  Speaker 4: You're right, it's about to be the really story you
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: ever heard in your life.
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: So I want to start. I want to start for
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: the lyrics. Actually, so you said you said all money
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: in like a bringstruck, no money out, like like a
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: pre nup. So when we talk about all money in,
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: obviously you like, you know, original member of all money in. Yeah,
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: So I want to get you your perspective on what
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: did all money in start as?
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: And what does all money in mean to you? Like?
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: What do what do those words mean to you? Because
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: it's like a mantra. How I look, Well, you know,
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: in the beginning, we were slaughter boys, you know what
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: I mean? Like that was that was that was what
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: it was. It was slaughtering boys, you feel me. And
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: then you know I had went to jail and I
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: came home and we was we were doing all money
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: in things. So I'm like, all right, it's all money
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: in no money out. You feel me like you know
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: to me what it means. It's like all money in.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: It's like a brotherhood, bro, like real talk, Like you know,
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: we've been knowing each other for a while. We've been
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like we kind of grew
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: up into this shit. You feel me, and we got
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: that sense of law to you with each other, bro.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: So it's like, you know, we'll go against the grain
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: for each other. You feel what I'm saying, Like, that's
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: the type of law to you we got. So you
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: know it's more than just a group. It's like a
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: family oriented the type of situation you feel me like
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: with us.
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: When you when you so all money in is interesting
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: because at the time, hip hop has always glorified spending money,
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: blowing money right, funk up a bag like that's always
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: been our culture for sure.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: To put all money in, what it really truly stands
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: for is like you know what I mean, stacking your bread, reinvesting.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: You know, I mean keeping it in, all money in
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: and no money out. But if it do go out,
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: make sure it's going out to double up.
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: That was that NIPS visional was y'all all on that
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: type of time in your neighborhood to be like your crew,
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: We're not just gonna be spending money crazy, like we're
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: going to invest the money and reinvest it.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, of course, Like you know, Bro looked
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: at it. Bro always looked at shit different. Bro, Like
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: he'll always take a situation and look at it different.
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: You feel me like I'm I'm blowing ship. I'm blowing
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: money for sure. I'm not saying nothing. Yeah, I'm not
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: saying nothing. Bro. Fast as I get it fast, I
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: spend it. So you know, that was one thing that
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: Bro did and still you know what I mean, just
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: even just watching even just watching him, Bro, he didn't
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: even have to let niggas know like what he was doing,
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: just watching him, Bro, like oh yeah, he's oh yeah,
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: he's stacking Bro saving like he ain't just with Bro
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: spind but at the end of the day, like you
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: gotta have spending money and you gotta have your feel
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: like did he get that from Sam?
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: Because I've been around saying Alione saying remind me of
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: like old hustles that I used to know.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: That was like Sam, your number one ultimate hustler, Bro,
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: Like low key, I don't I don't know, No, Nigga
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: that hustle like him. Bro, He get up in the
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: morning bro, and and get to it. Bro, Like it's no,
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: there's no there's no playtime with him, Like he get
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: to it. You feel me. So he always had that
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: hustler mentality, bro, Like even when you know, I did
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: my first CD, like not my first CD, but like
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: a mixtape. I recorded it in his house, you know
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: what I mean, Like printed the CDs up in his
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: house and all that shit. So when it was time
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: for me to give them one, I'm like, here, bro,
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: he still gave me like five dollars. You feel what
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: I'm saying. I'm like, nah, Nigga, this is you. You
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: feel me? Like Nigga, I recorded this shit in your house.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: Nigga used it, equipment, all that shit. Nigga, here, Bro,
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: just press play. He's like nah, Bro, like here, you
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: feel me? And so when I've seen that, I'm like,
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: if bro, if Bro can do that, like anybody can
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: do it. You feel what I'm saying, like anybody can
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: be on that type of time. Not saying that everybody.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: I expect everybody giving Nigga some money for a tape.
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: You feel me? Because I wasn't even expecting that here
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: just press play. You feel me. So when it just
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: made me look at it different, you feel me.
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: I can see the same influence, obviously the influence, but
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: even like you said, you blow them money fast and
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: even at one point, like every time there's a big
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: moment for the crew, like you might have made a
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: decision that they got you locked up at a certain point,
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: it hits you like I look up to these guys,
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: but I'm disappointing them at the same time.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: Does that conflective? Well, at least I thought I was
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: bro Like, you know, I get out and you know,
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: I let niggas know where programmed my mom Like I ain't.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: I ain't on the bullshit. This what I'm on. You
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: feel me because I see I see us elevating, you
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: know what I mean. I'll be out for all the
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: all the recording. I'd be out for the recording process,
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: never get to the album release, you know what I mean.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: Like when it's time to drop the music, I'm gone.
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: You feel me. But like Sama makes show like he'll
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: flood my shell with pictures and you know, keep me
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: updated on what's going on. You feel me. So I
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: was always in a loop on that sense, but I
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: always thought it was a slap in the face. You
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: feel me, But like when I get on the phone
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: with them, they'll always uplift me and be like, bro,
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: we waiting on you. Just come home, nigga, be on
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: your ship. You feel me like they ain't never like
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: I feel like I let them down. You feel me.
• 10:50
  Speaker 7: That's interesting because I look at from the east side, right,
• 10:54
  Speaker 7: I've seen the whole build in development of when it
• 10:59
  Speaker 7: was lost and bull all money in obviously, I know
• 11:02
  Speaker 7: when you went in, you got out, you know, and
• 11:05
  Speaker 7: how we're talking about how Sam kind of set things
• 11:09
  Speaker 7: up for you. So when you got out, all you
• 11:11
  Speaker 7: have to do is get back in motion. Right, So
• 11:14
  Speaker 7: the question I got is how important is structure? Like
• 11:18
  Speaker 7: I also feel like all money and means structure and
• 11:21
  Speaker 7: an organization of people who are putting all their resources
• 11:25
  Speaker 7: in all their intellect to help grow the brand.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: Like, how important is that structure? It is, bro, Like,
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: it's definitely structure. Discipline, you feel me, Like, you know
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: we all we all uplift each other, bro, Like we
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: encourage each other to read, you know what I mean,
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: and work out exercise, you know what I mean? Like
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: just just just be on, be on, be on your
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: be on your tip, Bro every morning. You feel me.
• 11:49

