What up, it's DJ E.F.N.
And this is Drink Champs motherfucking Yappy Hour.
Make some noise!
When we talk about leaders of the new school, when we talk about honor and we talk about respect,
when we talk about dudes that stayed 10 feet down, 10 toes down and represented for the city.
I remember at one point the city would not smile. It would not dance. It would not have fun at all.
And then these brothers came out, they first videoed it. One of them threw a hat in the air
and then started dancing.
And we said, holy moly guacamole.
We forgot that New York is fun.
They brung that back.
They making us dance.
He jumped out the car just now
with 100 million percent energy.
And in case you don't know
who the fuck I'm talking about,
we talking about Rowdy,
motherfucking Rowdy.
Make some noise.
That was one hell of an introduction.
Nah, that's the truth though.
I'm going to be honest with you.
At one point,
even our music reflected
just the bad of New York.
And then when y'all came out
and y'all was dancing,
y'all was having fun,
we forgot that
that's what we about.
So if nobody ever gave y'all
that props for that,
make sure you take your props.
I appreciate that.
And still to this day,
you know,
both of y'all went away.
But it's like y'all not bitter,
y'all not mad,
y'all still smiling. Yeah. How is's like, y'all not bitter. Y'all not mad. Y'all still smiling.
Yeah.
How is this?
Break it down for me.
I'm going to pop a bottle for you.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
I'm going to pop a bottle.
Yeah.
Truthfully,
you got to thank God, bro.
You got to thank your blessings
because it could have went
a different route.
Right.
You feel me?
And even when we were still inside,
I still had my spirits high.
Right.
Because I knew, like, I'm still loved outside.
There's still people checking for me.
It's my family keeping me in good spirits,
showing me good support.
So, you know, it's that support system always.
And it's how you play it.
It's how your mindset is built.
You feel me?
Because it can make you or break you.
Hell yeah.
And most people get broke.
It breaks most people.
Most people become rats or they make up excuses.
The streets did this or this is the reason why I did this.
Y'all didn't do that.
That's because people ain't really, you know, sometimes when you're in a predicament, you start being selfish.
Right.
You start thinking about outside things, but you're not thinking about who you're hurting
when you want to get back outside and you take somebody else down.
And then sometimes you be selfish, or sometimes you just be on some selfish shit like, oh,
I'm going to do this because I want to get back to my lady, or I want to get back, so
I can't miss my family.
But you made your bed, now it's time to lay in it for me.
So sometimes it just be like that bro ladies would be weirdos that I think is be
awesome I can like that rate of step to the max but when it's time they have
stopping so so so so let's take it from the beginning right because me being
outside looking in,
first time I heard of y'all was obviously, you know,
when Bobby threw Hot Nigga, right?
That was it, right?
So what was it like coming up in Flatbush, correct?
Yeah, East Flatbush, yeah.
Tell us for a person that's never been to Brooklyn.
So you got like East Flatbush.
It's like every neighborhood to me, really. But certain things about us, East Flatbush. It's like every neighborhood to me, really.
But certain things about us East Flatbush, we real Caribbean over there.
Isn't Busta from there, too?
Busta, yeah.
Okay, cool, cool, cool.
Yeah, thanks.
Shout out Busta.
It's real Caribbean over there.
And it's like where I'm from, it's like we we have a strict policy on respect minus, like, respect the elders.
So, we're out.
You mean that's the Caribbean side influence?
Yeah, it's like the neighborhood, too, because the people that's around you are going to make sure you show respect to the elders,
to the elders, the males in the community.
Right. And it's just
it's structure.
You feel what I'm saying?
You don't got that structure where you're from.
It's nasty. But growing up in Flatbush
it was like any other neighborhood, bro.
I used to play ball.
I ain't gonna let you finish.
