If you grew up in the 90s and you were shooting niggas in the 90s, you're going to No, no, not about weed, but there's a certain thing of joints and blunts. Right. If you grew up in the 90s and you were shooting niggas in the 90s, you want to stick with blunts. Blunts, yeah. Philly blunts. Buddy Masters. Is that fucked up? You know why?

You know what we forget? Snoop's album. Snoop said to keep that blunt in your back pocket because Doggy Dog Was all about the zig zag smoke Which is the white boys 1993 When I didn't even know Exactly what the fuck That was

I'm like yeah It's the papers Yeah so And I've had that argument With Dog himself Because he like Yo yo Chill out

Chill out I'm the Gatorade Cops I just told you And I smoke blunts And he's like Nah dog You originally said To keep the blunts In it's like, nah, you originally said to keep the blunts

in your pocket. So what's that right there? I had to call him out on that shit. That's the raw cones. This is a paper right here. This is straight up called right here.

This revolutionized it like not having to roll it. I disagree with you but continue. And stuff the weed down. That's a game changer. You know what's one of the worst things

I've seen on the internet? And it's not you. It was your boy Wiz Khalifa. Okay. And he kicked a dude out of his session for smoking a blunt. I was offended. I'll tell you what. Studio session.

Yeah, studio session. Not a smoke out session. I never was that militant. You ain't that militant. What's your homeboy name? Cornerboy. Yeah. That's my nigga.

That's my boy for years and years and years but he's like nah don't smoke a balloon I'm like that's not what I do so I can't do it you know I haven't smoked one in so long I'm sure or something medical what happened yeah you bugging out so you just mentioned Wayne right now it immediately brings me to you being signed to the 504 Boys. You being signed to Cash Money. You being signed to also Young Money, correct?

One of the first signings to Young Money. Before we go any further, if you see right here, there's a Surgeon General warning. Yeah, yeah. He's serious about this. He's serious about this shit. The government is concerned about you smoking. But did you see the footage when Wiz kicked the dude out? I don't know about that.

I don't like that. What I know about this is this is a pack of papers. Let me look at that. There's no surgeon joining? The surgeon general is not concerned that I made that. It's certified organic. The government is like, yo. Does he have a point?

They lied to him on my podcast. They said it's a hooker. They said it's a Kmart. Oh, fuck. Come on, Curvacy. You're making me learn shit. Oh, fuck. I'm fucking crazy. Oh, fuck. Come on, Curves. You making me learn shit. Yeah, I'm just telling you.

We don't want to learn shit in here. I'm just saying, not one pack of paper. Zigzag, Easy Wireless. But how does a guy from New Orleans even become a stoner? Because you guys are known for killing people. Yeah, well, that's a stressful situation. Every time I've been to New Orleans back in the days, you guys were killing somebody. Even on the strip, it gets crazy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Even your coffins is above ground, because there's gonna be more coffins. It's a fact. The ghost is still killing motherfuckers. Well, I think that's how I found a relationship with really good weed, you know what I'm saying? Because it settled everything, you know what I'm saying? You can't really sit up

and think about what's going on that much. I'm trying to smoke it off. And then you realize that it's better on that end than the other end and you're never sober again. And that's just that. And were you ever signed a Master P? Was that? Yeah.

How are you the guy that signed a Master P and cash money? I did it all, you know, in good spirit, you know, in each situation. Good choice of words. Yeah, man. Each company. Are we going to make some noise for good spirit? Yeah, make some noise for good spirit.

