SPEAKER_03 0:40

Yo, let's rap about it. Brought to you by Playmaker presented by Prize Picks, America's number one sports pick app. What's good, my dog? What's happening? What's the day? What's the vibe? We back for another episode. America's most hated. That's pretty good. Like the matches, man. Like the game. America's most hated. I just been, you know, I just doing what I do. You've done a couple interviews. I mean, you know, here and there. Here and there?

SPEAKER_04 1:13

You want to talk about it?

SPEAKER_03 1:14

Not really. I think we already talked about it. So I think um anything other than that is just redundant. You seem like you was kind of hot on them interviews. I was triggered. Yeah, yeah. It happens sometimes. I said, damn, I was triggered. I said, damn, my boy is hot. Yeah, it happens. You know what I mean? But look, listen. We live and we learned, alright? So we go back, we watch the foot the uh the footage and and the playback of the of the play, and then we say, uh, damn, you got me right there. And then we learn from it, and then we do and then we do better next time. So it is what it is. You got me right there. You got me right there. Yeah. Yeah. How you feeling though? I feel absolutely wonderful. You know, um, I'm quitting the show. Today's my last day. Is it last day? Today's the last day. Air Max Day. Air Max Day. Oh, tomorrow's Air Max Day. I didn't get the member. Jim wasn't Jim wasn't in the Air Max chat. Yeah. Jim wasn't in the Air Max chat. Yeah, but I didn't I didn't send y'all a chat because I'm resigning because I can't fucking talk. Right, you can't talk, man. I'm afraid. You're afraid to talk. I'm afraid of you, Mr. David. You are unrelenting. I told that man get his back done. You turned into something else. Just leave it alone, bro. That back is going viral. Don't resign. Get your back done. It's all right. Don't resign, dog.

SPEAKER_04 2:41

We got love for you here. We just here to resume. It's love. It's love. It's love up here. You know what I mean? Like, we just here for you.

SPEAKER_03 2:47

Oh, so you're governing the situation. I'm helping you out for when you in when you're in other rooms and you're talking crazy. Now you might think twice about what you say. That's all I'm here to do, man. That's what that is. When you're not arrested. For my own good. What are friends for? 100%. 100% for your own good. That's what friends are for, man. Alright, then hold you accountable. I'm staying and make niggas more mad. That's all it is. Yeah. All it is. What we got on the list today? Um Women's Month. It's like we highlighting this is all woman shots. Women's Month. Women's History Month. That's gonna stab you. Beyonce. None of this can never happen without y'all. Right is the first black woman to make it to a billion dollars off of just music in touring. Salute this. That girl good. That girl. That's fire. 100%. That's fire fire. Yeah. I think it says a lot too about uh the way Beyonce does her business too. Because you there's a lot of people who could be talented, and if they're not in the right structures or, you know, really about their business, they won't capitalize off of their talent. So I think Beyonce, you know, from them knowing Beyonce was a you know a star from a pretty young artist, I think that everything around her business-wise has been been pushed to that point for her to hit a billion. But but to do it just music and not with clothing, you know, uh sponsorships, you know, um, you know, and doing other things with your brand is is a is a lot because you know, music is in a funny space nowadays. It's like you either making, you know, a little bit of money. Not for Beyoncé, though. I'd say music space is probably really good. So she's in a 2% of people that actually make a lot of money off of music. God damn. I'm sure touring-wise, Beyonce makes uh a nice bad.

SPEAKER_04 4:48

Definitely half the half the half of country and then we're number one in country, bro. She her her range is different. Definitely.

SPEAKER_03 4:55

Yeah. We live in a time it's so many artists. It's so many artists. Every artist is not making a lot of money.

SPEAKER_04 5:04

Not at all.

SPEAKER_03 5:05

I think it kind of always been designed that way. Like if you look at, you know, the way the contracts are designed, the way that the industry is designed, I don't think it was ever designed for the artist to actually be wealthy. You think about when you artists from back in the days like Ray and you watch the movie Ray Charles and all that, like see what he was going through, he was like still struggling. Like he had hits. But then even in a more modern time, and we we heard like about like TLC, and we was like, damn, y'all was the number one selling female artist of all the time. Right, and then y'all, then they were saying that they was broke. So it was like, I don't think the industry was ever set up for the artist to be wealthy. Ever. That's another reason why I salute the Beyoncé, because that's why I said her business. Somebody was in her best interest in the business. Like when we a lot of us come in as artists, we don't know the business. We don't know the music business. We have a talent, we have uh uh some people who get us involved in the game, but we not we don't know the music business. And I think that's how the wrong deals are signed, or you you you getting less of a profit of your talent than the company. And I think one thing that I have to salute when you see even everybody from my company, like we gotta take it's we all on each other's uh uh next steps in a sense. Like we we were making more than the artists that was uh uh uh before us, and now the artists that are coming after us are making more. You know what I'm saying? So it's still when you see you just gotta look at the business of it, and that's what I think, you know, Beyonce is an amazing talent, but I think like her business has always looked like it's intact too. So so it's it's fair to say that you can have amazing talent, but not be in the right situation. Yeah. Is that fair to say?

SPEAKER_04 7:01

Yeah, that's a lot of it's a it's a lot of. I could agree with that. Some artists are artists and and don't really want to go through the hassle with a business. Some artists understand the business is more important than the actual uh talent uh once you start to get signed.

SPEAKER_03 7:17

So it's uh it's a lot of no, but the thing is this though, Capo, they can be signed to a regular label. But it's just this the situation is just not that advantageous.

SPEAKER_04 7:30

I mean, even if a person has his da business and everything in order, your lifespan in this uh music industry is not promised. You need to be financially smart and not just worry about music once you do, get a little opportunity to make some money and shit like that.

SPEAKER_03 7:44

But is the music the gateway to the riches? A hundred percent.

SPEAKER_04 7:47

That's why they say you use all the ancillary things that comes with you being the cool person in the music. So all the business that comes with it is the business that actually makes you rich.

