So my check was 250 grand every three months, right? For 4 % ownership. Just for that. Right, for that. You know, I don't cap on nothing. No, you got bread. No, no, no, but I don't talk about it.

36:44I land in Atlanta, I feel like I'm at home. Birds chirping. I love it. I love the people. I love the atmosphere. I love the food. I love everything about Atlanta. And I always wondered, did I make the right move when I moved to Miami rather than Atlanta? If I would have went to Atlanta, I would have signed all of them. Right. The future, the this one. Right, right, right. Everybody. I would have cleaned house in that bitch. They would have been calling me, you know, the king or something. Because I was signing. I signed DJ Khaled. I signed Big Pun. I signed Remy Ma. Could have signed Eminem. Could have signed Rick Ross.

37:28Could have signed Pitbull. The list is going. Smokey Robbins. Right? But in Atlanta, we got to get Smokey to wear some rewind. If Smokey could do it, let me tell you something.

37:44You know, any good thing, they laugh at you. Right. While you're doing it. And then when you get that bag, they come to tell you how much of a genius you are. They say, yo, man, you always know, Joe. You always know. When they hear this shit, the type of numbers this shit doing, they're going to be like, and I've been keeping everything. Right. No. But we are number one in CVS. We're the number one product of CVS. I just mentioned it to you. No, no, but the number one. Okay. You could buy toothbrushes. You could buy medicine. You could buy this, this, this. That shit's smoking them. Number one.

38:23The other brand you mentioned got 70s porn stars on there. You said the other brand you mentioned. Yeah. The other brand you mentioned, their box has got 70s porn stars. You know what I'm saying? The motherfucker, the motherfucker outdated, flabby, you say. Yeah, you say. This that new shit on Double the Pornhub. Yo. I'm telling you. No, I just, I told you about it. I'm working. I don't give a fuck. Now, you want to talk about my era. I came in the game, Jay-Z, Nas, Justice. No, no, no, no. Lojo was early, man. Yeah, but it was the same era. Way before Jay-Z. No, way before Jay-Z. Jay-Z, this is 96.

39:03Jehovah. I'm 93. Okay, what's that? What I'm trying to tell you is I came in there when I was already in the game making my 500. Yeah. Making my$500. These guys came into the game young. I watched them build billion-dollar empires. I watched Puff Daddy. Puff Daddy had the most visible see-through chain you ever seen in your life. I met Puff Daddy when he was promoting parties. Right. Before Biggie Smalls, before he had anything. So he used to run up to me when I was in my beamers and beds. Yo, here's my flyer. When he promoting clubs, you mean back there? Yeah, yeah. Here's my flyer, buddy, for my party and this.

39:44And I watched these guys build billion-dollar empires. And I finally had to sit back and go, yo, it's time to invest. It's time to bring out products. It's time to sorrisarum, rum you could love. It's time to do real business, you know? And so that's where I'm at. I'm behind the eight ball when you talk about the people I watch come in after me and fucking get to the back, to the bag, bag, bag. But nobody taught us. See, if you didn't do that, nobody would have told you shit. Nobody taught us. Those people just happened to know. My man told me to make clothes after Carl Kanai. I looked at him like he was crazy.

40:22I'm making clothes. I'm a rapper. I make music, you know? But he had the idea, but I never looked at it like that. That was a lot to do with it, too, where you felt like, you know, my brother, rest in peace, Raul, it's almost two years since he passed, but he had a lot. Raul told me because Raul was the cameraman Raul told me something that I thought was the dumbest shit you ever heard in the like he said bro every time you perform I see you drinking water why don't we sell water this is before anybody sold the water fuck hip hop I'm not talking about water water you used to get for free from the pump from the fucking water machine this then it was like yo we should sell water I'm like man ain't nobody that sound crazy Fucking water, nigga.

41:08Like, water? Water's free. Nah. I'm telling you, if you saw water. He had a couple of ideas prematurely ahead of time that we didn't take serious. Had we took him serious? I mean, when I go to his, to the grave all the time, I always tell him, I say, yo, Raul, man, you really had some ideas. Like, he had some ideas that could have put us in the game a long time ago, but we ain't really listen to him. You know what I'm saying? we wasn't thinking on that level. We was trying to be rappers. Right. Because you had an idea for a long time before you did that? My dad, he was in coffee for my whole life.

