just another name in the credits. We're talking about the architect behind the anthems that raised the whole generation. You hear me? You think nine Grammys. You know how fucking hard it is to get nine grandmas? I ain't got one, man. At this point, I'm begging. Nine grandmas.

I ain't got one. We're talking about diamond plaques. Hook so strong they turn R&B pop and hip-hop into one conversation. Mm-hmm. Huh? You think umbrella. Huh. Single ladies.

Huh. All of the lights. Huh? A pen so sharp. It bent the culture in real time. When you think of today's guests. Shit, he's talking about you. You think of the quiet mastermind who turned love, heartbreak, and temptation into scriptures for the clubs, the cars.

In the late nights, you think a two-decade run still hitting new gears coming back with love, hate part two. Just to remind everybody what real songwriting feels like. When you think of today's guess, you think legend, you think visionary. You think one of one. That's right. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Dream to Joe and Jaylor. Hey, my brother. Crazy right now.

You, Amy. Y'all, Jim, you got that Botega scoff, that leather shit on right now. You got a little bit. I had to hit it a little bit. You came up in here looking like the dream. Looking like the dream right now. Mawfucking looking like dream. You know I had to get right.

I know y'all was up here. You know what I had to get right? happens to me, dream, man, is, and then we're going to go. I know I'm, I'm, but what happens to me is I want people who are fans of Fat Joe wherever they see

I want to float by. I want them to say, damn, that Fat Joe, they look in the restaurant, he flies, smelling good, they look, that's fucking Fat Joe. They want to see me pulling off with some drop-top shit, some shit. Y'all, Fat Joe, sometimes you're a fan of somebody

and when you see them in person, they don't look like what they advertise. The dream looked like the fucking dream. Right now. He looked like the fucking dream. Yo, dream. Man, I appreciate it, man. You're giving me that experience.

Man, I appreciate it, bro. I'll take that. All right, thanks, brother. You got your flags, you know. What's a flag. Why do you want to throw the... Just in case. Oh, I got all...

Oh, I got to get them from pit. That's right. I do got my flags over here. I got to get them from pit. They got the first one kind of match. matching you over here. Your dream, let me ask you a question, right? Yes, sir.

I'm just skipping all the way and say, when you do a show or tour, do you ever do a segment about the songs you wrote for other people? Man, it's so crazy that you say that. Because that was the, that's the idea going into this next phase of my whole shit is breaking it down.

Like how, and even on stage, like, I don't think, um, these songs that I've been doing, man, I do them so fast that I just became accustomed to not good. I was just talking about that with the camera. It's kind of the same thing. I'm like, I didn't get pictures the first time around. I wasn't taking pictures.

Meva. I was just grinding, go in the studio. Like, all right, see y'all later. Versus, amenis. I think Lenny asked, the reason why he came up is we were working in a Mercer on no church. Yeah. Yeah.

And so he has this picture of the Yays made by. minds and jays, like all three, like, on the street. And I had to ask him for the pigeon. I could have to ask the picture myself. But I have to ask Lenny. Lenny got like $2 billion worth of pictures over there, by the way. I got no pictures with Biggie Smalls. Oh, no.

That was my man. See, that's what I mean. I got a blurry one somebody cheated and shot off a balcony, and we're like fucking grainy. I don't have no clear picture with Biggie. I got one with me, him, puff, Kim,

and, uh, bone thugs. I got, like three. I got like three pictures. And you was with him every day. You're on fucking smashes,

the Benjamin's, all that shit with. Yeah, at one time, it wasn't about pitches. I'm only got like three or four pitches with big. I don't got a lot.

That's crazy. That's nuts, right? Yeah, we wasn't taking pitches. We wasn't taking pictures. And it was the other one. Oh, yeah.

Right. That's right. Mawfucker ran out you and said, yo, let me take a picture. They had a whole fucking orchestra with them. They looked like Andre 3,000 at the Met Gallo. They can pull out the bazooka camera. Yo, it was so rare for someone to have an actual camera back in the days.

Because it wasn't on the phone. It was like you had to have a camera. Exposable. Exposable joints. Most people had them, yeah. Joint you going to graduation, your mom's thing. Get them a little Kodak joint and drop them off at the pharmacy. Your dream, you're special.

