No Jumper, coolest podcast in the world.
I'm in here as co-host today because Flacco has brought in a very esteemed guest.
Just fandom, man.
Listen, first off, what you consider yourself one of the ghosts of the 2K community?
The 2K?
Yeah.
I mean, we was there in the beginning, but I don't know if I'd give myself a goat, like, label.
I feel like the people talk for that.
Nah, because I first discovered you, I would say when Agent Zero did, like, so it was like a 24-hour or whatever shit, like playing 2K?
24 hours.
No, like, so it was you, like in like a competition with like, like, I think, I think Agent Zero was hosting the competition.
And it was, y'all was playing 2K nonstop and competing for some money.
Oh, we went to Canada for that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And like, how many subs did you have around that time?
Shit, like less than 100.
Yeah, because you just, bro, you skyrocketed since then.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I had made two different channels since then, too.
Really?
Why?
Yeah.
Because like 2K is just a whole different, that's gaming, like, you feel me?
Mm-hmm.
Like, I came back later.
but I really moved to REL, like in real life content,
you feel, me, camera, stuff like that.
What kind of stuff were you doing in the 2K world
that took a big of the following?
I was just doing comedy because like,
entertainment, because everybody was playing a game
to like drop all somebody
or who's the best basketball player.
I wasn't the best, like 2K player.
Like, you, for me, beat you,
and I'm talking mad shit.
Like, Imai, then you push y'all?
Yo, it was toxic.
It was crazy.
Word.
2K community is toxic.
Yeah, ODOD.
Like, even like, just like outside of,
you know, just like the regular, like,
the regular shit, there's always some like drama
going on or you feel me now were you ever a sweat at 2k like somebody who just took it yeah you know
who's a fiend like he know davis like yeah davis's bro cheese bro like all that dude too now dude was
nasty i ain't go a lot with the stretch big just straight dot dot wait so that's the slang term you're a
sweat if you like literally can't leave it alone you just come or like try too hard like a try hard
oh okay like you play the game for 18 hours a day you're a sweat bro you don't go outside
bro your bull stink like come on like it's different though because some dudes will legit like
like hop off 2K and do research, intense research,
on how to cheat the game, how to cheese.
So that's kind of like out of control, you know?
Well, I mean, hey, if you're going to dedicate your life to this,
you got to get in there, right?
Yeah, man.
And, like, how do you feel about the, I guess, like, 2K now?
Like, do you feel like the game is getting better?
Because you guys give Ronnie a hard time, bro.
Like, I haven't played 2K in like three years, though, bro.
Like, I don't left them alone.
Here, here.
So, like, oh, rewind a little bit, though.
When did you get into YouTube and where are you from?
I'm from the Bronx, New York, you feel it?
I'm from, 6, 7, stuff like that.
I started when I was like in 8th grade.
Like, my first video, 8th grade, 9th grade, you for me?
And I was like, low-key, World Star, I would post.
Like, before you, like, I made my own concept, world start with post something.
I download this shit, we uploaded, you feel, me, trying to be, like,
views over the thing's, like, oh, all right.
Everybody has that stage, though.
Yeah, like, that's when you first, I was a little-ass kid.
So then, like, I'm like, I know, let me do my own shit.
And I was watching, the first ever YouTube I was watching, White Boy, Seven Street.
What are my mother.
What's seven street?
Call of Duty for me.
So I started trying to post Card Duty, but when I first started, I had fucked up.
I'm thinking like, I got a talk like these niggas, you feel me?
So I'm like, hey, guys, welcome back to my YouTube.
I was getting nowhere, like, no views, nothing.
I'm like, now, fuck this shit.
I'm on my Bronx shit.
Hey, yo, you my dick was going on your.
And after that, for me, that, for me?
That's when I started taking off because I'm being me, you for me?
Of course.
Thanks.
Where did you grow up at in the Bronx, though?
167.
What was it like?
It's the Bronx, like, for me?
Right.
Who's from there?
From my side?
From 167, we hear about that all the time
and rap songs and stuff, right?
We don't really got like notable, notable, like,
the Concordial area, like, that's like it's by Hobbage,
by, like, it's the South Bronx, bro, so.
It's like by Yankee Stadium.
Okay, so who'd you grow up looking up to
in terms of rap and all that?
Music?
Yeah.
Well, back then, back then I was legit, like, a kid at?
I say, like, 50 and shit like that's a kid,
like big pun.
How old you?
Right now, I'm 24.
Oh, geez, you're an old soul then?
Because that's like, that's the shit
that I was listening to when I was a,
school and I'm fucking 14 years older than you.
How about now, though?
Who would you say is, now,
when Kyle was here,
Ka kind of stayed clear.
You feel me?
I'm near the Brock.
You try not to get mixed up in the politics.
Listen,
yo, bro,
because Kyle was like,
yo,
I don't know what the Bronx drill is.
And then Kyle was dancing to K-Flock
before that shit got released.
You feel of me?
But like,
in terms of, you know,
like, what do you listen to right now
in the Bronx?
I'll say like,
well, bro,
We bump drill, but I don't, we don't like, try to,
oh, this is my favorite rapper, no.
It's just music, niggas's playing,
and there's this Bobby, you know what I'm.
We, we, YouTubers, you feel me?
Like, I did the day we get on Twitch.
Of course, yeah, yeah.
Now, but who would you say is the king of the Bronx
or our face of the Bronx right now?
I won't even know, they're all bumping,
no, like, because every side got
niggas going on, like, everything is lit.
Like, you for me, in my personal opinion,
everybody got sides that's lit, for me?
Of course, you don't feel like you need
to be affiliated with anyone in particular?
You can fuck with everybody?
I feel like I need to be affiliated.
I'm affiliated with A&P.
That's what I'm affiliated with the time.
I'm a word.
You know that.
But you get love from everybody.
Like, it's not something where people see you as being associated with one side too much.
Hell, no.
I could walk through the whole Bronx.
Like, it's mad love for me, like the whole city.
Right.
You always were on that type of time, even when you were real young, though?
Like what?
Like, in terms of, like, you talk about doing YouTube who's such an early age that, like,
it feels like you were the kind of like the new generation.
Like, I didn't figure out that I wanted to really be going hard on YouTube
until, like, my late 20s because it wasn't around.
But nowadays,
younger kid could be born and sort of have this dream from the time that they're in junior high.
It was like in and out.
Like in and out.
Like I was never 100% until like two years ago.
Right.
Like low cap, like two, three years ago, I wasn't into like 100% everything dedication.
Right.
Yeah.
So like it would, yeah, work.
And a while only two years ago, like what was that switch that made you go hard on YouTube?
I don't know.
Like I kept doing this like, I met a lot of the guys that's lit down like we didn't met back then.
Like, you feel like me?
Like, for example, Duke, I met Duke at 50.
like I put up to his stream and shit like yo bro you got it going on hit me up after the stream
you gonna work for me like Kyle like the whole story with Kyle was crazy too um Davis too was like for me
everybody was mad small and shit I was always like the nigga trying like like playmaker like we gonna
do this I come on you do this do this do this for me shit like that of course so like you for me
for me to put the order like how you say it like for me to do all that for myself it's just different for me for
me for some reason like I wasn't like trying to do that I was trying to help somebody like
oh come on come on come on come on come on come on come on come on feel me
But then eventually I was like,
let me try this, you for me,
and I started going off too.
Not in, like, when did the RRL, sorry, the IRL,
like hood vlog start?
Two years ago.
Got you.
Yeah, he was outside.
Yo, what made you say,
yo, I'm about to go to the Bronx
or we're going to show them to make a lot of shit?
Shout out to Susan from the CEO, YouTube.
Please don't ban me on YouTube.
Yo, what did my mother?
I used to get demonetized for anything.
And I was putting this to the way.
I'm like, damn, my life is demonetized.
I go outside.
I can't record my own hood.
It's demonetize.
How the fuck is my life demonetize?
I was like, what?
So, you know what that is, right?
Like, you feel me?
Oh, yeah.
So it's annoying, so I'm like, nah, so like,
I had this like, you know, censoring certain shit,
but this is really how we live.
Like, we go outside, you know, you're gonna have a cookout
on a sidework and niggas might fight right there
at the same time, and the nigger might,
for me, a whole lot of shit going on at the same time.