• 11:53
  Speaker 3: take your team like way far.
• 11:55
  Speaker 7: Bro.

• 11:58
  Speaker 3: on the same page. You feel me like you know,
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: we're gonna disagree. You feel me, but like we got
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: to get back to the chili. We gotta get back
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: to the program. You feel me like, you know, we
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: spoke to the whole crew, right.
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: We sat with bah pat Kybi kyby pretty much every
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: time we come here, we make sure we tap in,
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: and they said, y'all gotta talk to Stone because his
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: relationship with Bro is different. That's how like doing the

  Speaker 3: Dupriez bro like CEOs, you know what I mean. Like, so, yeah,
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: that was the thing. Even when I was like eight
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: years old. I always want to own my own record
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: label anyway you feel me? So you know, independencey was
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: the thing. Bro. That's dope.
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, So let me ask you this as far as
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: coming from LA, another part of you guys' legacy is
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: obviously the gang the gang culture. So, like, you know,
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: I think it's an interesting dynamic that you guys have
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: in LA. I mean, it's it's spread all over the
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: world now, but it's different than in LA than it
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: is like in New York. Yeah, So how did that
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: impact on the music side? Because even talking to Pack
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: and he was just like, you know it kind of
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: he can't even sell to a certain demographic of people
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: because of his gang. Yeah, I mean it's like they
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: and he was like, oh, he regrets actually even joining
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: a gang because he was like, if he had to
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: do it again, he would just be the same person
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: without being gang affiliated. Yeah, because he's like it just
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: brought so much negative energy and alienated so many other people.
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: That it kind of hurt business. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, bro,
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: Like the culture of it. For one thing, it is
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: what it is, you know what I mean, It is
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: what it is. You feel me. Ain't now we can
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: change you feel me. But at the end of the day,
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: like it did, it did shape hip hop at the
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: end of the day, you feel me because in the
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: beginning you had, you had this certain style of rap,
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: you feel me, and then the nineties came in, it
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: was it was another style of rap, you feel me,
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: and it was just like us just giving all our story,
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, giving y'all our stories. Just
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: what we see on the on the on a day
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: to day basis just what we go through. We go
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: through police brutality, we go through games, niggas hitting us up,
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Like we go outside, bro,
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: like it's a million homies outside, like you know what
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: I mean. So I feel like we just you know,
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: on the West Coast tip, we just took that and
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: just kind of like just put it into the music.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: And for us, you know, I wouldn't know what the
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: other side is doing or what anybody is do until
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: you hear the music, Like, oh, that's what they got
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: going on over there, all right for sure. So we
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: tapping in with them. We listening to the Bloods, the
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: Bloods listening to the Crypts, you know what I mean,
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: like more than they listening to that shit, because I
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: know y'all know about the banging on wax thing. You
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: feel me, like the Crips and blood getting on one album,
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: and yeah, you feel me. So you know, it went
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: from that to like niggas really actually getting money together.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, really actually like politicking together, you know what
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: I mean against the bullshit, you know what I mean,
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: instead of bringing the bullshit to the table. You feel me, so,
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: you know. And the first ones I seen't do it
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: was a mac ten dubc ice QB. You feel me, yeah, yeah,
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: because because if you look at it like yeah Dub
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: seeing mac ten like on some street ship they ain't
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: supposed to be together, do you feel me? Like enemies,
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: know what I mean, like on some street shit it's
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: supposed to be on. Back then, it was different, you
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: know what I mean? It was it was it was
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: really owned back then. You feel me?
• 16:58
  Speaker 7: So?
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: Does that breeds reread the way for it had to
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: bro I mean, you know what I mean? It was
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: the first wave of it. I can say that you
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: feel me. That's interesting.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: But because I was reading some of the marketing plans,
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: like how do we get music into the neighborhood, and
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: so there was like this marketing strategy and correct me
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: if I'm wrong with y'all.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Will find young ladies, put the smokers too, bro like
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: everybody to go to other hood, give them some I mean,
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: we'll do we like, we'll do the young homies, you
