  Speaker 1: like five hours after that. We had to make sure
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: you had a good night. Oh yeah, that was crazy.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I think that's the highest I've ever been outside of

  Speaker 1: eating too many edibles? Beautiful. Have you ever had a
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: really bad edible experience action? Uh? You know what, you
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: just kind of have to go with it. You just
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: have to go with the flow, go with the wave.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: A good friend of mine who's sitting over here and
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: on the couch has had some pretty interesting, uh edible situations.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: You know, it can get deep, see you pretty much
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: sit you sink into wherever you're at, sink into the abyss.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: You know, it's like it's like you drowned in your
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: own fluids. What about any have you ever had any
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: wild hallucinogenic experiences, whether it's mushrooms or any like d
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: MT or anything. Crazy? Yeah, plenty. Non's always there's always
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: a crazy situation. What's the craziest trip. There's been so
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: many crazy ones, but it's like the latest, the latest one.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: The latest one is always the craziest one is because
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: you remember it the most. These things are almost like
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: flashes in time where you remember bits and pieces, but
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: you cannot really explain it. You know what I'm saying.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: But there are there are points to where I can
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: explain what I'm trying to say, but not this one
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: because I'm looking at that Barkley poster in the back.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Oh you see that Charles Barkley poster. I got. Look,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: I got the I got in my room. Yo, man,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: I'm on from Phoenix. So we got and then I
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: got the old game in my room right there, the
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: Bang three sixteen with Vince on there. That's fire. Yeah,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: that's crazy. You had the Barkley poster. Were you a
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Barkley guy coming up? Like? Growing up, I was a
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: big I mean, I love Barkley. It was my favorite shoe.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: All those shoes were incredible. Yeah, he was a sick dude,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: he was. He was definitely one of my favorite players
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: growing up. There's no doubt he was no threat to
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the Knicks. Well, yeah, I guess when he played on
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: the sixers. Otherwise he was in the Western Conference and yeah, yeah.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: It's almost like you can acknowledge somebody who's on the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: other side of the conferences and be like, you know what,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: I fuck with that guy because I don't got to
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: worry about saying him in the Eastern Conference finals. It
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: was never a situation. Yeah, that's fair. Back to your
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: mushroom trips. Have you ever I just started to do mushrooms.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: I did mushrooms for the first time in February, and
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: it was like kind of therapeutic low key? Was that
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: something that like, do you do you find like therapeutic?
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Like do you find it to be therapeutic? Whenever you
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: do that shit? You have to eat more? Just keep
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: eating more. Well, how many did you eat? Did you
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: eat a little bit or a lot? I had a lot? Man,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I had like a half of a chocolate bar. Yeah,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: I don't know what that. I don't know what goes
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: into the chocolate bars. I what I suggest is you
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: grab a handful of mushrooms and stuff them in your
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: face and then if you could actually talk to me
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: in an hour, I would like to hear about it
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: after you come home. So just go all, just go
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: all the way in. Well, what's the fun and not
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: you know, you're gonna fucking have a little piece of
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: chocolate bar. Who even knows what you're doing. You might
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: have just taken fucking you know, who knows, they might
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: have pushed your taki mushrooms in there and you're fucking
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: eating shit takis and you're feeling funny. What what would
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: be the advice you'd give to anyone as far as
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: like your surroundings or where you need to be at
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: mentally before you take take the all those rooms to
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: the face, because it is a lot about who you're
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: around and where you're at. Unless you're so many factors,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: there's so many it's very situational situation. Yeah, it's like
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: you have to be fucking Bill Belichick to get it right.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: But for real, at the end of the day, you
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: have to you know, you'd like to be in nature.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: But there's been times where I have had some sickle
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: trips inside. You know, you lost, you know, there's been
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: times where hours have been lost, days have been lost.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Wake up, you have no idea what's going on? Every
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: time it's different. What I suggest is you just try
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: it all. Just try it, try it all, see what
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: works for you. Is there a drug that you've tried
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: that you would not suggest anyone try. Yeah, don't smoke dust.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Don't do angel dust. I don't know, would you? Is
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: that considered angel dust? I'm talking about when you dip
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: a cigarette or you dip a blunt into that fucking
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: liquid for meldehyde. Yeah, the ship dust dip. Yeah, Philly
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: rappers like that ship, Philly people. That's a big It
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: was a big deal over there. It's big in like
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Staten Island and the Bronx. Stay away from the dust town. Yeah, no,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: it's dust is no good. That was a bad experience
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: for you. Yeah, I remember I hit the dust and
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: I got the flu for fourteen days. Ship. Yeah, that's
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: it was like fucking fifteen years ago. But yeoh that's crazy.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah it was bad. Hey man, your new album UH
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: is called Only for Dolphins, which is a remarkable name
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: for a project. Thank you very much. I really think
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: that UH Latin Grammys is crazy. I love the video
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: because I know you've always give the strong man competition. Guy.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: You've always you've been talking about how you came up
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: watching those throughout the years, and yep, only for dolphins.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Why is it named only for the for the for dolphins?
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: And it makes me want to eat mushrooms while listening
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: to it, because I feel like that's what I feel like,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: that's how you listen to an album named only for dolphins.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: On White Bronco, I said on the song called Mount Etna, Yep,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: motherfuckers don't deserve me, you know what I mean? My
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: next album is only for dolphins because motherfuckers don't deserve me.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: And that's you know, that's I've kind of run with
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: that scene. Okay, this album is for the this album
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: is for the guardians of the ocean. That's that's fair. Straight.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: I've made enough for motherfuckers. Man, It's time to give,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: to give to the ones who really want to receive
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: you are. It's crazy how long you've been doing this
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: and how you're still in some some way. I don't know, man,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: I feel like somehow you're still kind of underrated when
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: it comes to like the conversations like these hip hop conversations,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: like do you feel like is that kind of why
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: you said that on the last album, Like motherfuckers don't
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: deserve me because I feel like you don't. You as
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: much as you're like known for your vice shit and
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: your cooking shit and all everything else, like you're still
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: like one of the hardest dudes on the mic, and
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: I feel like sometimes people people kind of overlook you
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: in that in that respect. Now, you know, I I
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: can only do what I do. You know, the show
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: did take over in a crazy way where people definitely
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: know me a lot from that, and you know, you
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: you want to be able to, you know, bring everything
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: together to a head. But like I said, I fucking
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: I've ushered in this the two and tens. You know,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: I've ushered that shit in and I'm here twenty twenty
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: still headlining shit. You know, motherfuck this is this is
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: like I'm trying to do Emmitt Smith career. You know,

