That's 1998.
That's my first question off the top.
Just to throw that out there. But
when you talk about countless,
I feel like this is like
the first hood nigga that had two number
ones in the first year.
Like Britney Spears didn't even do shit
like that. This man
has brung people to
this game, had made executives,
had made record labels. Because of this game, had made executives, had made record labels.
Because of this man,
record labels have survived.
Record labels have thrived.
This guy right here
is what you call a legend's legend.
There's nobody in hip-hop
I could ever think of
that don't have love
for this guy that I'm talking about right here.
He's a humble guy. He's a humble guy.
He's a real guy.
And he's a man of his word.
And his accolades is to the roof.
But we're going to talk about that in a show.
In case you motherfuckers is living under the rock and you don't know who the hell I am talking about.
We are talking about my friend, D.M.

You from the side was like, oh, yo, 1998 is my best year.
You from the side was like,
oh yeah,

than me that year.

and um I was in Philly I rocked the show and did the prayer at the end.
That's your first time doing a prayer?
No.
Okay.
That's my first time, I think, like, getting as emotional as I did.
Okay.
I mean, and to hear the support of the fans when you're at that point, thank you.
I mean, it's like, wow.
I mean, because, you know, break it down, because we always be, because shooting is a sign of weakness.
You know what I'm saying?
Or you're soft or something.
You know what I'm saying?
But for people to take it in its proper context, you know what I'm saying?
I was like, wow, that's power.
That's power.
You know what I'm saying?
When, you know, another choice, South Carolina.

Pluses, you remind people of what you've done throughout your career.
Yeah, a lot. plus is you remind people of what you've done throughout your career negative if there has to be one would probably be the fact that there has to
be a winner right right so there's a winner there's definitely a loser do you

always trust everyone
to be themselves,
but trust in the fact
that you can see them well.
You know what I mean?
So it's like,
you know,
trust, trust, trust.
It takes too much energy
to not trust someone.
You know what I mean?
It takes too much energy.
You only got to stay
two steps ahead of them
or whatever.
Trust them to be them.
Right.
To be themselves.
Trust a snake to bite you.
Right.
Trust a lion to laugh at you. Trust a thief to steal from you. Trust them to be them. It's too easy too. But know them when you see them. Right. To beat themselves. Trust a snake to bite you. Right. Trust a lion to laugh at you.
Trust a thief to steal from you.

Nigga tried to sell us a watch.
And then Chinese niggas, you know,
I did the robbery nigga shit.
Yo, who's letting my brother watch?
Punched him in the face.
Knocked him out.
But then we run back in the building,
which is like the dumbest shit in the world
because they know we're there.
Chinese dudes, they went right there.

Gotti made that happen.

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 bestselling author and meat eater founder,
Steven Rinella. 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.
Listen to The American West with Dan Flores on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
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.
From Lava for Good and the team that brought you Bone Valley comes a story about what happened
when a multi-billion dollar company dedicated itself to one visionary mission. This is Absolute Season 1,
Taser Incorporated. I get right back there and it's bad. It's really, really, really bad.

And it's going to take us to heal us.
It's Mental Health Awareness Month. And on a recent episode of Just Heal with Dr. J, the incomparable Taraji P. Henson stopped by to discuss how she's discovered peace on her journey. So what I'm hearing you saying is healing is a
part of us also reconnecting to our childhood in some sort. You said I look how youthful I look
because I never let that little girl inside of me die. I go outside and run outside with the dogs.
I still play like a kid. I laugh. You know, I love jokes. I love funny. I love laughing. I laugh at myself.
I don't take myself too seriously.
That's the stuff that keeps you young and stops you from being so hard.

He could've made that up. Like maybe
it was something that happened. Maybe I was already rapping
the dog growled, I was like,
but he thought it was part of the rhyme.
Because if you could
I went back to the rhyme so smoothly, he thought it was part of it.
He was like, oh shit!
Did you see the headlines when that came out?
Oh, yeah.
That's a big thing.
All over the internet.
He said, yo, I see DMX
have his dog.
As soon as he said it, he said,
I see DMX have the most legendary battle.
I stopped him immediately and I said, was a dog
involved? And he said, yes.
And then he gives me his story.
So you're saying that could have happened. That could have happened. And he said, yes. And then he gives me a story. So you're saying
that could have happened.

