22 minute mark..


"They had either been shot or shot someone. They were either stick up kids, dealers or hustlers. Nowadays they all look and act like boy bands. They look like rapping NSyncs. The guys that did music used to be the tough guys in the neighborhood"


Talking about how he knew Scott La Rock and was cool with him before he died...

Mike is right.

I remember Mob Style from Harlem back then. These cats were actually hustling and rapping at the same time. They'd have guns in the video, and show all their product and all that. It's wild to think about today, but back then, dudes were actual felons makin' records. Today, it's just entertainment.

But that might actually be a good thing. You can't be that reckless anymore. Especially with how crazy Hip Hip is on the world's radar. You'd be locked in a week!
