Made for This Mountain is a podcast
that exists to empower listeners
to rise above their struggles,
break free from the chains of trauma,
and silence the negative voices
that have kept them small.
Through raw conversations, real stories, and actionable guidance,
you can learn to face the mountain that is in front of you.
You will never be able to change or grow through the thing that you refuse to identify.
The thing that you refuse to say, hey, this is my mountain.
This is the struggle.
This is the thing that's in front of me.
You can't make that mountain move without actually diving into that. May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to conquer the things
that once felt impossible and step boldly into the best version of yourself to awaken the
unstoppable strength that's inside of us all. So tune into the podcast, focus on your emotional
well-being and climb your personal mountain. Because it's impossible for you to be the most
authentic you. It's impossible for you to love you fully if all you're doing is living to please people. Your mountain is that.

In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood,
CEO of Tubi, for a conversation
that's anything but ordinary.
We dive into the competitive world of streaming,
how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold,
connecting audiences with stories
that truly make them feel seen.
What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core.
It's this idea that there are so many stories out there,
and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content,
the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen.
Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide.

In the fall of 1986,
Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal
that looked like it might bring down
his presidency.
Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir?
No.
It became known as the Iran-Contra affair.
And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second.
I'm going to ask...
I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn.
In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra,
you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal
that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago,
but which few of us still remember today.
The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you.
Please do.

Muhammad Ali was never afraid to express himself loudly and boldly and stays true to form in Ali and Me, an eight-part Audible original. Guided by his own words, this series explores Ali's life
and legacy through never-before-heard audio recordings and discussions with those who knew
him best. Muhammad had this real sense of his own personal values and principles, things he
believed in, his own sense of conviction. Those convictions never wavered. Hosted by Muhammad's wife, Lonnie Ali,
and his close friend, award-winning broadcaster, John Ramsey, Ali and Me goes beyond the boxing
ring to delve deeply into Ali's extraordinary life through conversations with Billy Crystal,
Mike Tyson, Rosie Perez, Common, Will Smith, and Bob Costas. It created a North Star for me of how I want to be in the world, you know.
As a child, as a young person, he gave credence to my audacity.
There's no debate that this is the greatest global sports figure of our lifetime.
Listen to Ali and Me, now on Audible.
All right, we got a very special, we got a very special guest.
Very, very special guest.

What's happening?
What's happening?
What's happening?
What's happening? What's happening?
What they do?
Why should let me hold something?
Why should, you know? Let me hold something, boy. Shit, you know.
Let me hold something.
Boy, you can't.
Yes.
I'm proud of y'all, man.
Y'all make some noise for these two right here, man.
Boy, we appreciate you stopping by.
Know you got a business schedule.
I follow you.
I see what you got going on.
Business, man, it's always business.
And for you to take time out,
to Grace, Ocho, and I, much respect.
It's too easy.
Tell us about the book.
You got a book called The Perfect Day to Balls Up.
What made you write a book and the title?
It was only right.
Every day is a perfect opportunity
to go to that next level, straight up and down.
Perfect day to write a book, another collaboration, New York Times bestseller with my brother,
Neil Belkin, you know what I mean?
And it was just about taking it to that next level and make it clear as possible for that
next generation of entrepreneurs, just so they know, yo, this is realistic, extremely
realistic.
I had you on the podcast.
You were one of my first guests on Club Shea Shea.
And you were telling the story how you was always a hustler, that you would, hey, for a little extra money, you was washing cars.
But for a little extra money, hey, I'm going to rearrange your cassettes.
I'm going to put them banks in there in alphabetical orders.
I'm going to do all this stuff.
You always had that entrepreneur
skill. You always had the ability
the foresight to see
like you know what?
The homie's going to like this.
That's what it's all about.
Take it to that next level.
Whatever you got going on
whoever your business partners are, surprise
them. Take them to that next level.
You see, I got my brand up here.
I want to try yours as well,
but that's what it's all about.
I got my homie Jeremy, Slippery Soap.
He in here tonight.
So it's just all about
always sharing that platform with my team.
And that's what we do.
We all see the progress.
We all grow.
You look back a decade later,
God damn.
Listen, you gotta think
but we go way back, bro.
We go way back. Way back.
So I'm trying to think, when I think about
artists today, how important do you think it is
for them to build their brand
the way you have
outside of the music industry?
