Man, defamation of what? Defamation of character, man. Man, how the hell you got... What's going on, man? Man, the streets didn't do me no justice, man. You know? They go off of what they see instead of what they know. You know what I'm saying? I mean, last time you was here... I mean, you know, you dropped me a 16. I'll never forget it, man. I remember last time you was here, you wrote with me. You told me what restaurants to go out to, but you never did. You sent me nothing back. You know, like a coupon to say, hey, go over there. Pay for it! So how you been, man? Look like you done been in the jail, man. What's going on? Ah, man. I had to take a little time to get myself together, man. You know how it be. I'm gonna try to get myself together. Hell, I'm over here looking like I done ate one of me, nigga, around this whole man. Shit. That man, nigga, eat good. Yeah, man. So what's been going on? Like, with this project right here, what do you expect? I mean, like I said, I'm just giving them Jose. You know what I'm saying? I took time off. You know what I'm saying? I listen to everybody. I supported everybody's shit. You know what I'm saying? Just to see how they would come. You know what I'm saying? And I came back hard all the way live. Wow. In the streets. So, I mean, you got features on this one? Nah. I wanted to give them me. You know what I'm saying? I put my evil twin on her. I got a evil twin that's coming up in the streets. You know what I'm saying? Youngster, he one of the hardest niggas in the streets. You know what I'm saying? But I wanted to give him, like I said, I wanted to give him that authentic and this was my definition of character. Yeah. What's the youngster name, man? Isn't that Street Classic Deuce? You know what I'm saying? Deuce, say. Okay. You know what I'm saying? So, this youngster right here, what made you put him on there? Because that's a big deal, man, because you feel to put them spotlight on that boy. Yeah, man. Like I say, shit. You know, we try to shine that light. You know what I'm saying? We're going to shine that light on the people that don't get it. You know what I'm saying? Like I said, I represent the have nots. You know what I'm saying? So, I'm going to put the light on the people that don't get to get light shed on them. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. What do you think about the music like right now? And I asked this to all y'all on the panel, man. Like, what do you think about the music right now so far in the Dallas area? Like, because it's, big extra plug they talk about, you know, of course, yellow. That yellow, I don't even rate him in here because he already been around so long. I hate to say that, but that, you know what I'm saying? He had known artists throughout the world. What's up with the new? What's up with the new guys? Like, what are you guys, what are you guys seeing that y'all think I got to know that this boy is the one, you know, all these boys is the one or such and such over here. And I do that because that way I'll be watching them too to be honest with you. Right, right, right. I mean, I look at it like this, like it ain't going to never be shit if we don't support each other. You know what I'm saying? If we don't support each other, it ain't going to never be shit. Like Dallas got to get behind Dallas. You know what I'm saying? We ain't nothing wrong with showing love everywhere else, but we got to get behind our own. You know what I'm saying? And that's where we going off. So that's why people kind of feel like the Dallas scene is falling, but they ain't listening. You know what I'm saying? It starts with the fans. You know what I'm saying? Not calling it, saying it like that, but it starts with the consumer. No, I get it. I get it. I think it starts with the fans. What do you think, my boy? Well, you know, just right now it's just, you know what I'm saying? Anybody that's out there grinding and they got this shit going good, you're going to pop out and you're going to see them. You know what I'm saying? It's wide open for the takin' right now for as far as new orders. You know what I'm saying? Get in where you fit in and that shit going to happen for you. No, I get it, man. That's real. What's up, Scooter Max? Shit, what's up, baby? I mean, when you look at where the music is now versus where it used to be and how the game first came up, what do you think, you know, what's the big difference, you know, from that old day to this new day? Shit, the old day, shit. Niggas, they were doing their thing, but the games was a little different. They had to grind a little bit harder. But it was hand-to-hand. Yeah. It was tangible. Now you got the internet now. I don't know. I think niggas really ain't working. Like, these new niggas, man, to me, like, I think a nigga should have something to give a nigga. Yeah. Because I think that causes a nigga to, you know what I'm saying? Locking in, being real. Back in the game, it was more of a tangible market because you had CDs and things of that nature and you couldn't reach nobody but who you was in front of, you know what I'm saying? If you had to travel to reach people, you know what I'm saying? And you had these consumer markets that was right here in front of your surrounding areas but now with the internet, you were a Y. Everybody can see you at one time, you know what I'm saying? So that was the difference. I agree. So you had to be a grinder back then, you know what I'm saying? You had to be a good salesman. You had to be a grinder. You had to have something to get at these folks for free if they didn't want to buy your CD. You know what I'm saying? So it was more of like in-your-face type of shit then but now it's like, you know, you just have to have your marketing strategies good on the internet. See, we had to spend money on shit back then. You had to spend money on shit now too but you had to buy your CDs, flyers, posters, you know what I'm saying? You had to... CD burners? Yeah, all that type of shit. Yeah, the more fake barcodes y'all was doing. I know about you niggas. I heard about the niggas. The more fake barcodes scared the niggas back in the day. I remember that, bro. Damn, those niggas that did that. We was out there, though. We was out there. Let me say, no, fans. We was out there. We was out there. We was out there. We was out there. We had promo vans and all that shit. Yeah, for real. I ain't even driving to Kansas. Yeah. I had a phone with you. I seen Grifter. I don't know. Them stickers that day. I think it was the Grifter. They had a bunch of stickers and shit too. Everywhere. Yeah, they did that thing but shit, niggas ain't that PMG. Oh, whoa! We playing. Niggas remember that street grind, man? Yeah. We was all in Oak Cliff. All in North Dallas. Everywhere. All everywhere, man. All out of the state. Every cornerstone. Yeah, yeah. With 16 or 18 songs, four minutes and five minutes long, I like y'all new wave. Two minutes, get it on water. Boom, bam. Yeah. That's what a young niggas do it. That's one of the 316s. You know what I'm saying? Eight boy hooks, 316s, four minutes, five minutes songs. I think nowadays it kind of just allows motherfuckers to cheat the system. You know what I'm saying? They ain't got to really wrap that long. You know what I'm saying? And with motherfuckers not being able to wrap that long, they got to make a catchy hook. You know what I'm saying? It kind of ran away from the lyrical side of the rap kind. It did. Yeah. It did. Yeah, man. I had that boy, and I got a man, that boy Timo came in there. He came thinking of a lot of stuff. I ain't never heard nobody really just mentally go there constantly. I'm like, what the hell, what he got up in that thing? You know what I'm saying? Yeah. So it's like these niggas, them New York style niggas, or the Southern niggas that do the battle rap type stuff. Yeah. That's