Kenny Muney on the Young Dolph Trial, Being Blackballed, Ralo Issues, Grove Hero & More

27:51Oh, Lord. Niggas don't even know what a royalty chick look like. Niggas couldn't tell you what they motherfuckers was. I personally, I can't knock people for their own situation. Some people needed that. Some people needed to go to the rest. They go, I'm a hustler, bro. I don't need certain shit. I'm going to be straight regardless if I rap or not. I'm going to be rich anyway. For sure. Who do you think was teaching Dolph the game? Like, because he's giving the game back to y 'all. He tell you all the time. Daddy are talking the game. Shit. And they learned together. Shit, they kept going. Shit.

28:17and I still got one of my coaches right now. You know what I'm saying? So, I can't lose. Like, I ain't gonna, I can't lose, bro. Shit easy, bro. Shit really easy, bro. That's why she really, my mind thangs, I have fun, bro. I have fun with this shit. The money gonna come. It come anytime. Money gonna come, and you ain't got to do no, but keep being there still. Living, having fun. So, you actually enjoying the rap shit, because some people, like, they get on. I enjoy hustling. I don't care about the rap shit. I'm hustling. I'm rap hustling. Yeah. I don't like rap right there, bro. I like making music, talking my shit, touching people, making folks feel where I'm coming from, making folks feel that somebody where I'm at, understand where you at.

28:55Like, I like that part of it. As far as being a rapper, I could carry less about this shit. What you don't like about being a rapper? The attention. I don't like attention like that. I like to be, from what I, how I grew up on the shit I had to do to get my money and do what I do in life, I just want to be, I don't used to being low key, so it's just like right now, I'd be having to go I'd be having to come out of my shell and do what I do but in reality it's like I would prefer to be at the house counting my motherfucking money fucking one of these bitches and goddamn doing what I do this I mean a lot of rappers kind of seem like their motivation is basically like being treated like a king and they just want to be sort of like carried through this business we kings before we rapping they just don't know you put you a king regardless I'm just saying you seem like you have more like a overall business mentality where you just are more interested in the money, more interested in figuring out the business rather than just singly having that rapper lifestyle.

29:53Yeah, I care more about the business. I care more about the money, but I mainly care more about showing people is other ways to do to get out here and be what you want to be. Do what you want to do. Get out the streets. Do this. I just like touching motherfuckers. Like that, too. It used to just be about the money But then as I started getting Like I said started touring and seeing What I'm saying people really Dissecting that shit It ain't just about the money It's about shit I got a Motherfucker watching me Motherfucker look up to me I got a goddamn shit I like touching him I watch what I say now I say certain shit I think people need dirt I care more about that I ain't gonna lie I don't care about that shit I don't care if he ain't number 5 motherfuckers listening to me.

30:39I'm gonna make sure I talk enough shit for them five motherfuckers. I'm gonna try to make them millionaires. I know what time I'm wrong. That's why I creep out. Definitely. So how much did your life change and like what did you start doing differently once you signed to PR? I'm gonna tell you the main thing I started doing differently. I started recording mode for sure. I started. It's like down there like they put me in the gym, gave me a basketball and said, shoot the main jumpers as you can. That's the main thing. My work ethic started. My work ethic went from one foot in, one foot out to put both of your feet in this motherfucking lock in.

31:20There's one, two goddamn just like I said, more diverse fan base, more like starting to have to mind what I rap about, what I talk about, like get more in debt with it. You know what I'm saying? You and my brand a little bit more Cause that one time He like when I talk about The streets He like when I talk about This then But he always Remind me like Bro you Versatile as hell Boy you can talk about Anything like Get in your bag Like that's what I started doing Too Like that's what When I be doing My little one twos On my songs I get to talk about Other shit I ain't always gotta Talk about Kid kid Shoot shoot Trap trout I talk about Plain other shit I get in my bag I got there from I think when I got With brother It made me be like Tap more to what I be wanting my my substance.

32:07Yeah, the substance is what I like to talk about now. Definitely. Yeah, because I feel like a lot of people don't really like talk about their life in its entirety. They just kind of feel like the only thing that they can rap about is the street shit and the street side of things. Nah, you got to talk about mine. Tell somebody I go get some money. Yeah. I ain't gonna lie. Go get the money. There's one mine thing, bro. You know what I'm saying? Like, shit, I don't give a fuck what you coming in when you're in the problem or anything.

36:04Be like, bro, you straight now. You good. Like, you might, like, fight through whatever you got going. Shit, I went through. I ain't, I couldn't, I was in the cast. I had my heart, my shit was balled up like this. Like, couldn't move it like this for a long ass time. And I was like, bro, I'm finna find a therapist, bro. I'm finna figure this shit out. I ain't got no insurance, no nothing. But I'm finna figure this shit out. And shit, I'm young. Going to therapy, figuring this shit out. We, man, you motherfucker, I can move it a little bit now. Cool. I can get my money with it. definitely that's why I treated everything like that bro bro how long ago was it you were like 15 so this was a long time ago and you still feel like you're just getting the feeling back of being able to fully use it this motherfucker just like he's raining he's raining and shit like look you can feel it I can feel it yeah like my nerves I had nerve damage so when you get shot up here I had nerve damage you can't move the motherfucker I went and got a little surgery where I can at least extend it's enough for me you know what I'm saying right I don't care what you going through bro man figure something out man keep it pushing.

