all right here we go kid from kin play aka christopher reed welcome back to vlad tv kabul black third appearance it is my favorite appearance that's right i'm doing something right there you go there you go what's good bro well let's go ahead and just start with a couple of things that are sort of timely and i think in terms of you the most prominent thing is the salt and pepper biopic yeah now is it biopic or biopic i don't know we're arguing about this yeah beforehand i said biopic you said buy a fake potato potato please yeah use your comments which one is it which one is it right now before we get into this uh you and salt and pepper actually go way back crazy way back crazy way back before we were famous before they were before any yeah obviously they got they were famous first but it was before any of us uh were famous right we we knew each other we worked together at sears yeah we worked together at a sears call center as as depicted in the movie um and you know we all knew each other you know herbie was dating um cheryl salt um and you know we all used to hang out and and you know it was all this was prior to um to them working with herbie and making records and stuff like that and then then our turn and whatnot but yeah we those those are our sisters they helped us out uh so much back in the days but it all just started out we were just kicking it like yo that's my home girl you never tried to holler no no no you had to think about it for a second no no no i mean no nah it wasn't i mean like we got introduced to them like kind of like yo this this is this is herbie's girl you know that's all that's herby's girl you know and sandy was you know she was just like sandy me miss sandy and me we connected like on the jamaican tip you know her family's jamaican my family's jamaican you know and it was like it was more brother sister stuff than anything okay and really and just and just cool like that you know what was it like seeing these two girls that you're working at a call center with suddenly become the biggest female rappers ever with the biggest female song ever would push it mm-hmm you know it was it was look while you're going through it you know while we're living you don't really realize it you know what i'm saying we're you know we got a front row seat to all of it um but it's something it was really kind of weird when i watched the movie when you see it all laid out like that and you just realize like wow like and and there was a couple of times during the the movie i was watching it with my girl instead and a couple of times i actually got emotional like i just there was just things i remembered and i was just like wow man so i like turned to the side and she was like [ __ ] are you crying i'm like it's the incense what what made you cry in the movie it was a couple of it was a couple of moments um i remember one of them was i it was it was it was i think it was a scene where herbie was trying to to explain something to to s to to assault you know like this is how you need to do it and that and i remember that same conversation like he the thing about herbie doesn't get the credit that he deserves like he taught us everything he was the one with the vision we didn't have we didn't have the vision we're all goofing off i'm in school plays working cheryl and sandy are in school and don't really give a [ __ ] you know what i mean everybody's kind of aimless he had the vision and he he he gave us the vision he told us his vision and and we bought it and i just remember some of those conversations uh and it just hit me and and i'm just like can you [ __ ] believe it like we're all famous all of us were all [ __ ] famous because of herbie he made us famous he helped make us famous i wouldn't be famous otherwise i might be successful you know i was supposed i was going to school i was supposed to be a lawyer my father thought i was going to be a lawyer i started doing this hip-hop he's like what is this jungle music i'm like holy [ __ ] you know what i'm saying old school jamaican he didn't know nothing about that he's like you just yoga used to call it yoga yoga music this yoga yoga music i'm like yoga yoga where you get that from you know what i'm saying so my you know everybody's destiny was going elsewhere he got us all in line and and so you know there were moments just you know just i was just like damn man like and he saw it he saw it before all of us um you know he taught me how to write songs he taught me how to produce songs he you know he taught me what not to do you know not everything he not every movie made was was you know the greatest move um but um and he made us earn everything we got and i'll say this when i have my own groups that i managed i remember saying because herbie was really hard on us you know what i mean he never he never gave you nothing that that he felt you didn't earn and i remember saying to myself yo when i manage groups i'm not going to be like kirby i'm going to be nice manager nice producer and that's what i did and then everything was trash you know what i'm saying like you know what i'm saying i mean like me and steve stout had groups when really first started out yeah when i first got in the game i put him in the game really and we had groups you put steve stout yes the legendary steve style the legends in the game yeah of course okay everybody knows that really yeah how did that happen dj whiz dj whiz uh was friends with steve and brought brought him kind of in into the into the the clan so to speak and steve and i hit it off like i i loved his energy he was very aggressive and we what we did was he and i created a company called kid entertainment and what we envisioned was we were going to cover them come at them like leor and russell you know i'm russell everybody love russell why russell russell and then here come leo to get the money and that was steve that was that was that's how we did it and you know we had we had up we had a few groups and we had a deal over at rca and and all this and that but i just remember at those times i was thinking to myself let's treat our groups nicer than how herby treated us but that was a mistake that was a mistake that's how i don't know we we didn't handle that right and i think the group suffered because of it um because we didn't make him earn it you know we gave him a lot out of the box we were you know like i said herbie treated us you know all bad you know like no he wasn't saying he was tough on us like nah dude this is how you got to do it this is how we doing it don't don't come in the studio and you and and write your rhymes your rhymes or your your lyrics you write them shits at home when you come into the studio you're on the clock yeah you know stuff like that and then other things too as well um but once again it was it was herbie's vision and it's like i said it's weird when we watched that movie it was you know it brought it all back and it was like seeing your whole childhood flash before your eyes and um look i heard the ratings were really good so that that you know i'm appreciative of that i mean i'm glad i'm glad that people got to see their story yeah and i mean steve stout now has a estimated net worth of like 55 million dollars according to the internet uh you know he was you know very yeah integral in the i unleashed him onto the world yeah i mean he's very integral in the mirrors this is the thing so forth yeah well this is the thing i knew i knew he could be that guy i knew that i knew that we just didn't do it together you know what i'm saying but trust me i knew that was that was my point my point was this guy is built for this industry this cutthroat you know what i'm saying type industry he's he's perfect for that you know what i'm saying he's a shark and and you know you know and i'm not a shark i'm a dolphin i'm a i'm uh i'm uh i don't know whatever yeah i'm a trout i don't know yeah i'm a tuna i'm a i'm a juicy tuna i'm like nemo everybody likes you that's not how you win in this business this is you win by being steve stoutish you know yeah so i i knew that but you know he's cool that's that's you know what i'm saying that's that's my young homie well before the biopic actually came out cinderella had some issues so she was essentially excluded from the production uh you know she said too often black women have made meaningful contributions in this industry are left out of historical narratives she felt that she was silenced and so forth sam pepper actually responded and said spinderella was an addition to what was already created now from your point of view from someone who was actually around everyone was spinderella integral in what was happening or was it salt and pepper were established and they just needed a dj you know what it if if it makes any sense both can be right salt and pepper were established there was a previous spinderella oh she took someone else's name yeah she wasn't she wasn't the original cinderella i did not know this no no go to go to the cover to the the first cover of the salt and pepper hot cooling vicious that's a different spinderella that's a different girl that's a different young lady that was the first spinderella so to your point ah-ha all right this is definitely not the cinderella wait this is like a law and order woman okay i did not know this yeah then i busted it on you in the car okay wait and then that album had push it on it no aha okay did not so the first album that's the first album push it wasn't on the first album push it was the b side to the single [ __ ] that blew up it wasn't it was an afterthought push it was herbie experimenting you know what i mean with a really wacky kind of song that didn't really sound hip hop it sounded really kind of clubby and if memory serves this is how crazy the record business is right it's the b side of [ __ ] which was a huge hit for salt and pepper then this one dj in hawaii i believe it was he flip it over he like yo i like this song some pop station in hawaii starts jamming push it and then it starts popping off pop pop but to your point she wasn't the first cinderella but they had problems with the first cinderella what was the problem man i don't even remember man it just it just didn't it just didn't click man you know what i'm saying i don't you know what i'm saying well and if you and if you if you if you watch the movie they try to make it like you know like i don't know like herbie was trying to push up on her or something like that i don't know you know what i'm saying like but it didn't work as as i recall and and they went and uh they got uh dede that's that's spinderella and she was mad young she was 16. um but and you know and so it was almost like you know big sister little sister type stuff so i i i think it's both i think obviously sean pepper was established but you know dede as spinderella gave them a boost you know you hear on the records you know she's on what a man you know she you know she people looked for her so you know i that that's one of the things that just you know it breaks your heart because i love i love all of them you know what i'm saying i'm cool with all three of them i got a i got a i got a relationship with all three of them in in in different ways and i love them and it it bothers me it bothers me that that you know that things went went left uh but that's that's probably there's you know as well as i think i know them but who knows there's probably stuff i don't even know that went down or whatever so i don't know but i i was you know i i'm happiest i'm happiest when when they're all together and they know that yeah i mean when i'm you know what i mean when i'm goofing off with dede you know what i mean or i'm trying to make cheryl laugh or i'm i'm you know