  Speaker 5: performed in Brooklyn and it was I believe it was
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: but Wick and everybody was there to see me.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: That's it. And I was finally like, yo, you know what,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna come back outside.
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: I was finally because you know, like again like we're
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: doing records though like that, I think you had a
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: hit a years ago with that for real joint. I'm

  Speaker 5: I got a record with me and Capone first time
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: getting back in the studios with Doctor Dre Beat.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: So I've been holding that, but I ain't gonna lie.
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: I've have been scared and that that that show in
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: Brooklyn really like, because again, when you're doing shows and
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: there's other people that's on that bill, they're not primarily
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: there for you.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: There they're committing you, you know.
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: But I looked and I looked in the crowd, and
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry because you know, I make a lot of
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: gangs the music, or I made against the music.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: When I seen the girls, I seen females like singing along,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: and I was like, I missed this.
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: I was.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: I was like, yo, I missed this, and the police
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: and then.
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: I got on stage and and I said, yo, I'm
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: getting off stage and I'm gonna walk through the crowd.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: And the police from the Mayor's office came to me
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: and was like, you cannot do that. I don't know
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: who you think you are, sir, but you can't walk
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: through the and so we we we. I went in
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: the car and I'm the whole ride home, I was
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: just like, yo, all right, I needed to feel this love.
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: Sometimes you don't know you have the love until you
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: see it, you know what I'm saying, Like, so yeah,
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: i think I'm coming back outside.
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: Hold him to it because he always says this and hesitate.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: Tell you something.
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: Let me tell you something. If you came out in
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: the nineties and you okay, it's we are scared because
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: this is a different eraror like let's just be clear,
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: like if it wasn't for that four four four album,
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: like this is this is like a different error. Like
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: I don't know how to cater to these youth. You
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: know what I'm saying, Like you know what I mean? Yes, yes,
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: what he's doing with massive pill but hit boy, Yeah,
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: but I ain't gonna lie. I was just sitting down
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: and somebody was talking to me and I just kept
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: it real. It was like, so why happen you drop music?
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: And I was just like, I'm scared. I wanted to
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: be honest with myself because it's like, just think about it.
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: If you get a certain quota, right, you get a
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: certain amount of money that you get for every show
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: you get. If you drop a dud album or you
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: drop something that doesn't work, that quote goes down, right.
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: So like if you look at.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Fab, you look at me, you look at.
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: I'm not saying Fab scared to drop music because I'm
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: saying b but I'm just putting fat in my category.
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: But we have a certain amount. We get certain like
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: fabtalls all all the time. So the thing about it
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: is when you got people like us, we I believe
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: I don't want to put anybody else in that category,
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: but yeah, if you if you can't relate to this generation.
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: But then, like I said, like yeah.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: But you don't necessarily have to relate to generation.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: So you learned that.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Now when I'm on the road and i'm doing shows,
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: I'm not doing the new generation.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: I'm doing people thirty plus, forty plus, fifty plus that just.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: Want to party, They just want to have a good time,
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: they just want to feel, just want to come outside.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Don't forget about us.
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: Of them that show in Brooklyn, I looked and like
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: I said, I looked in everybody pause and everyone's mouth
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: and everyone knew my words. And these records are twenty
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: five years like and they still homeboy, they still what
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: what condo? And I'm sitting back and I'm like, you
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: know what, this is my problem. The problem was I
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: was going to try to cater to the y ns.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: No, Like I didn't. I don't know why.
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: But when I seen that, sometimes you just got to
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: see it. And when I saw that, I was like,
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: holy moly, guacamole. This is where I belong. Stick to
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: your stick to your crowd. And you know, they grew
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: up with me, like they grew up with me, like
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: you know what I mean. Like I was used to
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: having shows and people fighting. If you ain't fight at
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: my show, I thought my show was whack. I'm looking
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: at the crowd now, I'm like, man, everybody needs is bad.
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: They grew with me, and I should grow with them,
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. I'm saying, so yeah, I
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: would love to do it with nas you know, me
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: and nas Is is very cool. The last time I
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: see Naves, he was.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Like, I'm not inviting you to another party if you
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: don't wear a suit. And I was like, damn. I
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: was like, I gotta grow.
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: I'm thinking I'm a y n too, like so yeah,
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: but it's it's it's great man. It's great to grow
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: with your audience and to realize that. So I finally
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: I have finally uh seen that. Yeah, and I embracing that,
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. So yeah, So I think
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna come outside. I got and I got great records, man,
• 9:19

• 10:07
  Speaker 5: be saying, how all these rappers have podcasts now? Like
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: nobody's trying to sell music, you know what I mean?
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: And I think there's only a couple of people that
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: can do it. I think you can do it, and
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: I think Joe can do it because y'all, y'all been
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: around long enough to half hit podcast. Yes, where people
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: trust y'all, but they would buy some type of music
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: did y'all put up?
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: Yes, I don't think you don't have enough tenure in
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: the podcast.
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, you know it's crazy. Years ago I
• 10:34

• 10:37
  Speaker 5: Like you remember that.
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: I was like, Yo, Ray, and we were playing your
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: songs at the beginning of the podcast.

