00:01:03.200 The events that occurred
00:01:05.420 So like why did you find the need
00:01:08.920 So take me to like a youngster's mind
00:01:11.120 Yeah because obviously we want to understand
00:01:12.960 Where you guys are coming from
00:01:14.040 And I do have some kind of like
00:01:16.260 I can relate to you in certain ways
00:01:19.600 In my jahili I never saw drugs
00:01:21.520 I knew people that did yeah
00:01:22.740 They were like you know sell heroin and crack
00:01:25.020 All this kind of stuff
00:01:25.720 But I was never involved myself
00:01:27.840 Do you get it?
00:01:28.420 So I don't know the in-depths
00:01:30.120 But I can kind of relate to you
00:01:31.860 So what makes youngsters want to go down that route?
00:01:35.800 What made you want to go down that route?
00:01:38.320 What made you want to go down that route?
00:01:39.940 For example
00:01:40.380 In year 9 was literally my turning point
00:01:42.800 In year 9
00:01:43.580 I was carrying in school
00:01:45.860 All that kind of stuff
00:01:47.620 Literally in year 9 was my turning point
00:01:49.820 Okay
00:01:50.720 In year 9 was my turning point
00:01:51.820 I didn't go to school in year 10
00:01:53.320 I got kicked out of school
00:01:54.240 Literally I went to centre
00:01:55.900 I got kicked out of centre
00:01:56.840 They referred me to another school
00:01:58.680 Okay
00:01:59.500 I went to another school
00:02:00.280 I got kicked out for the same reason
00:02:01.600 Yeah
00:02:02.040 Because they found a lot of stuff
00:02:03.080 That I wasn't meant to have on me
00:02:04.880 Yeah
00:02:05.280 Year 11 I did my GCSEs
00:02:07.100 Didn't get no qualifications
00:02:08.400 Yeah
00:02:09.020 But slowly, slowly
00:02:10.400 I picked up what I wanted to do
00:02:11.580 To be honest
00:02:12.720 I wanted to be an actor
00:02:13.580 Okay
00:02:14.360 I wanted to be an actor
00:02:15.100 But obviously that couldn't
00:02:16.420 Once I got into his life
00:02:19.000 I couldn't be an actor
00:02:20.840 Okay
00:02:21.400 Going into
00:02:23.920 Well I go into gang life
00:02:26.600 It's literally not
00:02:27.560 One of the things that you want to go to
00:02:29.880 Yeah
00:02:30.340 It's easy money
00:02:31.180 But yet again
00:02:31.920 I've applied for so many jobs
00:02:33.560 Just literally gave up
00:02:36.460 Okay
00:02:37.780 So you know when you said you was carrying
00:02:39.680 Were we talking about weapons or drugs or both?
00:02:42.480 Weapon, drugs
00:02:43.380 Okay
00:02:44.240 So
00:02:45.160 Okay
00:02:46.220 What do you think
00:02:47.220 Is it just like
00:02:48.360 Okay for example
00:02:49.060 That you gave up
00:02:50.220 On not finding a job
00:02:51.440 Is it the money
00:02:52.380 Is it
00:02:52.860 Is there
00:02:53.240 Any other influences
00:02:54.580 Like what would you say
00:02:56.340 That influences a young person's mind
00:02:57.860 To go down there
00:02:58.500 Besides
00:02:58.920 Besides making money
00:03:00.540 Okay
00:03:01.220 Why do you want to make money
00:03:02.440 The point is this
00:03:03.300 Like
00:03:03.900 Everyone wants to make money
00:03:05.700 But why do you want to make
00:03:07.640 That amount of money
00:03:08.580 Why do you want to make fast money
00:03:10.180 What's
00:03:11.020 The reason behind it
00:03:12.920 Is there
00:03:13.280 Like
00:03:13.840 What is it
00:03:14.720 Is the lifestyle
00:03:15.240 What is it
00:03:15.900 Basically the lifestyle
00:03:17.100 You go different trips
00:03:18.080 Yeah
00:03:18.640 Up
00:03:18.900 Like counting
00:03:20.220 Like
00:03:20.480 Go out in Manchester
00:03:21.320 Leeds
00:03:22.160 And all the kind of stuff
00:03:23.180 To go pick up
00:03:23.980 To go sell
00:03:24.520 Yeah
00:03:25.020 What I did
00:03:25.900 I went to go pick up
00:03:26.760 And stuff like that
00:03:27.620 Yeah
00:03:27.980 You'll get
00:03:28.760 For example
00:03:29.460 Let's say
00:03:29.880 You'll get around
00:03:30.640 900 a day
00:03:31.980 Yeah
00:03:32.640 What I got
00:03:33.400 What I did
00:03:34.400 Was
00:03:34.640 I had
00:03:35.100 500
00:03:35.980 Yeah
00:03:36.840 A day
00:03:37.240 Which is each day
00:03:38.080 I was doing
00:03:38.480 From Monday
00:03:39.140 Monday, Saturday
00:03:40.560 Sundays
00:03:41.160 Yeah
00:03:41.700 And then by the end of Sunday
00:03:43.140 I'll have probably
00:03:44.060 By like
00:03:44.680 1k
00:03:45.540 Okay
00:03:46.260 1k or more
00:03:47.200 Yeah
00:03:47.740 And for that
00:03:49.580 I don't want to
00:03:50.840 Give it to my family
