Starting point is 00:03:39 when you think it's standing ten toes down as artists to fight for your rights, even when it's not looking good, but just that you just stay down. Without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, make some noise for De La So. What's up? Thank you.
Starting point is 00:04:01 First of all, brothers, wow. Believe it or not, you know, when we find, We pay a home and so... Case I lose my section, Nate. Ah! My bina. It's in case I lose my section, Nick, I need something to fall back.

Starting point is 00:04:58 But God damn it, we're on fire. And names keep flying through, and I don't know, it's not enough time, it's whatever. All I know is the second day loss was mentioned. The whole room was like, yes. Hell, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:12 It was not even a discussion. It was like, oh, no, we got to happen. Like, and that's not really happening for everybody. You guys, I don't even know how to describe it to you. You know, you guys are probably not really older than me, but you came in the game before me. So I look up to you guys. Like, you guys paid the way for all of us.
Starting point is 00:05:33 Like, y'all be on royalty. You're actually the first nice guys. I haven't listened to. Everybody else was NWA, killer shit, fuck your bombs, this, this, that. I remember selling drugs playing potholes in my lawn. And I'm a buddy, buddy, buddy. And so it's an honor for us to have you guys
Starting point is 00:05:54 because that's what this show is all about. You know, the reason why we got involved with the podcast because he was like, people ain't telling the shit, right? And then you got invalid people. Trying to make valid points. No, no, like, who are you? Like, trying to critique.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Anyway, I'm not going to do that. Listen, de la soul, bro. It's a fucking honor and a half to have you guys on the show, man. We truly appreciate you. Truly, great. You love y'all, me. I know we love you, too, but I've just got to, I got to explain it to you on a,
Starting point is 00:06:26 there's different explanations. You guys are on a different level of explanation. I'm going to go somewhere. It's sad, but I'm going to go, you know, our brother passed away. Right? And so we all know that when we die
Starting point is 00:06:41 there should be an outpour of love. Right? I'm talking my wife all the time. I say, yo, if you had fat Joe died, get back. Does anybody who ain't never big a mark? They're finally going to be like,
Starting point is 00:06:54 I'm a big him up. Let's say the truth about this guy, right? But your man died and the outpouring was legendary. And did it surprise you that he got so much of an outporn because even me, my shit was like teared up. My message, like I watched people who don't big people up,
Starting point is 00:07:15 big him and y'all up on another level. Was that surprising? For me, I don't, I wouldn't say it was surprising. I mean, we've been blessed from the beginning to travel all over the world. So we know and we're humble enough to see the effect we've had gracefully enough on people. It was just a blessing And I feel like a lot of people
Starting point is 00:07:38 They were ruling for us Like they was like, yo man Y'all was going through your situation With that, the label and all that And y'all got your Your masters and da-da-da And right for the finish line Lost them
Starting point is 00:07:50 So I just think like it was that Everyone was already in with us From that context And so it was like damn You know the underdog Kind of Yeah It was definitely overwhelming
Starting point is 00:08:00 To see the Everyone we came up with everyone that just in the industry come out and they had that same effect. You know what I mean? It wasn't fake. Yeah, one of the most outpouring
Starting point is 00:08:15 of sincere love that I had seen in the industry myself. You know, you guys are respect is that, you know, when you were a man of respect, when you lived on this earth, traveled everywhere you were, and you guys are just men of respect. You are who you are,
Starting point is 00:08:31 you trailblazes, you pioneers, You make whatever music you want to make. And then finally there's a moment that, unfortunately, it's a sad moment, but it's a time where you go, yo, let's say what we think about these guys. Let's let them know. That's how I felt from the outside. And I know you was dealing with your brother, you know, that's blurry.
