Look, I see you with the jacket on Oh man, I got the jacket just for the occasion and shit, but you know, I came in my chucks You know what I'm saying, so I'm still outside Okay You know, take us whether we up and down, yesterday was nice and warm, today's was like, freezing Yeah, I got off the plane last night, like almost midnight, so it was alright, it was pretty cold and shit I stepped out the hotel this morning though, and I felt it I jumped in the wheel with my boy and shit, he had the heater on full blast and shit Ready, go ahead and let's just go down through there We like to go back, back way back before you were Lil' Grifo Tell me about how it was growing up in San Diego, with your mom, your dad, brothers and sisters, all of that Okay, well shit, like I grew up, like every other Mexican kid, you know, in that area and shit, you know My dad left, mom doing her own shit, you know what I'm saying, so I grew up with my grandparents Grandparents tried their best to raise me How old were you when he left? Shit, I don't even remember, you know what I mean, I lived with my grandparents since I could remember, you know what I'm saying You know your dad? Yeah, I know my pops and shit, yeah, we cool now, but you know, I had to let a lot of shit go in order for me to go forward in life and shit, you know what I'm saying That's good, a lot of anger builds up when you were younger Yeah, you know, like when you don't have a role model or you don't have a father figure and shit, you start looking like to the street So you just start looking to anybody who you think at that moment is going to show you any kind of love or anything, you know So many people fall in that trap, we have so many people come on the show and they fall in that trap and not all of them are angry Not all of them, but the majority of them are usually angry because of that, you know what I mean, not having that father figure Yeah, yeah, so what happens, you know, it happens, but you know, to break it is where it's sad, so we go Exactly, and have you broken it? I mean, yeah, I'm here, I'm here, you know what I'm saying, I'm some boss talk shit You got kids of your own? Yeah, I got three kids See, that's how you break it, not doing to them what was done to you Right And that's how Man, I just really like the fact that, you know, we do go down that road to see what a person went through because a lot of people can learn from that You know what I mean, like a lot of people can look at your situations and the trials and tribulations that you faced And then they're able to skip past them because you told them something that they didn't have to go through Right Or they seen it through something that you said, and that's what life is about, about touching people Right And a way to where they don't have to go through those things, so your children, your friends, different people in your community, you know what I mean And so that's a great thing I want to know, so in the area that you were raised in, was there a lot of Hispanics in that area? Yeah, mostly, you know, the area was dominated by Hispanics, yeah Okay, so when did you find or who inspired you into music, I should say? Shit, well just like my music selection, shit that I would bump, you know, Tupac, shit like that A lot of West Coast shit, West Coast artists, some Chicago shit, like do or die, twister, you know what I'm saying How old were you when you started finding your love for music though? I was probably about like 11, 12 years old I used to be in jail, juvenile hall, sitting there writing down lyrics and shit like that Thinking to myself like I'm a rap, I'm a rap, but you know, like I never really took it seriously until I got out of prison So I got out of prison about 2015 How old were you? About 22 I think So you stayed in there pretty long time? Yeah, I was in there for a while So what led you up to being in prison at that time, for that length of period? Robberies and you know what I'm saying, dumb shit like that Multiple times getting caught, because usually sometimes it's never usually your first time that you get locked up for that long Usually, you know, different cases But that wasn't your first time, first offense? No, I was in and out the system as a juvenile because you know, I just couldn't stay off the street as a child and shit like that as growing up So back then like they used to stick you in juvenile hall just because you know, like you miss school or you just out here fucking around They think your parents can control you so they start putting you like in group homes and stuff like that So I did that for like majority of my from like 12 to 18 And then once I hit 18, I was looking up to go to the adult system Caught my first case, I was strong on robbery and then I went to the pen I did like three years, you know what I'm saying, got out when I was about 20 something, my early 20s And then I never went back since then And I mean I've caught cases and shit whatnot but I haven't been convicted of anything just you know With all that you've been through how do you advise your kids are probably young though But how would you advise your kids not to go down that same road that you went down? Shit, I'm pretty much just a good example just what to look at, you know what I'm saying So I'm pretty sure they see it every day, you know And you don't hide your past from them, you let them know? No, they know for sure, they know for sure So when you think about just being from San Diego versus being in LA What's the difference? We being from Texas, she being from Jamaica Explain to us the difference between being in San Diego, which is beautiful in San Diego LA, you know, Venice Beach, I know the difference between the beaches San Diego beaches are way better But at the end of the day what makes the difference and you would think because this is on your opinion Unless you have cousins or something in LA But what's the difference? I mean shit, it's a big difference, you know what I'm saying But there's not much difference, but there's big differences Every hood got a ghetto, every city got a ghetto and shit like that I don't give a fucking you like in Beverly Hills They got a alley that has pretty ghetto and shit, you know what I'm saying So it's all the same characteristics everywhere you go Every hood got a knucklehead, every hood got a, you know what I'm saying A baller, every hood got money getters and shit like that So it's the same shit to me honestly