Your 20s can be so exciting, but they can also be really overwhelming, confusing, and honestly, just kind of lonely. May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and the psychology of your 20s is breaking down the science behind the biggest roadblocks we face. I was six years into my career, the 80-hour weeks, and just the first one in, the last one out, and I ended up burning out. There was a large chunk of my 20s that I, like, was just so wanting to, like, be out of that phase out of my skin. And I just, like, really regret not living in the present more. You don't need to have everything figured out right now. You just need to understand yourself a little bit better.

He did one in Art Bazz of Miami. And I'm looking to do one in New York. So I'm going to let's know what he's done. What you want people to get from Split Phone Shorty? Do you want them to feel like they're back in that?
Starting point is 00:06:04 Yeah, sir, if you see the movie, it really reminds you of, like, state property, like, Killers Seas and all of the hood movies we love. Like, literally, that was a reference for this movie, like bringing back the six-ax shirts, bandanas under the fitties, like all of the shit that I grow up singing, and then the music just kind of really, it creates a suit for that project. So, yeah, like, when you see the movie,
Starting point is 00:06:34 and then they hear the music, it'll just take you back. It's like a portal that take you back to that time of the era. You want to know what's so crazy is when y'all first came out, ASAP. That was that vibe.
Starting point is 00:06:46 You gave us with that first video. It felt like, oh, shit, that really stout. These young kids, they just getting back with that vibe, you know what I'm saying? For me, it's crazy because you're doing what we used to do.
Starting point is 00:07:00 So my daughter comes to some ill jeans and she'd be like, yeah, and then I'll show a picture, in 1992, had the old shut the down quit. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:07:08 Because the youth they feel like like they, yo, what's ours? You know what I mean? But they don't know they're tapping
Starting point is 00:07:15 into that frequency and so they're coming out like, yo, your shit, oh gee, my shit. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:07:21 yo, well, like I never forget I had an argument with, what's the name? I say that all the time,
Starting point is 00:07:26 a exclusive gang. He told me I'm jacking his style. He said, yo, I've been seeing you jacked myself to read him for it.
Starting point is 00:07:33 or let's go to the videotape. Where I had the gore yard leather hoodie on and all. I said, brother, you've been running with BMF at this time. So we tapped into that frequency. I love when you tap into that. Me, I feel old when they're dressing like, we was dressing when I was 20 years old, motherfucker pull up next to me with that.
Starting point is 00:07:54 I said, I was like, damn, man, we some old nicks. That's what we used to do. We can't wait. You can't wait. The money is jumping a pool with the mink and all of that. because we know your dad super hall of legend the thing I love the most about
Starting point is 00:08:11 you and your career is you carved the way to yourself you earned everything yourself anybody who ever found out who your following was they found out aspect they loved you for your style your talent and everything but then by the way
Starting point is 00:08:28 you know I used to explain that I used to be like you know you don't always father is and no one knew. Or when Harlem was Harlem, and Yonk could tell you, well, we used to stand out there and look at the wide body fences and all that shit coming down. The whole thing was,
Starting point is 00:08:43 the whole New York City from Yonkers to Stapnought. It was 1.25th and 1.45th. If you got money in Long Island and you got to start the ill weapon and fucking ill, your job was to go there.
Starting point is 00:09:02 There was nothing else than that. Like the dream was, I'm going to get me some shit and drive down, 0.45th, and I'm going to drive down 1.25th. By the way, I was the fat Puerto Rican kid and a convertive room with Claring 560 with no shirt on with fucking chains on like this in front of Willie Berger
Starting point is 00:09:22 and leave the door open on purpose to see if you touch my shit. I don't want to stand to us. But the father had that. that store, man. That's what dreams are made of. We was coming by. I came by your store a few times to do consummate
Starting point is 00:09:44 because he was playing his clothes of your store. You've been high stores. Yeah, I've been at stores. That was one of the first things I did when I got on with Flojo. The way it used to work was like, you got a hit record
Starting point is 00:09:58 and then once that shit, babe, you ain't kid. It was fine. That's the term. It had no money. Even with Flojo, we're number one in America. I was there in $500 a show, so it wasn't no real money. So I was like, okay, what do I do all see this? So I got to give me, you know, we're not fast and we're not being fly. I got to get me a fucking store.
