2:08
Speaker 1: my my close two people. Everybody that's okay, it's okay.
2:12
Speaker 1: It's the two million on social media that we're talking about,
2:14
Speaker 1: you know, yea, yeah, alright, Brittany Grinder is home. Come
2:22
Speaker 1: yeah now now, I don't know, there's a lot of
2:27
Speaker 1: people that are kind of upset about it. A prisoner
2:31
Speaker 1: swap with Russian arms dealer Victor Bolt. They gave the
2:36
Speaker 1: Merchant of death, you know, one of one for one
2:39
Speaker 1: trade for Grinder. Now. Joe Biden tweeted, she's safe, she's
2:43
Speaker 1: on the plane, she's on the way home. He also
2:44
Speaker 1: look on TV couldn't wait to tweet. He looked like
2:48
Speaker 1: he always need a nap. I don't know what's going
2:50
Speaker 1: on at President. I could definitely tell he needs some energy.
2:53
Speaker 1: Bars and he's eight years old. I think he older
2:56
Speaker 1: than that. No, I tell you what they traded Britain
3:00
Speaker 1: grounding for the wolfing the vampire. So I were talking
3:04
Speaker 1: about that was that was a very interesting trade. He
3:09
Speaker 1: definitely killed, gave the merchant of death. He would kill somebody.
3:15
Speaker 1: Now we aren't talking about no little you know, a
3:17
Speaker 1: little glot, little guy. What's that man name? Again? He
3:21
Speaker 1: sounds like he to kill somebody. Facts will do. Okay.
3:28
Speaker 1: So a lot of people feel like it wasn't a
3:29
Speaker 1: fair trade. They're like, okay, it wasn't a fair trade.
3:32
Speaker 1: It was all for the US. But it was a
3:34
Speaker 1: w for you know, a black person for Vember. What
3:37
Speaker 1: do you think it was a tipping point though, Like
3:39
Speaker 1: what finally made him be like all right, we're gonna
3:41
Speaker 1: give you all the merchant of death? And because yeah,
3:46
Speaker 1: this was a media disaster slash nightmare. This was coverage
3:50
Speaker 1: everywhere and then you know, keep in mind, uh, she's
3:53
Speaker 1: a w NBA player that needed to play. A lot
3:56
Speaker 1: of w NBA players play in America and overseas because
3:59
Speaker 1: they don't make enough money in America on the w
4:01
Speaker 1: n B A. So my question is who's gonna go
4:04
Speaker 1: play for Russia facts. I almost felt like if she
4:16
Speaker 1: was not sent over to like the prison camp and
4:20
Speaker 1: she was just in like regular Russian jail or prison,
4:23
Speaker 1: I almost feel like she would still be there. When
4:25
Speaker 1: they started talking about all the homophobic things against her,
4:28
Speaker 1: all the racist things against her, that's when I think
4:31
Speaker 1: the US was like, we can't stand for this anytime,
4:35
Speaker 1: my opinion, anytime you throw in you know, the LGBTQ community,
4:39
Speaker 1: things seemed to be taken a little more seriously. Now
4:42
Speaker 1: we already know that racism exists all over the world,
4:45
Speaker 1: but I think when it got to that point, they
4:46
Speaker 1: was like, all right, hold on, we're gonna have to
4:48
Speaker 1: get to sit out, because that's just not a fair trade.
4:50
Speaker 1: That man is back over there selling a ks right now,
4:53
Speaker 1: probably stuff over there. And you guys know that Nike
4:58
Speaker 1: dropped Kyrie Irvan. He covers the Nike shoe logo with
5:01
Speaker 1: I Am Free, covering the swoosh logo and itching I
5:05
Speaker 1: am free, Thank you God, I Am on a patch
5:08
Speaker 1: of take after his break up with the Sneaker Giant.
5:11
Speaker 1: Anybody got any thoughts of concerns about Kyrie, probably why
5:15
Speaker 1: why are you doing that? I Am free? He was
5:17
Speaker 1: making eleven million dollars. What are you free from a
5:20
Speaker 1: year with Nike? What are you free from? What do
5:25
Speaker 1: you free just because you get paid millions of the
5:28
Speaker 1: go ahead n be heard? I guess they'd be sense
5:32
Speaker 1: from him? You want to be black? Is he want
5:36
Speaker 1: to be? You know what I mean? It's not always
5:39
Speaker 1: about the check. Now, Sometimes you get you get tired
5:45
Speaker 1: of being told to shut up and dribble. At some
5:47
Speaker 1: point you want to be a human with a voice,
5:49
Speaker 1: no matter what you do. That man is tired of
5:51
Speaker 1: hearing shut up and dribble. Well, I think it's after
5:55
Speaker 1: the fact when you make the money. When you make
5:56
Speaker 1: the money, then then then you want to be free.
