You know, I was there the first time in New York City we ever seen the M&M.
They was holling him by the back of his T-shirt so he don't fly off the stage.
He was just spitting so crazy, a man punt.
We all looking at each other like, oh my God, who's this white boy?
That boy, crazy.
Yeah, yeah, what up, y'all.
This is Joe Crack to Dawn.
It's your boy, Jada.
You know what it is, the Joe and Jada show, man.
What's up, y'all?
Yo, Jada, you got that fly shit on.
That's what you got, bro.
You got to stop fucking playing.
You bought that baby pastel out.
You know what I'm saying?
That Valenciaga.
That mint.
That mint.
That mint.
Chalkly chipped mint.
Pepper mint.
Let me tell you something, boy.
He threw that shit on, you know?
Hip hop at his finest.
I've been in the game professionally, I would say, 33 years.
How many years have you been in the game?
20-something.
20-something.
And people don't understand.
I got an ill story with you.
You didn't even know about.
No.
I had an ill story.
I might have saved you and you ain't know it.
Right?
It was one time I never forget.
We had a show in Chicago.
And then Chicago has said,
anybody come from out of town, we robbing them.
You don't remember that shit?
At one time, they was, I could tell you who it was.
But you was dead.
When I walked in, Jay DeKitts was already there.
I walked in with extra jury.
I went out there.
You know, I got a hole.
Oh, I do remember.
We had a show.
We had a show one time in the shot.
Remember that.
And that shit was, I don't know if you knew that what was going on behind the scenes.
It really was nothing to do with us.
It just, it was so on it.
We landed on Plymouth Friott.
Yes.
Yes, we landed on Plymouth Frock.
They had to pimp with them.
the machine gun under the fucking...
He was like on the wheelchair.
His shit got real crazy out there.
And I remember I seen...
And the guys from Chicago,
salute, who was threatening everybody.
They was the first guys I saw when I walked in.
I had the stupid...
I wore an extra jury because they was like,
yo, anybody coming here, we robbing them?
Streets was like, yo, I went over there
with the dumb jury that day.
But, you know, I got the crazy...
You know, I got the crazy crew in Chicago, too.
They seen the seven-headed swordsmen's that never come out in the house.
They was like, aye, this guy came in.
But, you know, thinking of terrifying events, you know, really makes me think of one guy.
There's a historical figure in hip-hop.
And now that the man blind, he in jail, lost all his money.
People like use his names and raps and all that.
But when Shug Knight had $300 million, they were terrified of this man.
Shug was shaking shit up.
He was shaking shit.
Shaken or super shaken?
He was shaking shit.
The man goes, I don't know, right?
Because the theory is, I forget what movie it was.
I think it was Bronx there where he said, I'd rather be feared than love.
I used it in my shot you, right?
I'd rather be feared than love.
Do you truly rather be feared than love in real life?
Because this man was so feared that I don't know if I would feel good about myself.
You know, I went to an award show one time, and I ain't going to talk about the Vibe Awards.
That was the, that was the craziest shit.
I was there.
That's one of the first awards I ever got.
The Vibe Award.
You was there?
Yeah.
When Shugnight walked in.
by himself.
He scared the whole place with a cigar.
You want to talk about that?
Alicia Keys running back.
You know, she pulled me to the side.
Because I told this story before, she was like,
yo, bro.
I was like, you know, I worship you, Alicia.
But you did run past me with the red dress.
Like, you know, Russell's seven,
all he did was walk in.
Everybody ran out the whole shit.
There was no violence yet.
Everybody was running.
Swiss was like, yo,
She don't appreciate how you put in the store.
I said, no, she's my sister.
And I worship her, but she ran right past me with the red gown on.
Like Russell Simmons was tumbling over.
Like, it was like the Great White Shock was in the building.
They just let him out of jail.
He walked in his, he didn't have a gun.
His shit was a cigar.
He was like this.
The whole fucking awards.
And I wasn't even talking about that because I don't want to go into that one.
Right?
But matter of fact, I felt, right, because I'm only there.
with my wife
I think I'm there
with Armaged and Tony
I wasn't there with the goons
but it felt like
saving private Ryan
or something
like when you see
the guy in the middle
of a war zone
and somebody's standing there
and everybody's running
getting it
like I'm standing there
I see Norrie stood there
and it's just
everybody was running for no way
there's before the violence
this is like the minute
they saw him
I'm at a
I'm talking about a whole other time
I'm at a BET Award a summer.
Then we go to the after they got the restaurant that's open.
Got a thousand people in there.
The whole industry.
I'm not just talking about rappers.
Was in there talking.
It was loud.
It was this.
Next thing I know the whole restaurant is quiet.
And I turn around.
The whole restaurant emptied out.
It was us eating.
And Shug Knight sat down in the table right next to us.
Him just walking in the restaurant.
The whole restaurant ran out the restaurant.
Like, it was like they were so shook of this dude.
Everybody out there that, you know, I just, he was like, what up?
For some reason, he would call me all the time, big homie.
What up, big homie?
I'm like, yo, what's up?
Yo, this sat down.
We ate our food.
We left and people were just terrified of him on site.
I'll tell you this story that Koolandre told me.
Right?
So Koolandre super produces.
my brothers, Territ Squad,
they went to L.A. for a BMI Award.
And when they went to L.A. for the BMI Award,
there was a line going in.
So they stood on line thinking that's the line to go in.
So all of our favorite rappers and producers
and all that was on that line.
As they were going in close and closer,
they realized at the front of the line
was Shug Night.
and everybody was taking off their earrings politely,
their chains, their watches, just...
No way.
Okay.
Okay.
You know Koolandre, they're telling you,
and I'm talking about, yo, listen, Kiss,
famous friends of ours you would never believe was on that line.
Famous friends was voluntarily on that line running the Jews.
And so the line,
wasn't to the front door, it was aligned to Shug Knight.
Give me your jury.
So Kool and Dre looking, they're like, you know,
they'll tell you, they're not gangstice.
They were like, okay, we figured we'd get robbed.
They got the T.S. chains on at Rolex.
They go up to the front, Shugnay.
He's like, each of them producers guys with Joey.
And then he was like, yeah, you know, Kool and Dre.
They was like, yo, you tell a big homie, man,
this all love, this and that, just walk in, this, this.
So they almost felt like they almost wanted to get robbed
with everybody else
because everybody else
was looking at them
like the fix was in
like they was down
with the shit
yo
I'm telling
you had any run-ins
with Shug Night
did he try to like say
yo can I sign you
with some shit
because
Shug called Shik
mom's crib
when we was in like
when we was young
right before
right when the
bad boy deal
was on the table
or before you signed
the bad boy
he heard that you were signing
somebody somehow he heard
and we was in Sheik's crib
watching video music box
and Shug called his crib
and Luch must have been like
Hold on coming, yo
his fucking Shug on the phone
so he's like, what?
And he like, I remember
they said, yo, we want to sign.
They never even heard us.
They just must have, because Puff was about to sign us
so he's like, yo, y'all can get on a red eye
at night with how many people,
however many people you want to come over there with