Starting point is 00:08:54 You know what I'm saying? Sean C here, big up Sean C. No, that's true. He was when big pun pass. And that whole shit was a blur. You know, no matter who's calling you or showing you love or whatever, you're like, this is crazy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:06 You know what I'm saying? But that was beautiful to see. Jada, you got your... I'm kicking it, man. Cabin' in the sky, New album. No doubt, brother. Executive produced by Pete Rock. Coming out on Mass Appeal, part of the Legend series,
Starting point is 00:09:22 some incredible features on there. What was it like just making this album, especially, you know, but Dave not bad? You know, how did it feel? What was the mistake? I wasn't. For dudes that don't understand making the album, show them a little bit of the process
Starting point is 00:09:38 and, you know, the feelings of recording this project. Well, it's like some of the music we had because originally we was supposed to do this album called Premium Soul in the Rocks with Pete and Prine. Oh, wow. So it just kind of, for whatever reason, just never really got off. This never happened.
Starting point is 00:09:57 But we had stuff in the can, some from Pete, a little bit from Prine. Peter from Massapil and Nas, they came to us. And it was like, yo, man, we want y'all to be a part of this legend series. We would love for y'all to do this, but y'all got to have this album ready by this year. So I was like, yo, let's, you know, let's do it. So we saw what we already had kind of in the can. The thing is that we had stuff from Dave, from other producers that we work with Super Dave West.
Starting point is 00:10:24 We have some from Jake 1, the rock cocaine flow on the grinded album, stuff like that. So we felt like, you know what? We can't just allow it to just. just be Pete and Green, we need to add in. So we don't have to now take Dave's verses off and add it to some other made-up shit. We didn't want to do that. It's the hard shit.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Yeah. Yeah, man, but Dave, he was with me. Like, seriously, when he was making this shit, he was right there with me. You know, and I heard him with me. Like, Dave would always be like, your merce, man. What you wrote is dope, but you could put more that bullshit on it. Like, he would say, like, you know, put that personality.
Starting point is 00:10:58 And I kept him in my ear like that when I'm in the booth. and I was like, I can hit it harder, and Sean C would be there. And then you'd be like, nah, that was a good take. I'm going to, nah, nah, I could do it better because I just heard Dave telling me now, do it again. And stuff like that. And I mean, like, just picking choices for different styles
Starting point is 00:11:17 and for the album, like I felt like Dave was right there while I was right. Fuck, you know what I'm saying? And, I mean, usually when he was physically here, we did a lot of that where me and Dave didn't have to be together. Like, we just so in sync. And Dave was just such an ill nigga where like I would come in and be saying my rhyme
Starting point is 00:11:35 and he'll just put himself under the pressure listening to me in the booth and he'll just bang your shit out right there and then connect shit. So the process was just like, believe it or not, for me it wasn't hard. It was just like I need, I just knew that I was on one.
Starting point is 00:11:49 Like I had to prove like we can do this shit. We're going to do it for Dave, you know, and get it right. You know, so that's how it was for me. Like I don't know if niggas seen that outsider's movie back in the day where the Matt Dillon Like, you, we got to do this for Johnny. I was like that for Dave.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Like, we got to do this shit for Dave. So I would just own it like that. No, I concur, man. For real, like, it needed to have its presence. You know, I think the record is, it's therapeutic for everybody. It's closure for a lot of us. And you can feel them throughout the record. The whole Cabin of the Sky idea, to me,
Starting point is 00:12:24 it's like he working on the record from up there, you know? Yeah. Yeah. Is there a name for like these albums when somebody passed? How do you say a pot? A costume, right? I hate when they chop shit up. They get a freestyle from a fucking...
Starting point is 00:12:41 What you said to do? Somebody... I added to the ones he had instead of this, that way they'd be jinks all positing people. Like, I'm gonna just keep it real. I'd never heard Biggie say a whack verse in my life. And they started playing with them. They had like Biggie Christmas Eve.
Starting point is 00:12:56 Then they niggas was just pulling out shit from victory. reverses and shit. They was just pimping that shit on another level where I was just like, yo, this shit ain't. Like, Big Winner did this. You know, and it's hard because, you know, the fans
Starting point is 00:13:10 they want anything. They want to hear this shit. They want to hear what you got. Stash. I mean, somebody who did it great, Primo and Guru, their last album, they had dropped together the gangstar.
