You never gave us no closure, like you you was talking that young ship with us, but then you grew up and never told us how to be grown with you.
Speaker 1That's crazy.
Speaker 3And I was like, damn, chrast, I got I'm gonna tell you some ship right my dad from when I was a baby, bro, Like I'm not gonna lie as soon as he saw me like being like realizing or as soon as he realized I was in the rap, he made me study bro.
Of course of course is the mean like he made me listen and understand and even like grow to understand what he was saying.

That was one of the verses that made me want to rap as well.
Bro, That verse is really important to.
Speaker 1Me, Like I was gonna ask you that too before.
Speaker 3Coming to age, because I didn't understand that at the time.
I'm I'm the kid I was.
I was nine years old listening the crack game.
Somehow the rap game remmmy, I'm trying to break that down and rap and try to explain to my friends how crazy the beat is.
And he's saying and I'm none.
So it's like, yo, bro, the ship coming to everything like that.
I heard from you, your influences.
Speaker 1I don't know if you know.
Speaker 3You probably one of them the people with the most consecutive cipher beats for niggas in the streets from that as, bro, all your beats that you for some reason you got the end at pick the beats the streets and people want to wrap two that really rapping is really a hip hop.
I used to have to come outside every day and wrap to mom, right, I used to have to come outside every day and wrap the men bleakers.
I used to have to come out and do that.
Bro, that's what I remember.
Having to go get the not like yeah, having to because my Pops, I told him, get this, that's.
Speaker 2My brother man.
Pops used to always be on me.
Your bleak Man, you're doing your things, stay at it.
Don't stop.
Every time I used to see them, you know, because Jay and them used to have shows together.
It was performing together, so we used to be touring together.
And I used to be with Pops and used to always give me the game, yo, study your craft, practice your flow, stay in the stude.
Don't ever stop, man, like you know what I mean, like all the time, Like if people don't know that circle, you know what I'm saying that og always helped me down and gave game.
Yo, what you're doing, Yo, come fuck with us, because you know niggas I was it was a young homie, so you know guns, he helped me down to bleek and a lot of people in the industry.
That's why I'm glad I got this show, because I'm able to show the relationships that I got with the family.
Speaker 1You know, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2Niggas would never think that bro like I love y'all, like you know what I mean, Like y'all from the ex.
Speaker 1They know Brooklyn and d X usually don't fuck with each other, but they do know what they're doing.
That's a fact.
Speaker 3We got so much similarities that, yeah, don't admit it.
Like everybody on my family from Brooklyn even they're like, Yo, we were the same.
Speaker 1That's yo all.
Speaker 2But you answer one of my questions on what, like what made you get into the round?
That's crazy you said I was an influencer.
Speaker 1Man, that shit.
You fucking blew my mouth with that.
But Yo, like you was around like what.
Speaker 2Sixteen fifteen when you signed with Rockefeller when we was on doing the ding and Baseline.
Speaker 1Yeah, seventeen, Yeah, I just got the President jay.
Speaker 2I remember when you got your deal, my nigga like this, lit celebrated Baseline like, oh we about to kill him rest of peace.
Speaker 1Kse Slave.
We went to k Slave, went up their freestyle.
My gee.
We did so many.
We did like about four or five records.
Speaker 3I don't got some shop world, We got some joints.
Speaker 1Word up, my nigga.
We cooked some ship, my nigga.
We was in there going man.
Speaker 2And this was at the same time when Saigone True Life, everybody was getting their deal and coming up.
Man, how do you feel your impact on you know what I mean, what was the pressure like for you at that moment?
Speaker 3You gotta think of I'm around and what I'm around everybody you just name y'all.
So it's like it's like I can't I gotta eat.
I gotta pull up on my A game.
Every day, every trip, every time.
I was always a fly on the wall over there and always looking.
And I remember we did a session one day.
This is the this is the history, like this is the ill ship that I could say I've been.
Speaker 1Around like that.
I ain't never gonna forget.
I'm out.
Speaker 3I'm in the stool of Google.
Shout out the Guru, shout out, Yah know, young Guru.
He is I would say, a big a big brother to me, but I respect him more like an uncle, Like he don't understand that his respect exees a brother to me, like he's I listen to, I take his advice and bro.
I was in there for when Jay did the joint for Go Crazy.
Speaker 1We was all in there.
I was mixing it.
Speaker 3You told me in that session, you say, Yo, this is twenty years ago.
Speaker 1You was like, Yo, you get the bag, you get a deal.
