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.

I know God got me. I like, I said, I don't know where, but I know he got me. And I can't just
let it scrape me out. I had to be scorn for everybody out there. Yeah, yeah, what up, y'all?
This is Joe Crack the Dawn. You know who it is, your boy.
Jada.
Pardon me, crap.
This is the Joe and Jada show.
Every show legendary, every show
iconic, and we stay
ten toes down to our word
with that.
Today's guests, when you think of coming
up, and I'm made from the bottom,
making something out of nothing
when you think of a land of rap
scene.
You think of staying ten toes down,
being solid individual
on the music scene,
off the music scene.
You think of a family man.
You think of a good father.
Ladies and gentlemen, make some noise for our guest.
Why, Finn, Lucie?
No.
Hadn.
Wow.
You said that way, though.
So.
What's up, my brother?
What going on?
Y'all good?
First, I want to give you some, another one.
You know what I mean?
Just had to sit for a minute, stay solid.
Never said nothing throughout the whole thing.
Did your shit?
Got back out.
Got back to the money.
Just like it's supposed to go.
Before we even get it in the end,
I tell us about growing up in Summerhill,
what was it like, man?
Man, growing up in Summerhill, you see.
Like in the other hood, you know.
You got the good and the bad.
You got your husbanders.
Got your robber.
You got your killers.
See, you got your ball players.
And we all just trying to find a way out.
We all trying to make it out.
No, that's shit hard, you know.
But shit, we made it through.
I always wonder why,
You got a different type of, your voice is A, but it's, it got something else with it,
but now I see your pauses you're making.
So that's, you're cheating.
You got the cheat card.
Yeah, you got the cheat code.
I never knew that.
You're cheating.
With some of the inspirations before you actually got your rap deal, might run up.
Yeah.
Got down, you know, like Jay, Wayne.
Of course, y'all.
You don't got to tell him that because he's sitting there.
He already gassed up and getting more.
Well, Jesus.
No doubt.
50.
I mean, that's a pretty good goddamn list right there.
That's a great line there.
I know.
So it's like my line up too.
You know what I'm saying?
You know, the first time I've seen you
was very, very, very, very, very, very beginning.
And you were performing on top of a.
car outside of a club in Atlanta.
When I seen that, I said, man, that man grind is different.
I'm sure.
So we're coming out the club.
He performing on top of a car outside.
You remember this, right?
I live it, but I don't remember what we were.
Yeah, and then it was like, it was in Atlanta, we come out of the club, and you was
performing on top of a car.
And everybody was like, yo, that's why Fennucci and this.
That's the first time I got to see you.
I'm sure.
And I said, damn, bro, this boy is hungry.
out here.
He, you know, next thing you know, you blew up, you know,
but that was the first time I heard of you.
I seen you promoting like a motherfucker out there in the ATL, man.
Like you said, growing up, it's so hard to even think coming out of the hood, like,
that you could even make it, you know what I mean?
And the fact that, you know, you and the A, what gave you that motivation?
Because, you know, we say the same shit here.
You know, everybody who comes to say they want to be a ball player.
They want to be a rapper, but you actually became a rapper.
You know what I mean?
So what was that big breaker?
What was that thing that just said, do it is?
Like just saying, nigga from my, like, not my hood,
but from the A, like, a nigga, like, Trouble, corn,
like, saying all these boys started making it.
And, like, damn, these nigger from where I'm from.
So, it's like, shit, this shit ain't too far.
You feel, like, if they can do that shit, I can do that shit.
My boy, Johnny Cinco, he had just got a deal.
Like, he's my, like, Cinco, my real boy.
And I watched him get a deal.
Like, damn, I know I can do this shit.
I just got to keep grinding.
Oh, yeah.
You feel?
And I kept grinding.
I stayed down.
It's crazy.
That's what happened to me.
You know, Lord Finesse, legendary rapper, he from my projects.
And Lord Finesse used to sell the newspaper, right?
So, Lord Finesse would go by the newspaper in the store,
come in the building and be like, pay, but you pay a dollar instead of going to the store.
He paid $50.
Cut it all.
The point is, he kept telling me he's going to be a rapper.
One day I turned on the radio, they play like three or four his songs, and I was like,
that's it.
I'm a rapper.
And that's made it out of the bacon.
You know, sometimes we got to see it to believe it.
Yeah.
You know?
And so that's great.
Atlanta is just filled with so much talent, so much success.
Our story like that is crazy
because X was like
already like fucking Bruce Springsteen
in Yio.
That's what you know.
I'm telling me.
I had it to him.
Yeah, he was already like a star,
but this is before anybody thought about
getting a record deal.
Then when he got,
he got with Rough Riders,
and he came and got us.
But we got a record deal before him.
That was crazy about it.
We got signed.
Then he got signed.