I used to play ball. I used to
do like go. I'm gonna break down you finish. Yeah, I used to play ball. I used to do, like, go.
All right, so I'm going to break down a small timeline for you.
All right?
Okay, all right, cool.
Let's go.
So, boom, from one to ten, you know, as kids,
I just want to run around the playground, tag, have fun.
Basketball was in there a little bit around fifth grade,
certain shit.
And you get older, junior high, you start doing little,
you get to the point where you mature,
you start getting puberty,
and you start doing certain shit,
want to party now, dance up on girls, kiss girls,
you know, bad shit, step bikes, you know what I mean?
Then you get to high school, you get to high school,
it's like you want to get fly now,
you want to do certain things,
you want to get a little money now
because you see what's going on. You want to really start having sexual intercurses now
with girls you feel me you you start telling you're stealing bikes to still and go chains
you start for me getting start hanging with a certain crowd where your certain crowd is getting
into problems with this certain crowd but since you're with this crowd you're a part of that now
so my high five start going from high fives
to hooking it to a C,
cause this is where everybody is,
so I'm where everybody already,
they already calling me the cuz.
They a little cuz this, a little cuz that.
I'm the cuz.
This is where I'm around, this is where I'm from,
this is where I grew up.
It ain't, I wanna be this, it's just, it was on me.
I bet from high school get to,
now it's serious in the streets with some people now it's like I
It's there is no going back and now I some people gone some people in jail
So people gone supreme jail and it's a point like I I'm rapping now
I don't know because the streets is getting boring. I feel like we up too much reason we got the streets now
So it's nothing else to do but I that's right's rap. So we start rapping, then I don't know where our energy,
us being just us not doing the most,
not going to get a bunch of rentals,
a bunch of outfits for the video, nothing like that.
Nah, we just call the camera man right now.
Just call him right now.
Just call him right now.
That's it.
Puss in front of the camera.
I love that. I love that.
So we did, and that shit changed my life.
And it was crazy because we shot High Nigga, right?
And we was really supposed to shoot Computers that day.
You had that record from back then?
I just had my verse.
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
So boom, and then...
Because that record sound brand new, Computers.
I had that record since 2013.
Get the fuck out of here.
So what was your official charge?
Attempt murder, records of days ripped, conspiracy with three guys, gang conspiracy.
What do you think about what's going on with Young Thug right now?
That's some bullshit, bro.
Bullshit, right?
Yeah, like, all for some bullshit, bro. Bullshit, right? Ah, yeah, like,
offer some lyrics.
Right.
Like, what evidence do y'all have?
What can y'all say
he did to really harm
somebody, bro?
Right, right.
Like, out of all the shit
he's doing in his life,
I wait till now to do that.
Like, for me, bro,
offer some lyrics.
Right.
And then I heard it
coming up before.
Another Rico Lord,
like, what they out there
doing with Atlanta?
Right.
I ain't going to Atlanta.
I was, bro.
Free Slime.
Free all the YSL members, man.
I feel my guys.
Slime showed me so much love when I came home.
Got to everybody.
And it wasn't no love because all he used to do was authentic, genuine love.
And for me, I think that man really, like like show genuine love to everybody around him.
And it's like, it was from the heart.
You don't get that nowadays when people at that certain career, certain height,
you get the shade, you get the rub off shoulder.
And sometimes it don't be like they want to do that.
It's just, it'd be so annoying.
I'd be so, everything is a headache.
It'd be, I'm so busy.
And it's like, all right, dude, this now again, this, this.
It's like, I'm dealing with the most important shit.
And sometimes they feel like that ain't important to them.
For me, you cannot,
because you gotta understand that niggas is human.
