is supposed to sound. This is exactly how classic dudes, how legends is supposed to sound. They ain't supposed to chase the new generation. They're supposed to stay in their goddamn lane and keep continuing. When I heard this album, I kid you not, I believe me and you text back and forth like six, seven

times like, yo, this is classic, classic. This is not normal. This is not regular classic. This is a classic, classic. If you've never heard of the West Coast or never been to the West Coast and you put on this goddamn album. This is such a straight. This is such a goddamn straight in case

Like, dead seriously, we was in the gym earlier, and everybody tried to quit walk. None of us had it right. We all looked at crazy because it's just natural. Like, it captures the West Coast so good. And you sound young, but you sound classic. You sound, you know what I'm saying?

You get what I'm trying to say? Fresh and energetic. Yes, yes, yes. Is this the first release on Death Row since Snoop Dogg has acquired Death Row? Yes. Let's make some noise for that. Make Snoop Dogg.

It feels so right, man. So let's the album drops May 31st. Okay, let's address the title first. Tell the people the title. We All We Got, W-A-W-G. You know what I'm saying? When it all comes down to it, when you leave this earth, and we look at everything that we accomplished and everything that we did,

we look at it like, accomplished and everything that we did, we look at it like, man, this is all we got. You know what I'm saying? Let's stick together. Because like they say, when the family feud... Right, nobody wins. Yeah. You want some champagne or you want a beer? Whatever one you want.

I want to know what's up with these motherfucking candles, Kyle. Oh! What's up with these candles though cuz cuz one of y'all look like the pope and the other one

I'm just saying, no. I just went there. That was dope. But listen, first off, do you want some champagne or do you want a beer? Which one do you want to start with? I do champagne. Champagne. Because this is a celebration.

I want some of that, too, because this is some expensive shit right there.. Champagne. Because this is a celebration. I'm going to have some of that too because this is some expensive shit right there. You know how Norian have to do, man. You know they do that big shit. No, but how dope is it when you heard the news that Snoop got Death Row? Like how happy was...

I'm asking you first, but I want y'all both to ask that. What kind of feeling was that? Well, first, well, I'm going to be honest, guys. First thing I did was call Delmar. And I'm talking about something different. And then he told me,

yeah, you know, Snoop done bought Death Row. And I'm like, yep. I said, you ready, Kyle? Because the champ's going to call sooner or later. Right. And Dad was like, yeah, fuck all that. And I was like, my denial. Yeah, yeah.

Me and Snoop, you know what I'm saying? We've been feuding for about 12, 15 years. Right. You know what I'm saying? So we back. And that's what's beautiful about it, because. We cousins. You know what family does.

We family. We break TVs, drum machines and shit like that. Turntables and all that kind of shit. Yeah, Dog shot his equipment up. He shot my equipment up one time. Wait, literally? Yeah, we got into an argument. You know what I'm saying?

I wasn't ready. A terrible argument. Put him in a headlock. He went in there and shot my drum machine up. Bust the TV. I think that's when we made Ain't No Fun. That's when we made Ain't No Fun like that. Ain't No Fun. Your dog said, oh, what?

Boom, boom, boom, boom. Now what, nigga? And Dad was like, oh, man. That's the old TV, you know, the big one that you just bought. We family. We butt heads all the time. And the great thing about this project We All We Got is self-explanatory

Because that's real I've been saying it to the homies forever So has Delmar Has been saying it, Dad's been saying it, Snoopy And it's like, you know, Snoop said That's the title of the album, We All We Got Because it's true, you know Like you and Capone

We All We Got Like you and F, We All Right. You know, like you and Capone, like, you know, we all we got. Like, you and F, we all we got. You know what I'm saying? And it's self-explanatory. Yeah, because you know why? Like, me watching this album unfold and me, you know, speaking to Snoop and me seeing him, how energetic he is promoting y'all. He's excited, yeah.

He like. You're my darling, darling. I'll take one, too. I'll take one, too. I'll take one, too. You know, like a big kid starts. Let me join y'all. Let me join y'all. You know, like a big kid starts singing and dancing when he get food, right?

Right, right, right, right. So me seeing Snoop being so happy, I guess because it's like full-fledged. Your first album was on Death Row, and then this to be your album in 2024 on Death Row again. It just feels so euphorically... Organic. Organic. It just fits. Ultron.

Yeah, yeah. That type of shit. Because I remember at one point, you didn't want to rep Death Row at all. I was just a killer. Right, right, right. To the fullest. Right, right.

I don't even know why you said that. You know, Dad was going to go there. I was a real sensitive to the fullest you know what I mean I don't even know why you said that you know dad was gonna go there I was a real sensitive moment in my life there was a lot going on

you know like feuding and battling you know gang wars and everything you know what I'm saying this shit's turned our whole life around from the death of Tupac

you know what I mean and feuding and getting your money and your music and I couldn't let that shit just situding, and getting your money and your music, and I couldn't let that shit just sit there. I had to go and steal that. You got your champagne there?

I got mine. Okay, well let's give a shout out right now. Cheers, cheers, cheers, cheers. And get bro, run this motherfucker. Positivity, positivity, positivity. Hell yeah, we all we got. Jesus. I learned that from you, Norrie.

Let's give a shout out to Mr. McFadden. He did that perfectly too. He did that perfectly, too. He knew regular fellow. He's my brother right here. This is our older brother right here. So, all right, boom. I'm drunk already. So Snoop comes to y'all and says,

we want y'all to be the first album to drop on a new Death Row. One thing I noticed on it, on the album, I think I got an exclusive copy, I'm not sure, but it says Death Row and tapes. Yeah. Does it say Death Row records and tapes? So, I mean, just bringing it back, right? One of my favorite joints On a joint Is Smoke Up

Yeah that's the first song we did That's the first song It's the first song on the album But it's also the first song Y'all did Yeah how That whole thing came up You know

My cousin Bean died Oh Snoop Brothers Yeah so you know what I'm saying And God bless We decided you know I flew into LA one day

And I just Someone just told me to Call my cousin Papa and call Snoop. And so Snoop like, yeah, come over about 6 o'clock. So I slide over there, smoke blowing out the window and shit. That's 6 in the morning. You know, that's 6 in the morning. Right. So I'm sitting there, and he called Corrupt over.

