You one of them guys, you know what I'm saying? You got the star power to look. You know what I'm saying? What's he saying? Yeah, he does. That's you, man. Because all I can do is remember him and straight out of contact. That's all I'm like, yeah, you. Man, I mean, it wasn't hard to prepare for something like that. You just had that scene like, I'm a killer. How did you end up even getting in that situation? Really, when I, once I, well, I had a mutual friend that was working with F. Gary Gray on the movie. Okay. So they got in contact with me and, you know, I had went up there and basically we had to switch up, switch up the script, switch up the name of the character and shit like that. Cause I just wanted to be more into what it, you know what it is. It was just a good look, came out good, everybody loved it and now it's another blessing in my life right there. Who choked? Like who, how did you, you didn't know none of these people, how did they call you or what? Well, F. Gary Gray, he just said he been following me. He liked my image and he just saw me in the movie. So he just, you know, basically You fit them all. Right apart in there, he is. Man, you know, that's dope when you really, when the work pays off. Like you been putting it down for some years. When it comes to the music scene and all that stuff. So I know how, I know how my wife feels. I'm a shut up because she wants to know like the street you was on when you used to walk to school as a little kid type. She feel to go down through there with you. I'm not like that. I like to get to the juices stuff, nigga. I'm going to be over with cash, money, all this stuff. I want to know how this happened. But she got on with doing, I got to respect them. Yeah. Cause I want to know how you were raised, where you were raised, environment you were raised in. I mean, siblings, mom, dad, grandma, anything and everything that you feel comfortable in telling us about. Anything, but you know, I wasn't going to say it was just, I was raising like a normal household, I would say. You get me? It's just, I grew up, it was two of my sisters, my mom, my father, you know, he was an army veteran. He passed away now. Rest in peace. Rest in peace pops. Yeah, but I always had like a different thought about different things and how to carry myself when I was the one outside the house and when I was the one inside the house, you know. So I guess that always helped me, you know what I mean? Yeah. Being one that grew up in Compton, man, up in Compton. I done been told how to say it, because it doesn't check me already. Oh, gee, nigga, I told them all to check me. Oh, you know menace? I said, I know, I'm getting to know him, nigga. That's my guy, you know, he's like, oh, he's a good dude, man. Everybody love you, bro. Even them dudes just left it like he family. Like you got a good report in the city, bro. I spread a lot of love. You feel me? Yeah. I spread a lot of love. Everything positive I fuck with everybody. Wow. It ain't nothing behind it, behind it. Behind the carpet and then like that. Yeah. So straight up. So just being around like the whole Compton area, just tell us how it was like when you first, you know, start coming up and start understanding the streets and like just like how I'm a move, where I'm a go, like who you, how was you linked in, like, you know? Yeah, well, like in my neighborhood. Yeah, a neighborhood. And they say that, well, I grew up playing sports, like basketball. Oh, you played at ball? Yeah, you're tall. You had some? Yeah, it's like. You take a nigga? I could have went to college. College, I just, my grades and shit was bad, so that was all, you know, on my behalf right there. My girl. How many kids you have? I got five kids. Wow. Yeah, I got a brand new baby. That's the one we seen. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That boy ready, right? Now I got a 14. Are you done? Nah, I want like 10 kids. I got a 14 year old, 11 year old, 10 year old, eight year old, and you know. So you start, so what happened to the gap? Eight year old and then dropped to him? Well, I was doing a lot of just moving around and not trying to have a baby at the time. Oh, okay. Yeah, you were. But you were on 10. Yeah. Wow. How many boys, how many girls? How many I got right now? Yeah. How many boys and two girls? And two girls, okay. He moved with precision. Yeah, yeah, I think you're not playing. Got a, got a, I wasn't. Oh, I said he could come over here if you wanted to take, if you wanted to do, was he trying to take pictures of you? Nah, he's just videoing. Oh, okay, I was gonna say if he wanted to do one of you. In Japan, he actually had artists out there too. Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So basically, how did you and him link? Man, he met through mutual people, but we just been grinding together. Grinding together? After that, yeah, yeah, yeah. He got a lot of city doing a lot going on. That's crazy. The same culture that we have over there they have. What's his name? John Doe. John Doe. John Doe. John Doe in the building. He's behind the scenes doing his thing around his thing. You know what I'm talking about? Yes, sir. Man, John Doe in the building, man. So if you went over there, you would swear that you was another too. Oh, yeah? Yeah, he got low-riders, he got all types of shit over there. That's Doe, man. I know, man. That's right. Man, so when you think about, like I said, the come-up scene, you would link with the game. Yeah, I came up with the game. Yeah, so did you take that nigga to the hoop or what? No, he good at basketball. He good at basketball, he good at rapping, do you feel me? Yeah, yeah. You can't fuck with him, man. That boy be rapping, man. That's one of the ones right there, like, when you think of this place right here, this nigga is like... Yeah, nah. You know, the only nigga I seen in my eyes that 50 Cent had issues like, this nigga crazy. That would just go, like, he just, half of the time, we didn't even know, like, what the fuck was gonna happen next, you feel me? Come out his room, you just see what's happening right now. When did y'all link, how old was you? I link with game probably in, I was about 19. 19? Yeah, this is really when he was getting this shit with Dr. Dre. Yeah. So we had a mutual friend too, shout out to Michael Hunt. Okay. We played ball together and shit like that. So, you know, I was, had an influence in the hood and streets and shit like that so they was really telling me to just come fuck with him. You feel me? Just come hold him down because they want to know some real niggas around. Yeah. So that's kinda how I really got in there. And I was playing sports at the time for like Southwest College. Okay. And then I just fell in love with the music. Man, and there is this history, huh? Like, when you think about the, you and like the South, for some reason Lil Wayne and them have a real connection to this L.A. culture. When I look at Birdman and them and I've interviewed people and I always be like, dang honey, they love the L.A. culture. They lived out the blood and all that. The colors, they whole set up is funny because they name cash money after that movie. But then, that's in New York. But then you end up looking like the people of L.A., you know what I'm saying? Do you ever think about that? I've been Birdman a long time. See, yeah, Wayne, Wayne the good dude. Wayne the good dude. Me and Wayne had a relationship before me and Birdman did. Yeah, y'all did. Wayne is a good dude, man. So Wayne, like you guys, like when you look at Birdman and that whole, they had a, was it, you was with them before they did what they called the cash money West Coast? Or did you? Yeah. You was before that, right? Yeah, yeah, thanks. Yeah, so how did y'all end up, you know, even putting it had to be with the game or something? No, no, it wasn't. It wasn't? No, no. It was just, I think I was on a roll somewhere. Then I ran into Birdman and he was telling me that he really wanted to fuck with me. It was my situation. So after that, we had chopped it up and probably like a month later, I was on the road with Birdman. And we was just, you know, getting in, building on the music, having a bunch of conversations and he was telling me like, there's too many rappers in there, ain't no CEO, that's why niggas ain't getting looked out for that's why this and this, you feel me? So kind of, I did my project, I was supposed to do with them, but after that, it was, you know, the option. So I kind of took that to come back and build with, you know, my people went and we'll be up to now, you feel me? Wow. But Birdman and Wayne, you know, they did so much for me in every different way you think about, you know, I gotta respect them forever. Yeah, like, like it's not, I talked to King Noor, he the guy that rocked with them. You heard, you know, King Noor, they've been on my show. They always show me love, man. It's people that have been around him from Nicki, natural to everybody that been around him. God keeps putting me into Mr. People that rock with him. I know I get the interview in one day. You know what I'm saying? Cause I was like, man, I'm a big, she know I am about Birdman. Like this nigga boss, I love boss talk, you know what I'm saying? So it's like this dude here, man, and everybody's story be like that, you know? And it's like genuine, you know what I'm saying? Like you did, how did the song come about with Lil Wayne? I had, really, me and Wayne was real close at this time. So the game had me hit him up so he could get verses from Wayne. So one