So if you're going through something with your mom, even if you're not going through something with your mom, understand that you only get one of them, so love them to death, all right? Let's get into a million hours worth of game. it seems to me that people in today's society is not really working for the long term
Starting point is 00:08:27 you know the long term is not really it's not really a thing now like when I started I started giving out me and I was worth a game in 2011 2012 you know what I'm saying I got a video from eight years ago with me Meek Mills I mean 12 years ago ago. So that would be
Starting point is 00:08:46 2008, right? Yeah, 08. Right. And I'm in the studio. It's me, his Meek Mills, it's Black to Nero, and you know, I'm just talking shit on the camera and I see it. God damn, Meeke, got that much time then? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Fuck, man, you y'all still be looking at him
Starting point is 00:09:03 like he's just as young, but that's crazy. No, Mick, you got to understand. Meek start popping at an early age, man, and me, got to be about 31, 32 now. But, God, I'm still looking at me like, something like that, right? Me, got to be about 30, 31, 32, something. So, you know, it's like back then I was saying on a video, you know, I give a million hours of game for free if you need it, just holler at me. And I said, damn, I said that 12 years ago. And then I look up and it's 12 years later a million dollars worth of game as a whole brand, it's a whole company, it's a whole movement, it's a record label, you know.
Starting point is 00:09:40 and it's like you realize that damn I've really put work in you know what I'm saying we've really put working to make this brand something that could last a lifetime and not something that's just here today
Starting point is 00:09:56 and going tomorrow but I notice in today's society a lot of people was all about the quick flip the quick flip mentality yeah that's a mentality everything is about I think people look at whatever we're doing
Starting point is 00:10:08 we look at it like society as a whole we look at it like I see what they're doing they're making it happen you didn't see the hard shit you didn't see the struggle you didn't see the couch service
Starting point is 00:10:18 and none of that shit and you're like you got that you know because some of us come from that hustle bustle from the bottom the ground so it'll be like we want that quick flip
Starting point is 00:10:26 real quick so we're looking at business even as you know starting the brand even if the brand is ourselves like I need this shit by six months or I need about four months or I need about 90 days
Starting point is 00:10:36 if I don't get it by then like you get frustrated and they just try to they don't know what to do so sometimes they start doing anything sometimes they give up sometimes they be like fuck it because it's like we living in it's like i said we living in an instant this microwave this microwave this matter of fact this is an air fry world should be done wham you know what i'm saying so it's like i want it right now i don't want to strategize with it i might have some illegal shit or bust some moves on an underground tip and that shit
Starting point is 00:11:02 you know underground shit happened like right now you know if you're in the streets you could be rich in no time if you really got a good hustle or good angle whatever So some people take that mentality of what they've seen in that world And try to transfer it into another world Not knowing that's not how you got to put work in here They want instant When you're changing lanes and shit Right
Starting point is 00:11:19 They want just instant success Like and nothing ever is instant right They said like what like businesses when you build it It takes three years to turn a profit Not to be a big success right Just to turn a profit So then it's like When you look at something that's 12 years
Starting point is 00:11:32 From my idea and now it's a company Most people don't got that type of patience To like see something through Or just to keep activating it for 12 years. Most people at the third year, they'd have been like, man, this ain't really,
Starting point is 00:11:43 it's not a movement yet. Why? It's not working. And it's just like, you know what? You got to stick with it. Back in the day, they knew that.
Starting point is 00:11:50 They would like work a job and they'd be like, oh, it's my 10th year with the company. You know, I'm moving up. And it's like, we have this microwave mentality.
Starting point is 00:11:58 I think internet changed anything because you can see people lives too much. Yeah. And there's always this comparison of like, oh man, they're doing this,
Starting point is 00:12:06 they doing that. No. And it's like, yeah, uh, Gillian Wallo they popped off in months. No, I wasn't Gillian Wallow popping off in months. It was when I was in jail
Starting point is 00:12:14 what he was doing. It was when I came out what I was doing. And listen, it took years to put that together them two type of energies, them two type of engagements, them two type attractions. And then when you looking at it, you're saying this shit is easy. No, it's not. It took me
Starting point is 00:12:31 20 years to get myself together mentally. You got to take that in consideration. To be able to come out here and be a beast every day grinding every day on these streets and all he made it happen and it took him all of them years you know you gotta think about
Starting point is 00:12:45 no you're looking at all the years and his momentum that's built up since I first told him listen man you can ride we go into studio but 95 96 he was rocking all the way to
Starting point is 00:12:54 you gotta look at all of that the people so a lot of times we just look at somebody else and be like oh that's easy I could do that and we expect it to happen now we're not taking in consideration that the work they put it
Starting point is 00:13:04 we're not taking the ups and downs that he went through the ups and me going to put we're not taking that All of that, they have a certain mindset to be able to roll things out a certain way. We don't look at that. They say comparisons to the Thief of Joy.
