You did that. But as a champion, though, like, how does it feel? Because you know, that's the ultimate goal. When my phone goes to the NBA, you want to be a champion? You see what I'm saying? Like, how did it feel? With them goddamn they confetti thug coming out, that shit, we hit y'all on the face like the script.

That's crazy. That's crazy. Yeah. Yeah. I can't just be a male in the strip-up. No, I think you got hit like a scribble. Hey. Like, yeah.

It came down on everybody. No, but it was, I ain't gonna lie. And the confetti made it, you know what I'm saying? Like, it make it real. Like, even having, like, the champagne, the locker room. Like, we had goggles for it. Like, it was just fun as hell to, like, see everybody that happy. that happy but to see everybody like finally get a chance to be weak you know what I'm

saying like it's the whole time everybody just oh and then at the end everybody's like thank you guys was hugged we falling on the floor oh oh like it just it felt like all the f finally came back into the room bro like you could finally breathe again like but it make all that shit worth it all the sprints all the like achy nights the nights the nights you gonna be with your family like people don't be thinking about that but that should be hard bro like you know what I'm saying 14 day road trips like yeah we gonna do athlete shit and go out and go to dinner and people gonna take pictures of us yeah like we gonna do that just so we ain't got to sit in a hotel room but it's like for real for real like I know it's a bunch of great

dudes in the league and moms be like facetime and their kids like y'all took a cool last picture I was walking into the restaurant but we at the table moms facetime and their kids and shit like one wanting to be around them. So it's like, finally winning the championship and then you come back to your wife and you're like, this is why, you know what I'm saying? This is why we weren't around. Yeah, this is why I'm doing six hour days.

This is why eight hours out the day is seeing like, damn, you stay at the gym, you're going back again. You're going to shoot tonight? It's like, yeah, I shot it back. You know what I'm saying? Like, damn, after the game for him, waiting for you shooting this shit? It's great, got to be great.

But it would be like, gee, yeah, you got the repetition, just seeing the ball go in, and having the confidence to shoot that shit and miss that shit, for real, for real. That's all NBA is. Like, you got a bunch of dudes that got the balls to say, I'm gonna come out here and play defense,

and if he crossed the shit out of me, like, I'll take that chance and everybody can laugh at me, cool. But them the miles that go get it, the mind that's gonna jump and do a crazy dunk on the breakaway, like, you may miss that. It looks stupid than the mother, but do you got the balls to come back again

and try it again and make it? Right. Because that's all they're going to remember. They're not going to remember them this. You know what I'm saying? They probably going to remember my, I shot that one off the glass. Yeah, yeah. They're going to remember that forever.

Yeah, I remember that. You know what I'm saying? You're going to remember that. Do you remember Steph's doing it? No. That's crazy, right? Right. Steph shot at least 15 of them.

You know what I'm saying? But I know what he did, dude. He fucked up in the playoffs. Yeah. Nigger. Damn. That whole niggas accountable. No, but I'm saying, though, it's just crazy that a fan, like,

You gonna remember when he had the boss to do it again. But you know what I do remember over the shot though? But you know what I do remember over the shot? What that? You're a champion. You can't get that. He can't get that. You get what I said.

You can't get that. You can't get that. That's what makes Steph good, Joe. He'll go out there and shoot an elbow from 40 feet. And then everybody's like, why the hell you shoot that? And then he'll make one and now you gotta guard him 40 feet from the basket. So any move he do gonna get you. get you. Like, you ain't got a guard. I usually got a guard

that 3.1. I got a guard, of course. Right. You got to guard that nigga. He may shoot it from the logo. Right. He might shoot it from out of bounds. He made. They made, do you what I'm saying? And we, and we be sitting there looking at the ref, like, what is that? Is that out of balance? You know what is that? Can you see, Karin?

I only want to play basketball. And I'm just like, ooh, I get to ask this nigga all my favorite. That's what I told that nigga. His hoop hoop dreams came true. I'm talking about you lost it. You did it for us. You made it out the hood, hooping. What?

That was an ultimate goal for me, boy. I didn't see myself doing that shit. Like, so look, okay, when you out there, you hooping, right? Because I know it politics. Like, what defers niggas from being new type of guys when they're going in and they handle their business and taking out of the energy and control the game versus you're just going out there being like a,

like a, like a, what's a dude with the braid? Don't say his name. What a dude with the braid? What a dude with the braid? You just play for the Spurred, but he played for the long, got the ugly laugh. Yeah, Kawhi. Like, see, he don't really got no emotion when he played. He just play good and just go sit out.

Yeah. But see, like, somebody with sauce, they're going in there and do their thing, and they just take over the whole game. And, like, what defers people from being that type of player and just want to go in there and play the game? Maws really, that's who they are. Like, Kawhi, off the court, it's just like that. He's chill.

He don't really want a lot of attention. He's trying to go through the back. You know what I'm saying? really trying to be bothered, talk to people like that. He stayed with his, you know what I'm saying? That's who he is, like, it's cool, right? You got somebody like, like, Bronn loves, he, he explained to us even while we was playing together.

He like, I love, like, because I do too. I love the energy of a game. Like, I love the trash talk. I love the almost fighting. Yes. I like the fight or flight feeling. Like, you know what I'm saying? I'm addicted to it.

I like that moment at the end of the game. when your best player got the ball and I'm supposed to stop him and everybody like yeah like I got my money on that yeah fuck that you see what I said don't let that nigger go left yes sir don't let him go yes sir that's my that's you know what I'm saying everybody yeah yes sir that's what I hear like yeah yes sir I live for that moment like oh shit it's on me yeah it's on me but it's like you got somebody like Brian that like I want to be in that seat like he get the end of the game on the other side. Now he the other

side looking at me, you know what I'm saying? Like I love that side too. It's just who I had to play with coming in. I got mellow, stack, wait your turn, Sean. You know what I'm saying? Trade out, Brian, you got to wait your turn. You know what I'm saying? It sucks. Because he's like, Bron, 16, 17 years

in, it's like, yeah, but he's slowing down, so wait to turn, gee. Until he run out. Like, until he stopped going to the ship, like, we kind of got to let him rock and it's it was hard to grow with with shit like that to be like when am i going to take a end of the game shot like i love doing that high school college like i love that moment but you might not getting that to that that role you know what i'm saying and mine's got to be cool with that and get stuck in the love so that part that's that's my championship you see what i'm

saying like bob like you like defense no i kind of just like that part i like i like pressure and i like everybody being like he got balls because i just i don't you know what i'm saying like i would love to be on the other side of it like yeah yeah i would love to have 25 shots of game to be like nah now i ain't fin to shoot these corner threes i'm gonna shoot what i want to shoot right you i'm gonna yank you how i want to yank you you what i'm saying i get the call the screens and shit like ain't gonna be all that maybe i don't like playing like that i like playing like this and this how we run it you see what i'm saying like that's why i love point guard when i came in I was a point guard. I had to go to move to three. I tore my ACL. They, man, we got

Raymond Felon. We got this guy. You know, he came back early, slide to two. You know what I'm saying? You can guard two to four. Put him at three, fucking. Put mellow at four. I'm gonna figure that. I was like, how to head you end up becoming the three? And I was like, I don't know what he was at first. I'm high. I'm just watching. You got to go ahead. This shit lit. Go ahead. This shit. Keep talking. This shit for 30 for 30. Hey, welcome back for 31. Uh, this ghetto audition, man. He ain't got to say shit. Keep talking your shit, bro. I'm telling you. We'll get to the shit in the minute.

Keep on, bro. No, it just, bro, you got to get trapped in, like, whatever it is for that ring. Like, and that's what I got trapped in. Like, sometimes I wish, like, I could go back and be like, man, when I came back from A.C. And I wasn't playing point guard. I should have just pulled how these young, they just be like, they'll go to the media, be like, I should be playing point guard. I want to trade.

I'm like, gee, maybe I should have just told my agent, like, yeah, tell them trade me if I ain't going back to the one. I ain't playing two. But something about me was like, no, like they're going, you know what I'm saying? I'm going to play two for the rest of this year. They're going to throw me back to one. You know what I'm saying? After that, I get my chance to go, you know what I'm saying? But it was like we got coach change. They got different plans for it. They see it different. It's like my draft GM. It's like my draft GM. It's like my shit went that way. So it's politics like that way. It's not really, it wasn't really politics. It's just situation like, yeah. Now, bro draft me. You know what I'm saying? He's like, yeah, I'm the GM. Yeah, you're a good GM. I got you. You're a good GM. You're a good GM. Get him what he wants. He draft me, right?

And he tells me that, like, yeah, this is your team. We got this head coach right here. Right. So he's my head coach. Right. Now, he's like, cool. I love I'ma at the one. I love playing a big point guard.

Boom. We have a season where we ain't doing too well. He got to make a change. Before he want to make the change, they fire him. now he's a coach but he always seen me in college as like I don't really think he a point guard

I think he a two I want him to score he athletic he's strong I want him to guard the two guard too I don't think I want him pressure in the one all the time I want to play a smaller one so he go throw me at the two

but he coming in like you know what I'm saying he's just like in my mind just works so he's mind run that so it's like I could either be the disobedient child that's like I ain't doing that

And I always looked at other people and been like, bro, why you be doing that, bro? We're trying to win. Like, what is it to niggas? You know what I'm saying? And then I looked at the career-wise. So sometimes I go back and be like, man, I wish I would have been a little dickhead about it. Like, but would I have been a champion? Mm-hmm.

See what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? Say that one more time. Like, say that one more time. One more time. I could have been that guy that, like, pouted until you gave me my 25 shots and I might have been an all-star, whatever. I could have got that lane, but would I have been a champion? You know what I'm saying?

Like, I don't know. I don't know. Because I still, you know what I'm saying? Like, I feel like I had knee injuries. Like, I had shit happen. And I used to wake up from surgeries because, you know, after the first couple surgeries, like, you get used to it. And then you're like, I'm waking up from surgery. I'm calling the Uber.

They're like, you got somebody to pick you up. Rob, you know what I can get to the auto. And they did they surgery be like overnight. Y'all nigs be bad. type shit, but it's like, I got damn near used to it where I'm just like, it's just part of it now, oh, my shoulder pop out I got, ah, fuck it. Damn, motherfucker.

You know what I'm saying? Finger mess up, ah, fix it, let's go. You know what I'm prepared for that shit? Yeah, my shit ain't even straight no more. But it's crazy because it's actually stronger now. Yeah, it should be, man, you got a little. So it'd be motherfuckolding that begin their shit popped on the side and they had to go in their jail. That bitch got a groove in there.

You got, you got, you got, my answer to do that, they'll go to the bench, they'll pop it back in place, wrap it up, tape it with your other finger, and you could play. They just make sure there's no structural damage. You know what I'm saying? You could deal with like the sting of it after a couple of hits and your adrenaline kicking you straight man you're trying to win but it's like I don't think anybody in the league is healthy.

And I was just like, damn, like why I keep having to? get surgery too like wow I felt like I was getting so many surges I'm like gee why am I should I just switch up high hoop like should I play different bro should I stop diving on the floor and do it all this wild shit what was the main what was the main surgery like you kept getting that you see it just kept being like you just kept being like you just had the cleanups with my knees like just little clean up so sometimes it wasn't even a surgery like I'm having problem problems it's just like swelling's happening and get an MRI inflammation and

Yeah, little stuff. But it was like, it was small cleanups and shit that I had to get after this ACL that was just like, damn their maintenance. You gotta get like visco shots, just taking care of it. You know what I'm saying? Get your blood spun, put back in, bone marrow transplants, you know what I'm saying? Like it just, just little shit to just keep yourself, the regeneration in your knees, bringing back everything, you know.

So when you get like surgery, like the moment you go through surgery, do like, do like, Like the team started looking at you different because now you went under the knife. Like, you know, they started looking at the surge, you know, people are kind of like different. I think so. I think on the business side of the thing, if you were just a businessman. Right. And you like, take this guy at 26, never had surgery, no problems, nothing. Right.

I don't know how much I'm going to use this guy that I'm about to sign. Right. But I got this guy. He's 30. He's been through a couple surgeries. Mm-hmm. That's how niggas, I think that's how they look at it sometimes. You know what I'm saying?