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: know what I mean, had them, We'll give them some weeds,
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: some money, and then they'll do it in the hood.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: But like the places that we couldn't go because you know,
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: we ain't sending them over there. We're not going over
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: there either. So you know, we'll we'll pay a couple
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: of smokers that go over there, you know what I mean,
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: put some posters up over there in Inglewood or Manchester
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: or something like that. You feel me, and uh, you know,
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: we'll drive by and see if our ship was taking
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: out of something. Times sometimes it was disrespect, sometimes it
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: was love. You feel me, you know how it go?
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: You feel me?
• 18:04
  Speaker 7: Like it's interesting because if we really take a look
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: at hip hop and people from the outside of the West,
• 18:12
  Speaker 7: West Coast look at gang culture like, oh, it's impossible
• 18:16
  Speaker 7: for bloods and cryptstuff.
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: But to get on wax.
• 18:21
  Speaker 7: You know west Side mac Tin signed Glasses Malone. That's
• 18:26
  Speaker 7: another local native glasses from Seventh Street, Crypt and from
• 18:31
  Speaker 7: Yeah shout out to like real blood right then you got,
• 18:36
  Speaker 7: I mean, look at what the bro did nip and
• 18:39
  Speaker 7: kill a twine. First of all, you very rarely are
• 18:42
  Speaker 7: seldomly will see a west Side and east Side connection
• 18:46
  Speaker 7: like that, let alone crypt blood.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: It's like boundaries you ain't you You're not going to cross,
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Like your homeboys, your friends,
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: your family members, they know you so well they feel like, well, shit,
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: I can, I can, I can pay you back whenever
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: I ain't never got to pay you back, or I
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: can you know what I mean. Like if certain people
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: feel too comfortable, bro, you know what I mean, or
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: too entitled or whatever, but like you know, so to speak,
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: your op, your enemy, somebody from the other side. You
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: feel me like the boundaries is gonna be different because
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: it's already a level of respect already, you know what
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: I mean. So you know it's certain boundaries that ain't
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: gonna be We forgot the actual most successful Snoop, Sugar
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: and Snoop Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. And it wasn't
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: no secret the greatest. It wasn't no secret what these
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: dudes was from. You know what I mean, wasn't no
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: secret what do your dudes are from? And what they
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: was representing? You know what I mean. Snoop didn't hide it.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: He lets you know. It's just like Sugar didn't hide it.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: He lets you know. You feel me. But just to
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: see that even happening, because like the darg Pound was
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: over there, and I'm like, and I was young too,
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: but like I know, I know the streets, you know
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: what I mean, Like I know the streets. You feel me,
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: so I know what kind of situation that was over
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: But I should be thinking, like, damn, I wonder if
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: like you know what I mean, like you know, if
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: it's actively yeah, if it'd be all like that, and
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: then later you grow up and you hear the stories
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: and ship you feel me. They went through the ship.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: It was real over there, but they held it down.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Though they held it down, they protected each other, They
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: protected them in I want.
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: I want to talk about l A because I feel
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: like la It's an interesting place for a variety of
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: different reasons. Obviously, the weather is nice and it's beautiful
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: palm tree. The weather is cracking, man, for sure, it's
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: the best. You can't you can't really the weather is
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: up and down.
• 20:35
  Speaker 7: Bro.
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: You you don't know where high as weather. It was trash,
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: actually it was. That's a lot. Trash is a lot. Yeah. No,
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: last time y'all came, it was yeah, like it was.
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: It was raining like like a month straight.
• 20:48
  Speaker 7: Bro.
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: I take a rain of snow any day. But but
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: l A, you know, it's r I P. Pop smoked,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: r P P and b Rock.
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: So many people absolutely who were legends on their way
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: to becoming legends that unfortunately passed away for really nothing.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: If you look at it, and it's a dollar too, man,
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: the dollar.
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: First, So it's like, you know, obviously LA is a
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: place where you know, people get robbed a lot.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: So that's part of the situation. But now you get
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: robbed anywhere. Man. You go to the Bay Area, many
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: talk to us, man, Bro, New York they mugging niggas man.
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: Look back then, back in the day. I don't know
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: about now, but like back then in New York, like
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: you have to know at least like one person. Bro,
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: if you knew one name, you was good. If you
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: didn't know nobody like you out here from where son?
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: Who you know? You don't know nobody, that's your fair game.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: If you don't know one person, your fair game.
