Don't protect you. Don't protect. You know what's up. I'm trying to protect you. No, no, no. But you know what's up. Don't. I'm not lying. I was there. You was there. You was on my phone. Yo, listen. Oh, they announced doing Brother and Sister. Hey, Joe, listen. They announced the verses. My first. Yo, I'm not even going to lie to you. Come on. It was like viral. I'm not going. It wasn't viral. It. It was viral for your call because it came so fast and it said, yo, brother, you leave me there. I didn't know I was in for the fix, right? I'm like, yo, you know what? Premeditate you guys had just did the verses. You actually fucked me up because your verses was so hooded, so ghetto. They was. No, no, I'm just Saying they shooting dice. No, I love it. It's the greatest. It's the greatest moment in hip hop I've seen in my lifetime recently. Right? I'm just keeping it real with you. But they definitely was. You wasn't at the bathroom. They were shooting dice and smoking blunts at the bath. Girls had to walk over dice games. This was C70. No. So you had me thinking I was the next verses, that it was going to be ghetto, you know, what's up? I'm thinking about all these underground sauce. He called me, I said, man, Nelly might be too big for this, cuz by the way, Nelly done sold 30, 40 million records. Way too big. So I said, yo, you know what? You might want to fall back, right? And then I'm going through it. And I said, man, we better call dirty. But I didn't know you were setting me up the whole time. And so I go, I call you back. He was like, I'm there. You're my brother. One thing I could say, you know, you might. This, you know, okay, that's your wife. Say no more. This my sister on another level, right? So I don't think people really understand that when we call brother and sister, that's a different type of talk. Yes, sir. So it's like. It's a different type of talk. It's like, yo, that's my sister. We have friends, associates, people. But when we in that lane, it's a different type of lane. And so I don't think nothing of it, man. And you came out there sleepwalking. You seen that. You was like. You walk across the whole shit. I see, yo, I've been duped. I've been taken. Taken for a ride. I've been checking.

You wanted your own thing. Listen, and you caught a Birkin and a baby in a malt. You out of control with this. Never, never in my life. A Birkin and a baby is amazing. But the scenario was a little bit different, okay? Right, I did. I saw the verse of what's There and I knew what was going on. I didn't. I was gonna. Just so happened I was up in New York. I was gonna be there for something a little bit different. You was there early, too. I was there super early. So when it was like that, I was just letting you know, yo, I'm up here you gonna need. I'm gonna be up there if you need me to pop out. I was just letting you know. Cause I. I knew where verses was the time I did it. This had been. This is Madison. Went to Madison Square Garden. Hold up one second. Different. You added to the delusion. Like, you came in my room early and was like, you got this. He can't mess with you. You. I'm like, y' all. Yeah, we going.

I said, don't wor. Worry about. You know, you got this, baby. Let me explain. You got this, and then you got. The verses is the closest thing to a boxing match. Yeah. So when I came down, I stood at Uncle Dan's house in Jersey. When I came downstairs, the doorman was like, get him, Joe. I get in the car. I swear to God, I get in the car. The FedEx man was like, get him. Crack everywhere you go. Old lady crossing the street. Get him, Joe. Drag him. I was like, yo, I was like, canelo. I was like. And then just like a boxing match, when it got to, like, that 13th, 14th, and 15th thing, I just kept feeling body blow, body blow, body blow. I said, oh, my God, this guy, he's swinging for the fences, man. You guys had. How do you feel in that? Cause you was in the. Oh, man, I felt like the tennis match, you know what I'm saying? I was like this, okay, joke, jot, Joe going back and forth. But, you know, I love both of y' all. You know what I'm saying? So I was definitely going to. Going to be there. But, you know, when I spoke to you after. Why you ain't telling me this was going to be there? Because why you ain't tell me? Joe is just as guilty as dirty. Thank you, Jada. I called my friend and said, yo, I'm this woman for nobody. It's facts, factual. I don't go against her for nobody. Her and Rem. I don't Go against them, right? This guy lined me up. I didn't think about it until he came out and started sleepwalking through the. Yo, they got video of it when I came upstairs at rehearsal.

