My father was a legend.

Yeah, I want to get a quick shape-up.

This is some New York [bleep] when you get a haircut

You know what I'm saying?
- My father used to run through this whole neighborhood.
And when he used to run around, he used to sing this song.
And the older people used to say that when they heard him,
they knew that they were safe
as long as they heard his voice.
We didn't know that he was sick.
When he did pass away, he told the doctors,
"My family knew me as a champ. I'm gonna die as a champ."
- No one tells you how to grieve with loss.
It was terrible. It was terrible.
But I know that he's looking down from heaven
and seeing me with the kids, and my brother, my sister.
I know he's smiling down. I know he's smiling down.
I know this is what he wanted to see.
I'm really grateful the kids finally got
to see my roots and my story.
And they got to see the true weight
of their grandfather's impact in the community.
The kids need to see and feel their own history up close.
And that's what I try to bring to "Drink Champs,"
the real culture, the struggle.
And I hope I'm honoring the culture
by celebrating the people that share those experiences.
And he made his wall while he was alive.
It wasn't, like, they saluted him,
