Starting point is 00:05:10 Now, just for y'all that don't know, we celebrate hip-hop on this show, and we celebrate our legends, you know what I'm saying? And we celebrate the culture of hip-hop. So starting with you, Kick-A-Pree. I remember back in the days, I was a kid from Queens,
Starting point is 00:05:25 and you had something called Kick-C-C-C-C-C-C-a-Lam? Or was the Slow Jams, Kik-A-Pree? Two about the mixtapes? The mixtapes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you know until I was 21, that's the only thing I fucked to?
Starting point is 00:05:35 Right. It was kick and free slow jam tics. That's my word, my dick. I'm like, yo, for real. Like, yo, I kid you nothing. I said 21. I'm lying. Like, I think the first time I put on R&B was with my wife.
Starting point is 00:05:49 And I was like 30 fucking five or, 30. What is what I'm on? Yeah, I was like 31. But for real, the whole chat, you fucked up my whole slow jam taste. Did you know that? I mean, I know that. That you know that. I mean, like, six million other people were like me.
Starting point is 00:06:08 For sure. Yeah, I've heard that a lot. I've heard that a lot. But you know, that all came from the start of the hip-hop tapes. Street tapes I was making, you know, whenever I came out, I wanted to have different colors and different joints. So slow tape was just one of the joints I was making. It just popped off for him.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Same thing like no panty Sundays right now. No panty Sundays, man. On Parasco. On Periscope. On Parasco. Did that rid of a sorriac? Yeah. Was it right on Sarago?
Starting point is 00:06:33 Okay. Okay, here we go. But that stuff's a water. Yeah, so, so, now, kid, so back in the days, Were you considered the first mixtape DJ? No, not at all. Okay, who was?
Starting point is 00:06:45 Well, there was Hollywood before me. There was Bruce B. There was Star Child. There was Lovebug Starsky. But when I came on the scene, I made it national. I made it big. I did it different. I put aggression to it,
Starting point is 00:06:58 and I wanted to be looked at as an artist, not somebody just playing records. So that's why when I got on the stages. Those are the first ones I heard down here in Miami. When I got on the stages, next to that platinum artist, I'm going to leave that scar and that coliseum, you know, just like that platinum
Starting point is 00:07:10 artists is maybe even better because that's how I wanted to be looked at. I didn't want to be looked at as somebody was just playing records, you know what I'm saying? And, you know, and that's how all the money came up. That's all, you know, everything started getting bigger. You know, the first, the DJ became, it became a business now. I made it a business. It wasn't no more you behind a group. Showmanship. Yeah, you wasn't no more. You had to be behind the group to be on and get paid. Now you get paid on your own, you need the own man. You know what I'm saying. And you rock out and travel the world. So that's what it was. Now, A, A, Sack. Yeah, come on. You totally took a drink up. Maybe we're going to take a shot.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Who was the first DJ to play an ASAP for a record? Who was the first DJ to break ASAP for a hit the mic right there. I want to say self. DJ self. All right. I want to say, but I don't, it's so long ago. I want to say self, I can name all the early supporters. How about that?
Starting point is 00:07:59 I want to say self was definitely one advocate that really represented for me. And then I want to say DJ enough, always show me love. Carmelo definitely showed me love For him Carmelo Come on this man Camelho yeah I'm like I'm like

Starting point is 00:08:53 Excuse me. A-Sat Marr. Excuse me. You guys represent a new sound of New York, but it's still New York. But how do you, like, face the criticism when people say, ah, that don't sound like the custom New York? I think we do got certain songs that sound like. traditional New York, but I think
Starting point is 00:09:13 once the internet came, it's almost like you get to hang out everywhere. So it's like you getting music from kids that make beats in Japan or we started linking up with kids that was in Texas and then we was traveling and Rocky went to school in Mississippi
Starting point is 00:09:29 and was linking up with different people. So our sounds naturally progressed in that way. And it was like I said, like the internet kind of like integrated everything and it made it a melting pot for music. And your crew was everywhere. Y'all had people in Miami too. Yeah, Miami, definitely. Shout out to Lotto, A.S.A. Lado, and shout out to DJJ. Scott.
Starting point is 00:09:50 Was it Denzel kind of down with y'all somehow? No, but Denzel is definitely cool. Like extended family. He's cool. He's the homie, yeah. You got totally touched early on, right, being a Puerto Rican in the DJ and, was that, did that face complications because the traditional DJ was black at that time? I mean, you know, I think we was out there from the get. No, no, there was a lot of Puerto Ricas on the scene before me, you know. We were just talking about Little Louis Vega before. And, you know, he was one of the first, you know, doing urban parties in the city.
Starting point is 00:10:27 And Capri actually was doing Studio 54 with him back in 87, which Studio 54. I forgot all about that, but he took me back with that. But, you know, Louis, you know, Charlie Chase, of course. Charlie Chase. Yeah, we had Puerto Rico. presence in there, you know. It wasn't a lot, but, you know, yeah, you know what I mean? But do you feel like it was harder being Puerto Weekend or was it like?
Starting point is 00:10:50 No, because, you know, I was playing dance music too and stuff like that, you know, the dance music. He's still heavy in that too. It was like, you know, predominantly Spanish anyway, so I was in that world as well. But as far as in the hip-hop, you know, not really, man. I didn't really feel no resistance or any type of way. I was just born in East New York, so I was just around it. part of them, you know.
Starting point is 00:11:11 That means you got a body. Let's make noise for people. Everybody needs you don't have a body. You don't got a body. So, kick a breed, right? I've been to your parties. I've been there. Come on, open up that bell there.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Man, you ain't going to get away. You make it. They're into your parties, kicka brief. And you really interact with the crowd. You make sure they participate in. Is that important? Because do you get mad when you see a DJ to just play records? They don't talk to the crowd.
Starting point is 00:11:44 They don't hype it up. I don't get mad. I just stay in my lane to do it. But do you judge them? Come on. No, I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, of course you're going to judge anybody that you go and pay. Well, I don't pay to get in.
Starting point is 00:11:54 But when you go to see somebody on the stage, your whole idea is you want to feel better than you did before you got there. And that's the job of doing. A lot of people sometimes, they get stuck and they suffer and they forget that. They think they're doing the crowd a favor. When them people stop paying them for the tickets, you're going to see who's really doing the favor. So my whole thing is it's not just the crowd. It's the promoter. You got to make sure the promoters happy, such as the same.
Starting point is 00:12:17 when I do a show somewhere in the promoter lives and does everything according to my rider and something like rain happened and the crowd don't come. I tell him, go set up another show and I'm going to come and do it for free for you just so he can get his bread, just so he can never feel like
Starting point is 00:12:31 when I'm down and you're going to kick me further. A lot of dudes, what they do is I got my bread, I'm here, and that ain't my problem and all that shit, but see what happens. That's definitely me. This dude has me come back six more times that year. You see what? He see that. I got his back no matter what,
Starting point is 00:12:45 so I'll come back six more times that year And I ain't got to worry about making a record I ain't got to worry about being on TV I ain't got worried about being on the radio I conquer all that Just the name alone The brand alone keep going Because of those things
Starting point is 00:12:57 Because of the respect That you give these promoters In the crowd that come and pay And that's just it man That's why I keep on it God damn It's so noise With a great nigga

Because you were the first DJ on Deaf Comedy Jam, correct? Yeah, I mean, I was the one with them from the time to start at the time I ended.

