Drink Champs [Hour 1] - N.O.R.E.'s top 3 podcasts & DMX's legendary episode

25:06And this mayo is different. Most mayonnaise uses whole eggs. Kewpie only uses egg yolks which gives it this rich umami flavor. It's smoother, deeper, almost buttery. Once people try it, they start putting it on everything. Egg sandwiches, fries, burgers. Chefs use it. Restaurants use it. People who really care about flavor use it. Put it on just about anything. Then you'll understand. Kewpie, the original Japanese mayonnaise.

25:32A lot of men, especially these, this era we in, we in the real time of life, Real. A lot of men are truly upset with their shortcomings in life. Some men might have chased too many women and was at a club every night trying to fuck this, this, that and didn't handle their business or they was doing a bunch of other bullshit and they turned around and they said yo I'm 45, I'm fucked up. I'm 50, I'm fucked up. Those are the guys you see in the comments that diss you every chance they can. They're mad at their own lives, they're miserable. So you're looking at the comments again. Looking at them comments again.

26:13No, no, no. He be looking at them comments. I told him about that. You know that? Yo. Don't let it drive you crazy. Let me explain something to you. I'm human. Anybody who tell you they don't look, they're kind of lying. Well, everybody. No, we look, but we don't look obsessed with it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You got to get it out. Listen, listen, my brother. You my brother. We in the Dominican Republic. We on vacation. The littlest guys and the biggest guys. I turn across behind them. I'm looking at the comments. We're on vacation. I am with the shit. Yeah, he's looking through it all. I want to talk with the littlest guys.

26:47If you think I'm not watching you, because you got two followers. Oh, my God. He's great. You're the bottom feeder. What are you doing, Joe? I'm watching you. Anybody gets to. Everybody gets a sublimity or whatever. Can't say their name. One time I said somebody's name. They jumped out. Like I said, oh my God, you like breathe life into these guys. You can't mention your name. But if I throw you, they know. The littlest to the biggest, they know. You're not like me. You're not like me. I don't care what you say. You can say it's cap or whatever. But I've been putting in this work in these streets since I'm 14.

27:23I don't care what you guys think you can say in these comments and all that. You are not like me. And when I walk through, I walk like a shake. I walk like a sheik from Dubai or something. I walk through, oh shit. Yo, that's him. When you open the door, something foreign every time. When he come out, he clean. Smelling like a billion. Am I lying, young man? You the only nigga who stuck up for me when they said I wasn't fly. 25, I told you, fend off the camera. I said, yo, if they lying in real life while we here, and we're allegedly known to punish people. And you lying about me now. Why imagine when I'm dead?

28:08I'm really all fucked up. You want to tell me you throwing this shit on? Don't tell me about the old niggas that had it. They be the old niggas that ratted. You understand? Like, you got to stop. And so we not on the same level. And there's one thing that people try to do. They do it to you, too. You don't see it, obviously. You don't do it. They do it to everybody. Look, we come up from an era, if you talk on the street level, you couldn't be pussy and get money. You had to put it down. That's just what it is. If you was pussy, you got money, they taking your shit. Your own friends. It's over.

28:46If I be packing up, you got to go. This is how it is. Right? In this rap game, I had so much, and I was trying to be a nice guy. I had so much beef in this game with every biggest rap crew you ever seen. Because I was like, you can't be serious. I just fought guys with eight heads in the streets. I'm not going to fall to a rap. These guys kill babies. Like, you got to be kidding me. You think that your rap's a family show? All right. But what I'm saying is... Family show. What I'm saying is, we came with a time where we had to really fight. You had to write your bars. You had to write your bars.

29:23You had to work. You had to promote. You had to this, that. You know, the illest album out right now, if y 'all want to keep lying to yourselves or whatever, them clips drop the fucking album. You go get it if you love real hip-hop. I don't even care if you like the clips. Go get that. And the man says, we create content. Y 'all content creators. So what you got to understand is when Dream Tramps talks about something and these guys with two followers, that's their whole show. When Joe and Jada, we the rookies of the year, We come in, the leaders of the new school, they turn around, they see what we say, and that's their whole show.

