People having sex all over the room, but they need some tunes so they can know what to do next. Hire a DJ and hit her with a, why she getting hit with that. Got a DJ tonight at an orgy. I got to play a track list while people. are having sex.
Starting point is 00:02:59 What songs do they want to hear? She got a dig in her face, she got a dig in her ear. I said what? I said what? A mama, I'm going to be mad at this shit that you would stop for a hot of DJ. At the origin.
Starting point is 00:03:10 Yeah. We got the two for one drinks and take a break because the roof's starting to stink. Hold on. Hey man, welcome back. The black market is open. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:03:26 That was the intro? That's how we get down over here at the trap, man. It's still the trap. Even though this is the black market, we're in the trap, bro. Anything subject to happen, man. First of all, welcome to the trap, DJ Morris. I can't believe it took you this long
Starting point is 00:03:44 to get over here, man. Man, if they just knew the history, bro, we, DJ Mars on the low, we planted the seeds to make this shit happen, bro. They don't know that, Like the test episodes? The test joints? This is my original co-host right here.
Starting point is 00:04:06 No, fuck that. Because without us doing that, we would have never figured out to do this. You get what I'm saying? And it's like those days we spent in the studio, man, we knew we was on to something. Just didn't know where it was going to end up. Exactly, Mundo.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Bro. First of all, welcome to the trap again, formally. Man, we've been over here cooking it up and, man, we know you in the city cooking it up and shit everywhere cooking it up, man. Give them a brief rundown the background first before we get into all the shit you're doing now.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Oh, man, what decade do you want to start? I know that sounds old, but... You want, will you start in the 80s? No, what was you doing in the 80s, DJ Marr? Start in the 80s, me. So, yeah, this is going to sound extremely old. I know, you know, we focus on age and demographics. I bought my first record in 1982.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Okay, bet. It was playing that. rock. That was the very first record. I bought it for main music in Springfield, Massachusetts. That's my hometown. Springfield, Massachusetts. I probably stole the dollar 99 or 99 cent that it cost for the record from my moms. You know, back in the day, moms had a big pocketbook. You go in there, you take the money out of the pocketbook. I ain't never winning my mom's pocketbook. I'm telling you're bold as fuck, bro. You probably one of the only surviving black children that is ever safely gone in their mother's pocketbook. I guess the type of shit that let y'all do is Springfield.
Starting point is 00:05:25 in Massachusetts. I ain't never even heard of no niggas living in Massachusetts. I got $5 for any nigga in this room that can spell Massachusetts out loud without looking at it. Nobody even looked up in. No, no goddamn Massachusetts. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:42 And what was it like growing up as a black dude? It was cool, so when I tell people that's where I'm from, the first thing they say, is there black people in Massachusetts? I tell this gang of black people. You will get robbed quicker at Massachusetts than you would in let's say a New York obviously I don't know that to be fact but what I'm saying is it's wild there like when you got your wild pockets and then you got your your suburban pockets so what it did it taught me a little bit about everything because
Starting point is 00:06:10 you had some friends black white whatever who grew up rich and then the other side you had some friends black white whoever who grew up poor so you saw what the world really was and it was diversity yeah it was small enough so your parents let you out the house so you can experience but big enough so you saw what it did like so when i say saw what it did i grew up and i don't even like talking about this but i grew up in the crack era like i saw before it started and then it swiped through my city i saw that i saw a kid Travis best who graduated from my high school that went on to the NBA he played he went to georgia went to pacers he he retired in the NBA so so when i say you saw everything like i
Starting point is 00:06:55 literally saw everything. And it made it so that in terms of who I am, DJ-wise and personality-wise, I was well-rounded because I saw all shapes of in the lives of life. I was getting ready to ask you, like having that wide range of people and friends and stuff around you,
Starting point is 00:07:11 like, what type of music did these people, like, introduce you to? That we know that you might not have got, just being, you know. We didn't have V-103 in Massachusetts. We had W-H-Y-N, and they used to play the Doobie Brothers. brothers, Linda Ronstadt, hauling notes.