  Speaker 5: That's when I thought I was I was getting a
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: little bit above my bridges because we were doing so much.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: And then I I played I played the record and
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: I was like, Yo, let me.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: Call sound Exchange, because if we did three million on
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: this episode, that means they owe me, they owe me,
• 10:59

  Speaker 5: so he like like just just imagine that, like right
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: now is direct to consumer, right, Like I mean it
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: can be direct to consumer. Imagine you dropped yea your
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: album and but it's on your podcast like that, Like
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: like that's crazy.
• 11:21

  Speaker 2: But it's changing though, it's changing now.
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: Like I said, I believe, and I keep crediting for
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: four four. I credit for four four because that was
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: the first album where I felt like I was that age.
• 13:40

• 14:31
  Speaker 10: or whatever, because you still want to appeal to like

• 14:54
  Speaker 5: and he picked me up and I was like, that's that.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: That's another thing. He's like.
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: Sometimes when you're a fan of somebody, you don't automatically
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: expect them to be like you know what I'm saying,
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: Like I have that same amount of love for you,
• 15:07

• 15:20
  Speaker 1: of West Coast dudes. I don't.
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: I don't know their name, but uh, I watched I
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: watched interviews and that you know when I came out.
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: This is the reason why we don't interview new guys.
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: I hate the one word answers. You know when you said,
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: you said, your man, So what have you been been
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: involved with the guy? Like yeah, I'm cooling, Like no,
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: we don't want you want to drink Champs cold somewhere else.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Like, but they don't have a story yet. That's the
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: beauty and drink. We all have a story. You have
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: no journey. You have to sell it, you know what
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: That's that's why, Like if you ever look at boxers,
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: like they always paint a better picture of box boxes
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: is not the most articulate people, but you know you
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: have to tell that story.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: So uh yeah, so I want to. I want to.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: I want to get back into this and I want to. Yeah.
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: I like the conversation about catering to the youth because
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: I tell folks, if you cater to the youth, you
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: change every three years.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Wow and literally like every three years you'll be doing
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: something new.
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: So why not just stick to you and who you
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: are and just growing involved as a person and give people.
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: Who you are in that moment, right you know, yeah,
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: it doesn't mean you won't get a youthful audience as
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: long you're authentic.
• 16:34
  Speaker 9: I think y'all weave stuff in and out, like not
• 16:35
  Speaker 9: super new, but like I remember well the Kodak Black episode.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: You know, wait, wait what you said. I think y'all
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: do a.
• 16:43
  Speaker 9: Good job of the people who people want to hear from.
• 16:45
  Speaker 9: To a certain extent, y'all try to bring them on
• 16:47
  Speaker 9: to have conversations, but it don't always good.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: I love Kodak Black. Let me just tell you something.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: He is a real one.
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: Like when I tell you he showed up early and
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: stay the latest, like and I'm looking like because you know,
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: you know, he's he's about that life. He's he's outside
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: like he's a good one. But I see him like
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: a lot and he does a lot for the hood
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: that I that I see that I hear about.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he does a lot. He's he's actually he's actually
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: what you're about.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: To don Okay, we got to give him the cups.
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: You're gonna drink something drink.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: But yeah, okay, I know what. I don't know if you.
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: Know, I just I just like that, thank you for
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: bringing that up. Because that he's he is considered a
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: new generation. And but I relate to him like he's
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: a person I relate to like you know what I'm saying,
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: uh and his hood. Yes this is all y'all FN's idea. Yes, yes,
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: but but yeah, I relate to Kodak. I feel like
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: I feel like he's very very necessary. And again, Kodak
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: has the best story I've ever like like we went
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: out to eat and Kodak brong his own food to
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: the to the spot and like I just I can't
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: get over that, Like it was like this my mama food,
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: she cooked better than this. I was all right, but like, yeah,
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: so that's that's a that's a person I relate to.
• 18:21
  Speaker 9: Do you feel like because I know people were on
• 18:22
  Speaker 9: y'all because they felt like YA should have edited some.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Of that interviews. And then did you see all the
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: interviews that he did after that?
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so I I let me be honest with you.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: We didn't edit period. That was our thing. That was
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: our thing. And then Kanye told us a very valuable lesson.
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: The second episode. The first episode was so beautiful, the
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: second one was not so much, and we learned to
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: edit from there. We were like, wait a minute, because
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: we knew there were certain things, but he literally asked
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: us to film Sunday night. No, no Sunday, no Saturday morning,
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: Saturday morning, and drop it Sunday. So we were competing
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: with the super Bowl. Yes, so we were competing with
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: super Bowl. We were actually beating the super Bowl in numbers.
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: Wasn't the super Bowl, it was something It was football
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: because I remember two month from YouTube calling me and
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: was like, yo, you guys are.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: What is that called? Like when when the people stay
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: for the long attention?
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: We was beating in that and then we was beating
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: in the numbers and then but I didn't I'm saying
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: for myself, and you can speak for yourself as well.
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: But I didn't pay attention to the rhetoric what Kanye
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: was saying, and when it came out, that's why I
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: was apologized.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: That's why you know I did go on apology to
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: all like I did.
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: Was like because even though I didn't say that, I
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: understand that I have a responsibility now, like you know
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: what I'm saying. Like like I like, like if someone
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: comes along with my show right now and they say, man,
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: forget yes and then forget envy, I.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Know the same because if I laugh, they think I'm
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: co signing it. What if it's funny. I don't know
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: how much I have to edit myself now. Like now,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: I'm like, you know, you.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Gotta edit that because that happens.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no, no envy somebody.
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: I got it.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: I got it, I got I got a personal relationship
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: with you. If I let Clue, I'm just giving. I'm
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: just kidding. I'm just I'm just saying because the first
• 20:32

