But I'm talking shit. I'm young cocky, you feel me? Royce is a black M&M. No, that thing is insane. He put M&M to the same. That's a little. That's a little. We were putting him to the dog.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The fab's an asshole. So Royce responds with this battle called Who Got Body? He sends me shit, I'm like, cause it's not fair for a nigger to rap like this. It's later now so I can be honest. I'm like, because this niggas too good. Like I'm... I'm supposed to say to this.

With all the shit. Maybe even a little bit. Why that you? Why that? This was old school, pop down. You killed that. You killed that. You killed that. So he's good.

This Joe Button TV, this is the emphasis stage is a Joe Button TV. So he says, yo, fuck Mr. Fab, what I don't even know the clown nigger name. You know how he talked, right? So they get into it. We don't know how you talk. Me neither. Yeah. You do know how he talks.

You can do it exactly how he talked. So we, them niggas start cooking up. They started clicking up, like clicking up, like, all right, fuck this nigga. So they got, and it was like Megatron after that. Oh, so then Royce started it and then they added Joe. So Joe and Royce. Then Crooked and Joel.

Yeah. But Crooked is our guy, man. How ain't Joy on that bad one? Let's be clear, man. Let's be clear. All those men is our guy. Yeah, yeah. Joe, you know, he knows I always play with him

because we both got podcasts. Royce, my brother. That nigg is insane. Joal and Cooket. So big at all, but that, I can see your point. Okay, so, so exactly where you came. Like, if we talk about six degrees or six bars of separation, that was six bars of separation.

Like right there, just based off the fact of, it wouldn't have happened. Like, Short told me some shit one day, and I'm, we sitting up, you know, me and him got like a father-son relationship. Yeah, I see you call him pop. Yeah, that's pop, so much respect that. Like, this is my guy.

Let me take, let me stop you for a second. I so much respect that that, that you respect your OG in front of your OG. A lot of times people respect their OGs, but it's not in their face. So when they're not around, they were like, yo, that guy's a great guy, I fucking love him. But then when he around, it's like,

what's up, nigga, how you doing? Like, no, I kid you know, I caught that immediately. You kept up to pop. That's pop. And to me, you can't honor a man more than that right there. So I 100% salute you and respect that and not only salute you for that, but I salute you for being able to carry that. For sure. Just technically, I was a grown-ass man when they were little boys.

Yeah, I know. They were literally- You got a real life, I was coming to do ugly. You can tell you. You know, yo, yo, yeah. Speaking of the battle, I lost my first battle at his studio. He sick three rappers on me. It wasn't a real. That wasn't a real last one.

It was three against one. We were all the same family. It's like brothers, Spine. They weren't like three against one. You still taking it person. Hey, man, this is it. Listen, yes, that. You're mad.

You're mad. You're mad. You're not, no, no, because it was rap, Ron, rest in peace. He was the first Mr. Fab. No, yeah, they say Rade. I can't even touch Ron. He was the first Mr. Fav.

He was the one that could freestyle forever, ever, ever. Who's the nigga that got locked up recently? And I was out there. I had a show. A bay rapper? A bay rapper? Remember, I had a show on a ship, and the nigger got locked up, and the name was calling you.

A keek to sneak. Keek to sneak. Yeah, that's my brother. Now, you're all from Oakland, correct? Yeah, for sure. Definitely. All right. All right.

I'm going to start with short, but I want to pass it. I want to end it with you. But now, just subscribe, a person from New York, right? A person I've never been. Are we subscribing or describing? Huh? You said subscribe. Describe.

I don't even know what I'm talking about. All right. But, I have the meeting you want to. I love to. Take it out of you. I'm from New York, right? Subscribes is describing.

I'm a kid from New York. I've never been outside of Queens. I want you to paint a picture of Oakland for a kid that's from the Bronx or Brooklyn or, you know. When I go around the world, mainly around the country, and I notice other cities, the big cities, the wilder cities, the Chicago's and the Detroit and stuff, choice and stuff. The best way to describe Oakland is to say

there's this neighborhood that I don't know. To some people, it's the greatest thing in the world. It's the love of your life. And the other people, it is a fucking horror movie. And it's just that wonderful-ass city. It's that area that either

you're going to get off the bus, you're going to jump out of the freeway, or you're going to keep going. Because you don't get too many choices. You either going to do it. And it's not I love Oakland because I like, I love our Mexicans, I love our white people, I love our Asians. We all like, you ain't nobody

dominant, ain't nobody like, it's my city. Like, you fucking say that to some little Asian dude, he's going to fuck you to fuck up in Oakland. You know what I'm saying? Because it's our city. Because his city, it's a very diverse city. My favorite thing about Oakland is where the Hells Angels were born and it's where the Black

Pampas were born. And it's only population under 500,000. And it's also where Crack was born. Let's make some noise for crack. Hey, wait a minute. I don't know. No, they made you back to the first. Niggas ain't want to make no noise for that.

