So Runtz, Cookies

Cookies.
As a brand, because there's so many strains under that umbrella that you're going to find
something you fuck with.
Burner's like a mad scientist.
At first, I was against it.
Against Burner?
Cookies was a brand.
Burner was my partner, but the weed, I wasn't fucking with.
I was just like I'm cool
when he come tell me
like yo this is called
pineapple lasagna
I'm straight
cause I smoke OG
I smoke perfect
that was the weeds
that I smoked
you know what I'm saying
when good weed came
that's what it was
you know what I'm saying
so when he come through
with the muffin mix
and shit
I'm like I'm straight on
doing that shit but one time my bus it was. So when he come through with the muffin mix and shit, I'm like, I'm straight on doing
that shit.
But one time, my bus, we went through the Bay Area before we went to LA, and I had nothing
coming from wherever I was.
You know what I'm saying?
So he laced me with so much shit.
I was in the back of the bus.
I'm like, if I'm going to have to.
So just sitting back there by myself, I rolled, and I was like, oh.
So you said if you don't find OG, you won't yeah I won't smoke oh man we was like that forever oh forever I remember when his album dropped he called me a couple years back and was
like look I can't find nothing but they got cookies around me can I smoke that I was like no
your album dropped don't smoke cookies on the day of your album. I was like, find the real weed.
That's how I felt until, now I'll tell you, London Pound Cake.
Yeah, that's hard.
Gary Payton.
Gary Payton, that's hard.
He broke a hair.
He broke a hair.
Hey, Gary Payton.
Cereal Milk.
We got Cereal Milk.
And Grenadine.
There's like four of them.
Yeah, we had all four of them.
The city's got so many.
All right. You know what? He broke two the night before and two the night after. Yeah. We got four of them. We had all four of them. We got so many.
All right.
You know what?
He broke two the night before and two the night after.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
So now you're into the cannabis business.
This, I presume, is yours.
Yeah, absolutely.
That's it right there.
And stores in California?
Yup.
Yup.
Yup.
Yup.
I don't have the list on hand of what the stores it is, but-
The consumer will find it.
Yeah, that's the fun part.
That's the fun part.
You know, in anything, like sneaker culture, anything you came up with, if it's right there, that means everybody had it.
So you don't want that pair.
You kind of want to wiggle around the shit and go find it.
When you find that, motherfuckers is.
Yeah, they're going to find that.
Yeah, you feel good about having that one.
They already did bootleg in my bag and shit,
just like they're doing the other shit.
Oh, wow.
So that's when you know.
Let's make some noise for that bootleg.
We started.
So I'm going to bounce all over the place right now
because we got things to cover.
So what do you like more?
Making the music or performing it?
Oh, man.
Two-part answer.
I like making the music because it's this setting.
I got the homies and shit, and it's kicking it.
And we can't really get into too much because we inside.
Right.
We're in the A.C.
Nobody fucking with us about what we doing. Right. And AC, nobody fucking with us
about what we doing.
You know what I'm saying?
It's a good thing.
I like performing it
because I don't rap over my,
over my already recorded music.
You rap over the instrument.
It's the instrument.
Because you a real MC.
So when I leave.
That's phasing away.
Right.
I started going to concerts now. I'm an OG now. No. And I see everyone that's overasing away. I've started going to concerts now.
I'm an OG now.
No.
And I've seen everyone that's over their vocals.
And I'm like, oh.
That's been happening for a minute.
No, I've seen everyone that's over their vocals.
All the new generation.
I watched the other guys.
That sounds terrible, man.
Yeah.
Well, it's because the process of recording some of that stuff is not human.
Right.
So you can't get up on a stage and sound like a
fucking robot. And
dance. You cannot dance,
crowd surf, do a backflip, climb
on the shit, and fucking have your breath
to deliver the lyrics.
So a lot of them dudes just come out and do the
ad-libs. And I'm like, damn,
that nigga got the same bag as me.
And I can't wear this sweatshirt
again.
Like, everything's done.
And my nigga just look like he about to go straight to the after party.
Straight just counting his money and dancing with it on Instagram.
But fucking, like, I got to take a whole nap before I guess another move.
Because I did a show.
You know what I'm saying?
But, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Now, you, like, I went to a club.
I forget if you invited me or if I just came.
I think it was Club Revolution.
And I think it was just you on the set.
I think you had an opener or something.
Here in Fort Lauderdale.
In Fort Lauderdale.
Yeah, yeah.
And I remember just going there and just studying and seeing your cult following.
Like, I didn't hear about the show on the radio.
I didn't really hear about the Flyers.
I forget how.
I don't forget.
I saw it on you on Twitter or. I didn't really hear about the Flyers. I forget how, I don't forget. I saw it on you on Twitter
or whatever I did.
But I went
and I went to support
and I just was,
it was bigger than support
because I wanted to see
your actual crowd.
I wanted to see
and it was like,
that,
like it reminded me
of like a Tech N9ne almost.
You know what I'm saying?
For sure.
It's a whole group of people
you didn't see in your city.
Exactly.
You don't even know. Anytime like't see it in your city. Exactly.
You don't even know.
Anytime my rap partners come to New Orleans and shit, you know what I'm saying?
That's what they'll run into me.
They'll tell that to me.
And you got all diverse people.
You got white folks.
For sure.
You got Spanish people.
And it feels like you're one of the first artists to actually build that kind of colfón,
besides tech.
Yeah.
But it seems like you're one of the first going back.
Rob Markman, I grew up as the internet was becoming prominent.
Rob Markman, So I was able to do so much from the computer, like gauging what's working.
If I put out a fucking mixtape we did in the apartment, and then On Smash or 2 Dope Boys
or say some shit.
Rob Markman, Because of On Smash and 2 Dope Boys.
Rob Markman, They say something about it that day I can see
that's how I learned
about the comments
and all that shit
I got all that
from right there
cause I'm like
oh well that record
worked
let's drop another one
in two days
just to keep
my face on these things
you know what I'm saying
that made you do that
so you know
and the motherfuckers
who getting online
to look for shit
anyway
that's a different
a different facet
you know
a whole another group of people.
Now, we know you was on Atlantic Records.
What do you like more, independent or major?
Independent.
Independent?
Yeah.
Wow, you asked that fast.
Because when you're dealing with a major or another label, it's other people.
So how can these other people direct what I did?
I made this.
This is what I think I want to do with it.
Oh, we should hold it.
We're going to do this.
Let's put songs on it.
I wasn't thinking that when I was making it.
My partners ain't say that.
You know what I'm saying?
So, this is what I'm doing.
Rob Markman, Right.
So, independent, I ain't going to lie.
I've been able to hurt myself too because I put some shit out, recorded it.
Like, put it out tonight.
Fuck it. Don't mix it. Don't do nothing. hurt myself too because I put some shit I record and like put it out tonight fuck it
don't mix it
don't do nothing
and when in the comments
for sure it's like
oh man
I would bang this
but
his vocals are muddy
so and so
that's the level
that's the regard
they hold me under
right now
even though so much
other shit is happening
you know what I'm saying
nobody's mixing shit
don't fuck with me
bro
if I didn't mix my shit just cause I've been around that long you know what I'm saying? Nobody's mixing shit. Don't fuck with me. If I didn't mix my shit just because I've been around that long, you know what I'm saying?
They're like, nah, dawg, you got to kind of like...
But, but, but, but, being independent, I've been able to just rush shit out and not make
mistakes because I'm like, yo, that could have been a bigger record.
If I would have gave that to Rick Ross or something to jump on, if I would have put one of the homies on it, that could have been a bigger record. If I would have gave that to Rick Ross or something
to jump on, if I would have put one of the homies on it,
that could have been this. But I wanted it out
that night because I'm so connected
to my listeners that
I know I'm going to get the response from them
if I put it out there for them on the moment.
Because they was up smoking anyway. So they're like,
oh shit, perfect, just rolled up. This nigga just dropped
the record. I like to see that shit.
But the next day, as far as the world go, the industry go, it nigga just dropped the record. I like to see that shit. But the next day, as far as the world
go, the industry go, it flew
right under the radar, you know what I'm saying?
Now, predominantly, you got pot smokers,
right? For sure. Do you have fans that come up
to you and be like, I don't smoke, but I fuck with you?
Absolutely, yeah. Because you know what?
I got motherfuckers who've been in trouble.
You know what I'm saying?
The shit I'm talking about
is chillin'. And motherfuckers who've done a lot just want to chill. All gangsters fuck with me. You know what I'm saying? Oh, okay, but on probation. Yeah, because the shit I'm talking about, like, is chilling.
And motherfuckers who've done a lot just want to chill.
Old gangsters fuck with me because it's like, man, nah, this nigga rapping over some cool shit.
Right.
It ain't that.
You know, they're not making me jump out the car and pop the trunk and no shit like that.
Right.
So they fuck with me.
You know what I'm saying?
Old gangsters, strippers.
Right.
Strippers like, because they've been there fucking the whole night. Let me find out you got the stripper got the stripper demographic because till 7 a.m. They was in there
Now it's like damn
I just want to smoke my weird and chill and count this money on the floor at the apartment or whatever the fuck they do
You know I'm saying I'm the soundtrack for this shit. So let's describe New Orleans to a person
who's never been
to New Orleans.
Highway to the danger zone.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And y'all got the mausoleums
above.
Why?
Because, you know,
we built on the swamp.
Yeah, you can.
So you bury your loved one
and the motherfucker
go out to the Gulf of Mexico.
You talking to a spot
where the handstone is
and your man's like,
what?
Sharks from the south. You just drifted all the way out you don't know you talk to me I put you on top the
ground but so this is a scribe New Orleans for a person who never been in
New Orleans and all they heard about is bourbon street go go where you saw go to the stuff you saw don't go to the stuff you heard okay you heard
juvenile talk about the magnolia project skip it you skip what did you see on television
where did you see the people with trumpets walking in the line
catch that one right there you know what i saying? Because the rest of this shit, you're going to get just what you paid for.
You're going to get it.
Nobody even really could feel bad because it's like, you know, it looked like that as soon as you got out the car.
You didn't even have to do that shit.
You did that.
Yeah.
So, you know.
Yeah.
For sure.
It's the soup.
It tells you.
Don't feed animals.
Don't put your children by the cage.
Don't do this.
Don't hang this over this. Just enjoy it. Just't feed animals. Don't put your children by the cage. Don't do this. Don't hang this over this.
Just enjoy it.
Just check it out.
Look at the alligators.
You know what I'm saying?
Don't fucking dangle your leg and see if that alligator hungry.
The alligator hungry.
Right, right.
For real.
Yeah.
Any better or any worse after the Katrina and all that?
Man, it just switched places.
The danger zone
switched sides
because
this area
was already
fucked up
and the
gentrification machine
wanted that stuff
already.
Right.
So they bumped that
and then what you thought
was a nicer
urban area,
like what my mom and dad
fucking got out the project
and moved to
is the project now.
You know what I'm saying? Like like they were so proud of a spot
You know I'm saying but all the niggas they left it tops it terribly and they all right there
You know that happened here with Hurricane Andrew as well. Oh, yeah
I think that's how I got it got crazy because people got displacements motherfuckers who not from this hood
Y'all put us all in this hood and he was already
was waiting to catch us right and it's on now because we all live right there they put everybody
right on top of everybody so they got they got crazy did you live through like the cash money
uh no limit uh discrepancies when they was describing because i had both of them sat in
the same chair and both of them kind of admitted we ain't with each other like i didn't
i i could I didn't understand
cause they both gave money
like check me out you know me now
so you think I understood how two
entities worth millions
of dollars wasn't jammed
I still don't understand
the table truth
before millions of dollars I think their projects
beefed
that's yeah for sure but I could not understand after the fact how if we already won
right fuck that shit all right fuck it let's go you know saying like I was the
one who was in whoever air from both sides when I was little like I don't
know why I don't talk right but I would just go this club ago to class just do
whatever you're gonna to do, man.
But I think it would be nuts.
You know, my school would definitely lose it if y'all just did that shit.
You know, but then the Cash Money Rough Riders thing.
Bam.
That went.
And I looked like a genius to all my homies because they were like, man.
I was like, yeah, see?
Now imagine if they did that shit right here.
And it would have been them.
You know what I'm saying?
Cash Money No Limits.
Yeah, bro.
I would have been crazy.
The whole thing. I never even thought of that. That's it. I thought about it what I'm saying cash money no limit I would've been crazy the whole thing
I never even thought of that
that's it
I got goosebumps
when you just said that
Jesus
cause I mean
is it too late though
is it too late
for something like that
I mean New Orleans
takes on the world
I think I would buy
if they still got together
like if Juvenile
who would go from
the no limit
camp
just his name
New Orleans artist
we'll just go
Juvenile, Mystical,
You,
Wayne,
Master P,
Baby,
that's my nigga too.
Imagine, I would definitely go see that.
If it would be one set, that would be crazy.
But if that shit would have happened
at the height of
everybody,
you know what I'm saying?
But I'm even saying business-wise
now, they could still do business
together and uplift the city
and uplift the youngins.
I agree with him more
because that was the highlight of both of them.
Of course, back then, but we already
passed that. Anything you do to
help is going to help.
You know what I'm saying?
You know what I'm saying?
It's not too late.
They were going to come together and say, look, man, we're going to turn it down.
We can do something and change it for the youngins coming up now.
Master P got a wrestling league right now.
This nigga's going to sell it.
I didn't click on it.
I saw it, and I didn't click on it.
Shit, I'm about to call him up and say, I'm about to wrestle for you, P.
Let's go.
What exactly?
What's the abbreviation?
That's the first thing I thought.
ECW, WCW, WCW.
House of Glory.
House of Glory.
So it's H-O-G.
I think.
I might be wrong.
Has it my wrong?
I think it's H-O-G, House of Glory.
I'm not sure.
Okay.
I mean, it's smart.
Should I want a wrestling team?
I'm about to go.
No.
A team or a league?
That's his WWF.
He's got a league.
Yeah, he got a league.
Yeah, yeah.
So, that's crazy.
I love Master P as a businessman.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, I watch them do it.
House of Glory.
Damn, I'm on point, baby.
Goddamn, make some noise for me.
Goddamn, make some noise for me.
Goddamn.
I'm on point.
I'm on point.
That's it.
So, you come up in the game.
Obviously, Wayne and them comes before you, correct?
Like, out at least, right?
Yeah, absolutely.
How do you even, like, link up with these guys?
I know your guys are predominantly from the same neighborhood.
But how does that even happen?
You asked for champagne, so I got to do the best champagne.
I don't know if you know that.
That's Ace of Spades for you, sir.
Oh, I didn't see that.
Yes, that is, sir. I didn't see that. You just said champagne, so you ain't got you the best champagne. I don't know if you know that. That's Ace of Spades for you, sir. Oh, I didn't see that. Yes, that is, sir.
I didn't see that.
You don't win.
You just said champagne, so you ain't say what type of champagne, so you know what?
And you stepped on the bag.
I got you the best.
No, it's for you.
I got you the best.
I got you the best.
I got you the best.
But I got myself one, God damn it.
The first time I had a bottle of this.
Ace of Spades.
Yeah.
I opened it without really looking at what I was doing.
I was in a strip club, and I cut my fingers so bad oh god fucking nuts and I had to like
maintain my cool around bitches and shit like I've got like a little pain sweat
because I'm looking at what the fuck I did yeah but it's like a third time I'm paying the strip clubs like we gonna watch you out here in my head I only go to the one
in my city
I only go there
they got very good wings
you know what I'm saying
I honestly just go to eat
if you ever see footage of me
they have some
they never can really post it
I'm not gonna lie
cause it's me eating wings
and like
kinda
casting money aside
and not really doing nothing
so it's like
I don't really care
about what's going on
so they never can really post
like Spilly came through.
You're just like you just fucked with the wings.
I'm not going to lie.
I wouldn't think New Orleans would have a good
strip club. I'm not going to lie to you.
Yeah well.
The best one.
The one that we fuck with is not
really a strip club. What are these like now?
Bikini clubs?
Bikini bars? Like a go-go? We fuck with is not really sure what it is like now bikini

