Yeah, for sure. What was it that attracted you to it? Just like, oh I need some backup. I need people to be watching my ass when I'm out here doing shit. Shit, shit we cool there. Everybody we gang banging. We talking about Atlanta, Georgia, Twins. Everybody in the gangs. Everybody's in the gang. And goddamn I'm white so I can't be a blood in Atlanta. Can't be a blood. That's like the rule? You can't be a white blooder out there?

11:33Adam22:I don't know the rule, but I know in Atlanta, your ass can't be a blood if you're white. You know what I'm saying? If you're white, you're a blood in Atlanta. Ain't my business be gone. You got something going on. I don't know what it is. You something about it. I mean, being a white gang member in general is so fascinating to people. They're so, like, that's just a never-ending source of interest to people. We got one white Hoover out here. Everybody always just got to talk about him. Love him. Yeah. I love him. I love them. I know exactly who you talking about. Yeah, I'm sure. Yeah. Yeah, shout out to Lake Twin.

12:06Oh, that is kind of your twin shit. But, okay, so did you feel like you had a selection of what hood you wanted to be from, or was it more like that's just kind of what you fell into? Yeah, mine, that shit just fell into. I mean, like I said, all my homeboys, everybody, like, and I was running other stuff in the Super Bowl, Georgia, which I like GD, bro. Everybody from GD. Especially in Georgia. At this time, bro, like, Georgia was a GD state. Georgia's the G-State. What was, I don't know, I'm talking about some shit from 10 years ago, twin. You know what I'm saying? I'm talking about some old ass shit.

12:36Like, man, it was a goddamn nothing but GD. I've never in my life, still to this day, I'm a grown-ass man, old-ass man, bro. I've never seen nobody drop a rake in Atlanta. Really? Never seen that shit. Like, we don't do that shit. Like, we don't see no shit like that. We seen that shit on YouTube. Like, that shit was the G-State, twin. Like people didn't even play with GD like that because shit, they weren't bothering people either though. You know what I'm saying? They ain't like goddamn, they just out there up Georgia and shit like that. These folk goddamn feeding homie people and goddamn putting clothes on homie people and goddamn, you know, doing little goddamn community givebacks and shit like that.

13:13Right, because I mean there's kind of like a big difference culturally between like a lot of the GDs in America versus like when you think about Chicago and like the GDs kind of just like a regular gang out there. But then there's like a whole side to the GDs that's like a real positive, life-affirming movement sort of thing, right? Man, I guess so. I don't know how much of that is just lip service and people just talking or - I just know in Georgia, them folks were giving back positive shit. That's all I know. I know them folks were giving back positive ass shit, Sha 'Li. I don't know how they do it everywhere else.

13:44From me looking out, from the outside looking at Chicago, it looked like they just on some block shit like Cali is. It's like they on some neighborhood shit, really. It was like, this is my neighborhood. And if you this is this or you're not this, you either, it's an umbrella. It's like you're either GDK or you're not talking shit. BDs and GDs are like bloods and crips out here where then like your actual neighborhood falls under that and that's like kind of more important. I'm from Georgia, bro. I ain't never, I probably met like one or two BDs in my life. They was from Chicago. Like we don't even got BDs down there.

14:13And if we do, I ain't trying to say it ain't nothing down there. I don't know. I'm from Atlanta too. I don't know about BDs. For sure. Definitely. So once you joined a gang, does that kind of like change your trajectory? Like were you doing good in school before that or you started getting in trouble then after? Nah, shit. I was always some bullshit. I was like a little badass. You know, goddamn. I paid all my classes and shit. I did all that. I did all that. I didn't graduate high school, but that wasn't because I wasn't doing my work or goddamn not going to school or no shit like that. I had moved to Memphis and shit.

14:47It was like, man, like I said, bro, my mama is a gangster, bro. So, like, sometimes be like, shit, y 'all ain't gonna be here in Georgia, buy your fucking self home that's trying to graduate high school, or your FN come to Memphis, and we gonna go live in that motherfucking hotel, and we gonna work these jobs. Okay. You know what I'm saying? Some shit like that. So she would take off and go live somewhere like Memphis? Why? Just because she had, like, other opportunities there? Where the money is at? My mama just trying to make it happen. Right. You know what I'm saying? I'm the boy, so she looking at me like, shit, you'll be like, we'll figure it out with you.

15:15Do you resent her for that, though? Like, damn, you separated me from my friends and shit. Man, hell no. No? That's like normal. I think when you make your kid move that they get mad at you. Man, we moved so many times.

15:26Adam22:Really? That much? Man, like, on the south side, we moved a lot. That's why I say when I'm a South Footing, baby, like, bro, we done lived everywhere on the south side. I'm talking about from Piedmont all the way up to fucking Red Oak. From goddamn old National. I done lived all over the city. And then when it comes, like, damn, we went to Gwinnett.

I don't know what you mean. Goddamn. He probably is. Goddamn. He just be rapping. Okay. I think I should be seeing these type shit, putting on big-ass clothes. Yeah. Type shit I'm trying to get into.

I'm like one of the biggest three out of Atlanta right now. We kind of like the voice. I believe it, yeah. I feel like you got that charisma, that personality that you can definitely start monetizing that shit. At the end of the day. We've been talking about all this GD shit the whole time for what reason, goddamn. Cause I was at GD work, not a nightmare project. We got down. I'm an advocate for me and me to have awareness.

20:51I can't damn walk. I can't control my damn leg. I find like a, you know, like them black iron fence. Is it? Got down that be outside like train stations and shit. I just follow that hoe. They said in police report, They found me a half a mile away. Got down. Shouted to follow my blood trail. They take me to the hospital and all this, but I got a broken neck. I done did all this shit, made it a half a mile away from that car with a broken neck. Holy shit. I broke my C7. Got down. I'm straight now. The only thing I just can't feel these two fingers right here. I could imagine that being unpleasant for one particular thing.

21:20Yeah. Finger banging your girl. I ain't gonna worry about that here, man. You got to do a switch? I got left hand.

21:30Adam22:Yo, but so you didn't get burnt from all the fire that was around you? I did on my damn face when I was coming out. That's crazy. I sure did. I'm fat on this side of the river. Did you get a DUI? Were they able to figure out that you were drunk? Yes. Damn. That was the first DUI I had. But I had this and shit called a diversion up there. If it was your first time ever getting one, I guess they'd be having a lot of shit going on up there in Oregon. And I did the little classes and all the shit I needed to do when they took it off my record. Wow. That's crazy. And I don't drive to this day. I still ain't never had a license in my life or a driver permit, and I can't get one yet.