5:59
Speaker 1: Everybody wants to be free after they have made all
6:01
Speaker 1: the money. Now, why can't you want saying all this stuff?
6:05
Speaker 1: Ten years ago he had that money, yet he got
6:08
Speaker 1: the money now. I think Kenya always been saying the
6:11
Speaker 1: same thing. It's just an increment. And if we put
6:13
Speaker 1: it all together all together about what he's been saying,
6:17
Speaker 1: it'll all come together. You know, he just got a
6:19
Speaker 1: little spets. He does a bad at the setup. He
6:24
Speaker 1: just kind of messed up. But he actulates himself in
6:26
Speaker 1: it comes together. So I'm coming together lots money. It's
6:32
Speaker 1: time for love versus money. It loves. In the minute
6:37
Speaker 1: I met you, baby, I knew I wanted to manage
6:40
Speaker 1: the love of money. Money. It's love versus money. They
6:45
Speaker 1: said you can't put a price tag on love. I
6:47
Speaker 1: love on the ball or Alert show come up. We
6:54
Speaker 1: got every rosy together. That you're dating a boss, that
7:00
Speaker 1: this boss that you've seen that's fine? Is that really
7:03
Speaker 1: what kind of attracted you to him? To say, no,
7:05
Speaker 1: that's the guy for me? Yeah, it's I think it's
7:08
Speaker 1: the boss in him. I just think he's like, you know,
7:11
Speaker 1: I like guys who lead, So when you're a leader,
7:14
Speaker 1: you can step to me, you know. But again, when
7:17
Speaker 1: it comes down to Ross, like Ross's type a person
7:19
Speaker 1: who you look at and you just admire, you're inspired by,
7:23
Speaker 1: Like I want to do what you're doing, will teach me.
7:25
Speaker 1: So in the back end, I'm actually a student of
7:27
Speaker 1: the game as well. So I mean, yeah, if you
7:31
Speaker 1: want to say that, that's just what it is. It's official. Well,
7:34
Speaker 1: Ross is in it for the love. I'm I'm assuming
7:38
Speaker 1: and pretty V will be in it for says she's
7:46
Speaker 1: a girl. If I'm not mistaken. I feel like I
7:48
Speaker 1: had been seeing her literally has been putting her in
7:51
Speaker 1: position series because you know, Ross is a romantic and
7:54
Speaker 1: I think it's the first time has a way with women.
7:56
Speaker 1: You know, it's pretty. I think Ross really likes her.
7:59
Speaker 1: He does this is cool. I think he's I think
8:08
Speaker 1: he styled you know, girl, man, it looks like he
8:12
Speaker 1: can old baby. You know, I just love you guys
8:18
Speaker 1: playing apples, you know what I'm saying, come to the
8:21
Speaker 1: mansion all together. Man. I think Pretty V is smart enough,
8:24
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna kicking to y'all to get y'all, but
8:26
Speaker 1: I think she's smart enough to know that this could
8:28
Speaker 1: potentially be loved. But right now, this is a good business.
8:32
Speaker 1: Ship busness ship, business ship. I agree with ship. I'm
8:38
Speaker 1: agree with you Ferrari. I don't agree. I think that
8:41
Speaker 1: they are genuinely interested in each other, because so you
8:43
Speaker 1: think both of them are there for the love. Yeah,
8:46
Speaker 1: for the interest. You don't hear that they just got
8:48
Speaker 1: together all right? Bullshit? Let me just say this. I
8:56
Speaker 1: really thought, I really thought Pretty he would. No, they're
9:00
Speaker 1: not a thing. We we had confirmed and he confirmed
9:08
Speaker 1: one a thing. Okay, So I think they are genuinely
9:10
Speaker 1: interested in each other. I think there are tons of
9:13
Speaker 1: people that pretty v could get with if it was
9:15
Speaker 1: just a business situation, Like I don't think it would
9:18
Speaker 1: have to be Rick Ross. Like. I think they answered
9:20
Speaker 1: each other like that's that stuff, you know. I pictured
9:31
Speaker 1: Rick Ross with like a say what it is? Woman?
9:37
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, larger woman, you're like like
9:42
Speaker 1: a blood wise and horse type woman like that boy said.