And when you got somebody to still do that and focus off,
it's like, ah, they ain't taking the time to do that.
That's genuine.
That's authentic.
For now, that's, that's, for me,
you don't get shit like that.
That man put two chains on my neck when I came home.
Right.
All right, how you feeling?
All right.
All right.
You know what's crazy?
We was involved in a, I wasn't there,
but we was involved in a shootout in a Hot 97, right?
In front of Hot 97.
I wasn't there, though.
Let's make that clear.
But, but I was on my way.
But the Italian dude came up to me
the night that it was in the papers.
Remember, we used to have papers back in the days.
So Italian dude came up to me.
I think he paid for the meal or something.
And he was like, man, I want to thank you guys.
And I was just like, what? And I wasn't catching on to what he was saying was like, man, I want to thank you guys. And I was just like, what?
And I wasn't catching on to what he was saying.
He was like, I want to thank you guys.
Because they no longer watch us.
They watch y'all now.
Like y'all the new mafia.
And I didn't understand what he meant at the time.
He was basically insulting me.
He was basically saying, look, nigga.
Y'all motherfuckers.
It was us. The FBI was on us. But because of y'all, because of nigga, y'all motherfuckers, it was us.
The FBI was on us.
But because of y'all, because of the money y'all made, he didn't say that.
He didn't say that, but that's what he did allude into.
And years later, when I think about that, he was kind of right.
The tax bracket that we making makes them want to pay attention to us more than the motherfucking mafia.
It's not hard.
That's fucking fair.
That's fucking fair.
You think the dude was legit?
No, he was one.
You know, the sweatsuit.
He was looking at the paper and looking at me.
Looking at the paper and looking at me.
And he was like, this is the fucking Muleana.
He didn't say that to me.
But what I'm saying is he walked over.
I forget if he paid for a drink or if he paid for something.
He just said, yo, man, I want to thank y'all.
It was almost like the Spike Lee.
Remember when Spike Lee and Tales of the Crypt
or Tales of the Hood, what was it called?
Tales of the Hood where the KUKA's clan said,
hey, man,
you're down with my team
to the black dude.
No one's seen this shit.
Nah, it was terrific.
It's 12th of the Hood.
Spike Lee didn't do it,
did he?
It's what?
Tells of the Hood was the movie.
Tells from the what?
Grit.
Tells from the Grit.
Yeah, but that wasn't Spike Lee.
That was a Spike Lee movie.
Tells of the Hood was
the old nigga with the arm.
Y'all niggas,
those running around with the arm.
What movie was it? I played it. The oldall niggas those run around. Yeah, oh
He was played in the hour out and half make it. Yes. Yes be
We gonna drink for you, man, you know,'t drink. You gonna drink for me, I'm gonna drink some of this Japanese Nelly on in a minute.
I'm drinking pure water.
Yeah, drink that water, come on god damn it.
It's the best.
For me, for me.
That's crazy.
Every time I sip I'm gonna sip my water.
Yeah, sip some water god damn it.
God damn it.
Bruh.
I'm gonna sip this Ace of Spades, you know what I'm saying?
By my own already.
But we wanna, I saw you, I saw me able to drink, don't worry.
Yeah, so how is it?
That's crazy, your parole lets you smoke but you can't drink. don't worry. Yeah, so how is it? That's crazy. Your parole lets you smoke, but you can't drink.
It's illegal.
We're illegal now.
Yeah, we're illegal in New York.
In New York, yeah.
We're illegal, so we good.
So you can go to your PO smelling like a pound.
I don't do that, though.
You don't?
I don't know.
I would never do that.
I don't even go on that sometimes.
Matter of fact, I'm lying.
When I first came home, we had a check in.
But one time I came in there with all my jewelry on, money sticking in my pocket.
I was about to go do a video.
Why?
I'm like, damn, I'm late.
I got to go see my parola real quick.
I'm like, take me over there.
So I go over there.
I got my jewelry.
I got all my jewelry on.
Money sticking in my pocket.
I got like $20,000 in my pocket sticking out.
She's like, what are you doing?
Why are you here like this?
