you know making a mixed cocktail drinks with the girlfriends and partying it up and doing it real
big off to that new amsterdam so new hampshire damca that's what it is now we got gaudy in the building
real nigger
real boss
and I like to say like
pure
pure
I think the term
real nigger
is like
pure
it's like
I think it's used
in vain too much
okay
you'm saying
like what makes you real
what makes them ever real
and what people think
makes them real
I like I like to say
like a nigger pure
because
I'm pure to myself
and I'm like
I ain't never like
gonna move funny
for beneficial reasons
or
so it's just
just pure to who I am. I think there's better
than real. I could vouch for that.
Superior nigger right here.
My first dealings
with this man
right here. First, first, the way you, the story
come about it, I called you from prison.
And I said, yo,
boy, you, yo, Gotti.
What's up with that, nigga, man? I see him shit all
around in the magazines and you know him.
And you told me a story.
He's a real nigga.
A pure nigger.
A solid one.
This was so long ago
Goddy was getting $25,000 for a verse.
I called him, reached out to him.
I said, Godd, I need you on the song.
He said, I'm charging $25, Gilly.
I said, how much you want?
He said, just give me 10 piece, Gilly.
I fucks with you.
I said, all right, bet.
He said, send me the record.
I sent him the record.
He called me back and said,
Gilly, this shit hot, I'm going to do this shit for free.
I always respected that.
I always, to me, you was always solid for that.
Because at the end of the day, you had the money on the table,
but you showed me that it wasn't even about the money.
The record, how'd I fuck with a nigga?
I ain't even fuck the money.
I got money.
Yeah, it ain't always about the money all the time.
I got money.
Really when you're in the same game.
I think a lot of the young niggins need to understand that,
and like, you know, relationships and shit like that is way more important than money.
Money comes and go.
You're going to spend this shit quick as you make it, you know what I'm saying?
the right relationship lasts forever.
Thank you.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, needs to make your money
with each other over 10, 15, 20 years
or you may get money
with a nigga in one day.
You know what I'm saying?
Mm-hmm.
Now, 1996,
this is when you was little yo.
Young and on the come up.
You know, Memphis,
Ridgecrest,
projects.
You ever thought you would be here?
Nah, I ain't on the last, I said, like, I thought I'd be, like, exactly where I'm at the day, you know what I'm going to have some money.
You know, and it's like, what I was going to have it, the right way or the wrong way, I'm just one of them niggas that's supposed to be lit.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm supposed to have this shit on.
I'm supposed to have money.
I'm supposed to be moving in a certain type of rooms.
Now, rather them rooms is the rooms are moving in the day, I can't say I'm supposed.
saw that, but them ones probably would have been
this to the street. You know what I'm
saying? Whoever them players were
would be in the street, I'd be in the same
clubs or the same buildings. They were being
at, that's how I saw it back then, you know what
I'm saying? I ain't know I'd be
like, you know, in the Hamptons
with Michael Rubin and
Jay and the crafts, you know what I'm
saying? Like, I ain't think that. You know,
I thought I was just, but I knew I'd be one of the guys
who would get into the paper.
When I speak about you,
I'll know, I'm always on some
music shit
and I'm always on some like
CEOs of the game
that came from the culture
fucking them up
when I'm thinking about Tony Draper
when I'm thinking about Jay Prince
when I'm thinking about Baby
Slim when I'm thinking about Shug
when I'm thinking about
when I'm talking about D-O-Y
I'm thinking about all the people that came
I always give you props
because it would fucks me up in this day and time
it's so hard for artists to come through
and have enough heart
I'm talking about
have enough heart to
execute in the way you execute.
You execute an unbelievable
like your choice, your choice game.
Like, I don't know who you, you know,
this shit like Yankees, like you got a mean general manager
or some shit, man.
Because the way you pick these artists
and the way you put people on in this day and time,
you don't see that shit like that.
An artist of your, you know, caliber just executing
and putting a team together.
I'm talking about the solid players.
This ain't, you ain't, this ain't no bullshit.
This ain't no fluff around.
you know, wherever it's Black Boy,
everybody that you came through with,
these motherfuckers was, they was hitting shit out the park.
So it's like, it's just so great to see that in this time,
that execution, and just that, you know,
me personally, the black CEO.
I love that shit.
I love to see somebody that's come from us
that's just putting plays together
because a lot of times they go, you know,
you know how the game go, they get snashed up.
They go to the majors.
They get snashed up in a different way,
and they don't have nobody to groom them
because a lot of these artists that you have,
I've seen the growth in development.
I seen that shit.
It wasn't just like they just gripped them
and they were just from the rip.
I seen the growth.
I see that.
I seen money back go up.
I seen blank.
I said, do his thing.
I'm seeing four or two.
You see that shit.
So it just be like, you know,
I got to definitely get your flowers on that
because you listen,
at the end of the day,
you're going to stand with who I mentioned.
And it's not about the records that were sold
or the money that was made.
It was about putting a real live championship team together.
You're in the fucking books.
Y'all won the chip already.
We ain't going to get that fucked up.
The peas are coaching, everybody.
I give all them shoutouts.
But it's like all of y'all,
y'all stand in the class of extraordinary motherfuckers
that put on engaged dudes' chances.
Like, you may cast millionaires out here, man.
A lot of us can't say that.
You really made millionaires.
And I'm going to keep it all we real.
It's even more deeper from his standpoint
because he was an artist.
A lot of motherfuckers ain't an artist,
so they don't have that ego to push to the side.
when you are artists you got to push your own ego to the side because let's be for real
most of the artists that have artists it'd be like oh I'm gonna put three million marketing
in my shit but I'm gonna put 800,000 into your shit I'm a no it takes for real it's true
story it take for a real motherfucker to be like I'm gonna get you the same chance to win
that I get myself I'm gonna get you more you feel what I'm saying I'm gonna give you more
because you know there's no cap you know what I'm saying but I look there artists and say I think
you're going to go farther than me.
So we're going to get you more than what we gave me.
You know what I'm saying?
Because you really got this shot.
You really got this shot to play on another level.
So I'm going to make sure you have all the resources.
And there may be more resources than I even had.
You know what I'm saying?
And that's because I'm a hustler, though.
You know what I'm a hustling?
I'm a business man.
I'm an entrepreneur.
You know, when they come to money and when you speak of ego,
what is ego for real?
What is ego?
You want the badest bitch?
You want the best car.
You want the most dreary.
Like, I ain't never had their problem.
Like, I don't care nothing about this shit.
Mm-hmm.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, you know how many?
Chains I heard.
You know what I mean?
The car's I heard.
How much money they print any day?
I think people with ego, to me, it's like an insecurity issue.
Absolutely.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, why as you worry about who's going to have the most, really in super, in the super problem if you worry about it inside the house?
Mm-hmm.
You know what I mean?
Like, you're my brother.
Like, you think I want you to, like, if you might.
