How was it establishing yourself as an individual artist outside the group? 00:13:09 Speaker 1: Oh, man, it was hard. 00:13:10 Speaker 3: It was hard because, you know, all they know me from is from the Eminem days. You know what I'm saying? Or just being a part of the whole movement. So it was hard to establish it, man. But I just took on, like, I just left the bazaar from D12 where it was at. So when I started establishing myself in the underground, I did a lot of shit that I probably shouldn't have. No, not did, but I treated it like I was a new artist, basically. So I knew I had to do more underground shows. I knew I had to, you know, this ain't about to be the arena. It ain't going to be catering. 00:13:43 Speaker 1: That's right, yo. That's right. 00:13:44 Speaker 3: We're going to get some McDonald's, some Wendy's to eat in the car, then we're going to go in here and do our thing. 00:13:49 Speaker 1: Yeah, nah. I know what it's like to hit the reset button like Nintendo. Right. Because it happened to me too, dog. Right, right. Wired up. And because remember, we tour babies, you know what I'm saying? So that's all we know is catering. You asked me, what was my first tour? What was your first tour? Upper Smoke tour. 00:14:09 Speaker 3: And he gonna give me problems behind the scenes because I said hard knock. 00:14:15 Speaker 1: It's the same. We had the same tour. 00:14:19 Speaker 2: But y'all had more weed than us. My tour was bad with the weed. I had like three pounds of straight trash. I grew up hard knock. I met one stop that tour when we got to L.A. Shout out to One Stop. That's the tour I met One Stop. Shout out my dog, One Stop. Used to come through with the dog with the shaved butt.

That's my bro. 00:14:49 Speaker 3: But he definitely had the half-necked dog with the gas. 00:14:53 Speaker 2: And I remember when Sour first came out, because he was calling it baby shit. 00:14:57 Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. 00:14:57 Speaker 1: Red Man and Method Man.

Because there's not a lot of groups today. 00:17:17 Speaker 1: Right. I say what would make a group as successful is probably... I'm trying to think of the right word. Compromise. 00:17:32 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:17:33 Speaker 1: Compromise. That's a real word. That's a word a lot of people don't want to run from. 00:17:37 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. 00:17:38 Speaker 1: So, yeah. 00:17:39 Speaker 3: Compromise and learn how to pick your battles. 00:17:43 Speaker 1: What battle to pick. You know what I'm saying? That's right. Can't fight every war. 00:17:47 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:17:48 Speaker 1: Some wars you got to light it up a little bit. Yeah. Some wars you the victor, some wars you the spoiler. Right, right. I would say that. No, I agree. I agree. That's some good advice. Definitely. Learn to compromise. It's going to have to. Right.

Oh, man. 00:20:29 Speaker 3: Per diem days. Man, you just gave me a flashback. I got a homie, dog. Listen, let me tell you how Illy is. I don't want me to get off topic, but this is how Illy was on tour. The nigga used to take his weekly money that he made. He was one of my security guards, right? He used to take his weekly money that he made, and he would take his per diems. He wouldn't spend no money. He wouldn't spend none of his per diems, and he would put it together and send it home to his girl, right? The nigga would take all the food in the dressing room, put it in the garbage bag, the sandwiches and all that shit. 00:21:07 Speaker 1: Niggas ain't eating the sodas. He would eat off of that. He a savage. I said, you a full-blown savage, dog. He a rebel. He was acting like he came from Ghana with my nigga. 00:21:19 Speaker 3: He needed to be sending that bag back home. Spending your per diem money is crazy, man. I mean, to save your per diem money is crazy. 00:21:27 Speaker 2: I was buying weed with mine. We was looking for that little 400 a week. 00:21:33 Speaker 1: We was getting a nice little 400. We'd go to the mall. That's how you know we was fucked up. 00:21:39 Speaker 2: We was discriminating against our own niggas because we would be like, yo, we in Minnesota. 