stealing not stealing but sharing the liquor and sandy's refrigerator um so like i said that was i think that was part of it too talking about how i was getting emotional during the movie is because i know where they're at right now and they not they're not you know what i'm saying like it's not it's not it's not like it used to be and i know that's hard you know i mean it's hard it's hard to you know i want it to be 1988 so bad you know when we were on their their bus they let us come on their bus you know and open for them so well recently peppa is actually suing her doctor over a botched butt job you know about this i heard i heard i mean you know like you know what i mean like there was nothing wrong with it in the first place you know that's what i always say i'm just like yeah very pretty lady always she's still gonna say something mean not not just not just not just not just pretty like pep at her core like she's just a good person man but she's passion you know good and bad you know what i'm saying like there's no ain't no half stepping with her she's she loves you or she hates you and both hard you know what i mean um she got that jamaican vibe in her and you know we've i mean we've always you know we've always gotten along because i know i know her she you know she's like a cousin you know she reminds me of my my jamaican family you know i mean her her and trust used to get into it right wasn't that in the movie yeah man yup it was yeah it looked volatile yeah a little volatile but that sucked you know everybody got something to say then you then you talk to you do you talk to old boy about that you talking about that about it trench actually used to live in the building next to me when i when i lived in west new york i see him you know yeah walking his giant dog every so often you know what kind of dog did you think church was going on hey no he didn't have a poodle he did that has a lion uh yeah but i asked him about it uh he denied it you know he said that wasn't accurate now i remember in some interviews she claimed that that you were really physically abusive towards her throughout the relationship and she had a point where she told me and different people that once she told the book and the publishers she really didn't even read the whole book for came out and what happened was they juiced up the stories and everything else so all of that once you get into a different that's another part of this industry and everything else you got to know exactly when you go when you touch on certain issues you gotta make sure everything is actual factual or once somebody writes something people gonna believe first what they read not what the truth is because by the time the truth comes out it's too long for people they wanna know what the word is right then and then they run with it and we know the game um you know and who knows what happens in relationships you know who knows if the abuse was going both ways because trust me just as many women hit men as men hit women like to be totally honest but you know you never hear about it because the men usually don't say anything right right right yeah my you know i've never been hit by any of my women but i was i was always afraid to be no you know what you're right to your point um i i we don't know we don't know what's what goes on behind closed doors you know what i'm saying and um and those things man those relationships these relationships at at that time there was so much going on you know i'm famous you're famous she's famous you know we got money we got which means we got options which means we got temptations um it was crazy man we were you know we were we were we were young cats back then and and you know we led we led with our hearts we didn't always think things through um and then the next thing you know you in a relationship with somebody or you're having a baby with somebody they have a kid together yes they did oh i didn't know that okay yes they did that was um oh that was egypt aha okay who was who was in the movie by the way okay um and you know what they she oh my gosh she turned out wonderful you know what i'm saying so even with you know with all that whatever stress and strife they may have had you know um you know they made it work but you know it's tough they don't give you a handbook with this fame [ __ ] no you know you don't get a handbook you get a lot of money you get a lot of exposure you get a lot of access but you don't get a brochure on how to deal with you know to deal with it and you know we trust me if the kid and play biopic ever comes out you you'll yeah you'll see you'll see ups and downs there's ups and there's downs well uh along those lines in terms of volatile relationships ti and tiny are now like the number one training topic uh with essentially sex trafficking allegations uh you know with women i guess a bunch of women are claiming that they were trafficked you know and then forced into threesomes and forced into doing drugs and stuff like that uh i'll say this me personally i've known for a while that t.i and tiny are into threesomes like i've known this for like 10 years or something like that and there's nothing wrong with that and you know t.i responded today made a video where he essentially said the same thing he said whatever happens in our bedroom stays in our bedroom and whoever was there was there as a consenting adult and so forth so he basically admits the whole thing he's saying that you know this is what they do uh i i personally believe t.i and tiny what's your take on it um you know i just happen to see that like on the way over here yeah to be honest uh ti's uh response um still trying to work that out i mean you know like and you know i knew tiny from back in the days tiny was always oh really yeah man you see her at these like celebrity events and you know i mean like celebrity weekend basket you know some football players having a celebrity weekend and whatnot and you know coming in she you know we playing spades and she was always really just had a great personality you know you know she's you you're tiny has a personality like you you're kind of drawn to her you know i mean she's she's that kind of she has that vibe kind of magnet i mean and i guess ti does as well so i mean personally what they do is that's that's a that's a mystery to me you know what i'm saying like i never i don't know if you know i never i never was in a a romantic relationship situation where i could introduce that into the equation like you know my girl now my ex-wife my no they they like they was they were not having it matter of fact i remember back in the days um um when i think i think i was i think i was married and um some couple tried to step to us you know what i mean and then we looked at each other like yo you know we looked at each other like yo [ __ ] trying to step to us like you know you know extra nice and you know just that vibe and and it scared us we just we broke the [ __ ] out like yo get out of here i mean i've i've had relationships where you know another female could could hop in the mix every so often you know come on flag got my own blade yeah i mean it depends on the group you don't know how to flee some land we call that a fleesome threesomes foursomes what no fivesomes yet but you know yeah i mean it really you know for girls cool with that and for girl is into girls okay but then what but then but then what happened look this is this is my thing like why i never really was into that or mess with that is because what what if you have uh what do they call it uh uh buyer's remorse you know what i'm saying like like you know what i mean like if you you feel differently the next day or you know i don't i don't know i never i never i never mess with that because everybody says they're cool with a with a threesome until emotions get involved and then because maybe that's what happened here i don't know you know what i'm saying what happened i mean he's saying he the way he talking is like you know yo everything was cool until it wasn't cool yeah well listen at the end of the day you are very much a target as a celebrity especially a rich celebrity like a ti sure uh you are very much a target uh you know i've i've been targeted myself uh in the past i know how it works you end up having to settle lawsuits just because it's cheaper than yours not because you're just kidding you want the noise to go down it's not even a noise it's just like okay do i pay you know 10k to settle it or do i pay 500k to go to court and win and then i can't get my legal money back like th this this is just the the nature of celebrity and lawsuits in the legal system in america so you know girls are looking at these guys like licks like hey man listen i do this all i need is a lawyer that's all someone needs is a lawyer that will take a case on contingency and then you're pretty much screwed unless you get the judge to throw it out that's pretty much how it works if the lawyer takes it on contingency that means that whoever suing you pays nothing out of pocket nothing the lawyer covers everything they'll take a third or forty percent at the end so they can just keep going with this nonsense for years and you're spending tens of thousands of dollars on your lawyers which is not on contingency and then ultimately you just say okay fine what's the number y'all figure out a number but but how do you i mean my thing is this and like i said i just this is late breaking news to me i was checking it out i was like but how do how do you how do you get to the truth well how do you get to the truth i mean that's i mean that's that's one of the things that i heard t.i saying in in in the thing that i saw today he was just like i can deal with the truth like what and but how do how do we get to the truth how do we get to the truth listen i i i remember in in and it's none of my business by the way i will say this i remember in a situation that i was in and i'm not going to say which one or give me details but i remember when it got down to the actual negotiation of it all i was told like the person that was doing it said the truth doesn't matter we just need a number we just need to agree on a number the truth doesn't matter wow we just need to agree on a number i don't care about the truth here you see what i'm saying i was told that point blank in some [ __ ] that i was dealing with man this sounds like an episode of law and order yeah so at the end of the day man listen if ti and tiny wanna do threesomes cool uh were there drugs involved yeah maybe probably you know who cares you know whatever uh do the girls that i don't know are probably paid to do these threesomes they're probably into drugs i don't think you got to force these girls to take drugs a lot of the time hey man i'm easy breezy just give me some tito's and a white cloth okay you know you ain't gotta i don't need the you know i don't need the the ecstasy or whatever like that like yeah i mean but but to your point i like i don't how how does this how does it get resolved does it does i don't you know i'm interested to see because you know it's a thing well i mean everybody's talking about it yeah i mean it's resolved right now unless there's going to be a lawsuit or there's going to be criminal charges at which point it will need to be resolved one way or another but at this point it's just internet chatter and as someone who gets a lot of internet chatter to the point where i end up trending sometimes over nonsense over over false stories right it's just chatter but you know what yeah and guess what somebody's gonna bump their head next week and we're gonna start talking about that exactly you gotta wait until somebody you know somebody's gonna do something but yeah no i