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. Listen to the American West with Dan Flores on the

iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And it's going to take us to heal us. It's Mental Health Awareness Month, and on a recent episode of Just Heal with Dr. J, the incomparable Taraji P. Henson stopped by to discuss how she's discovered peace on her journey. So what I'm hearing you saying is healing is a part of us also reconnecting to our childhood in some sort. You said I look how youthful I look because I never let that little girl inside of me

die. I go outside and run outside with the dogs. I still play like a kid. I laugh, you know, I love jokes. I love funny. I love laughing. I laugh at myself. I don't take myself too seriously. That's the stuff that keeps you young and stops you from being so hard. To hear this and more things on the journey of healing, you can listen to Just Heal with Dr. J from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

You see what's happening I'm still good But you're gonna hear me You were signed To Cash Money Thank you bro And No Limit

At one point That happened But at the height of that beef. They revolutionized indie games. When it was beef. You know, it never was. That's what I'm trying to say. Yeah, nothing happened, but.

There was never. Check it out. That's why I asked you the project. You remember? Because it was the Calio against the Magnolia. Yeah, but they had nothing to do with that. So Calio and Magnolia was already at war. That was just on some other shit.

Other shit. Regular street shit. But P repped it. It was for Calio. And then Baby repped. He was in front of Magnolia. But he fucked with them. Yeah.

But P was on the West Coast for a while, too. Yeah, he was in Richmond. Yeah. Yeah, no, I'm talking about when it's in New Orleans. Yeah, but no, that wasn't even, it wasn't that. Because they never did a record together. I know, it's madness. Right.

And they still to this day, like, they might be in the same club, say what's up, but. Yeah. Is that deeply rooted in some hood shit? Is that, is there some deep. It's got to be something that I'm not even old enough to know. Because I've been around, like, everything. You know what I'm saying? And I've never been, like,. You know what I'm saying?

And I've never been like a little nigga who was out the loop. I always was in the loop. You know what I'm saying? And I never got that part of the game not once. Like why this never happened?

Because as kids... You think it's deeper than rap though? It has to be. Like some shit. You know what I'm saying? Because there's nothing we know. Because as kids me and Wayne wasn't that tight. Right. You know what I'm saying? Because there's nothing we know. Because as kids,

me and Wayne wasn't that tight. Right. And we ain't know why. Because y'all from opposite projects. When I was on Young Money, we talked about it. He was like, bro, he was like,

like I thought you was cool, but fucking, I don't know, I couldn't fuck with you. I'm like, yeah, I know. Because you're on the other side. Yeah, but we ain't even know why. It's just like,

well, I'm pretty sure C-Merida don't want me chilling with you. And like, well, I'm pretty sure C-Murder don't want me chilling with you. And he was like, I'm pretty sure a fucking juvenile don't want me hanging out with you. And fucking, that was just two little niggas not fucking with each other for nothing until they got a little bit older. And that's how we clicked and did all that shit that fast. And was you also signed to TRU too? On C-Murder? Yeah.

When he was trying to put it together, like, that's how I got to No Limit. Like, both situations, it was just, with No Limit, it was because of C-Murder. That was my homie. And with Cash Money, it was Wayne, it was like, well, trying to put Young Money together at that time,

and then was like, he not wanting to fuck my shit up because he trying to build something. So he like, we're going to have to do this with them, you know what I'm saying, to make sure it be right. So that's how it was at Young Money Cash or anything. That was him just trying to make sure that I got the look I was supposed to get. But through it all, even when they set up where the cash at and all that shit,

and it was fucking turning into, like, something not underground, like what I wanted to do, you know what I'm saying? When I saw what was about to happen, I just was like, all right, I'm not fucking with it. Like, nothing happened. I just was like, with all due respect, y'all could put that energy into something else. I don't want to do that because I saw it, you know? So then when was the moment Because alright

You got Young Money They just started now Right You leave They explode Like I don't know how many years later And then you explode But you explode on your own

Because of the components And the way it was built But It wasn't what I tried to shy away from because that's actually my partners. I smoke with them

of the record, I think the fans was like. Yeah, I know. Crazy. But I rap about chicks all the time. It's just that

August, August had that, you know what time. It's just that August had that. You know what I'm saying? Once he came with that, it was like, yo, what's going on? He was the Trey Songz. A noir. I can't help the fact that my friends are successful. You know what I'm saying? And it seemed like a mainstream record because they happened to be mainstream

We got plenty of Gatorade cups. I really would rather get a drink champs cup. Sonny, you know, he spoke theatorade. I don't want to make me in charge. We got plenty of Gatorade cups. I really would rather. He spoke the sports authority. We foul. Currency. I don't know. We're not Hot 97 over here. Sorry. We're Hot 97.