So that's our life though, for me.
So I started doing that,
then I started doing like New York slang videos,
putting on people to the NY slang and shit like that.
You feel me, and then little by little,
just keep working, keep working.
And they just started taking off.
And crazy videos, man.
Here, so what was the one video you made that, like, you realize, damn, yo, I'm out of here now.
Like, this video done took me.
I still don't feel like I'm out of there, though.
You don't?
No.
Bro, you're out of here now.
Thanks, you're out of here.
Like, it's different for you now, bro.
Like, here, okay, so, like, there's, like, YouTubers right now with, let's say, 100K subscribers, right?
Yeah.
When you had, let's say, like, 50K subscribers or, you know, like, not as much you got now,
what was the one video where, like, it just got, like, just, like, so big that you was, like,
damn bro like we out of here with this shit
I just never feel like I was out of there though
here right because like it's been grinding
how many views your average upload
get these days like now like if the shit
don't get demonetized and age restrict it
right the shit hit 800
you're out of here that's out of here status right
of course not yeah
that's good that's what I'm saying I mean that's the primary
product that you're pushing but I mean
people talk about the no jumper show like that's a
popular podcast right and we get like
300k 250k per
episode, so you're doing 800 K, eh, you're out of here.
It's, because it's crude, though, is filled with dudes who are, like, matching that
and surpassing that, right?
So, you probably like, damn, you know, like, this is not enough, but, bro, that's a lot.
Or here, better question is.
I surround myself in grace.
That's what it is, bro.
You say some really spicy shit on this podcast, you're going to be at a million of upload,
guaranteed.
Just getting messy as fuck.
That's all you got to do.
Nah, man, you'll listen, bro.
Like, Phantom has been involved with that stuff enough, man, feeling me, man.
But also, too, now back in a little bit, right?
So you're, I guess the highest, like the hood vlog that I've seen got like one million of you, right?
Now, like, you got demonetized a lot in on YouTube.
Were you ever afraid of getting your account taken?
Nah, they never took my account.
How many strikes, like, were your highest strikes, like, one or two?
One.
Yeah, but they never took my account.
What was the strike for?
I forgot.
Matter of fact, I think it was because a little bro started fighting each other playing around this shit.
But they young, though.
You feel of me?
So I guess, you know, you can't show kids getting it on this shit.
But that's regular to us, though.
Like, it's weird to, it's kind of like, what's regular to me is not regular to YouTube
or the world.
Right.
You get what I'm saying?
Yeah, you're like, bro.
I remember back in the day when I was in real quick, I'm walking to the fucking corner store
or some shit, and I see a big-ass crowd of high school kids or whatever, like young, though,
like 14, 15-year-olds.
And I'm not even really thinking anything about it.
But then I noticed the crowd just break out.
And this one girl comes sprinting towards me, runs right past me.
And then I just see.
a 15-year-old girl like laid out in the street.
Like they had really been fighting and this girl had got knocked out.
And I'm just standing there on the street like, holy shit, this just happened outside my apartment.
Like, you know?
But that's regular though.
Exactly.
You see what I'm saying?
It wasn't regular to me.
It's not regular to the world so that we get penalized from showing shit like that.
Not saying I was showing shit like that though, but you know.
No, but back in the day I used to put whatever.
If there was a fight, I would put it in the vlog.
If there was whatever, I got a strike on YouTube because my girl was rubbing my boner through my shorts one time.
and I filmed that.
Man, I used to just be going crazy on there.
I got 5 million views off doing asset in the woods.
Yeah.
He made hell of crazy shit like that.
When I first started on YouTube,
I'd had a bunch of bullshit like that,
all the threesome vlogs and the acid and everything.
He's a movie.
He was a wild boy back then.
You know, even his life right now is a movie, man.
Yeah.
Now, also, too, like you feel like YouTube police,
I guess, like black content creators more?
I had a theory back in the day
that if I had white wool,
was behind me, I get more views.
Of course.
Like, whatever other.
But, um, I don't know.
I know, uh, Twitch.
I feel like they be on some shit, like, low-key.
I don't know, like, to beyond.
I just be feeling like, but it's just the way,
people don't accept, like, how we came up and how we are,
and I just hate that shit.
Like, I don't pinpoint everything somebody else do.
Why the fuck y'all point in me and shit?
Like, I hate that shit.
Right.
Yo, and the Twitch bands are getting out of control.
Have you guys ever thought, yo, like, bro?
I never got to be a game.
No, right?
Yeah, right.
But they've been in a lot of other niggas, right?
But have you ever thought, damn, yo, like, we got enough power?
Me, Aiden Rawls, like, A&P, like, yo, we can, like...
You think we got enough power?
Yo.
Twitch don't get a fuck about nothing.
Exactly.
If you guys, no, if you guys, like, rally other content creators and do, like, a Twitch band
just like did for, like, the TikTok, I'm telling you, bro, you're going to change some shit.
They're going to be like, bye.
Have fun.
I don't know.
We're pushing Pokemon sometimes, bro.
I don't even think they want us on the platform sometimes, bro.
Like, from what I see before, like, I don't know.
People would be very reserved.
on speaking about shit like this
because they don't want to get banned
on Twitch and shit like that.
Yeah.
I'm not a Twitch streamer, you feel me?
People want to put me in that little bubble now
because I'm putting 10,000 lives, 12,000 live
and shit like that shit, I ain't going to lie.
But...
Out of here.
I'm like, I'm YouTube first.
You feel what I'm really YouTuber.
Like, that's really what I like to do, you feel me?
So I'm never going to really be like,
oh, Twitch is my bread and butter.
That's what I do, you know what I do.
You from me?
But from what I see, I'll be seeing
like the white streamers do some shit
and they don't be getting penalized.
bro, word with my mother.
But then I see like a black streamer do some shit.
Just anybody with a little bit of color do some shit
It's a little iffy.
Goodbye.
It's over.
Is that Twitch bag, though, like better than the current YouTube bag?
Hell no.
Not for me, though.
I'm not a Twitch.
If I take that lane series, it probably would be.
But, nah, YouTube is a...
YouTube bag.
Million views and upload?
I mean, that's a lot of fucking gifted subs right there, you know?
You'll be real.
Like, what was your biggest check?
Nah, you heavy, right?
Come on, man.
Yo, come on, man.
I need that.
Come on, man.
Your biggest YouTube.
Listen, because, yo,
Phantom get money, man.
So I know you get.
Come on, what's the biggest check, man?
For all the, you know, Dominican, you know, birds are watching, man.
Like,
Yo, he went crazy, right?
He's going crazy.
He just slips little things in there.
I'll tell you, man.
No, I go, for me just, you know, it was the end word.
Like, you from me up there.
Have you ever made six figures a month?
Woo.
Wow.
What are you doing with your money?
We try to, well, I'm trying to, like, invest my money.
Like, I go back to my country and D.R.
and just try to invest it.
You were born there?
No, I'm born in New York.
Okay.
Yeah.
Nice.
Yo, he took the Dominican shit seriously, man.
Like, even with the, I think two days ago, let's talk about it.
Woo.
Duke Dennis was on his live stream, and he, you know, he put the Dominican flag on.
Now, but he ain't do nothing.
Yeah, but Agent Zero had, like, had to come in because bro was, you know, had that
little lighter and he was, you know, like, playing around with it too much, you know.
Dude my man's, you feel me, not the A&P.
Now, I don't think, no, he don't, like,
niggas just didn't understand what's going on.
You feel like, I just feel like, what are you from?
Like here?
North Dakota.
Oh, that's American, though.
I feel like, I feel like, I feel like, I don't really, I don't know.
Oh, no, I'm not, I'm like, I'm not really, but he's from Africa.
So, like, if I was, you feel like, that's heavy, like, that's OD, like,
I don't think, he wasn't on that type of time.
They burned the Dominican flag?
No, no, no, no, not.
You said something about a lighter, I'm like, what?
Nah, no, no.
It's like, it's like, out of doing it too, right?
But it's like, if I took one of your shit
and I'm out of the burn this shit, like,
he's not trying to dis-you, you for me,
but he just didn't know what he just grabbed type of shit.
That's what it was.
It wasn't anything crazy, though.
