  Speaker 2: being broke as hell. Like, which part of being broke
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: as hell did you want to have the conversation about,
• 2:31

• 3:02
  Speaker 2: don't even taste the same. But we're gonna put that
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: over there, because that's what that's gonna be at. I
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: lived all over South Central, Inglewood and all over LA
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: everywhere in La all you know what I mean, and
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: then also all over the valley too, you know what
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: I mean. So yeah, yeah until that. My parents were
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: married until I was about twelve and then they split.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: So right when I turned into a teenager and started
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: going outside, it was yeah, I was dolo, okay.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: And then did you also always know you were going
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: to get into music?
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: You know? Nah? Not really. I thought I was going
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: to be an actor, which I ended up being on
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: love and hip hop and different stuff. It's kind of
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: a version of acting. But I started off, you know,
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: coming out, you know, and like my my, my mom
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: put me into acting and I was the stand up
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: comedy champion at Lave Factory for like three years with
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Jamie Massada. So Jamie Masada, which was the left he
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: put me in and I was young, but I was
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: so good that him, Paul Rodriguez and all of them
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: put me into the adult camp and I was like ten,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: so ten eleven, twelve, ten eleven, twelve, and like yeah,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: the beginning of thirteen, I was, I was, I was
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: doing the stand up comedy. Okay, he as a kid,
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: and then that got me into like some national commercials
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: and a couple of teacher Like I start figuring out
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: like dang, what's a Coogan account? And obviously being broke
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: as hell. My parents were also broke as hell, so
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: that Cougan account got cooganed, that got cooked.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: I thought that all that money was supposed to protect it.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: It is supposed to.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't work because my dad had the same
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: name as me, so he just absolutely mangled wapped my account.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: By time, whatever I had built was whenever I had built,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: it was saram bag. So I did all that work,
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: but it was still a good experience, you know what
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: I mean. So, yeah, there's a rap.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah it was it a shocker that you lost the
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: money or did you kind of know it was going
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: to disappear?
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Well? I know, I knew. I knew that I came
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: from the type of appearance like I know what it was.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. You know, when you grow
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: up and you like, I'm probably not gonna never see
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: this money. By the time I get to this money now,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: I was hustling. I was already out in the streets
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: hustling young. So like even when I was done out
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: and I just was out there hustling dolo to the
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: point where by the time I was like fourteen fifteen,
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: I was like making so much money just doing different
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: whatever I was doing. And then I was giving my
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: mom money, and like they were separate. So I get
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: my mom here, take some bands, and she like, how
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: you got bands in you? Fourteen fifteen? And I'm handing
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: her money. So I was like it was a little
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: weird because I always was a hustler. I get straight
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: to it. However, it go like ever since I was young,
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: I was selling candy or selling this. You know, I
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: go to ninety nine cent stores, go home, go to
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: the school, sell sugar, Daddy, sell the sell that. So
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: I was always doing something. I was always hustling. I'm
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: the hustler, Like you come get me when it's time
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: to hustle. We don't figure it out. Thus, years later,
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: obviously multiple companies, and but but it came from you know,
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: absolutely nothing. So but for like I I was doing
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: good on the hustle, and then I started getting kicked
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: out of the schools that I was hustling in, so
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: then my money started dropping back down. Whatever, And there
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: I was, I was, I was. I was cooking the
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: ninety nine cent store. However that was happening different situations.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: Said I was just going viral when be in here
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: just saying I was doing anything. But we was doing
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: all kinds of stuff. Then I get the bread, I
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: get the can't do whatever situation was, and then we'd
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: go run it up, run it up, run it up.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: However that happened, and then and I'd be selling it. It
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: to be all profits, so I'd be making like one
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: hundred something a day. Then I started baking. I'm like, damn,
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: when I'm thinking about all the things I'm talking about hustling,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: this shit kind of self incriminated. When I started thinking
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: about all this stuff I was doing, liked, am I
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: supposed to break that down? Just know I was, because
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: I was, I'm like, damgn, I started. I'm like, by
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: the time I'm done, y'all be like, dangn we should
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: probably cut that out because I was doing all kinds
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: of I was hustling, I was running plays, I was
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: in licks. I was doing all kinds of stuff. And
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: we don't want to go through all that. Don't even
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: tell aboutself, but I was. It was It was unusual.

