- 2:14Speaker 6: No, I really wasn't technical, like tech savvy like that.
- 2:17Speaker 6: So somebody ain't put that. And shit on my phone
- 2:21Speaker 6: for me. I ain't fucking with you like that. I
- 2:24Speaker 6: got to ask you this question. You were a legend
- 2:26Speaker 6: for a long time. This affects you directly. How was
- 2:29Speaker 6: the ringtone era? Because you did numbers. You had songs
- 2:32Speaker 6: that people always wanted to hear. The ringtone era was
- 2:35Speaker 6: cool because you made a lot of money when the
- 2:39Speaker 6: business was right.
- 2:40Speaker 2: But it was also not cool because... They robbed a
- 2:45Speaker 2: lot of us.
- 2:45Speaker 6: The accounting, the way to do the accounting on that
- 2:49Speaker 6: shit wasn't like some shit that we was really familiar
- 2:52Speaker 6: with because that shit kind of came into effect like
- 2:56Speaker 6: way after we was popping already.
- 2:58Speaker 2: Yeah, facts.
- 2:59Speaker 6: So, you know, the pre-ringtone contracts didn't really include that.
- 3:06Speaker 6: But once they did, you know, the lack of experience
- 3:13Speaker 6: and information on how to research going about doing your
- 3:16Speaker 6: proper checks and balances with all of that shit. It
- 3:19Speaker 6: took a beating real quick from a lot of the
- 3:21Speaker 6: motherfuckers that took advantage of the lack of information we
- 3:24Speaker 6: had on it.
- 3:25Speaker 2: But the dope shit was, you know, we spun the block. Yeah,
- 3:31Speaker 2: got it, man. Put in a block and make sure
- 3:33Speaker 2: motherfuckers is all accountable, too.
- 3:35Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 3:35Speaker 2: Word.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Get that get back for sure, man. Shout out to
- 3:37Speaker 1: our family at Bootsmoke. We're happy with Busta Rhymes. He
- 3:39Speaker 1: looking for a deal. Let's get this money for Joe, man.

- 4:12Speaker 2: Pulling up to the city. We were surprised he was
- 4:14Speaker 2: in that, man.
- 4:15Speaker 1: How many times you came out here to perform?
- 4:19Speaker 2: And that's why we showed you love? Or is this
- 4:21Speaker 2: kind of your first time out here for real?
- 4:22Speaker 6: We've toured many different tour runs throughout the years and
- 4:27Speaker 6: definitely came through the city because it's just one of
- 4:29Speaker 6: them cities that they like call you. We got the
- 4:35Speaker 6: A markets and the B markets, the A markets. This
- 4:37Speaker 6: was always one of those cities that was a priority.
- 4:41Speaker 6: A market city. When the tour ones was being routed.
- 4:45Speaker 6: I don't remember being on too many tours where this
- 4:47Speaker 6: wasn't a part of the routing.
- 4:49Speaker 5: They let it go.
- 4:50Speaker 6: I guess y'all just some live motherfuckers out here, though. Yeah,
- 4:53Speaker 6: it kind of dimmed down, though, a little bit. We
- 4:55Speaker 6: ended up turning it to the C market.
- 4:57Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah. We used to get everybody, though.
- 5:00Speaker 5: For sure.
- 5:01Speaker 2: Yeah, we had a couple bands in this, man.
- 5:02Speaker 1: But one thing about the city, man, if they rocked
- 5:04Speaker 1: you the first.
- 5:04Speaker 2: Time, they would want you every time. 100%. So I
- 5:07Speaker 2: was like, it's one good impression of the city, man. Yeah.
- 5:09Speaker 2: But you know what time it is, man? We got
- 5:10Speaker 2: a legend, man. Busta Rhymes, man. Big Dog. We appreciate
- 5:12Speaker 2: you sliding on us, man. Appreciate y'all having me pull up.
- 5:15Speaker 2: Real shit. Thanks, bro. Mike, load this up.
- 5:17Speaker 1: Now, this is crazy, because I did not know that
- 5:19Speaker 1: you was going to be on the show, but this
- 5:20Speaker 1: went crazy on Twitter last week.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Do you remember this at all?
- 5:24Speaker 1: You was a part of Legendary Song, man, one of
- 5:26Speaker 1: our childhood favorite movies, man. Come on, the Space Jail Joy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 5:30Speaker 2: I was like, damn, everybody was on this track together?
- 5:32Speaker 2: What was that moment like? What was that call like
- 5:34Speaker 2: to do this?
- 5:35Speaker 6: I mean, the call was... It wasn't really, like, out
- 5:40Speaker 6: of the norm at that time, because I was.
- 5:44Speaker 2: I was damn knowing everybody's shit at the time. That's
- 5:46Speaker 2: a fact.
- 5:48Speaker 6: So when the call and the opportunity came, I was
- 5:52Speaker 6: extremely excited about it when I found out who was
- 5:56Speaker 6: on the record. The opportunities is always, we always appreciate
- 6:00Speaker 6: the opportunities all the time.
- 6:02Speaker 2: But, you know, you get opportunities, cool. You're going to
- 6:04Speaker 2: do it.
- 6:04Speaker 6: You're going to knock it out if you're into it.
- 6:06Speaker 6: But then there's certain shit that you get excited about.
- 6:10Speaker 6: Me rocking with the bros at the time, you know,
- 6:12Speaker 6: Meff and B-Real and Coolio, rest in peace, and El
- 6:16Speaker 6: and everybody that was on it. It was super dope
- 6:19Speaker 6: to have that moment with them. Because we was all popping,
- 6:22Speaker 6: everybody was doing their thing, and we was all fans
- 6:25Speaker 6: of each other's work. So looking forward to that moment,
- 6:29Speaker 6: being on the set. That shit was some anxiety shit.
