So I'm here man, I want to talk about this because nobody really gonna really talk about this. Doggy Diamonds did this and it take me looks like a job for you know how I do, you know I don't really got no allegiance to nobody. I got a, a relationship with a lot of people, but I don't have no allegiance. I don't, I'm not, I'm not biased. I'm not leaning to one side or the other. I don't got a nickel in the quarter.
I don't need nobody for nothing.
I've interviewed Tony Ayo, Young Buck, he kidding.
Hot Rod Mano, Jim Jones, Fabulous Davies. I've interviewed everybody.
So I don't have to be biased towards anybody.
Shout out to 50 cent and all he did for the culture.
Shout out to all of them.
But we got to be honest and we got to be truthful. What they're doing right now, what they did with what's going on with them right now, is why New York hip hop is down bad.
Every time we see some type of unification or any unity, something always messes up the unity.
So we go with the past.
We understand why 50 is the way he is.
The man was blackballed, he was stabbed, he was shot, all types of. So I get it.
So I kind of understood his issues with Irv, their lead artists, Ja Rule. But then he started attacking the women, Ashanti, you know, and, and I understood he wanted them out of here. I get it, I, I, I get it.
But then Fat Joe caught astray.
Jadakiss caught astray. So now you got the locks.
D block going at 50, you got terror squad going at 50.
So these is, this is New York City. This is the people who run the town.
These are the people who, who, who got the city. Whereas G Unit, D Block, Dipset are staples. Those are like the three headed monster. Then we would throw in Rockefeller. Then we throw in, we would throw in Terror Squad. We would throw in a lot of people into the culture that's a part of New York City, especially the DVD mixtape culture, right?
But New York is crazy because now we all picking size. It starts going deep in the music. Because what I, what I don't want y' all to ever get twisted is that the do spill over into the streets. Because everybody got soldiers, everybody got goons. Everybody got crashes. Dudes are from their respective areas.
It do and did spill over into the streets.
That happened.
So in 50, dissing the locks and others, he dis cots records, which was independent for a lot of people.
So in dissing Cox records, Cameron, Jim Jones back then, hell rel JR Rider, if I'm not mistaken, caught strays, which caused Cameron to get on the phone, do what he did. I heard that Cameron got paid to do that to defend Koch at that particular time. Jim and 50 was cool. So was Jewels and 50 was cool.
Lloyd Banks brother used to be with Juels all the time.
Lloyd Banks brother used to be with Juels. He was damn near part of Skull gang. John Depp is Lloyd Banks cousin. He was Skull gang.
Slow Bucks was cool with Jewels and was down with 50.
So when that happened on the phone with Cameron and 50, that really like had the city messed up. Because things wasn't right in Dipset.
So a lot of things was getting exposed. So you got 50 Cent versus everybody. And I understand the mentality, I understand the yo f everybody, but a lot of people were getting it by proxy at this particular time.
He was very, very powerful in a culture, you know, he. He had the power, he had the momentum, and he was using it for good, using it for bad for some, depending on what, you know, side you were sitting on. But it was very bad for New York.
Elephant in the sand and all of that. We loved all of that because it was making music, but it was up in the streets and how 50 carry it is.
If you stand with his enemy or stand too close to his enemy, his rap enemy, you can get it. So that's how Jada caught the stray, and that's how Fat Joe caught the stray. Which led to Khaled catching astray when. When French allegedly film Khaled. Mother ain't gonna forget that.
Another person from New York, but end up getting down with Khaled.
And then you got Khaled. And then Rick Ross jumps in there.
So now you got 50 beefing with Ross.
Then he's somehow beefing with the game.
And he beef fought tough. You know, he ain't no sucker in the streets.
He wasn't no sucker in the booth. He wasn't no sucker at making records. So he's a tough task.
He's a tough task. But now look at what happened to New York. Because now you got factions.
Now you got a powerful movement in the street G Unit or you the locks, but they're from Yonkers, so we can't Even really say they the five boroughs, but they their own thing. But they be moving around, out and about.
Then you got Dipset, that's Harlem. You got Cameron, Harlem. But then the Dipset ain't going through so nip. New York City Rapids is all in disarray.
It's just all in disarray. Then you got people who love Ja Rule, but scared to say they like Ja Rule because it ain't popular no more. You got people. You got women who love Ashanti, but it ain't cool to say you love Ashanti because it's not popular no more. To say you love Ashanti. It's not popular to rock the Ja Rule no more.
You got Ebro, who's the program director.
The south got something to say.
The south is making the emergence. You got a guy named the first. One of the first people who started putting the south on a map was a guy by the name of Gucci Mane.
Then you got OJ the Juice Man.
Mr. D, thank you for your donation.
50 behavior and thinking it was wrong with the community, I'm gonna let y' all call it.
Then you got Waka Flocka, who's from Queens, but we don't even know he from Queens. We think this from the south, right?
We didn't know he was from Queens. I didn't originally, he's from Southside, Jamaica, Queens. But then you got Ebro, you got Flex, you got all this. And rest in peace, who's very, very needed, who got into it, too.
DJ K Slay.
K Slay caught strays in it because K. Slay was Fat Joe, man.
So now when K. Slay has a job as shade 4 5, Fat Joe, like, yo, how you working with them data ops? I don't know if y' all know that, but him and K. Slay was like this. So that put a wedge in a relationship. But K. Slay is trying to hold it down. From New York, he gotta stay employed. Yeah, he got his Hot 97 show, but, you know, he. He got his show with shade 45 too green Linton was on the phone with Jadakiss.
Green Lantern was Eminem. DJ was on the phone with Jadakiss and said when Jadakiss did the Diss record towards 50, Green Lantern say, damn you. That was cool. I thought you was gonna give him the knockout blow. I'm paraphrasing.
Greenland got fired. He was Eminem dj. He got fired.
This went deep.
This went deep.
Dudes is catching each other in places.
Nobody from the major lineups, but dudes Was getting kicked in their ass in the streets. I'm. It's just real shout out, rest in peace to K. Slay, much needed in the culture and.
