I woke up I'm my only NE I
[ __ ] yeah we ain't got money like that
man we ain't got the money for stand I
know we had that we got a stand you on
the stand I'm good holding mine but
let's put his on the stand we budget over
over
how realistic is that day th% realistic
th% well you know you know things change
well I mean even as far as which
obviously nobody knows but the name of
the album you Chang that you know um how
many times would you
say this project has changed I say like
one time cuz at first a never really
changed once I found the way I I loved
know what I'm saying like first I was
just trying to see which way I was going
to go like how I was going to do the
album you know I'm saying like I never
was like solidified like right had a
solid like the album going to be this
right and it really didn't change uhuh I
just kind of added to it versus like
remember at first I was telling you I'm
going to drop a Dominique album right
now I'm going to drop a Wham album and a
Dominque album okay and is that a deluxe
or a completely different project
completely different project okay and is
that a that's at a later date or you
thinking that's at a later date U
hopefully like February okay and if you
you had to describe the differences
between Wham and Dominique projects I
think Wham but the crazy thing I still
put some of the songs that I was going
to use for Dominique on Wham I know like
my fan base like really be wan to hear
them certain songs but I feel like Wham
is more like me on some young niggaas
[ __ ] know what I'm saying bad cars right
girls jewelry money you know like the
the turn Life Style then Dominique is
more like the serious me okay more
personal more personal would you say you
gave that side much N I really don't
give that side but like that's a part of
like the new Journey I'm on like I hate
the word vulnerable but like I'mma be
more open to my like my fans and like my
audience and [ __ ] like that what do you
think is a reason why you haven't been
cuz I don't really care for like people
to be in my life for real like my
personal life but I'm kind of like
understanding that this what my life
then came to right you know what I'm
saying right do you think that's the
thing of you not giving a about outside
opinions or you think even if that's
just like kind of the person that you
was like it's just the kind of person
that I am you know what I'm saying and
I'm like making myself become a person
while become I'm making myself more open
you know what I'm saying that ain't me
at all but I understand it you know what
I'm saying cuz like you know like I
don't I don't care for comments on the
internet I don't care for what people
say on the internet nothing I care for
nothing on the internet if I'm dealing
with somebody personally and they could
break it down to me and I had somebody
who like personally break it down to me
on a like on a fan level versus like a
friend level like we don't really be
knowing nothing about you you know what
I'm saying then once they kind of like
showed me that they don't really be like
damn I ain't even never get it like that
cuz if I drop a song or if I do
something I know what it took for me to
get there I know what I went through to
get there but from a fans perspective
they don't know nothing they just see it
and hear it right I mean on top of that
you don't speak on anything right so I
think out of the last few years of all
the if you you know took a list of all
the events or just things that have
happened involving you like and you
speak on zero of them it it it can
really draw a narrative about you
regardless if you care or not but that
can sometimes persuade the Persona or
the image and likeness of who you are
you solid that [ __ ] last forever so it's
like okay might be a time where they
this or and like but eventually like I
feel like if they supposed to know me
they'll know like from girls to rapping
to my kids to me being in the streets to
whatever it is like I don't really feel
like I
should speak on some [ __ ] cuz it's like
if you know you know or have to explain
it you know what I'm saying yeah you
ever think about your fan base that
isn't from the streets or don't have a
core to understand what being a real
[ __ ] is or being solid or even like
just like really just like white kids or
like they got to be white but just like
a selection which is it I'm sure a huge
part of your fan base that just doesn't
understand or come from or have the
mindset from the background that you
have to understand that that was a part
of me like getting where I am today to
understand it you know what I'm saying
cuz for a long time I always think
people got it like how I get it right
you know what I'm saying I even it even
got down to like one of my close
Partners just not even just say about
music just about any he like bro when
you be telling me [ __ ] like I hear you I
understand but I don't get it how you
get it and just that little bit like did
a lot of me I'm like damn I ain't even
never really think of it like that cuz
I'm thinking like [ __ ] but if I can get
it this quick and I can understand like
why you can't do it but then it had to
get like deeper into like damn everybody
ain't the same like everybody ain't
going to get it how I get it I think it
has something to do with the way we wire
you know like regardless of where you
from you just may be wired a little bit
differently definitely you know and you
could be from the same place cuz even my
P who told me this like we grew up
together like we did everything together
you know what I'm saying but it's still
like on a a certain level of like what
your brain might be on or what your mind
might be on or like how God why you you
ever think about or hear about this
saying of like you know you kind of are
not you kind of you're a product of your
environment and you are the person that
you were like the things that you saw
growing up in definitely I believe that
uh a billion perc but I'm so much not
into what other people got going on I
ain't even never think that far like
damn damn they ain't even the same
product of the same environment that I
come from right you know what I'm saying
or they never even seen this [ __ ] I seen
or been through the [ __ ] I seen I was
kind of saying it more so in a way like
cuz you didn't grow up rich you know you
didn't grow up around you know rappers
or million doll like um billionaires or
whatever so like but you still manage to
grasp the concept and mindset of
hustling and I mean past like you know
Street [ __ ] but really make it to a
business man and understand the concept
of business right you know um but
looking back on where you come from like
that's not it's not like casual it's not
like a thing so that's why I mean when I
like do you think maybe you just like
something switched on you or you just
you think you it was always in you or
like do you think you some you had some
kind of motivation from somebody older
or it's always been in me first of all
like you know I come from a family of
hustlers you know what I'm saying so
like even like young I always my mom
always talk to a dope boy in the hood or
you know what I'm saying somebody with
something going on so like not knowing
but knowing ever since I was little
that's all I ever seen you know what I'm
saying and then that's what I inspired
to be like I wanted to be a hustler I
wanted to be the ones who got the money
who got the cars who got this got that
I'm come from a neighborhood where
that's prominent at right you know what
I'm saying so like that's what I seen
growing up and just because that's what
I seen doesn't mean that that kind of
formed me and go back to like what you
was saying like how you wir because I
know people who seen the exact same
things I seen and went through the same
things and live the same way but they
still don't got the mindset I got right
so it's like a I say half and half it's
like half of like what you been through
what you seen and then the other half is
like just how you are because me and my
sisters we live in the same house and
both of them graduated high school and I
did right you know what I'm saying so it
Ain it can't even really be like we Ain
had a right upbring
my household wasn't right cuz my sister
graduated you know what I'm saying this
just like kind of like the life I chose
you know what I'm saying to not graduate
to be in theet and we stayed in the same
