Like I said, I just learned about IT you know me but yeah, like i've been a fellow since, you know, I was a juvenile and I say that because a lot of people would be like, oh, you know, once you become eighteen, a your record gift sealed, whatever did you do? Well, I got charged in as a dull when I was seventeen, and and I was my second felony that I got in business and in life or access or the summer.

That's a ecod 点 com slash bowler。 Then I I want to you know get deep into like kind like lyar get to know me more, says we on that topic of, you know, felonies and being Young.

And the stuff like that since I was Young was I was in show in the mean. And I called my first case when I was fourteen, got in trouble, hing out the wrong people, ended up in a probation care violin. And to the point I end up having to go due time, which had to go to B, B, R, C, which is like T, Y, C is a juvenile prison, juvenile detention.

And um I was there, I was in boys homes. And when I was little bit after sixteen, I spent I spent my sixteen birthday in jail. Um I gotta look IT after that.

Um a part of a like a part of the the requirements of me to get out. I had to get A G D. So I got A G, D, and get out and really just want to a phase in my life.

You know, I mean, where was just like trying to figure myself the crazy thing, even after to have A G, D, I even enrolled back in the high school just because I wanted to hang out my friends and to your school. Crazy, right? So I was doing that and really going back before we try to figure myself out in life.

And I remember me and my friends got together. We asked ourselves, like what is IT that we wanted to do? Like what were we good at? And so we actually got together and decided to do everything there is to do tom a Robin stealing stealing cars, you know he likes husband whatever IT is.

We did everything and um after all that you know we basically realized IT was like, hey, huston was what I like to do. There was something I enjoy. Y you know me i'll never forget IT. I mean, when I got out the boys home and I was no, I I got my license because I had a hardship license and I was right around my friends and I was kicking IT.

I'll never forget when I got introduced to ecstasy, the long story short, I basically became one of the main people or one of the big people sell in ecstasy, you mean and um I was willing we were doing a lot of stuff. We just started huston and I was a selling pills out of this pohl called T. K.

Or they call tRicky. It's evm is worried. Really stand for chicky. IT was a place we should just skip and play pool that hang out every day and next. And I was lying in attire, I was like my trust. But um we even turn that place into a club on the weekends.

I was making so much money out there doing my thing, seventeen years old just back in fourth doing things and then handed up trying to help out a friend we're going to some shit you know, being Young and dumb I ended up kitchen attempt to murder charge in organ engaging organized crime activity at seventeen um I had just got off parole from my juvenile of stuff like not even six months parts and then basically in december I got charged with the attempted murder and engaging organized criminal activity at seventeen which they charged me as an an adult uh when that happened um the charges in the in drop later to deadly conduct with discharge of firearm and a death for a while it's stuck like that and um I got me you know into a lot of stuff I was running around and just just willing you know mean and then I caught my fake case a week after ninety eleven when I was A I was nineteen. I was nineteen years old when I come a fake the crazy thing of at all like you know fans win ninety eight point five or ninety nine point five percent of their fair cases and um. I was blessed to be able to beat my case.

I was at one point five percent in. I I was very thankful for that and um you know I made that out and um IT was just crazy. IT was just crazy because what happened was when I got charged with the attempted murder and the organized crime, long story short, I was facing, I never forget.

So I got on december, we had court, and IT was like, a week before Christmas. And me M, A. Fald partners, me M. I code defendants, we went to court and we had quarter point of lawns at the time, and the da was, I look, the judge is feeling good because Christians is coming up. So if .

you are sign .

right now, the just that should all give you out thirty years. But if you wait to after Christmas and new year yearly your face and twenty five a life you know it's whatever you're onna deal IT and at that .

moment decide day like .

I guess he was a wake of call kind I guess or not because I don't get in my fake S A year later in but I was just like. Now you're going to get that to me, you know I mean and luckily no I gin a lawyer and um was a way to get a drop down to like I said, daily conduct would discharge of firearm and uh def the deadly conduct IT was IT was IT was a weak case for them so you know I got found guilty for the death case and they just try to put IT together I had in three years for that charge while I was out on a pill bone is when I got my first case. And you know, that's when they were just really trying to give me caught up.

And I bring that up because the funny thing and how god works is that usually when you're in federal custody, if you have many cases that you're dealing, when you sign for, you get IT run concurrently together. So it's like if I got my three years sense in state, but i'm in the face right now, I sign for three years in the phase, i'm to do eighty five percent at the affect time. And the state they're going to the're going to give you, you'll be for pro non aggravated cases in twenty five percent at the time.