00:21:45 Speaker 1: Yo, let's go to the mall and look for a nigga who look like us. Right. If we try that today, you getting shot. 00:21:51 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:21:51 Speaker 1: You walk up on the nigga today and be like, yo, fam, I'm trying to get that bud. 00:21:56 Speaker 3: Nigga. 00:21:57 Speaker 1: You the police, homie, you getting shot. So thank God it was back then. 00:22:01 Speaker 2: That niggas in these cities and these towns was definitely showing love. We'd walk up on them in the footlocker, champs. They were saying, we out here, you know what I mean, on the tour trying to find the eye. They'd be like, yo, take my number. I'll pull up to the hotel. 00:22:13 Speaker 1: And they'd come through. We was wilding because they could have

came through and stuck us. Everything. 00:22:18 Speaker 3: Yep, because remember we had to find weed in every city unless you want to take that chance. 00:22:22 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? Nah. 00:22:25 Speaker 3: They didn't used to fuck with us, but I think when Wiz Khalifa came out, that's when I started hearing about tour buses getting stopped. 00:22:33 Speaker 1: Damn, Wiz fucked it up? 00:22:35 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying? That's when then 2 Chainz, you know what I'm saying? Back in the day, that was like- Nah, I'm not going to. 00:22:41 Speaker 1: Put on the homies. 00:22:42 Speaker 2: Gloria Velaz bus got stopped. 00:22:44 Speaker 1: Oh, shit. Remember that bus? Yeah, it was a lot of tour buses getting stopped. Oh, shit. Like, see, yo, we- You got me going back in days now. I'm reminiscing now. 00:22:55 Speaker 2: Like, we got banned from a tour bus company to where Rockefeller couldn't order tour buses from this company no more. We went on tour. You know, we the young dumb. We got slammers on the bus or whatever. So I'm telling you, one of the homies was supposed to get the slammer, and he left it on the bus. 00:23:15 Speaker 3: Right. 00:23:16 Speaker 2: And the company called Rockefeller and like, yo, listen, we terminating y'all contract. Y'all can never rent buses through us no more. I remember getting that call like, yo, what's wrong with y'all little niggas? 00:23:25 Speaker 1: You could have got charged. 00:23:26 Speaker 2: Somebody could have went to jail. 00:23:28 Speaker 1: Like, word. Tour bus is wild, man. 00:23:31 Speaker 2: Tour bus days. Yo, and you spoke publicly, you know, about health, lifestyle changes. How have those experiences changed your priorities in life today? 00:23:41 Speaker 1: Man, well, I just dropped like 100 pounds. God bless, bro. I think, man, just priorities, man. 00:23:50 Speaker 3: Health is wealth, man. When you get older, man, you got to. You got to really take care of yourself. You know what I'm saying? 00:23:55 Speaker 1: One of my homeboys told me, he said, man, it ain't a lot of healthy fat. 00:23:59 Speaker 3: I mean, what did he say? It ain't a lot of fat old people. I'm like, damn, okay. I got to get my shit together. I feel you, buddy. 00:24:11 Speaker 2: Me and my bro, right, we always say that a lot of people say that health is wealth shit. And they just, I think people use it as a hashtag. Where they really need to take heed and go get the checkups. 00:24:22 Speaker 1: Go to the doctor. You know what I mean? You have to. You have to go get that yearly checkup. You got it. First of all, you think you better start going to the dentist. Yeah. Because a lot of these health problems come from the teeth, dog. 00:24:32 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:24:33 Speaker 1: Go to the dentist, fam. 00:24:35 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:24:35 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? It starts there. 00:24:38 Speaker 2: So I'm glad that we have more artists speaking up about health and taking care of yourself. 00:24:43 Speaker 1: Yeah. 00:24:44 Speaker 2: I always tell Mike, I tell my kid, your first 40, you. 00:24:49 Speaker 1: Can eat whatever. Do whatever you want. 00:24:51 Speaker 2: You want to enjoy that next 40, you better eat everything you didn't like during. 