chatty chatty app the other day. Oh man. Like I feel like I I feel like Joe you were one of the late bloomers that never

got any [ __ ] So you're overcompensating now by keep telling us that you're old. That's why she thought you was over

compensate by telling your age. I never even heard that one. Like over the old overcompensation. Yeah. I don't know if

that's And I do understand that I tell people my age a lot. But it's not cuz I'm like insecure about being old. Mhm.

It's cuz young people stupid. How does that relate to finally getting [ __ ] That's what I'm saying. I don't what

like being old don't help you get I don't I don't know. Listen, I don't know. Well, I mean when you're sending

when you're sending money to everyone on the app, it it could help. Hey, the whole chat house.

I have a theory that Mo spends half of his money on women and we never know. I might be I might be there with you. I do

think that honestly everything he wears Alex everything he wears listen I think

you know how like the Alex that comment made you throw your hands in the air like are we at a concert cuz Alex was

like don't don't expose your [ __ ] armpits to me ever again now what happened for uh you know how the like

the super homophobic dude you're like he's probably gay cuz he's doing too much right now about hating the gays. That's how I feel like Maul is when he

bashes us for spending money on women. I think he doesn't laugh at y'all. I don't bash the psychology behind it. I just

laugh at y'all. I don't bash anybody. I just laugh. That's all. Laughing can be bashing. All of your clothes are sent to

you from the designers themselves. Some, not all. House paid for already.

Sneakers paid for already. You're not paying to walk nowhere. Cars paid for already. Huh? You eat off your rep, your

face, your ID, right? What are you spending on? Saving.

Saving them. No, saving money. That was good. Money. That was good. Good twist. I tried it. I tried it. I tried it. All

right. So, M is good. Parks, what's up? You been to Buffalo? No. What's been happening? You been mixing albums? I've been chilling. Yeah, I've been mixing

albums. Okay. Mixing albums. I'll take you spending any money on women? No. Well, my fiance. Yeah. Hey, I'm hitting

a round of applause. Round of applause. I stepped in Park's kitchen. He keeping it humble right now, huh? You know what

I mean? A humble king. Humility is important. I stepped in the kitchen. saw the new brand new Simple Human uh

garbage. I'm a simple human, man. Now you want to recycle. Yeah. Recycled. I just usually

have to do it afterwards. So now there's Park's a Democrat. He recycles. Now there's a letter attached to the the

garbage bag that he needs. He got to get the peas. Yeah, the extra one. Happy for you, man. A microwave. A microwave of

garbage growing up. A good garbage can right there. Yeah. I mean, first you got the microwave and switch and never and

never looked back. I've never used the microwave. Look, I trick I trick on my guy friends. I trick on my guy.

Microwave. I got you on the mic. By the way, the the air fryer is big step. That's one of the greatest inventions in

the last 50 years. I'm a little paranoid with the air fryer. That's one of the greatest good. I in 10 years it's going

to come out that it puts cancer in our food. There's no way it cooks [ __ ] that good. That [ __ ] is crazy. It's crazy.

I've been on the fence about the air fryer for some time. My mom. It's perfect for reheating food. No. Reheating my ass. Is it good for frying

food? Yes. Just frying everything. Frying food is a lot of work. It's messy. Listen to me. Everything.

I throw vegetables in that [ __ ] Yeah. It's crazy. I watched my mom make me a frozen steak in 9 minutes. And it came

out like definitely got cancelled. Delicious. Ruth Chris. No doubt. I thought my mom was Ruth Chris.

Oh [ __ ] That shit's so good. I started making dinner dates with my mom. Yo, mind Thursday night. You think you

can throw something in there? I was thinking about coping another one so I could do the dual cooking at the same time. Okay, now you now you using your

brain, but I think it's got to be radiation. It's like when the cell phones came out and everyone's like, "Oh shit." So, is this [ __ ] engaged or not?

He's engaged. Why is he cooking for himself? You can't cook when you're engaged. Look, see, leave on trying to

leave you on the island. I'm just trying to get us to you. Crack on Rory. Yes, you can cook when you're engaged. I'm going. What you saying, Rory? Uh, no. I

just think that's a little misogynistic that you still hold on to those old traditional values that uh were

instilled in us. N Roy's got a point. Roy be in the crib cooking naked as hell. Mad pink.

Sam yelling at him from the from the couch. Where's my steak?

These floors are filthy. Rory, not Sam screaming racial slurs to the kitchen.

She makes me cook naked. It's very degrading. You [ __ ] hank. [Laughter]

Mark that. Hick will never not be funny. Hick is funny. Hilarious. Hick is funny. But I don't know who that who what group

that applies to. It's like white trash country poor white people. Yeah. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. But

Cracker's hilarious, too. It is. Honky. Honk. Honky might be number one. It's up there. Bring that back. We're blurring

all of these out. Oh, you're a [ __ ] We can say it. We're white. Yeah,

exactly. That's I I say honky just cuz I get right into uh honky tonk man right after that.

That's what you going right into. Yeah, you ain't going to get me. [ __ ] you. That was your favorite wrestler, too. You look like you like the Honky Tonk

Man. Joe look like he got went crazy when Honky Tonk came out. Like, yo, oh my

god, he's going to win. Yo, why did I always fall for the wrestlers with the stupid gimmicks? Honky Tonk, man. Papa

Shango really drove it up for me. Terrible. It was disgusting. Papa Shango was terrible. I was like,

"Oh, he made it to the top row." Like Papa Jongo was nasty. They shoved He

climbed the cage. They shoved seven Undertakers in our face. Every one of them. Three Ultimate Warriors.

No, I don't believe that. I think it was only one Ultimate Warrior. It was two. It was definitely two. It was definitely two Ultimate Warriors. Okay.

Not three, but it was two. Um, Eric, what's going on? Rabb, you all right? Good. All right. Savon, what's going on?

You good? Alice the Great. What's going on? You good? All right, so the gang is back. The gang is all here. Listen,

let's get right into it. Since we was talking about racial slurs and [ __ ] David uh David Chappelle, Saturday Night

Live, I waited up Saturday Night Live. Uh Saturday Night Live comes on pretty late now. It always so Saturday night.

No, there was a game on there was a game. Thank you. See, I hate y'all just clown on me. No, but you said it comes

on late now. It came on late. I'm sorry, Mo. Yeah, this particular episode came on. I didn't know I needed to be a grammarianician. No, I thought you was

trying to say that. I don't think that's what comes on later. A grammatician. That's not proper grammar. A grammar man. That's not a word. Did y'all know

that Jim Carrey was going to be on this? He's been on like Jim Carrey is Joe Biden now. Yeah. Okay. So, he's Okay. I

I don't watch SNL no more. I only watch it cuz Dave was on. So, I wouldn't know. Okay. Well, what' you think? It was

good. Dave did a good job. He did a great job. Actually, riveting tape. Jim Carrey. Uh, like I said, I didn't know

he was on there. So him coming out as Biden was surprising to me. He did it. That's Jim Carrey. How deep is he gonna

go? I never thought Pause. I never thought that um It's a fair pause. I never thought Saturday Night Live was

that funny to me, honestly. It's always been a little hit and miss. Yeah. Like they have certain skits that's like Okay. But yeah, I mean overall I'm kind

of cool on Saturday Night. The Sean Connory skit was epic. The uh Jeopardy skit. Yeah, those are great. There's

been a couple epic skits. Yeah. Some skits like overall it's like Yeah. Yeah. They reached out for us to host in

February. Okay. Let's host Look, look at him. I'm not fired. I actually think we

wouldn't trying to dance for the colonizers. It's crazy. No, not that. Just was never a big fan, but uh Well, I

agree. I agree with I'm over in in Living Color fan. Absolutely. I love their new episodes. Are you rolling with

the ops? Even when I had beef with Marlin, you were in Living Color guy. Oh, that wasn't Beef. All right, cool.

And it's not. What's up, Marlin? Uh well, yeah, I enjoyed uh some of these sketches. I thought the Uncle Ben one

was was very funny when that was funny. Uh, Edima, Uncle Ben went into HR to get

fired uh through, you know, the cancel [ __ ] of what happened to them and then Dave being the all state guy with a fake

voice. Yeah. Yeah. I thought it was good. They all broke character and started dying laughing. That made it funnier to me. Yeah. So, no, I enjoy

this. Chappelle is always good for these type of times to give some different

perspective and observation. This this is when comedians are important. Yeah. This this type of [ __ ] that that that

differs between the the real comedians and just people that tell jokes like Dave has a different type of intellect

that you need in these types of times and which is why I hate when they try to cancel comedians cuz they're some of the

most important people ever when it comes to serious [ __ ] Ironically, I agree. So, was good. It was good to have Dave.

Dave host this one. Dave is the uh post-election host now. I think that's your gig now, buddy. I'm I was a little

upset they went from tribe to Foo Fighters and I [ __ ] with Foo Fighters but is he who he did the Trump one and

he did this one so two in a row after Trump was elected was him and Tribe and then this was him and Foo Fighters.

Yeah, Foo Fighters were playing new slabs. I don't want to hear the new slap. No, give me the old the new

I don't [ __ ] with the old. Give me the old fu. Yeah, old fu. Uh but what did you think of the monologue itself?

Uh, I I thought it was important that he started out as serious as he did. Again, that's what I think Dave and the more

intellectual comedians are so good at where worries are comedy analysts. Well,

I I mean, I love standup comedy. You and I both are standup comedy junkies. Um,

but yeah, how he started it didn't even feel like you were watching Saturday Night Live or a TV program at all on

NBC. like you were sitting there really listening to him and then when he made the joke about his uh great-grandfather

being a slave and you know learning how to read and all that it really brought you in and then it was [ __ ] a

hilarious punch line when he said his uh Chappelle show was streaming on Netflix

now and he said his great-grandfather's probably looking down like, "Oh, you've been sold sold and bought more than I

have cuz he's not making any money off the shit." Like just Dave Dave can get you to just be quiet and listen and

forget you're watching a comedian until the punch line hits. Yeah. The dope [ __ ] about Dave's career to me is that he was

in a lot of your my favorite comedy movies, he was never really the main character. Yeah. And to now see him as

arguably top five standup comedians ever, top three, however you want to,

you know, like like name it, it's it's just like interesting because you go back and look at some of your favorite

movies from the early 2000s. He was in them, but he wasn't in them. Like he had a short role, you know what I mean? It

was always like Martin or Huh? It was always a good role. Like Yeah. Like his his characters were always funny. Yeah.

Like he killed, but it was a small role. But it was a small role. And then it was like when we got Halfbaked, that was like the the one the culture for the

culture. But it's just interesting to see where his career is at in comparison to a lot of the other comedians who he

played behind in a lot of movies. Mhm. You know what I mean? Like he's like the guy now and a lot of them are like where

are they, right? You know what I mean? But he did a great job. I [ __ ] with Dave. I mean, I guess that's kind of even more why I respect Chappelle so

much because we watched him do all those little roles and do standups and like re really work through his career before he

got Chappelle Show. And even Chappelle Show wasn't expected to pop the way it did. And when he finally got to the peak

of his career at that time, he was like, "No, I'm cool." Right. Yeah. This isn't

worth it. And it's just funny looking at I know I've been working for 30 years to get here, but no, this is not right for me. And like a lot of old Chappelle

[ __ ] if you look at it now, like a lot of that [ __ ] is what's going on right now. Yeah. Like the whole stimulus check

[ __ ] when he bought the baby and was like on the corner like is your kid? He's like, "No, I just bought it." Like bought this baby doing their stimulus

buying dumb [ __ ] You don't even like Yeah. Dave

watching Dave, every time he comes out, the first thing I look for is that cigarette. Mhm. And every time I find

it, I'm like, man, this is just so important as a creative, no matter how

genius you genius you are, cuz Dave is one of the greatest to have a signature.

And that was this is a recent thing. I think I first saw him do this during that Radio City run that he did. He's

been doing the cigarette on stage forever and ever. Yeah. Uh, did you I never saw it on the Chappelle show. Uh,

not a Chappelle show, but on standups. Absolutely. Every time. Yeah, for sure. Cigarettes from the

crowd and [ __ ] It's been his thing for a while. Um, did you watch the Mark Twain uh award show thing that they

ended up putting on and he brings that up in his acceptance speech? He says, "America, look at me smoking indoors.

This is called leverage." Well, that's what I was doing cigarettes in 30 Rock.

Doing it on your way up and doing it at 30 Rock is a little different. Yeah,

it's very different in a club. So, I appreciate that. Uh, the McQueen's with the suit. I appreciated it the way I I I

appreciate when our geniuses bring bring hip-hop with them. Uh, and then he got

ain't hip hop though. And then he got to talking. I'm just talking about sneakers with the suit. Oh, yeah. Sneakers with the suit uh fashion. And then he got to

talking and I was really excited when when I heard this was coming on because

oh [ __ ] we got one of our black our black kings or our greats doing what they do in front of the white people and

I already know where they're going to take it when that happens. Um and then when he said he started out saying I'm a

little bit nervous and I've never heard him say that. I said oh man he got some [ __ ] to get off. Yeah. And then he got

to going and I said and I tweeted this. I said, "Boy, does Dave have like the exact right amount of Paul Mooney in

him." Yeah. Like I've been to the Paul Mooney show where even I got a little

uncomfortable for white people like cuz he just be going crazy. But Mooney is a

little he's extreme. His approach is very direct, very overt. He gets right

to it. I respect the leg the legacy of Paul Mooney, but I never really thought he was that funny. No, he's pretty

respect his, you know, he's Oh, you have to. He's one of the guys that respect. Yeah. So, I respect I respect his work.

Well, Mooney is definitely missed, but if you catch like the good good Mooney, he's tough to compete. He's hilarious.

Yeah, I'm sure. But but you never know cuz that's really who he is. Like I I had heard or watched some interview

where he had all these people packed out a [ __ ] big ass comedy club and he got

on stage and just read the newspaper for an hour. See, that's funny. Like it's terrible

stand up. I get it. But that's funny to me, man. I don't know. And I've gone to see Paul Mooney at least three to four

different times at Carolines. And to my surprise, every time it's a bunch of white people in there. Sure.