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: But but what has caused all of all the murders
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: and all like, because that's unique, tol Like, I don't
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: feel like no place has had as many hip hop
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: murders than Los Angeles.
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: I don't know, Bro, I don't have to dig into
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: the senses of the data report. Go back to the
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: word structure though, right is it?
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: Because there's a lack of structure we see, Like I said,
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: this is something that's unique to your region of the country,
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: not really us, but even here it's just like there's
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: all different types of sets and games.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: There's really no structure. So like if it was more
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: like OG's and order homies that like motivate the youngsters,
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: you feel me like even if like you know you
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: hear you hear one of the young homies say they
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: want to be a doctor, they want to be a lawyer.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: They like encourage them, you know what I mean, to
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: go to go do that? You know what I mean?
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: Like because back then, like I was, I was rapping
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: since I was eight years old. Bro. But like if
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: like somebody would have like pushed me to actually like
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: really get further, I would have been I probably would
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: have I probably would have been hit the scene already,
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: you feel me. But like it wasn't nobody really around
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: us really to have really like influenced us to it. Yeah,
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: no guidance, bro, Like you know what I mean, We
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: all trying to be the best treacherous nigga in the hood,
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: right instead of you know what I mean, like getting
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: a bag versus the out like the South. You know,
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: they they young, bro, They young and they want some money.
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: You feel me, They young and they want a bag.
• 23:07
  Speaker 7: Bro.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: Like when we were young, we didn't think about no bag. Bro.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: We don't want to get no money, bro. We want
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: to terll rig the streets me. So I just feel like, bro,
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: we just got to start giving the game a little bit, bro,
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: like giving them a little bit more direction.
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: Eight years old, I'm like eight years old, are you
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: Memphis Stone at this time? Because I remember hearing Memphis
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: Stone and then here Jason, I'm like you no.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: Infant, no, no infant strong infantrong. Yeah, that wasn't Memphis tho. No,
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: I was never been phased on. But the way I
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: said it, No, the way I said it, I'm memphised,
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: I'm infant Stone. But I didn't say I'm infant I
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: said I'm Memphis Stone. Like, so I get I get
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: said Memphis. I thought it was Memphis Stone. No, it's
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: infant strong. What does that mean? That's like infinity stone. Yeah,
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: number number five. Yeah, I'm number five. You feel me
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: like like my neighborhood only only did like went to
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: only go to Tiny's. You feel me like you got
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: a big, little baby and tiny. You feel me like
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: my hood didn't do like infants, but big, little baby
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: and tiny. Gang culture stuff.
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: Like people name big or they mean little baby, this
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: and tiny, But that's that's people.
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: It's like a little family tree. You got the big,
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: the little, the baby, and the tiny.
• 24:28
  Speaker 7: And g Blone taught me like he one of the
• 24:30
  Speaker 7: ones who really broke down gang culture from a business perspective.
• 24:35
  Speaker 7: He said, it's one of the most structured businesses that
• 24:39
  Speaker 7: we could possibly imagine. Just look at that in general,
• 24:42
  Speaker 7: there's a hierarchy of in a chain of command and
• 24:46
  Speaker 7: how you move when you're from a hood. Oh you
• 24:49
  Speaker 7: got infant gotta respond to, baby gotta respond, the little
• 24:53
  Speaker 7: gotta respond, and then the big is the one. Pretty
• 24:56
  Speaker 7: much if you look at it from a business structure,
• 24:58
  Speaker 7: imagine when you tie in investment money and how the
• 25:01
  Speaker 7: money comes in this ship?
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: Is is really is really well?
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: I want to ask both of you guys this question
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: because the corporate litter, yeah, speaking of business, the corporate
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: latter fact it has it actually has turned into a business, honestly.
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: And you know when you look at music, when you
• 25:17
  Speaker 5: look at fashion, it's people made money off of that culture.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: Right, do you feel like it got exploited like.
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: By like because when it reached mainstream, now you got
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: people that's making clothes based off of rags.
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: Youee what I mean? You know hip hop always been
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: based on in the streets. You know what I'm saying,
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: were like what the streets is doing, What we're wearing,
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: how we're rocking our hats, you know what I mean?
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: Like the music we're doing. You feel me, like the style?
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: You feel me? So once once the industry got to it,
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: once it got mainstream, you know what I mean, like
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: they they looked at it.
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: I remember Puma, they said, nip Has said, like Puma
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: wanted to put like Rich rolling on or something on
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: a pair of sneakers, and he was like, Yo, you can't.
