is only accelerating the process of de-dollarization, which in a way is jargon for people turning away from the dollar.

In Virginia. Anyway, let's talk about, all right, so I can explain to you my career. I don't know about JD's career, you know, he's been doing, he been flying consistent, but for me, right? my career is like one of them guys you see in baseball like big poppy Ortiz or the guy from Toronto I even hit the shit out the park grand slam or I swing and miss and fall on my face so my career there's been times where I'm number one in America yeah and there's other times where I'm flopped mania and then now you looked in and you got to get back I remember one

one new year's eve I'm in my mother's house rest of peace that I'm watching a like the, you know, we grew up watching the Happy New Year on TV. Now, I remember I was sitting there, my mom saw I said, I was cold as fucking. I said, next year, I'm on the Happy New Year's shit. You better watch. I'm going to be on that 10, 9, 8, and the next year I was dead with a fucking Burgundyva lawsuit. But you, it seems like you 14 years, you went hot, cool door for little this, this,

that. Tell me about that whole. transition. When you said that shit, I felt you for real, for real. Like, I think that it's a mental thing, too. Like, with us, we feel like that.

Like, even when we cold, we steal hot. Because I was just about to say, like, you ain't never not been that nigger to me. You know what I'm saying? So you might feel like that. And I feel like that, too. I felt like that many times. Like, you know what I'm saying?

It's like, especially with my career. Thank you, my shit. Yeah. Give you the right hand, bro. For the guards. For sure. You got to go right hand so this shit don't go left. Man, somebody told me that yesterday, I'm sticking with it, for sure.

But anyways, I'm saying, Alette to say, like, with me, my career especially, like, I definitely, it's been like a roller coaster, like, like, hot as fish grease and shit to cool off and get cold or slow down. But it's like, you just really can't stop. You just got to stay at this shit. Go to the studio, figure this shit out. The name of the game is rap. So it's like, they're going to love you. Then they might hate you, but they're going to love you again if you put some shit out.

Tell you put some shit out that's hard, and they're going to fill it. I'm saying, like, and that shit, like, what that nigga, what that nigga missed they said, long as the streets, it's filling in, a nigga like me could sell it, like, just got to put this shit out, just keep going for real. So with me, and I've seen that, though, like, from my perspective, looking at the world and the outside, like, I've seen people count me out for like, oh, yeah, it's over with herbal trash, herbal garbs and this, and me, mentally, I know I can rap. I know I'm one of the hardest niggas to get in front of a mic, for sure.

So it's like, that just fuel my fire. I seen that shit, and I, and I, like, the same way you said, like, next. shit, I'm gonna do this. Like, I really had a real plan and I saw that shit out. Like, I'm like, man, next year I'm dropping as much as I can. You feel me? I got a lot of shit in order in my life mentally and my personal life, family

shit, getting through that shit, business shit, all of that shit. But in the midst of all that fire, I still went to the studio and I had a plan. I had a strategy. Like, I'm feeling record my hardest shit and put this shit out and the streets are going to fill it. Tell me if I'm wrong, right? Because you grew up in the real

street shit and it feels like you had a point where you like, all right, I know what I got to do to get to this next level I got to do and it feels like you telling the homie, yo, chill, let me do what I got to do. Yeah. That's one of the hardest things

to do, especially if they're alleged killers and they're crazy, they're this and this and this. I really had to do this. Like, I'm not lying. I think that Joe invented the entourage. Yeah. Like, I think,

I invented that shit. The untow. Don't throw no flags. I'm telling you truth. If you come my era, Fat Joe might be one of the first guys you ever seen with 40 guys that look like they don't leave the block

missing these niggas are animal. Yeah. I had to. Tell them, yo. You can't come. Fall back. Wish me luck. If I make it, you might need something.

Yo, this is the hardest shit to tell a group of animals. No. Alleged you kill. Heavy on the animals. You got to say. that. No, animal, savages.

Yo, listen, let me go. And some of them get mad at you and you tell a man, I have one of my men that I don't want to talk too deeply, but my man was Kingpin. And that's my man. I mean, I grew up with him

and this, this, now. I had to explain to the nigga. I say, yo, you fat, Joe brother, you out here moving all type of shit. I'm trying to be legit. They're going to run me and some Rico shit with you.