Some, nothing. Why did you say that? Because I asked for more cups? Yeah, yeah. Foul is good over here. Because I asked for drink champs cups? No, no, no. Damn, I didn't understand.

I don't understand what you're saying. There isn't no Drink Champs. No more shots. No, there isn't no Drink Champs cups. No, no, that's why we keep doing shots. Yeah, yeah, that's why we keep doing shots. That's why we keep going. He's done.

It goes down. He's done. I like how this works. The more we regret, the better for the show. He's spiraling out of control. Chris Boss left those cups over there. I see it. I want to see it. Let's go.

So E, you got something wrong? I want to know the influences like early on, the music, because obviously you don't sound

typical New Orleans. Dig it. Well, well in New Orleans, we didn't really have like too many outlets for you to know like who was doing music.

So I was getting my shit from tv anyway so it was like um like a lot of everything snoop did everything that came out of the west coast during the 90s and shit like did you guys have the box back in the way because that in miami we had the box and that's where we get a lot of our music we had the box but dj quick ran the box whoever was paying you had to watch that video like three or four times. You know what I'm saying? So all of that was on.

When Snoop Numb was cracking, that's when I was looking at getting my music from the TV. So that's where everything came from. That might be why I just smoke weed and just chill out all day long. You know what I'm saying? Makes sense. It's all good. He's from the murder capital. Let's just make some noise for being from the murder capital.

Hey, man. You want to celebrate something about the town? Nah, you got the best catfish I ever had in my life. There's some food there. Amazing food. Mardi Gras. Where's Mardi Gras? It's Mardi Gras every day.

It's like the Puerto Rican Day Parade. Is it every day the same year? No. Mardi Gras? No. Y'all changing. No. I don't know how they make it. But they do something every day for the tourists.

I don't know. It's like the first Tuesday or the last Tuesday of some shit. I don't know how it works. Come on, Karen. See? Come on. I don't know because I stopped going because you get your shoes messed up. Wait.

Oh, your Jordans. Because people at the parades and shit. As soon as I was old enough to tell my mom I didn't want to go to the parades no more, that was the end of Mardi Gras for me. They bring you to buy shoes and then your shoes get murdered at the old man. I bet that happens at drink champs. Yes, it does. So, fucking, nah, not really

too much, man. So you don't even know what day Monty Grimes. There's titties out. We got a spot downtown. There's titties out for sure. If you got beads, you can fucking get titties for just dangling the beads. They'll trade you their boobs for the beads. You know what I'm saying?

And that's cool. I haven't really participated in the parades, but I've traded beads for boobs just in walking to get a drink. So I've got to ask you, between all your deals, right? You've been with cash money. You've been with Cash Money. You've been with No Limit. That's two. You've been with Universal for a second. Yeah, but that was part of Cash Money.

Well, that was part of Cash Money, yeah. I'm just saying that because you said it all. I worked on like 19 record labels. No, no. It's two. I've been fucking a lot of record labels for a lot of years. It's been a couple of years. Yeah, but...

What was your favorite CEO? Like, your favorite person? We ask that to everyone. C-Murdo. Oh, shit. C-Murdo. That's crazy. Yo, I would say, yo,

that was my first record. Now, everybody fucking make noise for C-Murdo. Make some noise. Let's come on up. You know what's crazy? What's crazy is that Fucking make noise for C-Murda. Make some noise. Come on. You know what's crazy? What's crazy is we don't do this on purpose, but it seems like we do a show with somebody, and they bring up something or a person.