Starting point is 00:13:22 That shit, I felt like Guru was here. I don't know if it came out five years ago or something. Yeah. My name. My deep. I'm saying with more deep. But it is in. More deep album
Starting point is 00:13:32 Top three albums. But I'm a question. We got clips. We got Cardi B. She definitely puts some shit out the park. Yeah. And we got more deep. I listen more deep every day.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Yeah. That more deep album is really that shit. Yeah. You know, it gave me going. But that, yeah, that's a good example of them. It's quality for us always of a quantity. You know, That's in your whole life.
Starting point is 00:13:59 We tried our best to do it. You know what I'm saying? We've always felt like, you know, we could marry ourselves to the right track. That's how me and Dave always approach music. Right circumstance, we could do it. Like, I mean, crazy enough,
Starting point is 00:14:11 we never even got to do one with Jaws. But we was always like, yo, we got to do joints. We got to do one with the locks. Like, because we would have, like, married the right shit, you know, not just to do it. And then you'd be like,
Starting point is 00:14:21 yo, I got a song with the locks, but the shit is it bullshit. That ain't us. Like, you guys, you guys. Some work with Chaka Khan. The thing I love most about Chalk and something I tried to be throughout my whole career, first of all, y'all got a lot of hits. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Don't get that. Catalog out of this work. Catalog is out of this world. Number two is none of them sound the same. I love that. You know, I don't like to duplicate or recycle hits. Somebody dead ass told me once I'm in the studio, like, I should do lean forward. Lean back
Starting point is 00:14:57 You know Yo, I'm telling you That's a flat You guys are flag Bigger Whoa I'm trying to tell you This is what they do
Starting point is 00:15:08 They run with the same sauce This is what they do They run with the same sort They run with the same energy Trying to duplicate The last hit That's like stuff in your face Now that's stuff in your feet
Starting point is 00:15:24 Leave No they told me to do Wide Part two, how, when. When there. Yes, so leave it alone. Yes. Leave it alone.
Starting point is 00:15:34 When I go through your catalog, nothing sound the same. I love that. As a creative, I love that because I'm like, all right, they're not chasing the same shit, same style. I got to take it back to a native tongue, right? Yeah. How did that come about? Elevado. No, you ran the era.
Starting point is 00:15:55 It's just no way of. around it, y'all, y'all was the most fire shit. Smoking with all of y'all. Who exactly was in Native Tongue? Who came up with, you know, we should all rock with each other? That's crucial to hip-hop. Yeah, one day... It's missing right now, Raj.

Starting point is 00:16:39 So, yeah, I rule about to Ave's crib, and Tip was like, yo, Ave, tell him what we was just talking about. I was like, what up? And he was like, yo, man, we got such a vibe together. You know, when we make music, why don't we put our name on the one name and call it Native Tongues? And I was like, I'm with it. Like, that sounds crazy. Because he was like, yeah, like we talk kind of like our language is the same. We like, we have this native kinship.
Starting point is 00:17:05 And I was like, I'm with it. I was like, yo, I'll go back until my name is. They'll go back to. And that's what it was. Like, Tim went to tribe. Best thing that never happened. Yeah, like, well, I went to him. I was like, and Dave, and they was like, yo, we with it.

So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a... call about what we should call it. We were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas
Starting point is 00:31:28 Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, Hey Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
Starting point is 00:31:45 But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen.

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis, and I know firsthand because I competed there myself. I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast,
Starting point is 00:32:35 I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris. Every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on clay. Gentian win. I mean, she went down at three to, two. Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lena Rubakina is arguably the best player in the world right now.
Starting point is 00:32:55 And I actually can win on any surface. Because if she's serving, well, good luck. Consider this your court side seat to the French Open.

Hey, I'm Deanna Maria Riva, actress, mother, lover, and a Gen X woman walking through life one hot flash and hormonal crying jag at a time. You ladies know what I mean.
