Let's punch this shit. But this is what I want to ask y'all. Because y'all was so popping Because y'all was so popping. Y'all was so popping. What made you want to put pun on your record at that time? We were just, it was, like I said, it was a mutual respect. You know, he was a big fan of ours. We thought he was amazing. You know, we hooked up a couple times, went up to his house.

It was just, like I told you, it was really just friends doing the record together. It was friends, mutual respect, doing the record together. It wasn't like, oh, yo, can I get on the record? Nothing like that. We was just like, let's do something crazy. So Tom was coming to Queens? No, he was coming to Brooklyn. You know, In Your Ear?

Yeah, In Your Ear. That's byville, right? He used to be all up in there. He used to come with his 9-milli, put it on top of his shit. Nah, he used to do it. He got his little notebook with him. They almost killed him in left front. When he did that, because he came out, he was like, yo, where's Papi at?

And nobody was like, no. Everybody was like, what? No, no he said where's nori at and they were like nope like at that time nobody nobody called me poppy so he pulled it out and then everybody said yo we're gonna kill this fat nigga and now i'm like oh shit i'm i come outside oh shit no you can't do nothing you can can't touch him. But, you guys was the first person to put him on his first feature. Yeah. I really need y'all

to get into depth. Nah. Of how, because you know why? Right. Because after that record, it was over, yeah.

It was over. Like, if you, if you, if you ask me, my personal solo career, it's, it's, in our solo career, it's...

You don't know your record? No. Super Doug. What's the shit? I'm leaving. I'm leaving. That's my shit. So the thing is

Capone was in jail He can't relate to it Capone was in jail Capone was in jail But But what I'm saying is Pun's record was Y'all record

Like when Pun came out on y'all shit It was over So did y'all wreck it. Like, when Pun came out on y'all shit, it was over. It was over, yeah. So did y'all know that? Nah, I think it was just destiny. Like I told you, man, it was just some friends getting together. I actually hated that record. I only rounded eight bars on it.

Off the books? Yeah, because listen. Who produced that? Who produced that? We were doing the Stone Crazy album, which is all dark. We had fucking Screwball on there. You know, like, it was a really dark album.

So, dude, it really stuck out like a sore thumb. Who made you do it? Whose idea was it to put pun on it? Let me tell you. Let me pick up on the story. Whose idea was it for Pun? Right? This nigga wasn't feeling the beat,

so we had another beat called Robbed and Stole, and it was fire, too. Fire, fire. Yeah, Pun said that. So we was like, fuck it, we're going to let Pun decide. So we drove to the Bronx. Pun was like, yo, I like Robbed and Stole, but if we do this one, we're going to the Bronx. Boom. Pong was like, yo, I like robbed and stole, but if we do this one, we're going to blow.

We're going to blow. He said it. He said it. Those were exact words. If we do this one, we're going to blow. Exact words. So I was like, I don't say no more. Exact words.

Jumping, yo, nigga didn't even fit in the minivan. He had to pull out the whole back seat. The whole back seat so he could just fucking lay in there. Yeah. Yeah, my man. Big shout to my man. Big shout to my nigga Suarez. Say it real. back seat. The whole back seat so he could just fucking lay in there. Big shout to my man. Big shout to my nigga Suarez. Make some noise. Everybody make some noise.

It was great. So which one of y'all taking it from here? I mean, after that it was a done deal. We went to the studio. And what studio was this? This was probably? Brooklyn, because we was initially recording. You went to Brooklyn?

No, we recorded. That was out of my house. You were recording in Brooklyn. Yeah. See, I was recording. That's a great point. Not like fall. Because, you know, they used to give us budgets back then for studios.

So instead of going to studios We bought equipment With that budget and we caught it out And we recorded it And it's Relativity We did all that shit ourselves Relativity And y'all know Relativity

So how How does this happen Because I imagine Fat Joe was sitting there saying, why do y'all want Pond? I think he was clueless to the fact that we were doing the record. Yeah, Fat Joe wasn't even in the picture. We were going straight with Pond. It wasn't like it was a big...

Make some noise for J.J.! Make some noise for J.J.! Yeah! He got J.J.! All right, y'all. Slow, slow, slow. Thank you, Jay James. Thanks so much. Alright. Alright, well. Salute, salute, salute. Thank you, thank you. Finally. Salute, salute, salute. I saw him do a bump love that shit. I love that shit. I love that shit. I love that shit. I love that shit.

Get outta here, go find my father's gun and beat somebody, you know what I'm saying? Oh! That's what I love. I love old school maniacs. Let's make some noise. Oh! Yo, the gang, the gang's usually so good.

