• 2:14
  Speaker 4: believe Dre. Doctor Dre was the engineer, and he was like,
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: you got something and that's why to this day, I
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: always you know, show Nature Love is because that was
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: Nature's session. That wasn't my session when I recorded I'm leaving.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: So I went in and Doctor Dre was like I
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: said that to Doctor Dre recently and he was like,
• 2:31

  Speaker 4: Yeah, you're gonna remember my name dra and he laughed
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: at that recently interviewed him in Vegas.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: But yeah, that's how that happened.
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: So like NAS and that record and Big Pun record
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: really set off my solo career. You know, I used
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: to run in Envy's basement, you know what I'm saying.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: But I still wasn't a solo artist. I was a
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: componing no Rijega, you know, even though I was going
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: there solo. But that's what set off my career. So
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: why wasn't it a single?
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Because that is it was I.
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: Was hating man, come on, not just playing you know
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: what's crazy. Like me and I spoke about this recently.
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: That was one of the hottest street records there was, like,
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: and I just, I just I wasn't smart enough to
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: like go out there and do my own video. I wasn't,
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: but I did, you know, I did take the accolades,
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: the accolades that came with it. It changed my life,
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, Like being on a firm
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: project that was Nas Foxy Asy and I caught Mega
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: or Nature, whichever one you want to pick at the time,
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: but that was the hottest group in the world. For
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: me to have a record on that album, it set
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: off my whole career. I got on more questions. I
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: was riding a lot of questions.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: So then I turned it off and then I turned
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: on your first album right now I'm rocking and band
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: from TV comes on right yes, and I'm like the
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: original version that had Cormega on it, Nah, it never
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: had no O Mega. So why was Cormega not on it?
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: In Nature on it? Because at the first Cormegas was with.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Well, me and Mega.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: Me and Mega has always been cool, and Me and
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: Mega are still cool to this day. But what happened
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: was like I told you I invaded Nature session because
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: this is back then.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: I know you guys probably do the coupon deals now,
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: like with the flights, but back in the days, I
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: flew out on a Tuesday.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I had to be there on a Friday, but Tuesday
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: was cheaper. Tuesday was cheaper.
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: I flew out that Tuesday, and I had recorded that Wednesday,
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: but that was Nature's session, so I wanted to repay
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: him back, so I told him to come to an
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: electric lady, and Nature took about ten hours picking beats.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: He was like very very very very particular, and he
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: was actually getting on my nerves. Sorry Nature, but he
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: was actually getting my nerves. And then Swiss changed the
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: beat to one beat and Nature just he wrote the
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: whole rhyme right there and there, and I felt like
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: it was my payback. And then Pun came and you know,
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: you know that Joe says he's a gizzy king. Paul
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: Pun was a glizzy I don't even know.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: The king. They got to say hot dog. No, no, no,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: we're gonna say glizzy.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: Hot dog.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: So he went to Grace for Piet because I don't
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: know if you have a remember Electric Lady. It was
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: the studio Jimmy Hendrick studio, and he got a cat
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: in there.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: So Big Pun saw my car.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: You know, I was the only one with the gs,
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: you know, for for thirty you know, brand new.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: You know I had two of them.
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, come on, Envy notes that
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: you queens get the money for you and uh so, yeah,
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: Pun see my car out and then he was like, yo,
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: you have you had an Electric Lady And he went
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: in and he just laid the verse. I never asked
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: Pun to get on the record. I actually told the
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: engineer to erase it in front of Punk's face.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I was like, it was my friend and he just
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: jumped on my.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: Record and I was just like like, you're not supposed
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: to do that.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: He's supposed to ask permission.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: And then uh Cam, then Cam called me, and Cam
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: happened to be in the city and Cam came so
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: that all all banned from TV happened in real life.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: This is not like, this is not sending the record.