[00:16:16] Speaker B: And.
[00:16:18] Speaker A: Sorely missed for more ways than one. Not only was he needed in the culture, Case Slave was dope because I was able to hit Case Slay. And a lot of times it just build with him, you know what I'm saying? Shout out to. Shout out to K. Slay for that.
And his in his midst because his wisdom was like, you know, he was just an og.
So now the city is just in turmoil, Everybody beefing.
But it wasn't always like that.
It was a point. Whereas dudes would rock together. Yeah, dudes might not fuck with each other, but it wasn't no real beef where it'll just be like, yo, you'll stay over here. You stay over here.
So that was a little past history. I could go deeper into that, but I'm not going to do that.
I'm going to.
Let's go to now.
It was a particular time with Jim Jones and Mayno did not like each other. They talk about that.
Fab and Mayno did not like each other.
Davies is the new Jack in this situation.
So he didn't really, you know, he don't really got no, you know. No, no, no, no. He didn't have no issues with nobody in that besides a guy by the name of Trey Pizzy. But that's something different.
So when I see Jim Jones, Mayo Fab sitting together, I'm like, yo, y' all don't understand how big this is for the culture disrupting realities. Thank you for that. Super. Just set super super to the chat. 50 only tried to debo other black people in the industry. But when it's around them sun dodges, we see nothing but teeth.
I' ma let y' all call in.
So them sitting together doing records. The Lobby boys was big for New York City because they did not like each other in the streets.
They did not like each other in the streets. So them sitting together, I was like, oh, that's dope.
All of them had issues. So I'm like, this is some new New York City unity, right?
Because everybody beefing is what messed the music up.
And then when everybody was beefing and messed the music up, right when it messed the music up, the south came in.
So New York City music was just over with.
There is no G Unit.
There is no dipset. There is no D Block. There's no Terror Squad.
There's no the Mafia.
Fab ain't dropping music. Davies is trying to drop music, but it ain't sticking.
Then New York City gets invaded by what, the Chicago sound, which is Drill. So the little dudes is out there, you know, thugging and bugging.
But we like, yo, we hate Drill. Drill, rap.
K flock just got 30 years.
But all the older elder statesmen is not dropping music.
They trying to figure it out. But it was the beefs that messed everything up. Because people was getting. People getting kicked off of labels.
People was making calls. People wasn't selling. A lot of things wasn't happening. The radio stations is banning people.
Summer Jam.
50 and Fab is on stage together. Slow Bucks is on stage. He get washed on stage.
Y' all remember Fab and 50 is together on stage.
They together. Remember when Slow Bucks got hands put on him? Respectfully, I'm not trying to clown them, but it's the truth.
So it looked like it was a time where 50 was coming around. He deaded the D block. He deaded the.
He debted a lot of the issues that at the Fat Joe, which was big.
But there's no music now and there is no New York scene. All we got is the luck, the young dudes. But then we dissing the Fabio foreigns and we dissing the chef GS, and we hate Drill music. And we. But all the older dudes wasn't putting out no music.
But this is all we got.
So now we got a lot of dudes in the underground. And then New York City is starting to make a little reemergence via rock. Marciano Griselda is. Is coming into the. To. To. To the New York City visuals 38 special.
We got Rome streets. We got a few people that starting to say, hold up, we on to something.
Ransom.
We on to something. Joe Button retired. Like, so a lot of people was holding it down is gone.
But Joe Button was beefing with 50, remember?
So now in present day, we see dudes sitting together. And as much as we clown them, at least they're sitting together in unison.
But then it starts getting to this tribalism thing again. Max B, come home.
So certain people can't support the wave, but certain people could support the wave.
And I want to say. I want to commend Jim Jones.
And them for handling that well. Because although Davies went to the party, it didn't shun him or disrespect him for that. They, you know, Jim. Jim Jones handled that well to me, because people, I myself was like, yo, he gonna be very, very sensitive and kick him off the podcast, but he didn't.
So now Uncle Murder drops a song a year.
Tony Ayo is a blog, a vlogger pod answerer.
The culture is now talking.
Y' all welcome.
The culture is about talking. Now there is no more music.
There's no more music, but it's coming from certain camps. But you know, we, we, we, we kind of shun up state a little bit, which is foul, you know what I'm saying? Which is, which is, you know, we, we kind of shunned up state, which is foul. But you know, they still New York and they get busy in the booth and they get busy in the streets too, but that's a whole nother subject. So now we got everybody talking, but everybody has the mentality, better not say nothing about me. You know what I'm saying? Sincere thank you for your super chat. And it says a lot of people think 50 is tough, but when you think every person who ever tried to ended up getting life in jail from pre world henchmen, the ink got rated not suspicious. I'm a let y' all call.
But everybody has the mentality of don't talk about Nubin or talk about me. Flag as yay. All types of questions.
I don't, I don't mind, right? I don't, I don't have an issue with people talking, right? Like, because everybody is talking. I mean, everybody is talking.
Everybody. Every time you tweet, you, you, you leave a gram, you leave a Facebook message, everybody is talking.
So we can't pick and choose who could talk, who should talk, whose voice is louder, who shouldn't say nothing. Because when it went from the music game to the talking game, it is up for everybody.
When people started having an opinion about your music, your art, the culture is, it is what it is.
So they give an opinion on the documentary because it's a trending topic. They're supposed to talk about it.
But now it's like, yo, these better not say nothing about me and my what I'm doing.
And that's a little unfair. And I'm gonna say it again because I said it the other day.
May know Jim Jones, Fab and Dave east is learning a valuable lesson of what it feels like to be on the other side of the microphone.
Normally they get and ask the questions or normally they watching people like myself and others give think pieces on the culture.
I probably said some things that pissed them off before, but I always was talking about the culture.
They probably was mad at me.
Just last year, two years ago, everybody Was saying chain. All right, could have been mad at that.
Jim Jones went to the fashion show, they made that wear a blouse.
Could have been mad at that. We did. We do content on that. Y' all is content.