And the next show we do, organically, that same person comes up again. And that just happened with 2 Chainz. All right, dig it. Yeah, man. I really didn't like that situation. Right. How that went down, man. And I think that it only happened because my mans is in there, in that situation.

So we went to the side. That's the only reason why I was even near Jordan, because he had everybody away from him, which is real shit. We walk in. We get the guys. And now, mind you, we're smacking everybody's drinks in their hands. Because it's free. It's a death ban.

So everybody we walk to, we're like, what's up, my nigga? That's a great part of the story. I love that shit. We're like, what's up, my nigga? They're like, what up? Bang! Like, oh! The nigga's like, yo, this is Chris Dow. Go back to the bar, nigga.

I've always been drunk when I said this story. Green Chaps. And when the nigga leaned over, I seen the actual movement. The nigga leaned over and was like, yo, such and such. And that nigga said, fuck rap. I was like, oh. It's like your father saying, fuck your mother. Fuck rap.

That he don't even know who Nori is, and he was never even at that party. Okay, currency. You're my brother. But I might forget tomorrow. Oh, no, is and he was never even at that party. Okay, Currency, you're my brother. But I might forget tomorrow. Oh, no, wait, there was one more thing I had to say. He said he loves rap. No, no, no. He said he loves all music. No, he never said he loves rap.

All music includes rap. Right, no, he said he loves all music. He said he likes Nelly or some shit. Because remember, Jalen Rose said he never said he loves rap. But he said he likes Nelly or some shit. Because remember, Jalen Rose said he never said he loves rap. But he said he loves all music. He never said he loves rap. Then he said he wasn't at this party.

That's crazy. Listen, Currency, I might forget tomorrow. You know you sound like a drug, bro. You my nigga. Fat Joe is my nigga. But when I hang out with y'all, y'all my peers. I'm going to forget tomorrow.

I smoke a lot of weed. I ain't never forget it when I fucking bump into fucking Michael fucking Jordan. So I had this already ready. I couldn't believe

I was befuddled. I was befuddled. Damn. I couldn't believe I was befuddled. Make some noise for being befuddled. Make some noise for being befuddled. And he actually responded back. This is harder than historic. This is way harder.

It's current now. This just happened now where they rebuttaled. But guess what I did? They rebuttaled. But guess what I did? They rebuttaled it. But guess what I did? Once I threw out the picture, ESPN picked up my story. Is this correct? Yeah.

And I don't know who homie was on. Jalen Rose. I don't know about that shit. What picture? What picture? What picture? What picture? No, I showed out a picture of Michael Jordan coming out of the party.

Did he say something? Yeah, he did. He did say that he liked rap. He did because homie that was on ESPN said, how are you going to say you like rap and you don't know who Nori is? Capone and Noriega Nori. Shame on you. I think.

Shame on you, Michael Jordan. You're misinterpreting the story. No, I'm not. This is what he said. Well, not he, the publicist. He said... I remember the footage because I watched it.

They just sent those tens to me. 30,000 times. I know you did because that's what you do. I tell you what, Jordan Brand, you know,

just clean up your act. No, I'm still rocking in kicks. I got them on right now. They send me shit early now again. You know, they stopped fucking with me. Are you hot again? They stopped fucking with me. That's what you told me.

And we don't have them on the podcast. When you're not hot, they don't send you shit. Well, I was talking shit because they weren't making them right. Tell them. Talk about it. The leather was different. It looked just like the knockoff. I think that, you know, my theory was that when they found the factory that was knocking them off, they was like, okay, let's stop.

Let's keep using them. Okay, but here y'all go. Now make them, and they just put that shit in the footlocker. That's why our motherfucking shoes was exploding on the court. You remember that shit? I also heard. I also heard. And when you first started hanging out with Wiz Khalifa, his feet weren't right.