41:47Oh, okay. You know, foods early back in the day. He was always telling me, yo, you got to do your own. We got to do it. I was brushing them off. We thought, no, I tell him shit, he don't listen to me. You know, my man came to get me. My man came to get me. John Singleton came to get me to be seen. kiss. I was supposed to be in Shaq. John Singleton was in the Bronx. Jimmy's Bronx Cafe. Every day begging me to be in the movie Shaq. I was supposed to be in Glory. I had to do something, so I told Denzel, go hold it. Yo, what's wrong with you, man? I'm telling you the truth. I had so many opportunities.

42:28I was too busy being in Jimmy's, being a rapper. I was like, yo, acting, I don't give a... Even to this day, my sister She doing a movie right now. I feel bad for her. I'm like, damn. She's like, yeah, 18-hour days. Acting is almost torture. It's fun. It's great. I think it lasts longer than music, to be honest with you. If you have a fucking hit movie, if you have a car. I'm not mad at the movies with you on the sofa with the gun in the sofa. I'm not mad at that film. I love it. I'm not mad at you two in the jail or on the camera when you was talking. and like, see, I fuck with you with them shits, B.

I couldn't get mad at such a... I thought Nori did it one time, but when it went straight to my email, I would have never known because it didn't tell him on the phone that I got an email.

He said, Eric, I've been sent that. so again on the email yeah it was on the email you know the artists say Remy Remy would meet DMX he would tell her he's gonna do a song where I should come back this is a young Remy and she'll come back and I'll be like I said yo he ain't doing this I'll be like you know it's certain artists you would meet that's what happened with me when I met R.

This song changed my life. But, you know, we talking about guys who you meet and you swear you're going to do a song with then they disappear. And I used to have like Remy would come up to a couple of guys would come up to me and be like, yo, I met such and such.

51:33He said he's doing the song with me, B. I'm like, bro, wish upon a green clover. He said Remy Ma, DMX, he was going to do a record with her. Premature. She was mad young. I was like, I think she could have got that damn thing. Yeah, but Joe said, hell no. That's not going to happen. He did it to Tone Sunshine. Love Tone Sunshine. Like, Tony, oh my God, you incredible. Tony went to LA, hung out with that dude for like a fucking week where he went to do the verse. He fell asleep in the booth, some shit. Tone was like, yo, send me home, God. Like, I can't do it no more after 60 games of pool and this and that and motherfucking riding his cars and all that tone was like, yo, send me.

52:20It is what it is. You know what I'm saying? Sometimes. Listen, man, I was one of them, B. Easy, man. So I know. Oh, you know. No, no, no. No, no, no. But you missed it. I was one of them. That's why I don't even look at it. I was one of them. I promise you. Niggas would say, I was like, yo. And there'd be production most of the time, sometimes. I'd be like, I just didn't do it. Bernard Alexander, he saved my life. I was already in. He told me about that. Wrong skin. About money. Yeah. Like, I was in the Bronx, caked up, and I refused to move. Even though I was in the nicer part, it was still Thrasnake, one and one.

52:55And my wife was like, yo, we got to get out of here. All these strange cars keep coming around here and this and this and that. And so I hit up Bernard. Bernard was like, come to Jersey, bro. We be over here. It was brand new. Changed my life. Brand new. It was. Got the townhouse in the water. Townhouse in the water. Yeah. Know what I'm saying? And inside that building, though, kids, it was me, Joe, Dave, Harster, two short ended up moving over there. So we was all in that. What I know was crazy is I knew they was hired 50 Cent after 50 Cent got shot. I'm waiting for 50. Oh, they drove into the polka dots.

53:2750's coming. Right? But he don't know I knew where he was at. Oh, OK. You know what I'm saying? But you know. He don't know. But Bernard was managing it. Huh? Bernard was managing it. Yeah, it was none of my business. Oh, yeah, at the time. I didn't really know either side or whatever. And they was like, yo, I can't 50 Cent. just got hit up. I was like, all right. You know what I'm saying? Like, what do you want me to do? They have, you know, we had a good time over there. Let's talk about the new project. Okay, good. Okay. Okay. We had enough because we flexed. Jada went to the bathroom because he wanted to hear about himself.

54:02And then we had the product promoted and you flexed about, what time was it? What's the new project? You got the Eddie Murphy shit where you can close the roof? No. Eddie Murphy let me tell you that documentary that's how I want to see my OGs now after you we have Bill Bellamy that's really what I don't want to talk to you about Eddie Murphy but I watched you saw the Eddie Murphy documentary that shit was fire and that's how I want to see my OGs big yeah we never saw him flex before like that all the motherfuckers dying broke and all this and this and that I'm just happy Joe you know nobody I keep telling you We're not taught.