30:03Yo, what Joe and Jay is saying. Oh, Fat Joe talking about Michael Jackson with the holler, man. And come on, yo, it's the triple OG. I killed 46 dudes in C-74. Michael Jackson rapping on the Taliban? What's going on? Like, that's their whole, they don't create content. They're content creators. They're moving off what we do. We shifting the culture. And the culture has to be shifted the right way. You have to pay your dues because we had a couple of corny guys maneuvering in this podcast space. There's a lot of corny guys maneuvering in this podcast space. This guy's crazy. No, listen. Yeah. The other day you said something.

30:46See, me and you, there's nothing that you could do to get me to not salute the God. I got to salute him. You know what I'm saying? He's my brother and we got the bond that can't be broken. But. Let's come back. Let's come back. Usa, what I'm saying is. No, no, I'm coming back. I'm coming back. What I'm saying is.

31:13What I'm saying is, yo, listen, man, you're either going to love me for the shit or you're going to hate me. There's two ways you could take this. You could laugh at me and say I'm capped, whatever. In any case, we number one with a bullet. Don't get that fucked up. So what I'm saying is the other day you made a comment, you said the only podcast that matters is Drink Champs, Comet, Joe Button and Million Dollars Worth of Gain. That hurt you? No, it never hurts me because I do a lot of shit to hurt him that he don't ever get hurt. So I can't get hurt. We can't even fucking hurt each other. You understand what I'm saying?

31:48No, we can't. But what I'm saying is I've seen a lot of other podcasts. You know, Steve Jack is my brother. A bunch of them put in work. A lot of guys are doing their thing. I feel like Steve Jackson is a hater. No. This is the second time. This is the second time hating on me. No, because he been doing it. You see, you got to understand. I thought we was all family. We are. I thought so too. We are. No. And if he had a problem, he should have handled that. You know what I mean? But I seen him a couple of times, and he didn't say nothing to me, and I didn't say nothing to him. But it wasn't no beat.

32:25I believe he was talking to the statement like, they putting in work in the podcast. It's a lot of guys, Carmelo. There's a lot of different guys putting in a lot of work. When you just say, yo, we the three that matter. Everybody else who don't put it, us, we don't care. We just new in the game, and we just, I don't give a fuck anyway. So I'm different. But is there any way to say, All right. Why did you come up with that decision? I don't know. It's actually the truth. But it's the truth when they say like this. When it comes to hip hop podcasts, we led the way. One million percent. All right.

33:02All right. Who invented the podcast space, period? It's Peter Rosenberg and Cypress Sounds. Anybody, we all owe them a check. You got to give Icy some credit. No, I'm getting there. Peter Rosenberg and Cypress Sounds. That's the first podcast ever, right? Then you got, when you got to come to artist podcast, first artist podcast was Ice Team, right? Then after that, this was a nerd space. Combat Jack. Combat Jack, yes. Yes, Combat Jack. Combat Jack, my man in jail. Rest in peace, no nerd. Yeah, no, no, no. No, but what I'm saying, overall, that's what it was for. This was like a nerd space. What I'm trying to say, of course, other podcasts matter.

33:38Of course, I'm on this show. I'm doing other shows. Of course that. But what I'm saying is, who led the way in this podcast? You're saying it's the golden era. Yes. I feel the hip hop. It's LL Cool J. It's Salt and Pepper. Heavy D. Rock Kim. Big Daddy K. You just saying, yo, we let the... Listen, and by the way, if it wasn't for those three podcasts, probably you wouldn't be here right now. Probably a lot of people wouldn't be here right now. I super agree. I just wish you would have told me earlier there's so many bags in space. I mean, listen. I did tell you. Listen, I did tell you. You know what you did?

34:11Like you said. No, no, no, no. Time, bro. No, no, no. I did tell you. And you know what you did? You went and started CrackVision on your own. Like you said, you can't be under nobody. So you're living out your words. You did that. You know what? Hold on, I got to finish. Because you can't just say that and we just go off. I didn't say that. 19 Keys. No, no, no, I'm saying. So 19 Keys hit me about the same thing. Who's 19 Keys? 19 Keys. He has a podcast as well. So if I say that, if I say something like I'm the best and you offended, what does that mean about you? I ain't saying this is my shit I monkey fucking this game I got the viewers every single month you are the best I don't have to I don't have to clout chase hold on no you guys are the best I don't have to clout chase you guys are the kids I don't have to diss other podcasts what I was trying to say was that's the podcast that matters in this milestone at this moment at this moment leading up now of course there's going to be other people of course there's going to be other people you know everybody's going to have their time they're going to have their time You know what it is in Miami?