You know what I think about the Dominican Republic,
I think about it being the place
where all the girls go to get their ass done.
I love who's gonna say that.
Is there stupid amounts of booty everywhere you go out there?
It's unlimited eyes, bro.
We gotta go.
Bro, let's do it.
Now also, too, it's like people,
You know, like, there's this thing about, like,
Dominicans, right?
Like, do you consider yourself a person of color, African-American?
Well, not American, but black, or...
I think I got black in me, but I'm Dominican.
Gotcha.
So, like, that's different, right?
Like, because you look like you were, like, a black guy, right?
What?
You look black, right?
But, like, what's that?
Like, you know, like...
How you look black?
The skin tone.
Like, the skin tone, like, the features, the jawline, right?
So, if somebody asks you, are you black or are you...
It's black in me.
Like, I can't be like, oh, I'm only black and I'm curving my whole, everything else.
Like, Dominicans is three races and one, bro.
Ah.
It's be mixed, bro.
So it's like, it's all in one.
It's like, you can't...
I feel like when people do that and they say that shit, I got a friend that he'll be on
his shit all the time.
He always be having these conversations on the block and shit.
Yeah.
He'd be saying, fiendom, you got one percent, one drop of black blood and you black, bro.
So I tell him like, so they listen to the white man, because I remember they said that
one dropper was made by the white man.
So you listen to that rule, he was like, it's our panic.
I'm like, you know what I don't feel like it's just one thing.
That feels like such an attempt to simplify things and be like, oh, like, no, you can't be black and white.
You just have to choose one.
It's like, no, the reality is that you, yeah, come on.
Of course.
It's no longer like white, black Mexican.
Like, that's not a thing no more.
It's mad of this shit going on now.
Of course.
And 100 years from now, it's going to be so much more extreme where it's going to be even harder to find somebody who's not missed.
So, like, if I was to, like, just pick one, that's OD.
I'm just curving everything else, too.
Of course.
You got to pick all of it together.
So black and me, Dominican, all that, like, have you.
Nah, right?
So, like, you say Dominican are, like, three races.
What is it?
So it's black and white and indigenous.
Got you.
Gotcha, and they're Americans.
Daino.
Got you.
And, like, correct me, like, if I'm wrong, I think, like, the Puerto Ricans are, like, the
Boequas, right?
Yeah, Borikas.
What?
Hibaro.
What?
Hi, Javar.
Boreka.
I told by way
I was just at the Puerto Rican Day parade
Kind of to the Puerto Rican Day Parade

Like, for real, that big bring out the big cams, you feel me?
I got the big cam over there.
That's those are the big cans, $5,000 of cans, bro.
Oh, really?
So you're all about the quality?
Yeah, like, I want to drop good shit.
I want you to watch my shit be like, nah, run that shit back.
That shit was crazy.
Right.
Like, I want to drop good shit, bro.
You feel me?
I was watching the one about you smoking cigarettes and your friends.
And I'm just like, this is not even really like, to me, that's so normal.
I'm used to people blowing smoke in my face all the time.
I'm like, damn, he's coming from a different.
from perspective. This is interesting.
And Gideon's like fucking horrified by it.
He's like, oh, now.
Yeah, shout like Kayson.
I was, my son, Kaye, I was, my son, Kaye's
out here from LA. I was like, yo, what you
do if I just smoke bogies in your face right now?
He was like, okay?
Yeah. It's like regular out here. I didn't know that.
This office is regular.
Yeah, I did not know that.
Unfortunately, this scumbag right here was blowing
fucking Marlboro smoking my face just yesterday.
Wait, I thought you all banned cigarette smoke in the office.
I don't know that we ever did that,
although it's probably not that bad an idea, you know.
That's how it is like in every other office on earth pretty much.
No, but have you ever, like, like taking a prank too far?
No, I don't think so, huh?
No.
Like, so, you know, like, for example, right?
Like, there are certain, like, shit you can do, right?
So, like, what's, like, the one prank that you did where you was like, ah, I probably shouldn't have done this?
Never.
No?
I'd just be knowing the lines with the cross, what the cross?
Like, I feel me?
See, I'm a line-stepper.
Like whenever I'm watching like somebody like Jideon do a prank.
He be wilding.
That's my son.
I always think to myself, bro, if I was him, I don't think I would know where to draw the line.
I'm pretty sure I would just take it way too far at a certain point because I would get so wrapped up in the character.
I don't know.
He wilded out in the UK recently.
Yeah, shout to the UK.
I can't wait to go out there.
I ain't gonna lie.
Yeah.
Jeter might be bare from the UK now, right?
Nah, he's good money.
You gotta be careful because remember when Logan Paul went to Japan and he was throwing
pokey balls at random Japanese people?
They got on his ass for that.
No, he got canceled, right?
Because he went to, like, the forest in Japan.
He did do the dead body thing.
Oh, he did do that shit.
But they were also really pissed off
because he was doing all this fuck shit
with all the Japanese people before that,
and then they started looking at that afterwards
and be like, damn, how are you throwing a pokey ball
with this random lady?
Nah, definitely bad.
Are you ever afraid of, like, potentially being canceled
that you grow?
No, because I feel like cancellation
ain't even real.
Really?
Yeah, how you get canceled?
Like, niggers that try to cancel you,
They don't even fuck with you already.
So y'all are canceling shit
because people who fuck with you,
they fuck with you.
Yo, that's interesting, like,
like, context, right?
It's kind of like Boosy,
how, like, when Boossey say a bunch of wild shit,
but it's like, people can be mad at Boosy,
but Boosey audience don't give a fuck.
Yeah, it's like, yo, bro, like,
it depends the type of person
at how you carry yourself.
Like, if I eat only off brands and shit like that,
hey guys, how's it going, y'all.
Yeah, like, I'm me, like,
and you always got to be you because, like,
you can't get cancer when you, you.
No, but look at Cardi B.
She's on Pepsi.
Yeah.
And she is out here doing drill music with fucking K-Flock
and talking all super reckless and stuff.
I don't think that the age where you have to be super whitewashed and clean cut to get a brand deal,
I'm pretty sure that that's on the way out.
She's definitely safe, though, because she, you know, has the whole, like Joe Biden thing going on.
No, Bernie Sanders.
I mean, yeah, she does a lot of safe stuff, but then she also does a lot of wild stuff, don't you think?
Yeah, definitely, man.
Wait, but, but, like, with the fame, though, right?
So, like, you've gotten a lot of attention.
Like, what's the worst and best thing about being, like, famous now?
I think, um, the best thing is a love, right?
When you get mad love.
Like, that's fine.
I like that shit.
For me, like, it's good to be, like, you know, people give you your flowers and shit.
You, for me, like, for the shit that you do, for me.
The worst thing, I would say, like, you can't go, I can't do the shit that I always
been doing.
I still be trying to do them anyway, but it's just, like, when I go outside on the block, like,
it's crazy, right?
Really?
Yeah, like, my hood is cool, though, because everybody knows me.
I've been there forever.
Of course.
But when I go, like, anywhere else, it's like, it's mad people.
Like, I'm like, damn.
You post up on the block at night, just sort of chill in the neighborhood.
That's one of my favorite things about New York is how it's like a fucking show out
on the block and a lot of neighborhoods at night.
It's amazing.
Like, I got the music, got the Trucchero in my car.
You know, my Honda Accord going crazy.
Big-ass speakers, like 10 bands and speakers going crazy.
Damn, so you didn't upgrade the Hondo Accord yet?
Nah, so, like, interior-wise, yeah.
I took out of all the seats recently, too.
I wanted to do some lights on.
You didn't think about getting a new car.
You're just like, I got an M4 too.
I want to get some other shit too soon.
But I'm really like the, what's that shit word?
Investing.
Like, I don't let go with my roots.
Like, where I came from, I'm always going to jack my shit.
I'm always going to represent you, for me.
So that's what, like, I'm never going to sell my accord, none of that.
Like, I always go to, um, that there was and shit too.
Like, people know.
Now, like, being from the trenches and then having money now, when do your parents realize,
oh, shit?
Like, this thing got some money now.
My mom don't give a fuck, bro.
No?
Six figures a month, she better give a fuck.
My mom don't understand.
