thousands thousands of songs. um I'm told most often. that most iconic or identifiable one is. obviously still Dre we got give me a. little that real. quick let's see. [Music]. [Music].

now if you watch my fingers while I'm. playing that if I was just like a. [ __ ] sterile like just basic. [ __ ] I'd be. [Music]. playing but I wanted to do it. [Music]. like sloppy right like that perfect. imperfection like you don't want. sometimes you want a nice sloppy booty. or a nice [ __ ] you know what I'm. saying you don't want things always like. perfect Picture Perfect Right you like a.

little grit on your hardwood floor yeah. yeah yeah no that's where uh you know. that perfect imperfection how did you. get started huh how did you get started. making beats like what started you in. music what started me in music okay go. all the way back all the way back all. the way. back listening to like aie Osborne and. Cheap Trick In The Mirror with a Kennis. racket thinking wow I could probably get. some girls to like me if I knew how to.

[ __ ] play this [ __ ] and then my. parents had like a upright piano in the. house and it was a piece of furniture. and I had cassette you know at that time. it was all about cassettes and I had the. little baby cassette thing I put it on. the piano bench and figure out how to. play all my favorite songs just just. self-taught yeah and you know I ended up. taking three or four. lessons and the guy was like you should.

just teach yourself really yeah like and. my family didn't we didn't have no money. like and my mom to get to the piano. lesson all that [ __ ] was just I did my. thing and like to the point where my mom. and dad were like can you go outside and. play with the kids I'm tired of hearing. this [ __ ] like no no no no no no and. then that evolved. into I moved with my father my parents. had divorced my dad was a court reporter. stenographer.

and we moved from I grew I was born in. New York as an infant moved to Florida. but when I was 15 just turning 15 I. moved to Philly with my dad and. um I was really getting into music I was. experiencing like hip-hop now in my head. like what year was this I don't even. know what year was it how old you now. I'm 50 okay seven years different than. me so yeah okay I'm real horrible with. the years but. um talking early 90s yeah extremely ear.

the beginning of like the the big. hip-hop boom out of New York and when I. first found a love for. hip-hop it. was this music that they were sampling. all these like cool like Fender Road. sounds like uh like say Tribe Called. [Music]. Quest that's not one of mine but it was. that like uh relax yourself girl you.

know all that like native tongue the day. Soul all that type of [ __ ] was heavy and. like I was like Wow music is really. great in this it was different than like. I mean I loved NWA and I loved like but. that was like hardcore [ __ ] and then. like this. musically Guru and Jazz and like all. this [ __ ] was coming around so I got. into that and I couldn't really afford a. keyboard I'm living in Philly my dad was. like I was cutting School and going into.

the city from the BBS to like get in the. music scene at this young age and it was. like. yo go back to school and start that [ __ ]. or get the [ __ ] out he's trying to do me. a favor with tough love but I decided to. get the [ __ ] out at 15 and now I'm like. cou hopping at homies and that uh led to. moving into the [ __ ] Hood in West. Philly with this guy who is an aspiring. manager was a videographer that I met at.

my dad's Court Reporting firm and kind. of like halfway against my dad's will he. took me in and we started hitting the. pavement man and I joined the roots they. were called the square roots at that. time you know the band on Jim Quest love. Etc and um I didn't have much money and. I bought what they call off Fender roads. this is like big keyboard which is. they're very expensive now cuz it's a. vintage but at that times I could get. that for like 200 bucks and I got the.

keyboard had a couple of broken notes on. it and [ __ ] and I just made my sound. with that and it was just like this. Soulful um this thing you know what I. mean and um joined the roots and now I'm. a band. member you know at simultaneously I'm. doing construction in Philly for a. friend of mine who has like these like. shell houses that I got to live in one. for a while I got got my first place I'm.

like living in this thing he lived. across the street in kind of a nice one. this is like super horrible neighborhood. but he's got almost like the whole block. and like there's construction site on. the first floor I had to walk up and. this was like semifinished one no. electricity but he ran a cord across the. street and a power strip for my. electricity I ran everything on that one. power strip like I had a [ __ ] a space. heater like this cuz it was freezing. cold I had like a keyboard set up like.

so I could do my thing and I was just I. made my existence and wow if I had never. made it I was like man I'll just play it. Bar Mitzvah and weddings and [ __ ]. call it a day but I'd rather do that. than be a court reporter or some other. [ __ ] like right and school wasn't for me. couldn't focus on anything but the music. it always bums me out that there's so. many people out there like that that do. have they have intelligence and ability. but the system just wants them to plug.

do passion it's no Talent passion yeah. if you're a passionate person and you. love something so much you're going to. end up being good at I think if you're. doing it to get money or something else. it's like it's questionable or you just. want to be cool because you like music. but if you're so passionate about this. [ __ ] that you're showing results and. you're growing and you're seeing that. you watch people's reactions I still do. to this day if I'm in the studio I'm. playing some [ __ ] like I have this like. weird thing where start receiving.

satellite and I'm like playing and I. don't even know satellite SAR I'm not. even there anymore I'm just like all of. a sudden I'm just doing this thing I've. been doing it for 30 years and I watch. the room I'm like oh they like this one. okay let's use this you know what I mean. that's how I know if I'm moving. people receiving satellite is a great. way to put it cuz that's what it feel. like I always say that like there's. sometimes I write things I'm like I. didn't really write that that blacked. out and it got yeah that's that came. from somewhere I didn't have any eort. involved in this it just came to me like.

a gift from the gods yeah it's rece. that's why they always call it the Muse. you know because the people that were. you know like Shakespeare and those. people they really did kind of feel like. it was being given to them yeah we all. do though right real yeah but doesn't. everybody kind of say that when they're. being honest like anybody who writes. anything whether they write literature. whether they write music comedy whatever. it flows through you yes if you have to. work for it it's contrived sort of like. I feel somewhat like if something. doesn't come like I push myself yes.

because there's technical stuff that you. have to but that initial light bulb that. goes off and just just get in that zone. yeah downloading satellite and it's the. the thing about it is it's it's. so hard to control it's just it's it. comes it goes it's there it's not what's. that water you're drinking what is this. crazy you know what it's bag water I'm. going tell you what it is I get like. inflammation like I'm playing piano.

whatever like I sometimes get like a. little bit like and this is like. hydrogen water okay and I I [ __ ] with a. friend of mine my boy Adam like he's. like listen I think you should try my. water he's invested in all kinds of. things and he's just he's been my best. one of my best friends in my whole life. guy Adam Linder [ __ ] cool guy I've been. down and out and [ __ ] do would take. me in and you know we're both michugan. is but you know he has this [ __ ]. water and um him and randomly enough my. boy who's a big songwriter Poo Bear. they're giving a go at this water thing.

so but I like it it's h factor water. dude yeah I've heard of that stuff it's. really good so when you say you're. getting uh inflammation in your hands. like carpel tunnel type kind of like. yeah sometimes things like sometimes if. it's cold and my hands it's like. freezing or something I can't really. like go in and like do you ever use CBD. huh do you ever use CBD or turmeric I. get turmeric yeah like I do that type. stuff I do like the little shots like. yeah you should do all the time raw. ginger raw yeah.

there's a place in La that I like that I. don't have it in Miami it's like my I'm. real tight with I don't know if you know. Rick Soloman he owns this thing sun. lifee and [ __ ] they have great [ __ ]. there so I do that oh the sun lifee. place in in uh California yeah yeah yeah. oh I do yeah yeah Rick is [ __ ] he's. been an inspiration to me and like you. know everybody knows my story and you. know he I look up to him because he was. able to walk away from drugs right very. easily and stay there for me I have a.

hard time with it um I still struggle. and like it's not drugs. it's to put it bluntly it's [ __ ] and. drugs together okay it's a Kell of a. combination and Drug sex and all that. [ __ ] and like um you know you get caught. up in that wave and like it starts. glamorously in your career of doing. drugs and it's just a [ __ ] it just. turns into something real ugly so he.

walked away from me for a while he was. like bro you're [ __ ] up again but I'm. in a great place now man I got good. people around me and uh I smoke and you. know I make my music and I chill these. days man that's great I've graduated I. was trying to tell you about your hands. like if you if you're getting. inflammation and you're taking hydrogen. water like hydrogen water would be great. but if you really want to cut it down. what we were talking about earlier is.

the way to cut it down stop eating. things that give you inflammation that's. the big one that'll change everything. yeah cut out all the sugar in the bread. and you'll be amazed at how well you. feel bread like I'm not really like a. sugar guy like some people eat sweets. and [ __ ] like me I'll go lately because. I'm trying to lose like a lot of weight. I've been eating fruit like constantly. eating like great and I feel so much. better because like the I drink water. till I'm blue in the face and I'm not. hydrated I eat fruits and [ __ ] like that.

it's like I feel like it just sticks to. your organs and like just well there's a. lot of lot of watermelon watermelon is. fantastic I love watermelon and apples. do you take um any sort of um. electrolytes do you I do I do I mean. regularly. um Gatorade I'm just trying to help you. with your hand yeah Gatorade but um. there's this other stuff I don't even. know what it's called but it's like a. powder it's like supposed to be less fat. and you just put it in your water and.

it's like an accelerator of the. hydration like liquid IV or something. like that something yeah I don't even. know there's a bunch of those that are. really good but yeah that's you know you. could you could take care of that like. obviously your fingers are still working. but if you're starting to feel like real. discomfort there's some things you could. do CBD is a big one CBD helps so much my. friend Dave Foley uh he uh had arthritis. to the point where his hands were like. totally Cur couldn't straighten his. hands out he started taking CBD and it. all went away that's crazy yeah the. benefits of. and it's incredible it really is.

incredible yeah the diet is a big one. too I think I'm getting my fair share of. uh CBD and T from the not just that not. from the flower but I I like edibles but. not like disate I know I'm into rosin. Edibles the the difference is the CPD. you can isolate just the CPD they can. make it much higher concentrates oh. really yeah like I love this [ __ ] when I. have muscle soreness is a CBD I'm no. affiliation cbdmd has this product.

called Freeze it's 3,000 milligrams CBD. it's a rollon it's a roll on so if you. have like sore muscles yeah all kind of. it's [ __ ] great I love it but they. have great gummies and oils and CBD is. Fant anytime you can eliminate. inflammation in your life that's good. yeah whether it's your personal life or. your body just eliminate all the inform. so many people tell me this wave of like. sea moss seos yeah like people like the. benefits of are you hearing about seos.