Speaker 3Don't go buying the jury, don't go buy the clothes, don't go buy whatever the car is out, get your money, get your property, get that crib you put you hook that crib up or whatever.
You flip that property or you get whatever you gotta do to make sure that ship is better than when you went there.
After you make it better, you sell it for more, and you keep doing that.
Speaker 1That's right.
Speaker 3I never forget that ship.
You told me that ship then, and I was looking at you at the time.
Speaker 1I'm like, mighty, I ain't even think of that fall yet.
Speaker 3But at the time, for you to say that to me, it was like, that's some l shit.
I was just learning the game that's going.
Speaker 1On and everything.
Speaker 3But but for you to choose to share that say it to me at that time, I didn't forget it, even if I didn't know what it meant or nothing.
And then showed the impact of words from people who inspire and influence and who you look at a certain way, that far they could go.
I always now thirty, I'm late thirties, yo, and I'm listening and still hear you say that ship.
Speaker 1So niggas like you and young Chris Yon niggas cheated.
Man.
How these niggas been in the game twenty plus years is still thirty?
How?
Speaker 2How what the fuck was going on?
These niggas got the O G bag and could get.
Speaker 1The young nigga back like, that's insane to me.
Speaker 2I come outside that now, man, No, no, what you on the fourth floor.
Speaker 1If you go on the third floor, we fuck with you.
He was blessed, bro, that's a blessing man to be in the game, y'all.
Speaker 3On the radio, y'all listen, y'a don't have any seven I'm listening to here, I'm messing with powers, putting in my pamps.
I remember, I remember where I was at when I heard You'll on the radio.
Speaker 1I had it on tapes.
Speaker 2Yeah, that'shit crazy, like all the nights in the studio, Like, is it anything you feel like you left on the table from the time with Deaf Jam when Jay was up there.
Speaker 1M M.
I know the only thing that I'm that I think of.
Speaker 3We got a lot of good, great, great I don't want to say good great music.
Speaker 1That's a fact.
Speaker 3I don't think I left none on the table because I learned a lot and I was giving the opportunity and I was able to be around y'all.
I learned that helped me learn a lot, see a lot.
I picked up a lot, like even what being quiet or just being there and being around helped me see a lot, like a quiet fast sessions Coles came through.
Speaker 2That's what was just getting on to you.
Was around at the at the very beginning, Yes.
Speaker 1Basically what everybody was there.
Speaker 3So I was just I'm like, what is just blazing here?
Any other days random like Jacob, I'll be in them in the in the allat of them days.
J put the call and was like, yo, bro, I'm about to come up here.
Niggas gotta go whatever room.
Speaker 1Yeah, we get kicked out the room.
That's a fact out or whatever the case.
Speaker 3Like, I've been around for all of that and I've seen it and I've been able firsthand.
Then you gotta realize I'm still from the fan era.
So I'm seeing a lot of the ship.
I'm hearing about it.
I'm seeing in it moved some.
I'm seeing stuff like I remember my pops coming home explaining to me why they were standing with He was like, yo, we're standing with j Man Like he's boycotting the Grammy.
Speaker 1The Max came home.
Speaker 3And explained to me why because they didn't go up or accept or do nothing at the time they was nominated.
At the same time, he was like, no, he's standing with JA like talk about it, nothing like we're gonna no fuck that, like, what's up?
Speaker 1So I remember that ship like.
Speaker 3We being in the living room waiting to see them on TV and they don't even come on and nothing and pre tell and what he stood for and the old like when they explained it him, like hell yeah.
Speaker 1So it's just it's moments and things like.
Speaker 3That that I'll remember and I'll never forget, like and then being around and being to see that ship coming fruition and being in the around at the same time.
A lot of these verses being recorded, like that go Crazy verse Crazy is one of the craziest verses I heard and.
Speaker 1Shout out young Z.
He was in the studio too.
He came through crazy though.
Speaker 2That verse was ridiculous, and Jay wrote that ship and then there like and then there like literally Gez came through, played the joint, came through, played the joint, We smoked the couple j like, I got it done, crazy bro, Like hope was it was a magician, man.
But you you I always felt like your round style was just next level.
Speaker 1Bro.
Speaker 2Did you feel like at any point was you ahead of what people were accepting?
Speaker 1Yeah?
Sometimes I ain't gonna lie.
Speaker 3Sometimes I did, but then I'm like, yo, I don't under I didn't at the time understand a lot of the business and how certain things went.
