Mike Proctor 3:14
Man, we are now kind of like, we’re talking such a crazy language. I feel like these days,
Ty 3:19
I went to the park to play basketball to a park I used to play I played at this park called ferris Park. It’s in downtown Lansing. and it’s like, literally two blocks from Lansing Community College. Okay, and I went back
Mike Proctor 3:34
Oh, Bro, I think I know where that is.
Ty 3:35
Yeah, I played there for like, since I was played there from the time I was 12 years old. At the time, I was about 24 or 23. somewhere around there. That kind of like stopped playing out outside at the park as much and I stopped playing for like three years. And then I finally go back up to the park and then everybody talking I’m just listening to the young I call him my young dog. It was a it was like people that were like they’re like eight or nine when I was on the court you know and I was the face of the court they were eight or nine or six or seven I was gonna say when

Mike Proctor 4:24
but man the language these kids use. It’s
Ty 4:28
you hear it at a young age and it ages as they they be so close to the core is like they pick up our language that we’re saying when we’re playing the sport and we’re in an intense moment or an intense situation
Mike Proctor 4:41
and you’re just you’re just reacting
Ty 4:43
you react a pickup off of that and may feed into it and when they grow older, you know their anger feeds into in you is ridiculous.

Ty 9:11
Yes, i did.
Mike Proctor 9:12
as you’re growing up, you know, when you’re a young man. What did you want to be when you when you got older? And I want to go back as far as you can remember from you know, when you were like a young young kid
Ty 9:23
when I was very young. All I wanted to be was a football player, a football player. As I got older, I want to be with a basketball player. Yeah. And then when I got into high school, I’m like, I just want to make it. I don’t care what I do. To make it just go away. Yeah, I can’t be in this situation. I mean, like how I was raised, I didn’t like any situation how I was raised. And my Nana, the one that passed away down in Tennessee. She passed away to go to work, and she’s supposed to be come back to give me for good to move down to Tennessee, she had a heart attack on the way you know like how How old was she? He’s like 44……42 Yeah, yeah. That was like six, seven. Hey, I was siitin on the steps waiting all day, my uncle came in the door and I’m like, wait a minute. You don’t usually come pick me up.

And my mom and my dad aint together. Yeah, right. they never was. I think they work for like, two months. Something like that.
Mike Proctor 10:59
Um, when you were how young were you when you start playing football.
Ty 11:05
When I first tried to play football, it’s funny story.
Because I knew I was in like I said, my age and my size never measured up when I was growing up. Like, I was like, I’d be like, seven years old. What I look like I’m five. like tiny. Your small. head is big. I got a seven year old head or a five year old body.
Mike Proctor 11:34
Young book. You got a big ass.
Ty 11:37
And what happened was, my mom was like, Alright, I’m finally gonna let you go play football. So you can stop bugging me. And I was like, I was I was seven years old. Actually, I was like six and a half. You know, but I was seven
Mike Proctor 11:52
playing little little league. Did you play flag? No, I play.
Ty 11:57
I try to play. I try to play helmet. Yeah. And I went, and I went to the tryouts and I made the team and they really wanted me to play. They was like, yo, He’s really good. We need we need to we need you know, and then I went to go get fitted for a helmet and Johnny max. And dude pretty much told my mom like, yeah, a fits the helmet. But his neck isn’t gonna support the head is gonna provide pretty much he’s too small.
Xad 12:27
That’s funny.
Ty 12:30
So I had to wait till I was like 10 years old to finally start playing football. I contact football. So what happened was I didn’t play. When I was seven. I was like, bummed out. And I went home and I have my neighbor. He’s like my best friend. His name’s AJ, like, he’s Hobbs. Shout out to him. He we always play football in St. Me, him and his brothers. So his dad was like coach of a flag football team. Nice. Yeah. So he finally came to my mom and was like, yo, like, because he kept asking my mom Ty plan this year is Ty plan this year? And she’s like, well, he can’t play because you know, his heads to his neck. The way she was finally told her like no, I coach flag football coach contact. And then she was like, Well, if you want to take them you can take them. So he finally took me and he Loki was taken me a couple games before he even asked. And I played it in the first game and like five touchdowns first. Like Yeah, when his son was averaging like three touchdowns a game.
The second game I played I score seven touchdowns and he was like, Okay, I need you to play. And then we played like, we were in this like tournament. We play we won the first two games in the third game. We played against like some sixth graders. We were only fourth graders. I’m like, Yeah, he’s like, yo, you can do it.
Mike Proctor 14:04
You guys got it?
Ty 14:05
And he’s like, you guys got it. Right. He’s you guys got we were sitting there like, yo, they like two sizes bigger. Guys, kid you think sizes you’re thinking? Yeah, two sizes bigger there extra large? were Medium.We only lost one we lost by a touchdown. Now that was crazy. I was like, well,
Mike Proctor 14:29