37:01That's what's trying for me. They right there trying to make me be like, bro, I don't give a fuck. What I got going, keep pushing. Did that make you more empathetic to people who have disabilities or have lost use of a limb or some shit? You might have never really thought about it before that, but that shit makes you think about how well I'm dealing with. Yeah, I ain't gonna lie. I see motherfuckers who got down, got disabilities, going through little shit. I be like, man, damn, bro, it's a strong person. They strong as hell. They strong. You got motherfuckers. I got a big friend right now. He in the wheelchair.

37:30He paralyzed from a guy down. He can't move his legs, but he got all this upper mind. That man don't want you to help him. He don't want you to push him. He don't want you to do none of this shit. He's strong. He's strong. You know what I'm saying? He don't give a fuck about it. He don't want you to do nothing for him. Like, people who go through shit and got disabilities, they more headstrong than anybody because they got to use their brain because they can't use certain things. I respect them more than a lot of motherfuckers who got both arms, both legs, both ears, both eyes, and don't do a damn thing, lay on their mama couch all day.

37:59Yeah. Because there's like a guy I don't get along with who has a non-operational arm and I've made fun of him a lot for it. And then one of my homies blew his fucking hand off with a firework. And I'm like, oh shit. So much of the shit that I previously said looks super hypocritical now that that happened. I mean, this show, I ain't got no sympathy for the ops though. I ain't got no sympathy for the ops though. I ain't got no sympathy for the ops. We'll go on with doing this. It's not even what it is. Yeah, you're kind of a demon, though. If an ob lost his hand, you're making jokes about it. You're going to find a way to rub some salt in the wound, I'm guessing.

38:39I don't make jokes. No? I don't make no jokes, but I don't give a fuck about your hand. Fuck your hand, though. Fuck you and your hand, but I ain't going to make no jokes about you. I don't make jokes. I don't play. But if it's for sure, fuck you and your hand, though. Well, you got to watch out for those fireworks, because then we got another homie from Chicago who almost the exact same thing happened to him, except it didn't blow the fingers off. he just has like the whole shit is just open. Crazy. Same day. I don't think it came from, I don't think it's from that though. It ain't your fault.

39:07Fuck them fuck. No, it ain't my fault. I'm just saying like you feel like it's your fault because you were trolling him. No, I just felt hypocritical that I like made so many jokes about somebody having a fucked up arm and then all of a sudden my friend got like half a hand missing. I don't make jokes. So whatever happens to me, if I don't like it, something happens to your I ain't gonna make no joke about you, but shit. It's always still a fuck what you got going, fuck what happened. Fuck you. I feel it. Man, Memphis got a crazy reputation, man. Niggas are scared to go to Memphis. Is it like that, like that?

You didn't grow up with these folks. You don't know nothing about these folks. If these folks pull up on me, if I run into a motherfucker, they going to fuck with me because how I fuck with them, I ain't shaking on. I'm saluting a nigga. We can do whatever. We can talk about whatever we own, whatever. But I'm not going to put myself in the environment. I didn't leave from what I came from to put myself in an environment to go trying to be cool in a niggahood.

44:18And they inherit other niggas' beefs and shit like that. And they inherit other niggas' beefs. Yeah, this is how shit happened, bro. Nah. That's why shit, a lot of niggas don't fuck with me because they feel like I can't fuck with him because he fuck with it because I don't want to pick size on this and that and the third. But like, bro, we are rappers, gang. Leave this shit on some rap shit, bro. This ain't, you don't got it in here. Nothing I got going, we rap, bro. Like, some people don't know how to just... It do seem like Memphis divided. Like, certain niggas don't want to do songs. Is it still like that?

44:46Like that's the vibe right now? This shit like that period. It's like that where niggas don't do songs with niggas. My motherfuckers feel like you want to play the rap. They just feel like, man, them niggas just stay to theyself. That's how I'm seeing it. I don't got a few bros niggas who, man, from the biggest to the smallest rappers, man, these niggas see me, they salute me, they shake my hand, they on my page, they in my likes, they in my stories, they these. Them niggas ain't trying to do no song with me, bro. But I feel like certain niggas just feel like, man, I ain't going to do no song with them because I got to keep this rap relationship with that rap relationship.

45:16They're like, bro, do your thing, bro. That shit might matter to them. I never looked at you like, because you fuck with them, I don't want to fuck with you. You ain't from Memphis, guy. You don't got to pick and choose. But if you choose to pick and choose, it's on you. It don't make me feel no way either. But if somebody privately fucks with you and you guys are real cool, but then publicly, he would never want to take a picture, he would never want to do a song, etc. Do you consider that real or do you consider that kind of fake? I don't fuck with it. I don't fuck with it. I don't hit niggas up.

