They was getting a lot of money back in them day. Yeah, see, that's the thing about that, about pimping, man, is that you didn't think about New York. You know what I mean?

The girls is tough. The girls is tough, though, because that's a hell of a job. It is. It's horrible. It's slimy. That's horrible. It's a slimy job. It's a slimy job.

It's just, I never got it. I used to try to get it when I thought about it. I said, man, these niggas going to hell. Like, when you think about what they was doing to them, girls? Yeah, because it's really, yeah, because it's really, and that's, I think, why they give them so much time is because the manipulation part of it. It's like brainwash, like how they did.

Brainwashing. What's his name, Charles Manson? It's kind of what they gave them the time for. Manning. Yeah, because if they think you got that much control over somebody in mind, you could make somebody do anything. So that's dangerous motherfuckers. Yeah, you like the, you like the killer.

Really? If you're making somebody out of a more control, so I think that's what that is, you know what I mean. Yeah, that's shit crazy. In regards to comedy, did you ever have an arch nemesis or what's one show you pulled up to that other people was on the car that you was like, yo, I got to kill this shit. Oh man. All them motherfuckers. I never really had friends in comedy.

I can't honestly say that. You know what I mean? The art form itself is not like rap music or any other thing. It's a one-man band. You're everything. Yeah, you're everything. That's why it's like so dark. It makes you really, really cocky and it's kind of hard.

You kind of got to be like an edge. Eddie Murphy in those positions to be like, hey, what's up, man, you know. But coming up in it, that shit is cutthroat. For sure it is. It really is. That shit is damn their worse than the rap game. I'm serious. The shit that didn't happen.

The shit I didn't heard. The shit, I ain't even got to say their names. This niggas is off the chain. I didn't been off the chain. So I know what it is, it's dark. It's a dark art form. It don't brighten up until it starts paying you. and you can get therapy with it.

You can buy your piece a little bit. Yeah, because I see a lot of the comedians commit suicide, all type of shit, fucked up lives. These are the guys that make us laugh. Like, what's my man Mark and Mindy? Yeah, Robin Williams. He was hilarious, bro. Yeah.

when a big motherfucker steal something from you. And you're like, damn. And you're saying to yourself, you know what you say when you see a big motherfucker that stole something for you? You said he had to hear from a small motherfucker that stole it from me. You know what I mean?

He didn't get it directly from me. No, a small motherfucker stole it from me and got around him and he took it from him. He ran with the way. Yeah. You know, that motherfucker's, oh, a thief get, he gone. You remember my motherfucker to take your bicycle. You might not never see it again.

You might see the frame on your awesome. Yeah, a nigga. Man, them are my forks. Nick, that bike is dissected and gone. You know what's crazy? I stole a truck once, right? Now I'm going to keep it real. Automobile?

A truck, right? I had the same truck, but this guy had the fucking, the wide-body kit. Yo, God bless you, man. I gave back so much. God covered me for that and the karma. I stole a truck. We went to a nice neighborhood.

They had the fancy hood. We took that bitch. No, we stole that shit. We took the shit. We took it to the shop. They put the hood. The shit was stated. Yop chopped.

You're chopped. And they two chop. It was the flyest truck and the South Brawl. Sound system, this and that. About six months later, they stole that shit for me, man. They found nothing. That's right. That karma come right back.

They stole that shit. See, that's what made me a thief. I got everything that ever happened to me, I was not bad yet until it happened to me. I did not fucking get in the streets until the streets happened to me. They stole my bike and I said, hell no, I'm stealing bikes.

Nick jumped me? I said, hell no, I'm jumping, niggas. Motherfucking snuff me, I said, nope, I'm snuffing niggas. They robbed me. I'm robbing, niggas. You're lying. It makes you do that. That's why they say jail's a terrible place

because you go in there for one thing, you come back and you learn. Natives don't taught you how to steal everything moving. That's right. You run into real career criminals. That's what I always said. I said, you know when you're young and you go in one of them badass little kids' house

and you see pictures of him when he's young on his mantle. He's like, fuck him. He ain't, you know. He ain't that bad. But then it was kids that smell like pee. That you know didn't have parents.

They'll kill your ass. That's the motherfucker that are this. He's jealous of you while y'all together. Y'all's supposed to be shooting at another motherfucker. He's one that shoots you in the back. I've seen shit like that. I'm telling the truth. Not in person.

