This very ground we're standing on. I went to church right, damn you know what I mean, Like all them old people that poured into me every day, that ever pulled me to the side and gave us some good advice of a teacher that believed in me like I really from my heart of heart says thank you because I couldn't.
I couldn't have made this album without this city.
Right how I felt to be like really stable in your city, like somewhere that you came up, you went through the ups and downs.
That's all I'm saying.
Yeah, that's all I wanted, and not you know, I noticed I wanted in the stereo tips. I want a nigga to know me, respect me. You know, I know our man. You know my nephew knew our n all. That a kind of nigga who from Elevend, Like that's some pretty ship, the big ship to live up to in terms of know the rioting all on the street of ship. But I wanted to be like my grandmother, like being a kleinch could get to the mayor sixth on call. And she was a nurse. She wants she
was a nurse. She was moved him from Alabama in nineteen fifty. She she slept, she was right down there in Xon Hell. She said a cousin. You know how women get some times, she said a cousin. My cousin had a man over. My grand said she wouldn't even let her. She wouldn't even let her come in the house.
I said, what you do?
She said, I slept on the porch and I went inside watched myself. Then I walked to the nursing school. She said, I knew I wasn't gonna live. I wasn't gonna say with the health for too long. Next time, you know, they say she was so mean. She worked at the Cayan chicken factory, and say she ain't like the lady. This to her, say she got hooked on seeing it would pull it up. Say she was quiet, so I won't wanted to do what the hell had saved me. So she was a very determined woman, you know.
So my thing was she was. She reminded me of you want her connectivity with the community and people, Jake, And that's all I ever wanted. I wanted for my grandfather. He said, don't embarrass herself and take care of your sister. Don't embarrass me and your mama name it, don't embarrass black people. So to me, that was success. Yes, successful. If I could go to another neighborhood and they say, well,
it's such such a grandson, getting meant something. When I went to my grandmother's funeral, it was you the thought of politician, Now you thought a city council person say that. So that's really yeah, I wanted to be known in Atlanta. But like her, like I love the other ship, my
offa that was on that races ship. But man like her man she could just walk in the city council, I mean, and the city counsel people smoked to her, you know what I'm saying, And she ran the pretension she was regular because she was gonna be the same lady taking food, ding to doing her neighborhood for the legacy residents.
Who was So that's all I wanted.
I would respecting a lot of different rooms, everybody from the Chamber of Comments to the motherfucker standing front of Amaco. I figure, if I figured that out, I was cool the rest of my life. That's why I won't ever leave the city. I won't move nowhere else because I travel. I'm a visit bout two weeks of ship. Been cool by I see y'alls later. Cool and dude, I couldn't smoke over all the other shit.
But I love it Lanta.
I love it landa like man like like you know, like a like a Christian love church yeah, what you think? What you think missing in Atlanta right now when we talk about, you know, the new Atlanta and the field being different, more black people cooperate with one another, and more black and white people understanding that co.
Operations was gonna push all us forward.
I don't know who the white boy was in Buckhead and moved down here wanted the Buckhead sixteed, God bless it.
So we stoked a lot of feeling lout of bullsh a. White folks who've.
Been in Atlanta and been in Georgia longe enough. You know that we know how to sit at the table. Everybody don't always get what they want. Most people don't get everything they want, but we walk away even though we're a little more uncomfortable the greater good of Georgia, sir.
That's why you look at the state like Georgia.
We've been number one in business the last ten years now, that's ten years in terms of growth, re develoment in Georgia number And I don't know too man niggas who want jobs who can't get them in George. You know, you might don't get the job and walk, but God damn is some good jobs here. You know what I'm saying. I had a cousin, did six years Federal fellow pension for time in Alabama, came home, worked for the city of Atlanta. Now this nigga got everything I got. Nigga
got the same watch. Nigga got a better cutts just pine job, better got and talk now young cousins about that type. So so for me, we're not perfect. There's no utopia, but I got a shot here. You know, I got an opportunity.
I stayed a chance.
And so what we need is more black people coming here for that reason to say I really I'm willing to work hard and wouldn't learn Right now, I give y'all a secret. Ain't nobody else on tee until we figure out how to get a good state. While propaganda campaign, Georgia needs trades people and they pay him chop do offs. So if you're traveling nurse, you can come here and make one hundred and sixty hours. They're gonna pay you
sixty nine months. They gonna see you back home. But if you're a nurse here, if you're a high school girl right now, you don't know what you want to do. You're a high school boy seventeen eighteen years old. You can start going to area texts or trade your school now getting your real to your nursing degree. Go on, get matriculated, you frow your nurse degree. You make sixty dollars an hour. They paying that a pem, Well they not tomorrow and they shortstand.
They need nurses.
They need truck drives because that port is getting built in surround them.
Dunt truck's got to come in and out.
Y'all needs who got out whom I can't get no job that Look the ship you are bearing in your mama yard. Get a dump truck, Get your old lady in the financial truck. Get that motherfucker to movie, you know what I mean? Because right now they need it, and they gonna need it for the next fifteen to twenty years they need. Does a Georgia Youth be a program that I that I support, that I talk a lot about and that I've gotten money too, you know
what I mean? And they take fourteen to twenty four year old children, they give them trades, electricians, carpentry, wheeling and.
Kind of shiit. What's the name of Georgia Youth? Build Georgia.
Randy over the shots of Christina, but they take these kids so the same kids. That's man that love this kind of ship. You can have all this ship and have a job where you ain't got to work yourself to death. It works out of that hours and not. You can't have it on some imagine y ship. This is what they need now, you know, the governor, the government you know, he me, I know a lot of niggas get mad. You know, well, now niggas only man niggas.
Niggas understand. Niggas have worked with everybody of them. I'm fucking more house show.
Why did you take that picture? What? What was the governor? Nigga? You're a Republican. I know, I'm just asking my nigga.
I know you votever.
You like I took.
I was interested in saying, hey, man, we need more trades program because our girls going to school.
We need instead of sending either boy.
To jail with and what a young two years after you go through the fire, people say all these things, but people who pay by another party to say things, the same party you help. When after that you get a call he said, hey, I want you to come to the Georgia work for some and then you get in there and you realize, I'm in here with the most powerful people in Georgia. I'm in here with the black woman who's the head of AT and T. I'm in here with the black man who's the head over
Lockheed Martin Hill. I'm here with other black people. But I might be the only nigga in the wrong. I might be the only people person's gonna come, gonna come back off their mountain top down to the valley and say, on Simpson Road.