Yeah. But why why do y'all want to go see that? Uh disagree with all the [ __ ]

that he says. I get that. But I'm talking about the people that come sit down, they hear what he's saying, they get angry, they get up, they walk out,

and now they become the center of the show. Cuz if you walk out, that's the Oh my god, we're going to hear about you

for the next 40 minutes now. You came with me to Paul Mooney, right? Yeah. I I feel like that's Dave just

does it right, man. The Paul Mooney white thing is I think the same part of

the white brain that loves The Wire and loves hiphop that's violent and like

just they want to they want to be on on the tour and look out the window at all the [ __ ] that they're not from or a part

of. That's part of our white brain that just likes that [ __ ] And I think that's the mooney appeal with white people. Like you go to a real hip-hop black

conscious show, half the crowd is white or more than half. I knew this was important to Dave when he appeared

sober. Yeah. And and then I didn't know which Dave I liked better. Sober Dave or tipsy

looking mushroom looking Dave when he was doing the standup. I I like mushroom Dave might be hard to beat. I like Dave

that comes out sober and smokes his electronic weed pen non-stop for an

hour. So, by the end of the show, electronic weed, boy, was that a thing for 6 months. I know some people are

still on it. Yeah. Yeah. My my dad loves that [ __ ] Still use it. It's great for indoor events, but we don't have those

anymore. Well, yeah, I enjoyed this, man. Uh, as far as

Saturday Night Live is a little, but I was real happy to see Dave. No, I want

to give them give them some bail this year. I' I've enjoyed this season and I and I haven't enjoyed SNL in over a

decade. I feel like Bur Chappelle is too too The burr sketches were hilarious. Uh the the Issa uh episode was great, too.

I did see all Isas stuff was good. Yeah, I think this season they've they've been trying to adapt to the now as far as the

sketches go. Like, let's not make these so upper westside Jewish funny. Like I

think we need to tap into a bigger audience and not focus on the type of humor that only a specific group in

Manhattan likes. Yeah. Like we have to expand here and do some funnier [ __ ]

related to Dave Chappelle because I don't want to spend too much time on this, but uh Tribe Call Quest is related

to David Chappelle for me. Um so let's do a little bit of versus talk. I thought that was an interesting

conversation that went by about uh Outcast versus a Tribe Call Quest. Yeah.

Uh, and let me not fail to mention that TI vers Jeezy is next Thursday. Not this Thursday, but next Thursday. Yeah, I'm

excited about that. But Tribe versus Outcast, they're going to find This is not official, right? No, no, no, not at all. Not at all. We We are uh spec uh

spect uh speculating right now. I don't I don't think it'll happen really. I think that I think Tip is one of those

guys that just he's difficult to work with. Andre, too, I don't want to say difficult to work with. tipping andre

is a nice battle of the uh hip hop divas. Not divas disrespectfully, of course, but y'all know what I'm saying.

Like, yeah, andre is not divas. Yeah, you you see you see my writer. When's the last time Andre sat down in

front of a camera for an hour? When's the last time he sat down with Big Boy? I'm not trying to be funny. I'm just

saying. He did the Rick Rubin thing that was in front of a camera uh less like a year ago. Yeah, less than a year. I

don't know about professionally, but I follow Big Boy on Instagram. like they hang out with their kids all the time.

Yeah. It's not like Awesome. They're not speaking personally. Yeah. But new conversations have to be had when we're

talking about business meetup. Sure. Absolutely. Like I'll come and link with you. You the kids. We family at the end of the day. Yeah. But when you start

talking about using my likeness, but this is slightly it's still business obviously, but it's a slightly different

thing. No, I just meant period. I'm not talking about them. I don't I don't know enough about what's going on with them. But I would love to see it. I think

they'll run to Q-Tip saying is Andre with it and Andre saying is Q-Tip with it. Andre is not saying like I think

they'll just do the back and forth. Well, all right. If if Q-Tip does it, I'll do it. Andre Andre is definitely not saying All right. Well, give me how

y'all think it plays out. Let's guess a little bit. Let's just if it happens. Yeah, if it happens. That's a good battle, right? Uh Outcast will win this

to to 20. Yeah. And that pains me to say, but yeah, I think Outcast wins this. That's a slugfest. Hell yeah.

That's a slugfest. The only reason why Outcast I would give the advantage is because they have more newer records.

Yeah. And I think and they have more records that I think more people like.

Uh they have more commercial records too. More commercial records too. Yeah. Bigger bigger. But like hits like top

top 10 number ones. Yeah. Atlanta wins again.

Atlanta wins again. Q-Tip's got like And Classic isn't even fair cuz they sold a

lot of [ __ ] records too, right? Hell yeah. But he's got a lot of records, too. Like, yo, Midnight Marauders, I

think, was one of the first cassettes I purchased. Yeah. And he's got solo records. I was about to say, is Q-Tip

allowed to play what he produced and solo records in a Tribe verse Outcast battle? I don't think so. All right. That's different. Yeah.

Makes it a little Q-Tip production in there and even his solo joints. Yeah.

Like Vibrant thing will go crazy in a What about the stuff Ghost? Well, he executive produced the Infamous. Yeah.

The whole album. Yeah. Like I know Havoc and and P did a lot of the production, but he was definitely using the drums

from that album are the same as the drums from uh uh Beats Rounds and Life. You can hear that those are Tips drums.

Mhm. So, can you play them? I say yes. And the Infamous

I mean, if I did the drums, I'm playing that [ __ ] [ __ ] I play off illatic. If I did a a high hat on the infamous, it's

getting played. Yeah. Facts. Sorry. Yo, y'all hear that's coming in right there? That's one of your If I did this, if I

did the stove at the beginning, it shook worse. That was my stove. I'm playing. Yo, you can't even keep the pace without the

Yeah. Enjoy. Heyya, I'm going to play survival of the fittest. All right, fine. This is one of those. I think this

is one of those that is a great idea, but I just think it's it's too much. Uh I'm waiting to see what they had playing

with that Jodicy pick that they posted and and tried to allude something to Jodicy versus they never said anything

else. They never said anything else. It would have to be Boys to Men or New Edition. Anybody else? I don't see it. But why you even Why you Some groups you

can't even play. Don't tease with Jod to see. You can't just tease with like a a group like that. I don't see it. Um

Well, I think Swiss did this publicly to try to help push to just have the fans shame them as much. Season two, we here.

Yeah. Yeah, as powerful and as annoying as the internet can be, these are good moments where as fans we can try to shame our artists into doing something

for us. Like, please QT. I think for a lot of these artists, like, you know,

Andre 3000, I think this kind of just feels like it almost comes across as too

braggadocious. I think just sitting there playing your records, it's like I think it's weird for some artists. Like,

I'm not going to just sit here and play some of my best records for Yeah, I'm sure. You know what I mean? I think a lot of fans I mean a lot of artists feel

like that's just a little too it's like man I don't want to do that. I'm not sure that big boy would have a problem with it. No, some artists don't. But I

think somebody like Andre 3000 does cuz it's such a private low-key person. I don't think he wants to be like the

center of attention on But that's the beauty of Outcast. And we've had this conversation I think before about groups

and I've had the conversation with Pharaoh talking about organized confusion. Like when you have the guy that's big boy, you can be Andre and be

eccentric off the You don't have to do the braggadocious [ __ ] if that's not what you want to do. Let Big Boy do that. That's the beauty of the group.

Just be there, hang out, dance a little bit, what you know, whatever the [ __ ] you want to do. I think he'd rather be

playing a flute in his jumper. Bring the flute. I was listening in the mall delivering. They were live from Soho.

Killer commentary and I noticed I'm like, why you did that today? Why you you cleaned your chain today? No. Put

the chain on the stove, huh? No. Put a toothpaste to the chain. Huh. Nice. Nice little glisten. No, Joe. I didn't do

anything. Put it in the shower. Let that steam hit it. I do. I've never had a chain. You guys cleaning your chain

tooth. Rory never had a chain. Tell Rory how to be cleaning your [ __ ] You put it on the stove. I don't I don't know how to clean jewelry. No. You put your roll.

Take it to a jewelry store, I guess, and let them clean it. You guess. Oh, you walk around with a dirty chain. Yuck.

Yuck. Couldn't be me. Damn. Your girl want a [ __ ] that's

yolked. Heyo. I don't even know if it's a yo. It just sounds like it.

Yo, y'all shouldn't have put me nowhere where I can hear conversations by 24 year olds. Oh, you're getting all the

new Oh, I'm out here now. Oh my god. I'm I can't believe y'all

pulled me into that chat house [ __ ] man. Chatter chatter house. Cory text me

like, "Get in chat house now." I was like, "Oh, okay. Are you enjoying your

experience so far? Cuz I've not I haven't found my pocket. It was It was just funny. You know, was it's just funny listening to people like what was

what was her name? Was the young lady's name that one? Did she tell You want to

give some back story? No, Carmen. That was No, I thought Carmen won. My name Carmen is I could listen to her. What's

her What's her her clubhouse? I'm on her. I want to follow her. Listening to her talk. Yo, I was I was [ __ ]

crying. Fellas fellas, what did she win? Well, Parks, uh, on this app, Clubhouse,

you can create roles. Chatter House promo way to [ __ ] that's

not paying us. No wonder they let us go Spotify. Chatter House. Yeah. The Chatty Patty House. Um, there was a room called

For the Love of Joe Buddton. Wow. And uh, ser a series of questions.

And uh, we we did some back and forth with some women and really got to know them and and their needs. What do you

mean? There's a couple of women we'd really beat in real life. that I may have voted against on

purpose. How did you guys vote? Yo, her pretty much. That's exactly how it went.

Yeah, that [ __ ] was funny, man. It seems like that app needs like uh that app needs like a some type of visual or text

element to it, I think, would make it a little bit better. I think a chat would be funny for the people that can't talk.

I think we should stop improving other people's [ __ ] is what I think. I mean, unless y'all just going to sit here and

give it all up. My bad. Oh, intelligent baddies. I mean, you know, tech baddies.

Parks is a tech baddy. They could hold that gem for free. Stop

touching me. Engineer baddy.

That's some funny [ __ ] All right. No, I'm having too much fun. Let me toss it to our uh uh former Sony baddy. Uh this

baddy thing. This is a check. No, listen. Uh,

this morning I got a DM from a beautiful young lady that said, "Damn, you you

taking four days, five days to respond like you a baddie." No, no, you are. And I said, "I am."

[ __ ] is you on? I like that idea. What you talking about? Nah, that's that's how we on it right now. Quick question. How long do you think before Instagram

and Facebook uh buys or implements a chat house feature? Chitty chatty. Yeah,

honestly I'm shocked that Twitter hasn't done it yet. Twitter would be the Twitter Twitter was toying with the idea

not not too long ago and for some reason they seems they seem

to have abandoned it. But uh I think listen I'm well documented as saying we

have to see the change in the next 5 years. I don't know where the change is going to come from, but we saw the

social apps to dictate the last decade and we saw how instrumental they've been

in everything that we're passionate about. Uh so something about that has to change in the next 5 to 10 years. I

mean, but I feel like to what we're saying, if someone buys Chitty Chatty

app, I mean, we've seen it with like when Periscope came out and the live feature happened and then Instagram was

like, "Well, guess we'll take that idea and monopolize that whole game."

Yeah, but it's about how you continue to improve on your idea. And that's the beautiful thing as a creative like uh

[ __ ] Instagram Facebook Instagram/F Facebook stole from Tik Tok. And what

did what did Tik Tok do every new app that But wait, let me finish. Let me finish my point. And what did Tik Tok

do? They went and signed a deal with Sony. Like they're signing deals with the record labels now to be a

distributor. So I mean you can start as one thing and turn into something else is what I'm saying. Go ahead. Yeah. Um,

no. I just think with the smaller features of things, we pred I just feel

like the bigger companies see that and just implement it into their own platform and because the community is

already there and it's easier just to be on one app rather than seven. Can you imagine when the 50-year-old racists on

Facebook get a hold of a Chitty Chatty party? Oh, it's lit. Rory, you're absolutely right. They do, but that don't mean that the smaller business has

to die. Like, I'm not buying Master P oodles and noodles, but I don't that doesn't mean somebody isn't. Mhm. Uh

Title isn't the preferred. It isn't the uh uh streaming service with the most market share, but they're not trying to

be. So, I mean, I'm saying get stolen from. I'm saying more

features uh that can be implemented into an app. Like, I used to use Periscope often, probably more than I did use IG

live. But once I already had some type of a following on Instagram and the community was there and I already used

Instagram, now you have the live feature on that rather than having people click this link to an app they hadn't heard of

yet. It it just is a big easy step for the major corporations to take over all

these new features that the smaller companies are making. Well, me personally, that's why, you know, I came in here before our Spotify deal ended. I

went on a like five episode rant about [ __ ] but uh to give those of you that have been following us an update on

things. I just think it's a really good time to not be signed to anybody. Like I don't know I don't know why people I

don't know why people thought that we was just talking that talk for a little while. Sometimes you have you have to let the market play out.

Sometimes you're ahead of the play and you could see small steps being taken to other people getting to the play and you

just got to wait it out. Um and that's how I feel. I don't know why people are just rushing into these these uh these

deals. I don't get it. You know why? You know why? Security.

Yeah. Mo's not wrong. Yeah. Some people I wondered the other day I wondered the other day how uh I won't name any names,

but how a few people were paying their bills now that touring is over cuz like that happens every month. You have to

figure that out every month. And for me, if I were still rapping, I don't know how I would be paying my bills right now. Yeah, you'll figure it out. I check

out. You're a hustler. That's why you see the mixtape hosting thing. I would have a project out every week to be

honest with you. Not a bad idea. I mean, not every week, every month. It's not a bad idea. Merch. Step up your merch. Killing my empire game. Yeah. And a lot

of people I think, you know, with these pay walls, a lot of artists, I think, are staying afloat with that, putting

content behind these pay walls and and things like that. There's ways to do it. When you're a hustler, it's, you know,

you always run into roadblocks and obstacles. You know what I'm saying? I don't understand. You threw your drink in the air when Cassidy put out I'm a

hustler when you was in the club. I've never done that in my life. Well, you are a [ __ ] liar. I threw a drink in

the air. What song got you hype as a Bronx Proud Boy? M OP Annie up

in 2000s. M OP Annie up

2001 up. Yeah. What? Cash. You thought that's

what did it? Cash got me going crazy. Well, I don't maybe my drinking my twostep is the second single really got you. Cassie made me go crazy when the

beginning of me and you used to come on to the club. Hey, Cassy had joints, man. I meant Cassie.