21:59So all of a sudden I ain't got no car, I can't drive one. Right. Damn. So, okay, that's terrible. That's, like, traumatic. How long were you in the hospital recovering from that shit? I recovered fast. I ain't going to lie. I was in the hospital for, like, four days. I either got out on the fourth day or the fifth day and got down. When I got out, man, tell me why these bitches came and locked my ass up. Man, they came and locked me up to an internet person and everything. They came and got me like the next day. I get out the hospital, I go home. If it wasn't, it wasn't the same day. Cause it was the next day, the next day twin.

22:31They came and got me. But I was in Marion County jail for like three weeks with a broken neck. With a broken neck, right? Worst time I ever did in my life. I'm glad they had me in the cell by myself though. And they had me in the PC unit, bro. We don't got them in Atlanta. Oh shit. So got them. When I was in that shit, I'm like, damn. Why can't come outside with them? Cause it had like top floor and bottom floor. I think on my shit, they was like, my shit was like special needs. I got them on the top. It was like the PC shit. Okay. This man kind of jet. But you're by yourself, so you're not really having to interact with anybody?

22:59I mean, when they pop the doze, yeah. Okay. You know, when they pop the doze, you know, you got to go to Unifon and shit like that. Like, yeah. But they didn't give you a choice or anything? PC just because you got a broken neck, right? They don't want to have you? Yeah, yeah. Hell yeah. They put me in there, motherfucker. Okay. They had to. Shit. I mean, shit. Okay. They probably could have put me in medical. That's what I thought they were going to do. Because I'm like, I got a broken neck. I would think like if I was in Atlanta, them folks took me straight to the medical unit and just had me laying in the bed some goddamn way.

23:23Yeah. In the room. Three weeks though, no nothing to do, no TV, no books, no nothing? No, no, I had books. Okay. Hell yeah. That one thing about me, but when I was going to jail and being a dumbass and shit like that, I probably read about a library full of books, bro. Mm. That one thing about it. When I'm in chain gang, like when I'm in like Department of Corrections, like in prison, I ain't read no books unless I'm in the hole. Right. I ain't read no books because I can't. I can't it's too loud too much everything's going on yeah I mean that's kind of like life like I never read books now but as soon as I don't have my phone or don't have TV or internet I'm like god I need a book I need to order a book like I need a book but it's like when I have the phone it's just so much more immediate and there's just so much shit that's happening right now shit get to come out man everything bro I'm talking about but my phone get to going crazy I'm like damn yeah so okay you get out after that three weeks and then like you just return back to Atlanta?

So when it comes to the PTSD diagnosis, though, So that shit, is that something that kind of kept coming back to you, flashing into your memory and shit like that? Or how did that affect you? I'm going to say the only thing that I know from after that shit happened with that car wreck, Twin, I be having car anxiety.

Wow, I've never said this on the podcast, but I was dummy off the lean in like 2017, and I'm at 7-Eleven backing up, and I backed into some gay dude, like his car. And I don't even think he called the cops or anything. I don't think I ever had to deal with it.

27:30But that's the one time in the last 16 years that I hit anything with my car, and it wasn't that bad. now i backed into a pole one time too but that don't count that's just like an inanimate object yeah so it still could traumatize you though yeah now you're gonna be more careful hell yeah no when i'm aware when i was 18 i rear-ended two different cars in the same year yeah and that just like changed me as a driver so much i just paid so much more attention after that for sure because it was just very traumatizing bashing into the car from behind going super fast i don't like driving time yeah honestly now the fact that my car like if i even come close to speeding into the car in front of me my car's like beep beep beep beep i mean that that's a lifesaver like i would have rear-ended hella people if it wasn't for that fancy a car i mean the bmw i don't know it knows like the self-driving car sounds amazing i would love to get on that program at some point man i can't do a tesla but something like that yeah yeah shit whatever i don't know self-driving i I know people who drive like long distances and they just sleep in the car when the car just drives itself.

28:38Man, hell no. Isn't that insane? I ain't doing that one to him. But it's safer than you driving. Oh, shit. Hey, if it got down, mathematically proven, I'm doing it. Especially. Hey, Tesla, let me get a car. You driving at noon is one thing. You driving at four in the morning when you're kind of sleepy, falling asleep, whatever. Maybe you're under the impact of some substances. I mean, you're a way worse driver at 4 in the morning than you are at noon, you know, on average. For sure. Definitely. So, okay, was that your first time in jail or was there another occasion as well? I ain't never went to juvenile, but got down.

You still have money when you're in jail? you still got money they don't take your money oh no that shit work out everybody you got commissary man damn get that comes here man but so what you just showed up and then you just kind of rose to having that that role while you were in there like kind of running shit roll and i got that rolling street okay and i ain't gonna say i just rose up and nothing like that but i can't hey man this shit like i said having like 10 years ago anybody gonna look back on anything that i didn't did 10 and all this long time y 'all gonna see i ever be able to sell for I ain't did shit.

39:23So that way I can speak about that because I'm talking about it. But he out there telling it all. But I can say what I want to. The fans gonna go back and look at me and be like, this bitch ain't did shit since then. And his ass was in jail for everything he did. Yeah. And he not on probation. Shut up. And I don't be around people who do crimes and shit like that. Yeah. I'm fine. Try to avoid that now. Man, at all times, at all times, I'm out here by myself because... We're leaving today and entering a world of Mickey Mouse waving princess meeting and greeting. Lightsaber clashing The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror dropping Banshee flying Space Mountain launching Galaxy rewinding Galaxy rewinding Fireworks igniting World of Other Worlds For whatever you love Infinite worlds await at the most magical place on earth Walt Disney World Resort She light up Right You just try to keep your nose clean at this point That seems very valuable to me, too.

40:22I was keeping my nose clean since 2020 when I came out to Oregon. Right. I went to jail a couple times, like I said, with the wreck and shit like that. Then just like, you know, not knowing the laws and shit out there. Just a little misdemeanor shit. I ain't never really caught no feeling. But did that scare you straight when you had that car accident? Hell no. As soon as my neck brace came off a twin. Let me tell you how a shout out I am. I went right back to the same spot in the daytime and got a drink. Oh, wow.

