Help with DJ Screw subtitle project

Hey Screw heads. Would really really appreciate if anyone could lend me a hand clarifying some dialogue I'm trying to transcribe for subtitles for this DJ Screw documentary Soldiers United for Cash (2001). This is a passion project, not a commercial endeavour, FYI, just trying to make the film more accessible for folks.

I'm from New Zealand so I find some parts really hard to understand. Was hoping you guys could interpret the Houston accent a bit more easily and help me with these bits I'm stuck on.

Please see the video which has numbers to mark each part I'm stuck with. There's a corresponding screenshot below, showing the transcription for that section so far, and the part I'm not sure about is marked like this: [???]

  2. https://imgur.com/aMHa6lO (I couldn't find any song called "Young in the Game"). Is he just literally saying they were young in the game?
  3. https://imgur.com/6fnUx34 (Is there an artist named Y.S.I.T? or D-Q, R-Q? There's definitely an S.U.C / Southside Playaz affiliated artist named Duke)
  4. https://imgur.com/5FVZXlR (Is he saying "Rec'", as in Records, or "wreck" as in perform well / kill it?

If you feel like having a crack at it, please do, as I'm at my wits end trying to figure them out! Any help is super appreciated.

All the best 🙏

Help clarfying DJ Screw quote

Hey Screw heads. Can anyone please identify who Screw is talkin about in this clip? I believe there are 3 names. Sounds like "Ken" someone?, "Chris Cooder"?, "San Antonio"?

EDIT: Thanks so much to the commenters who helped me figure it out: the first part's not a name, he's saying "kinfolk", then he names "Chris Cooley", his cousin, who's from San Antonio.
