Starting point is 00:17:10 with ODB I said it's very long but I'll tell you But one night I'm passing, I'm with my wife in the car. I think I had the Green Benz and it was that Cheetah Club. And I was just driving by and everybody was outside. And I seen, because you guys,
Starting point is 00:17:29 has serious beef with all the bouncers in every club in New York City. Like, I mean, y'all was public enemy number one. Y'all was Bin Laden out here. Right? Because y'all kept beating up the bounces and all that, right? Like, I don't know what the fuck it was. but I'm driving by and it's like 20 bouncer
Starting point is 00:17:46 cocked diesel dudes and they got like ODB kind of hemmed up and so I'm looking around the whole hip hop every I don't want to talk about who super rappers was out there and everybody was like minding their business
Starting point is 00:17:59 and it was just for a fact ODB was going to get stretched out because he arguing with them this this that and they're looking to beat them up these guys kept beating them up the bounces so they finally caught ODB by himself He was violent.
Starting point is 00:18:14 So I told my wife, she was like, yo, that's not your business. I said, yo, I got to pull. I can't actually see it and break out. Like, maybe thank God if I ain't said, I'm out. But I can't see it and not try. So I jump out the car. And, you know, ODB was crazy, rest of the piece.
Starting point is 00:18:37 So I'm trying to make sense to him. Like, yo, OD, you know, it's like 20, 30 dudes. they're looking to pound you out. Like, you got a chill. Like, yo, fuck them this. We the boo tank, this, that. So I kind of like talk them off the cliff. Like, and I'm telling them, you see all these rap niggins.
Starting point is 00:18:53 They don't give a fuck. They're going to watch you get pounded out. They all out here ain't nobody trying to help you, right? I almost had him. Then he was like, you. No, no, I almost had him. Right? And then he was like, you see that, Joe?
Starting point is 00:19:07 The killer bees. They're coming from the, I said, oh, my God. He was hallucinating that the killer bees was coming. Like the video, like Triumph. At this one, I knew I said, yo, ODB. I told him bounces, yo, ODB, don't disrespect this, that. It was like, no, Joe, this. I couldn't do nothing because the man saw hallucinating that the killer bees.
Starting point is 00:19:31 You see that? The killer bees are coming. He believed the video, Steve. Steve Rifkin in the house was loud records responsible for Wu-Tang. Big Pond Mom, D. You know, I used to think
Starting point is 00:19:46 I was the only one to love Steve. I ain't going to lie to you. Right? So, you know, we all gave him a heart. He had the wildest guys in the world,
Starting point is 00:19:54 right? So we go up to the office, everybody giving him a hard time. What happened? You want your flag? Give him the flags. What are we throwing the flags for a kiss?
Starting point is 00:20:03 Give him the flag. No, I thought I was the only one that's the flag on the play? No. It's the flag. No, I'm going to tell you why.
Starting point is 00:20:12 Because many times in my life, even in the drug game, I would find a connect that I really looked up to and be like, yo, I got you. You feed me. I'm going to always be loyal to you. So I used to look at Steve changed my life. You understand what I'm saying? He bought my mother's house.
Starting point is 00:20:32 He made me move out the projects and bought a house. So you know how generous Steve is. So I used to look at him and be like, damn, if Steve only knew, I'm the most loyal to him. Like, I got him like nobody else. But I know he knew I was there. Everybody warned him I was real dangerous when he signed me. So everybody told him, yo, this guy, you got to watch him, this.
Starting point is 00:20:54 So he probably had an extra antenna up for me. But I was really looking at him. Like, one day, I'll prove to you. I'm loyal. You're going to. And what we did the what? What was it, the 30th anniversary of BET? Remember?
Starting point is 00:21:07 And everybody showed up. And every artist he ever has showed up, free, perform, loved each other, hugged each other. We had hud whoops. That's when I said to myself, man, you ain't the only one that loves Steve Rifkin. Like, everybody loved this man right here. So shout out to Steve, man. You changed all our lives, man. We love you, brother.
Starting point is 00:21:30 And we'll continue to support you. But you two, you know, I know y'all got a tour coming up. I know I know that and we're going to support and we're coming, right? But I want to get more into like prodigy. What was it like being next to Pete? How did you ever even meet? How did you meet? Hello, yo, I'm a half.
Starting point is 00:21:53 I'm prodigy. Yeah. You know, I met him through a mutual friend in high school and shit. You know what I mean? I got to the high school before him, the high school, all designed in the hat. And then my junior year, he came in. The audience is off.