Niggas. Don't get that. Hold on, nigger. Don't get that. True story. Watch how historically get right here. Hold on. Hold on.

You don't know. Hold on before you go deep. No worry. What the fuck is the tiger ball got? We need some shit right now. Why we didn't get into the smoking arm, right? Yuck him out. You're going to build up.

I fuck with you. No. Let's get this. That's got a crack. They took this fucking formula from somewhere where we are right now down in SoCal. It's no fall. Is that accurate? Yeah, somewhere that all.

It came coming up in Mexico, Columbia somewhere there and they're testing it out with the CIA and George Bush Senior and all these motherfuckers. I don't know who all the way. Oh, they were out there. All the motherfuckers and O.G. Rick Ross and all them. They tested out. Oakland was one of the first testing grounds outside of the invention of it. Definitely. They came and said, well, if we think this is a working formula, let's go to Oakland and try it.

Oh, it works. I think that's basically saying Oakland invented crack let's make some noise oh look let's make some noise let me tell you open we invented ways on how to sell that shit facts we definitely did that let's make some noise for that too now now fast

to a kid from Arkansas Nebraska I don't even know if that's a place Arkansas Nebraska It's close They've never been to the Bay Area. I want you to describe the Bay Area for me. Music has been very influential in showing areas. If you listen to the Melvin Flint album, you listen to the War Report,

the depiction that you gave of what Queens was, of what Lefrak was compared to this city, to that city. Artists from cities have definitely painted portraits, very similar to the Picasso's and Leonardo's and things like this, Michael Angelo's. This nigga, getting smart. I'm not. He's not like Joe Buttig. I told you. He's a little. He's a battle rapper.

He's told me. So through art, there's been illustrations of the city. So to ask me that question, I would say, go listen to two short songs, City of Doe. Then I would say, go listen to Yuck Mouse first abolition song, City Addo. I don't know why I'm popped my collar. It just feels appropriate. For sure. I got to put my collar.

It feels appropriate. It's not from the OG. So what they were able to paint and what Oakland was, I was a young dude, young kid. Young kid. Like my mom ran a strip club, so I was 19 years old. That's how I know him. The young guy. He knew your mom?

She was the player. That's how I know him from the strip. So he knew me and young kid. The little kid in the gambling shop at the strip club, like, what is your young ass doing here? So I was really raised and influenced by the older guys. You know what I'm saying? So I paid attention to him.

To this day, I'm thankful for their experiences because it has shielded me from a lot of bullshit that I could have got into. Sometimes if you don't have no power, narrative, you only don't think negative. So I was able to take what they experiences and what they went through and use it for my life. So I paid attention.

And the reason why I say that, you could say their albums is what Oakland looks like, what the feeling is, even till this day. Just to make some noise of Mr. Fabricon. Come on. That's all. That was all. No, no, no. No, no.

But it feels like Oakland, to me, when it comes to hip-hop, is where the independence of hip-hop came to show. of hip hop music. Yeah, go there. Go there, let's go there. That's the next one. Let's go there, yeah. Yeah, I mean, yeah.

Absolutely. Yeah, I'm a kid from Michigan. I've never been out, right? What city in, what city in Michigan? Detroit, niggas are different. Detroit, yeah. No, Detroit. Let's pick.

I'm from Flint. I'm from Flint. When the water's dirty. Flint, where the water is dirty. I'm from Flint with the water is dirty. The niggas. The niggas is real. But I never traveled outside.

Okay. How can you describe Oakland to me? Detroit. Go to Detroit. On steroids. That was simple. On steroids. Detroit on steroids.