No, not your kiss. Not in person. I seen. They smell like pee. I seen through shit. He's killing you, nigger, in a robbery. You got to. the gun out, he's behind you, he shoot you in the back.

Wow. Look, I used to be jealous. He's always, jealous of my ass friend. And I had my mother and father, but his relationship with him and his dad, I used to be so jealous because he was just so tight. I'd be like, damn. My dad wasn't even around. My father don't hug me like that.

The nigga don't show me love like that. I was just getting jealous of you just now when you said, I was talking about your dad. I was saying, well, he shut the fuck up. But I didn't say. I acted like I enjoyed. You said I was blessed with him even getting the cheap coat. What?

Man, my dad used to pick me and my brother up. And God bless him, so I love him still. My dad used to go pick me and my brother up and act like he was gone, take us for the weekend, and drop us over another lady house. And my mother said, how was it? I was like, we was over a bitch named Pat House all weekend. She was like, Pat. I was like, yep, we was over Pat House.

This nigga was out with another lady. I don't know what the fuck he was doing. But what I love about him is that he did make sure he knew who he was. So that part of me, I'm glad I'm not a grown man trying to find out where and who my father was. That's a whole other level of the game that I got friends like that. Don't know where they. Yeah. They act like I'm their daddy sometimes.

Yeah. And niggas of your friends act like you, they're dead. there are well, there's ones that don't have a daddy. You know, and I'm in the position, niggas start acting. I ain't fucking with this. I tell the nigga, I ain't your daddy, nigga. And those niggas get mad.

I'm going to kill you, nigga. You said somebody, I ain't shit about that. But I'm just telling you the nucleus of the mental health part of people. Mentality. You know what I'm saying? That's some real shit. Somebody that don't know their father, you're dealing with a whole other type of person.

You know. It's hard being a step. A lot of them are strong, the strongest people you ever want to meet are people who are missing something. Yes. You know what I'm saying? That is the strongest person. Those are the strongest. Those are the leaders.

They have to go through the most adverse. Yeah, they're the leaders. Like my wife, God bless her, sir. Her diapast when she was young, she didn't know who he was. But my wife is so powerful and resilient. And she, I'm the bitch when it comes to her. I'll be sitting there crying about some shit and she'd say, oh, man. That's right.

I ain't never seen a woman that's stronger than a man like that. Every now and then somebody get a flag. Yeah, man. Every now and then somebody get the flag, huh? He the bitch. Yeah, listen, I ain't the only one to get the flag.

You know what I mean? I got a little piece of money out of fucking. You know, but. You stay working. You stay blessed. I stay in the game. Because you see them, they're almost comedians are like America.

You're even rich or you dirt poor. I don't believe that. I see some... It ain't no middle class, Nick. Nah, there ain't. There ain't no middle class. It's either you rich or you poor. You're even sleeping in your car.

Because it's a lot of comedians. Because there's a lot of comedians. And all of our stories are like that. That's what I'm saying. Man, I moved to New York in 1991 and didn't know nobody from Indiana. And what you thought, like, you was going to blow up here? Like, that's what the...

deal was? I came here and lived for 10 years. Rolled the trains everywhere. You know, one thing I did, I said I got to start wearing with them niggas wear, so I went to Boston Timberlands. I started learning the clock, because the shit I had when I got here from Indiana, when I was dating girls, they was like, you gotta take that shit off. You know, New York girls, they liked me, but they was, they were just laughing in my accent. They said, I had to take that shit. I had a long leather trench coat with like a

A peacock shit. Yeah, that motherfucker had a three-quarter lift with a strap. That was a guy. My wife, my girl said the girl I was with, she said, you got to take that shit off, you know what I mean? Yeah, I had some girlfriends, man, all over in the Bronx. Man, I didn't been on the train. I didn't have been on the sixth train with a girl, riding, going to do shows.

And that was the crazy thing about my journey is that I was here for 10 years. I've been around everybody and everything. And I was a ghost. Nobody even seen me. And I said to myself, if I was a hitman, I could have killed the whole hip-hop business. Yeah, you could have. Because I was at the shark bar.

I've been in Puffy's restaurant. I didn't been standing right next to Jay-Z at the Latin Quarter. He was about to go on the stage. He was a polo shirt on and a little hat. I swear to God, I'm not lying to you. And I was a ghost. I was sitting there. I watched everything.