SPEAKER_03 7:57

There's so much you could do off the music, I feel now. Like everything. Once you got a bass or you got a you know what I mean? Like what? A following. Depending on what following you're looking for. You talking about okay, but right, but we talk okay, but here's the thing. We're talking about strictly just music, not not letting music be the gateway to other things, and you you you you you get a deal over here. I do believe it. I think you gotta have know your business. You gotta own your masters, you gotta own your publishing, you gotta own different things that the music is gonna work with. If you own all that, if you be a devil's advocate, the masters have to sell something. The masters have to be worth something. Niggas be like, you gotta sell some records some. I mean, anything masters is worth something. You put out work, you put out records and what you put out and it's it's streaming if you don't own it versus you do own it is a completely different number. But if you own it, you getting what's coming back to you from there. If somebody else owns it, then you're getting a whatever portion of what they get money to based off the performance of the record, because the the the the the better that the record performs And a lot of times your masses, your mas your masses, I'm not saying they're not worth nothing right now, but if you own your masters, it's not like you get an extra bonus until you actually become a big bigger one.

SPEAKER_04 9:16

Right.

SPEAKER_03 9:16

So they become until the performance of it, and then it becomes a hit or smash or whatever, right, and then it's worth more than it was. And because I think That's why we have so many independent artists now. Because you don't need the same structure of record labels, but also because they seen in a seen ownership is really just you owning your music and be able to do it. It could be streaming, it could be licensing, it could be anything that that comes about with your music, but when you own it, you're making a lot more money than when you sign to a label. Somebody else owns.

SPEAKER_04 9:48

You have a lot more you have a lot more leverage to do of a business if you own your music, as opposed to the the late.

SPEAKER_03 9:56

But how do you get that leverage? If you're an artist, you've just gotten a game, right? You have to put out the microphone. They're giving some artists those deals now. So so right. I think you gotta get your own motion up. You gotta get your own that's what I'm saying. Then they come to you, they got you got a little more leverage to do business. You gotta invest in yourself. Yeah, you gotta have a a little. You gotta have a plan. You can't go in there looking like you just you just need it. They know you need it. Guess what? They're gonna give you less than you need because they they and we have took that. We've gone went in there and took what we what we needed just so we could get to the next level of it. But I think now it's it's changing, and that's why I think music is still gonna be a place of, you know, when it was drifting out of the physical sales of everything, everybody was worrying about. Now, streaming numbers, them them them kids is getting millions off of streams, bro. Right. This isn't for absence, right? Like that's the ownership does give you leverage to make more money. But when you when you walk in there with value, because if you go into a label and you hot and you own all your records, that's the key. Now they want to come to the table walking in there hot. But at that point, your negotiation has to be sharp because the label wants your masters. No matter how slim of a percentage they take, they could get take 2% and give you 98%. But in that contract, you're gonna say they own your masters for at least five to ten years, no matter distribution label, whatever. And you gotta be super, super, super hot, or very established artists to be like, nah, y'all can't get that. Right. You know, right. Or you do it, you license it to them for a certain amount of time, like you said, five years, but that's what it is. It's gonna come back. It's gonna come back. But that's even but that is even you relinquish your ownership at that point, right? But that is even better than not getting it back at all. But that leverage also comes with how how hot you are. There you go. You know what I'm saying? How much value, man? If you gotta name or not. I didn't even know about none of that as I was still figuring out all this master shit. So I'm in the percentile of a of a nick uh of the stupid people. I'm telling you now, there's this young dudes going and getting distribution deals and owning their masters. No, I didn't say I didn't I didn't say they're not. No, that's a fact. I just said that, but you have to you have to be lit to be able to go inside of these offices and be like, I'm owning my masters for your and your week is still. I agree. You you you have to have let me tell you, let me tell you why that's changing also, too. This is really kind of like giving some game away a little bit, but why the labels now, say like how Netflix is. Netflix needs content, it needs movies over and over and over again. Right. Labels are now starting to need projects the same way. They they don't have projects coming out like that. There's people, it's not as many people even signing the labels the way they, you know what I mean? Like we we seeing people just come out and doing their own thing, and then the labels is going to them after they already done blew up on YouTube or TikTok or what's the name. Now they really going in there and saying, I'm keeping my master's. And the labels is giving it because they need even that hot person or the person from TikTok or the person from YouTube, they need the content. They're coming in with it. Basically, like Netflix needs the content, they're not. They're coming in with value though, Spirit. They're coming in a little hot. The thing is, the thing with the with the labels, especially with the in the everybody ain't getting that though. Distribution, they allow you to do that because it's not see the difference. See, you wasn't getting your masters and all that because they was giving you a loan and they was paying for everything. But if you're not getting all that money up front, you needed them to put out music there. There you go. So now you're distributing your stuff. So now you you retaining ownership. The most we want to do is like times, bro. Like, I mean, everything is a license at the end of the day. No, some is ownership. What are you talking about? Some some the the the the antiquated deals, the deals when you sign to uh uh uh a major labels, those deals with owning owns your master. That's a major label, right? Own your master. Distribution is way different. Right, distribution. Now you're able to say, all right, I want to do a licensing deal with you. I'm gonna get my I'm gonna let y'all have that and eat off that for five years and I get my shit back. That's the most that I say niggas should be doing because we're not in the era where they where everybody's getting. If you give them the million dollars, if you need them to give you a five-year deal, you are you you in good shape because they're not even trying to give you that from the distribution standpoint. But what Spears is saying is dope because it makes sense. Everything is about content, and these labels do need to load up like the YouTube Spotify's is a whole different thing for the labels because they don't have nothing else. They gotta change their whole business model when it comes to them making money in the entertainment business. Yeah, independent artists don't even need them to go to the DSPs. Nope. They can go directly to that's what I'm saying, so that's why they gotta get like they lost a little bit of leverage in a sense. They gotta get something just for you to even be fucking with call, video, any one of these distribution arms, and go direct, right? Right. The only thing about the label was that they were spending money to make you a star. That was the difference. Now all before. Before they were spending money on marketing you, they were spending money on on getting you to look like something and it make you this huge star. Are they actually doing that? They're not doing that for everybody. And the system has changed, the marketing has changed. Yeah. So they don't have the same. Before you needed the label to hear yourself on the radio, or you needed just, you know what I mean? The whole system has changed. They spent money doing it. Now radio ain't bigger than the internet. It just came back this week. Radio gets played more than it does. It does. But that's the same songs playing over and over. What what do you see more with the thing is definitely within the talk? You're gonna see more than what you hear on the radio. The radio playing the same 10 songs. Right, so it just came back that the that radio is still for 25 and I think 44 year olds. I could be wrong. I'm gonna look back, I'm gonna look it up. Still number one for them.

