And I'm like, these niggas done made a classic on the low.
I tried to see if there's a record that I could skip.
There's not one.
There's not one.
I kept listening.
As an OG, I wanted to catch a little fall.
And I said, no, they ain't got it. These niggas was training like
Muhammad Ali in Africa.
These niggas, y'all,
they put it together.
They staying tall.
And you hear controversy about them,
but there's none of that that exists. They keep
it in house. And I respect
it.
They deserve their flowers.
They deserve their salutes.
They deserve their praises.
I want to know who they're going to go up against versus against.

Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, ain't nothing little about it, you know what I'm saying?
You're beating up though, but.
I'm not for sure.
Our show is about giving people their flowers, man.
You know what I'm saying?
One of the things that, you know,
we want to do is we want to preserve our culture, man.
And what y'all did, you know what I'm saying?
Since I heard Versace, people told me that record
was a year old when I
when I heard it so I'm like so you know I go to I don't google I go to Twitter because Twitter is
like the worst best shit in the world right so I went and we said we got we got y'all coming on
and people was like yo you know um they just made the 10-year mark and I was like really and I was
like um but they were saying so some of the fans were saying
a lot of people y'all just heard of them when facetti dropped but they've been grinding on us
yeah they be die hard they get mad at you so you facetti's fan they say nah you knew you've been
we've been on a synth band though they'll go hard yeah they crazy but you gotta realize people from
the outside looking in that's probably not from atlanta that probably ain't you know what i'm
saying but um let's talk about the Versace.
I tried to wear Versace today.
I was thinking about it.
I was like, I don't know.
They might have grew out of that shit.
You know what I mean?
So, but let me just ask a question
that I always wanted to ask.
This record is the hottest record
in America at the time.
Drake is the hardest artist in America.
He hops on the remix,
but we don't see him in the video.
Whatever happened with that? Ain't don't see him in the video. Whatever happened with that?
Ain't nothing happened.
We shot the video.
We shot our video.
In Dominican Republic?
No, no, no.
We shot it in LA, actually.
But the Versace song, like you said, it was a remix.
That was the remix that went crazy.
But the original record was already going crazy.
And shit, we had to put the gas on it.
And we only had a couple records at the time,
so shit,
that was the biggest record.
Right.
Coach and P,
I felt like putting a bag on it.
I was like,
damn,
they spent a hundred.
We had Versace going on.
Yeah.
We shot the video next though
to Tito Jackson,
I think.
Wait,
did he have the finger waves?
Yeah.
He was on the porch.
And then the lady
ended up looking like
Donatella that stayed
in the house.
Oh, she did.
Yeah, she looked crazy too.
I remember that.
Because at bare minimum,
Versace just give y'all
free clothes
for the rest of y'all life.
At bare minimum.
Did they ever reach out
and say,
y'all some real niggas for that?
No?
Yeah, about two years.
About nine years.
Two years ago.
Three years ago.
It took a little bit.
It took that long? It don't matter. It takes time. It took a little bit. It took that long, man.
It took that long.
It take time.
That's a little long.
It's all good.
It's all good.
For what it was, you know, for what it is.
Now, I was hoping I'd get like a lifetime free Versace.
Yeah, anything.
Come on, man.
Come on, please.
Come on, sponsorship, something.
Well, I'm popping a bottle.
But we ended up getting a shoe, though.
Ooh.
We got a shoe.
We got a shoe collab with Versace.
With Versace?
Yeah.
A collab?
Yeah. Because we done so
Made that stock go up man
For sure for sure
Yeah cause like
Remember Nelly
Did the Air Force Ones
I gotta say
Y'all did that for Versace
Because remember
Biggie had Versace lit
Nah
And then
Once Biggie passed away
Niggas wasn't really
Fucking with Versace
And then when you realize
A lot of the time
Biggie wasn't too big
To wear that Versace
So what Biggie was wearing Wasn big to wear that Versace.
So what Biggie was wearing wasn't actually Versace.
It was actually Versace. He had the glasses.
It was actually Versace.
No, only the glasses was Versace.
No, for real.
It was 5001.
Because what they would do was take essentially what Dapper Dan did.
They would take the real Versace material and just make it.
You know, for years, all of Pond's clothes was like that.
So pick up Detroit in 5001, but y'all definitely
are raising motherfucking stock.
Sajin, Sajin!
We can go to that.
Thank you, TJ.
Now, I'm gonna get into the album,
because like I said, I was really, really, really
impressed by the album.
One of the first things is, what the fuck is an Infinity Link?
Infinity Link.
Hold on, hold on, hold on, what the fin link it is?
We'll go this way.
You know what I'm saying? We're gonna lock it in that way. Infinity, you see it, right? You see the links on the bracelet. Oh
Infinity you see right links on the bracelet. Okay. Yeah, ladies on the brush. We got the new chains on the way
But the infinity link is the modern-day like Cuban, you know, okay, but the Cuban link is one of the strongest links So now modern day, like Cuban, you know what I mean? Like the Cuban Link is one of the strongest links.
So now, you know what I'm saying?
Infinity Link,
you know, time,
you know,
you know, change,
you know what I'm saying?
So now it's the Infinity Link.
Strongest link in the world.
Yeah.
And one thing I like
that's like,
y'all told Raekwon about this.
Y'all told him that.
Oh, for sure.
That's like kind of...
That homage is dope.
That homage is like kind of dope, man.
I think we got to make some noise just for that. For sure. For sure. That's like kind of... That homage is dope. That homage is like kind of dope, man. I think we got to make
some noise just for that.
For sure.
Because in a way,
you know,
me coming from that generation
and me seeing y'all,
how relevant y'all are,
how, you know,
the fans,
this is y'all world.
Y'all didn't have to name that.
So what made y'all name that
and then...
The picture of the album
coming?
Even more so,
like, you know,
recognizing the person
that named his album.
What made y'all do that? We had a whole bunch of names. You know how the... Uh-huh. Even more so, like, you know, recognizing the person that named his album. What made y'all do that?
We had a whole bunch of names.
You know how the rough dropping the drawing board go.
We had some wild names at the beginning.
Just thinking, you know, outside the box.
What's some of the names?
Give us some of them.
What you have?
Unconcealed was the first one.
Yeah, Unconcealed.
What you have?
What do I take off in the last record?
Yeah, what youo and the Last Rock
He's just wild, man
You feel me?
So we just kept on looking at the board
And I'm like, hold on
Nah, it got to be something better than that right there
So we just started looking up
You know what I'm saying?
The duos
The best duos and shit
And you know what I mean?
And you know, I'm big on music
So I'm like
Nah, Wu-Tang
You feel me?
I'm like recording
I'm like, nah
Only built for Cuban Link
When they did that
Nah, we got to do that
But we gotta do
Infinity Link
You know what I mean
And it was actually
Me and my boy
One of my boys
Me and D