Starting point is 00:07:29 Like, so we had, we had... Well, hauling notes, that's funk, though. That's some funky-ass white boys. Yeah, but that's what we had, right? And then we had college radio who extremely day-parted. Two hours a day, you would hear hip-hop, but it wouldn't be the same two hours every day. So on Monday it'd be two to four.
Starting point is 00:07:49 On Tuesday, it would be four to six. On Wednesday, it would be 3 a.m. to 5 a.m. It was extremely day-up at 3 a.m. But it was college radio. So college radio back then was extremely organic and it was extremely experimental. So after your hip-hop show,
Starting point is 00:08:09 it would be acid rock. Before that, it would be Roots Reggae. So we really grew up listening to everything and it kind of made me, from a DJ's perspective, it made me a better DJ because, I mean, I grew up listening to Led Zeppelin, at the same time listening. to ultramagnetic and de la soul and public enemy.
Starting point is 00:08:29 So the reason why my crates are as deep as they are is because that's how I grew up. I didn't just grow up listening to just Luther Vandros. As a kid, I wish I did because, you know, you're fishing through the radio for Run DMC and it didn't happen. Right. So.
Starting point is 00:08:47 I lost me with that whole dance with my father's shit. I'm just going to keep it. I ain't never heard a nigga or Skinny Louvre? That was one of his last album. This thing had made an album called Dance with my father. I was like, what the fuck? Welcome to Pretty Private with Ebeney, the podcast where silence is broken and stories are set free.
Starting point is 00:09:07 I'm Ebeney, and every Tuesday I'll be sharing all new anonymous stories that would challenge your perceptions and give you new insight on the people around you.

Starting point is 00:11:29 Listen to Family Secrets Season 12 on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. God bless you, it. But I ain't got to like everything. That one threw me all the way off. I wasn't even really all the way in my adulthood. And I was like, what?
Starting point is 00:11:51 You didn't get it. I looked at my dad. I was like, don't you have to drive dad, bro. The type of shit is that. Yeah, this was really funny. Hell yeah, man. So that's what happened in the 80s. You're just discovering all this dope-ass shit.
Starting point is 00:12:11 All right. So what led you to the DJ in? It was a neighborhood thing. So the neighborhood that I grew up in, I felt like was the coolest name. neighborhood in the city. That's just how I felt. We probably weren't, but that's how I feel like the neighborhood the cool. So legitimately
Starting point is 00:12:25 we had one of the best graffiti writers in the city. He lived down the block. So I lived on Hickory the projects in Hickory Street. He lived on Eastern Ave, like literally on the corner. So you got the best graffiti writer in the city. One of my neighbors, a few houses
Starting point is 00:12:41 down was a DJ, and there was another DJ at the top of the projects who I would stand in front of the bus stop, and he's cutting up break beats. So I felt like that's what I was around naturally. You know what I mean? I didn't know it was going to beat this. I didn't know that this was even available for people outside of New York
Starting point is 00:12:59 because I legitimately thought the only way you can get on is if you lived in New York because you would see Run DMC with Jamaster Jay. You would see L.O. Cool J. So I thought that the DJ got on because he lived across the street from the rapper. I ain't live across the street from the rapper. What's my DJ's name? So, you know, that's, I thought that was the trajectory. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:25 But that's dope, man. You really got to take your whole dreams and DJing aspirations to a whole other level and work with some legends in the city, man. How you go from Springfield, Massachusetts to Atlanta, Georgia? It was college, Clark Atlanta University. That was the reason that brought me to the eight. I was just throwing the HBCU route, you know. We always got show love to the...
Starting point is 00:13:51 Honestly, that was the plug. So came down here in 91 to go to college. I was graduated, but in school, I was majoring in communications, and I wanted to create content for TV, kind of like what your crew is doing. Yeah. Inspired by... Because this is the number one black TV show that's not on TV.
