Transcript

00:00:00.000 Not only does it encourage you to read, it tells you how many verses you've read, how many pages you've read, how long you've been on it, and best of all, the Hasana counter.
00:00:07.420 Download the Qur'ani app now and have a Ramadan with Allah's book like you've never had before.
00:00:12.860 As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, brothers and sisters and dear friends.
00:00:15.280 Hope you guys are well inshaAllah.
00:00:16.040 So as you guys may know, Crepton Conan, I don't personally know them.
00:00:19.280 I did kind of come across them or hear about them after they passed away of their cousin cadet and may Allah have mercy on him.
00:00:27.060 In this video, which was sent to me, he said something interesting, he's being interviewed by a lady, and he mentioned something weird, something very strange and ajeeb happening when he was signing a contract when he just made it, I mean the dunya perspective that we're talking about.
00:00:41.820 Let's watch it inshaAllah and see what was that weird occurrence that happened.
00:00:45.420 So it's like, yeah, the Grime thinking was here for five minutes, so we think they deserve this.
00:00:50.020 And then when we're sitting down with the lawyer, the lawyer's like, sign it, sign it.
00:00:54.560 Don't matter what it is, just sign it, because they're not signing no one.
00:00:56.900 Just take the check, take the money, just sign it.
00:00:58.860 It was a bit pressure-ish, and I'm like, why is he pressuring me like that?
00:01:02.740 I didn't really like that.
00:01:04.120 And I'll be honest, I've never told this story before, and I feel like I'm just going to say it, because I feel like you should know.
00:01:12.680 Anyway, before we signed the door, I was a bit off on it, because the pressure was a bit much.
00:01:17.640 It was like, sign it, sign it.
00:01:18.680 And I remember speaking to my old manager, right, and no, if I'm lying, I'm flying.
00:01:23.600 He's phoned me, and we're in the studio, and I put on my loudspeaker, old manager.
00:01:28.220 I like that.
00:01:29.160 If I'm lying, I'm flying.
00:01:30.140 I don't know what that means, but I'm so sick.
00:01:32.560 Let's carry on.
00:01:33.660 And he's like, yeah, like, what are you lot thinking about the deal?
00:01:36.340 We're like, yeah, we want to sign it, but we want to wait and see what happens.
00:01:39.680 And, like, on Godcham, his voice changed in, like, a demon's voice.
00:01:45.260 Sign the deal.
00:01:46.140 Sign it now.
00:01:46.920 Sign it.
00:01:47.400 Sign it.
00:01:47.760 I got so shook, I threw my phone on the floor.
00:01:49.880 If I'm lying, I'm flying.
00:01:51.400 Wallahi.
00:01:52.500 And me and Krep just staring at the phone on the floor, like, what the f***?
00:01:54.900 His voice just changed into, like, a gremlin.
00:01:57.020 And all he kept saying is, sign the deal.
00:01:58.620 Sign the deal.
00:01:59.260 Sign the deal.
00:01:59.880 And I'm like, what the f***?
00:02:01.720 Like, I dropped the phone and stepped back like this, and we're just staring at the phone for about three minutes.
00:02:05.960 I'm like, did you hear that, bro?
00:02:07.100 He's like, yeah, bro, like, what the f*** is that?
00:02:09.800 Like, that's mad.
00:02:11.520 So I picked up the phone and I phoned back my manager, like, yo, bro, like, what happened to your voice, bro?
00:02:16.840 He's like, what are you talking about?
00:02:18.180 He's like, bro, your voice changed, bro.
00:02:19.700 He's like, what are you talking about?
00:02:21.380 So from then, I was a bit, yeah, this is a bit funny.
00:02:24.900 Ended up signing the deal anyway, but I was, like, five hours late.
00:02:28.680 They still signed it.
00:02:29.760 I was a bit sceptical.
00:02:30.820 You watch the video back, my face is a bit, like, it's a bit weird.
00:02:36.460 I don't know if I was overthinking it.
00:02:38.680 Okay, a few things to get here.
00:02:40.480 Number first thing, if I'm lying, I'm flying.