Like, you won't see the difference in the two until the playoffs. Talk your shit. No, no, for real. Like, it'd be cool to have anybody with you until the war come. And then it'd be like, mm, yeah, you might, y'all might want to sign something over there. Y'all might want to go pick him up. He ain't going for that.

You can play for real. Yeah, all that out the window, that cool shit be gone. It'd be like, all right, it's time to play now. We gotta beat them. four times, yeah, come get Eamon, come on. Talk your shit, because they need you. The Hawks do. But they mean, I'm just saying, like,

I look different on paper when it's the playoffs. Like, during the regular season. You do play way better to play out, my nigga. I do say that. But it's, you got to, in the playoffs, you're not doing, during the regular season, bro, I may play, you got to think, I'm always going to guard the best player.

Right, they do, they do. They do. They do how you doing that? Take me in Cleveland. Right. Say we go on the West Coast. We go play Sacramento. The King?

Yeah. We go play the Clippers. I'm going to chase Chris Paul through at least a hundred ball screens. Right. That's back when I was playing with Cleveland, I'm saying. Yeah, because they down show Randy. And then you're going to have LA, who back then, who we had, that was when cold when we were there.

Yeah, I think that was when cold was there. Yeah. Who else we would? No, no, no. Cold was... Cove might have been hurt. But he was... Yeah, I think he was throwing him.

He might have been hurt. But I'm gonna have to guard... Who was over that? Deangler Russell. I'm gonna have to chase somebody. That's cool. That man could put it in a hoop. I'm done thinking about the snitch shit.

Oh, yeah. He can play. He can play. I don't know why he did that either, but he definitely could play. G-Code. I don't know why he did that. That's not even how he gave it up. The times I've been around him. That ain't how he gave it up.

He just ain't had the right chance. I don't know what. He tripped out. Any right. That ain't no new shit. Did. But yeah, I might have to guard him and I might have two good games. And then we may play Golden State where it's a T&T game.

I may not have nothing left. I got to chase Steph now and Clay. I'm not, I probably wouldn't shoot it the best. Right. You know what I'm not? Not even that. That's my job. Right.

And when I get exhausted. like that. My job is to tell niggas like, hey, gee, I'm gonna make sure that he can't get off, but I'm feeling it. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like, and that's where like the game get different. And it's like,

when you got the playoffs, now I could do that. I'm icing, but I'm playing you again. I don't have to guard a whole new style. Right, I got the same style for the same so now to lock you down. You want to play ball screen? We're going to play ball screen. Right. Okay.

Hey, you're going to screen dirty. Perfect. I see you Saturday. You know what I'm saying? That's cool. Like, I'm going to argue with the ref and make it a scene no more. I'm not doing that no more. I have an issue with this man.

We'll deal with it, bro. You know what I'm saying? We'll get to that. That's all. And then you go out there and play. I'm going to ice up. Like, I know, okay, cool. They're going to make sure they hit my right hip.

They think I can't slide right. All right, cool. I see what they are. Don't trip. I see what you on. But it's like some people. Some people don't look at the game like that. Some people look at the game like, did I make my shots?

I miss my shots. I put this. I don't look at it like that. I'd be looking at it like, damn. So Steph's gonna start every attack through the legs. Damn, okay. You know what I'm saying? Kimber gonna do a step back now.

He in a step back rhythm, so he on his step back. So if I take away his step, oh, okay, that's how I see it. Like, I'll watch highlights and see like, damn, that's three straight highlights. Don't give them the salt, man. Don't get them. I need to learn how to play, bro. Look, if y'all ain't going to pick me up, I might as well. You might as well.

Like I said, if I go, I need y'all to know how I'm coming. I'm going to start believing not give them the sauce, don't give it a fuck. Make them figure it out. Tell them shit. I'm with the energy, bro, like, for real, for real. If I can't use it, like, I want to use it right now. You see what I'm saying? Like, COVID hit.

I had to get a surgery. Circumstances was fucked up. But this might help a nigga in the playoffs right now. You just helped the hood nigga figure out. This is amazing, motherfucker. Watch the tape, man. Now, because this a hood nigga who was watching, they be like, that's what I got to tell.

Real talk. My circumstances are fucked up right now. Like, it's so many games within the game, bro. Like, even the shit, y'all was talking about calling the nigga Musty and all, like, that's. Psychological. Real talk, it's part of the game. You got to.

I've never even thought about that. If a nigga's 6'6 and all these wrappers is 5,6 and underlake, he aren't going to hit his tough-ass talk. Shut up, look.

I feel you. What's on top of the refrigerator, bitch? No, but I only used that example because the other day I asked my wife, my wife asked me what something was, and I told it it's on top of the fridge. And she was like, why would I look there like? She came at me like why would I look at you just be wrong. Why would you do that? Right.

You got right about that bitch. You know what I'm saying? It sucks, but I can't. I want to hear you talk about S550s. Superlegs. Shit that you can relate to. Like, I don't want to hear about stuff that I can't do. I want to hear about, uh...

You can't listen to shit. Some of this shit, but I'm saying, I can't listen to nothing. You can't listen to shit. When I be around it, it just be like, but don't nobody really get down. like that. I've heard people say like, I know it's just music. I just like it. I just like it should be sounding. I'd be like, bro, but you listen to it all day. Like, you're singing it to me. It's annoying me, bro. Because you don't even move like that. You're singing that to me. And it's weird. Like, why are you listening to that? And you're going to make you ruin your life. You're a good kid, man. You're going to ruin your life. What are you talking about right now? You listen to enough of that. You're going to transform. That's the parent in you. Yeah. Yeah.

You're going to do what you're going to do. You might dig into some whole more worse shit than that if I tell you. It has to relate to the music has to relate to your life. I just, I feel like that's what helped me. Like, people will be thinking like, you're going to make it. You're going to make it to a level of what you, you know what I'm saying? Like, I listen to niggas that told me how to get it. Told me stories how they got it.

My little cousin let me hear his mixtape. Going crazy. I ain't even know the nigga talk. You ain't know what? But he's talking about some real shit. No idea. Oh, you don't know what he's up? You haven't even heard of it?

No, no. You gotta bring it. I'm gonna end up giving y'all the tape up. I don't know. Like I said, like it's all, it was part of what I had going on. So my as I understand what I'd be on. Like, if you know how I'm coming, you'll, nothing will ever surprise you. I don't care what they paint until you in the media, nothing.

Once you see how I'm coming, you'll be like, I can't believe that, bro. I've seen him, no. I've been around him. I ain't, no, he's solid, bro. You see what I'm saying? Like, that's how I wanted to feel, like, especially with the music shit. with the music shit i stopped trying to make the hits bro i'm not gonna yeah i'm not gonna have the song in the club that's number one that's going because i'm not gonna talk about what everybody

in the club be on you see what i'm different yeah i ain't even know some different shit i just don't do that no more i did that at one point where i was out and i wanted to to to go crazy and stun off and do dumb shit i don't want to do it no more right i want to do some whole other shit. I'm in a whole other pocket and I'm cool with that. And I think that's why the music gonna come way better because Ma's gonna be like, all, cool. I ain't, it ain't like a DJ gonna be forcing niggas to listen to me and shit. It's just like if they play it in the mix, yeah, if they play it in the mix, they're like, damn, that shit was smooth, what was that? Oh, that's Imar shit? Damn. Yeah. I wanted to feel like that. Like, I don't, I want to see

if niggas gonna really rap my words. I don't want them to be like, oh, he's the best NBA rapper I've heard. Oh, word, what's the best verse he did? And Maas just be like, I don't know. Nick, you know that shit, the one where they had played it and then... And they're gonna talk about the biggest celebrity. Then they had the nigga, he came with the... Yeah, that one. Yeah, like, I don't want it to be there. I wanted to be somebody could come up to you like, no, like, spit a real verse.

Right. And be like, no, that shit was dope when you said that, like, that's half my life. You know what I'm saying? Like, damn, riding around with... Mm-hmm. Thotties and your rap. But that's what I did. I rap on this show all the time, and every time I throw tities in that nigg be like,

nigger! What a mixtape at. That motherfucker you get back to Aeros? That make it better. People remember tities. So look, think about it, right? You ain't gotta do the whole song. Just throw a titty bar in there.

My wife is a great artist. Yeah. Shout out. O.G. West Hatt and Tiana going crazy. Now, for her to do music, and you do music. Now, I know she support your music. You dig what I'm saying? So how does that transition, you know what I'm saying? Like even just being in one household?

Because now she's a platinum artist. She got gold, you know, hits. She's doing her motherfucking thing. Really got one of the best songs I love. You dig what I'm saying? So how does it feel like having a platinum artist wife just being supportive to your music? You know, this shit can be, this shit can get tough.

It's really dope, man. And honestly, I've been told her I was like, you ain't got to feature me on nothing. Like, I don't want it to seem like a force. I'd rather have my fan base to where it's like, I'm already doing a house of blues show, To where it's like it makes sense, like yeah, he's bringing his wife out. But when we was doing the album, because you know what I'm saying like I sit in on the writing sessions and shit

My pen is always her pen if I'm saying like sometimes it'd be like she be like no give him credit like he was in there helping me do the shit You know what I'm saying but I always felt like nigger did right up look he's going crazy they go if they're doing something They ain't knock you know we just gotta go down let no cook everybody put be in here You're gonna have me on tilt. You're gonna have me on tilt. You know what you? Yeah. Hell, buddy, fuck, man.

Oh, jeez. You know what I'm saying? I'm like, man, fuck the cameras. I'm gonna. Yeah. You start, man. Fuck the cameras. You're good.

You did, you know. Everybody's gonna be here. I didn't know we ain't. No, that's cool. But I'm like, yeah. I'm like, we got caught. But that's what I'm talking about swimming, man. Everybody ain't swim.

Everybody can't swim. Like, they can't swim. Like, they can't do. We all reach you. You did what I'm saying. Oh, it's all right, man. We all go reach for something in this motherfucking end. Fuck it.

Somebody got a point there. I got it as the world's 70% water. I am the spotter. Shoot that way. Man, get the man out of here. Get that guy out of here. No, but like I was saying, before I get, I forget. Yeah.

Like, she, she wanted like, While we was in that writing session, she really wanted me to try and come up with something for her to rap. And then when I like gave her the cadence and shit, I really was, you know what I'm saying? It was late, so my voice was all raspy. So she's like, no, hey, just,

why don't you just try and write something in it, just do it in that voice? I go to write and then they came back with the words that, wake up love. So I'm like, oh, okay. That's why one of my daughter. when I delivered it, I was posted like, I wanted to drink water and all that.

Like, that shit was one take to, I was like, yes, perfect, like, leave it like that. And I'm like, damn, gee, like, I don't even, I ain't get to clip my, like, you know what I'm saying? My shit, it really sound like I really woke up. Exactly, like, because she already saw, like, her artistry is more like, I see it. And once she see it, that's it.

That's it. That's it, she's like, they ain't gotta see it. They'll see it when I do the video. They'll see it. But she more so made me tap into people gotta see you, do it. Like, Hannah King always be telling me that, like, no, we got to see you do it, see you walk it, like, we got to see you deliver it, like, we got to see how you see it in your head, all that, because that's the only way we can rate you as artists. We can't really

go off, oh, here, click on this link, click on this link, click on this link, like. So Tiana's more so like, you got a video in your mind, she's like, oh, yeah, I can see it. Like, she listened to the song and she's like, oh, that shit sounds like you just on the desert, like, You know what I'm saying? With the brown cloak on and for some reason you shirtless. I don't know why you shirtless. We'll figure out why you shirtless. There's a reason behind that.

You see what I'm saying? But she just. She's visionary. She can see it. And it's like being around that excitement and that energy. It's natural for me to drop my guard up. Oh, I ain't going to go that hard because then everybody going to think I ain't focused. It's like little by little being with her.

It was damn they're like freeing me. Like, gee, nigga, okay, cool. You shut up and you acted like you didn't rap for, I, I don't know how long. Did you get the Sprite deal? No, kick rocks. You know what I'm doing? I ain't doing nothing but getting older.