I didn't know he was calling Corrupto because I had blocked Corrupto on Instagram Jesus and my wife and my wife my wife ain't got shit to do I'm Snoop Dogg management now I'm like what

Snoop Dogg and so you know. Pretty gang mafia. Nigga here. I called Snoop like, hey, you know, to see what's up and all that. So we go over there and Snoop, he come in. He dabbed me up but didn't know it was me. Wow.

And then he. I was like, my nigga. Hey, what's up, cuz? I said, damn, that look like dad. I was like, you big head motherfucker. What you doing up in here? Good job, Del Mar. Oh, it's cracking.

I looked at Dog and he's on the, what's that, the board. And he just looked back and smiled. Right. And then he looked back and I said, you two motherfuckers. And then he put the beat on. It was over. The song was done in like eight, nine minutes. It was over.

Wow. It's over. That quick. That's one of my favorite joints on the album, man. It sets the album off perfectly right after the intro. And the speakers in it, he go, You know what's crazy, though, Delmar? Because our history of making records,

the first record we make always ends up being a single, like a G thing for the Chronic. The first record Dr. Dre and Snoop make. And it turned out three years later was when The Chronic was released and it still remained the number one single. And it was the single for it.

And then What's My Name? That was the first record that they made for Snoopy style. And after that, them songs was just flowing like Niagara Falls made for Stokey Style. Wow. And after that? It turned out to be the number. Them songs was just flowing like Niagara Falls. So good. Three and a half days.

That's crazy. We had the whole album wrapped up. You had to do this whole album in three and a half days? And they did it together. That's what I think you hear the difference in that. Yeah, I could tell you I was in the studio. That chemistry was there. The bass came from Georgia, came out from Atlanta. I drove down from Vegas.

Me and my wife, Lee Gotti, stayed and just... We just seen Snoop start smiling and shit. So, you know, it's a good time. Right, right. You know what I'm saying? So, he started telling us the plan, putting that shit down, and we executed it.

You know what I'm saying? And now we're hitting the road, going to Canada. Wow. They let y'all in Canada? Yeah. Damn. But we had to do the Border Patrol video TV show, or they wouldn't let us in there. So if y'all ever see that TV show, remember they forced us to. We didn't get no money.

Yeah, I'm like, we still trying to go back. I wasn't ready. I'm just saying So let's go to the next joint We All We Got We All We Got The East Siders Okay

Trady and Goldie Logue Yeah Goldie Logue is on that too? Yeah I thought I already heard Trady Goldie Logue up in this motherfucker Okay You know that's the first

I think that's the first record We've done with all of us Yeah that's the first record We've done with each other. Because we've always been on, like, records with him. Been, like, 20-something years. We ain't never did a record together. Not all together.

We did records separately. Right. But not all. No, that's the crew. On hood. So how did that come about? Snoop Dogg. Right.

His idea? The champ. Yeah, you know, I like to run in there first and get my verse off first. And then Trey, he came right after I'm Ready Cause. Bang. He came and right when he finished, okay. You know what time it is. Silkiness.

And then I told Snoop, it was for the Eastsiders. And then I told him, we need to make this for ours. Right. Is that what he was saying? All we got, yeah. Oh, shit. Damn. You know what I'm saying?

See that sacrifice the Eastsiders did? Yes. Like our first single, that was from, because like he said, I signed with Snoop Dogg Management. He co-manages me with my wife.

And then we, the record that we did, Smoke Up, was for the Corrupt Solo album. Oh. Yeah, just take it and tell us the Corrupt Solo album. But when Delmar came home, Dog said DPG time. And it was like

everybody sacrificed. It's like, you damn Skippy. East Sider sacrificed their record. I sacrificed my solo record. Dad sacrificed. We all sacrificed. Dog sacrificed because he got an album dropping in July. His album with Dr. Dre dropping in July.

He got an album coming out next month with Dr. Dre. Oh, my. On Death Row? No. It's Death Row. I don't know. Is it? Aftermath and Interscope. Damn. Death Row, Aftermath, and Interscope. Isn't that incredible? Goddamn. Make some noise for that. Dr. Dre with that almost oh, my mom.

So it was at one point, there was this commercial that came out. I guess everyone thought it was real. Everyone was like, the dog pound broke up. Where's the dog pound? What happened to the dog pound? Yeah, we even said it to one of the rest. I said, Dad, what happened, Kyle? I'm breaking up some weed right now.

What's going on? Did you re-block me, Kyle? I got snubbed. Who came up with that campaign? I got to know. Who came up with that campaign? Snoop Dogg. Snoop? I can see him coming up. Damn.

Snoop, Snoop, Snoop. No, everything's the champ. You know, me and Daz, Dogg really wanted Daz, because, you know, Daz's production and the mic, so he really wanted Daz to be a star. He's like, man, you're going to be a star on this album. Just shine. You're an artist. Be a star. Get on that mic and have a ball. I be a star. He's like, man, you're going to be a star on this album. Just shine. You're an artist.

Be a star. Get on that mic and have a ball. I had a ball. Yeah, pause. And then, you know, myself, you know, that's what I do. So he was just like, y'all just follow my lead, and I'll take you to a different plateau. So be it.

All right. Yeah, it is what it is. That was one thing that I noticed, too, on the album, is I was looking for your production. Did you produce an album or this one you fell back on? I fell back on to the next one. The next album, it's all me and Superfly. Right.

Oh, yeah. Right. But what made you fall back on this one? Because he told me to. Don't beat him up, Dad. Don't do that. I said, you know, I'm just going to chill and get back. Like I told him, I'm going to shut the fuck up, kick back, and get rich.

Right, right, right, right. You know what I mean? Because when I say too much, a lot of people get intimidated and don't like that stuff. Hey, I'm going to say, though, I already see things that I'm finna steal. Like these beautiful shot glasses. Are you ready for shots already? I mean, I know your style, man. Me and you got together plenty of nights.

Plenty of nights. Plenty of nights, man. No, because then you're going to get me mad, and I'm going to start cussing. No, you're not. You're not. You know what I'm saying? I don't want to do that.

Let me tell you something. Oh, my mama, cuz. You get them a little bit, a little mad, and that's it. Cuh, cuh, cuh, cuh, cuh, cuh. Cuh, cuh, cuh, cuh, cuh. You know what I'm saying? Cuh, you know what I'm saying? And it's so ill.

Individuals, you know what I'm saying? Like, this is, do y'all understand how legendary, how important y'all are to hip-hop? You know, when you're making records, like I be saying, you know, like when we're making records,

we really don't know what we're doing at the time. We're just having fun making the records. And then like great liquor, great wine, it gets fine. Right, right, right. You know what I mean? And then we appreciate what we did. But you know, when I look at my catalogs, I remember all my lyrics.

