Champagne sharks, champagne sharks. How's is everybody doing?

Coast edition, everybody's been asking.

19
00:01:21,953 --> 00:01:23,865
Everybody's been asking for the West Coast sharks.

20
00:01:24,024 --> 00:01:26,747
We haven't done 1 in my goodness probably

21
00:01:26,747 --> 00:01:28,977
the pandemic. It's been a minute, bro. Been

22
00:01:28,977 --> 00:01:31,366
the mid. Yeah. It's definitely been better. I

23
00:01:31,366 --> 00:01:33,197
think the last 1 you and I did

24
00:01:33,197 --> 00:01:33,516
together.

25
00:01:35,362 --> 00:01:37,270
I think we tried to do 1 1

26
00:01:37,270 --> 00:01:38,644
night and it just you

27
00:01:39,257 --> 00:01:41,801
is Yeah. Technology. Yeah. That was a while

28
00:01:41,801 --> 00:01:43,566
ago. That was that was quite a few

29
00:01:43,566 --> 00:01:45,318
ago. And then I think we did 1...

30
00:01:45,556 --> 00:01:47,149
Yeah. I like the 1 we did when

31
00:01:47,149 --> 00:01:48,901
we were talking about that Evil the the

32
00:01:48,901 --> 00:01:51,704
the Tv series Evil? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

33
00:01:51,864 --> 00:01:53,644
When we were talking about, like, the sell

34
00:01:53,704 --> 00:01:55,385
shit that was going on with that particular.

35
00:01:55,784 --> 00:01:57,625
Said that that was just me you, but

36
00:01:57,625 --> 00:01:59,239
even that was like... 3 4 years That

37
00:01:59,239 --> 00:02:01,239
was at least 2 3 years ago. The

38
00:02:01,239 --> 00:02:03,020
original the original West coast

39
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,120
episode happened in 20 20 or 20 19.

40
00:02:06,453 --> 00:02:08,522
That was no first 1 that we did.

41
00:02:08,682 --> 00:02:10,512
And that 1 was really deep. That 1

42
00:02:10,512 --> 00:02:12,342
was really dead. And I think of the

43
00:02:12,342 --> 00:02:14,189
reason why a lot of people liked that

44
00:02:14,189 --> 00:02:16,026
episode is 1, you never really get a

45
00:02:16,186 --> 00:02:19,302
West coast perspective from Black folks that ain't

46
00:02:19,302 --> 00:02:21,034
on the bullshit. You know I'm saying? That

47
00:02:21,555 --> 00:02:23,395
it's very it's it's very rare that you'll

48
00:02:23,395 --> 00:02:25,895
get authenticity that doesn't involve

49
00:02:26,915 --> 00:02:28,843
whether it's the typical weather coast stuff people

50
00:02:28,843 --> 00:02:30,190
know about. You know what I'm saying? Whether

51
00:02:30,190 --> 00:02:32,171
there's game bang, rap, you know, stuff like

52
00:02:32,171 --> 00:02:32,884
that Like, you know,

53
00:02:33,597 --> 00:02:35,102
I tell people all the time, Like, growing

54
00:02:35,102 --> 00:02:37,507
up, Being born in California but then being

55
00:02:37,507 --> 00:02:39,500
raised in Portland. Like, Talked to Vid on

56
00:02:39,500 --> 00:02:40,696
the phone the other day. And I told

57
00:02:40,696 --> 00:02:42,370
her Said, I don't really tell people that

58
00:02:42,370 --> 00:02:43,805
where I'm from because I was raised here.

59
00:02:44,219 --> 00:02:46,217
You what Saying? I was raised in Portland

60
00:02:46,297 --> 00:02:48,076
Oregon, but I was raised in pre

61
00:02:48,615 --> 00:02:51,193
Portland Oregon, which is a different world. In

62
00:02:51,252 --> 00:02:53,625
completely different world than than the world that

63
00:02:53,744 --> 00:02:56,298
Portland is right now. So the way I

64
00:02:56,298 --> 00:02:58,771
see things is gonna be very similar to

65
00:02:58,771 --> 00:03:00,388
the way a lot of people in pre

66
00:03:00,686 --> 00:03:04,053
Seattle, Preacher 5 San Francisco and La. You

67
00:03:04,053 --> 00:03:06,209
know, also southern in California, it it was

68
00:03:06,209 --> 00:03:08,284
really... We marched to the beat of the

69
00:03:08,364 --> 00:03:09,721
La drum. You know what I'm saying where

70
00:03:09,721 --> 00:03:11,805
there was music, politics, a lot of things

71
00:03:11,805 --> 00:03:14,292
that black folks on the West Coast we

72
00:03:14,349 --> 00:03:17,051
connected, and it's funny because there's a African

73
00:03:17,210 --> 00:03:17,687
American

74
00:03:18,258 --> 00:03:20,406
this it's called the Pacific Northwest African American

75
00:03:20,645 --> 00:03:23,111
Museum. Is in Seattle. And this museum is

76
00:03:23,111 --> 00:03:25,020
1 of those you're here too. Every here.

77
00:03:25,194 --> 00:03:27,352
See has a African American history museum but

78
00:03:27,352 --> 00:03:29,109
go ahead. Well, Portland Portland ain't got 1.

79
00:03:29,269 --> 00:03:31,746
But that... I I digress. Yeah. Maybe maybe

80
00:03:31,746 --> 00:03:33,516
1 day. Maybe 1 day. You know. But

81
00:03:33,516 --> 00:03:35,822
in Seattle, they have 1. And it shows

82
00:03:35,822 --> 00:03:37,333
how when Black folks came to the West

83
00:03:37,333 --> 00:03:40,117
coast during both migrations that we went to

84
00:03:40,117 --> 00:03:42,685
1 of 5 different places. Southern California, the

85
00:03:42,844 --> 00:03:45,485
Bay Area, Portland, Tacoma, Seattle. You know Saying?

86
00:03:45,645 --> 00:03:48,444
So we're all connected. You know, But I

87
00:03:48,444 --> 00:03:49,805
also think that a lot of people don't

88
00:03:49,805 --> 00:03:50,305
realize

89
00:03:50,619 --> 00:03:52,632
How we process things

90
00:03:53,087 --> 00:03:54,122
mentally. You know what I'm saying on the

91
00:03:54,202 --> 00:03:55,874
West Coast as a as a black man

92
00:03:55,874 --> 00:03:58,502
and as as black people. We process process

93
00:03:58,502 --> 00:04:01,395
things a little differently than other places. And

94
00:04:01,395 --> 00:04:02,514
we get the hate. You know what I'm

95
00:04:02,514 --> 00:04:04,115
saying? We hear a lot of... I hear

96
00:04:04,115 --> 00:04:05,155
a lot of. I see a lot of

97
00:04:05,155 --> 00:04:06,435
it on social media, and I think a

98
00:04:06,435 --> 00:04:07,495
lot of it is jealousy

99
00:04:08,289 --> 00:04:10,530
I think a lot of times, people wish.

100
00:04:10,770 --> 00:04:12,129
I ain't gonna say they wish they lived

101
00:04:12,129 --> 00:04:14,050
out here, but there is there is some

102
00:04:14,050 --> 00:04:15,250
benefits that's living out here. You know what

103
00:04:15,250 --> 00:04:16,623
when we talk about weather, know what Saying

104
00:04:16,623 --> 00:04:18,219
things like that. There is some benefits to

105
00:04:18,219 --> 00:04:19,735
it, but I noticed that and I wanna

106
00:04:19,735 --> 00:04:21,171
know what you think about this. I noticed

107
00:04:21,171 --> 00:04:22,847
that a lot of people really focus on

108
00:04:22,847 --> 00:04:24,774
the whole fact that, you they think that

109
00:04:24,774 --> 00:04:26,842
brothers out here just have access to white

110
00:04:26,842 --> 00:04:29,308
women and Mexican women and Asia asian. We're

111
00:04:29,308 --> 00:04:31,153
like, we just just dating everybody. We just,

112
00:04:31,232 --> 00:04:32,665
you know, we just got a buffet line

113
00:04:32,665 --> 00:04:33,143
of women.

114
00:04:35,691 --> 00:04:37,283
That we get you just run through. You

115
00:04:37,283 --> 00:04:38,795
know don't say just don't live out here.

116
00:04:39,129 --> 00:04:40,722
Well, I think I think part of the

117
00:04:40,722 --> 00:04:41,678
problem is that,

118
00:04:42,315 --> 00:04:44,226
you know, Hollywood plays a big role in

119
00:04:44,226 --> 00:04:46,138
that. Right? When you talk about movies when

120
00:04:46,138 --> 00:04:48,541
you talk about the entertainment industry. Even when

121
00:04:48,541 --> 00:04:50,608
you throw in the music industry, it puts

122
00:04:50,608 --> 00:04:53,471
out certain messages, it puts out a certain,

123
00:04:53,789 --> 00:04:56,413
rather it's subliminal or outright, you get the

124
00:04:56,413 --> 00:04:59,697
image of the West coast, California in particular.

125
00:04:59,857 --> 00:05:01,236
And then southern California,

126
00:05:01,615 --> 00:05:03,054
just super in particular,

127
00:05:03,853 --> 00:05:07,224
la has just 1 big dot cotton So

128
00:05:07,224 --> 00:05:09,222
on 1 end, you got just nothing but

129
00:05:09,222 --> 00:05:10,979
hood nigga. And then on the other end,

130
00:05:11,219 --> 00:05:14,016
is Hollywood, and then there's just celebrities walking

131
00:05:14,016 --> 00:05:16,495
around everywhere. Where the truth of the matter

132
00:05:16,495 --> 00:05:18,319
is, man like, when you get here,

133
00:05:19,033 --> 00:05:19,929
oftentimes your

134
00:05:20,381 --> 00:05:22,046
expectations are not gonna be met because it's

135
00:05:22,046 --> 00:05:23,410
not like that you know what I'm saying?

136
00:05:23,648 --> 00:05:26,984
Hollywood ain't Hollywood. Bro. It really you it's

137
00:05:26,984 --> 00:05:29,685
not Hollywood is not a cool place. It's

138
00:05:29,685 --> 00:05:31,368
a cool place to hang out. You if

139
00:05:31,368 --> 00:05:33,276
you know the right people and things like

140
00:05:33,276 --> 00:05:35,184
that. But when you actually go to Hollywood,

141
00:05:35,264 --> 00:05:36,933
and I'm out there on a regular basis.

142
00:05:37,172 --> 00:05:39,494
It's not what you think it is. You're

143
00:05:39,494 --> 00:05:42,285
not gonna walk around and see select Murphy.

144
00:05:42,604 --> 00:05:44,438
Yeah. You're not that... That's just not how

145
00:05:44,438 --> 00:05:46,592
it is, bro. And as far as like

146
00:05:46,592 --> 00:05:48,665
the gangs, you actually have to go.

147
00:05:49,399 --> 00:05:52,675
Specific to specific areas to get around boys

148
00:05:52,675 --> 00:05:54,433
in the hood. You know what I'm. Yeah.

149
00:05:54,673 --> 00:05:56,911
Yeah. I think the perception of people that

150
00:05:56,911 --> 00:05:59,397
are not from here due to media due

151
00:05:59,397 --> 00:06:01,249
to music, all of that. Is

152
00:06:01,625 --> 00:06:05,046
everywhere is either, you know, universal studios or

153
00:06:05,046 --> 00:06:08,000
is boys in the hood and administer to

154
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,747
society with in fact it's not like that.

155
00:06:10,382 --> 00:06:12,447
The majority of it is a lot more

156
00:06:12,447 --> 00:06:13,320
complex than that,

157
00:06:14,131 --> 00:06:15,983
you go to the hood in Los Angeles

158
00:06:16,437 --> 00:06:18,449
and to someone from

159
00:06:18,983 --> 00:06:21,625
Alabama or certain parts New York, certain parts

160
00:06:21,625 --> 00:06:24,014
of new Jersey, that shit looks lip like

161
00:06:24,014 --> 00:06:26,404
nigga just the hood. Like what. Yeah. And

162
00:06:26,404 --> 00:06:28,794
then... But you just don't understand, like, because

163
00:06:28,794 --> 00:06:30,483
it may look a certain once way, the

164
00:06:30,483 --> 00:06:33,195
level of danger is still on 10. You

165
00:06:33,195 --> 00:06:35,348
know what I mean? Yeah. And I I

166
00:06:35,348 --> 00:06:37,502
think that throws a lot of people off

167
00:06:37,502 --> 00:06:39,256
when they get here. Now as far as

168
00:06:39,256 --> 00:06:41,652
like, the biased, though. I I don't I

169
00:06:41,652 --> 00:06:43,791
don't know where that specifically comes from.

170
00:06:44,663 --> 00:06:47,095
I think you still a lot now really

171
00:06:47,294 --> 00:06:48,490
You didn't you you didn't use to see

172
00:06:48,490 --> 00:06:50,165
it back in the day. You really didn't

173
00:06:50,165 --> 00:06:51,601
and you know what's was funny is it's

174
00:06:51,601 --> 00:06:52,797
funny you was saying that about,

175
00:06:53,595 --> 00:06:56,227
how people see la. I reminds me at

176
00:06:56,307 --> 00:06:58,797
Beverly Hills cop. Like, when Axel Foley, I

177
00:06:58,957 --> 00:07:00,395
I don't know I don't know if anybody

178
00:07:00,395 --> 00:07:02,233
ever caught this about Beverly hills cop. He

179
00:07:02,233 --> 00:07:03,591
drove that ragged and he has an nova

180
00:07:03,591 --> 00:07:04,710
all the way from detroit the La.

181
00:07:05,685 --> 00:07:06,964
Do you ever you ever think about that?

182
00:07:07,125 --> 00:07:08,324
Because remember when he met with

183
00:07:09,045 --> 00:07:10,644
his home girl. She asked him what he

184
00:07:10,644 --> 00:07:12,324
was driving, and he said he was still

185
00:07:12,324 --> 00:07:14,084
driving The nova, and he was... He really

186
00:07:14,084 --> 00:07:16,169
was. And it didn't to you're they're like,

187
00:07:16,328 --> 00:07:17,760
damn, doesn't make a really job that shit

188
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,510
let them detroit, But I think that's that's

189
00:07:19,510 --> 00:07:20,862
the joke within the joke. You know what

190
00:07:20,942 --> 00:07:22,466
I'm saying? Right. Right But when he gets

191
00:07:22,466 --> 00:07:24,372
to when he gets to hollywood to beverly

192
00:07:24,372 --> 00:07:26,674
court unquote Beverly Hills, which ain't that big.