• 12:32
  Speaker 1: You get hurt, bum knee, get cut, You don't have

• 12:43
  Speaker 1: cut you, someone picks you up both waivers. That's what
• 12:47

  Speaker 1: I feel like you kind of helped bring that back.
• 14:42

• 16:20
  Speaker 1: than I remember. It's like a slept on East. And
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: why that's the most slept on season because there's not
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: as much fucking you know, I don't know, like drug
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: dealing or something. Is it? The Wire takes you on
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: different angles, you know, it takes you into from the
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: fucking the news room, the school, you know, the fucking yeah,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: the pier, the docks, you know, the long shortman down there.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: It's not a fucking game. What do you think all
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: the crazy shit comes it comes from the ports? No.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: Season two was ah, I like rewatching it. I have
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: it either second or third place in my favorite Wire seasons.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: And when when I first watched it, I remember just
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: being so thrown off because if you watch the Tobacca
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: Rest in Peace, they did him dirty man, and you
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: see like ship like that is inspiring. So the end
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: of that season, a song called FJ FIJ is playing,
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: and so I rhymed on that back then. So it
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: was like, I've always been inspired by crazy beats, saying
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: ridiculous things as I can over these beats. You know,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: I just do what I fucking do, man, I do
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: what I do the best I can. And that's all
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: I can say about that. That's fair. I was just
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: with Ghashi, who's a fellow Albanian. Uh yes, sir, and
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: he was extremely uh well, first of all, he played
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: me the unreleased verse that you did for him. He's
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: the best, He's funny, and I was like, bro, why
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: did this Albanians saying why did this not make that out?
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: By the way, the verse was something crazy. It was
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: like it was like vintage action some quickie. Yeah, but
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: it was dope. But I think, you know, he caught
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: me on the spot, man. I told him come over
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: here and hang it out in like a true Albani
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: and you put me on the spot. Yeah, but we're
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: talking about you know, like a true Albanian. I deliver true,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: but we're kind of talking about he was. He was
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: kind of really really like talking about when he goes home,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: like the fact that like certain maps, you can't find
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: Kosovo on certain like Apple maps, and there's like you know,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: yeah I did see that. I remember being there and
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: it wasn't on the map, and and just the the
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: the idea of like, you know, there's the two flag situation.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I just watched the episode I just I dived into
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: a YouTube wormhole of Fuck That's Delicious last month and
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: I saw the episode where you went back home to
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: your grandma's house, and you know, you're obviously walking around
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: your freaking celebrity out there. You're like, you're like jay