house in the same neighborhood at the
same time at the same time you know what
I'm saying we all like a year or two
apart right so I know for a fact I can't
blame it on like my mama you know what
I'm saying cuz she did her part for sure
cuz I see it in my sisters right exactly
do you think do you think it was
something that happened in your last
prison um you know sit down that maybe
like when you were in there you were
like man I something got to change or or
did you just get out and like was like
okay everybody rapping I'm just try this
[ __ ] I only went to prison one time and
the time I was in prison I I really had to
to
like shape and form my life you know
what I'm saying cuz ain't like I was a
regular young [ __ ] in prison either
young just bad calling my folks I
already was the man at the house right
so when I I went to prison from doing
what I wanted to do driving the cars I
wanted to drive I had two three Kos
right you know what I'm saying six
figures like so it was a whole different
you how old was you 18 17 right so you
was young I mean you I mean you super
young them there living I'm not say
living an exact same life now but a a
different variant different variant
that's why I be telling people like to I
can go in a gas station by myself or I
can go in a mall by myself or I can get
on a regular flight by myself because
it's like in my head this is stuff that
I had to be doing if I wasn't a rapper
and then I already feel like I already
was thinking in my head like once I get
old I'm going to be rich you know what
I'm saying right to be how big you are
how prominent you are you still move as
if like you are just like because
believe it or not I never once really
put in my head that I'm that yeah like
and I'm little baby and I'm like this
big rapper and it's I just go with it
like I don't really never like that's
what I'm that's at the stage I'm in now
like trying to tap into it but I never
really wanted to tap into it because I
ain't never want to lose myself right
and what you haven't which isn't easy
it's not easy to do bro because this
life can really trick you and make you
think or just gas up someone's head
especially come on money women diamonds
cars clothes it can make someone think
they like I seen I seen people go crazy
absolutely from from rapping to regular
Street dudes like I seen people who go
they first get their run of money like
even in the streets when they get their
first run of money and they act
completely different then when they lose
their run of money they damn near never
could get it back I didn't seen rap I
didn't I didn't have producers who I
turned into Millionaires and they got
more into it than me to this day now
they in somewhere sad and depressed damn
there like mentally then went crazy
behind this [ __ ] like that's never going
to be
right but is that because you don't care
enough or is it because you aren't as
emotionally attached W what makes that
what makes you it's not even that I
don't care enough cuz I care about it
it's that that I've seen what it'll do
to you so I won't let myself get into
that right and I learned all this kind
of stuff in prison cuz you got some
people who in jail they in jail with a
life sentence but you you'll think they
just got locked up two days ago right
that's just how they mind and how they
carry their self and what they do but
you got some guys who been locked up for
a year and they went completely crazy
they talking to they self they they they
really let the time make them you know
what I'm saying so it's like that's one
of them things where they say like only
this strong survive and I had to learn
how to survive and keep and stay sane in
a insane place right so now when I'm in
the world like that's what I be telling
Dan like like my friends and [ __ ] like
like you ain't scared to get on stages
like bro I went to prison with 2,000 men
who I don't know who all convicted or
something m if I can go in there and
survive get on the stage in front of
fans people who love you like that's a
cakewalk to me I mean when you put it
that way that is a whole lot easier at
at a young age a teenager you going you
don't know who your roommate is you you
got a life sent you got cuz I went to
like a level five prison like kind of
like the worst prisons you can go to so
by me being able to do that at 17 18
19 that formed me for the world like I
always say like I thank God for
everything he put me through like even
this like you know how you always call
like baby this on the Internet or you
got like a bad narrative on the internet
you got to I really appreciate the the
way everything has shifted for me and
what I'm saying that because like I
never would have took rap serious if
nobody went like baby fell off for baby
this cuz I never really took it
seriously you know what I'm saying like
I ain't I ain't I ain't put my all in
music yet you know what I'm saying right
that right there like I feel like God
wanted me to be like hey you need to
lock in and really take serious and kind
of like God working mysterious way that
was the way for me to like really get on
my [ __ ] but you don't think it was luck
never but I never I never took it
serious it just like it happened for me
right what I mean by take it serious I
never was a studio everyday type of guy
you know what I'm saying I I never was a
you know what I'm saying sit down with a
producer type of guy I never was a into
my videos I never edited a video with
the director I never was into that type
of stuff right you know what I'm saying
and I never knew about it first of all
and then I ain't have to do it for it to
work so I never really even thought
that's what I needed to do instead of
like even when it was working I supposed
to been like how do I build my CRA you
know what I'm saying like how do I go to
the next level and I ain't think that
far cuz I was just going to the next
level organically off the top of your
head if you had to say why you think it
worked so well if you just blurted
something out why would you what would
you say God I always tell people like
this God plan like you can't make
another me
okay what would the second thing be I
think I totally solely God okay now my
work ethic like my hustle like I'm
signing a QC they don't got to do
nothing for me I ain't never cough for a
bill pay ain't never cough whatever I
want done I get it done even if I had to
spend my own money from the get about in
the beginning in the in the beginning if
I had to spend my own money i' get my
money back right or it might don't even
take money I could I could I could get
it done for free just all my
relationships or like how a Hustle but
and I thought that even that I thought
our artist do that um my opinion is I
would say your authenticity I think that
you are so still to this day so
authentic that it was so easy to
differentiate you from everyone else
because seeing you and listening to you felt
felt
so real and and and relatable to the
people who also all around the world was
living in the same environment dealing
with the same things you know it wasn't
like it wasn't a gimmick it wasn't like
a a uh what they call uh uh label what
do they call them when you when a label
build up an artist they call him a yeah
industry plan like it was none of that
it was like 100% this guy is this is
real and this guy is he's from this and
I'm from this so I know he's from this
cuz you can't say this if you're not
from this you know and I think it kind
of just really stuck to a lot of people
and pushed you past everyone you know
that plus I mean you stay you've always
stayed out the way you've never been a
uh in some like TMZ like drama weird
[ __ ] ever still to this to this day you
know which is it's it's it's weird to
say but it's impressive because in this
industry it's like a whole bunch of
gimmicks and weird [ __ ] and like freaky
[ __ ] and like just [ __ ] just like
do other [ __ ] you know you kind of
always stay not only clear but away from
just like weird [ __ ] you know what I'm
saying and that's not hard though you
know I just do what I post to you know
what I'm saying everything go back to
like prison in a sense I'm saying it
like that like why you got to compare it
to prison but it's like that's how
happened for me cuz it's like you around
all type of weird [ __ ] but you got to
know how to mind your business do what
you got to do for you you know what I'm