Starting point is 00:14:28 It went on the road. I saw you on Miami. Yeah, the first show we did. I'm behind stage. It was about maybe 9,000 people in the crowd. I'm behind stage, and the crowd, the curtain is down. And I'm standing, I'm listening to people, you know, clapping on, but I ain't really thinking nothing of it.
Starting point is 00:14:42 As soon as the crowd, soon as the thing opened, these people were screaming. Like, it was just, like, I ain't, Michael Jackson, the sushi, I ain't know what it was going on, just screaming, but I'm just screaming, but I'm standing. I never got a deaf comedy jammer or the kid.
Starting point is 00:14:53 This is the tour. This is the tour. And when that happened, I went to go grab the mic. They screaming even more. So now what happened was I had a 15-minute set. So I had to play records quick. And the more records I should I play is the more crazy these people got. So I see what I did in them concerts and I applauded to the parties.
Starting point is 00:15:13 And that's when the DJs seen me doing the parties. Playing the shit quick and, you know, freaking it out. But a lot of times a lot of DJs try to do it. and they piss people off because they don't make sense of what they're doing they're just trying to do the shit but when I started doing it
Starting point is 00:15:27 it was a story I was trying to tell so it worked and I just took it and brought it to the party and did what I did like a number of other things we can get into and talk about but we won't even go on there we're going to take a shot

I won't own my first bus, and then I went and bought it to 45 foot. The crazy shit, when I went to go buy my first bus, the people that own the bus, the company, they were laughing at me.

Getting their best drivers, drivers, drivers, just assimilate cash, money, all that. So it was happening. It didn't even offer me a million dollars for my company.

Starting point is 00:17:27 A-Sap gang, but A-Sap crew. But when was the moment that, because I understand that Rocky was the first one to jump off, but when was the moment you said, I'm here? The moment that I knew that when he was doing his thing and I was playing passenger, I was like, I was just basically studying because before I got into the game,
Starting point is 00:17:48 I was scared as hell. You know, they always talk about, like, all the people taking advantage and the record execs and the devils in the game and all of that and your soul to the devil. But who you think is going to take advantage? Who do you think that's going to come from? Who you thought back then?
Starting point is 00:18:02 Them people you wouldn't expect it. The people that Colin talked about? The who? The people that Colin talked about? They're gay. They're gay. They're gay. The college.

Starting point is 00:18:42 just to be that support and I know like you know when things slow down for him you know I gotta be the next one just like how Meek did for Ross so like you know Drake did for Wayne
Starting point is 00:18:52 I gotta be there to pick up the thing to put it on my back and I had to figure out we was like really pushing rockets. Like we was you know, we all wanted to do Vogue. We all wanted to do GQ. We all wanted, but he did it first and he did it. You know, he opened those doors
Starting point is 00:19:08 for us, but we was like basically putting him on a pedestal to do those things. So I was like, what can I do to do something different? You know what I'm saying? Because y'all started hanging downtown wearing different type of clothes. Yeah, but we been hanging downtown and doing a different clothes. Like I was hanging out uptown, I wouldn't
Starting point is 00:19:24 wear different clothes. We were just different. You know, this is the village of Miami right here. I don't think so. This is the village, nigga. I don't know. When was the new, it's the village of Miami. I don't think so. It just don't got style.

Starting point is 00:19:44 Yeah, I know. What I was getting to, though, was just like, I just basically had to discover what I was going to bring to the table. Like, my sound and what A-Sat Ferg is going to be to the group. And I knew that, like, ASAT wasn't really in the clubs like that. You know what I'm saying? Because we was hanging out downtown And we went to house parties
Starting point is 00:20:02 And you know We was with a bunch of white hippies and shit like that I want y'all to advise me to this party You know fashion parties And shit like that So but I'm always the hype one I'm bringing the energy So like I'm the one
Starting point is 00:20:14 I was the invitation to the club And that's when I started doing work And shab and like all of these things Whose idea was that? The shabba shit is a genius Oh that was mine Like listen I didn't even know what I was doing
Starting point is 00:20:25 And just kind of came to me And like I heard the beat at it Yeah, he's like, no, that, yo, he's got fucking Shaba. I know what I'm doing, though. Come on, man. Oh, you're talking about Shaba. Shabaw, I did not know what language you're talking about. You said shah.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Wait, yeah. The race. You got to get the race. Shabawbaw. Nah, it was mine. To get the actual shop. It was mine. Yeah, but what I'm asking, how old are you?
Starting point is 00:20:57 Because how old are you? I'm 28. You're 28. How do you appreciate shop of rinks? I mean, I grew up with Shabba. But the video was spot on, too. And you had to have the, you had the, Sure we all like him.
Starting point is 00:21:06 Shaba Ranks. I had Shaba in the video dancing. The whole treatment of the video was evolved around Shaba. It was like we had people emulating him. I was emulating him. That's what I'm saying. It was spot on. And then like I had, we was like basically laudering in his house.
Starting point is 00:21:24 Like, you know, he snuck in his house. He was like, that's when he shows up at the end of the video. He's like, yo, get out of my house. But he started partying with us. But like I grew up seeing Shaba like going rap city. and I always remember him having mad jury. I always had mad chicks in the videos. So I was
Starting point is 00:21:41 like, yo, who was cool? That shit was cool, man. Always been cool. But I always like paid homage to like those before me like, you know, I used to shout out Selena, like, you know, early in my career, 100 million roses.
Starting point is 00:21:55 And then I put like onyx and Be Real on the same track on my first album. And then I turned around and put bone thugs on a track called Lord on my first album. album. So that was just always the thing I did. It's like, if you want to make history, you got to literally make yourself a part of history. That's what I was doing, linking myself with history. That's one thing I always respected about y'all,
Starting point is 00:22:17 is that, like, from the beginning y'all came out, y'all said y'all was raised on B. I said y' y'r was raised on B. And y'all wasn't afraid to actually big up y'all influences. That's one thing that I always, because it don't matter where your influence come from. I'm from New York City. I don't get a fuck. But if my fucking influence came from NWA, I got to claim that. I got to say it. If my influence came from iced tea, I got to claim it, and that's one thing that I always, you know, respected from y'all. That y'all stuck with that.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Right. Yo, can I get that, Rose? Now, Tony Touch, you're a motherfucking genius. You sat back, and you said, I'm going to make something called 50 MCs. Why? That changed the game for the mix. You fucked us up. Yeah, you fucked us up. Because I had to have my verse.
Starting point is 00:22:59 Every time you go call me for 50 MCs, I had to write for like a week. I had to be like Because I know you might My verse might come on You might put it on Scarface right after me Didn't have the Scarface It's a Naz or a J
Starting point is 00:23:12 You know Shit like that Like how did you think of the 50 MCs What was going through your head What was smoking dust? It feels like PCP What was it Was it
Starting point is 00:23:23 What was the CB's equivalent to that Was it first doo-Off Here's what having DoWI did a mix tape Call 95 Live Right So he raised the bar Oh remember that
Starting point is 00:23:31 And he raised the ball With the mix tape game With that 95 live, you know. What was that? 95 what? It was called 95 live, the mix tape that Okay.
Starting point is 00:23:41 He had like maybe 15 MCs on. KMS and he did like this long intro and it changed the game. It was crazy. So a year later it was my 50th mix tape. And, you know, I wanted to treat it like an anniversary kind of thing and so I fed off of what like Wob did.
Starting point is 00:23:59 You know, it's just different influences. Of course kids set the whole thing off. Everything. You know what I mean? Everything. We're products of this. Let me start off by that. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Pay homage. For not Capri, like, I wouldn't even probably been doing makes tapes, you know what I'm saying? I probably wouldn't have babies involved in Capri. Let's throw that out there. So, you know, so yeah, it was 50MC is the 50th date anniversary. You don't be child support. You want to raise the bar. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:24:25 That's true. That's what it is. You know what I mean? Absolute genius at that time. it was something that you had to sharpen your bars for. Like right now a DJ calls an artist for a mixtape and all they want to do is outfash.
Starting point is 00:24:41 But back then it was about bars. Now, right now, I don't mind the outfashion. I don't mind whatever. Like, I'm into all this new shit. Are you into? What's a new record you into? I mean, you know, I still got the radio show on over there. What's a record Tony Tholka is into?
Starting point is 00:24:59 I mean, I like all of this shit. I like A.S.F. Ferg shit. I like West Coast. shit. I like Zab shit. But name one. I like German shit. I like West... Name one. Name one. You want to get in the car to and ride out to right now. Right now. If I walked
Starting point is 00:25:13 out the door, probably something like Conway right now is like doing it for me. Big up Conway. It's an artist outside of New York. Right. You know, currency. You know, stuff like that. You know, all kind of shit. West Coast shit. How about you, Virp? What's the
Starting point is 00:25:29 joint right now? You want to be jumping in the whip. I'm listening to Russ album. It kills it. Yeah, we've got to get it to Ross album. We can't get it. And I like Drake, the shit where he's talking his shit on
Starting point is 00:25:42 the songs. Oh, okay. He's talking his shit. What is it? It's the first song called of the album? That's free smoke. Free smoke. Free smoke.
Starting point is 00:25:52 Yeah. Free smoke. Free smoke. Nah, no, me, no. I felt them. And besides that, I just listen to like a, I'm still stuck on like the old shit.
Starting point is 00:26:05 Like, honestly. Okay, okay, hold on. So, kid, what's the joint right now? You're going to the car. You want to hear it right now. It's kind of hard to ask me that because I got so much music. I'll be playing.
Starting point is 00:26:14 I got three different shows going on right now. But just one. I mean, right now, I mean, right now, I guess Ross album is banging right now. I'm saying? That trap, trap is crazy. It's all that shit's crazy on that album. I figured I was just on the boat the other day.
Starting point is 00:26:28 We were playing that shit on that. I heard it for the first time. No Bible. Hey, yo, shout out to Bing. Bank did his thing. great job. What you want to stay? Come over here, come over here, come over here, come over here.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Because I want to tell y'all, I want to tell y'all what song I'm, what's what's what what's what song? I want to get in the car right now and listen to you're ready? You're ready? And then the game. Legend, super legend in the game. I'm on the way here. So I'm talking to him on the phone, talking to about, you know, just a regular shit.
Starting point is 00:27:33 And the song comes on and I go, I put the phone down like, like, yo, this is the hottest joint on the street. As soon as I put it back up, he's like, I fucking hate that choice. And I'm like, damn. See, the thing about me is I come from the 90s. But I live in 2017. I choose to appreciate what's happening now. Me too.
Starting point is 00:27:56 Like, I can live off the old shit. That's cool, but I actually lived in that era. You know what I'm saying? Most people who praised that era are people who didn't live in that era. Going down this path again right now? Yeah, no, I'm saying. I'm saying because I actually really did the new shit. And people will be looking at me because I'm like a quote-unquote, you know,
Starting point is 00:28:18 what is it, gangster rapper from then. Like, I can appreciate everything. Look, I do think that you have more fun back in the day. No, we definitely had more fun to you. I feel like it's like you really hardly could feel anything nowadays. Okay, now break that down, Firk. You're going to drink some rosé with me, Fur? I'm drinking.

