Yeah, I am Mr. Don Trippin
0:10
Right now you're tuned into All Hip Hop. All right. You are now tuned into All Hip Hop with Don Jr. Yeah
0:17
So let's jump into this. This year has been a really great year for you
0:22
Indeed, indeed. It's been fun. I'm gonna say. So we know you've been dropping music every month
0:27
So far. This year. Not quite. It kind of happened how it happened
0:33
You know, I'm a person that, well, at least now I kind of go with the flow more say
0:38
I don't try to sit and perfect everything now. So you know, one month turned into two and then, you know, two turned into nine so far. So
0:48
OK, so I don't know if y'all know, but we have a legend right here
0:53
Oh, indeed. I appreciate that. I put you in the same bracket as like J. Cole and the Kendrick Lamars
0:59
Oh, that's you. Yeah, I can dig that. I appreciate that. You're not mainstream though
1:03
Right, right. Which is a good thing. I mean, there's nothing wrong with not being mainstream. No, not at all
1:07
My pockets do not complain. Right. Y'all hear that? He gets the money
1:11
So I want to know. OK. Like, how do you come up with your lyrical, you know, metaphors? I don't know, life
1:15

5:23
I learned how to write. I learned how to write. I learned how to write. I learned how to write
5:27
I grew up listening to like Jadakiss, Jay-Z, LL Cool J, Ja Rule, man it's an endless list
5:34
I pretty much just listened to everything I could get my hands on
5:39
At some point I could, as I grew up I could relate more to certain things than other things
5:47
So some of the music stuck, some of it I listened to when I was younger, not so much growing up. Okay
5:55
I want to just back up a little. Okay. You said Three 6 Mafia. Indeed
5:59
So I noticed you have a song called Project Pac. Yeah, yeah
6:03
Project Pac is a person, well I know Project Pac personally. And he, man I don't really know how you would describe Project Pac
6:13
Project Pac is the kind of person that, like I've never seen him in a bad mood
6:18
I've never seen him have to like react to something. But you can tell just by how he is on a daily basis that he's a serious person. Okay
6:28
And he always embraced me, even when the name Don Tripp didn't mean anything
6:33
He always showed love. And even when I see him now, it's a mutual thing
6:38
And my level of respect for Project Pac is astronomical. And that's one of them people that, no matter, it's always a pleasure to see him
6:48
Either way, I did a show a few weeks ago. Might not have been a few weeks ago, might have been like a week or two
6:54
Either way, I did a show not too long ago, and I wasn't expecting to run into Project Pac. Okay
7:00
And he just happened to be there. He was on the same bill. And even that, you know, just running into him is always a pleasure
7:07
And he's one of them people that, as far as like Memphis music, Project Pac is a man
7:14
Project Pac is truly a pioneer. Yes, he is. If nobody, you know, give him his flowers, I think he definitely deserves it from Memphis
7:21
I don't think I would exist if it wasn't for Project Pac. So are there any legends that's from Memphis that you haven't worked with yet that you would like to work with, you know, in the future
7:32
Well, I don't have like a bucket list of people to work with
7:36
But it's people that I consider legendary that I haven't worked with, that I'm more than willing to work with
7:43
Speaking of which, Frazier Boy from Three Six. Well, I don't know
7:47
You know, they got a lot of names. I don't know which part of which they supposedly belong to
7:53
But Frazier Boy is a person I actually owe him a feature
7:59
But I think I got records with just about everybody. Maybe Player Fly is probably one of the few people I don't have a record with
8:09
But, you know, I'm more than willing to work with. I don't know how active Fly is right now with new music
8:17
But, you know, he fit in that same boat for me. You know, he's a pioneer too
8:23
Yes, he is. So I understand that you're a dad. Indeed. So my question would be, how do you juggle being a rapper and a dad at the same time
8:34
I just never stopped being a dad. I just stopped being a rapper
8:38
You know, when the cameras go off, when the microphone is unplugged
8:42
and, you know, the rap is not there. I don't rap at home
8:46
I don't rap. Sometimes I record at home. But, I mean, you know, I don't
8:51
My whole day, my whole existence is in music. So parenting kind of comes first, even if my kid's not with me
9:00
That's top priority. And at this point, I rap so I can provide as a father
9:07
So I think that kind of helps juggle it. But I separate the two
9:12
Like if I'm moving around from out and about, if I'm moving with my guys
9:16
then I'm more than willing to take pictures. I don't do them
9:23
Some people want you to FaceTime and talk to their auntie and their little cousin
9:27
I don't do all that. But, you know, I'm more than eager to take a picture with a fan or write an autograph
9:34
or something like that. When I got the kids, there ain't no time for none of that
9:38