She had to have that epiphany like, yo, this, like he's doing something different now.
Like, he's, you know, bring it in a different level of income now.
She don't get it.
Shout out to my mom, though.
She loved me.
I love her too.
But she dead ass don't get you to at all.
Like, she don't understand it.
But she knows what a job is and she knows what money is.
So it's like, doesn't she kind of figure out of a certain point?
Like, oh, he's making a lot of money.
My mom and my pops did eight years in school, like Ph.D. people.
You for me?
Yeah.
For me, my pops.
My father live in Diyadh, though, but they don't, like, you feel me, they want me to go to school and shit.
And it's not happening.
When did you make that decision, though?
You finished high school?
Yeah, I finished high school.
But I did, like, half a semester in college, and I just dropped out.
You just got into it?
I was pop, bro.
I didn't have no money, gang.
I remember I was going to school.
I didn't have money for the books.
And then FAFSA, how you say that shit?
FASFA.
They give money out to the students and shit.
They gave me my shit at the end of the semester, though.
So the first half, I can't even work because it was like,
I was working at Delhi, cutting up sandwiches and shit, like, all that.
So, like, I can't even, I can't get money and go to school.
It was just not, like, for me, it was crazy how much.
I was like, damn.
So I had a little iPhone 5C, and I would go to school,
and the textbooks was like $400.
We can't afford it yet.
You feel me, I had to wait for that fast-check.
That was coming at the end of the semester, which I don't know why they did that.
So I pull up, I take pictures of my shit for me, the little homework.
I go home, I do my homework.
Right.
One day I get on the train.
The phone break.
Wow.
Bro, it only cost $80 to fix it.
I did not have 80 cash.
Nobody in my family had 80 cash to fix that phone again.
What do my mother?
So I'm like, nah, I got to wait somebody to get paid or some shit.
I got to bust a maneuver, whatever I got to do.
Like, for me, it was before YouTube.
But, like, to get my shit for YouTube, I would sell fake clothes and shit.
To get my shell, sell like little pearly bee chains, get my shit up to get my, my hardware.
You feel me, shit I need it.
Like, recording, whatever.
Point is, I didn't have the money.
And then that, like, turn it to three, four days.
I was like, you know what, bro?
Let me try this YouTube shit all the way.
Let me just fuck it, my nigga.
Like, for me, it just dropped out.
And next month, I made like two beers for me.
Then that turned into like five.
I said, no, hold on.
I showed him about seven beers one time.
She said, I don't give a fuck.
Go to school, nitty.
So I was like, ah, man.
No, you know, you got to stick with it because think about what the other side of this equation is.
There's a rapper named Frenchie who used to be with Wakaflaq and everything.
back in the day, south side of Jamaica, Queens.
And I just seen it in the news that he is potentially facing 25 years
because they went to run up in a drug, in a weed house, to rob it.
And it ended up being the wrong house.
And they ended up pistol whipping the fucking autistic kid in front of his parents
who was living in the crib.
He's facing 25 years for it.
I say all that, just to say, the rap shit is very tricky and difficult to pull off.
realistically, you as a YouTuber,
if you just keep making good content
and do your thing and change over time
and, like, you know, try new things and everything,
I mean, you're probably making more money
right now than 95% of rappers
will ever make.
Than people, 95% of people will ever make.
And you don't got a pistol whipping autistic kids.
Yeah, I'm a YouTube, that I always say this shit,
fuck that shit.
I ain't dealing with that shit.
I ain't going to allow.
I found my lane.
I'm staying here again.
Of course.
What sort of?
What tools do you think made you successful on YouTube?
Or was it just luck?
Hell no
I mean I think luck does play a part in it though
Like some degree of it
But I don't think it's just like
Bro we work hard for this shit
I mean you didn't choose to be born
With such a smooth demeanor right
Pause
But you know like
You're just born the way that you are
Like Flacco didn't choose to be born
With fucking massive BBL style thighs
You know
It's just half it bro
It's got different
It's going crazy
Yeah not right
But like yo
I think it's constant
creators, like, we're just wired differently, like, in terms of, like, just, like, the consistencies,
like being, you know, just, like, just, like, just hella persistent, right?
I feel like you got to be just a little bit off and crazy to even attempt this.
I think you, too.
Everybody that do shit like this got to be a little son-out, for me, like, with work,
I'm obsessed with it, bro.
Like, you got to be obsessed with this shit, bro.
To make this shit happen, like, to have all this shit going on.
You got to, what, the full, five cameras going on, people over.
You got to be obsessed with this shit.
You can't be no.
I'm going to do this show on Saturdays only, no.
Come on.
You gotta be willing to fail for a significant period of time before you actually really
have something going for yourself.
Some people just-
I bet I'd made a tweet like that yesterday.
Some people crack off from the beginning, but it's very rare.
You know, most people gotta really grind for years to build something, you know?
To say it out.
Nah, yo, Phantom has the best Twitter, bro.
Like, it's just mad, like, motivational, like deep tweets, bro.
I know, I hear you on there.
Your fatal Twitter go crazy.
I was like, you're gonna fuck up a few times before you get it right.
That's life.
Like, real shit, though.
Like, you really gonna fuck up a couple times before you get it right.
get it right. That's thanks.
Nah, have you ever, like, lost your passion for this shit?
Lost my passion?
Yeah.
Nah, I like this shit a lot, bro.
Yeah.
I'm not going to lie.
Like, I don't think.
Yeah.
Nah, but, like, grinding, making videos day and day out for the last, like.
I mean, not, sometimes I hop into my little mental battles, though.
I'll tell you that much.
Yeah.
That shit, regular shit, you feel?
I feel like, everybody go through their own shit.
You know what I mean?
That shit be throwing me off.
I already followed you.
I didn't even realize.
All right.
Yeah, I forgot.
See?
Whoops.
Now, but speak on that, though, man.
Because you took like a hiatus, right?
Like six months.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, four.
Yeah, right?
So, like, speak on that.
Like, what led to you taking that hiatus?
Because I'll be, like, just, I'll be up here fighting, bro.
Like, it'd be bad sometimes.
You're fighting demons?
Yo, stop playing, bro.
Nah, that's crazy, man.
But, like, it'd be crazy, though.
Like, it'd be, it'd be, it'd be, I'd be up here sometimes, bro.
It just, I think it's, like, I be getting caught up with, like, I begin sometimes
survive as guilt, too.
Like, it's weird.
And that's why I be, I'd be going to the Bronx so much, too.
Like I'm always there, like two weeks there, maybe do two weeks ATL, come out here, come out here,
but go back to the Bronx, ah, whatever.
I can't, like, leave it alone for some reason because I just be seeing shit.
And then, you feel me, it'd be so much death going on and violence and shit should be crazy.
And I just be like, damn, like, why I'm me, et cetera.
You feel me?
Sometimes I'll be on that bush.
I'll be like, nah, what's going on?
Like, you feel on me?
Like, it'd be fucking with me, you feel me?
So I might just disappear for a little bit, come back.
But I always disappear, come back and everything be fine, though.
I'll be thinking that my shit going to disappear too.
I'll be like that.
No, because you left for like four months and like came back and you still went crazy.
Yeah, I don't want to.
I thought it'll be done.
I'm like, it's over.
Most people do that shit is goodbye, bro.
It's done for.
Where'd you go?
D.R.
D.
And how long were you like there for?
Month and a half straight.
Then I went to Miami and my cousin.
What were you doing in D.R.?
Just chilling?
Looking at cement blocks all day.
Like asses or just actual?
No, like cement.
Like, I was just in a room just looking at shit.
I thought you were talking about some fugazi fake booties out there made a cement, no?
No.
I'm talking about that ass.
Cement blocks?
Yeah, like, just like, I'm from Herrera,
Chauterreira City in D.R.
Like, it's just, it's the churches of the D.R.
Like, OD, and I just go on top
and just like, sun gaze all day, bro.
Really?
Yeah, just shit there.
Thinking about what?
Just what you want to be doing with your life?
Nah, I don't know.
I don't think I was thinking.
I was just there, though.
I was like with me.
You got me, breathing and shit?
Let me just taking in, like, life and shit.
I'm scared to do that, man.
I'm scared the cloud's gonna run away from me
if I fucking take it.
So I went away for a while.