Starting point is 00:29:23 and just looked at my man and it didn't spill. I'm sorry. Kinski. No, basically it's just like I felt like, you know, back in the days it was about discovery and like, you know, people interacting with people. Nowadays, I feel like everybody hide behind the computer and everything like that.
Starting point is 00:29:40 And I'm not crushing that because it's like, you know, they're open a lot of doors for what's happening now, but, you know, I marveled at what, like, how y'all live y'all lives back in the days. Like, he and the stories from my uncle and my pops and, you know, watching the old movies. Like, what's Gino?
Starting point is 00:29:57 Gino over there? Is Gino here? Gino's here. Get the fuck out of here. I think he's still looking for parking. He better not be. It's not a super parking. I'll tell you the crazy shit.

Starting point is 00:32:20 This is what happened. I'm going to describe what happened. He seemed like he was excited. He was ready to go in. But Tiya, what happened? The lawyer for hip-hop. I blame you. I blame you.
Starting point is 00:32:29 Why? When I walked into the room, he was already talking to Tia, it already looked like. Oh, yeah, me and Tia. I mean, it was cool. That's the homie, you know what I'm saying? But, you know, we've been there. And he just wasn't having it.
Starting point is 00:32:39 Like, he didn't want to play games. He didn't want to take shots. He didn't want to do all that. So I, you know, but Aesat walked in there. So Tia immediately became his lawyer. But Rocky wanted to get wild. No, no. He wanted to get wild.
Starting point is 00:32:53 He started asking me if I was drinking or not. I'm crazy. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Wow. In 2023, a story gripped the UK, evoking horror and disbelief. The nurse who was a nurse who,
Starting point is 00:33:13 should have been in charge of caring for tiny babies is now the most prolific child killer in modern British history. Everyone thought they knew how it ended. A verdict? A villain? A nurse named Lucy Letby. Lucy Letby has been found guilty. But what if we didn't get the whole story?
Starting point is 00:33:32 The moment you look at the whole picture, the case collapses. I'm Amanda Knox, and in the new podcast, doubt the case of Lucy Lettby, we follow the evidence and hear from the people that lived to ask what really happened when the world decided who Lucy Lettby was. No voicing of any skepticism or doubt. It'll cause so much harm at every single level of the British establishment of this is wrong.

I hate fame, I hate the word celebrity, I hate those words,
Starting point is 00:35:28 that you make me uncomfortable. But I think when you get to a certain point, the fame or the success or the influence, it just accentuates and exacerbates the inherent person that you are. The guy that says he's always going to be there and that will do anything to be there is the only guy that's not there. I'm in Australia when Beau is born.

Starting point is 00:39:03 What we're talking about? You're speaking out! So I did my album And I gave it to the head A and all, he lost the shit What? Yes, I told us to the fuck y'all. The whole house. The whole house?

Starting point is 00:39:31 Come on. No, he's doing nothing. So five years later, they called me your. We signed track masters. They're coming in Columbia. They're going, you know, straightened out shit. I was like, all right, I know them. Maybe I'll fuck with them and see what's going to go on.
Starting point is 00:39:46 So as we started. doing I'm my produced all album. I think Traffmasters did maybe two joints and I'm doing everything else. And you know as we're going along, I'm seeing certain things that I didn't think should have happened. But you know, I'm telling them like, let's just wait. You know, they wanted to put it
Starting point is 00:40:01 out on November 17th, the day of everybody coming out, they promoted six months. I'm like, you just wait until the next year turn around and then we put it out then. You know, whatever happened, but the bottom line is the album was a classic. The album was dope. You know what I'm saying? So that's what happened. But as far as it being sold the way it was supposed to be sold,
Starting point is 00:40:17 Handle? It wasn't handled the way I wanted it to handle So from that album, and everybody was on that, I wanted to grab me from that, from that Jay-Z on it, but, you know, I had everybody on that album. From that album, you know, it was so much struggle doing it, even though he was on it, no way it was on it. That's right. But it just made me feel like I didn't want to do no more records. I didn't want to do
Starting point is 00:40:33 no more albums. You know what I'm saying? Because it was just too much clearances, too much shit. I'm on the roll heavy. It was just too much shit to deal with. So I just say I'm going to do it. But now now, you know, I was with that rap for the last eight, nine years, like following them and, you know, being on them and, you know, just supporting the whole movement.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Me and Lux, we had shot some. I was going to bring to HBO and it worked out, but I ended up I started an album on them called Top Tilly. Got tired of him, battle rappers couldn't make good records. So I said, you know, I'm going to take the top battle rappers and some new kids, put them all together and make some hot shit and try to prove the world wrong and don't use no mainstream artists on albums. So I don't have not one mainstream artists on albums.
Starting point is 00:41:09 All battle rappers is called Top Tid. So it's called Tom. So it's a cup? The white one is your cup? No. For, which one, who covers that? The white man? Mine, it's empty.

