Shownotes
Hustle can get you started, but it’s legacy that makes it last, and that’s exactly what we’re diving into today. Join me and DLO as we explore the transformative power of turning grind, pain, and perseverance into something that truly outlives us. We’re chatting about hustling with purpose instead of burning out, flipping setbacks into strategies, and building a mindset that sticks around for the long haul. Plus, we’re all about creating impact that goes beyond just chasing money or clout, focusing instead on leaving something meaningful for the next generation. If you’re tired of the quick wins and ready to build something that actually matters, then this episode is your new best friend! So, let’s get into it!

Speaker A:If I had a boy, I would raise him differently than how I raised my daughters.

Speaker A:It ain't easy.
Speaker B:What's the hardest part?
Speaker A:The hardest part?
Speaker B:The boys.
Speaker A:Nah, I don't have problems with that part.

Speaker B:We can see what we could do.
Speaker B:Let's see what's happening.
Speaker B:20, 26 is big shit coming.
Speaker B:I feel it for you.
Speaker B:I feel it for me.
Speaker B:And this is just a new platform now.
Speaker B:I'm an action.
Speaker B:I want to know the honest, most fucking gut wrenching, like, literally truth on.
Speaker B:Cause you know, of course I'm gonna always say, as far as with my kids, if you had a little boy right there, that's a y N right, that was in the streets doing all the shit we been through.
Speaker B:I done been in and out of jail.
Speaker B:You done been to the pen, been in and out of jail, did your time, did your bid.
Speaker B:What would you tell that nigga in regards to how you turned your hustle into a legacy?
Speaker B:What words?
Speaker B:You know, would you tell him to try to say that to get him out of that mindset?
Speaker B:Because they need people like you that's already doing things and just need a positive role model like you a girl, dad.
Speaker B:You ain't in these streets like that.
Speaker B:You stay to yourself.
Speaker B:You, you know, honestly, let's keep it 100.
Speaker B:You obviously a real nigga or a good one.
Speaker B:Because the way these.
Speaker B:These streets of Oakland is going to let somebody out.
Speaker B:You can go into a room with your jewelry and be good.
Speaker B:You get what I'm saying?
Speaker B:So what would tell them to be in a space like you to where you can go anywhere and be good.
Speaker B:Your name is good.
Speaker A:First, I would ask them, like, I would ask them questions about shit that they really care about.
Speaker A:Like, what do you.
Speaker A:What.
Speaker A:What means the most to you in life?
Speaker A:And if a young can't tell me nothing, it mean if he be like nothing, then that's when that's different.
Speaker A:You got.
Speaker A:You got young out here that's still acting stupid, but they got to live for, you know what I'm saying?
Speaker A:Then you got the young who don't got to live for.
Speaker A:You got the young that's been foster care forever.
Speaker A:That's been.
Speaker A:You get what I'm saying?
Speaker A:Runaways.
Speaker A:And they ain't got no family, for real.
Speaker A:So they family.
Speaker A:Is they gang or the streets?
Speaker A:You get what I'm saying?
Speaker A:So you.
Speaker A:Them kind of people, it's hard to get through.
Speaker A:It's hard to get through.
Speaker A:Like, you could tell.
Speaker A:I could sit and tell them, bro, look at my life.
Speaker A:Look what I.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:But when you young, you don't want to hear that.
Speaker B:You just don't.
Speaker A:Because guess what?
Speaker A:You broke.
Speaker A:You don't want to hear nothing when you broke.
Speaker A:You don't want to hear nobody telling you what you should do to change your life.
Speaker A:Because guess what?
Speaker A:When you broke and you black, and you a young black man and you broke, it's hella hard for you on the streets.
Speaker A:It's so hard.
Speaker A:Because guess what?
Speaker A:Now you jumping from place to place.
Speaker A:People don't want you there too long, especially when you broke.
Speaker A:You out here thugging, you out here funking.
Speaker A:People don't want you around because people probably shooting at you.
Speaker A:And it's like a can't get a job.
Speaker A:These niggas can't even get jobs.
Speaker A:You want to know why?
Speaker A:Because every single YN out here that's in the streets, I ain't getting caught slipping in at work.
Speaker A:I just seen a clip the other day.
Speaker A:A.
Speaker A:They went up to his job, literally, I swear to God, and he like, yup, y' all caught me.

Speaker A:The mother eight is on bullshit.
Speaker B:That's facts, too.
Speaker A:The mother ain't on bullshit.
Speaker B:That's.

Speaker A:That's basketball players and football players in high school and college and it off still being in the streets because they partners is with.
Speaker A:They was with it too.
Speaker A:But this.
Speaker A:But you still got a thug because you're a part of a gang, and.
Speaker B:That ratio holds up.
Speaker A:And that's sad, because this is about getting up out of there and making some real money.
Speaker A:But young make quick money and that'd be enough for them.