• 20:34
  Speaker 1: it be like, yo, you're really doing shots. I'm in okay.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: I thought I was okay, but I let Clue go
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: on and be like mess Envy, you know, en Vy.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: I have to go like this mm hmm. And I
• 20:47

• 21:25
  Speaker 1: That it was the Jewish part like when he like
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: and and and I was like, I was like, oh
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: because I didn't know what I didn't know at the time,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: and the George Floyd part to George Floyd Park.
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: Listen, I regret leaving the Jewish part, and I regret
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: leaving the George for Floyd Park because one.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: I'm black man, I saw that.
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: I saw that video, Like I was hurt like everyone else,
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: and like to this day, like like like I'm like
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: still have like a little bit of smoke because of
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: that because it's like yo.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: But I but but I said I'm sorry.
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: So as a man, when you say you sorry, like
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: like I felt like I should have been forgiven. Like
• 22:06
  Speaker 5: and it's one person in this world that I don't
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: think he forgives me, you know what I'm saying.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: And I got, I got, you know what.
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: I came to the realization, I'm gonna respect it. Like
• 22:14
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna just stay in my zone.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: You apologize, you know, he doesn't have to accept it.
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: But he did accept it. That's what that's the part
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: that's kind of messed up were talking about.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: You know, just watch I'm embarrassed by this. I mean,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: I'm too grown like and when I when.
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: I seen the back and forth that I did on
• 22:34
  Speaker 5: my behalf, I'm I'm I'm embarrassing, you.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Know, just say so.
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: I'm talking about that because because you know, I let
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: the Internet gas me.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: I did. The Internet came to me was like, why
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: he ain't had that same smoke for that white man
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: that he had for you? And it's the truth.
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: So it was just like I was like, all right, cool,
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: and I did let the Internet gas me. But a
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: super a super regret a super I'm bad. I know better, bro,
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: Like you know what I'm saying, Like, so if it's
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: if it's if it's still smoke, that's up to you, man,
• 23:09
  Speaker 5: Like you know what I'm saying, Like, because I did
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: say I'm.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: Sorry, and I am sorry.
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: I'm not taking this back. So I thought that, like
• 23:17
  Speaker 5: he must have had this phone call on tape. So
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: I'm thinking that that's what it was, but it probably isn't.
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: And and maybe he forgot. Maybe you know, he smokes
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: a lot, he says, he says, I drink a lot.
• 23:28
  Speaker 5: He smokes a lot.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Maybe he doesn't remember that I actually said I'm sorry,
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Like no, you said you said it through text. No, no,
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: that's not the truth. I got on the phone. I
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: got on the phone.
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: I got on the phone with you, I got on
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: the phone with y'all. I was on the phone with everybody.
• 23:41
  Speaker 5: Because this is how I felt. I'm not taking back
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: how I feel. I was sorry, like like if I'm sorry,
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: like when MB said I try to charge him, I
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: always say I'm sorry for you.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: I always feel like I never.
• 23:53
  Speaker 5: Took back my apology. I always like an MBYO my bad.
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: I was probably feeling myself at this time, like and
• 23:59
  Speaker 5: it on you to forgive me. You did forgive me.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: We we have we have history, we speak, we talk,
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: and it's different, I mean, and I know it comes
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: from a good place like he and You've always had
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: a great relationship where you want to see each other prosper.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: So it's a different part. But if somebody doesn't, it's
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: you know.
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I do want to see you and Stephen work
• 24:17
  Speaker 5: that I do. I do, y'all both for good brothers,