What I'm acting like I don't like rapping for because y'all don't like it. It ain't cool, bro. Don't put me on your commercial. That's cool. Like, I ain't tripping. Like, let me, I'm gonna still build my brand to the point where, you're all asking to be on the commercial.

You see what I'm saying? Because if the album do good, now you same brand is gonna be like, oh, well, he hot on this end. Like, I don't know. They wasn't giving. We always believed in you. That's how it goes.

But it's like, it got to the point where that fear of it, like Tiana going to cross lines. Like she's not with the whole, like you got to, I got to remind her if we're going to have to, you know what I'm saying, the cameras on and shit. Like, it's just like, bro, this is what it is. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like we're going to have to start desensitizing people to it. It's like, do y'all can hit a, like you said, you could hear the microphone when somebody do something. Hey, Joe, stop that shit. Hey, cut that shit out, Joe.

I don't want to hear I get my eyes tweeting me all the time bro did you just say cut that shit out Joe oh my soul you wilding

maybe I'm like, real talk, my homie told me that. He was like, what if you just a rapper that made it to the league, bro? What if we just got it wrong?

And I was like, damn, gee, sometimes I'd be going to say that. But if I say that, bro, that's a hell of a mistake to make. I'll tell you that much thing. You won both ways. But it's like,

gee, real talk. I was short. I was five, six. Five eight in high school. Yeah, but this is what I was doing. I'm rapping, I'm in spoken word club, like I'm on the slam team, I'm nice, like I'm rapping. After we hoop, we own the blocks rapping.

Mons is dissing each other, we get into a couple of fights, like, that's what I was doing. And I went to sleep that summer, sophomore year. I woke up and I was six three, bro. God dang. What the fuck you go to sleep at? No bullshit. Who else was you? I ain't gonna lie, I need to lay in that exact man.

You, what creed is? You need 5-11, nigger, we definitely need to go. My knees was hurting, my elbows was hurting. Like my back, it seemed like I was never comfortable in the bed. Did you get him? By the radio actor, he turned into the Incredible Hulk over the summer. Me and my brother still, me and my brother had the bunk beds at the crib, so we had to take the bunk beds off. Then my dad had to take the front panel off the bunk beds so my feet could hang off the woodch-go.

Y'all had drunk the juice off space jam. For real, touch the ball. This is the special juice. His daddy was mad as fuck cutting that bed, baby. You're fucking keep growing. You get the blood test. Ain't no goddamn weight. Before I went on my AAU circuit, and I killed niggas, bro.

Real, I killed me. But I came on the AAU circuit. I was not ranked. And then I killed to everybody. I came back, and I was 15th in the country. So everybody was just like, he's going to the league. Then it was like my rapping. Like, you go back.

You can look at them old McDonald's All-American footage. I'm rapping there. I got my Buck 50 hat with the watch on it. Like, I was super like, dude, I'm from Chicago. Where y'all from? What y'all do over there? Yeah. Yeah, what'd y'all be on?

Like, and Maas was looking at me like, you don't get free shoes from Nike? I'm like, what, free shoes from Nike? What are you talking? Hey, man, y'all get free shoes? What y'all get? You know what I'm saying? Like, they had a whole different. They've been that good.

They've been ranked since sixth grade. Right. It's walking. They walk in the gym. Well, I came in the gym in a hoodie. You know what I'm saying? Some wards, some white crew socks. Look like you was running to the store.

Type shit. Take my book bag off and get busy. And buckle in there. Yeah, I'm talking to people crazy. And they're like, who is this? Like, where are you? You know what I'm saying? And they rank me.

I'm getting office from everywhere. You know, mama crying, dad crying. Like, I'm, it was like overnight shit. I'm like, damn, bro. I just was like thinking like, damn, am I going to ever get close to the I just woke up tall. It was weird as fuck. So if you a kid, man, you read sugar in your shoes, all that bullshit, bro. Just keep on really thinking hard about being, all I told myself, I want to be six-six like, joy. I want to be six-six. If I was six-six, I'm telling you, dad, I'll be dunking at. I'm throwing the ball up. Tico, let's find out. We just asking for the wrong shit. Real talk, but the energies work like that, bro. You're thinking don't energies work like that, bro. Some people ask you, you be surprised that, what your kid, when you were the kid,

what you tell yourself he was gonna be doing? This shit right here. You did? Yeah, I always knew how you'd be a comedian. Oh, you for real? I'm dead to fucking serious. No, you know, he fighting them off by you. But I've been a comedian since I was like four years old.

You for real? I'm dead to fuck serious, the first time I ever made everybody in a big-ass room left. I was at church, and I forgot my Easter speech, and they walked me all the way from the back of the church. And it was like, yeah, we're doing our Easter program. Man, man, I got the microphone. I was laughing.

Damn. I forgot my damn Easter speech. Mom, I forgot my damn Easter speech. And I stood that she had to come all the way from the back of the church. So the whole time she'd coming up there, I'm like, damn, damn, what's that damn speech? I know the damn speech, but I can't think of the damn speech. Man, got my ass whooped right in front of the church, man. I'm talking about everybody in the church falling out laughing.

Brigh we had to go home like ain't no going back in there we went from the church ass-whoop and crib but when I went back I was a legend they were like let him say something find that boy something to do right the Lord moves through him everybody had a better Sunday I did that way that's real though but it's like like him just doing that like saying I like that like telling yourself is kid I liked that I love that I'm gonna do that like I'm so happy that's what make I feel like that's what make me the man I am like saying I said I was gonna do it and I'm doing it right I told myself I'm ramping like you gonna rap you know

I'm saying if a nigga diss you won't dissing back right you know what I'm saying if it go down it go down if you you know what I told myself these things and then I got to some of these lines and I'm like oh I gotta get my contract first don't drop that but I'm like I should have dropped that bro because I just basically told myself you ain't good enough to do that and they still want you. At the end of the day, that's what Damien Lillard is proven.

Right. To me. Going crazy. Nice, too. He's like, I'm going to drop 60 to where, so what if I were at? I'm clearly doing something right. Right. You get what I'm saying? Like, and

I wish I was more tapped into that. Like, I didn't, but like I said, when my career didn't go to where it's like, you get 20 shots of game, you're the main guy. Like, I settled into playing the road because I'm like gee I could get a ring with mellow I can get a ring with brawn like that's what I was thinking I'm like gee I get to play with jason kear

Rashid wallis right if I don't shoot fuck it fuck it fuck it right she is my teammate bro like I was kicking it with Rashid while picture Rashid Wallace picking you up bro lit with the patch but it's just like it was you am saying like these is my hero like Jason key and my favorite player bro like it was like Jay Kid, like, hey, rook, I need you to go grab, you know what I'm saying? Because I tore my ACL, so I was like a rookie until I had finished my 82. So even when my second year in the league, when I had him as a vet, it was like, but it was like just for him to jokingly say, they really didn't have me do a lot.

Having Tyson Chandler, Jason Kid, like, I remember being in Chicago up in the stairs screaming. Tyson Chandler going crazy. I'm screaming top of my lungs, bro. And then I'm playing next to you, niggas. It's like, I don't mind if I don't shoot a couple times. You pay your dudes, cool. Part of me wanted to do the asshole shit where I'm like, no, fuck this, give one of shots.

But I feel like it went better because I got a ring, bro, and I got to learn, I got to know the game. Even if they politically don't give me my 30 shots, if we have a one-on-one tournament one day, y'all gonna see it. Nog gonna be like, why you ain't dude at the game? If you watch the games, instead of looking at the box score, you'll see I didn't touch it.

Through three threes, that'd say I went O for three for two of them was half-court heaved at the end of the shot. At the end of the quarter and one of them was a shot clock damn near a violation, but I got it off because I'm seeing if I could put it on the rim

to see if Tristan Thompson could tip it back in. I know I ain't got a shot at this, but get it to the rim. Like, some niggas would be like, man, I ain't doing that mess on my percentage. I could have been that guy. I'm smart enough. I could have told myself, yeah,

just make sure your percentage high and then you can ask for more money, whatever. But, no, bro. What I'm playing your road? Yeah, what if I shoot that 70, five foot in and go in and we win the game by three bro i'm shooting that shit like okay y'all gonna laugh cool y'all not champion that shit means a lot at the end of the day it is they're not fucking champion that is that's gonna close the envelope yeah your entire identity has been fabricated

Real tall, like, it sucks sometimes, though, because my eyes will talk their shit and you'd be wanting to tell, and it's like, If the coach let me shoot 25 of these a game, I'm telling you, and I'm a different ball game, too. You know what I'm saying? I know you used to that superstar, but if I was a superstar, hey, I'll run my kingdom a little bit different. You see what I'm saying?

They got all these kings. Like, that's what I look at this shit, NBA is the game thrones to me, for real. Like when Bleacher report was doing that episode shit, that shit was so cold, because that's how it really feels to me. Like, motherfuck all just trying to get to that iron throwing or whatever, but having, like, all these different guys that's supposed to be superstars of each team. and seeing how they run their kingdom. How you run your ball club?

But you're over there for a reason. For sure. No, you're gonna need a nigga like me. For real. You're gonna need a guy, let me say a guy like me so y'all can use the clip. You're gonna need a guy like me. You're gonna use it anyway.

No, I'm saying, but you know, if they put it on Shairo and they're gonna bleep out the nigg. I don't want you to have bleep out, so I want you to have an official, official movie. You're gonna need a guy like me, though. So why not, so why not go to another team and just take over? Just like, you know what? Train me to a team that really need, you know what I'm saying? Some fundamental just.

They need him. They would have had, I would have had to do that when I was 22. Hmm. It was like, I'm 30 now and I've, I've yet to have a team where I get to shoot 30 times. God. Devil? Huh? In the league?

In the league. Oh, no, no, no, no. You can go to college. It's my 30th game, man. I'm talking about, I'm talking about whether I'm shooting it good or I'm shooting it bad. You still getting 30 shots. I'm shooting 25, 30 shots. Okay.

Like, fuck a- giving you an opportunity to get you. opportunity for a free throw I'm shooting 25 of these bro what do you mean it's going up at least 25 times so even when you had the ball sometimes you was just like ah it's on him but that's what I'm saying a part of me a part of me was doing that a part of me was like I'm not in rhythm you know what I'm saying sometimes I'll make the extra pass because in my head J.R. just shot four times He made two of them. If he hit this, the rim's huge.

You know what I'm saying? I'm already knowing me and you only gonna get, we're gonna share like 10 shots in this shit because we got Brian and Kai and Kev. So, okay. You know what I'm saying? So I'm like, if we only fin to get five of these, which means I'm probably gonna get this one shot

and I ain't shot the ball all game, J.R., you didn't shot four of these. You know what I'm saying? Knock this fifth one down. and the crowd goes crazy me if i hit one anyway okay cool okay mom hit one but you already got the energies that's part of the game some niggas be wondering yeah you shoot that shump i ain't shot the ball again boom he dumb look he think he think he got influence boy don't you know you a lane you're a lane okay how much you score we're gonna win about 20 you're lame you're lame

you're lame you understand like that's cool that's the shit you'd be saying to get content to There's a niggas. They're at the free throw line. There's nigs that scored 30 and think they're cool after the game. Bro, either you're cool or you not. You're cool or you not. If you score 30, you can score 30 or walk into the... I don't watch a million women walk past 30 points.

You gonna give me some money? No. Who is he? No, women see it too. Like, no, I like how he can get down. He ain't going for that shit. Like, I like how he get down. Like, at least the women I'm looking at.

Exactly. That's crazy. Everybody who know. Anything. You know that the 12 men on the team is the nigger with the hose. He ain't touched the floor since Oklahoma. That's how to go. But he didn't have had bitches in 23 cities.

The cold ones. And then you're 12 of. You the nigga hit 30 over and over again. They keep walking past you the buddy that don't get in the game. All you get to talk to is sports center and go to the room. People want to feel, bro. They want to feel. I know a million, a million comedians, Joe.

Every time I walk past this thing, I'm going to have to laugh. You know what I'm saying? Every time, I'm going to give, before you even do some shit. Like, that's how Kevin Hart is to me. Like, hey, before you even say something, Joe, I walk up on you, I don't know what you're going to say, so I'm already in a giggly. Like, real talk.