Now. They sit in the seat that some of us built, and they want to do content.
So now when people get mad at you, you got to retract all your anger that you might have for some of us, because you're making other people content the way people made your content.
So you can't be mad at nobody.
And at the same token, I don't think 50 should be mad at anybody. Because when you put out art, your art is there to be critiqued, whether everybody not gonna like it.
In my opinion, as long as not personal attacks and we talking about the art, all art is going to be critiqued. When people go to museums, when people go to art shows, they might look at a painting and say, this painting ain't the person who did the painting. Ain't gonna go swing on nobody and be like, oh, you dissed my painting.
You know, yo, when it come to art, it's always a. It's always subjective.
Salute to you, Ahmed. I don't know if you pronounce it Amar, but I'm used to pronouncing the Ahmed, so I'm gonna say it the way I did. You said salute. Is jealousy a major factor in the current state of new NYC hip hop? Ahmed, the point I'm making and thank you for your super chat. There is no New York City hip hop.
That's why everybody is blogging. That's why everybody got a podcast. There is no New York City hip hop.
They bodied that.
Now they're just looking for a new culture to body.
Now they're looking for a new culture to infiltrate and fuck up the way they did the music. Because respectfully, all of them was a part of an institution. Atlantic Records, Def jam, Interscope, Koch, E1, all of them had an opportunity to have some young boys right now.
Putting out content.
So instead of hiring podcasters, they do it they self. I can't be mad at nobody, but it's nobody. Better not say nothing about me. Yo, the minute I get on camera, 2015, the minute I got on camera, I knew somebody was going to say something.
I knew somebody was going to say something.
So it is what it is. You cannot run from that.
You can't run from that. The minute you put out any art, somebody could say, I don't like that.
You can't attack them.
And I'm A person who loves to express what I don't like because I don't dicky.
I don't care what, what. I don't care. If 60 people like something, I'll be 61. That's like, nah, that speed, I'm good.
Not because I'm trying to be a contrarian, because I got a mind of my own and I don't need anybody. Most of these people go along because they might want a favor later. I don't want favors from men.
I don't want favors, period.
I like to keep it funky, keep it real. If you ask me why I don't like something, I can have a full analytical breakdown just saying that I don't like something because that could be hate.
Sometimes I've been immature. I was just like, yo, I just don't like that nigga face.
That's immature and hating. Yeah, I'll admit that.
It's some rappers that I just don't like. I'm never going to like. And y' all love them.
Could I be hating? I don't know.
I don't even give it a chance.
Some rappers, I don't like their name.
I'm just being, I, I could be a little immature and petty.
I could.
But then sometimes I could listen to be like, damn, I played myself.
I even went on here one night and said, I know why y' all like my commie. My Kami still dissed me.
My Kami dis me.
He should have.
I said, I don't like the way he rap.
He dissed me is cool.
He said, I'm trying to go Diamond Doggy not do interviews with Doggy Diamonds. Hey, I wish more rappers did me. Please put my name in there. Put my names in these. Because I'm using it. Oh, it's good. Although he did it under a pseudonym, it wasn't my commie. It was a pseudonym, but whatever. Hey, you trying to go Diamond Doggy not do interviews with Doggy Diamonds. Hey, I love it. You ain't never going Diamond. You could try all you want, but hey, dis me, don't bother me. I ain't want him. He dis me. Yo, dis me, please, because I' ma use it.
I'm using it.
Hey, you said my name.
I. Slow your voice down. I distort you.
I make you sound like this.
Hey, this me because I criticized your art. So you gotta, you gotta a right to criticize my art. And I'm not mad. I, I, I didn't. You, you see, I didn't even Make a big stink about it. I didn't get on here. I didn't cloud it up. Yo, your cuz. I don't even really be.
I don't really think that. I don't really be like, yo, this got to go to the streets. Ah, whatever.
And the problem with this, right, For some reason, the casual people who's not from New York City, who are Internet people who like to egg on and like to think what they think, for some reason, y' all think these guys are afraid of each other.
Nobody's afraid of 50 Cent. Nobody's afraid of Maino. Nobody's afraid of Jim Jones, Fab or Davies. Nobody's afraid of me. These guys are not scared of each other. These guys got active hooligans in the streets, all of them that depend on these guys.
And guys going to have to choose. Like, what situation does this put Uncle Murder in?
Uncle Murders G Unit. But we know he got into the culture and he really rose in the culture due to affiliation with him and Mayno hustle hard manhood. If you know, you know.
So now you got a lot of dudes right now had to pick and choose who they gonna rock with.
So we don't know if this is just a troll thing.
We don't know if this. But I see people in the comments.
Even one of my cousins is in the comments, even one of my cousins in every 50 cent comment. And I'm terribly disappointed. But you know what? What could I do?
But everybody is down bad at the New York music scene is not what it used to be.
Because dudes beefing, the record labels losing the trust, the radio stations losing the trust. And then even certain people who have platforms are not from New York, so they don't understand New York. And most of them don't talk about music.
So the music scene got ass.
The music scene got ass is ass now.
So that's why every, every, every. Every release that come out, we just jump on. Yeah, that's a classic. Like how the you.
How the do you call something a classic in one day?
Classics are shit that we could play 20 years from now.
And it's a classic we be calling classic. Ain't no classic. But we so starved, we got deprived the lyrics.
We got deprived of good production. We got deprived of dope collaborations. We got deprived of a lot because of all this beef.
Good thing we got Beamer, Benz and Bentley. I should love that record or start it up. I love started up.
I love started up.
You know, I love. We. We got deprived of some Good. Oh, Swizz beats beefing with 50 because of something Cassidy said. And then bust a bodyguard Got unalive, too. Remember it was Yoda. Because y' all keep saying, yo, ain't nobody gonna do nothing, yo already happened. Y' all just don't know. Cause y' all not privy to certain information, and y' all be egging on.
And y' all think it's just Internet. But, yo, these dudes in the streets get active. I'm telling you, dudes in the streets get active over all of this shit.
Dudes get active.