day I'm like, fuck it, I hit him for myself. Oh! You know what I mean? So he did the verse for me and then he was getting ready to go to jail. He had called me like, hey, you want me to try and shoot the video? I'm like, hell yeah. So he's like, I'll be out there on Wednesday. Let's shoot it Wednesday. And that was before jail? That was before he went to jail. So he pulled out and shot the video. Why do you think he picked that time to do it? Just he wanted to get something out before he went? He was probably in LA and he probably just wanted to work. Yeah, he wanted to just make sure that he could fulfill promises. Yeah, cause he was doing so many features and everything. Cause he knew it's going to be gone for a minute, so. Yeah. He probably wanted all that shit to come out collectively. Yeah, trying to figure out a way to stay relevant until he got back. Cause he knew his beard wasn't that long. He didn't have a long beard. Like something that was going in there and the niggas don't know when to get out. In the entertainment a year away, that's a long time. Do you think that, like it's a plot against you guys? Like you see how many times people be like, the artists would catch up, boots on side of the road, hollering like, nigga, I'm really, I think they're gonna go it in, nigga. Do you think it's something like a special kind of way that they treat y'all in a bad way? You get a bad rap for you. I mean, from what I came across personally, like sometimes cops do have like a bad, you know, day or something like that. And probably have an attitude or something with you. But at the end of the day, you gotta know how to deal with people yourself. That's real. So I feel like most people put, put theyself in a position that they do. Either with a ego or, you know, anything else. How do you stay so damn level headed, man? I don't like going to jail. I'm like, I don't wanna go to jail. You know, I'm the same way. And I had the same experience being one that been through a lot. You know what I'm saying? Like a lot of times, I remember one night I got jiggy with the laws. I'm like, nigga, what you doing that to him for my partner? Then he can tell me, you move while I put my foot in your chest. And I was trying to flex, you know what I'm saying? The next thing you know, I'm in the back of the car too. I'm behind, what you saying makes sense? And I'm going to jail. Like, damn, I should have just shut up, you know what I'm saying? I'm in the car with my boy. Listen, he's looking at the car crazy. Turn around, pull his over. You feel me? Like, I fucking me foe. Exactly, you can't do it. Like, what you like, I fucking me foe. Like, yeah, I'm gonna put your bitch ass in the back of the car. He said put your daughter in the back seat with me and see what I would do. He's gonna put him in the back of the car and whoop his ass, bro. Wow. It's a black cop with me, it's a white cop with him. So the black cop right there, I'm like, man, you don't act like you don't see that going on. He looked at me dead in my eyes and he said, see what? You feel me? I'm like, shit, all right. Damn. I mean, nothing to do with it. Wow. The white cop up in the door said, you got something to say? I'm like, hell no. They kinda got the leverage on you. You know what I'm saying? Thanks. Man, and then the reputation that they hold, you thinking they go get a clue, right? Man, just get this shit over with. So how do you perform in front of masses of people, man? You've had to do that. You know what I'm saying? I talked to one of my cast men, shout out to High Boy Wiz, he was like, man, these folks make me nervous. When I go, he was young, he a youngster. He like, when I go out there and look, man, that crowd, man, it's a lot of people out there. I said, what the? He's like, Gucci there with me. It's a lot of people out there. It is, it is. So how do you deal with that? I mean, first coming in, when I first came into my career, it's like kind of crazy been around. A lot of people I didn't know, you're filming people looking at you and shit like that. Like I used to have to call homies like, hey, you think they're looking at you, man? And kind of find out they was fans, you feel me? But I don't know, I just, I just don't worry about too much shit like that. And it's just a different energy that come while I'm on stage. And I just want to touch everybody. So every show that I have, I go to the back of the motherfucker, no matter where we at. You do? Every show. We're gonna climb it, we're gonna go all the way up, all the way to the back. We're gonna make sure you deal with all the pigs. So I'm on everybody level every time. Wow, that's love too. Do you take pictures with your fans and all that every time? The last one, if you want it, I'm here. Wow. Who was that told us that