00:02:43.420 I like that.
00:02:43.900 I feel like I'm going to be using that, yeah?
00:02:44.980 Okay, that's quite interesting.
00:02:47.120 Jokes aside, though.
00:02:47.860 One thing he mentions now when he's talking about this.
00:02:50.920 So, now, we can say, you know what, some people who are rational, like, not rational, but, you know, people are like, oh, no.
00:02:56.840 It could have been that, you know, sometimes you're speaking to someone and the voice starts, the signal goes funny and then it starts sounding like a gremlin.
00:03:02.620 Argument sake, let's address both.
00:03:05.160 Let's suppose the voice went funny because of a signal connection and it sounded like a demon.
00:03:08.460 Regardless, the industry that they're in is a satanic industry.
00:03:13.260 Like, let's just be real, you know.
00:03:14.860 Is it anything, when I'm in satan, I'm not saying they're satan worshippers.
00:03:17.300 No, not necessarily.
00:03:18.480 But is there anything that is in there that will bring you closer to the religion, bring you closer to the God, God consciousness?
00:03:23.800 No.
00:03:24.540 So, regardless if it sounded or not, but even if we look at it from an angle where we believe in the unseen, which is the jinn and shaitan, etc., it's possible.
00:03:33.680 It's possible.
00:03:34.320 They want you to sign it.
00:03:35.800 Why?
00:03:36.280 Because that's going to lead you further astray.
00:03:38.600 Now, Krept and Conan, like I said before, they are fellow believers, yeah?
00:03:42.640 Yes, they may commit certain sins, etc., and I'm not trying to enlighten the sin.
00:03:46.620 I'm not trying to make it seem like, no, it's calm.
00:03:48.320 No, I'm not seeing that.
00:03:49.280 What I'm trying to say is, no matter what sin you're committing, carry on praying your sabbat.
00:03:52.980 Krept and Conan, carry on your salah, your zakat.
00:03:55.320 People say they see you in the masjid.
00:03:56.620 Carry on.
00:03:57.060 I don't care what sins you're committing, brother.
00:03:58.800 You carry on going.
00:04:00.420 You carry on doing your bit.
00:04:02.540 Don't ever think, I'm sinning, I'm doing this.
00:04:04.100 No, no, no, no.
00:04:04.760 Because I think the starting point where maybe you going down this route is because shaitan wanted it.
00:04:10.080 You know, and you said it yourself.
00:04:11.100 We still signed it.
00:04:12.360 Because it might be the fact that before this interview, you were talking about your life, that it was really, really hard for you, etc.
00:04:17.700 You know, your stepdad and I think your mom killed or something along those lines, etc.
00:04:21.620 And you was in a distress moment, etc.
00:04:24.640 I understand sometimes what happens is we don't have enough tawakul in Allah.
00:04:27.980 Believe me, Allah's created the heavens and the earth.
00:04:30.140 Allah's created the universe.
00:04:32.960 And the billions of creatures in it.
00:04:36.000 It is not hard for Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to give you a better way out than the music industry.
00:04:41.180 But we will fall short.
00:04:42.940 Sometimes we have our tawakul in the world, the affairs, and we're like, no, you know, this is a way out for me.
00:04:46.420 I need to make it, etc.
00:04:47.160 You may have taken that path.
00:04:48.620 It still doesn't make you a bad person.
00:04:49.980 Yes, you're sinning.
00:04:50.600 We're all sinners.
00:04:51.480 The point that I'm trying to make here is that, look, having trust in Allah's key.
00:04:55.540 Because you was in a crossroad and you had this record label thing, etc.
00:04:59.460 Getting signed.
00:05:00.160 Your videos went viral, etc.
00:05:01.920 So it's like the temptation of the dunya got the best of you.
00:05:05.660 It all happens.
00:05:06.800 Don't ever feel that you cannot come out of it.
00:05:08.960 And we ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to guide you and myself and everybody as well, inshaAllah.
00:05:12.180 So I just wanted to make that clear.
00:05:13.660 One thing that I like is that, a lot of people might say they're just saying it for the sake of it.