mean well and yeah like i said i i watched his um i watched ti's take on it today and he was you know he was very serious and it was you know man yeah you sure you want to be in show business are you sure oh yeah i mean the the money and the fame that you get comes at the price of your privacy it really it really does people always ask vlad why aren't you on camera all the time uh you know recently i was on camera with little bibby yeah i heard about that forced me to be your debut right and strong army into being on camera he said i won't do the interview unless you're on camera i should have did that dress like that i know you can do it like that all right my whole thing is that i i personally don't like the fame sure it feels nice when someone tells you yo how much of a fan they are or how something you know a product you put out affected their life a certain type of way like yes i i enjoy that as a content creator of course everyone does but the fact that i could walk around la or new york most of the time and go grocery shopping or go to restaurants or whatever uh and and really just not have to have who's that white guy yeah not have security with me 24 7 which i probably would if i was on camera all the time right so yeah well you know i'm i'm different i you know i've always loved the fame yeah yeah it's crazy it's not it's pretty awesome well well it's great until you have to uh poop in public then it's a problem you know what i'm saying you know what i mean cause people are watching you know what i mean back in the days i remember i was i was taking a flight back to new york from l.a had to stop in chicago and um you know it was like an early morning flight man i got off the plane you know my stomach is rumbling i'm like yo i got a bro i gotta i gotta make a move so i'm getting i find myself this real you know little distant desolate bathroom and i remember i had passed a couple like security dudes and whatever but i had a hat on so i was like i'm good whatever so i go in the bathroom and boom laying it down and then i hear somebody come in it's like six o'clock in the morning so the guy comes in the bathroom like this and you dude you could see i could see his feet outside the outside the stall he stopped by the store just waiting for you yo you know you could tell he had like the black the black sneakers like security dudes wear and [ __ ] you know so he's right outside the door and i'm like this i'm like and he's like kid kid oh my god damn it i'm like yeah kid kid what you doing in there kid nothing kid kid you in that [ __ ] kid he said that yeah he said that what are you talking about like it was yesterday he's like kid you in this [ __ ] and then this boy comes in man kid in this [ __ ] i can't hear that [ __ ] kid ain't no house party that's a [ __ ] party look at this [ __ ] like so yeah that's the one of the few times when fame didn't work in my favor well uh you mentioned vanilla ice i love vanilla ice yeah great guy well recently since our last interview oh yeah we got introduced to vanilla isis oh what's that those are the people who invaded the capitol building oh is that no stop it that's what they call it that's vanilla well you know that's what black twitter started oh my god vanilla isis oh my god he did he did play for the beat didn't he do the party he performed he performed for trump yeah he performed for trump man he don't give a [ __ ] yeah and you know what i'll say this i know i know i know ice personally and i know he's a big he's a big military guy okay like i was i'm going to was on tour with this dude for like the last four or five years before the pandemic hit mm-hmm and that's that's that's a big thing with him like he always shouting out the military and like that and you know and and i'm you know and i'm i'm sure me i don't know his politics you know what i'm saying but obviously you know you know probably a republican yeah probably on the right side but but you know what i'm saying which is which is that's that's his you know that's his prerogative you know what i'm saying um but um like as a person like you know that i'm sure there's a lot of you know trumpians that i that i can't [ __ ] with at all like i can't and i don't even know if dudes are trump whatever but i'm saying we always got along we got a long these last few years on tour oh my god he's he's been super super dope and i bet you they paid him a grip oh yeah oh yeah a grip okay and then but then absolutely so yeah i mean you know you know what i mean and that's the thing you have to ask yourself you be like yo man dude's like yo man you got we got like 100 racks for for like 20 minutes what would you do yeah you know what i'm saying no i wouldn't do it we wouldn't do it yeah i wouldn't do it either i wouldn't do it but i don't blame people doing it and i heard what's the name did it as well uh taylor dean she performed oh okay tell it to my heart well when you saw the capital building getting attacked by a wow angry mob of white people wow uh what did you think honestly i was at home you know i might have had a puff or two and i i literally thought i was dreaming i thought it was i was like are you i was like yo these dudes jumping in the capitol like they climbing the walls couldn't believe it couldn't believe it um and there's all you know there's more information coming out uh every day um that was just some crazy [ __ ] man like what and but they felt like they could they felt like they could i mean and no and you look i don't care man you know i have friends of mine that always say like you you always look at things on the racial tube yeah i do i look that's some of the first things that come to my mind so when i see these dudes running up on the capitol you know the first thing in my mind is man if that was black people they'd be shooting they'd be shooting us like a like you know what i mean like dogs that's the first thing came in my mind i'm like wow must be nice you could storm the capital you could take the speaker's gavel and pee on her desk and take her lectern and go through they you see all that footage that came out they're going through they they little they lit their little school desks and you know they come up like this i was like yeah i ain't seen the dust like that since i was in they going all through their [ __ ] and hitting the gavel and doing all this and that the [ __ ] with the horns i was like i was like wow must be nice you know what i'm saying let me just say this in october there's going to be a large group of white men who are going to dress up like the q anon shaman and end up losing their job because of this okay i'm just i'm predicting this yeah maybe so but then even even something i heard in the aftermath of that was like a lot of these cats you know that they that they arrested and brought in they just they just like tossing them like go ahead go this one this dude wants organic food like get the [ __ ] out of here get out of here you don't get a you don't get a sun burger get out of here you're gonna eat what everybody else eats yeah i mean seeing a mob of hillbillies just rush up into the the capitol building really messed up my day i really just felt embarrassed i i think as an american now yeah you know listen i was born in what used to be russia but from five years old i've been an american this is the only thing i can identify with so seeing this as an american i just was like embarrassed i mean like yo did you see that thing do you see the that russian when the russian mob they was fighting the the the police the other day no i missed that man you talking about the dude just came back what's his name oh yeah uh uh now navalny navalny right and they they got him they arrest and then they were fighting in the street with the cops yeah man them dude y'all the brushes russians was like oh yeah man the russians was getting it dude it was like it was in the street fighting with you know look and that's and that's that's that's kind of different like yo look everybody knows trump gassed them up they they you

he said he said he said i'd i'll be there with you i'll meet you over there i'm out [ __ ] broke out yeah yeah well uh i don't know where we're you know what hopefully we're on a new page now i hope so you know what i'm saying it feels better now with with biden it just feels like yeah i mean yeah the knock on biting is and it's funny like my man bill maher he's already got jokes on biden just like you know being that forgetful old man and everything he had a joke the other day like this is what he's thinking you know so they haven't zoomed this net and he said he said j-lo i thought they said we were having jell-o you know so that's the knock on biting like he's old he's old daughtering forgetful but guess what when he's sharp he's sharp and i you know at least there's there's an adult back in the room and a jamaican woman behind him well how does it feel as a jamaican yeah as a biracial man yeah to see someone like yourself yeah as the vice president it's it's awesome uh i mean kamala harris kamala's you know you just like i said you just feel like you know the adults are back in charge you know what i mean like you know anytime you know we watched her as a senator she was always super duper prepared and and you know she was vicious man she's going she's gonna give him hell and like you know look i'm look i'm a democrat i get it i'm a lefty um but you know you just want competent people you know you know when when it's not your side that one you just want people that are competent that put competent people into place you i mean the trump administration was just like you know it was all like it was all pay for play yeah you know what i mean yeah pretty much um you know what i'm saying i don't know how much you got for them pardons going out the door and everything you know yeah i don't know how much wayne paid or whatever but probably i heard yeah i mean you hear all kind of stuff i heard it was like you know you could have a conversation for you know you got to have one or two million you know one one two minutes yeah i heard two million to have a conversation about yeah something like that yeah just to have the convo yeah i mean a lot of people got pardoned yeah and you know what i i get it uh presidents you as you know presidents typically do that on the way out the door everybody man he just he's just blatant with it like you know what i'm saying like it just and when he does it it just feels dirty well have rappers ever been pardoned by presidents before no that must be the first one that's definitely the first because and then guess what now wayne looks smart as a [ __ ] right well let me tell you something back in november you could go through the vlad catalog like i remember tk kirkland when i interviewed him i said back in november i said lil wayne took that pic because he's got a federal gun case he's gonna get a pardon at the end and i was like oh no that's not true i said just wait and i kept saying it you know when i interviewed faison love i said it when i interviewed a bunch of people i just kept saying it i'm like this is what's gonna happen that's exactly what happened yeah you know what i didn't i didn't i i guess it went over my head i didn't think of that at the time now it makes perfect sense yeah because he just because he you know with the flak you know whatever that ch you know that week's chatter was all about him yeah you know it was ah you sell out you this isn't that but he's thinking long game and if he and if he bounced on the federal gun charge come on tell me one rational man that would say take a pic with trump or do years in prison pick one pick one i guess you would how many years i got to do now if it was a couple of months