what them niggas do. But then I like, there's a different type do like that bounce, or either that, or that music. Like did you have a club bang on this one? Or do you know, a strip club bang on this one? I mean, I wouldn't, all my music is really for the streets. Okay. And it's for the people that, that's after putting a different type of grind in every day. You know what I'm saying? I'm giving them something to ride to. But it's so, it's so me that you can jam it in the club too. You know what I'm saying? I got a record on there in particularly for women though. It's called pat me down. I think that's going to be a hot, hot tiktok record. You know what I'm saying? For the females, get them something to dance to. Mm hmm. It's called what? It's called pat me down. Pat me down. I feel like that chick list, he got one called chick list. You like that one? That's pretty much some shit that you'll play in the club where you can ride to. See with Bodega man, he kind of, he could do club records. It'd be like shit that you could listen to in the club, but it's not specifically for the club, but it's like, it can make that shit. I like it. I like it. So you can take it out in the club on mouth. Oh yeah, mouth for sure. It's something to leave in the dick. Yeah, what, so when you came out with this, how many visuals do you and Vision do it on this project? I'm going to do like six visuals. You know what I'm saying? Probably seven. Just give or take. But I'm going to, I'm going to really shine a light on the songs that's like closer to the end though. I'm going to start off with the hot records. Then those last three to four going to be the ones at the end that people might not have got to listen to. You know what I'm saying? What, like outside of like the Dallas area, what area do you like to go to as well when you, you know, you got another, I know Dallas is your home market, but where else do you like to just like I'm going to go down here to such and such and I'm going to throw some dust on it over here. Like if you're going to go to San Antonio. San Antonio? You know what I'm saying? Atlanta. I think, you know what I'm saying? They love my vibe in Atlanta. You know what I'm saying? Miami. Yeah. Like I say, it's Bodega. You know what I'm saying? It ain't made for one specific area. That's why I call myself Bodega. It's made for everywhere. I'm tripping off what made, Disney could say everywhere. Everywhere. So you ever go out like out of town and do the visuals for them? Like maybe Vegas or out to Miami? I, I hadn't ever shot a video actually out of town, but you know, like we network all over. Yeah, I know. Do a lot of networking in LA. You know what I'm saying? They hear my shit and they go crazy. I like that. I mean, that's what I be because I, you know, I know that's one of my pet peeves. Like, it's DSLRs and video, you know, all type of Komodo cameras, all type of stuff going on. We know this man. Like, why, why is it you think like that a lot of time, people just keep it home. They don't go other places and shoot videos just all the time. Well, a lot of times it'd be the finances. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, but you niggas ain't broke. Don't come in with that. I'm not trying to hear that. I'm talking about you, nigga. You said, you said people though. Yeah. You like, why wouldn't you go out because I know you got the resources. Why wouldn't you go do it in Cali? Why wouldn't you go do it in Miami? Why would you go do it in, let me say somewhere else like you could do it anywhere. I mean, it don't, it ain't necessarily that I can't do it. I just really be on some, I'll be moving around though. You know what I'm saying? I'm still doing a lot of different shit every day, so I gotta be worth the money. I can't start too far away from the paycheck. I just think that you got a lot to offer and I think for me, for me now, I'm not, but I just know that if you hitting these cities and doing these things, it's just other people going to get traction from seeing you go do these. You know, if you decide to go to Memphis and do one and show love to Memphis, that's what I was saying, man, like it's so many other people that look like us that's in these cities that will love us back if we show them love. I really believe that. But I understand, you know, I've been around the world, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying? I understand. I understand, you know, like, yeah, nigga couldn't back in the day. Nah, I mean, in-house resources that's very lucrative here in the city. Okay. You could use, you know what I'm saying? And it'd just be easier to knock out a lot of time, but shit, we don't have that boy anywhere you want to go. If you say you want to shoot here, man, we want to shoot here. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? He just ain't shooting here. He's not trying to go nowhere else because you got to drag this nigga out here. He's not leaving like that. No, he ain't going to go out and drink, man. I'm going to do it in front of such a son. Nah, for sure. God, they love you. You know what I'm saying? Hard to get away from a place like, you go in the hood, like the hood's throw the nigga like, man, that's where I be at. But see, I also want people to know that I ain't one of them motherfuckers that's going to get on and run away from my place. You know what I'm saying? I'm not going to run away. We know that. Because the problem, we got problems out here that need to be fixed. So I ain't that nigga that's going to make it better. I definitely agree. Let's conquer home first. Y'all already conquered home. I mean like, ain't nobody did a lot of stuff that y'all done did. PMG, FACTS. They done did a lot of stuff in Dallas. FACTS? Ain't no line of getting around that nigga. You know what I'm saying? No, I don't want to take it all. You don't think? One thing I learned though. Scooter bags that he want everything. What was it like? We was in L.A. Who was that producer that we was talking to? With Dallas Martin and that producer. The one that I was playing the music for that one time. What's his name? Where he was from? We was in L.A. Dallas and Martin in the studio. Maybe some of the producers come through there man. He will make a long story short. He was telling me like you can be in from Texas. Like, you can go platinum by just having Texas behind you. I already know that for sure. I'm saying if you work in Texas like that you definitely I think LeFlip showed us that too first. LeFlip also didn't have the internet at the time. Exactly. You know what I'm saying? You immediately cross all state border lines once you become a good name. Nowadays because the internet you know what I'm saying? You immediately cross that line to get your traction. I think like I said I think it's who produced a lot on this song. On this project. Monster. I was fucking with Bud Beats. Okay. I'm saying a lot of monster tracks, a lot of Bud Beats. Shout out Bud Beats. He was over here the other night. Yeah, that's my boy man. You know we they just keep it funky for me. Like I said it be the baseline most of the time for me. You know what I'm saying? So I be having to go out there like I because I'm not necessarily flowing at the same pace as other people because I'm stacking my bars. Okay. Okay. You got some Ziggie on there too you got most of the time. Yeah, I was just finish like that. And little bro and that's really he the next he gonna be hot as anybody if you ask me. Ziggie he young you know what I'm saying? And he just building up like a house. You know what I'm saying? Brick on brick and in a minute he gonna be the hottest cat around facts. You know what I'm saying? Actually one of my records that I'm gonna push from the album is from Ziggie. Damn. It's called Checklist. That's real. That's real. And do you feel like you feel like this