  Speaker 3: Gotta deal with the elements.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: I like outside running more. I don't know, it's just

  Speaker 1: going somewhere.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: Twenty four degrees through outside today.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I just was outside at the Lamb truck with short
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: tun and for real, Like, that's cryo therapy for me.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Like when your body, when you subject your body to
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: cold temperatures, what it does is in order for to
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: stay warm your bady, to kill off all your bad selves,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: all your inflammation and things of that nature. So it
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: was therapeutic in nature for me.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: What got you into your knowing yourself and knowing your
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: body soul?
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: So?
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Well, how did you get on that journey?
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: I used to do drugs, and drugs used to make
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: me feel good, and I believe that rehabits for quitters,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: so I never been to reh have So now it's
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: like I do things that make me feel good. Working
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: out makes me feel good. I'm addicted to it now.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Before I work out in the morning, don't talk to me.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: I'm a grouch. I'm gonna curse everybody out. Just let
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: me get this work out out the way and then
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: after that, hey, I'm good. I can be of service now.
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: You know the beauty of what you said. Most people
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: will say that about coffee. Most people will.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Say that about weed. You know what I mean. I
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: can't talk to you till I drink my coffee.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: I can't talk to you. I smoke my cigarette a
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: smoke of blood. The fact you said that about.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Exercise, that's crazy that you say that those are rituals.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Like my morning ritual is working out. And that's crazy
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: that I got a coffee brand called ritual, like as
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: far as me being one of the generals, its general's ritual.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: That's my coffee brand, And that's a ritual. That's one
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: of my rituals in the morning. I gotta have my coffee.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: I gotta work out. I gotta get up in the morning,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: black coffee, cold, shower, pray, stretch, workout, and then I
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: can be of service. But before that, don't talk to me.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: I'm a grouch man. The thing I love about you too,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Kevin Man.
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: And when I listen to this ceremony, everything you're saying
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: right now reflecting the music, every like every single thing
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: you call it medicine music.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Talk to me about what medicine music is to you.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: The music that raises your frequency Like. I used to
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: just play a lot of songs on Live Like because
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: when I'm working out in the gym, I like to
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: hear something positive but hard. So I got this one
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: song on the called The Ceremony where I'm talking to
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: myself and I'm like, purpose driven, I'm developing richesh you
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: pleasure driven, you develop adjiction, elevated and ranking. My dick
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: is not friendly. I would not be distracted by women
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: like because I and the reason I said that is
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: because every time you on your purpose, that's when all
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: the distractions come. When I'm trying to call and see people,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: don't nobody have got time for me. Like soon as
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: it's payday, everybody call you. They know your They just
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: like they got a magic PingER or a blink or
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: something that let them know that you just got some money,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: all your energy up. That's when all the distractions come.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: When you're doing you're supposed to be doing.
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: I want you to expound on that because that was
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: one of the lines I love from Ceremony, when you
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: said you was purpose driven over being pleasure driven. I
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: think we're in an era right now where everybody's pleasure driven.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Man. When you when you pleasure driven, you develop addictions.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: And what I mean by that is any feeling gonna
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: get old to you, so you're gonna constantly be chasing
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: a greater feeling. That's why people have become addicted to
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: drugs or whatever they become addicted to. I done became
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: addicted to things that's gonna raise my frequencies, such as
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: working out, the fitness and things of that nature. So
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: that's what I mean by If you purpose driven, and
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: you stay on your purpose, like I said on one
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: of my other songs, if you're looking for a micro
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: wave blessing, it won't happen. That's right now.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: You also say earlier you said you know rehab was
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: for quitters, So that's for quitters. My question is, so
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: how did you get over the drug addiction you said
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: you had?
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Is some of those negativeddictions, you know, if you go
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: back to one of the old interviews on here, I
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: was in here drinking lean in a coffee cup. Really yeah,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: I had a coffee cup with a lid on it.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: I was drinking, sir in an interview. Wow, I was
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: a junkie when I had the habit or my body
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: with ache. If I didn't have it. It ain't nothing,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: but heroin addiction is a disease. Yeah, of course, I
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: don't know why people don't look at it like that.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: It was a disease. Yeah. So I replaced that habit
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: with another habit. I didn't just go cold Turkey. I
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: had to replace my unhealthy habits with healthy habits. And
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: as I kept going and going and going, you know,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: I start getting into body hacks, like if you take this,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: it'll give you more energy. If you take that, it'll
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: make you It'll make you focus better, like saffering, it'll
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: make you focus. It's just like adderall if you take
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: a sea mass and she legit and all that. So
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: I just start getting in all that. If you drink
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: beat you that take all the sortness out of your
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: muscles because it's high nitrous out said. So I just
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: got to look in at body hacks, like what could
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: make me perform better? So I could get even greater feeling.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: And it's another end of journey. It don't stop.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: What was the test?
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Was it a near scare?
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: Was it a friend of yours that was close that
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: almost passed?
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: What was the reason? Like?
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: No, today's all change.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: I was embarrassed into working out and it was beautiful.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: I was embarrassed in us getting in shape because when
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: I was fat and I had titties, when I would
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: walk in the room, I would look for the flowers
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: and everybody in the room and I would expound on
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: those flows, so no one would pay attention to me.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: You're projected. I was projecting, so no one would pay
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: attention to me. But when I had my shirt off
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: at the video shoot, I'm like, yeah, I'm trap house sixy,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: I'm on the block six. That was a facade. I'm
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: holding a baby, the baby trying to suck my titty.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Everybody looking, they laughing, but it's one of them laughs
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: like you don't want to you don't want me to
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: see you laughing, so they like. And then I see
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: the baby leaning. That's the most embarrassing shit in the world.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: When you holding a child and the child innocent, HI
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: don't know no better. He reallean, the baby really trying
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: to suck your titty. I hear, man, take this baby,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: and everybody fell out laughing at me, and I felt