Jamie I've heard of it are you hearing. about people eating it. uh I don't know yeah I don't know I. haven't tried it but I'm a big believer. in rib eyes Yeah ribey medium rare love. salt butterflied with a Char yeah I'm. not really U into your sea moss no I've. never tried the [ __ ] but everybody like. you should do sea mooss most of that. [ __ ] is starvation food really. yeah people eat it when they couldn't.

find fish if you could find fish you ate. a [ __ ] fish why would you eat that. stupid. Moss that's I think that's what most. vegetables are most vegetables are. starvation food yeah I think uh I [ __ ]. with salads I actuallyy salads but I do. them I'm going to put dressing on it and. [ __ ] and like destroy it right some. ranch a little Caesar rbe I just like. oil and vinegar olive oil and vinegar is. all I like on salads but I like salads I. eat salads like I'm not like religious.

about it but I just I know that when I'm. only eating like meat and steak and eggs. I feel way better it just like. everything feels like it's in tune my. brain works better my body feels more. relaxed it's it's a tangible thing when. I eat a lot of [ __ ] I feel it dude I. met these coming from like being a. [ __ ] the middle of nowhere kid like. not a rich kid not part of like some. social light type [ __ ] I I came up to. like a certain level of people that was. like pretty insane like Russian.

multi-billionaires and what is that like. hanging around with those cats that's. [ __ ] bizarre but I be weird because. they'll get you. killed right it could happen yeah but. like I'm hanging out with this one guy. who's proba one of the richest man in. the world and we're eating borch he's. like. Scotty you should eat soup every day. it's good I know what I'm telling you. I'm like okay I eat a lot of soup soup's. good soup is VE best basic vegetable. juice saying like the hot broths and.

[ __ ] like that is just super good for. you you live longer bro I used to live. in Los Angeles I used to go to Jerry's. Famous Deli and geter and get their. chicken noodle soup they had that's good. oh my God their chicken noodle soup no. chives though I tell them do they put. chives in it normally the cherries does. yeah but I I like not a chives kind I. like Dill Dill Dill yeah like I got like. a Russian Nanny and different things. like that that work for me and they put. that fresh Dylan oh my God and that just.

Texas no right you hear chili you don't. hear soup you hear about their soup. queso queso that's kind of soup I had. the butternut squash soup where you put. me at last night at the Four Seasons and. that's just not my kind of it was good. but it's just not like it's not my. favorite it's basically vegetable juice.

that's where you're drinking hot. vegetable juice but course it's good for. you table cream all of right oh that. kind of stuff where they make the little. the white swirls on the top like it's a. latte yeah fancy yeah very fancy. Scott. so so yeah music we started like talking. about. how my music career evolves pop that mic. huh so earlier we were talking about. where did it start and I went all the. way back so.

now I'm hanging with this guy Richard. that my you know the videographer I was. saying that that I met in my dad's. office he took me and started. making an attempt. to professionalize myself as a musician. joined the roots we got a record. deal um. and I I loved it you know I was now like. a very like lucky guy to be involved in. something cool but I was bringing. something real major to the table within.

the group and I just felt like after a. while I wasn't. appreciated and that I was just going to. be remembered as the guy who played keys. for the roots like and I wanted more. than that I left the group for a. multitude of reasons some I usually. don't talk about but like I you know. boohoo I felt some Reverse Racism I know. that people have dealt with [ __ ] like. [ __ ] up [ __ ] and but I was just like. kind of mortified one time onest stage. and I just remember I'm performing with.

the roots at uh in New. York this event called The Black Lily. and playing the keyboards backing. everybody up and this and that and. somebody was. rapping they point at me the white devil. something I was just like uh what the. [ __ ] is happening here like I I'm they. serious I'm the most no no it was [ __ ]. up [ __ ] bro it really hurt me because. I'm like I don't see color I don't see. of that [ __ ] I'm the most like just.

coolest [ __ ] in that aspect like. to me racism bothers me but it was like. you know my my family now were not. representing for me and that that's let. that happened and then just combined. with so someone on the stage said that. yes one of the rappers I'm not going to. say names but just it [ __ ] was just like. how is this happening right now God damn. and you know I felt like all the. credit and for all the like Big Melodies. and stuff that was creating for the. group was just being swept under the rug.

and. like I said I got to leave this group. I'm dating this girl at the time who was. like urging me not to she was saying. you're going to be the Pete Best of The. Roots You know who Pete best is yeah the. beetle he left the Beatles yeah so she. was like you're going to be the Pete. Best of the root I was like that's cool. she actually dumped me oh that and uh. and I I I um continued on my. Journey attempting to be a music.

producer and not join bands and I met. this guy through the whole process of. being in the roots his name was Derek. Jackson and he and I he embraced me and. said you know you're so talented like. let's give it a go and we would take. these trips from Philly to New York and. just go to Every an anr every [ __ ] uh. label trying people that contacts that. this guy Derek had in New York he was. from New York um. you know like he would just use them and.

then the first week we were doing that. we got a couple of bites and one was my. first client was Buster Rhymes wow who. I'll never forget it Buster like. believed me he's like all right and I. went to the studio we made a record one. shot one kill baby that's how it is like. you get one shot you know it's not like. and we made blatow which was uh on his. album Anarchy um and uh we also got that. same week maybe three days.

later Capone in. norga and uh Cenna and the album you. know nory's got his like his like you. know his whole world in podcast now so. he's proud of that guy great guy but. yeah they believed in me and the day I. went in I'll never forget it Capone. whose partner was coming home from jail. that day and the theme of the day was I. guess he got him some girls and like. like on the way to the studio to come. work and now he's like all day he kept.

saying it's nothing it's nothing to come. home from jail with these girls in your. limousine and come work with me and. Scotty and this and that it was just. amazing day we made music we made like. three and then I was Off to the Races. man I was making music wow and uh a. whole bunch of cool stuff in between. there and then still ain't make no money. but I'm now like doing [ __ ] is that you. yeah let me shut this off isn't it funny. that that fear of like the the peep best.

type thing that's such a real thing in. the beginning you don't have any idea. what your future's going to be like did. I like and I would see [ __ ] on them like. they're appearing here they're doing. this and that and be like [ __ ] but what. did I do right I held in there and then. I'm always a lot of people say this but. I'm a [ __ ] very harmonious person I. always do good for everybody I never. like I I you can accuse me of being a. lot of things but being an [ __ ] I'm. not so when I was in uh my first trip to.

La all right I went to LA to perform and. I did this this uh Open Mic at the. martini lounge it was my first time ever. going to California and it was like it. was a Roots event I wasn't in the group. anymore but like whatever I had to do I. was going to make a few hundred bucks to. go play background on this on this thing. it wasn't the roots it was like an open. mic with PE random people coming and. this okay so I did this.

thing and who do I see come up to me but. a chick I knew from Philly and she was. like storage show up what up she's like. you're not GNA believe this but I signed. a record deal with Dr Dre in aftermath. and I like wow that's. crazy so she she's like I'm gonna hook. you up with Dre you're always [ __ ]. good to me and Philly and you never. tried to smash you let me go in the. studio and we did cool stuff together. and like it was a platonic thing like if. she was my home girl and um sure enough.

I go and I meet up with Trey I'm waiting. for him to come out I'm in the lobby. like nervous as hell I don't have. anything to play for him I have my. fingers that's about it and uh I go into. a. room. and he sits me down he's like I hear you. good at them keys I start playing for. him and this and that he's real quiet. and just like listening I'm like ah you. nothing's coming from this I'm. I'm going to go home sad today he leaves.

I don't know if I should be just leaving. or I'm supposed to stay in here and this. dude Larry Chapman is like one of his. like head dudes comes back in Dre wants. you to stay here for a long time going. to get you a hotel and here's some money. it was like was like really okay Dre. wants you to stay here for a long time. yeah he was just like like let me know. Dre want you here man like you can stay.

you know what I'm talking about and I. played a little keys on that over there. the next day me and Dre went in to work. on his project and we made big egos. which made it to that's like that one. shot one kill thing like that first day. worked out it led to me being along. Dre's you know side and in his his uh. camp for a very long time but there's. just a handful of dudes like you out. there in the world that I call like a. musical magician. you know there's there's people that.