- 6:32Speaker 6: Cause you know, he wasn't trying to be the weak link.
- 6:34Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 6:36Speaker 6: At this point, the song was done. So it was like,
- 6:39Speaker 6: you just was thinking about how are we going to
- 6:43Speaker 6: smash whoever else is going to be doing their performance
- 6:45Speaker 6: on a video? Like the performance battle was the concern
- 6:49Speaker 6: at the moment. And the vibe was always super dope
- 6:51Speaker 6: because every time we got around each other, whether it
- 6:54Speaker 6: was at a show, or in a club just chilling,
- 6:57Speaker 6: or on a video set, it was just love and respect.
- 7:00Speaker 6: Everybody just, that energy was reciprocated in a consistent fashion.
- 7:07Speaker 6: It's a little different now because I think, you know,
- 7:11Speaker 6: this camera era and the trolling era and the clout
- 7:14Speaker 6: chasing era, I think, you know, people, they don't really
- 7:19Speaker 6: understand how significant the value of the relationship is that
- 7:23Speaker 6: you should, you should appreciate because you can't put a
- 7:27Speaker 6: price tag on genuine relationships and being resources to each other.
- 7:32Speaker 6: I think a motherfucker would think about, nowadays, a motherfucker
- 7:36Speaker 6: want to actually.
- 7:38Speaker 2: Troll somebody that.
- 7:39Speaker 6: They would be better off aligning with for the clickbait
- 7:45Speaker 6: before they actually think about the value of maintaining a relationship.
- 7:49Speaker 2: For sure.
- 7:49Speaker 1: That's one thing, being here, I always spoke on it
- 7:51Speaker 1: earlier because I know he always said relationships are worth
- 7:53Speaker 1: more than money.
- 7:53Speaker 6: Right, right.
- 7:54Speaker 5: That's how I move.
- 7:55Speaker 3: But they do it, Busta, because that's how they feel
- 7:59Speaker 3: like they'll get your attention.
- 8:01Speaker 6: Yeah, but they also do it, too, because, you know,
- 8:03Speaker 6: we kind of got to take responsibility a little bit.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:05Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying? Like, accountability ain't upheld in
- 8:10Speaker 6: the same way that it used to be.
- 8:11Speaker 2: Facts. You know what I'm saying?
- 8:14Speaker 6: The moral fiber of what we stood on principle-wise and
- 8:18Speaker 6: respect-wise and manners-wise... it's different how you upheld accountability then
- 8:25Speaker 6: as opposed to now.
- 8:26Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 8:27Speaker 6: Because, you know, at that time, you knew it wasn't
- 8:31Speaker 6: too many run and go tell type of mentalities around.
- 8:35Speaker 2: Yeah. It wasn't too many cameras around. Yeah.
- 8:38Speaker 6: So, you know, if you had to get addressed, you
- 8:41Speaker 6: had to understand that you had to actually deal with that.
- 8:45Speaker 2: Way different than them.
- 8:47Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
- 8:48Speaker 2: Hey, Buster, you're the real PR. You had the scene.
- 8:51Speaker 2: You get the viewers out of pocket. You couldn't just
- 8:54Speaker 2: stay in that house back then. You can stay in
- 8:57Speaker 2: the house on your phone now.
- 8:58Speaker 5: You got to go see people.
- 8:59Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 9:00Speaker 2: Different day. That's a fact. Definitely a different day. Did
- 9:03Speaker 2: you know that movie was going to be as crazy
- 9:04Speaker 2: as it was then? I mean, you never know how
- 9:10Speaker 2: crazy some shit is going to be until it....
- 9:13Speaker 6: It come to fruition but you know anything at that
- 9:15Speaker 6: time especially Alon you Alon with fucking Michael Jordan and
- 9:22Speaker 6: L and Julio and Cypress B-Rail and.
- 9:26Speaker 2: Meth it's like all of at that time it was
- 9:30Speaker 2: like the Avengers.
- 9:32Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying and then you know wasn't
- 9:34Speaker 6: nobody able to talk to Michael Jordan and what he
- 9:39Speaker 6: was able to.
- 9:41Speaker 2: To do which is how he He was a superhero
- 9:44Speaker 2: to all of us. You know what I'm saying?
- 9:45Speaker 6: So the opportunity was, we knew, we all knew like
- 9:50Speaker 6: this shit was a big deal, but we definitely didn't
- 9:52Speaker 6: know how crazy it was going to be until it
- 9:54Speaker 6: actually happened.
- 9:55Speaker 2: Hell yeah.
- 9:56Speaker 5: For sure.
- 9:57Speaker 2: For sure, man. All right, Barbie, you here, man?
- 9:58Speaker 1: Let's get some drinks for him, man. Shout out to
- 10:02Speaker 1: our bartender.
- 10:03Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
- 10:04Speaker 6: What kind of drinks y'all got going on over there?
- 10:08Speaker 6: It depends on the time of the day. I don't
- 10:11Speaker 6: usually do that this.
- 10:12Speaker 2: Early, but... Okay, cool. Thank you. What we got today, B?
- 10:17Speaker 2: I had some food for breakfast. Okay.
- 10:21Speaker 6: You still not going to be in the video.
- 10:23Speaker 2: Yes, sir. On the way. August 25th, baby. Salute to you, bro.
- 10:27Speaker 2: We appreciate you. Thank you, man.
