heck, this fuck. And I remember seeing a girl I don't know who she is till this day, but I always wonder. But she, I think it was a Daytona, a great Daytona, if I'm not mistaken. She had like yellow brakes, but I was like she's a badass, like I want to be her, like it was just so cool to see a female on the scene and then it's all dominated by males and I was like one day, one day, like, look this shitty ass car. Like I know, my shit ain't nothing, this little V6. So I really started working a lot Like, at the time I was enrolled in college, I took a loan out, started opening credit cards, like very focused on my finance part, because I wanted a charger.
Speaker 1:Like I was like, oh my God, I want it. So I worked my way like I was working two jobs and then saved up for my down payment took a long time and I was like, okay, I'm ready. So coming up towards it's still covid time. Um, what is it? Um, in may of 2021 is when I got the Hellcat and I was like, okay, I'm popping out to the meets now for real. Like.
Speaker 1:I'm about to show the fuck out. So there I go, um, I pop out. I was not scared. I know there was a lot of bad reputation at the time about the car already. Like you gotta be careful because things are happening to the people with these kind of cars. But I was like, nah, like I'm good. I was carrying. At the time my stepdad was like you're going to carry, I don't care, even if you're not 21. Like you got to have some shit on you. He's like if you ever get caught with it, we're dealing with it later on. Like you just got to.
Speaker 2:Hey, the old saying is I'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by six.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's true, that's facts. So I mean, I had a good time. You know, a lot of people didn't know who I was. I'd pop out and my car was really tinted so they'd think I was a guy. They'd be like, hey, rev that shit, bro. And I'm like I'm a hoe girl, I'm a hoe girl, but okay. And then once, like I would come out of the car, everybody said, oh my God, this is yours, this is yours. I'm like, yeah, this is mine. Like some people thought like, nah, no way, this is your boyfriend's. I'm like, no, this is my shit for real.
Speaker 1:Like I got rid of my V6. So that's when I started getting curious about wanting to do burnouts. And you know what? How do you do donuts? I would watch, um, jensen. Hello, I'm Jensen. Um, I was very inspired by his YouTube videos and his tutorials on how to do donuts. Um, till this day, I really don't got the hang of it, but I would hope in the future that I can get some more practice, um, so we can really get the show going in the near future.
Speaker 1:Okay, yeah for sure, so that happened.
Speaker 2:Hold on one second. We kind of prematurely jumped into the podcast. She had the motherfucking shit popping off, she telling me the stories and shit, and I'm like, oh man, fuck that hit record, hit record. So yeah, it's your boy, the hood floors you tuning in to the motherfucking rollback show and we got one of the first females that was on the scene with a hill cat in studio with us today. Go ahead, introduce yourself, hi everyone.
Speaker 1:My name is lc garcia. A lot of you people know me on instagram as lcxlsa. You don't have me on instagram.
Speaker 2:I highly recommend you follow me facts a baddie, and a heel cat at that. Thank you motherfucking um, thank you, motherfucking. So how long have you been on the scene? You said you've been here since 2020?.
Speaker 1:Yeah, since 2020. When COVID first hit and that was all there was to do on the weekend was hit downtown and follow all the cars to the next spot. When White Castle was popping Like that was a big thing.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Out there burking all that.
Speaker 2:It's crazy, right, because my first experience with the Takeovers in 2020 was on 87th, and I didn't know that they was going to a next location, so I didn't follow them, or I would have been in the scene that early too. I'm just like shit. Well, time to go home a lot of us.
Speaker 1:I feel like we were just following the next car that we seen, like, oh, you got a little sporty car or whatever. I'm gonna follow you to wherever you're going, because you must know where you're going, because I didn't know at the time I was just like I seen it on Facebook. And then, next thing, you know, I don't know what other locations they're going to, but I see that they're all driving together as a group to the next spot, so I just tagged along you know.
Speaker 1:And then when it was too hot, it was like, okay, it's time to go home.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so you never swung. You was never media, just straight spectator here for the love of the scene.
Speaker 1:Yes. So I'd go with my girls and we'd smoke up, we'd hotbox the car, we'd just chill, park up, drink a little, sip a little, get out the car If it was nice, if it wasn't too cold because at the time it was real cold until we got to the springtime but yeah, we were just chilling a little kickback at the meets. It was something chill that we got to do aside from partying, like if we wanted to like take a break from partying every weekend. We were like, fuck it, let's just go to the meet, like let's just do something, laid back and we're just together, just cruise around. That was like my favorite thing to do was be in the city. Like I'm not a city girl. I always been a hood girl. I grew up out west, then, um, moved to the burbs, but, man, I love the city. That's how I got familiar with the city. Like I really didn't know my way around the city until I started doing like going to the meets, um, and just cruising around, getting to know everywhere, all the streets, um.
Speaker 2:So it was a nice experience for sure so how long have you been removed from the scene?
Speaker 1:because I don't see you out much, oh no so after the whole incident with me getting shot, um I kind of stopped because I'd seen a lot of like drama. I'd pop out here and there but I was very scared because I didn't know.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that PTSD is real. It is real, real, real and it's fucked up. But I was just very nervous to be out. Anytime I drove my car once it got fixed, I was like sweaty, Like I couldn't drive the car without my hands getting sweaty and holding the steering wheel I was always like looking behind my back I was like I know, they're still out there, they're out there.
Speaker 1:And I was like I know they're still out there. They're out there and I was like, if I go to a meet like I feel like I'm putting myself in a vulnerable situation, like look, she's like this person's back out again, let's do it all over again. So, um, I did pop out. I ended up meeting um demon time, oh so, and srt world, and that's when I was like, okay, I feel a little more comfortable because now I'm getting to know people and I trust you. So if you guys go out, I'll go out.
Speaker 1:So it was more like a parking show. After I kind of stood away from the car meets and then I would just go to like any parking shows. Um, I remember one time demon time mo popped out with his demon and we were outside. That was for a good minute. You know it was for that weekend, but that was pretty much it. I would pop out to like big events Chicago versus everybody, 4th of July, mexican Independence Day, like major events where I knew it was going to be stupid, packed and not just just one particular takeover crowd and that's it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so I felt more secure with other, a lot of people being around okay for sure, um, but I did kind of see the takeovers declining with the type of audience that are attending now. It's not the same OGs, it's not, um, the people that I I used to see back in 2020. It's a whole new crowd now. It's very young, it's like getting younger and younger and I'm like, okay, no. And to me I'm just like, okay, yeah, it's not safe from what I'm seeing.
Speaker 1:Um, just like different events and sad stories that I've heard of people like dying, they crashed going to the next spot, or they're drunk as shit and they lost control of their car and now somebody died, or multiple people. So that made me very sad in how everyone's entitled to their own opinion, whether you agree or not. But I just found it fucked up that it was like nothing, like, oh, two people died in a hellcat. Like all right, let's do the meet next week again, all over again. Like I know life moves on. But it was kind of just like, out of respect, out of courtesy, we should be like chill. Or there was a shootout that me and somebody got shot, and it's just like, can we give it a break? Like the car meet's not going anywhere. So I kind of was just like okay, I can't like, I can't be surrounded by that mentality.
Speaker 2:But you got to understand, though, most of the people that attend these meets are already desensitized to death. We grew up in. Like me, for example, I grew up on 79th Street. I saw my first murder at fucking nine years old. You know what I'm saying. So, like throughout the course of life, I didn't witness so many close people to me die or being up close and personal to somebody I don't know dying and like death is just a normal thing, like shit. But I'm not gonna sit here and deny like I didn't take a step away from the scene because I didn't like the fact. It was more so for me. It was more it was. It wasn't about them taking a break, it was more so about it. It wasn't about them taking a break, it was more so about it losing structure. Like it just was. It was no longer controlled chaos, it was just chaos.
Speaker 1:Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2:That's. That's that's what had made me step away. But, coming back into it, I popped outside for the first time, for real, for real, and 1125. Okay, like that was my first meet, but now I'm traveling, so it's a different experience, Right In that aspect too, going to legal pits and shit like that.
Speaker 1:so I agree.
Speaker 1:Yeah, for sure pits and shit like that.
Speaker 1:So I agree, yeah, for sure. Um, I do agree with like losing structure. I mean even that too bothered me, like oh, we can't keep a solid spot. But I know like the meat was really hot, like at some point it was really hot and five was not fucking around. They were like, yeah, y'all not coming to this spot.
Speaker 1:Um, I what was my recent me? I did go recently. It was like after independence that I was just like okay, I'm just like going to a spot and then like we're good there for like a good two, three minutes and then everybody's leaving to the next spot and it's good for like a solid three minutes and then it's again. I was just like, okay, yeah, no, this is not the same, this is not for me. So it's just like I, okay, yeah, no, this is not the same, this is not for me. So I was just like I would rather stick to the parking chills. And then I got into the whole legal pits too, like I did go to Florida for that and I really fucked with that. I was like okay, you went to Florida.
Speaker 2:I fucked with this. Yes, yeah, jacksonville, yep, tell me about your experience.
Speaker 1:When was it? Was it in May or April, sometime, I can't even recall. But I went to Jacksonville. I started seeing the flyer All over Instagram and I was just like, okay, this looks really cool, like there's a bunch of lineups With all these YouTubers. I really like YouTubers.
