By the way, I was the fat Puerto Rican kid in a convertive room with Claring 560 with no shirt on with fucking chains on like this
Starting point is 00:09:15 in front of Willie Berger and leave the door open on purpose to see if you touch my shit. I want to stand to it. But the father had that store, man. That's what dreams are made of it. We was coming by. I came by this store a few times

Starting point is 00:16:37 and I always had the love for music so the fact that I'm able to create more life and energy around my brand doing something I always loved is a blessing. And for people to recognize it and embrace you. Obviously, you except Rocky, you guys have learned to diversify. Like with you, you know,

Starting point is 00:17:30 next to the guy. He happens to be the owner of Calvin Khan. And you're like, yo, man, we can do some fucking underwear together, some A-ZAP perfect. And that's how I go. So your fame and your music is the talking piece to get you
Starting point is 00:17:46 into those rooms. And you definitely, it seems like, you know how to do that. Everybody don't like do that. Some people are just born to be rappers. Some people are born to do shit. There's nothing you can do. I got friends.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Now, I come up in an underground hip-hop group. They don't want commercial lives. They don't want to watch them. They don't want commercial live. You know, I had to convince them when I walk with my ice. Who's 4 and 5 platinum all the time asking me to get in our shop shop. I had to have like a team meeting and they were like, yo, we don't rob. I just, you know.
Starting point is 00:18:24 I was like, yo, I was trying to come up. I could. But go to that. knowing how, what are the other guys? Like in the car, everybody's good. Everybody do what they do, Diamond is DJ. One of the greatest producers class, Rap is Diamond. He DJs the 45 joints out, Cull Up on his shows.
Starting point is 00:18:43 Finescent is doing this thing. He DJs and produced. He just produced the album like last year, two years ago. He did the remix. It's the Motterms. You got to check that shit out. So he did all that Marston Gage shit over hip-hop beats. Everybody OC, everybody out there in Buckwild.
Starting point is 00:19:00 But wow gig, y'all woke That's a Harlem classic Who it is? He was mad in the town, he was white, Then he would he now When he's father like, Oh
Starting point is 00:19:11 What? That fucking whoa! What did he say? That was about The same Rap, The Lector, The Lid Effect. Shoutouts to Denzel,
Starting point is 00:19:26 shoutouts to Tears. Nobody's doing it right now. Nobody, came together as a clique. I said like, y'all used to do it more so back on the days. A lot of rappers used to hang out together. You see freestyles were X, you, big pun, everybody.
Starting point is 00:19:41 Like, we don't really see the camaraderie like that. Like, not just doing music together, but hanging out and building together. And he would just build on it. He was coming to my sessions alive. You're knocking out four, five joint speed session. I'm coming to his session, the same thing. He was like, yo, let's just form this collectives
Starting point is 00:19:59 because we had so much energy together, we just wanted to put it out to the world and packaging. Am I? That was that native tongue, Batifamoli Love, Jungle Barbers, drop all quest, they lost the old.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Everybody, different crews, but everybody got together, and they made some mean classic. It was a nation. Like, yeah, that's not hip-hop was. So hip-hop, when I got turned off by hip-hop, and I moved to Miami,
Starting point is 00:20:27 which went, everybody started fight. I never forget. I'm sorry, guys. I don't want to keep bringing this up. Boy, I was your jersey. Throw the flag. Go to fly. I was your jersey in my jacuzzi.
Starting point is 00:20:42 And I'm listening to 9-7, and I hear even Joe Joe Jones or camera and say, yo, that nigga Nuz. Smack is cool for you off. That was it for me. That was like, yo, I pulled out a white flag. I said, we're moving to Miami. I can't take this shit no more.
Starting point is 00:20:57 Because they were violating pharaohs, the kings of Egypt in hip-hop. It just came a time when New York was just violating each other so much, where I was like, yo, I grew up. Let me tell you a fun fact that you don't know, something you never heard before. Right. If you look closely to Black Sheaves' Radio Engine Engine, Engine, now I'm one of the guys, y'all, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, back on the scene.
Starting point is 00:21:27 Chris get like an extra. I better find that. I'm honest. That shit better be loud. Everybody's video. Everybody was in mind when I did Flojo. Greg Nights came. Beat Nuts came.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Grant Bullbar came. Fucking Don the D. Finesse. Everybody came. And that was the first song I ever had out. We loved each other in hip-hop. We had a type of camaraderie that was just, We didn't care. It was competition.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Never can you, but it wasn't. It was like we want to see everybody grow, everybody win. We want to support letting our platform to everybody else. The shit got real funky out here. And so, you know, I went to Miami and started that. Or to McCallie, Pit Bull, Rick Ross, Little Wayne. Little Wayne came from Katrina. They all fucked up when he came to Miami.
Starting point is 00:22:21 I was the first one with open arms to welcome him and date. And we all working together, make the songs together, jumping out, I found that camaraderie while I was down there when I played all, making rains and all that. It was because everybody was working with each other up here. It was sort of like now. You know, it's like, I love social media, and I love to watch what's going on in the world, and I love to know.
Starting point is 00:22:48 But it's ugly out there. Everybody's just wrong, scouts, disrespecting each other, won't. Scott, I just be like, yo, wow. Now this, now it's like every day. You know, the phone, I don't know about y'all, but I wake up. Thank you, God, say my prayer, and I grab the phone. That's how I know. But I'm Jesse Jackson died. That's how I know canoos. That's how I know everything is going on for the day. Now, sometimes I tend, I pick it up. Oh, this girl saying, the other girl, this guy. He's saying, but it's a