- 10:28Speaker 5: I want to ask, before we move on, bro. I
- 10:49Speaker 5: love Spliff, bro.
- 10:51Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
- 10:51Speaker 3: One of the greatest entertainers in the world, bro. How
- 10:54Speaker 3: did y'all link up? That's been your man since Ground Up.
- 10:57Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah. Me, Spliff, and Scratchator. Spliff and Scratchator actually
- 11:01Speaker 6: grew up on the same block. It was like one
- 11:04Speaker 6: block apart from each other. Yeah. I had family members
- 11:07Speaker 6: that lived on that block that Scratch lived on. Spliff
- 11:11Speaker 6: was the block before Scratch, but the same block. Troy
- 11:15Speaker 6: Avenue in East Flatbush, Brooklyn. And when my mother and
- 11:19Speaker 6: my father divorced on the weekends that my pops had
- 11:24Speaker 6: us to pick us up, me and my brother, for
- 11:27Speaker 6: the visitation, he used to bring us to all of
- 11:29Speaker 6: his friends' crib in his age group. So we wasn't
- 11:34Speaker 6: really trying to be around them, the old family members
- 11:38Speaker 6: and friends.
- 11:40Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 11:41Speaker 6: Because the way we was raised in, you know, I'm,
- 11:45Speaker 6: I'm from a Jamaican upbringing. That household, the respect that
- 11:52Speaker 6: you're raised with is kids ought to be.
- 11:56Speaker 2: Kids aren't... How does the saying go again? Seen, not heard.
- 12:00Speaker 6: Kids ought to be seen and not heard unless spoken to.
- 12:06Speaker 6: That shit just always felt like you was under a microscope.
- 12:11Speaker 6: that was a constant disciplinary microscope, even though we was having,
- 12:15Speaker 6: we was loved tremendously by, by the family and friends,
- 12:17Speaker 6: but we would go to split block because my family
- 12:21Speaker 6: members that lived over there, my horn had five kids. So,
- 12:25Speaker 6: you know, we over there and we outside. So seeing
- 12:29Speaker 6: spliffing and scratch a tour, you know, and a bunch
- 12:33Speaker 6: of the other kids on the block, it was just
- 12:35Speaker 6: a norm just to be outside and everybody doing their
- 12:37Speaker 6: shit and, You know, the Kung Fu flicks would come
- 12:40Speaker 6: on at 3 o'clock on a Saturday at Channel 5
- 12:42Speaker 6: and we'd be outside doing all of that shit. All
- 12:45Speaker 6: of the regular degular hanging out and fucking around until
- 12:49Speaker 6: that shit come on and then everybody jet in the
- 12:51Speaker 6: crib and then come back outside and you should see
- 12:53Speaker 6: a bunch of Jackie Chan's and Bruce Lee's.
- 12:56Speaker 2: For real?
- 12:56Speaker 6: For my body, I think I met Spliff when I
- 13:00Speaker 6: was about seven years old.
- 13:01Speaker 2: Damn.
- 13:02Speaker 6: Spliff was always like the knucklehead of the block. You
- 13:06Speaker 6: know what I'm saying? And Spliff was really, really in
- 13:10Speaker 6: the street. Scratch A Toll was nice always as a DJ.
- 13:14Speaker 6: So he was a part of this clique that was
- 13:17Speaker 6: called TNT Crush. And they was the ones that always
- 13:20Speaker 6: was the biggest sound system in the neighborhood for when
- 13:23Speaker 6: the block parties and all of that shit was happening.
- 13:26Speaker 2: They was lit.
- 13:27Speaker 6: So Scratch A Toll was the youngest DJ in that clique,
- 13:30Speaker 6: but he was the first one to scratch dance hall
- 13:34Speaker 6: and Jamaican records like they was hip hop shit.
- 13:37Speaker 2: And that was never seen before, scratch at all.
- 13:40Speaker 6: At least from my experience of being around black parties
- 13:43Speaker 6: in the hood and different blocks or whatever. But I
- 13:46Speaker 6: ended up getting into mischief and fucked around and got
- 13:51Speaker 6: in some trouble when I got to like 11, 12.
- 13:54Speaker 6: And it was kind of the thing because the street
- 13:57Speaker 6: shit was exciting. A lot of it was because, you know,
- 14:01Speaker 6: we needed it. Like, I don't got that. I come
- 14:05Speaker 6: from the project's backstories. You know what I'm saying? I got,
- 14:09Speaker 6: I was definitely, and I always like to celebrate my parents.
- 14:13Speaker 2: In this way.
- 14:14Speaker 6: Like, they bust their ass to make sure I ain't
- 14:16Speaker 6: really need shit. But we was with the bullshit. So
- 14:20Speaker 6: we was outside getting caught up in shit. And I
- 14:23Speaker 6: ended up moving to Long Island. And that's how Leaders
- 14:26Speaker 6: of the New School started. But I would say around 15,
- 14:30Speaker 6: I moved back to Brooklyn because my mom's moved to Florida.
- 14:34Speaker 6: And I didn't want to go to Florida at that age.
