Irv Gotti, the musical legend, producer extraordinaire. I broke the news that he was passed away. I was getting many, many emails and text messages and DMS about it. We wasn't sure if it was true, but it is true. He was. He's passed away. They're not all the way confirming it was from the Strokes, but word, everybody's pretty much saying is from the Strokes. And if you don't know who Irv Gotti is, we're gonna get into that. I'm. I'm gonna break a couple things down for you with IRV Gotti and 50 Cent situation that is viral right now. I don't know if y'all saw it, but if y'all haven't saw it yet, you will see it today. Everybody's talking about. Because 50, despite Irv Gotti, sad, tragic passing, 50, is trolling them. 50 Cent is trolling them. And a lot of people are saying it's distasteful and can't believe it. But then there's a lot of people saying, hey, you know, Irv Gotti tried to kill 50 Cent. So I'm gonna break down that for you guys today, just so you know what the hell really is going on with that story. Also, Diddy, Chopper, if you remember Chopper from, from making A band back in the day. His interview is going viral and he has basically confirmed a lot of that people been saying about Diddy. And Chopper has grown up to be a, a very mature, well spoken young man. And a lot of people taking his word for what he, you know, taking his word is truth. And I'm gonna be honest, I'm one of those people. Definitely some truth to his words. We're gonna get into that and y'all, it's just what the hell is going on with our late 90s and early 2000 memories, man? It's just when this Irv Gotti thing happened and I just, you know, when it, it's one thing to desperately they replay the music that he brought to us and you start thinking about the times and you just realize life is short and you gotta enjoy it and it's just very emotional.

We will start, let's start with Diddy. I'll get to, I'll get to the, I'll get to Irv Gotti. We'll save that. So basically let's, let's get into the first interview. Part of the interview, if you remember making a band, you remember Chopper. You remember they had to walk and get the cheesecake and Diddy. It was just a lot of, you know, a lot of people didn't even like that back then. They felt like Diddy was belittling them and demeaning them. And we, we, we, we. We didn't like it then, but not a lot of stuff has come out. We really see that Diddy was a monster. So this interview right here is. Is Chopper talking about. Okay, Freddie P. Was another member of the band, if you remember, and Freddie P. Said that Diddy threatened his life. And so Chopper talked about that.
Chopper
Freddie P. What's the backstory behind Puffy telling him that he'll take his life?
Freddie P.
I was. I was deaf. He had us all sitting in the. We was in daddy's house and Fred says something slick to did it and did it felt the way. And he was like, turn the cameras off. He told MTV to turn the cameras off. You heard me. And walk out the room. They walked out the room. He just. We just was sitting there and I. I'm not knowing what's going on. I ain't know. He must have smoke with each other, you dig? But Diddy was letting it loose. I'm talking about. He told Fred, I would. I would buy your whole block, move everybody out the neighborhood, and every time you walk outside, somebody will be shooting at you. That made Fred leave the band. Old Fred was drove. Fred wanted to kill that right there. So when Fred say when people watch Fred interview. You heard me. You just looking at a man that was disappointed. Disappointed and almost destroyed at the same time of how he see the music industry. Fred mean well, you heard me.
Flow
He.
Freddie P.
He really do, you know. And that's my big brother, you know, Blind cripple, crazy. That's still my baby, you know? He mean well. It's just what he went through with that bad boy situation made him look at the music industry really bad. Totally different. Like the music industry and super talented dude. But yeah. Did he. Did he threaten his life? Told me he was going to kill him for sure. And when he said that he was serious. Oh, yeah, he was dead serious. Oh, yeah. He's eats. Yeah. Yeah, he was serious. Did. It was dead serious. Like, a lot of people sleep on dude. Dude cool. Yeah. But dude. Dude ain't cool when he don't want to be cool. I guess that's just everybody, though. And Fred was. Fred was driving that, you dig? And that just couldn't take Fred no more and trying to win his life. So they let you know a lot of other things you did.