But the thing is, you had the success to be able to do it
through music which made the transition that much easier right so how do you answer that question
it's one thing about building a brand but you got to be good at the first part that is your profession
right right what we all got to accept and be realistic about it. It's like going to the league. Everybody won't make it to the Hall of Fame.
You being an
artist, everybody may not know how
to go out and really
become that product or sell
products. It's a lot of huge
artists that can sell records,
but the young kids don't want to dress like
them, so they can't sell clothes.
They can't sell shoes.
Nigga won't even wear their socks
you know i'm saying so everybody can't do everything but what you do want to make clear
is the opportunities that are out there so if you're a young athlete you know i mean it's the
nil the game changing right now but it's all about making sure you understand you are a business you the ceo of
your life and every day you wake up you run it just like you would want to run your business
though i'm how do you stay motivated bro after all these years you got everything
everything and i follow you on Instagrams you constantly though constantly always doing
something new what motivates you after you have accomplished so much I'm gonna keep it real it
ain't it ain't about a dollar sign it ain't about a dollar sign even though I feel like
Rose deserved whatever it is he want and ain't nothing wrong with you feeling like that.
Because you got to go get it though.
You understand?
Yeah, you got to go get it. I'm a huge
dreamer. I dream of things that I never
you know, never fathom.
But guess what? There's so much more
to go.
Whoever imagining your mid-forties
or wherever you at, you under dig?
Damn, we really just beginning.
The paper really just coming.
The experience really just kicking in.
Now it's time to apply all that and let's go to that next level.
So I'm really, I'm still motivated.
I really am.
Obviously, when you get to this level, there was some failures.
There was some non-successes.
That's just a non-success at the time.
Not many, though.
How did, like, you getting knocked down, getting back up and says, okay, this didn't work, but the next thing's going to work.
Because I know how to accept certain things. I said this on my story this morning.
Just because you may not have achieved or accomplished what you set out to accomplish, it doesn't necessarily mean you failed.
You know what I mean?
Sometimes you just got to redirect shit, reapply certain things, and then the shit can pop off for you.
So you're going to take L's in the game. Anybody who think they're going to go shoot straight to the mountaintop
and not take no losses,
you got it fucked up
because that's going to happen.
And believe it or not,
we talking realistically in life,
our biggest challenges have yet to come.
So you better have your mind right.
You did?
Man, Ross.
Y'all had the summer going crazy yeah we did what what i
thought all y'all was like cool i'm gonna be honest on some rap shit it was no conspiracies
rosé name was said rosé i'm gonna jump off the porch that's what i do
when they call rosé yeah yeah yeah you you i'm gonna jump off the porch. That's what I do. When they call Rosé, he coming.
I'm going to jump off the porch and I'm going to have some fun.
And that's what I did.
I had some fun.
How do you feel about the current state of hip hop right now?
You know, I just feel like it's a lot of dope shit being made.
You know what I mean?
We'll see where it go.
As far as I ain't talking no
controversy type shit. I'm just talking music.
You know what I mean?
It's some dope shit being made.
We know the era I came up in.
We know the ones who inspired me
to always give them they flowers.
And there's some youngsters that's really hustling right now.
I want to see them take it to that next level though.
Because being successful making music is one thing,
but really marketing yourself
and making yourself a fucking iconic,
worldwide, global giant.
Making yourself a resource
because that's what a lot of these youngsters
have potential to do.
That's what I want to see them do.
Did you always
have that ambition? Like, yes, music
is my entry, but I'm
going, I see
myself as more than a musician.
I see myself as an entrepreneur.
I see myself as owning businesses
outside of the music because,
Ross, everybody knows you
as Rosé, but your biggest entities ain't got nothing to do with music. Because, Ross, everybody knows you as Rosé,
but your biggest entities ain't got nothing to do with music.
Facts.
That's without a doubt.
Yeah, shout out to that lemon pepper, man.
You know what I'm saying?
You know what I'm saying?
But I always had
a certain level of ambition.
I did.
Even when I couldn't dress good,
I knew once my paper was right, I'm going to be fly.
I'm going to be a fly fat nigga.
You know what I'm saying?
That was just always in me.
And that's just, that's how
I got to go. You know what I'm saying?
Every day I wake up, man, let's apply
this shit. Let's apply this shit.
You know what I mean? You want to be a boss? Make sure
you're the best boss there is. Have
some understanding. Make sure you communicate.
Every week, let's reiterate what the priorities are.
You can't give nobody no room to, no, no, no, let's stay focused.
This is how we got to do it, and that's what it is.
