 Switch to the regular schedule program because the streets been waiting on this shit long and long, man. We been over here trapping out this bandeau for the fucking longest. And we finally, finally, finally got one of the legends out of the bay to stop through the trap. You know how many times they have left your name in the comments. Hey, we seen you wearing a dope airship, man. We was juice. I've been told you to come down here and check on us. For real. You know what I'm saying? Cause it's like anybody with a radio knows exactly what you bring to the game, man. And it's like the Bay Area and your name is Sinan. Hyphy. You've been out there putting out, you're like, first of all, big salute man. Big salute. All the time. On the independent, man. And you've been real consistent and kicking their ass and coming up with classics and great shit. Come on, man. Why you keep doing me like that? Why? Oh, you own this problem's respect, man. I do, man. Hold him up. Lift him up. Put him up there. All right. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Phab is in the trap with us today. Man, there's a million good things you could say about this, man. I appreciate being here, man. We, for one love, which you are doing love, what you utilizing the platform for as far as, you know, just exposing the culture down here, man. And doing what you doing, man. We got a chance to come see y'all when y'all was in the Bay Area, man. I'm showing y'all some of the areas, bro. And the energy is always good, man. The fruitful, man. Like I said, man, we happy. I brought a guest with me, man. Why I got to be a guest? Why do I have to be a guest? That's how you bring a stranger. Everybody out there been beefing all day. This actually, this actually. That's a guest. Why you couldn't say I brought my uncle home, brother? Why you couldn't just say I brought my uncle home? Why you got to call me a guest? My bad. Don't do it like that, man. He's sick of your shit. He taught me this really young show and I'm just supposed to be here with you. Listen what I'm saying. It's a different approach to people when you say stuff like you said that's a guest. I mean, I really don't know him, but I brought him along. If you're the same, I brought a special guest. Now that's a little different. Okay, I brought a special guest. Let me say it again. I brought a special guest. Ooh, yeah. My uncle. Oh, okay. That makes me feel a little better. I mean, he a cold nigga, but I ain't heard none of his music. I don't know. I think it's gonna give me a case, man. Why? That's what this nigga do. That nigga's gonna give me all the case, man. He's gonna be into it all the time. Listen, he throw parties Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and sometimes Sunday. And he gonna be opening the store on time. You lying. Never on time for the store. He throw stripper parties all week, like after hours. And he get his outfit straight off the top. And don't pay for nothing. Don't be changing clothes in the middle of the store. You wanna have this conversation on here. You really wanna have a conversation about me getting some clothes. Well, I pay you on clothes. Oh, okay, yeah. That's the only time I pay you give out, boo. You like the strip clubs out here? The strip clubs. Probably never feel them. Oh, no. They really stripping out here. I'm trying to get them. Yeah, they don't get butt naked. Where we at? His parties? They be having all the shit. No, that ain't good. They don't even show pussy at your parties. They dress like they're gonna go. No, why? I'm gonna say why. Because in the Bay Area, we come from a pimp-like culture. Right. So a lot of the guys with money feel like if they throwing money, they tricking. Right. You understand me? So if girls, they get naked, then you get naked for some money. You understand me to do it? So who would be throwing money? We just be throwing it for what? For the look. There's a lot. You wanna lie on camera? We throw it cause we have fun. We getting money, so we gonna throw it. You know it. Tell them what you do. We're doing work for the people. For the look. No, no, no. For the girls. You doing work. We're taking care of single mothers. Thank you. Yeah. So why are you throwing money? We tell them take care of the guys. They gotta show pussy next time, huh? What? Wait a minute, y'all don't want it, but they don't get naked. Nah, that shit, y'all be mad as fuck if y'all came out to one of our parties. They will, though. They will get naked. They got naked on my birthday. They didn't get naked on my birthday, didn't they, View? We ain't got shit for this. They be having clothes. They be like in white T's and shit. Nah. Uh-uh. Y'all leave? Nah. This is Lana, bro. And this trickles come to the stage naked. They do. She drove their naked. She got out the car outside. Throwin' a suitcase, man. I ain't been there. Well, how you been? They don't even got outfits out here now. Put clothes on and still be naked. It's got naked clothes. Nah, it do. That shit, but it's different though. But we try to, you know, when we came to Atlanta, man, when I think one of my first time, short bra, me out here, I was a kid. And the culture was just like, when you short bro, you did Atlanta when you was a kid? Yeah. Man, what you mean? What you mean, bro? That's big, bro. Short 55, nigga, I'm 38. I'm saying, but like. You wasn't a kid, man. Who the fuck did the kids just go to Atlanta? I'm short. My mama was a player, man. And she was a player. She was just like, learn the game, you know? I'm a student of the game. I'm like, I'm a real child of the game. Like I come from some real culture. Like, you know, like how scrappy he is. How is mama like a player? Yeah, something like that. Like just like a real player. You feel me? She come from this culture where she just like, nigga, she know how to shit. She forward all the play. Like, I went out one night. I ain't know who she was when I first said, I'm like, man, who is that? Like, nigga, she the nigga out here. It was like, you feel me? But all the players, all the bosses, the gangsters, the D-Boys, they all like, what's that? And I'm like, man, I'm like, that what she remind me of my mama. And so I come from the game, man, like, you know? And my mama just always kept me around some game cause she knew that this would be the position that I would soon inherit. So I learned it to become wise, to come listen and become observant and all that shit, man. So that's how I got the game, man, from everybody. But when short brought me out here, I fell in love with the culture. I was like, yo, this shit was crazy. So we've been taking like that strip club shit back to the house, but we don't got cabaret lights and stuff and all our parties over it. Under. You gotta be under. You can't do it. You can't just have an establishment where you can actually throw a stripper party and you gotta be underground. Hopefully they don't have a cabaret license. So the girls can't like, it's actually illegal. That's why we gonna go to jail when they catch us. Well, they didn't really get a name. You just said on camera that I throw the parties. Now listen, hold it, no, you didn't say we. You said I. I just said they gonna go to jail when they catch us. I have, cause you already told everybody I do it. So