9:46
Speaker 1: But woman, you know, y'all just not saying that. Y'all
9:53
Speaker 1: think you O. I really think that they both like
10:01
Speaker 1: each other. However, I think that attractive to him too.
10:08
Speaker 1: But I don't know, man, you know what, I don't know.
10:10
Speaker 1: I think they're attract each other. I didn't say that.
10:15
Speaker 1: I just said, pretty, you gotta come on the show.

Speaker 1: We did it during the pandemic. You gott we're gonna

Speaker 1: rappers be later outside? Really is on time? All right?
11:25
Speaker 1: What are you sober from? We know what we'd um
11:30
Speaker 1: well when Molly was out X pills, egs, we liquor cigarettes? Um,
11:44
Speaker 1: what am I leaving out at a roll? Perko said.
11:49
Speaker 1: And you would do these things all together sometimes too, right, Yes,
11:52
Speaker 1: damn yeah. It was a combination, you know what I mean.
11:56
Speaker 1: Whatever day I was feeling like, you know what suited
12:00
Speaker 1: the day of the moment, you know what I mean,
12:02
Speaker 1: I would actually indulge, and um that was just so
12:06
Speaker 1: I would not not all of them like these, I
12:09
Speaker 1: kind of like was trading vices, like you know, when
12:13
Speaker 1: Molly was out, that was advice for me. Then like
12:17
Speaker 1: I'll take zenage to sleep, you know what I mean.
12:19
Speaker 1: Then when they started playing around with the Molly too
12:22
Speaker 1: much and it started like changing color, had tan, you know,
12:25
Speaker 1: they had tan, then they had pink and they had blue.
12:27
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, she looked like fruity peers. I'm good.
12:30
Speaker 1: So then we switched to you know, perks, you know
12:34
Speaker 1: what I mean. Then we switched to adderall you see
12:38
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But and so so when Molly was done,
12:42
Speaker 1: because niggas really started doing ice and ship if I
12:45
Speaker 1: was like, I don't really really funk with meth and
12:46
Speaker 1: ship like that, so you know what I mean. So
12:48
Speaker 1: it was it was almost like I was rolling with
12:52
Speaker 1: the times on what was new and popular with drugs,
12:56
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And we used to put
12:57
Speaker 1: Molly in lean you know what I mean, on sprinkling
13:01
Speaker 1: on in the lean cup and like in the different
13:04
Speaker 1: cocktails of it. How did it affect your performance your
13:07
Speaker 1: personal life? It did my performance pretty good. Um, Like
13:13
Speaker 1: it sounds crazy, but like I could put the mike
13:17
Speaker 1: in my hand, you wouldn't know I was on anything,
13:20
Speaker 1: but after the show, I wouldn't want to, like I
13:23
Speaker 1: wouldn't do interviews, or I wouldn't make it to interviews,
13:26
Speaker 1: or I'll be late or or like. And my social
13:31
Speaker 1: life was kind of if I'm high, you could probably
13:36
Speaker 1: be like d didn't get drove a tripping lat night,
13:38
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. As opposed to me being
13:41
Speaker 1: cool and calm, I probably in the beginning of it,
13:45
Speaker 1: like in the beginning of it, when I'm waiting for
13:46
Speaker 1: it to kick in, but by the time to kick in,
13:49
Speaker 1: it's I'm all over the place. So it was it
13:51
Speaker 1: was kind of like ending out. But the majority of
13:54
Speaker 1: the important things I would miss. Do you feel like
13:56
Speaker 1: your career would be a lot further if you were sober,
14:00
Speaker 1: then like maybe you're in a room full of people
14:02
Speaker 1: that you should have been talking to, should have been
14:04
Speaker 1: building a relationship with, and that was your one time
14:07
Speaker 1: in the room, but you were so high that you
14:09
Speaker 1: couldn't make that connection any of times. Yeah, Like I,
14:13
Speaker 1: like I said, it's just would count it. When it
14:16
Speaker 1: count counting, I would be the most high. But and
14:20
Speaker 1: then like it wasn't that I would do it on purpose.