Speaker 2:Did you fly or you drove I?
Speaker 1:drove there, I drove there. I drove there with my car and everyone knows I'm on E85. It was one of the scariest trips I've ever taken. I did have the five-gallon. I had two tanks of five-gallon gas E85.
Speaker 2:Why are you running E85?
Speaker 1:To get the most out of my horsepower. Okay, I have my cars out of my horsepower Okay. I have my cars tuned my little project car but I did do full E85 versus a dual pump so I could get the most out of the horsepower.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:So that's what I decided. I mean, my tuner gave me the option of the dual so I wouldn't struggle. But yeah, I ended up driving out there. It was like a last minute thing. I was thinking about like having a trailer take it out there, but I was like, nah, let me just. I want to live for the experience. Let's do a trip in my car.
Speaker 1:I've never driven far as fuck with my car, so from here all the way to Florida, it was a mission, but it was successful. I went with my little brother, but it was successful. I went with my little brother. He's 17. He's 18 now, but he's into the car scene too and he likes Mopars. And I was like there's going to be a lot of Mopars. Like, let's go. So, yeah, we took a trip out there. I seen the Chicago people out here 392 Frost was there, I think me and him started to talk more because I was like I don't know anybody else in the car scene. So I was like, hey, I'm going to Florida and I see that you're going. Like, can we tag a line? Like you know, I'm going to be in a different B&B, and so was him and all the other people from Chicago.
Speaker 2:But I was like can we like group up?
Speaker 1:at the legal pit, so that was the plan. And then, like at the legal pit, so that was a plan. And then, like, we stuck together but I didn't get to swing actually and I had to like extra tires. It was very disappointing. It was very disorganized at first, I'm not gonna lie, I was disappointed. And then, um, towards the end, more of the pros in the pit took over, so I just spectated. Um, some girls tried to go in and they kicked them out and that pissed me off because I was like, let these girls have a chance. But yeah, it was fun, I had a good time.
Speaker 2:Now, when they tried to go in, was they amateurs? Because that makes a difference. Like you go into a legal pit, you got to have your bars up. Oh, for real, you can't be out there on your, you can't be clowning on the pit. The legal pit is not amateur. Night at the Apollo, like most of them, niggas, trailer, they, cars or whatever spent a lot of money to get there. Right, they coming for the show, right? You know what I'm saying? So amateur hour, that that you gotta do that on your own time. So if they got bullied out the pit that mean they had they gotta get their balls up for two girls.
Speaker 1:They were for sure one of them was amateur in her scat and then the second girl had a scat but she was a little like in her shit. But they tried to do a tandem I guess she couldn't hold it down. She still needs some practice, so it was just fucking everything up. There was one girl I wish I knew her name or her Instagram, but she had a Camaro Bad ass female. She held that shit down, but at first they-.
Speaker 2:What color is the Camaro?
Speaker 1:It was a galaxy. Is it a galaxy color Hold?
Speaker 2:on, I'm finna. Call somebody right now. I think I know who you talking about.
Speaker 1:She's raw as hell. I was like no way. My brother's like, oh my God, it's a girl swinging. She was doing that shit, I promise you. And at first they bullied her out. I'm like what y'all doing? Like she trying to hold it down. Everybody was trying to like.
Speaker 2:And when was this?
Speaker 1:Back in, let me see, in May, if I'm not mistaken, may this past May.
Speaker 2:Hold on, I'm going to call because I think I know who you're talking about. Hold on, let me pull up her Instagram first.
Speaker 1:I'll probably recognize her if you show me a picture and I'll be like for sure that's her.
Speaker 2:I'm going to pull up right now. This is crazy. You say it's Galaxy Back in me. She might have changed it, I don't know.
Speaker 1:Like a purple, purple mirror yeah.
Speaker 2:You say a purple mirror, like a purple galaxy. Hold on, I don't think that was her.
Speaker 1:But she definitely not amateur.
Speaker 1:She was doing her shit. I was shook. I was like wow, but she was really the only female that held it down in the pit. And then all of a sudden, all the YouTubers like just started doing tandems and it went from two cars, three cars, four cars, it was like five cars. I'm like what the fuck is going on? There was so much going on at once. It was so fun. Honestly, it was blazing hot for show that day. Florida Heat fun honestly, it was blazing hot for show that day. Um, florida heat is no joke, no joke, no fucking joke. Like I was not prepared for that, never been to florida in my life, so that was. That was new for me. The environment I didn't know like all these people's cars were fucking up because of how hot it was.
Speaker 2:Talking to the mic, okay, but it was really hot that day a lot's cars were fucking up because of how hot, it was Talking to the mic, okay, but it was really hot that day.
Speaker 1:Not a lot of cars were turning off, so that's how you know.
Speaker 2:Nah, the girl I was thinking of wasn't there, so I need you to try to find out who she was.
Speaker 1:I'm going to find out. I think I was. Maybe I'm still in the group chat. I don't know the Florida group chat. That was a fun day. I got chased. I got chased in Florida. That shit was hilarious.
Speaker 2:You got chased in Florida.
Speaker 1:Hilarious I was.
Speaker 2:I was in a high speed.
Speaker 1:I was in a high speed. What were we doing? We were like, let's go. It was that same day they were trying to do a takeover. But I heard Florida don't fuck around when it comes to takeovers.
Speaker 2:Florida or Georgia.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was real hot. We were fucking around on the E-Way, we were just revving, and it was me and the I don't even know if I should say his name, but he has a joker charger I know you're talking about um, we're fucking around revving in the e-way.
Speaker 1:We're like all in a group and all of a sudden I see the the two cars behind me move to the side and and I see Fievel and I'm like fuck, he's going to turn on his lights. And of course I see them lights turn on and I'm like, fuck, this, I'm not stopping. So we ended up gunning it, me and him. We were right next to each other. He probably still got the footage, to be honest with you, but we were just gunning it, gunningning it, and it was like a straight shot. All the other people like ended up getting off the near exit because five wasn't. They didn't care about them. They're chasing us, cut the lights off literally in dark. Both of us we're just zooming down the e-way. It was late at night so thankfully traffic wasn't heavy.
Speaker 1:It was pretty light we were just cutting up, cutting up, and I'm like, fuck, I heard they don't play out here, so I'm just like you know what, I'm going to go straight to the B&B. I'm like fuck the takeover. Like we did all this. We met up and I was like nah, like I'm cool, I'm like I so just going straight shot.
Speaker 1:And then, until I got off, I had a pump gas, so I got off, or whatever. Um, at first, me and him, we thought that five will like cut the lights and just gave up. We're driving, we turn on the light like cool, whatever. All of a sudden you see the lights again and I'm like fuck, he's not stopping. I got it. I'm like fuck this. He ended up getting off and I just went straight. That's when I hopped off, got gas and I was like okay, it's time to go to bnb and I was like I'm done, like I'm not popping out. And then later on that day I heard that some people from out of state went to orlando. They took the drive out there and some got arrested and their car impounded and I was like fuck there were spiking cars out there and I was like oh yeah.
Speaker 2:Well, chicago spiking cars man.
Speaker 1:I heard that too. No, I don't want to find out. Yeah, I'm cool on that.

I was like it was a good time. Everybody was outside um, I was writing with some friends, so I had a good time. That was probably one of the best memories I've had, um, aside from like when fourth of july weekend happened and independence day. I think that was one of the most memorable takeovers you say 4th of July.
Speaker 2:4th of July which? That same year okay, so 2022 yeah so that whole like summer yeah, the Rackies had it busting 2022. I don't give a fuck between the Rackies had it busting in 2022.

Speaker 1:I don't even know how to stop any of that shit.
Speaker 2:No, not at all.
Speaker 1:That shit was going to like 4 in the morning. I think that one of those days either it was at Friday or Saturday I was out till like 5 in the morning. I was like holy shit, what am I doing? It's time to go home.
Speaker 2:Motherfuckers definitely be outside.
Speaker 3:Shit was crazy.
Speaker 1:It felt like Project X when all the chaos, like it's dawn and the sun is coming up and they're like holy shit, what happened? That's how I felt. Like it just felt like so unreal, like damn, we're out and about, we're out and about and stuff.
Speaker 2:So yeah, Like G that shit. I ain't gonna lie to you. Fourth of July weekend was definitely busting and Chicago versus everybody. What was your favorite memory at Chicago versus everybody? You could tell me, based off location, because I'd be able to tell you.
Speaker 1:Fort City, and I think Fort City is always a good time when you have a big-ass crowd like that, because it was just a lot going on at once. There were multiple cars, multiple swingers.
Speaker 2:Multiple picks.
Speaker 1:You had, you know, tandems going on as well. Um, who else did you had? Um, it was a couple out of state people that were doing their thing for sure.
Speaker 1:Shout out to morax and feast big red big red oh my god, like when seen him swinging and I didn't even know his car was manual until we spoke in person, because he asked me like oh, this, your whip? I'm like yeah. And he was like, oh, I got a manual, chadley. He's like it's a cat and I was like, oh shit. And so when I seen him like really swinging, I'm like, damn, like that's Chadley, you, you know manual and you're swinging your car like that.
Speaker 2:Them the best ones to swing, so Manual is the best way to go. They had brought that goddamn manual charger up here too. That was for Chicago versus everybody. They had had a Hellcat swapped manual charger that they brought up here with them. That bitch was nasty.