• 7:53
  Speaker 2: didn't even know I had any talent besides the you know, accomy. Yeah,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: because my sister, she was a singer and she like

  Speaker 2: the first American idol, and so she they was on
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: whatever she was on. I was just in the cut.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Like I mean, obviously the way I look, I might
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: have cut have been a supermodel or something. But if
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: they wasn't thinking about that, it was like.

• 8:22
  Speaker 2: That's my like that, that's my heart. She was always
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: like just super anointed singing wise, and so she always
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: had opportunities and different things going on. And yeah, I
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: just so should I start cooking? Oh yeah, you gotta
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: dump that in. But then we gotta get the season
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: and so anyway you gotta throw a little season and

• 26:34
  Speaker 2: back around here and I'm figuring it out pretty much.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: So like eighteen I had eighteen, I had bumped into
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: an investor. First of all, I was I was writing,
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: like I was battle rapping and doing all that, and
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: I was so popular with dance and I was getting
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: a lot of popularity with dance in my space in
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: San Diego. I had dropped the record called bat Box
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: on my space, and when I tell you, it was
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: the most popular. So I had like a million something blades.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: It was the most popular song, and I said, dang,
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: these people really like my music. This is crazy. And
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: so I was getting so much not that people were
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: dming me like yo, bro, that's fire, Like yo, bro,
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: what's up? So basically this investor had DM me like yo,
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: I got no Actually sorry, Mike Post. You know Mike
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: Post he created Law and Order, the Law and Order Tell,
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: the Lawn Order theme song, and all the music for
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: Law and Order. He gets paid every three seconds. He's ridiculous.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: So so Mike Post is like yo, like my other
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: boy was actually at Mike's studio. He's like, yo, you
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: should sit down on him. So I came over there.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: They gave me like like it was like yo, go ahead,
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: like play what you got. I played it. I did
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: like a whole performance thing Da da da, and it
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: was like yo, like you're the next. There was no
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: Drake obviously, there was just maybe a Chris, but there
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: was no rapping, singing dance. Wasn't They like yo, like
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: you next up? Like this is crazy, like what you need?
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Matter of fact. So he had an SSL studio with
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: like other rooms. He was like listen, anytime, use my studio.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: You're good. So for me going you know, in everybody
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: closet to record you know what I'm saying. The bathrooms,
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: and I'm recording the most random places in the hood,
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: just like wherever you got a mic set it up. Like,
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: so going from there to an SSL recording studio was
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: a It just was a different frequency. So I'm like,
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: because of my environment, I have to now adapt to
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: this level of music. So that SSL made me change
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: the way I approached records because I'm like, let me
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: think a little harder now, you know what I'm saying.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: So I'm doing that this and the third, and I'm
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: writing crazy records and I'm rapping. I'm doing all this stuff.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: I was with this dude n In Kira from London,
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: which is which was my main producer. I actually assigned
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: a production deal with him and Kira early was like
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: he was a family friend from from my mom from
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: way back, but he's from London, so his sound was European.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: He had like done Kylie Minogue and all these other people,
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: so he was like, yo, rock, this is how we
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: gonna approach it. It was always like some big sound
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: in European, worldwide stuff. And then I'm like okay, and
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: then he was like, yo, there's this group called Lexington Bridge.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: The're number one in Germany. I'm gonna put you on
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: there with them. So he put me in with this
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: group and I ended up doing a verse and ended