Yeah. His feet weren't right. What does that mean? That's what I'm running. And he'll say it. Because Charlie's kid is probably one of those guys. He flew to New Orleans. When he came to kick it, I was like, yo, we got to go and get some shoes.

Let's go get some shit. We went and got some like pippins and shit like that. Then when we went to New York Brung him to the flight club And I was like This is what all the old John Wow Cause what was he wearing

Before that He was like Totally Taylor gang And that's cool to wear Chucks That's cool He was wearing Converse And that's fine

But I was like Just add this Cause this This is totally important You know what I'm saying Yeah So So his feet game

Wasn't right Let's make some noise For Wiz Khalifa Feet game not being right I thought you were gonna say He needed a pedicure or something Come on You gotta keep it real

Yeah well I mean He definitely He said it He said it before He said it in the interview You know what I'm saying I think you should take one I think you should take one

For the fact That he stated that before Yeah you should take one That I put him on that shit It don't happen like that No no Actually You should take one for the fact that he stated that before. Yeah, you should take one. That I put him on that shit. It don't happen like that. No, no. Actually, you should take one. So you should probably take one.

I didn't know that I would be drunk. We had to because I don't smoke. You're one of the smartest niggas we met.

When we opened this, I was like, I got that all day. They don't know I'll drink all of these right here and fucking write an essay for these niggas. We do that to comfort zone. They don't even know. drink all of these right here and fucking write an essay for these guys. We do that to comfort zone. They don't even know. But then you did this.

You know, BG backed up right now. So BG's son, TY, I got him signed to Jet Life, and we're about to put together a couple projects on him and try and take over shit. That's what I'm focusing on right now. And that's the next project for? Yeah, well, that, I mean, outside anything I do, that's, you know, that's automatic.

But I'm focusing on taking care of the T.Y. Carnivore situations and putting out retail projects on them. You know what I'm saying? And that's Wood Atlantic or on your own? No, that's just Jet Life. That's just me. Okay. That's just me. Okay. That's just us.

That's us. So are you satisfied with Atlantic or you want to say fuck somebody up there? It's okay. This is on Dream Chats Podcast. Yo, honestly, bro, I'll say this. With this last project, that was clear. You know what I'm saying? They saw that I did something that that

they wanted me to do even though I was the single yeah we didn't have that conversation but just in me knowing some people that was super famous I ended up doing something else and so when I did that they showed up and they did some things you know saying but me I'm underground artists and I'm saying? But me, I'm an underground artist. You thrive there. Yeah, I'm more comfortable just doing, you know what I'm saying? Like, yeah, for sure being independent. But you can be

an independent artist and have an independent following, even if you're mainstream. Like, Talia Kweli was signed to Atlantic for a while, too. That's even why I figured it would be alright. How did you build that cult following? Just not switching up, bro. What's even why I figured it would be all right. But how did you build that cult following? Like, I went... Just not switching up, bro.

What was it? Revolutions you had? I just never switched. I went there. I went and seen you. And they out there. Crazy. Crazy.

All the words. Just in never switching and putting out a lot of music for free. Being consistent. Being consistent is key. Yeah, like right now I'm putting out a tape

every month. And that's what I did now, I'm putting out a tape every month. And that's what I did back in 2008. I did a song with you one time using Circle House. And I was like, yo, when the song come out? That nigga said, no, that shit came out six months ago. It was out that night.

I'm like, that shit out. I'm going to get my man to miss my verse. I'm like, what? That shit is out, boy. Niggas love that shit. Yo, you don't trip my ass. Come on. Yeah, I don't have no time for that.

That shit was out. That shit was out. That shit was out. That shit was out. That shit was out. That shit was out. That shit was out. Yo, I ain't going to lie.

You taught, you, you, hold on, hold on, hold on. God, my, my daddy. How's the homie Sam Cresswell treating you at Atlanta? That's our homie. That's our homie. Well, dude, don't know if I met the guy. Oh, damn. You know, not on this previous project.