14:23
Speaker 1: It was my habit just showing up, you know what
14:26
Speaker 1: I mean. I would want to get HT so bad
14:27
Speaker 1: this day, you know, or I'll already be high, or
14:31
Speaker 1: I'll be not had like a week long high time,
14:35
Speaker 1: and by the time the money get there, I need
14:38
Speaker 1: that to sleep, so I Can't'm not available, you know
14:41
Speaker 1: what I mean. So it showed up in different ways,
14:43
Speaker 1: and I think that that's what I really like go
14:47
Speaker 1: around and talk about like it's always the drug. You
14:53
Speaker 1: think you've got control over it until it shows up,
14:56
Speaker 1: and it's just in that one day, don't seem that
14:58
Speaker 1: bad until the year goo is by in its thirty
15:01
Speaker 1: of those days. This sounds very expensive as well, because
15:07
Speaker 1: because you're making money, you're young droe obviously, and how
15:10
Speaker 1: much of how much like was your income dedicated to
15:15
Speaker 1: purchasing a month I always spend on drugs with I
15:18
Speaker 1: would say like between day, damn what that's somebody mortgage
15:27
Speaker 1: between five and I'm not actually and taking that. This
15:32
Speaker 1: is what it is what it takes to, you know,
15:34
Speaker 1: all the girls, all the guys, you know, because it's
15:38
Speaker 1: free around me just digging the bag and I think
15:40
Speaker 1: I'm I'm trying to I'm looking for people to love
15:44
Speaker 1: on me. I'm looking for validation. I'm looking for girls
15:47
Speaker 1: to be okay, you know what I mean. I don't
15:50
Speaker 1: want anybody to leave at this point, like you know
15:52
Speaker 1: what I mean, I want I want you to come
15:54
Speaker 1: into my world. So I'm kind of like buying you.
15:56
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. I'm selling this image and
15:59
Speaker 1: I'm and I'm wrapping about it in my lyrics and
16:01
Speaker 1: people seeing me and are you high right now? I'm like, yeah,

16:06
Speaker 1: on me? I got this on me. I got that
16:07
Speaker 1: on me, you know what I'm saying. So it's almost
16:09
Speaker 1: like I was lonely trying to, you know, see what
16:14
Speaker 1: everybody was doing that day, and I want everybody to
16:16

16:28
Speaker 1: music of music? What made you decide to stop? Um?
16:37
Speaker 1: I guess the repeat? It was always something in me.
16:40
Speaker 1: You know. I used to sit around because I used
16:43
Speaker 1: to be really really on drugs, really bad in the beginning,
16:48
Speaker 1: and we used to be out in the streets and
16:50
Speaker 1: I used to tell people, you know, they I used

17:30
Speaker 1: me too, you know, one day, but it just never
17:33
Speaker 1: it just was a grip on me so tight. When
17:36
Speaker 1: I felt like I had control, it was like, well
17:38
Speaker 1: the drug was like, well no, this is actually serious
17:41
Speaker 1: to what you think. You cannot quit and when you say,

17:47
Speaker 1: a week or two, but you'll be back, you know
17:49
Speaker 1: what I mean. And I used to be like and
17:52

18:10
Speaker 1: have to if you feel is in a plastic bag
18:13
Speaker 1: or you know what I'm saying, And it's just and
18:14
Speaker 1: it's calling me like that. So my body had done
18:16
Speaker 1: got used to it. And then like so and then
18:21
Speaker 1: like you know, my I think me praying to me
18:23
Speaker 1: and close like starting out in the church, you know
18:25
Speaker 1: what I mean, what my mama always said, and you
18:28
Speaker 1: know what people would say, a little spatter man, you
18:30
Speaker 1: can be certainly you can do this, and you can
18:33
Speaker 1: do that. And then like, um, well this what made
18:37
Speaker 1: me really stop when my child came in the house,
18:42
Speaker 1: how something, you know what I mean. I was like, damn,
18:44
Speaker 1: my little girl you know, first it was sweet, you're
18:47
Speaker 1: feeling me, but you know, she grew up. My baby
18:51
Speaker 1: mama really didn't let me see it like that. I
18:53
Speaker 1: got three kids and three different baby mamas, so you
18:57
Speaker 1: know what I mean. The downside of that is we're
19:00
Speaker 1: not in the same home, you know what I mean.
19:02
Speaker 1: And and I'm still running around being a horror, you
19:06
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So it's I don't have that
19:09
Speaker 1: one on one daddy daughter thing, which i'm their monetary wise,
19:14
Speaker 1: but actually being the father and actually seeing this, you
19:17
Speaker 1: know what I mean, I kind of like dropped the
19:20
Speaker 1: ball on that with my you know, choice of how
19:25
Speaker 1: I approach women in the relationships that I wanted, you
19:28
Speaker 1: know what I mean, So and and and and when
19:31
Speaker 1: I say that, I take my piece of the blame,
19:34
Speaker 1: you know what I mean for what you know, my actions.
19:37
Speaker 1: But it was a lot of things that my baby
19:38
Speaker 1: mama did to her. You know, you can't see her
19:40
Speaker 1: or you know what I mean, this and that, but
19:42
Speaker 1: most for the most part, we split it in half.
