00:02:49
Speaker 2: Thinking like that back then. Remember he used to be a little bit quiet.
00:02:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was a little quiet, a little bit lost. Stan dolphis even in the street. You know what I'm saying. We were gonna street it. So he's just trying to figure it out. But you know, you know, the crew love We always bring everybody around when we get an in position.
00:03:04
Speaker 3: Definitely what I mean, And so I just want the people to know, like, who was some of your influences and music growing up?
00:03:10
Speaker 1: Oh, definitely definitely Nas, Definitely Jay, definitely big in POC. I mean those are the top four. My fifth one on my list would be Pun. You know he was He was a great Yeah, Peter Punt. He was a He was a great, great lyricist, one of the best, you know what I mean. So as far as being influenced that way and wanting a rap, I mean, when I first heard our it ain't hard to tell. It was crazy. It was on from there. But not only that. You when you used to come through the hood and battle, you know what I'm saying. You used to come bring me to Marcy probably was like eleven ten years old. Used to take me to the other side with Batman and them rest in peace Batman, Like, Yo, listen, man, here this little dude's spit. I think I was ahead of my time then, you know what I'm saying. Definitely, Yeah, That's that's what got me to get low.
00:04:01
Speaker 2: Man, That's what I was just about to say. Like, that's what I was just about to say.
00:04:05
Speaker 3: Like when we started to get low days, I remember, you know, it was me Jeter h at first, and then it was like, yo, we gotta go school.
00:04:14
Speaker 1: Pee.
00:04:15
Speaker 2: I remember coming tomorrow to Cooper. Yo, this is the craziest shit.
00:04:20
Speaker 1: Man.
00:04:20
Speaker 2: I ain't see P in a while, right, but we like, Yo, we're gonna start this label.
00:04:23
Speaker 3: Let me go check my dog. Go down to the projects. Some accing niggas around.
00:04:28
Speaker 1: Yo.
00:04:28
Speaker 3: We're proofat, We're proofat. Niggas like, yo, he moving around somewhere. So I go to the White Castle that's up the block. I'm like, eventually when I'm done here it's the hood, I'm gonna see P somewhere leaving White Castle.
00:04:41
Speaker 2: Who coming down the block?
00:04:42
Speaker 1: Back by the projects? Right? Living? Right? But you wasn't just walking normal. You was hype and you was like, I'm like, yo, Pee, what up? My nigga? Come ons, go to the studio.
00:04:53
Speaker 2: I want high let you.
00:04:54
Speaker 1: You're like, nah am, these niggas are playing with me, and I'm like, yo, what happened? You Like Nigga
pulled up the shirt had the joint. Remember you remember what you said to me? Yeah, what you said, Yeah, niggas, niggas. Niggas try to jump out on me and get a little crazy. But Nigga said, niggas tried to kidnap me. I'm gonna kill these niggas. Bleak I'm like those those those were false accusations because because what happened was, you know, like like my cousin said, you're not tough enough unless something happen to you. So what happened was there was a couple of dudes that just jumped out of car thought thinking that they was gonna do what they was gonna do. But I'm you know, I'm extra gangster, so that that ain't happen, you know what I'm saying. So when I seen Blizzle, obviously I had to hamm on me. When you came and got me, I was actually controlling the block. You was moving around like that's what I'm like, where the fuck? P ha? This nigga came around with the eagle eye, like now I'm on the hunt for these niggas.
00:05:46
Speaker 3: Tried to spin through. Yeah, I was spinning. I'm like, Pete, come on, man, let's go to the steward. Chop it up man.
00:05:51
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, you came to the stew with the rascal or Yeah, still had the joint on me, man, But I'm right off the block. Though. It was treacherous. I remember that at that day vividly, bro, because even when we was leaving, he was like, Yo, I'm gonna call a cab, and I'm like, nah, I can't let you jump in the cab with the Rosco niggag. That's a fact word up fat And that right there changed everything.
00:06:14
Speaker 2: No, That's what I was gonna ask you.
00:06:17
Speaker 3: What was your transition you felt like from because bro, you was just fresh off the block to Baseline studio and then everything from their chain.
00:06:27
Speaker 2: So how was it for you going through that?
00:06:30