You're very unique and extremely. You're a genius. You're talented. Thank you, man. I love when you collaborate with pushing. Not just clips, not just when you aren't pushing. Yo, let me tell you, that's one of them I'd be looking for. Right?

Any, I don't care if it's a smash. It's not a smash. For some reason, he bring out that. You'll be on that shit when you on there with push it. Like, you don't turn. I love you. Because I was killing a niggas on that push. So I feel, you know, it's like one of those things where you're like,

yo, that energy, because I'm from the block, like, regardless of what it looks. Like, I'm from that space. But I do a different thing. But whenever that energy is around, I'm like, ooh. You get right in that change. What? I'm like, yo. I've been waiting.

Like, let's go. Let me get one of those. Yeah, I like, even if we're just talking on texting, just lyrically going back and forth, I like the sparring even in that case. When did you realize your voice? Your voice is, everybody's voice is an instrument, but your voice is a different,

your shit is incredible. And you, the way you were able to go, you know, different ranges and hit different notes and take it, when did you really know? I got one of these fucking most incredible. credible voices of all time. The craziest thing. I used it more as a utility.

I never really thought that much of my voice in that way because I felt like everybody just had a unique thing that they did. I didn't even understand something that you just said, was the range of a thing to go into a falsetto that type of way out of a tenor and how I was doing it. A lot of that came with band. I started playing trumpet in the third grade. So because band happened,

I was just talking about, like, festival music and stuff, not too long ago. You're going into, like, festival music is this thing that happens, like, around Thanksgiving and Christmas. Like, so the band, if you're young and you're able to actually go through this thing that I went through, which was great. You have clarinets, flutes, you have all these sections coming together to do a particular thing. So in my mind, when I was young, I could hear even now. I can't even hear a note without hearing the other parts. happening. So my voice transitioned just into

that. What do you mean by that? What do you mean? Because I really want to understand that. You can't hear an instrument without hearing the other instrument. What do you mean? Nothing could be like singled out to you like you hear it all. I hear it all. Even if that vocal, if the lead vocal stays with the lead, I still hear all of the harmony notes that go with it.

I know exactly when they should happen. I can feel a buildup in the momentum. And in band it's written on your sheet music that you were reading in festival time. I was to read music and to say, oh, crescendo is coming.

Like, everybody knew there was a swell coming. Like, all of that stuff I put into everything that I'm doing here on this side. But it's just, you know, in the beginning, I never talked about

as much as I just started kind of open up and talk about, like, how that impacted me a lot as a kid. And now I'm trying to make sure that the kids got that again because they just took

this shit out of school. You know, like when I got, I think in high school, they were just like, nah, we ended the programs. I'm like, you're keeping everybody from selling dope. Like, we need to keep doing this. So they pulled it out of school and kind of, yeah, I'm still a little heartbroken about that. 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.

Oh, Jake. 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. Smooth, clean, elevate. No burn, no rough edges, just a premium paw that speaks for itself. You know when it's something that's just built right?

That's what this is. Real talk, that's just what it is. Always around for the best nights, the wins, the celebrations, to remember that night's story. 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 move. True, true, true. One. Some of the artists you looked up to growing up, and then two, What's your class of the ATL?

When you came out, who else was popping at that same time? Who else you was looking at like, all right, I got to step my shit up or I'm happy for them. I've seen them at all the talent shows. Who are some artists you looked up to previously before your time? And when you came out, came out around the same time that? It would be Sam Cook, oldest reading, of course. And, man, old is just another machine. Of course, we all, Michael.

Prince, I got later. Like, I feel like Michael was the person that you got when you're young. You're trying to do all the dances and shit. Prince was saying shit that you probably didn't know what. You're like, I don't know, what he's saying? You've got to be like 16 for you. That's what he meant.