Starting point is 00:22:09 I mean, you went down. This is on now, hell and all that shit came out in high school? Before high. I mean, no, no, no, no, no. Kind of, kind of like during high school. Kind of like, you know what I'm saying? So I met him, and then he came in. And I remember how I went to WBLS with Molly Maher.
Starting point is 00:22:27 He was on the radio back then, and Trash brought me up there and shit. Shout out to Trash. Yeah, shout out to Trash. I seen this kid in there. I kept looking at him. He looking at me. I'm like, dang. He was at BLS?
Starting point is 00:22:39 No, he wasn't, it was this kid. He, come to find out, the nigger went to my school, you know what I'm saying? So I was like, oh, shit, you go to a home design, blah, blah, X, Y, Z. Making a long story short, he knew Pete. You know what I'm saying? And that's how we all got together. It's like, you know what I mean? He knew Pete.
Starting point is 00:22:54 My man Black, he from the Bronx. So that's how I started hanging out in the Bronx. Did he spit, like, when you heard Prodigy for the first time, then he spit, like, was he talking? No, no, he was not that prodig. That's why, like, if I, if I was a, if I was a prodigie, If I wasn't there, if I wasn't there to witness it myself, I would have thought somebody else who wrote P-Rimes. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:23:14 Because the nigger just switched from juvenile hell and then went into infamous mode. And I saw, I was there. Nobody didn't write it. And I was like, how do fucking do that? I feel like he tricked me. You know what I'm saying? But he didn't show you all the chambers.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Yeah, he didn't show you all the most. He didn't show you the Euro stack. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, you know what I'm saying? And the thing, he just, he just started going in. But the interesting part about it to me is this, you know, everybody's saying how great Pete is and all this at the third. When you up close on something, you really don't know the scene like that.
Starting point is 00:23:51 You understand what I'm saying? Because I, you know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? He was just like, okay, you're good. He used to be spitting the rhymes in my ear, you know, in the studio and shit like that. And I'm like, oh, shit, you know, that's cool. But now when I think about it and I listen back to that, I'm like, damn, this nigga was a beast.
Starting point is 00:24:07 Oh, man. He was like a, like, an animal. No, he had his own. He wasn't like one. He had his own vocabulary. And he was like nobody else. So it wasn't like he was trying to be somebody else. He had his own vocabulary.
Starting point is 00:24:23 He had his own. You know, I, you know, this time I ride around, shout out my man, Ritz de Barber. I ride around with Rich, big fans of both of you guys. And we'll just play, like, your album and just say, word for word and just and then that says a lot about you right because you had to keep up with somebody

Starting point is 00:32:40 But like with the youth, I feel like unless I don't see what's going on, that's what they miss. You know what I'm saying? It's more like making music for a moment. Everybody want to catch, get a bag. It ain't like that level of, you know, respect for the art of like what you're going to say. You know, we fucking rockin babies, KRS babies. we fucking LL Koojay baby So we had no choice
Starting point is 00:33:04 But to just admire what everybody was doing And bring what they bring it to the terrace You had to step your shit up Like I felt like I was really in school When I discovered big pun But big pun taught me So I used to sit there with him And he'd be disrespecting me like
Starting point is 00:33:19 For him being my little brother He'd be like you're limited You give up easy Go all the way 16 means 16 You got 12 hot ones But you want to give up up on the last four.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Like, I was at Warden School with this guy. And it was like, and he was sharping me up. So when he passed. So Pun was around you before you, before you got on? No, no, no. I was around two albums before Pun. I met Punn the last day
Starting point is 00:33:46 I was heading in my second album. I put him on my album. As soon as I heard him, I was like, oh, no, you met him. Right at that point. I called you, we did Firewater. Me, you, be real. And then something that's so crazy is, like I always tell the story. I did a show
Starting point is 00:34:02 with Wu-Tang, and they got 500, and I got 500 differences. They had 13 dudes. So I didn't know. I really honestly ain't understand how the math was going to math. Talk a list. Right? And so, and then Ray and me become tight out of all Wu-Tang
Starting point is 00:34:18 and he's beyond, the hottest guy in the fucking globe, and I could call him at any time, and he show up. In 10 minutes to the studio, what's up, Joe? So I'm like, yo, this my artist's big punt. And Did he just jumped on the joint? And that was the first joint that we ever put out with Punt.
Starting point is 00:34:35 Yeah, because you introduced me to him. You know, he was like, you know, I was coming up there to see you because you said, yo, you wanted me to come through. And I remember that day clear because my little brother, you know what I mean, he had graduated and I had bought him a SC 300, the SC 400, you know, back then. And I told him, I said, yo, I said, yo, you got to kind of the Bronx. Because, you know, you know what I mean? I ain't know if he really know how to fully drive yet.