What the hell happened at that time?
What was he saying?
He said that you wasn't on Bad to Bougie,
and you said, what?

him to like okay we watching him we watching him we answering the questions joe ain't saying we
just still watching joe like what the fuck you finna do?
So he was hating.
That's why.
And so he asked me the questions.
I can't really hear him.
I'm like on the last seat on the end.
We're talking low.
I'm like, yo, what you say?
About the second time,
third time,
I heard him probably the second time.
I just want to repeat it again.
Because you asked him.
The question you asked him,
you feel me?
Like, what type of question you asking?
So I hear it again,
you feel me?
It just made me like,
you feel me?
Like, what?
So do it look like I'm left out back in the booth? First thing that came to my me? Like what? So do it look like I'm left out of Batting Boots?
First thing that came to my head,
like nigga, do it look like I'm left out of,
like fuck what you talking about, you hear me?
Do it look like I'm left out of Batting Boots,
regardless of what you hear on the radio.
Do it look like I'm left out of Batting Boots.
So I just went, do it look like I'm,
and he just did what he did.
He dropped the mic.
I just, yeah, I just.
He dropped that mic.
Ooh, I ain't gonna lie,
it reminded me of the early 90s. I said, Joe, run! Like, you know what I'm saying? I said, this ain't gonna lie. It reminded me of the early 90s.
I said, Joe, run!
I said, this ain't gonna end good.
This ain't gonna end good.
This reminded me of me at that moment.
I said, this is not good.
This is not good.
Go run, brother.
And he caught on, though.
He did, he did, he did.
He did run.
That's a good move, Joe.
But, yes, and then y'all made the line,
if a nigga hating, call him Joe,
but I always in the club.
Pussy!
Holy shit, I wasn't ready.
You gotta warn me.
But every time I see, like, something happening in the club,
and that record come on,
a nigga always just point to a nigga,
if a nigga hatin', call him Joe Butt.
You have to label a nigga, man.
That's how a nigga, like, call him a nigga.

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 multibillion-dollar company
dedicated itself to one visionary mission.

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.

Okay, Chris Brown or Usher?
Usher.
Okay.
Man, y'all said it together.
I ain't gonna lie.
That shit be a shot.
It goes.
It goes.
That's fly, though.
That's fly.
That's fly.
Y'all niggas better pay attention.
You got to be on the same level as your partner.
You see that shit?
They answer this together.
That's a good one.
That's a good one.
I ain't gonna lie. Dungeon Family or Wu-Tang Clan?
Take a shot.
This is for hip-hop.
Or you're going to keep it home for me?
I don't even want to know the answer unless you really want to answer it.
I'm going to say one, but I don't want to hear it.
I can't take that.
I'm going to answer because if I take another shot.
Okay.
I can give to answer because if I take another shot. Okay.

For a letter, I got to go Dungeon Family.
Okay.

Because we only built for a family. We only built for a family.
When y'all together and when y'all confused, we would.

It depends on, like, I'm just saying, Dungeon Family deep.
Okay.
They deep in Wu-Tang, though.
But it's still albums and solo.
I'm not even talking about catalog.
I'm just talking about, like, you putting Outkast in Dungeon?
Yeah, of course.
Yeah, you have to.
Yeah, Outkast and Dungeon.
Ray and Bethlehem. Bethlehem. Bethlehem. And Wu-Tang. Good? Yeah, of course. Yeah, Outkast and Dundee. Ray and...
I think that'd be
the best versus ever.
It just can't be in Atlanta.
You got to do that shit
in the arena.
Or New York.
It got to be like in Delaware.
You know what I'm saying?
You got to be in the neutral state.
You know what I mean?
I love you, Delaware.
I don't want nobody
to think it's the wrong way,
but it's like a middle ground.
You know what I'm saying?
Because Atlanta,
they automatically win.
And New York, Wu-Tang automatically wins.
So let's go to like-
That is a celebration of both of them.
Yeah, that's hard.
We go to Düsseldorf, Germany or some shit.