Starting point is 00:33:23 I'll bet you a parameda apostle chin here you do. So let's talk about it. Join me on my new podcast. How hard can it be with Deanna Maria Riva, where I call on my Gen X squads from Ohio to Hollywood as we navigate midlife's most fantastic BS. All of a sudden, I'd had hanginess happening on my own. I was like, what the hell is that? was married when I had her, so I didn't even consider how empty that nest was going to be. Mood swings, night sweats, fupas, sex drive.
Starting point is 00:33:52 Wait, what sex? Dating at 45. How hard can it be? How hard can it be? How hard can't be? That one's kind of hard now. Well, that's lighting. They say we can't polish a turd, but we're sure going to try. So let's get blunt with laughs, tears, or tears of laughter, and dive into it, unfiltered and unbothered and ask, how hard can it be?

It's Isaiah Thomas.
Starting point is 00:34:24 And I'm C.J. Toledano, and our podcast Point Game is about defining the odds. Like LeBron heading into the playoffs without Luca and Austin Reed. And finding ways to win no matter what. He's the smartest player to ever play the game. His IQ is at a level that we've never seen before. And he knows. Without Luca and Austin Reeves, I got him in the... We get a player's perspective on the challenges of the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:34:47 I think Joker's going to be exhausted this series because when they don't have Rudy in the lineup, he has to really guard guys like Nas Reid. He has to guard Julius Randall. And then he has to give us everything he gives us on the night-to-night basis on offense. And when IT's friends stop by, like Quentin Richardson, we dive into some playoff history too. Steve Nash would get that thing. That man, hell get the flying. He run up the court, licking his fingers, why he got the ball like.
Starting point is 00:35:13 You go through a training camp with that Isaiah, you figure it out real quick. Get your ass up and down the court, and you're going to get the ball. So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Yo, Joe, you don't remember when I first met you, and we have been here in show biz and AG, like Andre the Giant. And we was at some video shoot, and I thought you was Andre the Giant. Because, you know, like, niggins didn't have video. They didn't have video. You know, niggins and no.
Starting point is 00:35:48 So I was like, Yo, that's Andre the Giant. I went up to you and said, you was like, nah, Paz. I'm fat. I was like, oh, yeah. Hey. AG's one of my lyrical hero.
Starting point is 00:36:02 But like, see AG, he was so slim. I was like, they don't look like a giant, you know. I used to stop AG. That's hilarious. I used to stop AG all the time. And I used to force. to say this rhyme. He had this rhyme.
Starting point is 00:36:16 Sally, so she sells down by the seashore. How much work? Can the woodchuck? Every time. We pull up to a show and there's 10,000 people ready to go. Say, yo, A.G., tell me the rhyme. Tell me, I was just so fascinated. I couldn't believe that he even said this shit.
Starting point is 00:36:32 Like, I used to arrest. They'll shout out to A.G. Me and my brother. But you thought I was Andre de John. How about a fat man school to this day? Thought I was somebody and I never told him I wasn't the guy. Fat Man Scoop said that he saw me battle some guys. He died digging you with somebody else.
Starting point is 00:36:49 Yes. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Scoot. I love him, Scoop. God. Yeah. Flack is right, though. This Scoop, we like.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Yo, Fat man, you know why you just said you thought I was Andre the Giant? Fat man, the Scoop had a story like that. Boy, he come up to me, yeah. I've seen you battle 10 guys. You had a bottle of scope. And I'd be like, you're like, that shit was dope. I mean, to the day he died, he died. told me this story.
Starting point is 00:37:17 It was not me. I think I told you that one time, Charleston. He always thought I was this guy that he met battling like 10 guys with a bottle of I guess his shit was like, like Listerine, spit it out, like some shit. And he would be like, yo, man, that was the illest shit ever. And I ain't know how to tell him your school. It ain't me. Like, I'm, 30 years.