Wallet chain and the shirt that looked like tattoos or something.
Right.
Oh, yeah.
Ed Hardy.
He was playing with the snakes and all that kind of shit. Well, Salusi, we don't know if you know Currency, but our show is about bigging up our legends.
So many people, when you get 10 years in this game, they want to tell you that you're washed up.
They want to tell you that.
But not over here.
We want to tell you when you have 10 years or more that you're seasoned.
That we understand who you are.
And we're going to big you up.
Because in every other culture, in every other culture, they motherfucking praise you when you get old.
Ours is the only culture that when we get older, it's not even a word called washed up in fucking rock and roll.
They don't even have that word.
You know what I'm saying?
So we're going to celebrate you tonight, god damn it.
You know what's crazy about that?
Some of the younger artists think that I'm kind of young like them.
And they say stuff that doesn't
register with me and then I get a chance to kind of tell them like-
Rob Markman, Like you and Fab both got like, people know
that y'all elder but y'all got the young nigga past.
For sure.
For sure.
Rob Markman, Like y'all got the young nigga past.
People think y'all like 12 and shit.
I'll fucking like kick it with a motherfucker and they'll be telling me,
yo this record you did, that's what pushed me to make me want to do shit.
You know when you did that and I'm, yo, that was somebody else beat.
That was a remix.
That was this.
That was this nigga record.
Listen to this record, you know what I'm saying?
That's always been good to be able to do that.
Rob Markman, Jr.: Who's some of the other dudes you listening to?
I fuck with Playboi Carti.
That's my pilot.
Rob Markman, Jr.: Playboi Carti.
That's my pilot.
Fucking YBN Carti.
Rob Markman, Jr.: True to his point.
Rob Markman, Jr.: Oh, that's the lyric we do with Doug Green.
He's true to his point. I got records with him. Rob Markman, YBN Cardé. Rob Markman, True Dids Pen.
Rob Markman, True Dids Pen.
Rob Markman, I got records with him.
That's one of them.
Rob Markman, DC, Maryland.
Rob Markman, I thought he was from Mars.
Rob Markman, For sure.
Rob Markman, Right now, for sure.
Rob Markman, For sure.
Rob Markman, Damn, who else I really... It's wild. I like niggas, I fuck with them, but as far as if I'm jamming or listening to it, it's
few.
Showline Mafia, I like all them dudes.
G Perico, West Coast, he young and shit, and he doing his thing, but outside of that.
But the dudes who I'm naming, shit shit.
This is it.
This is it. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. you know but the original OG like the original OG first verse came out can I get you a little
you know into this this is the train my guy's been growing who I met this has been around since the Grateful Dead. Since they run.
And it just wasn't named anything.
So they tried, the laboratory people tried for years and years,
bringing me different OGs.
At one time, we had one called Pilot Talk OG.
We didn't really kick it because I didn't really like it.
It took forever and forever and forever.
And then I was like, what's this?
And they already had this growing. And they was like, man, we've been fucking tweaking this for a minute but it's been around
you know and once I felt like now this is it shut the lab down and get this and
let's just run this right here you know and the guy fucking laid it on me like
yeah it's just been around grateful day Grateful Dead. You said Grateful Dead shit. Yeah, for sure. That's crazy.
And then it made sense to me, too, because it's like, that's why they were so ahead.
They was making that shit, man.
Drugs make the music.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't know all the way what Marvin Gaye was doing.
It was a lot of shit back then.
But when I listen to the music,
that's always what I attribute it to.
My man was roasted.
So he heard different shit
and bam, you know,
you can't do that
unless you get to a thing.
And this is my thing.
It's my unlocking tool
to do what I do, you know.
That's good.
That's good.
That's for town.
So Tekasi just got $10 million. He wants to do a song I do. That's good. That's good. That's for town. So,
Tekashi just got
$10 million.
He wants to do
a song with you.
That's true?
Is that true?
I don't know.
This is the rumor
right now.
Let's just roll with it.
I saw something.
Let's just roll with it.
He wants to do
a song with you right now.
I can't fuck with it.
He got $200,000
for you.
I can't fuck with it.
You can have it.
The hood not even
going to respect it.
I hate the big guy.
When you said
he got $10 million?
The rumor is, the rumor is, he got $10 million. What label gave him $10 million? The rumor is, the rumor is he got-
What label gave him $10 million?
The label that he's on right now.
What, the FBI records?
Yeah, no.
Yeah, maybe them too.
Like, what the fuck?
What label?
What dickhead label?
Yes, the same label he was on, yeah.
What label was he on?
I forget what it is, but they got $10 million.
$10K.
Yeah, some shit like that, yeah.
For real.
Yeah.
For real.
He's out?
He's like moving?
No, not yet, no. I mean, I don't believe it. He's gonna book, he's gonna book a place. Yeah, some shit like that. Yep. For real. Yeah.
He's out?
He's like moving around?
No, not yet.
No.
He's going to book, he's going to do, he's going to travel around?
I wouldn't know.
There's all these bitches out there.
Yeah.
Well, you know what?
There is a demographic.
Everybody not real.
Right.
There's us. No, no, no.
He both real.
And there's the other motherfuckers that's not.
He's going to work. We got to listen to music. I don't want to hear these motherfuckers talking about being real. I'm not real right there's other motherfuckers that's not he's like we
gotta listen to music I don't want to hear these motherfuckers
talking about being real I'm not real and see this in his case there's so many
people who kind of do agree with him because these guys did kidnap him this
guy did try to this guy did fuck his baby moms so there's a lot of people who
agree with him I don't necessarily a agree because once you say you gang,
then you got to ride
with that culture.
So I don't agree with him,
but I know people
who necessarily
sit around and be like,
man,
them niggas fucked my girl.
Them niggas did this.
Like,
there's some people
and some of them
are real dudes.
And I'm sure
if he goes overseas,
they don't give a fuck.
Yeah, overseas,
they probably don't give a fuck.
I mean,
I'm sure there's going to be
one or two people
that's going to walk up
and say something. Somebody's going to hit him with an egg or something. Yeah, overseas, they probably don't give a fuck. I mean, I'm sure there's going to be one or two people that's going to walk up and say something.
Somebody's going to hit him
with an egg or something.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But predominantly,
predominantly,
I don't think his audience
was real niggas to begin with.
Do you,
can you think of somebody
that you hear
getting on this
first day out
You know what it's going to be?
You know what it's going to be?
It's going to be the producers.
I'm telling you.
It's not...
Producers that we know?
Yeah, it's going to be...
Because they ain't going to
turn down that 200K
when they owe it.
Well, yeah.
I'm just being...
You know what they're going to say?
They're going to be like,
well, we gave him this beat
before he became a rat
or we did this or whatever.
Trust me,
producers ain't turning down
shit like that.
And I wouldn't hold
a producer
the same cannibalism.
I hear you,
but I still don't see it, man.
Not as easy
as you think it's going to be.
I'm just saying.
Listen,
you know,
life is real.
Life is real.
So it depends on
if you got somebody
that got a boat note
and they sitting around
and want an extra 200 grand,
they're like,
fuck it,
I don't got to go to the studio with him.
I don't got to see him.
I see a lot of people.
I see respectful people submitting that work.
I mean, no, we've heard that at the table right here.
People saying that they see that automatic.
Look, I got no horse in that race,
but I just think that it gets to a point where it's ridiculous.
It is ridiculous.
No, I agree with you,
but I'm just giving you the reality of what's going on out there.
Our top producer
who's probably dealing with some financial shit
ain't saying no to 200K from this kid.
Motherfucker.
I'm just being honest with you.
Like, that's why you're in the right,
because you know that.
And especially...
Producer-wise, yeah.
They don't have to live under the same...
Like, a person like Timbaland,
a person like Pharrell
is not a street person.
They're not held to this.
I still don't see them doing it. I don't see them doing it either. I better get him on my bad example. I see Pharrell going. person like Pharrell is not a street person they're not held I still don't see them doing it I don't see them doing it neither I better get
on my back I see Pharrell calling if someone call for Roxy for all not doing
it I see but I'm just saying there's other people that maybe for all the
Timberland was a bad example because they We know they're financially well off
Yeah
I don't think it has to do anything
With being gangsta
Not being gangsta
They're going to see like
This is a reputation
For sure
For sure
And one thing
And one thing
Most people say
When they meet the kid
They be like
Yo
The kid is alright
Like the kid is alright
When they meet him
But that's before he rap
Right
You know what I'm saying
So
I'm just saying
That's what I think
I think it's going to be
One of the prominent producers
that's going to take 200K from him
and give him a fucking...
But he doesn't need that even.
He doesn't need a prominent producer.
I mean, but you know what?
That's going to break the mold, though.
But that's going to break the mold, though.
He's going to...
I don't think it's going to happen.
I believe so.
I believe so.
I don't think it's going to happen.
We're going to...
Kanye.
That's my joke.
Listen, I see Kanye.
Kanye is the perfect example. Kanye would do it. That's the perfect example. I can see Kanye. Perfect example. believe so we're gonna do that we just You're right. We just going to make it on a religious tip. Jesus. Jesus. Save him. Yeah. I can see that.
I can see that.
Jesus.
Save him.
Yo, did we just executive produce it?
No, no, no.
Chill, chill, chill.
Yo, that's some fucked up shit, though.
That's the world we're living in.
Yeah, it's nuts right now.
That's the world we're living in.
I can't believe we watched that one unfold.
Yeah, I would never, I would never.
It's been a while.
It seems like a slow train crash, though, that we saw coming.
Yeah, but I'm not going to lie.
I foresaw a darker thing.
You know what I'm saying?
For it to be worse than what it is?
I saw the street crashing down on him in a way not so much whatever happened.
I don't even know how that shit even happened.
Yeah, it's beyond all of us.
And in court
in the first fucking place.
Me, I just was like,
niggas gonna get tired of you.
Right.
And eventually...
No, he started telling them
the next day.
Eventually, like,
they gonna, you know what I'm saying?
They call him Monday morning.
He started telling them
Monday afternoon.
Like, it didn't take a lot.
What happened? How did he even... he just was a person of interest they do like this I mean it
seemed like it was open case for a minute on them yeah yeah yeah yeah he
was just like that's all right what does that think about me the day about New
York is it is everything that like we could be doing things that y'all do in
New Orleans but it means fact that it is in New York and it's in the city, it would be magna five, ten times more.
I check that out every time somebody get popped with a gun in New York.

