You’re known as part of the Mob Figaz, but would you describe yourself more as a rapper or a pimp?
I been having hoes since like [the year] 2000, but I don’t consider myself a pimp. I’m a hustler, I’m not a pimp. It’s pimping, it’s in the game, it’s having hoes and shit, but I’m not a pimp. A pimp is a nigga that has a hoe, but if he loses that hoe, he’s gotta knock another hoe to survive. I don’t have to knock no bitch to survive. I’m a man of many trades. I have many hustles.
How do you “knock” a hoe?
Me, I ain’t never had to recruit a hoe. Hoes done chose up on a nigga. I ain’t never have to sweat no bitch and be all in her ear like that. A bitch sees a fly nigga with something who’s doing his thing. A bitch gets tired of living underneath the earth; she wants to fly through the sky and see the stars so she’s gonna come fuck with a real nigga. I ain’t never had to recruit a bitch, but I have had hoes that recruited other bitches. I like my hoes to knock hoes. I don’t have to get out there and do no footwork.
What’s the benefit for them? What can you offer a woman that would make her give up her freedom and choose you?
I got a lot to offer. First of all, I’m a good nigga. I know what a female likes. To understand the game you gotta know what bitches like. These bitches wanna be taken care of. A bitch doesn’t wanna be out there puttin’ her life on the line if a nigga ain’t doing shit for her. Being in the game, these bitches know they have to be up under somebody ‘cause it’s hella gorilla pimps out there. The game is shady. It’s muthafuckas that be kidnappin’ these hoes, beatin’ these hoes up, holdin’ these hoes for ransom, all types of shit. But I got a lot to offer a bitch. Look at me, I live in a nine bedroom mansion, I’m driving Maseratis, Corvettes, Range Rovers, anything I wanna drive. Bitches see that lifestyle and want it. Like I tell a bitch, “To make a million dollars you gotta look like a million dollars.” When they get out there on these tricks you can’t have no raggedy lookin’ bitches. You want your bitch to be lookin’ top notch. I ain’t never had to beat up my hoes or none of that shit ‘cause my bitches are supposed to be out there lookin’ good. If I gotta beat her I sho’ don’t need her. Some of these bitches need to get the shit slapped out of ‘em, but me being me, I’d rather fire these hoes. Having a bitch is too easy for me. It’s nothing.
So how are they disciplined if they disrespect you?
I mean, I’ma check a bitch. I’ll snatch a bitch up or something but I’m not gonna beat the bitch up. If I feel the bitch is really a problem, I’ma fire the bitch. The thing is, bitches don’t even disrespect me like that. If you’re a solid nigga, your bitch ain’t gonna disrespect you. Your bitch knows how to stay in pocket and hold it down. But if you’re a punk-ass nigga, these bitches are gon’ smell that shit and try to run over you. They’re gonna smell that you a softy so they’re gonna do whatever they can to get over on you. But I don’t have to go through those problems.
You said you have a number of different hustles. From a financial perspective, is the pimp game better or worse than your other hustles? What is your typical income?
Hoe money is good money. I live in Vegas. My hoes got regulars. I don’t have my hoes out there walkin’ the carpet or walkin’ the hoe stroll. They done knocked a millionaire muthafucka and he’s like a sugar daddy to them and wants to take care of ‘em. They still get out there, hit the clubs, and do what they gotta do. But hoe money, that’s some real good money. They can get $20,000 or $30,000 at a time from these muthafuckas. It ain’t like the rap game. The rap game is going under and sales are going under. You gotta keep your hustle. I got a million different hustles. I’ve even got a barber license. I can cut hair but ain’t nothing like hoe money ‘cause they get it every day. With this music business, I gotta wait for a check every three months. I’ll get paid $100,000 or something but I gotta wait three months. Every day these bitches are getting $5,000 or $10,000. You know, you’ve got your slow days, though. The most a hoe ever gave me was $120,000. I couldn’t even believe it, I thought I was dreaming. I’ve had hoes choose up with like $10,000. I won’t accept anything less than $10,000, but this bitch chose me with $120,000. That was something big to me. Hoe money is the best money to me ‘cause it keeps coming. It’s like legal dope. Sex sells.
What’s the typical background of a female that chooses to be a hoe? Why go that route?