like, he gonna take pictures with everybody? That was what Kiki told me that. He was like, pow wow, gonna take pictures with everybody. I didn't used to do that. And I'm so privileged to be in this position right here, you feel me? Yeah. So I like, when I came up on the show. How did you learn that? Cause I saw artists and found out what it really was or how they was really acting and it made me, you know, not wanting to do something to them. You know what I'm saying? And the people that you come across, like they deserve like, it's what I mean like, if they see you want to take a picture, they deserve that. Cause I used to always say like, you know what comes with the business in the first place. So why go into this business if you're not ready to deal with your fans? Cause some people are like, all I want to do is the music. I don't want to do nothing else. Yeah, it ain't gonna have to work. It comes with a package. Yeah. Like it's so many stories we hear doing this type of work. It's like, little Ronnie told us like, somebody tattooed their name on here. He couldn't believe he like, I wouldn't have done it. But it was like, they love him so much they tattooed their name on them. Like it showed it to him. Like, yeah, look, like, what the hell? That's what you call a super fan. Hell yeah. I mean, it's a lover. I embrace all that stuff. I got people out the country with my face tattooed on them. Oh really? Hell yeah. Is that the craziest thing a fan ever done? Yeah, well. What's the craziest thing? Yeah, I would say so. I would say so. You don't have no females trying to, you know, break into your house and be in the bed waiting on you. They're having a little way. They're having a little way. They're having somebody else. Somebody else. Who else? I saw that as a kid. I saw that, I saw it right up on it like two days ago. Some other celebrity, it was a white guy, some female broke into his house, an artist and was in there waiting on him. In the bed. They send that to many people in their house. In their house, right. Like nobody come to my house. Nobody. My neighbors is a, I mean my neighbors is asians in there, and it is. It is. Right, right. If I see, if I see a nigga look like me, I'm gonna ask you about it. What is he doing over here? You getting there? Don't listen to him. No, you don't live there. Who you living with? So, when you think about just, what's your favorite, like outside of LA, what's your favorite place to perform in? I'm like, man, it's the small places, man. That'd be the ones, don't it? Yeah, like, shit, North and South Carolina. It's a lot of places in the world. I like performing everywhere, but just like deep in the South and shit like that, it just be a different, you know. You get more love. It's just a different feeling. Feel me like everybody is like, you come here and niggas just gonna like, look at you and shit like that. They feel in the vibe, but they ain't gonna let it know, it be known. They don't want it, they want to be two gangs. Yeah, they ain't gangsta with it. But, you know, I like it when in places it's termed up where this is what it is to do, you feel me? I'm gonna tell you, like when we walked out of here, a while ago, we went up on the roof and took some pictures and it was like three or four people standing there and being from Texas, three or four people standing there, three or four people get spoke to. But here they don't do that. They don't talk to people. But tell them. That's the same like New York. New York is doing it. New York the same way we go up there, like, but in the South, like if you walk in, I don't even care, I don't care about your tattoos, none of that. I'm like, what's up, man? I might not even know you, but I'm just gonna do it because she know how I am. I don't mean no damn strangers, cause you never know, better than you black. I'll be like, hell no, we might have to get back to back. What the hell are you trying to do? What's up, bro, you good? What's up? No, my cousins from out here, they basically come, they used to be faster than us. They'll come down. They're like, I never forget these niggas were like, they let you pump the gas first down there. I'm like, yeah, nigga, what? These niggas trippin', they think like, we better go, then they like, you a buster, like if you don't steal the gas, like, you a, but they get mad at them, like, I don't know these people. They was so, they trippin', man, they come down to the wind, bro, and we took them to Shreveport, the same thing. They wanna check the other niggas to see if they really who they saying they is. I'm like, nigga, lead them niggas alone. These my first cousins, so we always, I would always laugh at how different we was, but we still a niggas, like, like Jay said. No, it's definitely different. It's