It's kind of like a lot of cities though, man. Detroit looked like Oakland flat out. Detroit and Oakland have the same mentality. It ain't the same look. Man, Detroit looks like West Oakland. The mentality is every fucking thing you do. The whole Detroit looks like West Oakland. Every fucking breath you take, every word you say, every step you take, everything you said by any thing you say by any thing.

thing you said by any motherfucker and it comes out your mouth live up to it you can't hide from it you can't run from it it's only this many of it's only this many blocks only this many schools seven miles look like San Pablo that's all I'm the same you can disappear in Detroit you can't hide in Detroit you can't hide in Oakland you can't hide for Oakland you can't hide for every Oakland you got to get out you got to go to Vegas can't hide in the town yeah you can't you can't hide what you said about me nigga but the thing about you know it The thing I'm going to tell you about open, the real thing is about open. We're a smaller city with three professional football,

uh, sports teams. We gotta put this out there though. The thing about open, what FAP would say blood in colors, because we never gang banged. Yo, this is very important, everybody. Please, pay attention. We never game back at home. One thing I noticed about, there's no gangs.

They showed up. It's a hustling city. They showed up, it just didn't make sense. In my high school, any LA dude that showed up with some gang banging stuff quickly got transferred and he was out of it, because he got beat up every day. But it wasn't really.

Listen to Who's With Me with with Debbie Chmell on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Is there an epidemic against literature? More specifically, black literature. Our books are being banned, scanned by AI, and destroyed. I'm Jack Quees Peace Thomas and on this season of the Black Lit podcast, we're outside asking some of the custodians of our stories, teachers, and our modern day writers. Why?

They don't want a whole bunch of little elevators, Michael Maxes and Martin Luther King running around. They want to build children who have no empathy. That's really the ultimate goal. We want books that don't make white kids feel bad. So is the war on literacy and information or our ability to connect? You want people to know how sexy reading is and how fun they could be and not always associated with education. It could be an escape.

It could be entertainment. And that is the beauty of reading. It can be all of those things. And considering this is Black Reading Month, the only real question is, what are you reading next? Listen to Black Lit from the Black Effect Podcast Network on our iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. The WNBA playoffs are about to begin.

The talent is insane and the personalities are giving main character energy. And of course, the fans love it. But 30 years ago, when the league first started, it was a different story. I remember sitting with a couple of male writers all whining about, oh, what are they going to do if they break a nail? No one's going to show up. But from the very beginning, there were two teams that captured everyone's attention. The comments were the real deal. I mean, come on.

The Liberty never gave up. They never stopped fighting. I knew that rivalry was going to be amazing from the beginning. I'm Kerry Champion, and this is biggest rivalries of all time, season two. The New York Liberty versus the Houston Commons, the very first rivalry of the WNBA. They picked us to finish last, and they picked them to finish first. That's all you need to know.

And then the guy who's doing the interview, he's like, hey man, we do this thing online. This is probably 0, 7, 8, 9, I don't know.

We do this thing online where we just do like little funny shit on our website only. He was like, if you was, like, I said, I want you to give Young Too Short some advice. Old Too Short, give Young Too Short some advice. That's kind of dope. I said I would tell myself some bullshit about, it was, it was foul in the context they repeated.

I was like, y'all would tell me something about how to make a little young girl who you young short dog. You're going to be a real player. How to be a real player, right?

Is there an epidemic against literature?

More specifically, black literature. Our books are being banned, scanned by AI, and destroyed. I'm Jack Weiss Peace Thomas, and on this season of the Blacklit podcast, we're outside asking some of the custodian. of our stories, teachers, and our modern-day writers. Why? They don't want a whole bunch of little elevators, Michael Maxes and Martin Luther King running around. They want to build children who have no empathy.

That's really the ultimate goal. We want books that don't make white kids feel bad. So is the war on literacy and information or our ability to connect? We want people to know how sexy reading is and how fun they could be and not always associated with education. It could be in a state.

It could be entertainment. And that is the beauty of reading. It can be all of those things. And considering this is Black Reading Month, the only real question is, what are you reading next? Listen to Black Lit from the Black Effect Podcast Network on our iHeartRadio app,

More specifically, black literature. Our books are being banned, scanned by AI, and destroyed. I'm Jack Quees Peace Thomas, and on this season of the Black Lit

podcast. We're outside asking some of the custodians of our stories, teachers, and our modern day writers. Why? They don't want a whole bunch of little elevators. Malcolm Maxis and Martin with the Kings running around. They want to build children who have no empathy. That's really the ultimate goal. We want books that don't make white kids feel bad. So is the war on literacy and information or our ability to connect? We want people to know how sexy reading is and how fun they could be and not always associated with education. It could be an escape. It could be entertainment. And that is the beauty of reading. It can be all of those things. And considering this is Black Reading Month, the only real question is, what are you reading next? Listen to Black

Lit from the Black Effect Podcast Network on our Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. The WNBA playoffs are about to begin.

