Ian you’re really a great interviewer bro. Perfect mix of good questions but mostly just letting people talk. Your talk show host instincts are super solid.
Our "justice" system is a joke. I was a cop for a very long time. He was sentenced to 40 years for dealing crack, yet people that are drunk driving, cause an accident and kill someone, they get 4 years...Freaking joke
I agree brother: No friking hi five on 40 years. You’ve done awesome. From poverty and prison to having a good heart and a sound mind. Solid logic, goodwill towards others… Heartwarming to watch
Ian with another banger. I love how the prison RUclips genre continues to grow and continues to be transparent to help others. It’s a pleasure to follow you both. Keep on grinding Bick!
Big Chads Blood On The Razor Wire, one of the best if not the best Fed Prison Channel hands down.💯 I was at Big Sandy with Chad and his stories are 💯 real. I recommend his book. Definitely a page turner. Great interview Ian. Much respect 🤜🏼🤛🏼
What an eloquent and passionate guy - AND he is honest - his time in prison may have made him who he is today but he realizes what damage he did and what damage it did to him. I really heard the honesty when in the catch in his voice when he describes the damage he did. No self-glorification.
Chad's book is well worth buying to read, it's real and raw, gives you a great insight into how Chad turned his life around 180,all them years in the prison law library paid off, he got himself set free, and has won many other prisoners case's, and today, they are all free, thanks to all the hard work Chad has done, thank you for your kind words about Chad, BOTRW TV FAMILY LOVE AND RESPECT, 💯💯💯💯💯
@@richarddowling912 not to mention a great narrator, even if the way he says documentary & elementary drives me crazy lol. But him saying it makes me giggle instead of being annoyed now (know a dude from Buffalo who says those words the same way & it always annoyed me, guess its just a regional thing🤷♀️)
I've watched Chad's channel before I followed Ian Bick but this is such a great interview. Really feels like you get to know Chad and get a glimpse of how his life went. Chad's an inspiration, I love the way he he is about on accepting your fate and fighting for what's good at the same time. Thank you guys.
I’ve watched almost all of Chads interviews and this one is my favourite one. Ian has skills as a journalist he got a lot more out of chad then any other video I’ve seen. I’m a huge fan of blood on the razor wire tv. Respect Chad for giving us more on your life story and thanks Ian for doing what u do!
I also served 19 years in federal prison. In 2020 I filed a compassionate release. I won and an order was issued to release me within 10 days. I was to be home by my birthday January 16. We were on covid lock down at the time so we only got the phone once a week. I couldn't sleep counting down the days. On my birthday I didn't understand why I was still there, I'm at the door asking whats going on. When I called my mother that day she was crying, telling me the prosecutor appealed because of a knife case I caught at usp Florence that added time to my sentence but was never brought up in my compassionate release. The government won their appeal, but I was still released to halfway house on July 31st 2021 after sitting another 7 months.
FUCK man....of course I feel for you,but we man up and deal with that shit,as much as it does suck. It's your Mom I truly feel for man,I'm sorry....BUT HEY you're still out NOW so right on
Amazing interview. Great job as always w/Chad. He is the REAL deal no doubt about it. And Ian does a great freaking job with his follow up questions. In particular the psychology aspects of every detail oriented question. These guys were born to do this
Aloha, I read Chads book. It’s excellent. The constant hyper vigilance, anxiety, etc seems to be similarly eerie to my feelings during combat in 🇦🇫 . Best of luck
Ian I love this internet. I’m only 15 minutes south of Rochester, NY. That City was and still is a very dangerous city. Only place I go to is Blue Cross Arena for WWE shows. Man I so glad Blood On The Wire got out and changed. Awesome interview Ian
I can watch these interviews all night long. I take there love to bed and give God the praise and tell him how grateful I am I wasn’t forced into the lives like this incredibly mind strong man is. Another great one IAN
His marriage is a sticky situation. On one hand, you're glad he reconnected with her & got back together, but on the other hand, now there's some poor schmuck out there who started a family with her who is now feeling the same loneliness & hurt that he was feeling when she left him.