35:13Miami, you get a restaurant six months, and then you close down. Gecko, all these beautiful restaurants, they hot. You can't get a fucking reservation at all. But then six months, where they at? Where they at? That's right. You know what I'm saying? Let me just say something. Not only have I survived this space, but I've been innovative. I've been innovative. I've been innovative. When people were chasing other people, I went and I messed with a kid from Virginia. No one was messing with kids from Virginia. This guy is still to this day. You know, when they was calling him D's nephew, I was the only one outside of the Rough Riders who worked with him.

35:56Scott Storch, yes, you made him famous. But who gave him that first beat when he came out here? Reggaeton. Y 'all both laughed at me. Y 'all both apologize, so I take y 'all forgiveness. But look at Bad Bunny right now. This nigga got a fucking concert for six months. We're going. We booked our tickets. Holy moly guacamole. No, we booked our tickets. You telling me that exists without Oyemikanda, without me? What I did? Like, this is what I'm trying to say. You know what I'm saying? Buster Rhymes told me the other day. He said, yo, man, I don't like you still being humble. I'm a humble guy. But I know my accolades, though.

36:33I know what I did. I know my numbers. I know what I put up on the board. Very aggressive, Buster Rhymes. I know what I put up on the board. So you know what? If I'm finally bigging up myself. Hold on, hold on. So if I finally bigging up myself. Now is when y 'all, when I was humble all these years, nobody got nothing to say. Oh, he's humble, Norm. He's chill. Now I say, you know what? We put our foot in this game. And I'm not taking away from others. So I'm sorry if I said it that way and people got offended. That's not what I meant. I meant this is, remember the era? DMX, you know, Jay and Ja.

37:09This is what us three is. It doesn't mean that Nas doesn't exist. It doesn't mean that, you know what I'm saying, Rough Riders don't exist. Nothing wrong. That's how you feel. Yeah, I just felt good. I just got to address it. Yeah, I felt good about that. I got to address it. You know what I'm saying? So you could explain how you feel about this shit. Yeah, yeah. Now, you're my brother and I go on vacation with you and you guys try to force me to drink. including my wife. No, let me say something. Let me give you a story. Your brother-in-law was walking in my house sideways. Where's that? You ever seen this guy?

37:44This guy for certain was going to vomit. I'm watching him behind the scenes. Yo, I'm watching brother-in-law. You hear his brother? This guy's walking like this. Yo, I'm walking behind him with a towel ready to catch him because for sure he got out sideways. He's walking like this. And then his mother, everybody's watching him. I said, I've been there. So I know he's going to vomit one million percent. I'm watching him the whole shit. He didn't. Right? But EFN said he brought the drink to the drink champs. He said, you more of a smoker at that time. When we were doing military crazy. And we had the casino-ish spot.

38:26I remember my party bottle. He said, they're the drinkers. You used to be the smoke. You was Pinot and the smoke. Yeah, yeah. And now you have graduated to the drink chest. Yeah, probably. Huh? Because God, you guys, it's like a mission. I swear to God, be like, yo, give him a shot. Give him a shot. That next thing you know. And I'm a happy drunk. You know, what happened to me? I don't know if I ever said this, but the one time I got drunk, I was in Morris High School. I was the bully of the whole high school. They could say whatever they want. I robbed the whole fucking shit by myself. Some of you guys is pussy.

39:01You can't. You got smacked in the back of your neck and you kept walking. But I was the guy. And my man came and said before home, when we said, yo, let's drink. I said, what's this? It was a 40-year-old. We drank a 40-year-old. I never got drunk. Yeah, something like that. So we went to the back of Morris High School where the girls play handball because that's where all the pretty girls was. and I was disrespectful. I was like, yo, fuck that. This doing all that. When I tell you this guy, his name was Eddie. I even give him a prop. Big head Eddie. He's the biggest punk in the world. Me and him got into it and he beat the shit out.

