Man, these boys right here, man, they cause a whole bunch of problems, with a whole bunch of long teas. Back in the days, my nigga, I know these boys right here. Man, and I used to hear y'all was from Mesquite. I ain't gonna lie, that's what nigga was saying, they from Mesquite. I'm like, nah, they don't give a... Man, y'all was everywhere. We was just everywhere. You know what I'm saying? Doing pep rallies and stuff like that. Wow, man, like, so you guys, man, to be real with you, man, I like, we like to get into the back story, so I know Mr. Maker, how you doing? I'm good, man. I'm ready to go. Oh, okay, man. Well, let's talk to him, man. Okay. Who you going with, fame or who you going with? Which one you gonna go with? The one closest to me. Oh, that's fine. Yes. What's happening? So, I like to know, cause our audience like to know where you from, how you were raised, mother, dad, grandparents, as far back as you can remember, we want to know the whole shebang. All right, I'm from Dallas, better known as Oaklea. Oh, okay. Then I moved to the other side of Oaklea. And me. And grew up around this guy too, so. I'm pretty much meeting a role, 67, you know what I'm saying? 67, extra wheeling, boom, that puncho, that's me. Cause I always thought that Oaklea was like South Dallas, where it was dangerous and all of that. But then when he taped me and riding through, I'm like, some of these big old houses down here. I'm like, this don't look like no hood. Yeah, but it's like, I stay on the edge of Oaklea and Dunkinville, like right there, 67. Okay. So, what was that area like? It was amazing. It was amazing. What made it so amazing? Just, it was just the era, you know, like, we really did different things in that era. We really were made the world is what it is now. It was fun. It was fun. It was fun. Brothers, sisters. Yep. You the oldest, youngest? Yeah, I'm the oldest brother. Oldest brother? So a lot of responsibilities fell on your shoulders? Yep. Okay, how did the pressure feel? My little sisters, they. Made it easy. They make it easy. Breezy. But you be the big brother, always checking in with them, like checking in with the guys that they talked to, all of that. Do you act like a daddy? My sister just got married. One of my sisters just got married. So. Congratulations. You know what I mean? You know, I got two little sisters in New Orleans. My little babies, man. They, they getting grown now, like 13. And mom and dad lived together while you were being raised? No, my mom and dad been beefing since before I hit the earth. Really? Yeah, right, right. But your dad was in your life, right? That's good. He was in prison for a minute, but he got out and, you know, started being the father that he could be. That's good. I like to see, although we know, we grown now, so we know that men and women don't always agree and always, you not always have that perfect relationship where you can be in that same household together. But I always feel like a man needs to be a man and still be a part of their kid's life. And not just, you know, deuces, you do you, I can't deal with her type of thing. I don't believe in that. So I'm happy that he was a part of your life. So when did you start thinking about music? Oh, when my dad got out of prison, I was like seven or eight. He used to take me to rap daddies right there on Cal Wisdom. And I was the only kid that could get in there. Because of your daddy? Yeah, he was cool with the honor. So that's when I started rapping in front of people. And then me and this guy was on the same basketball team. Okay. So we used to make the songs at his house. And then it just, it's been going for a long time. I love to see a group or people who can be together for a long time because I've seen so many groups who always end up arguing and breaking up because of disagreements, girls, whatever it is. It's always something or management, whatever. But if you can stick together through it, that's amazing because you don't see it very often. Man, hold up. B-Ree, what's up, baby? What's going down, boss? Man, you hanging out today with Boss Talk 101, what a boss is talking. Man. You know what I'm saying? Yes, Lord. Say amen. So I mean, how was it for you, man, coming up? I mean, I know already I heard about it. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, it was similar just like that. He ain't missed out on too much and nothing really. You know, we went to Duncanville High School, you know, and we used to play basketball at the high school together, grew up playing sports together, you know, rapping for the whole team and have time and stuff like that. What position you played in basketball? In basketball, I was like shooting guard, you know what I'm saying? But you tall. Why are you playing shooting guard? And not like a forward or center, not a center, because you're not that bad. But yeah, I was, you know, they did switch my position that I think about it. Yeah. You know, from a shooting guard, they moved me to a power forward. Yeah, that's what I would think. Yo. Because you tall. They shouldn't be. So they moved him to shooting guard, though, because I don't know, he wasn't missing nothing really. He looked like he could be a center. Hey, hey, this center got a hell of a three on them. Oh, really? I can shoot these days. Yeah, I can shoot. These y'all only take it to the hoop. That's it. They don't be shooting. They used to do that back in the day. Now I want them three points. D-Day is what they be doing. Pulling up. Yeah. Loaning up. D-Day, but no, just the fact of you guys being in that area and the way that you guys came up. So how was it like, like, I seen you niggas dancing. Y'all were dipping and moving and niggas, y'all niggas was the first one. It was another cat, Emanuel them, and Taylor Gabriel, who was about to y'all eat. They used to do it during that time. They all used to be in this store, and they used to be doing that same little old dance. I didn't, Taylor didn't, but it was Emanuel. He thought he was going to be a damn dancer. The niggas was a hell of a docker now, but at the end of the day, that was during that same era. This store was here, and they was rocking with y'all. It's been 15 years this store. It's 18 years now. Let's do it. Yeah, like our first pay show on the roll was like, what, like 17, 18 years old? So it was like... That's a lie. You know what I'm saying? How old? First show, we was 13. We went to Tulsa, Oklahoma. Well, nah, not 13. Yeah, because y'all lied while I go, because y'all said, in one video, but y'all said y'all quit school in 13. Now, how in the hell you start playing basketball now? I got you now. You feel me? He quit school at 13. He really did though, but far as me, like... Man, he got kicked out for selling weed at 13. We both went out of school at the same time. Nah, we went out of school. We and each other were together. I went out of school. He went to, you know, the club. You moved to Atlanta for like a few years. He didn't tell y'all that before. Okay. He went to Atlanta. Y'all got that boom, boom, boom. See what I'm saying? He was out there pushing the young nation You know what I'm saying? That's why people call us Texas legends. I respect that. I love it. I appreciate y'all, but we really worldwide. Shout out to Atlanta. Played a big part of your nation's career. Yeah, I'd be in zone six at the Texas goal. Like, yeah, we'd be outside out there. Like, shout out to College Park. Like, you know, like... Y'all was right after the Stanky League, boys. Y'all was right after that, wasn't you? Yeah, but the first place... So, he right. It was like, what, 15, 16? No, he was 13. 13. He kept saying 13. He's sticking to his gun. 13. But probably for him, not for me. So, okay, so you did yours by yourself at 13? He couldn't go. Y'all was in school. He was still in school. That's what happened, man. He couldn't go to the first show that we actually had. Well, it was too early. How did you get that show in the first place? God did. They believe in me. I told my mom, I said, Mom, we about to go crazy. I told her. I told your mom. Yeah, because be the mom. Be the mom. You finish... You not even finish school, but you stopped school at 13 and you say you're gonna do this rap thing I'd have been throwing a fit. How did your mom handle it? So, to be honest, what happened was the show, the first show that we had, his parents didn't let him go because it was a Sunday night type show. And my mom was like, shit, if you go to the show, you're gonna come back home to a flight. I'm sending you to New Orleans to your dad. So, of course me, she go to sleep. I walk out. You know what I'm saying? I come back to a first-class ticket. She held her part of the party. To New Orleans, but then, you know, come to find out, my dad moved back to Atlanta. From New Orleans at that time, he was living in New Orleans for a minute. So then, you know, I went to Atlanta. She couldn't deal with you. So how did you go back to school in Atlanta? No. That dropped out. I was living a