That’s an interesting idea. What professional guidelines do you think would prevent the professional jury from corruption? I wish more out of people, but I think they would be taking deals and naturally become befriended by the DA office etc. What about travel juror? Willing to travel to different jury assignments out of your state so you are not bias. These would most likely be young people with flexibility and without families who are interested in some type of the law as a later profession. If I were an aspiring lawyer, a year or two as a paid travel juror I would be great experience. I would ACTUALLY LISTEN to the trial. And whether it takes 2 hours or 20 to come up with a decision, the decision is read on a Friday. There is no going home early you deliberate all week regardless (3-4 hours a day I guess whatever) Long winded- but I never thought of a professional jury that’s something to consider. I think you’re really on to something there.
I just came across this page and mannnn I love it. I have so many videos I want to watch. It’ll be good stuff to listen to on the way to work/home . I have watched just 1 so far and it’s amazing. You do really well interviewing them and everything. Keep up the AMAZING content bro!
Ian, drug dealers do kill people, unintentionally, but it happens. One of my daughter's friends died last year from recreational cocaine use. It was laced with fentanyl. The kid only used cocaine about 4 times a year.
Roxanne, respectfully I must disagree. And I am very, very glad you mentioned the fentanyl. It remains BECAUSE drugs are illegal that drugs are able to be processed/made, packaged, and distributed by who knows!!?!! Possibly by evil people. And definitely by people who do-not-care. PLEASE tell me you are not for more laws. This is a large problem with the Democrats (and I know Republicans are responsible for the dumb War On Drugs). Much like Gun Control, criminals don't obey laws, --- so pass all the laws you want. *Forgive me for bringing politics into this but it feels relevant.
Very very important to bring this up and remind folks that “ recreational “ drug use is a lot like Russian Roulette and needs to be discussed much more often! Thank You! 👵🏽✌🏾🌿🦬🌿💚
Chad tells a lot of stories a little bit to meet up in his head already heard from other inmates he was never on Adams unit not his celly ever that’s all lies he’s ready for a lawsuit to happen because he’s using photos of inmates and he saying a lot of lies about them he really should smarten up he was nothing but a punk when he was in big Sandy now he’s trying to be a big shot what a joke
I would say drugs are a crime against humanity BUT the punishment is excessive. The reason it’s excessive is because the government doesn’t want people to make money without their hands in it. That’s the bottom line. It’s no longer about society and a moral clause.
I got tattoos from the same spankie in otisville. Spankie came to otisville after raybrook. I also got ink from the guy twigg. Black kid that came to otisville also. That’s crazy to see other people who got ink from spanky. Small world.
I was on jury duty a few years ago. It was for a fight in prison and they were trying to charge him with all kinds of crazy shit. I held it up because the jurors just wanted to come back with a guilty verdict to be done with it. I fought it because there was not enough evidence at all.
Good on you man. That’s the whole point of a jury. I’ve never served, but I’ll be damned if I come back with a guilty verdict if the evidence is weak. Good job in standing up for what’s right.
@@chopper1168 I think people feel pressured to make a decision, or they will follow the group and go along with what the majority says. This may be done because the people don’t want to ruffle feathers and go against the grain or it may be done because they don’t want to be there. Instead of everybody going into a room and deciding, maybe have people write down anonymously what their verdict is, cast their “vote”, and then find out what the decision is. Somebody’s life hangs in the balance and it would really be shitty to be sent to prison because people followed the group or just cast their decision with the majority so that they can go home. It’s not like their deciding what to eat or what show to watch, but whether or not a person is going to be sentenced to something that may affect the rest of their lives and their family’s lives forever. Again, what you did is honorable and I hope more people do what you do when serving on a jury.
ooowww aren’t you just a cool guy. You want a cookie or some prison stripes because you held up a jury for someone that probably was guilty.? I hate comments like this it comes off like I just said as Someone who wants some cool points or some sort of stripes because you did what you did.