If this thing has got a microphone, if he got a microphone, I'm already like, look on here, Nick, don't he look over here, look over here, Joe. I don't even want you to put me in a joke, Joe. I ain't going to be able to breathe myself. No, no, leave me alone, bro. This is the funniest natural nigger you will ever see. He ain't got to even say shit to make me late.

I can see this nigga, and he don't even know I see him. It's just the way that nigga gonna have his shirt tucked in with this big-ass belt buckle. This nigga might have $500 in stripper one. Go to the club, throw two of them bitches, leave it, $499. Thought that game, we're straight. Like, this is the funniest nigga, bro. You don't get a no fuck.

I've seen this nigga not pay a motherfucker and win all the money at the dice game. Won't even get a nigga at $40 back. May the nigga wait for the guy. That's the type of nigga he is, though, man. It's just one of the niggins that just make me laugh doing ghetto shit. Regular shit.

The nigger did get a shit. The nigger have on some $1,000 shoes, kick them bitches off. That niggas sock beat his goddamn long. Like, that nigg just don't give a fuck, man. Who? You? Oh, yeah.

I see he talked about this nigga all the time. No, he's talking about you. I'm like, this is. I'm like, yeah. You sound like me right here. Yeah, I'm like, that's my story. They're being around this, nigger. I'm like, that's my story.

I see this, that nigga, you can't be long. I'm like, why is that? I'm like, you're all real, nigga. You are. No, I know. No, my socks usually match you. Yeah, my don't.

They don't give no fuck, bro. Nobody's what I got going on, man. Right now. I ain't got on no stop. This is what I'm saying. That you can get this. Wherever this nigga at, man, that's he gonna be himself. He don't get it.

That's the best shit in the world, Joe. But you know what? You're the first NBA player I ever. I want to say you were part of my first NBA friend. Yeah. And then not only that, he was like, bro, I fuck with your music. And not only that, you were like, fuck that. Off of the drop meat tape.

And I'm like, nigger, I got to be on that. I ain't ever. This is like shacking the food. Dude, I ain't never been on an NBA nigga mid-telling. I was like, what if we're gonna rock? What's the one y'all did? Shit, how long ago that been? That been about five years.

What do we call it? I forgot, but we, we, the nigga, I knew it was crazy because we were going around the NBA circuit. A lot of NBA pay, we're like, hey, boy. That's shit, that damn track you deal. Ema and Nick! I'm like, oh y'all, y'all.

Everybody was called on, man. But I was like, gee, when the nigger played this shit and then you put it on World Star, I'm like, bro, we go act like this just went everybody like that ain't it ain't nobody tapped in it was just weird to me I'm like it's weird I think it's just people saying this person do that and since I couldn't even do that right I ain't fin to check into the other shit that motherfucker doing you know what I'm saying like but it was like I was saying if you fuck with that man and he do music he probably going to tell you

a little something about himself now if I go click on your page and you just wasn't talking about shit right I've been like all right he rap and I feel like My mistake early on was I was trying to make hits, so I did that. Right. But I made music that it was like, I'm trying to be something for the fan instead of just being you. Yeah, I'm like, gee, real talk, I never wanted to do this, but my first video that I tried to put together, they was like, no. Right. Like, so, no, you can't come like that.

No, no, no. Got me true. Yeah, but I was just like, bro, this is the world. This is how I got here. Like, without this world that I rap about. I'll rap about. I wouldn't be right here. I'm not here, bro. I'm like, you wouldn't even like how I play basketball. I probably would play it soft as fuck. I probably would want to run around and shoot three. I would never want y'all to remember me as a three-point shooter

specialist. I would never want y'all to remember me like that, bro. No, I don't want to beat him. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, I don't even, at, like, at 30, it makes so much sense. And at 22, it was such a, you know what I'm trying to please so many different people, many different brands that I'm just like oh they man it was crazy but it's like gee was it worth it because like y'all still didn't give me the 80 million dollar sprite deal or something that I was you told me like man you so personable man you can't have no shit cursing you can't be cursing on your reps you can't be doing you can't that was the reason me I curse now and I do how I move how I move and my daughter

she's smart as hell like don't curse you know how to edit she could listen to my whole verse learn the verse and edit out the curse words on her own they got to play her edited music and lie to her about weird shit yeah she probably understands how to curse cool what I want her to do lie about it and act like she don't know what's going on but then go to school and curse up a storm now I got a call I'm gonna get a call from the teacher and I'm a heck all they all get mad at her like I wasn't cursing when I was in sixth grade tell you what shocked you about your kids curse me I made it okay right right only thing shocking about fast enough that you're just

your kid's curse is hearing them curse and used the shit right yeah and saying it just like they say that they use the curse words in the right content it'd be impressive you're like man let me get my goddamn ass up and clean this fucking room up for they come in here bitching at me and shit like whoa when you start talking like that but that's exactly what's gonna happen you clean this motherfucking room matter fact come out fuck wrong it's it I'm telling you man I'm telling you man I'm walking past my son's room. He's playing the goddamn fortnight.

He on the, if on him, no, I hear him. He got the dog. This bitch killed me again. My team ain't worth a fuck. Damn. Man, you're just a dickhead. You saw my, you just going. I was like, son, turn that off.

You too emotional. I'd have let him live. Go ahead, son. You locked in right now. Keep going, keep on, nigg. Let me talk to him. You're a whole-ass bitch. Add to it.

Wake your dad up, bitch. You're going to jump you, huh. Too much of a good father. Ain't anybody fucking with you, isn't it? Fuck you mean. But you know what to pick back up on your shit, right? I know why people, like how you said it, like motherfucker went over their head

because the average person is below average. The average person is definitely below average, but they one-track mind. So they wake up and robotically here. And you know, people listen to music systematically robot. You know what I'm saying? They like robot. They feel like you do basketball, that's it.

You can't do nothing else. I don't put you in the box. Boom. Even if you want to do something else, they're like, what are you doing? You're supposed to be playing basketball. My guy, my brain works at an all-time high, my nigga. I'm out of one-track mind, and I'm here, there, there. I can be there.

You just matter if you can't be here, there, there. But guess what? The people who can be here, there, there, and there understand what the fuck I'm doing. Real talk. So I understand. So we get so trapped in trying to plead the one trap. Fuck them, niggies.

I'm so done. I'm doing it to your entertainer shit. Well, I'm shun. Oh, out of 24 hours did sell million views. And 20 cell million streams. Because now we got 20, 7 million people who does here, there, and there. So I just want you to stay down and stay consistent, because I've seen it from back then.

When you told me you did music, I wanted to check it out. I said, man, this nigga just don't rap. He's rap. I'm hearing the cadence and flow. I got to get to this. I got, I got, I got to tap it because ain't no telling what type of energy we can create. You feel what I'm saying? So just for you to be on that platform and I was still on the uprising and I'm like,

damn, I got an NBA superstar listening to my shit, nigger. nigger real like tap in what i'm saying real energy's like when you say something that just it's like jahs like i would say that you know i'm saying i could hear i could hear a verse three niggas got a verse on a song and it's like okay this man verse the best i know the club gonna love what he said there's some bird shit but this nigger verse like j i picked this man up on the day to day like hey bro you got choice i got mine we all what you mean what you mean like hey g come oh yeah i got a half on it come on let's go man you got some you got snaps on the petro okay we're good we good but i i make sure i pick this man up because he'd get down like me right

you know what i'm saying like that would be my that'd be my day-to-day homie where a girl be like oh man like you ain't got no friend um i got my friend over here cool this my man yeah that's my man He ain't going to say nothing goofy. I can lead a room. He ain't going to say nothing goofy that ain't player. He ain't going to say that. He's going to make us look good. Cool.

That's my guy. You know what I'm saying? Like, you always going to have that. We need those. You're going to have that verse that you say that once I feel like that, now I could be a fan of your music. You know what I'm saying? I could check for your music.

Like, I'll never forget. Dirt came out with this same what you want. And the first thing I said was, I feel like out of all the 300 guys, I'm like, I feel like, I feel like he got the biggest trampoline to go off because he already understand how to make a song that structure for the radio

and still get his shit off. Right, right, right. But he'll damn near sing it with that auto tune to where it don't sound like he rapping your ear off, even though he used to rap, you know what I'm saying? Like, that's how we, you know what I'm saying? He heard him first, but we was like, it was cool to see he also has this side

and then he tapped into this a whole new wave of it. So when I listen to Dirk now, when Granny Crib dropped, I was like, gee, I'm gonna forever be a fan. You know what I'm saying? Just that, I had roaches at my granny crib. Yeah, ooh. Jumped into the streets on accident. Yeah, yeah.

Police snatch me up, they and I asked me shit. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Just like, regular shit. Like, bit, you know what I'm saying? It's like, gee, I was, we all was, at some point all at our grandmama house where, yeah, a couple of us, you gonna stay, you know, yeah.

She stayed with my grandma for a little bit, and then this person stayed for a little bit. You might stay there a week. You know what I'm saying? Everybody did that in the summer. But all your cousins, everybody was there. You got your friends, they friends, you know what I'm saying? Now y'all come.

Every once in a while, you get in a car that you should not be in. You're going to see some shit. You should not be on. It's like, I didn't want to do this. Right. But now I'm used to this. Because this really my man. Like, it's like you was this scary,

And he's like, damn, this thing on the block. Like, man, gee, let's walk the other way. But then you know my brother. Now you look at me like, oh, that's like my little homie. Ain't nobody messing with my little homie. So now it's like if you want to ride to the store, yeah, you might be riding illegal as hell. But to you, it's just normal.

I'm not fin of how you walking by yourself. You're a kid still. So boom, you were, and it just, it got to the point where it's like, damn. So if I go do some, like, basketball, shit, my folks to act like, I don't know. up because when we look at the crowd I can see them I can't see a lot of people I could see a lot of friends that it's like we friends but I during a game I would

never be able to remember you at the game right I'm looking I'm searching for my dog well yet right I'm searching to when they went down them car rides that right right then remind you of where you came from you get to really see where you have made it to when you see that same you know element present and where you didn't progress to if the NBA ever let it be that standard right you remember the high school games the standard room games. If the NBA ever let it be standing room only again how I used to be G. And I get to do a dunk and a crowd of people is right there. I'm going to be a totally

different ball player. And really, the ref's going to have to let me get away with it because they're going to be like, damn, like we can't lose that. The fans love that when he does that. You can tell he made that shit. He was like, Nick, fake ever, Nick, motherfucking life with another that's my whole game, though. When you're talking like, nigga, I swear to God, I. my mother boy she going to be practicing the dump but it's like it's like that energy of like people being like i told like having these guys over here i know the niggas that's betting on the game i know i know like you know what i'm saying like not the not the real best yeah not the Vegas bets no no that's what i'm saying not the Vegas bets and shit he don't know i don't do

spreads my nigga i'm trying to be no i'm trying to do gold championship bro you ain't go save no point getting that gold thing he know the niggins who work but 40-60 I'm like I'm talking about I'm talking about your guys that yes since you was playing in the park yeah they'll tell this random homie oh that's it he ain't the best play around here he mine the best player around here they'd be boy no he not cool put a hundred bands on your man right let's go straight niggas like wait wait shit it was like 4060s that yeah I just had a hundred rubber bands wrapped around you know how street they're I'm saying I'm saying everybody grew up with this it wasn't illegal back then

because ain't nobody think I was gonna be shit you see what I'm saying like and I ain't saying it was a hundred bands oh look you're talking about when you weren't shit name you want to what I'm saying I'm throwing a crazy number out there just today they got investigation but you would you know now I've been playing you playing in the league now so I'm used to say like a hundred bands like now you got to act like you don't know but this niggas that bet 20 bands on shooting contests in the gym you know what I know niggas that used to play in the league got to come in there with 20 bands cash that be like now I still could shoot this thing if anybody want to shoot this thing I ain't gonna tell you who they are I'm gonna hustle you that day but they're real like man they're coming in there with a louie bag and my I'd be like why you got a louis bag because I got 60 bands say I'll bust all y'all what you turn out and then be like do you got 60 bands to put up like you know what I'm used to that that energy

But that energy is dope when it's like, I like that pressure, that fight or flight, fillet of my homie got 20 bands on this, and he think I'm going to beat this man one-on-one, and I have to win. And we're going to split it down the middle. He's definitely giving me a piece of it. Go on, stupid. No, I'm telling you. Like, but I used to love that. Like, y'all have a play, anybody ever played job for your shoes?