Starting point is 00:10:21 And so, you know, we grew up with Jew man. There was a store, and that's not, to all my Jewish people, it's not the rival of it. So it's like none of that. Oh, yeah. That was the name of the store. And a woman who owed it was named Rose. She was a Holocaust survivor. She showed you her numbers.
Starting point is 00:10:37 They used to give them her numbers. So Rose, Rose didn't give her a fucking ball. This is the wildest time in New York. She'd be like, yo, for the now. I'm, of course, I don't give her a fucking mind. Nothing y'all's so clear about. Pay now.
Starting point is 00:10:51 And so, ah, she was alleged. Shut up, Teddy. The flying store in New York City. They robbed him. Two stops down on the train. They grabbed me and shit back and put his back in the store. Yeah, he got the home. They step and if they like you, they go like this, Joey, I'm going to open this store on the counter three.
Starting point is 00:11:11 You're running that way. You see the guys across the street over there. So you have to run on the train. You got to make it out of it. You got to bear. Niggas ain't have shit. So they used to wait outside of Jew, ma'am. And if you was the herb or the Vic, they were even blocked.
Starting point is 00:11:29 I think I was tough. I still had to run. One, two, three, gone. They're running up to the train thing. Like, that's it. They were, if they love you, they give me a want to show you see you three guys. Yeah. They're going to rob you.
Starting point is 00:11:41 So I have one, two, three, run that way. And I was like five blocks from there. So I had it, but I was a bad, fat man. So I was like, but I'm out. You know, you could survive for a Jew man. It was crazy. Yeah, so, sure, that's where we got it from. That's the way we got to spy.
Starting point is 00:12:00 You know, I used to go there when I ain't had no one. I just read all the fucking V-Bong. and sheepskins and hang out in there and just watch them negotiate with people and shit so that was in the Bronx yeah it was in the Bronx okay so I should speak blocks
Starting point is 00:12:15 yeah I was going to the Lansi too to get sheepskins and all that that's where I didn't go one of my first ones came for them one of my first But the Lancy is where R&MC made the Lansie RONDFC changed the game
Starting point is 00:12:27 so before uh one DEOC everybody's rappers was just in a costume like Indians and they almost felt like the cap band and I'm not fine you know you tell them
Starting point is 00:12:41 the truth where I go you're gonna flag though well you're gonna know dead out the lemon suits that was castle that wasn't a concert
Starting point is 00:12:52 right let DMC the first guy who dressed like drum gay and water that was always so like the cost
Starting point is 00:12:58 he did suits and leavens with those strings with the hat well it was considered the first It was hard, though. Maybe everybody wanted to dress like that.
Starting point is 00:13:07 Everybody had to go to the Lancy because they were shooting their videos at the Lancy and all that. So it was like, yo, we're Lancy Street and got to go down there. The Bronx to Manhattan was a whole life. It was like a movie's Warriors, bro. Like, there's people I know, my grandmother, one of them, that lived 85 years in the same projects and never left from the four corners. It's a nod of people. You know, shout out to my stylist, Terrellus. It's far but passed away to Rells.
Starting point is 00:13:38 And, you know, I was hanging out with him in the hospital. And I was asking him, like, what's you most proud of? You took my family to Paris. You're dying any day now. And you say, that's where I'm most proud of it. You know, and it was a big deal. Because we, as ours, we get traveled like we two blacks. Right.
Starting point is 00:14:02 You know, and so we, we talk about where we're from. A lot of people never left the four corners. So you know, Gorn and Gorn and Brooklyn, I used to go to Brooklyn. I went everywhere. I'll be square more. I remember once time I went to the Coliseum, I couldn't find my cheese fast knitting. You know, it wasn't always bad. You're a rap.
Starting point is 00:14:24 I think it was out of the fact, Puerto Rican nigger with 10 days. They're like, we're going to get this, nigga. That thing is on me. Like, check on them. I got to get my teens and get up in that motherfucking wick. Get the fuck about it. It's crazy. No.
Starting point is 00:14:39 Listen, I got to say any truth. I tell you when I, you know, what I win, and I tell you when I lose. That's the only way to be a great storyteller. You got a level spelled back. Level. Levels spelled backwards as what? Lel.
