You feel me, you know, oh, when they come to interviews, he's lit right now it ain't nobody before him, none of it when it come to a certain error, but you know how. You basically said yeah, my pop was 20 years older than my mom and my grandmommy. No, no, I'm saying I'm saying that that give us that era. You said no, no, I'm saying I'm saying that because he's hitting it. Yeah, he said that his, his pop was 20 years older than his mom. Yeah, right, something happened. He had to move with his grandmom and his grandmom never liked him. Because he reminded, because that's what he like that's what he went.

I can find I'm going to have somewhere to stay or somewhere I'm cool. So I ran away the first time. It took me like two days to find my neighborhood. I was nine.

I guess she's jumping in and out of cars, whatever she's doing. He's mad, some crackhead shit. I don't know whatever's going on, but the conversation part about it I tell people all the time it ain't bothered me as much as it should, because it always was like that. It's different if you got it good, then the shit turn bad. You're like, oh, what the fuck? It was bad like that from the rip.
Speaker 2:So when I left Because I look back on it now tattooed on me he died now, but that's like my dad.

I was like that was my last resort, but I used to bring people house, go to sleep, like this lady named slump. She ended time she come down cussing me out to the point she just start coming down there putting the cover on me like man. You mean so my neighbor always my neighbor loved me, so they was proud of me. When I start becoming somebody I mean, and you talking about 11, 1200 yeah, yeah all right.

So I want you to talk about how the whole north, the west thing happened, because you know what's up exactly what happened.
Speaker 2:Bro. This is a crazy story, right? So one night my life was like a movie, and sometimes only reason I would tell these stories is because I got people that could back up and tell you exactly what happened. I mean, there's no lies, it's 100% real. So I was watching this movie. I don't got no money, I'm a kid, I'm probably about 12. And these mob boys broke into a pawn shop. I said I want to do that fully work, right? So it was like 3 in the morning.
Speaker 2:I go to Gemertel on the Avenue, like a sneaker store behind a sneaker store, and tried it with a sledgehammer, with a blanket, and that shit started. A whole little hole came.

I was in jail more than all that shit. You know what I'm saying. So like that's. But so when in jail you were with everybody from everywhere. That's why I got niggas from everywhere. I remember I first went upgraded for the first time. You know E Block, 800 people on E Block, 800 people. That shit is big. Oh, oh, a thousand people called me. The guard said who is you? I said nobody man. I mean because I was locked up with so many niggas from some offices, from foster homes to juvenile placements, to the certified.

Speaker 2:I got in a fight in the movie 69th street movies with some boy, got booked that day. They said he could. So the black judge was so mad he's like I'm about to get this boy 10 years for this shit. So the white boy, I should lock you up, get out my courtroom. And he threw another case I had out, just on a strength, I mean. So I had one case left and I'm like, damn, I'm telling my man, zach holmes, shout out, rest in peace. That comes my celly.

Speaker 4:So you come home from the army, get popped.
Speaker 2:Then get locked up, then get locked up. So I'm like asking God, like yo, bro, what's up with you? Bro, you know what I mean, because it's kind of the same thing happening.
Speaker 4:All right, this is crazy. So, like I told you, I was like, so you went in jail in a wheelchair.
Speaker 2:Yeah, in a wheelchair, yeah, so, but before that, like you know, my life was like something good happened and something terrible happened. Yeah, something good happened to me, so I'm going to be here. I ain't doing no crime, some stability, yeah, but it wasn't meant to be. But the same thing with my dad. When my dad came and got me, he took me to Texas. I'm living good. He's making me breakfast every morning, my school popping. I got all these friends. They're all white though, but we bob, we got to listen to the lights. They're all white, they're all. My dad was like I don't know how you're going to adjust it because we're in Arlington, texas. He said I don't know how you're going to adjust man, just try to adjust man.
Speaker 2:I don't need to adjust. I got to pop it In the morning. Listen In the morning time. I'm going to school. Ten niggas knocking on the door Well, they white. Oh, come on, we're going to school. I loved, I gotta go back to the bullshit. But mind you, now when I'm back to North Philly, it was like the dirtiest shit to me. It's like different. I could believe it. Not only that, it was November. I had on shorts. When I got off the Greyhound bus Freezing, I said what the fuck?
Speaker 1:I said oh, my God Text is it don't get gold.
Speaker 2:I said, bro, I'm about to, I don't give a fuck, I'm gonna do whatever. I'm gonna start doing whatever. After that, I like fuck it. I feel like it's like you try to do good, then the shit happens. I'll just control it. That you can't. You know what I mean, but what it is, what it is, I know now is you getting pushed a certain way?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean you think it was over a dice game, but it was more to it. Somebody said something that you ain't had nothing to do with it.
Speaker 2:My problem was still short, like I got shot. I lost hope. You know what I mean. Yeah, I lost hope. I ain't gonna front Like. I was scared to kill myself, though, but I ain't gonna front like it.
Speaker 2:I'm scared to kill myself, though, but I care if somebody killed me though you know me like that, I was like that I am a it's like you flag man. And then you know what? Because I would attack boy like this, I'm not messing with no girl if I got no money. I ain't got no shit. Like, I don't even want to got time to be doing none of that shit I mean so like, I mean you might have some shit like man, it's no need. I don't even know what I'm living for, to be honest with you. But then you got to find some type of hope. I had a daughter. She was born right when I got shot, rob Markman Jr. Okay, you mean, she's 27 now.
Speaker 3:She's in Japan right now, actually Rob.
Speaker 2:Markman Jr. Yeah, that's fine motivation.
Speaker 3:My first motivation that was like that song right there is like part of our life, right there.
Speaker 1:What song?
Speaker 3:That song.
Speaker 2:Two of the movie go up there. Come on.
Speaker 4:I told you it was in the deleted scenes on state property.

Speaker 4:If you go to the deleted scenes you get to see the titties and the ass and all that. I was on some shit back then we shot that movie.
Speaker 2:We shot that movie. It's like three years for it to come out. So we telling people I told them I did a movie. They're like man, what the hell. One day I know that she was in a Right on this box. They was smoking in the movie.
Speaker 3:Bro, I went to go see it in the movies.
Speaker 2:I went to the movies to see it. So I'm in the movies. My job's still not used to being nobody knowing me because they don't internet shit out. So we come out the movie, everybody looking at me. I'm like what the fuck boy? They keep staring at me Like oh, nigga, you in the fucking movie. Nigga Like nigga. You stay Like fuck it.

You mean, the nigga that's really be out here rapping, really be out here streaming for real, for real. So it was like whoa shut the fuck. Where the fuck did you start rapping? What the fuck just happened? Where did you start rapping? We didn't. I mean. So it's like a crazy thing. They're like where the fuck did you start rapping, bro? I mean because it was out of nowhere to them, because I never rapped Nowhere.
Speaker 4:I used to see Freeway rapping all the time, right, different places and shit. Yeah, I mean, boom, I want to get you a deal. Wham, next day, put me in a hotel before I get killed in Philly.