thing when it hit? You know you gonna be ready to get out there and you know market it I'm going crazy this time. You know what I'm saying? Really load on load ain't gonna have another way. He ain't gonna have another way. That's bro. That's bro. How is it how is it getting prepared for what you about to face when you go a project dealing with loaded. He gonna make sure the boxes be checked. He gonna send your ass back to the board. That's bro. He always been like that. Damn. I mean you know but it's all of it though. It's all of it. Say man if you don't do this shit right why don't you do it at all? I agree. I agree. So I mean like you said he always been like that. Let's tap into you one time. You know like when you guys first started a PMG you know you guys was how did just give me a run down of what happened. Tell them how this started bro. Man shit I had me a spot. That's how it really started. My partner had studio next door. Okay. I used to go over there to the studio all the time. They were jamming low. I was like shit who was that? That's low. Bro right there. So I really was a fan at first. So I had a problem I said bro what that door with y'all where? It was kind of a shake. I said come on shit I put that bread behind you baby let's go. So you seen it in me. Yes sir. You didn't mind putting the bread up to any body. Yes sir. That's a little facts. So how was that for you like making that initial step to say I'm going to work with Scooter Mac and not you guys didn't know did y'all know each other before? No we didn't know each other. So what did you think when he came at you about that? Well you know I was seeing about a couple of times you know what I'm saying it wasn't just the first time it was like you know what I'm saying a few times you know what I'm saying and then he just come come back like God damn this shit jamming this shit jamming bro what we doing? So shit I had nothing going because I couldn't get signed by nobody else started my own label. And then shit and then it just came by and we just you know what I'm saying started this shit and he put the put the bread up so he came co-partners with me. So PMG started what year was that about O-Fo? O-Fo? Yes sir. Yeah. Damn. This family bro. Yeah. Yeah. And PMG what does this stand for give it to me? Well we initially started out it was profit money gooders. Since you know what I'm saying I say probably about 2015-16 we kind of went a little bit more corporate with it and made it profit music group. Yeah. That's dope. That's dope. So and so you guys start this label you didn't know how to start no label but how did you you you you trading in a dark place. See I'm interviewing now but they go I'm interviewing them now. So you're going into a place where you have never been before right? Yeah. So how do you say when was the time when being independent just wasn't that popular? I was looking at I was looking at labels that was already here like the Rappelites, the Swab houses you know what I'm saying and you know we had people in the city doing independent things you had RIP 24K. Okay. And he had real real records you know what I'm saying and you know my partner from I can't say my partner he OG from the hood said Buster and got with his guy named Thurman Patterson and they started to turn to life records which put out my nigga man. So you know I was studying just studying the people around me man you know what I'm saying and found out what I need to do and you know shit man in school we got together we got the DBAs and the LLCs and you know shit just went in from there like 04, 05. 04, 05 and that's crazy man like and when he did he come back to you because you the entrepreneur around here you running things from that angle you like okay nigga and then you know so y'all was together like we got to get this we got to get that you were telling me we got to get this or he may come up with something but did you reach out to any other label owners just to try to get an understanding or did you have anybody that you could we had a whole bunch of trial and error that's what I thought early on like I said it's the CD era you know it's not the streaming era so we had we was dealing with Nielson Trump did you did you have a link in with capital bomb or capital bomb draw low pay a diamondy y'all were pushing through them niggas y'all y'all knew the charm cause you got niggas coming from out of town going to these niggas too you know what I'm saying that's why everybody certainly we just didn't wait on that niggas too though we went we went in the streets of course that was I treated the shit like a job and we had everybody our young niggas they had them at you had to pay them too though yeah they got to go out there for nothing they had their own projects they got to pay them for their own projects so they pushing their shit yeah who the hardest nigga to go out there and market for you back in day get that niggas shot out big boy yeah sir I shot out my boy big boy man that's history man PMG man but I got to put young Cove in there too call you a man sir yeah young Cove was in there too he was a bad motherfucker gonna send them CD damn so y'all come in the game early nigga I just had Julia Beverly on here nigga y'all y'all y'all didn't ever get to go to the old zone y'all y'all didn't think y'all didn't even think about the old zone we did the old zone yeah screw this we went hey we went to the old zone I was trying to get some money I read that you were round the house it was real easy I was trying to get some money I was saying you didn't even went and leave see why a nigga don't leave I know what time it is it was time say oh no we drove out the BET Awards from Dallas to Cali. Really? Yeah, yeah. We stayed in Cali for like a month. We went all over the state. Went to the Bay, did everything, man. We was really, really grinding and putting the shit down for this PMG flag. Who was the first, other than yourself, who was the next artist that you guys brought on board? We had TRP. That was a group top ranked profiteers. Okay. Kobe. Kobe the one you knew. Kobe is his little brother. That's my little brother. We're hard. Yeah, yeah. That was y'all doing this, bro. So you had Kobe. Snoop. Snoop Monstro, which we call it PMG Monstro right now. And Yellow Bees. And Yellow Bees. And Yellow Bees. What year was that? It was old four. Oh, four. That long ago. Yellow was like 13. 13, Kobe by 14. Snoop by 15. 16. 16, yeah. Did you hear the story when Luchi told it on here that he... I didn't ever heard that story before. That's your current... That was crazy, wasn't it? Yeah, and that was right before we... Y'all tapped into him. Yeah. Because he was like about 12 when his dad first died. Yeah, and that's when he say he was asked to come over there. So, I mean, you know, I was like, dang, because he broke that down to him and I just didn't even... I didn't even know he knew him like that. I talked to Luchi. Well, see, and it was crazy, too, because Luchi was on my first album. Okay. You know what I'm saying? He was on my first and my last album. So around that time, me and Luchi was dealing with each other, but he probably didn't know Yellow was out of broke. Yeah, he didn't even know. Because he was so young. Yeah, yeah. You know what I'm saying? He was young, too. He said something to him about it, but he probably just didn't register. But yeah, back then, I seen that, I seen that she didn't lose you. I talked to Luchi right after I said it. You did? Yeah, yeah. I'm like, bro, I didn't even know that she... That was crazy, too, because, you know, one thing you got to understand, man, is Ken wasn't on that boy's shit. That's what he said, son. She ain't never been on that boy's shit. Never been. Tell her school to tell her school how she was. Say, I'm the only person she would let Yellow go with. She wouldn't let that nigga go with no