his first ever radio interview was on

a crew called Loop pack and a crew
0:23
called Loop pack uh that we was very fan
0:26
we were very familiar with and fans of
0:28

0:39
none of y'all knew that that was like
0:41
cornbread became my little brother

0:48
like a mean big brother right cuz I was
0:50
tough I give I give tough love the more

2:43
you bring something here oh no cuz this
2:45
L anything but there is something in my
2:47
song I have frequencies in my in my
2:50
music what do you mean so I put special
2:55
healing frequencies in my music that you
2:58
might not even be able to hear here but
3:00
they're like below or at a certain DB
3:03
that's but it'll bring joy and the my
3:06
new single Lea has joy and Oneness with
3:09
God uhuh and Lea that's on the platforms
3:12
that's on the dsps it's not out yet it's
3:14
coming out Friday okay we were digging
3:15
for it no wonder we didn't find it can
3:18
you send us can you uh air drop I sent
3:20
the link okay yeah I think they got the
3:22
exclusive y might yeah I sent you want
3:24
to hear I want to hear that cuz I could
3:25
use some healing I'm trying to F
3:27
frequency and that I mean and that's
3:29
really why I'm doing what I'm doing
3:31
because it's just been as we all know
3:33
it's been crazy and the energy is heavy
3:36
and I'm like right now it's time for the
3:38
light like we have to raise our
3:40
Collective vibration we cannot go down
3:42
with what they want us they want us to
3:45
go down they want us you know and so I'm
3:46
like no now it's our time to make our
3:50
plans and bring the energy where we need
3:52
it to be collectively and that's it you
3:54
know I love it Stacy EP is here wild
3:57
child is here um it so what do you give
4:00
Stacy because when you look at the news
4:03
circuit right now when you the news feed
4:05
it's it's just anything that's coming
4:07
out is derogatory it's it's fearful it's
4:11
it's all of these different chaotic it's
4:13
just there's no peace in the information
4:16
that's being delivered right now yeah
4:18
what do you suggest for folks as
4:20
individuals at home what should people
4:22
be doing I suggest that you take time to
4:25
pull away from that and don't focus on
4:28
that energy and what you're seeing all
4:29
the time and take time to go within and
4:32
tap into those higher vibrations and
4:35
frequencies so really and I know that's
4:37
hard to do sometimes because it's the
4:39
Sea of mental garbage and what they want
4:40
you to think is going on right now but
4:43
being with it with highminded spiritual
4:46
people in community and coming together
4:48
and raising the vibrations and listening
4:51
to music and and you know media and
4:54
things that raise the vibration like
4:56
what you do right you raise the
4:58
vibration you bring People's Energy it's
5:00
Joy when I came in the room it's full
5:01
Joy so I'm like this is this is part of
5:04
it this is part of that mission so yes
5:07
but that's the that's the focus even
5:08
doing good work like what we're doing
5:10
like mad love like it's everyone it's
5:14
just a it's such a beautiful thing is
5:15
how everyone came in and madli himself
5:18
is just like this has got him through
5:21
mad Li give this man a round of applause
5:23
and and what what what the Magnificent
5:26
Stacy EPS is speaking about is tonight
5:28
is a tribute and concert today at the
5:31
Crown Hill theater in Brooklyn New York
5:33
uh they're giving flowers and raising
5:35
funds for Altadena La Fire Relief doors
5:38
open at uh 700 p.m. maybe you're from
5:41
the aladina area you want to share your
5:43
story what your experience has been like
5:45
yeah uh since the fires and postf fires
5:47
so people can understand why the support
5:50
is so important uh Wild Child you hit me
5:53
um directly what can you tell us about
5:56
you know what was experience yourself as
5:58
well man
6:00
man I remember being on like the one1
6:01
freeway 11 11:00 a.m. when the fire
6:05
first broke out M but nobody assumed
6:08
that the wind was going to pick up and
6:09
it just devastated everybody in hours so
6:12
it's just crazy going back thinking with
6:13
mad like we was traveling last year in
6:17
Europe with him and Gibbs and um I was
6:21
with him every day as he was building
6:23
the house but he wasn't making a lot of
6:25
decisions because he was on the go doing
6:27
shows and his girls at home doing things
6:29
so just to over here we're doing this
6:31
we're doing that I don't know you know I
6:33
understand that cuz I I'm a homeowner
6:35
myself so I was just happy that he
6:37
finally got a chance to you know get his
6:40
own place he was finally owning his own
6:42
place so I was witnessing him talking
6:44
about it because he don't really share
6:45
too much yeah to hearing that happen was
6:49
just like yo you know as soon as I hit
6:51
Stacy up I'm like yo what do we we got
6:53
to do something and every time we came
6:55
up with an idea we knew it was going to
6:57
get shut down because you know a lot of
6:59
people's Pride take hold they don't want
7:02
favors and handouts and things like that
7:04
and so I just kept thinking what would
7:07
the two years from now MTB say to
7:09
himself hey you know most people go to
7:12
GoFundMe reach out for support which
7:14
you're not usually thinking you're going
7:16
to be in need of support and then we
7:18
came together with the help of DJ
7:19
spinner and you know it's enough said
7:21
and everybody just started coming
7:22
through so I was like I'm in big up DJ
7:24
spinner DJ spinner keyar Productions
7:27
they were just they were love
7:30
and and bringing this together that's
7:31
why I was like it just came it's like a
7:33
so much love and support every I'm in
7:35
I'm in Mad Li I'm in and you know as a
7:39
such a modest person he's like oh this
7:42
you know he's like all this attention
7:44
you know yeah he's funny fny he's like Y
7:48
come on now I can take a hold of you you
7:50
know most people could fold you know
7:52
what I'm saying luckily he has a that
7:54
willingness and I remember I think I
7:56
heard he was already working on new
7:58
stuff like d he was going through what
8:00
he was going through not a lot of people
8:02
have that confidence to keep moving so
8:04
if there's anything we can do to help
8:06
keep you in the right head space ter
8:07
temporary then you know and give us our
8:10
flowers while we are here that is my
8:13
focus I'm like I also represent Doom MF
8:16
Doom
8:17
Doom you represent
8:21
everybody
8:23
too might need I might need your
8:25
services no she every time I every time
8:27
I need help she's One Call Away
8:30
always but like what I'm seeing with
8:31
doom which I love right is the new
8:33
generation loving his music and he's
8:37
getting all these flowers we did the the
8:39
flognaw tribute with the orchestra in La
8:42