But well, Cassidy, too. Yeah, Cassie. Shout out to Cassie and Cassidy. Yeah, both of the the Casses.

Uh Rory was telling me about uh some diet tips. Oh, no. Because you look so

Rory saw me with the lipo. Hey, you look so slim and healthy. I was took a little bit off the back. So, I had to ask you

if you was on if you was on transfer. Yeah, man. Come on, man. From where?

My thighs. Mo, you tight. I got thighs. [ __ ] out of here.

You always trying to pull me into your [ __ ] Basley, what's up, man? I had enough of the dog rumors. Get out of

here. So, see, she's consensual. She's initiating. Really? For real, man.

aggressive on me. Um, no. I I was wondering if he was on if he was on the keto and I've never heard of keto in my

entire life. I don't know what that is. I do want to get to the bottom of keto. Keto is one of the keto

keto o which I think is short for something. Ketogenic. Ketogenic diet.

Ketogenic. This has become popular. He know all the generous. Ketogenic.

Yes. Okay. And first of all, can can we give Kylie some credit? She's bodying the Beyonce face every surgery she gets.

See, that's white privilege right there. How Rory could just talk about that and say she [ __ ] like that. I can't do that. I'm not rolling with Kylie till she

smacked the [ __ ] out of Larsa. Oh, that's Chloe. I can't keep up with my Jenner news. I got to ask more. All

right. Keto Jenner. What happened? So, keto is popular cuz I I think it does work, but it sounds like the worst diet

on earth. Essentially, all you eat is red meat and cheese for like 6 months

and you'll lose 12 pounds right away. There's no way I could be good for you. Anyone that's on keto, I just imagine

you stink. Like, you just smell bad. Your colon is shot. You know what your insides have to be like if you just eat

red meat and cheese and that makes you lose weight, bro. You don't even think about that. If when you go to a chick's

house and use the bathroom, you look at the corners. Oh, come on. Absolutely. Women have just disgusting bathrooms in

general. Disgusting creatures. They are. It's gross, man. What kind went to a woman bathroom? What she had in the

corner? hair, lint balls, hair, orange juice

spilt on this side, roaches, orange on the side. That means when it was a [ __ ] in there that wasn't her. Condoms on the

floor, makeup stains that aren't even hurting. Mop the bathroom floor and mumps. You tippy toeing the pee. That

was disgusting. Three P, two P. You stayed. Shower curtain. Disgusting. Moldy at the top. Did I stay? Those are

the girls that got the best [ __ ] Mad mold on top of the shower curtains.

Oh my god. Water don't get all the way hot. It's a little lukewarm. Mirror dirty sound like a [ __ ] night. [ __ ]

ain't windexed in a decade. This [ __ ] was in a haunted house.

He was in a haunted house. Where you was at, man. [ __ ] got the broom in the bathroom. Still ain't swept. Oh my god.

It's nasty in there. Yeah. How you turning your bathroom into storage everywhere? Lofah on the floor of the

bathtub. Hang it up. Hang it up. The [ __ ] are you doing? Yeah, the rag just

sitting in the tub. Yeah, [ __ ] always want to hang the lofah up in your crib. This going in the trash, ma. Loop is

disgusting. You're not showering in here again. Why [ __ ] look so familiar? Hey, if you

don't mind, I'm just going to go and shower. Nah, that lofa just say I got to go to the studio. L mad stale smell like

mildew. Yeah. No, not at all. You got to get in there and pick it up and smell it. See how she giving it up. Absolutely

not. Jesus, I see how you got CO. That's how you got it. I'm a sniffing a dirty

lofah. That's how you got that [ __ ]

I can see why women would be going on more of those diets now that the weather's nicer in New York. I know nobody's alarmed by climate uh climate

change. We have not had a winter in New York in years. And it doesn't look like And it doesn't look like we're getting one now. We got a summer. It was 70 70°

yesterday in New York City. working on my 10. It's over the next two weeks. 50s. Pull that. Yeah, but that's not bad

either. That's not That's not New York. That's not New York winter. You talking like a LA [ __ ] That's not winter.

What do you mean it's not winter yet? Mo, do you remember in New York when it was 19° every day in the winter? Yeah,

it's not winter. That's the time that we're hard back. Yeah. I mean, cuz you

won't stop polluting. I mean, it's because of your keto diet, your farts. I would ruin the ozone. Would never do no

[ __ ] like that. I just want to know what pot that you cleaned cleaned your chain in. Like what? What pot you used? Yo,

you are [ __ ] like it was spaghetti. What's wrong with you? You stirred it. No. You sure dirty bathroom? Put a

little salt in there. [ __ ] stirred his chain. You You be thinking I'm be doing some crazy cuz you won't tell me what

you do in your life. Guess it. So that's what you think? I got to freestyle it. I got to freestyle. I'm mad the fellas won't join me when I do that. Um, what

else do we need to get into? What else? Oh, we had an interesting conversation about fanfare.

And I'll get into that later in in our King Vaughn conversation because Vaughan had about five, six or seven songs that

I liked, maybe six. Mhm. To me, that meant I really liked him. Like, I like

this guy. I was waiting to see his future. I was invested a little bit. You have five songs I like. Not one, not

two, not three, that's five. Y'all say that that doesn't mean [ __ ] because to

be a fan today means you're anticipating a release. And I don't even see how that could be true at all. It's it's it's

more it's more than that. It anticipating a release, you know, about a lot of their early work, you follow

them, you you know, you go to the shows. It would depend on where those five songs are at, too. Is it one project or

five projects? Yeah. And did I seek those five songs out or did they find me? I don't care. If you make five songs

I like, I'm listening to your next song. I'm listening to your next two songs. A fan really goes after if it's one album

or spread out. Does that make you a fan? Like Van Vaughn has five songs on one

project that I like. Khaled maybe has seven songs spread out that I like. So

now when I see Khaled's name, I click on it. I don't know if I'm a fan, but I

click on it when he drops. I'm not anticipating, but when I see his name, I'm clicking. You got five of them I

enjoy. That's a lot today. Mhm. I take the word fan for what it is, fanatic very seriously. So, I'm not a fan of a

lot of artists. I like a lot of artists. I'm not a fan. How many artists you a fan of, Roy? Yes, you are. You're a fan of artists. Uh, it's double digits. All

right. Probably it's double digits. Stop. There's no shame in this. And all of life? Yeah. I'm thinking probably 25

30. No, not all of life. I'm talking about currently. Oh, currently now. Yes.

Uh, I 10 if we're talking double digits. A fan. I'm probably in the team. Yo, y'all are crazy. I need you. I need to

be educated about y'all. You are a fan of more than 10 acts today. Yeah, I would think so. What are you talking

about? I like don't do this like the top 25 rappers when we put 50 rappers in the

top 10 artist. You like more than 10. I don't know if it's 10 artists I would go see. That's the criteria. You you would

have to go see if somebody you have you definitely go see them live and pay for the ticket for sure. Like example some

shows, you know how you go to you go to some shows and they say such thing as a show. It's over with. Find another way.

Okay. So, how they used to say, "Yo, you could chill backstage, but when you're a fan, you like, nah, I want to sit out in

the crowd. I want to be I want I want to see the show." That's when you're a fan of somebody's

or a showgoer. All right. But now you you just you just hopping around. No, cuz I could be a fan

of going out. I could be a fan of shows. Well, there's there's also a difference there of me being a fan of live music.

So, if I happen to be somewhere and I see that there's live music, I'll go listen to it. But not in the sense that

I sought out this ticket and I made sure I was free the day, bought, cleared my schedule to go see this person perform.

Do you guys miss touring? Do you guys miss touring? You miss it now? It really hit me when I started thinking about Christmas show that we're not going to

be able to do this year cuz we've done several Christmas shows in a row now. It's kind of a thing. Should I accept the drive-in show gig? I'll be down for

Christmas. I was talking to Ian about that. I'd be down for Christmas. You're a loser. That's why you were not deciding things. No, we're not doing the

driving. Our our supporters are too You want them to come honk on honk at us? I I You took You took exactly my response

to it. So, you don't even listen. I said no. I said I was talking to Ian about it cuz I I was already awkward trying to

talk to the crowd. Now I'm going to talk to headlights. Yeah. I don't like it. It's a little

weird. I don't like it. And And [ __ ] we're already damn near in 2021.

When do the shows come back for real? I know we asked this here a bunch, but time keeps on ticking and and I don't

see a sign of it. I would say summer at the very earliest. I don't even see people trying to book the Houston and

Atlanta gigs and those are the two places over here I see open and rocking. Yeah, I see a couple people out there, but there's just so many.

There's too many contradictions with the restrictions and [ __ ] And there's not enough music dropping in a pandemic for

me. I don't know what people are doing. Well, that's why cuz people can't perform it. They can't tour it. They can't do these shows. you have to make a

living. If there's one thing this co [ __ ] taught me is I don't understand why they haven't pushed for like rapid

inexpensive accessible testing. Cuz if we could all test ourselves inexpensively frequently, we would be

able to do pretty much everything that's normal. No, you can do everything that's normal as long as it's, you know, like

you could eat inside as long as inside is outside. They got all these bubbles on the

sidewalks now. It's like I thought it was a great point. Why not just go inside the [ __ ] restaurant? You can't

if you look outside now because it's getting colder. They're creating these like tents and these little bubbles and

like all this stuff and they're saying you can't eat inside but you're eating inside. Just inside is outside. Yeah.

What's the difference between this establishment or me sitting in this [ __ ] little bubble? Stupid. Like I get it. The virus is real. I understand

that. But so are many other viruses that we bas come into contact with every day.

Like it's just it's just stupid. [ __ ] is crazy. like let people go back to leave the mask on. You know what I mean? Like

get us testing like rapid at least fairly accurate test. If you're not feeling well, stay home. Like what we've

always always been doing like with regular common [ __ ] like the the a cold and the flu and but I went and got the

rapid test took 15 minutes or whatever. If you could just get that for 50 bucks or 20 bucks or something at the Dwayne Reed, you would be able to go about a

fairly normal life and test yourself once a week or you know when something happened and when you're not feeling good. Yeah. It's crazy. Anyway, this

[ __ ] is weird. I digress. Well, since it's been nice in New York, I keep trying to get the roof Chris to get the

tomahawk and I just can't. Damn. And I do think I think Biden is getting prepared to close it down again.

Absolutely. There's been a surge. So, I wouldn't be surp I know four people close to me that have gotten it in the

last couple weeks. So, including me. Including you, which is that was not the case previously. I knew, you know,

someone that knows someone, someone's grandma, someone's, you know, whatever before. Now it's like, "Oh [ __ ] my niece has it." You know what I'm saying?

My one of my best friends has it. You have it. Yeah. It's different. Mandy has it. You know what I mean? Like, I mean,

people went back outside. That's really what it was. Not much else to it.

Mandy's been inside and she can't get a positive test for nothing. I mean, a negative test. Mandy went to Tulum.

I can't wait to go to Tulum. So, you can get it again? I can't wait. I got the antibodies now. I'm good. I'm out here.

I'm spitting on [ __ ] like that. Got the antibodies now. I'm coughing at [ __ ] Yo, what's up? Ah,

you ain't I got the antibodies. I'm dabbing [ __ ] up, rubbing their

back. I'm putting mad germs on them like a pit pocket.

And this is the reason why herpes spreads and co.

How many chicks you [ __ ] with herpes, Rory? I I I hope zero. I hope I hope

zero. I really hope zero. You hear Mr. Houston over here, Mr. Hopeful? I hope zero. I hope the question you

just throw at somebody though. One uh one can only know. I hope none. Yeah. No, he hope none. What that mean? Nine.

Two. That means nine about four. Well, what was it? Inflamed.

Was it that time? That's I've had a few cold sores before.

White people looking for a pink dot on him is nuts.

All right, man.

All right. No, come on. We got to talk about important stuff. Let's talk about important stuff. Come on. We'll get We'll get on screen, man. What's up with you, son? He just keeps bringing this

back up. Shut off the screen, man. Hey.

Yes, sir. PA, you did what you had to do. G, you did what you had to do. I thought they

were still counting over there. No, I think that's done. They finally finished. Yeah. Yo, Trump got [ __ ] shook, man. They've

been counting two weeks ago. They finished. Why Nevada still counting? Tell me why Nevada. It's 3,000

people in Nevada. Why are they still counting? You know why they still counting? I know. Cuz Trump got [ __ ]

shook. Trump going to shake this [ __ ] up, man. This [ __ ] ain't over. Some recounts. This is over. It's over. This

is over. You said that with Al Gore Bush, too. Look at you hopeful for your man. I'm just saying Bush was close. You wishing your man get back, right? No,

that ain't my man. I'm I'm laughing at all this [ __ ] This [ __ ] is just funny to me. But if y'all think Trump going down like like that, congratulations to

President-elect Joe Biden. Uh, and Camala Harris, our first black female

vice president. Comas first black, first female. Yeah, mad first. Yeah, mad

first. Congratulations to them both. I did I did laugh at the SNO [ __ ] the opening part when she said, "I'm the

first biracial black female vice president with my husband who is the

first gentleman with kids that's Jewish. I checked off every voter fraud box

there was." Yo, being a first man's kind that's that

sounds kind of lit, though. Yeah, being a first gentleman's all right.

number one player. First gentleman just sounds hilarious. That's swaggy, man. When your wife got

the fly job. I don't even know if he's a gentleman. I felt really good seeing the people

celebrating the streets. I did. I'll be honest with you. It was lit. I walked around. I I kept it. Well, the TV was on MSNBC all week. Uh when it was announced

Biden won, I did switch over to Fox News to catch a vibe. I watched a lot of Fox actually. They were they pretty good job

of being biased. I got to give it to them. They were really somber and sad and it was awesome to watch. They act

like they didn't even want to deliver the news that day. Well, those days and it was good. I don't normally watch Fox

News. I don't either, but I was watching it during the election. I was actually surprised about the fact that they

weren't super biased. I I like to watch Fox just because I don't want to be that person that just literally sits there

and only watches the thing that suits their thoughts. Like I believe this

thing, so let me watch a whole bunch of stuff that's just going to reaffirm my ideas. So yeah, I try to watch Fox for

another side. Yeah, I laugh most of the time, but I can't understand the uh that one white boy, though. Uh which one?