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: like the worst than the world. I was like, so
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: it was anger, it was embarrassment, it was everything, and
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I was. I couldn't be mad at everybody because ship
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: the baby. You know what I'm saying, They trying to
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: suck my tea. And after that, that's what just made
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: me say, you know what, I ain't fucked that man,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: I'm about to get in shape. I'm tired of being
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: a fast slob. And then everybody watched when I got
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: on the on Instagram and I said that before I'm like, God,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: just make me lose all this weight today. God, I'm
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: tired of being a fast slob. I don't want to
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: be the fat rapper no more. And everybody just followed
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: my progress in my journey since twenty eighteen.
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: You really worked out, you ain't. You wasn't like an
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: Ozimpic gold medalist. You wasn't doing none of that right.
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: Ozimpic is the shot that everybody's taking now.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: You know this, People that take that shot, their head
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: be bigger than they body. You notice that the head,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: it looks like You're right, I'd be like, they head
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: be bigger than they body. It looked like they be disproportioned.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Even people that go get surgery, like not women, I
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: don't know what women be there. They be looking good
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: when they do it. But like a lot of the
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: men that I see that go get surgery, they head
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: be bigger than they batty, like it's disproportioned, like it's
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: I'd rather just be disciplined because if I cheat, my
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: white Cheetahs never win. I'm gonna hold myself accountable. Like
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: I just come off a seven day fast right before
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: my listening party, I ain't eating nothing for seven days,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: no food at all, no food at all, so just
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: a liquid or just liquid. I've been longer than that, though,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: but I just need to clarity, and whenever things get
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: too cloud for me, I just don't eat nothing. Wow.
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: When you say rehabits for quitters are you're not discouraging rehab,
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: are you? Cause some people in mind isn't strong enough
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: to just quit things cold turkey. Some people need to
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: go to rehab and have other people there to hold
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: them responsible, hold them accountable.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Quitters. But that's the point. You want to quit the
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: drugs now, I'm gonna replace on healthy habits with healthy haveabit.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: I see what you're saying, because because once I started
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: working out, that lean started tasting like drugs to me.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: Once I started sweating out and detaxing, my body. When
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: I drink, I'd be like she takets like drugs and
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: me wanting better for myself made me not want to
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: fuck with it. I'm not about to sit around for
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: you to come pat me in my ass and all
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: letting tell me it's gonna be okay, Kevin, Little Kevin
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: and nothing. That's not what the world gonna do, Kevin.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: So I can't talk about what nobody else going through.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: I gotta hold myself accountable, rehabits for quitters. I can't
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: get up there and say, now, some baby gonna say
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: that was fucked up. He said that. Nah, I take
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: self accountability. It may sound harsh, but I'm gonna beat
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: myself up so the world can't beat me up. Because
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: the world is a cruel place. It can be a
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: beautiful place if you allow it to be on your
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: perspective changes. That's what miracles have. But I'm not. I
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: don't need nobody. I don't need to go sit in
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: front of nobody and they tell me, yeah, the first
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: kids admitting you have a problem. I told myself I
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: got a problem. I talked to myself. I'm in tune
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: with myself. I'm calling twice as bigger than me. And
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: I say that because I'm calling this female Collins female. Hey, Kevin,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: stop calling that whole fuck that O. You stay on
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: your purpose. When she comes back, you ain't gonna have
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: time for I talk to myself. People may say i'dm crazy,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: but I'm winning. That's how I process things. It's talking
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: to myself.
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: On the song Broken Men, you you talk oh my god,
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: I can't believe. Oh, I think that this is probably
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: your best album to me, but I'm broken men. You
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: talk about a person who told you things would fall
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: apart if y'all split. That's a true story.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: That's a true story I had on I asked somebody
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: to tell me that if we were if we wasn't together,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: that everything will fall apart. You know this is some
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: old like but they told me that, and I was like,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: and that affected me. I never said nothing about it,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: but that was kind of part of my draft, Like
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna show you. I'm gonna hustle so hard you're
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: gonna have to see me, and if you don't see me,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: you're gonna have to hear about me. And that was
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: part of my motivation and in doing all of those things,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: like kind of like the great gas he did all
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: of if you if you never seen the movie, he
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: did all of these things, these great feats, only to
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: show somebody else his worth. So I did all of
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: these things just to realize that external things never add value,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: anything external. And it was like the reason I called
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: it broken me in because so many men go through
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: that feeling inadequate, not feeling good enough, feeling like they're
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: owner as good as their ability, to their ability to
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: provide and to do, And because I still feel like
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: that sometimes, like like what can I give? Did I
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: do enough? And things of that nature. But I hate
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: to sound like one of them people that, uh what
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: you call them? Them? You know them positive people that
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: I hate, not not them, know, the ones that go
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: hiking and ship with you. Hippies. They're your sponsor, they said,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: hippies accountability partner. Yeah, they'll tell you are enough people.
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: What you mean, that's that's like a sponsors.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: I hate to sound like one of them, but you
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: are enough, Like anything external does it add value? You
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: are enough. I didn't know I was enough until I
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: got to really know myself, and I'm like, man, I
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: don't fly, And that's kind of like I still like
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: the way Juror and stuff for my brother. But at
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: my listening part, I ain't even with no Juror, and
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: it came and gifted me with this watch I had
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: never seen before, and then I just put it on us.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: I ain't even gonna wark no jeur. I am the Juror.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: I think of the situation like that.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: You know, back to what you were saying, a lot
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: of times your partner or your friends around you should
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: be instilling that into you. That's why you talk about
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: positive energy and your friends in positive frequencies.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't have that around me coming from where
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: I came from. So a lot of times when somebody
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: could see your greatness, they'll say things to put these
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: up on the same level as you, so you won't
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: think too much of yourself because you might get away
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: from them. And you know this is you know miss
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Misery Loves Company question.
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: Was that person right, the person who told you things
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: wouldn't work out for you if y'all split.

