peeved at me and arm beasts r b in the r

b world r b and that's really and that

really hurts

[ __ ]

but that hurts my heart my hands work

but that hurts but that hurts my heart

because at heart i'm r b yo

true i'm r b that is true that's why

when you go when the r b dudes like try

to gang up on me it hurts me

way more than when the rappers try to

gang up on me you rappers i don't care

[ __ ] we all can cat hat bat

if we all take our time with that we'll

put something clever in between but can

you hit a high e and that's what we'll

do but in r b yo come on yo nah yo cause

you got to think about that while you're

with your girl

now you throw lucky day on and [ __ ]

you realize the [ __ ] got an attitude

with you about some things

and that hit's a little different

did you

all right man no that's not the right

one where's the writer right there right

i always i never put in there i ain't no

[ __ ] respond no no no no no

[ __ ] here

listen to the pond yo you know sometimes

to hear things they don't like

so i all i think i said was that the

women are kicking the guy's asses yeah

i triple down in that

i quadruple down in that i don't see how

that's not even it's like that's obvious

it's not even like a matter of

discussion i didn't see where the debate

was i thought i said something like the

[ __ ] sky is blue though neil degrasse

would argue it isn't

and be right

well if you look at this guy's last

sky's not blue it's no color it's

extracting i didn't want to hear that

i love you neal that's my guy but back

to this r b [ __ ]

where was the debate there's no debate

but here's the debate

because here comes there's bad you say

there comes tank we picked up all the

male r b singers that are dope they're

just not we didn't name them

but that wasn't what we was trying to do

right there right and here comes

tank

was taking it yeah let me let the

audience know that tank is one of the

people that i can't say nothing bad

about

i cannot

and will not and would not

his voice is too much of an instrument

his pen is too much of an instrument

he's been a part of too many classics

his voice still today is classical

tank is the man yo anna's your friend

tank is my man if there were such a

thing as industry friend tank is my guy

even if he don't know how high regard i

hold him in

i've had success with tank on a record

i can't say nothing bad about tank so

when he responded to me didn't see he

didn't say nothing bad he addressed me

he just did it in the r b crusader type

of way which was to say yo joe oh i'll

play it i'll play it so i'm not at word

of mouth here oh he went on the gram and

gave you some bars

joe here we go

joseph

don't do this

don't you do my friend my brother don't

you do this

don't you shut up right here

the new generation of male r b artist is

trash don't you do that

still just just give them their flowers

he's saying that to me see tank i'm

trying to say

he might not

don't do that don't say that veto is

true don't do this

brothers is dope

no you changed them they're all people

that you get them having their moment

and that's they're just getting their

ass kicked

outcomes every last one of them they're

gonna have a moment joe joseph all right

r b money

tank

tank

do i have tanks phone number man i'm

just not you know

you called him before

no [ __ ] gonna stop playing with my

name

oh yeah i haven't spoken to tank in a

little while

if he doesn't answer i'm gonna send a

text we're gonna get this call out the

way

hello

hi this is joe budden from the joe

budden podcast calling looking looking

for tank

i'm looking for a gentleman named tank

hello

how you doing my brother

come on man i'm always good always good

good i'm glad to hear that all right you

ready to get to it man why you why why

you said that to me man

what did i say you told me

not to call the r b dudes trash which i

didn't i just said that they was getting

their ass kicked which

you screamed the word trash in in joe

budden fashion you it was it was it was

loud it was boisterous that sounds like

it was mean

well

for 2022

clarification and transparency is

important tank i do a podcast for seven

years i started radio in 2003. sometimes

for dramatic purposes

we'll emphasize something that maybe

shouldn't be emphasized

oh you're the king huh

we'll throw a little sauce on something

that shouldn't be thrown on but listen

let me tell you

r b is closer to my heart than hip hop

it is it is

it is i'm black i started in the church

i thought it was like a fact

that these guys were getting their ass

kicked out there and in the in the

spirit of competitive nature because

that's what music is

at what point do you have to look at

your your peers and say

i'm getting my ass kicked out here

because of you i'm dedicating my whole

podcast to male r b

well here's the here's the there's the

science though so you i mean you know

the you know the science the industry

science of it all right and so once your

thing catches or once a thing becomes a

thing or

or or a fad or a texture that's

it's working for the moment that's

what's fed and that's what super served

right so we got her we got sizzle we got

kelani um

we got jasmine we got you know uh we got

ari we got these ladies who are having

who are having such a dope moment but

their texture their sonic everything

about what they're doing right now it's

the thing

right so it's going to be super served

and they're going to have that run it's

that doesn't mean they aren't doing good

[ __ ] no y'all no the guys are doing good

[ __ ] just doing horribly when we start

looking at what the women are doing if

you compare the numbers no no no

wait tank tank tank

this is me i'm never having a numbers

talk i don't care what the numbers are

saying i'm talking about art i'm talking

artistically the women are providing

classics and have been for damn near a

decade we could speak from the newest

you said from

fighting classics yes

more so than men yes

yes

yes classics classics

her damage is a classic

her damage is out of this world so we

can't we can't we can't use that that's

a that's unfair oh that's out of this

world all right okay all right so i

can't do that because classic we need to

have some time and then uh yes

sailing souls is classic the mixtape us

versus them it's classic controls it's

stuck around control classic classic

snow elements debut

is impeccable

now when we start talking about men i'm

a consumer and i love r b and i spend my

money on it i don't stream that [ __ ] so

i i feel like i can hold these [ __ ]

