Thanks for finally making taking that flight to come see his bro. Long time, long time in the making. What you've been on?
How you feeling? First off, I'm feeling good. Everything's good with you?
Yeah, man, everything good. I'm around good people there. Yeah, you're home with us for sure, for sure, for sure. Give us a little background.
Man, when people speak of Jay Stone, of course they know your affiliation.
Long live Nipsey Hustle. You know what I'm saying.
Tell us, tell us what you meant to Nip, what Nip meant to you, and the role you played in the All Money and movement.
Man, I've been, I've been. I've been down the day one man since i've been. You know, I ain't never switched up on him. He ain't never switched up on me. We ain't never had no arguments with each other or nothing like that. Like I just being loyal being day one. That's what I meaning it. You know what I mean, just being loyal and being there, staying down and being real, being true, truthful to him. You feel me like not lying and shit, Like you feel me just being one hundred. You feel me?
And what did he mean to you? And what some of the shit I mean? Obviously probably a lot of shit. But with some of the shit you learned from.
Him, Bro, I learned a lot. First of all, he taught me how to do pro tools and shit. He taught me pro tools and how to record. So you know, we was in the studio recording and he left. He like, I'm fel to be back for an hour. So when Nip say he'd be back in the hour, that Nigga ain't coming back to about like four five six hours, you feel me. So when he came back, he was like, yeah, let me hear the song. You're done. I'm like songs.
I did like a whole tape, you feel me, Like when he taught me how to record, did a whole tape? Bro played the whole shit, And then we going back and forth. I'm doing songs. He doing songs. I'm doing like five six songs. Bro, gotta do like folk songs. So he like, man, look Monday, you're gonna record Monday, You're gonna record me, nigga. Tuesday, I'm gonna record you. That's how we do it, you feel me. So I get it in on a Monday, get it on Tuesday.
So that's how we had a gang of records and shit, you feel me, and then we'll go pump that ship up, press the CDs, passing that shit out in the head. You feel me. Like we were asking for no dollars though, you feel me. We'll just give it to everybody, you feel me, But they will pay us. They'll give us like five dollars for a CD. We got the trunk with it, you feel me.
What was the team meetings like? Cause Nip also said I saw something go viral. He was like, I ain't got the type of team with niggas shit around and not do ship. Like everybody doing something, everybody something. Yeah, like we all bosses, you know what I mean? Like we all we all like we all got something going on. And that's one thing about Nip, like he knew how
to pick the right motherfuckers to have around you. You know what I mean, the right people, the solid people that's actually doing something that's gonna bring something to the table. You feel me, even though that's what our attention was. You feel me, but like you just seen it in us.
You feel me. So that's just how that shit.
Was absolutely, absolutely absolutely talk a little bit about you know, just West Coast culture, coming up in West Coast culture or California culture, and you know the streets and banging and everything, and how he was able to transition from you know, the street life and the being Jaystone and being here with us today.
Yeah, man, I mean you know La, you know La is La.
Man.
You feel me like I'm growing up in apartment buildings, homies outside, shooting dice fighting in the back. You feel me. I'm going to school, it's about fifteen homies in front of the building. You know what I mean, I'm passing the homies before I go to school. You feel me so being able to do what I'm doing now like
they are expected, they saluted. You feel me because I was doing it then, like eight years old, telling the niggas like hey, listen to this tape you feel me, Like Mantie gave me the karaoke and let a nigga go, Like, let a nigga rap. She gave me a box of tapes and it was like just go you feel me, so, you know, transitioning from the streets to the rap shit. You gotta make a choice, brocause I had to go to jail. I had to go back and forth to jail to really like figure it out, you know what
I mean. So it took it took a little minute to figure it out. Once I figured it out, I'm like, all right, this one I'm supposed to be doing. I'm supposed to be doing the music you feel me. I can't do both because I'm getting caught up going to jail every time.
What was your main lim what was your main dilemma like trying to you know, balance and switch over to.
It was it was like hanging out, hanging out with the strap or something like that, you know what I mean. So that automatically put me in a position to go to jail. You feel me, like the police come through, I'm running type shill, I'm trying to get load something like that.
You feel me.
So that's how I end up kept going back to jail. But this last time I went to jail, from the time they put the cups on me to the time I got out, I knew.
What I wanted to do.
You feel me. I'm like, I'm rapping this time. I'm going to get out and just go crazy. You feel me, And that's what I did.