I'll then be joined in conversation by guests such as Western historian Dr. Randall
Williams and best-selling author and meat-eater founder Stephen Ranella. I'll correct my kids
now and then where they'll say when cave people were here and I'll say it seems like the ice age

I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures
and your guide on good company,
the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next.
In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but
ordinary. We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche
into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly
make them feel seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that
there's so many stories out there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person
discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen.
Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide, and hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the
most crowded of markets. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Now, I hate to ask this, but it popped up in the Google.
And I Googled you a couple of different ways, and it popped up.
And it said, because we knew you had a discrepancy with Dave Dash,
and then I said you had won a $3 million lawsuit.
So if you could, we wanted to just ask you, has that been resolved?
Everything is great?
Or how did that go? Me and Dame straight.
Okay.
That is madness.
Right.
Yeah.
Remember, we talked about it.
I was like, man.
We talked about it last time.
I was like, I'm not built like that.
I can't keep fucking going.
You know what I'm saying?
I thought this was a new pop-up.
Yeah, it probably is new.
Right.
Just because, you know, when you don't do something, when you're not doing something,
they're just going to say you did something.
And that's what's up.
But nah, fucking, I like, I spoke to her recently.
Like, fucking, like, she not pick shit pop up on your Instagram sometimes.
Uh-huh.
So, dude just popped up
and I was like
whoa
the fuck
so I just
hit him
like man
what the fuck
like what's
happening man
and that was
that like
fucking
that's dope
big up Dave
Dave
yeah he was
smoking a joint
as a pool
that's what I
was thinking
you was doing
fuck it
I mean
I had a good
time
in that situation
and it
it's how I learned a bit about taking care of everything on my own.
Because you've been on different labels.
You've been on—
Yeah, for sure.
And with that situation, they had—
that's how I learned you didn't have to have that big-ass fucking camera
and this whole fucking spiel going to make it.
When you learned this?
When I got there
and they had the
5D Canon camera.
That was my first time
seeing a 5D camera.
And they shot
one of the homies,
the first dude
I smoked a joint with,
Michael Sterling,
Michael Sterling Eaton.
And just so happened,
he's like,
yeah,
I shot some ads for Nike,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And I used to do shit
for them back in the day.
We like to say filmed here.
Oh, filmed.
We don't like to say filmed.
Yeah, yeah.
We're scared of death.
All right.
Oh, dig it.
Dig it.
And then he filmed.
He shot.
He filmed a video.
He filmed a video for me
that evening.
You know what I'm saying?
And it fucking catapulted me
into MTV fucking Fab Five,
like people who was going to make it
and all this kind of shit.
And I had never seen a video done,
like shot and then edited
and given back to me that night.
I had it that night.
You know what I'm saying?
I come from like Jeff Panzer and shit,
Universal,
and they would shoot shit and then it's like
weeks and weeks and weeks
until you see it
and then they got to change it
and then they got to
do some more shit
and smoke and do
boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
But this just was it
and I had it that day.
So I was like,
nah, if we could,
I could shoot how many?
And they were like,
as many as motherfuckers
feel like shooting for you.
And everybody wanted
to shoot for me
because I was just smoking
the fucking camera dudes out.
I was just smoking motherfuckers out.
So it was like,
I had a zillion videos and shit.
Did that help your independence mindset
at that point?
For sure, because I was like,
if I could do that,
you know what I'm saying,
then fuck, I don't need that shit.
You don't need these big budgets
and all this crazy shit.
Yeah, because that's when I learned
like a video shoot could be 15 minutes
as opposed to the whole day
because I'm going to run the verse
two or three times,
I'm going to lean on the car, you know what I'm gonna run the verse two or three times. I'm gonna lean on the car.
You know what I'm saying?
Shoot her butt cheeks and fucking, that's it, man.
I'm on my way to the house.
Send it to me in the morning.
And that's it.
And that's just HD.
Yeah.
And it's good.
Like, I know that I shifted the way videos are shot.
I know that I did that because I show I'm not I don't hide the game so
motherfuckers who was around me I'm sure like bam now we can get this boom boom
shoot this I watched it happen and the whole game like change that's that's
what happened that shit came from that what you're in control thing 2009-10
when they had that creative control she could and she gave a shoot now that
shit that fucking did that, that fixed everything.
Everybody like, because I broke, everybody threw the motherfucker.
Bro, Wizda, Krip, all kind of motherfuckers.
So everybody was picking that up.
Oh, I could just run and do this shit.
Bam, I need how much that camera cost.
Rob Markman And this coming from Dane's studio, right?
DJ Premier Yeah, DD-172.
Rob Markman So shout out to Dane for-
DJ Premier Big up to Dane.
DJ Premier Yeah, I would give him that anytime, for
sure.

His manager, Johnny Shipes, we was cool.
He fucked with Nip.
Big up cinematic.
He fucked with Nip.
And DZA and Devin the Dude had a song.
And Shipes was like, yo, I want to put you on this record with Smoke, DZA, and Devin.

I went on something
With
Rosenberg

a cool kind of thing
cause it was at the station

we went
we went to a stuffy ass
setting
and I was like
this is about to be
that bullshit
and then it was cool
and I was like

I didn't know
that kind of shit
could happen
and I never knew
what the fuck I was at
and then

did a drink chat and I was like a what you know what I'm saying like a podcast like all right dig
it that's why I hit you I had to hit him because I called him I was like look I want to do I want
to do one but I didn't know what the fuck that was until I sat down with y'all you know because
you think about it like this um currency we're on twitter all day for free. We're on, if you think about how long
you're on Twitter, this is probably how long
you're here. So just think about it.
Or Instagram. Or Instagram.
If you dedicate that same time
to you posting a picture or you
liking the picture or you
going on Twitter
and you put an hour and 20 minutes into
this and this is what your fans
really, their fans really want.
Because you'll get so much by typing.
You know what I told Ray Kwan?
I told Ray Kwan, I'll see you in five years.
Rappers will be dropping their albums on podcasts.
Because think about it.
Because think about it.
If you have an audience that's tuned in to you,
some of them just don't have the money to buy an album or hit a stream.
But if they can tune in to you and it could be free and they'll tune in every fucking week
All right, so just people just love you and just don't have the money. You know I'm sad
So this thing about as long as it's free and we charge people for ads
Why would you go to a record label?
Or even a even a distributor when you already got your distribution if you set it up correct.
You know what I'm saying?
So I was glad when you hit me
and you said that.
I was like, I hit E
and I was like,
yo, you know what?
Let's come out here
and you're a man of your word.
I want to big you up for that.
I said, yo, let's go this week.
You said, we'll do it this week.
And I want to big that motherfucker up.
God damn it.
I'm going crazy.
Motherfucker, you're a fan of your word.
You can't play.
Life too short.
You know what I'm saying?
That's the thing about podcasts, what I want to tell you, and it's great that I can tell
you live, is as long as, because you want to do it with Smoke Dizzle, right?
Y'all together?
Yeah, man, boy, yes.
Just as long as y'all just dedicate, because you don't have to see each other and do it
every week, but y'all got to get together and have, so you have material.
Because the one thing about it, I got to warn you, and I see here a and do it every week, but y'all got to get together and have, like, you know, so you have material. Because the one thing about it,
I got to warn you, and I see here a friend
do an interview, and he said
all podcasters encourage other people to do
podcasts, but the one thing about it, if
you build your audience and you
leave them, they will curse out
your whole family.
Listen to me. Yo,
listen to me. You can't stop.
Like, once you get that audience
You gotta pick a rhythm
Whether it be weekly or bi-weekly
Just pick a rhythm that you can do
And just do it
We both took a break
So we took a break
But we never took a break
We became a TV show
And so we took a break with the TV show
Schedule Our podcast audience was not fucking with that schedule So we became a TV show became a TV. So we took a break with the TV show
Schedule
They would be stalking us like I can't you know, like Jay came here one time and I think he just
landed on the thing
and one dude
took a flick of him
and then he sent it to me
and then I hit Jay
and he's like,
motherfucker,
I didn't even leave
the airport.
How the fuck
you know I'm here?
That's how crazy
these fucking fans are.
They're psychotic.
Like, to let us know
that he's here
for him to be a guest
on the show,
like, they let us know
he's in here.
Get on the show. Like, he know he's in here get on the show
he's risking his job
like this is a private airport
this dude is like this
and I'm like
so that's my biggest advice
is like
if you started
when you started
and you get your audience
you got to stick with them
because so many people
like
like again
they take breaks
just like how we did
and we
we actually
learned our lesson by that.
We was like, you know what?
Fuck it.
We're not going to stop.
So what we'll do is like this.
We're recording you now.
We'll bank episodes.
We'll bank episodes.
So this way he can go to, you know, coming home and fucking, you know, dog watch.
Dog watch.
I don't know.
I meant to say Vietnam.
That's what you thought it was?
Because of TV Johnny.
TV Johnny story.
So,
and then,
you know,
I can do whatever
and we'll still be.
But I think that's an awesome thing
because you and Smoke,
there's a
that's smoking
allegiance crowd.
Where y'all,
it's the black
Chi Chi Chong.
You know what I'm saying?
Who's Chi Chi Chong?
You know what I mean.
That's the Vietnamese
and TV Johnny people. The TV Johnny people. Chi Chi Chong. You know what I'm saying? Who's Che Che Chong? You know what I mean. That's the Vietnamese. That's the TV Chonies people.
The TV Chonies.
Che Che Chong.
Che Che Chong.
You know what I mean.
So, get ahead and eat because I'm going to put it in my notes.
I put it in my notes.
I got notes and shit.
So, when y'all started thinking about doing a podcast for real?
Like a month ago.
When that like the day, that day.
Y'all haven't, how much has he thought it through all together?
Well, how much does
a stoner
think it through?
Every night he smokes,
he's thinking something.
The next day,
not so much.
We're always in thought.
Always in thought.
But we're like
almost not.
You know what I'm saying?
But y'all serious about it.
But absolutely.
For sure, for sure.
I mean,
my jewelry would be fake if I couldn't do together like in person are you gonna do it like
Was it? Yeah. Well, no the plan was to do the shit together. Yeah
Y'all should get together because they got it. So because I guess I mean I took the page
What I see the way I see it, is me and the homies smoking, you know what I'm saying,
and being able to do shit.
Because the same way this unlocks a certain element in certain people, we do the same
thing to other motherfuckers.
God damn it.
Is it Tiger Bone time?
I feel like it's Tiger Bone time.
Do we have Tiger Bone?
You cannot lie.
Do we?
No.
Unless you know some secret Tiger Bone stuff. I ain't going to lie. I see some Casamigos over there. Oh, no, no, no. I'd rather Tiger Bone. You can't lie. Do we? No. Unless you know some secret Tiger Bone.
Nah, I ain't gonna find it.
I see some Casamigos over there.
Oh, no, no, no.
I'd rather drink that.
Como se llama?
Oh, I got Colombian white, bro.

