The Seas came to hang out with us and we forced the couch.

I said, fuck guy, let's get seasoned in these two legendary We got to get him up here.

But we was just listening to.

New marb D right, and Prodigy sounds so good on it.

I literally, I literally, I don't work hard enough to do this, but I literally thought of making the album in case if I died, No doubt it.

Just say, you know, ten.

Years after I died, putting my will New Fat Joe album and they could do whoever want to do the beats to the ship, this, this, that, and imagine a fresh after you die ten years later, New Fat Joe talking shit on there?

You know that shit that.

I mean.

Look, we've listening to New mar D.

They got it.

I'm coming out with Prodigy, got man new verses and it sounds great too.

It sounds good too, like you know, it don't sound like nothing changed.

It don't sound like that sweat.

But I mean songs you got like that.

I'm sure you got verses you got for them to release, Your family gonna get the money.

Well you dying.

That's how I look at it, you know what I mean?

Like I wish b I did more of that, you know what I'm saying.

But B I was too much young, writing songs for other ships.

He was writing Junior Mafia songs, him songs, was writing puff songs.

He was you know, so he did a lot of albums at one expand you know like that like you so you wish.

You have no crazy To me, I've been hearing a lot of like Foxy Brown is the best.

You know.

Foxy Brown's first feature was I Shot You with lu Me Keith Berriet.

I remember Baa keeping them.

I already knew this girl was crazy dumb.

But rumor has it all of her verses, either Jay Row or Nosro.

So this is like, is it true or not?

I mean, I'm not let me say it.

Like this right his own botto man, when even what it was, he goes every time every time I hear Foxy Brown, of course that's the cadence and everything.

I'm not saying nothing wrong with it.

I'm just saying that when you'll bring these up when when there right already I'm gonna.

Go with that.

I want to hear because I did we get here.

No, I'm not doing that.

I'm not really not doing I'm just a guess.

I don't think this.

I don't think I'm saying nothing wrong, nothing right here.

I think he shs left that lost, so let's leave it alone.

She said, your big role for junior Manfia Big wrote for little Kim, and you.

Just went all the way to park Slope.

That's not I'm never picking on Foxy.

I'm not I'm not doing that.

So also Foxy says she wrote her own ship.

She's saying, we don't know what she said.

I don't know that you.

I don't know.

No, I'm not trying to start.

Listen, let me just say for me, stay out said something.

You say, you got some right there remains son Okay on the podcast.

Kids and will be held in g So I fucked you saying because I said you got that right?

Yes, if you can't you that Joe.

Now, I'm where's my flying Casey?

Didn't you just put it?

You just do?

You just do the alley?

You know, I didn't think.

I don't think there's nothing wrong with If you know you think what I'm saying is blasphemy.

I think what I'm saying ain't nothing wrong.

I don't know if it's true or not.

That's what I always heard.

Somebody said first.

Somebody wrote on the two people wrote all of your verses you be ready to fucking kill.

That ain't regular people, it's Jay z or Nottill.

Okay, sorry for around you right your own.

I didn't know that for years.

I'm in the eris.

I ain't gonna knowing.

Up.

Okay, I'm gonna keep it right.

Here in the study we there though, as an artist, for me, I have songs written that BIGI wrote for me.

That's the big past.

I started to write my own round, That's what I'm saying.

So sometimes a history like that can change.

You can start out as somebody kind of introducing you or bringing you into something, and once you figure it out, you could kind of take your you know, your own anth like.

But that's how I was brought up into it.

I was a I was a situation.

I was an opportunity, a business deal.

No big say hey, they said, you rock it with me, a little bro.

You know what, I'm gonna do something even better for you.

I'm gonna I'm gonna make sure you get right, and I'm gonna write.

I'm gonna write you some songs now instead of you hype me in it for me now now here you go and then from there.

I expected him to pass at that time and for things to happen.

But I had to, you know, let me figure it out from here now.

And i'd be very generous, no doubt.

Super she shine that light on say even the word he no fucking songs they got, you know, said like no, man, my I used to love it, like the law sens familia let me feel uh the ultimate rush trucks baby, but she got not to say nothing outside of that.

Him came in as a writer before all that.

But you know, when you got a team of people, everybody just kind of worked together.

That's how I came up into it, you know, going up around that bad boy error.

You know, it's writers, you got called, you got Faith, you got all these different people in there, lots maces people in there.

It's just energy going around.

I've just seeing you super tight with Faith for the last couple of years.

You was always tight with her like that.

It just wasn't no Instagram, right yeah, yeah, yeah, you know I see it on Instagram.

Ain't nothing changed.

It's been like that shout out to fake like that.

That's that's that's because they's just for real, like in real life.

Like yeah, you know, I can't call her underrated because she's a superstarted, superstar, but how vocals are still underrated no doubt.

Like I went to a Comporter's funeral and Faith sung in there, and I was just she's am kwan wedding and we were just all there.

You never see there our songs in the funeral.

She just was singing like the gospel or whatever.

And I was just like, oh my god.

I always knew she was incredible, But that day, I mean, you know, I was brought to a different emotion.