45:47Damn, bro, you acting like this. I don't say shit about this shit, bro. This shit don't move me. I'm going to be trying to without you. I don't be studying this shit. But it's a lot of that going on. It's a lot of that going on. Like niggas like what a nigga got going. Fuck with what a nigga got going. I ain't finna help what you got going. I ain't finna do that because I look at it like a nigga be scared bro, I ain't gonna lie, I don't know if you're scared of what I can do where it's gonna go or I don't know if you're scared to lose your rap relationship, I don't give a fuck to be honest bro, I was taught to go get the money, shit I thought y 'all was in this shit to go get the money, shit I make good movies you make good movies, you a real nigga, I'm a real nigga shit let's go get the money man, if you don't fuck if I don't fuck with somebody that you fuck with guess what y 'all best friends, y 'all these, y 'all that like if this relationship is cost that then it's cool I ain't I ain't move they don't move me we ain't gotta fuck with each other how you feel about like buying features you ain't with that or buying features yeah like you're buying features mine ain't gonna lie to you bro I don't give a fuck about that either cause bro me even though I'm turn and I know my numbers my numbers bro I got way more love than niggas who got bro numbers ain't shit really sometimes bro like I got way more love and more fans than niggas who do numbers but guess what I don't feel like if I need you on something I want you to do something to make you move I give you some money bro I'm a business man I need this shit done I don't want you to do it On your time When you feel like it You doing me a favor Like bro I gonna pay you To gonna get this shit Out the way bro I don't look at this Buying the future I look at this buying My time Your time Let's get to this money Whatever I put into it I do numbers It's coming back I'm cool with it I don't even tripping So you will ask A rapper for a future though Cause some You know some niggas Be like man I ain't got no Pride If I fuck with your music I like what you doing I like what you got going I'ma salute you I'ma tell you I like this song I listen to all music I listen to everything that drop anything that drop I listen to all that shit you feel me I ain't got no problem telling you how you hard but you hold your nuts on me I'ma hold mine on you too though I ain't know ain't none of that going on either I'ma let you know I fuck with you cause that's how that just shows who the real nigga in the situation I know you fuck with me too but you ain't gonna say it unless you see me you know what I'm saying you an I see a nigga make a mistake and watch a nigga story or make it, you know what I'm saying?

48:12I'm seeing all that. It's crazy because like, I've seen a lot of people fall out over one person, ask the other person for a feature and then they try to charge them and then they just get so offended that that's just the end. I can't wait for you to tell me something so I can go on, man, come on, brother. Get this shit out the way. I'm independent. I will talk about a bitch. Man, here, bro. Get this shit out the way. I got shit to do. Especially like when you're around really successful people and you realize that a day in the life of one of these big name rappers is very valuable. Like they have a whole different array of things that they could choose during a day.

48:45Shooting a music video might take bare minimum three, four, five hours. They got to get dressed. They got to get their people together. They got to get security or whoever their team is going to be occupied that day, et cetera. Once you start putting all those things into place, giving somebody 20 K for a feature doesn't really seem that crazy. Some cold shit. I tried to pay no for a feature. He just told me, no, I paid for it I got a song I did with Dove Before I was signed to Dove I took to the radio station I paid for the radio station He told me I'm going to give you your money back We arguing about this type of shit I want to spend my money I tried to pay Dove for the feature He like bro, hell nah I ain't going to charge you I paid for the video I'm trying to take my money out of my pocket to pay for the video He like bro you ain't got to pay for the video I want to spend my money Because I respect I respect time bro Like There's some money bro Let's We finna spend some money Let's make some money You doing me a favor here bro Like let's Let's make this shit good business I don't respect Niggas Who Goddamn Sit up and Be like Man I was gonna do it I wanna fuck with you I wanna this They ain't gonna say it to you I just know You know what I'm saying I just know how Be like man I wanna fuck with But this shit gonna be Thought out But now I'm gonna keep bumping them in private I'm gonna keep I'ma keep goddamn telling my bitches about it I'ma keep on goddamn when the bitches turning my own bob in my head Rapping the shit with it He's like my nigga know you I don't respect that I don't respect folks who know they fuck with you But they not gonna fuck with you because of what you got going on It's like bro y 'all niggas be having shit going on Y 'all weird we ain't on there I don't give a fuck what you got going on You're weird sign thing I said You come to the city Come to the city Do what you do And come on bet your business I come to nigga's seat I wanna do what I do don't judge me about what I got going on at home this shit house guy right now we having a business motherfucker don't be wanting to have no business motherfucker be wanting to be street niggas they want to be in the smoke they want to feel a part of something they want to you niggas you still lying apart at night bro but you feel like that's just influenced by the current climate where dudes feel like nobody cares what they got going on unless they got some shootout beef to be talking about yes bro yes all this shit my niggas think I know it's so many more ways to get some money than the goddamn beef, bro.

51:06Beef might make a little money, but shit, at the end of the day, most shit you can do to make some money than beef, bro. I feel like back in the day, being involved in some crazy beef or having been shot or shot somebody, whatever, like that shit actually kind of moved the needle in terms of people paying attention. But I can think of a lot of examples of people who have been in crazy shootouts, etc. And that shit ain't moving their fucking streaming numbers. like it's all in the news it's all anybody's talking about never at any point does somebody think oh let's go listen to their project man come on that's not how it works motherfuckers not anymore you got niggas need that they career going down so bad my dad there's some niggas out here my dad been undead something to their down so just to try to get some clout and get somebody to pay attention they still ain't gonna pay breath day if the music ain't good I don't care what light they put on you you're not gonna stream point blank period I'm gonna stream regardless cause I got shit going on.

52:03So it's just like some niggas, I might want to do a feature with a nigga who turnt up right now. You might feel like, damn, bro, I'm turnt right now. Guess what? You gonna start streaming when that shit die down. I ain't gonna die down because my folks is die hard, die sick. They from the mud with me. They watch me. I got a store. I got a catalog on building. I got shit going on. You happened overnight. That shit gonna fall overnight. So you got that confidence because you've just seen it that your fan base just ain't going anywhere when you drop the show up. I got that cold in because I'm that nigga.