SPEAKER_04 16:09

For listening to music.

SPEAKER_03 16:10

Yeah, it's like and that just came back this week. I was uh looking at something this week. It's been like that too for a minute. It's been like that for a minute. That's crazy because it's still not bigger than me because even your radio station is just that area. And somebody radio station in Alabama, they listen into one, they not all the internet streaming let somebody in London listen to the same shit somebody in Compton is listening to. That's for all radio in general. Right. But um I think people discover music. Discover. The discovery And engaged. I feel like they engage more. So before the discovery of music was either you was listening to the radio, you went out to the club, or somebody told you about something. Now you don't you discover music now on your device. Like you could be on social media.

SPEAKER_04 17:02

You can't forget that the amount of people that get up and go to work in cars and places that play radio and just regular radio, like that's a big early morning. So radio is still very important to music, period. I mean, you might have a better variety when you go into social media and shit like that.

SPEAKER_03 17:20

I wanna I want to show y'all something. Hold on. It's if you had to push a record right now, where would you push it through more? Radio or through the internet? See, for us it's different. We like hybrids, so I'm trying to push both both angles. And for me, if it's like if I catch a record or on a mix show, like if I see a record catching a buzz or a mix show, then that gives me an inclination. Like, I need to put some money down on this to see if I might go to the next level. And if it get catch up, then I start treating it like a label would and trying to go for ads and shit like that. But the amount of money you have to spend on uh social, I mean the internet and shit like that is penis to what you have to spend at real radio and shit like that. So with that said, if you had a hundred thousand and you could put the hundred thousand either in radio or put the hundred thousand in the internet, which one would you do? I'll put it in the internet. Well, if I could break it up, if I could break it up, I would I would take 40 for the radio and take 60 for the internet. But even there, right? So radio really gonna get you hot in what the tri-state area? You can put the hundred in the you could do a national. Not with no pen. You can't do no national campaign with a hundred. You can go for ads or urban radio for 50 grand. This is a fact. That's just urban radio. That's urban. You might you're not gonna be able to get uh rhythmic with that. That's like 120,000 for all of that. So that still ain't even no guarantee it's gonna go. No, it's not because you gotta get into all of these.

SPEAKER_04 18:49

No guarantee on either side, but it's getting played in the music meetings. You gotta see, you gotta wait to the end of the day to see how many stations they can do. No, but the next one.

Yo, is an artist performance fee about your legacy or what the current market is, and should there be a number you never perform under? Man, I'm gonna feel about that. Uh over pride. That's how I feel about it. I'm a hustler. I be got my I got my ups, I got my downs. Shit, some, some, some, some, some moments, some seasons I'm gonna get with what I feel I deserve. Other seasons ain't gonna be like, I ain't gotta, we got this. Then it's up to me to be like, nigga, you gonna sit here and not make a dollar or you gonna make some money, nigga? I'm gonna make some money. You know what? I respect that, and I feel like I've been there a lot of times. Um everybody everybody's career traject uh trajectory is different. Everybody's not a Kanye or Hove or whatever, right? So, you know, for the niggas that gotta like figure it out, I I relate to that. I I've been there where it was like, what nigga you want? What? Right. I didn't. It's up to me now to say if I'm gonna take it or not. This is Fizz, don't say don't, I cause I already know he gonna start shooting like Fizz like that. I never but nigga, I listen. For me, I calculate my shit different, nigga. I remember there was times where I would say four or five hostings, four, five, four or five thousand dollars, so I can make twenty thousand that weekend, nigga. I'm still gonna get me to some money that means something. You know what I mean? Was it lower than what I what I feel I should've got? Yeah, but am I gonna be out here broke and I got bills to pay and I like and I like to live? Yeah, so I'm gonna go through a game. I think I think if you're in the game long enough, if you're not in the top five percent, that's that may be something that you come in and you encounter those days. Yeah, but there are some people that refuse to do it. Like I'm I'm not but I'm not just not my style. I'm I mean but it depends on the situation. If they so let me ask you this would you would you have a situation? Would you rather get 10 shows a year at the price that you wanted? Or 60 shows a year. Right.

SPEAKER_04 22:47

And maybe a little bit lower.

SPEAKER_03 22:48

That's right. That's that's a real point. Which one you I mean, I'm I'm inclined to at this point to probably say the 60. What about you, Spence? I think it depends what um level of your career you at and how how much you need. Um how much you need the shows. Sometimes you might need 60 shows to spread more in that time. If you don't need to spread, you might just say, yo, I'm gonna take the 10 shows at my number and be cool with it. I think anybody, I like you just said, I think it's all different tiers of um the numbers and even the numbers that's that's that they paying too. Cause sometimes it's the the market is is is is slower, so you know the the numbers is down. But I think through it all, you just you gotta stay hungry but never thirsty in a sense. Like you gotta like, you know, you gotta get to the money, but you don't don't get desperate or do anything out of your your value or your worth for, you know what I'm saying? Because I mean uh one thing that why I feel like that too is once you go down, it's hard to go back up. So it's like you gotta you gotta stand your ground on your numbers sometime and just just when it's right is right. And that's it. I think I think I think both both answers is right because sometimes you just need the fucking money. Straight up. But then you don't want that promoter saying, oh, I just Frankie, I need that money. Frankie, I need that money, nigga. I got such and such for this, and then that's the that's the I understand that. You know what I mean? Now who you got?

SPEAKER_02 24:27

You might have got a dub from the last time. You might have got a dub, and now you don't need to be.

SPEAKER_03 24:30

Now they like, yo, I heard such and such gave you 7,500. Yeah. And it happens like that. That that's why you gotta stay down, make sure you do music, some more hot music, make sure you always get your motion back up so it goes, it goes up and down like the stock walker. You heard? Like, you ain't gotta stay down. I think two things is correct. That both philosophies, because it also depends on where you at in your life.

SPEAKER_02 24:52

Let's be real. Where you at in your life? Are you situated?

SPEAKER_03 24:56

Are you straight with all your bills and your overhead is cool, and you ain't gotta worry about taking something that I ain't going past 50, nigga. I want 50. I ain't going past that. Right. I called a nigga recently. I said, yo, these people got a hundred for you. He said, that's too low. I said, damn. Nigga getting my name. But he in a different space in his life. Where he can afford to say no to a buck.