Speaker 1: My transition was when I when I caught all them cases out of ten murder robbery, right facing the fire of twenty five, and then I get back the baseline, I'm like, damn, I'm gonna miss all this. And I just had a kid and all that man man man man right right right, my son? Who heard you know what I'm saying. But I had them cases right and I and and I happened to beat the case. So so Lord Willing, when I beat the case, I was able to go back to baseline and see what I really had in front of me. You see what I'm saying. And then you gave me the talk like, yo, listen, you calling me for bill money. I'm getting I was getting locked up a lot that year. You calling me for bill money and this that and the third what you're gonna do? We just spent a million dollars on the studio budget. H just got locked up. What you're gonna do? We'll hold near you. I'm like, this is this is a trick question. What you mean what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna do this, that's right right. So from there was the actual transition from me changing you know what I'm saying, and trying to make it better for myself because I felt like I didn't want to lose out on an opportunity that was right in front of me.
00:07:33
Speaker 2: That's a fact, bro, you know what I mean?
00:07:35
Speaker 3: We done told the world, did numerous records, my nigga, Yo, what's what's one of your favorite cities you think we hit?
00:07:42
Speaker 1: Like? Definitely definitely Miami. Oh Miami. When I when I got to the Yams, I wanted to move there. You heard me. It was a moviember. It's different. I'm twenty years old, I'm off the block. We're going on promo tour. We hit Miami. It's like there's nothing never seen before. Bro. It was different, man, the girls was different. Back then. It was it was it was crazy. It was no week. We got situations now, so I ain't gonna say how crazy it was, but it was crazy.
00:08:10
Speaker 3: It was crazy, just one in Mickey D's Little Burger Kids.
00:08:15
Speaker 1: It was crazy.
00:08:15
Speaker 2: It was a little cool.
00:08:16
Speaker 3: Now, girls want felipe child crustaceans expensive listen.
00:08:22
Speaker 1: We had the group we had, We had the groupies before fifty fucked it up? Yo, right, Yo, we had the groupies before fifty came in at oh three and made that groupie.
00:08:31
Speaker 2: Song group be fucked it up groupie love. That's what I said.
00:08:35
Speaker 1: I'm not a groupie right, like Yo, what happened? It was just cool with it. They was traveling from state to state to see us. Yo.
00:08:43
Speaker 2: It was all over the place, Yo, y'all niggas was all some difference.
00:08:46
Speaker 1: Its crazy, y'all.
00:08:47
Speaker 3: Niggas were first with the Canada with me, Yo, Toronto. It's when I thought, that's what I'm like, Yo, I think I lost my artists. Man, Right, we wake up in the morning, it's time to leave, like yo, Win is proof? Where's Jeter? You know you're knocking on niggas doors. You're doing room call hold, you know, call the room, send security the room. Niggas open up the door and these niggas. It's not dead, right, yo, Where these niggas at outside?
00:09:14
Speaker 1: Remember back then niggas had beeper cell phones, was very very slim. Niggas get night till weekends. Cuz right right right, especially when he was out of town, get out of town.
00:09:27
Speaker 3: So I'm hitting niggas, yo. We got niggas at niggas like Yo, we went to these chicks crib. I'm like, yo, are y'all crazy? You don't leave the hotel with go to a chick crib. You don't know in the country.
00:09:39
Speaker 1: We got from right right, right, right right right, so man right cool, like we're good. We ain't know no better, but we was learning and look them lessons, them lessons we got when we was kids, traveled onto the adulthood right because simple things like knowing where you at what you're doing. One time we was in La right all of us poem like yo, listen, any of y'all know where the hotel at right now? Nobody knew where it was at right right from there from there on, I knew as soon as we get there, any location, look at the hotel phone and got the address on that Write that down. So we know where we're going because we was moving so much.
And that's what I mean what I'm saying.
00:10:17
Speaker 3: My reason in asking y'all at do anybody know where the hotel at was? Because remember at that time LA was so up that remember when them shots ring out, everybody scattered like roaches, everybody running in different directions.
00:10:31
Speaker 1: And the last thing you want to do is run into the drama or run to where you don't even know where you're going, right, you know what I mean?
00:10:38
Speaker 3: So you got to know where you're going, just you know anything that happen. So I felt like you had to be on point anywhere you went, man. So I tried to always make sure y'all understood that because the last thing I wanted to do was come back to Cooper and tell your.
00:10:52
Speaker 1: Moms right right, right right right, of course, you know what I'm saying. Of course we were. It was no playbook on it. Check this out. You can't got me off the block right straight up?