00:03:52.020 And that
00:03:52.420 Because they'll ask questions
00:03:53.300 Whether they get
00:03:53.700 This or that
00:03:54.260 So I just kept it to myself
00:03:56.560 Literally
00:03:57.260 The clothes I'm wearing
00:03:58.380 And everything
00:03:59.060 Was
00:03:59.440 By
00:04:00.140 What I
00:04:01.000 What I got
00:04:01.880 When I was young
00:04:03.500 I didn't have that
00:04:03.940 Kind of stuff
00:04:04.460 Parents wouldn't listen
00:04:05.580 Yeah
00:04:06.060 When I say
00:04:08.040 I want this
00:04:08.720 This that
00:04:09.120 Obviously I understand
00:04:10.480 Sometimes they
00:04:11.300 Can't get it
00:04:12.140 Sometimes they can
00:04:12.840 Yeah
00:04:13.200 At the same time
00:04:14.480 I just wanted
00:04:14.880 To do it
00:04:15.580 By myself
00:04:16.180 So when I hit
00:04:17.580 At the age of 16
00:04:18.740 16 was literally
00:04:20.300 Downhill for me
00:04:21.300 When I was 16
00:04:22.680 Getting in trouble
00:04:24.240 By authorities
00:04:24.980 Getting arrested
00:04:25.980 Getting stopped
00:04:26.900 Running
00:04:27.420 Causing problems
00:04:28.460 Basically I say
00:04:29.660 It's like
00:04:30.040 Post-World War
00:04:31.120 I was kind of
00:04:32.340 Involved in
00:04:32.780 Post-World War
00:04:33.460 Yeah
00:04:33.820 Things didn't go well
00:04:35.280 I had my friend
00:04:36.140 Died in my arm
00:04:37.140 I had friends
00:04:38.540 Literally die
00:04:39.580 Each day
00:04:40.580 Someone's dying
00:04:41.220 Someone's dying
00:04:42.440 From my area
00:04:43.560 Well life's not safe
00:04:45.660 It's not safe
00:04:46.400 Knowing that
00:04:46.880 You're going to sleep
00:04:47.460 You're not safe
00:04:47.960 Waking up
00:04:48.420 You're not safe
00:04:48.900 Every time when I'm on the road
00:04:50.540 Looking back
00:04:51.900 Just looking back
00:04:52.800 Every single time
00:04:53.460 Looking back
00:04:54.120 To check if anyone
00:04:55.440 Literally I had
00:04:57.040 A couple people
00:04:57.720 When I went to
00:04:58.800 Another area
00:05:00.580 That I was meant to be
00:05:01.480 Yeah
00:05:01.800 One of the brothers
00:05:03.100 Came behind
00:05:03.600 And asked me
00:05:04.080 What are you doing
00:05:04.740 Brothers
00:05:05.960 What do you mean
00:05:06.500 Brothers
00:05:06.780 Are they Muslim
00:05:07.640 No
00:05:07.960 They were Muslim
00:05:08.960 Muslim brothers
00:05:09.500 But involved in
00:05:10.560 What I was involved
00:05:11.140 Yeah
00:05:11.420 They approached me
00:05:12.700 What are you doing
00:05:13.280 I was like
00:05:13.720 I'm just doing
00:05:14.900 What I'm doing
00:05:15.340 They asked me
00:05:15.760 What area you're from
00:05:16.420 They said
00:05:17.200 What area I'm from
00:05:17.960 First thing you knew
00:05:19.600 They took out something
00:05:21.040 Wow
00:05:21.740 What I had to do
00:05:22.660 Was run
00:05:23.080 What I had to do
00:05:24.620 Was at least fight back
00:05:25.580 Yeah
00:05:26.220 With me
00:05:26.800 I don't run
00:05:28.180 I don't fight
00:05:29.320 But knowing
00:05:30.900 That you'll die
00:05:31.980 Yeah
00:05:32.620 If you've got nothing
00:05:33.840 On you
00:05:34.180 You'll die
00:05:34.820 100%
00:05:35.520 Guaranteed
00:05:36.620 Yeah
00:05:37.000 With me
00:05:38.360 With polices
00:05:40.260 I don't say anything
00:05:41.480 Because with problems
00:05:43.700 On the street
00:05:44.260 Knowing that
00:05:45.340 If you snake a brother out
00:05:46.960 Yeah
00:05:47.280 The trouble will still
00:05:49.560 Go on
00:05:49.940 Go on
00:05:50.320 Yeah
00:05:50.780 But slowly
00:05:52.100 I'm trying to
00:05:52.480 Get myself out of it
00:05:53.840 That's why I'm going
00:05:54.360 To different places
00:05:55.240 Where I'm going
00:05:55.940 I'm going to go
00:05:56.820 To a different place
00:05:57.500 And I just don't want
00:05:58.140 To say where
00:05:58.520 Yeah
00:05:58.800 Just in case
00:05:59.520 Okay
00:06:01.160 So would you say
00:06:02.940 Like
00:06:03.440 Obviously you're young
00:06:04.920 And you're seeing
00:06:05.760 Like for example
00:06:06.540 Things that are seen
00:06:07.960 As like
00:06:08.780 Cool
00:06:09.460 Or
00:06:09.900 How you should be
00:06:11.040 So do you think
00:06:11.640 Like society
00:06:12.400 Certain music
00:06:14.460 Certain videos
00:06:15.980 Do they have
00:06:16.920 Do they have
00:06:18.080 An impact
00:06:18.540 On youngsters
00:06:19.080 Music videos
00:06:21.020 Yeah
00:06:21.400 They've got a lot
00:06:21.840 Of impact
00:06:22.140 On youngsters