how are you gonna take you to jail for what? I wanna bail you out. That's the purpose of having a rich nephew. You alright about that? And influence her, huh? Yeah. You still gonna make me sit a couple of days cause you funny like that. You the type of nigga that's saying, I'll call again, you gonna say, I'm gonna say nephew, you gonna say, I'm on my way down to the bail bomb. He can wait somewhere else until some city ain't got no business. Trust me, man. You gonna have me sit two days for you to come get me? Yeah, I think he meant jail your whole life. This the one you don't wanna be in there with. My nephew coming to get me. My nephew? Yeah, yeah. My nephew. At old school you might work on, lay down. Tomorrow come they gonna be like, where your nephew at? Yeah. Man, I'm telling you, my nephew coming, man. He never let me down. Would you say the song was up? Yeah, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, we heard of him. That's your nephew. Yeah, right. Well, how you get your start in the game? My rap started in the game. It came from, we were selling tapes at school. Me and my boy AC, AC was set up like, in our mind you couldn't tell us it wasn't a studio. But in his room, it was a little boom box. He broke up, y'all good, y'all all right? Yeah, it's just. Oh, all right, all right, I know. Yeah. She didn't handle it. Oh, okay. He broke off the headphones from like some Radio Shack headphones. Do they still got Radio Shack? No, no. Okay, so he broke off some headphones. He tied, like he, didn't he was creative, right? He glued and tied and taped one of the headphones on the wall. Like that was the mic included right there. And then the other one, he had the one tape and the other tape and we were recording. And if you messed up, you fucked up the whole tape. You had to run the whole Maxwell bag. That's how I knew it got good at Free Zone. You filming in one takes. Cause we couldn't afford to, you couldn't afford to mess up. Niggas was, we was, we was getting, we fucked up with 15, 16. Them tapes got expensive to a nigga. I was the youngest, I was like 14. They was like 16. And then we would take the tapes. Like we would do shit like beef and disc other high schools. Like our sports teams, like, you know what I'm saying? And we would disc them so, but it would be like an anthem. So at our basketball game nigga, we'd be playing it. And the school would be like, he ain't got a whole song about us. That would have. Like, so it was, that's what got us popular. That would have been the whole game. We didn't fight that. They got us popular when we was young, man. So we was selling tapes and we was like, you know, we was, we was young pretty boys, man was always like best dressed, fly athletes and all the girls liked it as man. So that she just kind of like carried over. I just kept working on my craft, opened a few doors, kept grinding. And you know, if you stay on your road, man, you stay on your path, eventually things will be getting to flourish for you. Got a chance to link up with, with a Jazzy, which was a big DJ in the Bay. He put out my first album. And linked up with Mac Dre, man. Like, you know, and Mac Dre personally reached out to me and was, man, helped change the nigga life, man, about just putting that stamp on me. But it was just sad, man. Cause he never got a chance to see my album come out. Like, you know, he died. He was a sassinated man right before the album came out and we just, we just had to keep pushing it though. But, you know, somber moments for happiness, man. You know, every success story has those somber moments, but you know, we keep it lit for him, man. And you know, years later, we all was going to represent for, you know, for the Drake nigga. Right. Come on, man. That's a great, that's a great, that's a great piece. What, nigga? He is in peace. Yeah, they smoking all this motherfucking weed around me. I'm gonna fuck around and relapse when we're late, you know what I'm saying? I'm gonna be talking about that. No, they're gonna smoke a blood in front of me. Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm gonna be looking for. Hell in town. Okay. All right. You know what? I'm gonna fuck around and relapse. I'm really gonna blame that shit on me. I'm gonna be looking for the hair around me. Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't let her get a reason. Don't let her get a reason. Come on, man. Shit. You gonna come back to your nine-way love? Niggas leaping to bathroom. They already knew when I said relapse, that nigga said, talk time out, man. You already knew. Relapse is serious. Relapse is serious. It's real serious, boy. I won't be, I'll be uncting, flunk. How long you been off dope? Eight years. You got eight years clean? Yeah. Good name, man. Y'all clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, here he is. And nigga's off hell round. Nigga is on drugs, drugs. Damn. Nigga, you on drugs, drugs, huh? Yeah, I had to, you know. What? I ain't ashamed of it, nigga. You ain't ashamed of your drugs? You can't be ashamed of something you overcome. Hmm. You know what I'm saying, man? You should be ashamed. A lot of people, a lot of people are overcome and they don't want to tell nobody about it. I'm proud of the moment of me overcoming drugs. So we can laugh about it, have fun about it. We can do whatever about it. Because in my life it's something that really means something to me. So we can talk about it, don't we? You like hip-hop Samuel Jackson, huh? What gave you the motivation to say, fuck it, I'm taking this, I'm taking my life back? I don't know, I think just don't, why are you all in my business? What you mean you don't know? It wasn't you, nephew. I was clean already, man. I don't get to, I'm not, I don't get to, I don't even scream when I start fucking. Now, you know, I think at some point, some people, when they going through their addiction, they just completely give up. I had never gave up, you know what I'm saying? So I still had some fight in me, and I just think at some point I just got tired. I just got tired of the cycle going in out of prison, I got tired of keep getting high, and I just woke up and said, man, I'm gonna do something different. And I put the work in. One thing about recovery is that it's a whole lot of work. People will say, man, go get clean. I was getting high for like 20 years, 20 some years. So it's like, it's a lot of psychological, it's a lot to deal with. You gotta like, almost reinvent yourself. Hell yeah, if you have a 20 year streak, and then you come back down, you like. You don't know nothing about it. I see why I left this shit. I ain't left nothing. Y'all still be. It wasn't worth it. I ain't. You never woke up in there. Ooh. So you know it, that's how it be, so. That's real though. Shit. If you still had some fight in you, that's the problem. I still have some fight in you, you know what I'm saying? My fuck is give up. It gets to a point where you feel like, you accept, y'all, I didn't accept my life. I knew something was better inside of me. I just couldn't figure out how to get to it. You know what I'm saying? Every time I say, all right, I'm getting out of jail this time, I ain't doing nothing. And in some way, I will align myself with the same people that will align me to the