54:45If we was taught literacy about money and how to do certain things, Paris was the one that showed me about homes. Because he bought them first early. I'm like, you know, what are you doing? You know, with the houses and stuff. I didn't have no house at first. He did. I had an apartment. And I didn't know. And then Burt Padell was everybody's accountant. So Burt Padell was doing what he can do. But he was a crook. No, Burt would just get you what you needed. but he was switching the he was switching your social numbers back then so for the gig to get credit let me go take a piss break let me hear about I want to hear about Burt I want to hear what Burt was let me hear what Burt was doing the bank was in the downstairs so say if you're young and you're new see I didn't my social number wasn't the social number that he had.

55:44So I got to go get a social security card with my mom's one time, and it was a different number. That's when I noticed, okay, before you heard about the scams of getting dead people or getting whatever like that, that's what was happening. So if I wanted a new Benz or a home or something like that, I didn't have credit. But here, you got credit now because here's the new social. it wasn't said like that until you look at it you know what I'm saying but that was you know again something that we didn't we didn't know till later Bird Pieces was it and then early Bird was already yeah but we didn't know he had every client everybody was with Bird everyone actors so whatever was him but when I went to get a new social security card and it was a whole different number.

56:40And then I found out, okay, this is how you can get things with these socials when I learned stuff. But again, being taught about money, we didn't know about money. Everybody had the same program. Lawyer, accountant, business management, the whole nine. I didn't know the lawyer was working with the label until later on, no matter how funny they speak to you, everybody is in cahoots with each other. So this is how it works. But you didn't learn that. You think everybody is just cool. But the business, it is a business, you know? And you find out later on.

1:01:36I had an attorney that I really trusted and I really, really loved. Went to his kids' bar, missus, family, cookouts, this, this, that. My accountant that I had, his son became a quadriplegic, so he had to tend to his son because he was in an accident. So my attorney that I trusted and loved forever introduced me to an accountant. this accountant is the guy who stole my money and I eventually went to jail for so I never fucked with this guy again my lawyer I told him yo bro I can't fuck with you no more you set me up with this guy now I seen him yesterday I'm in Miami I got a private show for Harborview all of it I seen that you know I'm there Harborview baby in the scotch so it's like I'm up in there you know Laura Piana you know he said big money was in the building so I had to throw the Laura Piana I don't even know who that is oh what is that don't buy a fucking don't buy a handkerchief in that bitch that shit real deal you know what I'm talking about Danny that shit never level but anyway I come out the elevator and I see him I come out the elevator and I see him last time I saw him was at Chris Lighty rest in peace right funeral he tried to talk to me I just came out of jail I was like yo my man don't talk to me don't come around me don't talk to me because he also disappeared when I had the case so boom I seen him the other day St.

1:03:14Regis in Miami he was like hey Joe and I said what's up I kept him moving after that and I don't think I'm over him introducing me to the accountant who kind of destroyed my life and I lost all my money went to jail this I just, you know, I tried to be, I was courteous to yourself, but I still felt the way. You know what I'm saying? I went upstairs to my room. I was like, did he set me up? Did he not set me up? There you go. Seek the kingdom. Seek the kingdom. Sometimes you got to smack the shit out of somebody, then seek the kingdom. Yeah, because you went to jail for that. Jail. I also felt like I was somebody that in my own, you know, They can say I'm delusional, but I felt like I was somebody who never really got caught.

1:04:03And they wanted me, whether it was little, big, or something. These boys wanted me. And I felt like somebody got jammed up, and they said, yo, who you got? Fat Joe. Him. Get him. How could you give me him in the platter? And the worst thing is, you got somebody you trust. That's how they get you. Somebody you really, really trust. I just told kids, this whole shit is a business. Everybody works together. The same way Spotify works with the labels. Got to put that out there real quick. Somebody's making some money. Listen, if the president of Spotify in 2024, he made$300 million. He don't own the company.

1:04:44He's just the president. He made$300 million. What do you think Spotify is getting? So they're giving us 0.4 cent. Now Congress has passed the law. They're giving us one penny, right? So 1 million streams get you$14 ,000, right? Before, 100 ,000 streams get you$200. So all this whole system is fucked up for us, for the labels and the people who own Spotify. The president, not the owner, Joe, he made$300 million in 2024. That's great. And then he had a bigger... And these guys all... Yo, listen, they've all been crooks since the beginning of the time. in 2025. Oh, you made 400 million, 460 million in 2025.

