Big Boys Neighborhood.
Speaker 3 (00:04):
All right, now, beautiful day in the neighborhood, Ladies and gentlemen,
My partner Exhibit, welcome back to what up? Hey man.
As soon as I say Exhibit, you lose you go.
And then when I talk to Exhibit, I go, do
you get tired of that?
Speaker 1 (00:20):
No?
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Okay, yes, all right? It feels like tradition. Yeah man,
thank you brother.
Speaker 4 (00:25):
The interview is blessed when you when you have that
kind of sequence of events happen.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
How excited are you for what's coming up? First off,
I got to say congratulations to thank you.
Speaker 5 (00:33):
Thank Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Man, It's wild because after you know, so many years
in the game, to still have this love and still
want to be in a position where you want to create.
Why this album? You know what I'm saying, like like
why why? Why get back into booth?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Like why?
Speaker 4 (00:49):
When I made King Maker, I did it the way
I like to do music. And so when you listen
to King Maker, even if you you know give it one, listen,
listen from the top down, listen in order. It's built
a specific way, and if you go on that ride,
I think that you're going to learn a lot about
me that you don't know, and that you are going
to feel something that is relatable to what you are
(01:13):
going through.
Speaker 5 (01:14):
You know.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
King Maker is entitled that way because it has nothing
to do with thrones or crowns or feeling k royalty
or any of that. This is about a transfer of information,
the keys to my kingdom. These are the ideologies. These
are the habits, the self discipline, the acceptance of what
you can't change, and the things that were instilled in
(01:36):
me that made me successful, my moral compass, the things
that I did wrong, the things that I did right.
It's all on this record. And it's kind of like,
if I was to give this information to the public,
you can do what you will with it. But this
is my book of success. King Maker is a title
so you can make yourself successful as well.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Was it easy to make or did you have to
go different layers?
Speaker 3 (01:56):
No?
Speaker 4 (01:56):
I started this album like five six different times, and
it was just like, Nope, that ain't it.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
Damn Nope, that ain't it.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
That ain't Did you know? It was always king Maker
as a title. Once you saw the body of.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
Music, once the body of work came together and the
idea hit, and I was like, oh, there it is.
Speaker 5 (02:12):
That's what I have to call this.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Hey man, Now, when we talk about the album King Maker,
I know at one point we said, you were like, man,
I got Dre. Yes, talk to me about that Doctor
Dre relationship on King Maker. Man.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
Okay, So, first of all, shout out to doctor Dre.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I wouldn't even want to work with him again.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Yeah. And the reason why because even when you how
you said, man, he kept telling this way. You know
what I'm saying, Like, You're like, man, he had me
do that like four or five hundred times. I was like, man,
I ain't getting his due back on that.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
Man. It's it's really dope to be able to be
in that room.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
And when this record was coming together, working with Dre
was kind of like the last it's actually the last
song we did for the record. It's a song called
leave Me Alone with Me. Doctor Dre and Ty Dollar
Sign Jesus and Swiss Beats produced it.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
It just really came together.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
It was like, what does that mean when you say
you Doctor Dre tied dollars line, but Swizz Beats produced
in correct.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Okay, So what does that mean with Dre being on
thereres artist.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Yeah, he did co production. They worked on the track together.
It's one of them ones. So I was really excited.
I was like, wow, this is this is pussy.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Hey, did Dre have to listen to anything else first before?
But Dre already they got to be a trust in
you because you and Drake got such a great relations relationship. Anyway, Listen,
I mean it's you can't. You can't make doctor Trey
do nothing. He didn't want to do.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Not at all.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Trust Yeah, So it was dope to be able to
present the idea, present the album, present the steps that
it was going like as it happened. And so when
it came time to doing that, I just went back
and was like, listen, this is where we're at, this
is what we're doing.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
Can we do it? He's like yeah, and he was.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
He he's in and hands on though.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Absolutely yeah he did. He don't do it no other way.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Ex hold on, We're not gonna let you go, man.
We got more with exhibit in the Neighborhood, y'all continue
to hang out with his Big Boys name.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
This is big Boy on Demand, Big.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Boys Neighborhood alrighty the King maker himself West coast Oridge
and now we got missed the X two disease exhibit
in the neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Hey man, do you feel like things are coming back
around now?
Speaker 5 (04:14):
Absolutely?