Freedom bong it's like a eagle [ __ ]. you're drinking the beer out of and we. we talked about doing one from Mara Lago. we might do that still that's cool I'm. supposed to go there I think I'm going. go there for us uh on the 13th they're. doing some kind of um event like a. roaring 20s Vibe dinner and then like a.

whole weekend of of Roaring 20s like. like you wear the outfits I'm not. goingon to but like I wear one of them. outfits that be bad what did they wear. was like a roaring 20s outfit zoot suit. I would imagine as like a dou breasted. yeah like the peaky blinders what those. dudes weree what do they wear in the 20s. the Shel zoot suits. man what do they. wear Roaring 20s men. you go oh yeah oh that looks slick it.

was hats look at that they all wore hats. is that crazy luano [ __ ] going on isn't. that crazy that like nice hats just went. away we were talking about that the. other day we were watching an old school. fight with Jack Johnson and every man on. the street like waiting in line for the. fight all the people in the audience for. the fight all of them had fancy hats on. men used to just wear fancy hats. something happened fancy hats just fell. apart like if you were in the fancy hat. business in 1920 be like bro we got it.

forever like fancy hats ain't going away. but fancy hats completely [ __ ] what. if you wear a couple companies a friend. of mine was wearing a hat he like you. know this hat is like four gr I'm like. it's like some fancy company they got. I'm sure this companies but it's not. like they everybody's like baseball hats. everybody buys baseball hats you know. but fancy hats they just went away if. you would ask those fancy hat people do. you think one day the president will be. wearing a baseball hat or a fancy hat. they be like a fancy hat he's the. [ __ ] president nope make America.

great again y baseball hat with a suit. on it's crazy fancy hats just fell out. of style yeah I think um you can't bring. it back either it's become a much more. casual world I believe and it's like I. mean sometimes I always [ __ ] like ah. people knew how to dress when we used to. go out I would put on a sport coat and. where you know but like at the end of. the day like it's all [ __ ] yeah it's. all [ __ ] it's nice to dress up. sometimes it's a pain in the ass. sometimes pain the ass lately I've just. been changing my whole fashion ways like.

a friend of mine said something um he's. like even though I have nice things like. he's like you don't need a. Ferrari be the Ferrari you walk in a. room is a [ __ ] you're on South Beach. and all these [ __ ] guys that barely. have a pot to piss in are getting out of. the lambo and the [ __ ] uh valet and. the Iced Out and [ __ ] like I'm the king. of that [ __ ] I was filthy rich and did. all that [ __ ] and I might as well have. just landed a [ __ ] spaceship on top.

of the club like I was doing everything. but lately I just it turns me off I look. at myself and I look like a I feel like. a poser like I feel like the richest guy. in the room is wearing [ __ ] a [ __ ]. a be bones no diamonds type [ __ ] like. well look at Elon Musk yeah dude wears. occupy Mars t-shirts doesn't even have a. watch yep you know just so that's the. hanging that's where I'm at you don't I. think what happens is in the beginning. you want every know you're doing well so. you have all your stuff on you you dress.

real nice you know like wow Scott looks. good he looks sharp but then when you're. undeniable you reach a point in your. life where you just like what am I who. am I doing this for this is stupid if. you're like me and you have a point in. your life where you had a100 million do. and you were trying to impress everybody. and you [ __ ] didn't have any respect. for Buddy like my Financial Manager. walked away from me back in the day said. you're unmanageable why you going crazy. I was going I was spending so much money. look you're still here y I had fun I had. had a good time bet had a good time but.

when you lose everything yeah you want. to like fake it and be like oh no I. still got it and like I'm the guy with. the most obnoxious set of diamonds and. I'm broke as [ __ ] cuz I just wanted to. look the heart my ego wouldn't let me. like go with that [ __ ] that's a negative. feedback loop cuz that doesn't feed into. art either it's the opposite it doesn't. I had all of that I had to like really. take it back to nothing like I don't. care about labels and [ __ ] I like nice. things. look not I don't like have to do the.

pullup on the club but look there's. nothing wrong with a [ __ ] 911 like. just a great car like yeah there's. amazing engine anything yeah like I do. it for me now like whatever I do and um. I'm just like I'm really getting into my. music I'm getting into a lot of things I. appreciate both things I appreciate. people who dress real nice and I. appreciate people who don't give a [ __ ]. I think there's a place for everybody. happy medium yeah and then the stuff. stuff is not life life is not your stuff.

no but some stuff is [ __ ] cool hell. yeah like Cat Williams when he was here. he wasn't even living here or staying. here and somehow or another he got an. electric Rolls-Royce so he's here me. he's here for a day to do a show and. wasn't he doing a show somewhere else or. something like an arena. somewhere but one of the things he said. he said when you're sitting in this car. you know where you spent your. money cuz it's like it's you you go oh I. know why this is is $600,000 look how. [ __ ] amazing this thing is lights on.

the ceiling I love nice things I just. like them for different reasons right. you don't like them for showing off you. like them because you like them because. they're awesome yeah there's nothing. wrong with luxury yes there's nothing. wrong with luxury you work hard but the. problem is you trying to show everybody. your luxury instead of just enjoying it. like look in my car or prioritizing it. before your children or before things. like before anything before anything. before food yeah it shouldn't come. before anything it should be just a fun.

thing and when you get to a level of. success that you're at if you don't. figure that out that's when it's the. saddest when someone makes a ton of. money and doesn't go oh it's not about. the things it's about the relationships. that I have it's about my friends it's. about my loved ones my family it's about. the people that I work with it's about. everybody having a good time it's about. let's all get together and break bread. and eat and and hug each other and tell. each other we love each other and do. great work and have a good time just. enjoy this life experience that's the.

thing that's the thing the car is just. like look that's cool dude icing yeah if. you pull up in a cool car I'm like check. it out that is all some people have to. offer in their like life and like they. think that that is great well you know. that the problem is that's seemingly the. most unattainable thing when you're. broke and you see some guy pulls up in a. a brand new 911 you're like what the. [ __ ] this is yours it's it's mindblowing. I had Bugattis and all kinds of [ __ ] I. mean I had everything I won for the best. car collection on [ __ ] MTV Cribs I I.

had like 26 cars bro if you name I had. like10 million cars wow like crazy [ __ ]. like I'm an idiot but at any rate yeah. but those are fun too you can afford it. no yeah but I lived a Billionaire's Life. as a millionaire I had 100 million I. thought I said 100 billion in my account. I thought there was ex to zero but. recently I met a guy he just met Kevin. Kevin is a [ __ ] like just a great.

person I I had met him years and years. ago he was the head of security for 50. Cent and when he he brought 50 to my. house to do the candy shop okay and. that's where I met him but I lost touch. with him for so many years and just you. know not so long ago just REM met him at. this studio this guy BB at Circle house. said yo I got you got this guy wants to. you met him before but he wants to meet. you. he's. now the owner of um uh the Platinum.

Security Group which is like one of the. largest corporate security companies in. the nation like this guy owns so much. real estate owns half a poker ratton. he's like a major freaking guy and he. like we started he wanted to you. initially hire me to do some music for. some artists and he had a record label. and we ended up partnering on that. record label and partnering on these. different type things that were you know. different projects and [ __ ] that we're. doing and um he is like yo first of all.

you need to get the [ __ ] out of Miami. and I want you to move an hour north to. bokeh so you can focus and really make. the music and stop worrying about. because Miami like start slipping into. my old ways and girls are every day it. show up and it's a Cess poool bro and. it's so much fun and it's so [ __ ] up. and there's so much ass and there's so. much drugs and there's so much. everything. and it's like [ __ ] that you should have. to have a passport to go to Miami right.

that is not America that's some new. thing that's some new thing Miami is. wild it's good to go there you need to. [ __ ] be there but like the energy in. that place an hour down the road is. beautiful Waterfront living and normaly. and just far enough to where the garbage. is not going to like hit you every day. you can get there if you want yeah but. yeah you're outside that's what I think. attack from the outside move up here I. did that and follow this lead so many.

great things are happening yeah even. just like unlocking you know how you. block your blessings like I was blocking. my blessings and now they're starting to. come I'm here with you talking and. telling my story and like like things. like that are happening great things I. have um an artist that um you know I'm. working on I have my album I decided. like you know how khed makes album he's. got all these different people and like. I'm like you know what I'm going to like. I've made my whole life life of us. making hit records for labels and for.

their artists why not develop artists. and do my own album and use some of. those artists for my projects and um. yeah I'm putting out a slew of. singles um this girl Abby stare that. Kevin introduced me to is like so. amazing I think there might be a picture. somewhere of that uh I was told like. because I'm I'm using her for my single. for my first single like even though you. know we're going to be developing her.

album and um but I'm doing my single. featuring her and then a whole bunch of. other ones that I'm going to be putting. out I have one with young blue and um. tons I have tons of singles um but yeah. we have this song and um yeah I'm. excited man like I'm doing the things I. always wanted to do I'm I'm taking like. fullon uh initiative now and you think. moving an hour outside Miami was a big. part of that. I think yeah in order to like just. balance yeah balance myself you need.

balance man you need to be able to go. hard but you need to be able to recover. relax and focus you need privacy you. need Solitude so you could think. everybody needs that you need balance in. your life if you don't you just go you. lean in One Direction you want it's like. it's like your body you only work out. your biceps your [ __ ] your hips are. going to go some something's going to go. wrong you're going to [ __ ] your body up. with imbalance you're going to [ __ ] your. life up with imbalance everything needs. some sort of a balance B and everybody's. balance is different you know for a guy.

like you who goes hard you probably. should get the [ __ ] out of Miami you. probably should be living in bokeh right. with all the quiet people yep and I'm. loving it if I need to go to Miami I'm. one hour go to Miami one hour [ __ ] it. how hard is that I love Florida this is. a [ __ ] crazy ass place it is crazy. ass place filled with reptiles yeah. right and they literally were walking. around on your Dock and there's so many. think Iguana's like giant iguana is. falling out of trees when it gets cold. out yeah it's funny as [ __ ] it's just.

such a [ __ ] up place but it's so fun. there so many good things and during the. pandemic I think people started to. really appreciate Florida like so many. people moved down there they're like hey. you can just just live here you don't. have to just be under the tyrannical. control of the government look the. Northeast was a great place to as a as a. young guy to build strength and the. changing of the season and scraping the. ice off your [ __ ] windshield. Lear about being a man Timberland boots.

cuz you're [ __ ] freezing C and I. think I think every young person should. have to like experience that 100% not. just like. sunshine I grew up in Boston yeah and um. you know it's cold as [ __ ] in the winter. when when I was a kid we made money by. shovel and snow and that you know that's. back breaking [ __ ] work shoveling. long steep driveways and [ __ ] for a. hundred bucks yeah you know but if if. you could do that and do that all the.

time like you build resolve you're out. there freezing your hands are numb you. know we play outside in the snow your. [ __ ] hands would go down you come in. you can't feel your feet makes you. stronger it makes you stronger scraping. the ice off your windshield before you. go to work yeah salting the [ __ ] uh. the walk I feel bad for people that. don't grow up in those environments. because I really think it gives you a. little extra Edge and those changing of. seasons is amazing it's different. feelings different moods all my favorite. iians for the most well that's not true. I was going to say that but then Kennis.

he was from Texas Sam yeah but that was. different that dude was that's a. different thing I always think about. back to school I think about why my mind. just goes right there was he right was. he right I was. there that dude is awesome yeah he was. awesome I have an appreciation for film. I have an appreciation for comedians. like I like I really like I grew up like. D I was buying Like Richard albums as a. kid and Eddie Murphy albums and you know.