As this is what's happening for the next ten, twelve, fifteen.
Ye're gonna tell these mama's out there with these boys. They need your boys holding hands, They need your boys wiring shit. They need your and they need them on Tyler Perry Studio. They need them behind trucks going up and now. And they're gonna pay. I'm a ship ton of money. Nigga's gonna be all the jury. They want to out the whole school, they want to have a pension, take care of the kids. All you got to do is direct them that thing.
Do a show up. We ain't hard. You already you know how to hook up a video game. You already smarter than me. You know.
So I just I want to see us saying. I want to see this city be what it was for my grandmother. And that's a place for a girl who came out to a sky Outabama. Came up here out the country. You know, they weren't pope, but boy, they sharecropped, they bought their own land out.
She came here.
She raised a foundation that gave a family. Me and my sisters are successful. One of my sisters, Master b tis Shaw. Other my sisters an account with the Jillie University. We grew up writing this same neighborhood. We ain't got too many tragedy story, no family trauma.
You know, we went through.
Everything in the other black family, you know. But what we what we didn't ever do, is stop person being. And that's all I want to see us do. If we do that, I die happy old man like Andy around this moment. You know, you know what I'm saying. Andy Young is gonna talk about those and may not know, but that's how I want to be one mold. I want to say I contributed to an environment that could create more successful black people.
If I do that, on so, let me ask you a question.
With that being said, do you think that that vision is still possible since it's such a huge difference between the grandmothers of yesterday and the grandmothers of today.
Oh no, your grandmama's a fucked up then too. They don't think your grandmother and this no blues, Then fuck your granddady. You don't know who your auntie daddy is. Why your AUNTI light skined? Everybody don't look like you.
Your grand ain't just a good nigga though, that man that's my daughter to got get so old. People were not perfect. Don't listen to their music. No, no, no, I know, yeah, no, I know that. But I'm just saying, like.
What I'm saying is, when you become my grandmama, you can still do all that ratchet dad ship outside your house, but be your grandmama.
I think.
I think what she's saying is there's a difference between Mahelia Jackson and Sexy Red. I ain't talking about Mahelly Jackson. I'm talking about stagger Lee. Okay, you stagger Lee was a pill who was stetson, who killed the nigga that was my granddad.
I remember, that's my granddad.
I thought I thought end up gaving some bad Ship and he's like, niggah, it ain't not a stack of lake.
They ain't even killed nobody for real. I went went to the library. That's when the niggas didid like ye donna do. I went to the god the library. I didn't do it.
To do it, decimal system read up on the funt found the rest of the library to Ship said this nigga was cold. Yeah, man, black people being doing. Oh, listen to Muddy Waters for sure, you know what I mean.
Listen to how they say. Women act. They want to talk about the me and they want to all nigua. I want to kill this nigga, they.
Say, man it this then left me missing, left for another nigga cross town.
Yeah he's speaking, you're speaking, but.
What but what what? Your grandmother had sense enough to understand what she was twenty seven? If I fuck up had this baby by this other niggacause I ain't no playing here who it did. I got to lock in with this nigga on Wick. I got to be one hundred percent with him. And all I'm saying is for the Grandmoma's out there with y'all ratchet asses, locking in for them. Babies say that ratchet ship for the ratchet time, go out to the club. Fuck all night, you do
up to it. But but but for them eight hours that them babies with you. Them babies need to thank you God, because you're the closest thing in the guard too. You know what I'm saying, Your mama, you raised that girl. You can get mad about that girl you raised to them. You know you knew her faults. You knew that motherfucker
was slipping a little bit. So now that you got top and give your chance, I realized my grandma raised her so well because she had a duel, She had a dow, she had a duo, she could have children. She liked working outside. They say when she was a looker and I got I got all pull out later on the pennic. I keep her behind my mama. Usually people see the nise. My mama didn't know about the niece.
But miss Benny. Benny was a country girl. My wife and joked, my wife telling my grandmothers lis Man, she'd be making Mama shayan, I'm gonna be like this. My grandmama liked working outside to the day she died. She would cut off the grass, cut on heads and ship. She would die walking up the hill on my arms at seventy nine years old. So she never was really with no girly she she didn't like cooking, being in
the house, all that kind of shit. She understood as a woman, I'm gonna do this to accommodate my husband and to take care of child. So when she had when by the time she got a childbirth in years got married, she had a lot of miscarris because physically she had worked about it in the field, that's what her presumption was.
But she had my mama naturally.
I had an adopted Jeane aunt named Jeana died as a child, and a fire my autistic uncle that was adopted. My grandma was an adoptor, taking foster of children and and ship. My mama was the only want she had, so she spoiled my mom. Oh man, my mama had new clothes every season. My mama was pressed as she could be. And then somewhere along the lines, you know, my mama with all this, my mama wanted, but I
love you, I want her your mama grandmama. Step that was once I told me, I said, why do you never say?
She said, I feed you. No, She said, I feed it on that. I feed you.
Ass Fat said, she's saying your life on it.
And she said, what I got to say it for you?
And I went back to my room and I'm talking about do we arguet seven eight nine years old?
And I said, damn, like she don't just say she show us every day.
So I realized that at some point in her life, my mama gave her due over. My mama decided to have me at fifteen, she's a friend dog with high school. She had me, and when she got married to my son, have two dads. When she got married to my second dad, she she married and my grandmother. I literally remember my grandmother saying, no, let him stay with me and Willie and we'll raise him, and you gonna learn how to
be a wife. See when my grandma, my grandma kund of new she had put some bad product out there and hold my mom to spoiled the ship out in her life, made him do too much. So she got to go learn her and this guy and learn each other. So my grandmother raised me and my sisters almost radically different than she raised my mom. She was very accommodating my mom. My mom had a lot of friends, my sisters. You know, she kept a closer eye, you know that kind of My sisters didn't get pregnant, they got out
of the house. But I realized that she understood that what we put in these kids from morals and principles is man. She got good morality with my mother, But my mother just spoiled the things. She didn't give us a lot of things, but what she gave us was principles, morals and tevity. And my grandfather did too. So that so that's for me. Your grandmama's out there, that's mission. You can do all the ship you want.
Time. Remember, my grandma came in. I don't know she drank. She was drunk a ship.
