I got to see them play live in base. I got to see them play live in Southside. I got to see them play live in, I forget the name of the Catholic school.
Starting point is 00:03:21 I got to see them go from, I got to see them dominate reality TV. I got to see him dominate. I got to see him win two champion motherfucking ships. Back to back. Put Queens on the motherfucking back. We was the fucking livers, bro, at that time. In case you don't know the fuck I'm talking about, we're talking about
Starting point is 00:03:38 none other than motherfucking Lamar Odom. Make some noise. Now, for lack of a better thing, well, not for lack of a better thing, but we just got to see Kobe's funeral. And we got to see them focus on you. And at first it felt sad,
Starting point is 00:04:03 and then it felt like a celebration. You being there, I wasn't there. I watched it on television. So you being there, what's your analysis? Nah, that shit was sad. I think him having the funeral. At the Staples Center? Yeah, at the Staples Center and seeing all the lives that he touched. Right.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Kind of made it real. Right. Because I was still waiting for them to be like, nah, Kobe just wanted to get away with his daughter. Right. You know what I'm saying? Mm-hmm. That shit was so shocking.
Starting point is 00:04:41 Right. That shit took the breath out of me, man. Mm-hmm. That shit fucked the breath out of me, man. That shit fucked me up for real. Well, we're going to take an eight-second rest in peace for Kobe real quick. Y'all, everyone be quiet, please, real quick. Rest in peace, Kobe, man. Make some noise. Let's get to the happier times. You know noise. Let's get to the happier times.
Starting point is 00:05:07 You know what? Not even get to the happier times. Let's take it from the beginning. You coming from Queens, having, you know, I got my man Raheem, my man Child Johnson here with me. And he told me at one point, like, you just was, he was taller than you, and you just kept growing and growing and growing and growing. How was that?
Starting point is 00:05:25 I think, I mean, that was just God's way to, like, make me, like, 6'10". Right. And kept me with a handle. Right, right, because he was God, right? Yeah, you know what I'm saying? A lot of dudes go through a growth spurt and they change their position and change the way they play. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:05:46 I always was slick with the basketball. Right. Always kind of like my game after a 6'10", Kenny Anderson. Wow. Especially when I was younger. Wow, wow, wow. Big up Kenny Anderson, too, by the way. Goddamn.
Starting point is 00:05:59 But let me, let me, because when you first got to the league, you went to the Clippers. Mm-hmm. Now, the Clippers is actually seeming like a contender. Do you think the Clippers was ever going to be a contender like how they are now? No, I mean, they got a good break when they was able to get Kawhi and Paul George at the same time. And I think they got good vibes and good karma because they got good different ownership now.
Starting point is 00:06:28 And so, as the players... Because you was on the Donald Sterling, you was there? Yeah. Oh, shit. Yeah. He's a racist-ass nigga? Yeah, right here. He was known not to pay players and shit.
Starting point is 00:06:45 Wow. It was tough. The first year I was on the Clippers, we lost like 20 games in a row. By 20. By 20, wow. So we averaged getting blown out. Wow, wow. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:06:59 And Donald Sterling wasn't paying. Nah. I remember we was on the bus one day before the trade deadline. And like, our other two best players, they would not get off the bus because they wanted to get traded.
Starting point is 00:07:18 Wow. We was at the Garden. I'll never forget that shit. Now, how was it because you, like, Ron Ron and, like, Raheem, like, you know, y'all all kind of came up. Then you later on in life got a chance to be on a team with Ron Ron. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:33 And with Kobe as well. How was that growing up with a childhood friend? Yeah, I mean, it's crazy because when we won a championship, I remember that summer I called Ron. Because Ron got one with you, right? Yeah. Okay. He was a free agent.
Starting point is 00:07:46 I was like, yo, man, you might as well come over here and get on this bandwagon. I know we was going to lose Trevor. And I knew Ron would be perfect. Because you kind of got traded for Shaq, right? Yeah, I was out here in Miami. And I got traded for Shaq and Caron Butler. Wow. And Brian Grant. Wow.
Starting point is 00:08:06 It's crazy how things work out. Wow, wow. And you won a goddamn ship. Goddamn. I'm a goddamn... Hold on. I ain't gonna lie. We're gonna turn up right now.
Starting point is 00:08:15 Come on. Let me go to the bottom of Ace. You drink some champagne too, right? Goddamn. Goddamn. So how was it? Champagne. I love champagne.
Starting point is 00:08:22 Come on. I'm a champagne nigga. You're from Queens. You gotta love champagne. Listen. So how was it? Champagne. I love champagne. Come on. I'm a champagne nigga. You're from Queens. You got to love champagne. So how was it? Because coming from Queens, right? You come from, I'm 42.
Starting point is 00:08:34 I think I'm a year older than you. Or two years older than you. All right. So coming from Queens, coming from that, how was the difference from going to that Hollywood lifestyle? You know what I'm saying? Because where, where? Well, I mean, because, you know, even though, you know, Hollywood lifestyle is different. But being that we're from New York, we're from the street.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Right. Right. We built for anything. Right. You know what I'm saying? Until we let shit get in our way. Right. So did you like it?
Starting point is 00:09:07 Like when you, was it something that- Hell yeah, man. Because like 2 o'clock, the club's closed out there. Yeah, 2 o'clock is over. I mean, what's not to like about LA? Right. I was 19. Knocking everything down. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:09:31 Shit, it's 75 to 80 degrees every day. And they saying right now that they're not testing in the, what? The... In the NBA for weed? No, no, what's the shit? Major League, uh. In the NBA? No, no. What's the shit? Major League Baseball. Yeah, they're not testing for that.
Starting point is 00:09:49 You think they should do that with the NBA? Because everybody burning on you. No, they probably going to do it. You're going to do that, right? You think you can still get an ABA right now? You think you can still bust a nigga's ass? Who, me? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:10:17 Um... Since I survived that assassination attempt. You feel me? Right. But I felt like I lost some of my natural ability, like my ball handling. Right. But I mean, I think if I worked out enough and got in shape, I feel like I can catch a record.
Starting point is 00:10:40 I think you can, because there's a lot of burgers in the league. I mean, to come off the bench, I'm not asking to start, play a lot of minutes. Was you surprised that Melo did so good after taking off? Nah, hell no. Because he got it. He got it. All right.