40:46Adam22:Just to normalize it? Just to be like, listen, I'm not going to be scared. Obviously, something's wrong with me. If I did that shit, something had to be wrong with me. What's your relationship with alcohol now, though? See, I be drinking. Yeah? Like, constantly? You think you got a problem with it? I be on and off with that shit. It be like a month I don't drink, and then it be like a month I drink like two, three times out of the week. It depends on what's going on. I grab a little something. It's different between getting shit-faced and having a couple drinks, though, right? Oh, yeah, I can't get shit-faced.

41:17No? Like I said, bro, I'm one of them folks that be outside and shit. So, like, I can't be outside all goddamn wooshly and wobbly and shit like that.

41:26Adam22:Right. I mean, I don't be having shit to take and I ain't did shit to nobody. So, ain't nobody really going to try to do nothing to me. You know what I'm saying? But goddamn, you can't be out there moving out loose and shit. Right. Like, you some fine shit, dude. Walk around loose and shit. Yeah. Hell nah. Nah, I mean, you drunk as fuck. It's like, yeah, a girl probably ain't going to want to talk to you the same way, right? Unless she's drunk. Probably. which a lot of girls are drunk realistically like I used to be going to clubs and bars and shit it's like it would be awkward when I wouldn't be drinking cause all the girls are drinking and then you just feel weird like you're just you're not on the same planet as them I'm good that's why you can't be in a relationship with nobody who do drugs and you don't cause I don't do drugs you know what I'm saying I might drink a little bit and smoke a little weed no drugs hell nah no perks boy no boy this is on fire this is for years and years and years and years i will say every now and then when i'm in that land on just because i be in like a comfortable space or something like that like might be the place i might take like a half an every now and then just because i am human and you know i'm a regular guy at the end of the day right sounds amazing i'm taking e-pill forever bro i ain't took one in forever it's been years i just i was in uh well it was like three weeks ago I took one no it was New Year's Eve man I took a half of one man I was half of like two days I'm like see that why don't do shit like this yeah a lot of people I interview do it every day man hell nah I can't do no drugs that's insane that shit lame yeah I can't even imagine yeah hell nah you'd have to bring me to the hospital by like day three bro I can't do no drugs I used to do drugs I used to drugs like a motherfucker what were you bad with what was your drug of choice expo's you know we fought with that syrup in the city purse hit van got down powder got down any other like dude I say party drugs I ain't never fucked with like never heroin that's why I stopped doing drugs cause fendol came out around 2020 like 2019 2018 it was like cool because they were just putting it in like boy and shit like that but when they started putting that shit in powder and people started putting it in pills and making these little pills I was like yuck can't do drugs no more cause they got fendol now you ruined it 2017 little peep died from a fake zan and that was kind of like terrible it just felt different after that it was just like damn like this shit ain't the same because it used to feel so like zans and coke just felt like chill it just didn't really feel like that big a deal and then after that it was like oh so we could just die taking any of this shit just kind of changed the whole vibe yeah bro uh yeah yeah that's why you don't need no drug yeah they don't got him up with that shit yeah and that's why it's weird to think that one day my kid's gonna ask me about if i did drugs and i'm gonna have to say yes but i'm also gonna have to explain that the drugs then were a lot different than the way that they are now kind of like how our parents and shit yeah they're like yeah we smoked weed but it was some bullshit it wasn't the same shit it wasn't no gelato we weren't smoking sherblado um anyway okay so yeah what what so it really was the the fentanyl that kind of made you back up off the off doing drugs and shit also like that shit came out and they started putting it in the shit i was doing yeah i'm like yeah i'm done but also just living that lifestyle like if you're down to do eat pills lean pill uh you know zans whatever it's like then every day just becomes like a challenge of trying to get more drugs yeah and it's like when you don't really have money you know you're not gonna be able to do that much drugs but then as soon as you start getting money then it's like this is gonna be a problem because i can do a lot of drugs you got like a hundred dollars a day you can do more drugs you do enough drugs to kill you my drugs I mean it depends on what drugs cause obviously with like lean too lean is like you can just do it till you fall asleep and it's just gonna cost you like a thousand dollars a day or some shit crazy amounts at a certain point if you get used to it $1 ,000 drink some goddamn drink but please just to pass out and feel like shit when you wake up yeah we ain't doing that one to him don't do your up man don't do drugs um okay so uh all right so we did the the the ops with the gds question uh so yeah okay when you when you were in jail though is like do you get fully treated as as a non-white or is there any kind of tension with the the white people who are who are locked up with you uh nah i was i was a gang

Nah, I probably ate one in my sleep because we had roaches. Oh yeah, that could happen. For shit, so. I one time fell asleep at my friend's house and I woke up and his ferret was crawling up my pants. It is a ferret? It's like a big ass rat looking thing, but it's like a pet. He would let that thing just go around the house and it went straight on my pant leg. Straight on my pant leg. Terrifying. One of the worst feelings in the world.

48:29I'm most definitely on some folks' face around them motherfuckers. Somewhere on their back where they booty or something like that. I'm on one big foot. But when you did that, did it feel like it kind of closed off the world to you a little bit? That you couldn't have a regular job and shit like that? Especially you got

Y 'all talking about, I seen one dude say, oh, they don't know how to fight and shit. Because goddamn, they be having blitz and all stuff like that. See, Atlanta, we got two fighting styles that we invented ourselves. It's called Swiston, and we got the old school shuffle. So don't do that, because goddamn, just shut up, bro.

51:58Adam22:but I got big-ass lids, man. So you're saying a gangster will see another gangster in Atlanta and they'll just fight? Hell no. That's what I'm saying, yeah. We some players. But what I'm saying is, like, people be shooting each other out there, like, more than in somewhere like New York, where it's a lot harder to have a gun. Because that's why ain't nobody fine, but you best believe everybody be getting locked up for them shootings like they doing. And when you get up there, nothing good, what you got to do? Yeah. You got to fight. The vibe that we kind of throw out there is that in Atlanta, shit is up now because it used to be that dudes were like more open about their street activities and the music and stuff.

52:31And now everybody is terrified of getting a Rico or whatever because it's happened to so many of the big news. That's what I'm trying to tell you. I'm a civilian. I'm putting up this fire. Everybody in Atlanta fire. Shout out to Huncho, too. dude, Huncho just shot me out in the album. Did he really? I got a new album, just do Huncho shit. What'd he say? What'd he say? He said on fire.

