Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
I mean, I just think that he deserves it. You know what I mean? When you've done nothing but win, like Nick's been the coach for decades. we've been to two Super Bowls in three years. You know what I mean? And you gotta understand, when you go back to the week, when we was two and two, when you go back to week four, they was talking about, we need a new coach, man. Think about that.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
They try to throw that man in jail and hurts in the grave and throw dirt on their asses so many times. But Nick just keep popping up out there. You whack the dirt off him in jail. You know what I'm saying? Man, after win, after win, after win. So when you got somebody like that, man, you got to reward them. You know what I mean? I agree. Just like, you know, he's going to get rewarded.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
You're going to get rewarded. We got great players they deserve and great coaches and everything. And one thing about that people don't speak on, right? Every year since college, Jalen Hurts had a different offensive coordinator. Yeah. Imagine how difficult that is playing a quarterback. You were safety. If you had a different defensive coordinator every year.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
I mean, it's... Wouldn't that be kind of... It gets weird.

Right.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
During high school, college, or the pros, did any of y'all suffer because... of thinking? Like the playbook come out and the playbook's new and you're more thinking than reacting because you're thinking about what you got to do instead of just playing football. Did that ever occur?
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Damn, that's so crazy. He was so good, I don't even remember that. I don't even remember him not playing. I'm like, when did you struggle? Since you came in, you was locked down.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
You were at Shador's draft party? Yes, I was at Shador's draft party. It was... unbelievably unfair. Do you know? But what was even crazier is the way that that kid handled it when he got drafted. Because it could have been easy to be, oh, the angry black man. I got done wrong. I was railroaded. Oh, I finally got picked.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
No, that man got picked. He was dancing like he wasn't the first round. And that was impressive. And that just lets you know that the kid has a solid foundation. And he has some really, really great parents. Like my guy over here. No doubt. Some really great parents. Tell my cousins I said what's up, man. Oh, yeah, you met him. Yes, I met him in the Super Bowl.

And that was the only dream I ever had. I never grew up rapping.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
I didn't even listen to rap music like that. I mean, unless it was on the radio. Because I didn't have cable TV growing up. So I never seen rap videos. I never, you know what I mean? I grew up poor. So... I come home from school, man, I pick that basketball up, I go to the court. You know what I'm saying? I played in all the leagues around the city, you know, things like that.

And everybody like, oh, because they know me from playing basketball. They don't know me from rapping. And then I start rapping. And after every line, they like, oh, oh. And then when I get done, like, they like, oh. Rap again. I'm like, oh, no, I ain't got no more raps. I only got one rap. They're like, man, that ain't shit. How are you that nice? You only got one rap.

He set up studio time, and the third song I ever did in my life was number one on the countdown on Power 99 here in Philly. That's back in the day when the radio meant everything.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
The third song I ever did in my life was number one on the radio. So it was like number two, Destiny's Child, and number one, Raggedy Kid from North Philly. That's insane. Insane. That is wild. You got to understand, like, I start rapping in...

Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3

And it was kind of the same thing with the podcast. And we filmed everybody from Mike Tyson to Floyd Mayweather to Little Dirk to Miguel to Young Thug to... You name everybody.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Ooh. He might do it, though. He might, yeah. I don't know why he wouldn't. Like, one thing I told Nick when I seen him, I said, Nick, man, don't you ever not be you, man. You embody the Philadelphia spirit. When you turned around and you told that fan.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
You've been a longtime Eagles fan? Missed three games in my whole life that I can remember.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
I can't really pick an all-time favorite, man. Like, you got to understand, man, we had some great Eagles, man, from Reggie White, rest in peace to Jerome Brown, to Clyde Simmons, to, man, Deuce Daly, Terrell Owens, Donovan McNabb. Man, we had some real, some real great players, man. So to just, you know what I mean?
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Brian Westbrook, you know, man, if I had to pick one, just one of the greatest players ever, it would have to be Jalen Hurts. I mean, the kid's been to two Super Bowls in three years. No other player has done that for Philadelphia.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
And then if I would have to, you know, put in the top ten, you definitely got to put, like, Lane Johnson in there, man. He's the greatest, you know, probably the greatest eagle of all time. Like, not just, like, tackle. No, he's probably the greatest eagle of all time. Wow. Lane Johnson? Yes. Yeah. You know what I mean? I agree. You're never going to say that about an offensive lineman. Right.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
He's a monster. That's insane, though. You know what I mean? Like, come on, man.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Oh, top three moments all time as an Eagles fan. Deshaun Jackson running the punt back on the New York Giants. That was, like, unbelievable. Then he ran, and then he didn't go to the end zone. He ran around.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Without a doubt, man. Cooper, Dejon in the Super Bowl, getting that interception, man. And I got to say, without a doubt, Brandon Graham strip-sacking Tom Brady to seal that first Super Bowl, man. That was just unbelievable. I'm honored. Appreciate it. Yeah, because when you got the interception, it was like, okay. they might not have a shot today. It might be almost over, like, at this point.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3

Zach Bond. Oh, yeah. Oh, my God. And shout out to the bald eagle. Oh, my God. Because I pulled you to the side at the end of the year. And, bro, I begged you. I said, I'll give you some money this year. I begged you. I said, whatever they don't get, I try to come up with. Please don't leave. And he stayed. So I love Zach Bond, man, for that, man.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
And I'm just a person that think when you get to a place and you thrive in that place, that's where you should be. You know what I mean? He didn't thrive in other places he was at. He came right here and for some reason we understood who he was as a football player and what he could be. And he thrived, man. I just think to come here, be that great, and then to leave to go somewhere else and try to
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
I didn't want to see him do that, man. No, no.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3

Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
What did he text you? I was a little frustrated after the game.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
But let me just ask you a question, though. At the time, was you lying? Was you just trying to massage his ego? No, I was trying to get. You're like, you got three more weeks of this. You'll be out of the job, buddy. I'm just trying to give him confidence, man, you know? Yeah, but sometimes confidence is to tell the truth, right? You can't be getting routed up like that, man.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
You're like, God, no, you're fine. You're cool. Don't worry about it. He's home like that. It was terrible. We worked all game. And then he's in his 12th year, but that's a lot of experience, man. Yeah. And you might have needed to see that for later on in the year. Yeah. But that was the only one that routed you up, though, that I can remember. Yeah. He did work me, though. He worked me.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Because you go from being on the high horse, oh, number one team in the NFL, to like, now we like the seventh best team. Yeah.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Man. But that's how crazy the league is. You start off 2-1-2, we ain't out. Next thing you know, we win. Yeah. You start off 10-2, next thing you know, you lose. Yeah, yeah. That's how you respond. Every week you got to be mentally right, man.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Man, appreciate y'all, man. Hey, listen, I want to wish y'all health, wealth, a great year, and I already know you'll be a Pro Bowler this year. I know you'll be a Pro Bowler this year, but I also know you won't be at the game because we'll be in the Super Bowl. E-A-G-L-E-S-E. Yes. Hell yeah.

What's wrong, Gilly?
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
I like that because a lot of people will be like, he's the mascot. And I'm like, what? Like, I'm not the mascot. Y'all take it a little too far. I don't want to take my guy's job, you know what I mean? But I appreciate y'all for having me, man. How'd you get the nickname, Gilly? I got it from, I was always Little Gilly in the hood of North Philadelphia.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
I used to be Little Gilly from North Philly. But when I started rapping, I was always intrigued by this movie called Young Guns and Billy the Kid. He was a smooth-faced gangster that looked like he was young, but he really wasn't that young. And I was very intrigued by that, so I went with Gilly the Kid when I decided to start rapping. So it was Gilly the Kid. And then I grew up.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
At some certain point in time, I had to become a man, you know what I mean? I figured I'd change it to the king.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
It was rough, man. Philly is one of the poorest cities in the country. You know what I mean? That's why the Eagles mean so much. I don't think you guys understand that when the Eagles lose, it really feel like a third cousin died.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Like, you don't get over it until Wednesday. Like, Thursday, you're like, when y'all win, oh, my God. Y'all seen the parade. Oh, yeah. You ever seen anything like that?
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
The fact that you brought up the passionate fan base, I'm going to start this off right here. Because I do a live stream during the Eagles games, Gileon Sports. And two years ago, I was a little critical on RB. I was. So, I'm a man of accountability. I apologized to you several times. Absolutely. I said, you know, players fuck up too. I fucked up. You know what I mean?
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
And last year, you proved that you were everything that... You said you was. You know what I mean? So, yeah, I want to apologize to you because I threw a little mustard on your jacket two years ago. I put a little couple stains on your jacket. That's good. But you cleaned it off. You cleaned it off. I got you cleaned off. He kept it clean. Tied stick on there. I got it right on. I seen him.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
I had to apologize. I said, I'm sorry. Players up too. I'm sorry. No, I appreciate that, though. Yeah, man, but y'all did your thing this year, man. Coop, let me ask you a question. Are you from Iowa? I'm from Iowa. From small town Iowa. In college, I played a basketball tournament in Dubuque, Iowa. Dubuque. Yes.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
I've been there. So coming from Iowa to a fucking fast city like Philadelphia, like... What was the most shocking thing to you?
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
When I was putting out the videos during my live streams and I was calling you Cooper Dijon, it was like early in the season. Was you like, what the fuck is he talking about? Yeah.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
That's sick, though. Yeah, it is sick. But did you have any thought, like, what are they talking about?
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
So how do you say it? Yeah, we were saying it.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
John. John. John. John. I sound like John. I got a lot of hate off that. There could be anything now. You know, anything. Good, bad, in between. John, John, John. You know what I mean? You could be talking about a girl. You could be talking about a car. You could be talking about a sneaker. John's crazy right there. It could be anything. That's the beauty in it. How did it start, though?
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
I don't know who was the first person that said that.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
No, it may not be.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
North Philadelphia, area. You're like an icon in Philly. You are. You know what's crazy is that I've been in the Eagles locker room. If you look two years ago, I was down here talking to the players. I was there. You were there too. If you go back to when we first won the Super Bowl in 2017, 2018. Yeah. I'm crying real tears on Instagram. So my fan base, they've been new.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Like, Gilly is like the ultimate. He lives and dies about the Eagles. Really, the Sixers, the Flyers, the Phillies, the Wings, the Soul, LaSalle, Temple, Villanova, Drexel. I'm a Philly guy, true and through. You know what I mean? That's tough. When y'all win, it's like, you don't understand. This was like one of the greatest years of my life.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
Yeah, any team.
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
It's got to be top five because... When you look at what we did in the postseason, scoring the most points in postseason history. I mean, come on, man. We was putting up 55 burgers on people. You know what I mean?
Exciting Mics
Gillie Da King on His FAVORITE Eagles Memories, Shedeur's Draft Party & More | Exciting Mics Ep 3
And then we get to the Super Bowl and the great Patrick Mahomes. And he is great. You know what I mean? I just got a couple shots out there. He said he was smoking that Philly pack. I know he didn't get that. You know what I mean? But they didn't even get the ball, I don't even think, past the 50-yard line in the first half. Yeah.