very different. Like, when you went to the sound, what was something that stuck out to you, like they didn't, you guys didn't even rock with up here. Man, all these niggas the same, man, I ain't gon' lie. But really, with me, it was like the food difference, I think. But the food different? Yeah, it wasn't really about like, how they act or nothin' like that. Man, when I seen, niggas a little, all right, I'm gonna say this, niggas kinda scary on this side, bro, like sneaking. You feel me? That's something you see. Yeah, they sneaky. But it's different, though, called Hispanics. Like, I got an old school. They don't never say like, nice car, they just stare. That kinda weird me out. You know what I'm sayin'? I'm like, well, they don't just say it's a nice car. What they tryin' to think? I don't know what you do. Nigga, you don't. Yeah, I don't want you to know what they do. Nigga, I'm gonna get this one, nigga. Yeah. Thanks. Nah, man, it's just, it's a different way. I love getting off the plane in different places. You know, I am Philadelphia. Wherever I go, I like to just get off and just, like you just said, test the temperature of other people. Like, I be tryin' to figure everything out in the city when I get there. I go to the hood. I done been to Compton. I just had to go when I, I'm like, oh, what they do over here? You know what I'm sayin'? Nigga knows his hell. Like, my people over here, yeah. But no, you don't wanna get caught up when it's Chicago, like, it's like, it's Chicago is the same thing. South side of the west side, yeah. What they doin' over here? But like, damn, they do somethin' cause Nigga be talkin', yeah. Nah, it's cool, it's cool. You have a problem in Chicago. I just got back. I be goin' over, I be trippin', I be like tryin' to figure this stuff out, man. But when you perform in Chicago, how is it? Have you performed over there? Yeah, I performed there before. It's cool. It's cool. What's the, so? I wanted to ask, since you are in straight out of Compton, have you had or, are you workin' on any of the film right now? Oh, yeah, I did Fatale, that came out last year. Hilary Swain, Michael E. Lee, Tyrant Turner. Wow. Directed by Dion Taylor, South of the Dion. I did BET Tales with everybody. Ooh! I did Kansas City, Double Crosswords, Crossroads. I did, um... And these were major roles or small roles? Yeah. Yep, yep. Okay. And you have anything comin' out that hasn't been out yet? Yeah, we really, we're startin' to get everything settled to do the series for OG Two-Tongue character from start out at Compton. Yeah. So we startin' to get that done. We should be shooting that by next year. And then I did Baby Gancer. That's a movie that was produced and written and put together by Bluzz and Chris from here in California in Los Angeles. So that was a big thing that we did. We all worked on that together. Did you end up doin' any acting classes? Nah, I, well, I did Snowfall for John Singleton and the first time he talked to me, he was like, I think you should... She did some acting. I think she did a couple acting classes. She lost her parts. You got it. I was like, shit. Man, John Singleton. And you did? Yeah, yeah. I went, I went like twice, but... He didn't like it. Acting class, like, went around a bunch of crazy people. They be different. That's what somebody told me. Everybody just in their own world. Bro, Columbus Chargers left here and I promise you, they crazy. They different, bro. The real hardcore, serious actors. It's, he was just here and now I'm like, this nigga here, he can turn it on and turn it off, baby. It's weird to me. I'm like, she asked him about a sex scene and about how, he's like, it's nothing. It's like going to work. He's like, they serious as hell, bro. Like, it's like going to work and going on. But we asked somebody else about it too. And they said the first time they went, they'll tell you to like, think of it in motion and just want you to do everything on the spot. Scenarios and you're supposed to just do it. And they were like, it's not that easy the way how people make it sound at all. Especially with a bunch of strangers in the room and shit like that. Everybody have, ain't nobody that comfortable like to just bust it down, you know what I'm saying? Like she Kevin Hart or somebody. No, but the reason why, the reason why I asked you that because right now in majority of your roles, you played almost the same type of character, right? But in order for you to change and if they wanted you to play a different kind of role, that's why I was wondering if you went to class to be able to learn all of those type of... Oh, no, for the next five years, for the next five more years, I'm gonna be the gangster in the movies. The gangster in the movies. Then when we start shooting our movies