Hell not. Now, these bids ain't coming off, but we'll play, though. You ain't hear what I said. I've been doing comedy the entire time. But that's what I'm saying. But even while I was hooper, I was ramping while we walked on eating sunflowers eat. Straight comedy. I ain't never had it.

I am the black mamba of comedy. Nothing else mattered, bro. I used to get up and talk shit. Boy, you hugged his head. Fuck everybody. Let's go get to school. Get this shit. Breakfast.

Lunch. Dinner. When the teacher said be quiet, I used to whisper the nigg. Boy, you ain't never going to do shit. Your mama, oh, you got blackhead, cheap-ass shoes, the Matt Jordan, got Jord dashes on. door dashes on, coming in shoes, girl, all this type of shit. I was ignorant everywhere.

I was ignorant while I wasn't supposed to be. I was ignorant at church. I've been ignorant. I was so, I ain't even cashed in on all of yet. If you think I'm ignorant now, wait till I get the opportunity. This is just, this was all my audition. The light word. I'm telling you.

You ain't seen the nigga be ignorant like I'm gonna be. Wait till the real money come. You ain't even heard this shit. shit that I got in the vault. I got some shit so fucked up. I have to pull it out of here and now and then just to read it, make sure it's still fucked up. I can't drop this shit.

I got a, what? You feel like him with the music. Like, no, I can't put this in out. I got some shit that the world. I'm like, ooh, don't say that. I'm talking about the jokes so cool. I can't say that out loud. I just have to read it off the paper.

You put it back? When you gotta hear that, bro? That's in a safe place. How you put it? How you put it back in the drop, bro? How you put it back in the drop? How you put it back in the drop? Oh, my Lord.

Please let me back in these streets. I got a month. I can't do it nowhere unless I'm getting paid a lot of money. I'm telling you. This bitch going to fuck the game up. Go crazy. I'm glad I do comedy because I would have been selling cocaine. Ooh.

But shit like that. Trying. Uh-uh. It's shit like, even shit like that, bro. like I hate I hate I hate acting like I don't know who had to do that right I hate acting like I don't know the thing is that like you know how I feel to bring your homies to a college campus and then they sit you down and be like what you doing like you don't know what you getting into around here I'm like these my people which y'all come

out like oh I know but they looking at me like I'm I'm like gee this is like these my family yeah like bro this is who I call this who to the game sitting in the crowd like you know what I'm saying I what I'm gonna do like hey man y'all don't smoke weed because I don't want them to it's so what they smoke weed before they got here so what like they had to watch the game man so what they supposed to drink a big beer if they drink a beer and they hit in red in the face everybody cool with it but if they smoke and they're chilling you mad but if they smoke a square they could smoke a square outside it's just like in my mind

I couldn't figure it out I'm like gee I came up here late at night I was in the gym And the same thing is that they say is bad influence on me. They got me in the gym. They rebounded from me. A bunch of street niggins rebounded, kicking it out. You know what I'm saying? I ain't had these certain plays down, but I wanted to know the play. So I got these niggas running the offense with me to where they now understand.

They understand the basketball. You got street niggas in the gym. Hold out, nigga. Wait, now come through here. You got to come. I would love a smith. I was playing for Georgia Tech, so. Off the screen.

I can't tell what I'm supposed to do, tell. You got to come around. Now off the screen. I watch, you got to come over there. And you get that too. Come here, come here, come here. They all coaches. Oh, man.

You didn't even came to the game yet. You got to come off the screen. Hey, bro. Oh, wow, they're doing that. They're like, and tuck your elbow in. When you come off the screen, you come through his shoulder, bro. You come straight through him. They go right on the round.

Don't cut it. But it helped me. They give you that motivation. They got to come to the game out of that. That gives me. me a confidence of saying no I've seen like I know where you're supposed to be yeah if if he could remember it you should be able to remember right that make me think but I can't I can't I can't I can't come in like who else who

else can I get on my team my teammates at Georgia Tech who I'm a hit at after I went out to the club they say come to the gym come to the gym with me you gonna go hell now could you probably be slizzes of the hell right guys about real talk My coach of them called me, it was girls and heels on the sideline. My homies there, and they was real life, like, my big homie, rest in peace to him. My name, my Billy Taylor was like, who are you going to be? You know what I, yeah, we was talking shit at the club. They were selling, you know, a couple of a little, you know, a little boo, you know,

for Boo and Gotti. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's my big homies. Like, niggas, they like, you know what I'm saying? I'll shoot you anytime, you know what I'm saying? I remember when Wayne had me on the tour bus, like you just gave North Carolina 30. I'm telling you, Shum, I really could not get down. I really could.

I love how you did. I told him I put that on the game. Harrison Barnes and was on the bus. I told them, but y'all ain't do that with Shump. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, they want to come to the gym. They're like, Shump, can you open the gym? It's two in the morning.

I don't care. I can't hit a hoop, bro. Right. I'm going to the gym. But I also can't tell my teammate who's struggling to write a paper like he you know what I'm saying he got a study right now I can't be like hey man come to the gym we're gonna be in the gym like now

I'm being detrimental to you the niggins mother came if you told him little way but that's what I'm saying I like papers and shit like I don't like tests I don't like you test me to tell me that this is what the answer has to be because nine times out of 10 I'm probably not going to agree with it unless it's like math or some

shit like when it be open ended I just be like that's wrong but I know it's see but that's wrong but I'll mark it for you on your little dumb ass scam I read it, but it's some bullshit. I don't agree with this philosopher at all, but cool. Like if that's what my mama going to hang on the fridge, let's get it over with, type shit.

If I can get that done, like, I wasn't failing shit. I ain't never been no academic, nothing. I've always been at tech. I think I was Dean's List for two quarters, like two semesters. I really wasn't trying to. I coulda, but it was like, gee, I'm trying to hoop. I can't, I'm not faking it. I'm doing the papers, I'm doing the work and shit.

And if I really went hard and like, really went hard for the A, I could have got it. But I just was like, first thing come to my mind, you know what I'm saying, explain myself in the paper, hand it in, whatever the grade is, I know I could play. You know what I'm saying? Like I could hold on to this information. I'll memorize this for the week. We're going to knock out this test. I forgot all that shit.

Right. in I kept what I needed I kept common sense and shit that I needed to apply to the world but I don't remember that shit right I remember going to the man told you to come off the screen hi come on the screen you got to go oh damn all you keep here and try to take the test right like that's what I would think of like for real though like like girls would really be texting I can't believe at all in the gym like that's crazy y'all y'all be doing that i'm like i do my people do like they'll do what we want yeah they used to be doing that man kg will be in you're slapping the flow right now son you have a couple drinks now you don't

They made way more than the league than that school, Nick. This is what I'm talking about, man. So I can't eat no bucks. Like I'm saying. Can I tell my Goody's sorry? Oh, yeah, you got to tell him. Quite on the suit. Quite on set.

No, no, no, no, I didn't told it before, but it's, it's, Kobe came out of high school and was like, I never understood that, like, you know, I used to deliver it, but it was scary looking Kobe, because Kobe, like, looked through you. It's weird. It's, like, ooh. So, anyway, Bowen-chilling, the way he said. But he was, like, they asked him first, they were like,

so what was it like to score 81? Like, what was going through your head? And he was like, absolutely nothing. You know, we were down. And we had to win. You know, when I looked up, I had, I had, what, 76? Like, he was talking like, I don't know. I was sick in the head.

I had to win. If you go back and look, I was losing. I wanted to win. And he just went off. And he was like, I never understood people saying to me, don't put all your eggs in one basket. He's like, why can't I just, you know, that basket don't work when eggs break. Who said I can't make more eggs?

He was like, what is that? mindset. I don't get it. And that shit nigger, like it's like, don't teach me oh, you got to hit them books and shit. You know, don't get me wrong, you got to go through school to play

ball. Right, right, right. But if I tell you I want to play ball, gas it. Right. Gas it. Right. You know what I'm saying? Don't, don't lie to me and be like, oh, he's the best player in the world. No, but gas it, yeah, keep going, you're going to have to work. You're going to have to work hard. You're still going to have to finish your own.

work to you know what I'm saying you can't fluk you still got to be able to put the jersey on you got to be able to put the jersey on so boom you got you got to learn a little bit you know what I'm saying you got to know how to write something off you know you don't have a lot of money if you're going to make it to the league like talk to him like that like make it like make it well what you're going to do if it don't work out you know you know a large percentage of us don't make it like what type of shit is that right they speak up a man's not going to make it right that dude's not going to make it you're going to put it in your hand Not if his parents are saying that.

Like, that's half the battle, bro. What you mean? I ain't going to make it. Like, my dad was like, all right, you're just going to have to do it. Like, you're going to have to work. You're short still. You've got to be able to use your body. You got to be stronger.

You're going to have to get in that weight room now. I'm telling you. All right, you're going to have to be able to dump. I'm telling you. You sound like a black car. Hey, hey, them boys can jump. You do it real bad. Hey, you hear what I said?

Look me in my eyes, huh? Hey, the boys can jump. That's my father. You're jumping. But you got to get to jump. Hey, and that's him. And that's him. You're sitting there like, yeah, right, man.

Real talk. And when your father said to you, though. Like, I remember when we went to the, I went to my first little thing, I was playing on the little travel team, the hood team. And they didn't show up to the game. We went to Wisconsin. Me and my dad already drove. They didn't call nothing.

And I had to play with, like, my little brother, my homie's little brother. my homie that wasn't supposed to play and he was just coming to watch and some kid and some kid out the some kid out the crowd that lent somebody some shoes that he had in the car so we let him play

I had to play a real team and I was like my I told Pop like bro what are we even doing like you know what I'm saying and he came up to me and was like I already paid for the tournament the only way I get my money back is if you win you telling me you can't meet them

I'm like pop they got a whole team they got warm up song dog what you? This A.U type shit bro what you? You know what I'm saying? That's how I'm looking at them like bro you got me with my little brother bro this nigga he don't even want to play he just like happy to put a jersey on type shit like but he wasn't into it really he joked no the two three zone we had set up bro

they're laughing and shit like we're about the duty nigga type shit like well we're about the duty digger My little brother looking like, yeah, like he's 10 years old. He catch the ball. I'm like, shoot it. He just throw it. But I'm just like, if he shoot it and it land here, I can get it type shit.

Like, bro, no bullshit, bro. I beat three teams. I got to the finals and lost. But I beat three teams, Dolo, like 50, 60, whatever I had to do. I was just doing it all because my dad looked me dead in my eye. I was like, so you telling me somebody over there could stop me? And it was the challenge, like, nigga, I ain't say all that.

I said, yeah, yeah. I said team against team, we might lose. You line them niggas up. I'm clearing it. He, like, didn't clear it. Fuck you're talking about. That nigga was out there bawling with the like Mike Chucks on.

But during the game, he wasn't even, like, really coaching. He's like, it's okay, it's okay. Like, but he's knowing you dolo out of that. Right. Cali your opinion. Put it in the hoop. Like, I don't want to hear it. Like, we already drove two hours.

Like, you're going to do this to these people. And it was just, I don't know, like, but when it, like, that's real to me. Like, that was like, that's how I got here. So I'm like, when I'm thinking about parents, I'm like, dude, why would you tell your kid, like, to have a backup? Gas, whatever they plan in. That's why so many kids get to college. Like, what you want to do? And I don't know what I want to do.

That's because somebody told them to go to school till they figured it out. And, no, this nigga might really like video games. Let that nigga play video games. There's a bitch of check over there. He could learn how to really build a video game, fool. before and back, cool, learn about video games. He like cameras, he always picking up your camera. Boy, don't touch that, no, let him touch,

tell him what to do with it. He like it. He might be the best photographer ever. He might got the eye that you've ever had, even though you're a photographer, whatever, gas it. I watch Junie pick up stuff all the time, Joe, and she just get good at shit. We got our gymnastics bar.