That's what you meant by Nikki. Now I know exactly. And so to grow into those four guys, like at that cornerstone man for me, that's why I'm. honed, I always tried to, the best way to even put songwriting was trying to write the 10th record

on Thrillet. Hmm. Every time I write, trying to make whatever the 10th record would be, can I make that album? And so that's how I just went into my whole career on this side. And when I was coming up, me and Tip went,

me and Tip went to the same elementary school. Like, we were from the same block. That's right. So I've been doing this thing since I was, we're right. That's what I'm saying, you know. when he was deflating the basketball and the park. That's what he said. Center Hill.

He said they wouldn't let him so he started stabbing the basketball. Yeah, that was it. Yeah, there you go. That was stupid. And so watching his rise and being happy, he's like, yo, from my block,

this is crazy. And just Atlanta in general, y'all understand. Like, for us, for you guys, y'all had the business of it already put together how it worked here.

We just, knew how to get jerk for our money before y'all. Yeah. It looked like that. I'm just getting robbed before y'all. Yeah. We did sacrifice. We were the lambs.

We were the sacrificial lambs up here getting raped and pillaged by these niggas over here. First, it looked like we do business. And then robbed us first. And they went down there. Yeah, true. So with that being said, you know, the South was like based on that Bible belt, man. Like it's based in, like, that church thing. we didn't even think, had an idea of you can make bread from doing that thing.

It was just, we were just doing it. Even with rap, we were just battling because we saw the shit. We went thinking like, oh, you can make a living. We was already setting up in our mind. Our living was going to be a certain type of way, especially if you had grandparents around everybody. Church, you went to church, you had to get the band. I mean, you had to get in the chorus. I don't care if you could sing or not.

You're in the chorus. You've gone up in there sing that same thing. You sung at your auntie house last night. Going up there and sing it. that's how I grew up in that space and then once we got the business part of it I remember the first thing that clicked to me I saw Dallas Austin

at Lennox and that that nigga had shout out of Dallas that nigga had a, I think a 430 had a Ferrari something I saw that shit I was like wait he don't sell I know you don't sell dope

what you get he's like shit somebody told me like Oh, that nigga write. I said, I'm sorry, what? TLC. He said, he write music. I said, nigga, you get that for writing music.

Nigger, that changed my whole shit. I was like, oh, nigga. I've been doing that this whole time. You got a Ferrari out of that. You've been one of the few that are a star on your own when you drop your own music and able to write hits for others. Unfortunately, sometimes when people write hits

for other artists, humongous hits. They want to be an artist themselves and it never happened. It never pop off. And I personally, I think I'm one of the great minds

of music. I'm not lying to you, right? I really honestly believe that. If I told my family that, I'd be like, yo, I think, you know, I know this music shit.

Like, I'm arguing with Remy right now. I changed the drums on her new song and she don't like them. I know the hit. Don't play with me. Nah, I don't like it.

I said, no, I know the hit. I do the shorty swing my way Now you're out of here What you do? Some drums, Shorty swing my way Like I'm trying to,

you're going to make a girlie. Nah. We don't see that no more. You couldn't wait for that. I couldn't wait. I just seen some hips going. And I'm just look over here for a minute. I'm just trying to say

I know music. And so when I see brothers and sisters that write hits for other artists, but it don't happen for them, I couldn't figure that one out yet. I don't really have a real answer for somebody who writes the biggest shit in the world

and then they want to be an artist and they don't go nowhere. I don't have that answer. Like, you know, I really study all this shit and I'd just be like, and I'll be confused like how they can't blow up as an artist,

but you, one of the very few that could write umbrella, but write yourself hits and become a star on your own. You're double blessed by God is what I'm trying to. There's some other people that deserve it too, but it didn't happen for them. That means it didn't deserve. That's actually that's a good line.