39:45And no one could beat the shit out of me at this time is what I'm trying to tell you. My hands was crazy, right? So I remember I sat down in the gate and I just looked at everybody laughing at me and I said, something's wrong, right? Why do I feel like this? I feel like I can't even move my arms. I can't even fight. And I realized we got drunk, we fucked up. And from that point, if I was going to have beef with everybody in the world, niggas shooting at me, all type of shit, I got to be dead sober. The next day I came back, boy, Eddie caught the hockey stick to the hockey club to his fucking big dome.

40:27You know what we call Eddie? A fucking sniper's dream. You know how the snipers got their heads on the shit with the cross on the shit? This shit is a sniper's dream.

Yo, so hope you can't go through TSA. It's crazy. I'm a little so gay.

46:32You can't go through TSA. All right.

46:38Yo, I was scrolling through the Sprite living track list the other day and immediately started arguing with myself. Arguing with yourself? I'm serious. It was wild because records like California Love, Still Not a Player, back then, those aren't just songs. Nah. Those are moments, memories, snapshots of where hip-hop was and where it's going. Exactly. And that's what Sprite gets. They spent over 40 years celebrating artists who really defined the culture. And now they flipping it, letting the fans be part of the conversation. Which is where it gets interesting because the real debate is why. Like, why did that song matter?

47:18Why did that line hit? Why did it change hip-hop forever? I can't promise you we got the answers. But you're definitely going to have a good time figuring it out.

You know when people try a new food and suddenly it's like, okay, hold on, I got a new favorite food! That's the reaction a lot of people are having when they first try Kewpie mayo. Yeah, it's the one with the red cap and the little baby on the bottle. You've probably seen it at the grocery store.

49:10And this mayo is different. Most mayonnaise uses whole eggs. Kewpie only uses egg yolks, which gives it this rich umami flavor. It's smoother, deeper, almost buttery. Once people try it, they start putting it on everything. Egg sandwiches, fries, burgers. Chefs use it. Restaurants use it. People who really care about flavor use it. Put it on just about anything. Then you'll understand. Kewpie, the original Japanese mayonnaise.

49:37Here's a story. Me and Crack, we both look at our schedules. We actually at a restaurant. I look at his, he look at mine. So we noticed that we're not in no town. We're in Europe, but he's in this side, I'm on this side. So just so happens, we're both greedy people. We take an extra show. He takes an extra show. I take an extra show. We wind up at the same place. So a guy tells me, yo, Joe is here. And I was like, there's no way Joe is here. Like, I took the, I was the greedy one. You was just with me on Thursday. Yeah, I was like, yo, I was the greedy one. You know, we go on the way Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and coming back, I meet you on Monday.

50:14So he's like, yo, I was just with him on Thursday. I was just with him. There's no way. So I called him. And I've never heard him like this in my life. He was like, and I go, what? He goes, I said, you got a show, right? I said, CNN is an early show. Six o 'clock, we out. He's like, yeah. And when you, in Europe, if you perform at 12, if you perform at 12 in Europe. Yo, his spot knows you're too good. He's saying it with the right tone. You're lit. If you perform at 12 in Europe, you're lit. Usually it's six o 'clock. That's real hip hop. And then they go back to work. So when I call him, he's like, and I'm like, He's like, yo, I said, you got a show?

50:54He said, yeah, but I can't invite you. And I'm like, what? Why you? I was like, this is weird. What the fuck you mean you can't invite me? And he's like, they said they're going to run down on me. They're going to, they're going to. I forget the slang, what it was at the time. So I said, what? Oh, I'm definitely going here. You want to say yes, I can't say. You know what we call those? Real suckers. And Vanir got smoke, and he got beef somewhere, and he don't tell you and you show up as a friend and then the drama come and you stop in the middle. He lines you up. I had to tell my brother I got real problems.

51:29Okay, so when I was scared to fly, I had a manager at the time and he took bags from... I had beef everywhere. Australia, Europe, Germany, everywhere because he was saying, yo, Fat Joe's coming, taking 50 ,000, booking me. I didn't know, right? So when I get out there, I go to do, because the show's in the same hotel downstairs as the club. So they tell me to do press. So I'm doing the press like this, with Jury Young. I'm really comfortable, right? So these girls doing an interview. These dudes come in. They really a fucking Illuminati. They had the swastas. They had the real Hitler shit. Tattoos.