And so how did you develop your love for dogs?
Was that like?
I used to steal dogs.
Wow.

Gained the dog's confidence.

Had him.
Because like I said, you get friendship. Wow. And then I don't know what I mean? Gain the dog's confidence, you know what I'm saying? Pet him. Like I said, you get friendship.
Wow.
And then, I don't know if I told you this,
but there was one time when I stole a dog,
huge pit bull, massive head,
and I got it in the house about maybe
five, 36 o'clock in the morning,
and you know, probably just got the linoleum floors,
and I got the dog with the belt and collar,
you know, and scratch the floor.
I was like, get that motherfucker out of here.
Like, it took me like three,
four hours to steal this motherfucker.
I'm not just going to give him away.
Are you serious?
That's the whole time.
Right.
He's like,
get him out of here now.
I'm like,

And you know how
on the top of the roof
is that extra structure

What's your relationship with cats?
I don't like cats.
I don't like cats at all.
I just said the verse.
Cats that play in the street get ran over.
Have you ever had a cat or been in a cat's
vicinity? Yes.
When I first met my
girl turning to be my wife, she had first met Tashira, she had a cat.
But I had a dog.
They don't get along.
Some gonna get it. And what happened was, she was at work one day, and the dog chased the motherfucking cat into the closet.
And all type of shit falling, the boxes moving around, and all that.
And, oh I called her job, she used to have a job at Big New York.
I called her and said, yo, you just told Tashira that Brittany's dead.
Kathy and Brittany? Holy moly.
Yo, she said she came back from the back or something, and the whole office was looking at her crazy.
The man was like, would you step in here for a minute?
You didn't say it was a cat. They don't know this.
No, I didn't say it was a cat.
Oh, the whole thing is a body that's happening.
I mean, it's the truth.
Yeah, it's like, do you know Brittany?
She was like, yeah.
I was like, yo, Brittany's dead.

Now, is it just dogs or you got love for animals, too?

Dogs, dogs.
Dogs, that's it.

And they're great riding partners.
Front seat, head out the window.
Had a dog, X, one time.

And how do you interpret it?
Like, what's your angle for that?
Because I can see what's going on in my life at the time.
Earth, like, woke.
And then a certain dream.
And then you'd be surprised.
Today, as a matter of fact, a friend of mine called Big Prophet,
he put the stamp on it, the stamp, you know,
like, confirmed it, where I got a text that said,
it said, peace brother, God is going to send you
an angel through your dreams.

Is that true?
I don't know.
See, my grandmother would interpret people's dreams.
People would call my grandmother like,
yo, Miss Mary, Miss Holloway.
And I used to see that.
Even a bad dream can have a good meaning.
It usually is warning you. You can wake up with a fucked up feeling, but it can have a good meaning.
Like you said, that's about to happen, but it ain't going to happen.
It's not going to come to you.