- 14:37Speaker 6: So come back to Brooklyn, signed. I came back to
- 14:41Speaker 6: Brooklyn at 15. Ended up being back around Spliff and
- 14:45Speaker 6: scratching him. And the relationship just always evolved because we
- 14:51Speaker 6: kind of just, we was like each other's first real
- 14:55Speaker 6: friends at that young age. So when leaders broke up,
- 14:58Speaker 6: you know, I was so used to this group shit
- 15:00Speaker 6: and just having that support. Whether I look left or
- 15:03Speaker 6: look right, Dinko was there, Brown was there, my cousin Milo,
- 15:05Speaker 6: which was the DJ, was behind us. I felt like
- 15:08Speaker 6: I needed that. So, Spliff and Scratchator obviously needed DJ,
- 15:13Speaker 6: but Spliff wasn't even rhyming yet. But Spliff was into
- 15:17Speaker 6: shit in the street that he needed to be saved from. So, fortunately,
- 15:23Speaker 6: he was willing to listen and embrace the opportunity. of
- 15:27Speaker 6: becoming what he became because Spliff became the hype man
- 15:32Speaker 6: before he started rhyming. And when Spliff started rhyming, that's
- 15:35Speaker 6: when I was like, this motherfucker's a superstar because, you know,
- 15:40Speaker 6: y'all going to hear Spliff music soon too because he
- 15:42Speaker 6: got a project coming out this year as well. But
- 15:44Speaker 6: that friendship just was always some real family, homegrown, organic,
- 15:52Speaker 6: from day one shit.
- 15:53Speaker 1: And you could tell. Like, you never let nobody play
- 15:55Speaker 1: with his name or nothing like that. Everybody was like, no,
- 15:57Speaker 1: that's family. Like, we a band, basically. We all locked in,
- 16:00Speaker 1: getting to it, for sure.
- 16:01Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a fact.
- 16:02Speaker 1: Obviously, you say you've been on a good vibe run, man.
- 16:04Speaker 1: What was it like, man, for the next time in
- 16:05Speaker 1: the championship, man?
- 16:07Speaker 6: I mean, obviously, that shit was emotional for us. That
- 16:11Speaker 6: shit was emotional, son. The thing is, we're sitting around
- 16:14Speaker 6: looking at each other wiping tears, bro. Like, when they
- 16:19Speaker 6: last won, I don't even remember that shit. I was
- 16:22Speaker 6: too young to remember that. So this is like the
- 16:25Speaker 6: first time in this lifetime for us.
- 16:27Speaker 2: Yeah. And hopefully not the last, but. Oh, it's over.
- 16:32Speaker 2: What type shit you talking about? What you mean? We're
- 16:38Speaker 2: talking about the story. Yeah. He said, please enjoy. All right, cool.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Let's move on. Right along. Now, for me personally, it.
- 16:53Speaker 6: Was incredible because this whole year, and like I said,
- 16:57Speaker 6: these last couple of years, three, four years for me,
- 17:00Speaker 6: has been incredibly amazing. So to see that the incredible
- 17:04Speaker 6: shit that's been happening is continuing to happen, and it's
- 17:09Speaker 6: even getting more incredible. It's a testament to, you know,
- 17:13Speaker 6: speaking the shit that you want to manifest into existence.
- 17:16Speaker 6: Because I make it my business to say the blessings
- 17:19Speaker 6: don't stop so we don't stop every single day.
- 17:22Speaker 2: Hell yeah.
- 17:22Speaker 6: And Nick's won that championship on the anniversary of the
- 17:26Speaker 6: Big Bang album, which had New York shit on it.
- 17:29Speaker 2: Damn.
- 17:30Speaker 5: Damn, that's hard.
- 17:31Speaker 2: And the album turned 20 this year. Yes, sir. So
- 17:33Speaker 2: that album came out June 13th, 2026. Game 5 chip day,
- 17:35Speaker 2: June 13th.
- 17:36Speaker 6: 2026 came out 2006, excuse me, the big bang, but
- 17:45Speaker 6: this is the 2026 year, the 20th year of the
- 17:48Speaker 6: anniversary of that album, along with five other albums that
- 17:51Speaker 6: I'm celebrating the anniversary for. But on the topic of
- 17:54Speaker 6: the next shit, it wasn't no, there couldn't be a
- 17:57Speaker 6: more incredible reward and feeling for me than to be
- 18:01Speaker 6: able to see that they won the shit for the
- 18:02Speaker 6: first time in 53 years on a Busta Rhymes 20
- 18:06Speaker 6: year anniversary album, where I did a song, called New
- 18:09Speaker 6: York shit shouting all of my motherfucking teams.
- 18:12Speaker 2: From New York. Yes, sir. So that shit was an
- 18:14Speaker 2: incredible feeling.
- 18:15Speaker 6: But, you know, that again is like a testament to
- 18:20Speaker 6: the amazing shit that's happening for me and has been happening.
- 18:23Speaker 6: So I got a 25-year anniversary celebration happening with the
- 18:27Speaker 6: Genesis album right now with Touch It and Break Your Neck.
- 18:32Speaker 6: And my first solo album with Woo Ha, the coming album,
- 18:35Speaker 6: that's 30 this year, First Leaders of the New School
- 18:38Speaker 6: album is 35 years old this year. And the Low
- 18:41Speaker 6: End Theory Tribe Called Quest album turns 35 this year
- 18:45Speaker 6: as well with Scenario and Oh My God.
- 18:47Speaker 2: Where are you? Yeah, so it's an amazing year.
- 18:50Speaker 6: And you know, this year is also the 20-year anniversary
- 18:53Speaker 6: of J Dilla's transition.
- 18:55Speaker 2: Absolutely. Rest in peace to Dilla. Rest in peace to Dilla.
- 18:57Speaker 6: Miss him, love him, and always did everything that I
- 19:01Speaker 6: felt I was able to do to uphold the integrity
- 19:04Speaker 6: of his legacy and make sure he It's damn near
- 19:07Speaker 6: impossible to forget them.
- 19:09Speaker 2: I mean, in addition to the whole Dilla estate. Absolutely.