00:05:17.060 Like, you know, some, not all, like, you know, Somalis, you like to say, wallahi billahi tillahi.
00:05:21.340 I think it's a good thing.
00:05:22.100 You know why?
00:05:22.440 Because there's a scholar who said, it is more beloved to me that a person may lie and say wallahi, or uqsun billahi, or wallahi billahi tillahi.
00:05:30.500 Then a person who is a mushrik, who takes it off by his deity and tells the truth.
00:05:35.600 Listen carefully.
00:05:36.420 It is more beloved to me, and I think this makes perfect sense, and this is Tawheed, that, obviously lying is haram, we shouldn't.
00:05:41.380 But it is more beloved that somebody says wallahi, and he's lying, it is better than someone saying, I swear by my cow god.
00:05:50.320 And he's telling the truth.
00:05:52.000 Yeah?
00:05:52.320 It's like, for example, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala talks about in the Quran, for those when the sahaba attacked the caravan,
00:05:57.620 and they said, oh, it was the holy mums, he said, it may have been the holy mums, but what they're doing, the mushriks are doing, is worse.
00:06:03.640 So what we're saying is, in this very instance, that it is good that he has the, he takes an oath by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
00:06:09.980 So I'm just saying that, in a nutshell, just to wrap up, brothers and sisters, is that, very, very important, having tawakal in Allah, and put your trust in Allah,
00:06:16.900 so you do not fall for the fame and the money and the glory at the cost of signing your life away sometimes.
00:06:22.540 Because you might be going and thinking, no, I'm just doing music, okay, music's not permissible, etc., whatever it may be.
00:06:26.940 But then the things that you're going to do, they might get you to say, you know, when you're doing a trap, do a sign.
00:06:31.400 You don't know what the sign is, it might be satanic.
00:06:33.380 So the industry is corrupt within itself.
00:06:35.280 So in a nutshell, this is what I wanted to share with you guys, brothers and sisters.
00:06:38.300 Let's be conscious in Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala's, who Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is, and his tawakal.
00:06:45.080 He's the one that provides.
00:06:46.180 You'll ever think, I have to go out my way.
00:06:48.100 This is the biggest tricks we all do with our marriage, with our business, with our friendship, with our entire life.
00:06:52.300 We think we need to take matters into our own hands, because as if Allah's not performing.
00:06:56.380 No, you're not performing.
00:06:57.900 You do your bit, you fix your affairs with Allah, Allah will fix your affairs with the dunya, inshallah.
00:07:02.840 Till next time.
00:07:03.640 As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu.
00:07:05.320 Please share this to Brother Crepton Corona, inshallah.
00:07:07.660 They watch and inshallah they bend it.
00:07:08.680 Oh, and just before I finish, it reminds me of the companion of the Prophet, peace be upon him, who used to drink alcohol.
00:07:13.500 And the Sahabas used to tell him not to do it.
00:07:15.460 Not to do it.
00:07:15.960 Until one day, he used to drink alcohol.
00:07:17.860 Imagine in front of the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
00:07:19.360 And this is a companion who went to the war, like Battle of Badr, Uhud, etc.
00:07:23.360 You know, he's performed as well in that aspect.
00:07:26.220 And one day, I think Umar ibn Khattab cursed him.
00:07:28.020 He said, may Allah curse you.
00:07:29.320 And the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, stopped him.
00:07:30.860 The Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, didn't say, he's an alcoholic, he's this, he's that.
00:07:32.900 He said, don't say, don't curse him.
00:07:38.680 They may be sinning and doing zina and alcohol and riba or this, that.
00:07:42.260 Do not take away the love of God they might have just because they're in that sin.
00:07:46.600 And once again, we ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to keep us firm and away from this, inshallah.
00:07:50.000 And we make dua that our brothers crept in corner, inshallah.
00:07:52.420 They know what they're doing.
00:07:53.880 We don't need to get into detail.
00:07:55.080 That Allah guides them, guides us, inshallah.
00:07:56.760 Till next time.
00:07:57.520 Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