This is what girl doing flips and routines. I'm like, gee, I didn't teach her none of that. I don't know, I do none of that. She's making moves, but she's going on YouTube asking Siri, hey, Siri, pull up some gymnastic girls. What outfits do they wear? Mommy, I need a little ear time. Then our mama like, I'm gonna get you a sparkly one.

Then you know what I'm saying? I'm like, just gas them, gas these kids, let them do whatever because that's all I was like, then you all just had niggas that you, I know if, well, I don't know if y'all was hooping, but I was hooping. That's right. So niggas was hit me with this. Hey man, after they would see me play, hey man,

stay in school, try and stay out the streets. I know, but just stay out. out the streets, but don't never put that ball now. You're like, you don't want to do this. I'm doing it. I wanted to do that. Do that. You do that.

You know what I'm saying? I was at the party when my homies, we don't flush the nigger. Ah, ah, holy, they, they get out of here. They finish off. You get out of here. Get him out of here first. Right, get him out of here. I'm like, didn't why these my homies, bro?

Because they like, you're not going to get in trouble. You got a chance, man. You know what I'm saying? You got a shot. I ain't never been that good. I was dead a little. I have never been that. You got a chance to be something for us.

Niggins was like, yeah, you don't want to do this, but you ain't going to do that either, you got to figure something else out. I played ball when I got locked up, and they were like, yeah, take his head to jail. That's just how sorry I was. I was like, I play ball. They were like, we don't give a fuck.

This nigga said, play for your shoes. I ain't never had no shoes that a nigga wanted to play me for. Y'all got you keep him. No, it's just a disrespect, eh? Yeah, but see, a nigga ain't even take the time. I remember playing a dude. I played the dude for his Vince Carter's,

and I never could wear them because they was too small for me. My homie got them. You just walk around and put them on your feet. I put them on my neck. Oh, this nigga that made a chain out of niggas shoes. Hey, but you said niggas in the street used to always tell you to stay in school

like you was going to have a good game on Friday night. Like, man, fuck school. But they be doing that. They be like, hey, man, you stay in school. Because they know if you stay in school, they really just telling you at least eight to three we know you ain't in trouble. We're going to tell you that.

That's really what they're telling. Eight to three, at least somebody got a, You know you good. It's a chaperon. 8 to 3, you got a chaperone, you like basketball, cool. Now 3 to 6, you're occupied, nigga. You might be tired. Go home.

You got to eat. You ain't got no money, so you got to eat. Mama go cook, you got to get to the crib, you're going to be all right. Stay at school and keep playing ball. And I realize like, gee, I don't get to the house till it's late. And you're out of the way out of every time. And I'm tired, so I'm going to do you think they should pay college athletes? No.

Really? I like that. It's stopping. It's stopping. If they would have paid, listen, this is how I feel. If they had paid Mike now, you could have paid. You could have paid. Don't pay.

I'm saying? I feel like, why should these kids get paid and get corrupted early? No, bro. You got to play pure basketball. That's why people still like college. It's pure basketball. It ain't no kid with 40 million in his pocket that's going to, you say something to him.

How much do you make? The crazy part about it. the nigga get to the league don't even be that fast sometimes but even if you think they don't get paid do you think they should get penalized for letting a nigga buy him some chicken wings and shit like that you know what I mean I can get paid but the nigga bought me some hurls and now I can't play no more yeah I think some of that shit is stupid but they don't tell you the truth they're the NCAA is not like that they're chasing niggas and shit for that shit it'd be sometimes be you need to do some dumb shit you know what I'm saying either you do some dumb shit

you constantly in trouble and they just It's like, we can't do it no more. We got to slap you on the wrist at some point. You know what I'm saying? Like, but they're not really looking to disqualify guys and shit. It's just they got to put that rule in there because there's so many people that'll give you 100 bands, 200 bands, street money and nice clean money on the flip

because you got to pay them back because remember when I gave you that, they really protect them players, you know what I'm saying? Not even just street money. You may have a large corporation, you know what I'm saying? Pringles may say, hey, man. I feel bad putting that on Pringles. I like Pringling. I don't put in no money, bro.

They ain't not going to pay me. They might. That's cool. They ain't know you like Pring. If you don't fuck with me for this real niggie example, at least I said Pringle. At least you got some. All good press, bad, I mean, all bad, any press is good press.

Yeah, that shit. Whatever the car dad, whatever them white girls see. What did this start in? No, for sure. You mean to tell me a muntled stuff? Listen, no. You mean to tell me you, you mean to tell me your mind sharp and nobody fucking reached out.

How many cringles? Maybe it gets to. Maybe it gets to that. So all the niggas with money talking. What did this happen? I feel bad though. The Kardashians gave me that all good presses, all presses, or whatever.

Whether it's good or bad, like, whatever. But if I, I don't, forgot the example. No, you were talking about if Priggas wanted to get you a check. No, you were talking about, you were talking about. Oh, Kier getting paid, yo. Bensady's crazy hell. If Pringle wanted to, if Pringle wanted to, let's get him some Pringles.

All right, all right, go ahead, bro. If Pringle wanted to give a kid, money now knowing this is an investment later. They don't want a kid getting into the league and now your first check is getting divvied up. The league is all about that balance because they've had so many guys come in the league and you're taking care of all your homies

and my they did this and that for you. But if they put just that fear in you of, you can get disqualified, now you even have a way out to tell the homies that's trying to do it. You may feel pressured in, I don't want to take money from you you starting to see like this man trying to like have me under his wing where you know what I owe him a check you just be like man you know what I can't get disqualified bro like you know what I'm saying

they gave you a wall so it's like if you can't deal with that wall man you got a issue you've been broke your whole life you're gonna be sure yeah I mean I still think they should get some type of stipend though because maybe they should get maybe they should get something later on whatever they make so much money off them college aft maybe it's some shit maybe they should do some where to take your colleague, the money you help win the college and, you know what I'm saying, the boosters, however that does. Maybe they all get a percentage of that, it divvies up, and then five years removed y'all get the money or some shit like that.

But it just can't be, you see it in your account while you're a college kid. It's just turn you into a different animal. Right. Like, it was different for me to have dropped 30 and then still broke. You know what I'm saying? Like, it's something about that grind that if I, I got cheesy. If I got 30 and I got bread, what I'm doing tonight?

Some dumb shit. And then it's crazy part is you got 30 and you do got bread, just a loaf of bread. That's all you got at the room is a loaf of bread. That's it. You're going back to the room making straight bread sandwiches all 30 points. Peanut butter, no peanut butter, no jelly. No bread. Niggas was cutting bread down the middle.

Nicky mouth stuck together. Right. From earlier to date. No, but I was, I told you, I'm an entrepreneur. I told you, I'm an entrepreneur kid, man. I was top ramen, you know, with the little Doritos on it and shit, flame of my hot, so you were stacking. Throwing the meat on that part.

You got to cut the hot beef. No, no, I'm a ground beef guy. Ground beef, guys. Oh, I can't. I can't. I was a boiled hot dog kid, man. Yeah, sir, excuse me, I can't cook no ground beef. I don't burnt all that.

I know that kid. But see, that may be, that made me feel like I know this. My cousin, my cousin would have boiled, he wants a boiled hot dog. That's what he wants. A boiled hot dog? That's what he wants. That's, Lizzie right there. That's what he wants, gee, like, growing up, that's what he's on.

Like, might be like, hey, man, pause. He'd be like, do whatever you got to do, bro. Give me a hot dog, boy, that motherfucker. Give me a Polish, man. Give me, y'all get it. I get it, I get it. Give me a Polish, I get it. They be doing that.

They be life in the Paul shit. I like Polish. That's how they mean. Give me only mustard on my shit and put onions on it on my soul. Give me, I want a little bit of that, that little burnt line. I need that on mine, baby. Thank you. Burnt on the bowl.

i'm trying to make my point you get all y'all funny shit no not having no bread scoring 30 yeah scorn 30 you all good at that you man i'm with you bro we're keeping in every since you know like that's crazy you got some emotions you got that's crazy that's why y'all get paid to do this shit no no no no money see you told you He just found out them niggas were cold. This nigga, yeah. Y'all official as fuck, y'all, I'm steady. We need the championship ring.

Hey, we need the championship ring. We just look like that. I'll bring the head one day. I'll break the head one else. Yes, sir. I had question for you, though, like, what's that moment in the league where you just knew, like, nigger, I'm that nigger. What was that moment?

Like, is there got to be some moment when you play that let you know, even what you have in the perspective you have and not giving the fucking being a team player. What was that moment when you just like, nigga, I'm in the league, I'm up. We played, um. We played, um. Well, first, it was my first bucket made me feel like that because...

First one to ever? Yeah, my first bucket I did like this little in and out and then a pro hop. Somebody found me and my first bucket was an and one. And I just, something about it, like, you know, we always say three a hard way and shit. And it was just like I felt like it was so... That was my life. Like, broken play happens. You know what I'm saying?

Some bullshit always happened. And I end up getting control somehow, and then I have to make something out of nothing, and it turned into something better than we wanted in the first place. And I'm like, that's like my whole life, bro. And it was like, that was the first time I scored. And it was like, I had a moment where I, like,

punched the little posts under the rim. I punched it, and I'm just like, damn, that shit just blew my mind. It felt like, deja-bole type shit. Yeah, I was like, damn, I'm here, shunty. And I'm on the free throw line after that. like, oh, you turn that, you're into a layup, you turn. But they didn't understand what it was for me

to where I just started talking my shit. And then after that, I had hurt my knee in that game. Sprang something, and they told me you're going to be out for three weeks. They're like, that's, yeah, you're going to have to sit down. And I came back in like a week. I put the brace on and I was like, fuck that. I'm already in shape. It's old.

Fuck that. I'm 21 years old. Fuck that. Let's go. And I played and I got a couple steals and I got dunks. And I got the chint because they booed me. when I got drafted so I got the chance to like yell at the crowd so I was like I wasn't holding back I was saying what I wanted to say man fuck y'all y'all

y'all wanted him fuck him like maz was thinking you thinking that I'm like talking shit about them but I'm like talking shit to the crowd like bro y'all they need want me why y'all why y'all clapping gee what you clapping for you mean man you fuck with you like yeah I ain't I'm on the frito line saying anything and they say what you say what you say what you say what All right, I fuck around a Mr. Frito, too, trying to talk too much shit. Like, what? Man, you ain't never, but I've been waiting.

I've been waiting, bro. I've been, I watch your footage more than you. Fuck. Fuck. Ah, shit, that's cool. We still going to win. That's a nigga. That's like, dude.

My eyes be mad. They're like, Shump, what you're talking about right now, man? You, you three for eight. So? Think about a little guy 40. You mad. You mad. You man, they didn't pick you up.

They picked me up at 17. They didn't pick you out. Blah, lame assed you are lame. But that's how I was playing because I was like at that point, I'm like, y'all don't even want me. So what I ain't trying to impress y'all right now. Then I fell in love with the city. But it was like, I think it was the game we played. I can't say who it was.

I really don't want to start no beast today. After I finished my last contract, then I start really revealing. Right. Like who niggas was, yeah, I don't want to do that. But at the time, there was a better draft pick. played him he was not a better draft dude you know what I'm saying and I had that moment to just confirm the niggas like I'm him right you're saying like we was on the road too when I'm looking at the crowd like you picked him huh like y'all picked him Joe no he ain't that he I'm him I'm him

I'm him bro like I don't even I don't know if I'm classified I don't know what I am honestly like you him him I don't know the category. You're a champion. You're a champion him. That's how I felt. He's a champion him. You're telling me we had gutter, gutter in the ass.

Some guy named fucking Matt Germain. All I know, man, is I feel like way more people in the world can relate to somebody like me that you don't know how to turn it off or you ain't, I'm just the one that got in. Like, I got, I played the right people at the right time. It lined up. I caught a growth spurt. Like, it all lined up. But I kicked it, like, 80% of black people that do. Right.