And that shit had me so shook.
Right.
I went,
from there,
I started going to the specials.
Right.
So,
but then they stopped.
They started like,
checking in over the phone.
And then.
Oh,
like they're checking in over the phone.
Yeah.
Because of the pandemic.
Yeah,
so when they call me now,
they're just like,
they're just calling me like,
you all right?
No police contact?
Nah.
All right.
How is the music?
All right.
I see you.
I will come out.
All right. Keep working. All right. You feel me? No. How was the movie? All right, big guy. See you. I'm going to come out of that. Boom, all right.
Keep working.
All right.
You feel me?
Shit.
My PO backed it up.
No, no.
But I remember when Capone got locked up.
I saw that video, too, where he came home.
So this is where I went to see my PO.
I had to check in.
So he's like, so where's your partner at?
I was like, I don't know.
Because I just couldn't admit that I knew my man was locked up.
So he was like, are you sure?
I was like, yeah, we was at the studio yesterday.
Put the cuffs right on me.
Violated me right there because I lied.
Yeah, it's fact.
It's fact.
So let's not play with these people.
But all right, let's go.
Let's not play with these people.
So listen, have you ever been overseas?
Nah, not yet.
Not yet.
Damn.
I saw him be be there though so
how much
how much longer
you on
on parole
um
so now they did this law
right
where
they um
started a 30-30
they started a 30-30 law
where
you do
the 30 days you do on parole
every 30 days you do
they take 30 days off
wow
so
um
I've been home for like a year and a half,
not going on two years.
Like December made two years, me home.
So I never, like Prada said, I can never hire for a year.
They should be taking me home because I got five years, right?
So I'm saying two and a half years should be.
And you got a job.
You got the best, worst, most dangerous job in the world right now. Being a rapper years should be. And you got a job. This is, you got the best, you got the best,
worst,
most dangerous job in the world right now.
Being a rapper
is fucking dangerous.
Yeah,
you gotta know
how to play this shit.
Being famous is dangerous.
Yeah, yeah.
But being a rapper
is dangerous
because it's coming
from my own people.
Yeah.
Why you put it like that,
man?
Maybe you feel my back.
I'm in the same game, nigga.
What?
Because like,
even though it's kind of like,
you don't want to condone that shit,
but you in it already.
Even in it,
like,
I came home,
I don't want no trouble
with nobody,
but people still want
trouble with me.
So I still got to move
a certain way
so I won't get in trouble.
Right.
But what I'm supposed to do,
I'm outside
and niggas just put up on me.
I see you with security. Very smart. Yeah, so now I was like, yeah, I'm outside, niggas just pull up on me. I see you with security.
Very smart.
Yeah, so now I was like,
all right, yeah,
I got to, like, just shape it up,
focus up,
because I know, all right,
people out here still want to do harm to me.
So I was like, all right,
now I got to move like this.
And what's fucked up?
I'm going to just tell you,
as an outsider looking in,
anybody who want to do harm to you
is a real bad person,
because let me just tell you something.
As a person that lives the same life as you, we all fuck with y'all. Yeah, fuck with y'all we all like i mean if niggas don't say it to your face i'm
gonna say it to your face we fuck with y'all you know i'm saying like like when i speak to people
people be like man we fuck with them niggas you know i'm saying like because i don't think we saw
the way y'all stood tall when y'all had that case we i don't think we saw that in hip-hop before
i mean we always talk about it.
We always,
yeah, man,
you get your time,
you hold your shit down.
We always hear people say it.
We ain't never seen
nobody do it.
I ain't gonna lie,
we never looked at it
like that, bro.
It's like,
when we was living there,
I just,
I don't know,
for some reason,
when I saw the names,
I just knew
everybody was gonna
stand tall.
Because we all
childhood friends.
It was like,
what are we doing, bro? Right, right.
You're fucking up right now.
But it was no doubt in nobody's mind.
There was no problems with us.
It was all of it.