You too big out here. It's actually better for you To stay away from Fat Joe Because I'm over here on Billboard Doing whatever I'm doing And you, and he never, to this day He never understood what I was trying to tell him I'm trying to tell him

It's like a nigga, you know, you get caught You'd be like, all right, come out the closet now We're caught now Yo Johnny, get out the speaker box We're caught It's like, yo bro, we don't all got to get caught And so it's hard for do to understand, yo, I have an opportunity, a generational opportunity that one day you might need

a favor from me. Let me go. It happened to me. I'm talking about me. I'm staring down the barrel, meaning two eyes of a stone cold killer, telling them, yo, I love you, Chagito, I can't do it. You know, I didn't, you can't beat up my fans. You can't, this, this.

That doesn't work for me. I'm looking, please just hope I make it. I hear that in like your interviews and all that. Where you were at that transition and how's it going for you? I'm in a good space now, like mentally with this, like, the shit. You are? What about them? Not all, everybody here or no.

I was just fin of say, like, for real, for real. Everybody ain't going to get it. They ain't going to get it. Let them say there's a jewel that young niggas out of here. No, for sure. They ain't going to all understand it. Like, the same shit you're saying, I'm telling. Like, I'm looking at you.

And only certain niggas can really say that, that you had to do that, that you really had to, like, separate yourself from this shit because you really going to either die or go to jail, especially when you're running with niggas like that. Like, I used to have 100 niggas at my shows, too, 100 niggas, 50 niggas on the road, all this shit. Like, I really, that shit is the proof is in the pudding. That shit on paper.

Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, even the dude. that and to be able to, like, separate yourself from that and be able to look at a nigga that's really in the streets, that's a stone cold killer, a savage, whatever it is, and be able to say that, you got to have that shit in you, too. You feel me? Like, I ain't never had no fear in my life. When you get to a certain point and you see, like, because I didn't understand what I was doing

either. Like, I didn't understand I was going to be this big. But when I became this big and I realized, like, damn, I'm doing some shit that I could change everybody life, your life, my family life, everybody life. You know what I'm saying? And that's when you start realizing, like, niggas will be on some shit. Like, they don't understand or they don't get it. Nigger will be on some shit like, oh, you're a bitch.

You're punking out. You're doing this. You're doing that. When you had those type of conversations, you got to tell a nigga. Like, bro, if you don't stop doing this shit, you're going to go to jail or you're going to die for real, for real. Like, nigger be naive to the fact, you know what I'm saying? It's like me, I've never been naive to anything I was doing. When I was in the streets, I knew for a fact, the shit I'm doing, the shit I'm doing this shit.

You know what I'm saying? It's like, and you got to have them conversations with niggas. It's like you just, you can't do it. It's no way possible to really have one foot in this industry and one foot in the streets. That shit is interesting. That's what I tell them all the time. You know, I'm real connected to Chicago.

Yeah. But I don't know if you know, right? And, nah. You're old enough? I don't know if you know what time it is, right? No, on another level. Yeah. Okay.

And it's so hard to walk two blocks. Yeah, no, it should. I'm not talking about the young shit we see, It just gang, you can't walk two blocks in Chicago. Yeah, no, for real. That shit sounds crazy, but it's for real, though. In my neighborhood, we growing up, like, you can't. Like, we would be in a spot, chilling, hanging out, smoking weed, playing the game.

Niggas then left the spot and got shot going to the corner store. Two fucking blocks. I want to know why they want to kill niggas 40 below zero. Yeah. It's 40 below zero. It's cold. Are you watching A little bit, Jack?

Are you watching with binoculars out the window to see if homie go to the corner store in 40 below zero? I did a wedding for Eddie Robinson. He used to be in the NBA, my man. I think that's in the Hetty Rod. He had a wedding in the shot. Not Eddie Robb.

The fat dude used to be on the next. No. Not Kerry. He was from the shot too. He was from the shot, too. Yeah, he robbed. I did his wedding. Now, I think I forgot.