You two compliment each other perfectly.. that hour and half seemed liked 10 minutes..you two should team up and do interviews together would be awesome. chad and ian podcast.. or east coast connection.
This is the best podcast I’ve watched on your channel this guys story is very captivating and interesting .. good luck to this man I pray he keeps out of jail .. brilliant podcast ..
It's insane how people's lives are played with like they mean nothing. I was ready to go home based on the deal made between my lawyer and the judge. I had done my program plus an extra 2 months waiting for an opening, just to go to court on a Friday and be told by the judge "i don't like releasing people on Fridays. They're more likely to offend" only to spend another week, and be released on a Thursday. K
May be statistically they are. Many businesses aren't open on weekends and having job waiting for you on the outside is a great way to prevent recidivism. But most likely, the judge is probably an assshole.
Chad just blessed you with a great interview , man i thought i knew chad but this interview was Great he was busting the science on so many things, Great work Ian!!
I'm glad this man is home with his family. Jails and prisons are the lowest of low. Avoid our criminal justice system AT ALL COSTS. It's a big business and they don't care about you whatsoever.
Facts. Reality is they actually do “care about you”, just not in the way anyone wants to be cared for. Especially w the private institutions, they care that you stay your ass in there and keep that revenue flowing. They care that you re-offend (or I should say, that you get sent back period), and they care that you don’t improve yourself while behind bars. All reasons to stay away from the system altogether as you said. And to speak out against the system whenever possible, they think they are untouchable but we’ve fortunately got people like Chad who show them otherwise. Shit is insane
Awesome 👌 great job guys, I liked seeing yall showing each other a lot of love! It's much better than the prison genre popping off and hating on each other. So many RUclips host have fallen victim to ego deaths and old habits of getting locked up, happy to see some make it out
Y’all notice every guest in their title it’s says “surviving or sentenced to the most dangerous prison in America” but they all went to different prisons ! Every prison is the most dangerous in America 😂😂😢😢❤❤
Dude. I did 18 months, and it was fkin terrible experiencing the lack of any control over the situation . Any real man will tell you it's not the place to be and it's time you can't get back. I absolutely cannot imagine two decades. That shit breaks my heart for all those caged because of money. Literally . Because that's ultimately what it's about. Money. His comment about it feeling like a rich white den in court , that's because it is. The judicial system is a business not justice. Think about it. Bond ... Money.... Court costs.... money.. an inmate incarcerated... state makes money every day your there. License for atty to "do business".. Atty fees ... Money , etc All about money. It's a business and he's right there is no compassion. My prayers go out to those locked up . May God be with them and strengthen them
Fellas told me they'd do a county year on their head. I dont see how, few weeks woke me up real bright eyed and bushy tailed. 18 months ain't shyt... man that's a newborn that walks now. 18 months is a long fing time. Period. Stay up bro
It’s a two tiered justice system as well. If you are rich, you can hire high powered attorneys and bond out. If you’re politically connected or are in state govt or federal govt, you pretty much get a free pass so long as your crimes aren’t blatant… unless you’re hillary Clinton, the. You can have a whole case laid out on national TV and have the FBI director say that there was no intent so there’s no crime., and get off scot-free. The rest of us who don’t have tens of millions of dollars or aren’t connected to people in high places politically, we go through another tier of justice where the outcomes aren’t as good.
