00:03:16.000 What's up, guys?

00:03:16.000 We're here with the legendary AB, man.

00:03:18.000 Let's get into it.

00:03:19.000 Let's go!

00:04:10.000 A big one.

00:04:26.000 Hey! 0.99

00:04:29.000 Welcome to the podcast, my friend.

00:04:31.000 Fresh and fit.

00:04:33.000 Your lifestyle.

00:04:34.000 Yes, sir.

00:04:35.000 Listen, man.

00:04:36.000 This goes way back to when we went to his house with Academics.

00:04:39.000 Legend himself, bro.

00:04:41.000 Showed us around his house.

00:04:42.000 Very humble.

00:04:43.000 Awesome dude.

00:04:44.000 So, long thing coming.

00:04:45.000 I'm glad he's here.

00:04:46.000 And shout out to Jake for making this happen as well.

00:04:48.000 Jake Infamous here on the couch, too.

00:04:50.000 So, AB, what's new with you, bro?

00:04:54.000 Everything.

00:04:54.000 Even the shoes, man.

00:04:55.000 We here in Miami, we got the AB Fest right at Jake's spot.

00:04:59.000 Electric Lady this weekend.

00:05:00.000 We want to give back to the couple kids.

00:05:02.000 Bring out a couple of my friends.

00:05:04.000 You know, it's like the end of the year, fresh of the year, you know, the end of the year parties.

00:05:09.000 And now we want to raise some awareness and touch the people.

00:05:12.000 We're going to be there too.

00:05:13.000 Yeah.

00:05:14.000 A lot of people don't know this about you.

00:05:16.000 You do a lot of charity work here in Miami for the kids and give back.

00:05:19.000 Can you tell us a little bit about that?

00:05:21.000 I mean, every day I'm out, it's an opportunity to give back, you know, not only if it's physical, but it's just taking a picture.

00:05:29.000 You know, each time you meet people that look up to you, you know, I take it as an opportunity to give them, you know, what they're looking for, if any inspiration and encouragement.

00:05:38.000 And that's what life's about, you know, being that example for people that find you to be that example based on the position you're in.

00:05:44.000 And you came from the hood, bro.

00:05:45.000 You came from humble beginnings.

00:05:47.000 Liberty City.

00:05:47.000 You always give back, right?

00:05:49.000 So today, I want to give back to you as well.

00:05:51.000 So my boy and myself have a gift for you.

00:05:55.000 And actually, it's one of one piece, my boy.

00:05:58.000 His brand is called No, and it's one of one.

00:06:01.000 And if you open it, there's a diamond inside as well.

00:06:29.000 And the shirt is one of one.

00:06:34.000 Nox t-shirt, one of one.

00:06:36.000 Yes, sir.

00:06:36.000 Oh, okay.

00:06:37.000 Thank you, man.

00:06:38.000 Fresh and fit.

00:06:38.000 Shout out to No.

00:06:39.000 Hey, that's what's up, man.

00:06:40.000 My boy, Boo.

00:06:43.000 You dig!

00:06:44.000 Yes, sir.

00:06:44.000 Thank you, brother.

00:06:45.000 First number comes empty handed, man.

00:06:46.000 Nah, never, bro.

00:06:47.000 Yo, I need some merch, AB. Thank you, thank you, man.

00:06:50.000 I need some merch, AB. I got you, man.

00:06:52.000 I'm going to take care of that for you.

00:06:53.000 Thank you, bro.

00:06:54.000 It's love.

00:06:55.000 100%.

00:06:55.000 Alright.

00:06:56.000 No, no, but so you actually did something crazy, bro, that I didn't think it was actually you were going to do.

00:07:01.000 You graduated from Central Michigan.

00:07:03.000 And tell us about why you did that, actually, because that was pretty shocking.

00:07:06.000 Well, I got kids and you always want to bring things to complete.

00:07:09.000 You know, anything you start, you want to finish.

00:07:11.000 I was able to leave college early as a junior, so I never was able to finish with playing ball.

00:07:16.000 So I made a time when I wasn't playing, you know, to finish up.

00:07:20.000 And I encourage anyone, you know, to get their college degree if they start or whatever you start, finish.

00:07:25.000 So we know your beginnings from academics, podcasts, and, you know, just us talking.

00:07:29.000 But I guess I know where you started from, how hard it was coming up.

00:07:32.000 I mean, being the way you're at right now.

00:07:34.000 Well, I'm from Liberty City.

00:07:35.000 I grew up right on 58 Terrors in 17.

00:07:38.000 You know, it was a big John Doe gang, if you guys are familiar with Miami.

00:07:42.000 You know, a lot of drug violence.

00:07:43.000 But that didn't really deteriorate me and make excuses to want to be a great football player.

00:07:49.000 So I graduated elementary out of Linda Elementary right there on 54th and 17th.

00:07:55.000 I played for Gwen Cherry Park nine years.

00:07:58.000 And, you know, I didn't let those circumstances deter me for what my vision was for myself.

00:08:05.000 So...

00:08:07.000 Yeah, I'm from Liberty City, you know, familiar with the John Doe game.

00:08:11.000 But Trav, Bubba, some of the guys from my neighborhood, that's probably in a bad situation.

00:08:17.000 But for me, as always, it was about, you know, dream chasing, having a vision, and knowing what I wanted out of life.

00:08:23.000 And thank God I was able to do it.

00:08:26.000 You know, being able to become the player I wanted to be.

00:08:29.000 And now I get to see my kids now.

00:08:31.000 My son played basketball at university school.

00:08:33.000 I saw that actually in the video.

00:08:35.000 He's like 16, like 6'3", so I'm just excited about the future, A.B., the legacy, and what's to come behind.

00:08:41.000 You know, my dad was a football player.

00:08:43.000 Touchdown Eddie Brown, if you guys wasn't familiar.

00:08:46.000 He's the greatest wide receiver in the arena league ever over Kurt Warner.

00:08:50.000 So, you know, my DNA is just baller.

00:08:53.000 You know?

00:08:54.000 And an artist too, by the way.

00:08:56.000 No, I'm working on it. 1.00

00:08:57.000 Put that shit on? 1.00

00:08:58.000 Put that shit on, no days off. 1.00

00:09:01.000 So let me ask you this, AB. Real quick, so obviously speaking, you came from humble beginnings. 1.00

00:09:06.000 How many people actually get out of the hood and make it to where you're at?