Not so bad. I'm just saying, it's bad as fuck. I'm talking about it's not so bad with, like, the way your head is. The head is. Like, that's not as bad. It was a real. Your era, like, you couldn't even think about wearing your head right or left if you ain't know what you had going on.

Yo, I knew that one thing I knew that my mother and father always taught me since I was a kid is, yo, tell him you got a lawyer. I knew this even if you didn't have a lawyer. My pop's told me. We didn't have a lawyer. We couldn't afford one. We couldn't afford one. I'd be like, yo, I know my rights.

And cars moving cars Going down the street He lived on a busy street We just doing that shit for like an hour But just how we got arrested Our dumb ass We got bored and started dropping the bricks On the cars on the street

So that was how we got caught because it's like they're coming from down. You could tell somebody doing this shit from this building from the top of the shit. And somebody called the police. Police came, got in the building. And probably one of the tenants was like, man, that's the bad ass right there on the second floor.

Like, you feel me? They came locked by us up. That was the first time I was shit. My man, through a party in this house, his mother and father was out of town. They locked all of us up. I was maybe, I would say 13, 14, but they locked 20 niggas the whole party.

The Big Take podcast from Bloomberg News dives deep into one big global business story every weekday. A shutdown means we don't get the data, but it also means for President Trump that there's no chance of, bad news on the labor market. What does a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich reveal about the economy? Our breakfast foods are consistent consumer staples, and so they sort of become outsize indicators of inflation. What's behind Elon Musk's trillion dollar payout? There's a sort of concerted effort to message that Musk is coming back.

He's putting politics aside. He's left the White House. And what can the PCE tell you that the CPI can't? CPI tries to measure out-of-pocket costs that consumers are paying for things, whereas the PCE index that the Fed targets is a little bit broader of a measure.

I knew I was out my leave. By the fifth brother? Yeah. Fuck out of you. Yeah, no. But a lot of niggas don't come from that. Everybody. Let me cut you out.

Wait, a lot of niggas don't come from that where it's like growing up having a fight, you got to fight three brothers, four cousins. Like, I used to have to do that. Like, I used to, my big brother, I swear, I wish he was in here right now. I got into a real physical, but first time and the only time I ever fought my brother in life, my big brother. Oh, it's your brother. My big brother, because this nigger made me fight four people in one day.

Like, this nigga made me every, some little niggas with him. He came and got me out the house. I ain't know what's going on. He beat their ass. I told a story like, I fought three of their ass straight, whooped all three of them. And I think it was, yeah, three, it was three niggas. I fight the two niggas, whip them. About a third nigga, this is the older brother.

Like, I fight the brother, the middle brother. Yeah, I got to fight the old because they, I'm beating their ass. They got three fat sisters amp in the shit. By the third time, I'm like, I don't want to fight no more, bro. I'm tired. I don't want to fight no more, bro, for real for it. And I still end up fighting a nigga, but he, like, keep fighting him. And I'm like, bro, I'm tired.

And, like, I don't know. I just feel like, he ain't want to hear that shit. Like, he ain't want to just, like, me telling him, no, I'm not for him. I'm in hell now. That nigger, grab me, choke me up, all the type of shit. Like, don't ever tell me you ain't fin to fight in front of these niggas outside. You should have told me you was tired in the house or whatever the case. Niggas my sister.

Niggas don't come from that type of background. He had contested his story, Rob beat the... I whipped their ass, though, for sure. Dude, he did some shit to my sister. She never did, but she came to get me. He was way... I mean, way bigger to me.

Say I'm 12, he had to be 17 or somewhere. Man, this guy body slam me, trip me, suplex me. This dude... Nika shit, body slime me. Trip me, suflicts me. Trip for me and shit. Anything I try.

To this day, I'm trying. by it. My sister, rest of peace, Lisa. But I remember on the floor about the eighth time I got body slimmed. I looked there. I said, Mama, we used to call them my eyes. I said, I can't, mama. No what? I can. I went at the nigger's six-time. And then what bodies eating.

The niggins said I can't. Tripping me, suplexing me, clothes lining me, two-piece of me. Like, I got my ass what? I had to actually finally. Yeah. From the floor. Lord, I've never forget, it still traumatizes me. I look at my sister, I said, Mama, I can't.