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: You know, if you could pay attention to how people
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: make music now, they send the records so you don't
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: feel I don't get to smell your izzy Miaki. I
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: don't get this to see what watch you got on.
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: I don't get to feel the feeling that you was
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: in when I'm making my uphoria to collab with that.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: That's why our records were better in the nineties. We
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: had to be in the studio with Buster Rhymes, you
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: had to be in the studio with Fat Joe, you
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: had to be in the studio with Jada Kiss. So

• 6:37
  Speaker 4: Only people that we didn't get that day was the Locks.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: And I remember my first time meeting styles p and
• 6:44

  Speaker 4: I'll give styles people keys to my house right now.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: So just don't know.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: But that's how he was back in the days. He
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: was just very like aggressive. His words, just veganis saved
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: his life. I can see the different like I can

• 10:35
  Speaker 4: question is how do I do it? I believe it's
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: all mental. I believe like all this shit and right now,
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: like I'm more conscious, like you know, my my, A
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: person that I look up to is Riza and Rizza
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: you know he drinks saki, right, he drinks a certain
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: type of saki that that gets you up. So that's
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: where I switched to. I switch to saki. It gives
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: you no hangover and wake up in the morning. And
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: I could go out because right now it's like, know,
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: I've lived this life where you know, uh uh, it's
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: a different type of lifestyle.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: But now I fell in love with this.
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: I fell in love with something that don't pay me,
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, And like, you know, everything
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: in life is about money.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: And then when you find that one thing.
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: So uh the New York City Marathon is probably my
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: biggest uh gold.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: And I'm ever like you and and and nothing could
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: make me better but me.

• 12:57
  Speaker 4: like he.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Was crying out like he was. He was he was venting, and.
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: I now own one hundred percent of everything I do.
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. But at certain points, like
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: like so I want to I know this is gonna
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: sound crazy, especially you had Dame Dash up here speaking
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: the opposite.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: But sometimes I want to work for somebody. Being a
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: boss is.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: Hard, bro, But it ain't nothing wrong with that. That's
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: what we were saying.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: You could have multiple jobs and multiple things that wrong.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I love I love, working for love and hip hop.
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: I just didn't give them the throwing a candle and
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: you know, you know, throwing drinks in the figure. I
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: ain't giving no drama, so they we hire me. But
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: I love that If I don't show up for work,
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: then sometimes work don't happen.
• 13:43
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. I don't like being the
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: picture and the ketchup album? Or is it just release
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: singles when you want.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna pay attention to the algorithms.
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: You understand I'm saying, like right now, we like, right now,
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: I can I could an artists could come to drink Champs, right.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: I suppose lu Wayne came and a drink.
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: Chance, I could actually see his algorithms and I could
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: tell him where he could go on tour. I could
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: be like, stop going to Milwaukee, bro, you got two
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: fans of Milwaukee, why are you even there?
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Go to Seattle, Go to Utah, go to Phoenix.
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: Like I can look at the algorithms, I can see
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: exactly like this. This is the time where we should
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: take advantage of having this information. You know what I'm saying.
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: Now we know now, remember remember back in the days
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: used to go on tour. I'm sorry to sound like
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: the old guy, but you know when back of the
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: days you go on tour, you used to go to Delaware.
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: When when your fans are in Philly, big up to Delaware.
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, Big up a Delaware. But yeah,
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: actually used to go to Delaware. Okay, okay, but that
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: was my preference. That's my that was my preference, you
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. But sometimes during the algorithms, just say, Okay, yeah,
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: you know what, after Delaware, you gotta go to Baltimore,
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: skip Virginia or or you know what I mean. But
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: right now you can actually see the algorithms. And I
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: think this is the cheat code. I think it's the
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: che for everybody because I did it for artists recent
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: lead and I was just like, yo, I don't think
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: you should go here here, here, you don't have you
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: don't have no movement there, And I think that I
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: think that artist should take advantage of that. I think
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: a few years ago you had a hit record that
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: joint with Pharrell.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Oh you know, it's crazy.
