Around a little bit, but this is one of my favorite times when I've seen you. This is when you left cash Money right in facts, when you left cash Money and you just walking through chop A City and you promoting Chopping City and you I don't feel like, in my opinion, this is my opinion, you wasn't dissing cash Money, but you were saying, Yo, I'm gonna put together my four, my four, and you say he's another hot boys. He's not the hot boys. And I've seen you in the hood. I felt that shit so much

Tragedy was my bird man right right right right right.

And when I seen you going on your own, oh my god, that sh that shit touched me in a way because I was just like, damn, a lot of us don't understand that we're from the hood and we believe in the person that's putting us on right big fact.

And first and foremost, I just want to say, man, like you know, slim man, they you know, they saved my life with this music thing.

You know what I'm saying, like speaking, you know that's not big like you know it's deepen in rap.

You know what I'm saying with me?

You know, baby and slimming and you know cash money change my life, you know, saved my life. And you know, at the end of the day, you know, we we went through what we went through, and you know, I was young, you know, wow, you know, reckless, you know what I'm saying.

I made some mistakes. You know, they made some mistakes, you know.

And as we got older, you know, and as we grew, you know, we was able to have a conversation about it and you know, really understand both sides, you know, perspective.

Of it, you know what I mean.

But you when I left, you know, they know me like I'm I'm gonna say what's on my mind? Yeah, not because you're walking through what the you know, it's crazy said the reason I was able to come back, you know, to the hood like that, and the hood was able to embrace me nothing.

You're off on.

Yeah, yeah, all of us from uptown, you know, from the three to the third seen like all of us from the hood. But you know when when when when we made it and when we got the you know, the thirty million dollar tier and you know when we was on MTV and BT and you knows and everywhere everywhere. Yeah, expects like I never forgot where I came from, you know what I mean, The same dude I was.

You know when I had one thousand dollars. You know what I'm saying.

It was the same dude I was when I got my first million dollars, you know what I mean. So you know when when when I walked away you know, from the from the dollar sign, you know what I mean, with with with pretty much nothing, you know what I mean.

He's the same person, now, let me ask you because his his his one of the parts of the story. When I'm looking and I always start no limit and cash money was like bloods and crips.

Right, I'm from New York.

So you gotta, you gotta, you gotta actually let me get away with it. You gotta let me get up because I'm outside of looking in facts. But when you research you you say, damn begg and soldiers Slim was damn their best friend.

Nah big facts. So but but Soldier Slim represented no limits, right.

So I'm looking at him like because I knew this, but as I'm researching it now, I'm.

Saying, holy ship, this was actually what we were affiliate to. Bloods and Crimpton Facts.

You know, Slim was originally supposed to be on Cash Money for you because you know it's a group U n l V. You know who signed to cash Money, you know, like like like previously the dudes that I came up under, you know what I mean.

And you know he was featured, you know, on the U n l V album, and you know, Slim was man.

Slim was a cold blooded gangster like for real, Like Slim was just was, you know, different, like you know your Magnolia. Yeah, I mean, you're not Slim Magnolia to the Bond, you know what I mean. Slim Slim from the Magnoia projects, you know what I mean. You know he started, you know, on the Parkway with KLC. You know what I mean, with the producers, the producers non facts and yeah, man, Slim Slim. But but Slim had one foot in and one foot out, you know what I mean. So you know, I don't think.

Yeah, I don't think you ever talked about this. Yeah, no, no, no, man.

But back then, like I said, you know, we were just young niggas, you know what I'm saying. We was wild, and I don't even think we had realized you know how much you know, rap and music, you know, could change our lives. Like we just was doing it for the love of the music at the time, you know what I mean, and just doing it for the city, you know, representing you know where we came from, representing our hoods, representing our wars and things of that nature.

Just Slim also had his ties to see murder no big yeah, yeah not facts that and that came from when he went to No Limit facts.

Okay, so how was you murders relationship because I mean I'm outside of looking at.

