• 2:44
  Speaker 4: It was perfect, you know what I'm saying, and it
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: matches everything you know from my story and everything, so
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: it's perfect fit. That's I looked at it.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Was there anything that you had to take out? You
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: know we've been reading, you know a lot of our
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: OG's in this game. I've been writing books from Gez
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: to fat Jo or the recent ones. Was anything that
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: you had to take out because you were so brutally
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: honest in this book?
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a few things. Man, it's I'm not gonna
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: say no names, but it was some some you know,
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: I had some people coming to me about killing themself
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: in the book. It's more than likely like three or
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: four people I had put in the book, and then
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: when they read it, it was like, you know, like
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: the lawyers and stuff like, man, you can't put all
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: this stuff in it. And then I talked to some
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: of the people and they didn't want me to do that,
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: so I took it out.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: And you never tried cocaine, No, contrary to popular belief.
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: You know, you never tried cocaine. But you talk about
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: why in the book. Can you touch on that a
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: little bit?
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I was when I was like a kid, I
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: was watching TV and I've seen this basketball player named
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: Lynn Byats that's right. And they said, oh, Lint Bias,
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: he died on cocaine. And I was like, looking at you,
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: like cocaine. I just you know, I didn't know what
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: it was. I was like cocaine. I was like, I
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: ain't never doing cocaine. Like when I seen that, that's
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: stuck in my head. I said, if I feel I
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: just felt like if I did it, I die. And
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: then like soon as right after that, I you know,
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: I would think I could have been I don't know,
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: I could have been thirteen fourteen, And this is the
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: older I got, you know, I started getting approached and myth.
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: It's like I would see people in the street. They'd
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: be like, hey, may want some coke, want this one that?
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: And I was like, first thing came to my mind,
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: like that's that stuff that Lin Bias took. I said,
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: hell no, I ain't taking that ship no matter what
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: ware coming. Yeah, fuck that.
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: And you always seem to have like a sense of
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: self awareness about yourself that other people around you didn't
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: seem to have.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: How is that self awareness helped are hurt you in life?
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: Uh? You said, help all hurt?
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, helped all hurt I don't really.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: Think it hurt me. It may I think it kept
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: me to survive. I survived off that I would have.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: It's weird. I would have these two voices in my head.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: I had one voice be like, hey, hey, hey do
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: this do that smashed that without the rubb or whatever.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: And then I have another voice be like, man, no,
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: like you know what I'm saying. You know what happened easy,
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: you know. I'm like I had like real shit. I
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: had these voices in my head telling me like one
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: one is telling me to go, one is telling me, nah,
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: you might don't want to do that because you know
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: this girl might be this, you might get it pregnant
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: then and child support and all, you know, just all
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: kind of crazy shit even just whatever, not just saying
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: just with females, just with it in the street stuff.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: You know. It's times I you know, I talk about
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: it in the book. I had to strap about to
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: blow somebody ass. Then like one minute, something's telling me
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: the gold and something's like, nah, I man, you might
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: don't want to do that because this person, you know,
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: he might snitch on you. Can you trust this nigga
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: you with? You know what I'm saying, so stuff like that, man,
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: And it's good that that happened like that because I'm
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: here today.
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: Because the reason I say the self awareness hurt is
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: because sometimes you might be too critical on yourself.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: I see that throughout the book, like yeah, whether it's about.
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: Oh three six music is whack, And I'm like, I
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: don't remember that time, like you know what I mean,
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: like just stuff like that, like you might have been
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: a little too hard on yourself.
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: Well, I'm very hard on myself, you know, right, I'm
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: very hard on myself. I didn't say it was whack.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: I don't think. I think I said that it didn't
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: sound right at the time when we was in LA
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: because we was lost in it, you know, we was
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: lost in the sauce. We didn't. I mean, I felt
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: like when I was in LA for so long, I
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: just you know, I lost my taste of sound and
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: music and what the what the wave was and everything.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. I'm usually on top of
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: that and never never fell off of that. But when
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: I was in La party and kicking and drinking so
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: much and popping peels, I lost it all. You know,
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: I'm doing music that was I was stuck you know
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: what I mean. You know, like some people move forward.
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: I was I was stuck in like two thousand and
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: five somewhere are two thousand and three. You know what
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: I'm saying. I was stuck in that era. And then
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: when it was two thousand and eight, music was totally different.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: What got you what you got? What you got you
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: out of that that slump.
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: I got the hell out of LA and I moved
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: back to Mives, you know what I'm saying. Like immediately
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: I sold my house like I wasna getting fuck out