Starting point is 00:13:15 Like, it will still your joy. If you sit there and compare what you got going on the mind, and I'm like, damn, well, I ain't doing shit. So this just isn't working. But it's hard not to. When you see everybody life in real time, listen, I didn't know that this person, you never knew that this person started a company
Starting point is 00:13:33 or whatever brand in Houston, Texas. You didn't know about that last year. And now they got six different companies all over Texas. You didn't know about that at one time. But the technology lets you know everything with the click of it, just type it on the key or on your phone. So now it's like it's always going to be pressure for everybody. A lot of people, that's hard for people that's not measure their life with somebody else that they see because you see so much shit. And you would start to me in, I'm not doing shit.
Starting point is 00:14:00 I work in this lousy job. I'm in the fucking way. And not understanding that you're in your own lane, you're not a nobody way. And things could change quick I always look at that clip you posted Travis Scott and how he was playing like a little festival and he had like 20 people in the crowd And I remember it was an old interview with Tupac talked about it
Starting point is 00:14:19 He said he was doing a show while he was doing poetic justice And no not poetic justice What was the movie? No that was poetic justice Yeah he said he told Jana Jackson to come And she came and he said I was so embarrassed It was three people in the crowd He said but then before the end of the movie wrapped
Starting point is 00:14:34 I had my album dropped This happened. The movie come out. He said, I did a show sold out. The club is sold out. You know what I mean? A couple thousand people. It could change like that when you keep going.
Starting point is 00:14:45 But you keep looking at you're like, the people aren't filling me yet. It's like that could change. The right. For Kanye, everybody wasn't up on Kanye. Now look, but he keep grinding. But look how long it took. Even with Tupac. Everybody wasn't fucking with Tupac when he first came out when he was a hype man for digital underground.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Even Brendan got a baby and stuff like that was big. But when it took years from to go through so much. shit. Then he came to death row with all eyes on me and then shit just exploded. But it was all that groundwork that he put in and you got to understand, people ain't had social back then. They ain't had to appear. And he was killing shit in real time. When you had to
Starting point is 00:15:18 sell an album. So it was so much much more harder. Just imagine we had social media back then. He probably had sold 100 million records. Maybe. Or... Especially with his personality. Or, or depending on the circumstances could have folded which some people do, fold based off
Starting point is 00:15:34 feeling embarrassed, right? Because people are watching because people are watching them not be super successful right away. It's hard. Yeah, because it's embarrassing because you're overthinking. You will think that people is watching you and they're not even fucking watching you. And you'll be like, damn,
Starting point is 00:15:51 I'm looking stupid out here. Nobody even paying you a 10. Like a lot of times even with the secret stuff like you had, people had this imaginary hate, does imaginary people hate? We'd be having too much imaginary shit going on that's not really going on because people got bills they're paying. They weren't about real life shit. Why is somebody
Starting point is 00:16:06 worrying about you all the time. You know what I'm saying? And motherfuckers got to understand that the quick flip mentality is never going to lead you to long-term success. Because it's an unpatient mentality. Right.
Starting point is 00:16:16 You're unpatient and you're never going ahead of time and you might have some good shit. But you know, you'll plant the seed, pour water in at one time going to house. So as the sun come out, you're like, yeah, what's going on? You're not waiting, Dan. Let me wait for three more weeks. And it'd be that time, right when you,
Starting point is 00:16:32 right when it might be ready to pop or right when that opportunity that might become. When you tap out. You went to too many people And too many knows You know what I'm saying Like somebody I heard Somebody on Instagram say
Starting point is 00:16:41 That no mean next opportunity You know what I mean Shout out do I say that It said no mean next opportunity Like okay you shot me down But I'm gonna go go here Like I tell people Only thing you need in your life
Starting point is 00:16:54 Is about four or five yeses You need yes to the person That you want to be In love with you know what I'm saying Or whatever You need yes to that move to the ladder That person that's going to introduce you to the lab, but it put you in the game,
Starting point is 00:17:06 wherever it's radio, wherever it's fashion, wherever it's music, okay, this was the first person I connect with, he's the man that's the man that's gonna, and then, you know, a couple more,
Starting point is 00:17:12 and they set you for life. Right. All you need to think about it, like five of them, and you'll be set for life, whatever you're trying to do. So I think a lot of people got to just be patient
Starting point is 00:17:20 and get away from that quick flip mentality because you got to look at things. Don't think you could take one thing that's unorganized and turn it into something that's real, this is an unorganized world,
