Hey, you know what I'm saying?

Update me.

And, hopefully, New York Times bestselling author.

Some of my questions is a little, they leave a lot of room to breathe, so you can answer.

You can be as long winded as you want to be.

Great book.

Everybody read the book?

Yeah, I went cover to cover in two days.

Easy.

Great read.

It's one of those books that you can see as you read it.

But I wanted to start off selfishly.

One of my favorite albums is So Help Me God.

You got some songs on there like 55 Times, South Side Hoes, They Wait For You To Die.

And those themes kind of parlay into longer versions and some themes throughout this book.

You talk about coming from a lineage of hustlers, both in business and in the street, so that allowed you to inherit some business acumen and business savvy, but also inherit some unfortunate circumstances, such as experiencing two drug raids before the age of 13.

What is it like to be in a situation where the walls have officially closed in, and what's some of the opposite feelings that you've experienced in business on a positive note?

Well, in respect to the drug raids, like, they officially closed in.

Well, to compare the opposite of that feeling, that feeling of freezing, that feeling of your foundation shaking with some highlights of business and just in your career that you experienced that's on the opposite end of that spectrum.

Absolutely.