Boh, so we got little cs.

Little C's crippled me?

Why would why would Biggie say.

That he crimpled?

You know, what's the problem with this guy?

He don't real lives.

We're telling the story to millions of people out there because he know the story.

He think everybody know the story.

I don't know the story.

You do know all of ship that.

I do know the story.

But I want you to tell people why.

No ship ship?

I don't know why?

Why big he said that that yeah, and the ones we crashed.

You was driving he was trippled seas was you high?

No?

It was a jug that ice.

We had a fucked up car.

N that wasn't a link.

We the lex Land had got fucked up the day before that.

We got arrested the day before that.

Somebody don't know, you hit somebody with a bat, right they y'all hit somebody.

Big, big guy locked up for hitting somebody with a bat.

I wasn't that incident.

But we was in the back of Brooklyn meet him and money l you know what I'm saying, and uh, we were smoking and just so happened.

Police just happened to pull up around there and we put the weed out soon as they like full up, you know what I'm saying.

So they they locked you up for we yeah, just a blunt this is, but we're talking about like a long.

Time ago type of shot down.

When they locked you up blunt.

They took us to the precinct really just put us in there, took our name down whatever, and we came back outside the Lexus land wasn't working.

Son came and picked us up, took us to the crib and then we went to get a loaner's car from the Lexus deller please, and they gave us the Lumina van and and.

Aluminivat rode to be on the line too.

This is.

They gave us a lumin event and I was like, you be on this ain't no Lexus car.

And we had a he like your chill.

We just call a low ride.

Were chilling and uh, I just made one turn because the brakes was all fucked up.

That ship was already like rubbing on the roaders and ship we had a it was the car they run around.

They give you the bullshit car.

Yeah, and he wanted to ride in that.

And we rolled and I hit a little spin and don't and we went across the ship and we crashed, Yeah, across the ship.

On the other side.

That north and south did divide us.

So north very day north, and that ship the car went south.

We were on the other side.

Man right into a rail and that was it, he said, strongly.

Rip to lose yo.

Listen.

You know.

One thing I learned from Big right was people always like to say that if you become successful, you changed.

Now we know now enough that we're old enough to know that you gotta have growth.

You can't be thinking like you thought twenty years ago, thirty years ago.

That's natural growth.

But I'm not talking about growth.

I'm talking about if you blow off or some of your guys in your hood are looking at you like you changed with They don't know if you change right, you just working whatever.

And I got this famous story.

I think you was there and my second album had came out, and I ain't Ceebi in the wild because because to this day, the closest thing I could call to like Biggie is maybe Cardi B.

Meaning her success of how she just went fast, like wow, five year it was number one, two and three.

It's like out, that's a fact.

Now I'm with him with an army fatigue, and he was like, Yo, you coming show tonight.

I went to the show.

He had fucking gators on and salmon suits with like this ship.

Was like I'm sitting there in the passenger seat watching this ship.

I'm like, Yo, this is fucking nuts.

Nigga just shot up one, two and three.

I never seem Yeah, but I never seen that again.

I never seen it.

And then to maybe Cardi B.

How she was just on love and hip hop.

Next thing, you know, she's out of the world at the squirrel right vol You see what I'm saying.

That's what Biggie did to me.

I mean you not with Biggie.

He got a fucking army fatigue.

He said, come and show tonight, give me the tickets.

I come and show.

Niggas got a fur coat over salmon ship with gators.

It was like, Yo, what who the fuck is this?

How fast it changed?

Though?

Like for real?

Am I not lying?

It's like I'm like, yo, what the fuck?

Like his kids, I'm.

Happy because young is doing that ship like really, like you know, like I was wearing this shit at fifteen, doing that type of ship, and like, really, how could niggas can't say nothing to me which you're doing or everybody I done did it already.

When I was fourteen.

That's crazy like that.

That's why I could sit back right now and just like man, I was selling my balcony in Miami, sitting my crib and just chilling SAMs.

You know what I'm saying, and chilling kat is at fourteen.

Man, you have no gators when you were fourteen.

I'm the first time.

Hold on, hold on, hold he right, He's right, because you know I like the brag.

Nope, the method I was at fourteen, unless that was at Riverse, I had the med I just wanted to hear you say it.

Nah, I did have dapping down at fourteen.

You can act stamping.

Damn, we should bring him on the show.

But what I am going to say to you.

Is the first time I did get dated.

I had five thousand dollars in my bank account.

It was steeped.

On the of his wedding.

I go to God five thousand and one and I said, Yo, I need that biggie shit.

Man, I need that movie.

He was like, you want that shit?

I said yeah, he said what I said, Scott Blue.

He said, I'm gonna make you the hat.

I'm ana diet like the suit.

I'm gonna get you to get this.

That nigga might to four thousand and nine, one hundred and fifty dollars for me.

I never paid that much for anything.

I went broke behind the sky blue suit and the Gators.

I could not I could not even believe it.

You know what happened that night?

You They had a fucking wyot.

They had a fight and I got blood all over this.

I couldn't never wore the suit again.