Everybody to remember that drink champs is avitted to support our legends, to support people because I'm so tired of hip hop when a person gets so many times in the years in the game and they say, fuck that nigga, he's washed up. I hate that. Because relevant, it's only relevant to the people who say it's relevant. Nause fans is not relevant to Soldier Boy fans.

Soldier Boy fans ain't relevant than Noss fans. How could anybody use that word relevant? The word relevant shouldn't even be relevant. It's only relevant to whoever the fuck is relevant to. It shouldn't even be relevant. That's deep as fuck. And you got niggas like George. You got niggas like too short that's out here doing it.

The Bay Area is dope. I feel. I feel like counties, I feel like all that shit is limited because if you actually identify with the area, that area is yours. For sure. And for years, like, I don't want to say it like this, but Oakland kind of been mine for years. Identify with that. You get loved it.

Like, you know what I'm saying? I've been there. I'm telling you, I was there the night Matt Gray died and the nigger came to me and said, I'm going to step on your sneakers the whole night. We just danced at those. He's dancing, though. He said, he said, yo, I'm a New York, niggas, so I'm like, I don't know what that means.

But niggas said, mad to me. But he didn't say it like, bitch-ass, I'm stepping in your head. No, no, no, no, no. He said it with respect. I'm about to be dancing. And I'm like, oh shit, and I let that nigger step on my sneakers the whole night. That's almost a big thing, though, and the hypey thing, it was like. And, you know, listen, I'm like this.

I'm like, I'm dancing with him. I'm doing what the fuck he's doing? I'm right, live with you before you all like it. No, you're a dizzy. You're thin. I swear to God, but the thing was everybody had tears in their eyes. Like, because this, I'm the night Matt Dre died. That's a story, too.

You ain't right, you. You have to say some shit that let them know that. Drink Chan. We got to, who is this. We got it.

Because they could easily be prepared for that. You want to do it? So you gotta just throw out like some crazy orders or whatever. You want to do it? You want to do it. You want to say anything? Just start. You can't just say like regular ass.

Me on the same, we're chilling in the Bronx. It was Norrie, it was M, it was M dot. It was the brother, you know, we started doing package shit.

It's all for all you all that's slave trafficking. Let me think again. So we was in New York, started drinking then. Late night four nights.

Queens niggas, Oakland, niggas, on the corner. What? 60 niggins swear. Was we on the corner? Niggins, so he saw, so he's smoking water. Blowing Big Jane talking marijuana.

That's how long me and nor are you been really with this something. And if a nigger play with us, we stick in like it sucks shit.

So if you drink champs, nigger, then you're fucking cousin. I'm gonna be honest. That's, you gotta, you know, you gotta have that moment. That's- You gotta have that moment. You, you, you killed that. Yeah, and that was the first time to drink chants. First time, drink chants. You hold the title.

Right, right, right. That's the same nigga that know everybody's living in the whole city. He's on. This, you know, the little kids. No, no, I want to make, though. What was your graduation? Which were what? Kindergarten.

I can't know if you did. They're thinking on everybody. I want to make that trophy. Let me say something. Let me say something. Let me say something. I apologize for cutting anybody off. But when we started this, when we were my partner, DJEFN,

we wanted to give a platform for people that have over 10 years, have over 15 years, have over 20 years. Because so many people write us off, they say, fuck y'all niggas like you know we're gonna go on it to young young young young young 30 years right here this what i'm trying to say so when when we we need to big each other up we need to continue this type of energy you understand i'm saying benzino i know you my friend and i probably never said it on but i i respect what you did i respect what you represented I respect how you implicated your fucking business.

The source means very fucking much to the world. Nice for the source. That's nice for the source. That's nice for most for the source. Too short. Same fucking exact thing. Absolutely, man. I'm gonna be honest.

I always, in my mind, called myself, I'm the East Coast too short. Like, I just ain't pit bitches. You had that on me. I didn't, I didn't, I did, it wasn't me. But, you know, Mr. Fad, all your endeavors you did, y'all, you guys been around forever and sustained the time of life.

I want to personally look at you face-to-face man and man to say thank you. Thank you. I want to personally look at you face-to-face, man, and say thank you. And the same thing, sure. You know why? Way back. Way back.