I don't know if she went to see BB King and this went to a party bother. She came back singing BB King three in the morning. And when she was behind the door, fucked up looking, I was looking like the damn wouldn't gotten this mother fucker. My granddaddy calm usually eat a nigga that's drunk, you know what I mean. He had a good week. But I realized that, oh this is a human being. She right, and she and what she said is from because at forty four was when when I was born, she was forty four.
She dedicated the rest of her life that she was seventy nine to shepherd and me through this wilderness. You know what I mean, I think as a grandmama and a grandfather, I have seen grandfather them say a lot of niggas man. You know, I haven't seen my partners as grandfather's in the Thursday and forty be a whole different.
Yeah. Yeah, so you know, just just just you know.
Right here's about to ask you what you really just about as like, because every time I see you, and then's time I ever seen you over there is like energy the same.
Like it's just like you get get It's like magnetic. You know what I'm saying. I appreciate it.
Like even if I'm down, I see you, it's like something I just could see you on my energy, my vibration.
Like what you think you got that from Grandma, from both of them, both of my grandparents, you know big and my wife. You know what I mean, Like you know, like my granddaddy was, I could go to any any city, council persons, the church and you know somebody know my grandmoma I go to any gaming house and craft shoot in the pool hall or any play working man cargame folk new with a shirt woodick.
You know. My grandfather was the man I just wanted to be.
And again, I was so hyper local that the bigger world on the white folks I seen on PBS. I say, mister Rogers, and you know Ross, you.
Know, I like you every white folk.
My grandfather was really not pro fucking around with each other any way. You just like, nah, this ship been too fucked up, too long, Go to work, come home, take care of y'all. But but what, but what they both gave me was just like a strong identity and sense of who I was. I think, man, really, man, what you're getting from me is just old people have a sense of mortality. A little do volve when he be talking, you know, a little do vall. You understand,
he understand he gonna die one day. So he treated every day as I learned so much from him because he reminds me of like my grandfather's We can't control the day. I'll can do that side try these little drink on bore that kind of ship. But you really don't know, so why why why give you fucked up energy. You know why, why waste my time with it?
You know what I mean?
I didn't, I didnet did that ship in the posturing and ship. I ain't a teenager no more, you know. And even when I was a teenager, I realized I had the ability to impart hood on people.
So let me do that.
He was like, I could go to Decter and funk around, make a little money if I want to buy some nice shit, because them niggas aren't gona kill because.
They liked me because I didn't. And if you gain more that, you was gonna get more that my own.
My art teacher man who mister Murrays from Bookie w Washington High School, Morris Brown. Now the kids who used to teach the paint now he teaches the farm and ship growing food. I gotta take you out. I take you both, y'all.
Y'all like him. But that man said, man, he he said you ever you ever notice people who give blessings never run out of blessing to give? Yes?
Yes, But he hit he hit me with that ship, like I was like, man, so I'm gonna keep doing this some days. I'm gonna tell you, I gotta say like like, man, when you are giving, like you, you gotta thank certain people and my team whether it's bad or wrong. Duing my man Mike, get me and my man cous you know, my wife Shay. Like they get the whole, they get the other side.
You know what I mean. You know what I'm saying. They see the whole here.
So you gotta you gotta, you gotta, you gotta be thankful of that and mindful. But what you gotta do is make sure that ain't the mic that win on the daily basis. So part of me getting y'all with energy, just trying to remind myself a fat boy, keep it, keep your head up and don't don't get doubtful out here, don't get worried, don't get anxiety and ship like that because that's bad for you, and that's that'll make you bad for other people.
I just don't want to be bad for people.
Yes, man, Yes, yes, Energy is everything and and.
You give it.
You man, you get so many mean confidence in this game like you you have you you have for you, I've seen you and I've seen and God bless that we were talking about juice. Possibly Yeah, see y'all woman who used to do starting not started a magazine with them. But I seen y'all put more into rappers that were after thoughts, and I thought about not believe, and you don't understand what that righteous figure up woman?
They said anything else about what you know?
People got some folks got mad when I said and died by law. I say, maybe she ain't describe God. I said, maybe she ain'try. We're worshiping all those Fiveic ideals and depth, and the devil's keep praying on us. You know, niggas here you know God ain't woman. Okay, I hear you, nigga. I knew you were Muslim. Now your Hebrew nigga, so I understand you. But what I was trying to, what I was trying to express in their ball is, you know, the closest, the closest of the first rips to take the God.
I saw the child was a black woman because our breastfead man.
Yeah, and a lot of young people didn't get that. You man, you give young men and women in this induty. You give young women and an integrity field person to follow to understand, I don't have to simplytray my body for advancing. Now, you just want to have fun.
That's you.
So you've never been pretentious about that. And beyond that, you show young men that they can have a loving, care and nurture relationship with a woman and then not be used a relationship.
And I've always be mind you start running out.
But I was just like I'm big on energy because I feel like and don't get me wrong, and don't ever get it fucked up because I have my days
where like, yeah, I'm some whole other ship. But I learned from Black like a long time ago, like when you're able to like see that that's what you're on, like just kind of keep yourself away from people until you can kind of like shake it off or you know, like get rid of it and then pop back out, you know what I'm saying, and and be back on like the regular ship.
But like it's it's just a lot of people.
Like you said, don't have that positive energy anywhere around them. So if I can give a hug or or give a nigga like fucking my phone number to call me about some shit or you know, anything that can help, Like That's what I'm gonna do because I feel like that's why I'm here to make that contribution to society.
And if you'rebow to do that, nobody got to do it.
I don't know why this said, you hate me. He our grandmothers both for the same thing, for different communities. His grandmother was from one of the city in front of the neighborhoods is in the city, you know, so she worked Canada some of her people time. That's where my dad sounded from. My grandmother's on the west side, and they knew each other. So when I first got the record, you know, your grandma gonnadrag you through that hill and you talk to these babies and you're gonna
give something to their cling. So but I didn't. But I didn't know his grandmother, you know what I mean. And his grandmother passed or something. I was on the road. I didn't even realize him something. But I realized that he holds in his heart to hurt that that that's impressed because in his mind our grandmother's when the league, I should have and I just I didn't. I didn't know,
and I don't. I don't know what he wants. So expects our understand where it comes from paining, you know what I'm saying.
The state somewhere adopt. Yeah, I had it, you know, I have it.