• 14:32
  Speaker 1: of let you in. Yeah, come on, man, we don't.
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: We don't talk about the inspiration that women can provide
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: like that. We just heard Rod Wave say the same thing.
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: He was like he got on his grind musically because
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: his girlfriend at the time was a super NBA young boyfriend.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: I go back and tell her thank you all the time,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: thank you, but not believe in him. Say I still
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: have a good relationship, not believe in well, I don't
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: know what she is right now? Thank you. Then what
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: did she say when you say that to her? She cried, Dang,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: she missed me something serious. I'm turned up about you.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: I got beautiful children. This shit in our life goes on.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: Speaking of turned up, did you really go to a
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: Beyonce concent and turn up in a Beyonce concert?
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Buck? But look, this is what happened. I paid for
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: my nannies. All my nanni is to go to the concert.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: So you remember when they were supposed to come to
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: New Orleans. So they had everybody was outside, just outside.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: So I'm like, oh, we're gonna go because I've been going.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I went to a Drake concert. I went two nights
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: in the road of Drake. I wann't seeing Usher, you know,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: I'm just on that end, like just studying all of
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: the greats. So you know, if you go to New Orleans,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: it's a party outside before you even go inside. So
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: I was bomb bomb, bomb bomb, you know, and it
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: just it was a party outside before it was a
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: part of inside. So that was like, I'm beyond turned.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: So he really turned during that time. Yes, Lord, if
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: I come out the shirt, I love to come off
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: my shirt. I mean, look at me. I just I
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: love to come on my shirt. I love to take
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: it off now. I used to hate that, just I
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: used to wear layers. Now I can't wait to come
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: on my shirt. You want to come out that bitch
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: right now. You ever wonder what the titties went? You
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: have a look at the mirror and be like, no,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: it was dietary issues. It was it was dairy, it
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: was it was the day I was eating. I still
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: like a little I still do a lit deer every
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: now and then, but it got to be done in
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: moderation because it'll caused you to be like, it'll caused
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: you to have that little layer of fat like up
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: under your nipples that men have then most men don't notice.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: You still got apps way up here. You know what
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, And that's what tightened it up. And dips
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: tighten it up. Also, I thought I was gonna have
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: to get that litt fat removed. It scared me. But
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: I noticed once I changed my diet and started working
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: those areas, I ain't got no problem. That's what I'm together.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: Now back to the y'all say freestyle. BG is on
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: that record BG and sixty rig one of the first
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: here BG and sex rep. But this was one of
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: the first times we've heard of BG verse. So was
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: you and BG cool? How did you and BG link
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: for this one? This is the first verse.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: I've been knowing him because he like a friend of
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: the family, Like I got cousins that know him, like Menace.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I got Booby, that's my brother, he know him. He
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: grew up with them. And I've been knowing him for
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: a couple of years playing, but like thirteen years. We
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: ain't seen each other in about thirteen years. I probably
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: know him a couple of years before that, maybe like
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: we met like two thousand and seven eight or something.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: But through friends of the family, and we always have
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: been kind of cool. But the whole time he was
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: in prison, we always sent them pictures and looked out
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: for him and things of that nature. So his journey
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: was our journey. He was with us when we was
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: in Germany. He had the pictures and everything, Like we
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: walked him all the way down his whole big for
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: people that don't know what that mean, walked him down
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: his whole big. We josed him, We sent pictures to him,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: you know, we kept he kept his spirits lifted. So
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: when he came home, it was just only right. It
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: was only right, like it was beautiful. It was historical
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: nature of me. He's a legend to me.
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: I love the way you sound, because sometimes you know,
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: somebody will go get locked up and they come home
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: after a while and they got that that old flow on.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: But he sounds. I think he better than sound. He
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: get up and work out every morning and everything he
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: on his workout ship and it goes straight to the studio.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: So I think this situation made him better than ever.
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: You know, you talk on this album a lot about
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: cleaning your sins. What does cleaning your sins look like?
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: What kind of sins, some because some some some sins
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: people are saying, uh some some sins people will say, like,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: uh that you that they did something bad they need
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: forgiveness for it. Some sins you gotta forgive yourself for.
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: So what are those sins you talking about?
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: Because to me everything seems like a like you said,
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: a self awareness journey of reflection you talking about.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: When I say hear him clean, uh fellers floating on the
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: top of my head, cleaning my sins, I think that's
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: all of my sins. Okay. You know when I go
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: up on the mountain and I ask God for forgiveness, Hey,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: forgive me for the things that I did unknowingly, forgive
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: me the things I did noringly. Just forgive me, and
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: then I forgive myself so I don't keep looping in it.
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: What does that feel like? Do you feel it like?
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: Do you feel something removed from you?
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Come off your spirit. You can feel it like
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: you could see it right here and say, on this
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: whole of the divine day, I hear by release all
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: the energy that no longer serve my higher self, and
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: you're gonna feel lifted because we impassed. We pick up
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: on energy everywhere we go. Now, some stuff, a lot
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: of people say that I did. They look at it
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: as sins, But I don't look at it as sins.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: I look at it that that needed to be done,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: So them ain't the sins I'm talking about it. I
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: need forgetting this for if I did that, I meant
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: that because some things, you know, it just had to
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: go like that. What you mean, like discipline, like violence? Yeah,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: standing up for myself, you know, because you know a
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: lot of times people don't learn from just talking. Pain
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: sometime has to be the greatest motivator.
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: From what I learned, it's actually better.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: I don't feel like self defense is a no.
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: And it's actually better when you got a clear mind
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: because you know you're not projecting your pain and hurt
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: onto somebody, so you know you're only defending yourself.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: I don't operate like that. But I'm big on respect,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: like I'm super big. I'm still big on respect because
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: at the end of the day, that's all I have.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: But I leave with my respect first. But they got
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: some people that And I tell my children this, I
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: love y'all. I do, and I'm a great father. But
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: some people did have to know me as a monster,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: because that's the only way that they will stop.
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: I love a bird birds calling too.
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: Man, When you say you're a polycanto big torch lighter,
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: you say prayer is more important than exotic cause. And
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: to me, was it intentional to put lyrics like that
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: in a song called birds Calling?
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Because people will see the title and thinks it was intentional?
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: Because like I said, I got a new coffee brand
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: called Ritual. It's out right now, and it was beautiful
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: because I went back to the trap, but instead of
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: flipping bricks, it was keys of coffee. Was the beautiful
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: thing about it. Like some people say, he's glorifying this,
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: glorifying that, No I'm not. I'm turning the negative into
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: a positive. I just got the key to the city
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: and bad and ruge and I got the key to
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: the city in New Orleans. And I never thought that
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: what I was doing was helping people like but what
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: I'm doing, like helping other people heal, is really me
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: helping myself.
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: Here, you got two songs on the album with the
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: healing title. One is called Healing, the other one is
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: called Orried.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: I'm proud of you. I think you're doing amazing every song.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: I'm on there talking to myself every song, Like every song,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: I'm talking to myself.
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: I don't think you can heal anybody. Okay, you think so?
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: You said you can heal a woman. Yes, I think
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: a person has to want to go get healing.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: I heal ship. Yes, Lord to how you start to call?
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: At what point you know my touch is healing? But
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: you know I heal a ship. Though. You really think
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: you can heal a woman. I don't think I know?
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: Can you? I think you can.
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: Assist them, show them the direction.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be a new creature when she leaves around me.
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: You can't start with calling her a bitch, the person
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: you're healing.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: That's only in private and public's bay and love and
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: all of that. But in private, oh bitch, it's a
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: term of endearment. Bitch, you so beautiful? Oh Lord, yes, Lord, God,
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: thank you, God, bless the hand in preparing this meal.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Were about to say, our grace. But you can't go
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: around just healing everybody. Have a flashback now, I don't
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: heal that everybody. Everybody don't deserve here, That's what I'm saying. Okay,
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: everybody don't deserve healing. Because they might be here for
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: a week, then they'll just go back to that same,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: that same behavior. Then I got to put them on
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: deck restriction.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: Restriction.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: You have to put girls on a restriction, Yes, yes, sir?
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: How long? What's the longest you ever? Did? I do?
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: I start with? And you tell them that you're like
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: the first offense?
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: What's the defense?
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I just it depends on your you know,
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: code of conduct is big with me. You know, to
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: what's the cooter co? What see you? What do you
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: have a problem with? Different? So what's part of it?
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: Ain't that? But you know, like I believe that honesty
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: is the best policy. Like when I meet you, I'm
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: gonna tell you the truth. I'm gonna tell you how
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: I'm living. This how I'm living now. If you accept
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: it or rejected, it's how I'm living. Have you ever
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: had girls rejected like I'm not doing ninety Reschriedule. No,
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: they don't that, none of they don't go like that.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: It just they just end up being like, look, you
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: keep on, I'm gonna put your own dick restriction so
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: you still go out. You just no, I'm just I'm
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: just you gonna you know, like I say, rejection is
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: rejection is a beautiful thing. I reward loyalty with loyalty.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: I reward disloyalty with distance. You know, you you think
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: about what you did. You know what I'm saying. If
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: you're not, it's not peaceful. I'm not gonna be nowhere.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: That's not peaceful. I'm not gonna be nowhere that's gonna
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: lud my frequency. That's just why I'm with it. Like
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: I ain't trying to be you know, I ain't trying
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: to make the blogs for you know, talking like this,
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: but yeah, it's how I'm coming.
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: Have you ever been on vagina restriction?
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: Who me? Bye bye? I can't. I've already I already
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: had it, Like you don't know Glood and Lightning both
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: shoot out their motherfucker what I'll do? Respect, baby, But
• 24:26