SPEAKER_04 25:26

And there's some people that say no to millions.

SPEAKER_03 25:29

This is what I'm saying. Because they it all depends on where you at in your life. Levels. Right. So whatever level you at, man, stay hungry kids. I don't even think it's a level for me, though.

SPEAKER_04 25:42

I don't know what level I'm at, but I do believe if you call me for a buck, I'm just a just a project nigga. Like, wait, they got they got that in cash? Shit, let me see. I'm gonna come scoop that up on the way to get some more money. Like, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not leaving nothing on the table. You know what I mean? Like, not to say I I like like Spizz says, is don't be thirsty, but I'm not, I'm I'm I'm more hungry than those.

SPEAKER_03 26:04

Right, right, right. Sometimes the table is yours and you take it, you take it what's on the table, so you gotta just really like see what the whole shit is. Like this shit is tricky, man. That's why I like you can't. There's no right answer for that. It's every person has every person has a different way to attack that.

SPEAKER_04 26:22

And then it might work both ways. Like, you might have gone for the 60 and they got your shit up, and you're like, Alright, you know what? I'm a cool land.

SPEAKER_03 26:29

I'm not even doing none of that shit no more. I'm gonna build my shit back up. Nah, I don't want that number. It depends sometimes, sometimes it's in your best interest to say no. Sometimes, right? I ain't doing that. Nigga, I come over there and kick y'all niggas' speakers in.

SPEAKER_04 26:41

All money ain't good money, but all money is money.

SPEAKER_03 26:44

Right. So, like I said, depending on where you at the end of the day. When you at with your life, you know what I'm saying. You might be straight, you might not be straight. Because we know niggas got bills, and niggas, them bills is not stopping. Right. At all. You know what I'm saying? And just being real and transparent, so it all depends on on where you are, I think, in your artistry, you know what I mean, and and and what you can stand to take or not take. You know, I just told you that and that and when I told you that story, I call the nigga and say, yo, these people over here got a buck. That was that was three weeks ago.

SPEAKER_04 27:20

You know who go, you know who I respect is hustle in the game? Uh Rick Ross. He don't leave nothing on the table. I say that with moderation. Like I seen him take be in the same spots that I've done in the same night, and then be like, yo, I'm about to go get another one right now. You know I'm not leaving nothing on the table. Like, and I know, like, if he was in the same same spot I was at, then nine times out of ten, you didn't get the money that you would normally get at the functions you go to, but you still scooping up that bag and then going to like I respect that type of shit. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_03 27:50

Whatsa told me that a long time ago. I don't leave no money on the table unless it's just outlandish. Well, that which I understand. You know what I mean? But I understand both angles of it because it's like you don't want to get to a space where niggas is playing in your face. Right. Like, yo, I got two grand for you. I'm gonna fire this nigga down. Like, this nigga's crazy. You like what what? I just said, like, if niggas came to you talking crazy, like your number, like you know where your life is at. It's outlandish, like I just told you, a nigga, I called a nigga, he said a hundred was too was too low. So that was outlandish for him. Whereas for me, that would have been a lit. But ain't no, I never got a hundred nothing for no show. So let's let's be honest. You know, you know what I'm saying? So it is what it is. That's his never always. I like that. My philosophy is that I might not get a hundred for a show, but I can show you how to make a hundred in a night. There you go. There you go. We're gonna hustle it. That's hustling. At the end of the day. So I think, yeah, it's it's it's no real wrong answer to that. But if you can get a hundred in a night, you gonna take a hundred for a show, you can take one. Instead of doing five, take one. Hell yeah. You kidding me? That's how it goes. And that call I made, that was to T.I. Look, they got a buck for you.

SPEAKER_04 29:19

At what point does an artist have to take full accountability for their career, regardless of their team? Like what? I guess Pooh Shyste went on social media and said Nike's new uh Pooh Shiisty mass, he should have been the face of it, and he he missed out on the opportunity to be the in the full campaign and all that. Like, so how you feel about if you've seen Pooh Shyste in a full Nike campaign and snipes all around the world and in the train station and in the gyms and all that shit.

SPEAKER_03 29:51

How does that work? That would have been fire, but what I think ain't what Nike think.

SPEAKER_02 29:56

Well, that's how I feel. That would have been hard. Is it his team's fault for not pursuing Nike?

SPEAKER_03 30:05

Yeah. I would say it's his team fault for not double down on opportunity. I don't think it was a Nike thing. I think that's a good thing. But he said he's specifically talking about Nike. Okay, I'm no, but now what I'm saying is when he's talking about the team, now what I'm saying is I think they dropped the ball or missing an opportunity for them making a shitload of money since the moment he got locked up. Once they seen these kids calling these actual mask pool shisties, they I've never heard it be called nothing else. They could have made their own mask. They could have made like merchants on this. At that point in time, they should have put it. But the Nike conversation is where it's getting a little. Like, why would they expect Nike? Conversation is crazy, but we're talking about the team. So I'm saying where the team dropped the ball is that they should have had his face on a ski mask, like a do-rag cover and shit like that. He made a right, but on the on the rapping, but they could have had just shysti in the back.

SPEAKER_04 30:53

So whatever, like it ain't even had to be crazy.

SPEAKER_03 30:56

Let's a little shit.

SPEAKER_04 30:58

You got his face on the package like a do-rag.

SPEAKER_03 31:00

But then you get the official shysties, like niggas have been running around tomorrow. That's that ain't that ain't a fish. That ain't shisty. That ain't a shisty. You got the record. He would have kept Nike, Nick. The kids would have the kids would have got the shisty more than they would have got the Nike if he would have capitalized on that opportunity. Yeah, because it would have been the package. Any of the top people at Nike tapped in with Pooh Shysy? Never. Nah. Pooh Shystey music. If you know Pooh Shyste music, they ain't type of music. Do you think they do you think that they know and just do that? Do you think that they know that because they they they know what they know what we call they know what we call everything? You don't think they know that the streets call them masks? 100%. I think 100%. I think you know that.

SPEAKER_04 31:42

Why do you think they make the new mask? I think they know the money of the mask, so they make a super improved mask.