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: I'm not authorized to do that.
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: Like say, like you crossing lines that it's people serving
• 26:06
  Speaker 5: jail time behind that, Like it's not. But I'm just saying,
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: like somebody in corporate had to actually come up with
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: the idea, like, oh, this is something that we should do.
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: So I just look at it, like, you know, it's
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: interesting how something starts one way and it turns into
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: like a commercialized business.
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: I'll speak to I won't speak too much out of
• 26:25
  Speaker 7: respect for the culture because I never got quartered on
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: a like I never got put on right. I just
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: was one of those dudes who knew everybody in my
• 26:32
  Speaker 7: neighborhood because I played football and basketball. But certain history,
• 26:38
  Speaker 7: like why certain gangs in certain neighborhoods even started. They
• 26:41
  Speaker 7: were like community organizations. It was like a development strategy
• 26:47
  Speaker 7: to help feed the people, build parks, do different things
• 26:52
  Speaker 7: like that.
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: And after school a true.
• 26:55
  Speaker 7: Story, a true after school programs, a true story what
• 26:59
  Speaker 7: happened in my community.
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: I was doing.
• 27:02
  Speaker 7: I was doing cow trans and one of the the
• 27:05
  Speaker 7: drivers for those who don't know what cal trands is,
• 27:08
  Speaker 7: like the people cleaning up on the freeway after you
• 27:11
  Speaker 7: fuck up and you.
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to clean up.
• 27:14
  Speaker 7: So I was doing cal trans and it was an
• 27:17
  Speaker 7: og dude, it was a driver. He was like, it's
• 27:19
  Speaker 7: interesting because you know he was a crip e didn
• 27:23
  Speaker 7: you know, I'm not gonna say with hood and he said,
• 27:26
  Speaker 7: there are certain law enforcement who would come into the
• 27:30
  Speaker 7: neighborhood and destroy the playgrounds that the Crypts would build,
• 27:35
  Speaker 7: and disrupt the food program and say that the Bloods
• 27:39
  Speaker 7: did it, and then they would do vice versa. And
• 27:42
  Speaker 7: that's kind of in that in a specific neighborhood, how
• 27:46
  Speaker 7: like feudon started between But the reason why I told
• 27:48
  Speaker 7: this story is to show the separation between what it
• 27:52
  Speaker 7: really was focused on in certain neighborhoods. It was about
• 27:55
  Speaker 7: community organizing, helping, community serving, helping, and then eventually after.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: The and to stop the police brutality. Like that was
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: like number one for us because you know what I mean, California,
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: Like you know, that was our racism, you know what
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, Like you know in the South they had
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: you know, it was it was it was really good
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: in the South, with the with the with the with
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: with the racism within me, and like we didn't really
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: have it as bad as the South did, but we
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: did though far as like with the police brutality, that's
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: damn near the.
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: Same redline pays a partners as well, Like you divide
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: neighborhoods very intending, not even you desired, like the state
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: of country decides absolutely, this is where you're going to live.
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: We're going to segregate these people. You stay on this
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: side of the railroad, and that's where you're going to stay.
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: And then let's put the put our communities against each other.
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: What do you think about the time with in now though?
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: Because like the marathon is such a huge movement, six
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: what you got going on, such a huge movement. Can
• 28:56
  Speaker 4: we get back to that point where it is community
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: development with giving back. We are going to lift a
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: kid who decides that he wants to be a computer engineer.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: We're going to say, all right, let's nurture around him.
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: Can we are we at a point now where we're
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: something to see a change.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: I feel like it's coming back. It's starting to come
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: back to that, you know what I mean, because you
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: know some of us is getting it. A lot of
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: us is getting it a little late, some of us
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: get it a little early, some of us never get it,
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. But like you know, I
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: feel like it's coming back to that community revolution progress,
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, just with the just where
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: you know, just foundations and anything for the youth and
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: you know, anything community wise building and you know what
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: I mean, helping us grow. Bro's that's really what it's about.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: And I feel like it's coming back today.
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: But that's what Nip said, right, live long enough to
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: see a third generation South Central game, enough to see
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: it change exactly.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: So I just feel like we we like twenty thirty
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: years a little bit more behind. You feel me like
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: we're getting it, you feel me. But I'm talking about
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: for us to really get it, Like I just said that,
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: it might take another generation or two. But you know
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: that's you know, that's what that's what they do. They
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: plan for generations. So while we can't playing for generations,
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: you know, it might take a hundred years, bro, Like
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: it might take another hundred years. We might be sixty
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: years behind, bro, you know what I mean with the
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: with the game and the knowledge, but we're getting it
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: back though.
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: The way you just said we're getting it it reminded
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: me of the first time we ran into you in Houston.