• 24:33
  Speaker 1: was when you met me. Damn you already knew. Like
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: with all due respect, Like see, I don't know why
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: I be meeting killers. That's scared to tell a woman
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: the truth? Like when you tell a woman the truth.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: You give her the option, I understand is the best policy.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: But women have intuition. And the reason I'm truthful with
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: a woman because it's spiritual. They are spiritual creatures. They
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: can transform liquid into something physical, so they already know
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: you fullishit real when they meet you, they already knew,
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: like they know what's up with you? Like, so, babe,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: where you've been? Fucking baby? You don't help me? Watch
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: these sins off me? You're gonna help me? Watch these sins?
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Are you want me to help you pack? Which one? Baby?
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Like what we're gonna do.
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: One of the two, because you know either she's gonna leave,
• 25:17
  Speaker 5: what she's gonna stay. So you're gonna help me? Watch
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: these sins off you are you're gonna help me pack?
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: I mean they already know, Like women already know what
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: you've been doing. Like, I don't know why people think
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: they don't women psychic. I'm not about to lie. And
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: then God and bless me. I got too many blessings.
• 25:32
  Speaker 6: So do you ever see yourself with just one woman?
• 25:34
  Speaker 6: I'm with one woman right now. What at the moment, you.
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: Know when you talk about layd when somebody's disloyal to you,
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: how do you bring them back in your fold?
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Like trust?
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: Once trust is violated, that's a motherfucker, man.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: It ain't it ain't gonna it ain't gonna never be
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: the same no more. I mean, suspect eve no want
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: to see it once? See it, forget it not once?
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: The enemy could never be a friend. And that's just
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: I had to. I had to cut a lot of baggage.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: I had to trim a lot of fat like that
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: last the last time we was here, I trimmed a
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: lot of facts since then, like with just the people
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: around me, I started throwing away all of the wrong relationships,
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: follow the right reasons. And sometimes we be lowyer to
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: things that's not loyal to us. But that's just why
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: I'm at with it right now.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Were you a forgiving person? Were you somebody that I forgive?
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Like I told y'all last time, I forgive, I do,
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: but I ain't about to forget. Let's not be naive,
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: nobody that you just do it to me again, Like, no,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: that's not intelligent.
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: You told another great story on healing.
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: You told a story about a woman not getting wet
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: for you no more, and you said mentally, shit.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Women, women, women can mentally check out. They can mentally
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: move on. And you know they have vaginal dry vaginal drying?
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: Is there a rouse a fluid? Not there? No more
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: because they just they mentally moved on. That can happen.
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: And what are you doing a woman in that situation?
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: You just let it go? I mean the proof is
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: in the putting there. You know what I'm saying. Yeah,
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: it's the proof is in the putting. Now, she could
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: have been dehydrated or something because she was on the plane.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: But I ain't got time to be in all that.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: You know, you checked out, baby, it's mentally checked out.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Women mentally checked out. When I had to ask my
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: mother what that was, she said, Baby, she might have