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: I just I just I just I'm going to see
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: Pharrell in Paris. I don't even know, like I don't
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: even know what me and me and Farrel have nothing
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: in common but music.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: And that sunds how dope music is?
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: Right?
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: Just think about it like you we like if I
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: think of all Pharell rap friends though immediate, they don't
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: have nothing in common with the clips outside of Virginia. No,
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: they got a chick in common. They dressed, they were
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: bell bottoms together. You know what I'm saying, Like, yeah,
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: they You know what I'm saying, like, yeah, they they
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: they Comedie, Me and Pharrell have a beautiful like when
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: we get together, we talk straight music and I love that.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: I first I thought it was awkward, but the elder
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: I get, I was like, Yo, you know what that is?
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: That is? That is dope. You know what I'm saying, Like,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: that's dope.
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: And like I don't get none of this lotuis guitar
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: and ship for free man, Like you know what I'm saying,
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: Like I'm trying to work my anger. I want to
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: meet Bernard although you know what I'm saying, I want
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: to do that, but I'm gonna go out there with
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: him in Paris.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: He got a whole different sound and when he makes
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: a different sound, I usually go out there and I'm
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: a part of that new wave of.
• 16:20
  Speaker 7: Sounds record and did some more music.
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: I like Paris anyway. I like, let's say it's like
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: the manhat fancy saying manhattanough Paris. Let's do.
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: Let's do a Q and A like you do on Dream.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: Let's go. I'm in quick time right now to Jim Jones.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: I mean that's that. I mean, let me tell you something,
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: and I'm gonna say this accurately.
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: I see where Jim Jones is coming from, like I
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: can see him because if you're looking at the algorithms, now,
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: I can see where he's coming from. But you can't
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: take the legendary status that with Ill Madic has done
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: just Ill Maadic ill Matic itself has birthed My Deep,
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: has birthed Component Noriega has birthed Uh so many other
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: people like just that album, and you can't. And that
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: time was the tougher time for you to be noticed.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: So that's the reason why. But I understand where Jim
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: is coming from. I understand his stass. Do you understand
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: that that the kids know him? Now, I'm gonna tell you.
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell you them. I looked up there I
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: looked it up, like I did. I looked it up
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: to see, like, who gets searched more In two tenty
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: twenty five, it's still NOTS. I can't even Numbleus right now,
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: and this is based off Google.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Hold on, I was just.
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: Looking at this shit the other day and it's still
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: NABS by a long shot.
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: It's hard to beat NAS, okay, Streaming wise, NAS has
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: about nine point one million monthly Spotify listeners, while Jim
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Jones clocks in around eight hundred and seventy five thousand.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: And I fuck with Jim music, but that don't forget.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: This is the Google search. This is the Google based searches.
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: NAS gets between two hundred and three hundred thousand searches
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: a month globally.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Jim Jones gets.
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: Forty seventy thousand searches.
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna be honest with you, all right, we all
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: know that that NAHS wins. But listen the fact that
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: we're even having this conversation. That's a win for Jim Jones,
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: and that's what I was saying.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: That's a win. Let me just tell you something.
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: I'm a Floyd Mayweather fan, right I talked about I
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: think he's better than Muhammad Ali. Right, this is me, Right,
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: I get argued people, but whenever Floyd fights somebody that night,
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: they're on the same level as Floyd. So that's the
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: reason why I hate when Floyd taking these exhibition fights.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Because I'm sitting there as a fan.
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: I don't want Jake Paul to touch my favorite fighter,
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: like I don't want I don't want him to have
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: a lucky shot.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: But you don't know, Floyd Mayweb, how do you turn
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: down thirty forty million?