Yo, this guy's crazy. I try to tell you all that shit. Seriously, no. You lost your mom's at 15. Yes. How did that impact? Oh, man, that's everything. That's everything.

thing, man. That was my favorite person. To lose my favorite person that like that's not, that won't ever not be a thing. It ain't something you even wake up like, all right, cool. Today I don't care if it's 12 p.m. 3.30. At some point you're going to think about it. The more

success you have, the more you think about because you know that they're not here to even bask in that thing to talk about hey man, it's my son. And it's my, you know, and it's a certain what the craziest part is to protect you missed of a mom looking at across like

what you want girl no no you need that thing is a un you don't need to talk about that it's a different type of thing they just step in like you don't know she had a conversation like hey don't come around here no more

you don't see yeah see that shit you don't see yeah but I used to go to war and come home my mom may know what was going on I throw my legs on and she rubbed my feet like I'm a baby wow and I understood that protection I was sitting the couch like

and your mom's always you said so how do you get over the trauma of being 15 losing your moms and just staying right because I got a nephew my sister passed away he ain't been the same sense if I ain't have music man it would be a different

it'll be a different story it's more than my outlet and a lot of those that's why I would have that kind of chemistry with re and be those things because I'm giving them a thing I can't even give my mom, by the way. And there's certain things happening on just even a spiritual level in those times where any time I see a woman in that space, that's just, that's my mom I'm dealing with.

Like, any time. And so you never get over, you turn it into, it's easier to say it to done, because you don't sound like something that a teacher to tell you, turn it into a positive, you know, whatever the thing is. But that's exactly what I did. A lot of those songs, man, near and dear that feel a certain type of way, all that feeling is still my love for my mom

and my admiration for her. And that's how I'm able to exist on that side and tell it from that point of view. I was having this conversation at the barbecue the other day. Glezy. Nah, the glissies always the glit. They made some whack glissies,

how you're going to make a whack glitzies, how you're going to make a whack glitz? man, that's when I knew shit was all this shit was bad, man. Like, the glizzy wasn't hitting. I was like, if the glizzy ain't, like, how do you fuck up a glizzy, my nigga? You buy the Nathens.

You boil this shit. How do you mess? I knew it wasn't a vibe, man. But listen, I'm not saying that. The beautiful thing about having a barbecue in the house, shout out DJ Serge, he was killing it. It's just, you just get

to playing music, and then we started discussing like movie soundtracks in like the 80s and 90s, and then in the face, they had waiting to excel at Boomerang.

Those soundtracks, like back in the day, soundtracks, Soul Food used to be like, the soundtracks used to be everything. I was just talking about this. I was like, man, you know what? It's because the culture

was so great at stuff, we dismissed it so soon and we just stopped doing certain shit. It's a testament to how great we are. We just get bored. We just try some other shit. That shit did never not work. It always worked.

It always hit straight home. Artists was able to graduate on those soundtrack. Out of a space. You have to use your own album to say, I'm trying to turn a corner here. Y'all going to let me turn it. They're like, not without that picture. I need a picture of what

that scene, whatever that scene is, I need that picture. And so we're not able to do that now because those type of films aren't even being generated in that space. And we just stopped doing it. That shit was like hip hop one and it. Like it was like, yeah. Even when BMX came from Pac-all-way, like, all together.

Boys to men. Like, they, man, they get some soundtracks has some shit on there. Mama. That shit was crazy. But that was an outlet. That was our thing. Have you ever not heard a song?

So think of all the music we consume and everything we know. Have you ever been to a barbecue and they play like an old school song? And you're like, what the fuck is that? My nigga, that shit happened to me. I was stuck. The song was so good. I made them play it three times. I'm like, what the fuck is that?

I never heard that. he was like this, my aunt knew it. I was so shocked. I never heard. I got to ask Serge, don't worry. Hopefully he wasn't frayed. He's like, I heard it three times. I don't know.

No, I made him play it three times. It was on B. Yeah. Oh, yo, I never heard it before. Yeah, every now and then that happens, though. I feel like. It's hard for me, man. I don't want to tell you that I'm damn near a foster one that old.

And I, listen, my mom's passed away. A faucet. Before she passed away, if I called her right now, she was sitting there listening to old, like, my family sold music. I mean, 24 hours a day, my mom's going to sleep. So it's so hard that I don't know her own school record. They can play that shit. That's the sound of crazy.

I was like, yo, what the fuck? What's that? I said, play that shit back. She was talking that shit. I was like, yo! And then I looked my aunt knew it, but I was asking everybody else. So you ever heard this shit? It was like, nah, I never heard this shit.