And then he went fucking crazy.
after that.
But he was supposed to sign
and then we were supposed to sign.
If he came and got us,
we got the deal before him,
that's,
that's a...
You ever signed DMX made a lot of money
and was geniuses,
but that shit was a real,
like, imagine DMX coming up
and they go,
and all that shit.
You like,
this shit.
Had a 12 this thing
that fucking addicts,
that friend was a dog.
He always had a dog.
He went on tour
with 12 dogs on the tour.
dogs on is busted.
He had a bus with him and dogs on.
All of the bunks got dogs on.
That's crazy.
And one in the big room with it.
That's fucking crazy, man.
You're home, man.
You went through some shit, man.
And so, you know, I know all about it.
You know what I'm saying?
About being the target in your own hood.
It seemed like even they want to kill you the most in your own hood for sure.
I'm sure.
And the police wanted to take it.
you down to your own hood, right?
And so they don't want no robin hoods.
They don't want nobody to make it up out the hood
and be successful.
I don't know why is that.
And that ain't just your hood.
It was the Bronx.
It was Cleveland for Bone Thugs.
It's the same when you came out in LA.
Yonkers, it's like we hated the most
where we're from and where we represent.
You've been through a serious journey, you know,
making music, then getting locked up.
Like, just being locked up.
People don't know.
how real that shit is being locked up, being famous.
You gotta walk in that bitch famous, right?
They put you in the jail famous, the niggas like, oh, shit, y'all, and it's, they don't know that that's a different, that's a different type.
Now, you don't understand his power in there.
Why, Fing not the own side.
They had to go over there, and they, you know what I'm saying?
Shit, it was real in there, giant and them went, it was at footing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Imagine them came to visit them.
You was in there when Trump came through there.
Yeah, hell, yeah.
The whole jail was like,
yo, Trump and this bitch?
Yeah, they shit everything down.
But he was in and out, though.
He was in and out.
He was in a lot.
He was in a lot.
Trump came through for two men.
You know, Trump came through, though.
You in jail.
You know, Trump went to jail,
nigger.
Like, them niggas was in there.
Trump was in the barbers shop.
What the fuck was that like?
Man, you know, we have phones and shit.
So, we're watching this.
Wayne to see the malls up.
Oh, yeah.
Why we see the muscle, like,
damn, the boy really was there downstairs.
Trump came through.
Yo, came through the jail, man.
That shit crazy.
I never forget when Little Kim gave herself in this,
I heard, I wasn't dead,
but I heard the whole jail was banging on the fucking,
you know, it's the, they said the whole,
it was like a hurricane.
We were shaking that.
Niggins was like, boom, whoa,
the whole fucking jail was like,
oh shit, little Kim walking.
up in this bitch. You know, you, you're home, but, you know, that people don't know how hard
is that.
How'd you keep your mind strong?
That shit definitely be hard because you got to think, coming from where a nigga that came
from, a nigga, living good, condo, big house, driving whatever you want to drive, eat, whatever
you want to eat.
You sit in that bunk and it says, Chico 147 was here and all that, you just like, yo,
we was just every day we lit.
Like, what that shit is like right there?
I don't lie, that shit.
You got to be strong.
You feel, me, you got to be a strong nigga
because they should have tear your head down,
just sitting in that room all day.
You know, you ain't got shit.
Lord.
He got shit in the room.
Ain't no TV.
There's nothing.
And I was in my room by myself.
I ain't have no settling.
You see what I'm.
So I got to sit in the room by myself.
I had to figure out of the routine.
So shit, I started reading.
I was working out at first.
But then, I was like, man.
You stop working out, don't why, fan.
You all give me the Jadik's plan.
Some niggas.
go to jail workout all day so I can't
eat Oreo. I can't eat workout by myself.
Yeah, he needs. He needs somebody to work out
with it to keep you going when you don't feel like.
Yeah, that's a fact. For me,
I felt stupid. I ain't even going
to lie to you. And I went up in the cell and wasn't
how about it wasn't my fault, guys.
Niggins are almost stupidly out of jail.
We eat and the niggas like, yeah, I'm in jail
for robbing the bank. Y'all, I'm in jail for
count of, y'all, I'm this. And I get up and I'm like,
hey, guns, I'm really innocent.
My name is. I didn't get the fuck.
Get out of here, crap.
Fuck you.
That thing I'm just going crazy.
I'm like, fuck out of here.
I was just like, I realized I just got caught for all the times I got away.
That would be.
You know that calm.
That's all it be.
You know what I'm saying?
That was the older nigga told me one time.
He was like, maybe he ain't do that near time.
But shit, you're just doing time for something you been dead.
Oh, that's a fact.
No, sure.
And so you just got to take that and just, you know, but I felt a little stupid and shit.
I was just like, damn, what the fuck I'm doing in him?
Yeah, man.