same activities. And that's when my nephew come in there. Even though I was clean, I was like, I was just stuck right here like this. I was like, all right, I ain't going this way, but I don't know where to go. So it's like, you can just be standing there for so long and eventually, if you don't figure something out, you're gonna go right back over there. And I was lucky enough, my nephew say, come on. I'm gonna help you do some of the stuff that you're trying to do. And with time, we just developed an amazing relationship to the point where we feel all those voids in each other lives that, yeah, voids, no father. Yeah, I'm like your daddy. So don't get dirty, so hold on, man, right. I'm just telling the truth. So a lot of stuff, I feel boys, you know. You know, I ain't never had a little, it won't be here, you know, in the past. You're gonna do your dad, isn't it? I'm like, listen to the hell, boy. Listen to this hell, man. Listen to this hell, boy. Fuck, hey. You know, I ain't even got real love. Oh, shit. Oh, I'm like your daddy, there we go. That nigga is stupid, man. I see why you had to say this nigga like, man. Man, this nigga is crazy, man. Oh, shit. It's been like, but not, the beauty of it is, man, people get a chance to see a real family unit. Right. Like, what we've been able to do is like, it's an uncle and nephew in every family like this. You know what I'm saying? And whether they, it used to be or it still was, you know, when the families was like, like you missed that uncle that was like that because like he said, your uncles be your dads. Like when we grew up in the ghetto, sometimes we don't even know our dads. What are you gonna learn from them? So your uncles be like your daddies. If your daddy died or your daddy on dope or your daddy in jail, the next thing, the closest thing to you is your uncle. And he gonna take that role up. And so we get, we like, man, we just show people that unit is saying, man, this is us. And we, we put it out there like that, man. But like they say at home, they call us like, you know, the new seven and son, they just make it crazy, man. Funny though. You don't want to say who you really is, Lamar? Lamar. But you like a real life big dummy. You swarming at my mother. No, listen to me, bud. I have your mother fucking that was so smart, so intelligent. Down here, do some shit. And you be like, how the fuck you that dumb? Like what? Oh, you got it. Sometime you be doing some dumb shit, bro. I'll be like, how am I gonna let you out? You know what I mean? That's fucked up. You dumb, man, in the bus like that. Well, we like, we like quick and sugar then, sugar and quick. There you go. See, that was your grandfather at the dice game. That's how you be when you be driving. What he did? You be letting on driving. Yeah, I don't drive nowhere. I hate driving. I damn near drove the new car before him. Yeah, I just, I just bought a Lambo and I just gave him the keys. I ain't feel like driving. I be, I don't like driving. I like cars, but I don't like driving. You do like driving because you wouldn't have bought a Lambo if you didn't. No, I really don't like driving. If you didn't like driving, you would have got some shit in life. No, I wanted the car because I wanted the car. I want to be able to be like, yeah, bitch, that's me. Let's help with you. Somebody gonna drive it. I'm gonna be, I'm gonna get drove though. Like, you feel me? I been saying your car shit, your car is dope. And you sent me that one shit. That's what's hard. I be trying to keep some dope shit. It was a national. You sent me? Yeah. That's the one I saw? Mm-mm, that's a Monte Carlo. That's a Monte Carlo. Yeah. Yeah, there's some kind of Monte Carlo's in Flipper. Let me get that national when you ready. Like let me, let me just ride with you. I ride with you. Hey man. Fuck with you. Sneak of the black hole of cars. Are you serious? Oh, he just hold on to him? Oh, Nick. Oh, Nick. It's not about me. It's about me. Oh, Nick. And, uh... Nah, it's Nick. Welcome back to the 85 South Side. You see? I'm gonna have nothing. I started from the bottom and I'm still there. Same as the dope era, man. That era shit, man. The whole era. Man, we come from that era, man. You know, like I said, man, we come from the era where even the eras of our era it taught us so much. And I felt like the only eras was the dope. Like if you erase drugs from the community, man, during the times that we grew up in, like the 80s and early 90s. It was been the best times in the world, like... Man, it was so many black-owned stores, like menaces, black clubs, like markets, like, you know what I'm saying? It was communities. You knew the neighbors. Everybody had, you know, your neighbor had control to whip your ass. Every ghetto now, before Krakit was really a black suburb. And when the drugs hit, it turned them into ghettos. Like, I mean, it was already ghettos, boy, you know what I'm saying? Like it was where you seen people working at, where people was getting up in the morning when you going to school, they going to work or whatever. And then when Krakit, it turned into the hood because everybody, and this thing, you know, me, I might come right when, like when Krakit, I was like 14, 15. You seen everybody. Before that, everybody just played sports. You call for again, nigga, you going to have to get up. Listen to me, brother. Before then, everybody just played sports, played outside. You can be on somebody's porch all night, nobody is going to start looking for you. The drugs came. When drugs came, everybody switched up. It went from Ms. Johnson to... Auntie. To Auntie. You understand what I'm saying? Oh, so we stopped calling her Ms. Johnson and started calling her Auntie. Why? Because now she, I don't have the same respect level for because she's purchased the drugs. You know what I'm saying? So now she, we went from her being able to tell us everything to her not being able to tell us nothing. You know what I mean? So that's when everything... Nigga, you've been watching my interviews, you don't never talk like this. I keep telling you, big dummy. Is that all the game you get? You get from me, you're just, you can word it better than me. Whatever. So the dope era, that was the dope era. So what we did was, we created a clothing line. Right. That kind of refurbished some of the good things of those times. We took memories from cartoons, through sans, and we just put it on t-shirts. We put it on clothing and it took off, man. It took off demographically and we became a household name in the fashion department out there, man. We was able to start selling shirts out the trunk of our car. My brother, Duck Tate, was doing the designs. Me and G-Field resting piece to my business partner and my brother, you feel me? He recently just passed. Dang it. Sorry to hear that. He and I would be in a car, we'd fill up a rental, man. You wouldn't see nothing. You would just all shirts and everything and we'd go block to block, hood to hood, selling t-shirts, man. And crypto, man. My brother Boo, who sent you the red, he would just be doing the marketing and stuff like that, man. And like I said, man, we went from selling shirts out the trunk of the car to our first store that was in the hood. To now we got a million dollar business, man, downtown