• 51:51
  Speaker 2: what do you mean, I'll fly out of here? Hey, look,
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: I thought I was next year. It was I blew
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: through the money so fast that my ankles on twisted.
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: That's how fast I ran through the money. My ankles
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: almost twisted. How fast I ran through the money. It
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: was unusual. But I didn't even get there yet. Thank
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: you for ruining that. But yeah, I absolutely ran through
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: the money. And when I tell you, I never not
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: ran through the money. It's mandatory that you run through
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: the money. Though. A billionaire broke that down to me
• 52:23
  Speaker 2: because I never understood why I kept blowing my money.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: That's a huge part that people have to realize. Why
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: do you blow your money? Why? So a couple different
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: mobuls taught me different things, but one billionaire told me,
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: you know the reason you blowed through your money, Like
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: you keep complaining because one time I went broke. This
• 52:45
  Speaker 2: we're skipping up. You got me skipping up. One time
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: I went broke right after I got all this money.
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: One time I went broke. And when I was broke,
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: I was sitting there and I'm telling him, like, bro
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: I'm fucked up right now. You ain't got no projects, Like,
• 52:59
  Speaker 2: just give me a bridge and I'm gonna get back
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: on my feet. And he like, he like, listen, how
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: much you I'm like give me, Like I need like
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: a core. I need like two hundred and fifty thousand.
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: So he like, all right, listen, you keep looking real emo.
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: And I don't like the way you're talking about yourself
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: or the way you feeling, like the way you're I'm
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: used to a different type of rock star. You gotta
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: understand how the trajectory of money goes. And I'm like,
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: what you mean? He said, listen, When I made five
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: hundred thousand, I lost it. Then I made a million,
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: I lost it. Then I made two million. I lost
• 53:33
  Speaker 2: it until I got to a place where I made
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: enough where I could fall on a cloud and I
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: was still up there, and then I could keep going
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: from there. He said, it's mandatory because you have to
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: go low to go high. You gotta bend your knees
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: to jumps gravity. If you don't go low, you're not
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: gonna go high. So your trajectory even on a stock obviously,
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: now me being publicly traded a publicly traded company owner
• 53:57
  Speaker 2: and me being a stock, me being who I m
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: today and a mogul and a different type of thing
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: with tech, and I understand now how graphs and charts work.
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: Back then, I didn't even know what he was talking about,
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: but I did say, dang, you do gotta being your
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: needs to jump. You gotta go lower to go higher.
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: He's like, bro, you keep don't fold because you hit
• 54:16
  Speaker 2: the ground. You should be rejoicing. You the type of
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: dude you are, you think you're gonna stay here? Yeah? Right,
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: I bet everything in my account you'll be rich in
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: the year. And I'm like what damn. I'm like, okay, cool.
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: And he didn't give me the money. He was like,
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna give you the money because you gotta
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: go through the steps to go get the money. Go
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: figure it out. Shit. And I'm like, damn, this nigga
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: did all that and I didn't get nothing. This sucks.
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: This nigga sucks. But at the end of the day,
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: it was so true. I was like, yo, and I
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: figured out how to maneuver and figure and everything. Every
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: detail was mandatory for my next elevation, you know what

  Speaker 2: got the check, bought her a brand new Rams Rover,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 2: gave her a check, got her out her apartment. She
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 2: was living with her sister and her mom and it's
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: like over there in the middle of Korea town and
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: something crazy. It was like it was crazy, but got
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: them their own spot. They moved into this house. And
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: that was the first time I ever flipped. That was
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 2: that was like my first legal brick. Like I like load,
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: like I found a collect that was pretty much a
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 2: Colombian connect and I just flipped the whole. All that's
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 2: gone one load. I showed up and we got out
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: of there safe and the gorillas didn't get us. That
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: was the most money I had ever seen at the time.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: So I'm like, oh my god, and I just went broke.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: That was the thing. I lost all the money doing
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: too much because I had just got all that. The
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: second again, yeah yeah, definitely lost again. But but that too,
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: I just was. I was down there like two ninety

• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: went through having an artist and a major. That whole
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: situation went far left. But we're not going to go
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 2: into what that was because that was crazy. But you
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: know that taught me a whole bunch of stuff there
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 2: in terms of signing artist to majors and then the net.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: Let's keep skipping. The next big check was when I
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 2: signed a label deal myself to Craig Calman. That was
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: my first millions.

  Speaker 2: pressed playing my speakers was smacking their stupid asses, and
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 2: they had to like me because of who I was

  Speaker 2: fuck with me. I'm done. But obviously lead that's when
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 2: that confidence, like whatever God has for me, no man,

• 1:10:30
  Speaker 2: gonna cut me a check soon, and that saying nigga

• 1:10:37
  Speaker 2: is crazy thing is they will try and blacklist you
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: to the maximum capacity if they feel like they can't.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 2: The industry is so scandalous if they can get you

• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: None of them want to be taking risk and putting
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 2: their job on the line for you. And so I