For some reason at that time, the D A. I was faced in eight years in the phase. But the D A trial was like on that monday. But I friday the deal like you i'm offer your your defended to my lawyer. He was like, on my offer you twenty one months and I was so excited about that I was about to sign IT.

But I was like, oka sign IT if you want IT concurrent with my stay because if you don't run to concurrent that I could sit there in the face for twenty one months, then I still got to go do my three years in the in the state. But if I don't, then I can basically do IT together and get out. And for some reason, the dh just kept telling me he couldn't guarantee me that I scared as I was.

Man, I was to say, if they can't guarantee me, like i've just not even going, going, do IT, you know, mean and and by the Grace of god, man, I want to trial them monday. And before human trial started, you know, the judge kicked out the case and they felt they have enough evidence. And, you know, I got a quitted on that man, and I just went back to have to do my time in the state, and I did my time.

And the crazy car was like, you know, I did, like, almost two years came home. And a really was trying to do Better, you know, trying to do right. And I ll never forget.

I got out, and before I went in, you know, when I used to beyond that block of the tk, the crazy thing is that pool hall IT was in a shopping center in front of these apartments called a min, where the pool, how was on one corner, on the other corner, that at this corner store, and the coroner story, that was all a crack deal is right, there was all airbus cracks. And whatever, you know, mean that there was A A screw shop that was, like, right in the center, the puzzle. And back in the day, I used to be out there and they'd beyond a block.

And when nobody selling that, that we just kick in airway freestone and rapper for funds. Some, like dad and I mess around and just freestyle. And there wrap in army, who we are always be like, you you know, sound like, and you should, you should, you should go to the studio or record this.

Like if you record this, I buy IT. And I remember that time I was gained money, man. And I was just like, whatever brow, i'm not worried about that at that you know mean, like i'm just i'm just gain money prompters human. You know mean just like I remember when that time I was getting money, my pass was like your my university gold and I remember then i'm like why I need to invest and go for you know me I may have to be up one day and i'm like like what the fog is investing you know I mean, I am seventeen making twenty thirty thousand a week like I was like now man, i'm good and i'm to say you like this at that time. Go with three hundred and thirty five books at out three seventy .

five homes were you .

don't saying a yo today is what last I might check twenty six, two thousand, six hundred fifty. But you know, back to my story, I get locked and I know when I looked, I was like, know what am I do what I do when I get out and try and I remember like trying to write music or do whatever you don't mean but I just seemed like I just get like writers block and it's funny because it's like I think this is type of artist I am you know in music I rap I write about what i'm doing or how living and what my life is about and I guess when I was always armed ated, there's not much you really can talk about you know and um so anyways you know I get out again on and I try to go straight you and I told myself like, you know hey you know god bless me and let me beat that pill case all in four year don't know so the fake case was possession of M, D, M, A metaline dioxide meet in panama, over three hundred grams would attend to distribute and conspiracy and you know, so when I beat that case, I told myself, like, god like you, you bless me. Give me a second chance, I would never sell another pill again.

You know, I was I was like, i'm never so dumping and I was just china go strict. You know, I mean, summer when I first came home and it's crazy because i've never been a sports person like a big on sports like that, but I came home and started betting sports. And but I was killing IT like, it's crazy.

I was killing IT like i'm talking about, I was doing so good, I was living off sports bidden and i'm talking about, I was hidden so many bookies to wear somebody who had to come me on because I was win in and um it's crazy because I didn't understand how the sports teams work and stuff like that. So like the second year, i'm still been what i'm been with the teams that I think are going to win. But you know, they can change players.

This is death. So I wasn't going to well. And so I had opportunity, man, and I had, I had had to take IT on, you know, how to take on the opportunity and you know, got back in the streets.

You know, mean, I was I was just set up too easy for me. Why didn't have to do much? And I always really, really what I was, you know, me and I just had to go back to doing what I know.

And you know, still at the time I was like he was on my rap and and you know, I was, yeah, i'd do, yeah, i'd do IT but I was never like some I thought about, you know, like for you to do, because this is I coming from where I come from. This just like you gotta, what do you know, man, like you, you, you can, you can dream. You don't mean, but it's like until that dream come true, what you've going to do.