in the heart of Oakland, man, in the epicenter of Oakland. Come on, man. Come here, man. They ain't taking the dope area and bringing that shit back around. Just like you said, we used to have businesses now. Right. And that's what you're starting to see more of. So you see the clothing store business, then you see the nightclub, then you see the nail shops, then you see everything, all the other businesses that we were allowing to do and then what we're doing in the community is we do the side of the things that the dope boys used to do. I remember vividly having a report card and go take it to one of the big homies that was on the corner and he would give me $50 to every A, $25 for the Bs. But if I got a D or C, I would have to give him. So you know what I mean? So that was motivation. So what we're doing is we're implementing that same philosophy and those strategies with these kids that we're dealing with with programs that we have called Creating Change. The Creating Change program is reinventing the role models and changing the narrative of what's going on in the inner city. We do trips where we take kids to different amusement parks, movies, museums and things that stuff. We do these things monthly where we just gather all the kids together in the neighborhood and drop the kids off at the store. And you know, we go take them out to these places. And so those are the things that we're now, we are reinventing the role models because the dudes that we looked up to was either killers, drug dealers, pimps or players. So now you can see some successful individuals from the community that come from the same places that these kids look up to that they follow and we can give them some better guidance. What type of advice are you giving up and coming rappers that follow you the same way? It's a lot, because you know, the Bay Area is popping right now with a lot of young talent buzzing and doing their own things, staying on the independent route also. Man, there's so many talented people in the Bay Area and Oakland specifically. Shit, in my neighborhood, in the North and I city, you got so many different artists, man, that's just working, that's grinding. You know, when you get the name and names, if you forget a name, you got to deal with that at home and stay alive. Yeah, you line it up. It's a whole bunch. Come on, say it, brother. No, I'm here, brother. Fuck that, brother. How you got down there, brother? You forgot me, brother. So, I live right here. You didn't say me? Come on, brother. So, it's hella talent right now, like the young guys, where we from. And it's tough to give them some of the game that I received because I got it from the origin. Like, I got it, people don't, you can say whatever the fuck you want to say about Too Short, like, you know, to those real hip hop enthusiasts. Downside, we love Short, you know what I'm saying? They love Short, they love Short the same way we love Short at home. Because this was his second home, really. Atlanta was his second home. Yeah, he came down here by the 90s. Yeah, this was his second home. But when you get to, like, talking to, like, some of the hip hop purists and then those of them, they, like, are too short. Like, you know, they try to shit on dog. But one thing a nigga can't say is, nigga Short was the first rapper in Northern California. Like, he's telling nigga, I may not be the best, I may not have done whatever, nigga, but one thing you can't deny, nigga, I was the first. He was like, nigga, I was famous off rap in 81. Damn. You understand? I wouldn't be there. I'm like, damn. So saying that to say, I got it from the independent messiah himself. So when I tell the youngsters, dude, you gotta get on your grind, you gotta go hustle. They be like, bruh, the game ain't like that no more, big bruh, niggas ain't out passing out CDs and shit like that, bruh, mama, bruh. Then they be like, hold on. You may not have no actual CDs, but nigga, you could go get them flyers with your QDR codes on them. And I tell people, the grind is more important to me than the actual music. All right. Yeah. It's like, learn the music, make some dope music, be creative, but nigga, hard work be talent when talent don't work hard. All day every day. Every time. We've all seen the niggas when you're like, how did this nigga make it? Yeah. And then you see, no, this nigga was going crazy. The nigga was hard. Like a story that I always like to share. I got cut from my basketball team when I was in the 10th grade. And I was like, the year before we went undefeated. And it was like, you know, basically the team was surrounded like my team, like it was, but a new regime that came in, it was a new coach. The older coach had retired. So a new coach came in and he came in with like his whole new set of rules. And the first day of practice, he was like, listen, I know you guys did good last year. Everybody, you know, hey, how you doing, man? Well, you know, you know, I know who you are. Well, I'm like, you know, me, I'm like, you know where I am, nigga, you here because of me, nigga. What the fuck is you talking about? Like what's that? Like, I'm like, you know, we running our program. You're just gonna sit here like this shit ain't. This your uncle, bro. This is some tough times, nigga. This is my guy, this is my uncle. All right. That's your uncle. So anyway, we, so the coach come in and the first day of practice, the nigga say, listen, I know y'all do whatever y'all did last year. But look, man, everybody is starting with a clean slate on this team and you're gonna have to make this team. I'm like, what do that mean? Like nigga, like we got our team going. So we had practice, Lolli Gagging and Bullshit and one one. So, you know, about another week, about a week of practice too. He's like, listen, man, look, I want to sit all you guys down. You know, I love what you're doing, man. Love your energy. I know who you are, man, and all the whole shit. But I'm gonna let you know, man. You haven't been looking pretty good in practice, man. You know, you just, you half-ass it, man. And like, you know, you're making it seem like you already made the team. I'm like, dude, we went undefeated last year, bro. I averaged a lot of points. I'm like, what are you talking about? Like nobody better than me on this team when he's on up. Say, man, I'm just telling you, man, I'm just telling you. So about two, three weeks later, man, this nigga post the cuts, like it's cut day. Cut day was so crazy, I never forget this embarrassment. This is a level of embarrassment that I never want to reach again. Cut day come, this nigga post the cuts on the gym, like at the, on the door. So me, as I say, I remind you, I'm a cool kid. I'm, you feel me? I'm always dressed, always got the latest and the greatest. I'm fashionably late all the time. I walk up, my slow slut, a slow strug, you feel me? You said you was a slow slut. That's what you said. We ain't getting fat at that part, nigga. You just called yourself, I told you the big dummy. I just told you your dumb ass, you didn't say I was a slow slut. Yeah, I wasn't fucking. Yeah. Anyway, we go to the door and niggas is just looking at me like, what do you mean, folks? So I go look at the cuts, I'm like, man, ain't no here. He like, come step