SPEAKER_02 31:47

I don't think it's I don't I don't think they would reach out or no shit like that.

SPEAKER_03 31:52

But they're showing you what they do, bro. They make you and the biggest. Yo, y'all know this mask has been around for a while. Way before way before this Pooh Shysti.

SPEAKER_04 32:00

Pooh Shaisy could have made a lot of money, man. Make it out with insulated mass.

SPEAKER_03 32:04

I think Shisey should have should have really made like that his merchant. A hundred own shit. Yeah. You know, rent his own shit rather than thinking anybody thinking it's a Nike play.

SPEAKER_04 32:13

Waterproof joint swoops. He could have ran with that. Level he should make the coalition. Yeah, insulated. Mikey could do anything again and fool you. Like, man, we got insulated socks. Niggas gonna get them.

Yeah, one. He gotta at least get past his average. That's not what he does anyway. I think JB just, you know, he's there to be the main guy. He facilitates any squares.

SPEAKER_04 34:07

Josh Hart of the City. How y'all feeling about that man?

SPEAKER_03 34:11

Heart of the City. More threes or what? What's up? More rebounds? Uh more assists. With Hart, I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go um less with the threes, more rebounds. Matter of fact, I reverse that. But Charlotte, I'll probably I'm gonna go more with threes. I was gonna say, I'm gonna go more with the threes. I'm gonna go more with threes. More with threes and more with rebounds. I'm gonna go less with the threes. I'm gonna go more rebounds and more assists with Josh, but I'm gonna go less with the threes. What about Kat? More assists with Kat, definitely.

I don't talk like that.

SPEAKER_04 35:28

Young listen.

SPEAKER_03 35:29

I let these niggas be who the fuck they want to be. They gotta be, bro. You gotta let niggas live. Where's this stemming from? They say uh, what's the girl's name? Uh Ari, she got into the Little Chicago um uh drill artist, I believe. Um she was out she was here at the sp at the sp uh at the uh IFC before, I believe. So they got in a fight, and I believe they say uh Ari lined them up, she dropped the low, some dumb shit like that, and then I guess them and Ari was going back and forth. So I guess they're trying to say that uh Ari is the OG. Um pissed off at the young girls. And um as an OG, I I mean I I welcome the young generation. I love to see my I love to see my young people. I think it's a misconception that there's this separation and division between younger artists and older ones. Like you get like niggas gotta understand. Everybody that has gotten a little older was young. So there's no misunderstanding in that, right? And I don't, I personally never because one thing I think you can be the worst thing in the world, one of the worst things is to be a a disgruntled a disgruntled old. Old ass nigga. You don't know there's a lot of them out there. That's why the separation is it feels like there's a separation is not cool. For these is not cool. What are they wearing? Because they they have a different out like a little bit. I don't like they I don't like they jeans.

SPEAKER_03 37:14

The feet get worse like it's in bad denim. No, but one thing about the disgruntled old nigga is that he got on like a jacket that could be cool on a regular nigga, but he's got it on, like it's like a pele. And then he got the mix it and then he got the jean. He got the G with the Pele. Oh my god, the niggas got the disgruntled OG starter kit. Like they tie their shoes up real tight. They very tight. They very tight, Mr. David. They tie the Timberlands all the way to the top loop. Niggas like that. You can usually spot these niggas tie shits up. Cause part of that conversation is, man, it used to be like this back in the days.

I like that capital to get extra point for that. Oh, these niggas is different though.

SPEAKER_03 38:20

SPEAKER_04 38:26

SPEAKER_03 48:02

Just don't talk crazy. Yeah, like I don't know what crazy is. Your version of free speech is a very good thing.

SPEAKER_04 48:07

It doesn't say freedom to talk crazy. It says freedom of speech. It's two different things. I hear you, bro. Now you you you you was outside in the 90s or you was locked up in the 90s?

SPEAKER_03 48:18

I was somewhere, bro. Wherever I was at, I was alive. What's your point?

SPEAKER_04 48:24

The next question depends on if you was outside to witness the 90s.

SPEAKER_03 48:27

I was in both. What does 90s fine really mean? Door knockers, 54 11s, 570.

SPEAKER_04 48:34

So would you take a 90s girl instead of a 2026 girl right now? What does that mean?

SPEAKER_03 48:39

I think 90s fine is is more like the natural look. Yeah, natural. I don't think it's just a 90s aesthetic. I think 90s women, you always remember they had like a more natural look. So what's the problem? What's the what's the question? Which one you rather? Right now, what look would you rather? Are they gonna be able to get something in the lips? No, no, no, no. Is it 90s? He's saying 90s fine versus the IG model what's going on today.

SPEAKER_04 49:08

Would you would you would you uh IG baddies?

SPEAKER_03 49:11

Would you rather left eye? I'm asking a question. Would you rather left eye in them or um somebody right now? I liked all those girls when I was in the 90s. But what I'm saying is that are they able to like to get snatched? No. That's what I said. I like the 90s when I was in the 90s. I respect all women, okay? If a woman is natural, it's okay, right? But the the here's the here's when they when they come up to me and they be like, man, oh, this is all natural, baby. And I be saying to myself, damn, you need this trip to Columbia. Like, you can use it. Like, it's nothing wrong. So basically, you saying you prefer that over 90s. No, I'm not saying that. Don't put words in my own. I'm actually, that's what you you dancing around this question. You trying to get your channel. You see saying natural and you want to send it to Columbia. If you natural, I love you just knowing. That's not what we're talking about. We're talking about the 90s. What do you prefer? What do you like?

SPEAKER_04 50:19

Would you rather a chick from the 90s? What's your twist? Would you rather 2D and them? Tootie? Tootie? This nigga look nigga dumb.

SPEAKER_02 50:28

This nigga dumb. Yo, this nigga's a two. No, no, listen.

SPEAKER_03 50:34

I rather whatever the woman I like is. Whatever she is, she is. Sunshine. Sunshine. Whatever she is, she is. Whatever she is, she is. It's crazy. Whatever she is, she is. So if she happened to be natural, it's alright then. And I love you, girl. And you the one for me. But is that what you prefer? I asked you, could she have a little lip lippy? No, no, no, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_04 51:04

Can you have a little? No. No, no, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_03 51:07

Little extra? She never had a Faha on?