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, exhibition to turn down thirty forty million, but I
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: know to turn But so what my point of trying
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: to say is by us even comparing it, that's a
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: that's a win for Jim Jones. Like I've seen Jim
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: Jones in the beginning, Like I got footage of Jim
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: Jones and Cameron. I was filming a pre to Drink Champs.
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: I have a documentary call well, I still have all
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: the footage.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: And Jim Jones was out. It's on the internet. You
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: could google this. It's it's called what What trailer?
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: And Jim Jones is out and Cam and you're sitting
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: there and Kim Jones like, I don't I don't even
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: spend money on weed.
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: I bout five Nichols with a twenty dollars and you
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: look at that person to the person that he is now,
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: this man won man, just one like that, and I'm
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: talking about you got to take him serious like he
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: was a hype man, a hype man, a person that
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: was back in to where he is now. I think
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: that's an accomplishment. I think that's what we should we
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: should be celebrating. I hate in our culture that we
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: have to compare like me personally, I don't do that
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: on Quick Time with Slime no more. But I was
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: forced to take out uh, Nicki Minaj and Cardi B
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: because people I'm talking about the fans were complaining not
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: their camps.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Their camps were too, but the fans were like, yo,
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: it's it's like both of them. Yeah, and tell truth.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: I like both of them. Like I am a Kendrick
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Lamar fan.
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: Even if you like both of them, you can have
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: a preference.
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right now you.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Feel like if you play Kendrick Lamar, you gotta throw
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: away your Drake CD. That's messed up.
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: I've never been a Drake fan.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Like, even though y'all got a funny relationship.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Right, Like when I'm in the club, I listen to Drake,
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: but if I'm in the car, I could listen to Kendrick.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: That doesn't mean I listen to Drake in the car
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: and I like Kendrick in the club.
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: But you can listen to whatever you want, but you
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: can still like both of them.
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: I like both of them, like I don't like you
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: got purposes and.
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: If I give you two people, it's somebody you probably
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: like more.
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: Yes, of course, of course, But but I do like both,
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: like you know what I'm saying, Like, yes, I like
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: I like pistachio more than I like vanilla exactly. But
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: guess what if you give me up another ice cream
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: and nobody look at I'm gonna eat that.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, I'm not gonna get playing.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: But let me ask you that the quick. Let's go
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: diddy guilty and not guilty.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: God damn, you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna leave
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: that in the You know what I mean. I can
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: tell you this.
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: I got to tell you from my experience, right, you know,
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: you know me and you know each other twenty twenty
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: seven years. There's people who could say, man, I don't.
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: I don't fuck with Envy, right, I can't say that
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: to them, you know what I'm saying. Me and Vy
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: have a separate relationship. All I can say is when
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: I've ever been around and I've been around Christe some time.
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: You know, I got my I'm married. I've been married
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: sixteen years, so maybe I was never really around that.
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: But I've never saw it, you know, I've never saw
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: this monster that they describe. When I hear the testimony,
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: because I got ears and I got Q tips, so.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: I hear it. Some of the ship I'll be like whoa,
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: And then some of it I'm like nah, But I don't.
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: Know you seeing the freaky first I've never seen.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: I really just like you. Every day you go viral

  Speaker 7: When you look back at that.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: We saw it, freaking get ready ready for this. I've
• 21:59

  Speaker 4: Like this is the only time I could post something,
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: somebody would always say something you run it slow. Kanye
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: shit was interesting too though, because it's like you're not
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: responsible for what comes out of Kanye's mouth.
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: You're a platform, you're a host.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but I felt responsible, you know why.
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: When when I found out that George Floyd people's didn't
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: like it, I felt responsible because and by the way,
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: God bless me. I've never said this before, but this
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: parts that we edited it, Like there is actually parts
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: that we did edit, Like he compared I said, he
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: compared George Floyd to Martin Luther King hmm and and
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: and he was.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Like, what's the difference between George Floyd and Martin Luther King?