Right. We get paid for. Right. Why you look at K.R.U.P. like that? You know what I mean? Remember, K.R.U.P., you don't be forgetting your like that. You don't need to rap like that. You don't need to rap like that. You don't need to rap like that. You don't need to get your lyrics. Come on, no. He's a lawyer by trade.

I'm a dog produced by Battle Cat. Oh! Shout out Battle Cat, man. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? We created that in the studio, just going back and forth, thinking about running the MC. I was the first one. Don't just let us do it by ourselves.

You know what I'm saying? Great groups. Great groups. Great groups. E, P, and D, you know what I'm saying? Just going back and forth, having a great time, you know what I'm saying? And plus that cut the bars down for you on stage. You know what I'm saying? And act and do all that great shit.

That's the first record that Dawg wasn't right there. You know, all the rest of the record, Dawg was right there. And he directed. That's why it sounds so beautiful. I love it, the way Dog directed. On that one, he had to do an interview for 30 minutes. He went to do the interview. Song was done.

And when he came back, the song was done. He left us in there with the main things you ain't supposed to leave me in Del Mar which is the mic and the equipment and the weed oh and the drugs don't do this with the weed oh hell

you just grow it here grab it you show this dad put some in his pocket and then he started rolling some this dirty dog ass nigga hey we working it's not for play.

That studio's not for play. How different did it feel making this project versus the projects y'all did together younger? Great question. No arguments. No disgruntled type of feelings. So mature? More mature in this situation? You get more mature. Yeah, that joint is ill.

Letting all the bullshit to the past. We here now, you know what I'm saying? 51, 52. You know what I'm saying? Just letting all the bullshit to the past, because we here now, you know what I'm saying? 51, 52, you know what I'm saying? Right. Fuck we arguing for. Right. Leave that shit in the past. Let's make this great music and prove these other motherfuckers wrong.

Jesus Christ. It was Chris Stout, but now it's... It's the H-S-V, goddammit, goddammit. Yeah, yeah. Okay, this is one of the crazy joints, too. Bro, need some space. Need some space. Now, you're talking to chicks and to niggas at some point.

Yeah, everybody. You know, sometimes you do need some space. Right, right, right. I'm a Gemini. You know, I need my space. And I need some weed. Can I hit the motherfucker? Jesus Christ.

You're so stingy. I like when we go places and they give him weed because he gives it to me. Right, right, right. I do. I do. So that's why, you know, I can't smoke a cigarette. I might as well smoke some drugs. So how about you?

How did that song come about, Need Some Space? Man, you know, I'm going to be honest because I talked to all my young folks because I played the record for people. Whenever I could come on, they're like, that's blast. And I'm like, okay. So I had to ask Daz, because, you know, Daz is my translator. He always lets me know what's cracking. Because I'm an old-ass man, because he hates when I say that,

but it's real. I hate when I say that shit. We ain't old. But the thing is, they showed me this shit. This nigga got 100 million views type of shit. Right. With him and Tiger. Yeah.

Ty Dolla. And I'm like, damn. I never knew. I always just liked the record. I loved the record. All right. So now I'm like, damn, this touches the youth. Because they know who Blast is. so it made me pay more attention to the

record and i just love it because man snoop was sitting there he's like yeah we need to put blast on it right you know what i'm saying because snoopy come with the ideas and you know we executed because uh snoop said he ain't been in that and you know the deferral studios because he was working with dr dre so that's what y'all were working with, because he was working with Dr. Dre. So that's where y'all working? Who was working with Dr. Dre? Snoop was working with Dr. Dre. So his studio wasn't being used. And we were the first ones to come back in there and crack it open. Wait, the Englewood studio?

The one where we did the podcast with him, I'm sure. And that was Death Row Studios? Yeah, that's Death Row Studios. That's Snoop's studio down there. But he wasn't recording in there for months because he'd been with Dr. Dre. Oh, I get what you're trying to say. I can understand that. And we come in there, and he and he said man this studio ain't been cracked open in months

Y'all knocking off the dirt, you know the little dust off of there and we start working I think we the first rap artists to sign the death row. Yeah, we only put out October We just signed with them yesterday, you know what I'm saying? Oh yeah, you Smoke for the signing. You know what I'm saying? It's done. We got new masks. We knew everything.

It feels good. The money flowing around like water around here. You know what I'm saying? We got the old stuff back. You know what I'm saying? Right. You know? Your old masks?

No, no, the publishing. OK, wow. All the rights, you know what I'm saying, and everything. So you know, we control all that. You know what I'm saying? So that's a hell of a hell of a great thing. So I'm just going through my books right now, so I got like about

9,000 songs, you know what I'm saying. He's excited! Yeah! Talk about full circle. And then how about the masters moving forward? Do you guys own this master, or is it a 50-50 thing? He's got some percentage thing with the dog,

up, getting $9 a unit. That's when it was $10 and $12 a unit. Right. Different times. It was good money back then in the 90s, and that was shit. And I'm going to be honest. I've been waiting centuries to be back with the dog.

Right. You know, because. It's a great thing. You know what I'm saying? But I ain't going nowhere. Whatever you ask me to do, it's done. You know what I'm saying? Right.

We had a great time. We're doing this. And we're going to keep on doing it. Hello! Bitches. Hand it. Shit, if this is just a sample of what y'all could do together, the future looks good.

It was only a week worth of work right here. Next dog problem. And it sounded like Snoop wanted to be on every record. It's like you had to tell him to chill at one point. Hell no. That is the dog problem. Especially when that premiere track came. That premiere track is crazy. No, no, no. That premiere track was who's the hardest, right? Oh, man. Hold on. Let is the dog. Especially when that premier track came. That premier track is crazy.

No, no, no. That premier track was Who's the Hardest, right? Oh, man. Hold on. Hold on. Let's say that. I got this shit in order.

Come on. You're fucking it up. Dog was like, man, you know what? I ain't going to get on this this stuff for y'all. After me and Delmar late, who was it?

It wasn't me. It was you and RBX. Yeah, when we started laying shit down. That nigga Dog said, oh, hell no. He gets excited. You know, I told him my other dad said, man, they're like, you want to slap somebody.