Flow
So, yeah, y'all. A lot of so many. So many examples of. Of it just don't look good for Diddy, stuff like this, where, you know, it was a time when Freddie P. Was telling this story. If y'all remember Freddie P. From Florida, he was in the band. And like Felix said, Felix Boatwright said that Chopper was from the New Orleans, and Freddie P. Was telling the story, saying that he. He told this story a long time ago, that Diddy threatened them, threatened to kill him and this and that. Now, at this time, people wasn't really believing it. Only the real insiders knew that side of Diddy. Like, I knew it, a lot of people in the industry knew it, a lot of y'all knew it, but the mainstream didn't know it. And that's the difference, you know? Now the mainstream, the. The average person who might not even know Diddy's probably can't. Might not be able to name 10 Diddy songs or even five Diddy songs. But they know that Diddy is a monster now. And so it's crazy because when these stories were getting told, they. Nobody believed them. Now you have people like Chopper coming out and other people coming out and telling the stories verbatim. And actually, it sounds worse. It sounds worse. It's like the story Freddie P. Told was one thing, but when you hear Chopper tell it and. And you hear what he said, he said Diddy told him. Now you gotta imagine this is how up this is, y'all. Okay? Diddy is the owner of a record label. So you, like, you own a company you got, and you. You hiring young talent. You know how, like, when you. Let's take it to a normal level. Let's say, like, you hiring, you. You. You hiring, you own a chick fil a or you own a little restaurant. You know, most time you hiring kids, you know, teenagers, whatever, their first job. And so that's kind of how I look at artists, you know, when you signing them on your label, most of the time these are kids trying to realize their dreams. And. And, you know, there's a certain innocence when you're dealing with a child with children, you know, or just a young. Know, a young person. And so you have. So the way you fix altercations with them is by threatening their lives. Imagine that Freddy P. Had an issue with Diddy or whatever, and Diddy says to him, I will buy your whole block, meaning I will move, I will pay for Everybody on your block to move out, and only. Only person will be left will be you. And then there will be somebody shooting. There'll be people shooting at you every day. Who says that? Who says that? Like, that type of. That type of statement and that type of especially. I mean, it's bad either way. But when you're in a position of power and this is how you talk to people and this is how you deal with, like, you telling them you a kid. This child, actually, to you, he's a child. You got issues. You got serious issues. And like, I always say one thing about bullies. They always know who to say that stuff to. And then they put it on display for other people to see. But really, you a coward because you wouldn't say that to certain people. 50 Cent had a beef with. With Diddy and talked all kind of stuff to Diddy. Did. Diddy never said that to 50 Cent. He never told 50 Cent, I will buy your whole block, and people gonna be shooting at you. But you say it to this kid who comes from nothing and is trying to make something of themselves. And they think that you are the vessel for that to happen. And turns out, no, you're not. You're telling, I will basically, I will kill you just for having an opinion. It just. It just. It's just something that rubs me the wrong way. I don't know how y'all feel about that. And then on top of that, then Chopper goes on to talk about Diddy and his freaky sexuality and all of that, and he breaks it down, what he saw. And then I'll. Well, I'll take it from there. But hold on. Let's listen to Chopper first. This is. This is. This is. This is ridiculous. He. He's talking about. As I pull it up, what he's basically talking about is he caught Diddy in a compromising position. And when he caught Diddy in that compromising position, he just ended up slamming the door real fast. It's crazy, because this is another story that. That Diddy said what? Like, that was said but never proven to be correct. And so when you hear these stories now, it's like, wait a minute. You said everybody was saying so and so was lying when they said that, but now he'll get tired of the babies.
Freddie P.
So when I hear the stories of you heard me of the situations, it just kind of makes me say, yeah. Sound all right? Because it does sound about right. You can't sit up here and not have it not plague your mind to say, I. I think diddy used to fundable boys too. Do you think? Did he used to funnel with boys? You're asking me? Do you think so?
Chopper
I mean, from what I'm hearing, you know, it sounds like he had to share a man before, you know. I don't know.
Freddie P.
Hey, that's all I'm saying. That's all I'm saying.
Chopper
But for you, you said that you believe he's B. So what did you see that makes you believe that, you know?
Freddie P.