Listen, by the way, we love Prince because of that.
But then Nas sat here.
Prince is cheap.
And Nas said that he wanted to do it.
I said, Nas, anybody have a friend of you doing a song
that you want to do a song with?
And they said no. And he said, nah, no one ever said that. Then he stopped himself. He said, yes, anybody have a friend of you doing a song that you want to do a song with? And they said no.
And he said, nah, no one ever said that.
Then he stopped himself.
He said, yes, I'm lying.
He didn't say he's lying.
He said, I miss somebody.
And I said, who?
He said, Prince.
He said Prince came to him and Nas came to him and said,
I want to do a song with you.
And Prince said, do you own your masters?
And he said, Nas did not own his masters.
So he said, I can't do a record with you because I want you to own it. I don't want these people to eat on it.
How crazy is Prince to say that back then?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He explained the symbol and everything.
Yeah, that's why he did the symbol.
To get away from the contracts.
You got on your masters, brother.
Yeah.
But to me, I'm just...
What level is life with DMX at?
I said this is...
This is after the two albums drop, your movie star DMX. Yeah, and I'm just... What level is life at DMX at? This is after the two albums dropped.
Your movie star at DMX.
I actually...
Oh, no.
Because I did my third album in Cali
with Crab to the Grave.
This is Eggsy Wounds.
I think I was right after my second album.
Wow.
You were at a height.
And you were Def Jam's number one.
There's nobody else in that building.
That is DMX's building at this time. And some, Def Jam's number one. Yeah. Like there's nobody else in that building. That is DMX building at this time.
That's it.
And some plus one like this.
And, yeah, yeah, and sat down in the school.
I felt like a little kid.
In a good way.
I felt like my, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
I mean, he's the OG to you.
I mean, you think about it.
Like my grandfather smacked the shit out of me.
Like, what the fuck is wrong with you?
I think, like, he wanted me to be like that.
But in a good way.
In a good way.
Like, it wasn't bad.
Sometimes you like, I shouldn't, I shouldn't.
There is no bad way for your grandfather
to smack the shit out of you.
Exactly.
And you respect him.
He wanted to call me.
You didn't respect him to be able to do it.
To Prince.
To Prince, god damn it.
To Prince.
Oh, jeez.
See, I had to watch you drink it this time.
Because every time we go to do a toast,
this shit is the exact same amount.
I'm like, is he playing?
Is he like,.
No, no, I'm measuring to the word.
Ah.
And also, let me just be clear with you.
Yeah, press.
Let me be clear with you.
I thought about this the other day.
I never say this in front of this man.
This is one of my best friends.
So I just wanted to say something.
So when we was doing the podcast,
we started this show
and we interviewed you.
Yeah.
Thank you for that, by the way.
No, thank you.
No, no, no.
This is your thank you moment.
No, no, no, no.
This is your thank you moment.
This is our thank you moment.
Right, right.
Thanking you.
You had a show.
You didn't have to do this. You sat down with us and we interviewed you we had fun and it was really just weirdly with me and
you do off camera exactly what we already do and i want to thank you on behalf of all of us because
that was the first time uh hip-hop took us serious because you know they're thinking oh
rapper interviewing rappers who gives a fuck right but when we sat down with you it made me
would take us serious because you're a hard person like you're a person in
demand people want access to DMX people want and they don't know our relationship
right so that's beautiful that's T code T-code for me. But the fact is
when we
showed it to the world, it
reciprocated. It was a game changer.
It was a game changer. It's crazy because
and I don't mean to get deep, but
I gotta get deep. I had met him the other day
in the back of the taco shop.
And I
didn't want to ever go to that taco shop
ever again in life because of what happened with Twin.
I guess Twin left there.
But then I thought about it when he said, yo, I'm here.
And I said, you know what?
This is the reason why we first even came to this taco spot.
Because when we went number one, we brought our whole crew.
And me and your friend talked to each other.
We was like, yo, we could go do a Mr. Charles.
Or we could do a Prime 112.
But eight people is going to eat.
We're not eight people.
It's 20 of us.
Look at this.
This is our crew.
Everyone here is Purpose.
And we went to that taco spot.
And I just want to say thank you, man, because I know you was doing that on a strip.
I love, man.
I love.
I fuck with you.
I fuck with you.
But just love, the thing is, I actually turned that love into something.
And we turned that, into something and we turned that
excuse me we turned that love that you have for hip-hop and for us and we turn
it into something I can never thank you enough
that whole day leading up to that episode it was so hilarious to be a movie by itself
it's a movie because by the way right because there was something you didn't know was
going on and the stuff that y didn't know was going on.
Right, right.
And then there's stuff that y'all were dealing with.
We're plotting like that.
This is actually a movie like this.
He's a haunted monster.
You can't turn around, he's gone.
We took over the hotel lobby.
We told him, turn down your music.
So it was crazy.
They're like, yo, look.
I hear Ali and I hear Ali.
And I'm like, yo.
I had a note.
X might not know what we're doing.
But they're like, so listen. Just just come let's meet him at the hotel So I go meet X at the hotel I see him give him a five in two seconds. Somebody calls and goes, you know
You know, this is my cousin he's like don't want to do a radio interview? Tell him I don't do no interviews, man. I'm like, oh my God!
I didn't know how to do it.
I didn't know how to do it.
But you know what?
How come you told me that?
This is the truth.
And I got to give you flowers because that's what this is about.
You got to give yourself the flowers.

They've been telling us, why you got a bottle boy instead of bottle girl?
So we got...