Starting point is 00:14:09 Not on TV, but it's going to be. We already know that. So I was inspired by Spike Lee and Arsenio Hall. Arsenio, obviously, for his late-night talk. show, and then the stuff that Spike was doing with his films, I felt like that talked to me directly. And I knew Spike went to Morehouse, but he took his classes at Clark. So I was like, well, I'll just go directly to the source. I'll take my classes at Clark.
Starting point is 00:14:34 So that's what got me to the A. How you get to working with people like Outcast and shit like that, man? So the Outcast story is crazy. So my man, Sean Johnson, introduced me to Outcast. This is when they were both in high school. Both of them was in high school, and one day he picks me up, so me and DJ Trauma at the time were roommates. And he picks me up, he's like, yo, I'm going to take you over to meet these rappers. They're really dope.
Starting point is 00:15:02 This is, let's say, 92, 93. So we pull up to this house, walk in the house. There's an older black woman in the kitchen cooking. We say hi, and we go downstairs. So you walk down, this is God's honor's true. You walk downstairs and you see a bunch of guys. I was sitting over there, somebody laying on the floor, someone over there, and then you see this skinny dark skin cap, I guess, like behind the booth.
Starting point is 00:15:29 And it's Rico Wade. Now, I don't know who I'm looking at, because this is the first time I'm walking into the house, but it's the dungeon, right? So I don't remember what they were recording, but this is dungeon before Outcast got signed to LaFace. It was whatever that year was. So let's say, for argument's sake, let's say it's 93. right again they're still in high school 93 and the whole dungeon is forming right so i'm sitting there talking to rico and riko is legitimately like the visionary but i mean we we talked hip-hop for
Starting point is 00:16:04 hours and i felt like they were they were the same as me in terms of hip-hop knowledge history i mean we're talking everything we're talking break beats we're talking africa bandbana these are dudes I never met before, but I knew that they knew what time it was. I don't care where, it didn't even matter where they were from. You knew that they knew, then you knew that Rico was the head because he was forming a crew like Voltron. Now, again, I didn't know, let's say there's six bodies sitting over there. I didn't know that these two outcasts and these four were goody mob.
Starting point is 00:16:40 I just knew that they were rappers that this genius was putting together. So imagine seeing Dungeon Family from, that's not the beginning, but this is before Alcat's got a record deal. So I've been in that space, in around Atlanta history from, let's say that was my starting point. Incredible. And then only to find out I go home for the summer, come back, Outkaz got a record deal with a face. And I'm like, these are the cats who I used to kick it with. They used to come to our crib, rhyme in our liver room. I wish we had social media back then
Starting point is 00:17:18 because it was some real history. One of them dyed their hair blonde and I don't remember who, so I don't want to mess up the story. One of them died their hair blonde and their moms kicked them out the house. I picked up whoever the one was, I picked up the other one to pick up the one
Starting point is 00:17:34 who got kicked out the crib to bring them to the other one's house. So seeing them from that vantage point from day one, you knew they were nice on a hip-hop level from like, There was no marketing plan, no. These two high school kids was bananas with it. So, you know, that's the genesis of my history of hip hop here in Atlanta.
Starting point is 00:17:56 Man, you got a lot of history, though, in the history of Atlanta. I haven't heard a few people shout you out at their verses and shit like that recently. Thank you. We did the monica verses, which was great. I think to this day, I think that's top five highest rated verses of all of them, which is bananas. You're in a room like this, right? And you're not knowing that the numbers are going through the roof.
Starting point is 00:18:22 And we were, let's say, 30% through the show. And the producer came over and it's like, yo, y'all broke a record. And I'm literally in a room like this. You don't know that the record is being broke. You're not even paying. I'm just making sure that we start Monica's records on point. Then he's like, no, no, no, you're at. I'm paraphrasing the number because I don't remember it.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Let's say he's like, we're almost at $2 million. I was in there. Crazy. I was in the comments talking so much shit. What was you talking about? You know, the comments was going crazy because Monica had them boots on and they looked like prosthetic legs.
