 It did cost people to go out to the polls. First to put them girls down and took up that ballot, you know? Right. You know, you can kill as many niggas you want, as long as you don't go to the polls. Don't boss talk one-on-one, one-on-one. Here we go and talk. Wow, I want to shift gears for a second, man. Jay Prince, like, to me, you know, he a little older than us, you know? To you, like, all the time he's been supportive, he's more like a brother or uncle. Or uncle? Yeah. And when was the first time that you met Jay Prince? Like, y'all have a relationship. I know y'all, like, that's your guy, and he's a good dude. You know what I'm saying? I'm from Texas, so you know what I'm saying? I'm riding. When he come to Texas, that's my guy. But and the music, the hip hop is crazy for me and him. I got to get with him. But, like, when was the first time, y'all, you took notice of Jay Prince and, you know? OK, just growing up in hip hop, like, when we, like me. So when we started doing shows, I used to pick the groups that used to, um, that we were going to have on the shows. OK. So Ghetto Boys was one of the groups, like. We used to use a promoter. Yeah, we used to do promoters. Big time promoter. Yeah, for the end it was. Really, was it fun? Like, y'all, y'all had the movement going, like, I'm breaking people to town, and we go, they going to be here? Yeah, it was fun. Everybody know you for that, Larry? I was, you know, I was, uh, I was a kid, but the fact that we did shows, I was. In 2019? Oh, 19. Ooh, it was 19. I remember when I was 19, Larry. That was a big time moment. Yeah, I was in college. I would, I would pick the groups. I would come back home for the shows, what have you. So, but back then we were doing the shows and we did the Ghetto Boys. And after they came and seen what we had going on, because they said everybody, they wasn't really doing arena shows, not black people. OK. You know what I mean? They had shows, but black people wasn't the ones putting on these shows. So we had arena in the city that we used to do shows at. And, uh, you know, nothing but black people there. And they like, oh, man. So they told Jay, because Jay didn't come in first. It was chief coming. OK, yeah. Big chief. Yeah, so he telling him about what it was and how the love that they got and how they was protected and supported. So it's like, you got to meet Jay. And we kept having him come in. So you brought Big Chief. Big Chief. Big Chief. And after. The Ghetto Boys. Yeah. OK. We used to do all the. Ghetto Boys. All the Rappelites roster pretty much. They, if they wanted to bring somebody or they had a new artist, it's like, OK, we go bring. So that was a spot for they can come and help introduce they artists to this market coming to our shows. How big was the arena? Man, it was the amphitheater. I want to say, hell, we had to look it up to Chicago amphitheater, but it had to hold 10,000 people. You know, they used to do the circus and stuff before I was born there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's been around. My mother didn't really knew about it because it was there when they was kids. Wow. Y'all packed that thing out? Yeah, we packed it out. So OK, so and Jay, when he finally comes up, because I really wanted to get this through, I was excited about it. I'm like, man, I'm asking how he really like when it was how when y'all first met. And I know he I definitely want to get into that fact that your father been on the album. But like, how was it when you link with it? I mean, like when you first met him? I mean, it was like you. I was a fan of it. So it was just strange that these people that I heard the names and the music and, you know, and I'm actually here with them, not just here with them, but actually hanging out with them. Yeah, sitting there eating and talking. And, you know, it was. It was interesting situation. Yeah, like, OK, I'm it was some people I look up to and we, you know, building the bond. So it was good. Man, I love it, man. I ain't going to lie because I know that's that. I mean, I remember Jason and they embraced him in Chicago. And that was a part of that embracing the fact that he was he was promoting. He was out here trying to figure it out. Right. Yeah. And the hip hop was huge then for us, man. And it was it was our own, you know, it was a family thing. Like, my my father would be in jail, like sit down and study stuff and can see the vision and from what he was talking to. So, you know, he kind of helped. He directed us towards. Let's do these shows. OK, and and speaking of your father, like when when he first linked with Jay Prince, did you know that he had linked or did you know he didn't link with. So he couldn't link when he was there. It's just that we. Well, I'm talking about how did he, how did they end up? I want to get into this, this him being on that 1996. And like, like, how do you end up being on there? You got me. But they worried about the kids because the youth is more faster now than it was in the cool game. Because we. So after we, after we started doing the shows and we had them a couple of times and then Jay finally came, you know, and the bond started from there. He used to be at a talk on the phone because he was in a federal place. Finally, these huggies are cold out this way. They won't see me do nothing. They won't let my family make no money. So then, you know, we wind up putting them on the phone. But he's seeing who we are and what we had going on. So it was interesting to him. OK. And wow, who is this that had these people together like this, had a behavior like this, had the people moving like this. And so anyway, he wound up just talking to him on the phone. And that's how the resurrection thing happened. Yeah, we kept going. He used to put our clothing line in the album. Get old boys. Where I get old prisoners, yeah. Looking inside of the get old boys album