00:09:10.000 What keeps you going just knowing that you've made it?

00:09:13.000 I feel like it's hard because sometimes you get into this position and you don't know how to handle it.

00:09:16.000 How did you overcome those things where you're making money, you're successful, there's a lot of things that happen to you like drugs or whatever to push you back down.

00:09:24.000 How did you overcome that?

00:09:25.000 Well, you got to stay driven, you know, having a goal, setting a goal, you know, writing it down, seeing the goal and doing the things that's going to prepare you towards the vision.

00:09:34.000 You know, I didn't have a lot of great support growing up, so I know if you don't have a lot of support, you got to make your own self, your own support.

00:09:42.000 Being that you got to be driven, you can't let circumstances you win affect where you're trying to go.

00:09:47.000 No matter where you're at right now, you know, you always could Get in a better position by your execution.

00:09:54.000 You know, I would advise people to have a plan, a realistic plan.

00:09:58.000 Stick to it, you know, work towards it.

00:10:00.000 And don't let your circumstances deteriorate your vision for where you see yourself.

00:10:05.000 You know, lifestyle within yourself.

00:10:06.000 So if you believe and you got a goal and you're driven and you want to make it happen to change your situation and better your life, commit to doing it.

00:10:16.000 And that's what I did.

00:10:17.000 You know, I just...

00:10:18.000 I've seen Liberty City and a lot of things and how I go in those areas.

00:10:23.000 Me and my brothers just wanted to put ourselves in a different position.

00:10:26.000 We come from a football culture.

00:10:28.000 My granddad, Walt Brown, played at Northwestern.

00:10:32.000 For us, my dad grew up in the 40s.

00:10:35.000 For me, it was just about going further.

00:10:38.000 Going further than where my dad went and leaving a legacy for my kids.

00:10:43.000 You've got to have those beliefs within yourself.

00:10:46.000 Did your dad have a big impact in your career and you think he's proud of you at this point?

00:10:52.000 I feel like my dad is proud of me, you know, to be able to see me, you know, live my dreams and kind of live his dream as well.

00:10:58.000 So I think he's definitely excited.

00:11:01.000 And shout out to my dad, Touchdown Eddie Brown.

00:11:05.000 Shout out to him.

00:11:06.000 You have a number of records in the NFL. Broke a bunch of records.

00:11:12.000 To this day, you still have some records that haven't been broken.

00:11:16.000 And you've played with some greats, right?

00:11:18.000 Tom Brady being one of them.

00:11:20.000 What's your relationship like with him now, if there is any?

00:11:23.000 And what was it like playing alongside him?

00:11:25.000 Well, you know, Tom is a great player, you know, one of the greatest quarterbacks all the time in the NFL. And the NFL, you know, the NFL is a business, like this podcast, like any job, you know, you have a stint with a person, work with a person.

00:11:40.000 But that doesn't always entail having a long-term relationship.

00:11:45.000 And that's life, you know.

00:11:47.000 There's no bad blood or no energy towards no way.

00:11:49.000 He was a great football player.

00:11:51.000 Helped me in my career.

00:11:53.000 Got me back to win the Super Bowl.

00:11:55.000 And shout-out to Tom Brady.

00:11:58.000 What was it like catching a touchdown in the Super Bowl?

00:12:02.000 Like, what was that like?

00:12:03.000 Because very few people get to experience that.

00:12:05.000 I mean, that's what you dream about as a kid, you know, those moments, you know what I'm saying?

00:12:10.000 The biggest game, you know, that's what you dream about, you know, as a kid, a player.

00:12:15.000 And that was one of the most exciting moments in my career that was pretty good.

00:12:22.000 I mean, I can't even begin.

00:12:23.000 I mean, I can only ask and hope that you can somehow describe it.

00:12:27.000 What's it like holding a trophy?

00:12:28.000 Like, culmination of, like, 20 years of hard work, practicing from high school all the way to, you know, Division I, then you're in the NFL, and then holding that trophy, getting the ring, you know, standing alongside your teammates.

00:12:41.000 I mean, try to describe it the best you can.

00:12:44.000 I mean, it's just like that moment you always waited for or dreamed about, and you're in that position.

00:12:50.000 Confetti fall, you're a winner, you're there with your family, and it's just you're soaking in agony of just, you know, all the pain and sweat, everything you persevered through.

00:13:01.000 You know, I done been on both sides of the offense of losing the Super Bowl with Pittsburgh Steelers in 2010 and being able to win in 2020, so I know what it's like to feel like from both sides, but...

00:13:14.000 I can tell you, man, winning is everything.

00:13:16.000 It's the only thing.

00:13:17.000 No matter what you do in life, you know, try to win.

00:13:21.000 What's more memorable?

00:13:22.000 The loss or the win?

00:13:25.000 I feel like everything's memorable.

00:13:27.000 You know, life's about moments.

00:13:28.000 You know, you can't define which one is better than the other.

00:13:32.000 You know, I think you learn more from losses than wins.

00:13:35.000 I think you critique yourself harder after a loss.

00:13:38.000 So, for me, I was just fortunate to be in both situations and take the most from both.

00:13:44.000 And either way I went, you know, it's always a blessing, good or bad.

00:13:47.000 We had a girl on recently, right?

00:13:50.000 With the After Hours show.

00:13:51.000 And she said in a nutshell that she had a more important job, a harder job than her ex-husband who was an athlete.

00:13:59.000 And the topic was basically, who works harder?

00:14:02.000 The athlete going into the NFL? Or, you know, into the league?

00:14:06.000 Or the mom with the kids? 0.64

00:14:08.000 What do you think, bro?

00:14:09.000 Because this is an actual athlete here.

00:14:11.000 Tell us what it is.

00:14:12.000 Super Bowl champion.

00:14:13.000 Yeah.

00:14:14.000 I feel like everyone does a job that requires a lot from each other.

00:14:19.000 We all built for it.

00:14:20.000 I don't think no job is smaller or better than another.

00:14:24.000 Each job requires a lot of attention and a lot of awareness for whatever you do. 1.00

00:14:29.000 If you're the garbage man, shit. 1.00

00:14:31.000 You know what I'm saying? 1.00

00:14:32.000 It's a lot.

00:14:33.000 If you're a mom with your kids, it's a lot.

00:14:35.000 The world requires a lot.

00:14:37.000 And no job is better than another.

00:14:38.000 If you got a job, you know what I mean?

00:14:41.000 Just work together.