When I walked in your room, it was somebody with me. I didn't even notice. Yeah, I know you. When I walked in your room. Room. It was somebody with me. I did not come there. I thought it was Jermaine Dupree. That's the only guy I see what you. No, no, I'm telling. Because here's the thing. I did not want to cause no friction. I did not. You two brothers was there, you know me doing what you was doing. And I was like, yo, this is a beautiful situation. You know me. So I'm gonna keep it Pete. All right? I'm. I. You know me. Yeah. And you know me. The audience kind of know me for 30 years, but they don't really know me know me. And some of the shit I say sound crazy, but I need 10%. Brad Pitt that this kid Muhammad Ali gonna make. I'm in this management contract or something, right? This guy looked like Muhammad Ali when he was born. Yeah. Have y' all showed him yet or he's gonna be on the show? No, we didn't show him yet. Not even in the show. I'm leaving that to her birthday. Yes. You sang Happy birthday in the UK? 9 months.

Great energy. Great energy. I told everybody. I said like this. I'm on the red carpet. And it was like, did you see Ashanti and Nelly's baby? I said, the most beautiful. This man was born. No, this man was born with a full set of hair. He got that mango. I'm not exaggerating. I'm sorry. I don't see him yet. But this guy's a star. And I know I got at least to get some type of paper off. We got you, uncle. Me and you both. Cause he. He a half a meal in the hole. Because I was on tour when he decided to come out two weeks early. So he kind of cost me two shows. No, it cost me two shows in a party. And I need my money. He started more than half a million. We gonna make that up. We gonna make that up. Don't worry about it. We got up. He gonna need a birth of a legend. Yeah, we appreciate it, man. Thank him. So, you know love. Yes. Love overpowers hate over powers every other thing. You know, sometimes hearts miss each other. It ain't always guaranteed to hit each other and find the right thing. And so you guys definitely spun the block and came back and your hearts joined together. And there's nothing like that for you guys to make a TV show called We Belong Together. This is like segue, Pastor. Hey, let's go. Thank you, Jada. Amen, brother. I mean. I mean, I know what it's like. I'm just asking you. Y' all both more mature. Y' all figured out. Damn, man, that was my guy. You figured out. That was my girl. We both well off in life, thank God. I think that's basically it, man. We had a chance to see. And I hate using that example, but it is. I mean. I mean, it's in. In a way, not to minimize it, but it's like getting a chance to test drive a vehicle. Then, you know, like, yo, that's the one. That's. That's. That's the one. You know what I'm saying? It's like, well, maybe it ain't something. Nah, it's all that and there's something. So it's just like, yo, this is the one that you feel you want to ride off of. You ain't been saying much. I'm listening. This is a male driven deal shot. See? No, we need the ladies to speak up, and that's amazing. She ain't talking. We need your prescription. I mean, I agree, you know, I said, I feel like what's meant to be will be, you know? We were together off and on for 11 years. We broke up for almost 10 years, and I didn't know what was gonna happen, you know, the next time I saw him. We hadn't seen each other until that night. So, you know, when the breakup first happened, it's like, when you see him, I'm like, oh, I'm a punch. You know what I mean? I hate him. I'm a just. You know, it was one of those. So being that so much time went by, that was the first night in almost a decade that we saw each other, talk to each other, anything. So for it to happen like that, it was just like, oh, shit, that was gone. She got the Birkin and the baby. The Birkin and the baby. And the ring. Don't play with me. Hello. Hello. She got the ring. Loreen. No, Lorraine. Lorraine. She said. She says to me, she says, I don't know. She asked me what time. Yo, bro, why. You know why. It ain't working out for me like that, right? And I was like, yo, sis, you know when a guy take you on a date, you got moms, 10 cousins, DJ security, like, yo, on a date with a whole 12 clip, imagine you take a girl, yo, I like you. Let's go on a date. It's the whole fam. I said, yo, sis, maybe if you cut off some of the entourage on the date. She was like, you think so? I said, yo, I tell you. But the. The moral to the story is this Woman has managed to have the cleanest reputation in this business because she had her mother and her family and her thing. You ain't. You ain't with no washed up stories. You got a prime time, Right. Thank you. And so. No, no, I mean, I'm telling you, I attribute that to you, of course, but I attribute that to your mother and your family for being there. Because the biggest problem, even in my projects when I grew up, is women being influenced by other women. Women got dirt on her. She definitely want a friend to get dirt on her. Y' all but talk to him. But this y' all. But God. Yeah, right. Facts. And so she ain't no dirt on her face. Clean. And so I love that for y' all, too. Now this man right here, I don't know if he knows, he took me on my first real tour and Kesha Cole used to open up for us. And she would sing what's Love. Would be behind the curtain singing what's Love. Oh, shoot. Live. And we went all around the country, and you and your entire crew, right, Just all of y' all treated me with so much love over the years. You guys, every time I see you guys, you bring a smile on my face. I mean, all of you guys, all of you guys are amazing. And this is this, this, this, this is a beautiful thing. You know what I'm saying? Hell, yeah. And has this slown up your schedule or y' all still. Nah, we still pure. Pure, absolutely. Definitely. I mean, with her, obviously with the baby, she's trying to less as possible, but I'm doing the rest of the tour, the rest of the year. We did Australia, Canada and Europe. She was actually with me for a majority of Europe. And then now we start back here in the States and the end of this month, towards weeks, something like that. So thank God I'm still 26 years later.