Starting point is 00:11:37 He was a crazy L-super agent, too. Now, there's a rumor that Kobe Bryant, a Master P, was about to have a fight. A physical altercation. A physical fight. And Master P said the only person that could stop it was Lamar Oval. What the hell happened, bro? This story has never been told before.

Starting point is 00:21:24 You know what I'm saying? I'm bouncing around a little bit because you said music, and I remember me hearing that you got advice from Jay-Z, right, that said not to pursue a music. But I need to go in depth with that. Was the artist you was investing in, was that Ali Vegas? Facts. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:42 Okay, now, let's get into depth with that. Yeah. Ali Vegas has an interview with one of good buddy of mine's, good friend of mine's, great interviewer named Forbes DVD, Doggy Diamonds. And he doesn't say you, but he says in this
Starting point is 00:21:59 interview, he says that he was approached to be a part of Illuminati. Ali Vegas said this? Ali Vegas. Something like this. I'm paraphrasing. I'm paraphrasing.

Starting point is 00:22:52 Because everyone thought he was just as, he's a dick, just as lyricist as, yeah, so, and I think that,
Starting point is 00:22:59 because, he's ill. Yeah, he's ill. He's ill. Yeah. I'm just not, he's just not ill. Like, he's different.
Starting point is 00:23:11 Like, I thought that he could have, like, like, Nas and Jay, like, if you just heard him rap. He definitely reminded me of young Nas. He was ill from mad young. Yeah He definitely reminded me of Young Nas. He was from Mad Young. He reminded me of Young Nas. He's ill.
Starting point is 00:23:29 I just wanted to see him get on. He from around the block. I mean, I had the bread at the time. So I was just like, fuck it. I love music, you know what I'm saying?