Speaker 1I understand.
Speaker 3You gotta like it's certain, it's certain ways you gotta presentation is key, everything is key.
Like you gotta certain ways, you gotta do certain things.
So I was like, Yo, I'm rapping this way on this level and this and nobody in it.
So it's been times where I'm like, maybe I'm just too like nobody understands it, whether it's yet or they just never gonna get it, whether I mean I mean be out of it, out of style, maybe not, they don't get it yet.
I maybe, like I don't know what it is.
But it's been times I thought that way, And then I'm like, like, everybody that I listen to and look up to has their own unique traits and their own processes and their own ways of moving and doing the things they do.
They have their own skill set for a reason, they have their own whatever, you know what I'm saying, and make them who they are and make them unique the unique individuals they are creatively, So I just tap in with that shit like I don't really get too caught up in thinking of what I should be doing as far as being like the next person, because they they who they are for a reason.
Speaker 1That's sure.
Speaker 3So sometimes I did get a little discouraged when when I hear somebody telling me like you got a chill, slow down as far as the tempo or rapping.
Why, It's like, yeah, I get that, But when it's like you gotta kind of like your is your shit is a little too sophisticated, It's like, bro, I don't think people are stupid though, right, so it's.
Speaker 1Hard for me to like, you know what I'm saying, and you're not stupid, so how can you write something dumb?
Speaker 3Think is I don't think I'm smarter than everybody else, Like I think people will get what I'm doing.
That's why I'm doing it for them to get it.
Like I don't, I don't think as far as some people always had kind of I don't know, but certain ship is like a it's a common thing with me now, No, No, I feel you like everything is when it's supposed to happen, is going to and that's a fact that like I'm a firm believer.
What's for you is for you, and it will come to you eventually, no matter how how much how long it takes.
But what made me ask you that question is because I feel like you and Jay were in the scene.
It's like you in the same position that he was in where he started, you know what I mean, Like he was like people didn't understand the money talk.
Speaker 1Then they didn't, They didn't get it.
Speaker 2They felt like you showing off you know what I'm saying, Like they thought, what are you talking about?
Speaker 1What's this?
Speaker 2What's And now niggas is looked listening and be like, yo, bro, he wasn't talking about this so reasonable.
That's no fucking way THINKA been talking about this for thirty years and I'm just now understanding it.
I feel like that's how they're gonna be with you, Like because yo, bro, I don't want to fast forward, but I'm gonna be all the way honest.
Your A Milli verse to me is one of the hardest versus spit right, But you know, I just, probably like last year, understood the intro of that verse.
Speaker 1For a minute, I didn't know what you were saying because you.
Speaker 2Said wording my mamam out of my lima being you don't know what the drama mean that.
I didn't know what dreama mean was at the time, so I'm like, okay, what drama and drama mean?
Speaker 1I he did his thing.
I go on the road with somebody in a pop dremma meaning I'm like, wait the wait what whoa whoa whoa.
Speaker 2Go back to a MILLI It's like, nah, nah, this nigga, it wasn't doing this ship this long ago.
Speaker 3That That's what I'm telling I used to have to take that ship emotions.
Speaker 1Yeah, biggers all boats and ship.
Yeah.
I used to get costick when I was a kid.
Speaker 3I used to get cosstick bad.
And we used to have to be on the road a lot, going down South.
Speaker 1With my grandparents.
Yeah.
We used to go down south every summer like then to talk about we going.
Were going for sure, Okay, no, it might.
Speaker 3Be a most two three months, maybe early, maybe late, but we're definitely going.
At some point, we're going to Virginia.
I used to be on the road six seven hours.
Speaker 1And be ship.
They gotta pull over.
I'm throwing up.
Speaker 3They found that ship.
I was taking that ship and be good.
So after a while I just got I didn't get motion sickness.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, yeah, I knew.
Speaker 3I remember that from having to take that ship so much, and I know that it.
Speaker 2Was just from the motion yeah shaking, Yo, bro, I never heard of that drug until I went on the road where I ain't gonna say no names because I got chewed up last time I bought the son Like, Yo, you dissing me, so I can't even I gotta keep it like anonymous allegedly, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1And they popped the dream of me.
I'm like, what's that for?
Nick?
Speaker 2To everything you say your for emotion sickness, I don't like sitting in the back of the car.
Speaker 1This and this yo were on the boat they needed.
Speaker 2I'm like, I never heard of the ship and I'm telling you only place I ever heard that word mentioned was a MILLI and I had to go.