cover order from there. We're going to open the album covers. Like, we just it was a good relationship. We bonded and we moved forward wherever we could assist each other. You know, when you first heard your father on the resurrection and just heard, I know what did you think about it when you first heard it? They piece of tissue to what I said, because I want to do, you know, I don't feel what they've been, you know, a couple of what they come from. I think that, you know, I was amazed. That's the that was part of what his message was. And that's who he is. That's dope, man. You know, that's part of, you know, kind of how I move forward with that type of thing in my head. And that's how that's what that's who I want him to be. That's where his legacy should be things of that nature, like it was great. In nineteen ninety six, he said, you got we got to go to the polls. You know, I'm moving my butt so they can see me rebellious niggas. See, I'm telling these young boys to put them girls down and took up that ballot. You know, you know what I mean? And and you know what I mean? You know, almost to if you know, if we don't do something, it's going to it's going to really like it's going to come now. When I I did my eyes pretty much, you know, did it not seem like prophecy when you look at you look at our communities and what's going on right now. Yeah, yeah, definitely. That's why that's why. So I ain't alive when I listen at him. I still listen to it, to be honest with you. It was like a prophecy. It's still touching. You know what I mean? Like it's something that being from the south, you know what I mean? And then hearing something like that, I mean, just for me, I can only speak for me because, you know, I listened to that whole album. You know, that that album with the Resurrection was a dope album. You know what I mean? And to hear that and there was just some songs on there, man. Get a boy, some girls and all. Kind of stuff, man. It was just a bunch of stuff on there that was relatable and was jamming. You know, I had two 18s in the trunk. I ain't going to never forget it. I was banging it out, man. Hey, I had a bazooka tooth. Oh, yeah, I have 45s on each speaker. Man, don't play. You remember them punch 45? Oh, they were serious. You know what I'm saying? I had a deep drop when I got there. I had a little firebird, man. It had a little trunk in the back of the car to sit down there. So it's like the car really was made to a box almost. Yeah, I cut the trunk out, you know, or the cut this, like, like you could sit in that backseat, but that metal wasn't there. You know what I'm saying? So I could only fit two 18s in the back of that thing. Yeah. And I had the two punch 45s and I had dropped that damn car to low because every time I moved that over. So I didn't know. I didn't know. But I had put some little clamps on it. Just do what you want. But you don't know what you can. But that that album is during that time, you know, like and in the 90s, man, like those those some great times, man. So it had meaning to them. You know, it was different. It was hip hop and it had had meaning. They were saying something. It did. You know, they talked about what was going on. But it wasn't just the the downside of it. Like it was some uplifting music along with it. Yeah. Though they talked about what was going on the streets and what have you. They still it was still some hope in there. It wasn't hopeless. It was good music, man. Great music, actually, man. And I know Jay, that's one that I know it stands out, bro. It's not all on Willa D and all it got to because it was just he was man. Willa D was talking something. He was in the politics bad. Like he was the one that when I listened to it, I mean, don't get me wrong. Scarface was jamming. What the fuck seen this nigga bite the bullet and fucked him up. But Willa D was a political like he won't he won't own it. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Do I give him a buck? Yo, you cry. We ain't got a cry no more. You going to see the bubble window and that dynamic is what kind of put it together. Yeah. When you got the same, same, it's not. It's good, but just having that dynamic of one person bringing this, one person bringing this, one person bringing that. It all go together, kind of like a relationship. I got to ask you which one. What's your favorite ghetto boys song? My favorite ghetto boys song. Come on, man. This is that's that's it. I'm going to have to come back to it. Give me a second. Let me say about it. What's your favorite? Oh, man, I'm going to be honest with you. It's a it. That's a that's a hard question to be honest with. And then the bad part about that is because it's so many songs, though, for real, I just listen to the music. I don't really know the names. I am to meet. She's horrible with names. Yeah, I ain't going to lie. Well, do the chorus. I've messed that up, too, man. I'll be in here home. You know, when you don't remember the word, you'll start. You'll make up something just to try to make sure you don't mess it up. You know what I'm saying? So I mean, you know, when you think about just, you know, like I said, Jane, I'm coming all the way up here like that. Music was different. The 90s was different, you know? But like I said, I never forget the way your father approached that whole situation for us when he was talking on the phone. It was it put life in our people, man. You know that, even with him being locked up, they couldn't lock up the fact that he still could put life. And that did cause people to go out to the polls. What's to put them girls down and took up that ballot, you know? You know, you can kill as many as you want. Don't you go to the polls? I guarantee things we do now cause people to do certain things. He was rocking the vote before on a diddy in him. There you go. That was way before it's time. You know what I'm saying?
