03:44you left.

03:47So if I don't go to message requests, I won't see it.
03:50You know what I mean?
03:50I mean, because we follow each other.
03:54What's the word, though?
03:56Oh, not too much, man.
03:58It's just...
03:59No, so what up?
04:01Hey, you gag, gag.
04:02My bad.
04:03Yeah, yeah.
04:03It's just one of the sides for me.
04:06Because we're, like, eight hours ahead of you guys.
04:10So, yeah.
04:12That's what's up.
04:13But anyway, just introduce yourself, my brother, to, you know, the young kids that are probably
04:21going to be watching.
04:22I go by the name of Rusty Jooks.
04:25You know what I'm saying?
04:26I'm an internationally known hip-hop artist, man.
04:31World-renowned.
04:32You ain't got to ask around.
04:34I represent the boot camp clique.
04:37You know what I'm saying?
04:39The protege is Sean Price.
04:41Word.
04:42Sean lives on.
04:44For sure.
04:44For sure.
04:45So what would you say, like, really caught you into rap music?
04:50Just, I fell in love with the music when I first heard it.
04:53You know what I mean?
04:54As soon as I was introduced to it, that was it.
05:01Word, word, word.
05:02So how would you say, like, I mean, your first track, you did it with, like, Helter Skelter.
05:09How would you say was that experience like?
05:12When I got to meet them, it was crazy, man, because I was already a big fan.
05:17You know what I'm saying?
05:18I was a big fan of boot camp.
05:20From, you know, Buckshot's first, from the Into the Stage album to The Shining, to Helter Skelter.
05:27I met them when they was working on the second album.
05:30You know, my manager is Rock's cousin.
05:33So he's the one that brought me over to them and was like, yo, listen to my man.
05:37Well, actually, he brought Sean Price around my way.
05:41And that's how I met Sean like that.
05:43And, you know, I spit for him.
05:44And, you know what I mean?
05:46It was a rap after that, man.
05:48We, you know, that was my big bro right there.
05:52That's dope.
05:53That's dope.
05:54So, Auchi, describe the moment when you did your first album.
06:00Was it Destructible?
06:02And Sean Price was the one who did it, right?
06:05Right, right, right.
06:07He's the one that pulled all the strings and got that whole thing together.
06:11You know what I mean?
06:12And, you know, spoke with Drew High and Buck.
06:15And, you know, they was just like, let's go.
06:17And so, you know, I just thought I was so excited.
06:20I was, it was only MySpace at that time.
06:23So, I was just hitting up producers, you know, on my MySpace.
06:26Like, yo, send me Beasts.
06:28You know what I mean?
06:28So, that's how I was getting the majority of the tracks.
06:31You know what I'm saying?
06:32And it came out, you know, that's a legendary joint right there.
06:37Well, yeah, yeah.
06:38I was bumping in, like, you know, a couple of years ago also.
06:44But, like, you know, because, like, me, I'm still young.
06:46So, like, you guys came, like, way back.
06:49Yeah, that was 98.
06:51Yeah.
06:52So, like, I was, yeah.

07:08My, my, my, that Indestructible dropped in 2008.
07:11Yeah.
07:12The first one.
07:14So, like, how was, how was that, um, uh, the whole experience, like, being part of that
07:20music and also being part of the bootcamp club?
07:25Yo, it's a blessing, man.
07:27I'm, I'm glad that I'm still here and, um, creating dope shit that the fans want to hear.
07:32You know what I'm saying?
07:33And, um, you know, I'm just blessed, man.
07:37Word.
07:37Word.
07:38So, what would you say are, like, the, the, the most valuable lessons that you learned
07:43from Sean?
07:45The most valuable lesson that I learned from him?
07:48Yeah.
07:50Um, I don't know if I can put, I don't, it was a few things, man.
07:54You know, just, especially about the, with, with the business, with life.
07:57You know what I'm saying?
07:58I learned a lot from him, man.
07:59So, I can't even say just one, but, um, you know, my, my hustle, you know what I mean?
08:05The way I be hustling and, um, getting, getting money in this hip hop shit.
08:08It was definitely, I learned that from Sean.
08:10Cause he, he know a lot of different ways to give money.
08:13You know what I mean?
08:14And I, I used to see that shit and I was like, oh shit.
08:17So, you know, I, I, you know, adopted that same shit and I'm just became a beast with it.