Speaker 1:Was it the Galaxy one? No, or was it the like the camouflage. It looked like a vape wrap. It was like blue.
Speaker 2:No, I know what you're talking about. Them was tri-state boys. Them was Philly that was Feast, and his crew with the Galaxy rap and the goddamn camouflage raps and all that shit. Them motherfuckers was putting on a show, though had a fucking ball. If I could relive any moment again in time, it would definitely be Chicago versus everybody.
Speaker 1:We were all over the news, like all about the takeover. We were on Chicago Times, like you know, all those pictures of the car swinging, like I was like, oh my god, like it's such a big deal and like everybody's talking about it like it was yeah, it was epic, it was, it was epic, it was active, it was a fucking time.
Speaker 2:It was epic, it was epic, it was active, it was a fucking time.
Speaker 1:It was better than Project X.
Speaker 2:No, for real, it was Project X of cars. Yep, for sure, for sure With cars. Yeah, probably one of my greatest experiences on the scene outside of hanging out at Poseidon's Cobb, my first time introducing the flower cone to the community. Would you swing? Do you want to swing?
Speaker 1:And if you would swing, I've tried it at Fort City. I gave it a try, but not actively, while somebody was like swinging, like I made my own little pay at Fort City one day and I was like, okay, I'm going to stay here because I don't want to get hit, I don't want my car to get hit. So I was like, let me just do my own little circle here. So I tried it and I remember my car was already tuned at the time and like tell me why some guy is recording right. And he's like stop your car, stop your car. And I smell something smoky. I was like the fuck, it smells weird, like did you turn your traction control off?
Speaker 2:yeah, you did my traction control was off.
Speaker 1:Um, I lowered the, so I wasn't on sport or anything, so I put it on 500. Because I had too much horsepower. Then your shit's just swaying.
Speaker 2:That might have been where you messed up. When you doing drift shit, you want to have the horsepower. You just got to know how to manage it, and that heel cat is very powerful, so I understand.
Speaker 1:So he was like your bottom of your car, your exhaust is glowing, and I was like what the fuck?
Speaker 2:So I got out of the car that shit was red, like orange red.
Speaker 1:And then somebody was like I thought you had LEDs under under your car. I'm like, no, like I didn't know. My shit was like like all red, so like I stopped. I was like, okay, I stopped. I texted my tuner, I sent him a video. I'm like this is happening. I'm like what is going on. And he was like um, you most likely have like clogged up um exhaust pipes all that smoke and stuff.
Speaker 1:So he was like you're going to, you still have the cats on Right and I was like, yeah. He was like, well, if you're going to try swinging all that, all those fumes like they need to air out, so he said you're going to have to go catless, so your car is going to be even louder. Oh, he was like it's either that or something like with your gas pump, like maybe something's leaking or something.
Speaker 2:I was like I don't think it's that.
Speaker 1:But I took it to my local muffler shop. They took the cats off and I didn't have the issue anymore. Like I tried swinging again and I didn't have that issue anymore. So I was like okay, cool, but that I really got the hang of it of swinging and holding the steering wheel, having all that shit steady, not going over the RPMs. No, I still need a lot of practice but I do want to get a hold of it. Hopefully in the future, maybe this summer, a little bit more practice, because I won't be living in the city for long, so I'm going to be off for college very soon and a university. So I want to kind of this will be my summer to really enjoy.
Speaker 2:How old are you?
Speaker 1:22. I turn 23 next month.
Speaker 2:Well, happy early birthday.
Speaker 1:Thank you.
Speaker 2:We lit.
Speaker 1:But for sure, I do want to keep learning, you know.
Speaker 2:So are you taking the cat with you when you go away to school?
Speaker 1:yes, I am you got security I don't plan to live on campus. I do um plan to rent and then go to school. So rent around the area, then go to school yeah, because I just I feel too old to live on campus. I'm like I feel too old, you know because a lot of people have been there since like they went straight out of high school.
Speaker 2:So it's just like um, but um.
Speaker 1:What were you saying?
Speaker 2:what made you? What made you want to go back to school?
Speaker 1:so I've always wanted to go back to school. So when going back to like when covid happened and I was at the um, like introducing to the car scene, um, I had the second year into COVID. I was still in school for like a solid three weeks and I dropped and I was like I can't do this. Like this whole online learning is not for me.
Speaker 1:I wasn't doing that way, and so I postponed it. And then I had time in my life. You know, I wasn't too focused in school. I was like, okay, let me enjoy this moment to party and do what I want to do. And um, then that happened with me and and the car situation. And then that postponed me because now I grew a disability with my arm and so it's hard for me to type. So I was like, okay, college is a lot of typing, and so I needed to go to the doctors get a doctor's note for accommodations. And I was like, okay, what do you want to do with your life? You need to level up this partying shit. We got to let it go Facts. And I was getting into that mental state where I wanted to change my life, you know. So I was like, ok, I think it's time to go back to school and really start striving for what the fuck I want. Like I want to get rid of my car at some point. Like I want something better. I want a foreign.
Speaker 2:What would you get next?
Speaker 1:I'm thinking of a Porsche. I am obsessed with Porsche right now.
Speaker 2:Okay, right now, right now.
Speaker 1:What was you obsessed with prior to the Porsche outside of the Hillcat? I don't think I was ever obsessed with anything besides Mopar Like.
Speaker 1:I was really into this whole Mopar thing. Like I wanted a corvette before the homo part thing, but the whole two-door thing, like the two-door thing with the camaro, was just not cutting it. I hated how tight that is. But now I'm looking into a two-door porsche and I'm just like no, we're going back to where we started. But it's a foreign though. But yeah, I do want that, but they're like $300,000, like that shit.
Speaker 2:Okay, so give me three cars that you would drive right now. That's not a Hellcat or a Camaro or a Porsche.
Speaker 1:Oh, you give me like a Lambo, so I'm definitely driving that shit. Definitely Anything exotic on that end. What else would I drive besides that? I don't know.
Speaker 2:You don't know.
Speaker 1:I mean, what else can I A Bentley? I've been in a Bentley but not driven one. But I'd drive that bitch For sure Bentley. So a Lambo, a Bentley, like I said anything About it.
Speaker 2:You, just, you, just, you just want the high end shit, you ain't. You ain't mention the old school or nothing.
Speaker 1:I'll drive an old school Shit. Pass me the keys.
Speaker 2:Cutlass or Monte Carlo, pass me a little low rider or something. Oh, you want an Impala.
Speaker 1:An Impala. Yeah, we could do an Impala 6.4 Impala. With the switches.
Speaker 2:Hitting the switches and shit.
Speaker 1:Teach me how and We'll get the hang of it.
Speaker 2:But yeah, I think those would be my top choices okay, we got so just so, just so we could let the record reflect. She said lambo bentley and a six fourala, teach her how to hit the switch and she'll figure the rest out. That's what's up. Is there anywhere that you want?
Speaker 1:to travel for the legal pitch scene.
Speaker 2:You've been to Florida, let me see.
Speaker 1:I mean I'd love to go back to Jacksonville because I know that's literally like the main spot. I know there's other states too, like Philly, do like legal pits. Correct me if I'm wrong, I know.

Speaker 2:Lumber.
Speaker 1:Yeah, lumber.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Bussing. Those are my favorite spots. I used to love parking, like when everybody would just meet up at Lawrence's. I'd like, get off, go get me some shrimp. I'm like, fuck it, let me go get, give me a shrimp. I'm high as hell right now because that's all I would do is just get high, sip a little and go get some food with the girls. I'm like, let's get off, let's go get some food. I'm hungry. Before we go to the next low before everybody parks up and blacks the streets.
Speaker 2:It'd be like your little bathroom break oh god, intermission, we'll be right back, type shit. Nah, that's real. So you kind of touched bases on this in the beginning, but, like, didn't really get into it. So you left the scene because you got shot, since they was trying to steal your heel cap. Yeah, do you recall the events of that night, like how you felt in that moment?
Speaker 1:yeah for sure. So we can kind of start from the beginning of that night. Um, earlier that day there was supposedly a takeover going on, but it was more of like a park and chill and people doing donuts. It was like at a target around here and so I was like, okay, it's kind of dead right now because it was still early, keep in mind, probably like 10 pm. So I was like it ain't gonna start popping till like probably 11, 30 or so. And one of my best friends called me because he's a musician. He's like hey, like you're trying to come to this party. Um, you know I'm gonna be playing that. I was like, yeah, fuck it. Like this, this meat is dead. So I was like I'm gonna go to this party. I had my brother at the time, I dropped him off and I'm like, okay, I'm going to this party, deuces right so I go to this party, fast forward.
Speaker 1:It's four in the morning and I'm crossfaded as fuck, like I was drinking so much that day and so I wasn't good to drive. But my best friend was a musician and I was like, let's go on a blunt cruise. I need a blunt to kind of calm my ass down. So I was like, all right, cool, anybody else want to go in the party? And they're like, nah, we good. So okay, cool, I'm familiar with everyone, everyone's cool. I've partied with them before. So me and my bestie he's driving the cat and like we're smoking or whatever. I had to go use a bathroom. This is where I fucked up and this is where I think everything like went down to shits. I stopped right there on roosevelt at the bp on the corner, that ghetto ass gas station. Rule number one everybody, please, please, avoid going to that BP. I'm probably the rookie one that didn't know for sure.