I don't know if he had a hand in it. Nah, he run radio. Thanks a lot. He does the radio stuff. Sam Cress was great. Probably brought me through a few radio stations. Probably drove me around the head and I smoked out a fucking rental truck. Because that's not your thing, like radio.

And so he probably knows that I probably don't remember. Right. Yeah. So again, I'm always weirded out on my way to radio because I think it's going to be like some stuffy situation.

He's probably back there trying to fucking get healthy. That's what's going on with that. Yeah, that's because there's a warning on this shit. And that's what did it.

See, the only reason that I said Smoke Champs was because if you can go to Snoop's Instagram and comb through it, just get the forensics team on it and comb through it. He posted a picture of me and him against a wall once smoking. And he was like, every time I go to pass you a joint, you're already lighting another one.

It just doesn't apply. Not at all. I'm sorry, up. I'm sorry. No, the word is real. It just doesn't apply. It just doesn't apply. Not at all.

No, not this time. I'm not lying. No, no, no. But wait. Let's make some noise for us cracking 2 million fucking views. I saw that online. We had 800,000 for the week. And we had 200,000 plus for the month.

Hey, yo, stop downplaying us. No, no. I'm humble. I'm humble, man. Yo, Charles. Listen. When he ain't give you the shirt, we're about to jump this nigga. Jump me.

I'll shoot. I'll shoot. I'll shoot. Let's make some noise. Don't let the great be a fool. Yeah, yeah. Let's make some noise for us cracking. What happened? Two million.

At least 2.2 million. He made the great shirt. 2.2. 2.2. So let's say 2.2. Yeah, 2.2. 2.2. God damn it.

Make some noise. We're number one on CBS Four weeks in a row Number one on CBS For the whole month Hold on, hold on Explain to that man Wait, I'm giving him the stats We beat 60 minutes, nigga

Well, yeah So I don't even know what that nigga name is That whole 60 minutes Yeah Tell that nigga he finished So we had That's serious

Fuck him I'm sorry I'm sorry That ain't me So we had 850,000 plus For this past week. Word. No, no, no.

Not 2 Chainz. From the Memphis Bleak episode. But I mean, it's collective, all our episodes, all listens. And then we had over 2.2 million for the month. We were number one on all CBS. Not just CBS. iTunes. No, no, no.

All CBS. Music category. No, no. Music category. We've been number one on iTunes for the past four weeks. Yes. Yeah.

Make some noise for that, son of a bitch. Yeah, you start the clap. Yeah, that's major, bro. That's major. That's real shit. I'm honored to be on here to kick it, man.

And some of the unorthodox shit as you can see. Yeah, that's tight, man. That you would share this with me, that's a fucking big audience, you know, that you would fucking even like share that light with me.

Nah, this is for you. It's for you. Nah, it's playa, bro. I just came to smoke a joint with you and just fuck around. So that's cool. You ended up drinking a couple shots while you were at it. Possibly two million. Why do you got rubber all over your lighter?

I don't understand. This is a wick. What does that mean? That sounds like some brujeria shit. That's some hippie shit. You want some brujeria? I was thinking New Orleans, Belize, and brujería. This is to remove the chance of you using this butane that's in this big lighter.

That's why sometimes I have a clipper, you know those clipper lighters that don't have the butane in it? So if you light it, if you light the wick, you know what I'm saying? Oh, you don't get that feel. Light this, and then you light the wick off the wick. I get it. And then that way you not. Because if you breathe in when you're doing this, you're putting that butane shit right into your body. That's what you got to do when you smoke.

I don't mean to get all preachy on you all the time. The butane's what lights it, but you don't want that fumes. I know you would fucking do shots of butane and fucking eat tobacco. That's cool. You know what I'm saying? I'm just trying to help. I hope they're dead. I'm trying to help a little bit, bro.