1:05:30They take poor people. They got talent. They use them up. And by the time they learn the game, they'll dust you off and make you the old school at noon and get the new young person to jerk. And they just keep doing that and doing that and doing that. And people like Spotify and all that, these people are all... Whoever made... selling products. Whoever made up the point that 1 ,500 spins is one CD. So whoever made up the point that we only get less than one cent. You should get that fucking head, boy. Yeah, one less than... Who made that up. Less than one cent, though, too, is crazy. And then we getting a penny.

1:06:07At least with the label signed, too, we got a quarter at least. I said this all the time. If you sell... Let me ask you something. Let me go right now. Who the fuck the... I know. I don't know. Let me say something. Yeah. You put your pain, your soul, everything into this. let's say it's a CD. If you sold it yourself on a corner for$9.99 and somebody told you you was going to get eight cents? We're not doing that shit. Don't work for fucking EPS. You're right. Right? This is the only business that glorifies you getting right. I know. You get right. And the minute you learn that you've seen Prince with all that slave shit.

1:06:45Oh, no, he saw it first. The first one, him and Londo McMillan was the first one that started doing it. The second he started going like this, you at it? I'm also looking forward to this Michael Jackson movie because I think they're finally going to start speaking truth to light to where why he got attacked like that. You see, you got to understand, we didn't know the sophisticated ways of brainwashing the people and smearing people. They smeared Michael Jackson the greatest of all time. They had us thinking he was crazy. Right now, everybody rocking Botox. People bleaching their skin like it's some normal shit.

1:07:27People sleeping and fucking, what's my man, Forrest Whitaker sleeps in the air machine. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, right, right, right. The richer you get, you doing what Michael Jackson's doing. Right. Buying art. You thinking this guy's crazy weird. He actually was ahead of his time. But even though we never thought Michael was getting jerked, though. Of course. We didn't know that was happening. Yeah, but what I'm trying to tell you is that Michael... You know what I'm saying? but we never Michael different kind of jerk yeah but I'm saying but he for him to come out and say Tommy Mottola's get you know whatever like we never thought that was happening Tommy Mottola's my friend no no no but what I'm saying Sony he's saying that's nuts Sony my thing is hold up we're gonna go back Michael J no it's so pro artist man for the artist no I'm for the artist too my friend and I also say hold up before you start one time I thought you was getting ready to say It's better.

1:08:21That's what I'm talking about now. If only my 8 ,000 fans give me$1, I made$8 ,000. That's more than me, Spotify, the whole nine. Now, if you give me, if 8 ,000 people give me$100, it's$800, right? At the end of the day, if you have a name, why would you want to go and do all that work on that album and go put it on that platform? I don't understand. Not the people that's new. the people who have names. Don't forget, Joe, you can make a record right now. I don't give a fuck how big it is. It doesn't matter. You're already Joe. You're already famous. You're already iconic. You're not going to get no bigger.

1:09:02The record's not going to get no bigger. You're not going to make no bigger record. It ain't going to happen. You're already you. But if you decide to make music, why not sell it yourself? You're already you. Where would you sell it at? Like, www.com? You do it on your own platform. When I do the product, when I'm doing whatever, you got fans. If 8 ,000 people give me$20, 8 times 2 is 16. It's 160 grand. It doesn't matter. Everything you can do direct to consumer is back now. Every www is never left. That means when every time somebody goes on TV, every star, everybody with product, you got to go to a website.

1:09:44It's the same shit. Go back to that. Put that Shopify and that fucking band camp on your shit and go, yo, go get my shit here. And again, let the platform that take it, that's promotion. But at least you got people. Listen, Ice Cube said that once he reached a million, he wanted to reach two million, right? Sell records. But he left a million people back here that was his fans. Your core fans ain't going nowhere. If you tell them to do something, they're gonna. So all of us hear that, you went platinum. them. You don't need a million fans. I said 8 ,000 people give me$200, right? It's$1.6 million.

1:10:23They're going to pay for what you want to give them. That means merchandise the whole nine. I got to preach that because again, that's what you do if you sell a material. If you be selling that though too, even though you, um, again, with a company, what a matter if you didn't, you're fat Joe, you're kiss. It doesn't matter. You do the marketing promotion on yourself and and bring them to your platform. I like to learn new shit every day. And that's what this show is about. I just give you the numbers. Like Jay said, numbers don't lie. It don't matter. They give you 50 bucks, 8 ,000 people. I'm not talking about your millions of fans.

1:11:01I said 8 ,000 and give you 50 bucks. Eight times five is four. That's$400 ,000 from only 8 ,000 people giving you 50 bucks. Talking about money? Come on, man. You talk about that's why people sit here and be like, you want to go broke. You don't want to do something. Here's how you don't go broke. Here's how you have, you know, you have shit making money while you sleep. I'm EPMD. That's why I'm sleeping. That EPMD shirt is why I'm sleeping. That money comes in while you sleep.