life. You would think that she would say, okay, your dad's going straight to you out. You're gonna go back to school in Atlanta. That's what she thought was gonna happen. But, you know, me being me, we already had some motion out there. So I made a few calls when I got there. And I'll never forget, as soon as I got there to Atlanta, I was in zone six area. And my partner came and got me escalated on 24. And, you know, this was them days. At 13. Yeah, but this was like probably like when I was turning 14 though. This was more than 14 then. But yeah, I'll never forget. That's crazy. He did leave for a while. So you left and you were still here. So when did y'all link back up? Well, you know, I actually stayed in school for like two more years after that. So you didn't finish? I didn't finish really. That's when he said you got kicked out because you're selling weed. Yeah, I didn't get kicked out of school to my 10th grade, you know. But y'all was Thug Boss Nation during this time. Yes. Who came up with the name? We actually, those are our OGs. Like my big bros was Thug Boss Nation. I was together. All y'all was in the same. It was, it was a whole, it was like 50 niggas. Oh, wow. It was a gang. And y'all always hanging out and basically dancing and, you know, doing your thing at that time. Dancing, fighting, studio. Yeah, dancing, fighting. We had dancers. It was niggas that said that if you see them coming, don't, don't let, if they close to your house, don't let them in. Yeah, yeah. Don't be in real, yeah. Man, I still be with you. Y'all were that bad? Y'all were that bad? I was a good guy. They was that. I call it ignorant. We was just young and dumb. But it really wasn't me and him. Me and him was always like the little bros that they looked out for. And I appreciate that to this day. They'll do their dirty bring it back to us. You said ignorant. You said ignorant. So if you see a kid right now, 13, 14, going through the same situation and acting the same way how you did when you was younger, how would you advise that kid? I'd say, man, tighten up. Shopping up. We gotta get it. This ain't gonna help you. Because all my problems, we're all in jail. I'm gonna ask him, I'm gonna ask him. Are you sure this is what you want to do? No, I'm not saying that I'm bad. Me and Reece, you would be the one to ask something like that because from what I heard, you got hit by a bullet that wasn't for you down in that corner. Let's talk about that for a minute. I want to talk about how that night was. I mean, break that down to me. How you out. You trying to do something that your career- Who's at a show, too? That's what I'm saying. Just break it all the way down. Mostly all together. We're going on together. And then I want to know what was going on in your mind during that time. Okay, you know, I brought the whole gang with me. They was living with us. So we brought them with me in fame to the show. You know what I'm saying? Darrell was helping us and everything back then. But like, Darrell had moved us into our own spot. So we all went to this show right on the outskirts of Dallas in the country. What was it with that? I don't want to say the same. No, I don't want to say the same. It wasn't that. I ain't going to say the same. I don't even remember the same. It's still a lot of- Up in there. It's an open case, still. It's still an open case. Why is that a long year? That's not a long time. It's not an open case. It's great. But it's just like the nigga that did it went to jail and we- I mean, I'm still going to get him though. What the hell? I'm not saying- This nigga went to jail! This nigga went to jail for four pounds of cray. Yeah, yeah. Wow. This nigga went to jail for four pounds of cray. All right, let's talk about it. The nigga that let it happen went to high school with me. Right? Okay. I'm going to get him. So just tell me, like, was he was shooting at him? Nah, like, he was on our side at the show. He was all good. You know, my partners, they were talking to some girls. I don't know some random stuff. Then I saw them getting to each other's face. Yeah. All of them. My homies that I brought with me and some more people from that city. They was in each other's face. I'm like, what are they doing? So, you know what I'm saying? Fame was like, let's go, let's go. But me being who I am, I'm like, nah. So Fame followed me over there, too. You know what I'm saying? Then it went down after that. Like, I started swinging pool balls, pool sticks at them. After you had got shot? Nah, it was right there before. They was trying to reach in their pocket and grab it. Oh, yeah. And he tried to stop them. Yeah. I'm like, wow, wow. Hidden there with some rock bottles, all type of stuff. And then we went outside to the car. We got in the car, you know what I'm saying? Like, 20 niggas following us. They got that straight up like, yeah, yeah. You know what I'm saying? We run into the car, as a matter of fact. Then they just start letting off fireworks at us. And you were in the car with him? Nah, we was in a different car. I had that fire in the car. But they told us it was a teen show, so don't come in the club with a gun. And it was a teen show, wasn't it? It was a teen show, wasn't it? It was the older niggas in that whole hating like they big brothers. So it was low key with some set up shit, because niggas, I performed at that moment, and even then before that, I performed with guns in my pocket. Like, I don't play like that. What did you, where were your mind stayed at when you got hit? Like when it, when that car. I didn't see it in Russia. I didn't feel it until, you know, we pulled over like 20 minutes back from the house downtown. And then Faye and them said, get out the car real quick. You bleeding from your other side. I'm like, really? You didn't even realize you was bleeding. I didn't realize, because my homie, he just got struck in the face with a pool ball. My homie feel the real. Okay. Got hit in the face. So I'm like, damn, we got, we got to take him to the hospital. I ain't know. I was going to the hospital for something. Yeah. Yeah. Luckily it didn't hit no main artery. It ain't nothing crazy, man. Now I'm supposed to be paralyzed right now. Really? So because of that shot. And God made a way. How long did it take for you? He is, he is. But how long did it take for you to start walking again? Because. I walked out the hospital the next day. We had a show the next day. Good life. And you did the show. I did the show on crutches. But you got to realize, two partners around there. Niggas got motivation from different places back then. I remember back then I took the. Niggas get a shot. He got to go do to the studio. Like, yeah. Like we got to get to the studio immediately until Niggas. Niggas, I got hit. And I'm still here. You got to put it in the song. Yep, yep. He didn't even sit there. I can promise you. That's the way we got back then. Am I right? Yeah. We was, we was just trying to stick to it. We were like, you know what? We ain't going to even rap about it. Let's just keep making dance music. You know what I'm saying? You weren't able to dance at that time. I never. I always had dance. Yeah. But. No, I'm talking with a crutch. No, I'm just saying. Oh, okay. Okay, got you. Now, he hit the show on crutches, man. Oh, yeah. No, not at that show. Are you right? I couldn't bust no more. You couldn't dance at that show. You could throw a crutch up, though, if you wanted to just a little bit. They didn't want us to make it. But God did. Motherfuckers. That's what I did. We fell back. It's a deal between falling off and falling back. You know what I'm saying? Well, you got smoke sometimes. I'm glad you said that. I could never figure out the exact words. Yeah, you can't fall off. So I'm telling you, you got to fall back, reevaluate. You know what I'm saying? Go to a different state. Let the sun shine in it. Old school niggas say it's a minor setback for a major comeback. Oh, major. Yeah. You know what I love? I love the fact you always mentioned in God. How important is God in your career and your life right now? I'm not even really supposed to be living. So when I died as a kid. It was just a long, a long story. No, we're here to make it short. I'm going to draw a documentary. No, I'm going to tell them. No, my mom's going to... Because I don't explain the story right because I wasn't physically there. Was it like at birth? At birth, yeah. I had like 20 minutes to live. And I still made it. So ever since then, it's like my whole life been a blessing. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. Like I was here for a reason. So I don't need to really be tripping about nothing because it's like, man, everything is a win when you're not supposed to be here. Tell your mom when she dropped that, she can come on here and talk about it. Yeah, man. Y'all got to go to a church and do it. That's fine. Get that holy anointing. That's fine. That's fine? All right. Like I said, we have a lot of ministers to come on here. Yeah, we interview pastors and everybody. Yeah, all the time. We do everybody. Pastors. This is a big pastor. There ain't no... Counselors, doctors, lawyers, everybody. We can go either way, man. Like I said, I mean, this is a universal podcast. Exactly. Yeah, we can set that up. For real. She'll love it. I just want to say, man, you guys, man, thank you guys for your contribution to what you guys brought to the city with during that boogie music. Is it boogie through the door? Or you know... That was one of our first songs. Yeah, I mean, what was it? Who came up with that? That was... You're looking at them right here. Yeah. He ain't gonna, he ain't gonna take the credit for it because like beefing with them niggas too. But uh, yeah. Yeah. They tried to take our whole swear. You hear me? Like real talk. They tried to take his whole... With who? The Geekmen? The Geekmanship. They tried to take my... They tried to take it off. They're in Dallas though, right? Yeah, they out too. But I'm just saying, like, like y'all, I thought y'all started off together young and basically just kind of grew apart, but you saying they're still... Now we ain't talking about thug, boss. We talking about some old people that just... We stood. We used to be around some people that, like, they was older than us, so they used to... Was able to move faster with our product. Okay. Okay. When you were in ninth grade, you can't do with a... Exactly. ...all of the... Sing you're doing. So that was really the problem, man. Honestly, I feel like, now that I look back on it, they helped more than I thought it hurt. That's what I would say. They was really... That's what I would say. Free promoters. Right. That's exactly what it was. He was trying to help. He was trying to help and... No, he did help. Yeah. I rock with him here being like, it's all love, for real, for real. Yeah, yeah. It's just the way that they did it, though. Yeah, man. But you was younger. Still though, it's not what you do, it's the way you do it sometime. Well, but you... But he's older now, so he can look back on it and realize that, okay, it still was messed up, no matter what. Because when you're at a young stage, the way how you think, as a young person compared to the way you think when you're older, is two different ways. If you still feel the same way. Because I wasn't even... We wasn't even rappers. I was making songs for a good grade in class so I could play basketball. I've never was no fucking rapper. Like, it just happened. How does that work? You make songs for a good grade? Because I was in a media class that had cameras, and we had Final Cut Pro. I remember this like the back of my hand. The teacher was like, if you want to play basketball this year, you got to pass. And I was like, I suck on Final Cut Pro. But she had a studio, so I was like, if they make the video, I'll make the song for the... You know. We can pull it up right now. It's on YouTube. And then that's just where it went from there. And people really liked that shit. I'm like, oh, shit. And then he got in the class. Ah, yeah, when I got in the class, it was over. It was a wrap. That's it. I mean, you guys, man, you guys got such a history, man. Explain to me the primetime click, collab that you guys did. You know, basically during that time, kind of how it all came together. Shout out to my boys, man. I rocked the row. Shout out to Roar and Ace Boogie. Yeah, Ace Boogie. Yeah, for real. Yeah, it was too... So tell me about it. Just give me the spiel on what was going down during that time. Man, it was just like a whole bunch of creators that linked up. You had... I felt like the whole city was in the room because you had the row. He just had all these platinum records, great success. And then you had the future of the city. And it was just, you know, the city linking up. And it was... Yeah, it's a long time. Dallas really don't do that. So that's why I feel like that's why it was such a big thing because Dallas don't, you know, link up. From what I heard, it was a $300,000 advance or something given. Pretty much, yeah. Pretty much. And jewelry and all type of shit. But it wasn't even just that. I didn't even clear this up. Because if you just talk about it, I want to hear about it in detail. What happened? Because when you give me like a $300,000, whatever, during that time, it has to be something to what you're like, damn, yeah, I'm going to do this. So give me the insight. Don't leave nothing out. I mean, that was just a love. It was, you know, like, first of all, fuck the jewelry, fuck all the other shit. The business was right. The business was right on that end. We already had structure with our business. So to collab was just smart at that moment. And, you know, before even the jewelry and all the $300,000, we met this guy and had conversations and dealt with him for months before we even did any business interaction. So are you saying the business was right because of that? No, the business was right at the right way. The business was right before we even existed there. It took my career. It was already plenty of money being made. It was already, you know, like, imagine somebody that's already been successful and you successful, they're going to show you the ropes of like, okay. You know what I mean? It's the same thing. Money bag, y'all did, we got it. It's the same thing. How? Birdman did, we won. But how fast did you, it was money and jewelry, right? Yeah, but the jewelry wasn't a thing like, we're going to sign you for this jewelry. That shit just happened because- How fast did y'all go through the money with it being the first, you know, y'all had a little money, but- He did it the right way. Like, he took my parents out to eat, fame, all that. Took y'all mama out to eat. Took us out to eat, made sure everybody was straight and- Make sure that he- It wasn't even, because we had the money to pay for everything too, but it wasn't about that. It was about the future structure that we was planning and the future plans, and that's what I fucked with the most, because we had a lot of deals on the table at that moment, to be honest, but it was the future of what we was vanging on, because if we were to sign certain deals, you would probably wouldn't see us right now, because- I just couldn't paint y'all with like the hottest song, and we was open enough for him in Orlando, Florida. I'm talking about Vegas. You know what I'm saying? Everywhere. And then he basically, when y'all would open up, what song did y'all- Nobody even really- Open up with- But guess what? He letting us open up. Yes. Yes. You're- Well, he did the same thing for Mode 3. Mode 3 on the 979- No, just on one instance, where he came on here and talked about Mode 3 going out and performing at 979 to be car show. They didn't have him slotted right, so that was a big deal. So what I'm saying is, it's something about him where he always showed love. For him to even link up with y'all during that time, and he had options too. I heard my guy right here, Fame say he had options, but both of y'all had options to do other things, and y'all chose to work together. And I think that's something dope, and I think the city needs to hear that. The city needs to know that because we so quick to say that nobody looks out for nobody in the city. But that's not true, according to what you guys are saying. They always told me if I ain't love the city- No, I'm talking about far as people can't work together. You see what I'm saying? People can't come together. But y'all just said y'all just did. You came together with Prime Time Click. That's from Prime Time Click. Why can't... You know what I'm finna say. I'm not going to say it. You know what I'm saying? Why can't they all just hear what I'm saying? Everybody don't do that. Cut the bulls and gone in. Yeah, but if you talk about that, if you talk about that, the centralized beef, it's lives been lost. I know. That's what I'm saying. So you can't really say that. That's a whole another bargain. We are evolving. We're evolving though. And it's a slow but moving progress. You know what I mean? Yeah, he ain't just talking about certain situations. He's just saying period life. The whole city? The whole city. Even people we got problems with. Motherfuckers, y'all let that shit go. Because we don't hurt and help. Y'all don't hurt and help. Everybody young, everybody work, everybody crazy. Everybody figuring this shit out, man. Y'all niggas just let it go. When you think about just the things that you guys was able to accomplish in the time that you were able to accomplish this, it was a guy named Lil' Twist. Right, right. Lil' Twist was one of the guys that I remember Lil' Twist. If I'm not mistaken, wasn't he dealing with Diamond D a little bit earlier? Hell yeah. Yeah, Twist was with Diamond D. Yeah, yeah. And so just break down how you and Lil' Twist and them even came to, you know, be linked up like you guys did. Man, him and Twist was cool. What? Elementary. They still cool to the day, but I'm saying like. You