I spent a lot of times I became good. friends with Mike EPS I became a lot of. comedians comedians are tortured Souls. you guys like I think a lot of like that. whole comedy tragedy thing is like very. serious well there's something for for. many yeah there's something to that but. it's you just got to figure out how to. balance it like we were talking about. before for me uh I Balan it out with. exercise exercise and saunas and cold. plunges and yoga and [ __ ] like that. that's how I balance it out that's how I. keep my mind straight but if I didn't I.

would be spiraling just like all of them. I think you you you need something in. your life that's more difficult than. your life something that you do that you. choose to do that's more difficult in. regular life because then it makes. regular life way more manageable MH well. it's kind of cool I'm 50 and I'm like. inspired like when I was in my early 20s. and just like doing the music music and. it's like sometimes I get reminded of.

like the fact you know like when you're. trying to like keep up like there's a. session like and you're going to have to. go meet little baby at 3: in the morning. it's. like okay [ __ ] it I just do it I just. have to compensate for it I could have. just went for days back in the day right. without drugs you know what I'm saying. like so now it's like all right I'm. going to sleep real late cuz I'm going. to have to go at 3:00 in the morning so. is that like a standard thing like what. like when rappers come and they want to. work with you do they generally want to.

work late at night rappers yeah yes they. all want to work late at night and my. biggest problem. is I know I can't always tell them that. like sometimes you should just send them. CDs and [ __ ] but I know when you get in. a room and you make some [ __ ] right. there on the spot for somebody and. you're feeling their energy that's when. the best records happen yes these dudes. like a lot of dudes are not like with it. but there's some are that's the extra. magic right yeah I think the best. artists want that the ones that aren't.

really artists they just want some. [ __ ] to rap on some more [ __ ]. but it's there's something you're. exchanging something as human beings. right you're you're with with that. person you're experiencing them they're. experiencing you the music the song. everything together the lyrics There's. that's a human experience that's why. like I refuse to do Zoom podcasts like. some people in other countries they. wanted to be on a screen and just sit in. the living room you got to fly here bro. you got to you got to be in the room.

I'll give you a perfect. example I got a call a week ago. FaceTime um and it was jcole I seen on. my phone and like I was chilling like I. was like oh [ __ ] jcole and um my. neighbor thinking selling dope he says. he says he says yo. Storch I figured out a way that I can. harness that Storch thing you're in. Florida I'm flying there so I'm I'm.

going home from this tomorrow he's going. to be there the next day we're going to. be working in the Hit Factory but he. gets it like we were just listening to. Neighbors in the green room last night. we were all going [ __ ] I. am so I'm excited I'm excited when. somebody wants to get in the room and. they have yeah an idea of like what they. feel like out of the Scott stor bag of. tricks like they want to like harness or. Encompass in life well you're also a guy. guy that like you find out you're. working with Scott Storch that day.

everybody gets fired up so there like a. fe cuz youve had so much success that. this is like excitement about you and. you're in the room and that creates like. additional like inspiration y I can bu. all to all clients because if somebody's. going to be in a room when I'm not there. and they're like this is the one Scott. Storch did that [ __ ] had better if I. like the artist or I don't like whatever. the hell it is they have to be like yo. that beat is [ __ ] flam like so I give. my all the [ __ ] and for some reason man.

like I said like I just this is one of. the few things I can just do over and. over again I do it good I give results. nothing always sounds the same if. somehow I managed to pull it off and. it's like I just remember Dr Dre telling. me. yo because his work ethic is crazy he. says you don't have to be on every day. just most. days and it stuck with me and I was like. yeah man like you know you got to be. known for being the guy that hit home. runs almost every time not every time.

but almost every time well when you're. dealing with something that involves. creativity you it can't be every day. it's not possible you're asking too much. of the Muse yeah you but that's also the. problem with like being a workaholic. you're going hard all the time you're. you're constantly working and you're. going to have your hits and you're going. to have your misses and that's just a. part of the process I go hard with. everything that I do whether it be a bad. thing or a good thing yeah yeah like I. most people do I got like you know the.

same energy I give to that to the music. and [ __ ] I was given to like the wrong. things for a while a good friend of mine. we were talking about a buddy of ours. that died he died from uh pills and uh. he was super clean he was a professional. pool player like a really like. worldclass pool player super clean never. did anything never drank never smoked. got in a car accident [ __ ] his back up. started getting on pills and pain pills. to him he chased pain pills the way he. chased being the best in the world at. pool the same thing that got him to be a.

wizard at playing pool that same. Obsession for him down that same. Obsession got wrapped up in the pills. and he died he died. young and we were talking about him like. that is what it is that's that's where. Obsession and addiction cross paths one. can serve you one can ruin you and there. there're the same energy it's just how. you channel the fire you can channel the. fire to Wood and cook your food or you. can Channel it to your house and now. you're [ __ ] like where do you put the.

fire how do you how do you direct it and. if you direct it the right way you can. have an amazing life and do all kinds of. cool [ __ ] and have a great time and meet. cool people and have a fun life or you. could do it the wrong way and just be on. Skid Row yeah covered in SC it's hard to. balance sometimes things that are take. over your soul like pills and [ __ ] like. that later I want to talk to you about I. got into like the the business of rehab. not for money I got into the business of. rehab to help people but but that's. later um honestly like I got my whole.

life was just all music music music I. loved music I loved going in my [ __ ]. car and just listening to the things I. love like music I love music of the 70s. and I love Marvin Gay I like all this. [ __ ] I love Marvin incredible music. earthwind in fires and this that like I. just that's where it all comes from so I. base my music on the past 50 years of. music 100 Years of music and um I was. doing good I smoked pounds of weed made.

my music lived a very healthy life and. became very rich and I was in a bubble. for so long that one day I'm living in a. house that uh um vka Trump recently just. bought was my house on Indian Creek. Island okay which I owned outright I. bought the [ __ ] house for cash from. the um Widow of the founder of Southern. Wine and Spirits and I bought this house.

[ __ ] massive topiary Gardens and. incredible thing I was living a healthy. life and I wasn't in my mind like cool. but I was like happy I was cool that was. as cool as it gets because I was. balanced and healthy and doing what I. love to do but I felt like I was. yearning for some something bad or I. don't know what I was yearning for but. the girl ended up showing up at my. doorstep very famous.

girl and look I'm not playing the G the. blame game or anything but it's just a. course of events happen Paris Hilton. shows up at my door initially to work on. music and we ended up connecting. and I learned this whole new way of life. like with Paparazzi and being like next. to her and. then excuse me a L hooking up with her. and we're now an item and [ __ ] and we're.

you. know kind of like we're having tons of. fun we're good friends but I think we're. both using each other in a certain way. like where I'm like like so excited to. be next to this girl who's like the. coolest most famous girl in the world. she's like my girl and like she's next. to she her passion was at that time. music and she was like next to me who. I'm the number one music producer in the. world the time and um it went on and.

then inevitably the NTI led to. [ __ ] cocaine and. that she don't lie she don't lie first. year year and a half going here on. planes and San Trope and St bards and. the flyest [ __ ] you could do and flyest. the best [ __ ] Coke and all all that. [ __ ] just Happ blast and then it just. goes bad and then it's just like you.

have a relation you've seen the movie. Blow and oh yeah you've seen how hot. Penelope Cru and do were like in the. beginning they like into each other then. it just comes of course all like there's. no happy ending your foundation gets. rotted out under you yeah and like my. A-list. life was like you know was born there. and like I was now like in that. situation and then ended up with Kim. Kardashian and all these different. things and like she wasn't even famous.

at that point but like you know she's. cool man she's always been a great. person and like first the I gained a lot. of respect for her when she started. working for criminal and prison reform. yeah that's it just shows like she's. that shits on the heart too she's. advocacy for people that are wrongfully. accused yeah man she's done a lot of. good things she's that lady has gotten a. lot of people out of jail yeah I look as. long as I've known Kim she's never been. anything but just super sweet person and. awesome I met her before the fame like I.

we dated before the fame and you know I. just I was a hot mess like I was the. [ __ ] up one when we were together like. I just was not focused I was just. thinking about strippers and drugs and. this and that it was just at I was still. on a high level but I was living a. [ __ ] up life I had a session now I I. moved to Palm Island from Indian Creek. because because everything I was doing I. was trying to impress Paris and like I.

knew that everybody wanted to be on Star. Island and Palm Island and like close to. the party South Beach was it was South. Beach South Beach right I didn't know. that where I was living already was the. big daddy like those houses you have to. be a you everybody's there like BOS. everybody's there now like where I was. I'm I moved to this house on Palm Island. I go from a 90 foot yacht to a much. bigger yach I take these leaps just. trying to impress her just below her. mind even though she didn't need that. but um I was doing it yeah it was all.

some weird mental like thing like I felt. a lot of people get caught in that. spiral when they start making money I. didn't want to be famous I wanted to be. the most famous I wanted to be the. biggest boss not just a boss I had to be. that guy boy and when I lost everything. it was like it's bad news and lud I had. Janet Jackson at my house to do a. session pre or post nipple at the Super. Bowl I don't even remember I don't. remember the nipples but I remember this. sweet cool lady when I met Janet I was.

told to not even like really like talk. to her like more like like talk to like. somebody and like you know it was like. it was like a for real like yeah it was. like pass your message and tell this. person and they're going to like relay. it like even in the same room like to. the point where within a few hours when. you're collaborating with music just for. the first few like minutes this happened. and then. like dude we became like homies like we. was like immediate like I was like like. [ __ ] that well sometimes it's the. handlers that [ __ ] things I've seen. people that they they give themselves.

extra importance by like saying if you. want to talk to her you have to talk to. me first like you know that kind of. creating a Dr for themselves and. creating like a little bit of insecurity. on your part too like uh don't address. Miss Jackson right address me I'll. address Mrs Jackson that's exactly and. probably she might not even know about. all D we were by the end of the day I. was like you know I always smoking my I. was smoking my weed and she was like I. was telling her about the different sign. I had and these these New York plastic. jars and this and that and like just.

cool as hell but Flash Forward so now. she's coming to to Palm Island to work I. left her at my house for like seven or. eight hours because I wanted to go to. the gold rush and go get some blow and. hang out with strippers it was just like. are you [ __ ] serious like you're. really GNA do that like you don't see it. at the time because it's out of your. [ __ ] mind you're out of your [ __ ]. mind out of my mind out of my tits It's. just. when you have so much money and you have. power and fame it's like you have too.

much possibility there's too many things. that can entice you and if you're doing. blow and going to strip clubs all the. time it's just like more titties in my. face please like let's keep doing it. let's keep partying let's stay up. selfish it's and it's and you're not. thinking about it because your what do. he saying Good Fellas ah your brain's. going to Mush it's in Balance it's true. it's inbalance it's like what we were. talking about you need a balance the a. list parties turn to Bist parties the. beist turns to se list the SE list turns. to [ __ ] Street urchins you know what.