Starting point is 00:17:33 this is an unorganized world. you try to put it in the structure world. Sometimes you might get to take the grind there, but certain other things that right now, it just don't happen like that in real life. Right. So everybody out there understand, man, that quick flip mentality is never going to bring you long-term success, man.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Anything that's worth having. Haven't. You got to work for, and you got to work goddamn hard for it. You know what I'm saying? No matter how easy it look, we make shit look easy. But all the shit that go on behind the closed doors,
Starting point is 00:18:04 y'all would be amazed and y'all probably will respect us more if y'all you know i mean if you really knew like damn these niggas really put the work in this ain't no shit where it's just oh there's no there's not no fly by night shit they really put the work in so i want to talk about you know people being balanced you feel what i'm saying just keeping a balance you know what i'm saying saying and not letting success go to their head and not letting failure go to their heart you feel what I'm saying because a lot of people achieve success and then now you're like who is who is this nigga I don't who who is this motherfucker no you got to understand something you know what I'm saying something important that I did you say a lot of people I can't speak on different
Starting point is 00:18:56 places if I can speak on coming out the hood a lot of they grind be fueled by revenge. They be feud about people who shit it on me or they did me this way. So a lot of times people are just trying to get in position the shit on you. Right. They're not trying to, like and there's some people, they can't think about it. Some people can't even, like
Starting point is 00:19:14 some people, they just trying to get in position the shit on certain people. Like, hey, I think, I believe a lot of people got lists. I didn't run into people that got lists. And they told me, yeah, a motherfucker on my list. I'm like, what type of list you're talking about? Oh, yeah, that motherfucker's shit on me back three years ago, that motherfucker did this. And it'd be that mentality instead of having that,
Starting point is 00:19:30 think about it and that can fuck you up because your moves is based off revenge or your moves is based off a proving somebody wrong or your moves is based off proving somebody is it is everything is based off somebody else yeah so you can't think because it's emotional is he is emotion laced is laced with emotion so you know emotions cloud reaction so as you try to move you ain't thinking to court because your whole thing is I got a shit on the mirror right there damn yeah I'm shit on that motherfucker I'm doing but at the same time when you're emotionally laced you're not thinking clear to see you're missing on a lot of other shit because my whole goal in life is the shit on
Starting point is 00:20:03 you know what I mean people that they whole thing is they ain't been with somebody for two three years and they still trying to shit on their ex they still thinking about how they're going to flex on their ex. Wow that is something. Like I'm going to flex on my ex. Like at the end of the day I'm gonna get on there and flex on my ex fuck her. They're looking at their page all the time. You got people to just stalk
Starting point is 00:20:19 people pages and be like yeah I'm a shit on this motherfucker watch. So everything successful they got is more like hi look at me you see me now. I'm shana yeah what? Yeah bitch you left me you was unhappy but now look at me bitch now because it's like okay she she left you because she was unhappy because some people and just because you got a new car and you got some money that don't mean that's going to make a happy yeah because you got some people out here right
Starting point is 00:20:42 they just naturally at the end of the day some people naturally got that thing they got that star quality and they naturally the shit I'm talking about you could you could go see somebody man and they could be they could be in a rehab they could be in prison they could be down they could be jbm just barely making it and they just got this ooh this thing that o out of them where as though they just they pose to be somewhere else and you see it in them you see it in their confidence they attitude no matter where they had in life they just got this glow about them they just glowing and they always able to take shit to the next level so you'll be sitting there you'll be like damn and then you'll have a person that they never had that
Starting point is 00:21:15 they're not sure about themselves so they leave with things they try to they try to uh you know everything is about grabbing attention from grabbing things not from who they are because they really scared like a lot of people you got to stand a lot of people is high and When I say hiding this, a lot of people throw that, how can I say? They try to deflect shit all for them or who they really are because they think you see them a lot of times. They think like, damn, you can see that they don't feel good about themselves.
Starting point is 00:21:41 You can see that they're insecure or you can see that they think they ugly and all this other stuff. And it's like, yo, it ain't even that deep like because we'd be overthinking ourself and how we feel about ourselves no matter what. We wear that shit on our sleeves so people can see it because you wear it because it's your energy, you approach to life, the way you speak about things, the way you speak about others. Because a lot of times when you see people that's always speaking bad about people. Like you got people, we all know people probably in our life that do their whole life.
Starting point is 00:22:09 Friendships always go wrong. They never get along with people. There's always somebody else's problem. Them people that there's always somebody else problem, you got to understand, man. They got some shit going on in life that nobody, nothing, no position, nothing, nothing, nothing could change. No clothes, no money, no jury. That's just who they are. That's within them.