SmartThings app available on Android and iOS devices Wi Fi connection and Samsung account required hey, so we all make mistakes, but owning up is the right thing to do. You know Degree Cool Rush deodorant well, last year they changed the formula and it did not go well with their fans. Degree's whole thing is it turns up the sweat and odor protection when you turn up the effort. And good thing it does because Cool Rush fans really turned up the effort to bring back the original formula. One guy even started an online petition and Degree listen they admitted they effed up and are bringing the original cool Rudd ascent back. And it's exactly how you remember cool, crisp and fresh. It's back in Walmart, Target and other stores now for under $4. There's a reason why it's been the number one men's antiperspirant for the last decade.

Tell us about that. Well, you know I did a, I did a reality show so to speak because I was before Nellyville. But I wanted to show us fathers, single fathers at that time, you know what I'm saying? And I just thought it was a, a great way to show, show the rest of the world that you can still be in here and still doing what we doing. You know, you, you got your baby girl with you, you always keep your babies with you and things like that. And I thought that that would be a dope process. But doing this right here, I just wanted people to get a chance to see Exactly. The things that you talked about in the qualities of this young lady right here, you know, they don't get a chance to see her charisma, how funny she is and everything from that standpoint. And, you know, it's 20, 25, so you're looking for different avenues as well. You know, we gotta think business at all times. That's a fact. You see what I'm saying? So she gets. She gets to think about everything else for me, and that's a blessing. But I gotta think about the. You know what I'm saying? Moving this shit forward and keeping the platform. What's it like for you? You're a movie star? You, number one singer, you, all of the above. What's it like being on TV with cameras around your family? I mean, it's a lot. It was different because I'm a lot more private. And I just felt like when we spoke about it, obviously this was his idea. And at first I was kind of like. But then, you know, we're married, so I'm a team player. So I was down, you know what I mean? And it's like us just having real lives and careers and traveling. We just got married. I had a baby. That's a lot. So it's kind of like we had to find time for the cameras, you know what I'm saying? To kind of capture everything. So it was. It's a little bit of a lot, but it's worth it. It's worth it. She got so many other great ideas that she wants to get off the ground. And you know how business work, you know what I'm saying? You got to have avenues, outlets, platforms, and to get those out, you know what I'm saying? You can have great ideas all day, but if you ain't got nowhere to put them, if you ain't got no way to push them, or if you don't, you just sitting in the crib with that fish, you know what I'm saying? You ain't got no block or no workers. You just sitting in the house with a bunch of bricks, you know what I'm saying? I knew a artist who was, for the time being, he made nothing but hit records. And I would check on him in the studio, and he would, yo, I made this, and this shit be fire. And everybody go crazy in the studio. He would go, ah, it just ain't right. And he would erase the song. Every night, I would hear hit after hit after hit. When it was like that Method Man, Red man thing, he'd be like, let Me play you this. And I'd be like, yo, this not quite ready. The guy never came out and never became a superstar. Right. And so the problem is a lot of people, they procrastinate to the point that you talk out. You talk yourself out of the ideas, you know? And so in this age, you know, we had Jim Jones up in here and he bought a little film studio in the Bronx. He got them doing podcasts in there. We need to take matters in our own hands. Absolutely. And follow through with the ideas. Exactly. I'm with, with Shanti. We at the Beacon Theater. And I never forget what we could go into. Everything. But I never forget when we got that phone call mama. That she sold over 500,000 her first week, her first album. We jumping up and down like the wizard of Oz. Yeah, that Guinness Book. We jumping up and down in the middle of the street like, you know, the wicked witch is dead. Because I don't know if you remember how intense that was. It was like, what is it? What's the number? I remember what's going on. And we start running around. How does it feel to be on the Guinness Book and be one of the biggest female superstars with the most longevity and relevancy in the game? I mean, honestly, it's a blessing. I'm super, super humbled. And it's funny when you talk about that, remember, I didn't know what none of that meant. You know what I'm saying? It's my. I'm a new. Maybe we happy for you. Yes. Everybody's happy. And I'm looking, I'm like, well, is that good? 500,000, is that a good number? You know what I'm saying? I've genuinely had no idea. Is it a good number? So I was just like super appreciative and to