It was like forty nine, one hundred and five hundred.

The guy told me that joke dollar to day he called me up started life.

Remember you wanted that biggie shit, right.

I was like, yo, God, you took my last nigga for the shop, Like, are you that.

That's why I made me lose wait a little.

He was smoking nigga.

They was driving.

I used to go to d like they driving.

Give me a lice, give me a call with a license.

He's talking to the mad little niggas over there, and there were supposed to be driving.

But niggas was rich, Bro, they were still small driving.

Man.

I'm looking at that niggas my side.

We come to the studio every day.

I see him every day.

You coming down yourself.

He just signed I'm coming there with b I.

I want to drive you coming in there with B I and John Branson.

He's to a Lexus Land Bro.

I was there.

I was there this week.

I stand up in cars back then, I should stand up in the WHEB and the m p V.

I can stand up in it.

Yeah, you could stand up, stand up in one.

I didn't realize he was that young, Like, yeah, that's all I know.

He was young, But I ain't making him a.

Guy.

They committed a crime.

You know what he did.

He blew his wolfers off as a little kid.

You see what I'm saying.

You thought he was a small grown man.

He was a little kid.

He was drinking his weed all yeah, in school.

Yeah, let me tell you something.

I'm outside you.

I'm not talking no bullshit, but damn, I was about to tell your story.

But it's fun.

I like I is moving.

It was a little guy, a little guy.

Listen, there's a little.

Guy, not the long guys.

That was really guy.

That know what me?

I saw that as that is the fact they would have called me cat for everything.

Let me tell you, get me mad.

It's a little bigger.

It's like the big t s.

I proved it, my nigga, fe no, I prove you love you?

Did you did?

I know what?

I know why happened when America's most wanted the guy called you up?

When I thought the guy on America's most wanted that what happened cool?

The cool?

What it really happened?

And he appreciated you for not saying his name because there's no statue of limit.

Some I'm showing to imagine being a rapper, you gotta go fight a guy on America smokes wanted one on one and he's cocked DS.

Can you pull up?

You know how much courage that takes for a fucking rapper.

Imagine that guy would have wh this shit out of me.

They would have been talking about me to this day.

Yo, Remember what Joe got washed?

Dragged out there?

This, this, that.

But the moral to the story is when the BMF, When BMF like BMF.

I'm in Miami, okay and lean backs number one.

We're disgusted with the paper.

Every club you go to, you see twenty guys, thirty guys with TS chains all over, Cadillac trucks all over this beast.

This ship was out of control, right, So if you came to Miami, you knew you knew that.

When you came to Miami, you look up any given day, they in there deep, right.

So every night I'm going to the club, I see this little kid, he's twelve years old.

I'm gonna say his name now, is with some mother wild shit going on there's got nothing to.

Do with what we're talking about.

But the kid pee wee that allegedly, you know they talking about with the little Wayne Bus or whatever.

I knew him twelve years old.

I would come to the club.

He'd be with BMF every day with two million dollars in diamonds.

Little baby like little C's might have had him.

He ain't no rapper.

So every day I come in like, yo, crack, you give me in the club.

Give me, I say, yo, bro, I can't get you.

If fucking big meats and the niggas can't get you in the.

Club, I think I ain't even blowing out the bottles they buying every Yo, bro, I can't get you in.

But he was a cool little kid.

He would come all the time.

But one day I looked at him right and I said, one day because I took him for granted, And one day I'll never forget.

I was over there in that club where where we said Cali used to d and yesterday he was crossed the shoe I pull up in the phantom, he said, Yo, he cracked And then for some reason, my eyes.

You know how you go to the eye doctor and your shit fuzz out and go clear.

And my shit funched out and went clear.

And I looked at them fucking diamonds on his neck and he's in the stay in the party.

He's in the middle of the street by himself.

I'm like, Yo, this kid is like twelve years old and like two million diamonds on.

I was like, Yo, No, he ain't scared.

Nobody's looking at him, nobody's this that's a true story.

That might be the youngest guy ever seen with some shit on like that.

He was everywhere he was with them.

What the fuck was he doing with them?

He was twelve years old.

Everywhere they went.

He used to be with a and he used to be with Floyd too.

Oh I didn't know that, so he'd been outside, you know what I'm saying.

A lot of histories like that.

You get like, you know he was he was outshot seven man.

Knocked it out.

Yo, I did not know this shit.

I'm listen thinking was a superstar before me.

I didn't know this shit exists.

I'm sitting up in there and I'm like, Yo, what the this is what it's like when you number one, two and three.

I'm fat Joe with the fucking army fatig stick.

I'm sitting there, I'm like, Yo, this is.

Yo.

Ses I did not believe it.

That's that's I could.

I would just and they just kept coming, like yo, this Faith calls up right, puts in it.

Is not it's a cool story.

She calls up.

He he puts on the speaker right, so he's laughing.

You know, he's a committed you fat motherfucker.

You this this that I know you in there, you with the ugly bitches, this and this and this is when I knew.

Biggy said, hold up, why they gotta be ugly bitches?

They could be models.

Yo.