So, being that you were in such close proximity to Nipsey when you finally started transitioning and like really taking the raption serious, do you think that your position helped or hindered you as far as possibly being overshadowed or possibly like people not necessarily taking as seriously as they would have if you were kind of like a standalone artist.
Yeah, it was like I don't know, you know, cause Bro kept shouting shouting my name out. I was in jail, and he'll shout my name out. You know what I'm saying. So he'll let people know, like the homie Jaystone coming home and you feel me like he been doing music. He'll he'll let people know like he've been doing music for a minute, you feel me, and just for youall
respect when he come home. So when I came home and then my thing, it was already kind of like way yeah, kind of anticipating you feel me, But like my story like we all got we all we all got our own story. You feel me, Like we're fund the same shit, we grew up under the same shit, but like we all got our own story. So as long as your story like just stand out from everything else, you know what I'm saying. The fans they gonna, they gonna, they gonna connect to you, to your story, you know
what I mean, to who you are. You feel me, so you know.
You believe in being vun your music, like speaking about the ship that you're going through, Like even if it's shit that ain't perceived, it's like cool, like if it's mental health or like some people were like I ain't putting that in my music, you know what I'm saying.
Yeah, one of my projects, the call the Story, Ever, I really just like let everybody know about my life, you know what I mean, Like how I grew up. My mom died when I was three. My auntie raised me, you feel me, Then she died, and then my brother died, like right back to back, you feel me, Like me and my brother was raised in the same household with my Auntie, you feel me. So my brother passed and then she passed, so all I had was the streets.
You know what I mean. I went to the streets, and shit, I'm in the hood, but I still like knew what I wanted to do. I wasn't just in the streets, just not like having no purpose, you know what I mean? Because I knew I want to rap since I was like eight years old, You feel me? So I just kept doing that. Bro and shit.
What shit you do? What shit you do? Make your hippy? Keep it in the road like the hippy.
Keep your mindset, ip, you keep you know what I'm saying, state focused on what you're trying to do. Like what's the ship that you do? Like intentionally? Certain people have certain ship they just do every day to keep them focused. You know what I'm saying. What I'm saying, what's the ship?
You do?
What sh First of all, I smoke. I like to smoke, you know what I mean.
I get up in actually gonna keep a nigga cool.
You feel me? Smoke and prayer, man, you know what I mean. I get up in the morning, I pray.
You feel me.
Sometimes I might read something, you know what I mean, just to get my mind going. You gotta stimulate your mind before you hit the streets, you feel me, or get out there because and eat something too. Man, you gotta balance it out with like a meal in the morning or something like that. You feel me you don't want to go out there or nothing on your stomach.
Give me hungry, man, you feel me for real.
I know that feeling because I'll be faster sometimes, man, for real, And.
I'm a whole different I'm a whole different person when I'm hungry, like.
Angry for sure.
You have some of the moments where you be slipping back into.
Your old self, like yeah, man, you know, but you gotta check yourself though.
You gotta always check yourself. You feel me like we.
Got that conscience that's gonna tell her some bullshit always. You feel me in you know, we got good ship and bad ship going. You feel me in our head. You feel me like somebody whispering something. You feel me like, especially if you speak your mind, like, man, fuck that ship. You feel me like you're gonna hear that voice telling you like, oh yeah, well you know, but it's all on this ship.
We're gonna react.
Yeah, man, you gotta be able to check that ship man for real, because we all get bad thoughts. You feel me, like, but he's gotta stay positive, bro, positive, you feel me. It's so easy to just go back down that road when it's in you on you.
Ship, you're thinking, I won't.
You know what I'm saying.
I really want to and then more than niggas, But it's just so much, for sure, because it's so easy to throw your life away. Now you gotta think about it, because you can throw your life away just for slapping them up the charges seeing niggas in jail, and you feel me when they the ones be on some boards ship they need to get slapped, my mama.
But uh yeah, think environment helps, like getting out.
Of Sure, you gotta move. You gotta move out the environment. That's that's causing all that, Bro. You feel me, I have to. I had to move. I had to move out the hood one time. You feel me, I had to, You feel me in It's a good thing because I'm gonna tell you why I have to get out the hood. Because the police, Bro, they kept they kept seeing me. You know what I mean, they kept seeing me. I'm like, then they start tearing my car up and all that.
I'm like, man, I can't do this every day. You feel me like, so I got about the hood?
Mm hmm, what's the ship? You look at it in the rap game and be like, man, this ship is it shouldn't be like this.