  Speaker 5: he was like yo, He's like yeah. He was like,
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: you know what's crazy is that Stone is probably out
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: of everybody, he's probably the one that's tapped in the most.
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: So as man. But let me we all are though,
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, we all no, not for sure.
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: So let me ask you about the music.
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: So you got the album and you have a four
• 31:08
  Speaker 5: part series to this, right, Yeah, it's like like a
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: movie like The Godfather type.

• 31:33
  Speaker 3: be called. I didn't know what the title was gonna be.
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: So I'm just listening to all these songs and I'm
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: trying to figure out what I'm talking about the most,
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: what messages putting out? Like what is people getting from it?
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: Like if I was the listener, if I was the audience,

  Speaker 3: that's incredible, you feel me? And yeah, I just stuck
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: with it. Bro, I said, what's each one? It's definition

  Speaker 3: get to the success. You feel me. That's how I
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: was able to get to the success and make them sacrifice.
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: So like for the Success album, is it songs that
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: aligned with that success team?
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah see because like the lord t album, that's
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: basically like what I was on. He like you giving game,
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: you like letting him know, like how it is you

  Speaker 4: Making That's the conversation we kind of have yesterday, like
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: is it okay to be vulnerable?
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 42:27
  Speaker 4: There's a psigona that comes along with the lifestyle. But
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: amongst each other, are we careful?
• 42:32
  Speaker 6: You know?
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: I mean you know what I mean, Like, you know
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: it's gonna be times when it you know.
• 42:36
  Speaker 7: But just be careful though who you vulnerable around, they'll
• 42:40
  Speaker 7: take advantage of your weakness.
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: Feel me exactly, and you'll find yourself not even knowing
• 42:46
  Speaker 3: somebody trying to finess you know what I mean.
• 42:48
  Speaker 5: But I also think like we wasn't really taught to
• 42:51
  Speaker 5: talk about all problems. Yeah, I mean, like at least
• 42:54
  Speaker 5: like how I was raised, I wasn't really I'm still
• 42:56
  Speaker 5: not I don't really feel comfortable talking about more problems
• 42:59
  Speaker 5: like that.
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: It's uncomfortable. Yeah, it puts you in a different state.
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: It definitely puts you in a different state of mind though.
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: For sure it tap you back into that. You feel me,
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: Especially if you're trying to get through some ship, you
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: don't want to relive it again exactly.
• 43:17
  Speaker 5: Just it's just you just running, not even thinking about it,
• 43:20
  Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying, Like, just like y'all don't
• 43:21
  Speaker 5: want to talk about that ship.
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so I've been exercising that, bro, like trying to
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: x that ship out of my brain. Bro, when it
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: when it, when it pop up, you feel me like,
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: you know, I just don't think about it, Bro, I
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: try not to think about it, you feel me.
• 43:36
  Speaker 5: I guess that's why I think I never went to
• 43:37
  Speaker 5: therapy before. But I'm assuming that's the point of going
• 43:40
  Speaker 5: to therapy is you're talking to somebody, so like the
• 43:43
  Speaker 5: things that you're just trying to block out for a
• 43:44
  Speaker 5: long time, you can actually just get it out with
• 43:47
  Speaker 5: somebody that's not judging you, somebody that you don't know personally.
• 43:51
  Speaker 4: Because if you compartmentalize at some point, it might rear
• 43:54
  Speaker 4: its head again.
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: It's the jline, right, I can't run from the pain,
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: run to you're gonna Yeah, I was one of the
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: ones that bottled the pain in, bro. I didn't never.
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: I used to never talk about my problems. Nobody, nobody
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: never knew what was going on, Like nobody knew, Like
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: I smile, you feel me, not even knowing, like hurting
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: on it. Yeah, like not even knowing. Bro, I'm going
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: through some shit. You feel me, But like, yeah, broy,
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: it's interesting.
• 44:21
  Speaker 7: There are studies done on like neurological studies on the
• 44:25
  Speaker 7: effects of bottling in problems, and it actually affects you
• 44:30
  Speaker 7: way worse than it does talking about it, right, because
• 44:35
  Speaker 7: it produces unneeded or unnecessary stress on top of what
• 44:40
  Speaker 7: you're already experiencing from the trauma effects of what happened.
• 44:44
  Speaker 7: And then we already know stress is one of the
• 44:47
  Speaker 7: top killers in the world.
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: So I think that's a depression. Oh man, stress is
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: one thing, but.
• 44:54
  Speaker 7: Like stress leads to depression, yeah, and depression is long
• 44:59
  Speaker 7: term the stresses in the moment.
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: But I feel like we all human, We all gonna
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: deal with these emotions, were all gonna get these emotions,
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: ain't nobody Nobody ex from none of it, bro, Like
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: the human beings. So you know what I mean, it's
• 45:12
  Speaker 3: all experience. We're gonna we experience in life, you feel me.
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be things that get to us, the only
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: things that make us feel good, the only things that
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: fuck us up in the head. Like damn, I just
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: seen some ship. Yeah I snap out of that, like
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: you feel me type shit. The reality. The reality is
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: people understand.
• 45:30
  Speaker 7: And sometimes I gotta use science, man, because in mathematics,
• 45:34
  Speaker 7: because it helps bring clarity to a lot of things.
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: In life.
• 45:37
  Speaker 7: We all made up of atoms, plus and minus, particles, protons,
• 45:41
  Speaker 7: new trunks, right, energy.
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: Exactly. So you can't even exist without positive and negative. Yeah,
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: it ain't gonna work. And the energy ain't gonna work. Right,
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: We're dealing with energy, bro, negative and the positive. It's
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: like a battery, Bro, it won't work bro without a negative.
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: And then there's so much trump. Like I have a
• 45:58