I wanted one night and I couldn't take it, yo, yo yo sees, I couldn't take you season.

I'm like, yo, you know, I thought he was like a superhero to me when I was with him, and shit, i've seen his successful.

What I'm saying would never changing, right, So I he just exploded.

So imagine you hanging out with a dude and the next thing you know, he's the biggest superstar on the planet Earth.

I don't see him for a couple of months.

I put out my second album.

I'm going to some shit maybe Billboard magazine or something like that, all the vibe, and I just see a bunch of people around the truck.

And as I get closer, I see b I G, I see U, I see Little Kim, and I'm like.

Oh shit, that's big.

And you know what Fat Joe did.

Fat Joe, I'm embarrassed to tell you about for that split second my mind, you cronable.

I'm telling you the truth.

And that in my mind he became up to superstar.

Said all that Nigga must have changed.

And right when I get to turn away, you know how people say people change, he.

Was like, yo, crack, Joe crack.

So I look at him as big so I walk over there.

He starts telling Little Kim and sees, Yo, we've been bumping this album right, you like it?

He said, Yo, you stepped your shit up.

And I was like, that taught me.

That was such a life lesson.

That taught me, like, don't assume people change.

They could still be the same people.

No matter what success it is.

It'd be your perspective of people that without judging.

He you know, you know rights, he one thing about my nigga, Like outside of all the street ship, he was a fan of the music.

Right, So if you really was dope, that's all he cared about.

You.

Don't give a fuck what you did outside.

He ain't gotta be that real nigga.

That nigga nothing you can rack.

He fucks with you.

That's it.

Let me ask you some social from this underground rapper.

We see videos of him rhyming in the Brooklyn with the mic recipes.

Mister c Ship he's doing Clark Kent Clark forty Gold Bros.

The Old Gold Brothers o G Bros.

G Yeah, Big First DJ was fifty grand.

He had a crew called the O G B The Old Gold Brothers.

So he just passed away like three years ago him, mister C and DJ clark Kin, so.

He was So what I'm trying to understand is, so he's this underground battle rapper.

Because when I met Biggie Biggie, I was in the lyricist lounds giving out the flow Joe Vinyl to the DJ, and he went up there and back to ten.

They're gonna say, yo, Joe, I'm saying ten, so it don't sound cap.

He taught the ball down.

He had a backpack on it.

Puff was on stage doing the Puff dance and hyped up this this this, I'm looking at the cross said, oh this vibe, He's gonna be pig.

Right, So we became cool.

What I'm saying is when he started making these records like Wrapping to Juice, he and all that was that a Puff bringing the R and B to it?

Or was it Big saying I want to do these kind of records.

He didn't want to do that.

You know that that was all Puff?

Thank God?

I mean, what's out question?

Nobody he listened to her, So originally he didn't want Because I believe that changed, well I don't believe, I know that changed the whole hip hop game.

Like to this day, Fat Joe's catch one of them What's love or this?

Everybody you and she was a model four year that's all that formula, right.

We flipped those ship and we had singing the hooks.

We're R and B singers and all that.

You know what I'm saying.

That was a big thing.

So it was like Puff broke those beats to the table.

That was straight his.

He probably got to be because he knew he had somebody that was like the dopest right in the world.

Though that's my I'm favorite rapper, right, So.

Imagine you in the position the power of you could sit behind the desk and you got the top from Jordan, player of this league, and you could tell him to do anything, play point guard, play shooting guard, play forward, play center.

Yeah, big did everything.

Cadence Kaden those yours.

If you want to talk about anything that compared the rap I think he's the one that covered every ground of how you want to do it in the most such a prefection way in the shortest span like that.

We only had three years though he came out in ninety four.

In ninety seven, we ain't get a chance to enjoy nothing, but he did though he he no, I've been doing that for Junior Mafia on Earth.

No, no, no here.

Hey.

He paved the way for everybody.

Fucked you Big to show this.

Everybody like on the hip hop culture, whether you know it or not, you was influenced by the B I G.

The B I G.

Listen though, that's a load of grave with me, nigga, I'm nigga, would call.

Me bias or whatever.

No, listen, that man, nothing nothing.

I just up there.

That's wias too.

That's so now they're gonna tell my man nothing.

You know, I'm biased too.

He ain't get here to have twenty thirty year run like anybody else did.

But if I'm biased too, and he sounds, he will be smoking everything right now.

He was here, everything that he left would still be here right now.

So me, as a fan from outside, similar to this guy.

And I'm not just saying because then I'm tired of this guy.

Right here's my business partner.

But I'm tired of business my brother, I hear you listen, Yeah, but he's very similar right with Big.

Every verse he would drop, whether it's on one twelve, whether it's with y'all, whether he's with every He never had a whack verse ever, don't doubt, and you would hear this shit and every time he pulled out a new verse, we'd be like, you know what he's saying.

Now, you know kiss got that impact too.

That's why TOPDD did or lie of it.

But like a statement he made, he created that for him sauce.

He is that top five that are alive.

He is that.

But outside of being that, he's a top five realist nigga in the world.