saying I don't care what they doing what
they doing what they doing a got nothing
to do with you right you know what I'm
saying yeah so in a way learn that like
fast like you know what I'm saying so in
a way you D there and say like man
prison really really was not going to
say good for you great for me I I I I'll
tell everybody that you know what I'm
saying cuz I never was supposed to be in
prison like even to the prison when I
was at the type of charge I had and the
time I had I supposed to go to a level
five prison for whatever reason and
whatever happened I still went to a
level five but I ain't have to stay
there that long I stayed long enough to
know that's ain't where I want to be at
right but if cuz if I would have to like
a little a county camp or a small little
prison where I could pay my way and have
the young [ __ ] doing what I say and
all that I would have never even really
like understand it how I understand it
now and I feel like God I already be
having my whole life written out for me
so everything I go through I never
question it or that's why I don't even
try to diffuse a situation or speak on
situation I'm like I always just look
for like what God trying to tell me in
every situation right good or bad good
or bad especially bad you know what I'm
saying I want to I want to change I want
to jump into Harvard what was that
experience like and that's what I was
telling you too like before we had this
interview M and when I was telling you
I'm like [ __ ] I'm going be vulnerable
you know what I'm saying I'm like so I
want you to ask me like the [ __ ] you be
asking me when we not on camera okay you
know what I'm saying so like I cuz I
kind of want the world to know that type
of [ __ ] now you know what I'm saying all
right well then I mean let's I'm talking
about from like all the [ __ ] you I know
what you're talking about all right well
then let's let's come back from Harvard
and let's talk about fatherhood
um because I I know you very well and I
know how much time you spend with your
kids and I always call you know I'm
always calling you I'll see you and I
and I I kind of always update you on
[ __ ] that's bother me because I always
tell you [ __ ] bothers me more than it
bothers you about yourself but um could
you even like how do you feel
about narratives on either a your
parenting or on your children on the
internet I feel like the internet is
it's a crazy place and if it was up to
me I wouldn't like put my children on
the internet for real you know what I'm
saying but it is what it is know what
I'm saying but I do what I will say is
like I'm from a different CL so like
certain [ __ ] I don't even play about
right you know what I'm saying like it's
nobody going to make a comment that they
make on the internet around me never
right you know what I'm saying like so
it's like I can't really beat the
internet M so once I learned that it's
like certain [ __ ] like he yeah a lot of
[ __ ] bother me when I see certain [ __ ]
but it's to the point where I'm so non
void like I just like tune it out but at
the same time like I had them personal
talks with my kids though you know what
I'm saying like I explain certain [ __ ]
to my my sons you know what I'm saying
both of them you know what I'm saying
cuz I could be recording them all day
and putting them on the Internet like
they ain't really what it's for you know
what I'm saying like I ain't really if
it was up to me like I'll go without
having my children on the internet
period of course saying you know what
I'm saying the fact that you don't have
control over that does that bother you
it it don't really bother me is just
like what I got to deal with in a sense
you know what I'm saying like I don't
try to let nothing really bother me I
just like try to deal with it is it a
hard balance for you keeping your
kids safe in private because they're so
famous like n cuz I'm just Ry and cut
with them but that doesn't I mean other
people in the world I'm saying you know
like they in not public but they in
school and they saying that's that's the
stuff we talk about you know what I'm
saying like that's what I talk to my
sons about you know saying when y'all at
school how to car yourself when y'all
out when people say certain stuff or
when people do certain stuff you know
what I'm saying like I have those real
conversations like no no edit you know
I'm saying at this age yeah cuz he ain't
even like no at no this age Jason n he
down know everything I know and loyal
too you know what I'm saying they got
these phones they got the internet they
got the so it's like I can't even like
beat around the bush you a't even like
with my parents like Jason asking me the
wildest [ __ ] in the world lawyer asking
me the wildest [ __ ] in the world like
damn I got to tell them how it go you
know what I'm saying especially with
seeing me too because I don't really too
tough try to like hide nothing from them
right you know what I'm saying two
questions one first I'm going say do you
think you being how you are and if you
unapologetically are how you are do you
think that has any effect on them in
a negative way even if I feel like it
was in a negative way now it'll be for
the good later mhm cuz I still talk to
him about everything when I say
everything meaning like I explain to
them how I grew up in the hood I take
them to the hood I show them different
little children you know what I'm saying
I even show them stuff on the internet
like hey if you do this that's what they
going to say you know what I'm saying
that's how people like and I make and I
want them to understand
like the internet period you know what
I'm saying like it's a whole different
place where people will say [ __ ] that
they don't even mean just to get a
reaction or people are just like you
know hop behind the computer and just
say this or that you know what I'm
saying whether they feel is true whether
they feel is false it's like just the
whole word of everything and I ain't
grow up like that right you know what
I'm saying so I don't even think the
internet was a thing when I was growing
up right we a really take pictures we a
really so like it's different from like
how I grew up or like how my folks rais
me like I'm raising my children a whole
different way and on top of that I'm who
I am now we like celebrities you know we
got way more money we living in a whole
different lifestyle and even from Jason to
to
even though they like 3 4 years apart
but that was a dressed 3 4 years like I
had Jason when I was in prison m you
know what I'm saying I had lawyer when
I'm rich right you know what I'm saying
Jason being nine he's probably on the
internet every day if not sure every day
all day does he ever come to you with
things maybe negative things that may
have bothered him that you all the time
when when it happens I make him call his
brother on three-way and tell I'm like
tell tell your lawyer what you told me
you know what I'm saying like show him
you know what I'm saying like that's
what I be on you know what I'm saying
like that's what I mean like I talk to
him about everything I don't even hide
it I don't even but I know how to do it
in a way where it ain't like
overwhelming or make them feel way or
start questioning they s or it's like
too much peer pressure I know how to
like ease it in right and you know how
to talk to them obviously best those
just just Sons I know you once in a in a
song said that you want a daughter um
how do you is that you really feel that
way how yeah I definitely want a
daughter okay and so with that you know
is that something that you trying to do
in a recent pretty soon times N I ain't
really ready for it right now I told my
children like I think I'm going to have
kids when they get grown I'm like y'all
going to be able to help me with y'
little sisters okay but you know what
I'm saying cuz coach the way that my
kids are coming up now is not the way I
want I want my kids to be in the like
same household you know what I'm saying
like I want to be there with my kids
every day it's unfortunate you know it
is what it is I was young at a time
mom's young or whatever it may be how it
didn't work out but that ain't the way I
want it for me you know I'm saying I
don't want my kids living in separate
houses they got to be with their mom
they got to be with their dad they like
I really want wanted it to be together
you know what I'm saying whether