00:06:22.560 Because
00:06:22.940 I was listening
00:06:24.820 To music videos
00:06:25.560 That were based
00:06:26.300 On my area
00:06:26.960 Finding another area
00:06:28.440 Just literally
00:06:28.980 Just sending shots
00:06:30.300 Via music
00:06:31.120 It's like
00:06:32.200 They're getting a message
00:06:33.060 A message through
00:06:34.260 Yeah
00:06:34.720 To other people
00:06:35.660 And get a message
00:06:36.360 Through youngsters
00:06:36.860 As in like
00:06:37.480 Most of the music videos
00:06:39.000 Are saying that
00:06:39.360 You can get
00:06:39.800 This worth of money
00:06:40.920 This worth of thing
00:06:42.160 Literally
00:06:43.380 You can get anything
00:06:44.260 You want
00:06:44.700 With that worth of money
00:06:45.600 Like money gets you anything
00:06:46.960 But the amount
00:06:49.220 Of the money
00:06:50.020 That we're getting
00:06:50.800 Is haram money
00:06:51.820 Obviously
00:06:52.140 Yeah
00:06:52.520 Like knowing
00:06:53.580 That you're making
00:06:54.000 Haram money
00:06:54.480 Instead of halal money
00:06:55.220 Yeah
00:06:55.640 It's a big difference
00:06:56.800 Yeah
00:06:57.240 But it's got a lot
00:06:58.260 Of impact
00:06:58.660 In youngsters
00:06:59.600 A lot of impact
00:07:00.640 Okay so
00:07:02.380 So you're saying
00:07:04.180 Like you know
00:07:04.500 Music drill
00:07:05.180 Is it drill music
00:07:05.840 Drill music
00:07:06.460 Yeah
00:07:06.720 I think that plays a role
00:07:07.680 Yeah
00:07:07.900 Drill music plays a lot
00:07:09.480 That's the only
00:07:10.580 Drill music
00:07:11.280 Are different
00:07:11.860 There is
00:07:12.680 Yeah
00:07:13.460 Yeah and the thing
00:07:13.900 People just say
00:07:14.920 Okay yeah
00:07:15.340 But it's music
00:07:15.880 It's an art
00:07:16.780 You know
00:07:17.700 Can we say that
00:07:18.380 This is an art
00:07:19.540 That's killing people
00:07:20.380 Yeah
00:07:21.000 Drill music
00:07:22.160 Drill music
00:07:22.220 Exactly
00:07:23.220 You know
00:07:23.600 And it's having
00:07:24.620 This impact on you
00:07:25.300 Because at the end of the day
00:07:26.040 You're being exposed to this
00:07:27.480 You know
00:07:27.680 This kind of music
00:07:28.360 And it's a hype
00:07:28.980 It's a gas
00:07:29.400 You know
00:07:29.560 Especially music
00:07:30.140 Music has a massive effect
00:07:31.260 On your
00:07:32.280 On your brain
00:07:33.160 I used to listen to music
00:07:33.940 Yeah
00:07:34.180 And it's like a drug
00:07:36.220 You know
00:07:36.560 I can remember
00:07:37.220 When
00:07:37.680 You know
00:07:38.320 We're going to go
00:07:38.780 Fight
00:07:39.360 Or something like that
00:07:40.160 Probably just listen to
00:07:41.140 A certain music
00:07:41.600 You just get hyped
00:07:42.220 And I didn't do drugs
00:07:43.300 My friend would do drugs
00:07:44.360 I didn't do drugs
00:07:45.240 I got hyped and gassed
00:07:46.540 Of the music
00:07:47.040 And I'm thinking
00:07:47.520 Imagine if I had drugs
00:07:48.720 If I took drugs
00:07:49.320 On top of that
00:07:49.920 It's like a person
00:07:52.360 Who's flipped
00:07:53.040 He's ready to kill
00:07:54.120 Do anything
00:07:54.640 Do you get it
00:07:55.080 So I think music plays a role
00:07:56.840 What about like
00:07:58.640 For example
00:07:59.120 You see in these music videos
00:08:00.060 All these girls
00:08:00.840 And stuff like that
00:08:01.700 You know
00:08:02.420 As a young man
00:08:03.180 Do you think that plays
00:08:04.580 The pressure
00:08:04.900 Because at the end of the day
00:08:05.700 Most of the times
00:08:07.480 You know
00:08:07.860 As men
00:08:08.640 You know
00:08:09.020 Our weakness is women
00:08:09.780 Yeah
00:08:10.200 And those youngsters
00:08:11.800 Feel like
00:08:12.220 Okay you know what
00:08:12.900 For me
00:08:13.500 In order for me to
00:08:14.560 Get that kind of girls
00:08:16.840 Or for example
00:08:17.820 Would you say
00:08:19.100 Like
00:08:19.360 The way certain girls are
00:08:21.880 Like
00:08:22.220 They weren't like
00:08:24.080 A bad boy
00:08:24.920 Yeah
00:08:25.600 Because I'm trying to understand
00:08:27.000 The factors that's causing people
00:08:28.460 These trigger elements
00:08:29.660 Do you think that plays a role
00:08:30.860 It has
00:08:33.780 It has roles
00:08:34.800 It doesn't have roles
00:08:35.480 But
00:08:35.900 With the role that it's got
00:08:37.180 Yeah
00:08:37.680 Girls at our age
00:08:38.820 Yeah
00:08:39.280 They're like
00:08:39.820 For example