Starting point is 00:35:00 So it's like when he came, when he came, right? It's like all of us, like when he walked to the door, we always like in here and shit. When he walked through, everybody, he's like, oh, he made it. But anyway, Megalong Sturvy Short, you said, yo, I'm wanting to introduce you to somebody. So I said, what's up? What are you going to do?
Starting point is 00:35:18 So I see this other port of me big nink come out of shit. So he was like, yo, he rhymes. So, you know, I'm like, yo, he's like, yo, let me spit for you. And say, yo, you can spit for you. Yeah, let me hear it. That nigger said, plunging said. Plunger just said, boom, bha, boom, bing, ping, bong. I looked at Joe, I said, that's one of them.
Starting point is 00:35:35 Yeah, he said, you got one. He said, that's one of them. Exactly. I remember that shit clear his day. And it's like, he was like, yo, you mind if he get on this firewater wreck? And I was like, put them on. Say, yo. And ever since then, I think that's when your loyalty level for me, it grew at an all-time high.
Starting point is 00:35:53 I get back. First video, we threw the suits on. Yeah. Sky blue shitty, pull up. This man never let me do. down this whole life. Never let me down. I got to salute him for that.
Starting point is 00:36:04 That's another level of, you know, Jada kiss, I'm 20 years waiting on the verse, but it's okay. It's my business partner. But that ain't true because we all got down on the car. God, that ain't true. I'm fucking with him. I got a pick on this guy.
Starting point is 00:36:17 My lifestyle. John Blaze. Yeah. Should we go on? Mm-hmm. John Blaze. We forgot that off. No, no, I didn't forget.
Starting point is 00:36:28 Trust me. But we got that off. That's why I told him. I threw a wise crack at him the other day because he was a baby when we did John Blaze. He came through. He was like the youngest dude doing it. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:36:41 And that John Blaze, that's when you had to rhyme in the studio type of shit. It wasn't like, said somebody you beat. Right. The shit had come back. It was like you had to show up. That's why I was just about to ask you.
Starting point is 00:36:53 All on 36 chambers and all, everybody had to be there for every session, right? Most of the time I say about at least like 90% there Because you know we was up in Riz's basement You know Rizzo had this little hole in the wall spot And it was like almost like
Starting point is 00:37:11 A studio apartment So when you come in The shit was real small And it was like a little stove You know what I mean They had a little chair there Like two chairs Like what the fuck we're gonna do with two chairs
Starting point is 00:37:22 And you know So we're in the room And it's like everybody's just Sitting on the floor or somebody might be standing up. And, yeah, you know, a lot of times it was like, yo, it was like being on a fucking assembly line. You don't know.
Starting point is 00:37:39 Like, yo, now you come through and you throw something in the hell. You say something. But at that time, it was like going back to With Dirty, you know how he was so influential because he's seen something in the group. He's seen something. When they started to formulate this thing called Wu-Tang Clan, it was like Dirty had a lot to do
Starting point is 00:37:58 with orchestrate money. You know, that's why I always call him a general, too. You know, Rizzo, of course, a general, but, you know, that was the next general, you know, and he was very voistrous. Like, it's almost like you write a bar, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta come over there and get his approval, you know, and it's like.
Starting point is 00:38:16 He's like a coach. Yeah, yeah, but. He's motivating everybody. Exactly, exactly. And it's like, and it's like the beats, he was, he even knew how to make beats. So he was even in Rizzo. See, he starts singing.
Starting point is 00:38:28 And that shit on them songs, too. So they, oh, dirty, he really thought you to see. Next to Rizzen, like, you know, yeah, they was orchestrating together. There was some sauce in it. Yeah, but you know, but you know before the wool and all that shit, it was the Jizzers, dirty and Rizzo running around doing whatever they was doing. They was called the All in Together now crew. So they was already, you know, splashing, going, doing battles and all of that.