Starting point is 00:19:01 That was one of the best ones, bro. Like, man, people love to see, you know, our stars finally getting their flowers, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Man, I love it. I feel like, um, Atlanta has been on top longer than any other city has been on top. And you've been here the whole time, bro.
Starting point is 00:19:21 This is going to have to take us like five episodes to get through all the shit. I come back. I'll switch my shirts. I'm going back. Fuck the shirts, man. That's how gayster we are in this motherfucker, man. Fuck switching.
Starting point is 00:19:32 We're just going to keep the cameras on until we leave this motherfucking, man. So what you got going on right now, man? I know you've been going crazy with the cars. I want to skip straight to that part because that's my favorite part. How many cars are you have? Uh, shit. We don't, we don't say numbers and things like that. We gotta, we gotta, we'll never be walking.
Starting point is 00:19:52 Never be walking. Never walk anywhere. So I got the Uptown Car Club. It's really, what I gotta have to be in the Uptown Car Club. So the Uptown Car Club focuses on cars primarily from the 80s and 90s. Obviously, you know, we're gonna stretch it out because, you know, time is moving on, but 80s and 90s, European-style whips for the most part.
Starting point is 00:20:17 I'm about to get something then. I've been wanting to get me all the 5-speed in anyway. So if you know anybody got an M3, manual. Coach K got... I can't... No, no, no, no, no. Coach shit is... Coach got some shit that's immacconant.
Starting point is 00:20:32 I remember because of his birthday, they got them that cold-ass BMW. Man, Migo's bought it for, right? Maybe the label, maybe QC. Somebody... Somebody at the label. Make sure that, because I remember them, uh, when they shipped it to Atlanta.
Starting point is 00:20:47 Because I had got to call a couple times before they found the actual one. Like, Lowe's, you got one? I was like, hell no. You know how much that bitch is? Yeah, yeah, man. Yo, so the cool thing about cars, you know, the way we're doing the car thing
Starting point is 00:21:00 is you don't got, coach's level is another level, right? Coach been killing it for so long on the lower and he, like, he don't fuck with none of that. A lot of people won't even know Coach if they walk past him. But he's just been, he's so low-key with the shit. So his is, like, executive level.
Starting point is 00:21:17 Gotta get him up here. Definitely not. But you can enter the old school car game with like $5,000. And I'm not saying $5,000 is a little bit of money. Stop whining to these people. No, you can. No, you can't. No, you can't.
Starting point is 00:21:30 No, you can't. You can buy it. You can own it for that, but you ain't going nowhere. Come on, Mars. See, that's why people end up with all these fucking cars and broken dreams because you really believe that shit. No, if you buy an old car, you need enough money to make that bitch a new car. Yeah, you need, I'm saying to buy the car.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Yeah, you can own it. You can own it. You can own it. You can get in. I mean, you can find you a nice late model 90s era bends or... With some turbo won't it for, yeah, you're right. You could. But then... Obviously, it's an investment. You got to put it into it. You got to put it.
Starting point is 00:22:07 You got to grab with you. I'm going to get me something. It's got to be a fast speed, though. See, I don't like driving six, automatic. I'm not a speedster. I'm not a speedster. I'm not on a highway going a million miles an hour. Now, I'm 400 going 150.
Starting point is 00:22:22 Oh, this fucking guy. I'm about to start a class just teaching people how to drive sticks. My first car was a stick. I had an 86 Dodge Lancer. That was my very friend. You had a Lancer? Dodge Lancer, Turbo, at that.