All of them got the power. All of them got influence that got young boys that want to get active that's just sitting there waiting to crash.
The best thing that they might have going for them right now is they could rock with these guys doing something positive right now.
So now when dudes is 50 and better acting like jackasses, what do we think the little dudes going to do? But nobody wants to say what it really is. Everybody want to say, this person is petty. This person is this. Yo, all this is petty and dumb. Because got to the bag, dudes done touched continents. All these dudes is household names. Let me tell you something. I'm gonna be very, very real with y'.
[00:37:24] Speaker B: All.
[00:37:24] Speaker A: Many people in this culture did not get their shot, did not get their chance, didn't get to see no continents, never got a video, never got a treatment, never been in the studio, never got a record deal, never put their Social Security down, never even been in the record label before. All of these guys have had all of this before. And look how they blow it. Just trying to prove how much of a they are.
And then you wonder why the culture down bad.
And then we keep. Everybody keep calling out Jay Z.
This got a couple of billion. You think the living his life.
But we teasing his hair, teasing his outfits, teasing everything. But he got more money than everybody and don't even respond to niggas.
Brooklyn, Kennedy. New York City can never be down bad. Thank you for your.

Niggas is making strip club music in New York. Niggas is in New York. Talking about my bottles. That ain't what we did. First of all, let me give you the real true blue New York City history. If you want to know what New York City life was like, and I'm Talking about the 90s, the golden era, the shit that I was a part of. First and foremost, when you went to New York City, when you went in the party or the club, first and foremost, you danced.
You wasn't like this.
You danced. You didn't buy bottles. You went there, got. You was bent already before you got there. You went in there, you dance, you bag something, you poly, you went home. You ain't go there to dump, fight, do none of that. You was there to listen to some music. Oh, shit. This that. New leaders in the new school. I remember the first time I was in New York. I was in the Elks Club, right on Fulton and Franklin, the Elf Club, Food and Franklin. If you know, you know.
Onyx came on. Take them up. Take them up. Bring them. I was like, what the hell is this?
Know your guns. I was like, whoa, you danced. Y' all don't dance Y' all too cool. Y' all too busy playing grab ass and looking. Yo, he go on the fly. We didn't do none of that.
Of course we got fly with whatever fly was. But we wasn't trying to go buy no name brand because we knew we was going to be leaking at the end of the night.
Was taking the hoodies off, was forming a circle. Men were dancing. I know fun boys, street dudes, low lives was dancing.
There was no phones.
If you had a beeper, you was that dude.
But we was there listening to the music.
You had Kid Capri, you had DJ Doo Wop.
Then you had like sns, Craig G, you had other. But everybody was there having a good time. That was first and foremost. You were trying to get a number. You might have wrote it on your hand.
You might have wrote it on. On a piece of paper.
Now everybody there a big sausage party and is looking at each other outfit taking pictures with each other.
We working not a chicken sight, not a woman in sight or is going to the club now with their wives and girls.
Yo, Brooklyn Kennedy, you said we can't have out of town cats talking reckless. It's too late because New York City is ran by out of town.
What do you think? You think Ebro is from New York? You think Charlemagne is from New York?
You think academics is from New York? You think Vlad is from New York? I'm one of the only from New York and y' all don't even support me.
I wanted only dudes from Brooklyn that grew up in the heart of Brooklyn with the greatest rapper of all time that been putting on for the culture for 19 years. And I can't even get 300000 subscribers. But all the people who's from out of town get more traction and more subscribers than me. But I'll be talking about the culture.
I can't even get to like my. I can't even get to share my.
So please, what are we talking about?
I'm from that.
I'm from that neighborhood. The little Kim, the Foxy Brown, the Smith and Wesson, the Biggie, the easy Mo B. I'm from that.
I'm from that.
I could talk to that. I could talk about that, tell you some of the stories. Seeing Jay Z and Beat street doing shows with Jay Z in ski beats.
I'm from that.
Been documenting it forever.
But y' all don't want that. And you gotta admit it wants rumors and gossip. That's why these other shits be winning. That's why everybody succumbs to that.
It just is what yo, I know it is what it is.
Everybody going to succumb to that.
Everybody going to succumb to that frequency.
You got grown ass men that I never thought would carry themselves a certain way that was like yeah. What happened was. And I'm like this don't know nothing about nothing. But hey, if you're going to get a good 2030000 views, who the hell am I to tell them?
And then when you get a channel that get my subscribers base, they're not pushing out notifications to y'. All.
I talked about too much real shit, right? I talked about too. I exposed too much Brooklyn, Kennedy. Exactly. I know they not us, but I be pissed too. But at the end of it all, what could I do?
You know what I'm saying? What can I do?
And a lot of people that talk about the culture, trust and believe they're not from it. Some people sat next to me and you think they're experts. Some people were partners with me. You think they're experts? Trust me, they are not that cosplaying me, I really was there in the studios.
I really was in the sessions.
My man Face in the chat could tell you. My cousin spread love the movement could tell you. We was running around and said I probably was 15, he was 16, then I was 16, he was 17. We was running around, we was in these spots. I wasn't even supposed to be in there.
I was in there. I've seen it.
You understand what I'm saying? I seen it from Grant's Tomb to Jones beach, we taking the Iron horse to Club 2000.
That unique mecca audio we talk about. We was there when do it all was Calling my crib Fly Ty, rest in peace Calling my crib.
You understand what I'm saying?
That's what we was trying to do. That's what we. This is just the essence of what it was when I was on the turntables cutting why Biggie was rhyming.
This is all facts, little camera. This is all facts. You understand what I'm saying? So at the end of the day, This is where we come from.
So when we see the culture where it's at right now. Yeah, this is disheartening, but I ain't gonna be no rotary phone. And on some uniblab you ain't gonna catch me like, man, I miss rotary phones. Absolutely. I don't. I don't miss this.
So I'm about the evolution, about everything, right? But we still gotta maintain some type of integrity with it and then just go forward with it.
But that beef and never helped nobody.
I'm happy to see Jim. Fab. Fab don't even talk. We getting to know Fab.