Belly Gang Infamy Hold on I got a little bit more Super 8 Fred MK going up Shouty YKDZ RW5 Top Casket Free U Twin Social Money The Cold Poverty Rick Yeah That what going on in Atlanta right now Atlanta got so much shit going on Twin Can't nobody And this ain't mainstream shit I'm talking about too much I mean outside of like O-Line Playboy Cardi Huncho and shit Yeah a couple of them Baby Drill and shit like that Everybody up there Ain't nobody f***ing with Atlanta bro Really? at all bro okay but let me tell you what the rest of the country at least sometimes says about atlanta is that basically shit got kind of slowed down because like like atlanta was running hip-hop in america to an extent that we like almost never seen before for years and years during the era of future and migos and all this shit being like the biggest shit thug obviously and then you know now it feels like some of those stars are not shining as bright as they were and as a result though like the new crop of rappers are not necessarily like blowing up in the same way.

54:43Adam22:You feel like there's any truth to that? Man the mainstream in Atlanta right now is the people who not mainstream. On 5 we talking about like that and they know exactly what I'm talking about. Man the city in Atlanta so big, that's why I'm big. I got Atlanta. On 5 my city love me so much bro so when When it comes to that Atlanta shit twin, bro, we so big and just like, you got the with that twin. We still the biggest shit. Who bigger than them right now? Yeah, I mean. You're going to have to goddamn do something to catch up, Jack. What we doing? I almost feel like no city in America is really like the king city right now.

We going through shit right now. But okay, when I was in Atlanta last time with Woody and Brick Baby, we were doing shit out there. Yeah, I was Woody. Yeah. I remember people telling me, like, we go to Magic City. It's cool. But then people are telling me, like, you got to understand, this shit used to be so crazy. And now it's like dudes still have, like, the memory of what it was like at that time, but the city ain't really got as many dudes who are, like, coming out the trenches that are just having millions of dollars as a result of the music in the same way that they maybe were 10, 15 years ago.

56:00You think that's true? It might be something to it. I'm coming out of Atlanta I ain't got no goddamn money I mean I don't rap but shit I got millions and millions of you I ain't got millions though but that's the thing with social media is you can be huge on social media and not really making that much money whereas if you're huge as a rapper you're a multi-millionaire I can't be a rapper though cause that shit gonna fuck up the million men to help wearing the shit I got going on really? I'm gonna talk about some gangster shit and I be telling these folks not to be gangster every goddamn day that's what everybody does Did 21 say, like, hey, we got to tell these kids to stop killing each other and then you get in the booth and you rap about killing people?

56:36I love the shit out of the 21. I'm just saying, you know. I can't do that, though. I'm not a rapper. He a rapper. Yeah, yeah. So he can, you know what I'm saying? He was a rapper. It would be like, bro, you took the mental health awareness shit to boost your rap career. They going to be like, man, beat it, man. Right. Tear out, skate, skadaddle, slide, sir. I mean, but 21 had already, like, made it before he even started to realize that violence was bad. because when he came in the game, it was just, let's shoot each other. Let's just do that.

57:03Adam22:Ten years ago, just like me. I was a GD-Worch nightmare ten years ago. Today, man, them GDs will roll my ass through night if I speak bad on them folks, man. Shit get it. I ain't just playing GD. Anybody could roll me tonight. But you think Atlanta's too divided. You talking about Ola Runt, Playboy Cardi, but these are people that... And this shit coming together. Do you think that's happening now? This shit coming together, bro. This shit coming together. Only because it got I ain't gonna say only because of anything, but I know for a fact, bro, this fire, twin.

But then, I mean, you know, obviously the Ricos come down. People end up going to jail. People come out with that. Were you shocked to see them squashing it and choosing to move past that whole beef? Hell no. I wasn't shocked. I was happy as hell. I seen that shit right there. I said yes. I felt like I had something to do with that shit.

I'm like, doing, you know I can't fucking rap, bro. Oh, shit. I'm doing like that, bro. Wait, being on streams with people and shit, does that make you want to stream? Hell yeah. I done made a little tweet. I be on TikTok like a month. I was saying that you - I be on that shit every day. I'm a TikToker for real. What's the most money you ever made in a month on TikTok? A month? I don't know, but I feel like my biggest payout in the week was like$1 ,900.

1:00:50That's pretty good. Like a week. I ain't really calculate the money. I ain't going to lie. I probably might have hit. I don't know. I might have hit the money. But are you putting hours in there? Because I've seen you battling people and shit. You've got to be on there live for hours. I'm in the building between. You've got to put the time in, bro. It's like a job. Yeah. It's like a job. And then I get engagement. I might not have super hella views and no shit like that. That one I'm going to go live on Instagram and no shit like that. But I can have 100 views, which is hella big, y 'all. And be having all kind of money on coming through that bitch.

1:01:19I can have 50 views, 10 views. it be goddamn man coming in that motherfucker yeah one time i was working out on the exercise bike and i went on tick tock live for like a half hour and by the end of it i had made like 12 books and i was kind of like i could get used to that that's not so bad a lot of rappers that get on there they just be like smoking and listening to their music so like you can't smoke on tick tock though right right now hell no they did have like some little you could do like some settings but now that hell no you can put the settings on that man them folks finish Yeah, that's what I've always been warned.

1:01:53It's like nothing sexually suggestive at all. If you're a girl, you got to cover up your titties and everything. You can't be smoking weed. You can't be having bottles of alcohol. You can't really swear too much. You definitely can't threaten anybody. No, you can't do none of that shit. Whereas Instagram in comparison is a lot more loose. You can smoke blunts all day on Instagram. Instagram and hood. TikTok like real clean. I think that's why TikTok folk with me. TikTok's communist China. I'm kind of a little rough around the edges. You feel me? So when they come to TikTok, they folk with me. They're like, yeah, we ain't got this shit over here.

1:02:22But I know so many dudes who are hood dudes who started a TikTok, and the first thing they do is post one smoking a big-ass blunt, and I'm just like, nah, that's not going to work. Nah, they ain't going to get it, Twain. Yeah. They ain't going to get it. I don't be out there doing all that. I be on that bitch drinking coffee. I do coffee time every morning on TikTok. Nice. Literally, sometime in between 7 a.m. or 9 a.m. Since I've been out this bitch, it ain't been coffee, though. This shit been scraped. Man, Zai for coffee. Fuck it. I'm waking up out there. Zai. You love weed? Yeah. You been smoking forever?

1:02:53No breaks? No, hey, I take other breaks. Other breaks. When I was staying out here on the West Coast, I wasn't smoking for like a year. Really? Yeah, I'm bad. I don't know. And I feel my body doing that shit too where I'm finna end up stop smoking again. Yeah. Yeah. This is the longest break I ever had, like three months. Yeah? Yeah. I be f***ing this time.