• 12:16
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying in North Memphis, I wouldn't
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: be where I am today. No facts I was gonna ask.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: You know, there was one time they used to say
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: that that the music that you guys put out was the.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Monic and that was like that the thing. How bad
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: did that affect y'all.
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: Man to me the musical, I mean, I'm a church nigga, man,
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: So I mean I looked at the ship like, you know, like,
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: y'all nigga ain't no devilation. You ain't nobody fucking you
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, worship no devil touching a Weiji
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: board or whatever fuck y'all think it is. Nah, I
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: just looked at it like, hey, man, it is what
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: it is. But we I felt like we had to
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: clean the name up. So we changed the name of
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: three six of My Feet because I felt like it
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: just because it was everybody was scared. REGULATED was like,
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: I don't know, man, I don't know. We might want
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: to say, we might don't. So it was, you know what,
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: him man, We changed the name up, and then things
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: started coming together, you know.
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: Even saying the book, you know that the three six
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: Mafia thing, the devil worst but thing was was kind
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: of a gimmick.
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: That's what I felt, you know what I'm saying. I
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: didn't see nobody works with the devil. So I just
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: looked at it like a gimmick, you know. I didn't
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: look at it like it was really worshman. The devil,
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. But I mean, like, Memphis
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: was a dark city, so it was a dark time.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: So you know, Triple six MAFI was perfect for that
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: at the time, you know what I'm saying, because mephis
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: is still dark. But it was like just it's crazy
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: and not and back then, but you know that's what
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: I'm saying. I was coming from that, so it was cool.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: But then like later on, we started making you know,
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: more music, and you know, a couple more I don't
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: think we brought this out. I'll called the end. We
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: had changed everything went from Triple six to three six
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: and it was better, you know, our sound had we
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: stepped that game up on the sound. We had a
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: couple of records on there that was a little bit
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: more radio friendly. Nobody wanted to play I should on radio,
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: so we had a couple of records on that radio friendly.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: So yeah, man, you know, it's just about growth. You know,
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: I was going to.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Ask how difficult was that coming up? You know, because
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: the sound was different, it was a sound that we
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: haven't heard before. How difficult was it breaking into different
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: markets outside of Memphis?
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: And we didn't give a fuck. We just did what
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: we did. You know, people caught on you know what
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: I'm saying. We we you know, we just experimented with
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: a lot of things. Man. We me and Paul was
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: one of the most greatest producers of all times. I mean, man,
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: we would experiment. I can't. I don't want to give
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: all my formula away, you know what I'm saying. You
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: gotta you know, read the book and uh, you know,
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: pay for that. But but we we experiment with a
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: lot of different things. Man, we we We are a
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: real artist, you know what I'm saying. We just niggas
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: is walking in there and just make a beat. We
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: we put it bringing, We bring the pain. You know,
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: you might walk in our study. You might see a
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: whole fucking orchestra in that motherfucker, you know what I'm saying.
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: And like we just had our minds. Was was just
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: bigger than just making a couple of beats and that
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: was it. Like I had to ask you to one hundred.
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: I would make beats on that, but then I would
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: add extra shit to it. Like I can't tell you
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: how I did it, but you know it's a secret
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: how how we made our music.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: Well, the formula to me was Memphis.
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: It was myth.
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: But that's what I love about the book too. How
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: you detail Memphis music history?
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, everything, everything, everything, I sound everything came
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: from the city, you know what I'm saying. But just
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: the way we made our beats, we had like a
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: certain kind of formula. We made our beats like you know,
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: some people make they beat certain ways, some people make
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. We had our way. We
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: made our beats because they're like, I ytata make y'all
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: bease sile like this, I ytta make y'all kicks out
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: like I gotta make y'all you know what I'm saying,
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: snare sounding like that. So we was very We made
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: our own We created our own snares, We created our
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: own kicks. You see what I'm saying. We didn't get
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: our kicked from somebody else. We created it.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: Now, you talk about the drug use in the book,
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: and you know you just mentioned it. Now, what got
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: you to slow down on.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: The drug use?
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Was it the birth of your kids? Was it mom
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: Duke's Was it not in the zone? What got you
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: out of that?
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: God called that time out?
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah it was it was. It was getting crazy. I
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: remember I was at a show in Atlanta, and I
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: was coming from Atlanta. I was doing a lot of niggs.
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: I was drinking at Bombay. Man. I was just like
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: really really fucked up, man, you know what I'm saying,
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: Like slumped over in the car and my body God
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: was like hit me like this, hey man, you take it.
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: He just whished out of my ear.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: Take it.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: He's on the drugs. Man, You're looking bad man, you know.
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: And I was on the the ride home, I just
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: had tears in my eyes. I was just thinking about
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: three six miles here, how can we get this group
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: back together and we could figure shit out, you know
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: what I'm saying. And so you know, that was just
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: one incident. And then I did a show in New
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: York and I had left my xen X in the room,
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: and boy, see I didn't I didn't know the power.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: For the power of xen X, you got to take
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: them jumps every day, if you like, miss a couple
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: of days, and you started getting these body these crazy
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: body aches talking like this shit is like, man, I
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: was like scratching, I was like tweaking. I was like, man,