Speaker 2:But that's where that bitch like set up heaven.
Speaker 1:That's where the fuck I was at. So I was like I got to pee, so bad. And like I was like let me see if they got their bathroom open. They're like no, they're closed, Okay, whatever. So I fucking. We went to the alley and we took turns no, or they're closed, okay, whatever. So I fucking. We went to the alley and we took turns. We were looking out for each other like nobody's coming through or whatever.
Speaker 1:And then that's when we cruise around um mccormick place so we're around that area and we're at a red light and I'm fucked up, keep in mind and all of a sudden I feel somebody staring at me. Like you get that gut feeling that someone's looking at you and I immediately I knew it wasn't my best friend looking at me. I'm like there's no way.
Speaker 2:He's just staring at me, you instantly.
Speaker 1:I instantly felt that shit and I turned around instantly to my left and that's when I seen a blacked-out Charger and it had. There was an SRT and I could tell it was an SRT. You could just tell the difference Not everyone, but I could at the time what an SRT Jeep versus a regular, just V6 Jeep looks like.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:But it was all blacked out, no badges, no nothing. And he was blocking my car from behind at an angle and the charger next to my car was just right next to me and it was someone skied up and just pointing a gun out the window, just straight at our heads, and the window was cracked open. My best friend had the window cracked down because we were airing it all a bit but we didn't want to have the windows all the way down. It's cold as fuck, it's October. So I instantly just told my best friend, step on the gas, step on the gas. And he was like what? And he seemed that I just was like frozen and I was looking out the window. And that's when he turned around and seen the gun and he just gassed it Instantly. When he was pressing on the gas is when you just start hearing all the shots.
Speaker 1:And I remember counting the shots and I was scared and it was like everything was happening so fast but so slow, like yeah and it just felt unreal and he was like duck down, don't look up, and he's trying to control the car while ducking down, trying to navigate the car and the cars that are trying to jack us like they didn't. They didn't yell nothing, they didn't take the fuck out the car, nothing. I wish they did, because I'd give them the car in the heartbeat take, take the fucking car. I don't give a fuck, take it. But they didn't do that. They literally just pulled up and because we sped off, they just started blowing.
Speaker 1:I thought it was just that one person in the window We'll touch base on that later but they followed us for a good minute and then they ended up doing a u-turn and leaving and we ended up going on to um, another street and we're right next to like, like I said, we're around the mccormick area but we're right next to the building and, of course, 50 is always around mccormick area. So by the time I clicked on the emergency button on my iPhone, like 5-0 was already coming the one way and I remember that I was going to get the gun because, like I said, I do carry. And that's when I felt my hand just drop like heavy as fuck and I didn't feel any pain at first. I didn't know like I was like what the fuck? And I had a white T that day. All of a sudden you start seeing like my T just leaking. I'm leaking.
Speaker 2:Where did you get hit?
Speaker 1:My elbow.
Speaker 2:Your elbow, yeah, okay.
Speaker 1:So I got hit right where my like the funny bone is located. So you know, I'm in the ambulance, I'm calling my mom. My mom's not answering. I'm calling my grandma. She's not answering, like nobody's fucking answering me and I'm like, I feel like total shit.
Speaker 1:I'm like, bro, nobody's answering me I'm I'm panicking, like what is going on, but I kept telling myself that everything was gonna be okay, that I was gonna be okay, like I just knew that I wasn't gonna die, like I knew I was gonna fight through this. So, um, when I, you know, you get to the er, like they get you all naked or whatever they make, make sure you didn't get hit anywhere else. And then they did the x-rays and they were like we know, you're not lying about your pain. At that point I was already crying because of how painful my arm was, hurting, it was throbbing, my fingers were crooked. It looked like I was throwing gang signs and I laugh about it because to me I'm all about dark humor, that's the way I cope but they were like you know how long have your fingers been this way?
Speaker 1:And. I was like well, since I got shot my fingers just like that's how they were positioned and you know I was heavily like medicated with narcotics and I just remember just thinking like wow, like what's next? I didn't know with narcotics, and I just remember just thinking wow, what's next? I didn't know what was next and I was like my car it's all shot up. Come to find out that it was three people blowing at us because they caught it on camera.
Speaker 1:The cars were stolen, they were skied up, and then Chicago doesn't give a fuck.
Speaker 1:Trust me, they hardly solve anything hardly barely um, but yeah, so that happened never caught exactly who it was or nothing like that. But I'm a very spiritual person and I, I truly believe whatever what goes around comes around. Um, so that like always kept me going because I'm like I paint no business into whatever happens to them. Whatever happens to them happens to them and I'm cool, like I don't gotta know if, if they like I don't care if they catch them or not, because I know regardless, spiritually, I'm gonna get that leg back and you said it was a black SRT8 Jeep.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so it was a black blacked out SRT Jeep and a blacked out Charger.
Speaker 2:Was the Charger SRT2?.
Speaker 1:No, it didn't have no badges, so I couldn't tell it was a slim body. It was a slim body, no badges, but they were loud Because okay, so I'm on A Facebook group.
Speaker 2:That motherfucker Might have been debatched.
Speaker 1:Yeah, for sure, yeah, that shit was stolen and I can get that badge but.
Speaker 2:And the only reason I ask is because I end up wrecking my Maserati, being chased by Some Jack boys who tried to Rob me In a In a black SRT8 Jeep.
Speaker 1:When was this?
Speaker 2:Because I got shot in 2021, I believe, I think it was 2021 as well.
Speaker 1:Yeah, October 9th of 21,. I was shot.
Speaker 2:My shit happened in September.
Speaker 1:Yeah Of 21. I wouldn't find it a coincidence, to be honest, that is not the same.
Speaker 2:And it was crazy too, because I was going to the south suburbs. It was my 10-year high school anniversary picnic Well, not 10-year, but one of them numbers and everybody was getting together. It was our all-class high school picnic and I went to the picnic, left the picnic. Picnic was on the same day of my cousin's death day. Picnic was on the same day of my cousin's death day. So I left the picnic to go celebrate my cousin's life with my family and shit Left. From there I go home, take the gun home, because I'm going back to the south suburbs.
Speaker 2:I'm going back to go link up with my high school buddies because they going to a bar in the South suburbs. Motherfucking, take the gun home, get the motherfucking car driving the car, go stop and get a white t-shirt on 87th and uh, I think that's Dorchester. I'm on 87th and Dorchester at the gas station. But initially I'm coming up Stoney but I remembered like, oh shit, I need to get a t-shirt. So I know it's this gas station right here. So I bust a U-turn. They follow me. They bust a t-shirt. So I know it's this gas station right here. So I bust a u-turn. They follow me. They bust a u-turn so I blow the light on 87th and Stoney Island going back towards Dorchester. So I'm making that left because I'm going northbound at this point. Initially I was going southbound, going northbound, go to the gas, get the T-shirt out the gas station. They end up parking up at the McDonald's or something Like I leave.
Speaker 1:So they're scoping you out.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they trying to see what the fuck going on I leave. So they're scoping you out. Yeah, they trying to see what the fuck going on I leave. I go back to 87th and Stoney Island. Bust that right Now. When I bust that, right, I peep them Again I'm oh yeah, I know what time it is.
Speaker 1:You just feel it.
Speaker 2:I open that bitch up. I'm running every light on Stoney Island. Get to 95th and Stoney though the light just changed and this hella car Going through, so I can't run this light. Pull up to the light. I thought I left him, thought I lost them. They caught themselves trying to creep up behind me, not knowing that I didn't peep them already. They thinking I'm just fucking around. And motherfucker jumped out the back passenger seat and tried to creep up on my car from behind See him in the rear view and I just blow the light, take off. They chased me on the E-Way. They chased me all the way until I crashed and the only reason I crashed was because it was a goddamn Uber driver jumping from the middle lane at 111, trying to jump off the E-Way. You see this car flying at you. Why are you making dumb decisions like that? But that also goes to you having to drive for yourself and others.
Speaker 1:Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2:I was doing $1.60. I'm not supposed to be here Because when I'm talking about the way I hit that car, he was fine, he was able to drive off and everything my shit was fucked up. I couldn't do nothing. I still got the pictures in my phone. Shit, drive me crazy every time I think about it.
Speaker 1:That's crazy.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I had the Maserati Quadraporti.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:That's fucked up, man. It happened around the same time. Mine was October 9th, Yours was what September.
Speaker 2:Like September, either like 19th or the 22nd.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:For sure they had to be the same motherfuckers.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I promise you because they were on one, they were on a roll. I won't lie to you. And if I ever thought I had something personal with somebody, they're like you sure you don't got beef with nobody. I haven't beef with nobody. I barely know anybody. In the takeover scene, like you know, I kind of like retraced my steps so I was, like you know, I was at the car scene. Then I went to this party, but it's like a family friend party. I'm cool with everybody. It's not like just random house party where somebody could have targeted me from there and then I just go back to downtown and I mean I know there was a takeover earlier that day and you know they'd be out at night, so the striker boys are out too around that time and, um, you know, unfortunately that happened. I wasn't on my p's and q's because I was, like I said, crossfade as fuck. I'm rolling up, I'm smoking, like I don't even remember what happened to the blunt.