LA just a little bit bigger, a little bit faster, you know what I'm saying Yeah, LA just a little bit bigger, a little bit faster And have more resources I mean it's a big city When you think of California, you think of LA in the Bay But some people get offended by that Like if they're from somewhere else other than LA and you say oh you're from LA They'll get mad at you like no I'm not from no LA, I'm from such and such and such Yeah, I mean that's their fault for not being from LA Or you know I'm fulfilling that way, you know what I'm saying Like I love my city, I ain't gonna hide that shit I'm from San Diego, you see it on my hat, you see it on my neck I represent that shit, you know what I'm saying But I'm not gonna die there, you know what I'm saying I'm not gonna let that shit hold me there and shit like that You know what I'm saying There are more people you're able to interact with the more people you can help I look at it as a helping situation man Anytime, that's why I communicate so much I do so good with a lot of the people from California And I thank God for that That God sent me a lot of people from down from Cali And I interview them and when I went to California when I was in LA I was able to interview a lot of different people Freeway, Ricky Ross, vitamin C That there was a couple of them It just was a dope setting To be able to go out there and sit with Melvin Form and all those guys And the one thing I can say that it is different The way that LA lives And when I went to San Diego It felt like a tourist type situation too You know what I mean? Like when you go downtown Remember about that boat? It's a naval base there Then you got people jumping over the line there too I met some guys that just came to go over on the other side To go to Mexico They wanted to jump across that line Tijuana And they tried to get me to go But I said I got my Tijuana right here But at any rate I enjoyed it I love the fact that it's so clean It's clean, it's a very nice place Beautiful city I love where you're from I can't say that enough But that whole West Coast flavor is dope So when you think about Going to prison at the age Or getting yourself in situations like that You was close It could have took out All of these different penitentiary chances That we take in life Going to court rooms Going to trying to get a lawyer Trying to figure out if the court Appointed a lawyer going to be straight up with you Are they trying to do me something on this one Do I need to hold out longer These are all situations you face Mentally in your mind you'd be thinking Man is just it for me You even pray to God hard The fervent prayer of a righteous man You develop much though But you even pray harder when you're going through something You know what I mean I never pray when I'm in trouble That's the worst thing you could do I don't know about that I can't agree with that Boy you lost me on that Because that would be like If I get counsel I don't need to pray Because any situation where you're going through it You're going to pray Or you're going to try to figure out a way To strengthen your spirit And break down your flesh Or like in jail If you know you did something wrong You know you fucked up with something Like if you fucked up Or you know you did something wrong I would never pray to God To get me out of a situation That I put myself in But you pray for the acts of forgiveness For what you've done Maybe forgiveness Forgiveness that's something else And also I agree with you I know where you're coming from But I also know that That's a time also For me to condition myself Spiritually to where I can grow Because when I've been broke down in a flesh I can grow internally More mentally, more When I don't have all these different things Trying to combat against me You know what I mean? So I'm going to work on me more I'm going to work out But I'm going to work on me more mentally And I'm going to be able to fight harder When I do if I get another opportunity Now I'm able to get out here And be a better man to this universe Yeah I don't want to do what I used to do Because I ain't that age no more That's what people don't like to say Mentally and physically Most people are like He changed man when he got locked up Oh nigga years went by You know what I'm saying? N***a I'm older now Am I right? Yeah I was real shit though But some come out and still be the same Because people's minds don't grow A lot of people's minds don't grow Like in jail They grow like by reading books And shit like that educating yourself But just being a real member of society And paying bills and shit like that A lot of people they don't You don't pay bills in jail You don't pay You don't got mortgages You don't got shit in jail You know all you got to do Is roll your mattress up And exercise So like when they get out here They don't know what to do You know what I'm saying? So a lot of them can't pick up Everything out here You know so they go right back to jail And I agree with that 100% But there is opportunity in there To change The most important thing is to Get out of yourself And understand who you truly were made to be Get out of your own way Most people still be stuck in their own way They be trying to figure it out But they still be caught up on the things They were conditioned and learned as a child So a lot of that stuff is hate and hurt And they never forgive themselves For what they went through So therefore when they go through it They get to going through what they're going through And they get in jail And then they start to fight And they start to kill And they start to do all these things Because of the unforgiveness That they hold in their heart I'm being real Because they be mad at themselves For getting in the situation They be mad at their parents For turning their back on them And all that stuff rolled up in a bow Says riot, nigga You're right So when you say, hey man What you doing with your pillow on my bunk And you be like, nigga, what you mean Pillow on my bunk Oh, you got what? And then next thing you know Y'all fighting over a damn pillow But it ain't about the pillow It's about the frustration And the stuff that's held up And built up inside That's all I'm just talking So let's get into the music So you said you started taking the music Serious at 22 Yeah, about 22 So what was your first move to Being serious about your music You went out here and found somebody to do A feature with it or what?

