  Speaker 2: planning on speaking about a few things, but then we
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: had like an hour long conversation that kind of shifted
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: the conversation. I think we're going we got this is
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: this is gonna be a good one. So O May
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: and Chris Gotti, if you're not familiar, so Murder inc
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: Ran the music industry in the early two thousand when
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: I was in prep school in high school, I couldn't
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: turn on MTV of BT without Jaul shan t like
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: it was crazy.
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: They destroyed it.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: So so yeah, so you might know obviously Jaul, but
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Chris Gotti was one of the founding members.
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, me and my brother, you know IRV Gotti boy,
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: So this is Irv's baby.
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: I'm the uncle to Murder.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: So yeah, so heavy in the music business. But we're
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: gonna talk about a lot of other things outside of music,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: just business in general, because obviously this is a business podcast,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: so we want to quip you guys with all of
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: the different.
• 3:04
  Speaker 6: Tools that you need.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: So before we start, I want to tell a story
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: how we actually met because networking is powerful, right, that's.
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: Right, relationships.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So Chris, he does a lot of different things, right,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: He was a music exact, he ran a construction company,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: really invests in real estate. And another thing that he
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: does is he's in the financial services industry. So anybody
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: that listens to the podcast, you know my financial advisor.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: So long story short, we got introduced through a mutual
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: colleague and he's like you ever heard of Chris Gotti.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, of course he's I think you guys
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: should be I might be able to work together. So
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: we were I don't even know if you remember this,
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: but I have like an impeccable memory. So we were
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: in LA at Greystone, right, a nice club, Greystone fact,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: that's crazy, that's crazy. So we was in Graystone, me
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: my man Mike, Mike was Scutt and so another one
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: of our friends, DJ suss One.
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we're from the same area.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: So sus was DJing that night, and so we were
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: in like the v I P area, right, So Chris
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: was there, and I introduced myself to Chris.
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: I'm telling him, He's like, yeah, cool.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: So we exchanged numbers and then when we got back
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: to New York, we actually met in the office and
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: just a super humble dude, Like you can kind of
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: just tell somebody's energy when you meet him. And that's
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: the first thing that I, I, you know, I noticed,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: is that it just real humble and just you know,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: just you could kind of feel like that energy of
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: just organic and just just a good dude. So but
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: that night was crazy though, because Rihanna was definitely there.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: I remember, and should.
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: I tell that story.
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: Tell this is a real one. So so my man Mike,
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: my man.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Mike is there and I'm telling him. Club's closed at
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: like two o'clock. In LA, they'll close early. So we're
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: from the New York. Club's closed like four thirty, right four,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: So it's like one thirty. The club is about to close,
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: and the VIP section is like real small. So we're
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: in there. We're right next to Chris and like three
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: feet away, I see Rihanna comes with her people. So
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: I'm like yo, I'm like yo, Mike, that's Rihanna right there.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: He's like, let's not Rihanna. I'm looking right at her
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: like that, I see Rihanna, she's right there.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: Facts.
• 5:29
  Speaker 6: So so he told he told Sus.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: So Sus obviously knows that. So Sus walks up to it.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Like so he's in Suss like the introduced me to Rihanna.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: It's us kind of like ignored him. So Sus talked
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: to her. So Mike tell me like, yo, get your
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: camera ready. I'm like, no, don't do that.
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: Don't do it, bro, do it.
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: Don't do it, brother, I get your camera.
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: So he walked up to her and I'm staying like
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: five people because I don't want to keep and he's like, yo,
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: he starts saying, He's like, you know, I get a picture,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: and you know the way she looked at was so
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: so violently disrespectful.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: It's the island girl that maybe.
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: The picture never got took for.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Shout out to Rihanna, shout out to shout she's doing big.
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: She's blowing up right now. I think millions.
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, don't worry about the music. Fenty is going to
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: take it out of this world. Shout out. Shout out to.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: Jay Brown too. That's where it helps. Yeah, definitely, incredible
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: moves they make.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: So all right, so we're gonna jump right into it. So,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: like I said, my man Chris Ran, they murder ain't random.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: I can't really if you're not old enough to fully understand,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: it's half for me to actually say how big that
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: they were. But you were telling me before, like you
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: had like a number one song on the radio or
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: something like that for like twenty weeks.
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: Not No, it's not just one song. It was multiple songs.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: So you know, a lot of the misconceptions they just
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: think it was murder ink. But the reality IRV as
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: a producer who was one of the Biggs producers, if
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: not the biggest at that time, and we produced for
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: everybody the industry. We literally produced for the industry. IRV
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: was looked at it as the fixer. So if you wasn't
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: selling records, we called IRV gotti, let me get a
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: single or something, and next thing you know, you sold
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: some records. So we was I believe it's forty eight
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: weeks out of fifty two weeks at number one with multiple.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Artists outside what you said, forty eight weeks out of
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: fifty two weeks in a.
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: Year, that's a different type of run.
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: Murder ain't had a song.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: Imagine, imagine you do that, like you could understand how
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: powerful we were, or just from that saying that, like
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: every record exect, every label wanted to do business with
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: you because you was that hot. You're on the Billboard
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: charts every week and it's your music, your sound, like man,
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: it was. It was a great time. Thirty million more
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: than that now but yeah, you know who's counting, so yeah,
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: so all right, but over forty million. But before the
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: music industry started, you actually you ran a construction company.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Yes, so can we talk about that, because that to
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: me was real interesting where you told me that you
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: were a millionaire before you got into music.