and they gonna get to see the lawyers and the doctors come up out of me. Oh, God, God, God, God. Yeah, we gotta have the power for it though, they ain't gonna give it to us like that. I gotta ask Fruitown, the difference between living there, I mean being there and being anywhere else, growing up like, I've heard Nickerson and all these different hoods, like what's the difference in Fruitown? I mean, the big difference is I would say my older homies, that was the influencers that was coming up for us. You feel me? I feel like that was different. They always steered me in the right direction. You feel me? Make sure I wasn't just out here hanging out and never put a gun in my hands. Never put no drugs in my hands. If I was supposed to be somewhere, you give me, then they'll make sure I was there. Like, you know, I had a different set of OGs around me. They felt, it was rooms. But I like the fact that you listened because when we were talking to someone earlier, we were talking about Tupac and they were feeling like they should have protected him more and not have him out there protecting him as the artist. You know what I mean? But then they said, well, if you know Tupac, the way he was, he not gonna listen. He gonna do what he wanna do anyway. Well, the thing about that part is like even some of my older homies, like I was listening to them, but I feel it was holding me back from my career and what I was doing. Yeah. But at the end of the day, I had to tell them, like, you own the fish market. You got this, you got this, going on, you got this, going on. This is all I do, you feel me? So I kinda need to make my own choices and moves and decisions no matter how they feel about it because this is what I have going on. Man, that boy got on that bus, OG, too, Tupac. Man, like you got on that thing, it was so real. I love that scene, bro, man. Hey, look out, dawg. Bro, I ain't lying, you killed that old bro. Like you went in, like I believed it, bro. I believed it. I'm not playing, when you got on that whole, you was like, yeah, nigga, I could be the one to kill your ass, nigga. Yeah, how many times you had to do that? When I first had, when I was getting the shit right, I had to ask for like a little 10 minute break or I didn't beat myself up real fast and show me the shot. Come back and realize it's like, I had to really act like it was a show, act like I was performing, you know what I mean? Yeah. Fitting like, like I was an acting class, you know what I mean? Fitting like that. So once I had got that message, then it was just all the way to go. Once I knew everybody was here for me, they spent $350,000 today. Just for you to do that scene. Let me go do my thing, you know what I mean? That helped that work. And it was a good thing. After I did that scene, Dr. Drake came up to me like, man, you scared the shit out of me. That's what I'm telling you. You rocked that whole, man. I ain't just saying that nigga, that was one of the hardest scenes for me in the movie when you got on that damn bus. And they pull that whole, I said, oh, hell, it's going down, nigga. I feel like I'll watch the colors again, nigga. It went down. You took me back to colors, nigga. You know what I'm saying? That was definitely a good time to kick it off, man. And it was real good because it really didn't have nothing to do with the fucking movie. No, it didn't. It didn't. But you made that whole fit, though. That whoever directing you and that, but whatever they, did they write it on paper, nigga? How did they do it? They had to rewrite it. You had to rewrite it? Yeah, yeah, because you know how they write things, it's not like that. Yeah, you like this ain't it. This ain't it. That's not real. You told him like, you got to do it like this, nigga. He don't know the hood, nigga. Like you, I got to show this, nigga. There's a white ball, okay? So you, I want you to come in right here. How would I do this? Mr. Midas, Mr. Midas. How was you supposed to be? How did they write it? He don't give a damn about that, nigga. I probably got the paper somewhere after I had my hosting over with him. It was so long ago, I don't remember. That was like, what, seven years ago now. Yeah, man, but I'm telling you, that's the part of the movie when they told me that part, that's what's wrong. I was like, hell, you know, hey, get that nigga to me, man, you know? So, man, working with Chris Brown, how was that? Man, Chris is a beast, man. They say he better than Michael Jackson. These niggas is saying it. Man, I ain't got to be around Michael, so I would be able to tell you. That's what, that's the same thing, what's the name, said, that damn low Ds with the yellow Bs, man, would just say, man, I was at Chris' house all for a couple of days, nigga, like, like, it ain't no