00:14:42.000 I feel like human beings are emotional people, so they always try to, and most part, they unsatisfied.

00:14:48.000 So it's like, they never satisfied.

00:14:50.000 So it's like, anytime a woman making a comparable over a man, you know what I'm saying? 1.00

00:14:55.000 Big facts.

00:14:56.000 Yeah, he's being humble and nice about it.

00:14:58.000 I was not as nice as you. 1.00

00:14:59.000 I told her, I was like, you're out your goddamn fucking mind if you think that being a mom is as hard as being a fucking NFL player, man. 1.00

00:15:07.000 Get the hell out of here. 1.00

00:15:08.000 Moms don't get no critique. 1.00

00:15:09.000 If you're a bad mom, no one's going to put you on his face.

00:15:12.000 It's true.

00:15:13.000 No one's going to embarrass you.

00:15:14.000 There's lots of them.

00:15:15.000 We appreciate moms, by the way.

00:15:16.000 But that was crazy, though.

00:15:17.000 Yeah, that was wild.

00:15:19.000 A.B., real quick as well, man.

00:15:21.000 So, listen, I've been around Miami for a little bit.

00:15:24.000 I see you all the time, living life, always happy, showing love.

00:15:28.000 But there's one thing I need help with myself that I think people can learn from.

00:15:32.000 How do you deal with girls in Miami? 1.00

00:15:34.000 It's crazy, bro.

00:15:35.000 How do you navigate between the hoes, the regular girls, the good girls? 1.00

00:15:39.000 How do you get to the good girl at any day?

00:15:41.000 What's the path you gotta take and how do you filter between bad girls and good girls for your career? 0.98

00:15:46.000 I feel like this day and age, you know, it's hard to find a companion for women, especially in Miami.

00:15:53.000 You know, most girls in Miami are here for the hustle. 1.00

00:15:56.000 You know, they're here to be more successful.

00:16:00.000 You know, I meet somebody to be that guy, so for me, you know, pimpin' ain't easy.

00:16:05.000 I won't encourage you to pimp it, but, you know, whatever, you know, however you can manage, you know?

00:16:11.000 If you got high testosterone like me, you know, you probably can manage a lot.

00:16:15.000 But if you don't got this type of testosterone or pimpin' in your blood, then I won't advise you to, you know, come to Miami, because it costs, you know? 0.96

00:16:25.000 It's like my balls cost, like, every time I nut, it's a car. 0.98

00:16:30.000 It should cost more than gas. 0.99

00:16:36.000 That's funny.

00:16:38.000 I had to ask.

00:16:40.000 We talked about Tom Brady earlier.

00:16:42.000 Who was your favorite teammate and what was your favorite organization to play under?

00:16:49.000 That's a good question.

00:16:50.000 The favorite organization, I would say for sure, Pittsburgh Steelers.

00:16:55.000 I feel like I got there as a 22-year-old kid and was able to transition from playing until I was about 39 years with them.

00:17:03.000 And my favorite teammate is myself.

00:17:05.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:17:06.000 I'm like three niggas.

00:17:08.000 Me, myself, and I. You know what I'm saying?

00:17:11.000 Because teammates are getting confused, you know what I'm saying? 0.99

00:17:15.000 They tell you to be humble and shit, but it's like... 0.99

00:17:18.000 Nobody... 1.00

00:17:19.000 You're going to be the only one to tell yourself you're great.

00:17:21.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:17:22.000 So at the end of the day, if you're going to be the only one...

00:17:24.000 If I'm the only person that tells myself I'm great, no one else is going to tell me.

00:17:29.000 So why should I listen to someone and tell you to be humble?

00:17:32.000 So I will advise you as a player for me, you know, I'm my best teammate because you got to...

00:17:38.000 You gotta be a teammate to yourself.

00:17:40.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:17:41.000 Navigating yourself.

00:17:42.000 You know, teammates switch teams and go trade teams left and right.

00:17:47.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:17:47.000 You gotta have a teammate and he could be your competitor next year.

00:17:50.000 Damn. 0.99

00:17:51.000 It's always a business and it's all about taking care of your business. 0.99

00:17:57.000 I gotta ask, because I know the people watching are probably gonna have this question.

00:18:01.000 What ended up happening with the Raiders?

00:18:04.000 Yeah.

00:18:05.000 I just felt like, you know, for me at that point, I had left the Steelers and I was like, you know, I really wanted to get my value for football, you know?

00:18:13.000 Mm-hmm.

00:18:14.000 I was never a free agent player.

00:18:15.000 You know, every year I get extension.

00:18:17.000 2012 extension, 2016.

00:18:19.000 Usually when you're a good player for a team, they don't ever let you hit the free agent to get the big goals.

00:18:23.000 Of course not.

00:18:24.000 Yeah.

00:18:25.000 So, you know, it was like 2018, and I'm going to cover a Madden helmet off.

00:18:31.000 You know, football is an individual sport, but it's a team.

00:18:35.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:18:36.000 It's a team sport, but it's an individual.

00:18:37.000 You know, it's individuals collectively.

00:18:40.000 Doing their jobs that make it all suit together.

00:18:43.000 So for me, you know, 2018 at the end of the season with the Steelers, I wanted to, you know, test the market.

00:18:49.000 I felt like we wasn't going to win the Super Bowl from this point.

00:18:52.000 And I wanted to put myself in a better position as a player to be able to accomplish that in my career.

00:18:58.000 And it's not easy to get on a Madden cover, by the way.

00:19:00.000 Very difficult to get on a Madden cover, on a 2K cover.

00:19:04.000 So yeah, you just wanted, I guess, to take your talents elsewhere.

00:19:07.000 In 2018, had they already transitioned to Vegas yet at this point, or were they still in Oakland?

00:19:12.000 No, I got there like 2019 after the season.

00:19:14.000 I think they were still in Oakland.

00:19:15.000 They were still in Oakland, right?

00:19:16.000 Yeah.

00:19:16.000 Okay.

00:19:18.000 Go ahead, Fresh.

00:19:19.000 Yo, AB, so listen. 0.99

00:19:21.000 I love the person you are because to me it's more like you walk to the one beat of your drum, you don't give a fuck, you do what you want to do, right? 0.98

00:19:29.000 And it's kind of like you don't conform to nothing. 0.89

00:19:31.000 You believe in yourself, that's motivating.

00:19:33.000 You went from football to music.

00:19:37.000 Tell us how that happened, bro, and why you did that.