Speaker 4:But boom, something happened.
Speaker 2:The shit is everything.
Speaker 4:And then the world shut down.
Speaker 2:And I just got a joke too.
Speaker 3:I just almost missed it Before you go in. Oh right, cause I know you about to go in on this part. How was your homies that you used to be doing your little licks with how they reacted when they knew you rapped Well, a lot of them was upstate right.
Speaker 2:I asked my man, aki Jones, shout out to Ike. He upstate still now. He said I was in the hole Right by XXL I see you in there, like because I had to join in Me and Game was in there with some article about getting shot. He said I'm like this nigga, don't rap, fuck you, man.
Speaker 3:He said this nigga don't rap, bro.
Speaker 2:My man, oxo Crazy, said it took like 10 years to get my address because nobody would give it to him.
Speaker 3:I don't know they had to look at him like you ain't the biggest nigga Got me coming through the alley fucking my boots up. You got to do a lot of stuff, though bro I'm calling the troops up.
Speaker 2:I thought it was going to make some people proud of my family, but it made a lot of people don't like you more. So let me ask.
Speaker 4:You just went from not having, or not being able to do nothing for nobody, and having, and the next thing you know you one of the biggest niggas in the world Having your way too.
Speaker 1:You know what I mean. So I wanted to ask something I wanted you to like, because I'm going to keep it a bean. Some people don't know how to stay in their place. I know how to stay in mine. Y'all talking about stuff before like 96, 95. I got to be quiet for now, my God, but I wanted to ask this right. So now, since we had the shit time right, like the whole hot 97 stuff and everything that you're speaking on, you said who took you in a bad from himself and you mean so how did the state property like, how did the group think form?
Speaker 2:we were down in the hot 97, we all from philly, and they thought we knew each other. But we didn didn't. We was like really just spitting freestyle. We always did. It's just that New York was live on the radio. We did it for like two hours. We come out the radio station, everybody's talking about it. We like-.
Speaker 1:The joint that everybody know and see and all that yeah.
Speaker 2:I got back to Philly like three days later, every car, every store, every Bro, that she was everywhere, like every module. We went on a 14 city tour of that. So we go to be in new orleans, california, everywhere, and they know every word. They just don't know how we look, I mean.
Speaker 1:So that's like damn, that's just traveling I was doing a 14 city tour off the freestyle, off the free style radio, bro.
Speaker 2:Just mind you, there's no internet like none of that. It's like no, it was like word of mouth, bro, that she was, that she was, bro I remember I had a, um, I think I had a.
Speaker 3:It was a tape, you know that was, that's just so.
Speaker 2:Probably 20 million copies, bro. That's your question, bro.
Speaker 3:Bro, we're doing, you know, a tour for that this was the time when they said get y'all tapes ready bro, was it from the jump or y'all foreign state property later?
Speaker 1:was it from the no?
Speaker 2:no, they said y'all, we got to be together. We got scientists not together. But at that night they said y'all, niggas, we got to be together. We got to sign this night together. But at that night they said y'all sound good together, y'all like the Philly niggas, y'all all from Philly, boom, boom, boom. They put us together and that shit it worked. I mean because when our first CD came out, that shit just sold out of numbers not to get promoted, like that. I mean we could sell our show now you mean. I mean that. You mean this should have been 20 something years, like yeah. So it was like like for from philly to do anything like that at that time was like I mean it's like a miracle. It's a miracle like period. It's really a miracle. You know, this ain't new york, I mean, I don't record labels here, ain't no like that here, like so to get on period. Yeah, it's like a miracle. It's like maybe, like it was only like 10 people from philly on probably, I mean period.
Speaker 3:I mean, and with seven of them was us before we continue, I want y'all to share like subscribe comment.
Speaker 1:If you don't, use a hater because it's free you already know me cash.
Speaker 3:This is the part where we get to the meat and the potatoes.
Speaker 1:Man, oh, all right, meat potatoes all right. Bet, so you could do your little all, all right bet. So like listen, man, All right. So we got the Oskenov ass quest story. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5:We got the fast forward 99.
Speaker 1:You get signed Hot, 97. Now listen, right, I could ask you a bunch of base questions, you feel me, but we ain't doing that. I want to ask you real questions that you know that like the people really want to hear you know what I'm saying. So I notice when it come to Rockefeller, like in them days, a lot of people speak on like how people relationships was weird, like they always said jay-z and cam relationship was a little shaky. They always said, like you and mac was a little. You mean like right, so did that come from? Like the rapping competition thing, or people was really just not feeling each other, like both, I mean both, probably.
Speaker 2:I mean you being young. I mean I'm like I feel like nobody can't be my boss. You're not the boss man I get signed to be. You mean, I mean I just didn't like the fact that they had made him the boss of the property, like man, he ain't the boss of me. Yeah, that's my. I mean that's who I took it at that time. You mean, as a young person, I mean like I'm like I came up the hard way too. You know what I mean. Like because I was on the Hard.
Speaker 2:Knock Life Tour. Being on the Hard Knock Life Tour. I was on the Hard Knock Life Tour too, just with DMX yeah. You know, what I'm saying. So I'm like nigga. So you know, plus you know, two alpha males, two niggas, that's like for like their being so like. Everybody else could fall in line. I couldn't Right so like. But he was more famous. But that's part of being young. If I was older I probably would've acted different.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like you probably would've Just understood the assignment.
Speaker 2:Yeah, probably you know what I mean, or maybe not Real rap.
Speaker 1:Maybe not Real rap, so so Alright. So State Property 1. That was the, the first CD Y'all came about with. Yeah, like you didn't release anything On Rockefeller Besides that Before the, you didn't release anything on Rockafella besides that before this right the two CDs and a little other miscellaneous shit.
Speaker 2:So what I did start doing before it most people don't know. I put out mixtapes every seven months. This is back when you could sell them and get money off this shit. You could really make a living off of it. You know what I mean. Tomorrow you supplying all the stores this is something that had a lot of record stores, all the stands shipping. Tomorrow you can make hundreds of thousands of dollars off your mixtapes. So I started seeing that I said, oh shit, this is a good hustle. It was almost like selling drugs, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:So I started doing that. I put out, I think, 17 of them. You know some shit like that no-transcript. You was gonna sell drugs right so everybody around you like. You mean so like. It was like, it was like. I mean automatically kinda, you mean so like. But I always, I always hustle so like. That's why I always had like extra, extra, extra, I mean paper type I. I mean I always wanted to start up with a brick and shit like that, but I never had one.
Speaker 3:Now you start getting some paper, you go man. I didn't want a brick.
Speaker 5:I just didn't bow. You know what?
Speaker 2:I mean, sure, I don't want no kids out there to do this, and I'm just telling you what I did. I mean, it's not glorifying it, but it's like that's what I knew and I was good at that. So I was, plus you, scared to go back to being broke.
Speaker 1:I mean you don't want to be very serious.
Speaker 2:You be poor shit, then you get some money and get fucked up again. That's like. That's like a nightmare, yeah, I mean. But I said I've never nightmare that one day I'm go to the studio and not be able to think of nothing, but I have all these reps in my pocket papers. I mean that's a breakdown right there. Like man, you professional, you gotta do this shit for real. Ain't no days coming in there, you ain't you gotta have, you gotta be on point every day. Yeah, so, even though it never happened to me, I just love one of my fears like what's that going?
Speaker 3:I can't think of no, like you mean so it's happening now with the professional one, and that never happened to me, though.
Speaker 1:So besides your 100 events in your deal. People like to talk about the negative a lot and we like to share like, share light on the positive. What was the most share like share light on the positive. What was the most like, even if it's revenue? Or like, oh yeah, we at this height of, uh, popularity, what was the most successful part?
