00:00David Rizzo, the end.
00:01The end.
00:02No.
00:03No, it was, oh, yeah, yeah, people got mad at me for that.
00:06Yeah, I don't know.
00:09Is that probably why you had a lot of trouble with the record label?
00:14With my record label?
00:16Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:17Hey, man, you know.
00:19Probably, but, you know, I can neither confirm nor deny that.
00:24What's up, Shelly?
00:24Yeah, how you doing?
00:26Yeah, um, booyah.
00:28Yeah, of course, Carson's finest, booyah, try.
00:31Um, yeah, man, you know, I don't know.
00:33Like, some of my friends in this industry have said, nature to threat, shield your faith.
00:40You know what I'm saying?
00:41I don't know, because I wasn't in that room if a decision was made.
00:47They just did it.
00:48Yeah, yeah.
00:49I know that my company is just marketing as well or whatever, buddy.
00:53You know, it was still fun.
00:55Yo, yo.
00:56So, yeah, you know, at the end of the day, um, nobody, people can only slow you up, but
01:03they can't stop you from doing whatever you're supposed to do, so I always look at it like
01:06that, you know?
01:08You know, uh, whatever.
01:09So, have you ever thought, like, the pressure of maybe trying to be more commercial because
01:15of being probably blackballed because of making those type of songs?
01:20There was nothing I was going to do if you blackballed, what was I going to do, like, to un
01:25-people?
01:26I mean, you know, I try to explain that to people, like, I'm not Kaepernick before Kaepernick.
01:32You know what I'm saying?
01:33Yeah.
01:33He still wasn't able to play.
01:36All that shit, it didn't matter what he did.
01:39He could go train and work down and throw the pool off hard.
01:42If they got it out for you, then they don't put up there.
01:45That's my brother.
01:46You know what I'm saying?
01:46Sure.
01:47We live in a system where somebody kind of controls what you see.
01:54The algorithm, you can blame it on the magical algorithm.
01:57It's probably one white boy that's saying, I like that or I don't like that.
02:00Let's get real.
02:01Look at this little shit.
02:03It's about torture shit on YouTube.
02:05Right now, they can make it so viral, bro.
02:08Stop it.
02:09Stop it.
02:10Everybody can be talking all this magical bullshit.
02:12It ain't no...
02:13The algorithm is fucking power.
02:15Money.
02:16And a white nigga that owns it.
02:17Whoever owns it is going to decide who he is, bro.
02:19That's my life for her.
02:20Whoever owns it decides who he is, period.
02:24So if we don't own our industry, if we don't own the music industry,
02:28how can we really decide who gets a chance to be heard?
02:32Who do...
02:32We don't even own B.E.P.
02:34So how do we decide what artists are going to perform on B.E.P.?
02:38Yeah.
02:39Black entertainment is not owned by black people.
02:42Yeah.
02:43True that.
02:44True that.
02:45True that part.
02:46Yeah, I think a lot of things need to be decentralized at this moment.
02:51Well, I mean, I always just...
02:54I just say it like this.
02:57I'm going to give a comparison.
03:00And...
03:01You know, I'm...
03:02Yeah, fuck it.
03:04So...
03:04It's Amber 25th, and I thought the birth of Christ was Saturday night.