I shouldn't be calling you my brother if I feel like you can't have as much as me or more than me.
You ain't really my brother for real.
I'm really slick.
Hey.
You know what I'm saying?
If I don't feel that way, it's a slick, you know what I'm saying?
Like I said, I want to raise like that.
You know, I was lucky to have like the OGs around me.
When I was a young guy coming up, they weren't like that.
You know what I'm saying?
Everybody put their life on the line together.
Everybody wouldn't get the bag together.
You know what I'm saying?
I never know, like, you know,
I reach my life, but you can't.
Everybody went together every time.
You know what I'm saying?
So that's the way I was all.

When you click the radio icon,
what are you waiting for, 1-800 flowers?
That's the way I was told.
But going back, how you started the conversation
with the draples and the birds and slims
and J. Prince, I studied everybody.
You know what I'm saying?
Like the D-N-M, it ain't nobody
that's been in his position.
that I ain't studied their story.
I ain't studied their moves.
I studied everything about everybody.
So, you know, and I learned a lot from them, not even the people that, of course,
you know, my relationship were buried and slim and Jay and, you know, so a lot of these,
like them I get to learn, like, you know, face to face and direct.
But even the ones that I don't know like that, I don't know personally, I still, if they put out a book,
if they put out a documentary, I watched it, I studied, I read up on them.
because I want to know, you know,
what was their moment in them
that they was able to see to do the success they had
and what was they fuck up?
You know what I mean?
So I don't run into the same issue.
Absolutely.
You feel I mean?
So, for me, one of those things,
and, you know, this is not saying nobody in particular,
I'm just saying in the business,
you know, one of my thing was always was
I don't never want to have no money issues.
You know what I'm saying?
Anybody who fuck with me,
everybody's going to make money.
everybody going to get with their old we ain't never taken from nobody ever under no circumstances
we'll give you more than you deserve before we give you less
it was always the number one thing that we when I started to be a CMG that we're going to be the shit
and that be the real fallout behind a lot of record labels man is that you know when you first
coming in the game a lot of motherfuckers get it stuck to them you know what I'm saying and then
you know you'd be you be at a vulnerable position because you ain't got shit but talent
that's all you got
so you be in a vulnerable position
because when you ain't got shit a little bit
sound like more than what you got
and a lot of artists get in the game
and then as they
you know they might get whatever type of deal
they got as they growing as they're growing
they start to realize that damn
I don't even know how much money out of me
directly but I think
I think that's a catch 22 though
it is right because it's like it all a risk
and it's all gambling and if you come from the street
right if you come from the street right
if you come from the street, it's like saying
I get a sack in the street
and then I know what come with this shit
you know, the police come with this shit.
Niggas trying to rob you come with this shit.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
You know what I'm saying?
So it's all this, it's the game, right?
So if I get caught up by the police,
what the fuck I'm crying for?
I knew this shit came with the game.
If I get robbed, what I'm crying for going to handle your business
that will come with this shit, you know what I mean?
So I think it's a, it's a, um,
it's a um i think you gotta look at it i think a lot of people speak on it from what you were just saying
from one side of the story right because it's easy for an artist to run around and say oh a nigga
fuck me or i got or i don't know what i you know what i'm saying but but also you got to think
about what if niggas how many how many labels lost on niggas oh they lose more than they win
you know saying like everybody talk about how much the labels make how much the labels lost yeah because
you like you say you got you got a hundred motherfuckers that never they never come to light that they gave
Yeah, they put millions of dollars in these dreams every day.
They go nowhere.
And I don't see nobody saying, like, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, nobody's talking about that.
Oh, how much is it?
Yeah.
You feel me?
So it's like, I'm just saying that like,
there ain't no artists ever said they put investors three million a bit like sell shit.
Yeah, like, you know.
How much I owe you y'all?
We are sending this check back to you.
They let you get there.
They release you.
They release you and they take the L.
And I'm, and I'm pro artist.
I'm just saying that because, you know, it's me.
not worth a game my shit called free game yes and I feel like I'm the one they're like
because I see a lot of shit being said and I feel like a lot of time you're like damn they don't
speak on another side though it's just like glorifying the streets but never talking about the
consequences like I see a lot of their talk but nobody talk about how much money it takes
you know it's the same thing of you know artists want to be independent you know they
praise being independent and then or not being independent and they made it this thing where
or you're more superior or bossed up or some shit
if you're independent.
I don't believe that shit.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't believe that because what does independent mean?
Like one most motherfuckers that want to be independent
ain't got the money to be independent.
And even if you had it, nigga, you wouldn't spend your own money.
Right.
You don't want to spend your own money.
If you had one million dollars,
you wouldn't go spend $950,000 on your own rap career.
You'll go by calls.
You'll go by chains.
You wouldn't spend that $950,000.
thousand of your million
on studio time
marketing ideas and shit
like that. So you damn sure ain't finished
spending on another motherfucker you go sign an artist
because you went spending on yourself
but some of these same people
that are moved like that
they're independent
campaigners. Oh yeah, I'm independent
or I got to be independent. So I just think it's like
you know
I'm one of them niggas that like
whatever fits you
it fits you but I always know both
sides don't understand and respect the game and respect both sides you know what
saying you can't just be like saying shit saying shit just to be saying it because
somebody else has said it and somebody else is said and this seemed like the
movement you know what I'm saying let me ask you a question because you said something
important because to a lot of artists and I need to get your opinion because you
expertise of this because you you won a lot of artists think investing in
themselves is the chain of watch and the whip they think that's investing they don't the
digital marketing, the promote, they don't, so what is investing in yourself and how much money
do it take? If I'm Johnny, if I'm Johnny Donut and I come get with CMG today and you sign me,
I'm from North Philly. I've read, you heard me, I'm popping. How much money do it take to get me
popping and get me out here? A lot. I'm going to put it like this a lot because I don't think
we have, I know it's not at CMG. We don't have a number, right? We don't have a number that we say
it caused this much to break every artist
because everybody's different.
Everybody's going to need something different.
Like, you know, artist A may need something different
than artist B and C.
So you can't really say so.
With us, you may have heard me say this term before
that we're not infest us, we believe us.
I said this a couple times,
and I said it to say that if we sang you,
that's because we believe in you.
If we believe in you, we'll spend it all
until we get you there.
Okay.