I could fly out at night
we thought about it
but it was like we can't do that
it wouldn't have been
when it was all said and done
it wouldn't have been a good look
it wouldn't have
might have worked for the men
but it probably wouldn't have worked overall
for the, you know what I mean?
You got to represent over there.
You're absolutely right, you know.
But then after I got on
at the, you know, man,
in the game, popping.
Everywhere I would come, he would,
it's like, as soon as I get my bags from baggage
claim, they was calling him.
And everywhere I had to be, he was popping up.
You know what I'm saying?
He wasn't on no shit.
He was just, he was just everywhere I was at.
But it wasn't, he wasn't on, he wasn't,
he wasn't on no type of time.
Definitely was.
I think he already had a relationship with D and him,
so he knew, he knew how I was going to go down.
He did have a relationship with D.
Yeah, yeah, he was, he had a relationship with him.
Yeah, he did.
And he was cool with Irv, too.
He was cool with a couple of people.
Pistled Pee was hanging out in L.A. with him everywhere.
Yo, these guys, this is crazy, man.
These guys hang out together, right?
This shit is nuts.
But I think about when we talk about hip-hop, right?
And, you know, I come from the birthplace.
So when I try to explain to people, when we go into this,
yeah, but yo, yo, Jada, it's not my fault.
I'm born there, right?
So when you, you Muslim, you look at the Mecca
where they're walking around the shit.
It's not my fault.
I'm from that place.
Melly Meli Mel lived in my neighborhood.
Grandmaster Flash live in my neighborhood.
Shah Rock, first female MC in my neighborhood,
Little Rodney C.
Ruby D. the first Latino MC ever live in my neighborhood.
Lovebuck Starsky lived in my neighborhood
All these guys lived in my neighborhood
Mr. Ness.
So I'm from the birthplace.
So when I talk in my shit,
it's kind of hard to argue with me
because I'm actually there.
Like, as a little kid,
when they see me, they go Little Joey.
That's Angels brother, Little Joey.
Smack me on the head.
Yo, I keep it moving.
It's like, that's how I grew up in hip-hop.
But I think about, I remember the first time
I ever saw KRS 1
was in Cortland Projects
a shoutout Sadat X
and he had, he was this skinny
he had this Bob Marley
shirt on T-shirt with the
fucking roster hat.
He did the South Bronx.
I was mesmerized
this before we even heard it. By the second
time he did it, the whole
fucking jam was going South Braw
South Rock, South, we knew the song
the second time
he did it one time by the second
it was it was pandemonious right um i'm thinking of who do you see perform for like the very
first time that you seen them ever perform one time when i was little my moms came and
snatched me off the block that's how i always like to say my moms is responsible for my hip-hop career
one time late 80s i'm chilling on the block we're playing high water low water
when you got to jump over the rope and they keep raising.
So it's the whole block of summer day.
You know, a day, a summer day in New York is better than anywhere.
That's a fair.
The whole block is playing, is lit, it's beautiful.
My mom's come, get in the car.
Me.
Now, when they get in the car, we have a best time.
Boy, get in.
Now I'm tight.
And she's like, you're a couple of your men could come and ask their moms.
Get in.
She brought me to Mount Vernon, Memorial Field.
Open the car door, say,
yo, when you get, at this time, meet me back here at the car.
I get in, I get in the field.
It's the fucking fat boys.
Steggumato.
Shit was crazy, though.
I'm like, yeah, how the hell did she?
Then it was fat boys.
It was rapping Duke.
Then run DMC.
The hot or hot.
That shit was crazy, dog.
Run DMC.
And boys rapping duke in the park.
The best that shit was, I'm like, how the fuck?
It was no grammar, none.
It was no, it was barely newspapers, ma'am.
I'm like, who gave my mom the call that this shit was,
and that shit would probably change my life right there.
You know, me and my brother, you know, my uncle Angel,
you know, he's a pastor now and all that.
But he had promised us he was going to take us to that concert
in Madison Square Garden that run DMC.
The one they say everybody put up the Adidas in the air.
Fresh Fest.
We waited for him in front of the building.
Like, yo, let me tell you stuff.
When you see these movies of kids waiting for their father to come and their father never come,
when I tell you, me and my brother was looking at every fucking headlight coming up the block hoping my uncle came.
He never came?
Nah, he never came.
And you know what?
My uncle angel, he wasn't even like hip-hop like that.
So I believe them.
We sat in front of the projects, waiting for hours.
And then all you can hear is the legendary stories of our motherfucking lift up only Adidas and all that.
But maybe we was too young.
That shit also got, you know, people always like to say, yo, hip hop started peaceful.
But every block party I went to, somebody pulled out a shotgun and robbed the whole park.
Or started a stampede.
Or starting a stampede.
Right.
So even at First Fest, no matter everything that happened, they said, Brooklyn's in the house.
Like, you know, like, they were like, you know, it was going down in that motherfucker.
They was throwing dudes over the whole shit.
So when it comes to first, you know, I was there the first time in New York City, we ever seen Eminem.
And so he opened up for me and pun at the lyricist lounge, the outsiders, group out of New Jersey.
they brought him out
and this man
was, you knew he was special
and all of me, dudes got
Drenlocks and all that
and he was so skinny
they was holding him by the back of his
t-shirt so he don't fly off the stage
he was just spitting so crazy
and me and Pum we all looking at each other
like, oh my God, who's this white boy?
This boy, that boy crazy.
You know, I was at this thing
called Zodiac 2
I used to go to over there
to sit at High Bridge now.
And so we used to go to that club all the time.
And I was there the first time I saw Biz Marquis bring up Big Daddy King.
Big Daddy King had the roster,
had Kango to the side, right?
And this is when hip-hop was hip-hop to where you could have been tough
if you wanted to be tough,
but it was really about loving the hip-hop moment.
So, you know, guys had the Ben-A-Tong bags and all that.
shit and when that man said big daddy came went up there it's like he was like supercalifragilus
the guest for you i look gosius i literally seen dudes trying to run up the wall like defy gravity
this one used to be like oh oh and you whiling and shit like that man you know i was there
when big daddy cane brought out j z for the first time it was in manhattan big daddy came brought
them out. And Jay-Z
started spitting. And you knew
he was special because at the time,
Jay-Z wore the, I mean,
the Big Daddy King wore the crown.
For him to bring a young boy
out there in Manhattan to get that
boy to spit.
You know,
so you, you know, there was things
like that that was legendary
to me, of who I said, of course
I seen Finesse bring out big hell
for the first time.
You know, Finesse had, like,
your fans.
Okay, so Finesse had fans
that would just go, they didn't even
want to hear the beat. They didn't hear
they just wanted to go, oh!
I want to hear the lyrics.
Oh!
And the fans almost
lined themselves up.
They'd be in the crowd
lining themselves up just to chair.
They'd be like, Lord Finesse is
the man that you got to hear.
So they just
keep going.
That was his fan, and so when Big Hell came out there and started spitting with Fennesse, I was out there in the first show.
It was uptown.
It was like, that's considered Dominican land now for Marble Hill and all that.
That was the first time Finesse brought him out.