I've been working to get to where I'm mad at this
and I'm never in this place.
And then now I'm in the same way.
I felt the same way.
I felt the same way.
You know, I was looking at that shit like, man, all my life,
I ain't never went to jail this long.
I feel me?
I think I was like, I was 30.
I would turn it.
I just had turned 30.
I'm like, I'm 30 years old.
I'm that fucking jail.
All this shit I got going on.
I was 40.
I was 40.
Okay?
I've been lit since I'm 19.
I've been on a couch at a club
since I'm 19 popping bottles
thinking I'm 19. I'm going to
thinking I'm 19. I'm thinking I'm 19.
Every day. Imagine you lit.
You're rich, you fly, you get you on the couch.
You think you're 19, nigga.
Right? So my thing is, I'm on the couch
thinking it's all good, but when I go in there,
they do a 40-in-over lead.
So some young dude come up to me, just like, yo,
gee, what's up? You're joining the 40-in-over bass.
I said,
I was fucking nigga disrespecting that.
I went in that, Sarah.
And I said, yo, you 40 years old and niggas know it.
Why, you ain't playing the league?
Fuck the league.
That was just a learning lesson for me.
That put me really, you know, you can't sit a nigga like me down.
So that put me in perspective.
I said, oh, shit, the window really closing, Joe.
Like, you got to do whatever you got to do to secure the future
because you're 40 years old, nigga.
Like, how many niggas?
Nobody ever was 40 years old and hit a record out the park.
Ever.
I don't care who you talk about, right?
Right.
So me, I'm thinking like, yo, I got to get back out.
I got to make a hit.
I got to get my money right.
I got to get businesses.
I got to get, but that taught me right there was like,
yo, I had to get serious.
The window was closing.
Probably was closed.
You opened it back.
No, I opened that shit back.
I'm going to go to the fucking bag.
You know, I went as soon as I came.
out of jail, I went straight to the studio.
It was the era of the young
niggins. So they all had like yellow hair,
purple hair, green hair. They're looking
at me like, this old nigger was.
Stop. Fuck he doing in this studio.
Right? And so I was up in there every day just working.
So you sat down, you praying the God for you
to come home because you was facing stupid time, correct?
200 years.
200 years.
200 years with God.
Fucking insane.
Hold up.
In the cell facing 200 years, what was your relationship with God?
When I first got in there, I used to talk to one of my dog, I named Robert, Fred, River.
So I was just telling him, like, my niggins that don't know how to pray, bro, like that.
So he was like, bro, you got to talk to God, like, you talk to me, then.
Like, they talk to him.
So, you know, every night I used to talk, but I think this later, she told me, like, when you pray, you got to, you know, you ask for what you want.
And then you let it go.
So I pray that, you know, he let me out of my situation.
He made sure good.
I only did that one time.
And then every other night, I let that go.
And every other night, I just, I thank him.
Like, I thanked him for being alive.
I was thanking him for being able to still provide my family while I'm in hell.
When I wake up, I thank him for waking you up.
We don't understand that.
When Jewels went to jail for two years, I'm going to be honest with you.
I ain't know how he was going to pay his bills.
Do you know what it's like?
How do you know what that man hadn't stayed?
I don't know what he got.
I know what he got.
I know what I got.
I know I did four months, and, nigga, I came out a crippled,
nigger, like, on my knees.
Like, you're paying these bills, these family, they don't know what you fuck.
They don't know this shit, you know.
They spend it like you in jail.
And you come home and you come home and your wife is like, yeah, I bought a new car or this.
Like, I'm like, bitch, you don't know we can both, nickers.
Like, what you're talking about?
Like, this shit place.
Like, so I see the man go to jail for two years.
I'm like, God.
Damn.
How do you pay the rent for that?
two years.
So you thank God
that you was able to pay the bills
while you was locked up.
Hell yeah.
Fucking right.
That wasn't no
regular fucking shit, man.
But my thing is,
because if I was facing 200 years,
I would have a little more,
you know, but Fat Joe,
that's why they call me
the greatest storyteller of all time.
I would explain
how they was fucking knots
on my knees
from praying so much
on my fucking knees.
I would have been facing two hundred years.
I mean, my shit was bricks.
I would have been smaller
than an eye phone.
George and Wyatt.
I would have been whittling it.
I would have been walking out of life.
Then when you were telling you the truth,
I'd have been on my knees so hard,
praying to God, that shit legend.
200?
You got to wake up every day
thinking y'all might go for 200.
That's a fact.
See, me, man, I don't know.
I just, I always knew I was going to be all right.
I looked at that a lot, but I ain't no bad.
I ain't no fucked up, nigga.
I ain't never did it.
No fucked up.
shit to nobody.
You feel, I know God got me.
I like shit.
I don't know where, but I know he got me.
