I'm on a mission to reclaim the word Solita, trading the pity for possibility. Listen to Solita on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm excited to your point. This is not us going getting anything new. This is a project that Hustle and Beno did together. He handed this music to me and just appreciative that we can be releasing it right now to the public. Yeah, yeah, what up, y'all?
Starting point is 00:02:45 Joe Crack the Dawn. You know who it is, your boy, Jena. You know what it is? The Joe and Jada show, every show legendary, every show iconic. You should tell by the guests, we're displaying,
Starting point is 00:03:00 we got you by the throat. It is nothing you can do about. We're never going to stop. When you think of today's guests, you think of two men carrying something bigger than themselves. One is helping protect the legacy that still inspires the whole culture.
Starting point is 00:03:20 The other is a part of the creative bond that helped bring that vision to life. This is about a brotherhood. It's about respect and keeping the spirit on the marathon moving. Please welcome Black Sam and Bean on the John. Appreciate you brothers for coming through.
Starting point is 00:03:46 What's going on? To tell the world what we got, what can we expect? What's going on with this project? Dang, those old time coming, and we decided to, you know what I'm saying? You'd be here. I'll let you all of you all of you was a lot. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? But, you know, I got to put a dean to the side of this mission.
Starting point is 00:04:05 Yeah, a good problem. I mean, in a good way, it's like you get to be in the machine and carry the torch. Yeah, it gets an honor and it's a blessing for me. And my brother, Sam, you've been your business since your whole, keeping things in cahoots, keeping the marathon going, keeping the legacy of Nip active and live. His shoes are not easy to fill up. Like Bro said, we got an obligation.
Starting point is 00:04:34 So I'm honored you be able to do that. Crack always got the stories with me. Before Nip actually, when he was still making his bones, and still putting in his work before he actually blew, I knew about them early, so I wanted to do some work with him. Shout out to my man Steve Fault. Pressing piece to ice pick. Rest in piece, the nip.
Starting point is 00:04:53 A colon for a single, it ain't nothing new. Naked a fool over here by itself. Can in the video, he chill with me, or his style is his super air. Showed up. Shotty shit. Those that know, they know that that's a smoker right there. But I'm just glad I got the link with them early,
Starting point is 00:05:15 before the bandwagon in the whole world. Everybody went nip crazy as they should have. But man, I'm not as good, genuine shit early under the radar with just solidness, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:05:27 And even with you, you always show me a lot of my go about a marathon. I mean, I needed some bud before the plane. He gave me enough to open enough shop with. Like, Sir Sam, I need something. I got a flight and dug out. He came back with the mother loan of him.
Starting point is 00:05:45 I just actually finished. You were bringing it on the plane? Did I? Could you? I'm just saying, could you? Sure, dude. It's like legal war? Sure.
Starting point is 00:05:54 He gave me in and Kelly. I just finished it in my grit. Steve Lobel gave me a whole bunch of fucking weed. I don't even fucking smoke. Nah, I told the nigga, they can keep that shit over there. I was like, yo, I ain't going through TSA with that shit. I said, no, I'm a eye.
Starting point is 00:06:11 I met your brother with Steve Lobel. he was young, young, young, young, young, young. He was in the Bronx with us hanging out. It's so weird, we ain't got pictures of that because I seen one of his men's over here, too, that was out there. And, man, I met him mad young. When he was mad young, I thought he looked like Snoot.
Starting point is 00:06:34 Right? I was like this, and they was telling me, yo, he's going to be a star. He was mad, cool. We hung out with him. And then the rest is history. You know, we just cross paths all the time, you know, different parties, different situations. And he always was intelligent to me, very, very smart, very, very aware and business savvy. You know, shit, he wasn't talking about what niggas is talking to me about in the party.
Starting point is 00:07:03 He's talking about some other shit. Yo, this, you ever heard of the Black Godfather music? Clarence, Y, I'm like, yo, my man. Nick, I barely party. He's talking that smart shit in the party. And so, uh, salute to him. And, um, and so you out here rolling this up, you know, as an executive, tell us how y'all linked up and why you felt, you know,
Starting point is 00:07:30 want to come out here. We made it feel time to release the project. Well, you know you got to come here to promote it. No, no, I'm just saying, coach, I'm sure you can. get in you outside, you selling burgers, you're getting 36,000 demos a day.