193
00:07:26,833 --> 00:07:29,532
It's almost like he's driving all around La.

194
00:07:29,691 --> 00:07:31,860
You what Saying Like. Right Beverly Hills is

195
00:07:31,860 --> 00:07:35,000
this huge place, and I don't think people

196
00:07:35,060 --> 00:07:36,660
understand that Beverly Hills ain't that far away

197
00:07:36,660 --> 00:07:38,500
from the hood, not at all. If if

198
00:07:38,500 --> 00:07:39,000
anything,

199
00:07:39,460 --> 00:07:40,512
you're you're you're

200
00:07:41,227 --> 00:07:43,931
you'll be amazed by how much damn traffic

201
00:07:43,931 --> 00:07:45,839
you gonna be in if anything. Yeah. You

202
00:07:45,839 --> 00:07:47,509
know 1 of the things that told me

203
00:07:47,509 --> 00:07:49,675
to your point? That people don't really understand

204
00:07:49,675 --> 00:07:52,625
the geography of Los Angeles is when people

205
00:07:52,625 --> 00:07:55,256
talk about the the Rodney king riots, and

206
00:07:55,256 --> 00:07:57,503
they they go to the infamous you know,

207
00:07:57,662 --> 00:07:58,162
Korean

208
00:07:58,538 --> 00:08:00,847
rooftop Korean. Yeah. Yeah You see, you know,

209
00:08:01,006 --> 00:08:03,474
the Koreans defending their shops during the rise.

210
00:08:03,713 --> 00:08:06,353
People literally think that, that was in the

211
00:08:06,353 --> 00:08:07,784
hood where that was going on.

212
00:08:08,420 --> 00:08:10,407
That shit was not in South Central Los

213
00:08:10,566 --> 00:08:11,440
Angeles at all.

214
00:08:13,364 --> 00:08:15,202
Some of their liquor stores are in South

215
00:08:15,282 --> 00:08:17,759
Central Los Angeles, but the footage that you've

216
00:08:17,759 --> 00:08:20,715
seen is actually closer to, like, the Wi

217
00:08:20,715 --> 00:08:23,287
district. Yeah. Like, it's closer to, like, Echo

218
00:08:23,447 --> 00:08:25,923
Park and yeah is over beer. It's it's

219
00:08:25,923 --> 00:08:28,400
it's a lot of Koreans and Mexicans over

220
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,481
that way. It's not really too many black

221
00:08:30,481 --> 00:08:32,227
people over that way. And 1 of the

222
00:08:32,227 --> 00:08:35,243
guys who was actually defending the property. He

223
00:08:35,243 --> 00:08:37,306
told you. On camera. I I was talking

224
00:08:37,306 --> 00:08:39,951
of find that interview. He literally said, I

225
00:08:39,951 --> 00:08:41,886
didn't see no black people, the people know

226
00:08:42,103 --> 00:08:43,857
nerd. Yeah. He said the people were shooting

227
00:08:43,857 --> 00:08:46,065
that were Mexican. You literally said that on

228
00:08:46,184 --> 00:08:48,254
fail. Yes. And they just kinda brush over

229
00:08:48,254 --> 00:08:49,687
that part and... Well they what they do

230
00:08:49,687 --> 00:08:51,996
is they call his names run around writing

231
00:08:51,996 --> 00:08:55,037
in Korea town like, no. Wasn't nick, you

232
00:08:55,037 --> 00:08:57,188
know, they always get that screenshot of them

233
00:08:57,188 --> 00:08:58,860
on the rooftop with the with the rifles,

234
00:08:59,019 --> 00:09:01,090
but they never show what's below them and

235
00:09:01,090 --> 00:09:03,161
what was going on. And Right. And that's

236
00:09:03,161 --> 00:09:05,087
another Think that's another thing is that a

237
00:09:05,087 --> 00:09:06,839
lot... What, I'm a speak from a black

238
00:09:06,839 --> 00:09:09,307
perspective, and Don't wanna speak for of black

239
00:09:09,307 --> 00:09:10,740
people in other regions, but I'm just tell

240
00:09:10,740 --> 00:09:12,108
you what it looks like the off. It's

241
00:09:12,108 --> 00:09:13,378
where it looks like to me is, like,

242
00:09:13,616 --> 00:09:14,512
I think sometimes

243
00:09:14,885 --> 00:09:16,869
for us, like, our family members. I'm sure

244
00:09:16,869 --> 00:09:18,139
you got family in the south that came

245
00:09:18,139 --> 00:09:19,409
from the south. My family came from the

246
00:09:19,409 --> 00:09:19,909
south

247
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,046
weeks. South. Yeah. But we've been out here

248
00:09:22,046 --> 00:09:23,955
for 70 years. You know don't saying my

249
00:09:23,955 --> 00:09:25,546
grandparents moved from the south and the thirties.

250
00:09:25,705 --> 00:09:27,535
You know don't say 19 twenties, 19 thirties

251
00:09:27,708 --> 00:09:29,293
Well, my, let me take that back. My

252
00:09:29,293 --> 00:09:31,116
mom's side all came from the south my

253
00:09:31,116 --> 00:09:33,494
dad's side, my biological father, they all came

254
00:09:33,494 --> 00:09:33,811
from

255
00:09:34,445 --> 00:09:36,291
new Jersey Oh, wow thought. Yeah. I down.

256
00:09:36,530 --> 00:09:38,684
He's clarified at yeah. Yeah yeah. Oh, wow.

257
00:09:38,843 --> 00:09:41,736
See so so being that we've been 3

258
00:09:41,874 --> 00:09:43,948
generations removed from living in the south. Like,

259
00:09:44,107 --> 00:09:45,956
I don't know. I might I might know

260
00:09:45,956 --> 00:09:48,189
a couple relatives that's still living itself. I

261
00:09:48,269 --> 00:09:49,544
I don't really know them though. You know

262
00:09:49,544 --> 00:09:51,618
what I'm saying? That we went on, we

263
00:09:51,618 --> 00:09:52,973
was looking for. Me and my dad was

264
00:09:52,973 --> 00:09:55,690
looking for a relative for Memorial veterans day.

265
00:09:55,848 --> 00:09:57,196
We have a cousin he fought the Korean

266
00:09:57,355 --> 00:09:59,099
Warren and he was looking for his heads

267
00:09:59,099 --> 00:10:02,924
stone at the, veteran's cemetery And we've stumbled

268
00:10:02,924 --> 00:10:05,234
upon this whole family tree thing of these

269
00:10:05,234 --> 00:10:07,305
family members that we don't know, but we

270
00:10:07,305 --> 00:10:08,738
didn't... We don't know them because the last

271
00:10:08,738 --> 00:10:10,331
names got changed because a marriage and all

272
00:10:10,331 --> 00:10:11,303
the other kind of stuff,

273
00:10:11,941 --> 00:10:14,176
and they're in, like, Detroit and places like

274
00:10:14,176 --> 00:10:15,613
that, but we've never met. We don't know

275
00:10:15,613 --> 00:10:16,969
them, but they are related to it us,

276
00:10:17,049 --> 00:10:19,298
like straight blood. You know? Sure. And And

277
00:10:19,298 --> 00:10:19,538
and

278
00:10:20,176 --> 00:10:21,075
I think sometimes

279
00:10:21,613 --> 00:10:24,007
because we're so removed from the south, I

280
00:10:24,007 --> 00:10:25,842
think it gets miss cons to what is

281
00:10:25,842 --> 00:10:27,373
even like living out here. For a lot

282
00:10:27,373 --> 00:10:28,884
of black folks that live in the South.

283
00:10:29,202 --> 00:10:30,713
Because if you live in the south in

284
00:10:30,713 --> 00:10:33,123
places like Jackson, Mississippi, Birmingham,

285
00:10:34,229 --> 00:10:34,729
Jacksonville,

286
00:10:35,344 --> 00:10:37,653
even in Texas Houston. You pretty much can

287
00:10:37,653 --> 00:10:38,847
go all day, and don't see no white.

288
00:10:39,007 --> 00:10:40,679
You what Saying? You you ain't gotta worry

289
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,112
about not seeing no white people. You don't

290
00:10:42,112 --> 00:10:43,964
see only your yourself. And when you only

291
00:10:43,964 --> 00:10:46,284
see yourself. So when you only see yourself

292
00:10:46,284 --> 00:10:48,524
and the things that happen is against each

293
00:10:48,524 --> 00:10:50,684
other, whether it's crime, whether it's happiness is

294
00:10:50,684 --> 00:10:53,727
pain, whatever, you start to think about... Think

295
00:10:53,727 --> 00:10:55,872
about... Sometimes, I think a lot of people

296
00:10:55,872 --> 00:10:57,621
think about how they can get away from

297
00:10:57,621 --> 00:11:00,243
being around themselves. Right. So they think that

298
00:11:00,243 --> 00:11:02,406
we just inter ming with white folks and

299
00:11:02,406 --> 00:11:04,156
white people come, hey. But would you like

300
00:11:04,156 --> 00:11:05,668
to call me? Here you go, buddy. Right.

301
00:11:05,827 --> 00:11:07,658
Right. Just break coffee and shit. Like, they

302
00:11:07,658 --> 00:11:08,946
ain't like that. You know what I'm saying?

303
00:11:09,185 --> 00:11:10,617
So I think that... That's part of it.

304
00:11:10,776 --> 00:11:12,129
I'm not gonna say it's jealousy. I think

305
00:11:12,129 --> 00:11:14,516
it might be your curiosity, but also, I

306
00:11:14,516 --> 00:11:16,607
do believe that a lot of this happened

307
00:11:16,824 --> 00:11:19,709
because of celebrity and mainly Nigga like Kanye

308
00:11:19,869 --> 00:11:22,583
West when they became popular to start Dayton

309
00:11:22,583 --> 00:11:25,956
and married these racially ambiguous armenian look females

310
00:11:26,189 --> 00:11:27,783
That's when a lot of them dudes was

311
00:11:27,783 --> 00:11:29,776
like, man, hey, man. The fuck. Nigga because

312
00:11:29,776 --> 00:11:31,211
on the west coast getting know these bad

313
00:11:31,211 --> 00:11:32,726
bitches bro. We don't even know these bras,

314
00:11:32,885 --> 00:11:33,922
but we don't know these people.

315
00:11:34,734 --> 00:11:36,031
I. I took love.

316
00:11:38,241 --> 00:11:40,155
But they all from out this way, though.

317
00:11:40,314 --> 00:11:42,227
You know what You're saying. So when you

318
00:11:42,227 --> 00:11:43,916
when you make it big as a West

319
00:11:44,075 --> 00:11:46,465
Coast artist bro. You don't have to leave...

320
00:11:46,704 --> 00:11:48,616
Well, back then. You didn't anyway. It's probably

321
00:11:48,616 --> 00:11:50,607
a little different now, But you didn't have

322
00:11:50,607 --> 00:11:53,170
to leave La to go. You could come

323
00:11:53,170 --> 00:11:55,714
from the hood having never really been work

324
00:11:55,714 --> 00:11:58,019
to the beach or anywhere nice, and you

325
00:11:58,019 --> 00:11:59,927
make it big and wrapping her whatever or

326
00:11:59,927 --> 00:12:02,252
sports. And you go to Cal. You go

327
00:12:02,252 --> 00:12:05,518
to Hollywood Hills. You go to Laurel Canyon.

328
00:12:05,677 --> 00:12:06,792
You go to fucking,

329
00:12:07,843 --> 00:12:09,914
Pacific Palace sage and shit like that. And

330
00:12:09,914 --> 00:12:11,747
it's like a whole different world. And it's

331
00:12:11,747 --> 00:12:14,456
literally just 15 miles away shit. The team

332
00:12:14,456 --> 00:12:16,766
miles like a whole different world for these

333
00:12:16,766 --> 00:12:18,854
dudes and you get access to a totally

334
00:12:18,854 --> 00:12:19,912
different caliber

335
00:12:20,529 --> 00:12:23,718
of woman or, you know, romantic partner whatever

336
00:12:23,718 --> 00:12:25,791
you're into, and you never really even have

337
00:12:25,791 --> 00:12:28,931
to leave Los Angeles where other people come.

338
00:12:29,544 --> 00:12:30,975
To be dating a woman that's not black.

339
00:12:31,134 --> 00:12:32,882
That's not a feather name it's definitely not

340
00:12:32,882 --> 00:12:34,807
a feather in your camp. That out here.

341
00:12:35,047 --> 00:12:36,961
Right. Right. It's not a feather in your

342
00:12:36,961 --> 00:12:39,832
cat, but it it it... I'll say that

343
00:12:39,832 --> 00:12:41,587
and I was having this conversation with my

344
00:12:41,587 --> 00:12:43,262
son. You know, he's interested in going into

345
00:12:43,262 --> 00:12:45,828
the gaming and whatnot. Yeah. And he and

346
00:12:45,908 --> 00:12:48,300
I had a very real conversation man. And

347
00:12:48,300 --> 00:12:50,394
he just, like, you know, he's very dedicated

348
00:12:50,532 --> 00:12:52,127
to being in with a black woman. Like,

349
00:12:52,286 --> 00:12:54,291
he wants he's on this pro black thing,

350
00:12:54,450 --> 00:12:56,518
and he wants to be with a black

351
00:12:56,518 --> 00:12:59,382
woman. And I'm not... I'm not be, you

352
00:12:59,382 --> 00:13:01,068
know, by saying he's on this pro black

353
00:13:01,068 --> 00:13:02,580
thing. I'm I'm a hundred percent with him

354
00:13:02,580 --> 00:13:04,650
on that. I, I'm not be believing that

355
00:13:04,650 --> 00:13:06,560
at all. But... So during the course of

356
00:13:06,560 --> 00:13:09,043
the conversation, I said, well, you know, you're

357
00:13:09,043 --> 00:13:11,434
gonna have to be very intentional about dating

358
00:13:11,434 --> 00:13:14,382
a black woman because in your industry, if

359
00:13:14,382 --> 00:13:14,914
you don't

360
00:13:15,432 --> 00:13:17,977
intentionally seek after black women. You are very

361
00:13:17,977 --> 00:13:19,909
likely not gonna find black women.

362
00:13:20,602 --> 00:13:22,352
Yeah. You what I'm saying, like, that's just...

363
00:13:22,591 --> 00:13:24,513
You may come across a stray hair and

364
00:13:24,513 --> 00:13:25,386
there, but Yeah...

365
00:13:26,021 --> 00:13:28,639
Your everyday life, you're going to be working

366
00:13:28,639 --> 00:13:30,464
with people who are not your skin tone.

367
00:13:30,702 --> 00:13:33,434
Yeah. And his in his industry, absolutely. Right.