Starting point is 00:37:43 For 30 years, I didn't know how to tell him it wasn't made. story, you tell everyone why you standing right next to them and you can't, you didn't... You can't do nothing. Rest of peace, fat man, school. We lost a lot of good ones, man, and that's another thing. We come in of age. Not that we got to die. You know, he's trying to make a shit make you live
Starting point is 00:38:02 150 years. I don't want that. I do. You don't want that? You don't want to live 150? Everybody you know is going to be bent. Not if they all get the shit. They can't give it. It's impossible for anybody you know that lived on a hundred. It must as if everybody
Starting point is 00:38:18 know they even go to junk Oh, sorry I'm like y'all, I'm watching my own show Yeah I love y'all You know, we try to do this shit Different, you know, we're crazy We fly
Starting point is 00:38:40 This shit is dope And then he's got the His jokes It's like, yo, you get it on your way home Yeah Sometimes I go home, I watch I say, yo, this thing You can diss me, man.
Starting point is 00:38:50 I didn't even catch that shit. That's why he's top five dead or alive. Whittiest fuck. Nigger be saying shit. I don't catch it on the show. I watch I say, oh, I got to get Jada. I got to get him with this. This guy here.
Starting point is 00:39:06 He's too witty. I can't pick up on the spot. Let's talk about this for a minute. We all been through. So shit with the label. I stayed down for in that battle. I know I was discouraging that time. just ready to say, fuck this shit, we can't win.
Starting point is 00:39:22 But the theology just stayed firm and hold it out. What was that like for the, because people were outside, they don't know how to scale his tip force. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yo, it's wild. I mean, it's almost like I really don't want to touch on it. No, no, no, you got to.
Starting point is 00:39:37 Because it's legal. This is a alert. We're not messing up. This show here. This show is reaching anything. This show is dropping science. This show in gems for the youth behind us to pick up. on what we went through.
Starting point is 00:39:50 It'll be a level of like, you young, someone gives you this opportunity. You never had anything. So you really don't know, like, what they're giving you is like this little piece of bacon from a table that got fucking 7,000 pigs you can slaughter and have for your own. So when you start learning, all right, cool, you learn.
Starting point is 00:40:11 And you hopefully, you negotiate and you have people in your corner. But then you then you then realize that the nigga who was negotiating for you, he's down with that need. Maybe that type of stuff you start learning and you're standing. And it's on the job training. Yeah. Like any other.
Starting point is 00:40:27 Learning on the whip. Yeah. So as we learn it, you know, throughout the process, I start to learn like, everybody's cutting the deal. The deal is happening based on the value, not what we actually have. So everybody wants this deal to close so they could get it to get they cut. Who the fuck you tell it? So you get it.
Starting point is 00:40:47 advised to do things that if you was advised a certain way, you might say, well, maybe I don't want to take the publishing deal. I may want to keep my publishing and y'all keep that money. The way they describe it to you. Yeah, they're describing it to you like, you almost got to take it or you're not going to say no, you're just not aware of what's that long term, you know? Yeah. So once you start to grow and learn what this whole thing is all about, you have a lot more discernment and then you start to catch these things, you read the contract, you learn more things, here it is, Tommy Boy,
Starting point is 00:41:23 I mean, we was in an unprecedented situation where if a label folded, so did the bands too, the group's gone too. We've been able to hold on and move on and do things and let alone do more partnerships. Why would I go back into an 89 deal? Why would he even present me a deal
Starting point is 00:41:42 like that? How about it was already disrespectful? Fuck you. present a deal like that. I give him grace because that's what he knew, that's what he learned. And that's what he, they tried to continue.
Starting point is 00:41:57 Yeah. But you couldn't continue that with us. And I, I'm sorry. Yeah, I just want to say like, yo, it's not even like
Starting point is 00:42:03 so nefarious whereas like someone is trying to do wrong by you. Like, they actually think they're doing right by you. Right. You know what I'm saying? Like, yeah, man,
Starting point is 00:42:14 like, you know, that's my nigger. I have a mentor. You know, that's my neighbor. He'd come to my back door, but that's, I have a mentor. Many years later, his name was
Starting point is 00:42:23 rest and peace jail riding there. He was a billionaire. He was a billionaire. He passed away. Well, he always told me that everybody has to make money in order for you to be successful. Everybody got to make money,
Starting point is 00:42:39 not work for you, not be beneath you, not be this. Everybody should be a business partner in a way. And since he taught me that, I've had no headaches. Everybody's happy. You pull up to my store, the nigger driving a Ben's truck with Rolex on. Everybody's happy.