Oh, you for sure? I was kicking it at the Trap Museum with Young Dro for many hours one day. Yeah. And I pointed out, I'm like, man, why is there so many bad girls out here? Like, so many fly chicks. and he said it's because there's like man colleges out here so it's like you got a lot of girls that are like in their early 20s just looking good as f*** walking around I mean yeah but it's just hella people in Atlanta everybody want to be in Atlanta you gotta think about Atlanta the black Hollywood you know what I'm saying Atlanta the black Melker you know what I'm saying like if you is a black person I'm white I don't know if I'm supposed to be speaking on it or not I'm from Atlanta so I'm gonna tell you but that's what they call it you need to come on down there to me I'm fat I took my baby mama that's from Oregon down there to me she's black She was like, man, now I got down.

So, shit, when I posted that shit, he just posted that hoe. That my dog.

1:10:07I'm trying to tell you. You got to give it to Drake, Kendrick. But as far as the current generation, I mean, it's kind of them two. I don't know what is going on about the big ass five twin. The one I'm trying to tell you, but this shit bigger than rap twin. But he says five two and he means that as a blood thing, right? I don't know about all that, bro. I just know they got down five is what I'm talking about with they got down with these civilians. throwing up this fire, this movement, this Faith in Your Vision every day.

I'm fat, you fat, we fat, everybody fat, she fat, he fat, be fat. Get eight. No, I'm just playing, I'm just playing. And five is the best number. Man, I'm trying to tell you, Twinn, but now you got to think about it. Ever since young boy finally like shook his shit, love the shit out of YB.

1:11:08I be with like, he biggest fan right now, my girl, Icy Guwak. He just reposted her, he stay reposted her, but he just reposted her, I be with her in the city. We putting this five shit together, bro, I'm trying to tell you all the civilian fives, we trying to, we getting lit now. Showing y 'all that this five shit is just some music shit, Bro, this shit just some movement shit, man. It's universal. Yeah, it's universal. It's not division. Everybody's doing it. Even the people who y 'all said that were beefing with each other and shit. The whole everybody is doing it, Twain. Right. Do you feel like - It is facts.

1:11:40Go look it up. Look. Go back in the past three months. Play. Is Atlanta Drill the future or was that a failed experiment? Atlanta Drill just got damn Atlanta Drill, Twain. It's just they own little shit, bro. Mm-hmm. You know what I'm saying? that they own shit, that what they got going on. I don't really talk about that shit too much. Is the content too aggressive for you, too violent? Hell yeah, that shit going on, Twain. That shit get it coming out, bro. That's why I ain't really linked up with too many rappers like that when they come to me doing content and stuff, because at the end of the day, yeah, we is putting the city back together.

1:12:14But you with Baby Drill, you mentioned that one. Yeah. There's a few others out there. I fuck with a whole lot too. Yeah. I fuck with everybody. See, I'm the guy that's not in the gang. you know what I'm saying I'm a guy that's not from somewhere I ain't did shit to nobody so it's like you can't say oh you can't fuck with them because you fuck with them or no shit like that I'm not that guy twin I'm not that one twin right I'm just like I'm trying to tell y 'all bro this city coming together bro all that beef shit that y 'all looking at say oh everybody against each other no they're not they're coming together twin all this shit coming together and you got civilian telling you this shit twin right this shit coming out bro I'm telling you yeah you think that's the the The future of Atlanta, though, is way more unity.

1:12:52All the beef shit's going to be out the window. Yes. I mean, that would be great. That would be very good. Superior to the alternative, for sure. Yeah, it's got to happen. Because if it don't happen, get what? They're going to jail. Or they're going to hell. Definitely. One or the other, twin. So are people just reaching out and sharing their stories about mental health awareness to you and stuff? What kind of stuff have you heard?

1:13:11Adam22:I done had them at the Discord because of that shit. Oh, really? I got over like 500-something people in the Discord right now. But they being that motherfucker talking to each other. And they all just got mental health issues? Well, my discourse, I'll throw it all to them. You'll get up in my shit, you'll be like, yeah. You need some muds. I got muds, though. But it's like, yeah, you got down. Hell yeah, but I said day one. June 1st last year, but I said day one. Still to this day, every day, somebody hit me up every day about got down. Either they just, they not asking me for, like, no advice or, like, no shit like that.

1:13:41But they just telling me some shit they been through, like, really trauma dumping on me. I'm fine. That shit been going on for a while. that's why I don't really be responding too much or too much like that. And that's why I made a discord too because that shit get overwhelming for me too because shit, bro, I'm just like, yo, I'm diagnosed and medicated. I be doing, every day I go through the same shit. I got to live in my truth every day. I got to live my own life, put my pants on every day. Just like, yo, bro, I just got down, make it look easy because I am diagnosed first and medicated. Definitely.

1:14:10So, okay, one of the biggest conversations about Atlanta has been the whole streets is dead conversation. You think the streets are dead? Do you think that we need a new relationship with the streets? What's your opinion on all that? Man, I fuck with that shit. I just, what I feel like it was, he did it the right way. He just worded it wrong. And you know how these folks is. They gonna clip God's ass down. They gonna be like, nah, you said this. Just like with the GDW worst nightmare on five shit. They'll be like, nah, you said this. Goddamn. I feel like it's fuck the street mentality. That's kinda like what I been pushing for these 255 days to they twin, like the street shit is over with when it comes to that mentality, bro.

1:14:52Like we grown, even if we ain't grown, if y 'all growing men or growing women and shit, bro. Like, bro, that shit over with, that shit not cool, twin. That shit not the way, like gang bangin', selling drugs, doing anything illegal, twin. Like free-free, some shit that are like, sell your life away, twin. But somebody's gotta sell drugs, right? As long as people are gonna be doing them. somebody's gonna make some money off it.

1:15:13Adam22:I advise you not to. Me too. I advise you not to. For the record, I don't think... I think wasting your life doing drugs is a damn tragedy. Yeah, man, don't do drugs, man. That shit got down... People be having phases. I get it. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Some people be relapsing a little shit like that. It'll be alright to me if you got down one day at a time, man. Try to stay off that shit if you can, bro. I mean, the thing that 21 did by making that statement, though, is that he left it open ended enough that you could kind of interpret it however you want because you could take the streets is dead like I think the positive version of that is like let's stop killing each other let's stop normalizing the idea that if you have problems with somebody that you got to basically kill them when you see them that I think is the version of that that we really need in the culture as a whole exactly he ain't do nothing wrong bro you just got default they got them just like me and just like 21 the same type people that just like 21 just like like, feeling some type of way.