Come to my hood, come sit there, got pictures with my mom.

I performed as uncle parties and shit, you know I performed at his daughter sweet sixteen.

He come to my hood every day and come hang out with me there on my birthday, my mother birthday, sister's birthday.

Niggas see my little nephew.

Give my little nephew a couple of dollars play basketball Like no, he's a That's what makes you that too, outside of rapper, So about how you carry yourself.

You know what I'm saying, ain't got to be the best ship in the world lyrically, but you could.

That makes you that too.

About how you carry yourself, how you maintain, how you keep you un segregated.

Your mortals is about everything, you know what I'm saying.

So I was out of that.

I appreciate that, man, It's my god.

It was very nice gesture.

Teell me me and his mom's got the same name, his mom's and mama.

You know what I'm saying, Like, how coincidental was that?

Here?

Geminal?

Like my boy?

I see y'all be tight for years?

Yeah, try to I've seen a lot of people turn their back on them.

I didn't not then untirely demise it be I you know what I mean.

You know Zoe's three sides of that everage story.

But if people Yeah, how you talk about me and Big and y'all getting tight and all that?

And how how can you say big as your man and then ship on the lead.

You know what I mean?

You talking to the world guy.

No not so I'm in an exam.

I've kept it one thousand percent with them, seems little Kim, all of them.

I never understood how little Kim had beef and dudes wasn't standing by her side and all that.

I never understood it because the way I've only seen little Seats and little Kim is with biggiest smalls.

Now, if Biggie Spoils is King of New York, he's Frank White And I used to see it's the same ship.

Yo.

Let me tell you something.

I'm not comparing the apples and oranges with the same thing with Krun Punn to come.

And when he was rapping, nobody want to rap next to him, Nobody want to smoke with him, Nobody want to cipher with him.

Nobody wanted this, nobody wanted that.

And then he died.

Nobody want to mention him.

No top five, no top ten, no nothing.

But when he was here, y'all was scared of death for him.

When he was doing lyrics.

Now for your dudes, I I remember pun calling me damn near crime.

They won't let me upstairs to the how ninety seven used to put people on sighther.

Everybody upstairs was like, no, they doing the cipher.

He's calling the hotline from flex.

I don't want to say.

The rappers up there, they were like, no, do not let him upstairs.

They did not want him to come up in there.

Then in the middle, but he passed.

He pretty much If it ain't for us, we can't defend his legacy, You guys, seemed to not mention how nice he was.

Right, So it's the same thing.

When I met you and I met Little Kim.

I'm like, yo, I'm out with the King, Like how could I let somebody Bolley huh or Caesar or anything like that?

Like I'm not fake.

You know what I'm saying.

I'm not gonna be yo, big this is your man.

Then when when something happened to him, I switch.

Up on you.

You know what I'm saying, shout out to all his moms.

I felt like we lost moms hip hop, at least New York.

I see that.

Mama, my girl.

I can't even tell the stories, but you know they always say a lot.

But you know the loved You know, you know that too much.

You know well she loved.

She showed you.

It was on her grand kissls on her if she don't rock.

With your s two days.

But that's the luck of your past, not the day she passed.

The day before she was talking about me to Wayne Burrows and and Homegirl.

She called me and.

Was like, y'all, Mama Wallace was just asking about you this and this and that and talk about you a good guy.

I love Mama Wallace.

I just felt like she was the mom of hip hop.

And that's how I felt.

That's that, you know what I'm saying.

And so did things the right way.

She did it the right way, and you know, she made sure everything was set up like like really like she took over with big left for hand.

She really took it over and put it in perspective.

Man, you know what I'm saying.

His kids is super straight, That's what and that's what mattered, right, and so we care you are still able to take care of his family, maybe after thirty years, the year they were from the grave, still make sure his kids straight to even to this day his mom was left.

He made sure.

That's crazy, what's good and that's and that's something.

You say on the generation of well, you know what I'm saying, that's what we're talking about generational wealth is I mean, I always felt like, you know, look, I don't wish you nothing on me, but I always felt like, still my point is I didn't know, yeah, you know, this guy has your clever.

The point is I always felt like I would be happy if if self God for being happened to me and my family was straight.

You know what I'm saying, like that's the big That's what it is.

You know what I'm saying.

You see these mafia dudes, they're born up in crime and they no sooner or later somebody's either gonna knock them off or they going to jail forever.

But their family is straight in the mansion forever.

They own the fucking construction businesses.

And this they kid.

You just basically it's like you a warrior with a shielding and the fucking sword, and you go out there to make sure them kids are straight forever.

Yeah, same thing with you, same thing with me.

That's that's the dream.

Biggie actually did it.

That's fucking amazing.

Thirty years later he's still taking kids family, and that's you know what I mean.

Like and but you see that generational type of thing, and and us peers from our era, like you see that in you you see.

Yeah, that was our era.

We appreciate stuff like that, like making sure our kids are straight.

We don't want our kids to or niece's nephews to grow up and go through the ship that we actually went through.

Like now, I don't want them to go to no tunnel.

I don't I don' want.