What y'all do? Go who? All day. Then go play football with your homies. If they play football, like, you know, I was playing baseball. I don't play baseball, but I could knock one out the park for the show because my homie play. Yeah, I can't, I don't play football, but if you throw it up there, it's not a lot of niggas that's going to help jump me for that ball.

Right. You know what I'm saying? You got one of the craziest dunks ever, nigg. That's what I'm playing. Not many niggas, like, like, this shit, Odell Beckerman and shit, you know, like, I'm trying to do all that. Like when we was playing, I was trying to catch paths like that. Odell hands just like, shake your hand and shit, touch your, that damn bow on. You're like, oh, how you doing?

How you doing? That shit, irregular. That's what I'm in. That's how I don't mean. That's how I don't mean. That's how he called that shit. It was ridiculous. But I always played whatever.

always play whatever the homies, whatever we doing, we're doing that, y'all like rapping, we're rapping. We got a rap group, let's rap, fuck. And then he was like, yo, you rap, rap, rap, yeah, I think I've been rapping song with the kid. Right. You know what I'm saying? But anything we was trying to do, we was gonna do it,

because it's like, gee, if we shoot enough of these missiles into the hell, we gonna hit something. Some, fuck, if I shoot 30 of these bitches into a house, you telling me ain't nobody gonna get hit? Somebody. You see what I'm saying? And that's how we felt. Like, how do we kick the door down and get past this?

Like, why I don't wanna see my roof. I wanna see my roof leaking no more. I wanna see that shit. How the fuck I'm gonna do it? Boom, I don't know, they said I can't. Ain't nobody made it from Oak Park. Ain't nobody made it to the league. Cool, I'm still shooting that missile.

Oh, ain't nobody rapping. They ain't gonna, fuck it, we're shooting that. Right. Ain't nobody got no clothes in line. We're shooting that. Fuck it. Like, I don't care, gee, however many. You put enough real estate in the sky.

Somebody gonna have to rent something. You dig what I'm saying. You gonna have to rent something, my nigga. You're gonna have to shop with me at the while. I burn CDs. You see what I'm saying? You see what I'm saying? I go do spoken word with you, I'll rap with you, I'll hoot.

I can make clothes with you what you want. Baby, your car stop, you pop the hood. Shorty, I know how to do this. Look, you ain't even know this stick right here. If you go to this line, baby right here, you're straight. If it's under that line, baby, this is bone dry. You're killing your car. You know what I'm saying?

You need to drink water, this need to drink oil. You see what I'm saying, let's go in the store. I'm gonna walk you through this. You know what I'm saying? A lot of niggas don't know how to do that, bro. Bro. They can't change their tire. They can't change a tire.

Real-life NBA 2K created, nigga. This nigga gotta do everything. You can't change the tire, bro. We've been a AAA. You don't even know you got a tire under your car and come standard, nigger. This is a SUV. You're fucking serious. That's the whole point you got this, motherfucker, bro.

It's right here up under your car. Fuck you mean. Your shirt that clean, bro. You can't get out the car. You know what I'm saying? Like, my eyes are really sitting in the car in the NBA. My man, I've been off the call triple air. I had nobody seeing me.

Seeing me change a tire? That's the most regular. It's in the world. I'm not gonna pay this man $500 to be a better man to be, bro. Damn. My father would never respect me, my nigga. If the car got a spelt tire, G, I'm changing the tie. If I got a jack, if somebody got a jack, we, whatever, bro.

No, but I'm saying, I'm saying if you got a call for somebody to come up there, what if I got to tow the car to somewhere? They're going to have to tow it. You're going to have to pay for the gas to get to whatever place they need the tires from. And you got it to do it, but I refuse. But it's like, bro, do all of that when I have a spare tire that came with this, however much the car was. Like, all athletes I'd say is going to drive in a hundred thousand range car at least.

If you spent a hundred bands, you don't think that bitch come with a spell. That shit came with me. I don't know that motherfucker. You call the flat all, yeah. Real talk, you need foursmen. I'm gonna call me for that bitch get flat. Mr. Miller, we feel like you're gonna experience

When we had to fix the flat, like my mom, I remember my pops walking me through it in college over and over. Like, man, you know, you just got to get the nugs off. Come on, man.

Come on. Come on, man. Changing time really is the easy shit. To be honest, I like changing time. It make you feel like a man. I swear, I'd pull over for a motherfucker. I see it. They'd be like this.

Real tall. help my boy hey uh you have a little you have a little truce right good samaritan niggins hit ter terrier to the good samaritan something so simple but if i don't do if i don't know how to do that like i feel like i should be able to do that i should be able to like it feels so good to not be in the league just because i realize how much i paid people just because i'm not there

little shit like you'll check your invoice somebody that made you don't told them to run get some light bulbs and start some new light bulbs all around the crib and it'd be a $250 job. Niggins, them light bulbs ain't cost that goddamn much. Right. But you paid for that being time. You paid for him to actually have the tool that fit the screw on your light to take the whole fixture down and make the black fix.

He ended up paying the what, 25 home? It's just like, bro, I'm out here paying all this money and doing all this and it's like, it felt so good for the, for Corona to hit and be home and realize like, damn, I I'm thinking in my head like, damn, I ain't got a job now. I'm fin of having to have to figure. Yeah, I'm going to have to. All right, cool. Let's see how I'm going to do this.

Let's see how I'm, how I'm a deal with if the NBA don't never come back because this shit get crazy. Like, how does life work? Okay, because that's the realistic thought for me as a father. Like, okay, how do this shit work for him? Yeah, but I start realizing like, bro, I ain't got to pay a lot of y'all nothing. What you doing? Get the fuck out of my house.

Right. You dropped them goddamn life. I got it. Don't worry about it. Why don't you got that on my kitchen. I cook. D.C. Get out my bed. I'll sleep for myself. And the motherfuckers didn't work for him.

Like, man, he got to get back to work. Damn. He's talking about fine motherfuckers and cut the money off. I need that life. Don't go wrong. Don't be wrong. Sometimes you're going to need a nigga to do some shit. Mr. Shumber, you don't want me to fuck with the life.

That what you said? You don't want me to do it? You don't want me to do it? I'll play with it. Even that, though. Hey, no, even that, no, my nigger, my nigger, I had a big ass, I bet a big ass Blue Bay Shepherd, right? You realize how much it costs to have somebody

that's going to walk them all the time? Nigel. Just because it's like, he a big-ass dog. I can't have Tiana grabbing this nigga. He can rip a arm off. It has to be a man's man. Right. But I had to pay, like, I had to pay a dog walker because I ain't at the crib.

When I ask for the dog, then I can't pay the bill. because I'm all the way over here doing whatever and Junie want to see her dog. You know what I'm saying? It's just like, and it's like this nigger can't keep flying everywhere with me. At some point he's going to be by himself and I'm going to have to pay somebody

or have like somebody that can, that ain't scared of him, walk him. You know what I'm saying? And it's just like I start seeing like, damn, I ain't got to pay a lot of people nothing, but that's like an applause for my father because it's just like, thank God you. For lack of a better turn,

I know his ladies in the room, Thank God I'm not a bitch. Hey, thank you for not making me a bitch-ass, nigga. He went with his hands. Bitches? It's some what? It's some what out here? Some female dogs.

No, it's a, I want the other word. It's so bitchy. That's shit hot. It's so bitchy. It's just, like, it's some dudes that just, it's like the concept of manhood is wrong. Right, they can't get their finger dirt. I'd be like, bro, you forgetting this is your whole demo. This is the only reason they like us, bro.

Like, if you can't do this, you're never going to have a female, bro. You think it's, you're going to all. Your route is the wrong way, bro. Your bitch like you cutting grass, nigga. You just don't need nudge. She wants to see you sweat. And do it before she say something because you want the grass cut. Nicky, you don't want the grass cut?

Or you don't own the house. Talk your shit! Ah, that's the difference. If you want it on the house, you just waiting for somebody to do it. When you own the house and you see that shit get up, and then homeowners sit you with, hey, man, that shit making the block look terrible. You better cut that shit.

You go, oh, I got to cut this shit. You know what I'm saying? And then you could pay another man to be a man for your girl or you could just. Ooh, you're talking to shit. You're kidding me. Niggins at the house sweating. And they bitch looking at like,

law for real. Yeah, a nigga heard that and be like, let me go and get their love moves straight. Let me go ahead. I'm telling you, it's just like the basic concepts of men. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like the Instagram shit ruined it for us.

like it raised it for women women get you know what niggas like niggas be like trying to get in where they fit in and shit like no we don't live on the ground bro that ain't where we live in talking shit i'm saying that that that car fuck up you live there bro you did get under that hood that's that's that's your weird bro you're saying that's your commercial right there shirt come off you sweating you're saying you use your nice shirt you just you don't want to touch the oil with your hands so you're using your nice shirt ain't you go do that with your shirt that's expensive shirt you're gonna do that with your shirt that's expensive shirt you're gonna do that's a specific shirt you're This shirt, man. Nigger drive-at-home shirtless, man. You know what I'm saying? That's your demo, though. That's how she gonna fall in love with you. Like, it's a lot of niggas with money. Ain't a lot of niggas gonna fix that car.

Fuck you mean. They ain't gonna fix that car. They're not gonna vote that law. They don't know how to fix that toilet when these motherfuck to drop that ring in there. It's a rap. They don't know how to fix that. Oh, the drain.

It's gonna go down the drain. Can you get that one fuck out of the drain? Can you get that one fuck out of the drain? You wanted nothing. I ain't gonna lie. I ain't gonna fuck with the bike. know what I'm saying, though. Can you, it's really, you'll think it's nats,

you'll think it's some shit. I ain't saying it's nats, I just don't want to fuck up. I don't want to be a fuck up. You don't want to be a fuck up, but you're gonna allow this nigger who might be a fuck up to do it. No, I trust him because he's a man. All you got, it don't even be learning. I don't know how to cut grade.

He ain't go to school for, look, he ain't go to school for it, but literally, if you have a nigger come over one time and the whole time he there, you just watch. Like, let me see what this nigga do. This nigga will unlooen four screws on each side, take that pole out, go like this, the ring come out,

he put the faux shit, the full little bolts back, and you got to pay that man, 500. You did this shit, bro. Let me tell you what I did. Shorty, I'm looking like, I'm not paying that. When I saw a nigga do that for us in college, we had to call the technician dude, because we didn't want to do it, because we like,

you know what I'm saying, this is an institute. If we fuck up doing it and we fuck it up, we're gonna have to pay, we broke. We don't know what's going on, we're on scholarship. We're like, we're gonna call them to fix their shit. But I sat there at wipes and I'm like, that ain't shit. I didn't have to call him. I bet he'd think less of a man of me.

Like, he probably thinks like this little young punk. That's crazy. Like, you actually got some in this dorm before, you can't fix this. He probably looking at me like, this soft-ass little dick, right? Thanks, dude, because my grass definitely probably look at me like that, because that shit'd be high as a muscle, but I ain't never cut grass in my life. You ain't never had grass.

And it's something. You got to have grass to cut grass. I'm gonna sit it, nigga. I don't know how he learned. I'm gonna wait till all we get off camera. Like, who taught you how to cut grass? Chicago's, you gotta know y'all. You gotta put the oil in.

Nah, fuck that. You gotta hit the choke. You got to figure the choke. Nope. Cause y'all niggas who know how to cut grass take that shit too serious. And then look, don't pull the screen too far for your father. You'll punch yourself in your shit. I feel you.

You got to play with it like, okay, because he goes. Real tall. But soon as I cut the grass, a nigger like y'all that know how to cut grass and come over and judge me. Who the fuck cut this shit? Man, you ain't got no line. no lines or nothing in your grave. And we also did that. Ask my dad, like, hey, can I get, you know what I'm saying,

enough money to two canks of gas and we're gonna cut grass. We gonna rake leaves. You know what I'm saying? Little shit that it's like, you're not gonna do it because I could see this nigga come out every day with a Bluetooth in the bins over here. You know what I'm saying? Like, we gotta walk past this shit all the time.