one. No. And I had to bring him back home. Yeah. And she didn't play about it. And he couldn't cuss in his raps back then. He couldn't do none of that. Couldn't cuss. Just came up and played no games. So he started out 13 years old rapping with y'all? Yes, sir. 13? Yeah. 13. Man, y'all niggas lived a hell of a... Little squeaky-ass boys. Y'all put that work in. Big ol' heirs. Little squeaky boys, boy, but that nigga got something, boy. And then he stood tall in the mic, even as a young nigga. Even as a young nigga. And he knew he was always a little flashy, little nigga. He was trying to make a scene like this. He was just holding up. I knew he was gonna be held. You know, I had a story that came on here. GutterTV told a story like that. He said that when he see Two Chain doing certain things, he know already that when the nigga didn't really have nothing, he made it look so pale. Like he just had everything. So he said when he see him doing the fly stuff, he know already it's a whole other level because he don't, you know, and I get it when you saying the nigga always has something going where you knew, hey, I'm that guy. The yellow man in the PMG stunner. That's what he's saying. Say, I knew little bro, I always be held though. Yeah. I knew it. You knew it. I knew it. He wasn't trying to hear it. Nah, nah. And you were cool with it too. You loved it. You were saying back like, yeah, they really got us one. That's hard. But all of them was like that though. Yeah. You see, just the other young niggas went to jail. You know what I'm saying? How old was them when they went to jail? Yeah, they were young. Cuttin' up. Yes, sir. See, yellow one on one. He was in the midst, but he's skated by. You feel him? I mean, did they ever come home or are they home now? But they just didn't ever mess with the music no more. They tapped in. They tapped in, but you know, they just got like, you know what I'm saying, come on with it. They still messed with it. Most of them still drop music. Okay, okay, okay. Do you, when do you feel like once, when do you feel like, and I go here with y'all, because y'all was, I was coming from that history. When do you feel like y'all culture, you know what I mean? You gear shifted, was it? Cause I know what you went way up on, that's on me. I know I remember Stevie Wonder and all the other deals, but when do you feel like, okay, this thing is serious. It's taken off in a way that we never knew. It probably was like the first light work album. Yeah. It might've been right before that country rap tune. You see the shift change in country rap tune, yellow beat country rap tune. And by that, I say probably by the time light work came in, you know what I'm saying? It was just so much business coming in to work. You know, me, I just focused on that. And it really kind of, you know what I'm saying? Cheered on my music, but just really was on the manager side of it, on the business side. Cause you was rapping against the nigga at first. Against who? Against y'all and all of them. The young niggas. Rapping against them. Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Who was that nigga in there, kid? Who was that nigga in there? Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Go David. Go ahead and touch, dude. I got you. You say what now? No! Shit. So, you know, cause when you go in that booth and y'all together, it's a competition thing. It ain't no thing where a nigga just go in there like, oh yeah, I'ma let that nigga make it on the song. Am I right? Safe. Safe. They're in the competition, man. You say low, man. Say, man. Man, I was missing you. Lower fool, man. Hey, listen to me, man. No, you ain't, man. I don't see it. I don't know. I was 20. Go get that audio crack. Okay. Yeah, yeah, all right. All right. Say it. No, bro, just pop, man. I was 23 years old, man. These niggas was like 13, 14. Oh, yeah, so they looking up to you. Yeah, man, I was the nigga that's showing them, you know what I'm saying? I was the sense I had to tell you. So you were really showing them kind of how to do in the booth. How to make it come off this way. Little bro, go in there and say that bitch like this. That's facts. And if it was something that was weak, you would tell them, that ain't it. Say it, man. Nigga here, yeah. No, man. Don't finish that bitch, but we, you know. That ain't it. Nope. No. Hold on them niggas. Everybody will love that old bitch. I know they will love it, but you gotta have it. Look at him now. Only not say that because that's what Boosie said that PMC would do to him. Like he always come in like that, that ain't nothing. That ain't it. I can't say I was like that because when he went hard I let the niggas know you can't. I think he did too. I don't think he never did. You gotta think, man. These young niggas were 13, 14, you know what I'm saying? So nah, it's just when they did something good, I had to let them know it was good. But when they did something bad, like, hey. I just didn't know how to do that. But it didn't do too much bad. It wasn't even really bad. It was just like, it was a critique. Like say, bro, you need to go over here and do this and do that. Facts. That's how hard, but this part right here, you know what I'm saying? And shit, he'll go back in there and knock it out, take a stroke and criticism good. And shit, it's aces then. Let's get old Jose Bodega in here and how did y'all run into this guy right here? He always been around. Bro, been around. Man, I want to know how y'all ran into the niggas. Yo, G, we y'all. That was yellow potting, man. Yes, sir. You seen these niggas. You like, I'ma get in that booth here. Bro, been around. Yeah, what it was was I wasn't really into the music at first. Like I said, I was always trying to get some money. But I always been around. Even when, like when yellow used to, when we were young and he was going out of town. He would be there. I was in the car. Always. Yeah, he would drop a verse here and there, a freestyle here and there. He'd come to the studio here and there, but he wouldn't just for real. You know what I'm saying? All the way. You know what I'm saying? But he was there. You know what I'm saying? He was always a part of the entourage. Beginning. You know what I'm saying? That's him. Then, like I say probably about two years ago, he came to me with some music and I was like, damn. He came to me with this Mr. Big song remix, A-Bi-L-M-J-G shit. That's all it took. You know, I said nigga, he killed that bitch too. I'm telling you, that's all it took. I said, how long, man? They sleeping on Bodeigal, bro. I said, ooh, this nigga hurt. Hold on. He said, start sending me more songs. Start sending me more songs. I'm like, bitch, what's up? You know what I'm saying? It's gone. You know what I'm saying? So that's when it came about, like that third book. Bodeigal, Bodeigal, Bodeigal been around, bro. How did you feel about when you sent the music and you got the response? I would just, like I said, it had been, like you say, I had always dropped a little verse here and there, but I never really took the music seriously enough to just do it. Yes, man. You want some water? Yes, man. I ain't know you was fasting around this time. I know. It's just a liquor. Niggas must be. A liquor. Shit. Quit mouthing. Nah, here, you need to shit out some porn. You got a liquor. Shit. I ain't miss no part of the piece. I love the piece. In the head. Say it, man. I'm the only one that don't even know God damn porn. For real? Yeah, yeah. I ain't miss no part of the piece, man. And he go eat it, go to sleep. Oh, yeah. Yes, sir. PMG invasion. Say it. PMG take over. And that's why we did it. I thought about it before y'all got here, to be honest, which is just, man, we feel so wrong and kick it. That's what I thought. No. You know, I felt like that was something to show love to the PMG movement because you boy had been