- 19:12Speaker 6: You know, shout out to Dilla estate and the heirs
- 19:14Speaker 6: and big up to Ma Dukes and Ella Jay and
- 19:17Speaker 6: his two beautiful daughters and the legal team over there because,
- 19:21Speaker 6: you know, obviously nothing ain't happening without them blessing it
- 19:26Speaker 6: and giving it their blessing. But it's so crazy because
- 19:29Speaker 6: this Dilla Just Two album is coming on August 25th.
- 19:36Speaker 6: And I just realized recently that the Grammy Awards is
- 19:40Speaker 6: airing on Dilla's birthday, which is February 7th. So it's
- 19:45Speaker 6: just divine alignment. Everything going on this year. And it's amazing.
- 19:50Speaker 6: to be able to have this alignment surrounding everything I
- 19:54Speaker 6: got going on and with the people that I love
- 19:57Speaker 6: that I'm able to celebrate all of this magic with.
- 20:00Speaker 2: Absolutely, man. We're talking about you being a legend.

- 20:53Speaker 1: I want to ask you, for you to still grow,
- 20:55Speaker 1: do your thing, and progress in this stage, what's it
- 20:58Speaker 1: like seeing your other peers doing the same thing? Like,
- 21:00Speaker 1: we look across the board. Like, Joe and Jada got
- 21:01Speaker 1: a pod. Shout out to the volume. Like, for them
- 21:03Speaker 1: to still be out here active, to see so many
- 21:05Speaker 1: of our legends. Like, we don't joke about it all, but, like,
- 21:07Speaker 1: to see world performance, and we see our legends. Like,
- 21:09Speaker 1: we just seen Tushar go out there, and everybody from
- 21:13Speaker 1: Mexicans to little-ass.
- 21:14Speaker 2: White kids who are singing, and, like, to see our legends.
- 21:17Speaker 2: We just seen Hov. We just seen Hov in New York.
- 21:19Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 21:21Speaker 6: That's a different shit. Three nights at the Yankee Stadium
- 21:24Speaker 6: is some other shit. But to see it, it's an
- 21:27Speaker 6: amazing thing. I think the most incredible thing that people
- 21:32Speaker 6: are witnessing for the first time in hip hop is
- 21:37Speaker 6: our alumni of MCs is not only active, but we
- 21:43Speaker 6: are mastering the main. And we're not only mastering the navigation,
- 21:52Speaker 6: and showing motherfuckers the evolution and the growth, but we
- 21:56Speaker 6: navigating this shit and doing it on our own terms.
- 21:59Speaker 6: And we will still bust whoever asked that question. So
- 22:05Speaker 6: it's like y'all are witnessing in real time that we're
- 22:10Speaker 6: actually getting better with time. And that's probably one of
- 22:14Speaker 6: the most rewarding parts about the whole shit, because this
- 22:18Speaker 6: hip hop shit, It's interesting how for so long we
- 22:21Speaker 6: hear motherfuckers try to date it and talk about when
- 22:25Speaker 6: an MC.
- 22:27Speaker 2: Should sit down.
- 22:29Speaker 6: And I like to just only engage in those conversations
- 22:33Speaker 6: because I live by showing motherfuckers better than I can
- 22:36Speaker 6: tell them.
- 22:37Speaker 2: So until you could really display a.
- 22:44Speaker 6: Justified reason, which is very far from an impossibility, It's
- 22:50Speaker 6: not too far. It's already very difficult to compete with
- 22:56Speaker 6: motherfuckers that has become the Daniels, the Mr.
- 23:00Speaker 2: Miyagi's of this shit.
- 23:02Speaker 6: Like when you start evolving and master this shit that
- 23:04Speaker 6: we've been doing to sensei levels, I become more dangerous
- 23:07Speaker 6: with time. So, you know, until you could figure out
- 23:12Speaker 6: how to compete with the way I've matured and something
- 23:16Speaker 6: that I've put well, I put well over my, my
- 23:19Speaker 6: hundred thousand, fuck a 10,000 hours or 20,000. We done
- 23:23Speaker 6: put a hundred thousand, two, 300 million hours into this shit.
- 23:27Speaker 2: Over the years. So we, we will, we will, we
- 23:31Speaker 2: will wash.
- 23:31Speaker 6: Your ass with grace. And, and, and, and, and the
- 23:34Speaker 6: fun in that is, is, is motherfuckers that could respect
- 23:41Speaker 6: and be inspired. I think that's the great, feeling about
- 23:45Speaker 6: watching our peers and each other still moving and shaking
- 23:49Speaker 6: because a lot of the younger MCs that might be
- 23:52Speaker 6: talking about when an elder statesman needs to sit down
- 23:55Speaker 6: or when one of the gods or the goddesses of
- 23:59Speaker 6: this shit should sit down, they're going to hope and
- 24:02Speaker 6: wish that they could still do what they love and.
- 24:08Speaker 2: Still be on their A game when they get to
- 24:09Speaker 2: this point.
- 24:10Speaker 1: Yeah yeah build upon it like it's funny like you
- 24:12Speaker 1: see a generation of kids now they don't know Method
- 24:15Speaker 1: Man as a rapper they know him as an actor
- 24:16Speaker 1: they know Ice-T as an OG they see him as
- 24:20Speaker 1: Law and Order like the elevation and stuff to continue
- 24:23Speaker 1: to go on and still be cold is fire for
- 24:24Speaker 1: sure absolutely we got a personal favorite we can go
- 24:27Speaker 1: around the room um Music video buff.
- 24:29Speaker 2: You set the tone. Get your shit off me. Go ahead.