All right, one time I'm in the studio. Don't judge me either. One time I'm in the studio, one time I'm in the studio and maybe, maybe I was tripping cuz I, you know, I. I never really quite been a weed smoker or nothing, you know, but one time I'm smoking weed, brother, and I walk in the studio and just seen uncomfortability to my eyes. How about that? I seen uncomfortability to my eyes, you know, my eyes are very comfortable with things, with things that I see. And I've seen uncomfortability with my eyes. And I'm not going, you know, I'm not laying back there and saying that everything I'm Saying is just 100, you know, that's why it was so easy for me to get out of my contract is because round round knew to let me go, you know what I'm saying? And even, even right now, I just said uncomfortability to my eyes. You could take that how you want it, you heard me. But uncomfortability to my eyes, what I'm not used to seeing two men do when I look at them. A powerful man at that. I walked in the studio and seen two powerful men doing things that was uncomfortable to my eyes. And that's it. So you can take that how you want it. There you have it. My daddy told my dad. My daddy told me to say that My daddy said make sure you let it be known that, that my Paul free. My free. My daddy said you make sure you let it be known if you seen something uncomfortable with your eyes. You did that man left you down bad. You had to. You had to. You got shot, I got shot. I went through a lot. I couldn't even feed my family. Yeah, right. That gay uncomfortable with my eyes, right? Yes, he's gay, okay? But I don't think someone being gay is bad. And that's the thing. I don't think someone being gay is like a curse. If that's their preference, you know, then say bro, that's their preference. Now you Asked me did it do anything left field? And that's why I gave the answer yes. I've seen things when I walked in the studio that was uncomfortable to my eyes with another powerful person in the music business, you know, and that's, that's just that.
Chopper
What was your reaction and what was his reaction when you caught him?
Freddie P.
I walked, I opened the door, I seen what I seen. And I heard him and slammed the door and I heard slam the door. And ever since then, Ron was treating me nice. That's how I was. I couldn't get the Daddy video. I couldn't do a little Daddy video shot for nothing. You heard me, I'm talking about for nothing. But after that happened, I went back home to New Orleans and we were shooting Little Daddy.
Flow
Now that situation, if, if you. Yeah, a lot of people in the chat saying that powerful other man might have been Stevie J. Now let me clear the air and just. And just reiterate what. What Chopper said. And I agree. J, don't nobody, it don't matter who you want to sleep with. That's your business how you do it, but what it points to. If you want to be gay, you can be whatever you want to do. But what it points to is the fact that you're not living in your truth. And if you're not, if you're not going to even be truthful with the world or your people with your sexuality and you want to live a lot air, then we also can assume that you lying about a lot of other shit. And see, that's where people, you know, the people that might think, well, it don't matter if you gay or you this or that. That's not people not even saying that way. Nobody choosing, I don't know, most people, we don't care who you sleep with. That got nothing to do with me. But if we trying to figure out are you a truthful person or you are lying, conniving, deceitful, sneaky, then we gonna lean to that you a sneaky if you won't even be real about who you are. And that's what we finding out. Because if that was, if Diddy was an honest man, he'd just be honest about whatever the hell he doing. Ain't nobody who gives a. But the fact that you will lie lets us know that you will lie about a lot of shit. Just like threatening these people lives. Every time you look around you got a different person saying that, that Diddy said he would kill them. And what I keep saying, the theme of this trial Is everybody ain't lying something wrong when the only way you know how to handle resolution is by giving orders or threatening somebody's life every time. Let's just, let's just off the top of my head and if y'all got some incidences, put them in the chat we talking about Kid Cudi. Carr blew up. We just heard Freddie P. We just co sign about Freddie P saying Diddy threaten his life. So that's Kid Cudi, that's Freddie P. We got, we got people tying him to the, the, the Tupac murder. We got various producers saying that they couldn't get paid and if they tried to get paid, they were threatened with their life. We got the lady who said she saw Diddy shoot him, shoot her in the face in that club incident back in the day with Shine, and then she was threatening it. Threatened. I mean, everybody ain't lying. And then on the. To add insult to injury, Diddy's children ran up on Chopper and, and, and, and had act like they had a. So what happened was Diddy. Diddy had been, you know, Chopper had been giving interviews, telling his story, what he went through, what he saw. And next thing Chopper says he know, the little Mohawk ditties start attacking them. The little children, diddies, the little ditties. And it just speaks to the fact that what is no, no accountability, no reality, nothing, nothing real is going on in the Combs house. Chopper is just giving his story, telling his story like everybody else. But if y'all ever notice, they take right after Diddy, his sons ran up on Ray J. His sons calling and want to want to a threatened Chopper just like Diddy, they know who to like. A. A typical bully, they know who to threaten. A typical bully knows who they can get that off with and who they can't get it off with. It's just so. So. So the names, the whole world talking about this, but the names that we know that Diddy sons ran up on threatening is Ray J and Chopper. The whole world talking about this, though. But y'all cherry pick people that y'all think don't have the means to defend themselves. And when they tell your ass to kick rocks, then you looking stupid. So here's Chopper talking about that.