SPEAKER_02 51:10

In her life? That's crazy.

SPEAKER_03 51:12

SPEAKER_04 51:27

So you know hold on, hold on. I like my blackens that are natural, man. Let's see the shit that you can do. Let's reverse the question. Fab. Let's reverse the question. Do you think these ladies from the 90s, I mean from the the ladies that the I do you think the IG baddies would like to be 90s girls?

Nah, because I don't like this question, man. 95 means more natural. I don't like it. 90s five is fine.

unknown 52:33

SPEAKER_03 52:34

I love my queens, man. I think it wasn't a trend in the 90s to get your body done. I love my queens, man. That's all I'm gonna say. That wasn't the trendy thing. I don't want to get canceled. What you think, space? I like a naturally attractive before you can even, before they put anything on a self, they can you can see that they that's it? Uh uh. That's what I like. A girl like a girl without makeup? She's pretty without making it make it. They still enhancing reports. What about her body though? Body-wise, do I like a natural body versus uh uh enhanced body? I don't, I don't, it could be either way. I don't know. But what happened if the natural body is just that? Because some girls got natural bodies that look like it's enhanced. You know what I mean? That's true too. Accept her.

We gotta think of some ways communities can bring back real childhood experiences for the kids. You gotta let the kids be themselves. You gotta let the kids throw rocks, break glass, steal cars. You gotta allow that experience. First of all, they got they got pause. They gotta start beating kids again. They gotta get the belt out. They gotta start over with, man. But you gotta let the kids when they go outside, you gotta let them be destructive. Nah, but that'd never, that'd you gotta be. But we went outside with destructive and then got beat for it. They just going outside with the stuff. But we different parents than the parents back then. They're not going outside. The parents back, listen though, the parents back then was okay with that because the parents was cool with the next parents. Or you might have knew that that uncle might have been cool. So it was like a community ass whooping. Anybody in the area that was cool with your moms, you might get smacked, popped, whooped by any one of them. That can't go down no more. Because everybody's an op. Now it's like you can't touch my kids. Even if you my family, I don't want you to don't put your hands on my kids. Yeah, pretty much think my mom's has been on that. It's different. As far as communities, I think some of the OGs could do things for the kids, like in the hood, like even like the uh block party kind of situation you did. Man O'Day. Um, I think I believe everybody here has done stuff for, you know, the the kids in their neighborhood. So I think like you could bring back some of those old things like like block parties or like uh uh basketball tournaments or anything like that. And I can I think that keeps the kids active, you know, bus rides and all that great adventure. Bus rides and hunting no, no, 100%, because I was joking earlier, but you you're right. So when they gave me my day, I said, yo, I wanna I wanna do something where we bringing it back and we doing something for the day. Like I had families, I had mothers come up to me and said, Man, oh, I can't afford to take my kids to an amusement park. Right. Because I'm going to get rides and all that. That's what I mean. Like that was that was a cool thing because it wasn't just like somebody going back to their hood and doing a show or something like that. You you really had like bouncy houses and different things, cars that the kids could see. Like you just brought like the things that you know the kids look up to and brought it to the to the hood for them to never come through them blocks, you know what I mean, like that. So it was like, I think, like you said, like bus outs. I was thinking about doing a bus out. Remember a bus out you're gonna be. In every summer it was a bus out. It might have been a couple of them. Go to Great Adventures. Great Adventure.

SPEAKER_04 1:02:11

Yeah, it's no, it's no more community rooms and none of that. We used to have the rec center, uh, you had the boys' club, yeah, community room inside the projects.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:20

It was always something, uh, the projects always had something going on for the kids and shit like that. It was always like some type of organizations and shit like that, but it's none of that. It don't seem to be nothing. Let's not forget, too, the kids aren't playing outside as much as they used to, too. We would we come from an era of going outside and seeing what's shaking. A lot of kids now are inside. They on their devices talking to their friends, same way, same hang out, hang out, but it's in a different way. In a in a in a more cyber way. Yes. We ain't gotta meet on the block no more. And they looking for bus rides or anything. So, what about they meet on the phone?

SPEAKER_04 1:02:53

They saying that uh oh Houston, uh, they did spring break in Houston because we know Miami's a wash, and they said that the younger kids do the social media now coming outside because they know it's popping in Houston, and because they might not can't get in the club, but now they're partying at gas stations and all that, mixing them with the older people.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:11

So now, how do you feel about that? I think that's dangerous.

SPEAKER_04 1:03:14

You think young things they do 16, 15, and we going to do that. No, I think.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:19

I think that was part of the problem. We was we was we was out too early hanging out with older people. We need to allow the kids to be kids and enjoy their childhood and and to do things in the realms of being a child. But I think they do that, and they doing the same thing we did. So now we're we're all there. We shouldn't be hanging, you know, 16-year-olds should be hanging out with a motherfucking 26-year-old. As much as you can as much as you can recreate new things for the community for kids, the kids is looking at what they looking at. The kids is watching us, they watching YouTube, they watching Instagram, they watching TikTok. So it's like, how many of them wanna go to a club with rappers or be around this world or go to a great adventure at 15, 16? You know what I mean? At that age, at that age, that might not be the thing, like that might have been exciting for us, and the options of the other shit was there, but we still had fun as kids. And we're not gonna save everybody. But now, like, a kid might be like, nah, I'm good. A kid might want to stay on his game and uh curve that bus ride. But you got something that will though. So we're not gonna get a big thing. Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's every it's a benefit to the doubt. It's every everybody not the same. But I feel like social media and what you can do on the internet and with a with a handheld device now is much more uh influential than outside activity. Let's do a let's rap about it, bus out this summer. I'm with it. Word about let's let's try it. I'm super with it. Shout out to Chio. My man, my man still do them. Well, bus out is like great adventures. Like a bus out. Yeah, but then they used to call it bus ride. I keep saying bus out. I never heard of bus out. Yeah, bus out. Bus ride. Bus out, bus ride, yeah. Same shit. We drop a low, we we we we do a we do a kid bus, we do a grown-up bus. No, we gotta have a couple buses. You know what I mean? We do the one for the kids. Everybody got we all but majority of us all got kids. Kids get on one and then the adults get on another one. No, because you niggas wanna be on a weed bus. For surely. I don't want to ride on a bus with y'all. Why? That's the weed bus. You wanna be on a shroom bus? The weed bus is crazy. The weed bus is wild. Like, I don't want to be on the bus. I wanna be on a magic school bus. I'm gonna rob with the kids, man. Alright, so you do it. I'm gonna rob the kids. I'm gonna be in there robbing the kids. We, you know what I mean? I'll ride with the kids. I ain't gotta smoke. Great Adventure ain't far. We really might need to do a couple of buses though. Maybe one bus in each borough. I did bus rides before. I did a uh a trip to Great Adventures. We had like two buses leaving from each borough. But it was it wasn't a a family thing. It was it was. I did that too. It was grown ups. It was no grow, it was all grown ups though. That don't count. I'm saying like maybe we Do what two buses in each borough. What we doing? Let's rap about it. That's gonna be grown up or some or for the kids. No, we gotta do for the kids. We gotta two buses in each borough, one for the kids, one for the grown up. You know how it's you could take the kids to Coney Island or something like that. Coney Island. It's crazy. That's that's fucked up, bro. Coney Island. That's fucked up. Where the oh nah, nah, nah. They have way more fun at Great Adventures. Great Adventures in Jersey. Rob Way later on the Beebles. Rob Playland is far. It's upstate. You know what with fake people talking about the computer? These kids don't need to playline. These kids don't know what Freeze Tag and Black Row and none of this shit is, bro. Hot peas and butter, none of these, none of these type of games, man. We used to be outside playing games. They don't care to play that. You might even look at the bus spot as is like some old shit. Even if you put them on to that, it's like that's old. Everything I try to put on the kids on to is some old shit to them.