00:13:06
Speaker 3: Let's talk about that session because Hole, if you want to really be technical, you know how we got that beat. How we got that beat because Hole violated, at least in my mind it was violations.
00:13:20
Speaker 1: Remember, Hove had Scott Storch to the studio member for a week because him and this man smoking him big Blunt. Now, niggas was rolling.
00:13:28
Speaker 3: Gloss of hill right, yo, crazy. So he was cooking up for like a week. Every beat he was playing JJ was like nine nine. So it got to like the fifth day the way, I'm.

He was like you like that, It's like, let me get that beat up. That's how he got the beat is because Jay was turning down ship and I'm sitting in there just listening, like you know, like the right, right, right right, And that's how we got it.

00:33:03

00:33:05
Speaker 3: Like after the Rockefeller breakup, you know what I mean, I fell back from music.
00:33:10
Speaker 1: I always respected you.
00:33:12
Speaker 3: Like, I feel like out of all the artists that I ever signed, and this is no disrespect to them, some of them is, you know, it's just is what it is. Yeah, a lot of them got the same gang, been around the same gang and received the same knowledge you got. But I feel like out of every artist that I had signed to get low or even that I just called my friend as an artist. You're the only one who picked up the knowledge and ran with it. Yeah, a lot of people, I feel like just stopped and waited on music.
00:33:42
Speaker 1: You never waited on music. Well, I think because I was a hustler before I even came That's right, right, Like I said, I ran. I ran a block in my neighborhood off aggression, right, So I came in with the mentality. The only reason why I stopped was because you made me. You told you asked me to stop. Right, we gotta get as much gonna be there, so it's gonna be that. But I always had the mentality. So I was just picking up game along the way. That's right, you know what I'm saying, and learning so and from that thing.
00:34:09
Speaker 3: You don't bridge your way into now. You do a lot of business with main tho oh man and my brother shout out the thing. Yeah, may no date, May no Day on Sunday, he got a date.
00:34:17
Speaker
1: You know that that that in the city, you know, contributed to him and he made it on his mother's day, August sixteenth. Son, you know what it is, Brooklyn baby, Yeah, shout out the main. That's my brother. We got a great relationship that that happened naturally, and that's because we in a space where we all we all grew and we know how to conduct ourselves and move. Like I said, Like I said earlier, those lessons from there made me the man that I am today. Same with gigs. Shout out the gigs in London. I seen you out there like then with gigs man.
00:34:49
Speaker 3: Shout out my len gigs, everybody.
00:34:52
Speaker 2: My dude grew out there.
00:34:53
Speaker 1: You know what it is, London mind London things. Man, Yeah, Man, shout out, Shout out the gigs man. So it's it's like you know, when when you learn how to move and you get inside them spaces, law of attraction is gonna get you in any room, that's right, you know what I'm saying. And then the way and then the way you are and conduct yourself, that's that's gonna get you even further than it's built off respect, you know what I'm saying. So that's the one thing I always had. So that's what got us lit out here. Man. We worldwide. We're moving all over the place. I got cribs in four different four different states. I'm all over he calling me where you act? Can you cannot get the Jerseys. I got the crib in Jerseys. I just came from Charlotte, though it came from the crib down in You know what I'm saying. When you get the Vegas, I got the crib in Vegas right right? You know what I mean? Yo?
00:35:37
Speaker 3: So speaking of Vegas, man, you in Vegas, make sure you pull up the Roma kitchen, that huskin ball patio and car. We got the restaurants. If you got the crib out there, we got the restaurants for you to eat too.
00:35:47
Speaker 1: Cub that cart, yeah yeah, we're pulling up there, yeah yo, sure, Yo. What advice?
00:35:54
Speaker 3: Because I just felt like the getload situation never happened because I could fell a breakup happened at the same time, like.
00:36:03
Speaker 2: We built it up to a point to get there.
00:36:06
Speaker 3: So it kind of like hindered whatever the dreams and hope to have for every artist that I was dealing with. You g the age proof, I mean, Cali, all of y'all. So what advice would you give an artist who might have been through the same path where the dominoes just didn't fall right.
00:36:24
Speaker 1: They needed them to take control of your own destiny. We were sitting around waiting when we should have moved, like how Dipset was moving. They was making their own videos. We was waiting to shoot videos for a million dollars. There was other things that we could have did. So take control of your your bring your package, you bring your proposal to the table. Don't just sit around and wait for somebody to feed you. You know what I'm saying. So that's the that's the advice I would give to anybody in any business situation out there. Make sure that you have yourself together and you bring a value to the table and not wait around for people to actually feed you. That's the That's the worst thing you could ever do. You know what I'm saying. Like right now, we're talking duce. I'm trying to get a duce. I'm about to get a duce party going on in Charlotte. Shout out my guys. You know what I'm saying. Shout out the mic and MEDUSA lounge. You know you know what I'm saying. You got out the skul out there.