So by the way, this is not Mr. Lee's job.

He's a producer.
He's big though.
He's a good guy.
He's a great guy.
If he doesn't need it, he's going to fill it.
He's a great guy.
Now, X, do we take a shot first?
Or do we... Take a shot first.
Let's take a shot first.
Right.
That was a drink.
You can give him a drink and a shot.
It's okay.

That was the answer.
All day.
Def Jam or Interscope?
Def Jam.
I've only been a part of Def Jam.

So you might have like quarter million from them.
That was a favor.
Okay, all right.
Mace or Malice?
What about them?
You know, they both like preachers.
I haven't.
I've heard Mace preach.

We should actually kind of pitbulls because there's different kinds of people Yeah, and we break down what kind of pitbulls there's um, I like game dogs
Game dogs, they fight those that fight but i don't fight

Now, this one, I'm up in the air with.

But this one, I'm a little confused
on which way you're going to go with this one.
Rolls-Royce

64?
64 Impala? Yeah.
That's a tough one.
So if I pick one, I could never own another one?

Oh, we don't work with?
Well, who you like better to work with?

It's different answers for different reasons. I think I like Timbaland better as a person, as an artist.
And I would love to work for him, believe me.

He's a musical genius.
It just fucked me up.
When I saw some interview, some shit on Instagram, it was like, oh, I'm Sission.

They ain't even asking you if you call them.
They ain't asking you shit.
He's a civilian. It's a different thing.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
We ain't gonna put that in the meter.
Nah, nah, nah.
That's motherfucking the watch.
Neighborhood security. That's what that is.
Me going above and beyond
just to tell you.
He's looking for shit to tell you.
Hey, what's that over there?
All right.
It's crazy.
We just saw The Watch last night,
as y'all.
The Watch was on that night.
I actually love The Watch.
This shit's hilarious.
There's something wrong about the watch.
I love it.
But he's that. He's that.
Look for shit. Out there in a muggle jacket.
Too high for more for no reason.
You don't feel like civilians is different.
Civilians have to be different.
We're civilians.
It's true. We are civilians, but we play from a different code.
Now.
We play from a different code. Now. What? We play from a different code.
So, black civilians or white civilians?
It's not even a black and white thing.
It's a neighborhood thing.
You talk about hood civilians or suburban civilians?
The thing about it is, I mean, yeah, yes, we are civilians as well when you think about it like that.
But I'm saying we came from the hood, so we have to come.
See, we're more than civilians.
Okay, so I need you to break that down.
We're criminals.
As well.
I mean, once you get on that side of the fence, it's like, all right, now I need to break that down. We're criminals. We're criminals. As well.
I mean, once you get on that side of the fence, say, all right, now I see both sides and you
get to weigh it properly.
Wow.
Scales are even.
I mean, but somebody from just one side can't make a proper assessment because they're only
looking from one point of view.
But you know what assessment they will make.
It's like, all right, all right, if that's what you want to say, say it, but I know more
than you.
Even though knowing more is knowing how to be,
knowing the system.
Knowing how to go through central booking.
Knowing if it is this.
Knowing if a nigga ask you what size your shit is,
just mop them.
You know what I mean?
Knowing to ask a nigga for his cheese sandwich
in the tombs.
You know what I mean?
Yo, you going to drink that tea?
You want to eat that sandwich in the tombs?
Collect the mustards.
Collect the mustards.
These don't know that.

and when they can see that they know that, yo,
homie been here for a while.
He been here for a while.
Yeah, you see what it is.
I got a little bag with muscles in it.
You need one?
So has there ever been a time where, like,
the police came to you to give up other people,
and you had to say, shit?
Um, the f-
The hip hop cops.
I'm going to say the third time I got arrested.
But, um, so I was 14 years old.
I had just turned 15.
And I got charged with 13
armed robberies.
13?
So we go to the police station,
right? And when you walk to the police station,
there's a map. The size of that racket sign?
The map of the city.
The racket.
They have a map of the city
in the precinct.
I see wild thumbtacks.
All you.
Right, right.
But there's none on my projects.
I'm like, ah, because I wondered
how the fuck did they know where we lived at?
Because we was going all over the place.
You wasn't doing shit on your own.
Right, right.
We started seeing them hanging outside the place. But... You wasn't doing shit in your own room. Right, right. Like, ah, that's how it got, we started seeing them hanging outside the projects.
Police, you know, DT, we know DTs
because they was fucking niggas with niggas for drug shit.
Yeah, I got the same niggas