  Speaker 5: you know what, I'm gonna be the bigger person, like
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: I don't want to. And I don't know if this
• 24:32
  Speaker 5: is called an olive branch or whatever, but what I'm
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: saying is I said sorry. If you didn't remember that,
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: I said sorry, And if you thought I said it
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: through texting you, you might be smoking because I wanted
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: him to hear my voice and I wouldn't like I
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: remember you even telling me like yo, you you didn't
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: say that else?
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Yay who said that?
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: But I was I still felt obligated to go because
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: I'm black, Like I think this what happened, this, this was,
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: this was and for me letting that on my platform,
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: and that has changed how I moved forward, Like how
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: we move forward now. It's like, all right, cool, I
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: know that Charlomagne could come on my show and say
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: forget Jess, and Jess can be mad at me. She
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: could be like yo, no no no no no no
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: no no. To a certain extent, she can be mad
• 25:24
  Speaker 5: at me. She can say, yo, you knew he was
• 25:26
  Speaker 5: gonna come up there with that, you knew he was
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: going to swing that type of energy, and you would
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: allow that to happen.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: So to a certain extent.
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I want to be more responsible and that has
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: has changed us both, and it has changed us both.
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: I want to be so when I'm engaging and I
• 25:42
  Speaker 5: did this, and I did what I did the other day,
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: like I was embarrassed, like not no one had to
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: come and tell me, Like I looked at myself in
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: the mirror and.

  Speaker 1: I was like why like like like why like you
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: know better?
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: Like and you know it is could lead to like
• 25:59

• 26:02
  Speaker 5: I would rather, I would rather, I would rather to
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: take the high role.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: At this point, like, and I know that's that's Some
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: people might be.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: Like, oh man, that's growth and that's evolution.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Some people might. But I don't. I can't do this
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: like I can't. I can't, like I don't need to.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: But but that's good.

• 26:53
  Speaker 3: Right if you look out for somebody, and really look
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: out for somebody, no matter thick and thin, and when
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: they you know, when you were on the floor, they
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: step on your neck, you just remember it.

  Speaker 2: You just remember because when it always comes back around,
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: and when it does come back.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Around, you just remember it. That's all.

  Speaker 6: over the top and it was just so raw.
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: Like I feel like I.
• 27:33
  Speaker 6: Always say, we can make a documentary of the making

• 27:46
  Speaker 6: was just a crazy episode.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: Put it like this. Put it like this.

  Speaker 5: ninety nine want to do an interview with you.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: He goes, I'm gonna do fucking interviews and he hangs
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: up and I'm like, what the hell am I saying?
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: What?
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: I'm here for this?
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: So I said, so I made sure not to word
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: it as an interview. I was like, yo, I got
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: a podcast, and he was like a podcast, well like jail.
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: I was like no, I'm like no, He's like, all right, cool.
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: I was like, but it's just gonna be us talking.
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: So we went upstairs. I don't know if you remember
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: that part. Remember he set up upstairs and we set
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: up like in his room, like, and X didn't want
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: to go upstairs, so we got to take the whole
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: thing down and we got to bring him back downstairs.
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: Now X is X like you can't change him, you know,
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: God bless him. And so we literally did the show
• 28:58
  Speaker 5: in the middle of the lie be on a pool
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: on a pool table in the hotel and X is
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: still like, so he's so hot at the time. The
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: people don't even want to tell us you can't smoke, like.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: He's smoking cigarettes, he's drinking a hotel lobby.
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: We didn't ask the forermissioned the lobby music they had
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: and they actually comply.
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: So I don't want to pick up that hotel because
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: they might have got fired. But it was that was
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: that was, that was from that moment. Well, Joe, Joe knew.
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: And when I say Joe, I'm talking about Fat Joe
• 29:32
  Speaker 5: because there's a lot of other Joe's out there. Fat
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: Joe knew from the time that he sat down with us.
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: Because our first guest was n was Kenny first recorded guest.
• 29:43
  Speaker 5: It didn't come out. I mean it didn't, It didn't