It's all good. Just stick around for a little while. That's all I'm saying. I still just trying to help. I hope they're dead. It's all good. Just stick around for a little while. I still have no idea why he got rubber on his lighter. But that's currency. He's from New Orleans. I've always laid it out. They kill people every day. All I did was come through the day and lay it out. No, you didn't. In New Orleans, they kill people every day.

People, you know, the rats. But he defends all the killings. Yo, hey man. Perfect attorney. It's all, it's, the rats. But he defends all the killings. Yo, hey, man. Perfect attorney. It's never for nothing. It's not like, you know, I got a lot of respect for what happens in L.A. because I low ride out there. I ship my cars out there.

I ride around. I know that it's like where people want to ride with is certain gas stations we can't stop at. You know what I'm saying? And all that shit is a real thing. You know what I'm saying? And all that shit is a real thing. You know what I'm saying? So I understand that. New Orleans is not like that, where it's like you got on the wrong shirt,

sold, fucking boom, boom, boom. Out there, it's like something happened. But it's just so much shit happening all the time. You know what I'm saying? It's just crazy that we take it, that they take it to that level. But it's always because of something. You're not going to come to New Orleans and just get killed.

It's different. Because you went to the parade. It depends on what you're at. But you know what? You're not going to get killed because you went to the parade. With that being said, before we end it. You did something. You know what I'm saying?

You did something. You got smoked up. Before we end it, totally out. Right? I'm going to. You see what's going on? The butane. See?

So now, it's not there now. The fire is different now. I ain't going to lie. You Illuminati. Nah, I'm totally not Illuminati. That was all Illuminati right there. Nah, man. Yeah, that was all Illuminati.

The butane is Illuminati. The butane is the poison. The butane is gas, man. You're just breathing that shit in man But you know do your thing He likes carcinogens You can do no wrong So you know what I'm saying

But with that being said Like and then New Orleans Do you feel like government Like ever like repaid And is these families Gonna ever restore In New Orleans Cause Because I've seen the documentary Spike Lee.

They haven't proved that yet, though. There's no place for them to even come back to. They already, like, a lot of people, they have already, they set it up how they wanted it to go. Like, once that shit went down. So now New Orleans is like a big man. They've begun

their development. They bought the shit out of a big man. They've begun their development. They bought the shit out of those little neighborhoods. There's condos. There's shit that's going on that wasn't there before. So you can't even come back to it if you wanted to unless you got the bread to get it. So do you believe the whole thing about the levees? That it was a setup? In all reality, no conspiracy shit.

What do you think as a person that's from there? It makes sense to me because if they were going to break naturally, then they couldn't predict where it was going to happen. Right. And it would have opened and fucking took out the French Quarter or something. And if that would have happened, New Orleans would be fucked up right now because there'd be no money coming through. So they thought about how can we avoid. Like alleviate this pressure by going that way. How can we avoid this shit pushing through?

Like what part of this shit can we give up? Right. Like let's just wash the hoods out right quick. And that way we can keep this going and we can build them something else where they can fucking do their thing at. Right. And that's what they did. Makes sense to me. They gave them some shit.

You know what I'm saying? Right. It ain't what they had, but they gave them some shit. And they took that spot and they're doing what they want to do. Makes sense. Because I was a friend of the y'all. What was it?

George Bush mother came and was like, these people... Yeah, she said something. What'd she do? She said something. No, she said shit. Holy smoke.

All I know is Kanye. I was just not Kanye when it came out. It was the senior's wife. Yeah, and it was like in the Terror Dome. What is it called? In the Super Dome.

Super Dome. It was the Terror Dome for the... Nah, Terror Dome is my project pterodome. What is it called? In a superdome. Superdome. It was the pterodome for the... Nah, pterodome was my project. Motherfuckers was wild in that, motherfucker. It was the pterodome. Pterodome was my project. It was the pterodome. But when I seen it, that's when I thought about it.