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Yeah, because I've had this conversation with others man where
you know, and no disrespect, but it it started getting
real goofy and people were letting you know that it
was goofy. People were letting you know that they didn't
care about hip hop, right, you know, and like I
said before, people were urinating on they plaques and you
know what I'm saying, I've only been rapping for you know,
such and such month.
Speaker 5 (04:32):
Yeah, you know it sounds like it.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
But then the audience You're like, okay, and there's a
place for that too. But yeah, it seemed like it's
coming and I hate to always it's coming full circle,
but I feel that there's a different kind of momentum
that's going down.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
I think every ten years it's the new changing of
the guard. Kendrick is to be applauded with the energy
he brought to the city with the pop Art concert. Yeah, man,
that was the match, right, you know, I'm not even
talking about the Drake Kendrick Beef. That's their business. I
have no dog in that fight. But what the energy
(05:07):
he brought to the city meant to so many people.
And it just felt like, you know, the changing, the
seasons were changing, like the expectation. The people were being
sparked by something different than the programming and it was
dope to be able to break outside of that. And
you know, it was a celebration. Like in my studio,
(05:27):
everybody else felt it, you know. And now the music
that's coming out and the people are seeing, you know,
this unification. Arguably, the West Coast is its own country.
We can support ourselves here. I think that organization and
that step towards that is happening.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Yeah, and you see it, man. And the one thing too,
is that it's being led by talent.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
Yes, yes, you.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Know, gemmicks, not antics, not you know, not drama. It's
not overshadowing the music, you know. So the music is speaking.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
We're you nervous about today's climate, not at all, and
the audience and not at all.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
Never thought about it, not at all.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
I think that you know, yes, things have changed, the
climate is different, but I believe that there's always room
for the truth. There's always room for people that love
what we make from back then till now. If you
listen to this record, you're gonna hear something that you love.
(06:25):
I think it's subgenres of hip hop now. But if
you love lyrics, if you love production, if you love
the creativity, punchlines, storytelling, it's there now. If you expected
me to come out with you know, a current sound,
a snap, you know, drill, and.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
It's not that.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
I always always always compare that to like when we
were going to clubs, you'd always see the old guy
in the club dances.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
You know what you're doing in here if you don't
get your friend. Even at one point, man, people wasn't
tapping in with the West Coast right a certain way right,
and it was like, all right, we'll cool. We just
gonna make what we make, yes, And then you start
like we would go places. Man, there was no bloods,
(07:11):
there was no cribs, and now they blooding and cripping,
damn it like us in Denmark.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Ye, yeah, you know what I'm saying, but really it's everywhere.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
But it was a lifestyle that we enjoy and we
did it and it was like, oh, we're doing for
us right and the world. The world accepted it, you
know what I'm saying. But we didn't change correct for
the world.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
That's what and that's exactly where I am. I don't
need to chase the sound. I don't need to do
what's current. I just need to do what I do
really well. I just couldn't leave my legacy at twenty twelve.
I feel like I owe my audience this record.

Hey man, I'm going to run some names past your
ex and just briefly what they mean to you.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Those kind of things, you know, Doctor.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Dre growing up being a fan first and then meeting
the man, and then him being able to embrace what
I was doing and put it into his creative process.
To me will always be the life changing experience that
I'll always give that regard. On the side of that,
you know, Andre Young, the man is very inspirational to me.
(08:44):
Seeing what he's been through through his challenges has been
a lesson in itself. To be able to speak to him,
call them, have these conversations personal and professional is always
going to be appreciated. And I love that dude. Snoop
dog Snoop Dogg is the mother man. You know what
I'm saying, Like most popular on the planet man snoo.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
People don't even rapper Snoop Dogg. They just say Snoop Dogg. Yeah, Snoop.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
You know.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
To see what he's what he's been through as well,
and his staying power, he's really hard working behind the scenes.
He's always him unapologetically and you know, I'm glad I
was able to make the things happen that I have
been able to make happen with him, and you know,
and to still see him going. I know people gave
(09:33):
him a lot for the performance he did with the
you know, crypto, but you can't cancel Snoop Dogg. You
know what I'm saying, Like, regardless of his reasoning or
why or how he did it, that's his reason, right,
and he don't have to explain that to you.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
And my thing is this man.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
People would ask me about it X and I'm like, man,
I haven't talked a dog about it, So I'm not
gonna talk to you.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I don't need to.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
I don't really have to clear And he didn't have
to call me like, b this is what I'm doing,
you know. And my thing is this man, Like there's
so many deposits, you know what I'm saying, if you
look at something as a withdrawal, Okay, there's.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
So many things that he does that he doesn't get
recognized for and don't want to and and and there's
and he's changed lives not only from his arranging from
his football team. But look at the testament of a
of a of a man is his children. Look at
how powerful and driven Cordell is, you know what I'm saying,
Like graduating from business school and then coming back to
(10:31):
his father and building these big not these ain't just
like oh we're gonna iron some stuff on a T
shirt and sell it at his shows. These are corporate
moves that are not easy to navigate, and he's doing
it like his you know, with his shirt off.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
You know you're drinking, put.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
His shirt on you you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
But he's making it look effortless and that's really dope.