Hey, the music though, you.
Know it's crazy.
Everybody's saying the music ain't right right now. All the music is trashed, you feel me. But you can't blame that shit on the rappers. You gotta blame that shit on the producers too, though. You feel what I'm saying, like, if you're gonna hold the rappers account before you got to hold the producers.
What you're talking about. The music is trash.
Who making the big who doing the music for the be could be hard the music to be trashed though, Yeah, ways for sure.
But some producers won't even want you even let you put no wet shit out on the beats.
Get the money, producer, don't even be knowing that the artists put it out into that South.
Too.
And I said, like, just inside of the whole game.
Of it, not the music like a well, I know Ron mad on the West. You feel me, it ain't it ain't really it ain't really eat that many like artists, gatekeepers, like even the ones like you know, got the power, got got some sense of leadership. You feel me like we ain't getting together. We're not doing nothing, you know what I mean, Like, ain't nobody really really doing nothing? So we're gonna be stuck in a in a and
and not not far as like growing musically. I'm just talking about like just period, Bro, we ain't doing nothing in the city right now, you know what I mean? So I feel like we need to get together. And it ain't like the South. You go to the South, you.
Know what I mean, It's different, bro, Like this is a network.
Can you feel me? You go back to the West. It's like, man, what we're doing? Like what is we doing?
Like what we really do?
We gotta turn this ship up, you.
Know what I mean?
He said, Like niggas ain't linking up like you trying to make this.
Ship trying to link period.
Yeah it ain't.
And then you know like that it ain't that many collabs either though, like we got I feel like we gotta collab more in the city.
Why you think niggas don't collab?
I don't know.
I can't even say.
Politics.
No, I ain't gonna I ain't even gonna say that. I mean, because that ain't stopping nothing, you know what I mean, Like, probably you feel me. It could be an ego situation you feel me, or I don't know, that's just because it's that hell yeah, I tapped in. I mean, I mean, look at my out and look at my catalog. You feel me, you see washing feel me? So you know niggas, No, I can get on the song with niggas and collab and go crazy. You feel me.
So that ain't nothing. But yeah, maybe it's that time to just really like do it though you set it off. We gotta do no compilation album, but like, come on, you do it. You feel we're doing? Yeah, turn the shitty up.
What I got on?
I got on the air or some ship it's called to sail in here take a shot.
For sure.
That's the only thing keeping me more shut.
Billy on, Hey, you gotta around, give me a prop bottle. You gotta choose, you gotta choose.
One man coming from Kelly, boys in the hood, minutes to society or colors.
Hm hmmm, I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say boys, and I'm gonna say yeah, I'm gonna say, yeah, I'm gonna say boys in the hood because you know that that that that lets you know, like you know, it was more well rounded, Yeah, more well rounded and like family orientated to like why ship go on too, like in the neighborhood, like something can happen to your to your brother, to your family, you know what I mean? And that a year it be up from there. You feel me so,
but man, minister society, bro, that's that's classic. Yeah, I mean that's classic most described like l A both because like ministers Society is giving you like, well, watch look like you feel me like that was that's you know, watch his own city, you feel me. It's it's it's south central l A. Still but watch his own thing. You feel me? And minister Society gave you that, gave you that inside.
Corner like that too, like the Asian people tripping.
On yess how it was in the beginning. You feel me, But like, I ain't like that no more though you don't. You don't you don't get that, you don't get that like that no more? You feel me?
Good?
Take anything else to sell? When I get.
Yeah, you say, you say boys and the hood, Damn ain't nobody showing a lot of colors.
Colors.
Colors was kind of.
The first one though, right, yeah, I was, yeah, it was the first one.
Yeah, Yeah, that ship was too old.
Man, we were Yeah, that's a different era. Yeah, that's a little different eras you know what I mean. But yeah, colors is hard though. That's that's that's classic, bro.
That's just like the kid does born nowadays about Sesame Street. The niggas don't know nothing about no Sesame streets talking that right now, like Schoolhouse Rocks or some ship like that too old?
Oh my god?
What when you think about the name like Tupac, You know what I'm saying, Like out of Tupac inspire you just musically and just from top to bottom as an l a nigga, just going.
Hard, having a catalog consistency, rapping more than anybody, out rapping everybody, out working everybody. You know. That was my inspiration. And then like saying what you feel you know what I mean, not not scared to speak up on like the struggles in your household? You feel me, Like what's
going on in the house? You feel me? Well, moms, just like you know what I mean, type shit, You feel me, so, you know, pop help you open up in your music about certain shit, you know what I mean, politics, life struggles, you know what I mean, shit like that, who the Undisputed?