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that was me and my sister Tina.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: You know, we found a general contractor actually did demolition,
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: and we wanted to do all of the building side
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: of it, not the demo part, and cut a deal
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: Ken Frolick Gateway Demolition. That was the name of the
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: company that's still existing. They are still out there. And
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: he cut a deal and we was able to bond
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: these jobs. So if you didn't understand what I mean
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: why you need to be bonded because you have to
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: have the money for the job in case something goes wrong.
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: So if the job is five million dollars, you had
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: to have five million dollars you know, to cover that
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: job or a bond they would covered for you. And
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: had to have the you know, all the assets that
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: you might need to acquire the bond for you. And
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: we didn't have it at the time, and you know,
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: cut the deal and we went on a nice little
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: run with construction.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: While you were doing a construction though, right, So you're
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: you learned a bunch of trades, right, and pretty much
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: did everything everything.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: I tell I like to tell everyone, I built everything,
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: but a bridge, right, think about that. I built high rises, buildings,
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: I did streets, you know, the roads and highways, parks.
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: I mean, there's nothing I really didn't do from a
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: construction standpoint. And we did the concrete side, which is
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: so if you think of a from a dollar standpoint,
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: if if there was a job to build a building,
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: the biggest part of that job is the concrete, right,
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: That's the foundation, that's all the walls, that's everything going
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: up the floors. And that's what we did as a
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: black owned company. It was crazy, all self taught, all
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: self taught, and everything self taught because you all right,
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: so you still didn't go to school. So that's a
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: big deal for me, Like I always throw that out
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: there because I let everyone know you could do it right.
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: You don't have to go to school to learn. You
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: could learn on your own, but you got to have
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: the will to learn.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: And I did definitely have to be glad you said
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: that because we actually had an episode we talked about college,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: and more and more people are saying, like, it's college
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: worth it, right, So we're not discourage anybody from going
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: to college, but there are ways to be successful if
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: you don't go to college.
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: So you okay, but college helps, right, So let me
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: answer that.
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: Does college help? Do you agree that college helps?
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: It depends on the I think it can help. It
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: can help, It has the potential to help.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: You know, when I think of myself, I don't think.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: I don't look at myself as typical average, right, I
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: think and only because of I knew my drive. When
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: I watch these other people, everyone doesn't have the same
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: passion and devotion.
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: You know, dedication to do these things.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: So education is something to fall back on that could
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: at least get you into a stability from a lifestyle, right.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: You know if you ask me, you know, people talk
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: to me all the time about that, and I'm like,
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: I didn't know what the hell I was gonna do.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: I had no clue. I filled out to be a
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: sanitation transit police.
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: But no, no, but this is real.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: This is these are real jobs, like especially like in
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: our community, Like a sanitation job is like hitting a
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: lottery right, Like.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: Well, when you didn't go to school, this is what
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: you did exactly.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: So I'm glad you said that because it's like, Okay,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: you became a construction worker, right, but then.
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: A laborer at seven thirty one Local seven thirty.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: You could have just called it a quits at that, right,
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: But what made you say, Okay, I learned construction from
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: working construction and turn it into a business.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: I actually, at a very young age, I looked at
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: it as it's the trades.
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: I talked to other laborers.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: And they was millionaires from being a laborer because that
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: annuity that they had they worked, yes they worked twenty
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: plus years, but they had an annuity in their union
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: that was over a million dollars. So I'm sitting there like, damn,
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: you could do this. You gotta shovel, that's all you
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: gotta know. You have over a million dollars waiting or
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: you could access whenever you want. And that was very
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: intriguing to me. And it was from a trade standpoint.
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: So all I did was say, let me learn these trades,
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: and it's something that they could never take away from you.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: I always had a chip on my shoulder cause I
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: didn't go to school. I'm five years in high school, Okay,
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: So not because I didn't wasn't smartest because I didn't go.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: I wasn't showing up. I just wouldn't go.
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: But I go in take a test, get seventy five,
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: eighty five, and be out. It's just who I was.
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: And it's like I always look at education is damn
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: what if I did do it? Or Okay, I don't
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: have it, what am I gonna do? Like what do
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: I have to fall back on? Like if I got
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: to support myself, my family, whatever it may be, without
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: an education to go get a job, because when you
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: really start going to get a job, you realize they
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: don't want you unless you have that piece of paper
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: or you have something behind you. Like you go out
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: just looking for jobs to pay for your life. There's
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: only a few things that I looked at that you
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: could actually make a really good living without the education. Again,
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: when you talk about police, you could do that with
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: those jobs.
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: Like a plumber.
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but a trade. Yeah.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: That's one of the things we stress too, is like
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: everybody's not going to go to college.
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: We know that got to it's not for everybody.
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: So it wasn't for me teaching kids trades that they
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: can still have a successful life with. And that's the
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: thing that they don't show them. Man, like go to college,
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: go to college, get a four year degree. I'm an
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: education so like, yeah, that's a big proponent of it.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: I'm like, like, I know kids that coming out of
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: high school, they're not going to college, so we got
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: to prepare them for other things like construction could be
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: something like where we're from, like we said, sanitation.