00:08:40.940 They'll go from a footballer
00:08:42.260 To a roadman
00:08:43.580 Yeah
00:08:44.080 Girls like
00:08:45.520 In our area
00:08:46.240 Some of them
00:08:46.800 They're about that
00:08:47.560 Like some of them
00:08:48.140 Are not
00:08:48.440 Some of them
00:08:48.940 Are literally holding
00:08:50.020 Some of them
00:08:50.520 Are not holding
00:08:51.100 Yeah
00:08:51.660 What do you mean by that
00:08:52.820 Holding
00:08:53.080 Basically like
00:08:54.320 We'll tell them to hold
00:08:55.340 Stuff for us
00:08:56.060 Oh okay
00:08:56.580 Yes
00:08:56.880 And just leave it
00:08:58.980 Until someone
00:08:59.380 Picks it up
00:09:00.260 Yeah
00:09:00.540 Or sometimes
00:09:01.800 We'll just put them
00:09:02.440 On the street
00:09:02.840 And they'll go
00:09:03.320 Give them money for us
00:09:04.580 But with girls
00:09:06.160 I don't want to say
00:09:08.320 What it is
00:09:08.780 But
00:09:09.060 They just want something
00:09:10.960 And then you give money
00:09:11.700 After that
00:09:12.240 If you understand
00:09:13.680 What I'm trying to say
00:09:14.220 Okay
00:09:14.920 Say that again
00:09:16.020 I don't know how to
00:09:18.340 Say it properly
00:09:18.800 But
00:09:19.080 It's like
00:09:19.820 You put them on the street
00:09:22.160 Yes
00:09:22.620 Someone picks them up
00:09:23.440 And then you give them money
00:09:25.140 Basically
00:09:25.860 Pimping
00:09:26.780 Yeah basically
00:09:27.580 Okay
00:09:28.080 But that's not
00:09:28.600 What we do
00:09:29.440 So people do that as well
00:09:31.600 That's what people do
00:09:32.340 Okay
00:09:32.860 So people do
00:09:33.720 And that's how
00:09:34.300 They make their money
00:09:35.080 Oh okay
00:09:36.220 Mostly about people
00:09:37.240 Where I live
00:09:38.640 The girls that I know
00:09:39.520 That I've worked with
00:09:40.320 Yeah
00:09:40.680 Or like
00:09:41.520 We just tell them
00:09:42.400 To hold this
00:09:43.060 Just leave me in the house
00:09:44.040 And then we'll come
00:09:44.720 And pick it up
00:09:45.260 Yeah
00:09:45.720 Because no
00:09:46.140 Because some of the police
00:09:47.300 Are well known to us
00:09:48.560 That they know where we live
00:09:49.540 Yeah
00:09:49.960 And like they've got warrants
00:09:50.980 Yeah
00:09:51.620 To like
00:09:51.940 Search the house
00:09:53.000 Yeah
00:09:53.480 I had a lot of problems
00:09:54.480 With authorities
00:09:55.020 A lot
00:09:55.660 Like I'm well known to
00:09:57.540 Most of them
00:09:58.100 That are knowing me
00:09:58.880 They know my
00:09:59.440 Street name
00:10:00.360 They know everything
00:10:00.880 That I'll do
00:10:02.200 Like I've got
00:10:03.400 Right now I've got one of the cases
00:10:04.640 That I've got
00:10:05.140 I've did something
00:10:06.800 And then I've got a case on that
00:10:08.340 And I've got
00:10:09.140 A warrant
00:10:10.160 Like every time
00:10:10.680 They've got the rights
00:10:12.000 They've got the rights
00:10:12.940 To stop me
00:10:13.380 And search
00:10:14.180 Just in case
00:10:15.140 Just to keep me off
00:10:16.240 Like I'm working with one of the police
00:10:17.660 Yeah
00:10:18.220 His Muslim brother
00:10:19.560 Like works in the
00:10:20.560 Massage in
00:10:21.560 Yeah
00:10:22.000 Works there
00:10:23.480 And we just work
00:10:25.200 He's just helping me
00:10:26.020 Get off the streets as well
00:10:27.020 Okay
00:10:27.560 He knows my family
00:10:28.880 I know him
00:10:29.400 That he just doesn't want me
00:10:31.260 To go down that road
00:10:32.080 Because no one
00:10:32.680 At the end of the day
00:10:33.540 Is that I have two years out
00:10:34.680 Prison
00:10:35.540 Or you're deaf
00:10:36.700 Okay
00:10:37.320 Okay
00:10:38.480 So
00:10:38.860 Okay
00:10:39.420 You was involved in gangs
00:10:40.700 Yeah
00:10:40.960 So did you
00:10:41.540 You were selling
00:10:42.860 Yeah
00:10:43.820 So things went a bit
00:10:45.000 Wrong
00:10:45.500 What happened
00:10:45.980 So how
00:10:46.500 Tell me
00:10:47.260 How it
00:10:48.480 What happened
00:10:49.440 Like
00:10:50.120 Maybe not
00:10:51.600 In detail
00:10:53.000 But tell me
00:10:55.060 What
00:10:55.320 What kind of happened
00:10:56.340 In an actual
00:10:57.180 Like what you was doing
00:10:58.120 What happened to your friend
00:10:59.600 So we went to
00:11:00.900 An area
00:11:02.200 I'm not going to say
00:11:02.980 What area
00:11:03.360 We went to an area
00:11:04.040 Yeah
00:11:04.800 We saw one of
00:11:06.400 Our
00:11:06.700 Our enemies