Hamilton pauses, and then he says, the greatest man that ever lived was Julius Caesar.
And Jefferson writes in his diary, this proves that Hamilton is for a dictator based on corruption.

I had the Lexus 400, the big boy.
I opened that door like concierge.
The man came up in there and sat down.
The whole shit went down.
and his crew, they look so sad
because it was a group.
They looked so sad
because he was the only one I put in the car.
But I pointed at them and I said,
your pun,
don't worry we're going to put them on.
You got to worry about you right now.
I'm going to bust you out.
You're going to blow up
and then you put your man's on.
You know what I'm saying?
He was like, I, word, word, word.
And then we just cruised.
He told me his whole life story.
That's all, you know what's crazy is.
puns on me his life story, right?
So I come from selling drugs,
dealing with the wildest animals you ever dealt with.
It did complete treason of, uh, treason, fucking, what, betrayal, robbers,
just people you just can't trust.
So I couldn't believe that he was telling me his real life story
the first second I ever met him, he got in the car.
One deal he made with me.
said, yo, man. He said, so Trump was like this real, live, real nigger, but that never really
had a crew, a Pistalleros. He didn't have a crew. I had an army since I was in kindergarten,
bro. I'm telling you. I got a story. He rests in peace. Fuente, Julio Fonte, my barber for many
years. He said, I was five years old. I walked to his barbershop with 20 kids. And he said,
he was like, yo, I can't cut your head with these 20 kids.
And he said that I told them all to go outside and wait for me.
And they all went outside.
And that's when my barber, Julio Fentes, told me, I knew you were the leader.
I knew you were going to run this shit.
You was five years old telling 20 guys wait outside, right?
So, pun, the point I'm making is, pun says, is those terrorist squad?
Is that going to be my crew?