@@aaronanderson7619 yeah round here 18 is county life. But I did mine in prison. Well 15 of it. And yes if your an idiot it's no time at all bcuz that's where you live anyways 🤦 fr tho 18 was rough man and I was well respected I was head cook in the kitchen and hooked everyone up and it was still rough man. 🫡
My prayers go out to the victims wives and bastards. Just open the door to a church. That's it. Father sun always gives us a way out like in the training manual breaking bad. The scientist could of said ty to his old rich partner. Yes becoming a man or learning to fight is a thing AND SURVIVING but we all gotta learn that. Even if it's fighting cancer, fighting tyranny or fighting family paper theft. People die n getting rpd in and out, sold & items. Father sun loves you hold your hands up to him and ask him for help. Close the door on lies, theft, force, stupidity and loneliness. Truth, giving, feeding, study, service. #100. Satan comes to steal, kill and destroy. You have not because you ask not. Ask the sun. Love the sun. Thank the sun. Honor father suns creations. Seek to learn about all sciences and techniques. Nutrition &,exercise, law & nature. God! Provide! Protect! Prosper! Heal! Love! And Guide immediately and forever all who read this and their family, friends and pets in the name of guru jesus, mother ocean, sister stars, father sun and uncle universe. Thank you God! I love you God!mk$
Ian, I'm thankful you don't over do ads. Sadly there's other's who do over do them, and I have to watch THEM with adblocker on, and I want to support all you guys, but I listen while driving or working, I cant be grabbing my phone every few minutes. I think it's one of the many reason's you're doing so well. You also do a fantastic interview, ask great thoughtful questions, are laid back, humble, plus everyone loves.... McLOVIN
What an interesting dude. I have met a few dudes who did fed time and they all have some stories. Really good dudes. Bank robbers and shit like that. I really enjoyed sitting and talking with them.
"WHY DIDNT YOU DO ANYTHING TO HIM" I DID 18 YEARS MAN I DONT WANNA GO BACK TO PRISON!!!!! people don't realize that you have to out your pride to the side some times who cares how you look you let it be known you demand respect but are not dumb enough to go to prison over it. Any smart man who's been to a REAL PEN or REAL MAX will tell you I'm walking tf away cause I'm not going back.
Especially for drug dealing. People get less time for rape, armed robbery, assault with a deadly weapon, and even murder than this dude got for selling crack. That is an excessively harsh sentence. Hell, even “people” that molest kids get less time than this dude, which is deplorable.
Big Smalls was not rapping about blowing up the World Trade Center. It was a metaphor about how he was blowing up in regards to money and fame or even in the drug game.
It was still a metaphor in reference to the 1993 bombing of the world trade center.. so he did in fact rap about the bombing of world trade center lol. Also Biggie wasn't in the drug game he was a storyteller
Check it. I grew up a fucking screw up. Got an ounce of dope and blew up. Choppin rocks over night the nigga biggie smalls trying turn into a black frank white
A perfect example of finding a illegal Hustle that you are great at,flipping it around to a legit Hustle and use it to beat a system that is designed to not loose.and use a second chance to try to make up for all the wrongs
I watched this all the way through with no break. The drug war in this country is a travesty i know some drugs are not good i was an addict but to strip a persons freedom away for decades for possessing a substance is insane to me. Thanks Ian awesome interview
@@joewalsh886 Yep! All we do by any form of prohibition is open wicked black markets where decent people just want to be popular at a party or something and are forced to deal with dangerous and sometimes evil men. Republicans are the ones we have (well, Libertarians) to depend on to fight for our personal freedoms. Not Democrats. They are ALWAYS passing new laws, never repealing. The last thing we need are more laws. Like Gun Control, criminals don't follow laws so pass all the laws you want..... As a side example. **Forgive my throwing politics into this.
Appreciate everyone
Appreciate you big bro
is it true u snitched?
Don't put Me in timeout now. Lmao smh
@@TheRealWilliamm why would you even say that!!
@@dennisritchie965 troll don't think on it 😂
Chad was a man in prison...got out and became a better man once he won his freedom...he has helped many other's gain their freedom...Kudos Chad
CHAD, YOU'RE THE FIRST PODCASTER YOU TUBER WHOM GIVES GOD THE HONOR. " BY THE GRACE OF GOD" AMEN N AMEN
The first one? Really?😂
The LORD aka GOD manifested, or a Sky Daddy like Zeus?
Ian you’re really a great interviewer bro. Perfect mix of good questions but mostly just letting people talk. Your talk show host instincts are super solid.