1:11:37We got a new project, brother. Tell the people, man, because you've been philosophical today. so we really want you to talk that music. Yeah, the music, well... I got one question. Yeah. I got one question. So you sampled Marvin Gaye. Yes. Right? How much did it cost you to sample Marvin Gaye? $200 ,000. It costed you$200 ,000. Right. Because it cost me that because when Bernard took the CD and went to L.A., he went to a convention that was happening with Clear Channel. They played the record. They added the record. so now they get to stick me up did it too fast so it was 150 it was 150 for Jan God Besser Dead the wife and then it was 50 ,000 dollars for the lawyer but it didn't matter because Clive gave me 4 million so that whole thing of how it went I went to J Records afterwards because Clive wanted to sign me the reason why I bring that up right because Pharrell getting sued.

1:12:43He didn't clear this. He didn't clear it. That's it. What they got sued for, like$7 million or something? $7 million or$8 million. Pharrell is smart. A little, a little. No, no, no. Well, he's kind of... No, no, no. He interpolated the song. He interpolated the song. He did. Listen. He said he didn't know. That was the fuck that part. Yeah, he said, yeah. Yo. It's always the thing to say, man, when you get caught. Yeah. I don't know. It's the smartest thing to say. That's the best thing you got. But it's the dumbest thing when you know the fucking planet Earth knew he jacked Marvin Gaye. The whole fucking world.

1:13:17When you hear the song, it's the same song. Same song. Yeah. They don't send us no Louie. Yeah. They ain't going to send us shit. No, no, no, no, no. Yeah. Yo, hold up. We're buying back one hour, 57 minutes, 36 seconds. Take that part out. We ain't doing that. This is interesting. what I'm saying is if I was around for a while I would have said yo settle with these people cause this it is what it is he was inspired by them whether he knew it or not yeah but listen you missing one Ed Sheeran shit sound like let's get it on and he won play Ed Sheeran's Marvin Gaye's it sound just like let's get it on and he won let me tell you some crazy shit I didn't think he did I went to the videotapes no play the record I did.

1:14:03I swear to God, I did. I went when he won. Just the same way you tell me. Yes, man. I listen to Ed Sherman and that, and I couldn't really make the same.

1:14:15Yo, yo, yo. Oh, my God. Yo, this one, yo, I swear. Ed Sherman. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Yo, when I watch this show, it's his reactions. Because that's what makes y 'all chemistry, I swear. because he leans back and he does this and like, yo. Let me tell you something. You know what this is? This is The Honeymooners where Ralph Crampton and Art Carney. Let's talk about the project now. Let's go. Let's go to the project. Okay, the dynamic duels. So I had it four years ago before COVID. I had the idea before you heard Nas, I figured that my colleagues wasn't working. I was wondering why nobody was making records, right?

1:15:01So I kind of got upset about that in my head. Like, you know what, fuck it, I'm going to make records for them. If they have studio problems, nobody making no beats for them, they'll hold on. So COVID came, so that took two years off. Kevin came and got me, Kevin Lowes. So we did a partnership at$300. $300, Leo Cohen sells it for$450 million to Atlantic. That took a year or something. That's a nice check. Yeah, but isn't that crazy? Leo got$4.50 from Atlantic, which is Mike and Julie, people that he put there. Now, that was a whole play. Keep going. If you didn't figure that one out. That was a whole lot.

1:15:41That was sell to Stiles P's running. Phenomenal. Now, let me sell the Jadakiss records to Stiles P. He got the bag over here. He going to throw you the smithereens. Like, yo, they all ran like this. And now. Let me tell you something. when he sold that shit. Kevin Lyle's my next door neighbor. Right. It was the first sighting I saw of Russell Simmons in like 10 years that it was next door. He called me and said, hello. Come next door. Everybody ran off with the bag. Their whole crew. They are the best that ever did it. Kevin's loaded. That whole, it's all def. Kevin, Leo, Julie, Kaiser. All of them.

1:16:20They took care. Everybody. All of them. Like, I mean, bad mania. All of them is caked up to the movie. Randy Acker. We got Randy Acker. But what I'm saying is they came in this game and said, all right, this is our crew and we're going to eat forever. Yeah. Make sure they're going to eat. Simmons showed up. They were throwing like the we sold the company for$400 million because they first said it was Kevin Lyles. Now you're saying Leo Cohen. I'm sure it was. You know it's not Kevin. That's Leo's company. You know they were saying Kevin Lyles. Kevin Lyle's through a party. He lives next door to me.