Chopper
Justin, I heard he got in contact with you.
Freddie P.
Yeah, he. Yeah, he called me on Instagram. So I'm like, what is this? So I pick up, I'm like, what's happening? He was like, man, I don't appreciate what you're doing to my daddy, bro. I don't. Well, he was talking gangster to me. I'm gonna be honest with you. And I had to let him know I would beat the shot. So he was a little boy, right? So I really ain't feel no way. I just. I know at the end of the day he was hurt, but I had to. I had to let him know he was a little boy to me. And you are enjoying the fruits of your labor and part of the fruits of your label that should look sprout ass is enjoying is off the band as well. So shut up.
Flow
Like.
Freddie P.
Like shut your ass up and just go. Go some. Well, just shut up. That's just how I feel about that. Ain't no. Ain't no talking gangster to me. I don't play that. You dig? So I had to let him know I don't play that little. If you see me, I will punch on your face. You don't want that. Great. So how about this here? Mind your business and don't call my Instagram. Get your last over there. So get your last. Your fake tough ass over there, little sucker. Little sucker. Get your little duck ass over there. Little boy playing with me, boy. I'm six, seven. I will beat the out your last. Talking tough to me. And they. And. And recently they've been known for doing that. Yeah. Trying to press like I'm. I'm sitting. I don't play that. I will beat the out your last. I am six, seven. I am not shot.
Flow
And I'm about this Just a dumpster fire, y'all, and make sure y'all like the live. Everybody in the live, please like it and share it. I forgot to remind y'all at the start of the show. My bad. But just a clusterfuck. Dumpster fire. Kids running around mad. How you mad at people telling their story. And the whole world is talking about this shit. How are you mad? But they don't even know. Even the kids running around are making Diddy look bad and. And not. And not bringing anything positive to the situation. Your father in there, he bout to ride anyway. But y'all making sure he rot by running around wanting to be tough. And ain't nobody buying it. I don't think nobody listening to this podcast on Apple and Spotify. I don't think anybody watching this pack podcast on YouTube is buying that Diddy sons are the tough gangsters that we need to be worried about. It's just stupid. It looks bad. It further drives home the point that ain't no realness going on. No. No. Nothing real going on in the Combs house, period. Even now with your father in prison, in jail, whatever you want to call it, you still running around threatening and doing stupid shit. Y'all can't wait for this trial to start and. And get over with. For real, to be honest, is dragging right now. We do have a super exceeding indictment or not the superseded diamond. I'm sorry, the, the enterprise letter or whatever that thing is. They said they supposed to be spelling out everything that's going on. We do have that coming up soon because this is just getting out of hand. But I do like the fact that everybody is starting to speak their mind now. Everybody is starting to speak their mind and it's becoming, it's becoming common to tell what the happened back in the day with Diddy. Indeed. Can you imagine? It's still more stories we ain't heard yet. When that trial start, I told y'all from the beginning, when this trial start, it is going to hijack the world. I don't know if y'all were old or some of y'all old enough to know how to OJ Trial, hijack the world, but this is going to be like that. Because as much information, as many details that have come out, there are many more, a hundred times more that are sealed and won't come out until the trial. And that is what I'm trying to get people to understand. Because even the, the people who are still Diddy apologists are saying, well, I ain't seen no real evidence. They don't got this. They don't. I won't. You know, they're, you know, just saying there's no evidence and blah, blah, blah, Right? But the trial ain't even started yet. All this stuff you hearing is just the appetizers. The real, the real meal ain't even came out yet. So I'm telling you, brace yourself because when this trial does get started, it's way more coming out, way more intricate. Text message details, video details, 911 calls we gonna hear. People ain't ready. We ready. The Float the Flow show. No Filter crew. We ready for it. Because I can just tell through the comments, I can tell through my Apple Spotify fan mail that anybody in tune to this show, we won't be surprised. But a lot of the general public will be because they, A lot of people are thinking that they have put all the evidence out or something. It's like, nah, they just put out enough to. That they can put out to let you