That's the point.
That was the point.
That's the Colombian.
It sounded like someone narcos.
They're like, everybody's cool.
Like, nobody's tripping.
I'm the only one, like, looking at y'all and they're like, yeah.
We're going to have one shot at Colombian white. One shot. You and my guys got some big guns. All right, I'm in. one looking at you like, yeah. We're going to have one shot at Columbia.

All right, all right, I'm in.
Remember, we had Dream on here.
Dream was like, niggas ain't going to do no lines.
Yo, he said that shit straight.
Yo, he was dead serious, though.
He was like, Dream, stop.
He said, what, you niggas acting like you don't do lines?
What the fuck?
You're boring. I'm not mistaken Fucking okay. He probably did a few lines. It's on cocaine, out there. I personally seen Ja Rule take an ecstasy
and write some shit for TLC.
All right, there you have it.
I personally seen it.
And then I took an ecstasy and I couldn't write shit.
And I was mad as fuck.
I was like, damn, nigga, what kind of...

You got to put that shit on some ice, goddammit.
No, that doesn't need to be enough.
That shit.
That shit is in my head.
Wait, wait, wait.
You're going to compare it to fucking, we got Tiger Bowl.
Tiger Bowl is supposed to be hot and disgusting.
That can do better when you put it on ice.
It's not, it's not.
What is it?
Is it tequila?
The exact, it's the process before rum.
Right.
Before it becomes rum?
So there's no classification.
It's flammable.
That shit is for like scrapes and cuts, my nigga.
You supposed to put that shit on the braces, dog.
That's for when you hurt yourself.
That's for cuts, dog.
You see the president Jimmy Carter with the cut?
Building houses and shit.
That's what the fuck he was drinking.
Jimmy Carter was drinking that when they bust him open.
It's a fact.
Reserved, huh?
Yeah.
So tell us about this burger spot.

It was in City Park.
Once it was Bud's Brother.
Number one legendary
New Orleans Hamburger spot
When I

Like a historical building
So they didn't change
The structure and shit
It just was a burger spot
And it used to be
Something else beforehand
But they just put
The burger spot there The cars always Looked be something else beforehand, but they just put the burger spot there.
The cars always looked good right there.
You know what I'm saying?
And then it closed.
Closed.
Yeah, like one night,
we was just on the set chilling,
and they was like,
yeah, let's go roll over there.
And we went there,
and that motherfucker was closed.
No warning.

Rob Markman, you know what I'm saying?
Rob Markman, I got to connect the Chevy.
Rob Markman, I got you.
Rob Markman, I was going to get that.
I was going to get that and then I showed him that, that somebody tagged me and some
shit about the building.
I was like, if we could do that, I'm not really tripping off the car.
Rob Markman, I like Chevys, old schools.
But my partner, he know I need that other shit
for people to know what level I'm operating on in the game.
He understands that.
That's my manager.
So he know, you got to buy the roads.
You got to have that shit to let these niggas know.
So he was definitely about to go cash out on me.
About to do that.
I was like, nah, let's bust a move on this.
So motherfucker do that. And I was like, nah, let's bust a move on this. So, motherfucker did that,
you know,
and helped me to where
I didn't have to dig in
too much of my scratch,
you know what I'm saying?
So let me ask you,
did you keep the original
of,
like the original staff
or like the original recipe?
Everything had,
everything had,
something happened.
You know what I'm saying?
So,
the spot is golden,
regardless.
And I don't want to do,
I could have made it a Buzz Brawler.
They reached out.
It was Buzz Brawler before.
Okay, okay.
And they reached out, the people who own the name.
You know, it was like, yo, if you want to turn that into a Buzz Brawler, we could do that.
And I was like, nah, we're going to do our own shit.
So it's Life Burger.
Yeah.
You got Impossible Burgers on there?
We need to get the impossible burger
we've been discussing it
I saw Burger King was offering
that shit is alright
I'm not gonna lie
we're fucking with it
I haven't had any of that
cause I don't understand how that works
I ain't gonna lie
I'm a hater
if it come to
food I will critique this shot so you had the impassive I had it in our
birds is good it tastes like a what was it good it tastes like I mean that I
remember it tastes like a while it tastes like a wopper yeah and it was
good and it was alright so that doesn't scare you yes what. It does. So, so, so, what are
they doing? Are they extracting
flake? Are they putting
the needle in the cow? Soiling green.
Extracting the essence from
his fucking...
You ever had a Beyond Burger?
You ever had one of those?
And that's another one I'm starting to have.
That one looks like...
I don't understand.
You know that shit. Because that's science. I don't understand. And Soylent Green is like that. So why?
You know that shit was made of people.
Right.
That's Soylent Green.
That's Soylent Green.
Yeah.
Just fast forward that movie all the way to the end.
That's what I said.
Motherfucker right up to the screen.
It's like, Soylent Green just made of people.
That's what I think about every time I eat that shit.
It's people, bruh.
Oh, man.
So they might be telling you
What is that we call so many green I think so you've never seen that movie though It's a movie. We're like in the future humanity. Yeah, everything is
Made food for everybody right to keep humans good and like people that can't afford food. They just good they eat good
Everybody else
Everybody else
Recycled into food
I don't really fuck with that because
Let it fit. All right. It's a veggie burger. It's because of the imposter burger. I don't really fuck with that because alright,
it's a veggie burger. It should taste terrible. Right.
Yeah, you should be picking out a parsley
out your mouth. Because it's not a hamburger,
so it should taste terrible. No, I disagree
with you. Morningstar burgers
used to be the shit.
What's that? Morningstar is a brand.
It's a brand.
For some reason
It was like it was like happy in the hood and I didn't like why I
Only started
Like a hand it tastes like a hand yeah, yeah, yeah the original Morningstar the original ones that I had yesterday
Yeah, yeah, you ain't gonna take a bone Chris You got no tiger bone, Chris? Alright, the streets dry right now. Alright, cool.
My garage got one.
The streets dry, bro.

The streets dry.
It's totally green.
These people.
So then you linked up with Ski Beatz.
My man. I met him, well, shit, Dame.
Dame again. I met him over there
and fucking
was crazy.
At first,
Dame was like,
yo,
this is Ski.
You know?
And I'm like,
cool, you know,
he's playing beats.
Like, these beats hard.
You know?
Let's do it.
And then he,
he was like,
yo,
who you listen to?
And I was like, yeah, fucking Biggie, Camp Low.
I said Camp Low like second.
You know, the second thing, whatever I said.
Whatever I said first.
I might have said so and so. That's what you want, huh?
You beat each other up on the sky.
This is it, huh? So I said Camp Low. And he was so and so. That's what you want, huh? You're beating each other up in the sky. This is it, huh?
So I said Camp Lowe.
And he was like,
I did that whole album.
Wow.
And then he was like...
Wait, Ski did that whole album?
Wow, I didn't know that.
I didn't know that either.
I didn't know that either.
You're fucking me up.
You're fucking me up right now.
I didn't know that.
He didn't work with Sporty Thieves too?
Was that him too?
No.
I believe he did.
He might have did that. He told me something with Sporty Thieves too? Was that him too? No. I believe he did. He might have did that.
He told me something about them too.
Okay.
But dig it.
Fucking, he was like, yeah, I did.
I did this.
I did this.
You know, bam, bam, bam, bam.
He was like, but of all the shit, you know what I'm saying?
Like, that's with you?
He was like, all right.
And then he played me a different set of beats.
Nah, yeah, he's ill.
He's ill.
You feel me?
Dane was like,
this is my partner
from New Orleans.
Playing some beats.
Ski didn't know,
you know what I'm saying?
Ski didn't know
double XL,
top 10,
nothing.
He was just like,
whatever,
nigga from New Orleans.
He didn't play you
City Boy with it.
He was playing some beats.
He was playing some beats.
And then,
when I told him
what I was listening to,
he ran out, I fucked with Cam Bloom. And then he knew, you know what I'm playing some beats. And then when I told him what it was, he realized I fucked with Cam Bloom.
And then he knew, you know what I'm saying, what kind of air I had.
And then he played shit.
Smooth.
Yeah, he dropped some shit.
And then we got to talking.
And then we were talking about the shit, all the shit he did for Jay.
And I told him what my records was I fucked with from him.
And it was specifically the ones that he fucked with from Reasonable
Dog and shit like that.
Then I realized who I was around, and I didn't want to fuck with nobody else.
What makes you do whole projects with people, though?
Because I got to give you a shot to get all your shit off.
If I fuck with nine producers, this song might be my song about bitches.
You made me
that beat.
This song might be about the fucking homie
that fucking got smoked. So I got
my pain out of the way with you.
And you made a beat that called for that. So I got
a beat from you a day you was
going through something. But if I fuck with
one producer, then he could get all his
emotions out too. The whole time
I get mines out.
You know what I'm saying?
Like,
that motherfucker
making beats,
like,
the homie might've got
smoked too.
His partner got whacked
but he still gotta make beats.
You know what I'm saying?
But that's gonna reflect
in that.
It might be going
all good with this bitch
at this point.
These beats
are going to reflect that.
And then,
shit might be awesome
for me at that time.
So I picked that beat too.
Bam!
It's going to work.
You know what I'm saying?
So we go through
our whole thing like that.
What producer have you
not worked with
that you want to do
a whole project with?
Pierre Bourne?
Yeah, the young homie.
The young homie.
He tight as fuck.
Because the shit
that I fuck with
from Playboy Cardi
is the shit he did.
And that's why
I told Cardi before,
I'm like,
you know,
I know he could go.
He doing what he doing
because it work.
But he could actually,
I know he could go too.
You know what I'm saying?
I know he could go.
I wouldn't fuck with him
if he couldn't.
I know he could go
because he fuck with me.
Like when I saw people talk to him about who he listen I know he could go because he fuck with me like when I saw people
talk to him
about who he listened to
and he spoke on me
I was like well
you not listening to me
you know what I'm saying
and
and fucking around
so he doing what he do
to get his bag
but I know he could go too
you know what I'm saying
so
yeah
but Pierre Bond
he got shit
um
I might
I think that's it
because
I've been lucky enough
to fuck with
the people I fuck with.
I didn't listen to
all of what was presented to me.
Everything I fucked with, I always dug
for whatever I fucked with.
Who's your favorite producer?
Al.
Al?
Al?
Al?
Al?
Al?
Al?

