- 1:37Speaker 4: But we going to start off, I got to start
- 1:39Speaker 4: off with Dirk Trial first. You was there from day
- 1:42Speaker 4: one to the end. You know, there was fans out there.
- 1:46Speaker 4: Some people liked you. Some people hate you. You had security.
- 1:49Speaker 4: I see you got big man out there. You always
- 1:51Speaker 4: go with security.
- 1:52Speaker 3: I always told these guys, don't mess with these guys.
- 1:54Speaker 4: These are podcasting guys and streamers. They got professional security, y'all.
- 1:59Speaker 4: Tell me what day one was like of Dirk Trial.
- 2:02Speaker 2: Man, it was crazy. I just want to say thank
- 2:04Speaker 2: you for having me here. I appreciate it.
- 2:06Speaker 1: We thank you for being here, man.
- 2:07Speaker 2: No, this is a blessing, man. This is amazing. I'm
- 2:09Speaker 2: so grateful. So I It was crazy, to be honest
- 2:12Speaker 2: with you. So, you know, if anybody that's been following
- 2:14Speaker 2: me for a while, they know that, you know, I
- 2:16Speaker 2: do these documentaries. Really, I'm a homebody. I usually just
- 2:18Speaker 2: be at home doing my research, you know, on different websites, Reddit, Google, YouTube,
- 2:23Speaker 2: police reports, you know, legal paperwork, anything I can about
- 2:26Speaker 2: a case. My whole thing is like, I like to
- 2:28Speaker 2: learn just everything there is, all the lyrics, all the reports,
- 2:32Speaker 2: any other document, just everything. So I've been covering this
- 2:36Speaker 2: David case of that singer who was found.
- 2:38Speaker 1: You know, just a little girl. Yeah.
- 2:40Speaker 2: You know, rest in peace to Celeste, a horrible situation.
- 2:45Speaker 2: But so that was my first experience.
- 2:47Speaker 3: I was in L.A.
- 2:47Speaker 2: At the time and I just said, oh, I wonder
- 2:49Speaker 2: if it's difficult to get into the courthouse. Maybe I'll
- 2:51Speaker 2: just see what's going on with some of these hearings.
- 2:54Speaker 2: You know, I went over to the courthouse and, you know,
- 2:56Speaker 2: I learned very quickly that in the U.S., you know, it's.
- 3:00Speaker 2: is your right as an American, if you're being accused
- 3:02Speaker 2: of a crime by the state, it's your right to
- 3:04Speaker 2: have a public trial.
- 3:05Speaker 3: It's transparent.
- 3:06Speaker 2: They can't hide that from the public. They can't secretly
- 3:08Speaker 2: put charges on you and put you away forever without
- 3:10Speaker 2: people being able to come and check and watch what's
- 3:12Speaker 2: going on. So after that, I started going to all
- 3:14Speaker 2: of the David hearing dates. And obviously, you know, I'd
- 3:17Speaker 2: covered Lil Durk for years. I'd done different documentaries about him,
- 3:19Speaker 2: King Von, obviously that situation, Oblock, all of that was
- 3:23Speaker 2: very close to Lil Durk. And so When that happened,
- 3:25Speaker 2: I said, well, let me go down and start covering that.
- 3:27Speaker 2: So I went to some of the pre-trial hearings, not
- 3:29Speaker 2: all of them, because I wasn't in LA the whole
- 3:31Speaker 2: time for the pre-trial. But I went to one of
- 3:34Speaker 2: the early pre-trial hearings about a month before the actual
- 3:36Speaker 2: trial started. And I was surprised there weren't that many
- 3:39Speaker 2: people there. A couple medias, like a woman from Rolling Stone.
- 3:43Speaker 2: There was like a, I think she was like a
- 3:45Speaker 2: law student that was there. You know, a couple other
- 3:47Speaker 2: different people covering the case. And tons of space. You
- 3:51Speaker 2: could just walk straight in. I mean, the federal building
- 3:54Speaker 2: has a lot of security. But I was surprised. I'm thinking, Dirk,
- 3:58Speaker 2: a superstar. Why are there not more people for this hearing?
- 4:01Speaker 2: And it was funny because I was at the David
- 4:03Speaker 2: preliminary hearings. And I said to a few people there
- 4:04Speaker 2: that were more like veteran journalists and media. And I
- 4:08Speaker 2: was like, oh, you guys are going to be covering
- 4:09Speaker 2: the Dirk trial. And some of them said, who's Dirk?
- 4:11Speaker 2: Some of the mainstream media and other companies, they didn't
- 4:13Speaker 2: know anything about Lil Dirk. So I was thinking like, oh, man.
- 4:16Speaker 2: I don't know the half of what's about to transpire
- 4:18Speaker 2: in this Dirk trial. This is going to be huge
- 4:20Speaker 2: because anybody that listens to rap and drill knows Dirk
- 4:23Speaker 2: is a big deal. These charges were a big deal
- 4:25Speaker 2: when he first got arrested. It was enormous news back in,
- 4:28Speaker 2: I think it was October 24th, 2024 that he got arrested.
- 4:32Speaker 2: But obviously the, you know, the alleged murder happened two
- 4:35Speaker 2: years before that. And there was a lot of things
- 4:37Speaker 2: leading up to it. So I was thinking when this
- 4:38Speaker 2: trial happens, it's going to be the, it's going to
- 4:40Speaker 2: be the biggest thing in rap for years. I mean,
- 4:42Speaker 2: it's maybe the biggest rap hip hop, trial ever right
- 4:46Speaker 2: bigger than the young thug trial not that it's a
- 4:48Speaker 2: competition but just i just felt like this is a
- 4:50Speaker 2: really big big deal and i couldn't believe some people
- 4:53Speaker 2: didn't know but as the days went on as we
- 4:55Speaker 2: got closer to.
- 4:55Speaker 3: The real trial day one because how many days was it.
- 4:58Speaker 2: Uh man there's been debate because there was two days
- 5:01Speaker 2: of jury selection and so some people count those i
- 5:04Speaker 2: was counting those as days of the trial some people
- 5:06Speaker 2: weren't but you know dirk's in court for all of
- 5:08Speaker 2: those days we came we observed jury selection they went
- 5:10Speaker 2: from 80 to well 16, 12 jurors and then four alternates.
- 5:17Speaker 2: So I counted those two days and then it was
- 5:19Speaker 2: basically like, I think it was two straight weeks of testimony.
- 5:25Speaker 2: So loads of witnesses, witness testimony, FBI agents. Dirk then
- 5:30Speaker 2: had all of his people and it was a day,
- 5:33Speaker 2: half a day even. It was from lunchtime to 4.30 p.m.
- 5:36Speaker 2: All of Dirk's witnesses were done and it was very controversial,
- 5:39Speaker 2: but I felt like Dirk's witnesses weren't the best.
- 5:43Speaker 1: You know, they....
- 5:45Speaker 2: Some of them, it didn't maybe go the way that
- 5:47Speaker 2: they were thinking, but at the end of the day,
- 5:48Speaker 2: it didn't make a difference. But then I believe it
- 5:50Speaker 2: was one day for the closing arguments. And then I
- 5:54Speaker 2: think there was, it was Labor Day. So it was
- 5:57Speaker 2: four days of, three days of deliberation. So I would say,
- 6:01Speaker 2: what's that? Four, 14, 14 to 16 days, depending off
- 6:04Speaker 2: your count in the jury selection days. And obviously Labor
- 6:07Speaker 2: Day was a day off in there. So yeah, about
- 6:10Speaker 2: 16 days total that I was on the full-blown trial.
- 6:13Speaker 2: And yeah, Every day it got bigger. The first couple
- 6:18Speaker 2: of days I was just going normally with no security
- 6:19Speaker 2: and then things start happening. Then I had one security
- 6:23Speaker 2: and then things got crazy. I had two security and
- 6:25Speaker 2: then on the last day I had three. And if
- 6:28Speaker 2: you saw that picture of me on the final day
- 6:29Speaker 2: getting out of there, it.
- 6:30Speaker 3: Was like a whole mob. I was glad I had three.
- 6:32Speaker 3: Rob Markman What's the thought process?
- 6:34Speaker 4: Because I remember one day you were shooting and some
- 6:37Speaker 4: weird guy came in your shot and was behind you.
- 6:39Speaker 3: It was just like a real weird character.
- 6:42Speaker 2: I found some more info about that guy, man. I've
- 6:44Speaker 2: not even spoken about this publicly yet, but I'm not
- 6:46Speaker 2: going to, I think that guy was paid and sent
- 6:48Speaker 2: to come and mess with me, to be honest with you.
- 6:50Speaker 2: I found that guy on a casting website like a
- 6:51Speaker 2: few weeks later and I was thinking, I feel like
- 6:54Speaker 2: that guy was like paid to come mess with.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Me, like crazy stuff.
- 6:57Speaker 2: Yeah, like a paid actor.
- 7:00Speaker 3: It was weird, man.
- 7:01Speaker 2: I'm going to break that down some more, but yeah,
- 7:05Speaker 2: bear in mind, right? That first, I went to the
- 7:07Speaker 2: whole David hearings. David was five or six days, five days,
- 7:09Speaker 2: I think, of just straight, It was a preliminary hearings.
- 7:12Speaker 2: So we went over quite a lot of the David
- 7:15Speaker 2: evidence and they basically made the case if there was
- 7:17Speaker 2: probable cause to charge him and put him to trial,
- 7:19Speaker 2: which obviously there was. I mean, the David case was just,
- 7:21Speaker 2: the evidence was horrific.
- 7:22Speaker 1: That was bad.
- 7:23Speaker 2: Awful, awful stuff. But so I didn't need security for that.
- 7:27Speaker 2: There was no issues with that. Nothing happened. But when
- 7:30Speaker 2: I went to the Dirk trial, it was kind of
- 7:32Speaker 2: like first couple of days, the pre-trial, it was like, well,
- 7:36Speaker 2: nothing's going on. I didn't really think nothing of it.
- 7:39Speaker 1: It's a federal building.
- 7:40Speaker 2: And then it's like, Jury selection wasn't so bad, but
- 7:43Speaker 2: it was getting a little bit, I don't know, more
- 7:46Speaker 2: people wanting to talk to me. You know, I'm grateful
- 7:48Speaker 2: that I've got fans and people that know me that
- 7:51Speaker 2: want to come talk to me. But yeah, it was
- 7:53Speaker 2: like that first second day of the week after the
- 7:55Speaker 2: jury selection when the trial was still first going on. And,
- 7:58Speaker 2: you know, there was talk of informants and jam hitting
- 8:01Speaker 2: the stand. That's when people started messing with me outside.
- 8:03Speaker 2: The first guy, I think, popped out with like the
- 8:06Speaker 2: meta glasses on and was trying to press me. And
- 8:10Speaker 2: then it just devolved from there, man. There was just
- 8:12Speaker 2: a bunch of stuff that just, it just escalated, you know?
- 8:16Speaker 4: So what's your thought process to even do that? Because
- 8:18Speaker 4: after that, I seen Shout to Setty Nash. I watched
- 8:21Speaker 4: his show too. He was at the trial after. It's like,
- 8:24Speaker 4: what makes you think out of the box to do
- 8:26Speaker 4: things first? Like, yo, I'm going to go to third trial.
- 8:29Speaker 4: I'm going to cover that now. Instead of, you know,
- 8:31Speaker 4: being in your studio relaxing and shooting because you make
- 8:34Speaker 4: money regardless to what.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's funny because I was saying, we
- 8:38Speaker 2: mentioned 1090 Jake earlier, and he basically was just at
- 8:41Speaker 2: home reacting to the trial, doing like half a million
- 8:43Speaker 2: views every year. Jake probably doing.
- 8:45Speaker 3: Bigger numbers than me, but.
- 8:47Speaker 2: People appreciate his perspective because he'd been through the streets
- 8:49Speaker 2: and he'd been through the system. I completely understand why
- 8:51Speaker 2: he does crazy views, so I respect him massively. But
- 8:54Speaker 2: for me, I really felt a personal connection to this
- 8:57Speaker 2: particular case. I've been covering Dirk for years.
- 9:00Speaker 3: Football is back, folks.
- 9:01Speaker 4: And you need to change the way you invest in
- 9:03Speaker 4: the NFL this season. It's finally time to ditch your
- 9:07Speaker 4: old sportsbook apps because Polymarket is here. Polymarket is a
- 9:11Speaker 4: legal prediction market now available in all 50 states. And
- 9:15Speaker 4: all them old sportsbooks, they're a relic of the past.

- 9:22Speaker 4: the Sunday slate to who wins rookie of the year
- 9:25Speaker 4: to who performs on a halftime show. We hear from
- 9:28Speaker 4: listeners all the time about sportsbooks driving them crazy. Trying
- 9:32Speaker 4: to cash out live? They can block you as often
- 9:35Speaker 4: as they want, holding your money hostage.

- 10:16Speaker 3: Let's go!
- 10:17Speaker 1: Whoa!
- 10:18Speaker 2: I mean, bear in mind, I was covering King Von
- 10:20Speaker 2: when he was alive.
- 10:21Speaker 3: There's a tweet- Oh, you know I know that. I
- 10:23Speaker 3: know about that, right? Come on, it's been years. You've
- 10:24Speaker 3: been in the game, bro.
- 10:26Speaker 2: The serial killer documentary on King Von was a little
- 10:28Speaker 2: while after he passed away. But when Von was alive
- 10:31Speaker 2: in 2020 before he passed away, I did a whole
- 10:33Speaker 2: piece about the KI murder. Von was pissed off and
- 10:37Speaker 2: his team was trying to take my YouTube channel down.
- 10:39Speaker 2: They nearly took my channel down. They pressed me and
- 10:41Speaker 2: I had to edit some.
- 10:42Speaker 1: Stuff to keep my channel- Do you understand why they
- 10:43Speaker 1: wanted you to take that down?
- 10:45Speaker 2: Yeah, of course I can understand why, yeah. But it's like,
- 10:48Speaker 2: I can understand why, but then it's also, I can't
- 10:49Speaker 2: understand why you would want to rap about that stuff
- 10:52Speaker 2: and put it out there, but then get mad when
- 10:54Speaker 2: people are talking about it. But I felt like there
- 10:57Speaker 2: was a big.
- 10:58Speaker 1: You enjoy the music?
- 10:59Speaker 2: I love the music.
- 11:00Speaker 1: So then you can't, so you see how it's like
- 11:03Speaker 1: a double side. You're like, yo, I like the music.
- 11:06Speaker 1: I love it. But then I want to highlight things
- 11:09Speaker 1: about the music that could potentially get these guys in trouble.
- 11:12Speaker 2: The thing is, I totally understand what you're saying, but
- 11:15Speaker 2: I don't see it as me getting the guys in trouble.
- 11:17Speaker 2: I see it as me just pointing out something that
- 11:20Speaker 2: is just in front of my face. Like King Von,
- 11:23Speaker 2: for example, he had a lot of songs where he
- 11:25Speaker 2: was talking about murders that he had done. I don't
- 11:28Speaker 2: want to say the word, but he, you know, allegedly
- 11:30Speaker 2: he killed a female who liked other females and he
- 11:33Speaker 2: got a song talking about we shooting everybody, even the
- 11:35Speaker 2: D words in here. And it's like, He was putting
- 11:38Speaker 2: that out there, letting people know there really was like
- 11:40Speaker 2: a female that had been killed. And, you know, that
- 11:42Speaker 2: case was out there and he's got lyrics about it.
- 11:44Speaker 2: There's IG lives where they're talking about they smoking on KI.
- 11:47Speaker 2: So it's like, I understand why. It's like he mad
- 11:51Speaker 2: that I'm bringing attention to it, but he bringing attention
- 11:53Speaker 2: to it on songs. Bear in mind, I would say
- 11:55Speaker 2: the one thing I always want to point out is
- 11:56Speaker 2: it's like Dirk, for example, right? You know, my coverage
- 11:58Speaker 2: of Dirk, it's got millions of views, but Dirk has
- 12:01Speaker 2: billions of streams talking about the stuff that was going
- 12:03Speaker 2: on in the trial. That stuff is out there publicly.
- 12:05Speaker 2: It's been publicized by Dirk. Like Vaughn was, Vaughn, I
- 12:08Speaker 2: don't think anybody wanted to know Vaughn had seven bodies
- 12:10Speaker 2: more than Vaughn. Like Vaughn on IG Live talking about, hey,
- 12:14Speaker 2: how many you think I got, gang? Like on, oh,
- 12:16Speaker 2: it's more than five. On, oh, it's more than five.
- 12:18Speaker 2: Like merch net on his hood that he's got more
- 12:20Speaker 2: than five.
- 12:21Speaker 1: Those be allegedly, and this be for entertainment purposes. Sometimes
- 12:24Speaker 1: people trying to build reputations, entertainment, you know?
- 12:27Speaker 2: That, I think that's the thing with King Vaughn. It
- 12:29Speaker 2: was definitely for entertainment purposes, but then it's like, you know,
- 12:33Speaker 2: when you looked into it, those things were true. He
- 12:35Speaker 2: was using it as entertainment, but those were people that
- 12:37Speaker 2: he allegedly took their lives. And it's kind of like,
- 12:41Speaker 2: I'm not the one responsible for that. I'm just pointing
- 12:44Speaker 2: out what's going on in society. And I think that
- 12:46Speaker 2: it's like, you know, there's like a duality of man.
- 12:51Speaker 2: I think King Von is a man that had, he
- 12:53Speaker 2: was very complicated. He had different sides. He was very
- 12:55Speaker 2: talented at music. He was allegedly very talented at the
- 12:58Speaker 2: stuff he had going on in the streets. And he
- 13:00Speaker 2: was very smart about the way that he operated. But
- 13:02Speaker 2: then he also tweeted about everything that he did. And,
- 13:04Speaker 2: you know, there's hits and then there's tweets right after
- 13:07Speaker 2: where he's talking about, like, you wouldn't believe the stuff
- 13:08Speaker 2: I'd done. He got one famous tweet where he's like,
- 13:12Speaker 2: he's like, I really didn't can name, was it? He
- 13:15Speaker 2: can name 10 GDs I've shot and five I've killed
- 13:17Speaker 2: and 10 I've shot and all stuff like that. And
- 13:19Speaker 2: so it's kind of like he making a spectacle of
- 13:21Speaker 2: all this going on.
- 13:22Speaker 1: He can say that, but it don't mean it's true.
- 13:24Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? Hold on, let me talk.
- 13:28Speaker 1: He could say that, right? But it don't mean it's true.
- 13:31Speaker 2: But in his case, it seemingly was true.
- 13:33Speaker 1: You could say seemingly, but it don't mean it's actually true, Ross.
- 13:36Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? It don't mean it's true.
- 13:38Speaker 1: He could say these things because rappers do it all day.
- 13:41Speaker 1: You might talk about certain things from your neighborhood or
- 13:43Speaker 1: the neighborhood, but it don't mean it's true or you
- 13:46Speaker 1: was the one responsible for doing these things.
- 13:48Speaker 2: So when you was saying you got shot in the head, right?
- 13:53Speaker 1: And then it kind of- You talking about me, right? Yeah. Yeah, see,
- 13:55Speaker 1: I lied about that. Yeah, yeah. I lied about getting
- 13:56Speaker 1: shot in the head.
- 13:57Speaker 2: And so it came out later that it was embellished,
- 13:59Speaker 2: that it was glass that hit you, right?
- 14:02Speaker 3: Mm-hmm. Why did you say you got shot.