Starting point is 00:22:27 And a lot of times when motherfuckers, like he said, When success comes, if you was a greaseball, if you was just a hateful person, that success is going to amplify this shit. Because now you're like, yeah, fuck everybody. You know how many people with money that's rich? You know how many people with money that's miserable? I mean, that was crazy.
Starting point is 00:22:45 That was funny. Yeah, that's crazy. I mean, you know how many people with money that's just miserable and shit? Right. And because everybody thinks that it's going to ease all your problems. And you would think because they got money that they're not miserable. No, money going to pay your bills. Money going to pay your bills and get you access to a certain life
Starting point is 00:22:59 or whatever, but it's not, it ain't got nothing to do with what you're going on inside of you. Right. Money don't change was inside of it. It's funny. It's like they say money is like alcohol. It just brings out who you are. It makes you more yourself. Right. So if somebody like, if they get successful and they like they start acting crazy and like, oh no
Starting point is 00:23:15 they got a problem with everybody. Everybody got a problem with me. You're like, man, that's who you were. You were a paranoid, insecure person to begin with. Right? Right. So it's all about keeping balance man and not letting success go to your head and failure to go to your heart. because a lot of people
Starting point is 00:23:30 they fail and they weren't about all the shit that don't matter how this person they're looking at me how this person judging me what they think about me man
Starting point is 00:23:41 none of that shit don't matter they'll lose they'll get embarrassed and they'll lose their courage to be able to start try again and I'm going to tell you like this man if you show me 10 successful businessmen
Starting point is 00:23:53 I'm going to show you 10 businessmen that failed at something in life but they bounce back game notorious and glorious because they didn't lay down when they fell when they hit that speed bump they hit that pothole they got that flat tire all they did was change the tire and keep on fucking moving that's what life is about life is about keeping it moving keeping it moving progressing you feel me any anybody that come up with great ideas your idea is not always going work but it only need you only need that one idea to work you only need that one idea to work to

Starting point is 00:29:16 You can meet a million dollar relationship and just because he don't do what you want him to do in a, when you want him to do it in a timely matter, then niggas get to talk in, they get to run in their mouth and they, you know how many times this has happened where a motherfucker got a perfect relationship that can take them out of here. That can take them out of here. But they don't understand that God got them. See, that's the one thing you got to. understand god got you not him if he do something for you that's because god put it on his heart
Starting point is 00:29:53 to do that for you and maybe have a million dollar relationship sometimes god put the people in your life too right for you to there you can fuck it up yourself right and they can have a million dollar relationship right here and all all you got to do all it's going to do is take some time sometimes but they patience don't allow them to to let the whole race play out and a lot of niggas trip Right before the finish line, fall, squeaked their chin up, three other niggas
Starting point is 00:30:20 past the finish line before them, they don't get a gold, silver oil bronze. There's so many people out here that fuck up, million-dollar relationships for $2 conversation,
Starting point is 00:30:34 running their fucking mouth about nothing, getting in their feelings about nothing. Because at the end of the day, when you understand that don't nobody owe you, shit out here. That's what you
Starting point is 00:30:48 got to understand first. God got you and don't nobody owe your shit. Whatever he did to become a million dollar relationship, he put that work in for. You got to, sometimes
Starting point is 00:31:04 you got to prove to the nigger that can open the door for you that you were opening the fucking door for. Because you know how to get through the, you're going to put the work and to get through that door and you've got to understand something that's very important. When you move making a shaker, you always going to have, you always going to have people,
Starting point is 00:31:20 right? You always going to have people that... Hey, buddy. Hey, what is you doing, buddy? Hey, buddy. Come on, man. You're not going to bite you. No, but it's a mutt. Hey, buddy.
Starting point is 00:31:36 Hey, buddy. Come here, buddy. Look, we got the, yeah, we got, we got interrupted by the, by the, by the, uh, by the dog. Don't worry about it. I can kick pop in his ass so as we get off camera.
Starting point is 00:31:48 But my whole thing is like this. You got to understand. A lot of times, this is you understand. A lot of times it's like this. That relationship with that, how can I say?
Starting point is 00:32:02 With that person, when you're big, this is why it's so easy. Everybody is trying to jockey for position. So I want to tell people this. There's no such thing as a secret because everybody that you tell a secret
Starting point is 00:32:14 got somebody that they tell a secret. Yep. And they're going to tell somebody that they tell a secret. And the secret is no such thing as secrets. Right. So when you hate,
Starting point is 00:32:22 when you say some shit that's on some goofy shit about somebody, about whatever, you got to know, you got to understand something that's very important. What's very important is that
Starting point is 00:32:32 it's not a secret and it's going to get back to him. So be mindful who you speak about. Matter of fact, don't need to be mindful who you speak about. Don't say shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:41 Don't even say nothing. It's not going to help you. you think vending out to somebody that's speaking bad about somebody that's in position that you think oh you that isn't going to help you so the bottom line is just like listen this focus put your ground down and keep going make it happen like that right and understand that this man and life man 30% of life is about what you know man and the other 70% of life is about who you know absolutely i'm gonna say this one more time while o one met with whack 100 he was in town while o'all o'wai and kicked it with him.