52:34And I know what's up with me. They know what's up with me. They're listening. I know what's up. Do you ever feel like you ever got cold and had to figure out how to heat up again? Yes, that's why I know how, that's how I know I'm that nigga. Like, I can go, I don't know. Fuck getting cold, I will ice myself. God damn, I will literally say I'm not dropping shit. I'm not, bro, I drop once a year, really. If you go look at my catalog, it don't even look like I be trying, bro. Like I've done dropped once a year This year is probably gonna be the first year That I drop two projects in a year Like I don't and that's not because I be on no cocky shit or I think I'm this I be really trying to like Work on my craft I care about what I'm doing Bro quality over quantity Bro you feel me like I wanna get you for Quality that's why I'm not gonna die down cause I'm Always give you something to talk about I'm always I'm gonna rap about my progression I'm gonna bring you down here With me I'm gonna get down there with you and you're going to really feel what I'm going through and what I got going on because I'm going to put you in and we're going to elevate together.

53:33There's basically like two different models is that you could be a young boy who just drops project after project after project and as a result, there isn't as much anticipation necessarily because the fans just have so much music or you could be like a Playboy Cardi and be like, nah, y 'all have to wait four years for this project and then when you drop it, it's really like an event for his family. But you know what the beauty of both of them is? They be in their self. That's why I work. You got a lot of niggas who try to do, you want to do what young boy do. I want to drop a bunch of, young boy just rap a lot.

54:06He want to drop a lot. That's his MO. That's his strategy. It works for him. You know what I'm saying? It's not a right or wrong to what you're doing. It's a you do what you're doing. Niggas don't know how to do them. You got to do yourself. You got to do what you do. Playboy might be like, bro, I drop when I feel like it. That's what works for him. Do it. You might got, man, little 30-round, little goddamn whatever finna drop. And he's saying, damn, bro, I need to do what Youngboy's doing. Damn, I need to do what Kenny Money's doing. Damn, I need to do what Playboy's doing. No, do what you might do.

54:40What your fan base calls for. If your fan base calls for that, do it. I feel like Youngboy's fan base calls for what he do. I feel like Playboy fan base calls for what he do. I don't feel like Playboy needs to drop every week. I don't think it I think there wouldn't be a good thing of him I think his fans like him because he stay authentic he stay like he stay like he keep them anticipated I feel like YV fans need a bunch of music because he turned up he keep them turned they playing this shit all day he's like everything worked for what's worked for you bro being a rapper and dropping that consistently is almost like being like a YouTuber or a streamer where it's like if Kaisenat goes away for four years I mean if he goes away for six months we all gonna be talking about Dan remember Kaisenat but Cardi goes away for four years and it's still huge when he comes back it's bigger because he went away for four years you know exactly you feel like you have to drop again because you just dropped recently like you doubling back again this year I'm doubling back again for sure yeah I ain't gonna lie because that's what my that's what my family called for they like bro you too hard you're too consistent people need to be on you I'm already independent and I already ain't got the machines everybody else got so I would what carries me is my talent and it's like the only way to keep getting my talent.

55:50Sing your head by more and more spreads. Like, more people gotta talk, more people might drop more music. Like, that's what my career calls for right now. So I'm finna drop plenty of shit. You feel like a paper out a little blackball? Would you say that? You can't blackball something that got down. We just ain't going. It's like, like I said, we a little another. We a cook. We can't blackball. By the time you get done trying to blackball and thinking, You gonna be nothing Did all this fuck shit All this sucker shit And followed all this And you gonna be like Man bro Them niggas still over there Getting money Them niggas still over there Turn Them niggas still living life Them niggas still Popping bars Having no money Damn Why am I hating on them niggas You gonna turn into a fan You gonna look up You gonna turn You gonna be like Man I ain't I don't even got a reason To hate on them folks They ain't doing shit wrong They taking care of their family They They Standing on business You know what I'm saying They Getting money they see it.

56:50What are they doing wrong? I think this is kind of interesting because like in Chicago, the fans kind of view it like the BDs and the O-Blocks and the OTFs. Those are the good guys. And then the GDs and the 60-30-ins, etc. Those are the bad guys. But I feel like in Memphis, it's not really viewed that way. It's not like PRE is viewed as the bad guys and CMG is viewed as the good guys. It's kind of like they're both just viewed as like very talented labels, right? Huh? I don't know. I mean, do you think the fans view it as like a good guys and bad guy type situation? Or do you think CMG versus PRE in Memphis being like the two major labels, you know?

57:31I don't know. I feel like PRE is PRE and we do what we do. I don't get there. I don't think we versus anybody. We just turned up. Yeah, we ain't got nothing. We just turned, bro. Like people view us as money. No folks getting money. They turned up. them Dolph boys them folks getting their money they live that's what's going on that's all I think they view I don't think they view it no other way speaking of Dolph like right now like all on the blogs is the trial like they streaming it right now where was you at when you found out Dolph passed away I had just got home from my fucking I had a turkey drive my turkey drive was the day before he died I literally just got back to the house I got down I was sitting on the couch Like I live in a condo I was sitting on the couch I don't even be sitting on the couch And then my phone was just wrong And got down I remember when I Bro I ain't gonna lie I swear to god bro I remember when my phone was wrong bro I just heard somebody yelling bro.