Our "justice" system is a joke. I was a cop for a very long time. He was sentenced to 40 years for dealing crack, yet people that are drunk driving, cause an accident and kill someone, they get 4 years...Freaking joke
child molesters getting 10 years... so fucking disgusting
They go all out at war against any untaxed money, with utter disregard for human life.
It's all about financial control, protracting slavery.
Is also weaponized, just look what they are doing to Trump.
I agree
People who sexually assault children and destroy their lives get less than half that. Crazy system for sure!
I agree brother: No friking hi five on 40 years. You’ve done awesome. From poverty and prison to having a good heart and a sound mind. Solid logic, goodwill towards others… Heartwarming to watch
Ian with another banger. I love how the prison RUclips genre continues to grow and continues to be transparent to help others. It’s a pleasure to follow you both. Keep on grinding Bick!
Thank you my friend
This guy is interviewing all the elite prison youtubers. Salute Ian and Chad.

Right right. Thats how you do it.
Big Chads Blood On The Razor Wire, one of the best if not the best Fed Prison Channel hands down.💯
I was at Big Sandy with Chad and his stories are 💯 real.
I recommend his book. Definitely a page turner.
Great interview Ian. Much respect
🤜🏼🤛🏼

We need a part 2. I've watches several vids of Chad's never heard his full story. He is a solid dude he deserved the compassion release

ive been on chad;s channel for well over a year. he is great
Its cool to hear more details of Chad's pre sentencing story
His marriage is a sticky situation. On one hand, you're glad he reconnected with her & got back together, but on the other hand, now there's some poor schmuck out there who started a family with her who is now feeling the same loneliness & hurt that he was feeling when she left him.
Yes, it's messed up
Love what you have become Chad! fight the good fight & keep doing what you believe in
I found you just a few weeks ago and iam hooked i dont watch or listen to any other pod cast keep it up your killing it
Thanks so much!!

Blood on the razor wire is the best RUclips prison channel bar none! Salute Chad! 🫡
24:05 theres a saying at my county jail & Im sure its not the only one but its "hope for the best, expect the worst"
Chad marks is the man. New York State holding it down. Much respect to both u.
Support! Chad you a truly an inspiration bro!
A 🔥 interview! Loved it bro.
I would say drugs are a crime against humanity BUT the punishment is excessive. The reason it’s excessive is because the government doesn’t want people to make money without their hands in it. That’s the bottom line. It’s no longer about society and a moral clause.
keep going man, everything you do is v high production and the shorts/tik toks are cut the right way too. a year or two, 250k subs ong
So good to hear about such a great judge.
Chads a very smart dude
Impressive how smart he is. Humble also.
With Respect 💚

Thanks been out 3 years in June
@@bloodontherazorwiretv just subbed to your channel bro 👊🏾 south east London England fan..
@@snipedotgenius thanks
It's insane how people's lives are played with like they mean nothing. I was ready to go home based on the deal made between my lawyer and the judge. I had done my program plus an extra 2 months waiting for an opening, just to go to court on a Friday and be told by the judge "i don't like releasing people on Fridays. They're more likely to offend" only to spend another week, and be released on a Thursday. K
don't do crime then.... It is that simple....

May be statistically they are. Many businesses aren't open on weekends and having job waiting for you on the outside is a great way to prevent recidivism. But most likely, the judge is probably an assshole.
Watxhing on youtube but seen the reel on FB. Keep up the good work 👏
Great interview!!! Hes doing really good for himself, better than ppl who've been out for alot longer
I salute you young man. Representing the 613 Ottawa, Canada 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦👍👍
Appreciate you!
I wish chad nothing but the best
Chad Marks for Federal Director of the United States Bureau of Prison!
Success is the best revenge. Good on ya both. Chad thank you for what you do.
Chad one of the most solid dudes around and it’s just apparent from seeing him, much respect to him 🙏🏼
Awesome interview man, what an interesting dude
❤️❤️
Chad just blessed you with a great interview , man i thought i knew chad but this interview was Great he was busting the science on so many things, Great work Ian!!