Ty 14:33
scored and not that we want. You I know we lost but you score and almost one. I’m like, Ha, we lost my touchdown. I’m like, okay, whatever
Mike Proctor 14:48
So, man that’s it’s That’s crazy. You How was high school for football for you? What what position Did you play school? Okay. Because when once you get into high school, that’s when it’s you know, you’re really Forming into probably what you know what your mold would be. What uh, what position did you play?
Ty 15:08
I’m have to go with various. This is why I have to say that because freshman year I play quarterback. Hmm I like quarterback in free safety then sophomore year, same quarterback free safety, but it didn’t play too much defense. I pretty much was just quarterback. Yep. No, I was quarterback and inside linebacker. I was like the fourth string quarterback. I feel like that’s usually how it goes. The second string inside linebacker. Hmm, mind you. I was like, three sizes smaller than I am. And if anybody’s listening im only extra large.
I’m like, sweating brain with muscles.
Mike Proctor 15:55
61
Ty 15:56

Screw Jackson’s turf. Yeah, we hearse with Jackson. Yeah, they had that sticky turf day and it gets hot. It starts sticking us running down on kickoff after halftime and my leg hyper extended. Oh, instead of you know, you know running your leg bends forward? Mine’s went backward. Yeah.
Mike Proctor 16:54
Dude that fucking sucks.
it is, for those of you guys that are listening. He just basically made like a circle is just like it did not look like it would it would fucking feel good at all. It’s like It’s like as if your
Ty 17:11
foot doesn’t come off the ground. But your legs. Yeah, you know that continues to move.
Xad 17:17
Yeah, your knee stays in one spot. Whole body keeps going the other way. Just right there. Yeah to him.
Mike Proctor 17:22

I blew my knee completely out. Sr. I came back in basketball season finished basketball season. And we lost in a district championship game. We should have won, we lost. And then I went and play baseball. Because I played baseball sophomore year after basket is pretty fun. So that’s why I played senior. And then I ended up going on Olivet College. Therefore a year playing baseball. No I did football basketball and track track because freshman year I did track instead of baseball. I kind of switched up my sports a little bit but I played those sports those main sports

Mike Proctor 29:27

Mike Proctor 30:10
I’m saying bro, like, you know what boring shit.
Ty 30:14
Yeah, I love to watch that.
Mike Proctor 30:16
I’m football junkie.
Ty 30:17
That was gay cuz we add a force like we we had a half of a season but it felt like a full season because there’s only like, we played three teams but we played everybody twice.
Mike Proctor 30:26
I want to ask how many games you played? So you played six games?
Ty 30:29
Yeah, cuz those are COVID Yeah, usually we play like 10 to 12 play everybody like twice.
Mike Proctor 30:40
So do you get paid? Or do you have to pay to play
Ty 30:45
now you pay you have to pay and you make it so far, people started looking at you and you get scouted to go pay for like, Canadian football? Like those little leagues like Premier League football

he’s a hell of a marketer. I think he can make I think he can make it work.
Ty 31:24
Yeah. Big Dwayne Johnson fan.
Mike Proctor 31:26
yeah. Um, I think that’s fucking sweet hope the XFL we had when we started this podcast. Yep. The xfl was kicked off. And like when the last one when it just went down. And me and Xad that we all set up a bracket. We all picked a team and shit and then fucking COVID happened and shut down.
Xad 31:45
New York guardians. That was my team.
Mike Proctor 31:47
Yeah, I think I went with LA I had Josh Johnson.
Ty 31:50
I like that Vegas team. It kind of sucked.
Mike Proctor 31:53
But wait, which the XFL team?
Ty 31:56
Yeah. I don’t know. Like, black and gray team.
Xad 32:01
The black and gray team was I think the New York guardians man.
Ty 32:04
That was the gaurdians?
Xad 32:05
the guardians had some pretty badass jerseys.
A musta was just been playing him
Mike Proctor 32:09