00:19:40.000 Yeah, well, I was always working on music, and shout out to Roy LaManna.

00:19:43.000 I got a distribution deal with Vidya.

00:19:46.000 Vidya is now called Guma.

00:19:47.000 It was brought out by Larry Jackson.

00:19:50.000 But, you know, I always had music, working on it all the time.

00:19:53.000 In 2019, I dropped my first single when I was suspended out of the league.

00:19:58.000 A whole lot of money, I think it came out 2020.

00:20:01.000 And then when I walked out the field in like 20, whatever that was, 20 ever...

00:20:06.000 2022.

00:20:07.000 January 22nd, 2022.

00:20:09.000 I'll ask you about that one after.

00:20:11.000 Yeah, I'll ask you about that after.

00:20:12.000 So when I walked out the field, my distribution guy, Roy Lamont, said, he thought, yo, AB, I'm putting up, putting out the pallets.

00:20:19.000 I'm like, nigga, I'm trying to get a ride back to Manhattan.

00:20:22.000 He like...

00:20:23.000 He put out the song, and yeah, man, I always worked on music, been creative, and I'm excited about the process.

00:20:31.000 I don't know if you heard my first album, Paradigm.

00:20:34.000 I'm uploading it back on Spotify.

00:20:36.000 Okay.

00:20:36.000 I got some new tracks coming in.

00:20:39.000 If you guys want to hear them, man, come out to the AB Fest this weekend.

00:20:42.000 I'm coming.

00:20:42.000 I'm there.

00:20:43.000 Electric Lady.

00:20:45.000 We're going to do some positive things early in the day, community service with the kids before we get into the night festivities, so it's game time.

00:20:53.000 When you were playing in the league, were you writing music back then?

00:20:58.000 Yes.

00:20:58.000 So it's always been something that you've been passionate about that you wanted to do.

00:21:02.000 Does the NFL have, I mean in the contracts, do they have clauses in there that keep you from doing music professionally?

00:21:09.000 Just anything that don't get you hurt.

00:21:12.000 So you could have made music, but it would have been probably difficult to make music and play.

00:21:17.000 No, I'm saying, like, they probably wouldn't have liked it if you do two things at once.

00:21:21.000 It's like when Denzel played, like, 50 roles, and no one ever tell him, like, yeah, you got to stick to this role.

00:21:27.000 Yeah.

00:21:28.000 So anytime you're playing in a marginalized, monopoly-type business, the NFL, obviously, there's a lot of criticism.

00:21:36.000 Of course.

00:21:37.000 You got to do the right things and make the thing that's important, important.

00:21:40.000 Yeah.

00:21:41.000 When I play ball, you know, it's all ball.

00:21:43.000 Things I do on the off the field, which is the music and other businesses, we just keep them on the low and make what's important, important.

00:21:50.000 Yeah, because ESPN will run with it. 0.97

00:21:52.000 They'll talk shit, and they'll say that he's causing a distraction in the locker room, because they're looking for a story. 0.97

00:21:56.000 Yeah, exactly. 0.99

00:21:58.000 My top two favorite AB songs.

00:22:00.000 What's your top two? 1.00

00:22:01.000 Put That Shit On, Champions of Popular Foreign. 1.00

00:22:04.000 Listen, AB, I'm good at networking, right? 0.99

00:22:06.000 Many celebrities, you see me outside doing stuff, but you're a master because you came from football, To music, you met all these rappers, but out of all the rappers that you've met, who is the one that you haven't worked with yet, that you want to work with now, you would say.

00:22:20.000 Like a Drake, maybe, I don't know, Lil Wayne, wink wink.

00:22:24.000 I got Lil Wayne on the track as well.

00:22:26.000 That's why it was my biggest work done, Lil Wayne.

00:22:29.000 Shout out to Louisiana for the Lil Wayne feature.

00:22:31.000 What was it like working with Wayne, man?

00:22:33.000 Because obviously he's a legend.

00:22:35.000 I mean, we're a bit older, so we remember when he was going crazy.

00:22:39.000 Come on, man.

00:22:40.000 That was hard.

00:22:41.000 Come on, man.

00:22:42.000 Lollipop.

00:22:42.000 Of all the...

00:22:47.000 You know, because I know you're 35, I'm 33, so obviously we were adults when Wayne was going crazy from, I want to say, from 2005 to like 20.

00:22:59.000 I mean, even now he's still fucking, I think, one of the best rappers of all time.

00:23:03.000 But, you know, the Drought 3, all that, you know, the Carter. 0.84

00:23:07.000 What was it like working with him?

00:23:09.000 Lil Wayne the legend, you know, anytime you work with a musician of that stature who been around culture decades of pioneer and just giving us inspiration after inspiration, you know, that was a movie theater.

00:23:24.000 Did he go off the top? 0.99

00:23:26.000 Like you just know he didn't write shit, right? 1.00

00:23:27.000 You hear him go on a verse, you're like, nah, say that again. 1.00

00:23:32.000 So what, he hears the beat one time and just goes in there and starts rapping?

00:23:35.000 Yeah, it's like a movie theater.

00:23:36.000 Wow.

00:23:37.000 Not many rappers.

00:23:38.000 Him, Hove, those are two rappers on top of my head that I know that don't write anything.

00:23:43.000 Who else did you work with in music?

00:23:45.000 I got a song, Get In My Bad with Young Thug.

00:23:48.000 That was hard too.

00:23:49.000 Okay.

00:23:49.000 Keisha Cole.

00:23:51.000 I got some Jacquees.

00:23:53.000 I got one with Trippi.

00:23:55.000 I got a couple in the archives.

00:23:57.000 Shout out Trippi.

00:23:58.000 What was it like working with Fabio?

00:24:00.000 Oh, Fabio, Hot Energy.

00:24:02.000 Yeah.

00:24:03.000 That's my brother. 1.00

00:24:04.000 I think we got the same pussy. 1.00

00:24:09.000 Shit. 1.00

00:24:10.000 Okay. 1.00

00:24:11.000 Okay. 1.00

00:24:12.000 Damn! 0.99

00:24:13.000 Do you go to New York to record with him or does he come down to Miami or how do y'all do it? 1.00

00:24:18.000 I've been both.

00:24:19.000 I'm always in New York.

00:24:21.000 I think we did Miami Rolling Loud together this year.

00:24:24.000 I saw.

00:24:25.000 How'd you meet Fabio in the first place?