SPEAKER_04 1:06:55

Like that's old. You know what they might be on that type of thing?

SPEAKER_03 1:06:58

You might be right. Might be some sick niggas touch. But if people moving in the hood to the parents, our generation. But look, man, I'm gonna tell you how nasty it is. They gotta be the little kids. The kids not gonna give a fuck who we are. The parents gonna drag their kids because the parents gonna be fans. Because it's never meeting. You ever meet a parent and they be like, they be begging their kids, like, come on, get in the pick. The 16 year olds don't it's not gonna be a good one. The kid don't want the pick. The kid don't give a fuck about who you are. If we throw a bus ride, we throw a bus ride, we gotta have a streamer bus.

SPEAKER_04 1:07:31

We gotta have a bus full of streamers, and that's the only way it's gonna work. If shit gonna go crazy like that.

I bent through that.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:59

I went to a scalp. I was in DFY. You know this shit is staged. I went to a scared straight.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:06

They brought us the Woodburn. I was in DFY. There's a like a jail for for like little kids. Like for like uh 14, 15, whatever. I was upstate. We was in Holland, and they took us on a trip to go to Woodburn Correctional Facility. It was a scare straight scare straight program. As soon as we got there, they can start screaming in your face. They did that shit.

SPEAKER_02 1:11:27

Dude, you went!

SPEAKER_03 1:11:33

It's like Bro, they put me in the cell with the I wanna come here. He like, I wanna come here next year.

SPEAKER_02 1:11:41

Bring me in here, man.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:44

I'll be back. Bring me in here. I'll be back. Bring me in next year, nigga. I'm like, I'm gonna see you niggas in a minute. I'll see y'all. Y'all popping that shit. All this shit ain't gonna work on me. Nah, let's stop. I'm gonna remember all you niggas' faces. Nah, I'll be right back. I think it was a good program to have, man. It's because kids needed to maybe get their, you know what I'm saying? Like fucking get their act together. Like, you know what I'm saying? Some of them little niggas wasn't going, man. I ain't gonna be like, my church took me to one of them shit scared shit. They took me to Rikers Island. So when we first born in Rikers, a nigga man scared, like just nervous, it's just just cold.

SPEAKER_04 1:12:19

And now they start walking us in the hallways where the where you see the inmates and shit like that.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:23

I start seeing everybody from my block. They're like, yo, my what's up, little nigga? What you? I'm like, oh shit.

SPEAKER_04 1:12:27

It just turned regular after that. Like half the hood is in this motherfucker. That shit was the craziest shit. You know. And then the church people looking at me, like, how the fuck do you know all of these fucking I'm like 12, 13. Like, that shit was a crazy ass, a crazy ass thing.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:41

Knowing niggas from the block. I think it was good though, because it's like they can't even do that no more. Nah, nah, they don't even do that no more. Because if you was an at-risk you. You gotta think about it, how the generation just switched over. If you was getting in trouble early on in your life, you probably needed some correction and direction. Like, so it's like it wasn't gonna work for everybody, but if you probably got to a few kids, like I I went there, so it was like, yeah, obviously it didn't work for me, and maybe a couple other niggas, but I I'm pretty sure some kids. They probably like, like, hell no, I ain't doing this shit. This shit is crazy.

SPEAKER_04 1:13:19

It was crazy, they did all that. They put us in the cell with niggas I thought was inmates, and they would end up be uh correction officers at the end of the when we was walking out, they was all correction officers and shit like that. That was doing all the scary yo, you know where you at and all that.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:32

Probably, yeah. Cause I think the idea of it was to scare you and deter you from a life that would that would that that would eventually allow you to be there. Like you were supposed to remember that they was taking niggas sneakers and all that shit. They was doing you. But when you like with some, like when you like a little nigga that thought he was tough already, or you, if you already thought you was tough and you kind of know that this shit is fake, it's like, these niggas ain't gonna really touch me. You know what I'm saying? So you just also really know it's like a trip there too, with a sense. So if they did some tricky shit like, yo, we gonna just gonna leave y'all here overnight, then the niggas will start getting scared. Oh shit. I went with a bunch of niggas might have panicked. No, it was different with the city. That's when the panicking gonna start happening. I think the the camera crew leave and shit. Yeah. And leave it. What the fuck, like in there? Yeah. But that shit probably would've switched up. That's what's been a little bit. The thing that they had on their side is this jail is scary anyway. Even as a criminal, the first time you walk into a jail or prison, it's scary, bro. Like, I don't I don't give a fuck who you are. Like, it's you like that shit trash. Yeah, it's trash. Or the youth. Yeah, state of the ball. You ain't never been, that shit is doodle. Yeah. Every part, every piece of that shit is trash. So, you know, go on a bus trip. Stay away from the bullshit. Stay away from the jail bus. Yeah, stay away from the jail bus. Go on a bus ride. I'm not on a jail bus, but just throwing that out there. I'm gonna not let them know which one is the jail bus. They gotta just turn off this right there. Like, no! They gotta be on the window, vegan. Does social media create unrealistic expectations about how fast success and money should come because I think so. Creators, a thousand percent. A thousand to three thousand dollars. But is it realistic? Is it unrealistic? Because nowadays that's like a real job. I think it's unrealistic to people who just see it. They don't even see the work that gets with nobody's success, really. They don't online, you don't see what somebody had to do. So when they see that, it's just like an instant gratification. They're like, yo, I just yeah, I just see this. I want this. And it makes kids or people who don't even know what you gotta do to get this success think that it was just uh overnight. You want to see you see you see the results, but not the journey. Yeah, every overnight success, it took years of them behind the scenes that you ain't even know nothing. You ain't even know.