You know what I'm saying?
We did our thing.
Only built for an infinity length,
nothing for an album release, so.
God damn it.
They came about to show up.
It was official album release party.
I was going to go, but then I wanted to stay focused
for this. I wanted to wake up in the morning and make sure I'm focused for this.
You know my boy French was in the bed.
Okay, yeah, French.
He used to knock down a lot of things.
Sniper.
I heard he's a sniper.
Sniper.
He was up top.
He was up top looking like a real sniper.
Sniper.
He had to scope out.
Man, did he?
Sniper.
All right, this is the last one.
Loyalty or respect?
Loyalty
Yeah
Loyalty
Why?
You got to have it
You know what I'm saying
That shit just
We was raised off that
Whether you go arguments
Get into it
Up and down
Loyalty is like
Most of everything
Cause it come with
Once you get loyal
It's like you said
Respect
All that come with All that come with And you get loyal it's like you said respect all that come with
we loyal as a motherfucker
yeah
come with respect
loyalty come with respect
that's why I say loyalty
if someone loyal
they can respect you
but they
still my
you know what I'm saying
they ain't loyal to you to do
I respect you
but I don't respect
you know what I'm saying
yeah more
but
loyal to you
I feel like it come with
okay I'm loyal
and I respect him
not enough to do certain
you know what I mean
certain things so it go in both like it come with, okay, I'm loyal and I respect him. Not enough to do certain, you know what I mean? Certain things. So,
it go in both. Like loyalty. Come with respect.
Loyalty before royalty.
I want me to agree with that, so I'm going to take a shot for no reason.
Like, fuck it.
We here. I got you.
We celebrating. We celebrating, y'all.
So, is the official name of the group
Ump and Neff?
Nah. Nah, nah, nah.
It's Quavo and Tate.
Quavo and Tate, yeah.
And it's still Migos.
You feel what I'm saying?
That's the question.
That name right there
put us...
I'm scared to ask.
Took us through
the motherfucking roof.
You can't sell it
or give it up.
You know what I'm saying?
So that's the major thing.
Let me take a shot first.
Hold on.
Y'all want to join me?
Y'all can join me.
Cheers to Migo.
He did it.
Migo, cheers.
So I remember, besides the locks, me just looking at y'all and saying,
man, I don't think they'll never, you know, break up or never, like,
that three-man camaraderie.
I thought y'all was cousins.
I thought uncle, nephew, cousin.
I got false information.
I found out today.
But I never thought I would see y'all drop an album with just y'all two
because of the camaraderie that I seen on camera.
So I guess that's the elephant in the room.
Is there anything that happened?
But that's something like, even before we cut you off,
that's something like I always wanted to do, like yeah yeah just like me personally just a bucket
list you know what i'm saying like i feel like you know what i'm saying this is my real uncle
i'm saying like we do music like this is what we came over together like we've been doing this
i always have wanted to drop like a adventure and it's like a collab album why not why can't i drop
one of mine you know what i'm saying my band just you know my band member at the same time it's my
real blood.
So I feel like that's something I always wanted to do.
And it just happened.
Exactly.
So it's all love.
There will be a Migo reunion eventually?
We don't know.
I don't think so.
Right now, I believe in the duo.
Like you just said, you played the game about loyalty. We just stand on loyalty.
And, you know, like we said, like I said in the songs, like I said in everything.
You know what I'm saying?
We stand on motherfucking loyalty.
This just about us and shit.
When things ain't right, sometimes you got to goddamn move on.
You know what I'm saying?
When ego sometimes... Like I said, too. You know what i'm saying when when when ego sometimes like i said too you know what i'm saying
when ego anything get in the way you gotta just sometimes just sit back and just watch
what's going on just see what's wrong you know i mean if any anybody was wrong niggas would be
all alone you know what i'm saying so at the end of the day niggas got problems that they need to
fix and shit it's don't got nothing to do with no lawsuit.
And, you know, P and Coach, they changed my life.
For sure, for sure.
I love them.
Even when we got to that point where we felt like we had to get a lawsuit,
I felt like that wasn't right.
Wait, wait.
Lawsuit with who?
With the QC and everything.
You know what I'm saying?
So when you go back And just Sometimes realize about
When you realize how
When the nigga do something good
When nigga do something great
You got to appreciate that shit
And keep going
You got to keep moving
Sometimes when you see bad scenes
You got to remove yourself
From that shit
And got now
Keep going
If it ain't broke
Don't fix it
You feel me
And like I said
Like moving
I mean your life like a movie.
You know what I'm saying?
Like a book.
Like I said, like, people that's in the first scene or this first chapter, the second chapter,
they ain't meant to be in the whole entire, you know what I'm saying?
They part of your history.
And that's just how life goes.
Some people don't understand it.
You feel me?
Just with any situation.
So it's part of the history.
And people not meant to be there the whole time, regardless, speaking of this situation
and the situation,
that's just how life go.
You know what I mean?
Things evolve.
They know what's happening.
Everything is,
everything facts.
They know what's up with it.
Like, you know what I mean?
It's right there, man.
Like,

So that's a blessing.
People don't even get to do it that long,
and we just had to go back to that hunger,
you know what I'm saying,
let them know that real rough, that grind mode.
You know what I mean?
We ain't really talking too much about flashy flags. We're going to let y'all know what's going saying? Let them know Like that real rough That grind mode You know what I mean? We ain't really Talking too much about
Flashy flash
Like we gonna let y'all

Y'all single, so y'all good.
But when you married, they all, they all, you know what I mean?
This is how, this is how it gotta be.
We gotta have a Dominican name
as the leak while I drink.
It's just a little crazy.
It's confusing.
Gangsta.
Okay.
And we,
we,
you talking about Not Out yet?
Nah.
Okay.
Let's go to Not Out.
Yeah.
What we doing?
I feel like we need to talk about
the motherfucking production.
Yeah,
I was about to say, who's the producer?
I love the album.
My DJ, DJ Daryl, he did 10 records on this album.
What he got?
You know what I'm saying?
Oh, he out here?
Shout out to him.
He a real DJ.
He out here.
Okay, I see him.
You know what I'm saying?
I see him.
He did 10 records on this motherfucker.
In the house.
My bad.
Real nigga, man.
And he went crazy on this motherfucker.
He do everything.
He produce, help us mix.
You know what I'm saying?
Everything in the house.
DJ's a DJ, so DJ is a DJ.
That's my brother, my DJ, my engineer.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, man, I got to have him in the studio with me.
The chemistry is crazy.
So let me just ask y'all, the level that y'all at,
the success that y'all at, the success that y'all reached,
has it ever been like CEOs
or like come in
and try to tell you what to do
or it's always y'all
in all full creative control?
Hell no.
Can't nobody tell us what to do.
We're going to do
what we want to do anyway.
You see we came
a little bit late today.
Yeah, y'all came a lot late.
Okay,
that's what I'm trying to tell you.
My bad.
What a little youth. That came like President y'all came a lot late. Okay, that's what I'm trying to tell you. My bad. What a nigga, you.
That came like President Obama.
I love it.
I'm just saying though.
He crazy.
But I'm saying if you a young nigga
and you taking off rapping,
you trying to make your own money,
do what you do.
You do what you do.
I agree.
Do what the fuck you want to do.
You know what I'm saying?
You try to be on time.
We came from none. They invest in you, you gotta do you. We black,. I agree. To do what the fuck you want to do. You know what I'm saying? You try to be on time.
We came from none.
They invest in you, you gotta do you.
We black, we came from none.
That's right.
Fuck with a nigga.
And we celebrate you too.
You know what I'm saying?
It's just like, that's what it is, but we do what the fuck we want to do.
Yeah, no, but you gotta realize how dope that is because the further and further you go,
there's always like a L.A. Reid type, I'm not saying L.A. Reid himself,
but there's always
an L.A. Reid type
that come in and say,
listen, you know,
when I sold 67 million
with Mariah Carey,
I did it this way.
And then, you know,
present that type of plan
or present that type
of information
and some people fall for it.
You know, we had a coach,
we got great mentors
that keep that,
that shit is a filter, you feel what I'm saying? They come to y'all and say, stay y'all, that and Coach. We got great mentors. We got great mentors that keep that. That shit is a filter.
You feel what I'm saying?
They come to y'all and say, stay y'all.
That shit filters.
Yeah, and they got out of the mud.
You know where they came from.
Yeah, so they got out of the mud and, you know what I'm saying,
learned what they learned and graduated into these beautiful, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, P ain't no shit.
He just had a trash bag full of money and was saying, let's get it.
That was hard.
That was the first time I ever seen, like, bags of paper and was money and was saying let's get it That was hard. That was the first time I ever seen like bags of paper and we're just talking about let's get it and before we
Even got into anything
We was just grind grind grind grind hit the street hit the street put this money up
Let these niggas know how we coming. You know I'm saying so
That's our mentality going in the game. That's how I'm telling the industry. That's how I'm entirely now
Do you think I'll get shot just to do?
Not really I watch people like interviews or just say what
Was angle I'm just be clear half and when Migos came don't say Migos influence y'all. They always say like, nah, nah, nah. Change the trajectory and shit. Hopefully you watched
at the early beginning.
We showed the world.
We told the world
that the world copied off of Migos.
We told the world.
Like, after we heard y'all,
we know the trajectory of hip-hop.
It changed the way, right.
People made music,
people distributed music,
and people heard music.
Y'all changed the game.
That's one million percent. And like I said, I'm an OG that loves People distributed music and people heard music. Y'all changed the game.
That's one million percent.
Like I said, I'm an OG that loves to give flowers.
But even if I wasn't, I would still recognize that.
You know what I'm saying?
Like everyone raps like y'all now.
Is that something that y'all pat yourself on the back?
Or sometimes you be like, man, fuck this nigga.
Why they copying my shit?
I'm going to be honest.
I love it.
That means you do so much. If it was in the 90s, we would have had to go with their ass.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
If it was in the 90s, we would have been called biting.
And biting was whack then.
I mean, it's still whack.
It's still whack.
It's just a different time.
You feel me?
You can't be stubborn.
You can't be pissed off about, we was always flatter.
But now, like, when you just hear, like, people talk about they influenced
and they not putting our name in it that's like this part that's the part
you be like god damn we should make whole me go records after y'all like
yeah like they identical identical they copy a whole pattern start off with like
rap you know Sam rap people whoever's doing it I'm saying they ain't giving
no flowers or calling you to get on the record you like damn you know say you
know love mad but then once you start graduating to like the pop and the different genres
and stuff, R&B, you're like, okay, cool, you get the like, you know what I'm saying, I respect it, you like it.
But still, you got to come on and get my flowers, you know what I'm saying, if you're doing it.
If you need me for a bar, just hit me up for a bar. You need me for a line or something, just come holler at my phone.
Don't try to sound like me. Yeah, don't. Just come get me.
Because I'm a real one. If I feel a part, if I feel a part,
and it sound like Norio here, I can't get nobody
else but Norio here.
Go get me.
Holler at me.
I can't get nobody else.
I can't sound like you.
Don't get square bones.
Don't get cuervo.