i think a lot of people would be like no i'll just do it but years right and you don't know because wayne already had a previous gun charge conviction actually that he went to prison for so this is gun charge number two yeah you got ain't no telling you get the wrong job you yeah you get the wrong judge you end up with 10 years you get the wrong judge you'll be like come on come on [Applause] right well uh you know kodak black uh he was trying to get a pardon he got what happened that didn't happen no he got one he got a pardon i i guess he's not i guess he's out but he's got this other sexual assault case that's kind of hanging over him still oh that yeah oh great there's that yeah that part well uh you had posted uh on your instagram uh a picture of ted cruz and grayson allen said who wore the punchable face better right i wish i'd have said it better i was just like you know what i mean like i i think when i did it on twitter i did a little bit different i said um you've only got one to punch like which one are you punching you know what i mean or but to that point yeah they're both pretty punchable don't you think i i hate ted cruz honestly he was out there you know i mean basically and i hate racing well he was doing the same type of thing trump was doing hyping the crowd you know after after the capital uh attack he actually kept arguing about about the the election was stolen he still said that yeah but you know look cruz is a and i was rooting so hard for uh my man uh uh beto remember when beto was running against yeah i was man but they flame flip texas she said they will the way they flip georgia they're going to flip texas one day it's heading that way but i mean to me guy like ted cruz like i mean he has no he has no spine no he's got no courage trump called his wife ugly yeah he called his wife ugly and he said his father tried to kill jfk or some crazy [ __ ] yeah like and then yeah and you come right back and keep your tongue in his ass stop it man you know what i'm saying and grayson allen don't get me wrong grayson now is just a basketball player he's not as bad as ted cruz i just thought they looked alike and then grayson allen was just like he's one of those duke players that you don't like and he was always tripping people and trying to kick people in the nuts and [ __ ] so i was just i came across it one day i said yo these two look like they're related and [ __ ] i was like who would you rather punch in the face well uh kodak black while he was locked up he said that if trump lets him out he'll uh donate a million dollars and he said like on god or something and uh africa got part he took that tweet down no no i read about that and his lawyer said that like whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa you can't that's like against the law or something man like you can't you know what i'm saying the lawyer the lawyer came in and told him take that [ __ ] down like i don't know what what the legal you know the specificity is of it but the lawyer was like nah you can't uh you can't say you're gonna you know i don't know is that suborning a pardon i don't know what it is but uh yeah you're trying to get out but is it is he out or is he not out i think he's out because he recently tattooed his lawyer's name on his hand with a little jewish star next to it he converted judaism did he really well locked up yeah in fact his new album he's got him and like a picture of well it's a drawing of him with like a jewish rabbi really yeah oh my god yo remember that dude that that the uh that modest yahoo guy yeah remember him yeah he was like a jamaican rabbi yo and it'd be like i'd see some of these flyers and it'll be like you know you know like on the on the carpet featuring menace yahoo and small letters and beanie man it's like beanie man a second to this guy for real damn the world is changing yo he yo he he had his time man he was hot he was hot he was hot i didn't i heard he like he cut his hair or he like you don't yeah he shaved his feet he don't look he don't he's doing the rabbi listen i used to live in this iceland borough park in new york when i first moved uh to new york and uh i used to live right off of fairfax okay being around no but this is really like a hasidic hasidic yeah with the biggest house across the street from the biggest synagogue with the biggest hats the biggest hats you know sunday everything is shut down no cars no you got a big hat a big hat and uh hey man listen uh at the end of the day i think i think busy said it uh when you're locked up you really try to find god and you try to find something to get you through those those hard times and you know you know what did the wait correct me if i'm wrong i think i was watching one of your interviews and you were interviewing somebody and they said uh they were telling you about being in prison and about how like you're not supposed to wake people up yeah they said don't like if you wake somebody up because that's when they're free so if you wake like you wake somebody up they they want to they want to [ __ ] you up because i'm i'm actually at peace when i'm awake i'm i'm i'm in prison yeah well snoop dogg and eminem looked like they were going to go at it at one point uh i want to say do my my home alone phase and i remember you had posted on instagram uh a picture of eminem wearing a kid and play was it too hype album cover shirt yeah it was that was a that was a shocker it was a picture and then um i ran across some footage or somebody sent me some footage of like he was at a con you know doing a concert somewhere halfway around the world and he was you know you know how you go to veda and he had the kid in place [ __ ] on with that i was like wow that was you know yeah i just made me feel good you know yeah i remember i saw an interview that uh mama i made it i think a crooked eye interviewed eminem and he was talking about those shirts because he he does a lot of that he wears these t-shirts on stage with like was it shabazz the disciple and like all these kind of 80s 90s you know album covers and artists that a lot of people aren't familiar and he said he does this on purpose because those are albums that influenced him a lot and he figures that if he wears it you know the younger people who watch it will go look it up and actually discover it which is pretty dope on a hip hop no it is and i mean it's actually something that i that i that i do myself like i'll wear you know even when we were performing as kid and play i'll have another group's shirt on i have like a two live crew shirt on or a thing like that because with the same mindset yo let me you know i'm i'm where this is all hip-hop you know we're all together uh and so when i saw eminem with our with our [ __ ] on i was like yo that's that's love you know what i'm saying um you know like i said i remember back in the days before he came out and i ran into dr dre and dr dre told me he was coming out i ran into him in century city and he's like yo man i got a white boy i said well you got a white boy he said i got a white boy and all i'm thinking is man if this dude got a white boy this white boy must be [ __ ] he must be spazzing you know what i mean yeah and then and then you know like three weeks later you know hi my name is hi my name is type [ __ ] but no that's love and i think i think real true hip-hoppers and and artists you know we feel that way yeah so he yeah if he given us some shine but it was it was just weird seeing it i was just like wow you know i was like this dude like kid and play like hey all right i mean mama made it well yeah i mean me and eminem me and eminem are like the same age i think we are just a few yeah in fact i'm convinced that eminem looks at me and then styles himself after me really i got a short beard eminem gets a short beard i grow my beard out long eminem grows his beard out long when he had a long beard he's got a long beard right now he does yeah oh [ __ ] yeah hold on a second let me dab it yeah this is eminem now what see that see that now how do i know he's copying my style okay okay absolutely no no reason whatsoever i'm just making it up i mean you know but that's your story that's my story not sticking to it i've never met the man we've never talked yeah he does he does watch my interviews because there's been he said stuff about his albums that referenced interviews that i've done oh i'm not gonna go to the details okay multiple times there's been vlad tv interview references thrilling on eminem on eminem songs but yeah i'm convinced that he's he's copying my stuff that's okay that's okay man listen it's cool it's cool to you know i don't know i know i'm flying i know i know you're trying to figure out your directions i'm a cool 47 year old as well you know what is he that old yeah he's 47. um what what would you think about an actual snoop dogg eminem battle them [Music] that's a thumper right there yo they both got stupid heads man right but it wouldn't be about the hits it'd be about a battle song battle rap not really i mean those verses about i mean you ask those verses we're talking about like they were actually like a battle battle yeah eminem kind of took a shot at snoop on the song since i heard that it was it was like it's like it was like it was a you know it was it was more of a fake you know what i'm saying you know like you know what i'm saying like i don't know man i i i i you know i'm saying i i know i know snoop i mean you know he's i mean they're both two of the greats you know what i mean they're two of the great you know hip-hop artists of all time man they need to stop and they they they pretty much was from the same camp like i don't get that that's that [ __ ] just yeah that [ __ ] just went that [ __ ] just went left man right well apparently it's all good between them oh is it yeah yeah somebody who said that they talked and they're good yeah i mean somebody somebody smart will call them and be like yo come on man you know what i'm saying like like i said back in the days when we had beef with with uh with uh uncle luke and everything like that you know there was people that knew both of us that was just like come on stop it you know like you know what i'm saying like you know what i'm saying like this is ridiculous like well you know you mentioned dr dre uh who's going through a nasty divorce right now and uh he had a brain aneurysm and he was in the hospital for like a week in icu right down the block from me he was at cedars okay i live right up the block huh that was like damn like we really thought we might lose dr dre in 2021 and that's where eze died too oof at cedars yeah by the way did you ever interact with these guys i mean you mentioned how you you know you ran into dre and stuff like that but you guys knew each other no we yeah we we toured together back in the days man yeah kidding play in nwa the total offices just feels right [Laughter] what could go wrong if you if you go back to the movies straight out of compton right yeah that that tour they were on we were on that tour they just didn't mention it in the movie were you in detroit when no no we weren't on the detroit show but we were because because we actually had to leave the tour a little bit early because we went to go film the original house party so we weren't at the detroit show but uh we we did like i don't know about probably about eight shows with them uh easy e nwa kid and play jj fad d.o.c um i think uh kwame may have been on it as well and um yeah and i remember i remember them proposing that tour to us and i was like [ __ ] we what are we doing with these gangster dudes man get out of here and uh you know because i thought it was like two different audiences i was like yo we're not that's not