And I couldn't just let it scrape me out.
I had to be strong for everybody out there.
You talk to my mama every day.
And just to hear her sad, hear the cracks in her voice.
I know she's crying.
She's acting like she ain't crying.
So I had to be strong for everybody else.
Fear of nothing.
No like, man, I'm good.
You ain't got to worry about me.
I'm going to be a right.
You feel me?
And I just had faith.
I had a lot of faith.
That's crazy.
Can't no, nigg, tell you.
You walked out of that.
I knew I were coming home.
You walked out like it was AI, huh?
You walked out.
This shit was AI, nigga.
You was like, yo.
The shit ain't a-ion, nigga.
Like, I ain't going to lie.
I only did four months.
But when they came and got me in the new bends
and I seen the dashboard or no,
I felt like I was an AI.
I was like, what is this?
This shit was crazy because it was,
I had to get the halfway house.
It was either have sex or eat a steak.
I hate to.
steak, right?
Yeah.
I'm just thrilled with you.
I told my mother-in-law,
y'all make the steak, man, I'm coming.
Because you had to go straight
to the jail to halfway.
You couldn't make, they were so specific.
I probably would have to have sex.
You got to be back up in here.
You got to go direct.
I might have the bus y'all.
You might have the bus of y'all?
Yeah, I needed a steak, nigg.
No, that's a L'Aid.
You y'all had it good.
If you had your own section and all,
I know y'all had it good.
I had it bad.
So they were like,
Yo, this nigga coming in here, he got money, this, this, that.
If we catch any of you police, take any money for that they want to me.
I was in there bribing a, I don't get high, bro.
I was in there trying to bribe next to Joe, bring me a stain.
Nigger, my man, it'll give you $6,000, of course.
You just would not give me estate.
One cop told me he was mad, cool.
He said, yo, you disrespect to me, B.
As soon for estate.
I just, I'm fat Joe, man.
I need to eat some good shit.
So they got this career.
direction officer lady.
She looked like
throw mama off the train.
Yes, the ugliest bitch
in the world, right?
She comes in,
she violate me.
My Joey,
oh, my Joey,
I tell my girls about my Joe
this bitch so ugly man.
I'm looking at,
thank God I ain't have 10 years,
right?
I'm looking at out.
I'm like,
planning it off.
One day I tell they,
I said,
Miss Such is such.
She said, yeah, Joe,
anything for you,
I say,
I need a steak.
No, but so.
Hey, look,
those young niggas,
they used to always tell me,
I'd be like, man,
They're like, look, bro, you gotta flirt with the officer,
but they're gonna give you whatever you want.
I'm like, man, can't flirt with this bitch.
No way.
Crazy-looking.
Now if you've got 20 years, you got to honor something,
you're gonna flirt with any bitch.
But, young lady, but you gotta trust the process.
But I was like, at least-
Did she give you the state?
Nah, she didn't get the state.
That was the end of communication.
We never talked to.
Fuck that bitch, bro.
I was like, oh, man.
Fuck that.
State.
You fucking mom and duke ass up there.
Because I'm over here entertaining the bitch.
She over here.
Hey, my Joey.
Oh, I was telling the girls about you and all this.
I'm like, looking at this bitch.
I'm like, yo, I said, listen, can you bring me a steak?
Dude, I can't do that, Joey.
That was it.
I was fucking hug.
It ain't no reason to even be nice.
I ain't all like the eye.
I drill a little different.
You get steak.
You get Benny, honey, you get whatever you want.
What?
Benny Honest.
Ben, I'm in that even.
I got a chef in all life.
No, no, no, no, I had a chef in all life, but I had to do it my ways.
What they do, they still up on this outside.
I was getting the real Benny Hunter.
I was getting the real Benny.
Yeah, that's disrespectful.
That's for a nigga like me.
You're doing shit, yeah.
You was doing shit in it.
That's disrespect for me.
Well, for me, I was happy when he fixed it with Doug,
because I fuck with both of you.
That's a part of the time I'm glad that I wasn't from Atlanta,
so I can just mind my fucking business.
Fiatta fix them.
And y'all did a horrible job
because I was able to detect
y'all, you know, work together
when y'all try to do the social media
and shit. I said, these niggas got his horn,
and then, y'all, yeah,
I had worked, yeah, no, they couldn't,
I knew that they worked together
before the world knew. Let's get back
to this. Was there deep hate between
between, you know,
I'm trying to, right? I'm telling you.
I'm a journalist, my nigga.
If you're a journalist, you would
The barbershops want to know.
I'm trying to put them in real time.
So it's a real hate.
You thinking we're killing him one day.
He's thinking we're killing you one day.
I was so.
And what was this epiphany?
What said, yo?
Jeff.
200 years.
The man, Jay.
You're your brain.
You know, they're not too smart.