I have it because because something, because I had to grow to a point where I understood it too, because that you know, I'm still in a land of nigga still like nigga fuck, you know.
What I mean, And I don't want to be like that. It's like I don't owe you ship, you know what I mean. Because but he don't know. I'm on my ass at the time, Nigga. I'm on my I'm trying to fix it out.
But but but but I understand, so I know if we do talk, it'll be like, man, this is this is how my perspective and and our grandmothers did so much good work. I don't want us to be you know. But yeah, but it took me time to get to this, you know what I'm saying. Because at for just west side in my life, but more and more this sight in the way, like I wrote, me and big Boy, but here's the other guys around me.
But here my grandma call. She said, I'm ashamed of you.
I said, God damn ship making the church, you know what I mean?
You know the church, y'all don't know your mama's and grand Mamma. They got to church.
They know all that chist to the preacher. So you know, I just I have some some of those outstanding things out there. But I just want to give a good energy, give the man. I really love your what what the folk called testimony? Yes, like man, it's just man's ship. It inspires me. No, moms, I don want to give like get yours you saying a nigga bak go go your ass to page, you know, and your courage though to t to say I have changed. Bear Local is one of the only people I know who do a
lot of people. You know a lot Bear bears who you're rap. You're gonna hear me talk about a lot of Atlanta people. So when I think talk about Jay, you don't have to talk about say tag you know sister just out of a strong spiritual community here. But man, I've noticed that young people, and she she is a is a figure that's a mother and sister and comrade.
At the minute.
When when I when I look at Barr and you, y'all's willing to say I've changed? May they give other dudes the courage to say I've changed. So like I watched Big facts because I know the people behind. When I watch it, I don't know it's cool to mention I mentioned drink camps. I never knew Noriega and Noriegans one of the first people talk and say, y'all kill today. Both don't eat nothing, just got the juicies. You're gonna
drink and you're just gonna hit a walk. You know what I'm And I'm like, yo, it became friends from that and he'll say I've changed. I think that's some of the most courageous things being done the camera. Man, you're a real leader. I understand why. Like I understood your leadership from perspective of you know, when it was DUC taping and when it was music, I understood your leadership easy. Then it was it was a kid to
the streets. But beyond that, man, you are truly a leader because after after general wins a war, every general don't get elected president because every general is not fit to lead a nation just because you can win a battle on the war, not only if you're a warrior had been on a war field. You are a diplomatic, a politician, and a shore of a nation.
How to walk into something better, And that's amazing. Appreciate. Yes, you the Joasea Willis in the movement.
You know, I know you're a little younger than me, but like jose Man, Jose was amazing.
And again I'm saying that amout of stuff y'all can do with this.
So Jose Williams, So, y'all know about doctor King, y'all know about Andy Young, y'all know about rap David ab Nasty, you know guys who really don't know about James On who is my personal mentor all these people in the movie selling. But Josel Wis, oh Man, Matt first All, even businessman, so he have the big white folks for ship. His attitude was I'm with my man do or die, and after my man die, I'm about his mission do or die?
They say, Hosey say he talked to a politician.
What do you want? I was on a kiing holiday. Well, we're not gonna be able to do that. Say this, motherfucker, get up a walk out the woom. I don't need nothing else from to fuck me here. Fuck, I think I think your spirit man. It just lets me know that that's still here. What what Jose and Alan Pat did? Y'all are continuing, that's what that's what not saves the city, but that's what poserves us. H. You know, you're like, hey, everybody like you. You real you're gonna.
Send you know.
And he's a great woman, and this is the reason we sitting you know, him and Maynard's vision for economically and internationally what we would come. I want to see black Atlanta. You know, even if you move here from somewhere else, find somebody from Atlanta, you know, and befriend them. You know, stop comparing where you're from, and you still check whatever team you want because your kids don't be braves.
House of failon. Man, We're not worried about that.
But I want people to to understand that there's there's an Atlanta way, a tradition that allows people to grow, that allows an eighteen year old girl to move here in nineteen fifty, own her own house by by the time she twenty. It's a it's a it's a way for a young man who came up on the East
Side die hard conditions. My other grownman, Kirkwood, I need know to exire seeing where Kurtwood in all that shit was what it will be for a young man to come out of that and the mature the bro said, I've changed it from it means something and we can do more of that for y'all to move where you're from and be a part of a place that's expected to succeee. We can do more of that, but we
have to stay decided on that. We can't get divided, you know what I'm saying, or have your divisions behind closed. Those argue after your church means in your living room. But I was public going back and forth. Ship is dumb.
What what do you think about?
Like the people in the mentality of no hope, Like maybe all of us have been there at some point where they their mind their mindset is just look for hope. It's like you're sitting in a cave and you funking around the sea.

Took me twenty years talk about that, talk about that man, because there's there's there's killer might coming in and getting down with like dungeon fucking with outcasts running the Grammy And I'm sure this ship don't have peaks and valleys. But how did you maintain and stay persistent and consistent becase A lot of niggas would gave up.
Man, So I didn't. I didn't. I didn't. I didn't give myself another option.
I ain't saying everybody should do that, but I got my I got my slick ass in the more house. I dropped my dumb ass out of more House. I started doing what easy though selling draws one hard because most of it. You know, if you if you forty five ship the same people that might have been your football culture, you you got their boys club instructor might be asking you to ask a don't on the way to school one morning, You're going to ask you asked folk five times about I need to have some dont on me.

He was like, nah, you got the move. Then he told me, he said you got to move. I say, for what he said, Nah, you can't do this. I realized that I had kind of lit what I could do become me and it really wasn't me. And so I was like, all right, Big about my fance. I think I'm about like fourteen pounds me.

That nigga Big found that shit out. Man, that nigga A man that nigga say hey, man, we got to talk, you know what I mean. I look at Big like a big brother. He said, Man, you got to decide what you're gonna do. He said, make you small, he said, he really saying, nigga.

He's like, You're gonna be a drug dealer or a rapper. And it was at that moment I'm just like, yeah, he just because you can do something on me, do it. And I was smoking like a pack of New Ports, Like for people, this is not a cigarette, it's a joint. But I was smoking like a pack of Ports today as as like a tithe in the guard I gave up smoking when I got the deal and I realized it was just anxiety. I don't should need nigga's gonna
kill me. They know I'm not supposed to be all these nigg that this Usually you start where you live. So I'm like, man, these niggas know I'm smart. And we done went to elementary school for together. The niggas know I went to morninguse.
