Dope ep.🔥Berg is a great story teller. M.Hoffa:"You Got To Learn From Other People's Mistakes Because You Don't Live Long Enough To Make Them all Yourself" Don't let it pass Over your Head🎯👑

the interview effortlessly went full circle, the beginning, the drama, the downfall and the come back, good interview

Love Hitmaka’s story! We watched his growth in the industry. Every interview he does is entertaining and he humble. MEO is getting better with time 🙌🏾

I remember designing his 1st website back in the day as Young Berg. I still got some of the MP3 files sent to put on the site. It was only a few years ago that I realized he was Hitmaka now! Definitely smiling proud to see his transition!

Every episode Math is talking less, and less and less..... He's either learning from his own work or a student of the greats. The best interviewers listen 90% of the time n talk 10.

I've been watching since day 1 and I can honestly say that when Math looks in the camera and said "You have no excuse" I said out loud "this is the one" congratulations on your evolution. 👏

His DMX Stories is like Charlie Murphy True Hollywood Stories Lol

Esso: “How was your day today?” Math: “No, wait, wait! Before we get into that…” 🤦🏾 LOL! Let ‘em speak, Math!

Not to shit on Drink Champs, but you see here Math and the crew didn't need to load anyone up on alcohol to get some shit he never told. The show is "Drink" Champs but Nore be pushing the drinks on them like some date rape drug...like take a sip lmao. This podcast have authentic moments that just develop out of genuine conversations, and Math be on his shit too, like getting the film roll of the events...like what led up to this etc. Base on the no agenda environment, no doubt yall will be in that #1 spot soon for hip hop podcast; two main podcast I fuck with is this and The Pivot.

Hitmaka really a legend on a lot of levels. The doc going to go crazy and ppl going to give him his flowers. A lot of respect for the way he transitioned and found his way based on the way ppl switched on him.

This is a legendary episode. Great story.

This man know he's an inspiration and still stays humble. Learn something people.

I just did research on Spring Creek Academy and there is so many documentaries and articles about how they brutally abused and beaten children for years until being shut down in the late 2000s please bring hit maker back on the show to truly dissect and elaborate on his trauma and experiences there as this may help tons of other kids who've also expressed it well who can relate. please Math Hoffa bring him back to explain more of them

He don’t need a documentary, he need a series. Power style show.

Berg is an old young dude he’s been around a long long time putting in work great interview

Math Hoffa the way that you conduct interviews is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 keep coming with the great content 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

11:22 😂😂😂 math face That's exactly I felt at this point in the interview

This was lit. Shot out Esso aka Mr. Frontal Lobe....LMFAO! Niggaz learn new words and be smart all of a sudden

This session really showed the entire crews growth. Not just Math. Yall figured out how to stop interviewing and start guiding the conversation. This is now the difference btwn MIO and Drink champs. I liked them for the fun but I come to MIO for the insight. #spreadloveisthebrooklynway

Salute berg for maintaining, staying persistent and overcoming all that he did to get to where he is now!! He definitely deserves a documentary n a movie. Such an amazing story. Good shit!! 💪🏽💯

They took the chain but couldn’t take his AMBITION..💯💯BERG A LEGEND Glad They giving him his 💐

Happy to say I've been fw Berg since 2007/08. Never clowned him or what we did & still supporting him as HitMaka to this day 💯

Bigga : “how did ur security get beat up? lol

Yoo Math don’t ever disrespect me dropping 2 episodes in 1 day. 💯

Berg has one of the best math Interviews.

On the real.......... Can we get an Esso interview? Dude is full of info. I know that he got a story to tell.

This is a Great story of determination and perseverance. PEACE and respect to the God.

Back to Back to Back Dope interviews 🔥🔥🔥 MEO best show in Hip Hop.

Just left the royce5’9 one for this😂😂😂 he was using to many words and that damn straw.