19:45
Speaker 1: So by the time my little girl showed up and
19:49
Speaker 1: I had witnessed this, she was on weed. I was like,
19:51
Speaker 1: oh I told about it. I was like, well, you know,
19:53
Speaker 1: our family really funked up on this stuff, like it
19:56
Speaker 1: can get out of hand, you know what I mean.
19:58
Speaker 1: So she really did listen. So she went on out
20:00
Speaker 1: into the world. And man, when she came back and
20:05
Speaker 1: I went out and saw her, I was like, damn.
20:08
Speaker 1: So she picked up the phone. She was like, Dad,
20:10
Speaker 1: I don't look the same, so don't don't cry when
20:12
Speaker 1: you walk up on me. I'm like, god, damn. And
20:14
Speaker 1: I go see her. Man, I just felt on my
20:17
Speaker 1: knees and I was like, baby, just getting the car,
20:19
Speaker 1: We're gonna go see about this ship, you know what
20:21
Speaker 1: I'm saying, And like that moment is the moment when
20:24
Speaker 1: you I was. I was. I was booking it on
20:29
Speaker 1: the way in the car. I was already I was
20:31
Speaker 1: filling out the stuff I feel. I was like, we're
20:34
Speaker 1: gonna go together, you know what I'm saying, And this
20:36
Speaker 1: HeiG gonna go. She was like yeah, So she she
20:39
Speaker 1: was really out of her mind. I'm talking out literally,
20:42
Speaker 1: no shoes on, hands, dirty feet, dirty you fear me,
20:46
Speaker 1: part me old man, beer kins, baggy is all that
20:50
Speaker 1: ship was like. It was like I've seen out of
20:52
Speaker 1: a movie. And I was like, lord, I know you
20:54
Speaker 1: ain't just feed me this and I had to eat it,
20:57
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And so I was like, yeah,
21:00
Speaker 1: this is for me. I had tried a little bit
21:03
Speaker 1: in the past. Tip had tried to. Tip was like, Bro,
21:06
Speaker 1: we gotta you know, because we started out together, you
21:09
Speaker 1: know what I mean. And Tip, y'all used to be like, bro,
21:11
Speaker 1: you need to go get some help. I ain't going
21:13
Speaker 1: without you because we we started, you know, in that
21:16
Speaker 1: kind of game. But Tip actually he kind of like
21:21
Speaker 1: he did, he kind of like went big dog and
21:23
Speaker 1: just was like, but this's how you do it. Like,
21:25
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna have to cut you off if you
21:27
Speaker 1: don't get yourself together in your head because you were
21:30
Speaker 1: so close you're feeling me. I can't get straight if
21:33
Speaker 1: you're not, you know what I mean. So if we
21:34
Speaker 1: ain't on the same page, we're gonna have you know,
21:36
Speaker 1: we ain't gonna leave each other. But if I can't
21:39
Speaker 1: convince you that help yourself, I have to go ahead
21:41
Speaker 1: and help myself and maybe I can come back for you.
21:44
Speaker 1: But you know, so that that was how it went
21:47
Speaker 1: with me and him. So I was there one time
21:50
Speaker 1: and then I was sitting there and we was getting
21:52
Speaker 1: all this money and I heard these people talking about things.
21:55
Speaker 1: He not the gottish kid, and I was like, well,
21:56
Speaker 1: I ain't that kind of junkie, you know what I mean, celebrity.
21:59
Speaker 1: We had cars and you know, we're running faring out
22:01
Speaker 1: this dreary, all these women like me, and it was
22:04
Speaker 1: just it was steady creeping. It was just walking me down.
22:07
Speaker 1: And it walked me all the way down to zero dollars,
22:10
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Yeah, yeah, it walked me
22:14
Speaker 1: all the way down to zero dollars. And I think
22:16
Speaker 1: God was like, now what you know what I mean?
22:19
Speaker 1: And I was like, I stopped for a second, you know,
22:22
Speaker 1: get myself back. And then you know, I think I
22:24
Speaker 1: went to breakfast club and I got mack and it
22:27
Speaker 1: was called and I was doing the drill revamp thing.