Speaker 3Back and I wasn't n That was the middle of my verse when I wrote that verse with him, like I wrote it, he played me the song already.
People be a lot of people beginning ship can screw like yo, you right.
Speaker 1For a lot of people thought people helped.
Wayne is nice man.
He played that ship done already.
Yeah, it's three verses.
It was three verses on the record.
He played me the whole song one time already before.
Speaker 2M so he gave you a cheat code because usually Nick don't do that.
He did come closer, Come closer, Come closer to me.
Speaker 3He played it straight through one time for me to get where he like, I don't know if he played all three.
Speaker 1He played like a couple.
Yeah.
Speaker 3He's like, yo, bro, this is it, like, this is this is how it saund this is what I'm doing on here.
So I'm like, all right, I know he just ed this ship out.
What I'm gonna think, I gotta edit this ship out, like you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1It's like I heard that.
I gotta it.
Speaker 3I can't like so with them on this verse, I wrote two in my head.
I'm like, I'm gonna write two verses.
I'm gonna write one one I'm just punching.
And that was the first part of the one I wrote.
Then the second one, I was like, I'm gonna just do me on the second part.
Like so in the middle of the verses, when you hear me say nigga word that my mama, I do a whole verse before that, and then I cut myself off on something like I'm skitching into some other ship and then go So that's the second part of the verse I did, is.
Speaker 1What he was like.
He come out.
I'm like, yo, you want me to do it over?
I got to rewrite doing another one.
Speaker 3He was like, come out right now it's done.
You don't even know, Like, so I'll go out.
Speaker 1He's like, yo, nigga, this is it.
Using it, that's it.
Speaker 3You don't got to go and nothing else, like you sure like this is it?
Speaker 1That's it.
That was it.
He was right.
He did it, and that was it.
He called it.
Speaker 3He picked the spot or the verse, everything like the part as far as like the part he wanted to cut it out, which like energy wise everything like he knew what he wanted from the record, so.
Speaker 1He picked that spot, did everything like man, that's what's up.
Man.
Wayne is definitely super talented, super dope.
Speaker 2But Yo, you know a lot of people, you know, I even had j Mills up here, and you know, I see a lot of interviews with a lot of young money, a lot of young money artists.
You know, people say, yo, how do you feel being from young money?
Speaker 1You I know, you was down with young money.
Speaker 2But I don't view you as from young money because you are and was who you was before you got the young money and still even after young money.
So my question to you is how did that relationship even form?
Was it something that Wang made a call to you, like, Yo, Guns, I need you on the team.
I need a shooter, I need a point guard.
I need to shooting.
Speaker 3God, Bro, busy right, I didn't notice, Like it was a couple of times and a couple of people that we knew mutually that would tell me that wing say, hell, Bro, want to holler at you.
Speaker 1So I'm like, no, you don't like you know what I'm saying, come on, Bro, I ain't going for that ship.
That's right.
Speaker 3So's but it started coming from credible sources, and I'm like what One day I heard he actually pulled up to my block and the acts came to the block, Bro, and I wasn't there, and the niggas told me like that was out there.
Speaker 1Was like he pulled up, Bro, like we saw him.
Speaker 3They ain't have a reason to lie about it, you know what I'm saying, Like they're like, yo, no, he pulled up, Bro, like we saw that nigga.
He was looking for you whatever he goes.
I said what he was like, yeah, my man, busy man shout out to busy he.
I don't know who exactly it was.
That was his contact with him, but he's like a cousin, like he's a family move.
So he told me one day, he like, yo, this when I'm on the label I'm at But he don't know.
He didn't notice stipiet.
He didn't know Jay has sign mean through that jin he comes through this one guru this.
Speaker 1Every time go mention this, He's like, yo, bro.
Speaker 3He was like, when I go in the office, you don't understand the leverage.
Niggas say, oh, bro, you have to because at the time you gotta think this.
When he just dropped Dedication two called the two, he's doing TRL and all that shit promo about to drop Carter three.
This is in between them that time.
So he like, yo, bro, you just he was like HEO, you know, Wayne just came through here for you and did y'all.
Y'all just did a record.
He was like, yo, bro, they couldn't get that.
With all due respect, he was like, no, nobody could do what just happened today.
Like he was like, that's right there is.
He recorded the joint.
It was originally the shout out the DJ Khalil.
He recorded it and just ended up doing the beatover when Wayne came to the studio.
Speaker 1He was recording that.
Sony.