- 14:04Speaker 1: In the head? Entertainment. Right?
- 14:07Speaker 2: But for the purpose of gaining attention, gaining traction for
- 14:10Speaker 2: your music career?
- 14:11Speaker 1: Of course.
- 14:11Speaker 2: But let's say you really got shot in the head
- 14:13Speaker 2: and survived.
- 14:13Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
- 14:14Speaker 3: You would do the same thing, right?
- 14:15Speaker 1: Of course.
- 14:15Speaker 2: But would we not be saying, yo, Uncle M really
- 14:19Speaker 2: got shot in the head. This is crazy. Like, It's
- 14:21Speaker 2: really proven. We actually can prove that he got a
- 14:24Speaker 2: shot in the head. Do you not think that like
- 14:25Speaker 2: the fact that you put that out there because you
- 14:27Speaker 2: knew it would be something people would talk about. I
- 14:30Speaker 2: think it's like the fact is with King Von, it's
- 14:31Speaker 2: like he was doing the same thing. But then upon
- 14:33Speaker 2: closer inspection, them seven people really not here anymore. And
- 14:37Speaker 2: he really tweeted after every single murder. And there ain't
- 14:40Speaker 2: really no alternative theory or there ain't no like. it
- 14:43Speaker 2: turns out Vaughn was really capping. He's seemingly, I mean,
- 14:46Speaker 2: he's not alive anymore, so I can't defame him, but
- 14:47Speaker 2: it seems like he killed- But they didn't prove.
- 14:49Speaker 1: They didn't say he did it. He never was charged
- 14:51Speaker 1: for these things.
- 14:52Speaker 2: Well, he was charged with one that he beat, and
- 14:54Speaker 2: then they exceptionally cleared the KI murder and said that
- 14:57Speaker 2: he was the one that did it a couple years
- 14:59Speaker 2: after he passed away.
- 14:59Speaker 1: I feel like after he passed away, they was just
- 15:02Speaker 1: trying to say anything at that point, trying to maybe
- 15:04Speaker 1: put certain things on the dude after that.
- 15:06Speaker 3: You know what it was, Murda?
- 15:08Speaker 4: Me watching serial killer King Vaughn with Trap Lil Ross.
- 15:12Speaker 4: Vaughn will tweet and say, death is in the air.
- 15:16Speaker 4: And it's at like 5.05 o'clock, right? It's like 5.05.
- 15:20Speaker 4: By 5.15, the nigga's dead. So that was the thing
- 15:25Speaker 4: about Serial Killer. His point was, he was tweeting and
- 15:30Speaker 4: shit was really happening like 10 minutes later. Like, yo,
- 15:35Speaker 4: I feel like eating cereal today. It was just a
- 15:39Speaker 4: lot of shit with Vaughn because that's what the kids
- 15:42Speaker 4: was buying into. Just like with G-Unit back in the
- 15:45Speaker 4: days when the Suburbian kids, and he was buying into
- 15:47Speaker 4: the 50 Cent story. He got shot the fuck up,
- 15:50Speaker 4: street dude. They buying into that, but now it's on
- 15:54Speaker 4: a whole nother level because it's social media and we
- 15:56Speaker 4: know Chirac is like a never ending circle of violence.
- 16:02Speaker 4: That's all you hear every day. I've been watching this
- 16:05Speaker 4: Q50 story. got killed, and it was like motherfuckers getting
- 16:10Speaker 4: killed like every other day after that.
- 16:12Speaker 3: Go into that, because he'll tell you about that.
- 16:14Speaker 4: A motherfucker went up there and was like playing around,
- 16:16Speaker 4: doing a meme, and he got killed.
- 16:19Speaker 1: Yeah, I seen that a couple days ago. Yeah, I
- 16:21Speaker 1: seen that.
- 16:22Speaker 2: But I I understand what you're saying, though, and I
- 16:25Speaker 2: do respect your opinion, what you're saying with Vaughn. I
- 16:27Speaker 2: think it's a case of, though, like the reason I
- 16:29Speaker 2: use that example is just a case of like, you know,
- 16:31Speaker 2: you knew as a rapper and you've marketed yourself amazingly,
- 16:34Speaker 2: you know, and I grew up listening to both of
- 16:36Speaker 2: you guys and, you know, understanding the stories.
- 16:38Speaker 3: And like, you know, I remember being younger.
- 16:40Speaker 2: Obviously, we were talking outside, you know, 50 getting shot
- 16:42Speaker 2: nine times was always this crazy thing to me. I
- 16:44Speaker 2: had a poster of him on my wall. And I
- 16:45Speaker 2: just thought, how can you survive that and still be
- 16:47Speaker 2: out here going diamond, being successful? I remember hearing the
- 16:50Speaker 2: story about you getting shot and just thinking like, it
- 16:53Speaker 2: was like some shit to me. It was just like, how, like,
- 16:55Speaker 2: like you were super, like, how is that even possible?
- 16:58Speaker 2: So I think it's almost in a kind of inverse
- 17:01Speaker 2: in a dark way that people are so obsessed with
- 17:03Speaker 2: King Von, because bear in mind, I didn't make up
- 17:05Speaker 2: that he's got seven murders and put it on him
- 17:08Speaker 2: to trash his reputation. He left the breadcrumbs of that.
- 17:12Speaker 2: as marketing for his career in a similar way that
- 17:14Speaker 2: you would have done in your career that worked. And,
- 17:16Speaker 2: you know, that's part of why, part of why Von
- 17:17Speaker 2: was so successful was because the whispers amongst people listening
- 17:20Speaker 2: to him was like, yo, he's a realist. Like, yo,
- 17:22Speaker 2: he really did that shit. Like he really lived that.
- 17:24Speaker 2: So it, to me, it wasn't, it was never that
- 17:27Speaker 2: I'm trying to disrespect him or put him down. But
- 17:29Speaker 2: I think with Von, I feel like one thing that
- 17:32Speaker 2: I find difficult is people kind of come at me like,
- 17:34Speaker 2: I've said.
- 17:35Speaker 1: This before, right?
- 17:36Speaker 2: It's like, People are like, oh, you didn't know that
- 17:38Speaker 2: he really did that. Why are you putting that on Vaughn?
- 17:39Speaker 2: It's like, if Vaughn was alive in this room and
- 17:41Speaker 2: you said, hey, you got no bodies, you didn't do shit,
- 17:42Speaker 2: Vaughn would slap you across the face. Like, Vaughn was
- 17:45Speaker 2: really serious. Like, Vaughn wasn't out here trying to tell people,
- 17:48Speaker 2: I didn't do nothing, bro. I ain't got no bodies. Like,
- 17:50Speaker 2: that ain't happening. Vaughn was out here on some little, like, hey,
- 17:52Speaker 2: you know what's going on with Vaughn. You know, Vaughn
- 17:54Speaker 2: big GDK and he, you know what I'm saying? He really, like,
- 17:58Speaker 2: posting Instagram stories of, like, seven skulls. Like, yeah, now
- 18:01Speaker 2: you know, like, type stuff. So he wanted... He wanted
- 18:05Speaker 2: someone like me to pick up on those breadcrumbs, but
- 18:07Speaker 2: I think it.
- 18:07Speaker 1: Is- He didn't want you saying something. You see, his
- 18:09Speaker 1: team said, take that shit down, Trapp. He didn't want
- 18:12Speaker 1: you putting that shit up there. He didn't want you
- 18:14Speaker 1: highlighting it. You know what it is? He didn't want
- 18:16Speaker 1: you playing internet detective.
- 18:19Speaker 3: Here's what I think.
- 18:20Speaker 1: They call you internet detective.
- 18:21Speaker 2: No, they do.
- 18:21Speaker 1: I'll take that. Yes, all right, cool. So he didn't
- 18:23Speaker 1: want you playing internet detective.
- 18:25Speaker 2: I think he wasn't expecting someone to be as good
- 18:27Speaker 2: as being an internet detective as I was, and then
- 18:29Speaker 2: he was like, oh shit, I might have put a
- 18:31Speaker 2: little too much about this. Bear in mind- The KI story,
- 18:36Speaker 2: it was kind of out of his hands because one
- 18:38Speaker 2: of the things that surfaced, I didn't do this. I'm
- 18:40Speaker 2: not a hacker. I didn't get this information. But like
- 18:42Speaker 2: one of the things that was circulating, and I didn't
- 18:44Speaker 2: put this out there, but like KI was killed in 2014.
- 18:49Speaker 2: King Von, look, King Von was active. When King Von
- 18:53Speaker 2: was on the streets, people was dying back to back
- 18:55Speaker 2: to back to back. And then when he was locked up.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Slow down a little bit.
- 18:58Speaker 1: When you was on the streets, people was dying.
- 18:59Speaker 3: Trap?
- 18:59Speaker 2: No, no, but let me get, let me get, let
- 19:01Speaker 2: me land on this.
- 19:02Speaker 1: People die when you're on the streets. I know what
- 19:04Speaker 1: you're saying. You can't be putting it on like that,
- 19:07Speaker 1: but go ahead. I know what you're saying.
- 19:08Speaker 2: But he got picked up for another murder, say like
- 19:11Speaker 2: two months after the KI murder, right? He ends up
- 19:13Speaker 2: beating that murder. I don't know if you know the
- 19:15Speaker 2: story about Big Mike, but basically Von's homie gets picked
- 19:19Speaker 2: up by the police. He does some dumb stuff. He
- 19:21Speaker 2: basically says, I bust off shots, but I didn't kill
- 19:23Speaker 2: the guy. Von says nothing. So the guy, they're thinking
- 19:26Speaker 2: the guy's going to snitch. Really, he's just accidentally implicated himself,
- 19:30Speaker 2: Big Mike. Big Mike ends up going down for it.
- 19:33Speaker 2: Jury decides there's not enough evidence on Von. Von never
- 19:35Speaker 2: says anything to anyone, sits down for like, I think
- 19:37Speaker 2: it was about three years or so, and then gets out.
- 19:40Speaker 2: But when he gets out, bear in mind, KI's been
- 19:42Speaker 2: dead for like three years. No one's really done anything
- 19:44Speaker 2: about it. They can't get to the bottom of it.
- 19:47Speaker 2: You know, years later, people that are with her are
- 19:48Speaker 2: doing interviews saying, yeah, I was there.
- 19:50Speaker 1: It was Vaughn.
- 19:51Speaker 2: But somebody hacked into K.I. 's Twitter account, you know,
- 19:55Speaker 2: years after she was dead when Vaughn's a rapper. We're
- 19:57Speaker 2: talking like 2019, I think. And so like somebody on
- 20:00Speaker 2: 4chan that's followed this Chicago scene really closely hacks into K.I.
- 20:03Speaker 2: 's Twitter and then leaks all of these DMs between
- 20:06Speaker 2: Vaughn and K.I., that have never been seen before. And
- 20:08Speaker 2: it's like, Von's trying to meet up with her, trying
- 20:10Speaker 2: to get her location. They going back and forth and
- 20:12Speaker 2: nobody's seen this, but that was already put out there.
- 20:15Speaker 2: Everyone was talking about it. There's all different kinds of
- 20:16Speaker 2: threads about these DMs with Von and KI. And you know,
- 20:19Speaker 2: the coldest thing, you would have seen this in the documentary,
- 20:21Speaker 2: but like, I think it was, I can't remember what
- 20:25Speaker 2: channel it was. I want to say, is it, forget
- 20:29Speaker 2: the actual, the channel, but there was like a TV
- 20:32Speaker 2: documentary about KI, Jakira, the gang girl. And they interviewed
- 20:37Speaker 2: Von in that documentary. And he's in that interview, like
- 20:40Speaker 2: smoking a blunt, being like, I miss her, man.
- 20:42Speaker 3: That was my bitch.
- 20:43Speaker 2: We was together every day. Come to find out he
- 20:45Speaker 2: actually allegedly was the one that killed her. But when
- 20:48Speaker 2: you watch that clip back, he trolled, he in the
- 20:50Speaker 2: documentary about.
- 20:51Speaker 3: Her life trolling.
- 20:52Speaker 2: And then like the foot, the messages between them circulating
- 20:56Speaker 2: on 4chan, people have hacked the messages.
- 20:57Speaker 1: So it's like alleged messages. Cause we don't even know
- 21:00Speaker 1: if those is real trap nowadays. People so good. with
- 21:03Speaker 1: the way they be putting shit together, we don't even
- 21:05Speaker 1: know if those messages was really real.
- 21:07Speaker 2: True, but this was before the.
- 21:08Speaker 1: AI- Even before AI, people had fake messages. It was
- 21:12Speaker 1: a way to push it together. So we don't even
- 21:14Speaker 1: know if those messages was actually true.
- 21:17Speaker 2: Here's the thing.
- 21:18Speaker 1: See, that's the shit you be doing sometimes.
- 21:19Speaker 2: No, I agree though.
- 21:21Speaker 1: Like, we gotta make sure.
- 21:22Speaker 2: But what I do, I think what I do is like,
- 21:24Speaker 2: I bring together all the information about a topic together.
- 21:26Speaker 2: I agree, if the only thing that connected King Von
- 21:29Speaker 2: to the murder of KI was just this set of messages,
- 21:34Speaker 2: I wouldn't really feel like that's enough. I wouldn't be
- 21:36Speaker 2: convinced by that.
- 21:36Speaker 1: Exactly. That's not enough to go, yes, he did this. No.
- 21:39Speaker 2: But then he's got his own lyrics talking about it.
- 21:41Speaker 2: We've then got testimony from other people saying, yeah, he
- 21:44Speaker 2: did it. You've then got the Chicago police say that
- 21:46Speaker 2: he matched the description. He's got a bunch of lyrics
- 21:49Speaker 2: talking about it. And then he tweeting about it afterwards. Like,
- 21:53Speaker 2: it's kind of like when you put all that was
- 21:54Speaker 2: my whole thing. It's like I get everything there is.
- 21:56Speaker 2: I put it together and I say it looks looks
- 22:00Speaker 2: like that's what was going on.
- 22:01Speaker 1: About traps and I get it all together. You want
- 22:03Speaker 1: to be a cop. I don't want to be a cop.
- 22:05Speaker 2: I don't want to be a cop.
- 22:06Speaker 1: I just wanted to know. Because traps and I get
- 22:08Speaker 1: all the information together. Then I'm about to go crazy
- 22:11Speaker 1: on this shit.
- 22:12Speaker 3: You know what I explain to murder sometimes?
- 22:13Speaker 4: I tell them like, certain guys, if you kill a
- 22:17Speaker 4: favorite rapper, the detectives, they're coming for you. They're going
- 22:20Speaker 4: to be on Reddit. They're going to be in the comments.
- 22:24Speaker 4: Like somebody will get murdered, for instance. Like he'll come
- 22:26Speaker 4: with something. What I like about his style is when
- 22:28Speaker 4: he covers something, he goes in the comments. And people
- 22:31Speaker 4: is telling you, well, he'll be like, yo, after Q50
- 22:34Speaker 4: got shot.
- 22:35Speaker 1: You mean he's arguing with the people.
- 22:36Speaker 3: In the comments? No, he's not arguing.
- 22:37Speaker 4: He's reading the comments. And in the comments, they'll be like, well,
- 22:42Speaker 4: Q50 got killed. This guy, three people got shot. Not
- 22:46Speaker 4: condoling violence, but hope they, you know, survive.
- 22:49Speaker 3: A lady and everything.
- 22:50Speaker 4: And people will be like, well, it's over Q50 getting killed.
- 22:54Speaker 4: And people will praise it like, oh, they turning up.
- 22:56Speaker 4: And then people in the comments would be like, it
- 22:58Speaker 4: wasn't them. It was them on the other side. People
- 23:01Speaker 4: are willingly giving you the information. Not only just the artists,
- 23:06Speaker 4: but it's not even internet detectives. If somebody don't like you,
- 23:09Speaker 4: they're like, man, fuck it. Yo, yeah, they didn't do that.
- 23:12Speaker 4: We did that. They didn't put in that work. Or
- 23:16Speaker 4: it's like social media is the new streets. So we
- 23:19Speaker 4: be mad like, We'll say it's self-snitching or whatever, but people,
- 23:23Speaker 4: everybody's showing what they got, what they doing.
- 23:26Speaker 3: So you can't really get mad at him. He's just
- 23:29Speaker 3: giving you- No, I'm not mad at that.
- 23:31Speaker 1: Not you. I'm not mad at that trap. I'm just
- 23:33Speaker 1: kicking it with him. I want to know, understand. You
- 23:35Speaker 1: know what I'm saying? Like why certain things, why you
- 23:36Speaker 1: do this? Do you feel normally like right now, like damn,
- 23:41Speaker 1: if I do dig into some certain information, it probably
- 23:44Speaker 1: could lead to somebody actually losing their freedom.
- 23:49Speaker 2: I personally don't believe that's true. but this is a
- 23:51Speaker 2: big point of debate. I feel like we're not going
- 23:54Speaker 2: to agree on this. I think a really great example
- 23:56Speaker 2: is like this Dirk case, okay? I've been talking about
- 24:00Speaker 2: this for quite a long time before Dirk was locked up.
- 24:04Speaker 2: But if you'd been following that situation, again, I don't
- 24:06Speaker 2: know how closely, I know, I'm sure we're all fans
- 24:09Speaker 2: of Dirk's music, but I don't know how closely you followed,
- 24:11Speaker 2: you know, the beef and the drama. Obviously, like, When
- 24:13Speaker 2: King Von died and the way that he died, he
- 24:15Speaker 2: was trying to beat up Kondo Rondo.
- 24:18Speaker 3: Everybody knows.
- 24:20Speaker 1: It was all out there.
- 24:21Speaker 2: But it seemed obvious if you'd follow Dirk's music and
- 24:24Speaker 2: you'd listen to Dirk's music that there was this whole
- 24:27Speaker 2: slide for Von thing. So when you turn on the
- 24:30Speaker 2: news in August 2022 and you see Kondo's on the
- 24:33Speaker 2: street next to his dead cousin screaming no and it's
- 24:36Speaker 2: on TMZ and it's everywhere, again, I'm not wanting Dirk
- 24:40Speaker 2: to be locked up. I'm not the reason that Dirk's
- 24:42Speaker 2: locked up. But I think a lot of people saw
- 24:43Speaker 2: that and immediately saw that and was like, bro, I
- 24:45Speaker 2: know what this is about. I don't think anybody saw
- 24:47Speaker 2: Kondo screaming no on the news two years after the
- 24:49Speaker 2: King Von thing, after countless songs where they're talking about,
- 24:52Speaker 2: we're going to slide, we're going to do this and that.
- 24:53Speaker 2: He'd already been shot at once in 2021. I don't
- 24:56Speaker 2: think anybody saw that and thought like, oh, that's random.
- 24:59Speaker 2: That's just some random stuff.
- 25:00Speaker 1: Well, that's LA. It could be. Sometimes things happen in LA.
- 25:04Speaker 1: You told my rappers, with jewelry, people out there, could
- 25:06Speaker 1: have been a robbery.
- 25:08Speaker 3: Things happen.
- 25:08Speaker 1: It's LA. It is dangerous in LA. It could have been, right?
- 25:12Speaker 2: But then as time went on, it unraveled and it
- 25:15Speaker 2: became that there was evidence, right? There was evidence that
- 25:18Speaker 2: the cops were... And what was interesting is, I think
- 25:19Speaker 2: I made a video about that probably, I can't remember
- 25:22Speaker 2: the exact date, but probably like six months after it happened.
