(Profile, 1991)
We did that record just to make money in the neighborhood. We didn’t want to sell drugs and we really didn’t want to work at Taco Bell no more. So we started doing underground tapes and putting the homies’ names in them cuz we figured “even if we can’t rap or these beats suck, if we just mention one of the homeboys’ names they’re going to spend ten dollars on this motherfucker, so we’re going to be making at least a good twenty dollars a day.” We were the first people to come out rocking red, doing it the gangsta way from a Blood core. I think that was a selling point: We were the first Bloods doing it and we had talent. We weren’t just run-of-the-mill bustas. Recording the album was a weird thing for me cuz I had never been in the studio before, with all them knobs and shit. Keep in mind I was just a 19-year-old dude, like I didn’t really know nothing. So the shit comes out like January 21st of 1991 and my life has never been the same since.