Wayne came to the.
Speaker 3Lab he said it.
He was like, yo, bro, what's your situation, Like, what's should like?
And I explained to him with the like yeah, I'm on dev Jaane, but this is through.
When he as soon as he heard it was through j Bleek, he was like, I ain't stepping on the big Homie told.
He was like, I ain't know that.
He was like I thought.
He was like if ever you know what I'm saying.
He was like, whatever you need from me, we got you.
Speaker 1That was it.
He was like, yeah, this is on the love though.
He was like we got his love.
Speaker 3He was like, I ain't know it was out of respect for that and I was like, we already here doing this.
He was like whatever y'all need, whatever, holler at me.
From then on, That's when I started like I'm like, well, no, I fuck with this nigga.
He pulled up, didn't charge came through In the middle of his promo run Bro.
Speaker 1He was on he was doing.
Speaker 3TRL and one six word up.
He came through in the middle of his promo run.
He stopped at the lab, did have did sixteen?
Realized I did thirty two, then did another sixteen.
So we did a whole song and just was able to chop in make it a record.
Speaker 1Just we did it.
We did two long.
Speaker 3Verses and just just created CD of something else to it that made it like So from that it was like blaze.
Speaker 1That's how we first linked though.
Speaker 3That's how that relationship personally me and him, because I seen him from time to time, like going to New Orleans or going certain places I see and we know a few mutual people, but I never met him.
That was the time, the one it was like he was like nigga.
He told me straight up.
He was like yo, I thought he was like I wanted to pull up here and then we was out.
We was going to hit one O six and do all this ship like he was like he was about to come with the team.
I ain't gonna step on Homie big Homie tools Like he was like, fuck with JA.
Speaker 1He was like I didn't know that.
He was like you family, whatever, y'all need you know what?
Speaker 2I mean, I ain't gonna front cash money, been fam since before time.
Niggas don't even know that that relationship with them is like that, you know what I'm saying, Like wang fam.
Speaker 1Like word like all of them.
Speaker 2All of them, the whole cash money b g all of the biggest man that's the family team word.
Speaker 1And that's dope.
Speaker 2Like when I seen you over there in the squad, I'm like, Damn, they got hitters over there, you J Mills, fucking Tiger, Nikki Drake I told, I told Miles the same thing.
I just feel like y'all caught the wave of what I dealt with with J.
Like some things is just anomalies and it just it's just grow too fast and it's nothing you can do no matter.
Like I feel like if I would have had my run without Jay trying to become the billionaire he was, I would have been way bigger.
That's like all of y'all on your money that like Nikki and Drake, Lulu Wayne already had the wave, but Nicki and Drake caught the stupidest super life Sonic Solar System spend that that shit don't happen to nobody.
You've never seen a label sign two artists and they fucking become the biggest artists in the world at the same time that it doesn't happen bro.
So like y'all was up against that mega monster where label they're gonna chase the brag.
They love all the artists, they want all of y'all to beat them.
But when when a certain artists get that look, it's just not on you.
And I felt that when Beans came to Rockefeller, you know what I mean, even when shit was over and like it was dying thing.
P d Krack caught the neo joint.
Niggas ain't throw that was bleak throw that verse on it.
It was nine you the old it's the new ride.
Even when y'all was getting signed true life, I knew my position.
I was there always just trying to help y'all because I knew y'all was the new face of the new wave where they were going.
Speaker 1So I never wanted to be that guy.
Speaker 2I felt like, you know how, like the quarterback when it's not your time and it's the rookie nigga come up and now he hated Nah.
Speaker 1I want to be that nigga back there with the clipboard, like this, like, Nah, what's the next play?
Your fam?
You could do this like this because I used to always be in a.
Speaker 2Stoo every night with you and to be like whatever, if niggas need a hook, you need me to tell, just make the beat better, Kanye, make a new beat.
Let me know, Bro, I'm running there and let niggas know.
So I always been pushing for you to win, and I felt like you won in many many ways.
Speaker 1Do you feel like you accomplished everything you wanted to in music?
I do.
I do to an extent.
Speaker 3It's certain things and certain things I still want to like of course there's still certain goals, especially numerically.
Speaker 1And ship.
You still in the new era, bro, when they're throwing the bags out.
Speaker 3Yeah, like number wise, Yeah, as far as like art and culture wise, like I bought everybody that I listen to growing up and not inspired and influenced me told me I was dope.
So that ship is like a like a it's not an arrogance, it's not a but it's a but it's like an I yeah, nigga, you you're there.