Starting point is 00:33:15 They was just busting it up. He said, may I see y'all got the podcast, man, that shit crazy, man, blah, blah, blah, blah, like, yeah, we're in the midst. Shout out to Wack for that. Shout out to Wack 100, because Wack is a person that share information. You feel what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:33:26 Shout out to Charlemagne, the God. He's a person that shared information. Solid dude. You feel what I'm saying? You get some people in your life who understand that I don't want it all. And they see that you got a talent. They see that you got a talent.
Starting point is 00:33:42 they see that you capable of upgrading your brand and they pass the connects off to you or they give you information that you need because prime example while I'm talking to Wack I had some things I had to handle so Wack says man y'all y'all y'all heavy with the podcast shit man
Starting point is 00:34:02 yeah we're about to take this shit to the different level we're talking to such and such such such such such Wax say why you ain't talking to Spotify Gilly brother over at Spotify shahazoola Shakazulu We had no idea Shokazulu was over at Spotify
Starting point is 00:34:16 You feel what I'm saying So we like what? For real One phone call Shock pick right up He said I already was on it I already was on it He was like already was on it
Starting point is 00:34:27 I was gonna call y'all So in life And granted we didn't end up signing With Spotify But there was another door That opened us up And when we didn't sign with Spotify That's because that's what we chose
Starting point is 00:34:38 Not to do You feel what I'm saying So at the end of the end of the day is like in your relationships man if we didn't have a relationship with whack we would have never found that out
Starting point is 00:34:52 if if we have a relationship with other people we might have never made at the bar stool relationships is everything and stay away from people that always fucking relationships up because you if day into day and you're fucking what them people going to look at you the same absolutely
Starting point is 00:35:09 you see what I'm saying absolutely but I'm telling you Now, there's a difference between fucking relationships up and standing on something that you believe in and something that you value. Don't never disregard your beliefs and your value for just because a motherfucker's in position and could do something for you. Now, I'm not going to never compromise my beliefs
Starting point is 00:35:31 and my values and my worth for no fucking body. Because at the end of the day, I understand God got me. not not you nigger god got me and if it was something that you didn't want to do for me and god wanted you to do it you're going to do it nigger and if not it's going to bring someone else in a picture who's going to do exactly what you need absolutely absolutely so always remember man relationships is one of the most important things in life and just in general to being successful to being happy. You feel what I'm saying?

Okay, let's get into, what's the top five sportswear and hip hop? The baseball cat. I'm just going to say, I'm just going to say, number one by far, I believe, is the Yankees.
Starting point is 00:38:34 hat. I think that's I think number one top sportswear in hip hop of all time. And I got to give Jay Z that credit. I think Jay Z made the Yankee hat. What about the Chicago White Sox hat? They was wearing that since back in the day.
Starting point is 00:38:51 NWA. But I mean, if that's the case in like Raiders head, L.A. If it's like black color way. They was wearing that. Yeah. It was wearing all that shit. I think Jay Z might have superseded The, that Navy Blue Yankee hat. You had people wearing a Detroit, Detroit hat.
Starting point is 00:39:11 You have I mean, so you got, you got, I know, I know the Yankees hat is in there. The Yankees head is in there. Jordans. Absolutely. Oh, you're talking about just all the means. Sportswear. Oh, yeah, so Jordans. The top sportswear and hip-hop.
Starting point is 00:39:26 Where Jordan's like the first, like, when basic ball sneakers really started getting wearing on the street, I think so. Yeah, yeah. So you're going to say the Yankees hat, Jordans. Definitely throwback jerseys. Like since I go with, Fife Dog from Tribe and Big Boy from Outcast. You had jerseys period. Jersey's period, right.
Starting point is 00:39:45 Jersey's period. You had people wearing all type of football, baseball, hockey. Yeah, hockey jerseys. They was wearing all type of stuff. And they still wearing them to this day. They still wearing them. They don't wear them as much, but they still wearing them. I just seen Leif Ward in his video.