368
00:13:33,674 --> 00:13:35,355
And so I think that's what it needs

369
00:13:35,355 --> 00:13:36,875
to be taken to account. We talk about

370
00:13:36,875 --> 00:13:39,207
these brothers that get with these different races

371
00:13:39,207 --> 00:13:41,278
of women. Once they leave the hook, if

372
00:13:41,278 --> 00:13:42,711
they ever lived in the hook because you

373
00:13:42,711 --> 00:13:44,065
know, you do got black folks that were

374
00:13:44,065 --> 00:13:47,384
just raised in Yeah. Cal and shit. My

375
00:13:47,504 --> 00:13:49,578
and they were raised in chin Hills or

376
00:13:49,578 --> 00:13:52,050
corona or whatever far removed from the hood.

377
00:13:52,289 --> 00:13:55,480
Yeah. Out here. So you if you get

378
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,885
it to industries where when you move to

379
00:13:57,885 --> 00:14:00,669
certain places. The demographics change bro like, it's

380
00:14:00,669 --> 00:14:02,658
not many of us there. And most of

381
00:14:02,658 --> 00:14:04,901
us are not thinking like, man. I gotta

382
00:14:04,901 --> 00:14:06,174
give it a black Gotta get black. Gotta

383
00:14:06,174 --> 00:14:08,243
get black. No. They have wife. And they're

384
00:14:08,243 --> 00:14:10,949
gonna get where they're around and look around

385
00:14:10,949 --> 00:14:12,876
and they're gonna see who they're with. And

386
00:14:12,876 --> 00:14:14,948
when you're working closely with people on a

387
00:14:14,948 --> 00:14:17,737
regular basis, sexual attraction is gonna happen, and

388
00:14:17,737 --> 00:14:19,411
then you're gonna get with who you get

389
00:14:19,411 --> 00:14:21,342
with. Know what I'm saying? That's just how

390
00:14:21,342 --> 00:14:23,739
it naturally go. So I think people need

391
00:14:23,739 --> 00:14:25,736
to take that into a consideration when you

392
00:14:25,736 --> 00:14:28,066
talk about the dynamics of you know, who

393
00:14:28,066 --> 00:14:29,978
these brothers start dating when they get to

394
00:14:29,978 --> 00:14:32,470
certain places or whatnot. You gotta be very

395
00:14:32,926 --> 00:14:35,396
intentional. Yes. If you wanna date, black women,

396
00:14:35,555 --> 00:14:37,323
you don't have to go looking for Black

397
00:14:37,323 --> 00:14:38,360
women. Look, I'm... Look,

398
00:14:39,158 --> 00:14:40,514
and that's a lot of ended. Look. I'm

399
00:14:40,514 --> 00:14:42,188
in the education industry. I hate to call

400
00:14:42,188 --> 00:14:43,943
it the industry, but I'm in that educational

401
00:14:43,943 --> 00:14:47,149
system. Right. And it doesn't matter... Where You

402
00:14:47,149 --> 00:14:49,705
know, in unless I'm living in Atlanta or,

403
00:14:50,504 --> 00:14:52,901
Dallas Texas used in in New Orleans. It's

404
00:14:52,901 --> 00:14:54,829
gonna be predominantly white. You know I'm saying?

405
00:14:54,988 --> 00:14:56,341
The school I work at. I'm 1 of

406
00:14:56,341 --> 00:14:57,852
2 black people. And the other black person

407
00:14:57,852 --> 00:14:59,284
is a the 75 year old black.

408
00:15:00,557 --> 00:15:02,645
Okay? He's married to a black woman, but

409
00:15:02,645 --> 00:15:04,560
it's just it's 1 of those things where

410
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:05,757
you be like them. You know what Saying?

411
00:15:05,917 --> 00:15:07,672
And, you know, we always have we we

412
00:15:07,672 --> 00:15:09,843

00:15:09,843 --> 00:15:12,161
black teachers, we we need more black administrators

414
00:15:12,161 --> 00:15:14,239
that duh. And, you know, for whatever reason,

415
00:15:14,558 --> 00:15:16,316
much like the industry your son is going

416
00:15:16,316 --> 00:15:18,647

00:19:03,046 --> 00:19:03,286
situation,

527
00:19:03,925 --> 00:19:05,044
exacerbated a lot of this,

528
00:19:05,763 --> 00:19:08,320
Mark Allen his weirdo as Marcus Allen and

529
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,750
his bullshit. It's a lot of its celebrity

530
00:19:10,887 --> 00:19:12,640
of making people believe because I see a

531
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,154
lot of dudes going online. You know the

532
00:19:14,711 --> 00:19:17,115
Brand black. Try to la White. You know

533
00:19:17,115 --> 00:19:19,580

534
00:19:19,580 --> 00:19:21,806
front line when that whole situation was going

535
00:19:21,806 --> 00:19:23,635
on. That ain't what happen. Right. I'm here

536
00:19:23,635 --> 00:19:24,987
to tell, but see. They don't listen to

537
00:19:24,987 --> 00:19:27,154
the people who lived there. Bro. They have

538
00:19:27,154 --> 00:19:29,715
on based on them again not like in

539
00:19:29,715 --> 00:19:31,715
la. That's another thing. Like, there's a lot

540
00:19:31,715 --> 00:19:34,035
of dudes online. That have never set foot

541
00:19:34,035 --> 00:19:36,543
in Los Angeles. And they have like liz

542
00:19:36,918 --> 00:19:39,941
off towards black L people. It's the... I'm

543
00:19:39,941 --> 00:19:42,183
telling you is the dating thing at... I

544
00:19:42,183 --> 00:19:44,752
think a lot of it because playing deleted

545
00:19:45,127 --> 00:19:47,753
game thing too. Like it's something about too.

546
00:19:48,071 --> 00:19:50,311
They just feel like... I would never let

547
00:19:50,311 --> 00:19:52,296
nobody tell me what had I can't wear.

548
00:19:52,455 --> 00:19:54,598
Like, they... It's like a... They wanna prove

549
00:19:54,598 --> 00:19:56,900
that they're tougher. I don't is weird, bro.

550
00:19:57,234 --> 00:19:59,228
But but this the thing no. We don't.

551
00:19:59,547 --> 00:20:01,062
About we don't people on the West Coast,

552
00:20:01,222 --> 00:20:03,455
we don't trip about day politics, whether it's

553
00:20:03,694 --> 00:20:06,008
Florida, Miami with the Z town and autumn

554
00:20:06,008 --> 00:20:08,727
them dues or but Houston in Dallas Chicago.

555
00:20:08,886 --> 00:20:10,316
You know, but you never hear Chicago need

556
00:20:10,316 --> 00:20:12,936
to talk about La. But right. Triple name

557
00:20:12,936 --> 00:20:15,160
politics of what, and I I noticed this,

558
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:16,590
and I know you saw this 2 at

559
00:20:16,684 --> 00:20:18,912
After the kendrick Lamar, pop out a lot.

560
00:20:19,150 --> 00:20:20,662
During the pop out. And I wanted to

561
00:20:20,662 --> 00:20:22,253
get you... Because I don't think you came

562
00:20:22,253 --> 00:20:24,003
on when we talked about the I don't

563
00:20:24,003 --> 00:20:25,196
think we've talked about the pop out at

564
00:20:25,196 --> 00:20:26,888
all. After don't talk about the pop out.

565
00:20:27,048 --> 00:20:30,004
We talk about drink. Well, yeah. Pop out

566
00:20:30,004 --> 00:20:32,081
happens. Of course, he got meet the books

567
00:20:32,081 --> 00:20:34,570
which is Jay worthy and hit AJ3 and

568
00:20:34,730 --> 00:20:36,004
you know what Saying they all blood. You

569
00:20:36,004 --> 00:20:37,199
know what Saying they out there and they

570
00:20:37,199 --> 00:20:39,351
was rap. You know, they was representing, they

571
00:20:39,351 --> 00:20:41,437
was rap. K? Now, of course, my boy

572
00:20:41,437 --> 00:20:43,907
be, you know, Jeep Rico. He represented too.

573
00:20:44,146 --> 00:20:45,899
You what I'm saying? That... It wasn't much

574
00:20:45,899 --> 00:20:47,253
blew on the stage, but it was enough.

575
00:20:47,492 --> 00:20:49,644
Okay? It was enough But I think a

576
00:20:49,644 --> 00:20:51,810
lot of people that watch that what they

577
00:20:51,810 --> 00:20:54,122
can't understand is, why is it that on

578
00:20:54,122 --> 00:20:57,390
the West Coast and specifically La that people

579
00:20:57,390 --> 00:20:59,397
in La don't wanna be like no else.

580
00:20:59,555 --> 00:21:01,698
They got their own politics. They got their

581
00:21:01,698 --> 00:21:03,681
own thing. They own music that they like,

582
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,506
and we don't care if you like it

583
00:21:05,586 --> 00:21:07,355
Or. I think that really what it boils

584
00:21:07,355 --> 00:21:08,954
down to because in this day in age

585
00:21:08,954 --> 00:21:10,315
when it comes to hip hop when it

586
00:21:10,315 --> 00:21:12,794
comes to culture, fashion. Everybody dresses a life.

587
00:21:12,954 --> 00:21:15,046
You saying I told somebody that said, you

588
00:21:15,046 --> 00:21:16,562
could come across the dude in La with

589
00:21:16,722 --> 00:21:19,355
Van zone and some fucking looking like a

590
00:21:19,355 --> 00:21:21,524
skater be a full fledged gang bang. You

591
00:21:21,524 --> 00:21:23,595
know what I'm saying? You gang bang ain't

592
00:21:23,595 --> 00:21:25,587
gotta do wearing chuck and dick suits and...

593
00:21:25,746 --> 00:21:26,861
No. I they didn't just have on van.

594
00:21:27,578 --> 00:21:29,809
Gang bang that this that rise skateboard boards.

595
00:21:29,968 --> 00:21:32,287
Bro? Yes. You Like, it there are full

596
00:21:32,287 --> 00:21:34,906
fledged gang members they're mostly from Long Beach

597
00:21:34,906 --> 00:21:36,890
or Venice. That know how to ride skateboard

598
00:21:36,890 --> 00:21:39,075
boards and do the whole no. Banging

599
00:21:39,454 --> 00:21:41,134
crib. You know what I'm saying? And and

600
00:21:41,134 --> 00:21:42,015
see the thing is,

601
00:21:43,055 --> 00:21:44,654
when you... It's... I think a lot of

602
00:21:44,654 --> 00:21:46,342
it is... And I had to say this,

603
00:21:46,501 --> 00:21:48,249
bro, but I think there's a certain level

604
00:21:48,249 --> 00:21:51,292
of jealousy there that they try to disguise

605
00:21:51,348 --> 00:21:54,812
under fake blacks. Talk. Y'all destroying the community

606
00:21:54,872 --> 00:21:57,268
and then why Y'all don't take that energy

607
00:21:57,268 --> 00:21:59,265
and do this that in the third. Right.

608
00:21:59,505 --> 00:22:01,119
Right. I'm not gonna say all of it

609
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,279
is not sincere. I think some of it

610
00:22:03,279 --> 00:22:04,960
is sincere. But I think a lot of

611
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,960
it has to do with the fact that

612
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:08,880
the people that are saying that are not

613
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,439
a part of the community of people where

614
00:22:11,439 --> 00:22:14,217
they could just instantly get together under 1

615
00:22:14,217 --> 00:22:17,075
purpose and move in the direction of achieving

616
00:22:17,075 --> 00:22:19,631
and protecting that purpose Right. Good bad right

617
00:22:19,631 --> 00:22:22,411
or wrong. Right. Because Sure not gonna here

618
00:22:22,411 --> 00:22:24,874
and say gang bang is good. Right. Right

619
00:22:24,874 --> 00:22:26,780
now. I say this is a reputable that

620
00:22:26,780 --> 00:22:28,622
did it. It's been doing did it. Starting

621
00:22:28,622 --> 00:22:30,923
at 13 years old all the way up

622
00:22:30,923 --> 00:22:32,828
until my late twenties. Yeah Yeah. I've seen

623
00:22:32,828 --> 00:22:34,178
it all. You know what I'm saying? And

624
00:22:34,336 --> 00:22:36,419
I can't I've no... I can't most of

625
00:22:36,419 --> 00:22:38,017
my homeboy boys that are in my aged

626
00:22:38,017 --> 00:22:40,174
bracket or older. They'll tell you, I wish

627
00:22:40,334 --> 00:22:42,411
I wouldn't never did. Never did it. Right.

628
00:22:42,651 --> 00:22:45,141
Right. Right. Well, Not god. I'm not saying

629
00:22:45,141 --> 00:22:47,615
it's a good thing. Right? But take that

630
00:22:47,615 --> 00:22:49,451
part of it out. When you have the

631
00:22:49,451 --> 00:22:52,259
sense of community, the sense of purpose and

632
00:22:52,259 --> 00:22:53,934
a sense you know, a set of principles

633
00:22:53,934 --> 00:22:56,326
that you stand on that everybody unites around.

634
00:22:56,486 --> 00:22:59,118
You po together you... It's it's a family,

635
00:22:59,278 --> 00:23:01,511
and then you look at everybody else's the

636
00:23:01,511 --> 00:23:03,601
outside. A lot of people envy that they

637
00:23:03,601 --> 00:23:05,915
don't have that. Because those other places really...

638
00:23:06,394 --> 00:23:08,229
And and I don't wanna say they don't

639
00:23:08,229 --> 00:23:09,346
have it, but I'm a just go based

640
00:23:09,346 --> 00:23:11,037
on what I've seen. They really don't have

641
00:23:11,037 --> 00:23:12,472
a lot of order in these other cities.

642
00:23:12,712 --> 00:23:14,786
I mean, especially Atlanta where there... Is it

643
00:23:14,786 --> 00:23:17,896
seems like anything goes. This is random groups

644
00:23:17,896 --> 00:23:20,942
of crews. It's like there. But it's worth

645
00:23:20,942 --> 00:23:22,457
like, you know, when you talk about a

646
00:23:22,457 --> 00:23:24,372
group of, you know, 345

647
00:23:24,372 --> 00:23:26,206
hundred nigga. Yeah. You know what I'm saying?

648
00:23:26,366 --> 00:23:27,801
There's been around for generation.

649
00:23:28,679 --> 00:23:31,964
4 5 generations, that's bigger than just crew

650
00:23:31,964 --> 00:23:33,640
of nigga that's hot for the moment. You

651
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,272
know what I mean? Right. And in Chicago

652
00:23:36,272 --> 00:23:37,150
has that as well.