Starting point is 01:49:48 Not yet. But it's like, so I could, what I'm trying to just think about, like, somehow some people's life go different. Lamar going Christmas shopping with Bruce Jenner. This shit is different. But you got some people like, life just go, at the fork, they just go. I be seeing them niggas. I'll be seeing when they do that.
Starting point is 01:50:10 And that shit blow most people away. Let's take another shot. To the dude that's going... What about if he expecting it, though? You was expecting... I wasn't expecting it. I was. So what about if Urkel was expecting it?

Starting point is 01:50:52 A success. Yeah. It's very true. So you're saying you didn't expect it. But if it goes left and if it goes right, you're going to know it's going to throw some people like, you're not going to be with it. This is genius.
Starting point is 01:51:04 Because some people in my family wasn're not going to be with it. This is genius. Because some people in my family wasn't even really with it. With the Kardashians? Yeah, man, it's the same, B. I seen the documentary, like the same shit, that they ain't want you to be with them. You got real black family.
Starting point is 01:51:17 You're not fake black. There's people that's fake black. You're not, you're black black. And they didn't really like. They didn't know. So they were ignorant. Well, you were supposed to tell them
Starting point is 01:51:30 let's just emerge? I don't, I don't understand. I definitely don't understand what the fuck you're talking about. No, because you, I don't know,
Starting point is 01:51:38 you gotta realize, his family really, really. You said emerge? What do you mean? Like emerge, like merge together. But who's merging?

Oh, the families. Yeah, the families. The Kardashians and them. Yeah. But, you know, it's kind of a different thing. It's a different thing. And so what,
Starting point is 01:51:55 the families never got together? You don't regret that. You went through that part of your life like a soldier. You don't regret that. Get my family in. No,'t regret that. Put my family in. No, no, no, not your family. Like being a blardashian.
Starting point is 01:52:11 A what? Yeah, a black Kardashian. Nah. Nah, right? That shit was hard. But it's like, it depends on how you're saying it. Like, I don't know if you're saying that like
Starting point is 01:52:29 being sarcastic. No, I'm saying that like... Going at me or like... No, I'm saying that... Showing at me or like... No, because like we established earlier. No, we established earlier like you're one of the first people.
Starting point is 01:52:42 Because the thing about it, the rumor is this. I have nothing to do with this rumor, but the rumor is when a black man goes into that family, they stay lost into that family. So, in retrospect to that rumor, you're the first person that actually
Starting point is 01:52:55 escaped if that's the rumor is correct, right? You're the first person that actually escaped. And they're saying that you have your head on your shoulders now. And then you know why they're saying you have your head on your shoulders now. And you know why they're saying you have your head on your shoulders now? Because you have a black woman by you. I'm just saying
Starting point is 01:53:12 I got to take a piss so bad, but I can't leave because no, no, no. This situation is very cool. And the black sisters around the world are looking at me right now. If I go to the bathroom, it would be the terribleest thing in the world. I have to say that. They're saying that now,
Starting point is 01:53:28 look, Nori, on Twitter, when I say, yo, every time I interview somebody, hold on, let me just finish. Every time I interview somebody, I say, I'm interviewing Fabulous, or I'm interviewing such and such, and I said I'm interviewing Lamar Odom, right? You know what they said? Every, okay,

Starting point is 01:54:54 follow in your life. They will kick you in your dick over a tweet. Over a tweet. They don't even have to be in your face. I'm being honest. No, just be honest.
Starting point is 01:55:02 They will make sure you correct your blackness. Now, the only thing, I can respect that, and the only reason why I can say I respect that, because I can respect that, is from ignorably fucking with a black woman right now. That's right. Goddamn it.
Starting point is 01:55:17 That's what they said. The rumor on the street is... Lamar is back straight because he's back with a black woman. The rumor on the street is, Lamar is back straight because he's back with a black woman. The rumor on the street. But I could just see the difference in women in the airport. I got to take a piss. I've been holding this the whole time. But keep going.