in the office with me. Man, step in the office with, huh? Niggas laughing. Now you even niggas want to see me fail, right? They laugh and they cry. They high on you, brother, nigga got cut, bro. If it was social media, I would have been destroyed, right? My high school career would have been over. I wouldn't have been able to go to no school, independent studies. So I go in the office with him. We sit in the office, this nigga like, man, I'm like, man, what's up? He like, man, I told you, man, I need you to show a little bit more effort, man. You know, I'd rather take 12 guys that's working their ass off, man, than a guy who thinks he's a superstar doesn't have to work for this team. Long short story shorter, I get cut. I transfer schools the next day. But it taught me a lesson. It taught me a lesson. The lesson was, nigga, no matter how talented you are, no matter how talented you think you are, you still gotta work hard. You know what I'm saying? You gotta still work hard. And the moral victory in that was, it taught me a lifelong lesson. And I see my coach recently on Facebook and I hadn't seen him in several years and I reached out to him and I told him, I said, man, I want to thank you for a very valuable lesson that you taught me at a young age, man, that nothing is a given and not to expect anything. And with that gift that you gave me, man, it's something that I was able to base my hustle law for the rest of my life. And that's how I've been doing, man. Until this day, I'm still grinding. And I paid him back, man, by becoming who I am today. And then I got my retribution back when we played them in a tournament and we beat them niggas by like 27. I thought you was, because we found a nigga on Facebook, I would have looked through his pictures first. Yeah. Just to make sure he wasn't doing bad. He was a terrible coach. He was. But a nigga cut. A nigga was the loosest coach in high school. A nigga cut my story. I'd rather have four losers, then three strangers. I'd take two winners, three average people, and a bench full of midgets, before I have you on my team, but fucking up my place. He was one of the niggas. He was one of the niggas that was like, he was one of them dudes that, you know how police officers being niggas, sometimes being the niggas that got bullied. And they was like those guys that got bullied, got picked on. He was one of them guys, like he wasn't ever the worst conversation ever. That he was never the star of any team. Right. He had to work for it. So that's why he said that. Yeah, he had a workman's mentality. It was like a blue collar. I didn't think he had a problem with the store. Rather go and have a good time. That's what I wanted. He had a problem with the store. Like he had a collar with, he had a, and I wanted to sell it. I wanted everybody to have fun. He had a one like, you think you better than us, like you think you, you know, some niggas are on niggas like that. They'd be like, police officers that beat you up. If you get in a position to do it, you will. Yeah. But, but big shout out to Jose Bodipo, man. I appreciate you, man. You sent me for everything. You know, it's all good. He wouldn't clear this shit up now. No, I don't clear it up. I tell him that all the time. I like that story. Talk to me a lot. Talk to me out of the ground. I'd rather have four decent athletes than to play hard for ice cream after the game. They probably need to play out of the game. There's somebody that's going to act like that and already won. Man, we beat the shit out of them boys when we played them. You act like we do. Yeah, I know how you act, didn't that feel? Oh, did I? We was going to act like that. And, you know, I came to the school with every Nike sock up. I had like seven Nike socks. And, you know, I got the ankle sock, the half sock, the other sock, the big sock, the long sock. Yeah, I was one of them niggas. I dressed for 13 wristbands, headband, like, you know what I'm saying? On the court. On the court. You know, you got the headband on. You got the one wristband, two men, three. One, one, one, one. You just get that coach now. Hey, don't pay him no attention or anything. Hey, one man can't win no game. Man, I was doing shit. You know, move your style or whatever. I think I had a, we played in a pennies that tournament. The pennies that just came out. So the phone pile is the first two honnets. The blues? What? Remember the two honnets? Yeah. I had them all. They was hella, they like, bro, you hooping in the pennies, bro? You hooping? I think I was hooping in the pennies. When you see a nigga hooping some shit. No, a nigga step up on the court first thing out. 13 wristbands on. I was a nigga. All the girls used to come to the games and come see me. I had the Irish and Braids. I was wrong. For real. Those were the days. Those were the days. I can't do shit now. We played last week. We did a backpack giveaway in the hood. I played two games and they didn't die. My knee hurt. You don't got none of that CBD? Creep? Shit. Damn, man, don't get out of here. You're trying to push. I died. I still got it. No, you don't. We won, though. You don't matter. It wasn't because of you. I had something to do. What's on your mind? What's on your mind? I was out there balling the niggas. This is where I heard them from the streets. Nigga, you watched it. Are you gonna listen? Are you gonna listen? I heard from the street. Did you listen to her? I seen you. Yes, I seen your activities. But this is where I heard from the street. What? They said that we have to allow him to show out to make him look good because if not, he's gonna be feeling some type of way. So he had the niggas let you win. We won. The man's trying to beat me up. We won. I feel it. I ain't never gonna give him niggas credit. Because if you give him his credit, he's gonna get lackadagical in his stride for life. So if I tell him, nigga, listen, I don't need to study. You don't have special ed classes? Why are you trying to put me on class? Sorry about that. I ain't got one class. All day. What are you talking about? Our school coach died at our school. All day. All day. One class. Ain't lunch in that class. Everything. That's the worst. Go get your lunch and bring it back.

But we gotta have enough money so we can all be rich assholes. Not just enough money where we can be ourselves and rich. I mean, I'm talking about where we can be just rich and obnoxious.