• 19:08
  Speaker 1: very you know, it's a very small amount of It's
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: like a you know, it's like a small amount of people.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: And when you become famous in America, it's like, fucking
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: you're Michael Jackson. No matter what. He was talking like that,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: you're you're one of the only other artists that really
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: represent where you're from like that, and that there's other
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: artists that are from that area that I didn't even
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: know about. And he was like, see that's the problem.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: You don't know that, but you know that me and
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Action are from there because we we represent that ship.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: You know, Like, do you feel like that's what representing
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: where you're from? Yeah, Just like he was saying, there's
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: a bunch of other art he listed a bunch of
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: other artists that were Albabi he mentioned and or I know,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: but do it a theyse reps where she's from you
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: know where she's from. She's just a pop star, you
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So people misconstrued maybe, you know,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: but doers one million percent? I know one hundred. She's
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: the one who broke me out there. I saw you
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: did the festival with her out there. Yeah, she's the
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: one who brought me home and her father. They brought
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: me home, you know, like they brought Goshi there. You
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: know what if I brought us home over there the Belushi's.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: How big of a deal with the Belushi's. As a
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: kid of me, we didn't know the Belushies were Ourbanion.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: That's the thing. And then you know, you catch wind
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: of it like one of the old the Albanians. But
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: now you know, Jim always comments on my my pictures
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: and ship and we have like little talks on DM
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: he's he's in the pot and ship like that. It's
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: just pretty amazing. He's a fucking you know, he's just
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: a normal dude. And you know, it seems like all
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: our Beanions show each other love for the most part.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: But I don't. I don't think that there's I think
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: that Ourbanian is like some of the hardest red human
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: beings that there are when someone's outban you, they'll fucking
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: let you know immediately. You don't even have to. It's
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: worn on them in a way. You know, it's worn
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: on them. Man. I'm proud of I'm proud of that
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: because that's where my roots are. That's I grew up
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: with my Albanian grandparents in my house. I grew up
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: that way. I was brought up in that manner. I
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: go home over there, it just feels feels normal, feels everything,
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: everything is okay, you know. And your grandma had came
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: out to the States to kind of like help raise you, right.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: They didn't come to the States for that that Who
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: knows what the hell they came in for. There was war,
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: it was communism over there was when Yugoslavia was breaking up, Okay,
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: when it broke up into a lot of different places.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: You know, it's always been we come from war torn,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: war torn land. I remember seeing that ship on the
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: news as a kid, man, Machadomski. It's a lot of
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: fucking crazy ship back to only for dolphins. You said
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: the Greek has got production on there yourself, Darringer, who
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: avenger fraud al the lineup, mugs Hey, Listen, these are
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: the people that have been with me from the beginning
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: that I've known that I talked to, you know all
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: the time. You and Darringer. How did that? Because obviously
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: Darrenger's having a hell of a run right now with
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: the whole Griselda crew, and I do feel like his
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: sound is Taylor made for you as well. Where did
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: you guys initially first link up at and like, how
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: did you become a fan of what he's doing? Man?
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: I didn't. I just met Darringers as a person, you know,
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: like three four years ago when I when we were
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: meeting everybody, I had already met Gun and Conway, I believe.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: But and then Darrenger came back to New York or
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: some shit like that, and I just met him. He
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: was the producer. He was cool as fuck, he started working, chilling,
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: he came out for a little bit. He's just like
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: he's one of the guys. You know, he's just he's
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: fucking funny as hell. He's a good dude, and he
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: makes amazing music. And he's like he knows music, you know.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: It's not just like he's sitting there and making you know,
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: hitting a drum machine. You know, he's it's like it's different.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: It's odd, you know, and uh like, I appreciate him
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: and the stuff that he does for Griselda, and the
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: fact of the matter is that he does completely different
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: things for me, which is, you know, shows his his versatility,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: and I feel like that's something with him that kind
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: of gets lost. He thinks he thinks of him for
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: one thing, But if you look, if you listen to
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: the songs that he's produced for me, they're different. They're
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: totally different songs, and it's giving you a totally different
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: side of him. So it shows his versatility and being
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: able to make great stuff. How As being one of
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Alchemist's closest friends, you know, a lot of people associate