I got a fabulous interview on here if you didn't see it.
But Fab don't even talk. We getting to know fabric now. I wish that they would start indulging and letting us know a little bit more about the culture, their experiences. I got a take on here with Fab. Talked about his business being bad because despite what we think, all of these dudes used to front like they got the best business and they getting all this money. Come to find out, all of them was getting beat.
Getting beat twisted.
You understand what I'm saying?
Sincere. You know about that nightlife.
Oh, don't. Oh, you use Cook Tim's don't wear no constructions nowhere.
Let me tell you something about the construction Tims, because first and foremost, we're going to be honest about the construction Tim. The original construction Tim that everybody was wearing did not have the leather around the top. Let's just get that right. Those wasn't the construction Tim's everybody was wearing. It was. It was like maybe a few years ago that started wearing the shits with the leather.
The original construction Tims did not have no leather around the top. That's just facts. When they started doing the double soul, that's when they started rocking the leather at the top. The leather was not a part of the original construction Tim's. Don't get it twisted. My dumb ass on New Year's Eve decided to go to Times Square with construction Tim's on.
Just came back looking like black chuckers.
Facts.
So we gonna talk about the NYC fashion, the NYC street lights getting punched in their nose. I was there for all that.
That's why y' all can't compare me to some of these other dudes. Because I was there. I was outside. I was amongst the.
That's why I could give you a good interview and ask certain people. Certain. Because I'm asking really rhetorical because I know the answer, but I know how to extract.
Extract the information from them to give to y'. All.
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, what I had on, I had a. I had a. A Michigan hat. This is fab. 5 days. I had a Michigan hat on. Michigan hoodie, blue jeans and construction Tims. We went to Times Square.
Shout out to my cousin L. Sweet Elliot. We went to Times Square. We had a pulley with a case of 40s you know, a case of 40s was only 12. We went to Times Square, came back looking like chuckers.
But it's down bad. It need a revival. It need a shot in the arm. It needs a scene.
But I don't. I think it's too late. I'm gonna be real with y'.
[00:51:05] Speaker B: All.
[00:51:05] Speaker A: I think it's too late.
And this is not a knock on anybody doing music. Because I know a lot of people take personal and think I'm talking about them or I think they not good enough. No, it's gonna take a collective.
I ain't talking about a dick riding collective either. I'm talking about the gatekeeping gotta stop.
Although I don't believe in gatekeepers because like I said on drink champs, a lot of who be trying to gatekeep ain't even in the gate.
They still looking for deals and trying to get on like you.
So don't never think that you're behind in the race.
It's just that other people know how to dress it up better.
Other people know how to make it look better. Because the could have on clean clothes and be musty.
Heard what I said? Could have on clean clothes and be musty. Smell like weed in cologne or smelling like purity in cologne.
And be fly and got that. I want to be alone. Colonial. So don't never look at somebody else's illusion and get fooled by the illusion.
Because they just trying to create the illusion of wealth. The minute a nigga could count his money, he broke.
I hear what I said.
The minute the could count his money, he's broke.
The minute the dude could show you material possessions and the money is in the material, and the material that they're showing you is not worth money, it depreciated. Broke.
That's why I invest in what I invest and I invest in the craft. That's going to bring more money. That's why this is so beautifully. Look at this.
Got big sets. I'm in the crib.
I'm in the crib.
I set this up. I set these lights up. I did these graphics. I did this artwork.
Ain't no teen, just me.
Because I respect the culture and I respect you enough that I'm not going to come before you with a shabby presentation.
I ain't got no million dollar deal.
I ain't got one sponsor.
You see my super chat don't be jinking like giving super chats to who already got money to send the cash app to who got money.
I don't know what that's about, but it is what it is.
You get what I'm saying?
But New York City hip hop is down bad. Because first of all, when you create your music, what is your outlet?
When we have Forbes dvd, I put everybody on there.
Me personally put everybody on it. I still be tweeting music now that you do. I don't even know some of these.
I don't even know some of these. But if I hear some fire, like, nah, that fire. Speaking of which, hold on. I don't even know, dude. I tweeted it yesterday. I listened to this song about 700 times. Maybe like 700 of his spins is from me. I'm gonna play a little bit of it because I don't want him to flag. But it's a dude named pfg is called Letter to the Ville ep.
The singer's song is called Letter to the Ville by PFG on Apple Music.
I heard 10 seconds of the beat got me.
Matter of fact, hold on. Let's go right here.
Let me see if I could find it.
If they. If they flag me or anything, I'm cutting it out. So just know that I'm not gonna cut it out now, but if later on they say, you can't monetize because this, I'm. I ain't gonna hold you.
That is up out of here. I'm gonna get rid of it. I'm gonna get. But. But listen to this, though.
I don't know, dude.
Okay, just be feeling. So Doggy Diamonds did this.
That's Brooklyn right there.
That's me doing that music.
So, you know, I ain't even gonna say nothing. I'm just saying, right?
New York City got messed up because a lot of the beefing right? Now, check this.
You don't think New York City got messed up because a lot of the beefing and a lot of the dudes that are beefing.
Had signing power. At what point.
Think about that. A lot of had signing power. A lot of niggas could put people on. And before I go, I want to say this, too.
Instead of 50 cents saying he gonna buy the building and. And take some of their podcasts. Why are you gonna say, yo, how could I partner with y'? All? Y' all got a facility, right?
Y' all got a facility.
Y' all got your podcast. Let me put Yayo in there with a podcast. Some of my crew.
Let's. Let me. Let's put some in there so we could teach the kids. Let's put some. Some. Some. Some. Some classes in there. Let's do something that we could teach the kid or have our own. Because now we got our own building. The way we got a Shreveport. We got one in the town.
Let's do some gang prevention there. Yo, you show good grades, you get to come through, get free studio time. It could do a lot. But instead of saying that, it's going to be like, yo, I'm about a building and kick y' all out y' all bums and all this. What is a bum these days? Like, what is a bum, right? What is a bum?