I mean I remember I've had some [ __ ]. funny moments though like I remember. having a party it was like a Super Bowl. party I had like seven or 800 people at. my house and like everybody's like. fizzling out it's now like 9 in the. morning 10 in the morning I think Snoop. was there Mike EPS was there different. people were hanging out lingering. chilling like family people now now it's. like friends and [ __ ] and like there's a. knock on my door at like 10:00. a.m. and it's Pamela.

Anderson and that [ __ ] was the funniest. [ __ ] in my house living with me at that. time was one of my favorite. people and. um I knew he was upstairs like sleeping. or whatever my good friend DMX God Rest. his soul and um pamin was showing up and. I was like yo ex yo ex check this out I. was all geeked out I'm like soop I think. it's so funny that I got Pamela coming. to my house at 10:00 in the morning and. he comes over the the um the railing of.

my house and he's like looks over he's. like bayw watch and then he just walk. back away walk back in the [ __ ] thing. okay X was like X was living with me man. and like it was like the blind leading. the blind I'm a Coke addict and he was a. crack addict and I'm like trying to help. him I'm like man you really need to get. clean. man like what the [ __ ] is really. yeah so I'm like yo you need to go to. rehab I'm like um so I I get him I.

convince him like to avoid like a jail. sentencing for something a charge he had. whatever he went to rehab and like was. getting his [ __ ]. together the place that I had gone that. didn't really work for me but I had him. there I really did care about him I. wanted him off that [ __ ] like whatever. that was like a worse evil or a faster. suicide than I was even on and um he ran. out of the place I got a call from him. the place was directly across the street.

from Hard Rock in Hollywood Florida and. he's like calls me he's like yo what's. up I'm like how are you calling me you. don't have phone privileges like that in. his face he's like I'm across the street. from the rehab at the Hard Rock with one. of the nurses and like I'm like oh my. God are you [ __ ] kidding me I was. like yo. ex cover yourself up come back to my. house I'm going to talk to these people. let you back in and they wouldn't let. him back in it was like real tough. [ __ ] to own this place and he. ended up cuz it was court ordered he had.

to go away I'm at the monton one morning. a couple days later and my security is. like yo Doug there's 50 federal agents. here w w wo like crazy [ __ ] bro it was. like I couldn't believe it I felt. horrible and then you flash forward to. not so long. ago I was heavily involved in a rehab. center in um in California in Studio. City where we used cannabis for. healing and it came to my attention that.

he was on his last legs X was in bad. shape so. um I was able to make a meeting happen. my uh partner Steve Lael I if you know. who Steve Lael is um managed Bone Thugs. and Harmony and all these people like. real legend um we were Partners on this. place and uh we had X come in and he had. inasa he was one rock away from Death.

like you know that kind of thing so we. convinced him we put him on a private. plane to Washington to do a detox he. went he went through the whole detox and. his plan was to leave the detox and come. to our facility impatient and do rehab. he never made it back on the plane to. head back and we never saw him again oh. like I was me trying to save a man's. life I really loved man he was like such.

a special guy but like such a special. performer man there's there's one of the. greatest ever do it oh without a doubt. without a doubt the power that that guy. had in his voice it was amazing but wild. people make wild [ __ ] and I'm one of. them sometimes you can't control it. can't calculate or yeah I mean going. back to Kennison I mean that did him and. when I mean he died in car accident in. it but mean his he was falling apart cuz. it was all. cocaine cocaine and drinking and uh the.

wildest of the Wilds all get caught up. in that life cuz it's you you escape. yourself it's an Escape I was just about. to say yeah it's an Escape the. difference between enjoying yourself and. an escape is but bro like the come down. like after like cuz after a while like. that like getting [ __ ] up and going to. sleep doesn't work it's like it's like. now you want to go for two days or three. days the way you feel at the end of that. run it's no good bro it's like it's just.

no good well you're closing in on death. yeah that's the reality you do down. people don't like to think that but if. you're up for two days you're about four. days away from Death yeah you keep that. up for four days you're going to die. you'll stroke out you'll have a heart. attack something will go wrong you'll. pop something will go off yeah when. you're you're you'll get emphas or. you'll get pneumonia you'll get. something horrible because your your. immune system's destroyed yeah but it's. it's like wild people make wild [ __ ] and. do you get a DMX without drugs I don't.

it's like you call it sex drugs a rock. and roll Rockstar [ __ ] whatever you want. to call it I don't know if you get those. people I don't know if you get Hendrick. without acid I don't know if you get it. I don't know if you get it I don't know. if you get it without heroin I don't. know maybe I'm so lucky because now I. finally realize and like. understand like all the things you're. saying about you can just die and like I. get it now and I'm like I'm not doing. that and like I lived it though and I. got to experience but the music is still. fertile and like I'm still doing my.

thing because a lot of those memories. and things oh bro you made it through. yeah you made it through you you made it. through you're alive you're healthy. you're lucky you're blessed [ __ ]. lucky as H lucky as [ __ ] and it's just. like that's the dance man the dance is. how much wild do you let in your life. and if you don't let any. in you might be little sterile you might. be boring as [ __ ] your your art might. suck I made it out alive all my favorite. artists are a little off the rails and. always have been from my favorite.

writers to my favorite musicians I mean. so many of my favorite musicians D. young Hendrick's probably one of my. all-time favorites but like that's a. great example you know Jim Morrison. Janice Joplin all these people died. young man Kirk Cain died young because. they went too [ __ ] hard too wild too. wild out of the gate Amy wi house too. wild dealing with stuff that like it's. not like you could just be an organ. organized drug addict like some people. just have less of an addictive. personality but like if you the [ __ ].

just takes over yeah it takes over and. again if you're living that there you go. if if you're living that wild life it's. like there's no one telling you to stop. there's no one telling you slow down you. have all the money in the world like. what what who the [ __ ] are you why are. you telling me to slow down yeah [ __ ]. out of here I just did the star spangle. Banner with my teeth get the [ __ ] off. the stage right see him do that ever SE. Hendrick do the star banner with his. teeth bro that [ __ ] yeah I'm I'm.

told I'm one of the only guys who could. play like music and smoke weed at the. same. time I don't know how they play music. and sing at the same time I. um I'm I met this guy post Malone part. of his business team like him and Dre. London this guy Austin Rosen Austin. rosen's a [ __ ] awesome dude like he. owns a electric field. entertainment post all these guys Lou.

Bell they're all part of like some of. the. most talented and like just one of the. coolest things going on in music are. these guys so I wanted to make a life. story like. biopic I was going to do something I had. one idea I was going to do and then he. was like Austin says dude I want you to. go meet this guy name's Charles Roven he. owns Atlas entertainment I don't know if.

you're familiar with Atlas but they made. like one of the biggest movie producers. in the history of movies he did like. suicide squad that whole series The Dark. Knight um Oppenheimer like some of the. craziest movies the list just goes on. I'm like oh [ __ ] this guy makes. Blockbusters he was going to make my. movie was like like listen just go meet. him see what happens I meet the guy and. I go in his office I'm like so nervous.

he says to me I don't like you very much. especially from what I read but if I. Like You by the end of this meeting I. think we'll make a movie what does that. mean I don't like you very much. especially from what I read because like. you know there's some [ __ ] up [ __ ]. like you know like oh tabloid type [ __ ]. yeah but a lot of it's [ __ ] like. course it is it made me look a certain. way but meanwhile me and him ended up. really seeing eye to eyee and I was able. to. articulate why a lot of these things. happened there was one.

interview I missed because I wasn't even. told about it and apparently it was. rescheduled three times and then I was. told about it and I unfortunately had to. reschedule it guy wrote the most. horrible story about me it was a cover. of a magazine and it was me covered with. blood all over my face and just making. me just look like [ __ ] Hitler and um. you know it couldn't be any further from. the truth like I yeah I made big. mistakes but I did it I was the nicest.

person giving I would give the shirt off. my back any person that ever stopped me. in the streets to like get a picture. like I'm gonna ask him how their day was. like you know what I'm saying like I'm. that guy I'm very very thorough and very. consistent with all well that doesn't. sell yeah what sells is you're the worst. piece of [ __ ] of all time oh my God let. me read about this piece of [ __ ] so and. that's that's a horrible thing that. journalist do for money they make these. pieces where they completely distort a. person's Essence and they only do it for.

money yeah they're just like emotional. hit people let's not talk about. everything that I left my footprint in. the [ __ ] world but at any rate yeah. right let's just talk about negative. things and only from a very distorted. perspective selfish life is nuanced and. B and it's weird life is [ __ ] crazy. yeah and sometimes people make mistakes. but it's not their whole being yeah and. to try to like condense a person down to. like tabloid headlines like that's the. essence of the person that's crazy.

that's like the least compassionate the. the the least kind way of looking at. human beings it's that's not how human. beings are we're complicated that's why. those little hit pieces they're gross. and they don't really work cuz people. know that they know that a there's. probably a lot more to this like why is. this why is this so negative like this. is not a balanced who that person is I'm. a complex if I was in a movie but of. course you are you're an artist every. artist is complex I've never met one.

that isn't well a very very raw and. real uh look at my life is happening now. with Atlas entertainment we're making a. movie major movie who's going to play. you it's got to be several mes. because my span of my career starts. ultimately I'm a kid I'm already a kid. maybe they use CGI turn you into a kid. you could play yourself they can do wild.