So I knew once I had the opportunity, as soon as they let me in the motherfucking door, I'm going to go crazy.
How do you determine who you respond to and who you don't?
Because obviously, me, I'm in this
space now and you get people taking pot shots
at you. But how does Raw stay like,
okay, I'll respond to this. I'm going to let that stuff
go. How do you determine what you're going to do?
Is it something to gain
for you?
Somebody wake up and hate on
Shea Shea, hate on Ocho. I mean, let's
sit back. Let's sit back.
Okay.
Let's sit back because not responding is a response when you a boss.
Oh.
You already said Ocho?
Yeah, because I ain't responding. I ain't responding to real.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Shit.
You know what I'm saying?
That motherfucker might wake you up early in the morning to text you some bullshit.
Hey, man.
Man, get on that goddamn story and don't even try.
That is a response.
You know what I'm saying?
So it's like, yo, to get a response from me, it has to be something really for me to gain.
If you just a mark who woke up and want to say the biggest boss name because you like my sneakers or something homie
that's it man calm down tell us about bumble yeah bumble rum bumble rum this is the fastest moving
bumble in the game make sure y'all check this out man what made you decide to get into the spirit
game really it was just me being in the club. It only makes sense.
If I'm in the club every night or if I'm in the club three, four times a week, it only makes sense.
I'm enjoying myself.
I'm having something to drink.
And I find myself in New York City one night.
I got a big record.
DJ Clue turned me on to Luke Belair.
I woke up the next morning and said,
what was that in that black bottle?
I need some more of that.
And that was just the beginning of me really.
I met Brett Barish and really just,
I just started repping everywhere I went.
I wanted it with me.
And that was just the beginning of the relationship.
Of all the songs you've made,
you collab with some of the greatest artists
of our generation.
Do you have a favorite song that you've created?
I can tell you my favorite.
My favorite verse, Devil in a Blue Dress.
Devil in a Blue Dress.
And my favorite song is Amsterdam.
But I want to hear from the horse.
Those are timeless.
Those are timeless.
I'm going to tell you, the reason why for me it's so hard to choose a favorite verse or a favorite record is because at certain times I'm in certain vibes.
I may wake up one morning and I'm turnt all the way up and I want to hear John or it might be something that's just running through my mind or it might be one of those mornings I wake up and it's, you know, damn, it's a Santorini grease type of vibe.
You know what I mean?
So it's just it depends on what the vibe is.
You know, it's like getting dressed.
Some days you want your shit.
You know what I mean?
Some days it's a little...
I interviewed Khaled, and I talked to Khaled,
and he said when he was coming up with this song
that you, Wayne, Hov...
And I forget who else was on it.
I think...
Who else was on it?
Yeah.
He said he didn't let anybody else hear anybody else's voice.
So you just...
You did your thing, Weezy did voice so you just you did your thing we did
his thing ho did his thing facts when you jump on a beat ross do you hear a beat okay obviously
let you play they let you hear it as you're listening are you formulate like i'm gonna go
here i'm gonna go there soon as soon as soon as i I hear it, I already know what needs to be done.
Now it's just how am I going to do it and execute it, present it.
Because you know who on it.
You know it, Ross.
I didn't.
Oh, that's right.
You didn't know.
I didn't know.
But if you know, let's say somebody asked you to do a feature.
Right.
And so you know who's going to be on it.
Like, okay, they tell you, okay, Ross, we got you.
We got X.
We got Z. You know you got to go hard know who's going to be on it. Like, okay, they tell you, okay, Ross, we got you, we got X, we got Z.
You know you got to go hard
because they going hard
because boss on it.
Right, right, right.
They going, they hard.
Yeah.
So it most definitely,
when you hear
whoever the collaborator is
or if they already on the record,
it most definitely affects
how you approach certain vibes. You know what I mean? But when, I like when Cal is in the record. it most definitely affects how you approach certain vibes.
You know what I mean?
But I like when Khaled's in the record.
Don't tell nobody.
It's cool.
I did my verse.
He may have had it back in the next hour.
What?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's how we work.
Yeah.
That's how we work.
About you.
Yeah.
Hey, you know, you heard me, huh?
You ain't know me at all?
Me ain't know. we got a song.
I like to hear his voice.
That's a fact.
No.
No, that's a fact.
We got a song.
He really came to the studio, pulled up to the studio, and he really laid down his boss.
That's real.
Boss, you should have charged him $10,000 to keep him at your studio.