be able to be here today and still as we both were in an arena in London to a sold out 20,000 seater, holding a mic out, allowing people to sing our records is a blessing. You know what I'm saying? So I'm just so happy. I'm grateful, you know. Oh, man. You know, we very competitive in our house. Cause you know, we didn't do that Means the baby got all. That's the dagger, though, that she throws. Like my debut did a hat. No, no, she don't. But you did 11. I'm looking at the video. Yeah, okay. Hold up. 26 of 33. Hold up. Jada. That wasn't a week. 26 of 33. That wasn't a week. Jada. That Video come out. That was not a week. That was not bringing the Note numbers. Is 10 million solely the week? Listen, let me run down the hardware that they got in their house. A lot of hardware. Just listen. Ladies and gentlemen, Nelly. Three Grammys, four American Music Awards.

You know what I'm saying? We love that. That's beautiful. I met Ashanti to put that under one. Let me tell you something. I met Ashanti. Shanti, it's a blessing. Could we. Could I talk about that? Talk about it. Shanti was like the studio. We just a studio body. You could call it a studio rat. That's what they used to say. That's what they used. I'm not saying that, but I'm just saying that studio body. She up in there. And the first day I met her, she was so upset because they broke into her car and stole her radio. This woman was ready to file charges to the moon and back. What happened? You just stole my radio. Crackhead broke the. I mean, it was like somebody murdered somebody. I'm up in that. I'm like, yo, they stole a radio with the Benzi box. Oh, you take the box. They stole her. She was like, radio. And you know, I would see her in the studio.

I swear to God. I thought I was out for sure. And with those guys, they love it. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Those guys love it. Well, fortunately enough, when we came in the game, we've always had a great relationship with everybody. We've been fortunate enough to stay out of a lot of different scenarios. Even when you came down to one of my first birthday parties. Whoa, Downtown. What hotel was that? It's the Downtown. I forgot. Millennium. It was a millennium, ladies and gentlemen. Something like that. In Atlanta, one of the craziest birthday parties. It was the craziest birthday party I ever been. I can't even say one of this crazy. Yo, he was in a Hotel. Yeah. J.D. d.J. Kicking. He had everything you could think of St. Louis. His room was one side of the hotel. Are you hearing me? I'm not a floor. Not a tweet. One whole side was his room. It was a big ballroom. It was great. It was crazy. It was. It was definitely big for our city and things like that, man, they come, you know, because we was huge locks. Huge locks. Fans, you know, you were spitting, you were spitting and they never really gave you credit for your lyrics. And spitting. They look at you as. You so big. 21 million somebody getting credit for spitting. No, no, no, no, no. I'm just saying, as an N. MC As a spitter, he. He was spitting. I take the bag. You listen to his. He was spitting. And it never really gave you credit lyrically, but you know what? It. It always felt a little different because I. I try to find my. My place. In everything in life, you find my place. You see what I'm saying? It don't matter what I'm in. Find my place. And. And I hate to tell people to stay in a place because I don't want it to be like, you can't grow. But if I find my place, I'm gonna stay in my place. You know what I mean? And I found my place. And it's not about. I said, give me my bag now. Bring my flowers to the grave. I don't give a shit about none of that. Cause flowers die. You know what I'm saying? I need my bag now. So if you bring me my shit now. I worry about everything else. I ain't never really worried about credit because all the people that I fuck with, I fuck with, like, just knowing that y' all good people, we good people. Knowing I got this woman right here and everything else underneath the table. I ain't worried about it. On the surface, like this man said, 21 million, but that was in two albums. They ain't even talking country song and all that. You was country before country 2003. What's that song with the. The country song over and Over Again is one of my favorite songs too. Yeah. And that was in 03 04. And Universal told me I was. Told me I was crazy. I was coming off of Nellyville. They had just cut me a 13 million dollar check. And I said, yo, I want to do a country song. They passed the out. Why you coming off of Nellyville? You just had dilemma. Hot in here now. You want to do country? Yes, because I'm lining up my avenues. I know if I land all of these different avenues, doors are going to start closing. And if this door is closed, this door is open. If this door is closed, this door is open. I got all those number one singles, and they all on every different form at country, rhythmic, top. But when you heard Nelly, I. Yeah, Nelly want you, Nelly. I need you, Nelly. What you thinking? Nah, that was a little before my time. You know what I'm saying? That was. When did Dilemma come out? When dilemma come out. Yeah, that was before my time.