Half of these bitches have never felt loved in their life. They ain’t have no family, or they were fucking niggas for free so they might as well get paid for the shit. If you’re just a slut, running around fucking niggas, why not get paid for it? You’re doing the same thing, but now you’re benefitting from it. Some of these bitches chose to be that way. Some of them come from rich families, but they wanna get out there and make that money. Some of these bitches are addicted to doing it. I got this one hoe right now, she don’t give a shit, every day she wanna hit the track. The track is so old-school to me, but she’s just such a down bitch she always wants to go to the track. She came from a good family in Portland, but she’s just so used to going out there and gettin’ it. She can’t quit. She just likes the hustle of it. She’s like, “Damn daddy, I gotta go get some money.” She’ll make $5,000 and I’m like, “Okay, it’s cool, come in for the night.” She’s like, “Uh uh, fuck that, I’m finna go make some money.” I take my bitches to do nice shit but they constantly wanna go get it so I ain’t gonna tell ‘em no. [They just want me to] be there for ‘em if they go to jail or anything happens. That’s how a lot of these niggas lose bitches, cause they go to jail and these niggas don’t bail ‘em out. It’s a lot of shit [other pimps] don’t do that they supposed to be doing.
You referred it “legal dope,” but technically, prostitution is illegal. Are the laws in Las Vegas more accepting than the rest of the country?
No, they don’t play. They do these sweeps called P.I.M.P. where they arrested 300 or 400 hoes a night. They be crackin’ down on that shit. People think [prostitution] is legal in Vegas. Hell nah, that shit is not legal. It’s legal on the outskirts of Vegas, but prostitution is not legal in Vegas. You know [most] bitches are hoes because of the way they’re dressed, so I stepped my game up. I’ve got my bitches lookin’ like tourists. They look like party girls, like, “Hey, we’re in Las Vegas, let’s go party. Let’s hit a club.” I don’t have my hoes at the bar tryin’ to knock a trick. That’s so old now. Hopefully whoever’s reading this is gonna learn. I’m giving them the game. I ain’t no greedy muthafucka. Start putting these bitches in the VIP at the clubs and knocking these millionaires.
On a typical night in Vegas, what percentage of females that you see out are working?
Oh my God, shit, at least 90-95% of them bitches are out there working.
Who’s paying for all this? What’s the typical demographic of a trick?
Your hoes aren’t supposed to talk to no niggas. Nobody black, period. Niggas aren’t trying to pay no bitches. C’mon, man. Niggas are trying to knock bitches. Niggas are trying to pimp these hoes, not pay a bitch. Don’t get me wrong, though, there are some trick-ass niggas out there. Some niggas act like they’re pimps but they’re tricking on the low. But my bitches know they aren’t even supposed to look at a nigga. Keep it moving. If you’re with me and we’re shopping or whatever and I’m talking to a nigga, my bitches know to keep it moving anyway. Go look for something in a store. But the typical [tricks] are white, Indian, or Chinese. The muthafuckas that [are] out there drunk and partying, sitting at the crap table spending hella money.
Do your hoes live with you?
Nah, none of them live with me. I’ve got three hoes right now – two of ‘em stay together and one stays in her own place. I can’t have hoes living in my mansion. But they’ve got nice places though. They’ve all got nice cars – one of ‘em has a Jaguar and two of ‘em have Mercedes [Benzes]. That’s all from me doing my job, making sure they’re riding nice and looking good. I ain’t got time to be driving these hoes here and there so I get ‘em their own shit. They make good money. If you wanna keep a good bitch you gotta take care of them hoes or they will choose up very fast.
Do you have sex with them also or is it strictly a professional thing?
Two bitches I got, I ain’t never slept with. One of ‘em I have slept with, but before I slept with her she wasn’t out there [hoeing] like that. I try to keep my dick out [of] these bitches. It’s diseases and shit going around out there. The thing this, a bitch ain’t meant to be kept. These bitches don’t belong to me, they belong to the game. That’s what a lot of niggas don’t know. [Since] I’m not fucking these hoes, I know one day they’re gon’ be gone, ‘cause they want some loving and some dick. But me being me, I really can’t do it like that.
If you don’t have sex with your hoes, what kind of women do you have sex with?
I’ma sleep with a real lady. These hoes can’t be my bitch like that. I want a real lady. There’s nothing like having a solid lady who understands what you have going on, who’s really there to have your back. I ain’t trying to wife these bitches. I want a real lady who ain’t in the game so I can fuck her hella good, bust a nut all in her mouth and in her pussy, and do whatever I wanna do. Like I say, it’s shit going around and these niggas be raw-doggin’ the shit outta these hoes. I know. These bitches are sleeping with hella different muthafuckas and sucking hella different muthafuckas’ dicks. It ain’t just about AIDS, it’s all types of shit you can get. You can wear a rubber and still get something from these bitches. You can get crabs, anything. You’ll be wondering why you got a rash around your dick. But the bitches I’ve got, honest to God, half of the time they don’t even sleep with the [tricks]. These muthafuckas just wanna be around ‘em, they escort these bitches around and look good. Some of my bitches are like, “I didn’t even do nothing, I just gave him a hand job,” or, “He just took me shopping.” It ain’t always fucking. If you lace a bitch right and she’s got a mouthpiece, she ain’t gotta be out there fucking all the time. She can use her mouthpiece and get thousands off top.