Because in real time, with children, like I said a second ago, children are curious
9:42
So the last thing I would want to happen is to be focused on this fan who's
9:46
trying to take a picture or don't want to tell me how much they love whatever
9:51
Why are we doing that? What are my kids doing? I could turn her in the parking lot
9:56
You know, it's a lot of I don't really want to jinx it
10:00
But it's a lot of that could go south real fast. And it would be my fault because I wasn't paying attention
10:05
I was paying attention to this, you know, in real time. It's a complete stranger
10:10
So when I don't got the kids, then, you know, I could be accessible there
10:17
But when I got the kids, whether you see me or not, we can be out and about. And, you know, sometimes there'd be places where, you know
10:24
it's a once in a lifetime thing. I would probably never be in that space again
10:28
You know, you wouldn't run into me again. And that just is what it is
10:32
So when it comes down to your kids, because it sounds like you're a really great dad
10:37
I appreciate that. I want to know if, like, there's a certain type of music that you allow your kids to listen to
10:42
and not listen to. Of course. I don't let them listen to vocal music, vulgar music
10:50
It's a lot of it out. So, you know, it's not the easiest thing to avoid
10:56
And for the most part, I encourage them to listen to clean edits of whatever it is
11:01
that they listen to. Now, when they're not with me, I can't, you know, there's no way for me to dictate what they listen to
11:07
I can only hope that, you know, that whatever it is that they're listening to
11:12
that they understand what they're listening to, if this makes any sense
11:17
So, you know, when it's a vocal record, once certain words are mentioned
11:21
then my kids know, you know, at least for the most part
11:25
to turn away from whatever that record is. But, again, you know, some of my children's mothers, you know, feel differently about different things
11:36
So I don't really know what they listen to when they're not with me, but when they are with me, you know, we keep it clean
11:42
And I don't know one of them people that, like I said, it means something to me
11:47
for you to understand what you're listening to. So if you're listening to a record, you know, I don't like name dropping
11:56
So, you know, if we're listening to a record and it's a street record, then, you know, me and my son are going to have a conversation
12:02
Do you understand what they're saying? A lot of times you're not really saying anything other than, you know, the negative part of it
12:09
Or, you know, the part that's supposed to be fun. Right. So, you know, we have a conversation about it, you know
12:14
This song says this, this, and this, but do you understand what they're saying
12:18
And if you do, do you understand what happens if this is how you actually live? Right
12:23
A lot of times music is, you know, a lot of times they leave too much out of it
12:27
It's like now music is like watching a trailer when it's, you know
12:32
it's supposed to be like watching a movie. They leave so much of the truth out of it, or they leave a lot of the facts out
12:42
And for kids, the last thing I want, like I grew up, when I was a teenager
12:48
like the Columbine thing happened. And a lot of the people in the media blame rap music
12:55
Like the kids were supposed to listen to some kind of rap. Whatever albums they were supposed to be listening to, the media started targeting the artists
13:05
But in real life, I didn't force you to do anything. And that's the last excuse I want to ever make
13:10
So, you know, when they're listening to music, I make sure I'm as involved as possible
13:15
Because I can't say rap music made you do it. In real time, I know better than that because rap ain't never made me do anything
13:22
So do your kids know that you're a rapper? Yeah, they fully aware. They are fully aware
13:29
So do they have any favorite songs about you? Individually, they like certain things
13:36
For the most part, they like when their names get mentioned. If it's a song and their name pop out, then that's their favorite record until another one is
13:46
So, you know, I love it. I don't mention them for that purpose
13:51
But, you know, it's fun to see. My eight-year-old loves the song Two Magazines because she named it in the song
14:01
Two Magazines, clearly I'm talking about firearms. So it's funny to see
14:07
That's one of her favorite songs. Right, right. Of course. Okay, so you have been doing a lot of great things within your community
14:18
So I noticed that you work with the youth back in Memphis
14:23
And then you also have a few investments on top of that within, you know, clothes, real estate
14:30
But I just want to know, would you ever venture off into like the fast food chain
14:35
No, I'm afraid of stuff like that. I know like 99 percent of restaurants fail the first year
14:44
Food is not, I don't know, it's just that's one of the risks I just ain't willing to take
14:50