58:45And then I got down. The phone hung up. And I called. Somebody else called me. Like Bridget Dodger got shot. And I'm like what? And I just remember dropping the phone bro. And I was like mine bro. I prayed. I swear to God I prayed. And I'm like mine bro. Hell nah. Like I'm spiritual bro. I be like mine. Hell nah. It can't be going on. Get back on the phone. Like bro.

I cried for it. I mean, I'm like, bro, this shit was unbelievable.

59:20I couldn't believe the shit, bro. I didn't believe the shit really was real. The shit didn't seem real to me, bro, for so long, bro. I feel like I was just in a dream. I feel like this shit was just a dream, bro. Like, I feel like this shit was a dream, bro. Was you shocked by finding out that he was just driving around? Like, because he went to Makita's Cookies and everyone was shocked that he was just moving around in cars that everyone is familiar with. Is that normal for him just to be riding around Memphis in the Raps cars? It's normal for Douth to do this shit anywhere, bro. It's Douth, bro.

59:53They might do this shit anywhere, bro. Might drive in his car. He gonna have whoever he want to ride. He gonna be him and that person. He just... It's Douth, bro.

That's how he was anywhere. Atlanta, LA, whatever. That's how he was. What was that time period afterwards like in terms of all the different people from the label and his family, etc.? Do you feel like it brought his friends and family closer together after that? I feel like we was already close. I feel like we brought in by then. I feel like we was already close based on the fact of the impact he had while he was here. It's like we just carry on as he gone, bro, because it's like 100 % just carry on, but he stood on what he stood on, bro.

1:01:37Like, he stood on my brothers being a family. We a family, bro. Like, he stood on it. He's like, then, I can't say it brought us closer because we was out. It's like we were close anyway.

And not trying. Like, who's on there? You? Me, Glock, Moochie, Snoop, Begon, Shot Towner. What? Yeah. Woo. Shit. Yeah. Is Gro Hero part of Paper up? Gro Hero Paper up for sure. Right, right, right.

Nah, that nigga do be funny, he be having a little funny. That nigga funny as a motherfucker, bro. He recently got shot, though, right? Yeah, he got shot. He's great.

1:04:33He just said what he said. I don't talk to folks about the decisions they make. I just tell people if you make a decision of them decisions you want to make, I make my own decisions. I do what I do. I don't know. I just raise different. I don't really get into it like that. I don't look that deep. If I got a partner who's snitching or he a snitch, I don't hang rats.

1:06:00My thing is, or my question is to you, would you actually want to see the people that's being convicted actually charged, or do you believe in street justice, whatever? As a street person, how do you? I just wish, bro. Even for a doll's family? I wish the world would just play. This episode is supported by FX's The Shards, a seductive drama from executive producer Ryan Murphy.

1:06:43FX's The Shards, now streaming on Hulu. Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here from Mint Mobile. Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless for$15 a month is back. so I thought it would be fun if we made$15 bills but it turns out that's very illegal so there goes my big idea for the commercial give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch up front payment of$45 for 3 months $90 for 6 months or$180 for 12 month plan required$15 per month equivalent taxes and fees extra initial plan term only greater than 50 gigabytes may slow when network is busy see terms I just wish they had just put certain type of people right here certain type of people right here put these type of laws over here put these type of laws over here and just let niggas decide which world you want to go to bro cause at the end of the day I feel like niggas do wrong I ain't talking about that situation I'm just speaking hypothetically niggas do wrong I feel like when people do wrong man, woman, person you do something wrong you got a consequence, you need to die I feel like your consequential people should die.

1:07:57This is how I look at shit. Some people, you should just die. Like I said, this is me speaking hypothetically. Yeah, yeah. And in other words, I feel like, bro, when you're a good person, you got good shit going on, you're a day-to-day person, you ain't in no drama, no nuns, and you take care of being, you take care of your family, you ain't on all that. I feel like people like that, they want justice. They deserve their justice, bro. I just feel like it's worlds. And like I said, this ain't got nothing to do with the situation I have. I'm just saying my opinion on the world, bro. You got people who need justice.

1:08:31You got people who want justice. You got people who live a normal type of life. You got people who live other type of lives. They want people dead. It's like pick your world. That's how I look at shit. I know my world. You feel like it's safe in Memphis, though? Because if you read in the Alphardavid and stuff they're saying in court, they're saying that the niggas had$100 ,000 on Dolph Head, and then they saying even the niggas around them, like they saying like even general people, like just the members like you, the 50 ,000 of y 'all niggas says, like when you hear shit like that in the Alphadavid, does that make you think twice about being in Memphis or move differently?

1:09:05I ain't nobody putting no money on my head. That's what it was saying in the Alphadavid. I ain't nobody putting no money on my head. I ain't gonna lie, I don't lick it. Like I said, I don't. I mean, you wouldn't really know, right? I ain't nobody putting no money on my head. So how would you know? I'm right here with you. Well that just means that they didn't collect They ain't thirsty enough They ain't nobody Ain't nobody put no money on my head You don't believe it I mean it sounds good A lot of people like to say Oh yeah so and so got money on his head It just sounds good bro A lot of shit be fair to you bro A lot of shit folks just be fair Folks just talking bro A lot of shit just be talking bro But not necessarily Because they were saying it was$100 ,000 I was on Dolphin and then I guess a lot of shit just be talk bro I don't I live a life bro I just know what's in front of me I don't go about what I hear I go about what's in front of me I don't know I don't listen to the talk I know my nigga not here and god damn shit I don't look at it from what everybody else look at it I just look at it my nigga not here and I wish he was there Are you somewhat keeping up with the trial?