They're going to do whatever you say.
Oh, I'm in.

He's like, he always wanted that army with him, right?
And sure enough, to this day, they lure you to them.
So when we drive out to your ill stories,
He said, pun tells me a story.
He was homeless.
Nobody.
He wanted to show his family, his bloodline, his DNA, that he wasn't going to be a piece of shit.
They always told me he was going to be a piece of shit.
He's telling me this the first minute I met him.
I never seen vulnerability like that.
But then he tells me this one story.
He says, man, I want to impress my uncle.
So I'm saying, your uncle?
He was like, yeah, man.
He said, I got an uncle.
He's really rich.
He said, and one day I went to him.
him and told him I was hungry and he went in my hand and he gave me a bunch of rocks rocks
like rocks and told him eat that so pun is like yo my uncle's rich I told him I was hungry
he put rocks in my hand and told me to eat that so long story short successful first Latino
double platinum filthy rich now let me explain big pun to you big
Big Punn had 10 Benz's and Beemers in front of it.
He wouldn't leave out the hood.
I was begging him.
I was already in church.
I'm already hearing birds chirping little kids playing hockey in front of the shit.
I'm gone.
Like, he's still in the soft bronx.
He's still, not the soft brown.
He's sound view.
Everybody know 10 benches.
He had a limousine on 24-hour hold.
365 days.
He had a guy, a limousine with a driver, just sitting in front of the crib.
24 hours a day, right?
Little dogs, if he had a fur,
kids had furs, they even got the furs
for the dogs. And the dogs was from like Europe
or some, he was the true pedestrian
of blowing a bag, big pun.
He couldn't hold on the money. He was just
going crazy. You know, he went. He probably
was the first rapper with three Rolex watches on. Like, this guy was
out of control with it, right? So,