I super tough in the way that we live
and all that but as I getting older I
learned so now like I ain't too careless
on like making them say mistakes I ain't
going to say mist not mistak saying I'm
going say same moves right you know what
I'm saying right and and but I mean I'm
going say though because again like I
said you don't post nothing but bro you
really make it happen you you you you
know are taking your kids of school
seeing them every week damn near like
and you everywhere every week you know
but you still you come back just to get
them yeah that's like super important to
me you know what I'm saying I a had it
yeah that's something I learned about
that you that is what you put first
before anything you were always with
them and that's it's really great man
that [ __ ] is going but it's like you
won't even really see down internet cuz
I ain't doing it for the internet you
don't see nothing I do for real on the
internet not in real life not in real
life cuz it's I'm so censored on what I
put on the internet like I never put
real on there you know what I'm saying I
mean anything you put anything on it
which then that's what I was saying
about the narrative that can be drawn
out like let's just jump into like the
narrative that people think you are you
probably can't say that word but dumb
you know what I'm saying and that's slow
just say slow like people think I'm slow
yeah yeah people think you slow I kind
of like that narrative though because if
you think I'm slow then I I you going to
come to me like that so then you showing
me how to beat you yeah you know what
I'm saying cuz I'm going to keep playing
slow with you so then you ain't going to
tell a smart person the same thing
you'll tell a slower person or somebody
who you think slow right like I've been
a gr student my whole life yeah I
skipped a grade I could have skipped two
grades my mom didn't want me and my
sister in the same grade like I read all
the time you know what I'm saying like
that's but you ain't going to see me
post a book you know what I'm saying I
read books every day
like people who know me like my sister
she bought me 25 books for my birthday
you know what I'm saying I'm trying to
read them all in 3 months you know I'm
saying but I just never felt like that
was the I just ain't one of them people
who put the internet my whole life on
the internet number one cuz my whole
life was illegal at one point in time
the [ __ ] I'm doing and I always been on
a hit hard move silent Ro versus like
open to the internet or gr like some
people grow up on the internet you know
what I'm saying like I'm a little older
than them people who grew up on the
internet but even some people my age
like they really go outside they was on
the internet like even people the guys
they be telling me about movies and [ __ ]
I never seen these movies right cuz I
never was in the house I was one of
those kids when the sun rise I'm outside
and I don't come in the house until I'm
dead tired to go to sleep right I wake
up tomorrow take a bath and right out
the door I never sat in the like until I
just got grown I never sat in the house
for a whole 24 hours yeah that used to I
could just couldn't do it like I'm like
one of them real Street babies yeah I
mean it's also I think it's a certain
being born at a certain point in time
and and you just I mean I would assume
you had a was a pretty active
neighborhood pretty active neighborhood
and and didn't have much inside probably
and all the guys who my age group M when
we was young 15 16 they either went to
jail or they died you know what I'm
saying all of them to a point where
that's how I hang with Sid and Mohawk
and all them them the older guys right
none of them ain't my age y' ain't
posted to hang with them I posted to
hand with they little brothers right but
through C different circumstances they
little brothers in prison they little
brothers some of them ain't here some of
doing different stuff but that was my
age group and I knew younger that that
ain't where I wanted to go feel me God
like had something else for me like I
ain't get killed like you know what I'm
saying I one of the ones who got caught
you know what I'm saying so it's like I
had to go and hang with older people
right so I think that shap shaped and
for me a whole lot because I only ran
with the older guys when I was like 13 I
was hanging with a guy who like 17 [ __ ]
name rabbit like so I'm 13 spending
night at his house watching what he
doing while the other 13 probably at
home playing the game like I was in a
trap house somewhere right you know do
you think you'll ever
like allow cameras in like really show
more I I want to get to that level
because I'm trying to take my care and
and like over the past couple years I
had to go into this transition of like
like baby you're an artist m instead of
like I'm a street [ __ ] and I rap or
like like it's to the point where I'm at
now like a you ain't a street [ __ ] like
you're a whole rapper and like this is
the rapper lifestyle but have you
honestly 100% converted your brain to
that not 100 but like 70 but it's still
some some ethics and morals that's still
linger it's just cuz that's I just knew
that longer than I knew this right you
know what I'm saying but eventually it's
going to be that I've been out of the
streets longer than I was in the streets
so now so like I'm I'm going and making
that transition now because like now
it's like you know I'm still tied to the
streets I'm always going to be like
that's where I come from that's where my
people that like I ain't Rich enough to
take care everybody right you know what
I'm saying so it's like that's always
going to be a part of me but I just had
to put in my mindset that this other
part of me but at first it was like I
was I damn it was reluctant to accept
that right feel cuz I always thought
rappers and [ __ ] was corny as hell like
all of them you know what I'm saying
like like you're a rapper like because
it felt like a gimmick it always like
gimick you know what I'm saying M with
that being your mindset what made you
say I'mma try this everybody told me to
try yeah that was more of a thing so
even the first time when I first got out
of prison why did you look like a rapper
did you act like like why were people
telling you to try cuz like rappers our
rappers really just rap about like the
street life right then I was like a
young [ __ ] 15 16 17 really living like
that from the swag I always knew the
swag cuz I always home with the dope
boys they create the swag you know what
I'm saying they they make what's cool I
always knew what kind of cars to drive I
always knew the the girls to go at like
I already had the whole rapper lifestyle
I just didn't rap so I'm curious I
question I hop on here as I'm curious
and I kind of feel like I know what
you're going to say but what what would you
you
say what is something or some things
that you aren't good at [ __ ] opening up
to people and is that you saying public
are you saying women or are you saying
just in general just publicly even in
general you know what I'm saying like it
take a lot for me to open up and what
why why is that just cuz like the way
I'm used to living you know what I'm
saying like [ __ ] like a secret society
yeah you know what I'm saying right so
it's just to just to be open was just
always just a what you do and do you
think your your past life has made your
your trust in your current life
extremely like timid extremely extremely
extremely but I think it's for the good
though and do you think that makes you
have what we're talking about you saying
opening up does that does that bring
struggles and personal relationships in
a way yes and I mean like personal
relationships cuz I only could think of
a girl I w't be opening up to no [ __ ]
we talking about talk even my friends I
can open up to my friends cuz you know
like but can you can you fully though
like can you I to a certain extent I
could open up to him this much I can
open up to him this much it's like to a
certain extent because I still got that
street man tell like you can't show a
[ __ ] where you weak at that's where
they beat you at that's how I think and
how I live which is kind of crazy if
these are your friends yeah even friends
you know what I'm saying it's like and
it's like humans period whether we
friends or not or nothing it's like if
you show somebody your weaknesses that's