It was like, but did it? Has this ever been this song that you guys ever heard like at a barbecue and you was like, y'all, I never heard that before? Wow, that's a good one, Joe. I don't think of it has. Yeah, I just don't remember when it happened to me. That shit happened to me the other day, bro. That shit was crazy.

This song. is fucking amazing. And y'all, let me tell you something. Maybe we can save it for the next podcast, but your man, the chef at the restaurant, I'm trying to save them up by your way. I went to Italian restaurants, the greatest on the planet Earth.

The chef called me 100 times. It's a little joint, and I keep telling him, I told a chef like 20 times, your chef, he hit me up. He was like, yo, say the name. Say the name. I say, yo, I don't think you ready for this type.

We went Johnson's fried chicken. They used the mustard. I know down South you, I used the, over here is rare. But my spot, Johnson's fried chicken, they got the mustard sauce. Guys were selling 20 mustard sauce a week. Now they sell 85 mustard sauce a day because we mentioned their restaurant and we did something. I keep trying to warn this guy. He keeps saying, get due to who?

Oh. Well, ladies and gentlemen, the name of the restaurant is called Padre. Pio. It's right over Padre. Like Father Padre Pio. And it's right over that Cuomo bridge.

That was another, that was Tampus. You might want to call him now, though, and let him know. He told me to say it. Yeah, I know, but you won't let him. I begged him. I told him. Pio. Oh, then.

Run it up. Hey, don't run out of whatever you got over there. Don't run out of it. Y'all went two times in one week, and it's kind of fall from my house. It's like 45. I like them type of spots. It ain't the spot no more.

He made me say it. I don't think he understands. Now you can't go. You ain't going back? I can't get it. I probably get a fucking stoop at the bar seat. They're not giving me the shit. He just go Uber eat everything.

You ain't going back. Sir said you'll never know high gloss. You'll never know high gloss is the artist. This shit. Pull that up. Yo! Don't stop now. I'm at the pool.

A couple of 18 hundred Oh no This shit sounded like Like crap Wait till she starts talking that shit Ooh First ball Oh yeah

On our podcast, The Away End with Danielle Adlercon, John Green. We're talking about the games that have delighted us, the teams that have inspired us, what we're loving and what surprised us, all to the lens of being massive fans of the world's most beautiful game. Daniel, this tournament has been magical so far. The expanded field of teams has created some incredible matchups that have already made this World Cup one

to remember. And now things get even more exciting with the intensity of the knockout rounds as the field is whittled down to one World Cup champion on July 19th. When you say it like that, I got a pain in my heart that the tournament is over. But there's a lot of soccer yet to go. And if the first few games of the round of 32 are any indication, anything is possible in the lead up to the final. We've got it covered from an ultra's perspective here on the away end.

Mainstream media is full of cruel depictions of the unhoused, stories that shame and blame and paint the online. unhoused as a monolith. We The In-House is the podcast that's changing that. I'm Theo Henderson, creator, and host. And for years, I've created a space where the unhoused and their advocates can tell their own stories.

In the last few months alone, I've interviewed unhoused parents, immigrants, mutual aid organizers, veterans, the LGBTQTIA plus community, and the policymakers who make the laws that impact the unhoused existence. Wey N'Hawes is a two-time webby and Signal Award-winning show with many exciting guests on the horizon. Tune in this week for my interview with Dr. Jill Wichler, a street doctor turned influencer whose work with the unhoused community has made a huge impact online and in her community. Listen to Weythian House on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. I'm Emily Oster. I'm an economist and data expert. And I'm Perry Wilson. I'm a medical doctor.

And this is our new podcast, Wellness Actually. Because you're getting a staggering amount of health and wellness information nowadays, and some of it is awesome. And some of it is, well, actually, bullshit. Fortunately, we're both people who know how to read studies, parse data, and can tell you what's worth trying out and what you can safely ignore. Each episode, we tackle the health news of the week and then take a deeper dive into a misunderstood health and wellness topic, like... What's the deal with peptide?

What's the deal with GLP-1s? What's the deal with creatine? What's the deal with cupping? What's the deal with sleep? So join us for a weekly dose of sanity. It might actually be just with the doctor. Or the economist. Ordered.