He shut the fuck up the rest of the funeral.
Right?
As he shouldn't.
No, no.
shut the fuck up the rest of the funeral, and, you know, it is what it is.
I'm, you know, but anyway, that funeral, I'm sure you guys came through, Puff came through,
Little Kim, Mac10 flew in, TLC, you know, it was so crazy because, you know how you get the
flowers in the funeral, I'm reading the flowers.
So the flowers is like sent by Eminem.
Eminem might have sent seven flowers
for the Big Pond funeral.
Whitney Houston
send like seven flowers.
Like these people we never met.
This is like you got to go to the Grammy
to meet all these people
and all the stars from all over
were sending flowers
and I'm reading it and I couldn't believe it.
Like TLC,
T-Bars walked up in there.
Everybody, they had so much respect for him.
I remember the Biggie funeral
you know what I'm saying?
I went to Brooklyn in front of his old crib
and I just was out there in the streets
where you see the video
of the streets of everybody wilded
because I pulled up in front of the funeral
and I just felt like
I didn't want to see big like that
but I was across the street
from the Frankie Campbell.
You went to the big funeral?
Yeah, I went to.
You had to be sad, huh?
Hell yeah.
I mean, I was
that shit was traumatizing for it.
for us. You know, that was our first time in L.A. when that shit happened with him.
So that wasn't. And we made, we always love Big Papa.
They played that. They actually played in the funeral.
They played it for the mafia and his family. And that's we only made it for that.
We never made it to be released. We only made it to play for them.
I mean, then all end up releasing it with missing you and all.
Yeah, that shit was it.
Hip-hop.
What made you get in the game?
What let you know this is the reason you picking up a mic
or you writing, you know, on your paper?
For me, when I was little, I was always breakdancing, doing shit.
I was known on the block as the little.
I just was intrigued by hip-hop.
In my uncle's room, like I said, listening to the Ferriest Five.
and they've still have park jams in y-o i was sneaking and all of them joints one time i went all
the way across town to black heritage day when i was little my mom's going to whip my ass but
she saw that i love hip-hop so much i ain't i ain't get in trouble but i should have got
how far i went and how young i was i could have been dead right now hip-hop saved my life for real
you could say.
She was going to kill me.
I was just sitting on the fucking hill
looking at the naked's performing.
And what I say is that that's similar to me.
I remember the first time
I heard Eric Bien
Rockin with the don't
a don't know
and we went to the
what's called now
where A. Bougney and them is from.
Right?
But at that time, it was on University Avenue.
we had to take like two, three trains
from the five and two to the four.
And then you get off at Burnside
and you got to walk up that big ass hill.
Burnside.
There's one thing you drive that hill.
You walk that motherfucker?
Oh my God.
Like, it felt like the warriors when you, like.
And so we on the other side,
it's almost like being in California, you know, from where I'm from.
At that time,
no car, we're taking trains for hours.
And that's where we saw the Wop for the first time.
And they was playing that shit, boom, but on them.
And back in the days, you know, and we studying them
and we're trying to do the dance.
We took that bitch back home.
That next day we went to the Park Jam.
They threw on that Eric B and Rock Kim,
and we started doing the Watt.
Everybody started studying the Watt.
I mean, you know, back in that day,
it was more word of me.
mouth.
Yeah, so only way it can is word of mouth or the phone with the spin back.
That made me think of an ill story, right?
And so part of being a great storyteller is you tell your wins and you tell your losses.
You know what I'm saying?
You've got to be able to, you know, you got to have the people tune in where they feel like they're there, right?
So, I come from a project called Guardsville.
Right.
So also, it was like the Mecca of the 5%ists.
So everyone, I was the guard, Crack Kim, great God Allah.
Yo, yo, yo, yo, I'm telling you what it is, right?
Crack Kim is crazy.
You got to, you got to think, you got to think, you got to think.
What is this?
Listen.
Yo, you got to think, there's no other way to do it.
You got to think, y'all, everybody go check out this movie back in the day is called Fresh.
You got to think Chuck.
Remember, Fresh, what's the funky dope move?
But think Chuckie from Fresh.
You live in Dawson Ferry right now.
We found it.
Yeah, because I ain't, my man, my man that's in Fresh, he used to work out with us.
He moved to Cali now, but when we got.
I got to meet him.
I got to meet him.
I got to meet him.
We didn't meet him. We just found him.
He said, Dawes Ferry.
Also, you ain't Chuckie.
If he watched this show, come on.
I got to meet Chuckie.
So Fadjo is Chuckie for friends.
There's no way around.
In real life, that's what he was.
The fucking, yo, punishes.
We bust the stupid.
That was just Joe.
Always the guy starting to trouble, always getting in trouble.
Always trying to do too much.
Always trying to, you know, while out just every fucking time.
Right?
And so I grew up, my projects, 90% black, 10% Puerto Rican.
It is what it is.
So the gods being there, and I'm Chuckie for fresh.
Like, yo, get the fuck up out of you.
They're building, trying to do the site for I'm saying ham, salemmy, and bacon.
Or I'm fucking with everybody, right?
So you got the guards from Section 5 Corp City, Patterson projects.
All the guards know, they come to my projects, is the Mecca, Garsville.
And he was the little,
I was the annoying fat Puerto Rican nigga
that were fucked with everybody.
He said, yo, you ain't God body,
but you know you're being witness, God.
The God, yeah, I'm the God crack camp.
Great God Allah, y'all knows, right?
So if you want the picture,
this is what it is, right?
So now they have some shit in Manhattan.
Right?
They had some shit in Manhattan.