Starting point is 00:14:54 I was it by or? Adidas, so who I could be. Me versus me. Oh, yes, me versus me are that commissioned to do art piece for Adidas and I'm Shaisei Yogi Blalotra. Oh, before you even
Starting point is 00:15:09 go away to it, don't you feel blessed? Because I don't know how long you was doing art personally, but you presented it to the world not that world was going, or you already getting commissioning you fucking out of here. Like that, how do
Starting point is 00:15:26 how did I feel? No, I feel. No, I feel good because I get acknowledged for something that I've always been into and doing. So I was just fancy, ladies, gentlemen. He did, he did this. That's crazy. And I thought we designed the best one. We did the ones with the Bronx, Harlem, Yagers,
Starting point is 00:15:43 we took care of them. We took care. It made, too. You okay. He gets to your own thing. That's right. He got one. I got one.
Starting point is 00:15:53 We took care of y'all. Fags got one. We just a few york. They made three. I wasn't we hit the hall, though. I got the hall in Georgia, too. It's that same color thick.
Starting point is 00:16:03 I got a couple of years. I know y'all got a lot of misdoult. I need some of the rough rider jackets. Gosh, I need all of that. Now, but it's a blessing, man, because I went to art school. I went to arts.
Starting point is 00:16:16 Art School of Art and Design. High School of Art and Design. My conf also went to that school. So I was always doing art the whole time. I actually thought that I would be an artist. but I was always just rapping. You are all. You're an artist.
Starting point is 00:16:31 I am a artist, yeah. Well, visual artists. Like I thought that I was going to go off of that first. But I was battle rapping and being in the streets and just listening to music. And I always had the love for music. So the fact that I'm able to create more life and energy around my brain doing something I always loved is a blessing. And for people to recognize it and embrace you.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Well, obviously, you except Rocky. You guys have learned to diversify. Like with you, you know, you're not just like stereotyped or categorized in one category. Like I see you at many different, I see you at many different spaces. You're elected by every. Yeah. You know, we always say the music. We always say behind the scenes, but we'll tell the.
Starting point is 00:17:25 fans and all that, that the music is just the coffee book that you read. Is they that y'all, I like that guy A-Sap for music. And then you sit next to the guy, he happens to be the owner of Calvin Kahn, and you're like, yo man, we can do some
Starting point is 00:17:41 fucking underwear together, some A-ZAP perfect, and that's how I go. So, your thing and your music is the talking piece to get you into those rooms. And you definitely, it seems like, you know how to do that.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Everybody don't know it to do that. Some people are just born to be rappers. Some people are born to do shit. There's nothing you can do. I got friends. Now, I come up in an underground hip-hop crew. They don't want commercial lives. They don't want to watch commercial lives.
Starting point is 00:18:13 They don't care. They don't want a commercial life. You know, I have to convince them when I walk with with Al-Couje in my wife. Who's 4-5 platinum all the time asking me to get in our shop. I had to have, like, a team meeting, and they were like, yo, we don't rap. They just, you know. I was like, yo, he's my eye.
Starting point is 00:18:32 I was trying to come up. What, but, whoa, they're not doing that. What are the other guys? Like, in the car, everybody's good. Everybody do what they do, diamond is DJ. One of the greatest producers class rap is Diamond. He DJs the 45 joint stocked up on his shows. Finesse is doing this thing.
Starting point is 00:18:49 He DJs and produced. He just produced the album, like, last year, two years, He did the remix. It's the Moten. You got to check that shit out. So he did all that Marston Gag's shit over hip-hop beats.
Starting point is 00:19:02 Everybody OC, everybody out there in Buckwild. Buckwild gig, Y'all woke. That's a Harlem classic. He was mad in the town. He was going to win it. Now when he found out like,
Starting point is 00:19:16 what? What? That fucking whoa. What did he say? That was about the same rap collection and the lit effect. Who's cool? Shout out to Dezell,
Starting point is 00:19:32 shout out to Teah. Nobody's doing it right now. Nobody came together as a clique. I said like, y'all used to do it more so back on the days. A lot of rappers used to hang out together. You see freestyles or X, you, big pun, everybody.