He told you four months.
That's crazy.
That's crazy for a YouTube.
That's a big deal.
It came back,
million back to back.
I said,
what the fuck?
No,
because,
like,
there was a tweet,
you know,
like where I think it's like,
before your hiatus,
right?
Like,
somebody asked you,
like,
are you leaving,
like,
the AMPLs?
And you say yes, right?
I said, yeah.
No,
you said,
like,
are you coming back?
And just something like,
never, right?
So, like,
at that point,
like, when you left,
was it like,
yo, like,
I'm done with this YouTube shit for good.
I don't know.
I just be going through some bullshit sometimes.
You feel me?
It just be bullshit, bro.
But nigger, A&P for life.
You bugging it.
Nah, facts, man.
No, but also, too, it's like survivor guilt?
Now, is your survivor guilt like, yo, like, you know, like, I'm on.
I'm rich right now, but I'm not rich enough to take care of all you niggas.
Exactly.
Like, I'm not there yet.
Like, you be saying I'm up.
I'll be looking at you like, what?
What are you up?
Like, hell no.
Like, I'm looking like, there's so much shit I gotta do this.
I'm so far away.
I feel like there's so much drawing left.
But you look at the other guys in the N.P.
And you feel like they're up?
Well, I don't know.
I don't really look at them like if they, I just look at me.
Right.
But I'm saying like, okay, to put it in perspective,
Kai's interview has like almost the most views.
Not the most views, but it's like a million views.
That's like one of the biggest interviews we did this year.
I mean, that kind of says a lot.
That says a lot about the fact that he's more lit than a lot of rappers.
True, true.
And I would say the same thing about you.
Yeah.
Naturally, yeah.
We tend to be more lit than rappers, though.
And your YouTubers, so the fan base are YouTubers.
Those are the exact people who are going to want to watch.
A lot of, like, Little Baby's super popular,
but what percentage of Little Baby's fans
you think ever watched The Little Baby interview?
Like, probably like 1, 2%,
maybe 5%.
Yeah, because like, there's so many more people
that will just want to listen to the music
rather than really trying to learn about the person in depth, you know?
So, I mean, I'm not, I'm sure he has interviews that have millions of views,
but there's way more people that are just listening to music, you know?
Whereas like with you, if they're a fan of you, they're watching YouTube.
Of course they would want to watch an interview, you know?
No, so what's your definition of up?
Like, what do you consider, like, if you get to this point, you've made it?
Like, your family good or your friends is, like, low-key good.
Like, you don't got to babysit niggas, though, you know what I'm saying?
You got to make sure, like, you for me, at least you all for the hand, like, yo, bro, let's do this.
I mean, you do this for me, but it's just.
Of course.
Yeah, right.
Like, would that be you getting, I guess, not getting out of you?
but transitioning from YouTube to, let's say, movies or, you know, comedy.
Like, what do you try to do outside of the same?
I like music, but I'll never take that shit, though.
Like, the way they do it, like on tour and shit, no, I'm just going to probably drop
a, for me.
Yeah, that's it, but I'm not going on tour.
You got to, though, because, yo, I don't see that a lot of YouTubers, you know, especially
YouTube, like, you got like a, you know, like a rapper vibe.
You feel like that, like that, like, machismo, masculine type of frame, you know?
So, like, right, like, right?
You're like, I go out.
Yeah, you look at a gangster.
Come on, man.
I feel like I'm bad childhood.
I play around all that.
Like, I don't know.
Like, I don't know.
Nah, yo, I ain't going to cap, man.
Like, I've seen, like, a couple of stream of you just going off on somebody.
You feel what I?
Ooh.
No, again, I try to go back to the firework I stream, right?
But, you know, just like, yo, you know.
No, that's nothing.
That's the rose, bro.
That shit don't call.
Yeah.
Yeah, right?
But you, like, when you, like, want to, like, sound like, you're madder, right?
Like, he comes off as, like, yo, he's body.
You feel me?
And he gangsters.
So you can definitely do, like, the rap shit.
I would never want to be a gangster rapper
What the fuck have no
Is you crazy?
If I was a rap, I'd be a pop star or some shit
Like I start sticking on that bitch or some shit
I don't know I ain't doing no gangster shit
That's harder
It's easier to just take your feet
Do the little dance that they'd be doing
Get sturdy with it and just talk about your options
Yo, I can't get sturdy man
Pop star's hard
That's don't even pay well do it like
Nah
That nigga like fuck that shit too
Like on top of that shit
I feel like
Rapin is like
Bro I'm a YouTuber bro
You ever think about getting a face tattoo
Before year I was gonna get like five
of the bitches back then.
Really?
It was a different time though.
Like six-nine there and shit, get like the...
Now I was gonna get some shit right here.
It was a while ago.
It was like four years ago type of shit.
But you decided not to?
Yeah, we was wilder.
You were?
We was wilder.
No, you're just been saying wildly.
Okay, now back to the fireworks stuff though.
Who idea was it to have a fireworks show?
Yo, bro, let me keep up with you up with y'all.
Let me tell ya what you're going on, because I know y'all are you.
Everybody's been asking this question and shit.
I've been doing this firework show.
since I was like 10 years old.
I've been into fire for some reason.
I don't know if that shit crazy or some shit,
but I all been burning shit.
I don't even a lot.
So, matter of fact, you're so real.
Back then when I first started this shit,
when I had a little 240 peak quality camera and shit,
I will build little cardboard boxes and just burning bitches.
Like, yo, this shit crazy.
I'm a little-ass kid and shit, you for me?
Doing dumb shit in D.R.
So long-long-so we should we fast-forward.
So more, every July 4th,
I'm blowing shit up in the Bronx.
I'm spinning the whole Bronx.
We're doing, like, I know people in every hood and shit.
So we're doing shit everywhere.
You feel like,
It's a tradition.
Yeah, like it's five.
New York is crazy for the fourth.
Yeah, shit.
O-D-5.
So then, um,
Kha's from New York, too.
So that me and Kahn,
we, in the old A&P crib,
we're going out of with the jailblacks.
Thaw-thum, blah,
throwing them bitches, right?
All right, we throw, we, we throw,
and we throw.
And then I start throwing fireworks and shit.
A little, little firecracket,
a little M, whatever the fuck,
M-5 maybe, whatever that shit.
Start throwing them bitches.
So let's start going there.
All this other shit going on were like,
like, David, dude,
Everybody trying to get it.
It was just always me and Kyle.
Because me and Kyle really the bugouts of A&P, like just doing the dumb shit.
You feel me?
So then it was not really like an idea.
It just kind of just evolved into what it is now.
You get what I'm saying?
Duke came through with his people and they joined it, basically.
Then Dave started throwing them bitches too.
You feel me?
Just natural, like everybody kind of just, you know?
It wasn't like, it was not.
It was just free.
So you think speed is stealing your style by lighting the
Pikachu?
Yeah, he's saying that.
Yeah, he's nasty, man.
No, no, no, no, no, let's talk about it, though.
Niggas is commenting under the Twitter.
It was like, yeah, I take it's speech.
I'm like, nigga, what the fuck y'all talk about?
I've been doing this, y'all?
Like, we've been doing this, bro, for real, like, since back then, but people don't,
everybody got different fan bases, bro, so you're going to see what you want to see, you feel me?
And you can't let the comments get to your head either.
You can't let people, like, get in here.
You're crazy.
No, bro, that's a fact, man, because even like when I first got on, right?
You know, I read every comment.
I know you did.
Everything, you feel me?
I'm talking about my critiques.
Now, bro, like, bro, I'm after God.
I don't even read comments no more, bro.
I do.
I read my comments, but I know how to just like-
Guys, I'm hearing you.
I read comments, but niggas be trolling or,
and I know how to differentiate or troll than like,
somebody that's really just showing love.
Like, you from me?
That's all I know I'm still in love with this shit
because last night we did a No Jumper show
and I'm fucking eagerly reading the comments afterwards.
I wake up this morning, I'm going to take my morning shit.
I'm like, ooh, I get to read like all the comments
from the night before.
Yeah, that's fine, right?
You want people to see what they think about the shit you drop.
It's good shit, you dropping good shit.
For me?
Yeah.
Like for me, though, my shit was obsessive.