Like?
You know niggas like even though not Debaker, who the Goat?
Like?
Who the Undisputed Goat? Like everybody be like, yeah, you know what I'm saying.
At the end, that's crazy, man, because they always got to make it one. It ain't really one though. If it had to boil down to one, I can't really say it's too many.
Though, you feel me, you know, would be like most like the majority of the people say heat, you know what I'm saying.
Like in New York, New York is jay Z right?
Yeah it can.
It can be broken down in eras, but I mean not really because you can't even say this era. These niggas drop one high album and go platinum and think they top ten, top five already. You feel me, Yeah, you're gonna need to you need like three, four, five more albums, you feel me, like all the greats and ghosts, but that I feel them. Niggas got five ten albums, you know what I mean.
But if you had to choose that Nigga really did it? Nigga like jay Z did it? Like that Nigga did it. When I look at l A, You're right, it's a few names, but like Snoop Dogg fucking did it? Pop did it?
Nip Rest of Soul, they did it, you know what I'm saying, Like they came from circumstances.
Yeah, everybody say, oh got the title.
About the West talk about Street, the West Coast talk Today meant come.
On Snoop, Snoop forty short Q you feel me? But that one, That's what I'm saying, is hard, bro, it's.
Hard's anybody with Snoop done? Did nobody?
Nobody?
That's what I'm saying. As a rapper from they ain't gonna do it? And as a producer from l A. Has anybody done with Dre done?
Did quick?
It's pretty easy. I feel like clicking Dre like.
And I feel like it's a lot of It's a lot of like West Coast us it like don't get their proper credit either, like the mac Dre's, the mc as, the Spice ones like you know what I'm saying, Like all of them. I feel like even.
Though the one.
A catalog or they might have the amount or the volume, they still deserve to be mentioned in that conversation because they've done a lot of ship for the West Coast.
That's that's the pioneer conversation.
They ain't the Goat conversation about Goat, Like we can put a lot of potential in the potential like the nigga like nobody ain't did with it, and he remained Snoop during.
It the whole time.
That's like.
For the West Coast.
For me, I don't know, but Snoopop Dre on the beat today.
Still doing it like he ain't stopping for sure, Yeah to go, yeah back.
What we're doing?
So what's what's what's this album drops mid November? What's some of the standout.
Ship on there?
Like Ship the Niggas just gotta check out and the music that that that first, Like the bars is different, The bars is different, The message is different, you know what I mean?
Like I ain't really on there, like I'm uplifting, like I'm inspiring. You feel me like I ain't leading motherfuckers into know you know?
Yeah?
You feel me like it's the definition of success. You feel me, And I don't mean like money and fame, just you know, just getting getting your mind right, getting your people's right, getting your situation right, your family right, I mean, your business right, and putting everybody else on. You feel me?
How you kick so?
How you kick it to the young homies being this you know you come from the streets and then you know la like do you kick it to the young homies like don't do that?
Or try it this way? Or how you kick it to the young homies.
Is going round?
I just try.
I just try to tell the homies to find a purpose, you know what I mean, Like find a purpose? Fine, like what you feel like you're here for, or what it is you're good at other than the street ship that you're good at. You master that, you know what I mean? But what else? What else you of that?
You know what I mean?
Go after that, you know what I mean? Or chase your dream, you feel me like, whatever your dream is, chase your dream might take you somewhere. Yeah, that's what ill so you'll never leave you stay up for life? Man? I thought never low key Now, I thought I can live like everywhere else. I thought I can live everywhere else until I start, you know what I mean? Traveling in the world and ship, like going to different states and ship and even staying out there for a little bit,
like I get homesick. I'm like, no, I love that I can. I can't live nowhere else. You know, I could get spots, you know. Yeah, you know what I mean, got to got to for sure, shure We'll get bringing up.
Yes water. How do you?
How do you? How do you come to Atlanta with Atlanta ship?
Last time I was out here with uh when uh what t I and g Z and then performed at the State for him Marina Legends legendory. Yeah, yeah, I was here for that.
That was like a year ago. Though you feel me earlier?
Yeah, man, I gotta get out here sooner.
You feel me?
So you ship you like to do when you come here? Like specifically, like.
Yeah, because I don't be out here long enough to even really know you feel me?
So?
What's the artist you like?
You listen to the ship?