You know, I'm left.
Then I got moving around Kater because I realized you could move around with a people. That's why I met you, you know what I mean. I'm just like, well, I'm like, they gonna kill. I hadn't really decided said the niggas gonna kill Eventually.
You feel like, why you feeling that?
You felt like I had an experience. I had an experience where it was it was it was It might have been ninety seven, ninety eight. There was a funky little trout, so I had to pivot and fuck with somebody that I wouldn't usually fuck with.
I think I'm now so I wan't much at all. It was just getting through and.
The nigga kept calling me. I seen my grandmama part of the church, so I just pulled up. I said him, get some one to the church. You keep a nigga head off the block, you know what I mean? And she said stay. She didn't like this, she said, steak. So I'm sitting down there with I'm with the old ladies and shit, and I'm just like, okay, It's like I said in the goddamn moved my anxiety getting up.
I'm like, miss this plane that ain't gonna play. But damn, I'm just like, why is nigga gonna keep calling me? And my mind started talking to said, niggas a drop this nigga don't need you.
What what the fuck? He keep calling you for time to go for church? Got the last twenty thirty minutes all right? Mom?
It was it was like watching hearing that last scenes and Good Fellas, damn. And she said, no, the preacher wants to see this nigga want to see me. And then he want to have everybody whole hands and prank whenever he was going. That was evil cast all of those ship you know they asking for some money at work, Well he asking for no money. And I realized I realized my guy in that car got that count. I said, don't answer that. I said, you want to gonna leave
with you. This nigga don't like you that much? Did this nigga can call you fifteen twenty times? It's not this something else, Yeah, it's something else. And it was at that moment I realized, like if you say. And I still didn't get the deal for like another gift, but I started acting and moving differently. I'm moving like I wanted to be a musician.
When when, when? When was it that moment you know, like, yeah, this this is my purpose? This my man? When when I first got it, well, I knew it was my purpose.
Now nine years old, the little boy that's on the on the with the horns and hang on, Michael Covenant, that little nigga knew he was going to be a rapper. And my mama, Denise, Man, God bless her. She was only sixteen years old of me, so I'm now she went twenty five. I tell her I want to be a raffer.
Fuck it.
She spoke a joint hall hall girl raped from a frass encourage the child man, and my mama was man, I was just in love with her.
I was.
I was so in love still am just I thought she was the most beautiful woman on earth. I loved how other people, you know. I go to to Frederick Douglas's we do. It's like almost like an HBCU when you go to the land of public schools yet name for black people and then they still stay really active. I go to her class, and her class say, man, we remember when you was in you know, when you was on your mom hip.
We remember.
And she just man, I was just she just encouraged me always because rap was her music first, raptless you know, it was like who Deny Curtis blow that type, it was.
It was her ship.
When I heard run and the like run DMC, I was like, oh shit, my time her ice. You know, yeah, I'm like I'm all in. But man, she was the person that said.
You can't do it. You know.
My grandmother and grandfather wanted me to just be stable and be responsible, like you know. My grandfather was a was a great dump truck driving drove and had a great goddamn card gang tunk tunky. So he we we didn't never want for anything. I liked when never all the water was always hot, a cold, whatever it needs to be. My grandmother was a nurse, educated woman who married a working class man, y'all.
Motherfucker's out there with you'all.
Opinions. All my teachers were married to working class men. My teachers, if they weren't married to another teacher, they wasn't married to a nigga who was.
A plumber, a nigga who made some good money. That nigga. I remember the money.
Yeah, they like they were like nigga, I can still read Shakespeare, nigga. But there's lock one hundred and twenty five dollars change and we're gonna do this.
But I just, you know, I just man. I was in love with my mom, so once she told me I could do it, it was it. That's what I was gonna do.
Now I'm gonna just tell people who have a dream except the challenges though, Like Miss Egri fourth grade, Miss even said, Michael, you too smart to be a rapper.
Rap won't be around long. It should be a pot.
At fifteen years old, mister jim Berto, who was a man who talked at another high school, came to Maids.
I was in summer school. To Maids.
He said, hey, you want to get paid and learn how to fly? Like what he said, you want to get paid? Yeah, he said, my name is Jim Berto. You'll come to I say, but I'm in some school. You said, you don't come to summer school every day. You'll leave here and then you go. There was another kid in that class who became slim. From one twelve. We learned how to fly planes and aviation mechanics together.
And I say that to say accept challenges, because I accepted the request of the governor to sit in on the Georgia work for summing thing back to that shit I talk about that tour. I tell this story to these people are in the room, like we need a greater work for us. We need to start putting trades and these type of things back in school, including piloting and shit like that. I said absolutely. I say I'm a product of that. And I gave you the testimony.
I told him the story of Jim Purton. At the end of the thing that God comes up to me and say I just hung up on Jim. He says he's proud of So when you accept challenges in your life, you never know how God is disguising the growth. You pray for the growth God, God, I want to be a rapper at nine years old, Lord, I want to be a rapper at ten years old, and it's either said you're too smart to be a rapper, be a pilot. I don't think about it for five years, and five years up opportunity comes up and.
Learn how to fly. I take it based on being a challenge for ms Evil. I come back after I do that course.
Tim is easier because she's working at Antioch Baptist Antioch with I think it's Antioposa.
On morning, I said, it's easily. I said, I'm your old student.
Michael said, I remember, I said, listen, Missila, I still gonna be a rapper. I said, to that fine, I said, yeah, I like it. Like I said, I said, I'm gonna keep I'm gonna keep doing that. You know what I'm saying. So for me, man, your dream is is yours. And I didn't even know you made a lot of money back at the time. You know, I just wanted to be a rapper. So for me, the dream was pure, or when I knew about it was pure because I was nine. I was so young now being a business person.
When I knew that is probably twelve years ago. And that's the next phase of my life. I want to be the rares rapper I can be. To me, there's no greater than Scarface. There's nothing greater than Brad Jordan. Everybody you can put Brad Jordan one and whoever you want to after that is all. But to me, you're talking about consistency. The guy right next to him too short.
If I can have that type of consistency and length of career and that type of greatness of reaching the human emotional depth and expressing that in a Damnar Shakespearean like way, that's what I want.
But with all that said, I've seen this guy named Magic Johnson and what he did for my city.
He not even from you, but I remember when when he brought the movies back Mareen, right when he brought a starbus cascame.
