know, we was that influential. I mean when
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: I toured the world, that's when I really realized how
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: big dipset was. Going to Japan, Switzerland, Sweden, you know,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: all those places on my own at that Yeah, that's crazy.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Fast forward a year and a half or two ago,
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: when did when did you when did you guys drop
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: your your project you upstage? How long ago was that?
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: It was like last year of the year twenty eighteen,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: so yeah, so about two years ago. What do you
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: guys dropped it the same day as Dipset dropped their
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: shit h the same day as Diplomatic Community, and then
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: I remember hitting play on it and I was on
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: the intro. You guys used like a question should I
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: asked Jim in an interview like as the intro, and
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh, and that's I think. I was, Yeah, yeah,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: you said thanks for the shoutout that so I'm like,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: you know what, let me hit him No, But uh,
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: I think that there's like, what's your relationship like with
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: everybody in the crew now? Because I feel like that
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: kind of felt like there might be some some you know,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: obviously you guys dropped like the record, no reunions, like
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: is there any static? It's just a bunch of us
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: and we're not always on the same page, you know
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So you know it's all love, It's not.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: It wasn't like on some I I'm gonna put out
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: the album and as a disk, you know what I'm saying,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: or as a response. It's like, Okay, I hear that
• 17:38

• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Since we can't do I ain't get no phone call,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: but I'm not gonna lie. A week before I was releasing,
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Joel's had called me, you know what I'm saying, to
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: get on the album. But this is before he was
• 17:52

• 17:55
  Speaker 1: shout the Jewels. He just came home. But it wasn't Yeah,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: it wasn't no static. But as far as now, I
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: got no problems with nobody. I supposed to. I supposed
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: to gym, I speak to duels, you know what I mean? Here,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: it seems like Cam is the one who consistently Cam
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: is the one that messed everything up. Nah, but it
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: just seems it feels like he's the guy who's like
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: I feel like Jim and Jewels are always cool. I
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: feel like it's always like a Cam thing, at least
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: from the outside looking in as a fan, Like, yeah,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, Cam is Cam is Kim. You
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. He's he's gonna move on his
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: own time, So it is what it is. Do you
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: know how he felt about you? Guys doing that about
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: doing the project. Yeah, I heard from from somebody that
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: he probably mad at me. But you know, so have
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: you kill No? I haven't. No, I haven't, but shouts
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: to Kim. You know what I'm saying, he doing business
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: with my guy Ryan. We got a whole CBD company
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: coming out or whatever, call legends of him where we're
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: doing you know, lines with different legends or whatever. You know,
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: check out that. Do you find it a gift in
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: a curse? Being associate Like obviously with being a part
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: of dip set and the allure in the history, there's
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: always a built in fan base for that. Like it's
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: almost like you know fan base by its like as
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: soon as like you, like somebody finds out your dip set,
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: like right now with Tde, some if TDE signed somebody,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: they got crazy fans that are just gonna fuck with
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: that artist no matter what. Is that a gift in
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: a curse to kind of like always carry the dip
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: set like with you, like, like, is it it's a
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: gift in a curse? Because it's like sometimes a person
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: might not know how to answer a certain question at
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: a certain moment, you know what I'm saying, Because it's
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: it's a bunch of us, you know what I'm saying.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Plus that name is attached to anywhere I go. Whether
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: I do an interview next week, them questions are gonna
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: come up, you know what I'm saying. So, but I
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: don't think it's a it's a curse at all, you
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: know what I mean. I don't think it's a curse
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: because I help build that, you know what I'm saying. So,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's a curse. Yeah, we talk about Harlem,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: and Harlem's got such a crazy history. I remember the
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: first time I ever went to New York, the first like,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: one of the only things that I care to do
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: is go to Harlem and take a picture in front
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: of the big album mural. Oh yeah, we were just
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: out there. I had the Ferrari out there. Yeah, baby
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: mom at the time. We took the train and I
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: was like, look, I just need to get this one picture.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. That's crazy. We win ate
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: at what's the soul food spot there? The big popular
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: soul food place you talk about Rufe Chris, You're talking
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: about soul food spot Amy Rooths my bad, Yeah, Sylvia's.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: I went to Sylvias. Yeah, yeah, Fred is more outside
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: than me. I'm in the studio all day, he said,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: I'm in Fred, that's him, that's I'm outside. You gotta
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: come outside. Yeah. So, like you've obviously been putting in work,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: but like with with with the new project, Davey somebody
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: also who you know is one of the greats the
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: at the city right now? Is it? Like you you
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: mentioned that there's gonna be an album. How do you
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: separate what's on the EPO what's on the album? Like
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: do you tuck certain ship like this is the album? Shit?