• 32:16
  Speaker 5: not playing around because it's the truth, you know what
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: I'm saying. Like when I see them, when I see
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: you know, Jim Jones, When I see Cam and Mace,
• 32:26
  Speaker 5: the evolution, the fact that they squashed it and then
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: they can't, And I was this is real talk. I
• 32:32
  Speaker 5: was with Cam for like a week straight, like just
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: trying to like I knew, I knew he had the personality.
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: I knew he had the person that I knew. Cam
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: and Trick Daddy, it's probably the illest personalities in hippodty
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: and and I'm and I might be putting that and
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: me and Joe, you know what I'm saying, like, but
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: that's who I saw. I saw Fab, I saw I saw,
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: Excuse me, I saw Cam, and I knew he was
• 32:59
  Speaker 5: gonna do and Cam basically was like he took my advice,
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: but he did it his way, which is the way
• 33:05
  Speaker 5: he's supposed to do it, and he went and did sports.
• 33:07
  Speaker 5: And look every day I'm seeing them on first take now,
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: like I love it, Like you know what I'm saying. Like, so,
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: the fact that we controlling media, the fact that I
• 33:18
  Speaker 5: can go wake up in the morning and I could
• 33:20
  Speaker 5: listen to Cam.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: Instead of first Take, or listen to Cam and first
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: take like I listened to my own people. He talks
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: my language.
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: The fact that I could look at you know, Joe
• 33:31
  Speaker 5: and Jada and like what they're doing and they're interviewing
• 33:35
  Speaker 5: you know, you know, everybody, and.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: Like that to me is like I feel like I'm home.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: Like I feel like I'm home when I say.
• 33:43
  Speaker 9: I was going to say, what you're doing with black
• 33:45
  Speaker 9: effect with your own That's why Drink Champs network is
• 33:49
  Speaker 9: dope because even what you bleaks, podcasts and a lot
• 33:52
  Speaker 9: of the other things that have happened, you're just creating
• 33:53
  Speaker 9: more of it.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: I don't want to beek. They have no guests though, Joe,
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: you know what he told me, You told him that
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: and I agree.
• 34:02
  Speaker 6: I told him that too.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: I agree. I told him I need him to get
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: hein like painting the ass to be as cold that.

• 34:39
  Speaker 5: the phone with him, like yo, and this is this
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: is gonna sound real crazy, but let me let me,
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: let me make it make sense. Like if I had
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: a chance to sign jay Z or Bleak, I would
• 34:48
  Speaker 5: sign Bleak because I know Jay ain't gonna talk like that.
• 34:51
  Speaker 5: If I had the chance to sign fifty or ya Yo,
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: I would sign ya Yo because ya Yo is Yayo

  Speaker 5: is like listen, fifty would be good, but he's gonna
• 35:01
  Speaker 5: do it once like you know what I'm saying, but

  Speaker 5: wonderful person and he's funny. My favorite argument on drinking
• 35:36
  Speaker 5: chapter is ya Yo and yeah Fin, it's probably the
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: quietest I've ever been because he he's from the West Coast.
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: A lot of people don't know that he's originally from
• 35:47
  Speaker 5: l A and he loves ice Cube and.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, you got to that. We got to mention that.
• 35:55
  Speaker 5: And ya Yo was arguing about Biggie and I swear god,
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: the passion that they both had, and I just stood
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: there and I was just like, I fell back. I
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: was like I didn't want to stop it. I was
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: just like, you just let him keep the debate exactly.
• 36:10
  Speaker 6: It was, well, he asked me who's my top five
• 36:13
  Speaker 6: and I said Cube at the top, and then he
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: just didn't like that answer and he was like Biggie, Biggie,
• 36:17
  Speaker 6: and it just it was out of hand because we're
• 36:19
  Speaker 6: already late in the episode. We were drunk, and it
• 36:21
  Speaker 6: was just a debate between ice Cube and Biggie.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: That's what it was.
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: This is my favorite, and I just said, Biggie didn't
• 36:25
  Speaker 6: get out to he didn't get to live his life
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: to the career that that I ended up having. You know.