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: Is huge and look, everything insane.
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: It resonates with me so strongly because I always wanted
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: to empower my people, always talk to my block, telling
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: the kids what they should do don't do. And when
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: you think about from a work standpoint, again that construction,
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: it was.
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: A very good job for something you don't own.
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: From talking from a nine to five standpoint, you made
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: a very good wage and you could really grow it
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: if you want to, like we did. And that's what
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: I did, and again I recommend it still to this
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: day because you cannot take that skill set away. Someone
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: has to build these homes, someone has to build the roads,
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: the highways, and they get paid a very well, very
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: good wage.
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: But so you.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: But but you was entrepreneurial enough to see the flip
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: side of the coin where it is a good job
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: to get paid, but the owner always makes more an employee.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: No matter what business it is, NBA construction, the owners
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: always going to make more risks.
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: As the owner, you have the risk, you should get
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: the reward.
• 14:48
  Speaker 6: Exactly.
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: It's that simple.
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: You know, I'm for all the NBA players making as
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: much money, but the risk still lies with the owner, right.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: So so because you had to start, I just thought
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: about this. You did a family business twice. You did
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: a family business with your sister. I think you did
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: a family business with your brother, right, So we talk
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: about that as well as far, especially in our community.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: We don't understand the power of a working together enough,
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: but also the power of family businesses.
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 15:13
  Speaker 6: It's something that you.
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: Know, they say it's the hardest thing to do. Work
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: with family, Work with family, you know what. I think
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: that is very difficult. So I work, I work with
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: my family. I'm blessed. I think.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: I think it depends on your family, right because I mean,
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: if you have a good relationship, If Jory that's my
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: that's my brother, we work together, it's no problem. But
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: if we have a bad relationship, then the business.
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: Is going to be bad. Took a different I think
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: I think just want of you hear on this mic
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: studio said that.
• 15:46
  Speaker 6: Let me actu you construction.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: So because a lot of listeners everybody's not able to
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: make it the music, right, that's a fact, even though
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: a lot of people do want to make the music.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: But anybody can be a carpenter, a construction worker, a plumber,
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: and anybody can own their own company.
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: So for somebody that's a construction worker or just interested
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: in being an entrepreneur, how did you how did you
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: get your own company? As far as the constructuse there's
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: a lot that goes into it, as far as in
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: New York.
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: City, and we wasn't doing like homes, like a local
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: construction company. I didn't start off there. I started write
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: off with city jobs which you had to bid on
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: and becoming honestly, that's my sister Teama worked in the
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: office of a company called Prew.
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: Construction, and she learned how the bids got put together.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: She didn't know how many men it would take or
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: how to actually build the wall, but she knew exactly
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: how many screws pieces of rebard that went in the wall,
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: which is how you got to the formula to make
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: the bid. And then she also knew how which is
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: to me, the hardest part of the business to collect
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: to know how to do all the paperwork to get
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: to the city offices to make sure they pay you
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: when you finish a portion of the job, because you
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: got paid portion. And one day she just asked me,
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: can you put up a wall? And how many men
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: do you need? And I answered her and she was like, let's.
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: Start her own company.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: And the audible thing is that you didn't just look
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: for anybody to hire, like, no, I.
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: Wasn't the community.
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: I went back to my people again and educate them,
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: taught them to trades, but they have to want it,
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: Like I can't give you that. You have to want
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: it they give you a job. I had to fire
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: a lot of guys too, you know, because they wasn't working.
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: This is business, so if you're not working, I got
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: someone else. And then you started realizing different differences, like
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: an older guy that might have kids is way more
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: reliable than that young guy that's ready to go party
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: every night. You know, you didn't think about those things
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: at that moment. Now you started looking at that. And
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: I would give the older guy the job before because
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: I knew he had to feed his family. I would
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: do things like that. But I really had an incredible
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: crew of an array of different people. I had just
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: two Italians, but the rest was all black or Spanish guys.
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: That were.
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: We was over forty two employees we had.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: So how do you scale, like, because I mean, I
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: guess that's a lot of money to start a construction company, Like,
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: how do you scale?
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: Well, okay, so we was blessed right and we were
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: smart enough to get that deal done, which was the
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: fifty to fifty deal where they put up the bond
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: for the job, we have to bid the job, and
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: we won the first job. It was a Queen's Queen's
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: colding park in Queens. It was a job for about
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: a million dollars. It was about eight nine hundred thousand
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: and some change and we bid the job.
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: Want it.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: So now we're funded because now we went to our
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: partner who's fifty to fifty partners on all the profit,
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: Ken Frolick, and we said we need this to start,
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: and we got funded and that's how we started. And
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: then after that we just started rolling it over.
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: Effect. Yeah, it just started rolling over. But you had
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: to watch your money. You know. Again, your typical profit.
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: Margins in the construction world is anywhere between twenty to
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: thirty thirty percent, So you know, you're talking about making
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: one hundred and eighty grand on that nine hundred thousand.
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: That's money that we never seen at that like in
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: one lump. But the problem was we had to partner
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: up with Kenny, so he's getting ninety of it, we're
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: getting ninety of it. And then we had to keep going.
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: So it got really hairy. But again, you know jay
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: Z said it, but we all say we never stopped.
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: You know, that was the genius part, right, We didn't quit.