Now, when it drop and we go quadruple platinum, don't be trying to, oh, I believed in you.
No, no, no.
Yeah, I'm like that on the mic, man.
Nah.
Still, look, everybody know you do great work. My favorite song from you have and always will be Every Day I'm Hustling.
Ooh.
Man, that means so much.
That's my anthem.
It means so much
still to this day to me.
I come out on the stage
wherever I'm at.
I just left overseas
halfway across the world
that every day I'm hustling.
Come on, that touch
and resonate with all the real.
It don't matter where you from,
what color you are.
You got to go get it.
Because these streets and life,
this shit don't care nothing about you.
Yeah.
You grew up,
and obviously you have close to people.
And I think the hardest thing is
is that when you have someone
that's been around you
when you weren't Rosé,
when you wasn't a boss,
how do you determine
who gets to remain in Rose's life
if they're not adding anything to Rose's life?
With me, it ain't always about what you adding to me.
You know what I mean?
Because everybody may not necessarily bring nothing to the table,
but were you genuine when it wasn't nothing on the table?
Were you there when it wasn't nothing on the table? You know what I mean? Yeah, so everybody may not bring nothing on the table. Were you there when it wasn't nothing on the table?
You know what I mean?
Yeah, so everybody may not bring nothing to the table.
But that's not how we going to judge your value.
We going to judge the genuine love.
Because it could be a motherfucker that really care about you more than anybody
and ain't got shit to give you.
You don't cut them off
for nothing.
With everything
that you've done, with everything
that you've accomplished,
what could possibly be next that you
haven't touched already?
What's next? I got a long
list, motherfucker.
You know
what I'm saying? And I'm just
keeping it real. The list, it's long
and it's going to stay long.
Let's stay motivated. Let's stay busy.
Let's keep moving.
Let's keep hustling.
You ain't going to win all the time, but let's keep
going. Because like
I said, Rosé rose i jumped out here
i didn't sign to no huge you know i ain't have no big team of producers that no we did this shit
one record at a time one album at a time one play at a time and we done ran laps around motherfuckers
that's what's up straight up music when is Rose going back in the studio when can we expect the next album?
I'm back in the studio right now and you gonna have a new album from the boss in December, baby
Yeah, yeah, we be hell we've been in the studio bitch
Yeah here
Is there anybody that you want to tell us that's on the album when you want to keep that low key for the time being?
Oh, I'm gonna give it all to tell us that's on the album or you want to keep that low key for the time being? Ocho.
I'm going to give it all to you at the end of the year.
You know what I mean?
I'm most definitely, we cooking up.
You know what I'm saying?
Shout out to my homies out in Houston.

Alright guys, the next guy that's coming to the stage is a Houston rap legend.
Hold on.
I gotta use the bathroom.
Boy, you got
kidneys like an old person.
I gotta pee pee. Go ahead old person. I got a pee-pee.
Go ahead.
All right.
I'm sorry.
Lord have mercy.
You see what I go through with this?
He ain't got no mic on.
You good?
You good?
I'm filling in for my homie, Chad.
Okay, that's what's up. What's up, everybody? What's up, Houston? What's good? You good? That's it? I'm filling in for my homie Chad. Okay, that's what's up.
What's up, everybody? What's up, Houston?
What's good?
Did you fly in for this, or are you here now?
I'm here. I'm local. My daughter's at Prairie View.
Okay.
She's going to...
Bebe!
Who's home?
Yeah, so my daughter, she's going into her junior year.
So I'm here just to support her her last couple of years.
So, yeah.
Bro, you've been in L.A. for two years.
I'm still in L.A.
Okay.
I'm still in L.A.
I wouldn't say back and forth.
But, yeah, I'm back and forth.
Right.
So what is T.O. doing now?
Man, I'm just being a dad, man.
My son, he was with the Niners.
He broke his hand, so he's not out of the woods.
He still has a chance.
So he's healing up right now.
Right.
So, yeah, so I've just been working out, training with him prior to pro day
and draft and all that good stuff.
So he got signed with the Niners.
He was doing really well.
Right.
Playing really better than some of the draft picks that they had.
So broke his hand like a couple of weeks ago,
so now he just has to heal up and then possibly be brought back on to the
practice squad possibly.
Maybe around week two, three, or what have you.
What's it like?
You played the game at an extremely high level.
Obviously, we want the best for our kids,
but we don't necessarily push them in a direction that we want them to go because you had your career.
You lived your life. Now I want my son to live here.