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: So yeah, because I with albums we had, I got
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: songs that are like they sound like album cuts with
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: my EPs or my mixtapes on my street albums or
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: whatever you want to label them. As long as they
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: not it's not called the album. It's more of a
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: like a I'm proving myself. I still got it, I'm
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: still better than everybody. This is how I'm coming. So
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: you know what time it is when this album is dropping.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: See the album, you'll have some of that, but you'll
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: have more of a mixture of concepts and real songs
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: laid out with hooks and you know what I mean.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: Few skits. This is the get warmed up again. I
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: haven't put nothing out in two years, so it's crazy
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: to think how how how big of a wrench was you?
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: You going to jail man? Do you think in your momentum?
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Because I felt like you had so much momentum. It
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: was a good That's a gift in the curse, honestly,
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: because the curse is taking me away from my family,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: taking my freedom away obviously, and taking my career away
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: for the moment, what about the gift part. The gift
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: is uh, snapping me out of it and keeping me
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: focused and waking me up. It just made me away.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: It got me back into books and really has me
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: more focused. Like two years. I mean, yeah, that's that's
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: a lifetime in hip hop. Yeah, that's that's yeah. I
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: mean if I wasn't. I mean, you look around all
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: the top top rappers of what how old are they? Yeah, dude,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: I just had this conversation with Benny, like Benny's old,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Like damn, Benny's like an older Like you know, we
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: look like generic hip hop fans look at Griselda as
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: these new artists. Because it came up like, well, for
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: these guys have been grinding for a minute, like these
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: guys are my age, like, yo, Like, these guys aren't
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: new rappers. You're just hearing them now, but these are
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: grown ass men. You know what I wanted to ask Benny.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: I wanted to see because back in the day, I
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: always heard the name Black Sopranos, so I wanted to
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: know if they always if he always went with that
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: with that, I think that that's been around for a while,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: yo Oka. Yeah, and then even Griselda didn't become Griselda
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: officially until I think like twenty sixteen. It was I
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: forget what West Side Gun had, what the name of
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: his label was prior to that. But yeah, the Buffalo shit, Yeah,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: they got it on smash. How inspiring is that to
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: see like bars the shit you Yeah, it's five. It
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: gets me. It gets me. It gets me like jealous,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: but not in a bad way, and it gets me motivated.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: But that's what that's what the two thousands used to
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: do for me, Like the Fabs, Jada Kiss albums, Lloyd
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Banks freestyles, like all of those freestyles and dudes that
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: was really lyrical, from Stack Bundles to everybody that was
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: that was really rapping. It's like they kept me on
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: my toes for one for two. They motivated me. When
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: it's like it's like I'm hating and I'm motivated at
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: the same time. I was like, Oh, we killed that.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: I gotta go crazy the next time I go up there,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: I gotta go crazy on the next freestyle. I do
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying? Because now though, I mean, well,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: before Griselda and after the two thousands, obviously it just
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: was drop man. It's like, yeah, you know, if you
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: were paying attention there. It wasn't like if you were
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: like a super you know, underground head. But like definitely
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: on the on the forefront year though the ship is.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: I always say like the dark years are like twenty
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: seventeen through twenty nineteen when the SoundCloud shit really took over.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: It was bad man. There was like even when I
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: came a little Pump a little Pump era. Yeah, that
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: that era, that shit was. I mean it's still going on,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: nah that. I think that shit's finally dying out, man,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: I really do. Like I think all that Antiqus shit,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: all that shit like perfect fading out six nine shit. Everybody,
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: it was like a fucking car crash. Nobody could look away,
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: but then when the music came out, no one cares. Yeah.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: I think it was more about let's see what's gonna
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: happen in the antics. Yeah, like all you know, his
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: story is insane, Like whenever they make his movie, like,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch it because it's a crazy story. Like
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: if someone just told you that mm hm, and like
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: without knowing who he was or having any sort of
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: personal feelings to it, you'd be like, nah, that's crazy,
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: fam normal, Like look like that's a movie you'd watch because,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: like the ship is, it's a crazy story. But yeah,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: I think that that whole wave of like people being
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: known more for the bullshit they pop on their cloud
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: than their music. I think COVID low key kind of
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: helped too, because people aren't standing on couches and clubs
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: right now. They're like that's the fact they're consuming music
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: in their headphones, got their cars. Yeah, you gotta wrap
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: And that's I think it's it's helping bring a lot
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: of the dope ship to to the like yeah, because
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: if you look the week that they need a butcher
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: black Dot, Freddy Gibbs hist gives tons of dope shit
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: is throw got thirty eight specially. Yeah, thirty eight Spash