And so that's how I feel about Snoop and what
he's done. And I'm very proud to call him my friend.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Eminem Marshall Marshall Mathers.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Yeah, okay, So you see rappers and then you see legends, right,
Eminem is a legend. There will always be a place
for him in the history books of this thing of ours.
When you say a savant when it comes to hip
hop and how he appreciates and it loves it. He
feels the same way I do that hip hop saved
(11:22):
my life and I will always, you know, give my
one hundred and ten percent. And when I don't feel
like that, I'm not gonna do it. So I feel
like Marshall has claimed his spot in hip hop royalty.
He's had the same people around him since the beginning. Yeah, man,
And that speaks volumes as well, Eminem Marshall Mathers, that's
the homie Nate dog Nate Dogg. I miss him, Yeah,
(11:43):
I miss him. There will never be another. Nate Dogg
is one of a kind. He moved the coast first
and then he moved the world, ye man, and he's
on cubes at best. It ain't a hit until Nate
Dogg singing. King and the King T in alcoholics. I
wouldn't be here without King T. As many accolades that
(12:04):
I give Doctor Trey for the trajectory of my success,
I wouldn't have that opportunity if King T hadn't given me.
The first one that was the first time I wrapped
on anything was King T's fourth album Freestyle, Getting Maam
From there, I got signed to Loud Records, and so yeah, man,
I feel like my journey has been very unique and
I wouldn't do it any other way.
Speaker 3 (12:24):

If you really look at at that scene, the car
hits a guy and it goes flying in the air
and he lands and then he gets up and starts running.

That's the only way that we were able to use
the shot because he got up and started running, thank god.

cop car that spins in and hits a guy and
he's flying in the air.

I got to say congratulations to thank you.
Speaker 5 (00:33):
Thank Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Man, It's wild because after you know, so many years
in the game, to still have this love and still
want to be in a position where you want to create.
Why this album? You know what I'm saying, like like
why why? Why get back into booth?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Like why?
Speaker 4 (00:49):
When I made King Maker, I did it the way
I like to do music. And so when you listen
to King Maker, even if you you know give it one, listen,
listen from the top down, listen in order. It's built
a specific way, and if you go on that ride,
I think that you're going to learn a lot about
me that you don't know, and that you are going
to feel something that is relatable to what you are
(01:13):
going through.
Speaker 5 (01:14):
You know.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
King Maker is entitled that way because it has nothing
to do with thrones or crowns or feeling k royalty
or any of that. This is about a transfer of information,
the keys to my kingdom. These are the ideologies. These
are the habits, the self discipline, the acceptance of what
you can't change, and the things that were instilled in
(01:36):
me that made me successful, my moral compass, the things
that I did wrong, the things that I did right.
It's all on this record. And it's kind of like,
if I was to give this information to the public,
you can do what you will with it. But this
is my book of success. King Maker is a title
so you can make yourself successful as well.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Was it easy to make or did you have to
go different layers?
Speaker 3 (01:56):
No?
Speaker 4 (01:56):
I started this album like five six different times, and
it was just like, Nope, that ain't it.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
Damn Nope, that ain't it.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
That ain't Did you know? It was always king Maker
as a title. Once you saw the body of.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
Music, once the body of work came together and the
idea hit, and I was like, oh, there it is.