• 25:04
  Speaker 1: What has been the obviously with COVID going on in
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: this pandemic, You've you've kind of taken the advantage of
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: like a lot of people. Man. I know when the
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: first month of this ship, I was just eating and
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: sitting at home getting fatter, and I started to get
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: my shit together, and it's been dope to see you
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: take advantage of this time, but like get right, I
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: know you, you know you you you have your new baby,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: and I saw that that was like a big inspiration
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: for why you wanted to get your health right. But like,
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: like is there anything that you would give? Like most people,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: I think dieting is the hardest part, right, I mean,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: you know when you if you talk about a diet
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: like doing fucking Atkins or keto, that's hard because you
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: have to stay on some regimental ship and you're getna
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: be your bound to fall off. Right. It's about changing
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: the actual lifestyle. And it's crazy that I'm even able
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: to talk about this because like six months ago, I
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: can tell you about it, but I wasn't living it,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: you know. I was fucking eating cakes and cookies and
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: fucking pounding sugar and fucking compounding it with meats and
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: fucking nasty, just eating like a fucking animal. Like what
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: the hell am I doing? I'm not fucking knowledge, I'm
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: not in fucking rutgers, you know, having having an apple
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Jack's a ball at fucking three in the morning. Haven't
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: had fucking cereal in six months because I eat two
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: boxes of it and it's not even sugary cereal. It's
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: some like old man cereal, you know, and I just
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: like it. So it's a lifestyle change. You have to change. Yeah,
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: you have to change your eating habits, and you have
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: to change your laziness, and you have to change your
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: mindset about starting tomorrow and doing this. You fucking start immediately.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: You gotta just do it. You gotta get out there,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: and you gotta force yourself to move the only way
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: to fucking make yourself better is to do things you
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: really don't like to do, force yourself to do, and
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: you're gonna learn. It's gonna become something that's embedded in you.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: And that's what I do. That Like when I go
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: to the gym, I do the shit that sucks. I
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: do the hardest ship. I ask for the hardest circuits,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: the longest, the fucking most strenuous, the shit that makes
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: me want to fucking barf that I'm drenched in sweat.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: But when I'm done with that and I've achieved, there's
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: no highlight that you know, is it? What's the one
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: thing you miss eating the most since you've started? I
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: really just I crave pasta and I crave pizza. I
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: don't really like nothing. I'm not even like, once you're
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: off the sweets for like two weeks, you're done. You
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: get that out of your system, I think a month
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: or whatever, whatever it is, you just done with it.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: You don't need that shit no more. I just need
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: fucking pasta in every kind of way. He filled with
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: the cheese, filled this way, baked, I feel. But you
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: can have pizza once in a while without the cheese,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: you know, even with the cheese. I like, you know
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: you can have it once in a while, so you
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: you could all I would do every day. Did you
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: cut dairy out of your diet fully? Mm hmm. I
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: do shave some part of me giano reggiana on things,
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: but it's more of like a hard age cheese, which
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: really doesn't count. It's like eating fucking natural yeast, natural yeast.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: I like to fucking think of it in that way,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: nutritional yeast. Oh that's great. Uh. Have you been like
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: with sports? This year has been so fucking weird? Me
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: and you are big sports guys. I know you're a
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: big baseball guy. Have you What have you been thinking
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: so far of the way that have you even been
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: watching any baseball this year or any sports at all
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: because it's been kind of it's been kind of weird.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: You wake up at like eleven am and they'll be
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: like a basketball game on and and Sunday there was basketball, football,
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: and baseball on, which was amazing because that's never happened before. Yeah,
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: I'm not investing my time in football anymore because my
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: team doesn't isn't worth it. So that are you a
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: Jets or Giants? Guy? What do you think? I'm a Jets.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: Giants are worth It's still kind of worthy, you know,
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: the right the Jets. The Jets are they try what
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: They're still disgusting both Adam g ri It kind of
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: just not worth it in general. So I don't waste
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: time on Sundays. I haven't really been watching TV. I
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: listened to games a lot on the on the radio,
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: so I like to listen to Susan and John talk
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: about the Yankees, you know, so that gets me happy.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: And then I'm watching UFC only I'm watching Bellot, I'm
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: watching fights whatever, kick boxing, whatever, Bellatoy, whatever UFC is on,