- 25:24Speaker 2: And by that point, People have gone on podcasts talking
- 25:26Speaker 2: about it, talking about there's no more Slide4Von. I think
- 25:29Speaker 2: it was just under a year that Dirk went on Academics,
- 25:32Speaker 2: his own podcast. Bear in mind, before Dirk's locked up
- 25:34Speaker 2: for this, he's gone on Academics, his podcast. And this
- 25:37Speaker 2: was a big part of the case, and no disrespect
- 25:38Speaker 2: to Academics, because Dirk chose to go on that podcast
- 25:41Speaker 2: and make those comments. He went on there and he
- 25:43Speaker 2: made those comments and he said, they don't say Slide4Von
- 25:46Speaker 2: no more. They say, for some odd reason, I don't
- 25:48Speaker 2: know why, we're different in the rec. It must be
- 25:50Speaker 2: something in the water, but it's like, Look, we love
- 25:53Speaker 2: Dirk's music. Dirk's a cool guy, but that was like,
- 25:55Speaker 2: he's some real Don Corleone. People knew what he was
- 25:59Speaker 2: talking about with that, right? Now, it wasn't enough to
- 26:00Speaker 2: convict him. I agree with that. He got found not
- 26:02Speaker 2: guilty on all those murder for hire charges. But as
- 26:04Speaker 2: far as actually the case that was being built against him,
- 26:09Speaker 2: he himself left a lot of breadcrumbs for the cops
- 26:11Speaker 2: to at least build the case. Now, fortunately for him,
- 26:13Speaker 2: he's been found not guilty on five of seven charges.
- 26:16Speaker 2: As it currently stands, there's still two.
- 26:17Speaker 1: Free Dirk, he's not guilty, Trapp.
- 26:22Speaker 2: He's not guilty of murder for hire and stalking.
- 26:23Speaker 1: Yes, he's not guilty.
- 26:25Speaker 2: He's not guilty of murder for hire and stalking. Right now,
- 26:26Speaker 2: he's still got two outstanding charges and we're going to
- 26:29Speaker 2: find out. People are saying that they're going to drop
- 26:30Speaker 2: those charges. They might still happen. But what I'm trying
- 26:33Speaker 2: to say, so I'm saying it a roundabout way, but
- 26:35Speaker 2: I feel like what happened with Dirk is a similar
- 26:37Speaker 2: thing that happened with Vaughn is that like there was,
- 26:39Speaker 2: what would it have been like two years and four
- 26:42Speaker 2: months or so where Dirk was out here doing exactly
- 26:45Speaker 2: what Von did. He was dropping hints and hints and
- 26:48Speaker 2: hints that he was responsible. He got multiple songs where
- 26:50Speaker 2: he make in front of Quando Rondo talking about, no,
- 26:52Speaker 2: that's what he said.
- 26:54Speaker 1: No, he's just making music.
- 26:55Speaker 3: But the feds are going to use it. No, no, no.
- 26:59Speaker 3: They're going to use it. That's all I'm saying is
- 27:01Speaker 3: the feds are going to use that. We know that,
- 27:04Speaker 3: which is not right. They shouldn't be able to use
- 27:06Speaker 3: music in no case, which is not right. We should
- 27:08Speaker 3: do it if the feds.
- 27:09Speaker 1: Are going to use it. You think they should?
- 27:11Speaker 2: I feel like in that case, it He was on
- 27:14Speaker 2: the song screaming, no.
- 27:15Speaker 1: No, Trapp, see, this is where we got to get you.
- 27:17Speaker 1: This is where we got to change your mind, Trapp, no.
- 27:21Speaker 3: You can't be a fan of him.
- 27:22Speaker 1: You can't be a fan of this man and saying, no,
- 27:24Speaker 1: they should be able to use his music to send
- 27:26Speaker 1: him to jail for the rest of his life.
- 27:28Speaker 3: No, Trapp. No, I don't agree with that. But that's
- 27:30Speaker 3: not what I'm saying.
- 27:31Speaker 1: No, Trapp. We got to get you to the prison.
- 27:33Speaker 3: But we know the feds. Because I want you to
- 27:35Speaker 3: get accepted more by the hood.
- 27:37Speaker 1: Because you seem like a good guy, cool guy.
- 27:38Speaker 4: But Trapp, we know the feds are going to use
- 27:40Speaker 4: that anyway. They're using music, lyrics, pictures.
- 27:43Speaker 1: But what I'm trying to get Trapp to understand is
- 27:45Speaker 1: that he shouldn't want them because he's saying they should
- 27:47Speaker 1: be able to use the music. to put us in jail.
- 27:50Speaker 3: No trap.
- 27:51Speaker 1: That's not right.
- 27:52Speaker 2: That's not what I'm saying. I'm not saying they should
- 27:53Speaker 2: just be able to use music to put you in jail.
- 27:55Speaker 2: What I'm saying is that like, if you've snitched on
- 27:57Speaker 2: yourself in a song and then that's combined with other
- 28:00Speaker 2: evidence that builds up a picture that you did this,
- 28:02Speaker 2: I don't see why that shouldn't be used.
- 28:03Speaker 1: No, because they can't prove what you're saying in your
- 28:05Speaker 1: music is true. You're just making music for entertainment's and purpose.
- 28:08Speaker 2: But that's why the music is combined with other evidence.
- 28:10Speaker 1: This is why, don't get me wrong.
- 28:11Speaker 2: I'm not saying I want to criminalize rap music by
- 28:13Speaker 2: any means. Would you not, if you were in the studio-
- 28:15Speaker 2: But you know it sounds like that. It could sound
- 28:16Speaker 2: like that when you say, why not? Why shouldn't they
- 28:18Speaker 2: be able to use the music? But shouldn't the message
- 28:22Speaker 2: really just be like, don't tell on yourself and your music?
- 28:24Speaker 2: Like if you were in the studio with Dirk and
- 28:25Speaker 2: he's in there rapping, they said, no, I said, let's
- 28:28Speaker 2: go to war about it.
- 28:29Speaker 3: Where he go?
- 28:30Speaker 2: I said, this.
- 28:32Speaker 1: Would have more got him. You can't say, oh, he's
- 28:35Speaker 1: talking about this and feel like he's, no, you can't.
- 28:38Speaker 2: They tried to.
- 28:38Speaker 1: They tried to. It didn't work. That's what I'm saying.
- 28:40Speaker 1: It didn't work. And it shouldn't be able to work.
- 28:45Speaker 2: I just think if you get on the song and
- 28:47Speaker 2: you tell on yourself, if that matches up with other evidence,
- 28:49Speaker 2: I just don't see the problem. I'm not saying rap
- 28:51Speaker 2: should be criminalized. I would have told Dirk. If I
- 28:53Speaker 2: was in the studio with Dirk, I would have said, bro,
- 28:54Speaker 2: are you sure you want to do all that?
- 28:56Speaker 1: Really?
- 28:57Speaker 2: He got multiple songs doing the no. He got multiple songs.
- 29:00Speaker 2: What's the lyric where he says, they're saying slide for Vaughn.
- 29:04Speaker 2: I know they're trolling me. And he's got the one
- 29:06Speaker 2: where he says, they said, get it back in blood.
- 29:10Speaker 2: We've been sliding. They just don't know we have. and
- 29:12Speaker 2: shit like that. And it's just like, when they played
- 29:14Speaker 2: that in court.
- 29:14Speaker 1: You looking too deep into it, Trapp. It's just music.
- 29:16Speaker 3: What else is there?
- 29:17Speaker 1: It's sound good. It's music. He's just making music. It
- 29:20Speaker 1: sound good. You saying that like, he's saying that we've
- 29:23Speaker 1: been sliding the music, so it gotta be true. They
- 29:26Speaker 1: had to go commit those crimes.
- 29:28Speaker 3: Allegedly, they had been sliding.
- 29:29Speaker 1: Dirk has been cleared of all crimes. He hasn't been
- 29:32Speaker 1: doing that. He's facing two more. Let's hope he get
- 29:35Speaker 1: through that.
- 29:36Speaker 3: Trap, murder. Let's be real.
- 29:39Speaker 4: I listen to Bloodhound Lil Jeff, rest in peace. I
- 29:42Speaker 4: listen to Q50. I listen to King Von. I listen
- 29:47Speaker 4: to Polo G. I listen to mainly artists in Chicago.
- 29:52Speaker 4: I buy into the story. We all buy into them
- 29:55Speaker 4: being real. Rest in peace, Bloodhound Lil Jeff. He say,
- 29:59Speaker 4: I got eight hats. I'm going to lids in my lyrics.
- 30:02Speaker 4: He's letting you know, I got eight. We don't know
- 30:04Speaker 4: if it's true. We don't know if it's not. You're
- 30:07Speaker 4: right about that, but that's what, are we guilty for
- 30:10Speaker 4: buying into the violent music? Because I listen to that shit.
- 30:14Speaker 4: And I follow Trap Lil Ross, and I be on YouTube,
- 30:16Speaker 4: and I be addicted to it too, as well as
- 30:19Speaker 4: a kid that's in suburbia, that's in the neighborhood.
- 30:21Speaker 3: It's entertainment.
- 30:22Speaker 4: It's like me going to watch a Scarface movie, but
- 30:24Speaker 4: it's fucking real life. So if the artist ain't real,
- 30:28Speaker 4: motherfuckers ain't going to buy into you anyway. So you
- 30:31Speaker 4: got to show niggas you gangster. So whose fault is it, really?
- 30:36Speaker 1: But you got to just understand your power. So I'm
- 30:38Speaker 1: trying to let Trap Lord Ross understand his power. When
- 30:40Speaker 1: you got these platforms in your voice. So when you
- 30:43Speaker 1: say certain things, they might take it as, oh, well,
- 30:47Speaker 1: he's right. He said it. So Dirk got to be
- 30:49Speaker 1: guilty because that's what Trap Lord Ross think. And you
- 30:53Speaker 1: might not even all the way think that. You just
- 30:55Speaker 1: feel like, well, hey, because he said it in the song,
- 30:59Speaker 1: I believe because he said it in the song. I'm
- 31:00Speaker 1: not saying it's true, but I kind of believe it
- 31:03Speaker 1: because he said it in the song. Or, nah, we
- 31:06Speaker 1: can't put.
- 31:06Speaker 4: That message out there like that. I think a lot
- 31:08Speaker 4: of fans get mad at him because he give the facts. Like,
- 31:11Speaker 4: and he might say, oh, it's not looking for dirt
- 31:14Speaker 4: good one day.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Right?
- 31:15Speaker 4: One day, you know, you'll be like, oh, shit, why
- 31:17Speaker 4: trap Lord Seda? It's not looking for dirt. But you're
- 31:20Speaker 4: going to watch it. And then the next day, he's like, oh,
- 31:22Speaker 4: now his lawyer's catching wind.
- 31:24Speaker 3: It's entertainment. It's media.
- 31:26Speaker 4: When Channel 7, 11, Fox 5, or anybody reports anything,
- 31:30Speaker 4: nobody gets mad at them. You know, I think sometimes
- 31:34Speaker 4: people think personal about things because it's a white man
- 31:37Speaker 4: saying it. And that's just being the truth. Like him
- 31:40Speaker 4: or Vlad, they'll be like, oh shit. But he takes
- 31:42Speaker 4: the time to do the homework to actually figure it out.
- 31:46Speaker 4: First example, like I'm going to ask you, he followed
- 31:48Speaker 4: every crime scene.
- 31:49Speaker 3: And I know you're going to be like, this is crazy.
- 31:51Speaker 3: He followed every- You see this?
- 31:52Speaker 1: To their trial.
- 31:55Speaker 4: He took time to go to every spot Of the
- 31:59Speaker 4: crime scene, the gas station, where they met up with this,
- 32:02Speaker 4: where they supposedly bought the ski mask, did all that.
- 32:05Speaker 1: But why so invested, Trap? Why so invested? Why be
- 32:08Speaker 1: so invested like that?
- 32:10Speaker 2: I mean, I'm a lifetime fan of hip hop. I
- 32:13Speaker 2: really just grew up listening to rap. I remember when
- 32:15Speaker 2: Chicago Drill first came out.
- 32:16Speaker 1: So stop it right there for one minute, right? Look,
- 32:18Speaker 1: you say you're a fan of hip hop, right? Then
- 32:20Speaker 1: I just asked you earlier, I said, you're a fan
- 32:22Speaker 1: of Dirk, right? You say, yes. So then why would
- 32:24Speaker 1: you want to see the lyrics make this man go
- 32:27Speaker 1: to jail? Like you guys, that's why I go trap.
- 32:30Speaker 1: That's why I go trap. We got to get your
- 32:32Speaker 1: mind to feel like it's either you a fan, you
- 32:34Speaker 1: with us, or you want to see us go down. No,
- 32:37Speaker 1: I feel like- You got to pick one a little bit.
- 32:38Speaker 2: You're making a sweeping generalization because I feel like one,
- 32:41Speaker 2: you know, gangster rap isn't rap in general. This, bear
- 32:45Speaker 2: in mind, we're talking about a small subsection of rap, okay?
- 32:47Speaker 2: And specifically when we're talking about Dirk, I don't want
- 32:50Speaker 2: Dirk to be in jail, but look, somebody shot up
- 32:53Speaker 2: a gas station in Beverly Hills with a switch and
- 32:55Speaker 2: someone who died. And the guy that got killed ain't
- 32:57Speaker 2: got nothing to do with no King Von.
- 32:58Speaker 3: It was an innocent.
- 32:59Speaker 2: Lil' Pab was an innocent man that got killed. Someone
- 33:01Speaker 2: needed to be held account. You can't just shoot off
- 33:03Speaker 2: a machine gun. You can't shoot off a switch in
- 33:04Speaker 2: Beverly Hills. I see the footage of that shooting. There's
- 33:07Speaker 2: just random people at the other gas pumps running for cover.
- 33:10Speaker 4: It's... You know you're going to go down. If you
- 33:13Speaker 4: shoot up in Times Square, you're going to go down.
- 33:16Speaker 4: If you shoot by the Beverly Center, you're going to
- 33:18Speaker 4: go down, bro. If you shoot in front of the
- 33:21Speaker 4: White House, you're going to go down. That's the way
- 33:24Speaker 4: I see it. Like, yo, you know if you're going
- 33:26Speaker 4: to do this, you're going down. Now, if you're somewhere
- 33:29Speaker 4: in the hood by a train station, you might not
- 33:32Speaker 4: go down. There might not be no cameras. You might
- 33:34Speaker 4: go down. But if you in Times Square, you do
- 33:37Speaker 4: some shit, you know you're going down.
- 33:41Speaker 2: That's it.
- 33:41Speaker 3: The crime was crazy.
- 33:42Speaker 2: Because I remember when that came out on the news.
- 33:46Speaker 2: And you've seen that footage of Quando Rondo screaming, no,
- 33:48Speaker 2: it's horrible. I've seen the uncensored footage of that and
- 33:50Speaker 2: the body cam in court. You know, we've seen Lil
- 33:53Speaker 2: Pab take his last breath.
- 33:53Speaker 1: It was horrible.
- 33:54Speaker 2: I've seen Lil Pab's mother in court breaking down at
- 33:57Speaker 2: this stuff.
- 33:57Speaker 1: Condolences to the family. Yeah.
- 34:00Speaker 3: Rest in peace.
- 34:00Speaker 2: And, you know, that was meant for Quando, allegedly. And,
- 34:04Speaker 2: you know, two people were convicted and found guilty of
- 34:07Speaker 2: the stalking that resulted in death.
- 34:08Speaker 3: Dirk beat all of his charges.
- 34:10Speaker 2: No murder for height... Dirk was clear to those five charges,
- 34:12Speaker 2: but the two guys that were found guilty of that stalking,
- 34:15Speaker 2: I think there was a small amount of justice. But
- 34:17Speaker 2: it's not a case of I'm just putting all rappers
- 34:19Speaker 2: and lyricists on trial. I'm talking about a very specific,
- 34:22Speaker 2: a very ultra-violent subset of hip-hop that I've followed since
- 34:26Speaker 2: it was first founded in 2012. I remember being young,
- 34:28Speaker 2: driving around the countryside of England, listening to Chief Keef
- 34:31Speaker 2: when he first dropped Three Hunter, thinking this is some
- 34:34Speaker 2: of the craziest music I've ever heard in my life.
- 34:36Speaker 2: And I followed Chicago drill music just through all of
- 34:38Speaker 2: these years seeing Dirk go from nothing to being one
- 34:42Speaker 2: of the biggest rap artists in the whole world. But
- 34:44Speaker 2: it always blew my mind because I remember when that happened,
- 34:46Speaker 2: it's like, bro, you really shot up Beverly Hills with
- 34:48Speaker 2: a machine gun. It was obvious what was going on
- 34:50Speaker 2: with Kondo. Look, people tried to say, oh, it was unrelated.
- 34:54Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, I felt like, yo,
- 34:57Speaker 2: Dirk been rapping about this murder for a couple of years,
- 34:59Speaker 2: really putting it in people's faces. It was a horrible crime.
- 35:02Speaker 2: They hit the wrong guy.
- 35:03Speaker 1: He's allegedly rapping about the murders. They just rapping. Allegedly.
- 35:06Speaker 1: He's allegedly rapping about the murders. But look, if you're
- 35:08Speaker 1: that much of a fan, do you understand where these
- 35:11Speaker 1: guys come from? How hard they had it growing up?
- 35:14Speaker 1: So do you be like, yo, damn, you got to
- 35:16Speaker 1: understand that as well.
- 35:18Speaker 2: I got the utmost sympathy. And again, I want people
- 35:21Speaker 2: to understand it. If you watch my long, deep dive
- 35:23Speaker 2: breakdown documentaries, I really try and give the extra context
- 35:26Speaker 2: as to why these things are happening, especially when it
- 35:28Speaker 2: comes to Chicago. There's a lot of documentaries I've done
- 35:31Speaker 2: where I try and talk about the socioeconomic reasons that
- 35:33Speaker 2: people are pushed in these situations. One of my favorite
- 35:36Speaker 2: pieces I've done, I did a video about Tay Savage,
- 35:38Speaker 2: if you know about him. Been through a lot of stuff,
- 35:42Speaker 2: been through some real situations. And in that video, I
- 35:45Speaker 2: talk about where he comes from, Welch World, his block,
- 35:47Speaker 2: and Bronzeville. And basically, I talk about how this area
- 35:51Speaker 2: was like, they call it the Black Metropolis in the
- 35:53Speaker 2: 50s and 60s. It was like a real hub of
- 35:55Speaker 2: black excellence and black businesses. And then, you know, you
- 35:58Speaker 2: had a lot of communities that had congregated in these
- 36:00Speaker 2: buildings that the government eventually knocked down and they displaced everybody.
- 36:04Speaker 2: They ruined the community. You know, they've got things like
- 36:07Speaker 2: redlining or they got rid of public housing and they
- 36:10Speaker 2: sent people that were all in their own community in
- 36:12Speaker 2: one building and just spread them all out across Chicago
- 36:15Speaker 2: amongst rivalries. And that's what caused all these different gangs. And,
- 36:17Speaker 2: you know, back in the day it was BDs and GDs,
- 36:20Speaker 2: but way back in the day, these were kind of
- 36:21Speaker 2: almost like community organizations trying to protect the community. But
- 36:24Speaker 2: it's like, when they spread everybody across all these different areas,
- 36:28Speaker 2: it led to, you know, just these neighborhood wars where
- 36:30Speaker 2: people had their area.