  Speaker 1: it win or been down and all that, you know,
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: with a pistol in my hand. You know what I'm saying.
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: These are learned behaviors.
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: You have a look at some of the stuff that
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: people pick up that you've said or that goes viral
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: and be like, they just misconstrute what I said.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: Well, no, no, I don't really pay that no attention.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: I used to, like in twenty twenty one, I used
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: to pay attention to Instagram, but once I deactivated my
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: page for that year and a half, I ain't engaged
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: with the world now, because comparison is the killer of
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: all joy. Because if I say something and they might
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: just take a lit piece of it and it goes viral,
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: but then when you go look at the real interview,
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: you're gonna be like, he really made a lot of sense.
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: And that's why my mama said man, I don't even
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: tell nobody. I know this is gonna sound weird. No,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: it don't sound weird. This me. I'm my authentic self.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: People gonna either accept you or they not, and that's
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: just why I'm with it or nothing.
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: What made you take the page away for that year
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: and a half? Was it clear your mind?
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: I was depressed. It was causing depression because comparison is
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: the killer of all joy. I'm comparing my life to
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: other people highlight real and it was causing depression. Once
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: I got off there and started engaging with the world,
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: I'm like, man, people love me. People love me. On
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: the black top, people love me. People walk up to
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: me and tell me, man, you changed my life. They
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: don't really say that on Instagram. They say negative things
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: all the time. Of course.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, I I seen something the other day when
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: I guess you're talking from this two times and people,
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: well he said this, I'm like, y'all must not know.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I saw. I told him if have you
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: ever seen any flaws? He said no. I said, if
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: you do, will you please put my feet now? Mean
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: to slam you if I do something, slam me like
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: how No, No, blow my brains out, put my feet.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: Kill you kill me if I do something wrong, like
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: I say, like I said on the other thing, Hey
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: find me them two niggas. Find me that one that
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: and find me the other one that can say I
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: told on him. It's something to jail. You find me
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: them two niggas. You can blow my mama brains out.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: I ain't never heard those rumors. When I heard that
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: I'm saying, I was like, somebody said.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: That, No, I stand for something. So that's why I
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: said that, you find me them two niggas, you can
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: blow my brains off right here. I stand for something.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Find me a nigga that
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: can say he stuck his dick in me. And find
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: me a nigga that can say that I told on
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: him and send him to jail. Find me them two niggas,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: and you can blow my brains out right here. And
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: I mean that I stand for that. You know, because
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: only when you when you start, when you start paying
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: attention to the Internet, you can get lost in it.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: It's the blacktope that matter to me. That don't matter.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: That's just talk to Internet talk. And some people live
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: their life based on social media, but if you really
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: get out in the real world and engage with the world,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: the world operates one hundred percent different than this shit.
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: And I think sometimes people like you and Finess y'all
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: forget y'all know each other's lingos, So y'all having a conversation.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: I want to be honest. I could be honest with