what they play on whether they your
friends or not whether they do it it's
like I don't even know if that's just a
part of human nature or what but like I
study that type [ __ ] and that's what I
see you know what I'm saying you know I
think about the love songs that you have
and all of them are like kind of like
good love songs or like they're like
like I'm a lover boy right but you but
you don't have any like oh you broke my
heart love songs like oh it's like even
if I get on the times when I have got my
heart broken it wasn't a break me down
it's like Build Me Up heartbreak it's
like I take all my bad and Scribe with
it so when do you feel when you feel
stuff if all the time you know what I'm
saying but I wear my fers on my sleeve
you know
but I thought wearing your feelings on
your sleeve mean you show
them I know you wearing your feelings in
your heart this he like wearing them on
my sleeve meaning like you can see them
n meaning like it's detached from my
body like it's on the outskirt my
feelings on my sleeve mean like I can
brush them off right almost so I mean
almost like you don't like you don't
feel nothing but I do though you know
what I'm saying just I got a crazy way
of showing it based on how I had to live
and that could me up in relationships
and [ __ ] but I'd rather be like that I
do got girls like d you don't open up
and like I'm supposed to know if
you but it's like [ __ ] that's what I got
to take cuz even like with the girls
[ __ ] I if I if I be vulnerable to you
and I open up to you is it's inevitable
like that's what you're going to use
against me just the hand rule of thumb
down there you know what I'm saying
whether she tried to whether she intent
to like that's what it's going to turn
into if I if you if I tell you I'm weak
at or Bo if I show you my
vulnerabilities that's what you going to
play it when it's time to play on them
yeah and do you think in your head
without even trying to think like I
don't know how long this going to last
well I already think like this got a
time limit on it so I can't tell you I
can't go be this open cuz I probably
yeah I'm I'm annoying you is you talk to
10 other [ __ ] right I can't be telling
you my business Ain't No Way in here I'm
going to open up to you right even if I
thought you was only talking to me like
you talk to your friends you know what
I'm saying you talk to you so that's why
it's like it always been like a yeah you
know I'm saying like a mafia with me you
know what I'm saying like you don't
speak on certain [ __ ] because the only
way people don't be able to speak on it
is if you don't speak on it so then who
do you talk to you have a therapist I
got a couple guys who I can open up to
you know what I'm saying and that's what
I was saying
like my homie in La Big my big homie in
La one of the older dudes you know what
I'm saying I never say his name but
everybody know him [ __ ] I could talk to
him about a lot of stuff cuz just cuz
he's not even in my world right but I
could talk to you about
K Rich cuz you in K Rich world you know
what I'm saying I only could talk to you
about something that you are never in
trne with or you don't know nothing
about or nothing I can open up to you
about that as far as if this is
something that I know you know about or
got a personal connection to you got a
personal connection to it's going to be
hard for me to open up to it cuz I don't
know how things could go right but if
you like a and what I feel about a
therapist is like I I feel like
therapist everyday people you know what
I'm saying before I sit down with a
therapist I got to ask them a question
question I'm saying how your life going
you know what I'm saying how your
relationship like what's your
relationship status how you on your kids
cuz it's everybody people you went to
school to be a therapist or you went to
like I don't really believe in that and
I know they always like the black man
don't believe in therapy but I do
believe in therapy I just got my own way
of therapy I'm not going to sit down and
talk to nobody well I got to pay but
[ __ ] man my grandma we might walk around
the house 10 times and talk about
different stuff you know what I'm saying
or me and D we might be in the car for 3
hours and talk about different stuff but
it be different stuff with different
people you know I'm saying I mean I
guess and the majority of things I keep
B up you know what I'm saying which
can't be healthy sure is not healthy but
that's just I guess the way it is know
what I'm saying right who you Convent to
in prison in jail sit by yourself you to your
your
roommate or what about them times you by
yourself like that's why I'm saying like
prison had formed me like God already
knew I was going to be in this position
that's why he sent me there to to learn
like to learn them Tech tactics and
learn certain traits cuz I I need them
in my today's life you can't just think
just because that's the the what you
were given that that's how it has to be
like how else would it be you can all
just like you say you're changing your
ways of being in the street to like you
know the longer that you're out the
longer that your brain starts to shift
mechanisms right you know or even like
maybe it's no way you can there's
nothing in me that want to be vulnerable
or just open up like they ain't they
ain't that you was trying to be far as
like let them in on my life right you
know like seeing more and [ __ ] but just
far as me just opening up to
somebody oh thanks I don't see it well
no I do every now and then I find a girl
who like cool ain't going to open all
the way up but I feel like I could talk
you know what I'm saying I could talk a
little bit more and sometimes that do
help me out but it's still always this
thing of I can't never tell too many
people too much cuz I am already open
meaning like open meaning like I'm a
celebrity like I'm already a public
figure but yes but you are like you're
not open you are a public figure as as
far as your likeness right but but as
far as your life and your you as a
person I don't think you're open which I
don't think is a bad thing I I think
that we all move a certain way I don't
think you owe anyone anything about who
you are as a person you know I think
that people love you and probably maybe
love you a lot more if they actually and
that's the part that's the part what
make me want to open up because I feel
like if I if you already love me for
this if I open up I feel like you'll
love me even more you know what I'm
saying so that's what's shifted me to be
on a open and up level you know what I'm
saying understanding that like if people
did understand me better it'll be all
gravy cuz like now even like a song me
the guys could be listening to a song or
not even the guys me and somebody else
could be listen to you me and you could
be listening to a song and you'll never
understand one part you can't say like
I'm not one of the guys for sure for
sure so just say like anybody if they
listening to a song they can hear me say
the song 10 times and don't get it then
I might around and break it down to him
they're like damn right you feel me like
oh that's what you saying so it's like
damn I can't get them too much and they
don't even understand where I'm going
with it right I got to like dumb it down
and bring my fans with me you know what
I'm saying like the [ __ ] I go through in
the last two three years nobody in the
world don't know right you know what I'm
saying I can't just rap about it and
expect them to
understand but I had to get to that
level you know what I'm saying no I
don't understand what you're saying but
I'm trying to um like like far as
like I'm just give you like a like a
prime example versus
like if I had been open and telling you
everything I do not everything but
majority of what I do for a year without
dropping music but I still was letting
you know when I drop the music you going
to be looking for everything I was
showing you right you know what I'm
saying everything I was telling you it's
like I BR you on a journey it's like I
can't go on a journey without my fans
and I ain't look at it like that at
first but you don't think that if you
did them both it gave more it would give
more insight right that's what I'm
saying yeah I'm saying like if if I let
more in on the journey when I do say
certain stuff and I do move a certain
ways like you already understand it that
was kind of that was what my next
