Yeah, I got the one I spelled down there Let's you let's you my mama worked up 28 years. Really? Yeah post city post city You know back in the day when we would come up there cuz I'm from down in a little small town called a gas assembly Yeah, it's right by Vivian, Louisiana. Yeah, five miles from Louisiana state line All right, you go up you hit the crossword. That's what my daddy used to be Okay, he ended up used to be down at gambling and shooting and racing them cars back in the day Yeah, you make a right. You went all the way up in the lose out. Yeah, you up before the casino Yeah, you know, I'm saying they when they first broke. I broke how was it? Yeah, I was at that thing. Okay. Yeah, I had big money then I'll spend money every night in that thing Casino man, that was the first one Harry's in the horseshoe Yeah, yeah, yeah, they come up like that now. You don't think I know yeah No, you know, yeah miss man. So man listen man When I used to be down there man in Shreveport, man, I come down there I go get me some, you know, they sold liquor more than everywhere Yeah, no one else is like in Texas. You couldn't get it. We have some kind of clouds where you got to go So far even to get your liquor bar in Louisiana over there in Shreveport They're selling liquor all day every day all day. Yeah. So back in the day, that's all I did I was running around down there because that's why it was really it was wet We had it with Back when I when I was coming up though One thing I noticed about Shreveport and you gonna relate to this man a lot of MLA niggas moved in there Oh, yeah, and they in them game that game became reality down there reality had that channel three news Yeah, pop it. Yeah, cuz cuz a lot of gang bangers out of your lady. They get kicked out for eight years nine years Oh, then they didn't they go to Arkansas or Shreveport. That's where they were going and Shreveport was Everything yeah, yeah, and the news felt it. Yeah, most definitely. Yeah, I was like waiting when Katrina happen They moved to Dallas.

I don't know if you remember I'm a little old but back in the days when you look at it You'll go back down that road and you'll start to see before brothers used to have their own stuff Yeah, if you talk about that Oklahoma Street over that. Yeah, yeah, the Tulsa, Oklahoma But this was happening all black wall street black wall street was just that was just one thing that where we had a Travesty, yeah, when you start looking at black business on mr. Yeah, all the people I'm going up as a kid black people had their own thing Yeah, they're they own stuff and they just think about when you were young Yeah, yeah, you go to get you you go to get a haircut. You go to the community convenience store I was bubbling on the convenience store. Mm-hmm. So this is a part of what was going on We were separate. They didn't want us to be mixed in at first. Mm-hmm. And so they was really telling us We don't want y'all ever we came up with our own creation Yeah, and then they started to try to bring things back together Yeah, I think that crippled a lot of our Entrepreneurs and he cut it for the black culture. It did you remember that right most different Yeah, and I respect anybody that do it that do it out the mud and Entrepreneurs, you know, yeah, yeah, cuz I've been up to five every morning five o'clock.

So You know when niggas get a bag, they don't hit you up no more No, no, no, no, no, they unless you unless you blow. Yeah, unless you blow So it's plenty niggas in the industry I don't feed yeah, yeah, you know saying like I had one pull up New he or he shoot movies But East Side PZ all these boys like before they even got a deal. Yeah They know what's going on. Yeah, but you know, a lot of people don't reach back. You feel me Yeah, you know, you don't even need nobody to reach back. You just like hey, look me in Detroit You don't say like I know the I know all these yeah, yeah every rapper that really blew, you know Man come on Man, you know, and I always think about this cause So I had to call those mill he invited us out to the show last night and we went on set with him since we were down here Yeah, and I always think about the ten lepers in the Bible He talks about and Jesus healed ten lepers Yeah, and when they came to him he healed ten and he said go do what Moses law showed that you should do And they went back to do what Moses law showed that they should do but when they went back when they left they was healed All ten of them left. Yeah, it was healed and they seen they was healed. Yeah, but only one look back See that one is the only one to look back Yeah, and you got to get used to that because that's the that's that's just telling you that Everybody just because you do something with them. Yeah, they're not gonna look back They're not gonna look so when Carlos sent us out there last night and a brothers, you know On his gas list and all that I sent him. Hey, man. Thank you.