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: We just kept going, and we kind of got to
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: a point where now, yeah, we had a lot of
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: money that was old, but we're making a lot of
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: money also, and it kind of started going and going.
• 19:34
  Speaker 6: So how long did it take to go from you
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: and your sister to forty employees?
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: H that was six years?
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: Six years?
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so at that time, at the height of this, right,
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: how much are we bringing it?
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: In the height our biggest job was forty almost forty
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: million dollars and again we was making a little bit
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: more than twenty five percent on the money.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: So your millionaires. Yeah, this is this is in construction
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: thirteen and my sister was the first.
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: She was money bags. TEENA was the money bags. You
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: were thirty one you told me. Yeah, I was in
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: my I just got into my thirties when and then IRV,
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: So that transition was right there in that timeframe is.
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: After Mike Groanimo. This is during Mike Geronimo and we're
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: still going mid nineties. Yeah, mid nineties, so people might
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: not know who Mike Geronimo.
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: Blunt Records, TVT Blunt Records another you know label that
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: we started.
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: Before Murdering go YouTube, that independent Mike Geronimo. You know,
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: we started that and put him out.
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: We had cash money click over there, you got uh
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: pit Bull, We had Little John so you have Royal Flush.
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: These were all the artists that was on this little
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: independent label that we started moving with.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: So all right, So okay, so now we're gonna go
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: into the music side, because your your life story is
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: pretty interesting. Where you you make You become a millionaire
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: at thirty one? Yeah, construction got a nice thing on
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: forty employees and you you give it up.
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: I didn't give it right up.
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: Okay again this goes back to education too, right, So
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: I didn't give it right up.
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: We did.
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: I did both because music was at night. IRV was like, yo,
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: he's growing, he needs help. Come back because I started
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: the music with her. I was managing him and he
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: had a group he was in and we was doing
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: a bunch of we wasn't making money. So now he's
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: making money after the mic g and then he gets
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: into death Jam and he's like, yo, come run his
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: production company top Dog Productions, not not uh top Dog with.
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: TV, not Kendrick.
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: He was first, you know what I'm saying, top Dog Productions,
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: and IRV just wanted to be the biggest and best
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: producer in the game.
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: And basically he's like, come run that and sell beats.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: He had one producer, Little Rob, and I took a
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: Little Rob and sold every beat he would have. But
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: Little Rob wasn't a volume beat producer, like he would
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: make just a few. So but everything he made was fire.
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: I get it off. So I said, we got a problem.
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: We have an inventory problem.
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: I need more. So he's like, what are we gonna do?
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: I said, I'm gonna go hire producers, Okay, and that's
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: what I did.
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: All right?
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: All right?
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: So that leads us into segment two about the music business.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: So we did the backstory, but now we're on going
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: to the music side, which you're probably most famous for
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: what people know you for the most all. Right, So
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: you start off selling earth Okay, So your brother V
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: becomes a producer, yes, and he's selling beats. Yes, and
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: he recruits you to help sell the beats for her, right.
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: He told me come run Top Dog Productions from manage
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: it and run it, you know. And that's what I did,
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: And I believe I did an incredible job.
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: When you start at that time, how much of beat's
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: going for He was making.
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: Five thousand when I first started at Top Dog, So
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: you know we were selling to like the lower tier
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: artist five thousand songs.
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: And you scaled that.
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I scaled it. I wrapped that up.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: Here's why I'm making money from construction, and I'm burning
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: it at both ends.
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: So I'm going to the studio at nights, construction in
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: the daytime.
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: You're still doing it. Construction still doing it.
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: When I first go over, I couldn't just stop because
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: it's it's a business, it's financially and I did it
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: for about a year and a half, two ends, burning
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: at both ends before I said I can't do it
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: no more. But I took him from five thousand and
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: fifty thousand and six months.
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: And then little Rob.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: Who's the producer. He was our main producer at the time. Again,
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: he would make just enough beats, not a lot. I
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: didn't have extra inventory. I always like to talk to it,
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: talk to you people in the music industry, just like
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: his business, because it is. I don't want to treat
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: it like it's just beats. No, this was our inventory.
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: The beats is our inventory, and we didn't have anymore.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: I sell it out. How can I make money? So
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: then I went in and started assembling that production team
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: and I found some incredible producers. Chinck Santana, you know
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: what I'm saying. Monster from DC, I bought his first
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: beat for I asked him. It was a great story
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: because I asked him. I said, he's in my office
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: and I brought him because Pop, this other artist from
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: DC came in and I was like, who's the beats
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: of those? And he was like, oh, it's Chink. So
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: I said, next time you come back, bring him. So
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: he brings them and we're going through music and I said,
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: you ever sold a beat?
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: He said, no, Joe, you know that all that Joe?
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: Well that DC. No Joe.
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: I said, okay, so how much would you want for
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: a beat. He's looking He's like, I don't even know Joe.
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: He's like, I was like, what do you think? He's
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: like five hundred dollars. I said, I'm gonna tell you
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna buy that first beat
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: from you for seventy five hundred, and I cut a
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: check for the first half. I said, when I sell it,
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: because I don't have a home for it, I'll give.
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: You the other half. I said, thirty seven fifty. Win
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: gave him a check that day, thirty seven to fifty.