My nephew, do that, go play basketball, Go do that tunnel, Master Square Garden, you know, go through that tunnel in the Barclays Like I went through that tunnel before that.

I was a tunnel when we was really outside.

But when you get to you know, to see his kids do that, they had to grow up like how I grew up.

So I go on vacations with them, like we go on trip.

You don't.

We don't go to the block.

Rush, We don't go to the block.

We don't go to the hood.

When I be hanging out with his kids.

He's no like when Big, you know, in the middle of all that beef from Big was going there.

I don't want to elaborate on wax shit, but when we like, I think everybody knew he shouldn't be in LA at that time, Right, did you feel like that.

I was too young to feel that way.

I've seen him.

He was smiling from.

Even No I get it, but no, we know he was smiling.

He went out there young like he was happy to hang out there.

He was happy.

He was he was happy and didn't overhead.

If you asked me, even it was to be away.

He was a whole and n't know how to not tell people that right when people like that, Why y'all was out there because he wanted to be there.

That's what he wanted to be to this day, I stand on that, like yo, bo, he ain't want to live.

That's where he enjoyed it.

He wanted to jill it.

That's where he wanted to vibe at.

I don't know, I don't.

Know how to stay up to somebody, but your wife he wanted.

Why that's where we wanted to be there his own man.

He was comfortable there, and he loft la, so he wanted to be there.

I'm on front line with him.

Okay, cool, we leave them all.

No, we ain't even tomorrow.

We gonna stay here another week.

Cool, we're here all right, just where he wanted to be.

He called the shots.

It was his situation.

He felt good about being there, you know what I'm saying.

He felt like that place was a safe place for not even being safe.

He just wanted to be somewhere where he wanted to be.

He didn't give a fuck.

Really, we got there by twenty four years old.

D we older now we all turn in forties, forty fives, in our fifties.

He was twenty four.

You know what I'm saying.

We were still say he his niggas ain't no no better.

He died a baby every man fun.

They both died of baby like.

They both twenty something.

Like kids.

You know what I'm saying.

I saw a fun before he passed.

I did the show, and I was in a showing somewhere like North Carolina, somewhere he had to he was in the news the weight and we watched.

All signed to the same label.

So I come to my room, and you got some people in your room before I got about ship, I got deep rock, little got a bunch of aggressive ass niggas that they were coming there.

It's fun sitting and see suck.

Yeah, what's up?

So bro?

He love it, y'all.

He loved it.

Yeah, hell yeah man, fun for sure.

Dud heyeh.

He had crazy loved big.

I think that's one of the people he never got to rock with.

That he really really I would have loved the rock with and and you know, imagine a big and fun so imagine that big her, bigger herd.

Firewater.

He heard firewater.

He said, Yo, your man, this spit with you was dead nice, this this and that he heard that.

Sh know what I'm saying, Like, you know, that's the ship I'd be having to live with, like ship like that, like damn man.

If dog was here, oh yes, like yeah, ship would have loved him.

She was here to smoke something.

The ship I'm smoking.

He's smoking some good ship.

Yeah, he didn't get a chance.

He missed it.

He didn't get to smoke the pure he was smoking, was smoking that ship.

They can't call chronic.

Now he caught, he caught, he caught.

He ain't catch the way they catch this right now, right if he was his name and they catch it that ship, he ain't catch that, yo, yo, Yo, cahn't wait?

Did he go see him and get him going full up?

Yo?

When we got we got something, bring some bring something to the bron up there when the ant wi and not go see right to him.

He ain't come with that boppy budle.

You know Howody brought it up there for or he wanted?

Yeah, yeah, I'm sure he hear something.

Now you think, do you believe?

Let me ask you a questions which might be crazy, but it's real, right, you believe when you die, you go to heaven and they wait even for you and and Big Year be there waiting for you.

I don't think of that way.

I think it's a life after.

I do think that now I need you got to play and when he uses so you know I can't.

I don't know which one does probablieve the children on a few let me ask you questions.

No one, that's why you got a yo.

They don't want that man everyone.

But let me tell you, so you don't believe when you pass away you go see your people.

I donn't believe it happens like the way you think, like TV, it's a gate in it.

I don't, David say.

I don't think it's like the Park video.

I think to pull up here right there, you shoots on Joe, Joe praise Joe crat.

That is like that.

And I want to see my Nigga Raoul.

I want to see my mother and father.

I want to see Biggie.

I want to see everybody.

You know what I'm saying.

So if I believe in heaven and I believe in God, I believe that we're gonna see him.

And so they they call me crazy capped Joe, whatever the fuck you want, But I believe.

I think I'm fraid so much.

It is like that that my nigga told Montana my best friend ever in history.

I wish I could have that conversation.

You did it, nigga.

We was watching you.

They was coming up here saying, I want that.

You know what I'm saying my brother that I know.

I'm just saying my brother Tom Montana got killed before I even put.

Out a single, but he knew I was rapping.

He was proud of me.

And so imagine if I could go to heaven and he's just waiting for me, like, oh you you did this and this and this and that.

What was one of the illest ship that happened to you?