feet to the fire to say yo dawg

what we doing

when do we get to compete

so listening to you because you're the

man wait let me land let me land let me

land listening to you tank cause you the

man you know how i feel about you [ __ ]

you the man

i listened to you and went back and said

hey maybe i'm wrong i went to listen to

today's r b

from men i went to listen to today's r b

from men this decade

and then i went and listened to every

decade of male r b starting from the 50s

you don't want me to tell you what i

come up with because you'll really get

mad at me

did you land because i feel like you

landed right now i'm done

i'm done i'm done

joe here's here's here's

here's the tough part about

male r b right and why it's had to

evolve in the way that it has evolved

you don't have a bunch of women

in the rap world

doing melody

and blurring the lines between what is r

and b

what is trap soul

what is hip-hop

yo this guy is good that's a great point

these lines for male r b are so blurred

listen let me tell you some truth i

listen to future and young thug for new

melodies and syncopation i listen to the

migos

for new wave syncopation and melodies

and dynamics

but why do all male artists seem to do

that though

we have to compete

right that space right there the melodic

space is owned by rappers

and so if we don't find a way to infuse

who we are into that dynamic we are

going to die he's right he's a thousand

percent he's right

i don't know that he's right he's right

he's right he's he's he's dumb

women still have like like the coldest

female rappers right now

you're cardi your nikki you're they rap

they rap they run yeah they're ready the

chorus is wrapped there's no melodic

nothing yeah no they're not they're not

stepping on our toes every hot hip-hop

artist right now is all melody and some

i'm sensitive

some of them are sensitive now some of

these are went there with their lady

records were they talking about doing

stuff to him that only r b guys should

be able to do

now i'ma allow him to be right no

because i could say doger cat's name and

end what he's saying

i could say

i could mention i could mention the city

girls when you talk about uh that pacing

and that tone the same way you speak

about amigos not to the same degree but

but they're they're playing like they're

not stepping on women's toes but i'm

gonna argue because you're right your

point is correct men have men

seem to have to but that's why i won't

argue your point because in my r b point

let's exclude those men

let's exclude bryson tiller

let's exclude party next door black

let's exclude black

why do we have to exclude them though

because because of your point because

they have to play in an arena that the

women do not so you're right about that

that that is the evidence

but he's saying even he says that's the

evolution of male 1 evolution of r b

that's that's the solution of male r

but then why is it not the evolution for

women

like i said they don't

they don't have to they don't have to

dance

you know i'm saying in in in spaces that

they don't belong like women are still

allowed to be sensitive women are still

allowed to be vulnerable and they're

allowed to sing their faces off name the

last hit record from a man from a male r

b uh guy that was able to sing his face

off like full out sing like go crazy

can't even think of one yeah because i

can't think of ten of the guys that can

sing their face off at a live show with

a mic in front of their faces

they can but they shy away from the

moment because it's just not popular so

then we gotta pull within ourselves

yo listen

i was at i was at r b live that [ __ ]