just got some issues She gotta go through You know what I mean No because the reason Why I say that Because especially with boys Boys are usually Because boys and stuff like that You know really close And when I think about it Because I'm a mother And you know Seeing my son Go through all of this stuff I'd be like wanting to fight you Be like you need to stop this Because you're not going You know

tells me of course Every time she see me I know but She'll just tell me something But like I've changed a lot Trust me from back then To now and shit like that Like I'm a whole different person You eased up a lot You couldn't even get like A regular conversation That'll be back then You know I wouldn't be able to say Down to talk to you guys back then I like that I like the fact that You came a long ways And you recognized the process Are you enjoying the process I mean yeah yeah Of course I mean I learn every day When I wake up I'm out here in Texas Look you know what I'm saying Like I'm from Cali My boy from Cali in Texas Stopped playing We in the building So what changed you Is it your age Is it just growing older Or what is it I think it's everything It's the key to it It's everything It's everything family Me just you know what I'm saying Wanting to be Live off of this You know what I mean Trying to you know Keep going forever You know you start thinking About like What's gonna happen When you die You start thinking about Like what you're gonna Really leave behind Like you started thinking About shit like that You started thinking about Just a bunch of stuff You know what I mean Like real life shit You know before I used to just live for the moment I used to just live Like in jail a lot So like as a kid Like I didn't have Shit to worry about As an adult I would go to jail too And everything was Just for the moment So I didn't really give a fuck Like as long as I had a few dollars In my pocket and shit Like that And you know some fresh shoes I was like I'm cool But in reality It's like nobody taught Us about no credit score Nobody taught us About how to You know how to How to actually go And get a house Instead of paying rent And just getting played And shit like that Do you think if someone Had taught you that Sort of stuff It would have helped You would have listened It would have helped The reason why I'm asking that Because I hate seeing Kids out here Feeling like I know that They always feel like Well my situation My environment I have to be on the streets I have to hustle I've seen a lot Of talented rappers Be like You know I don't have fast money So I gotta be out here Doing my Doing what I do But then You have some who Don't do it And put their Everything into music And blow up Because of it You know what I mean So it's like You wanna get people off The streets And be able to Succeed in doing Their own business You know You don't have to Go work for somebody And people don't realize That people out here Hustle because I don't want to work For nobody I don't want nobody Tell me what to do Create your own business For a God Even though I don't pray When I'm in trouble But I feel like Whatever God already Has planned for you He's gonna have planned For you You know what I'm saying So everything that happens Is for a reason Me going back to jail Or just anything Like me being here With you guys Me being here With the homie right here And shit like that I feel everything Happens for a reason Everything we go through Every single fucking thing You know what I'm saying Like so To answer your questions Back to that I mean Get money in the street And that's just what you need to do Is get money in the street You want to go get a job Go get a job You want to pursue rap You know what I mean Then pursue rap But everything that you do When it's happening For a bigger picture That's already painted Over here for you You just go in that direction You know what I mean So Do you believe In order for you to succeed You have to put 100% In anything that you do Say that again In order for you to succeed You have to put 100% Because going back to the Rap and being on the street You're doing both You can't put 100% In either one Right So do you Yeah I mean I have it gave myself 100% to do music You know what I mean Because I'm always You know like last night We were fucking around We was over there In a club And I mean Drinking and shit like that So it's like If you do something Repetitively You know what I'm saying Of course you're going to Brush up on that On whatever you're doing You know what I mean Like if you work Keep on doing that job You're going to get better At that job of course And if you don't You're not that interested In it or you're not It ain't for you You know what I mean So but for sure To answer your question You go hard at it 100% that shit You might just make it Man Fascinating I think you will make it Man and like I said Just sitting back Listening to you man I definitely know That you got your head On the way You understand your path You know You start talking About