That blew your mind that you couldn't believe that.

Y'all met Shaka Khan, y'all met some some Oh y'all was rocking with fucking Michael Jesson.

Was you there for that?

I was there.

I wasn't in the session or he would you see him?

Michael?

Yes?

Nah, you see Mike Man.

That's the one time he violated me.

Bro big old ah, Michael be I Well he went to do the song with Mike right, he was like, yo, listen, Bro just rolled me up.

A few.

I rolled him on.

Some blunts want to go do this first with Mike.

So I'm thinking I'm still like coming there with him, right.

He's like, Yo, nah, bro, stay here.

I don't trust him with the kids.

He was joking.

Yeah.

Then so I sat in the whip with the verse for Michael came back hour later.

Verse done.

Check that's out.

Yeah, I ain't.

I left you on the G fourteen G fourteen.

That's you're five classified.

What's what's the G fourteen?

What's the G fourteen?

He left him and he left him in the whip.

The man told him, Yo, jasi fi.

He's just said fall back.

I'm going to rock with Michael with st you say for that's just a fallback.

I wouldn't go.

Fourteen fifteen.

It's been, it's been.

I want to.

I want to meet Michael Jackson his meetings.

It's people me, I says.

Look, one of my most trusted people on the planet Earth.

His pistol pe.

You see him over there.

There's people that just to be having met people I'm tight with, they will call me their brother, their family.

They this, they that the pristoph p.

They meant.

There's people are going there by myself, go talk to them and have a conversation with him and then come back.

In certain places, you just can't bring nobody, so you go up in there and you just fortunately.

Listen to though I get that Leo.

No, this was like Leo.

He's my brother.

I love him to death.

I take him anywhere.

I died with him.

And it's certain places I gotta be like yo, gossh, I see y'all little later.

I gotta walk over here.

It just I was on Punk.

They did that to you on Punk.

Yeah, they told me, don't bring nobody.

That's why he was in the whip by yourself.

Now that makes sense.

And you with too, though I ain't even see that ship.

But let me tell you.

So they try to punk me.

They never could punk me because my guys wouldn't sell me out, but they wanted to do.

They went to Joe Bentley because he used to reven the Bentley's and all that, and they told him they want to put a dead, fake dead body.

In the trunk.

Pull me over and act like I got a dead body in the trunk, off pump bro.

That was the narrative for Fat Joe.

Open the trunk and it's a dead body in there.

And Joe Bailey wouldn't sell me out.

He was like, Yo, I s can't do that.

I'm not huh, well, it's not a heart attack.

I would have did what I do now, Yo, I don't know nothing.

I got a lawyer, swear to God.

What would have happened on that camera?

Was like, Yo, I don't know nothing about that.

Yo.

I got a lawyer, say J Cunseler, like, that's it.

That's what I would have did.

That's all.

They would have caught on video.

But they wouldn't sell me out.

They tried Raoul, they tried Joe Bentley, they tried like three people, and everybody.

Like, yo, you crazy man.

I ain't setting Joe up with that ship like Joe ain't doing he ain't gonna go for it.

They told him, Yo, you ain't punking them.

He ain't he not gonna go for it.

You're wasting your time and it's shue.

I swear to God.

If they did it now, somebody put it their body in my truck, I'll be like, Yo, I got a.

Lawyer, man, ship, I ain't saying that.

I ain't gonna hear anybody about yo.

He make it that sound really?

My mother, Yo, my mother taught me.

Let me tell you something my mother taught me when we didn't have a fucking dollar, we didn't.

Even have a dollar.

How about we never had a lawyer.

My moms would tell me in the project, sure they grab you.

I told my daughter my Sonday, one million times they ever grab you anything on earth.

Just telling me he's not a lawyer.

You have to tell him he's got a lawyer.

That eliminates everything else.

So it's nothing really to talk about.

It's like, Yo, what you want me to do?

Yo?

This is terrible.

But you think I'm gonna try to convince it.

I don't know.

There's nothing you could do with call a lawyers.

I can't convince you I didn't put that body in this trunk of what I'm fucked or.

Not call the lawyers.

Call the lawyer.

That's what that was.

It They tried to pump me.

They shot.

They definitely trying to pump me.

So that Michael.

You wasn't there for Michael Jackson.

But what was you there for?

That?

That you coming from Brooklyn?

Young kid?

Michael?

And he was like, yo, were really doing this?

Like this is crazy?

What is it.

I mean I would say that like our first session, like you know, when we first got on, I know it.

Was a studio.

Yeah, like just that was a big moment.

I mean, you know, not thinking, you know, you think you're just gonna all right, be as your boy.

That's family, that's a big brother.

He on.

He came out in ninety four, We was out ninety five.

That's how fast we was in the studio.

That's absolutely the year.

That's absolutely impossible to do too, you know what I'm saying.

That was like becoming a legend and then you putting somebody else on and working for him and putting their music out of gear.

That's like it's beyond unheard of.

Came out nineteen ninety four, We came out in August nineteen ninety five, like delivery a year later and not just you know Kim be as a director like nah, he that that was his that's what he was doing.