almost dig in there. Right, right. We are. Nah, they close close like him and Twist. Y'all didn't ever get into it? Nah, we. What about that one time? Me and Twist. It was a trip. It was a trip. Me and Twist used to live together, but check this out. Yeah, we are. Man, me and Twist, we ain't ever just had no disagreement. We just had a, you know what I'm saying? Misunderstanding. Didn't want to talk for a little minute, but that ain't, that ain't nothing. That's just the music. Y'all brothers, that's family. Yeah, we was just giving each other a break. Family to do that, right? We was living together. We just needed like a love. Did you support him when he went over the cash? I know y'all went over the young money. Tell me about when y'all went over the young money with him. Did you go? Yeah. How was that when you went with young money? Because I heard they got to have a hell of a camp at the time. Man, it was amazing, man. I appreciate Twist, Mack Mayne, Lil Wayne. I met Mack Mayne. Shit, man. One of the best experiences ever. They really, you know, took us under their wing. Let us, you know, rep our brand. Let us tour. Man, I want a little Twist and Bird, man. What did y'all do there, though, man? I hear stories about Bird Man, and I hear stories about the whole camp. I hear stories about how they move. I'm a big Bird Man fan, to be honest with you. Tell me one thing about... So just tell me about how it was not, you know, the Lil Wayne situation where you guys, because y'all even have music with him, right? Okay, so just tell me how you guys, I mean, because y'all don't want to spill a beat. Nigga, don't just go up there and do a song with Lil Wayne. I just interviewed Compton Menace, and he got a song with Lil Wayne. Hell, tell me the truth. What happened? Twist did a lot for me. Like, he let me open up a Drake and J Cole right when they was blowing up. Don't. That's what I'm about. We was, I ain't gonna lie, we was hotter than Drake and J Cole at this time. Okay. Let's be real. No, no, and I hear it. Because we started going music before then. For them, man. Exactly. When they first signed to Young Money, I never forget that. But let's stop for a second. You said you was hotter than Drake and J Cole. He wasn't rapping. No, no, no. Say it again. You gotta say that. They were rapping. Say it again. Yeah, I think there ain't no bunch of people can say that, but you and soldier, boy. That's it. Right, like, to it, like, to it, like, A-B-Ree, I want you to come open up for Drake and J Cole. I'm like, really? I couldn't believe it. But at the same time, I had to thank for a second. Like, we really are just, we bigger than them. Really? Yeah, so I was excited about it. I'm a young nigga, but I'm big homie. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, so basically you guys opened up and, and, and we opened up for them. How was it? Did you ever have a conversation with Drake during that time? Oh, yeah, we, we talked to them. Fame and Drake, they got real cool. Y'all still rock? Yeah, man, I, I mean, to be honest, I ain't saw Drake in the, in the minute, because I've been, you know, honing in on my craft. But like, when I was in LA doing my thing, he would always be around me, to which Wayne and, you know, it's a, you know, mutual relationship. Like, he cool as hell. All right, how, how is he? Let's, let's talk, let me talk about, y'all did, y'all thought about doing some music together and no? No, no. To be honest, I don't think Drake know about us. Like that, that was 10 years ago. Yeah, he's, yeah, he's okay. You know what I mean? Like, he don't really know like that. Well, it's a couple of, we had a guy on our show that said that Drake texted him. So, you know, sometimes, you know, maybe he might text y'all again. We don't know. I don't walk up to niggas like, Hey, I do music. We opened up for you 10 years ago. And I'm at your house right now. But hey, you know what I'm saying? So. But a solid nigga gonna remember that though. No, for sure. For sure. Oh yeah, let's be real. A solid nigga don't forget 10 years ago. Don't forget about that. I got niggas become this stuff for 15 years and they come through the door and I still remember. Drake solid as hell. But the thing about it was, we didn't go through Drake. We went through Cortez Bryant, which is Drake's manager, Nicky's manager. Yeah, so it wasn't genuine. It was. It was super genuine. Well, and he still, she remember y'all. Tears remember me? Tears is my love. Now I'm talking about Drake too, if y'all was hanging out with him. I'm telling you this because I don't play, man. Like a nigga don't play no entertainment game. No, I don't understand. If a nigga meet me, if he meet me. Bro, I meet people every day. You gotta understand. Bro, they better know. I'm a star. Bro, if a nigga meet me every day, I'm a star. So you gotta think about it. You gotta think about it. If you meet people every day for 20 years, how many motherfuckers are you gonna actually remember? You gotta think about it. If a nigga be going four, five states a day, and Drake, nigga not gonna remember you. I'm not gonna say Drake don't know who young nation is, but I mean, he ain't finna just, you know, hit us up like, hey, yeah. Y'all didn't have that kind of relationship. But the nigga know who young nation is. Cortez Bryant out. Shout out to Tears, man, the real guy. I'm talking about we in the club with Drake, Two Chains, Future. I'm talking about Drake looking at her like, hold on. Ain't that young nation? Yeah, he like, they got no hands over here to not do it. That's all I'm saying, my nigga. That's all I'm saying, you know what I'm saying? Chris, what's up? You like, what's good, baby? That's all I'm saying? That's it. We just want to let it be known. But any love, Texas too. So, Mr. Texas, man. Mr. Texas, man. One of the stars of the love, like, you know what I'm saying? I flew to L.A. time and time again, staying at Justin Bieber house with Twitch. Like, it don't get no better than that. So, that brings up another point. I mean, do Twitch remember you? You been knowing him for 10 years? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I don't play me, dawg. I'm playing you, man. I'm pushing that friend before this shit, man. I don't play me, man. I don't give a damn if they're niggas playing you. He know you, nigga. Y'all young nation. They know us, but he better know you. Hey, I don't know you. I don't know you. I just love Texas, bro. I don't play by Texas. You didn't knock it out like you don't know us when we come in, nigga. That's the way I act, too. He does this everywhere. I don't care where I'm at. Ah, that's love, man. Nigga gonna understand, we here, nigga. Boss talk, yeah, yeah. If you're gonna kill, I'll feature chances. So I knew it was something. Drizzy, listen, dawg. This nigga tripping. Hey, it's been 12 years. I don't shift a lot of lanes. Nothing can change your life with a conversation. That's what I'm saying. If a nigga- I'm telling you, bro, I want you to have fun. If a nigga comes, I mean, really, if he rocks, if he rocks, yeah. So, but just the little Wayne thing, which I'll do in a song with him. I know he do songs with everybody here. We don't cover up with this nigga. Cover up with this nigga. He did one with double A. He just did one with double A. That's my nigga. He just left here. And he did one with Compton Menace. And now he did one with y'all. Now, this nigga don't remember y'all doing a song with y'all. Wayne. Wayne is my mentor. Yeah, Wayne. Wayne remember Drake, don't. I just don't get it, my nigga. He's saying Drake remembers me. Drake remembers me. He's on the band. Yeah, he was like, 12 years ago. He did not remember you, boy. Damn. You done grew that damn beard. So, I'm dead. He's gonna be like, damn, man, you think I remember this? Man, y'all trippin', bro. Y'all trippin', bro. Say, that's the way both sides are. I don't remember nobody. So, you think he remembers? I don't remember nobody, bro. He's thinking, you don't remember Drake now? Don't get it, nigga. That's why you gotta make an impact when you meet people for the first time so they can never forget you. That's exactly what I say. That's really what it is. Man, I was saying that when I was 14. See, I met Drake. I had like 10 bears in my pocket, right? I wouldn't even think enough. Let me throw some money real quick. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? That wasn't even back then. You know what I'm saying? Just being who you are was the shit. You know what I mean? You viewed it down that you'd have been the man. I would have been the man. So, I got a question for fame. We had Barrio on here. Yeah, man. And are you his brother? Like brother, brother? You say who? Barrio. Barrio. Why you saying Barrio? Yeah. Nah, that's his fame. He's been to it. Okay. Oh, I'm not shaking because he mentioned that he had a brother in a young nation. So, I was just checking to see who he was. Nah, honestly, he's talking about me. Barrio talking about me. Oh, what the fuck? Okay. So, you all like brothers. I get it. Shout out to Barrio, man. That's my boy, man. Shout out to, hey, my free little Blake. Shout out to Barrio. Free little Blake in his home. Oh. Y'all don't know nothing about that. I don't know nothing about that. Yeah. Y'all are funny, man. This shit down there. Comedy too. But it's a real comedy. A sitcom. Here's a real sitcom. He's kicking it, dawg. That's why it's gonna be going, though. Because we be having a good time, man. You know, you guys say- But yeah, man. Nick got an earth drink. You think he remember you, dawg? Hold on, bro. Jesse. I'm telling you, you're a bad boy. Bro, that's a bit- God, that was real. Like, if you did a song with Lil Wayne, and Lil Wayne put that nigga on there, there's no reason why that nigga should remember you. He lives in Canada. I wouldn't give a damn if you do songs in Houston, nigga, just to be seen when he came out. He would pay homage to the Houston. Hey, Drake, it's Texas bound. What you saying? Exactly. Yeah. Exactly. So he do remember you. When was the last time you been to Houston? Drake knows you. I don't know what I'm talking about, though, man. He knows you, bro. I like to say people don't know me, even if they do. You know what I'm saying? The nigga better, yeah. Drake, make sure you hit the like button if you know this nigga, if you don't, nigga, don't look at it no more. Turn your head and turn on the chief like Jesus, man. I'm always talking about Drake so much. He's always playing, drinking shit, playing. So let me know, man. So when you first, when you were a little twist, did y'all do some music together, of course? Oh, yeah. Twist, man. He put me on, like, when he first got signed to Cash Money, he put me in fame on, like, every mixtape he dropped. You know what I mean? What's some of the things that, you know, maybe even Lil Wayne, any of those guys in that camp, Meg Mane, anything that influenced y'all's career, the way y'all said, man. They don't leave the studio. That's big. I hear that a lot. They don't leave the studio. And that's what I, you know, like, you know, I'm a studio, I stay in the studio. Like, I just work, man, everything goes. Like, right now, it's fun and games, you know, but after this, where you hit. Back to the studio, man. I might go to churches, just, you know, feel that vibe. Not Rudy's. No. I ain't been to churches in years. So I'm gonna go to churches, feel that vibe, and go back to work, man. No. That's what, that's the biggest thing I picked up on them. And that's one of the biggest things that I feel like will help me evolve bigger than I've already been. Because, man, if you work hard, bro, everything just fall in your lap. Man, I don't play about. And be consistent. Yeah. I don't play about Bird, man. I don't play about the South. I don't play about the way he represents the South. Jay Prince, none of the stuff that we do down here, I take it real serious, bro. Oh, for sure. So I don't, it's from here up for me. I don't do all that other stuff that everybody else trying to do. I don't clout chase. I rock with y'all. I seen y'all movement. Yeah, you watched me growing up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I ain't playing no games. I seen niggas dancing to y'all's music when they were young. I was still an old niggard in. We ain't gonna act like nothing we ain't. Yeah. That's right. Keeping it 100. And so let's get to it, man. You got a question? Yeah, I have a question. Here she goes. She got to roll down, y'all. She got one fine. She ain't playing with you niggas. Get them, baby. So when y'all split up, the question, not y'all. Okay. The question was, this question was proposed to me to ask. Okay. And it says, is signing with Young Money what's split y'all up? So let's just keep, let's tell the world, fuck you. All right, let's stop. What's going on? That's what? We had a lot of... So it wasn't signing with Young Money. It was the, it was the... It wasn't even a split up. We a group. A group. You don't even agree on everything. He didn't want to go to LA and spend 10,000 a month on rent. And, you know, spend a whole bag. Me, I'm like... Right, right. I don't care if we got a hundred thousand a piece. We in the studio. I'm a whole Texas now, bro. Even if I am signing Young Money, you feel me? That's just me. We never broke up like that. It was just like, I'ma go to LA, you stay in Dallas, or you go to Houston or whatever. And it was just like a... We just grown. And y'all do y'all thing from two different places. I would send them songs every day. We never broke up, though. Like, it was never nothing like that. It was just like, I don't want to stay in Texas right now. Nigga is hot, nigga. Come on. I don't want to stay here. I don't blame you. You want me to go? I got a question that somebody had called in to. This one, say, did... I don't think they would know that, but... Did uh... Did Soulja Boy and him steal the swag from Dallas or something? Hell no, Soulja Boy. I'm just saying that they came down here with that look doing that whole movement. My heart, Soulja Boy, Ben Hodges. I'm just saying what they asked me, bro. I'm just being real, I'm a real nigga. Soulja Ben Hodges, we was leaving elementary. When we hit seven grade Soulja Hodges, she on street. Was he hot when my Duggy came out? Soulja rapping, wait for us. Soulja was hot before Lil' Will dropped my Duggy. He helped my Duggy be my Duggy. He helped my Duggy, bro. But people don't want to give him his flowers, but you know I'm a real nigga, man. Yeah. He always talk about that. He don't give us flowers. People don't, yeah. But another question that came in, they was asking, was teaching me how to Duggy stole from Dallas? Of course. It was stolen. But it was like Borrowed. Oh, it was Borrowed. It was Borrowed type shit. You know what I'm saying? Of course. How did you? How did you? It was one more, it was one more. Oh, I got one too. Hey, but guess what? Hold on. God did. It's going to be the biggest comeback in the world, man. We've been planning and playing. This is fun. It's going down. It's going down like a goddamn crash. I love it. It's going to rain crash around this motherfucker. How did y'all get Nina Loretta on one of y'all's songs? Who? Nina Loretta. Ah, man. So me and Nina Loretta, we done bumped into each other so many times. Who? What does that mean? No, but he trolling. You say y'all bumped into each other. I'm going to stop trolling. I'm going to stop trolling. She's a married woman. That's my friend. Well, I'm just saying. No, no, no. We ain't going to get nothing mixed up. This bop's done. I'm happy you carried her. She is made out of ring on her finger. I'm happy you carried her. Happy. That's my sister. I love it. Don't y'all misconstrued or none of that. That's my. We are close. She is like my doll. That's good. I'm going to stop trolling. Yeah, they really just cool, though. OK, so how you got? She is married and happy. And I'm happy for her and her family. How did y'all link up? I've been knowing her for a few years on some studio. She, we got mutual friends. Them bumping into her a lot of times. She hang with some of the nationettes. And we just like, we. I meant her. I like her voice. Her voice is marital. She is. She is back with Boosie, actually, though. Yeah. I got a long time ago. I ain't gone kept. Mm-hmm. She hard. Yeah, she is. But yeah, shout out. My doll. Yeah, because she was supposed to come on here once a long time ago, but something happened. And she had. I'm going to bring up here for y'all. I'm going to get her delivered to y'all. Oh, OK. Oh, yeah. What? It was a. It was a. All right. You got to have a car service pick her up and drop her off. Yeah, OK. Did, um, who went the hardest in their era? Was it y'all or Mr. He did that. Mr. Why are you going to do this to me? Bro, I'm just. I love you. God did. I love you. Hey, Mr. He did that hard. That's my name. He started a lot of shit. Who went the hard? God did. Who went the hardest? I ain't going to tell you how I was mentioning that. Nobody in Dallas, bro. They just mentioned on everything I do. Nobody in Dallas, bro. Who went the hardest, bro? Who went the hardest? During those eras, y'all had two kinds of different. Mr. He did that hard. Now, Mr. He did that was first. He opened the floodgates for us. Wasn't he first? He opened up the floodgates for us. Then y'all came after us. We flooded it. I mean. So what you saying? It was y'all. At the church, Chris Riggs dropped it. He opened it up, though. That's it. It's out of the bullcrap. I'm fit to get down the bed and then. Quick, Riggs. Get down to the bed and then. Mr. He hit that whole store dancing till the Thud Boss Nation music came up. But check this out, though. They made a big hit single, though. You know what I'm saying? And then after that. Oh, now everybody know who Fooley Fame is and who the young Donny. I'm like, oh, okay, big. Okay. But he opened up the floodgates. We flooded that motherfucker. Yeah, y'all went down through it. I feel like I'm going to be real. The