That's one of them. Yeah, that's true
But you know, it's crazy even with the military, not to take anything
in front of me because I don't want to do that, but at least
you know how your enemy looks.
When you're a rapper, somebody can hate you
and not even tell you.
Somebody can be around you and envy you.

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, 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.
Listen to The American West with Dan Flores on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

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 multibillion-dollar company dedicated itself to one visionary mission.

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 are 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.

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.

AT&T, connecting changes everything.
Now, Atlanta is not like L.A.
What I mean by that, we had Boosie here last week,
and Boosie really explained to us that he thinks that L.A. is the murder rap capital of the world.
It was something that was very spooky, me hearing,
but it was something that I had to analyze.
And what I mean by that is look at how many rap soldiers
we lost in L.A.
Because we've just seen a footage of
you guys, and they said
that, look, they're taking
their security very serious, and it's
y'all walking through L.A.
Y'all seen this footage?
Yeah, the listening party, I think we was going to, yeah.
Walking into the listening party, yeah.
I seen it. I seen it.
They said the security head was on swivel or something like that. Yeah, I didn't see that. No, no, walking into the listening party, yeah. I seen it. I seen it. They said the security
head was on swivel
or something like that.
Yeah,
I didn't see that.
Oh yeah.
No,
no,
it's a compliment.
So is that how
you guys roll in LA?
Oh,
absolutely.
Yeah,
but shit,
we still know people.
You know what I'm saying?
We've been doing this
shit for 10 years,
bro.
We done seen all them
folks.
We done seen the
sharks and all them
people.
You just gotta like
make sure,
you know,
you just keep it
real with people. You know what I'm saying? It'sarks and all them people. You just got to, like, make sure, you know, you just keep it real with people.
You know what I'm saying?
This don't got any, like, this just how we embrace people.
You know what I'm saying?
Embrace real niggas, embrace hood niggas, embrace the Robbers, embrace everybody.
It's like, like, it's just like, you know, like, it's just, it's something different.
And when you just face that shit, man, you just got to always be ready.
Because you, we look at our shit like we just always just being, just being young niggas that came from nothing, bro.
We just always feel like we always paranoid from the start.
That's a good paranoia, though.
You feel what I'm saying?
You got to feel like a nigga on your ass at all times.
And like, once you protect yourself and keep that shit real,
it just...
Most definitely.
Shit go a lot smoother.
That's a great way to think, though.
I commend y'all on that.
You know what I mean?
It took me a long time to even think like that.
Because, you know, back in the day,
we think, ah, we street niggas.
90s era, having security was corny.
90s era was the corny.
It's the beautifulest era,
but it's also the corniest era
because so many people...
Which is ignorant.
That was ignorant. So many people go on cases Trying to show
That they a real nigga
Like this generation
Right now
The shit
They say in they music
I can't
I'm like
These niggas
They all
Written indictment
It's crazy

You're manifesting it.
Yeah.
It's just,
it is what you.
I've never seen this,
sorry,
but because you were there.
You can look us up.
We never even said about taking no,
nothing and die.
We never even said if I die today,
like,
we don't.
I don't like that.
I don't play like that. Yeah, I think that's crazy. That's all I am. I don't play like today like i don't like that i don't like that yeah i

to the top you write about going to the top and then you're at the top yeah then you're right
about that you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, yeah.
K-R-I-S-S 1 had a lyric
back in the days.
I'm just a witness
of manifestation.
You've really not seen it,
so I know the power of the tongue.
It's powerful.
You hear me?
So what you speak

in certain things.
Listen, K-R-I-S-S had this lyric
back in the days.
He said,

to your shit?
Gangsters.
You rap for rich niggas, guess who's going to come to your shit? You rap for girls, guess who's going to come to your shit? Gangsters. You rap for rich niggas, guess who's going to come to your shit?
You rap for girls, guess who's going to come to your shit?
Come on.
I mean, it's like-
But you got to learn how to make it sweet.

that shit in the lingo,
bro.
You got to learn how to disguise it
because,

we ain't trying to see no judge
by no lyrics.
Right.
And I'm glad they changed all that shit.

