He'll tell you, I told him about the fight. Told me immediately. I said, it's different. Let me tell you something. You know when they say, don't let that go over your head or you get that on the way home? They motherfuckers kill me every episode. When I watch the episode, I said, what the fuck? They guys shoot me from the side on this motherfucker. Yo. I said this motherfucker I did I caught on too I was like well some of the stories I mean like yeah we're gonna be honest Resh some of the stories I don't know I don't know oh no they real no no I know they real I'm saying crack some of the stories like they go they go some of them they go hard some of them they go hard right a hard right crack like you'll have me crack don't have me you go like no that's what we We had to talk to them niggas.

6:23We pulled up on them. But when we pulled up on them, I had to flamethrower. Whoa. Crack, what'd you have? I had to flamethrower out the trunk. Because niggas didn't know back then. Back then, I was pulling up on niggas. I was setting niggas on fire back then. By the way, ask Sammy. Sammy was with me. Sammy, he always cracked a lot of names. He always thought of random names. Oh, ask Sammy. Sammy was there. Sammy was a nigga. He's a fan in the show. All right. All right. All right. Do me a favor. Back that instant. Hold on. That just killed y 'all, though. I didn't want it. Sammy was there. Go ahead.

7:07Sammy was the one with the fire extinguisher. So before I move on, because I'm saying a lot of shit, niggas might not believe me. Sammy had the full fire shit on. he puts a dramatic pause on you he'll stop he'll stop so you register he had it on around the time Steve Stout came with a tennis racket he couldn't believe the guy can go right in yo listen yo Kev yo Kev now to my defense how many times have you heard from opposite people and confirmed. Working on another show with that. Because people come in, it's always somebody that was there. Like, yo, Kiss, you know that story crack. Kiss is in a tough spot.

7:58He ain't lying. He's in a tough spot. Here's why Kiss is in a tough spot. Kiss, not only is he working with you, but some shit is hitting him where he's like, this is true. Right? But Kiss also sometimes be like, whoa. Right? Oh, yeah. He'll go, whoa. But he sucks. He backs you. He does a good job of backing you. He keeps getting confirmed. I told the man, I'm from Philly. Fifth of the Allegheny. The Badlands. That is the Badlands. That's the Badlands. Confirmed. You know how every local place have a blog or Instagram? Them motherfuckers put that up.

8:39I've seen him with the Cowboys. I said, what do you want me to do? You want me to lie? They fucked up. They're paying us to talk shit. And this is what we do. And it's true. As a fan of brilliant storytellers, there's nothing better than a good story with confirmations. Even if you get 65 % of a confirmation, that's strong. I got more than that. I'm not saying that that's your number. 65 is a good number. 65 is a good number. To me, let me tell you something. To me, if 10 guys, your security almost ain't let me in. Your security almost ain't let me in my show. Nigga hit me with the boom, right?

I think I'm going 22 bats behind my head, crack. I think I am. I think I am.

10:17See, that's the extra sazon you're going. That's the sazon. Now, if niggas take all them bats chasing with all the bats right there, it won't feel like a hundred. Yeah, you're going to say it's a hundred. We're holding bats. We can't understand. I get it. We understand the way you write the script. But the origin is truthful. I grew up in a project building with 1 ,500 people the whole project building, 14 floors everybody had nine kids and what we did the way he knows our names and numbers I've been to a lot of projects Philadelphia, we have projects there's tons of them tons projects it's low-income housing, right?

15:37I'm going to analyze one of your movies. Yeah, yeah. Or one of your fucking things. And I'm going to go fact check from story to story. I'm going to be like, oh, no, this motherfucker. You know the heart of a generation. I have never embellished about a story that I've told in my life. The only story where people thought I was embellishing that I had to go back and give them the facts was a story about when my dad got jumped. My dad got jumped. This is one of my most vivid memories as a kid. It's the first time I actually, in real time, saw somebody, like, really get their ass to beat it. It wasn't a favor?

16:11Yeah, but it wasn't a jump. It wasn't really a jump. They beat up my father one time in front of me. Oh, Lord, man. Let me hear this one. My dad is this dude. They're getting into it. My dad is over. It's over-contracting. My dad fucked up He was supposed to lay down Lay down a car A certain way My dad did it his way My dad wanted the money Fuck that, you're not getting this money My dad said, you're going to have to see me The guy says, I guess that's what it is I'm there, I'm a little kid My dad said, can't get in the van I get in the van Got my dad go outside Got to put hands on my dad Hit my dad, four flush shots I'm talking As soon as they say, let's go I'm talking four from the shoulder.

16:53Boom, boom, boom. I'm turned over. He got hands. They got hands in the belly. My dad said, Kev, go. They jumping me. I swear to God. I said, it's just him, dad. Oh, no. It's just him out there.

My dad wouldn't get off the property. So then the guy and his friend just threw my dad in the van. My dad was like, we're going back. Dad, get me out of here. I couldn't even drive. My dad was so discombobulated I'm a little kid.

17:40I'm 12. I can't even drive yet. I had to wait for my dad to shake it off he drove. Later, he wanted to go back and I was like, Dad, I'm just giving you my best opinion. I don't think you should fuck with that guy no more. Right? Like, he did what he was supposed to do. I think the fight should be over. Dad, it was nobody else here. Let it go. My dad took a loss, but it showed me the lesson in that. You don't need to fight everybody. Oh, you know. Yeah. You got to choose wisely. Some people, I think, from a visual perspective, give you the answers and information you need. The guy's shoulders rolled in.

18:17I've never seen a guy with shoulders this day. I'll tell you a flip side story. You ever seen a nigga whose shoulders is this way and I'm like, eat glass. That motherfucker got eat glass.

My father's sisters, okay, would be throwing like sweet 16s for my cousins.