Speaker 1:To be honest with you, at the time, like I think about it to this day and I'm like, damn, what happened to the blunt we were smoking on? You know what I'm saying, but that was like the least of our worries at that moment, for sure um, but yeah.
Speaker 1:So unfortunately, like that happened, um, I had a bad experience. Um, I was at um Chicago Chicago Med, was it? Um, or you Chicago Med? But they, they sent me home that same day. They were like um, we'll schedule surgery a week from now and because you don't have the bullet in your elbow, so you'll be good, they fucking prescribed me four pills of morphine and said mix it up with with ibuprofen and they call it a day. If you have like any other symptoms, go to your local emergency room or come back here.
Speaker 1:But I don't live in the city, I live in the burbs. So I was like I'm just going to go to the nearest hospital near my house. So day, night, one like I slept through it. You know, I was like medicated on the morphine, I was good. And then the second night I ended up running out because there was like one morphine pill in the morning, one at night. And then they were like just do ibuprofen.
Speaker 1:And by the second night I ran out and ibuprofen was not cutting it. My arm was swelling even more and I was like this shit looks like my arm's getting affected. So I was like mom, like I need to go to the er. So my mom took me to the er and they were like we can't believe they sent you home. You should have gotten surgery instantly. Like you have a shattered, like your elbow is shattered, you have bone fragments just sitting in your inside the skin. So they were like and it's getting, it's like leading to an infection because it's just sitting there oh so they were like you're gonna get surgery in the morning.
Speaker 1:They were like, because I and they took me in like around 11 30 pm, that's when I couldn't sleep and I was like I gotta go to the hospital yeah and they were like you're going into surgery early in the morning.
Speaker 1:We're calling a surgeon. He's gonna be here like 8 am, okay, cool, so I'll go in. And they're like you're gonna, we're just gonna let you know you're gonna have um metal plate, so your elbow is gonna be connected to metal and then you're gonna have 18 screws going across 18 screws is crazy all over a car, all over a car.
Speaker 2:All over a car.
Speaker 1:All over a car.
Speaker 2:So not only is you the motherfucking first woman from the scene that was never like a swinger, none of that shit but you was the first woman on the scene with a heel kick, seen with a heel cat because most, most of the females I see is either some nigga kade driving or it's a scat or rt.
Speaker 2:I've seen some girls. I've seen a lot of women with rts. I haven't seen too many ladies with scats, let alone heel cats. Um, so big kudos to you, motherfucking, buckling down, working your ass off to get what you wanted and fuck them weak ass niggas that tried to take it from you.
Speaker 1:It's that simple so, um, fast forward. You know, doctors were telling me that you know, with physical therapy my arm was going to go back to quote unquote normal. There was nothing ever like. This is a possibility. But they were like you do have nerve damage but we're pretty sure it's going to heal within the year. But I wasn't too educated on how much time I had to heal.
Speaker 1:Like and if you didn't heal by this time, like there's no reversing, so I didn't know your nerves. They heal one inch a month and my nerve damage starts from my elbow all the way to my fingertips.
Speaker 1:That is not enough time to fully heal my arm. I was never told that. I got a second opinion by a surgeon because I was like I don't like the way my arm is. So what ended up happening with my arm is you have three nerves in your arms. All three of them and my arm are damaged, and it's up until my fingertips. So like one half of my arm is numb and then the rest is just tingly and semi numb. Tingly and semi numb and um, they, I have what's called a claw hand. It's a fucked up way to describe what I have, because it I was. I'm not gonna lie, it does look like a little claw hand or whatever, but whatever, um, so I do have that and it's it's owner, owner palsy. So it's just a condition where your nerves are never going to go back to normal. So what ends up happening is your arm gets skinnier and skinnier as the time goes, so you eventually have like a skeleton looking arm.
Speaker 2:Well like.
Speaker 1:Yeah, damn. So you know, and that was like something that you know, when they told me that and this was literally recently, this past, like august before, like when I was enrolling for school because I was like, if there's some type of surgery, like even my aunt was like I don't care how much it is like even with my physical therapy, I went to shirley ryan um physical therapy in downtown, which is one of like hands down, the best physical therapies in this world.
Speaker 1:and my aunt was, like I don't care, like you went to the best facility, like if there is anything I can do to help you feel better and be healthier, and like reconstruct your arm, I will do that if, like, you guys can't do it by yourselves. And so when I got that second opinion and this was one amazing surgeon, you know, I did a lot of research because I won I was looking for a second chance that there is that possibility I can look normal, because that was like one of my biggest insecurities. And so when he was like, unfortunately, I'm sorry, like there's nothing we can do for you.
Speaker 2:So. So because now you said, mentioned the claw here, I noticed you move these two fingers a lot yeah, so, like I said, half of my arm is like from here, yeah and then it goes like it's really skinny so I'll see you do this.
Speaker 1:There's no fat here, I'll see it so what ends up happening? Like your brain doesn't communicate to grow fat. Like even if I lift weights in this arm, I'm never going to gain muscle because the nerves are not connecting with your brain. Like grow muscle grow fat.
Speaker 2:See y'all done. Messed this girl up for life over a goddamn car. Stop trying to steal shit. You fucking Go work your ass off, too weirdos. It's an unfortunate event.
Speaker 1:I'm not going to lie, it didn't stop me from the scene Because obviously I still went. You know, this was even before Chicago vs. Everybody happened and I still went. I was just it took me a while to adjust to driving my car, my car was shot up.
Speaker 2:you know being comfortable and shit again. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Like they fixed it and for a minute I was like inside. But I was so eager, like I love my car. A lot of people are like it's your fault, you put yourself in that situation for getting that car. Like you should have never had that car in the first place, like you know what it brings and it's like no it's.
Speaker 2:it might be relative, so I ain't gonna say that I was gonna say fuck them in their opinion, because it shouldn't be that way. So I ain't going to say that I was going to say fuck them and their opinion it shouldn't be that way.
Speaker 1:I think that we should, like everyone that works hard for their stuff, should be able to enjoy what they worked hard for. But I think now it's just, people are crazy. It is what it is. There's crazy people out there and they'll do anything to take that joy out of somebody and they'll do anything to take that joy out of somebody and it's unfortunate. But it is one of the biggest experiences that has molded me.
Speaker 1:I think that experience really like I want to go back to school. It's time to like level up, it's time to get out this shit. Like you need to do something with your life. You don't have a lot of time, and I don't mean like just in a lifespan, but in a lifespan. But okay, like for me, I want to have kids and it's hard. Like my best friend has a baby and it's hard to carry her baby because my arm is weak as fuck. Like I had to stop working at FedEx. I was a package handler not a lot of girls can say they they can lift boxes like fast as fuck, coming down the belt and loading up trucks. Like sometimes I'd load a whole row of trucks at FedEx because it was so short-staffed. So when I got shot, you know like I was off work for a minute, um, and I was a veterinary assistant as well, so I was off work there, and then I end up coming up with my own business, which is like dog grooming and dog sitting, because I wasn't physically working at my jobs.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I couldn't, like my doctor said no working for three months straight. And then after that, like I made my little business and I still have that side hustle I just stopped working at FedEx, like I went for a little bit and then I stopped and then I just continued doing veterinary my side business, because that's what I'm familiar with, and then I ended up moving to Victoria's Secret, because my mom works at Victoria's Secret.
Speaker 2:OK.
Speaker 1:And she's big people, like she's very well known. So she got me in and she was like she always wanted me to work with her. But she's like you're going to get in, like you don't have to do all that extra shit, so I do that, but I still have my doggy business. So if anybody needs a little dog sitter, whatever, as long as your dog is good, not a badass.
Speaker 1:I am more than like happy to assist you guys. But yeah, that's a little bit about what happened. So now I do have a disability and it is gonna progressively get worse and I try not to let that stop me from anything. I think that it was something that was stopping me, even like, from dating. I was scared because I'm like I don't want nobody to hold my hand, like I'm not very self-conscious about everything.
Speaker 2:That's the thing. Women are very self-conscious about everything, like just like it took for you to say something for me to notice that you even had something going on with your hand after you've been shot. You know what I'm saying, because that's when I started paying attention, like I had a homegirl who me and her best friends been around each other a million times, a hundred million times. She got additional fingers growing on the side of her hand. I never noticed it until somebody pointed it out to me.
Speaker 1:Oh, my God, yeah.
Speaker 2:Never noticed it.
Speaker 1:I feel like I hide it so well. I feel like a lot of people that have been through, like or have any type of disability hide it very well.
Speaker 2:But she don't try to hide it.
Speaker 1:She be in your face, talking to you like this I feel like me, I be hiding my hand so much. I'm like oh, my God. And then when somebody's like, oh, like what happened, like you know I've had, like oh, what happened to your arm? Or unless I bring it up, they're like oh shit, I didn't even know.
Speaker 2:Like you can't even tell no, for real like and especially with men, because we pay attention to shit. But the shit, the shit that women be thinking niggas paying attention to, we not like it. Literally it wouldn't until you said that you had a call you had like a call that I noticed that in that moment. After that I started noticing that you were using these two fingers. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Prior to that I never paid it, no mind yeah, so that's what it is and that's how it's gonna be, but I guess but you thugging it out like I think it's like I, I call myself a warrior. I'm like my warriors, like the badass like. I'm the badass like who gets shot for their car. I got shot for my car that's how you know my shit, fire my shit is fire For real.