Tucker Carlson. That might be the one. He's a He's a very punchable face. Yeah. Yeah. I'm happy for Biden. I'm happy for

uh Camala Harris. I'm happy for the country. I'm happy I can finally turn the TV off and not deal with the anxiety

that comes with watching all of that [ __ ] I'm happy that the blue is where the blue is that he was able to turn a

couple of those red states. Um I'm happy that we had the highest v voter turnout that we've ever had. Like I'm happy

about I'm happy about a few things. on both sides. Biden number one, Trump number two as the most votes in

presidential history. Yeah, it's a big deal. No, it's super big deal. Yeah, super big deal. So, I was happy about a

lot of that. I'm happy that uh they're taking all these pics of Trump looking sad, hiding out in the White House. I

like the moving truck in front of the White House. I did. I get a particular joy out of every uh this Supreme Court

of this state. So, get the [ __ ] out of here. I enjoy it every time.

I'm not jack I'm not jacking that more people voted for Biden and Obama in08. I'm not jacking that. Huh? I don't

believe that more people voted for Oh, I don't believe that. But why when more

people voted period? I don't believe that. Why? You don't believe in 2008? I

don't think more people voted for Joe Biden in than Obama in 2008. Well, more people voted for Trump this year than

they voted for Obama in 2008. Correct. They're they're number one and number two for the most votes ever. That's what

I'm saying. This whole election to me is like [ __ ] I don't believe that. I believe 2008 you felt that

me. I mean, call me crazy, but 2008 when Obama was running for president, we felt

everybody weren't as politically active then. And and what voting wasn't really a young voting for the first black

president. I get it. Well, there's nothing for y'all to argue. More people voted now than have ever voted before. Now, you

can choose not to believe that, but I don't believe that. It feels that way. Yeah, it feels that way. I know more

people that voted personally because including myself. I didn't vote in 2008. Democrats don't normally get the states

that they got. That's why it feels that way. I'm not jacking it, but okay. No, it feel it feels that way cuz [ __ ]

anything Democrat or Republican on both sides. It's the most people that have voted. I also walked the most people

that came out to vote. I also I also the studio the vote uh early voting place was directly next door to the studio and

I went there three times a week or four times a week and every single time uh not New Yorkers you might not really

understand what this means but it was a line that was an avenue and two streets long every single time for like three

weeks. I know personally that have voted then in my entire life of just met friends of

mine that have never voted in their life that could have voted in 2008 and didn't. Yeah. We're voting for the first

time this year. Well, we are in different the world is in different circumstances for sure now. So, I think

much much more of the voting now. That's just weird to me. But I enjoyed the

global leaders that were congratulating Joe Biden via their socials. Mhm. It

just has it's felt like a different energy since the election was called. It

has. I agree 100%. How is Alaska still not done counting?

Well, Trump will get Alaska. Well, of course, but Trump will get North

Carolina. I don't understand when uh his people came out and and were saying

that, oh, no, we're not finished. There's a way like they didn't add up Nevada. I mean, not Nevada. They're

still counting. Like, no, you're going to win the places you're going to win and that's still not going to be enough.

Yeah. It's more It's more impressive that Joe Biden has a chance to get to 320.

Yeah, that that speaks to voter turnout, man. Us getting us getting Pennsylvania and and all Oh, man. It's so many people

that are responsible. Like the numbers are the numbers of the white voters are up. Number of black voters are up.

Number voters are up. Like they they came out, man. They came out. The people spoke.

And this turned out to be the way that I expected. Like it started really close and I was home sad saying, "Oh my god,

why is it so close to America? We're getting shot to [ __ ] What don't you see?" Uh and then as the votes kept

getting counted up, he he pulled away with a lead. Man, I'm happy for them. I can't wait to see what he does. Uh he

already announced a Corona Corona virus task force. Yeah, he's using the guy that helped set up the NBA bubble, which

I think is interesting and dope because they did a really good job. Forward thinking. It's forward thinking. I am

with Maul. I think that Trump is going to have a blast these next two months. He's going to go crazy in there.

Absolutely. I mad. Actually, maybe not in there. Maybe just mad executive orders from his golf clubs. His golf

club. He's either going to do that or we're not going to hear a peep except for him on Twitter. It's going to be one or the other. I'm not sure which. Well,

now we can't see the tweets anymore because they took away his head of state, the head of state exemptions. So

now when you say something that's not factual, we don't see it. They just block it and that's what's been happening. Good. Yeah, they trying to

phase the Don out, man. Don, look at you. They trying to muff the only D we recognize. The only only

Don I acknowledge is Savon. Yeah. Come on, Mo. They trying to They're trying to Savon, you the real Don. Trying to muff

with the Dawn, man. I mean, speaking of, do you think he Do you think he's been a

good loser? No, Rory. I I just I'm curious about people that are fan. I'm

not asking you guys. Okay. Absolutely. I like this. This is entertainment. I love this type of [ __ ]

Two white men arguing in front of the world. This is the greatest [ __ ] ever. Do you think there's any contradiction with your whole crew of the right that

told all of us to shut up and accept the results when Hillary lost to right now?

Why you saying any hypocritical? I'm not part of any keep counting in this state. Stop the counting in this state. Yeah,

like we just want some It's the inconsistencies. I think they was just talking about the states with the higher mail in ballots. I think is what they

was talking about. That's all. That's what from what I've seen

mail in ballots at a higher level than they've ever been. And the funny part, if you watch if you watch how the voting

process played out, if the dude would have acted anything like a president,

he'd have won. Yeah. Like you lose you lose Arizona because

you spent two years [ __ ] on [ __ ] on John McCain. Even after he dies, you

still [ __ ] on him. You not thinking about how that's going to play out uh Georgia with John Lewis? Mhm. You're not

thinking about how that's going to play out at all? Like he [ __ ] himself. Yeah. He did a lot of loser [ __ ] Yeah.

Get him out of here, man. I'm I'm happy to see him go. I am. I don't care if Maul and Burn are mad about it. Yeah. Me

either in all in all in all the Bronx. Man, we can't get his tweets right now. That's what I want. I want the tweets.

Well, no. What did I say on the last episode? I think Trump when he loses is going to start a TV network or a podcast

or something. And then the reports two days later, Trump is going to start a TV network to rival Fox and he's taking

Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson, and whatever that that stupid white [ __ ] Van Jones. Jesus, Lord. You're so

aggressive. Wait, what? Jesus Christ. Oh, I thought that's what you was

talking about. No, the stupid blonde white [ __ ] It's not Van Jones. Not I

thought I was I was talking about what you said before that. My bad. He was going to take them and put uh No, I

thought I was talking about what he said before. Van Jones is bald. No, that's not And black. I know that. And a dude.

And a dude. I was I wasn't speaking to the blonde. I was saying people he gonna [ __ ] is not gender specific. That's

true. But it was gender specific. Well, you shouldn't say Rory. How about that? Uh, no. Cuz I think words are important

and when someone warrants to be called a [ __ ] it's okay. Airhorn. Yeah, it's we

shouldn't get rid of the word. We should stop using it casually for people that don't need to be called [ __ ] That

woman, whatever her [ __ ] name is, is a a stupid blonde white [ __ ] Is G is

Gain Maxwell. Okay, she's fine. How do you know? Yeah, I haven't heard anything. How do you know? Which makes I

keep seeing little things that they're shooting down [ __ ] that she's trying to do like trying to split up charge. Yeah,

right. Keep breathing. No, honestly, the last thing I heard about Gilain Maxwell

was she was being moved from cell to cell, bullpin to bullpen to avoid getting killed in a cell. Mhm. And that

was it. Putting her in a bullpen. She's dying.

Keep her in a private cell. Yeah. Like where's she at? Now, I've seen a bunch of [ __ ] about her trying to uh change

change charges her split them up by jurisdiction. I'm just saying it feels like we should check on her seeing what

happened to Jeffrey. Like, listen, her her nasty ass needs to be buried under

the under the jail. So, I don't care if she catches a deal, but this is where I fully support snitching. Snitch away. I

don't I hope you don't get a deal out of it, though. You going down with the rest of them, but you wait. You hate when

Rory gets like super political and [ __ ] gimmicky. What? Why? Rory thinks that Gileain Maxwell should be put under

the jail. Rory also follows at least 20 girls on Twitter that do the same thing that Gileain Maxwell was doing. It's not

the same thing. Don't do that. Not with Not with underage girls. Stop it. What? Stop. Do you know what she did? Of age

women, not underage. It's not the same at all. Fundamentally, that's what all this is about is that these were young

women. These were children. But but because they have charges on Gain, these are the charges. Underage women. You

don't think Gaina had the older crop? I'm not saying she did. That don't matter. That doesn't It's not a double negative where it cancels each other

out. No. Underage. You brought a bunch of underage girls to an island to get [ __ ] by old men. Yeah. Get buried

under the jail. Yeah. That's your Houston. Everyone's of age though. Yeah. That's the old difference. Huge

difference. The difference you need right there. And it'sual Houston is Rory's Island.

That is Rory's Island. Oh man, I hope Elaine's all right. And

Houston, I do fine. Houston is fine. Trust me,

actually. Oh man. No, I don't know if I'm giving it up like that. Yo, Houston is so fine. I got somebody in Houston

that's celebrating a birthday. I tried to surprise him like, "Yo, come out there, pop up like toast it up." Just

just like, "Nah, now I got it. I got it. You just stay right there in Edgewater. Okay, the season's done, bro." I was

like, "Bitch, back." See, they back. Sometimes you miss the offse. Yeah. They don't

need you right now, bro. They're not in the bubble anymore, buddy. Daddy, they're in another bubble

now. Ever since they don't need you. Ever since I've been talking about John Wall

being healthy, it's a new vid out every day. And

Rosebar will never be safe again. No. Oh, man. Rosebar. Uh, all right. What

was we talking about? Nothing. Nothing. Politics. Nothing. Gizlane. Nothing. All

right. No, I don't want to talk about uh Gilain. We're done with the election. Really? Congratulations. Uh, in Georgia,

you can still register to vote for the runoff that's going to happen in January. January. That's very important. January, Atlanta, Georgia. Let's do it.

Get to it. We are not finished. We still have a job that needs to be done.

What are you doing, Scream Man? You trying to just dictate the next topic? Yo, you cried with Van Jones,

looking at each other's shoulder. Did you Did you feel like a better father that morning? Did you Did you hug Lex

And it's easier for a whole lot of people. Come on, man. If you're Muslim in this country, you you don't have to

worry if the president doesn't want you here. If you're an immigrant, you don't have to worry if the president's going

to be happy to have you can laugh, Rory, man. Laugh, man.

The [ __ ] out of here. I paused it for a minute because the first thing I went to when I when I heard this video clip,

I went I immediately got to judging his cry. That's what I'm laughing at, not

what he's saying. Cry is what I'm saying. And Jones looks like he would have a better cry than the one that is

exhibited here. Like I expect more of Bald Black. Yo, I

smiling with Trump hit the net the next day. It's like, yo, what we doing here, man? Listen, as somebody that has uh

grandparents. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. We can't. Maul, if you have kids, look at him, man. Who are we talking about? What

prison? It's easier. It's easier. All right, let's character matters. It matters. Character

matters. Telling the truth. Telling the truth matters. Being a good person. Who's a good person, Maul? It matters.

No, all of those things are facts. You know, good and well

in this country. Stop this. You don't have to worry if the president doesn't want you here.

You're an immigrant. You don't have to worry if the president's going to be happier to have babies snatched away or

stutter cry. Goes to sleep. When you gave him stutter cry. Come on. Give it to me. Give it to me. Give it to me. Give it to me. Don't act like you wasn't

laughing at him crying though. I did laugh. But I do understand exactly what he's saying. What he's saying? But do

you understand why he's crying? That's all I want to ask you. Do you understand why he's crying? When I see this stuff, yes, I understand why he's crying. No,

the bathroom mirror for the acceptance speech, though? I mean, I thought about it. I I was actually gonna wait till I got the actual trophy to sit in in the

bathroom mirror and cry. Really let the fans know that it's good that I feel like BET is like the a decent decent

platform cuz they actually it's just easier to be a podcaster today.

[Laughter] You see how funny that look? It's the

same [ __ ]

Oh man. You're right though. BT has made it easier to be a podcaster these days. No, they did make it easier to talk

about hip-hop. Roy, can you beat up uh Van Jones? No. Probably not. Not at all.

So why you so why are you making these jokes about [ __ ] you crying? You can't laugh at [ __ ] you can't beat up. I

always do that all the time. Listen, when I saw saw uh that Javvante Davis

knockout, I understood why nobody uh bothered him in that gymnasium.

What gymn? Cuz when I first saw it, I was like, "Yo, yo, what's up? What y'all [ __ ] doing, man? Why you ain't I see

the knock I was like, "Oh, that's why that was fast." No, that that was a fast

punch. Yeah, it was fast in slow-mo. Yeah, basically. That punch was

terrifying. Your drink. Thank you. You're welcome. Parks. That punch was terrifying. I appreciate that. Um, what

was you talking about before that punch? Uh, making fun of people that could probably be I've met Van Jones once.

He's He's definitely not a small dude. I I would It would be a tussle. Where were you guys? He came to a Palooa. No, this

was at uh It would be a tussle. You heard him. That's how you know when a [ __ ] know he'll lose. He's like, "Nah,

we'll get it on for a minute." But No, no, no. Joe, I I have been 5'9 my whole

life. I know. You just got to get him on the ground. I'm not I can't square up. No, you got a grapple game. Like I got

to really scuffle with you. I got to get you on the ground and then we're we're the same height on the ground. You got

You got to mount him. You got to climb them. Climb them like a tree. You listen, man. I'm in it's all guys. I

mean, it's all guys. Whoa. Whoa. You.