Al?
Al?
Al?
Al?
Al?
Al?
Al?
Al? Al? Al? Al? Al? Al? Al? Al? Al? one of the other producers. Al is a fucking comic book scorer.
If comic books played music how children's books did when you turn the pages, that's
Alchemist.
Yeah.
For anything.
For sure.
And then when me and that dude jammed up, when we met, we did the whole fucking, we
did Covert Coup, like sitting there.
Yeah, come on.
The alchemist.
Yeah, he tight as shit.
Just standing there.
Yo, listen, I hung out with Alchemist for like a day.
Day and a half.
Never seen him eat.
Oh, we ate donuts and-
Donuts and coffee.
That's it.
Ginger juice.
Ginger lemonade.
That's all I seen him eat was coffee.
And we made my tape based on album covers. He's got all these vinyls, the whole thing.
Oh, in the studio.
And I'm just looking through, oh man, this is nuts. Look at him and this girl and then a wagon.
This is a good album cover. And he just fucking throw the shit on and pull something off of that.
We did the whole thing based on what I looked at on the cover. I'm like, yeah,
I don't know what this is. And then some of this shit was like Russian music and other shit.
But I'm like,
damn,
it's a bitch looking
in the mirror
in the castle.
It's a hard ass album cover.
Like,
give me something off of here.
He'll just fucking
pull something off
that bitch.
When was the first time
you were with him?
Damn.
Was it on the CNN?
And he,
he produced on the,
on the Reunion,
right?
Yeah.
Yeah. Was that the first time
yeah
yeah
he was rapping
around then
no
he used to be in a group
called the hooligans
I didn't know
Alchemist
I saw him
yeah he rapped
yeah I saw him
on TV one time
that boy was
I never knew
I would know
any of you
you know what I'm saying
so that's
that's funny as fuck to me you know what I'm saying? So that's funny as fuck to me.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, I watched everything.
I saw every fucking thing.
And then it's like, you know what I'm saying?
That's nuts.
Today, well, today, was it today?
Well, yesterday, because we spoke about Drake.
So Drake actually watched the interview and called Elliot Wilson.
It was like, yo, man,
how you going to tell people
that I flaked on you two times in the interview?
And you're telling it to Norrie.
Norrie said, last year,
you're supposed to save that story.
He said, but tell Norrie I want to do Drink Champs.
And I bring up that story to say
is I kind of respect
because
one thing for sure, two things for certain
and three things
for sure, sure, sure, sure
is when we said that, we were saying
that because we want people
for our culture
to, we understand
the Apple deals and sometimes you have to go
see certain people.
But when it comes to the culture, we should support each other.
That's why you got to do your own shit.
You know what I'm saying?
We should support each other.
And that's why, like I was saying in the interview, it sets a precedence when you see Jay-Z do 444 album and only do one interview. now I was doing Come On Drink Champs and
now it's time for the new generation.
It's time for the, you know what I'm saying,
even the Dr. Dre's and the
Eminem's. It's like, you know what?
This is something that's
foolproof. It's for us, by us.
That's why I was mindful about my response
when you asked who I was listening to.
Because a lot of these
little niggas
is knuckleheads.
But the ones I fuck with,
I done jammed up with,
smoked weed with,
talked to them,
and I know for sure,
like, all right.
You know, because I was once in a group,
a bunch,
I was young,
and motherfuckers thought we was
complete assholes.
You know what I'm saying?
And then it's like,
they're like, you know what,
you and the one from Pittsburgh, and with this guy, y'all might do something. What was the name of that group? You know what I'm saying? And then it's like, they're like, you know what, you and the one from Pittsburgh
and with this guy,
y'all might do something.
What was the name of that group?
You know what I'm saying?
No, I'm just saying,
not a group.
Just in that bunch.
I was in it.
I was a young trash bag
as far as rap was concerned.
And then Raekwon was like,
nah, this nigga's legit.
This nigga's legit.
This nigga's legit.
But I made sure to speak
on the people who I want
to come through
this motherfucker. Because
I know I put you on some names
and when you meet them
and you check out what I'm
talking about, you'll realize they're the
ones that's going to preserve this.
Because if it wasn't
for the motherfuckers being G's
when I was little,
then I wouldn't have wanted to do this.
Right now, the way this shit look, if it was me as a child,
I wouldn't want to do this because everybody looks stupid.
So it's like I wouldn't want to fuck with that shit.
It's not motherfuckers being real.
I don't really see nothing I can really fuck with.
It's a few.
It's a few.
And I come from an era where everything was like that.
So for us to preserve it and make sure that it shifts back to what made us do what we're doing,
we got to take the little ones, the young niggas that's focused and know, you know what I'm saying,
and put them down, you know what I'm saying?
Totally agree with you.
Yeah, support them.
The motherfuckers I spoke on I know
that's motherfuckers
who will hear that
I said it
and they
they gonna slide
like
it's not even
it's not no thing
you know what I'm saying
for sure
and they the ones
you gotta have in here
who's the next guy
from New Orleans
yo it's like
five
get out of here
because
alright first off
I got a label
you know
So my set for show
P is fucking
Feet is
Big a pleasure.
Big up Fiend.
Yeah.
He shitted on me when I first met him.
Get out of here.
Mind you.
I need to hear that.
I definitely reached out.
I'm like, dog, I'm trying to do my thing.
And Fiend was on No Limit, right?
Yeah.
For sure.
Okay.
All right.
I'm like, man, I'm trying to do my thing.
I want to do my own thing.
I want to do a record.
I can't sing you the beat.
And he was like, yeah, Carl Musa.
You know what I'm saying? And I was like, you the beat. And he was like, yeah, call Moosa. You know what I'm saying?
And I was like, you know, and artists, you know, artist to artist, you don't want somebody
to put somebody in between.
I'm talking to you.
I'm right next to you.
And you just told me, call dude.
You know what I'm saying?
So I was like, bet.
I'm never calling dude.
And I'm not worried about doing the record because I was physically right by you, dog. So like, what the fuck? You know what I'm saying calling a dude, and I'm not worried about doing the record, because I was physically right by you, dog.
So like, what the fuck?
You know what I'm saying?
Right, right.
And then the universe fucking lined up, and we smoked all kind of weed.
And once, soon as I got high, the first time I smoked a joint with him, I was like, check
it out, bro.
Like, do you even know?
You know what I'm saying?
He was like, bro, don't worry.
He's like, what you telling niggas now?
When niggas come around, I'm like, for sure. I get it? He was like, bro, don't worry. He's like, what you telling niggas now when niggas coming out?
I'm like,
for sure.
I get it.
I got it,
but I'm not.
How you didn't see
that I wasn't that?
Like,
you were supposed to see
through that.
Like,
nah,
this nigga's legit.
But he didn't see it.
And that's what I do now.
So many people call Moosa.
As soon as they come talking,
oh yeah,
this fucking,
bam,
you know,
hit my man, and he'll fucking bingo, bongo, I'll fucking put just fucking, bam, you know, get my man in here,
fucking bingo,
bongo,
I'll fucking put up with you tomorrow,
you know,
it's all good,
I see how that happens,
I just didn't want that shit,
you know what I'm saying,
but,
yeah,
so,
Fendi P,
T.Y.,
T.Y. is fucking B.G.'s son from the Highboys,
oh shit,
B.G.'s son?
Yeah,
that's my man's too,
oh wow,
okay,
he's doing his shit, Fendi's doing his,, that's my man. Oh, wow. Okay. He's doing his shit.
Fiend's doing his.
But outside of my camp.
And it's crazy because in my city, and it's crazy.
Once you do something, people start feeling like it's up to you if they make, if they get somewhere.
So I get back laughed sometimes because young niggas like, man, bro, dude don't want to fucking pull nobody on or get nobody in the light.
And I don't understand that because it's like, you just do what you're doing and you end up in the light.
I don't understand.
You know what I'm saying?
But this is my chance to speak on some people and then they work to speak for them.
It's not something that I could just push a button
and make it be on, you know what I'm saying?
But fucking Nino
Calvin, this guy
LG, that's my partner. He's
super tight.
No, no. This is just the city.
This is just the city.
Nino Calvin, LG,
this young dude named Wee Junkie.
I wish he would change his name.
I want to fucking, and look, bam, this is it.
Wait, Wee Junkie?
Yeah, and I thought about texting him because I just did a record for him the other day
because I was like, I want to make sure that this shit go because I feel like it's going to go.
But when I was sending him the email back, I was like, I'm sending this back
to weed junk.
Now I was like,
damn, we might need
to do something.
But you know,
I don't know, I'm old.
Old nigga, I'm in my 30s.
I don't know,
you know what I'm saying?
That's probably the shit.
Nah, you know.
You know what I'm saying?
But I think like,
we might need to just
sharpen it a bit,
you know what I'm saying?
And you know,
I took a risk because it's New Orleans. These little I'm saying? And, you know, I took a risk
because it's New Orleans.
These little niggas is nuts.
My man, I ain't even playing on you.
I'm telling you for sure
how we can fucking bust a move.
I think if we just sharpen that,
you know what I'm saying?
Or maybe he can, you know,
maybe if he keep pressing it,
it'll fucking go.
But who knows, you know?
Because a lot of people,
there's like the baby and baby
and stuff like that.
Yeah, it's working.
And if I wasn't like that,
yeah, for sure. And I think that and stuff like that. Yeah, it's working. And if I was a little baby and the baby. Yeah, for sure.
And I think that I thought maybe that wasn't going to happen.
I think that I thought that.
Like, just in kicking it, I was like, wait, that's not going to be able to work because
it's too many.
And I sat in the car today and I saw three songs come on with, you know, I was like,
oh, all right, for sure.
These niggas, there's the baby.
You know distinctly who that is. And there's's the baby. You know distinctly who that is.
And there's Lil Baby.
And you know distinctly who that is.
And that ain't nothing because it's Lil Everybody.
And them niggas was all like sewing together.
And I was like, fucking right.
I was in the car like, I'm just getting on, man.
Like, you can do that shit.
You know what I'm saying?
So I don't know, bro.
Me, personally, I just wish my little arm would change tonight.
Right.
Because this is somebody else named Junkie or something? No, I just don't like Junkie. that. Somebody else named him a junkie or something?
No, I just don't like junkies.
That's what I'm saying. You don't like the junkie on the record.
I don't like that moniker attached
to his weed.
That's my partner.
He loves weed.
Weed addict. I wouldn't like that weed
fiend. I've heard people
say weed fiend, but when I
heard weed fiend, I didn't smoke weed.
And that made me attribute it all to the D.A.R.E. program, and weed was drugs to me.
I'm like nine years old.
I've heard people say weed fiend.
The D.A.R.E. program?
Yeah.
And I'm like, weed fiend?
Oh, yeah.
I don't know.
I want to touch the weed.
I'm a weed fiend.
Like the right fiend.
Heroin fiend.
You know, I'm straight on that shit.
Now, one of the things about New Orleans, which was very distinctive to me when I used to go out there,
was I used to see the young people on heroin.
Like, heroin used to always be like an older drug to me.
Like, it used to be like, you got to be in your 40s.
Heroin is the, let's go get the nigga who shot my brother drug.
Let's go break in this nigga house drug. Because I want to do this shit and not really fucking feel it.
Wow.
Like, that's how it gets so crazy.
There's no problem with fucking bus fucking opening fucking at the Mother's Day fucking picnic because you see your app because you full of heroin.
Fuck it.
You're not even processing how many people you see hit the ground.
That's not who you was hitting at.
That nigga probably got out of there.
You still got to deal with that shit.
You know what I'm saying?
But it's not real to you because you full of that shit.
Like, I know that's what they jumped behind.
You know, as I got older, I realized that some motherfuckers who I really was like,
damn, this nigga like, he's like one of the hardest niggas.
Like, this nigga's a whole fucking killer.
You know what I'm saying?
But it's like, nah, you like, that wasn't coming out of you.
It was numb.
You didn't even realize what you was doing.
I thought you was a monster.
You know what I'm saying?
But you was jumping behind something and then running and doing that.
And you a monster in a different way, too, you know, to do that.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
But it wasn't really, you just wasn't, you different way to do that. Right. You know what I'm saying?
But it wasn't really, you just wasn't, you ain't really like that.
You're not Skeletor.
Not the fuck I thought you were.
Has it got better in New Orleans or still pretty much the same?
I used to go to New Orleans. Well, I mean, all the designer clubs.
I think I said it last episode.
One thing I noticed is it's a lot of Latinos that people don't never speak about in New Orleans.
Yeah, for sure.
But I think
it got bigger after
the hurricane. Bigger? Yeah.
Like it showed, you know, I saw, I didn't see
fucking
some kind
of chicken. We got some kind of thing.
A pollo loco?
Not that one. I don't know if it's
pollo loco. What's that about?
We got something. And I was like damn, we didn't have that. You know what I'm saying? I was like motherfuckers, I don't know if it's Pollo Loco. What's that by that for? We got something.
And I was like, damn, we ain't had that.
You know what I'm saying?
I was like, motherfuckers out here.
You hear me?
They came out this bitch like, them motherfuckers out here.
They don't want churches.
They don't want churches.
We want that motherfucker.
So they had to build that bitch.
You still got churches out there?
We got churches out here.
Oh, yeah, I did see churches. I ain't gonna lie. It was bulletproofed up. that bitch churches out there that's what the biscuit said Godfather 4
featuring um action action Bronson action Bronson That's my man Uh Godfather 3
Was a terrible movie
I didn't really understand
There is no
Godfather 4
Right
No
So that's what he's saying
So you make it up
For the terrible movie
Oh I didn't peep that
Oh okay
It's deep
And it's not even deep
Because like
Godfather 3
Was trash
I couldn't
I don't know
I don't want to say so
Because the fans
I can't be mad
Because Andy Garcia He cute But he's in the movies I got listen I never
liked the world people were acting their asses but what they were told to do
that's all you like no no no I mean I'm never really watched them now you gotta
watch Godfather 2 2 is the best I'll I think I watched the part, Fredo,
and you said, you traded
the family. I know that.
I have no idea.
I watched every other Mom's
movie. Nah, it's a good movie,
man. It's a good movie.
They slow.
They very slow. They slow.
They slow. That's why.
It's the same thing.
Shit used to happen every day, but it wasn't popping Very slow. They slow. They slow. That's why. It's the same thing. Right.
Shit wasn't happening.
Shit used to happen every day.
But it wasn't like popping.
It wasn't shootouts every day. Well, let's get to Godfather 4.
So Godfather 4, you call Axl Bronson.
I fucking, well, I did the verse.
It was like I was going to close it out.
And I don't listen to myself in my car or hanging out.
I listen to it twice after we left, and then that's it.
So the second time that they played it, I was like, it feels like it needs to still be playing.
And I was like, I don't want to say, I don't have another verse.
I pretty much said what I had to say.
The only motherfucker I really could hear has to talk about food.
Because it was Godfather 4. the only motherfucker I really could hear have to talk about food. Ooh.
Like, because it was Godfather 4.
So I'm thinking about the meeting of the five families,
food, and like,
Action Bronson is going to make a reference to Veal or some shit I don't know about,
you know what I'm saying?
So I fucking hear them like,
yeah, that's the perfect dude to fucking get on that shit.
Did you ever feel weird?
Because I know, like, Ray Kwan is your man.
Yeah.
You have Ray Kwan on your albums and vice versa, and the discrepancies
between Action and Ghost.
T.J. For sure.
I watched Ghost play Teddy Pendergrass, Be For Real.
Rob Markman, That was the hardest thing.
T.J. And you know I'm a low rider, so I listen to
oldies before I listen to anything.
So I was like, damn.
Rob Markman, And then Ghost kept moving his sweatpants
up.
T.J. Yeah, he picked that record, and I was just sitting in there, I was like, man. And then Ghost kept moving his sweatpants up. Yeah, he picked that record.
And I was just sitting in there.
I was like, man.
This is terrible.
I'm not going to reach out.
You know what I'm saying?
This will pan out.
You know what I'm saying?
And I believe it did.
I didn't.
I don't know.
It seems like it got smoothed out.
I believe it did.
I believe it did.
I mean, I could hear the difference.
I didn't hear Action Bronson and say, is this the new Ghostface tape? No, I think hear the difference. I didn't hear Action Bronson and say,
this is the new Ghostface tape.
No, I think the problem was...
I didn't say that.
There were similarities in there.
No, I think the problem was,
I think Ghost, you know,
didn't really mind at first
and didn't really care.
But I believe Action went on ESPN.
For sure.
All right.
Now, I will say I did see that
and I was like, I wouldn't have said that.
Yeah, he was wrong.
But I'm not actually surprised.
I'm not actually surprised, you know.
They said, what do you think?
He said, Ghost is not making raps like this no more.
Action, though, he my partner, you know.
But I for sure was like, whoa.
Action is my dude, too.
Yeah, Action is my dude, too.
But it wasn't on the level of where I could call action.
And later on, I figured out what he was trying to say.
But on that platform, that day, the way it was expressed.
They all took it the wrong way.
Everyone took it the wrong way.
Oh, I've got to call Ghostface right now.
They all fucking took it the wrong way, though.
And that's why I was like, see, I wouldn't have said that. They all fucking took it the wrong way, though. And that's why I was like,
see, I wouldn't have said that.
Because you give a motherfucker the opportunity
to do what you fucking did.
Because you know what it came across as?
It came across as,
you know, ghosts lost it.
I'm the better ghost.
I'm the better ghost.
That's what it came across as.
Yeah, yeah.
And the fans don't help.
The fans exacerbate the whole shit.
No, no, but the fact is this.
It was on ESPN. So this is not a hip-hop platform. You think the fans didn't help. The fans exacerbate the whole shit. No, but the fact is this. It was on ESPN.
So this is not a hip-hop platform.
No, but you think the fans didn't pick up off of that?
No, I'm just saying.
They were already talking shit.
No, what I'm saying is,
but the fans that picked up on it
is predominantly sports fans.
Right.
So sports is against each other.
So if you're a sports fan,
you're automatically in battle mode.
You know what I'm saying?
You don't think about...
You don't think about...
Lying in the sand.
Immediately.
Like when you're battling,
like LeBron is battling
and Kevin Durant,
they cool off side of the court,
but as soon as they start
going against each other,
it's fucking war.
And that's what I think happened.
I think that you had
a bunch of sports fans
that only could see
Knicks versus Nets
and Jets versus Giants
and Cowboys versus Patriots.
And when they seen that,
they just went off. They went off and when they see that they just they just
went off they went off and it was like yo he just goes I don't think he meant
that like you know I'm saying I actually call action and he's and he was like man
um like I meant it I knew how he missed I forget how he explained it for a
different errors I think that's we have it diffuse. Right now, this is a volatile bunch.
So that shit would never-
Rob Markman Before that happened, me as a DJ, I was like,
it'd be dope for both of them to be on a track.
For sure.
Rob Markman It wasn't about saying, oh, he sound like it.
They just lent to each other's styles, and that would be a dope-ass track.
Rob Markman Yep.
I just thought dude sound cool
it was just something
I was like
nah he rapping