I know that's like a cliche type of question, but me looking at y'all, doing the studies,
and seeing y'all, like you described earlier, y'all being together, and rap literally saved my life.
I came home from jail.
I had six months to find a job, And the job that I found was hip hop.
Bless you.
So rap literally saved my life.
So I can look at y'all and know that if y'all wasn't rapping, y'all would definitely be in the streets.
Did y'all think y'all would make it this far, though?
Yeah, I always had dreams.
Okay, so you knew.
Yeah, I knew.
I ain't never want to.
I mean, you know how everybody plays sports.
Let's take it down for that.
Let's keep it on. Everybody plays sports and did what they did. You know what I mean knew I ain't never wanna I mean, you know how everybody Play sports Let's take a shot for that Let's keep it on

So that was my just plan A
I ain't even have a plan B
I made myself not have a plan B
On purpose
Just so I can fulfill my plan A
So
Wait, wait, wait
Can you say that
One more time You also need to hear that Nah, I made sure I didn't have a plan B I kept my plan A. Can you say that one more time? Youngsters need to hear that.
Nah, I made sure I didn't have a plan B.
I kept my plan A so I could
fulfill my plan B. I didn't even create a plan B
or even get my mind set up for a plan B
because my plan A was going to work
no matter what I did. But it means you had a plan
and you committed to it wholeheartedly.
People will say, I don't have a plan B with
no plan A at all. Nah, they made a plan
I had. I did what I was doing.
They just like, I'm going to do it.
Nah, exactly.
And they just stay there.
Yeah, I mean, I knew what I was going to do.
And I knew that's what I wanted to do, though.
You know what I'm saying?
And I did it.
God is good.
And out of the 10 years that y'all been doing it, how many years was the come up?
The come up was about a year.
And then we had another come up year.
It was like year two. Year three. What was the toughest part of that early part of the come up?
I feel like doing it on our own like me and Tate like making noise in the city
we ran into this nigga Meek at Louisville because we front of nowhere.
What's up with BMF? No Meek Mill. Oh Meek Mill.
This is when he had like. Okay. You see it.
You getting wrong too.
Okay my bad.
I got to get a shot of that.
My bad.
This is when he had like the song House Party.
You got to go to the league man.
You remember when he had like the song House Party.
He was just bubbling.
Welcome to my house party.
Okay.
Shit.
Yeah I ran into Meek and Meek frontin' on y'all.
We ran into him and we sent the young niggas to him.
We like hey man tell this nigga goddamn we the young niggas don't know we trying to rap.
And niggas like man hey man honestly I can't do nothing for y'all
niggas man
y'all gotta take over
the town
y'all gotta take over
this spot
this town
this north
this wherever we at
that's me telling y'all that
it's the 100th troop
I ain't got nothing
yeah in Atlanta
so that nigga
when we listened to him
we was like man
that might have been
the realest shit
a nigga could have said
you know what I'm saying
so
he gotta fuck with the niggas
that's already being
fucked with Paul oh god and we already knew coming from you know what I'm saying? He got to fuck with the niggas that's already being fucked with, Paul.
Oh, God.
And we already knew coming from, you know what I'm saying, the north side, Gwinnett County, you feel me?
Right.
And coming, you know what I'm saying, like breaking the barriers into the A, it was going to be hard, you feel me?
Because we know how the city be.
You ain't from the city, really, you feel me?
So we know how we got to come to be a city.
Of course, Gwinnett is like New Jersey, you know?
It's like the beginning.
You got to break them barriers.
It went easy.
It's like the break next to Atlanta, but not Atlanta. That's what I'm saying. Yeah, it went easy. It's like New Jersey. What's up? It's like New Jersey. You had to break them barriers. We didn't have to. It went easy. It's like the break next to Atlanta, but not Atlanta.
That's what I'm saying.
Yeah, it went easy.
It's like New Jersey or Long Island.
Right.
Right.
You had to prove yourself more.
Yeah, we had to prove ourselves.
So we would say to each other, we were like, oh shit,
that's easy.
Most definitely had to prove ourselves.
It's the best thing this nigga ever could say.
But Offset is actually from Atlanta, though?
No, we all from the Northside.
You all from, OK, the Northside.
OK, let's go to the Northside.
OK, not bad.
We all from the North.
The Northside? Yeah, Northside. We put this's called the Northside. Okay, not bad. We all from the North. The Northside?
Yeah, Northside.
We put this motherfucker on the map.
For real, for real.
So y'all the only ones from the Northside?
Only ones.
Yeah.
And then if niggas came from the North,
they lied and said they were from Atlanta
because they didn't want to say
that they was from like a suburb.
Like I know some people,
but they ain't never said it.
We know y'all niggas.
We know.
Oh, this is history.
I ain't gonna lie. This is good. I ain't know none. We know y'all niggas. We know. Oh, this is history. I ain't gonna lie.
This is good.
I ain't know
none of this shit.
I am sitting here.
I'm a journalist, y'all.
I don't know what y'all know.
But this is hard.
The comedian,
Drewster,
he from the north side, though.
Yeah, Drewster from the north.
Yeah, he embrace it.
He don't say he,
you know,
he from the north side.
So most people
who was from the north side
was saying they was from Atlanta.
Yeah, that's exactly right. Yeah, whatever. They used to claim they was Jamaicans.
Yes, sir.
Exactly.
You know how folks be saying they from New York, but you really from Jersey, too.
Or you really from the outskirts, but you don't from New York.
Nah, you ain't from the town.
But y'all made it hard to be from Jersey.
That's true.
Woo!
Northside.
Can I come to the northside with you?
You come to the north, man. Please come to the northside Where am I You can always come
Please come to the Northside
You can always come
You too
I'm going to be honest with y'all
This is when I knew
Y'all was real niggas
I'm going to be honest with you
Y'all was the top of y'all game
Everywhere I ever seen y'all
If you see me
Both of y'all
Y'all would stop
And give me a five
And I'm looking
And I'm like
These niggas is the best
You know why though Because I know I grew grew up on that i'm gonna play with him
remember what specialty you had I'm dead on Norio. This is real. I can't swing.
I swing him on the jam like Mike Tyson.
We grew up on that, bro.
For real.
Let me just tell you something.
I really appreciate that.
You know,
I call myself an old school fucker.
I don't even care because I'm good.
I'm up in this era.
I'm up in this era.
But when I seen y'all, I would be like, damn, these dudes got so, that's why I knew y'all was
real niggas because real niggas show respect. Real people who stop. And I would be like,
we'll see y'all places. And I'm like, this nigga Cravo and take off just said, they stopped where
they were walking and we'll be like, yo, what's up, Marvis? Good. You good? And I'm looking,
I'm like, holy shit. And then I'm like,
I said, these niggas, they gotta be
gangsters.
Because that's how
I give it up. If I see a nigga like,
if I'm walking into a restaurant...
They should be good people.
You know what? Let's make some noise for good people.
And I respect that.
I appreciate that Because
You know
A lot of times
People say
The OG's don't give
Respect to the
Newer generation
And the thing is
I think sometimes
Some of the OG's
Don't know how to
Some of the OG's
Don't know how to be like
Yo
That's the same thing
With Bone Thugs.
OK, what you mean?
They mad at us.
I'm glad you want to get this stuff in your chest.
I don't say I'm mad at you.
We mad at us, and we love them.
So what happened with Bone Thugs?
I don't know.
I don't know.
It just came out of nowhere.
They asked about Versus.
About the flow, about the flow.
And I still like that.
I remember that.
Oh, I do remember that.
We appreciate what y'all did.
Look at the Quavo outside. Look at Quavo outside. Maybe they can tell you, because I do remember that. We appreciate y'all. We appreciate what y'all do. Look at the Quackle outside.
Look at the Quackle outside.
Quackle outside.
Maybe they can tell you, because we don't know.
He gave me the alley.
You, god damn it, Quackle outside.
I love that.
You feel what that?
I love that.
For real, though, because we ain't never had no problem
with them.
You know what I'm saying?
We love their music, and we love everything
they had for the culture.
And they flow.
It's the triple flow.
That was on the Breakfast Club.
They asked y'all something about bone thugs.
You just said,
that was the better group.
That was it.
I don't think
it was nothing like that.
I can't remember
what they said specifically.
That was right?
Was that the question?
I think y'all said,
they was like,
yo,
I think they asked y'all
about any group
and you was like,
it was better than any group.
That's how any group feel.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's how it feel like.
I think that's how
any group feel.
Y'all feel you better.
Yeah, but that's how we meant it like that.
You know what I mean?
I think it was because of the harmonies.
The harmonies and something like that.
But look, you can, this song, because it's on footage.
Yes.
You know what I'm saying?
God willing, you know what I'm saying?
If he let me make it to the age that when I get older,
I would never not embrace, you know what I'm saying?
The young niggas and whoever.
For sure.
If somebody said they want to be,
hey, yo, I got this name. I don't care what it is. You know what I'm saying? Lip off, whatever. You know what I'm saying, the young niggas and whoever. If somebody said they want to be, hey yo, I got this name,
I don't care what it is,
you know what I'm saying,
Liftoff,
whatever,
you know what I'm saying,
you can call it whatever
and he want to embrace
my last album,
I'm going to embrace him.
I would never not just,
that's just not me,
I can't do that,
you feel me?
I'm always,
I'm going to give my respect.
I mean,
I like good music now,
I ain't going to put my,
you know what I'm saying,
stamp on anything
that's not official.
I'm going to like it first
but it's just me,
man,
if I like it and you, damn, you did that and you fucked with me and I, you know. I'm going to like it first, but it's just me, man. If I like it and you
did that and you fucked with me and I
inspired you, I can't do nothing but respect
you, man. That's what I do it for.
I can't be like that, man. I don't know how people do that.
That moment had to be weird
when you guys were just
claiming yourself and then
they kind of took a shot. How did
that feel at this moment?
We just shake out of here.
We don't say nothing.
We just...
No, automatic, I'm like,
old-ass nigga, you just be like...
You know what I mean?
All the drip, I'm like, man,
you know what I'm saying?
That one on in.
You feel me, nigga?
Just a conversation away,
and I bet y'all would be on the same page.
Yeah, we never seen him.
We never even seen him.
Nah, it'd be all love.
Yeah, we'd love to see him, though.
It'd be...
Because you know why?
I'm going to be honest.
This album, particularly,
lets y'all know that y'all
respect the culture.
Right.
Y'all of the culture.
Y'all belong to be here.
Yeah.
Like, this is not something
that anybody gave y'all.
Y'all belong to be here. You know Like, this is not something that anybody gave y'all. Y'all belong to be here.
You know, and I get it sometimes.
You know, in the heat of the moment, somebody would say something and someone would take it the wrong way.
And then it goes crazy when one person would just say, you know what, my bad, y'all.
If that's how you took it, you know, we didn't mean it that way.
It has.
Because, I'm going to be honest.
Everything that y'all claim, everything that y'all say, y'all, y'all deserve it.
I'm looking at y'all face to face, man to man, eye to eye, and I'm telling y'all, y'all deserve it.
I researched and did everything I had to do because I wanted to do my due diligence.
Because the fact that I like y'all and I fuck with y'all, I didn't want that to take away from who I am at this seat
when I sit down on this seat.
And y'all deserve your accolades, man.
You deserve everything.
Appreciate it.