only reason I feel like we even surpassed all that was because him. So y'all passed him up. No, no, no. Y'all didn't pass him up. You just said something. You just said that. No, I'm saying something to do. Listen. It's easy to pass someone that ain't working. Oh, that ain't wasn't working. No. Him, Trillie, Chris Riggs was a cool. I pulled up on you. Bro, if you look at the Get Me Shit video right now. Trillie is in the fucking Get Me Shit video. I pulled up on Trillie like, man. How was he doing it? He was doing it. Yeah, I pulled up on Trillie like, y'all need to get this shit straight because this shit was big. So it's not even a competition when you and your two main rappers not even cool. So how is it even, we surpassed him because of no longer existing, of working with your team that y'all already hot. They got a song called Mr. Hit That Ho. Mr. Hit That Ho. You know what they're hitting now. He the hottest DJ in the city, bro. For real though. Let's just be one of them. He's still the hottest DJ in the city. He's still the hottest DJ in the city. He's still the hottest DJ in the city. He's still the hottest DJ in the city. He's still the hottest DJ in the city. I'm talking about the end. Y'all trying to. No, let's be real about the read. You know, the history is real. Bro, that's all he's been. I'm not saying I appreciate you, bro. I'm sorry, you can't talk about the era. It's not like I'm talking about Trillie. I'm talking about him and Trillie and Prince Rick not being cool. I never saw them niggas together after that record. Some happened. Wow. So that's what I'm saying. You talking about them three. Yes, I'm not talking about us, niggas. But I'm just trying to show you. He's still y'all, y'all act like y'all tap dancing here around the club. Who was who had the hardest movement? Bruh, it's not no, they broke up. They had one song. He said there's no competition. There was a movement, though. But they broke up, bro. We won. We said that they won. I was at Venus. I was at Venus. This one I knew was over. I was at Venus. If we had a versus between Trillie, Prince Rick, you know what I'm saying? They're my guys, though. But God did. There's no forgiveness here. Wayne hopped on their seat, walking around the club. You know what I'm saying? So it was like, I mean, that ain't that a shit, though. Don't get it twisted. OK, well. But we got, like, 25. We got, like, 20. Oh, there you go. I knew what we got. It had no competition. I'm not in competition. And we got one. But you knew this. It's like, ooh, come on. But this one's back in the past, though, so it's not even back. My first song hit, come on, y'all. But hit what? It hit a lot of places. My first song hit London. My first song hit London. OK, London. My first song hit Italy. My first song hit. So that would make you the bigger movement. I'm not the bigger. I'm working. I'm not in competition. This one. This one. I'm not in competition. No. He was a groundwork artist. But no, that's all wrong. We was an internet sensation. Let me just say this. I'm going to say this, and I want y'all to feel me on this, man. You know, when I went down to Houston, I interviewed Lil' Kiki. I interviewed a couple of ESG. And I talked to these guys about versus is between one another. I just interviewed DJ Jones. I just interviewed. I interviewed DJ Jones the other night. And I pinned him against a soft walker. I'm being real. You guys understand that it's OK to say we did this. It's a movement, guys. It's OK. Can I tell you something? Listen, it's OK to have a movement. Friendly competition only makes you stronger. Can I tell you the truth? Yeah. Ain't nobody better, nigga. Oh, dang it. Ain't nobody better, nigga. Damn. No nigga coming on with it. Ain't nobody fucking with us. Cut off his drinks. Cut off his drinks. Hey, look, so look. I didn't do a five-hour set on my mama home. Shoot me down and kill me right now. I got the gun. Is he low? So look, I didn't do a five-hour set on my mama. One hour set, Doug Boss Nation Songs. OK. Two hours of that five hours, all freestyle's. And then the rest, we just going to hit it out. We going to go from doing her to work your legs to statue down station. I'm going to be singing. Come on, man. That's what I'm talking about, man. We can start the interview, nigga. That's what I do right there, nigga. Fuck with us, dawg. You used to probably look better that way, man. But I love that we have a five-hour set for nigga's heads. And they cannot stand there like that. They can't. Five hours? No, they need to be coming over there. I'm talking about the whole works. I can perform hits from the time the venue opened to the time the venue closed. You know, I can just, that's just how talented God blessed him and me to be like. But honestly, though, I ain't right, though. Like, really, we really put in the most work in Dallas. You know what I'm saying? Shout out to the whole seat. Like, Lil' Runny, shout out my nigga Lil' Runny and Mike Fresh. They the truth, too. We got the other ass in the circle. Platinum record. You know what I'm saying? But, yeah. So, okay. So what I want to know, because you said back in the boogie era, right? Nah, there ain't no back. Okay. It's still going. It's still going. But hold on. It's still there. Hey, y'all, let me get your skid. All right, but hold on. But hold on. Okay, back when it started. Miss Ball's talk. You got him started. When it started. Okay. Dallas was more together. Now, a lot of people talk about how Dallas is separated because of all the good stuff. Because everybody want to rap and sound like Memphis. And they want to act like they from Memphis or they want to act like they from Louisiana. How can we bring the love back from when it started back then to now? You can't. They're lost. I want to. It has to be a way they can come back. Hey, I want to act like I'm from Fort Worth. You talk about, they be going hard. In Fort Worth. Yeah, man. We try to be the same. Well, we try to bring Texas together. It's not a Dallas. It's not a Houston. It's not, it's just all Texas. It's a Texas. And that's hard. That's real. That's why I just said Fort Worth. Because I don't want that to forget. I'm going to be real with you, man. We can't forget Fort Worth. I opened this platform up. Fort Worth came over here and I seen talent like no other place, bro. I'm serious. I'm serious. For real. And so I can't set up and act like these people don't. We all in the same melting pot. And I'm telling you, even in Houston, like I came into this game as Boss Talk. And I did a show and I brought East Texas. Cash was there. I bought Houston and I bought Dallas to the same place to perform all of them together when Boss Talk came on the scene. I really do value trying to bring this, all of this stuff together, man. We need to stop trying to figure out a way to say we the man or whatever without saying all us is the man, period. And y'all dope, dope as hell. One of the dopest groups, period. We in the South, man. And at the end of the day, ain't nobody, you know, Breakfast Club ain't really calling niggas down here like they should. Y'all didn't want to hear that. See, we got to call each other out. That's why I told y'all about Bird Man a while ago. And I really, I can't. You see how they disrespect the Bird Man on Breakfast Club? They do that purposely. No, it wouldn't happen. No, no, but I'm not just, listen. Yes, sir. Not just them. Period. We got to, if we don't think big about ourselves, who going to think big about ourselves? But you know what I think too, man? I think music, music is the thing that can bring people apart, but it can also bring people together. And when you think about the older, the younger, or even all y'all together, just having people work together on the same track, having people work together to show unity through the music. And I think that can bring people together, because even though you have the older people like Don Chief and you know, Mr. Luchy, Mr. Pukin, all of that. And I want to see. Oh, can I say something about that? Hold on, hold on. We're going to get into that. Yeah, we're going to get into that. Okay, I can't put this out. But you know, I wish they would hop on songs with some of these hot, younger people to bridge the gap and show unity and show that, okay, not to say mentorship, but they've been in the business for a long time. They've been in the business. So they have information they can share with the people who, you know, just coming up and hot. You know, Mr. Luchy, he got an artist right now on the radio from Dallas. You feel me? He invested into my little homie, little Q 300, 900. But uh, yeah, with 900, right? 