putting that work in, in the Dallas area for a long time. And then y'all hit every other city and y'all do us proud. So I just want to say thank you. You know what I'm saying? No, for sure. At the end of the day, you know, it take a serious team to stick together like that for that many years. Say it, man. You know what I'm saying? Family. That's real, bro. I go eat Miss Betty's cooking. Yes, sir. They used to come eat Miss Maddie's cooking. You feel what I'm saying? Yeah. So it's just like we come off the road, go straight to somebody's mama house and we, you know what I'm saying? It's just how deep this shit go. And lay down. You from Highland Hills, too? Nah, nah, he from South Dallas. I'm from Highland Hills. South Dallas. Both of them from Highland Hills. You from Highland. Okay. You from double O'sel? Double O'sel. Rose Cherry Projects. Yes, sir. My little Kenfo passed away. Little Jeremy, he was over there as a kid. And crazy, man. Like it's just crazy how South Dallas doesn't change so much. It ain't even the same like it used to be. Nah. They don't tow down our projects. I know. It's crazy different. I don't really, you know, like they trying to, it looked like they trying to edge everybody out that thing. You go over there, the streets blocked. The businesses can't get on there. But they can't move them around. Nah, they can't. But they try. You know what I'm saying? But it ain't. They ain't going nowhere. I was just, I was just looking at a documentary on documentary on Burnton ideal. Yeah. On how it used to be the flood plains. Yep. Yes, sir. And all the people that they moved there was working on Park Road and South Boulevard and the mansions for the white folks. And they put, they put Burnton, they put all the black people in the flood plains, which was Burnton and ideal. It's a documentary on shit. And they called it Burnton because once, once people, black people started moving into like, you know, Park Road and South Boulevard, the white folks started bombing the mansions and shit. Wow. It's a flood down there all the time. They had to build the floodgates down there, man. If you go up under the bridge, you'll see the floodgates over there. Yeah. Shout out to little Shorty Mac. Shorty Mac used to go rap hard back in the days. Young little bitch shout nigga. 007. That's where I'm from. He used to hit that on. Lizette Wayne. The nigga were rapping, man. Shout out to Lizette Wayne. Lizette Wayne. It's Burnton. It's her. So man, like, like, so let's get back to your story. Like, like when you, when you really, when you came in, you knew that he, he was cool with what you were doing for us on the, on the rap thing, where it's like, damn, you nigga feeling me. I got to turn this whole up so even more. Right. Right. And it was, like I said, I always could rap. I just couldn't, I didn't never take it serious. So once I got with my evil twin, you know what I'm saying? Who I was telling you about that I'd be putting on, you know what I'm saying? On the, on the mic. And she make sure I get, he going to be on every record, every project I ever drop until he catch a bus. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. And he basically caught me up with the times. You know what I'm saying? Like what niggas was doing, how niggas was rapping. See, I actually, before I just started music, I took like three to four months to prep myself all the way up to doing music, like doing songs. You know what I'm saying? So that's why, because I really want to make myself one. Like I had, I had to make myself bodega. Like I didn't want, you know what I'm saying? I used to call myself Boli. You know what I'm saying? Like that's what they still call me and how it is. Like, but I had to make myself this person. You know what I'm saying? I had to make sure my lyrics was different. You know what I'm saying? I had to make sure I talk different, act different. You know what I'm saying? Still me. But when I'm Jose Bodega, you know what I'm saying? That's the job. You know what I mean? So I, like I said, I built, I built that shit. Like music, my, I doubt if you'll find somebody that sound like me. Okay. You know what I'm saying? Because I made it that way. Wow. That's, that's heavy. So I mean, you took a lot of time to think how you can do it. That's what made me really just take a liking into it because it was some shit that I ain't heard. I was like, damn. I heard you rap before. I used to hear your verses and shit, but nigga, this shit different. You know what I'm saying? So as I, as I kept on sending me more songs, I was like, man, okay, cool. We need to go on here. Push the button on this bitch. You need to go ahead and get your album out. Wow. That's heavy. And that's where Mr. Bodega came in at. Wow. Bro used to tell me on the road all the time, check your stuff out. Man. Yeah. Y'all already, you already, you, you watching everybody say, I'm, I'm, I'm I'm in a minute. I'm in a minute. I'm in a minute. I'm in a minute. I gotta ask you something. You was, you was with Y'all this weekend when y'all that with the football thing? No, I wouldn't because my mama and Y'all got the same birthday. You told me that. And my mama passed 2012. So we always do something for her. Okay. Go to the grave site and you know what I'm saying, the whole family to be there and you know, we just, it just be like, that be always a little, a little conflict and interest because Y'all ain't my mama birthday on the same day. So me just going to go kick it with a lot of time. I can't do it. It's understandable, bro. My mom's coming up on the fourth. Yeah. And it's always something when you, when you when you lost your mama, I lost my mom in 96. Yeah. So it's always a that day right there is something else for me. You know what I'm saying? I said it up for them boys to get out there and it was, it was dope. I loved it. I just seen a little bit of it. Shout out to Mack Main to Mack Main. Yeah. Coming through on some real shit. He did. Yeah. But you know what I'm saying, I put it together for that boy to get out of this. It was live. And then embrace them. Oh yeah. I seen it. I seen it, man. That was live. And that's that's the kind of look that when I see stuff like that, that's the next level. So there's a lot of a lot of people talking and talk, but they ain't doing the stuff that's being done on that level. And I and I always recognize that on this show. You know what I'm saying? And I always check anything at the door when they come down to you know what I'm saying, the movement and what's really going down. And I think that's real. This is real right here. Yeah. And this is right here. And this is right here. So that we'll know where we going. Yeah, man. Because he always put on for the deal. He ain't even from here, but he made this his home too, man. No, he showed love. He showed love. I know he from four miles Florida, but he treat that was like, you know what I'm saying? Like, you know, he always put on for the shit that's going on here. Salute the prime. Salute the coach. Prime doing crazy. Great things and they could have some couches out there on the field. I'm not sure. You don't like to lay on couch. The little movie couch. I said, he definitely shining that light on. Super sound is doing this thing too, man. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So do y'all think so y'all think they're going to take it this year? They do hope so, man. So he got he got the he got the buzz. It's going down. Yeah. I'm sure that I'm going to I don't know. I thought about when he had to fight that Atlanta when the nigga pushed him. You remember when he fighting the nigga? Who was he fighting over there? When they were going back and forth by I said, nigga man, nigga man, I pushed that nigga to or he must have seen that tape. It's about respect. It's about respect. Yeah. He shouldn't have with that one the way. But you got to he out there. You know, when we when yellow was saying he dancing and you know, coaches really don't have a swag like that. You know, time baby. Yeah. Give me my theme music and then go in. Come on, man. That nigga. Wow, man. I love it though. Brought some good energy to that to that team. And they want to play for that boy. Everybody want to come there too. He done brought energy to the whole the whole team. Who is swag? Who is swag? Yes, sir. He did that. He's shining that light on HBCUs. They didn't really get it first. You know what I'm saying? And it take a person like that to do that. Yeah. It's real, bro. It's real, man. Coming from D.N. We salute you from all the way from the city, man. Keep doing your thing, D.N. Man, D.N. Hey, man, it's love over on Boss Talk 101. You mess with my boy Jock Taylor, who comes here frequently. Boss Talk. We gave him an award here. That's who deal with it. Huh? Yeah, yeah. Shout out to Jock Taylor, man. And the drunk folks to the left of me. You know what I'm saying? Say, I'm enjoying my shit. Man, hey, man, you know, this is crazy, man. So how you like it on Boss Talk? It's your first time. I'm enjoying it. Chilling. Like I'm just talking to my bro. That's the way it be. Knickers be like, man, that's why I be laughing when he say, you cut me off. Yeah, nigga. It's like we at the house under the tree. You know what I'm saying? We're at a nigga talk. You remember last time? Yeah, I remember being under that tree a lot. I never got to talk, though. I never let me talk because I went older than the talk. But I could just sit there and listen, though. I love it. You know how we kick it on the boat? Yeah. The same thing. It's the same thing. I love to thank you again. You brought me on there, man. I kicked it. I got to meet everybody. But this nigga was the hardest one on the damn ship. It was the Gemini badge, man. It was the Gemini badge, man. Say, I just, and I always been in the background, bro. But I found you then. Yeah, you found me. I went, yeah, once you introduced me, and I, he had that glow in his eyes. I said, oh, this nigga, I'm going to middle all night. Say, I ain't just look at me like that. Yeah. I believe in my bros. Yeah. To this day, I still believe in my bros. How proud are you of the movement and what you with the part of the story? Man, I'm very proud. Very. Very. Wow. That's heavy, man. Because I didn't really know how far back it went. I'm glad that I'm getting to share this history with y'all. Yeah, this is down to 20 years old, man. And let's be real. Let's be real. Y'all ain't never just broke out and talked about this no other time. No. This is the first time. That's what I'm talking about, nigga. I'm soldier, boy. Little cousin in this whole nigga. Say, nigga, this is y'all nigga. I need a first nigga. PMG history going down right here on Ballet Talk. You're more definitely big cousin. No, man. I just, I just love the fact of sharing the history with everybody of what, how this whole thing came to be because a lot of people be wanting to hear this and they don't know. You know what I'm saying? And that's where, and people be, and I hate to say it like this, but a lot of times people be like, man, really Dallas ain't got this. Yeah, they do. But y'all don't identify with y'all. It's, it's a lot of stuff going on here, but the foundation and everything is not recognized a lot of time the way it should be. And they go all the way back to Bobo, nigga. I tell Bobo this all the time. The reason why bro with us, bro, is because we just work, bro. We don't get on her and really come out and try to, you know what I'm saying? You know, be on all that internet shit, bro. We really just work and do our thing and let the workfeats speak for itself. Go by the old law. Yeah, man, for sure. That's the old law. See, the old law never really didn't, huh? We instead of saying, you know, sometimes the internet creates its own narrative and some niggas feel like it's of them to get on there and correct these people with shit, man. We just let the workfeats stop. But the old law is different than the new law. You know that, don't you? People in the old law like it's a different respect factor the way they move. I would say J. Prince go by the old law. Most definitely. You know what I'm saying? So it's like when you go by the old law you don't do things like everybody else. It's going to be a distinct difference but then when people see you, they're going to respect you. You see what I'm saying? And they're going to be like that's them boys. They know already it goes without saying cause of the work that you're talking about. But when they see me, man, I don't hear that shit. So it's like You got respect in the city and in the hood and in different cities. That's the whole game. What's the key words you keep saying? Respect. That's what it's about. Yeah. And I'm going to respect everybody. They respect me. I never seen you no flaw you know, as far as the way you carry yourself and the way you help deal with the people around you and when I call you and ask you whatever you always been open up front with me. That's why I mean I be kicking it man. I'm a grown ass man. So I be kicking it with the people like, okay, we I'm a grown ass man too. So I mean, I mean, when I kick it with my people like I'll be like, okay, I'm going to show and I say my people the culture is what I'm talking about. I'm going to show the good, the bad, the ugly. I'm being real, but y'all going to respect what's going on. This whole grind is serious as hell. It ain't easy. Y'all niggas and just talked about 13 niggas. 13. Niggas, you got to understand this 20 years man. Yeah bro. Yeah. Yeah. We talking about a couple of decades man. This ain't nothing to play with bro. And we all still close. All of us man. All of us. I can pick up my phone right now. Call y'all. He going to pick up. Facts. Talk a lot of shit. But people that don't know us there think we're bumping in. Nah. Really? We talking shit to each other. That just happens. We all have heard no craziness when it come to y'all bro. Yeah. Because it ain't going to never be like that with me. You know what I'm saying? Like it's been straight straight being there. We going to talk shit amongst each other. Like nobody even if we have a disagreement it won't be in front of nobody. You know what I'm saying? We just on road like that. Yeah. Yeah. Because you guys man like I said when it come down to everything that you guys stood on and stand on like I said yellow. You know what I'm saying? He was like out here on the forefront. You know what I'm saying? Like you would and that came when that's on me thing took off like it did. It made everybody look this way. Yeah. Say man I called a bro for the long with big and for that song. You don't put it out. Bro. Bro. Bro. Bro. Bro. Because he was doing shows for trapping designer and he had recorded I think I didn't go that time. My boy Squeaky Mac took him down at that time for me. Shout out to my boy Squeaky Mac. Maurice Mac. You know what I'm saying? So he took him down there and that's when that's when he had made the song and he tried to test the bitch out on the crowd and they just started singing it. I'm not worth a word but like it was so easy to catch on to. They called that home. That's when we knew it was time to put it out. Wow. That's crazy. And you but you said damn baby. See that song. See that song, bro. That whole going same. I heard it. I know it. He knew it was it. He told you? Yeah, he told me. He said that's it. He said it's the same, bro. That bitch done, bro. That's it right there. You need to go ahead and put it all out. That's it. And that one went straight from there. And that that that woke a lot of niggas up. Man, they got to respect a little, bro. They got to respect a little, bro. I don't. Do you feel like he's respected on