I'm going to tell y'all true story.
Don't get mad at me, Bronx.
they had this shit called March of Dine.
I remember the March Dine.
Lori shouldn't even listen to this story
because this was like, you know,
March of Dime was raising money and this.
Yeah, the thing with the change in the, remember?
But at the end, just before you go to the ferry to Staten Island,
whatever that is, battery, whatever that shit is down there.
So one day we said, because Brooklyn used to be there deep,
so one day we told the whole entire,
Bronx, the whole
entire Bronx
that we're going down there.
That I ain't going to
line. You say they was 20, 30,
40,000 black
dudes. They had one fat
Spanish nigger. I was,
you might as well say I was
surfing on the, on the trick.
You ain't able to stop.
The B-A-X, nigga,
the cell, bro. I'm like,
Chuckie from Fresh.
I'm like on
10,000, right? So we
get out,
every train,
it was like the Warriors,
was just thousands,
hundreds of guys
from the Bronx,
from Co-op City,
the Valley,
all the way down
to Patterson,
I mean,
everybody got the memo.
We're going down there,
right?
So we get out
the train and Battery Park.
South Bronx,
South, South Brown,
South Bronx.
I mean,
thousands of us, right?
South Bronx, right?
Next thing you know, as we're getting closer to the park,
I start hearing like, South Bronx, South, South Bronx,
South Bronx, South Bronx, South, South.
And I'm still like, yeah, South, wrong, South.
And, man, we get to this park.
And what I don't think we relied on
is people having cousins in Brooklyn, right?
So they must have told Brooklyn
the Bronx was coming out there.
Geographically, Brooklyn is like seven times bigger than the Bronx.
If we had 20,000, they had 100,000.
Brooklyn in the house.
Brooklyn.
And then I ain't going to lie.
The base in the Bronx voice really told, man, we got it popping instantly.
It was just the Bronx against Brooklyn.
We're fighting all over.
I see all these guys who I thought was the toughest guys getting hit.
They would hit you with the fucking Frank for the man.
The Frank for the truck.
They pounding you out.
They threw the whole guy.
They throw the whole fucking truck on you.
Like, this shit was bad out there.
Like, yo, we was taking a beat.
I just see a niggins.
Everybody's getting, we fight.
Of course we got, you know, Brown's got the realists.
You know, we out there fighting thousands people.
I'll tell you one thing.
I'm sure there was some other Puerto Ricans
but man it was scarce
I mean they did Brooklyn definitely
sort of fat Puerto Rican dude going all out
fighting everybody
but it was just
we had to get the fuck up out of there
bad though
I mean you see every guard
this one that one this
everybody was
shoo-shoom shooting past
motherfuckers it was just they was just
way too deep
and we went over there
super deep
but it was this I guess that's like
the great adventures of like being a kid
without a car, rolling
with your projects somewhere
catching the air. Where do
you go to with your projects that it got a little
bit too? I never
lived in the projects, but my
neighborhood
was just as fucking
fucked up as the project.
But like Halloween nights,
they used to have
shits with every one whole side
of town and just
mad projects and
Mad blocks, just get together and go somewhere and do some crazy shit.
You know, I did that.
I used that one time, right?
I was a young kid hustling, selling drugs.
I know that that's not popular to say, no, I'm not co-signing, but.
Better than using them.
I remember, that's a fact.
I remember, right, it was one Halloween.
And they had these dudes, I had this little crack spot that was clicking.
And these dudes were fucking grown men.
right they you know I'm only 14 13 14 um and I got a spot and it's clicking so these guys
were grown men and they came through and they just set up shop in the park and they was like
yo shorthy man you dead like I'm telling you the truth yo you dead on this shit like
like come on man this and I'm only like 13 14 but my projects used to get together for
It was hundreds of us.
And we go to everybody else's projects with socks, with this.
So it happened to be Halloween, right?
And they was super deep.
And I told everybody, yo, I'm going to give you the signal.
Y'all come around the corner.
Dude.
Y!
Yo!
I'm 13.
I walk up to these dudes, they grow men.
I'm like, yo, y'all can't plump out here.
They're like, what?
Like, yo, didn't we tell you with this?
I was like, hey, yo!
They just came around the corner.
The whole project looked like Halloween.
They did with socks with this.
This thing was like, yo, they were true.
I said, yes.
This is my crew.
Like, what y'all ninkis won out here?
Man, them boys left that spot so fast, man.
I think the project ain't know I used them to run these guys out of it.
These guys were grown men, 30 years old shit.
When I say, yo, hundreds of guys came with the face painted, the socks.
They were like, no, no, no, no, no, no, we out.
Don't worry about it.
We won't come back over here no more.
This, this day.
I use Halloween a couple of times.
Nah, you know, this shit is all theater.
Theater.
One time I blocked, we was hustling because we used to hustle together.
So I lived in the middle of the block.
I came out like in the evening.
in one time, like, no.
I'm, I'm catching, like, the sundown shift.
So I'll come out, I probably had a hundred,
a couple hundred pieces on me.
Come out, dab everybody up, go put my pack in the building.
Like, too, look, come out, what's up, crack?
Put my, my man, and this is the crazy,
he's Mary's cousin.
He's the one who actually passed the demo.
It's Jay Bop.
My man, Jamalco, he actually passed the demo to Mary that went to Puff that got a sign.
So fast forward, I come out the crib, shower, ready to knock my work off, put it in the middle building up in the elevator thing.
Come out two seconds.
Somebody, oh, somebody come, they want some.
Custy.
I go back.
It's gone.
Now, I'm like, my man, I said, Bob, you.
It's no way
It was
When I tell you
Was this fat
I came out that
Put the pack in the building
Went outside them
Yo let me get some
Went back