I used to listen to Atlanta music and underground music and thinking that shit was global.
Who, like Pastor Troy?
Pastor Troy, yes.

Gucci before he got big.
Gucci before Gucci was Gucci?
Gucci and G.
Man, even like the futuristic era, you know what I'm saying?
J Money, Young L.A.
Future before G went crazy.
Like, them niggas was going so crazy in the South,
that I just knew that they was like...
Out of here.
Going to be big, or I thought that it was big until I moved,
you know what I'm saying, until we came to the city.
I was like, damn.
Only the city knew these people.
When we went to New York, they never heard
songs like that
until these niggas went crazy.
Yeah, it be blowing my mind.
I remember I went, I seen Pastor Troy
perform, and he said,
We need Pastor Troy to bring change.
Damn, ain't nothing to say.
He got to bring the belt, too.
He got to bring the belt.
He performed that shit 13 times straight,
and nobody was tired of it.
What were you saying, Atlanta?
Atlanta.
And that's when I knew Georgia, like Atlanta,
the whole scene, period.
That's what you're saying.
Yeah, because no one got tired of it,
and I stood there, and I went to the front of the stage,
and I was like, who is this guy that says Pastor Troy?
And I stood there, and I had the number one record,
and I was like,
I don't want to go on after this guy.
Like, I don't like him.
And only I was one,
and I was like, no.
And y'all didn't,
didn't y'all do a record together?
No, it was my man.
This was my first time seeing him, though.
And I went,
and it was in Atlanta.
I think it was Birthday Bash.
I'm not sure.
But this is 98.
You came and did a mixtape freestyle,
and you recited I'm Ready.
Yeah, yeah.
This is before that.
This is when I...
Wee.
You got the nose on his ass.
Wee.
He was like,
it ain't nothing to say.
Ain't no more playing G.A.
Wee.
Wee.
Yeah.
I said,
how do all of these people
know this record?
That's when I knew Atlanta,
Georgia, that shit.
Atlanta.
It's big enough for y'all
to be self-contained. Like, you can go's big enough For y'all to be self contained
Like you can go
I knew once y'all realized it
Y'all would just
You forgot about the phone call
The phone call
At the beginning of the song
That was
Oh he was calling Master P
I think
You know what's crazy
That shit went over my head
I didn't even know
It was a diss record
Until three months later
Nah
Because I never seen the video
You gotta remember
You gotta remember
The video wasn't lit back then
So back then
I'm just here I'm like No one playing You then. So back then, I'm just hearing the,
I'm like, you know who I'm playing?