And so, like, I just gotta make their reality and make a sure survive every day and make a show, make what I need to make this data survive, you mean? And that's what i'd sell a lot of people. Is that like when I think about my life and and I grew up and what I wanted for myself growing up, i've like over exceeded what I daughter or what I even want in.

So as I truly a blessing and you know mean but um so my method was always like that back and that which is basically doing what I got to do, doing you know what I need to gear right and I never forget one day we went to this restaurant cala razz, and me and my friends were hanging out. There was these wrappers there. There was this one rapper.

This was kai. And at the time we had like a hot song on the radio, know he was a real big known and he got on the stage at the place and was just played around freestyle. And and so I my best friend Anthony y is funny because him and my boy race was there to other people.

But they kept telling me, like, you you need to globe there and rap and i'm just like, no, whatever, whatever. And you know, they were drink. They were basically grab me and dragged me on the stage.

And I went on stage and I was nervous. But I just started rapp and, you know, mean, and when I did that, they say, I called kadi's attention. And, you know, you really thought he was a man like, I really like what you spain and I like what you do. And you know, you know, I want to fall what you men is going to studio, do some work in a game. We we exchange numbers.

I just remember just being like whatever I want to do you know mean just you know how can IT happen and nobody like me you know sam, like i'm just another do from the street say, how's that you going happen and um the crazy thing of at all me like I reach out to him and um started just wrong with him. You know going on tour with him that's when I kind of like understood and started going to know what the music business was like you know me I kind of got like the idea of IT and everything with him going on tour, seeing how things work, kind of like learning this and that, you know mean the eventually after a war. Like basically I was a like, not serious about IT too much.

I just went back to do what I know hosen, you know, host in hosts in hosen. I remember that time, like I was just, I was doing good. I was gained money and I, I made, I made my mixtape.

You know, what's the studio paid for? Maybe mix. And at the time, there is a thing on my space. And a man like IT was crazy to see, you know, I mean and and I looked at and knows like you my space music.

Like, I want to learn to show like, remember at the time I was dyed some and his and you know a street girl, you know me straight street so i'm return. I like, go, you see this, i'm a user, I do this and I am a make IT work she's like, yeah, whatever you know, I remember I did this thing where I had a goal. I told me, so my goals in six months to get one hundred thousand plays a day on my little music box.

If you remember, my space music had like a music box where you play your music. And what idea was I created a mess message. And what I deal was in the message is like, hey, how you do you know about becoming an artist named Jimmy? Know you that time? Check my music.

Let me know what you think I appreciated. IT was real simple, and I knew then was like, the way I can give he was attention is to the girls. Because girls, like, if you get them to like your shit, they going to tell the man about on something home is about IT, where IT might be.

No sad. But I was like, I was through the women as the best way going to go es through the girls. So I would literally message all the grows, any grow, I find a my space message, copy pace, copy pace, copy pace.

I remember van as moment that so you just doing this to each, like, fuck these girls that i'm like, but you gotta see a big, bigger pitch. You know, something like, it's all about seeing a bigger pitch. The shit work, the shit work like I should take a golf and um I remember do my music.

And at the time the Young bloods from atlantic, they were they were big at the time and I had got a lib buzz already going around the streets and the crazy car was like, you know, maybe in an asian artist I went too hard when I came out because you know everybody in the urban community, you know all the Blake py would knew me because of how grew up um you know one of my best friends go on out was a two name shane, you know mean and we is the hustle together. Literally some bubble gum in middle school and everything so I kind like introduced ecstasy into urban community and when I came out doing music, you know and talking about hosting and everything, especially down here, what you talk about, they really want to know and make sure you really about what you say. And so I kind of like worked out, you know, saying that, oh, you know, that's Jimmy.

Oh yeah, yeah, that's to do that, use a cell pills. So do that, to do that. You know, I I gave my here from that that so I kind of like worn on the street is always know, won't be worn on the street.

That's how the thing worked out in. Like I said, you know, shapu came down here. We was in the same club together and our member seeing him. And so I decided to bim a boat, uh, petrol, you know and you know jy cony down here, but you know, I dra otros. And you know, he like you appreciated as I was like you, me, how you I said, you have you found that music? You know, I mean, like, what can we do to the studio would ever did IT done? I remember like he was I made so i'm actually living in the morning his I but a you serious trying in a studio I remember he's I go know, charged three banks for reverse you I mean and and we can get IT in i'll never forget IT on how's like this doing? You know mean ticket and I was the best three thousand I invested because he and staying back we going to studio, we ended a record like danie whole mistakes together, you know I mean and we build a relation together and um that one I had the song already that I had did on one of their beats from their songs called presidential was the song called.

