00:00When this time came about from my end, Spike had put me on to what they were doing.

00:04We ended up exchanging some records and then shit, the rest just became history.

00:08We ended up being in the studio.

00:09They dropped him off one day and I ain't not seen him since.

00:12You see what I'm saying?

00:13It's been my dog right here, bruh.

00:14West Coast.

00:15Uh-huh.

00:16Definition of West Coast.

00:17If you know, you know.

00:18Problem is the guy behind a lot of it and that's a blessing.

00:21So I let myself get produced, you know?

00:23It's crazy.

00:24Manifestation.

00:25I seen it happening and it happened.

00:30We did a hotel party on the first day with the fourth record we did that day.

00:38It was just trying to change the energy.

00:39I was in my Jason Martin mode.

00:41It was time to go to Problem.

00:42This was our first day.

00:43He just, you know, he needed a break.

00:44Like, let me go outside, smoke a cigarette.

00:45He was outside chopping up.

00:46He was like, man, you start this one.

00:48Because, you know, he was doing all the rapping.

00:49So me and my boy Corey got together, put together the beat and he came back and I had a verse.

00:55It reminded me of Problem.

00:57Problem type vibe, you know?

01:00Jason Martin's a little more mature, different ears, different, different type, trying different

01:05things.

01:06Problem reminds me of the Mollywood tape.

01:07He walked in like, there he go.

01:09Yeah.

01:10He like, Jason Martin's cool, but fuck that.

01:12I need Problem right now.

01:14So it was, you know, it was a good time.

01:16And then we just kept going back and forth.

01:18You know what I'm saying?

01:19We was like, man, we just gonna have a good ass time.

01:21Because everything else, because it was the first day, it was so serious.

01:23And we finished it.

01:24Yeah.

01:25We knocked it out.

01:26And then the next day, cause we, you know what I'm saying?

01:27We was taking shots, having a good time.

01:28Next day, we heard it.

01:29We were like, oh, this shit going crazy.

01:30And the solo was like, no, that's the one.

01:32That's the one.

01:33The real jewelry is important to me because I've been in jail the majority of my life.

01:57I deserve it.

01:58I work hard for it.

01:59And you know, I've been through a lot.

02:01So I see myself wearing that when I was in jail.

02:03So I'ma show it off.

02:04I never had shit in my whole life.

02:06It's a blessing.

02:07And then OTR blessed me with some chains, 200,000 in chains, 70,000 in my mouth.

02:12I busted down my whole family.

02:14I like jewelry.

02:15It's just stuff I own, you know, but I want to start giving back to my community.

02:18It's not about money and about me no more.

02:20It's deeper than that.

02:21I want to start helping the kids out.

02:22Fuck a bitch in her Toyota.

02:24Gun play stupid.

02:25You will never see me sober.

02:26That line, you will never see me sober, is real to me because my cousin just passed away.

02:32You know, he overdosed.

02:33My best friend got smoked.

02:34My other best friend got killed.

02:36So that's how I used to cope with the pain with the drugs, you know?

02:39It would just help me and became addicted.

02:42And a little bit slowly, I'm dealing with it, but that's how I deal with my pain.

02:47Being so institutionalized and getting so much fame so quick, it's kind of hard to deal with that.

02:52It happened so fast for me.

02:54It's 100 miles an hour, but that's how I cope with it.

02:57When I want to get sober, I will get sober.

02:59It should be my decision.

03:00I'll figure that out when God wants me to.

03:06In actuality, I was talking about my dick, because I don't really have an ego in that

03:13sense.

03:14I outwork everybody, man.

03:15I'm Kobe.

03:16So I'm in the gym.

03:17I'm in the gym more than people.

03:18So that's where any confidence I have lies from.

03:20It's not because I feel like I'm better because I know I put in a whole lot more hours

03:24than everybody.

03:25But yeah, I was literally talking about my love muscle, aka my life maker.

03:29Beyonce called it the ego first, so shout out to Faye.

03:32I'm kidding it.

03:33Since Centennial.

03:34Rego or illegal.

03:35Same nigga Lamar and motherfucking Rego.