I'm on this motherfucker. The way he. Yeah. He's like, now you ready to beat up a motherfucker around here. I hit him at four in the morning. And I was like, yo, you know, you never got the gin and juice. Yo, he hit me right back. Send me y'all singles.

He sent me y'all clothing ads. I was like, this motherfucker, he is on it bro. So, let's make some noise for Snoop Dogg. One time. The champ, the champ is here. A lot of people say artists can't be CEOs, but I say a lot of the times artists are the best CEOs

because they know how to treat you. Maybe they had to go through a certain period where they didn't know that. But then once they go through it, they know that. Like, one of the easiest festivals I ever did was Lovers and Friends. And that's Usher running that shit. You know what I'm saying?

He treated me like how I wanted to be treated. So I always say that. I say, once the artists go through something, that artist can actually be one of the best CEOs. And CEO, I'm stupid. But you know what, though? It's like, you know, when we was young, you know, what do you know when you're young? Like we're the originals now. 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 did 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. 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 MeatEater 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.

Right. You know what I mean? So we've experienced loss. We've experienced gang, the the game and gangbanging.

You see what I'm saying? So that's the great thing about now with us is we're all seasoned.

We know how to play our positions. And to me, the greatest leader I've ever had is the Dawg. And Dawg has always led me to championships. So that's why I'm in for the full Monty when it comes to Snoop.

That's fair. That went on. I like analog. Tell them why, Delmar. I can run my stuff through the analog to go through the digital. You know what I'm saying? So it gets that same ride or feel. So you just run whatever you got into your analog, then run it into your digital.

Yeah, we were solo artists because, you know, when The Chronic came out, we had our name on it. Right. And when Snoop came out on the second album, we was the Dog Pound. I didn't realize that. So y'all weren't the Dog Pound on that album. But second album, it was the Dog Pound. I didn't realize that. So y'all weren't the Dog Pound on that album. But we never was signed as the Dog Pound. You know what I'm saying? And contract-wise,

we just signed as the Dog Pound with Snoop. You know what I'm saying? First time ever Dog Pound was on contract. Yeah, on contract because we just made that shit up. You know, shit went wherever we took it. So the Dog Pound was never officially a group? On contract. On contract, that's what I'm saying. So the Dog Pound was never officially a group. On contract.

On contract. That's what I'm saying. On contract. He was solo. I was solo. And then we just said, we're going to be the Dog Pound, cuz, because we already had the Dog Pound as all of us, which was Snoop House. Snoop named his house.

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.

Stop messing with me I'm going on vacation We'll open it up With another bottle Of Champaggan 8 Just so y'all know Cause we celebrating The West Coast night. What were we talking about again?

The weekend, the song The Weekend on the album. Oh, yeah. So, you know, for me. Pardon my French. No problem. Well, that record was about, Dog told me and Daz, we always talking about these bitches and hoes and these garbage can ass fucking goofy rat-haired bitches that we need to make something for the ladies pop it pop it baby pop it don't stop it yeah so we need to make

something for the ladies you know in our life he's man, I always do this type of shit because I always talk about Taboo and always give it up for Shantel, you know what I'm saying, on my records. Y'all need to do one of those.

Yeah. So, that's what we did. Delmar did his. Talked about Nani, my girl. Nani, yeah,

we talked about his wife and I talked about my wife and it felt good because that's what the weekend is about, and then he put October on there, which, you know, that's a specialty, talking to the ladies with that shit.

You know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, cuz, October's killing them right now. Up, don't hurt yourself. That's the ladies saying thank you. Oh, that was... Yeah, that's what that was. When you tell the ladies, I said my pleasure. You understand me?

Yeah. But, you know, that's what The Weeknd is about. Dog wanted us to be on a grown level. Right. Because if I'm not mistaken, that record comes after we did I'm Grown. Yeah. And then we went into the grown mode. It's like further growing.

Yeah. Right. Further grown, cuz. And it goes in from I'm Grown into this record, giving it up for the women in our lives who we appreciate and love. That's grown. That's dope. Which goes into the next record, which is giving it up for the homies that passed away,

the ones we love and our family which goes into the final record where we just want to find out who's the one that can just burn a building down cause without mesquite wait chill chill because the next one is always on my mind right always on my mind that's where i give it up for the homies. Snoop Dogg. Shouts out. This brother that passed away. I give it up for my mom, my dad, my brother. Nate. Nephews. Right.

You know what I'm saying? Yeah. You know, serious song. How hard is it making records like that? It's easy because, you know, I just celebrate them. Okay. That's from the heart. I lost my life.

You know what I'm saying? You know, like knowing one day that we all have to come to that conclusion in our life. You know what I'm saying? Right. Deal with that type of stuff and see how when you get old, how people demise when they get old. You know what I'm saying? How they pass away like that when you're sitting there watching them. Right.

Dead to the end, to the last. You know what I'm saying? That's a difference right there. Right. And to the end, to the last, you know what I'm saying? That's a, that's a difference right there. Right. And then you too, you shouted out, your mom's on there too, right?

Always on my mind. That's some bomb ass weed. Right, yes. That cuz got, that weed really was. That's the guy, that got water.

Y'all both got water or just that? she's just feeling the stuff. Yeah, I could. You know, snuck in the water on, it's water champs.

I was pecking. I was pecking. Hey, no, but you know, yeah, you know. Always on in the water. It's water champs. I was faking. I was faking. No, but you know, yeah, you know. Always on my mind. You gotta have water when you're smoking weed. Hey, look, cuz,

it was really, really sentimental to me, right? Uh-huh. Because I wrote it. Then as I'm laying it, I got to that last part where I gave it up for my mama.

Right. And I had to leave on the side of the studio because I had to pause. Mm. Jigga. Because it was real. Mm.

You know, for me and Daz, our moms is all we had. Delmar had his paul, too. I had my pops, too. But our moms, though, that was just a different plateau. And yeah, you know, that was real sentimental to me. And then there's Nate and there's Badass and all the people I mentioned. That was real because this is really like the first time we've been together because like 15, 10 years.

You guys together in the studio. I mean, just all of us hanging and everybody coming together. I had to think about all that. For the last 15 years, you know, I've been probably on some bullshit, probably, you know, on my own, you know, finding myself doing what I need to do, you know what I'm saying? Because I lost both of my parents. So, you know, like I say, you know, like when you lose both of your parents,

you know, you have to think for yourself, push forward. They don't want you sitting there moaning and crying. So they want you to push forward. I can just hear my mom saying push forward. Because, you know, my mom, she wrote songs for Bobby Blue Blend. Wow. James Cleveland, Stax, all that type of stuff. So, you know, she was in the music game.