Speaker 2:Got shot for your car and still got your car.
Speaker 1:I still got my car.
Speaker 2:Fuck them with your ass, niggas.
Speaker 1:So I still got it. You know, what belongs to me Stays to me. You know Like. No facts it won't be removed From my life. So I find that, like my car Was always meant for me.
Speaker 1:Even when I first bought it Actually, actually a back story with my car. A girl from out of state was going to buy the car. She lied on her application, the bank loan application. They denied it. They called me because I was already interested until they told me it was like a pending sale. They're like her application got denied and she literally came out of state for nothing for them to tell her no bank was going to loan her because she lied about her income on the bank statement or whatever. And they were like you're trying to come get it on monday because this was on the weekend. I'm like fuck yeah. So from there, even then thinking about it after I got shot, I was like my car was always man for me, it was for me and nothing's gonna take it away from me unless I remove that car out of my life.
Speaker 1:Which you know that's the plan in the future. Now, right now, because I'm not in the financial situation that I want to be in to move to the next step, to the car that I really want. So of course I'm going to keep my car. It holds a lot of value.
Speaker 2:Holds a lot of value and a lot of people don't know that. I'm glad you brought that up.
Speaker 1:I'm proud of my car. I'm proud of how far we've come. After that I tuned it. After that whole situation down that was in October and then in April is when I tuned my car with Saterra. I was so proud. I was like this is mine, this is my car, this is my project. This is what I dreamed of for so long and I have it. So I do enjoy my, my, my baby girl, my big purr um your big purr.
Speaker 2:That's what I call it.
Speaker 1:That's always I've always named my car big purr because that was my song when I had my camaro. I have a video where I'm like recording myself and she's the girl in the song. She's like my big purr and I'm like yo that's my big purr, like that's gonna be my car. And when I got it I'm like yo, that's her, that's her nickname.
Speaker 2:That's her nickname big purr, big purr she big purring, she do big purring.
Speaker 1:That's definitely a big purr, though that shit is so loud, I ain't going to lie.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I want to touch bases on the fact that you said Hellcats specifically Hold value. A lot of motherfuckers don't realize the value that they hold.
Speaker 1:Oh my god, I know I'm like oh, you guys are beating the car up. It has so much potential. Honestly, it does Like whether you sell it yourself or at a dealer, I mean, the more you beat it up, the less value it's going to have. You know what I'm saying. But regardless, even because they're not making these cars no more, it's always going to be up there Like you could definitely put a price on it.
Speaker 2:But you could still look, you could be the piss out this motherfucker right. Buy another motor because they still selling the motor. You know what I'm saying. You could buy the motor. You know what I'm saying. You can buy another motor, put another motor in it, motherfucking, and make that bitch like brand new again. New motor, new trans? Ain't nobody got to know? Ain't nobody got to know. These cars are made to be beat on. I feel you. They ain't making muscle cars for them not to be beat on.
Speaker 1:For sure.
Speaker 2:You know what I'm saying? I?
Speaker 1:balance my beating up. I balance it. I'll beat her up sometimes and then I'm like, all right, cool, she got to stay in the garage for a little bit. But there are people that like every single weekend I'm beating the shit out of my SRT. I'm like, okay, well.
Speaker 2:Oh, my homie Kudos to you. Shout out to all my homies that's beating the piss out. They cause SRTs, the Vs, all that shit.
Speaker 1:All for the gram Props to YouTube as well.
Speaker 2:Not even for the gram. They do that shit for the adrenaline rush. It feels good. Yeah, you know it.
Speaker 1:I've been in two people's cars while they were swinging at Ford City and I was like man. This feels so good, like the adrenaline.
Speaker 2:The adrenaline is different, like the first and last time I hung out of a window while somebody else was driving. Let me make that clear, because I used to hang out with my own car window driving my truck. I had a 97 Suburban extended cab 20 back then. It's like 2007, 2008. Motherfucking 20. I had some 23-inch motherfucking 20. I had some 23 inch motherfucking summer on them with the motherfucking vortex turbo charge on the motherfucker the the motor in them. Back then. I think the motors was the. I think the motors was the same motors as the goddamn Monte Carlos and shit. Back then A 3,800 series00 series or something crazy.
Speaker 2:I don't remember, but that big motherfucker used to get busy and I used to hang my big ass out the window and swing that bitch down South Chicago, okay. But yeah, I hung out at Poseidon's car and everything was fine until he took that bitch counterclockwise. I don't know what it is about the inertia of going the opposite direction. Yeah, because, man, if you don't position yourself properly, it's just an uncomfortable feeling. But at the time my daughter is six now. At the time my daughter was four or five and I showed her the video of me hanging out the car with the flowers in the middle of the pit and thinking like it's a cool moment you know what I'm saying Like showing my kid, like, look what your daddy did, I'm passionate right now, look at me. And my kid was like Daddy, are you crazy? Don't you do that ever?
Speaker 1:again Aw, she cares for your safety.
Speaker 2:And since then I haven't hung out of a window.
Speaker 1:Okay, respect. Listen to your daughter. No, for shit show. For shit show. Respect, listen to your daughter. No, daughter knows best For sure.
Speaker 2:Hey, one thing I'm a firm believer of kids, especially younger kids. They have an insight on life that we don't. Yeah, because they still have their innocence and shit. They can tap in and talk to sources of higher powers that we cannot.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I truly believe that.
Speaker 2:So my daughter knew something I didn't know, and from that moment I ain't been in another car window, that's good. She told me don't, I can't do it Everybody be talking about be my window whore. No Coco overrides everybody's thoughts and opinions.
Speaker 1:Aw, that's good. She's your little guardian angel. She's keeping you centered and focused. Sometimes that's what our kids do. I don't have kids personally, but I feel like sometimes kids are placed in your life to straighten you out in a good way Both my daughters saved me from the streets.
Speaker 2:my oldest daughter she made me like remove myself from, like being on some hot head gang banging shit. And then my youngest daughter, like really made me like stop everything and go legit, like fuck it.
Speaker 1:That's good. I give you props because not a lot of people, not a lot of dads, are like that. You know, Like, just because they got kids, they're going to strain themselves out. Sometimes they don't give a fuck about them kids. They fuck them kids, you know Like don't care if that's their blood. Like they continue to do what they want to do, versus like doing things always thinking about their kids. Like their kids are always gonna be behind their their head.
Speaker 2:Like yeah, my, what's crazy? My, my kids are the reason I work as hard as I do. I feel like they might not appreciate it now because they don't see me as much as they would like to because I'm always working, but by the time the mission is complete, I'm going to sacrifice that time. For us to have unlimited time that's the goal in this shit, because people, not people, the rich and the wealthy, they don't. They don't signify their wealth by the amount of money they got, but how much time they have. I can hire you, you, you and you and you and you, to do everything I used to do in one day. Now y'all do this for me I could go take my kids on vacation. Right, you know what I'm saying and I think that's yeah, that's the goal.
Speaker 1:Yeah, time is very limited. You never know Tomorrow's never promised your kids. You know. You just never know when you're not going to be here or your loved ones. So I think every moment you should cherish it, good or bad.
Speaker 2:For sure, firm belief in that, but also I don't believe in living in fear For sure.
Speaker 2:I do agree. If I was to live in fear Of the fact that I might not be here and making the sacrifices that I'm making as far as time goes now, I may never reach the goal I'm trying to reach. You know what I'm saying? Because I will be living in the fear that I might not be here tomorrow. So let me spend as much time as I can with them and I'm like, if I die tomorrow I'm going to be okay because my kids know I love them.
Speaker 1:And you're doing everything in your power. Yeah, to change our lives forever kudos thank you that moment you should be proud of yourself.
Speaker 2:I know your kids are so man, is there anything you want to say to the community before we man Is?
Speaker 1:there anything you want to say to the community before we roll out of here.
Speaker 1:Let's see what should we say Everybody can continue doing what they want to do. You know, keep the meets going and things like that. Just be a little safer. I think. Just keep the guns down and just be careful. Like, leave all that beef shit outside the car community. The car community was never like that, it was always just strictly car. So I think we should continue that tradition as best as we can.
Speaker 1:Um, because it once was like a moment for me and a lot of people that don't, you know, go to the takeovers anymore. It was like a time of our lives during the weekend, something that we all looked forward to because we were all safe and secure around the people you know we were surrounding ourselves with. But, um, I hope to see that there is a change, more control. So any new hosts like, hey, try to hold that shit down because, man, recently it hasn't been all that, I'll tell. See that there is a change, more control. So any new hosts like, hey, try to hold that shit down because, man, recently it hasn't been all that. I'll tell you that. I'm sorry, but if any of the OG hosts come back and host a big meet this upcoming summer, best believe, if I get my skills going, I'm hopping in the pit oh.
Speaker 1:God, I'm hopping in the pit. I'll do my best. I'm not in the pit, oh God. I'm hopping in the pit. I'll do my best. I'm not going to be perfect and I'm not going to call myself queen of the pit or the best in the pit. I know that's like a big topic, like who's better than, but to me that don't matter. I think just do what you can, have fun and, you know, enjoy the moment.
