In this clip, Kurupt reflects back on how his special weed strain called "Moon Rocks" got started back in 2017. From there, he talks about his marijuana-based company called "Kurupt Exotics," before previewing his kush line. The legendary West Coast rapper also shares his thoughts on the people who are still serving out life sentences for selling weed, before it became legal in several states. To that, the 42-year-old emcee indicates that those people are being treated unfairly, because smoking is weed legal now, by saying, "Cut a n*gga a break, b*tch."

Moving along, Kurupt talks about his friendship with the late Nipsey Hussle, having lived in the same neighborhood and being mentored by Big U. From there, he takes a look back on the day he found out that Nipsey Hussle had been murdered, citing how personal the incident was for him while also underlining the fact that so many people who care about him seem to be dying. As the conversation moves along, the Dogg Pound rapper shares his feelings on the passing of the woman known as "the first lady of Death Row Records," Jewell. He talked about the fact that she practically raised him, during his early years with the record label, because he was just a kid. Lastly, Kurupt speaks on the importance of Big U talking him out of partaking in a shooting, many years ago, stating that his mentor wanted him to focus on his music career so that he could give back to the hood someday.