Speaker 2:that's the thing for me, right, even though you're going on tour here and there doing stuff like that, right, you're making money. Every month you make money, but at the beginning of the month you get five thousand just automatically.
Speaker 2:Anyway, I mean period, every month just for being signed yeah, yeah, if I think, if I thought I was like, I mean it was like so that, pay your bills, they pay your phone bill, they pay you two way. I mean you have clothes, you got everybody wearing rock and stay properly closed. That's uh, it's free. I mean that's the everything you want. Basically, you spoil you for real, like I mean you, just you spoil you, but the internet was out. It should have been over, bro. It would have been over, bro. You know what I'm saying? Listen, I don't have no complaints about that, because at the end of the day I'm like man, shit, my rent only was like not even $1,000, bro At first. Right, so I moved, but still you're getting five bands. You know what I mean. So now you can pay a girl, you can pay people out. I mean I drunk 40s. I never smoked 40s two dollars, eat chicken wings.
Speaker 2:I mean I haven't really had to put that one you mean about. You mean until I started buying hot cars and shit like that. Yeah, bro, I didn't even know about credit. I didn't know about none of that. I ain't know. I know I thought you the buy car, that you had to get how much you cost and go buy it. I never, I mean I, bro, I know about a car note too. Like I got like 30, bro, because people ain't talking about like that.
Speaker 2:I I guess they assume that you know my manager wanted me to get my Jaguar, my XK8. I got all this bread and I'm like why the fuck do I have all that money on you? I'm like, bro, I'm about to buy the car. He's like man, give me that money. He took my money and he swiped it on his credit card and the little receipt came out, like when you buy a whole game from the poppy store the little receipt. I said what like that? What the fuck? Teach me all that shit. How the fuck you do that. You know what I mean. I'm going in there with a whole 70-something bands and go. You know what I mean. He's like, bro, you draw it. Like you know what I mean. So I was a nigga from the streets for real. I ain't know what you mean Because I never went to high school.
Speaker 1:I never went to none of that. Go back a little bit, then we could. What was your? What was your like? Your infatuation with dmx and love riders like why?
Speaker 2:why you love them so much. I love them because they were successful and dmx remind me like a person I can relate to from the streets okay the niggas don't be for niggas be acting. Niggas that rap, that you'll meet them. They like not from the streets. Yeah, they, they rap like they are, but they they meet them in real life. They'd be like these niggas this nigga's a fucking sucker.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I mean so like DMX was how you come across, and I'm going to add on to what he said how did you end up on tour with them?
Speaker 2:My man, hip Dog, the nigga, who I my homie's manager, he that boy. Shout out to Hip Dog he still that boy right now he got he Yonkers Legend. I mean my bro never did all good business with me, took care of me. We in Ohio, we in North Carolina, we everywhere. And I'm talking about I was never used to being home anyway, I didn't really have a home, I was like a nomad, so I'd be on the road with me, going whatever. I mean, I ain't had nothing to miss, I ain't no girl, none of that shit. So I was just trying to get to it. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:You know, sometimes you have a girl a wrong girl it.
Speaker 4:So it's like hot. Nine, seven come out right and boom, everybody know you.
Speaker 2:It's like hot, how that felt from they know me, though they know how I look.
Speaker 4:All right, yeah right.
Speaker 2:They hear me. They mean you're seeing the place you don't even know that's you, so you mean.
Speaker 4:By hearing you because, like hot, nine, seven come out, that shit was an air by tape that everybody see the players like, that's like the, like CD players, that's like the state property. Basically like coming out party of everybody, hearing y'all together.
Speaker 3:Then the DVD came out.
Speaker 4:Yeah, then the movie.
Speaker 3:No, no, not the movie I'm talking about them up the radio, up the radio station. Yeah, you could visualize, and then you start seeing a lot of other DVDs.
Speaker 1:He touched on that when you was gone. He touched on that, bro, I brought it.
Speaker 2:You know what's crazy? I remember Petey was in Miami. Petey was like oh, you got a MySpace, what the fuck is that? He said MySpace, you talk to people on the computer. I said you talk to people on the computer, for what? Even in MySpace? You wasn't understand, bro. I did not Understand this shit. Like who, what am I talking to him about? Like who the fuck? You know what I mean. So I didn't get it, bro. It took me Too late to get that shit To understand it.
Speaker 1:To my Facebook. They knew, you ain't know. You said Petey said Petey said something About my standpoint. Yo Petey released Some fucking music. Yeah right, you burning me out.
Speaker 2:You know, I brung, yeah, yeah, yeah, huh I brought peter to state property. You know, you know that I see pete. I remember because me and pete was being ciphers and he from freeway neighborhood, though why would freeway bring you up there?
Speaker 1:I wasn't at the freestyle lever there gotta be five parts with this dude, bro.
Speaker 2:Bro, listen too much to cover, bro I'm by community college, though on 17 spring guard. I see pete got my rock channel. I'm like I'm on here. I think he's got a county jail or something. Yeah, like, bro, I'm on, I gotta bring you up there, bro, they. They see me, you can get on. He like I'm with these bulls named uh, aunt furlough and I'm from south philly. They had no strength now I mean. So I went over to the studio. We did a couple songs. I said, pete, just come up there with us. Every time we go up there, anything we do, just come with us. Man basically forced him on in the in the drawing. I mean he was hiding to me. I just there's flow. Now this was crazy. Another state property member all right.
Speaker 1:So so I want, I want to move forward a little bit. So we had the state property, uh, cds and things like that state property one and two, the uh no changing with changing something, yeah, part two, and the movies was coming out while that was coming out, right, so in that moment, like you're rolling the movies, you're rolling the, because you, like you said, you is like state prop, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4:Yeah, yeah, suckin', lee and Rollin' basically.
Speaker 1:Right, so so, so so with that success. Like you had children at the time, right yeah so, just like you know the way the success come in, being from Philadelphia, we don't have much success dealing with fatherhood, dealing with being a famous rapper at this point. How was that for you?
Speaker 2:like I carry myself, like a famous person ever. Never. I've been a hip to. I'm in the two-seater by myself every day, everywhere, you know so because I feel like, like don't music don't make you famous, you've been a teacher or something like that, somebody, something that really make a difference. I mean I don't. So I never looked at myself especially because of that. I looked at myself especially for other reasons to me, because I care, I really want the same thing I want for myself is from for other. You know what I mean, right, a lot of people not like that. You know what I mean. So if I'm getting money and I'm all happy and you around me and you ain't got no money, I can't really even be happy.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm not even happy.
Speaker 2:no more Niggas don't even be mindful. That's how you get wrapped up. Let me see if that's the type of stuff I always wanted to be able to do.
Speaker 4:The type of that, a young boy. You're gonna remember what happened in a couple of stories you've been had one homie had no teeth.
Speaker 2:I said you're gonna get you too, you're gonna get up here.
Speaker 3:Hattie, you've been in a couple stories up here yo, yo, hey.
Speaker 2:well man, I said bro, I. I said bro, how you got no teeth, bro, like you can get, like you ain't got no teeth. I said, it just don't even matter, you got no teeth, she's going to take care of you too. I mean, it don't matter.
Speaker 5:Wait what I mean?
Speaker 2:basically the shortest thing, because you can do it all by yourself. I mean just whatever, I got you all.
Speaker 4:I mean dude, that's my first day. Like, we got some talk, we got some talk, we got some talk, but I had the homies.
Speaker 2:I had the homies. When I had the homies, I got to say I got to like I got to have this whole squad pop.
Speaker 3:Oh, wow I got to meet y'all.
Speaker 2:I'm like yo say he a rapper I'm like oh, y'all, got y'all oh five, oh six.