I couldn't wait to see this Hitmaka/Berg interview. Thank you Math💯. Btw your Royce interview was very introspective. Y'all asked all the right questions. Salute to the best podcast moving My Expert Opinion💯 PS. The boi ES$O got some heat on his feet🔥

The Dmx story is fucking hilarious 😂

I'm only 24 I was 5 when I caught the berg era the way the media outlets portrayed him to be made Alot of us either dislike or don't follow up on him but when you watch this and hear his story you get a whole different demeanor on bro

This was phenomenal!!! Math... You are great! Hitmaka is a inspiration. Straight up.

Very smart brother! I remember you being with my cuz in the Chi and him saying you was bout to blow up!!! And you Did! And when you was going thru all that Drama and you being from the Chi that Sh*t didn't digest well here, it's like he's 1 of ours no matter what he did don't put your hands on him! But Lil Bruh the way you reinvented yourself and came back Hitting them wit the Hits That's the Greatest revenge!!! Keep prospering Lil Bruh! 💯

That’s how u kne us Chicago niggas 🔥🔥🔥🔥✅ Shoutout Berg Aka Hitmaka!

“The business” was that jam!

He truly rebranded himself better and stronger dope story

Another 🔥 Episode! I Rock with Berg! Salute to Y'all!

amazing interview. had no idea hitmaka had such a crazy story.

Look at bro face at 57:27 math cut him off the whole interview lol

Young Berg changing to Hitmaka is basically his MF DOOM moment lol

Berg was the first Earl Sweatshirt. Crazyyyyy 😭😂

You Know Math Podcast Made It When We Know His "First Time Listening To Jeezy He Woke Up In A Crack Spot" ..Just Like We Know Vlad Story about "He Tried To Buy A Brick And Got Robbed" 😂😂😂MEO Best Podcast

YO MATH !!! a great guest for your show would be Bumpy Knuckles aka Freddie Fox ! 30+ years in the game, and he got CRAZY stories ( he pistol whipped A few rappers lol, I won’t say their names) And he would DEFINITELY agree to be on your show !!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 interview! Glad to see his transition and growth! Looking forward to his documentary, s/o to Hitmaka!

Math got the best channel right now and his team is A1💯💯💯

Interview was fire 🔥

I hope they interview Lloyd Banks, Scott Storch and sooo many more at some point

YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE. UNBELIEVABLE TRUTH KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK 👍🏿 👌🏿 👏🏿

NEEK BUCKS IN THE CUT! slept on artist that brother can RAP!

They never got you, Hell yeah😂😂😂😂😂😂

Damn I never thought I could sit through this interview for two hours and be completely inspired the whole time. 🫶🏻

☀️🍇🖤Hitmaka, you have some fascinating stories. We want to see a movie about your life! You're talent is stunning......your journey is film worthy! Seriously, make it happen! Math, your interviews are unrivaled!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

He had to make his own wave

One thing MOE does that no other podcast does is make me have a new found respect for people that I thought were goofies.

That’s crazy. DMX treated his dogs pups like any other rapper would treat a chain that represented the group. It’s no different when having a dog when that’s what DMX was known for. And you could tell that it was significant because he told Berg to take care of it and always have it with him. A rapper would give a chain to his signee and tell him to move in the same way. It’s really profound more than any piece of jewelry could ever compare to. RIP a Legend 🙏🏾

Bruh sound just like DMX 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Decept and BMW 🤣

Boy lived a helluva life damn

It should be mandatory for Bigga to speak every episode. 💪🏾

@MATH HOFFA what Hitmaka is referring to at @39:34 is a very famous and traumatic kidnapping experiance called an "Elan Snatch", made famous by the Cult/Boarding schools Elan that used to exist for "Tough Love" for "Troubled Kids". Spring Creek Academy definitely got thier game from them. They usually come in the dead of early morning between 2am - 3am let in by the parents, who then lead them into your room where the workers literally wake you up outta your sleep to being hog tied with plastic zip ties, throw you into a painter's van with no windows, and drive you off 12 hours to Maine/Rhode Island/Wyoming/West Virginia/Utah/Montana somewhere secluded . The fact that his own mother helped expidite the process knowing the school's reputation or not, is something i'm not sure I could get past myself. The whole organization and the one's it inspired in the field of "Tough Love Schools" ended up being a complete cesspool of trauma bonding, money racketeering, and cult grooming, resulting in deaths. An incredible documentary about this entre subject can actually be found on KZfaq by Nexpo. I'ts a definite must watch: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bct9atOTmrOZdIk.html . Shit is beyond horrible what they did to them kids. A lot of them now either need life long therapy, or deleted themselves. There's whole Reddits on Elan Schools.