Speaker 5 (02:12):
That's what I have to call this.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Hey man, Now, when we talk about the album King Maker,
I know at one point we said, you were like, man,
I got Dre. Yes, talk to me about that Doctor
Dre relationship on King Maker. Man.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
Okay, So, first of all, shout out to doctor Dre.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I wouldn't even want to work with him again.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Yeah. And the reason why because even when you how
you said, man, he kept telling this way. You know
what I'm saying, Like, You're like, man, he had me
do that like four or five hundred times. I was like, man,
I ain't getting his due back on that.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
Man. It's it's really dope to be able to be
in that room.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
And when this record was coming together, working with Dre
was kind of like the last it's actually the last
song we did for the record. It's a song called
leave Me Alone with Me. Doctor Dre and Ty Dollar
Sign Jesus and Swiss Beats produced it.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
It just really came together.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
It was like, what does that mean when you say
you Doctor Dre tied dollars line, but Swizz Beats produced
in correct.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Okay, So what does that mean with Dre being on
thereres artist.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Yeah, he did co production. They worked on the track together.
It's one of them ones. So I was really excited.
I was like, wow, this is this is pussy.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Hey, did Dre have to listen to anything else first before?
But Dre already they got to be a trust in
you because you and Drake got such a great relations relationship. Anyway, Listen,
I mean it's you can't. You can't make doctor Trey
do nothing. He didn't want to do.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Not at all.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Trust Yeah, So it was dope to be able to
present the idea, present the album, present the steps that
it was going like as it happened. And so when
it came time to doing that, I just went back
and was like, listen, this is where we're at, this
is what we're doing.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
Can we do it? He's like yeah, and he was.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
He he's in and hands on though.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Absolutely yeah he did. He don't do it no other way.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Ex hold on, We're not gonna let you go, man.
We got more with exhibit in the Neighborhood, y'all continue
to hang out with his Big Boys name.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
This is big Boy on Demand, Big.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Boys Neighborhood alrighty the King maker himself West coast Oridge
and now we got missed the X two disease exhibit
in the neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Hey man, do you feel like things are coming back
around now?
Speaker 5 (04:14):
Absolutely?
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Yeah, because I've had this conversation with others man where
you know, and no disrespect, but it it started getting
real goofy and people were letting you know that it
was goofy. People were letting you know that they didn't
care about hip hop, right, you know, and like I
said before, people were urinating on they plaques and you
know what I'm saying, I've only been rapping for you know,
such and such month.
Speaker 5 (04:32):
Yeah, you know it sounds like it.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
But then the audience You're like, okay, and there's a
place for that too. But yeah, it seemed like it's
coming and I hate to always it's coming full circle,
but I feel that there's a different kind of momentum
that's going down.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
I think every ten years it's the new changing of
the guard. Kendrick is to be applauded with the energy
he brought to the city with the pop Art concert. Yeah, man,
that was the match, right, you know, I'm not even
talking about the Drake Kendrick Beef. That's their business. I
have no dog in that fight. But what the energy
(05:07):
he brought to the city meant to so many people.
And it just felt like, you know, the changing, the
seasons were changing, like the expectation. The people were being
sparked by something different than the programming and it was
dope to be able to break outside of that. And
you know, it was a celebration. Like in my studio,
(05:27):
everybody else felt it, you know. And now the music
that's coming out and the people are seeing, you know,
this unification. Arguably, the West Coast is its own country.
We can support ourselves here. I think that organization and
that step towards that is happening.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Yeah, and you see it, man. And the one thing too,
is that it's being led by talent.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
Yes, yes, you.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Know, gemmicks, not antics, not you know, not drama. It's
not overshadowing the music, you know. So the music is speaking.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
We're you nervous about today's climate, not at all, and
the audience and not at all.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
Never thought about it, not at all.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
I think that you know, yes, things have changed, the
climate is different, but I believe that there's always room
for the truth. There's always room for people that love
what we make from back then till now. If you
listen to this record, you're gonna hear something that you love.
(06:25):
I think it's subgenres of hip hop now. But if
you love lyrics, if you love production, if you love
the creativity, punchlines, storytelling, it's there now. If you expected
me to come out with you know, a current sound,
a snap, you know, drill, and.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
It's not that.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
I always always always compare that to like when we
were going to clubs, you'd always see the old guy
in the club dances.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
You know what you're doing in here if you don't
get your friend. Even at one point, man, people wasn't
tapping in with the West Coast right a certain way right,
and it was like, all right, we'll cool. We just
gonna make what we make, yes, And then you start
like we would go places. Man, there was no bloods,
(07:11):
there was no cribs, and now they blooding and cripping,
damn it like us in Denmark.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Ye, yeah, you know what I'm saying, but really it's everywhere.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
But it was a lifestyle that we enjoy and we
did it and it was like, oh, we're doing for
us right and the world. The world accepted it, you
know what I'm saying. But we didn't change correct for
the world.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
That's what and that's exactly where I am. I don't
need to chase the sound. I don't need to do
what's current. I just need to do what I do
really well. I just couldn't leave my legacy at twenty twelve.