Niggas still dying from being vaccinated, ain't he? No, and we ain't kissing no hoes in the mouth. I thought you meant us. No, I'm talking about Atlanta. In here? In this room? No, not just Atlanta. We went out and I ain't seen one mask. I didn't know if that was part of her outfit. Was it part of her outfit? Yeah, she was ugly. The mask, some of the people keep it in the mask because this lady got more. I didn't leave her out that way. She got pretty high. The rest of her ain't the problem. Yeah, but it matched her outfit. So I didn't know if she did it together. She did. Nobody got a mask. Like, you can't go where we at. They ain't letting anything in. Nowhere with no mask. I know. I've been seeing that. Niggas first going like, you can't go nowhere in San Francisco without no mask. But I was vaccinated. You can't, as soon as you cross the toll bridge, you got a mask? No. And you can't get in the restaurant or a club or anything? Nothing. Unless you vaccinated. Unless you shut your vaccination package. I got 20 masks in my car. Yeah, I wear my mask. I wear my shit, too. Y'all take it serious? Hell yeah. Anybody caught it? Not in this room. You know everybody say they had it when they first started. Remember when this shit, like, a long time ago when you was sick before you knew what it was? Right, right, right. I ain't had it where they'd have tested it now. But I've been doing it. This ain't going to die. Heard you had this shit? I ain't asking how it died. I was in there. You was dying, nigga. You was playing a role, but nigga, you was in there dying. Probably got it from all them cream chairs. That's what you got. Everybody said, my eye fucked up right now is that I got pig eyes. I told you. Or them dirty ass glasses. Explain your trials with COVID. What about it? How did it feel? Nephew, if you kick heroin, you can kick COVID. All right. Short and sweet. I'm just telling you the truth. This shit look like fog. All right. Damn. But that is COVID. I wasn't really concerned about COVID like that when I talked about it. I was more so, I had been through some shit worse than that. You did? Didn't. What? Go to Chevron for a week and then tell me how you're going to feel when you got stopped. No, I had to kick syrup so I kind of felt like, you didn't feel me? It sounded the same thing. Yeah, kicking syrup was kicking my ass. I ain't going to lie to that. I was shitting on myself and all kind of shit. What the fuck? I ain't going to lie, nigga. Try kicking syrup. That was the nigga that served. Like how he was, the nigga's stomach be hurting. The nigga be like, nigga, lie out. You ever shard? You ever shard it? You ever shard it? You ever shard it? You ain't shard it? Tell me what you shard it is. You think you got it far, but you shit? nigga, you shard on yourself. nigga, be like, you're trying to be a silo when you try to, get that motherfucker over and be like, seven niggas, you going to put the blame on somebody else? You do it and they're like, ooh. Ooh. You get that one. You feel me? That's what the syrup do. You got the syrup, dude? Yeah, that's syrup. That's shit. You got to take the young niggas there. The syrup will make you shit on yourself. Man, it's an opiate. It'll have you, you can't eat, no appetite, your stomach be hurting, nigga, headaches, withdrawals, like all that shit. So, and I was, I had to cold turkey that shit too. Like it was just like, like, you know, and it was tough because my mama was the serve lady. So, like, nigga, niggas used to come from all, it was like niggas, I ain't even fuck with niggas. They used to come to the apartment and be like, what's up with you, nigga? What's up? Your mama here. That's my mama here. What you want? Follow us, son. Like, your mama was like the icy lady. Like, my mama was like the candy lady house. Mama's so peels, weed, syrup, all kind of shit, right? So, I had easy access to it. So, I started sipping early. I started sipping before it became like the super-duper like before it became a hip-hop trend. Like, my neighborhood, we was sipping, like we was sipping heavy. So, that, I think I almost died, well, I almost died several nights. But one night, one night, I'm not off so cold behind the wheel. And I woke up the next day and was just like, where the fuck am I at? Like, I'm talking about, that night was vicious. And then, I got sleep apnea. So, I woke up the bitch one night and she's like, I wake up the bitch crying. I'm like, what's wrong with you, stupid ass bitch? She's like, my god, you died. I'm like, bitch, go get my cup. And so, that's when I knew it was too much. I had to stop. I fucked up. Wait a minute, you fell asleep at the wheel and you just woke up somewhere? Yeah, as well as I know. But you ain't fresh? No, God got me. You know, I want niggas to be safe. Yeah. Niggas always say that and nigga, all I know is, I got to park safely. I just nodded off. Jesus just kept tipping the wheel. Just a little bit like, I woke up the car and she was running and I got shit on her. Niggas, I ain't running. Niggas, I was hot. Fuck off. I woke up in the back seat with my shoes on. I was hot. Niggas, I had all my jewelry on, all kind of shit. I was like, nigga, this shit, I got to stop. This shit ain't safe. Niggas, just nod off with all the jewelry on. Window down. You see it? You know, how these niggas they got. Yeah, they be off hellish shit. They be up elevators. Everything. They be like this. We call the elevators, they be all kind of, they be uppers and downers. They be on all kind of different peels. Niggas, I'm gonna hold Perks a zany in a bar. Huh? How? How? How? Another bar. Another bar. Another bar. Another bar. They be running in some cat-medicine like, nigga, what? What the fuck? They just gonna be like, I got to die two days ago. If I lay down I'm happy as long as I stay up. They gonna be on hellish shit, nigga be like uh, what? Nigga, I'm hell educated. Nigga, what you selling up one thing? Nigga, hell educated. Nigga, hell, hell, hell, hell, Niggas know it, nigga. Niggas got a hell of an education, nigga. Niggas think you suck, nigga. Niggas been... Aw, nigga, I died. Niggas been to big school, nigga. Niggas hella dead already. Nigga, I died. Hellatized. Nigga, I'm off hell of shit. Now, niggas be high, man. Y'all niggas young... Young niggas, man, this what I'm telling you, bro. This what I'm telling you, on some real shit. Kick that shit, man. Like, you know what I'm saying? Find another way to deal with what it is that you're going through. Because what's going on? Like, I flip the narrative just real quick. What's going on is a lot of these young guys, man, are suffering from, like, extreme depression. Some of these young guys are, you know, a lot of the PTSD. They're unfortunate. And here, in no form or fashion, am I trying to make a mockery of it or a joke in it? There are some functioning autistic young men out there that are suffering with hidden autism and have never been diagnosed, because the parenting have never... Parents have been in the denial. You ever talk to a girl like, baby, yo, slow, slow? No, we're not. No, he is not. Stop fucking talking about my son. My son is not slow. You're like, this nigga savage still counting his ABCs with letters. And numbers. Seven, A. Right to A. I'm like, damn, I'm like, it's your baby. And when you talk to somebody, you can't talk to somebody about their kid. And it's hard because there are those children that grow up and they actually are autistic. And now, them niggas is on drugs. Them niggas is in the streets. These niggas got anger issues. And these are the young kids that are running the world right now. These are the young kids that we're seeing that have never been properly treated. And it's unfair because nobody is understanding their frustrations. Nobody is understanding their anger. Nobody is understanding their disabilities. They actually have true disabilities. For real. And they hide into these drugs. I say this because I speak from someone who comes from an active clinically diagnosed child that had ADHD. I came from, you know, being able to... being prescribed medications as a child because of just my energy