I got music on her from, you know, I hear those songs. Right. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, just got to keep pushing. You know what I'm saying? Right. Don't look, the bag look forward because that's what she wants you to do. Right.

That's what she wants you to do. You know, keep pushing. That's legacy right there, man. Don't miss this hour. You don't get no money's ass. Boy, if you don't get your ass up and go out there and go get the shit money on the line

let me ask y'all a question as dope as this album is and I'm telling y'all this album is really really good it really is good you know we really appreciate that but let me ask y'all it's great man it's a great album as dope as this album is

how doper would it have been if Nate Dogg Let me ask y'all. It's good. It's great, man. It's a great album. That's dope what this album is. How doper would it have been if Nate Dogg was alive? Oh, that would have been totally different, man. Would have been a whole nother album. See here? Right? All right. All right. If Nate was alive.

Yeah. You understand me? He would have brought a whole other depth to the project. Real talk. Every album since Lake Pass would have been on that album. Right. Would have been. As long as you have $50,000.

As long as you have $50,000 Yeah you would be there But then After Fat Joe said Nigga yesterday's price ain't today's price If Nate Dogg was alive when he said that That $50,000 would have turned to $250,000 Fuck around with Nate Yeah give me the $250,000

And then Send a record to me After you send me the first payment. That's a good charge, though. You know what he call that? What? The homie price. Oh. Yeah, because, you know, really, my normal price is $500,000.

Hey, man, he was a hit maker at that time. Everything he touched. That's why they had them big budgets. They,000. Hey, man, he was a hitmaker at that time. Everything he touched. They had them big budgets. They was breaking it off. Everything he touched was a hit. And they said, look, I'm gonna give you $50,000 a song. Just give it to me there. And then that's the homie price. Well, what's the regular price, Nate? Oh, well,

you know, the regular price, you know, you can just give me $150,000 and I'll give you the works. I'm taking a shot today nigga they don't they dog did play no days I paid him fifty thousand girls are poor I'm ready I paid him fifty thousand every record didn't they want it you know you motherfucking right even though I made his number one record in his life. First number one. First number one. Never leave me alone.

Wow. Nate said, all right, Corrupt Man, these records are great. I love them. I need 50,000 each. I said, okay, cuz. I said, Nate, how much? 50,000 each, Corrupt, you know, and just get it out the way, and then let's go forward and shoot the video, okay?

I said, you know what, cuz? I got you. I hit the company. I said, cuz, give cuz his money. Stop bullshitting my nigga. Take care of Nate. Pay the man. You better pay the man. Don't you want the video, nigga?

Yeah. Wait. I didn't want the video, nigga? Mm. Wait. I didn't say the video was included. That's extra. I didn't think of that. He was real, nigga. And that's another $10,000 for the video, and I'll be there. I'll take care of my own flight.

I don't need nobody to fly me nowhere. I said, nigga, nigga. I was good about of my own flight. I don't need nobody to fly me nowhere. I said, this nigga naked. What's good about them budgets back then? Yeah, I love it. I love it. It was a different time. We got independent of Asia. Hey, Norah, you know about those budgets back then.

Oh, yeah. What? What? What? What? What? What? What?

What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What?

What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What?

What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What?

What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What?

What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What?

What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What?

What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What?

What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? man. Independent is too much for me, man. Yeah, but you're saying it for the different reasons. I love it that the fact that we were major... You took a shot without us. Come on, we here the whole time. I took a shot.

You want a sneaker shot? I took the shot because I answered the equation. But let me ask y'all this. A perfect world. Let's say nothing happened, right? Like what? Like the drama, all this crazy shit. What drama? Like the Tupac shit, right?

All this. Let's say none of that happened, right? What Tupac shit? I'm just saying. Hold on, hold on, hold on. And you made the same album today, and Tupac is alive, right? Which record you think on this album that Tupac would best fit on if Tupac was alive? I'm grown up.

I'm grown up? Yeah. You think Pac would have. I'm grown up? Yeah. You think Pac would've grew up by this time? Yeah. That's a fucking deep one. That's deep. Or the one with Will.

He would've been ill on that one, too. He was grown up then. Yeah. Ooh. Yeah, he was grown up then. He was teaching us things, you know what I'm saying?

Me and him, we used to hang together every day when he got out of jail, you know what I'm saying? Right. I was throwing them beats to him, you know, knocking all that shit. That's how

we acquired so much music together. So you did a business? All that type of shit. If Pac and Nate Dogg would have been alive, this record would have been even crazier. So, you know, it's always the wishes. You could have. You know what I'm saying? But we don't want no AI, though.

Nah, nah, nah, nah. I just heard a whole two Pac guys on the line. Nate Dogg, Aaliyah, and everybody else on there. What? Yeah. Really? Four Corners. Yeah, it was called Four Corners. But, you know, what do y'all think about the AI?

Nah, I don't think it should be reproduced. That new Nori song was hard, huh? The way Will.i.am is using it, I understand. No, Will.i.am, he articulated the way that we need to be worried about AI and how it needs to protect us. But them companies finna start hiring them dudes who are doing that AI and just taking them to another level. That's why everybody needs to learn AI so we don't get left behind. I mean, you got to rhyme like them. At least get that style together. Oh, shit. Shit. The AI is going to do behind. That means you got to rhyme like them. At least get that style together.

Oh, shit. Shit. The AI's going to do it. You don't need to rhyme like it. The AI's going to do it for you. So fucking lost. I was like that. I ain't never worked

shit before. Paul's a jigger. Tell Mark to tell me this. What? Okay. Evan, I need to know. Why has somebody got to learn something like this, bro?

Because if we don't learn, we're going to be left behind. We're going to all be left behind. Left behind of what? What, they're going to make more money than us? Fuck they're going to make. No, they're going to take over music. It's taking over music completely. Well, they're going to take it over because they're not us.

They're not Nori. They're not me. They're not Daz. They're not a person. But you ain't see the Spotify shit. They saying they starting to put AI music. Music, yeah. Shit that's made by AI.

Well, go ahead and let them do it, cuz. As long as they tech it. And the labels is behind it too, so they don't got to pay artists. We our own labels, cuz. Coming out the dead with it, huh? Yeah, crazy. New Whitney Houston now. No, no, it ain't going to be, not going to even be the dead.