Jez Gucci?
You feel me, baby, little baby?
Yeah?
I feel me. I listened to everything anything come out that's hard. I'm sucking with you.
Listen to R and B.
Yeah, like what like all school or new school?
All school? New school?
I should Jack feel me?
Okay, yeah, what kind of so, so you are you locked in or you single? Like what's your personal situation? You locked in or you moving around still or what?
As far as the female, come on a big facts.
I don't want to talk about that. No, I don't talk about no, I got I got, I got, I got you got like.
Talk about what type of ship that way that keep it safe?
What's what's jay stone type.
Of not on some real ship though? Like my female loyal though, you know what I mean? Like I funk with the loyal type. You feel me like she just gotta be one hundred. You feel me like I don't like liars. I don't like that be playing like you know what I mean?
You got kids?
Yeah?
I got kids?
How many?
And what I mean how many? How many?
Like?
Are they boys or I got I got I got boys? I got I got a boy too, A couple of girls.
How old is he?
One?
Is three?
He's three right now? Appreciate it?
So what kind of like when it comes to them, what kind of ship do you try to do with them to kind of I don't want to say keep them out of harm's way, but to just kind of try to keep them on a on a kid's path, you see what I'm saying, and prevent them from growing up so fast like you had.
To do just being a kid, you know what I mean, just living life and just being a kid first, and I try to grow up too fashion being grown up. I mean, like, go to school and be a kid first. You're gonna pigure everything else.
Later.
You're gonna pigure everything else later. You feel me, just like I did. You feel me.
You don't got to do it now, but you do.
Gotta figure it out though, Yeah, I mean, you better figure it out soon because you know I knew what I wanted to do early. If you don't know your purpose at a certain time, you feel me like, I'm I'm I'm I'm gonna start pushing.
That's what I'm like. That's what I'm here for.
Dad.
Of course, yeah, of course, right, yeah, for sure.
If your kids want to wrap what you supported, well, yeah, when I be at the studio, they you want to make beach My daughter, she'll try to.
She'll try to get on the beat machine with me, you feel me, So I just let her get on the bet machine and see what she do, and she'll start like like doing something so I record her, and you know, but I don't know she she ain't never said she wanted a rapper or do nothing like that. But if she did, though, I support it. My son wanted to rap, I supported, And.
Just push them like into whatever direction you see that they already want to go in.
Yeah, for sure. For sure, I wouldn't want to try to.
Like make them yeah like them, Yeah.
But fucking anything else other than that, like a fucking.
But I feel like I feel like they're they're they're they're be inspired to do something.
For sure, kids learned to them nowadays, so they they they know how to formulate their own ideas and ship. But like you said, with you being dad and with you knowing that, like this is what they have going on, and I'm gonna push them in that direction, that foundation is what's gonna be most.
Important for them.
That's the thing. The foundation that's key.
Yea.
And if they know they got a foundation, it's just it's just.
Add on and they gotta end like another thing too.
They gotta they gotta know, which most kids don't have that solid foundation. They gotta know like if they try some ship and fuck up, it's okay to like try some other ship over again.
Nah, it's cool. Yeah yeah, jump out there with all kinds of different products or whatever you want to do, you know what I mean, different ideas.
You never know what's gonna work.
Yeah, whatever stick, then that's what's gonna you know what I mean. You might want to put your effort into that. You feel me, but try it, but try it, try it all you feel me. Don't just learn, you know, learn everything. That's what this earth is big as fucked for us to just be sitting in one spot or your mind to be like thinking small. You gotta think big, you know what I mean?
So for sure, And.
What's the ship?
I was just thinking for ya? Well, if you have a do over, like if God gave everybody one due, what's your.
Damn? I'll be asking myself that sometimes too. But if I should do anything over, it'll probably be like some of them jail sentences, you feel me. I probably one or two is cool, you feel me, you know what I mean. But I can't even say that because I know I know some homies that went to jail the first time and that was their first time, and that was it them niggas, ain't they stuck? They ain't never
getting out. You feel me. I went in there and I seen them, and I got out and went back and seeing them niggas again, you feel me like they weren't so happy to see me again. You feel me like the first.
Time, because yeah, they don't want to see you exactly.
You feel me and they wish they could just get out one time, like you got that playing exactly. So I have to keep that in mind, like I can't come back to this ship.
What about you?
You got fart on still marinate?
No, my ship, I wanta do the cap answer.
I wouldn't change anything because everything. Maybe the man that's the that's the.