653
00:23:38,039 --> 00:23:40,660
Why said you'll Chicago on no lake because

654
00:23:40,660 --> 00:23:42,725
they... Not really. Not really. They don't really

655
00:23:42,725 --> 00:23:45,028
they ain't got dang looking at us like

656
00:23:45,028 --> 00:23:46,789
that. No. That's why they could come out

657
00:23:46,789 --> 00:23:48,932
here somebody like dirt to come out here

658
00:23:48,932 --> 00:23:51,391
and move around and get respected because they

659
00:23:51,391 --> 00:23:53,375
kinda understand what it is. Yeah.

660
00:23:54,104 --> 00:23:56,578
And and so I think when you are

661
00:23:56,578 --> 00:23:58,893
somebody who doesn't have that, there is a

662
00:23:58,893 --> 00:24:00,670
level of Envy. Now I'm.

663
00:24:01,367 --> 00:24:03,295
But I I think it's... Is some validity

664
00:24:03,295 --> 00:24:04,886
to what I'm saying because you have these

665
00:24:04,886 --> 00:24:06,876
deals. I'll go to any of these these

666
00:24:06,956 --> 00:24:08,786
La based, gang pages,

667
00:24:09,264 --> 00:24:12,860
Youtube, channels, whatever. Rather it's no jumper, rather

668
00:24:12,860 --> 00:24:13,099
it's...

669
00:24:13,895 --> 00:24:15,486
With some of the other shows on that

670
00:24:15,486 --> 00:24:18,351
street street gangs. No big. Back on fifth,

671
00:24:18,510 --> 00:24:19,329
the community,

672
00:24:19,719 --> 00:24:19,799
yeah.

673
00:24:20,831 --> 00:24:23,294
Right? Kevin mac, any of these videos. And

674
00:24:23,294 --> 00:24:24,883
you'll see these people that are not from

675
00:24:25,042 --> 00:24:27,346
Los Angeles, but they're making up the majority

676
00:24:27,346 --> 00:24:29,507
of the comments. Yeah Yeah. And they're just

677
00:24:29,507 --> 00:24:32,450
all y'all. That's stupid. He said, y'all. Man,

678
00:24:32,927 --> 00:24:35,964
why gotta be 30 people. That. Shut up

679
00:24:35,964 --> 00:24:38,268
nigga. Because you... If you had access to,

680
00:24:38,744 --> 00:24:40,730
a group of 30 or more people had,

681
00:24:40,889 --> 00:24:42,557
they had a chain of command and had

682
00:24:42,557 --> 00:24:44,464
a community. You would do it 2 nigga

683
00:24:44,702 --> 00:24:46,954
Stop. Absolutely. That's understand what I'm saying. Yeah.

684
00:24:47,194 --> 00:24:49,274
And and I think a lot of that

685
00:24:49,274 --> 00:24:52,394
is envy to a certain degree. Is all

686
00:24:52,394 --> 00:24:53,835
of your envy mv No. That's not what

687
00:24:53,914 --> 00:24:55,690
I'm saying. And I and and I'll throw

688
00:24:55,690 --> 00:24:57,690
another example in there. I think that's why

689
00:24:57,690 --> 00:24:58,490
a lot of people,

690
00:24:59,130 --> 00:25:00,890
you hear a lot of people that criticized

691
00:25:00,890 --> 00:25:02,890
like the black church. Yeah. Yeah. I think

692
00:25:02,890 --> 00:25:05,207
it's a... Similar thing because the black church

693
00:25:05,207 --> 00:25:08,061
has their own level of qualification. They move

694
00:25:08,061 --> 00:25:10,203
together as a community They do they own

695
00:25:10,203 --> 00:25:12,608
thing. They have a level little organization. Now

696
00:25:12,608 --> 00:25:14,286
you don't have to agree with the religion

697
00:25:14,286 --> 00:25:16,283
or the practices or whatever... But, I think

698
00:25:16,283 --> 00:25:18,681
a lot of the criticism comes from people

699
00:25:18,681 --> 00:25:20,370
who can't do that Yeah. Yeah.

700
00:25:21,165 --> 00:25:23,312
For or there's people that feel like they

701
00:25:23,312 --> 00:25:25,697
got dead wrong in the church. So then

702
00:25:25,697 --> 00:25:28,578
they just became totally anti. I know somebody

703
00:25:28,578 --> 00:25:30,256
that And I'm, you know me. I'm a

704
00:25:30,256 --> 00:25:32,653
religious person, but I'm a person. I know

705
00:25:32,653 --> 00:25:34,970
somebody that turn religion because of how they...

706
00:25:35,144 --> 00:25:36,579
Feel like they got did. I'm like, wait

707
00:25:36,579 --> 00:25:37,935
a minute. So this ain't really gotten nothing

708
00:25:37,935 --> 00:25:39,690
to do with the church. This is about

709
00:25:39,690 --> 00:25:41,922
you trying to find your way, but you

710
00:25:41,922 --> 00:25:44,075
don't have to turn against the black church.

711
00:25:44,489 --> 00:25:46,325
You just have to find what you need

712
00:25:46,325 --> 00:25:48,241
to find. Right. But but hear me out

713
00:25:48,241 --> 00:25:50,397
though because I'm not talking about, like, that's

714
00:25:50,397 --> 00:25:52,792
a real thing. Like, people... I know people

715
00:25:52,792 --> 00:25:55,683
personally that have had their whole psych their

716
00:25:55,683 --> 00:25:58,960
whole mind destroyed by yeah. So I'm... I'm

717
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:00,158
gonna lead them out of it for the

718
00:26:00,158 --> 00:26:02,716
moment. I'm talking about the ones who are

719
00:26:02,716 --> 00:26:04,963
the hangers on, like, I'm not... I don't

720
00:26:04,963 --> 00:26:06,793
have to go to church to worship god,

721
00:26:07,031 --> 00:26:09,100
but they keeping an eye on everything the

722
00:26:09,100 --> 00:26:10,929
church is doing and they always got something

723
00:26:10,929 --> 00:26:12,520
to say, but they never wanna ask actually...

724
00:26:12,853 --> 00:26:15,157
Step in and participate and help correct some

725
00:26:15,157 --> 00:26:16,984
of the things that they think that the

726
00:26:16,984 --> 00:26:18,970
church is doing wrong or they don't ever

727
00:26:18,970 --> 00:26:19,470
wanna

728
00:26:19,923 --> 00:26:22,645
take the opportunity to to step up. That's

729
00:26:22,645 --> 00:26:24,320
okay. Cool. You don't think we're doing enough

730
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,271
over here. Let's open up a program to

731
00:26:27,271 --> 00:26:28,627
address that. And why don't you lead it,

732
00:26:28,787 --> 00:26:30,621
brother? They'll be like, no. I'm ain't doing

733
00:26:30,621 --> 00:26:32,788
all that. All all, okay. So we see

734
00:26:32,788 --> 00:26:34,622
what this is really all about. I think

735
00:26:34,622 --> 00:26:36,614
there's a level of... Oh, and you see

736
00:26:36,614 --> 00:26:38,368
it with black f return as well. I

737
00:26:38,368 --> 00:26:39,107
don't throw.

738
00:26:39,974 --> 00:26:41,800
Throw them in there. We get Yeah. They're

739
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,341
organized. They got their own little coal. They

740
00:26:44,341 --> 00:26:46,406
take care of each other. Nigga that ain't

741
00:26:46,406 --> 00:26:48,328
in that. They big go, Okay. We'll throw

742
00:26:48,328 --> 00:26:50,238
y'all some crumbs, but y'all not with us.

743
00:26:50,476 --> 00:26:52,885
We are us. Yeah. There is a level

744
00:26:53,101 --> 00:26:55,249
of, and and I would be honest. A

745
00:26:55,249 --> 00:26:57,335
lot of peoples. Big see that. Oh, y'all.

746
00:26:57,494 --> 00:26:59,965
Y'all only care about yourselves. You ain't you

747
00:26:59,965 --> 00:27:02,436
ain't really for all black people. Nigga they

748
00:27:02,436 --> 00:27:05,084
never said they were. They've never said that

749
00:27:05,084 --> 00:27:06,842
they were for all black people. They are

750
00:27:06,842 --> 00:27:09,399
for themselves, and then they'll throw other black

751
00:27:09,399 --> 00:27:11,237
people some crimes. Right did what I'm saying.

752
00:27:11,397 --> 00:27:12,696
And that's just the

753
00:27:13,235 --> 00:27:15,644
of. Wrong. That's a fan. But that's just...

754
00:27:15,884 --> 00:27:17,798
If you look at life, that is just

755
00:27:17,798 --> 00:27:20,748
the reality of life. Yes. We are tribal

756
00:27:20,748 --> 00:27:23,714
people. Yes. People don't wanna acknowledge it. We

757
00:27:23,714 --> 00:27:25,552
are tribal people bro. I don't know what

758
00:27:25,552 --> 00:27:28,849
it is. No matter how developed we get

759
00:27:28,908 --> 00:27:29,408
socially

760
00:27:29,787 --> 00:27:31,406
tech tech... In terms of technology,

761
00:27:31,785 --> 00:27:33,237
whatever it is at the end of the

762
00:27:33,237 --> 00:27:35,232
day, you could take for a hundred people,

763
00:27:35,392 --> 00:27:36,988
put them in a room, give them all

764
00:27:36,988 --> 00:27:40,260
kinds of resources. They're gonna start dividing themselves

765
00:27:40,260 --> 00:27:41,549
into groups. Absolutely.

766
00:27:42,423 --> 00:27:44,012
Yeah. Absolutely. And, you know, this is the

767
00:27:44,012 --> 00:27:45,919
thing is, like, whenever, you know, I hear

768
00:27:45,919 --> 00:27:47,667
people talk about the economy and all things

769
00:27:47,667 --> 00:27:49,176
and... You know, I know we all do

770
00:27:49,176 --> 00:27:51,424
well. For ourselves. But and when you create

771
00:27:51,424 --> 00:27:53,976
a community, if if td needs some... If

772
00:27:54,135 --> 00:27:56,129
I need some, you need some, we we

773
00:27:56,129 --> 00:27:58,044
have we have each other's back. If Vid

774
00:27:58,044 --> 00:27:59,971
needs something, We got her back. That's Lil

775
00:27:59,971 --> 00:28:01,641
sis. We got her back. If there's just

776
00:28:01,641 --> 00:28:03,549
some random person, I mean, I'll see what

777
00:28:03,708 --> 00:28:05,616
I could do. But if I won't... If

778
00:28:05,696 --> 00:28:06,888
I don't know you like that. You know

779
00:28:06,888 --> 00:28:08,320
what Saying I don't know what you... Because

780
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,646
we're talking about. Human beings. I don't know

781
00:28:10,646 --> 00:28:13,201
what your... Interior motives are. You what Saying?

782
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,116
I I'll support you the best way I

783
00:28:15,116 --> 00:28:17,910
can, but I don't really know you. So,

784
00:28:18,070 --> 00:28:19,519
like and and and this is and this

785
00:28:19,519 --> 00:28:21,749
is going drawn back to the pop out,

786
00:28:21,988 --> 00:28:24,377
it just seems like whenever the West Coast

787
00:28:24,377 --> 00:28:27,220
come out, we have our own thing. And

788
00:28:27,339 --> 00:28:28,700
First of all, you saying that shit wasn't

789
00:28:28,700 --> 00:28:29,980
tight, you lying. You know what I'm saying?

790
00:28:30,299 --> 00:28:32,140
You mad. You lying And it didn't have

791
00:28:32,140 --> 00:28:33,500
nothing to do with Drake. It didn't have

792
00:28:33,500 --> 00:28:35,339
nothing put that beef. It has something to

793
00:28:35,339 --> 00:28:37,749
do with the fact that it's... Time. Look

794
00:28:37,749 --> 00:28:38,942
we've Yeah. And I know a lot of

795
00:28:38,942 --> 00:28:40,295
people don't know these people, but there's a

796
00:28:40,295 --> 00:28:43,000
lot of dudes in the community that are

797
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,910
former gang members, and I ain't talking about,

798
00:28:45,069 --> 00:28:47,942
like, members former gang bang that are trying

799
00:28:47,942 --> 00:28:50,323
to fix the community right now. So for

800
00:28:50,323 --> 00:28:52,625
someone like a Kendrick Lamar to do that

801
00:28:52,625 --> 00:28:55,183
that just pushes it even more know... Are

802
00:28:55,183 --> 00:28:57,337
people still gonna represent day flag. Yeah. Are

803
00:28:57,337 --> 00:28:59,411
people are still don't represent their community? They

804
00:28:59,411 --> 00:29:02,137
should. I hope so yeah Don't it. You

805
00:29:02,137 --> 00:29:04,127
said even if you don't gain bank, if

806
00:29:04,127 --> 00:29:06,117
you from the Chris district, 1 motherfuckers from

807
00:29:06,117 --> 00:29:07,254
the Chris district

808
00:29:07,629 --> 00:29:09,699
represent that shit. They represent the shop... Even

809
00:29:09,699 --> 00:29:11,131
if you don't bang. Yeah.

810
00:29:11,782 --> 00:29:14,240
You proudly say I am from the District

811
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,563
after Los Angeles. If you from the Baldwin

812
00:29:16,618 --> 00:29:19,648
villages area people will boldly and out said.

813
00:29:19,887 --> 00:29:20,705
You from En.

814
00:29:21,082 --> 00:29:22,857
Ing wood. Wherever. Ing

815
00:29:23,313 --> 00:29:25,544
represents. Okay? And that's the way... And there's

816
00:29:25,544 --> 00:29:27,775
nothing wrong with that. The only thing that's

817
00:29:27,775 --> 00:29:29,700
wrong is when the violence. Comes in that.

818
00:29:29,938 --> 00:29:32,082
So when people start talking about, y'all should

819
00:29:32,082 --> 00:29:33,670
be. Y'all should... You don't even know what

820
00:29:33,670 --> 00:29:35,417
they're doing. So when you try to... When

821
00:29:35,417 --> 00:29:37,403
you see what you saw on Tv and

822
00:29:37,403 --> 00:29:39,989
you immediately link comes that with violence, I

823
00:29:40,048 --> 00:29:42,366
understand why you did, but I also understand

824
00:29:42,366 --> 00:29:43,724
that I know you know that. You know

825
00:29:43,724 --> 00:29:45,243
what I'm? Because you know that this was

826
00:29:45,243 --> 00:29:47,480
for peace because Kendrick even said so that

827
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,885
it was for peace. So it bothers you.