us and you know everybody else was like nah we're gonna do it we're gonna do it right and then we we had the best time we all you know i know them dudes to this day man i [ __ ] with them right but but to be to be fair you really have to understand that back then there were so few hip-hop groups that you couldn't just segment it out to john to hip-hop genres right but let me let me tell you why but let me let me tell you why let me tell you why groups like nwa and why groups like public enemy always asked us to tour with them we helped them we helped them get in the buildings those those groups had trouble getting insurance for those buildings so public enemy was called us every year like yo boom boom yo we got kid and play and you know we they used us to to you know i mean not used us but they incorporated us here to to kind of show that yo it's not all boom diddy bap it's not gangsta rap it's not that you know public enemy political stuff and and we all went out together they would that's why they would throw us or or jazzy jeff and will on the on the bill with them to get in the building [ __ ] was tk kirkland tk kirkland you always get me talking about this he's everywhere tk yeah 2k no tk was was the he was the emcee of that nwa tour he was you know in between all the acts and whatever like that yeah that's tk anyway wait two short was on that tour too short as well right right right right we were the ones that didn't really belong but we was like hey whatever you know any uh any crazy easy nwa stories along the way um you know what back then like i said we we didn't really know each other prior to that you know so it was like some east coast west coast but once we got once we got down and started kicking it man we were all getting along you know shooting pool you know at the hotel or whatever like that um and and you know like you know chasing girls type stuff there was a lot of that going on back then um we never saw a whole lot of easy you know what i mean like outside of being on stage like easy was always keeping it moving and he was always like you know you know like the you know the presidential suite or whatever you know i mean they kind of kept like like separate or whatever but i will i do remember one night we were performing i think it was cincinnati and they they gave us a little pep talk before the show they had like the city council person and some of the local leaders saying hey man you guys cannot curse on stage we can't have no cursing there's zero tolerance like nwa don't even think about singing [ __ ] the police that's everything is done all y'all all you can't curse this and that and back in the days like you know playing i was never really known for that but there was a point in um in the song getting funky where we we would go man don't even [ __ ] with me we get funky nothing like that we would do that so that night we flipped it we went back to the original and we was like man don't even mess with me we're getting funky then later on nwa went on and they start cussing and whatever like that and we all had to we all had to run out off the stage into the into the van before the cops came and run run back to a hot so the hotel right so bam we ran we all ran in and we're all in the van together i'm in the van and we got ren and ice cube and then we're all up in there and then i think it was cube cube looked at me like you know like look at me like i'm a sucker and he was like man don't even mess with me we're getting funky i was like shut up like you [ __ ] he's like you [ __ ] ass [ __ ] [Laughter] because they clustered that's the reason why we had to dip but he was like man don't even mess with me we get funky shut up ice cube let me ask you a question because you know especially with you guys and during like the era when you guys were hot dancing was such an integral part of hip-hop because i mean in the beginning dancing was very part of hip-hop with break dancing and everything else like that but then you know as you guys are getting hot you know you guys were considered you know some of the best dancers in hip-hop and there was a lot of groups m.c hammer obviously was on fire uh you know vanilla ice you know was big on the dancing thing you know in the music videos you would see guys dancing yeah right totally but then at one point and you could potentially blame it on nwa like dancing just sort of stopped you know buy rappers and and you know you fast forward to 2020 you know 2021 i can't even think of a single male rapper who dances yeah not really you know maybe a little two-step or whatever but actually dances choreographed dancing zero zip and it's been like that for probably 25 years yeah you want to see somebody dance you got to go watch a chris brown video or something not a rapper though he's a single now now singers singers will dance r and b never really you know let go of the dancing but rap yeah you can't i'm literally gangsta rap gangsta rap gangster rap killed it i mean well hurt it and then you know we we we you know we've been trying to bounce back ever since but i mean yeah yeah you're right i mean that used to be like a a prerequisite like you had to kind of move around like what are you what are you doing how are you entertaining people you know you had to kind of jam um and then yeah i think once once that once the once the gangster rap hit um you know it was about it wasn't about dancing you know what i'm saying and then and then even to that point i think uh was it was it goody mom made a record like people don't dance on mall all they do is this all they do is this yeah oh they do is this you know or just look cool or look look hard and whatnot yeah that that was the thing and and but you know but it's it's weird i think people still i mean maybe and maybe that's why people still like our stuff and people still were going to our concerts and stuff man they go back and look and they said man look at the colors look at people dancing look at people having fun you know what i'm saying yeah so the i i see i see a younger generation reaching back to our material right because they're just not doing it now you just sort of lose you know because you know like in high school like like i i you know i would go to dances i would dance like you know what i did i was i was a break dancer back in the day like dancing to me was such an integral part of me being into hip-hop it just was you know you go to clubs you dance with girls like dancing and yet you know i want you know the baby you get those you know the baby yeah that was definitely that's how you got the girl you gotta dance you gotta dance but yeah and i feel like if i could say that one big thing is missing in hip hop these days that we had back in the day i think is the dancing i would i would agree with that i would agree with that um particularly on the on the hip hop tip you're right the rappers that they're just you know they got all that money to their head and all this and that but they're not yeah they're not jam but you know who i saw you know i saw um dance a little bit um was uh was it the baby that's what i said yeah the baby yeah the baby a little bit a little bit in fact yeah and i actually looked it up you know uh in the bop video he actually had male choreographed dancers yeah which was you know and he sort of did a little two-step but that's what i'm saying but even him he he wasn't really part of the choreography like that in the way that a chris brown would be you see what i'm saying like yeah i don't know man well uh in our last interview i think uh probably the most popular part of the interview was you doing the oak cliff song oh god wait how yo did they ever find out who killed that dude who both three yeah yeah someone's been arrested no way yeah are you serious yeah i was just thinking about it the other day when i you know what i was coming up i was like yo did they have it so someone who's been arrested and charged uh you know the trial hasn't started yet but uh yeah they they they got together well yeah that's i mean that's a good thing man you know it's funny unfortunately as as i think we talked about last time a lot of times you get into these people's music after they've passed you know i really wasn't i really wasn't hip to mode three before so i went back and i was like yeah that that song he has with a boozy i listen to that song everybody ain't your friend yeah great song that's a great question i just play it i play for my girlfriend just to let you know like yo everybody you know don't always be nice to everybody everybody ain't your friend everybody needs your partner you know what i mean i love that song yes i'm sorry i am sorry i didn't get hit to it soon but yeah old cliff yeah i got a lot of i got a lot of plumb off of that oh clip that's pop no let it be understood i actually looked up the song afterwards yeah i forgot and i didn't remember the dude's name at the time man um come on now i know you got it uh that song uh oak cliff that's my hood my young nino and hot boy star young nino that's what i was thinking of young neil peace to young nino sorry if i can get all the words right but you know well uh i actually just interviewed busy how's he doing by the way like i'm fascinated he's in a wheelchair i mean not permanently but right now he is he rolled up in a wheelchair in where you're sitting right now a motorized wheelchair i mean he was still fresh and everything else like that but uh yeah he got shot in the leg needed two operations and let me tell you something you know if anyone ever wants to question busy's uh principles or street authenticity he said on camera he said i was asleep i woke up in the hospital i didn't know nothing that happened what kind of car were you in i don't know man i woke up and i was shot i was in the hospital okay so you don't want to talk about that whole thing okay yeah i woke up okay you know there ain't got no ain't got no police report or nothing that really i told him nah ain't no police reporting okay so we don't have to talk about the actual situation i woke up i was in the hospital okay laughing laughing yeah you know when you get shot it's a blessing because god can take you because you're still alive yeah so you're happy that you're alive yeah every time i get shot i'm happy i'm alive okay he was asleep when they shot it at the that display i'm not saying that but that's what he said he told me that he didn't see nothing that's what he told the police they kept bringing in all these people what happened i don't know i was asleep i woke up when i was oh like that that part that part okay that part i get it you said i'm not cooperating i didn't see anything i don't know who did it i don't know why they did it i was asleep that's cool and he said and i'm like you know if they caught you know catch these guys would you feel better i said he said i don't want to see no man in jail he said i don't always jail nobody that's yes cole yeah yeah uh that's cool you know and you know when i asked him about uh how he felt about mo three uh passing and you know that was his man yeah that was his man you know they had a a an album together and they were [ __ ] with each other he said well you know he said when he found out about it he said you know wow they killed his his little partner but he said unfortunately this is what you sign up for when you when you get in the streets yeah you know i told you i listened to that song all the time man you know the one the one the version that has boozy on it you know what i'm saying now my baby mama putting a hand up well you know his baby mother actually testified against him yeah yeah but i'm assuming that was real nah my baby mama in the car but i hand up oh yeah i mean he even made a song