Speaker 2:Okay, I like that. I like moment. Okay, I like that. I like that. Well, it's your boy. The hood floors and this is the rollback show and we rolling out. Go on here, shout out your instagram where they can find you everyone can follow me and my name is l-c-e-o-s-y-x.
Speaker 1:Alize a-l-i-zE-Y. Hope to make some more podcasts with you.
Speaker 2:For sure, you definitely welcome back. Thank you huh say, what's the dilly? Yo tuning in to the motherfucking rollback show gang going on.
Speaker 3:I'm about to embarrass myself on here already just cut it out.
Speaker 2:Cut it out from indiana to louisiana. How'd that happen?
Speaker 3:um, you want me to be honest? Yeah, well, I had, you know, met a person and then I ended up here, and so you know this is my home. Now you know I'm down here doing my thing, you know, just clean, making a name for myself. So I'm here. But you know, indiana it'll making a name for myself. So I'm here, but you know, indiana, it'll always be my home. That's always home. That's where I started off sliding, that's always going to be my first love.
Speaker 2:you know, that's what's up.
Speaker 3:So you originally from Indiana, yep, born and raised, lived there my whole life. What's up? So you, originally from Indiana, Yep, born and raised, lived there my whole life.
Speaker 2:Okay, it's the first time I've ever lived out of state.
Speaker 3:Is that where you found your love for cars? Yes, when I was in high school, I had a big Tahoe. It had chrome rims on everything. You know there was sliding was going on back then and really, like we was young so we couldn't really get in the club. So when people start, you know, coming out and sliding their cars and doing all this stuff in the streets, we like, you know this is a new thing, this is the hype like this is actually better than the club.
Speaker 3:So I used to like follow all the cars and I actually blew my engine in my tahoe trying to keep up with everybody else. Like I'm like, like this is cool. Um, I'm like, but I like I gotta get my own car. So my grandma she had got a 2014 um ss drop top pretty red camaro. I'm like, dang, I gotta check that out. I had no like intentions of sliding me to me because that's grandma car and she got a handicap license plate. I can't do grandma car like that. So, um, she let me, you know, take it out to this little parking too and stuff. And you, you know, I pull up. I'm a female in a Camaro looking good. Everybody like slide that motherfucker. I'm like what he said slide that motherfucker. I'm like I don't know how to do that. Well, do a burnout. I don't know how to do that either, so they showed me how to do it. I I'm like I'm about to be in trouble when I go home, but fuck it so.
Speaker 3:I'm like I would. I didn't want to go home, I was scared to go home, but like I literally just like I wasn't. Really, when I first started I wasn't doing like full circles, you know, I was just doing a little something, something, something, but like it was getting the people hype. I'm a female in a camaro, like doing my thing, and so like every time my grandma would let me borrow the camaro, I make sure I had a fresh pair of tires to put on there before I take the car back. And that's really like. That's really how I got into flying. Like when I started off I didn't even start in my own car, like I ain't a't afford no Camaro, but the shit looked cool. So that's how I started and then I eventually bought my own. I flew to Texas and drove an SS back that I had bought, and after that that's just how I started getting deeper into the car scene.
Speaker 2:That's what's up. So I got a question for you because you said you're sliding in high school. How old are you?
Speaker 3:How old am I? Yeah, 27.
Speaker 2:Okay, so you.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I've been doing it for, yeah, quite a while.
Speaker 2:And the only reason I ask? Because in Chicago, like we didn't niggas was burning rubber and some niggas, if they had some shit powerful enough to swing that bitch, they'll swing it right quick, show out, yank off. But in high school we had more like our was like parking chill vibes, but niggas was showing off their car, speedball and doing all type of shit burning out. We had some shit called south chicago in high school.
Speaker 3:So, um, we didn't really have yeah, when I, when I was in high school, um I didn't really I didn't really hear much about like sliding and stuff going in other states it was. It was definitely like the you know the car shows, um more of that. Um, I didn't really hear about it in any other states. So probably, like, honestly, probably after I graduated high school, then it just I don't know it just like sliding just started to like spread like a wildfire.
Speaker 2:It was like the new thing, like it's so crazy yeah, I mean she had the motherfucking takeovers originated in the fucking 80s.
Speaker 3:So yeah, yeah, yeah, the people, um, I used to see, you know, because when the police started to crack down a lot, you know a lot of people were saying and posting stuff like, well, look, you know, back in the 80s started to crack down a lot, you know a lot of people were saying and posting stuff like, well, look, you know, back in the 80s they used to do this stuff all the time and you know the police, you know, didn't used to bother them and stuff and then, but you know it's a different generation now, it's a different crowd, you know.
Speaker 3:You know, I'm sure the police, they feel intimidated, they don't want us to have fun. But again, like sliding and I get it, like you know it's dangerous and stuff, especially with the streets, but like it really do keep like a lot of people out of trouble, like I know, like sliding has saved like a couple people I know lives, like from you know, being in jail and stuff like that. Like you know it's a movement, you know it's therapy for some people, it's a, it's a getaway. Keep them out this, you know, out the illegal stuff.
Speaker 2:you know, to an extent it's just honestly, it's a different type of thing no, it is because, like it's, it's turning um, not more, not a lot of these motherfuckers is coming into the scene, not for the love of cars, but the clout.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:That's what's changing the scene.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I will say that, especially from when I first started. It's definitely different now, don't get me wrong. It's competitive, it's a sport, just like football, basketball. Driving is a sport. We call it sliding, but technically it is drifting because we are drifting our cars. We're just not on a figure eight track or a circuit track you know doing it, but we are drifting or a circuit track you know doing it, but we are drifting.
Speaker 3:But you do have a lot of people that one, you know, they, you know, abuse the scene or everybody you know, argues and different stuff like that and brings unnecessary drama, and I do feel like the love of the scene isn't the same. Like me, you know, I have my 2018 SS Camaro and I have my V6 Camaro. I specifically bought my V6 Camaro for me to slide it and to turn it into a drift car. For me it's a legacy. If I have kids, I can pass that down or my family. I grew up handing my grandpa tools to build his car. He used to drag race and, um, he was a racer. He wasn't anything.
Speaker 2:You know what's crazy you want not to cut you off. You know what's crazy no, you're fine you are the second woman that I have interviewed that said that they was motherfucking, getting their hands dirty with either a father or a grandfather. Like no, no, you're the third. The third, that's shit crazy. So shout out to y'all peoples, man, because, because, because, that's dope as fuck yeah, it's a, it's a, it's a story, but it's a story.
Speaker 3:I have a story and I know other people, you know, that really truly have a love for cars, like I will, will go to. I don't mind going to parking show or coffee person coffee, because then people out there you see, like so literally it's blood, sweat and tears into your car that people have put in these cars. You know what I'm saying. I don't have my cars just to pull it out and dog it out and get bragging rights. No, my rap on my car, the parts on my car I have spent money on that I have. I have cried tears, you know, because it is expensive. You know, sometimes you, you, you go broke, you know, you go broke doing that stuff, you know. But you know, at the end of the day it'd be worth it. But, like I said, I, I grew up, I grew up when I was little I was in a barn with my grandpa helping him, you know, with stuff, with his cars. You know, saying so it's, it means it means a lot, a lot to me. So yeah, you know, sometimes tiredly expensive, but but it'd be, it'd be worth it.
Speaker 3:You know, like I said, just some people, you know sadly, have kind of ruined the scene. You know sometimes it don't be fun. You know sadly have kind of ruined the scene. You know sometimes it don't be fun. To be honest, the most fun that I've probably had lately since I've been out, I'm going to give a big shout out to parking lot Houston pit. Every time I go there it is like nothing but love, Like the scene is mad, different. Everybody's just having fun enjoying their cars. You know what I'm saying. I've enjoyed the legal pit scene a little more lately than the streets Because, like I said, the streets ain't the same. It's a lot of fake love. You know you got people that want all this support but they don't give it back. You know you got a lot of that. You got to excuse my language. You got a lot of dick riding out here. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:Man, we grown Ain't.
Speaker 3:No excuse your language Talk how you want to talk, god damn it. You know me, being a female is different because you know you surrounded by a bunch of testosterone, a bunch of niggas sliding their cars. They already hyped up, they already talking shit, they already popping in. It's a lot of good sliders out here. That's what also got me into the scene. A female did not get me to slide into sliding, it's the dudes out here. That's why I'm like damn, like they really is cutting up. You know I'm saying, and now like sometimes I'm like now they acting like a bunch of bitches. You know I'm saying, but you know so it do be hard being a female in a male dominated sport.
Speaker 2:You do have other female sliders you literally like walking into my next question. I was just about to ask you what is it like being a woman in a male dominated sport? What are the pros and what are the cons?