00:24:55 Speaker 1: The first 40. I only eat once a day. Damn. You do intermediate fasting. 12 noon. Yeah, damn you. 00:25:04 Speaker 3: Unless I got to go to the studio and I got to smoke some weed. That's what I'm about to say. You fucking me up today. 00:25:09 Speaker 1: That's my fault? Damn! 00:25:11 Speaker 3: You fucked up my whole night. You fucked up my whole night. 00:25:17 Speaker 1: You fucked me up. My diet is over, y'all. 00:25:25 Speaker 3: Yo, Francie, don't look at this episode because you're going to be like, yeah, bitch ass nigga bleak. 00:25:31 Speaker 1: He on the diet. Man, man. 00:25:35 Speaker 2: Yo, with talks of new D12 music, what does the future of the group look like from your perspective? Do you see it coming back and making that move like y'all did? 00:25:48 Speaker 3: I think that was just a chapter. Sometimes you just got to leave. stuff where it's at, you know what I'm saying? Like, as artists, when you try to recreate something or redo something, it's just like, you know, it don't. 00:26:03 Speaker 1: Be the same. 00:26:05 Speaker 2: And the words of, they say from my crew, you can't recreate history. 00:26:09 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. 00:26:10 Speaker 2: That's some real shit. Word, they always say that. I hear that all the time. Like, stop trying to rewrite or recreate history. You gonna do it, make new history. 00:26:18 Speaker 1: And you know what? 00:26:18 Speaker 3: I think that's my motivation, you know what I'm saying? Because, like, when I'm around my young dogs, they... They'd be like, damn, man, you outworking us, man. 00:26:26 Speaker 1: You half our age. Man, damn, you did this today. 00:26:29 Speaker 3: I'm like, damn, I didn't did so much shit that it's like, you know, you got to be unconscious with this shit. You got to just keep going. There's no time to celebrate. Ain't no time to think about that shit. 00:26:40 Speaker 1: Nope. You did that back then. What are you doing now? That's what he's saying. 00:26:45 Speaker 2: That's right. It ain't about what you did 10 years ago. It's what you did 10 minutes ago. And niggas is stuck. A lot of these kids are stuck. That's why they got one flow, one zone, one this. They don't try to expand. When people get something that work today, they stick to it and drill it in your head. 00:27:00 Speaker 1: So you don't want it no more. Right. You know what I mean? 00:27:02 Speaker 2: I feel like in our day, we always try to discover that new. 00:27:06 Speaker 1: What's next? What's the next? What's the next? You know what I mean? 00:27:09 Speaker 2: So what collaborations or business ventures you focused on right. 00:27:13 Speaker 1: Now, man? 00:27:14 Speaker 2: Man, I just got a fishing show. A fishing

show? You see, I just had my guy Mikey the fish in the building. 00:27:22 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? What? I thought he was going to look at me crazy. We all fucking with the fish. Let's get it. Yeah, man. That's what's up. People don't know I'm a big fisherman. Oh, what? 00:27:32 Speaker 2: Damn. 00:27:32 Speaker 1: I used to take my poles on the road. Yeah. Every off day, I'm trying to find a lake. 00:27:39 Speaker 2: Yo, you just missed my man, Marina Mikey Fish. 00:27:43 Speaker 1: That was just here. Who was here wanted the pictures and all that. Oh, shit. That's why it's named Mikey the Fish. Wow. Yeah, that's what he do every day out there catching big sea bass, big shit. What? He live on the marina. That's Marina Mikey. What? 00:27:58 Speaker 3: I fished in New York one time. They took out the, I think it was this big magazine. They took me out on a charter in New York. 00:28:06 Speaker 1: Oh, what? 00:28:08 Speaker 3: How I learned how to fish in New York is, you gotta follow the birds. So wherever the birds land in the water, that's where the fish bite at. You got patience. You got a lot of patience. He could be a sniper. 