- 36:32Speaker 1: You're trying to survive now. Now you're trying to survive.
- 36:34Speaker 2: No, so I have sympathies for that and I'll try
- 36:36Speaker 2: and cover that and give the context to that. But
- 36:37Speaker 2: at the same time, I.
- 36:39Speaker 1: Don't feel like- Those don't do the numbers for you. No, no, no.
- 36:41Speaker 1: That did numbers.
- 36:42Speaker 3: That did numbers. Did it do numbers? Yeah, that did numbers.
- 36:44Speaker 1: See, but I feel like you got to highlight that
- 36:46Speaker 1: a little bit more. Trap, let the people know, like,
- 36:48Speaker 1: I'm with you. I'm not just trying to, profit off
- 36:50Speaker 1: the culture or make it look like I'm trying to
- 36:53Speaker 1: damn near send motherfuckers to jail. Let them know you
- 36:56Speaker 1: with them. Let's get to the root of the problem.
- 36:58Speaker 1: Highlight that a little bit more.
- 36:59Speaker 3: You know how I see it? In music, in war,
- 37:04Speaker 3: There's always money.
- 37:05Speaker 4: Back in the days when Biggie and Tupac died, Vibe magazine,
- 37:09Speaker 4: Source magazine, everybody monopolized off of Tupac.
- 37:13Speaker 3: And Biggie beef.
- 37:14Speaker 4: Now you got NBA Youngboy and Dirk was the same thing.
- 37:19Speaker 4: Everybody's monopolizing off the beef. We can say what we
- 37:23Speaker 4: want to say, but NBA Youngboy had Lil Timmy on
- 37:26Speaker 4: stage in Atlanta after he killed Vaughn, right? Illegally, on stage,
- 37:33Speaker 4: you think that was one of the biggest tours ever,
- 37:36Speaker 4: made millions of dollars, because everybody bought.
- 37:39Speaker 3: Into the fucking story.
- 37:41Speaker 4: All I'm saying is everything is pretty much out there,
- 37:44Speaker 4: so every outlet is going to cover that story, because
- 37:47Speaker 4: we're buying into the story. When Boy got killed in LA,
- 37:51Speaker 4: niggas are buying into the story. Dirk beat all these cases. Hopefully,
- 37:55Speaker 4: I'm a Dirk fan and I'm an NBA Youngboy fan.
- 37:58Speaker 4: I don't take no sides. So if Dirk beat these cases,
- 38:02Speaker 4: he's going to go on tour and he's going to
- 38:04Speaker 4: be as big as NBA Youngboy, maybe bigger when he
- 38:07Speaker 4: beats this. Everybody buys into the story. So that's why
- 38:12Speaker 4: the violence don't really stop when you really think about it.
- 38:14Speaker 4: Chirac shit, I followed all that. I want to get
- 38:17Speaker 4: into the war at Jacksonville. I followed the young and
- 38:20Speaker 4: ace and foolio shit. I watched all that shit. Sometimes
- 38:25Speaker 4: I try to watch different shows than not watch violent shit.
- 38:27Speaker 4: I just watched A Different World on Netflix. Shout to
- 38:30Speaker 4: the mic, because I was a fan of A Different World.
- 38:32Speaker 3: I never thought I'd.
- 38:33Speaker 4: Watch it, because I'm addicted to Scarface and Goodfellas and
- 38:36Speaker 4: all the gangster shit we.
- 38:37Speaker 1: Grew up on.
- 38:38Speaker 2: Rob Markman I got to ask you something on that point,
- 38:40Speaker 2: because I agree with everything you just said, but I
- 38:42Speaker 2: get what you're saying. I do feel like if people
- 38:44Speaker 2: watch the longer videos that I've done, I try and
- 38:46Speaker 2: get into socioeconomic reasons that people are pushed to do
- 38:50Speaker 2: these things. But at the end of the day, let's
- 38:51Speaker 2: be real. This Dirk situation, when Lil Pab was murdered, allegedly,
- 38:57Speaker 2: it was alleged that Dirk was involved. He was found
- 38:58Speaker 2: not guilty. But at this point, he is a multimillionaire
- 39:01Speaker 2: that allegedly, those allegations, he shouldn't have been involved in
- 39:05Speaker 2: these things. And I get what you're saying when it's
- 39:08Speaker 2: kill or be killed and you're coming up in the
- 39:09Speaker 2: streets of Chicago and the guys around the corner have
- 39:11Speaker 2: killed your uncle and you've killed their cousin and you're
- 39:13Speaker 2: in a dog eat dog I need to just survive
- 39:16Speaker 2: and get home. I think that's a different scenario from
- 39:19Speaker 2: what was alleged was that Dirk was in a $ 35, 000
- 39:22Speaker 2: a month Encino mansion, allegedly organizing chess pieces to have
- 39:27Speaker 2: someone killed because he wasn't happy about something that King
- 39:29Speaker 2: Von did. and how that ended up going wrong. So
- 39:31Speaker 2: I just feel like I do agree with you, but
- 39:33Speaker 2: I feel like it's a little bit unfair to try
- 39:35Speaker 2: and paint... Like Dirk wasn't in No Kill or Be Killed.
- 39:38Speaker 2: It wasn't like the baby shooting a guy at Walmart
- 39:40Speaker 2: to defend himself and his kids. What was alleged that
- 39:43Speaker 2: Dirk did, he was in a position in life where
- 39:47Speaker 2: he was not supposed to be doing those things. And
- 39:50Speaker 2: obviously he's been found not guilty of five of those charges.
- 39:52Speaker 1: Because he didn't do those things, Trapp.
- 39:53Speaker 2: So do you think Dirk's like a capper, like a
- 39:55Speaker 2: cap rapper, like his raps are fake?
- 39:57Speaker 1: No, I just think he was just making music, making
- 39:59Speaker 1: good music that people wanted to hear. But for these
- 40:02Speaker 1: crimes that they tried to charge him with, he was
- 40:04Speaker 1: not guilty. No, he's not a cap rapper, Trapp. He
- 40:08Speaker 1: was just found not guilty of these crimes that they
- 40:11Speaker 1: tried to charge him with. He just has some fuck
- 40:13Speaker 1: boy friends around him, like the O.T. Jeff Jams and the,
- 40:16Speaker 1: Who have bells to all the rat niggas. He just
- 40:18Speaker 1: had some corny niggas around him. They was just corny.
- 40:21Speaker 1: And they was just trying to get they self out
- 40:22Speaker 1: of a situation. So they tried to paint a picture
- 40:25Speaker 1: because a nigga couldn't do three years. Now a nigga
- 40:28Speaker 1: gotta do life. You know what I mean?
- 40:30Speaker 2: I get what you're saying, but it's like, I mean,
- 40:31Speaker 2: I know you guys are gonna hate this, I don't
- 40:35Speaker 2: agree with it. I'm not in the streets.
- 40:36Speaker 1: All right.
- 40:37Speaker 2: So I find it hard to think about playing by
- 40:39Speaker 2: the street rules.
- 40:39Speaker 1: You try to be in the streets trap. It looked
- 40:41Speaker 1: like you tried.
- 40:42Speaker 3: I'm not in the streets. The man said he's not
- 40:44Speaker 3: in the streets. I'm very sorry.
- 40:46Speaker 1: He's not in the streets. We know that. So that's
- 40:48Speaker 1: why we here talking. What you about to say though?
- 40:49Speaker 2: But what I was going to say is that like, look,
- 40:51Speaker 2: I know you're going to hate this, but like, I
- 40:53Speaker 2: can understand why Jam did what he did. Cause he
- 40:56Speaker 2: was disgruntled. He got on that stand and he said,
- 40:58Speaker 2: I was pissed. Cause I just served 12 years. And
- 41:01Speaker 2: Dirk sent me on this dummy mission to kill a
- 41:02Speaker 2: guy in Beverly Hills. I didn't know what this... He
- 41:04Speaker 2: didn't know the hit that he was on until he
- 41:06Speaker 2: landed there.
- 41:07Speaker 1: Dirk just sent that nigga to do nothing. That's what
- 41:09Speaker 1: he said. Whatever he did, he did on his own,
- 41:11Speaker 1: that dumbass nigga. That's what he said. He did that
- 41:14Speaker 1: shit on his own. Yeah, we know what he said,
- 41:16Speaker 1: but he's a fuckboy. His word don't mean nothing.
- 41:18Speaker 2: Well, Dee Dee and Brown Eyes were convicted of the
- 41:21Speaker 2: stalking that resulted in death. So that whole group of
- 41:23Speaker 2: guys that went and did that, I mean, it happened.
- 41:27Speaker 1: It's a real thing.
- 41:28Speaker 2: I think I was quite frustrated because I felt like
- 41:30Speaker 2: during the trial, people was trying to act like Lil
- 41:32Speaker 2: Pab didn't exist. I mean, he's a real guy. Rest
- 41:34Speaker 2: in peace to Savaya Robinson. Him and his mother deserve justice.
- 41:38Speaker 2: His mother ain't no Gangbanger, OTFK.
- 41:41Speaker 1: You are really invested.
- 41:42Speaker 3: He's a civilian. He's telling you he's a civilian.
- 41:46Speaker 1: Trap is invested. You know how many people deserve justice
- 41:50Speaker 1: out this?
- 41:50Speaker 3: Yo, murder.
- 41:51Speaker 1: There's more civilians.
- 41:52Speaker 4: Murder.
- 41:52Speaker 3: There's more civilians in the world than gangsters.
- 41:55Speaker 1: Of course.
- 41:55Speaker 4: There's a small percentage of gangsters and niggas that's not
- 41:58Speaker 4: going to tell or people that's not going to tell
- 42:00Speaker 4: than civilians. In the real world, it's probably 70% civilians, 30% gangsters.
- 42:06Speaker 1: I'd probably say 80%.
- 42:08Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying? Let's just be honest. But
- 42:10Speaker 3: this is what people want to see.
- 42:12Speaker 4: The serial killer thing, 10 million views, three years ago.
- 42:17Speaker 4: Jacksonville War, which I want to talk about next, that
- 42:20Speaker 4: did 8 million views. I watched that. This is stuff
- 42:23Speaker 4: that I watch. Am I guilty of saying, oh shit. Then,
- 42:27Speaker 4: I like this artist. I like Bloodhound Jeff. You heard
- 42:29Speaker 4: me play shit. Don't blink and stare. His record with
- 42:33Speaker 4: G Herbo. I really listen to the young boys.
- 42:36Speaker 3: I like it. Because I know where we come from.
- 42:40Speaker 3: We made it.
- 42:40Speaker 1: I be just trying to understand Trap. Like, you want
- 42:43Speaker 1: Dirk to beat these cases, right? Because I almost be
- 42:46Speaker 1: getting a little sense like you like, man.
- 42:47Speaker 3: That's a good question.
- 42:48Speaker 1: He shouldn't have got off with it. I feel like,
- 42:50Speaker 1: because we happy. The people are happy that Dirk is
- 42:52Speaker 1: getting over this shit. We feel like he had the
- 42:54Speaker 1: wrong friends around him that did the corny shit. And
- 42:56Speaker 1: that's why they're in the situation they're in right now.
- 42:58Speaker 1: But you come off like a little bit like I'm
- 43:00Speaker 1: feeling like Trap. Like, man, Dirk was guilty.
- 43:04Speaker 3: No, no.
- 43:04Speaker 2: I never said that. I think a lot of people
- 43:06Speaker 2: was trying to get me to give a prediction. I
- 43:07Speaker 2: never said that Dirk's guilty. Dirk's going to. I said
- 43:09Speaker 2: that the evidence looks bad. He was having bad days.
- 43:12Speaker 2: The evidence, the feds made a very good case as
- 43:15Speaker 2: to why he was potentially involved in this. Now, I
- 43:19Speaker 2: wanted this case to be concluded because, bro, I want
- 43:20Speaker 2: to be able to walk around Beverly Hills and not
- 43:22Speaker 2: get shot with a machine gun. I think that's very
- 43:23Speaker 2: reasonable as a non-gangster civilian. I don't want to worry
- 43:26Speaker 2: about switches in Beverly Hills. I think that's fair. I
- 43:29Speaker 2: think this crime did need to be solved. I think
- 43:31Speaker 2: that's fair. I know you guys are more sympathetic to
- 43:34Speaker 2: the streets and the code of honor that somebody from
- 43:37Speaker 2: that background might want to live.
- 43:39Speaker 1: It's not just us. You know the police move the
- 43:40Speaker 1: same way, Trapp? You know the police don't tell on
- 43:43Speaker 1: each other, right?
- 43:44Speaker 3: I've heard that.
- 43:44Speaker 1: You know when police do? No, it's a fact. You see,
- 43:47Speaker 1: you need to do investigation on that. Like, real talk.
- 43:49Speaker 1: When the police do bullshit out here, they don't tell
- 43:52Speaker 1: on each other. They don't snitch on each other. When
- 43:55Speaker 1: they do bullshit, they just got to hold that. And
- 43:58Speaker 1: if they do tell on each other, they damn near
- 44:00Speaker 1: out it. They not even looked at the same, like
- 44:03Speaker 1: from the whole force, they're out it. So they got
- 44:05Speaker 1: to call, they follow. Even when the police, the police
- 44:08Speaker 1: break the law, the other police know not to tell
- 44:11Speaker 1: on them.
- 44:12Speaker 2: Yeah, but what's that got to do with what we're
- 44:13Speaker 2: talking about?
- 44:14Speaker 1: Because you talking about these crimes and certain shit, you
- 44:16Speaker 1: feel like how you look at this and how you
- 44:18Speaker 1: look at that, how you look at that. Oh, well,
- 44:20Speaker 1: you feel like Dirk did this or because this crime
- 44:22Speaker 1: is this. No.
- 44:23Speaker 2: But let's be real. Y'all just like Dirk's music, so
- 44:25Speaker 2: you just want him to get away with murder.
- 44:27Speaker 1: No, that's not the case. The man got... He's not...
- 44:30Speaker 1: He got found not guilty, Trapp.
- 44:32Speaker 2: They couldn't prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he did
- 44:34Speaker 2: this crime, but, like, bro, the guy had been rapping
- 44:35Speaker 2: about it for years.
- 44:36Speaker 3: He painted a picture that he was involved.
- 44:37Speaker 1: That's why I asked you, Trapp. I feel like you
- 44:38Speaker 1: want this man in jail.
- 44:39Speaker 2: I don't want this man in jail. I wanted the
- 44:41Speaker 2: crime to be solved. There are two people that were
- 44:43Speaker 2: found guilty of this stalking that resulted in death with
- 44:45Speaker 2: a machine gun. I don't think DD and them should
- 44:48Speaker 2: be on the streets if they're out here stalking people
- 44:50Speaker 2: with switches and Beverly Hills having them killed and innocent
- 44:53Speaker 2: people running off into the distance. I heard the phone call,
- 44:55Speaker 2: the 911 call. A woman calls up. She's like, I've
- 44:57Speaker 2: just seen someone be shot with a machine gun in
- 44:59Speaker 2: Beverly Hills. I don't want to be involved. I don't
- 45:01Speaker 2: want to give you any information. Even she didn't want
- 45:02Speaker 2: to tell. But you're hearing the normal everyday people that
- 45:05Speaker 2: are affected by just three people letting off switches or
- 45:09Speaker 2: one switch and two other regular guns. in Beverly Hills.
- 45:11Speaker 2: I'm not part of the gang. So I wanted that
- 45:13Speaker 2: crime to be solved. I didn't want Dirk to be convicted.
- 45:16Speaker 2: I didn't like, oh no, I'm so disappointed. Like, that's
- 45:18Speaker 2: not how I felt. To be honest, Dirk being found
- 45:21Speaker 2: not guilty really actually is the best thing to happen
- 45:23Speaker 2: for me. Because everybody was saying, oh, well, your documentary
- 45:25Speaker 2: is getting people convicted. Your coverage is going to get
- 45:27Speaker 2: Dirk convicted. Well, what happened to that? Clearly, I don't
- 45:29Speaker 2: have any say. So my documentaries are good to go.
- 45:32Speaker 2: Because I don't have a say.
- 45:33Speaker 1: We wasn't even going to interview you. If he got
- 45:35Speaker 1: found guilty, we wasn't going to have you up here. No,
- 45:37Speaker 1: but it's a fact, though. It's a fact.
- 45:39Speaker 2: But not guilty was good because I probably would have gotten...
- 45:42Speaker 2: I don't know what would have happened to me, but...
- 45:44Speaker 2: But like, you know what I'm saying?
- 45:47Speaker 4: We gotta stop the self snitching era.
- 45:49Speaker 3: Cause like when you.
- 45:50Speaker 4: Look at it, when you, we can't, we gotta say
- 45:53Speaker 4: that a lot of people self snitching too.
- 45:55Speaker 1: That's true. Right.
- 45:55Speaker 4: So when we look at the Jacksonville war with Fulio,
- 46:00Speaker 4: and Young Ace, right? Do we like the beef? Yeah,
- 46:03Speaker 4: but when you do records like Who I Smoked, and
- 46:06Speaker 4: like five to eight niggas, eight people, excuse me, eight
- 46:10Speaker 4: people is really dead. They family members is hearing that.
- 46:14Speaker 4: And then Fulio, rest in peace, do I See You,
- 46:18Speaker 4: and he's at the funeral, he's at the man graveyard,
- 46:23Speaker 4: his brother graveyard with the poster laying, when I see you,
- 46:26Speaker 4: and we talking about These things doing 20 million views,
- 46:30Speaker 4: 30 million views, so who's worse, the person that's reporting
- 46:34Speaker 4: it or the person that's doing it? Now fast forward,
- 46:37Speaker 4: because we could talk about Jacksonville, war, because 30 people
- 46:40Speaker 4: died in that, Murk, if you watch that. 30 people died, Foolio,
- 46:45Speaker 4: rest in pieces, dead, and Ace and Hood is like,
- 46:48Speaker 4: he can't even perform in Florida.
- 46:51Speaker 3: You know what I mean? He can't even perform.
- 46:52Speaker 4: Is it bad for business that you a real rapper
- 46:55Speaker 4: and people respect you so-called got bodies? Or is it
- 46:59Speaker 4: bad for business? Because he can't even go to Florida.
- 47:03Speaker 3: He can't even go to.
- 47:04Speaker 4: Where he lived at and perform or without police and
- 47:07Speaker 4: feds on him because it's all out there.
- 47:12Speaker 3: Talk about the Jacksonville War, because that did like, what,
- 47:14Speaker 3: 8 million views, I believe?
- 47:16Speaker 2: Something like that, yeah. I mean, I did a follow-up
- 47:18Speaker 2: to it recently that's been, you know, having an impact,
- 47:21Speaker 2: I would say.
- 47:22Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 47:22Speaker 2: I mean, I want to just make it clear as well.
- 47:24Speaker 2: I'm not, like, obsessed with a number. To me, I
- 47:27Speaker 2: appreciate that a lot of people watch my videos and
- 47:29Speaker 2: have a lot of reach, but it's like, you know,
- 47:31Speaker 2: to me, I feel like impact is so important and
- 47:33Speaker 2: really helping change people's perception. I would say that, like,
- 47:36Speaker 2: I'm less interested in the numbers on the new Jacksonville
- 47:39Speaker 2: video I did. There was a moment, a clip in
- 47:41Speaker 2: that video that I found that really impacted me. And
- 47:43Speaker 2: I felt like a lot of people in the comments
- 47:45Speaker 2: really felt something from this moment that I found. And
- 47:48Speaker 2: there's a really sad moment where, you know, one of Ace's,
- 47:51Speaker 2: you know, homies that was with him, he was 23, right?