looking for us to rob.
They like, oh, we know, we know, we know this nigga,
we know this nigga, we know the call light.
So we seen him one time, we ran to him,
we did some fuck shit, ran up the hill,
we went up the hill, then came around the corner running. So we seen him one time, we ran up to him, we did some fuck shit, ran up to him, we walked to him, came around the corner running,
just to draw him out.
And pull up on him, man, kicked the man in the ass,
all that, yeah, but, so we ended up getting arrested
later, December 28th, and he was like,

I mean, and he's like, well, your man's over there singing like the fucking Temptation.
They hit you with that one.
Listen, you can get in front of this, you can get behind it.
Like, it had me upset.
I'm like, yo, this nigga's a year older than me.
Like, what the fuck is wrong with this nigga?
And I thought they had me.
Was they lying to you?
No, they wasn't lying.
It wasn't lying. No, they wasn't lying. It wasn't lying.
No, they wasn't.
But you didn't know if they was over there.

But that's the point.
He was over there.
Teddy Pentegrin.
I saw the clients.
He was Teddy Pentegrin?
Yeah.

Like a mother.
Okay.
Right up to the point where I shed a few tears.
And there were tears of anger.
I was like, fuck that.
No.

The rebellion came out.
And that's what saved me.
The angry nigga inside of me saved me.

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 Rinella.
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,

in which we experience the region today. Listen to the American West with Dan Flores on the iHeart

It's Mental Health Awareness Month.
And on a recent episode of Just Heal with Dr. J, the incomparable Taraji P. H, stopped by to discuss how she's discovered peace on her
journey. So what I'm hearing you saying is healing is a part of us also reconnecting to our childhood
in some sort. You said I look how youthful I look because I never let that little girl inside of me
die. I go outside and run outside with the dogs. I still play like a kid. I laugh.
You know, I love jokes.
I love funny.
I love laughing.
I laugh at myself.
I don't take myself too seriously.
That's the stuff that keeps you young and stops you from being so hard.

And let me ask you something.
Have you ever fell out of love with hip-hop?
Yes.
I need to hear this. Yes, I do.
Yeah, yeah.
When I started hearing shit,
seeing shit that wasn't,
damn, did you just turn it on?
No.
Oh.
That wasn't reputable
or respectful
getting points.
All right,
you can get low points.
There's always going to be
a Vanilla Ice
or a one-song-ass nigga,
but hold on,
two songs
and a little bit of that.
God, Neville comes around again.
A little bit of that.
That pay-your-bag.
Pay-your-holder.
Right.
That shouldn't be a part of it.
If that was a part of it,
I'd have been famous a long time ago
right
if that's
you know
if we could do that
you had to work
you had to work to get there
DJs got respect
DJs were loved
because
they played
the new hot shit
we broke the records
right
and it was hot though
it was hot
you played what you wanted to play
the DJs lost
we had no more control
the DJs lost the control but y'all played what y'all thought was The DJs lost it. We had no more control. The DJs lost the control.
But y'all played what y'all thought was hot.
And that's what mattered.
All you had to do was impress the DJ.
DJ was like, oh, because the DJ knows
what it's going to do in the club.
DJ knows what it's going to do.
And the DJ usually did right by the culture, usually.
Usually did right.
And that's how they get paid.
So they were paid more than they were worth.
More than their principal was worth.
The DJ became a celebrity.
That should never happen.
You should never be able to get paid more than your principal was worth.
Right.
But the DJ is different than the principal.
I think the DJ, under certain circumstances, the DJ should get paid.
When you see DJs, like D-Nice, did you see what DJs did?
Now you're talking about the payola pay.
Pay and wax shit.
Pay and wax shit. Oh, no, no, no. You can put the DJ on D-Nice, did you see what D-Nice did? Now you talking about the payola pay. I'm talking about playing wax shit.
Oh, no, no, no.
You can put the DJ on a pedestal,
but the payola pay is a whole different thing.
The DJ was always on a pedestal.
The DJ was the man.
The DJ kept hitting me at hip hop.
Thank you.
Right.
Thank you.