1:10:19Like you seeing what's going on on the news and shit? I just pay attention to shit for my reasons and why I pay attention to stuff, but I ain't got down. Some stuff I can't put my face on. Like I just can't put my eyes on certain stuff, so I don't be like, I be trying to like, I tell you I don't feel like someone still be, sometimes I be hoping I be dreaming about certain shit, so I just be like, man, let me stay focused on it. It's just too like upsetting to your soul to even like sit and watch a YouTube video about this type of shit? You just try to like kind of keep your eyes off it? Yeah, I just drown myself and work.

1:10:54I just go try to work, bro. I just go try to work. I ain't gonna lie, guy. I'd be like, man, I just need to go work, bro. I just do it. What would Dolph do? That's how I look at shit. Like, what would he do? My Dolphin ain't seen the Dolphin just gonna focus, bro. I feel like with the trial, The trial is the trial bro I don't make the decisions bro I don't make Whatever they got going I don't make decisions I just know like I said I just wish it was one world And another world I don't I don't know I don't think about what happened The statistics of it My nigga gone I wish he was here That's it that's all And I know what I gotta do On my end I know what I'm supposed to be doing bro That's all is all I pay attention to what do I supposed to be doing I went there, wish I was there I wish I was there I wasn't there but I'm still here what I supposed to be doing there this is what I be focused on do you think Dolph passing kind of left like a black cloud over the city in a way where it was just kind of it just made rap seem kind of depressing to a certain percentage of people that to them he was just a hero this shit broke a lot of folks hard but yeah that shit broke a lot of folks hard there's a lot of folks that shit broke folks hard that probably don't even wanna that shit probably broke motherfuckers hard that don't like them man truth be told I ain't gonna lie that shit wasn't that shit anybody from Memphis knows for a fact that was not supposed to happen in no type of way it wasn't supposed to happen it's just that that wasn't supposed to happen yeah some people take it a different way cause like alright Rallo I guess he's heard about the situation but I guess you ain't like how he's been handling it or taking it online I just told him something I just told y 'all really bro like Memphis shit Memphis shit shit going on bro like I feel like the shit that he was talking about like I told him bro I told him personally I ain't like bro I ain't like no nigga I didn't go make no post on him about no, I ain't no cloutchess nigga, no, I told him verbatim the same thing, like, hey, bro, like, certain shit you shouldn't be saying, certain shit you shouldn't be talking about, certain shit you shouldn't be doing, like, for everybody a little adult, celebrate them.

1:13:28Post them every day. I want you to post them every day, all day. Get his face tatted on you, get the biggest turn you want to get about, whatever. Quit speaking on the situation as far as people, all the other shit like other people and bro stop making just there's all I said bro quit speaking on the street shit bro cause I mean dudes like you and Kegelog have never really mentioned names commentated on that shit etc so it is kind of weird to have somebody who's like outside the camp who's going into way more detail and talking about who he thinks is at fault and who deserves you know in the street nigga My endiscreet nigga Period Knows that And can pay attention to Pay attention to Some shit Some shit you just should not Say and some shit you just should not Talk about because you might be Thinking you're helping but you're hurting You can be saying you say the wrong thing You're doing the wrong thing Lies get carried every day A motherfucker can say right now Kenny said when he leave the interview he gonna shoot Adam in the lead it's like somebody can drag this shit Adam can damn there no full effect that I didn't say that I ain't say that this didn't happen this ain't real but somewhere in the world somebody out here really believe this shit it's like real niggas don't carry on real niggas don't like spread rumors real niggas don't carry a real nigga gonna say hey Adam bro hey Kenny you it's over it's like niggas don't spread drama that's why I put that aim just towards him it's just what anybody be feeling like bro if you hear something and you don't got effect to it if you hear something you need it's just like I was just telling you bro nobody got no money on my head where is it I just don't feel like I feel like niggas just some shit that's just like you would make something you would damn there make somebody go do something that's not even going on.

1:15:38Just like, a moment can say somebody got some money on a nigga here, they go do it. Ain't no money. It was never no money. It's like, niggas just gotta stop spreading rumors, bro. And I feel like I told, bro, I told a couple of folks, they're like, bro, y 'all just be dragging shit, bro. And y 'all think y 'all helping, but you hurting, bro. Because like YouTubers, when somebody gets shot and somebody gets killed, it's like a race to make content about that. But I feel like... And they even, bro, what I be always saying about YouTubers, bruh, they the ones getting niggas killed. I genuinely feel like that YouTubers do what they do.

1:16:14They make their money. These content creators, these fucking like the little reaction people and shit, the vloggers and shit, like they do what they do but they don't know that. Bruh, I done seen shit. You ever seen shit? You see, they'll take a picture of somebody. It'll be a picture of one person, a picture of another person. They'll be doing something to each other. These people ain't never even seen each other. I get to be like, that's the clickbait. That's good. You know what I'm saying? But like, bro, that shit be foul to me, bro. It's foul. There's videos that have like a million views that it's like me and then it's you, but they Photoshop you with a gun in your hand and you're like, it's foul.