Nah, she was like, all right, Joey, this and that. But the guy, for some reason, you know, the two or three times I got my ass whipping my hood, nobody outside, right? So it's like, you know, in my hood, if niggas outside, they'll beat you up 10,000 deep to one dude. Like, they're not letting fat joke get beat up in mind. To this day, and then letting fat joke get put up. Since a kid, boy,

the one, two, three times I got my ass, nobody was outside. We beat the shit out of me like, my shit. And I'm white. So my shit is like, you know how many guys I beat up and they got lucky and hitting my shit?

Is it eye jammy? That's some crazy shit I feel that, bro. I swear to God, like, I didn't really like, man, my mom's to tell you. Like, every time, Any time I get hit, you get a bruise, swelling up, red, pink, purple.

I didn't really whoop, niggas, and left the fight. I didn't whip niggas and left to fight purple, literally. What does Overtail? So with Overtent Elementary School, baby. Overtent, man, Overtent, Overtent, Overtent. That was a project that's still in play, man, for sure. But me and my partners, who I was in business with, J.B., we partnered in, like, just, it was a school.

that we, that was like, what's the word I'm looking for? Like, it's not demolition. You got shut down. Yeah, no what I'm saying? It got, like, closed down when, like, the, what the fuck was it? Was they, like, boycotting teachers and shit like that? Yeah, the, yeah, a bunch of schools, like, the teachers, like, boycott it. It was a thing.

So that was one of the schools, and we bought it and just, you know what I'm saying, made it, like, performing arts where it's, like, kids could go work out, pool, like, you know what I'm saying? All of that. Just putting it, putting something in the city, like in the inner city and on the south side of Chicago where kids can have a safe place to, like, work out still. Like, smoke, they're still in there working out right now.

They redoing the, yeah, mom's just, yeah, they redoing that. I'm just saying, like, it's still going on. Like, it's still going, like, I'm saying. Don't fuck yourself, man. Let me tell you something. Rich player, what was this? Dynasty, you gotta go fuck himself. Because what he says to me, he tells me all the time.

Hold on. He tells me all the time, I'm a narcissist. He says, yo, you're a narcissist. Narcissists don't want to help the community. They don't want to give back to the community and think about people. What you think about the people's losing the snaps? And we don't get too political here. What I mean?

But, like, they losing their food stamps. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, stamps here. You know, what do you think about that? Because me personally, I ain't got enough money to feed 40-something billion. This probably could connect with the swerving through. stress initiative. Yeah, no, definitely, for sure, for sure. Like, all that go hand-to-hand, like, even with what we did with Overtent, you

know what I'm saying? Like, swirl through stress. We didn't put kids through therapy. We didn't have food programs. Like, we did a peacewalk at Overtent at the school, like, all through the south side, like a real peace walk to stop the violence in, like, one of the toughest areas, you know what I'm saying? And, like, that's how swerving through stress really came about, just trying to provide

something for inner-city kids where it's, like, free therapy. suicide, hotlines, food drives, food giveaways, you know what I'm saying? There's me really trying to be like a staple in the community and get back because I know how hard this shit is, for real, and in the city and in poverty. And to say, like, what you're saying about, like, them shutting down the food steps were not even digging too deep in that shit. It's like, bro, a nigger haunt, and me and mix say this all the time. When a nigger hungry, when a nigga starving, when a nigger, you don't know, no tough,

no, no, I will do anything to you. with a nigga's stomach grabbing. For real, for real. So it's like, when a nigga hungry, you got to eat. Nigger might eat you. It's connected to crime, right? So first of all, if the only, it's connected to crime. If the only way you're going to eat is through some snaps or some food stamps

and now you ain't got shit and you got kids, what do you think is going to happen? Yeah, niggas going to rob, steal and kill. Purge, start robbing people, start robbing businesses, doing whatever they got to do. Not because they just trying to get rid. They're hungry It's because they're hungry I'm gonna give you one even people You ain't even thinking about like

The adults, niggas who brain fully working and fully functioning What about the kids? The 12 year old kid who moms can't eat I'm saying, moms can't provide Pops might be dead Pappas might be in jail His moms can't even provide

And he's trying to figure out How to go get some money And how to eat and get niggas stomach growl and he's starving He's the one that's gonna go out and rob And shoot through his brain Not even fully developed The only way

Middle kid's going to go out there and do some crazy shit. The only way to save the future, the only way it's ever been is you got to work on the youth because the youth, just like you said, you ain't cared. I ain't care. I went out every day for violence. Every day in my life, I went out for violence, right? And my mother was a nice person, hardworking. Your father was a hardworking.