But I did a lot of comedy shows. I used to do shows with talent. Man, I used to host a peppermint lounge. It was a club in Jersey. Off the chain. Motherfuck be dead in front of it. They still got the show going, Tretsch, naughty by nature,

and them coming there every night. Off the chain. But I'll be telling the story to tell kids that, especially kids that are not from big cities, because, believe it or not, these small towns and small cities, some of the realest motherfuckers you ever met in your, life come from them towns.

I'm talking about stop down, cold hard. The only way you could really find out street niggas is is go to the feds. And a nigger from stanky hall,

Texan... Cut your head off, bro. You know what I'm saying? So you have to understand this real motherfuckers all over the world. And I came to this city, man, and I didn't have nothing. I got on deaf comedy gym.

The first thing I ever did that I got on here, I was an extra on New York undercover. It had Malik Yobo and the little Spanish dude. I was sitting there looking at Malik talking shit. And he laughed at me because I had an accent. He said, man, where are you from? I said, I'm from Indiana.

And, oh, man. I tell you, I got some cold stories. I was dating a girl that was in the Marcy Projects. This is before I even knew anything about Jay-Z. Her name was Peanut. And I'm dating her and I go up. She invite me to the project. Yeah, I go.

She invited me to the project. I go to the projects and I go upstairs. This is the first time I smell a busy elevator. I'm talking about, damn, I'm in New York. I'm from Indiana. Man, I come downstairs and when I walk out, I mean, before I walk out, I see a hundred niggas stand. I'm like, where the fuck did they come from?

They're on both sides of the door. And she's like, oh, fuck them. Come on. I'm like, oh, no, ain't no fuck them, Nick. But ain't nowhere to go. Gotta go through. They got these skips on Instagram now. Like, with dudes come and take their girl to their crib

and it's in the projects. 10 niggas in that. Y'niga. Let me tell you some. Them niggas was talking shit. They must have knew her. They grew up with it because I told him that was the first time I ever taught her

to girl telling him, suck my dick, bitch-ass, Nick. I said, what the fuck? I ain't never heard no girl tell a nigger this. I didn't even know you had a dick. Yeah, yeah. Shit flake went out here. It blew my mind. That was a wild shit to me.

You know what I'm saying? I said, ooh, Lord. I'm glad they knew her because if they didn't know her, they were saying her real name. They were saying, oh, thank God she wasn't saying because we used to have girls in my business and she probably was up.

Oh, see, I wouldn't have came over there. Oh, no. The shotgun come out. Boom, yo, you got to run your jewels. Yeah, you got to run it. But that was all drug bill and shit. That's how that shit went. Yeah.

Comedy Mount Rushmore. Come on, Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, or Martin Lawrence, Bernie Matt, and Robin Harris. Bang! Can't nobody beat that. Who's going to beat that five? Who going to beat that five, man?

Nobody beating that Richard Pryt. You know what? Hold up. There is an exception. I didn't hear Dave Chappelle. Well, Dave Chappelle is, he's younger than me. Don't matter. He ain't up there with them to me.

That's my opinion. Now, I have to put him in a category that's... Right after them, right? Yeah, you can't tell the kids that. Me and him looking up at the same person. See what I'm saying? I get it. I'm the same way you say.

If it was hip-hop, we would mention L.L. Yes. Care rash, shit like that. We ain't going to mention nobody. Like, you would get mad if a nigger tried to say you wanted you to look up to Tim Dog. Let me tell you something. If a nigger tried to get you to look up to Tim Dog. Let me tell you a story, though.

That's crazy. He already said that. Hold up. Hold up. Hold on. Hold on a little. How about, can I say something? Can I fucking say something?

How about none of us in the Bronx know nothing about Tim Dog? Tim Dogg was the first six-nine. The nigger had real niggas behind him from the nine, but we never knew where the fuck Tim Dog was from. He left. He fucked Compton. I'm from the Bronx. We don't know where Tim Dog is from.

He wasn't from the Bronx. He can't go to a building and say this is Tim Dawes. Nobody knew where he was from. You lie. Many years later, I don't give a fuck. What I'm trying to tell you is, I'm trying to think about... He had dudes behind him

that were the real deal. That was the non-lawful West Coast. In the 90s. I dare you try to call your cousins in the Bronx to tell us where's Tim Do you're from? Everybody, and he was saying he was from the Bronx. But he had the West Coast niggas mad at the Bronx.

He also had... Listen. That might have started East Coast, West Coast Beach. That was the first one. It's the first blow. I'm trying to tell you, when 6-9 was talking that shit. Yeah. I'm asking my man, who's the guy standing behind him?