Say that.
You go to court, yeah, you got this, you need this,

For me, it was just love, bro.
It was just, we going to get through this.
Like, we're all right.
So what exactly did Bobby do?
Bobby took more time so that you could come home.
So put it like this, it was like, it was to a point where they wanted us to cop out, bro.
Like, they didn't want us to go.
Like, the money, it was cost to the money or the trial.
Remember?
What?
And then they already took two, three of our friends to trial.
So when they did that, it was like, all right.
Was you on Epic Records, too, with him at the time?
Yeah.
Y'all both were on Epic Records.
Yeah, I was still on Epic Records.
OK, OK, OK.
Go ahead.

Friday, it was Friday morning.
I don't know where they were waking me up.
Like, Marshall, you got court.

I forgot what it was called.
But it meant like all of y'all kept complete.
All y'all cop out right now.
Right.
So I'm like, what type of shit is this?
So they originally wanted me to cop out for 12 years. So I'm like, damn. Andall cop out right now? Right. So I'm like, what type of shit is this? So they originally wanted me to cop out for 12 years.
So I'm like, damn, like.
And you can't speak to Bobby.
You're not in the same jail together, right?
At this time, we was.
Me and Bobby was in the jail for like a year.
We was in the same house for like six months at one time.
Then we was in the same house again for like probably another four or five months.
Oh.
And yeah, but but then what happened yeah the
all the judge came back on some like yo the d.a our lawyers approached
the bench so when they went up there they took
some my lawyer like yo let's see came back he like yo they're not all for you

Now, what is Rowdy versus Rebel?
What is that?
That's you versus you?
Yeah, that's basically Rebel was like the first name I had in my neighborhood, like,
before they put Rowdy on it.
When I got a little older, I started drinking liquor, they started calling me Rowdy and shit.
So, I had to put Rowdy on the Rebel.
But Rebel was like the kid that was the rebellious kid, the childhood kid.
And Rowdy was like, I feel like Rowdy is the up-and-coming me now, the childhood kid. And Roddy was like, I feel like Roddy is the
up-and-coming me now, the rapper me.
Security with me, moving strategic.
Moving, right, moving

unity. Solidarity. We didn't show unity.
Solidarity.
We didn't show solidarity.
We wasn't supporting each other.

The Medal of Honor is the highest military decoration
in the United States.
Recipients have done the improbable,
showing immense bravery and sacrifice
in the name of something much bigger
than themselves. This medal is for the men who went down that day. It's for the families of
those who didn't make it. I'm J.R. Martinez. I'm a U.S. Army veteran myself, and I'm honored to tell
you the stories of these heroes on the new season of Medal of Honor, Stories of Courage from Pushkin Industries and iHeart Podcast.
From Robert Blake, the first black sailor to be awarded the medal,
to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice.
These are stories about people who have distinguished themselves by acts of valor,
going above and beyond the call of duty.
You'll hear about what they did, what it meant,
and what their stories tell us about the nature of courage and sacrifice.
Listen to Medal of Honor on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
A lot of times the big economic forces we hear about on the news show up in our lives in small ways.
Three or four days a week, I would buy two cups of banana pudding.
But the price has gone up, so now I only buy one.
The demand curve in action.
And that's just one of the things we'll be covering on Everybody's Business from Bloomberg Businessweek.
I'm Max Chavkin.
And I'm Stacey Vanek-Smith.
Every Friday, we will be diving into the biggest stories in business,
taking a look at what's going on, why it matters,
and how it shows up in our everyday lives.
But guests like Businessweek editor Brad Stone,
sports reporter Randall Williams,
and consumer spending expert Amanda Mull
will take you inside the boardrooms, the backrooms,
even the signal
chats that make our economy tick. Hey, I want to learn about VeChain. I want to buy some
blockchain or whatever it is that they're doing. So listen to everybody's business on the iHeart
Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The American West with Dan Flores
is the latest show from the Meat Eater Podcast Network,
hosted by me, writer and historian Dan Flores, and brought to you by Velvet Buck.
This podcast looks at a West available nowhere else.
Each episode, I'll be diving into some of the lesser-known histories of the West.
I'll then be joined in conversation by guests such as Western historian Dr. Randall
Williams and best-selling author and meat-eater founder Stephen Ranella. I'll correct my kids now
and then where they'll say when cave people were here and I'll say it seems like the ice age people
that were here didn't have a real affinity for caves. So join me starting Tuesday, May 6th where
we'll delve into stories of the West and come to understand how it helps inform the ways in which we experience the region today.