He thinks of the answers for the people.
I usually telling him to let him talk.
Let him talk.
You thinking you're going to kill him.
He's thinking he's going to kill you.
You know, that is beautiful for the youth to see.
But how did that come about where you just said,
yo, this ain't about shit.
Because I had a similar situation.
I was saying.
I came home.
I made peace with 50 cents, made peace with everybody,
and the doors open.
The flood gets open.
Because when niggas got to pick aside,
so there's bags that they won't even let you get to
because they be like, yo, if I'm Fat Joe got the rewinded shit,
and I'm thinking to YFM Lucci,
I'm like, yo, I'm about to ask Lucci.
10 other niggas are coming and be like,
yo, these niggas won't fuck with you no more.
If you fuck with...
I went through that.
That's your Lord sneaker deals,
all type of shit
because I had beef with niggas
and the niggas was like,
yo, he can't eat over here.
He can't eat.
So what was the process?
Just sitting there in jail, bro.
I ain't like, bro.
It's all this shit worth it.
You know, a nigga got a kid.
I'm standing there.
I'm away from my kid.
Shit, we,
we beefing with.
Those niggas ain't right though.
We got them.
Taking care of my kid.
I ain't looking out for my kid while I'm in here.
You feel, but a nigga I want you to keep up the bullshit, though.
But when you get took away from your family,
you realize like shit, man, bro, my family needs me.
You feel, me.
My kid got to grow up in this shit.
I don't want them growing up in no beast shit.
My kids ain't no gangster.
They ain't from the hood.
You feel what I'm.
They're cool.
They ain't going to just let nobody fought with them.
But, you know what I'm saying?
Like shit, bro.
My nigga can come together, make some money,
and change the narrative and help the youth.
Look at this shit.
They can do their shit, bro.
We can do this shit.
Because it ain't all about that.
They ain't all the day.
That's shit about money.
I'm taking care of your family.
You need the money to take care of their.
That's shit.
They need to push that more.
They put the flip-vaders for all of the bullshit.
They don't never highlight them segments of these type of interviews.
Those are the shits that don't make it.
on Joe and Jay,
that you get that.
You know what I mean?
That's why we defend it.
That's right.
That's right.
He got that shit today.
He's all that shit.

Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called, Hey, Jonas.
We invented a podcast.
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
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.
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.
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.

And I know firsthand because I competed there myself.
I'm Renee Stubbs.
And on the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris.
every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on Clay.
Jen she went.
I mean, she went down at three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted.
She's an outsider to win the French for me.
And she likes Clay.
Listen, Lina Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now.
And I actually can win on any surface.
Because if she's serving, well, good luck.

Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged.
It's the enhanced games.
Some call it grotesque.
Others say it's unleashing human potential.
Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all,
embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year.
Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds.
I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth.

First of all, I want to know how could you afford this answer, but about 100 niggins.
There he goes exaggerating again, ladies and gentlemen.
The seven individuals over there.
17 right now.
Back in the day, it would have been 17.
It would have been 17.
It would have been 20, 37.
Right now, see, this spring.
We like, it's my team.
This is my team.
Everybody over here working right here.
You feel.
Oh, shit.
We all were.
You know, I did it.
It's famous.
I've talked about it before, but I'm also, I told him,
I think I invented the entourage with,
I'm telling you the truth.
The whole flag if you want, I don't give a fuck.
I'm telling you, you ask anybody you know,
Terra Squad, you see us, you know, you were there.
It's all good.
But I'm being honest with you.
I think I invented the entourage.
I would walk around with 45 niggas,
two tall buses, private plant,
whatever you could think of,
47 lobsters and steaks and bottles every day for years.
Right?
And one day, God told me,
yo, call all these niggas up.
We was in Puerto Rico.
The niggas was buying bottles at the bar that.
You know, we had it like that.
And then I stepped to them and I said,
yo, guess what?
I said, guess what?
I'm broke.
I said, that's it.
I'm broke.
I can't afford this no more.
You know, shit is fucked up,
which wasn't even true.
And out of the 45 niggas,
only five of them said,
yo, Joe, if you dead broke them with you every day,
my brother, I love you.
The other 40, you got the hell on.
And it was the best thing that ever happened to me in my life.
Right?
But the type of shit they were saying to me,
yo, we did this.
Yo, we did.
I'm like, niggas ain't made no son.
Niggas ain't gone no tall with me.
Well, what are these people talking about?
And they start thinking,
their money is your money.
They'd be entitled.
They'd be feeling entitled.
Titled.
They feeling like, you've got to do this.
I worried when I see such a large entourage
because I know what happened to me.
And I wish I would have did that 10 years before.
I would have millions and millions and millions of dollars.
I'm for sure.
We're fucking with all these people.
You know, and what about you?
Do you have, like, a survivor's guilt?