Or until we ran out the paper.
because we believe in this shit
you know what I'm saying like so we don't
it ain't up to a certain number to us
we're gonna we're gonna believe in you up to
five million and if
if it don't do it in a five million we ain't fucking with you
no more that ain't how we move
you know what I'm saying so if we believe
in you we believe it like okay that shit didn't
work we up to five million and this shit
and connect you gotta go back to the drum board
you know what I just keep going and that's
the thing about being a believer versus
an investor but to answer your question
how much money it takes bro it take a lot of
fucking money to like you know
and even more time to break
these artists it matter how you
how often is the artist in the studio how much is the studio
studio I know the studio
we go to 1500, 1800 a day
engineer 700 a day there's
2,200 a day but studio time
artists in the studio every day
everybody in the studio every day
you know what I'm saying so
I don't know
artists flying around they're flying with their home
is car service they all type
of shit they show video rooms they
hotel you know what I'm saying
the drip
yeah this shit costs
it costs a lot you know
three four bitches at suchies
but you know
I mean
everything I say all this shit like
it's the game we don't complain about it
you know what I'm saying
you're putting it in
yeah because we believe though
you know the special thing with us
which I think you know
is a unique situation
and what we got
with all I
with all the artists I work with
he's like my brothers though
so they make it different too
you know what I'm saying
so everybody that I work with
we're going to go to extra extra
mile with them because it's personal
he's like the little
he's the bros too you know what I'm saying so
we ain't even like
we see them it's like looking in the mirror
like you know what I'm saying
we treat them just like we treat
like we treat ourselves so
you know it's moves niggas we want to do
that don't make any sense
but we still do the shit because it's important to them
it's important to what means
something to their artistry or they creative
or whatever it is
so it's like we do this shit
knowing that's like
a no return
you know what I'm saying
we're gonna spend these people
and ain't gonna come back from it
but it means something to brodo
you know what I'm saying
so and you're an artist
so you know
you know as artists
you have those things in your head
sometimes like
nobody can see it but you
nobody believes it but you
nobody understands it but you
you know what I'm saying
so I think like
so I think that's
one of the good things when you're working with somebody like
you know a CMG versus
a major record label
they don't have them personal feelings to care
about what the fuck you care about
you know what I'm saying like this shit don't make sense
it just don't make sense
you know what the very thing is
that type of music isn't music
is it moving in the marketplace right now
it isn't good right now
yeah so so um
because I because it's like you know
everybody everybody like
everybody just bosses you know what I'm saying
everybody like if they want to do it
It's getting done.
Who was the first person to believe in you on the rap shit?
First person of believing me on the rap shit.
Like, no, nigger, you could do this shit.
Like, nigga, you're nice.
Before you even knew you was like, it's like, wait, nigga, I'm nice.
Like, you might have thought the nigger was capping at first.
Like, you sure, nigga?
No, nigga, I'm telling you.
I got a unique story, you know what I'm saying?
Like, again, I see a lot of artists that complains about nobody helped them.
Oh, my hood didn't help me, my sit in and support me.
The radio didn't support me.
That ain't my story.
My story, like, the story, like, the totally opposite.
Like, I probably was, like, the only nigga or the last nigga in my hood
that didn't really fuck with the rap shit or believe it.
You know, all my niggas were pushing me, like,
well, you can do this shit, bro, go do these shit, bro.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, you know, I had an RIP, my big homie poochie.
He was like one of the guys that really used to push me,
one of the OGs from my hood.
and he always tried to like spend me a little bit
when certain shit were going on in the hood
he tried to spin me and I used to take it personal
because I thought like
why you didn't tell me what's going on that I need to know
yeah one time I pulled him to the side
and I'm like I want you down soft or some shit
like why you keep playing me like that
like I see you spending me with the info
and he was like no bro like you know
what you're doing what you're doing
you got a chance to change all that life
what we're doing this shit what we're doing
he's going to end like this room
but the shit you're doing
if this shit worked you can come back and change
all our life and I understood it
so I always had niggas like him
you know he's instrumental but I'm saying
that was the whole vibe though
in the hood like because I wasn't like
in the beginning I didn't have all the money
and shit in the hood so
these niggas had expeditions and cat legs
you know the shit nigga right back there
so all these niggas had cars on
rims and shit and when my album
would come out we'll hop in
seven-eight cars no rentals
We ever had a car
We had a load up
Six, seven cars
Right at Atlanta
Hanging up posters and shit
But everybody was in their own cars
I wanted to rent six seven calls
For niggas to go
On a promo campaign
Me niggas were getting in their own shit
Paying for their own gas
Binding their own room
Pushing my shit
You know what I'm saying
Because the hood
They just supported me like that
They just like
They believed in this shit
Like I can say
Like I feel like they believed in the shit
Or they saw the shit
Before me
You know what I'm saying
And they had to like
they had to help me see it
so I ain't got one of them like
mad rapper stories
we're like oh ain't nobody to fuck with me
all these niggas ain't support me
man everybody in my hood
but see the thing is
that's because niggas fuck with you
before you was rapping
yeah because there was the same nigga
that were hustling with me right so
you know what I mean it's a big
you know it's a big difference
when you got the kind of respect
and a love from motherfuckers
that's just genuine before you
even doing something then when you start
doing something and you look like
oh you could win at this year the hood gonna go all the way out for you yeah know what i'm saying
they gonna show you all the love because they knew you was a genuine good dude you know what i mean
even even motherfuckers putting that protection on you were trying to put that protection on you like
no bro you got a different talent than everybody else that's why i'm spinning you it ain't because
i think you saw for none of that but you can help everybody get out it's like the basketball player
in the hood like bro you're six eight bro you're about to go to duke why would i had you out here
on the corner you could
change everybody's lives
or just give us some inspiration
you know because you made it out
we know you from the bottom
we you know somebody that come from
where we come from made it out that's a lot of
inspiration even to the youth

So what are you waiting for?
What you need to do is?
Swipe me down.
Play it as me.
Swipe me down.
What do you wait for, Roman swipe?
It's funny you say putting them posters up and all that shit
Because a lot of people that don't know
A lot of the young people
They might see you as, you know, yo Gotti now
They don't know the live from the kitchen gotty
They don't know the guy that was putting his own posters up
Printing his own CDs up
They just know the guy that
Giving out 750 on the gram
Yeah, they know that we're going to get to that too
Now, what we're talking about
When he first was doing his thing
So you can understand how long he'd been putting his hustle down
This is when you used to have to print your own CDs up
and you said to send them to the distributor.
You'll send them to the distributor.
And they, in the distributor, you might be Southwest.
You remember Southwest distributing?
Yeah, I used to use.
Selecto hit.
Selecto hits.
So Pete.
Because Selecto in Memphis, so a nigga pulled straight up, get the check.
You know what I'm saying?
You can have right off the estate, get your check, be back in the hood.
You know, back then, we want to, we have other motherfuckers to cash,
the checks for us at there, that we put in the, we're getting into the motherfuckers.
We want the cash.
We want the cash.
Like he said, selecto hit.
Some of these, like, selecto hits.
his name, you had to, some of them,
you had to print your own CDs, say you print
5,000 CDs. Then you take them to the
distributor, the distributor had the stores,
the mom and pop stores, that could hit that barcode.
Remember the barcode gun? You being your mom and pop stores
probably all down in the Chitlin Circus and all that.
