 Even though he was living like he was living, he had a different spirit. You know what I'm saying? And I got to tell people right now, if Slim wouldn't have got killed, the whole music scene in New Orleans would be different because he was able to work with everybody, he wanted to work with everybody. And were you still in New Orleans when he passed? A matter of fact, yes. I was, a matter of fact, it was so sad because when he passed, I was still working at Peaches. Wow. Really? Really? Yeah, I was still at Peaches because I remember. So you were in that whole year, right before you met him, you met him within that year. And that short period. And at the same time, he passed. And you got to value your time because he was, when I was just seeing him at the club, the Sam Club that C had issued, I was in there that night too. Soon as all of us was in there. You was there when C had issued? Yeah, when that happened. Okay, okay. I was in the Sam Club because it was on the West Bank, one firm. It was right there in Harvard, one firm. So but every weekend on Saturday, we used to be there and he's always telling me like, man, book the studio, you know, we're going to go do the music. But at this time, I'm still trying to get my balance. I'm just coming home. I got three boys at the house, plus I did friends still, I think I got it like that. You know what I'm saying? Right. I don't know what I thought he was going to get killed because having him and four on a song together would have been so fire. You know what I'm saying? So I remember hearing, I was leaving Peaches who came on a radio and they said it. And soon they said it, my youngest son rung my phone and I called the phone and he was like, that, it killed Soldier Slim. I was like, I know. He's like that. Why, why did it kill him? I'm like, son, I'm on my way home. I talk to him. I get home. So when I get home, I goes in the house. He see me. He like just standing there waiting for you to say something. And I ain't got no answers. So I'm like, son, let me take a shower. I ain't talked to him about it since, you know what I'm saying? He lost his older brother right after that. You know what I'm saying? But it's just like, it's just so much trauma that we've been going through all our life. You know what I'm saying? But yeah, I was still there when that, when that happened. And so you and, and what, what, um, how was the city during that time? Like was he as impactful? Because today when you go to New Orleans and you mentioned any rapper, nobody has the essence, nobody has the feel of talking about Soldier Slim, uh, uh, that he has. Like you can talk about a P and all of them, but you can talk about a baby Birdman, all of them. But when you talk about Soldier Slim, there's a difference. I'm telling you. It is. And I want to know just from your perspective, why is that? Because even though he was living like he was living, he had a different spirit. You know what I'm saying? And I got to talk to people right now. If Slim wasn't a guy killed, the whole music scene in New Orleans would be a different because he was able to work with everybody. He wanted to work with everybody. You know what I'm saying? Just like I say, when he seen me and he came to me like that, a lot of people not going to do that. You know what I'm saying? Because even like maybe like three weeks before he got here, it could have been a month when I see him at the club. Because you know, everybody want to try to charge. You know what I'm saying? See, I don't do stuff like that. If I can work with him, I'll work with you. But everybody else, everything, they can have money, but it's still going to hustle, still help you up. They're going to try to hustle. So I seen Slim. I said, Slim, I said, what you going to hit me for a verse? And he told me. He said, Mojo, you real, I'm real. Book the studio. Slim going to be there. That's what he told me. He said, man, we ain't going to do one. We're going to drop some stuff for the city. You know what I'm saying? Because he knew what I did in the early nineties. You know what I'm saying? I turned the city up on a real gangsta music. You know what I'm saying? That's why he said, y'all, we come up off your music. You know what I'm saying? Like a lot of people when they let a soldier, they'll, like they hear a full shot. They're like, I hear a lot of soldier. But you know, that's who they come up listening to. You know what I'm saying? But he was like that. So what he was living at, why I'm going to say he was living at West Mama. I thought he was that girl lived down there. It was right down from Peaches. So what I used to do every evening, I'll be at Peaches. And you know, what Surinus was at was right down with all the females paying. So when I ain't doing nothing, I'm spending my time at the door. I'm just coming home. I'm at the door. I'm looking. So he'll pull up in a Cadillac with the female. So he knew I'm in there. So he's looking. And when he sent me down, he went, why? Let's go to the studio right now. Why was I mobile Joe? I'm like, I'm like, man, you know, because I ain't right right now. You don't send a really maneuver. But yeah, like slow. But it's not crazy that a lot of people always talk so good about him. He was a solid one. But then we've met people who from New Orleans, who say that back then when Slim was actually alive, people didn't give him as much love back then compared to now being passed away. So, you know, when we tell them that, no, when we go down there, everybody loved him. This, this, this. And they're like, man, I was born and raised down there. When he was living, they wasn't giving him as much love as how they're giving him now. Yeah. Is that true? Yep. Yep. It's like that. But they didn't realize his value. And you know, you don't know. You don't miss nothing. You just go. You move back and think like you just thought about those recollections of what happened. You be like, man, that dude was the truth. Yeah. And come like that. Yeah. And I feel bad because I feel like I let him down. You know what I'm saying? Because that's something he wanted to do. You know what I'm saying? Because he come up, listen to Rue's juvenile dog. I was like, he told me this. Like, he never, just an order like that. And he was like, and I was like, damn, I should have. I could have made it happen, but I didn't push the ruler. You know what I'm saying? But I wish I would have because you never know.