It's a lot come with that. And I don't know, that's just one of the things I'm afraid of
14:56
Just about everything else, you know, I'm willing to try, but just not
15:00
I don't want to have no kind of restaurants. Now I would do maybe like, like I do, like invest in a food chain maybe
15:11
But nothing that would like directly tie me to it. Like I would own a Chick-fil-A or something
15:17
But I wouldn't have like a Christopher's restaurant. I ain't going that far into it
15:23
I mean, see me, I wanted to own a Church's Chick-fil-A. A Church's, okay
15:28
Just like I eat all the biscuits. Oh, okay. I don't think you're going to make much money if you're eating all of your inventory
15:33
But that's interesting. Right. So, I mean. My guy, Charlie, loves Church's. Okay
15:40
Yes, Church's is really good. So, I mean, what about you? Do you like Church's
15:45
Because they come with the biscuits now. Now, be for real. I haven't had Church's since I was broke
15:50
I ain't been broke in a long time. So, it's been a while since I had Church's
15:55
Yeah, it's been a long time. He's like, no, I don't do no Church's
16:00
You must eat healthy. I don't know if you can call it healthy. But, it ain't just food
16:07
But, for me, I don't like to do anything that reminds me of darker moments in my life that make any sense. Okay
16:24
It's not that, you know, Church's didn't do nothing to me, of course
16:28
But, when I was broke, that's all I could afford. So, eating Church's, that's what it take me back to
16:33
It take me back to that space. So, you know, I don't do
16:38
I don't eat cold cuts because that's what I had to eat when I was broke. Oh, okay
16:42
So, you know. Now, when I say broke, I mean like, you know, when you got a scrape
16:46
I don't mean like, you know, you spend all your money on bills kind of broke. You know, a lot of us are broke in that sense
16:52
I mean, like, we didn't have nothing. So, a lot of things
16:56
You know, I try not to be put back in that mind frame if that make sense at all
17:02
Yeah, it makes sense. You just don't want to be brought to that, you know, memories
17:06
Right, exactly. Those weren't happy times. I want to stay as optimistic as possible
17:12
Okay, nothing is wrong with that. Also, I'm about to bring you all the way back
17:17
I'll be all the way back to 2006. Oh, I don't know if I remember 2006
17:22
He's like, oh, wait, hold on. It's 2023. You trying to go to 2006
17:26
Yes, I'm trying to. Okay, what happened in 2006? Well, you had a group that you formed called The Camp
17:32
The Camp? Yes, a rap group that you had with other individuals that you created in 2006
17:39
You might be referring to Notch. I don't know, 2006, you got me
17:43
I don't think I, you got to, it's called The Camp. Well, okay, so I might be pronouncing it wrong, but you had a group that you created
17:53
Do you remember that? A rap group. Other than Notch, that's why I said it would have to be that
17:58
Okay, than Notch. So what made you go solo, and how was it like creating that group
18:04
Well, I ain't quite, that's a little earlier than 2006. But, you know what, I think you're talking about, I want to say there was a title of one of the tapes or something, The Camp. Okay
18:22
But that was a group from high school, and early on it was fun to, you know, I guess to work with people that loved doing what I loved doing
18:34
But in high school, this was more of a hobby. It was an activity
18:41
So we all kind of had that in common that we all enjoyed rapping
18:45
And at some point, as life progressed, this became my life. Instead of it just being what we do when we having fun, it became what I did at all times
18:56
It became the, it was my career choice. You know, I was on a path
19:02
And I don't think any other person shared, well, you know, from that point in time, I don't think any of them shared that same aspiration
19:09
And I guess that's what drove, you know, that's what drove me solo
19:16
The fact that I, it was no longer a mutual ambition. I became the only one who was interested in progressing in it
19:28
And at some point, at some point, you know, people say all the time, everybody can't come with you
19:33
Man, that's basically what it was. We all grew into different things
19:38
I don't quite know what they all decided to do in life, but music became what my life was
19:43
And I wouldn't stop until I got where I was going. And even now, you know, I'm in a greater place than I've ever been
19:50
But I'm still not, you know, I know we cut the brake line a long time ago
19:55
Well, I'm happy you didn't give up. And then you kept going because we wouldn't have your, you know, musical talent
20:01
I appreciate it. So you kept going. Yeah. So also this year you have 55 million streams
20:09
I didn't know that. Yes, that's a lot of streams. That talks volumes on top of that
20:16
You know what I'm saying? Yeah, that's pretty cool. Yeah, that is, that is
20:21
So let's talk about, you know, your single that you have, Mama's Revenge. Yeah
20:28
Mama's Revenge is a record, like when I create records, sometimes I don't have an idea in mind