22:30
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I started doing you know
22:31
Speaker 1: a little bit better, you know what I mean, And
22:33
Speaker 1: um um, I guess God was just still blessing me
22:37
Speaker 1: with hits and stuff, you know what I mean. You
22:40
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I would go down and come
22:43
Speaker 1: back up, and go down and come back up, you
22:44
Speaker 1: know what I mean. But my my little girl. And
22:46
Speaker 1: then I was like Okay, I gotta stop everything because
22:49
Speaker 1: I still was doing weed and drinking you know, champagne,
22:52
Speaker 1: and and sometimes I would stop weed, you know what
22:54
Speaker 1: I mean. And sometimes and I was just in interviews
22:57
Speaker 1: just lying like a mother, like you clean, Like yeah,
23:00
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But I thought my clean
23:02
Speaker 1: was it was normal to smoke weed, it was normal
23:05
Speaker 1: to have a drink or two, you know what I mean.
23:07
Speaker 1: It was normal. So when they asked me, was I clean?
23:10
Speaker 1: I was like yeah, And for the most part at
23:12
Speaker 1: that time, that's what I considered clean. You feel me.
23:15
Speaker 1: But the the realization of what I was trying to
23:19
Speaker 1: you know, I was trying to figure I was trying
23:21
Speaker 1: to figure out myself what is clean to me? You
23:24
Speaker 1: feel me? And I thought I was like, that was
23:26
Speaker 1: what was clean to me. And then I when I
23:27
Speaker 1: saw my daughter on that and where she was headed,
23:30
Speaker 1: I said, no, clean is everything, you know what I mean?
23:34
Speaker 1: I could. I remember talking to Gucci and he was
23:36
Speaker 1: telling me, man, you need to get all the way
23:38
Speaker 1: across the board clean, and I just couldn't understand, you know,
23:42
Speaker 1: letting it go, all of it. I was like, like
23:45
Speaker 1: boring after that, you know what I'm saying I ain't
23:47
Speaker 1: even gonna be the same person, and I was scared
23:49
Speaker 1: to be like normal. I was scared to be better,
23:52
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And I really feared that,
23:55
Speaker 1: Like I really was, like my music ain't gonna be
23:57
Speaker 1: the same. I ain't gonna stand in the club with
24:00
Speaker 1: like this bit a't gonna like me and this thing
24:01
Speaker 1: ain't gonna be fun. I'm like, I'm gonna lose all
24:03
Speaker 1: these people, and like none of that ship really mattered
24:07
Speaker 1: when I when I saw my daughter like that, I
24:09
Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna go ahead and be all the
24:11
Speaker 1: way clean. So now she's sober and still, yeah, she's
24:15
Speaker 1: still I just had to go ahead of her and
24:17
Speaker 1: pray to God, like that's why I was when we
24:19
Speaker 1: did the interview, I was asking for prayer, like because
24:22
Speaker 1: I don't know people people talk about me so bad
24:26
Speaker 1: on on social media? What draw ahead? And why he
24:30
Speaker 1: ain't and you know, and she and she always mentioned
24:32
Speaker 1: my name, like my dad is this person? They be
24:34
Speaker 1: like why the fun you feel me? And now if
24:36
Speaker 1: I if I could make that choice for it, I
24:38
Speaker 1: would most definitely snap my finger. And she's off of it,
24:42
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I can't control her going
24:45
Speaker 1: out doing drugs, and she has to want, she has
24:48
Speaker 1: to get to help for them to help her. I mean,
24:51
Speaker 1: I think you definitely said a couple of valuable, super
24:54
Speaker 1: valuable things, and that I think a lot of people
24:55
Speaker 1: assumed that the relationship between you and t I fell
24:59
Speaker 1: off on a negative note. What you're saying is no,
25:02
Speaker 1: t I love me enough and loves himself enough to say, hey,
25:07
Speaker 1: I'm here for you. I'm never leaving you. But if
25:08
Speaker 1: you don't make a decision to be a better person,
25:11
Speaker 1: I have to move on. And you had to fast
25:13
Speaker 1: forward show that same type of love to your own child. Um,
25:19
Speaker 1: I'm working like seventeen months ago, yeah, very fresh. I
25:26
Speaker 1: was out at metro Boomings released party of people was
25:31
Speaker 1: just telling me, I mean, you a legend, don't let
25:33
Speaker 1: nobody tell you different, And three people said the same
25:35
Speaker 1: exact thing. I was like, it's God talking to me.
25:38
Speaker 1: He right, But but I felt so out of place.
25:42
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying because I'm used to and
25:43
Speaker 1: I was. I was denying blunting people handing my like nahem,
25:49
Speaker 1: those environments, it's it's it's some justice dopeest lyricists ever.
25:56
Speaker 1: Bro The word play with the with the goddamn colors
25:59
Speaker 1: and damn ship. You definitely have a support system behind you.