- 47:55Speaker 2: I don't know if you know the case, but obviously
- 47:58Speaker 2: Ace got shot up on his brother's birthday.
- 47:59Speaker 3: His brother's birthday in a car. And three people died
- 48:01Speaker 3: and he survived.
- 48:02Speaker 2: And, you know, there's a really sad clip of 23's
- 48:06Speaker 2: son at his gravesite and he's calling out to his
- 48:08Speaker 2: father at the grave, calling out, for his daddy. And
- 48:11Speaker 2: that really affected me. And I feel like a lot
- 48:13Speaker 2: of people in the comments really felt like, man, things
- 48:15Speaker 2: like that made me realize how real this is. It's
- 48:17Speaker 2: not who I smoke making fun of these guys. That's
- 48:20Speaker 2: the real human cost. And I feel like covering this
- 48:23Speaker 2: stuff is so important to show that. And I feel
- 48:26Speaker 2: like sometimes people say like, oh, you glorify these kinds
- 48:29Speaker 2: of things. I really feel like if you watch one
- 48:30Speaker 2: of my videos, I think the last thing you're going
- 48:32Speaker 2: to want to do is be in the streets. If
- 48:33Speaker 2: you watch the Lil Jeff video I did all the
- 48:35Speaker 2: way to the end, I don't think you come away
- 48:37Speaker 2: from that thinking like, oh, I want to go out
- 48:38Speaker 2: like Lil Jeff. You come away from it thinking like, damn,
- 48:40Speaker 2: that really is a horrible way to go out, horrible
- 48:43Speaker 2: situation to deal with. And just relating it back to
- 48:45Speaker 2: the Dirk situation, but like grounded it in Jacksonville, I
- 48:48Speaker 2: think that the guys in Jacksonville, unfortunately, that Who I
- 48:52Speaker 2: Smoke thing was massive. But from what I understood, it
- 48:55Speaker 2: wasn't quite enough. It didn't change everybody's life and get
- 48:58Speaker 2: them out of that situation. Unfortunately for Fulio, he became
- 49:02Speaker 2: super famous and he was having success, was probably a millionaire,
- 49:04Speaker 2: but he wasn't in the position where he could move
- 49:07Speaker 2: to a mansion in California, maybe like Dirk was in.
- 49:09Speaker 2: Dirk was probably in a much more elevated position than
- 49:12Speaker 2: some of the guys dealing with the Jacksonville situation. And
- 49:14Speaker 2: Fulio couldn't even go out of his house to buy
- 49:16Speaker 2: a vape without getting shot. you know they tried to
- 49:18Speaker 2: kill him over and over and over again until they
- 49:19Speaker 2: got him and you know that's just how serious that
- 49:22Speaker 2: situation got where it was like guys could not move
- 49:24Speaker 2: around because the music had gotten so disrespectful everybody involved
- 49:28Speaker 2: had kind of become famous but apart from Ace and
- 49:31Speaker 2: Fulio it's a lot of those guys weren't getting serious
- 49:33Speaker 2: money they weren't really able to like move out of
- 49:35Speaker 2: the city and change their lives like a Lil Durk,
- 49:38Speaker 2: G Herbo, Chief Keef who have been able to do that.
- 49:41Speaker 2: And I think that's one of the saddest things about
- 49:42Speaker 2: Jacksonville is it felt like those diss songs, they gave
- 49:46Speaker 2: those guys an opportunity and a platform to maybe change
- 49:48Speaker 2: their lives and go mainstream. But I think unfortunately, a
- 49:51Speaker 2: lot of the guys fell back into that cycle and
- 49:54Speaker 2: ended up basically, you know, not making it out to
- 49:57Speaker 2: the mainstream. Even Ace, you know, if you see that video,
- 50:00Speaker 2: there's multiple clips of Ace, you know, getting pulled over
- 50:03Speaker 2: on body cam.
- 50:03Speaker 3: He can't really move around.
- 50:04Speaker 2: He's not allowed to have a gun, but he can't
- 50:05Speaker 2: go outside without a gun. even out of state in Houston.
- 50:09Speaker 3: They're on him.
- 50:09Speaker 2: The cops are following him everywhere. So it's a tough
- 50:12Speaker 2: situation he's in. He can't play shows.
- 50:13Speaker 3: How many people died in that war?
- 50:15Speaker 2: Oh, man, it's hard to count, but in that second
- 50:19Speaker 2: video alone, I covered 33 different murders. And that's over
- 50:22Speaker 2: like a six-year period.
- 50:24Speaker 4: And now nobody's making music. Now the whole scene is
- 50:27Speaker 4: kind of pretty much dead out there.
- 50:28Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think having covered a lot of
- 50:31Speaker 2: different drill scenes in different cities and countries too, I
- 50:34Speaker 2: feel like, unfortunately, it is hard for people to break out.
- 50:37Speaker 2: And again, not to bring it back too much, but like,
- 50:39Speaker 2: that's why I think I did feel like when Dirk
- 50:41Speaker 2: was charged with this case, that's why it was disappointing
- 50:44Speaker 2: because he was doing all my life. They were trying
- 50:47Speaker 2: to keep me, all this positive stuff. But then it's
- 50:48Speaker 2: kind of like, ah, it was disappointing as a fan
- 50:51Speaker 2: to feel like, oh man, how are you in this
- 50:53Speaker 2: situation when you really, you should be so far removed
- 50:55Speaker 2: from it. Conversely, you look at someone like Chief Keefe,
- 50:59Speaker 2: Rarely goes back to Chicago.
- 51:00Speaker 1: There's a black man in America and they tried to
- 51:01Speaker 1: fuck him over, man. He only got two more charges
- 51:03Speaker 1: to beat, track.
- 51:04Speaker 2: But why ain't Chief Keef got no murder for higher charges?
- 51:06Speaker 3: Because Chief Keef moved out the hood.
- 51:08Speaker 1: He moved out the hood because he didn't do that.
- 51:10Speaker 3: He moved out of Chicago.
- 51:11Speaker 1: Dirk don't got no charges, no murder for higher charges either.
- 51:13Speaker 1: He beat them.
- 51:14Speaker 2: No, but what I'm saying is that that's why as
- 51:15Speaker 2: a fan it was disappointing to at least believe for
- 51:18Speaker 2: a period of time that Dirk was still involved in
- 51:20Speaker 2: these things that were dragging him back. And let's talk
- 51:22Speaker 2: about an elephant in the room that nobody ever wants
- 51:24Speaker 2: to talk about. Really, King Von was in the wrong
- 51:26Speaker 2: for what he did that night to Kondo Rondo. Would
- 51:28Speaker 2: you not think?
- 51:30Speaker 1: I'm not even sure what happened then.
- 51:32Speaker 4: I usually don't like to take sides, but I feel
- 51:36Speaker 4: like King Von's team was wrong. Because once you're worth money,
- 51:40Speaker 4: management or whoever did, your team is supposed to stop you.
- 51:44Speaker 4: Your team is supposed to say, no, you can't jump
- 51:45Speaker 4: out the window here. Or your team is supposed to
- 51:48Speaker 4: let you know. Because it ain't where you from, it's
- 51:51Speaker 4: where you at. So we know Chicago was one of
- 51:54Speaker 4: the most dangerous places to survive. But I think sometimes
- 51:57Speaker 4: with the Von situation, you get so comfortable leaving Chicago
- 52:01Speaker 4: that you might think Atlanta or New York or this place,
- 52:05Speaker 4: or it could be fucking Cincinnati, St.
- 52:08Speaker 1: Louis.
- 52:08Speaker 3: You could think it's a catwalk when it's real everywhere. Yeah,
- 52:12Speaker 3: I agree with you.
- 52:13Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's difficult because I feel like really,
- 52:17Speaker 2: you know, I don't know how you guys move, but
- 52:19Speaker 2: I would think if you guys were doing a club
- 52:21Speaker 2: appearance and you had your team or your security or whatever,
- 52:24Speaker 2: and somebody just starts beating you up uncontrollably, pronounced, I
- 52:27Speaker 2: don't know what would happen, but you would think that
- 52:29Speaker 2: that's not an acceptable situation to be allowed. Vlad has
- 52:31Speaker 2: said it a lot of times that when he's with
- 52:33Speaker 2: his security, if somebody just starts beating him up, he
- 52:35Speaker 2: would expect the threat to be neutralized in a legal fashion.
- 52:39Speaker 2: But like Lil Tim, that was a legal killing. That
- 52:42Speaker 2: was a self-defense killing. He was never charged with murder.
- 52:45Speaker 2: It was weird to see in court, Dirk's lawyers keep
- 52:47Speaker 2: saying King Von was murdered when, you know, by the
- 52:50Speaker 2: legal definition, it was a self-defense killing.
- 52:52Speaker 3: He was defending.
- 52:54Speaker 2: he was defending his people and other guys there that
- 52:56Speaker 2: were with von had guns but i just want to
- 52:58Speaker 2: say that it's like i just find it it's disappointing
- 53:00Speaker 2: the position that dirk was in to king von was
- 53:04Speaker 2: really putting out very bad energy you know he sucker
- 53:07Speaker 2: punched quando rondo it created this horrible situation other people
- 53:11Speaker 2: got killed that night and you know other people have
- 53:13Speaker 2: been killed since then dirk's been found not guilty but
- 53:16Speaker 2: obviously you know dd one of the top otf members
- 53:19Speaker 2: was found guilty.
- 53:20Speaker 1: Of the killing found not guilty right right I mean, yeah.
- 53:23Speaker 1: I just got to make sure. Because sometimes when you
- 53:26Speaker 1: say Dirk's found, I got to make sure you're happy
- 53:28Speaker 1: he's found not guilty.
- 53:29Speaker 2: No, but I'm happy the case was resolved and that
- 53:31Speaker 2: we got to the truth.
- 53:32Speaker 1: Okay.
- 53:33Speaker 2: That's how I feel, honestly. I feel like you can't
- 53:36Speaker 2: let off machine guns in Beverly Hills, bro.
- 53:38Speaker 1: And Dirk didn't have no knowledge of the shit. See that? See,
- 53:42Speaker 1: there you go. There you go right there, Trapp.
- 53:43Speaker 2: I don't know if you can say that, though. I
- 53:45Speaker 2: don't know if you can say that Dirk had no
- 53:46Speaker 2: knowledge of it. And you can say that it wasn't
- 53:49Speaker 2: proven beyond a reasonable doubt that.
- 53:50Speaker 3: He did the murder for hire, but he- I think,
- 53:53Speaker 3: you know what I think? This is what I can
- 53:55Speaker 3: tell both of y'all. This is what.
- 53:56Speaker 1: I'm going to tell the trap.
- 53:58Speaker 3: Just keep it real. We know what does numbers.
- 54:01Speaker 4: If you talk about something positive, I can have a
- 54:04Speaker 4: guy come up here and talk about six brands, right?
- 54:07Speaker 4: He can have a deal with the Knicks, the Yankees, this, that,
- 54:10Speaker 4: and they want to hear some violent shit. Because at
- 54:12Speaker 4: the end of the day, when I go to Chicago,
- 54:15Speaker 4: I stay at the Waldorf.
- 54:16Speaker 3: I'm eating creme brulee. You know what I'm saying?
- 54:19Speaker 4: But you got tourists that are crazy, and some of
- 54:22Speaker 4: them are white, some of them are Caucasian. They want
- 54:24Speaker 4: to go to O-Block. They kicking guys out of O-Block.
- 54:28Speaker 4: I seen Neon go to O-Block.
- 54:30Speaker 1: O-Block?
- 54:31Speaker 3: What do I want to go there for?
- 54:33Speaker 4: So I think it's all about people, places, and things,
- 54:36Speaker 4: and just a way of thinking when it comes in
- 54:38Speaker 4: the audience. Like I said, the Jacksonville shit, they brought
- 54:41Speaker 4: that up. Who I smoke, I listen to that. When
- 54:44Speaker 4: I see you, I watch that video too. I can't be,
- 54:48Speaker 4: I'm guilty of it too.
- 54:49Speaker 3: I'm not perfect. Bloodhound Lil Jeff, I bought into that too.
- 54:53Speaker 1: Rob Markman, What made you want to start covering the
- 54:55Speaker 1: drill and things of that nature? What made you want
- 54:58Speaker 1: to start covering these stories like that? Man.
- 55:00Speaker 2: So I've been doing YouTube like 10 years, right? And
- 55:03Speaker 2: I did a lot of different type of videos. When
- 55:05Speaker 2: I started YouTube, I've been a hip hop fan my
- 55:07Speaker 2: entire life since I was five or six, first listening
- 55:10Speaker 2: to music. I had two older brothers that one of
- 55:13Speaker 2: them made beats, one of them wanted to rap, just
- 55:15Speaker 2: having a little bit of fun. And I would just
- 55:17Speaker 2: steal their CDs and their records and their tapes. And
- 55:20Speaker 2: I just loved hip hop growing up. It was just
- 55:22Speaker 2: always my passion. I was like the odd one out
- 55:24Speaker 2: in school. Not too many people were into hip hop.
- 55:26Speaker 2: I had like one homie, Freddie, who was like the
- 55:28Speaker 2: other hip hop head. And we were just share music
- 55:30Speaker 2: and go to shows and stuff. But when I started
- 55:32Speaker 2: doing YouTube, I used to do lots of different things.
- 55:34Speaker 2: I did like comedy skits. I would do reaction videos.
- 55:37Speaker 2: Like I'd react to a lot of like UK rap videos, like,
- 55:39Speaker 2: you know, Skepta from the UK, one of the goats
- 55:43Speaker 2: of the UK, you know, I would react to his
- 55:45Speaker 2: music videos on YouTube. None of this ever got any traction.
- 55:47Speaker 2: I wasn't getting any views or any followers, but it
- 55:49Speaker 2: was just for fun. I just was interested in it
- 55:52Speaker 2: and I would do it. Now, the first video I
- 55:54Speaker 2: did that just took off completely organically out of the blue.
- 55:57Speaker 2: You know, a friend of mine said, oh, you should
- 55:58Speaker 2: do like a story breakdown of like some of the
- 56:00Speaker 2: hip hop stories you'd be talking about. And I was
- 56:01Speaker 2: kind of like, I don't know if people are going
- 56:03Speaker 2: to be into that.
- 56:03Speaker 3: Let me try that out.
- 56:04Speaker 2: And then the first one I did was about when
- 56:07Speaker 2: Jay-Z shot his brother when he was 12. If you
- 56:09Speaker 2: know that story.
- 56:10Speaker 1: So he rapped about it.
- 56:11Speaker 2: He rapped about it. And, you know, there's different biographies
- 56:14Speaker 2: where people have broken it down. And allegedly his brother
- 56:16Speaker 2: was a crackhead and was stealing from the family. And
- 56:18Speaker 2: then age 12, Jay-Z allegedly, you know, straighten the situation
- 56:23Speaker 2: out or whatever it was.
- 56:24Speaker 3: And there's a lot of lyrics.
- 56:25Speaker 1: You just heard the story and ran with it, right?
- 56:27Speaker 1: I put my verse.
- 56:27Speaker 3: Well, there's lyrics and biographies.
- 56:29Speaker 1: Of course, of course.
- 56:30Speaker 2: He's touched on it. But like, it's like one of
- 56:32Speaker 2: those legendary stories. And that video just took off. It
- 56:36Speaker 2: wasn't necessarily about gangs, but it was like a hip
- 56:39Speaker 2: hop crime, urban legend, kind of like, oh, dude, you
- 56:42Speaker 2: know this. And then from there, I started covering all
- 56:44Speaker 2: different types of things. So one of the first things
- 56:46Speaker 2: I did, I was more interested actually in the UK
- 56:48Speaker 2: drill scene. gangster stuff that was going on. And again,
- 56:51Speaker 2: a lot of people say, oh, you don't do anything
- 56:52Speaker 2: about UK. Like one of my third or fourth videos
- 56:54Speaker 2: I ever did on hip hop history kind of thing
- 56:57Speaker 2: was like a dictionary of UK drill.
- 56:59Speaker 3: Cause we have all these.
- 56:59Speaker 2: Like weird words for like guns or skangs and whaps
- 57:03Speaker 2: and dots. And like, we have all these different words
- 57:06Speaker 2: of talking about our gang activity. And a lot of
- 57:09Speaker 2: the UK rappers would use this very like colorful language
- 57:12Speaker 2: to describe what was going on in the streets. And
- 57:15Speaker 2: not a lot of people understood this was like early
- 57:16Speaker 2: days of UK drill, like 2019. So I did that video.
- 57:20Speaker 2: It wasn't particularly popular, but I was just passionate about
- 57:21Speaker 2: it because all the gangster rappers in my area, where
- 57:23Speaker 2: I was living in South London, there was murders going on.
- 57:26Speaker 2: I would see streets getting taped off and I would
- 57:29Speaker 2: hear about these drill songs. There was a rapper in
- 57:31Speaker 2: the area called Incognito who beat a murder case and
- 57:34Speaker 2: then he ended up getting killed a few streets away
- 57:35Speaker 2: from where I lived. So I was following that, but
- 57:39Speaker 2: I was also super interested in American rap.
- 57:41Speaker 3: So I did a video about how.
- 57:42Speaker 2: Gucci Mane caught a murder case and ended up beating
- 57:45Speaker 2: it on self-defense with the whole background with the beef
- 57:47Speaker 2: with Jeezy. But it wasn't just crime and gangster rap.
- 57:51Speaker 2: I did a video about how Frank Ocean, you know,
- 57:53Speaker 2: did a $ 20 million deal with Def Jam and ended
- 57:55Speaker 2: up finessing them and dropping like a fake album and
- 57:58Speaker 2: then a real album afterwards. You know, I did a lot.
- 58:01Speaker 2: I did the Rick Ross 50 Cent Beef. That was
- 58:03Speaker 2: one of my big early viral videos of like 50 taking.
- 58:06Speaker 3: Shout out to 50. Shout out to 50, man. Come on,
- 58:08Speaker 3: the legend.
- 58:09Speaker 2: Like when he was taking Rick Ross's baby mom shopping.
- 58:11Speaker 3: And all that kind of stuff.
- 58:12Speaker 1: Legendary.
- 58:13Speaker 2: So at the time, there weren't many people doing full
- 58:16Speaker 2: breakdowns of that. But I remember being, being younger, watching
- 58:18Speaker 2: all that on like, was it this is 50.com and
- 58:20Speaker 2: shit like following that and be like, yo, like what's
- 58:22Speaker 2: 50 done to Rick today. This is crazy. But actually
- 58:25Speaker 2: like remembering those stories and breaking them down. And that
- 58:28Speaker 2: was probably one of my first like real viral videos
- 58:30Speaker 2: that hit a few hundred K cause people liked how
- 58:32Speaker 2: I broke it down and I had the jokes and, um,
- 58:35Speaker 2: all that kind of thing. But you know, the, one
- 58:37Speaker 2: of the street stories that did really well was when
- 58:39Speaker 2: I did the baby self-defense shooting in Walmart. And that
- 58:43Speaker 2: was crazy. Cause it was like, again, It was alleged, right?
- 58:48Speaker 2: But it was like, you know, he did a, like
- 58:51Speaker 2: an Instagram story afterwards. And then he did the Vlad interview.
- 58:54Speaker 2: And then he kind of, as time went on, you know,
- 58:55Speaker 2: he beat the case officially and he opened up about it.