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: He looked at me. He going crazy. Hey, Joe, I
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: never saw you know. He was going crazy.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: Because you could have been like y'all had five hundred soul.
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't do that because I know what our value is. So,
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, I didn't want I wanted to keep him
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: in the same neighborhood. But again I'm like, here you go.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: And then I said, but I want to sign you
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: to the top Dog.
• 25:20
  Speaker 5: He said.
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: He looked at the chack. He was basically like, whatever
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: you want to do. He said, you could do this
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: for me. I said, yeah, I could do this for you,
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: and sure enough, when he came in, it really changed
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: everything because he was a volume.
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: He made a lot of inventory. So where y'all had
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: death Jam when y'all got him or.
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: No was was an A and R. A death jam
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: was an an R a death jam. So that's what
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: so basically think about it from that standpoint. I'm making
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: music as a producer and I have all this music
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: and we're inside of a system, which is death Cham service. Yeah,
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: so we just started serving beats. And then once you
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: do one, the industry a following industry. Just like everything else.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: We make a hat, a hot hat, everyone makes that
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: hat with their logo on it.
• 26:07
  Speaker 5: So music's no different.
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: You make a hot beat and everyone wants a beat,
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: just like that record you just did. So we started
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: getting calls from not just Depth Jam but every record label.
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: But I got a service on. I need inventory, so
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: I started hiring more beats like a.
• 26:21
  Speaker 5: Red you know DL.
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, fingers styles and we man
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: went on a run and we went from five thousand.
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: I just started pushing the tracks the money.
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: I remember to day, I'll give you a good story.
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: Electro Records ODB, they want beats for ODIB. Sylvia Rohn
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: was running Electro Records. She calls me to come in
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: and talk to hers. I said, I want to sell
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: some beats to ODIB. She said, all right, I do four.
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: How much? At the time, we was only getting twenty
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: thousand a track And I said, forty thousand the track
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: and she said, no to check.
• 27:00
  Speaker 5: I'll cut the check and get it to you.
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: So that's first half is eighty thousand. So I'm happy.
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: I just doubled our value. I'm like great, I go yo,
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: I sold four beasts to odb IRBs like how much?
• 27:12
  Speaker 5: You know? IRV is always about the bottom line? How much?
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: And I was like, I show him the check and
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: he goes crazy. That's all. That's how. That's how a price.
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: We ain't going no long, I said, I know, I
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: got you. Yeah, forty thousands of track.
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: But we went from forty to fifty to seventy five
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: to one hundred in less than a year.
• 27:29
  Speaker 6: What's the highest you got up to two hundred and.
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: Fifty thousand a song? And we was taking six points
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: on each song. Okay, so a single, if you make
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: one single, there's ten points on that single. Five points
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: goes to the producer, five points goes to the writer,
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: we was taking six, which means the writer of the
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: record had to give us an extra point from their side,
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: from their share.
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: It's one hundred points for total now for an album
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: one album, right.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: And that's just because of the track work that y'all have. Yeah,
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: because you want work. We know what'll we know what
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: y'all bringing.
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: Well, you know it's just being aggressive, you know what,
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: that's the key. You know, when you're hot in music,
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: you could get very aggressive. I was very aggressive and
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: IRV is super aggressive. So you know when I say
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: that is because he's pushing me, like go more and more,
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: and that's what we just kept pushing it up.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: This is interesting because even outside of music, people struggle
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: with this all the time.
• 28:23
  Speaker 6: How how much do you charge for your services?
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 28:25
  Speaker 6: There's something especially entrepreneurs, they struggle with this all the time.
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: Know your value or your worth?
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: And I heard Gary V say something before where he
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: was like, if people aren't telling you no, you're too cheap,
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: like you gotta so how do you It's a thin line, right,
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: just general advice, business and wits. How do you know.
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: What to charge?
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: You know what I mean?
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: Like, how do you say, Okay, I'm gonna go from
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: twenty dollars art. Okay, if it's all based on success,
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: you can't charge two hundred and fifty thousand dollars and
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: you're giving trash away and the records don't do anything
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: for the label or the artist. But when you see
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: the result, right, Okay, we could talk now.
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: Because I know how much you generated, you put I
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: know what my record generated for your artists and what
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: that means to your label, and that's how we equate value, right.
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: And again, don't get it confused.
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: The money we was talking the two hundred and fifty
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: thousand isn't advanced.
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: We didn't make an extra dollar.
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: If we took zero, we still make that two hundred
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: and fifty gets paid faster. That's all. It's the same
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: exact amount of money we generated for every record. Do
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: you understand? But it's like, can you break that down?
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: Okay?
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: So if a record generates a million dollars, okay, and
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: we was advanced two hundred and fifty thousand, we only
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: getting seven hundred and fifty thousand or for the million,
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: that's all. It's an advance as simple as that. You
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: do not make an extra dollar because you was advanced.
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: But where the record flops.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: Okay, whatever the record makes, that's where the risk and
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: that's why we took and that's why you took in
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: advance as.
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: A producer, right, So as a producer, you know you.
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: Understood the value of that music if it's successful in
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: their track record, you know, potentially being why that record
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: is gonna be successful for an artist you have.
• 30:15
  Speaker 5: No equity interest in.