Starting point is 00:38:54 So when they started to form this shit, it was almost like, we knew. we had three, three bosses, you know? So, yeah, he might say something, but he don't have to say nothing, but he's saying something. That's the chemistry that they had. So we just had to follow what they march in order as well. Do I have, was there ever a group that almost happened
Starting point is 00:39:15 that we never heard about? Like, was it always just going to be you and Prodigy or was you ever going to team up, let's say, with tragedy or this? Was there ever another group? Yeah, I definitely teamed up with a few, cats from from the bridge it just never paned out work yeah it didn't pan out anybody big we know about no no you wouldn't know they names you know from y'all rap annoyed was my guy man that's that's my guy who's right you're the rapper noi yes my dog you're the rapa noi you know that i was i was
Starting point is 00:39:50 you know it's certain guys who uh in cruise yeah when they when they shit came on and they they might not been the main star, but, you know, it touched you. Like, it was like, yo, I used to see him. And be like, yo, you're rapping. No, it was something. Like, you know, he used to. They made him a star. They made, yeah, he was, he was a hidden, a hidden gem, my favorite.
Starting point is 00:40:12 How did you mean? Alchemists, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We met Alchemist through kind of like, you know, we used to go to L.A. when we first started going to L.A., and we hooked up with Mugs, with D.J. Mugs. Yeah. So we was telling him with Mugs or whatever, whatever. And, you know, Godfather and.
Starting point is 00:40:28 and Liddy and twin and all of them kind of like, you know, used to really befriend mugs and so AOC was down with mugs and then that's how they kind of met him ALC first, so he used to be getting weed from him and shit. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:40:44 Because Al used to live in NYC down in there in Soho, so he used to had a weed. Had to plug for that fire. Yeah, he had to plug for the fire and he was making beats. You know what I'm saying? So the chatter was going around, you know what I'm saying? This kid, you know what I'm saying Alchemis he over there making
Starting point is 00:40:59 a piece. I said, let me see what the fuck this shit about. You know what I'm saying? So I went to Al Krimm and I was like, oh shit, this white chocolate, you know what I'm saying? This thing is crazy. He got that shit. Word of the brother. He had that shit. He's one of them guys, him and Prime,
Starting point is 00:41:15 where the fine New York sound, hip hop, but they're not from New York. It's weird when you find out he's from L.A. Prim. You wouldn't even knew. You weren't even knew he was from L.A. back in those days. Never, ever, ever. Alchemist?
Starting point is 00:41:28 Yeah, he wasn't even to know. I thought he was from my bed. See what I'm saying? Wow. So what's crazy is that, you know, and I'm also glad to see. A little prima from Houston, man. Well?
Starting point is 00:41:39 Prima. Yeah, I knew that. Right. It's another one. He would have never knew. He said his cousins used to bring him tapes, like magic and red alert tapes all the way out to Houston. And he was studied the game,
Starting point is 00:41:50 and then he finally moved over here. But Alchemist is good to see. I feel like every now and then, some of us we have a moment. He has a moment right now. And so the game is finally recognizing all his contributions to hip hop. And he's doing joints with Freddie Gibbs and now Erica Badoo. You know, Erica Badoo straight royalty.
Starting point is 00:42:14 You know what I'm saying? The most I ain't Badoo. She's a different level of excellence. She's on the best though. Yeah, I know. She's one of super fans. She definitely is super fans. She, look, we all know.
Starting point is 00:42:27 She's different. But to see Alchemist work with her, and it feels like right now he's the go-to guy. Absolutely. You want to get hot, go see Alchemist right now. But he put in that work. He did. It wasn't overnight.
Starting point is 00:42:41 No. He definitely put that work in. And then I didn't understand how you and Prodigy come up together and you one of the greatest producers of the whole time. I didn't understand, like, how their relationship, they start making a lot of music together. Like, how did that happen? And they just met up and started.
Starting point is 00:42:58 I mean, it was natural. I mean, if you got an... Just hanging around. Yeah, if you got another cat just making tracks, you know what I'm saying? And he's becoming part of the family. It's like, I'm not stingy. You know what I'm saying? So I'm like, let's get it.
Starting point is 00:43:10 You know what I'm saying? That's a little bit workload off of me. You know what I can start writing some moms and shit. Y'all, I'm going to tell you some crazy shit. We had your wedding. Steve was with us and we're going towards your wedding. And we was like in a van with Riza. And so I asked Rizzo because Rizzo is stingy.
Starting point is 00:43:28 He didn't want the Wutane with nobody else. So I said, oh, Rizzo, man, how you let me, you know, how you let Ray be cool me? He said, I'm going to tell you the truth. I ain't really like it at first. Because I'm Wizz, I want it all Boutang. You know what I'm saying? But I knew you and him had a real connection. Y'all was brothers.