So he'd been hustling since then. He said he was putting
his own flyers up. We got to think about that too
artists because a lot of people, and I'm going into the
750, a lot of people would say he told you he was putting his own
posters up. I did all my own shit,
My nigga, I was a promotional team.
I was the driver, the security.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, we did, we was everything.
Like, we went to the, we were going to the show.
We were taking turns.
We were taking turns driving.
I drive four hours and then I drive two hours.
We swapping up in the car again to the show.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, we did it.
I played every position.
So he was already operating as a company and pay attention to what he said.
He said we would take shifts.
so for everybody that's out there
you worrying about the whole city
get your home boys together first
make sure y'all pushing and moving as a unit
your company already
so you got to make sure that they rocking with you
because a lot of people will be sitting there blaming the radio
they blameing the promoter they blame the club
they're blaming the... No you got dudes that you smoke weed
with a day. That don't support you
So y'all got to figure that out. Your shit come out
he never pushed your shit on the gram, yeah his shit
no your avatar whatever they call it
the profile pick all that
And ain't your album
Yeah so at the end of the day
And I'm saying it to say this
I ran into a lot of you young cats
y'all know y'all be in my DM
y'all be seeing me on the streets
wherever I'm in New York
wherever I'm at
yeah man you see God he gave
hold up hold up stop talking about that 750
because a lot of y'all told me
yeah label got to do this and do that
bro there's a lot of work
ESTG ain't come out of nowhere
and just get that 750
y'all keep measuring that
y'all don't know his story
and you don't know what he went through
and how did he get your attention
and how did the lead up to the 750
because people need to know
for g yeah
man um i think i got on the g and during the pandemic i was at home
that was the first time actually i ever been in the house like three or four months
straight so all i'm doing is looking at youtube and watching shit and seeing shit but um
y'all know nigel right y'all know nigel yeah so why giant man so niger hit me one day
and he like yo and i think he texts me like yo hit me i guess i want to speak to you about
when i hit him like man it's this artist from um
artist from Kentucky.
Dang, gee, he's hard.
I just feel like he fit
what you're doing over there.
And I'm like, man, just send me the music.
You know what I'm saying?
So when he sent me the music,
I think he sent me like three videos
and a couple songs.
And this nigga was so hard.
I'm like, God, damn, this nigga hard.
You know what I'm saying?
So I like just listened to him
for like four or eight hours.
It's great for I even got back to Nige.
I think I'm just listening to him,
listening to him.
And I did some kind of a little.
different than I normally do
because we got A&Rs and all this shit. We got like
this ain't just no like
just for the record like we're a real
label like we got A&Rs we got every department right
so normally you know the normal
A&R can find an artist or I send the music to
A&R but G was so raw
that I sent them to my brother
I don't normally send the music to my brother
you know what I'm saying because but G was talking so much
you know what GB talking about he talked that shit
That shit was just so like, I sent it to my brother first,
and I'm like, listening to this and this nigga, tell me what you think.
And you're bag, like, I mean, hard.
That nigga talking it.
You feel me?
What was, when I first heard it, was it?
Did you get it like that?
When I first heard him, I could see it.
I pinched her the whole, like, he visualized.
The way he rapped, I could visualize that shit because I knew it was just real.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, you know.
You know, if you know, you know, you know, you know what I'm saying?
You can tell in the.
in the tones and then the pain and then in the dialogue
or how you say certain things if you if you live this shit.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
So, yeah, it went from there.
I sent the music to my brother.
I sent it to the A&R, but I was already fucking with it.
I hit Nigel back.
I'm like, you'll put me on the phone with brunt ASAP.
So I think that next day from when I hit Nigel,
or the same day, we was on the phone.
So we're on the phone and we, you know, me and him talking, and, you know, we talked for a minute.
You know what I'm saying?
The shit, we was talking about you telling me about what he was going through, like, actively in Kentucky at that time.
And I was like, yo, when it was a pandemic, I'm like, I need to get in front of you, though.
I need to see you because every artist that you see me work with, they'll tell you that they spent time with me before we did business.
You know what I want to make sure that, like, you know, we have the same goals in line.
the same drive, the same hustle,
because you can be the coldest artists in the world.
If I don't fuck with your mentality,
I can't fuck with you.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
If I don't fuck with your hustle, I can't fuck with you.
Yeah, like, because, you know,
so I told, gee, I'm like, when can I,
I'm like, you know, it's the pandemic and shit,
and I actually want to move in it all.
I get the pandemic and shit, so when can I,
oh, we got to figure out what day when this shit
slow down when we can get together and bro,
like, shit.
I'll come out of you tomorrow, some shit like that,
or where you're going to be in?
So, like, even a little shit like that,
let me know like what type of nigga he was like
I ain't know like sit back
nigga and wait for shit happen I'm gonna go
get the shit I want I'm gonna do the shit I want
and that's how I moved so when I seen them
say this it's a little signs like that
already made me fuck with him
you know what I'm saying then I had a video
actually a recession proof video
if you go back see their recession
proof video
yeah they're buying there
that shit was like anyone even playing like this
something had came up in Atlanta
and we was all out there
And everybody, I noticed I've seen everybody posting their calls and shit.
I'm like, damn, everybody out heard with their whips and shit.
I'm like, yo, tell them everybody bring their calls to the house.
I'm going to shoot a video like the next day.
You know what I'm saying?
And G was out there.
My brother hit me like, G said he's going to pull up to the video.
And G pulled up if you go back and watch him in the video,
him and his home is all going to pull up with the chains on and shit.
Pull out the money in the video.
You know what I'm saying?
You know what I'm shooting my video, but I'm watching them.
You know what I'm watching him.
I'm like, you know, I fuck with this nigga.
He's one of us.
You know what I'm saying?
So I just, the music was already during the, you know,
one or two times being around them.
I think he came to Miami and fucked with me.
He pulled up at the studio, two, three raves,
done with those, a couple of Rolls, Royces and shit.
You know what I'm saying?
They already APs down, skydwellers, you know what I'm saying?
So I know what type of niggas I'm dealing with.
You feel me?
And then I went to his hood, too.
I actually went to his hood.
The island.
Yeah, I went to Kentucky.
And I went to his hood.
You know what I'm saying?
Like I like to feel this shit
I like to know what I'm dealing with
I like to know who I'm dealing with
You know what I'm saying
I ain't just talking to no niggas over no desks
And then coming out of her selling this shit
To the world like I want to know
This shit really what it is
Right
You know what I'm saying so
Yeah but GG
Authent
Solid you know what I'm saying
And he was already
He was already getting his own money
He was already doing his own thing
You know to me
And I think to him too
The 750 probably I know
big thing to me or him like it was to everybody else yeah you know what I'm saying
damn it was cool that was good no because it's good because you know every artist to run
around telling us me I need this I need that I need you see what's name got 750 I'm like hold up

So it ain't no amount of money.
It's just, you know, it ain't, you know, it's cool, but it ain't,
like I said, it should may be big to people who see it on the internet.