• 38:01
  Speaker 5: he had flu to the Dominican Republic. I felt like
• 38:03
  Speaker 5: I flew the Dominical Republic to see Joe because the
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: one thing about it is he pays attention to his haters.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: He does, like.
• 38:13
  Speaker 5: A lot of times I can't, yeah, because I'm just like,
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: all right, cool, Why why I'm gonna pay attention to Jeffrey?
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like why Like, but then
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: it's hard.
• 38:24
  Speaker 5: It's hard, like it's hard for somebody to tell you
• 38:28
  Speaker 5: forget you or f you, and you know, like you
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: can do something to this person.
• 38:32

• 38:34
  Speaker 5: Earlier, it's like, yo, we got to grow up, man, Like,
• 38:37
  Speaker 5: like you know the other day, like, you know, I

• 38:54
  Speaker 5: being a loyal man, Like I don't know how to do.
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: It, like you know what I'm saying, like that's not
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: even fly. But and.
• 39:01
  Speaker 5: I said, you know, sorry, I'm changing the subject, but
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: I'm still on the subject. And I said, I said,
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: you know what's crazy. I never seen my father flirt

  Speaker 5: said this with nature the other day, you know what
• 43:31
  Speaker 5: I mean. At one point, Uh, being on a clue
• 43:39
  Speaker 5: tape was better than being on the radio.
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: So like like uh clue envy. They used to come
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: and get me. It used to be like you, Norrie,
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: and we used to be used to ice to rhyme.
• 44:01
  Speaker 5: And this helped my career. Like I didn't want to
• 44:04
  Speaker 5: be on unsigned hype. I mean I got to be
• 44:07
  Speaker 5: onside hype, but this was I.
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: Do big you up.
• 44:12
  Speaker 5: It's just I don't pick up in your face. That's better, right,
• 44:16
  Speaker 5: you talk behind the back, but the person is back good.
• 44:19
  Speaker 5: So yeah, So like yeah, man like ship, why do
• 44:24
  Speaker 5: you think he does get lost in those conversations because
• 44:26
  Speaker 5: he's winning now. Most people, most people who you big
• 44:30
  Speaker 5: up back then there that I don't want to say
• 44:33
  Speaker 5: it like that, but they have lost to a certain extent.
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: So now it's easier to big up somebody that's that's
• 44:39
  Speaker 5: that's not doing it no more. Most people that he's
• 44:43
  Speaker 5: still going on. Bro like y'all on Netflix, Bro, like
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: this is congratulations.
• 44:47
  Speaker 10: I'm not for y'all now, rock boy the Netflix Live.
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: Let me just say you got something.
• 45:00
  Speaker 5: You're doing an amazing job, like you know, you know
• 45:03
  Speaker 5: Angela leaving, I've been thinking, y'all, y'all yeah, with no skip,
• 45:09
  Speaker 5: y'all just stayed up there and uh and if if
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: I didn't come up here to do the breakfast club
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: this ten years might not not You forget about.
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: Used to come up here every Easter, every Easter.
• 45:27
  Speaker 6: Let me say something to bring a full circle with
• 45:29
  Speaker 6: the mixtape thing, because it made me think about it.
• 45:31
  Speaker 6: How you say how that changed you? The mixtape We
• 45:34
  Speaker 6: met because I was the mixtape DJ in Miami and
• 45:36
  Speaker 6: that's how we connected. So the fact that you helped
• 45:39
  Speaker 6: him in his career and then and then long story
• 45:41
  Speaker 6: with us. So what we do drink chance is crazy.
• 45:46
  Speaker 9: Don't you think v need to talk more about that era?
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand him too. I understand him too because
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: he's a virgo and he's gonna go too far.
• 45:56
  Speaker 9: But keeping it like just what I always tell Envy
• 45:59
  Speaker 9: is I like that era. There were so many artists
• 46:02
  Speaker 9: that will say what you just said, major artists, right,
• 46:04
  Speaker 9: But he doesn't talk about it a lot, and I
• 46:06
  Speaker 9: think that it should be talked about, and so much
• 46:09
  Speaker 9: history and like the founding things of hip hop, and
• 46:12
  Speaker 9: I think that MV should be in a certain conversation.
• 46:15
  Speaker 5: You know what, I hear vay more. I said, Mvy,
• 46:18
  Speaker 5: big up clue more. But I hear that person always
• 46:22
  Speaker 5: respect the clause and I love that.
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: I love that.
• 46:25
  Speaker 5: But his his my time giving respectem fasters I got,
• 46:30
  Speaker 5: I got a bunch of your tastes.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: But you know what too, it was it was a
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: time where money didn't matter.
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: Ory was doing freestyle. Yes, my mama basements. We didn't
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: have no money.
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: Miami freestyle.
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: Blue caravan, blue caravan with no seats in it. Everybody
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: jumped in. There was no seat belts. We just rolled.
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: We went to the city.
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: Like, didn't that I had a conn this event, that's
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: why we could afford back then. But it was it
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: was a minivan with no seats, and we used to
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: just move around. But it was a time where you
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: loved it, like when Nori I remember and Nor getting