Y'all grew up here.
I got it.
Yeah, I just got a big heart.
When I first made it, you know, I love, I love my name from my hood.
But we grew up together if I fought with you.
I felt like, shit, I'm getting the seat of the world.
I want to take y'all to see the world.
Come on.
Like, shit.
We're from summer here.
Some niggil ain't never been to fucking making Georgia.
So we got down.
We're going everywhere.
We're saying different shit.
And, you know, to some people, that shit open up your mind
when you get to seeing different shit.
But some people, you know, they don't get it.
They just want to stay with that bullshit.
That's why they said that everybody can go shit.
I'm in Dubai.
First of all, if y'all don't know,
there's a lot of people here.
You know, this is the type of place I read about.
But when I'm in the projects in the Bronx,
I never think I'm going to no fucking Middle East, no Dubai.
That's the last shit.
You think you're going to Egypt or some shit like this.
So not only am I Dubai,
I'm in the royal palace where the kings and queens and the prince live.
What's your name over there?
Ali Qishani.
Salam al-a-a-a-a-a-a-oh.
So my thing is, I got a different name over there.
But my thing is I'm walking in the palace
and the nigga I got with me,
he got his pants under his ass.
He got his ass.
I look at this thing.
I said, man, I'm about to punch you in your face
in front of these people.
Like, you're a real disrespectful nigga.
You know what I'm saying?
Type of nigger you sit there and station live
because he's all in chicken tenderloin.
You know what I'm saying?
You know what I'm saying?
You know what they?
And he's violating in that shit.
I said, yo, everybody can't go.
You want to show him.
You want to be like, yo, check this out.
Man, they should live a life.
I was in the club one time by myself.
I usually go to the club, you know, deep all the time.
I was in there by myself one time.
And the girl, she walked up to me.
And she was like, you look better by yourself.
But back then, I never got what she was saying.
But it took me to go to jail, sit down,
And I thought about this shit again.
I'm like, damn, they're what she meant.
Because everybody knows.
I'm going to tell you where else you look better at by yourself.
When you go do business.
For sure.
Just we be scaring niggas away.
That's why all the weird niggas get the money.
The niggas who walk in with a skateboard and shit,
looking like fucking nerd-ass niggins.
They walk up in there and they're friendly.
I love you, skateboard community.
No disrespect.
We love all you niggas.
But the point is I'm saying,
the point I'm saying,
you know, I used to literally go in meetings
with the record label, like,
my nigga Pete came on for two murders.
This is Johnny Boxbox.
Cut a hundred niggins face.
This is one.
Them niggas probably was like,
let's get this nigga out of here.
So fucking fat.
Let's let his project flop so fast.
We do not want to deal with him.
with the nets.
The other nigger come up in there with the skateboard and shit,
looking all weird with the fucking tie with the thing.
Who you think they want to work with?
You know?
Because they think we already dangerous.
Confrontation.
Once we learn what the bag is,
it is what it is.
We're about to turn up on them.
You know what I'm saying?
The most dangerous, even in the drug game.
The connects want to give the pussy niggas to work.
No, I don't want to put this guy who's killing everybody in the world.
They don't want to put no bricks in this hand
because he's going to turn around and say,
They suck my dick.
I ain't got to pay you.
You pussy.
I'm not.
That's how I go.
Same thing with business.
So just a gym.
When you walk in them offices
where you're trying to pull off that bag,
you look better by yourself.
I'm sure.
Because these niggins are scared to death.
And they're looking and every like,
oh, no, we can't do this.
You know what I'm saying?
That's why I always respected the bird man
because he always came.
He had tattoos on his face,
all type of shit.
I see him in all the meetings.
You knew that he was dealing with him because he had so much value to him
because they would never deal with a guy like this.
But they, you know, it was respecting this and this and that.
But he had the roster.
He got Drake, Little Wayne, this, that the cash, Richard,
so they had to deal with him.
You understand what I'm saying?
But he's sitting up in there.
I see him in the meeting.
I'm like, damn, they never thought they'd be giving this nigga a billion dollars.
Well, he is what he is.
He's the source of whatever the case may be.
But at the end of the day,
Keep it clean.
Yeah, you keep it clean.
What was it like recording your first song after you got out?
How did I?
You wasn't on beat.
Was you on beat?
I was good.
When I did my first song, it wasn't to make it like,
I'm trying to make the hardest.
I just wanted to hit my voice again, see how I sound.
Once I did that, I'm like, oh, I still sound and sound good.
Went back the next day, he started smoking shit.
You thought your shit changed.
Because you know what's saying?
When you hit your stuff,
You're like, damn, I wanted, you know.
You know, I went in the studio the other day, first time in the year.
I sound pretty good.
Yeah.
I was impressed.
I said, damn for an old nigga, young old nigga.
