 But my thing is like, what are the results of not checking in? You gonna hurt me? You know, so I think that aspect of it is crazy. You know, because if you gonna hurt me because I don't check in, that means you don't love me. You know, you don't have no respect for me. But if there are people that I deal with, now I guess you can say, if you say, well, if I'm checking in, I'm letting you know I'm here. But I mean, what you said, I have to pay you or something like. That's extortion. Yeah, that's something totally different. But you know, hey, yeah, I mean, but I think this is what I think. I think the people who are street stars and they haven't elevated to that platform where they're major stars and they have a relationship with those people that has that type of platform. They just wanna feel connected. Yeah, we on Boss Talk 101, 101. Yeah, we gonna talk. Today, I need to ask you, what do you think about checking in when people go to different cities? That's something that I've been asking people about. Like, you see different people, they go to cities, they check in. They with certain groups of people, you know, whether it be in Cali, whether it be in Houston, whether it be wherever, this check in thing, where they just come to the city. And both of y'all can get a chance to answer this one. No, I need to hear this, you know, I need to hear what y'all take yours on. I think for the majority of the black people, their ego be their worst amigo, you know. If things are already established in a city, you know, and if you mess with these people, why not check in? Hey, I'm here. What do you have to lose? Some people internalize that as a form of weakness, but I don't see a problem with it. I guess it's how the individual choose to internalize what checking in is, you know. Me, my thing is like, what are the results of not checking in? You gonna hurt me? So I think that aspect of it is crazy, because if you gonna hurt me because I don't check in, that means you don't love me. You know, you don't have no respect for me. But if there are people that I deal with, now I guess you can say, if you say, well, if I'm checking in, I'm gonna let you know I'm here, but I mean, what you said, I have to pay you or something like that. That's extortion. Yeah, that's something totally different. But you know, hey, yeah, I mean, but I think this is what I think. I think the people who are street stars and they haven't elevated to that platform where they're major stars and they have a relationship with those people that has that type of platform. They just wanna feel connected, you know? And I don't think there's nothing wrong with that, man. You know, people wanna say, hey, I know Pimperkin. They wanna say I know God, you know what I'm saying? So I guess it's all about how the individuals choose to internalize what checking in is. But me, I don't have a problem. You know, if I'm saying, hey, I'm on my way, I got a partner in Big Mo, he lives in LA. You know, this is my partner. He comes down here. When he come here, we know, I look out for him. Correct. I go up there, but I got- Even if you go to Atlanta, you gonna tap in with Kim. I can, but like I said, I got peep out there. You know what I'm saying? So I don't have a problem with, I think the problem is the word within itself, check in. You know what I'm saying? That is what it is. And if you say, hey, when you get to the city, hit me up or look me up. You know, but when you say check in, I think that's the word that's more the issue. You know what I'm saying? So they feel like it's taking something from them as a man. But no, I don't have no problem reaching out or letting somebody know, hey, I mean, I wanna let them know I'm in the city. I don't need it. What do you think about it? The word come from the penitentiary. So, you know, when you come to the penitentiary, if you're a G.D., a vice lord, Cripple, blow, you gotta check in. You know, let people know what's at you on. So I think some of the people on the streets have used that word in the penitentiary vernacular, but like what he say, when I come in, I check in with him, I check in with you. That's how I'm here today, I check in. So I don't have no problem with checking in because that's the only safety that I have. I say, Valentino, I'm in the city and if something happened and somebody was to, you know, accidentally have an accident or I got shot, you know, he gonna get on the phone, he gonna call my people, ain't man, I need a Ken mama number, man. Yeah, yeah, man, I heard something bad happen to Ken. You know what I'm saying? So, you know, checking in, let pretty much let the people know and I do it in every city, you know. Even when I get to Atlanta, I check in with the people that I know are there and even though I live there, you know what I'm saying? So checking in is a good thing. But I think where it came from, you know, for me being in the little town, it came in comfort and penitentiary. It's a penitentiary, you got to check. Even like when I went to Memphis, right, and I was in the Shelby County, I just got out the fast, you know, I had the state hold on me, probation hold. And it was like, the guy in Chicago was like, he was calling for the GD's. He said, man, you got to check in. You know, and then check in also, I mean, check them shoes in, check them glasses in, check that, you know, if you come in, cause like, you know, that's why they don't let niggas wear gym shoes. Back then they used to let, like you got some new Georgia back then. That's when they first came out, the blue ones and the black and white and red. If you wore them, you had to check them in. If you had glasses, they'd make you check in. You know what I mean? So that's what checking in mean. So that's why a lot of people, you know, when they hear the word, it's a negative connotation because, you know, it's definitely a penitentiary word. I've been hearing it for years all the time. You know, you've been trying to write, you know, that's why you laugh, you know, you know.