that level? Nope. You don't think so? I'll be real with you. I don't agree with that. The music scene respects him. It just bullshit. Like people, you know how they hate on yellow niggas. That's really what it be. Say. Hey, I would tell you what it is, bro. It's the nigga that had bro. Every time he do something, bro, it's like, damn, okay, when he gonna. That's gonna be the last one. And then they always come back with another one. And another one. Man, this yellow nigga won't go nowhere. I don't be seen. I be seeing it like the niggas already solidified. Most definitely. Most definitely. And I don't think about like when you hear about people like, man, I don't care a nigga like I know this nigga ready. So I don't have to. It's so many people when you can leave wherever you go, you know, first of all, he handled itself when I was around him in the way you're supposed to. You know what I'm saying? So that's the whole game was at the end of the day. As long as he doing that, a lot of niggas, they ain't gonna be able to get up to you. It was something that I think it was chief said on here where, no, it wasn't chief. It was it was show, show nickname show. Y'all might not know show. You might know show. I remember show. Show was on his show. Was talking about the fact of he went to Hollad chief. Yeah. And when he went to Hollad him, he didn't really show him the love. He felt he deserved. But then he thought about it. When he got older and said, man, nigga, they know me, nigga, he got a gyrone. He doing this thing. You know what I'm saying? He don't know what I'm trying to get close to him for. Yeah. This is a lot of time what be the scenario to see what am I right though? I feel like it's more so how you carry yourself. Like you're a motherfucker. I never feel like you disrespected them. If you handle everybody the same. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Like handle motherfucker. Like my granny always told me, like it don't matter who it is. You look a man in the eye and you respect them until they give you a reason not to. That's real. So it's principle. You know what I'm saying? I agree with that. The only thing I was saying in that is the fact that you got to be careful who you let in your circle. Yeah, you do. That's what I was. You know what I mean? Right. Because you could let the wrong person in your circle if you not prayed up. I'm a praying man. So it's always like who am I? I deal with a lot of people, man. So it's like who am I really picking this phone of calling like this? You know what I'm saying? And that's the cold part because then you got like what is the person's purpose if he want to be in my circle? I'm a known solidified artist is what I'm saying for a person even when he was hustling in the streets. Now I know about that part. You know what I'm saying? Like you're not going to let everybody come up to you and be trying to hang with you and trying to you don't trust nothing. Okay. Circles don't hold anyone. Especially if you get that money. Circles don't open. Especially if you get that cash. Especially if you get that cash. That cash. Who the fuck is that name? That's right. I get in there. You remember on Nino Brown when Ice-T came strolling through at the basketball park? Who is that nigga? Right? You can stand next to the circle but he ain't going to be in that motherfucker. That's real. That's why we like family. That's real. We're not friendly like that. At all. No. Everybody that we fuck with, we're not saying we don't fuck with other motherfuckers but everybody that's in the circle being in the circle. You said the grass rooted, man. But what do you think about when people say y'all are not affording people opportunities because y'all been holding it down so long and y'all pretty much maybe y'all part of the problem? Because y'all ain't letting other little niggas come up because y'all already solidified? Yeah, that BMG. I mean, I wouldn't necessarily say that. But you ought to say what I'm saying. For real. Like if a nigga trying to get on, he got to try to get at you. But he got to be serious though, bro. He got to be serious. He going to look at y'all and get intimidated. Them niggas ain't nobody else been with them for 30 years. Nah, man. Nah, it ain't like that. It ain't like that. We talking about on a family stuff. Shout out GMB Mack, man. That's a new guy? Yeah, yeah, Mack. He kind of new to the whole situation? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Shout that boy out. Yeah, that's real. Miles. Miles, too. Yeah, Miles, too. So, how did you link with those guys? I'm just trying to feel the process for these young niggas be calling me, trying to ask me how to, you know, can I get in the game or how my music sound? Young nigga popping in the streets. Popping in the streets. Yeah. Taking over his school with his high school and stuff like that. The background come back straight. What the fuck with the nigga, man? Yeah, nah, most different. Well, they do that part. I'm just rapping. But we ain't with the problem. We don't want to deal with the extra problem. All this shit off. You know what I'm saying? Dude, y'all niggas gonna be on fire or they out. But we don't want to deal with the extra problem. And then, too, man, you know, it's all about your report card, man. Your report card gotta be up to par, man. You know what I'm saying? Sometime people approach you, they don't be passing out of classes. Okay. Yeah. I just, man, like I said, man, when I look at y'all and I look at, yeah, that nigga can't handle no more cut off time. Cut that nigga off. Cut that nigga off. I just do a little sip really about a drink. Call that boy a little baby. Say you can't smoke in here, nigga. So, you know, I think, like I said, man, for you guys to have, but that's so dope. You know what I'm saying? The PMG done been together all those years, bro. Yeah. And that takes some real stumped-down cats to even hold it together that long. You know what I'm saying? And for niggas to even stay interested that long. You know what I mean? Niggas ain't here to say, man, leave the nigga alone. That nigga, that nigga bag, well, you know damn well, nigga, you've been over here with us, man. Man, look, baby, and this is going on. But it started with the foundation, though, bro. It started with the foundation. Well, you got two-sided cat mess with each other, get it out the mud. What do you expect? Yeah, that's real. To expect. That's to be respected. You know what I'm saying? Now, I just appreciate you guys for the drive and motivation to keep everything going. So, let's talk about this Bodega one time. I want to hear about because we're going to about to end this whole in a little bit. But tell me about, okay, when is this when is this project going to drop? You got a tease out there or something? Tomorrow. Yeah, it's actually dropping tomorrow at 12. At 12? Yeah. And that will go in. It's going crazy. What video is going to be? Is it got a video lunching already on it? No, the video going to be dropping soon. Okay. Like I said, I got behind on trying to get that project done. Yeah. And I'll take the blame for that. We got a guy flying in from New York. What's the name? Spike Tarantino. Okay. Coming out here to shoot a couple videos filming from New York. You know what I'm saying? I had, like say, reaching out to new people. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. He came out here to fuck with me. He'll be here tomorrow too. So, actually the day that the album drop, I'm going to be working. That's good. That's good. Like I want to see that nigga going to paint this picture. It's coming soon after. Yeah. I'm going to jam it though. I'm going to jam it. You got to link me in. I see that's the thing. The lyrics are painting a picture for you. No, I get it man. But it ain't nothing like seeing my nigga OJ Bodega going in. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. You already heard it. What? I got in my phone. You wanted the ears. Yeah. I quit playing, man. I didn't want to hear them. Say big bro.