I remember.
And he's done all of this while helping other black people not only be employed but have in the growth of the leaders.
And and I I'm inspired by that, and I decided that this is what I want to do.
That hip hop they say the four elements were, you know, break dancing and be boying, graffiti, turntablism.
DJ and the rapping.
But I would add, you know, if you got them for debase, you have the crown you have here with economics, you know, trap music has made a lot more money than cocaine may have ever made. When you think about fact, when you're looking at one artist, you're looking at ten to forty different jobs around that artists, you know what I mean. So for me going, I knew that about twelve years ago, and I got everybody will know me, no shame, I talk about popping this.
That's my wife.
And you know some days got damn, that's my dog. We all in some days, nigga, we disagree, but you ain't gonna never not see us together. And that's that's just a shot. And I've seen that with my grandparents. But I remember I got a little sixty hours of my first room. Because you don't hit money because you win a Grammy.
You know, when when when when I want the Grammy, I'm already reached, you know, I mean, I want my grandmy, you know what I mean.
But after after, after Drake decided to you know, pursue acting and stopped touring. After the big was trying to figure out what to do. The whole Purple rooman together. It was no acting movement. So not like that, You're not like you're not getting show money either. So you know what I had to understand is that, man, the woman that I picked. I always said, I hit the lottery because I bought the ticket and I had to
sit there and make a decision. I was sitting down here like, God damn, because you know you're fucking fire, but you ain't really say it to yourself.
Be honestly, sit them down and talk to them. They might understand you know what I mean.
You don't have the courage to do that. But man, I bet on this little this little chick from Savannah. Man, she just she was a nursing school. She was determined. That motherfucker reminded me of my grandmother. Right, I'm like this little motherfucker up here. She told, frown need two weeks on your flow, and I have my own apartment. I was fucking with another broad in the back of the apartment.
She lived there. I didn't know. I pulled up. I said, oh, ship on for me here. The first week, I said, Hey, I ain't gonna we're gonna ask.
I ain't gonna be a I'm gonna think I'm a bet on this little motherfucker. See, but got like sixty band and I said, what we're gonna do. I said, well, you know, my whole thing has always been laying get you a piece of land so that if the worst come, I pushed tend to sleep on this motherfucker.
I know how to fish. I know doing town five.
So I went and found Hooper House on the west Side because I knew the west Side is only three miles of downtown. I knew were on man about our first property. And she didn't want no she didn't want no bag. She drove that goddamn Honda, she had a she had juiced to her bad. That's a fake, Louis. She'd give a fuck, you know what I mean. I just but I is love that spirit about it. And I just said, I said, now going forward, I gotta I gotta transform my mind.
I gotta think like a business person.
I gotta take the lessons my grandparents told me about money, and I kinda started applying it.
We were able. I used to tell my wife.
She's like, you know what I'm saying. We all grew up hold you know, And one day she just she said, Nigga, y'all was rich. And I'm like, I never heard nobody
say no, sit like that to me, like richite. We grew up on the west side, so our houses, all the little nine hundred square foot houses that border, that's the buffer between bowing homes, and say Martin Luther King and White Weather doctor King's parents, Harma Russell them there the rich black folks is here, allays working class niggas is here, and then them niggas on go see about your ass is here. So I never considered myself rich. But she said, nigga, y'all had an r V. I said, yeah,
because my granddaddy he never saw this. She said, Nigga, your granddaddy had another house. She said, your grandparents lived a life as such. They used, they reached sources to make sure you guys had and what they didn't give y'all in Jordan's and clothing and shit like that. I said she had spoiled my mother into Initially, they gave y'all an experience. We went everywhere late one for soccer Blue. We were traveling and me and I started to understanding, Man,
what I had was opportunity. When I had a bigger imagination, I wouldn't limited it in my view, So understanding that she was the right pair for me and we could have something together. And if I if I what I love the story Guoci told me. Guta I left, I had two million left. I gave this ship and my girl.
I came back. It was six.
You know, nig niggas be training and thinking. Be But nigga, who's the girl when you get when you get, when you get locked up? If you leave over with ten thousand, you come out, your ten thousand gonna be there. That's cool. I had I had a girl like that in there, but boy, fuck around to come out and it's fifteen to twenty five and added to it, that's that's a difference. That's just a different you know what I mean. I got a call from my account. Hey yeah, you know, yeah, yeah,
he'll little hell, a little dude. He did my stereotypical my my account. I love him, a little Jewish dude.
I love him to death. He said, I want to talk to you. I said, what you want to talk about? I was either I just talked about eighty thousand dollars move and I don't know what that means. I didn't talk to you and share about it together.
And she said, and so they talk boy, because she she won't know where her money at all time.
So I said, what the fuck this nigga called this ship for?
I was like, he know, whatever move she's making, I'm not gonna I called and said, hey, man, you I said, I got a call.
Man. What's say he? She said what I told that motherfucker don't say that. I said, what what? What's wrong? She said, the house you bought me? I bought her a house. She grew up in her grandmother's house.
She said, we now have an airbnb in Savannah, and I tried to She took me to Savannah the next weekend. This motherfucker house totally redme. And I'm like, why, why wouldn't I trust this motherfucker with my life? Saying I had I had fell out from fucking dehydration exhaustion, and I woke up. I told this man, I'm in the hospital. I'm an want to road and she wouldn't leave my side. They said anything else to spell?
What a big fan? Do you look at marriage as a as a business partnership?
That man, it's a it's a few things. It depends on your marriage, Taylor fit your marriage. See, I'm an artist. I know how to go out and make money. I'm a I'm a good idea person, but that I'm a funk up side. No, No, in part, absolutely it is, especially when you're involved state in your business.
If we just we country though, you know we country for you know.
What I mean. So it's just like I'm a mayor and I'm locked in. I saw my grandparents. I saw my grandfather's three to walk away once, you know what I mean. My grandmother she did some ship that was that he didn't like, and after that she was like, hey, man, that's not gonna happen again, you know what I'm saying.
Like like he was.
He he had caught a duy years and my grandma just hyper about it because she didn't want us to ever wake up and they not be there, you know, to depend on. And so she had one of their mutual friends drive her to she had gave she had got left the cantact my white family she worked for. She gave it to my grandfather. But she was just saying, She'm gonna take the car home with him with the time to get you comb. But my granddaddy got so pipe on how a nigga hand drawn over there?