and my excitement and hypertension. But which later graduated to PTSD, which later graduated when my mother died to depression. And these were certain things that we would fall into these things. We would fall into depression and I would hide my depression by my drug use, profusely smoking, sipping syrup, doing all kind of shit. And then all of that stuff began to just be layers. You just put layers on. And I want to say to the kids and to the dudes that's promoting this shit, it's only layers that we're allowing to hide us from the truth that we need to face. And then the reality of that facing our truths is understanding let's get rid of the layers and let's stop coating our pain with things that take us deeper into the crevice of our injuries and our disabilities. The drugs and only things, once that shit wears off, you back to the reality of it. So, you know, we must start helping these kids, start helping mentors, start, you know, I mean, the tutelage of saying it's great to have, you know, people who may have had that experience because you could take it from them. Like, I could learn from him of his experiences. I'm saying, damn, I think you're going to wait 20, 30 years. And by that time, your body didn't been broke down. You fucked up. So we're just trying to keep building, man. But that shit is real because it's affecting us so cold. Our communities are being ravaged with the promotion of the poisons. We all promote the poisons. Hip hop is guilty of doing it. Everything else in comedy and education and movement. We promoted the poisons. And I feel like we're the only cultural people or the only group of people that actually promote the poisons to the next generations. Well, everything. We promote all of the bullshit. And they let it happen. You can't talk about killing a white person. Hell no. Hell no. They're like, are they going to kiss? A white person couldn't even talk about killing a white person on the song. You pop it if that's what you're talking about. For real. So it's the poisons. We can have a positive, we can have some shit. I don't want to see that shit. Let a nigga say, man, nigga, Carlos, slap the fuck out of fab on the show. Nigga, billion views. I would never. No. He would. For what reason? You gotta find a better company to keep, man. This nigga here. For what reason? He deserved it. And you big dummy. This is a big one. This nigga got 50 albums, man. That's crazy. That's crazy. That ain't no bullshit. I have some shit. I got shit with shit with niggas with Kendrick Lamar's and rappers, man. Jada Kisses and nigga, nigga, rapper. Now I can rap. Yeah, man. For real freestyle. I ain't a rapper. I'm a rapper. Like most niggas nowadays, nigga, I'm a dope boy. Nigga ain't no rapper. Nigga, I'm a pimp. No, nigga, I'm a rapper. Nigga, I love this shit. I always provided you with the things that you have in life. For sure. Some people say I trap and rap. No, nigga, I rap. If I got it, it would have some type of rapping involved in it. I rap. My pen has provided for me. Like, you know what I'm saying? From where? Things that I wrote for other artists. Big records that I wrote for several artists. To stuff that I wrote for myself. To whatever it was. I wrote my way into this shit, man. And I am happy to say, nigga, here. Yes, I am a rapper. And, man, my pen has provided. And to all the writers out there, please continue to create. For real. Because, nigga, as a writer, as an author, as a creator, your pen has no expiration date on it. Remember that. Now, showbiz, time will take you, take you off stage. That's just professionalism of understanding that it's a young man's sport. But I'll tell you this, as a curator, that pen has no expiration date. And continue to keep going. Quincy Jones wrote Thriller at 50. He was almost 52. So, you gotta keep that shit going, man. Stay curated, man. Don't never lose your creativity. That's the beauty of this shit. This shit is like, we get lost in our creativity so much that people get, you know, feeling and nothing no longer want to move forward with that. Man, change the whole trajectory of somebody's creativity. But your imagination, man, one thing my mother always told me, continue to invest in your imagination. And you can be anywhere in the world that you wish to be. You envisioned it. And the power of belief is a strong system, man. So, shout out to all of the believers out there and the curators. That's all we do here. For real? I'm watching it. Do comedians write? Yeah, some comedians. Yeah. Nick and Paul Mooney wrote for Richard Pratt. Hello, people. Kevin Hart got a whole team of writers. That's hard. No, that's right. You ever wrote for some people? Yeah. Would you ever say who you wrote for? All right, Quinn Miller. No, you're not supposed to tell me. That's kind of like cheating the crap, man. You know, like jazz musicians type when you riff and type shit. You don't even want credit for everything that you did. You give it, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, sometimes you help somebody find it. What movie was you in? A bunch of shit. He a movie star, man. I used to be on House Bank. Niggas don't even be over there. He ain't told them folks about none of this shit. That's what it was with G Money. That's what it was with G Money. That's what you be doing. The moves and G Money moves you be making. Yeah, you be doing them side deals and shit, nigga. Niggas pop up with a commercial, nigga. How you get out here and get interviewed? No, we go to Hot 90105. This nigga got an interview. I'm like, what the fuck? Yo, come out and party with me. I mean, cut side deals and shit, G Money. No, I know why I be having to cut myself in. What? Because you be cutting me out. What you talking about? How else are we getting in if I don't find them on the way? I shouldn't. I take care of my uncle, man. What you all doing down here in Atlanta, man? Fuckin' off. Put a whole budget to the side. Just fuck it off. I ain't gonna lie. We fuckin' it all. It ain't even no explanation. We ain't had shit to do. I got hella shit going on, man. You see, I text you on Monday, nigga. I'm out here. What's up? We on the flim like a motherfucker, nigga. We was talking about the other night, me and this nigga, we in London, we went to the Raiders game in London. And we just chillin'. I'm like, nigga, let's go to Paris. We hop on the train, go to Paris, pop up in Paris at two in the morning, don't know where the fuck we at, don't know where we going, don't know shit, we just out there. I'm like, fuck, let's find a room somewhere, speak English, get a room or something for the night. We go out, nigga, we in Paris, we walkin' around Paris, nigga, just fuckin' around. I live life on the go like that, man. You know what I'm sayin'? I'm a spontaneous individual, man. This nigga I already do before a loop when he went to the Raiders game in London. Yeah, remember when... I don't want nobody to go. I don't want nobody to go. And that shit was live, nigga. I'm talkin' about it, man. About 100,000 motherfuckers at that game. Raiders fans go anywhere. They could be playin' in hell, niggas like, fuck it, cuz I'm goin'. I already brought the tickets, man. I bought the tickets, man. I'm sittin' next to the devil, nigga, fuck it. I got peoples out there in