We got down
The like
No's the no
He's like
I don't got you shit

No ways

No four hands
So we all
It got like heated
They calmed it down
But I still, I can't sleep because I'm like,
I went to the house and got some more, but I'm like, this.
My whole night was fucked up off.
Oh, yeah.
So we're chilling a few hours later.
Always come, a smoker come out.
Did you have them green bags?
They're having a party in Deb's house with.
Oh, you was like, who's pumping the green bag?
So now we got to the bottom of it.
My man, nut, I hope he rest.
He's a lot of peanut?
Hobie's alive, we have killed.
The peanut stole the shit.
We have killed them.
He used the baffoom on yourself.
We obliterated him when we caught.
Let me tell you something.
American history is full of wise people.
What women said something like, you know, 99.99% of war is diarrhea and 1% is gory.
Those founding fathers were gossipy AF, and they love to cut each other down.
I'm Bob Crawford, host of American History Hotline, the show where you send us your questions about American history, and I find the answers, including the nuggets of wisdom our history has to offer.
Hamilton pauses, and then he says, the greatest man that ever lived was Julius Caesar.
And Jefferson writes in his diary, this proves that Hamilton is for a dictator-based,
on corruption. My favorite line was what Neil Armstrong said. It would have been harder to fake it
than to do it. Listen to American History Hotline on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever

but his name was Monkey Face Carlos.
Monkey Face Carlos.
He from the Bronx?

You're from the BX?
Yes.
He was an alleged killer because I don't know where he's at.
But he was there with Chicky for Southern Boulevard and all these,

Don't let nobody lie to you.
These guys, they're underneath the jail.
They told him, the judge told him,
These don't guys, yo, I want to snitch on another body for who.
Chicky, please, we're not doing no more tricky stories.
Like, we don't want no more about it.
Like, they're underneath the jail, right?
The realest guys ever in the Bronx.

No, he was actually a fairly handsome guy, but that was just what they called him.
That was handled.
And he was way advanced for me.
I'm only 14.
He's like, they're putting their work legend out there, right?
But he goes with the girl in my building.
So I've been calling him and he don't pick up the phone, right?

Then he tried to act.