about the shooting said they should have shot me in the head oh my god oh yeah man that is right i'm the guy that made it ain't gonna hurt nobody that's your uh that's your taking no bullets please yeah well shout out to busy man he he's doing shows like literally like a couple days later like you show up in the wheelchair and everything that yeah no that man's hustle is like nothing i ever see i'm a fan i don't want i don't think like you know disrespect when i when i say come on vlad i'm saying it with the utmost respect oh yeah you know what i'm saying you know i mean speaking of boosie uh we talked about his appearance on mike tyson's podcast yeah you actually have a picture with mike tyson uh at the at the ranch well at the training gym where he does the podcast right exactly that's actually where we interviewed him okay uh yeah yeah yeah yeah exactly um you know texas like that known known mike tyson a long time really yeah long time from new york from back in the new york days like when he was you know i mean when he first started jumping okay and um you know he's always been cool man i remember those one time way back in the days like you know we run into him at a club or something like that and you know he's starting i remember one time play just got to you know i don't know man and mike just grabbed him and he like he put him in like a headlock and then he just kept squeezing him like and played like oh dude chill chill like he didn't mean anything by it but he was just you know back then michael was he was a wild boy you know the mic the mic we see right now he's so chill um when we were doing our residency in in vegas with salt and pepper a couple years ago mike would come to the shows he would chill out with us we'd smoke afterwards you know he was he's just the person that he is right now is just like so smooth and creamy like i can't believe it's like the same person man he's super chill man well uh when we interviewed him uh zab judah yeah did the interview yeah yeah yeah but at the end i was there the whole time and we're doing it in the ring actually right we're filming in in his ring boxing ring and uh i hopped in at the end and asked a few questions and i think i got on mike's nerves a little bit really did you watch that clip no i didn't see that part because yeah i didn't i didn't and i didn't know you were ended up in in the interview because i knew i knew zab was doing it right i thought i've seen some of it with thing i'll show you the clip look at this everything was going good until what happened oh lord you've always you know you talk about your relationship with zip you know zip is kind of a very interesting figure zippo is kind of the go-between between like puffy and all the south side crips maybe um you know what is it i'm looking dead here you are this multi-millionaire and you know it seems like you've always been attracted to the the guys that are still on the streets to a certain degree do you think that's a fair statement you're never attracted to them well not attracted to them but i mean you like having them around you you're friends with them and you mean they're like handing them around i'm just asking dang i like you think i'm friends what do you think you think i like having them around you just spoke nicely about zip so i just yeah you know who i don't know these guys are when you talk what do you say about me i'm gonna speak whatever i am right but no those guys are those are the guys that when i'm whoever i am is a nobody i mean those are the guys that live in the same building with me they give my mother salt or sugar if they need the milk they're the same guys the same guys you rob streets let them off and you went to juvenile detention with so as you can see there there was one moment where oh yo he's yeah oh i know that look he's done trust me detracted oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah like yeah he could take it that way right you know what i'm saying and and quite honestly i i shouldn't have used that word yeah that was a bad choice that was a bad choice milk was a bad choice in fact when i was talking about this this video with faison love he basically compared it to the joe pesci goodfellas moment like yeah funny what do you mean funny like i'm a clown for your amusement yeah totally no i got that vibe i got that i got the joe pesci vibe right now i got him i got shook just watching that i was just like oh oh right but but you know i mean yeah did you land the plane i stood i stood my ground and i kept the interview going and he actually did he warm up yeah he warmed up afterwards as you could tell he started to be like he understood what i was trying to say yeah and we just kept it moving you know but i had my mike tyson moment this is this is vlad living on the edge well but you know i mean to be honest and not everyone realizes this is as as an interviewer you are a performer and an entertainer an interview yes is supposed to be factual and and so forth but you're also entertaining the audience so you have to create the best product that you could possibly create and you kind of have to get people out of their comfort zone sometimes in order to create this product the best interviews are not the happy-go-lucky interviews it's the ones that involve tough questions and serious topics and sometimes you know people cry in in interviews like and and as someone who's devoted my life well be careful with mike tyson because the person would be crying might be you okay i might be people crying i might be the one exactly you're right when it's all said and you're done it was it would have it would have went bad and you know mike wallace over here this guy this guy this guy 60 minutes vlad over here look well you know something that's actually what i based flat tv on from day one from day one i wanted my tv to be a hip-hop 60 minutes that's exactly what i said well i remember and look i i watched 60 minutes since i was a child and mike wallace was always known as he was the toughest questioner like you know he would you know he would you know he would he didn't care who i don't care who it was whatever president or whatever head of state oh yeah or whatever like that he he asked a question he's smoking a bogey everything like isn't it true then you the rubber there was that one moment i remember i watched this documentary and in an interview with i think the ayatollah khamenei he mentioned that this other leader called him a madman and then like a week later that other leader got killed like publicly you see what i'm saying like yeah like you can't do that in front of the guy like you know what i'm saying like you could tell that the first time you heard him yeah and also too and maybe that's kind of the deal with what happened when you were mike it's like sometimes it's like a like a like a cultural thing or a street thing like the way you phrase something yeah you know what i'm saying because um some of them some of them zany middle eastern castle just like you know oh no you can't you know what i mean like that's a uh-uh yeah you don't even know you can't don't even go there don't even go there like that's that's a total disrespect or whatever like that but yeah no listen i was like all right i gotta figure figure my way out of this because i'm literally in the ring with mike tyson right now literally in a boxing ring with mike tyson yeah and i gotta figure out my way out of this but i can't just yeah shout to mike tyson i can't just run away the guy's the guy he would come to our shows in vegas he was a sweetheart he would come with uh with uh his homeboy our homeboy uh craig boogie shout out to craig boogie and um yeah he's just a he's just a whole he's just a kindler gentler uh mike these days you know i mean except when you're interviewing except let me tell you this though because watching that interview that primarily him and zab did together yeah and then much height right there they're actually good friends um and and watching it over and like really getting deep into it like mike is so philosophical and introspective and accepts his mistakes and lives with them and grows from them and i've never seen that level of honesty in i don't think anyone i've ever interviewed especially someone on that level because that's essentially the biggest celebrity we've ever had on flat tv like we've had famous people but mike tyson famous is a different type of famous yeah and it's like the fact that he could really just be so honest with himself it was really just inspirational like well i i aspire to be like mike tyson in that way yeah he's mad zen though right you know he is he's just like real super i mean like super chill but to me that's like that's like you know you're off off their meds and you're just smoking weed man like it's you know what i'm saying sometimes it's simple as that he's super chill smoking crazy that tyson ranch is off the chain yeah you know what i mean he's i mean he's at a he's in a great place in his life i saw him the other day he was showing somebody all his pigeons he still got mad pigeons you got mad pigeons yeah you got mad pigeons mad pigeons yo man you know what i'm saying but no he's super chill but yeah you gotta oh my god oh yeah i mean did you see the fight with uh with roy jones yes i did tyson took it easy on him totally totally i think so you know roy roy wasn't wasn't quite ready you know what i'm saying um and i felt bad i felt bad for my man uh nate nate robinson you know what i'm saying big fan of his i heard he's still in the ring by the way did they never know don't see that no he's going to god i heard the white dude who's going to fight somebody else now yeah jake paul is supposed to fight he's going to get his ass fight an actual mma guy he gave me he's going to be right because let me tell you i like i interviewed actual fighters tony roberts you need your ass beat yeah i interviewed actual you know like me and zap talked about you know the fight afterwards michael j white we talked about it yeah everyone agreed that nate robinson had no time in the ring before this fight he did not train no who's a great and he's a great athlete now he's a great basketball player i think i think he really leaned on that fact sure to think that oh yeah i've been in some street fights i'm going to whip this white boy's ass yeah whereas jake paul actually took it seriously he's a big ass white boy too though he's a big ass white boy he's a big fan right and his brother is supposed to fight mayweather stop it yeah let's go out of here that's cool that's like ridiculous that's gonna be there no but uh yeah now we watched it we went to my man's crib and uh we watched the fight we had we had a really good time you know we just look they just they just unlocked the stake bro you know i don't i don't know if we're gonna go somewhere or do something but right you know you know we've been on lockdown for a minute yo well uh robin harris that was someone was very key to your career you know played your father in a house party yep uh i had an interview with john sally and faison love about robin harris and they both told me a very similar story and that story is that robin ridiculed them so bad on stage that they literally threw away the clothes that he was talking about like john sally came in with this like pink suit right and robin harris like look at that big old pepto bismol bottle over there walking around john cena said he got back in his car drove home took the pink suit off and threw the carpet burned it right you know what i'm saying put a new set of clothes and went back back when i first wanted to do comedy man it's 87 and i'm i'm just gonna go to comedy i go to see robin harris i think i tell the story i