Starting point is 00:19:46 Like, we don't really see the camaraderie like that. Like, not just doing music together, but hanging out and building together. And you would just build it. on it. He was coming to my sessions alive. He was knocking out four or five joint beat session. I'm coming to his session. The same thing. He was like, yo, let's just
Starting point is 00:20:03 form this collectives because we had so much energy together. We just wanted to put it out to the world and packaging. Am I? That was that native tongue. Batifamori loved, Jungle Bubbers, drop all quest, they lost to all. Everybody, different
Starting point is 00:20:19 crews, but everybody got together and it made some mean classic. It was a nation. Like, you know, that's how hip hop was. So hip-hop, when I got turned off by hip-hop, and I moved to Miami, was when everybody started fight. I never forget, I'm sorry, guys.
Starting point is 00:20:37 I don't want to keep bringing this up. But I was in Jersey. Throw the flag. Go to the flag. I was a jersey in my jacuzzi, and I'm listening to 9-7, and I hear even Joe Joe Jones or Camas say, yo, that nigger nuzz.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Smack is cool for you off. that was different. That was like, yo, I pulled out a white flag. I said, we're moving to Miami. I can't take this shit
Starting point is 00:21:02 no more. Because they were violating Pharaohs, the kings of Egypt in hip hop. It was just came a time where New York
Starting point is 00:21:11 was just violating each other so much where I was like, yo, I grew up, let me tell you a fun fact that you don't know, something you never heard before.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Right? If you look closely to Black Sheaves Video engine engine I'm one of the guys y'all pick it up pick it up pick it up back on the scene
Starting point is 00:21:32 Chris get like an extra I better find that I should better be live everybody's video everybody was in mind when I did Flojo Greg Nights came
Starting point is 00:21:45 beat nuts game Grant Bullbar came fucking Don the Dean Finesse everybody came and I was just the first song I ever had out.
Starting point is 00:21:55 We loved each other in hip-hop. We had a type of camaraderie that was just, we didn't care. It was competition lyrician, but it wasn't. It was like we want to see everybody grow, everybody win. We want to support letting our platform to everybody else. The shit got real funky out here. And so, you know, I went to Miami and started that. Orta McAllie, Pitbull, Brick Ross, Little Wayne.
Starting point is 00:22:21 Little Wayne came from Katrina. the fucked up as he came to Miami. I was the first one with open arms to welcome him and date. And we all working together and make the songs together jumping out. I found that camaraderie while I was down there when I
Starting point is 00:22:37 laid all making rains and all that. It was because everybody was working with each other up here. It was sort of like now. You know, it's like, I love social media and I love to watch what's going on in the world.
Starting point is 00:22:52 And I love to know. But it's ugly out there How everybody's just Won't scott Disrespecting each other Won't scott I just be like yo wow Now this
Starting point is 00:23:03 Now it's like every day You know the phone I don't know about y'all But I wake up Thank you God Say my prayer and I grab the phone That's how I know But I'm Jesse Jackson died
Starting point is 00:23:19 That's how I know Canoos That's how I know everything that's going on for the day. Nassau's at 10. I pick it up. Oh, this girl saying,
Starting point is 00:23:27 fuck, the other girl, this guy, he's saying, but it's a really ugly time in a miracle. Why are you laughing?
Starting point is 00:23:37 I got confidation, by the way, though, I got a speech. I'm joking. You did? So we know he was in the video.
Starting point is 00:23:44 He was telling you, you're the leader in the Cap Coalition. What are you talking about? He's up here. You're not in the private law. You're a fucking,
Starting point is 00:23:52 You are in there. You started. Everybody's calling me, Kathy. I don't know what it is. You're doing that place. I'm like, y'all, I don't know. I don't know. I think I'm right about nothing.
Starting point is 00:24:05 If you slow your brain down a little bit, I was telling them for the episode, not even you to find it, James, that put it on the thing when we put the clips. That's a snafu fact. I'm in that video. I'm in a bunch of videos.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Your Florida said you was in remember the time. But what I just say is, it was a time. We all embraced each other, you know what I mean? So it's good that y'all got together. You got one in that coalition they got just making you. You know, we had an artist on here. She's short but feisty, Lola Brooks. And she said, she said, I don't go to studio to make you hit.