That's a fad now what you're doing type ship?
Like that's what I get from it ain't even like you him now or not.
It's a I you on the radar, So what you're gonna do now type ship?
Like they hate you, they see you.
So what you're gonna do next?
What you're going now, Like, how you're gonna maintain, how you're gonna be better than this?
Speaker 1Like that's right.
So that's how I look at it and see it.
Speaker 3But like everybody I listen to that inspired me and influenced me in ways I was able to, if not face to face, hit them or see them.
And some on some sort of record say that, like you that niggas different.
He nice, that's a fact, like you know mean, So it's like that alone.
That's what I really at one point, that's what I was really all about.
That's all I really cared about, was like yo, as long as the goats still do.
But it's still like now it's like I'm more business oriented with certain ship.
Speaker 1And that's that's right, man, what's new?
What's new?
Like?
Speaker 2But hold on, before we even get into what's new?
Not gonna let you finish?
You said you still got goals you want to what's what's some of those goals you feel like you want to hit now.
Speaker 1I want to.
Speaker 3My main thing that I always want to do.
I want to be able to like be the reason that somebody is great.
Oh no, it's I want to stay in be hand.
I want to be the exact Broason as somebody listen or somebody was inspired.
Speaker 1I want to inspire.
Speaker 2If you don't think you inspired, bro your family you have from Pops, Lord Torik to you, I told you before this, right, I know it's a kid out there you inspired lyrically, But y'all niggas influenced the regular name rappers in the game.
Speaker 1Remember before your.
Speaker 2Pops think Peter Guns, Lord Tarik, if he'd just came out as Peter and Tarrek, niggas of them like.
Speaker 1Yeah nah, who.
Speaker 2Let me hear that?
Bust the rhymes throwing that common sense, you know what I mean?
Grabbers black thought like niggas came with a regular Peter Guns, then Lord Toik and then Corey Guns like y'all influenced the rappers of today.
Think about it, y'ad fucking Tory Lanes by g like, it's a lot of them, aren't you.
Speaker 1Joe Buttens like you film me like niggas that reg it wasn't that before, y'all is different.
So on that note, you influence in my nigga.
Speaker 2Like, if you don't hear you your thumb print fingerprint on the flows up today, then you might not be listening to the right people because everybody flowing like they wanna because everybody can't, but they wanna flow like you, bro, Like, think about it, it's only one other artist two that I'm gonna say got the illness flows other than you in this game that I put you with, right, Big Daddy Kane is number one, because I feel like no one, no one ever matched that a w flow like like first person.
Speaker 1You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2I watched that man perform that record by hisself, no hype man, one hundred per breath control.
Speaker 3Spitting like that's the first person growing like I ain't gonna lie to you, and.
Speaker 2Then it's you with that nobody ever hurt, nobody mimic your flow can flow.
Speaker 1And then I gotta throw my dog freeway up there.
Speaker 2Free you feel me like y'all three spinners that niggas cannot immulate, bro, they cannot.
I don't give a fuck how much you sit with, how much tape you watch, if you you can watch all the film you want.
You're not gonna come out and be sounding like y'all guys like when y'all spit.
You know, so, I definitely want to give you your flowers on that, mom bro, because any record niggas hear you on, trust me, you make the best spinners have to step their game up.
And you did records with some of the goats.
You made all of them around.
Better me too, because I remember being there, like, ain't no fucking way I'm gonna let this little nag.
Speaker 1Niggas.
Ain't no way.
You ain't gonna have to beat me up.
Speaker 2They gonna have to say, blee, gotta jump out the little niggas.
Speaker 3But you, no, I'm telling you, but you you don't understand like the pressure and the inspiration and influences would make niggas want to like it's like a Noah, I got it, I can't play, I can't I gotta rap.
I got it, Like nah, this week you're listening.
You listen to it his music already like you already, like you don't need to, like that's extra pressure.
Speaker 1No, no, no, man.
Speaker 2You you parted the legendary young spinners that paved the way for these new young spinners in New York.
Speaker 1And you still fucking young is what is insane, my nigga.
He was making history as a teenager and still making history like fucking like, think about it.
Niggas play with a lot of rap names they throw out.
It's all type of battle rap leagues all it is.
You ain't never heard of nigga play with Corey not no gun.
They play with guns, but they don't play with these guns.
I just gotta be honest, you know what I mean.
Niggas literally play with guns.
They don't play with Peter and Cory guns.