00:24:28.000 But me and this manager are really close, so I'm blessed.

00:24:31.000 So they've been like home team.

00:24:33.000 You know, I'm familiar with New York.

00:24:34.000 I got a spot in New York.

00:24:35.000 So I remember my brother's from like 2019 with the big drip.

00:24:39.000 So I told you, man, that's my brother. 0.99

00:24:40.000 We from the same pussy. 1.00

00:24:43.000 Keisha Cole, right? 1.00

00:24:44.000 You did a song with her.

00:24:45.000 Yeah.

00:24:46.000 Let me ask you this, brother.

00:24:48.000 What was it like working with Keisha Cole?

00:24:50.000 And is there anything more to that?

00:24:52.000 Or is it finished now?

00:24:53.000 Nah, shout out to Keisha Cole, man. 1.00

00:24:55.000 She's extremely talented.

00:24:57.000 She only drink the most expensive liquor. 0.90

00:25:01.000 She want Louis XIII every night.

00:25:05.000 You gotta have at least $4,000 a night for the Louis XIII. Damn! 0.99

00:25:10.000 She only can sing off that, so... 1.00

00:25:12.000 She expensive.

00:25:13.000 Nah, she's expensive. 1.00

00:25:14.000 She's a queen. 0.97

00:25:16.000 Keisha Cole hit my phone, you know. 0.98

00:25:18.000 I still, you know...

00:25:21.000 I see what you did there.

00:25:23.000 So, what is it like meeting these artists?

00:25:26.000 How do you connect with them?

00:25:27.000 Is it from managers or, for example, meet them in person?

00:25:29.000 How do you get people to come, maybe to you or you go to them to make music?

00:25:33.000 It's usually a general connection, you know.

00:25:36.000 I'm a 12-year football player, man, that's been around.

00:25:40.000 You know, with people seeing on TV, done things.

00:25:42.000 So it's usually a mutual admiration for, you know, the people I work with.

00:25:46.000 You know, just the respect from that crowd, man.

00:25:49.000 I've been grateful, man.

00:25:50.000 Most of a lot of my brothers in entertainment, and they embrace me and understand where I'm from.

00:25:56.000 And shout out to all my brothers who work with me, who are in the industry.

00:26:00.000 Sisters and everyone, you know.

00:26:02.000 Been in boom, man.

00:26:03.000 There's one person, I think, kind of like, emulates your persona in the industry.

00:26:09.000 You probably know how I'm going to say it.

00:26:11.000 Into fashion, right?

00:26:13.000 Does what he wants. 0.99

00:26:14.000 Doesn't give a fuck. 0.99

00:26:15.000 Kanye West. 0.99

00:26:16.000 What was it like, I guess, talking to him, meeting him?

00:26:20.000 I mean, yeah, he's a legend, man.

00:26:21.000 Anytime you meet a guy with that creativity and that passion for everything he do, you know, that's what it's about, man.

00:26:29.000 Shout out to Ye, this is the Donna Chain.

00:26:31.000 Sheesh.

00:26:31.000 President.

00:26:33.000 We need that song, bro.

00:26:35.000 It's coming.

00:26:36.000 It's coming.

00:26:36.000 What's it dropping?

00:26:39.000 It's on the way.

00:26:40.000 You dig?

00:26:41.000 I got a question for you.

00:26:43.000 Yes.

00:26:44.000 What are some of the challenges you deal with in the music industry that the NFL helped you prepare?

00:26:50.000 The NFL helped me prepare for the music industry.

00:26:52.000 Yeah, because it's a whole other world, right?

00:26:53.000 You go from being one of the best receivers of all time to now you're making music.

00:26:59.000 Obviously you have to have a certain mindset to be a professional athlete at that level, but then you're transitioning into the music industry.

00:27:05.000 What are some of the things that playing in the NFL helped you with transitioning over to music?

00:27:10.000 I mean, you got to have that work ethic.

00:27:11.000 You know, sometimes, you know, guys be up in the studio at 6 a.m.

00:27:15.000 Most of the guys that really create in the late night hour, you know, you got to be able to just have that drive, you know, have that patient, you know, have that plan.

00:27:24.000 Just like if you're making a play or running a route, you know what I'm saying, football.

00:27:28.000 The same details you'll take with that is...

00:27:31.000 Same details you take with recording.

00:27:33.000 You know what I mean?

00:27:34.000 Being able to take the time with the beat, you know, get in the zone of what you want to write.

00:27:38.000 And just having that consistency with always taking a rep.

00:27:42.000 You're only as good as your last rep.

00:27:44.000 So, you know, anything you want to be good at, take work ethic, you know, take a good team, and then take dedication and having a vision.

00:27:51.000 So, I use the football analogy of being a great player to be able to work towards anything you want to do.

00:27:58.000 Do you have the Kanye mindset with it where you're listening to it a thousand times and if it doesn't sound perfect, you're like, nah, we gotta do it again.

00:28:06.000 What's your mindset when you're recording?

00:28:08.000 Are you recording it over a million times?

00:28:10.000 Will you just rewrite an entire verse?

00:28:12.000 Will you scrap it if you don't like it?

00:28:14.000 What's your approach?

00:28:15.000 Well, I just like to, you know, as long as I feel good by it, you know, you feel good by it.

00:28:21.000 Got a good engineer at the team I work with to be able to know that sound you need and, you know what I'm saying, we always trying to make the next one.

00:28:28.000 Okay.

00:28:29.000 It's not about this one.

00:28:30.000 Do you have, like, your team listen to it and then if they give you the green, you're like, okay, this is good?

00:28:33.000 Or do you listen to it yourself and you're like, I don't like it and no one else can hear it?

00:28:36.000 Nah, I let everyone hear everything I drop.

00:28:38.000 You know, I always love the opinion, even if it's good or bad.

00:28:42.000 And I'm always listening to what I feel in regards to creativity and what zones I'm trying to get in and give off.

00:28:48.000 Okay.

00:28:49.000 So we met a while back, AB. Went to your crib.

00:28:52.000 You're a gracious host.

00:28:54.000 Awesome guy, by the way.

00:28:55.000 And we heard your music before it even came out, right?

00:28:59.000 It was fire.

00:29:00.000 But you had another room for meditation.

00:29:02.000 Yes.

00:29:03.000 I was like, what is this room?

00:29:05.000 You had stage in it, you know, carpet.