• 32:41
  Speaker 1: and he know what I meant, and I know what

• 34:31
  Speaker 1: it's okay to be upset, But emotionally and intelligently, how
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: do we channel these feelings and these emotions? I asked myself,

• 38:52
  Speaker 1: I got all this positive shit to say, but I

  Speaker 1: ain't feeling positive when I'm talking that shit. That shit
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: just sound good as a bit. Everybody want to hear
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: that been it positive, but I'm not happy. That's how
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: I was feeling at that time. I'm like, yeah, you know,
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: just positive, just stay positive. I was faking it till
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: I made it, but I really wasn't making it because
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: I never addressed the real issue internally. I still had
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: hard with all kind of resentment and everything from past
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: traumatic experiences.
• 39:20
  Speaker 5: And now that you've done that, that's how you know
• 39:22
  Speaker 5: you're a true service. You gotta go back and face it.
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: That was the hard part, going back and face your past.
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: You gotta face it. You gotta face it, you gotta
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: sit with it. And when you sit with it, it's
• 39:34
  Speaker 5: gonna be very, very painful. Like anybody listening right now,
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: it's gonna be painful to go address these issues because
• 39:40
  Speaker 5: it's a lot of stuff that we keep. Like we
• 39:45
  Speaker 5: suppressed things, and like you could suppress things for so
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: long to one of the thing could cause you to
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: explode or implode.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: It's a trigger. So I had to go back and
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: face a lot of these things. You know, sometime things
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: I had to forgive myself for and move forward. You know,
• 40:03