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: signed and Nor doing this and no traveling.
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: And this, and you know, even with Royal flush. It's
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: like we just loved that time. It had nothing to
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: do with money. Money didn't matter.
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: When you were standing at the bus.
• 47:11
  Speaker 11: Stop, you said the nice car and that made you
• 47:18
  Speaker 11: be like, shoot you with the car and the chain.
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: And I'm gonna say this one last time.
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: I knew er Nesto. Me and nest used to ride
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: bikes and play basketball. Nestle used to live across the train.
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: One day, I was waiting at the bus stop. It
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: was cold, it was snow on the ground. Nice pulled
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: up in the three series B m W and back
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: then you were rich.
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: If you had that. I asked him how he got it.
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: He asked him because he drives.
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: I asked my friend, how he got it. He said, YO,
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: come to my house after school. I thought he was
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: selling drugs to his house after school.
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: His mom drugs.
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: I went downstairs, and I've seen records and all types
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: of tape players and this, that and the ever.
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: I asked what he did. He said he was a
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: d J. I asked his name. He said Clue.
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: Back then nobody knew what Clue was. Nobody knew his face.
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: And from there I was like, so you make money
• 48:14
  Speaker 3: by doing something that you love music? He said yes,
• 48:18
  Speaker 3: who time, I had no idea because he never told
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: anybody because not that once I when he had the
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: question mark, so I had no idea. And then after
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: that I was like, this is what I want to do,
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: and he said, I will get these turntables and go
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: ahead and keep going to.
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: Like us this crazy, but I do want to give
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: you a like like like if it wasn't for you
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: and Clue, you know what I mean?
• 48:55
  Speaker 5: Like, uh, Like I got further along because one Clue
• 49:01
  Speaker 5: became like like the big guy Paul, and then Envy
• 49:06
  Speaker 5: was the streets like for lack of a better term,
• 49:09
  Speaker 5: like he was the street streets like so if he
• 49:11
  Speaker 5: was on the Envy tape that it really meant something
• 49:13
  Speaker 5: like it really meant, And I was on all of them,
• 49:17
  Speaker 5: I think for at one point like, yeah, we don't.
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: Tell that story, why we don't make an audio documentary,
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: or maybe it should start with Clue. He was we
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: should do it doc I think both of y'all his own.
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: But the reason I was able to get distribution is
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: because Clue got so big. We helped them with his distribution.
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: So we started to duplicate his tapes his CD players,
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: which allowed me to use.
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: It when he was off.
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: So it was kind of like you know, you hear
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: all the time where they'd be like Nike runs a
• 49:44
  Speaker 3: factory from eight to five and the five to eighties
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: the blue leggs. So when he finished, I would just
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: run his machines for free, and and that way that
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: and that's how we just kept going and I would
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: know where his stores were, and we just followed the
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: Clue blueprint.
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: But we should do that, Clue, that's a great idea.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: That's a great Do you know how many time me
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: Annoyed been in interviews to say we should do something and.
• 50:01
  Speaker 9: We say, actually, so because I've been I've been telling
• 50:05
  Speaker 9: him that for a long time, and not because I think,
• 50:07
  Speaker 9: like I think he's the type of person he don't
• 50:10
  Speaker 9: want to do it, like say it himself, but I
• 50:12
  Speaker 9: just think that there's a lot to learn and that's
• 50:14
  Speaker 9: where he shines at because it's real, like it actually
• 50:16
  Speaker 9: and when you go you I heard Juvenile talk about
• 50:18
  Speaker 9: NB being one of the first to play his songs
• 50:19
  Speaker 9: in New York, and I was like, what, Like, how
• 50:22
  Speaker 9: do you not tell you you records?
• 50:25
  Speaker 10: No, I'm just saying he also clips and all of them,
• 50:29
  Speaker 10: like they always say the records, but.
• 50:35
  Speaker 6: But you don't don't talk about it.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: But don't you think that Maybe it's just me.