20:33
Words just come out, then we name it later. Mama's Revenge is one of them records
20:39
You know, like I said, I've been through a lot of adversity, I guess, in life
20:45
And through all of it, I guess sometimes you got to like sit back and reflect and see how we got to, you know, to certain spaces
20:53
And through all of it, I think, I think my mama, I think she deserves more credit
21:01
Not, I'm not saying that I don't give her credit. I don't mean it in that sense
21:07
I feel like, like the world owes her more credit. But, you know, I feel like the only way you could see that is for me to highlight it first
21:18
And, you know, she had to endure things I don't know if I could have been able to, you know, to overcome
21:26
And, you know, I'm not a woman, so having, you know, having two children by the time you're 18 is a whole other world for you, especially as a single parent
21:36
Especially when, you know, when the odds are stacked against you. So, you know, I wanted to kind of showcase that in a sense and, and I guess reward her, so to speak. Okay
21:51
You know, you know, we've been through a lot. And even so, like a lot of what I'm doing, I do it because she didn't have any help
21:59
So, you know, I get to, you know, to say, you know, we overcame certain, certain adversities
22:07
And, you know, we're here and it was a lot of people that didn't have a back that, you know, that might pretend to have my back
22:16
And, you know, it was like saying, you know, I know I ain't in the dark about it
22:21
I'm an adult. I'm fully aware of the circumstances and past prior situations
22:27
And, you know, I don't forgive or forget. So that was basically what I was saying
22:32
You know, some of this is because of what my mama went through. Okay
22:36
Well, let's give mama her flowers because she did a good job. Indeed
22:40
Well, I appreciate it. It sounds like, like you just stated, she was a single mom. Indeed
22:45
So she must have worked all the time. Yeah, she worked quite a bit
22:49
It was times she had two and three jobs sometimes. Okay. So, yeah, that was, you know, that was something
22:58
And I wanted to make sure that, you know, she knew that I still appreciated it. Okay
23:07
That's what's up. I like that. Also, you just got a distribution deal with Connect Music
23:15
Let's talk about that. Well, we started, I want to say we sat and we worked it out in like December, I want to say
23:25
And when I sat down with them, it's a lot of things that they do that I'm not really, I ain't used to having the access to
23:33
So us sitting down, I would love to say that I'm an artist they weren't used to operating with and vice versa
23:44
The company or the kind of artist they weren't used to operating with and vice versa
23:49
They the kind of company I wasn't used to operating with as well
23:53
And we just meshed. They, you know, it's truly team ball. Like, you know, they show up for just, you know, for everything and they deliver
24:06
That's more than you can ask for from any entity of people
24:10
And so far it's been great. We've been running. And when I sat and I told them I was, you know, I was going to pump out music in the rate I've been pumping it out
24:21
You know, I think it sounded, it sounded fantastic. And the true meaning of fantastic, you know, fantastic means unbelievable
24:30
It's so, so outrageous that it's unbelievable. I think it was the same thing
24:35
I think it sounded fantastic, but nothing further than that. And, you know, once I started delivering, they started delivering as well
24:42
So it's been it's been beautiful. But that's a good thing because a lot of companies are not too like fully invested in
24:50
Yeah, a lot of a lot of companies say one thing and do the opposite. Right
24:55
It's great to be in a space where, you know, they do what they say and mean what they say
24:59
So also you have an album that you just dropped. It's called 1207 James Street. Indeed
25:06
It has peaked number 15 on iTunes. So what? Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah. Yes
25:13
Well, I don't pay attention to the numbers. I want to become that person. Like, you know, you start doing that
25:18
You start chasing it. You go. Now we're going in the studio to make music like the last thing, because the last thing was successful
25:26
I want to go in like that. I don't want it to ever be about that for me. So I don't know
25:31
I think I enjoy being able to create freely. I don't really want nothing to interfere with or dictate, you know, what direction I go in
25:40
Well, I want to know because that's the address. 1207 James Street. Right
25:45
So what's the importance behind that address? Well, a second ago we were talking about Church's Chicken
25:50
That's back when I was eating Church's Chicken. Okay. It was like a walking distance
25:55
The block had a few restaurants we could access on foot. But that was the point in my life
26:03
Well, possibly one of the darkest moments in my life. We didn't have much
26:08
My mama, I want to say, I don't think she had two jobs around that time