- 58:57Speaker 2: So by the time I could cover it, he, you
- 59:00Speaker 2: could piece together the whole story. And at the time
- 59:03Speaker 2: DaBaby was really on the rise. I was a huge
- 59:04Speaker 2: fan of DaBaby's music. I don't cover people unless I'm
- 59:07Speaker 2: genuinely into the music, you know, it's, I have to
- 59:10Speaker 2: genuinely be into the music. So like, I was always
- 59:12Speaker 2: a fan of Chief Keef and Dirk. And when Von
- 59:14Speaker 2: started making noise in like 2019, 2020, like I was
- 59:18Speaker 2: a fan of his. So I did a full, I
- 59:20Speaker 2: actually did three King Von videos back to back that
- 59:23Speaker 2: were really popular. And obviously then I got into it
- 59:25Speaker 2: with his team and they did a copyright strike and
- 59:28Speaker 2: wanted to take my channel down. And then we ended
- 59:29Speaker 2: up Working it out.
- 59:31Speaker 1: Took the video down, man.
- 59:32Speaker 2: So here's what happened, right? I dropped three King Von
- 59:35Speaker 2: videos back to back, all right? And it was like,
- 59:38Speaker 2: to be honest, it was probably like two positive ones
- 59:41Speaker 2: and one negative one. Because at the time I was
- 59:42Speaker 2: obsessed with King Von.
- 59:43Speaker 3: Two positive, one negative.
- 59:44Speaker 1: You said you was obsessed with King Von.
- 59:45Speaker 2: At the time I was obsessed with King Von. And
- 59:47Speaker 2: people have said that, someone said, I can't remember who
- 59:48Speaker 2: it was, but someone brought me on a pod. I
- 59:50Speaker 2: felt like they were trying to catch me out. And
- 59:51Speaker 2: they were like, would you say you're obsessed with King Von?
- 59:53Speaker 2: And I was like, yeah, for sure.
- 59:55Speaker 3: Like, I know everything.
- 59:56Speaker 2: I'll tell you everything about King Von. So at the
- 59:59Speaker 2: time when I'm first discovering this, I'm like.
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: This is crazy. This is the crap.
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: This guy really talking about, he got seven bodies and
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: he really doing this and he's shooting everybody, including the
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: blanks in here.
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: So you was obsessed with the balance.
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: I was obsessed with the persona. I was obsessed with
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: like this guy, the same way. It's like when I
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: found it, when you hear the story of like 50 cent,
- 1:00:16Speaker 2: he got shot nine times and he came back and
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: he went diamond. And he, he, you know, I mean, shit,
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: we want to talk about it. Like if you don't
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: like what I do, what do you think of what
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: 50 did when he dropped ghetto Quran? Like, He was
- 1:00:25Speaker 2: talking about the stuff that was going on in the
- 1:00:27Speaker 2: neighborhood and kind of letting people, not telling, but he
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: was like kind of paying homage to the street stuff
- 1:00:34Speaker 2: that was going on in his era. And I feel
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: like everybody respects that, right?
- 1:00:37Speaker 4: Well, let's talk about, you could talk about Tupac when
- 1:00:40Speaker 4: you talked about- Even the guys that he was talking
- 1:00:43Speaker 4: about in the song respected it.
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: They respected it.
- 1:00:46Speaker 4: But if we rewind, we could talk about when Pac
- 1:00:50Speaker 4: dropped Machiavelli and he talked about Jag and Henchmen in
- 1:00:53Speaker 4: them and we was buying into it because we know
- 1:00:55Speaker 4: this was real street shit going on.
- 1:00:57Speaker 3: People buying into the street shit. And that's what they
- 1:01:01Speaker 3: want to watch.
- 1:01:02Speaker 4: And sometimes it turns out good, sometimes it turns out bad,
- 1:01:06Speaker 4: from what I see.
- 1:01:07Speaker 3: What you think about the MO3 trial with Yellow Beezy?
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: Man, yeah, I just was getting a little update on, obviously,
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: Keywon White, the alleged shooter, just been found guilty. Rob Markman, Jr.
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: Is he working with the prosecutor now?
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: Rob Markman, Jr.: Yeah, you're calling the.
- 1:01:19Speaker 3: Dirty drawers killer. Rob Markman, Jr.: The dirty drawers killer
- 1:01:21Speaker 3: is crazy.
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: Rob Markman, Jr.
- 1:01:22Speaker 3: The cops don't catch you by saying.
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: Rob Markman, Jr.: We're not laughing about the situation though.
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: Rob Markman, Jr.
- 1:01:26Speaker 3: We ain't laughing about the situation at all, but you
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: wear the same drawers for three days. It's kind of crazy.
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: Rob Markman, Jr.
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: That's who you got to be scared of, man.
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: Rob Markman, Jr.: Yeah. Rob Markman, Jr.
- 1:01:32Speaker 2: That's who you got to be scared of. You got
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: nothing to lose.
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: Rob Markman, Jr.
- 1:01:34Speaker 3: Yeah, he got nothing to lose. He ain't even showered.
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: Rob Markman, Jr.: I think he just said he shot
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: Bootsy or some shit.
- 1:01:37Speaker 3: Rob Markman, Jr.
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: Yeah, he did, yeah. Rob Markman, Jr.: I see him
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: and Bootsy.
- 1:01:41Speaker 2: Was going back and man so i did a documentary
- 1:01:43Speaker 2: on that pretty early on before it was really known
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: who was involved in that kind of thing um and
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: obviously really what i got from that you know a
- 1:01:51Speaker 2: shout out to rainwater who i've met a couple of
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: times um most three was just such a great talent
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: but he was unfortunately a real menace out there in
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: dallas he was causing a lot of problems he was
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: turning up to what was he turned there's a video
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: where he went on ig live and he like turned
- 1:02:03Speaker 2: up to yellow beezy's office with ar talking about like
- 1:02:06Speaker 2: yo like i'm outside what's going on like He was
- 1:02:08Speaker 2: doing crazy stuff. And, you know, allegedly it came out later.
- 1:02:11Speaker 2: I covered it in the documentary because, again, he hinted
- 1:02:13Speaker 2: at it that he allegedly was the one that shot
- 1:02:15Speaker 2: up Yella Beezy's G-Wagon on the highway and ran him
- 1:02:18Speaker 2: off the road.
- 1:02:19Speaker 3: He nearly died. Fortunately, he survived.
- 1:02:20Speaker 2: I think Yella Beezy is a great artist. I think
- 1:02:23Speaker 2: that Mo3 was such a great talent. He could sing.
- 1:02:26Speaker 2: He could do the melodies as well as the rap.
- 1:02:28Speaker 2: So he was it was so sad that he was
- 1:02:30Speaker 2: taken before his time. But I also think he was
- 1:02:32Speaker 2: doing a little bit too much. He was being very,
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: very aggressive with it. But then at the same time, now,
- 1:02:38Speaker 2: you know, you're looking at Yella Beezy's being charged with
- 1:02:40Speaker 2: murder for hire. And I don't know what's going to
- 1:02:43Speaker 2: happen with that, obviously.
- 1:02:45Speaker 3: Is this kid flipping now? Because I know at first
- 1:02:46Speaker 3: he wasn't telling.
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: He's claiming he's not. He's claiming he's not telling that
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: he did that all by himself. But, I mean, damn near,
- 1:02:52Speaker 2: he's doing interviews damn near like right now. I see
- 1:02:55Speaker 2: he did a, I think it was Cam Capone or
- 1:02:56Speaker 2: someone else.
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: He did an interview.
- 1:02:57Speaker 3: Here we go. Right after. Killers doing interviews.
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: You gotta eat.
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: But I think the thing with him is it's like,
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: I mean, you know, he's talking about how he shot
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: Boosie and he said, you know, Boosie was there for
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: a vigil for Mo3 and then he went to the,
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: it was like, I think it's called Big T's. It
- 1:03:14Speaker 2: was like a famous spot in Dallas, like a famous
- 1:03:16Speaker 2: marketplace in Dallas.
- 1:03:17Speaker 3: Rest in peace to Mo3.
- 1:03:18Speaker 2: Yeah, rest in peace to Mo3. And then, you know,
- 1:03:20Speaker 2: it was just, That Ki-Won guy had gone up to
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: Boosie on some clout chasing, like, oh yeah, let me
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: play you my music, and Boosie weren't trying to hear it,
- 1:03:27Speaker 2: and then he shot up Boosie's car, like, dude's just
- 1:03:30Speaker 2: a loose cannon out here, you know, I mean, someone
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: like that, again, look, people think I'm the police, but like,
- 1:03:36Speaker 2: that guy Ki-Won at Kill Mode 3, bro, he shouldn't
- 1:03:38Speaker 2: be out here in the streets, he trying to play
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: Boosie his music, and then he's shooting Boosie in the leg.
- 1:03:42Speaker 2: leaning out the Audi, shooting up the car, like, bro,
- 1:03:44Speaker 2: that guy should be in prison. I'm sorry. Like, you know,
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: that guy needs to be away from me.
- 1:03:47Speaker 3: He's a civilian, Murray. I don't want to run into him.
- 1:03:50Speaker 3: He's a civilian.
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: You know, but we come at it from different points
- 1:03:53Speaker 2: of view. I understand a lot of people, maybe they
- 1:03:55Speaker 2: feel like, you know, that should be handled in the
- 1:03:57Speaker 2: streets or whatever. But like for me, if someone comes
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: up to me and says, I want to play you
- 1:04:01Speaker 2: my music and I'm not interested and they shoot me
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: in the leg, bro, I put them in jail for
- 1:04:04Speaker 2: a long time.
- 1:04:05Speaker 3: Keep them away from me.
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: We understand that a civilian's supposed to feel that way.
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: But is that not reasonable?
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: But then we'll go, why a civilian is putting himself
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: so much in the culture then? Who, me? The U.S.A.
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: Why is he putting himself so much in the culture?
- 1:04:18Speaker 3: He loves it and he's eating off it. I forget
- 1:04:20Speaker 3: they're eating, right?
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: This is a question I've always got.
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: You can't forget to eat and you're eating off it, right?
- 1:04:25Speaker 2: That's not why I do it though. That's not what
- 1:04:26Speaker 2: motivates me. I'm genuinely coming at this from a passionate
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: point of view. What do you feel like I shouldn't
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: have an opinion about the streets because I'm not from
- 1:04:36Speaker 2: the streets?
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: No, never said that.
- 1:04:38Speaker 2: No, but do you feel like that's how people kind of,
- 1:04:40Speaker 2: because I feel like that's how people do me. And
- 1:04:42Speaker 2: I really just feel like, I feel like it's important
- 1:04:45Speaker 2: for a civilian, for a nerd, for an outsider to
- 1:04:48Speaker 2: have an opinion on the Dirk case. Because if I
- 1:04:50Speaker 2: wasn't the only one having my opinion on the Dirk
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: case saying, hey, look, maybe you shouldn't shoot machine guns
- 1:04:54Speaker 2: and switches in Beverly Hills. What would we have otherwise?
- 1:04:57Speaker 2: Everyone just bigging up Dirk saying this is the best
- 1:04:59Speaker 2: thing ever.
- 1:04:59Speaker 3: Like this is what we should do. I don't know,
- 1:05:01Speaker 3: I just find it difficult to say.
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: Rob Markman, Jr.: No, we don't want to see Machine
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: Guns being shot at Beverly Hills. We don't want to
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: see it being shot nowhere. We don't want to see
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: him being shot in the ghetto or none of that shit.
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: We don't want the hood getting shot up. It don't
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: got to be Beverly Hills. We don't want nowhere getting
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: shot up. But when you say sometimes when you say
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: you're a fan, that's why I ask you, are you
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: a fan of Dirk? Do you want to see Dirk
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: beat this case? Do you want to see this man?
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: get home to his wife and his kids and back
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: to his family and provide for those that need him.
- 1:05:31Speaker 1: Because sometimes it could come off as you don't. Sometimes
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: it could come off like, damn, it's looking like Trap
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: Lord Ross want Dirk to go down, man. But then
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: you saying like, yo, I'm a fan of hip hop.
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: I'm a fan. I'm a fan. But sometimes, you know,
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: it could come off as it's looking like you want
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: his demise.
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: But just because I'm a fan of his music and
- 1:05:47Speaker 2: I think he's a talented music, what he should just
- 1:05:49Speaker 2: be able to do whatever he wants.
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: No, nobody says.
- 1:05:51Speaker 3: Okay, put it this way. DD, he was a rapper.
- 1:05:54Speaker 3: He had songs. He had Block His Heart. He had
- 1:05:56Speaker 3: some good moments.
- 1:05:57Speaker 2: He's been found guilty of the stalking that resulted in
- 1:05:59Speaker 2: the death of Saviah Robinson with a machine gun, machine
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: gun fire in Beverly Hills. I don't think he should
- 1:06:03Speaker 2: be at home feeding his family. He's been found guilty
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: of this horrible crime, flew from Chicago to LA to
- 1:06:11Speaker 2: assist in a whole group of people letting machine guns
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: off in Beverly Hills. I don't care about him wanting
- 1:06:17Speaker 2: to feed his... Bro, you need to be off the.
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: Streets, bro. You can't be organizing machine guns. His family
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: still need to be taken care of.
- 1:06:21Speaker 3: Yeah, but he should have.
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: His family still need to be taken care of.
- 1:06:23Speaker 2: But that's his responsibility to not get in that situation. Like,
- 1:06:26Speaker 2: I feel like the thing that's missing with the Dirk situation...
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: I respect Dirk. I think his music's great. But if
- 1:06:31Speaker 2: he was found guilty of those crimes, it's not my
- 1:06:34Speaker 2: problem that, like, oh, his family's not going to be
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: able to eat. Like, he should have thought of that
- 1:06:37Speaker 2: before he got into this situation. I mean, he was
- 1:06:39Speaker 2: found not guilty. But let's say Didi, for example.
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: Like, you know.
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: Didi can't play the victim and be like, oh, why
- 1:06:45Speaker 2: I can't feed my family. You don't have the right
- 1:06:47Speaker 2: to feed your family if you're out here doing things
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: that will make it hard for you to feed your family.
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: Does that make sense? Of course.
- 1:06:52Speaker 2: So like, I just feel like a lot of people
- 1:06:55Speaker 2: are hypnotized by Dirk's fame. And they just feel like,
- 1:06:59Speaker 2: forget anything he ever did.
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: You hypnotized. You were just over here saying you obsessed
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: with Von and Dirk. So you hypnotized as well.
- 1:07:08Speaker 2: I don't know if I'd say that. I just feel
- 1:07:09Speaker 2: like I'm obsessed with the case and I'm obsessed with
- 1:07:11Speaker 2: the history and I'm obsessed with the art history. But
- 1:07:13Speaker 2: it's like, you got people that basically feel like, because
- 1:07:15Speaker 2: Dirk makes good music, he can do no wrong.
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: No, but you feel like everything he's saying in the
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: music is true. And sometimes you got to just respect
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: the art form.
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: I believe him. I don't think he's a cat rapper.
- 1:07:25Speaker 3: Trap, let me ask you a question. I don't believe
- 1:07:27Speaker 3: he's a cat rapper.
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: I think he's the realest. I don't think he's a
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: cat rapper either, but I don't believe what they trying
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: to say. The music is proven.
- 1:07:34Speaker 3: Yo, Trap, let me ask you a question.
- 1:07:36Speaker 4: You feel like you being from London and you being
- 1:07:41Speaker 4: a Caucasian man and being a pillar in the culture,
- 1:07:45Speaker 4: because everybody watches you, you do millions of views. Of course,
- 1:07:48Speaker 4: you being modest, it's not about the numbers. Well, we
- 1:07:51Speaker 4: all know what's about the numbers with YouTube, right? Because
- 1:07:54Speaker 4: if I see you got 10 million views, I'm going
- 1:07:56Speaker 4: to click on that.
- 1:07:57Speaker 3: If I see you got 5 million views, I'm going.
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: To click on that. Better believe it.
- 1:07:59Speaker 3: Do you feel like people give you more flack because
- 1:08:02Speaker 3: you put the work in and worked hard for what
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: you built with your empire? Do you feel like that?
- 1:08:09Speaker 2: I feel like maybe I think people make assumptions because
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: of the way I look or where I'm from. I
- 1:08:13Speaker 2: would say that, look, I understand. I appreciate it. I
- 1:08:16Speaker 2: don't pretend to be from the streets. I don't act
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: like I'm from Chicago or that I'm from... I don't know,
- 1:08:21Speaker 2: the Bronx or Compton or any of that stuff. I'm just,
- 1:08:24Speaker 2: I am what I am. I'm a nerd that grew
- 1:08:26Speaker 2: up listening to hip hop. My older brothers got me
- 1:08:28Speaker 2: into rap and I became obsessed with the genre. I
- 1:08:30Speaker 2: became obsessed with the stories, the persona and interested in,
- 1:08:34Speaker 2: you know, put a lot of my money into the
- 1:08:37Speaker 2: rap economy as a fan, as a consumer. And I
- 1:08:41Speaker 2: think that just like my work just reflects my Probably
- 1:08:44Speaker 2: unhealthy obsession with something that I'm super into. I'm into
- 1:08:48Speaker 2: movies too. I'm into gangster movies. I grew up watching
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: Goodfellas and The Sopranos, Scarface, all of that stuff. So
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: I was always interested. I grew up hearing stories of
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: the East End London gangsters and I damn near... you
- 1:09:00Speaker 2: know all types of people in England will be like
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: oh you remember the Kray twins I don't know if
- 1:09:03Speaker 2: you know them but they were like notorious London brother
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: gangsters there's been really good films about them but it's
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: like that just outlaws and that stuff just always interested
- 1:09:12Speaker 2: me so I think because this is what I've always
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: said I think the reason why I'm so popular is
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: because I think people look at me and go this
- 1:09:17Speaker 2: guy's not going to know anything about this stuff And
- 1:09:19Speaker 2: then when you actually listen to what I have to say,
- 1:09:21Speaker 2: they're like, oh, actually he doesn't know his stuff. He's
- 1:09:22Speaker 2: looked into this. He's got some knowledge.
- 1:09:24Speaker 4: Come on, you do your homework. You got people that
- 1:09:26Speaker 4: work for you. Shout out to your crew in here.
- 1:09:28Speaker 3: Shout out to my crew. So it's like, you got.
- 1:09:29Speaker 4: People that work for you, but I've seen you say
- 1:09:31Speaker 4: in the episode, he just be obsessed with something, Merc.
- 1:09:34Speaker 4: He does be obsessed with it. He'll stay up for
- 1:09:37Speaker 4: nights to do the story. I've seen him say that, like, yo, nah,
- 1:09:41Speaker 4: I stayed up for nights doing.
- 1:09:43Speaker 3: The dirt.
- 1:09:44Speaker 4: Coverage was amazing. Every day, something was dropping. Every day,
- 1:09:48Speaker 4: I watched the whole.
- 1:09:49Speaker 3: I felt like I was in the courtroom when he
- 1:09:52Speaker 3: was reporting. He's obsessed.
- 1:09:54Speaker 4: He doesn't just do it for the money. I agree
- 1:09:57Speaker 4: with that because even I'm waiting for you to cover
- 1:10:00Speaker 4: the next wing of the trials.
- 1:10:02Speaker 3: I'm waiting for you to see what you do with that.
- 1:10:04Speaker 3: I was watching that every day.
- 1:10:05Speaker 2: No, I appreciate that, man. But I mean, okay, the
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: King Von thing, for example, right? Like, I remember when
- 1:10:09Speaker 2: I made that video and that was probably the last
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: video I made before I built my team.