Me and me and me and murder relationship came through Slim, you know, like like you know, you know me and because as don want to know this, yeah, I'm sorry, Yeah, no, not facts men. Murder relationship, you know, yeah, pretty much came through Slim. You know what I'm saying.

You know, after after Slimmer was murdered, you know what I mean, And and and I understood and respect that, you know, the relationship that that that Slim and Sea had and then and c ended up falling on his murder charge. And you know he reached out to me, you know, to get on the record all your unheard of me. You know what I mean was that when you was in jail to or no, I was out, I was out, you know, murder was in. You know what I'm saying. He reached out to me, you know,

And I just kept looking and I was just like, damn. I just kept telling my son, my son.

Is right there, he's my son, and yeah, right there, and I just kept telling him. I was like, yo, man, I kind of don't admire any other rappers, but I.

My you come on, bro, don't do me the Yeah, you.

Know that's the That's the reason why bird Man is telling you, lawyer, because he I told bird Man, I said, yo, man, when when y'all was at the outs, I never had an opinion.

Right right right right right right right, yes to make it right, not big facts, and Slim. I told him to Slim and he knew like back then, like you know, I was like, you know, just a young you know, rebellious you know child, right, you know what I'm saying. That's why he never answered me or never you know, responded, you know what I mean, because I'm talking about you know, when my mama house was a stash house. You know what I mean, you know back in the eighties, you

Just I guess he just looked at it like, man, that's my just young, wild, reckless, rebellious child.

You know what I'm saying.

And I ain't even much gonna you heard that much Just let him you know what I'm saying, And I ain't.

Even gonna answer. You heard me, you know what I mean?

Let me ask you that's just as a person like I I just told you Trash put me on Trash just like my bird man, right, And it was a certain point where where Trash did something where I was just like, man.

I can't I can't forgive this. And I made it. I made a dis record.

He made it this record, right, I regret it one maybe this is me. Yeah, I'm not saying the usually regret it. But what was the breaking point where you felt like damn? Was it when you was in jail or was it when you came home? What far as what like as far as like damn, man, let me let me say something, Let me get this off my chest. Like how we speaking earlier?

You mean like just before he Yeah, that was weird.

Cloud because I said that in the documentary.

Because I left Cashman. It was two thousand and two, two thousand and three, you know what I mean. So I ain't going to jail to you know, two thousand eleven, you know what I mean. But I think I think the I think I think our first time really you know, just just is it is when his little sister Tamarra died in a call wreck in a carrect.

You know what I'm saying, God blessed tomorrow.

Man.

You know what I mean, like, may she rest in peace, you know what I'm saying. But I think she died in a car wrect in like two thousand and seven, you know what I mean. And you know, me and Mora was like the same age, you know what I mean, like reached out to him and me and Myra grew up together. You know, that was like a sister to me, Like that was my sister, you know what I mean. And you know, just as much as I knew it

And I called in Live Man and Wild Wayne plug, you know, both us in on the air together, you know what I mean. And I just let him know you know that that you know, I love him, you know what, I was sorry for his loss, you know, blah blah blah blah blah. You know, this, this, that and the other.

And then that's you know, when we started, you know, just just you know, mending you know the relationship and and and just you know, just really just forgiving each other for everything that it happened, you know what I'm saying.

But yeah, it was. It was that.

The first time that I remember is yeah, when Somemoy died in a car crash.

Let me just tell you something, And I'm gonna tell you something that no one wants to tell you.

Roph Wrilers hmmm, Rockefeller, uh uh, I don't. I don't even remember any other crews but with I don't even know if I'm a part of this crew.

But the fact when cash Money got back together, that was the best thing we've ever seen hip hop.

Yeah, you gotta remember, we seen when y'all was at the top, no big face, big face, and then we've seen y'all, y'all lose. I mean y'all, y'all, y'all do it. Yeah, y'all, y'all go down.

And then we had the Turk thing and and Turk said that was wearing fake watches.

I didn't know what did you saw that? Because yeah, I say that, man, we ain't even anymore. Yeah, let me just tell you something.

I'm gonna just say something as an outside of looking at the inside of looking.