Speaker 3:The first time I met me it was bad on joey, I remember like that she was crazy. When, when, when I think you came home or something. I always was coming home, I stayed with you and you was like grabbing all the youngins yeah, yeah, that was wrapping around the city and you was actually asking why y'all not?
Speaker 2:yeah, you're not doing it, nobody else was doing it, that there was like under status us. That's known because then when I, my music was everywhere, there was every city, every every everywhere what changed?
Speaker 2:what you mean philly well from now on and then like but philly well, see back then it was the same thing. There was no unity back then like that. It was like a lot of like beef, like that, yeah that's why he was so looked at for doing it yeah, I'm in the car. I'm in the car with mick mills, Right, and I said I'm about to go to the studio. Nh called me. He, like you want to go to the drop me off. I'm like for what we got a problem.
Speaker 5:Y'all got a problem.
Speaker 2:You're. Nh Took him to the studio Like man, what the fuck? So and he called his little homies, whatever it was. Y'all niggas got to fix it, y'all got to fix it. So I took them to this room like a balcony joint. When they finished talking, they came out. We did the song. It was like me, nh Kaboom, all the homies on the song. That song is on one of my mixtapes and they've been cool ever since when it could have really been some shit, so like that's. I was like big brother to all the like. I mean, that's basically like that. You need something? Just call me yeah, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:That's the system. Like I'm not your manager, I don't want nothing. I got to get money. I don't need nothing from you. I mean just just win, that's it. If I get up, you can make my tickets. If we all up, if one of us fall off and I'm the only one getting money, we're done, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1:So I want to ask you something, right? You've been through, so See, this is the thing, right.
Speaker 3:This is crazy.
Speaker 1:This is crazy, bro, because me and you are alike in a lot of ways, bro. I'm just not your age yet. You feel me. So there's a whole other part of me that I ain't even see yet, that you have saw what I'm saying, but the whole story about your teenage and that's my whole job like placements to all that. So this is what I learned that you grow and you become different.
Speaker 2:Probably like every decade, you're a whole different person, and that's how life meant to be if you're paying attention to certain things and accepting certain things and well, you're gonna be past me, though, because the way your age, the way you talk, I couldn't speak like how you could talk when I at your age yeah I wasn't.
Speaker 2:I wasn't that advanced like that. I mean I just think I I should think a lot, but I wasn't talking because, like we're raising in prisons, like you don't really talk like that, because you don't think that's where you got it from though.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know what I mean. Like like Glenn Mills and all. That's how I learned how to be respectful.
Speaker 2:Yeah, glenn Mills, I ain't going to go, I ain't going to go, I'm going to go to Quest.
Speaker 1:Because, Glenn Mills, you know he beat your ass.
Speaker 2:Real crazy. That probably would have changed. Question you sleep outside that, the, let alone. What vision. Question you sleep outside, intense, if you're there for two years. You sleep on this outside, on the ground, bro, and they're sleeping back. Why don't you see me back? For two years, bro, you walk from from pennsylvania to oklahoma, florida oh, you was in virginia, south maryland. No, it was called. It was called medicine, it was like bro, I was up there, I was the wagon train, bro, I was in grove city.
Speaker 1:No, we ain't gonna get into the jail. Listen, it's the story. You eat the same breakfast I was in Groove City. No, we ain't going to get into the jail. Type of drawings, let me say this Listen, it's a story.
Speaker 2:You eat the same breakfast and lunch every day. The only thing different is the wagon train. Breakfast and lunch is the same every day. What was the main? The only thing changed is dinner. Breakfast is I mean, I don't eat peanut butter and jelly. Now, lunch is peanut butter and jelly, like you got to feed. So this is how it go. We walk 20 miles or 15 miles driving the mules and some people walk in, go to the next camp, set up the TPs, go to sleep. You do that all the way down the East Coast. You know what I mean, bro. You take a shower once a week. You get a phone call every 21 days who going to visit you. Where the vision?
Speaker 1:This the real vision question. This the shit. This the real vision question.
Speaker 2:You know where you get a home pass If you got 10 years, 5 years, a juvenile life. You get a home pass two weeks before you're about to get out. So I had indefinite, so I didn't know when I was getting out, just so you could fuck up.
Speaker 6:So you could fuck up and get booked.
Speaker 2:But listen, I remember. Listen, this is crazy, bro. I've never seen TV in so long. So when they finally get to see TV, I mean you'll be outside so long Before you go home. You got to go to this place called Residential. It's a house, so you get used to being in a house Because you ain't been in a house in years. You go in the house, you feel like you're claustrophobic. Right, the TV was in there and I see OJ. I'm like that's the time OJ went to trial.
Speaker 2:I was in adult prison. I'm getting out when he's getting chased. By the time the nigga was going to trial, I'm booked for a robbery. So I got a vision course. I went straight back to jail again. You know what I mean, mind you, you were in there for two years. I was in there two years. You ain't seen nobody. No visits, no mom, no dad, none of that type of shit in the woods. You'd be lost, for that just took two years of your whole. Like you, you mean you, I got, but locked up, the was out. Throw you guys in the air. Remember the onyx I got. When I got out, biggie was out. I'm like who the is? Biggie, I mean not that I know all the rappers what the is. Crack, mac you mean, because you don't get to see you there. None of that, bro I mean. So so, like vision, quest was different and it's hands-on, they you up yeah, yeah I mean I got my arm broke up.
Speaker 2:Sorry, I ain't saying no, but it was my fault. That's because you're obviously more than said Real pious, nice white boy, me being a young dickhead, kept playing with him. I ain't touching you. See, I ain't touching you. He said don't touch me. I kept having my finger like this to him right.
Speaker 2:All these young boys that don't think never said nothing to us about that shit. Right, twist my shit. I'm in the hospital. I said this nigga, this nigga, so humble and quiet he be sitting. I'm like that's why he be sitting there, like that he be. Like this nigga, he go fucking karate butt cut the foot. I said this shit is great. You know what I mean. He broke my shit.
Speaker 1:You know what I mean. So so you know, we at after state property, and then I've went. I really want to go back on the whole dame dash, the whole thing. It's just a lot. Well, oh, you feel me, oh, but I really wanted to ask you this before I ask you any other question.
Speaker 1:You know the way life go, you feel me, we become different people. Same name, same social security number, but if you really go through certain experiences and take certain things, then we become different people. So what I want to ask you is we know oh ski, no, for, like us, meek said it first person who showed me I was oh ski, no, we hear stories all the time cheek always standing on broad and something, something. Oh ski, no, the one who put me in a car, haddy, um, yeah, for sure, everybody like it's like, everybody who was like popping at that time is always oscino. So I wanted to ask you like 100, do you think you that already was instilled in you or you think that the things that you went through with jay-z and death jam and state property made you like that? No?
Speaker 2:it's just my life, like I mean, because I remember my first foster home used to be I had a homie named jose. That's when I was like a kid kid, we both was kids, kids. There was a girl and I was gonna be listening and I mean and she used to come in our room and could take him out the room and and I said, always want to do, she was, she was like 16. We was like nine, I mean, and I should always be trying to bait like we should not get taken for him. I mean I never had a little brother, all my brothers, older than me, right? So I mean, so, like anybody younger than me, I just always feel like I take, I look out for you, I mean that's just. I just always been since I was a. You know what I mean. So, like if a nigga younger than me, I give him I'd do the same thing I would do for my little brother.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean, little brother. You can't charge him no money for nothing. Like my man, deezy, I ran into TLA on South Street. I had a show. I was charging him $1,000. I opened up, deezy brought me $1,000.