- 1:10:13Speaker 3: Serial Killer?
- 1:10:14Speaker 2: The Serial Killer one.
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 1:10:15Speaker 2: So I did that. I would say it was two
- 1:10:18Speaker 2: months straight. Every night, morning to night, nothing but King
- 1:10:21Speaker 2: Von research. I don't think... It's going to sound weird,
- 1:10:24Speaker 2: but I don't think there's anything that King Von did
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: that I didn't see. Like every IG live, I read
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: every single tweet. I went through and read every single
- 1:10:30Speaker 2: tweet to the point where you can break Twitter. Like
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: there's certain ways, if you don't scroll the right way,
- 1:10:36Speaker 2: like Twitter, you lose tweets. So I went through every past,
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: like every section of Twitter. Like this is, you don't
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: think this is weird, but like during the Dirk trial,
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: they were trying to show all the slide for Von tweets.
- 1:10:46Speaker 2: And they said, oh, Twitter doesn't actually let you go
- 1:10:48Speaker 2: any further past this many tweets. There's 24 pages of
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: slide for Von tweets. And I remember they said, I
- 1:10:54Speaker 2: was thinking I could have, I know how to get
- 1:10:55Speaker 2: past that and get all the tweets. Cause there's ways
- 1:10:57Speaker 2: of getting all of the tweets.
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: Leave it up to the internet detective.
- 1:11:00Speaker 2: No, but that's what I mean. That's like, even the feds,
- 1:11:02Speaker 2: the feds didn't know how to do that.
- 1:11:03Speaker 3: So I could have, I could have showed them that,
- 1:11:04Speaker 3: but like.
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: He said, I could have showed the feds how to
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: do that.
- 1:11:07Speaker 2: The Twitter advanced search function. You got to know how
- 1:11:10Speaker 2: to get your way around it. But I read every
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: tweet King Von ever did. And you know, I was
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: up every single day, morning till night. I was comparing
- 1:11:15Speaker 2: the Chicago Tribune articles and the Times. And the times
- 1:11:18Speaker 2: that it said that the murder had taken place with
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: the times King Von's tweets were, you know, deconstructed the
- 1:11:24Speaker 2: tweets that were in universal standard time to Chicago time
- 1:11:26Speaker 2: to match them up. I listened to every single song,
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: every unreleased, every IG live, anything that every interview anyone
- 1:11:32Speaker 2: had ever done about the guy over two months, just
- 1:11:34Speaker 2: me personally on my own, putting that together. And I don't,
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: I think people, they kind of do me dirty. It's like, oh,
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: you're just obsessed. You're just this weird guy making money
- 1:11:42Speaker 2: off of this. But it's like, really, it's actually like, bro, I,
- 1:11:45Speaker 2: I didn't know that was going to be such a
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: big deal. I remember I was like a month and
- 1:11:48Speaker 2: six weeks in thinking like, bro, is anyone even going
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: to care about this? At that time, you know, it
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: was two years after King Von had passed away. He
- 1:11:53Speaker 2: was a big artist, but it was like, it wasn't
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: like King. It wasn't like Lil Durk's at the top
- 1:11:58Speaker 2: of your timeline right now. You're always saying something about
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: Lil Durk. It was, I was like, I don't even
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: know if people are interested in this, but I'm interested
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: in this. So I'm going to make this. And there's
- 1:12:05Speaker 2: a lot of videos I've done that I feel like
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: they're not trending topics.
- 1:12:09Speaker 3: I mean, it's funny, right?
- 1:12:11Speaker 2: Because I did a hour and a half documentary on
- 1:12:13Speaker 2: Sammy the Bull. like two months before the Dirk trial.
- 1:12:16Speaker 2: And it was super random. People were like, why the
- 1:12:18Speaker 2: hell are you doing this? But it's like, I'm interested
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: in the mob too. I'm interested in the mafia. Then
- 1:12:22Speaker 2: when everyone starts calling OTF Jam, Jammy the Bull, I'm like, hey,
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: if you want to know Sammy the Bull, I actually
- 1:12:27Speaker 2: did something on him a few months ago because I'm
- 1:12:29Speaker 2: genuinely interested.
- 1:12:30Speaker 3: I've wanted to do that for months. That's what they
- 1:12:32Speaker 3: were saying.
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't come up with that.
- 1:12:34Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember that.
- 1:12:35Speaker 2: But like, yeah, just in answer to your question, I
- 1:12:38Speaker 2: think maybe just because I'm English, because I'm white and
- 1:12:41Speaker 2: I don't look like I'm from the hip hop culture,
- 1:12:44Speaker 2: but I don't claim to be, I don't claim to
- 1:12:45Speaker 2: be from Chicago, Oblock.
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: I'm not. You're like the overseas Vlad.
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: He's not from Oblock.
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: You're like the overseas Vlad, but y'all come at it
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: a little different. That's what they're saying. I see people like,
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: he's like Vlad a little bit, man.
- 1:12:55Speaker 3: But I look up to Vlad. I know a lot
- 1:12:57Speaker 3: of people don't like Vlad. Vlad is my guy.
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: Vlad, Vlad family.
- 1:12:59Speaker 3: Thank you, Vlad, for getting Traplos Ross on the show.
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: Vlad is the family of the show.
- 1:13:03Speaker 3: He paved the way, man.
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: Facts, facts. He paved the way.
- 1:13:05Speaker 2: But you know what I think is great as well, though?
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: I think sometimes it's like, I think the racial thing
- 1:13:10Speaker 2: is difficult because it's obviously, look, a white guy in
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: hip hop, whether it's Eminem had a hard time when
- 1:13:15Speaker 2: he was coming out, but he was really good at
- 1:13:17Speaker 2: what he did. He worked super hard making them songs,
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: coming up with those rhyme schemes that you ain't never
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: heard before. He outworked the preconceptions.
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: Shout out to Eminem.
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: I'm not saying I'm anything on Eminem, but it's like,
- 1:13:27Speaker 2: I just try and just do the best work that
- 1:13:29Speaker 2: I can. And I hope that that speaks for itself.
- 1:13:31Speaker 2: But at the same time, a lot of people say like, oh,
- 1:13:32Speaker 2: you're a white guy in hip hop. But like, there's
- 1:13:34Speaker 2: so many great black hip hop media people broadcasters that
- 1:13:38Speaker 2: have just done amazing things over the years you know
- 1:13:40Speaker 2: number one guy is academic so i feel like there
- 1:13:41Speaker 2: is space for some people of different backgrounds different countries
- 1:13:44Speaker 2: there's not too many uk guys doing this either so
- 1:13:47Speaker 2: i'm blessed to have made it this far in this
- 1:13:49Speaker 2: game but like you know i just feel.
- 1:13:51Speaker 4: Like overseas embrace hip-hop like a little a little more
- 1:13:54Speaker 4: than the u.s because like you'll go overseas like there's
- 1:13:57Speaker 4: a guy that's been to How many shows murdered? Probably
- 1:14:01Speaker 4: 155 G-Unit shows. There's not one show he doesn't miss overseas.
- 1:14:06Speaker 4: If we're in Germany, we're in London, we're in Paris,
- 1:14:10Speaker 4: he's been to 155 shows. I met guys like in
- 1:14:13Speaker 4: Germany or London, and they know more hip hop than
- 1:14:17Speaker 4: somebody in New York City. They can know about Melly
- 1:14:19Speaker 4: Mel and the Fat Boys, and you'll see J. Ruda
- 1:14:23Speaker 4: Damage is still doing shows out there and KRS-One. So
- 1:14:26Speaker 4: it's like, when I meet guys like you, it's just
- 1:14:28Speaker 4: another day at the office because we meet guys like
- 1:14:30Speaker 4: you overseas all the time.
- 1:14:32Speaker 3: That are addicted to hip hop. It doesn't matter what color.
- 1:14:37Speaker 3: or race you are.
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: I feel like, yes. They know everything.
- 1:14:39Speaker 3: You're right. You're definitely right. Music breaks every kind of barrier.
- 1:14:45Speaker 4: And I respect what you do because you remind me
- 1:14:47Speaker 4: of those guys that I've met going to London and
- 1:14:50Speaker 4: they're diehard G-Unit fans.
- 1:14:51Speaker 3: They got the wife's beater on. They're out there all day.
- 1:14:54Speaker 3: They're waiting for us. They know when the jet is landing.
- 1:14:57Speaker 1: But they don't want us to go to jail neither. See,
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: they ain't playing that shit, Trapp. Them guys he talking about,
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: they not playing that. Yeah, you know, they are not playing.
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: They think they're going to try to break us out.
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: They not playing, Trapp.
- 1:15:09Speaker 4: I think with Trapp, what he's saying is he's thinking
- 1:15:12Speaker 4: about little pop family and he's thinking about dirt. So
- 1:15:15Speaker 4: he's just giving the facts and everybody's not going to
- 1:15:18Speaker 4: like the way he relies.
- 1:15:20Speaker 3: He's not picking the sides.
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: Know what I'm saying?
- 1:15:22Speaker 4: So it's like he's thinking about this guy's family and
- 1:15:25Speaker 4: his mother's loss because he's in court and see the
- 1:15:27Speaker 4: mother crying and he's thinking about you know, Dirk was
- 1:15:31Speaker 4: going on with Trout. Because he had his good days
- 1:15:33Speaker 4: with Dirk and his bad days. What do you think
- 1:15:35Speaker 4: about Q50 though? Because it's like this whole Q50 thing,
- 1:15:38Speaker 4: rest in peace to Q50.
- 1:15:39Speaker 3: You know, they got Tesla videos. He shouldn't have been
- 1:15:41Speaker 3: in Tesla. What do you have to store? Without the blick,
- 1:15:44Speaker 3: he's slipping. Like, I like Q50' s music. Do you think
- 1:15:47Speaker 3: Vert is going to be able to hold a torch
- 1:15:49Speaker 3: for Bloodhound? Is Bloodhound over?
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: Like, what do you think?
- 1:15:52Speaker 2: Man, I know Murda's not going to like this next part, man,
- 1:15:54Speaker 2: but Q50 was saying.
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: In his songs- No, why are you saying I'm not
- 1:15:57Speaker 1: going to like this next part?
- 1:15:59Speaker 2: Because Q50 was rapping in his songs. He said, damn, 50,
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: is he really up eight hats? Hats is Murda.
- 1:16:04Speaker 3: We know that. Of course we know that.
- 1:16:05Speaker 2: So he's, damn, is he really up eight hats? I
- 1:16:07Speaker 2: would have been up 10, but two of them ain't check.
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: So he was saying he had eight hats, he had
- 1:16:13Speaker 2: eight Murda's. It was very creepy for me because I
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: did a two-hour video on Q50 and It was two
- 1:16:19Speaker 2: years to the day.
- 1:16:20Speaker 3: Before he passed away.
- 1:16:21Speaker 2: It was kind of, you know, when you just look
- 1:16:24Speaker 2: at something, you think that's so weird, like coincidence. But
- 1:16:26Speaker 2: I did that video about Q50' s eight alleged hats. I
- 1:16:30Speaker 2: don't think he was a cap rapper.
- 1:16:31Speaker 3: I believed him. I didn't find all of them, but
- 1:16:33Speaker 3: I found a lot of them.
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: How many rappers talk about doing things in their music?
- 1:16:37Speaker 2: Yeah, but how many of them can you find that
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: shit and it lines up?
- 1:16:39Speaker 3: Like, that's the thing.
- 1:16:40Speaker 2: Not many of them you can find it and it
- 1:16:41Speaker 2: lines up. Q50 got lyrics where he talking about like, oh,
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: my parents, My first hit was a special one. And
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: the rumor has it, I think he's got a lyric
- 1:16:49Speaker 2: where he talks about my first hit was a three-four.
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: Rumor.
- 1:16:52Speaker 3: No, no, that's what I'm saying.
- 1:16:54Speaker 2: But like, you know, the rumor is he's got this
- 1:16:57Speaker 2: line where he says, I'm in the mill doing hits
- 1:16:58Speaker 2: for Pape and all this stuff. And so rumor is
- 1:17:01Speaker 2: he was working as a hitman in Milwaukee and they
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: did a hit where they ran up in there.
- 1:17:05Speaker 3: Him and Lil Jeff and another guy.
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: People will believe anything, man.
- 1:17:08Speaker 2: But then you find the news report. But then you
- 1:17:10Speaker 2: find the news report and someone ran up in a
- 1:17:12Speaker 2: trap house and killed three people and they all got killed.
- 1:17:15Speaker 2: And it was like, they were supposed to kill this
- 1:17:16Speaker 2: one guy. They ended up killing everybody and like doing
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: this crazy hit. And he's rapping about, I'm in Milwaukee
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: doing hits for money. I believe him when he said
- 1:17:24Speaker 2: he had eight hats. When they talk about two of
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: them didn't check, you know, there was a guy that
- 1:17:27Speaker 2: allegedly the bloodhound shot. And then the guy was on
- 1:17:29Speaker 2: life support for like a year. And then they was
- 1:17:31Speaker 2: pretending the guy was outside posting. People was posting, pretending
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: to be him. And then like Q50 making fun of
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: him and telling him to unplug him and all this
- 1:17:40Speaker 2: kind of stuff. Like, allegedly Q50 was putting that stuff
- 1:17:44Speaker 2: out there do you know Q50 rapped about me.
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: Yeah Trap be excited about this I can tell you
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: know Q50 rapped about me what he said about.
- 1:17:51Speaker 2: You Trap he's got a lyric and you know his
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: ops is called Trap City so like the Bloodhounds branched
- 1:17:56Speaker 2: off from this crew called Drill City and Drill City
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: and Trap City is like don't get along he's got
- 1:18:01Speaker 2: this lyric after I dropped the documentary about him he
- 1:18:03Speaker 2: dropped a lyric he said Trap Lore reminds me of
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: Trap City speaking on bodies they know I get busy
- 1:18:09Speaker 2: so he low-key kind of confirmed he.
- 1:18:11Speaker 3: Said it You felt good about that.
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: How you felt when you.
- 1:18:14Speaker 3: Heard your name on that record?
- 1:18:15Speaker 2: I was just like, damn, that's crazy. Like he really
- 1:18:17Speaker 2: giving me the acknowledgement. He didn't say Trap Lord reminds
- 1:18:20Speaker 2: me of Capsy. He said they remind me of Trap City.
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: He said they know I get busy. He said not
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: Caps City, Trap City. You know what I mean?
- 1:18:29Speaker 2: But like, the thing is, I feel like Q50 though,
- 1:18:33Speaker 2: same with Von, like realistically, Q50 wanted everyone to think
- 1:18:36Speaker 2: he had all them bodies. When he's saying, yeah, they
- 1:18:37Speaker 2: know I get busy. Q50, like, I think that documentary
- 1:18:39Speaker 2: probably dropped Q50. Like, yeah, like, you know what's up. Like,
- 1:18:42Speaker 2: That was good marketing for Q50. I'm not saying I'm
- 1:18:45Speaker 2: responsible for Q50 success, but that was just one of
- 1:18:47Speaker 2: the small things where it was like everybody was like
- 1:18:50Speaker 2: yo q50 is this guy like everyone loves him i
- 1:18:52Speaker 2: don't know if you guys remember it or how closely
- 1:18:55Speaker 2: you followed q50 but there was rumors that he died
- 1:18:57Speaker 2: like a year before where there was a shooting in
- 1:18:59Speaker 2: st louis.
- 1:19:00Speaker 3: Oh yeah q50 yeah the car got shot up he.
- 1:19:01Speaker 2: Ran off they say he ran off with 60k and
- 1:19:03Speaker 2: they tried to kill.
- 1:19:04Speaker 3: Him he rapped about it yeah i heard about.
- 1:19:06Speaker 2: It and so it's like.
- 1:19:10Speaker 3: You know, he was- What's that killer white boy rapper
- 1:19:13Speaker 3: that he had beef with? Oh, CTS Lil Wick. Yeah,
- 1:19:15Speaker 3: he's crazy. Lil Wick. Yeah, he's hard as well. And
- 1:19:17Speaker 3: he beat- St. Louis ain't no game. It's like Chicago.
- 1:19:20Speaker 3: It's not a game out there.
- 1:19:21Speaker 2: I did like a three hour documentary about the St.
- 1:19:23Speaker 2: Louis gang wars.
- 1:19:24Speaker 3: Yeah, it's crazy. And that's, it's crazy.
- 1:19:26Speaker 2: Like the guns that they got out there is just
- 1:19:29Speaker 2: a whole different level. They're just in the streets with them.
- 1:19:31Speaker 2: They're just carrying everything openly. Just having wild shootouts on
- 1:19:34Speaker 2: IG Live, you know, but- Q50 was going to different
- 1:19:38Speaker 2: cities and getting into it with gangsters from St.
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: Louis.
- 1:19:40Speaker 2: I mean, he was a loose cannon. I think he
- 1:19:42Speaker 2: liked that reputation. And unfortunately, it's really weird for me
- 1:19:47Speaker 2: because seeing that footage of him, he's out on his
- 1:19:50Speaker 2: own in this Tesla. He ends up getting shot. Six
- 1:19:52Speaker 2: guys will jump out on him. But you think, bro,
- 1:19:54Speaker 2: you was running around talking about you got eight hats.
- 1:19:55Speaker 2: How are you in Chicago? Apparently, this is a notorious
- 1:19:58Speaker 2: gas station. in a hood that everybody knows is really dangerous,
- 1:20:02Speaker 2: really treacherous.
- 1:20:03Speaker 3: Like he was out there all day. I heard they
- 1:20:04Speaker 3: had history for violence over there.
- 1:20:05Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. It's associated with this group.
- 1:20:08Speaker 3: You think Vert is good enough to hold a Bloodhound torch?
- 1:20:11Speaker 3: Or you don't know?
- 1:20:12Speaker 2: Man, I like Vert. I like Vert, but I feel
- 1:20:14Speaker 2: like I can't imagine the pain he's going through. He's
- 1:20:16Speaker 2: lost so many friends.
- 1:20:17Speaker 3: He lost because Vert, because Bloodhound. What's the other guy
- 1:20:22Speaker 3: that died? Lil Skoom. Lil Skoom and Jeff Q and Q50. Yeah.
- 1:20:27Speaker 3: Vert's the only one left.
- 1:20:28Speaker 2: I like that i think vert's music's great you know
- 1:20:30Speaker 2: me and vert had a little back and forth a
- 1:20:31Speaker 2: few years ago um who you yeah me and vert
- 1:20:33Speaker 2: had a little back and forth what happened i can't
- 1:20:35Speaker 2: remember he was telling me that i i think it
- 1:20:37Speaker 2: was something where uh he was saying he was he
- 1:20:40Speaker 2: was saying i owed him money for something or like
- 1:20:42Speaker 2: for using his name i owed him money i'm a
- 1:20:43Speaker 2: people money trap and then i said and then i
- 1:20:45Speaker 2: said for using his name and then i said how
- 1:20:48Speaker 2: about i donate the money to like a charity of
- 1:20:50Speaker 2: your choice and then i think he said he was
- 1:20:51Speaker 2: gonna fight me and then we squashed it or something
- 1:20:53Speaker 2: like oh he was trolling me and then we ended
- 1:20:55Speaker 2: up being cool in the dms but um I feel
- 1:20:58Speaker 2: like Vert is good. I think he's really talented, but
- 1:21:00Speaker 2: I completely understand. I know the rumor was he got
- 1:21:03Speaker 2: shot earlier this year and he was recovering from that.