1:16:56Yeah, of course he is. He got money. Trust me. Kevin Lyle's lives 1A. I'm 1A. He's 1B. His house is right next door to mine. Wow. Russell Simmons FaceTimes me out of nowhere. I ain't seen him in 10 years. He said, come over. We're celebrating Kevin selling the company. I'm letting my fat flow. I got no shirt on, no nothing. I just put a T-shirt on. I go over there, put on my shorts. I go over there. and they celebrating. And I just, the way I think, you know what I mean? The hustling me, I said, damn, this man came over here to pick up the bag. They sold it. Russell Simmons came to pick up the bag.

1:17:37They just sold it. Check is in. Wire is in. Russell came from fucking Malaysia or some shit to get the bag, and he's going back. Everybody's caked up. It's what I'm trying to tell you. Every member of the crew caught something. You know, I just signed that deal with Leo. Well, I deal with partners in AI now, but that's another flex. But partners in AI? I went to his crib, right? I looked at a picture on the wall. It was a baby picture. Me and my man went there. Baby picture. I said, how much that picture? Because in my head, I'm just saying that it might cost whatever. He said, yeah, I paid$12 ,000 for it, but it's worth$5 ,000.

1:18:23It was a picture of a baby. This up. You know, whatever. I want to put this out there. Yo, I'm a graffiti legend. I want to meet Banksy. Who's that? Banksy's the illest artist in the world never shows his face. Yo, I don't know what's wrong. I don't know. Yeah, okay, listen. He don't believe nothing. Okay, listen. I don't know why. Wait, okay, listen. Let's go back. So, Dynamic Duo. Yo, listen, listen, listen, listen. Let me just get that. Banksy, somebody know Banksy. Fat Joe wants to meet the real Banksy face-to-face. I don't rat. I don't nothing. He's an artist. Nobody sees his face. But I'm a huge fan.

1:19:05We don't know where he's at because then we would have found him in the UK. And then it could be in Afghanistan, wherever, my name. Banksy just don't get sick. Okay, but Banksy Fat Joe needs you. Okay, one second. Okay, so after that, the shit was three and a half years so far. So now I do the Biggie Smalls Tupac record, right? So I get Biggie cleared, but the Tupac estate, I offered his sister$100 ,000. I give you$100 ,000 and you can keep the rights to the record. She didn't say yeah. I said no, but she wasn't coming back fast enough with the reaction. So I'm like, so what's going on? I found out that she was going through it with Universal, but then using Tupac music and making money off of it.

1:19:49In the movie? No, this period. Yeah, yeah, that too. So that delayed me. But I waited as long as I wanted to because I wanted to have that on the project, right? So anyway. I want to say, I don't know how. I cleared Tupac. And his lawyer owns the rights. Yeah, at that time. But now she's suing that. She need to get it. Like, I did not understand when I was paying the lawyer the$100 ,000. No, I went through every. Bernard called everyone that did the Tupac before with the RL. shit when you saw the video. Whatever we went to those people, we went to everybody. Nothing. So that gave more time. I thought his mom's fact she must have left it to the lawyer.

1:20:29I didn't have no clue. I didn't understand that. So how a lawyer robbed Wathen things on Stoop. Right. So then I had Prodigy. New vocals, the whole nine, so whatever. I called my lawyer. He called which is, you know, his friend Kevin. Then I talked to Pryce's wife on the phone. She sounded like she was saying, don't worry about it. I'm going to check the record out whenever I get back to you. Right? No call. I'm texting. There's nothing there. You know? So I'm like, so that's a holdup. So I get that late. That took time. I called Sean Pryce's wife. Then I talked to Drew Ha. Right? She says, call Drew.

1:21:18You know, I got Drew's number. so Bernard you know good guy just called Jew Jew said cool I still took time Nate Dogg estate I gotta call these people and say too do you want the money just tell me a thing it just took time eventually they didn't want nothing so you see all these people on the album that passed away it take time for the estates cause don't forget if they can't find Kiss then we gotta wait to find kids. The estate means everybody on the estate has to say yes if they're on the paper. So you can just have one person or you can have eight people. I tried to clear a sample one time.

1:22:02It went to the point of like, the man's dead. We got no more family members and nothing like that. We went to the burial type shit. They went to the, you know, the sample. The people who cleared the sample, they was like, yo, he ain't cashed a check. in 13 years. There's no... Like, we was looking like, you got to clear these samples because then it's on you if you let them go. Right. And they come back and sue you for that real money. Right. So anyway, all that happened and now it's coming December 5th. So again, this is volume one. Right.