starting to get

The American West with Dan Flores is the latest show from the Meat Eater Podcast Network,
hosted by me, writer and historian Dan Flores, and brought to you by Velvet Buck.
This podcast looks at a West available nowhere else.
Each episode, I'll be diving into some of the lesser-known histories of the West.
I'll then be joined in conversation by guests such as Western historian Dr. Randall Williams
and best-selling author and meat-eater founder Stephen Ranella.
I'll correct my kids now and then where they'll say when cave people were here
and I'll say it seems like the ice age people that were here didn't have a real affinity for caves.
So join me starting Tuesday, May 6th, where we'll delve into stories of the West
and come to understand how it helps inform the ways in which we experience the region today.

I know a lot of cops, and they get asked all the time,
have you ever had to shoot your gun?
Sometimes the answer is yes.
But there's a company dedicated to a future
where the answer will always be no.
Across the country, cops called this taser the revolution.
But not everyone was convinced it was that simple.
Cops believed everything that taser told them.

The baby went on The Breakfast Club,
and the baby said that he had his number one album and then his father died.
Rob Markman, the baby said that he never thought that he would go through that.
I got something to tell you baby, the baby.
I did that in 1998.
My pops died on July 3rd in 98.
Now nigga leave mad herb.
I went number one right before that.
My father used to think I never was rapping.
He thought I was lying to my mother.
So when he saw a super thug,
he finally came up to me and was like,
Papito, I'm sorry.
The nigga was like, yo, I'm sorry, but you was a bad kid.
Like, I didn't believe you. When you said you
rapping, I'm looking at you the whole time like,
go ahead, go ahead. Okay.
Okay, DK, you're rapping.
Okay. Okay.
It was horrible, man.