At when y'all got this ship together.

We all all industry motherfuckers is looking like damn we wish we could be y'all. Oh, yes, come on, you don't think as much that you don't think rocket fellow on this bird here, let's go.

That you might not understand what you're doing. The most historical shit that toll that y'all doing right now? Yeah, what are y'all living in right now? After all these years later? Nah?

Man, I ain't even gonna lie. Historical shit? Yeah nah, it really, I mean, it's it's humbling, you know what I mean to me? Right? You know what I mean.

But it's just really because for real, for real, when I got that fourteen year sentence, bro, I thought it was over fourteen years, you know what I'm saying. Them people gave me fourteen years, one hundred and sixty eight months, you know what I mean. And you know when they when they gave me all that time, bro, I really thought it was old. Like I thought they closed the curtains on me, you know what I mean. Like, you know, it's hard to remain relevant and it's rap thing.

You know, for a month. Do you know who was the rappers that reached out to you? Yeah, Bullshi helped me down.

Man, walking all the way to the dough t I, you know what I mean, Like my man may know you know what I'm saying, bird Man, you know what I mean. But absolutely that's my brother. May know, may know like this ill man, we go all the way back, you know what I mean? But yeah, man, like like, but for real, for real, I couldn't see that for you know, I mean you know what I mean, Like, I really couldn't see that for man.

And it took you know, maybe like maybe like five, you know, six years into my sentence to the bitch.

And music in there, you know what I mean? No, nah, man, Like I mean recorded music. Man, see all these people recorded with them.

Man.

Them people pulled me up when I first got in there and told me, you know that if I get caught, if you know, rapping on the phone or doing anything. You know what I'm saying. It was with me on twenty three one, you know what I'm saying, Like you man, them people was on me out. I said, like they wasn't having it, you know what I mean. You know I didn't been caught, you know, with knives and cell

Yeah yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying, like like they ain't going for it, you know what I mean? So you know, but but but like I was saying, man, in the beginning, I was a little bitter, you know, I was. I was because I was I was to ask you, why was you better? Because I felt like I was over sentenced. Yeah okay, okay, yeah, I just

Even got Wesa got a year to be in New York. It was state, but it was a year of the day. So I'm like, Ship, I'm a rapper too, you want the red, let me get the repeal, man, you know what I mean, but crazy crazy to some man. They smacked me over the head. Man. You hear me with the with the home and the clown Jones. You know what I'm saying. Don't play that what you don't know what I'm saying.

No, I'm just being honest, right, what's wrong? I mean there might have been a time that that could be true though, Yeah, yeah it was. It was at one point.

It was a time where you you definitely had to pick a side, right, you know what I mean, especially in the city, right, You know what I mean, because it was a lot of street politics involved.

You know what I'm saying.

It was, you know, because you know they had an answer, Ragia. You know, super goons and super killers around them, and you know we had an answer, Ragia of super goons and super killers around us. They really know, and you know, and it was real street beef involved like you know where it was you know, bloodshed like you know, like doing the you know, the mid nineties and you know all that, so you know that she could have got

So I mean I mean at that time, because you not work with a no limit artist. I mean, now we wasn't I mean yeah, back back then in the beginning night, well and wasn't. Wasn't you know what I'm.

Up with us as you know, you know Drewn was a little older than you know what I'm saying all of us, you know what i mean, and you know.

He used to hear so many stories, witnessed, so many fans, you know, being around.

At one point when he said everyone left, everyone left cash money and then he said that he held it down, how did you feel when he said that?

So you know I was well established, you know, as a solo artist, you know what I mean. And then band we built the Hot Boys, and you know, that did

And yeah, man, yeah, I think, uh.

Damn, man, it's just going for just you know, just thinking back and just reliving all that.

Its just because that's the difference between you guys and every other label.

The Rabbit you know when when when when uh or before Rabbit got killed? You know, he ended up, you know, he wanted to invest in Wayne hisself and you know, put you know, Wayne out, you know what I'm saying, hisself. So he ended up, you know, taking Wayne from cash money. And then that's when you know, Baby and Slim decided to just rap the Z and just call me BG.