Starting point is 00:24:52 That's what, me, I go to Biggie here. Like, if Fat Joe put out a record and you feel like he shot the video, he put the bad, and they don't blow, no, I failed. I'm not playing with these people. I don't throw them off, but throw him out. But she said she go in the studio and just make music because she got getting it off out of her sister. Right.
Starting point is 00:25:12 You know, and that's mean right there. You know, I never heard nobody break it down like that where, and it's true. You know, us as artists is therapy.

Starting point is 00:27:59 Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to a... We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how did we actually come up with a name Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
Starting point is 00:28:16 Oh, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band. Before Jonas 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.
Starting point is 00:28:33 And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. 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. We don't care where you hear it. Here's something that should not be as complicated as it is. getting a racist statue removed.
Starting point is 00:28:55 And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is, getting a new one put up in its place. As long as there's a politics of race in America, there's going to be a politics of remembering the Civil War. To get to school, I had to go down Robert Lee Boulevard. Get to the grocery store, I had to go down Jefferson Davis Parkway. If you're an historian and you leave out half of what the history is, you're not doing your job.
Starting point is 00:29:16 I'm Akila Hughes, and Rebel Spirit Season 2 goes deep on both of those things. the fights, the politics, the people who won, and my personal campaign to add something to the Kentucky State House that's actually worth the wall space. We are more than our bodies. We contain essence. We contain spirit. How do you represent that? They are just fueling a fire that is really catching. You'll see what I mean. Listen to Rebel Spirit Season 2 on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, I'm Jared Adano. You might know me as that loud guy who you yell. out help on the internet.
Starting point is 00:29:54 Help! Somebody! Please! But there's so much more to me than me. I'm an actor. I'm a comedian, and recently, I've become quite the helper myself. And on my new podcast,
Starting point is 00:30:05 hope from a hypocrite, I'll be changing lives, helping people in need with my sage advice and thoughtful solutions. Syke! I'm a comedian. I'm not qualified to give good advice. Join me and my comedian friends
Starting point is 00:30:18 as we riff rant and recommend some of the most legally duby advice known to man. If I'm calling you, even if you're on your phone, let it ring twice. One ring is too scary. Oh, cream a chicken suit. Hey, cream a chicken suit.
Starting point is 00:30:35 This is Help from a Hypocrite, the worst advice from the dumbest people you know. Listen to Help from Hypocrite as part of the My Cultura Podcast Network available on the IHart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. What's up, fam? This Isaiah Thomas. And I'm C.J. Tolodon. and our podcast point game is about defying the odds. Like LeBron heading into the playoffs without Luca and Austin Reed.
Starting point is 00:30:58 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 to manipulate the game. We get a player's perspective on the challenges of the playoffs. I think Joker's going to be exhausted this series because when they don't have Rudy in the lineup,
Starting point is 00:31:19 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 Nass would get that thing. That man, hell get the flying. He running up the court, licking his fingers why he got the ball.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Like, 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 Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. When it comes to y'all, right, so I didn't know much about movies and they. Yeah, yams?

Starting point is 00:32:01 Yeah. Like, I didn't know Yam. Could you describe how he became a part of the team and how he influenced the people? Because I see y'all be having, like, Yams Day. Yeah. And I see mad artists tell me they love Yams. Like, you know, on social media. So tell me about him and his contributions that are always.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Aesat Fazzle. So with Yams, he made Aesap, like he started EASAP along with Chus. And like a few other guys, Bari. Me and Rocky joined like two years later. So it was just a collective of creative people. And it was like a bunch of teams out Harlem before Aesat. So Tiana was down with a crew called Team Nerd
Starting point is 00:32:43 that she started that Yams was a part of. And I was part of a crew called Harlem Mendy. Rocky was a part of a crew called Million Dollar Babies. and then when the crew started to fade out of Harlem, we formed A-Sat, where we all came together as A-Sat. Hey. So, Yves, that's what he did. So, yeah, because I see a lot of respect from a lot of high praise and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:33:09 And so I never knew what he really did. But Yams also worked with Dipset, and he worked with our early Max B. So he used to, like, work with Karen Civil, pack up all the CDs. He used to be in the books. reading like all of the articles on music. So he was like I was A&R. He was basically like Jedi.