Starting point is 00:07:49 Like, he can't even go. This ain't one of the host projects. This is the in-house family. I understand, but how did this come about? And why did you say, y'all, I'm going to go out there and I'm going to show my face and I'm going to co-sign this project
Starting point is 00:08:02 to the highest level because I'm sure, you know, everybody and their mother probably telling you made a next nipsey hustle or some shit like that. So this project is something that Brod, the Hustle did with Bino, and Hustle gave it to me a while ago after a victory lap. Basically, like, bro, it's the next project.
Starting point is 00:08:23 Like I told a couple people before, like, anytime I get music from Bro, I know it's a masterpiece. They don't want to hear what I got to say and critiquing it. He's like, man, watch you. This is done. So when I get it, I'm excited. And I'm like, all right, this is, it's over. He's like, yeah, this is just the album, tell me what you think.
Starting point is 00:08:40 So I listen to it. And as the team, and we're going crazy. And so that's this project, everything that happened. It didn't come out. And at the time, the family and the team, and me personally, I'm like, I don't even want to talk about music. You know, you know how people that's not part of the family or the team close. Like, oh, it's the best time to drop.
Starting point is 00:08:58 You've got to do it now. And you want to hear that. And Beano and his team, they like, bro, whenever it's right, it's here. And so nobody did, nobody leaked nothing, nobody put nothing out. It's just, you know, when the time is, right. So I think maybe about what, like a year ago, we kind of reached out to everybody and they team like, man, what you guys think? They're like, man, let's go. And so I just felt like it may be the right time to listen back to the music and let's figure this out. And so
Starting point is 00:09:25 that got us here, you know, sat down with everybody, the producers, Beano, Beano team, out the blue and all money in. Our whole team came in with all hustle producers and everybody just re-listened to the project. He had already sequenced it together. with Beano, they picked the artwork. It was really ready to go. And so we just kind of, they had already sent it to Ali to mix a master. So it was kind of like just,
Starting point is 00:09:51 let's look and see is it any pieces that could be missing? And then Hustle had some old songs on a playlist, and then they had some old songs, and I got insight from them. They're like, No, Hustle was thinking about, Wino was thinking about putting these songs on this project. So I think we may have added like three or four to the original sequence
Starting point is 00:10:12 and then this is what it is man but I'm excited to your point this is not us going and getting anything new. This is a project that Hustle and Bino did together. He handed this music to me and just appreciative that we can be releasing it right now to
Starting point is 00:10:27 the public. And I know Bino got so much more stories about the bits and up. Yeah I'm saying like what made Nipti see the talent in you and say it's one of the ones, niggas. I mean, honestly, bro, I asked myself that. I had to stop asking myself that.
Starting point is 00:10:44 You know what I'm saying? Like, when we linked, you know, it was me and my bro tight. You know, we was trying to do this music thing. Of course, we saw Sam and Nip and All Money End just, you know, the whole campaign, the marathon had been, that been a thing. So we was fans of it, you know? So we always wanted to carry ourselves, you know what I'm saying, conduct ourselves a certain way in this music.
Starting point is 00:11:03 So we always said if we had to link up with anybody, you know, it would be, you know, all money in, for sure. It would be Nip, you know what I'm saying. One day we got that call, bro, off my bro. Shout out Casey Veggies off Casey Funk. And he called me and it's Nip. You know what I'm saying? So I'm like, damn.
Starting point is 00:11:18 Like, if I put up to the studio, we're there every day after that. You know what I'm saying? It's just constant workflow. Next thing you know, you know what I'm saying? He's liable to come out. Let's just do this tape, you know? It just happened like that. Dagnically.
Starting point is 00:11:31 As to why he believed or he, you know what I'm saying? Trust me enough to do that. I don't know, bro. Because you, you. I appreciate that. I appreciate that. I appreciate that. I appreciate that.
Starting point is 00:11:39 You chose you. That's real. That's real. But, you know, YG was over here last week. And YG said the same type of shit. Like, like you just, they just connected, went in the studio and started banging out music. Like, he was like, yo, Nipsey was like that. He just showed up to the studio and we just started working.