Oh, my phone. Okay, thank you.
But, um,
what the fuck
I was talking about
the baby
oh the baby
so when a baby said that
I was actually listening to it
I wasn't even actually
hearing it
and
when he said that
it should just stop
I had to stop
I was walking somewhere
or jogging
I don't even remember
but I had to stop
and when he said that
I was just like
oh shit
and you know
a lot of times
you think as OG's cause see a lot of times you think as OG's
cause see
a lot of times
I don't show love
or I don't
over
you know
reciprocate love
because
you know
sometimes they'll look at you
and be like
the old nigga
and I'm cool
I'm cool
in my own section
and so I stay
when I see things like that
where I relate to you
directly
like you know
I wanna reach out
like I wanna
I wanna go to his next show and be like yo homie the shit that you went through I relate to you directly. Like, you know, I want to reach out. Like, I want to go
to his next show
and be like,
yo, homie,
the shit that you went through,
you was not the first, bro.
And I'm not claiming
I'm the first.
But I'm saying,
I went through that.
And then he had my whole story.
He was like,
my father was my hero.
And that was my hero.
My father was my hero.
And I lost him
in the best year of my life.
The very best year of my life.
And when I heard him have the same exact story, I was just like, I was touched.
I was like, you know, and like Irv, because the Irv episode is going to come out and it's going to seem like we don't fuck with the young dudes.
But that's the reason why Irv is like, I need something to identify with them with.
So now a person like him, I
identify with him. I know how hard
it is to have a number one single, a number one
album, and have the number one
person gone from your
life. I can identify
with that. You understand?
This Bachelor Young thing is,
because it's every year now.
It's not like it was, you know what I'm saying?
Like, my shit lasted for like four years
as new young.
Now it's like 15 minutes.
But this batch
is more vocal about
the real life and what's
actually going on as opposed to just
I ate nine pills
and got the bitch on the roof.
You know what I'm saying?
Niggas is definitely...
Do you think that's what's going on.
Do you think that's
what's oversaturated right now?
Is because,
like,
I've never really heard you
rap about other things
other than weed.
Right.
But,
I remember one of my friends
said to me,
he said,
man,
them motherfuckers make me feel
like I gotta buy a paddock.
Right?
Right? So, when you listen to the music sometimesuckers make me feel like I got to buy a paddock. Right? Right?
So when you listen to the music sometimes, it make you feel like you supposed to be high
too.
Like you supposed to be on Ophiuchus too.
For sure.
You supposed to be on Xanax too.
Yeah.
And then-
That's what happened.
I mean, that's probably what happened to me.
I grew up to fucking Snoop and Drake.
Right. to me. I grew up to fucking Snoop and Drake. But I also was like
super, when I was younger,
like paying attention to what school
was saying and I was like, not
fucking with shit. I was like, this
sounds good. I'm not
fucking with that though. You know what I'm saying?
I was existing in both worlds.
You never did another drug?
Mushrooms.
Salvia once.
Wait, no.
Or five times.
Right, but...
But the fifth time...
Salvia's the fake weed?
Shut it down.
It's not fake weed.
No, it's not weed at all.
It's fucking, like, fucking peyote.
Yeah, what?
You go to the smoke shop and you ask for salvia and they're like...
Salvia? They're going to the bank and get it ask for salvia and they're like, salvia?
They're going to the bank
and get it,
you know what I'm saying?
It's legal some places.
Fuck.
I don't know what salvia is.
I'm like,
look up people on YouTube.
And look up the fake weed,
right?
No,
stop fake weeding it.
It's its own thing.
It's a fucking plant
and it's like fucking peyote.
It's dried up, fucking whatever
the fuck it is.
It will unlock everything
that's in your mind that was
impactful to you.
You will visit it
in five minutes and then you'll be right
back chilling.
Alright? Listen to me.
This shit fucking... I snapped
salvia in a the bum with weed.
Salvia 85X though.
See, I had done Salvia different times in LA.
What's that?
That's like the XO of Salvia?
Yeah, it's like the one.
The one.
Snapped that shit and fucking went through the walls where I was.
And you know me, so I definitely know I did not go through a wall.
Okay.
Alright.
So I snapped the salvia
and fucking
I went
my chest slid
through the wall.
Don't do that.
You're going to make
the story though
because I know
it didn't happen.
So I went through the wall.
When I went through the wall
I came on the other side
and it was Mario 64.
Okay.
Super Mario Brothers?
That's because the Nintendo 64 was super important to me and my grades were super bad and I couldn't have one.
And my mind, you know what I'm saying, it was really, really serious to me.
And that's what the salvo you do.
Go to shit like that in your mind.
So I went to fucking Mario 64.
I was not Mario.
I wasn't nothing there. I might have just been
the camera. And I realized I was
there. I passed the bomb to
the homie as soon as I snapped it.
I heard him when he started
tripping. He said, I'm tripping
face. It was my white partner. I'd never heard that
term before. He said, I'm tripping face.
I thought he said, wait
till it gets to his face.
I opened my eyes
and I saw my feet
and I knew,
I saw my real feet
in the apartment.
I saw my feet
and my feet started burning.
And I'm like,
oh, wait till it gets to my face?
My face is going to
fucking burn up.
All right?
All this shit
is fucking happening
within seconds, all right?
Fucking,
it don't get to my face because by the time it's about to get to my face,
I'm in the auditorium at my high school where we all got fucking suspended,
expelled, and all kinds of trouble for getting BJs in the auditorium.
All right?
So then I go to that, and I know the assistant principal's coming.
I go straight to that.
I know this is when we got in trouble.
I went from that to my mom's house
because I opened my eyes in the apartment.
I see all my homie's shoes.
I see his shoes, and that's how my shoes used to be lined up
in my mom's house. I'm so glad I'm telling you this.
So fucking, I saw the shoes.
I thought I was at my mom's house.
Then at that point, I thought I was on the floor,
and these motherfuckers was dropping some shit on me
that made me hallucinate.
So I looked at my partner, and I said,
what the fuck did you do to me?
And he said, you gave us this shit.
So when he said that to me,
it fucking sent me back into the fucking madness.
You played me number.
The shit sent me back into the fucking madness, all right?
So then I think I'm standing outside.
Then I finally realize I'm back in the apartment. The shit is
all fucking waving like this. My wife
is next to me, and he tell me
I look like George Washington.
He's full into
his. As I come out of mine, he's like,
get the fuck away from me, GW.
Like, what are you talking about?
This nigga telling me
I got, like, the silver rollers and all this shit.
He don't want to fucking talk.
Then when he came down, he was like, my fault.
Like, I was fucking tripping, you know what I'm saying?
And I don't want to throw my partner in the mix, dog.
My partner know.
Look, Slim was out there.
Wheels was in that bitch.
Wheels was in that bitch, too.
And that nigga said everything was backwards.
When he came back He was like look
I didn't have no crazy ass story
Like what y'all had
He said but everything
Y'all motherfuckers was saying
Like I heard y'all
But it all was fucking backwards
All of me was fucking backwards
And I'm just glad it's not like that
And then it was straight
And then we YouTubed
All of the motherfucking
Salvia trips ever
People go through windows.
People don't know where the fuck they at.
The whole time, though, I was sitting in a chair.
For that story, everything I told you happened to me,
they told me I was just sitting there like this.
I thought for sure I had to be running, moving.
I didn't do none of that shit.
The whole time, I just was like, oh, oh, oh, yeah.
So, bingo.
Then we got to get you to do ecstasy or something
nah
we could do some happy drugs
look at that
foul ass over there
they clap for that now I'm fucking with you
nah that's the only thing I ever did
I did ecstasy and I love Molly.
I can't lie to you.
No, I haven't done it in a long time,
but I'm not going to tell you
I'm not going to do it again.
I haven't done it in a long time,
but I'm going to tell you every now and then.
That's just a bunch of stuff in the thing.
Every now and then.
Ecstasy too is a bunch of shit.
Let me just tell you something.
Every now and then,
you got to take a little base.
A little base.
A little base.
A little base. For later. take a little. But that shit is South. Salvia, I'm never doing that.
Nah, you can get that.
You can get it out here for sure.
No, no, no.
85X is doing the work for you.
They got Flock out here.
These niggas out here.
Oh, I see that.
Oh, my God.
No, it's not like that.
I'm telling you.
I ain't fucking with none of that.
You know about DMT?
That's a beating, nigga.
DMT?
No, I know about 80.
Yeah, DMT.
What's the shit that make my life better?
DMT must be the safer side of it.
But this Salvia. No, DMT is the shit that make my life easier? But DMT's supposed to be the safer side of it. But this salvia...
No, DMT is the shit that make you die, right?
No.
What's that shit that Kanye said?
I'm going wild on the DMT.
The what?
I think it's released in your body when you die.
No, DMT's supposed to be the safer side of all that shit.
And when you're born.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, it's like some shit that's released in your body when you're born and when you die.
So motherfuckers do that shit.
And the one homegirl who was like the queen of DMT did salvia with me.
And she was like, it's like low-grade DMT.
And I was like, all right, cool.
So I've never done DMT.
But she always told me all the answers to everything was in the fucking DMT.
In life.
For sure.
Everybody's fucking nuts about it.
But they go and they get the answers, and then they keep going.
And then they become maniacs.
Which that shit they do in Cali.
Oh, I was about to say.
In Cali, it's a mountain that everyone go to.
They take mushrooms. Joshua Tree? Joshua Tree, say. In Cali, it's a mountain that everyone go to. They take mushrooms.
Joshua Tree?
Joshua Tree, yeah.
You been to Joshua Tree?
Nah, but I've taken mushrooms.
I've never.
Listen, I've never been
white enough to go to...
That gotta be some white shit, right?
There's no brothers
in Joshua Tree?
I don't know.
I've never seen...
I don't know.
I think the doors

The nigga that opened
the doors for you
with Joshua Tree
is blind.
No, I had a group.
Oh.
Bad. Like did some shit. The nigga that opened the doors for you with Joshua Tree's blind? No, I had to group the band.
I'm sorry, guys.
I think that's where they went and like did LSU.
No, I'm sure a lot of people came up with that.
You know what was entourage?
Yeah, yeah, I saw that.
Remember when Vince was trying to make a decision and they said, this is the best decision you can make.
We're going to go to Joshua Tree
and take mushrooms.
But I think it's based off of the doors going in.
Yeah, they did that because of the doors.
Okay, and the doors is not black niggas.
No.
Okay, let's keep it.
There's Jim Morrison in them.
I ain't going to lie.

But that don't sound like some other way.
You never been to Runyon Canyon?
No.
Oh, don't go. What is that? It's like some weather where you never know all elected
like the cool people go to work out a hike and I did there and three times in
a row I'm not cool and then they got they got a trust system oh well it's the
funniest shit in the world I ever seen so as you walking in it's a trust system. A what? This is the funniest shit in the world I've ever seen.
So as you're walking in, it's a trust system.
Trust?
Yeah, a trust system.
So you can get a free water, but you got to like...

I'm going to be honest with you.
But is he paying for his water drink?
He's making sure I pay for my water for sure.
I don't think he's smoking crack.
He could take all that water.
You know what the funny shit is?
Me and Sonny, the other day, we were walking through the pool.
And the lady said, hey, y'all don't start no trouble!
What the fuck? Like, do we have that face?

Yes.
A Dreamcast episode on shrooms.
I did shrooms with Scott Storch
one time.
I've never done,
but I'm down.
Scott Storch gave me
some shroom tea.
I like this.
And I'm going to be honest.
I was numb.
I didn't know what I was doing.
But I felt like
I was the coolest

I was like this.
But I knew I was the coolest.
Damn, you had shroom tea.
Shroom tea.
Yeah, I had that in Jamaica.
That's what it was.
With Scott Swords.

I ended up on stage with it.
I was in the studio session when you drank it with him.
Oh, okay.
I just looked.
I said, ah, I'm good.
I feel like I was down with the doors.
I jumped on stage in Jamaica with a jam band called
the Disco Biscuits when I drank.
That sounds like a cool-ass band though.
It's a show.
I don't lie.
That's a cool-ass band.
Let me see it for you right there.
Through the back of the table.
That sounds like the illest ecstasy ever.

But you want the mic money go get the mic. I was like, these dudes like not even going to stop me. He was like, you want the mic money?
Go get the mic.
I just fucking walked out there.
And fucking they gave me the mic.
And I was just rapping.
And it wasn't hot.
And I know I'm good.
And I was trying to remember like pilot talk bars while I was on the stage.
But I couldn't.
I was missing the mark.
I don't know what the fuck I was talking about.
But everybody at the resort was just like,
you know, just going up.
And Dave had all the footage.
He's like, let's upload this.
And then the next day when I saw it,
I was like, nah, dog.
Nobody could ever see that shit.
I was not fucking on point
with that shit happening.
The Disco Biscuits are big as fuck, too.
You type that shit in, that's a jam band, and they're big all over the fucking world.
They gave me the mic, they let me go.

And this is in Jamaica, so his accent is different.
Hey, man, you know, I'll be afraid of the gunshot. You know this is Jamaica so his accent is different.
You know I'll be afraid of the gunshot.
Okay hold on.
That was two times.
What did this nigga just say?
It's about to happen then.
And I didn't know that Superthug was the number one record in Jamaica at that time.
Oh you're talking about when the music comes out they gonna pop.
Yeah.
So he's telling me don't be afraid of that gunshot.
Yeah.
They gonna pop, yeah.

Like, I'm out.
These niggas busting at me.
Fuck that shit.
Nah.
That's an honor, man.

The crazy shit is this police to the right,
this police to the left, this police in the crowd.
There's no way what this man just told me

Is possible
The police is with it
But no
I think I see the police go

Hold on.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm going to take a piss.
All right, tell us about this Jamaica story again.
So he sent you weed over there in Jamaica?
For sure, for sure.
Look, the weed out there, I couldn't really.
I wasn't really fucking with it.
People was coming through, bringing weed.
They had motherfuckers underwater out in the beach
you look out and there's a motherfucker standing out in the water
you stand on the beach
you look out in the water
and you'll notice
there's some motherfucker standing there
with a snorkel out in the water
and I didn't go in the water
but I sent the homegirl
and as she approached him
he fucking went down
under the water. That's where the stash?
So, because they don't want
the resort to fuck with them.
And they know the resort is full of motherfuckers
who can't get weed.
And don't feel like fucking around
and running into motherfucking
don't be scared of the gunshot.
So you don't want them to look for the fucking weed.
But it's a good song.
They can't,
so they go underwater.
When you get under the water,
when you get close,
they go underwater
and fucking pull out
everything they got.
You know what I'm saying?
Under the water.
It's an underwater transaction.
Fucking right.
And sell you the fucking weed
under the water.
So the homegirl get the weed.
She come back to shore.
She's like,
I got the weed.
We get up there
and fucking roll the weed.
I'm like,
this is garbage. I'm like, I don't want this shit. She's like, I'm going to go back. They got more people out there. She's like, I got the weed. We get up there and fucking roll the weed. I'm like, this is garbage.
I'm like, I don't want this shit.
She's like, I'm going to go back.
They got more people out there.
I'm like, no.
We can't just fucking keep doing this.
I said, man, I'm going to hit this nigga.
I said, I'm going to just say something out loud.
So I tweeted.
I was like, man, I had different expectations about Jamaica, man.
You know what I'm saying?
I was like, I thought I was about to be out in this bitch as high as a kite.
You know, this isn't really what the fuck I thought.
You know what I'm saying?
And then the homies were like, nah, that's because you smoke weed in fucking America.
Like, it's different weed.
And the dude told me that.
He was like, you smoke science weed.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Science.
Yeah.
That's something crazy.
He said, you know, we use for fertilizer. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Science. Yeah. That's so in the Greek. This is y'all weed.
This is y'all weed.
You know we use for fertilizer?
I was like, what?
Rin.
I said, hmm?
Rin.
I was like, oh.
I was like, Rin?
I was like, oh, no.
This shit, like, this is when we cut down with the weed wagon.
Like, this is shit to get, you know what I'm saying?
This motherfucker was like, Rin is the fertilizer. I was like, oh, that's this is shit to get, you know what I'm saying? This motherfucker was like,
raining the furnace.
I was like, no, that's why this shit spoken like that.
So I'm crying on Twitter,
and then Nora was like,
yo, check it out.
I could send something, you know, like,
where are you?
You know what I'm saying?
If you close enough, I could make it happen.
And the motherfucker pulled up on a scooter
with a garbage bag full of weed.
Look,
pausing on both sides of this story.
This is why. Like I said, that leads to my story. Super Thug was number one in Jamaica.
I didn't know why.
So yeah, so when you saw, when he sent the hit, it was like the motherfucking dog said,
bring this man some weed. So Jamaica couldn't wait to fucking bring weed.
Because Super Thug said, bring weed to his party.
So, a motherfucker brought me a garbage bag full of that shit.
And it was the weed I wanted.
And I'm a big up Dudas.
That's the guy who the big man.
And I'm a big up Rooster.
Rooster, those are the two big mans over there.
I used to go there almost every week.
You went to Kingston, right? That's the only place I would go. That's the two big mans over there. I used to go there almost every week. You went to Kingston,
right?
That's the only place
I would go.
That's the only place
that had the high grade.
That's why I knew
when he said he ain't
had no good.
I said,
but I don't want to
send you to there.
I'll send them to you.
You know what I'm saying?
Because that's a bad place.
Timberley Gardens
is a bad place
in Kingston.
I was out there
with fucking Daniel.
So they was exploring. Yeah. And going. You know, Billy Gardens is a bad place to kick stuff. I was out there with fucking Damien, so they was exploring and going. Damien nigga, but he got a crew of nine niggas that's down to just check shit out.
Just like in the scary movies.
Rob Markman, Right.
So these motherfuckers was just going, you know what I'm saying?
Everywhere.
And I was like, nah. You know, we shot a video.
And me and Styler shot a video.
And I saw a lot of shit.
I'm sorry to bounce around.
How did you develop your relationship with Styles?
Styles P?