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: But you say, hey, advance me this type of advance
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: on that money two hundred and fifty thousand, because you're
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: gonna make millions of dollars and you could. Again, they
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: don't lose any extra Money's all I'm saying. It's just
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: an advance, is all it is. It's an advance on
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: the future earnings of that record record, That's all it is.
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: So again, doctor D was getting two hundred and fifty thousand.
• 30:38
  Speaker 6: Getting a million.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: Somebody who's the highest peg I heard.
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: And I know I know for a fact Rodney Jerkins. Okay,
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: when he was when he was producing for Michael Jackson
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: was getting paid a lot of He's getting paid millions
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: of dollars, but there's no return. Michael basically was owning
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: the record, right, so his he was paying in advance
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: on all his publishing and everything. Because it's Michael Jackson.
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: He's gonna sell fifty records. That record is gonna be
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: worth well more than what he paid you. But Rodney
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: was really getting paid at that time. Man, he was
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: out in Jersey killing. Shout out to Rodney Jerseys legend.
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: It's all right, So all right, so you guys have
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: a team of producers. Yeah, and you're tearing the game
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: up right, Yes, but then you transition into a label, right.
• 31:33
  Speaker 5: Yes, with that by design?
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember you telling me when we was in
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: the studio that, like even DMX, right, like you originally
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: your brother brought DMX.
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he brought depth Jam.
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: But just think when you mentioned Blunt Records earlier, he
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: brought him the Blunt Records.
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: DMX could easily have been signed to Blunt Records, but
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: we didn't do the deal because we didn't think Blunt
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: had enough power as an independent to move the product
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: the way he needed to be more.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: Because I remember the original Murder Inc. Being not a
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: label but being a group with jay Z, d MX
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: and jo Rule.
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: Right, that's Irv's original concept what he wanted to do.
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: He thought they was absolutely the best. People don't realize
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: that Jay z DMX. But the one they don't realize
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: is joh Rule was a battle rapper. We used to
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: battle Rule against everybody. So IRV just felt he had
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: the most talented artists at that time and wanted to
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: create this supergroup called murder Ring.
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: I had that double Excel cover was on my wall
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: for at least five years. You know, we was this
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: close to so they had to handle They had the bad.
• 32:49
  Speaker 5: That was a great cover.
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: You see their face, but in the back of the
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: cover of that, you see the bats the change.
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, right, you guys, you didn't
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: go to college, right, No, you had a background in
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: business because you had a construction company, so you understood
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: business on that.
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: Didn't go to school either, So but how do you all, right,
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: how do you start?
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: You started a record label, but you don't know anything
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: about how to run a business?
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: On you do? But no, no, no, no, I have
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: no clue.
• 33:17
  Speaker 6: How do you figure that out?
• 33:18
  Speaker 5: How to run?
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: How do you?
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: Just like I did in construction sit with lawyers, I
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: asked a ton of questions, you know, I you know,
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: don't be afraid to ask or think you something stupid.
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: You're gonna learn, but you learned the hard way to write.
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: You know, your best education is because you lose, right,
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: I don't get. We lost a ton of money because
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: of lawyers that took advantage that you're thinking they're doing
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: the right deal for you, and they're not lawyers. I
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: fired all of the best lawyers you could think of it.
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: They all worked for me. I fired them all. They're
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: all in.
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: Bed with the labels. You gotta see, we didn't know that.
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: These are all the things you learned in hindsight, you know.
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: But they're all in bed with the label.
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: So how can I get what I want from the label?
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: And they're busy giving up all the information to the
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: label and blocking me every chance I get. And uh,
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: that's what happened. My best deals happened because I hired.
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: I took the Sugar Sugar Night route, irving myself. We
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: discussed and decided we want the Sugar Knight rowdies. One
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: lawyer only works for you, nobody else.
• 34:28
  Speaker 6: You are his only client.
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: Ron Sweeney took him from Sony Ron Sweeney and Brian
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: Robinson a salary in points or profit.
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: Okay, which is way more than what he was getting.
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: So that's kind of what but it's way cheaper for us,
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: how about that? Yeah, No, it's becacause we get better deals. Now, Yeah,
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: you understand what I'm saying. You gotta give up something
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: to get.
• 34:51
  Speaker 6: Something, and you gotta spend money to make money.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, people, I said, I'm glad you brought that up,
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: because people do all the time in business where they
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: they skim on important right, Yeah, and that's something that's important, right,
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: So you want to spend money on something that's important, because,
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: like you said, you spent more money on an in
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: house lawyer, but it saved you a lot of money.
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: So I just had this conversation last night in the
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: studio with someone that wants me to be their consultant.
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: And the first question I asked him was why would
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: you pay me to be a consultant? What's your reason?
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: I want to hear your reason. He didn't have an answer.
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: He didn't even know. He's like, I know you know
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: the business, But I said, what's the reasons? Yeah, there's
• 35:29
  Speaker 4: a lot of people to know the business. Why do
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: you want me? Why do you want someone to consult you?
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: What's the reason why? And I said, if you're not
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: understanding that you're not thinking properly. Like the reason you
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: pay consultant is to save money because you won't make
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: a mistake that you might cost you a lot of money.