00:11:07.900 Like we knew him
00:11:09.320 He knew us
00:11:09.980 We was going to a store
00:11:11.320 To get something
00:11:12.040 Because certain stores
00:11:12.840 That have things
00:11:13.700 You have to go to
00:11:14.240 A certain store
00:11:14.660 To go and get it
00:11:15.380 Yeah
00:11:15.660 So we went to a store
00:11:16.760 In our area
00:11:18.080 But they said
00:11:18.980 They didn't have it
00:11:19.440 So you have to go to that store
00:11:20.380 Knowing that
00:11:21.260 Us knowing that
00:11:22.440 It was dangerous
00:11:22.960 For us to go there
00:11:23.700 Yeah
00:11:24.000 But we still had
00:11:24.860 That mentality to go
00:11:25.560 But none of us
00:11:26.220 Were carrying
00:11:26.600 None of us
00:11:27.020 Had anything on us
00:11:27.800 Okay
00:11:28.400 So
00:11:28.620 None of us
00:11:30.260 Had anything basically
00:11:31.020 So we went to the store
00:11:32.240 We saw one of the
00:11:33.200 We saw one of the guys
00:11:34.440 Walk out
00:11:34.920 What we did was
00:11:36.480 He told us to come
00:11:37.520 Around the corner
00:11:38.020 We went around the corner
00:11:39.220 Things happened
00:11:41.060 Took things off him
00:11:42.540 So why
00:11:42.920 Did you go to meet this guy
00:11:44.340 No we didn't go to meet
00:11:45.200 Oh you just saw him
00:11:47.160 We just saw him
00:11:47.740 Oh okay
00:11:48.240 We just literally
00:11:48.540 Just saw him
00:11:49.140 Yeah
00:11:49.500 He told us to come
00:11:50.720 Around this corner
00:11:51.140 Because we thought
00:11:52.280 There were people
00:11:52.720 Around there
00:11:53.140 But literally
00:11:53.680 There was no people
00:11:54.260 There was three of us
00:11:54.840 And one of them
00:11:55.320 He thought he could
00:11:56.240 Oh okay
00:11:57.640 One second
00:11:58.140 So you happened to see him
00:11:59.680 Yeah
00:12:00.040 You have kind of
00:12:01.180 Like an exchange
00:12:02.120 Outercation
00:12:02.980 And then he says
00:12:03.600 To come around the corner
00:12:04.360 Yeah
00:12:04.700 And you guys go around the corner
00:12:06.000 Yes
00:12:06.280 Because there was three of us
00:12:07.420 And there was one of them
00:12:08.540 So he thought
00:12:09.540 That he could defeat us
00:12:10.320 But knowing what we had
00:12:11.160 And knowing what he was
00:12:12.120 What my friend did
00:12:13.700 Was
00:12:13.920 Obviously
00:12:15.080 Took something off him
00:12:16.580 And then took another thing
00:12:17.740 He gave us
00:12:18.280 The guy that we took off him
00:12:19.540 Yeah
00:12:19.860 Gave us three warnings
00:12:20.600 Is either you give it back
00:12:22.400 Or you leave it
00:12:23.780 Is either you give it back
00:12:24.840 Or we leave
00:12:25.400 But knowing as
00:12:26.860 The streets
00:12:27.880 We do what we want
00:12:29.260 Like just to get money
00:12:30.720 We just do what we want
00:12:31.640 Yeah
00:12:31.960 The warnings
00:12:33.260 Don't literally scare us
00:12:34.480 But when something happens
00:12:35.780 Then I leave
00:12:36.440 And I had this time to change
00:12:38.080 So okay
00:12:38.960 So alright
00:12:39.520 So you took this guy's stash
00:12:41.660 You took his line
00:12:43.900 Yeah
00:12:44.840 So this is the line
00:12:46.740 So people
00:12:47.500 If I'm not mistaken
00:12:48.280 Correct me
00:12:48.720 They'll have a line
00:12:50.160 They'll build this line
00:12:51.300 So this line is worth
00:12:52.320 Money now
00:12:53.200 Because it's worth a lot of money
00:12:54.940 So depending on the line
00:12:56.020 So if you take the line
00:12:58.120 Of that person
00:12:58.860 Because you need to understand
00:12:59.560 These people who are addicts
00:13:01.160 They know that specific number
00:13:02.640 And depending on what
00:13:04.160 What stuff you sell
00:13:05.640 Yeah
00:13:06.160 If it's good
00:13:06.820 You know
00:13:07.720 White is crack

00:13:18.560 And
00:13:20.040 Yeah so basically
00:13:21.860 And then afterwards
00:13:23.020 You took it off him
00:13:24.560 And he gave you a warning
00:13:25.180 He said either
00:13:25.800 Yeah we give it back
00:13:27.540 Yeah
00:13:28.020 And we leave you
00:13:29.280 If you don't give it back
00:13:30.260 You want to come off to you
00:13:31.380 Okay
00:13:32.240 And what did you guys do
00:13:33.000 We didn't give it back
00:13:33.860 Did you attack him
00:13:35.200 Yeah we attacked him
00:13:36.020 Yeah

00:13:48.760 The end of it basically

00:14:15.420 Yeah
00:14:15.920 But I wasn't
00:14:17.000 Going to go apart