They try to cut you out and do shit like that to you because that's why I just be falling back like I mean because I can't, I mean because it's so soft like you call me, like oh, what the you did to me? I ain't like it. Like my is a young boy. He got a clothing line. He said he said that we had an argument, right, I, I didn't think it was an argument, but I talked to him. I said yo, if I feel like that, I apologize to you because it ain't like that. I mean, you're my young boy, but some people don't know how. They just think you're trying to be bad at them or something Right.
Speaker 3:But see when I was growing up that's how I always talked to you. I do that a lot.
Speaker 2:When he talk him out. But you know what that's? People that love you the most. Like me, you give me a million dollars. You, my man, I might take a stack out and I'm going to tell you I took a stack, bro. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. Like you ain't got to worry about no fucking that fagging sneaky around shit. Like you know what I mean. They think it's me sneaking around, man, I don't care.
Speaker 1:So they don't like think I, because I told you. But they know I'm effectuated with hip-hop. I think I heard this out of everybody mouth, but yours like, like, when it come to interviews, the death of a dynasty man, yeah, damn, yeah, jay-z, I don't even know what side biggs was on in that few um. All right, then that does this even more up now that y'all said that.
Speaker 2:But yeah, he hated. He hated jay-z more than dame did what they said he hated jay-z more than dame.
Speaker 4:That what they say is is that that, that um hov wanted to get rid of biggs, that Hov wanted to get rid of Biggs? Dane was like I'm not this, my man from Harlem. I'm not. No, I'm not doing that. Know what I mean?
Speaker 2:That's the original my thing. I was just heard about it because I just seen three people that was rich Like richer than any black people I've seen in my life Any black man yeah, bro, if you seen this shit, bro, to see it with your own eyeballs, the money was.
Speaker 1:So was it really like they said, like that some people go dang way and some people go whole way, or all people, really Everybody? Went whole way, except for me, for some reason, when I was a young boy Get the fuck out of here, hold on hold, on hold, on Hold on yeah.
Speaker 2:How, what you mean? How I mean when the Dame was like oh, I don't got no record label, I ain't doing no music shit. I said bruh, I'm getting money already, I just want to fucking get it. I mean, so I just hang with Dame everywhere, Everybody's with me.
Speaker 4:What was the DVD and all that?
Speaker 2:Damn. I asked Dame to get on the seat. Dame came in my trousers to stand for me. Bro, dame, no, dipset wasn't doing their own thing. They ain't even done that. That was already like they ain't even have a record label, really. You know, the Young Guns put out their second album. But my thing is, I didn't be so famous, you didn't really need a record label. You're somebody, you already a brand already.
Speaker 1:But on Watch the Dome, jay-z and Kanye John. There's a track called why why I love you. And uh, jay-z said I try to teach how to be the king and all they ever want to do is be a soldier. Was that true?
Speaker 2:like was people too young and they wanted to like the could take cool raps, but he's not a cool person talk about anybody could say cool rap, that's a cool quote.
Speaker 2:You mean like, my thing is that don't resonate to me when I see you and see what you do right I mean, and this ain't no doubt, I thought he saved my life, but at the same time I still got to call a spade a spade, like. I mean, like, at the end of the day, I mean, you do stuff like this. That's not thorough. If I tell y'all to go shoot us in my house, right, did I get back cool with the? And don't make the cool with y'all and y'all don't want to shut up his house. I'm a sucker. I put y'all in a line of fire and I'm going to make up with this nigga and this nigga still wants y'all heads. That's how he did when he told us to come at Nas. I don't know Nas, I ain't never. I mean yo, what? What y'all?
Speaker 1:ain Yo, I swear to God, I be telling you it's just street things and then it's just man etiquette. You tell us to diss this nigga, we don't know this nigga?
Speaker 2:I don't know this nigga. I don't got a problem with this nigga at all he straight told y'all just go at him, but it's the Hot 97 to do that, just that you know what I'm saying. So when you get back cool with him, why don't you?
Speaker 3:But without us Nas probably wouldn't be whole Whole, probably wouldn't even be whole for who he is right now.
Speaker 2:I didn't even notice that that y'all was going in on all Queens beats and all that, but we didn't know what beats they were putting on, whatever beats they were putting on. But JC set it up for us to come down there and do what we did.
Speaker 4:But my thing is, bro, it's not like y'all know what the fuck it is.
Speaker 2:What did? He killed that cousin. Act like he killed your cousin. See what I'm saying. You know what I mean. But my thing is this you did all this shit right when your career was on the line.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean. I told you I seen you was rocking the rock chain and all that shit. I would never wear it because how you got rock chain and hitting the game, he had a little lunch type of shit I mean to me. So they niggas scared to talk about it Like I'm not. You know what I mean. Like I mean you got. If I got a billion dollars, I'm not going to have a daughter somewhere she left out. I'm not going to have a son. I got a billion dollars. I mean they're automatically rich. You got a billion dollars, bro. I ain't trying to. You can't. Really You're not a better person than me. You know what I'm saying. Nigga don't got no money. He don't got no money, no money to take care of him. That's one thing, bro. You got all the money In the world. That's different To me. I'm looking like Nigga. How can I look up to you?
Speaker 3:I don't want to be like you. I don't want to be like fuck all that other shit.
Speaker 2:You got your kids with Beyonce. That's all you talk about. I mean, you're not gross If y'all got daughters, y'all know a girl Girls really is a daughter.
Speaker 4:Yeah, that's a daughter.
Speaker 2:Absolutely. That girl looks just like him, bro, and it's not dope Listen, but this is what I'm saying. If you know girls, daughters, they got two daughters.
Speaker 3:So who's got a daughter he not taking care of?
Speaker 2:We might take care of her now on the low, but she not even getting, she won't even acknowledge it, you know, like in her 30s right. Yeah, it's like. I think she's like, yeah, like late 20s, something like that. She was in Southern Maryland, yes, maryland.
Speaker 3:I'm talking about, bro. I'm just the lethal to that.
Speaker 1:So when you?
Speaker 3:said Maryland, it's just like.
Speaker 2:Salisbury Maryland, yeah, salisbury Maryland, we ain't going to do that.
Speaker 3:No, no, no.
Speaker 2:What I'm saying is this I don't want to be like you, right, money-wise. I wouldn't even want to be like you because I wouldn't have that much money, just to say that I'm a billionaire. I don't care about none of that shit, because life's short. When you start getting to a certain age, you're like, damn, I'm about to be dead soon. What difference are you going to make? I mean because none of your kids are going to be in this world. You want your kids to only want to be rich.
Speaker 3:That's a target. We're going to have security. Maybe it's like when I grew up, like in a generation where, like a lot of people ain't take care of their kids.
Speaker 2:But listen, if you got a billion, they ain't have a billion dollars though.
Speaker 3:No, they ain't have a billion dollars. That's the difference. They ain't have a billion. They would have took all of it.
Speaker 2:Of course people don't take care of their kids. That's what I mean. You ain't got it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you ain't got it. This is one of those type of Jones like when you cheat on your wife or you cheat on somebody or something you can't bring that kid home.
Speaker 2:Bro, listen, when you got a billion dollars, you can do anything you want. Right, you only got to be there. You can get somebody to be the dad. Yeah, you going to be her dad, all right, you can do anything, you can do anything you want. You're not understanding, bro.
Speaker 1:You can do anything. You all know is today, then bro listen bro.
Speaker 2:He always had that. Yeah, bro, you could bro bro listen to you a hundred million dollars money.
Speaker 3:See, this is what I'm talking about. See, I'm going back to mental health. His popping wasn't in his life, but you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 2:I'm going back to that.
Speaker 3:But my thing is that you but let's say you got a hundred million dollars- but that's where he clicking in his head because it happened, but that made me not look up to you.
Speaker 2:I can't look up to you.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I can't look up to that. I don't give a fuck about that.
Speaker 2:But you can look up to your other kids. I mean, I don't One of the things. We got a billion dollars. If you got 10 million dollars, 10 million, fuck this, my kid, I don't give a if I see you or not. You rich, that's my thing is you just rich, period. I don't gotta like you and then I gotta see you, but I'm rich, so you gotta be rich okay, I can't out here not rich, that'll make me look crazy.
Speaker 4:I mean, yeah, so like you, always been like somebody that um that always gave the game like you always been informative and gave the information, like, give me that part of you and why? Why you always do it like, why you always have that.
Speaker 2:Because I never look at people as competition. I don't look like, oh, if I give you this, you're going to pass me.
Speaker 2:I don't give a fuck about all that, because whatever God got for you, he's going to have for you anyway, you know what I'm saying, my whole thing is this I just want to be able to look in the mirror and know I love myself to death because I knew the shit I did for people. I don't care if nobody else don't know. I know People forget that. They don't know that they worry about what people are going to think, what they're going to say. If you don't let yourself first, that shit don't even matter. You let people fake you. They don't even know if they're going to let it real you, because you'll never be real to yourself You're scared to say this I'm not doing all that, I'm not pussyfooting around. Even if I had to eat trash, I don't give a fuck. I'm still going to be me. You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 2:Yeah, but my thing is this though when you really believe in God, no matter what your religion is, you always feel like you're always going to have it. If you have a way enough, you're never going to be like lot of money for a long time. If you ain't got $100 million, you're going to spend it. I mean period. You know, when you're young you're like man, that's. But I always had it, even when I was a kid. I always had it. God always provided for me.
Speaker 1:I mean because I ain't going it. You mean, so let me ask you this, right, because that's what I said, like your legacy is. So your legacy is so much of a like fruitful genre where you see, like you got signed in 99 and rockefeller pride or your state property pride, like 2004, 2005, 06, when there was like an end to it, and you see we already passed that Like with you. I don't got to talk about this year to this year.
Speaker 4:It's like keep going, you know what.
Speaker 1:I mean, right, yeah, for sure. So from that, like we already passed, like Dame and Jay-Z falling out, and then after that, so so I want to ask you right, you already said it like well, hov, like understand completely why you looked at him the way you looked at him. And when we was talking about Mack earlier, you was just like you just ain't like the fact that they made him the boss of Rockefeller, like you got signed and I mean, but y'all didn't have a real problem. So when did you and Mac problem come?
Speaker 2:like it's always like. I just feel like I just felt like he wasn't the genuine, wasn't a genuine person like he was, like a man. I just ain't like, like we just ain't like each other really I mean be honest I wasn't like, it wasn't no super thing.
Speaker 3:I mean, I don't know what really, why I think you kind of said it like because you had your own deal already. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're putting me with these guys.
Speaker 2:I don't mean we don't get along, even if they don't know they still be doing shit to me. I mean even to this day. I mean but, but, but I'm learning.