So I was like, hell yeah, that shit was fire.
Real talk.
Yeah, it's great.
The Knicks or the Nets? Knicks.
Damn.
I'm with you.
My parents was a Dardex fan.
I've been a rocker with the Knicks before the Nets came to Brooklyn.
But it's like, I always want, even when they came, I still was-
So you're officially saying you're a Knicks fan?
Yeah.
I am a Knicks fan as well.
Yeah.
We are the hardest fans in the world.
Yeah, bro. We like, yeah, bro. It's hard to be a Knicks fan, son. Yeah. We are the hardest fans in the world. Yeah, bro.
We like, yeah, bro.
It's hard to be a Knicks fan.
Yeah, bro.
It's hard, bro.
We get the most, we get the most bash.
They just be bashing us for no reason.
You a Knicks fan?
We can start.
Yo.
This ain't going nowhere.
It's a bar out here.
What's it called?
What's it called?
Damn, shut up.
And it's just, when the Knicks and the Heat play.
El House is one of them.
There's another one on the water.
I don't trade time.
Sunny Isles.
Is it Sunny Isles?
Duffy's.
Duffy's.
It's Duffy's.
Whenever the Knicks play the Heat, everyone goes there.
So obviously, if you're from New York, you have on your Knicks jersey.
And you have on the Miami jersey.
It's been hard going to those games lately.
Because Knicks be losing.
And it's like, damn, you got a dude just yelling in your face,
you want to snuff this nigga.
But you're like, if the Knicks was winning, you'd be doing the same thing.
So it's just hard being a Knicks fan, man.
And I'm also a Jets fan.
Yeah, oh, that's crazy.
You fuck with the Jets?
I'm going to tell you what this is.
My pops is a diehard Knicksicks fan, die-hard Jets fan, but most importantly, bro, most importantly, bro, he's a die-hard Mets fan.
That's all my tease.
That's all.
He's a die-hard Mets fan, bro.
It's been hard, man.
It's been hard.
You're just making me think about it right now.
I'm serious.

This was like...
This was really going...
Niggas ain't getting money.
Be careful.
I was in Paid in 4, sir.
He didn't like the way you...
I like it.
But at the end of the day,
it was still... It was a time when you tell somebody's story.
So some niggas already knew what it was.
With Juice, it was like, all right, this is like.
Even though Juice is a make-believe story.
Yeah, but it's still how it is.
It's still believable.
It's still what goes on.
It's still real life for me.
We've got that one bully up the block.
My pops used to tell me about
where his clique was coming up.
Scooter and Titan and all them up the block.
And for me, like, my pops from the 90s.
For me, so Scooter, Tut, all them guys.
The 90s? Arrow or the 90s?
You from the 90s?

and I had to ride them.
Some of my uncles was roller road cats.
Like with Tyson, we used to walk, talk about it.
So I was like, my pops used to talk about
something with bullies back in the days.
All the Danny Foots, you feel me and shit.
So it was like, when you see the juice now,
it's like, oh, Riding Man's probably like
one of them bullies my pops was talking about.
Did your pops put you on the juice?
Most likely, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
They had to.

Fuck, I'm watching that shit from now on.
You know what that scene is like?
My favorite scene in Juice Laid.
They sweat.
They going to shoot me in the elevator?
I think I shot a pop that night.
He took his head off.
When they played that Just Kill Him Man.
It's like a chill joke.
I could just kill him, man. Yeah, that head off. When they played that Just Killin' Man, it's like a children's movie. Like a Just Killin' Man.
Yeah, that was that.
That was it.
It's just like.
That was, that made that movie so extra fire right there too.
Like, I cooked my queso juice.
Cooked your queso juice?

Remember when the movie did it and the queens got shot up?
I ain't proud of it, but.
I ain't proud of it.
Yeah.
I mean, I went to see Juice.
Yeah.
I was gas.
I used to smoke Mad Mogies. I had that thing in my hand. Like, yeah, tell Mike Gingley. Yeah, he used to smoke. I mean, I was with the C-2s. I was gassed.

No, I was smoking.
I was 14.
You was a kid.

After I came home, I started smoking.
OK.
Rough Riders or Rockefeller?
Oh, I'd say Rockefeller. I was jacking Rough Riders, but Rockef? Oh, I'd say Rockefeller.
I was jacking Rough Riders, but Rockefeller, like I said,
they had me at the time, bro.
You was playing rock and weird?
Oh, yeah.
Come on, you crazy.
Had the rock and weird gear.
I had the S-Dot collars.
I was feeling like I was one of them.