52:13They brought the guys with the Hitler shit on the baldest, like tattoos on it like this. So a dude comes with a paper. I get it. No disrespect. I get it. Somebody beat him for$50 ,000. Wasn't me. He comes with the contract. Fat Joe, I send you$50 ,000, this, this, that. I said, bro, it must be a mistake. I never even been out here. You know, this is my first time here. No,$50 ,000, I want it now. I ain't going to lie to you. I had bad jury on. I was by myself. I get up. I tell him, I ain't giving you shit. I said, what it says there? So he tells me the guy's name. I said, no, my manager's Flex, Felix Cabrera.

52:53His name ain't on there. My name ain't on there. Somebody robbed you. I'm sorry. Yo, this, he was mad. I get it. He was waiting for the day for Fat Joe to come. He had three of them guys that will put you in a fucking pretzel, and I got the fuck up. You know what I'm saying? I was like, yo, what's up, man? Whatever y 'all want to do. I'm not going to lie. This is the humor to the story. It was a gay guy who ran the club. Man jumped in the middle of them and saved them. Man jumped. Nah, you can't. Not a year. I'm telling you this.

53:27That dude snapped his fingers too turned out. It's a story. No, but it's a true story. I'm picking him up. The man saved my life. When he distracted them, I spun out. I went upstairs. I got a fucking fork. I'm shopping in a fork. I got the fork. All I can guarantee. Take it to American meat. I am not invincible. All I can guarantee, America, you will see me go out. They will pound me to smithereens. Drag me. I'm not guaranteeing you there won't be a video like that one day. But you will see Joe going out. He'll be like, yo, crap went out. Dirty of them. He was, he's bought that. He said he was bought that life.

54:13He's bought that life. So let me ask you. Hold on. So Nori calls me, what a blessing in disguise. So I go, yo, Nori, I can't line you up. They about to pound me out tonight, right? Because they was coming. So my promoter, he's German. He says, oh my God, what are they guys? What they call them? Not the Aryan nation. What are they in Germany? Skinheads. Skinheads. He's like, he's the skinheads, Joe. They are coming. These guys don't play. They burn people in cars and shit like that. He was, yo. So I'm up there with a fork. I got my height down, bitch. What the fuck? No, I swear to God. What you gonna do with a fork?

54:50Go all out, bitch. I'm gonna go all out. Trust me. So I'm going like this. And Nori calls me out something not to come. Nori come with 100 guys. These guys got tattoos all over me. Well, we got tattoos, too. Tattoos in their tongues. I was so happy. You never seen the time where I sat back and said, take all the food. Yes, he did. He offered food. I swear to God. He had sushi. No, you can drink all the liquor. The food, don't eat it. Oh, guys, so nice to see you guys. Have a sushi, please. No, but let me ask you. Enjoy them niggas. He came with some s - Yo, I'm not going to die. All right, hold on, hold on.

55:31These guys, these guys are dangerous guys. For years, for years, I've been going to Germany. and I had the same people keep coming to my shows. So I started to realize everybody's not a groupie. Some of these dudes are allies, you know what I'm saying? And I learned that from Rough Riders. Like Rough Riders got a chapter everywhere. Like if I ever was somewhere trapped, I would call D and D would send the biker gang. They look weird and all that, but they coming. You know what I mean? So I learned that. So I built a relationship with Duzendorf and all that. I used to go there. I couldn't get money in America.

56:05So I used to go there. And what I started to realize is, yo, build these little armies. Like, that's what we're doing with Run Champs right now. Everywhere we want to have a Run Champ segment. So I never had a chance to use them. Hold on. We got to talk about Run Champs. Yeah, we're going to go to that. So Jack calls me and goes, I mean, I call him. Excuse me. And he's telling me not to come. He's being honorable. Like, chill, bro. Like, I'm like, yo, I'm doing the exact opposite. So I'm looking around. I got 25 people here already. I'm like, can you call more people? They're like, I got 10 on deck right now.

56:37So we literally show up like 35. But by the way, we're 10 deep. We're 10 deep already. This is a Capone and Noriega show. You're the heels of the campaign. You better stop.