Starting point is 00:23:54 You're throwing that place on like, y'all, I don't know. I don't know. I don't think I'll sign about nothing. If you slow your brain down a little bit, I was telling them for the episode, not even you to find it, James, that put it on the thing when we put the clips. That's the snafu fact.
Starting point is 00:24:15 I'm in that video. I'm in a bunch of videos. All of them are saying you were in remember the time. But what I just say is It was a time We all embraced each other You know what I mean So it's good that y'all got together
Starting point is 00:24:31 They got running at Coalition they got They got just making you You know you gotta make You know we had an artist on here She's short but feisty Lola Brooks And she said
Starting point is 00:24:43 She said I don't go to studio to make you hit Rick That's what me I go to make you hit Like if Fat Joe put out a record and you feel like he shot the video, he puts a bad thing they don't blow, no, I felt. I'm not playing with these people. I don't throw them off, but throw him out.
Starting point is 00:24:59 But she said she go in the studio and just make music because she got getting off out of her sister. Right. You know, and that's mean right there.

The story of the sports most consequential driver's strike. We have one man who, upon hearing that he was going to be fired, freaked out, and apparently climbed out the window of the bathroom.
Starting point is 00:28:31 And was Daniel Ricardo's illustrious F1 career, a success story, a cautionary tale, or some combination of both? He started getting all this attention, and he maybe started to think, I'm bigger than this, I'm better, and plenty of other mishapsed scandals and sagas that have made Formula One a delightful, decadent, dumpster fire for more than 75 years. Listen to No Grip on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:28:58 Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, host of the on-purpose podcast. I'm joined by Luke Combs, award-winning country music artist and one of the most authentic voices in music today. Luke opens up about success, self-doubt, mental health, and what it really takes to stay true to who you are when your life changes overnight. I hate fame, I hate the word celebrity, I hate those words, they 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.
Starting point is 00:29:31 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. My whole identity is that no matter what, I'm going to prioritize my wife and my children, over my job. I dread the conversation with my son. What do you think you'd say? Listen to On Purpose with Jay Chetty on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:29:59 In 2023, 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. Everyone thought they knew how it had ever. a verdict, a villain, a nurse named Lucy Lettby. Lucy Lettby 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 Lettby,
Starting point is 00:30:33 we 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 harm at every single level of the British establishment of this is wrong. Listen to Doubt, the case of Lucy Letby, on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. When it comes to y'all, right, so I didn't know much about movies and name, but yeah, he's them, yeah. Like, I didn't know Yem, could you describe how he became a part of the team and how he influenced the people? because I see y'all be having like Yams Day.
Starting point is 00:31:19 Yeah. And I see mad artists. Tell me they love Yance. Like, you know, on social media. So tell me about him and his contributions that I always sat there. So with Yams, he made Aesap, like he started Aesat along with Chus. And like a few other guys, Bari. Me and Rocky joined like two years later.
Starting point is 00:31:42 So it was just a collective of creative people. And it was like a bunch of teams out Harlem before. for Aesat. So Tiana was down with a crew called Team Nurt that she started that Yves was a part of. And I was part of a crew
Starting point is 00:31:54 called Harlem Mendi. Rocky was a part of a crew called Million Dollar Babies. And then when the crew started to fade out of Harlem we formed Aesat where we all came together as ASTAP. So, yeah, that's what he did.
Starting point is 00:32:10 So yeah. Because I see a lot of respect from a lot of high praise and stuff like that. And so I never I didn't know what he did. But Yams also worked with Dipset, and he worked with our early Max B.
Starting point is 00:32:23 So he used to, like, work with Karen Civil, pack up all the CDs. He used to be in the books, reading, like, all of the articles on music. So he was, like, I was like an R.