00:14:17.820 I left that to the side
00:14:19.180 I just wanted to go my own way
00:14:20.340 And just make what I'm doing
00:14:21.460 So what did you do
00:14:22.880 Just selling
00:14:23.920 Just selling little stuff
00:14:25.060 But get big money out of it
00:14:26.560 Yeah
00:14:26.760 What he had
00:14:27.860 Was worth a lot
00:14:29.020 Yeah
00:14:29.380 Literally a lot
00:14:30.000 Yeah
00:14:30.380 A lot of money
00:14:31.200 Like what he had
00:14:32.300 Okay
00:14:33.260 I didn't want to go
00:14:34.200 And sell the extra extra stuff
00:14:36.340 Yeah
00:14:36.720 So I just left that side
00:14:37.600 I just sold what I was selling
00:14:38.620 Yeah
00:14:39.480 A couple days later
00:14:40.060 We got a phone call
00:14:40.760 From my friend
00:14:41.340 From my friend's
00:14:42.680 Girlfriend
00:14:43.780 Yeah
00:14:44.500 One of the boys
00:14:46.100 Knew his girlfriend
00:14:46.920 Okay
00:14:47.520 Got another girl
00:14:48.160 To go beat
00:14:48.760 His girlfriend up
00:14:50.000 And she got beaten up
00:14:51.360 So bad
00:14:52.280 She was in hospital
00:14:53.300 For two weeks
00:14:54.040 So they
00:14:54.600 They clocked who he was
00:14:56.160 Yeah they clocked
00:14:56.620 Was it the one with the mask
00:14:57.580 Or without the mask
00:14:58.180 No
00:14:58.600 The one without the mask
00:14:59.640 So without the mask
00:15:00.340 Yeah
00:15:00.560 Okay so
00:15:01.220 Who he was
00:15:02.240 And they got another girl
00:15:03.740 To beat his girlfriend
00:15:04.320 Yeah
00:15:04.580 To beat his girlfriend up
00:15:05.460 Okay
00:15:06.180 And a couple days later
00:15:07.340 Same thing happened to my friend
00:15:09.460 And he passed away
00:15:10.640 So how
00:15:11.520 Do you know how he died
00:15:12.700 Like what
00:15:13.180 They stabbed him
00:15:14.480 They stabbed him
00:15:15.920 Yeah
00:15:16.140 How old was he
00:15:17.860 Yeah
00:15:18.400 How old was he
00:15:19.060 He was my age
00:15:19.660 How old was he
00:15:20.940 17
00:15:21.520 18
00:15:22.060 Yeah so he was
00:15:25.040 He was stabbed to death
00:15:25.940 Yeah
00:15:26.340 And he was telling me
00:15:27.120 That he accepted Islam
00:15:28.680 He accepted Islam
00:15:29.980 Two months ago
00:15:30.580 You was giving him dawah
00:15:32.200 No
00:15:32.780 We took him
00:15:33.700 To our local massage
00:15:34.940 Oh he just wanted to
00:15:36.260 Accept him
00:15:36.620 It's quite
00:15:38.360 It's quite strange isn't it
00:15:39.600 Like for example
00:15:40.360 Like you know
00:15:41.720 You guys are Muslim
00:15:42.460 And this guy
00:15:44.340 Like you're even
00:15:45.120 Like it's like
00:15:46.380 You're doing dawah
00:15:46.980 Like you're doing dawah
00:15:48.200 But you're also
00:15:49.020 Doing the haram
00:15:50.320 So it just shows
00:15:50.980 Like there's like this
00:15:51.800 For the youngsters
00:15:53.540 They're like
00:15:54.000 It's like
00:15:54.500 They have their deen strong
00:15:56.320 Like kind of
00:15:57.300 They have that
00:15:58.120 Is that
00:15:58.420 That you know
00:15:59.160 Love for it
00:16:01.020 And at the same time
00:16:02.620 So it just shows
00:16:03.420 Like
00:16:03.720 Either they're
00:16:05.820 Absolute hypocrites
00:16:06.820 Or
00:16:07.380 They're just
00:16:08.380 Caught up in the system
00:16:09.320 You know
00:16:10.180 Like what would you say
00:16:11.140 Would you say
00:16:11.640 These people are just
00:16:12.300 Two faced
00:16:12.940 Like you know
00:16:13.720 Or would you say
00:16:15.060 Like somebody
00:16:15.700 Or ask you
00:16:16.180 And say
00:16:16.300 Okay how are you
00:16:17.040 Getting someone
00:16:17.860 To accept Islam
00:16:18.480 And at the same time
00:16:19.080 You're selling drugs
00:16:19.620 What would you say
00:16:20.340 That person
00:16:20.720 Would you say
00:16:21.220 That person
00:16:21.680 Yes I'm two faced
00:16:23.440 Or no
00:16:24.080 I'm just caught up
00:16:24.760 In the system
00:16:25.220 Like I don't
00:16:25.980 Like what would you say
00:16:27.380 Kind of two faced
00:16:29.140 Because you know
00:16:30.940 It's not accepted
00:16:32.320 But at the same time
00:16:33.540 You're still
00:16:34.000 Doing it
00:16:35.040 But is it
00:16:35.700 Because of desires
00:16:36.320 Yeah
00:16:36.880 So then it doesn't
00:16:37.680 Make you really two faced
00:16:38.480 It's just basically
00:16:40.000 You know
00:16:41.040 You're falling short
00:16:42.540 Because of
00:16:43.540 You know
00:16:44.200 Just certain society