I'll be ing like it's real talk.
Speaker 2Niggas even be shitting on me bleep, don't want no smoke.
But niggas ain't playing with you, my niggas, So you gotta know that that means something.
Speaker 3Bro, Like, look, bro, it's not a rapper in this game you but this is the thing, Like you're part of the reason for that.
So well you're not realizing that I'm even trying to tell you.
It's like, you know, I come from the lineage, like my time in the class and from there, like you can't like what we're doing here, Like you know, what it is like you in this room already gotta be elite.
Speaker 1You're an elite.

Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, and you and you from the Mecca, bro, the acts, that's where hip hop is birthed at.
You know what I'm saying, Like you coming from the Mecca, I feel like you gotta be.
Speaker 1A spinner, but can't you?
Speaker 2Yeah, no, you got I mean I think just being from New York, but being from the Bronx, you gotta be.
Speaker 1He got the worst critics.
Speaker 3Like when I say the worst, we got the best fan base.
Because if you come from here, like people say, you come from here, you make it anyway, literally a diamond.

Speaker 2The tunnel is legendary, bro, Like the tunnel was like that's when you knew it.
Oh yeah, the unisex bathroom.
Yeah, you girls and boys using the bathroom together.
It used to go down in the tunnel.
Boy, But Yo, the tunnel was like, I feel like the tunnel was our way of gauging if you had the streets, if your song had the streets.
Because it's a lot of niggas winning the tunnel and shit didn't ring off.
And there's a lot of niggas who went in there and they shit win ape shit the way it felt like everybody died and came back to life.
That's how crazy they went for Like the club exploded and we all just came back.
Speaker 1Like what the funk just happened?
Like when my right dropped broke.
That's what I was about.
That Listen that beat, that's Yo's shout out.
DJ twins Man, twins Man.
Speaker 3I could call five people, right, Sonny, you don't remember every day we come out were playing.

Speaker 1I made it understanding, like myth bleak is what you think of that?
Yo?
Bro?
I used to get it's so crazy.
Speaker 2I didn't even what you think of That was supposed to be the first single, but we couldn't clear the sample.
They didn't clear the sample until Jay put his verse on it because I wasn't known.
So the niggas is like, who the fuck is that Jay put his verse on it?
Then they clear the sample.
But at that time, Jay was like, Yo, I gotta go home.
Me and Swissland he y ass got on the plane and went and did myth bleak is.
I didn't even like that record, bro.
I didn't even like myth Bleakers, bro.
And it's so crazy that that song is the reason why I was in the Bronx so much like you talking about the other clubs.
Man, y'all had one of the best fucking skating roller rings in the world.
Speaker 1He what skate what's the name?
Yo, bro?
They used took They used to book me every week.
They used to book me every week.

Speaker 2That was I was already passed the key at that time.
Myth bleak is what you think of that?
Fucking like crew love coming to age.
Those was the skate Key days, do mi.
I was already in the tunnel.
I was leg I was in ski rest in peace, mister c man.
Speaker 3You know, I mean what, I ain't gonna lie that what you think of that?
Keep mentioning telling me the first time I heard that ship shout out buck wow each other, like yo, this is that my possible?
I'm like you here, like do we hear what's going on?
You're like, yo, this ship is out of here.
Speaker 1I fuck you, my nigga.
I appreciate you, bro.
Crazy.
Speaker 2What's what's next for you musically?
Are you like you got any other ideas outside of music or you just slowly focused on music right now we're.
Speaker 1Doing the music.
I ain't gona front.
Speaker 3I got some other ship that I've been working on, like as far as like I want to tap into the films, I want to tap into a couple other business ventures as far as like not only just totally music, but like even food, even working out different stuff like that, Like I want to tap into the health and fitness I want to tap into, Like I'll be into like food.
I want to do something at some point with some pizza and some movies.
Like that's my two biggest things that I'll be really into.
Speaker 2Like, and I feel like the Bronx got a major story too, man, Like it's so many legends, so much legendary shit from up there.
Speaker 1Man, Yeah, that story gotta be told.
Speaker 2Who else but the kid who grew up behind watching the Lynn.
Come on, bro, you're done seen you had a front row seat at all.
So much legendary shit, bro that the average kid didn't get a chance.
Speaker 1To live the life you live you know me and kidding me.
Speaker 2Man, you was on tour at fucking you was a running around the world with your pops ten years old.
They platinum, triple platinum on their single tour in the world, and here you are with the little nigga riding on stage everything.
