[Masta Ace - talking]

Ayo Fats man, I just met this crazy shorty at the store

Very serious man it was-

What's wrong with you?

[Fats - talking]

Yo I came running and I, I heard the shots

And I came running out, I thought you got caught up

In some shit over there

[Masta Ace - talking]

Nah man, I don't fuck with poppies yo

Little young cats always in the front of that store

Shootin' and acting up, ya'know what I mean

I go up the hill to habeeb's

It's a little longer walk but it ain't no problem

[Fats - talking]

Yo here's the deal, Ace

I know you got this little tour coming up, right?

I was thinking since ya'll ain't doing the

Road management thing for you on this trip

Ya'know you might need somebody to hold shit down

For you out there, you know

Kinda' like family

I don't take no shit, but I think I could do a good job

[Masta Ace - talking]

Hold up, hold up all of a sudden you wanna'

Go on the road now?

You ain't slick, Fats what's popping?

[Fats - talking]

Well, I've been speaking to some connections outta' state

[Masta Ace - talking]

Yeah

[Fats - talking]

And I'm gonna' be making a few moves on the side

Nothing that's gonna' like step on your toes or anything

But, being out with you it sorta' makes my thing

Look a little bit more legit, you know kinda' like

Under the radar

[Masta Ace - talking]

Yeah, old man, we ain't gonna' be in New York

And outta' state cops don't play that shit, man

[Fats - talking]

I know, I know but listen I'll tell you what

I'll throw in a couple of cards

Gold Amex's, never been touched

You know that you've been wanting one of those plasma joints

For the living room

[Masta Ace - talking]

So that was it, it was a wrap

I mean for a plasma flatscreen he coulda' been

Road Manager and DJ and hypeman on the tour

So we hit the road, did shows every night

And he would do his hustle thing on the side

He was loving the road too

The parties, the limelight, especially the chicks