• 56:49
  Speaker 5: they could tell they wasn't active, so they really started laughing,
• 56:52
  Speaker 5: like you could.
• 56:52
  Speaker 3: You got to just play attention. But it's like, nah,
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: that's the LCNE too, because that's not in the script.
• 56:57
  Speaker 3: Shouts the bone freestyle freestyle that.
• 57:00
  Speaker 5: Thenzelth one of the greatest actssable ever.
• 57:03
  Speaker 3: No, he is bro. He played the ship out of
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: American Gangster. Amer He made a whole album about American gangster. Yeah,
• 57:09
  Speaker 3: he did that's whole I mean that move, I mean
• 57:13
  Speaker 3: that movie. I mean but see he's seen it before
• 57:16
  Speaker 3: everybody else, so it was like, yeah, you feel me.
• 57:20
  Speaker 3: He was like ten steps ahead of a lot of shit.
• 57:23
  Speaker 3: So who's teaching you? Like you just teaching yourself about
• 57:26
  Speaker 3: how to how to shoot? I mean, I got a vision, bro,
• 57:31
  Speaker 3: I always wanted to do this ship. When I was young,
• 57:33
  Speaker 3: I write scripts. Yeah, I write movie scrips and ship.
• 57:36
  Speaker 3: When I was in jail, I wrote like six movie scripts,
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: read books how to write screenplays and shit like that.
• 57:43
  Speaker 3: How was it the write script?
• 57:44
  Speaker 5: Can we interview ice Cube and He was saying that
• 57:46
  Speaker 5: if you could write a rap, you could write a script.
• 57:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Script is easier than anything, bro, because the script
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: you don't got to put too much detail, Like this
• 57:54
  Speaker 3: room right here, We don't got to describe all this
• 57:57
  Speaker 3: ship in the room. All we gotta do is say, uh, interior,
• 58:03
  Speaker 3: podcast or room or whatever. You feel me. Like the
• 58:06
  Speaker 3: directors and the set directors, that's their job to figure out, Yeah,
• 58:11
  Speaker 3: to do all this shit, you feel me? You just
• 58:13
  Speaker 3: you just dialogue. Scrippers, just dialogue.
• 58:16
  Speaker 5: Like podcast, studio, blue setting, and then it's up to.
• 58:20
  Speaker 3: You don't know what it's gonna look like unless you
• 58:22
  Speaker 3: got that directorial vision and you kind of already know
• 58:25
  Speaker 3: what it's gonna look like. But once the script is
• 58:27
  Speaker 3: out of your hands, bro, Like that's the line producer,
• 58:31
  Speaker 3: Do you know what I mean with the director part
• 58:33
  Speaker 3: of it? Unless you direct in the movie, you feel me,
• 58:36
  Speaker 3: are you producing it? But scriptwriting is like a book
• 58:41
  Speaker 3: is ten times harder than writing a screenplay. Screenplay, you
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: can be done with that shit easy. Like a book
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: is too much detail, bro, It's like it's a certain
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: way you got to do it. And even though a
• 58:50
  Speaker 3: screenplay is a certain way to do it. But like
• 58:53
  Speaker 3: you wrote the book before, Yeah, but I didn't. I
• 58:56
  Speaker 3: didn't finish it through I start. I mean I got
• 58:58
  Speaker 3: enough pages to publish that shit it in jail. Yeah,
• 59:01
  Speaker 3: So you was always into writing, Yeah, Bro, I'm a
• 59:04
  Speaker 3: call writer, bro being I was eight years old passing
• 59:07
  Speaker 3: out tapes, bro in elementary you know what I mean?
• 59:11
  Speaker 5: See something like that. It's just interesting because a lot
• 59:13
  Speaker 5: of people are struggle writing. Yeah, and especially like if
• 59:17
  Speaker 5: you're not taught properly in school whatever, Like that's not
• 59:19
  Speaker 5: something that's easy to do with to write.
• 59:20
  Speaker 3: So I don't know who taught me how to write,
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: who taught me how to read? But Bro, at eight
• 59:25
  Speaker 3: nine years old, I had like a journal, Bro, I
• 59:29