Starting point is 00:22:36 Automatic. Great. The turbo didn't make it go faster because it was already old when I got it, but it was 86 Dodge Lancer, Turbo. Burtable, bought it from auction for $2,500. You know, it was crazy. I had a car just like that, but I had, you know,
Starting point is 00:22:50 Dodge Plymouth, they made the same shit. I had the Plymouth Laser, which is the same fucking car. Essentially. Mine was a big-ass brick. Mine was, my shit was probably 88, but when I bought it, it was still low mileage and so immaculate. I just drove shit out of it. I was so mad when I first got it because I came home and I was like,
Starting point is 00:23:12 because I was saving up the buyer car. I had it like in my mind and then I got this one but like it wasn't I didn't pick it so I'm like I'll drive fucking whatever I'm just trying to roll at this point I go out there and I start I'm looking about to start like no it's a stick I'm like fuck I went in the house I'm like shit how am I gonna do this I was like you figure it out so I went back outside the same night drove that bitch I got stuck for like 15 minutes but I got stuck for like 15 minutes and then I figured that shit out and then like I did that shit maybe two more nights
Starting point is 00:23:46 just driving when I got home drove that bitch to school and I was like man I'm Gucci good money good money yeah man so the car thing is every man needs their thing right every man needs a thing so for some you know I do sneakers
Starting point is 00:24:02 I do firearms cars and bikes we all you need a hobby when you come off the road you need something to take you away from this to You know, to relax this. You got a lot of habits, man. You do cars, firearms, and you build bikes.
Starting point is 00:24:17 Yeah. That's crazy. When you find time to mix it all up. The days that I'm not in the clubs or not on the road, like really, it's my relaxation tool, you know what I mean, to get away from... See, they ain't know you as a gun enthusiast like that. Bro, it's the South.
Starting point is 00:24:34 You got to protect yourself. Yeah. Got to. Even before the nonsense with the last president, like I was on that. heavy. One thing they love in the South, though, man, that's some guns and some Jesus. They take turns. It depends on where you're at. It's the same situation. So, on the tip of the bikes, you know, that's my newest public venture. Right. It's made by Mars. So I customized bikes for
Starting point is 00:25:02 people. So, you know, you can either buy a factory bike. We got one. Thad. You got our bike. We got some, man, let me see it. I'm going to go to show Mars. I want to get his opinion. We had another guy come who built bikes, black dude, entrepreneur. So we got a little. What's his name? God damn it, Mars.
Starting point is 00:25:21 True question, true question, true question. Nah, we'll get his name, but he's pretty dope. We're gonna get him the finish deal. Right now we just got it as like art. We're gonna get him to complete it. We gotta get him DJ Mars bike, 85 South theme. That color way, the black with the orange and the blue? OG color way.
Starting point is 00:25:41 We'll go OG, we'll go. Real white and blue. Yeah. Dope. Yeah, we need one. The bike thing, I started at, I was diagnosed with diabetes, let's say, about eight years ago. So the doctor was like, yo, you gotta lose some weight.
Starting point is 00:25:57 So I'm not a gym person. I'm not gonna be in a gym, lifting, running. So I figured I needed to do something to get some exercise in. Check that out. Ooh. Super light frame, too. Who's gonna ride this? This is my shit.
Starting point is 00:26:13 Nice. Nice. Yeah. I got to get back in touch with him. He got the rest of the parts to finish it. He just got to come up here and do it. So I like, I like, obviously, the Atlanta theme with the, with the, can they see it on this side? The peach, obviously the 85 South.
Starting point is 00:26:29 This is going to fire. You see the smoke and the flames. We got our goons right here. The killers. Yeah, we got the killers on that bitch. We got the A-Town. Dope. Come on, man.
Starting point is 00:26:38 Quit touching shit. You see it? Leave it alone. You know. You down there on the chain. We're just, we're just building over here, man. I'm on the top two. And what's this right here?
Starting point is 00:26:48 That's his name, J.R.S. Custom Bicycles. Yeah, J.R.A. Boom. Shout out to my dog. We're gonna get you up here to finish this from there. So yeah, it was really borne out of necessity. I needed to take it back. I needed to lose weight.