Just really think about that. What is a bum? Outfits is a bomb. Don't got money. Like what is a bum?
Because the money's in the idea and the execution. And when I see dudes executing and got the idea and the execution is. Is down pat. What is the bum? What is a bum?
Let's really think about that.
There's no such thing as a bum. Ain't on the street, ain't laying on the ground.
Yeah, they might get a little twisted that they think the money is in the chains, the whips and all that. You know that's psychosomatic in the subconscious. Because we come from chains and whips. So that's the first thing they gonna get again. Chains and whips, you're gonna give that again.
Chains, whips. That's where we come from. That's what they gonna get again. Gonna gladly take their oppression and they're gonna put the money into our dysfunction. Just is what it is. Until dudes waking up, wising up. And it might not happen now, but that's for us to use our platforms to kick that to people.
That's what we supposed to do.
You get what I'm saying? Because just because certain people of a certain age, that don't mean that they're mature. Because you got niggas who be grown ass boys, all of them niggas pushing 50. But they understand the algorithm, they understand the promo game, they understand all that. And dudes is playing by any means necessary to get their bag, because this is what the bag consists of. Now, do I think all of them should be ashamed of? They sell? Absolutely. But it became an audience for that.
There's no audience for some of the shit that I want to say. And it is. And I respect y' all don't think I'm getting it twisted, but look where the mass is at. The masses, his asses.
You understand what I'm saying?
So when you think about it, the misery, the dysfunction, the downtrodden that is crabs in the Barrel mentality. But think about it. The crabs don't belong in the barrel. So that's why they're going to act out. So some of the environments we in, we don't belong in that. And some of us are so trained to be a crab in a barrel. Ain't even in the barrel. Is going to climb in the barrel.
Where the barrel at? Cause I'm out here that up a lot.
And think about this.
All you fun Boyery, you know, weirdo, Tongue piercing, lip pierce, eyebrow pierce dudes or, I don't know, maybe you got a. A G string on. Well, some of y' all ain't my kind of people, right? You got your own community.
Stop talking about what street and what's stupid and what ain't. This it was that. If you never came from that.
Some people have been poor longer than they've been rich. And they have to grow into their richness. But the richness is the mentality. The biggest jewel is your mind.
Diamonds was formed under pressure. That's why that's my name. Right? But the biggest jewel is the information.
Just because A is oh, that don't mean he's wise with age. Supposed to come wisdom.
A lot of people don't got that.
You understand what I'm saying? A lot of people don't have that. So y' all saying they 50 years old? Ain't nobody gonna do nothing tonight. Only people that are black get clown for their aids. Because John Gotti was 50 and he still was John Gotti, right?
So you think. Cause Mayno is 54, 50 is 50 something. Jim Jones knocking on 50 door. Fab is and Davies will be there in a couple of years. They not who they are. Cause they 50. So I'm seeing people saying, oh, they 50 years old. They ain't gonna do nothing. But you believed in John Gotti, right? You believe Sammy the Bull right now because he's Sammy the Bull. But when you see your own people, you think, can Nothing happen? They 50. Can nothing happen? John Gotti was 50.
The Chin Gigante was 50.
They still. Who was they? They still was who they was, right? So miss me with that? Oh, they 50. Oh, this is stupid. That's stupid. Keep your ass in your lane that you belong in. And I'm glad you there because the dumb, ignorant street ain't for everybody. But what you shouldn't do is comment if you lack understanding. Because these dudes think they got to survive because they've been put against each other. They in a culture where everybody keeps saying there's enough money from everybody, but everybody is sponsored by somebody. A lot of people not taking they dough and putting it up. So if they taking dough and putting it here and taking dough and putting it there, then dudes is fighting for the crumbs. So it's not enough money from everybody.
You don't think it's ironic I say four or five day ain't too many black DJs or black people with shows. It's a bunch of Spanish and white people. You don't think that is weird? You don't think on Sirius, you don't really see too many black guys with shows. That's another topic. We'll conquer that another day.
But if you Puerto Rican or Spanish or white, you got to show at serious. You don't think. You don't find that to be peculiar?
Do the knowledge, as Fred Joe would say.
Because I want to show up there.
I want to show.
I better pay attention to what's really going on.
Y' all pay attention to do the knowledge.
Pay attention.
They slowly but surely erasing us out of the culture that we created.
I'm just here to try to preserve the little bit that's left. I'm gonna give you some of that, too. Because something called balance, sometimes you got to give people what they want in order to give them what they need.
Hey, anyway, let me run. I got some stuff to do. I gotta call my man Face.
I might go live later and show y' all I'm hooking up the studio right now, and I just need some consultation on stuff. So I'm gonna call my man Hova Nisi and call my man Face. So anybody who sent a cash app, I appreciate you. Anybody who donated tonight, salute to y' all again. When you see these guys going through it, stop egging it on, because every fucking everybody want an audience.
I asked y' all all the time, and I want y' all to ponder this.
Who's worse, the clown or the audience?
Who's worse, the clown or the audience?
So people think this is what you want, they gonna give it to you until you start rejecting it.
Even tattoos, this is not made to go into our skin.
Ever so often, your tattoo will rise, still trying to push the ink out. Even your skin will reject the tattoo.
Every now and again, the shit itches.
Every now and again, your skin, your body still like, get that shit out of you.
So at the end of it all, it's supply and demand.
You got people who's playing circus master, you got people who's playing clown but you know who the circus master is, right?
It's them folks, because they look, oh, you got numbers.
Academics got what, 7,000 people watching him right now. I mean, I don't even want to disrespect him because I don't want to single nobody out.
But he could talk his. He could sit there, get bent, talk his, and he could. But he a clown.
He got them numbers. And you know what?
We are in a capitalist society.
And this is a market.
If it's marketable, they're going to market it.
This is not a con. Keep telling y' all that. If it's marketable, they're going to market it. If the numbers reflect that's what people want, they're going to give it to you. Even if it's dirty, filthy water. If people going to drink dirty, filthy water, they gonna give it to you. That's what y' all want.