Speaker 2:I don't get to try to react to stuff different I mean, because what happens is none of that shit at all. Whatever you say, that's what it is. You know what I mean. But my thing is this when I get motivated, I pass everybody. Because I write songs, I get busy. You know what I mean. Niggas don't really get busy. They still run off with the old shit. You know what I mean. And this ain't no shade, this ain't I know everybody. You know what I mean. But I just think when you powerful, you got presence about yourself, they don't want you around because they can't be they self.
Speaker 3:All right, one thing I want to say like you inspire me because the way you talk and you articulate yourself and you pretty much you know like you speak up. You know, what I'm saying. You don't hold nothing back, you don't speak up. But I want to know, like some of these times, like some of those situations you've been through, like, do you like look back and be like, damn, I could have did?
Speaker 2:that another way, yeah, for sure but that's how you learn right. I mean I don't like what I, but it never was the time I said did something like I should have did it. I should have did it differently, differently, yeah I could have went another way but.
Speaker 2:But it wasn't meant for it to happen like that was meant to happen. Exactly how it happened, you know, because, at the end of the day, if you, if you, live a perfect life, you're never gonna learn that so so so you and uh and the breakup, you basically going going like leaning towards dame, but they broke up madder than you, because you worked plus, I was getting money at the time most of my life at the time.
Speaker 2:you mean, I was rolling, so was rolling, so much that shit ain't matter. At that point I'm on some whole other type of shit.
Speaker 4:Bust an old part.
Speaker 2:I'm getting 10 bricks and 200 bands. But what happened was, let me tell you where my life took a switch. It's kind of what y'all are leaning towards. I was in Dallas, about to get out 2015. I'm in my cell, mind you, the whole time I'm in my cell, mind you, the whole time I'm in jail, I'm thinking I'm going to come out and hustle. I'm not going to say the whole time, but more than half I'm going to do this. That's my whole mentality. I'm inside my cell Every other Sunday. I say watch Lifetime. I sit in my cell, watch Lifetime. My shit buzz. Two guards come in.
Speaker 2:I'm like what the want to do it? Yeah, man, and if I don't do it, I'm about to go home soon. I'm gonna get I mean, you can't make the roll stripping in there. And and for some reason, I don't know why, this day, this day, hurt me. Man. I was like, mind you just sell, like the size of a Dallas sells, small as shit. Like two niggas in there, white boy, they throwing your shot, they naked in there, like. And I just felt like I don't know what. I just bothered me so much this day but I said I can't do this shit no more. So I started in the plane. What can I do? I said I'm gonna go home and be a regular person. I'm gonna go to school for something. I'm gonna go. I already had my barber license from in there. I'm gonna go, you mean, and I don't care.
Speaker 2:Fuck with nobody you was yeah I don't care what nobody think, right, I mean, and I came home with this all-state trucking school, right, and I had to pop in there have, have my little they were all young and shit right and try to be regular, but it just wasn't meant for me. I mean, I do school, go to get a job. They said we can't use you, like what, because, like I said, like when you think you got a plan, they don't got nothing to do with you.
Speaker 1:That's what's MPA.
Speaker 2:But I came home and it back. So to not make that call was like it took like everything out, yeah, everything. You know what I mean. And so the girl you're living with you hate it. You hate this, bro. I was more happy in jail than when I first came home. That's you like. I'm like man. I should have just stayed the in jail, okay, this, like you're on parole, you can't tiptoe in.
Speaker 2:The parole is different from probation Parole. You get caught pissing in the alley, you go upstate. You get driving without a license you go upstate. You got a beer in your refrigerator. You go upstate. Somebody sitting on your step smoking you go upstate. I mean any little thing. You go to prison. I'm talking about. You do anything and it's like I'm old want you to pay all this money. So I'm, but I was, you know, a girl. Then if you got with the wrong person, they come like yo the whole parole over your head. You can't. I mean you just gotta be careful. That's why I stopped drinking when I came home. It's like I can't make. I remember this, though. This is what I remember.
Speaker 2:What did you say? I'm going to say what happened. Listen. The boy, jimmy the Saint, got me locked up Right For a homicide. Yeah, he got me locked up for a homicide Right. And when I beat the homicide they were just trying to lock me up On my top, locking me up for everything, right. One day they picked me up and I'm going to the store. I I'm like yo. They locked me up, took me to the police station, got this lady to come look at me. I'm like what the fuck? You got this lady looking at me. She told me somebody raped her, right? I said fuck you all looking at me for Like, I mean this man's just late. I'm like 20-something still, this bitch like 50. I said, well, if I'm a rapist, well, I'm gonna rape her. She got these. The boy Jimmy D's thing got caught some work in his crib and he just put me under the bus right.
Speaker 2:I never knew he did that to me. 20 years later I never knew who did it right. So then I get so boom. So the boy tapped the back of my car and said I robbed him right, we ain't had no argument or nothing in that shit, right, delaney Foxworth, you know who he was right. So I lost that shit, lost the case against him. He said he tried to blackmail me for 10 bands. He said if you give me 10 bands, I'm going to say you robbed me, Right. So I was going to jail, but it's like for shit out of my control. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:Then the crazy part Anthony DeFino, the judge who locked me in for the robbery that I didn't do. He died in the fire. He married by name, he played with the Bentley, so we can't leave. I mean they got the shit taped off. So I'm parking the street. I just thousands of people out there. This movie's popping right street lounge, yeah, but run that way. But it's called something else. Then was the one across from the middle to it? You know it's to what? The one on the other, one on the right side matter of fact.
Speaker 2:I forgot about that. So spring garden, yeah, so. So beans was parked on the sidewalks. My and his Bentley did right, so the joint blocked off. So I'm in the park, I'm parked on the side street. Some boy, I'm in the parking spot. Somebody hit the back of my car. I'm like fuck, we're not even moving. Why you? We got the car. I'm in the rental though, so I ain't really give. I said boy, you broke the back light. He said give me. Days later the cops are like yo, we only talked to you about something. I'm like what, what? Come down there. The boy say he robbed me. I'm like robbed. When Then I see the boy on the court, he's like give me some bands. I'm going to say he robbed me. You know what I mean? Like I lost that shit Went to. I did my time. So every time I get booked I can't get out. On the entertainer, I can't get out. Yeah, it's a bullfuck. My whole shit up. They can't fix the felon and everything, bro.
Speaker 1:That is crazy bro.
Speaker 2:Delaney Foxworth is his name. He live in Delaware now.
Speaker 1:So look right, so we can't. I got like two more questions, but we can't even go any further, man.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we got to do a part two, bro. We going to have to, but listen to this though I want to say this one time, bro, oh Listen. Delaney.
Speaker 5:Foxworth though I thought you was about to say it. No, no, no, I was going to say something else, delaney.
Speaker 2:Foxworth, if you're watching this, bro, you got to. We can, though you got to make this.
Speaker 2:I mean on the court. He got on the stand and said yo, he ain't rob me, but he's been saying I robbed him for like a year. So when he said on the stand, right, the cops from my homicide case was in the courtroom yeah, the same thing happened to the homicide. He said he did it and they said he didn't do it, either he paying them off or he threatening them. Immediate custody. The judge said immediate custody.
Speaker 2:I found something fishy going on. Booked me on, book me right. No spot like that, right. But what I'm saying? That don't stand. That should be some type of way for me to better get that just sponged off.
Speaker 2:My I mean took off my like. I mean I've been a convicted felon now for that. She was like 2002 to champion. You mean so it's 20 something years. I mean that you know when you convict the felony, you can't live certain places in your name. You can't work in the hospital school. It sets your down from so many, so many things that you're forced to become you, forced to. I mean, and there's another nigga. A nigga did this to me. I'm talking about a nigga, a regular nigga. He can't leave without our show. I said I locked up a robber's mic for $60 at the show. I got to pay $5,000 for him. That don't even make sense and I fucking lost. Then the judge said I don't think you did this robbery. I think you did was a typical boy. So the oldest, jimmy the Saint, jimmy the Saint, I Correct, yeah, my manager brothers, they get put me in the studio and all that, bro, I hate bull because when the boy got killed it was a two of them.
Speaker 2:One guy killed one, didn't. The boy who didn't die. I kept reaching out to him cuz I forgot why you saying I did it he never will answer me did like three years ago he answered my Facebook. Talk to me, he's like man. He told me I saw the board Jimmy to say he answer on Facebook. Talk to me, he's like man. He told me. I said I found out the boy, jimmy the same. He said Brian, because when I went to court he was looking at me like man. He look boy, look too tall.
Speaker 2:Mind you, I've been in jail for like a year fighting a homicide on CFCF. Man, innocent as fuck. There's nothing like being in prison when you're innocent. They should not give you the death penalty, bro, that shit like me, if you type in that shit Coming right up on the daily news Like Rapper beats, murder, rat, worst case Mistaken. I didn't even say that I mean. But instead of them Saying like we sorry for doing it to you, they make them feel like you got away with something. So that's why I got three to six years For some weed, like you know, for the weed Like oh yeah, we want him anyway. All cats you mean so. So, in the nutshell, make everybody look at you like all you do is get locked up when it ain't even you. Yeah, I mean, that's what I was labeled as. All you do is get locked up all the time. You mean these niggas. I mean that shit was crazy bro damn man.
Speaker 1:So I want to, I want to like, we can't. I don't even want another word said before we touch on this man. Uh, I don't want to say the wrong thing, but like I, I tell everybody I wish I knew you so much around this time. But, uh, I think it was around like 2019, 2020. Um, you lost a son, that's what I'm saying. Uh, my condolences, man, for real man. Uh, I wish I knew you so bad at that time, man, all the stuff I've been doing my life.
Speaker 2:If you take all of it and add it times a thousand, it won't be equal to that. Yeah, it won't equal to that. It's the worst thing ever. It's the only words that you can explain.
Speaker 1:That's why I made sure I brung that up. And then, on top of that, even though Mooji a little older and you know, with certain feelings that he might have towards you, and you know, like I, I I did my research, all the interviews, so I'm not just a god just talking like I heard his side and it's unfortunate you feel me, we know it's crazy about that situation yeah he was tight on the streets and they never had never told me.
Speaker 2:I have no problem at all be tight. Since he was a kid like. So I thought he was my son because I know him but my main blame him on me. That's why he live on 31st and tasking. His mom made from 31st and tasking so I had to go to another house to meet my son and we end up being cool and start getting money together because I'm thorough like that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean yeah like up there with his mom. His mom ain't there. I mean, but kids, a son gonna love his mom. And I never told my son like yo, I ain't know you nigga, cause there was no need to tell him that you ate my son. Now, come on, we rockin' he go, your brothers that's the crazy part that's the