1:22:41So volume one. It ain't just everybody who's there because I heard the record. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. The record was sold. Yeah, but that was a while. That's when they sold 300. I didn't get a chance to get that. That was the first record that came, and it's gone now. But Reddermeth, Snoop Dogg and Nate, Helter Skelter, M.O.P., Cypress Hills, EPMD, Dog Pound, Conaway, The Machine, Game, Lil Wayne, Mobb D.

People that's watching this tour, to be on this sofa and to be with two. Again, it doesn't matter, man. Successfulness, Joe, you. We used to sit back and be like, yo, damn. He got another one? Or he got another one? Because in this, to come back and do every decade, don't forget, this is a decade from the 90s, 2000s, and then the late. So it's three decades of still being able to be relevant and still be able to say he was dropping music and not just regular shit.

1:33:48This was big records being made. It was hard to do that. People said, too, how did Eric be able to come back and come back with music from EPMD 1988 to 2001? you know that's a people don't do that that's a feat to be doing that you know what I'm saying so at the end of the day though you know again this shit right here is uh is what people talked about what they also felt on the sofa like this is a show that you guys listen man y 'all my boys but it's different shows y 'all came up fast you know what I'm saying like yeah we're not playing no it was fast people probably thought regular y 'all niggas be hatin like oh yeah that shit ain't gonna work They definitely were saying that.

1:34:30I know, nigga. I'm telling you I was out there. I watched the funniest guys to the richest guys. Yeah. I know what all the motherfuckers are saying. I was watching them. Nobody was believing. They were like, this thing ain't going to work. Ain't going to work. I knew it would. You want to know why? Because we respect the culture. We respect. Yeah, but it was the personalities. Yeah. About those who don't hang together. They don't talk. The way I look at this, I look at this no different than Shaquille O 'Neal. I'm Charles Barkley. You Kenny Smith. Oh, okay. He really played the game. And we respect and salute the legends on another level.

1:35:09You understand what I'm saying? Like, I used to watch these hip-hop documentaries, and they have guys on there commentating like they knew, and I'm like, I don't know you. And I got to know everybody. Hold up. You got the locks? Jay's like what are you talking about? Because if I couldn't get him that way you was going to get him. Exactly. Vocals they laid down somewhere. Damn chest. You see that man? Motherfucker making up the pasta noops. Dirty dog. They doing you dirty. Yo but listen it was just my version of it Joe until I get it to happen I had to make certain things. I ain't going to lie to you I don't want to die, but they definitely have a hundred Fat Joe verses in different studios out there that I just did one day and kept it moving, knowing that they would benefit off of it.

1:36:04I then went in regular bullshit studios, kicked 16, broke out. That's almost like, here you go. This is a retirement. So when, you know, Fat Joe's out of here and they put together the pasty shit, you know, y 'all got some shit. Y 'all can make a couple of dollars off that shit. You know what I'm saying? you know how a motherfucker put the shit together I'm DJ Zaddy Black pull out your verse from Fat Joe one dollar fella pull out your verse you got a couple of dollars coming your way they all looking like huh he knows we kept that shit yeah I know you hey kids you probably won't even remember and nobody's gonna know cause it's a record that again it didn't go you know so I could've asked them and said yo and it still would've been like oh shit you heard that knew, you know what I'm saying?

1:36:53I could have did that. But again, but now, since we know whatever it is what it is, I'm just going to play it for Siss and Giggles. B-I-G. Yes, that was dope. B-I-G. So you didn't hear that yet? No. Yeah. Well, I'm not talking about that. I was talking about the only thing in the history of life I didn't appreciate was like, Ziggy after he died, they was making... Yeah, I know, I know. All type of shit. I was just like. Same vocals though. I know. Same shit with two words. Two of, yeah, different. They freestyled it in the radio and changed two words. Mine didn't like that. And they did, yeah, that shit.

1:37:30You're not going to believe when you hear my shit. You're going to think them two was in it together. They rapped to the beat. Fucking legend. Yeah, dude, this is called, um, it's called Where You At? Featuring the Locks.

When you hear them three letters, you know that they represent it. I could go anywhere. Here's those I got. I do it for the east as long as I got the coast. Go out on my shield as long as I got my oaf. Hip-hop can never be dead long as I got a post. I was a fly on the wall. Soaked it all up to spit it out with aggression. Felt away about it every since with affection. You better believe that the bottles is on deck. A's glue cookies gelato is on deck. Never sober is never over.