• 29:44
  Speaker 1: you know for the past, I don't know, for years now,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: it's been the best sport to follow for me. Yeah,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: that's fair. It really gives it a gift that keeps giving,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: really is. I think it's also like the like the
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: the most like I think when you watch any any
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: sport for the most part, like you know, there's load
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: management in the NBA, there's just like some shit that
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: you can complain about. When you watch UFC, it's like,
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: now it's two motherfuckers in the middle of a ring,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: and that's all that. Anybody calls you out if you
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: fucking duck somebody, you're getting called out if this happened,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: no matter, it's like fucking real shit, No matter what,
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: you have to see somebody, you have to fucking go
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: through them. You have to fight, and that's going to
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: be that. If not, you're a fucking pussy and everyone
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: knows it. What is the best part of the quarantine?
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: I know that there's a lot of down parts, but
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: what is the part that you feel like you've appreciated
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: the most about the world kind of chilling for a
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: little bit, you know, it's unfortunate for all the people
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: who lost their jobs, and yeah, of course my grandma passed,
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: lost their homes, yeah, you know, lost their lives, lost everything,

• 31:03
  Speaker 1: I've definitely you know, I go in with the mind
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: frame of positivity always, so I did kind of change
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: my whole shit around. So it forced me to just chill.

  Speaker 1: I have a brand new baby, so I was able
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: to be with my child every single day, you know,

  Speaker 1: nature situations, and really you know, recharge and get a
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: grasp on ourselves and reflect kind of. I mean, you know,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: it was a forced reflection and I need I definitely
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: needed this because if I didn't, who knows what would
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: have happened. Maybe abuld have died or been in the
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: fucking hospitee or some shit, who knows what the fuck. Yeah,
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: I think it was like a forced like it kind
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: of re forced everybody to get their priorities together. Yeah
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Well, not everybody. You fucked
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: a lot of people's minds up and they went the
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: other way. But you know, only the strong survive, and
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: you know, hopefully hopefully people will be able to you know,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: to overcome for sure. Uh, the album comes out Friday, right, Well, shit,