Like, I used to read everything, you feel?
I'm talking about, like, Instagram comments, even like the pictures.
You can definitely take it to an extreme by just, like, reading everything that everybody's
saying about you to the point where you don't have to read everything, you know?
I read a couple hundred comments, whatever.
I'm probably good, right?
Ignorice is bliss, bro.
No, I mean, like for me, like now, right, like, I definitely read some comments,
But not like, you know, like, I've always like like been somebody who wanted to empower the fans, you know.
And that's why the Reddit started, what started.
But, you know, right?
But back to you, though, man.
Sorry about the no-jumper Reddit and even.
And beef, man.
Back to you, man.
Now, you've been on YouTube for a minute, right?
Have you got any YouTube ops yet?
No.
Like YouTubers who make videos about you, you know, like, you know, like hating on you and shit on you?
I already pissed people love, bro.
I ain't going to lie.
Like, that's not really like my thing.
Like, that's not, people don't, I don't be getting, like, there'll be no static with nobody.
Like, I don't know what I see recently or not.
When's the last time you had a fade?
A who?
A fate?
A fight?
Yeah.
Y'all be saying that shit in LA like, yo, we feel a squabble.
Squabble.
You guys call it a fair one.
I don't say a fair one.
That's over.
Let's get it on.
High school probably, you should.
Oh, for real?
It's been that long.
Lock the deuceus.
Yeah.
We're gonna be doing that no more.
We're gonna be picking up the camera here and record, bro.
What's heading that, bro.
Not no more?
Nah, not no more.
You fuck with any white YouTubers?
Nah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, no, hell yeah.
White boy said when she was the first,
what I just said earlier.
Colgisna, you know.
Shout out Logan Paul.
You feel me doing his thing.
Baylon.
Shit, who else?
Aiden Roll.
Shout to my boy Aiden.
Shout to the whole Aiden, you feel me?
You watch somebody like Logan Paul
and like even though he's living
a totally different life and his content's totally different,
do you still take a little bit of inspiration from it
in terms of just.
Yeah, bro.
Ideas.
No, he went crazy, bro.
Like, he, like, people do, like, yo, bro, come on, bro.
We got to give it up for him, bro.
Like, no funny shit.
Like, he definitely did what he did.
He got the podcast going on there, too.
You feel me?
Like, for me, they got that shit going on, too.
They definitely doing their thing.
I watch everybody that, like, I fuck with.
I don't just hop on, like, trends, though.
I ain't going to lie.
Not.
Yo, so back then when, let's say Logan, Paul, Jake Paul, and Rice Gump and him were going at it.
Club Gang.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Remember that shit.
So which team were you on?
Because Katsana said he was, you know, like, with dumb.
But I was definitely like, Rice Gum was my nigga.
He felt what I mean?
Like.
Wait, who did it was Rice Gun versus who?
Logan Paul and Team 10 and them?
It was Team 10 versus Cloud Gang.
Yeah.
And Rice Game or Rice Gum was very much associated with Banks and the Cloud Gang at the time.
Yeah, nah, I ain't going to lie.
I ain't going to lie.
Team 10 was like a bunch of 12-year-olds.
Like, fucking.
I didn't know nobody from Team 10 except for Jake.
Yeah, Jake Paul's fan base at that time was so.
Yo, people forget, he used to make videos that straight up were for 12-year-olds.
Yeah, I wasn't never into that.
Yeah, I wasn't never into that.
That's why, and Logan Locke used to was doing that too, but then he shifted.
I love that shift.
I love the shift because people think you can't make the shift.
Yes, you can.
It's very hard to go from a kid audience to a grown audience.
And that's why it's funny that Jake Paul was making those kind of videos where he's like
basically making Sesame Street vlogs.
And then two years later, it's like surprising my friend with his favorite porn star.
And it's like, bro, this shit got real explicit, real quick.
I feel like that guy hit up Disney Channel, or was he just like his eye?
He got kicked off Disney Channel when that whole thing happened where the cops kept coming to his house out here.
And he got on top of the fucking, he got on top of the news van.
And he was, like, dancing around and shit.
And they would be doing all kinds of fucked up shit in the backyard.
And I think around that time was when he lost the Disney Channel thing.
You like, know what's crazy though?
If A&P was doing what Lesser, like, Team 10 of them was doing, like back then now,
you all would have definitely gotten like band off YouTube right because bro team bro they was
wilder I'm talking about what you mean what you mean like dancing on fucking new vans and
shit like like if you guys would know bro but we didn't have to pre-saint on a block before coming ATL like
yo y'allel like you y'allel because the neighbors didn't know other house they was right they was doing
crazy shit I ain't gonna a lot of neighbors would walk down a driveway private property right you feel me
I remember when I first opened the door the first ever time they kept asking me like who like like they
They believe that I lived it.
I was like, nah, this is crazy.
So now that you're in Atlanta, though, and seeing what happened to Young Thug and everything,
are you worried about the AMP, Rico?
You don't think it could happen?
Hell no.
You keep your nose clean.
I don't know, man.
Don't be pushing any bricks.
Don't order any hits.
Hell no, I don't know.
Come on, bro.
We edit videos, so you think it's pro, you feel me.
That's good.
This is no jumping, though.
We got to push those buttons.
But do you love Atlanta?
Like, what's it like?
It's a lot more country, right?
I don't like to do too much.
I ain't going to lie.
Really?
Not enough energy?
I just don't know the right people
I feel like from ATL yet for real.
I'm learning as I go.
You feel me?
Like every place is lit.
You got to know the right people and shit.
We went, I'm not from there, bro.
I'm from the north side.
New York.
So we go with, I'm going to the south and shit.
And it's just, you know, you gotta just
a little by a little.
I've been meeting people and shit,
but it takes time.
You feel me?
Sometimes people will tell me like,
oh, I'm not from America
and I went to New York City.
It was amazing to see you in America.
And I'm just thinking,
New York City is,
not like the rest of America at all.
Like, you know, you saw an amazing place, but that's not, like, if you were to go to
the rest of the country, you would realize that New York has its own fucking energy.
Like, definitely for sure, it's weird going from that to somewhere else where everything's
not as fucking...
It's very suburban, too.
I'm not into, like, we have to drive everywhere.
Even out here, too, you got to kind of have to drive everywhere, too.
I could walk somewhere in New York.
You can't do that in, like, here from what I see, Miami to kind of in a way.
walk no way. Atlanta, you definitely can't walk no way. Like a 30 minute drive is like regular.
Like 30 minute drive to me. I'm like, 30 minutes. What the fuck?
How long you been out there though? It used to be like that.
Yeah. The damn near been like almost two years and shit. Wow. And it's still kind of not
that great for you. But is it good for content. Content wise, yeah, I fuck with it. Locke.
The city's like, there's like, there's not an NPCs running around. Dead ass. Like his man
NPCs is there. Right. And so when Kai is like doing a video with Tiana Trump, are you kind of like
texting him like, yo, let me smash as well.
I ain't going to lie, I went to you. She came to the
Crembo. I tell you
we was all at the stake. It's like, yo,
like, what's going on? Like,
she was crazy. Like, she put up in a portion, all that.
She's cool, though. She's dumbed cudo.
That's cool. She got rid of the Mini Cooper. Remember she used to have
that shit? She had a Mini Cooper? There was a video of her
fighting with some girl on the side of the road and she's
driving to Mini Cooper. And I see him. My son, Kai did that
though, yeah. My son, that's fine. That content
was totally. He tried to act like
I was crazy, though.
Kyle
has publicly
like always
like kind of like
played it
none
like nothing
happened
right
he's fully said it
while we're doing
yeah
yeah
yeah
yeah
right because during
interview
like he actually
like slipped up
and said
yeah
bro that head was fire
right
so
right so Kai
you know
so we know
he you know
smash butt
but
but again
like
be honest
though
were there any like
talks about a train
on like
Teana Trump
the whole house
yo listen
game
be real man
Listen, yeah, she's dumb cool, gang.
That's a yes.
If there was a trainer, would you be scared to go after Duke Dennis?
Nigger, I'm first-in-law.
I'm sorry.
I am not going after Duke Dennis, man.
Wow, you think you got a thing on him?
Brad, like, what, what?