question was actually going to be um
because you know it's interesting
because you it's it's not like you're
not emotionally intelligent it's not
like you don't know what you're thinking
or what you feeling you just feel that
you just you just don't trust anyone
with that information for sure so I mean
if that's the case then I mean I guess
you you probably your take on marriage
is probably like no huh because marriage
is a big jump that's like I mean that's
that's sharing finances that's sharing
emotions that's why I ain't sharing my
finan oh so you if you even thought
about marriage instantly is prup I don't
even even prenups like and young people
don't even be knowing like prenups don't
mean that it's no thing that you can
marry a woman and then she don't get
nothing it's ways for her to get
something regardless want I get married
I'll give a girl1 million ring 101
million wedding no
paperwork that's that's my offer so I
mean so we we not Mar I vow to death do
us part we married just no no paperwork
you know
and that could change when I get older
but I don't I don't really see that
because it's just a sheet of paper no
it's not just a sheet of paper something
that actually stands and if we signing
and all that now we got to go through
the worst of it and I'm not thinking of
the worst ever but I still got to think
of that type of stuff what about if you
God forbid go back to prison and then
you know you can't see her cuz you're
not I would give a damn yeah what if
you're in the hospital and you can't see
her I wouldn't give a damn man okay
thank God I'm blessed I got mom and
sisters right people people that care
for me and love me who going to be with
me with or without I don't want to put
that much into my spouse yeah you know
what I'm saying only because I didn't
seen the worst of yeah a lot of a lot of
stuff and I'm just not learning like I'm
traumatized you know so like I'm
traumatized for for marriage you know
what I'm saying and I didn't seen it go
good both of my grandparents both of my
grandparents married to their second
husband 50 years 40 years 50 years you
know what I'm saying both of them second
well okay all right I don't even know if
they was well I know for a fact my mama
mama was married to they daddy but by
the time I was born she had a whole new
husband okay and then my grandma on my
daddy side is not my granddaddy is not
my daddy real daddy MH but he the only
granddaddy I know by the time I was born
my grandma was already married right to
him for 50 years so I seen I've seen
people love love you know what I'm
saying like I've seen that's a different
time period though man but that's also I
was just about to say but that was like
a different time per extinct now that
kind of say different it's and it's
different for for various reasons you
know what I'm saying we got the internet
main main one terrible you know what I'm
saying that's the main reason why it's
different accessible accessibility too
much accessibility and we're Superstars
you know so it makes it Superstar you
got sensibility and you got people who
like you got this whole you got you got
like so much negativity and devilish
[ __ ] in the world like even back then my
uncle them they got eight families they
don't even know about each other right
now you can't have two girlfriends no
because everything is socially connected
everything socially connected it's easy
to get in contact with Y or make y see
something that he need don't want to see
or don't need to see or somebody was
trying to hide anything press up a
button it can get there and people want
you to see now you know people people
because people aren't even the people
close aren't exactly in our position so
they like that extra clicks or those
extra likes or this blog posting
something about them connecting towards
us because it's bringing them more
followers or whatever the case may be
definitely you know so really it ain't
even got to be on you it could be
someone completely totally different
that's why I'll be telling people man
it's so important to know who you having
a kid with man because bro you know that
[ __ ] they can you it's not just you controlling
that role you know yeah definitely not
that's why I be trying to get like the
young guys advice like for sure have
kids and and what's crazy is cuz I'm so
deep in life that I
really I need a lot of kids M you need a
lot of kids like building your family
like family is going to be a stink if
you don't keep having kids okay you get
what I'm saying yeah think about it like
if you have one kid and your sister have
one kid it's like when they get older if
they have one kid eventually our last
name going to be dead and they could
possibly not have kids a lot of them
don't I'm telling my sister that I'm
like hey I take care of y'all like I
need y'all to have three more kids a
peace they like hell no they only got
one kid but I'm like we need it for the
family like absolutely we need 80 of us
you know what I'm saying like this the
family this all we got but it's like so
I understand when people be like the
black man outside of the house and I
really see the effect that it has on us
you know what I'm saying your family is
getting smaller and smaller and smaller
Thanksgiving Christmas we used to be 100
deep we 20 deep like my grandma and got
everybody five eight nine 10 kids saying
that's in like that's like damn unheard
of you damn to frown upon if you got 10
kids now but actually that's what you
need you know what I'm saying we like
far as like it's so crazy when you say
it like that that's true cuz I'm deep
with everything and that's why I don't
be talking a lot too cuz like I I I feel
like I understand [ __ ] on a different
level than a lot of people yeah and me
trying to like dumb it down to I drive
myself crazy trying to explain it the
way I get it cuz I understand that a lot
of people never think the way I think
exactly what do you think about memes
memes of you some I be funny some I
really smack [ __ ] for you know what
I'm saying it's just it is what it is
you know you what do you think of the
the James Harden memes like what like I
don't play certain type games so even
when I see certain [ __ ] is is
like know I'm saying I just say it see
the comedy push up on me with it you
know what I'm saying see how that go you
know what I'm saying like I can't really
get into it like yeah what I'm what I'm
argue and say you feel me some days I
get on my [ __ ] I'm like I'm G start
coming in on [ __ ] [ __ ] just I'm just
start going but I don't really got too
much time to put into that not you you
know what I'm saying like even the whole
Mike Ruben thing I was just going to say
I was just about to say bro I don't play
with [ __ ] period right you know what
I'm saying like on no funny weird [ __ ]
you feel me I'm dapping kozman up M and
Mike happy to see me he run up on me
right I got 10 other pictures we down
there we start down there B I'm telling
his that mik I slam your ass on your
neck I break your NE this but we play
like that they white so they don't
really understand how I understand like
even when the picture came out before it
went viral I told like mik I can't have
pictures like that even though me you
playing but it's 100 people at the party
we in the middle of 100 people there's
nothing weird we could be doing in the
party right with all these people watch
the the right but I know how small
people brains is and then I already be
knowing how how much of people want to
say something bad to me bro I literally
when that picture came out I literally
made Mike Ruben go to his security
camera in his house go to the footage
and get the whole time but I just never
I ain't even G to post that [ __ ] on the
internet I'm just like that [ __ ] you
feel me like I ain't even trying to make
it into this and making it to that like
man just keep on going cuz that's kind
of like how I be doing with [ __ ] but
some [ __ ] like like all that type [ __ ]
like that really bother me you know what
I'm saying cuz like how you saying like
how I grew up like some [ __ ] just can't
be on your name you know what I'm saying
but it's like some [ __ ] is so dumb it's
like I won't even get into I can't even
stoop that level right to be onest I
mean also I think a lot of people don't
know you and Michael Ruben's
relationship like people know you I have
a relationship they won't never know