You know what I thought about. And then she was like, these people, for these people, it's like an upgrade. Like, you know what I mean? Like, that was terrible. She said it wasn't those exact words, but it was damn near the upgrade. What was the upgrade? Like, you know, being in... Somebody Google that. Somebody Google yeah she said it wasn't those exact words but it was damn near what was the upgrade like you know being in somebody google what she said oh yeah you don't you don't want to misquote please please yeah yeah i think it was that no no no she it was something like that it was bad it was bad enough it was bad like you know what i mean and i and i'm on the road i'm

looking at this shit and it hurt me like, like, you know, seeing it. Knowing that I know people like you, Lil Wayne, Mac May. Yo, that's fucking. You didn't know about this? No. Yeah, it was a controversy. Big controversy. She said some shit, and it was foul.

And she in there. She's in there. She's in the. This is with New Orleans Saints play, correct? No, she wasn't there. No, no. She was in there. She said.

Yeah. No, no, no. I guarantee it. Watch this. I'm going to bet a shot. I'll bet a shot. I. No, no. She was in there. I guarantee it. Watch this. I'm going to bet a shot. I'll bet a shot. She came to the Superdome when they had all the people. She was in the Superdome when she said it.

She was not in the Superdome when she said it. Watch this. I do not believe it. I'm talking about senior, though. I'm talking about senior. Wait, what is senior? Not the Bush president's wife at the time. I'm talking about senior. Not the Bush president's wife at the time. I'm talking about his father, his mother, his grandma, the mother.

Oh, that's who said it. The mother who said it. She was not in it. She was not in the motherfucker. Where's the Ciroc at? You need to pour his shot for fucking up. Alright, here's what she said. Where's the Ciroc?

Somebody. She basically said that so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway. So this is working very well for them. And then where she said that? That they're better off being in the Superdome. And then where did she say that? It doesn't say that. Well, look it up.

She said it while in the Superdome. No, she did not. She said it while in the Superdome. No, she did not. It don't matter. She was in the fucking Epcot. She did tour the Asherdome complex with her husband. When did she say it? Man, I don't care where she was at

when she said this shit. Of course, how is was going to say that No she says it Mrs. Bush toured the Astrodome But when did she say it? That's where they quoted her Oh at the Astrodome In Houston

That's in Houston That's not in New Orleans That's in Houston I said at the dome No no no You said the Terradome You said the Terradomeome. You said the Pterodome. And you know we was talking about

the Pterodome. There was a lot of people in the Pterodome from New Orleans. Yes, great story. We talk about everybody at the Pterodome. Paul, Paul, Paul. Paul and Mark. I'm going to take one with you. We'll all take it together.

hosted by me, writer and historian Dan Flores, and brought to you by Velvet Buck. This podcast looks at a West available nowhere else. Each episode, I'll be diving into some of the lesser known histories of the West. I'll then be joined in conversation by guests such as Western historian, Dr. Randall Williams, and bestselling author and meat eater founder, Stephen Ranella. I'll correct my kids now and then where they'll say when cave people were here. And I'll say, it seems like the ice age people that were here

didn't have a real affinity for caves. So join me starting Tuesday, May 6th, where we'll delve into stories of the West and come to understand how it helps inform the ways in which we experience the region today. Listen to The American West with Dan Flores on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And it's going to take us to heal us. It's Mental Health Awareness Month, and on a recent episode of Just Heal with Dr. J,

the incomparable Taraji P. Henson stopped by to discuss how she's discovered peace on her journey. So what I'm hearing you saying is healing is a part of us also reconnecting to our childhood. You said I look how youthful I look because I never let that little girl inside of me die. I go outside and run outside with the dogs. I still play like a kid. I laugh. You know, I love jokes.

I love funny. I love laughing. I laugh at myself. I don't take myself too seriously. That's the stuff that keeps you young and stops you from being so hard. To hear this and more things on the journey of healing, you can listen to Just Heal with Dr. J from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