You're good at this Ian. Love what you do.
Thank u
I really don't understand how they can send someone to prison for that long for selling drugs it's not like he did 50 kilos it blows me away
I'm glad this man is home with his family. Jails and prisons are the lowest of low. Avoid our criminal justice system AT ALL COSTS. It's a big business and they don't care about you whatsoever.
Facts. Reality is they actually do “care about you”, just not in the way anyone wants to be cared for. Especially w the private institutions, they care that you stay your ass in there and keep that revenue flowing. They care that you re-offend (or I should say, that you get sent back period), and they care that you don’t improve yourself while behind bars.
All reasons to stay away from the system altogether as you said. And to speak out against the system whenever possible, they think they are untouchable but we’ve fortunately got people like Chad who show them otherwise. Shit is insane
Awesome 👌 great job guys, I liked seeing yall showing each other a lot of love! It's much better than the prison genre popping off and hating on each other. So many RUclips host have fallen victim to ego deaths and old habits of getting locked up, happy to see some make it out
Love your interview ive watch most of them keep up the grind 🤟🤟🤟
Y’all notice every guest in their title it’s says “surviving or sentenced to the most dangerous prison in America” but they all went to different prisons ! Every prison is the most dangerous in America 😂😂😢😢❤❤
Dude. I did 18 months, and it was fkin terrible experiencing the lack of any control over the situation . Any real man will tell you it's not the place to be and it's time you can't get back. I absolutely cannot imagine two decades. That shit breaks my heart for all those caged because of money.
Literally .
Because that's ultimately what it's about.
Money.
His comment about it feeling like a rich white den in court , that's because it is. The judicial system is a business not justice. Think about it. Bond ... Money.... Court costs.... money.. an inmate incarcerated... state makes money every day your there. License for atty to "do business".. Atty fees ... Money , etc
All about money. It's a business and he's right there is no compassion.
My prayers go out to those locked up . May God be with them and strengthen them
Fellas told me they'd do a county year on their head. I dont see how, few weeks woke me up real bright eyed and bushy tailed.
18 months ain't shyt... man that's a newborn that walks now. 18 months is a long fing time. Period.
Stay up bro
It’s a two tiered justice system as well. If you are rich, you can hire high powered attorneys and bond out. If you’re politically connected or are in state govt or federal govt, you pretty much get a free pass so long as your crimes aren’t blatant… unless you’re hillary Clinton, the. You can have a whole case laid out on national TV and have the FBI director say that there was no intent so there’s no crime., and get off scot-free.
The rest of us who don’t have tens of millions of dollars or aren’t connected to people in high places politically, we go through another tier of justice where the outcomes aren’t as good.
@@aaronanderson7619 yeah round here 18 is county life. But I did mine in prison. Well 15 of it. And yes if your an idiot it's no time at all bcuz that's where you live anyways 🤦 fr tho 18 was rough man and I was well respected I was head cook in the kitchen and hooked everyone up and it was still rough man.
🫡
@@aaronanderson7619it’s without women so any time is a long time😂
My prayers go out to the victims wives and bastards. Just open the door to a church. That's it. Father sun always gives us a way out like in the training manual breaking bad. The scientist could of said ty to his old rich partner. Yes becoming a man or learning to fight is a thing AND SURVIVING but we all gotta learn that. Even if it's fighting cancer, fighting tyranny or fighting family paper theft. People die n getting rpd in and out, sold & items. Father sun loves you hold your hands up to him and ask him for help. Close the door on lies, theft, force, stupidity and loneliness. Truth, giving, feeding, study, service. #100. Satan comes to steal, kill and destroy. You have not because you ask not. Ask the sun. Love the sun. Thank the sun. Honor father suns creations. Seek to learn about all sciences and techniques. Nutrition &,exercise, law & nature. God! Provide! Protect! Prosper! Heal! Love! And Guide immediately and forever all who read this and their family, friends and pets in the name of guru jesus, mother ocean, sister stars, father sun and uncle universe. Thank you God! I love you God!mk$
It's refreshing to see a guy tell his prison story and not try and be like Wes watson. Guy in the red hat is honest and rational.