  Speaker 1: like with the pain. And you never know what pain
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: to make you do you.
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: Have a look at an artist that you can see
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: going through the pain that you went to as a
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: new artist, say I'm gonna reach out to them and
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: talk to them because they didn't have that og. They
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: didn't have somebody to talk to them.
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: No, they could listen to Kevin Gate's music and get
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: some advice from there. I ain't got time. I'm raising children.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: I'm raising me in right now. I got my own
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: children to worry about. I ain't got time to be
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: I hate to say it like this, I have to
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: put my oxygen masks on first. If the plane is crashing,
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: then aid and assists others. So right now, my healing
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: journey was so that I could be a better service
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: to my children and better service to the world. Me
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: going sing a lot and talk that this one individual
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: person he got needs that I can't cater to because
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: I ain't got the time. He gonna want more than
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: just some words of encouragement. He gonna want to come
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: spend a day as soon as you tell him no.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: It's like you never told him. Yeah, especially if he
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: ain't never had no daddy. So if he if he
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: grew up just dealing with just a single parent household
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: and he ain't had his daddy, how Tupac saying when
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: things but the same drama. When things go wrong, we
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: blame mom. You don't know how to deal with situations.
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: All you did is watch a woman just want but
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: see when a man raise that. Go in there and
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: make your bed up, take the trash out, you brush
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: your teeth, come heah, wash your face. Yes, sir, all right,
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: come on, let's go. I'm proud of you. Now you
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: know if now you know, if you don't do these things,
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: you got to take your lick. What you mean, take
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: my lick? You got to take your lick. You can't
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: play the game. And that's teaching accountability self accountability. And
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: then a child be like, Okay, yeah, I gotta take
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: my lick. If if I do something I ain't supposed
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: to do, I gotta take my lick. We not make
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: excuses for why you did what you did. Now you
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: gotta take your lick home. When you're a man, stand
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: with what you believe in. We stay with what you
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: believe in you except what come behind it. You know,
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: I talked to my son. He he ain't nothing but nine,
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: but I talked to him like he grown. Because either
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: you learn fast, you die young. If I don't. If
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: I don't give him structure, the police donna kill him. Hm,
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: they gonna kill him. They're gonna push your ship out
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: because it's called the conduct gonna be off. He ain't
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: gonna be conducting himself like a man. He gonna be
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: you know, but you know yes, sir, No, sir, you
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: know me? Agree me?
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: Protect children?
• 43:40
  Speaker 5: Speaking of that, protect children another very powerful record. What
• 43:43
  Speaker 5: are some things you learned late that you want to
• 43:46
  Speaker 5: teach your kids early.
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: I hope it's not triggering. I really don't care if
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: it is, because we all damn have been through this.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: That was about sexual victimization. Protect children. I treat your
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: children like my children, like my birth children. When we
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: was little, they used to say we was the worst children.
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: We all been through things that at our fault. You
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: got to work with them. Protect children. You're not supposed
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: to hurt children. And what that is. I gave my
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: children a place, a safe space. I created a safe
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: space for them to communicate with me. Don't nobody never
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: touch you that, not even me, not even your daddy,
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: not even your mom, and nobody you know, and they
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: have a safe space to communicate. Can't nobody get you
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: nowhere and tell you if you tell your mam ma,
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: imna hurt you. I'm gonna hurt you. Ay, y'all haven't
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: seen what's up with y'all. Daddy, y'all know what comes
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: behind y'all. So I have created a safe environment for
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: y'all to communicate with me. And I asked my and
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: my daughter tell you right now. I tell my daddy
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: everything because I'm not here to judge you. We all
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: make mistakes. We're gonna talk about what you did. I'm
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: just disappointed a lit bit, but don't worry about that.
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: I'm not here to judge you. I'm not here to
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: beat you up for what you did or what happened
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: to you. Just let me know. I don't care if
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: you had a wreckon you accidentally kill somebody. They just say, hey,
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: just stay there, stay there, I'm on the way. Now
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: are you getting this car? And go? We put the
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: body in the trunk. Come on, let's go. Always tell
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: me the truth. I die for you, and I die
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: to protect you.
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: That's great advice that you tell your kids too, because
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: as somebody who's been molested right when I was eight, saying,
• 45:24
  Speaker 5: that's exactly what they tell you. The person that's doing
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: it will tell you that, like don't tell your mom.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: It's always somebody close. It's always somebody close. It ain't
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: never no outside person broke in the house and did this.
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: And so when that happened, it's somebody that you trusted
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: as a child. I trusted you, and then they speared
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: me into all these different type of martial larws and
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: all this because I had a fear of being vulnerable.
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: It's led us to being violent. We ain't want to
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: be violent, you know what I'm saying. We was good children,
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: But that's you know, that's just the out that's that's
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: like the side effects that come with that. It's like
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: when I see children or women like I just and
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: then come to find out I ain't even gonna say it,
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: but when I talked to somebody else, I was like, man,
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: you spot to protect her. It happened to them too,
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So it's like it made
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: me like over protective of women and children. I had
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: to realize protecting them is creating that space for them
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: to communicate with you, to know what's right from wrong,
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: and communicating with them. See, we're trying to sweep that
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: shit under the rug. Now. We got to communicate with
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: our children.
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: That the album is out.
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: Hold on, I got a few more questions. I can't
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: ask me anything that's crazy. I never thought i'd speak
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: on that well. I spoke about it on a Mike
• 46:38

• 46:41
  Speaker 1: out to Mike Tyson. I loved that brother. We was
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: talking about what made us become so violent and I
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: shared my story with him and he shared a story

  Speaker 1: with me. It was like it would turn me into
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: a monster, and I was like I saw myself in him.