know what the hell going on. Trust me, is way more co. Conspirators which, you know, they supposed to be naming them In March between March 7, March 17, they will be name it. Who's else? Everybody else is involved. And a lot of those people who are involved, like record execs, they have already. If you was watching my old videos, I already covered. I covered it a while ago. But. But a lot of the record executives that. That worked with Diddy or did whatever with Diddy, maybe some of them was helping and didn't know or involuntarily was helping them do illegal stuff, men and women included, they have already sent in letters saying that they are ready to talk. This was months and months and months and months ago, I believe. And one of them, they were. I don't know, is it Warner Brothers, one of the big labels. There's a female. I don't want to name her name because I don't have the exact information in front of me. But I'm going to give you the gist of it. She's a female. She runs. I don't even think it's Warner Brother, one of those big labels. She runs it. You would never think she would be caught up in anything. She has been named in one of the Diddy lawsuits, and she immediately had her lawyer draft up a letter saying that she is willing to cooperate and tell whatever she needs to tell. And that's just one big record exec. And there. I'm sure there are more that are willing to talk, but that just gives you example. Everybody has took the gloves off. Everybody is like, I will talk, whatever. And when I say everybody, I'm even including Diddy. There was an article saying. And. And this was an article that I meant to go over with you guys yesterday and I forgot. So go over it today. There's an article that says that Diddy is scared to death that he's going to be Epstein. They are saying that Diddy is willing to talk and actually wants to talk, to try to condense his sentence or get out or, you know, whatever he think is can happen by him talking. But what they're saying is Diddy is so high and they've raided his house, they raided all his houses. They got all type of evidence. So literally they kind of have everything they need. They have what they need. So in order for Diddy to be of any value as far as, you know, getting a plea or talking a plea deal and all of that, he's going to have to tell on somebody bigger than him. And Diddy knows that if he does that, there's a 99.999999% with a repeating sign over the 999. There's a 99.9% chance that Diddy will be unalived. And because of this, they have Diddy under high alert as far as they're, they're quote unquote protecting him. High alert because of this. So what I so with the article details is Diddy has been actively trying to give up information, but he ain't giving up nothing of value like he's giving up information or is willing to give information that they either already know or somebody smaller than him so they don't give a. So he is in a dilemma right now as we do this podcast, of trying to figure out if there's some he can tell that will help his case but not kill him or not cause him to be killed or, or you know, some mysterious suicide, pneumonia, whatever. You, you know, what's been going on. Exactly. Amy got it right. And really the elephant in the room is Clive. It ain't no secret if you've been following this Diddy and just the industry as a whole. Clive Davis is a monster. And it's plenty of people, not just bloggers. There are, there are FBI people, there are detectives who have spoke about the many things Clive Davis has been caught up in. Money laundering, with drug folks, all kind of stuff, grooming and, and, but hiding it as mentoring people who want to come in the music industry. They always thought it was funny. How did he have. Was. Had fell flat on his face early on when he was young in the music industry and he was given a second life by Clive Davis and a 50 million dollar deal that to this day all type of record execs are like, I don't think that, that don't make sense. How did he get that? Not to mention the fact that Clive Davis says there was a male person in the music industry. He named one of the males that he talked to not in the industry, but he said it was a person in the industry that he had a relationship with that he would never tell. A lot of people think that's Diddy. Who knows? But what we do know that Clive has done is, is, is launder money with, with, with, with cartels and, and, and, and drug lords. So I, if you, if he did that, there's no telling what else he might do. So we'll continue to watch this shit and watch our 90s and early 2000s. Our early 2000s and 90s is just crumbling. Man. I don't even know what to say. People don't understand. I'm only giving the facts and telling you exactly how I feel. But this don't feel good. This is my, this is the music and