And he like, nah!
You know, Steve Mariner, a real one.

You know, we don't play that.
I said, oh, I didn't know.
I had, you know, the slang was different back then. Like, it wasn't, like, no, we don't play that. I said, oh, I didn't know. Because, you know, the slang was different back then.
Like, it wasn't.
Like, see how many South people there is now?
There was three of y'all niggas there.
No, that's not true.
That's not true.
That's not true.
That's not true.
That's not true.
No, that's not true.
You know what I'm trying to say.
You know what I'm trying to say.
It wasn't the slang.
I just said with the boat with you, little yachty thing.
It was like, it wasn't abundance
how it is now.
Now,
you don't know South slang,
you're kind of corny.
But you got to know it.
It took over the nation
for sure.
That's what I'm trying to say.
It's with the South period though.
I think the South got down.
Yeah.
The whole shit down for sure.
Look at Texas.
Texas go crazy.
Atlanta go crazy.
New York go crazy.
Memphis going crazy
like a motherfucker.
Yeah, we, we, we, we. like a motherfucker. Memphis, shout out to Memphis.
They going stupid. I think the South just love
their own shit.
And then everybody else
pick what they love from.
What you listening to right now? If we go on your car.
I don't
play nothing but me, man. I don't play nothing but
my own music.

Yeah, I'm...
You fuck that, bro.
You cripple, that's it.
Yeah, but not just...
My music, all loud shit,
and just always just trying to, like,
go back in and listen to it. Every time I get in the car it been like that though since I was in like
Middle school niggas ain't wanna ride me cuz I used to always play my music
Yeah, that's me that's it
Sure, I ain't a lot I'm different now I be playing
Bad Bunny and shit
Bad Bunny?
Yeah
Nah Bad Bunny hard
Who's Bad Bunny?
You know
I'm dyslexic
You know what I'm saying
Apparently both of us are
Bad Bunny hard though
Yeah
I'm playing Bad Bunny
I'm playing
And well
You know what else I'm playing?
Only built for a Trinity Lynch Only built for a motherfucking Trinity Lynch playing and well you know what else i'm playing like i fuck with y'all i swear to god i swear to god i swear to god
i fuck with y'all but that album is good like i'll be i'll be honest i'm looking i'm like
and i'm trying because i went early early, I listened to it early,
then we went back, then we listened to it yesterday,
listened to it again, and I listened to it again today,
and I said, oh, these niggas done made a class.
Ain't no bullshit, no.
Yeah, no bullshit.
We came to play.
No, we really went in and got, like, digested,
you know what I'm saying, dissected this project.
We had a whole, you know, a rough draft,
and we redid that when it came back,
put more songs on that one
and just finished the touches,
just kept on touching it up.
We thought we had it
and it just not,
it wasn't there yet,
you feel me?
So we went back in
and put something else on.
You come up with an idea,
you know,
you think of stuff every day,
you, you know what I mean?
You find something new every day,
so we just kept on
coming up with it
until we had that.
And it's hands-on,
because you guys were saying
you were involved
in the production
and the engineering part. Hands-on, hands-on. So you guys were saying you were involved in the production and the engineering part.
Hands-on.
So it's not like you're just going in the booth and leaving.
This shit was a real project.
You got to make sure it sounds good.
To the shit we want on stage, to the lights, to the image, to the motherfucking beats.
To even making it sound like a live show.
That's how we wanted it, you know what I mean?
So when we perform it or just give it to the fans,
just prepare it, it's just written just for that.
When you read the track list,
that shit sound like a conversation if you just read it.
You know what I'm saying?
We made sure we went back, sequenced it right,
you know what I'm saying?
Like, young niggas, we gotta like...
And that doesn't exist anymore.
People don't take care of track lists anymore.
Don't do as many tracks as y'all did.
Like everything.
You gotta build that story.
That's some real hip hop shit.
You got to be in that story.
If anybody ever like doubted y'all,
like y'all actually shut motherfuckers up
without even having that question
because every artist knows
that you only actually get paid for 10 records.
Right.
So all these other records
is actually extra for your fans.
This is that you actually care i know that because i'm
honest you know what i mean and you're the 18th that's what i'm gonna say we'll cap that 18th
nothing more than that less we really want to do more though right you wanted to do it
we couldn't know because it's damn near a double album if you think about it like
nowadays generation got like a so short of attention it's not like's not like how it was back in the day.
Yeah, I swore.
I swore it was going to be
six records with y'all.
And you got 18.
I said, oh, they showing off.
Yeah, you give them something long,
they ain't going to pay attention.
So we got to like,
we gave them enough,
not too short,
but like, nah,
because we've been going
for so long,
so we know we got to give them
a good amount.
So 18 was what we came about.
But I really wanted to do more.
Damn.
Should we go to Lux?
Mm.
Or number one right now.
Or leave it alone.
We number one right now.
We number one right now.
We number one right now.
We number one.
We're the Lux.
We're the Lux.
We're the Lux.
Go to your whole Motown team.
Oh, man.
Very professional.
Very, you know, put together.
They got y'all back. And, you know, put together. They got y'all back.
And, you know, that's real shit
because I've been on every record label.
I've been through this shit.
And I always admire
when a record label comes before
and they sit there
and they want to make sure
that y'all are comfortable,
make sure that your drink orders is right.
Nah, I actually respect that because I'm a major nigga.
I don't like independent.
He's an independent guy.
I'm giving it a heartache with you.
I just want to own everything in my shit.
We just want to make sure everything right, man.
We just young niggas from the north, man.
Came from nothing.
Make sure everything right.
We're going to do our job.
We're going to make sure the music there, we're going to pull up, have a great show. And that's it.
Goddamn. For sure. Goddamn. That's it.

a versus solo?
Mmm.