hell, nigga. Hell of my niggas in hell, girl. Hell of a lot. I got hell of niggas. Hell of a lot out there. So that's how we do, man. So, like, nigga, last week we just was chillin' like, nigga, let's go to Atlanta next week. Like, what for? Let's just go. We chillin', man. I know it's somethin' to do every fuckin' all the time, nigga. You got to do some form of illegal if you want to be involved in, like, the nightlife. Nigga, think of every night. We got a small-ass club last night. The bitch shard me 1,500 for a table and three bottles. But you don't even drink, man. Niggas in Atlanta spend money like they hate money. Listen, nigga, I walk in the club, the club, this big. Yeah. I said, can we get a table? She said, yeah, 1,500. I want some rosé. I'm takin' the table. That table coming with me. I bought it. Oh, we got it. I don't drink. Like, I drink champagne. Other than that, I don't drink shit, right? So, nigga, we got about five bottles at the refrigerator right now and at the Airbnb. We took hell of a shit back in the night. I got the bag in, bitch. Say, man, what you doin' with that bottle? Bitch, I just paid $500 for this bottle. You don't think I'm gonna take this? They talkin' nigga, $500. And I own the club, so I know the prices of shit. Like, I'd be like, this shit cost $39, bitch. Ain't no shit like alcohol. That's why they only want black people to have alcohol licenses. Like, liquor license, nigga. If y'all need to get a liquor license, get one, nigga. That shit is, man, ain't no money like that. But you got to do something illegal out here to survive, because, nigga, every night been expensive. We did, every night we goin' out bottles and shit, and this shit is expensive. I don't know what I'm... Send it! We trapped it. We gonna bring some of that Cali, if y'all need some of that dope air license. I'll tap in, expeditiously. Let them know where they can tap in and get some dope air and shit. All the dope air clothing line, man, what we did, we created some shit where we don't have a real huge e-commerce. Like, we created a real old-school trap. It was this block where we was from in Oakland called the Red Fence. Now, the Red Fence was like the number one in the world, right? Like, to us. Because, you know, Oakland niggas think that's the world. So, in Oakland, this weed spot was called the Red Fence. And, nigga, they wouldn't sell you over, like, you couldn't buy over a zip. Like, they won't sell you, like, you damn near couldn't buy over a half or something. But it'd be days where, nigga, you'll go and this is lined up. This one, you could do this for weed and nigga wouldn't think you was the police. Like, when you could ride up and be like... Think about it. Now, as you do this, look at this police ass nigga, bruh. But I'm nigga to 12, bruh. You see that, nigga? Well, that's nigga. So, but, niggas, we be young and we catch the bus all the way to East Oakland, right? And it'd be like, like, young niggas is what y'all want. Like, man, let's get 2 for 15. Man, ain't no deals, man, straight up. Like, all right, fuck it. So, niggas be teaming up but the significance of what I'm saying was you could only get that weed from there. Nobody else had it. The shit they had. They had some like... This shit probably was... It was sprayed. It had to be like... It had to have something on this weed at the time. Listen what I'm telling you, my nigga. I was 15, 16 years old. Do you know what a bus ride to East Oakland was like, nigga? I'm trying to figure out the difference. I was in Marietta on the bus right now. Fuck. Fuck no. At least 45 minutes. Listen, man. 45-minute bus ride for sure. For some weed, nigga, for a young nigga, 15, 16. And they only did it one way? One way. One way, man. Listen. This shit was avoidin' niggas be sacked like this the whole time. Man, I'm gonna get a load of niggas. You know, I'm gonna get me a red operator nigga. A spray, nigga. On my mama, nigga. A filly. I'm to the face, nigga. On my mama, bruh. And this one Puff Puff Pass was in for sure. Niggas beat you up by breakin' the rotation, nigga. Nowadays, y'all niggas smoke like y'all smokin' by yourself. Yeah. Niggas have arguments, nigga. Niggas be watchin' y'all smoke, too, like... Mm-mm. All right, nigga. Two hits, nigga. And passin' my weed. You high. You high. Yeah, nigga. Uh... So niggas be high, right? But you can only get this weed from there, so this shit will have niggas feelin'. What we did with the dope air store, you can only get it from us. We don't sell it in no other stores. Ain't no, like, we don't do e-commerce. If you got dope air on, nigga, you got it from us. Get it out the store or out the DM? You either got it out the store or you got it in the DM. Like, if you hit a nigga DM, like, bro, I'm tryin' to buy some shit, like, you feel me? That's like... So that's the cold side. If you hit the DM, you hit my DM like this, and I'm like, all right, come on, I'll send you some shit. And, uh... But that's how it is. So our shit is dope air cold on Instagram. And y'all hit us up, man. Ain't grabbed the shit, but, man, I'm expanding the brand right now, man. You know, the whole team, man, is very focused on, you know, the marketing and the exclusivity of what we've been doing. So the dope air exclusiveness, duct tape with our clothing line, we just really tryin' to really just expand it and to watch the things flourish the way that it is flourish. Man, I'm humbled by it. Like, you know what I'm sayin'? To be able to be like, damn, nigga, nigga, we made nigga this much. You know what I'm sayin'? I'm gonna say the number, but... I ain't one of them niggas. But sayin' what we did, man, that shit is... It's dope, man. It's dope. Literally. Literally, like, man, awesome clothes. Like, nigga, like, nigga, man, this shit all clothes. And then we just got licensed up for our dope air-a-za-za band. So America will be sayin' that. You feel me? We got the craziest exotics right now, man, of what we got goin'. So it's a big, big, big shout-out to the whole team. Big shout-out to our cultivation site. Been tied out to all of our team that's puttin' together some of the dopest exotics that we see, man, when you see them dope air-a-za-za packs, man, you already know. Well, shit, man, there it is, right there. I got you. I got you. I'm sayin' y'all package. We gon' need our shit. Yeah, yeah, feel me. You got to do it. Oh, you got to do it. You got to do it. Cuz' I'll pull it up on us, it was lit. Appreciate you, my guy. Man, I appreciate you stoppin' for us. Oh, thank you. Man, I'm fuckin' with you. Why? Man, you just put me on blast on this motherfucker. My what? You told everybody, bud, that I had one class all day. That was fucked up, bud. He didn't let a shit go. Yeah, that ain't as bad as havin' class all day. You just said you're not ashamed of nothing you did so you're not ashamed of your one class. You're smart now. I like to tell my story. I just were throwin' you a pass to set up your story. Yeah, you told it. Look at you now. You went from hair-rinds to rollies, nigga. Two chains, nigga. Come on, nigga. You came all the way up. Come on. He didn't give me one favorite. He didn't give me one favorite. If you think I'm startin' to realize, get my shit. Cuz' I don't want to find it. Go, man. Hey, man. Let's get it.