Starting point is 00:39:57 He had the hockey jersey on. All right, but listen, I'm going to say this. You can say jerseys, right? which is all kind but it's like it's certain things like if you say the Yankees hat
Starting point is 00:40:07 you can say jerseys L.A. Dodgers hat it's a lot you know what I mean because you know you have I say from a West Coast standpoint
Starting point is 00:40:15 Chucks yeah and Chucks used to be basketball sneets but definitely that's like part of the uniform Chuck is a uniform Chuck's a nigga
Starting point is 00:40:24 you used to wear Chucks religiously I still got something to cut every day damn near back in the day I play basketball on the Chucks well if that's the case
Starting point is 00:40:31 in sportswear, wouldn't Vans be considered sportswear for like skating? I don't think Vans. Not so much. I don't think Vance is in there. I'm talking about since back in the day. I definitely got to put that Philly's hat in there. In the Top 5?
Starting point is 00:40:44 Yes. That Phillies Pee? Niggas you crazy? Yes. Everybody rocked that Phillies Pee. Listen, they did. Listen, what I said. I said, listen, I said the White Sox hat.
Starting point is 00:40:55 That's in there. That's way, listen, the White Sox hat. No, but before the White Sox hat, the Raiders had. All right, so you're going to say the Yankees, L.A. Dodgers, that's major. L.A. Dodgers is major. It is. That blue, that nipsy blue. Listen, that Chicago White Sox hat, Atlanta Braves hat.
Starting point is 00:41:19 Oh, Atlanta Braves hat. Houston Astros. No, before the Houston Astros, I think the Oakland Athletics was more, you know what I mean, the Oakland A hat. I don't know. I remember the Oakland A hat. hat, but it was green. I don't think everybody was rocking that black Raiders hat. Everybody was rocking that
Starting point is 00:41:37 blue Yankees hat. You know what I'm saying? The White Sox. Chicago White Sharks. Jersey's. Because jerseys has always been big, you know, representing, you know, whoever popping in the sports world, because it's almost like music. Hold, don't forget ball shorts. It's almost like music. It's like music and sports just is
Starting point is 00:41:58 hand in hand with each other. You feel what I'm saying is like it's just and it's like what represents where you from like like like the New York head got the N.Y L.A. head got the L.A. and L.A. and L.A. and L.A. It's like it seemed like the jerseys is coming back. They are. Oh yeah. They're coming back strong now. You know what I mean? Me and Gil got got a got a bunch of them already. You know what I mean? But it's like it just seemed like the jerseys is coming back like hard like to where as though it's going to be, it's ready to be crazy. Yeah because they like at the colorways they people want what they like whole leg sneakers. I think the number one sports gear of all.
Starting point is 00:42:31 time in hip-hop is the Yankees hat. And I say that because I say Jay-Z probably is the biggest artist. Right? He made that Yankees hat popular, man. That is true. I'm going to keep it all the way where I bought one. I'm from Philly. I had a Yankees hat.
Starting point is 00:42:48 What part of New York you thought you was from? I didn't think I'd never thought I was from Brooklyn. You think that's Brooklyn? No, fuck I didn't. Get out of it. Fuck out of it. Bebebebe! I did like these slings, though. Don Quine, Brug. Everybody from Brooklyn, fat, the whole Brooklyn. Shout out to Brooklyn. But, um,
Starting point is 00:43:05 Starter Jack is back in the day, too. Yeah, Starter Jacks, but the young cats, they probably don't understand. They was, like, shiny, and they had the team logo on there. Yeah. Whatever your team was, you had them, yeah, they definitely was that.
Starting point is 00:43:16 And they had a team colors. Team colors. And it was certain teams you only wanted for the colors. Yeah. And I've seen something where ASAT, Rocky, say he made Air Force One's famous. And Nellie really had a problem with that.
Starting point is 00:43:30 but even but even if we keeping it real they was popular before nelly and um did a song about but but they blew them up but when nelly did it they went up 400 because nobody even thought about doing a song like that you had it's only it was only a couple songs hip-hop sneaker songs you had my deed is by run dmc right you had nelly had a join and then what's name had a jam but but it was more like he had a song called uh little scrap he had a song called forever i love Atlanta, basically Phyllis. The worst name had a song called Adida. All Day I Dream, but it was really about all day I dream about sex.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Dream about sex. I think it was Killer Mike and a big boy, something like that. Yeah. But it was like, that is true. Because it's like once they did the song, then it was like whether you had some forces or not, you had to get some A1s. You had to. At a point in time, the designer shit started taking the sports shit out.