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: And we were all like we've been at that time,
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: so we were thrown off, like what And he was
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: like Martin Luther King had bitches and.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: We were like, oh shit, we knew that had to
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: be edited right there, like we were like, oh no,
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: and so we were paying attention to the parts that
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: we weren't paying attention.
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: To everything, like you know what I mean. So and
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: and he had got me, he had he had called me.
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: I don't want to like like blame it all on him,
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: because that's you know, it was. It was a collective.
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: It just didn't I just didn't know what I didn't
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: know how to edit at that time.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: We spoke. We spoke.
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: We since then we spoke like five six times. Then
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: it disappeared, and so did he have not spoken to him.
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: So I'm gonna do a documentary my two years with Kanye,
• 28:38
  Speaker 4: because I had two years. I just like I thought
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: he I thought he was listening to me at one point.
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: He's actually married to advice, and I was I felt obligated.
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: I was like I was going downstairs.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: I was going I was.
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: Walking away from my wife because I didn't even want
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: my hunter know that I was giving wife advice and
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: married to advice. And then he would listen to me
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: and then he'd just tweet away right after, and I
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: was like you too a little bit, you know, he
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: ain't sugar me, I don't.
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: I never took it like that.
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: After you apologize, he.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: Said, no, he's a good guy. He said, no, he's
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: a good guy. That I didn't because I have to
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: tell you the truth. I understood media, but I only
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: understood the good side of media at that time. Like
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: when I come to the breakfast club and I go
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: to Canada, people will be like your breakfast club, like
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: it's positive, you know what I'm saying. So this was
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: my this is my this is my turn of saying,
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: you know what, it ain't all guts and glary, like
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: sometimes you gotta go outside and take the gum under
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: the table and then put put the gum under the
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: table in your mouth and motherfucker.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: Maybe that was maybe, but you know what I'm saying.
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you gotta stuff.
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: Sometimes you gotta scuff your timsisis you know what I'm saying.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: And that's that's that's that's that's.
• 29:46
  Speaker 6: Pretty much what's your edit process like now after that,
• 29:50
  Speaker 6: because it was lawsuits and everything his way after that
• 29:54
  Speaker 6: whole ship.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, indeed it's still done after that. You know, it
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: was crazy.
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: I want to big up to to unlikely people who
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: called me during that time, like Shaq called me, and
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: you know, Shaq, he's mad calm when he talks you,
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: all right.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, he's like I got you.
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: And I was like, damn, you know, even if he
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: was even if he was front and that ship made
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: me feel good for real called me. And then then
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: yay he called me and I was like, yo, y
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: hey man, I feel like I'm about to lose everything.
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: And he was like interesting, that's what he said, said bro,
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: And that's.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Pretty much it. So we had to shake it off.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: And another part of that was my Jewish friends.
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: You know. I had Rabbi's coming at me like hey man,
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: I want to come on the show, and I was
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: just like, I don't know if I go that far.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: But it was just crazy. It was just crazy.
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: And then he doubled down on it, like attention is
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: attention is is crazy. So he doubled down on it,
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: and I don't know, I don't know what if he
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: called back. I think I think I accept on Drink
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: Champs again. I'll just be more responsible and I won't
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: drink a bigie.
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: Yeah what business wise for Drink Chaps because you got
• 31:09
  Speaker 6: the network now, Yeah, I remember it was an early
• 31:11
  Speaker 6: episode where you were talking about how you learned that
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: the audio in the video could be sold separately.
• 31:15
  Speaker 7: Right now with the network, you're doing that for other people.
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: So business wise, like where does norristen as a businessman
• 31:20
  Speaker 6: giving people advice on things like that?
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: Well?
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: Absolutely that that was something that that I noticed immediately.
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: You know, Gods, God bless the dead, colmbat Jack Combat Jack.
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: I was noticing when I when I when I first
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: because they were doing podcasts, but I don't think they
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: were calling it podcast right, podcast? Okay, so a lot
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: of people give a Sipher Stiles in Rosenberg and they
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: were they were official I believe hip hop's first podcast.