The fabulous record. I hear it every day of my life with Tamir. If there's one record I hear every single day of my life, maybe I listen to the old school stations, I don't know. But the joint with Tamir, I. I can't escape also into you. But what happened with you? So this is what happened. Me and Fab did the record, right? Oh, so you did it first with him? No. Yeah, Yes, I did it first with him. They got the clearance, I'm assuming from Tamiya to do to redo it because it was originally her song, so. And she was her song. So he asked me to do the hook. We went and did the hook. He wanted to shoot a video. I don't mean to talk about the past, but he didn't want to clear that. He did not want to clear me being in the video. So they was like, yo, what sense does it make to go with this single? And we can't show the video, right? So they went back to Tamia and asked if she would do the video and then they put two versions out so mine was on the radio. And then they had I go all around the world with you and I watch you perform that record. And I said, this must have been a record because you ain't singing. Nobody Else's records. And you sing that song so passionate on tour. Thank you. And I'd be like, you thank. Did they steal this shit from her? Like, did she write this shit? Like, I knew there was a story behind this one record. Cause you do it in every show. And I'm like. I tell Lorena too. I was like, yo, man, I think Ashanti. That was her record. They took it from her. You know, I seen some crazy shit about what's the JLo. I just seen it. It's one of them Internet where you say, jlo, stop. But it was one of them. So you gonna see me on my own. It was Shantae Moore's record. Oh. And Ronnie Jerkins produced it for her. But he told to make it the number one. The first single. She didn't go with it at the first single. And he gave it to JLo, took off with that. Oh, wow. That's like them stories. Yeah. That's almost like always on time. You know that Brandy was supposed to do that. Yeah. Randy was supposed to do it. I happened to be in the studio, put a Shanti on there and see what happens. Shanti always sounds good at that one. Cause you know JLO was supposed to be what's love. Yes, I remember when you told me that. That was back in like. We was on a. Not a zoom. You stream. We was on something. And I didn't know that. Remember, we were talking. That's the truth. I didn't know that. First of all, let's just say rest in peace. Herb Dog was supposed to be on We Are the Who took the record? Jada, who took your spot? I was supposed to do Bruce Springsteen part. He called Bruce, man. I'm telling you, it was a toss up. They took Bruce, though. I'm telling you what happened, right? So I get to the. They call me Irv Gotti and Ja Rule three in the morning. I go to the studio. This. The studio was out of my pay grade too. It was one of them big shits with the big like the hit factory to speak it. Like big ass space shit. I've been recording in Bummy studios my whole life. I get up in there like this. So they press the thing and it's then. And then it was love, right? She's on it. And he's like, the Latino connection. You and your sister. Jlo, this will be life changing. He's selling me all this shit and I'm like, yo, but what's up with the girl on the. She sounds perfection. So I be having this thing called, like, demoitis. Don't play with it. Don't change the. Just. Just like that. Like that, like that. Know what I'm saying? I ain't gonna lie. We did lean back. Scott start sending mix and he added bells to it and all. I was like, oh, no, I want the demo. If it's a except we leave. Huh? And it was the best is fire. Cause I did that I can. I didn't have a name for it. No, what it is, is. What it is is. You know what you doing. You like it the way you like This a hit. Is it any worse feeling in the world than when they send it back? And it sounds nothing. Nothing like the original. I'm not gonna say this. The lean back sounded nothing like the original. He just added, like, cowbells and shit. And I was like, yo, bro, you know, knock yourself out. The one that the world here ain't. The one that I went to Virginia and sat with pharrell and did. He changed the beat, the whole. Oh, yeah. No, no, no, not. It's the whole. I know about post production. This was I r a whole nother song. I was mad as hell. Ice pick recipes, shout out to pharrell. Yeah, they like, trust me. I'm like, no, no. It's a whole nother. And it still came. Yeah, it hit. A lot of times you got to go with your gut. But sometimes. Sometimes it. It pays to. Not too many somebody out, though, too. Well, it depends. It depends on who it is, because you could trust some people. Guys, they know what they doing. You know what I mean? But a lot of times, you know, you try. You gotta go with your gut. I had things switched up again. My first single, country grammar again, I never