Starting point is 00:44:22 Yeah. You know what I'm saying? But I think with the new generation, they, they wasn't really with so much rocking jerseys and you know like we was in our generation I think it was more about the big sneaks and you know this generation and you know the Gucci scarves we do it go next though we do it go next because I'm not saying anybody but financially shit is going to change in a minute so we do I think I think I think I think that's why I keep saying I think it's going to go back to the jersey because the jersey says it's simplistic you got to stand dudes walking around
Starting point is 00:44:52 in a rap game and we never seen it rap game used to be like you could wear whatever you can wear it. Right. A person has some baggy jeans on, some army, some, uh, army fatigue pants on, some regular ball sneaks on a regular shirt or something like, it was just so regular now and it's like, you, you know, to be a rapper, like, hold up, do uniform really matter? Do the uniform matter? Yeah, I think the uniform matter. Because it's a part of your vibe, your look. Do it matter. I'm talking of that high designer shit and all that. Do it, do, do, do the way you rap matter the style of clothes you wear, like, like, if you're not rapping about If you're not rap about a bunch of money, a bunch of shit,
Starting point is 00:45:27 can you just rock regular? Yeah, you can. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. So the regular. Because it's all about an image. You feel it's all about the image that you're putting out there. You feel what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:45:35 Some people don't have no image. Some people is like, I'm just me. You feel what I'm saying? And then some people got, like the Migos, they cannot just be wearing some regular shit. Yeah. Like a little baby, you know. Right.
Starting point is 00:45:46 Like they, because they talk about that's like a part of who they are in their songs. They talk about, you know, the designer shit. You know, they talk about being flawed. They talk about having the best cars. They talk about having the brightest ice. They talk about so they got to have that uniform. But it seemed like to me... Whereas Talib Khalid didn't have to have that uniform.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Common Sense. Kendrick Lamar don't have to. Jay Cole don't have to. The biggest rappers of all time, like some of the biggest and the greatest known rappers from the NWA's to the Kendrick Lamar's. A lot of rappers, it seemed like some of the biggest ones of the Dr. Dre's, the 50 cents. All them dudes that came to Emily. numbs they didn't wear that shit right but but then you look at the big ones like the jZ when he was
Starting point is 00:46:31 always everything iceberg and biggie cooled you down to the socks you know what i mean it's it's it could be a whole like they're like they were rapping about their lifestyle so right was too biggie big he had to you know i mean black and ugly however i steak minks him talking shit he was talking that shit but teupac look at teupac teupac tupac had some regular shit on yeah because he did was a had a warriors mentality i don't really get fuck about that. He's from West Coast. He's not from West Coast.
Starting point is 00:46:58 He's from Brooklyn. I'm just saying he's from New York. He's in New York, Baltimore. He's able to do his thing over there, but I'm going to say this like, West Coast rappers, the motherfuckin' them was at the top of the game wearing chucks and fucking dickies. Roll talk. But then Snoop and them also had a gangster that was their thing.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Yeah. And you know what it is. Let me ask you something. I'm asking both of you all this question. Why is it that when it comes to, a black designer a lot of times our stuff is not
Starting point is 00:47:28 by us is looked downed upon and it's not highlighted like we highlight the European designers like you know what I mean think about you had people that you had whole teams that kill shit
Starting point is 00:47:37 like no limit yeah they kill shit with Fubu on right yeah dude they wasn't playing they supported Fubu like crazy which was a great thing
Starting point is 00:47:44 but we don't support like black people don't support black brands black fashion brands they look at them like oh that's just some you know because
Starting point is 00:47:52 they did classify the street wearing to the point but when we get classified as street wear it's not classified as the like the superior street where like luxury and all that like you're not going to see too many black
Starting point is 00:48:02 designers who get you know Virgil Ablo he went to go design for a big fashion house but I mean off white is his company and that's still seen as you know what I mean? Fear of God Jerry Lorenzo's company but you're not still but I know what you mean though the average person people look down like ah
Starting point is 00:48:18 they're not really they're rather where and even where a street wear thing you got companies like Supreme and all of them And it's like, yeah, I wear that, but I ain't going to wear the street wear it from down the dude to do the gear at Harlem. The girl that do the stuff in North Philly, my man that hooked stuff up in Bankhead. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:34 So I'm saying, we got to start. Well, I think, I think hip-hop, the culture, they got to really start powering the culture. You know, you've got a lot of people that were in Milano. Yeah, you got a lot of people. You write about that. There's a lot of people that wear Milano. It's all about how you walk your brand out.
Starting point is 00:48:50 Yeah. She walked her brand out like it's classy. Like it's doing something Same thing with a bellow Right same thing with the fellow So it's people that support them But you gotta have your shit together Yeah but I feel you as far as those price points
Starting point is 00:49:04 People will they worship Fendi and everything Where it could be a t-shirt and they're like I'm gonna get that And you're like well what makes this more better than this? And it's all about like trying to wear your wealth You know what I mean? Just like oh well people might If they're not from not just Philly Because a lot of everybody knows Milano right
Starting point is 00:49:21 But they say, if I go overseas, people might not know this Milano T-shirt. Oh, but they know this Gucci and they know how much it costs. And I think it's like sometimes as black people. You're paying for a movement, right? Yeah. Because like Damon John, I had Damon John one time we was in the car and he did a video for somebody. He was just telling anybody like, yo, we get all our garments from the same place. It's just different movements for the garment.