Not even comparable stories or prisons. Obviously you don’t know bout that.
@@dfauber59 Not a flex to know about that either.
Probably one of my favorite episodes so far!
Ian, I'm thankful you don't over do ads. Sadly there's other's who do over do them, and I have to watch THEM with adblocker on, and I want to support all you guys, but I listen while driving or working, I cant be grabbing my phone every few minutes. I think it's one of the many reason's you're doing so well. You also do a fantastic interview, ask great thoughtful questions, are laid back, humble, plus everyone loves.... McLOVIN
Thank you so much❤️🙏
What an interesting dude. I have met a few dudes who did fed time and they all have some stories. Really good dudes. Bank robbers and shit like that. I really enjoyed sitting and talking with them.
"WHY DIDNT YOU DO ANYTHING TO HIM" I DID 18 YEARS MAN I DONT WANNA GO BACK TO PRISON!!!!!
people don't realize that you have to out your pride to the side some times who cares how you look you let it be known you demand respect but are not dumb enough to go to prison over it. Any smart man who's been to a REAL PEN or REAL MAX will tell you I'm walking tf away cause I'm not going back.
One of the best interviews I’ve ever seen💪🏻😎👊🏻
Almost had a story like this....
Happy this cat is out here again.
Doesn't take 40 yrs to learn a lesson
Yes it does
Especially for drug dealing. People get less time for rape, armed robbery, assault with a deadly weapon, and even murder than this dude got for selling crack. That is an excessively harsh sentence. Hell, even “people” that molest kids get less time than this dude, which is deplorable.
@@Mark-uh4zd Hey,.... Excellent point!
Big Smalls was not rapping about blowing up the World Trade Center. It was a metaphor about how he was blowing up in regards to money and fame or even in the drug game.
It was still a metaphor in reference to the 1993 bombing of the world trade center.. so he did in fact rap about the bombing of world trade center lol.
Also Biggie wasn't in the drug game he was a storyteller
Obviously this guy knows that, He knew biggie was referencing blowing up to " Being successful" in the rap game
Check it. I grew up a fucking screw up.
Got an ounce of dope and blew up.
Choppin rocks over night
the nigga biggie smalls trying turn into a black frank white
He pretty much acknowledged the metaphor tho
A perfect example of finding a illegal Hustle that you are great at,flipping it around to a legit Hustle and use it to beat a system that is designed to not loose.and use a second chance to try to make up for all the wrongs
chad is top notch content and has a ton of words of wisdom, i watch all his stuff - solid in my opinion
I watched this all the way through with no break. The drug war in this country is a travesty i know some drugs are not good i was an addict but to strip a persons freedom away for decades for possessing a substance is insane to me. Thanks Ian awesome interview
It’s def real
@@bloodontherazorwiretvi send minez your way 🫡
Crazy to think you get more time for selling drugs than you would for sexual assault, armed robbery, assault with a deadly weapon, and so forth.
@@Mark-uh4zd we will look back on the drug war one day like we look at prohibition in the 1920's
@@joewalsh886 Yep! All we do by any form of prohibition is open wicked black markets where decent people just want to be popular at a party or something and are forced to deal with dangerous and sometimes evil men.
Republicans are the ones we have (well, Libertarians) to depend on to fight for our personal freedoms. Not Democrats. They are ALWAYS passing new laws, never repealing. The last thing we need are more laws.
Like Gun Control, criminals don't follow laws so pass all the laws you want..... As a side example. **Forgive my throwing politics into this.
Prison back piece goes hard!!!
Upstate New Yorker here. Nice to finally hear some stories from my area.
Awesome Awesome interview!! 10/10!!!! Now let’s see Chad and JD @Blood On The Razor Wire
This one of the best interviews bro dude a legend blood on the razor 🫡🐐
This system has nothing to do with justice at all. It’s really insane
Chad out here doing Gods work