Starting point is 00:42:54 And that's how you eliminate that. The problem is these guys, they take advantage of them. No, what they do is, look, we can't bite the hand that feeds us. We should always salute the person who helped change our lives. Now, if they still fucking you 10 years later, 15 years later, So basically the way the game is they grab you young, you feel, and they feel like they're doing you a favor. Yeah. If you're successful, as you're getting a little bit older, you're starting to learn the business.
Starting point is 00:43:26 Right, but then don't get mad at me because I learned the business. No, but that's going to happen to everybody. Don't get mad at me because I learned my value. And so what's happening. Still, what I'm trying to explain on your side, you're learning the business and they keep renegotiating after they're making tons. of money for you to get back to where it originally should have been fair. So you're always behind. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:51 Right? Yeah. And then these guys, they live in their extravagant lifestyles. They're fucking Malibu. They're no one in the water. They this and this and that. And they eaten off of our pain. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:06 Because our music is pain. So we out here telling our story, shit we went through. and they're over here having the sweet life. You understand? And refuse to see that, yo, maybe this is my number one guy. Maybe I should make it fair and even. Like, I've never been like that.
Starting point is 00:44:25 Fat Joe has never been like that. So Fat Joe, if I have an artist, recently I had an artist maybe two, three years ago, last artist I dealt with, right? Young lady, I might have spent a million and a half out my pocket because I still think she should be a star. Right? But when she told me, yo, Joe, you know, you're too busy with podcasts
Starting point is 00:44:43 and this and this and that. You know, I gave our papers in one second. I'm not the oppressor. I never understood the guy who was like, yo, you can't go no way, you can't this and this and that. It's never been my style. Yeah. So it's pretty, you know, disgusting that you guys had to fight like that.
Starting point is 00:45:01 You know what I'm saying? So to say, you have to throw a mountain on your back. Yeah. I mean, they at one point was trying to do what they need to do in terms of, look, I got this label back. I guess the intention all of. long was to have it acquired. So we were putting a wrench
Starting point is 00:45:17 in it being acquired without mess because we were arguing, but we was only trying to get what was fair. That's all we should have figured it out. No, no, not your fault. They should have figured it out. And to your thing, I just did a deal, right? Don't want to brag
Starting point is 00:45:33 about deals or whatever. And I'm going to tell you a story, right? I don't owe nobody, no money. Nobody. I don't own nobody no money. And if I owe you money, you've been paid, and not, I don't know about it. Well, I did this deal, and they all made me sign, like, Fat Joe, 2025 is a crackhead that when I do the deal, they automatically get their money.
Starting point is 00:45:57 They can't even let Fat Joe write the check to them or do the wire to them personally. They want that letter. First off Rick, like, you know, they to connect, but I signed that. I don't have a problem. Oh, you want to get paid? No problem. You want to get paid? You want to get paid? You want to get paid?
Starting point is 00:46:12 You want to get paid? you're deserving. You're deserving. You put in work for the deal. But tell you the truth, in the back, you know, my morals clause is fat.
Starting point is 00:46:22 Joe, I felt a little crack-addish that you know me. I ain't no bum. I've been around 30 years. I do business with everybody, but you want your money off rip like direct to consumer.
Starting point is 00:46:32 I was like, you know, I felt the little ways. You know what I'm saying? But it ain't nothing. But at the end of the day, they knew we want to sell this shit. It's worth $100 million.