828
00:29:50,123 --> 00:29:51,792
And I think another part of it is

829
00:29:51,792 --> 00:29:53,064
because what we said before, you know what

830
00:29:53,143 --> 00:29:54,732
Saying? When people come to La, they have

831
00:29:54,732 --> 00:29:57,275
this idea of what Beverly Hills in La.

832
00:29:57,449 --> 00:29:58,644
A lot of people feel like they should

833
00:29:58,644 --> 00:30:00,238
be able to come to La and it

834
00:30:00,238 --> 00:30:02,309
should be there Oyster. But ain't normal city

835
00:30:02,309 --> 00:30:04,222
like that. You can't go to york city

836
00:30:04,222 --> 00:30:06,549
like that. And just move around and do

837
00:30:06,549 --> 00:30:09,022
everything you all new and... Man. You gonna

838
00:30:09,022 --> 00:30:11,335
get your last nowhere You going more Puerto

839
00:30:11,414 --> 00:30:13,807
Rican town in the Bronx or the American

00:30:13,807 --> 00:30:15,900
town or whatever. They will run your black

841
00:30:15,900 --> 00:30:18,619
ass there? Yeah. There. You run 3 to

842
00:30:18,779 --> 00:30:20,940
New York City. Are you serious? Like I

843
00:30:20,940 --> 00:30:22,299
say, like, when I go to, you know

844
00:30:22,299 --> 00:30:23,989
those... Week made you talk about this all

845
00:30:23,989 --> 00:30:25,662
the time. When we watch old movies. We're

846
00:30:25,662 --> 00:30:26,777
back in the day when you watch them

847
00:30:26,777 --> 00:30:28,608
old movies in New York and a steam

848
00:30:28,608 --> 00:30:30,781
coming from the manual. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah

849
00:30:31,968 --> 00:30:33,080
Be like, man, When I when I go

850
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:34,986
to new york it better be just like

851
00:30:34,986 --> 00:30:36,971
that. You know? I want the racist this

852
00:30:36,971 --> 00:30:38,956
top nigga. I want rat. I want it

853
00:30:38,956 --> 00:30:40,941
all, but I also noticed politics in that.

854
00:30:41,100 --> 00:30:42,942
I'd correct. Know I'm saying? There's certain areas

855
00:30:43,021 --> 00:30:44,451
I ain't got no bin been, but I

856
00:30:44,451 --> 00:30:46,279
know that about La too. So when it

857
00:30:46,279 --> 00:30:48,027
comes to the whole, you can't wear no

858
00:30:48,027 --> 00:30:48,106
hat.

859
00:30:48,837 --> 00:30:49,953
Other the kind of stuff, Nigga a look.

You do what you want. Do what you

861
00:30:51,307 --> 00:30:52,980
want. And in my times out of tea

862
00:30:52,980 --> 00:30:55,131

868
00:31:05,615 --> 00:31:06,015
It's not like,

869
00:31:06,734 --> 00:31:09,214

00:31:11,993 --> 00:31:14,137
trees and shit. Right. It doesn't climbing out

873
00:31:14,137 --> 00:31:14,795
of manhole.

874
00:31:15,184 --> 00:31:17,264
If you're not from out here, you have

875
00:31:17,264 --> 00:31:19,825
to actually go looking for that. Yeah. The

876
00:31:19,825 --> 00:31:21,585
go it's like School boy queue. I wish

877
00:31:21,664 --> 00:31:23,504
I could play that audio where he said,

878
00:31:23,758 --> 00:31:25,186
he... And he said he was saying he

879
00:31:25,186 --> 00:31:26,693
make a sense. Just like, Nigga, why do

880
00:31:26,693 --> 00:31:28,358
you wanna come out here and even go

881
00:31:28,358 --> 00:31:30,285
over there. Don't the.

882
00:31:31,213 --> 00:31:33,304
Hey. Why do you wanna go over there?

883
00:31:33,464 --> 00:31:35,144
Go box spots.

884
00:31:36,105 --> 00:31:38,444
Get something eat, get your little woman

885
00:31:38,825 --> 00:31:41,239
or a man or whatever you're doing? Kick

886
00:31:41,239 --> 00:31:43,477
back, smoke your weed or whatever you're in

887
00:31:43,477 --> 00:31:44,915
into and get the hell out of here.

888
00:31:45,075 --> 00:31:47,472
Like, I don't understand. That's what I don't

889
00:31:47,472 --> 00:31:48,991
understand because when you go to these areas,

890
00:31:49,231 --> 00:31:52,190
there's nothing there. Okay? Yeah Why do you

891
00:31:52,190 --> 00:31:54,413
wanna go to the Nick gardens? Really? Real.

892
00:31:54,651 --> 00:31:56,795
Why? Well I can see that because Nigga

893
00:31:56,795 --> 00:31:57,430
just wanna go to...

894
00:31:58,159 --> 00:31:59,438
You know, if you wanna do the food

00:31:59,438 --> 00:32:01,276
spots. You definitely me 1 go hawkins Yeah.

896
00:32:01,915 --> 00:32:04,153
Yes. What's outside of that. Well, no. Let

897
00:32:04,153 --> 00:32:05,591
me let me let me let me step

898
00:32:05,591 --> 00:32:07,678
back for... Just a sec. Right? Because there

899
00:32:07,678 --> 00:32:10,060
is a certain level of curiosity. There is

900
00:32:10,060 --> 00:32:11,806
there we all have that. You know what

901
00:32:12,044 --> 00:32:14,267
Saying? No. Not for me. I don't wanna

902
00:32:14,267 --> 00:32:16,775
go. To the hood in Miami

903
00:32:17,152 --> 00:32:19,306
or... No. No. Wherever real. I don't wanna

904
00:32:19,306 --> 00:32:21,299
go to those places. No. The nigga is

905
00:32:21,299 --> 00:32:23,692
hungry out there. They show it. That's enough

906
00:32:23,692 --> 00:32:25,858
different type of hunger. Yeah. They'll you'll get

907
00:32:25,937 --> 00:32:27,767
Got out there. Oh, I've been there. That's

908
00:32:27,767 --> 00:32:29,358
a different type of hunger out there. Right.

909
00:32:29,518 --> 00:32:31,268
And you'll never they'll never see you again.

910
00:32:31,586 --> 00:32:33,677
Like, see, and I I went to the

911
00:32:33,677 --> 00:32:36,154
in Miami accident. Yeah. Luckily, it was during

912
00:32:36,154 --> 00:32:37,992
the daytime. But I'm... I tell him on

913
00:32:37,992 --> 00:32:39,590
fucking a minute. I'm a scary Nigga Don't

914
00:32:39,590 --> 00:32:41,365
care. You don't what saying? Right now that's

915
00:32:41,365 --> 00:32:42,884
not saying like I'm a coward, it's just

916
00:32:42,884 --> 00:32:44,404
that I'm always got my head on the

917
00:32:44,404 --> 00:32:45,765
wi. You know what saying? When I went

918
00:32:45,765 --> 00:32:46,325
to Miami.

919
00:32:47,218 --> 00:32:47,932
I was looking for...

920
00:32:48,726 --> 00:32:50,154
We was looking for black people because you

921
00:32:50,154 --> 00:32:51,504
don't know the dynamics when you get there.

922
00:32:51,742 --> 00:32:53,329
So when I cut there, I didn't see

923
00:32:53,329 --> 00:32:55,653
no black people. Correct. So I asked a

924
00:32:55,653 --> 00:32:57,731
brother. I said, man, where are black people

925
00:32:57,731 --> 00:32:59,089
at. And he told me where to go,

926
00:32:59,249 --> 00:33:01,646
and I ended up in Liberty City. Looks

927
00:33:01,646 --> 00:33:02,924
like he was trying to line you up.

928
00:33:03,419 --> 00:33:05,357
But I made sure it was during the

929
00:33:05,736 --> 00:33:08,532
daytime. It was early church crowd. Church crowd

930
00:33:08,532 --> 00:33:10,941
at the. You don't saying? Okay. Yep we

931
00:33:10,941 --> 00:33:12,446
went back to the hotel. You don't saying,

932
00:33:12,526 --> 00:33:14,190
but I'm not about to... Even even though

933
00:33:14,269 --> 00:33:15,616
I know La that like the back of

934
00:33:15,616 --> 00:33:17,809
my damn damn. I'm not going into the

935
00:33:17,929 --> 00:33:19,596
they come on, But for what? Right? You

936
00:33:19,596 --> 00:33:22,138
know right like Yeah. Bros. Just like, okay.

937
00:33:22,297 --> 00:33:23,726
Let's let's let's take on let's stay on

938
00:33:23,726 --> 00:33:24,521
the pop out. Right?

939
00:33:25,394 --> 00:33:27,062
A lot of the early criticism that our

940
00:33:27,062 --> 00:33:29,940
software. People outside... With both within the community

941
00:33:29,940 --> 00:33:31,849
and outside of the community. But let's go

942
00:33:31,849 --> 00:33:33,917
with outside first, and then we'll get to

943
00:33:33,917 --> 00:33:35,681
some of these should that people were saying

944
00:33:35,681 --> 00:33:37,351
that are actually firm out this way. A

945
00:33:37,351 --> 00:33:39,020
lot of criticism in son and, you know,

946
00:33:39,179 --> 00:33:41,961
that clown, whose initial start with ACW.

947
00:33:42,199 --> 00:33:42,835
Yeah. Yeah.

948
00:33:43,804 --> 00:33:45,799
Start talking mouth. Nigga is just gonna go

949
00:33:45,799 --> 00:33:48,113
back to shooting up after the thing. That's

950
00:33:48,113 --> 00:33:50,427
not the point. Right why saying that this

951
00:33:50,427 --> 00:33:51,246
was Jesus

952
00:33:52,193 --> 00:33:54,258
you know, coming to earth and unite and

953
00:33:54,258 --> 00:33:56,799
everybody and ruling. Nobody said that. It's a

954
00:33:56,799 --> 00:33:59,499
moment in time. Where, hopefully, we can build

955
00:33:59,499 --> 00:34:01,761
off of something. Yeah. It's not gonna happen

956
00:34:01,977 --> 00:34:04,283
overnight, bro? And everybody's not gonna be on

957
00:34:04,283 --> 00:34:06,191
the same page. It's humans.

958
00:34:06,906 --> 00:34:08,815
Everybody ain't gonna be with it. The ain't

959
00:34:08,815 --> 00:34:11,878
gonna be able please everybody. Ram. And so

960
00:34:12,178 --> 00:34:14,255
everybody's talking about all, See Nigga had a

961
00:34:14,255 --> 00:34:16,493
shooting a couple weeks after the pop out.

962
00:34:16,653 --> 00:34:19,370
What happened? Motherfucker is shootings in all these

963
00:34:19,370 --> 00:34:21,934
other cities. Every day. Every... That was the

964
00:34:21,934 --> 00:34:24,400
boy named Julio Julio? He just got mer

965
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,173
and the dude went and shot a video

966
00:34:26,230 --> 00:34:28,233
or something at the place where the brother

967
00:34:28,233 --> 00:34:30,541
got killed? Yeah. And that's in Jacksonville. So

968
00:34:30,541 --> 00:34:32,609
what are y'all talking about? This is day

969
00:34:32,609 --> 00:34:35,113
and all these other places Texas. The Whether

970
00:34:35,326 --> 00:34:38,417
Houston Dallas or Fort Worth. Yep. Right? Chicago,

971
00:34:38,576 --> 00:34:40,715
of course, that's gets all the news play.

972
00:34:40,953 --> 00:34:43,985
Saint. Louis is probably even worse than Chicago,

973
00:34:44,143 --> 00:34:45,971
but people just don't talk about but S

974
00:34:45,971 --> 00:34:48,115
saint Louis is off the chain. Yes. Right?

975
00:34:48,354 --> 00:34:50,594
I just saw a video of dudes in

976
00:34:50,675 --> 00:34:53,655
Brooklyn or wherever that was, full fledged shooting

977
00:34:53,715 --> 00:34:55,795
at a barber shop because he saw 1

978
00:34:55,795 --> 00:34:58,034
person that he wanted to get hiding behind

979
00:34:58,034 --> 00:34:58,730
a car

980
00:34:59,088 --> 00:35:01,339
aired out the whole barber shop and killed

981
00:35:01,396 --> 00:35:03,068
everybody except for the person he was trying

982
00:35:03,068 --> 00:35:05,217
to get. Rem Rem My son is in

983
00:35:05,217 --> 00:35:06,252
prison right now for

984
00:35:07,143 --> 00:35:10,170
contract kill supposedly killed somebody. There's another little

985
00:35:10,170 --> 00:35:12,560
young rapper from Brooklyn that got that murdered

986
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,644
somebody in a barber shop the dude come

987
00:35:14,644 --> 00:35:16,075
out of Barber shop and he just didn't

988
00:35:16,075 --> 00:35:17,109
like the way he looked at. And he

989
00:35:17,109 --> 00:35:18,699
was made what you're looking at. And dude

990
00:35:18,699 --> 00:35:20,368
stepped up the barber shop and then he

991
00:35:20,368 --> 00:35:21,695
went to the barber shop... I mean, so

992
00:35:21,814 --> 00:35:24,204
I mean, these things happen because you can't

993
00:35:24,204 --> 00:35:26,435
tell everybody what to do. It but it

994
00:35:26,435 --> 00:35:28,268
feels like when it comes to the West

995
00:35:28,268 --> 00:35:30,360
coast, all of us. Sutton everybody wanna be

996
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,280
out to be Wells Barnett and most motherfucking

997
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,559
are looking junior. And that's because when you

998
00:35:35,559 --> 00:35:38,391
stick it to rap in music. Los Angeles

999
00:35:38,685 --> 00:35:41,146
is what the second and third largest market

1000
00:35:41,146 --> 00:35:43,131
in the world. Probably the second. Yeah. So

1001
00:35:43,131 --> 00:35:44,958
really... See, when you have a artist from

1002
00:35:44,958 --> 00:35:47,276
the West coast that really make some shape.

1003
00:35:47,515 --> 00:35:50,080
It's gonna cause air. It's gonna cause way

1004
00:35:50,375 --> 00:35:52,361
everywhere. Just because the market is so big.

1005
00:35:52,695 --> 00:35:54,614
So when people say oh, he's that's just

1006
00:35:54,614 --> 00:35:57,414
cracking at La. No. That's not true. That's

1007
00:35:57,414 --> 00:35:59,675
not true at all. But if something...