Speaker 3:I will say the pros is it sets you apart from everybody else. Because I'm going to be honest, if I go to events or I pop outside, I don't care if the best slaughter in the world is outside. Guess where their eyes is about to be when I pull up Me, because, one, I'm a female and I got a B6. So people already think like, oh, you know that B6 ain't about to be when I pull up me, because, one, I'm a female and I gotta be sick. So people already think like, oh, you know that be sick ain't about to do nothing, it's just a little, you know you ain't about to do nothing. And I, and when I get out there and I pop my shit and sometimes people don't know I'm a female in the car they can't really see. But when I get out the car for people that don't know who I am, they're like oh shit, that's a fucking female, like she's flying better than these niggas. You know what I'm saying. Other, like other females coming up to me, like sometimes I don't even know, like I'm just like thank you. Like I get a little shy because, like I'm like dang, like they, like they love this shit, like they love what I do like you know what I'm saying, like it makes you feel good inside. It don't matter if you spent just spent 200 on tires. Like that shit is like real love. You know what I'm saying. Sometimes, I'm not gonna lie it can be intimidating. I'll be sitting like I was at Houston Pit. You know, all these dudes is going at it and I'm like dang, like that's how I'm trying to be, and sliding. And sliding is a big mental. It's a big mental thing. But once you get out that mental block you could really make your car do whatever you want it to do. But when I see them out there, it turned me up because I want to be just like them. It's females.
Speaker 3:I give a shout out to D1 Moore. She be out there on the drift track. She be swinging that CTSD Like she. She hands down mad respect like I really look up to her because that's my goal to be on the track and literally drive like her, like she holds her own, like she don't care if she's in a with a bunch of niggas. She gonna get in that pit. She gonna let them know. Hey, I'm a bitch, but I know what the fuck I'm doing with this wheel and that's how I, you know, I try to be in, how I try to conduct myself. You know what I'm saying, cause, just like y'all out there doing it, I can do it too, and I'm, and I'm gonna show y'all that.
Speaker 3:Um, you know, you got some females in the car scene. Uh, there are a lot of female fighters. They're a Lola bunny, I love her. Um, we, they're Lola Bunny, I love her. We got Yo-Yo with the V6. She be swinging that motherfucker. It's other females in the car scene. I have a lot of respect for. There's a lot that I haven't met yet, that I would love to meet. But yeah, it's a different world being a woman. You definitely got all eyes on you and just steal the show. Let them know.
Speaker 3:Like I'm out here, just like y'all are, and I'm just going to be honest. Like I'm on a different wave with these cars From my SS, which I race, is down right now, but I have hit the track and stuff a couple times To my V6, I don't just bring my cars out, I turn them into something, I wrap them, I'm building them, I'm doing all this stuff. So I'm not just a as a female, like I'm not gonna lie, I've got, hey, I pulled up to a gas station one time. A nigga with a Hellcat swap oh, is that supposed to be? I had my asses. Oh, is that supposed to be the Hellcat killer? I said yes, oh, is that supposed to be the Hellcat killer? I said yes, it is.
Speaker 3:He said, well, I'm over here pushing. He said I'm pushing. He said like 600 to 600 or blah, blah, blah. I said well, your shit slow, so you can quit talking. You know you want to put these cars on the street. We can see what it do. He's like nah, nah, he got mad because I put up, started revving my engine. No, I have a built, I have a built car over here. This ain't no built, not bought, built, not bought and it's. I'm sorry, but I don't care if somebody get butt hurt, but this ain't no, this ain't no striker swap engine, this is a built engine. That's what this is. So, yeah, I talk, I talk my shit, because sometimes it do be niggas that need to be broken down a little bit because they be thinking you know this and that. So, yeah, I get a lot of love, but I'm not going to lie, I've got. I've got hate in the car scene as well, I've experienced both sides. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's a lot of love and a lot of hate, but haters make us greater. I got a question for you, though Give me your top three swingers, and you can't include yourself, because it's solely top three, okay, well, here's one.
Speaker 3:He's not here, no more.
Speaker 2:Top three.
Speaker 3:Okay, well, it's one. He's not here, no more. He did pass away, but it's the reason I got that big five on my B6. I'm going to give it number one to Ty. That's always going to be my number one swinging person. He's the only reason I even know how to do a figure eight person. He the only reason I even know how to do a figure eight. If he like, if he was here today. Ain't nobody that I have seen can out swing that man. That man could do some crazy things with a car that I ain't never seen nobody on this earth do. So I'm gonna give that to him. I'm gonna give. I'm gonna have to say Mo Racks, I haven't been able to see him fight in person, but from the build of his car to the way he drives that car, I'm gonna have to give him a gold medal on that.
Speaker 2:Hey, no bullshit after seeing him dog the shit, gold medal on that, hey, no bullshit. After seeing him dog the shit out of his car, break his car, dog it again, break it, fix it, dog it again, and fix it again. And one day, yeah, folks deserve every award that he's given exactly that's the goat.
Speaker 3:Yeah, folks deserve every award that he's given. Exactly, yeah, that's the GOAT. And he, like you could tell, like he humble, but he's a respected person Because, don't get me wrong, there's good, there's great, there's good sliders, but I don't, they're not all respected. If that makes sense, you get what I'm saying. But that dude right there, a lot of respect goes out to him. Like I follow him and I'm like dang, like I've even asked him.
Speaker 3:You know questions about, you know certain things about my car and just different video footage, different stuff you know, and I respect that he's. He's responded to me and you know he gave me a lot of pointers and certain things. So, like a lot of respect. You know what I'm saying to that Sometimes you'll be in somebody and they act like I get, like you can't respond to it. But some people, some people just act like they Beyonce or Chris Brown, you know they too good to you. Know what I'm saying. He don't come off as that type of person. So that's why I I will name for sure okay, and your third my third one, who?
Speaker 3:this is tough. Ah, there's so many. Um, I'm gonna have to, I'm gonna have to give it. I'm going to have to give it to my boy, edwin. He's a five star here. He in a truck.

It ain't going to have the same flavor. You right, it's just. It's just one of them things. Um if there was any message you would want to leave the scene, what would it be?
Speaker 3:Um, I would say like, just um, everybody, just like take care of one another, cause you know we could be here, you know, today and gone tomorrow, and you know we have lost a lot of people. In the car scene there there's a, there's some people. You know that at the end of the night, you know we have lost a lot of people. In the car scene there's some people. You know that at the end of the night, you know everybody don't get to make it home. So I just I would like to see like a lot more love and support in the scene Because, like I said, it really it's a legacy. Um, in the scene because, like I said, it really it's a legacy. Like I know when, when I die, this, this part of me, is gonna live forever. Like I told my you know my mom don't want to hear, but I told my family, like you know, when I go, I want y'all to turn the streets up. I don't care if you gotta my mama gotta drive my car. Somebody I trust gotta slide that motherfucker. That's what you know I was doing when I was here, like keep my spirits up. You know what I'm saying. So, like I said, I just want the car scene to stay alive. I don't want the police to keep messing with us. You know they already think you know bad of us and stuff. You know it's starting to change a little bit of us and stuff. You know it's starting to change a little bit but you know it might get better over time. We might see more illegal pits in every state. You know, you never know. So, just like I said, everybody, like everybody, stay safe out there, take care of each other, support one another. You know, and that's basically what I'd like to leave out there and I want to thank everybody like that, truly like supports me, like, like I don't have no sponsors.
Speaker 3:You know what I'm saying. I pay for a lot of stuff out of pocket. You know what I'm saying. But but the love that I get from people, that's what. That's what really, if I'm going to be honest, that's what pays for everything. I really do it out of the love that I get from my family, my friends, from people that I don't even know. Like.
Speaker 3:I went to the airport and worked for, you know, a girl came up to me. Oh my God, are you crazy, sis? And I said who? Me, she, they worked for and you know, a girl came up to me oh my god, are you crazy this? And I said who me? She said, yeah, you. I said, oh, uh, yeah, that's me. She's like, oh my god, I love you. And I'm like, oh my god, and I'm like, thank you y'all.
Speaker 3:Like I really appreciate like stuff like that, like I don't know, like that warms my heart, like so, like you know, I say I just want to see that love like keep you know going around and for everybody, even even for the kids. Like I bought my little Lisa a little power wheel Camaro. She, she be trying to drive it in the house, like she does not want to get out of that thing. Like the kids love it. You know, everybody, a lot of people, a lot of people look up to us. You know, in the car scene, um, you know in the car scene, just like we look up to you know, just like you know, do like Ken Block, all this stuff. You know it's just it really like is a special, like thing. You know what I'm saying. So I want to see it, you know, stay alive for a long time, even when we not here, no more. Just keep it alive and do it right. You know what I'm saying. Do it right.
Speaker 2:You know what I'm saying? Do it right. I mean shit. This motherfucking thing been going for 50 years. I don't see it dying no time soon. Yeah, even with all the bullshit, like motherfuckers just gonna you know what I'm saying Make it motherfuckers just gonna make it. Figure out new ways to keep the scene alive. Like the more they try to kill it, the harder motherfuckers fight to keep it alive. That's just the way it is exactly.
Speaker 3:You know I haven't one thing I really do miss. I do miss giving back to the community, which I am going to actually start doing. That like feeding the homeless. You know different.

You know, just give back, give back to the community. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3:That's why, again, like, why I like going to different stuff, like cars and coffees and stuff, because, like um, it really, it really is a, it's a family within the car scene. It really is Um, it has a, it has a lot. It has a lot more to offer than just drifting your car. There's more to it than that and that's why I'm so, I'm so deep into it and why I'm so in love with it, because it's so much more it is. I'm very passionate about what I do. I definitely. You know I work a lot, especially right now, but you know I do take my cars and the car scene. You know, very seriously it is fun, but it's also, you know, a getaway for me and it's a healing thing for me.