heard the radio version. Never heard boom boom. The chorus was going down, down street sweep Going down down yo street in a range rover street sweeper cocked ready to let it go Shimmy, shimmy, coco. What? Listen to it. Powder light it up and take a puff Pass it to me now Never in my life heard boom boom down, down Baby, you streaming a rain go boom boom Ready to clean version. That's the clean. Never heard it. I cried. Cried. They are trying to ruin me. I knew it, and I ain't gonna even lie, boy, listen, I blamed it on New York. See, they don't know country music. I swear to God. I swear to God. New York embraced you. And there's always a big lie, right? There's a big lie, and I'll say, no, no, there's a big lie. You Got this thing that all our guests is from the Bronx. Everybody. She shot the video to what's Love in the Bronx? Fordham University. Come on, dog, don't do that to yourself. Listen, let me tell you. You up. What I was gonna say. Yeah, you did it. But let me tell you something. He goes, so I'm scared to fly at the time. I get on the tour bus, I go from Vegas, I drive all the way down to Cancun. Got stuck up about six, seven times, all by cops, Mexican dudes, this small guns. Guns as tall as these lights. They hit in the middle of nowhere. 100 pesos. Yo, by the seventh time, I was. I had to grab the Bible. No, no. I had to grab the. The Bible and open it up and be like, God, please, I can't get robbed no more. It wasn't even for my. It was my. My sanity. I was like, yo, they sticking us up every hour. Some guy, some cop is pulling us off, getting us for 100 hours. They're calling each other. They on the way home. They on the way. Get them. Listen. So I get the Cancun, right? And at that point, we perform it for spring break. So my album is only selling 5,000 a week at the time. So I say, yo, I gotta kill this. I tell Lorenta, I said, yo, Lorena, I gotta do something crazy. She said, go topless. Uh, oh. I said, what? Go topless. Ain't no big guy ever come out there and have his shit all open. Just throw a little towel on you. We went topless, me and Ashanti. It's out of here. Ain't look back since I felt bad for you. Now when I look at it, because I was a big. I never stunk in my life, but I was a big boy, sweating. I said, damn, Shawnee must have been like, this fat, like, wrong with him. And let me tell you something. The white people discovered Fat Joe once. What's Love came on. I never performed for blacks and Spanish people for the first two years. I was. Bar mitzvahs, rodeos, all type of shit. I'm getting the bag. Bag. I'll be like, yo, when we gonna perform for black people? Like, what's going on? That means you. You get in the bag, right? And so the shit kept. After we did that performance, all the white shows, like Soap Talk, Saturday Night Live, they was like, this guy is called Joey Crack. And then you had a arrow whacked my butt crack. And know why? People loved it. This went up 10,000 a week, 20,000 a week. This went on fire. We sold 2 million records. And it's really because that one performance turned that up on fire because they were making fun of me. But I guess it was like, viral moment. I had a time, but it was confidence. They can make fun, but that you they remember. Goddamn right. That's the moment, man. That's history right there. No, no, we got big history. We got big history. We got the biggest.

Big gift. D O Green. There is no Nelly with. Without CeeLo Green. You see what I'm saying? Like, just understanding that big Gilp and then Outkast, you know what I mean? Like, Outkast changed the whole way I was doing music, hearing them brothers, you know what I'm saying? And then met up with J.D. my man, Big Bob, who was security for J.D. at the time for a long time and still is. He's just helping me out. But, yeah, man, and J.D. that's part of why me and J.D. is so close. And a lot of people, J.D. did have an opportunity to sign me. I tell that story all the time. But me not knowing the business, I was a little bit upset with JD at the time. But knowing the business, I found out, you know, at that time, he had just signed. What did he just sign? Mace Harlem World. It's at the same time, he had just signed Mace, Harlem World. And the homie Mace, you know, was going through his life and whatever he was going through and had to step away for a minute. So, you know, those dominoes fall on a lot of different people at the time. And I was trying to come out right then and right there. But the thing about it is, JD Always kept a friendship with me. As far as, yo, I can't sign you, but You a cool motherfucker. And I was like, shit, this guy ain't gotta let me hang with him. And you know what I mean? And he was still keeping it peace. So that's like a big brother to me, man. And I've always been a so. So Deaf fan. And Tip and everybody else. I don't know, man. Stl, the ATL got strong ties anyway.