1:16:50And it's got like a million views and I see it like, what the fuck? Bro, and that shit foul to me. I ain't gonna lie. But what makes it more foul to me is that I don't even, I'm not even mad at them because these folks do what they do to make money. I be mad at the people for feeding into that shit because why are they not gonna keep doing it if y 'all feeding into it if you like what I'm feeding you I'm gonna keep feeding it to you I feel like when the rappers come in bed justifying and shit or the rappers clearing it up or the fans in the comments trying to goddamn be detectives and shit that's what they want they gonna continue to make this shit they gonna continue to make up stories make up rumors and that's why I say real niggas should not indulge in certain shit.

1:17:35I'm never gonna respond to somebody saying somebody make a YouTube video. I'm not gonna respond to a Roma or somebody saying I'm not gonna respond. I'm gonna respond to when I walk out my door, I wake up and in my sleep, I leave, I leave, I'm responding to what's in front of me. I ain't even... But sometimes you feel like you might have done something that you feel like you shouldn't have did. Because I seen a video of you driving through the Ops hood and shit with like $50 ,000,$100 ,000 and shit you sitting on top of a car. I ain't got... I ain't got a little spicy. I ain't got no Ops. It was like, man, Kenny riding through Orange Mouth with 100 ,000 on top of the hood.

1:18:07I'm like, damn. I said, A-O-G-G, all ops gotta go. And I also rode through a street, a neighborhood, an area. And I said, I don't got no ops. I said, I don't have any ops. Where they at? You're like, it's 5 p.m. I don't see nobody on the block. And I'm right here with you to this day still. I didn't say nothing wrong. I don't got no ops. But if you riding through a nigga hood And they ain't outside It's making them niggas look away Type shit to the internet So then you fueling But then you fueling the YouTubers To make those type of like If the YouTuber go take the video And say Ken and money riding through opps hood And saying nobody's outside They show a video of Ken and money riding through a hood And there's nobody outside I just told you I'm not mad that the YouTuber Didn't do nothing wrong I was riding through a neighborhood.

1:19:02I didn't say it with my ops. I just said I was riding through a neighborhood. And I said, ain't no ops outside. And you want no ops outside. That's not a rumor. That was a fact. Ain't nobody outside. Nobody looking for nobody. Nobody. Niggas not worth. Ain't all these defaults trying to do this. No, it's no ops. Where's the ops? Ain't no nigga beefing nobody. Ain't nobody beefing no niggas, bro. Niggas living they life, bro. Niggas be putting these scenarios out here like niggas going through this. gonna mind. Niggas ain't going through shit. Like, man, nigga living they life. Nigga trapped my foot going to Orange Mound.

1:19:33I'm going to Cabo, nigga. I'm going to Finland. I'm going overseas. Man, I don't give a fuck about Orange Mound, but I'm gonna go there, and I'm gonna ride, and I'm gonna do what I think. I ain't looking for no ops, because I don't got none. Where the ops? I ain't got none. As long as all ops gotta go, but where they hit, ain't none. Niggas not even on their block. Ain't no niggas. Ain't no block. Ain't shit going on. I mean, we always see the videos where they go to the op hood and then there's nobody around. We never see the video where it's like I pull up to the op hood and everybody's there and we're just gonna bang it out.

1:20:05And that's what I'm telling you. A lot of times the internet people, niggas will be putting shit making shit up and it be like but y 'all making shit sing like something like and these niggas ain't even a lot of these folks ain't got nothing going on or nothing nothing going on bro. Like she's like oh Memphis people don't even be in Memphis Memphis niggas don't even live in Memphis Memphis niggas don't live in Memphis It's definitely one of those places where it seems like anybody who gets to any level of fame or rich is just like I should probably get out Niggas that still live in Memphis You a damn fool You ain't what you think You still want to shit on the city Go to these big ass cities where everybody else look like you and got what you got going and do what you do I know nigga Know some sales for niggas Sitting in Memphis bro I ain't sitting in Memphis Fuck I'm sitting there If I go see my grandma See my folks Take care of my business Fuck with my niggas Pull up on who I wanna Pull up on Do what I do And I keep it moving bro I like that video Kick it with my niggas I ain't do nothing It was just a regular Pull up Kick it with my niggas Got money on me I'm moving I'm moving Shit We sliding We riding I'm on bed all day Could you Could you work with like A money bag yo or somebody on that camp that ain't really too much tied into shit as mutual?

1:21:29Because I don't really hear Moneybagg say too much. Like CMG and shit. I don't know. I don't know. Like, could you and Moneybagg even do a song? Or it'll be too many politics behind that. Me and Bagg have a song. We were, it's like, I was growing up, like, me and him is like, them folks, it's like, them folks niggas, them old heads to niggas, like, they ain't, like, I don't be on, bruh like it's more to memphis than what niggas think memphis is bruh it ain't it's no like the guy keep saying why i keep saying who and what i ain't joking or trying to i'm dead ass here's like to the world they look at it it's on and on that's not bruh that shit ain't shit bruh it's like bruh motherfuckers just niggas like niggas running to niggas niggas in the street niggas meet niggas everybody know everybody bruh new bruh bruh new him they got money the other day, this person want to sign me, that person want to do this.