Yeah, so I mean, honestly, you know what I'm saying? It was like, everybody was just kind of doing their thing at that time. So it was like, you know, I think career-wise, Pun was still, I don't know, he might have just got signed to Loud. There wasn't a lot going on. No, he didn't. He didn't. Y'all the reason, I'm going to be honest.

You're modest. And you're humble. And both of y'all are humble. Of course. But if y'all didn't do that record with Pun, Pun, that record actually made Pun get signed. Yeah. I'm sitting here, and I know you're humble.

At least, I'll say this. I got you. I'll say this. It saved Joe a lot of, you know, promotional effort. But if you don't know, that record right there is the record that made Pun get signed. Not Firewater, not all this other shit. That record.

Let's talk about this shit. Come on. Let's talk about this shit. Another thing, let me tell you. That chorus, we was all in the room thinking of a chorus. I remember we was thinking, so I'm going through my notebook because back then everything was chorus. I remember was thinking, so I'm going through my notebook because back then everything was notebooks. So I was like,

Did y'all know? And that's it. It was history after that. Did y'all know that that one record birthed a legend? Like, y'all birthed the Puerto Rican Biggie Swans. I'm happy to have been a part of his journey. I'm thinking about, I think he, like I said, he was going to be that. A monster regardless, you know. But we did throw some heat. It would have been, yo, what, what?

Yo, punk, make it happen. I mean, you know. He was going to do it regardless. He was going to do it regardless, but we did throw him some fire. Under the wood, you know. That's a classic record. Oh, yeah. Let's make some noise.

Time to move to the next one. So, after all the books, you guys are still signed to Loud, correct? Yeah. No, with Jay. I gotta ask you to relax. We're still on Relativity. Relativity.

At that time, yeah. And now Relativity, because Relativity is a very interesting label. Yeah, they were independent. You know, started in Hollis, Queens. It was an independent label. That was like the real... It was straight up hardcore hip-hop.

giving our legends flowers when they can smell it. That's great. I love that. And trees when they can inhale it. Yeah, absolutely. And I think we should. Yeah, we should. And we should do that. So, Psycho Less, Juju, we want you to know that you guys are appreciated.

Thank you. I'm fucking psyched to be up here. Because, you know, everybody's know everybody's like I can't wait to hear the beat nuts up there but you know they get you know from fucking bullshit reads you know I'm saying like you know you know cuz you know what it is up there. They're like, yeah, with Nari and Juju, that shit's going to be... I want to get invited by the show, though. But here's the deal. I don't want to do it because everybody's saying you should do it.

Here's the deal. I just want you to know, because the one thing that I felt like you didn't know was when I seen there and I felt like you felt like you felt like you would be privileged to come on

and I am and I gotta tell you to relax because you know why I'm honored let me finish I told you you have no idea we have a lot of money

come on man we inspire each other man we inspire each other You have no idea. We have a lot of money. Come on, man. We inspire each other, man. We inspire each other. Can I finish now? Just so you know that. You're just as much of an idiot. If there was not Pete Nuts,

there would not have been a Capone and Norrie. And let me tell you, there would be no Pete Nuts still if it wasn't for Capone and Aurier dropping by the Herd. Fair enough. Thank you. If there wasn't no Beatnuts, there wouldn't be a J-Lo on the block. Factory. I like that.

And I wanted to ask about that. Did y'all get those royalties off of that? J-Lo on the block. That's a fact. Zero. J-Lo. No. Was it because of Sam? Was it because of Sam? Because Jack did us dirty on that block, that's a fact. Zero. J-Lo. No. Because of the sample?

Because of the sample? Because Jack did his dirty on that. Whatever. Ain't no whatever. The best form of flattery is imitation. Go in. Tell us, man. We want to know.

You know whatever. That young producer on the block violated? The best form of flattery is imitation. I mean, we dropped that song, what year was that? 94? Probably. It was like 2000. But anyway, but I don't know. It was like 2000.

But anyway, two years later, she drops her shit. And it was a lot of fun. They bit, right? We clear on that. Biters. I seen that. They bit. Yo, but hold on.

Not even a shout out. Like, yo, shout out Beat Nuts for inspiring the idea. Give me a shout shout for the idea. We gave you the idea to flip that. She thought that was a punk record. She might have thought that was really punk record. Like, for real. But at the end of the day, this is going to make her realize right here that that was y'all record.

This is the interview right here. Did she watch? I think she hates us already. Yeah, she, you know. You got to do a little cover. She gets love. Nah, man, I love what she's done. She's got to read on that.

She's great. But in a way, in a way, in a way, it's not really her fault. Like, I don't even blame her. I blame the producer. I blame the producer for biting the shit. Who's the producer? Corey Rooney.