[Music] Wait. We was going somewhere before these fans jump. Yeah. Come on. You guys

appreciate it. That was like surprised. I think we were all actually really surprised that we won. I watched the

show and they never aired it. Yeah. So, it was it was just Thank you to BT. I got to air. We won. I know. Salute to,

you know, all the other the hot hot new hip hop. Double XXL, Breakfast Club. Shout out to the losers. Hip hop DX

Complex. I was just honored. Honored to be in the same category. You [ __ ] lost with grace.

Honored to be for y'all to be the losers I won against. Yeah.

But thank you to BET though, man. Yeah. I thought it was hilarious cuz we haven't talked about hip-hop in like four years.

Can we give him a little hip? Maybe not not not so much. There is nothing

there's nothing hip-hop about this podcast. A little hip. You want to give us the R&B awards? We in there. Oh yeah,

that's that's a clean that's a clean win. I was happy we won, but it just reminded me how long we've actually been

gone. That last podcast that we were in studio. We were guessing about the outcome of this award. We gave both our

losing and winning speeches. We did. Um that same podcast I received a phone

call that said my dad fell in the bathroom. His knee gave out on him. Um he's awesome now. Prayers to my dad. Uh

round of applause. He's really awesome now. My dad has had a really rough few years, man. Honestly, uh but he's good

now. The the I didn't say this. I don't think the knee that he got surgery on,

the surgery was done incorrectly. So at 6:00 a.m. with him just going to the bathroom, the knee gave out on him. He

fell in the bathroom. when you're 60s something and you fall, it's really

dangerous. He broke his fribrula or some [ __ ] I can't pronounce. Yeah. And he went to the hospital and they said they

would rather not do surgery on him and he was really upset about that. I don't think people talk about how common that

is because my my dad is went through similar things with getting bad surgeries like surgery just not going

correctly and you [ __ ] yourself up more and it becomes a pattern where you're constantly trying to fix something that

they [ __ ] up in surgery like you know my pops been through that that's not not brought up how much surgery [ __ ] up.

Yeah. Yeah. No, it does. I know a lot of people that have had botched knees and shoulders and [ __ ] So they

were telling Pop that they needed whatever whatever bone it was, they needed it to heal correctly uh before he

could walk again correctly. Um and while he was really upset about that at first, amazing what a couple of fine nurses

will do. I just heard his energy shift over the next few weeks. Like he called talking

about, yo man, they say I walk better than ever if I just stay and listen to the nurses. Lord, I mean if I just do

what they say. So I'm not in a rush to head home. Man, I think I think it takes about 6 weeks for this to heal. That's

what he said. He said, "I was trying to get out of here in 3 weeks, but I'm going to stay the six to eight." Yeah. Yeah. I know. I know. I know. No, I

know. I know. Yeah. Yeah. No, you got you got your TV and a nurse with good energy, we'll call it. Yeah. Chilling.

Yeah. It's all about the energy. Yeah. He's right up the street from a BBQ's, I think. Go. Hey, it's Van.

[Music]

Hello, this is Joe Button from the Joe Buddton podcast. Co free, you know the [ __ ] vibes. Who is this? This is Van

[ __ ] Lean, also Coree. What's up, Van Lean? You're not the hottest van this

week. Hey, Van, why you was crying like that on CNN? Very true. It's the It's the battle of the vans, man. Why you was

crying like that on CNN, man? A [ __ ] I never cried on

[ __ ] Van who wins who wins the battle of the vans? That's what we called about.

Um I mean it depends on the criteria, right? The election. You know what I'm saying? I mean the the election I would

have to say he won. N he cried on CNN, bro. Yeah, he crushed it. I mean he I tell I tell you why. Number one, he lost

for himself. But in the Battle of the Vans, you got to say he won because [ __ ] is thinking I'm him. [ __ ] is

not thinking he's me. I can appreciate that response. All right. Well, let's let's do let's do a

quick versus one round. Let's do Oh, no. Van Lean wins that

Kanye rant against Van Jones's crying rant. I'm going Van Le

Van Lean wins that one. I'm sorry, man. Cuz man, I think you was about to cry in front of the and Lean Ryan's with

Nathan, my favorite hot dog. Come on, man. Give it up. Give it up. I'm [ __ ] with that. I'm glad I'm glad. But, you

know, a couple of weeks ago, me and Van Jones got on the phone and it got a little spicy.

No, the truth. I I called I called I called

Van Jones up to um could be only one fan in California Higher Learning uh with

you know our friends over at the ringer which you love Joe. I called I I I

called him up um and I had made a video back in the day where I had pointed out

all the differences between me and Van Jones and it turned out that Van Jones

didn't like that [ __ ] So me You don't say. Oh, so you've been hating on Van

Jones. I Van Jones I didn't know that before I called Van Lean Van Jones. So don't attack me. I roll with you.

No, I just wanted I mean the whole video you just wanted clarity on some of this [ __ ] right? If you watch the video, I'm

biging the [ __ ] up. I mean, one thing that you can't really take away from it is he's done a lot of great work for prison reform and all of that [ __ ] And

I said all of that [ __ ] in the video. I also just said that I don't want [ __ ] people walking around thinking I hang

out with the [ __ ] Trumps. I'm not [ __ ] with that. So that was the whole thing. And me and him, it got real spicy

and then we pieced it up at the end. So I guess it's all good now. But I don't know how I guess it's all good, man. It

doesn't sound like it sound like you still want to fade the battle of the bands.

Who will win? I just Yeah. But I just don't want to be that [ __ ] That [ __ ] got a lot of [ __ ] going on. It's good

for him. Shout out to him and everything he got going. Yo, do you hear what Van is saying? It need to be me. Yo, that

[ __ ] got a lot of good kicking with the Trump. He got a lot of good [ __ ] going on. He don't need me to [ __ ] that up.

This is craziness, man. I didn't I didn't even call for this. I didn't call for this. Van, I only called for you to judge Van Jones's cry on a scale of 1 to

10. In terms of what? What's the mention? How sincere it was? Oh, he got you

shook. This was the worst cry. He want to know the terms of the cry.

I want to know. I mean, to me, if you really want to be real with it, I don't

think it's ever a time to go up there. I don't think it's ever a time to go on TV and cry because a white man wants

something. So, like it it don't matter what it is. So, like if it it a white

dude getting more power, even if that's the guy you want, there's no reason to go up there and cry. But that is there's a lot of people that felt moved to

tears. A lot of people were crying not because Biden won, but because Trump is gone. I can understand that. But I can

also understand a lot of people looking at him and going, "Those are your friends. So why are you acting like the

world is so much better without them when we all know you [ __ ] with them?" That's all I'm trying to say. In Van

Jones defense, I don't think my friends are decent people either. And also, that's kind of discounting uh Kla Harris

being part of that ticket. Van Van, listen. Uh, listen. This is my uh this

is my final question. What do you think of Kiki Palmer kissing that white dude? Her boyfriend. Oh, man. Do her, man. I

don't give a [ __ ] I need you to speak, man. Kiki can't do no wrong for me. Do

her, man. That's fine. Shout out to I don't give I don't [ __ ] care. Kiki's great. So, Van Jones can do wrong, but

not Okay. All right. All right. Can't do any wrong. All right. I understand. No,

I think I think I think I did the science on this one. Van, I appreciate you. Thank you for

calling us back. Uh I'm going to try to diffuse the smoke coming your way in recent in the days coming.

I'm with it. Well, bring all the smoke. I'm glad everybody up here help. I'm with it. I'm with it. I'm with it. I'm

glad I'm glad everybody I'm glad y'all back. I'm glad everybody up there help you, man. Thank you, man. We appreciate it. We love you. Thank you for checking

in with us, bro. All right, bro. Peace. Rory just informed me behind the scenes

that Van Jones is actually a really big dude. So yeah, you might I'm apologizing

in advance to Van Jones. You know I don't want no smoke. That was Rory McFarrell

and Van Lean, formerly of TMZ. [ __ ] them [ __ ] up in my name.

That mean All right. So, I think we've waited long

enough, man. We waited long enough. Time to get into what we got to get into.

Oh, man. I hate it here. I do. I really I really really hate it here.

Hey, hey,

real morbid for me. when the lyrics start to resonate with the way you transition. Yeah. I went and listened to

the albums. His whole discoraphy is just like, damn, it's here. It's all kind of in the

lyrics. No, it's in there. Yeah, it's in there. For those of you that are unaware, uh King Bon was murdered uh

over the weekend. Was that the weekend? I think it was the weekend. Uh Friday, right? King Bon was murdered November

7th. Yeah, Friday over the weekend, uh he was at a at a little lounge in uh in

Atlanta. Video surfaced of whatever altercation broke out afterward and

unfortunately King Vaughn was murdered along with two of his friends. Apparently, the police were involved in

this shootout. Uh and again, it's just a really, really tragic situation for me.

For me, it was tough to come in here today. I'll be honest with y'all. Like I was real glad that we had that break

when it came cuz sometimes it's just difficult to come in here and speak about the things

that are going on in our culture um when you have to feel it like when

you're impacted by it. And for me to continuously see video of our black

kings that I enjoy being murdered, there's something that it does to you psychologically.

Um, I go back to when uh Nipy was murdered and what that did to us while

we were on tour. Uh, the way that it paused us all, even Parks and Rory as

white dudes, even Ian is Ke Ian and Keeve as white dudes. It paused us and made for a really difficult show when

you have to witness that. Um, Triple X when we had to witness that the video.

It's just really, really, really disturbing. And for me it's tough because they keep they keep they keep

taking the [ __ ] that I like. Mhm. And that that bothers me. It hits me a

little bit. Like when they took Triple X, he was one of the young dudes that I liked a lot. When they took Juicew

World, he was one of the young dudes that I liked a lot. When they took Big L, he was one of the young dudes that I

liked a lot. when they took Pac, when they took Big, when Pun left. Like, for

me, that's that's where I'm conflicted in hip-hop because I'm so passionate about it and I love it so much. But when

you're that invested and then these types of tragedies occur, it really

makes you pause and take a step back. Um, and for me, Van was one of those dudes that I liked a lot. I spoke about

him on his podcast quite a bit since I learned about him. Um, and to just see

it is really disturbing, man. Really disturbing how instantaneous death can

be. I was sharing with y'all off mic that uh in my ear in my in the earlier days of

me having COVID, probably the first and second night, I was really afraid of not

waking up the next day. M um and I said to myself in my head I was like if I

don't wake up tomorrow I'm going to be really really mad about going in my sleep. But it was the first time that I

was face to face with that thought like sometimes we take life for granted that way where we don't think about you know

the next day not the next day but uh shortly after Van passed I was in the shower and this has nothing to do with nothing. I'm just sharing right now cuz

it's a podcast. Um I was in the shower and I put on a song that I liked a lot and I said to myself, "Wow, look how I

take this moment for granted." like if I were in my last moments, all I would want to do is listen to some of my

favorite songs. Um, you just never know what your last thoughts would be and

when you would have to have them. So, this is always a really disturbing conversation with me when I got to come

in here and fake the funk like I'm okay when I'm not because every time one of these deaths occur, uh, it reignites a

trauma that was pre-existing. Uh, it reignites paranoia that was pre-existing. It just reignites a lot of

things, man. I I'll pass to y'all so y'all can tell me about how y'all felt during some of this stuff. But for me, I

didn't look forward to coming in here speaking about one of the young artists that I enjoyed a lot being murdered and

being shot to death 10 to 15 feet away from him. Mhm.

Yeah, it was um for me it was, you know, because I had just started really locking in with his

music and uh when we did the Zoomcast, I had I had mentioned his album and I was like, "Yo, you got a really good project." Um and then, you know,

listening to some of his older stuff and looking at interviews online with him.

It's just sad, man, because a lot of these young these young brothers that are in this in this culture, um, just

hearing the way they talk, it's like they're so desensitized to death. The

way they mention they tell stories of their friends and their homeboys that are no longer here, it's like, damn.

Like, every time you bring up a story of a good time you had, it's like, rest in peace him or rest in peace this guy. Rest in. And it's like, you know, it

something has to be done. Uh, I don't know what I don't know how you begin to

change change this cycle, this this trauma that we keep living in, but um,

we have to do something because on one hand, I love the fact that these young dudes have found their voices and found their sound with the drill music and um,

found a way to entertain and make a living for themselves and their families. But I don't want these dudes to be

living their their lyrics like this. Mhm. Like I don't want these dudes to keep dying, to keep killing each other

and keep Yeah. I would like them to live long enough to enjoy the fruits of their lab. Yeah. Like I want to see these dudes grow old. I want to see these

dudes become businessmen and venture out and do other things. Like this dying at 26 in the street like that. These are

children, man. Yeah. This is this is crazy. These are children still at 26 years old. Yeah. This is this isn't we

not supposed to be seeing [ __ ] like this. This isn't normal. And I don't want people to try to normalize this cuz

it's not this is not normal. We shouldn't be here talking about a young man, 26 years old, that just started

tapping into his talent and getting ready to spread his wings and, you know,

elevate his life to to now, you know, being killed in the streets after a

night of celebration because I believe they were celebrating the album release that and uh signing of a bunch of his

friends had just gotten a deal um as well. Yeah, it was a celebratory night

from what I saw. And kind of to to piggyback off what you were saying, well, I watched uh the

interview with Make your own point, don't King Bon's um

manager and uh academics and when I first saw the footage of of the entire

incident when I watched I was like, "All right, man. He was just he was dude was

fighting like it could have just stayed to a fight so easily in that moment. Like it was a a scuffle that could have

ended as a scuffle. Mhm. And I I hate that. And I mean I'm not just going to

put it specific to to this generation or anything like that, but I do wish that

points could just get across with a a fight. Like I'm never going to be this

naive person that thinks that we should just violence should end because I I just I know human beings, right? Gun

violence though, it is a bit unnecessary in so many situations. It it was a

fight. And then when I watched this interview with with King Vaughn's manager of the situation and him saying that

that Vaughn with that situation was so vocal about not doing anything

gunrelated and say, "Nah, I just want to prove a point with fighting, nothing

else, and move on with my life." Mhm. It's so easily avoided when you take

your ego out of [ __ ] and just take a ass whooping. Yeah, but that's the thing. You say

that, but men don't do that. Yeah, it's it's hard for men to remove. I'm not saying like it's easy. I I I just No,

but you're pointing at what the issue is. Yeah. It's an ego thing. Yeah. But it's, you know, again, man, I'm I guess

I'm just getting older, but I'm at that age where I understand that words have power. And if we keep making these these

types of songs and this music to where it's promoting a certain lifestyle, then exactly how can we stop this cycle?