1:16:12Cause like, damn, twin, you really got to think about it. You know what I'm saying? Like, they not wrong. But like, I just feel like he was trying to say that street mentality, bro. He wasn't trying to say like, y 'all, like, come on now, twin. Like, these folks, this shit big business, man. But I feel like part of the problem was, is that he was having that conversation at the same time that the conversation about Gunna was happening. And so people interpreted it as snitching's eye. Let's just accept it.

1:16:37Adam22:Man, Gunna ain't snitch, bro. I also am forgiving of gunning in that situation I feel like that shit was an allocution anything that he did say just like everybody else who took that same goddamn plea it could not be used against anybody else in that and his shit even on top of that he ain't make no statement to nobody on top of that can we please stop the gunning hate in Atlanta well it ain't really in Atlanta it's people outside of Atlanta we love gunning in Atlanta I'm banging that shit every day and if y 'all do feel like he told I don't give a damn you know right care about that telling shit we grown as hell and you don't need to be doing shit anyway to get your ass told on uh-huh stop that shit if you don't want nobody to tell them you know what is the line of somebody telling that could get them excommunicated from your circle or society because there's got to be a line right i don't have no friends that do crimes so i can't speak on that shit i can't say like oh you did this you can't got down you know what I'm saying like that shit ain't got nothing to do with me like I'm out of that bracket I'm in the same bracket you and twin we don't be doing shit we just around yeah you know what I'm saying we might be mixed into what be going on we might know what going on because we what going on you know what I'm saying yeah we what going on you know what I'm saying yeah but I mean there's definitely a line though because it's like you know even if you're not fully take apart in a big old drug conspiracy or whatever.

1:18:04There's still little things that normal people are doing on a day-to-day basis that can get them locked up. Don't do shit around me is what I would have to tell on you. Don't do shit around me. If I'm telling you I'm a civilian, I'm pushing this positive ass shit, I don't do nothing. My friends don't do nothing. So if you come around me or my friends and you do some shit and you put us into a position to where like, nah, I got to go to jail or go to prison because you did and you just put this into that shit, hey man don't put me in that position. I'm an old-ass white man civilian with a cell phone and uh, you get what?

1:18:34I ain't in no game. I'm not in the street, I don't do street shit, so get what? Man, just don't put me in that position cause yo heck gonna go to jail. Yeah. You shouldn't be doing shit anyway, grown-ass man out here doing crimes and shit. Yeah. Grown-ass man, you grown to hell. Yeah. And then, but you gonna say, oh dawg, but you told all me though. Man, yeah. You shouldn't have did shit around me. I ain't do shit. You didn't take your child like the gangster you spoke. You out here doing all that gangster shit. Yeah, all the gangsters, I want y 'all to do some gangster shit and take y 'all out of jail.

1:19:05Because that's where all the gangsters at. Get y 'all ass up out the street. So folks like me and Adam, we can just kick it and spread love and positivity. Well, I'm spreading love and positivity.

1:19:12Adam22:I'm also spreading love and positivity. And the five. And the five. I'm going to share with the five. Free Crip Man, you about to be home soon. Yeah, man. We're banging fives everywhere. I'm finna come back out of him. As soon as he get out. That was a good idea. They would love to see y 'all together. We could definitely make that happen. Okay. So what was it like during that time period? I imagine it was probably kind of traumatic for somebody like you when they were dropping the clips of Thug on the phone every day in a deliberate attempt to assassinate his character and try to make him into a snitch, a chatty patty, all this other shit.

1:19:49I know you were having a hard time sleep because you knew you were going to wake up every day and have to hear a new Thug call, right? Bro, that's damn shit. Everybody who be in jail, if you somebody who be jailing and you be in jail, bro, as soon as one of your partners don't send you no goddamn buddy, oh, your book, sees a bitch. Yeah. On fire. You like, man, I done butt my gun for buddy. Why the fuck he ain't did this for me? I got down. I done did this for buddy. Why the fuck he ain't do this? It's because you in jail. Right. You in the jail by yourself. I ain't gonna lie. Them jail cops, I was doing shit like that in jail, man.

1:20:21Shout it, man. Fuck Devo, man. He's like, goddamn, ain't put no money on my book. The whole time he ain't did shit wrong, shit, I went to jail. I mean, that bitch like, man, fuck body, man. But I mean, that bitch ain't put no money on my book, man. That shit, that shit. Like, I talked about all my partners, 200, talked bad about his ass, goddamn. Hell yeah, talked bad about my baby mama, girlfriend, whoever I can get on the phone. But you gotta think about we in jail, but we ain't got shit out of the dude anyway, twin. We ain't got shit but to think and look at the wall and think about what the hell.

1:20:52and then your mind the biggest, but that's your work enemy. So you in them just like, damn, you gotta think about Thug, who he is. To be boxed into a box like that and it's just you in your mind. Imagine being Thug and it's just you in your mind in a box, all this shit you done seen, touched, been through, all the people you know, all the shit that got down, all the people you done did shit for, all the shit people done did for you, all the places you done seen, like, bro. And then now your ass ain't in a box, bro. that shit a hell yeah talking crazy but that shit a that shit a hell yeah mental health yeah because really like none of the stuff that he said really seems that surprising when you really think about it like oh he didn't get a verse back fast enough from dirk so he's mad he's annoyed that dirk didn't send him the verse fast enough if you're dirk you probably already could have assumed that he was saying something like that if you were in fact not giving him a verse fast enough he in jail so it's like he can't do nothing but say something yeah and he can't go off of what he can't do nothing but what somebody say.

1:21:51So if somebody says something, then he gonna go off of that. Your girl is the one person that you can confide in, typically, for a lot of guys, you know? Yeah, they were bad at hell leaking on Carl. They leak my jail, Carl. They gonna be like, yeah, but all y 'all ass in Atlanta like that, y 'all ass get locked up just for like the world against you. Man, y 'all ass get locked up anyway, you gonna feel like the world against y 'all ass. Yeah. Yeah. Nah, that was a crazy time period, though. That was just every day. And it felt like it was gonna be so devastating but then I feel like the world just moved on yeah cause we love Thug in Atlanta but also Thug been real quiet for a couple months too if you think about it I don't know I be seeing his ass outside with them big ass clothes on and shit yeah you gotta think about it there's just a lot going on right now too I mean it is crazy when you think about that Atlanta's reputation is like a super street urban hub but then like young Thug as much as he's a legend famous for kind of rocking a dress comes back does a GQ interview he's got a weird chain mail mask on that shit was so hard you got Cardi he's like you know probably the most popular rapper out of Atlanta but he'd be painting his nails he'd be wearing crazy ass clothes that like realistically most dudes in the streets don't know what the f*** he's rocking it's kind of wild that like a lot of the biggest names out of Atlanta are also the ones who are the most experimental when it comes to sort of androgynous clothing and everything like that man we be putting this shit on we don't hey man i we don't be having a hard time putting this shit on even though i'm just a regular guy in Atlanta man i'm telling you man i'm having this shit on my body right now they probably want a hundred sleeve for this motherfucker yeah would you get styled by cardi if he was like i'm gonna put you in this rick ellens and these crazy boots this tall and you know paying your nails hey you don't know what to say.