00:28:21 Speaker 2: He the type that could sit on the roof for two hours and wait for you to come out the grocery store and pick you off. Because the fish, you have to have patience. That line could be sitting there all day. You know, sometimes you be on the boat, chilling, smoking one, drinking. Then you like, oh, we got some. 00:28:34 Speaker 3: But see, the way I became a fisherman is my grandfather always told me he was going to take me fishing. And I was sitting on the porch with my little bucket and hat, waiting on him. 00:28:44 Speaker 1: And then my mom be like, he's not coming. Come inside, boy. I'm like, yes he is. 00:28:50 Speaker 3: So I started fishing because my grandfather never picked me up. 00:28:54 Speaker 1: Damn, damn. 00:28:56 Speaker 2: That's what's up, man. When I got grown, I was like, damn. Yeah, I'm going to do it. And it's the dope hobby. I did a little crabbing. I know how to do that. That's a little easier for me. You probably need to go on like a charter where you know you're going to catch some fish. 00:29:07 Speaker 1: Yeah, catch some real shit. I did it in the, where was I at? I was in... Where was I at? 00:29:14 Speaker 2: Because they had me fishing without a fishing line. 00:29:15 Speaker 1: It was just the line. You just threw the line in the water and pull it up. You must have been overseas somewhere. Yeah, I was in some wild country. I forgot where I was at. 00:29:22 Speaker 2: Peruvia or something. I think we were, where the fuck we was at? I forgot where I was at. But yeah, I was fishing with no fishing rope. It's just a line. That's it. No fishing rod. None of that. 00:29:32 Speaker 1: Word. It's crazy. You catch something? Yeah, a little. I caught a little Nemo. I gave him back. Caught a little Nemo. I sent him back. You know what I mean? 00:29:44 Speaker 2: So, you know, when you think about the early days, you know, the Detroit days, rest in peace with my guy Proof M, what memories mean the most to you? 00:29:56 Speaker 1: Detroit. 00:29:58 Speaker 3: I think the memories I remember is like a lot of backyard parties, barbecue, you could smell that barbecue in the backyard, and everybody just sitting on their porch in fire hydrants. Like, Detroit is a city where you don't gotta go nowhere to have fun. 00:30:20 Speaker 1: Niggas just be on the porch, kicking and playing, cars. Throwing horseshoes. I don't know. You know about horseshoes? No, we was pitching coins. It's almost similar. 00:30:30 Speaker 3: It's a little bit. 00:30:31 Speaker 1: You know, you go to the fair, they got it, but I'm pretty sure they ain't like, yeah, yeah, yeah. 00:30:37 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I remember about Detroit. It's just players and, you know, money. Everybody got a bag. 00:30:44 Speaker 1: What is major money in Detroit in the name? All the money. 00:30:49 Speaker 3: Flew through Detroit. Yeah, Detroit got a low-key attitude. We got an attitude problem. I love my city, man. I remember one time I was in Coney a couple years ago, and I was in line, and it was these two little YNs behind me. 00:31:05 Speaker 1: And one dude was like, yo, I think that's Bizarre from D12. And dude was like, who? He's like, Bizarre from D12, Eminem group. He said, he looked at me, he said, so? He cool? He cool? Get off that nigga dick. Yo, chill. I was like, yes. Yo, chill. Like, Detroit, yeah, we're still winning. 00:31:25 Speaker 2: Fuck all that fake shit. 00:31:28 Speaker 1: It was funny to me because that's how our attitude is. Like, son of a nigga, fuck them niggas. No, it is. It's like that, man. 00:31:36 Speaker 2: Like, a lot of cities got that attitude, but Detroit definitely a roughneck city. It ain't one of those cities you're going to go out there and think it's just... Canada, across the water, casinos and pimps and players. 00:31:47 Speaker 1: They will hit you in your head. 00:31:49 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:31:50 Speaker 1: Straight up. Now, though, you could buy a lot. You've been out there a lot. You've been out there a lot. Yeah. I used to be in the D a lot, man. 00:31:57 Speaker 2: I ain't going front. Detroit, I wish I knew the strip club, bro. I got booked. It's only two cities that I ever went to a club, and it made me feel like, yo. 00:32:07 Speaker 1: Just get the money back. Like, we good. 00:32:09 Speaker 2: Like, fuck are we even doing here? Like, we went all the shit, but this is too much. And Detroit is one of them. It was a strip club out there, my nigga. 00:32:18 Speaker 1: We going in. 00:32:19 Speaker 2: I had my security guard with me. Shout out my man Tweet. And bro, they had girls stripping outside. 00:32:27 Speaker 1: Damn. The strip club. 00:32:29 Speaker 2: You know the big 45-inch rims, 50-inch, the dunks, the gold plated. I think it's outside. We're not even in the club. And I'm like, wait a minute. If