56:50Don't do that shit. I ain't going to lie. I felt so good. Because we walked through. And I asked one of the dudes, you know who he's talking about? He's like, I knew who he was talking about. And I guess the people was in the crowd. They was in the crowd. And we had a hundred. And he went like this. The dude, he was like this. He was like, he can't do nothing. He couldn't do nothing. He knew them dudes. And that was crazy shit. That was a good one. I helped out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank God for the entourage. We stood on stage. You know, we sat up there. We had 100 dudes on that stage. And it was a Capone and Noriega show.

57:25So we before him, too. They were looking like this, like, yo, where did he get this proof from? Saved by the belt. Now, because now, you know, I got a place in my house called Bon Chin Chin. Wait, you know that. I got a place in my house. You sat there. It's gossip. Bon Chin Chin is gossip. This is gossip. Okay. So I got a whole avenue in my shit where we talk shit about everybody, right? Yo, what happened with this one? Got smacked. Yo, thought he was tough. We talking out shit. Bon Chin Chin Chin. Wait, we used to doing it in front of the projects on the bench. Now we in fucking, you know, doing it.

58:03So I go like this. This is a Bon Chin Chin wait moment. The other day, so he got run champs. He got drink champs. He got smoke champs. Smoke champs, yeah. Run champs got into the show before everybody.

58:20Major Bon Chin Chin. Yo! Hold up! Hold up! No lie. No lie.

58:37I'm sitting there. No. What happened? That's like deep line rough out of this, this, that. He's making an empire. Run Champs right now is the new thing. And they running everywhere. He got billionaires running with them. He's serious about it running up mountains. Them guys are nice guys. It's safe to say you're nice guys. I'm looking right at you. Kind pedestrians. You got to use rewind. But these guys, they let them into the rock the bells before. The chingling? You're like, really? Yeah.

59:20Because they the new kids. They the new kids on the block. They just signing scores. They let them write in. We can't do that. One chance back there, he not even listening. Listen. By the way, this is hilarious. Listen, you cannot. It was small chance for real. I said, I said, I'm minding my business. I'm listening to the conversation. Let me see. Ching Bain was outside. I said, Ching Bain was outside. He didn't get it. Ching Bain? Yeah. Yeah, young Rally, too. I said, oh, my God. I said, it got to be. Listen. Oh, man. I ain't right. You got to let Joe. We know the run champs is the latest.

1:00:05What?

1:00:14Nothing happened until run champs get their credentials. Crazy. No, I had to drink to that. You know what I'm telling me? That's it. And the guy telling me. The guy who was telling me, who was trying to regulate, was walking sideways at the top. They're all my brothers. He's walking sideways. He's the guy trying to figure this out. I said, yo, Papi, you out of your league right now. You trying to do the right thing, but you got to relax. For real. So let's get this established. Run champs cannot get in the contest, in the concert, before - Referring smoke champs in anything else. Drink champs get more seasoned.

1:00:59Drink champs, smoke champs. Don't go in front of smoke champs. Because this is going to be a problem. Right? I mean, let's be shit long. I literally tell you what's this type of thing. No, I was in a meeting. No, I was in a pre-meeting. Fat Joe was in the preseason saying, yo, we got to regulate this. Randy Acker. He played Randy Acker. That's the answer to Randy under the bus. Randy. Randy. Randy. You old school. You ain't want your nose to the bone. Yo, Randy. Randy, you old school. You've been my brother for many years. There's something. Stay out of that area, Randy. There's something called nose to the bone.

1:01:43Nose to the brain. You don't want that. Yeah. Nah. OK, I got to keep it a buck. You don't want that type of situation. I love run chats. I love smoke chats. I love drink chats. But let's not do this again. Please. Yo, nah. You know what it is? I'm going to be honest with you. I've done two shows a year, all right? Just two shows. And I forgot how to snap back into artist mode. You know what I'm saying? Like you see Lou You just came from North Carolina, Fendi Party. I imagine you could just snap right back into that shit. You know what I mean? Like, it's a process. You know what I mean? So I went back into artist mode, and I just wasn't paying attention to what was going on.

1:02:23By the way, I was getting the calls. Yeah.