Now that one him popa though, and I just know her. I wouldn't I mind it. But listen, I ain't the old nigga different. Listen, my gad, I don't. First I thought they he was gonna kill somebody. This nigga was sold. They didn't even read at this.
I was like, fuck me, and my sister's like, hey, we're wrong. Then Nigga started packing this ship. They started packing his fucking ship. And my grandmama like, no, Willie, you can't go. She calm, and usually you know, she'll huff up a little bit. But Brown Bert that Nigga had killed two niggas in his life too, so I realized she probably hadn't met on the masks, you know, saying. But she said, and this is the only thing that comes down. She said, you didn't come here angry. If
you leave, you can't leave it. And he put everything back in head and each winter said and they just it was never spoken of again, but that was the one time. So for me, it's a it's a it's a business arrangement. In that my grandfather was functionally illiterate. He had to drop out in third grade because his father left. He had to raise his sister to help his mother. So his check came home on my ring.
Now what he made gaming and on the side driving dup truck on the weekends, you know, for for you know, for small contract. That was his money, but his check the check. So I saw that kind of business arrangement, like okay, then, so I learned, Okay, if you if you can't trust with the check that ain't a woman, don't do that, you know what I'm saying. Or if you have a woman that's feelings with money, you better be more disciplined money. So it's a business arrangement.
In that set.
Just just just to me, fuck with somebody who understands living adam below your means and can do that which they're gonna ride around. They got them a hunder court proud with you. So when they get that, you know, I tell all the time, I said, you got a quarter million dollars and calls him the driveway I drive God, damn Helka, you know what I'm saying, Like I don't you know. But but when she drove that goddamn humble, she drove that motherfucker pride, and she drying and got
damn rage, you know. So so for me and there's a there's a there's a business element to marriage, and some marriages are just pure business.
And that's fine.
I chose to marriage because I understood my I understood my slipperses and false, and we kind of balance each other false.
Well you know what I'm saying.
We used to both be bad about time and being like fuck that I be on time now, And she just said, wow, me, you know what I mean. We we've had to conceive certain stuff and I understand, but but I want you and you should love the person you married, but you don't have to. I seen successful marriages happen without love, but they created stay with human beings that went on to be loving people. But everybody
ain't got to be. I just know for me, if I wouldn't have marriage, that I probably wouldn't have mad that marriage. Really, you know, I would never do that again. Certain So they used to getting because they're like getting getting free from jail and say, I want to go back for the same charge.
That ain't speaking to get married.
You to me, you need fundamentally, but what your marriage is need to be what you consider I got an uncle Vin and then offer league. They both man as a motherfucker marriage. I love them both to death. They happy, you know what I'm saying. They happy, So be happy. I know a nigga with four wives all his kids went to school on scholarship. I had to pay for my kids cases. So ship, that nigga might have a.
Better plan than me.
But I bet they had a group school them. A little motherfucker that kid were fucking earlier day. But he a mustlem, you know what I mean. So whatever, whatever, your marriage is, just tailor fitted with you and your partner or partners, you know what I mean. But but, but but but don't don't let society tell you you know what it is or what it's about to be,
because it's some lifetime ship. Though, if you're gonna be in there for life, you're gonna have some uncomfortable moments too, you know what I mean, in no sense of walking around uncomfortable, testing yourself up, dying a few years earlier. This motherfucker on fuck somebody else spending money on him. Anyway, what it is, will we ever get.
Trigger wanted two man, that's up to the white folks.
I would love to do it, but yeah, I got I would love to do it for the money it takes to do it right. I was.
I was. That was one of the times I was. I was.
I was driving myself, you know, exhausted and behadrate because I was working so hard to prove it. You know, I've done, I've done everything. I wanted to be on TV as a kid, you know what I mean. That's why I like watching TV A ship like that. I didn't want to do typical TV, and I don't you know now I'm wrong and mature in my thought, but
I always wanted to do something radically different. I used to watch a show called Real People Vironality who now owns the weather too, who was trying to everybody y'all hear about Vironality. There's a billionaire I started watching by he had always had his skin a little bla.
You know, Real People.
You watch it and they would go find these strange and wonderful people throughout the United States, and you just got a chance to see.
Because again, I grew up in an all black world. We understand that most.
People don't understand it, so other people was was it was literally alien At me, it was amazing. It was it was cool learning about other people. So, you know, for me, that's what trigger on it. It gave me an opportunity to be this wandering figure just figuring stuff out.
And I really did that ship. You really like that bench four hours? So I did ship.
Like we have a problem with with people not learning, so I try to use panography to learn to help people to learn. How you trade, how you do that. I show him a buck flick and how to wire a lamp. Everybody naked, but like I paid more attention
that they never trade over. We we did something where we we we did something where we I started my own country, New Africa, and ran with an election against against some other people and then they voted for me because popularity oftentimes wins over over capability and the red coke in.
The yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah. So with that I changed the election.
Why you change the election not for me to me and for me to lose because the woman, the black woman, was a better leader because I had.
To go on too.
I'm giving that to doing drugs onto the flame. I don't want to lead, it's I want I'm curious. People make me curious, So I want to do another trigger warning. I just can't do it at the budget. So if they give me the budget we need. I would love to so that budget up for that.
I wanted to.
Fox and Netflix were part of that happening, so shotx so shouts out to FX, thank you all to shouts out to Netflix.
I love to figure out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. Finally I want to ask you, a lot of people look to you for guidance. You're leader, you respected right, four's coming. People are kind of a lot of people are kind of confused about what to do politically, but they're gonna look to you for answers.
They looked at you.
A lot of people fucked with Bernie because you fucked with Bernie. A lot of people's listen to Killer. So what you gotta say to the people have to say is hyper hyper hyper local. Who is your prosecutor? Who are the judges you're gonna be voting for? And if you don't know, you.
Should google your prosecutors and judges. You should say that. You should say to yourself, how has this happened? Since how our mayor has done a fine job in afford of my house. He's doing a great job. I would hate for other things that were not the mission to take precedent over that when it's time to vote again because it's still black people living in this neighborhood. And when I go to other cities a black people in certain neighborhoods usual to be black.
So that's one reason I feel like I'm run with this mayor because he's actually brought the things home he said he was bringing home. So I don't even up to the president because I'm too days thinking about my mayor. This governor, who a lot of people didn't like or did not want me to like, has engaged me as a as a taxpayer and as a as a as a person in the community that's affected by prisons.