Starting point is 00:46:43 $200 million. I give their lot of soul a shit and move on. Well, needless to say, Tommy Boyd sold the company to Reservoir Media, which they all bought
Starting point is 00:46:55 Tommy Boy's problem. And the problem that was with us, they worked out fairly. It was... I was... Salute to them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:02 Whatever. I got jerked from my publishing. The man gave me $50,000. Told me, yo, you Latino like me, I'm gonna take care of you, Jelly Bean Benitez. Oh, me.
Starting point is 00:47:19 The man never gave me a dollar on yet. Yeah. Yo, this guy. We heard this to end. This thing that ain't come up crazy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whenever the jerking story, I got a brother right now, dealing with Jelly Bean, Benitez.
Starting point is 00:47:32 Oh, God. Wow. This fucking a hell. All right, go ahead. I did a deal where I had to find every nickel I had under the table stuck with gum. Every, every nickel. Am I lying, Rich?
Starting point is 00:47:44 We spent a year and a half brain busting every, yo, it's LES straight, his young lord straight? Is it like to do a deal? But this guy sells his shit for a hundred million this with no accounting, no nothing. I'm like, I'm like, how this man been jerking me for so long?
Starting point is 00:48:05 And then he could sell the catalog, do all type of shit to just, they won't allow us to do. You understand what I'm saying? How did these people get... This is a delay. I'm gonna tell you... You need me for so long
Starting point is 00:48:22 with your sound. It's a great. What the fuck? Holy moly. God. Oh. He did the sound effects, mate. What did it do?
Starting point is 00:48:35 Yeah. Oh, go. He didn't give me a better description. He didn't give me a better. You know, you want to know what's crazy is. Yo, I'm laughing like this at my house, for real. I can't lie. I'm watching these things at the crib of laughing just like this.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Yo. What it is? This is. Yo. You all the things are in groups. Jada, I don't give a fuck. I love y'all. This is walking grip, man.
Starting point is 00:49:03 I'm trying to protect us. This is about protection us. This shit is honest. This shit is real. They're already going to give a great. You give it. One time, I get into a lawsuit with this guy. The people sued me, had the nerve to think I'm cool with him.
Starting point is 00:49:23 This guy jerked me for at least 12 to 15 million or something. He's a number one. But he's nowhere to be. He's nowhere. I go online to the federal court because it's a lawsuit. And the man, he's about this toy standing to be on me. He says, hey, Joe, I look at this dude. I said, you said, you say,
Starting point is 00:49:44 high to me. Some of these guys are spineless where they don't even care. No, they don't. They robbing you. They don't care. They'll look at you like, yo, this shit crazy. But the moral to the story is, you know, one day, this,
Starting point is 00:50:00 anyway, I can't even see. Finally, I got my shit back 15 years later or whatever. But, you know, one day I'm in a restaurant and they tell me that's Jelly Bean's kids. Oh, not the kids. Not the kids, Pat.
Starting point is 00:50:17 Don't hurt the kids. Not the kids. No women. Don't leave it at that. The devil in me.

But it's crazy because I'm at the age now where people even gone on or the last thing they're thinking about is Fat Joe. You know, somebody's 75 or something who watched me grow up.
Starting point is 00:56:11 If they're in. But you lit, man. We're not even talking. I'm not talking about that. What I'm saying is, it's hard to find somebody watching. You grow up. Yeah. Right now, it's kind of bugged out.

Starting point is 00:57:15 You know, and I used to get drunk and end up in people's cribs and shit like that. I don't give a fuck. When I'm drunk, you could gas me into anything. They'd be like, yo, I mean, niggas house parties. Like, yo, fat, Joe. That's dangerous. That's not my way of safe.
Starting point is 00:57:30 Like, no, I'm telling you. It's not good for me. It's not safe to end up in the stranger's house drunk with a fair on. This is why I'm trying to tell you. Yo, that's just, on that no, A. We're doing this for the cabin. Create some friends. We're doing this for the cabin in the Sky Project.

Starting point is 00:59:12 Right it's the thing That we hang right our neck Like a chain It's the piece of the pain At the least it's the lane that my flow travel down in the sign with a rock cocaine to the brain on the track