You know what I mean. So that's where the BG come from.

You know what I'm saying, because you know me and Wayne started as a group called the Beg's Baby Gangsters.

You know what I'm saying. And then when Rabbit and ended up getting killed, miss not Rabbit.

Now that's that's that's Wayne's stepdaddy. Okay, that's what Waynet always talking about the storms. You know what I'm saying, Rest in peace, Rabbit, Yeah, that's that's his that's his stepdad.

Daddy, man, you know what I mean, you know, just just talking about him, right. And I was always a fan of you know, New Orleans music and New Orleans hip hop.

But you know, I think it just was a of me just journaling for real, you know what I mean. And yeah, man, I was like, man, I'm gona write a song, man, And and I think I wrote the verse about my daddy, and and then I just kept writing.

Because Okay, because you said you was a fan of New Orleans music, but specific artist, because you were like you and Juvie to me, were more lyrical than most at.

The time in the region.

Yeah yeah, yeah, So where did you Who were you listening to that kind of inspired the.

New Orleans wise in general? Who was inspiring you lyrically?

Oh, man, like Tupac uh Spice one who Spice, ghetto boys usually k Pim Daddy, you know U n l v uh Ponners and crime like you know, I used to MC dick like I used to Ricky B.

Just yo, I can see that now.

So you know, there's a lot of Southern artists that have said, like Tricky said that he was into coolgie rap.

I believe you know what I forgot about that part. There's a couple of folks that have said that out here. You're correct, but you know, you know that's gangs the rap, that's the original big face yeah, coolid pegging, that's why rap. You know what I'm saying.

Like he was he was on He's yeah ship like we bagged in and yeah, now Baby used to make me listen to you know, coolgi rap and you know, just just different ship, you know what I mean? Because like I said, I was a kid man and I was, you know, just trying to find my voice, you know, find my sway, find my flow. So I just used to eat up you know, all type of different ship you know what I mean.

You remember doing the video with Prodigy. Absolutely that was all probably one of the biggest things for Queens, right.

Nah, that was one of the biggest things for me, Like coming from the South, you know what I mean, Like you know what I mean, Like that's my thief, right.

This is my thief. So you know, for them to even much reach out to a.

Nigga and.

That that really was kind of, you know, one of them you know, points in a nigga career where niggas feel like, damn they hear us up there like like like like that we really made it, like you know, like niggas fucking with us.

Okay, okay, love this, I love it, Like you know what I'm saying, you know, like y'all look down on us, you know what I'm saying, like you know what kind of you know what I'm saying, like kind of imprison in it, man.

You know what I mean.

I told the whole time you don't believe it, yeah, man, And it was like damn, bro, like you know I'm saying like.

It's factual history.

Yeah, who hold because now you're making what prategy like calls that she meant the world to a nigga.

You heard me, know what I'm saying, Like yeah, man, like like rest of the peat prateigy man saying like like big facts.

You know what I'm saying. But yeah, but you.

Didn't you didn't realize that you deserve that opportunity.

I mean yeah, yeah, I felt like you know that that that that I deserved it. But for real, for real, we was in a mind frame like man, when funk everybody.

You know what I'm saying. We don't even funk about nothing. You know what I'm saying. We're doing us. You know what I'm saying. And we just you know what I'm saying, like like now that's what we had, right, you know what I'm saying. We like we're gonna make these niggaspect us. You know, well, you know what I'm saying, like you not nigga beat me. You know I know what I'm saying. The nigga just you know, so nigga wasn't even trimming

You know what I'm saying, Niggas ain't seeing us niggas, you know what I'm saying, Like, but yeah, they feels don't feel.

Just the first is that the first time that you felt like New York was was embracing.

You gonna lie like like like like when you reached out, you know what I'm saying, like few years ago now, But that's the fact, like nigga, like you know what I'm saying, Like Nor reached out. You know what I'm saying, Nigga pro even reached out. You know, jay Z reached you know what I'm saying. Later, I'm honest. You just you just driving you you know what I'm saying, like

Just you know what I'm saying, like all were here now, you know what I'm saying, Like it's beautiful.