It's going to be new artists, not even people. I'm just going to let it be. I'm going to let it be. Because, see, I'm not rolling, cuz. And I ain't rolling at all. They can do what the fuck they want, but I know this much. They can't take Norey unless Norey clears it. Now, let me ask you something else about AI, okay?

All right? Hold on, cuz. I got a real question I want to ask on Crib. How do we get paid? That's what Will.i.am was saying here. No, I'm asking you, cuz. How do we get paid? I don't know.

I'm not an expert. Shit. Will.i.am was an expert. Hey, I'm just asking you. And Will.i.am was saying We all gotta Everybody gotta own Their likeness Their voice

We can get paid You know what I'm saying Everybody gotta own that shit Hey, Nori What do you think about AI If we can get paid You ain't gonna get paid If AI is creating

A whole other song That's not even Anybody Man, they're for fucking That's just some bullshit That Spotify and them Going along with the shit Man, tell them

Son to me, bitch Like saying, you know Fuck y'all We just gonna make the money And all the other type of shit. Like saying, fuck us, you know what I'm saying? How do we get paid? Because this is the thing. They're saying that the actors union, the, what is it, SAG and all these different unions,

they've been fighting Hollywood, the movie side. They find them for AI, like to defend against AI. Music, musicians don't have a union that's fighting against AI. And that's the problem. That's what I'm hearing right now. Musicians don't have a union to fight against the AI

and these companies using AI. But it's different from them writing movies with the AI. Not really. Them using our voices. Well, no, but that's the thing.

They're going to not use the voices. That's the scary part about the music side. I mean, shit, I listen, but that's the thing. They're going to not use the voices. That's the scary part about the music side. I mean, shit, I listen to that shit all the time. You can't say it's a person unless it's their voice. Nah.

The AI makes a voice. And if it's too similar to Daz's... Nah, it won't. Right. And I ain't listening to it. All they got to do is change one octave. I don't listen to it.

And then the legal system is going to be like, that's not Daz. But it's not Daz, so it's irrelevant. I won't listening to it. All they got to do is change one octave. And then the legal system is going to be like, that's not Daz. But it's not Daz, so it's irrelevant. I wouldn't care about it if it ain't said like this. Hold on, cuz. Hold on. I want to know this, Delmar. So therefore, if they change the octave and it's not Daz, then they can't say it's Daz. They're not going to say it's Daz.

Yeah, but you see. So who gives a fuck? As long as it tastes like lemonade, but it might not be lemons. You know what I'm saying? Well, then you go on and buy the artificial intelligence. But that's what the future's going to do. Buy all this bullshit. Well, they've been buying it, nigga.

The faulty motherfucking chickens. The motherfucking chickens is as big as people. What the fuck is going on with that? They've been buying the lemons and shit. The lemons are the same size as motherfucking basketball. That's true. Nigga, you've been buying all the faulty shit anyway, cuz. And they're going to keep moving in that direction.

All right then, cuz. As long as you don't say it's Daz. Daz can't even, you know. Oh, it sounds like Daz. Who is it? It's Cass. Get the fuck out of here. Nobody want to hear that shit,

nigga. It ain't Dad's, cuz. It ain't nothing we should worry about. You worried about imitations? Let me tell you an imitation, cuz. I'll show you an imitation right here at this motherfucking table. Nigga, this is an imitation. This is an imitation cup. You understand

me? Because cups is glass. That's plastic. Get the fuck out of here. Watch this. Bow. Go. Yeah. And it's still in him, right? Because everybody wants the faulty and the fake. You know what's the great thing about drink champs and my brother

Nori? Let me show you what's great about us, cuz, cuz we was not on the same side at one time, cuz. We was actually enemies the same side at one time cuz we was actually enemies money you understand me and we still here today cuz it's family my nigga that's real cuz I know we talked about it on previous what you want to bring that up because I know we talked about it on previous episodes. I know, I know.

Previous episodes. But still. Take a shot. How crazy is it, though, that we got Dog Pound. Well, we don't got Capone today, but Capone was here before. Shout out to Capone. Shout out to Capone.

God damn it. Now, how full circle is that, though? Now, that's fire. And that Daz and Capone got an album together. But since we're going to bring up Connection Okay?

We going to freak it out. What? We going to freak it out. We going to freak it out. We going to freak it out. We going to freak it out. What? We gon' freak it out. We gon' freak it out. What? We gon' freak it out. We gon' freak it out. What? We gon' freak it out. We gon' what?

Yeah, by the way, I'll tell you one of my fondest memories is after they did New York, New York, LA, I remember me going to a radio station

and they're like, yo, they're not letting no, just the artists up. No other entourage. So it was your radio station too. You're looking at me because you know this is they lined me up. I walked through. I was like, oh shit.

They were all there. But in retrospect, they were all artists. So it was like no extra people there. And I remember that it was like the first time we kind of connected. It was in a LA fucking goddamn radio station. And then me and you kept speaking through

Inga. I remember, you know what I'm saying? Which is Foxy Brown for people who don't know. That's right. That's right. Goddamn it. Yeah, because Inga was there. Yeah. Motherfucking Inga's the one Where was we at In Reno Yeah

Reno Rivada That's right That's right And it was Something going on But anyhow Yes Anywho

The bottom line is Cause I said Cause there Me Nate Yup We was there with Inga Yup And then

Boom But me and Nori Always just wrote it out. Yeah. Since, I think that was the first time. Yeah. Was Reno. Yeah, yeah.

And then we just kept riding it out after. And then next thing you know, we did Corruption. Yeah. Stevie J. And he brought on that motherfucking Freak It Out. Okay, that's right. And Nori was like, I'm in. I'm in.

Boom. And he dropped that, we can freak it out. What? We can freak it out. I said, I'm in. I'm in. Boom. And he dropped that, we can freak it out. What? We can freak it out. I said, oh, cuz. I'm in there now, man. I am in there now, my nigga. Cuz I always loved Norrie.

Same here. You know, but it's like, you know, in life, you know, you be on opposite sides, like BG Knockout and Draster. Right. If you'll see him, we can freak it. I got Drasters in the video. Right. On my mama. Right. If you'll see him, we can freak it. I got Dracester's in the video. Right. On my mama.