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: is crazy and he's been nice. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: for sure, he's crazy. I need to get him up here.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. Him and Benny's project was crazy a couple
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: of years ago. But yeah, I think, like you know,
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: with you, I think it's like it's it's like you said,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: like it was a gift in the curse that you
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: you know, went away. And so how different was the
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: like the dynamic of the crew from when you went
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: into when you got out. When I went in, it
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: was already it was still like fractured. Yeah, it was.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: It was like everybody doing their own thing. I mean
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: it was like that before, but we moved as a unit.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: I think fame and money it just made like our
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: circle crowded because now once we all popped, now we
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: all got an entourages and now it's not just us,
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: it's all of us. It's like this enterage, that enterrage,
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: that entourage. So I don't know, I just think maybe
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: a complicated things, but it's all love. It's not like
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: I think if Kim was to pick up the phone
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: and call anybody, he could make a dips ever union
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: happen anytime. No, for sure, Yeah, no, I think he's
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: got that. Yo. We were just talking about how back
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: in the day dipset it was like a thing like
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: a signature to rhyme the same words, to rhyme the
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: same words. Yeah, I think, in my heart, I think
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: Jewel started that. No, for sure, that's a Jewel statement. All.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: I just was listening to some throwback freeze that he
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: had and that was the first because I studied lyrics
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: for real, and that's the first time I seen that
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: scheme where he's. Cam wasn't doing that on like SDE
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: and even come Home. Cam started doing that after Jewel's,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: but it didn't really matter because Joel's is his all this,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So, but yeah, Jewell's I
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: think Jewel started that when he said, you think a
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: good jobs making twenty five an hour got cats selling
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: twenty five twenties by the hour, That's what he's saying.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: And I'm the one paying. I'm twenty five an hour. Yeah, nah,
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: twenty five for what told you? Like, Yo, they go
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: ride the same shit, but it's it's it means something
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: different every time. Every time. It's like it makes it
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: that much harder. Yeah, facts, facts it's almost harder to
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: do that than rhymen it with a new word. That's easy. Yeah, yeah,
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: you know what I was just telling. I had my
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: video shoot for this song nothing Means Nothing off my
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: album off my EP coming out October thirtieth, Friday, Yeah Friday,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: feature in thirty eight, So that's just coming out Monday,
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: So this will be out already, dope. So the EP's out. Yeah,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: EP is out. Go get that And if you watching this,
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: then you already know the EP. Crazy and if you don't,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: then go listen to that. But anyway, I was just
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: shooting a video in the heights with my god thirty
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: eight specially. I was telling them because on the verse
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: that he spit, he rhymed for like thirty two bars,
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: but the same rhyme, like the same how you explain it,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: like the same rhyme and pattern, Like he never switched
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: the rhyme scheme, huh know, the scheme like the yeah,
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: like he's never yeah like that, he just rhymed with
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: not the same words, but the same scheme. Yeah, the
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: same scheme, like it's never switched out to rhyme with
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: anything else. And it was fired straight through. I'm like
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: that's fire. That's impressive to keep that going because it's
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: so easy to just say two lines and then switch
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: it again and then and then a lot of these
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: rappers they don't rhyme multiple syllables. So to me, this
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: don't be sounding impressive, but I know to the people
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: it's like, nah, that was real shitty kick though. Yeah,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: I think everybody has their own thing. I think, you know,
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: there's artists who say things in an extremely simple way,
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: but the way they say it is the character, you know,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: the way they say it. You know, I think that
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: there's guys who rap really fucking fast. They don't say anything,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: but they all flow. That's just the flow. And there
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: are there are people who could do both. There's people
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: who rap like that that are fucking fired, like m
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: yeah am Tech nine. Like there's some dudes who could
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: really get down. But like, I think that just everybody
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: has their own thing, like you know, and then there's
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: guys like Royce who are like fucking old Knights Jed Eyes,
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: like Race to Fight nine can do is elite. It's crazy.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: Do you like get like intimidating when you know you're like,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: did you first of all, do you know Race is
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: getting on the record like or is it something you
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: send to him. I'm gonna be real with you, bro,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: I ain't intimidated by nobody's work in a session with
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Low Wayne. Low Wayne my gotto. But Race is a
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: much better rapper than Lil Wayne. For the record, it's ablatable.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: Lil Wayne is bigger, It's debatable. I don't know, man,
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Race is a fucking murderer. Bro. I gotta be in
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: a student with Royce to really because I witnessed this
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: man wheezy like it's different off the top record diverse
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: and say I don't like the middle, erase the middle
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: and then go back in and just no, not go
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: back in. He's still live and do it right there
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: after he said a Race. Yeah, so you you've seen
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: Wayne's creative process. What is that like? Is it no pen?