I don't get none of this shit no play, bro. This shit ain't nothing, bro. That's not what Memphis is. Memphis is not this and this, this, that, bro. Memphis is a bunch of niggas who got, everybody got a title to this person. They're title. Everybody's friends. Everybody grew up with somebody. Somebody knows somebody. Somebody got this. Bro, it's just a bunch of fucking mess. That's why niggas get money and roll because it's too much mess.

1:23:35I mean that's what Dolph made it seem like he said like Dolph let it be known that niggas can't fuck with him he's shitting on the industry and he wasn't talking about he stood on all his things it wasn't just a group of people it's everybody to him like whoever don't fuck with him why would you not fuck with him he turned he did nigga it's the same We ain't done how I look at the white. We ain't done how Memphis is, bro. Nigga be turnt up. Nigga be doing what they do, but that niggas in Memphis ain't doing something. It ain't got nothing to do. It don't got, why I wouldn't do something with something this person, that person don't got nothing to do with.

1:24:09It's something, it's always something bigger than the other shit. The titles. It ain't got nothing to do with none of this shit. Like, this shit don't got nothing to do with nothing, bro. This shit, Jim, don't got nothing to do. Don't got a song back, bro. Like, this shit, this shit not nothing, bro. What about a push-ish-ish relationship? I fuck with shi-ish. I fuck with shi-ish. I've been fuck with shi-ish. I've been fuck with shi-ish. I've been turn, y 'all niggas. It's like, bro, like I said, Memphis is just political, bro. It's political and the outside don't make no building. It's just political, bro.

1:24:52It's a political place. I ain't gonna lie, it's a political Most cities are like that now It's just, there's not really like Huge rappers for people to like Be able to easily understand the situation You know, like there's a million Fucking gangs in LA A million artists that you're never gonna see work together The fans are always trying to decode that shit But I feel like the fans think that Memphis Is just super simple, that there's two sides And that's it, I'm sure that's not true The problem with it goes, I went back to the beginning of the interview When I told y 'all I've been trans since I was 14, 15 young, everybody in Memphis will start in their own way, bro.

1:25:27And it's just what it is. I might be this big, I might be here, but I got my little young nigga, he turned up, he whatever, he might be in tour with this person, that person is just political, bro. It's like, I'm not gonna still fuck with this person just because I'm bigger than you, so I'm gonna do what I wanna do. Fuck what you got going on. They don't work like that. I mean, there ain't no big guy out of little you. Motherfuckers just got respect and lured on different type of angles and different type of whatever. So that's why going back to like what I was saying, bro, why I wouldn't do certain shit with certain people.

1:25:59Shit, this shit was way before anything. Like, my fault, man, way before anything, bro. Like I said, I got my own reasons, bro. People know my reasons. People know their reasons. People know what it is. People know what it be, but they don't be having nothing to do with it. I ain't no, like, paper out is a record label, bro. Yeah. It's a record label. These are my brothers, my family. but it's not no gang it's not no motherfucking gang shit going on where a nigga if we go back in history a little bit by like 10 years or whatever I went through, I watched some shit and realized that the way that the beef between Dolph and Gotti or whatever and Black Youngstead all that shit, that shit was being communicated through the internet so much at that time I felt like nobody is talking like that anymore Nobody's like taking their beef and maybe young kids and shit, but not people that are that successful.

1:26:53They're not putting their beef out on the breakfast club like that week after week. Like that just feels like a distant memory at this point. Cause people have seen so many of these Ricos come down and shit.

1:27:08Who beefing? I ain't got one around. Hey man. Hey, what's the current state of Memphis scene right now? Like, who you feel like some artists that we need to tap in with that we might not be paying attention to? Right. Because we all know the two sides that we see. Outside of that. I'm not telling you, I ain't no side. I'm talking about label-wise, not even on no game. I'm just saying, like, we know CMG and we know Paper Route. Besides that, like, what other rappers in Memphis that we might not even know about or, like, any movements going on? Zotrap, like, CEO Juleson. What? Yeah. Yeah, CEO Juleson, Zotrap, like.

1:27:47Like I said, man, we fuck with My, they ain't Jizzle, but he about to fuck with They niggas, man. You think Jizzle got a run in him? You think he's about to be making some noise? Or is he up right now? Jizzle? Yeah. Jizzle in jail. He is, right? Yeah, but a run in my name from a cut-up. He turned, bro. He naturally turned, bro. That's Memphis niggas, bro. He naturally turned, man. I can't fuck with Jizzle, bro. Who would you put on your Memphis, Mount Rushmore?

For sure, we will. I don't believe that. I don't know. He just hit me with an interesting theory. He said, why do you think Gucci Mane was signing all them Memphis artists why did he sign them and why did he drop them recently and I was kind of like I don't know and he basically said Gucci Mane if he doesn't like somebody he'll sign people from their section to basically like stir up shit where they're from and he claimed that he had basically done that because he's not Gucci Mane is not a fan of certain CEOs in Memphis Gucci Gucci Ralph, Gucci, Gucci been fucked with Memphis niggas, though.

1:32:07I ain't playing with nobody's career because I didn't let nobody play. I ain't letting nobody play with mine. I ain't playing with nobody. I ain't signing no niggas just to say I got little niggas. I ain't signing no niggas just to make money off of them. When I sign somebody, I want to really help them. Like I got help. I ain't letting nobody do me like that. So I ain't letting nobody else like that. I help pay for videos. I pay for studio time. I do this, I do that, I help niggas, and I don't want nothing back from it. 100%.