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: But I was noticing when I was looking at certain people,
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: like they would throw our episodes and the episodes.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Would be on what was that, what was that network?
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: SoundCloud or whatever.
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: The audio it will be there, but then the YouTube
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: would be a kid that ripped the audio and just
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: put it up there. But it would be the kids YouTube,
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: but it's their episode. So I would sit back and
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: I would be like, why are they allowing that to
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: do it?
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: That's happened to the Breakfast Love for years.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: I didn't know that. I didn't know that. I know
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: that happened to us for two weeks and I shut
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: that ship down. How oh well, it.
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: Was different because we used to put we was always
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: putting video up right, but they would rip the video
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: and like it would go. You know, I didn't mind
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: because it was like promo. Yeah, but they would definitely
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: do that on YouTube. There was somebody making a bunch
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: of money years a couple of years.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so I noticed that.
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: I noticed that, and then it was like anything subscription based,
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: you know, I got a resource from but anything subscription
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: base is not in competition with leanyard, it's not in
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: competition with television, and it's not in competition with YouTube.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: So I made a genius deal a couple of years ago.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: A lot of people didn't like it.
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: But I had Massive, which is nas label handling the audio.
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: I had Title, which is jay Z's on a subscription level,
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: and then I had Revolt on a television level, and
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: everyone thought I was doing some funny ship. This was legit,
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: this was I mean, they didn't want to share with
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: each other. I made made them black excellence. No no, no, no,
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: you say black excellence. We're gonna let it ship out
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: and we did it.
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: We had, we had. It was a it was a
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: great time, you know what I mean. Yeah, So I
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: feel like, you know, still.
• 33:38

• 33:53
  Speaker 4: they didn't miss a beat man. They stepped up, you know,
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: all of the people. They stepped up. I see they
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: got a deal with AM picked that up. I've been
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: telling Cam to come over here for a minute. And
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: so I'm glad, like and they got Brandon Marshall a
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: sports show. They they're they're really trying to compete with
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: the Elite network. So I'm I got their back, you
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: know what I mean.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: And so I'm it.
• 34:17
  Speaker 5: Why did a woman get mad at you for ordering
• 34:18
  Speaker 5: the whole bottle of wine?
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: Oh you want to talk about that? You know?
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, Well I got the nine one
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: one call. I should play this ship, right, I got
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: she called she called the police on me. But we
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: were we were sitting in Houston's in Miami, right in Miami, and.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: It got busy.
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: You know, I've never had these since I had the braids,
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: I know, MV hating because he can't grow here.
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: I definitely could grow hate that man.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: I couldn't just my brain would be in the middle
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: of my back.
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: Well, so I believe she was trying to flip the table,
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: and you know, I go to Houston's flip the table,
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: flip the table, you know, like you know, get to
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: somebody else, because we were finished eating and it was
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: just another bottle of one and then they were like, uh,
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: you know they placeally trying to flip the tape our
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: own two juice bars, so I know, when it gets crowded.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: Table for people that don't know, we try to get
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: you out to get another customer.
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: To get another customer on there. We finished our meal
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: enough to finish our meal, so we just had an extra.
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: So the lady was like, we're not going to Audero
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: another bottle. So we was like all right, cool boom
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: and we stood there.
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: So you tried to buy another bottle?
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: She said, yo, yeah.
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: So they went and got the manager and the manager
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: took the actual bottle that was there and was like, yo,
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: I comped it.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: I was like, I don't need you to comp nothing
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: for me, you know what I mean, And she took
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: it away.
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: And this was the most racist thing I've ever so
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: now that that's being racist in itself, right, But I
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: was privileged to call for the nine on one call
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: because she said, I'm calling the police, and I paid taxes. Bro,
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: I'm legit, I'm legit for twenty seven years. This here
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: fooled you, ma'am. You know what I'm saying.