that you know what I'm saying like
people think why you care to talk about
it for a second y very close like baby
you run you run with Mike cuz
whether they'll think like oh baby Mike
Mike Mike Ruben a billionaire like I
don't give a what nobody got you know
what I'm saying whether he had a
billionaire whether he was a millionaire
whether I had more than him but he has
been a great influence a super great
influence and that's the part that
people wouldn't see and that that's the
part like that's the part people
wouldn't see and that's the part
like I probably wouldn't even be able to
bring people up on that speed and what I
mean by that is like just like you for
instance like man you got a great
relationship it ain't based on cuz like
you y the rapper or I'm Little Baby the
rapper it's like what we personally been
built you know what I'm saying and me
and Mike Ruben we had the best
conversations ever you know what I'm
saying like cuz he also like damn near
fascinated with the way I live and I'm
fascinated with the way he lives so we
like meet in the middle you know what
I'm saying like I'm trying to tell him
like all the black Mogul and I ain't
going to say all cuz Swiss beats he's
the one you know what I'm saying for
sure like he's one of the only one of
the you so like I look for people like
that I like like back when I was a kid I
always wanted to hang with the people
who got more than me I don't want to be
hanging with the guys who I got to tell
them all the time yeah I already that's
already my role so in for order me to
stay sharp I got to deal with other
people who who got more than me who
already did [ __ ] who already Stu AB if
you're the one pouring into everyone
else you become empty you know come
empty so I got to get filled up from
certain different places you know what
I'm saying I always had older guys from
the to this day like that's how I still
do how do you learn that as a kid I just
I just got around to those to that sense
as an adult and how you saying as a kid
that's just what you was on like cuz
that was my environment you know what
I'm saying right like real you could die
go to jail that's the realest [ __ ] in
the world so you got to adapt to those
environments you know what I'm saying I
had to learn how to hate
I'm he ain't never been in jail and he
been doing the same thing for 20 years
or he still he like hey I need to get up
under him I need to try to figure out
what he doing and I took that same thing
with with me in the music industry or
not even just the music cuz Mike Ruben
not even the music it's just business
it's just life just the way of life like
the type like Mike ruin I ask them [ __ ]
About Accountants like hey what kind of
accountants hey what kind of lawyers
like hey how does this go just having
regular conversations with him he didn't
told me so much stuff and like I done
save myself from so much [ __ ]
[ __ ] on a regular conversation tip
not even him knowing he giving me game
cuz he thinking like you supposed to
know this you don't know that like how
you don't know that I'm telling but I I
love him so much cuz he understands when
I tell him like bro we don't learn that
you know what I'm saying I could really
have conversation with him like nobody
probably ever be able to see the type
one-on-one conversation we have but it's
like a like a real homeboy not white no
black not billionaire like one me one of
my P so now I can tell him like Mike us
as people us as black people like we
don't go through it like that
learn daughters at a ag already growing
up to that they get $100,000 they going
to know what to do with it exactly I
could I didn't gave $100,000 to damn
near 100 people right and nobody don't
even know what to do with it the next
step to do with it only thing they know
how to do is spend it only thing I knew
how to do is spend it or buy some drugs
you know what I'm saying we learn uh
investing and accounting I got my
accounts from calling [ __ ] right I DM
Rick I DN 21 Savage I I I just start
looking at the people who I seen who had
like the right business I done got over
100 million dollar from labels and Deals

from being around I heard people have
tax problems people don't pay their
taxes to the point I was doing it so

all my money the more money I was saving
I owed IRS more money I didn't even know
you need to be spending this money you
need to be spending it the right way so
you can save it on your taxes you know
what I'm saying I ain't know none of
that and this is a while ago like
whenever I start rapping two years from
there cuz I a pay my taxes the first two
years right and I've been rapping eight
years I pay my taxes quarterly now and I
still the rappers that I meet I be
trying to tell them but they like it
kind of going one out the other but I be
trying to tell them like hey this how
you got to do it you know what I'm
saying hey start when you get a check
before you even get a check hey declare
getting a check and try to spend the
whole check on something that's right
off that you can turn the money and
parlay the money and then pay the taxes
10 years later now but like coming from
where we come from that's where it feels
where I feel like I hindered myself from
dropping out of school and stuff like
that cuz at first it's like [ __ ] I don't
learn none of that [ __ ] no more anyway
right but it's it's did they teach us
that in school in high school in our
school probably not in high school but
maybe in college but I went to Atlanta
Public Schools but I got kicked out of
Atlanta Public Schools and my mama lived
in East Point so I went to a foron
county school so when I left Washington
they a have none of that type of [ __ ]
but when I went to Tri City for the
little time they had like a cting
classes and economics and then that even
made my mind even more like damn like I
really seen like when they say like the
students in the hood don't get the same
curriculum as outskirts students you
know what I'm saying like I start I I
actually been in it like I went to a
school where the cheerleaders sit
together the football players sit
together kids drive the school yeah that
was me at em and I went to school with
[ __ ] who sell dope who Mama smoked
dope who got damn who got a gun in
school like I didn't seen both of them
to the point where it's like damn I
really had to to realize and understand
because if I never had went to Tri City
I would have really never knew that [ __ ]
ex this right I see it on TV but you on
like my school ain't never look like
that so I didn't even think that's real
feel like what you feel like was dami
near set up for failure D is set up for
failure yeah you know what I'm saying
but you can suceed in it so I can't
that's why I want to say damn near set
up for failure because I know people
who've been in the same circumstances
with me and doing and successful now you
know what I'm saying the the rate ain't
high as the people who went to the other
school but it still can happen you know
what I'm saying so I ain't never I still
ain't never blaming the system and all
that because you can overcome it but I
do understand and I see how you can fall
victim to it I want to ask you what what
do you think is the most surprising part
of the Journey of your career so far to
me honestly it's just me even getting
this big you know what I'm saying like I
even never even knew what this big was
you know what I'm saying so like to
accomplish everything I accomplished
it's like damn like I really did that
and like I be telling you I don't put my
mind in it so I don't even really get
caught up in it like dming girls I'm
always on a Blog and now I talk some [ __ ]
[ __ ] like but I never d a girl from my
real page but I never even got into it
to know like a you supposed to do that
like like but you know who you is you
don't even think about it like that I
don't even look at myself like that you
know what I'm saying like even though
like I ain't regular you know what I'm
saying but in my head I'm regular right
you know what I'm saying say like all
the videos that always are of you out at
a gas station or just somewhere alone
with your hand in your pocket like you
don't even down that to me like hey baby
you're a celebrity and you cuz I never
want to get into that cuz I a want to
lose myself into that to the point where
down there they hurt me a little cuz
it's like [ __ ] you're a celebrity like
act like it you you don't have the the