Starting point is 00:41:40 And, Mr. Cream. It big up. And we're at 8 and 9 right now. Because the reason why I say that, Capri, is because the people who helped me shape my only platinum album was the trackmasters. And I did an album called N-O-R-E.
Starting point is 00:41:57 And I remember damn there almost maybe 60% of the sessions you were the next story to me. Trackmaster is a beast. Let's just get it straight. You know what I'm saying? And they definitely helped me mold my album the way I wanted to mold it.
Starting point is 00:42:10 You know what I'm saying? Sonically and everything, if you listen to the soundtrack to the street sound album, was incredible and it was they did a lot of contributing. Did you come to Bersville? Huh?
Starting point is 00:42:20 Bersville? A lot of contributor to me. Shall I say the right words? Did you come to Bersville? You don't remember Bersville? No, I did everything in, uh, in, uh... Hiff factory? Yeah, everything was in Hiff factory.
Starting point is 00:42:30 So we did that. You remember we used to bowl bottles of crystal? You don't remember that? I wasn't around here. Yo, listen, listen. We used to drink all the crystal, right? And then we used to be like, yo, line them up. And we would line them up.
Starting point is 00:42:43 Take Factor, we kicked us out. none of that less. You remember, it was two hit factories. Yeah. It was the one up the block on 54 and the one down the block. I was banned for life. Band for life. And there's one out here right in Miami. Well, that's, uh, yes. Right, okay. That's jump where that was going
Starting point is 00:43:00 that was originally criteria. Okay. They used to be called. The Miami. I'm old school. Criteria is mad. Is it? Yeah, I'm mad old school. It was called criteria and the hit factory boarded. But remember, 54th Street, it was Sony
Starting point is 00:43:14 then it was hit factory and then it was the old hit factory I could never get the new head factory because I was that new one I had we used to Christ out was the shit back then so we used to drink so much bottles of crystal we still line the bottles up
Starting point is 00:43:27 and then whoever was drinking the next bottle we just be like okay let's go my whole session you cannot walk because everybody other sessions they should take their socks off their shoes off and just walk around you know what I mean you can never do that in my sessions my shit is we both

Starting point is 00:43:55 You remember? Because they had built the new hit factory up the block from Sony. Remember Sony was right there? But you was basically in almost every session of my most famous album, N-R-E-R-E-I. Remember, B? Fiesta. Fiesta, you were just on your album? No, no.

Starting point is 00:45:02 My brand and butter always been on them stages and doing what I do. Now I'm taking it real serious. Like, you know what I'm saying? Even though I produced my first and second album, it never really was. One thing I was, one thing don't like doing. I can't go on motherfuck

So it's like, you don't need, you know, I just, I just stare at the way I do my lane, that's it.

And you're going to get off with way more than I'm going to get just like a chick in the strip club. She's going to get off with way more than a regular chick going to get. It ain't just the strip club. It's the ball over here. It got the $10,000 for a couple of hours.