08:24Word.
08:24Word.
08:25Plus, I mean, like in, in, uh, a couple of years later, right?
08:29You, you did a, a collaboration with, with Marco Polo, right?
08:35Yup.
08:36Yup.
08:36That was 2010.
08:37That one drop.
08:39That's a classic album too, right there.
08:41Word.
08:41That's one of my best.
08:42That's one of my best.
08:44How was that like, you know, and, and describe to us.
08:47That was dope, man.
08:48Me, we were supposed to be working on one, on one song or something like that.
08:52And I was supposed to just do a verse on, um, a project that he was working on.
08:56Uh, and then, you know, he gave me like a, uh, CD full of, full of, I think it was
09:01like
09:01eight beats and I just wrote songs to all of them shits.
09:04And when I came back, I, we recorded it at his crib and then he was like, yo, we might
09:09as well just make it an album.
09:11I was, you know, we kept doing joints.
09:14Dope, dope, dope.
09:15Plus, I mean, like you also did, uh, what's this, um.
09:19What was this, dog?
09:21The King, was, was it the, uh, the James Brown one?
09:24Like the other, the underground criminal object, the James Brown.
09:27James Brown, close his door.
09:29Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
09:30Yeah, James Brown of the underground.
09:32Yeah, James Brown of the underground.
09:34So, so, what, what would you say inspired you to, to, to make the title of that album?
09:39Like, what?
09:39Yo, I think it was a fan, I think it was a fan that, that, um, initially said that to
09:44me one time, like put that in my comments or something.
09:46Um, and I was like, yo, that's L, cause, you know, you know, I'm, I'm, I'm, I mean,
09:51I'm the collab king, you know what I'm saying?
09:53I'm always, if you don't hear a new song from me, you hear a song I'm, I'm, um, featured
09:57on, you know what I'm saying?
09:58So, and I'm just doing all type of other shit, you know what I'm saying?
10:02So, James Brown of the underground really fits.
10:05So, I was like, yo, no, I'm gonna make an album about that, you know, I mean, title the
10:09album that, and, um, run with that concept and shit, man.
10:12And that shit was, that, that was dope, man.
10:15That song produced by Amadeus 360, the Big King, you know what I mean?
10:19He's from Brooklyn too.
10:21Yeah, yeah, I was also playing it like a couple of days here on, on, on Instagram.
10:26Yeah, we got videos for like a few of them joints.
10:29I think like four or five, um, songs.
10:31Yeah, cause I think, I think the one I was playing was the one where you featured rock,
10:36I think.
10:38Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:40Yeah, that's, um, Sean VSOP, dedicated to Sean P, yep.
10:44Wow, like, the classics, the classics, the classics, the classics.
10:49Hell yeah.
10:50I mean, considering the fact that you said that you, um, you were influenced by, by Sean P,
10:58and, you know, he guided you and stuff, what, what would you say, um, you'd like to teach
11:04the youth and, and what are, what are, what are practical things that you're planning on?
11:08I would, I would definitely, um, without, what I usually say, um, when I get, um, when
11:14somebody asks me something like that, I've just, you know, independence, I mean, you know,
11:19it's not wrong with, you know, artists want to be signed to major labels and everything,
11:22but if you're doing, if you're going to independent route, definitely invest in yourself and, um,
11:28um, you know what I mean, just, um, keep, just grind harder, harder than anybody you ever
11:33known, you know what I'm saying, and always believe in yourself and, um, eventually it's
11:39going to pop off.
11:40If you got good music and your drive is crazy, come on, man, you can't lose.
11:45It's only, the only way you're going is up.
11:49Word, word, word, word.
11:50So, I mean, in the legend that you are with, with so many albums that you created, which
11:56one would you say, like, was your favorite?
11:58I couldn't even tell you, I couldn't, yo, every time somebody, yo, I got, I think it's
12:03like, um, close to 20, I forgot how many albums, but that's, I can't even, I don't know, man,
12:10because every time I drop a new one, I feel like that's my, that's the one, you know what
12:14I mean?
12:15Then another one comes, be like, nah, it's this album.
12:17So, I don't even know.
12:20Yeah, I mean, I would just, I would just advise people to, you know what I mean, look me
12:24up on iTunes, Tidal, and all them other streaming, um, joints, and, um, you know, decide for
12:30yourself.
12:32Yeah.