You know what I mean? But you enjoy that music with realer content. So speak speak to that confliction that exist. I

do. That's why I just said I don't want them to live that like when you when you're making music and you got a deal a record deal and you're now putting out

music and you're traveling and you're touring and this that to me you're out. You know what I mean? So don't you don't

still be living that is what I'm saying. Like you're out of that. You can still paint that picture of what you came through and what you've been through and

give us that. But I don't want to see these dudes actively involved in beefs

and shootouts and this type of [ __ ] because it's like y'all have talent. This is a talent. Like this drill music

or whatever you want to call it, however y'all want to categorize it, it's all hip-hop to me. But these are young dudes

from a from a a culture that have found their voices and found their sound and are painting these pictures for us that

don't know what that lifestyle is about. And we champion it when we hear it. But it's more so I champion it more so

have a responsibility also in that anybody from the culture of hip-hop has a responsibility to this. Anybody

anybody that's from this hip-hop culture because at the end of the day what's going to happen is they're going to start banning hip-hop artists from these

venues. It's not just drill artists. They're going to stop banning hip-hop music from

a lot of these venues and then that affects the entire culture. But at the same time, I champion it because I

recognize these these are group of young men that found their sound. They found a

sound to uplift their lives and uplift themselves and uplift the people around them and have a good time and enjoy

themselves. But sometimes, as we know, things go left because of egos involved. Somebody said this online, somebody said

this in a record. I'm taking some responsibility from a consumer standpoint

because this is the music that I champion, right? Like be because because

we understand the conditions that some of us have to come up in. Mhm. And the immense amount of respect for the people

I have that choose to live their life a certain way because, you know, I can identify with not valuing life the way I

maybe should have at a certain time. So, it brings you back there. Um, and you

kind of root for them to get out. Mhm. But when you have these situations where

like how Pop Smoke was murdered and listening to his music was then difficult for me because they married

each other too closely. Mhm. It almost made me rethink my stance on industry plants, the guys who come in and just

say a bunch of [ __ ] that they never did, get some money behind them and pop off. Well, if that's the safe way to do it,

then cool. But why can't our black acts get that industry plant pass? Like, why

is it our young black entertainers have to be held to the standard of did he did he do it? Was he really like that? Did

he really roll like that? Is he real? Was his gang like that? Yeah. We never ask that of anyone else, right? Like

it's disturbing. It's disturbing to me. And while this is a a epidemic happening in Chicago, if that's the right word, if

you're viewing it from a much broader sense, like listen, we we speak behind

the scenes. I I told y'all how it felt going home after Nipy was murdered. M like when my household my household is

in the disarray and I got a woman in the house that's talking to me about a bunch of woman type [ __ ] and I'm like oh you

don't know like I can't even be angry at you. You don't know the trauma and the

psychological damage it does to me. You don't know that it's like a bullet went

through me watching Nipy be murdered in cold blood in his own hood and then having to

travel in these same circles in the industry. Like I know women like to make

[ __ ] like touring and studio life glamorous, but the reality of it is if

you're a man and you're traveling in this space, your your PTSD is at an

all-time high. We're traveling and and taking bags from strangers, landing in

strangers cities. We're in st the care of strangers. We link up with chicks

that are essentially strangers. Like we just do a lot of [ __ ] that puts us in

that predicament. Yeah, without question. I mean uh when

we did uh when we did that Texas run and we were all exhausted. Houston was our

last last stop and I felt like none of us had slept. We did Denver. Three

cities in Texas and we're long getting hype about Denver. Yeah. Right. Relax. And I remember wanting to use that

two hours of rest that we would have to like try to catch a nap before we did meet and greets. Yeah. And our security

at the time knew knew J Prince's brother and was like, "Yo, you want to come

meet?" And it was like, "Of course." Right. Just off that paranoia of safety

all the time to check in with certain people in certain cities when you're on tour. Even if you're only in there for a

few hours, like, "Oh, I plan on going out tonight. I got to check in with the right people because I've seen what happens when you don't. Yeah. I was

talking about the amount of video shoots that I've been at and been a part of where it was on another nigga's block

and then the hood came out like, "Yo, who said you can be here?" Like, yeah, who are you in these cameras? Like, who

did you speak to? Yeah. No, that's that's a real authorized. Yeah, that's I mean I I can understand that. I can

understand, you know, those type of things. But I I you know just the way that this happened to me you

know and I never met I never met Van and I but I wanted to meet him right but

that's another reason so I know and when I say that it's because I'm I'm from the hood you know what I'm

saying who didn't know the young dude that was on his way like how many times have we seen the story as a young dude

from the hood is on his way he makes it and he's about to crack that ceiling something tragic happens you know what

I'm saying like we see it all the time and it's like a reoccurring thing, but I only feel like it's in our culture, though. And to me, that's the issue.

It's like, why does this keep happening in our culture? Like, why do we keep seeing this? Why does this feel normal?

Cuz even now, it's like it's almost like a this ain't going to be the last time we see this. Not at all. You understand

what I'm saying? So, why does it feel Why does that Why does it feel normal? And that's the issue I have. And I don't

know what I can do to change it or to help. It feels normal because when

[ __ ] play like that, it's normal. Like the ratio of successful It's not

normal to bury your friends, man. This [ __ ] is not normal. I'm saying the ratio of [ __ ] to successfully make it out of

the streets would be low. It feels normal because we've experienced this

quite a bit. It hurts even more because, you know, how old was Stack when he died? Exactly. [ __ ] 24. Yeah, 24, I

think. 24 25. He was young. But when I had that talk with Stack, rest in peace

Stack. Squad up, y'all know the vibes. Uh, Far Rock, you know what's good. Listen, when I had that talk with Stack

back then, yo, man, you got to get out of there. It's one way in, it's one way out. You

can help the hood without actually being there. Like, he made me sound like an idiot. Like, [ __ ] You talking about

leaving my hood and helping them? No, I came up there. My [ __ ] is there. We rocking. I don't want to rock if I'm not

rocking with them. M like that be the vibes. I get that when I see King Vaughn, the video of him making $100,000

coming back, divvying it up between his squad. Like I get that when I see Oblak uh getting together and mourning uh the

loss of King Von. Like I I get I get those things. Like I get it. It hurts

for me because when you look at these people's trajectory, right? Like now King Vaughn is gone and the legacy is

what? A claimed street [ __ ] that did what he had to do for a little bit and

then got murdered. But in 10 to 15 years, King Vaughn would have employed

maybe over 200 people. Yeah. Taking care of over 50 families. Like been in a

position to really make an impact in the grand scheme of things in Chicago. Yeah.

Um, the same way. Listen, for me it's personal because when [ __ ] almost blew my brains out, like if if the Joe Button

story stops there, it's not a good one. Not at all. No. Hey, and and 23y old

make 24 year old made pump it up, made a little bit of noise, hung out in the hood, got murdered, it's over. [ __ ] it.

He was depressed. He did drugs. He robbed a few [ __ ] He had a record. He wasn't a clean kid. And he's gone now.

like it wouldn't have got into he's an he's an owner of a network. It wouldn't have got into but that's what I'm

saying. Now now we see cuz fortunately that that did not happen and now we see the story

of you surviving that and the things that change cuz how old were you when that happened? Uh 23 four five somewhere

around there. Yeah. 15 years at minimum, we've seen what you've done hadn't

survived that early 20s of your life and how much you've changed people's lives. And it's it's unfortunate when you see

these things from from Nipy to Pop Smoke to him like what could have been in 15

years had these people been able to stay here, what they could have done is what like

really depresses me with these situations. like it gets me almost scared to enjoy one of these uh newer

dudes. Well, that's what it was for me. That's exactly what happened with me. Like I said, I in listening to his

album, you know, it's I heard it. I was like, "Oh, like and then especially when

I found out he only really started rapping two years ago." So, I was like,

"Well, damn." Okay. Like he he he has an ear. He he has a sound. He has a story.

It made me appreciate Lil Baby a lot more than I already do. And he's one of the newer acts that I have all the

respect in the world for cuz he is a beast. But I see but this is I see a lot of I see a lot of similarities with King

Vaughn and Lil Baby. Well, no, that's why I brought brought him up because I've heard stories about Lil Baby that

shall go unsaid. Mhm. How he's conducted his business since he got his shot seems

to be all business, even if it's not. Mhm. Mhm. Yeah. It's um it's just

tragic, man. Like you won't hear Lil Baby beefing with a soul publicly. No, no, no, no, no. You won't see him

retaliating publicly. Like you're just not going to see some of these things. And it disturbs me that we feel like

once we get in, like we still have to be who we used to be. Well, I guess I guess

the catch 22 there and the point you guys are making with the music and the

energy that you're putting out there with the music is that the authenticity

of music is what gets people to love artists. And I don't even mean that in whether it be a violent way, anything

music authenticity, people just are attracted to it. Yeah. So that's where I

think the catch 22 is there because why Van was so successful and why people

really [ __ ] with him was cuz you felt the authenticity and everything that he said not only whether it been violent

like I he's a good storyteller too like right you just felt the authenticity when he was on any song. So that's where

I guess it's how do you do that as an artist if you come from this environment and you really are part of that life

more or less to not be not be authentic in your music there are I'm asking a

question I have an answer there's been a lot of artists I mean I think to like uh

Cream for example a Wuang song not to be an old head but it was talking about that life but not necessarily

glamorizing it like there are ways to kind It's maybe not

abandon it. You can still talk about it without glamorizing. I'm not saying that's the reason why he passed because

I'm a little older now and can hear a Von song and realize that he's not

really glamorizing it. I to a younger person so glamorous when you listen to that album. That's what I'm saying. I I

don't take what he's saying, but again, this could be someone that's old. Had I been 20 when I heard that, maybe I could

think he was glamorizing. But you listen and tell ain't faking. Yeah. And I don't

think he's glamorizing it. It's not so much glamorizing it. It's just a It's just an honest point of view. It's an

honest story and you take from it what you will. This is this is their reality.

But that's what I'm saying. I just think that we got to do better as a culture of, you know, finding a way to tell me

about how we can do better. A a war is coming more. And I probably shouldn't even say that

on a podcast, but I mean, it's the elephant in the room. But this is what I'm saying. So it's it's the elder

statesman. Are we supposed to ignore this? No, I'm just saying we do know war is coming. What can I do as elder

statesman to stop it? But if you look at the way things are handled and the way things are usually rectified, it's it

comes from the from the older the elders have to step in and and sit down and sit

down. They can only step in before someone's murdered. I understand that. But even Okay. So what happen how do you step in after someone's been murdered?

It's a cycle. So at some point, regardless, you have to stop the cycle.

You understand what I'm saying? Like you have to at some point the older the elder statesman have to step in and say, "Yo, listen. What's going on here? This

this is not what this is about. This is not what this culture is about. This is not what y'all have a real opportunity

to make a lot of money and to provide for your families and your friends and to really like change change lives. We

can't keep putting somebody in the grave before,

you know, these are these are these are young men. Yeah. 25 26 is your old likeension too. Yeah. This is this is

craziness. This and I don't understand why there's not a bigger like

a louder voice or somebody that's not really like and I'm not saying there's people that's not, but I'm just saying I

feel like this needs to be everyone in the hip-hop culture needs to be sitting down addressing this issue. M like you

can't expect for people to stream your music from other, you know, older artists and from these cities. Like [ __ ]

all that. Help these young kids out that's going through this war. I saw a few of the o uh older acts in in past

weeks come out and say that it is cool to live. It it is it's the coolest [ __ ] in the world to live. But at the same

time, just saying that is not enough. Like we have to we have to do something like something has to cuz this is Bro,

this is craziness. Like this is absolute craziness that we keep seeing these young men die like this on on the

internet and on our phones. Like this is crazy. Bad enough that we continue to see videos of our young kings being

murdered. I woke up this morning to autopsy photos being leaked to the

timeline. I I didn't see that very Whoever leaked that [ __ ] is sick and

[ __ ] you. Yeah. A war is coming and it's going to be sick. The least of our concerns should

be the autopsy pics leaking. What's leaking in the next few months? The same way we said Trump is Trump got some [ __ ]

coming in the next two months. Like what is happening in in 2021? It's gearing up to look like a a nut year. Like y'all

thought 2020 was sick. Yeah. I'm I'm frightened. I'm frightened

by it all. I am, man. And these [ __ ] have children. Yeah, multiple children.

When I was when I was in my bed with CO having difficulty breathing, scared to

go to sleep cuz I wasn't certain that I would wake up. The first thing that came to my mind was my children. Like, oh

[ __ ] man. I'm not trying to leave my kids just yet. They need me still. When my oldest called me to check on me, it

reminded me I was an old [ __ ] But what it said was, "Oh [ __ ] my kids like love me. Oh, look at you." like I I have to

be here. I have to I have to I have to do my part to actually be here. Yeah. For you. And I don't think that feeling

escapes street [ __ ] I don't I think [ __ ] do what they have to do hoping to make it home to their kids at night. So

when you So when you don't do that and your kids are so young and precious and

fragile. Listen, man. my my prayers and condolences to not only his family and

friends, but all of his fans, all of Chicago, all of the black men out there

that suffer having to watch these videos continuously. Like, it's tough. It's

tough. It is. Yeah. Rest in peace. And uh we're trying to find the names of the

other two uh gentlemen that that were murdered as well.

rest in peace to Mark Blakeley. Um, if we can find the other name, apologies on that, but but rest in peace to to

everybody that that was killed in that incident. Um, prayers prayers to Dirk. I know I

know Durk has has had a rough year. Yeah. Um, so my my prayers are are certainly with him. I smile when I see

Dirk. I smile when I see G Herbo. I smile when I see Favio. There's a few

of these [ __ ] out here that I smile when I see them cuz I just get it. I get

it. Like Dirk looks like somebody that's lived a little bit and wants to live a little longer. He looks that way to me.