I went right to the hospital.
I mean, that's crazy.
She knew.
Like I said, I told you, she could interpret dreams.
Right.
She knew that.
She said, boy, when you get that money, take care of that girl and that baby.
I made her a great grandmother with my first son, Xavier.
She said, take care of that girl and that baby.
She knew.
She knew.
She knew.
She knew.
Oh, my God.
I could do no wrong in her eyes.
I could do no wrong.
She beat me one time.
But it was like, hmm.
It didn't hurt, but I cried like somebody was killing me.
Because if grandma's band up to beat you, nigga, you a piece of shit.
If she works up the energy, yeah, to beat you,
you fucking up.
Ain't nobody love like a grandma.
I learned so many lessons in one situation.
You know, grandma is always the one with the house.
So, you know, everybody got a house on the lot.
Grandma said, don't go in nobody's yard,
don't do this or that.
I was into my insects and shit like that,
bugs and, you bugs and little boys.
I saw a butterfly the size of my fucking hand.
Monarch butterfly.
Beautiful.
And I was like, I got to get it, I got to get it, I got to get it.
And it went in a neighbor's yard that had wildflowers.
He had a beautiful garden in like this big.
Not much of a yard, that type of shit.
And I jumped over the fence,
and I must have stomped on every flower
trying to catch this butterfly.
And I don't want it to be caught.
I fucked his flowers up,
and I fucked the butterfly up.
I imagine.
Then I put it in a jar.
I was happy, because I was able to say I caught it,
but then it died.. I was happy because I was able to say I caught it, but then it died.
And I was like,
like,
yo, like,
grandma beat me for that.
I told her I blew my yard.
It might have been more
for show than anything else.
You know what I mean?
But, um,
I killed the most prettiest thing
I'd ever seen in my life
because I wanted to keep it
for myself.
That's what I learned.
That's a lesson.
You can't hold the beauty that's in the world.
Appreciate it.
That's it.
That's it.
Yeah, you can't contain it.
You can't keep it.
It's not yours.
It's not fucking yours.
How the fuck do you keep something that ain't yours?
For at least 20 years, I didn't see another butterfly.
Not one.
You didn't see another butterfly?
Not one.
The little yellow ones, the little white ones?
None.
None.
None.
None.
I just started seeing them.
I just started seeing them.
Recently.
Butterflies.
Yep.
Still haven't seen one like that.
That's a real punishment.
That's a real punishment. That's a real punishment.
Like, okay.
And you may not think much of it.
If you tell somebody, you ain't going to see another butterfly.
You got to catch up.
And you're going to be like, all right, whatever.
It don't matter.
But it does matter.
It does matter.
That's the most beautiful thing that I've ever seen in my life.
So many colors and gray soul.
You know, butterflies fly different than birds. They're reckless. That's the most beautiful thing that I've ever seen in my life. So many colors and gray soles.
You know, butterflies fly different than birds.
They're reckless.
Like, I mean.
And I was catching them.
White, yellow.
But that one, I was just supposed to look at and look at.
And that's it.
You be telling me, like, because me, I'm an insect killer.
I kill all insects.
I'll be honest.
You kill butterflies?