03:37Centennial High School, man.

03:38Compton.

03:39Beautiful place.

03:40They used to call me Bobby's World.

03:41I had this big head and these big feet when I was like 5'1", 5'2".

03:45I was playing basketball all day.

03:46That's all I wanted to do all day.

03:48But I always kept some chili.

03:50I always was running some type of play.

03:52Me and my brother Nick, we be playing cards.

03:53I make him be the dealer or whatever.

03:55We be running it up.

03:56He casting me the right shit for the blackjack.

03:58Selling candy, selling shoes.

04:00You know what I'm saying?

04:01Whatever.

04:02Shooting dice.

04:03We've always been on that since like 13.

04:13Every day my program kind of go like this.

04:15Wake up, 5 in the morning, talk to John in New York.

04:18Publishing, other catalog shit, all that.

04:216, looking at ESPN.

04:23Probably text moms.

04:24Waiting for all these LA motherfuckers to get up.

04:26Cause motherfuckers don't get up till 2.

04:288, go get my coffee.

04:29Try to walk about a mile and a half.

04:31Be at the studio by 9.

04:33Mike McKee's probably going to beat me there.

04:35So I'm hearing loud ass beats and clouds of smoke the minute I'm walking in.

04:39Then AC's buff ass going to walk in and try to maybe do 40 pushups.

04:43This is all before 10.

04:44They probably already got three beats waiting for me to try ideas.

04:47So probably before 12, I done cut a few records.

04:49Did some pushups, lightweight workout.

04:51And so then the West Coast artists and producers pretty get around too.

04:55Start working with them.

04:59Yeah, them Hollywood days was crazy.

05:01Shit.

05:02For real, for real.

05:03Super crazy.

05:04You know how everybody be like, man, that was the worst time.

05:07I was so bad.

05:08I love that shit.

05:09I'm sorry I'm not here to promote drugs or anything.

05:11But I had a fucking blast.

05:12Would I do it again?

05:13No.

05:14But them days were crazy, bro.

05:15They made me who I am.

05:16So it was fun to like joke back there real quick.

05:19You know what I'm saying?

05:20I think a lot of people think because I changed my name and I changed my game.

05:24That's not really it.

05:25I'm just, I'm more with organized confusion these days.

05:28If that make any sense.

05:29Rooftop chotch kept me fucking in the corner.

05:31If you know, been to Roosevelt Hotel.

05:32You got the suite.

05:33Got the upstairs, downstairs.

05:34In these little corners.

05:36I used to be like, hey, no chains on, no shirt.

05:38Walking around, feeling the vibe.

05:39And ladies always like bad guys.

05:41I don't know why.

05:42It's they fuck.

05:43So that's why we keep being bad.

05:44So I was just trying to be the baddest bad guy that night.

05:47And I remember getting caught making lust for some woman in the corner.

05:51Somebody tapped me and they knew I was doing it because they told me, you know, I was the blackout days.

06:00You know, when you saying all this crazy shit, people just assume like, oh, it's always going to be great.

06:04We rarely like to talk about the other side.

06:06Through the grace of God, I definitely could afford to handle some of my mistakes where they didn't get allowed.

06:11I just wanted to make sure that I pointed that out.

06:13I was making mistakes.

06:15I talked to my kids very transparent.

06:16Like they weren't supposed to be here.

06:18But God gave them to me and I could afford what happened when that came.

06:22I did have a child during the lifestyle when I was turnt up and going up.

06:26And you know, my baby Jordan here right now.

06:28So it's going up.

06:29Shit got real.

06:30You know what I'm saying?

06:37I feel like I'm the best Latino rapper.

06:39I should look the best, you know?

06:40I feel like I'm the best in the game right now.

06:42I'm the hottest.

06:43I got the most motion.

06:44You got the hottest, you gotta have the biggest chain.

06:46You gotta have the nicest car.

06:47It gotta add up, you know?

06:49It's just the look.

06:50First impressions is everything.

06:56Wake up in the morning.

06:57I turn and you don't even remember who that is.

06:59Grab my chains right away.

07:01Make sure they're still on my neck.
