 Coming from KKC, you know what I mean, my mom killed my dad or who I believe was my dad. Oh, who you believed to be your dad? Columbus Keith Short Senior. Yeah we on boss talk one on one, one on one, yeah we gon' talk. Insanity. Insanity. Doing something over and over again expecting a different result. Exactly, because I always tell people because a lot of times I normally start out by getting your back story because you have a lot of people who come on here and they'll talk about how their daddy was, whether they were absent and you know, I'm like, okay so how did you change that with your children, how did you try to break that because- That's a real, I'm in the process. You know what I mean? I'm in the process. You know what I mean? Like, I'm gonna keep it a buck because you know, I found out, you know, I'm from Kansas City, Missouri. I wanted to talk about that, let's get into that, I want to know- Hold on, let's go back first before, okay, let's start back because we don't know man. I'm from Kansas City, Missouri, man. And you were raised, how? I was raised, you jumped because you just jumped, a whole movie. There's a whole lot of stuff. Okay, go ahead, I'll let you go, go ahead. So coming from KC, you know what I mean? My mom killed my dad or who I believe was my dad. Oh, who you believed to be your dad? Columbus Keith Short Senior. He was a police officer in Kansas City. How old were you when that happened? I was two weeks from being born. Wow, yeah, I was not born yet. I was in, but you know, now that I have four kids, so like now understanding like, you know, like that third trimester when they came here and they, you know, I was there. I was just in the womb. I was just protected. I've heard that, I've heard that. You know what I mean? So all of that, you know, I heard the gunshot. I was there. I felt it. And you can be affected by it all. Yeah, yeah, that's why like my whole life I didn't know. I was like, man, for a long time I got, I was like Batman. I didn't, I didn't want to mess with no guns. You know what I'm saying? I was like, guns is like. Did your mom ever explain all of that to you when you got older? I mean, we working on it. You know, do you have a relationship with her? Absolutely. Absolutely. But it gets real when the, when the gets real, gets real. We can't, I'm not ready to drop about the gets real. People always, you know, they'd be like, man, you, because I go in. Like you say my, my, my, I could have been him because my mom, you know, shot. My dad was like three sitting there watching. You watched it. Yeah. Yes, I did. So when I say stuff like the people like, man, you know, the kids, but we go, I'm like, we challenging the same energy, man. I thought that he would have ran out, but that didn't even run out. He ran after her. Yeah. I'm like, he been shot in the head once. My daddy got shot. He did. He got shot in the head with a bullet or 22, I believe a small gun. And it ran up his own thing. No, it never did penetrate. It stopped. And he put it in his pocket. He used to carry. You got to be kidding me. I'm not playing bro. He used to carry around in his pocket. I'm not playing. Different. And my uncle got shot in the same place. My uncle got shot in the back of the head. My mama towed up Kansas City. I'm not going to lie. She was bad. Jeanette Bentley towed Kansas City apart. And if anybody know Kansas City from 1982, she towed that motherfucker up. Wow. That's on God. And I can tell you know me, I told my mama know that. We cool. We can, we can. Mom, you towed it. You burnt that motherfucker down. Are you the only child? I'm from Kansas City. Yeah. Yeah. So you were the only one who experienced all of that. I was, so my mom was going through the case. You got to remember this. You know what I'm saying? You got to think about that. Right. I was going to be born in jail. So you know, the shorts, the shorts, Edna's short, Richard's short. You know, all the shorts, Janine's short, my auntie Nene. You know what I mean? They had to take me in. You know what I mean? They had to. Because that's who, you know what I mean? So that's who been abraising you. But it's crazy, bro. Because I just got my birth certificate like three weeks ago. And well, I ordered it eight months ago, but I just saw it three weeks ago. How did it feel looking at it? There was no name on the, there was no father's name. Wow. So you know, that's where the case began. But you know, onwards and upwards. No, the reason why I always like to go back into peep, because our viewers can see the elevation. See that it doesn't end with just, you know, something traumatic happening and you blame every, because some people live in hate for the rest of their life and blame it all on their past and not realize that you have a future. You have a choice to change your future. Correct. Not to live in hate, not to live in anger, not to live in what you did with, you know what I mean? You know what's amazing about what you're saying is what's empowering me is that I was talking to one of these, this young man who's like, he's like a, he's like, I don't know, like a baby brother or like a son. But he was, he's went through a really bad situation. You know what I mean? He thought this girl, he was raising with his daughter. It wasn't his daughter. And it's like he spiraled out and he, you know, overdosed and other stuff. And you know, we talked a couple of days ago and I said, man, all you got to do, man, man, it's not, I've been there. You know what I'm saying? Right. Just keep pressing. You know what I'm saying? Do not quit. If you quit, it's over with. Do not quit. That's the name of the game. Do not quit. But I think it's harder for someone like you to go through certain situations than a regular Joe Blow. The reason why, because you have the whole world watching you. That's what I'm saying. So whenever you, you know, people see you look a certain way or, you know, act a certain way, they get to go to social medium. Oh, he's going through this and he's this and that. If I had a phone back then when he cut up at the Palladium ballroom, I would have put it out there. I would have been out here looking like a mystery back in the day. Because they didn't have phones like that back then. Oh, yo, I shut them down. You cut up, man. We're back in the day. Hey, country. Hey, they didn't want us back in them days. No, no, no. It was ugly. We was burning down cities.