900. I already, yeah. But like I'm saying, like, what you doing there, Mr. Luchy? I respect that right there. Got my nigga right there. Yeah. Shout out to Mr. Luchy, man. And that's what a lot of people need to do. Shout out to Gang Lane, Luchy. So what you was wanting to ask about that? Yeah, you were about to jump on Don Chief. He came here and Don Chief did an epic interview. I got something to say about it. Hold on, let me say it. Let me, hold on. And let me say, not only Don Chief, Sean Cotney came here also and did an epic interview. Sean Cotney did not come here. Well, yes. He's been here twice. But I'm telling you, these interviews, really, Sean came on and he spoke. And then Don Chief came on and he spoke. So, and I think you need to go watch both interviews before you make judgment on one, really. But if you want to make judgment, you do what you're going to do. I'm going to make judgment. Did you watch both of them? Yeah, I did, bro. I saw Sean Cotney. Did you watch both of them? I saw Sean Cotney and I saw Clifford. Boom. Okay, now you can go ahead. So what I'm saying is, I just Chief, listen, bro. Let me tell you, because I'm from Dallas. Ain't nobody going to say what I'm going to say. Listen, man, you can't look miserable in these streets. You got to let these people, if they don't want to post your shit, don't force it. Drop them hits. See, what's wrong with us Dallas people? We want to acknowledge me, but we don't put the work in. You get what I'm saying? Like, I'm not saying he ain't working, but we ain't hearing the motion. You get what I'm saying? You can't be mad at Sean Cotney. He's in Florida. He's around the world. I fuck with Sean. That's my dog. I don't care what nobody say. He's having motion. He's not hearing Big Chief on this game. He's not hearing Big Chief in North Carolina. He's not hearing Big Chief. Well, he's in, you get what I'm saying? So you can't be mad. Just get your paper. It's like, you getting mad because the nigga got money. No, get your paper up. And y'all go to the table together. Sit down and figure some shit out. That's all I'm saying. So representing Dallas, you got to represent. Because I've been playing a whole interview. Like, we have fun. Like, this is fun. Like, you know, we have fun. But this is real right here, right? So if you're going to look like that on camera, it looks miserable. Just from the outside looking. I haven't seen Big Chief in a long time. I saw him in Lancaster, like, three, four, five years ago, a long time. I was going to get a haircut before a show. So it's like, just don't look miserable. Don't make nobody that don't want to post your shit. Post your shit. And just, nigga, put out the hits. I'm in the studio 24 hours. Do you double down on the same thing that he said? Do you agree with him? Hey, man, yeah. I mean, Big Chief is a legend, you know what I'm saying? He's just really just been, you know, out the picture for a while, trying to let people do what they really been doing, man. And I respect that. Because Don Chief got songs with Rick Ross Bird, man. You name it, he got it. But guess what? Fame, right, though. Okay. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I think, like I said, it was a big deal. I mean, when you look at Chief, Chief definitely killed the streets. And now Chief, but Chief is doing media runs right now. Shout out to, I think he just did a mogul media. He's doing, he's making his run. And one thing I don't do is put somebody in a box. Hopefully he's able to bring and erupt his career into a situation to where people can understand how you're running. Because he ain't too old. The internet gives you a little leeway on your age and all that really. And in that bullshit, all this is. I'm talking about far as the way the music is flowing. It's not like that, no. I'm going to be honest. Let me just, let me just say it, let me say it. When he did the interview on my show and I started putting his interview out and I started posting some of his music, a lot of them come and say, we went listening to your music and we love that music, bro. You can't deny the fact that the dude music was street ready. Let's see. No, for sure. I'm saying if a nigga go listen to that music right now and he a street nigga, he riding with that. What I'm saying is you just can't look. Man, this is for all my Dallas artists. It's not for chief because I love you. Anybody from Dallas, I love you. If you're from Dallas, I love you. But just don't look miserable on the camera and put in that work and drop music. That's it. Everything goes on. If your music trash, your music trash, my nigga, no matter what you do or say, if a nigga going to support it, he going to support it. If he not going to support it, he not going to support it. But all you can do is keep your head up, keep fighting, keep swinging, keep dropping shit. Like that's it, bro. And besides that, it's up. Let me ask you this. Did you guys ever link up with mode three any time when he was living? No, we used to see him on planes. We see him on a lot of planes, like leaving shows, leaving Atlanta. Like he'll be on the same plane as us and we'll chop it up. We'll chop it up. Mode three used to be with me and Onyx. Y'all remember Onyx? Hell yeah. Yeah, me and mode three, we performed in the club. Onyx a few times, you know what I'm saying? Back when fame was in LA, I performed up there. He saw me. We didn't really say too much to each other because shit, I was with Yella that night actually. But yeah, I saw him. Yeah, he legit though. Okay. I'm saying risk to soul. How much do you think his death, do you think it hurt the city when he passed? Oh man, that was a big impact. He hurt it. That hurt a lot of people, you know. A lot of people, man. That was crazy. But that ain't my place to really speak on that. But you know, yeah, that hurt something. Yeah, I was out of town. I was just thinking about it music wise, you know. Oh yeah, his music. Man, his music. Because you're in the music industry and you know, so you know how much impact it had on music. Yeah, his music was hard for real though. Do you think that, because when that whole era started, because that was kind of after you guys, right? Go Yeyo was one of the main contributors to that whole wave coming in. Did you guys ever see him or do anything with Go Yeyo? Yeah, we got songs with Go Yeyo. Yeah, we got songs with Go Yeyo. I ain't gonna lie, he the first dude from Fort Worth, no lie, he the first dude from Fort Worth. Pull up to Dallas. Come to our session. Yeah, for real though. Hop on the song. Fuck, like, and at that point, at that moment when he came, he was the hottest in the streets. He didn't have to, you know what I mean? He could have been like, fuck that shit. But like, we was lit still, like we still in the studio working, still on our shit. So, but he came. He came, he was the hottest in Texas. Did a verse, did a song. So, I ain't even told all my other partners from Fort Worth, like, man, that nigga pulled up on me, bro. Like, he pulled up and show respect too. We pulled some drink. It was one of them days. I know Go Yeyo, he had an era. Sololuchi had an era as well. He was trying to tell them about Sololuchi. They be like, who was Sololuchi? I'm like, you never heard of Sololuchi? You don't know Sololuchi fully? Yeah, I know Sololuchi. Where he from? Tell them. He straight out of Fort Worth, bro. Yeah, I mean, so I'm just saying there's a lot of people that did a lot of stuff around here. But I hear when people say that's their era. It makes it sound like they're dead. Not dead as in like, literally dead, but I'm talking like career wise. You know what I mean? I don't like that because that doesn't mean that they're not working to come, you know, relevant again. Well, he got songs with Chris Brown. He got songs with R. Kelly and him. He got a whole album, man. Sololuchi still has. He got a song with R. Kelly, bro. You know, the thing is, I'm just saying, there's been a lot of... Wrote for R. Kelly, bro. Come on, then. Exactly. But I'm just saying he's definitely done his thing. So I gotta give him roses. We should talk about R. Kelly that much, though. Why not? What's going on, though? It's political. Who else you have a song with? What are you talking about? Bro, and I love R. Nigga, I grew up to TP12. Nigga, that shit hurt. Nigga, I'm jamming R. Kelly, nigga. Oh, no. You know, I got a question. Because going back to relevancy and stuff like that, the industry that we're in right now, I think it's more of a branding more than you're just in music. Because you notice a lot of musicians are moving into movies now, film. Are y'all have anything coming? I'm glad you said that. Yeah, you know, we about to drop this documentary, man. The hottest documentary, man. Got a... I'm glad you said that. DOOM. DOOM. That's how I'm doing next year. That's how I'm doing next year. One of the first arena shows. DOOM. It's telling our whole story. Like, the documentary is crazy. We've been getting like people... It's already filming? Yes, I'm gonna drop it on her. My whole career. So when is that gonna... I'm gonna drop it on her. It's getting put together like, that bitch's gonna be big like Kanye's. Yeah, I'm gonna drop it on you, too. That bitch's gonna be big. On YouTube first? But it's streaming on Netflix, though. Yes, it is. It's a young nation documentary. It is, like, five episodes. Y'all got to connect to get it on Netflix? What? Man, come on, man. I've been in LA, man. He gonna make sure that that's on that bro. Nigga fame is dripping hard in there, but... What? Nigga, we've been on that. It's me, though. I like it. We love it. We love it. It needs to go big, big, like cinema, too. Hey, top three artists of all time did or live. Both of y'all, but I want you first. Any genre. Top three artists of all time did or live. Number one. Lil Wayne. Number two. Lil Wayne. No. I'm gonna... I'm gonna hold for a second. I'm the greatest ever to touch a microphone for what y'all talk about. Let's go. Number two. Number one. Number two. Number two. Oh. It can be me. All right. You know what I'm saying? You gotta put the nation in two. Number two. Number three. I'm gonna be honest. This is this kind of off. Any genre. Any genre.