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: So she called the police. I stood there like a
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: man that I am.
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: The police came and the police one of the officers said,
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: this is two bottles?
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: Is this something else going on?
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: Like he must have thought that this was a secret,
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: like something that like like maybe I was messing with
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: her or something on the side, cause he's like, people
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: don't do this, they don't call the police. He's like,
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: in fact, the party don't even start to three bottles.
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: And I'm like, I didn't even get to the three.
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: This is the police officer. So if I was beligately
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: enough anything, do you know what happens when you call
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: a police officer on a black man in America?
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: That woman tried to get me killed. She said, I'm
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: in fear of my life, that's what she said.
• 36:43
  Speaker 4: Damn. Like I went to therapy, like I'm going to
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: therapy right now for this, you know what I'm saying,
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: like like traumatized, yo, Like what if what if these
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: officers had a bad day and they came and they
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: just just I was I was. I spoke very calm,
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: I stood my ground, but I'm still like I'm traumatized
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: from this, like like I got called the police on
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: guns out, she said.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: She She said on a nine one one call that
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: she felt threatened for her life because I ordered a bottle.
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: Like I wasn't partying, I wasn't on the table, I
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: wasn't really I wasn't doing none of that. Like I
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: was actually celebrating, like you know, I was just chilling,
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: like that's how I celebrate. And I'm traumatized. I don't
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: want to go in that area. I don't want to
• 37:30
  Speaker 4: go in that area. Like I'll go all around and
• 37:33
  Speaker 4: and like to tell you the truth, like I said,
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: one of the one of the black cops. It was
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: two black cops that was there. So as I was
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: describing it, the two black cops to the side, they
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: one the head guy was a white guy and the
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: guy under him was a Spanish guy. But you just
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: seen the two black brothers as I was like saying it.
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: You just see their head down, like damn, you still
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: got to go through it. You could make it to
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: a level in life, and you still got to go
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: through regular, regular, regular stuff, you know what I'm saying.
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: So that it really really really really really hurt me.
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: It really put me in there, and I just got
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: back to it again. I think, you know, me running, me,
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: running to get my mind over that, you know what
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: I'm saying. And now you know, we just ran with
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: Angela Simmons and we didn't have a permit and the
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: police pulled over and I was like, god, damn, there Ran.
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: I was like, holy shit, I forget, like hoh, because
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: it's just it's just no, I mean the film, the film,
• 38:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, so yeah, but that was a
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: horrible situation. You know, You've had success in two erarors, right,
• 38:32
  Speaker 4: had the success in music classic nineties in the podcast
• 38:36
  Speaker 4: game which Hustle taught you more about survival the music
• 38:40
  Speaker 4: industry of the media world.
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: Now, Reggae Throne taught me more.
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: Reggae Throne was at the time when I entered Reggae Throne,
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: I was asking artists for their publishing, like you know,
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: to like doing records with them and giving them publishing
• 38:54
  Speaker 4: and they didn't. They didn't know what publishing was at
• 38:56
  Speaker 4: that time. Now they they're very smart, they're very up
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: to date now. But back then I felt I felt horrible,
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: like seeing how they were conducting business and seeing like
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: like like like like like. For instance, like Fabulous doesn't
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: have to get along with styles P, right, but if
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: Fabulous and styles P does a tour, Fabulous and styles
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: people show up every single day, styles would be on
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: his side of the thing.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: I didn't see that in Reggae Thro.
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: I'm not I'm not saying that they don't do that now,
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: but back then, Donald Marr would not do a show
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: with Daddy Yankee. Daddy Yankee wouldn't do a show with
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: what I'm gonna give you an example. I'm not saying
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: the exact thing, but he wouldn't do a show with
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: Winston and yan Dale. I'm talking about back then, and
• 39:32
  Speaker 4: I'm not saying this is the case. I'll just give
• 39:34