1008
00:36:00,054 --> 00:36:02,148
Because honestly, it's a lot of act. In

1009
00:36:02,228 --> 00:36:05,015
La that only really crack in la. They

1010
00:36:05,015 --> 00:36:07,563
don't... They don't reverb all through the whole

1011
00:36:07,563 --> 00:36:09,633
region because each region has the own little

1012
00:36:09,633 --> 00:36:11,394
shit going on. Having to do that was

1013
00:36:11,394 --> 00:36:12,979
at the pop only cracked on the West

1014
00:36:13,137 --> 00:36:15,435
Coast. Right. But once you get that 1

1015
00:36:15,435 --> 00:36:18,865
that really just ba his The... His head

1016
00:36:18,865 --> 00:36:20,939
that that drum or that bell in the

1017
00:36:20,939 --> 00:36:22,932
in the in the sound waves travel all

1018
00:36:22,932 --> 00:36:24,788
the way through the region and the whole

1019
00:36:24,847 --> 00:36:27,655
region react? That causes a reaction and all

1020
00:36:27,655 --> 00:36:29,894
over the place. The kendrick lamar drops a

1021
00:36:29,894 --> 00:36:32,534
reverse. Right. Everything drops. Exactly. And it started

1022
00:36:32,534 --> 00:36:34,785
with like that. Yeah. Let's notch If not

1023
00:36:34,785 --> 00:36:36,295
like us or none of that ever came,

1024
00:36:36,453 --> 00:36:38,519
out like that would probably still be in

1025
00:36:38,519 --> 00:36:40,425
the top 5 on in on the billboard.

1026
00:36:40,584 --> 00:36:42,093
Right It's still in the top... It still

1027
00:36:42,093 --> 00:36:44,412
is. Yeah. On billboard right now. And it

1028
00:36:44,412 --> 00:36:46,399
came out with. 4 months ago? In March.

1029
00:36:46,876 --> 00:36:48,148
All March or whatever.

1030
00:36:49,896 --> 00:36:52,696
And it's still making noise. So... But if

1031
00:36:52,696 --> 00:36:55,009
and if this beef never happened, if drake

1032
00:36:55,009 --> 00:36:57,482
had never responded, like that, would probably still

1033
00:36:57,482 --> 00:36:59,555
be getting that gang to play because people

1034
00:36:59,555 --> 00:37:01,310
know that. Like they know not like us.

1035
00:37:01,564 --> 00:37:04,116
Yep. All over the country Yep. Right? So

1036
00:37:04,116 --> 00:37:06,907
once somebody from the West really really, first

1037
00:37:06,907 --> 00:37:09,061
of all, when they make a sound wave

1038
00:37:09,061 --> 00:37:11,309
throughout the whole region I'm talking about. From

1039
00:37:11,389 --> 00:37:14,605
San Diego through La through Norway way California

1040
00:37:14,744 --> 00:37:17,161
all the way up to Seattle, to Port

1041
00:37:17,380 --> 00:37:19,949
All that boom. Once that happens, it goes

1042
00:37:19,949 --> 00:37:21,942
to Vegas. It goes to Arizona. It goes

1043
00:37:21,942 --> 00:37:23,856
to, Mexico. It goes. And next do you

1044
00:37:23,856 --> 00:37:26,010
know, all over the country is huge. Right?

1045
00:37:26,249 --> 00:37:28,179
Yeah. Yeah. Not like us. You could look

1046
00:37:28,179 --> 00:37:30,173
it up on Apple Music last week, I

1047
00:37:30,173 --> 00:37:31,849
don't know what it's doing this week. But

1048
00:37:31,849 --> 00:37:33,764
last week, it was literally number 1 in

1049
00:37:33,844 --> 00:37:36,192
Los Angeles. Number 1. And Toronto,

1050
00:37:36,963 --> 00:37:39,425
1 in New York, Number 1 in Atlanta,

1051
00:37:39,663 --> 00:37:41,036
Number 1 in Miami,

1052
00:37:41,410 --> 00:37:44,189
Number 1 in Albuquerque. You don't saying, like

1053
00:37:44,189 --> 00:37:46,276
maybe reached Good think of that song was

1054
00:37:46,276 --> 00:37:49,547
number 1. So obviously, something about it struck

1055
00:37:49,547 --> 00:37:51,541
a chord with people. And as my motherfuckers

1056
00:37:51,541 --> 00:37:53,706
said don't like that. Yeah. Why. Yeah. Why

1057
00:37:53,706 --> 00:37:55,775
are they. No. I think I think a

1058
00:37:55,775 --> 00:37:57,764
lot of times and we saw this with

1059
00:37:57,764 --> 00:38:00,072
other West Coast artists. What especially came to

1060
00:38:00,072 --> 00:38:02,155
e 40 Oh my god. Oh, they really

1061
00:38:02,155 --> 00:38:04,225

00:38:04,225 --> 00:38:05,420

1063
00:38:05,420 --> 00:38:06,853
it is well, if you had so much

1064
00:38:06,853 --> 00:38:08,763

1066
00:38:11,005 --> 00:38:12,833
that kind of stuff before e 40. Right.

1067
00:38:12,992 --> 00:38:14,662
Now we might have heard those words because

1068
00:38:14,662 --> 00:38:16,331
we live out here. But but ain't even

1069
00:38:16,331 --> 00:38:18,652
from there. No. You know what that? E

1070
00:38:18,652 --> 00:38:21,698

1071
00:38:22,152 --> 00:38:24,460
buddy I'm player hate, you never heard that

1072
00:38:24,460 --> 00:38:26,622
term until you heard E 40. Said. Now,

1073
00:38:26,782 --> 00:38:28,213
you might not have heard 40 he said

1074
00:38:28,213 --> 00:38:30,282
but somebody else did, and they started saying

1075
00:38:30,282 --> 00:38:31,872
it, and now you're saying it and that

1076
00:38:31,872 --> 00:38:33,958
word been in the Lexicon said since the

1077
00:38:33,958 --> 00:38:36,751
early nineties, maybe late eighties. Early nineties. Man,

1078
00:38:36,911 --> 00:38:40,422
it's a whole heap of slang that heat

1079
00:38:40,422 --> 00:38:43,405
is responsible for that that region is responsible

1080
00:38:43,461 --> 00:38:45,845
for. Yeah. Right. And and and and it's

1081
00:38:45,845 --> 00:38:47,752
and it's that region, the Bay area Mag

1082
00:38:47,752 --> 00:38:49,835
dr Rich for you know, all of that.

1083
00:38:49,994 --> 00:38:51,983
That's way different from la a. That whole

1084
00:38:51,983 --> 00:38:54,610
mentality you know what Sure. Yeah. So, I

1085
00:38:54,610 --> 00:38:56,042
think, you know, like we're talking about the

1086
00:38:56,042 --> 00:38:58,775
pop out, nobody said that all the violence

1087
00:38:58,775 --> 00:39:01,494
was gonna stop in La because Kendrick did

1088
00:39:01,494 --> 00:39:04,214
something for peace. But what doing is is

1089
00:39:04,214 --> 00:39:05,974
part. And that's all we could ask for.

1090
00:39:06,550 --> 00:39:07,989
You asked for people to do their park.

1091
00:39:08,230 --> 00:39:09,910
You look, you got people like, Kendrick doing

1092
00:39:09,910 --> 00:39:11,269
his part, but then you got people with

1093
00:39:11,269 --> 00:39:12,869
boots on the ground, whether you agree with

1094
00:39:12,869 --> 00:39:14,710
him or not, Big you, and what he

1095
00:39:14,710 --> 00:39:17,602
does. Skip townsend, and what he does, all

1096
00:39:17,602 --> 00:39:20,079
of the channels on Youtube are these older

1097
00:39:20,079 --> 00:39:21,917
dudes that make video they're doing the history

1098
00:39:21,917 --> 00:39:24,648
of gangs. They always preach peace. Yep. You

1099
00:39:24,648 --> 00:39:26,164
know what I'm saying? Every link single 1

1100
00:39:26,164 --> 00:39:27,840
of the blood side and the curb side.

1101
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,995
They are preaching peace in La. And I

1102
00:39:29,995 --> 00:39:32,483
saw a really good conversation last week. It

1103
00:39:32,483 --> 00:39:34,072
was on Kevin mac was 1 of his

1104
00:39:34,072 --> 00:39:35,503
homeboy boys and he was talking about what

1105
00:39:35,503 --> 00:39:37,172
is la on b in 10 years. Mh.

1106
00:39:37,251 --> 00:39:38,840
And because he's he said that, you know,

1107
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,589
he grew up over on split 6 third

1108
00:39:40,748 --> 00:39:42,510
Brian hurts? And he was talking about how

1109
00:39:42,510 --> 00:39:44,731
now you see a lot of different looking

1110
00:39:44,731 --> 00:39:46,477
people there. You know what I'm saying? And

1111
00:39:46,477 --> 00:39:48,381
he was wondering what is la going look

1112
00:39:48,381 --> 00:39:49,987
like... In 10 years and plus what the

1113
00:39:49,987 --> 00:39:51,739
cost of living. You know mean just had

1114
00:39:51,739 --> 00:39:53,330
a conversation about that time my cost of

1115
00:39:53,330 --> 00:39:55,639
living is ridiculous. Yeah. For sure. And it's

1116
00:39:55,639 --> 00:39:57,469
to the point was Mexicans can't even afford

1117
00:39:57,469 --> 00:39:57,867
it. Yeah.

1118
00:39:58,519 --> 00:40:00,119
How is this gonna look in 10 years?

1119
00:40:00,359 --> 00:40:00,859
Is

1120
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,239
bifurcation gonna be the all in b all?

1121
00:40:03,559 --> 00:40:04,760
Is it gonna be to the point worth?

1122
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:07,095
Even why people can't afford it? Well, it's

1123
00:40:07,175 --> 00:40:09,095
I think it's at that point. Honestly. It's

1124
00:40:09,095 --> 00:40:11,255
at that point? Because what I'm starting to

1125
00:40:11,255 --> 00:40:13,575
see now. They build Na these damn townhouse

1126
00:40:13,575 --> 00:40:16,616
houses and and luxury apartments in condos. They

1127
00:40:16,616 --> 00:40:19,416
can't... They have a thousand vacancies. Yeah. Nobody

1128
00:40:19,550 --> 00:40:20,605
here can afford

1129
00:40:21,374 --> 00:40:23,014
to be making... They want you to make

1130
00:40:23,134 --> 00:40:24,881
3 and 4 times the rent in the

1131
00:40:24,881 --> 00:40:26,867
rent is 3000 dollars. I would say the

1132
00:40:26,867 --> 00:40:28,932
rent is 4300 a month Yeah. Like, nigga,

1133
00:40:29,092 --> 00:40:30,283
what what do you what do you think

1134
00:40:30,283 --> 00:40:32,286
people are out here doing? Do you really

1135
00:40:32,286 --> 00:40:34,756
think you can make a 500 unit luxury

1136
00:40:34,756 --> 00:40:37,625
apartment complex and make 50 at these motherfuckers

1137
00:40:37,625 --> 00:40:39,552
and put them all within... You know, 2

1138
00:40:39,552 --> 00:40:41,626
square miles of each other and in a?

1139
00:40:41,945 --> 00:40:44,018
Big is moving there. Yeah. Where all the

1140
00:40:44,018 --> 00:40:46,172
jobs that are supporting people making these lot...

1141
00:40:46,411 --> 00:40:48,166
Making all this money that can afford to

1142
00:40:48,166 --> 00:40:50,253
live in these place. Right. Right. Making the

1143
00:40:50,253 --> 00:40:52,882
rent higher than you're making it enough, now

1144
00:40:52,882 --> 00:40:55,034
it ain't. Because the rent and the mortgage

1145
00:40:55,034 --> 00:40:56,902
is damn near your you know, 3

1146
00:40:57,436 --> 00:40:59,345
working situation is a whole different thing because

1147
00:40:59,345 --> 00:41:00,857
if you put in a a guy he

1148
00:41:00,857 --> 00:41:02,527
just passed away. He lives a block from

1149
00:41:02,527 --> 00:41:04,618
my house. Old older gentleman. I should chopped

1150
00:41:04,618 --> 00:41:06,296
it up with him all time, and he'd

1151
00:41:06,296 --> 00:41:07,734
be living in his house for about 60

1152
00:41:07,734 --> 00:41:10,292
years. And he passed away. His kids put

1153
00:41:10,292 --> 00:41:11,890
the house on the market that was sold

1154
00:41:11,890 --> 00:41:13,974
in 2 weeks. Gone. And and the thing

1155
00:41:13,974 --> 00:41:16,518
is for someone working class like me, Ut,

1156
00:41:16,756 --> 00:41:18,028
if we wanted to put a bid and

1157
00:41:18,028 --> 00:41:19,936
somebody gonna come in with cash. Yep. So

1158
00:41:19,936 --> 00:41:21,367
then that now you're out of the housing

1159
00:41:21,367 --> 00:41:23,211
market. So how are you supposed to survive

1160
00:41:23,211 --> 00:41:24,643
on the West Coast or in New York

1161
00:41:24,723 --> 00:41:26,393
City? You know what Saying everybody don't wanna

1162
00:41:26,393 --> 00:41:28,382
live in Houston? Everybody don't wanna let hell

1163
00:41:28,382 --> 00:41:30,292
that Houston is becoming una unacceptable So it

1164
00:41:30,292 --> 00:41:32,531
it's dallas. So everybody don't wanna live in

1165
00:41:33,087 --> 00:41:34,755
chattanooga New to Tennessee. Okay? You know what

1166
00:41:34,834 --> 00:41:36,819
I'm saying? So when when you talk about

1167
00:41:36,819 --> 00:41:38,725
the politics on the West coast the things

1168
00:41:38,725 --> 00:41:40,489
that go on out here, because it's... Same

1169
00:41:40,489 --> 00:41:42,409
thing going on in La is the same

1170
00:41:42,409 --> 00:41:44,809
thing that happened in San Francisco is happening

1171
00:41:44,809 --> 00:41:47,369
in Oakland now. It already happened in Portland,

1172
00:41:47,529 --> 00:41:49,543
and it's already happened in Seattle. Probably happened

1173
00:41:49,543 --> 00:41:51,380
in Seattle before everywhere on West Coast. You

1174
00:41:51,380 --> 00:41:53,159
what Saying? Because that was tech the tech

1175
00:41:53,219 --> 00:41:55,696
industry in Seattle was a huge thing in

1176
00:41:55,696 --> 00:41:56,710
the early 2000

1177
00:41:56,909 --> 00:41:58,903
But when we're talking about the way people

1178
00:41:58,903 --> 00:42:01,535
are living, politics, race and things like that

1179
00:42:01,535 --> 00:42:02,970
as far as living on the West Coast,

1180
00:42:03,050 --> 00:42:04,485
and you're talking about, you know, people like

1181
00:42:04,485 --> 00:42:05,762
to bring in gangs. And all those are

1182
00:42:05,762 --> 00:42:07,133
the kind of stuff. It's like, do you...