00:29:08.000 It was a very, like, I want to say, holistic room.

00:29:13.000 But I was wondering, why do you have this?

00:29:15.000 But then when you spoke to academics, you told him, listen...

00:29:18.000 I've been through a lot, you know, making this money.

00:29:21.000 It changed a lot of things for me, and no one told me how to deal with this.

00:29:25.000 But you say, you know what, I'm going to take a step back and learn how to manage it.

00:29:29.000 What's it been like having the money and then having to deal with all the issues that come up having money?

00:29:34.000 Well, man, when you have money, it'll make you a target.

00:29:36.000 You know, everyone's trying to get something out of you or find a way to put you in a deal or ruin this or take away.

00:29:42.000 So you just got to know out of it.

00:29:44.000 Take yourself and be able to control your breathing, you know.

00:29:47.000 Breathing is important.

00:29:48.000 Stretching to be able to navigate your attitude when people constantly writing about you negative, people constantly saying things that maybe...

00:30:07.000 That's deep.

00:30:09.000 And for example, you do what you want to do as well.

00:30:11.000 So I know you did that by yourself, but let's say someone has haters in their life.

00:30:15.000 How should they deal with haters, you would say?

00:30:18.000 I feel like haters is just like, you know, haters, we all need haters because, you know, haters bring out the best in us.

00:30:25.000 If you ain't had nobody to hate on you or tell you what you can't do, you probably wouldn't push to the next level.

00:30:31.000 So I love my haters.

00:30:32.000 I love the people that motivate me because, you know, they usually bring the best out of me.

00:30:36.000 I'm usually my best when a lot on the line.

00:30:40.000 They told me, Fresh, you can't make a rap song.

00:30:43.000 All my haters, right?

00:30:45.000 Then I went to LA, talked to my boy Mr.

00:30:48.000 Organic, my boy 80 from No Jumper, well he's a community now, I made a song.

00:30:53.000 Dropped it, high volume man.

00:30:55.000 So AB, question is bro, when are we going to make a song?

00:30:59.000 We can go to House of Hit tonight.

00:31:00.000 There you go!

00:31:02.000 You mentioned that haters help you with pushing. 0.99

00:31:06.000 When you were in the league, did you ever watch ESPN and watch Skip Bayless or any of these other guys talk shit? 0.98

00:31:11.000 Or did you say, nah, I'm good on you and listen to them? 0.98

00:31:14.000 I mean, that's his job. 1.00

00:31:15.000 His job is to talk shit. 0.99

00:31:18.000 So did you ever watch it or did you stay away from watching it? 1.00

00:31:21.000 No, you got to stay away from the talk shit channels, the blogs. 0.98

00:31:24.000 Yeah, of course. 0.99

00:31:25.000 You got to have blinders on when you're in the game.

00:31:27.000 You got to just see your success and pay your energy off to things that don't matter.

00:31:32.000 It'll take a lot out of you. 0.96

00:31:34.000 Yeah, because I can imagine, you know, you're probably going to get, because you're going to listen to people talking shit no matter what, whether you watch ESPN or not, you know, you're going to walk by and see a newspaper, someone's going to say something, a reporter's going to come in and ask you a question to try to jerk you and get a reaction. 0.78

00:31:49.000 What was it like just dealing with that all the time, like constantly being scrutinized, constantly being criticized, constantly being, oh, well, he's doing this and he's doing that, oh, look, he walked off the field, oh, look, now he's trying to be a musician. 0.84

00:32:00.000 What is that like, man?

00:32:01.000 Because it's one thing to watch someone go through it, but it's another thing to hear their perspective on what it's like to deal with that every single day.

00:32:08.000 I mean, criticism comes with achievement.

00:32:11.000 So anytime you're achieving a lot of stuff in life, it's going to come with people hating and talking down or trying to deteriorate others from your purpose.

00:32:20.000 So you got to have a high belief in yourself in regards of knowing who you are and what you stand for.

00:32:25.000 Because people are going to always talk, you know, Jesus walked the world and was perfect.

00:32:29.000 And you see what they did to him.

00:32:31.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:32:33.000 I need the haters.

00:32:34.000 I like when people talk.

00:32:35.000 I like when people be confusing because they just bring out the best.

00:32:40.000 AB, you like to party.

00:32:42.000 You like to work hard.

00:32:44.000 Keep it a bean.

00:32:45.000 You been to one of Diddy's parties?

00:32:47.000 Nah, I don't do no Diddy parties.

00:32:49.000 I don't do no Diddy parties.

00:32:52.000 Never.

00:32:53.000 What do you think about Diddy though and what he's going through right now?

00:32:56.000 I don't know what to think, you know, I wouldn't...

00:32:58.000 I wouldn't wish I don't know one, but, you know, to each his own, you know?

00:33:05.000 Mm-hmm.

00:33:06.000 Yeah, I seen you at them Diddy parties, man.

00:33:09.000 Man, let me say you were there.

00:33:11.000 Let me say you were there.

00:33:12.000 Nah, I ain't at them Diddy parties.

00:33:15.000 No, sir.

00:33:16.000 I got a question for you, AB. So, we kind of alluded to it earlier, but I got to ask because I know people are going to want this.

00:33:21.000 You famously walked out the field on January 22nd, 2022, almost two years ago, in Tampa Bay, Week 17.

00:33:29.000 What prompted that?

00:33:31.000 And would you do it again if given the chance?

00:33:34.000 Yeah.

00:33:35.000 Yeah, I did the right thing.

00:33:37.000 You know, I did what was best for me.

00:33:39.000 You know, and it's like, in life, it's always, you know, important where you do what's best for yourself.

00:33:44.000 You know, some people are in situations where they can't do what's best for themselves.

00:33:48.000 Some people are in situations where they wish they could do something for themselves.

00:33:51.000 And for me, at that point, when you're playing in the NFL, you're on a team, and you're working hard to be in such position, you realize that The team's not working with you to be in that position.

00:34:01.000 It's like, yo, you either suck it up in that position and be stuck there or you do what's best for yourself.

00:34:08.000 And me, I feel like that was one of the moments where I do what's best for myself.

00:34:12.000 And as a man, as a black man, you know, I always feel good when you do what's best for yourself because most of the time in the position we're in, we're just doing what we need to do out of survival of making something.

00:34:24.000 So, yeah, I do it again.

00:34:26.000 You know, I always do what's right for myself.