• 16:35
  Speaker 4: like man, I don't feel good. Man. I didn't take
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: my Zans and shit, I left him in the room
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: and we did the show and I was sweating on stage,
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: and man, it was just like crucial. So then I
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: remember we went to Atlanta kind of just kind of
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: moving forward, cause we were flying all over the places
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: when we went to Atlanta. Because when I got back
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: to the room, I took the Zaan, so I was cool.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: I was like Jesus fu. So then I went we
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: went to Atlanta and I made a mistake when left
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: the Zans in the room again and we did to
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: do the show. I just made it. At that day, man,
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: I was really feeling really down. Bro. I was like
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: just like slumped over and I was like, man, I'm
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: not feeling good man. And I was outside the club
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: and I was telling Mike will I was like, man,
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: I left my Zans in the fucking room hotel room.
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: He said, oh, man, I know you. I know you're
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: going through it. And after that, I was like, man,
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: I can't do this shit no more. And my manager,
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: my cousin took me to a doctor and a doctor
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: told me how to get off the X.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Did you have to go to rehab or was it
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: something that.
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: He gave you. Oh? No, Well, he just told me
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: I was taking a whole one. He said, take a
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: half of it. He said, take a half and you'll
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: gradually just get off of it. That's all really. So
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: I just started taking half and I just gradually just
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: half a quarter tenth and yeah, and I got off
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: of it, you know what I'm saying. And right today,
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: I mean I'm cool. And it don't get me wrong.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: It's times I've been on the plane. I might take

• 18:03
  Speaker 4: like that voice hit me in the head, like put

  Speaker 5: them or you couldn't help them because you couldn'tven help
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: yourself at the time.
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, back in the day when three since
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: my we first started, I wasn't really doing a lot
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: of drugs like everybody else. You know what I'm saying.
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: I might little lean here, smoke a little taste of
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: weed there. You know, I was a heavy drinker, but
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: I didn't do drugs like they did drugs. They was
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: really going hard with the cocaine. And you know, Lord
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: was on a little hair on here and there. You
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. It was very, very very serious.
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: So my situation was I was trying to get everybody
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: off not so much. I was trying to get everybody
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: off of the I didn't really I really didn't give
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: a fuck about the syrup and the peels because I
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: feel like that really wasn't the problem. The problem I
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: saw was was a cocaine Because when they do cocaine,
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: when they come up those withdrawals, they go crazy. You
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. It makes you mad, makes you
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: like you're a tough guy, you know what I'm saying.
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: Nigga would hit their cocaine board. They would fucking tear
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: shit up. Paul, I'm going to club. They're the club
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: up from you know what, I'm saying, motherfucker would throw man,
• 19:41