SPEAKER_04 1:16:11

What I see with this is like when I start thinking about dudes like Elon Musk talking about in a few years to come, working would be optional. Cause when you start seeing these social media apps now paying out people one to three thousand dollars, it's like that it must be about a bunch of that shit to happen where niggas just not even leave their house and be able to make thousands of dollars and feed themselves and not even move nowhere and shit like that in the future. A bunch of people can do that now, like that's where everything is.

SPEAKER_03 1:16:43

Right, so social media gave way to an avenue of creators, influencers to make money on, and I think it is become actually like a profession. Just filming your life. My daughter Kyrie, my oldest Kyrie, she ten now. She she ten now? Kai ten. Well crazy. But she followed as a family that I guess they um they day-to-day film the whole household. It's the dad, the mom, however many kids they got. I'm I might have tapped them one or two times and watched it with her. But they started off in an apartment in like 2021 or something like that. Now they just bought some big, 20-bedroom, all off of something. Meaning in Texas or wherever they moved to or whatever, but it's all off of them just showing their day-to-day what they eating for breakfast, uh, how they brushing their teeth, how they what they doing for lunch. They're doing it consistently.

SPEAKER_03 1:22:08

What?

SPEAKER_04 1:22:09

The restaurant might be clicking.

SPEAKER_03 1:22:11

I think, yeah, I think he might have had a good year. Might have helped his business grow and he wanted to show his appreciation. He got yo look. Is it wrong for him to do that though? Oh, he did the right thing. It's a new man. It might be a young old man. I feel like in that you never know. That might have been a crew that he really built his business with. Yeah. Like a lot of shit, you don't be knowing, bro. Like you don't really know the full backstory. Like them people might be his day one people when he first had the idea doing that. But then it got to where it got. Or he could have been just a business that it's niggas do do that. They helped him. Niggas pass chains out. They helped his business grow. Yeah, they helped his business grow. But he did the I think he did a very phenomenal job. I think it's honorable. I think, you know, when you get a chance to show appreciation, especially for the people that work for you, help you grow and help your business grow, you know, just whatever you could do, whatever, whether it's bonuses, whether it's gifts, whether it's chains, whether it's a girl. Whether it's a trip. Yeah, whatever it could be. It could be whatever. I don't think it's a good idea. I don't think it always gotta be a not knocking at, but I don't think it always has to be in the form of a material object. No, it could be a trip. It could be all kinds of different shit. So what about colleagues? How you feel about colleagues? Did you did you buy your colleagues chains too? What? What? Colleagues.

In that moment that he just described? Of course.

SPEAKER_03 1:34:58

SPEAKER_02 1:35:10

It might be a until it gets to what he tells me.

SPEAKER_03 1:35:15

Now you walk in the crib and she got the thong on. Now you like she was looking at me. I'm not gonna fuck my man with the cry. I didn't ask you that. I asked you what you do.

SPEAKER_03 1:35:58

So, so what I'm saying is, finish off, finish off. What I'm saying is, I don't want to play that game with my niggas if that's his girlfriend. Like, I've got I got lifetime friends. We've been friends all our lives. We never played. We knew the limits to that. Like, niggas, of course, if it's if it's like a fun chick, it's like, cool, whatever. You can hit her, like whatever. Like, I hit her, you hit her, whatever. We we laughing about it. But this is your girl. Right. This is your wifey. You you've you made an agreement. Right. I'm not never gonna do that. So if she acting like she got the peacing disease, she acting like she's flirty, and she wanna act like she wants some other shit, you're Mr. David. With all due respect, no, I'm not even gonna tell you that. You know why? Because you not might not be ready for that. And it might be a figment of my imagination. So do you he might not be, he might, he might be thinking that. And it might not be that.

SPEAKER_04 1:36:50

Do you think Okay, that's one thing. It might not be that. Well, all right, so what about this? How you feel about you having a roommate and now he has a girlfriend living in that crib. Do you think that y'all should continue to be roommates or y'all should start thinking about getting separate places?

I don't see me coming out the shop. Right, no. Because I I'm coming out morning wood, like I don't want to. It's a lot going on. I'm coming out, period. Huh? As a man, you don't want your to slip around, be outside, like you don't want to be able to do that. I don't want you right. So as a man There's no comfortability in there. So if I was him, so you're saying from his perspective? I'm saying, well, how would you feel about it? Do you think at that point, moving forward, be you need to talk to your partner, like, yo, we might have to get separate? Yeah, yeah, yeah. We might need to, we might need to separate this because I don't want to fuck your girl. You understand? I don't want to fuck your girl. That's what I was with. And here's the thing, I'm not gonna fuck your girl. I'm not gonna fuck your girl. And this is this is this is beyond what we got. I mean, we beyond this, but do you think in that situation you should let your your roommate know or your say say that's your man and that's your roommate. Should you let him know you moving your girl in? Yeah, you should. Or should that just be something he peeps? You should. I think communication is the key to everything, bro. I belie I believe that. Right. Yo, yo, Mrs. David, we roommates. Yo, listen, you know I've been fucking with Shorty. She about to be a little bit more than a little bit. You know what I'm saying? She about to move over here with us. You know what I'm saying? You know, I'ma I'm gonna make sure. Well, me as the type of nigga I am, I'ma say word, I'm gonna find some other shit.