What is it like to see your son follow in your footsteps, go to the team that drafted you and is doing well?
Man, it was it's eerily similar in a lot of ways.
He started late. He didn't start until like maybe his 11th grade
year in high school. Went to Bishop O'Dowd in California, Northern California. And just like
my daughter, I mean, obviously they know who I am as they got older, but I never pressured or pushed
them into the sports that they're playing now, even with my son. He wanted to be a basketball
player. He realized like that's not his calling and so he didn't catch
on to the sport too late and so i wanted to be a resource and be available to him if he wanted to
pursue football as a career and so obviously like i said he started out at juco in a juco
consta costa yeah uh in california then he went to fau for a couple of years lane kiffin left there
and went to old miss willie taggart came, and they didn't really give him an opportunity.
He was a PWO, which is Preferred Walk-On.
So he left there and went to Missouri State.
So COVID year, his last two or three years, he played at Missouri State.
And so played considerably well, not as a starter, but his numbers, like I said,
and with his physical attributes attributes he was able to really
capture the attention of some of the scouts that were there so because he got a late start he's
been a couple of different places he really hasn't had a time had an opportunity to develop
assistant consistency and that's what you need to get good you need consistency you need stable
need stability experience and that's what he lacks. And I'm very transparent with my son.
Even with him being an undrafted free agent,
I told him, like, look, it looks good on paper.
Like, yo, you went to the team that I got drafted to.
Again, you may not make it with the Niners
because, like I said, it's a numbers game.
Like I said, they may have other positions
that they may need to fill or what have you. I tell him look it would be great if you continue your
career where I started but at the end of the day realistically it may not happen but when you go
out there you practice hard you do all the little necessary things to make yourself visible to let
them know that you have a skill set aside from the experience that he lacked
with some of the draft picks.
He's just as good as some of these draft picks.
He just lacks the experience.
But I told him, look,
it may be a numbers game
to where they may not retain you,
but you're auditioning for 31 other teams.
Correct.
Put good film out there.
That's it.
That's it.
What's been circulating lately
is that Tyreek racing Noah Lyles.
Tyreek, I don't know what much more attention that he needs.
I mean, he already has enough attention as it is.
But he's not beating Noah Lyles.
I don't care what it is.
What it is.
We made a bet probably like three years ago.
He said he would give me like 10 steps.
It was like nine yards, and we raced 100.
100 yards.
He barely made up a yard.
If I get a good start, I can beat Tyreek.
And that's no cap.
That's just me being realistic and understanding who I am and what my abilities are.
You believe you got a great start.
If you got a speed coach and says, oh we're gonna work with you for three months
and at the end oh no he ain't doing nothing but at the end of those three months and it says okay
you race tyreek what you want to race him in a 40 a 60 100 what you want to race
he has no chance in 100 because i'm i of those backers. You want to unwind. Yeah, I pick up at the end.
50 to 60, that's very competitive.
But if I get a good start, he's going to have a problem.
He's going to have a problem.
But he's not beating Noah Lyles.
That's not, no.
Why do you think he keeps challenging Noah Lyles?
I don't know what much more attention that he needs.
I don't know.
But it's not possible.
He's not about to beat
an Olympic gold medalist.
In nothing.
Ocho think he can beat him in a 50.
Ocho ain't beating me in a 50.
You slow.
Ocho thinks Tyreek can beat Noah Lyles.
No, he's not beating him in a 50.
It's about a mindset.
As football players, like I said, Tyreek is good football speed.
Right.
Hands down, he's one of the fastest in the NFL.
And there are some guys that will probably challenge him on that.
Right.
He didn't raise DK Metcalf.
Mm-hmm.
Why?
If you're that fast, like, raise DK Metcalf.
There's Marquise Goodwin, who was a track guy, Olympic guy. Why aren't you racing
these guys? Xavier Worthy, who
just ran the fastest 40. Man, you're biting off
a little bit more than you can chew when you're messing
with Noah Lyles. Like, what is it? What is it
you're trying to get out of this? But you're not beating
Noah Lyles.
You think he's beating Noah Lyles?
I said in the 50 or 60, it'd be close. He's not.
Because he get out so fast. And we've
been going at this for years.
Yeah.
You're not even faster than me.
I would admit, you're quicker than me.
No, you're not even a better receiver, B.
Stop playing with me, boy.
I'm Ocho, boy.
It's me, boy.
I'm going to go sit on this couch with that.