00:16:45.680 Etc
00:16:46.040 The social pressures
00:16:46.900 Etc
00:16:47.280 So I don't think
00:16:48.500 It's two faced
00:16:48.780 Because I believe
00:16:49.200 You're genuinely
00:16:50.080 Like you love your deen
00:16:50.900 Yeah
00:16:51.260 But you're just
00:16:52.140 Caught up in the system
00:16:52.860 You know
00:16:53.220 Doing that
00:16:53.640 So how did you feel
00:16:54.800 When you heard that
00:16:55.320 You got killed
00:16:55.880 It broke my heart
00:16:57.360 Literally a day or two
00:16:58.300 I always didn't leave
00:17:00.360 The house
00:17:00.760 Nothing
00:17:01.120 Then I started figuring
00:17:02.040 I didn't tell my family
00:17:03.440 One of my other boys
00:17:04.500 That was covered up
00:17:05.240 Told his family
00:17:06.600 Immediately
00:17:07.320 Three to four days
00:17:08.880 He got sent out
00:17:10.080 Of the country
00:17:10.520 Because he told his mum
00:17:11.500 Everything about me
00:17:12.280 I kept it all to myself
00:17:13.980 I didn't trust anyone
00:17:14.800 Because when I tell my parents
00:17:16.800 Some of them
00:17:17.780 They don't listen to what I want
00:17:18.880 So I went to my auntie
00:17:20.220 I love my auntie
00:17:22.060 She listens to me
00:17:22.780 She listens to what I said
00:17:24.460 So she gathered my
00:17:25.460 My parents
00:17:26.700 And then she had a
00:17:28.000 Sat down with them
00:17:29.100 And told them
00:17:29.680 That it's the life
00:17:30.900 That your son's living
00:17:31.540 No one knew
00:17:32.260 Because my parents
00:17:33.580 Didn't accept
00:17:34.780 Like
00:17:35.140 They didn't
00:17:36.100 They didn't know
00:17:38.300 I was doing that kind of stuff
00:17:39.140 They thought I was
00:17:39.860 A good one
00:17:41.980 But little did they know
00:17:43.360 I was doing what I was doing
00:17:44.720 Around the areas
00:17:45.400 But with parents
00:17:46.940 All parents need to know
00:17:47.800 That when the kids
00:17:48.740 Are telling them something
00:17:49.600 They're in danger
00:17:50.680 Or let them listen
00:17:52.340 But with me
00:17:53.260 They didn't listen
00:17:53.820 So they still kept me here
00:17:55.060 They still kept me here
00:17:56.740 But
00:17:56.920 By next week
00:17:59.080 Inshallah
00:17:59.600 Yeah
00:18:00.600 No we need to make sure
00:18:02.180 You do
00:18:02.560 So
00:18:02.920 Yeah
00:18:03.500 Because you went to Birmingham
00:18:04.320 And I can remember
00:18:04.980 I think
00:18:05.520 Did you message me on Instagram
00:18:06.440 Yeah
00:18:06.760 You messaged me on Instagram
00:18:08.400 And then
00:18:08.920 I spoke to
00:18:10.040 I spoke to your auntie as well
00:18:11.840 Yeah
00:18:12.400 It's serious
00:18:13.280 If there's any parents
00:18:14.040 Watching this
00:18:14.460 Because
00:18:14.720 Sometimes we don't understand
00:18:16.640 The severity
00:18:17.220 Sometimes it's just like
00:18:18.080 Yeah okay
00:18:18.520 Yeah
00:18:18.880 And we feel like
00:18:19.740 Our kids
00:18:21.220 Exaggerate
00:18:22.560 You know
00:18:23.380 And this is important
00:18:24.300 Because this is your life
00:18:25.400 On the line
00:18:25.880 You know
00:18:26.100 Because if these people
00:18:27.560 Catch you
00:18:28.040 You know
00:18:28.340 Even me
00:18:29.120 I'll get
00:18:29.420 Concerned for you
00:18:30.300 Because you know
00:18:30.680 That's what I say to you
00:18:31.340 If you got home
00:18:32.340 Message me
00:18:32.840 Because you know
00:18:33.740 It's
00:18:34.200 I didn't
00:18:34.600 It's sad man
00:18:36.500 You know
00:18:36.740 Like
00:18:37.140 Have you repented
00:18:38.960 Yeah I've repented
00:18:40.560 Okay
00:18:42.420 So
00:18:43.160 Like I said before man
00:18:44.760 You know
00:18:45.400 If there's people watching this
00:18:46.540 You know
00:18:46.860 I gave a reminder
00:18:47.600 Yesterday as well
00:18:48.620 That
00:18:50.140 You need to understand
00:18:50.920 You know
00:18:51.160 These
00:18:51.480 Friends
00:18:52.240 Etc
00:18:52.800 Yes
00:18:53.200 No matter how much
00:18:53.920 They love you man
00:18:54.540 Look even your own mum
00:18:55.540 Your mum
00:18:57.480 Is the one that's going to
00:18:58.700 You know
00:18:58.940 If there's one person
00:18:59.940 That's going to cry
00:19:00.500 It's going to be your mum
00:19:01.440 And
00:19:02.360 Your mum's going to cry
00:19:03.340 For what a year
00:19:04.000 Two years
00:19:04.580 You're going to be forgotten
00:19:05.660 You know
00:19:06.140 It's
00:19:06.840 It's
00:19:07.420 Human nature