We did this already, didn't we?
No, we did duos.
We didn't do groups.
Complex did duos.
What have we done?
Ladies.
Ladies, producers, songs.
We ain't do the biggest, the best groups of all time.
But there's probably a lot of crossover.
There's some groups that's duos.
And there there's some groups that's groups.
I don't think you count them by the...
They're running out of shit to make up
so they broke down two men groups.
Then next day they come with three men groups.
Then they come with...
How about them guys we did the show with...
What's the what?
The 520 boys, they brought out the LeBron joint.
Like, there's some...
There's some shits that everybody keep playing into

Scheme ass way
Damn and they
Do you know
A little bird
A little birdie told me that verse that big is talking about Craig Mac on his own song.
I heard about that.
Nah, I heard about it.
And if I was the curse.
With that first of all, you're bound to get dropped.
Would you get, you bound to get dropped.
Damn.
I mean, the same thing happened with cannabis in L.L.
When he put him on that other joint.
Yeah, that was a great song.
But I don't think it makes the type.
I don't think it makes the first five like when he said the first five scenario.
And then, you know, that was a good one, but that wasn't, that wasn't our shot.
It wasn't, um, but that cannabis L.O. battle, who you thought was winning that at the prime of that battle right there?
I didn't like, that was the start of our demise of with this comparison shit.
Because it's a young, a young aspiring rapper to be, have a career going that battle with the first person I ever signed.
the death jam. It's not right. We should have never let that happen. That was a flag.
But we like negative and we like controversy so much. He went to the army, right? He went,
he went military? Yeah. Cannabis went to the military after that?
military, man. He's done. He's super nice.
If there was anybody, the Big Pum wanted to smoke with, it was cannabis.
Why, anybody wanted to smoke with cannabis?
No, because, you know, Pund respected him.
Blinky Blink went, left Harlem, went to his out-release party, and Julioed him.
On cannabis?
Yeah.
What for? He was an L.O. fan.
He said his name. He said he's something about him in the rhyme.
You went to his album party
Went to his album,
police party.
I never liked the KRS through P.M. Dorn off the stage.
I used to love P.M. Do it, bro.
I didn't like that.
There were certain shits that we didn't like.
They wasn't supposed to say nothing about Chris, though, man,
to teach it, man.
Did he say something about Chris P.M. Dawn?
He had to.
He went on stages to power would throw his ass off.
He had to do some serious violation for him to do that.
Damn.
God.
Without you.
I used to love that shit.
Right?
P. M. Dorn had knocked, though.
B. Dorn was this shit, bro.
Yo, I fucked with P. M. Dorn.
He passed away, too.
He passed away, rest of peace.
P. M. Dorn.
I remember Finesse had the beef with my man's
the funky man over there in Jersey.
I live for the funk.
I died for the...
Mr. Funky.
Him and Finesse had a rap battle.
Yeah, they're super cool.
no they're mad cool um sometimes
i was just for 50 cent we got all that
had all that history with him you know you respect people when you go to war
with them and you see like you like damn and then you know 50 cent just
told me this shit too many you say you know the beef was never with you
he said you just too loyal he said you too lawy and you just took
they side because you made music with him but he i swear to god he just
told me this one day ago he was like yo the
I never really had real beef with you.
It was just, you know, you jump.
And then somebody told me, think about it now,
somebody told me, like,
I try to get two wrappers to squash your beef,
big-time rabbits.
I had one ready to squash it,
and this ain't 50-cent job.
I had one ready to squash it.
I went to see the other in this house,
and you know what he told me?
Yo, Joe, why would I squash this?
because every time I just say their name or disem, I go viral.
There's no way I'm going to squash that.
You believe that people keep problems
because they know if they say your name,
they're going viral automatically.
And so the guy told me, why would I squash the beef?
Every time I want to go viral, I just say, fuck these guys.
Yo, the game is fucked up.
That's crazy.
The chemistry of the game.
The game is crazy.
But, I mean, think about it, right?
You know what I'm saying?
We started with Jimmy, and then now he's on a world tour about, you know what I'm saying?
I don't think Nas even responded, right?
He responded with a casino.
He responded with a casino.
That was bad, yo.
He responded with a casino.
With a casino.
Do you know what 1% of a casino is?
25?
I'm sure he got more than that.
I'm just saying, yeah, he responded
with a casino.
We're going to wrap up with that.
Yeah, let me tell you some.
He responding to the casino.
What can we say after that?
We at Rock Nation.
Every time I thought I had some for Jay-Z,
he'd be like out in Monaco,
where the grapes or $5,000 to eat
to this.
And I'd be like, yo, this guy,
he's just, the word that I step on is
a million dollars.
I'm like, yo, we,
You can't say shit about this guy.
That was Wansbill.
They didn't get the most ever spent on indictment.
Indictment.
That was Warns' space.
That was Wansbill.
I mean, I think Nass took a page out of his hose book with this one when he just said, okay, perfect time and you promoted the casino.
Here you go.
And on that note, we're the biggest in the motherfucking game.
Joe crack.
Hold on.
What is it?