So when they, we, some of us say, hit the like, I don't know if I like it, but go somewhere else then, because if you with me, you're gonna support me in all ways.
I shouldn't have to beg for numbers. I shouldn't have to beg for comments. I shouldn't have to beg for that. Because once some of us is gone, look what you stuck with.
And remember, y' all have more power than you know you have. But you relinquish your power because you follow people who make you think you ain't, who always want to talk about you broke. You a hater, you a bum.
They never said you wasn't intelligent.
They never said you wasn't good. Mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, cousins, godfathers, uncles, aunt. They never said that. They just say you a bum, you a hater.
That's why many of y' all express the afraid to express your displeasure in certain shit. Because you know, who the fuck want to be a hater, then you don't want to say what you like because niggas call you a glazer.
You should. I'd rather be. I'm indifferent. I ain't no dick sucker or no hater, so I ain't gonna say nothing.
Y' all stuck between the Rock and the Hard Place and y' all let people dictate who's not even qualified to sit in the seats because they not from it.
You understand what I'm saying? They not from it.
Stop looking at people because they got money as they got any type of intelligence, because people just got people around them and they getting a puppet strings pulled. That's why you have Dudes that only go at their own people.
Who they doing that for?
Because it's sanctioned.
Because anytime you going at a certain demographic of people and you gonna hurt the money, they get your ass out of here.
I did one of these dudes to say they selling, locking the town down, selling work.
And they sold it to all a different race and nationality. And they got everybody fiends out there, they ass would be out one day. What?
Oh, no. They could kill them, kill each other. Get that some money.
Get that some money. You see everybody looking at it.
Get that some money. Give him a deal.
He's a influencer. That's why when these do what they do, they always tagging these brands, tagging liquor we don't need. Every time you was drunk, you made a poor decision.
Most women got pregnant, most as fathers off that yak or woke up in central booking.
It's all a damn grand scheme that we just keep falling for wash, rinse, repeat, go from generations, go to different people.
It's just. It's just terrible. But then when you have people who's authentic that try to tell you shit, and I'm not talking about all these other people who seem to be authentic, who are deviants, weirdos are trying to hit you with some religious innuendo when they just really just want to eat ass and like that or get naked pictures, you got all types of weird ass people. So I'm not talking about them.
I'm talking about people who. You seen Bill from Grassroots sitting where they sit now.
Never been a clown, never been a bozo, never had on a costume and to a certain extent didn't even really change their tune, just tweaked it because I'm an individual that if I said something 14 years ago, I said that today.
My stance is my stance. I'm on what I'm on.
I'm on what I'm on.
And I don't sat around the grace. Done been around the grace. Call them on the phone right now. Y' all seen me do that. If you know, you know, y' all see me call people. Call some of your favorite artists. Call some of your favorite producers.
I'm seeing that mayno scene Troy Ave and gave him a pass.
That's what I'm seeing. I think Harlem Legend put it up. I'm gonna go peep that later. Shout out to Harlem Legend. Shout out to all my people that's on this YouTube reporting and doing what they got to do and step in their game. Or you see Harlem Legend got his lights Together bought one of these mics. This mic 400. Got the arm. Yeah, I like all of that. I like when I see dudes, yo, this taking this serious, investing some coin.
I like that.
I like that.
So in the end of it all, support your local artists, man. And if some of y' all go just a little bit for your man, the way you going, for people in comments who don't like Nas album, you, your man might be. I some of y' all going hard. Y' all actually looking for people to argue with when they don't agree with something. And I'm like, yo, instead of arguing what you disagree with, why don't you just talk to the fucking people you agree with?
No, it's certain people that I just don't follow and don't watch. It's just the truth.
I don't follow people or watch people to say I don't like them or. Or. Or I don't.
They're my apple. I want to say something. I just don't.
I just don't rock with them.
Az rather unique. I don't know what that got to do with anything, but az rather unique. Them drums is due to Funky Penguin. I love them drunk, but I shouldn't have told y' all that. No sample snitching. I remember no whack bars. I tried to do something every Saturday where dudes could call in and rap fell flat, so. So I'm like, I ain't wasting my time on Saturday.
It ain't like I'm gonna go turn up. But, nah, niggas ain't wasting my time.
Yo, I pay for a telephone number for y' all to call in, too.
Matter of fact, let's do some callers. Y' all want to do some callers before we go? Let's do some callers. Let's do about.
Let's do 10, the first 10 callers, and we could get up out of here. The number is 516-2186-8985-1621-8689. And let's do 10 callers, and then we out of here, because I always want y' all to be included in what I'm doing. Like I said, I don't know how that music thing gonna go that I play earlier. Make sure you put that in your playlist or whatever, because I might have to cut all of that out, which I'll do, because I don't want to make it seem like I'm stealing them guys or illegally playing anything from them, but I wanted Y' all to hear that. I think it's that dope. I think it's worth the risk, you know what I'm saying?
Like I said, I don't. I never met any of them in the flesh. I just like what they did. And if you need promo, also hit me.
816. Oh, no. 860. What's your name? Where you calling from?
[01:13:16] Speaker B: Yo, please, Doggy Dallas.
[01:13:18] Speaker A: Oh, my God. What's going on?
So what you think about what I'm saying?
[01:13:23] Speaker B: Yo, listen, man, I don't even want to talk about the 50 Cent situation. I'm off that. But I was just listening to what you've been saying for the past couple of minutes, man. That kind of got me my feelings. Because I'm saying I was raised off this hip hop shit. I mean, excuse my language, but basically the question I wanted to ask you, and I typed it in the chat, was how can you use your celebrity to pair with other celebrities that you know of, that you know, that rock with you who change hip hop? Or is it not worth it?
[01:13:59] Speaker A: Well, all right, let me give you an open, honest answer for one. I don't think I'm a celebrity. That's. That could be a problem. That could be my modesty. That could be an issue. I don't think I'm a celebrity. I think I do have certain like minds, but I've also been deceived in the past because people be having hidden agendas.