Downward all the when they take.

With down. boys.

Let me know the games boy be in the street game change, game switch and Green game. keep. The may holy, win my street game and win street game blow.

Out there forget being in a studio and just getting writers block because i'm just so intimidated like in my mom, i'm just like you like I can't believe i'm even in the studio with all these people. You know mean like i'm making this music. So we were trying to do so many songs at first, and I was just not coming out the way I like.

And so I remember he had heard the remixed data presidential, and he was like, yot h egle hardest fat at the end of night. But he was another two, like, nine hours. I was like, you man, like that hook.

And I adverse on an original beat and get him to spit on that too, and see what happen. And I never forget IT was like, you was cool. You don't mean like the song was cool and like I said, I was I was song I already did, I think not know IT. So we put on the C D, and which is passed and out of my friends, you know, just given IT out. I know next, you know, like the shake cut fire and cut fire, IT was IT was crazy, man, like, you know, ended up on a radio, ended up blown up everywhere I got shows.

My dream came true, you know, I mean, and like the goal that I had of one hundred thousand place a day on my space, I was getting like, almost two hundred thousand plays by the, by the time I wanted to get where I wanted with IT, and also shared to tea, to q, to back down, to match, he had showed them on my space. So people was really watching and seeing what I do. But IT was IT was surreal.

I A lot to you, you know, that time I was just like, you can understand, like somebody like me coming from nothing, trying to really just survive and and make IT. You know, like my goals weren't crazy house, like you always do. I was winging and should to go off.

Like, that was the first legitimate thing I ever did in my life. You know, in downtown and boys, when big, they blew up. He got crazy.

I mean, like lousianner was pride, the first state, newton city, that really was on my music, really show me mad love. You know me an especially during, you know, the hok a tree, that thing happened. You know, mean, a lot of people for noise.

Ana came to a houston, you know, in a lot of people that I actually knew from the stress back in the day, you know, when I was doing there. And so like a lot and never show love. Man, then five, I never, I never forget I did, to show where anybody from Louisa, and they had a Louis, an a driver lives and getting free.

And we did a big party, man, and IT sold out. IT was lit. Man, I think that was the first time when I felt like starting like you.

This is, this might be what my life is. Gonna like, i'm i'm really gonna out to streets. You, I mean, and I think IT was the relation with sham paul.

I remember coming to see him in atlantic and I finally we and now kicking again, drunk and use like, yeah, I got this this a the little video should I got ta? Do you know what you want? Roll me like I i'm in a White tale then of choice I know jerious you know me just my grill and but we pull up in this a real video show you don't end like tour buses.

Everything lied down. They put us in one location, bring us in the location. And i'm just like, what the heck is going on here? You mean IT was crazy because he was like, you, you know, like just just camp on the video of me.

Some like, cool. I remember we go into his house and it's like a house party theme. And I remember like where I was standing, and I remember one of his home boys actually like thought that my position I was in was Better than here.

So he kind of like moved me out away to give us. And i'm just like, I intriguing because like, I get i'm just like job just here, I don't know, was going on. They play in the music. We do anything. And I think maybe not even a month later, brow, like the song, ended up being on bt.

And IT was a song called do IT do IT by cherish and i'm sure a lot you member, that song a lot yeah, nobody brought that thing that that's when viral became virtually virtual like I remember their threads everywhere. Where are like? And it's crazy because I spot that the guy moved me, put me directly in front of the camera. So I was like, you see me in there and they started, like, there was like threads everywhere on the internet.

Like, who is this fucked in asian dude, in this video you don't mean like this song was on member, the bt top ten, whatever videos, whatever that was on there for, like, weak, straight, no sand IT was crazy man that catapulted my face and who I was until whole other real man, you know, the song on the radio, everything was going crazy. I was getting record deals on the table. You know, jay prince, senior restart to me, you know saying, like there was a lot of things like how I was able to beyond the trait that remix with bm b you I mean, I was right.

Number two, on my space music in texas, right at the power walls, will be the next or is coming out right out the poll. You mean like i'm somebody mtv flew me out for the vm maze. I'm somebody i'm going to parties you don't say, and i'm going to daily party at the forty forty club you don't say I at the party.

I mean, mean, J, Z, shopping up with him is crazy. You mean, IT was definitely a blessed and mean. And the crazy thing, I never forget me, a website I called asian raps to come.