Starting point is 00:43:44 And I was like, yeah, get rock out with Fadjo if you want. I was like, yo, I looked at Ritz. I was like, thank you, oh, you let him rock with me. Because Rizzer definitely wasn't playing that type of shit. He definitely He definitely was training us Like Doverman's kiss He's beating us
Starting point is 00:44:01 A fucking beating us A washing washing machine hoses Bung stay right here Boom But you know He had a plan You know he had a plan And like you said
Starting point is 00:44:13 Yeah he was He definitely had selfish ways Because at that time You got to remember Nobody wasn't fucking With Staten Allen niggas Oh no You know what I'm saying
Starting point is 00:44:22 So we had a vengeance You know what I mean? It's like, yo, come on, we've been partying since we was 14 years old going to the rooftop, going here, going to the quarters, you know, you know, Queens, you know, Chavagas Square. And, yo, Brooklyn and House, Queens and House, Bronx and House, you'd be waiting for Staten Island, and you don't hear it? It's like, now we want to fight.
Starting point is 00:44:44 We came to party, but now we want to fight. You know, so that mentality always stayed with all of us. You know, like, yo, like fuck all the motherbarrows. Like, y'all think something sweet of it, but not really knowing that a lot of niggas that lived in Staten Island, too, was from Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, Manhattan, that they migrated there. You understand what I'm saying? And it's still some real-ass niggas that was from there anyway, but we had something to prove. And I think that was part of his mystique on how he wanted to approach the game, like, yo, it was just our shit. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:45:20 So at first we was all down with it because we seen the vision. But then as we got in the game, it started, niggas started throwing flowers at us and, you know, showing us, you know, super love. It's like, yo, I'm a fan too. I like that, nigger. You know, so we come back, yo, you know what I mean? I could see how his energy would change.
Starting point is 00:45:38 And I'm like, to me, it was like, nigger, I'm going to go, man. I'm going to do what I want to do anyway, you know, but I still respect the cold of what it is because at the end of the day, we had a vision, you know? So that's the kind of the same shit That made the locks The locks
Starting point is 00:45:55 Go on the parties We turned it on video music box We're doing this They shouting everybody out Ralph Showed the clip With you on video music box Don't do it
Starting point is 00:46:04 For this man Did you listen You know how much We turned on the radio They shout out Long Island Staten Island Brooklyn Queens
Starting point is 00:46:15 Bronx Mount Vernon New Roch Skip right over. And we're right in the middle. And we're like, all right, motherfuckers. We're going to show y'all. And I give you that, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:46:29 Hey, we had no, I had no, there's no Melly Mel. There's no Mellie Mell. There's no Nause. I'm coming outside seeing one-hour way. Mugas like that, man. It was none of that. Heavy D wasn't too far away, Mount Vernon. Mount Vernon, but we can't, even though Havis showed us wild love
Starting point is 00:46:49 And then them took, after we got with the riders, we was able to go to Ave's crib and meet him, punching the punching bag. But before that, we got nothing. Not going outside. Punching back? Ever was nice in boxing. That's the one.
Starting point is 00:47:03 No, fuck. Hell of the way. For Hever, he wanted to catch it fucking flurry and all the type of shit. You know, Hav was like, you know, if we're going to keep it a stack, this whole interview has been really, really 100. He was somebody I really, really looked up to my whole life growing up. And, yeah, I was super cool with HeavyD, but I never told him how much he influenced me. So even now I throw on outfits and I think I'm fly and I look at some old pictures of
Starting point is 00:47:36 heavy, he wore that shit 20 years ago. I'd be like, damn, have had that shit on. To me, have made big niggas like us, he made it confident. Have, man. Have opened a gateway for Big Nick. Yes, definitely. He made it a land. Your nays.
Starting point is 00:47:50 We got, look what I'm doing. Come on in it. And so I actually became cool wherever. He used to come to Miami, hang out with us and everything. But I never told them the truth. Like, I never said, you know, you're like my idol. Like, you really, really, really, really, really, really, really inspired me. You know, and so the first time I'm in a half, we was at Tavern on the Green.
Starting point is 00:48:15 And I'm using a bathroom. Somebody walked in and he's got to flow. You got to, when I turned around, it was heavy deep. You almost died. Like, you don't know how much I used to look at. I used to do the dance moves, like, heavy study the videos, everything. So when I finally met him, because I've seen the many times, rooftop places for far, like a fan. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:48:37 Like, oh, shit, heavy deep. But when I finally got to mix it up with him, I did, you know, HeavyD, he was a special guy, man. But you got Mary, we got DMX. I was the next came up together. Mary came before. I know what I'm just saying. Well, it's somebody before. Yonker jad over like a fat rat.