This nigga's not gonna cut his grass. Hey, Mr. Davis, you just rake them leaves, you get that grass and shit. You gotta pay the messages all the time, man. You know what I'm saying? They fucking, that's a little. 20. You know what I'm saying? Then they fucking around tip you sometime. It go 50, man. Y'all little dick, say, y'all cutting grass. That's dope, man. Y'all stand out of trouble. But it was

like anything to get the bag, bro. I feel you on that. That wasn't my hustle, though. I didn't come to old people grass. My name with a free. Just cut it. That's different types of traffic. You know what? I'm just going to cut it. I'm just going to cut it. Real talk. She ain't calling the police. Real talk. Well, that's good smart. You got to know how to do that shit, though. He kept the people off.

Right. Because really, she could have been on bullshit. It wasn't never. I always hustled, but it's just that hustle was never one of grass, niggins. Nah, I ain't never had to cut no grass. Fuck that. But it's like, I had a grass cut an empire. Huh?

Oh, yeah, I know. You didn't. You know what I mean? I had. I cut all kind of shit. I had, man, that was my, I hated. But, don't, it's people that real life. It's hard a grip.

Oh, hell yeah. And you wouldn't give a shit. Can you hear me? That's what I'm saying. This is how much I hate cutting grass. I didn't cut so much grass. I wouldn't give a shit if I ever cut grass again for the rest of my fucking life. For real, I love cutting grass.

I'm gonna feel my yard over concrete. You got the, you got the push on-or, or you got the ride lawnmower. You ain't been through what I've been through. You ain't seen what I seen. I got it. I got my ride-lamo, I got my weed, ugh. weed, uh, tremor, I got my, my head's tremor. I got my, I got my head just, when I say, bro, I cut, grab, real tall.

I cut, nigga, I even start giving my yard the halline, Nick. That's what I'm saying, I ain't, not. You hear me? Once you see the nigga y'all with the halline nigga, I'm pulling up, like, hey, boy, I ain't just coming your grab. I'm giving that bitch a halline. Yep, that's what I'm saying. As soon as you come to my house, Thab, Chico, where you're headlined that,

nigga? You know my shit, gone. That's already known. But see, I tried that shit. I tried to put like a whole shelf up in my house. And you know before you put shafts up, you're supposed to feel for the stud. The stud that's in the back.

So I thought I felt it. Man, I'm, naked. I drilled so many holes in my wall, man. Nick, I had to get my whole wall done over. I'm like, man, I'll put eight holes in my wall. I'm talking about, but I got mad. I got mad because the shit won't go in. I'm like,

zh-z-z-z-d-z-d-z-d-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z- But now you know how to do it. No, I just called my Mexican, so he can come do that shit. Sometimes. Sometimes you need help. Fuck the bullshit. I put eight holes in my wall.

Me personally, I just feel like as men, if we can't learn, if you can't keep picking up shit and keep learning and doing shit, you're going to, you just forget yourself. Like, you ain't going to realize what you came up doing, like your whole life been learning and... Yeah, that's the worst shit ever when you look at some shit. Like, shit, I couldn't do. I know they're tired looking at your ass came on. Yeah, I just...

Like, hey, bro, you ain't going to win no, no, you ain't going to win those drugs with these. No, no, you're going to win a drug with these. No, these are old names. They don't wear those.

I promise you, niggins don't even have that title. You got it. And I'm gonna tell you, I got hip to how nice you was with the rapping because we did the BT Seifer the same day last year.

And everybody was talking about how crazy you went. They were talking about, man, y'all niggas went off, but that nigga Ma'an Shampa did his thing. I don't act like they like this shit more than now. They were like, niggia, y'all killed that shit. They were like, who else killed it? What buddy name? Playback you was. Hey, man.

Like, niggas, you know, you got something to call, like, hey, my nigga, they're up there. And they still drive, and you're like, hey, stupid, motherfucker. Bus or left, you're going down.

I just, I always thought that would be cool for you to feel like, you know what I'm saying? Everything is like how you felt at home, like, if I could just, because I ain't got to live in Chicago since I was 17, but I would love to go home. You know what I'm saying? Sometimes I'd just be missing home, and I'd be like, how could I bring that back?

I don't know how you have that bad. You ain't never just wanted to grab a little spot in Chicago yet. I'm just not ready. I got to be doing with hooping. Right. I don't know if I could hoop and live in Chicago, but it just... Hawks! I don't know, it just, it would be too much.

If I did, I would have to play for the Bulls. You can play for the Hulk. You can play for the Hawks. But if I'm saying if I would play for the Hawks and then I come home to Chicago every summer, like, I don't know. I don't know. We got spots all downtown. That puts you somewhere. You're too familiar with the city.

I'm way too familiar. That puts you at the film. Shit, you stayed up. I knew I didn't trust myself and never go. I'm like, man. That's what it is. Yeah, if I live at the crib, see, I'm gonna feel like I got super powers. So y'all can't say nothing.

Y'all can't move. I don't move and y'all can't do nothing. Y'all can say whatever here. E-Mah. Hope's. I'm. What number would you be? What number would you be?

Because they're going to blow him up. Superstar. Eamon's a championship. He's going to bring us all the champions. Man. Go play for the hawks. That's probably the big of you to get back. You're going to be a little brother again.

I'm like, buddy, hi, hi, me too, brus me again. I feel like if you come here, you can actually do exactly what you said. Like, they don't really. They don't really, I mean, cause, don't get me wrong, my boy's gonna do anything, ice-co, trait, you're doing that thing, but we need leadership, we need guidance, we need somebody actually to guide that team, and you know exactly,

well, first of all, you have to ring, that's gonna put you above everything, what's going on. That's how, that's how I was in Sacramento. In Sacramento, we was bawling, gee. We need that. It's a vibe that I'm gonna, I'm gonna bring a vibe, gee. Right. You know what I'm saying?

Like I said, I'm gonna make it feel like home to me, gee, I, I, sometimes it might seem like too much to people sometimes but whatever it is like I just feel like I'm gonna get down how I get down if they rock with me they rock with me if they don't they don't but I told you I love that moment of that you know saying I've treat this shit like a girl on the street I love that moment when you gotta walk across the street hey hey shorty you guys it's over there her home girls right there she might do you like a lane right or she gonna do like how the girls do at that party when

they dancing and then you grab a hand and they dance for a second and they stop They look at their friends and see if you, hey, then they turn around, that's that moment of truth. And they turn around and they like what's going on, then they really start, I love that moment. Right. You know what I'm saying? I took her L in that moment before. Well, she just left me sitting there like, oh, no, I don't do that. I like Lice.

I'm in the church. I'm not dancing. You gotta go to the bathroom when you get shut down. You're like, you know what? Real talk. Let me reset. I don't even like the beach. bathroom. I kind of like the whole, like,

niggas, oh, she turned this down. Like, I ain't tripping. Like, I win a lot. You see what I'm saying? So it just be like, when I take the L, it'd be like, cool, joke on me. But at least y'all see, it's, this regular nigga shit, bro. Way more wins than lost.

You got to laugh through the loss. Shorty miss, she might have been, he might have took the L on this road. I know there's a couple of Jones that's probably like, damn that nigg was trying to talk to me. So I thought he was lying. I thought. shit lame as fucking they should stop saying it real talk they'd be like i know he was told he told me

that he wanted me to come out there and he said he said i could and i just i thought he was running games now bitch do you e-man come on but it'd be like you see the you see the shit now and just be like they'll be like damn he'd say all this shit about tiana woo i believe everything i said she like that you come in like that like that after while she just like It's really him. That's just how he get down, and I like it. So cool. And it was like, she believed everything I say.

It's like sometimes my fucker just got to really put it out there. You got to have that moment where she might think you are lame, bro. Or she might think you are lame today. You don't know if you're going to see her tomorrow. If you see her tomorrow, she might have seen me in my, you know what I'm saying, in my sweats after I worked out. And she wasn't fucking with me in the duress. That's the bad plan.

But then you might see me walk out the stove with, you know what I'm saying, wearing that shit. With that sauce on. Smelling like I'm supposed to smell. You see me the next day, and you see me the next day, and you see what I hop in, you're like, oh, oh, yeah. I got it all right, man, you can to catch that exhaust pipe. That's correct. It's a rap.

But it just be like, though, I love that moment, man. Like, that's, if anybody ever asked me, like, why do you be rapping and shit? Like, I'm chasing, I'm chasing that feeling, bro. I'm chasing the feeling of standing on the stage, because that's what basketball is. Right. We're standing on the stage. Going crazy, trying to see if y'all fuck me. I just want to know if y'all fuck with me.

That's the only reason we care after fans is that why you think niggas is doing three-point celebrations to y'all fuck with me. That's all it is. And it's like with the music shit, can I say something that make all y'all niggas feel like, yep, I know that I, that's exactly how I felt. I walked in here the exact same way. Can I say something like that? Or can I not?

Can it be a bunch of niggas be like, that shit was trash? But is it going to be trash in a week when I said? Right. It's going to be trashed when I'm 30 now? They match up. Is it going to be trash? I don't know, but I got to put the real estate out there. Like I said, at some point,

they're going to have to rent a house. I keep throwing that in there just so y'all just go on as much. Own as much as the real estate as you can. Talk your shit, man. Own the land here? They ain't making no more land, y'all. You know what I'm saying? They ain't making no more land.

Just tap in. Talk your shit. Get an acre for like 20 bands. You know what I'm about to get? I'm about to get a motherfucker chain with my land on that bitch. I'm gonna have my shit with my property's on that bitch. I'm gonna have the whole leg. I already had the niggins titles.

A whole bunch of titles in your chain. I already had the nigger flowers on the helicopter and take a picture of the shit. Damn coordinates to your land. You have my shit right there, a nigger land. You might have a chain with some of my dirt on that bitch. Yeah, damn, you need to watch that motherfucker. Some dirt from my land, iced out dirt.

That's going to stank. Dirt-ass neck-ass. Oh, man. You're going to need some of that NBA soap for that. You're going to need an NBA bar so for that neck. You're going to need your bar so for that neck. Fuck you're talking about. I'm coming.

You don't need that smooth groove bar so for that, man. Be the first thing to put my land on the chain. Just know that. You heard it first, motherfuckers. Get the real estate in the side, man. Scott, all of, when I do be talking on my music, they be always asking me, like, who I'm talking to. I'm just talking to that young nigga that was like me, bro.

It's more me in the world than your favorite artists, bro. I guarantee it. There's more niggas that wanted to hoop, rap, make the clothes they win, had all these ideas, and at some point somebody told them that my ideas was a little too big, just focus on hoop. And they did that. They still want to do this. They just, right now this all.

they know. I just was that kid, just like y'all, like, I didn't know which one was going to hit. But I'm like, I'm doing them all of, you know what I'm saying? Like, I don't know what's going to hit. But when I told my mom I was going to get that house, I didn't say it had to be NBA money. Right. I didn't say that. I said, I'm going to get you this house. I said, I was going to go to the lead. I said, I was going to get the ring. But I said, I was going to get you this house. I didn't say I was going to get you this house with NBA money. Right. I did. But if I didn't, I still was going to get her that house. And that's the, that's the hustle. That's That's the drive that I want people to resonate with. Like when they listen to the Joy Ride,

that's the name of project, the Joy Ride. When they listen to it, I want them to just like, just turn that motherfucker on, do what you gotta do. You gotta light your fire, light your fire. You gotta drink your drink, drink. But when you listen to it, G, just don't see me in a jersey for a second. Just pretend I ain't even make it, bro. Like just, you know what I'm saying?

Like, yeah, I hoop, bro. But it's a job, just like everybody else got a job. I'm saying, like I just want niggas to just turn it on and listen to see, do I fuck with him? Don't ask, don't say, let me listen to this basketball player that rap. I want to see if he's the best NBA rapper. Now you wouldn't, you ain't even listening to me. You're just seeing who you like more. The perception is all this thing is.

You fucked up, yeah. He's the basketball player that's rapper right now. Yeah, when you hear it, just. Right, because everybody knows Scotty Pittman wants the greatest NBA rappers. Scott of Pippen sounds like a slave. You're the only one that heard that makes a man. Oh, you all ain't heard Scott. You're the only one that heard Scotty did.