Trump I took it well, I ain't gonna do this.
I'm only talking about my mother, who didn't you know, who didn't support you know, Trump's you know, push for it to recount or whatever he was pitching for it. But our governor stood on the side of what to me was principals at that time. And that's what makes me. I don't have to grieve, you don't have to reality policies. I'll give you a grand disagreement. There's a gang enhancement bill that came across. It enhances if you are caught recruiting kids and the gangs and things of that nature.
Right, And I pitched my case for myself. I have to talk to you.
He gave me audience with the lawyers, gave me audience with staff. I said, well, this is how I see it. If you look, we had a thirteen year old girl that is recruited in the prostitution by an eighteen year old girl. You look at both of those girls, it's victims because both eighteen year old girl at one time was unless it used, abused, she was trained, right, girl, I said, I need you to look at gangs in
the same way. If you're a seventeen eighteen year old young man, you're recruiting a thirteen year old you've never been a leader, You've never been.
Considered the leader. It's the only thing that's giving you a sense of leader of the community of brotherhood.
Then I think you should look at that the same way you be looking at eighteen year old girl.
Then and I lost that case. I pitched it.
He gave me audience. But when it came time to sign, still sign right, double back around, Like I said. A year later, he knows all right, Mike told me in these conversations. If our boys have traded earlier, if I then our girls going to college, but our boys need something to do. He kept me in mind for that. It's just politics, you know what I'm saying. It's just politics. It's just like every nigga I have about don't film out of their life.
Oh man, lord, no, some of the niggas. I hate it. So what you independent? What I am? I'm a nigga.
I'm a black man, but I don't belong to no party. What I'm saying is black people be black.
I'm a black.
If you're a Republican, I'm a black Republican be that because they always, you know, they tell us things like, you know, you shouldn't put African American on anything that that type ship. And I'm like, yeah, but all my Greek friends said, I'm Greek. That doesn't mean they're not American culturally. They understand I'm Greek. Am I a Russian free you know what I'm saying. I'm Russian?
Like they don't. They don't want. You can't run from who you are, nib We can't run from who y'all. He's black? Were black first that you are?
But paying attention to the policies and benefit.
Our old permanent friends and allies and politics. That's just what it is. Not.
That's not saying about no permanent allis not saying you still can't be my friend.
But we're not. We didn't be on that the thing that we read on though we're pushing forward, you know what I mean.
That's how she is that we agreed to trade schools and do this, and you're about to put forty something million or put forty million in the trade schools that ended up on trade and and then some of us saw his way to Atlanta. Then I can't get to work with what I got. One thing, you know, my mama told me about it, about a lot of shit, But the ship I got a yes home, I ran
it all the way up. So I would suggest black people looking at now now might have then been on here and you could say, well, man, fuck that fat then know what he's talking about. Man, it's all that old shed you know what's up. But I'm gonna give you this. I got sent Magic Johnson about three four times the other day. I'm like, man, why everybody keeps saying me Magic?
Like you know, just musta said some significant shouts out to Freddy Oath. Freddy O said, they asked Magic Johnson.
He was in the process of doing the press conference about buying Atlanta Life Insurance Company.
Y'all should google Alonso Herrid Atlanta.
Like, yeah, yet black man own barbershops that hired employed all black people, a couple of them, service to all white men.
He hears business.
Insurance all this kind of shit you talked about, He says, Man, black people can't even get insurance. He starts to get insurance policies for them. I will assume and then supplement builds the largest black insurance company in the world right here in Atlanta. Magic Johnson, of course is again He's the person I love, Michael Jordan, Dominique Wieling, you know what I mean. But Magic was the person that comes and said, I can take my entertainment and I can
leverage the shitna being a business person. So he's bid for the last twenty seven old timiny s eight years of my life. Then, so when I looked up to Magic, said yo, they said, how'd you find out? He said, Killing Mike. He said, we were watching something and kill the Mike and Killer Mike started talking about this man
and this company, and we had no research. So I'm gonna just say, if a billionaires fucking around listening to me, if you somewhere in the barbershop arguing over if you like my album or not, or if you're a mother with some son, or if you a dad that want to give something, maybe you should just check it out. Because I'm not gonna ask you for no money at the end of the speech, I'm not gonna charge you to come and get in. I'm gonna do the same thing this man, this woman. Do just give you some
free game in a hug. Yeah, and we should have been so. If you were in Georgia, because I'm staying high per Low. If you in Georgia you voted for war Knock, you voted for also, I would start to stay there statewide, or if whoever you voted for in terms of the board of education your respective city of county, I would start pressing for funds to be put in high school to bring trades back. Harbor High School was a trade and Murphy what was Murphy High School? I
forgot its crim now Lazo crem now Frederick Douglas. All these schools a child should be able to come in and say, well, if I'm not Magnet program and I'm not Arts talent center and music talent center, I should be able to do trade skills and focus of course, because for the next fifteen years, you're gonna be able to put out money Maker. You're gonna be able to put out Little Yatti went to a school in the suburbs.
I love Yadi.
His father is a product of the arts program that I'm a product of in Frederick Dunness before Yatti became Gotti and blew up right, they're the only other kid, and it was a kid who was like, in terms of who made money big first, there's a kid who's in college and he's probably graduated, but he had taken a wealthing course in high school. So he was already making seventy grand a year when they were like twenty
twenty one years old, you know what I mean. So think about that, everybody came, we gotta y'ally's falling his you know, has has shown him for for years what to do with the camera, what to do. Y'alli has been in an environment where he understood how to figure out how to make himself most exactly amazing piano, but most people not not privy to be like me at nine years old, my mom said, you want to be rapped, Okay, we're gonna wrap.
You know.
He had most of you all seeing other people say well, I can do it too. Fuck that, I can do it too. I can do it too. Of the welds, the carpets, electricians, because you can fuck around and do that too, and you'd be making a hundred and twenty thousands. Like you trying to figure out really what you want to do with your life, you might just said, what fuck, I want to make a hundred twenty thousand once football a sudden, you know, So I think that I think
that ultimately, that's what I want to just tell people. Man, if your magic, listen to me, you know, and just castling, and Lord knows, I hope I can do some bitifaliant I would, I would just like to say, you know, just listen to me, black folks, I don't want nothing from you.

I don't want anything out from you, but you to be your best, because my daughter's got