Right. Which is from the Roofless Squad. And then me and BG Knockout, because BG Knockout was locked up during the time when he got home, because me and him became good friends. And Daz and all of us became good friends with them, even though, you know, the discrepancies. Right. So I want to give a clap and I want to bring it back

to hip hop. Hip hop. And the growth. The growth. You understand me? Because we've been all around this shit. Two niggas to me on that side. That's what's crazy about it. And people, when I say that to people, they're like, really? I'm like, that's my two niggas. Remember when you side Like that's what's crazy About it like And people

When I say that to people They be like really I'm like Remember when you came to L.A. Cuz Remember when you came to L.A. Cuz of the records Hey remember when you came to L.A.

Cuz And you hit me Y'all cuz Boop And I popped up at the hotel What's up cuz That's right You good

I ain't on my mama So many stories man I mean You know what I mean I appreciate I appreciate y'all friendship. But one thing for sure, two things for sure that I don't want to get sidetracked

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. The American West with Dan Flores is the latest show from the Meat Eater Podcast Network, hosted by me, writer and historian Dan Flores, and brought to you by Velvet Buck. This podcast looks at a West available nowhere else. Each episode, I'll be diving into some of the lesser-known histories of the West.

I'll then be joined in conversation by guests such as Western historian Dr. Randall Williams and best-selling author and Meat Eater founder Stephen Rinella. I'll correct my kids now and then where they'll say when cave people were here. And I'll say it seems like the Ice Age people that were here didn't have a real affinity for caves. So join me starting Tuesday, May 6th, 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.

what's going on no how does that make y'all feel in that type of environment but y'all understand what's going on No How does that make y'all feel in that type of environment? Y'all understand what's going on Oh totally Right

That's Compton Beach Long Beach That's what y'all look at it Like that's Compton Beach Cause it's not neighborhood business It ain't Long Beach business They out of people's business Cause it's 6-0

It ain't Long Beach business It ain't neighborhood business business. Stay out of people's business. Stay out of people's business because I'm six up. It ain't Long Beach business. It ain't neighborhood business. So it's like, ah, you let them be, but through life, they figure it out.

And then also, you realize who those people are to you in your life, like 8, and Chill, and Quick. But Chill's Compton, most wanted, what you mentioned, yeah. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? Quick, yeah. like 8 and Chill and Quick. Chill's Compton, Miss Wanda, what you mentioned. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? They are my family.

They all our family. Me and Daz, these are all our family guys, so we fuck with all of them. So, you know, when your family getting to it, you just gotta let them be. They'll figure it out. They're not correct. No, they did figure it out. Right. They figured it out. Am I correct? No, they did figure it out.

Am I correct? Yep. They have to figure it out. It's the law of the land. Yeah. They grew up from it, too. Queen business is queen business. Yeah, man.

That's what I thought. That's what I thought. Now, let me ask you a question right here, right? Let me ask you this question right here Let me ask you this question Right here Oh shit Is gangbanging The new

Why Cause everybody's gangbanging right now Yeah everybody's gangbanging What's that about? Oh. Not in Miami, though. That's my question asking you. Y'all, that shit is crazy.

I see it everywhere now. Like, I used to see it. Like, I used to laugh when I see it in New York. But, um. Not that many Crips in New York, though. Yeah, but now it's like like I'm used to it now. Now it's like. Back in the day.

That's what I'm saying. So sometimes I'll be like, yo, you know what? Well, it's like when hip hop went to the West Coast. But then this is a totally different thing because. Hip hop went world wide. Yeah. But when I see like. I see. I hear stories on Rikers island about rikers island and not only this gang banging on the island but even like the ceos on the island

are gang members yeah security in the club is gangbanging too yeah they're getting members and so it's like they're like you ain't coming to the club with that blue right had i would have ever had i would have ever thought that, if you would have asked me in the 90s, that there would be gangs in New York that originated in California. You'd have been like, nigga, you on drugs. I'd have been, yep.

I would have said, you on drugs. I would have said that. But now, it's like, I don't want to say 10, because I don't even know how, I don't want to put no years on it and be wrong. People be like, nigga, we've been out here since 84. And you can't forget, Chicago gang spread as well. Like down south, Chicago, like the folks and all that, that spread as well.

When you're working back in the days, when you're doing what you're doing back in the days, as far as moving to work and migrating out to different areas and stuff like that. Recruit. You know what I'm saying? That's the word. Recruit. Recruiting everybody wherever you go because you got the best. Shit is happening.

You know what I'm saying? So it just migrates. Some people stay there, have a family, it grows. But let me ask, let me put the question on y'all. Now you go to Seattle, Washington, and you know there's a crip gang do you do you reach out to them to we find out who they are when they start telling us where you're from okay so if they say they from long beach seattle you're like wait a minute because because because sometimes that happens right somebody from long beach could go could go to Seattle and get somebody in and have them rep a Long Beach gang, but they're not from Long Beach.

Is that something that... They probably got family from there. That's why we got people with us that's going to investigate. Okay, okay. To see which street they was on with gang and clans. It's a full investigation. You know what I'm saying? Authentic or some bullshit.

God damn it. Let's talk about Dog Eat Dog World. I know you spoke about that earlier. But you're out in the studio. Yeah. Tell me what happened in this situation. I mean, Dr. Dre come with the beat. We all dropped the lyrics. You know what happened in this situation. I mean, Dr. Dre come with the beat. We all dropped the lyrics.

You know what I'm saying? You know, we really just having fun in there. And that's it. I know we shoot the video because right now, don't nobody know who, they know our voices, but they don't know our faces. Right. You know what I'm saying?

So that going from 92 to 93, you know, everybody banging your shit. We can't even get in the club because they don't even know who we are. Get the fuck out of here. You know what I'm saying? Imagine your music banging. They playing your shit. You're like, motherfucker, that's me.

Yeah, fuck you. You ain't get in the club. And then Ice-T come out and get us in the club. You know what I'm saying? That's crazy. That's one of the drops. I told Daz when we did Doggy Dog World. I told Daz when we did Doggy Dog World. I told Daz when we did Doggy Dog World.

How many I'm not a big fan of it. Yo, it's pretty the motherfucker right now. There's so many people in New York. You got me there. No, that was a good one. That was pretty good. Is that right? That was real good. But if there's one thing that you was missing from the album,

besides Nate and Tupac, that you could have made better right now. Or Dre, too. I think Dre would have been... Don't give them the option for that. You need to win it. My bad, my bad. So if there was one thing that you could add to the album, who would it be?

Or what would it be? A Daz beat. A Daz beat? Yeah, no, that was... That would have been needed there. Okay. Yeah, but you know, we're going to get that on the next round.