Like, six-foot-three, crazy risk?
But that doesn't, you know.
I am not going after Duke, man.
Now, again, no homo, but who would you feel comfortable going, like going after?
I'm going first
You're talking about
You're for sure going
Listen
I'm going first
And you have no issues
Going after Davis
Right
Bro, shut the fuck
Oh man
Right
Yo Davis
Nah no
Nah no
I'm up with
Chah
Trump though
Her word
She's dumb cool

Her mother
Here
So like
Okay
So after all the crazy
Things
That happen
People always
Threaten to leave
Is there ever
Fear
That's that like
Somebody will
Actually leave
AMP
No
I don't think so
We never gonna
We bros, bro.
Like, if you never, y'all never fought with, like, each other and shit, like, all group would get mad at each other.
That's why I know that the Nojumper Squad has some durability to it, because me and AD had gotten into crazy-ass fights in the group chat.
You got to, bro.
You got to do whatever.
If you could do that and still patch it up, that means that your friendship has some durability.
You got money after that.
Because it's like, y'all really got respect.
Y'all just got to talk about shit and shit.
You feel me?
Like, anybody, you got to talk about it, bro.
But if, like, if something happened, you, y'all, I didn't talk to the thing forever.
No, fuck, he would never get in a man's.
Yeah.
Come on, bro.
You got to have a little falling out here and there, bro.
Come on.
That's what I tend to do.
I'll beef with somebody and I'll be like, never talking to him again.
No, think about it.
That was it to me.
I'll think about it five years later.
I'll be like, damn.
Five years is crazy.
I'm never talking.
I ain't talked to him since.
I guess I'm never talking to him again.
Like six, nine, do you think that that was a good decision for him saying,
fuck six nine forever?
I mean, shit, that's how you feel.
Hey, I'm in the streets.
You all outside.
You all outside.
You know, yeah.
Yo, would you ever, like, collab.
That don't apply to you, though.
Yeah, it does.
Who, him?
Like, if you're not in the streets,
you're not in the streets, bro.
Oh, but I am.
Oh, fuck it then.
He in the streets.
No.
And they give a no jumper indictment.
No, but I've known since back in the day, I think he's a piece of shit.
So it's not really like a street thing.
It's more just like a character thing.
I think he's got bad character.
That'll be a joke for a bit crazy.
Nah.
Can we all keeping our noses clean?
They're going to indict Josh for fucking smoking blunts in front of his computer or Laura for not
taking her mask off for three years.
I mean, it's not going to be the,
most convincing indictment.
It's crazy.
I never seen Laura without her mask.
Don't expect it because I kind of forgot what she looked like without it.
Man, man.
It's been a while.
But there's some like, bro, there's some new content creators coming up, right?
You know, like guys like Noticah's Bubba, Co-A Alexander TV, even Tay Bando, right?
So would you ever like consider like collaborating with the new like up-in-common like New York content creators?
Hell yeah, I'm big on like, you make good shit.
Mm-hmm.
Not no weak as shit.
Mm-hmm.
shit, I want to work.
Let's do something.
I seen Kai working and I said, yo, Kai, doing these Instagram skits, I fuck with him.
But bro, what if you came to YouTube though, bro?
Bring the source over here.
Let me put, let me show you an eye, boom, boom, boom.
For me, Kai didn't even want to stream when I first, but I'm like, he was like, you're like,
you're like, you're like, you're like, get a crib.
I said, nigga, what?
If you don't, get a, come on, get a PC right now.
He didn't want to show like his room.
I remember when I was streaming back in the day because I always been on it.
I never been to Twitch first.
So I remember my brother, my little brother, like, at that time was like 10 years old, he would come in sock me.
I said, damn, nigga, I'm on live.
I'm thinking this shit embarrassing.
The chat going crazy.
I said, you got to show your life, bro.
That's the whole point of, like, you for me?
That makes you be you, bro, because you're going, you're going, nobody can be you better than you, bro.
You for me?
And I did that with him and he just, you for me, word.
You know what I like about you guys, the AMP shit and all of the new up-and-coming generation of streamers and stuff is that in the rap shit, there's a lot of young rappers who basically,
get the mentality that it's super cool to be fucked up on pills, fucking drunk, smoking way too
much weed and just the energy level is just so low.
But when I look at you guys, I'm like the defining characteristic of why you're good
at what you do or why Kai's good or what he does or why Jideon is good at what he does is
that you guys are outgoing and energetic and you're not putting on this weird fake, you know,
I'm just so my fucking stony brown like me alone.
It's all about putting yourself out there.
I feel like niggas be custis for real, though.
Like that ass, though.
Like, niggas low-key be custis, bro.
Popping all them pills and shit all day.
You could barely talk.
Nah.
NAPE, I'm not gonna lie.
A&P, nobody, like, smoke, pop pills, none of that, bro.
Like, I'm probably the only one that drink in there.
That's why I think it's dope,
because it's like a really good influence
for the younger generation.
You know, early days of no jumper, you had a lie.
I can't lie.
It fucked me up being outside of shows
and seeing like a 15-year-old kid,
this happened one time.
He came up to me.
Adam, I love you so much.
Right, right, right.
I'm looking at him in the eyes.
I'm like, damn, this kid is fucked up.
I thought he got hit in the head in the mosh pit.
And then he's like, no, I took a couple zans.
And I'm realizing like, bro, there's fucking kids out here that are listening to this music.
And they're getting fucked up.
And I, you know, at a certain point, that shit is just terrible.
You don't want to be contributing to that.
That shit, now, they fuck Xenics.
I ain't going to lie.
Speaking of the music, though, so even like the Bronx, you know, or even like the New York, like, the New York governor, I think, like Eric Adams.
Yeah, he on that.
Yeah, so he spoke about, you know, trying to ban drill music because...
Yeah, Benin.
Well, like, Benin from, you know, like, radio and shit like that, right?
Yeah, you can't do that?
They take a lot of the really violent, like, dis songs off of YouTube.
And also what I heard is that they're making clean radio versions of all the popular
drill songs because the radio stations, there's a lot of pressure from the city on the radio stations
to be like, yo, if they're smoking on so-and-so in the song or whatever, you got to record
a new version where they don't say that
or they don't talk about shooting somebody's crib up
or whatever the fuck they'll be talking about. So I actually
think, I mean, shit. It's time to get it under
control for sure. I think we should expect
some degree of responsibility from the radio.
I don't think the radio should
if you want to make this songs, cool.
I don't think the radio should necessarily
be promoting that kind of stuff, you know?
Nah. Sola, do you think, though, that that's the right
move for Eric Adams to try to
police the drum music?
Yeah, police it. Even if he wanted to, he's not
you can't stop shit. I feel like
like, everybody just do their own shit regardless.
Like, even if he went to take it off,
they would just re-upload it on a different,
like if a nigga from the UK, just re-upload the shit,
now can't you take it off?
He can't take it off now.
They can, but also.
Oh, they still can?
You know, but I think of somebody like EBJ Jizzle
who was beefing with Poo Shaisdy,
and he had a disversion of back in blood
that he kept uploading to YouTube,
and Poo Shetty's label kept getting and take him down.
So the song still does exist on YouTube,
but if it's been deleted,
three times and it's only got 100,000 views or whatever.
I mean, it does, like, kill the momentum for sure.
It affects you heavy.
It affects you heavy.
It do, but you know, niggins still going to have a song.
Right.
Yeah, man.
Here, but do you feel, though, like, drill music is increasing, like, the violence,
or do you think that, you know, like, drill music, like, plays no part in the violence?
No.
You know, always been dangerous, though.
I don't think it's increasing shit.
I think it's always been the same way.
Even back then, like, New York always been devious, bro.
Always been sitchie.
always, always, like, that shit ain't never changed.
So why do you go back to the trenches then?
Like, if it's that dangerous.
It's where you feel the safest thing.
That's all I know, gay, for real.
Like, I'm still going to leave, bro.
You're safer in the woods in Atlanta.
Nah, you got to leave.
I'm dead ass trying.
It's just, bro.
You got to get out of there, man.
It's like, it's not even like, as I said,
what's regular to me is might not be regular to somebody else, bro.
Like, I might just go downstairs.
Like the other day I was, I had came downstairs.
