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
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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,
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.
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.
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,
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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
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
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,
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
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.
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,
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
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
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,
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,
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
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,
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.
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,
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
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
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,
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
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
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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
change your life. You feel what I'm saying?
So just keep the balance, man.
Never get too high on the wind, never
get too low on the loss.
That's what it's all about. It's about
keeping balance. Prime example.
We signed a bar stool. I look at the most money he ever had in his life.
But he still rock a deed of sweatpants every day.
He ain't go out and say, oh, I'm about
to go buy Versace's shit, and he can afford it.
He can afford it. He can afford it. He ain't
say, I'm about to go by Vasachi shit. I'm about to
get a Lamborghini.
I'm about to get 10 pairs of
Ja Vinci sneakers. I ain't about to get
all types of goddamn
Valenciaga sweaters.
And no, he's still the same
person because he's able to
maintain his balance.
That shit don't make me a break me. I just want to
wake up every day, have a good meal. I'm happy to be
free. Right. That's it. All that other shit,
that shit don't mean that. Right. So. And a side
note is Jivanchi.
It rhymes with Ronchi. Like Jivanchi.
Yeah.
Oh, I thought it was Javanchi.
I got a couple pairs of
Javanchi sneaks, but
Javanchi, I guess.
I guess
so is it
Louis Vuitton or is it Louis Vuitton?
It's Louis Vuitton.
Because I heard Kanye say Lewis

Let's get into a million dollars worth of a game, right?
I just want to tell all the young kids out here, right?
Your relationships is everything.
Whatever you're trying to do in life,
relationships is everything man understand that so even in even in just regular life oh yo hey bro
how you got their job oh no my aunt my aunt had worked down there at the so she got me in
no my cousin that knew some boy and he got me in relationships is everything in life man
and you got a lot of people out here that don't value relationships you you can meet it you
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
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
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,
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
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
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,
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.
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.
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?
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
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,
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
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.
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.
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?
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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?
You know, all of those things.
Relationships is extremely important, man.

Yeah. 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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?
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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,
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?
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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
and our labels, especially when
we see designers copy and bigger designers copy
and they work all the time.
Absolutely. All the time. You will see some shit that you, like
you got people that, I really believe you got people
that be in the streets of New York, that be in the streets
to the Phillies, the L.A., Atlanta, the Houston's,
the Chicago's, Detroit's, all these
towns, right? And they just be
peeping swag, and they go, these
people go design stuff, and then you'd be like,
they got it on the runway I've just seen that down
Harlem yeah right
I just seen somebody in Harlem that dress like this
they took that person whole style
and created a line off that shit or even fast fashion
there's a lot of local designers um I saw like
Britney DeShields she had a dress like two weeks later
fashion overheaded yeah they like straight
we'll just rip the design so it's this time for us
to agree that like our designers are just as
I guess like this is not even just as good
because it's not even that it's just as valuable to us
as you know what I mean
that's why people slept on dapper day
and now it's like this big movement
because Gucci gave him a cosign right
or Gucci said let's mend it
but it's like did we really need
yeah did we really need them to finally say
listen we always look for this is what we always look for
we always look for a cosine
out of the culture for us to listen to
and say they the shit
what we got to start doing this
we got to jump on shit
before everybody else
outside the culture or somebody big in the culture
says it shit if you feel it
jump on that shit
Like if you feel it rock it
Wear that shit
You see what I'm saying
Like and show some support
Because you don't know
I didn't I didn't it was
It was
Brother sent me a shirt one time
Called
And Gil,
Gil knows this
Called streets don't love you
The streets don't love you
So I never forget
This conversation I had
With this brother
I wore it on the corner
And I was talking about it
He hit me in the DM
It was like
Can I can I talk to you
I called him
Man the brother was on
He'd from down Tampa Florida
The brother was basically crying
Because it was like
Yo shit was tight
bro I didn't even have
I was trying to figure out things
for me and my son and my kids
and boom boom boom boom bang
I was trying to figure it out
that shit changed his
like this dude now I see his shirts
everywhere
and I was so happy that I was a part of
you know igniting his fire
and you know his whole brand
and be able to because he said I only got a couple shirts
man I'm gonna print some more
I'm gonna see you some more can you wear some more
I said yeah can you get Gil
I said yeah man
then he just was saying something
I got something for freeway
I get free the shirts I get
and then I just start seeing all
athletes, rappers.
I'm like, yo, man.
And I feel good
every time I see him
come down my timeline
because I know all I did
was just wear it, man,
and do a video.
And everybody's like,
I want that shirt.
The streets don't love you.
And it was like,
that's, so it ain't hard, man,
and it's dope.
So let's get into stories from the cell.
Stories from the cell.
Now, now one thing about stories
from the cell is like,
I'm going to say that again.
Stories from the cell.
One thing about stories from the cell
is I'm going to tell you some moments, right?
And I try to tell people
about my journey.
Everybody else's journey
is different
because everybody
see life differently
but I'm just real
transparent and emotional
about it.
I remember there was
some real stuff
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?
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
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
What else been doing the dark?
What?
I don't know what you're doing in the dark.
No, I'm just asking you used up.
What is you doing the dark?
No, I ain't do nothing in the dark.
Well, don't ask me nothing about the dark.
You just, it was deep.
Men do things in the dark.
It was deep.
No, man, I just want to share that with y'all, man.
It's deep.
And listen, I was locked up, too.
I ain't going to lie.
I was only locked up for 10 days, though, and I cried.
My woman was locked up across the street.
Two was locked up right across the street.
Somebody tried you when you was in the joint.
I don't stop fucking playing with me, man
No, why you got to be so tough
Like nobody would try me
What you did? What would have done it?
You're like, they might not have been successful
But did they try?
What would you do if somebody try you?
How would you handle it?
If I came and said, hey, how are you doing, man?

And I just sitting there like, you know what I mean?
Sazzy you up?
Yeah, man, this dude, ain't that strong.
Like, rash of this nigga down.
Like, what would you do if somebody's done that?
Like, how would you feel, though?

So you would have walked to the cell
And be like, all right?
