Chapter 1: Why do most people struggle to know what they want in life?
People don't know who they are in life, what they want in life. So they look for someone else to provide that information to them. Yeah. I'm not looking for that, man. I know what I want out of life. I know where I want to go in life. Somebody else's opinion or somebody else's mind frame doesn't affect it. So, you know, fuck they life.

Window shopper.
You still out in New York? Brooklyn, big time. Brooklyn?
Coney Island.
You been paying attention to the mayor race?
Nah, not really. You know what? I feel like with politics, either way... They're lying to you. No matter what party, no matter what, they're human beings just like us that have an agenda just like everybody else does. So they're just going to tell you what we want to hear. It doesn't affect my daily living. I'm going to win. I'm going to make money.
I'm going to do what I want to do, be productive, no matter who's mayor, no matter who's president. I'm gonna do what I gotta do regardless.
I got the same mindset, but a lot of people think there's so much power in those political positions.
Yeah, a lot of people feed into that. A lot of people don't know who they are in life, what they want in life, so they look for someone else.

I'm here just, I'm outside with it, man. Just like in New York, I'm outside. I'm living, this is my dream. This is my goal, man. I love being outside. When I stay home, a day or two, just relaxing, I feel like I'm missing out. You know what I'm saying? I feel like I'm not, pushing towards my goal.
Every day I got to be pushing towards the goal or furthering my dream in some type of capacity to make me feel like, you know, I'm doing something.
What is the dream for you?
The dream is to become, well, the goalposts always move. So at first it was to not work a nine to five. Once Bing Bong and all of that happened, I quit my job. Then it was to get a record deal. I signed a three album deal with Paul Rosenberg, Goliath Records, Virgin Records. So now that goalpost has moved. Now the dream is to...

Starts early.

Big time. Big time Giants. I only mess with really two sports. I watch football and MMA. Big UFC fan. Last year when we was on tour out here, I got to tour the UFC Apex Center.
I'm mad the fights weren't here this weekend. I would have definitely went to that. Yeah. But I'm a big UFC guy. Jon Jones, the GOAT? GOAT, 100%.
Agreed.
100%. There's no man in any weight division besides, you know, him that could beat him. He's, let's say, he's the heavyweight. He was the heavyweight champ. Light heavyweight champ can't beat him, and the guys under can't beat him, so that makes him the GOAT.
Yeah. Aspinall didn't look too good yesterday.

We'll leave it there. 6'9", trying to make a comeback right now to social media. What do you think about that?
The more energy you give to people like that, the bigger they get. So, listen, how I grew up is you don't tell, regardless of what the circumstances were. You knew what you signed up for. That's how I look at it. Regardless if people did something to your girl. When you signed up for that life,