I gotta talk to myself. So let's be clear.
What was your first training job?
Look, he's Cuban. He thought training when I said training.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't even like that.
I had to go with it.
What was your first job?
You was being a boxer first, right?
Yes, yes, yes.
Just to be clear.
I was on the boxing team.
And right now, who was the first person who hired you?
Was it Swiss?
Because I think it's a rough ride.
No, no, no.
Swiss and Alicia came in 2015.
Okay.
I think the biggest was like, in the beginning,
it was like when Mello signed to New York City.
Mello Anthony.
He was the king.
You got to talk to all people. Yeah. Mello was the king of New York. You got to talk to our people.
Yeah.
Mello was the king of New York.
Carmelo Anthony.
Number seven.
Over $100 million contract with the New York Knicks.
Wow.
I live in New York.
I grew up in Queens.
But I was living on Wall Street that time because that's where my gym was.
You were living on Wall Street?
Yeah.
Let's make some noise.
You live on Wall Street.
That's all I'm asking.
I didn't know you could live on Wall Street.
I didn't know you had an apartment.
I get credit. I get credit. You had it. I didn't know you could live on Wall Street. I had an apartment.
I get credit.
I get credit.
I get credit.
I was living in like a penthouse.
I was living in a penthouse for 8 years.
I was the only young black motherfucker that was living on Wall Street in Bronx.
Was it because you was a black motherfucker?
Yeah, I was the only.
Because you was a fucking white woman?
No, not because of that, but that helped too. Only. Yeah, it's that. What, because you was fucking white woman? No, no, because of that.
But that helped too.
That's a white woman whisperer.
Oh, yeah.
He's a white woman whisperer.
It's him.
It's him with the dogs.
He's never.
No, no, no.
So, so, yeah.
So.
The rest got dogs.
You got white woman whisperers.
Everybody got that thing.
Everybody's good at something.
So, yeah.
So, I was, I was living downtown.
My gym was the number one boxing gym in the whole East Coast.
And then it was just like, Nalo came.
Yeah, still there.
Still there.
Now we're in tobacco.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wow.
13 years.
It's still mine.
It's still mine.
Nice.
Nice.
Hey, man.
Yo, come on, man.
You got this.
Some people's genius ain't done.
That's super dope, bro.
I'm 10 years, 10 steps ahead of everybody.
So we'll take no chances.
Yes, exactly.
What made you transition from being a fighter to saying,
you know what, let me train the fighters or train the artists?
After I retired from pro boxing in 2009,
I just said, what am I going to do next?
You know, what am I going to do next?
You know, money runs out.
Right.
As a lot of people don't know, you know.
So, especially with the lifestyle I live.
You know, so, yeah.
So, quicker for some people.
Yeah, exactly. You know, some people. Yeah, exactly.
We all have our habits individually.
So, yeah.
So, I was like,
what am I going to do next?
You know?
Should I be a referee?
It was something
that had to do with boxing.
Yeah, exactly.
Do I be a referee?
Do I, you know,
like, do I be a judge?
Because I could have done
any of that.
But it had to relate to boxing
because that's all I know about my whole life. You're a judge of boxing? That's all I know about my whole life. Yeah. So, do I be a judge? Because I could have done any of that. But I had to relate to boxing because that's all I know.
You did boxing?
That's all I know in my whole life.
Yeah.
So then I just thought about doing the training thing.
I said, I have all this knowledge, all these years.
I might as well just pass it down to the people that want to learn.
Even if they didn't want to take it seriously.
But it's not going to work out.
Exactly.
They see so many people not taking care of themselves as best as they could.
Exactly.
You know what?
There's a few pointers here and there.
There's a few pointers.
There's a big difference.
I had the personality.
I fucking gave it.
Yeah, I had the personality.
I had all the A-list, you know, A-list big wigs.
Shades.
Yeah.
All that shit come into play.
And they all came.
And they all came.
And it's downtown.
You train Drake.

Yeah.
I have Usher. T.I. comes in there.

We got Nelly.
You know, we got everybody.

Kevin Hart.
Kevin Hart?
What the fuck is Kevin Hart?
Mr. Lee?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mr. Lee ain't trained by you.
Kevin Hart comes in every day.
You know what I mean?
So it's like, we have, I got one in Tribeca in New York.
And I got one on Melrose in Fairfax, LA.
So I moved to LA in 2017.
I live in New York myself.
That's where I want to really start.

That's around the corner from where
I got a nigga that own an Airbnb, Espesco Blazer. Yeah. Wow. Where? In West Hollywood. Yes. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm outta here!

mind i heard that and i heard that yeah i heard that from the mind last long but what does that
mean what does that mean when you train the mind what do you train the mind you train the mind you
know to to go against you know to to be able to defend yourself in the face of adversity but you
know yeah your mind helps you do that to be able to defend yourself in the face of adversity. But, you know, yeah, your mind helps you do that.
To be able to walk in the alley, in the dark alley.
No, I know what it means.
Or look at cupcakes and not eat them.
But what is that training?
What is that training?
What does that mean?
What is the training?
The training is just, like, how we train.

Change you

Even Satan was an angel
Can't go through life