Yeah.
But to us, you know, it's why I think niggas appreciate it.
You know what I'm saying?
And I think it's a good gesture.
Everybody, because nobody gives somebody $750 for a birthday gift.
No, that was a son.
Oh, so $1.1 million for a birthday gift.
So, no, that's big.
This is how I look at it, though.
Why not when you've been getting money with a nigga for five years?
No, no, no.
I'm not saying it's a bad thing.
I'm saying it's a great thing.
I love to see black men doing shit like that.

and they represent their um i'm gonna come back to that in the other side side be
is me with a suit on in front of a new phantom
and what I want to display on this is
I think I'm one of the people who are in a unique situation
like you may see me
you may see me at the Grammage front wall with Jay
in this same day I may be riding in the car
with black youngsters or you might be down Kentucky
on the corner of the islands
or I may be in J-Hood or I may be
you know what I'm saying like
and it's not forced.
Like, I'm really living in these different worlds organically.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, I'm really in the room with the top,
not just, you know, not A&Rs of the music industry,
like the chairmen's and shit.
And I'm really in the means with these people brokering
some of the biggest deals that's happening.
You're in the Hamptons.
You know what I'm saying?
You're in the Hamptons with Mike Rubin and all of them.
Yeah, I'm really brokering in the rooms
with certain people, top people broken some of the biggest deals.
is happening and I'm leaving
there and jumping in the track hawk
with my little homies and
moving how they move
and because we
living like that in real time
and in real life and you know
it's special though
because especially because we can do
that you know what I'm saying and I think
the album cover that's what we was trying to tell
the story is that like you know
I'm not don't get it fucked up
like I don't ride track hawks
and I'm only in in phantoms
and shit nowadays and
because we're so successful.
You know what I'm saying?
Nah, I'm still on this shit too.
But see, that's why you get the cultural trust from the young niggers because...
Because they fuck with me because they know they know I'm one of them.
Right.
And not only...
But not only you one of them, you still reachable.
You know what I'm saying?
And too, not only that I'm one of them, I'm one of them is giving them the information.
It's helping them become one of me.
Yeah.
Right.
You see what I'm saying?
A lot of people don't do that.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, it's like, you know, you get what I'm saying?
You know what I'm saying?
Absolutely.
Like all my little homies, I give them anything I know, I tell them.
We ain't had no information.
We ain't, you know what I'm saying?
He was on.
Anything we learn, we bring back to the table.
The fact that we made it out on limited information is fucking remarkable, man.
Niggas didn't have the internet.
Motherfuckers didn't have Google.
You couldn't just go.
Wait, hold on.
How old is such and touch?
Wait, uh,
Oh, he's 44.
Like, we didn't have none of that shit to our, you know what I'm saying?
So the fact that we made it out of these fucked up environments that we grew up in with limited information?
Because now these kids got, they got everything in the palm of their hands.
You could be one of the dumbest motherfuckers on planet Earth, but you can get all the answers right off your phone.
So, you know what I'm saying?
So for us, it's like, but the reason why the young kids fuck with you is what you said.
You'll be at the Grammy's front row with Jay, but you also ain't lost touch with them young niggas.
See, a lot of niggas come from where we come from, but they get that money and they touch ain't there with them young niggers no more.
That's the reason why the young niggas fuck with us so much, because we base our show off of young niggas.
Only old niggas we interview and you got to be a legend, nigger.
we ain't interviewing no old niggas
unless you are legend or unless we personally
want to interview you
because we turn down more interviews than anything
because this is for niggas that own tomorrow
this ain't no throwback Thursday podcast
man when we talk about niggas coming on here
talk about what they was doing in 96 and all that shit
don't nobody give a fuck about none of that
you feel so for us it's like
that's why we appreciate you man
because you got that connection
to the youngans and the youngans look at
you as a
what 20-something year old niggas give a fuck about old
niggas, man, I don't give fuck about no old
I mean, you know, you know, but they fucks
with you. Yeah, yeah.

In CM10, as I described it, covers, and it's called Free Game,
because even, you know, outside of the, outside of all the artists I work with,
personally hand every day, you know, it's a lot of artists that I have no business structures
with that I talk to every week, every other week.
It asked me information.
They called me like, yo, my label was trying to play me like this.
how you think I should handle that shit
and I, you know what I'm saying?
I wouldn't never say nobody name
because I would never put nobody business out there.
You know what I'm saying?
But it's like, I fuck with them.
I just fuck with the young hustlers, man.
You know what I'm saying?
And I'm always just giving them information
and that's why I call it free game
because, you know, it don't cost nothing.
You know what I'm saying?
It don't cost nothing to help someone.
It don't cost nothing to teach someone.
You feel me?
So I had to learn.
I'm still learning.
And I don't have no problem
with giving anybody the information
that somebody gave me or did I learn
the hallway either way. You know what I'm saying?
So whether the artist is with me or not,
it's a lot of artists who get information
from me, bro, on a daily basis,
weekly basis. You know what I'm saying?
Because I fuck with them. I like what they're doing.
I like where they're going.
I think they can go the distance.
So I invest that time,
my time, into having them conversations
with them for free, with nothing to gain
in return, you know what I'm saying?
Outside of the family, I know the family.
CMG is on his album.
Who else is on our many big features?
Any surprises?
I got 21 Savage on the album.
21.
I got 21 Savage.
I got the girl from Jamaica, since she'll.

But, of course, you got G on the.
Yes, T-G, Money Bag, Yo, O2 Doug, Black Youngster.
Who else I got on them all?
I got two sides, man.
Two sides, yeah.
You're giving us a two-pot.
You're taking this year, the double-disc.
How many songs on each side?
11.
11 on side A, 11 on side B.
And I got, you know, it's treks on that call, like, going back to what we were saying,
living in these different worlds, I got a trek called strapped in Calabasas.
Right?
That's both, that's the mix of both worlds.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm in Calabasca and I'm strapped.
Exactly.
Like, I'm down the way.
You know what I mean?
Like, I'm ready for some dumb shit right here.
always i'm always i do you have to always be really you have to always be ready so
like this if you listen to the titles i'm trying to take you to like
this was really going on really going strapped in calabasas or palm trees in
mephus you know how you get those there you feel me we're in point this shit
you know they represent like they represent the success you know mean we represent
the success within we steal the same type of niggas in the same type of niggas in
the DNA that we've been from the
get going. It may not never change.
You know what I'm saying? Even with the success,
you know, we're going to get smarter. We're going to move
smarter. You know, but we all.
But you all, you all, man.
We all who we are, you know what I'm saying?
Showing anybody that this shit is possible.
Yeah. You got to understand this.
You're looking at Yo Gotti,
but you got a thing about this, 1996, that was a little yo.
Yeah.
That just had, you know, he's like, man, I'm trying to figure this shit out.
Yeah, spray you up me.