Think about that, bro, Not every kid had that life, you know what I mean?
Like, like you said, you might not have had the accolade's music come with like the yo the album did this or the single did this?
But bro, you live a better life than certain rappers that did.
It's rappers that went gold had never been on tour, you.
Speaker 1Know what I mean.
It's rappers with platinum singles that never made the album.
Speaker 2So so it's like, that's why I always tell people's success is how you measure happiness.
Success is not wealth.
I feel like success is happiness.
As happy as you can be with the decisions and choices in life where you are at.
That's successful to me.
Speaker 1Bro.
Speaker 2If you could go to sleep with a smile on your face and know you did everything you wanted to do and you accomplished everything, and everybody healthy and good, nigga, that's success.
Speaker 1Money is secondary, you know what I mean.
So that's my view of success.
You know what I mean?
Speaker 2So you got any projects, dropping any music, you want to promote anything.
Speaker 3Lucy Pat, it's full right on the fourth phone.
How you forget, see said, when you're on the fourth that's how you know.
He got too many raps, too many raps.
Speaker 2Biggat said he even know the date.
I told him why because every day Friday.
Speaker 1Only niggas forget the date is because Monday is Friday, Tuesday.
Nigga like, yo, you go out there.
I go out every day.
You know what.
That's called boss life, live a boss.
You know what I mean.
Speaker 2You gotta be you gotta be grateful and thankful for that that you're able to provide and pay bills and set your own hours.
Because I know niggas who work nine to fives and they say that shit sucks.
I never had a nine to five.
My nine to five always been this, and there's been twenty four to eight, so I ain't even been a nine to five.
Speaker 1That shiit twenty four eight.
Speaker 3Is that's what they don't understand too.
That work too hell yeah, shit like it ain't no like walking the explain to somebody.
I'm like Yo, you complaining and you know what, Tom, you gotta do whatever you gotta do, Like I get a call right now, I gotta make a move.

You might have to do this, you might have to be at this place like it's different.

I could say places like that Australia, New Zealian like New Zealand, like I got a show coming out being Japan.
Speaker 1You'll be going everywhere.
Speaker 2Yeh see me, I like to travel on something because I traveled on tour to a lot of these countries, and I feel like when you go to these places for a show, you don't really see the city or the country.
You just see the hotel club in the airport.
You might see one restaurant and mad places like that, and you didn't never enjoy the city.
So now, like being married, I like to go back to these places with my wife and do a little bit of the tourist ship.

Speaker 2Is yeah, this is the shit we was rocking.
That's New York, Like this is New York.
Like that's what I was trying to make with this album because I felt like not that we two down south for we this.
I just feel like New York's sound is very good.
You don't really hear it.
The only time I hear it is when I hear you or I hear you know what I mean, J Mills, I hear fucking my song spit, I hear Benny and them.
I hear like, that's it, that's it.
But then it's like it's not enough of that, you know what I mean?
Like if I go down the list, it's only about the probably about six of y'all that's really still doing New York music, smoke all, you know what I mean a lot of people just doing variety music where whatever stick sticks, fucking we go throw everything against the wall, fucking whatever stick.
Speaker 1We running with that sound today.
If they like this, fuck it, I'm with that.
Speaker 2And me I felt like I didn't want our sound to get lost in the art bro because I beat our style.
We influenced a lot of what's going on.
G All this shit you hear what's going on?
That shit is just New York sped up or slow down, you know what I mean, real talk, it's just New York sped up or slow down.
So I wanted to get back to that and what made Bleak bleak and what made me fall.
Speaker 1In love with hip hop.
Speaker 2That's why even when Nori told me do this show, I was telling him, Yo, Bro, I ain't no fucking journalists.
Speaker 1I don't want to interview niggas.
Speaker 2And he like, you're not interviewing niggas, You're talking to your brothers, And then the light went on.
I'm like, Yo, you're right.
I got a lot of family in this game that niggas don't know.
Is my family that need his platform because I'm a firm believer.
After this interview, watch how many people call you for an interview?
Speaker 1Mark my words.
Speaker 2Because we live in the world where if you're not up here shitting on Wang or shitting on Drake, niggas don't want to talk to you.
You ain't got beef with your pops.
They don't want to fucking hear it.
They need some type of controversy shit to go viral.
You know what I'm saying.
But I wanted to show niggas.

Our culture is more important than just to yo.
We don't fuck with each other or fuck this nigga shit like we too important man, like you got guys like yourself.