And they're like, yo, that's such a such. That's such. He's the real deal. It made me think 6-9 was real. Because I'm looking at the video. He's talking all that shit. Everybody behind him is the real deal. Tim Dogg was the first 6-9.

He was out there, fuck, Compton. I'm from New York, this day. Everybody behind him was the realest. I knew who's Tim Dogg, but I'm just trying to tell you, I try to do the math after. I thought about Tim Dogg. And I was like, yo, where Tim Dog from? And I'm asking every nigga in the Bronx.

And nobody could point to the building, all the hood. Like they knew everybody standing behind them. Yeah. That was I guard, rest of peace. That was all the non-guise. They was the real deal. But him. Tim, though, because the boy ain't shit.

I think they take this death for some shit. Yo. Yeah, I'm telling you. Yo, Google Tim Dog. Where's he at now? I'm telling you the truth. Bing, Bing, Bing. They do. Castle Hill. No, I just kidding. He's for Castle Hill.

The food stamps, I know nobody is,

I've never seen nobody spend no food stamps in whole foods. I heard they accept them, but I ain't never seen nobody pull none out at the fucking cash rate. It ain't enough for that. Because the place is a healthy place to eat. I think people buy Cheetos and bullshit with,

and I'm just saying this, for black people. I know motherfuckers get mad, Spanish, but black people, they said there's more white people on food stamps than black people. It may be, but black people, let the fucking shit go.

I'm tired of seeing three generations of mothers on fucking food stamps. It's over with. Let, let them take, that you're taking away from food stamps, let that be, guess what? This is the start of, I don't need that shit no more.

I'm gonna tell you something. Because I was there with food stamps came. came out. The projects and food stamps. They came out in our era. They should have been temporary. And so what happens when you stuck in the projects?

Our mother started with. Everybody thinks they're paying cheap with. Yes. But it stops you from getting a good job of competing or becoming the real boss. So all this shit is a gimmick and systemic to hold you back from competing. Yes. You know what I'm saying? Yes.

But I'm not. I'm not. There are some people that really need it. There's some people that need it. There's some people that really need it. I'm not saying the people who. worked all their life. Now they're old.

They need some food stamps or whatever the case may be. I get on single parent moms. The pops don't give a fuck. They need that food. And you know that at the time. We needed them food stamps. Really came in handy for me, man. So it's like.

I'm going to buy some now. I know. I got a plug to buy. Or I'll take you up to the save home. They start selling Lucy's with to the food stamps. I sit out there in a phone line. You bring the groceries out. The Lucy's.

But you know what? It's time for everybody to get healthy. It's time for everybody to be independent. It's time for everybody to work for their future. If you're dependent on these things for too long, you're out the game. And think about the potential. I grew up in the projects. Jay-Z grew up in the projects.

We grew up eating the worst shit ever. But imagine if Jay-Z would have said, yo, I want food stamps. I don't want to compete. I don't want to show how smart I am. I don't want to show him I'm a genius of this. I'm cool with the $100 rent. Get all this shit.

Hold on stamps. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. That's what you say. That's what I'm saying is that environment we came up on. You said imagine H. JZ on stamps. I have family members.

And with the still the same lab. Family members. I have family members. Spending the stamps with their same lab. I have family members who told me they don't want to be. They didn't want the stamps. I can't imagine. I got family members who told me,

Yo, all we want is the stance. We don't care. I rent this paid, this, this, that. You, but don't you want to go to college? Don't you want to get ahead? Don't you want to now I'm comfortable here? I've literally, I swear to God, I have family members who don't want to be nothing more

but then on Section 8. You know why, Joe? Because the responsibility is too great. The most, the scariest thing in the world is responsibility. And people don't understand that you can manage it, but you got to manage your personal life too. People don't know all of us connected. You drinking water, you're being healthy.

All of this is connected to you being... That's right. And that responsible connected to you being a businessman, that responsible connected to you being... You're missing one link out of that motherfucker. Ain't never going to work. you got to cover every base of that. And they don't teach the kids that.

They tell the motherfuck go do one of them and don't teach them the other three. That's my theory with guys in jail. There's a lot of guys. You're going to wash your hands first. I've got to catch a case and go back in there because they don't want to pay your house. Wash your butt. This ain't that. That ain't this.

It's cracking kids. Make sure noise for my catcher. That was hot right there, man. We're upset. Hey guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin.