On the cover, you know what I mean.
Little yo.
Young and on the comer.
And my man, my old, my old, little yo who the old hair used to lie.
No, there ain't no beef around here, man.
Chill, man.
Yo, go get the fucking rap, man, nigga.
You know what I mean?
And then, you know, you hit him with that live from the kitchen.
That title was just magical.
All white on.
Yeah, all white on.
That was his twist for a long time, the all white shit.
I'm still fucking with that white.
White my favorite color.
You know, it means it's a special color to me.
Yes.
It represents the struggle, man.
It's a lot.
Like, we got a lot and we lost a lot.
Lost a lot.
For that color, you know what I'm saying?
Yes, yes.
So it means a lot to me.
But I got other tracks on that, too, man.
One call, I just left the Hamptons.
One call just left the Hamptons.
And I did this record the day after I went to their Michael Rubin
or the Michael Rubin part in the Hamptons, you know what I'm saying?
Like the next day I came home, I went to studio.
and I made the record
just left the Hamptons
and I say some shit in that motherfucker
like a Michael Rubin just inspired me
all white party was the irony
I used to think
getting the honey bricks was ill
this nigga put a honey meal in a crib
you know what I'm saying like do you know the difference
of the value of a hundred bricks
and a hundred million dollars
you know what I'm saying just from a
because in a street term if you get a you know
you're in a hundred of them joints like you
you're that guy you feel me but think of how small
it is to a nigga that is putting a hundred million in a crib.
You get what I'm saying?
Absolutely.
Like the thinking process of what's money and what success changes.
Absolutely.
You know what I'm saying?
Because like, come on, man.
Like if you're from the script, bro, you'll die for a hundred bricks.
You're going to say, you risking it all every day for less.
Absolutely.
You feel me?
And it's like to now I walk in a spot and he's got a hundred million dollars in the crib.
And this ain't, it's probably just one of them.
you feel
me like that's the type of motivation
that I'd be wanting to see
and I'd be wanting to experience
I see shit like that
I go back and call Doug
I go back call bag
I go back call HGGX him
what we're doing
you know what I'm saying
yeah we're getting 100,000
the show you're getting this
you're getting this but man
this thing I was just at storm
so I didn't put a hundred million in the crib
you know what I'm saying
but we got to go harder
right
you know what I'm saying
we get money
we got to get more money
but see
you know what I'm saying
and in life
as you grow
it's different levels of motivation.
You feel what I'm saying?
To the young niggas on the streets,
42 is the motivation.
Moneybag you is the motivation.
Yeah, and they should be
because they're showing niggas.
It should go from where they came from
to where they had.
To them,
Yo Gotti is the motivation.
A nigga like Jay-Z,
a nigga like Rick Ross,
but to them,
Well, Jay already got a billion, so we're going to take Jay out of that conversation.
But to them, then you got a niggas, like, probably that Jay and Michael Rubin
and certain other people that's on a different level than y'all, even though you got an
asshole full of money, their money is different from yours.
So it's like, damn.
So it's always levels of motivation as you climb the ladder.
You know what I'm saying?
And Jay most definitely motivation to me.
And for the record, Jay, the first hundred million other house I went to.
So Michael Rubin will be the second one,
so I've been to two of the motherfuckers.
I'm hoping that the third one will be mine, you know what I'm saying?
So how many square feet is in a $100 million house?
Like, God damn.
Like, God damn.
Like, that's an amusement part.
All I can tell you is the shit fly,
and I'm one of them niggas who I see shit,
and I'm inspired by it, and I'm going to get it.
What is, you know, being his daughter's album,
you know, CM10, it's free game for the street.
you know, for the people
that's trying to come up,
just trying to figure this shit out
that don't know what's going on.
What is some free game
that hold gauge you?
Man, so much, man.
I mean, like, sometimes, you know,
sometimes, like,
what I learned throughout the years,
sometimes you learn from niggas moves.
Sometimes you learn from just being in the room
and it ain't even a direct conversation.
You know what I'm saying?
Sometimes you learn from a nigger
allowing you to be in the facility
or where the play is happening in it.
You know what I'm saying?
So in that magnitude, it's a lot of games, you know what I'm saying?
But it's one-on-one conversations too.
It's one-on-one conversations, too,
there was direct shit and direct questions that I asked them,
you know what I'm saying,
one being when I was about to purchase my masters,
you know, at the time, they were like one of my biggest purchase
I was ever going to make.
So I went to Hovehouse and talked to him about it, you know.
And some of the things he said to me helped me make the move, you know what I'm saying?
Now, coming in the game, you got it.
First coming in the game, you're getting hot, you're heating up, you're starting to get to just do.
What was that moment that you might have been at an award show, you might have been,
you might have just been out and about, but you.
bumped into that person
and they was like
hey you got
oh man I fuck with you and you were standing
there like oh shit
oh this shit changing
now
my fucking Beyonce just walked up on me at the
motherfucking awards or
you feel what I'm saying
when you was a young nigga in the game
what was that person
that moment when you was like
all right
shit shit might be getting
a little different now
um
their moment
I remember a couple
shows I remember I got booked
to do a show in Jersey
that was like the first show
I did on the East Coast
and you know
at the time I didn't even know
the difference between Jersey
and New York
Yeah
All this shit with New York
You get a nigga from down south
They did everything is New York
I'm from Philly
Oh yeah New York
I was actually booked in Jersey
But I'm thinking it's New York
And I had a song called
That's What's Up
And when they dropped it in the club
These niggas went crazy
I couldn't even believe that shit.
I'm like, damn, you need to know my shit in New York.
And then I end up doing...
New Jersey, man.
Yeah, I'm saying, I'm telling you what I was thinking of.
Oh, yeah, okay, yeah.
Yeah, but I was in Jersey, and
then I'd done a show
in Baltimore, shout out to Tracy,
like one of the first promoters ever to bring me
to Baltimore, and Baltimore came up
and showed out. The shit was sold out.
And being from Memphis,
I couldn't even, like, believe that shit.
was even listening to a nigger's shit
like, you know, up on the East Coast
and shit.
So that was that moment when you was like,
no, nigga, you left out of there
and called niggas back at the trip.
Nigger, this shit was crazy
in Baltimore, but I couldn't even, you know,
I won an artist too, bro, that
you know,
it was special to me
to even get paid to do a show.
Okay.
You know what I'm saying?
Like when you're trying to get on,
I used to throw shows in Memphis.
Just to rap on the motherfuckers.
I used to book niggas bring them down
and then we just open up.
You know what I'm saying?
So I used to do shit like that.
So a niggas started paying you to do shows.
This shit was like,
damn, niggas paying me to rap.
I'll rap for free.
Like, I just do this shit.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, so, you know.
When you first started getting paid,
how fast did it escalate?
How fast as these niggas is today?
Yeah, that I'm saying.
They're getting that.