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: Is it no pen? No pen? It's just you might
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: listen to the beat a few times, chuckle, laugh a
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: little bit, and then walk to the boot. Is he
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: just punching as he goes? No? One shot deal really,
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: And if you don't like a line or he don't
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: like to go back and fix it, you just say, yeah,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: let's do that over, do you? How do you do
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: your thing because obviously you're the writer, writer one tape,
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? You don't write down anything? No, no, no, okay, yeah, right,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: because I trying to force myself to bust my brain
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: to try to remember that. But yeah, I notice nowadays,
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: like uh, a lot of rappers, especially now with the
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: way like melody infused music has like kind of taken over,
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: Like a lot of artists. They will just go into
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: the boots and then they're like they'll lay down like
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: the melody like and then to it and then they'll
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: just punch in line by line. It's like that's like
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: when somebody needs a ghost writer. You you you let
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: me hear the beat and you tell me like you
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: mumble to it. This is the type of flow flow
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: because now you need the word no, I've seen it.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: It's it's actually a reference. It's it's like, yo, they'll
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: lay that down and then they'll sit there and smoke
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: and listen and then they'll go in and just punching. No.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: But it's but that's it. But it's it's it's still creative.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: It's still creative. It's just not I feel like it's
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: harder to be able to say what you want to
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: say and get your point across without thinking about it
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: too much because Bobby ram and multiple words meaning multiple
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: things at the same time, with metaphors, punch lines, and
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: it's just it's just, you know, I'm a fan of that.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: That's know what I'm saying. When we're talking about Harlem,
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: who do you have as your top five? Harlem? Mcs
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: ever ever ever on Big l Mace Cam, not me yourself? Damn,
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: I thought it was more than three from I think
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: Davis is making his way into that kind of is
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: a young legend, that's my But he's still catalog though. Man,
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: he's still young. He's got a lot of catalog. Yeah,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: Davis is my god. David's Yeah, Dave's is definitely. He's
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: definitely up there. But as far as my top five,
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: I would say, Big ol Cam Mace, do you got
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: who else? Out of respect? You put asab Rocky in
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: there just because of the wave that he created. As
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: far as maybe not lyrically, he's not literally there. Asad
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Rocky is nice though now he's under a different type
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: of rapper. He's a little bit more creative when it
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: comes to like putting together rhyms and songs and it's
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: dope still, but it's not that type of rap, the
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: big pun that type of rap that I was influenced by, Like,
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, but ain't really like he might not even
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: know who. Of course, come on man, okay, Bodega Bams
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: is fire. He I don't know that's got in that conversation,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: but he's that's my guy. He does. He's definitely deserves
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: my ship, you know what, I deserve a shot because
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: he's nice. He definitely from Harlem or not. We're not
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: thinking of somebody bro. Yeah, g depth, but he just
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: wasn't a wasn't even am child of the ghetto. Oh
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: that ship was so fire. It was so good. I
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: mean I think at that one album crazy yeah yeah yeah,
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: but he's like he did catch your body, they find himself,
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: you know what's crazy. I was like in Poughkeepsie performance
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: turned himself in. Yeah, before he turned himself in. I
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: was in Poughkeepsie performing and and then I'm on stage
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: rapping and I see somebody get on stage with like
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: a big colorful bubble coat, and I'm like, I ain't
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: coming nobody. I could see it from from the side
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: of my eyes. So I look as g Debt and
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: he's just like going crazy. But he looked a little
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: like off. So I'm like, you know, I talked to
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: him afterwards, we spoke. He was there. Yeah, I'm just
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: trying to remember a clear but shouts to him. He
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: was just that was before he turned himself in, so
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: I knew it was something a little bit, a little
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: bit off for shots to him. He's still a hallm legend. Yeah, Mace,
• 35:06

  Speaker 1: talk about like overall, you're saying crazy run Man, Crazy Run.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: Double Double Up was a little disappointing, but you know,
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: he was trying to get out that contract. That's how
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: I looked at it. He was trying to get away
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: from There was some there was like two records on
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: Double Up. But I remember buying Double Up and I
• 35:30

  Speaker 1: he was trying. He tried to he dropped double up
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: to get out his contract with Puff. That's what he's
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: trying to do. And he was like pretty much he
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: said it like he was kind of forced to put
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: that guy put together that album whatever. When you were
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: a kid, was like when him and Cam and Big
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: L was that like movement known in Harlem, like it
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: was Children of the Corn, right, Yeah, but that was
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: like I was too young for that. Yeah. Yeah, I
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: mean once I got older, I doubled back and listened,
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: But I was too young for that. People don't even

  Speaker 1: Mace was a real thing. Yo. It was so crazy
• 36:21