I said, damn, man, you still got it, man.
You're talking to that shit.
You're good.
I go.
Like, I think this is the first time I checked myself.
This is the first time I went in the studio and I was like,
yo, I said, yo, I still got it.
I ain't retired, but I ain't going to studio in a year.
I just ain't going.
I was in.
And so when I went up in there, I was like, oh, shit, I'm still like, you know what I'm saying?
Because, you know, people fall off when they get old.
I might die if I don't go to the studio for one whole year.
You, busting rhymes, there's a lot of rappers that really in there.
I got to go to the studio.
I'm part of my life.
Even if I didn't go to the studio for a year, I'll probably be like,
something might happen to me, though.
This one I'm trying to tell you, I went in the studio, I went in my aunt.
He was great.
And I think I knocked one out the park, too.
I'm even going to lie to you.
I got that shit.
Oh, I got that.
Like, I know how to knock that shit out the park.
I went up in there, that shit was sounding like something.
I said, oh, shit.
Not only I ain't going a year, I might have caught a motherfucker.
Like, I'm talking about boy.
You're like, yo, this shit crazy.
Like, you got one.
I was like, y'all walked out of that bitch.
I said, damn, Joe, like, you, you know.
And so you, you got a big story.
to tell.
You went through so much shit
that's so relatable
with so many people
going in the studio
that might have been like
because you already
was in that pain
before you got locked up.
It made it easier.
That's how I feel
because I had a lot
more shit to talk about.
Yeah.
You feel the way?
So I was getting
all those songs
every song I did.
I made my album
like 30 days.
Down to every song
that I made
first made the hell out.
You see?
All of them
It's hard.
Yeah, because that's that real pain.
I'm sure.
You're talking about that shit, motherfucking, like, the pain where it's at?
You know what I'm saying?
You just got to let them know what you're going through better than even, you know,
when me and kids came up, it was more metaphors and bars and this and this and that.
I just feel like the pain.
If you talk about reality, shit, niggas is-
everybody can relate to that shit.
Everybody can relate to it.
And then, you know, now I'm rich, so I'll be rhyming about a lot of rich shit.
The nigger be like, yo, my niggas ain't in the Balenci.
Chill out, Joe.
Like, you're going, because I'm going hard.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm going to hear him to lay in Kelly's distance.
Diggum like, yo, Joe fans want to hear how you kill a couple of niggas,
how you this, this, that, that they don't want to hear all that shit, Joe, that fancy shit.
You know what I'm saying?
They don't want to hear that.
But I see.
They want to hear that sometime, though.
That's inspiration.
For me, it makes a nigger want to go get that.
And motivation.
Like, well, I got to go.
That's how I look.
Let me tell you something.
I don't deal with jealousy.
I don't deal with hate.
My biggest album ever was called
Jealous One Still Envy.
Because for me,
I've always looked at people
who do better than me
as motivation and restoration.
It got to a point,
well, at least social media wise,
when niggas ain't happy for niggas no more.
They're like, yo, fuck that.
I'm fucked off.
I'm pop.
What are you rubbing it in?
Why you keep flexing on the gram
and all that shit.
And then you'd be sitting there, you'd be like,
is it me or just we just didn't have social media
when we grew up to hear these guys?
Because, you know, when niggas talk a certain way
on social media, they bums.
You know they're bums.
This guys never got a bag in their life.
And they just mad at everybody
because they didn't find a way to get a bag.
You know, that's where I judge.
Yeah, that's where I judge these IG comments
and all these comments.
I'd be like, yo, these guys are bums.
You know what I'm saying?
You know, as long as you bless and you work hard for whatever you get,
don't mind how I do it.
And me, I try to inspire and try to tell me some things you've done for, like, your community, the youth.
You know, we do give-bats.
We do back-to-school drives.
We do Easter drives.
We do got Christmas drive, Thanksgiving, give by the turkeys.
And now let me explain something to you, right?
We always got critics, maybe even in our own communities that say, yo, hip-hop never did.
shit for nobody, this and this and that.
Well, how about the Easter drive,
the turkey drive, the Christmas drive,
the this, when I grew up,
they didn't give me shit.
They drove right by.
You know what the fuck shit is?
They didn't give me a fucking lollipop, my niggie.
You know what I'm saying?
They ain't give me a fucking thing.
Them niggas ain't giving me shit.
You understand?
They ain't give me a fucking thing.
I just want y'all to take.
the human.
I want you in every barber shop,
wherever whoever's watching is,
take this human aspect.
Think about when you was growing up,
did anybody ever come to your school
or your community and give you shit?
I'm talking about shit.
One thing.
A fucking ice spot.
No.
And so now you got an artist.
They always want to point the finger at,
but yet you're the first to,
you know, you got so many artists
sending airplanes full of food to Jamaica right now
because of the shit.