He said a nigga
He said a nigga on the first of November
Be getting $2,500
By December 1st,
Nicker getting $45,000 out this bitch
Yeah, these niggas getting money
I love it
Yes they are
You need money, I love it
But that's because the niggas like you, man
The niggas that came before them
You know what I mean
That set the presence down
For them to be able to come out here
And the crazy thing is
To make a lot of money
Doing shows
back in the day
you had to sell a lot of records
now you don't got to sell a lot of records
and you could still be making 60, 70,000
some shit that Big Daddy Kane
ain't never seen at a fucking show
or you know what I'm saying
because you can have
one of the first motherfuckers
that really come through
as far as the young niggas
and really just take over
on some
personality shit
black youngster
yeah
personality everything
yeah youngster turned the gram up
he turned that shit
up
talking out with the money shit
and all that shit
like
you feel me
and he showed you that
in this generation
it's about entertainment
man
even a lot more
than it is about music
a lot of us
about entertainment
and the cool thing about bro
is that
you know
it's him though
Yeah, he don't give a fuck.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, that's what make it cool is that all this shit that he be doing,
that's what he'd be doing in real life.
Like, he ain't doing this shit because of the camera, like, that's what he be doing.
You may pull up on a nigga, he got $800,000 in the car.
And you're like, you know, a nigga like me, like, bro, what you doing?
I'm just riding around.
I'm like, what, 800,000 though?
Yeah.
Shit, why not?
You know what I'm saying?
Like, it's him, you feel?
me so if a nigga in the car go up on the gram he got eight hundred in the car this
what's gonna be shown you know what I'm saying but it's him absolutely I see I fuck with
black too man shout out to my guy another pure one yeah me now what's so with that uh you know
the people waiting for you know the streets is waiting for that CMG album the whole I'm
talking about the whole the collector's edition we've been working on it we've been working on it
man it's coming it's coming I mean that's what I'm talking about man it's gonna be hard too
I already know.
You already know that shit can be crazy.
Yeah.
I mean, but we just want to give you your flowers while you hear, man.
You're a real one, and I told you, you're going down on my list.
You're on the list with anybody else.
When I think about everybody, and it's not taking them from nobody,
but I'm talking about your execution and just how you putting cats on
the things you say today, like you don't hear that often.
Like, you want them, you know, you put more into a budget for them
than you ever seen in your life for yourself.
Yeah.
And that's what's so real about you, man.
We want to salute you for that.
We want to thank you for coming up here, giving these young cats some free game.
You know what I mean?
Y'all got to go check that album out, man.
CM10, man, it's going down, man, that free game.
Go go check it out right now.
Stream it.
Double-sided.
Double-sided.
You got to check out side A and side B.
And we're going to merge them.
Actually, tomorrow, tomorrow we'll merge them.
And it'll be one component.
But I wanted to do something different.
You know, and what I'm doing, it was kind of against what I was advised.
to do.
Okay.
But I ain't never been a
nigga that was good
with falling rules and shit.
Okay.
So when motherfuckers
advise me to do something,
I mean,
if it's a good idea,
I fuck with it,
but I thought my shit
was a good idea,
and they said it was
kind of complicated
how it got to be delivered
to actually separate
the records
and to drop them
on the same day,
not put time in between it,
and that type of shit
made me want it to do it
even more.
They made me say,
nah, fuck that.
That's why I'm doing it.
Because I always want
to do some new shit.
I always want to do some fun and shit.
I want to do some different shit.
I don't want to just do with the same shit
everybody that was doing.
That's why I see them 10 and double this side A and side B.
So make sure y'all fuck with it, check it out.
There's a lot of game on that motherfucker.
Follow your visions over thoughts, too.
He had visions and other people have thoughts.
We don't think it can happen.
While my vision say, make it the fuck.
And I'm telling you all like this,
the next time y'all see Gotti on a million dollars worth a game,
we're going to be in Memphis.
Hey, who the hottest nigga in Philly?

He told me 42, Doug.

Man
But we're gonna talk about that
don't blow my phone
he's my youngest man
don't blow him
damn you ain't seen me
OG what the fuck man
calm down youngies
million dollar worth a game
man we're trying to get out
billion dollar of a game
and it's free
billion dollar of a game
one of the things I want them to
I don't know if we're wrapping up or not
but
one of the things I want them to
for the artist to lead with
the independent shit
you know what I'm saying
the independent shit
versus major shit
my nigga get your money
get your money how you gotta get your money
you know what I'm saying
and I think for me the most important part
is who your team is
you need to land yourself over with the right team
fuck the term
you know what I'm saying
because you're independent and it's just you
or even if you're majoring it's just
you have it is like what's your team like
you know I mean like a lot of people
brag on the independent shit
and you ain't really ready
and there's some niggas who are doing it independent
they're doing it right out my hat's off to them
but quit thinking that shit is just
like the um
like the Bible to
to being a boss
in the music business
you know what I'm saying
because a lot of niggas
ain't ready you know what I'm saying
you ain't ready to have
a 900,000
$800,000 amex charges a month
you know what I'm saying
we have any these type of
900,000 1.2 million
dollars a bill a month
just on one Amex cards you know what I'm saying
like you ain't ready to
spend that type of paper on
not only yourself on another nigga so
you know
you know
You know, just get the right team.
You know what I mean?
And when, I think independence is a mindset.
Whether you do a deal with somebody, whether you do it with a major label,
whoever, independence should just be your mindset.
I mean, you wake up every day and you make sure that you're going to get to where you got to go regardless
or what any motherfucker supposed to do for you, going to do for you, not going to do for you.
To me, that's the independence part.
Your mindset, you know what I'm saying?
All the other shit, my name, get your money, however you got to get it.
And the most important thing to all the young niggas, what he said is the team.
Wallow.
Yeah, I'd rather hustle with the right team any day.
You know what I'm saying?
And what's 100% of zero?
Yeah, you independent, you own anything, and you're only making $100 a month.
I bust it down.
We make $5 million a money.
We buzz it down.
Absolutely.
Who the better hustle?
Yeah, absolutely.
You know what I'm saying?
And you got to understand this.
It takes a lot of different department, the sink department.
because a lot of people say, oh, I own my master's.
You don't even know what to do with your master.
You don't even have no relationship to be able to monetize your master.
They ain't worth shit.
That's all I'm saying.
I'm not.
Hey, damn right, you own them.
They ain't worth shit.
I know.
You own them, but you can't get nothing for.
Shit, motherfuckeruckers signed me for $300,000, $1501.50.
I'm taking that $5,000, $6,000,000, go right to BNH.
Give me an studio.
Give me an Apollo.
Give me a motherfucker MacBook Pro of Mike.
I seen G.
I seen G on her.