What’s the difference between a female on the track getting a few bucks for a blow job and a female that’s bringing in $120,000?
You gotta have a pretty bitch fa’ sho’. The way she looks and carries herself off top. Just like niggas be on bad bitches, tricks are the same way. Niggas see Kim Kardashian and be on her, but it’s hoes out there that look way better than she does. There’s real hoes walking around here making that hoe look like she’s an average piece of shit. Niggas see bad bitches and they be on ‘em.
Do you think the game is degrading towards women, or do you feel like they chose to be in that lifestyle?
I don’t feel like it’s disrespectful women because they chose to do whatever they did. Nobody put a gun to their head. A lot of these bitches act like they’re not happy with certain dudes they fuck with, but if you wanted to you could get away from that muthafucka. It ain’t hard. You ain’t around that muthafucka 24 hours a day so if you ain’t happy you can go. That’s what you choose to do. That’s part of the game. If you choose to [be a hoe] you gotta accept whatever comes with it. I don’t think it’s disrespectful to women, unless you kidnapped the bitch and threatened her. I tell my bitches, before any of this shit, you a lady. You’re a woman so I’ma respect you like that. This is just a hustle. It’s not a job for me. I don’t wake up, puttin’ on a pimp suit, walkin’ around knocking. I’m a hood nigga, so you’re gonna see me in some Timbs, jeans, white tee, and a fitted cap.
What is your ultimate goal as far as rap is concerned?
My ultimate goal is to be a young billionaire. If I don’t make it with rapping like I should, I’m happy with the little bit I got. Pimping is just a hustle to me. I don’t want to be like that my whole life. I’m just a young street nigga.
To what extent do you have to provide protection for your females?
You can’t always be around the hoes like that. There was one nigga that sweated my hoe too tough and put his hands on her and I had to go check him, but he didn’t know it was my hoe. A hoe can’t say, “I fuck with AP9.” She’s outta pocket right there, as soon as she opens her mouth. So I’ve had to check a nigga before, but once a nigga finds out that’s my bitch, he’ll leave her alone. I’m a factor. I ain’t a regular-ass nigga, so niggas respect me. I’m just a real nigga. My street credibility and background is real tough. I’m solid all the way.
When it comes to sex, what’s the differences you’ve observed between different races of females?
Crazy white bitches love sucking dick. I had this one bitch that’s all she ever wanted to do was suck my dick. It was like a whole month and I ain’t even get the pussy. I was gettin’ scared like, what the fuck? This bitch ain’t giving me no pussy. This bitch ain’t wanna do nothing but suck a nigga and swallow me. All types of races of bitches are freaky in some certain way. Me, I go for that exotic shit. I like exotic bitche,s man. I never really had no blonde chicks. I had hoes like that, but I ain’t never had just a blonde chick. I love my sisters, don’t get it wrong, I love that thick shit. I like ass, I’m not a titty dude.
Who brings in the most money?
I got this one white bitch who gets some good money, man. I mean, that’s all I’ve got is white bitches, so they all bring in good money. This one had been in the game and when I knocked her she had regular tricks already. They’re flyin’ her to Cancun and she went to Brazil and the Bahamas with them. So she brings home good money. Every bitch brings good money home, but that one, she really goes and gets it.
On another note, should we be expecting any new music from you?
We’re doing another Mob Figaz album but we’re waiting for Hus to come home in 2010. Everybody’s doing their little solo thangs. I’ve got a new album called I Am Legend that’ll be out in February. It’s almost done. I’ve got my own label, Mob Shop Entertainment. I’m running my own label, young entrepreneur, getting this independent money right now. I’m paying myself, writing my own checks.
How would you describe your sound?
I’m just a hood nigga. I’m from the Bay Area so a lot of people think I’m on that hyphy shit. But I’m not with that bullshit. I’m a reality rapper. I’m on some hood shit. I’m on some busting-a-nigga-head-open shit, gettin’-money type shit. One of my favorite rappers is Young Jeezy. Jeezy keeps it so fuckin’ hood, I love it. That’s the type of rapper I am. I like that type of shit. I just gotta be me. I was a “hyphy” muthafucka. Man, I don’t ghostride my whips. My shit cost a hundred and some thousand, I ain’t finna jump on my hood.
How can people get in touch with you?