Then the young Gunner came in.
One for you, two for you, three for you, four for you.
You know that?
I was like, hold on.
Like, what are they going to say my name?
Like, I was trying.
But what's really crazy, I went for,
I'd say, one group that was the reason why I rap,
not just down for late. But I want you all to see if y'all got it on there. And I'm going to tell you. I'm going for y'all to say one group that was the reason why I rap, not just that I feel like.
But I want y'all to say if y'all got it on there, and I'm going to tell you, I'm going to stop that. Okay, I got two more that you just put us on.
All right, bet.
Minf Bleak or Jewel Santana?
Jewel.
Minf Bleak is one thing I respect to O.D., but it's like, I only know like two Minf Bleak songs.
He got a lot of songs with Hope.
It doesn't matter.
Jewel? So you think on that stage. I probably know Bleat songs. He got a lot of songs with Hope. It doesn't matter. Jewel?
So you think on that stage...
I probably don't know those songs.
You think on that stage,
they hit that stage,
that Jewel's going to tear him down?
It's not about tear him down
because now you got to know
who the crowd that's in there.
That's right.
You got to know who's rocking
with who right now.
You got to know who more fans
going to come out for who.
And at the end of the day,
it's still art.
It's still lyrics.
Who going to have more crowd
through that stage?
Who going to have more stage presence?
Who going to control this crowd?
And who liver is going to be more doper?
Who can stop the beat one time?
Hold on, let me really get you out of here real quick.
Let me see how high, are they rocking one like this?
Let me see if I can do right now to change this.
You got to have that sauce.
It's not just performing.
It's not just performance. That's performance.
At the time, I wanted him to...
I wanted Elvis to take over at that time.
When Jada took over, it was time for Elvis to take over.
But I feel like he probably did it while...
He said that they didn't rehearse.
They didn't rehearse.
Meanwhile, every time I called Kiss, they was rehearsing was out. I know but that is we are performing for years
I was kidding still below. I'ma say fire fire freestyles fucking
You know why the blue guy the day, he take this crap serious.
And if he say he come like he's coming,
he a New York nigga, he a Brooklyn nigga.
He going to come.
Listen, listen, listen.
Bleak is taking it.
No, he taking it.
He's on LA.
It's not going to be no walk in no park.
So I want to see how this goes.
But I'm going to say ours though.
You know, I'm for that era more.
Yeah.
For me, even though I came up over, hold on, Rockefeller, hold on, man. say ours, though. I'm for that era more. Even though I came up off of Rocking for the Whole.
Everybody see.
When Juelzina came out, I was full force on something.
They said bandana for me.

But it still was printed to the side.
Juelzina's got a party here tonight, right next door.
I'm going to go through.
I'd like to cut you off.

Drake

Lil Wayne
do a versus.
That would be nice.

because
it should be,
yeah,
that's the only thing
I feel like
I think it might be
too friendly though.
I want to see Drake
versus Kanye
or Kanye versus Wayne
because I think
Drake versus Kanye kind of happened when they performed together.
Because Wayne would say something about Drake, but Drake is not going to say nothing about
him.
Like, you know, Wayne would have a joke or two about Drake, but Drake respects him so
much for putting him on.
Drake or Kanye?
Me?
Yeah.

Everyone thinks this is a trick question.
Me and him don't think it's a trick question.
But for you and a person of honor like you, I'm curious.
Loyalty or respect?
I'll say loyalty because at the end of the day,
if you got somebody loyal to you, that's respect right there for me.
I didn't get respect, but still, it'll be loyalty. Because he respect you's loyalty, that's respect right there, for me. A nigga can respect you, but still don't be loyal to you.
Cause he respect you, but when that situation happens,
it's like, oh, where that loyalty at?
But for a nigga, loyalty already,
that's respect already.
So, loyalty.
I wanna make some noise for that, y'all.

The Medal of Honor is the highest military decoration in the United States.
Recipients have done the improbable,
showing immense bravery and sacrifice in the name of something much bigger than themselves.
This medal is for the men who went down that day.
It's for the families of those who didn't make it.
I'm J.R. Martinez.
I'm a U.S. Army veteran myself, and I'm honored to tell you
the stories of these heroes on the new season of Medal of Honor, Stories of Courage from Pushkin
Industries and iHeart Podcast. From Robert Blake, the first Black sailor to be awarded the medal,
to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice.
These are stories about people who have distinguished themselves by acts of valor,
going above and beyond the call of duty.
You'll hear about what they did, what it meant,
and what their stories tell us about the nature of courage and sacrifice.

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.

He would not. All right. basketball, Drake. He would not.
All right, because where would you have to play?