1:39:15Roll out 21 deep in 11 rovers. Head and shoulders That's where they point them things at Playing the game See how many heads we can bring back Yeah, at least it be authentic When you hear them three letters You know that they represent it L-O-X Where you had to be right here, dawg Where you had to be right here, dawg When you hear them three letters You know that they represent it

1:39:45That's great Do you remember that verse? You don't even remember it, right? You know, sometimes I go overseas and they have an after party and they start playing Fat Joe records. I swear to God, I sit there like, I don't remember them shits. They be playing shit. I be like, where did I do that? But everybody that I played heard you just now and you watch The Room, niggas like, what is that? That shit was incredible. Again, the rhymes was... But again, I could have. But I didn't want to do that because, again, I know how hard it be too, yo. I did that before. I know that. But it's a new record to everybody.

1:40:27I want Eric Sherman to produce my album. Take my whole shit. Are you going to play golf? I want to cheat, though. Give him the motherfuckin'. Just the last one and we're going to go. We got to go. We got to go, Eric Sherman. But this is a lower vibration of what I would do. This is Conway the Machine, Lil Wayne and gang It's gonna be kinda long cause it's slow But it's the vibe, that's all It's over Everything starts from now We all go down unless we stay together Ain't no one man above the crew You know that shit I ain't shit I ain't never gonna be shit You remember that motherfucker God mode, new God flow I'm God's son, 12 Gooses, my apostles When I air a sermon, it's gospel.

1:41:15My blow leave a pretty bitch with a snot nose. My blow leave a nigga chest with a pothole. Congo, gorilla like I'm from Congo. I go on a rap tour of Velazzo. I saw the Coliseum's, my name Colasso. My hoes, Doritos, homie, that's nachos. Condos on the top flows, Picassos. Hanging up on the walls at all of my spots, though. Yo, bitch, my dick smacking the tonsils. My fans be moshing like they at rock shows My man had a button on a high pole My yams the guard cook on a high stove Spent a ticket at South Ridge It's just the cop clothes What's saying, nigga? Now I saw it coming like a blind face I could see the future with my eyes closed These verses like some scriptures in the Bible On the Bible I'm in God mode Highway to heaven, no potholes I put you on that highway to heaven and take the high road.

1:42:10God knows. I'm weathering the storm, still in dry clothes. Still got my foot on niggas' necks, my nigga five toes. Got shot hoes coming out their shells like tacos. Got that wholesale and pussy wholesale like Costco's. I still come with syrup like Roscoe's and I got those chickens in the trunks with no wafo. That's Blanco. Pina Colada. I'm your cocaina provider. It's sweet as vagina. Trap house jumping like the Ramada. I like the Rwanda. Get high until I feel Nirvana. In ciphers I vomit. These rappers are biting like dama. When time is an issue, when I send a peck out as a missile. Dog fool, I done turned the trap house to a kennel.

1:42:45Brick man, in Miami they calling me Brickle. Hey, if you five I won't charge you a nickel word. Now it's all coming like a blindfold. But I can see the future with my eyes closed. These verses like some scriptures in the Bible. On the Bible, I'm in God mode. Last gangsta rapper alive, I swear to God against all lies. The only nigga that show up to shit without a squad. My presence is fit. Heart rates rise when my essence appear. No Stephen A. Smith here. I don't wear my hat open my ears, nigga. My influence on these rap niggas like Hennessy. And if we on the same song till it fade out, you my enemy.

1:43:19Lee Harvey and Kennedy. Dome shot. And I mean that shit. Like Saucy Santana trying to pull up my academics beat. So stop playing. Like a one hit wonders first song. Before I take you back to the old game. With the bald head and the shirt long. I'ma be here after the earth gone. When the ocean dry up. Weighing out fish, girl. Smoking herb till all the dirt gone. Fuck you new niggas You making a spot high You ain't gonna last for long It's like you shot pop Hated to love it The underdog still in the drop top And no blue French kissing something In one of them diesel crop tops Two Cubans around my neck Like I got to work Your last album So 20 ,000 the first week That got to hurt That's why I listen to Brent Foyaz And Papa Perk But not before I call Eric Simon to make sure he got the verse Now I saw it coming like a blindfold But I could see the future With my eyes closed Express his license, scriptures in the fireball.

1:44:07On the fireball, I'm in God mode. Let's listen to DT Vestals. Big time, big time, big time. December 5th, the album is called Dynamic Duo. Dynamic Duo. Dynamic Duo. Put the mob deep on.