We gonna go through all the songs and I don't think that bitch should be after that one. It should make the album, but it shouldn't be right after that song, type of shit. You know what I'm saying? That nigga school to us and everybody just being as a whole, just you know what I'm saying? Pick the projects out. That's heavy. That's heavy. Come on. Then we presented to the like. I like that. No, I don't know. I said, I definitely know the process was heavy before even this interview because of the way it land. Yeah. Can't land and if it ain't, if it ain't, you know what I'm saying? Got to be something going on. You know the niggas just throwing stuff out there. You can tell. It feel like they just threw it out there. They just got put some respect on my bro. They ain't dope. Why do you keep saying that? Because they do. Are you talking about Dallas? Yella B, they got put some respect. I say you to my Dallas cause you and I both know when they get these cities, these people going crazy, bro. Am I right? Yeah, you're right. So I don't look at it that way. One of the best to come about the city, man. And it's known. I don't know why. Are you tripping? Cause I don't think so. I ain't tripping. He just really hard about it. I take that personally though, bro. But I don't understand what's, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a friend. I'm a fan. So I'm, I'm looking at it like, how do you see it? May you see something? I don't see. This nigga goes through and read all the comments. Yes, sir. We hear what the. Yes, sir. All the comments. Man, I'm going down now. Down through there. That's why he, nigga don't do that. You read all the comments. I don't read the. I don't read the. Hold on. Hold on. Don't do that. Been with me since 13. So you take it personally? Yes, I do. Everything? Yeah. I take it personally about a lot. Bodega. Yes, I do. Personal. That's just me. I get it. Now nothing gets nobody here. That's just me. Now I feel you tapped in. It's love. Yeah. Yeah. You read every comment. My bro going through. I'm going through. Yeah. It's like that. Wow. That's heavy, man. But that's love. That's family. That's family. Yeah. I can't afford for you to be looking at all the comments doing that. Neither you. I had to stop. I stopped this a couple of years ago. I mean, I've never been one to read the comment. I've never really been in. Like I said, I'll be in tune to the social media. But most folks don't say something to me. They're going to have to come to me and say it. Y'all see this shit. And I'm outside every day. But you don't move me, though. You know what I'm saying? I see this shit. I think the most important thing is to stay focused on the prize, man. What shit, man? You know what I mean? You know what I mean? We're trying to get more prizes because we can get some prizes. I know. I know already, you know, there hasn't a lot of time that hate going to pop up in your face and do it to me. Yeah. I just need to be focused, man. I'll be like, nigga, what? Oh, he said, what? Let me get this right here. Say, no, little bro, just made real music. Man, I love his music. I'm a fan, too. Yeah. Yeah. I ain't gonna stunt with all the defamation of character going out there. You know what I'm saying? And that kind of slowed my career down a little bit in the beginning. You know what I'm saying? Because of the way people was doing it. Yeah. Yeah. So that's why I pressed so hard for this, the name of this album. You know what I'm saying? Because like y'all looking at this, but this really what it is. You know what I mean? And you know what I mean? Like I say, that's why I say people, they pay attention to the wrong thing. But I felt that way when you interviewed last time. I feel like you still was at that point trying to be like my character is this, but these niggas saying this or feeling this way. Right. And I felt that the first project when you was here before, to be honest with you. Right. But I still respected the project when it came out and I knew where you were going with it. And after meeting you that day, the way you, you know, you talk to me and my wife and your grandma and all this different stuff that you was talking about. Right. It humanized you for me. Right. Right. You understand what I'm saying? That's where I'm at with it. You know what I'm saying? And I don't forget. Right. You know what I'm saying? I don't forget nothing. I go back and chill. You don't know what I'm doing. You know, that nigga right there. Yeah. That's how I am. Yeah. Because I'm the same nigga. Exactly. $100 a million. I like that. I'm still that same nigga. Like I say, I stand on principle. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? I've always been like that. So, you know, my grandma put that in me and it ain't going to go nowhere. No time soon. You write. You definitely write, man. Damn. Why am I turning this on? Because he got his camera. I picked mine up. I'm going to be like little D's in this all. No. I was trying to record something while I got y'all on panel. So he wouldn't be the only one with it. I asked Mr. Maker to come out here and do me a behind the scene. But no, she didn't do it. So I got to do my own behind the scene. I need my bro Lo to draw one more album. Everybody asking for that. Do you know that? Like it was a dude over here the other day. Fat Pimp came over here the other day. Yeah. Just one more. One more. One more. Say, I'm going to give him one more. Fuck you. What was that last night? What was that last night? We were talking shit. I think it was night before that. Yeah. I was telling him. I said, hey, man. I think I can get you. I think I can get you now. You blow my ass. You know, I'm a sensei, man. Mr. Miyagi, man. These niggas came from my goddamn Miyagi dough. You feel what I'm saying? I'm real. They came from the dough job. This is man. Hey, Fat Pimp said that boy got some, man. I don't know. Lo, hey. Say, I'm telling you. Lo hard. Lo hard. Lo hard. And that's a lot of where I come from about it. Like, he would give you high shit lyrically. So that's what I stand on. Like that lyrical, you know what I'm saying? Words. I'm going to say the same shit, but it's going to come out different to where you can understand it. And that's a lot of what Lo did. Like, uh, he gon' give you that hot-clad shit in his voice, so goddamn deep, Teddy Pina Grande, or the rap game. Now, face. You ain't goin' in. What made you just, why did you just stop? You wanted to focus on yellow? Well, you know what I'm sayin', at the time, I was on the one hand on the business, you know what I'm sayin'? It was movin' so fast, and everything was goin' like that, man. So, you know, I just prioritized it, you know what I'm sayin'? to where this was the business at hand, so. How many do you and y'all got somethin' together? Hell yeah, shit, hell yeah. I got shit. You want me to put them out, though? I got some songs with Yella and Snooty Wilde, I got some songs with... I heard about it. The only reason I heard about it was through Fat Pimp. Yeah. Fat Pimp said, then they got a whole catalog, and he gon' let it out. Tell you, bro. Yeah, it's comin', though, man. I got you, I got you. I gon' be happy when you bring that while. Yeah, we're supposed to be doin' a PMG compilation, right? That'll be hard. It'll be hard. Nah, we feel to do it. Yeah, we doin' that, too. Nah, we feel to do that. Yeah. That's comin'. Yeah. You see, at the time when we was trying to do it once before, a few years ago, it was before...

Monstra was in and out, too. Yup. So, you know what I'm sayin'? Now everybody home, so it's time. Top three artists of all time did or alive. Any genre. You say what they're repeatin'? Any genre.