Like, I'm going overseas or something like that. I can't go to sleep. So what I'm trying to say is the plane lands. When it lands, there's a Bentley, a Rolls Royce, right outside with a driver. Nellie gets out, goes down the stairs. They open the door, they close the door, and he leaves. I said, this motherfucker rich. Nah, this. Listen, he ain't take a picture.

Let me ask you a question, right? If you don't want to answer it, we don't answer it. That's no way. Oh we throw it. I'm just got to keep it real. No, I got to keep it real, right? Or throw it out. You tell me. Throw it out. Come on, we editing it. When I see the stuff like St. Lunatics suing you and like that. Yeah. What? How do you feel about that? I think for the most part they had no family show. No no, no, no no no. Let's talk about family. Have no problem. That's what I'm talking about. Family. No problem with answering this. I think people were misinformed when we started the Lunatics. First of all, Murphy Lee was a year out of high school Bam. Stage, my brother Kewan. And then once we got the deal, City Spud went to jail, right? So me and the oldest one, we were the ones more engaged on the business side of things and how things were transpiring. I think everybody else was just happy to be there. So you know what it's like. If you in a group, you got some people that's going to the meetings, some people that's on the phone call, some people that are in those rooms when certain situations are being discussed and how they go. And you got other people that's. Nah, I just leave that to y' all. Nah, I just leave that to y' all. I leave that to y' all. So when the thing came up of how everything got broken down in the beginning, we had a up deal in the beginning. So the way things got spreaded out was that the oldest member of the group, the manager, is his best friend, our business manager is his best friend, and our road manager is his best friend. So. So they negotiated everything. They put everything into perspectives. And you see what I'm saying, And I'm trying to. Because they still got other things, but they were influencing the other ones. So when the ones that did not know what happened found out what happened. Now you see us back on tour, except for one. Because, long story short, the truth just needed to be told, and people needed to find out not just why it is, but how it is. And when you found out how it was, you understood. They understood. I've never seen nobody keep it more real with their crew than you. I said, nah. And I want you to know, if I'm sitting in New York and I see this shit, it's like a sledgehammer hit me and bust my head open like a fucking watermelon, you know? They say, you been with you. They say, you don't understand. I'm telling you the truth. No, but they say you don't understand who you are with until you go through something negative. That was our first time ever going through anything that wasn't positive. Because, you know, we were very, very fortunate, very, very blessed that when we first came out, we were rocket shipping, you know what I'm saying? So when it got to a point to where, okay, now everybody needs to. Everybody's trying to pay attention to something they should have been paying attention to since day one. But here's the thing, bro. Ever since this group been informed, I've always had the most money from the time we came into this crew. I came into this crew with two cars, my own Apartment and everything else that was. You see what I'm saying? I' paid my own way and other people's way to get through certain things. So I've never not paid attention to business, you know what I'm saying? Never not paid attention to business. Used to insist people pay attention to business. Used to ask people, you know, what's going on, you know what these, you know. But like you said, when the money is coming in, nobody wants to say nothing. And then obviously they look up on the day that. That the money is not where they think it should be and then wonder why they don't have it like that. But we all go through trials, tribulations, you know what I mean? Horrible times in hip hop. Yeah, you put that well, my brother. No, I appreciate it. I know you can understand it because I'm telling you, you gotta reflect. I've been in this game 30 years. I've been around so many crews. We love the Locks because their brotherhood cannot be they influence. They don't even know that. That's why you together like this. You hear what I'm saying? The locks is. I think their whole dynamic to me is that they never let nobody break them up. They together that I think that's what the streets love. So when I just evaluate the whole hip hop game and I've been around everybody, I've never seen nobody keep it more real than you. And I love everybody, so I'm letting them know I'm not. But I never seen nobody take care of their crew more than you. So it was shocking to me, just, you know, sitting back that, you know, and sometimes you don't know you can have that effect on somebody else. But I was just like, you know what I'm saying? No, but I've always. I've always said