This is the yellow jacket couch over here.
You know what I mean?
Hey, homeboy.
Hey, this the yellow jacket couch over here.
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
You buy yourself a...
You know I got love for you.
I got a jacket, too.
I made my own.
So, look.
Hey, it's 300...
Listen, hold on, hold on.
I had my own, too, before I got my real one.
Nah, hold on.
It's 300 of y'all.
It's only one of me, nigga.
That's all good.
That's good.
Nah.
Like you said.
And I look better than you.
Nah.
Not happening.
Not happening.
Not happening.
Is there anything in your NFL career,
if you could go back and do over,
what would it be?
What would I do over?
What would you do over? Anything anything i'm talking about from college high school nfl 49ers cowboys philly anything is
there anything to your wish you could do over if if i could do it all over all over again i would
probably try i would probably have a better approach to the game and the position that i played i never
really had that affection and love for it until after my third year in the national football league
when i saw i made that catch against green bay right and then like two years after that they let
jerry go and they asked me did they put me in a position to fill his shoes if I would have taken the approach
to really like train like guys are doing now um off-season training running routes things of that
nature I honestly would have been a better receiver but all I did in the offseason would
play basketball my my only one season that I I worked on the field with other like quarterbacks
and things of that nature was when I got traded from San Francisco
to Philly Donovan McNabb wanted to come to Arizona Brian Westbrook I think Todd Pinkston
and some other guys Reno Mahe we went out there for like a few days just to kind of get acclimated
each other yeah get some chemistry or whatever that was the only time that I ever did any off the field workouts during my playing career.
I've done more so outside of that, working with my son and other guys than I ever did in my entire career.
So if I would have done that, there's no telling what type of receiver that I would have become.
What is the biggest misconception that people have of T.O.?
Everybody says that T.O. ruined this locker room.
He ruined that locker room.
I know you.
We have a very similar background.
You and I have talked a lot over the years.
Not on television.
We talk a lot more off television than we do on television.
What is the biggest misconception that people have of Terrell Owens?
Probably that I'm based on media portrayal, how they've covered me throughout the course of my career.
Having to talk to certain players in the locker room, they said that I was arrogant, I was cocky.
But I was a very confident individual.
I realized, like I said, coming from a small school, I wasn't drafted first or second round.
So I did the little necessary things to become great. I was very fortunate to be drafted third round 89th pick to the San Francisco 49ers.
I played with arguably the greatest receiver of all time in Jerry Rice.
I saw that day in and day out firsthand what it took to be great.
And I had two instrumental receiver coaches, Larry Kirksey and George Stewart.
Those two individuals, man, I'll do anything for.
They pushed me.
They saw me as a kid from small town, Alexander City, Alabama, small school, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
They saw the emergence, the development of who I was to come and who I was to be.
They saw it on an everyday basis from day one in training camp.
Larry Kirksey and George Stewart, they pushed me.
Every day we used to, on our Friday trips,
going on away trips, driving, getting to the airport,
he constantly told me, he's like,
you can be that one day.
He was pointing at Jerry Rice.
He said, you can be just as good, if not better than him.
And so I honestly started
to believe that. I didn't have a lot of confidence as with a skill set early on, but every day I
worked, I kept working and working and working. And I became something I honestly didn't have.
You really didn't have the confidence to know that I had in my ability, but I just kept working,
just kind of chipping away and chipping away. But a lot of people are thinking I'm arrogant.
I think I'm cocky based on what the media has said, even what you said about the locker room.
But you've never heard not one player say anything that can back up what some of these media and these analysts have always said about me.
You've not heard not one player that say that I was arrogant or cocky because it just isn't true.
Do you wish you could have had a better relationship with some of your coaches because this is what i tell guys
i was like all the time a lot of times when you're at one location some of these coaches are going to
go other places and get jobs right and then you're going to want the situation like you know what i
i was that on the staff with t.o man let's.O. in here. Maybe he can help the young guys.
Even if he can't give us 1,500 yards and 100 catches,
he can give us 50, 60 catches and maybe 700 yards.
But the experience that he can teach these young guys.
Do you wish you could have had a better relationship
with some of your coaches,
be it head coaches or position coaches?
The relationship was what it was.
Outside of that,
you have to be
a smart individual
to understand
what I brought
to every team
that I play on.
Bro, I was a five-time
All-Pro
pretty much with every team
that I played with.
Even playing on the team
with Chad.
Like, this is no
knock-and-chat.