- 1:21:06Speaker 2: So he kind of been out of the way and offline,
- 1:21:08Speaker 2: but from what I'm hearing, he's good. I just hope
- 1:21:10Speaker 2: that he can just get back on the music, focus
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: on the music, stay away from the streets and everything
- 1:21:15Speaker 2: that's going on.
- 1:21:15Speaker 3: I mean, right now, Chicago is a bad place. Do
- 1:21:17Speaker 3: you think the best thing is for Chicago artists just
- 1:21:18Speaker 3: to move out of Chicago like Chief Keef? A thousand percent.
- 1:21:20Speaker 3: Shout out to Chief Keef. I feel like it was
- 1:21:22Speaker 3: a smart move. Move out of Chicago and make millions.
- 1:21:25Speaker 2: I think Chief Keef.
- 1:21:27Speaker 2: Is like one of the best Chicago role models. And
- 1:21:30Speaker 2: that's why I think, okay, we keep getting back to it,
- 1:21:32Speaker 2: but like, that's why I always felt like Lil Durk,
- 1:21:35Speaker 2: when he caught that case, I felt like it was
- 1:21:37Speaker 2: disappointing as a fan to see how far he had
- 1:21:39Speaker 2: come and then to see him essentially get caught up
- 1:21:42Speaker 2: in this, you know, spiral of negativity.
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: That's, once again, I'm trying to tell you, Trav, that's
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: from having them corny ass friends around him now. Jammy
- 1:21:54Speaker 1: the ball. You just said it, jam me the ball.
- 1:21:56Speaker 3: Try to jam him up.
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: I know what he said.
- 1:21:59Speaker 3: He's disappointed because you see the success of Chief Keef.
- 1:22:01Speaker 3: He's in Cali.
- 1:22:02Speaker 1: And you thought Dirk was about to follow up the
- 1:22:04Speaker 1: same way, kind of.
- 1:22:05Speaker 3: Look at Chief Keef.
- 1:22:05Speaker 4: Chief Keef got millions of dollars. He got Ferraris, Ferrari
- 1:22:09Speaker 4: trucks in the driveway, Hellcats, Trackhawks. He's living his life.
- 1:22:13Speaker 4: Fourth of July, he's blowing fireworks. His music's still selling.
- 1:22:17Speaker 4: People still love him. He's still touring, but he's still alive.
- 1:22:21Speaker 4: So it's like, for you to be an artist, he's
- 1:22:23Speaker 4: the role model to me too because he moved out
- 1:22:25Speaker 4: the hood and he's successful.
- 1:22:28Speaker 2: And to be fair though, let's be real, Chief Keef,
- 1:22:33Speaker 2: his team have had a lot of issues over the years.
- 1:22:35Speaker 2: It's not sweet for him in Chicago. He's got issues
- 1:22:37Speaker 2: with different groups.
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: Of course, of course.
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: Groups he used to be cool with, he has issues
- 1:22:40Speaker 2: with now. I think there's this misconception that because Chief
- 1:22:43Speaker 2: Keef made Oblock famous that he's beloved by Oblock, but
- 1:22:46Speaker 2: he had real static and friction with people like Vaughn
- 1:22:48Speaker 2: and You know, Keefe and Dirk don't really get along
- 1:22:50Speaker 2: like that. And I feel like, you know, Chief Keefe,
- 1:22:54Speaker 2: I think people underestimate how serious it is for him.
- 1:22:57Speaker 2: And the fact that he's still out here walking around,
- 1:22:59Speaker 2: moving around, he manages to navigate this stuff. He hasn't
- 1:23:01Speaker 2: gotten into any of that drama. He hasn't got a
- 1:23:02Speaker 2: big case. He hasn't been shot at. You know, there
- 1:23:05Speaker 2: was a viral clip going around recently of Chief Keefe's
- 1:23:08Speaker 2: team stopping at a gas station. And they move in
- 1:23:10Speaker 2: like the president, multiple ARs. They move in properly, efficiently.
- 1:23:14Speaker 2: He'd taken that money.
- 1:23:14Speaker 3: Did they buy three bulletproofs? They bought three bulletproofs to
- 1:23:17Speaker 3: move to Chicago.
- 1:23:18Speaker 2: Yeah, there was that clip of him. They was driving
- 1:23:20Speaker 2: down Front Street in the bulletproofs and like, you know,
- 1:23:23Speaker 2: he not scared to go back, but he knows. I
- 1:23:24Speaker 2: think it had been like 11 years until he went
- 1:23:27Speaker 2: back for that Summer Smash. And you know, he was
- 1:23:29Speaker 2: damn near banned from the city.
- 1:23:31Speaker 3: Yeah, but they invested in three BPs.
- 1:23:34Speaker 2: I think the thing where they said that he got
- 1:23:36Speaker 2: shot at, I think that was overstated. I think they
- 1:23:39Speaker 2: was at a gas station and then there was a
- 1:23:40Speaker 2: shooting nearby that you could hear, but I don't think
- 1:23:42Speaker 2: they shot at you. Obviously, there was a big fight
- 1:23:45Speaker 2: backstage at his show, but that was like an internal
- 1:23:47Speaker 2: beef between G Herbo's crew and, well, G Herbo's crew.
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: Allegedly.
- 1:23:53Speaker 2: Allegedly, there's some in-house friction going on and G Herbo
- 1:23:57Speaker 2: and Chief Keef are cool but then there's like people
- 1:23:59Speaker 2: on Chief Keef's team that were friends with G Herbo's friends,
- 1:24:03Speaker 2: and then they had a falling out. So there was
- 1:24:04Speaker 2: like a fist fight, but that was just.
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: A fist fight. Please fix it because the internet detective
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: will find out. Trust me, y'all.
- 1:24:09Speaker 2: I know too much about that one already.
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: I don't even want to know about that one. I
- 1:24:13Speaker 1: know too much already.
- 1:24:14Speaker 3: No, that one's crazy. That one's crazy.
- 1:24:15Speaker 2: But, you know, I think G Herbo as well, there's
- 1:24:18Speaker 2: a lot going on with G Herbo's team, but G Herbo,
- 1:24:21Speaker 2: I think it's done amazingly. You know, he had a
- 1:24:23Speaker 2: little fraud case that he ended up getting resolved, but
- 1:24:25Speaker 2: you don't hear about G Herbo putting hits on people.
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: He, Because he's not, man.
- 1:24:31Speaker 3: No, but that's what I'm saying. Exactly.
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: And neither is Dirk, Trapp. And neither is Dirk, Trapp.
- 1:24:36Speaker 3: And you know what?
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: Not guilty. Exactly.
- 1:24:39Speaker 3: Not guilty, Trapp.
- 1:24:41Speaker 4: I think people think he's obsessed with just doing Chicago, though.
- 1:24:44Speaker 4: But he's done New York City. He's done Fabio out
- 1:24:48Speaker 4: here in Brooklyn, Shelter, Brooklyn. He's done Sweden.
- 1:24:52Speaker 3: The gangster shit we've been hearing about Sweden went to Morocco.
- 1:24:55Speaker 4: He's done gang shit in London too, Merc. So I
- 1:24:59Speaker 4: think people just get confused. It's just Chicago shit, I
- 1:25:02Speaker 4: think sometimes it's just the most interesting to people. Because
- 1:25:05Speaker 4: I know I like watching anything on Chicago.
- 1:25:07Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
- 1:25:08Speaker 2: What fascinates me is I think as well, it's like,
- 1:25:11Speaker 2: obviously I'm interested in the drill culture that originated in Chicago.
- 1:25:14Speaker 2: Chicago started this, but it's spread all around the world.
- 1:25:16Speaker 2: Like you got these gangster rappers and drill rappers in Sweden,
- 1:25:19Speaker 2: they going back and forth and you know, pulling up
- 1:25:22Speaker 2: on each other on camera and dissing each other, people
- 1:25:24Speaker 2: getting shot up on, you know, all kinds of hits
- 1:25:28Speaker 2: been going on and people rapping about it and making
- 1:25:30Speaker 2: music about it. I mean, in the UK, it's like
- 1:25:33Speaker 2: everything that goes on in Chicago happens in the UK,
- 1:25:35Speaker 2: but you know, a lot of it's with knives. You know,
- 1:25:37Speaker 2: you've got guys that are pulling up on the mopeds
- 1:25:39Speaker 2: with knives, they're filming it, they're rapping about it, they're
- 1:25:41Speaker 2: dissing each other. There's like, you know, department stores, the
- 1:25:44Speaker 2: ops run into each other and all the knives come
- 1:25:46Speaker 2: out and they're Damn near sword fights on camera and stuff.
- 1:25:48Speaker 3: Nah, I was thinking machetes in London. Machetes, knives. We
- 1:25:51Speaker 3: have zombie knives.
- 1:25:52Speaker 2: You ever seen a zombie knife?
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen that.
- 1:25:54Speaker 3: With the serrated edges.
- 1:25:56Speaker 2: They call it a zombie killer knife, like a ZK knife.
- 1:25:58Speaker 3: Dude's really out here running around with those. You definitely
- 1:25:59Speaker 3: got to be careful in London. It's not a joke, man.
- 1:26:02Speaker 1: But before we get out of here, Chap, I want
- 1:26:03Speaker 1: the people to know that you want Dirk to come home, correct?
- 1:26:07Speaker 2: Do I want Dirk to come home?
- 1:26:08Speaker 3: I don't care.
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: I really don't care. Do you want him to come home,
- 1:26:11Speaker 1: yes or no?
- 1:26:12Speaker 2: I wanna see him resolve the last two charges that
- 1:26:15Speaker 2: he's got and whatever the result is, I respect it.
- 1:26:17Speaker 1: But do you want him as a fan of Lil
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: Durk music?
- 1:26:19Speaker 3: Yeah, he said resolve it. You want him to resolve it.
- 1:26:22Speaker 1: It's a difference. No, you gotta let him answer that.
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: It's a difference. Do you wanna see Durk come home?
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: Yes or no?
- 1:26:28Speaker 2: Well, everyone keeps telling me not to be biased and
- 1:26:30Speaker 2: to be impartial. So if I say, that's why you
- 1:26:32Speaker 2: don't see me in no free Durk shirt.
- 1:26:33Speaker 3: It was ironic.
- 1:26:34Speaker 2: Everyone's saying you biased.
- 1:26:35Speaker 1: We saw Doody Lowe out there with the free Dirk shirt.
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: You ain't buying nothing from him?
- 1:26:39Speaker 2: That's the most biased thing, wearing a free Dirk shirt.
- 1:26:41Speaker 2: You know people came in on the first day of
- 1:26:43Speaker 2: court and gave out free Dirk pamphlets in the court
- 1:26:45Speaker 2: and the judge said, knock it off. If that happens again,
- 1:26:46Speaker 2: you're out of this courtroom. You can't be in the
- 1:26:48Speaker 2: courtroom talking about free Dirk.
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: Do you want Dirk to come home? Yes or no, Tramp? Yes.
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: But we can't answer for him. You got to let
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: the man in. Do you want him to come home?
- 1:26:57Speaker 1: Yes or no?
- 1:26:58Speaker 3: Trap? Yes.
- 1:26:59Speaker 2: I just feel like I just want to see what happens.
- 1:27:01Speaker 2: I just want to know the result. I don't care
- 1:27:02Speaker 2: either way. I don't want him to go to jail.
- 1:27:04Speaker 2: I don't want him to come home. I want these
- 1:27:06Speaker 2: charges to be litigated. I want him to have a
- 1:27:08Speaker 2: fair trial. I want him to get to the bottom
- 1:27:10Speaker 2: of this situation. I want to know what happened. I
- 1:27:12Speaker 2: want to see all the evidence and I respect whatever
- 1:27:14Speaker 2: the result is. Just like I'm not on here talking about, oh,
- 1:27:17Speaker 2: he definitely did it.
- 1:27:18Speaker 3: It's all capped.
- 1:27:19Speaker 2: The jury got paid. I respect the result. He's found
- 1:27:21Speaker 2: not guilty of those charges. They did not prove beyond
- 1:27:23Speaker 2: a reasonable doubt that he did a murder for hire.
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: That's right, because he didn't.
- 1:27:27Speaker 3: Are you now for the second?
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: You want him to come home? Yes.
- 1:27:30Speaker 2: If he gets found not guilty on the remaining two charges, yeah,
- 1:27:33Speaker 2: I would want him to come home.
- 1:27:34Speaker 3: I would think it'd be wrong. Thank you.
- 1:27:35Speaker 1: Yes, yes. That's all we want from you, Chad. Even
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: though he didn't say that shit the right way, but still.
- 1:27:40Speaker 3: Traplo, can I ask you when the new trial's starting,
- 1:27:43Speaker 3: the Speedy trial?
- 1:27:47Speaker 2: It's currently scheduled for October 5th. A lot of people
- 1:27:50Speaker 2: are saying that there's a rumor going around that it's
- 1:27:52Speaker 2: going to be delayed, but there hasn't been an official
- 1:27:55Speaker 2: announcement yet.
- 1:27:55Speaker 3: Are you going to be on the scene? Are we
- 1:27:57Speaker 3: going to watch some new footage of you there for
- 1:27:59Speaker 3: the next two weeks?
- 1:28:00Speaker 2: I would like to be. I'm going to try to be.
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: Every day?
- 1:28:02Speaker 2: I would like to be.
- 1:28:03Speaker 3: I would like to be. You know what I'm saying?
- 1:28:05Speaker 2: I don't want to give away my movements too much.
- 1:28:07Speaker 1: It's all good.
- 1:28:09Speaker 3: I might be. I would like to.
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: I think because I'm so committed, invested in this case,
- 1:28:13Speaker 2: I'd like to see it through to its end. Will
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: you say you want to see Didi come home?
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: D.D.? Yeah. You don't even know who that is? Yeah,
- 1:28:20Speaker 1: you know, I don't be caught up in that shit
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: like that.
- 1:28:22Speaker 4: Nah?
- 1:28:23Speaker 3: You don't want to see D.D.
- 1:28:23Speaker 1: Come home? D.D. with the hood?
- 1:28:24Speaker 2: Who was found guilty of the stalking resulting in death
- 1:28:27Speaker 2: with a machine gun of Lil Pap.
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: They found him guilty? Yeah. That's crazy. We got a...
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: Murder only care about dirt.
- 1:28:33Speaker 3: He don't care about... Would you want, like, justice for
- 1:28:35Speaker 3: Lil Pap?
- 1:28:37Speaker 1: Justice for Lil Pap?
- 1:28:38Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: Of course we don't. We don't want to see none
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: of this shit happen, right? But the problem be deeper
- 1:28:44Speaker 1: than just these rappers that you talk about. We got
- 1:28:46Speaker 1: to get to... Why are we even in these situations
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: in the first place? Because of how our environments is altered.
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: It's a whole big story we could get into, but
- 1:28:54Speaker 1: it's bigger than the rappers trap. It's just these situations
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: that we unfortunately is put in.
- 1:28:58Speaker 3: Well, Pap was innocent. He was innocent.
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: For me? No, I know that. I'm talking about even
- 1:29:01Speaker 1: the Dierks and them. It's the situations, environments that we
- 1:29:04Speaker 1: grew up in. It made it hard for us. You
- 1:29:06Speaker 1: know what's a little easy for you? You know why?
- 1:29:08Speaker 1: You got the complexion for the connection, man. It's easy
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: for you, brother. It's a little easy for you, brother.
- 1:29:13Speaker 3: I got to ask one more question though.
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: Go ahead. Go ahead.
- 1:29:16Speaker 2: At what point... At what point does somebody get famous enough,
- 1:29:21Speaker 2: successful enough, removed enough from the situation to say, you
- 1:29:24Speaker 2: now crashing out, you throwing it all away, you a dummy?
- 1:29:27Speaker 2: If somebody is rich enough, successful enough, if Elon Musk
- 1:29:30Speaker 2: put a hit on someone, I'm not talking about Dirk,
- 1:29:31Speaker 2: but I'm talking theoretically.
- 1:29:32Speaker 3: Is there not a level?
- 1:29:33Speaker 2: If 50 gets arrested for murder for hire next week,
- 1:29:36Speaker 2: you got to be thinking, bro, that's disappointing, bro. I
- 1:29:37Speaker 2: thought you was on another level, 50.
- 1:29:39Speaker 1: Of course, if 50 want to do no dumb shit
- 1:29:41Speaker 1: like that, just like Dirk can't do no dumb shit
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: like that, that's how he was found not guilty of
- 1:29:46Speaker 1: them shit, and that's how he's going to be found
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: not guilty when them other charges get popped up in
- 1:29:50Speaker 1: the case start, man.
- 1:29:51Speaker 3: You know what it is, too? That's fair, that's fair.
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. Thank you, man.
- 1:29:54Speaker 3: This is what you got to understand, Trap Law.
- 1:29:57Speaker 4: These artists are making way more money now with streams
- 1:30:00Speaker 4: and shows and everything. And a lot of them, once
- 1:30:03Speaker 4: these guys make their first million or two, they're making
- 1:30:07Speaker 4: it like it's nothing.
- 1:30:09Speaker 3: They don't want to hear what they big homie got
- 1:30:10Speaker 3: to say. You know what I'm saying? They the boss.
- 1:30:13Speaker 3: You understand what I'm saying?
- 1:30:14Speaker 4: We was fortunate enough to have somebody like 50 that
- 1:30:18Speaker 4: was young but was ahead of his time because he
- 1:30:20Speaker 4: was outside early.
- 1:30:21Speaker 3: And he knew, oh, yo, shit, this shit right here
- 1:30:24Speaker 3: going to make you hot. Or, yo, watch your friends.
- 1:30:27Speaker 3: Because Fifth told Dirk that before. Like, yo, watch your friends.
- 1:30:31Speaker 3: That's when Jewel, he gave Dirk. You know what I'm saying?
- 1:30:34Speaker 3: He'll tell me that. Yo, watch your friends. Give me
- 1:30:36Speaker 3: a watch, yo, they'll kill you for that watch. Like,
- 1:30:38Speaker 3: always making you think.
- 1:30:40Speaker 4: Now, nobody really has a big homie because they the
- 1:30:43Speaker 4: big homie and these guys are still young.
- 1:30:45Speaker 1: They're young, 25.
- 1:30:45Speaker 3: Imagine being 23 years old, making 18 years. Rob Markman, Jr.
- 1:30:48Speaker 1: Because they got the money, so the money making them
- 1:30:50Speaker 1: the big homie now.
- 1:30:51Speaker 4: So that's why- Rob Markman, Jr.: I know what you're
- 1:30:52Speaker 4: saying about Dirk. He's a black man, he's young with money.
- 1:30:56Speaker 4: He's showing millions, cash. So people, the system going to
- 1:31:00Speaker 4: look at him as guilty anyway. That's why he got
- 1:31:02Speaker 4: to pay Drew Finlan and these guys. Up to 100,000 now.
- 1:31:06Speaker 1: Dream Team.
- 1:31:07Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
- 1:31:07Speaker 1: Shout to them. Dream Team. One thing about them, they're
- 1:31:10Speaker 1: going to get the truth. Yeah.
- 1:31:13Speaker 3: No, they killed it. It's true. Shout out to Drew.
- 1:31:15Speaker 3: Me and Drew are cool, man. Drew should love Drew
- 1:31:18Speaker 3: in his contact. We don't know if Trap Lord is
- 1:31:21Speaker 3: going to be at the trial. He might not.