• 1:11:04

  Speaker 2: but that's a different story. But what I'm saying is fine.
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 2: China was so massive and it hit so hard that everybody.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 2: Bruno Mars changed his sound. Everybody changed their sound and
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 2: went to that. Bruno Mars went from beautiful girls to
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 2: now everybody's in the eighties. I don't want no I'm like, oh,
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 2: so all y'all want to bring basslines to the radio.
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 2: I changed music guaranteed. So once Chris did find China.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, Timberland walked in the room
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 2: and then me and Timberland was locked in for about
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 2: four months straight. Timberland is the reason I did the
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 2: stuff with Beyonce. With Beyonce flew me out to Jungle
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 2: City and he brought me to at least get Timberland
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 2: brought me to some different people because me and him
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 2: was super locked in. So but he came to the
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 2: camp late after the album was damn, they're done, and
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 2: he was like he heard find China, stopped the music
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 2: and said, listen, this is the craziest shit. What the
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 2: fuck is happening? Who did this? And they was like, oh,
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 2: Chris and Allen was like that nigga. He was like, nigga,
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 2: you are not normal. Oh for shure, they're like you.
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 2: But at that time I was at I was in
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 2: the camp, his friends, it became my best friends, his cousin,
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 2: my cousin. We all together, we at the clubs together,
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 2: were moving around. I played Autumn Leaves for Rihanna and
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 2: she cried, oh he played at at least for Rihanna.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 2: She cried Niggas like, I can't like. The records were
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 2: so vicious that it was like people couldn't believe that
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 2: niggas was creating this level of music. And that was
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 2: my time to shine. That was my time to show
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 2: the industry through the biggest artists in the world, that
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 2: I was. And so that record Fine China changed everything
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 2: because I went from that to executive producing this album.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 2: I did not I did. I did ten records on
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 2: X on that album and I named the album X
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: with Diplo, Me, Diplo, Chris. We did the X, but
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 2: we actually named the album X off this record that
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: we did called X and it was life. That was
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: life changing for me. That record changed my life. And
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 2: then I went from that to doing j Lo's album,
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 2: Fergie album, Usher, Rihann, everybody you could think of it
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 2: just domino effect once they knew, oh he's him, and
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 2: the executives can get around it no more. Once show
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 2: artists are requested me, who did that? Well, who's the
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 2: nigga that's always with Chris? Who's the nigga that just
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 2: did that? Brought him? Because Chris Brown was in a
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 2: place where nobody was trying to hear his shit no more. Yeah,
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 2: there wasn't fucking with him. And then I said, well,
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 2: why don't we do a Jackson record that is going
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 2: to remind the world, like Michael Jackson was getting in
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 2: bullshit every day, dude, whack old jack Oh this is this.
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 2: But when he pressed play, oh, that ship went out
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 2: the window. And we do a Michael record. And so
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 2: when he did that, he took a risk and he
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 2: did the Michael record. They was right back on his dick.
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 1: So now that we've gotten your full scope and your
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 1: tipping points.
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I like that.
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 1: I like that you got a little black listed in between.
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 1: That's crazy.