Starting point is 00:12:01 And that's great that you got. I ain't got none of that shit. Ain't no B-N-No nowhere pulling out Fadjo died a day. It ain't no album nowhere. guys. I ain't got no extra music or nothing. That's just pretty incredible that you got a whole project
Starting point is 00:12:16 that you came over. She was already done. That's fine. They just had to do a little bit of tweak and that's like a blessing within a blessing. Yeah. I mean,
Starting point is 00:12:24 like bro said, we was prepared to, you know what I'm saying, follow up with this after the victory left, you know, so, you know, everything happened,
Starting point is 00:12:31 how I happened. You know, do some shows you're going to do? I'm with all of that. You know what I'm with every, I feel like possibilities is endless. now that we're putting the music out, you feel me, we got over that hump, but even us
Starting point is 00:12:42 giving the fuck to even get here, you know what I'm saying, or even being in the right head space. So, you know, we're here now, so we'll see where it's taking. I remember when I was out there, we was talking, you was telling me, Marathon expansion. Yeah. You're coming over. You're coming on this side.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Yeah, yeah, we got something on Times Square. We're working on it right now, man. You tell you some, you're selling a lot of burgers because that shit about $150,000 a month, that motherfucker rink. on Tom Square. Man. You know, I know the rents, man.
Starting point is 00:13:13 That shit a whole lot over there. Yeah, we got lucky, man. One of our guys that we know that was real close with bro, had an opportunity. And he called on the same thing. I'm like, man, I don't know if we can afford that right now. And he's like, look, I'm grandfathered in. I got a situation.
Starting point is 00:13:29 I got a... Wow. I got a least that's, you know, where it need to be. I'm like, what... I'm like, how much is it? He told me. I'm like, all right, let me pulling up. So, you know,
Starting point is 00:13:39 God be throwing things in our laps, really. And so when I seen where it was, too, I'm like, oh, this is a no-brain. So you end up doing a certain situation, and you're remodeling it right now. We're going to open it up. But to your point, it ain't going to hang us with the price. That shit. I went looking, because you know, I own sneaker stores, I went one time looking at that shit.
Starting point is 00:13:58 I was like, you know, guess what? We can't sell enough sneakers. This shit. Right, right. His shit, out of control, $150,000 a month. We got the hook up for $120. I'm like, niggas ain't buying them sneakers like that. This shit's out of year.
Starting point is 00:14:12 We ain't doing that. But it's good that you found a great spot. Actually, is beyond a blessing. And why, out of all things, you chose a restaurant or like a burger joint to open up as a business venture? I think everything for us, it'd be kind of like organic and natural. and when we get signs, I always, from, you know, hustle myself, our team,
Starting point is 00:14:43 we always want to just activate on the signs. So we're doing clothing, and our whole team was kind of watching this smash burger. Explosion. Shout out the Trilburger. Yeah, for sure, Trill Burger was. Tril Burger got some good-ass burgers, too. You never had a marathon?
Starting point is 00:15:02 I never went to marathon. I never been able to go. Trill was one of the inspirations. You're watching them, and then we're seeing all the things that they're doing. So we, like, man, we got to get one of them. So I think at ComplexCon, we got some of their stuff. And then we just seeing it go on the internet. And then we just start going on the tour, on a burger tour, our team.
Starting point is 00:15:25 What we're doing for lunch, we all go. And we just organically rating them, like, which one you like the best? I like, they meat better, but they bread. I don't know. I like that bread. And then we're talking and something just hit. I'm like, man, we do. to make our, we need to make a marathon burger,
Starting point is 00:15:38 like what we like about that, that, that, that, and add our twist. And then once we start thinking that, I'm like, I just remember, you know, Hustle used to work at a restaurant. And then Hustle did something with the fat burger. He wanted to name it a marathon burger. He was always talking like, man, we need to do this, do this. I'm like, this what we're going to do.
Starting point is 00:15:56 And so once that, once that happened in our head, we was like, this shit bankrupt us. We're going to get this, we're going to get this first one off, regardless. We got that motherfucker off, at least his, grandbys, I was watching us. Damn, they put that shit out the park, which is great. Because a lot of times
Starting point is 00:16:13 when, and the artist passes away, you know, their family are left there like don't know the business or don't know where to take it or don't know where to. So we got to commend you for being a great businessman to keep the legacy forward because
Starting point is 00:16:31 you can't expect everybody to just know how to create a business or keep a legacy going. And what y'all been able to do has been pretty amazing to watch. You know, and so we've been watching you, man. And y'all been doing your motherfucking thing. And the burgers look good. Fadjo got, you know, I got to come through and just, because I'm Fad Joe, I invest this
Starting point is 00:16:56 shit by here. Tell us about the docu-s series. I got a docu-series coming. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we've been working on that, man. We've been working on that for a while. That's the most important thing. For us, it's going to be like eight or nine episodes.