Chad was with
Carson Palmer
for nine, ten years.
I came in only
with just a month
or so of preparation
and like I said, I ended up out playing
Chad, but we played well together.
That's no knock at you, Chad. I'm just saying.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
I'm just saying.
This couch is made for yellow jackets.
You can't come over here.
But it's really a testament
of what I brought to the game.
You were the three players that were the first team all pro with three different teams.
Absolutely.
You, Prime, and Ted Hendricks.
Yeah.
And so with that being said, the coaches or any of those guys could have vouched for me.
They didn't even have jobs.
It was a reason why they weren't in those positions to really vouch for me.
But at the end of the day, like I said, my stats, my everything, it spoke for itself.
Again, like I said, I was nominated in 2016 for my first nomination for a Hall of Fame. I didn't
get in. We already went through that. In 2017, they did it again. And obviously, like I said,
I went off on a tangent. I just did my own thing. So I honestly don't say or feel that I could have or wish I would have done anything different because I was me.
And I'm unapologetically me.
I've never had any off the field issues, no run ins with the law.
And there's a lot of individuals out there that gets those opportunities.
But for as it came, as it pertained to me and it became to me, I never got those opportunities.
So I can't say i can't say i
can't say that i would do anything different but i'm better than him nah let me stop let me stop
it's so funny everybody always asks me like where i rank you where you should should you be in the
hall of fame no i don't want to be there you don't want to be there no because then i'd be
like everybody else i got my own jacket well we were we were in that same boat at one point i had my own i had my own jacket
too yeah until i you know until i actually got you know it's funny a lot of y'all might not know
obviously you see teo and i going back and forth taking shots at each other but this is my brother
man we've been we've been cool man for how many years we going now well when we got when we first
when i acquired my agent,
we had the same agent at one point in time,
we didn't really know each other.
Yeah.
I was, like I said, I admired you from afar.
You were doing that.
You know what I mean?
Like I said, we were kind of trendsetters in our own right.
We used to celebrate after touchdowns, things of that nature.
And then they kind of banned it for a while.
And then they saw that that's what was needed in the National Football League
because the viewership, the ratings, everything went down.
Shot out the roof.
When they stopped it.
They stopped to celebrate.
And they saw that it was needed for the game.
Him, myself, I just tried to play and have a lot of fun with the game.
And that's what I wish I could have done is really,
I know a lot of people saw the highlights, this and that and the other.
But for me, it was work.
I really wanted to get into that end zone because I wouldn't be able to entertain
if I didn't score a touchdown.
So that was my motivation.
And then my mom, too, like when I was in high school,
you know, she went to a high school game.
I had a couple of catches.
And then I asked her, I'm like, yo, did you see my catches?
And she was like, well, what number were you?
So that's what motivated me.
When I got to the Niners, I was like, I knew that I was like with one of the most historic franchises in the century.
We played prime time.
I'm like, and I play special teams, too.
And I'm like, I play third and fourth receiver.
So third down situation.
You know how it is.
When you're not playing right away, you make sure you make the most of those third down situation. So I got in on a third down situation.
I'm in the slot. We're playing the Cincinnati Bengals. That was my first touchdown against
Ashley Ambrose. I did that. I was living in Atlanta at the time. I did the bank bank head bounce.
I knew my mom was watching the game. So there was no way she was going to miss that dance.
So that's how I started the whole celebration thing.
Some fun days, some fun days.
I think he's one of the top three receivers
to ever play the game.
The best, appreciate it, thank you so much.
Three players have been playing team all pro
with three different teams, and he's one of them.
Give it up.
T.O., T.O. Lorde.
T.O., T.O. All right, T.O.
T.O.
Hey, anytime you need to take a pee break, man, just let me know, man.
I got you, boy.
Hey, where we going tonight?
Where we going tonight?
I'm going to go back here and talk to Rae.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
We're going to talk to her first.
Don't get that bottle upside your head, T.O.
Fooling with Ocho.
That's my dog.
That's my dog.
We back on schedule?
Okay.
The next guy that's coming to the stage is a Houston rap legend, Trey the Truth.
Yeah.
Yay. Mr. Rap legend, Trey the Truth. Yeah. Yeah. What's going on, big homie? What's good with you? I love that I don't fuck for free.
What's going on, big homie?
What's good with you?
First off, what's up to the city?
H-Town, what go down, man?
I can't come here without blessing y'all, man.
Tay, come bring me some gifts for the homies.
Yeah, bring some gifts.