1183
00:42:07,292 --> 00:42:09,127
If you've never lived out here. If you've

1184
00:42:09,127 --> 00:42:11,202
never been out here, it will be it'll

1185
00:42:11,202 --> 00:42:13,276
be like me trying to explain to someone

1186
00:42:13,276 --> 00:42:15,525
what the... Projects in Orleans is like, in

1187
00:42:15,525 --> 00:42:16,961
the way they get down. I don't know

1188
00:42:16,961 --> 00:42:18,238
because I don't... You know what I'm saying?

1189
00:42:18,398 --> 00:42:20,552
But they have their own politics. Right? They

1190
00:42:20,552 --> 00:42:22,243
got their own politics. So out here, if

1191
00:42:22,402 --> 00:42:23,598
I wanna move... And you know me, I'm

1192
00:42:23,598 --> 00:42:24,715
trying to move back to la for a

1193
00:42:24,715 --> 00:42:26,389
few years now, but I'm looking at the

1194
00:42:26,389 --> 00:42:27,585
way things is looking and I'm like. In

1195
00:42:27,585 --> 00:42:29,578
this in this in this recession, it's just

1196
00:42:29,578 --> 00:42:31,348
not gonna happen right now. What I'm saying

1197
00:42:31,588 --> 00:42:33,663
It's it's just not. And it's it's difficult,

1198
00:42:33,902 --> 00:42:35,419
but you could used to it after while

1199
00:42:35,419 --> 00:42:36,856
the way things have have been going. I

1200
00:42:36,856 --> 00:42:38,292
have the thing is. You don't wanna get

1201
00:42:38,292 --> 00:42:39,743
used to it because then they'll just keep

1202
00:42:39,743 --> 00:42:41,651
things where they are. Yeah. You know what

1203
00:42:41,731 --> 00:42:42,526
It's funny is,

1204
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,229
I'm thinking about what you're saying about people

1205
00:42:45,229 --> 00:42:46,660
moving out. You're trying to make. People from

1206
00:42:46,739 --> 00:42:48,568
New York, be figuring it out. Well, I'll

1207
00:42:48,568 --> 00:42:50,177
give them next. Like, they from the East

1208
00:42:50,336 --> 00:42:52,809
Coast. They never heard this shit out. They

1209
00:42:52,809 --> 00:42:53,548
used that

1210
00:42:54,244 --> 00:42:56,956
They didn't actually get it out. I seen

1211
00:42:56,956 --> 00:42:58,950
seen a video on Youtube of a guy

1212
00:42:58,950 --> 00:43:00,713
that he was happy that he was able

1213
00:43:00,713 --> 00:43:03,650
to find an apartment for 2500 dollars. This

1214
00:43:03,650 --> 00:43:06,270
apartment was so small. It was followed than

1215
00:43:06,270 --> 00:43:07,382
the 1 that you showed me that was

1216
00:43:07,382 --> 00:43:08,096
in San Pedro.

1217
00:43:08,829 --> 00:43:09,329
Yeah

1218
00:43:09,869 --> 00:43:10,530
But he

1219
00:43:12,030 --> 00:43:14,510
Hey. I will give New Yorkers and East

1220
00:43:14,670 --> 00:43:15,949
Coast residents... I mean,

1221
00:43:16,750 --> 00:43:19,794
East Coast. Transplants this. They figured this it

1222
00:43:19,794 --> 00:43:21,945
out. When they get out here in any

1223
00:43:21,945 --> 00:43:25,233
significant numbers. They they just transformed the area

1224
00:43:25,291 --> 00:43:26,588
into Yeah. New York

1225
00:43:26,978 --> 00:43:29,523
snuck light. Yes. It's like, it's like New

1226
00:43:29,603 --> 00:43:32,306
York West out here. Thank all. Yeah. But

1227
00:43:32,306 --> 00:43:33,579
then on the flip side, there's a lot

1228
00:43:33,579 --> 00:43:35,407
of people from La that moved to New

1229
00:43:35,567 --> 00:43:38,208
York and Atlanta. They'd be figuring that shit

1230
00:43:38,208 --> 00:43:40,199
out. Yeah. Oh yeah, especially in Atlanta. They

1231
00:43:40,199 --> 00:43:41,712
kill. Yeah. I there's some people that from

1232
00:43:41,791 --> 00:43:44,419
La bro that left La when La was

1233
00:43:44,419 --> 00:43:47,450
cracking. Yeah. Like, I'm talking about La was

1234
00:43:47,450 --> 00:43:50,461
cracking from, like, early to mid nineties all

1235
00:43:50,461 --> 00:43:53,092
the way up until about 20... Like 10.

1236
00:43:53,252 --> 00:43:55,560
Yeah. 20 13 is when the wheels kinda

1237
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:57,312
fell all the way off and shit and

1238
00:43:57,312 --> 00:44:00,257
it started kinda going downhill. But the people

1239
00:44:00,257 --> 00:44:03,132
who left around 20... In the in the

1240
00:44:03,132 --> 00:44:05,831
20 tens. They thrive and bro. In Houston

1241
00:44:05,831 --> 00:44:08,944
making it crack. They Atlanta making it cracked.

1242
00:44:09,184 --> 00:44:10,862
Yeah. Know what Saying? That they jumped on

1243
00:44:11,022 --> 00:44:13,819
Atlanta and Houston before the boom. Right. Because

1244
00:44:13,819 --> 00:44:16,616
you people gotta remember, Atlanta wasn't until the

1245
00:44:16,616 --> 00:44:19,929
96 Olympics Atlanta was just Atlanta. It wasn't

1246
00:44:19,989 --> 00:44:22,170
nowhere near what it is today. The nineties

1247
00:44:22,549 --> 00:44:25,029
olympics did a lot. Or too short. Moved

1248
00:44:25,029 --> 00:44:27,120
to Atlanta. In 19 90 13 fan out

1249
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,833
there from. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So and he

1250
00:44:29,833 --> 00:44:31,748
had he had a big hand in in

1251
00:44:31,748 --> 00:44:34,942
developing the Atlanta sound. Yeah. Yeah. Saying people

1252
00:44:34,942 --> 00:44:37,161
don't don't look at the up. But... Because

1253
00:44:37,319 --> 00:44:38,666
I remember... Yeah. I know you probably remember

1254
00:44:38,666 --> 00:44:40,251
this. Remember when a cash first came out.

1255
00:44:40,504 --> 00:44:42,101
And good mob. Like, that was cool. You

1256
00:44:42,101 --> 00:44:44,575
what I'm saying? But man again. Like. That

1257
00:44:44,575 --> 00:44:45,773
new group from the south. You what I'm

1258
00:44:45,773 --> 00:44:47,130
saying there for from Atlanta, but that was

1259
00:44:47,130 --> 00:44:49,205
it. It wasn't no... This is gonna be

1260
00:44:49,205 --> 00:44:51,050
the the the thing of the future. You

1261
00:44:51,050 --> 00:44:52,641
know what Saying?? That time I'm the gang

1262
00:44:52,641 --> 00:44:54,710
was still based around New York and La.

1263
00:44:54,869 --> 00:44:56,872
But you gotta remember, and this but I'll

1264
00:44:56,872 --> 00:44:58,702
tell people all the time when we have

1265
00:44:58,702 --> 00:45:01,327
these conversations. When New York held the crown

1266
00:45:01,327 --> 00:45:03,315
and hip hop, they wasn't sharing with nobody.

1267
00:45:03,649 --> 00:45:06,669
Hell. No They rejected everybody. You did what

1268
00:45:06,748 --> 00:45:09,371
I'm saying? Yeah. The West Coast literally had

1269
00:45:09,371 --> 00:45:11,597
to had to beat the ass and take

1270
00:45:11,597 --> 00:45:14,000
it from them. Yes. Right. And then when

1271
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:15,674
we had the crown. We were sharing it

1272
00:45:15,674 --> 00:45:18,544
with everybody. Both likely. The West Coast, we

1273
00:45:18,544 --> 00:45:20,697
opened up doors from the nigga from the

1274
00:45:20,936 --> 00:45:23,411
Midwest. Yep. I remember bone thugs and harmony

1275
00:45:23,411 --> 00:45:25,871
when they first got big. Yep. They boom

1276
00:45:25,871 --> 00:45:27,536
was the biggest group in the world at

1277
00:45:27,536 --> 00:45:28,806
1. They were the biggest group in the

1278
00:45:28,806 --> 00:45:31,043
world. Yeah. Yeah. Remember that. Like that was

1279
00:45:31,043 --> 00:45:33,663
crazy. Crossroads and all the records they did.

1280
00:45:33,902 --> 00:45:35,093
They were at the level with wool tang.

1281
00:45:35,251 --> 00:45:36,784
The wool tang was 1 in.

1282
00:45:37,157 --> 00:45:39,166
Bro. Yeah it was crazy. Yeah. Was crazy.

1283
00:45:39,326 --> 00:45:40,922
It was a group from the Midwest. I

1284
00:45:40,922 --> 00:45:42,918
think they from Ohio cleveland cleveland with. Yep.

1285
00:45:43,077 --> 00:45:45,153
Yep. And then what that did, was then

1286
00:45:45,153 --> 00:45:47,163
with that fast rap style. In it in

1287
00:45:47,163 --> 00:45:48,998
the mel and all that. That opened up

1288
00:45:48,998 --> 00:45:51,470
the door for that midwest sound to Park

1289
00:45:51,470 --> 00:45:53,703
for Chicago... Yes. Open it up for that

1290
00:45:53,703 --> 00:45:56,415
whole area. So you started receiving more like,

that

1294
00:46:05,684 --> 00:46:08,324
Crucial crucial conflict. Right? Those records pop big

1295
00:46:08,324 --> 00:46:10,484
out here. Yeah. They did. Right? And because

1296
00:46:10,484 --> 00:46:12,085
they pop big out here. They was able

1297
00:46:12,085 --> 00:46:14,093
to pop big everywhere. Yeah. You know what

1298
00:46:14,252 --> 00:46:15,921
I'm saying? The New York was not fucking

1299
00:46:15,921 --> 00:46:18,862

00:46:27,494 --> 00:46:29,175

1305
00:46:29,175 --> 00:46:30,554

He started blowing up with no limit. They

1312
00:46:46,044 --> 00:46:48,038
were doing a lot of collaborations with West

1313
00:46:48,117 --> 00:46:50,605
Coast artists from the South from Southern California

1314
00:46:50,605 --> 00:46:52,519
and Northern, California. So it was like, okay.

1315
00:46:52,679 --> 00:46:54,354
Cool. New York don't wanna mess with nobody.

1316
00:46:54,513 --> 00:46:56,746
Cool. We don't all star programming together. And

1317
00:46:56,746 --> 00:46:58,980
when the west was cracking, we allowed all

1318
00:46:58,980 --> 00:47:01,057

00:47:08,846 --> 00:47:10,672
in the early 2 thousands or whatever. That

1323
00:47:10,672 --> 00:47:12,578

1324
00:47:12,578 --> 00:47:14,007
sign. It might be... That might be 1

1325

1347
00:47:58,845 --> 00:48:02,447
a collaboration between Texas, Louisiana and Cali oh,

1348
00:48:02,606 --> 00:48:03,953

and then, you get tech 9. And tech

1350
00:48:05,539 --> 00:48:07,362
9 from Kansas City. Tech 9 would get

1351
00:48:07,362 --> 00:48:08,630
a reversed. You know what I'm saying? Like,

1352
00:48:08,789 --> 00:48:11,898
the middle plus. Kansas City of places like

1353
00:48:11,898 --> 00:48:13,802
that in connection. That's where Mc drake got

1354
00:48:13,802 --> 00:48:15,389
killed at. Was in in Kansas City. I

1355
00:48:15,389 --> 00:48:17,134
didn't know that too. Yeah. Yeah I never

1356
00:48:17,134 --> 00:48:18,977
really looked to the... To his murder or

1357
00:48:18,977 --> 00:48:21,287
anything like that so I didn't. The city.

1358
00:48:21,446 --> 00:48:22,641
They never found out who didn't it, but

1359
00:48:22,641 --> 00:48:24,473
the Bay area going to the Midwest was

1360
00:48:24,473 --> 00:48:26,803
a normal thing. You you know And there's

1361
00:48:26,803 --> 00:48:28,400
a acronym name fat tone. He was put

1362
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:30,158
on by sea ball. Like, that's just the

1363
00:48:30,158 --> 00:48:32,155
way it was, but it seemed like when

1364
00:48:32,155 --> 00:48:33,849
the when the South took over, and it

1365
00:48:33,849 --> 00:48:36,109
could be because of the individuals, The

1366
00:48:36,409 --> 00:48:38,650
individuals they got put on didn't show that

1367
00:48:38,650 --> 00:48:40,250
love back. And if you look at who

1368
00:48:40,250 --> 00:48:41,929
these individuals are, you never really heard them

1369
00:48:41,929 --> 00:48:44,018
whipped west coast artist anyway. Now 1 person

1370
00:48:44,098 --> 00:48:46,331
I will say that he he do even

1371
00:48:46,411 --> 00:48:48,326
Don't really listen to his music, Rick Ro

1372
00:48:48,326 --> 00:48:50,080
because he he was on music... He was

1373
00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:52,803
on Nip Album went really nobody knew who

1374
00:48:52,803 --> 00:48:54,152
not showed a lot of love to nip.

1375
00:48:54,390 --> 00:48:54,469
Yeah.

1376
00:48:55,342 --> 00:48:57,089
Yeah. For sure. And still to this day.

1377
00:48:57,327 --> 00:48:59,232
He still gives nip a lot of love.

1378
00:48:59,470 --> 00:49:01,399
Nobody even been in in his passing. So

1379
00:49:01,559 --> 00:49:03,393
I will give Rick ross that. Who else?

1380
00:49:03,553 --> 00:49:04,670
It was a couple of do. There's a

1381
00:49:04,670 --> 00:49:06,919
couple cats from out there that, and matter

1382
00:49:06,919 --> 00:49:08,035
of fact, I don't even know if From

1383
00:49:08,035 --> 00:49:10,108
a saying it's the it's the artist themselves.

1384
00:49:10,267 --> 00:49:12,021
It's more of the lame. It's the people.

1385
00:49:12,340 --> 00:49:14,333
Like it's the you the fans. It's the

1386
00:49:14,333 --> 00:49:16,743
fans that because a lot of the artists

1387
00:49:16,743 --> 00:49:18,262
they ain't on that type of time. No.