My best friend, I don't want to say his name, his mother and father ran the child. church. And his shit was going off more than anybody. Right? So I don't know if you're just trying to fit in or whatever the case may be. But definitely, I'm not taking a risk. 2025 that I'm older that I would have did when I was 15, 16, 16, 17, 18, 19 years old. So the only way is to work with the youth before they get themselves in jail for life. Definitely, for sure. It's like you got to, that's the thing. Like, when I was coming up, I ain't had nobody like me that I wanted to be like and can see and tell me some real shit.

I made it. I come from this. I was doing this. Like, even I seen a clip where you're saying like a nigger come from a two-parent household and they'd be like, you're not in the streets because you got a mother and a father. Shit like that. You know what I'm saying? Like, I come from a two-parent household.

I was outside thugging for real. Tell me. Worse way. Like, no bullshit. Like, I was outside thugging in the worst way. And I seen this shit and like, yeah, not for real. No bullshit. No bullshit.

It's like, and how are you saying this shit? Like, bro, I was one of them niggas, bro. I put myself in the line of fire over and over again. Bro, I got shot. Couldn't walk right back outside on the block. I got shot on with a cast. Can't walk, can't run, can't nothing. But do nothing but stand 10 toes with that fire on me again.

I got shot and signed myself off the hospital the same night. And I was in that bema 525 blasts in that system is right in the wrong way to love somebody niggas was trying to say that show is dead I'm in that beamer like right in the wrong way like we was ignorant man everybody was ignorant but we got to pray for the future

and do as much as we can I love the way you holding yourself up positive because a lot of people, you know, they fall to that peer pressure of they got to be hood, they got to be with the board. Like, I don't... We're trying to get out of that shit. I really, personally, don't understand, right? Rich, rich, rich dudes.

Right? Let's just say the industry. You filthy rich and you're still in the gang. You're a billionaire in the gang throwing it up this. I'm trying to figure it out. Yeah, for sure. What is it? Is that the street,

right, you can't even. High line to the middle. You can't even. can't play the middle. Yeah. But what I'm saying to you, I mean, everybody in Chicago got to make a choice. Even if you're the nicest guy.

Definitely. You got to make a choice because that's the way that shit is. My thing is, why are you a millionaire, cabillionaire rappers? I don't want to call them out because I love all of them. Yeah, for sure. But I still don't understand why they throwing it up and saying they this. I don't get it. I think it's smart like you.

The Big Take podcast from Bloomberg News. dives deep into one big global business story every weekday. A shutdown means we don't get the data, but it also means for President Trump that there's no chance of bad news on the labor market.

What does a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, reveal about the economy? Our breakfast foods are consistent consumer staples, and so they sort of become outsize indicators of inflation. What's behind Elon Musk's trillion-dollar payout? There's a sort of concerted effort to message that, Musk is coming back. He's putting politics aside. He's left the White House. And what can the PCE tell you that the CPI can't?

CPI tries to measure out-of-pocket costs that consumers are paying for things, whereas the PCE index that the Fed targets is a little bit broader of a measure.

Shoot you 150 times. Then take your watch. I'm telling you.

I'd never seen nothing like this. In my life, we're going to FaceTime. Bro, it was like a block and a half, like two blocks from the niggas hit. They probably had like 600 guns outside. Never seen anything like that in my life. Let me explain to you. Choppers and sticks. They're killing you first.

They asked questions later. They're showing me the floor. The whole two blocks is. It was probably full of guns, bro. Like, literally, I swear to, I'm not even exaggerated, bro. The niggas probably had like five, six hundred guns. I'm dead serious. Like, stacked on top of each other.