I was bupping some music,
smoking the flex with the bros and shit.
some shoulders was over.
And they can just start stabbing some nigga on the corner.
Like, I'm talking about prison-style stabbing, though.
Like, not no, he was going, like, going crazy.
And you know, we just have to move for a little bit.
And you just fully saw this just going down.
Yeah, no, they're going crazy.
I'm like, hopefully they don't just start flocking this bitch right now.
You feel, me, he didn't.
And then that's it.
We went back to the music.
Like, what can I do?
You feel, be like, I'm not about to be here trying to be the hood pop
and she trying to stop everybody.
You can't.
For me, everybody got the own, you know,
you know, everybody got something that's going on.
But do you see people acting shi-see towards you because they perceive you as having a bunch of money and everything, so maybe they want to borrow money from you.
I don't think I come off like that.
I don't, I don't shit on nobody, game.
Like, I'm me.
Right.
Don't mean, you don't do that.
No, but you got to know, though, like, the hood don't love nobody.
They always say that.
I don't want to.
Right?
Because, listen, because after a while, you know, as you start to grow more, like, the wolves is going to start feeling like, damn, man, like, yeah, you know, and he's taking care of us, but, yo, you know, like, we're not shining how he's.
He's shining, you know?
I don't babysit people, bro.
I just, yeah.
But I also don't shit.
I'm not about to come in and just with all my shit on like, yeah, gang, what's going on?
What you doing today?
Like, what the fuck?
Like, that's OD.
Like, that's OD, bro.
That's whack, bro.
Like, you do that to your Mids?
That's, you're not, you're fucked up.
Like, is that why, like, you don't have on, like, no jewelry, no nothing?
I don't really rock my jewelry.
Like, I like, I like gold a lot.
I don't really like Diamond's OD, for me?
But yeah.
Nah, here.
So, like, you know, and one last question, man.
So what's one secret, right?
So if a kid is coming up right now, he's like 14 years old,
wants to getting you to, wants to be the next fan
and wants to blow up just like you.
Be obsessed.
How would he?
Okay.
Be obsessed, bro, that everybody think you crazy.
Because everybody thought I was crazy.
You feel me?
Now everybody would be on my dick.
I ain't going to lie.
Like, people that were talking shit back then,
yo, bro, nigga, shut the fuck up.
Like, I'd be putting them to the side.
Like, especially people from high school and shit, oh, my God.
You know what I mean?
Like, you got to just stay focused on your shit, on your path, bro.
on your journey, bro. It's the process, bro.
Just keep focused. And I think a lot of people look at the previous generations of vloggers
and content creators and they might think like, oh, those dudes were, they were winning,
but they were corny as fuck, et cetera. So that's why, like, even somebody like AD,
when I was kind of encouraging him to start streaming or whatever, I think in his head,
he kind of thought like, oh, I'm going to have to be messy as fuck, gossipy, et cetera.
And then over time, realized, like, oh, I can actually just go on there.
They don't really want anything besides me to just be myself.
He went through that, though.
I went through that heavy.
In the beginning, it was so hard, bro.
It was like YouTube was so different.
You was a YouTuber, you was lame, bro.
Like, oh, you do YouTube?
Like, for me, now, Shorty's B knowing you do YouTube?
Oh, he do YouTube?
Like, it doesn't change now.
Like, in the city, OD.
Like, for me, they just, I guess they related to money,
I guess.
I don't know what the fuck it is, but it's different.
It's way different from back then.
Yeah, because, like, YouTube's got way more money
than, like, rappers now.
Even like a low grade YouTube
would make like 10K a month.
He has more money than most rappers, right?
Even now, bro, like, name me a YouTuber
a rapper who can fuck a Mr. Beast.
Damn, out, Drake.
Exactly, right?
Like, yo, so YouTubers right now, like,
are we the new rappers?
If you were to compare Mr. Bees' fame and money,
you would have to put him in the category of the top rappers, for sure.
But rappers get to the rapists, though.
You still get that swag from being a rapper, though.
For me?
It's different, though.
Well, how's the YouTube groupies from your perspective?
Bro, Doddies, bro.
You'll be treating you all right?
Yeah, they're wild.
I don't even, I'm real reserved, though.
I don't like that shit.
You don't like it?
Like, when a bitch's trying to be, like, all upon you,
because I hate that shit, bro.
Like, I hate that shit.
When I first started to get the cloud,
I was very happy to get some fan pussy,
but then as I got older,
it just kind of became like, yeah.
It's a turnoff when you like that, you know?
You treat me like an object.
I hate that.
Yeah, word.
Like, niggins word.
Like, come on.
Nah, who's the baddest famous chick
and you don't smash this being on.
You have it.
Come on, man.
Come on, man.
Tell us.
Come on, bro.
All right.
Have you ever smashed a chick, though, that you've seen in, you know,
let's say.
Yeah, but I'm real reserved, bro.
You would never know, nigga.
Like, what are my mother?
I don't talk about none of my shit like that.
That's OD.
Yo, I feel like the plug pages by to, like,
go through every picture, every post, every IG follower,
and try to find it.
I don't even follow the bitches out.
You ever see an agent doll on your block?
Huh?
You've seen Asian doll on your block?
Asian dogs?
Yeah.
Nah, but I know she'd be in the Bronx and shit.
That's what I'm saying.
But I'd never seen them.
Oh, okay.
How do you feel about them starting to go for me to get her to fuck out of there?
What?
They did what?
To make it leave the box.
Niggas is trolls, bro.
Nah, niggas is nice.
I don't know her.
I don't know her.
I don't know her old shit.
I don't really know too much about that.
To be honest.
I don't know what.
She's just trying to figure out what set she's rapping out there, you know?
Yeah, so pretty much like she came, like,
dressed in like all blue and throwing up like a different set, you know, that would primarily
wear red, right? So she was wilding, right? And then I think, you know, there was a go
funding that started to, you know, to have her go back home because she overstayed her welcome
in the Bronx. If Asian dog welcome back to the Bronx, is she the queen of the Bronx?
She could do whatever she wants. She's not the queen of the Bronx. How well?
You're not a video with her views. It's going crazy. Come on. We got to tap you in.
I don't know. I'm going to do. No, you good on Asian law? No, I'm just saying like I'm going to do
My shit, like my YouTube shit.
She's a rapper, right?
Yeah.
I'm not a rapper.
She's hard.
Do she rap?
Yes.
Now?
Yes.
I don't know, bro.
I feel like she's like a four-time hood chick now, man.
Damn.
Right?
She'd be rapping.
She's from the Bronx?
She's from Texas.
Bro, she's from Texas.
She's not from the Bronx?
So you can't say she to Queen of her.
How are you going to say that?
What?
I mean, she was kind of jacking at though, right?
Because she came to the Bronx.
You feel me?
I think she was like fucking on, like, Dougie B for a little minute.
Yeah, man.
Eventually hopped from Dougie B.
to a couple of other, like, Bronx niggas.
Now, also, too, Nazi B.K says she was in the trenches
selling the box for 10K, you know.
Oh, my God.
Hit.
Again, Nazi B.K. said it did not meet, right?
So, she got to watch.
Listen, bro.
Now, be honest.
Do you think that any Bronx nigger
can afford the 10K for Asian dolls?
Bronx niggas get to the back, too, though.
The street niggas.
Yeah, what?
Niggas get to the back, but aside by, like,
That shit, I don't know what's going on there, but I'm saying like,
niggas get money in the Bronx.
Like, come on.
I'll pay her 10 grand to stomp on my balls.
To what?
To stop with her.
Just kidding.
Nah.
You wouldn't let Asian Doll be a dominatrix for you?
I wouldn't fuck Agent Daw.
Come on, man.
What?
He gay.
How are you?
Like, you're reserved or like, you'd be running down,
you're ridding up bitches and shit?
Like, what should be doing?
You'll listen.
He got no Riz.
That's a whole not.
Everybody got some sort of Riz.
You're digging in his life.
Everybody got some sort of risk.
Come on, bro.
Everybody got a little bit of something.
Nah, bro.
Like, my personal philosophy is, bro,
if you've been drenched in Reggie Phil Seaman, bro,
I'm not dating you.
Nah, you're missing out.
Crazy.
Nah, man.