That's funny you guys I believe I don't know if you produced it but you was on the record right with Method Man

Tupac yeah got my mind made up Redman oh now that record was for y'all at first? Yeah.

That's not America's Most Wanted? No. No. Corrupt had brought Method Man, Redman, Inspector Deck over to my house and Rage was over there already. So we had to put that record together and then I had dead or no ADATs. So three

tapes. And so I brought it to Dr. Dre House and they only put two tapes from real, you know, from ADAT to real. That's why I specced the deck. Because there's versions of that record. The background was on there.

So you specced the deck was on the original, not Tupac? Yeah, because there's joints that got leaked to mixtapes. Tupac wasn't on the original, it was Rage, so they took Rage off and put Tupac on this. Oh, wow. And so, but the A-Dec...

But Specter Deck is not on the record. And Specter Deck was on that third A-Dec, but they didn't have the third, and they lost the third A-Dec. So he never made the record. Yeah. Okay. But his background made the record.

Oh. You know what I'm saying? And that's why I told them, let's go get our money over there at Tupac's estate. You know what I'm saying? So that's why I told them, let's go get our money over there at Tupac's stake. You know what I'm saying? So, they ain't never got paid for that song.

and the song was born. Then the DOC got on there. Mm. Well, Snoop, me. That song was born with RBX finishing it off. Dr. Drake put that touch to it. Then French Montana and everybody else sampled it and put it in their song. You know what I'm saying?

And then Jay-Z wrote that song for Snoop and Dr. Drake. And he was my hook in there, If You Ain't Up On Things. I know he was thinking about me when he was listening to that serial killer writing that song. You know how you listen to people coincide with people. Shout out to Jay-Z.

Got it. Wait, wait. Ice Cube took you off? No, they told him to take Ice Cube off. Oh. You know what I'm saying? But I still got the first priority.

To get them records out Back in the days Shout out to Tower Records Back in the days You know what I'm saying Motherfuckers was everywhere Right Let me ask a question.

But can you answer the question first? What was your favorite label you was affiliated with? Both. Entra and Death Row. I remember you said that. Yeah. Death Row, Entra, you can't beat it. Now let me ask you a question because

when all this shit was going on, you know, Nori was young, CNN, we was the DPG, what was you doing? I was playing y'all motherfucking records. That's what the fuck I was doing.

I was a mixtape DJ. You was doing all of that during the 90s, like 94, 95? That's my prime DJ, yeah. That's your prime? Yeah. That's when I'm coming out. In Miami?

Coming out, yeah. In Miami? In Miami, yeah. So, let me ask this. I got the white labels of L.A., L.A. I want to ask this question because you're the man. How does it feel to be the fucking man

supporting these great guys that you're actually being around? Because like Nori and Daz and Corrupt and during that time you was DJing and Corrupt. And during that time, you was DJing and supporting us.

And now you have your own show with your boy. Right. You're absolutely right. How does that feel? It's crazy. Crazy, right? I'm just a, first I started as just a fan. And then I'm a DJ.

I get my turntables. I couldn't'm a DJ. I get my turntables. I couldn't afford turntables. I got turntables. Wait, what? At first, I had Gemini's. I had the DJ starter kit from the back of the Source magazine. Wait, that's a technique? No, no.

They were belt drives. They were belt drives. I had a wood pyramid DJ. And I thought I only was going to have this many records. I said, I wish I could just fill my crate. If I could just fill my crate. I'm an LDJ. And then I went on to start making mixtapes.

And then the record label sent me records. And then I started working for the record labels. Doing everything. This is the thing. I'm going to tell you about this situation. If you lose being a fan of the music, of the culture, if you lose

that, then you got no business being here. I heard somebody. You got no... I'm saying, so sometimes I'll bring vinyl and this and that. I got all my artifacts, man. I gives a fuck about this.

If you don't gives a fuck about this, then please, leave. Out of here. Get the fuck out the room. Nah, man. This is amazing to me, man. Me and him, I had a store. I had a record store. I started a hip-hop record store in my neighborhood just

to bring hip-hop to my neighborhood. He did an in-store and that's how we met. Yep. In 97, 98. That's how we all met doing in-stores. Yep, in-stores.

One stops. And that's how we met and we never stopped messing with each other. Yep. And that's how we're here today. That was the greatest thing back in the day

was the one stops. Oh, man. You know, going to different cities like that, going to the one stops and then everybody be in there waiting for you. You know what I'm saying?

And then that's how you get to town like that. You know what I'm saying? And then that's how we know about the independent game. Press your records up and go to them one-stops. But hold up, real quick. I just want to go back to everything we're talking about, though. At the end of the day, I think even for you guys, if we stop being fans of what we do. Yeah, you're right.

Fans of our legends. Yeah. Fans of the culture. Then the culture loses. You lose it all. Because what happens is there's a point where everybody's like, we too cool to be fans. I can't be a fan no more. I'm big.

I ain't shit. I'm the biggest DJ, biggest rapper. Who does that? A lot of people do that. That's what started to happen. Who? I mean, I can't tell you who. I'm just saying that the culture became outside of the culture.

It became mainstream. Well, you know who? I'll answer you for you. Instagram. Instagram made everyone. Instagram is not a who. That's the object. No, but it made everyone think that they're stars.

Let me tell you. It made everyone think that they're stars. Let me just tell you something. Yeah. All right, let me tell you something, big bro. Okay. Okay? Yeah., big bro. Okay. You don't. Okay, you don't.

And you don't. And I don't. That's four. Who else is relevant? Who else is relevant? This is ours.

This is ours, guys. It's our street. I'm not. I'm not. I'm just saying though, cuz. Time to deal with reality, man. It starts with us, cuz. Why y'all let these

people just do this? We not. That's why we here. No one cares, but everybody who cares. That's why we here right now. And you know what? I'm not a bad guy and I ain't mad at nobody else they ain't did nothing wrong to me

but I tell you this much I think Nori has more relevancy questions he wants to talk to us about besides what we're talking about no I love it I love it.

I love it because, because you know what? We love it. You know, the point is, the point is, we love everything. The point is to give y'all flowers for what y'all did then,

but the, the real point is today is to give y'all flowers for what y'all did for this new album. Yeah. What y'all did right now. That's right now

because, and what did they say? You know, what have you done for me lately, Eddie? You know what I mean? And that's how the hip hop is. But like they say, hip hop, you're only great at your last work. And this, y'all last work right now is a