26:17
We lived in South Memphis. We lived in a shotgun duplex. It was extremely small
26:23
It was narrow. And it was five of us in one house
26:29
Well, it wasn't a house. So five of us in half of a house
26:33
And it was like a moment in time where I was less fortunate
26:41
Probably the most less fortunate. And as I grew up, as I matured, that's always been like a staple in my mind
26:53
That lets me know. You know, they say, never forget where you come from
26:57
That's always my reminder. And you say I'd nightmarish. Like, you know, I would wake up and we would still be there
27:02
And, like, that was my drive. That was my motivation to make sure that I never
27:10
Like, you know, I know that in real time I wouldn't wind up in the same duplex
27:15
But that was always my motivation to make sure I'm never in that space to be that low again
27:22
And, again, like I said, you know, mama did the best she could with what she had
27:26
So, you know, there wasn't like no shot at her in no shape, form or fashion
27:31
I think she'd agree that, you know, we've come a long way from 1207 James
27:36
So did your family end up buying that house? No, no. I don't think nobody has aspirations of doing such
27:43
That's not a. That's not a. Ideal investment
27:53
I get the real estate thing, you know, you're looking at it from that aspect
27:58
But. Even in my music, I know that, like the basis of my music is, you know, me motivating or encouraging people to go and get paid
28:09
So in that sense, money would be the most important thing. But
28:15
Not so much when it comes to like if I if I own a property, I need the property to be
28:22
The best living space. OK. I want to own a property just so I can charge somebody rent
28:28
That's a different thing. So in that sense, I would have no interest in purchasing the property
28:34
But I doubt anybody I know. I want to say somebody told us that they just bought it like a random people
28:41
Once I put the album out, people DM me and chime in to him
28:45
All kinds of things. I don't want to know. So. Oh, so you brought the property value up
28:50
No, I think somebody bought it before. I put that put that tape out
28:54
But I don't think I don't think I can bring the property value up over there
29:01
So I think that that would have to be some more. I got to make some great renovations to bring that
29:06
They nothing I could say is going to do it. So also, not only are you a rapper
29:13
Indeed, I know you be acting. We know you be acting. No, not not quite
29:18
I don't think I got any acting roles. Oh, well, I got that one cameo that I weren't quite where I was
29:25
A cameo. But I got no lines. I don't think. You said I don't think I got any lines on that
29:32
The only film that I'm can be that I could be recognized in
29:39
I mean, that's still count. You was in it, I guess. But that don't quite count as me acting
29:44
So I wouldn't call that. I would hope nobody credits that is like my acting debut or something
29:49
Because, you know, I don't think I say anything in that. So do you see yourself acting in the future
29:56
I don't know. I am opposed to it. But if ever I venture into that, I want to have to do it right
30:03
Like, you know, go to acting school, acting class. I don't know how you do
30:07
I guess acting coach. But I would want to do it right. I wouldn't want to go about it
30:11
You know, that's one of the things I think, you know, that kind of that kind
30:15
of stuff live forever. So I'm going to want to have acid. Okay
30:19
So also, have you written music for other artists? Because I know you're a writer
30:23
So have you written music for other artists? Of course. All right
30:27
For quite a few people. I just, you know, I'm a ghost writer in the sense in a true sense of being a ghost
30:33
So I don't, you know, I don't promote it or publicize it. Okay
30:39
Also, um, star Lito. I know that I have worked together in the past
30:45
And I noticed last year you guys dropped a project as well
30:49
So, uh, I want to say last step brothers tape was a while ago
30:54
And he's been on quite a few of my current projects. But, um, I don't know what date I'm pretty bad
31:03
Wouldn't come to those dates. So, so do y'all have any future projects that you guys will be dropping soon
31:09
We'll start Lito. We're working on one now. Working on a step brothers for life
31:13
That's a fourth installment of the step brother series. Um, I can't really give it a date
31:20
We don't know. We don't really operate in that sense. We just work and you know, whatever comes from it comes from it. Okay
31:27
Well, we truly appreciate you for coming through. I appreciate y'all for having me
31:32
Thank you. And like I said, he is truly a legend. I don't know if you notice, but like I stated
31:39
you are and I put you in the same bracket as the J. Coles and the Kendra Lamars
31:44
I truly appreciate it. Come with them. I'm sure you'll be coming with it
31:48
You'll be spending some. But I really thank you and appreciate you again
31:52
It was nice having you and it was a pleasure. Same here, same