Cat say that I wouldn't.
I ain't thinking of a bunch of ship. I don't know ship. I probably want to know when in.
The streets, but then it may but.
Then you but the streets, you being in the street.
No, because I already think how I was gonna think anyway, you can't say that. I'm gonna keep one hunding. How you were wired is how you're when you come out. I can't if I came and put the same ship that I knew that was in.
My heart, hold in my heart, your heart was.
What leads you through anything you do. So you come in the streets. I knew right from wrong off how I felt. That's always deal. I ain't for with this because he makes me feel some type of way. I don't fuck with this type of bitch because this, I don't do this. I ain't gonna go here. Somebody call me for a play. If I don't feel right, ain't gonna do it.
So I play to know you don't understand what I'm saying.
So if I'm moving off my feelings, if I was doing a business deal, I would feel I would still move out my feelings like.
I don't feel his energy. So I ain't even gonna talk to him about this business. It's all the same ship ship, but we just didn't know ship. Either you're a determinent or you're not. It is no matter what what gender or life you go in.
You're talking about survival. I'm not talking about survival. Streets taught me survival, true. But what I'm saying is, whoever, whoever you are, it's who you are. Because I know a bunch of women that's never seen the streets, dudes to the never seen of the streets in their life, but they are the most hustling motherfuckers.
You know what they do.
But I'm not talking about other niggas.
What are you talking about? We ain't talking about me. I'm saying the person talking about it.
I'm saying, up in the streets, what do you think he'll be doing? That's the question. I don't know.
But he but he said, But he's saying he was still I would be success. He's saying he's still be the same type of what he was doing.
You'll still be a hustle, you feel me, You'll still be doing the same ship, but just not the streets ship.
Yes, I still be me. I still would feel how I feel, because how you are is who you are.
You're saying this personality breaking down.
Here's what I'm saying.
You're saying that you're gonna be you. You're gonna be a hustler and you're gonna feel how you feel. Okay, that's cool and all that ship whatever, whatever, and you're gonna be you. But there's no way in the fun possible that you're still that you would have still been able to be.
But you don't understand that. You can't tell me I was raised through it. She's not with everybody. I'm already and baby son and Barbara's son.
I was already fucked up before I made my choice to be fucked up. Every hit me already.
So if I would have chosen to be like, Okay, I'm gonna take this what I already got from them, all this trumbing, all this ship that I know through life, I'm finna got them for niggle my way through this other.
But that's what I'm saying, he knows through life if you haven't been through.
The I chose to.
Come down.
The streets. That was a choice, and I was born in the streets. I chose to get my money out of the streets, and I was already born to streets ship, So I was already who I was before I made the choice to go in the streets and say, I don't myself.
You don't understand what I'm saying.
You said personality, nigga.
Just think about any nigga who grew up fucked up.
And it's a lot of niggas who grew up fucked up with their parents and ship was this and that, but they chose the other way. Them motherfuckers be unstoppable. He's what I'm trying to take all the people.
I know, the niggas I got good parents and live in a good neighborhood and still charge the street.
Yeah, but you understand them.
I saying, like the niggas who got both sides of it, I can peak everything.
So when you go into corporate with that type of mindset, them folks can't even fuck with you because you was already built off survival from the rip.
But what I'm saying, listen to what I'm saying.
And I don't know if we're speaking two differentlang.
We were talking about two different things.
Whatever's going on.
But in order for you to be this unstoppable nigga that is able to peep everything and it's able to be a monster in the courtroom, I mean not the courtroom.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't mean to say that, in the boardroom, in the corporate area and all that kind of shit. If you hadn't been through all the shit that you've been through in your life to go through those different experiences to be able.
Can't say that, Jay, you already done went through it as a child like that, Like telling these kids that's growing up in these rough neighborhoods, ain't eating all this shit that they gotta go on the streets to be something else.
No, they can do that same trauma and pain that they.
Gone through right now as kids and choose a way to go. Just think about this, That's what I'm trying to tell you.
Just think about this.
If I chose a route to go instead of hustle, that's what I'm saying. Like being a hustle, I still was gonna be me regardless of what I do. I'm still gonna be me. That's who I am. I'm already this as a kid. This is how you're wired. This is who you are. You go in the streets and try some street ship to get the fast money, right, that's cool. Just man, if I took that same I gotta do it attitude to something else.
I didn't have a choice but to go do what I need to do too.
But if you don't have that and then just straight just.