the same thing, you know, you know, that's your sister, you know, she like, what the. You know, because she can read certain, like, yeah, you know. And I said, he's the most generous person he. I've ever met. When it came to that, the family and that group and the. The percentages. And I was like, you giving out what? In the beginning, Coming off tour, I come. We come off the Nelly tour, I split it down the middle. I take half and I give them half. So if we come off a tour with $20 million, I take 10, the group get 10. No, but the group get they 10 and go home. I take my 10 and I pay commissions. I pay everything else. Everybody else get to go take their money and go and go sideways you know what I mean? Like so, you know, betrayal, man, you can't build the wall high enough. That should have jumped right over the wall. That hurts. You know that. That might be something. I think it's the only thing that might be closer similar than worse than death. It hurts you that much? Yeah, because it all. It's always somebody who, who love that you love that you trust at that time to. To show himself. You know what I'm saying? Because can't nobody you don't know or don't care about hurt you like that. Right? You know what I'm saying? Cuz you either. It's always somebody, you know, they say it's the ones closest to you, but it's always somebody you know that can really, really hurt you. And then you be like, man, yo, I'm just speaking about me now, you know, I'm just saying how many times I done looked out for this person, how many times I gave him a chance? How many times people told me, yo, don't have them around you? How many times this and this and that, and then you still went all out. And then they wind up doing the unimaginable firm believer. Everything happens for a reason to a certain degree. And a lot of times, what I had till, you know, I talked to my nephew, J.T. jason Tatum, and shout out to JT, you know, he had his injury getting better, you know, But I was telling them, yo, don't look at it like that. This is for something. But here's the tricky part. It's not always in what you think it is. It may not be for music. You see what I'm saying? Like, what's happening to you here may be needing you to look somewhere else. It may be time. Like I was talking to jt, I said, yo, it may not be about basketball. I said, because you're him in basketball. It may be you need to spend this time with your son. Son. It may be something you need to spend this time with Mom. You may need to go back home and do something. It may not have nothing to do with basketball. So when something affects you that deep, take a full360 look at it. Take a full360 look at everything that's going on around you. Because just because that's what put the brakes on it don't mean that that's the problem. It just means that you needed to stop for something and you have to pay attention to what it is. But that's the only way you gonna grow, period. Now you can get mad, say Fuck that. That motherfucker wrong. And keep going. But something else gonna happen. Yeah, I'm telling you, something else gonna happen. Cause you never fixed it. You put a band aid on the shit. You never fucking addressed it. You know what I mean? And not to bring it back full circle, but that's what I think. Me and her are sitting here to this day because it was always about a full circle. Look. It was never about, you know, does this person bring more positivity to your life than negative? I don't give a fuck who they are, Joe. I don't give a fuck who they are. Kiss. It could be your mama, your daddy, your auntie, your uncle. It could be your fucking kids. Does that person bring more positivity to your life than negative? And if it's not, then you need to get the fuck away from them. And sometimes, like you said, family will be the first ones that'll do it to you. But your family should always bring more positivity than negative. It shouldn't even be close. But if it is. Is. Then you know goddamn well. And anybody else around, man, just stay pos. Put him on a mural. Put him. Hell, yeah, J to be talking. Some, bro. Put the boot on that car. Listen, guys know we love you guys, man. Thank you so much. We appreciate you. We know y' all out promoing the show. You not rewind. What's that? You ain't get on to this. Rewind the T time, man. Yeah. Kiss Cafe. Look at this right here. This see? No grades. No, I don't want that. I don't want that for you. I'm not. I don't want that for you. But you see this? You can look 35. Listen, Tyson, Beckford, what's the numbers we got? We got. Why look 53 when you could be 43? Why be 43 when you could be 32? Now, I don't need you to tell you I never go against her. Sis got a glam squad. Yo, if she tell you she like you with that gray. She lying, bro. She trying to keep you out, Gray. That's cool. I'm saying when I'm getting 101ft for you. Got you. All right. All right. I'm not knocking. No, I'm not knocking at all. We got Kelsey, Joe. He trying to force it. I'm holding on y. I'm holding on me. Give me a deal. I rewind. J said give me rewinded time. That ain't this. That ain't this.