Starting point is 01:31:57 if you was in there, you felt like you was somebody, but really you was nobody, really? So when I was in there, I was just looking at this shit like it was like, wow, this is what goes on. But after the party was over, the whole 45th Street, it should be flooded.
Starting point is 01:32:16 You see the biggest dudes driving, the craziest car. skinning around the street. The whole street flooded out. And then they all go on Wednesday night. They'll leave from there. We'll all go to the rink in New Jersey. And the rink, that used to be crazy.
Starting point is 01:32:30 Leave the rink come back to 145th Street to A-Fad. That was like base. Like, it was just the place to be. Like, Harlem at that time was just crazy. But there was a lot of killing going on. A lot of different shit going on. When niggas getting killed, boy, day, like, buggies was like a big deal out there.
Starting point is 01:32:45 See, niggas rolling up, shooting in buggies and shit like that. But you came in up in the time. where there was none of that you came in a good time you know what I'm saying but at that time it was like it was rough at that time Paul used to buy, our poll used to buy a tape for me for $500. What a mistake?
Starting point is 01:33:00 Let me get that tape kid Nah Paul I'll give you a hundred. No, he'd $200 Nah Paul, he'll get $300 He fired it Alright, Paul, take you got a day Yeah, it was crazy at that time Now back then
Starting point is 01:33:16 Because you coming from Queens, right? Queens, you were like the first person bearing through from the Bronx, Harlem, uptown, the uptown area, bringing to here. Then it was the bounce master, DJ Duwop. Yeah, I had beef. What happened?
Starting point is 01:33:37 I was it for Queens. No, no, no, I'm saying. I'm telling you, I'm coming from. Oh, you come from Queens. What happened with me and Duwop was what was somebody I was going to school with. And I didn't know he was going. Wow.
Starting point is 01:33:49 You got both in the bra. We used to go, yeah, we've been to see each other in the morning and all that, puff, all that in the morning. So what happened was, one day this kid, you know, I'm rocking with the tape, shit popping, everything's going good. This is right when I was about to stop, because what happened was I got signed to Columbia, I mean, the Warner Brothers. And Starlight, the A&R, she showed me a bunch of magazines that said, Kikip, the only DJ in the world to sell millions and make millions of dollars off the street mixtapes. And I knew that wasn't true. I knew people were selling my tapes. They were buying houses and cars off my joints from some of them.
Starting point is 01:34:21 But I wasn't making that bread. I was making what I was making. So that's when I decided. So you know what? I'm going to leave it's the Michael Jordan and this shit and going to take my career a different way. Right. Right? When I decided to do that, some kid that I ain't seen years rolled up on me with a little bit of a tape
Starting point is 01:34:35 and said, yo, this kid named Dew I'm about to come at you. And he gave a little bit to me on the tape. So he played it for me. So I'm like, oh, shit, the fuck is good. And what was it saying on the tape? Some shit. It was just, it was whatever it was, some shit, but it was disrespectful. Right.
Starting point is 01:34:50 Again, I didn't know it was wild. So, right away, I made the beat, and them little four-track, Earth-win-five joint chopped it up, wrote the rhyme right there, had to join out the next day. Before he even got a chance to put his joint out, I had my shit out. So that was the last joint I put out, and that shit was monumental. So now he had came out with like 50 joints after,
Starting point is 01:35:10 I ain't going to call it 50, but he came out with a lot of joints after, and that was my only joint. You know, and that was the beginning of me and Y'Bee, where it got disrespectful is when YP has said something about my moms and my girl. And that's when we had a show. I had a show in Virginia. He had a show in Virginia, and I took my tour bus down there, did my show, and I waited for him to have his show the next day, and I went to his show. And, you know, I put him out to booth me, you know, let's go around the corner of me, and you leave our people here, and we do what we do. And, you know, it didn't work out like that.
Starting point is 01:35:42 And I know it wasn't going to be nothing, so later on the apartment. for what he said, and that's all I really wanted. There's no, it was no problem. Later on, me and Watt made records together. We made two or three joints together where we work. And right now, it is Damien. It was cool. At the time, it was little tense, and we was going to get it on.
Starting point is 01:36:00 But later on, we seen that it really wasn't nothing. It was kind of monumental for us because it brought a certain bar to the DJ, to the rap DJ. You know, you remember, I got bars, too. I could get on the mic, and I do my thing. I do what I do. So that's what it was It just brought that level And then it brought dudes like Tony Touchout
Starting point is 01:36:18 And dudes that could rhyme And producing DJ and all that shit It shows that you just not stuck in one spot You know what I'm saying So shout to why Was talented, talented dude I thought it was gonna take an L But really nobody took an L
Starting point is 01:36:32 It was just a monumental thing that happened In the mixtape game You know what I'm saying But it was going to turn nasty Because of that But it never really did So it was all great And I talked to why I talked to
Starting point is 01:36:44 day. It's all good. Let's make some love. I'm really good. It's popping off. You doing your thing. You sit back. Now, what is your plans when you're saying? My first record pops off. What am I going to do? What was your plans from the original beginning?
Starting point is 01:37:07 Go and never stop. Yeah, go and never stop. Never take my foot off the gas. Because I always knew that I had a bunch of people I had to put on as well. Like, you know, me, Rocky, 12ie, Addy, like the whole A-Sat Maw, just the mall,
Starting point is 01:37:23 but I got family outside of the mall as well. You know, I got people I grew up with kids. You know, Marty Bala, I got, you know, my Uncle T, I got, you know, different people that's in my family, you know, that's a part of my
Starting point is 01:37:39 team now that I have to support or I wanted to support, so it's always been not about me, it's about, like, you know, getting this opportunity to put other people on. How old was you put on my mind me asking when your father's passed away? It was three days before my 17th birthday. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:58 And did you know your pops is a legend, though? Oh, definitely. Okay. I always think about all the kids that, like, you know, like, I always just think about Dame Dash, son, because he was pretty popping back then, you know, as far as, like, his pops being, like, somebody in the industry. Somebody like, boogie? Yeah, boogie. Shout to boogie.
Starting point is 01:38:18 Or, like, Lil Roe. Romeo or like, you know, these people whose sons, like, they fathers with somebody. And I always thought like, damn, like, my pops is somebody. Because he knew all these people. He introduced me to Puff. You know, it was a bunch of killers I met. You know, it was a bunch of, like, different people that came to that storm on 145th. So, you know, it was, I knew that my Pops was powerful.
Starting point is 01:38:43 And I knew that I was somebody special because of him. And you said 17. 17. So what age you thought you'd like acknowledge that your father's proud? Always Always knew that. Always knew that. Because he wasn't only powerful
Starting point is 01:38:59 But he was a good man. He was incredible. And that's the only thing that I, like the only thing that I Hold on to in life is just being a good nigga. Right. Like I don't give a fuck about anything else. Yeah, yeah. That's what a nigga
Starting point is 01:39:15 think about me. I just want to be a good nigga. And that's what's your pops. Right, definitely. He's 100% the good nigga. He's a student. He didn't kids.
Starting point is 01:39:26 He did. Everybody was there. Everybody came by. Puff moms was there. Everybody. My father was just like the bridge. I like to call him the bridge because, like I said,
Starting point is 01:39:37 he was the bridge between the streets and mainstream. You know what I'm saying? He wasn't like one way. And, you know, he always kept like a solid basin hall of and he put on for his people and I got a chance to meet
Starting point is 01:39:50 all types of people from all walks of life from like the superstars to the hood dudes that ran things in the hood that knew how to talk that politics and who you had to speak to if you had to come around town and he wanted to make some moves
Starting point is 01:40:07 he knew everybody so when this rap thing first came to you was that something you discussed with your pops or not I was always shy about music with my pops because I was never I feel that way I was never the music person and he knew all
Starting point is 01:40:23 the giants like you know he introduced to puff and you know what is my little rap's going to do for him I understand so like you know when it came to rap music I was just I was battling under my hood he didn't even know you know I was doing music or writing rhymes because I was