1:23:41Hell yeah, he can style me. I don't know if I could go nails on him because I ain't got down. I just can't do that. He earned that. He earned the ability to be there. Everybody was like, why beat everybody? They can do that shit. That shit fires hell. I can't do that. You know what I watched last night? I watched Michael Jackson's Super Bowl performance and Prince's Super Bowl performance. We never judged Prince or Michael Jackson like the way we judge everybody else we know. Shit, that ass be lit. If you're a musical genius, I'll turn the other cheek on your strange fashion ideas. You put me in them big ass shoes, them big ass pants.

1:24:16Yeah. I get it. Doing a dance in them big ass pants, man. Because he styled Ack when they met up at a show and you got to see academics wearing a Cardi inspired outfit at one point. But he had them big ass pants, huh? Yeah, he look kind of crazy.

1:24:30Adam22:I love them big ass clothes. Like you got on your uncle clothes or some shit. I'm fat. but also it was still like it's still like black pants and a black hoodie of some sort it's just like a weird hoodie weird pants you know it's not really all you gotta do nowadays you just go black on black that shit gonna go crazy yeah yeah because of carter you know carter done went crazy with that shit don't fold like but all you gotta do is go black on black on everything and can't nobody say shit tell you about it boy and do this i was pulling up to rolling loud and uh yay was headlining Kanye West Kanye West yeah and I'm seeing the line of kids to get into it and so many of them are wearing all black you know like that's just like it's own little subset of fashion it's just like a thing it's easy too I've been wearing all black for a large percentage of my life but I don't be wearing the like super fashion looking shit I just be wearing poverty rich nowadays yeah who owns that brand shit my boy Casio Shout out Casio.

1:25:30Adam22:Shout out Casio, man. Love you, Twin. Good keyboards, too. Okay, so what's your Atlanta rap Mount Rushmore? This is a Remo question. He always want to ask this. Speaking of Remo, hey! Where Remo at? Yeah. Remo! Twin, when I went viral for my amendment to help awareness shit, Twin. Did he post it? Twin, he posted it and he re-rocked my whole shit. What'd he say? He put like a caption up there, like when you put the words on the video type shit, he captioned with some shit like a man said, we need to cancel Pride Month and Pride Month don't need to be here no more and it should be Men's Mental Health Awareness Month.

1:26:04And I say, I didn't say that. It's not what I said,

1:26:08Adam22:but tie it to you, brother. Yeah, some promo, some promo. When you say Mount Rushmore, you mean like the greatest, the best ever. Top four of all time. God damn, Andre 3000. Ooh. Can I just say Outkast so I can put Big Boy and Andre together? Outkast for shit show. God damn, bro. It's gonna be so hard, bro. Gotta be Gucci. But do you give it to Gucci or does Alabama get to own Gucci? Man, Alabama don't get no damn Gucci. Gucci friends, I don't see. What the fuck you talking about? Gucci ain't from no Alabama. You know what I'm trying to say 27 from the UK? Me from. The east side of Atlanta, bro.

1:26:47That's a technicality. Beat it. If that the case, I'm from Wichita, 5th, Texas. I was born in Wichita, 5th, Texas in 1992. I went to Atlanta in 1993.

1:26:55Adam22:So that means I'm from Wichita, 5th, Texas. Well I don't really want to be from New Hampshire I was there till I was like 19 I don't really want to I don't feel that close to it We got OutKad We gonna put Gucci on that motherfucker Just cause that Gucci And bruh man I'ma get Future There you go You wanna put Tip in there You wanna put Jeezy in there But if it's only four It's only four It's hard for me to do a Mount Rushmore You see I just pulled out the list That's a lot of f***ing names to me. Yeah, that was easy. Like, bro. You know what I'm saying? Like, bro, it's hard to put a Mount Rushmore because it's just so much coming out of that city, Twins.

1:27:34From back then, now. And then, who the hell am I to say who the bad coming out of Atlanta? You feel me?

1:27:40Adam22:Yeah. I'm fat. Damn. You ever think there's going to be a great white rapper coming out of Atlanta? I don't know, goddamn. If Lil' Strike ad, goddamn, stop saying the N-word in his music. Lil' Strike? Yeah, Lil' Strike, goddamn. He don't even be rapping, though. His ad be bushing. Oh, okay. I hope his ad see this shit. Damn. I don't even know about him. I gotta check it out. Yeah, he got that. He just be chilling. You said the N-word? Yeah, no. Probably like off camera. I got down like not on no songs or no shit like that. But I probably wouldn't say it off camera. I got down. I don't know. I don't see me saying that shit, though.

1:28:14I mean, you probably grew up kind of saying it. I probably ended up saying it, but I just don't see me saying that shit. Yeah. I feel like. It's rare if I say that, man. Hey, I'm very well spoken. I'm a linguist, man.

1:28:28I mean a million white people that I know have said it, like grew up saying it and then at some point once they start getting attention they gotta quit. Yeah shit, as soon as I made a rap song they was like, yup you cannot say that in that song Twin. Yeah. Fuck what you say out here on the block. Yo, I can not say that.

Twin, a bitch can't even breathe on me. A bitch can't even lean.

1:30:09I ain't going to say I ain't been trying, but like I'm older now, twin, so I've been trying to date to marry. And as soon as a bitch do some shit or say some shit that I don't like, Like, man, I might tell you. And if you do it again, yeah, great. And I might not tell you. And they don't talk to you no more. Really? I'm fine, bro. I ain't got that much time in my life. And like I said, I'm still trying to figure out who I'm going to be when I grow up. So, like, is you going to judge me for standing outside this store when you pull up? You not coming to no life. If a bitch pulled up on me out here in California right now, we ain't in no fashion.