That's twenty four years old, twenty two you create the process before he died.

Yeah, the clothing line already what was man, that ship was fly too hey, you know so here so we were just really just know I just said that I post about he is just knowing him and seeing I think he would have been a huge entrepreneur, like the jay z is you know he was.

He was just big poper diners, Yeah, proper restaurant these is already he was already dealing with people like what everybody to tell you?

He was gonna deal with you.

That just the Commission album.

He was already creating things in his head, like all right, House Side of Mafia, got a commission thing I want to do.

He told me about jay Z.

I had it.

Yeah.

He was like, yo, Joe, I said, yo, big come to my birthday party.

I think I had fucking China Club or something.

He was like, Yo, I might slide by with this.

Dude is crazy nice.

His name is jay Z.

It's my man.

I was like, worry.

He was like, Yo, I'm gonna come by with jay Z.

He didn't come, but he definitely told me about jay Z like he was like, Yo, that was my man, jay Z.

He dead nice.

He was talking like that, he's dead nice.

He's gonna blow this stack.

But they never came.

But that was the time, man, that whole time.

We was a fan of the music, you know, all of us at that time.

It was just like we was really doing some shit to change our lives.

Like you know what I mean, Like we so we really enjoyed being around each other, fucking with each other.

It was dope to go to the Bronx.

It was dope to go to Theonkas and hang out.

And you know, the big guy give me money, power, respect.

We always loved Big popa video like there he built something from that, Like just from that point on, it's like when Big die.

It made us all like it's like people before home.

We're gonna gonna keep it tight.

You know.

That's how I feel, right, And that's why whenever you see me jumping out, whether it's a big birthday, big anniversary, bring everything, I gotta jump out.

You sure I gotta jump anything because I gotta let them know.

Y'all win forgetting.

B I g like, not while I'm alive, not while I'm here.

We're not forgetting you know, the man who inspired us to become who we are, you know what I'm saying, Like I still to this day and I and I shout it out.

The other day was with Ray and we half like like Heavy D.

Like Heavy D gave me the confidence as a thirty yearning when he earned in my heart he gets confidence.

No every d no b I G.

I'm telling you, yeah, you know.

Heavy d was the fly Toe is day right, because he don't get that.

He don't he don't get that.

To this day, I throw that ship on.

I'm telling it.

To this day, I might have some fly yellow freak owen leather shit on.

And then I look in the instagram and I see it be like, Yo, nineteen ninety one nigga have had the same shit.

Over thirty years ago.

I'm like, yo, I still ain't catch him.

Like I can't beat heavy Bee's fly.

He was just so.

Fucking fly as a big mass saint thing with b ib I was like super fly.

Oh that was his homework.

Though he got that from him too, though, Like that's where no heavy ding.

I'm saying, we know that like that, you know one of the things you know, I would say we got you from too.

My wife is far from a groupie, but one of the things she thanks me for is for introducing her the big and she danks me, yo, man, thank you for letting me meet Biggie Sufficial.

And you know that's like, you know, Biggie, you know we gotta talk Biggie.

We always got to talk Tupac.

These two guys, right or like they're gonna live forever A thousand years.

From now, they're gonna live longer than us.

Yeah, they're martyrd hip hop for this whole thing.

Let me tell you something, And a lot of people don't get it.

Fucked up.

Everybody has something to do with hip hop.

We can go cool her Rambastard, flash man by everything, but five hundred years from now, hip hop is long gone.

But they analyze it like we're looking at the fucking Pyramids and all this.

Five hundred years and hip hop culture comes up, they're gonna talk about Biggie and Tupac, no doubt, there's nowhere around it.

They're gonna be doing fucking seminars and fucking college like right now.

They definitely got Biggie classes Tupac classes like those are the two faces of hip hop music.

After that, then you go.

Down, break down whoever else you everybody play, they part hip hop.

I don't want nobody watching this from the atf off the West Coast.

Skylar Rocket is like one of the first like rapper around, but he's not.

Going to be talking about it five.

You hustling getting checks when that ship slowed down two years later, I never forget my idel care risk one.

He came to my apartment in the drost said, Joe, how you doing.

I was fucked up?

You know what I'm saying, because once I left the drug game, it was all about rap.

So I had to make my money rap.

So he came to see me and he took me City Island.

He sat down there, Chris and the city l Rest and he said, he said, Yo, what's up?

Fucked up?

Ya?

He said, you come with me, hype it up, you do flow Jo, and I'm gonna throw you a little twenty twenty five hundred.

It was like ten thousand back to the base.

So he took me for a couple of months.

To hype him up.

I was just hype man and I get to do flow Joe, and you know what else was there with a wake up at.

We're gonna boss it.

Hype me up.

And so he fed me, you know during that time.

But you know there was you know, we know we had hard times and hit by something is great.

Sometimes it's slow up.

That's why you say all the time, Yo, we just gotta keep we gotta keep working.

We just can't start even if we don't need it.

We gotta keep going and going and going and going.

I'm going to Mongolia next week, mon, I gotta get the bag.