the people I grew up to. And I thought the world of. I didn't know nothing about all this when I was a kid. I was just dancing. I was just. I remember going to the Diddy, Puff Daddy and the Family concert back in the 90s. I had my shiny suit on. I had a red, shiny little Tommy Hilfiger suit. I thought I was doing my thing. And then to grow up and. And hear about all these people being monsters, this don't feel good. But I gotta keep it real. I gotta tell the truth. And I'm gonna always tell y'all how I feel about it. Regardless of if he was my hero back in the day or if I couldn't stand his ass. It just like, like, like, like they saying, the music just don't feel the same. And so when you say that, that's a perfect segue to the Irv Gotti situation in the 50 cent. But before I get to that, definitely have to announce the subscribers of the day, Runner up, subscriber of the day. And runner up is just as good as the champion, because I appreciate, as a matter of fact, we all appreciate all the subscribers because they, they, they, they keep the lights on and allow us to continue to grow this podcast and give us a platform to talk about the shit we want to talk about. And so I appreciate anybody that, that, that donates, whether you give the minimum a $3 subscription or you give the maximum. I have quite a few people that have gave $23 on a subscription. I mean, when people value what you do and want to and are willing to show you like that, it makes it easy to get your ass out of bed at 5am and get ready for this show and turn on the lights at 7:30 and do what we do and talk about this shit every day. So I appreciate it. So. Runner up, first subscriber of the day is Sierra Marie. Sierra Marie, I just want to definitely thank you and your family and friends for subscribing. I will keep the content coming, exclusive content, but the, the $3 subscription means a lot. It means we're growing. As a matter of fact, we just hit 75,000 podcast downloads. Guys, independent, we did 75,000 podcast downloads in less than 90 days. That's amazing. And I owe that to y'all and people like Sierra Marie, so thank you. But the champion number one subscriber of the day and subscriber of the day is the one of that day. The person of that day that gave the highest subscription is Diana Bush.

I don't need nobody. If we do take them on, it's just somebody who want to help get our message out. But I don't want to have to take nothing from nobody. So that is my goal and this is what I'm working hard for. So if you can subscribe, please do. As you can see, like y'all know, my Tick Tock got banned for telling the truth. I ain't cry. I ain't going tick tock talking about, hey, follow this and follow that. Tick tock. I will still go on there later on down the line, but it'll just be for fun. I'll get my account back because I miss the actual people there. I don't give a about Tick Tock. But I, I miss my people and they miss me. But I say all that to say I care more. I could just say bubblegum stuff. I could get on here and just talk about what LeBron and, and basketball and, and, and, and award shows and, and that's it. I would never do that. I'm going to talk about real shit and anybody that don't like that, then take your ass on. So I was, I had already made it on Tik Tok. If I was one of them fake people, I could just talked about any little stupid thing and get millions of views and make money. That's just not my style now. Yeah, I'll talk about some stupid shit because who won't? But at the end of the day, 80% of what come out my mouth on my platform gonna be about real shit that's going on and stuff that we want to talk about. So I appreciate the subscriptions. I didn't want to be long Winded. But just Let y'all know, 75,000 podcast downloads in less than 90 days from an independent podcast is is. We all deserve a pat on our back. All of y'all, me included. We all did this. And just think, 90 days ago, I didn't even know what the fuck I was going. I didn't even know I was going to have a podcast. And y'all helped me name it Ain't Life Beautiful? But we got to get to this Irv Gotti thing and, and what's going on right now, y'all is Irv Gotti passed. If you don't know who Irv Gotti is. Irv Gotti started the label Murder Inc. But he's also was a well known producer in. Even before that he produced songs like Can I Live by Jay Z. I don't know if y'all remember that. Can I Live. That's Jay Z. He produced that. He produced and pushed Foolish by Ashanti. That was the big hit from Murder Inc. I don't want to sing it. But y'all know I wish I had. I wish I had somebody that could sing. But y'all know that most famous Ashanti song that had like the Biggie, One More Chance in it. Something like see My days are Cold without you. Some like that. He. That was the biggest hit on Murder Inc. And