got a pink outfit all right pink shirt linen pants go with it and i walk in it and robin howard said look at that tall bottle of pepto-bismol glad i got up i had rented a rolls-royce too i walk outside in la burke park i get in my rolls royce i drive back to center city i throw that outfit in the garbage and faison was like i guess he had like some red boots on or something and like robin was like red ass boots he said he went in the back and through the garbage my first uh all black crowd was with me and robin harris um he came down the house just for people even know who robin was um this comedy thing was bees bees some some some little rinky dink place held about maybe 40 50 people and i had some red shoes on some red boots and he talked about my boots so damn bad when i got on stage i went downstairs and took the boots off and threw them in the trash i was like man don't never let me buy no goddamn red boots dude let me tell you robin he he he roasted everybody yeah first time yeah first time i met him i'm walking up in the spot you know with my high top and this is it look at this look at this [ __ ] here [ __ ] elevated shaft on his head i'm like what next thing you know like next thing you know 200 people are laughing at you like incessantly you know what i'm saying but you know when we were on the set of house party like you know at lunch time or whatever guys would intentionally like try to antagonize them so that he could just roast them you know what i mean like man what the [ __ ] you talking about with the river just and just lace your ass up but that was robin man but he was um you know that was you know that was his uh his uh his stilo but he was a great dude man he was a really good dude you know you know he and i spent so much time together because we had a lot of scenes together so we talked man and we would talk about you know his son was young at the time and he would talk to me about you know what he was going through raising his son and his wife exeter um you know we just we had some really cool conversations man the the last thing i i i spoke to him about we were at uh we had a screening for house party before it came out it was just a screening and um i saw him at the end of the screening and he said he said man you're gonna get a you gonna get an image award for this man that's what he told me and i i ended up getting nominated for an image award for house party nice that was the last time i saw him he and he died like of like a few days later you know it was it was terrible you know i feel really fortunate and lucky like i got to work with robin harris very closely i got to work with bernie mac very closely i got to work with john wizardspoon you know what i'm saying like these are like really really cool people like legendary you know comedic figures and i'm i feel fortunate that i you know i got i got stuff on the board with them and then i got to spend time with them and they that they knew how much i respected them and i cared about them you know what i'm saying like you know robin was he took care of all of us man me play excuse me tommy davidson martin lawrence you know what i'm saying like he was he was older than us so he he took care of us you know he would give us advice you know he was he was the boss and and we all knew it and we didn't have a problem with that uh so you know still still a tragic tragic loss to this day but you know what um like i said you know i got i got house party with him and you can't take that away from me right and um you know you play that today them scenes with me and him or any scene with him in it that [ __ ] still slaps to this day he said i don't give a god damn if bob and gay gonna be there you won't every little step you take on me around this bedroom tonight well you know you mentioned john with a spoon uh i got to interview him before he passed that to me that's one of the great moments in my company i feel to really get his life story like that uh in the end i gotta watch the whole thing i've watched pieces of it you know what i mean like i watched a piece uh earlier today yeah where he said they got five thousand dollars right right when when the movie was coming together the the movie cost two million dollars two million dollars we got paid five thousand dollars a piece to do that movie right i mean recently chris tucker came forward and said that he only got ten thousand to do friday and everyone else got five uh were people well paid for house party more paid than that i got more than that i got more than that i mean that's why i couldn't believe it like we did we get a lot now we didn't get a lot and i probably got the most because you know i was i was number one i was i was you know what i'm saying playing i probably got the most out of everybody yeah and it was it was not a lot and and they only made that movie for two and a half million dollars they said you they said they made friday for two million two million something like that yeah it was just two and a half for a house party so it wasn't a lot of want a lot of money and and took to the point where they they actually paid you in like paychecks like we would get like paychecks on friday you know what i mean that's why one of the great things that robin did was he took me to the bank yeah he said this last time yeah i'm sorry but no no it wasn't but now i i couldn't believe it five thousand now we got more than that yeah i mean i can see why chris tucker never came back you know and and the but the thing was with with us was um you know we didn't you know we we got we got more than that but it wasn't a lot but they didn't have they didn't have an option for us for the next one because i guess they thought you know whatever you know ain't nothing i didn't know what happened with this [ __ ] or whatever so when the [ __ ] blew up when house party blew up and they came back to do a second one that's when we ganked them yeah and that's actually what what john witherspoon said as well he said for doing next friday he got like a million bucks or something something big like that that's when you gank them no i'm getting the multimedia i made a million dollars third friday okay but you know the irs all right that's gonna take all that money yeah they're waiting for you to come off stage that's when you get that's when you gank them because you have the leverage the you know house party you know yeah house party friday themselves are sizzling and now and they need you now so now you're like nah man the price not here the price is up here well uh bill cosby recently posted a vlad tv sinbad interview on his instagram which was actually conducted by lunel you know for for vlad tv but and he actually shouted out busy as well and it's really just kind of which i think is because of the you know me busy talked about this you know it's probably because of you know we we feature boosie so much on flat tv talking about defending bill cosby and everything else like that oh but it was it was really kind of crazy you know because bill cosby was up there with like michael jackson at his height in terms of just sheer popularity absolutely uh to have this man who i used to watch the cosby show every thursday night have a flag tv logo on his official instagram was really kind of he got all of that like that right i got to go back that was kind of crazy um you know what's his deal he getting out any time he's still he's not locked up in fact i heard that he's not showering because of covid he's not showering yeah he's scared to be in that type of oh that's not right because you gotta shower with everybody with everybody yeah around a bunch of other men who might be sick you know listen cosby gets sick at his age and his health he probably has a slim chance at that point yeah but they can't clear it out from or something you know what i'm saying like i don't think you can give someone special privileges like that i mean he's bill cosby outside those walls but in those walls he's prisoner two five seven three eight or whatever the number is yeah that's i mean yeah i mean it's just terrible the whole situation is just it really is it's just awful it really is what you [Laughter] oh my goodness well yeah well if he ever gets out you might get an exclusive maybe oh i would love to interview bill cosby come on come on get him by the drums oh yeah oh yeah uh you're big sports guy i am uh you actually had photoshopped a picture of your face on pat mahomes body you know what i mean do you i don't think you guys look similar do people really say you look similar i mean obviously yeah i i can show you something else that i posted if you if you put a picture of me in class in class act with my my uh twist and look i look just like him we look we look like we look like i saw the picture yeah i guess i mean i don't know why not yeah we're you know we're both light skinned we're both half-white half-black you know yeah you know and together we're both worth 500 million dollars mostly from him the two of us get the two of us together they're worth 500 500 million dollars and 30 cents [Music] yeah you're talking about this picture right here right yeah we don't look like this yeah i guess yeah you're right that picture there yeah i guess i guess a younger come on i feel like soldier boy you bit my whole [ __ ] flow worth the word blah blah blah back my homes right and you said uh we're gonna clap on him tom brady drake yeah yeah you know i'm like i said i had a homeboy in mine back in the days that they played for the kansas city chiefs that passed away derek thomas so i've always had a little vibe for kansas city we used to go there a lot to watch the games and watch him back in the day so it'd be nice to see him but um it's it's definitely impressive what what what tom brady did with a brand new team and everything like that i mean it went to a whole new team living the patriots and got to the super bowl again super bowl like that's like whoosh yeah that's like you know what i mean he makes he made you know the coach belichick look you know what i'm saying like he you know what i mean it's just yeah really yeah that's like when you break up with somebody and you know you gotta you gotta you got a new girl and she looking fine [Laughter] you know your girl your old girl is like like your old girl is big ice grilling you know what i'm saying you just like everybody ain't no partner well you're also a big knicks fan i am a knicks fan you said i don't care what brooklyn at nah you know um you know what the knicks are so bad you know i mean like it's like so i kind of i kind of shifted to the lakers because i'm a big lebron fan okay and the lakers are like you know actually good um but yeah i remember growing up big we were all big knicks fans and um and that's when the team was decent you know we were good we were fighting now we just been we've just been irrelevant for for the longest right freaking time so i just follow lebron around whatever whatever team lebron is on that's what i that's who i root for now right because the last time the knicks won a championship was the 1973 the year i was born the year 47 years ago i don't think there's anyone in that organization that remembers the knicks winning a champion no boy no yeah man we won in a long time like you know when when patrick ewing and charles oakley was playing like we were like contending you know we you know we we made it to the finals um you know we were kind of in it every year competing uh but but since then man we just whoo yeah carmelo great player yeah i mean yeah i love him as a person you know what i'm saying mello was dope you know la la everything you know and and you know what he was he was making a little noise there for a while but nah man we we