- 24:32Speaker 4: I have to ask you. It's not inappropriate. I mean,
- 24:36Speaker 4: but like Janet Jackson.
- 24:37Speaker 2: No, no, no. To have a video. Come on. Like
- 24:43Speaker 2: Janet Jackson. I mean, I know she smells good. No disrespect, but.
- 24:48Speaker 7: She was so cold like what was that like I
- 24:54Speaker 7: know we see guys like Wale is one of my
- 24:56Speaker 7: favorite artists we rock with Wale he's one of the
- 24:59Speaker 7: best R & B singers but for you you're one
- 25:01Speaker 7: of the originators like they had Janet and Mariah and
- 25:04Speaker 7: all those people that collab with those kind of artists
- 25:06Speaker 7: what was that like how did the Janet Jackson whole
- 25:08Speaker 7: thing come about.
- 25:10Speaker 6: The Janet thing came about I always gotta thank Angie
- 25:13Speaker 6: Martinez for this moment because um Angie Martinez was on
- 25:19Speaker 6: Hot 97 before she got over to Power 105. She
- 25:25Speaker 6: had the prime time slot on the station, the highest
- 25:30Speaker 6: ratings on the station. She would get all of the
- 25:33Speaker 6: biggest stars to pull up to do the interviews. So
- 25:35Speaker 6: whenever people was passing through the New York side of things,
- 25:38Speaker 6: whether they was touring or they was promoting a project,
- 25:40Speaker 6: you had to go see Angie.
- 25:42Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 25:44Speaker 6: On this day in particularly, Janet was being interviewed by
- 25:48Speaker 6: Angie and it was about her Velvet Rope tour for
- 25:51Speaker 6: that album. And Angie asked her, you know, what rappers
- 25:57Speaker 6: would you like to work with that you've never worked
- 25:58Speaker 6: with before? And she had worked with Heavy D before me,
- 26:05Speaker 6: but she's never been on a hip hop artist album before.
- 26:09Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying? So I think Heavy D
- 26:12Speaker 6: got on one of her joints, but this was her
- 26:14Speaker 6: first step out. as a feature on a hip-hop project
- 26:20Speaker 6: and a hip-hop artist's album. So she said, Busta Rhymes.
- 26:25Speaker 6: And I was driving, actually, to the city to go
- 26:27Speaker 6: to a meeting at the label. I was on Electric
- 26:30Speaker 6: Records at the time, big up to Sylvia Ron, the queen.
- 26:34Speaker 6: And when I heard Janet say, Busta Rhymes, I almost crashed.
- 26:39Speaker 6: I literally had to pull over. And I called my manager,
- 26:43Speaker 6: Mona Scott Young.
- 26:44Speaker 2: Man.
- 26:46Speaker 6: And this was when Volley, the management, was still popping.
- 26:49Speaker 6: Rest in peace, Chris Lighty. But I called Mona and
- 26:53Speaker 6: told Mona to get in touch with Janet. I just
- 26:55Speaker 6: heard her say she wanted to work with Busta Rhymes
- 26:57Speaker 6: or Angie Martinez. Tell her I got a song for her.
- 27:00Speaker 6: And I'm ready to do this shit immediately. I ain't
- 27:03Speaker 6: have no song. So, again, it's about speaking shit into existence.
- 27:10Speaker 6: Janet was, I'm sure for a lot of us, but
- 27:15Speaker 6: I had the crush on Janet when she was Willis'
- 27:17Speaker 6: girlfriend from different stores.
- 27:20Speaker 2: Damn. When she was Penny on Good Times. Hey. Poetic
- 27:25Speaker 2: justice with pot. Yeah. Q-tip.
- 27:30Speaker 6: I've always loved that woman. And to this day, I
- 27:34Speaker 6: still hold her in the highest regard because, you know,
- 27:38Speaker 6: she just was incredibly talented from single-digit age. But it
- 27:42Speaker 6: was always beautiful to me no matter what age level
- 27:45Speaker 6: she was. she evolved into. So when the opportunity came
- 27:50Speaker 6: and we put the song together, I think the moment
- 27:52Speaker 6: of actually knowing that I'm going to be in the
- 27:54Speaker 6: same room with her, that's when shit got a little,
- 27:58Speaker 6: cause you don't want to, you ain't trying to fuck
- 28:00Speaker 6: the energy up in the slightest way.
- 28:01Speaker 2: Like you ain't trying to do nothing wrong.
- 28:03Speaker 6: So, you know, we did all type of research to
- 28:06Speaker 6: see the shit that she was going to like or
- 28:07Speaker 6: that she did like. So set up the studio when
- 28:10Speaker 6: she agreed where she wanted to work at. She chose
- 28:13Speaker 6: the studio. We, Mutual location, not in New York. I
- 28:16Speaker 6: forget where it was, but we just decorated the studio
- 28:20Speaker 6: with everything that we researched that she liked. The type
- 28:23Speaker 6: of flowers she liked, the fragrances she liked. Yeah. And
- 28:27Speaker 6: then when she came, I just greeted her real quick
- 28:31Speaker 6: and chopped it up briefly because my.
- 28:33Speaker 2: Rhymes wasn't finished.
- 28:35Speaker 6: But all of the vocal reps was pre-recorded for her
- 28:39Speaker 6: to do and add her.
- 28:43Speaker 2: Shit to it. a magic.