Two blocks, they show me this shit. The video, FaceTime. I'm on FaceTime. We on FaceTime, like two minutes straight, just showing me guns. Yo, the reggae tone dudes, every last one of them, worship and love Puerto Rico, but they living in Miami, Orlando. Because that shit over there, I'm telling you, Puerto Rico, you think Fat Joe tough. You see Fat Joe walk around New York and the Rose Royce and all the line.

I'm a quiet boy in Puerto Rico. I go over there, I'm like, I'm like, I'm going to add the cheapest watch. One harrimbone. A fucking, not even that psycho watch, a, nigga like this. Sit going, guys, nigger told me the other day, too,

Feeve, where you at? Feeve was in Puerto Rico with one of the wildest little niggas little niggas little, he put him on the phone, the little niggas say, yo, we know you don't come to the hood in Puerto Rico, Joe, we love you, we worship. Come.

You are so safe here, Joe. I swear to God, these guys will die. They worship you. I was like, okay. Feeve, you were one of the toughest niggas in Puerto Rico run the whole shit. A free Chimmy? He got on the FaceTime with me except for that, Joe,

you don't understand how much we love you here. We worship you. We know you don't come to the projects in the hood out here. Guess what? I don't be seeing me there, no. I love you too. Buy yabori. quite. But you

I'm not, you got to get out of there. For sure. And how he was saying, like, even when it kind of like, bro, Sosa, that nigga was smart, bro. Like, that nigga, I ain't going to say, was. He is smart, bro. Shout out to Sosa. He used to hit me in a while since he got a couple more

him, man. So check in, man. Sosa Riches is a motherfucker, man. That nigga got an Instagram account for his cars. Oh, God. Like, that that nigga, that's real. We like to bro to go to this shit. He made decision and get the fuck on. You gotta get away from that shit, bro.

You gotta just get it me for me. You know why, everybody was a great thing. For sure. He did it first though. Hold on, let me say something. Everybody. You gotta be brave because they're gonna be doing this and that. He dealt with all out of there early. Yeah.

Fat Joe moved in Miami 20-something years ago. One night, I'm in Madison Square Guard. I'm headlined. And I'm in my green room. And I sit up on the fucking sink. And I look, and I'm like, holy shit, these are all killers. Like, everybody there with me was a fucking killer. The dude was going to say he sat on the sink and it broke.

No. That's three fat Joe's ago. But let me explain, son of you. I looked at them. And that was one of the main reasons why I got out of New York. I was actually too powerful. Yeah. And, you know, everybody trying to prove to the big man that this,

if I'd have sneezed at a dude, it got real ugly in there. Right, man. I realized, and I said, oh, I got to get out of here. It started in Miami and wear silk shirts, and they think I'm a nice guy. For sure, drinks. I never had a fight. I never had a one-on-one in Miami. I'm a nice law-abiding citizen.

I'm in Chipriani over there, over here. This is it. So I had to get up out of here, so I know the difference. You got to go. You got to get away because also a dude to force you to hurt him. That's crazy. I think there should be a law. Hold on.

Hold on, yo, gee, it's a law. There should be a law where, hey, if you killed the guy, you killed them. You got to do time, 10, 15 years. But if you knew this guy was killing the whole neighborhood, he was trying to extort me, shooting at my mother, this, this, this. And I killed him. I had no choice. Give me 15.

Give me 10. 15 years, 10 years, not life. Give me five. Yeah, five. He needed to get out of it. But the point is, this guy, you know how many guys must. might have went in front of that judge and said, Yo, honor, he forced me.

Like, it was like, this guy won't stop. Yeah, no, he's forcing me. Like, for sure. Bro, I've seen some dudes on some dudes. Yeah. They forced them. There's no way around it. There's no way around it.

He forced you. Everywhere you go, he got a problem. He took, he wanted, he this, he disliked. You know, we can't live. Somebody got to go. Yeah. Somebody got to go. Now, I think that should be almost like a body of passion or something.

A body of passion. They're having, it just don't work. No, no bullshit. They got those. They just... Body of passion. They got those, crack, but you just get... You can get that.