Because fuck that. If nobody else ain't going to salute, hip-hop and I got a platform. Yeah, I'm forced it. Give me this moment. Pop your color, pop your color, bro. I definitely got to come up. But listen, because you know why, I'm hip-pop. One day I had a meeting with Leo Colnes, and Leo Combs said,

if I cut you, would you, would you bleed? I said, bleed, bleed, bleed, nigg. I bleed, bleed, me. And then he said, he said to me, He said to me, asked me the same question. And I said, I cut you right now, Leo, would you bleed? He said, sucker MC. I was fucked me up, fad.

I was fucked up. This nigga that, man. This nigga, this nigga, he was blacker than me in this moment. So then he- That's some gangsters shit, my nigga. So I said to myself, I said, oh, shit. This is what we got to do. now. We gotta actually bleed hip hop.

Yes. So when you ask me, come on ask me Mr. Fad. If you cut you. What you're going to? Super Thaw. What? I answered it appropriately now. But this is what I'm trying to say, fuck that shit.

We're from different coasts. And guess what? I identify with your hood. Just the same way I identify with my hood. I hit a corner with niggas. I hit a corner all that. I had no idea what the fuck hitting a corner of what. But he was so serious, he said,

you're going to hit a corner with him, you know what I'm like, damn, I don't do a cup of drugs. But maybe, hey, this shit was profound. He's thinking he's thinking drug. No, I'm going to hit a corner. He said, I don't do the . I'm not going to hit it. I'm not going to hit it.

He asked me to hit a corner, y'all, yo, yo. I said, oh, my. On the side. And just sit on a man, I'm like, I'm like, hit a corner of me and go somewhere. I don't do that. And then he pulled out of those, Casper Dr. And then he was so convincing.

And I was like, I'm a man, I'm gonna hit a corner with you. I'll never know what this is. And then it was like, it's just you and your man. And then Mike moved up to the back. I said, and then the OG nigger jumped in the back. I said, my nigga from my hood. And then, listen, mind you, they're introducing me, like, this is priest.

This is all. This is cream. I'm hitting the corner with cream. Oh my God. I work way too hard. Oh, no, that's enough for you. That's enough. Yeah.

That's enough. Yeah. Especially if you don't drink like that. Yo, this is how real y'all is. The y'all are like, I'm doing it. I'm not going to say all of that, but I probably did. But in my mind, I'm like, these niggas, I'm thinking we're going to do a hit right now.

I said, Mr. Fabb. I don't know. I think he'd take my rap's way too serious. I'm stupid, man. I don't want to shoot nobody, you guys. He's stupid. Can you take your little brother, relax? But he said, hit a corner.

I said, fuck it, I'm hitting the corner. I don't know what it is. I'm not hit the corner. He's hanging out. He's hanging out. Yeah, I'm from the East Coast. I'm thinking hitting a, give me in the gun. I understand what we're doing right now.

You go, man. I'm just, hey, he's going, br. I'm so. I'm so sorry. Listen. Can we should I shout out to the little niggas, man? The little niggas. Yeah.

Little yie. The little niggas, I feel like the little niggas got us kind of fucked up a little bit. Oh, man on that. O.G. be judging the little niggas. And the little niggas is like, man, I swear to God, man. I love you niggas getting money. I love you niggas being original. I love you niggas doing it your way.

It's a weird little argument that OGs keep saying. They don't like the new shit. A little niggis can say move out the way. Pete Rock is going out. But those are just personal little shit that tick you off a certain way. But I swear to the guy, man, making a hit is making a hit. Making hip-hop rhymes and shit that make people love, yo. That shit is just is what it is.

You can't, ain't no fucking generation in God. Sure, you never had, you never had, you never had like a problem with the young guys. You know what? I think this guy always say really, that's why this epic is, niggas in the bag. Don't blame this shit on us. No, you don't know what I'm saying. Listen to my perception. dirty, dark secrets again.

I'm never gonna reveal no secrets. It's not my game. No, because you gotta reveal the secret. Because I didn't know that. But the history between two short and the loonies, it stems from, you know about the war? It stems from, he said they battle. They were.

You know what? You're gonna do you guys and two short? Remember, he started off the three. We got to see this right here for the mayor. It's monumental? Nakes is epic, my nigga. Them niggas didn't fuck with each other. Like, yeah.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. They fucked with each other, didn't you? Fuck that. Doing the whole shit we fuck with each other. This is epic. Yo, they beat my executive producer up like. Oh. Day? Like two short peoples?

I don't know. Oh no, I don't know. He said day. You gotta use whatever. They were like, they were like annually. It was like every event. Boo-bo-bo-bop, but they didn't touch us. They were, my executive producer, got hands, feet, everything.