- 28:45Speaker 6: And I stayed in another room the whole time and
- 28:49Speaker 6: finished penning my shit and spitting it. And when I
- 28:52Speaker 6: came back and heard her finish, once I found out
- 28:54Speaker 6: she was done, I then brought my performance lyrically over
- 28:58Speaker 6: to the song in her room. And when she was
- 29:02Speaker 6: hearing it and vibing it, I think this was the
- 29:04Speaker 6: longest time we was in the same space because we
- 29:07Speaker 6: just kept playing this shit over and over and just
- 29:09Speaker 6: loving what we was putting together.
- 29:11Speaker 2: I reconfide.
- 29:11Speaker 6: And then the day of the video shoot, That's when
- 29:14Speaker 6: shit was like, it was nerve wracking in the beginning,
- 29:18Speaker 6: but she went out her way to make sure that
- 29:22Speaker 6: I was comfortable. And she saw what we, you know,
- 29:25Speaker 6: the level of production that we was bringing to the
- 29:27Speaker 6: shit with Hype Williams and the money we spent. She
- 29:30Speaker 6: just really, really respected and appreciated that we wasn't playing
- 29:35Speaker 6: with this moment.
- 29:35Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 29:37Speaker 5: So you came up with that concept for that video?
- 29:40Speaker 6: Yeah, I came up with every concept for my videos
- 29:42Speaker 6: because I'm a movie fanatic. So every movie that I
- 29:46Speaker 6: wished that I was in, I would make a video
- 29:49Speaker 6: of that shit Because I can put myself in the motherfucker.
- 29:51Speaker 1: That's how we got Pascal Vassier being the Hall of Nice.
- 29:54Speaker 6: Yeah. That's exactly that. That's how you got Put Your
- 29:56Speaker 6: Hands with coming to America. That's how you got... The
- 30:00Speaker 6: Janet video was the liquid robot from Terminator 2 movie.
- 30:04Speaker 6: So that's how you got all of that liquid shit
- 30:06Speaker 6: with the glass breaking. That shit was crazy. T2, a
- 30:09Speaker 6: legendary movie, bro. Yeah, these is the movies that I
- 30:12Speaker 6: was in love with at the time. Even the name
- 30:14Speaker 6: of the album, Extinction Level Event, that came from a movie...
- 30:20Speaker 6: It was one of the early movies.
- 30:22Speaker 2: I forget.
- 30:22Speaker 6: It came out in 98 or 97, but it was
- 30:25Speaker 6: a movie, one of the first movies about an asteroid
- 30:28Speaker 6: hitting the planet. And they described the moment as an
- 30:32Speaker 6: extinction-level event. I forget the name of the movie.
- 30:35Speaker 2: Damn.
- 30:36Speaker 6: But a lot of the shit that I've done with
- 30:39Speaker 6: these albums, titles, and videos, they definitely was shit that
- 30:43Speaker 6: was from movies.
- 30:46Speaker 1: With you being a movie buff, what's some of your
- 30:47Speaker 1: favorite movies or some of the more recent movies you
- 30:49Speaker 1: tapped into recently?
- 30:50Speaker 2: Sinners is incredible. Okay. Banger.
- 30:53Speaker 6: That's that battle another day with Tiana Taylor and Leonardo DiCaprio.
- 30:57Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That movie was dope. That shit

- 31:05Speaker 2: pretty good movie.

- 31:08Speaker 6: enjoyed it because the chemistry that Tiana and.
- 31:13Speaker 2: Leo, Sean Penn. It was Armageddon. That whole shit was
- 31:16Speaker 2: just something I didn't expect to see.
- 31:18Speaker 6: Yeah, that was a... You know what I'm saying? Them
- 31:20Speaker 6: three together, that shit was very left field. Like, whoever
- 31:23Speaker 6: thought of having them play those roles and write the
- 31:26Speaker 6: shit the way they wrote it for them to play
- 31:29Speaker 6: and deliver the character in the way that they did
- 31:32Speaker 6: was crazy to me. Armageddon was a movie? Armageddon was
- 31:36Speaker 6: a movie. Armageddon was definitely the... I don't know if
- 31:39Speaker 6: it was Armageddon.
- 31:40Speaker 7: No.

- 32:46Speaker 1: and stuff, and I feel like DMX and I get
- 32:48Speaker 1: enough love for how good he played in a lot
- 32:51Speaker 1: of movies where he was like the main star in
- 32:53Speaker 1: like Denver action flicks at the time period like that's
- 32:56Speaker 1: a time period we probably won't get back to but
- 32:57Speaker 1: like DMX was like a legend in action flicks you
- 33:00Speaker 1: know you would tap in with that heavy but that's Super,
- 33:03Speaker 1: super underrated.
- 33:03Speaker 2: Nah, that's a fact. Rest in peace to the dog.
- 33:06Speaker 2: Come on, man. Word.
- 33:07Speaker 1: Not to jump around, but it's a new project, man.
- 33:09Speaker 1: All right, man, listen, we already know you and Wayne together.
- 33:11Speaker 1: That's already, you know what I'm saying?
- 33:14Speaker 2: Easy money.
- 33:14Speaker 6: Speaking of that, that single dropped today.
- 33:16Speaker 2: Okay. Talk your shit.
- 33:18Speaker 6: It should drop at 3 o'clock this afternoon so everybody.
- 33:20Speaker 2: Can go stream. Yeah, get familiar. Word.
- 33:24Speaker 6: And another record off the Me and Dilla album is
- 33:27Speaker 6: called Spaz. That came out like a week prior, so...