26:04
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, when Ry and I interviewed you
26:07
Speaker 1: on our radio show and we ask for people to
26:10
Speaker 1: call in, there were people calling in well after the show,
26:13
Speaker 1: Like there were callers that we could not play on
26:15
Speaker 1: air because we were already off air. But people were
26:18
Speaker 1: constantly calling because they want you to know that you
26:22
Speaker 1: are loved. Even though hip hop may look different right now,
26:25
Speaker 1: even though some some of the younger kids coming up
26:28
Speaker 1: may not show a lot of respect to the O
26:29
Speaker 1: G s, Like, you got millions of people that support you,
26:32
Speaker 1: not even just because of your music, but because of
26:34
Speaker 1: who you are. I think it's very easy to see
26:36
Speaker 1: that you are a person full of good energy. You've
26:39
Speaker 1: got good light. What I want to ask now, though,
26:41
Speaker 1: is like what is your intention with talking about sobriety
26:46
Speaker 1: right now? Like what do you want to get out
26:48
Speaker 1: of talking to millions of people about your sobriety? I mean,
26:52
Speaker 1: like hope for the most important, Like I want to
26:55
Speaker 1: actually give out hope, and um, I want to just
26:59
Speaker 1: give my story to too, like be of service. You
27:02
Speaker 1: know what I mean, because I believe. I didn't believe
27:05
Speaker 1: I was gonna change, to be serious, I thought I
27:08
Speaker 1: was gonna always do something. I was like because when
27:11
Speaker 1: I got to rehab, she was like, so, what are
27:13
Speaker 1: you gonna what are you not gonna stop doing? I
27:15
Speaker 1: was like, well, i' gonna spoke. We didn't drink, and
27:16
Speaker 1: when I got there, I was like, yeah, I'm just
27:19
Speaker 1: chilling everything, you know what I mean. So and it's
27:21
Speaker 1: and it's been cool. So I just want to be
27:23
Speaker 1: able to help a lot of my a lot of
27:26
Speaker 1: young black men that think that doing drugs and fitting
27:31
Speaker 1: in it's cool, you know what I mean, It's not
27:34
Speaker 1: who like And then I'm glad to be walk away
27:36
Speaker 1: with my health still, you know, like because it's a
27:39
Speaker 1: lot of us, you know, when we do these things,
27:42
Speaker 1: were just thinking we're just doing it. We don't feel
27:44
Speaker 1: it then, you know what I mean. But when we
27:46
Speaker 1: get older, you know, those organs started kicking out and
27:49
Speaker 1: that drinking every night and smoking all the time, and
27:52
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, if you if you
27:54
Speaker 1: can make it out with your health, you know what
27:56
Speaker 1: I mean, don't don't push it until you feel me
27:59
Speaker 1: until the doctor say, well, you're gonna have to do this,
28:02
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I want to just
28:04
Speaker 1: get the story out as a part of your sobriety.
28:06
Speaker 1: Do you are you going back to so many people
28:08
Speaker 1: that you Yeah, I'm like always like if I see you,
28:13
Speaker 1: almost definitely gonna make it right. Or if I'm asked
28:15
Speaker 1: a question, I'm definitely holding holding accountability for my actions.
28:20
Speaker 1: That goes for past relationships or you know what I mean,
28:24
Speaker 1: Like you know, somebody asked me a question about um
28:27
Speaker 1: when me and Fantasias dated, and I had to address
28:32
Speaker 1: that and telling that, you know, I was drugged up
28:35
Speaker 1: and high and I wasn't ready for a strong woman
28:38
Speaker 1: like that in my life, and like you know, and
28:40
Speaker 1: then I know, I know the beautiful person, you know
28:44
Speaker 1: what I mean, just I wasn't ready for I wasn't
28:47
Speaker 1: man enough to be in a position like with a
28:49
Speaker 1: strong woman like that, you know what I mean. And
28:51
Speaker 1: I can take accountability for that, like the my Tip relationship,
28:57
Speaker 1: you know what I mean a lot of things that
28:59
Speaker 1: he's always drop. I'm called drop and I used to
29:02
Speaker 1: just be somewhere in a spot just hies I can
29:06
Speaker 1: be you know what I mean, And I know he
29:07
Speaker 1: probably wouldn't wanted me to show up to some of
29:09
Speaker 1: these places, and you know what I'm saying, and like
29:12
Speaker 1: what throwing out of here? You know what I'm saying,
29:16
Speaker 1: Joe and nine or Joe and Folk seeding somewhere, you
29:18
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying that, And I just I don't
29:20
Speaker 1: know why I used to run. I used to like searching.