man, and then you got the JLO songs and you know, right now I'm taking all this Holly Weird away out of this part of the conversation. We're gonna just talk about the music and what happened. Because like I tell people, if we, if we don't want, if we don't even want to discuss their mute. The music of people who caught up in weird, then we don't have nothing to talk about no more. So we gotta sometimes separate it. So right now we just talking about the music. We know JLO ain't. But Irv Gotti, you know, brought that Jenny, a lot of that Jenny of the Block and Ja Rule, all that sound, man, all these songs, man, if you go through that Irv Gotti, Murder Inc. With, with Ashanti and Lloyd. Y'all remember the Lloyd song, man, I'm telling y'all, when I was starting this podcast, when I was getting ready for this podcast this morning, it hadn't even hit me. Like I was just like, damn, Irv Gotti gone. I knew it was fucked up. But when I started playing Foolish by Ashanti, when I played Can I Live by Jay Z, it just, man, it made me feel like, wow, man. And he was only, what, 54 years old. But what's going on, y'all? Is he in his death? 50 Cent has been trolling. 50 Cent has been trolling the hell out of Irv Gotti. When. When it. When it was announced that Irv Gotti was. Was. Was possibly in a vegetative state, 50 Cent posted on his Instagram page, he said, man, I'm. I'm mad that. That Irv Gotti is. I'm paraphrasing, but I'm mad that Irv Gotti is gone, because I wanted him to see my new show, something like LOL or something like that. And that was when the news. When the rumors were going. Then when it was announced that he was actually gone, 50 Cent said he posted a. A picture of him smoking a hookah. And he said, I'm smoking on that Gotti pack. And some. Some of y'all old heads might not know what that terminology means, but when somebody say, I'm smoking on that, so. And so Pack, that's what you say when one of your ops or one of your enemies has passed or just someone has passed. So if somebody passed, name J and the person will say, I'm smoking on that J pack. So that's what 50 Cent did. And people went crazy, as you could imagine. Like, they said, 50 cent need to grow up. They saying, 50 cent, karma gonna come for his ass. And then you had a lot of people kind of standing up for 50 cents saying, Irv tried to kill him. So what I wanted to do before we got out of here today is give y'all a little background on. So when y'all, as y'all see this unfold, you will understand what the hell going on, because a lot of people don't really know. So the 50 Cent and Irv Gotti is one of the most serious beefs and real beefs that ever went on. And when you say Irv Gotti, I'm talking about Murder, Inc. Ja Rule and 50 Cent. And so it all started. Irv Gotti and his crew allegedly stabbed 50 Cent in a. In the studio. It was a studio incident. And so without. Where it all stemmed from is that 50, 50 and ja rule both lived or from Jamaica Queen. I mean, from Queens. And so Ja Rule's chain was snatched, okay, by somebody allegedly, who was cool with 50 cent praying. The muscle behind the muscle and money behind Irv Gotti was the supreme team, which Supreme. A guy was the leader. So supreme got the guy Ja Rule's chain back. But Ja rule always blamed 50 and I'm paraphrasing and giving you the skinny because this story could go hours. But so what happened was J. J saw 50 after that in the studio. And they were both. So he, Ja Rule and Irv got. And everybody went in there, jumped 50, allegedly stabbed him. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Dennis Beef got out of control from here. Cause now you got a chain snatch, a stabbing now just elevate. People are saying, you know, who gonna do more, who gonna do more? So with supreme backing up Ja Rule, they were trying to blackball 50 Cent out of the industry because they wanted to get rid of him and keep riding high. Because Murder Inc. Was doing a thing and 50 was coming. 50 wasn't 50 that we know now, but he was gaining momentum. And 50 would put out a lot of records talking about all this that was going on, all the shootout this and that. And it all came to a head when 50 Cent was shot up nine times at his grandmother house. Now, a lot, for a long time, the rumor was it was a guy named Homo. And as you remember in the famous song mini man, when 50 Cent said, homo shot me, three weeks later, he got shot down. Now, it's clear that I'm here for a real reason, because he got hit like I got hit, but he ain't fucking breathing. So you remember that if you remember Mini Man. But through FBI records and through investigations, come to find out the person who really shot 50 was a person who, after he shot 50, Murder Inc. Elevated him to be JA Rules personal bodyguard. So the guy who Irv allegedly, Irv Gotti, who working with supreme, they work together to have that guy, was supposed to go kill 50. 