Starting point is 01:40:39 I was also designed a clothes and drawing at the same time I was doing what he was doing so it was just like you know my rap I just kind of kept to myself and my friends. So, as a person who, and I apologize about getting a little deep, but
Starting point is 01:40:55 as a person, I lost my father during the highlight of my career. Wow. My father died July 3rd, 1998. Best year of my life is 1998. Wow. Sorry to hear that. So, as a person, and my father used to look at me like this.
Starting point is 01:41:13 I swear to gone. I was like, yo, I said, tell my father, you know, I'm rapping. I'm far as like, yeah. He's a hood, nigga, like, but Spanish with a tail, 75 tattoos, earrings in his ear. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, he's one of the old. He looked like Tony Touch.
Starting point is 01:41:30 Yeah, right. Like, like, like, with green eyes. He's got green eyes in my box, right? So I told him on rapping, he used to go, like, yeah, we rap it. And I'm like, no, I'm really rapping, bro. But, like, what I'm. The point I'm trying to make is, Hey, you smoke a ton of this?
Starting point is 01:41:51 Yes. You just told me no, you. Yeah, but now, yes. Let's go. We got more, right? Come on. So the point I'm trying to make is, like, you see who your pops is,
Starting point is 01:42:09 you've seen it. And now you're becoming yourself. Are you feeling like you have to fulfill his legacy, or you feel like you can keep it going yourself? I definitely got a... I'm an extension of him how I liked it or not. Like, you know, I came out of it.
Starting point is 01:42:28 Look just like the name. Yeah, exactly. So, you know, definitely got to keep the name alive and what he established. But I'm definitely myself as well. Like, I got my own ideas of how I want to live the rest of my life or, you know, mistakes that he made that I could learn from as well.
Starting point is 01:42:47 So, you know, definitely continue with his legacy through doing what I want to do. Right. Yeah. Like, the thing about me is, like, he was, my father was the only Puerto Rican nigger in the whole six-glox radius, right? But every black, my hood is a black hood. Every black nigga loves my father. So me, my whole goal is, everybody loves me. or give you an occupation that you could love me for
Starting point is 01:43:26 for you to get to your next level and that's what I'm doing right now I'll face a noise for me my guy hold on let me tell you my dad let me let's get to all that right now I feel like you're like 52
Starting point is 01:43:45 nationalities I'm half black and half Sicilian Everybody thought I was Puerto Rican for years My dad was the son of My dad was the first soul singer With a Latin band A very known Latin band Called a LeBron brothers
Starting point is 01:44:02 In 68 he was singing Soul records with them They would play the Latin music He was singing so and you know So said then he left him And he became his own artist But before him, his father My grandfather used to play trumpet for Disney
Starting point is 01:44:17 Gillespie, Calaisie, Miles Davis, David was sitting with all them dudes So the music always been around. Yeah, the music always been around. But he was the first one with a Latin band. I was crazy back there. I play that music right now for certain people. Berg, where you go?
Starting point is 01:44:29 What's got into the bathroom? All right, guys. It happens on three champs. Wait, so your Sicilian father was in a Latin band? My dad is black. So where's the Sicilian side? My mom's. You can't understand where he can come from.
Starting point is 01:44:46 You just got to respect it. I just asked the question. I didn't understand. I just tell me, I've been following this nigger for years. I knew this nigger's 17 countries. And see, another thing, I want to make sure I want to get one thing clear is that, you know, like I said, you know, we do a lot of days around the country. And we play for the young and old. I want nobody to sit on here and watch and think that, you know, you look at me and think I don't know what all the trap joints is and all the joints and everything.
Starting point is 01:45:15 Like, we do this every year, every week. Like, we're on the road every week for the young and old smash. and everywhere we go. But a lot of youngers may heard a name, Kid Capri, and may not know the Kid Capri
Starting point is 01:45:25 experience, never been through it, never know what it is until they see it, and when they see it, they know it's a whole other level into what they're probably been used to, but for the ones that didn't see it, that's what it's about.
Starting point is 01:45:36 And, you know, and that goes into saying, like, not everybody that come from my ever, which I consider myself, Mr. Every ever, but not everybody that come from my ever is stuck in an old-school way of thinking.
Starting point is 01:45:48 Okay, that's a relaxing for us. You know what I'm saying? Mr. Every Era? Yeah, absolutely. That's a great name, though. That is hard. That is hard. Let's make some noise to Mr. What?
Starting point is 01:45:59 Every error. Say it again. Say it again. Mr. Every error. God damn. The main thing is that a lot of dudes that come from errors back then to get stuck in the old school way of thinking and what happens that they don't understand what the 17-year-old or the 18-year-old was doing,
Starting point is 01:46:17 but you were 17- and 18-year-olds at one time when your parents was questioning you. So it's not. When them 17-year-olds and them 18-olds and them 21-year-olds make that music, they're not making it for the grown person. They're making it for the person that understand what they're doing. If you happen to be grown and like it, then you like it. Now, I watch 50-year-olds dance the trap music every, you know what I'm saying, all the time. At the end of the day, I hear it's a hit.
Starting point is 01:46:39 It doesn't matter what the age is. And this is why I started to kick a pre-blot party on Sirius X and Fly. I play, you hear Young & May. Like I told you hear Young & May. You'll hear Al Green. You'll hear you hear, you'll hear, um, drama after that you'll hear KRS 1.
Starting point is 01:46:57 It becomes that. It becomes putting everything together, bridging the gap instead of saying the old is over here, the young is over here, and nobody. What's good is good is good is good. That's what it is. That's good is bad. Because at the end of the day, like I said, that 50-year-old going to that party when that DJ
Starting point is 01:47:13 play that trapmecky, your ass is on that dance store dancing to it. But then you're going to talk bad about the youngers about what they're doing. Again, let them do what they're doing. They're doing nothing. If they were tearing shit up in the street, then that would be a problem. They're making music that people understand. Like, their generation understand.
Starting point is 01:47:32 Let them do what they do. Why are you talking bad about it? You don't like it and don't listen to it. You ain't got to like it. Don't talk bad about it. If anything, you get a chance to help them out. Tell them the right way. Tell them, you know, like, all you doing this.
Starting point is 01:47:43 Now, try this suit. Try this to put it together and make an album that got colors to it. Don't just put something out there where it's just one thing. I get a little fed up with that. You hear one album is all the same beats. All the way through same speed, same to say. I mean, okay, yeah. You want to hear a little bit of variety and shit.
Starting point is 01:47:59 And I don't want to hear an album of all features. Like, I want to hear you, you know what I'm saying? So everybody got there what they like. But at the same time, nobody has the right to tell you what to make. You make what you want to make. And if they like it, they like it. Who are you to judge it? You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:48:14 You know, and that's real shit. It's real shit. Make some noise for that. You know what I'm saying? In 2020, a story gripped the UK, evoking horror and disbelief. The nurse who should have been in charge of caring for tiny babies is now the most prolific child killer in modern British history.
Starting point is 01:48:41 Everyone thought they knew how it ended. A verdict, a villain, a nurse named Lucy Letby. Lucy Letby has been found guilty. But what if we didn't get the whole story? The moment you look at the whole picture, the case collapses. I'm Amanda Knox, and in the new podcast, doubt the case of Lucy Letby, we've found. follow the evidence and hear from the people that lived it to ask what really happened when the world decided who Lucy Lettby was. No voicing of any skepticism or doubt. It'll cause so much
Starting point is 01:49:14 harm at every single level of the British establishment of this is wrong. Listen to doubt the case of Lucy Letby on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Nancy Glass, host of the Burden of Guilt Season 2 podcast. This is a story about a horrendous lie that destroyed two families. Late one night, Bobby Gumpbright became the victim of a random crime. He pulls the gun. Tells me to lie down on the ground. He identified Tremaine Hudson as the perpetrator.
Starting point is 01:49:52 Termaine was sentenced to 99 years. I'm like, Lord, this can't be real. I thought it was a mistaken identity. The best lie is partial truth. For 22 years, only two people knew the truth until a confession changed everything. I was a monster. Listen to Burden of Guilt Season 2 on the IHeart Radio app,