00:34:29.000 You had mentioned earlier that you think players in the NFL are marginalized and obviously it's a business and it's for profit and they don't necessarily...

00:34:35.000 Their bottom line is to make money.

00:34:38.000 Was that you kind of like a way to take a stand and take the power back?

00:34:42.000 Nah, I just did what's best for me.

00:34:44.000 You know, I wouldn't advise no one to do what I did.

00:34:47.000 You know, I would advise people to do what's best for themselves.

00:34:50.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:34:51.000 Like, not a lot of people in my position would be able to make the money or had the career or being able to achieve what they wanted to achieve, so I wouldn't advise no one leaving their jobs unless they got it like that.

00:35:03.000 I wouldn't advise no one to quit a walk-off.

00:35:07.000 You know, this is just something I did.

00:35:09.000 Did the NFL, like, try to rain down on you with some penalties or some other type of crap, or what ended up happening from that?

00:35:17.000 I mean, they just do what they normally do. 0.98

00:35:20.000 Write articles, talk shit, penalties, fines, all that? 0.99

00:35:24.000 All that. 0.99

00:35:25.000 Etc, etc.

00:35:28.000 Fair enough.

00:35:29.000 Let's do some chats real quick.

00:35:30.000 Yeah, we can, we can.

00:35:32.000 What do we got here, Bills?

00:35:34.000 You got them ready, or you need a second?

00:35:36.000 Everything's under 50.

00:35:38.000 You want the Rumble?

00:35:40.000 We told them 50. 0.98

00:35:42.000 Anyone of my number one fans out there, you know I usually fuck my number one fan in every city or every chat. 0.97

00:35:48.000 So, if you out there... 0.97

00:35:50.000 Hey, A.B., I got a question for you.

00:35:54.000 Your favorite touchdown celebration?

00:35:57.000 The favorite one?

00:35:58.000 Yeah. 0.98

00:36:01.000 Damn, I had a lot of them, but... 0.98

00:36:03.000 Probably the favorite one, probably the Benny Wiggle. 0.98

00:36:06.000 Benny Wiggle.

00:36:11.000 And then also, Fresh had alluded to this before.

00:36:14.000 But obviously, you're responsible for a dance going viral.

00:36:17.000 What are your thoughts on that? 1.00

00:36:19.000 Put that shit on. 1.00

00:36:20.000 Yo, I saw Burner Boy do that. 1.00

00:36:22.000 A bunch of other athletes, celebrities, put that shit on, put that shit on. 1.00

00:36:27.000 What's that like, bro? 1.00

00:36:28.000 Worldwide.

00:36:29.000 No, it's always amazing when you have a vision, and people don't believe in your vision, and then you see your vision take off.

00:36:36.000 You know, it's just an amazing feeling, you know, that you get from within, knowing that you had a goal.

00:36:42.000 And, like, people may have been like, I don't know, and then they see it, and it's like, oh!

00:36:47.000 So, you know, that was a great opportunity and a great splash into music, the show, you know what I mean?

00:36:54.000 I gotta ask.

00:36:54.000 You get the respect, you know what I mean?

00:36:56.000 When you recorded that song, And you came up with that dance.

00:37:01.000 At that point, did you think, yo, this is going to go viral?

00:37:04.000 Or were you like, you know what?

00:37:05.000 We're going to do it. 1.00

00:37:06.000 I don't go fuck with anybody who thinks I like it. 1.00

00:37:07.000 That's what matters. 1.00

00:37:08.000 Or did you know, no, this is going to go viral.

00:37:10.000 We're going to be all over.

00:37:12.000 Yeah, I knew it was going to go viral, man.

00:37:13.000 It was like January in 2022 when I walked out the field.

00:37:17.000 I actually flew to LA. I met with Kanye.

00:37:20.000 So Ye usually have meetings like 8 in the morning in LA. So we was in the meeting.

00:37:25.000 He's like, AB, you been working on some music?

00:37:27.000 He's like, I play a track.

00:37:28.000 I played the Fabio song.

00:37:29.000 He's like, yeah, I like it.

00:37:30.000 You sounded good on it.

00:37:31.000 But get with my guy.

00:37:33.000 He got some beats.

00:37:34.000 I want to hear you on this beat right here.

00:37:37.000 So I got with Fat Money.

00:37:38.000 He had a beat from Chase Daniels.

00:37:41.000 And you know, Ye had me at the SoHo.

00:37:43.000 He was like, he had rented out the whole flow right in LA, right downtown. 0.99

00:37:47.000 So he was just giving me Balenciaga just like, he kept like, if you don't know, Ye trademarked the word, put that shit on. 1.00

00:37:53.000 Oh shit. 0.99

00:37:54.000 So he kept, you know, a lot of people don't know that. 1.00

00:37:57.000 So he's like, yeah, AB, whatever you need in the dressing room, you know, put that shit on. 1.00

00:38:01.000 So I'm like, damn, put that shit on. 1.00

00:38:03.000 And I was like, all right. 1.00

00:38:05.000 And then I made the song, and then when he heard it, he's like, yeah, that's what I'm talking about right there.

00:38:09.000 Wow.

00:38:10.000 And then I just got to dance, and then once I did the Rolling Loud, I met Tariq at the Soho when he was out there to see Kanye in L.A. And I was like, Tariq, like, yo, you do music?

00:38:19.000 I'm like, yo.

00:38:20.000 He's like, no, I ain't no AB you do, so he... 1.00

00:38:22.000 He's like, yo, I'm going to bring you to Rolling Loud.

00:38:24.000 And then that's when I did the dance and there was a rap from there. 0.80

00:38:28.000 Carl went crazy, by the way.

00:38:29.000 Went crazy.

00:38:30.000 What's it like?

00:38:31.000 Because I've heard stories from people that have worked with Kanye or been in the room with him.

00:38:35.000 What's it like talking with him, picking his brain, getting the mentorship, the experience from someone like that that's been in the music industry for so long?

00:38:43.000 Because a lot of people don't know.

00:38:44.000 He was a producer before.

00:38:45.000 He was writing lyrics.

00:38:46.000 He wrote a lot of stuff beforehand.

00:38:49.000 What's it like being around him?

00:38:51.000 Man, he's multi-talented, man.

00:38:52.000 Really hot energy, passionate.

00:38:55.000 The fashion, the music, the creativity, the organization, the meetings.

00:39:00.000 I mean, he's really into it, man.

00:39:02.000 Really a genius.

00:39:02.000 And shout out to Ye, man.