Off, I'm gonna go work this ship up. I'm gonna go. I ain't saying no job. I'm finna start a business. You gotta think in school, I sold candy, I told groceries. I did all this ship. This ship was making me money as a kid like we told groceries, we pump gas, we do all this shit.
Hell my shoes and shit, nigga make kool aid. You know what I'm saying, All that shit can be turned into something else and be a fucking entrepreneur with that mindset.
Then it's what I'm saying, Like, learn how to be thinking about it's dude, about the DNA, like your DNA of how you before you even because you don't you're not one years old.
In the streets. You know what I'm saying. You have to go through You know what I'm saying, Well, you don't have a choice.
You don't have a choice.
Well, you don't have a choice.
You don't have a choice, right right, You.
Know what I'm saying.
So I chose to go on the streets, went in the streets and got money out the streets. If I would have chosed this is what I said. If I had to do it, I wanted to chose the street. I would have chose to go get money early, doing the like Jermain did Jamaine.
The Free, He had a choice. He can gonna be in the streets and do whatever. He chose music at a young age because the influence was.
He already had to drive to go be big and whatever you're gonna be, bigg.
It be the influence you got around you too. If you in the hood, and your influences the homies and the donk dealers, the drug dealers and niggas that got money, or the ones that got the status or the respect for being who they are, like them, the ones you're gonna look up to being that young and being like close to the to the industry. For sure, it helped them figure it out in that situation. In that sense, like all right, well, ship, this is what I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna big executive because share all the niggas that's around me, executives, you know what I mean?
So something to put a record together, they say, anything else to spell the lyric that go, the streets made me, the streets raised me.
I can't think of whatever when they say ship like that, the y'all agree or disagree with that.
When they say the streets made me the streets, I agree with that.
But the thing about it is, at the end of the day, who you are is who you are.
You can go in streets and still be a bit you a nigga.
For sure, you can go in the corporate rooms and be a real nigga, like it's pus his niggas everywhere and it's real, is what it is. What I'm saying is you.
We all have a choice, Like do I regret no, because it is what it is.
I want a few niggas get a chance to do something else after that ship.
The niggas don't.
But seeing all the niggas that chose the same ship and couldn't hell of it, it's like, you know not like the easy way is this ship, this ship were working at like it's nothing. All the niggas that we looked at his lane like choosing that route to go. Learn these niggas is stable doing ship. I got a probably on the car like he got three four call lot damn niggas little got a call lot three on successful.
He doing all the same ship he struck. But these niggas is regular niggas.
They went through the same shit, was all cold, all fighting, all got damn shooting guns.
All that ship is kids.
But them nigga chose to do some other ship and that ship work mm hmm. Niggas still can't do that though.
That's the goal right now, still for sure, the new generation. But she I think that's where it's going right now. You feel me like when we was growing up, everybody wanted to be self made or be a CEO, be business man. You feel me like you can't easy we was, we was, We was only limited to choices. We had choices, but we don't have many choices, you feel me. The choices that we had it was slam, you know what I mean. Now the choices now this generation ship they can be whatever.
You feel me and the niggas start and ship like just think about niggas like Dezzy Banks and niggas like that number the phone diy hard nigga had number the phone where they niggas change the game, like niggas can choose that now he's the same niggas. These niggas, the same niggas have seen all this street ship all their life, but they ump and to do this.
You got your niggas to just take the easy around. I'm just going streets and take whatever come with this ship when you can really for not even that, just put put this ship over here and do this. This ship works. You know how many nigga talented.
It's not doing what they what they talent is in the hood right now because they want to be cool.
That's real, Like this nigga's a real COMMUNI know.
They need to They need they need to have people around them telling them that is cool to do that ship. You feel me like like eventually they got to look at who they who they around and be like, damn this nigga really want to shoot me failin He gonna let me keep doing bullshit. Ain't nobody gonna tell me to stop. I'm gonna tell Who's gonna tell me what I'm doing is wrong? You feel me? Everybody gonna keep
just let me do bullshit? You feel me, Ain't nobody gonna be like, nigga, Yeah, keep doing your ship, do some good ship or you know what I mean.
But you gotta listen to niggas in jokingly hating ways ship that you take his hate like you go around. You gotta say ship like you're supposed to be a comedian. You find here, don't take that person. You might do right right right right. You might do don't he might be you might get some good ship.
Mother, do some stand up nigga and get paid me.