I don't think it's worth it. I think I just got to keep chugging on my. On my. On my journey. And I just hope that the people will resonate with the people. But as far as pairing with people and working with people, I'm off that. I don't ever really want to work with nobody else again.
I really don't. I don't ever want a steady co host. I don't want none of that. Because the shit that people be on behind the scenes, you. It would really baffle you, you know what I'm saying? But we definitely need.
And come down to the finances, too. Come down to the support of the people in the finances, because everybody is bought and paid for. So if you come in from a independent standpoint, how do you compete with somebody who's spending $20,000 in ads a month?
You understand what I'm saying? You.
I might not even make 20 grand a month. But that's in the ads.
They got these big corporate entities. They got, you know, all these sponsors, and they got the ad revenue. So it's Hard to compete with some of that stuff. So if they're being paid to drown out the culture and just because they of the culture, that don't mean they're for the culture. Because how many of these dudes are really talking about music?
[01:15:31] Speaker B: Absolutely, you guys. Yeah, you got a point about that. But based off your, your contact, like, I know you said like you mentioned also that you can contact some people that you knew in the industry for X amount of years.
You don't think that there would be.
Well, I guess you just kind of answered my question.
[01:15:49] Speaker A: Is tired, man.
Yeah, a lot of dudes is tired too, because I get a lot of people who. Yo, dudes afraid to speak, bro. That's why they look for me to keep it real. Dudes afraid. Dudes are afraid because they might want that next mass appeal. They might not want to burn the bridge. They want to get on the artist. Artist's show. They want to get on the Joe and Jada show. Dudes are scared.
[01:16:15] Speaker B: I just don't understand that, yo, because you know how much power that we got as a unit. I just don't understand how, how cat see, when we, when we speak individually, I can understand it because you know, when it's one person that's going through the door, that's the first person that gets shot. When we stand together as a collective and we all speak up simultaneously at the same time, yo, they don't got no choice but to listen, man. But I don't know why cats just don't think like that.
[01:16:39] Speaker A: Because he got to have a like mind.
So let me give you an example, right? So remember at once upon a time we supposed to be boycotting Vlad, right? Remember we as a collective, we supposed to boycott Vlad. All he did was move the seat. All he did was saying, yo, they don't want to do it. Who want to do it. You always gonna have somebody say, I do it.
I do it myself.
I goes on there and I talks about whatever you want. Us kick anybody's back in is. Is never. It's never no like minds In a culture where all you got to do is dangle a carrot.
A donkey, right? A donkey will let a sit on their back with a carrot in front of them and chase the carrot and never get it. And then took them somewhere following a carrot that they never gonna catch a donkey, but let a whole heavy ass human being sit on their back. All they got to do is dangle the carrot and this gonna keep walking. But what is a donkey though? A jackass.
[01:17:42] Speaker B: Exactly.
[01:17:43] Speaker A: Most of these people are jackass. So it don't even matter to certain people.
Got, you know it's on. It's some people who more know. I saw you on Vlad don't even know this rap.
People don't even know that this person made music. People don't even know that this person did classic been on TV shows and all that. They know them from Vlad. See, exposure became the new money.
It ain't even the money no more. It's just the exposure.
[01:18:10] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. People just trying to. Trying to get on.
[01:18:12] Speaker A: Trying to get seen. Now they just trying to get seen.
They don't even have nothing to sell. They can't even sell themselves as having merch product or anything. Everybody's on some coming soon shit.
Hurry up and wait. Oh, he did this. I'm gonna do this. Oh, they doing this. I gotta do this. I gotta post something. I gotta. That's all it is.
[01:18:34] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. And real quick, even with the question that I asked, is this something that you've already tried?
[01:18:40] Speaker A: Have you tried it as far as look, getting a lot of people? Yeah, I mean, I tried to get people. When I had Forbes dvd, I was trying to get people behind it, but was like, yo, world star, world star. I'm like, yo, but I'm from Brooklyn, I'm here with y'. All. I had. Who I was standing with talking about, yo, you could get the video on world stuff. I got my own site I'm doing. I'm not here filming with you for them.
I'm filming for me. How you telling me to take something somewhere else that don't make no sense because people be blinded by these phone numbers.
[01:19:17] Speaker B: God damn.
[01:19:17] Speaker A: That's how people are still looking at you. Don't get no views. They think that other is getting views because they looking at numbers. But they don't look at the engagement, they don't look at the likes and they don't look at the comments. But people just see one thing and the masses is asses. And it's so easy to fool the people. The only reason why I don't do it because I would have to be fooling myself and trying to fool you. And then sometimes when you try to fool yourself to fool other people, you start believing your own.
That's how you get taken out.
Because you rocked yourself to sleep. You trying to. You rock yourself to sleep trying to rock other people to sleep.
I just want the audience to know that you rock yourself to sleep trying to rock other people to sleep. Because when you, when you really, really wake up.
The truth is the truth. But that's why they say fake it till you make it. What happens when you don't make it? The average person don't make it.
You know what I'm saying? So I'd rather have my slow and steady 19 years and the come out the gate blazing for four or five years. And then everybody looking at them now like, yo, why are you still even around?
People don't even really know how this go, you know what I'm saying? And a lot of times, people don't even understand, even a person like myself, what I actually even own in. In a part of. Because you can't even say what you own or you're a part of because start. Oh, I don't like you. So I don't like that now. Could be a fan of something or you was a part of that. I don't like it now.
We can't even say what we own there.
[01:20:46] Speaker B: People be picking and choosing right. Picking the shoes with the rock with you based off of. Off of whatever, you know what I mean?
[01:20:52] Speaker A: And I'm gonna be real with you. I don't give a who with me. Like, I ain't one of them. Who would be like, why you don't let. Yo, listen, man, I got people in my family I don't even speak it to speak to. And that's my blood.
Yo, I ain't trying to. I. I ain't trying to keep nobody that don't want to be kept. I'm not trying to stay around nobody who don't want to be stood around. I'm not trying to befriend nobody who don't want to be friends. And again, like my station identification say I make people renew their friendship with me. Now you got to sign on the.