• 50:40
  Speaker 5: I feel like that as big as New York was
• 50:42
  Speaker 5: for the mixtape scene, I feel like they can't that.
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: Story don't get told. Like I feel like the.
• 50:47
  Speaker 6: Dramas and everybody all that and we're all inspired by
• 50:52
  Speaker 6: what happened in New York. We wanted to do that dramas.
• 50:55
  Speaker 6: Me there's guys on the West Coast like it's but
• 50:57
  Speaker 6: it all started here in New York.
• 50:59
  Speaker 5: And it's because colude don't tell the story because in
• 51:01
  Speaker 5: order to cool, telling story, and that's telling the envy
• 51:02
  Speaker 5: story that everybody's story is and it's twined to me.
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: But I also feel that the main reason I feel
• 51:08
  Speaker 3: no disrespect to New York rappers but New York. New
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: York rappers don't fuck with each other. So like if
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: you look at Drama, Drama still fucks with the people
• 51:14
  Speaker 3: that he helped, but he's still fucks with you. He
• 51:16
  Speaker 3: still fucks with future, he still fucks with all those individuals.
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: But but but I can't if I call to get
• 51:22
  Speaker 3: hold on the phone, I got a call through this
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: person and this person to get this person right.
• 51:26
  Speaker 2: And then most everybody don't really live in New York,
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: and no do they frequent.
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: So even with nor, of course I can get an
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: ormy on the phone, but given everybody else is just
• 51:32
  Speaker 3: too difficult.
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: The documentary, documentary or your conversation.
• 51:36
  Speaker 5: No not listen, let me let me not let you
• 51:39
  Speaker 5: downplay yourself. No, I can't let you do you could
• 51:42
  Speaker 5: make this happen. No no, no, no no no, because
• 51:45
  Speaker 5: you you know me and you Vally we deal with
• 51:48
  Speaker 5: the saying because like we were goos and we like
• 51:50
  Speaker 5: we would like to downplay a situation before we up
• 51:54
  Speaker 5: uplay it.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: But let me just tell you something.
• 51:57
  Speaker 5: If you was the call for a whole right now,
• 52:00
  Speaker 5: for that documentary, I can almost guarantee you you're going
• 52:03
  Speaker 5: to get that.
• 52:03
  Speaker 3: Even the Empire strikes back the way. The only reason
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: I did it with Dame and j was because Clue
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: didn't want to do it. Because Clue was like, I
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: can't let you'all go a kiss because I play kissing
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: them on the radio. I didn't have no relationship with
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: kissing him back then. All I had my relationship was
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: I used to go to Rockefeller every day and beg
• 52:20
  Speaker 3: for records Bobby Dash g Lennys, and they knew my
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: face and it was like, let Vy do it.
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: And that's how that came about.
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: And Beanie Siegel could go at kiss because I didn't
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: have no relationship because but Clue was like that. But
• 52:30
  Speaker 3: that's how my relationship with oving them came. And even
• 52:32
  Speaker 3: when I did my album, I was like, I cannot
• 52:34
  Speaker 3: do it. I cannot finish this album without a whole record.
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: And he flew in did it pay him thirty thousand
• 52:39
  Speaker 3: dollars consecutive bills in a Nike shoe box and that's yeah.
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Let me just say you something that Era is golden,
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: Its golden, golden.
• 52:49
  Speaker 5: And especially I love the fact that it's the mixtape
• 52:52
  Speaker 5: that we focusing on because people like people don't even
• 52:57
  Speaker 5: understand a mixtape was actually a mixed tape, mix tape
• 53:01
  Speaker 5: at one point, and and yeah, nah, you deserve your flowers.
• 53:06
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna be honest. I'm gonna be honest with you,
• 53:08
  Speaker 5: like I'm a I'm a product of the mixtapes. If
• 53:11
  Speaker 5: it wasn't for mixtapes, I wouldn't have got signed. And uh,
• 53:16
  Speaker 5: if it wasn't like it was Clue and then Envy,
• 53:21
  Speaker 5: and then I would say case Lay a little bit later.
• 53:25
  Speaker 5: But these these these features meant so much and you
• 53:31
  Speaker 5: didn't have to have a feature, you know what I'm saying.
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: I was telling that the Nature the other day. I
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: was like, Yo, Nate Man, we were talking and I
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: was just like, man, like, I remember at one point.
• 53:40
  Speaker 5: You were hotter than nas Bro because of Clue, because
• 53:44
  Speaker 5: Nate would if you if you had that that first
• 53:49
  Speaker 5: record on that Clue tape, the world hated you. And
• 53:53
  Speaker 5: boy did is that truth I'm telling you. Like, if
• 53:59
  Speaker 5: you was on that first Clue tape for a song
• 54:03
  Speaker 5: you got signed, you probably made a million dollars. You
• 54:07
  Speaker 5: probably made like and then right after Clue, it was
• 54:11
  Speaker 5: Envy Boom like and you could tell that they put
• 54:14
  Speaker 5: each other each other on and once that it was over.
• 54:18
  Speaker 5: It was over, like it was literally like and then
• 54:22
  Speaker 5: like I met a person like e f N. E
• 54:25
  Speaker 5: f M was running in Miami. So uh, I would
• 54:29
  Speaker 5: just want to be on his tapes.
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, cool, just just book me on
• 54:33

  Speaker 5: Like I won't even give collar his props too, like