I hate fame, I hate the word celebrity, I hate those words, that you make me uncomfortable. But I think when you get to a certain point, the fame or the success or the influence, it just accentuates and exacerbates the inherent person that you are. The guy that says he's always
Starting point is 01:51:01 going to be there and that will do anything to be there is the only guy that's not there. I'm in Australia when Bo is born.

Starting point is 01:52:29 Now, Tony Toka. What are we doing next for Tony Toka? 150 MCs Oh, do you want to have a shot? I feel like you want to say, shot for now. Maybe that. You know, let's do a shot.
Starting point is 01:52:47 Come on. Yeah, I was checking out the little things. Yeah, I was figuring out, you know, what I was going to go bomb? No, no, no, no. I was going to see if I could score one of these guys up there. Oh, what is that? What's that?
Starting point is 01:52:58 The collection they got going on up here. You got to relax. You wait to live. You went to him, but. What happens? You got to smoke. I don't know if they're... You smoke.
Starting point is 01:53:10 You look at these things. It's decorations, though. It's decoration. You can't take the decoration. You got a rat. Well, in any event, yeah, no, no, I was just admiring the... So we're not going to have 150 MCs. Are we upgrading from 50 to 150?
Starting point is 01:53:34 No, I mean... That would be kind of... Actually, we've already recorded, like, over 150. I believe it. You know, so. But like, like it said, it's a lot of work, man, like getting people to record and paperwork and this and that and this. But how annoying is it? How annoying is it, doga?
Starting point is 01:53:54 Like, when you want to finish something and you're depending on all artists. Is artists really annoying? Let's just throw it out there because I'm not an artist no more. Yes. So you throw us under the bus And I'm going to actually cheer it on No, not at all It's all time
Starting point is 01:54:11 It's all timing, man, you know? That's it. It's just so... No, it is true. What you said is right. It's all timing. Like, everything line up, paperwork, whatever, record, this, that,
Starting point is 01:54:23 it just goes, you know. I feel sometimes artist is a piece of shit. You can say that. Sometimes. Sometimes, yeah, sometimes. I think sometime depending on who you are,
Starting point is 01:54:35 And I'm not speaking about myself. I'm taking myself to the left. But depending on who you are, you get a call faster when you're doing something. You know what I'm saying? Break that down. We don't understand anything you just said. Break it down. Okay.
Starting point is 01:54:48 What I'm saying is like if you're a certain caliber here, you ain't going to get the call as fast as this mogul right here. Or this dude that sells this amount of records. You know what I'm saying? And, like, again, I'm not speaking for myself because I hardly ask anybody for anything, but I'm speaking in the general term you know sometime the dude that's down here I remember one time Eminem said something to me
Starting point is 01:55:12 he said Eminem said Eminem said something he said don't go and spend a whole bunch of money on the artist that you think is going to give you the hit record because you can go and spend all that money on that artist and he won't give you shit your record won't go nowhere and now he'll spent all that money on this artist that you think is going to give you somewhere because he's popping
Starting point is 01:55:30 and that's the truth Red Man said it's about to produce in your hood that give you that sound that makes you be who you be. Instead of you run into the dude that is popular. You know what I'm saying? Everybody gets caught and what's popular and not what's authentic. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:55:45 And that's what happens a lot of times. Authentic is the most important work. Authentic is what's the most important because authenticity is going to give you the business. They're going to give you what you pay for. When you deal with popularity, okay, yeah, we don't want to deal with things
Starting point is 01:56:02 that's popular. But is the popular person giving you authenticity. Are they giving you your money's worth? Are they, are you, do you feel good at the end of the night paying them? You see what I'm saying? Did they bring a whole bunch of people on stage and that's their show? You know what I'm saying? Like, what are you paying for? What are you looking for? Are you looking for popularity or you looking for somebody who's going to get the job done? You know what I'm saying? So I don't know. My way of thinking is a little different
Starting point is 01:56:30 maybe a little different than a lot of people, but the business is the business that people like what they like. But I just think that the smart thing is is that you cater to the people that follows what is the real shit. The real shit is, the people that pay,
Starting point is 01:56:45 satisfy them. Satisfy them. Don't get so caught up in popularity. Get caught up in what's going to get the job done. I feel like we got to make noise. You know what I mean, I'm going to sound too appreciate, but I mean, I know y'all expect to tell you all the real shit. So I'm going to be real about it.
Starting point is 01:57:02 You know, that's just the way I see it. If I was a promoter or something like that, I would want to promote on the short thing that's going to bring me money later on. You know what I'm saying? Not just for the moment. I want to go on with it, you know what I'm saying? So that's what's up.
Starting point is 01:57:16 Douga, how do you feel about that? It's good. You know what? I'm in Miami, first of all. You go relax. It's already awesome. Listen, doga, you go relax. Yes.