00:48:44
Speaker 1: Right right right right right right right, right right right. I'm gonna tell you. I'm gonna tell you when to hit me when we when we stopped touring, that was a reality pill, bro ya. I got on check it out. I got online right. I came from chores, man, But we don't get on lines, bro through the back door. It was a fat right. So the guys in my neighborhood shout out the lithough, shout out the coaches, shout out the c right. The guys in my neighborhood was doing it in the neighborhood. But they didn't know the difference, though, So it's no pun on on what I'm about to say, because they were super lick. But when I came back off the road and it kind of stopped, and I started going out with my guys in the neighborhood, and you at that front, they got on the line. I say, y'all niggas do lines, bro, Like, what is this? I didn't understand what was going on because member, I came off the block. You put the rock chain on me, the real one, not the fake ones. Real ones put the rock chain on me right and it threw me in front of twenty thousand people. It was no rule book. I didn't know what was going on. Line.
00:49:45
Speaker 2: We backdoor gang every back door to the month.
00:49:48
Speaker 1: We back door to the stage with all that boing, but that reality pillow right when I got off the road and start hitting, I said, damn son, niggas, ain't niggas, ain't like tap. Now we're jumping off stages. We got non cars behind us. No bro, every show, think about this, right, if you felt like that for that, think about this.
00:50:11
Speaker 2: I went to the club. In the club paid me.
00:50:16
Speaker 1: Right. That was my whole career.
00:50:18
Speaker 3: Right now, I go to the club and try and make you buy my product, okay, And I'm going through the front door, not going through the.
00:50:26
Speaker 1: Back door, right right right right right right right to the front door.
00:50:29
Speaker 2: Now I'm responsible for that type of ship.
00:50:31
Speaker 3: So when you
come from YO, they in the crowd to see me right now, I'm there making sure they got the bottles to see them.
00:50:40
Speaker 1: That's a way different experience, way different experience.
00:50:43
Speaker 3: That's why I tell niggas man that reality pill. You could run from it, but it's gonna catch up to you.
00:50:48
Speaker 1: Man. Eventually, it's gonna catch up to you, and one day you're gonna have to accept it's over. Bring you at right, And that's what that's what we had to do. That's why I love Cares one record, it's always my favorite. Which one?
00:51:00
Speaker 2: Do you ever think about when you out of here?
00:51:05
Speaker 1: Yo? Niggas is out of here for real? Boy? When they out of here? Yeah, yeah, get you out of here because he told niggas that eighty eight. Now you ever think about when you out of here? I ain't never think about it for real until that ship hit. Boy, when you stop that road man, when you're on a road and you kids and you jumping on stages like that and you and you're coming from the block and it's no really road book, no rules on what's going on, and you just learning as you go, and then the ship stop and that's when you know what just happened. So for another thing, I would tell artist, whatever you do and keep going because when that ship stopped, you gonna realize exactly what was going on. That's right, you know what I'm saying.
00:51:48
Speaker 3: In the fund zone for so long that you don't realize you accomplish it so much shit. Right when it's over, you look back and be like, damn, holy I didn't I didn't appreciate that moment.
00:51:58
Speaker 2: I didn't take my time.
00:52:00
Speaker 3: Like one thing I regret about us as a crew moving with the getload situation and the baseline and all of that.
00:52:07
Speaker 1: People, we didn't take no pictures. We didn't. We didn't take no pictures. We didn't. We have no memories and none of that shit just in that mind. But we don't have no physical memories of the things we accomplished, the places we've been. You know, Bro, we didn't. If we had Instagram names, it would have been too crazy, Bro, we would have We would have been the first streamers probably, you would have definitely you and Geda the way y'all niggas was talking ship, ye oh my god, y'all.
00:52:32

00:52:35
Speaker 1: Shout out to GdK man it is his white birthday and things like that right, you don't care you definitely forever him and h money bags for sure. Yeah that's right. But yeah, you know what, I ain't really start taking pictures until like two thousand and nine. You know what I'm saying, we grew up with. We wasn't picturing red. That wasn't it ducking that, you know what I'm saying, Like that was it was. It's a different time now, but I always say that too, like we really don't got no pictures from backround. You gotta think about it. Kanye West, just jay Z right with Jay right, just blaze right, Cameron, Mariah Carry, everybody coming through the studio at this time, it's a baseline student Mary j Mary, Damn. Everybody came through the studio bro at this time where we wasn't picture.