I feel like I owe my audience this record.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
Alrighty the kingmaker himself West Coast Oridge and now we
got missed the X two di zea exhibit in the neighborhood.
Hey man, I'm going to run some names past your
ex and just briefly what they mean to you.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Those kind of things, you know, Doctor.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Dre growing up being a fan first and then meeting
the man, and then him being able to embrace what
I was doing and put it into his creative process.
To me will always be the life changing experience that
I'll always give that regard. On the side of that,
you know, Andre Young, the man is very inspirational to me.
(08:44):
Seeing what he's been through through his challenges has been
a lesson in itself. To be able to speak to him,
call them, have these conversations personal and professional is always
going to be appreciated. And I love that dude. Snoop
dog Snoop Dogg is the mother man. You know what
I'm saying, Like most popular on the planet man snoo.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
People don't even rapper Snoop Dogg. They just say Snoop Dogg. Yeah, Snoop.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
You know.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
To see what he's what he's been through as well,
and his staying power, he's really hard working behind the scenes.
He's always him unapologetically and you know, I'm glad I
was able to make the things happen that I have
been able to make happen with him, and you know,
and to still see him going. I know people gave
(09:33):
him a lot for the performance he did with the
you know, crypto, but you can't cancel Snoop Dogg. You
know what I'm saying, Like, regardless of his reasoning or
why or how he did it, that's his reason, right,
and he don't have to explain that to you.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
And my thing is this man.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
People would ask me about it X and I'm like, man,
I haven't talked a dog about it, So I'm not
gonna talk to you.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I don't need to.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
I don't really have to clear And he didn't have
to call me like, b this is what I'm doing,
you know. And my thing is this man, Like there's
so many deposits, you know what I'm saying, if you
look at something as a withdrawal, Okay, there's.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
So many things that he does that he doesn't get
recognized for and don't want to and and and there's
and he's changed lives not only from his arranging from
his football team. But look at the testament of a
of a of a man is his children. Look at
how powerful and driven Cordell is, you know what I'm saying,
Like graduating from business school and then coming back to
(10:31):
his father and building these big not these ain't just
like oh we're gonna iron some stuff on a T
shirt and sell it at his shows. These are corporate
moves that are not easy to navigate, and he's doing
it like his you know, with his shirt off.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
You know you're drinking, put.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
His shirt on you you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
But he's making it look effortless and that's really dope.
And so that's how I feel about Snoop and what
he's done. And I'm very proud to call him my friend.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Eminem Marshall Marshall Mathers.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Yeah, okay, So you see rappers and then you see legends, right,
Eminem is a legend. There will always be a place
for him in the history books of this thing of ours.
When you say a savant when it comes to hip
hop and how he appreciates and it loves it. He
feels the same way I do that hip hop saved
(11:22):
my life and I will always, you know, give my
one hundred and ten percent. And when I don't feel
like that, I'm not gonna do it. So I feel
like Marshall has claimed his spot in hip hop royalty.
He's had the same people around him since the beginning. Yeah, man,
And that speaks volumes as well, Eminem Marshall Mathers, that's
the homie Nate dog Nate Dogg. I miss him, Yeah,
(11:43):
I miss him. There will never be another. Nate Dogg
is one of a kind. He moved the coast first
and then he moved the world, ye man, and he's
on cubes at best. It ain't a hit until Nate
Dogg singing. King and the King T in alcoholics. I
wouldn't be here without King T. As many accolades that
(12:04):
I give Doctor Trey for the trajectory of my success,
I wouldn't have that opportunity if King T hadn't given me.
The first one that was the first time I wrapped
on anything was King T's fourth album Freestyle, Getting Maam
From there, I got signed to Loud Records, and so yeah, man,
I feel like my journey has been very unique and
I wouldn't do it any other way.
Speaker 3 (12:24):

car explosion. He goes in there's a performance in your car, Like, man,

pick up the dollar and I'm walking past where the
guys are repelling off the room and the car spins in.
If you really look at at that scene, the car
hits a guy and it goes flying in the air
and he lands and then he gets up and starts running.
(15:43):
That's the only way that we were able to use
the shot because he got up and started running, thank god.
But if you look at that video again, there's a
cop car that spins in and hits a guy and
he's flying in the air.