I heard.
Yo, you buy the real stuff in New Orleans on Canal Street, but the fake stuff in New
York on Canal Street.
Oh, yeah.
You can get anything fake in Canal Street.
Yeah, I know.
That's fucking crazy.
So, look.
Check it out.
I got the window up, and I'm smoking a joint, playing video games, and I hear an argument
outside.
Somebody's pissed with some weed that they bought, and the dude's from New York.
I just hear it.
He's like, yo, who the fuck?
Who, who, who, who?
And then you're like, man, so I hear the new one.
I'm like, yeah, well, I am, son, you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
So the dude just fucking rolls out, and the New York dude is still mad as fuck.
I fucking look outside, and it's Stiles P.
Right.
Fucking outside, like, man, this is fucking
booth. I'm not smoking this.
He's fucking mad. I'm like, yo,

I had to talk to his manager.
He didn't tell me who to call.
He was like, nah, let's do that shit, baby, bro.

Shit, shit.
I got him on my remix album.
I'm about to drop a remix album.

This is bittersweet, you know what I mean?
Because this is our first time that we recorded a podcast since our dear friend passed away,
you know what I'm saying?
Twin.
We love you.
We all came out to the funeral to view it,
and it's heavy on our hearts,
but we wanted to know that, you know,
that every time we recorded a podcast,
he was a part of the podcast. He was here, and he always wanted to, you know,
just add on to the crew, and we wanted, you know,
his family to know and everybody from Dream Chance family
to know that we're there and the legacy continues, from everybody from Luda, Big Red, to Ellen, to twins' moms, his parents,
and the pops and the brothers and everybody, we love you guys and we got you guys back,
man.
You know what I'm saying?
From everyone from Dream Champs, we stepped up and we did something and we want you to know that it didn't just come from me and EFN.
It came from everyone in Drink Champs because Twin touched everyone in Drink Champs.
And we will always represent for Twin.
God damn it.
Make some noise.
I saw you.
I saw you.
But that's real shit.
He was a huge fan of you. You know what I'm saying? I saw you. He saw you all doing it. Rob Markman, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz,
2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz,
2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz, 2 Chainz,

So that's my whole point.
Like you,
you,
my partner,
you didn't die.
Like Mac Miller,
not dead.
Nip not dead.
Cause that was my partner. You think that comes from new owners?
Because like a lot of y'all are spiritual.
That's how I born.
I born that to help me deal with how I came up.
Like,
you know,
all my partners,
like I got like five of them,
and then like new partners.
But everybody who was with me
before this shit started making,
connecting the dots,
like they all gone.
But then I did,
because I'm talking about them right now.
You know what I'm saying?
So that's the whole point of me.
Right.
You know?
Yeah, so I was watching you deal with that,
and I wanted to reach out to you. but I didn't want to come off as a weirdo trying to staple.
You know, people take something you're going through as an opportunity to communicate with you.
I don't know why you like that.
For sure, for sure.
But I was like, nah, I'm going to let him handle that, you know what I'm saying?
Because that's what I wanted to say to you. At the end of the day, we here.
So nobody actually really check out because we always going to bring it up.
We always going to talk about it.
Just what you did.
You know what I'm saying?
And then the crazy thing is, like all the friends or people, you know, I'm 42 years old.
You know, I don't have no industry age.
Bro, you are.
This is my real age. Like I don't have no industry age. Bro, you are. This is my real age.
I don't have no age.
Listen.
And out of 42 years,
the only person that I actually know
where to have it is Twit.
I kid you not.
Damn, that's a good feeling, bro.
Listen, so look.
Nah.
So look.
Could you know somebody?
Let me tell you the example.
So we're downstairs.
Bro, EFN is on the other side of LA.
We happen to be in LA at the same time.
EFN is on the other side of LA.
I'm on one side of LA.
We meet up together
to have a drink on Twins' behalf.
It's like an hour after knowing that
he passed away.
So, I see this black guy.
I've known this guy for 15 years.
So, I give the black guy
the universal head nod.
You know, that's the universal black shit.
Everybody black got to give you a head nod back.
If the if.
That is universal.
You don't get that back.
Homeless ain't give me that back.
So I'm looking at him.
I got to ask about that.
I said, I must have threw up on this guy's shoes.
Like, I must have did something to this guy.
He didn't give me the head nod back.
And then he walked by me again
and I did it like this.
So he must have went and made a phone call
and he came back and he walks up to me
and he goes,
yo, I want you to know that
I know you think you know me.
So I go,
because I'm looking like I know you 15 years.
He goes,
but you don't.
You know my brother.
I'm a twin. This shit hit me like, I know you 15 years. He goes, but you don't. You know my brother. I'm a twin.
This shit hit me like,
like out of all the people in the world,
I could see and misconstrued.
I misconstrued another twin.
At that moment.
At that moment.
And I was just like,
I said, yo, tell him to come back out.
And I said,
so you was a blessing from God.
You let me know that my man.
That's God.
Yeah, that's God.
You let me know that my man. Because the world's Yeah, that's God. You let me know that my man.
Because the world's so fucked up, you will question your faith at this point.
Well, yeah, it's true.
It's true.
Because he was my angel.
That happens.
That happens and let you know like, yeah, shit is trash and you think that it can't be.
You think I'm not even up here.
But don't trip.
You know what I'm saying?
Let's make some noise for that.
Goddamn.
Goddamn.
Goddamn. Goddamn. And you know, pretty much one of the last questions,
is that how you guys were raised in New Orleans?
Because it seems like y'all celebrate death.
Like when someone dies in New Orleans,
y'all motherfuckers came for him more than y'all did
on his birthday
cause it's a struggle
right
on the ground
you ain't gotta
fuck with that no more
and death is paradise
that's real
you know what I'm saying
that's real
we ain't gotta
fuck with it no more
so it's good
you know what I'm saying
that's real
that's for sure
well Kerency
let me just tell you
something like this man
I want to thank you
for being a man of your word.
We hit each other.
We was in contact.
As soon as you said the podcast, I said, I got you.
I want to do it.
We'll have lunch tomorrow in case you leave out.
Smoke champs.
Yes, sir.
Yeah, smoke champs, sir.

I'm talking about sneakers
but I want to let you know
we definitely want to
get down
and help you guys
not only distribute it
but produce it
so you got some
great quality
that goes with it
we've learned this
from the past
three to four years
I don't know

three years now
four years now
and we've learned
how to really produce
ourself
like if you notice
There's all look at this all brother. I know this
So we You serious? We can package this? Let me tell you.
I came here to do this shit
and I'm like, man,

People look at that.
I had no fucking clue.
Because you know why?
You know why?
I'm going to tell you.
And then I saw a gang of them after that because I wanted to see how people handled it.
But let me tell you something.
You know why it works?
It's because the most interesting thing about Superman is Clark Kent.
It's not Superman.
It's that Clark Kent is a regular dude.
So the thing about it is we're so old.
Rob Markman Yes, man. I see it all the way.
Rob Markman We're all supermans, but when we sit down
and we kick it, we all become Clark Kitts because we all-
Rob Markman Because now the rap voice, there's no beats.

You need to relax. That's like a dessert I've been eating
after the main course
You might want to infuse some
You might want a watermelon come up that's the story green
Yo, this is drink chance the classic episode currency man, thank you for pulling it up yeah I'm glad man I'm glad man thank you man
y'all shit has
fucking like went nuts
I didn't know
what the fuck
I was doing
the first time
the fucking
drinking lean
on the fucking
bus story
went fucking
that shit went crazy
like Matt called me
and was like
see you might have
to talk
you might need
to call one
I don't know
that shit might be exciting
I was like man y'all doing me
I'm just keeping it
that shit happens
what the fuck
big up my brother Mac Bain
big up Wayne
big up all of y'all from New Orleans
because you know one thing for sure
that was the city that understood us.
When we got up there and we was as hood
as we was,
every time I got to New Orleans, they was like,
nigga, that ain't nothing.
I'm thinking, you know, I'm being too hood.
I ain't gonna
lie to you. I told you, I said this in our first
episode. One time, I sent a dude
from the W Hotel, and I was like, I need Phillies.
He was like, you sure?
I was like, yeah, because the only thing
that was around was the Caliola.
We had to go.
We had to go.
He's like, God damn it.
You really need them bitches.
He went, though.
Yeah, he went.
He went.
He went.
But I just want to thank you, man,
one for being a man of your word,
one for being always a stand-up dude.
I know, but it's your day today.
You know, always being a stand-up dude,
always being a person
who cares about other people's time
because that's a thing that happens.
Sometimes we become successful
and we only think about us.
The more that we become successful
and the more that we think about other people,
the more the blessings come back to us.
And I started to realize that.
You know what I'm saying?
I started to realize that no matter
if I'm more important than a person or not,
I still shouldn't waste their time.
I still shouldn't have them waiting around
or sitting around lingering,
whether it's the maintenance man, the janitor,
or the motherfucking president of the United States,
or maybe even motherfucking the president of the fucking BMI.
Like, you don't just
keep people waiting
so people start to,
you know,
to respect you more
and I started to learn
that through business
and I just appreciated
how me and you
just kicked it
and I said,
you know what?
Best thing to do is
if you want to do a podcast,
I would love to help
reduce it and help,
but the best thing is
let's promote that
on Drink Chance real quick.
That's the platform.
Listen, you stepped up. And you gasped.
And you stepped up.
Let me give it to you.
Let me pick you up.
And you said,
what?
I'm going to do it this week.
And I hit the team
to make sure everyone was around
or all the filmers
was around
because I like to call them shooters.
All the filmers
was around
and we made this happen.
And I like to thank you.
I like to thank because we're so used to this game, to hearing bullshit.
You get jaded.
You get jaded when someone keeps it so much real.
Please let me say this.
Yes.
I've been watching Drink Champs since I did it.
Okay?
Right.
And there's the ones where it's, you know, that one for the TV.
And I watched these two, and I'm like, man.
And I knew I was coming through.
And I was like, man, nobody's going to be hanging out at mine because I'm just like
me.
And I'm just kicking it.
You know what I'm saying?
Because I'm like, Paul.
I'm like, it's fucking Paul.
Right.