And we still got cataloged.
We ain't done yet.
You know what I mean?
We just not getting started.

We got stuff we thinking.
If we doing a del Like putting on our looks

The jeweler's got to straighten it because, nigga, we big up y'all all the time in songs and in records.

And I say, why you say that?
If you would have said the right name in that motherfucker,
he would have showed you about three watches in the bag.

That's not right.
But you give it to these brands.
They're not.
I agree with you.

But that's real.
And you know, let's speak of the WOS culture.
The WOS culture is a very, you know what's crazy about it, you know, but let's speak of the watch culture. The watch culture is a very,
you know what's crazy about it?
You drink Japanese whiskey?
No.
You gotta drink Japanese whiskey.
It appreciates like watches.
You can buy a Japanese whiskey that's worth $3,000 one day
and that's what you're worth
$13,000 the next day.
It's a whiskey.
You just can't drink it.
Nah, I be drinking it, motherfucker.
It's not worth it anymore.

I'm fucking y'all up right now.
I'm making y'all alcoholics, all type of crazy shit.
I'm here to praise y'all.
Praise y'all album.
I apologize.
I went off to a different subject.
But no, you know, to me, real niggas should respect real niggas.
And let's just, let me not even say that.
We can sit up here and talk all day.
This is OG young nigga shit.
I love it.
I like it.
This is my part.
We have fun.
But real people should respect real people.
For sure.
And I respect y'all success so much
because I know how hard it is to be successful.
I know how hard it is to maintain that success.
And I know how hard it is to do that success again.
And that's what y'all doing right now.
Y'all had the success.
Y'all maintained the success.
But y'all doing the success again.
And people don't know how hard that shit is.
That's the hardest part.
People don't know how hard that shit is to make another one.
Yeah.
Like Kyle said, another one. Yeah. Like,
Kyle said,
another one.
Yeah.
It's so much.
It may seem easy,
but it ain't easy.
It ain't easy.
There's so much talent.
To have another one.
There's a lot of talent out here
and a lot of, like,
good music,
you know what I mean?
Right.
So,
you know what I mean?
You got to compete
with a lot of things
and you've been in the game
for so long
that fans,
you know what I mean?
And now y'all the OGs.
You don't really have to compete.
You just have to own the lane
that you created.
Yes, sir.
Y'all the OGs.
At some point,
it's going to be little niggas
that are going to say,
well, tell them niggas just leave.
That's how this game be.
People be like,
yo, they been in here too long.
Can they just leave?
I remember, I swear to God,
2 Chainz my buddy
I knew him when he was
Titty Boy
and Titty Boy
did an interview one time
he was like
I just wish Busta Rhymes
would just leave
and I was like what
but I didn't
I didn't understand
at the time
what he meant
what he meant was like
yo I'm the guy with dreads
I'm the guy that
I want Busta to leave
and what I realized is
sometimes as young niggas,
that's what we think.
We think we can't exist
with the elder statesmen.
But their job has been done.
Their job is there.
You ain't taking their job.
You making your job.
Yeah, exactly.
Just embrace me.
Just embrace me.
I'm just doing what I'm doing.
I just want you to embrace me.
That's all.
I'm doing this.
You open the door.
If it weren't for you,
you know what I'm saying?
That's fire.
You too, you know what I'm saying? That's fire. You know what I mean? I'm taking it. I wouldn't be here, you know what I'm saying? That's fire. You too, you know what I'm saying?
That's fire.
I'm taking it.
I wouldn't be here, you know what I'm saying?
We wouldn't be doing what we're doing.
So that's all we want
is a little embracement
and just...
There's room for everybody.
There's room for everybody.
Not for everybody.
I ain't going to lie to you.
I'm going to keep it 100.
When I first got in the game,
when I started popping, I became platinum.
A lot of OGs didn't accept me.
They were looking at me like, why don't I?
I have no idea.
That's my question to y'all.
Did y'all go through that?
Did y'all go through having success and people just looking at y'all like?
Because I felt like people, this means me being totally vulnerable and honest.
My first album was so lyrical Lyrical, lyrical
Then my second album
I got with Pharrell
He wasn't Pharrell back then
And we made global music
Yeah
And people kind of
Looked at me like
You're kind of like sold out
You kind of went the other way
But I knew I was a real nigga
So I didn't give a fuck
Right
But I felt like
This older generation The EFN knows exactly give a fuck Right But I felt like This older generation
The EFN knows exactly
What I'm talking about
I felt like at first
Until it became successful
They were first looking at me like
What, what, what, what, what, what
Yeah
Yeah
They was like
These niggas keep repeating
The same thing in the hook
But they don't understand bro They're like shit Nigga we gotta sell this repeating the same thing in the hook. But they don't understand, bro.
They're like, shit, nigga, we got to sell this shit.
You know what I'm saying?
We come from nothing.
It's a new era, too.
You feel me?
When these folks want it and they put this shit on the table, we got to go get it and
bring this shit back to our families and bless the hood and do these community days and do
these honcho days for y'all.
And as long as we make sure we grind it and all the way come back to the town
and show these folks what could be created
and how big we can be.
Shit, nigga, ain't nothing
Hollywood but the name.
Ain't nothing changed.
You feel me? For sure.
Is there ever a strategy where, let's say
Versace, Versace, Versace, you're doing something
you know is going to hit.
Because it's of that moment.
But later on,
you know you're going to hit them
with something different.
Like the idea that everybody said
that Pac spoke to the people,
but he was always meaning
to come back to the people.
And then give them something else.
You're the creator, bro.
Sell it.
Yeah, you got to sell it.
You know what I'm saying?
You got Tesla,
you got all these cars
who make a thousand cars.
You think these niggas
holding on to Mustang GT?
They got to sell it.
You feel me?
We got to sell it.
This shit ain't nothing but like,
our testimony, these ain't nothing but new cars,
new jewelry, new everything.
These people selling, can't hold it.
We got to sell it.
For sure.
It's a new era, and you just got to keep feeding them.
Feeding them, you know what I mean?
They can't stay on one thing for too long.
So now you just got to keep giving them something.
You just gave them something so great, they know it's great,
they want more and they want more.
Just like a regular, but it's like you got to keep feeding them.
Just like the dope.
Yeah, man.
Just like the goddamn dope.
Got the selling.
Got the selling.
Let me give you another block.
Let me give you another block.