predestination And things that It is written That's what the Bible Says I read a lot Or the handwriting's on the wall That's another statement That it says So you got to understand When you see these Different things being Being said It really really I believe it's Things that happen in your life When you think of certain Things So as a man Think of so is he And it's hard If you think a certain way So you got to You got to know Self-awareness is real Self-awareness Understanding you Is real That's a real thing Like if I can understand me Then I can pretty much Be successful productive To me I don't care What everybody else thinks To me if I'm settled I can be a good father To my kids That's what it's all about Man Self-awareness is so key When it comes down to Development So I think you got it I think you got it Yeah you go through things Hell I went through things Yeah that man There been through things She been through things That's life man And I like the way Life is It's not bias at all It just treats everybody the same It will kick you dead In your nose And say come on with it Yeah here the light bill Come on with it What you gonna do It don't have no kind of buffer It just Here it is life And you have to respond to it You just got to learn From your experiences Because that's why People keep going through The same stuff Over and over again Because you're not Learning from what You need to learn That's why God keep putting Like a repeat button Repeat Repeat till you get it Through your head I like it Honestly feel like I hope not You know cause I don't want to speak into Existence But I don't need to Feel like that Once I do get my head Fully on straight I feel like That's the day He gonna take me up there No No I be feeling like I be feeling like Once I really Do decide to be like You know what Fuck the streets Fuck everything You know what I'm saying I'm fully over here now Like I don't got to carry Nothing I don't got to carry Nothing I don't Yeah It be like that It's just the way The way I really feel Why do you feel that way Because I feel like everybody Who's You know what I'm gonna take that back But that's how I feel though Just as far as that You can't feel that way That's how I feel Once I clean everything up I feel like God's just gonna God's just gonna take me up there With him Cause he always take the one You notice he always takes The good ones right No I'm a good one And I'm still here So I ain't trying to hear that I'm listening at you And everything you saying And everything you facing I can relate You just You see me now But if you see me then You would say Dang I was the same way So I don't agree with that Because I know I cleaned myself up I ain't had a drink since 95 90 You know I ain't smoked Drink or nothing And been in the No kind of issues With dealing with None of the streets And I'm from the streets And I got millionaire Partners That about for me And say Hey that was the one That yeah But at the end of the day God changed my life So God put you here today So you could see a miracle This is our place of being It's been there 15 years I've been married for 20 years I changed my life And wrote a letter to God For this woman And he gave me this wife So at the end of the day That statement I get it But I'd be wrong Not to consist That God I call him dead But you gotta change your thought That he be good to me man You know what I mean I just have a few You know what I'm saying You can change that feeling though I just had to I had to strip my stuff right Because we all One thing I've learned And I've learned this recently Is that Everything starts in the mind You know before you Step out here You're gonna do something You're gonna think about it I'm gonna do that So you get up and you do it Your body Follow whatever you think A lot of times And we all are human beings Where we think Negative stuff every day Something negative But it's for you Not to act on it Right So a lot of times We have to talk ourselves Off the ledge So a lot of times When you have that Negative thought Like what you're talking about You can Talk yourself off of that You know what I mean It's like No I'm not gonna do that I'm not gonna be that I'm gonna be better than that I'm just saying Right here what you're saying though It seemed that way Like as soon as I get it together That's in the movie Nigga I know it I'm not stupid I know that That's the movie right there Every movie you see As soon as they get it together They gone That's the movie for real Someone's supposed to be the villain Television It tells you a vision You gotta be very careful With that too Just thinking about it Even these things right here These phones right here They tell you a vision too So at the end of the day We gotta start looking at Like I said Let's get a lot of praying done Before we get in trouble Let's pray about things that's Gonna happen So it can happen in a positive So how do you think How much impact do you think It'll have on your life To speak positive A lot man You don't say you manifested it