• 19:43
  Speaker 4: a strap. You know what I'm saying, Like, motherfucker go crazy.
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. Niggas was just turned up
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: like that. And I was only, you know, like half
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: sober nigga. I mean half sober, like I might have
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: coll a couple of drinks or something. But I'm still saying,
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: so I'm like holding Paul back lord Coop, you know
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: what I'm saying. Coop was like a Coop was crazy
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: as hell, man like rest in peace, but he would
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: do anything like Coops. The nigga was just like if
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: you just say, man, let's just blow up a building,
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: he would. He'd be like all foy. He was crazy
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: like that, you know. And Crunchy Black. Same what Crunchy
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: Black was. Every week he was going to jail. He
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: just fight shootouts, all kind of shit. You know what
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: I'm saying, real shit. So I was just trying to
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: I was not. I wasn't not. I wasn't as high
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: as them. I was just trying to get that cocaine
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: out the way because I just every time that cocaine
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: was in the in the in the building, the ship
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: would go down if the pills was cool. You know
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: what I'm saying, I don't. I didn't see nothing going
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: drastic with the pills, but the cocaine was crazy. Then
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: when I seen Lord on the heron, I was like, oh,
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: this is getting a little different. Now, it's getting extra serious.
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: And that's when he just kind of listened. He pretty
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: much left the group on his own.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: Almost the misreading the book. I thought there was one
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: point Lord didn't do drugs.
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: Right, and at a point he didn't, you know what
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: I'm saying. At the point he didn't, he just smoked
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: a little weed and then he just, you know, things
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: start going up, you know what I'm saying. The more
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: money was start getting excuse me, things started going up,
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: and I was just trying the man. I was the
• 21:01

• 24:12
  Speaker 4: lot of xanaxy stuff, so you know, it.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Was around already.

  Speaker 4: And I used to when I used to was flying
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: a lot, and I was talking to this doctor met
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: in Hollywood. I was like, man, flying and ship, I

• 24:26
  Speaker 4: I got some funny and he just gave me the
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: xen X, you know what I'm saying. So it kind
• 24:30

  Speaker 4: I know, you know, crunching them take xan x, you
• 24:33

  Speaker 4: or whatever. But even that was like the cocaine. I
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: wouldn't do no because I felt like the cocaine was

  Speaker 4: more like the raised drug. So I was like, I
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: I ain't never had to tell these niggas to slow
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: down on the lean of stuff. Like that, So I
• 24:55

  Speaker 4: back up. But I was like, man, we're gonna we're
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: gonna be like Stacks, and I'm a following the footsteps
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: of Albil al Bell was like he was running Stacks
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: the black dude, And I got the book. I read
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: like I read that book like back and forth and
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: back and forth because I was so interested how to
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: hide this nigga from you know, he was actually from
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: he was from d c our Bell was from DC
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: and I was just he moved to Mimpus and he
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: started running stacks. So I was just so interested that,
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: like how this man run a whole record label. So
• 26:44
  Speaker 4: I was just reading about what he did, and I
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: took I talked about my book everything that he did.
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: I did a lot of stuff, you know, in my life,
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: my career to follow him his footsteps in their work,
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. So that's that was the
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: big influence that I had.
• 26:59
  Speaker 5: I don't want to get was too much away from
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: the book, But like when I read about the issues
• 27:02
  Speaker 5: you had with your father, right and and and some
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: of your upbringing, and then you know, now you got
• 27:08
  Speaker 5: two children. Yeah, do you feel like you're you've done
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: a good job of breaking some of those generational curses?
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: I think I wouldn't. I wouldn't call it a curse.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: I just called it. I just learned something from it,
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. I learned a lot from it.
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: I think I think I'm I'm good man. I'm good
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: with my kids. Man, Like if the one cause my
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: mom and my dad, I wouldn't probably probably be some

  Speaker 4: mad man, you know what I mean? Just being real.
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: They took care of me. I love them. They took
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: care of me. Man, they made sure we was straight
• 27:36

• 27:47
  Speaker 4: them day one. I'm still there for them, like you
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: might talk about in my book. Like every time they
• 27:51

• 27:53
  Speaker 4: was in the strip club having sex with the phone
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: ring is my mom is something like, hey, stop to
• 27:59