8:44

8:57

9:09
I pressed him for bars today I hope you
9:11
don't mind I told him I'm his uncle so
9:13
he had no he couldn't do nothing I'm his
9:15
uncle man I was there before you
9:17
dog all right go ahead but um but yeah
9:19
we saw I saw this kid walking around I
9:21
was like a teenager and he had a MFD
9:23
mask on thousands of costumes you g rock
9:25
and he's wearing a mask so I'm like yo
9:27
come on over here man what what made you
9:29
get this costume and I didn't say who I
9:30
was or nothing like that and he's like
9:32
oh you know MF Doom I know this and I
9:34
started he started quoting all the songs
9:35
Oh my he was trying to teach me like I
9:36
didn't know that's that's how crazy was
9:39
and I was like yo hold on real quick and
9:40
I just pulled my phone out and I
9:42
FaceTime mad Li I didn't tell him though
9:45
or I did a video I think I did a video
9:46
he started crying he started crying yeah
9:48
cuz I didn't want to like I wanted a
9:50
genuine genuine U reaction from him like
9:53
yo madb check this out this dude's like
9:55
16 years old walking around here you
9:58
know talking about M villain this mad
10:00
villain that and it hit him it hit me
10:02
too we both had a moment but it was just
10:03
crazy cuz like she said with this
10:05
generation Timeless it'd be crazy if
10:08
Doom saw that you know what I'm saying
10:09
like my son he don't cuss but he almost
10:12
cussed me out cuz I never told him I was
10:14
part of the Mad villain album he didn't
10:16
know I you didn't tell why not we don't
10:19
really talk about just Daddy Dad son
10:22
things no no no I forgot what he said
10:24
but it was just like how are my friends
10:25
telling me you on this and you're not
10:27
telling me I'm like you know that was
10:29
your first rap concert at four but since
10:31
then you've grown you just you just a
10:33
kid to me you're not like I got to
10:34
inform you this is what's going on
10:36
alcoholics this this no no but it just
10:40
kind of true like she was saying it just
10:41
transcends Generations that Doom
10:43
probably could have had way more flowers
10:45
than he got before he left you know so
10:47
it's just crazy man so what was it like
10:49
working with doom yo that was when I got
10:53
that bad signal I literally was tripping
10:55
cuz he's so quiet it seemed like
10:57
everybody mad him was working with
10:58
around was just like Dylan Doom you know
11:02
I think I just tripped out cuz we went
11:03
to a club and I didn't really drink that
11:06
much back then and I still don't this
11:08
much down but he was like yo I'm going
11:09
to get you some whiskey shots this and
11:10
this that like yo hold slow slow down
11:13
slow and we went had a drink but we were
11:16
in a club and I was tripping because
11:18
everyone was approaching Mad Lib you
11:20
know and giving him props or whatnot
11:22
Doom didn't have his mask on uhhuh and
11:25
I'm just sitting there like is no one
11:27
seeing Clark Kent right here like saw n
11:30
no one ever it was just like he had that
11:32
such a a facade and even like I said
11:36
four years old I was at a dance event
11:37
that you know just AO just years ago
11:40
with miles miles was at just a he was at
11:44
there this was at he was four years old
11:47
and the people told me we had a day off
11:50
and doom happens to be rocking in Paris
11:52
so me I myself haven't I've rocked with
11:55
doom but I've never went to a concert as
11:56
a fan M and I was like oh man can you
11:58
pull some some strings and get my son in
12:00
with me man this is 21 hour that was his
12:02
first rap country he only been to Funk
12:04
and R&B soul country so he's the back
12:07
top rocking the doom and stuff and all
12:08
he said was I just want the mask I
12:11
didn't hear the lyrics but I want the
12:12
mask so years later I finally got him
12:13