it's like this in the parking lot, what's inside? I'm looking like, I don't think we need to go in this motherfucker. But we went in, they showed love, man. Like, that's one thing Detroit always showed. 00:32:50 Speaker 1: The rock love. 00:32:51 Speaker 2: Word. 00:32:52 Speaker 3: Yep, they was showing off for y'all. Word up, my G. They turned up, man. I always fuck with Detroit, man. 00:32:57 Speaker 1: Word. 00:32:58 Speaker 2: Your group, y'all accomplish things no group ever have, man. Like, when you look back, what's something that you feel like they can never take that away from us? 00:33:14 Speaker 3: Probably like longevity. longevity and just, like I said, that word compromise, man. You know, a lot of groups break up and, you know what I'm saying, and fall out, but you just gotta have that compromise, man. Like we used to do with the songs, no matter what nobody wrote or did, still we all just split it equally. 00:33:36 Speaker 1: That's right. 00:33:36 Speaker 3: You know, if you do the chorus, you're supposed to get 15% right off the riff. So if I did a verse and I did a chorus, how much, that's 45. And then I produced the beat. Oh, you produced too? 00:33:48 Speaker 1: No, I'm just saying. Oh, I'm about to say. I'm about to say. 00:33:51 Speaker 2: You want to do a song with me? No, I'm about to say. Goddamn, what those pub checks from them D12 days look like? 00:33:58 Speaker 1: Word up. Like, hey, dog, you selling catalogs? You might try to make a deal. Let's make a deal. Wait a minute. Hold on. 00:34:08 Speaker 3: Yo, J. 00:34:08 Speaker 1: Cole came in and changed the game like that. producing his whole album, going double platinum. Like, the nerve of these young niggas. That's crazy. 00:34:16 Speaker 3: Who the fuck told them they could do that and get all this money? That producer check is a different check. What? 00:34:21 Speaker 1: That's that real check by G. 00:34:23 Speaker 2: I love that these young kids came in and changed the game up and took the helms and took what was started before all of us and the groundwork that was laid down for all of us and advanced it. Now these kids, like you said, man, they producing, rapping, writing hooks, sending them out. You see my guy in here, Dior, he cooking up. I told Hov, that ain't a fucking, the male unicorn. If it is one, straight up. What's the biggest lesson you would give some of these young guys out here, as we say, the YNs, about friendship, loyalty, and just business in this industry? 00:35:03 Speaker 1: Oh, man, I got a bunch of them. Y'all got all day. Y'all got all day. One thing I say, first thing is don't take shit personal. 00:35:13 Speaker 3: Sometimes you just ain't getting a call back because you're not hot right now. 00:35:18 Speaker 1: You're not him. 00:35:19 Speaker 3: Or maybe you just, you know, you ain't at that level. So sometimes some of your friends you might feel like is like, damn, you know, he ain't hitting me back. You know what I'm saying? Because