And I remember they had message me one day and they literally in the message, they said, your, who the fuck are you? Where the fuck you came from? And also like what you mean? You don't mean and there was just like you like you just came out of nowhere like we don't even know who you are and it's like you didn't use asian people or the the age commute to blow you up in your music or nothing like you just came on a nowhere you just blew up and army replies them like, you know, mam, music doesn't just cater to one color.

You know mean, like I consider my music hostile music. So I made music for the hostile, you know, I mean, so, you know, it's funny. Like, I used to these fending glasses all the time.

Back again, when I was doing music, a lot of people would thought I was a panic. You, I mean, but this is like, if you look, I mean, you know what I am, and that's the best way for me to represent my people. I don't gotta tell you about IT.

You know, mean, I want to make you love me and love my music. And when you see whatever claim with IT you accept to is what IT is, is too late you to change your mind? I feel how you feel already.

You know, I mean, I was crazy. Man, you know, I was torn. I was gain.

You know, I was, I was gain, you know, mean, and at that time, this when Samantha mong, I pay new havana, like I said, you know, her moshe from the streets. And so he was IT. IT was hard for her to father them everything.

SHE didn't think things are going to blow de him think things are going to blow up. you. Nobody did. When we had her IT was a hard situation. I was still one foot in, one foot on the streets, not as much.

But, you know, I was putting a situation where I had to basically take a step back from the music. And even at that time, I didn't know, you know, I mean, like, I wasn't thinking, oh, you know, if I take us to back away all right now, I don't worked like that. You've got to keep grand.

You ve got to keep pop of music. You ve got to keep drop in. I was thinking like, you know, i'm up like i'm just take a step back and focus on my daughter and do whatever.

But they ended up putting me in a bad situation. You know, with my music career, I slow me down and you know, I basically you just had to, like, go back to us. The more, you know, mean, like that is what I was. I never forget the first time me and been made, he message me on my space. And i'll never forget what this mother, father said in this.

And the crazy thing is, been, is the same person he bans as I met this this will message me and the messed says, I never forget IT IT goes, you got exactly what IT takes to make IT you going be the first went to blow up if I don't pick up to make, you know, bin always with some page shit, he can never just give you press without add a little hate to IT. But IT was crazy, you know, mean. And you know, we we built that relationship, you know, mean.

And for me, growing up was IT was IT was really different. You know, mean, like I always was like looked at different because I feel like I different. You mean, like growing up in a leaf is considered like the most diverse community in in the us.

You mean, it's a melching pot, you know, everybody. And and so growing up, I was like, whether you are White, black, mexican, indian, whatever, we all were like the same. We all acted the same. And IT wasn't until middle school when people try to make IT obvious that I was different, like I talk different and um I was different you know mean I wasn't like how supposed to be or how other asians were however, that you you want to recall that and say, you know I just always felt that you know always different and and he wasn't in a good way you know was hard.

He was hard growing up and I always felt like I was just like a region, you know me, I went through so many phases and I knows who I really was are what, you know, mean. And that's just what IT is, you know, me and bend. We just kept in touch throughout those years, will see each other here and there, I ll never forget.

Been going you. So one time, because he had a video shoot to do this, was hang out. And, you know, this is the time when not, you know, I was separated with vanadium morality and I had vana um I didn't really handle by and really help me with vana and I gave you know my dad opportunity try to help me and he couldn't do IT and so at that moment I was like.

I'm not even going depend on nobody more how to do what I got to do and i'll never forget, been hit me and he was like you you at, you know I mean coming you at this video shoot, I mean, introduced on people will be a good look to help with your career of like that i'm like broken making I got my daughter. You mean and each just like, are you serious and I go, yeah but you not promise my daughter I got a beer with her like I got to buy and to watch her and he was a simple, like, you're trip and like, you have to make these sacrifices so you can know, do your thing like I got these people. We can meet your network and get with them so you can really help you in your career.

But i'm like, broken, like, I promised her, you know me, I can't leave. I gonna buy to watch another day. Two, it's crazy because we laugh about IT.

Now, you know, mean, because this, just like I sacrifice what I felt I needed to do. IT wasn't even like me. I born a sacrifice, my music care for you, or nothing like that. I was just like, I need to do why I need to do at the moment fucking him about the future.