Starting point is 00:17:10 And just to cement legacy and put things, you know, etchered in stone. We've been hearing me personally, man, I've been just hearing all type of slander and felonious bullshit. You know what I mean? So just keeping me sane and not going on, everything. It's like, man, we work. And when this come out, it's going to be like that. This is what it is. This is come on, man.
Starting point is 00:17:35 It's documented, man. We got hustle. We got, we really been blessed, man. We got hustle on every stage, like what bro was saying, like, young, we got hustle. When he first learned how to make beats, when he had a ball fade, when he was a teenager, we got footage from everything. And it's documented in this. And so everybody who see the footage, like, oh, man, this is crazy.
Starting point is 00:17:58 I know what y'all got. We, you know, so that's kind of like the main focus for me in the team is like, we got to put this one down. And this just tells just the whole journey. It's there. And the goods, the bads and the struggle and make people like people love hustle and respect hustle. And they only really know maybe like 10%. So when you see it, when you really see it, and I'm a fan,
Starting point is 00:18:21 and hustle was a real fan of documentaries. So one thing, like we don't like hearing people just talk about it. We want to see it. And we want to see different people have the same accounts in different walks of life. So you got the grandmas, the aunties, the smokers, the kids. everybody you got everybody going to say the same exact thing and we got the proof you know you got you see everything in it and so for me it's very important that we let that speak and and when that come out i think it's just going that shit going to sweep all the awards just going to do everything you need to
Starting point is 00:18:52 do because it's really crazy when you take a step back even with us editing everybody from our team people that just kind of met hustle and was working with him from victory lap they seeing that footage and like, whoa, we've never seen hustle like this. And I'm like, oh, then, that's right. Yeah. I forgot. Y'all don't even really know that. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:12 Yeah. Can we expect that? Y'all still working on it? Yeah, it's almost finished. I think, you know, our shit has got shelf for a minute, and we're coming out the pocket trying to keep it going ourselves. And then we just got Allen Hughes to come on and help us executive produce it. So it's close.
Starting point is 00:19:32 You already know when it's a real moment. You need a real bottle. That's why we rock with 1800 tequila. You heard me? These people been making tequila for 11 generations. That's right, 11. That's a legacy. That's OG status.
Starting point is 00:19:49 OJ. They were the first to introduce a Nejo set the standard before most of these brands even existed. And you could taste the difference for real. The 1800 Cristolino and Repasado was what we've been on lately. Move, clean. Elevate. No burn, no rough edges, just a premium poor that speaks for itself. You know when there's something that's just built right? That's what this is. Real talk, that's just what it is. It's always around for the best nights, the wins, the celebrations, to remember that night's story.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Whether you're keeping it low-key with the crew or you're pulling up to a big event, 1800 fits every setting. It ain't trying too hard. It's just that. 1800 tequila, real legacy. Real smooth, that's the moot. True, true, true. One.

On Solita, we share the messy stories of traveling alone as a woman.
Starting point is 00:23:24 Your duolingo is not going to come back to you when a man is inside of you. No. I'm Julie Pinheiro, and I travel by myself because it's a rare space where I can say yes without asking anyone else first. I'm on a mission to reclaim the word solita, trading the pity for possibility. Every time I tried to be alone, I kept meeting people, and they were like, you smiled at us. Not a lot of people smile around here. I can wait four hours for the next bus, or this random dude is offering me a ride on his motorcycle. It's when you're alone that you're most receptive to the world as it is and not the lies you're sold about it.

Starting point is 00:25:12 And every fucking hood. You think about Kobe Bryant and Nipsey Hustle and you got a brand new project coming with him. How does that feel? Do you pull up to a fucking mural or wall, a giant war of Nipsey
Starting point is 00:25:27 and just talk to him or something? How does it feel to have some shit like that coming out where the guy that's so immortalized like that in L.A. like that. Like that's got to be some other shit.
Starting point is 00:25:41 Yeah. No, it's surreal, bro. You know, but I feel like, you know, just my feelings overall just kind of outweigh that. You know what I'm saying? Because it's like a nigger morning,