• 32:37
  Speaker 1: the latest with with with you and Vice and the
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: and the show? Because I remember that there was like
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: a little falling out and then I thought, I saw
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: you back on or is that done? There's always a
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: falling out when there's situations that are you know, when
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: people are dishonest and there's things that aren't with and upheld.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: But we overcame one of the situations and we ended
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: up putting out season four and that's the end of
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: the contract. Did four seasons, five seasons. You know, a
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: couple on Instagram, on YouTube and now I'm I'm continuing
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: that myself. I'll be putting it up on my YouTube
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: channel on action brought on YouTube. Yeah, that's what I
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: was gonna tell you, Like, you should just do that
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: shit on your own, bro. I mean, it's my show.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: I invented it, I name it's my shit. They don't
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: own it. I own it hand. And I'm assuming we're
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: still gonna have Mayhem and Best and the crew. Uh well,
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: it's not really feasible at this point. And I think
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: everybody's going to be doing their own shows right now.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: Everyone's gearing up to do their own little thing. So
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm just sticking with what I'm just like a
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: flag of my life and my fitness and my journeys
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: and my food, and you know, this is my life
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I'm a chef. I do these things.
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: I love food, I review food. This is what I do.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: This is my ship, you know what I mean, that's
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: what I do. So I'm going to continue always doing that.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: And everybody's gearing up for their own style of show,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: whatever they do. It looks fucking everyone's stuff is looking
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: really five what what's what's the looking at that we
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: create fucking force spinoffs all? That's what idea. Yeah, I
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: want to see I want to see I want to
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: spin off Master all. I do is create fucking idea?
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Is this, Let's do this, let's do this, let's do this,
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: and wece was really great at one point for getting
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: it done. I think that we had some good people
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: in position that would yes anything. And I'm happy about
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: that because it was a good idea for them and
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: for us. I mean, the idea that you had a
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: TV show watching ancient aliens while getting high with your friends,
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: is that not the best show ever created? That Ship's incredible.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: That's going to continue. Also, my friend for show you
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: talked about, you review few food and all that ship.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: Since you've been eating healthy, what is I view food? No?
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: But like obviously we love to watch fuck that delicious,
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: But since you've started to eat healthy, what has been
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: the one restaurant or place that you've discovered or even
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: a dish that you've discovered that you might not a
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: fuck with before? Because I know me, I look down
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: at a lot of Like I'll look at a menu
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: and I'll see the vegan opkins. I like, fuck out
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: of here with that. Like I'm good. Like, what's something
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: you've discovered, whether it's a restaurant or a dish that
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: you that since the choosing the healthy lifestyle. That that's really,
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: you know, impressed you. I don't know if it's I
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: don't know if it's discovering anything. It's always just trying
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: to adapt. When you go somewhere you're looking at a menu.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: I've made mostly every meal on my own this, you know,
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: this whole time up until maybe a couple months. Who
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm been trying to bake a lot, and
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: I'm doing lots of different things that I you know,
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: if I ate them, it would be bad, but I
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: give it away, So I bake. I give shit away,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: just testing the waters, testing things out, creating recipes and
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: shit like that. But I like simple shit. If I'm
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: gonna go vegan, I'm gonna neaed vegetables. I don't need
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: a burger that's made out of vegetables to look like
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: a burger. You know, I like vegetables. I actually like it, right,
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: you know. So it's there's it's nothing that's that I've discovered.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: It's just discovering adapting, eating well and still having flavor.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: That's really what it's about. Because you think that you know,
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: we're eating healthy, it's not not flavorful. You have to
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: eat like steamed chicken, steamed broccoli. Nah, no, you have
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: to have good fats. This it's all balanced, man, it's
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: all a fucking I'm writing a book. There's gonna be
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: a new book I got. I got two of your
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: books upstairs. I'm writing three new books. Okay, but the
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: health is hit. Another thing. All I care about is
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: doing things that I like doing, man, and nothing stopping me.
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: And now you're mindset, it's over. I'm I'm just happy
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: to see you one independent on all fronts, on the music,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: on the fucking content side, like well, I mean I
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: did just sign a little deal with Loma Vista, but
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: it does feel independent, but it's not exactly the album.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah for this album, no, okay, yeah, and that that
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: album is coming out the twenty fifth. Sure is now
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: when you when you like you said you signed something
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: with Lomavist. I haven't heard of them. But what's something
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: that you that was important, like to find somebody because
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: you obviously just got out of a deal. The last
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: project was independent. It was the Impact, right, I mean
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: that's what does that mean? That means it was independent?
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: I mean they distributed it on all the DSPs. Yeah, yeah,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: that's all that means but but what what what what
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: made you? I don't even know what distributed on all
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: d is? Why the fun can't I do that myself? Like, yo,
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: oh no you can so I mean Loma Vista. I
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: didn't hear them either, But then they explained some of
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: the artists they have, and they have some really great
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: artists like Saint Vincent, like like big Art, like they
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: have Ze Curry, they have a bunch of other people
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: that are cool, you know. And just everybody said that
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: they had a, you know, a cool little situation over there,
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: and I talked to him and I felt good about it.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: And I talked to the owner of the company and
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: he was a real good dude, and the view was exacted.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: I wanted I wanted some help, you know. I wanted
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: a little bit of help behind me because I'm doing
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: all the stuff on my own, at least on that side.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: Let's get some push all the other stuff I could
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: do on my own, like all the art situations, all
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: the ancillary stuff, but the actual music situation and pushing
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: it out just slight help. So that's really the fucking
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: thought process behind that. Would you ever do a podcast? Action?
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: Because you are an amazing storyteller. Yeah, I don't really
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: like talking that much, hey, man, but you could talk.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: I mean I can, but I'm not. You know how
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: many fucking times this is not? Like you know, I
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: always I love doing interviews with people, but it gets
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: tiring of for you. I always do an interview with
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: you because you're my guy from the beginning, and you know,
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: it just it gets fucking tedious, bro, Like, if you
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: had to do these things all the time, you feel
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: it's like, especially when you're doing like that generic radio
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: run generic one, it's not even sometimes even sometimes the
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: ones that you think they're not gonna be generic, it's
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: just becomes so tedious, man, fucking the quist like, so
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: it's fucking my numbing. It's my numbing. So you know,
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: I like I like more. I like thinking more than
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: I like talking a lot. That's fair on camera, you know.
• 39:39