29:25
Speaker 1: I was searching for something. I don't know what it
29:28
Speaker 1: was because right now I'm looking from looking at it
29:30
Speaker 1: from right here I was I'm thinking myself, like what
29:33
Speaker 1: the hell was I looking for? And I think I
29:35
Speaker 1: was just trying to or he was running from so
29:37
Speaker 1: I was running for something, you know what I mean.
29:39
Speaker 1: Like I used to be in the room with big wigs,
29:42
Speaker 1: you know, and I'll do what I gotta do, wrap
29:44
Speaker 1: real good and get out of there. You know. I'll
29:46
Speaker 1: do songs with Jeezy, I'll do songs with for Rell,
29:50
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But then once once it's over,
29:52
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I got that done. Now I'm
29:54
Speaker 1: about to go to the hood. And I don't know
29:57
Speaker 1: what kept drawing me to that, And I think that
30:00
Speaker 1: you know it was It's almost like you had impostor syndrome,
30:03
Speaker 1: Like you just felt like maybe you were more comfortable
30:06
Speaker 1: in the hood because that was your environment, that's where
30:07
Speaker 1: you came from. But then you were around super successful
30:11
Speaker 1: people and you probably as much as you knew you
30:13
Speaker 1: were talented enough to be in that room, you may
30:16
Speaker 1: not have felt like confident, like I belong in this room.
30:19
Speaker 1: So let me go back to what I know that
30:21
Speaker 1: was perfectly put. So when the last time you talked
30:23
Speaker 1: to Tip Um, I was on the phone. I was
30:29
Speaker 1: on a FaceTime CALLO throwed off one and when I
30:33
Speaker 1: FaceTime him, I was just telling him about the show,
30:36
Speaker 1: and then he just turned the phone and then Mentip
30:38
Speaker 1: got on the phone together and he was like, Hey,
30:41
Speaker 1: I've seen you on um a podcast and he was talking.
30:45
Speaker 1: He was like, man, it's some good ship if you
30:47
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, And I was, and we just
30:49
Speaker 1: went to reminiscing and talking whatever, and then like we
30:52
Speaker 1: just got off the phone. But for the most part,
30:55
Speaker 1: we haven't sat down and at the brother conversation. And
30:59
Speaker 1: I I really want to do that with without you know, UM,
31:04
Speaker 1: any anybody. Yeah, because we we we really got like
31:10
Speaker 1: over twenty years, you know, we're knowing each other. He's
31:13
Speaker 1: always been a big like a big brother, like you
31:16
Speaker 1: know what I mean. I'm older, but he always been
31:18
Speaker 1: like a big brother, you know what I mean to me,
31:20
Speaker 1: and gave me guidance and talk to me, you know,
31:23
Speaker 1: gave me like a lot of respect, you know what
31:25
Speaker 1: I mean. And and actually you know, turned me onto
31:28
Speaker 1: my first million bucks, you know what I'm saying. And
31:30
Speaker 1: now I'm always in debt to him, you know what
31:32
Speaker 1: I mean. So it's once I once we do collap
31:35
Speaker 1: and sit back down, I know we can get through.
31:37
Speaker 1: It's like any any any brother situation, you know what
31:40
Speaker 1: I mean, any family situation, we can work it out. Okay,
31:44
Speaker 1: So what new music you got coming up? Uh? I
31:47
Speaker 1: just dropped Wednesday. It's a song called run Out of Time.
31:51
Speaker 1: I actually was. It's a trilogy. It's three or three.
31:55
Speaker 1: The run out of Time is like um us as
31:58
Speaker 1: young black men, we we we don't do things into
32:02
Speaker 1: it's too late, you know. Um perfect example, the Mego situation,
32:08
Speaker 1: you know whatever they was going through now shot of Dead.
32:11
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I bet they wish that
32:13
Speaker 1: they worked that out before that happened. And we should
32:16
Speaker 1: take the initiative to do these things like men. You know,
32:20
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, like, let's get this out of the way, bro,
32:21
Speaker 1: because we too, we too, we then came up in
32:24
Speaker 1: the same industry together. Let's work this out and you know,
32:27
Speaker 1: and then that's that goes for like parents, if you
32:30
Speaker 1: if you're into it with your parents or or sibling
32:33
Speaker 1: or you know what I mean, just just men these things, man,
32:36
Speaker 1: before you run out of time, you know what I mean,
32:38
Speaker 1: put these guns down, and you know what I mean.
32:40
Speaker 1: So I put the video out. I actually wrapped about