I didn't want to be involved in. production writing or acting or I needed. to be respected and real raw like it's. not going to make me look like the. greatest guy it's not going to make me. look like a bad guy it's just going to. make me look like who I was you know. what I mean do you have any say in like. cuz one of the things that drives me. nuts is when there's a movie and no one. was there and you see like this. historical figure say some things and. you're like well how do I he didn't. really say that some [ __ ] writer. wrote that [ __ ] this is not a real. conversation SP a lot of time with writ.

this guy Dan is freaking amazing. talented guy and um yeah everything is. going to be cool if I have my way I have. an 18-year-old son who's literally me. who I make all of my music with this kid. jayen he's my son and he's like one of. my best friends was like when Ice Cube. son played him and this kid looks just. like me and the time I was his age acts. just like me perfect to a point where. it's not even normal so I can't think of.

anybody better but we we'll get to that. I'm not saying he's going to but I would. I would love for that to be and I think. anybody could see that this kid's. capable yeah and and he is me he's like. you feel me like my mouth every like. different [ __ ] things like yeah but. but it's weird when someone's alive and. someone's playing that person who's. alive and you know like oh that's not. really Scott Storch you know what you. mean weird it's like a movie about you. and you remember when Michael J white. played Mike Tyson you know and Mike.

Tyson was I mean they were friends they. were cool with each other but like that. had to be weird you're playing a dude. who's still alive Mike Tyson's a special. guy he's a very special guy he's a very. good friend of mine I'm glad he got. through that fight and didn't get hurt. yeah that's what I was I was hoping he. would knock Jake Paul out just because. that's the Cinderella story not I don't. have anything against Jake Paul I like. Jake Paul I think what he's doing is. genius I think what he's doing is like I. mean he's got he's making insane amounts. of money he's having a great [ __ ].

time he's a legit boxer he's absolutely. a legit box yeah you can't hate on. somebody that works that hard you cannot. I would never hate if you do you're an. idiot no I watch I was like you know. what this guy is [ __ ] really driven. him and his brother they're like driven. like it's not all everybody starts. somewhere you know what I'm saying like. so they were YouTubers or they were on. Disney Channel who cares do with it but. but the reality is Mike is 58 years old. and I was worried yeah you know I just I. love that guy and he was a hero of mine. when I was a kid so to see him you know. 58 years old fighting part of me was.

like [ __ ] fought a lot of the same. demons and we were there for each other. like in a lot of ways like i' I talked. to him like pretty deep conversations. with Mike and he he actually checks on. me and like yo you good like and I do. the same and my friend Rick like we're. all like kind of like that's beautiful. yeah like that's beautiful he's a. beautiful person he really is man for a. guy who's the most terrifying fighter of. all time he's a really nice guy to be. around I felt like I was in the [ __ ]. movie Hangover one time like cuz I was. hanging out with him in Vegas I remember.

we're cruising around in my [ __ ]. Bentley main at the time and he's like. yo I want to let's go jam out like we. went to the Palms from my hotel to the. Palms and we rented the studio there. just so I could play piano we're jamming. out playing like old records and [ __ ] aw. but just cruising around Vegas I was. like damn it's like [ __ ] hangover. that's awesome it's great dude man Vegas. is a great example of a place where you. have to have balance in yeah it's like. living in Miami to me you live in Vegas. you should probably live in.

Henderson live live out. there exactly live close to the. mountains out there like don't be right. in the middle of all that attack it from. the outside that's what I did in La when. I lived in La I lived like an hour. outside La I never lived I did when I. first moved there and then I slowly. started moving further and further away. till I got about hour I am not. comfortable in La anymore I used to be. it's CRA I sleep with one eye open yeah. I sold my house I got rid of that. [ __ ] place in the valley I was just.

home invasions everywhere it's crazy. it's like what they've done to that City. in a short M amount of time is shocking. I never thought it would go that bad. that fast and it's the way it is now. it's bizarre yeah the the the uh I. always say that it's like a girl that. used to date she was really cute but now. she does meth and she works for the. cartel like what happened to you the. pandemic happened you just remember her. from when she was so sweet and cool yeah. well the pandemic was the the reason why.

the government was able to [ __ ] up that. City it's the pandemic was just that was. their way to [ __ ] up the city dude there. were stacks of bricks yeah on the street. that came from stacks of bricks that. somebody left there hoping someone would. throw through Windows starting riots and. that's a weirdo [ __ ] bro it's corre it's. like I spooky and scary it's spooky I. don't like to go full Batman on this but. it's like there like there's evil. villains out there that are pulling the. strings of the world and that's real.

those [ __ ] protests are organized man. people spend a lot of money to organize. those things and then put bricks out the. whole thing was designed to disrupt. society and then the defund the police. [ __ ] how anybody bought into that is. so crazy reform the police yeah train. the police better yeah but defund them. are you let's just all not be safe. because are you out of your [ __ ] mind. do you not know the law of the Jungle do. you not know the real streets let me. know when your house gets robbed you. wanted [ __ ] [ __ ] the you know you're. not going to get a cop like he's not.

coming now I have had so many friends. that completely flipped to 180 after. they got robbed yeah right 180 they're. Trump supporters now it's crazy people. that were like full on liberals and then. they you know get a gun pointed in their. face and all of a sudden they're like oh. this is what we signed up for this is. you're just letting these people out. like you arrest these people and let. them out and then they just do it again. and they get arrested like what the [ __ ]. the assistant to uh the The Da in New. York just got attacked just got by some.

guy who had been see if you can find. this he got robbed by some guy who had. been arrested some insane amount of. times since. 2023 I was looking at the story online I. was like this is so crazy that this. person just keeps getting out and keeps. robbing people and then just Rob the. assistant to the DA Alvin BR R out it is. suspected gang member accused of. exposing himself robbing Manhattan. District exposing himself he pulled his. dick out and he robbed him exposing. himself is funny because they have Expo.

go to the headline exposing himself is. first the robbing part that's second but. he showed him his penis that is. unbelievable. unbelievable WR I mean to laugh about it. but it's just like it's comedy bro it's. like satire almost uh Brandon Samosa. confronted the 38-year-old victim in the. hallway of her building on West 44. Street around 2: a.m. authori say he. grabbed the victim's purse cell phone. and bank card before exposing himself he. pulled his dick out after he robbed her.

he robbed her first but they put it. exposing himself F like the the hor most. horrible thing that he did police were. able to track the phone and eventually. arrest him near a hotel on West 45th. tweet 8th Avenue on Tuesday leading. authorities to believe the suspect is a. migrant possession of drugs about no. they know who the guy is Jamie they. caught the guy he's been uh see if you. can find a more updated version of it. because um he's he was arrested a ton of. times since. 2023 exposing himself makes more sense. now that it's a lady I I thought was.

that Jamie it's still on there oh okay. right there he's been arrested six times. in the last five months for similar. crimes six times wouldn't you think. after five times AG go hey maybe this. guy's a real criminal we might need to. lock him up maybe we need to put him in. jail maybe he's a real criminal nope. keep him out there there's reasons Jesus. Christ that's the world we're living in. now and that's LA and that's New York. and that's uh a lot of places that got. [ __ ] up by incompetent people I don't. know I just feel safer knowing like P. this microphone with I feel safer.

knowing that Trump is in office I do too. I like feel great about it like I just. like what I don't feel safer is right. now they're launching missiles into. Russia yeah the how do you how are you. allowed to do that when you're on the. way out like the people don't want you. to be there anymore this should be like. some sort of like a pause for like. significant actions that could. potentially start World War III maybe. that would be a good thing that we would. like to avoid from a a dying former. president this it's the whole thing is. nuts I mean look I don't know [ __ ] about.

politics says Putin is. terrified [ __ ] you man [ __ ] you people. you [ __ ] people are about to start. World War III yeah it's crazy Russia. fired a missile today yeah they fired an. intercontinental ballistic missile for. the first time ever it's the first time. one of those has ever been used that's. Insanity [ __ ] Insanity cuz those. intercontinental ballistic missiles can. have nukes on them this wouldn't didn't. but if it does the whole world changes. and it changes because of the.

military-industrial complex and it. changes because the money that's going. to Ukraine and it changes because the. outgoing president or whoever the [ __ ]. is actually running the country is. decided to do some decided to do. something [ __ ] insane [ __ ] insane. and we're all sitting there watching it. and people are cheering it on CNN was. saying like finally see what what their. headline was about zalinski using about. Biden giving zalinski the ability to use. longrange missiles us made long R it's.

not like nobody knows where they came. from it's not like nobody knows we've. been funding this it's a proxy war the. whole thing is [ __ ] insane it's. insane come to the negotiation table sit. down work this out stop killing. everybody us allows Ukraine to use long. Ray missiles so what did they. say someone had said that like CNN was. saying that it was a good thing which I. think is how how has the left gone so. far crazy that they think it's a good.

thing to launch. missiles just that's what's scary about. life is like you don't want to pay. attention to that [ __ ] you just want to. live your life you want to just be. carefree and have fun and do the thing. that you're passionate about and. meanwhile the world is burning and you. just it do it's at that high level it's. like there's nothing well we can we. voted Trump in and his his idea to stop. all this [ __ ] and hopefully he can do. that yeah but you know man [ __ ] it's.

scary I feel like none of the [ __ ] um. problems between the Ukraine and Russia. would have been. exacerbated as far as they went had. Trump been in office at i' like to think. that I I I genuinely believe that he has. a way. of keeping the peace in a certain way. and like well as soon as he got elected. the Taliban said let's form a truce you. know know Hamas is saying look Let's uh. cease fire everybody is saying these. things like right away China was saying.

we'd like to do business with America. Russia was saying that like let's. [ __ ] calm everybody down and stop. being so [ __ ] tribal you're so crazy. that you think that everything the left. is doing his right because you're on the. left this is insanity and for anybody. that's a a left-wing Progressive person. to think that somehow or another. missiles are a good thing God damn it. God damn it you people out of your [ __ ]. that's the answer there's NE it's never. the this is craziness especially with.