1:02:30Jada Kiss is my business partner, but he been getting buried just for two months. He been on Fat Joe, Joe and Jada. I could imagine what he's hearing out there, right? because Fat Joe is hard to be my friend. Because I say the wildest shit you ever seen in your life. So I know Nori been catching beef for me beyond life. And he just holds it. I want to say that he's been going through it for two months. I can't wait for the day. He might come one day and be like, I resign. That's it. You talked about Mother Teresa. It's over. I almost resigned today. There's so much I could do with this guy here.

1:03:11But, you know, it works. But I had to get in this negotiation to be like, listen, I know they hot. Just y 'all got to chill because we don't want that type of action. Let's all get along, get money. Let's have fun. They're keeping you healthy. Right? Because I worry about you because you drink a lot. Right? And I don't know how safe that is. I'm not a doctor. I don't give a fuck. I drink too many Diabetes. A lot. You know what I'm saying? Very, very much. I got a problem. 30, 40 a day. Let me tell you something. If I went to the doctor, God forbid, and they tell me, yo, you have a problem due to Diet Pepsi, I got to take the shit on the chin.

1:03:55I got to just be like, I knew I was just doing too much with them Diet Pepsis, right? So are you going to hit one when you leave the doctor? I'm drinking it now immediately. They're not stopping me. I was in jail with a thousand Diet Pepsis. Imagine you in jail. You can't have nothing else, but Diet Pepsi's illegal. Holy shit. That's like you a cigarette. They had Diet Pepsi every sale. Oh yeah. Super Bowl equal. Niggas was throwing them shits down from all type of angles. The Cubans had them. Everything. Throw a Cuban in there. Yo, I ain't dying. Yo, listen. The Cubans found out the last month that I was in jail because I did my time in Miami.

1:04:37They came and they said, yo, I said I'm Cubano that was the biggest mistake I ever made because the Cubans run that shit down there and they came like a thousand deep it was like

1:04:56what the fuck was that about they came and said yo we need a favor we need a favor so I'm just a regular doing my time nigga you know what I'm saying So they come and they go, yo, we got a guy. Let me tell you something. I was only there four months. This guy was in the box for maybe three of the four months. The first day I went in there, I seen this little Cuban dude punch a dude. He's Cuban's got one. In the jail, this guy was one. He punched a guy in the middle of the basketball court. He goes to the box a month and a half. He comes back, plays two, three spade games, punch another guy in the face.

1:05:33This guy is the truth. He back in the box. No, no, he get busy. Right? Little guy. So they come and they go, yo, we need you to get Ramon out the box. I said, how gonna get Ramon out the box? They said, no, you the leader of this. You know, you could go and talk to them. You're the leader. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They like, you know, it happened two or three times a day. I was only in there for four months. This black dude got into some beef with a Spanish dude and they had me sit down like I'm the leader of the Spanish and the leader of the black guys come because it's real racial in jail. And I said, I'm not the leader, bro.

1:06:10I'm going home. I don't give a fuck about none of this shit. Now I crack with this. No, I'm not the leader of this shit, right? So they go and I go up there and I talk to my man. Shout out to Crespo. He was like the assistant warden of the whole jail. And I go see Crespo. I said, Crespo, man, I need a favor. He said, you need a favor, Joe? I said, yeah. I said, you know, my friend, he said, first of all, ain't none of these guys are your friends, Joe. Like, you don't owe nobody nothing, nobody's your man. I said, nah, I said, you know, he's a friend. When I first came in, he let me a walk. I just bullshitted.

1:06:50He let me to walk, man. He looked out for me and he's been in the box and I really need him to come out the box. He said, Ramon, like they all knew the kid was the problem in the whole jail, black, Spanish, whatever. This guy was a problem. You 730. He was like, what moment? This the guy you vouching for, crack this? I said, I need him out. Man, they brought him out and put him in. And the Cubans was now like, ah, he could do anything. That's the point. Fuck, if I had a year in jail, I'd have had a problem, because they would have wanted a favor every day. They was like, oh my god, this guy could do it.

1:07:26I told you you had the problem. I was like, yo, bro, one shot deal. Nothing I could do. But you know the Cubans, man. Shout out to Ramon. Ramon. Very bad guy. But he's the true. I respect real guys. You know what I'm saying? I respect guys who call an answer, you know what I'm saying? Let's see what it is.