Yeah, man, I say you make your own You make your own choices. Like what you're saying is like you can make your choice too. If you're a strong enough will person, you can make your choice to not go that way or go this.
Way, because at the end of the day, if it comes to your mind, you can do that. Ship.
I'm to chase their dreams, but then they feel like their dream is lame or chasing their dreams.
Yeah, yeah, like I'm gonna go do what except instead of what I do that, I feel like this ship makes me feel good doing it.
This ship do kind of change as you get up because when you're a sup, when you're a kid, kid, kid, you say I won't be a firefighter, won't be an astronaut and all this ship, and then especially if you're in that type of environment, it becomes like that ain't.
How you're gonna be around around nigga smoking weed, shooting dice. You're gonna be an astronaut around.
But it should have been that one nigga at the dice game, Like, yeah, nigga, it needs to be one nigga in the hood that's an astronaut.
You know what I mean? You feel me like encourage the nigga to.
Do this ship. You feel me, so I don't know it do you kind of gotta blame it on the environment too, though, you know what I mean, the motherfuckers you're around because you can have a dream. But if ain't nobody like trying to hear that ship, you know they can't they can, you know what I mean? Make you think otherwise you feel me and how you're doing some other ship, you feel me.
But what you gotta think though, niggas just take the easy wrap because niggas don't. Niggas don't believe in you when you try to rap and it's calm to do. Nigga don't want to believe in your the until you start popping. Yeah, nigga don't want to believe in you to you whatelse that damn everything you do, that's everything you do. So but niggases not doing ship, they really really gifted that to please other niggas. Yeah, that's cold for sure.
Yeah, you gotta be your own.
You gotta be your own individual now you got you gotta you gotta think for yourself. You can't let nobody think for you if you if you let everybody make your choices. Bro, you ain't gonna be a man in your own. You ain't gonna be no thinking of everybody thinking for you. You feel me, you gotta Yeah, you gotta think for yourself. That's cool. Ain't nothing wrong with that?
So what you're doing?
Mm hmm my do over?
She would have took that shroom for this enemy.
Probably I Probably I would have realized my value like a lot sooner, like a lot of ship that I do or that I have done for people, Like I do everything out of the kindness on my heart. But it's like a lot of shit that people took advantage of, Like a lot of people took advantage of my kindness or like my nice because I allowed them to how they take advantage because they.
Because you didn't put a price on what your value and then you supposed to come to just stay here.
No, no, no, no not it's not that. It's just that it was a lot of ship that I did and that people knew that like I was gonna do just because they know like okay, well Jade's here, she's gonna do it, or she's gonna get it done, or you know this me so I know she's gonna make
tron straight you know what I'm saying type ship. But I lost out a lot because in those same situations, if it was if it would have been another person there in that predicament or in that scene or whatever, then it would have been like, oh, no, fuck that, you gotta pay me, or fuck that, you gotta do this, this, this whatever whatever. But I'm not tripping because at the end of the day, everything that I do is from the heart with no strength or expectations.
Over then that ain't making no sense, like making sense?
Okay, so what that makes sense?
That's a lesson learned. That's a lesson learn you learned.
Because it happened at the right time you start. Who how did you realize your value?
But maybe that's.
We had a conversation.
Okay, so when you realize your value, then with your value was the tip top, then your value probably probably do that yourself.
Yeah, you built your value.
Off the counts of your heart and then you getting talked dollar for sure, So I guess that wouldn't be a do over.
Yeah, like okay, yeah, that's a lesson.
It's a lesson, not a not a but like real ship, I wouldn't everything that I've done up until this point has like made me into the person who I am, and I'm I'm overly grateful and appreciative for that. So I guess I appreciate the lessons.
Shoes.
Oh yeah, that was a bad day for me. Is a bad day for me?
Yeah, I mean I said, of our lives is set up a certain way. Everybody lives is set up a certain way. It ain't nothing that we supposed to do over. We're supposed to.
Yeah, you're right, because I probably wouldn't do a do over because I wouldn't know better. See now I'm speaking from if I knew how I felt. Now you get what I'm saying. I get you know what I'm saying, Like, you know what you'll do over?
Now?
Like now you win because you you wasn't.
In you made you made the decision because you felt like it was right at that time.
Oh yeah, now now you're looking back, Like, so I get that's a regret. How the duo?

Most prostitutes sell their top in their bottom. Correct, But do they get checked every day? Not what I'm saying. We're saying that we're saying that clean because they use condoms. But if they're not using condoms and dental it's like a fifty fifty toss up.