Russia God. damn yep but anyways that's the [ __ ]. that keeps me up at night man oh I know. when when I get paranoid late at night. when everyone's asleep that's the thing. that gets me world war yeah the war just. because it's happened before man that. the world has been at peace before and. then all of a sudden chaos and to think. that that can never happen again you're. wrong it's happening right now it's just. it's not happening here and we don't. feel it here so we don't it doesn't. affect our thinking process and we.

support things that could lead do it. happening here and we don't even realize. we're doing it while we're doing it as a. human being like wouldn't you think. that keeping yourself and the rest of. the PO population of the world safe is. priority number one it's priority that's. number one and peace and by the way. everybody wants peace everybody wants. their children to be happy everybody. wants to be wellfed and healthy. everybody wants that just figure out a. way to [ __ ] balance it all out yeah.

Jesus. Christ well you know we got 60 more days. till Trump gets in or whatever it is how. many days it. Jamie but who knows maybe once it gets. in they'll ramp it up who knows maybe. they'll sabotage his administration. that's what's even more scary people. don't want him in power and the people. that are in don't want to leave power. and they'll try every way they can to. keep it 60 days from. today all right on the news 60 days keep.

your fingers crossed yeah just hope uh. Putin understands what's going on as. well and ziny doesn't do anything stupid. but saying that Putin's terrified God. damn it it's like you're trying to like. tug the tail of a [ __ ] sleeping uh. dragon dragon yeah also zalinsky can I. get a drug test can we just get one drug. test before we send you any more money. like what are you doing are you doing a. lot of blow over there like cuz this is. like blow like behavior I'm not. responsible for him I wasn't there but.

you know what I'm saying this is like. cocaine like Behavior Putin's [ __ ]. scared man yeah Putin's terrified jacked. up we got him we got him man we got him. like what are you talking about he has. nuclear missiles you [ __ ] monkeys. Jesus Christ my chance right now Jesus. Christa destruction yeah Putin should. not have invaded Ukraine yes. 100% but don't start World War III. there's got to be a way to settle this. there must be I got to put some of this. into my music like these feelings of.

like even the conversations we're having. and one of my best my favorite anti-war. songs is Ghetto Boys [ __ ] a war yeah. Bushwick Bill wiie D told me wrote that. in 40 minutes I like Ghetto Boys I [ __ ]. love Ghetto Boys storytellers like yes. like Polo uh cool G Rap oh yeah man and. that ER [ __ ] blocking yeah [ __ ]. story tellers.

it this that I've seen like I remember. sitting in St. Bard's I had been invited on the boat of. pretty successful very. wealthy Russian people I knew I know and. sitting there chilling doing my normal. like just hanging thing and I see a a.

battleship pull up like an actual like. [ __ ] army or navy whatever the [ __ ]. boat pull up near us somebody gets off a. tender gets on the boat I'm on and it. was Gaddafi's son whoa. yeah like what the [ __ ] this is surreal. this is and what year was this was. Gaddafi still alive yeah I for I forget. what year was I think it's like. 2008 something like that so he's. probably still alive yeah definitely. still alive he was telling me how his.

country is becoming much more like. open-minded and normal and this and that. and I um I had a keyboard I was like. jamming out playing and [ __ ] I'm just. such a [ __ ] weirdo I was like playing. Hava agila like just the [ __ ] with I'm. just like a weirdo dude that was funny. but I've seen some [ __ ] man I seen them. [ __ ] craziest it's great American. story that's the Great American story. you know like uh coming from nothing.

chasing your dream making your dream. [ __ ] up your life along the way but. still alive to tell the story you know. to see [ __ ] BMF out at the club all. the time like be in the club and I'll be. like y these guys over there they just. sent you 20 bodles of chrisal and you're. like okay who are they and they're like. this is the [ __ ] this is the guys. like okay cool thank you guys like they. were [ __ ] cool as [ __ ] me every time. I see him weird yeah I never had any. drama I never had any like crazy. situations happen because I think in the.

terms of like I was providing. opportunity for a lot of [ __ ] people. like trying to like make it like rappers. from the streets like so people were. just always cool with me and like I was. respectful to everybody around me did. you ever have a communication with that. guy who called you the white devil no. that was it that was it you never talked. to him after I knew what I had to do I. had to like make my own world and like. people that love me and be around those. people and that's a terrible way to.

think yeah it's such a terrible way to. think that someone just because of the. color their skin even though they're. they work with you and you're cool. together that you could just out that. person the [ __ ] that the other side has. endured over like the beginning of time. it's like okay so what whatever but it. just hurt my feelings because it was my. fam right I thought and like I guess. like I just felt like I just felt [ __ ]. up and I was like you know what if. anybody knows me they know that like I'm.

not that devil like I'm the guy that. just is. loving like free-spirited like. open-minded like non racist right but. that doesn't sell headlines buddy yeah I. know the white devil sells headlines the. white devil gets people feeling better. about themselves I moved to LA and and. started working in Trey's camp and I. felt so much love respect and like um I. was I was made to feel like what I was. bringing to the table and that crew was.

like they were like identifying that. [ __ ] and they were like praising me and. making me feel great and what you know. the expression game recognizes game yeah. right yeah that's what it is people see. you and they hear you and they know they. see like oh this guy's a wizard like. what's going on okay you're staying here. for a long time. Scott I let a lot of people down man. when I got heavy into drugs like like. the doctor Drees of the world it's like. they're trying to hang in there with me. like for [ __ ] bro like at some point you.

know they gota like put me on time out. you know what I mean yeah so well that's. probably good for you too yeah when you. disappoint people that you respect and. care for yeah it's that's like that's a. real emotional Rock Bottom you know. that's and that's sometimes people need. that to course correct if everything's. going great you have no reason to stop. doing blow and partying all night if. everything's perfect perfect and you. know there's a lot of people that will. enable you to keep that life going. because they're feeding off of you. misery loves company there's that but.

then there's also people that like all. they want to do is uh keep you happy. because they make a living off of you. and so they don't want to rock the boat. right so they don't care like if you're. destroying yourself but the truth is. there's two different modes there's the. guy that can make music and smokes his. weed and [ __ ] eat pizza and just like. a normal guy and then when I flip to. that other. thing cocaine is not a drug you can. really make I feel like good music on it.

may seem good when you're making it but. you listen to it the next day because. any the emotions it's like a whirlwind. of emotions that you feel when you're in. that world like you really feel. like happiness sadness this that the. other like all these things all within. 10 minutes you could have tion it's good. so how you going stay on something that. you want to make people feel a certain.

way right so that's I mean I've never. done Coke but everybody that I know does. coke says you can't perform on it it. [ __ ] you up you don't feel right you. you're you know no because you're. feeling 20 different emotions inside of. a minute and it's like you can only. think about one thing when you're on it. is that that's it. so yeah there's no real good not. recommended for anybody I don't know. anybody who's got like a great Coke. story no maybe one night but most Coke.

stories lead to my life fell apart no. happy ending no no happyend no there's. no like Coke Advocates right you know. there's a lot of marijuana Advocates. they'll tell you marijuana changed my. life marijuana made me more. compassionate that's me May marijuana. made me a Kinder person more sensitive. you know more into Community more into. love nobody says that about there's no. cocaine fixed my life my life is kind of. a mess and I started doing blow and then. man it all just came together you know I.

realized that's what I need I was a. little I think I'm a little imbalance I. just need cocaine every day I remember. being so perplexed I I I don't like. throwing people under the bus so I won't. say who it is but one of the. most massive people in the world of. technology like in the world. of these younger computer guys that. became extremely famous like start. people that started Facebooks and this. and that all that type of [ __ ] like one. of those guys I'm like going say who but.

like somebody was [ __ ] so huge I went. to visit him with some friends of mine. sitting at a table whacking it up and. the dude's telling me that he had just. had a heart attack a couple of nights. before and then he started talking about. how cocaine is one of the most poorly. publicized drugs in the world I was like. what the [ __ ] am I listening to me even. being onto the influence was like this. is frightening this was one of those. guys like one of the big big like change.

the world kind of people so he was. telling you he just had a heart attack. but cocaine is awesome. yeah and he's super smart yeah which is. even scarier because you can convince. yourself world knows who this guy is wow. whole world but yeah I don't know I've. had many situations where people so. selfishly even knowing I'm recovering or. recovered or whatever the [ __ ] you want. to call it want to like have the.

opportunity to do something they'll pull. me aside like I always wanted to do a. bump with. you go man but. no we can't do that bro when was the. last time you did one oh [ __ ] I mean i'. I've fallen within the past six months. but you know I got good people around me. now that's good and like the shame the. guilt and everything just prevents you. from from enjoying that and making like.

even thinking about doing it like can't. do it that's good that's good hey man. six months is great yeah six days is. great the the whole thing is just you're. going to fall and if you fall get up yep. get up it's okay you're a Human Being. Human Beings [ __ ] up they make mistakes. especially when you're dealing with. something like addiction and most people. think that can never be me that could. never be I'm not like that yeah it could. definitely be you there's things that. trigger it and like it's usually [ __ ].

you know what I'm saying like you're not. in like you have no intention whatsoever. of of um doing something and all of a. sudden it's right there in front of you. there's a [ __ ] ass naked girl and. there's a pile of this and there's you. had like two drinks I've done it before. and I could just do it this one time. yeah I'm going to be okay yeah it we'll. be okay 3 days later you're looking out. the window like a what the [ __ ]. bloodshot eyes like you got pink eye. yeah yeah yeah but too much too much.