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: And that's basically what the reason that we went with
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: Ron Swiney. He was he was the head of business
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: affairs for Sony Music, which means he was the head
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: attorney for every business deal at Sony, which means he
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: knows where all the bones is buried, you understand. He
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: knows how all the contracts, where they jerk you, where
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: the money is That he when he came in, And
• 36:09
  Speaker 4: same with Brian Robinson. Brian Robinson was over Universal and
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: we took him. So we had those two as our
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: only terms. They couldn't work for no one else, They
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: only could work for us, and they got points on
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: the profits all right.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: So we realized that, you know a lot of people
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: might not know what you went through, right, So it's.
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: A business could Also a good thing.
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: About the story too for the podcast is that we
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: like to paint the real picture of business.
• 36:37
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: It's never all good in business. So you guys experienced.

  Speaker 6: something like.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: So murder Ink was untouchable, the untouchable murder Ink. Right,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: So all right, we got up. We gotta talk about
• 37:07

• 37:08
  Speaker 2: is public knowledge. He put this in his book. So

  Speaker 4: So when I had found out, IRV calls me and says, seven,
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: we signed to Jay Prince.
• 37:54
  Speaker 5: That's one of your producers.

• 37:57
  Speaker 4: our main producers and made a lot of records, made
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: a lot of money, and J Prince was basically claiming
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: all the money he made and generated because seven said

• 51:09
  Speaker 4: Out Sam Sam cook actually was trying to do, Something Sam,
• 51:11
  Speaker 4: cook that's, right and then they think he's the reason they.
• 51:14
  Speaker 5: Got, here got killed, right like he was seriously gets
• 51:16
  Speaker 5: killed by some random.
• 51:17
  Speaker 11: Woman you, KNOW i hate conspiracy, theories but it's hard
• 51:22
  Speaker 11: to some of. These it's hard to deny certain, things
• 51:25
  Speaker 11: is What i'm. SAYING i hate it BECAUSE i like, proof,
• 51:28
  Speaker 11: RIGHT i like to know. FACTS i don't like to
• 51:30
  Speaker 11: talk on. SPECULATION i like to know what's really. Real
• 51:35
  Speaker 11: and that's WHAT i. Mean but there's so many.
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: Factors even when you talk about let's say like holistic
• 51:40
  Speaker 4: doctors and then all of a, sudden all these random
• 51:43
  Speaker 4: doctors that got killed it's like or, disappeared.
• 51:48
  Speaker 5: Doctor.
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: Sevy there has to be some type of connection that
• 51:51
  Speaker 4: correlates to these. Deaths so it's, like, so, yeah there's
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: a conspiracy, theory but there's a lot of facts.
• 51:57
  Speaker 5: Too.
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: Man so all, right so you guys caught the that.
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: Case so The, feds if anybody's not, FAMILIAR.
• 52:03
  Speaker 5: I don't know how we caught a fair. Case but
• 52:05
  Speaker 5: you know that's another.
• 52:06
  Speaker 6: Story, yeah The.
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: Feds the conviction rate is ninety seven. Percent you don't
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: beat the. Fedes it's almost. Impossible to beat the feds
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: because they put so much pressure on. You they strutsch
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: the cases out for so. Long, well you almost got a.
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: Copy that's.
• 52:15
  Speaker 6: Why that's why the conviction rate is so, high because
• 52:18
  Speaker 6: most people just cop out and usually your money.
• 52:20
  Speaker 5: Runs, Right so you guys had the peak of your.
• 52:22
  Speaker 6: Dominance, yes you caught a federal. Indictment what was?

  Speaker 6: and supreme that's what They, well you, know it.
• 52:36
  Speaker 5: Was a lot more.

• 52:45
  Speaker 4: we was paying think we was charged with a million
• 52:48
  Speaker 4: dollars of money on. It, right just to just just
• 52:52
  Speaker 4: use your own common sense from, THERE a million dollars
• 52:54
  Speaker 4: of money on it sounds like a, Lot but we're
• 52:56
  Speaker 4: at that moment we're paying tens of millions of dollars in.

• 57:32
  Speaker 4: dollars was given to them for those assets that they.
• 57:35

  Speaker 4: room while we're in.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 5: The middle of. Our trial this Is what universal did.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 2: To Us so universal comes in the middle of the
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: trial with paperwork, that says if you lose, your case
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: we own, everything everything and, doing that they gave. You
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: money they cut a check that they owed us so
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: we could continue.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 4: To pay but that's what, they did you Know what,
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 4: I'm saying so we could continue to pay legal we
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 4: was paying. PRIVATE investigators i investigated everyone next to ME
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 4: because i wanted to.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: Know who, my DEALER and i. LET it i want
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: people to really understand and see that in so in
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 2: the middle of a. Federal trial you went to jail for. Twenty,
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 2: years yes somebody from universe who comes, and, says look
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 2: WE have x amount of dollars in. The courtroom but
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: in order to get, this money sign this paper and if,
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: you lose we're gonna take everything that.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 5: You, build everything it's. Ours ours you have no real
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 5: choice but to sign it because you. Need, money right
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 5: they found. Your vulnerable but now we, REALLY dice, i said.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 4: But this game was the this was crazy crazy and
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 4: how again it was a, crazy risk but we was running.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 4: Our options so we do, the deal we win, the
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 4: case we, own everything and then they don't want to
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 4: do a deal. With us took us over two years
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 4: to get that next. Deal back so you're sitting there
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 4: with no. Generated revenue THAT'S why i went, into sports
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 4: you Know what. I'M saying i went, into insurance. He
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 4: fund this is all, the time the ERA when i
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 4: started all. Of these after those, two years we didn't
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 4: get our. Deal back we thought we was going to
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 4: run right back into a, deal nothing so.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: All right, So okay so now that leads into the
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: conversation of what you're. Doing now because the distribution thing
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 2: started with that and listening, the studio you was explaining
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 2: how what you're doing Now with adventures you're distributing independent music.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 6: To, platforms yes like a. Distribution channel i'm a.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 5: Distribution Company, season yeah.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 2: BECAUSE because i don't think a lot of can we
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 2: just break down because there's a lot of independent artists,
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 2: out there and especially now right they may Not know
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: so as an, independent artist how do you get? Your,
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: music well we know how to get to, music now
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 2: but before like what was the how does the independent
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 2: artist get that music onto.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 5: Before the internet or After.