• 1:28:38
  Speaker 1: I thought I was fifteen.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 2: No, I was at eleven, and then we're up for
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 2: three right now? Ok, A fourteen Yeah, that's that's all
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 2: what I'm saying. That's a hundred million records.
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 1: We're here, We're here, yeah, right over time. But I
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 1: just want to make sure that I cover just kind
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 1: of the today's standpoint, like what's going on with you? Now?
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 2: We got rock wireless, Yeah, Rockstar wireless, ros Star wireless Yeah,
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 2: well yeah, because you got a transition. So making millions
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 2: of dollars and becoming a mogul in music gets you
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 2: to a place, right, And that made all my some
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 2: of my best friends like flow Rider and different people
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 2: that support me. Me and floor Rider used to sleep
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 2: on the floor at Davonte's swing studio. Yeah, if you
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 2: talked to flow Rider and be like you used to
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 2: sleep on the floor at Me and flow Rider used
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 2: to sleep on the floor at Davonte's swing studio and
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 2: we were sharing burgers and Sharon Fries and shit like that.
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 2: He got discovered, went to Miami and I think signed
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 2: a trick that year, one of them out the blue.
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 2: But we was all there, broke busted in discussion. This
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 2: is why floor Rider is one of my best friends
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 2: in the world. And it just killed that that ninety
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 2: million dollar deal with Celsius and all that time heat.
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 2: That's one of my best friends. I love floor Rider
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 2: to death. But we came from the bottom together. But
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 2: a lot of the people that I came up with
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 2: and when I became a mogan whatever situate, they support
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 2: me on a different scale because they've really seen what
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 2: I went through to become something bigger and so tech.
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 2: I've always been in a tech it was my passion forever.
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 2: Like we won the CS Award for Most Innovative Technology
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 2: in twenty thirteen for the dual screen cell phone. Me
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 2: and my partner Darius Allen, which I partnered in Rockster
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 2: Wireless with was creating cell phones, selling cell phones, tablets
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 2: with the projectors, doing stuff that people couldn't do early
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 2: and so I stick to the same code I start
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 2: with you. I'm finished, but still my partner in things
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 2: that we do. All day. I was doing tech since
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 2: I figured that tech was what's next, Crypto was what's next.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 2: I had a million dollars in crypto. I had million
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 2: dollars in bitcoin when bitcoin was two thousand dollars. My
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 2: boy DA put me up on a play. I made
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 2: million dollars in bitcoin early. So I was on plays
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 2: everything tech early, and I was always in it, and
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 2: I was just honing creating, and so that's how I
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 2: kind of got into tech. Because music will make you
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 2: a certain amount of money, but it's a gateway drug.
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 2: And the problem is people stay in music forever. Catalog
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 2: publishing all that. That's cool, but it's limited. I take that.
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 2: I've used that gateway drug to get into a much
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 2: bigger atmosphere, and I use the connections and the people
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 2: I've built this world with to This is how beats
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 2: By Dre becomes a four billion dollar company. You take
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 2: Jimmy Iveen starts dabbling in tech, he takes the doctor
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 2: dres and now here it's the influence of this. So
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 2: Chris Brown one hundred and fifty six million followers on
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 2: just one platform. If that's your people and he pushes
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 2: a button, you now, even if it's just ten percent,
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 2: you got fifteen million users on a platform, you could
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 2: already sell the platform just off them users at one percent,
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 2: one point five million users on a platform. So once
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 2: I started to understand and extra strategies, how to do
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 2: reverse mergers and the shell companies, how to do pink sheets,
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 2: how to sit there and run stocks from the top
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 2: to the bottom. How to really understand the crypto markets,
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 2: the NFT markets, how to mint, how to understand floors,
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 2: where Ethereum went, where this is it? Solana all the coins?
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: How to go through different situations. I study things, and
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 2: once I started understanding where the money was, I started
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 2: to create tech companies on a scale that's like okay, music,
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 2: tech influence all in one situation. Then that's how I
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 2: got Rockstar Wireless. Did it with the head of T Mobile,
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 2: Dan Thigerson, Mike Seffert and all of them, And they
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 2: came in, They're like, yo, we support we don't have
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 2: any minority NB and os let's tag team. So we
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 2: locked in with them. Did that did the biggest deal.
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 2: We're the only black owned cell phone company and that's worldwide,
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 2: and we have better rates than everybody else. Yeah, e
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 2: racing everybody now.
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 1: And now we know that I'm going to get a
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: second line. Oh yeah, get you a second oneless.
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 2: As you know, Mint Mobile just sold for one point
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 2: four billion. That's how Ryan got his one point four billion,
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 2: as he would have had to do a lot of
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 2: movies to get that. But you know that tech takes
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 2: you somewhere else. I also have Trinity Social, which TikTok
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 2: is going out of style and they're about to get banned.
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 2: So we created a social media platform that encompasses all
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 2: of the platforms into one platform. That's why it's called Trinity.
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 2: It's like the Father, the son Hoole. It's like all
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 2: of the things in one is the Trinity. And so