Well, don't nobody ever give me shit.
What you got?
Where the gifts at?
Hold on.
He moving slow looking. You about to get on him, huh?
Hey, where we going tonight?
I need somebody.
Ah, damn.
A few places, man.
Oh, shit.
Nah, you getting, just getting.
Yeah, yeah.
One for you and one for you, man.
Simple Southern Hospitality, man. Y' you and one for you, man. Simple Southern hospitality, man.
Y'all see my bump box?
Bump box.
Houston rap legend,
Trey the Truth.
Bro, I mean, Houston,
y'all got some heavyweights here
in the rap game.
You know, obviously you had the you know, the Ghetto Boys.
You got Meg, yourself.
Give me your mile Rushmore Houston rap legend.
Man, that'll be a hard one.
Oh, you got, oh, I forgot Bun, Pimp C.
That'll be hard.
I think, man, you know, crazy or not, I would give my mile Rushmore to all the ones we lost.
Because, you know, we got DJ Skool.
Yep.
We got Pimp C.
We got Fat Pat.
Big Hawk.
Big Pokey.
Yeah.
Man, keep going.
Big Mo.
I mean, it's a long list of them.
So my mom Rushmore would be to all the homies we lost.
Go ahead.
What impact did Brother J. Prince
have on your life?
A lot.
From before we actually became family.
Yes, sir.
Just motivation because, you know,
you hear the rumors
when you come up in the rap game
about how the South wouldn't
respect it or accept it.
And he was dedicated
to letting people know where we were from.
And, you know, just to watch everything he went through,
even from the trials and tribulations,
from being harassed from the laws to everything and still overcoming it,
it made me get out there and say I could do the same or better.
So definitely played a part.
Yes, sir.
Man, you got some size on you, bro.
You play ball coming up?
No, not at all.
God!
Why you two fidgeting?
Go get on the hit.
I handle my business when it's time.
That's all I know.
So the next generation of rappers that's coming up,
Houston rappers, you got Meg, you got Big X, Mexican O.T.
What are you most excited about?
Man, I'm excited for Houston in general.
You know, the
thing is, there's so many that's
on the front lines right
now that you may see, whether it be social
media, videos,
just, actually, if you look at Houston
right now, some of the biggest artists
in the world. We got Beyonce.
True. You got Trav.
You do have Meg, man.
Shit, Yolanda Adams from here.
That's the biggest ever, you know?
But I think it's no cap at the top of how high a lot of these artists can get.
I'd be more excited for like the street and underground rappers
to finally get their recognition as opposed to the ones that had their chance mainstream.
Your hometown team, the Houston Texans.
Yeah.
CJ Stroud led by the great rookie quarterback last year coming into his sophomore season.
What are you most excited about your Houston Texans?
I think everybody in the city.
We're at a point in time we wasn't too excited about the Texans.
But we're definitely excited.
Now you got CJ, you got Diggs, you got my little bro Tank Dale.
I mean, everybody doing their thing.
And I think it's like a reinvention of the city,
the same way with the Rockets, with the same young as coming in,
doing their thing.
So we got a bright future coming.
Listen, Houston awarded you with your own day,
trade day for your work in the community.
Now, how does it feel to be honored, man,
for the community programs and work you've done here?
It's a blessing, man.
Even though they gave me the day,
and which had just passed,
I always made it a day to give back.
So now, I think in Houston, I got seven holidays.
So literally, and I got two keys to the city.
So I don't think there's really much more
I can get from the city.
You know, it's about just giving back for me, man.
Yeah, that's loud.
Who has the best barbecue in Houston?
That's a hard one.
Somebody just asked me
that backstage.
Well, I need to know
because I'm here
for another day.
What you say?
Triple J.
I was telling them,
shit,
we got more
live or soul food
anyway than just
barbecue, too.
Okay, that's a good one.
What's the best
soul food spot?
What's the best soul food?
Because I'm going tomorrow.
They got them everywhere
from Mickey's
to Esther's
to all kinds of.
What's the best one?
Which one y'all say?
Who she say?
They saying Mickey's.
Mickey's.
Mickey's, definitely.
Mickey's.
Okay, I guess we're going to have to try Mickey's.
What time you want to go tomorrow?
As I get out of work.
Where you work at?
In the studio.
All right, guys, give it up for your favorite Houston rapper,
Trey The Truth.
Who's going tonight?
Look, I'm tripping.
I'm up here, and I ain't even plugging my business.