That shit is crazy, man, G Like, do you do you look back and think that you passed up on any opportunities that you regret that you look at like, damn, I should have been more serious about that.
00:53:54
Speaker 1: No, not really. I think I'm in the best space of my life. I think I think all those lessons let me up to the point where I can be a successful man today, you know what I'm saying. And also I like to give you your flowers and thank you for that because you got me out of You put me in a in a space where you changed my environment, and I believe that today, grown as a growing man, I believe environment is everything. I wasn't stuck on the block every day, I had baseline studio to go to. I was in the trenches for real. I was really like that outside controlling, controlling my situation. And when I when I left there and went the baseline to Manhattan every every day, it changed my life. You took me on a road, traveling very generous, you know what I'm saying, everywhere for five years. Yeah, we was getting paid. We was doing Purple Label before they even knew what it was about. You know what I'm saying. We really them gods to this date all Yeah, you know what I'm saying. Humbly, you know, humbly. Yeah. So I think that now all the opportunity that we had in front of us is either you learn from it or you didn't. And I learned. I've see I'm staying here today. That's right. Come on, you know what I'm saying. So that speak volumes in itself. You know what I'm saying.

00:55:56
Speaker 1: That's a fact, you know. That's always been. I always been had that relationship with you in that way though heard and people don't know how close we really are are g you know what I'm saying, Like you really came to Cooper to give me and bring me around, and I'm in the crib we bring we know, to bring four dutches the Bleak Crib and Lassie were smoking when we like fourteen years old the crib because you were allowed to smoke in the crib.
00:56:17

00:56:28
Speaker 1: Was a tripping Yeah, you get a pack of four dutcheses we go up there. But a lot of people really don't know how our relationship is. And I always keep that the where it's at. Though. I let them believe what they believe, you know what I'm saying, man, they're always been good for me at least, you know what I mean, you got a brother, yeah, man, when they come down to you, Joe l Ortz geter k Yeah, my g I think this is like my like y'all were my little brothers. That's my g Like, That's why I was a little brother to my brother, right. So I always wanted little brother right, and then I got three of them at the same time. I was like, Oh, I could teach these niggas some g shit, right, And then we all started rapping together.
00:57:07
Speaker 2: It was like, oh, shit is lick.
00:57:09
Speaker 3: Like when I tell people all the time, when I tell people like, man, y'all, y'all just don't know the dynamics of all the projects and how they coincide with each other, Like people wouldn't expect Marson and Cooper to be so close, you know what I mean?
00:57:24
Speaker 1: Even Man said that was like how Massie and Cooper like that? I said, I don't know, it just happened like like you know, I.
00:57:31
Speaker 3: Feel like Marson niggas wanted they feeling of venturing out and Cooper was like.
00:57:37
Speaker 1: That in the Brooklyn Niggas getting the Cooper and don't leave that's right.
00:57:43
Speaker 3: Movie the way, like yo movie over there. Yo, niggas going to running Cooper for real and you don't even know.
00:57:48
Speaker 1: They down there. It's a movie, that's a fact. They come down there and be like, oh, I ain't know. It's like this, like nah, I just like that boy.
00:57:56
Speaker 2: And I ain't gonna lie.
00:57:57
Speaker 1: I think too. You know what else, Catching niggas in Cooper, y'all niggas was like the first projects, mixed with the black and the Spanish, right right, right right. I remember you got Bushwick, Brinkan all that shit in between. But then when you get to your projects, it's mixed to gather shout out through all my Latinos and latinae. I told you that. Now, now you got the crew, shout out the holler at chet. You know, because I've been on that respectfully, you know what I'm saying. Because of my neighborhood. We grew up like that, and you know, it's very it's very diverse, you know what I mean. It's Italians down there too. No shoutout, throw all my Taliano's down there. You already know what it is. You know what I'm saying.
00:58:35
Speaker 3: So it's so crazy too, how I got connected with your side was through school because when I got kicked out of seventy one, word shout out to the seventy one. You know what I mean Junior high school? I had seventy one out there in Brooklyn. Felt that rod score in my locker. It's like gotta go, buddy.
00:58:54
Speaker 1: So my moms I used to tell her all the time, y, I want to go to thirty three. If I don't go to thirty three, put me in three eighteen. And my mom's would be like, hell, no, you ain't going to them schools. You going to a good school.
00:59:05
Speaker 3: So my moms found some school way in the back of Brooklyn, I is forty nine, and put me in there. You know who I met in there?
00:59:13
Speaker 1: All the fucking connections right that park, that part Dominican hart Ricans, all hard necks. They had everything that Paul got, the cars, they tags for the cars, a fake ID, they had the work, they had the weed. I'm like, my good looking you put me in the spot. And that's what led me to your neighborhood. Because if you think it's forty nine, then it's Eastern District. Then you get to that White Castle and when you get on that corner of White Castle. You look in the trenches, You're like, what step down there? Right right? We're in the project in a car.
00:59:48
Speaker 2: Let me go see what that's about down there.
00:59:51