50 survived. And what made Irv and Murder, Inc. And all them even look more suspicious is the same guy who shot 50 was promoted and given the job of being Ja Rule's personal security. And Ja Rule was, say, as big as Kendrick Lamar is right now. Ja Rule was in that stratosphere at this time. So for you to be his personal bodyguard says a lot. Like, it's like, oh, you, you big time, you. You know, so they saying, okay, so he promoted him. So 50 went on to use that same shooting, and it actually catapulted him because he. It was the story of it. And he told everything that happen. And. And in so many words, Irv Gotti even admitted that they had something to do with it without admitting it. He often called 50 a snitch and said, like, it was the ultimate fake out because 50 tried to be this tough guy and whatever, whatever. But he telling on us. So how we. These are. This is Irv's own words. And so when you dig into it, 50 goes on. And then what happened after the shooting? 50 gained so much momentum. He signed by Eminem and, and Dre after that and literally he crushed Irv. He crushed Irv Gotti and, and Murder Inc. Like to the point. It's funny, I got a perfect scenario for you that might not know exactly how bad it was. Do you see what Kendrick Lamar just did to Drake? Like, do you see how Drake went from the cat's meow to the cat's poop? He went from number one to not even listed at all right now like people, everything Drake does, he gets trolled for because Kendrick has exposed him to the culture. For lack of better words, that exact same thing is what 50 cent did to JA rule in real time. And if you were there, let me know you were there in the chat. If you were there, you know that this is literally a parallel of this. Kendrick Drake is a parallel because Ja Rule was million sold number one. And this was Irv Gotti's artist. This was the head artist on Murder Inc. Ja rule was killing 50 came and changed the whole narrative. Murder Inc. Had to end up changing their name. Even though that had something to do with the Fed case they caught too. But Murder Inc. Murder Inc. Was literally wiped from the map behind this. And so I say all that to say I'm not saying one bit that 50 Cent is right for trolling him. Because if it was me, it's hard for me to say if I would troll, you know, in death. I'm. I just don't see me doing that. No matter what happened. I don't know, but who knows until that happens to you. But what I am saying is I'm giving some context to the people who might not know that it's pretty much common knowledge that Irv Gotti supreme and that whole crew tried to kill 50 Cent. Now true, it was a back and forth though. It wasn't one sided. It's just that these are the facts. So I'm just saying that to say no, I'm not agreeing with 50 doing, but I'm letting you, I'm just letting it. Giving you guys a chance to know both sides of what the hell going on and why 50 is trolling because you know, rest in peace, Irv Gotti. I have. I'm not choosing those size. I don't have a dog in this fight at all. I think it's terrible that Irv gotti is gone. Which is why I made sure in this episode that I told every, you know, told it the good things he did and everything. I'm just giving you the story that's out there and. But if somebody tried to kill you at your grandmother's house, I don't know how many tears you gonna shed when they not here. So I don't know. So, like I said, you will see, that's probably the most talked about thing online right now is 50 Cent trolling Irv Gotti and everybody going crazy about it. And like I said, I could see both sides. I could see the people saying, like, damn, 50, give it up. Like 50, you doing well. You know, you, you. It was 20, 30 years ago. Whatever happened, happened, blah, blah, blah. I could see that side, but I also could see the side of people saying, hey, you don't know how you would react or. Or what, Joe, you know, what your reaction would be if somebody tried to kill you. And that's just that. But at the end of the day, y'all rest in peace. To Irv Gotti. He was a musical legend, Produced a lot of songs, a lot of memories. Like I said, go back and listen to that Ashanti Murder Inc. Album. Go back and listen to Lloyd. Even listen to some of those old Ja Rule hits. Your lips, your eyes love it. When you know all that. All that Ja Rule funny singing. Go listen to. To it. And I guarantee you, if you from that era and you had fun in that era, it's going to bring back some memories. But it's also going to make you feel like, damn, man, life short. I need to really pay more attention and appreciate the moments. And I'm going to leave it there today on the Flow show, no filter. I appreciate everybody. See y'all tomorrow. And as always, I love y'all. And I'm out.