Chris, nigga. They gonna put Chris on Michael Jackson, nigga, around this whole, yeah. Chris Living. Yeah, yeah, he living good. How do you feel like I did, I had a clip to go viral about Chris, to be honest with you, it was like, Artola was on there, and he was like, he was on my show, and he was like, man, putting guns in the hood, that ain't helping nobody, man. He said, he need to check in. I said, damn, what do you think about, like, when people come to the city that really, you know, just embrace the culture, but really, they basically, they just, they love everybody here, and they, like me, hell, a nigga from the outside, they come in, but you wanna, you know, respect it, I ain't gonna say be a part of it, cause you can't be a part of something that you really didn't know would grow up in. How do you feel about that? I mean, nowadays, you're gonna be a guilty by affiliation anyway, the way they think about it. Y'all niggas hangin' out. Yeah, flat, so all that shit is out, that just go hand in hand. Yeah. But I never had no problem when I was feeling about what niggas got going on, other places, how they dressed, what they represented, because niggas need to clean shop from the inside before they start workin' about everything. You're right, like, we got some work to do. Like a month, fuck it. Really? Like, you got niggas here that ain't genuine? It's fakin' like a month, fuck it, so. I always felt like that about, that's what it was, I ain't never, you know, but I just feel like it's all love, cause I gotta go to different places, too. But it's like so many people love the culture, did you ever think like this coach, I done interviewed OGs, I done interviewed everybody, but like, people everywhere, do you really understand how much they embrace what you guys are? For sure, yeah. That's crazy, like, I mean, I ain't found myself, nigga, actin' like I was up for it. You know what I'm talkin' about? You gotta be careful, nigga. Nigga, I'll prove up real, nigga, screw dog, nigga, come on, nigga, what's up, nigga? You know, all you complain, huh? Down south, they say cuss a lot. They said a lot, they don't mean it like that. Like, if I said, my cousin, he won't even say it, and he think he's just with y'all, nigga, like, he be like, what's up, Kenfolk? I know how they tryin' not to say cuss. Yeah, he a bud, he really is. He ain't tryin' to hear it, man. You know what I'm talkin' about, really, that's right. But it's crazy, like, you guys culture, man, and really just, it spread it, bro. And the young niggas really made it to where it was still cool, like, it could've faded away. But y'all lived it, it had to embrace it as well, you know what I'm sayin'? So, do you have to be careful what side of, I'm not from here. So, you gotta name, like, you can't just go to this block or that block? I go where I wanna go. So, the earth is your turf? I'll be on my bike, I'll be by myself. I just left Snoopy Blue, my homeboy got killed. Snoopy Blue. Snoopy Blue is from East Coast. He just got killed, I just came from, he was buried right there before I came over here. Really? Yeah. What happened to him? He got killed, gang violence. Here recently? Yeah, about two weeks ago. So you had to go by and visit his grave? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Today they buried him. Oh, they buried him today, so you went by afterwards? Yeah. Man, that's, and how did you know him, like, just in the streets? Been out here, yeah, yeah, was he an artist? Yeah, he was an artist too. That's what it was. It's been a lot of artists from up here that really been like, I've seen one dude, I think he got stabbed in the neck or shot in the neck. Yeah, Draco. And then it was another one that got shot at a place, you know, it was one before that. Like it was like back to back to back. Nah, it was a couple of them, it was a couple for sure. How does that, that's why I go back to the rappers again. Like it's like, dang man, like it's a target thing. You got Dolph down in the south, Mothree from where we from. A lot of people be doing things besides rap. So what I'm saying is- It's a lot of Mothree though. Yeah, it ain't just killing the niggas at a rap. It's a lot of niggas dying period too. They killing, it's under, you know, under rap shit. Yeah. So do you think that like, when you think about just the coach up here and when you go to other cities, like people, they respecting like where are you from? They, it's niggas that, I ain't gonna, we wanna bring this up, but I gotta bring it up. I had Larry Hoover at my store Larry Hoover Junior and this nigga that was on my show, he just came by. He out there throwing the Hoover signs like this nigga is lost in the south. My old boy said to me, he said, look at this fool man, he think this nigga- It's from Hoover. Ah!