1:30:39I tell you that. You probably going to judge me. You probably going to look at me like, what the hell you doing over here? What the hell is it? I'm a work in progress I gotta be posted up at this trap spot I don't be at no trap spot well you know metaphorically speaking you know we're in battle hell our relationship though is all about like building like you know if you if the girl does something you don't like you gotta talk about it but then there's like certain things and if they do it again yeah it's great but it's also if you are doing shit that I really can't f*** with the first time we hang out the standard is so much higher whereas like maybe we're kicking it for three months and then you do something I don't like well maybe we can like correct that behavior because I already got some amount of trust built up with you yeah for sure but they gotta be willing to correct that behavior to them they might be saying if they do that shit again hey baby yeah I know a lot of girls gonna see this shit and be like

1:31:34Adam22:on fire they gonna be like man he a bitch there's just a lot of unforgivable shit too listen if we're dating and you take some shit to the internet we're done forever If you take to your story and start complaining about me, it's just like, I can never trust you again. Yeah, see, I ain't never went through that. I ain't trying to be content. I done had one of my baby mamas go to Facebook, though. Yeah. And got down and be like, I'm talking about a boy. I said, ooh, bitch, you bad at here for doing that. See, I say that, but I feel like that is so the norm. That's the norm. That's what girls do reflexively at this point.

1:32:09Wait, oh, yeah. How many baby mamas you got? I got 50 baby mamas, man. 50? I got 50. I got baby mama in every state. How many states? We got 50. I got baby mama in every state.

Shit shout out there too Yeah, he's a goat. How many babies does Future have? But at the same time, I feel like we shouldn't be glorifying people, you know, creating broken families. That's why I've been single so long, because you got to think about it, I got all these babies, right?

1:33:25So, like, I've been dating to marry, twin. I'm so serious. I've been big on that dating to marry shit, so I can't give out another kid. Yeah. We got to be married, twin. We got to be locked in.

1:38:13Adam22:Man. Hell nah. Nah, you've been celibate for three years. That includes top? Bro, yeah. Damn. This shit got damn good to come out, man. I need some fine shit to push up, man. You really are a monk. I didn't even have just took my battle on shit like that. You a monk. Yeah, yeah. I'm trying, bro. If I had fine shit in my life right now, don't be distracting me to me. I love hard, bro. I got 50, baby mama, bro. Come on, bro. I'm finna slam that. I'm starting to feel like you're not exaggerating. I'm finna drop in that shit. What? 51. Wait, how old are you? I'm 33. 33. So you've got 50 baby mamas from the age of whatever, teenage years to like 30.

1:38:50Adam22:Mm-hmm. 50 baby. I did like 60, 70 years. It's kind of hard to wrap it up. I'm locked up all together. So that makes it even worse. That's like, it means in like 10 years you have 50 kids. I'm really like 25 or 26 because the bros down the road and shit, free all y 'all, top casket, free all y 'all, man. Got down, the bro down the road say the time that you did locked up, it don't count to your free world time on your age. I'm 33, I need about 6 or 7, so I'm really about 26. 27. That's why I look young, these whole thing, I'm some fine shit. These whole thing, I'm 25. I'm like, yeah, baby, you tripping.

1:39:22Yeah, I mean, if you do jail right, it won't age you so much, right? Jail right is crazy. Yeah, you do jail right. I mean, if you find peace, you don't have the sun beating down on your Face all day. You know, that's good. You're not partying. You're not outside all day, yo. Probably doing some heroin or something in there.

1:39:38Adam22:Not you, but, you know. Clean drugs. If I'm locked up, I'm smoking cigarettes. Where does cigarettes say? Oh, yeah? That's all I want. But you don't smoke cigarettes on the outside? Hell, yeah. Oh, okay. I just smoked a cigarette in there, bitch. Oh, yeah. I saw that, yeah. Cigarette time. What brand? Oh, fine. Newport Short in the box. I don't want no long cigarette. I don't want no Southpac. It need to be the short one in the box. I'll smoke any cigarette, though. Like if I ain't got nothing, I'd be like 200 million cigarettes. I'm going to smoke that bit. I was on that time for so long. Yeah, I'm going to smoke.

1:40:05But I feel like I'm done. I need to stop smoking too. But that also going to come into where I dated and married. I will put that in my, so for the ladies who don't like guys who smoke cigarettes, if we get married, I'll start smoking that shit. But you know, I'm old. I can adjust. I can make adjustments. If you're in a relationship with a girl, you want her to be a weed smoker too or you prefer her to be on the street in there? It don't matter. You know, if you smoke weed and I smoke weed, either I'm not going to smoke that much because I'm just going to hit your shit sometime or you're going to be smoking by yourself.

1:40:38Like, I roll your shit up for you, but I don't really smoke with people, bro. Like, when I smoke, I put my shit out a couple times. Yeah. It don't take a lot for me to get high. Yeah. I feel like if you have a girl who smokes and you live together, you're in a relationship, you're never going to stop smoking because you're going to just do it together. You're going to do it until you die. Maybe. That's why it was easy for me to stop because my girl don't smoke. Girl don't smoke. I just gotta like, you know. Bro, these folks in my comments love your girl. Yeah? That's all they were talking about when I was coming over here.

1:41:04Adam22:I guarantee they were saying, are you gonna fuck his wife? Bro, oh, well, are he? That's all they were saying, Twitter. I'm like, y 'all freaky as hell in the comments. Like, bro, leave that man's wife alone, man. Anything about me, though, it's always like you should fuck his wife. I'm like, bro, y 'all freaky as hell, man. You let your girl shoot with a couple of male porn stars all of a sudden. Yeah, they bad hell for that, man. They think she for everybody. Hell no. They fucking business, bro. She under lock and key.

I'm definitely going to come out there soon. We got to lock in. Just let me know like a month in advance or two weeks. Give me two weeks. All right, for sure. Really a week if you like some last minute shit. Yeah. I got to get right. Like I told you, bro, I'm a block hugger. I be a block hugger. It's crazy. I'm a regular guy, bro. I be catching Ubers and shit. I ain't got no car, man. I ain't got no money. Hell. My bills paid. Don't get me wrong, though.

1:42:02Adam22:Yeah. Like, I say I'm borderline home to cut borderline, but my bills ain't backed up, and I pay all my shit. That's another reason I ain't got a girlfriend either, because a lot of people in survival mode, and I'm not, but I'm borderline in survival mode. You feel me? So it's like, I ain't trying to bring nobody into my shit, and you goddamn thing. I'm finna try to help you take care of you, too. I'm still trying to figure this shit out myself.