00:19:08.420 And
00:19:09.440 Let alone your friends
00:19:10.760 Yeah I've been to
00:19:11.860 You know
00:19:12.060 I was giving an example
00:19:12.700 Of one brother that I know
00:19:13.700 Who died
00:19:14.580 He didn't get killed
00:19:15.300 But he died
00:19:15.780 And these friends
00:19:17.340 At the funeral
00:19:18.040 How they were
00:19:18.800 Like it's
00:19:19.800 There was nothing
00:19:21.740 They ruined his life
00:19:22.740 In this life
00:19:24.300 And then
00:19:24.680 Even when they buried him
00:19:25.940 They were talking about girls
00:19:27.120 And linking up
00:19:27.840 And partying
00:19:28.400 That's how quick
00:19:29.540 Like
00:19:30.260 You just bury the guy
00:19:32.160 But that's how quick
00:19:33.200 They just forget you
00:19:33.900 And the postcode wars
00:19:35.080 That you're fighting over
00:19:36.000 It's just so strange
00:19:37.740 That you don't even
00:19:38.420 You're fighting over
00:19:39.420 Something that you don't own
00:19:40.440 It's something that's man-made
00:19:41.800 It's just an idea
00:19:44.640 You know
00:19:45.220 This is our area
00:19:46.200 Nothing belongs to you there
00:19:48.440 Yeah
00:19:49.060 You've just made up this
00:19:50.100 Imaginary world in your head
00:19:51.860 And you're living
00:19:52.580 It's like GTA
00:19:53.360 You're literally
00:19:53.900 In GTA
00:19:55.080 And you're thinking
00:19:56.040 You're something
00:19:56.720 And you don't own nothing
00:19:58.320 And you're killing people over
00:20:00.080 You're killing people over a postcode
00:20:01.500 Yeah
00:20:02.080 That's road sign
00:20:03.180 That says
00:20:03.620 Whatever postcode area it is
00:20:05.620 You don't even own that
00:20:07.540 And you're killing people
00:20:09.140 And the Prophet
00:20:09.620 Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
00:20:10.320 Said that
00:20:10.980 A day will come
00:20:11.760 Where the person that's killing
00:20:13.160 Doesn't know why he's killing
00:20:14.020 And the one who's being killed
00:20:15.060 Doesn't know why he's being killed for
00:20:16.720 You don't know why you're doing it
00:20:18.220 You're just doing it
00:20:18.860 Because of hype
00:20:19.480 And gas
00:20:20.320 And you think it's all happy days
00:20:21.640 And it's not
00:20:22.520 You know
00:20:22.840 You see
00:20:23.280 Like you know
00:20:23.760 Your friend has died
00:20:24.560 You know
00:20:25.280 If you go to prison
00:20:26.080 What happened
00:20:28.040 You're going to be in a box
00:20:29.100 Room
00:20:29.920 For all of your life
00:20:30.760 While your friends
00:20:31.500 They're probably not even
00:20:32.300 Going to come see you
00:20:32.920 They're going to forget about you
00:20:33.880 You know
00:20:34.600 And it's good that you've woken up
00:20:36.300 And understood that reality
00:20:37.260 You know
00:20:37.600 And it came at the cost
00:20:39.320 Of your friend dying
00:20:40.600 You know
00:20:41.200 It came at the cost
00:20:41.940 Of someone dying
00:20:42.580 And that could have been you
00:20:43.900 You know
00:20:44.360 You know that
00:20:45.120 That could have been you
00:20:45.860 And may Allah protect you
00:20:47.940 You know
00:20:48.160 Because I'm going to speak
00:20:49.220 To your mum as well
00:20:49.880 And that you need to
00:20:51.000 Leave the country
00:20:52.240 You know
00:20:52.700 Because at the end of the day
00:20:53.560 It's dangerous for you to be here
00:20:55.660 You know
00:20:56.000 It's dangerous
00:20:56.840 You can go somewhere else
00:20:58.140 But you know
00:20:58.580 You might get
00:20:59.100 Same influence
00:21:00.600 And obviously you said
00:21:01.600 That you don't want to do that
00:21:02.380 Because we influence you

00:24:09.340 I don't need to worry about nothing
00:24:11.120 When I'm driving my car

00:24:23.160 Earn their money
00:24:24.360 Etc
00:24:24.840 They all look for peace
00:24:27.400 That's the main fact in their life
00:24:28.620 They say
00:24:28.900 Oh we don't have peace
00:24:29.760 So you see
00:24:30.720 It all comes back to that
00:24:31.780 You can have
00:24:32.440 These people who don't do drugs
00:24:34.200 And maybe they might
00:24:34.860 Earn their money
00:24:35.620 Through

00:24:44.260 Whatever they're selling
00:24:44.760 They don't have peace
00:24:46.280 And that's what Allah says in the Quran
00:24:47.320 Only in the remembrance of Allah
00:24:48.780 Do hearts find peace
00:24:49.700 So Allah is saying that

00:24:53.040 Is in my remembrance