1388
00:49:19,300 --> 00:49:21,378
But then again, I do remember seeing me

1389
00:49:21,378 --> 00:49:23,056
mendoza up there when Kendrick won,

1390
00:49:23,616 --> 00:49:26,028
the Grammy for dance. The Me was up

1391
00:49:26,028 --> 00:49:27,946
there and look at real salty. Yeah. But

1392
00:49:28,026 --> 00:49:29,864
I'm kinda... That's the thing is, like, there's

1393
00:49:29,864 --> 00:49:32,581
this new generation of rappers from the south

1394
00:49:32,581 --> 00:49:33,300
to to me.

1395
00:49:33,954 --> 00:49:35,792
Because when I think about the south, when

1396
00:49:35,792 --> 00:49:38,748
you talk about south, I think about UGKI

1397
00:49:38,748 --> 00:49:42,119
remember U k big, than screw tapes. A

1398
00:49:42,119 --> 00:49:44,116
ball m mj c. Ball and m mj

1399
00:49:44,116 --> 00:49:45,655
g who don't some.

1400
00:49:46,433 --> 00:49:48,590
8 ball is in the c. Yeah. He's

1401
00:49:48,590 --> 00:49:50,525
in my top 10. Yeah. That's how much

1402
00:49:50,605 --> 00:49:52,605
I love 8 ball, bro. Yeah. 8... Tell

1403
00:49:52,605 --> 00:49:55,005
you some homie. When he dropped his first

1404
00:49:55,005 --> 00:49:57,336
single, I mean, he dropped his first solo

1405
00:49:57,336 --> 00:49:59,802
project so lost? Was it lost? Yeah. Lost.

1406
00:49:59,961 --> 00:50:02,188
I'm sure as major 1. To me, that

1407
00:50:02,188 --> 00:50:04,652
was 1 of the top 5 hip hop

1408
00:50:04,652 --> 00:50:07,926
albums of 19 98, Bro? Yeah. Yeah. That

1409
00:50:08,085 --> 00:50:10,946
I played that album on repeat more than

1410
00:50:10,946 --> 00:50:13,410
anything. I think that year. Yeah. Yeah. You

1411
00:50:13,410 --> 00:50:15,092
know what I'm saying? Yeah. I see the

1412
00:50:15,092 --> 00:50:17,235
song what you wanna do. Go to war

1413
00:50:17,235 --> 00:50:19,560
man will talk is cheap, in the gang

1414
00:50:19,615 --> 00:50:22,234
chance. Fights only ignite gun place so why

1415
00:50:22,234 --> 00:50:24,162
say watch. Yeah just back and don't come

1416
00:50:24,162 --> 00:50:26,717
around my weight. Nigga oh I figured it

1417
00:50:26,717 --> 00:50:27,755
out Yeah, man.

1418
00:50:28,633 --> 00:50:29,990
That was and and but you know what,

1419
00:50:30,070 --> 00:50:32,679
though? Those artists back then, the couch should

1420
00:50:32,799 --> 00:50:35,586
chasing Era hadn't started yet. So cloud chasing

1421
00:50:35,586 --> 00:50:37,020
air, and I'm not even throw Wayne in

1422
00:50:37,020 --> 00:50:39,431
that. Because wayne Show Wayne was on early

1423
00:50:39,967 --> 00:50:42,212
before He was on e ford I'll self

1424
00:50:42,212 --> 00:50:44,600
made billionaire 97. I don't put none of

1425
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,671
them dudes in... Because I'm wasn't why you

1426
00:50:46,671 --> 00:50:48,581
just sitting here talking. I had to start

1427
00:50:48,581 --> 00:50:51,220
thinking like, it was so much Pro collaboration

1428
00:50:51,220 --> 00:50:53,283
going on between the south the Midwest and

1429
00:50:53,283 --> 00:50:55,028
the west that I can't put it on

1430
00:50:55,028 --> 00:50:56,615
the arc? No. And you remember the 1

1431
00:50:56,615 --> 00:50:59,330
of the biggest songs with smile, Scarf facing

1432
00:50:59,330 --> 00:51:00,943
pop. Yep. That was a huge...

1433
00:51:01,478 --> 00:51:03,387
That was a huge record. Like, Scarf face

1434
00:51:03,387 --> 00:51:05,455
with the bridge. You know dead away from

1435
00:51:05,455 --> 00:51:07,126
that record when it came out, out here.

1436
00:51:07,619 --> 00:51:09,453
Man, they even made a video for Park

1437
00:51:09,453 --> 00:51:09,931
was dead.

1438
00:51:10,888 --> 00:51:12,802
Yeah. I remember. They had a person on

1439
00:51:12,802 --> 00:51:15,034
the cross that you... It might be 2

1440
00:51:15,034 --> 00:51:16,961
popular, but we don't know. You know what

1441
00:51:16,961 --> 00:51:19,347
saying? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was at that

1442
00:51:19,347 --> 00:51:21,177
point. You know what Saying? That's how big

1443
00:51:21,177 --> 00:51:23,818
that was, but the cloud chasing era. That's

1444
00:51:23,818 --> 00:51:26,132
when things started getting a little screw and

1445
00:51:26,212 --> 00:51:28,925
I believe that, you know, down south, the

1446
00:51:28,925 --> 00:51:30,920
cloud chasing it just be on level 10

1447
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:32,609
sometime. Know what Saying? You just be on

1448
00:51:32,609 --> 00:51:34,123
a different level to where you'd be like,

1449
00:51:34,203 --> 00:51:36,195
okay. Now Nigga you're doing too much. Being

00:51:36,195 --> 00:51:38,664
extra. Mh. And then you just doing do.

1451
00:51:38,824 --> 00:51:40,736

1453
00:51:42,900 --> 00:51:45,286

00:56:28,126 --> 00:56:29,713
Yeah. Now. We could go on a hold

1597
00:56:29,713 --> 00:56:31,481
other for But back to the pop out,

1598
00:56:31,720 --> 00:56:33,315
you know, when it comes to the Kendrick

1599
00:56:33,315 --> 00:56:35,708
papa, I love that show. 1, I'm gonna

1600
00:56:35,708 --> 00:56:37,064
just say it right now. I told you

1601
00:56:37,064 --> 00:56:38,819
this already. Kinder Lamar to me is the

1602
00:56:38,819 --> 00:56:41,065
greatest rapper of all time. I mean, know

1603
00:56:41,065 --> 00:56:41,304
for that.

1604
00:56:43,133 --> 00:56:44,724
You know who gonna be bad about you

1605
00:56:44,724 --> 00:56:47,190
saying that. Who too. He ain't on like,

1606
00:56:49,045 --> 00:56:50,485
too can come on and get the smoke.

1607
00:56:50,644 --> 00:56:52,025
If you want it, you know what

1608
00:56:53,605 --> 00:56:54,585
family podcast

1609
00:56:55,137 --> 00:56:56,432
brother. You don't say

1610
00:56:57,126 --> 00:56:57,626
sometimes.

1611
00:56:58,399 --> 00:56:59,990
Because look, this the thing. This and this

1612
00:56:59,990 --> 00:57:01,661
is just this is just my opinion. This

1613
00:57:01,661 --> 00:57:03,491
is this is not the champagne shark. This

1614
00:57:03,491 --> 00:57:06,454
is kenny of hen. Okay? To me, when

1615
00:57:06,454 --> 00:57:09,345
you talk about a artist that's done everything

1616
00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,680
and didn't sell out It has stayed authentic

1617
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:15,060
to himself and matured as an audit... As

1618
00:57:15,060 --> 00:57:16,568
an artist. Now you'd have to go back

1619
00:57:16,568 --> 00:57:17,068
to

1620
00:57:17,599 --> 00:57:18,099
probably...

1621
00:57:18,472 --> 00:57:20,315
I'm not throwing Jay in there because Jay

1622
00:57:20,315 --> 00:57:22,075
has had a lot of missteps when it

1623
00:57:22,075 --> 00:57:23,515
came to maturity. You what I'm saying?

1624
00:57:24,474 --> 00:57:25,515
LLQ,

1625
00:57:25,755 --> 00:57:27,594
you have to go back that far and

1626
00:57:27,594 --> 00:57:30,164
for him to touch on certain Subject that

1627
00:57:30,164 --> 00:57:31,835
cute, and, you know, cuba was my favorite

1628
00:57:31,835 --> 00:57:34,063
rapper of all time. Cube never touched on

1629
00:57:34,063 --> 00:57:36,688
certain subject that Kendrick has touched on, you

1630
00:57:36,688 --> 00:57:38,614
know, when you listen to Mister Morale, I

1631
00:57:38,614 --> 00:57:40,288
didn't know I think you told me this.

1632
00:57:40,527 --> 00:57:42,123
I didn't know that it was actually a

1633
00:57:42,123 --> 00:57:43,877
double album because I'm listening to it through

1634
00:57:43,877 --> 00:57:45,631
streaming services. So I didn't know, you know,

1635
00:57:45,791 --> 00:57:47,545
we don't actually go by physical.

1636
00:57:48,039 --> 00:57:49,953
Cds anymore. You know I'm saying? But this

1637
00:57:49,953 --> 00:57:52,185
is a double album, and the first half

1638
00:57:52,185 --> 00:57:54,338
of this of the album is the half

1639
00:57:54,338 --> 00:57:55,932
with codec on it, which is the point.

1640
00:57:56,092 --> 00:57:58,178
The big step you know? Talk big shit.

1641
00:57:58,337 --> 00:57:59,610
You know what Saying All this, you know,

1642
00:57:59,769 --> 00:58:02,316
living living Way and then mister Morales is

1643
00:58:02,316 --> 00:58:04,385
the second half where he goes to therapy.

1644
00:58:04,624 --> 00:58:06,295
That's why the second half starts with him.

1645
00:58:06,549 --> 00:58:08,148
Talking to the therapist. Yeah. Yeah You know

1646
00:58:08,148 --> 00:58:10,066
what Saying? I didn't know that. But no

1647
00:58:10,066 --> 00:58:12,223
that down. And then looking at how we

1648
00:58:12,223 --> 00:58:14,141
went from... And I... I'm not gonna include

1649
00:58:14,141 --> 00:58:15,740
section because that was more like a quote

1650
00:58:15,740 --> 00:58:17,425
unquote. State. When you go with Good kid

1651
00:58:17,504 --> 00:58:19,489
Mad City where he's letting you know this

1652
00:58:19,489 --> 00:58:20,838
is where I come from. This is what

1653
00:58:20,918 --> 00:58:22,505
I've been through as a young person. This

1654
00:58:22,505 --> 00:58:24,728
is what happened to me in my lifetime

1655
00:58:24,728 --> 00:58:27,288
to to Pi butterfly. I made it, and

1656
00:58:27,288 --> 00:58:29,117
these are the demons I'm struggling with. Yeah.

1657
00:58:29,277 --> 00:58:31,424
For sure. You you get damn, and it's

1658
00:58:31,424 --> 00:58:33,453
still a little bit of the last 2

1659
00:58:33,511 --> 00:58:36,064
together, and then you get more radio friendly

1660
00:58:36,064 --> 00:58:37,899
hits on it too. Yeah. And then you

1661
00:58:37,899 --> 00:58:39,710
get last ask 1 where I went to

1662
00:58:39,909 --> 00:58:41,738
therapy. These are the things I was struggling

1663
00:58:41,738 --> 00:58:44,363
with as a grown man? How many grown

1664
00:58:44,363 --> 00:58:46,724

Real life problems. Not a made up shit.

1668
00:58:53,854 --> 00:58:56,139
Right. For so. And then talk about

1669
00:58:56,659 --> 00:58:59,216

1670
00:58:59,216 --> 00:59:01,293

00:59:01,293 --> 00:59:04,010
his mother had been the most projected onto

1672
00:59:04,010 --> 00:59:06,419
him. Yes. You took it out on another

1673
00:59:06,419 --> 00:59:09,527
relative or talk about his auntie who transitioned

1674
00:59:09,527 --> 00:59:10,883
into a man. You know what I'm saying?

episode. They are inaugural West Post shark episode.

1678
00:59:18,079 --> 00:59:19,437
We talked about a lot of this. Right.

1679
00:59:19,676 --> 00:59:22,071
Cal, trauma and things like that have affected

1680
00:59:22,071 --> 00:59:24,241
us in our lives, and even to this

1681
00:59:24,241 --> 00:59:25,757
day, I had a conversation with my brother,

1682
00:59:26,315 --> 00:59:27,592
a couple days ago. And I told him,

1683
00:59:27,911 --> 00:59:29,268
I meditate a lot. You know, and I

1684
00:59:29,268 --> 00:59:31,197
told us that when I meditate. I'm certain

1685
00:59:31,197 --> 00:59:33,750
things pop into my mind that I forgot

1686
00:59:33,750 --> 00:59:36,222
about. III was meditating the other day, and

1687
00:59:36,382 --> 00:59:38,296
I thought about this girl. I had a

1688
00:59:38,296 --> 00:59:39,811
crush on when I was a freshman in

1689
00:59:39,811 --> 00:59:41,659
high school. I ain't thought about this girl

1690
00:59:41,659 --> 00:59:44,208
in 30 years. Mh. But for whatever reason,

1691
00:59:44,368 --> 00:59:46,439
she popped into my mind. I thought about,

1692
00:59:46,917 --> 00:59:48,769
a couple of Birthdays I had. And I

1693
00:59:48,769 --> 00:59:50,289
told my brother, I said, look, Bro, We've

1694
00:59:50,289 --> 00:59:51,809
been through a lot... I said, but I'm

1695
00:59:51,809 --> 00:59:53,489
here to tell you everything wasn't bad. You

1696
00:59:53,489 --> 00:59:55,650
know what I'm saying? Everything wasn't bad. It's

1697
00:59:55,650 --> 00:59:58,522
just at the pain sticks out more than

1698
00:59:58,522 --> 01:00:00,663
the the happiness and the joy. You know,

1699
01:00:00,822 --> 01:00:02,963
I can remember the joyful things and, you

1700
01:00:02,963 --> 01:00:04,803
know, all of that, but that pain when

1701
01:00:04,803 --> 01:00:06,708
something happens it scars you. As as the

1702
01:00:06,708 --> 01:00:07,659
rapper cost says,

1703
01:00:08,373 --> 01:00:09,960
the wounds of my body healed faster than

1704
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:11,626
the scars in my mind. Right. Know what

1705
01:00:11,626 --> 01:00:14,273
saying yeah. Hard to get the pain because

1706
01:00:14,273 --> 01:00:15,871
it it's... It it it could stunt your

1707
01:00:15,871 --> 01:00:16,590
growth a little bit.

1708
01:00:17,789 --> 01:00:20,267