I mean, you're my son. At the end of the day, I made you bro, you know. So he like it's like he wanted to be in company, but I love him to death.
Speaker 2:But we never had no, no problems at all on the streets, right, but when you meet a kid eight, you can't beat him. Yeah, you can't meet a kid eight years old and beat him. So you can't really chastise him because they don't even. They might just come get him. So sometimes he wouldn't even want to go. He don't know me, he ain't know me at all. I forced myself into his life. You mean that part. You don't got brothers and I think it's didn't be together. You know what I'm saying. So like the stuff that you feel, you know kids, kids see stuff different than the parent do a parent see it clearer because they were grown.
Speaker 2:They was grown you see it, you don't see it. The fact that you got your step pop, because that's still your step, that's my, and that I came over there with your step-up, I'm like I don't know how this nigga gonna be. But whatever it is, I'm trying to make it work. We end up being like brothers. So we come over, we over there, playing bro, you got your dad there, your step-up, and your step-up dad upstairs. There's no need for you about my son is that he did all this nuts stuff, whatever he's doing out here, but he take it, he won't get him doing.
Speaker 1:No crying about it, he ain't telling bro he never.
Speaker 2:I've never called him. I never talked to him. One time he was sad. I saw y'all talk. No, he took. When he first got a job. You know I sent him money for his tv and all that stuff like that. I mean. Then he started getting his bag. I I don't know. But see, when you're a parent you don't forget the kids. You know they dumb because they used them. He never was me before, he never my age before, so he can't even think. I can think how he think, but only difference with me. I ain't have a dad, so I ain't never get a chance to blame it on this person. To blame it on this person, I had to get his shit done. Yeah, you know, what I mean.
Speaker 2:Nobody sending me money. I had to draw pictures in jail to get commissary. You know what I'm saying. Yeah, so he don. When you don't want to rob a store. But you got to rob a store. You don't want to rob the store, like damn, I wish I didn't have to rob the store you got to rob that. You ain't going to eat. Yeah, you know what I mean. Shit like that. He don't know about none of that and I'm glad he don't know that.
Speaker 3:But see if he was smart what he would have done was use me as a you going through what you go through. You went through it so your kids can't or won't have to bro, bro, I remember my dad.
Speaker 2:I did my dad for nine months period, like he might say he died 1990. So yeah, I figured that's 30 something. I mean so come on, not even that I have no dad to talk to it at all, period you give me, only had you had it for nine months, you mean. So that's a whole different type of thing.
Speaker 3:I just want to say that we just broke down the difference between hove and oh, you know what I'm saying. You went and forced yourself in your kid's life and somebody else ran from their kid. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:My son was out of jail right now. He might be bad with it for a while, but eventually you're going to come back to your dad because the person always never going to judge, the person always got to forgive you. People on the streets can just cut you off. I can't cut you off because I'm your dad, so I got to. I mean, in Madu, I'm just like nigga. I feel the same way. I feel like man, fuck you too. I can say the same thing. You mean so like because I don't need you for shit. That's the natural human. Yeah, but I don't need you for sure you need. If anything, you would need me. I'm saying I would never say fuck you because I already know you gonna grow up one day and you gonna be different.
Speaker 3:So important. There were a lot of fathers going through that, like what you speaking man so like in our community. It's like something going on. Where's though, like I don't want, I don't want to say listen, let me say like this I don't claim to be no perfect father at all I don't know how to dad my son.
Speaker 2:How the fuck I'm gonna know how to be a father.
Speaker 3:There's a disconnect right now it's not.
Speaker 2:It's not. It's not the kids. These days, I think they're more spoiled than we was when I was growing up. My, when I was growing up, you got a dad at all. Even if you enjoy it, you're hyped to have a dad period. Yeah, that's a bust, but nowadays they feel like prima donnas. Imagine if they write for themselves like that. Maybe that's what they owe. But I didn't have it. We don't really know how exactly to be and I didn't know that kids, they want to do that. You know what I mean. So that's the part I feel guilty about, because I'm thinking like Nigga, I'm about you ain't got to be hungry, you ain't got fly sneakers, you ain't got to run. None of that shit. I'm taking care of you. That's not taking care, but I didn't know that At the time. I mean, that's all I got to do. I'm selling drugs.
Speaker 1:You know what I?
Speaker 2:mean so that shit.
Speaker 1:I listen, man. Oh man, I try to Get to the meat and potatoes as much as I could In a short segment. If y'all want a part two, no, they getting a part two. If y'all need a part two, comment, just put two, just put the number two, that's it. Well, y'all can say what y'all want. But, this the one thing, cause it's kinda like breaking news. Feel me I need you to touch on this, bro.
Speaker 4:All right, before you do that, though, I'm sorry to cut you off.
Speaker 3:It's a lot of crisscross.
Speaker 4:I just want to know, because, throughout the music and throughout the Internet, and you learning the Internet, you being on the internet, you keep your authenticity. You've been able to keep your authenticity the whole way through Like no, no, not me Like, tell me, like how important it is for you to keep your authenticity in everything that you do.
Speaker 2:Well, the only way you can do that right is if you get your own money. If you work for somebody else, you can't beat your true self because they might fire you. Yeah See, I always find a way to get money where I ain't got to be, because my thing is this when you come from the slums, you don't have to get millions. If you get some thousands to get by, they'll hold you over until you get back to your bag. You can do that. You don't got to be dick eating and waiting for somebody. Shit that I was not doing. I can't do it. I'm not fucking around, faking it and all that shit to make you happy and you a sucker. How dare I make you feel happy? And you a sucker? You the one that's a sucker. What I do is I love my niggas. If I fuck with you, I fuck with you 100%, or I don't fuck with you at all. I don't really do all that in between. That's why I'm cool with people, because you'll be loving somebody.
Speaker 4:they hate you the whole time you know, I just noticed that, like you've been the whole the same, the whole way through and changed through over the years and like that.
Speaker 2:So you know I hate the most somebody. Somebody say something, you write about somebody. Do you see them? Around, around them and like like what the bro like did y'all fix it or something, y'all fix that, what the that's just crazy that'd be, so weird to me, bro.
Speaker 1:Nah, real, nah, real rad. So, like you know what I mean, like we're going to have to do a For sure OV2, you feel me? That's what you're going to call it OV2. Ski no, vag Squares 2.
Speaker 2:I want to say something to it, like I'm proud of y'all Because y' Like for real, because like it's easy as men, it's easy to like, not see your feelings, not see how you really feel. It took me to be like 40 to learn how to do that shit. Bro, to be honest with you, you know what I mean. But seeing young people doing that shit I'd be like damn, that's supposed to be more of. Y'all advanced, more advanced than my generation is A lot of times people that say I do music't. What's the boy's name with the white white? Uh, d-sturdy or something.
Speaker 4:Too.
Speaker 6:Rare Too Rare.
Speaker 2:I was talking to someone on the internet last night. I mean I said yo bro, you poppin' bro, I'm proud of you.
Speaker 4:You poppin' hard it is to come out of philly, let's say I'm a sucker for bro.
Speaker 2:You ever watch this shit called uh secret boss. Like the secret boss he'd be, like he worked there well every time I'm watching about the crowd, bro, like I'm like yo, I'm so hyper happy because I'd be like to see people do good bro. Like when I see somebody doing good bro, she'd make me feel like some type of way.
Speaker 1:Basically, it'd be like a boss or go to the establishment and act like the employee more time than the owner of the company. And whoever like Really doing good.
Speaker 2:And all that boss Will be like.
Speaker 1:I'm giving you a hundred thousand Like, yeah, like that type of shit.
Speaker 2:Yeah. So like that shit, like that, make me feel like Yo bro, I'm like I can't watch this. You know what?
Speaker 1:I mean.
Speaker 2:Like I want some shit like that Right, because A lot of people, a lot of people when somebody hating on you, right, and they don't even feel it.
Speaker 3:That's what I'm saying bro, even I was a dirty little kid, bro, I never.
Speaker 2:If I see somebody get money, I'm like I want to be like them. Yeah, I want to ask them how you get that. Yeah, I've never had me, but but I understand you gotta be thankful that god didn't give it to you. Right people, that people that be hating they don I want to be well who want to be gay. You gotta go through all this ridicule and all this stuff. It's something that your god just ain't give it to you. You know what I'm saying. So, like I told myself before, you make fun of somebody, but remember that god didn't give it to you. Be lucky that you didn't give it to you that's why I look in the mirror.
Speaker 1:I could be down to my last hundred, but I'd be happy that I'm not done when you're happy, when you have be rich exactly which has Exactly, I found that out. Rich as a spirit.
Speaker 2:Rest in peace, Rich yeah yeah, yeah, I mean so, like. But just imagine where everybody could talk to each other and be their true self and not hiding and trying to worry about ulterior motives and all that. It'll be a smooth ass. You ever had somebody, a friend? They do some shit to you, like why you do that?
Speaker 2:Yeah land the to you look like it's just like you, you so you don't know who, and then mess you up for messing with somebody else. I mean, whereas though it could have been a good relationship with the next person so, so.
Speaker 1:So this one thing I want, because we gotta you, you're over here too, man, but we gotta do it. I don't want to ask you because it's breaking news for real make sure y'all share, like subscribe comment if you don't.

