high desert i think in 2000 2001 yeah so i was there for 11 years yeah in high desert whoa yeah high desert was yeah it's like a lot of people want to talk about the pelican bay all that because all the big homies are there like that's the most violent prison and i tell people on social media i'm not trying to glorify prison you know and i'm not saying high desert's the worst of it all i'm just saying how it is you know what i experienced what i seen
You know, like just in that five-year thing, I've seen so many, like that attached me.
I've seen somebody get fucking butchered and killed over a pouch of tobacco because a guy was late on paying them.
Just stupid shit like that, you know.
And it was just like, man, what the hell am I getting into, you know.
Like I said, I wasn't scared.
You know, I was just curious, like what do I need to do to stay alive, you know.
Right.
My mom, every once in a while, she would come see me.
When I was in the hole, they hid me from her for like 15 months.
She didn't know if I was dead, where I was at, or anything like that.
My cell, he kept putting in paperwork, like lawsuits.
And that was, that wasn't making things better.
You know, when you start pushing on them, they're going to push back.
And so she didn't know what the fuck was going on.
So she ended up sending like some, I think it was called a buzzman on buzzman or something.
He's a kind of like a investigator for CEOs and stuff.
He's a guy that keeps everybody in line or some shit.
So he goes back there.