• 28:01
  Speaker 4: time because mymphis was so bad, and you know, I
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: didn't know it was it. They just called me to
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: check on me and saying I'm doing or it could
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: have been like an emergency. I mean one time, one
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: time my dad called me. I was high as a mother,
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. It was kind of weird too,
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. I thought I was smoking
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: some weed and I thought they'd put some cocaine in it. Man, bro,
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: I was so high, I was like laughing and SHIP
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: couldn't stand up straight. I was feeling like I was
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: about to pass out. He just called me. I know,
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: he was like, what you're doing. I was like chilling,
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. He's like, oh, okay, I'm
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: just checking. I just thought about you, and I was
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: just this must have been a sign from God. Let
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: me get out of this. I was at somebody house
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: and let me get the hell out of here. Man
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: at the time, you know, so I left. But yeah,
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: they all they took care of me.
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: They made me who I am today.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: You your granddad had, do you have? It was two
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: families that all had the same names.
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah. He had had one family Lymphis and
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: I think the other one the other one was like
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: in Mississippi, and so he had named him the same names.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: So that's wow.
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so he couldn't you remember? He remember the names?
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. Like, my mom name was Shirley,
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: so he named his other daughter he had somewhere else Shirley.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: So he can remember the names.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: When did y'all find that out? Uh?
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: My mom told me and my aunts told me. They
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: told me a lot of a lot of stuff about him.
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: I mean, he was he passed away before I was born,
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: But they told me a lot of stuff about him,
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: and I just felt like, like going back to mental
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: mental health. You know my mom, you know what I'm saying.
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: For her to come from that kind of situation, you know,
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: I could tell, like you know, she had been damaged
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: by that. You know what I'm saying. I could tell
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: doing her movements and things she did. She was upset
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: about that. You know, she told me her dad never
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: told her he loved her. You know what I'm saying.
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: So that's bad, man, you know what I'm saying. So
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: like I said, man, mental health starts with in the
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: beginning of your life, and it can affect you later.
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: It does affect you later on in your life.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: You ever think about while our parents never said I
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: love you, like, why was it so difficult for our
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: parents to be like, I love you? Because when you
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: hear the story all the time about our generation saying
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: their parents never said I love you ever, because that's
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: my daughter, I say it all the time, I said overly.
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: But you know, I think we take for granted.
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: And like the way you're talking about mental health, the
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: way I talked about mental health, we're the first generation
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: that has the luxury of healing. The generation before they
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: were scratching and surviving, you know what I mean.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: Like they weren't thinking about that kind of stuff. They
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: weren't thinking about emotions.
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: And all that. My mom, my mom told me, she
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: told me she loved me, though did too.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: My dad didn't.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: My dad didn't. But now later on, later on in life, Yeah,
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: they get it to you.
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, we need that though. You know, the kids
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: need that love. Man, you know what I'm saying. Absolutely,
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. And like I said, and
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: that affects us later on our life. You know, you're
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: thinking about Like my mom talked about that, and I
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: was like, damn, I felt like she was really she
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: was really messed up about that, like like he never
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: told me he loved me, you know what I'm saying.
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: She was saying, and she would have tears in her eyes.
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: So yeah, it's terrible, man, you know what I'm saying.
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: She had to go through that, and she really never
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: talked to any about it. It was all she was
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: always quiet about a lot of different things. And that's
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: why I said, a lot of times, we just need
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: to be needing to have somebody to talk to, you know,
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: like a therapist. I have a therapist. You know what
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: I'm saying. Her, You talk about therapists like I got one.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: I've had a couple of, you know what I'm saying,
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: and uh, we need that man. You know what I'm saying.
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: You know we we definitely need to pray and pray
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: to God most definitely, that's number one. And if we
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: need to have somebody to talk to, we need to
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: have somebody to talk to to try to help get
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: over that. Because I feel like if she maybe would
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: have had if she would have talked to talk to
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: somebody about that and somebody maybe like could understand her
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: and listen to her things that maybe had been different.
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: My mom was closed off. She didn't really she had
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: she really had like a lot of friends. She was
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: kind of just closed off, you know what I'm saying,
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: and it just affected you know, all that stuff affected her.
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: Man. But what got you on your healing journey.
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: Just you know, talking to talking with my therapist. My therapist.
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: The first thing he told me, he said, man, let's
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: start with the beginning. You know what I'm saying, how
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: you know, how were you raised? Weren't you you know,
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: how was your mom? And then that would put me
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: I was like, oh, okay, that's why I'm like I
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: am today because I went through this and you know
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: what I'm saying, Okay, okay, now started realizing helped me
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: really like my issues I had, like my paranoia, always
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: looking over my shoulder.
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, I might overdo it. I
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: might have like more guns on me than the average
