00:00:00.000
you went to chicago right yeah back in the day i covered a music festival called lyrical lemonade
00:00:03.760
or summer smash and i went to oblock the next day and somehow that became my like most watched video
00:00:08.140
of all time 13 million views yeah that was sick i love it it's sick yeah why do you think it was
00:00:12.720
so special why do you think it did so well well oblock is like the genesis of drill music you
00:00:16.660
mind if we played yeah sure rob go ahead and play go ahead you're saying oblock is the genesis
00:00:20.380
oblock is the genesis of drill music which is a sub-genre like a of rap which is hyper violent
00:00:25.260
and focuses on like real life violence it's actually been a pretty destructive uh cultural
00:00:28.700
force to be honest with you but you know oblock is where it started so it's kind of like you know
00:00:33.420
how people would go to mississippi to document the origin story of blues or they go to new orleans
00:00:38.180
for jazz or they go to uh nashville for country chicago and south chicago is like that for drill
00:00:43.160
music i think that in 100 years there's going to be like drill tours in the same way that there's
00:00:47.680
like a kentucky bourbon trail where people will like drink the whole way and go say this is where
00:00:52.060
uh pot pappy van winkle put his 15 year barrel up for sale in 1798 they're going to do this
00:00:58.680
in oblock and be like this is where chief keith was born in the year 1995 and there's going to
00:01:04.420
be people in 2150 like oh my god that's so crazy what is that peak rob go back on the video at the
00:01:09.980
beginning there was a peak all the way to the about first first part first two minutes oh sorry
00:01:13.940
what is that what is that peak what happens here press play
00:01:17.480
eehe the k gdk gdk gdk gdk gdk gdk gdk gdk gdk gdk gdkìœ ï¿½ expanded that shit
00:01:26.640
to you like what is drill music we started the word drill with our music like that's
00:01:31.500
let's do a drill we started that shit like how would you explain drill music to someone who doesn't
00:01:35.160
know um music that make you want to kind of get outside and go just the outside you know
00:01:43.780
make sense so so means what meaning you can go outside and cause mayhem kill somebody that's
00:01:53.200
literally what he's saying yeah it's pretty dark but i mean drill has now become like the
00:02:00.720
one of rap's mainstream sounds how how safe did you feel pretty safe honestly only because like
00:02:08.020
you know people don't understand this now like all hoods in america all like you know poor
00:02:13.360
neighborhoods that have music in them and have like micro influencers they recognize content as
00:02:18.520
a viable avenue for income you know back in the day if this was 2005 pre-youtube you could never go
00:02:23.700
to somebody's hood just as a as a warrior and and film with them but now there's kind of an informal
00:02:28.600
agreement that is that's why there's so many hood vlogs now is they recognize that being featured on
00:02:33.200
a predominant like a major youtube channel could be their take it out people are going to see them
00:02:38.080
it could be their uh you know um it could be their moment for more exposure and attention and especially
00:02:43.400
obloc is probably the most famous housing project in the u.s and i had a big youtube channel so it
00:02:47.920
just happened really fast the one of the craziest things you did is when you went to uh who's the
00:02:53.960
keys uh what was it kia's i'll break it down so the kia boys are a car a car we talked about on
00:02:59.900
the podcast go for the beautiful coastal town of bridgeport connecticut that's right they're in high
00:03:03.940
school uh for an update i heard the kia boys aren't stealing cars anymore part of that has to do with
00:03:10.720
the security update that was installed in the push to start system you can't do it anymore yeah you
00:03:14.520
can't do it anymore unless somebody hasn't gotten the software update but one of them's in jail
00:03:17.840
one of them just disappeared and the third guy is working at a factory and he bought his own car
00:03:22.480
and it's not a kia he bought an american-made car so that's the real message of this documentary
00:03:27.220
him being in the car rob when you're in the car where is it where you're in the car well i should
00:03:32.840
have put two and two together but um yeah they picked me up in a car and they're like yo let's
00:03:37.380
let's hang out and i got in the car and i'm sitting in the back seat and i thought about it and i'm like
00:03:41.760
wait a second this is a kia holy shit i'm in the back of a stolen car with three juveniles window with a
00:03:47.340
special tool and clears the broken glass a little bit before back up a little bit
00:03:50.800
so this is a crazy scene so back up like maybe uh yeah this shows what they were doing so they
00:03:59.860
picked me up at the mcdonald's in bridgeport i'm riding with them in the back of this car
00:04:03.700
sometimes i don't realize what's happening until it's too late for example and i don't want to jump
00:04:07.400
ahead too much but when i hopped the border i didn't realize that i had to hop it with the coyotes
00:04:10.660
until i was at the rio grande i'm sitting in the back of this uh stolen i think it was a mazda
00:04:14.780
actually not a kia and i'm thinking holy shit they stole this car and then i look around i look
00:04:19.560
in the uh the rearview mirror and there's a cop trailing us and so i say to these kia boys i say
00:04:24.360
hey guys pull over i gotta hop out because i'm thinking like i'm 25 these kids are 16 i don't