00:39:04.000 He's getting back good mental health space.

00:39:06.000 So hopefully he rolling out the things he's been working on creatively.

00:39:10.000 Baby, keep it a bean. 0.99

00:39:11.000 Yeah. 0.99

00:39:12.000 Who folks about it, bitches? 1.00

00:39:13.000 You are calling it. 1.00

00:39:15.000 Kanye be trying to size some of my vibes, but Kanye like whores, but I got more quality. 1.00

00:39:21.000 Okay, that makes sense. 0.96

00:39:24.000 I mean, maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right, I don't know.

00:39:27.000 I've been told that he'll have a meeting, and he'll be working on music here, then he'll be working on clothes here, then he'll be working on setting up shows, and he goes back and forth between everything.

00:39:40.000 He's doing five things at once.

00:39:42.000 Yeah, he loves that.

00:39:42.000 He loves to set up.

00:39:44.000 Multifacet about things.

00:39:46.000 Wow.

00:39:46.000 Every room he loved.

00:39:48.000 Game planning on it.

00:39:49.000 He like called it like, yo, AB, we leaders of our own gang.

00:39:52.000 So he loved to organize, you know, fellowship with people working together towards the goal if it's fashionally, music related, you know, culturally related.

00:40:01.000 He's working on a lot of farms now to get his own city and just do some philanthropy, priest things.

00:40:07.000 So, Shah De Ye, man, that's my guy. 0.66

00:40:10.000 Yeah, he is a creator.

00:40:11.000 I think Igor Artui AB as well, a big creator.

00:40:14.000 But I want to say this off while she's on camera as well.

00:40:17.000 The biggest creation you guys have made, I think, in my opinion, is kids, you know?

00:40:21.000 For sure.

00:40:21.000 As a man, you have success, you make money, you know, you've done the most, I want to say, amazing things in life.

00:40:28.000 But having a kid is different.

00:40:30.000 What's it like being a dad, you would say?

00:40:31.000 I feel like the dad is the most important thing.

00:40:33.000 You could be as a man, you know, a father figure.

00:40:36.000 And it brings a different joy in your life to, you know, see your kids, go through things, grow from things, and you helping them, you know, be their best self.

00:40:44.000 So shout out to all my kids.

00:40:47.000 Tune in there and shout out to their mom.

00:40:48.000 Shout out to everybody a part of the AB clan and family, you know?

00:40:52.000 AB, how much kids you got, man?

00:40:54.000 How much kids you got?

00:40:54.000 Don't cap.

00:40:56.000 I got six right now, but, you know, I think I'm working on one another.

00:41:00.000 One other way?

00:41:01.000 Yeah.

00:41:02.000 Congratulations, man. 1.00

00:41:02.000 Oh, shit. 1.00

00:41:03.000 Four sons, two daughters? 1.00

00:41:05.000 Five sons, one daughter.

00:41:06.000 Five sons, one daughter. 1.00

00:41:07.000 Damn. 1.00

00:41:08.000 Okay. 1.00

00:41:09.000 You got blessed, bro, because karma should have said six daughters.

00:41:11.000 You got blessed, bro.

00:41:13.000 I got a question here.

00:41:15.000 You switched your number to 17, and then you also switched it to 81.

00:41:23.000 Was there a reason for that?

00:41:24.000 Because I know typically with numbers with athletes, there's a reason behind it, there's a story behind it.

00:41:30.000 Was there a particular reason why you switched it to 17 and then 81?

00:41:33.000 Well, my dad usually wore number 17 when he played for the Albany Firebirds, so I think I played one game for the Patriots, and I wore number 17.

00:41:43.000 I felt like when I got back on the Patriots, it wasn't going to be a long run, being they didn't want me to win the Super Bowl probably in 2019 with Tom, so I wore my dad number the one game, and when I came back in 2020 after the suspension, I wear number 81.

00:42:00.000 It was like I took the stick off the 4.

00:42:02.000 You know, have you ever seen a 4 drawn?

00:42:04.000 I just took the half of the bar off the 4 because I knew it was going to be something special.

00:42:09.000 So 8 plus 1 is 9, you know.

00:42:14.000 What was it like playing for the Patriots?

00:42:17.000 I mean, obviously they have a reputation for being extremely strict and they're a very clean cut organization and they get things done by the book.

00:42:24.000 What was it like playing for the Patriots?

00:42:27.000 It was amazing, man.

00:42:28.000 Anytime you go to organizations that's a championship organization with them, with the culture, Bill Belichick and the great coach.

00:42:36.000 I was going to ask you that next.

00:42:37.000 Great quarterback, man.

00:42:39.000 That's the type of organization you want to be a part of as a winner, as a exciting player, you know?

00:42:44.000 Yeah.

00:42:45.000 The only thing that sucks is the cold weather.

00:42:47.000 I fly any weather.

00:42:49.000 I fly any weather.

00:42:50.000 It's my last, I want to say, controversial question for you.

00:42:53.000 Yes, sir.

00:42:55.000 Did you do it?

00:42:57.000 Did you actually do it?

00:42:58.000 Do what?

00:42:59.000 Tom Brady.

00:43:02.000 What?

00:43:03.000 Did I do what to Tom Brady?

00:43:06.000 Wife.

00:43:07.000 Which wife? 0.99

00:43:08.000 His wife.

00:43:09.000 He said, which one?

00:43:10.000 Did you do it?

00:43:12.000 Did you do it?

00:43:14.000 Nah, yeah.

00:43:20.000 Damn, dawg. 1.00

00:43:23.000 You feel me? 1.00

00:45:26.000 That's hard.

00:45:26.000 I gotta ask something.

00:45:28.000 You're really into fashion.

00:45:30.000 What prompted that interest and what got you into it?

00:45:36.000 I mean, fashion is art.

00:45:39.000 Everything we do, how we get our hair cut, how we look, how we dress, how I make my plays, how I play the game.

00:45:49.000 It's all high fashion.

00:45:51.000 Has it been something that you've always been interested in or something that you took a more particular interest in after you got into the music?

00:45:58.000 Or has it been something you always did that was just kind of off the field stuff?

00:46:01.000 I'm from Liberty City, man.

00:46:03.000 Every Saturday before the game, my mom would take me to get a fade.

00:46:07.000 You know, we had them Jordans in the high school.

00:46:10.000 Saturday mornings, yeah.

00:46:11.000 You know that, man.