To hear what I'm saying, but it's also like not beautiful to hear that because we really embraced you in New York, like you you are artist in New York and you know it's crazy, you know, like okay, right, you know what I'm saying.

It's just creating related that I wish. You know what I mean.

But you know how you like New York the mecca. You know I'm saying to Hipbob, you know what I mean.

You keep it real, Keep it real. I mean.

Like you're about to say, yes, you know what about you feel about We've explained.

You know, I mean it was It's just something you know where there's no leming, you know, like like I'm just say Master P or Jermaine du Pre or bird Man.

You know what I'm saying. Ly j you know what I'm saying. Like you know you you got all these you know down south. You know what I'm saying. Like even everybody you know, you.

Know what I'm saying, like like and and but all you hear is you know Puffy and jay Z, you know what I'm saying.

And Shure like like you know what I'm saying.

Niggas don't give you know, niggas like P and bird Man and Jermaine Kree and lyz J. You know what I'm saying, they props and they didn't done just as much as or even.

More than all them niggas. You know what I'm saying. So you know, I be feeling like it be a bias there.

You know what I'm saying when it comes down to you know what I'm saying, Southern you know, legend, denry, entrepreneur type niggas versus East Coast or West Coast.

It's true. You know what I'm saying, niggas. You feel me. But it's cool though, Lene Trimman.

See Luke what he's been saying, you want to celebrate the forty years of Southern hip hop?

Yea yeah yeah, yea yeah yah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.

H Luke been saying, you want to celebrate forty years of Southern hip hop?

And I say, and I'm going to represent for the whole East Coast for this moment. Maybe I can never represent for East Coast ever in a moment like this ever. Again, we loved Southern hip hop, We appreciated Southern hip hop.

It's that we couldn't put it on the forefront at that time. We just didn't. Yeah, So how y'all. Uh what is that called? Uh comprehend how you comprehended? It was wrong? It's not it's not that's not wrong, man, it's not wrong at all. No, it's not wrong. I was working it. I was a DJ active at the time. I'm going to New York to get records. I was seeing that, I was interacting with people. No, I'm just I'm telling you, okay, bout the way. It's not you. It was the was built to New York, New York

The radio, the hip hop radio was centralized New York. Then you had Atlanta and l A. New York still control most of it. In l A, it was there was like competing the.

South was even even even even with even with media. You know, it was the sore double everything go to New York. He voted for Vanessa. So who you think they hired everybody immediately because you know what I mean, Like, that's was embracing.

Yeah, facts fact And by the way, neither of y'all are incorrect. You know what makes y'all incorrect was y'are blaming the actual people. No, we're not blaming the infrastructure.

That's what I'm that's that's what you the infrastructure, it was all New York Center from that angle, and even what that was the first source of when when when I three, like, come on, like, that's where we're going.

You've been drinking up.

What you're right though, you hear them saying like like and and niggas was doing niggas been doing numbers. You know, niggas been you know what I'm saying, like like and it's like cad damn. I can't for the whole East Coast, but what I can speak for that love that loved it. And let me just tell you something. Cash money came and fucked with me. They came and see me. The Wayne came and fuck with me. G came and fucked me. Juvenile came and fucked with me. Uh, every David Banner came and.

Crooked letters letters came and fuck with me. So so I want to tell y'all I love y'all of the niggas.

So let me keep, let me give myself for you hours, let me let me you like like every so so so so I respect when y'all say, maybe East Coast nigga ain't fun with you, but can y'all.

You're stood still, and you're the only one I've ever seen say anything about a record label and they forgive them in the most respectful, best way ever. By the way, I don't think they will ever be another one you. But it's it's it's it's real. It's honesty. And do you understand how real that shit.

Is or you don't? I mean now, thats sure kind of like I'm taking it in right now, you know what I mean? But yeah, I get it. I get it. I get it.