suck well we've had some deaths uh since our last interview uh cicely tyson just passed away 94 right yeah you know my father passed when he was 91 um you before ass and um [Music] we know we should be so lucky like what what a what a wonderful life you know like everything she accomplished like 94 you know what i mean like i'd love to get that i don't think i'm getting nowhere closer than that remember too many white claws um but um if you could get 94 man yeah what i'm saying that's crazy um who else somebody else just died the other day uh well hank aaron died hank aaron yeah man um you know you'd love to get there you know with your with your marbles you know what i'm saying but it's crazier now more than ever i mean um especially with covid you know you got to protect these man you gotta bubble wrap these these og's man yeah i mean he had just gotten the vaccine i think yeah a lot of people are trying to tie those two together i mean yeah i mean depending on what you read and what you believe i heard excuse me they said it wasn't covered related no um but i mean i mean at that age who knows you know the flu the regular flu could kill you you know what i'm saying like a you know at that advanced age anything anything could get you no i mean in fact i think in norway it was announced that 23 people uh died after taking the vaccine and everyone's running with that story but if you actually read the story you'll see that all those people who died were like 100 years old it was all in this one you know uh yeah old folks home oh okay and these people were like 100 92 whatever so if there's any level of allergic reaction it's going to kill them so yeah i saw this documentary one time it was like national geographic something like that and they were um they wanted to find where the highest concentration of people that were over 100 years old or you know like super old people and they found it it was this little a little island part you know off off the coast of japan like one of these small japanese islands and there was this super concentration of people 100 like 100 100 208 and they went there to examine them you know talk to them all you know and they and they're not just sitting down they're doing [ __ ] they're working they hold you know and it's all about how it was all about diet all they do when they eating they eating fresh fish right out the sea unpolluted waters type [ __ ] stress-free we're all poor you know i mean there's no there's no stress there's no there's no striving to you know be the top dog or whatever like that and um you know and then they talk to them man they're sharp you know they're like 105 and she's like yeah i need me a young man she's chopping up fish and all kind of [ __ ] i'm like oh [ __ ] look at [ __ ] grandma she [ __ ] she's sucking the fish and talking i need a young man i'm like oh dead you know so that was and it just you know shows you what about about you know about diet and about stress in your life and you know they they're living they're they're obviously very very old but they still have quality of life and that's that that's the key the key is like you know i'd love to be around forever but you know i don't want to be a bump on a log and i don't want to be a burden um you know i still you know you want to have your marbles at least so you could you know i want to have energy to yeah get off my lawn well and then something that probably hits much closer to home is ecstasy from houdini who actually was the same age as you 56 you knew did i absolutely ecstasy was to be honest ecstasy was one of my my idols growing up um you know playing i would look at houdini and was like yo man we want to be like them like two dudes hard beats chicks love them you know what i'm saying that would that would be like yup that's that's what you're doing and and for me personally ecstasy you know had had that great voice and that's what i always tried to you know that get the big dynamite all up tight what's up [ __ ] not a [ __ ] you know what i mean i i come from that era where you know that melly mel or you know just that strong powerful voice and ecstasy had that you know what i'm saying um did we ever did we find out was it was it was it covert related do we don't think so i i'm not i mean it's a tragedy whatever we're obviously you know gone too soon um but um matter of fact i think we did a show with them like maybe like a couple years ago uh him and ja lil i think we had a show out in palm springs uh we we were we were opening for them you know as it should be and um yeah that's a loss but this this is where we're at now this you know we're losing you know i used to talk about it in my my stand-up act but it's it's it's true it's like back in the days we'd lose rappers because it was getting shot now we losing them just you know just old folk stuff like you know rappers are dying of gout you know what i'm saying yeah i mean i can't find a cause of death yeah i hadn't heard one myself that's why yeah the cause of death has not been determined what an artist man who's you and that's that's another thing i was telling somebody else the other day i was doing the interview and i talked about that the era of hip-hop where we came up one of the things that i really enjoyed was that all the groups had a really distinct sound like housing sounded like houdini yeah and krs sonic care rest and salt and pepper sound like salt and pepper and bismarck you know like very distinct now they all went together you know and and so that's the one thing i point to in terms of like comparing it to hip-hop today you know a lot of it sounds alike a lot of it sounds like like like one one kind of wave but you before there's a lot more of it there's like 100 times more yeah there is there is no no question but but but i'm still hearing i'm still hearing a lot of you know homogenization if you will i just remember you know that's a sonic sound like this and kidding play sound like that and big daddy kane sounded like this and and and you know like i just felt more um definition uh between uh between the groups you know like you know getting getting back to salt and pepper like some peppers sounded like so different you know what i'm saying and like i said i go that goes back to uh you know herbie teaching us how to how to rhyme a certain way you know before that everybody was like now herbie's teaching us like well how's that object you know it and there's my other sound i just show it you know like you get you know he's telling us how to do emotions within nobody was really doing that very few people were doing that yeah and you know it was almost like a conversational kind of rap especially if you had people going back and forth like salt and pepper like hit and play um but once again it just felt it just felt it felt different like all the different groups felt different when we were doing look we're on a show with hammer hammer sound like hammer you know what i'm saying nwa sound like mwa short sound like short you know i just i just felt like it was it was a little more defined and get off my lawn yeah man listen uh friends i think was oh my gosh one of the most profound hip-hop songs ever made that still resonate very much so of that however this is what 40 years later or so uh yeah you know friends one love one i was watching i was watching one love video the other day you know what i'm saying and what a smash hit that was but yeah friends friends smashes to this day i mean yeah how many of us have them yeah sorry if you're lost man i never got to meet him but i'm a great dude great dude and and and that's the thing man like it's one of those things like you know like what what what what does houdini do you know what i'm saying like what do you do what do you do like what you know what would god forbid you know what i'm saying like like you know what i'm saying me and play was calling each other up like yo you alright right you know what i'm saying like you know you just you realize like we're we're at that point now and um you know if we ever do come out of this uh pandemic you know we want to be able to you know see each other and perform with each other and perform for other people yeah but nothing nothing nothing's guaranteed it's not it's not ma'am so take care of yourself work out eat well keep your weight down yo you heard what you're what dr fauci said not what's that two men two masks were two masks you know i lost 20 pounds yo i was about to say yeah because the last time i said it too yeah you i've slimmed down all right i think you're done all right yeah no i cut my calories i started counting calories really uh yeah so i started doing stock exercising more start exercising a bit more but it's mostly diet that's really how you lose weight yeah when you like walk you like to walk around i have a treadmill and uh and a bike at home yeah you know yeah so yeah do pull-ups like you know yeah i try to listen man i'm 47 what did you cut out what did you cut out of the diet i didn't really cut anything out i just kept tracking my calories i started using an app uh called myfitnesspal and i just basically just wrote down every meal you know i'm saying and it tells you what it tells you how many calories it is yeah yeah and then you know you have 2 000 you know for me it's 2 000 calories a day is is what my limit is so at the point that i get close to 2000 i just stopped eating you know what i'm saying and then like what like mid-bite but that's really it man it's really like if you eat under a certain number of calories you will be guaranteed to lose weight if you eat over those calories you will continue to gain weight now you could offset it with uh with exercise so for example like when i exercise i write that down too in the same app so okay cool i burned 200 calories and they tell you what that they put that in so so you'll add that to the you know so if you have 2 000 calories and you burn 200 calories on treadmill now you have 2 200 calories that you could deal with that day so as long as you stay underneath that 2200 you'll be cool if you do 3 000 then you're going to get fat and you know you do that i mean i've been doing it for like six months i've lost 20 pounds dude it's just from the last time i saw you i was i was gonna i was gonna say but i thought i said didn't i say that last year no no i've lost more weight since last time yeah man listen uh at the point that i learned that covid mortality was tied to your weight that obese people will be much more likely to die from covid i said i have no more excuses for being this way now i wasn't really fat or anything but i was somewhat overweight and i said okay i'm trying to stay alive so let me go ahead and lose weight and let me tell you two people that i've interviewed died from covid one was a older man named frank colada he was this gangster out of vegas he already had breathing problems when we were even doing the interview we did his last interview before he passed he was i think in his 80s or something old breathing problems that part you can kind of yeah you know you would think that's probably what's going to happen with a man in that condition but the other person who died was fred the godsend who was like 34 but was very obese very obese had a huge belly like you know and i think he had diabetes and some other issues to go along with that weight so i said all right if this man younger than me who's overweight has died from catching it i am going to make sure that i am alive to to do this man man oh yeah you don't want no parts of that don't want no parts of that kid man appreciate you coming in again for the third time glad you're doing well glad you're healthy ken blaze with the big gold rope uh stop it until next time peace
