Melyssa Ford 0:39
And I said my shining, winning personality. And then here comes Flip.
Joe Budden 0:42
Which has not taken that. Okay, fuck off. What Flip said, though?
QueenzFlip 0:47
Tell the story that you told behind the scenes. How you ended up in some Colombian's car and they asked you to go to Europe. That tracks. They asked you to be a drug mule. That's so on brand, by the way. And you said, I don't know how I ended up in their car. You said you don't know how you ended up in a meeting. That's the part that's on brand. Then Poe asked you, were you on drugs? Yes. This is turning into a whole different type of podcast. I didn't know we was doing that. Can you please tell the story, please?
Melyssa Ford 1:13
Okay, wait. Let me preface it with this. So we're writing on the board and we were talking about a couple of basketball players who got super duper scammed, right?
QueenzFlip 1:21
Yes.
Melyssa Ford 1:22
So then the next line is craziest scams you've ever heard or been involved in. So I'm going to ask, is this where we want to start?
Joe Budden 1:34
Yes. Yes. Absolutely. Because some of us, Melissa, Savannah... are not and haven't been scammers. So when you asked that question in the room, the closest I came was when fucking the feds was on big face. Oh, that's my man. The closest I've been to a scam is when the feds was on big face. We was on the half blowing it. Big Face, what up, boy? Big, Big Face.
Melyssa Ford 2:02
I miss you, boy.
QueenzFlip 2:03
Be home, nigga. Yeah, I know, I know.
Melyssa Ford 2:04
I thought you said freedom. I just saw him.
QueenzFlip 2:06
No, I said I miss you. You miss you, Big Face. I ain't seen him. He tried to get me to go to Long Island or one of his spots to talk to me about some shit. Yo, Big Face, stop. No, me too. Me too. I see Big Face in the club.
Joe Budden 2:15
Big Face is looking good. Yo, I like when I see my niggas that were scamming 20 years ago and put the scams behind them and they still look good.
QueenzFlip 2:25
Yeah, he pulled up in some big boy shit on me.
Joe Budden 2:26
Big face skin was looking good. Car looking the way it's supposed to be. So, Mel, I don't have like a scammer. I always lived by the law.
Melyssa Ford 2:34
Okay.
Joe Budden 2:35
You, on the other hand, darling.
Melyssa Ford 2:37
I have a little bit of a checkered past.
Joe Budden 2:42
That Latsky kid shit? Yeah, it's a front. You were surviving, yo.
Melyssa Ford 2:46
I was. I was. I was in survival mode up until a couple years ago. Shit.
QueenzFlip 2:55
A couple of years until you got up here, right? Until you caught a lick up here, right?
Joe Budden 3:01
Jason Lee ain't look out for you? But wait, that's part of Mel's trauma a little bit. That's part of Mel's trauma. We're not dissecting Mel. She can't get away. But that's part of her trauma is survival mode on my own. There's nobody. I got to do what I got to do. Fight or flight. So I'm out of here. And in that, some niggas got to get scammed. Can we please let her tell us about being a drug mule? Yo, when we in survival mode, my nigga, fight or flight, somebody has to get the better end of the deal. Sorry. Tell them, Mel. Sorry, y'all. Sorry, Mandy. Your views ain't going to be like ours. You not going to be able to win a Gracie with your stubby ass.
QueenzFlip 3:48
She looks good.
Joe Budden 3:49
Stop it.
QueenzFlip 3:50
And she moved to Atlanta.
Joe Budden 3:51
She went out there. She had to move. New York was getting rough. Some people left. L.A. came right to New York. Some people was about that bullshit, nigga. Fuck you to fight or flight. Hold on, hold on. Stop it now. Fight or flight. Stop it. You done freeze. I got mail. All right.
Melyssa Ford 4:06
Let's go, man. Let's go. I want to betray you so bad, but it's all good. Give me Mel in her thoughts.
Joe Budden 4:11