00:04:29.640
know what they're gonna charge me with and so and the kid's sitting in shotgun named swervo he looks
00:04:34.820
at me and he goes homie you shouldn't have hopped in the car if you weren't ready to do the dash
00:04:38.420
meaning you know go on a high-speed chase and so they turn the lights off and they just go 105 miles an
00:04:43.940
hour and the cop stops following them are you play i want to see this rob now i'm going to go back 30
00:04:48.960
seconds press play let me hear the audio for cops they said they'd had the car for over a week now
00:04:54.660
that's 105 miles an hour reported no no no not yet this is before the cops was getting hotter and
00:04:58.800
hotter to drive by the day no less than two minutes into our drive i began to hear police sirens
00:05:04.140
perhaps naively i assumed the kia boys would just pull over and try to talk their way out of it but no
00:05:11.600
swervo dipped onto a service road and hit the gas approaching 110 miles brenton
00:05:16.040
you're sitting outside or you're inside i'm sitting in the back seat
00:05:20.540
by some stroke of luck the cops stopped pursuing us i'm not sure why oh now i know why my adrenaline
00:05:28.660
the cops don't pursue time seems to move in hyper speed chases with stolen cars because they figure
00:05:32.880
like it's such a public safety risk you know what i mean if it's a residential street they don't want
00:05:36.460
two cars going 105 miles an hour because that could like kill a pedestrian or something so the
00:05:40.600
cops they abandoned us uh not abandoned us they stopped following us and then i told them to drop
00:05:45.600
me back off at the mcdonald's and then so my plan was like i want to document these guys but i don't
00:05:49.860
want to be in this situation again so i gave them my camcorder for the night and i said you guys i know
00:05:54.400
you guys are going to go steal cars i don't want to come with you i don't condone that but just do me
00:05:58.400
a favor and take this camcorder from best buy and just film yourself what a great concept yeah literally
00:06:05.120
yeah and were they honest enough that they brought it back to you yeah you want to watch the footage
00:06:08.460
do you have it yeah it's on it's in this video where's it at at the end or if you skip ahead
00:06:12.520
10 15 seconds right right there press play let's see what they this is then goes to put a cheap usb
00:06:18.800
cord into the ignition let's watch this i think it's got the update he says the car is a dud the driver
00:06:24.780
recently installed the anti-theft software so this is all they had to find something just a few cars
00:06:30.260
down he locates a 2010 kia forte and starts all over
00:06:43.400
after successfully activating the engine with a usb cord swervo's on the move that's me and i'm
00:06:53.580
following close behind genuinely curious as to what his plan is
00:06:57.280
swervo begins driving as fast as he possibly can then comes to a stop and tells me it's time to
00:07:10.200
yeah so yeah that's their plan is they just start swerving they're really like 16 years old
00:07:21.360
like they swerve for like 20 minutes and then they just abandon the car you're joking so they don't go
00:07:26.260
sell the car they just well apparently like they sell it to their like older brothers for i think
00:07:30.740
250 then they go to the mall and get shoes and the weed socks and what do the older brothers do
00:07:36.320
crime real crime well not this not i'm not saying this isn't a real crime but like you know robbing
00:07:42.060
people you know just low-level stuff yeah they sell drugs i don't know what did you what was your
00:07:47.940
experience when you why when you're on the flight coming back what are you saying to yourself well i
00:07:51.420
didn't even put this in the documentary but i guess the cops had still been following us so i go back
00:07:55.400
to the red roof inn in in bridgeport and the cops knock on the door and they're like do you see
00:07:59.960
anybody with a stolen car around here and i was like dude i don't know what you're talking about
00:08:02.860
yeah i was wow i flew home so you didn't get arrested even when you put this up cops never
00:08:09.240
got a hold of you no they might after this podcast though so but i might have to this thankfully the
00:08:13.000
kia boys are no longer stealing kias but uh yeah well after that that was a classic example of just me
00:08:18.060
taking it too far in the field with the documentaries like if i was to look look back or looking forward
00:08:23.160
in my own life i'm not going to get in the back of any stolen cars with uh 16 year olds in connecticut
00:08:27.240
or any other state for that matter maybe in fort lauderdale maybe oh broward county's got some
00:08:32.600
pretty good drill music i don't know if you know about that is it really yeah it's called 954 fast
00:08:36.760
pitch it's like broward's kind of version of drill they take rap songs and they speed them up 1.25
00:08:42.140
times so it kind of sounds like alvin and the chipmunks but that's like the pompano beach like
00:08:45.980
waterhill sound oh shit you got to get one of those guys on the podcast you ever listen to ben shapiro
00:08:50.580
i i used to yeah for sure when i listen to him he sounds like he talks on 1.5 ben shapiro talks fast
00:08:56.100
his speed is so fast like you know when you watch a podcast on spotify you can listen on 3.5
00:09:02.000
and i can handle it the only person i can listen to 3.5 is is him yeah i have to put a 1.5 because
00:09:07.860
he's like i can't slow it down they got to go to 0.75 with him because he's so fast in a different
00:09:14.080