Starting point is 00:49:41 We take the tag up and sew our tags in. Sometimes we get to be ordered them from the place tag list because I didn't go in front. I remember one time it was like a champion hoodie. and I put it right up next. I'm talking about the Dick Quality Champion and I put it right next to the Gucci Yiddly and it was the exact same hood. The exact same field.
Starting point is 00:49:58 When you turn it inside out, people didn't know the difference. So what I'm saying is like a lot of times we got to empower. Like a lot of times we always talking about oh, we ain't got this, we ain't got this, we ain't got that, we ain't got that. It ain't that we ain't got the money to spend
Starting point is 00:50:10 on certain shit is our choice when it comes to spending. Yes. So a lot of times we got to just look at these, like you can really feel like if an artist where somebody, because me, I'm going to say, I'm guilty of it. I'm the one that wore
Starting point is 00:50:23 I'm talking about I probably wore over 100 different people clothing and my videos tagged them all that type on a strength. I'm talking about different times because I understand the power of if an artist take a local person and they wear their stuff one time and tag them or put, that could change
Starting point is 00:50:38 their whole fucking life. A co-sign from a really big notable person could change somebody's career. And I challenge all artists out there, right? Recording artists, find somebody in your city your town, throw their stuff on and tag them. because a lot of a lot of a lot of a lot of a lot of people is looking at you and just that just one time I ain't saying you got to keep doing it but find somebody that you see that
Starting point is 00:50:59 really need to help you something saying and make sure like make sure when you send somebody your stuff that you can you can handle the demand if it jump off because a lot of time I don't post up with people but then but wait here's the thing no there's a thing of like limited like limited additions where people is like little limited amounts that like if you can't get it then it turns into this whole other you know resale market because most things are only hot because we agree that they are, right? So it's time for us to start agreeing about our entrepreneurs
Starting point is 00:51:25 and our labels, especially when we see designers copy and bigger designers copy and they work all the time. Absolutely. All the time.

Starting point is 00:54:19 is different because everybody see life differently but I'm just real transparent and emotional about it. I remember there was some real stuff
Starting point is 00:54:27 the first time I cried when I was in a cell right? And it was like I'd never forget When you found out your woman was getting dick down?
Starting point is 00:54:34 No, it wasn't that. Oh, what? It was just, it was crying because it was like I finally made it to the big house. I was in
Starting point is 00:54:43 you know, greatest for it and it's, you know, in a juvenile was juvenile, we're not really juvenile outside. It was really in, what you call it? Oh, no, let me, it was like protective custody
Starting point is 00:54:54 because I was underage and I went to the penitentiary and they can't put you out in the population with everybody else because you're not 18 yet. I had a cellion there, and it was the middle of the night, man. And I just was like, I held the pillow to my face and I was crying because it was like, damn, this is going to be a long journey. And I got myself in some shit.
Starting point is 00:55:13 And I'm like, damn, I ain't know what's going to be like that. And it was painful because you couldn't do nothing about it it was like they already sentenced you you can't come back and it's just like i and i had the moments most a lot of times doing my bit because it because it was like a release it was release of pain it was release of damn i got this much more time to go damn felt better after you cry fuck yeah i felt better it was like a release you know you splash your face for water but it was like you had to let it out because you be holding this pain because you know when you go to jail and you come down as you get that time in the courtroom you got to be tough you
Starting point is 00:55:47 got a whole face. You got to tell you like, man, that shit ain't about nothing. I could do that. Yeah. Because we come from a tough environment and that shit be like, you'd be so detached from the reality and you'd be detached from the way you feel in your emotions to the point where it's, though, it'd be like, man, fuck it, but it'd be like them times when you just can't front no more. And you've got to release all this, this front you put up.
Starting point is 00:56:06 It's like releasing the front. Releasing all the, because every time the blows hit you and they said, and they was like, oh man, they said, gave you the time or something went wrong. You'd be like, man, that's shayn't about nothing. You keep talking about it ain't about nothing like you just you know because I felt it's thought it was a time machine yeah because I've been doing time my whole life so it'll be it'd be like damn man it just be like damn man I let that shit go on myself sometime in the middle of the night and you know it's it's a join
Starting point is 00:56:30 I read I think it's a book called men cry in the dark that's shit real that's shit real and it's but at the same time it was soothing and it was just a release and it would refresh my whole battery and I'd be able to start for the blows I had to take coming from the different letdowns in life that comes apart with incarceration.