Starting point is 01:03:40 because the way his mind works he's just always thinking of how to create revenue for the crew and the famine you know what I mean
Starting point is 01:03:49 bring ideas to life and all that so how the emperor's new clothes on mass appeal in a in a raw
Starting point is 01:03:59 of mean drops in clientele to the slick Rick joint have when you come October 10th you're on mass appeal 10th
Starting point is 01:04:07 yes this is a clip loaded of monsterish iconic seven albums yeah I mean so how did this even
Starting point is 01:04:17 come about it happened like like real quick right because I was already working on a project and I was trying to figure out how I was going to go about it if I was going to do an indie
Starting point is 01:04:28 or I was going to go pictures how you wanted to roll it there but then I was talking to this dude that worked up in Massapel and he told me about what they was doing. So, you know, I'm like, wow,
Starting point is 01:04:41 Legends has it. I said, yo, who's the tools up there? So then they started, you know, mentioning who was there. I'm like, damn, those are all my friends. Like, damn, I'm like, I said, it might be smart to, you know, be a part of that juice crew vibe.
Starting point is 01:04:57 And really, we can help each other now. You know what I mean? Where it's like, you know, yo, I want you to win. We all going to win. So the idea of it alone, I don't know. I was just looking at it.
Starting point is 01:05:08 You know, some super friend shit. So I ain't even call Nas, you know what I mean? Yo, I kept him out of it, you know? But I said, yo, the guy that I was talking to, you know what I mean? He was like, yo, I could call Nas's partner. So I said, yo, look, if they could do this, that, this, that, that, say, yo, I'm down. But I said, but here's the catch.
Starting point is 01:05:29 It got to happen in 24 hours. You know what I'm saying? So it was like, because I already was getting ready to bust a move. I had a move in place already. And it was like, I'm getting ready to go like this. But I'm telling them before I go like this, I'm like, that. Like, yo, we could pop that off. We're going to pop off.
Starting point is 01:05:48 I'm with it. So boom, next thing you know, they met my requirements on what I wanted. And then me and Nas got on the phone. But the crazy shit is that me and Nas, we always talk all the time anyway. Like we, hey, now and I might get a call from them. We get a call. So we always talk. But we talk about life.
Starting point is 01:06:07 We talk about kids. and, you know what I mean? You know, his mom's, God bless, his mother, his mom's name is Ann, my mom's name was Ann, his brother named Jabari, my son named Jabari. All this is just happening out of the blue.
Starting point is 01:06:19 So we got like a real bond, and especially from back in the early 90s. So, you know, we platonically build him. But when this happened, it was like, yo, he was, you know, he hit me. He was like, yo, I heard, yo, welcome to the family. I'm like, yo, it's an honor to come over there and rock a roll with you, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:06:37 because I felt like that that that hoster was a serious hostess, you know what I mean? And then on top of it having my favorite, you know what I mean? Like these are all my favorites, but Rick, you know, to me, that's like, that's like my big bro right there. You know what I'm saying? Like we always love a ruler just style, storytelling, flow, bounce, British nigger, you know what I mean, wiled up. Or, you know, it was just like, wow, they got a little clipover. it is so it just happened it was just one of those things where it was like
Starting point is 01:07:11 yo I got a project and I love what y'all doing and one thing led to the next and it was only popping after that far now how about you? Esco reached out of your workers y'all been connected connecting was connected right right right
Starting point is 01:07:27 now you know Esco the brother like you know I know I know I'm from fucking preschool so you know so you guys went to preschool you guys won't always say He's younger. I'm madge.
Starting point is 01:07:39 He's younger. No, no, no, we really did. I know each other from the block. That wasn't in the same grade, was. We probably, we wasn't in the same grade, but you. But after, after school, you got to go to priest. They're calling you when they call to. I'll see it.
Starting point is 01:07:52 You got to like a after school thing. Until your parents get out of work. So we was, we knew each other from there. But it was a no-brainer for me, you know what I'm saying? Like, I'm trying to, I was trying to do the project. You know what I'm saying? One, the one last sobrival. you know what I'm saying for prodigy and um you know Niles gave me the lane real quick
Starting point is 01:08:12 so how hard is it after the fact to make it sound like a mob deep how hard was it yeah no it wasn't hard at all man like you know look pit owl you know what I'm saying ALC got the sounds I got the sounds we got the verses it ain't gonna sound nothing but maud you know what they you know who did that really well is uh Premor and guru that last album they threw out together I felt like guru was he was almost shit like he
Starting point is 01:08:41 like he had FaceTime like yo no no I'm not that album like there did not sound outdated the bars sounded like guru was around the corner you know that was a really great album that they put together
Starting point is 01:08:56 but um the Mar-D got you off but that's how this Mar-D Bible won't sound like the shit is like when it come on the shit is scary like you it feel like he he
Starting point is 01:09:07 Yeah, like, you know what I'm saying? And certain little things that he's saying is like he got this like premonition thing going on. You know, I'm going to give too much time. Yeah. Don't doubt. Wait, but, you know, it's like that. So, you know, just get ready for some dope shit. You know, when they say they got a saying, it's like, yo, that ain't age well.