What the fuck you? So, instead of paying me, he must have got it. I don't know, but he's running around doing all this and all this shit. I just think the principle that you're trying to play me when I'm supposed to be. If one of you catfish me, I'm looking at you as a big homie. You've been with the red carpet Will Smith joining the governor and everything. So when I see him do that, I'm like damn bro. But even if you fucked up, but the fact the way he went about what he did, he pretty much blamed it on your man, he didn't pay me.
Speaker 2:He said Freeway did it. He blamed it on Freeway and then he told my man, ds, like yo, I offer old money, he ain't take it.

Speaker 2:She wasn't even born, yet Foxy Brown was holding it down for the bitches Heavy With the firm Bro, with Nas and AZ.
Speaker 1:Nicki was born, yet when they was ripping her off.

Speaker 2:Like Nikki is my bitch, my mom's got two desks Listen there's no girls to go against her, but Cardi B, that's what I'm saying, no matter what she came out. No, cardi, she way better what you talking about right now? What you talking about? No, ken, nobody. I'm sorry, subjective, I mean, I don't know by better dinner.

Speaker 1:It's a difference. I'm talking about verse Pin on page they saying that she right, nicki, don't get into that, bro Cardi B admitted it.
Speaker 2:But what I'm saying, my thing is this I fucking with Minaj. But that song, that one verse, what's that verse? I fucking like. What's that song. I like that she did Remember that verse that she did.
Speaker 3:I kept talking about Monsters, Monsters. That's the craziest, that's right there. Right there was. I was like she got it.
Speaker 2:I like the way Foxy Brown used to say her shit. The way she used to be saying it, it was unorthodox for a girl to be rapping like that. Then she was going against Lil' Kim. They was like did they have that shit? That shit was great, bro. I don't even listen to girls rap shit. So, lola, this whole area is different.
Speaker 3:You know the girl I'm talking about.
Speaker 2:Shout out to her, though. Girls took over right now they definitely got the game on smash.
Speaker 1:Yo, you want me to another thing Before we get out of here. When you was all over Flamers too, bro, you was like my favorite rapper For like two years. I just had to add that you was on them features. Like you was trying to like Pro, trying to make this shit 99 again, bro. I'm trying to tell you, bro, that shit was bad bro, that's what messed me up when I came out of prison.
Speaker 2:I'm thinking, because me and me got 20 songs together, right, I'm thinking, bro, you're going to put me. I mean, you got songs that was on the radio all day, every day, probably mean. But but at the time flamers 2 came out, that was the hottest cd I heard in like far as people playing it. You know since, like probably that's the old part two and beanstone beans, uh, mixtape going, but that's the thing, probably the three top joints as far as see. People don't probably remember my second journal because it was so long ago. That was crazy. It made me put out all the rest of them. That shit made me so much money. But flamers 2 when I seen flamers 2, that's the first time I felt like damn shit everywhere. I'm on every fucking car, bro, that's like even had a record deal already. You know what I'm saying. So, like that. So like a lot of times people say, like you know, I put help me, that shit helped me too. That should help me, because I'm not gonna, because I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 1:When I was saying a d night, that's when I knew your name was oskino yeah, because that's what I said.
Speaker 3:This helped me out it was a mixture, it was a little confusion you had to figure it out, do you think?
Speaker 1:it made me know younger people too that would probably wouldn't know you think that it was a album or a mixtape in the city, yet since flamer's too big, is that?
Speaker 2:no, not to me because he had one song that I play every day, living at the speed of life.
Speaker 1:I'm so fly living at the speed alive.