G Herbo looks that way to me and all the family pigs fab and all that [ __ ] I I appreciate that aspect of it. I don't

care how big you are with your music. I love you more than I love your music. All of you. All of you. Yeah. Living is

cool, man. Yeah. Getting old was cool for sure. Yeah, tell me about it. Well,

prayers to uh Devon Bennett and his family.

Absolutely. I mean, prayers for his children. Timothy Leaks, 22 years old,

charged and arrested with the murder of King Vaughn. 22 years old, a child.

Mhm. And that's what I'm saying. This is sick all around. all around the board in prison for the

rest of his life, right? So, it's like for what? What is all this? Like, what is all this for? What is all this about?

Like, scream man, pull up uh pull up what TI had to say about this cuz I do think

it's important that it's mentioned. Uh TI came out and and did an Instagram

post. It said, "Atlanta is a beautiful progressive city filled with black excellence. We uplift each other and win

together. Stop coming here to kill each other. That [ __ ] has played out. Signed management. And apparently he caught a

lot of backlash. His caption said, "Handle your beefs in your city. Thanks in advance. Handle your beefs,

your encaps." I know it's it's TI and we love TI, but

this was distasteful to me. I thought so as well. I'll be honest. Very distasteful. I don't see what the point

of saying that at that time is going to help anything.

Yeah, even if it's right, it's even when you're right, the timing is

not I didn't like the response to the backlash either. I'll be honest. And Tip is my guy. Uh but his response was, "I

don't speak ill of my allies. My last post had nothing to do with King Vaughn. Y'all grossly mistaken. I have no motive

or intention to do harm or malice to cats I'm cool with. My family's hearts goes out to them and I've expressed this

to the people in his life that matter most in this situation. That's all I am concerned with. His caption says, "But I

know IG ain't the place for understanding and miserable people love to keep up [ __ ] so be easy." No, TI,

you're just wrong here. Yeah, I [ __ ] with Tip, too. But um pull it back up.

You can't make a statement like that and say you're not speaking on that. That was that's the most current situation. It was a day or two days after the

situation happened. Like Tip, I love you. You know, one of my favorite rappers, but that was [ __ ] rapping. He's

one of our favorite human beings. That's why this threw me off like this. But you

can't say this when there's Atlanta [ __ ] that have been involved. Yeah.

Like this is exactly the situation that you're talking about, TI. And and even if it's not, the timing of it makes it

appear that way. Mhm. So, you bright enough to understand that that's how people are feeling when when you see

this. Um, pull up 50's reply to me uh for me, please.

I didn't I didn't catch it. The 50 reply. It was a very 50 cent reply. Mhm.

Oh man. 50 cent 50 cent reply. It's up. It's up towards the top.

after the TI uh after the TI response. Uh and 50 says, "Hey, TI, you got to

chill. You're bugging for saying anything. They got casualties. This is real [ __ ]

I don't know what you was thinking, but rethink it now. They are hurting. They love that boy. He was a way out. I bet

you don't even realize they will kill you for what you just said. What hood are you from again? Come on now. It's

quiet time. And some of us subscribe to what quiet

time means. The last sentence is the most important. I don't need to expound on that. No, no, no, no. All of it is

important because it's all saying the same thing. Just the last sentence when you take out all the theness of [ __ ]

Come on now. It's time to be quiet. Yeah, but the sentence right before it says he doesn't even realize that

they'll kill you for what you said. That's he's telling you why it should be quiet time right this second. The the

streets the streets are active right now. Yeah. It ain't for social media commentary. It ain't for theatrics. It a

it's not a time to be performative. And that's what the internet makes a lot of people do. Cling on to a topic and get

performative. Sometimes it's not time for that. Yeah. I would hate to be the

family member of someone that has been murdered and the video is leaked online and I have to just constantly see these

people with their thoughts on things. I'm not trying to be funny to TI. Again,

that's my guy. But that would hurt me. It would disturb me and it would

elongate my traumas is what it would do. I I wouldn't want to see that. I wouldn't. Since he's passed, there's

been all types of stories released. I'm waiting for when he's going to get a chance to rest in peace.

Some people may say he doesn't deserve to rest in peace. I'm not one of those people that subscribe to being insensitive when people are taken from

us. That's not who I am. Uh there's all types of hey his friends was robbing

him. They left and went to steal [ __ ] out of his crib. Which uh his his manager uh in that interview as well all

that and was like nobody robbed anything from King Vaughn. His friends were not

his friends. They were his family, his brothers. He would have died for them. Two of his friends died for him. That's

the type of crew that they came from. I thought that was offensive. A young a young lady a young lady that wasn't

there when all of this transpired uh attempted to let us know his last

words allegedly over the internet. People are sick and weird, man. she

who apparently had had dealings with King Vaughn um in the in the past year

or whatever had said she went to her spiritual advisor and cool. I uh I've

been around people that I get I get readings done too. I get it. I I've my my mom has done it. I've had my aunt has

done it. A lot of my family has done the spiritual let me try to talk. I understand people mourning that way. I

totally get it. Sure. But to then take the information from a a spiritual

adviser, whoever the [ __ ] it is, we don't know their background. We don't know nothing at all. To then go on the

internet and give information about his last words against his own friends that are grieving him and two of their other

friends is is irresponsible to me. But you got to keep in mind with all of this, these are these are these are

young people that were young and mourning. And yet they're young and mourning. And you know, when you have a

when you have a phone in your hand and you have access to the world and the internet, it's hard to tell people what to do and what not to do. And I

understand, you know, I mean, we've all we've all had to bury friends and loved ones and mourn and you know, it it it's

just to me it's just more importantly, all of this aside, more importantly is

what do we do from here? You know what I mean? And and like I said, the elder statesmen in hip-hop, like some we have

they we we have to do something as as as a culture, as hip-hop, as as just black

men. We have to do something about this because this is a huge problem. And we

can't keep just letting weeks go by and we forget about it and back to regular life and you know acting like this

didn't happen and this is not something that's still going on because this is this is a real issue and we have to do

something like this. This is we can't normalize this. We can't act like this is just another day because this is not

this shouldn't be our reality. Because a lot of people that are living and walking around, they they they don't

even experience [ __ ] like this. Yeah. This is not their reality at all. So, it shouldn't be ours.

Yeah, I I I agree. Um well, yeah, again,

prayers to everybody involved on on every side.

Dirk, especially my prayers. Know you've had a rough year, man. Yeah, I'm praying

for all the Chicago dudes, man. I'm praying for Oblak. I'm praying for his family, friends,

loved ones, fans, people that he supported, took care of,

people that relied on him. And I read that he owned his masters, so his family does get his royalties. Yeah. Hopefully

that's true. Thank God. Hopefully that's true. And if so, thank God he's on with Empire. He's with Empire. He's on Empire. So that should be true. It's

true. It's definitely true. Uh and and I'm sure whatever he he took to recoup is not much. Uh and his manager was

saying they had nine or 10 videos on the tuck done already. Oh wow. Got a bunch of music. Um so so in despite of a very

tragic situation, at least there is some light knowing that there'll still be some income going to his kids and to his

family. This is what Van Jones should be crying about on CNN. Shut up more. No, I'm dead

serious. This is the type of [ __ ] he should be crying about.

Who's gap band going against? What you say? Who's gap band going against? Before we get into that, rest in peace,

Alex Tbeck as well. Yes, absolutely. huge part of a lot of our childhoods, a

lot of our upbringing. Um, boy did he go out with grace and dignity past past

upbringing my whole life. We still like literally I would still watch Jeopardy as an adult. That used to be our [ __ ]

Like when we hang out, me and Gift and and Ram and everybody on weekends, we're making music. I put Jeopardy on in the background just cuz it's like I don't

know the random thing to put on the background. I didn't have cable for mad long so I would just you'd get the the

channels you get and it would be Jeopardy. Right. Right. That was it. It was my TV show. Yeah.

Yeah. Call you back. But uh yeah, rest in peace, Alex Tbec.

Pray prayers to his family. Um I I did think he was he was doing

well. I mean, I know he's been battling cancer for for quite some time. [ __ ] cancer.

[ __ ] cancer. Rest in peace, Alex. Alex Tbeck, we love you. We miss you, man.

There's somebody else that passed away as well. Oh, there's an actor that died. There's an actor that died.

Oh, don't make me find it myself. An actor that passed. Oh. Um. Hey. No. Did

we record Sean Connory? Oh my. Wait a [ __ ] second. Wait a

goddamn minute. [ __ ] Shan Connory, man. That's not

who I was talking about, but that hurt when you said it.

Let me find who I was speaking about cuz that is real. Yes, Bert Bolasco. That is who I'm

speaking about. Thank you, Bert Bolasco.

Let's stay together and pitch actor dies at 38. And though I wasn't so familiar

with him, when I when their age is posted there, it pauses me as well. 38 years old. Yeah. Like, come on, man.

Come on. 2020 enough already. That's how I feel. Rest in peace, Bishop

Rance Allen, too. One of the greatest gospel voices we had. Rest in peace. Yes.

Rest in peace King Vaughn, Alex Tbeck, Bur Balasco, Sean Connory,

Juicew World, Nipy, Triple X, Big Pac, all our hip-hop grace and

legends. We appreciate you. We love you. We're

here to celebrate your life, the impact that you made. Big, the people that you inspired. Big

Whitney Houston. What happened? Big and Whitney Houston. Uh, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Oh, yeah. Yes, sir.

Biggie Smalls, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Congratulations to that great Yep.

Congratulations to that king, his entire family. Rest in peace, of course. Yes, sir. Uh, this might be a stupid

question. How do you gentlemen feel about this? About big uh getting into the rock and roll. Yes, sir. belongser.

It belong. Yeah, I about to say belongs there. Whitney, but did he make rock? I

mean that he made roll. I don't know if he made rock. He made

roll. Yeah, not a bad shot. Uh I mean that's the name of that Hall of Fame.

Everyone in there is not a rock and roll artist. Yeah, at all. At all. I mean I guess Run DMC kind of made rock and roll

music. Is Kendrick in there? No. Yeah, I think you I thought I saw something he wanted.

He got a bullet. It don't matter about he's got a bullet. He's cool. It's coming. That's a big deal. If you put

somebody in the Rocky Hall of Fame in the middle of their career. Yeah, that's kind of crazy.

Um, what do you guys think about Aubrey saying that Certified Lover Boy will be up against Views Backlash?

How do you feel about it as the the spearhead of the views backlash? You definitely started that. I was

definitely wrong. I thought I' come in here a few times and and said well that's what he's saying and said that I

was wrong about views. Uh I was listening to cohesion of the album and

lyrical content on the project and I said he sounded uninspired. Um and

though I had a really valid argument, there was a lot of great music on that

album. Now I understand some of you will say that. I'm just saying this because I want to squash it with Drake.

I get that. But views I I went back and revisited a few years later and felt

really dumb for killing it the way that I did. And I haven't taken aderall since that time.

So with that, I I expect to appreciate what he's about to deliver a little more

now that he got that out the way, though. No, V views aged extremely well. He was a good I think I think I

shouldn't have stepped on it that way. No, let's let's remember we were living in the moment. I should have cuz it blew our podcast up. So, I mean, fair. I

think No, I just think we were not ready for people that love Drake from like

comeback season. We weren't ready for complete crossover. Polished polished polished pop Drake.

Granted, it's not all that, but it was it was the most it was the most polished Drake album we had got. Coming from

nothing was the same where he was. That was my only bad review of that album. Or not bad review. I I wish there was more of the pop stuff on it. I like the pop

songs in there. Watch it on there, but I know I like the pop songs in there, but there's like 30 songs. We were all

wrong. Views aged amazingly. It's a frontto back phenomenal album. Um, so

yeah, when he said that, I assumed that that this certified Lover Boy one is going to be more polished.

And one of those albums that like it's so perfect you almost don't like it.

Maybe. Either way, that makes sense. I know that made sense to some people that are

listening. Like a album is a little too perfect. No, y'all just was y'all just You know what it is with Drake? He He's

He's fighting his the bar that he sets. Yeah. So, people are waiting to say,

"Aha, he slipped. He made a whack project." He He hasn't yet. And I think

that's what this was. This was the one that people just wanted to point at and say, "This album is trash. He's human."

You know what I'm saying? like he can make mistakes too. He can make bad songs too. And I just think that's what it

was. But as far as the certified level boy, I think he's probably experimenting with a new Drake maybe.

And people might not understand it at first and might not get it at first. He does that a lot. Yeah. So I think that's

that's just probably what it is. There's going to be music on there, but we like h I wasn't expecting this from him. But

is it bad music? No. I've liked most of the newer material that we've heard, whether they were official leaks or

unofficial leaks with the exception of Tootsie Slide. I don't know if I need to hear 18 Tootsie Slides, right? Um, uh,

well, I I'll say I don't particularly care if it's bad. He's at GOAT status for me for sure. He's he's he's allowed

to get a dud off. I don't think it's going to be a dud, but he's he's he's there now. It's okay. People still cling

to that. Drake has no classics, and I would argue that Drake has all classics, but that's just me. graphy is untouchable. Saying that Drake has no

class. That's been an internet argument for a decade. None. No, that's been a very popular uh Twitter debate.

Uh the Young Money page tweeted that the next time Nicki Minaj, Drake, and Lil Wayne hit the stage together, it'll be

for the first time with all of them being parents. Oh, well. Uh which tells me maybe there's something in the works

with the three of them hitting the stage again. I would hope so. Um,

well, I would hope I would hope it would be the studio first because we might not see a stage for some time. Well,

speaking of Drake having no classics, uh, because Rory is such a huge Aubrey fan. I am. Uh, he skipped over the mac

and cheese. That is not classic as well. Uh, we never discussed Drake putting

raisins in his mac and cheese. Sorry. And even as as a Drake stand, I missed that

he put raisins in his mac and cheese. Now I'm kind of I'm kind of want to take back everything I just said. Wait, is

this like a real thing or is this a rumor? No, this really happened. So I was wondering why we didn't cover this.

