So its 2006 and a couple months into this dream of being signed to G-Unit and I'm living in CT at the G-Unit mansion with 50, his assistant, engineer and my friend/hypeman Carnegie (R.I.P.) :to: I finished my album "Fastlane" in the first 2 weeks of me being there so now I was rehearsing my lines, performance, and shyt that I would need to have in cooperation with the music. (Best advice I've gotten from Fif was, to be a superstar you must have 4 qualities: Peronality, Performance, Appearance, and Material) :obama:

Sooooooo, coming up in 2 weeks I had my first performance in Orlando which was an Interscope Records showcase which featured all of the newer artists at the time, as well as other established artist that were on Interscope... It was like a talent show to see if we really had what it takes and to showoff the new ponies that had been in training at the time.....

Me and Carnegie were living the life recording music, working out, myspacing hoes, you know it was crackin.... Now there was a strict security rule at 50's mansion that we all as a team knew not to break.. NO RANDOM bytchES AT THE MANSION!!! So obviously me and my nikka Carnegie didn't wanna fukk up this situation so we abided by this rule with no problems... I had my laptop and there was WIFI in the house, so I took that time to become better acquainted with Pornhub, XNXX, Xhamster, and various other pleasure sites that were up and coming at the time.... :ahh:

So we were all in the studio one day and Fif went overseas for business so we had the crib to ourselves... One of Fifs assistants starts hittin up bytches on Myspace (the shady "browse" feature was a nikkas best friend ;) ) and he starts showing us all these bytches he was tryna invite over... I'm sittin there like "cmon man we cant have no pointless hoes over here my nikka, I aint tryna get caught up.. "

Him and his boy was there like, "Naw man its cool we do it all the time, yall find some bytches so we can get it poppin" :demonic:


So me and Carnegie are lookin at each other like, as long as we don't call no bytches over then we are straight.. So we hit up some chicks but don't really invite them over and said we struck out..

The assistant and his boy round up a crew full of bytches for the crew and we end up having a cool little kickback/pool party at the crib and shyt goes down... (If you ever want to see how bytches get down, take them to a superstars mansion... anything goes) :banderas:


So the bytches leave hella early in the morning and everything is all good at this point..... All of a sudden the assistant nikka calls me over the intercom to see him in the studio... I walk in and he hands me a Dwayne wade sidekick and says, its Fif.... I grab it and I'm like "Wuttup Fif!! Whats poppin?"


There's a loooooong pause and he goes.... "nikka are you fukkin stupid??...... You tryna get killed out here??"" :birdman:

Im like, "Huh, what you talking about??" :what:

He goes, " You inviting bytches from the internet over to my house??? Really?? You're done nikka, you goin home.. You aint ready for this shyt... (CLICK!!).."

The nikka hung up in my face my nikkasssss!! Heart dropppped and I'm heeeeeeeeeated.. :damn: I go to the assistant nikka like yo wut the fukk nikka?? What you say to this nikka!! :dahell:

Now I could tell this cat was shady from the jump and didnt really fukk with me cus I was a west coast nikka who was gettin hellla attention from his boss, so it seemed fishy...

He was like.. "nikka you shouldn't have invited bytches over... Im getting you and Carnegies plane tickets booked now..." :umad:

COLI NIGGGAAAAAAAAAS!!! WHEN I TELL YOU I WAS READY TO RIP THIS nikkaS HEAD OFF AND SPIT DOWN HIS NECK!!!! I'M GETTIN HEATDDDD TYPIN THIS shytTT RIGHT NOW WOWWFDDFDFDFDFDF I WAS ON FIRE!! (<---------- Ima keep those typos) If my mom wouldn't have ever whooped me in life, I woulda murdered that nikka dead ass... all jokes aside....

Im like "What??? You and that other nikka invited them bytches over nikka!!!" You fukkin with me right now???" :damn:


He just dipped and went upstairs... I felt like I was about to turn into a fukkin Werewolf and eat this nikkas soul off, but I had to compose myself.. I tell Carnegie the news and now it was time to get out of this sticky situation....... (To be continued........)

P.s. We were still negotiating the recording contract so nothing is signed at this point... soooooooo he could send me home and I'd be a wrap......... yeah I'll finish this later, I gotta mix this record....

Ok so continuing on from "How I almost fukked up my record deal" story....



He just dipped and went upstairs... I felt like I was about to turn into a fukkin Werewolf and eat this nikkas soul off, but I had to compose myself.. I tell Carnegie the news and now it was time to get out of this sticky situation.......

So I called Fif back to explain the situation and he wasn't having it... He said "Yall nikkas go back home and think about this shyt... And remember you have a performance coming up so you better be rehearsing everyday cus if you fukk up its a wrap for you..." :ufdup:

Im soooooo fukkin mad but, once I heard that, I realized that I WASN'T finished for good... I had to deliver on this performance and I had to deliver well..


So our flight info comes in and I refrain from any contact with the assistant nikka for the rest of the time.. Me and Carnegie fly back to Phoenix, AZ...