Starting point is 01:57:54 We didn't have hot chocolates. No, in my mind, I have hot chocolate. In your mind. In your mind. When they have a hot chocolate. I was like, I got out of y'allel. It too. Amazing.
Starting point is 01:58:03 And what I was? No, I didn't get it. Relax. Okay. Who's the guy who was doing? Ferg is not coming back. Perg's not coming back. It's a relax.
Starting point is 01:58:14 We got to relax. Relax. Perth's coming back? What is he doing? Is that in a shot? He didn't. Oh. It's relaxing.

Starting point is 01:58:34 the non- What's that shit for? We don't see Non-dairy Ice cream now. Uh-uh. Come on. I got it.

Starting point is 01:59:04 That's what I'm on. He can get money where you can do a lot of things, man. Yo, Fur, you got to hit one. You should have to turn bad, too. Come on, man. You don't know what I'm going to smoke. Just one hit. No, man.
Starting point is 01:59:15 It's for your fans. Just for your fans. Ain't nothing to do with me. Shout out of my fans. Big them up and hit one hit. All right. Just pass a thing. Tony Toch and smell it.
Starting point is 01:59:30 Tony Tox. You know, please. Yo, your kid, you're getting a lot of money for a long time. That's all right. Do you play? Listen, listen. At one point, Jay-Z
Starting point is 01:59:48 has to say he's the greatest guy of all time. Maddo. Do you not feel like you're the greatest DJ at all the time? I mean, everybody's going to feel like they're the greatest I just, bro. I say, feel like it. I'll tell you what.
Starting point is 02:00:03 What I've done to earn a name the world's greatest DJ, which I didn't give myself, but what I've done, I think pretty great because I was the one that set the bar to let DJs become a business now. If I didn't do what I did, where would that have went? You rock on the mic the way you do
Starting point is 02:00:24 because Kit Capri did it the way he did it. You play the records, you play. the way you play it because Kikipree set that form. You became a hot party DJ because Kikipri gave me the bluefin of how to be a hot party DJ. Let's not get this twisted. You see what I'm saying? A lot of DJs are doing what I do and don't even know they got it from me.
Starting point is 02:00:47 And I'm happy for that. I'm happy to sit back and say, I rocked a whole nation and let a whole nation be able to take care of their family. I remember one dude walked in the mall, your kids, because of you, I'm not killing someone. Because of you, I'm not robbed in somebody's house. I did what you did. I followed you, and I'm taking care of my family now. I ain't got to do that crazy shit no more. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 02:01:08 So knowing all the things that I've done, we can sit here and talk about it all day. We even got enough time. But knowing all the things I've done, sitting back, sitting back, and just realize when I see somebody on a mic, DJing, and they got to set up like me and they all that, and they're doing saying things I might have said or, you know, saying it the way I might say it. It just makes me feel like, yo, you did.
Starting point is 02:01:28 did your thing, kid. You did your thing. You didn't just waste your time. You ain't bullshit. You did something that really moved culture. You know what I'm saying? And you also went on tour with the lots, right? I went to tour everybody. I've been on 25 tours. If you want to talk about Deaf Comedy Jam, I've been on that tour for nine years. 16 years. I'm sorry, 16 years.
Starting point is 02:01:48 And then who else? You ain't going on tour with Jay Z? R. Kelly, Jayzee, Puff, Buster, Usher, Drew Hill, Genuine, Leah. shit. Bon thugs. Rock him. We go on and on and on, man. We go on and on and on. But mostly, you know, I'd be on the road on my own doing what I do.
Starting point is 02:02:13 I've been doing 200 shows since 1991. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, that's why, like, even in New York, like I love New York or from New York, but I don't like how New York is moving a little bit, especially when the promoters acting like they're the stars and shit. You push it so big on the fly You got the DJ down here
Starting point is 02:02:32 Come on, cut it out, beat At the end of the day You know, when you come to one of my shows I got my opening is me You ain't gonna hear one record Five times in my party You know what I'm saying You're gonna hear one time
Starting point is 02:02:42 You're gonna hear the whole party smashing From the beginning to the end Doesn't matter who it is When I step on that stage It's pandemonium, period From the beginning to the end And ain't no down period It ain't no standing around
Starting point is 02:02:56 It ain't nobody thinking they cute It ain't none of that shit. It's real business, and that's what I do. So I don't know how anybody else doing. I shout to everybody. You get your bread, do it. You come to kick your pre-event, you're going to get your business done. And that goes for promoters.
Starting point is 02:03:10 That goes for anybody that paid for a ticket. I think about the people first. For years, I took an artist, a DJ, and this is another thing I'm going to speak about. You know, some of the people might not understand what's the reason of bringing a DJ with me instead of just having DJs that's going on. I don't like people who not getting their money. worth. So when I bring somebody with me, I'd rather spend the money for that
Starting point is 02:03:32 person to come out and make sure that we're not bump in heads so that people that pay their money is getting a full show and to have the DJ that want to come in there before me and do what you paid me to do. You don't need that. He don't need me there. If you want to come in there and do that, then you ain't the type of dude that can rock a party
Starting point is 02:03:48 with C&D records. You would do that depends on the record to be hot. I play those hot records at the end of the night like I don't even need them because it ain't about those records. Anybody can play those records. It's about you. You see what I'm saying? If you can't sell you, then you're just like everybody else.
Starting point is 02:04:04 There's nothing different. You know what I'm saying? That's the difference. When you come in there, it's about making sure the people that paid their money feel better than they did before they walked in there. And when you leave that scar there, that promoter knows. I don't give a shit who you get. Kid Capri, he shook this shit. Let's go get him again.
Starting point is 02:04:22 Let's go take him into another city. Yo, my man, that you promote, let's go get kid. You want to get some bread? let's go get kid. Every show I do swollen, everywhere. And it's not because of me, DJ and it's because
Starting point is 02:04:33 everything else that come with it. It's professional. We are on time. The people that work with me make sure your shit's going to be right. We're going to make sure everything is together. You ain't going to throw me in no corner
Starting point is 02:04:42 like I'm some neighborhood DJ. You're going to put me on stage like I'm supposed to be the same way you're going to put Jay Z on stage. Same way you're going to put the dude with the hit record on stage. And I'm going to sell this shit out
Starting point is 02:04:53 the same way he did and you're going to treat me like you treated him. If you ain't going to treat me like that, go get the next dude to do your show because I don't need it. I do 20 shows a year. So this is the attitude I've been having for years, and people may not understand it. But I don't want to be looked at as a DJ that just play records. You're going to look at me as a force to be wrecking with it.
Starting point is 02:05:14 And if you don't, I don't need you. Simple as that. I do a show with Ferrug come on. His record drop. They're going to go crazy. What I'm going to do after Furr to get off stage. I'm going to do something that's going to make niggas go crazy. to say, yo, that the first ripped it, kid ripped it,
Starting point is 02:05:30 whoever came after, he better be good. You know what I'm saying? Because that's what it's about. I'm a DJ. I'm not the dude that made the record. I'm not that. I'm a dude that I'm going to play your record better than you perform it. Don't play yourself. You see what I'm saying? And that's how we're going on.
Starting point is 02:05:45 This is what inspired us right here. I'm just saying, real shit, you know, and again, I made my first album. I rapped on the whole album. One of the brothers came out of me. I was hot in the street with the mix tapes. Yo, we need you to rap on the joint set the rhymes that you sit on your mix tapes. And I'm in there making the beats in the studio writing the rhymes right there. And I was
Starting point is 02:06:08 trying to be no rapper. You know, but all right, this is what they want. I couldn't do I couldn't make hit records being a DJ. So I had to do it that way. So I did it that way. When I got a chance to make my second album, then I got a chance to just show the production side and get everybody else. I got Jay Buster, Lost Boys, Pund,
Starting point is 02:06:24 Norrie, everybody put them all together and make soundtrack to the streets. Now I got top tier. This is going to be another thing. And remember, everything I do, no matter how big my name, it's always been ground from the ground up. I sat on that street corner. I sat on the middle of 145th Street, Nate Favner where it was killing, shootings,
Starting point is 02:06:41 niggas get robbed, all that. I sat in the middle of that. I didn't know if I was going to get robbed and killed by sitting there by sitting there just selling mixtape. Shicks were driving by laughing like I was doing bad. I used to have to put 14 gold chains on my neck just to look like I was doing good. Sitting there in the middle of the street,
Starting point is 02:06:58 selling this shit. and the shit took me the way it took me. Now, at the end of the day, you know, I didn't know what was going to happen. I know she was going to blow up the way it blew up, but the shit blew up. Once it did, I made sense of it. I made it happen.
Starting point is 02:07:12 You know what I'm saying? And that's it. That just goes to show anybody. It doesn't matter who it is. You put yourself in it. Look at you're going to show. You've been making records forever. That's right.
Starting point is 02:07:21 You've been making, look at what you were at now. Whole different lane. It's beautiful. Whole different lane. Right now, right now, you can sit here right now, the way I'm doing on a periscope. And on IG Live, I sit there It's not just about the music
Starting point is 02:07:33 And the freaky way I play it It's the lifestyle Everything I say to you And you're gonna believe it And the reason why you're gonna believe it Because I don't have a credibility Of King Capri being a shitty nigga Kid never shitted on nobody
Starting point is 02:07:45 Kid they never did You don't see nothing on the internet With kids doing foul shit Or playing and stuff Or fucking crazy Everything is authentic So you're gonna believe what I tell you If I say something foul about you
Starting point is 02:07:56 They're gonna believe it They're gonna believe it Because they know I don't say nothing Same thing. You have a lane now that you could tell people, you know, believe me. Believe what I say. This is the truth. This is what's going on.
Starting point is 02:08:08 And as long as you stay like that, people are going to follow you. You drink champ is the shit. Let's get it straight. Drink shit. That's vacation. I took a vacation because I've been working my ass on. I've been offered to do shows and parties and all that shit. He offered me money to do a show.
Starting point is 02:08:29 I took nothing. The only thing I took was drink champs. The only thing I took because this one wife tell me when I do something good. Aw. No doubt, man. I'm going to. Nah, but you're saying. Yes.
Starting point is 02:08:53 So, babe. Right up. Furb sitting here like, Dad, it's a classic. Listen, Ferg, it's a classic episode. I'm happy to be a part of it. Class of it. We have it out of here, bro. Now, what are y'all niggas going to do?
Starting point is 02:09:08 and come on, come on, and the ASAP can to take control over New York. We, we, depending on you, Rocky, and all y'all to take over for us because I don't want to rap no more. I'm okay already. Man, I think it's bigger than rap, though, man.
Starting point is 02:09:33 I think it's... So what we need your niggas to take over? No, we're going to rap. We're going to take over, but I think it's big and then rap. Because the last thing we need... Can I bring it down a little bit more so you're right? Because you know why?
Starting point is 02:09:45 We're from New York. Right. We're all from New York. All of us. No, I'm from Miami. No, you're from New York. I'm Miami, motherfucker. And your fucking mind, you're from New York.
Starting point is 02:09:55 I'm not going to have it. But for New York is, right? We need y'all to step up. Right. Some people look at your sound. Some people look at the movement, and they say, ah,
Starting point is 02:10:12 it's different. I'm not one of those guys. I'm one of those guys. I think different is good. That's what I think. I think different open up more doors. Absolutely.
Starting point is 02:10:24 Now, now the torch is really in you guys' hands. Right. Like, I mean, for real, for real. Right. Like, I mean,
Starting point is 02:10:33 it doesn't matter how many records Fat Joe will make, bust the rounds to make, Nori will make, Jaru, will make DMX and make 50 cent make right now
Starting point is 02:10:44 y'all the new generation right it's actually really in your hand right I'm a slot to beat them yeah we know we can't be heavy too can't wait something heavy we're just going to keep being us and keep
Starting point is 02:11:00 continue to to innovate and push culture forward I think you know I don't I don't like to talk with myself or what we do is as far as a group, but I think that, like, we did a lot for the youth, the underground internet scene that was trying to break through and, you know, Harlem didn't have, or New York didn't have a voice in a long time.
Starting point is 02:11:27 So, you know, we don't only just speak for New York. We speak for the culture, period. No culture. Now for New York, I have, like, a whole crazy love about New York. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, I love Harlem and death. I love Brooklyn. little Queens, the Bronx, Staten Island, Long Island.
Starting point is 02:11:45 So it's just like, most of my videos are shot in New York. And when I do that, when I bring them cameras around, I'm giving kids an opportunity to jump in front of that camera and do what you do. Show them, show them your talent, show them what you do, because that's what I was doing when those cameras was coming around. God damn. And also, and also, I love being in the city. I love being in the city because
Starting point is 02:12:12 I love when I seen you in the neighborhood or when I see Cam in the neighborhood or Jim Jones or, you know, these guys it was like something to look up to, inspire to be, so. No, I just got to ask that because the legends