Drake puts raisins in his mac and cheese. A few weeks ago, Drake was having a birthday party. Uhhuh. Happy

birthday. And he was Insta snapping. Uhhuh. And a few of the invitees

Instagrammed the mac and cheese and to our unbeknownst to us, there were

raisins in it. And the internet killed Drake for the next 3 days and we've

never heard we've never I'm about to kill him for the next three days. I didn't know about this. Yeah. Honestly,

he puts raisins in there. So then we were wondering what what level of trillionaire do do you need to be at to

put raisins in your mac and cheese? Okay, hold on. We we have the menu here. Uh the the parsley secondary dish

parsley is just a garnish mac and cheese. Knock it off. Knock it off. Just a garnish. That's okay. Just you throw

it for the picture to make it look cool. I get it. Sun sundried tomato caper. Yeah. In the mac and cheese. Oh, I think

I can't read. I thought that said copper. Whatever it says. This is not how you make mac and cheese. I don't care that

you made hot tastes like copper. I don't care that you made one dance. You cannot put raisins in mac. Have you ever had

mac and cheese at work? I don't think it was in the mac and cheese. I think it was served aside. Yeah, because I'm looking at the rest of the menu like the

steak fries. Yo, [ __ ] will find a way to cape. No, look at it though. You just I mean Mo, it doesn't matter who raisins

with their cheese raisins on the side. No, listen. Look at the grilled cauliflower. It's the same

like side. So the same tomato. It's the same. It's just It's just like the garnishment for the plate. That's all it

is. He I know he didn't have either way. Don't put raisins anywhere near my

only belong in cereal. Don't even have them in the restaurant. I'm with you on that muffins. I'm with you on that. But if he had them if he was eating hot

raisins? Yeah, we was going to have a problem. I might have to. So, you cool with raisins

as a dressing on your mac and cheese blend. Is that what you're saying? No. No. As long as it's not I just think it

was like on the plate. It was like And you're fine with that? I mean, I wouldn't asking you if you're fine with

that. And I understand how they garnish plates. You come to my cookout, I give you raisins on the mac and cheese plate.

You're not going to say, "Joe, what the [ __ ] is going on?" It's kind of like a salad type of No, just listen. This is

like rich people [ __ ] It's kind of like a little salad on the side of the the plate. A raisin salad. No, people put

raisins in there. Absolutely. So, that's what I'm saying. This is kind of just a plate dressing. Talking about mac and cheese. I don't think it's not cuz it's

not inside the cauliflower. And it's the same exact [ __ ] What about raisins? Says rich. No, just the way they garnish

the plates. You know this nigga's rich. I never even heard of chicken bolognese. You've seen a lot of garnish in your life. I'm sure. Who's that? You think

raisins has ever been a garnish? Chicken bolognese. Bolognese. Me?

Yeah. No, I thought chicken. No, I thought pictures I thought y'all had pictures of raisins in some roaches.

Yeah, I was about to say no. No. How did I miss that? But no, this is probably This looks fake in general. This doesn't

look like a a rich person's birthday dinner menu. No, this is just a plate garnishment. [ __ ] had at my 21st.

You're not eating hot raisins with cheese. No, Drake, if if you're listening to this, raisins and raisins

anywhere near your mac and cheese is unacceptable. Don't make me make wake part two.

All about raisins. If had I known that Drake eats raisins

and his mac and cheese, my dishes would have hit. That That's That's what would have got you over. This is a saddening factor.

Like, [ __ ] you put raisins in your mac and cheese. You would even had to do the 17th disc. You just wrapped it up in

one. Bam. There's raisins in your mac and cheese. We're not the same. I can't believe that's fly with y'all, but [ __ ] it. What else is going on? That's

important. That is important. Let's see though. I've never heard of Poppy Seed Dressing. Uh, Spotify hints at

subscription podcast services. Is Spotify still alive?

You mean the conglomerate didn't die when we left? I I think they did. They're also starting That's why Rogan

went to YouTube live. They're starting their pola as well with the uh they'll put you on a on a a chart if you give

them a slice of the 0.0037 cents. Yeah, they'll put you up there for a cut. That's paying to get you. They want a

cut of the cut of the cut of the cut. Let's see. Let me read. They going to cut my record.

Y how many times they went, bro? God damn. Spotify appears to be interested in

launching a subscription podcast service that would offer access to original shows or exclusive podcasts for a

monthly fee, which is a great idea, by the way. Sure. Um, the potential service was described in a survey sent out

through Spotify's app, which was uh which was reported on by Andrew Wallenstein. Shout out to Andrew,

president of Variety's intelligence platform. The survey describes at least four possible subscription podcast plans

ranging from $3 to $8 per month. The cheapest plan would include access to exclusive interviews and episodes, but

would still include ads. The most expensive plan would include access to highquality original content, early

access to some episodes, and no platform inserted ads. None of these plans would

include access to Spotify's premium music subscription. I can see why their stock is plummeting.

And I don't want to be the guy to just keep talking about his ex, but boy have they just been on a streak of doing a

bunch of stupid [ __ ] ever since we left. And I love when it happens.

Wait, they also spent better about the breakup when you see her out there like, "Oh, you doing that now?" Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. I'm glad I got away from that. They also spent $235

million on one of these ad companies. Can you find that one for me? I'm in all the Spotify business. We'll get to

Wonder in a minute. Don't worry about it. We We'll get to our This is our podcast business breakdown review that

we're not going to break down and review. That and no watch, right? Megaphone. There it is. Spotify to buy

podcast ad company megaphone for $235 million.

Oh, that's why we didn't get to. So, they're buying ad companies, they're inserting ads, they're stealing the

money from the podcast creators, and they're doing some coding trick to

play music on the podcast and no one's getting paid

for a thing. Awesome. It's a good look. Awesome. Do it for the look. Awesome, man. What you

guys are giving away to be a part of certain uh infrastructures. Glad it's not me. I won't hate on any of you. Do

what you must. Uh but boy is that corny. And we need to get that cancerous company out of our culture.

All right. What What do you want me to say? OS5. What should I say?

I guess you said it, bro. Playlists aren't enough. Real [ __ ]

Yeah. The [ __ ] out of here. All right. on to some more scandaly podcast

business. Yeah. Wondery CEO, and this is from Los Angeles Times, let me give

credit. Wondery CEO who built a podcasting powerhouse vows to fight

federal corruption charges. Okay. Fight fight your fight, King. He thinks

dead people are voting, too. Probably. Give us a little backstory here. You're

a good reader. Uh when former TV executive Hernand Lopez heard the gripping true crime podcast I read that

partah serial fellow uh four years after its launch wondery had grown into one of the

nation's largest podcast publishers drawing a claim for producing compelling audio programs based on real life storiesah I don't care now the west

Hollywood uh now the west Hollywood business is at a crossroads as as it explores a possible sale during a period

of rapid consolidation in the podcasting industry. I hate that white people could do some [ __ ] [ __ ] and sell but not

really sell. They could test the water. They kicked me out the whole company when I start whing and I don't even wow

like this. Lopez also is facing a legal battle that has clouded his own future at the company he founded. He is he is

among two former Fox TV executives charged with money laundering and wire fraud over alleged bribes involving

broadcasting rights to the World Cup and other high-profile soccer tournaments. It was Poliola for the uh soccer game

for the World Cup. That one for the World Cup. Are you kidding me? Lopez has pleaded not guilty to the charges fouled

in March. He got money. He's going to be the new serial podcast.

He going to jail. Jail for the World Cup. Oh, it's the wire

fraud for me. Like, god damn it. You've been in Chitty Chat House way too much now that you're using that phrase.

It is. [ __ ] You want me to do? You going to help your man out? That's not

my bad. Roy, you just like to detour me from my thought and just say nothing.

Shut the [ __ ] up. How about that? Are you okay? It was a little shitty chatty joke. I

had a whole run of important points I was about to make. I mean, if if you're lashing out, here he comes with a joke he can't even follow up on. Is

everything be bur You seem to be lashing out. uh feels like a personal issue that has nothing to do with me that you're

just projecting to the rest of us. I don't like I don't like the narrative that you're painting about me. I don't I

won't allow you to do that. You were in the middle of reading something. It's over. It's over now. Now it's optimum ad. [ __ ] you want me to do?

Uh there's more important podcast business I think. Let's see. Uh

oh no more business. Uh, Supreme sold to VF. Supreme, the clothing company, sold

to VF, the parent company of Vans and Timberland, foref 2.1 billion. And I announced all of that

before Scream Man even uh uploaded the [ __ ] headline. Way to go, Scream Man.

You're doing great. I mean, you know, I just I want a little piece of that. Mo, you took it to the finish line. I mean, I I had to push it over. You drove it

home. I had to push it over the top for him. It gave him the final frame. Too Faced. The Too Faced did it. You a [ __ ] clown. It was a toothpick. As

soon as I did that, it's no kinky dink. You a clown. How you a Why you a clown like that? Why you mad though? I'm mad

cuz you got Supreme. You see it, right? Look how [ __ ] go to you. Why you mad? And then Joe had a reason why. Yeah, I

was about to explain it. Well, Mo got Supreme toothpaste and I can

still smell hattosis. Cut it out. See, look. Look how you always trying to look. You always Why you always trying to show? So, you don't have halattosis.

That's a stomach problem. You've never had halattosis? No. Do you know what halattosis is? No. This comes from like like a like a dead tooth in your mouth.

Like Yes. Yes. You've never had that? [ __ ] no. [ __ ] who you think? All your teeth just been alive your whole life. I

tried to keep them that way. Yes. Absolutely. And by the way, who the [ __ ] you think you talking to? Like that's something you can really control.

Holyis, dead teeth. I mean, you can brush your teeth and still go dead teeth. What are you talking? You can't

control dead teeth. And that's why you can't control if your teeth die. Even if you Even if you What are you saying

right now? Use mouthwash and brush your [ __ ] teeth in Florida. Even people that brush their teeth can still get

that. This is why it's good that Rory didn't hang out with us in 2010 when we

had like a 2-year secret society meeting about how to tell one of our friends that there was a foul odor coming from

his mouth. M yeah cuz that [ __ ] was saying all the h words in our

yo we was conspiring like yo does he know how did you let him know we did it

just stop talking to who who was it look look at Rory look look who who was it

wasn't me you know you know don't worry about it wasn't me bad and the way that

[ __ ] and the way no it's cool now but the way that [ __ ] was living life back then he looked like a [ __ ] with holtosis

[Laughter] Oh man, y'all y'all ain't [ __ ] man. You

ever go into the room after your man finish beating something down and just sniff? Oh [ __ ] Hell yeah. Absolutely.

I've had mad roommates. You don't know if it was You don't know if it's him or her smelling like that. Oh man. Yeah. Yeah, that was that was them. This is

us. Yeah, that was them. Yeah, man. I used to have altosis. Like

it's a common thing. I don't know why you act like everything is common. It's not a common

16 running to the dentist getting Hey, my insurance covers this one back here. I was on my mom's insurance. What the

hell is he talking about? I was my mom's insurance. Oh, privilege. Your mom had insurance. That's why you're Republican.

Got it. No, I'm not Republican. I'm just saying holtosis. I'm feeling like a a normal thing. Black Republican. [ __ ]

just fell in love with him. What? How go? I don't know. I hate that record.

Scream man, can you get the Supreme Face off the screen? We don't care. That's what you feel about uh that that's

selling. I don't understand it only because they sold does it again. They just did it to

they sold to the company that they were already doing collabs with. So I don't I kind of don't understand it. But I I

think it's a great idea. I thought Trump's platinum plan a piece of this. I just like it because I saw Supreme start

from literally a table at the street market like downtown. Like that's how they started. Like we have to stop

getting our rocks off because we were there from the start. I saw them grow from the ground. [ __ ] pay us. Yeah,

[ __ ] That's dope. The [ __ ] I'm going to keep asking for [ __ ] I'm going to keep ask I said us, not you. Oh, I mean,

not keep asking for reparations for and we keep buying the toothpaste to send [ __ ] to the top and then they just

leave. Oh, he shouldn't have bought the toothpaste. I didn't. That's why you had altosis.

See, full circle. You need the supreme cold case. You don't need that regular Colgate. You got to get Supreme. Yeah, you're right.

I thought it was a good idea cuz I don't think Supreme was going to last forever. [ __ ] So, sell it. Why not get you 2.1

billion? Oh, no. I'm definitely I'm taking the 2 point. Listen, I'm not mad. Listen, I'm not mad at them. I just

don't understand what's going to change because they sold to the company that they already did a lot of collabs with.

So, at that point, who cares? Shout out to Supreme though. No doubt.

Are you going to make sure they pay their taxes on that? Me? No. Shout out to uh shout out to Al Roker

who who recently announced that he's been battling stage four cancer. Oh wow. Oh man. Praise to Al Roker. Another one

of our childhood staples. Grew up watching him. Yeah. For sure. For sure. Mhm. I'll let you know what it was going

to look like on Saturday. Not stay prostate cancer. Prostate cancer. He would let us know what was happening in

our neck of the woods. Yeah. Prayers up. Let me see if there's any

more newsy stuff I have to get to. I don't think there is. Parks, do you have any more newsy stuff? Uh, I mean it's

not newsy, but uh we got announcements of Two Chain Two Chains album Friday and uh No, that could wait. That's music

stuff. Newsy stuff. Okay. No, this is music news. Pelaton and Beyonce. Let's

do that first and we'll toss it to you for the m uh music news. Beyonce bike coming. Pelaton has signed a multi-year

deal with Beyonce as as she is the most requested artist by Pelaton's 3.6

million members. After being down 20% the other day, Pelaton is up 4%

pre-market. The power of Beyonce. To my knowledge, Pelaton is uh some fitness [ __ ] right? Yeah. For online. I'm

guessing they're going to use her music, workouts. That and she's she's given uh everyone that goes to a HB.CU a free

subscription to the app as well for workout. Wow. Great. Yeah. Pelaton did not disclose financial terms of the

collaboration. I bet they didn't. They're not allowed to. It's Beyonce, [ __ ] um except to say that the

39year-old Grammy winner is also an investor in the company. The news sent Pelaton stock up as much as 8.6%

following a 20% uh plunge on Monday. Congratulations to Beyonce. Congratulations to Pelaton. I think

that's all of my newsy newsy news. Yeah, I think news collaboration. I've been too obsessed with the election [ __ ]

honestly at this point which has been all the newsy news. Yeah, it's been all the newsy news. But uh we got a two chains album coming Friday. Hey, we got

a we got a Jez Recession 2 coming right after the battle, I guess. Justice League apparently is doing a majority of