We were on the grind rehearsing our set for the showcase... I was gonna do 3 Records.. Be Easy, Chase Da Cat, and Rock To it... This was only with adlibb backing tracks so it was on me not to fukk up the words. (Not like today where performers rap over the whole track) :childplease:


So we rehearsed everyday up until we had to fly out to Orlando for the event... We had it down so we were confident that we would kill the show.. When we land at the airport in Orlando we hop in the car service and head to the Hotel... We haven't spoke to Fif since leaving the house so that was nerve-wracking but we had to fight through and act as men.... We checked in and immediately began rehearsing in the room to make sure we had our shyt in order... We had no idea what was to come or when our time-slot was but that shyt didnt bother us at the time...


We get dressed and have a few cocktails as our call-time was approaching.. We head to the lobby and chill for a few and we run into Fif's Lawyer Theo...

He comes up and says "hey Rod whats up, you good??" :smugbiden:

Im like, "Yeah man just ready to kill this show and keep pushin."

He goes, "Well I heard about what happened at the Mansion, hopefully you make better decisions in the future." :smugfavre:

Im like "mannnnnn its a long story but I definitely will stop and think before acting in any manner going forward."

So this nikka goes in his bag and pulls out a folder full of papers and holds them up. He says "Look, here's your recording and pub contracts... Fif told me if you fukk this show up, I have orders to burn these up immediately and you will be sent home. Good luck Kid..... " :smugdraper:

Then he dipped off.....


MANNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!! ........ At this moment I felt like I was in a fukkin movie... If there wasn't a studio audience watching this I've seen everything... Like, does this kinda sht happen to everyone?? That shyt put ULTRA PRESSURE ON US!! I started gettin bentttttt after that cus a nikkas nerves were :dead:


SOOOOOOOOOOOO a few shots later.....


Me and Carnegie look at each other and go back to the room to rehearse a bit more before heading down to the event.

We finally meet up with Fif at the designated area and we shake up. He's cool, doesn't bring up the house shyt.. :whew:

We just chill and started meeting everyone that was there. We were mingling with the Interscope staff going back and forth just shootin the shyt as always.

The showcase starts and I forget who the new acts were but they were pretty mediocre. Pharrell performed and he introduced some new acts, hella other acts were there but I just can't remember who, my bad... Now we find out that I'm the headliner of the showcase... MY NERVES DIED AGAINNNN..

PRESSURE ON MAX ..

MORE SHOTS PLEASE :noah:


Now Me and Carnegie are rehearsing in between patron shots hoping this shyt goes well... We take a sec and they say "Rod yall going on after the Flipmode set"..

I ask how long and they said 10-15 mins... I said "Cool"... We go over there to watch and you wont believe this shyt my nikkas....

Muthafukkin BUSTA AND SPLIFF STAR WAS ON STAGE PERFORMING.... THESE nikkaS DID A FULL OUT SHOW LITERALLY FOR 45 MINUTES TO AN HOUR!! GOING BACK N FORTH, TOSSING THE MIC AROUND.. THESE nikkaS MIGHT AS WELL BEEN DOING BACKFLIPS AND BLOWING FIRE OUT OF THEIR MOUTH WITH MONKEYS AND BEARS RIDING AROUND JUGGLING ON STAGE!! THEY HAD THE CROWD WYLINNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!! Me and Carnegie were look at each other like :sadbron::to::wow::damn::flabbynsick::mjcry::pacspit::mindblown::snoop:


I thought these nikkas show would never end my nigggaas.... My sadness was on max.... That shyt felt personal.. It was like Busta was gonna perform until I stole a towel from the pool area and threw that muthafukka on stage..... I was bout to grab a white flag from the souvenir store and wave that muthafukka hella hard while standing in the front row...


Soooo this nikka finally ends his show and fireworks might as well have been going off... Now its showtime..

Im standing there with Fif and Carnegie and he's like "You ready?"

Im like "yeah fukk that nikka we gon kill this shytttt, lets go".. :cape:

Fif introduces me and everyone is going wild!!.....

The beat to "Chase Da Cat" drops aaaaaaand nikkas LOSE IT!! I was supposed to Do "Be Easy" first BUT Fif changed the set after seeing Busta tryna body a nikka with his set... So Fif starts it off doing the hook to Chase Da Cat and it set it off perfectly... We running around like kings performing perfect, missing no words and Chemistry was on 100.. We're in a zone at this point..:banderas:

Fif hypemans the next couple of joints along with Carnegie and the crowd was dying of happiness the whole time.. BANGGGGGGGG WE MURDERED THAT shyt


Nigggaaaaaaaa that shyt felt like I was taking the elevator to Heaven my nikkas.. We hopped off stage and everyone ran up hugging nikka taking pix, autographs etcc... Pharrell came up to me and shook my hand and gave me a few compliments, Busta ran up and we shook up, I told that nikka to never do that shyt to me again or we beeeefinnn hahahaaa .. Iovine came up, everyone mannnn it was crazyyyy..

Theo runs up with the contracts afterwards and goes "Congratulations my man you came through in the clutch!" I hugged the nikka and we all went back to the Hotel and hit up the afterparty...... Gooooood fukkin time my nikkas

I was speechless, it was like I won the damn Super Bowl... I got chills just now while typing this shyt..

Anyways like I said before, Im freestyle typing so you get the point.. EPIC MOMENT but it was just the beginning... crazy shyttt, yall don't even know