- 33:31Speaker 6: We just kind of just beating them left and right
- 33:34Speaker 6: with the slappers and with the heat and just making
- 33:36Speaker 6: sure that everybody know that this feeling that a lot
- 33:40Speaker 6: of the generation recently probably has never heard or experienced
- 33:45Speaker 6: in the way that the focus and concentrated effort went
- 33:50Speaker 6: into making sure that we restore that energy and that
- 33:52Speaker 6: feeling and give a friendly reminder to the generations that
- 33:56Speaker 6: is from this sound and this feeling, but putting the time,
- 34:01Speaker 6: a timeless greatness on all of this incredible music that
- 34:05Speaker 6: is from that feeling into what's actually being done to
- 34:10Speaker 6: share it with the people now. Because I don't want
- 34:12Speaker 6: nothing to feel nostalgic or old. I just want motherfuckers
- 34:15Speaker 6: to really appreciate the timeless greatness in this body of
- 34:19Speaker 6: work that me and Dilla put together. So yeah, big
- 34:24Speaker 6: up to Lil Wayne, man. He definitely blacked out on
- 34:26Speaker 6: the joint, for sure.
- 34:28Speaker 5: I tell you, West Thomas, that record with you and
- 34:30Speaker 5: Chris Brown.
- 34:31Speaker 2: Oh, good looking, man.
- 34:32Speaker 5: Everybody and they mama tries to.
- 34:35Speaker 2: I was trying to rap it early.
- 34:37Speaker 5: When I heard Chico Bean do that, I said, bro,
- 34:40Speaker 5: that's crazy.
- 34:41Speaker 2: Now that he vibes up. How'd that come about, you
- 34:44Speaker 2: and Chris chopping on? So I was in a studio
- 34:47Speaker 2: in New York.
- 34:47Speaker 6: I was actually in a studio that is owned by
- 34:50Speaker 6: Jerry Wonders, Platinum Sound Studio.
- 34:54Speaker 2: Midtown, Manhattan at the time.
- 34:56Speaker 6: And, um, We was in a studio in one room
- 35:00Speaker 6: working on another song that actually during those same hours,
- 35:09Speaker 6: Breezy and Nelly was in the room next door. So
- 35:13Speaker 6: we mixing this record and this beat with the low
- 35:17Speaker 6: end from the Look At Me Now, I guess whatever
- 35:21Speaker 6: they was doing, Chris Brown, I think he was playing
- 35:24Speaker 6: it for Nelly.
- 35:24Speaker 2: Okay.
- 35:25Speaker 6: And I don't know if Breezy Verse was on it yet.
- 35:30Speaker 6: I don't think anybody verse was on it yet. That
- 35:35Speaker 6: shit was rattling so fucking crazy through our room. It
- 35:40Speaker 6: was complicating our ability to hear the mix. We was
- 35:45Speaker 6: finalizing the EQ for the song we was mixing in
- 35:47Speaker 6: our session. I kind of went over there on some, yo,
- 35:50Speaker 6: y'all niggas need to turn that shit down a little bit.
- 35:52Speaker 6: But when I opened the door and I saw it
- 35:53Speaker 6: was Breezy and Nelly, I was like, oh shit, what
- 35:55Speaker 6: the fuck going on? What's good, bros? What's that shit
- 36:00Speaker 6: you was playing over there? So, Breezy playing it again.
- 36:05Speaker 6: And I think Nelly was supposed to be on the
- 36:08Speaker 6: song at the time. I don't think Wayne knew about
- 36:12Speaker 6: the song yet. And, um, Breezy was showing Nelly how
- 36:19Speaker 6: his rhyme was supposed to go. So that's when he
- 36:21Speaker 6: had the little speed rap part in it. And then
- 36:24Speaker 6: I was looking at Breezy and I just kind of
- 36:26Speaker 6: was like, you don't know what you're doing with that shit.
- 36:30Speaker 6: Speed rap, you don't know what you're doing. Let me
- 36:33Speaker 6: show you how to keep the dice rolling. Doing that
- 36:37Speaker 6: thing over there. Let me show you how to do that.
- 36:38Speaker 6: You don't know what you're doing. And when I said
- 36:41Speaker 6: that to him, he was like, what you just said?
- 36:43Speaker 6: And I said, you don't know what you're doing, my nigga.
- 36:45Speaker 6: Let me show you how to keep the dice rolling
- 36:46Speaker 6: when you're doing that thing over there, homie. And he
- 36:48Speaker 6: was like, yo, boss, I need you on the joint.
- 36:51Speaker 6: I need you to cut me off in my middle
- 36:54Speaker 6: of my speed rap shit and just black the fuck out.
- 36:59Speaker 6: The session that I was in next door turned into
- 37:01Speaker 6: that moment because I wanted to get the rhyme done
- 37:05Speaker 6: while we was together in the same building. So I
- 37:08Speaker 6: did the rhyme and I brought it back. And I
- 37:10Speaker 6: actually had a slowed down part towards the end. And
- 37:12Speaker 6: Breezy was like, you going too crazy to slow it down. Like,
- 37:17Speaker 6: please go back and fix that one part. Keep it
- 37:20Speaker 6: crazy all the way through. So I went back and
- 37:22Speaker 6: I made that adjustment and gave it to him and
- 37:24Speaker 6: that was it.
- 37:25Speaker 1: Damn.
- 37:25Speaker 6: I think that shit came out 2011, New Year's Eve
- 37:30Speaker 6: or New Year's Day. I think Funk Flex were all permitted.
- 37:34Speaker 6: And that's still in the club today, but... Yeah, the
- 37:38Speaker 6: shit went diamond last year.
- 37:41Speaker 2: Oh, damn. Yeah. Total. After all these years, it just
- 37:46Speaker 2: kept going, kept growing.