It's an artist.
You know, you got guys doing give back.
You every year I watch y'all give turkeys and everything and Jim give.
And we give thousands and thousands of family.
Thanksgiving's coming up.
We feed when I say thousands, and this year's going to be worse, they ain't got no snap.
Then the line's going to be low.
The line double now.
Right.
Line double.
And my line go around four blocks in each store.
I got three stores.
My line goes like this.
This shit going to probably go through the heart.
like 10 blocks.
You know, sometimes I get to the store.
I don't know how we're going to give them the food
because we give them the turkey, the rice, the yams,
the soup, the beans.
So we give me these niggas go with a win,
take all, my nigga.
They leave, yo, they leave winter take oil.
Not the soup.
Every person feeds the family.
I'm old when they say a little prayer for Joe Crack.
You know what I'm saying?
Like we're cutting the turkey, you know,
thanks to the fat guy, he fed us.
Know what I'm saying?
Protect him, God.
You know what I'm saying?
Because the prayer is serious.
Soup, everything.
Kiss, kiss.
You're invited to my giveaway.
So you can see, I don't play every year.
I'm covering for the soup.
But we're still in the line.
We're the bad guys.
Yeah, we have anything.
Guys, we ain't shit.
We don't give a fuck about nobody.
We're all about ourselves.
We this and this and that.
And that is not true.
You know, I even watch,
shout out to Jay Z Rock Nation for
you know,
provide us this beautiful space.
But Jay-Z, the other day,
he raised $20 million for reform,
paying for lawyers,
people's bells and all that.
And I'm reading under the comments,
he a billionaire,
that ain't shit this.
Your fucking father ain't buy you an underwear, nigger.
What?
Your father, the man who birthed you ain't give you a lollipop.
Fucked you looking at a man
who raised $20 million to give back
and you're like, yo, that ain't enough.
The fucking game, the street's got the game fucked up.
That's right.
It's the comments, man

Yeah, people just have to be right shit
The right shit
Yeah
No, it's incredible
But you gotta know

Of course you do
I forget who I sat next to
Recently
Somebody super
Super famous
I'm talking about like a white girl
Or something
That was super famous
And what she was doing

I looked to the side.
I'm like, you like,

I'm telling you, I was at an event
you don't read the comment.
With somebody super famous
some white girl
that's super famous
was sitting next to me.
He was reading it.
I call him.
It's no way he can fulfill
the smoke of every comment.
Oh, yeah.
See, I don't trip out the comment, though.
I just want to say.
You know, I got to.
He got to come back.
I was it to.
Oh, you got to say?
I was going to get it to him.
Yeah, I just don't give a fuck
how rich you think I am, how much this, this, that.
I don't care if you the nigga he came on for 20 years
and you think you got a new blog, I'll tell you suck my dick.
Damn.
Quick.
I don't give a fuck.
Excuse me, ladies.
This is a family show.
I wasn't performing at their welcome home concert.
That's different than going in the booth going on.
That shit was different.
You know, like before I went to jail, I ain't never did stay formed by myself.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, that was a big deal.
to come home and got down sell out state for them.
And it was wife and losing a friend,
but we didn't announce no friend.
And it'd be sold out.
You got love for you, man.
And I feel like I got all because I did like 23 songs.
The whole statement, word for word, every one on it.
That's just so good.
That's like there's no feeling better than that.
I was so.
I don't like that shit felt great.
You're like a dream come true.
You sold out stadium, and they're saying that in the word.
You was just fighting 200 years in jail.
And now you're on the stadium.
That shit must be.
You probably couldn't sleep the night before, right?
Like, that's one of them shits.
I would get up.
I was ready for that shit.
I was like, why can't wait?
You was hoping somebody was there, right?
That was that type of shit.
I never forget.
I had to show my first show in the Bronx.
You know, we're tearing up the Bronx.
Man, we're giving them hell at this.
time, you know, we wasn't the most like niggas in the Bronx, you know what I'm saying?
Because we just, and I remember I'm waiting for my first show, was at the fever, and then I'm
waiting and waiting and I sent my man's over there.
He was like, yo, there's lines around the block.
That's how I be.
I was like, yo, they fucking with me.
They're coming to the show.
Holy shit.

We have some big news.
What's the news?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We're the first people to do podcasts.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts.
We're starting a trend.
But this one's extra special.
So how do 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.
Oh, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early.
names of our band before Jonas Brothers
was...
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.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.

It's the enhanced games.

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.
Listen to the psychology of your 20s on the IHeart Radio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
The story I've told myself can then shape my behavior, and that can lead me to sabotage the possibility of connection.
This Mental Health Awareness Month, tune into the podcast Deeply Well with Debbie Brown if you've been searching for a soft place to land while doing the work to become whole.
This podcast is for you to hear more.