Starting point is 01:09:28 Mm. You know, lately I've been listening to a lot of Tupac. Yeah. And the man sounds like he's down the block right now. with the shit and the messages and everything you were saying. It's so relevant to what's going on today. That's what's the way that way to Ray been doing interviews and promo for the new album saying they're putting a lot of shit under our own brother
Starting point is 01:09:53 that don't even go under our own brother. Like they're crediting, they're calling people hip-hop. They do good music, but it ain't supposed to be over here. And then that gets you the new viewers and the new customers and the new people that want to get into the culture and get misconstrued because you look at that's something
Starting point is 01:10:15 that they're saying this hip-hop how many years and it shouldn't even be it should be in a whole other another. Not love. But not the country, kiss, you know, that had a lot to do with the title because, see, it's a Danish folk tale about a king.
Starting point is 01:10:33 This is, it's called Empress New Clothes. You know what I mean? It's a, um, cartoon type of, um, on folktale. But anyway, it's about a king, right? And the king, you know, he's a fly nigger. He, he loved to get fly. This is what he do. Now, some scammers, which I call industry snakes, or whatever the case may be,
Starting point is 01:10:54 came to his spot and saying, yo, we got some gear for the king. So, you know, his men, before he get to the king, he got to his men. And, um, you know, they was like, girl, what you got? He was like, yo, we got clothes that's going to fuck everything up for this shit right here, blah, blah, blah. So they like, were,
Starting point is 01:11:13 so they like before they went to go to the king, they said, yo, let me see it. Let me try it on. You know what I'm saying? So when they went and seen it now, check it, y'all, this is where it gets real. This is where it really gets real.
Starting point is 01:11:24 So when they went to go see this shit, niggas is like this, this is it. So whatever's in their hand is nothing. It's nothing in your hand. Nothing. Nothing. No clothes. no nothing. This is the outfit. This right here is the shit. So now they go back and they start
Starting point is 01:11:42 talking amongst each other and saying, well, damn, it ain't nothing in his hand, but we're scared we don't want to fuck around and miss the opportunity to present sign to the king that might be dope. So we're going to say that is some shit. So they came back to the king and then now they told them. And then when they came back, when the king came back and he's seen it, now he's he's looking at them like fucking close here, man. But y'all saying this is what it is? Yo, this is what it is.
Starting point is 01:12:13 This is what it is. So they sold him into something that wasn't real. So I don't want to go too deep into it. But that's how I feel about the game right now. You know what I mean? Anything that niggas say, we're supposed to just credit it.
Starting point is 01:12:26 We're supposed to just co-sign it? Like, seriously? You know what I'm saying? Like, don't get me wrong. And back to what you were saying about all I was trying to do. hating on the generation that's here today
Starting point is 01:12:38 my thing is just like all of us is man's man niggas so it's like if we don't feel that way you can't sell me that you know what I mean I just feel like a lot of times we get sold on shit because it's a vanity move for anybody
Starting point is 01:12:54 it's yo I did it first or yo this or whatever or putting a lot of shit to be shit that it ain't it really ain't now now now look at it like this like in And rock music, you see how they, they separate shit. This is punk rock. This is hardcore metal.
Starting point is 01:13:11 This is this. This is that. But it's all under the... Make it all work. It's all under the thing of rock music. So I just feel like, yo, we be paling shit all up in there and calling it this and calling it that when they really... They ain't at that. So if I was to do something, not the culture, if I was to do something that was outside my element,
Starting point is 01:13:29 I might as well be outside with no clothes. And allowing, you know, whatever is something. somebody else is dictating to be what it is when I know that that's not what it is. You know what happened, right? Remember, they used to have these seminars in, like, D.C. and all that. How can I be down, shit
Starting point is 01:13:46 like that? I never forget. It's really weird now that I can't say who because it really don't make no sense. Because it was just really early hate. Well, I had to start saying who. No, I can't say who. He was like a bunch of living legends was on the stage to
Starting point is 01:14:04 something like this and then people could ask some questions after they were talking panel but some girl got up and said yo what do you think
Starting point is 01:14:14 about the leaders in the new school this is when them boys was on fire right just another case of that they were the first
Starting point is 01:14:24 young group to have it on franco when they was like yo who is they right and one of the
Starting point is 01:14:33 legends of all legends and I, you know, it was like, yo, I don't understand that shit, that shit, whack, this and this and that. I'm a hot 17 years old, 18. I look, because, you know, we worship these guys, and I was like, yo, they hating on the young dudes coming up. And so I always told myself,
Starting point is 01:14:56 I never hate on the young dudes, but some of the shit the young dudes be doing is out of control right now. No, no, I'm not going there. You're right. I'm not going there, and we got to accept all type of weird shit going on. But look, not to cut you off, right? You got to remember, they ain't come from the shit we come from, right? So it's the same way how our parents, when they was hearing the music that we love.