• 59:31
  Speaker 3: My cousins seeing that shit was like, damn, that's kind
• 59:33
  Speaker 3: of creative. But I don't think she really like was
• 59:35
  Speaker 3: tapped in. My Auntie was the one was tapped in,
• 59:38
  Speaker 3: like yeah, and gave me that karaoke machine box for
• 59:41
  Speaker 3: the tapes nigga. Feel a box for the tapes Nigga
• 59:45
  Speaker 3: from Aretha Franklin Nigga to uh doctor Drake. Bro. I
• 59:49
  Speaker 3: was surprised she had doctor Drake instrumentals in that motherfucker.
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: I'm like, oh all right, I'm getting cracking. I learned
• 59:55
  Speaker 3: they words and then I started saying my own shit.
• 59:57
  Speaker 3: So that helped you. That helped you doing during prison
• 59:59
  Speaker 3: was being able to write and write more because I
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 3: got time now, you know what I mean being in jail.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 3: I never wrote that much ever in my life. I'm
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 3: talking about from letters to just just you just anything, bro, stories,
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 3: how many girls the nigga didn't fuck? I'm writing everything right?
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: So yeah, Bro, I just wrote. I wrote my life. Bro,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 3: just kept writing my life, putting pieces onto it. You
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: feel me because it was going to turn into a
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 3: script afterwards. But are there any writers that inspire you?
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 6: Like what?
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Nikki Turner? Bro Hell Yeah, Nikki Turner Nope, dope writer.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah you know what I mean. I don't know if

• 1:00:47
  Speaker 3: know what I mean, A hustler's wife too. Yeah, she
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 3: dope bro, female too. When you was writing, I remember
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 3: part of the story is like, yes, you're writing. They
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 3: calling you like are you writing? Making sure you're writing
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 3: when you get back here? You know your laps? Yeah,
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 3: I used to talk to this. He's like, hey, Stone,
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 3: you in there writing. I'm like yeah, he like, man,
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 3: like that's all I hey, that's all I wanted to know.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 3: And I just wanted to know if you was in
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 3: there motivated. Still you feel me good. You can go
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 3: in there and lose your motivation. Bro. You can think
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 3: it's off with bro and not right or damn rap.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 4: But part of that time, there's another integral part of
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 4: your life that that's transpiring in that's fatherhood. Yeah, talk
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 4: about what it changed my life, What that did to
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 4: you as you're writing, as you know that you're away
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 4: from from you know, the next generation. The whole movement
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 4: is about legacy.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 3: I mean it went. It went for me like you
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 3: know what I mean, you expected to unexpected and now
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 3: that you're in that position to fill your shoes, I mean,
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 3: to fell them shoes you can be. You can be
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 3: your dad ten times better. You know what I mean,
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 3: to your kid? You feel me. So that's just that's
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 3: all that shit was. But I think that like not
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 3: having him in my life with the blueprint, you know
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 3: what I mean, because maybe you know, if we did
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 3: have parents, a lot of us live perfect lives. Bro,
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 3: But then a lot of us don't because a lot
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 3: of us that have both our parents and still go

• 1:02:52
  Speaker 3: you know, like he said, we was hanging out because

• 1:02:56
  Speaker 3: to go. We ain't have shit to do, bro, We

• 1:03:01

  Speaker 5: But like like you said, it's fast. It was fascinating
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 5: from cultural music and everything, Like you know, it's just

  Speaker 5: like HiPE Williams, Like he one of the greatest directors

• 1:03:14
  Speaker 5: Las Vegas, and then you go to the projects and

  Speaker 3: I always just knew I was going to the hood
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 3: when I was going to New York. But already, like
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 3: I knew New York was gonna be like one of

• 1:03:47
  Speaker 3: motherfuckers y'all breathe you feel me like we breathed them,

  Speaker 4: So we just came from from Texas and one of
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 4: the things that they were saying shout to the Doug
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 4: and it was like, you know what, we we all
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 4: own country here in Texas.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 3: You'll have to leave here to make money for sure.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 4: Is it similar here in Cali where it's like, yeah,
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 4: it's cool to go on on the nationwide tour, but
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 4: we can really just go to a bunch of cities
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 4: here in the state and really.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 3: Just do It's similar to it ain't like that here,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 3: but I mean for the West coast, Yeah, you can
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 3: go in Cheatle get that love. Go to Denver, get
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 3: that love, Go to Utah, get that love. Yeah, you
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 3: know what I mean. Arizona, Arizona, Vegas, shit like that.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 3: But like doing a La run, I mean where you're
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 3: gonna go. You're gonna go La Hollywood, Orange County. That's
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 3: pretty much it. Who doing shows in Loan Beach like

  Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Like so you can't really
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 3: do no for l run. You can do a Cali
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 3: run for sure. Yeah, all of that for sure. But
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 3: for some reason, Bro, Texas is different. Bro, they show
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 3: up for their people. They show up, They show up
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 3: for their people. Bro, I don't care what you're doing. Man,

• 1:07:24
  Speaker 3: the support system is different.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 7: I think it's a level of like appreciation and reverence
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 7: for the artists that make it in Texas. Like they
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 7: protect them, right, they care about them l A. I

  Speaker 7: see you might just be sitting down eating and puff
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 7: walk in you know what I mean. Beyonce sitting down

• 1:07:52
  Speaker 7: think is like popping, right. People get used to that
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 7: and they like, oh well, I don't I don't have