HOFFA!!!! #Legendshit 🙏🏾💯

Lol at “Press 3 and run in the booth”. Shout out to Pro Tools

This nigga Math is becoming a master interviewer. He be asking all the right questions.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 that was a real good interview!!! one of the best interviews i done seen in a whileeee

Yo math keep these interviews coming bro ppl didn't even see what you did hitmaka and royce interview

🗣This an real Chicago classic Ice B💚😤

Just listened to Dogs 4 Life from the movie soundtrack lol.Hitmaka sounded like lil bow wow with more street raps 🤣🤣🤣

This was fire 🔥. I don’t even know the young man by face but knew his music. Nice.

mad respect to berg.. great story

Hitmaka has been to therapy. I can tell because when a black man take advantage of talk therapy they learn to see from various perspectives. ❤

Best interview ever

Like that tink album, salute hitmaka✊🏾 💯more blessings in 23

I real shit loved this interview in its totality. Shit was awesome. He is on age with me so I can relate to the time frames he mention. But Method man is next on the list I love listening to.

Can't wait for the documentary

Yung berg was born to br successful but people and negative energy get in the way

Berg need to get the documentary out I wanna watch that, by far one of the most entertaining stories I've heard in hip-hop it's so different.

Absolutely sick episode, so much to learn from his experiences. This was a epic interview

I met DMX through DJ LS1 and I met LS through DJ Irie in Coconut Grove Miami in an underground club and it was a very humbling experience... We shook hands and he was like pleasure to me you. We were sitting all the way in the VIP in the right corner of the club with with like 5 security and a bunch of pretty hard dudes on top of that.

16:04 Hitmaka just snitched on hip-hop & Rap 😂 Delores C. Tucker would love to hear that.

I'm realizing why Math is so good and why I like the show so much. He is like me. Math is about the details in the story. The crew is still learning that. This is why we see these same artists do interviews but they seem different on MEO. Keep writing these movies MATH! 🔥🔥🔥 #TRUESTORY

Another🔥🔥 conversation. I was today years old when I learned Young Berg and Hitmaka was the same person. And I definitely gotta see the doc when it drops.

Good interview Math

Math the legend 🙏🏽🔥🔥🔥💯✍🏽

1:57:15 harmonious mmhmm for the "no internet crew"

Yo when I first watch this I was tripping like how tf you run from millions to the hood to sell crack n all type of goofy shit but when I really sit back n analyze bro story this is beautiful mans was truly driven to this music shit hell or high water he was willing to go against everything to get it even living comfortable with both parents and millions n look at bro now really made that shit happen thru all the bs bounced back to be one of the top song writers/ producers the perfect storm to greatness bless bro 💪🏾🙏🏾 had they just believed in his dream he woulda probably avoided almost of the madness this just made me go ever harder for my sons dream!!!

Great great interview loved this so much thank you for this math so inspiring!

Cap 1 was outside in the early 2000’s club scene. Chicago clubs were super lit! Biology Bar , E2

Great interview

Definitely best episode so far wild ass story that berg went through and is very inspiring salute to that man

Dope episode, one of the best! London locked in! 🏆🏆🏆🏆

One of the best podcasts, watch every episode💯

This really my new favorite podcast

Freedom is a must

Berg gets so much hate but I’m glad he was able to reinvent his self in the industry, you just have to put in the work, HITMAKA!!

They hollerin Bump give the game back/ That’ll be the day I give Yung Berg his chain back!

This shit is incredible

One of the best interviews I’ve seen 🔥🔥