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 2: it's called Trinity Social. And we have a version of
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 2: Clubhouse in there, a version of OnlyFans in there. We
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 2: have everything that Instagram gives you from feeds, you can monetize,
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 2: go lot, everything all inside one social media app. And
• 1:33:51
  Speaker 2: so that's next stuff as well as doloaded. Right now
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 2: in your app store, download Trinity Social. You'll love it
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 2: if you're tired of paying however much you're paying, and
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 2: people paying three four five hundred dollars on cell phone bills,
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 2: you can come to Rockstar wireless were given nineteen ninety nine, Like,
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 2: I don't know what you want to do. I don't
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 2: know if you beat that. I pay for it when
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 2: coming to play.
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 1: My phone way too hot. So we gotta go, We
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: gotta go.
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 2: And so I've been building heavy tech companies and running
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 2: plays and now I'm kind of the bridge between tech
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 2: companies and the music business. It's impossible to get to
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 2: a Chris Brown, It's impossible to get to a Jennifer Lopez.
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 2: It's and possible to get to a Fergie or a
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 2: Prince Royce or even like certain basketball players certain and
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 2: they're all my best friend. Like there's people I'm day
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 2: to day with. So I bridge gaps between even other
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 2: companies that I rock with, and we bridge gaps so
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 2: that their companies can scale a lot faster than the
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 2: traditional marketing of strategies, because that's really the new marketing strategy,
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 2: Like influencers and so I have, you know, kind of
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 2: ignorant amount of them, and so we go crazy and
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 2: we're all friends, Like I only mess with people that
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 2: I like, And so that's the whole situation. And I've
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 2: just been scaling and just building from there. And that's
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 2: how I you know, coming from nothing to something, that's
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 2: how that really happened. And when I tell somebody I
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 2: really was sleeping coming from nothing, that's something I really
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 2: built it break by brick by brick by step.
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 1: I think we just learned that just now hell Broke's
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 1: head to lit to to really lit to wealthy, I
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 1: would say more wealthy.
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 2: I'm still rich. I feel like I need to get
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 2: to I'm getting to wealthy once I exit you know,
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 2: two or three of these companies or even one of
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 2: even one of them, Uh, you know, it's going to
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 2: be a wealthy situation. But until then, I would say
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 2: rich because you know, for me, uh, until you're nine
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 2: ten figures, until you're in a one hundred million range,
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 2: like ten figures. Yeah, I touched ten figures in terms
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 2: of deals, but that's ten million, nine million. I know
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 2: that's a million eleven minute. But you're talking about people
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 2: are out here running around with billions and billions and
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 2: hundreds of me. So it's like for me, I'm still
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna get to where I need to get I'm like,
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 2: I'm pushing buttons, you know what I'm saying on a
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 2: different scale. And that's why I've set things up to
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 2: make sure that the exit strategies are built. Do not
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 2: build anything in your life and without an exit strategy,
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 2: and that's how you set yourself up for failure. And
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 2: when you learn how to build an exit strategy and
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 2: anything it is, you don't want to be tied to
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 2: something forever like that get, you know, unless it's now.
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 2: I'm not talking about people, the girl, you know whatever, family,
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 2: love and friends and that's different. But I'm talking about
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 2: companies because they're stressful. You build them, do it and
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 2: then you let somebody become the machine and move and
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 2: you either sit back and just get residuals forever, or
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 2: you put it in a place where it's gone and
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 2: you win and you can relax. It's about buying an
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 2: island and you know, growing your own fruit, stuff like that.
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 2: But yeah, you know, nothing is something is a real thing.
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: For me, it is and well, I just want to
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 1: thank you so much for cooking for me. Oh yeah,
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 1: and probably hands down one of the best storytellers, most animated.
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 1: I loved hearing your story and thank you so much
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 1: for taking time out of your day of course to
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 1: come down here.
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I appreciate you. I'm sycause oh yeah, I'm the
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 2: AI goggles too.
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 1: He got the AI and I'm obsessed with as.
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 2: So you know, I'm gonna be we got a bunch
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 2: of different stuff.
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 1: Your I could be your test, the person that tests,
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 1: because I'll keep it.
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 2: But if you pass out, I don't know what to
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 2: I'm just.
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 1: You know, but I'm saying like I could be like
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 1: the critical reviewer. I'll be like, I'll keep it all
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 1: the way real, no filter.
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna see. I just created a pet s D
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 2: program through sound therapy through frequent ancient frequencies like war
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 2: drums and waterfall and stuff. And I'll give you that
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 2: and see how you feel after going through like the
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 2: PTSD UH sound frequency. It's to to to calm like
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 2: for really for the military, for people that are overseas,
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 2: to calm their nerves when they're in the middle of Iraq.
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 2: You can zone out and jump into you know, or
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 2: wherever you're at, jumping to a frequency therapy program that