Starting point is 01:15:23 What the fuck is that? They came up one of the OJs and, you know what I mean? Stephanie Mills and this and that or whatever. So I guess in a way, you know what I mean? It's normal for us to be like, yo, we can't be. really relate all the way, but my thing is just that now it's at an all-time high of a lot of
Starting point is 01:15:40 suck of shit going on. Oh. And real nigga, because I should be real niggas, ain't really being like, yo, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up. Hold up. Nah. You know, because I look at our forefathers the same way we sit in here and we're talking about the canes, the this,
Starting point is 01:15:57 the ricks, the carers, or that. You know, they taught us to be this way. This school is supposed to be this way. You know, now it's turning into a different school, you know, and my thing is that do your thing, shout out all the young knicks. Because one thing about me, I want you to get money, man, because hip hop saved a lot of lives, my nigger. You know what I mean? And we turned the economy up into a whole different stratosphere. So get money.
Starting point is 01:16:24 Do what you do. Get money. But stop calling everything fucking hip hop, man. You know what I'm saying? Because everything ain't hip hop. You know, you might be ill at what your, with your. technique is, you know what I'm saying? But, yo, that might not just be hip-hop.
Starting point is 01:16:39 That's not enough to be like, yo, all right, yo, you get the fucking, the shit on your neck. The shit I hate the most. You didn't earn the thing. One of the things I hate the most is I'm a news junkie. I go to sleep with the news on it. If I'm home, I'm watching the 10, 11 o'clock news. I'm a news junkie.
Starting point is 01:17:01 Like, anywhere I go. Like, yes, last night I was in Toronto watching the Toronto news. Am I in VA? I'm watching the VA. I want to see if they're killing the dudes in the habit. Like, I'm watching, right? And so, um, what's crazy is
Starting point is 01:17:17 everybody who either gets killed or kill somebody, they'd be like, rap star. And they'd be like, Junior X, Rallo Wallo. This one, we don't know who these niggas. These niggas don't even got a demo. Why everybody got to be hip-hop who's kilt or even killed?
Starting point is 01:17:39 And what makes you like a rapper? Like, would you cut a demo? And all of a sudden, the news is saying rapper, rap star. It's like, who are these guys? You understand? And it's like, we always get the brunt of it because I watch it. Whatever is always a rap dude. And then you got to Google them.
Starting point is 01:17:58 I think Jay Cole said it best one time. He said, I ain't even know. I had to Google him after they were saying on the news Hip-hop star Like, you know, because just because you rap or you got a demo or you got a this don't mean
Starting point is 01:18:13 you really a rapper. And another thing I got a problem with is everybody's saying they're in the industry. Like, what industry, bro? If you ain't got no fucking money and you're playing Xbox in the couch
Starting point is 01:18:29 30-some years old, what? industry. We all had our moments. We all had our learning. You know, we all had entourages. We all had what we don't want to call groupies.
Starting point is 01:18:43 Groupies around us because we hot right now, this and that. Crazy as shit is I go see a boogie. He's performing over here, Madison Square Guard. He's something to come out with him. I come in this green room and there's a dude
Starting point is 01:18:59 that used to be with me pun in our Green Room. Grown ass, man, A. Boogie, your little dude up in there, like, he's one of the guys, I look at this dude, and I couldn't fucking believe this. This guy's a lifelong groupie. Yo.
Starting point is 01:19:15 He got to be. John Blaze, and then I walk in A. Boogie shit, and the niggas up in there playing Xbox with them acting like, I look at this dude, I can't believe he spent this whole life doing this. In Greenwood.
Starting point is 01:19:31 And he's telling his family he's in the industry. He ain't in no fucking industry. No, I want to know, though. Like, why you open up a Pandora's box.
