00:03 What up, man? It's your boy DJ Dell, strickin' for the streets
00:06 With my homeboy right here, now we're goin' down
00:09 Razz, Kaz, West Coast, East Coast, S.O.B.s
00:12 What's good, homie?
00:13 Man, you know, just, you know, tryin' to get it how I live, pretty much, you know what I'm sayin'?
00:17 So what's goin' on with you?
00:18 Uh, you know, about to start this project, uh, officially, hopefully in the next couple of weeks
00:24 Which, technically, it'll be my third album to be released, but technically my fifth album
00:32 Where, uh, you know, the name of it is The Autobiography of John Austin, so
00:37 Just lookin' forward to really gettin' in and makin' some shit that I'm happy with
00:41 John Austin? Who's John Austin?
00:42 That's my government
00:44 So it's gonna be a personal album?
00:46 Yeah, it's definitely gonna be personal
00:47 Alright
00:48 I, you know, I've experienced a lot in the past, you know, six years since I haven't been able to
00:54 For whatever reasons, to put out an album, so
00:57 I definitely got a lot of shit I wanna put in perspective and let the people know
01:02 Okay, that's what's up
01:03 Mm-hmm
01:04 So what you got for that album?
01:05 Yeah, man
01:06 What's goin' on with you?
01:08 Not much, I mean, my story has stayed pretty consistent about it, I mean
01:13 It is what it is at this point, you know, whatever me and Dooley got into it
01:18 He and me in the back of the head with a bottle, turned around and deal with him
01:23 And pretty much had an altercation with like, you know, about four of 'em, you know, including
01:27 But it lasted about ten seconds, it was kinda like that
01:31 Game just went back and told a whole different person, you know what I'm sayin'?
01:34 But it was like 400 people in the club, so
01:37 You can go ask those 400 people, they just don't happen to have a record deal
01:41 It's just me and him with a record deal, but, you know what I'm sayin'?
01:44 You know, that's his version
01:46 I always just tell people, you can, you know, Game did a lot of different interviews, you know what I'm sayin'?
01:50 He did a lot of different websites, and his story tended to change
01:54 My story is pretty much the same, I just stayed real fast, you know what I'm sayin'?
01:59 But it's all, I mean, you know, it's all good
02:02 I don't beat dead horses, you know what I'm sayin'?
02:06 I mean, you know, I wouldn't sit there, he don't wanna rhyme against me, he's a coach
02:10 I'm wrapped up with people here, quality, you know?
02:13 I came into the game as a fan, you know what I mean?
02:16 I was a fan of hip-hop since a young motherfucker, you know what I mean?
02:19 And then, I wanted to be involved with it
02:22 I was such a fan, I wanted to play music, rock clubs, you know what I mean?
02:26 Do my thing, do the mixtape shit, you know?
02:29 I used to go, before I was mixtapin' and doin' all that stuff, just goin' uptown
02:33 When I was younger, not like I'm an old motherfucker now
02:36 But I used to just go uptown, buy a few bags of weed
02:40 I don't smoke no more, don't do drugs, kids, don't do drugs
02:45 But, you know, go over there, pick up a few bags
02:48 And go cop a Dua or a cool mixtape or this and that
02:52 It's like New York shit, you know, but I know you been in the game, so you know this shit
02:55 You know what I mean? You were on them mixtapes, you know what I'm sayin'?
02:58 So much pop, Dua, this one, I gotta say
03:01 That you are one of the only West Coast dudes that is able to rock in different coasts
03:08 Like East Coast and West, like you're very respected in the East Coast
03:12 So why do you think that people in the East Coast got love for you like they do in the West?
03:17 Um, I'm just, you know, I can't explain that
03:21 I think at the end of the day, the East Coast was founded on lyricists
03:27 Um, I mean, they started this shit, you know what I'm sayin'?
03:31 And what I got out of me being young and listening to hip-hop, rap music, whatever you wanna call it
03:37 Was lyrics, and that's definitely something I wanted to add to my game
03:42 To make me, you know, to make me competitive in this business
03:46 So I think maybe at the end of the day, that's why, you know, a New York nigga can fuck with you
03:52 Because they say, "He don't talk about something"
03:54 You don't fuck that, and 'cause he's a real ass nigga
03:57 I done had this nigga on the back blocks at Crown Heights, Brownsville, in the back pourin' what the fuck?
04:03 Moonshine and shit, nigga, in the back, and shit
04:06 With y'all these niggas, with y'all these niggas, with
04:09 Corn liquor, with y'all these niggas, you know what I'm sayin'?
04:12 With not the pretty trans niggas, but with the thick, junglist, blood-clot trans
04:17 You know what I'm sayin'? It's Big Waston and the Rangers talkin' to you, man
04:20 My nigga's respected on both coasts 'cause he's a real ass nigga, man
04:23 You know what I'm sayin'? All the rest of that shit's irrelevant, man
04:26 Dig that, Razz Cass on seven, nigga
04:29 Oh, thank you
04:30 Alright
04:31 Ain't wise to say it, enough said right here
04:33 Yeah, honestly, Mr. Wise over here just shut it all down, you know what I'm sayin'?
04:38 This Razz Cass right here, if you haven't heard of him, you need to
04:42 Get familiar
04:43 Get very familiar, you know what I'm sayin'?
04:45 [no audio]