biggest love for security guards no
because why do I want somebody in my
business all day yeah these people
regular people these people got to go
home these people talk they WIP these
people talk to you never know I seen the
weirdest [ __ ] security steal security
recording you just not even about
security I don't care to have extra
people around me hence to why I never
really have a super crazy creative or
super crazy merges cuz I'm so like boxed
in I don't want nobody around me man you
know how big this is for you for me to
let of course you come to my houses but
these people in my house with cameras
and I hate that like I it's like yeah
it's like damn near I was I be putting
on an act to be a rapper M like like
like it was my job m versus like now I'm
making it into my life right cuz at
first I looked at it as a job you know
what I'm saying
like time to go to work so I cut on my
rapper mode and when I'm off work I cut
it back off right I'm trying to learn
how to just stay into that make it one
just make it one like hey this is my
life you know what I'm saying no matter
what I'm it's tough cuz the life you
really originate from is so different
than being a rapper so different but
nowadays I do that more than I do what
would have been doing the street so it's
it's it's becoming a little bit more
normal for me yeah I mean and you're a
lot more comfortable and life is safer
than that life and exactly all of these
and I'm 30 years old too right that's
young so that's not old at all but it
ain't 21 22 23 right you know what I'm
saying and I'm 30 and I didn't grew
seven years a whole different way like
the last seven years it's
been whether I knew it or not every day
I've been changing changing and changing
to get to this point so let me ask
you how long do you want to do rap for
do you know have you thought about it is
that I always think about it I I don't
want to be a certain age jumping on
stage I don't want to be and and and
this the this the main thing with me how
long I'm going rap it depends on how
much of the business I own depends on
how how long I rap elaborate meaning
like I own my touring company I'm
touring for myself right I'm saying I'm
paying and I'm getting him a split I
could do it forever but far as y'all
paying me to wo I ain't going to do that
forever right like certain stuff is even
even for the money certain stuff I'm
just not going to do as a person you
know what I'm saying as a as a as a man
you know what I'm saying like certain
stuff I just can't I can't abide with so
far as like doing music I always thought
and you could probably can see one of my
short interviews I always think my music
career is
this my life is this you know what I'm
saying the goal is to be Michael j in it
stays with your whole life you know what
I'm saying but I already be preparing
myself for it being this short right you
know what I'm saying you always said
that to me so even if I was and I'm
nowhere near falling off if I was I
wouldn't be mad you know what I'm saying
I sit myself up always you said you
never thought you were going to get this
far so you couldn't be upset you get
what I'm saying yeah but they still give
me the the the motivation now to go on
and take this [ __ ] to the next level
like stop plan you know what I'm saying
well I'm glad you got I'm I'm glad you
got to the point of caring because for a
good many I don't think you cared I
didn't you know what I'm saying but but
it's good though I mean it it just shows
that that's what I was saying like God
know me I'm stubborn I'm stuck in my
ways you got to Dam it gonna be
something dramatic for me to change so
let me ask what in your brain what does
the term falling off mean I don't even
know my me fall off you was on and you
off you fell off right not like is that
Financial to you or all of it right
Financial to me really what matters
right you know right right it can't be
fall off if you got millions that's the
that's the fall off for but I understand
far as like somebody not being hot as
they was or somebody not performing how
they were and that's consider a fall off
so I do understand that you know what
I'm saying whether it's fall off might
not even be the right word but I I get
it you know what I'm saying the industry
that we in right entertainment business
is so far different than
the street life I always tell people in
the streets I got a word in this
business I don't got no word I tell you
this mean a word my word like my word is
burn in the streets if I tell you
something in the street that's what it
is in this business your word can't
can't my word is not lock cuz [ __ ] s
them to change you know what I'm saying
I had to learn that early you know what
I'm saying cuz I tell [ __ ] hey yeah
give me a 100 Bands I worth 800 B it got
to change versus in the street if I had
told you something that's what it's
going to be you know what I'm saying or
if I had signed a deal with you and I
gave you this percent and now I didn't
learn stuff hey we got to change it
right right why why is it different it's
like different rules and [ __ ] people
could you in this business freeh handly
you can't people inode of conduct it's a
different code of conduct Mor RS you
know what I'm saying it's different
consequences too you know what I'm
saying you got to keep your word cuz
this is a different kind of consequence
and this game is so you don't even got
to keep your word right so why would I I
be keeping my word to people who ain't
going to keep their word to me and the
streets the people who I kept my word to they they just going to keep their word
they they just going to keep their word to me sure in this game it ain't none of
to me sure in this game it ain't none of that you know what I'm saying it's like
that you know what I'm saying it's like every dog for they s so I had to like
every dog for they s so I had to like adapt to that I can't have them same
adapt to that I can't have them same codes and ethics that I had StreetWise
codes and ethics that I had StreetWise that I do in the business I
that I do in the business I can certain ones far as like when [ __ ]
can certain ones far as like when [ __ ] harder you go harder those kind of I
harder you go harder those kind of I learn from the street they going to
learn from the street they going to always go with me in business you know
always go with me in business you know what I'm saying how to sell a product to
what I'm saying how to sell a product to somebody that I learned in the street
somebody that I learned in the street that's going to always go on me in
that's going to always go on me in business but the way the business is
business but the way the business is executed that's what change you know
executed that's what change you know what I'm saying it's no contract in the
what I'm saying it's no contract in the streets it's no it's word percentage
streets it's no it's word percentage it's no word is bond it's like word is
it's no word is bond it's like word is bond right here this a whole different
bond right here this a whole different you know what saying respect is
you know what saying respect is different so let me ask you though
different so let me ask you though because what I was getting at is that
because what I was getting at is that entertainment business is purely and and
entertainment business is purely and and I'm curious how you feel about this
I'm curious how you feel about this but like you said earlier about certain
but like you said earlier about certain things that you it's hard for you to let
things that you it's hard for you to let go morally coming from the streets and
go morally coming from the streets and then we get into the entertainment
then we get into the entertainment business where things are as in 2024 a
business where things are as in 2024 a lot more accepted um as far as certain
lot more accepted um as far as certain things that were you know how you might
things that were you know how you might have grew up you don't stand for um as
have grew up you don't stand for um as far as maybe like snitching I always rap

with it you know what I'm saying like so those kind of morals and [ __ ] is like
those kind of morals and [ __ ] is like never going to leave you know what I'm
never going to leave you know what I'm saying it's like I'm always going to
saying it's like I'm always going to look at certain stuff a certain way like
