last things became the place where my dream i felt like my dream could be realized and i would like to stay here. i was 27 when i came here. i was inside me and my girlfriend we had a we had a place together so i was ok and have to really she was paying to have to live so we were inside for 3 years.

i met on the street here using i got off the gallery down to drinking beer but her liver had already ran its course she need she didn't want to get on the liver transplant so. she died from so most of the liver and the title. and write songs is juiced me based on something that i'm experienced or something that's happened to me that's when the blues you know when it comes from within i mean gospel. army booze country. they all have. they all tell stories. when i hear the last thing i. read that. put them.

as far as the streets well you never know what's going to happen in a day in a week just how things go you know there's not just. here is everywhere is like wildfire in a los angeles can. you just look right across the street a couple of blocks read that was a whole nother game it does not get along with decide over here. and we have real history right here is how the games are broke and then you have. basically 3 different types of gangs actively going on now you have a crips was most of them don't get along you have the power was was their star now not to get a loan or write a you have because you on the west side of compton and this is track meet clark which is the park i'm standing there right now and the t p c c group are counting room. with us it's never right and that's where bam in ca and my rapper dog man in the. hallway some type of big

me going i want to kind of to keep everything that i was never like peace between businesses and the neighbors and the neighborhoods and the schools and the budgets and the polies department everything was going to go back to some great to have some to study and some obvious to tell it got dropped the talent would have been let it come out polies was kicking my dang it was basically kicked against as. we needed to speak out against. gangsta rap for me you know i'm saying. was a cry for attention like you know this is what's going on over here we don't bring lights it is we don't make make sure that you guys know he's gone if you make us a. whole. second this is part of the steve. i cannot talk to you right now i'm on i'm on camera i would speak to you about 1015

minutes in the head with that. ok. a business call. more work. more gigs more excitement. this is how i live. in. harlem some place for you where you go to find jazz and blues and r. and b.

. you find that you also find the punk energy. you can live your life very safely and. or you can be loud. very very. and you can find other people who enjoy that same ball.

the main a motion. that i feel for the city is constant motion constant velocity everything moves all at once and. sometimes it works sometimes we get in each of those way but there are like over like 8000000 of us in this city so we get along as best we can sometimes we don't but this is the excitement of the chaos that i live in this is what fuels by music this is what fuels me i like the noise don't ask me why i was born here i like the

noise with us j.s. of a rock n roll or. this is what i have just what i. want. i perform. where of the work is i've enjoyed performing with the people or sometimes you get lucky sometimes you don't this is. on wall street this is rotten .

for our. systems. for our friends for a jury to see a problem less serious problem started to. come to tears for those who just came out of one of those almost at. least.

he. pleased. to. sleep. he. ceased sleeping. pills. and. a lot of us started what the spirituals because the spirituals during the days of slavery. work means of communication for. the slaves to communicate to each other about what was getting ready to happen like steal away steal away steal away to jesus they were getting ready to date they used the songs during the underground railroad to communicate with each other they were singing they were not allowed to read the bibles. and they were fleeing from

from the south to the north and spirituals choir sing them but there they really have a message if you listen to. the it. was.

the minister gets up to preach there should be nothing for him to do but to give the word and as the levites used to prepare the music and with the harps and the flute they prepared the way for the for the for the message to be given and church music to me does the same when you don't have hope you know the song this is you know i need the every hour. and it's kind of like a prayer because you it just helps you remember all the things that he's brought you. because especially during times of sadness people or they don't have money. and sometimes you just need that song and sometimes it's not a docile song though it just may be a song just hearing joy to the world the lord has come and then now and then

there's another version of there is joy to the world. the gospel just takes a different different twist to a song that we all know but it gives people hope i think that gospel music gives you hope it gives you peace and it gives you joy you know the young people they have a different beat you know. but they have a different be and so that when they come out with a new song feel the same for. everything . from grace to read. it had to happen. had to happen there was it was inevitable we call against right now but it was actually story corps reality rare

perfect example so easy illiterates he said woke. about knowing just had to be caught and so got to get drunk before my day begins before my mama start bitching about my friends basic you understand everything i'm saying right here my reality is simple compton born and raised. fatherless child you know also my father died when i was a baby mama was a crackie a 4 minute we all have our stories i had to earn my respect in the streets in order to just survive in kind of it was it was more of a necessity to say which you had to say like leaves you know say i like the batterer you know sam i don't mean you know saying these are words that people understand where we come from so when you put that in a song that's what everybody will gravitate to. no team no crowd. no shots.

no forests. which your thirst for action. there was a clip of she will know yesterday stuart. but to my it's always at the k. it was a little rule moment i delete. like not so. immediate . they can put us in the mood at the corner to the. smithsonian national at the capital. city the. yes. the. yes fuck.

out of people don't know what's go i know they don't know what it's like for us over here you don't know what kind of horde it is just told me. we're african music is coming from the soul. african-americans have struggled from the beginning that's not a gimmick it's like only you know it's real what do you feel. my people who struggled with. you know blues came from the cotton fields i mean so those people had a lot of. what i say. you know a lot of grievances you know not be in. people to do what they want to.

and not being free new york does sound like different from texas different from chicago new york has this stuff i try to make mine stand out different from all you know still have the blues feel but different. turn. so the plan in the subways by. 2013 there were 24 different systems. of fire yet they're planning to start work. every day. monday through saturday i might say go one day playing this out way.

number one number was. it was. all those. dollars. was a made of. dollars. dollar a dollar is what i. won though i mean more than this might be the turn the. whole was do add up i guess outside and then. since when is and then. old are you margaret. governess. american music is largely african. we got carried away here we care the music with us. the real heart because the bomb goes was we don't have a lot of money. you know that. good that noise is that music and sounding.

that's the heartbeat of our student. us. not the politicians not the rich real the heart of what we do is the truth. it's not about money. it's the color of nature not the color of money. one of the really yorker we've got you want a real musician you've got your real human being.

a no one in the english culture we have to die broaden their view sometimes how we use our words and how they use their words of the system that we live in now you know this is all word play and old action. likely argument list tasteful plus when you see this plus he's to throw bostic and at long last that result. oh gosh that just sort of got to number in the series and then he got beat it so funny to get crow in a box that's the thing but that's the sequence. i don't put the people on the city slicker i don't put anything down and up. when they come out from but they don't jump the gun trying to avoid the sights setting the make a difference you get a rap sheet on a conference office you know we quiz. him rapping we go over after our car the bar is hardly a bill by our what you seen around there's nothing about not. taking seems to be