Mike Proctor 32:25
Yeah, that was it was fun football though. I love watching football, man. So what do you play for the Crusaders? What position?
Ty 32:33
I was playing I play receiver and like outside linebacker.
Mike Proctor 32:38
No shit. That’s awesome. Man. Did you have a pretty good season?
Ty 32:42
I went undefeated.
Mike Proctor 32:43
What was your? Did you have good stats? What kind of offense?
Ty 32:46
my stats Not necessarily.
Mike Proctor 32:49
Stats don’t always reflect Yeah, the full story.
Ty 32:52
Well, depends which game you reflect today. So again, I didn’t play a lot due to either, you know, the way coaching was going or attitude or injury but most the time is probably injury. Because I was nursing a shoulder injury this year. Then it kind of sucked. But I got through it. And I made the tackle to send us to the championship. Hey, oh, yeah, I saved the district championship game up. Yeah, the district championship game. I mean, the division, I’m sure but the division championship game. last played a game I’m thinking it’s third down. But it’s fourth down. Oh shit. No,
Xad 33:36
It happened to tom brady the other night.
Ty 33:39
Quarterback says hut goes right. On one. I’m on his right side. On my right outside linebacker. Okay. I go. I have my receiver had to slide. He went on a slant inside. So I picked him up on my hands on him following him inside. And the quarterback. I don’t know the pocket must have broke down or something. But he came back my way. Yeah, because he tried to scramble for the first down. Now the first now was on the three yard line. there on the eight yard. Touchdown is in a touchdown. And so he’s scrambling. Coming to the right, I’m going back to the right. I look over I noticed him take off. I noticed my defensive end is getting blocked in front of me. And there was a receiver coming straight down the line making a beeline at me trying to hit a block on me.
I threw him off me got around him.
And the defensive end couldn’t get off his block. So it was me and a quarterback. I locked eyes with the quarterback. And he came straight at me. And I just dove at him. His hip made him flip a game over No first down.
Xad 35:01
made him flip
Mike Proctor 35:02
you want you went low on him and took him out.
Ty 35:04
I made him flip his on video clips on YouTube. Yeah, dude. And then we beat that team. That was the third time we beat that team.
Xad 35:16
So you so you ran you ran the table against the e so you beat him every single time you saw them.
Ty 35:21
Yeah, we played him in the playoffs. So that was the third time you knows the played the final straw and beat him three times. Then we played this Michigan that Northern Michigan or Greater Michigan wolves, whatever you want to call them. We played them. They were talking stuff. We want like that as we got the rings. They agree they went home
Mike Proctor 35:43
your defensive guy for the most part.
Ty 35:45

Mike Proctor 36:09
Is that’s the fun part. Yeah. It’s easy. It’s what I do, man
Ty 36:14
is I like playing corner too. That’s my original defensive position. When I was playing with the Crusaders was corner. And then they moved me from corner to outside linebacker. That is the first year. We’re because I play with them. Now it’s 23 to 24, which was the first year that they came out and I play with them that year. Then their next year. I didn’t play then this year, but it’s crazy. I ended the first year is how it started this. Yeah. Like, you got to storyline shit.

Mike Proctor 56:24
Yes. Oh, you don’t know how to fucking do this, huh? Now you need me. So what are you working on anything right now, bro, what you’re working on?
Ty 56:39
Do we have a project I’m working on right now?
Yeah, no shit. Can you tell us about it? Do you wanna tell us about it? Okay, it’s another got a nice little album. I’m working on. Called Wiz3Mob. Um, why I go by wiseguy tie. Okay, so, wise mob is pretty much like my fan base. Like all my people. Okay, so I guess but pretty much like an entitlement to them. My appreciation. My gratitude. Like how I feel, or you know, saying stuff that I’ve been through. I’m talking about all that in the album. And I should be. Oh, no, I’m trying to still figure out a release date for it. Possibly in February. Or maybe to New Year Who knows? It is pretty much like his par is partially done. I just got a piece it together.
Mike Proctor 57:31
how long you’ve been working on it?
Ty 57:33
About a month? Oh, hell yeah. Dude. I hit studio and did like five songs in a month. I was going slow. Oh, yeah. Very slow. Easily I can get in here and get like three songs in in the night and it’s only two hours. I free I record two songs in an hour. I still don’t like fully doing that with with with a beat already. It makes like master so you you just go knock out the lyrics and the engineer makes the recipe.
Mike Proctor 58:06
Oh shit. Okay,
Xad 58:07
so then he throws he throws the Beat after you you write your lyrics or
Ty 58:12
no I saw this. I got a DJ my DJ.
Yeah. He has his beat and hell send it to me.
And I’ll take it into the studio.
Xad 58:22
Listen to it.
Ty 58:23
My engineer will pretty much record you know, say I’m he’s I’m recording myself. But he’s doing all the
Xad 58:31
mixing.
Ty 58:33
He’s timing and mastering the song.
You paid him to mix it master song.
Xad 58:40
So when when you’re writing lyrics, um, are you do you listen to the beat and then apply the lyrics to that? Or do you kind of come up with just the lyrics initially and then find the beat that kind of matches that and then change your tempo to fit
Ty 58:55
was weird cuz when I first started rapper I didn’t rap to no beat.
Mike Proctor 58:59