And you know that commitment and that that that sacrifice, that idea, you know, came back ten times, you know, do ga, you know, especially we when went away barrowing everything like that free for the people know or don't know, you know, mean, like, but i'll get to that little bit later. This is more of like, they are my face of vana. And my daughter was my everything.

You mean like I had a hustle with her. I had nobody to watch her helper. I had to hit the streets where everything and like that was my road dog in I reason. So he was a lot like me.

And you know we end move in in a lay in two thousand and ten, you know, mean, ban, once like you're just come out here on a help you put next, do you think everything just get things going, you know? I mean, and so I did not making the move in two thousand and ten and I remember me. I part release another song, comment other dreams.

IT was catching momentum. Everything was going on. Man did a song with slim bug.

You know, mean that he was hot. You know, mean everything pop in. I member slim m trying to buy a song for me.

But long story short, man, I ended up kitchen another case. And, you know, I just had to make me go right back to what I needed to do. You don't mean and go back to the streets, but you know, that's what life was rose like, that's what I do. And I had to do what I know because anything else i'm i'm just, you know what else i'm gonna do, you know?

I mean, so as I I cut my case and try to do the music, they try to stretch you whatever, but deal what I had a knowing get back to the house and industry should that is really, you know got me where I needed to take key moving to survive, you know I mean and so did not having to do that time um I moved back to L A go back out and was like you you know that just go straight and dying work. I ended up you know moving to cali again and just try to just you know do stuff and and you know get a part of the legal marijuana business because I had a taste to be before I went in. You know.

IT just worked .

deal what he did. He really, man, you know, just really, really just do what I had to do. You know, I say that a lot.

You know, mean, because I just have felt as I looked at, as I still look at know how to do what I got to do whatever IT is just what it's gonna. It's just crazy, you know, sharing this, which I bring IT. And in the future i'll get more into detail.

You know, mean, but it's just kind of like A. A little summary you know of who I am aware for the people what I don't know I mean and ah then you understand IT is no, you don't mean anything can happen. Anything can happen for show.

Definitely hard work is always gna get you where you need to go and you'll make in a life, you know, mean, but yes, so you know, I and doing the time got our wood called try to do the legal, we boost stuff and you know got back in the streets, you know, like basically. But in two thousand thirteen, early to the fourteen, I basically had nothing under my name. I lost everything. And like I had got out and basic, got out with money. I got out like my eggs, made me hundred fifty thousand.

I was going for six months SHE made me one fit while I was going my home is put some bread for me but not eighty thousand um you know and I went to cali and try to go lege and based off situations, I in a blue almost seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars in the thirteen and fourteen I had nothing and I lost IT all I was down to thirty thousand life and IT cost forty five thousand a month to keep my warehouses and other stuff going. I was literally like to my bear had to do what I had to do, get back into and and bounce back and do my thing, man. And that's when um at the time I was like messana jury, I always was messing around with jury.

Um I remember when I was going on tour in the music, you know back there there was a social media and jeweller's promoting themselves. So I would go to like minnesota, I go to ohio, I go to dallas everywhere. And they're just like they see me wearing on his jury.

I've been wearing a big jury. You mean you can google by name? Since back in two thousand five, two thousand and four, i've been wearing big chains, big pieces. If so, these guys are just like a you men, like they were little buy the jury of me IT looked like I came home and I got a rob, but they buy all machine. I just come with me by more and I would sign middle man jury from there you know, mean, like basic just put the place together, make me iraq I also like, so I was doing that.

I saw things he's got you know further and further yeah guys you know, is there so much and as i'm like talking this, which all it's like i'm visualizing and we're remembering a lot of these things, men, and it's really taking me back to certain times and more things pop up on my head and I want to share with out you know mean, like I having him and going to me becoming a jeweller really high came about, and how my daughter went to byron and literally changed our lives. And how I was able, like I said, I had zero at the end of thirteen, and how I built this more time, million dollar empire and and everything for my children and and even my kids. And so you know, I want to sit back and reflect and and at the same time, which are really here IT is, and any questions that child guy you can ask, so I can really get deeper and dig deeper in to this man, like it's just so much more and so much that I wouldn't to share, like I said, is my first time.

So I hope I did good and I hope, shit man, I even know, but I just know is that we can keep this going on man, we going we going to cut this here um so I can just reflect someone and just give my mind together to really give you all the part to IT is and I going really call IT the eight town house series like bin has his cate's house the series but if I you know you know the stories that tales from the streets, man, because I get out of summaries, but we get out some real crazy to me a lot like I said.