Say he bought a studio.
for six i didn't even know that yeah you know what i'm saying nobody could have told me that
you was recording on six hundred dollars studio started maybe maybe that was some of the you know
you what i'm saying i don't know but i i didn't know that i didn't even know that you know what i'm saying
but they just showed you they're like and gee at the time i'm pretty sure you way more than the
six six hundred dollars than the nigga tennis shoes you see how the nigga be wearing
yeah i see yeah yeah yeah he's been six hundred on a hat you know what i'm saying so but
you can get it done
like ain't no excuses
you can get it done with whatever
how whatever is what I'm saying
you know what I'm saying so just go
get the money you know what I'm saying
get with the right team
quit complaining and shit
you know what I'm saying
quit quit quit
quit spending so much time
trying to be a boss
you know what I'm saying
and go make the moves
go make boss moves
and this shit gonna speak for you
because you're not a boss
to you really a boss
and that shit ain't even number
of the four letter word itself
like what did this shit even mean you know
I mean, like, I'm a team player.
All right.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm just one of the members on the team.
But, nigga, you're going to
try to downplay shit, just gave
a nigga 70.
I'm a team.
I'm a dedicated member.
No, nigga, you're a boss.
I'm a dedicated member to the team.
You know, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, and you're the older of the team.
He, Michael Rubin, a C of G.
I'm just a player.
This is all that shit, bro.
You're a player and an older.
It's a little different, God.
You're a player and a older.
And when he say team, team mean together each achieve more.
Absolutely.
Together we can win this shit.
Tell them again.
Together each achieve more.
That's what team mean.
That's what team is going down.
This is all our shit, man.
When you see me, when you see my youngings, we represent this shit at the end of the day
when you hear how we ran all this paper up and cash the fuck out, you ain't going to just hear about me.
That's what I mean.
Oh, no, no.
But at the end of the day, the way you put your youngings in position, man, is a different level of respect.
from the streets, man.
I want to tell you, if you don't know,
the way you put your young niggas in position
is it, and the way they speak about you
when you're not around.
You feel what I'm saying?
Money Bagu spoke the most highly of you.
You feel what I'm saying?
When I'm on the phone, I'm kicking it with black youngst
and we just chop it up for an hour and a half
and we don't even realize an hour and a half went by.
God, he's the realest nigga, man.
I'm telling you, Gilly, man.
I'm set the interview with him.
So, you know, one thing about it.
Fuck with you, man.
Yeah, I fuck with them and I fuck with them too
because they know that, and we fuck with each other.
Yes.
We like family, so they know that I'm with them.
You know what I'm saying?
They know that I'm with them, and I ain't just with them
when it's time to cash a check either.
I ain't just with them.
I'm with them in the courtroom.
I'm with them when it's pressure.
You know what I'm saying?
Even though we don't really have pressure.
You know what I'm saying?
But I'm with them anytime right or wrong,
I'm with them.
It don't matter.
Any nigga that's with me, you don't even got to ask me
if I'm with you, you already count me
and I'm going up with you.
I'm going down.
with you. You feel me? Like, that is how we move.
Like, so these my
bro's my bros, man. I can't even say nothing. You know what I'm saying?
Like, I'll fuck with them like that.
And they keep me on point with a lot of shit too.
You know, they keep me on point with a lot of shit.
Like, you know, they bring, they bring
when you say I put them in position, they put me in position

I was thinking about this shit.

we might have like 50 over 50 calls just in the squad.
I was thinking about this shit.
Damn.
You know what I was thinking?
because I was thinking about this video.
I want to shoot them like, damn.
That's about to bring their cars.
What's the most you ever spent on a car?
Me?
On a car?
Probably 500, some thousand.
550, like one of the new rose trucks
or the Big Phantamom, some shit like that.
I ain't ever bought no Bugatti or nothing like that.
I thought about it, but I think just coming from where I come from,
I just don't see no reason.
I can spend a couple million dollars on a car.
But you don't spend the least $3 million on ice.
On jury?
Yeah.
On watches.
Damn, just on watches, huh?
I probably spend on...
Nick, a check me.
Don't disrespect me, me, niggily.
I count.
I think I got six or seven million in watches.
I said three million.
You're talking about fucking watches.
You're talking about, pinkie rings.
Fuck you talk.
Yeah, I'm more into the watches now.
And what is it about the watches?
Like chains and shit.
Investments?
Yeah, watches hold their value.
Watches hold their value.
So buying watches is like buying real estate.
You know what I'm saying?
You know, when you were like, this cool, this is an AP skeleton.
When I bought this watch, it was 90,000.
They're selling this shit for $2.20 now.
And that's just because the market, you know, went up.
Is it a hard for you to get rid of that motherfucker?
What you mean?
Is it easy to sell?
No, I'm saying.
If I bought some shit for $90,000,
the motherfucker wanted to purchase it from me for $2 something,
I might be like.
No, that's when you fucked up.
He ain't fucked up, cuz.
No, no, no.
I know.
It's a pretty investment.
I do what you're saying.
I do what you're saying as a hustler.
But he said it's going to keep going to.
I mean, I don't know if it's going to keep going
up. You don't know if he's going to keep going up.
This ain't Bitcoin.
But the watches I'm really collecting,
they're more playing watches and shit.
Like most of these jewelers going to try to say
you bust down watches. You know, this to all
the youngest, too. I say that in
in a song called Free Game.
I said the jewel are going to try to sell it
till you bust down. They're going to tell you the same
thing. I say keep your value
by playing Jane. You know what I'm saying?
So.
You got a little.
a lot of my watches
I've been buying
lately the plane
yeah I like the plane
shit I've been buying
lately this old
this shit old
like I said
when I bought this
motherfucker was 90

low key

shit
15 years ago

we've been fucking around
for a minute
but we got a lot
of cars

I got the list
probably
Now, I got out of, out of everybody, I mean,
I see black youngs are having the most cars for no reason.
See, who got the most cause?
Money bag.
It's probably between Bag and Doug.
Doug got a lot of shit.
I think bag, I think Doug and Bagg, they got about,
they got 15 cars or something shit.
Mm.
I got a little phone.
He's got a lot of shit.
My shit ain't nothing.
Youngster got a lot of shit.
Yon still got a lot of shit.
But Yon still got a lot of shit.
Youngster, like me, like, he got a lot of shit, but he don't really drive it, you know what I'm saying?
Like, youngster, like, super militant, the way he move and shit.
But youngster's growth, though, now that I talk to him now, his growth is unbelievable, man.
Yeah, he's super, like, like me, like, like, like, the move, like, not being seen and shit.
You know what I'm saying?
So, like, we got a lot of shit that you don't even drive it.
I probably got the less cars out of everybody right now.
But you got 11?
No, no.
I got 11 cars.
I got the least.
What?
All the bitches cost 300,000.
I most definitely got the less calls out of everybody.
Come to think about it.
But it's because that shit old to you.
It's older to you than it is to them.
No, but I love to see it, though.
Yeah.
You know, I'm FaceTime.
I'm all the time I see them.