going on now man with movie with my my. single with like my you know it's just. well seems like you're in a good place. that's great great place that's awesome. that's awesome well it's uh I think it's. so important for people like you to tell. your story raw and unedited like you do. cuz I think people want to see a person. that's been very successful and they. want to have this. Rosy view of what their life was like. people love to like build you up but.

they love tearing you down same time. like it becomes like a and then for. me. like in my business it's such a. desperate business if people know I'm of. sound mind and like at the top of my. game and I'm making some [ __ ] fire. ass music that's a threat for certain. people. of course so they'll block it like and. they'll perpetuate the rumors and do. whatever the [ __ ] to make sure that I.

don't get behind they're they're like a. goalie for the artist like so many huge. artists they like they don't want me to. get with them because they know it's. going to happen I'm G to make better. [ __ ] people don't like when someone's. talented and they don't like when. someone's successful because everybody. Compares themselves to other people. that's the real the real problem is. comparison is the thief of joy is that. tho is that who that was said that I. think it was Thomas Jefferson yeah. thorough is most men leave live lead. lives of quiet desperation um but.

comparison is a thief of joy is that's a. real thing man and if you're a person. that's looking at someone else's success. and somehow or another wanting to. diminish that you're doing it to. yourself whether you real realize it or. not you are wasting your. own precious Life Energy on hating on a. person and that will take away your gift. it'll take away your creativity it'll. take away your ability to be present. because they're fools that's why they do. it in the first place job security it's. it's a foolish Venture and even if it.

works even if it works you're doing. yourself in too because you know you're. a piece of [ __ ] you know that you've. done that to a person you know you've. distorted who that person is for just. because you want to feel better about. your own life you want someone to falter. so that you don't feel when you're. comparing yourself to them you don't. feel inadequate and that's that's the. reason it's just pettiness just human. weakness and it's one of its grossest. forms it's not called out enough you. know it's it's it's really dis it's a. disgusting Behavior pattern that's bad.

for Humanity I. genuinely feel joy and excitement. and happiness for friends or colleagues. that have success yeah you should and. it's inspiring I just see so many others. that. just don't like look at it like that. they look they're. selfish haters but that's a good thing. and you could say that that's selfish in. a way because when you help people and.

when you're inspired by other people's. success and when you enjoy other. people's success you are experiencing a. positive thing and that positive thing. is one of the most important aspects of. life like to deny yourself that because. you can't control your emotions and you. can't control your jealousy and your. feelings and to like hate on someone. you're denying yourself an opportunity. to feel good and you could genuinely. feel happy for everyone's success and.

still be successful it doesn't take away. your success at all it's just a mental. trap and people need to understand that. trap it is in security but it's also a. lack of understanding of how your mind. works how the human mind can play little. tricks on you and lay traps for you and. how jealousy can rear its ugly head and. distort your views we fall into certain. ways like yes like we fall into certain. way when I was in the [ __ ] the. Limelight and now I'm like in like team. Hilton and I'm hanging out with certain.

people I'm hanging out with like some. [ __ ] like spoiled brat lucky sperm. Club ass [ __ ] degenerates and like. basically competing with who could be. the most obnoxious in the crew like you. don't see that happening until like I. looked back at videos and things of me I. was like dude what a jump I was like. doing that I was like slowly but surely. like turning into that yeah just to be. like I don't know just that's the [ __ ].

that's [ __ ] up like you just have to. like really always. maintain who you really are and like not. get lost in that [ __ ] and like live for. others or try and be did did we were we. talking about this on the podcast the. other day or was it a green room. conversation someone said. that. P personalities are as in infectious as. diseases can be someone was saying that. like energy like people's energy is as. of infectious as diseases and when.

you're around someone that has a great. personality and very positive you get. infected by that positivity start. exuding that and when you're around. [ __ ] like [ __ ] dumb asses who. just thinking a stupid [ __ ] way you. start thinking that way it's it's. contagious there's something to it you. got to be careful about a company we. keep oh my God this world is so polluted. right now it's the most important thing. it's the most important thing is your. community right your family your friends.

your community the people that you. associate with and if you're associating. with [ __ ] you're going to have a. [ __ ] up experience dude the less. people I come in contact for me is the. better like I like being home I like. going to nice restaurants and I like. being home I don't really like going out. and [ __ ] cuz all that energy rubs off. on you and people's Karma whatever the. [ __ ] it is yeah and like the anxiety. everything all the the weirdness of. people comparing with each other who's.

got the better watch who's wearing the. nicer shoes like what the [ __ ] are we. doing over that it's stupid that's good. you're smart you're wiser yep takes time. to figure these things out like but. better late than never yeah but but you. still have the art you still have the. desire for the art like that through the. whole thing I lost that Um passion that. we spoke of earlier for a while and now. back like a [ __ ] beautiful yeah. I'm in there like that's the American. success story and when you rather that.

than at the typ height of your Fame with. the party and the drugs and the [ __ ]. chaos and falling apart it's better to. just like embrace the art that's where. like it's not real I don't want to [ __ ]. with it right like I'm I'm like not. gonna like Chase checks to work on music. like I'm going to work on what's great. and that's how you [ __ ] do what's. right you stay in your lane and you do. what's you know is there any way to play. the single I got coming or sure I think. I have it but I'm going to show you this. girl is.

I told him sitting in the studio I was. I'm going to make you a hit record today. he was like 15 16 and I did that we made. run it that day I've done a lot of you. know when I came back into the business. after my like dark period of just not. doing anything except doing drugs which. lasted eight nine. years I met Steve Lael. and Steve not only were we Partners on. the rehab center but he was helping me. get back into the music thing and he I.

Rich uh Russ who's one of my favorites. like I love Russ I don't know if you're. familiar with his music he's just like. he's got something to say he's like he's. the man like you gotta like [ __ ] with. Russ he's a really serious artist today. I've seen this guy without radio because. he has a fan base a cult fan base.

because what he does is so real without. radio or any [ __ ] he's selling out. arenas by himself you know that's. amazing yeah it's amazing he's just I. love that that's happening today yeah. they kind of taken the keeper the. gatekeeper is out of the equation now. yeah all something has to do is be good. and get it on online he released uh 200. songs in one year just like SoundCloud. or whatever the [ __ ] wow 200 songs in a.

year yeah holy [ __ ] you know and he just. started that. consistency people became an acquired. taste and then so you just you love. watching people make it yeah I like. being responsible for that it's more of. a challenge than just oh I'm gonna make. Drake a hit you know I really want to. work with Drake but I've been. roadblocked with Drake I know Drake. loves. me and my production but for whatever. reason I haven't been able to get in I. want to get a hold of Drake and talk to. him about his fight picks that.

[ __ ] loses more money on fights. I want to call him up before it's over. Jones by KO before it's over I need to. get a record off with him I want to get. a record off with him wasn't Jon Jones a. 600 to one favorite I mean well he had. it by KO it wasn't just the win but yeah. well that's what I would have said. anyway I mean I would not have thought. John would I mean that's easy bet I want. to get a record off with Rihanna too I. had a very uncomfortable meeting with. Rihanna and I'm mortified to this day. uncomfortable because of the cocaine no.

what happened I she was in a VIP in New. York years and years. ago and doing her thing and whatever and. they like obviously people know who I am. so they didn't front on me they let me. up into her TBL it was a greenhouse and. back in the day and I introduced myself. and whatever and I gave her a hug and I. [ __ ] got hooked onto her hoop earring. my clothes got hooked on I'm like don't. move don't move don't move was shit's G. to I almost ripped her [ __ ] ear off.

accidentally that walk out of that VIP. room was the most mortified most. embarrassing [ __ ] I ever [ __ ] felt in. my life I was like she's cool I bet she. I bet she doesn't remember do that like. it would mean to get her I know but. that's anci that guy at that moment oh. no it's that. guy so yeah it haunts me you're meaning. so only didn't hook up with that earring. you want to make a good impression and. you get her ear ripped off yeah yeah. yeah whatever life is full of surprises.

yeah so are is is like your favorite. your favorite thing seems to be breaking. new people then is it because you get to. show the world new Talent is it does it. remind you of you when you were getting. your breaks you're helping sculpt what. somebody's sound is going to be the. backbone of what where they started like. like. creating something new and uh I think. that's a to me like my sound is always.

been to not have a sound and like you. know have like different like genetic. strains of music I call them like. there's like different things that I. brought to the table that nobody else. was doing and then when people start. doing it so much you're honored copying. you and then you move on to the next. thing but like with artists you get to. like concoct some kind of new Vibe with. them I did Beyonce's first solo album we. made a sound and we did. three.

smashes I did three straight smashes out. of three songs I did one was baby boy. naughty girl and me myself and I and at. that. point I had just moved. from. LA and like i' had been working with Dre. for so many years and I'm looked looking. at Dre I'm like Dre has his Empire and I. need to like go off and like create my. Empire not competing but doing something.

different within music and not using. that sound that he and I created and. sculpt together um which was like the. new wave of West Coast music I moved. back to Florida to Miami where I hadn't. been in eons I because I went from. Florida as a kid I lived there to I was. 15 I moved to to uh Philly with my dad. and then from Philly to LA and now I'm. going from back at know to go start my.

own little world I'm now Rich okay and I. go home to Florida I'm rich and I'm. ready to [ __ ] make my own little. sound and [ __ ] create some [ __ ] Beyonce. was one of the first. contestants and we [ __ ] solidified. that [ __ ] and made history with that. album like I remember she did gramys and. she thanked God and then she thanked me. first like and I was like I have it up. I'm like it was like one of the biggest.

honors of the world like and like we. made history and that was like the. that's like that's the ultimate thing. that I want to continue to do is like I. want to do that with Abby and I feel. like once I get driven like that there's. nothing can stop. me and prove my point that's beautiful. yeah Scott's been great talking to you. man I really appreciate it appreciate. you coming down here it's been a lot of. fun thanks man wow we did three hours or. it's close like two and a half hours now. it's crazy I could talk right yeah man.