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 4: The internet like Before, the internet you could still go directly,
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 4: to iTunes but now they put a lot more criteria
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 4: on it because they're trying to eliminate. The volume if
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 4: you don't come through an aggregator, like myself a, toom
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 4: CORE a. Cd baby they don't want that business From
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 4: Just john Doe, From boise idaho putting their.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 5: Music up they want you to go through.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 4: An aggregator so that's another way of them, blocking, things
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 4: right they got. To control everything is about control, and
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 4: blocking so that's what. They're DOING so i have, A Company,
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 4: adventure MUSIC and i do digital distribution for independent ARTISTS
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 4: and i get you on all of, those outlets all
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 4: those DSPs that would allow your music to be either
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 4: streamed or downloaded. For money and then, you know we
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 4: take a percentage just like any, distribution company, you know
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 4: and you get.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 6: The balance so it all. Has COMPANY but i don't own.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 6: Your music they still.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 5: Own him, the artist, whoever is whoever is that person
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 5: is that's putting the, music up is the owner of.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 5: The music so the benefit of it right as an.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 3: Independent artist Let's say i'm an, INDEPENDENT artist i can
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 3: put the music, up, MYSELF right i can put it
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 3: on A sound why don't we go to ADVENTURES because i?
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 4: Have things when you, Say SoundCloud SoundCloud is not a
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 4: real place to. Get, monetized okay it's mostly, free music
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 4: but it's one of the number one places for independent
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 4: artists to get to.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 5: Get RECOGNIZED so I.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 4: Encourage SoundCloud and now they did start a monetization side,
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 4: of it so you can't, do it but you gotta,
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 4: fit again it's a criteria to get to fit.
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 5: Into it so but Let's Say apple Music or title,
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 5: you could.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 4: YOU can't i delivered over two, hundred locations which is
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 4: typically more than ninety five percent of all the other
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 4: aggregators that, does distribution but.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 5: Then the real.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 4: Secret sources i'm part. Of education i'm teaching you the
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 4: reason you should do what you need to do from a.
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 4: Business standpoint from if, you know every independent artist is A.
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 4: MINIATURE universal I use universal all the time because they're
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 4: the biggest. Record label so whatever they're doing to monetize,
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 4: their business you should.
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 5: Be doing the.
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 4: Same way just you're, just, Small right but they know.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 4: The game they know how to monetize this music that,
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 4: you're doing so you should. Follow suit you should understand
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 4: don't try and reinvent the wheel because they know how
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 4: to do it. The, best now you could do other
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 4: things added on that they may not do and try
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 4: because you might change. The game but follow the business
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 4: acclement of what, they do and you'll be in a.
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 4: Great place, you know the number way music record labels
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 4: make money. Is catalog, you know that's the number one
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 4: revenue stream all the. Old Music so i'm trying to.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 4: Teach artists they tell me they got a hundred songs in,
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 4: their Computer and, i'm like, that's money but you don't
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 4: get it because it's in.
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 5: Your computer and.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 4: If you go to these other companies they charge you
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 4: every month to keep your music out to, distribute it which. Is,
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 4: counterproductive RIGHT if i, HAVE to i want to be
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 4: able to put my music out and it sits there
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 4: as long as that. COMPANY'S open i don't want it
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 4: to be returned to me or. TAKEN down i wanted
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 4: to sit there because if it could make, A dollar
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 4: i want to make. A dollar if it could make one,
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 4: HUNDRED dollars i want one, hundred dollars and it could
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 4: be in, ten years, twenty years it.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 5: Doesn't matter that's what. Music is.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 4: You, know uh give me AN. Album dmx we was
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 4: Just talking. Dmax depth jam is not making a dollar
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 4: of marketing.
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 5: Costs into that. Album anymore that is pure.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 4: Profit one every dollar is on top of whatever they,
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 4: already generated and that will. Sell, forever right. It's timeless
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 4: it's gonna get. Played forever it's gonna generate. Revenue forever
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 4: that's the game you're in as, an artist and you
• 1:11:41

  Speaker 4: your record mix. The MASTER like i, tell everyone the

• 1:14:08
  Speaker 4: Sound right, you know you've ever been in the club

  Speaker 4: and they play a record from somebody and that record
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 4: sounds like a little lower and then you play the
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 4: records that are.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 5: Out and it goes. Back up that's. The problem that's
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 5: why you need to mix the master.
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 4: Your record you're Competing, with drake even though you don't,
• 1:14:24