But you made the beat though, right? For real, huh? It was the same set. Yeah, that's my beat. It was inspired by their music. I was on the phone talking. I was like, yo, what? I'm going to come to the studio

and see you, nigga. This shit was like inspired by the street jazz. Oh, so it was me. I told him. He was going back to the studio. It was me and Corey. You know why? Because his, check this he. I don't know. He was going back to his place. He was beating me and Kobe. You know why?

Why? Because his, check this out. His lawyer, yo, his lawyer was my lawyer. Yo, I don't want to get shot going downstairs. Ain't nobody going to get shot. Why would you get shot? Is this live? I don't know.

I got money to beat nuts here. You don't worry, man. I know where this is going. I've seen these niggas show. Before you get too tired. I ain't tired.

I want to thank you. I want to thank you. I want to thank you for having us, man. Let me tell you something. Really, I don't think you have any idea how much it means to me. No, I don't think you have any idea how much to beat nuts. Because it's been a lot of years. No, no, no. I don't think you have any idea how much to beat nuts. It's been a lot of years. No, no, no.

I don't think you have any idea how much... It's been a lot of years. It's my show. I don't think you have any idea how much to beat nuts mean to us. Fact. Thank you.

For people who don't understand, we never heard a big pun until we heard a hip on the Beat Nuts record. Damn right! That's what I said. That's what a backhanded compliment sounds like. I'm about to tell you to get the fuck out.

Because I'm not playing. Everything I just said, said is from the heart. It's from the heart. I feel you. When we heard Big Pun, and then we heard him on y'all record, and then we heard him, and then we heard that you guys actually embraced him. After the record, you guys actually embraced him. After the record, you guys put him on your record.

I tried to embrace him a lot of times. It's kind of hard to get my arms around him. Whatever. I'm trying to add a little levity. But at the end of the day, that's what hip-hop respects. Hip-hop respects that we brought Big Pun out. She was iconic to me. Everything I did prior to that is... No, no, no.

That's not true. That's not true. We've been saying that. I just want to get our wording right. That's no classic. I want to get our wording right. No. Your production, y'all's production is...

I know I'm amazing. Please, you think I'm weird. I come here for you to tell me I know I'm amazing. There you you think I'm weird. I come here for you to tell me I know I'm amazing. There you go. There you go. You needed the Jameson to tell you that. No, but... What I'm trying to say...

I needed the Jameson to... No, no, to unleash, you know... Unleash the juju. No, because I'm humble to a fault sometimes. I like the Jameson. No, but... Can I... Can I tell you this? I drink only because it makes other people more interesting,

not because I need it to be anything. That's a lie. I don't know. Sometimes. No, no, no. That's our alcoholic perspective. That is the truth. I love the alcohol, if you say so.

Like, no. Because I don't just. Like, nah. This ain't a tooth. We got to be honest with ourselves. I'm actually more dangerous when I'm not fucking drinking. To be honest with you. Why is that? Because I don't really have a lot of patience. You know where we come from.

You know what our shit is. But one of the first things that I see when I'm not drinking. This shit makes me impatient. You told me something about tragedy. I was going to deal with a bunch of shit that I wouldn't generally deal with. You told me something about tragedy. The first thing on my FaceTime. I didn't say at all.

What? I couldn't understand. What was that? I don't know. No. No, you said I said it. No, I had FaceTimed you. Yeah.

And then you told me something about tragedy. I had no idea what you said. So if you ain't had no idea, I don't remember. I don't remember saying anything about T. That's good. Because it was me and Mayer hanging out. Yep. Oh, oh.

Okay, I do remember what I said about T. Go ahead. That was, oh, because I was telling you that all I ever wanted to do was be too fine. Woo. Nice. Good memory, good memory. I did say that. Because I said all I ever wanted to do is be too far.

You know what I'm saying? Because, yo, like, see what he said? Like, I'm saying, I said that shit earlier. Niggas, just as much as he's saying all this shit, if it wasn't for Beat Nuts, there wouldn't be no Capone nor Riega. Thunder Mouse. My dudes, the feeling is mutual.

Nah, it's not. Yo, son, here's a drink to all the girls who act sting. Shady niggas just react. We don't think. For real. Spill out my whole life and ink. Make the world into heartbeat. Sons that don't play.

Who's that? Who's that? Fabu. But listen. Who's that? You hear that? Fat Joe. And my that? Fadjo. And my nigga Trags, trust me, me and my nigga Trags went through.

No, but listen. The worst. Listen, listen. And I told him that. And that night I told him that. I told him, I'm too five now, even though the handshake. Here we go. What's up? What's up?

Hi, I'm Sarah Spain, host of Good Game with Sarah Spain, and the co-author of the new book, Runs in the Family, an incredible true story of football, fatherhood, and belonging, written with and about Las Vegas Raiders running backs coach, Dylan McCullough.

Based on the viral ESPN story I did a few years ago, this book will blow your mind and bring you to tears.