Number two. We're gonna run with uh... Let's see... Eminem. Number three. You're a nation. Wow. At least we got one from the side. I got a question. What y'all thought about PMC? I don't like you no more but it's cool. What y'all thought about PMC? Damn. My birthday on the same... The day after PMC. Damn. December 30th. I'm December 31st. We're the same person down there. You know what? Everybody hate Pimp. Everybody hate Fully. You know what man? Everybody hate Pimp. Everybody... And guess what? I don't give a fuck. But the thing is Pimp represented the South 100. 100 percent. I'm just asking. Come on man. We got Pimp here. I know. We be Pimp. Come on. If you picked Eminem while ago as one of your favorite rappers... But uh... Hold on. Hold on. Let me say it. Okay. Don't take it to the South. It ain't gonna take it. You had a chance to take to the South. Listen. If you had to pick... If Pimp C was still living today and Eminem was in the studio and he went to this studio. Hold on. And Pimp went to this studio. Who makes the hardest song? Pimp C. Yes sir. Sad Butler that is. Okay. I'm just asking. Because I know how to bring it all the way out. You know what I'm saying? I didn't say Jay-Z for no reason. I said because he was the first one to come my way and fuck the UGK. But that don't make him the best. Nigga, we ain't doing that way before Jay-Z came down here. Don't even play us like that. Hey, don't play with Jay though. What? Jay ain't from the South? No, don't play with Jay. Don't play with Jay. Don't play with Pimp. Right, right. Don't play with Pimp. Yeah, he didn't play with Pimp. He didn't play with that video shoot. He didn't play with Pimp. What? Did Pimp C go to that video shoot? He went to. He didn't have to. He had already made a few... It was the best thing for his career. Listen. Pimp was sipping like I be trippin'. No, I wasn't. What? Ridin' dirty. We were good ridin' dirty. That's what I was sayin'. We could have gathered to the South. Nigga still gettin' money. And I'm gonna be real with you. Nigga gettin' money. We made a girl from Houston. Okay, bro. They were our respect, Jay-Z. Say that again. I respect the whole community. That's what's wrong with us too, Houston. That's the only reason I be giving him his flowers. All I'm sayin' is that I ain't remember who you are. That's all I'm sayin'. I'm gonna come and stick with what I know. I'm gonna be real with you when y'all are a little younger than me. But when I was listenin' to music, I was listenin' to Pimp. Before all of this. That'd be hateful. I don't know what happened. No, for some reason. But what I'm sayin' is... You ain't no Slim Sadie. Who? Jay-Z. No, not you. Not you. Not you. Jay-Z made Pimp. No, Jay-Z ain't made no Pimp. Jay-Z ain't made no Pimp, my nigga. I said that in the beginning. He said he didn't. Jay-Z didn't make no Pimp see now. Jay-Z ain't made no Pimp see, bro. I don't give a damn. Wait, let me just say it. Let me say this. Let me say this before you go there, bro. You a little era up. I'm gonna say LL. I'm gonna say LL. Big Daddy Kane. I'm gonna say music. You said I'm sayin' it. And then they put Pimp see on the song. No, what I'm sayin' is... And then they put Pimp see on the song. And then they put... Hell no! Let me ask you this. Jay-Z didn't have to. Jay-Z didn't have to. Let me ask you this. Let me ask you this. You a real nigga. Let me ask you this. Let me ask you this. Let me ask you this. New Pimp see, is he a starving artist if you don't do a song with Jay? No, but it helps. Okay, and let me ask you this. And then he starts to do the song with you. Why y'all talking and running your mouth? I still... I'm scarred face back over here. Because I'll be real with you. Y'all playing games. We really. You know what I'm saying? Y'all playing games. Y'all want to be from the East Coast, pull one leg up, nigga, and go get your three dice. Because you dealing with the wrong nigga over here. Right, right. I'm a Southern nigga. They listen to Southern music. Now it's the beat. I'm gonna be real. Stop playing games. I'm gonna be real with y'all. I'm gonna be real with y'all. I'm gonna be real with y'all. I'm gonna be real with y'all. I'm gonna be real with y'all. Stop playing games. You could talk over me all day. No you're probably doing worse than me. You are the worst. So listen, this is what I'm saying. Let me talk. Let me speak. Don't cut me off. Respect me. Oh, God. So listen, bro. This is what I got to say about it. New York is the mecca of hip-hop, right? No listen. The face don't. New York is lit. Jay-Z didn't have to reach to PMC. Oh, let him, let him come. Jay-Z didn't have to reach to PMC. It's a lot of artists. Name one artist in New York that reached out to PMC and UGK. Name one artist that did that. Nobody did that. Jay-Z broke the code. You have to respect that. He put Texas, he respected our wave in New York. Now listen, I looked at the letter in New York. In New York, their thing is New York. You know what I mean? They don't give a fuck about nobody else. Let me say this. It's New York Russia, everybody. It don't matter what you say, listen, let me stop. Let me talk. I go right back to Scarface. You cannot get around Scarface in the time you had. Before Jay-Z ever was even doing all that he was doing, Scarface was making hits with Tupac and everybody else. And guess who the realest nigga on earth? You know who? Guess who the realest nigga on earth? Scarface's son, he got a nigga along. Here you go, pops. I like that, that's real. But I'm just saying, don't tiptoe around Scarface in the ghetto boy's movement. No, for sure. Even Jay-Z will tell you about that movement. I know, but Jay-Z is a real nigga. You know what I'm saying? Jay-Z made some money, but Kanye made more. Easy. What's that longer kidney? I thought it was a kidney. You heard that, didn't you? I did. I did hear that, I heard that. Jay-Z made a little money. You had to get it. Jay-Z made a little money, Kanye made six times more. Yeah, he did. He didn't hear that. No, I didn't. He didn't hear that. If I redid my top three, Jay-Z, Master P, and then Slim Shady. Yeah, because he forgot about Master P. I forgot, I forgot. He forgot about Master P. No, I'm back to Master Main. Bro, let me tell you something, man. We in Texas, bro, if you ever, ever go up to New York and you get an interview, send me back the, I won't see the footage, how they treated you with so much love. And yeah, that's the way it's supposed to be. Cause we're trying to come together. No, for sure. In New York, I would have been a bug rush there. What? I was like, what you say about Monday? No, I'm just saying, y'all got to definitely, you just got to know where you at, bro. Man, come on, bro. Y'all got to do y'all just, if to be honest with you, man, there's a lot of work that need to be done with self-healing in the South. I see it, bro. Man, we through coming back from LA to come in here. I mean, just be real. Can I be real with us? Yeah, be real. Can I be real with us? Like I was telling BigT, we just look miserable sometimes. It's from the outside looking in though. It's not from the inside looking out. You ain't talking about just Dallas? Just some people in Dallas to win the day even. You ain't talking about Houston. Hell, no, Houston, no. Some niggas in Houston be like... No, you ain't talking about Houston. Houston could care less, they like on another planet. They don't play these games. They don't play these games. They don't play these games. They don't play these games. Period. They don't play these games. You're not going to go down that pop trunk on you, nigga, and laugh at you if you from somewhere else. They don't give a damn. It gets what they... They got their own culture, their own way of doing things. They could care less about that... I feel you, but what I'm saying is... No way else. When you come to Houston, there's a certain field you get, and the people respect you for what you're doing. Not for real, bro. So don't play yourself. You know what I'm saying? We got to do better far as a whole. Long, Texas are coming together and supporting each other. Period. Well, let's talk businesses. Let's talk success. Okay, let's go.