I hear niggas say, Like when they get a little hot, they be like, oh, nah, he wouldn't have called me back. No, you just had to come up to his level. You know what I'm saying? 00:35:40 Speaker 1: He can't hear you. 00:35:41 Speaker 3: This is what I tell my young boys. And this is the only game I can give them. I say, the music business is like one big ass TV. What you going to do to get on it? The station is moving every five seconds. Something happened. Okay, this motherfucker did this. This happened today. Somebody got shot. He put an album out. Bizarre did a freestyle. Tomorrow is something else. What is you going to do? Because we're all watching the screen. All of us connected to this. Now what you going to do to get on that motherfucking screen? Are you going to put that work in? Is you going to rap? Is you going to grind? Is you going to come to New York and sleep on the floor and eat dollar slices and go to record labels and sit outside and say 45? 00:36:20 Speaker 1: Talk about it. That's what's happening. Word up. 00:36:23 Speaker 2: That's what's going down. A lot of these guys really, really putting in that pain to get it. 00:36:28 Speaker 1: Yeah. 00:36:29 Speaker 3: You got to put that pain in, man. You got to put that grind in. 00:36:32 Speaker 1: I would say. 00:36:34 Speaker 3: grind, you know, be professional. Don't take shit personal. Oh, here go another one. And the music, ain't nobody going to give you this game but me. 00:36:47 Speaker 1: That's right. 00:36:48 Speaker 3: In the music business, if you text a rapper, y'all having a general conversation, yo, what's up, dog? How you been? This is a smoking blunt or whatever. But if you get to the point and you were like, yeah, dog, I want to get you on my album. Or can I get you in the studio? And you don't get a response, that means no. 00:37:10 Speaker 1: That's right. And move on. 00:37:11 Speaker 3: Don't take it personal. Don't fuck the relationship up and getting your feelings and be like, oh, he didn't respond to me about this. Because you don't know what he's going through. He might be working on his album. I mean, it might not be the timing is right. Or it just might be y'all's styles just. 00:37:27 Speaker 1: Don't fucking mix. Well, he just don't want to tell you the record is whack and I don't want to get on it, dawg. 00:37:32 Speaker 3: Come with something new. Or maybe y'all can just be fishing buddies. You know what I'm saying? 00:37:39 Speaker 1: Throw the line now, man. Snag something else, man. Yo, man, you look better. You a better fisherman than a rapper. Let's get out of here on this water. 00:37:46 Speaker 3: I'm going to start telling these guys that, yo. 00:37:51 Speaker 1: You're like a better golfer than a rapper. 00:37:53 Speaker 3: Let's get out on the green. Let's chase a different green, dawg. Yeah. 00:37:58 Speaker 1: This is dope, man. You sound like you already knew that, though. I think you kind of follow that philosophy, probably. Of course, man. Definitely. 00:38:04 Speaker 2: I always tell these kids, like, what's not for you will not be granted to you. As simple as that. Like, you could wish, you could dream, you could work. If it's meant for you, it will come to you. The harder you chase something, the further it runs from you. 00:38:20 Speaker 1: That's some real shit. You know what I'm saying? 00:38:22 Speaker 2: You just got to be patient and know what's for you will come to you. Law of attraction is real. If it's meant for you, it will be in your possession. 00:38:31 Speaker 1: That's a fact. 00:38:32 Speaker 2: When it's all said and done, man, and the game is over, kicking your feet up on your boat. 00:38:38 Speaker 1: 10 lines in the water. It's coming, baby. You know what I'm saying? It's coming. 00:38:41 Speaker 2: 10 lines in the water, trying to catch the go for the blue sea bass that I just seen somebody caught. 00:38:47 Speaker 1: They said it was worth $ 10 million, and they ate it. It was like, what? Oh, shit. When you on that vibe, chasing that. 00:38:55 Speaker 1: That's crazy how you read that. 00:38:57 Speaker 2: What you want them to remember and say about Bizarre and. 00:39:01 Speaker 1: D12 I want them to say like. 00:39:05 Speaker 3: Bizarre was different a lot of people a lot of fans come up to me and say that I helped them through you know a struggle or or you know some shit they was going through so if I could heal people through my music or laughter whatever you know what I'm saying that's what I would you know take What's up? 00:39:26 Speaker 1: That's dope, man. I appreciate you. 00:39:28 Speaker 3: No, nigga, I want to be known as the hardest motherfucker in the world. on this motherfucking planet from Detroit, bitch. 00:39:32 Speaker 1: That's right.