  Speaker 1: At that moment, I was like, I love that man.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: I always was a big fan. I always loved him,
• 46:59

• 50:21
  Speaker 1: No. I was in there. I was on color cold, Okay.
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: I was hustling at the time. This is when I

• 50:29
  Speaker 1: color cold is? You gotta call in and if your
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: color come up, you gotta go piss. So I was
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: in there buying the gloves because I was doing my
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: thing with the gloves so it wouldn't get in my system.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: That's the myth that I heard that don't get in
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: your system if you wear the gloves. And you know,
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: I end up meeting me a little one up in Walmart.

  Speaker 1: I love They got everything you need, that's right. You know.
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: That's one of the DVDs. You remember, they used to
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: have a three pack of DVDs, a six pack of DVDs.
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: I had the lit DVD player. When I used to
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: be in the trap, I shoot over there and grabbing
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: a couple of DVDs. I have my Jenkins, go get it.
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: But it's something about going in there yourself late night
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: in the morning.
• 51:12
  Speaker 5: That's when they used to stay open twenty four hours,
• 51:14
  Speaker 5: especially if you grew up in the country. In the country,
• 51:16
  Speaker 5: probably wasn't nothing is them all?
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: That's right, that's them all. That's right. Yeah, I met
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: a winter like you know, I met a winner in
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: that with the lit Chinese slippers on. You know, they
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: be in there, you know what I'm saying. You know,
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: they got the little steppers walking around and there and
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: stop playing. And you said you got.
• 51:31
  Speaker 5: The Almighty on speed down, and you say, the only
• 51:33
  Speaker 5: way to kill a god is when I called them
• 51:36
  Speaker 5: that's it.
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: Like, my body is my temple. Now A great responsibility
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: to come with looking at your body like your temple.
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: Like that's really what made me stop drinking alcohol. Like
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: at my listening party, I had a glass of apple
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: juice and then I told her the ball ten I had,
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: make me something fruit and make it look like I drink,
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: but make it just taste good and fruity booted. Make
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: me a lit fruity oh the right fair. She's like,
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: oh my god, I love your accent. I say, yeah,
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: but don't put no alcohol in it, you know, but
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: put me a lett flour on that, you know, make
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: it look good. So I had that, and then I
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: had two champagne glasses and apple juice and I was
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: just walking around feeling good like everybody else was feeling good.
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: But you know, when you say your body is your temple,
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: come with a great responsibility. Like sometime when I need clarity,
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: I gotta fast and clean my temple out. So the
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: spirit of the Most, how I can abide in my
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: temple God by the covered by the Highest. They guns
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: hold no power to this holy temple. How you kill
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: a God when a law called them? The only time
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: he goes when a law called him. That's it, Almighty
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: on speed doll. You on a speed doll. I could
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: talk to God before I could call my phone. I
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: could talk to God f I could call you with
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: my phone. You on speed dog, I'm always talking to God.
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: Before I drunk the coffee, I prayed over it. I
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: don't know what they did to the car before they
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: brought it to me. Everything with me is a faith move.
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: I don't have I don't not have security because I'm
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: a tough guy. I don't have security because I walk
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: by faith or not by sight. I pray all the time.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: That's all I got. That's all I got is prayer.
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: If not I be doing a life sentence or dead,
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: I know this, This is a blessing for me to
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: be sitting right here, right now. I'm not supposed to
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: be here, big brother, and I mean that with all
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: due respect. I'm not supposed to be here right now
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: now you're supposed to be. God wants you here right
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: but he got you here to help other brothers without
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: deb You know this is God. This ain't me.
• 53:36
  Speaker 5: You are here to help other brothers here man, and
• 53:38
  Speaker 5: I think the ceremony is going to do a phenomenal job.
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: You know something, You remember when I used to you know,
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: any time I used to drop an album, I used
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: to say things like, if you want to go get it,
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: get it. If you don't want it, don't want that
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: was like that fear of what if it's not good enough?
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: This bitch good enough, go get it? Just the one? Absolutely,
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: like if you're ready to just really just take self
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: accountability and heal, just the one.
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: What do you want to hear? Let's play a joint
• 54:06
  Speaker 3: off down now? Which one?
• 54:09