eric knicks used to throw in the city

when the dream came there and performed

his hits and luke james came there and

performed nothing but a voice and it

worked luke james is still there leon

bridges is still there

we have acts with voices that can sing

but if male r b is not pulling that out

because we're trying to [ __ ] uh

appeal to the kids and the streaming and

all this other [ __ ] then the playing

field will never be even tank then the

girl the girls will be playing at an

advantage that the men don't tank have

you heard cleo souls projects

cleo so no

dude do yourself a favor

do me a solid

i'm talking about somebody that may not

be so mainstream may not be so

commercial but she ain't here to play

these little kitty mainstream kiddie

games

i'm here to do the art yes watch watch

these beats

watch these beats watch my voice the

arrangement the song writing she is

incredible yeah that's what i mean

i don't i don't listen i don't disagree

with you but i'm still going to go back

to to to the element of competition

right now where

we are still in competition with rappers

who are who are who are

who are dominating our space he's right

like like and then at the end of the day

like these cats want to eat they're not

all me where they built a 20-year

foundation and they got you know cult

following and fans and all these things

they're brand new in the space trying to

figure out number one not just be be

artistic but also be famous and also be

successful

so so when these guys are signed to

major record labels and getting these

deals and all that things that are run

by lawyers and lawyers only think only

no bottom lines

some of the artists sacrifice because

they're like y'all got to fit in right

here on this hot 100 or we not gonna

make it how many 23 year olds want to be

played on r b or urban ac radio none of

them they want to be popping

he's right valid he's a hunter

well i do think that someone could come

out and kill it like a true vocalist

come out and kill him you know who could

you know who could sam smith could do it

i'll let him do it all day adele could

do it all day yeah absolutely he didn't

do it again and sharon can do well i'm

just saying that ed sheeran can do it

that's true

all day he's right posty

and it goes straight to power rotation

they don't have to start uh let's wait

till your streaming numbers get up oh

let's start it over here at at these

stations with small bandwidth oh let's

wait to the to the

let's go viral first and then they don't

do none of that

tank they go after their art like

he's right you know like we're supposed

to like like the infrastructure used to

go after hours the infrastructure don't

go after the male r b art no more the

love of male r b black male r b is under

attack whether you notice that or not

and that's not just in music that's an

entertainment overall oh he just went

home

can you wait wait because that's too

important of a point for me to skip past

the male male r b is under attack

whether you see it or not your eyes

would view it differently because you're

a [ __ ] go to this [ __ ] what do you

see

well i see that our our our

opportunities are just not the same

decreasing you know what i mean when it

comes to when it comes to male r b when

it comes to us singing our love songs

and our songs of sensuality our songs

are celebrating our women the playing

field is not the same the starting point

is not the same like you you you take

this you take this to a meaningful

record station you know what i mean that

that plays all of this other music and

the first thing they're going to say is

well what are the streams um what does

the instagram look like what is the what

is all these what's the story before i

play this record like it's not even

about the traditional process and so now

you got kids who have to try and jump

start

love love songs

you don't understand on their own

let me show love to r b radio and urban

ac radio because that's that's my house

right but we're talking about we're

talking about um

uh

an array of stations that take six

months to build a record

[Music]

and and by the time you put that album

out after that six months of trying to

sell one record who's gonna buy an album

based on one record

no and then you gotta and then you gotta

start all

over again

with the next record another four to six

months where these guys on the other

side of it guess what if that record is

popping we top 40 in three weeks oh it's

responding on tick tock it's responding

here more avenues to even play that

record the people the branding

they're not bro do you know how many

people

you know how many branding opportunities

i do not get and i've been doing this

but they would rather they would rather

brand a murderer a drug dealer or or

somebody who just would beat death rope

murder beast instead of promoting my

love

he's borrowing this up

yo

he killing this [ __ ]

like it's under a time tank they're

gonna say that you old and that's why

they'll go with a young murderer no

right that's no they're not going to say

that they're not going to say that well

he knows

he's not a young man no they're going to

go they're going to go

what's happening with what the people

are buying what the people are

used to be a young man's game too

absolutely

absolutely yeah you mean

you youth is not even it's it's not it

doesn't matter anymore that's not even

the same the point like we can think of

many rappers that are over 50 that are

that are cracking

but let me matter let me ask you no you

don't you think none of that changes

with the resurgence not the resurgence

but the dominance of verses

where catalogs might become a little

more important and a younger generation

might learn a little bit or have more

appreciation for some of the older acts

they used to announce that the streaming

went up after every verses right so i

mean it had some impact

well here here's here's where it would

here's where it would hold real value

right if after if after reverses

if after an uh versus with swv

and an escape a record company saw the

value in in in r b girls groups and we

and and five five to ten of them got

signed didn't happen you know what i'm

saying so

or or from mel r b standpoint it was

like oh we see the value in that male r

b when keith sweat and and bobby brown

did the thing let's sign up about 20 of

them didn't happen let's push this like

versus is mainstream for those people

with a catalog

those people who've done those people

who have value are foundational artists

to what it is that we do it helps them

it don't help the overall

speaking of catalog i have to ask you

this while i have you

because when the whole black ground

thing came about i was conflicted still

i still buy music

i want artists to get their money i was

there for the whole debacle at first and

then you were the only black round act

that was like actually promoting the

re-release rest in peacealia of course

are you supportive of the release or not

because i didn't buy your [ __ ] cause i

wasn't sure

i'm a thousand percent

supportive of the release okay and

that's okay and

the reason the reason i have to be

is because

i can is two ways of looking at this

right

i can be mad at the 10 plus years that i

lost revenue

or i can look forward to the 10 plus

years to where i can generate revenue

and so i choose the latter it is what it

is because in my mind i had already

moved on without that catalog i was like

i'm gonna make bigger and better songs

it is what it is

but

now that it's out

this is money i didn't i didn't count on

i didn't think this was gonna ever

happen and i definitely wasn't gonna try

to sing 40 songs that i sang in my 20s

with this 40 year old throat i was not

gonna do it thank god no way thank you

tank thank you

thank you so

i i i counted it a blessing you know

what i'm saying like this guy is so holy

it's the good with the bad no that's a

dog

no no this guy's good yeah listen it's

gonna survive this long without being

good now this guy's good all right my

last question man

and not even a question

i still get hype when i see you and

tyrese like each other's instagram posts

i do

hello

[Laughter]

i'm waiting for you to land

i also i also think

that that tgt album

is

top 5 10 r b album to release last

decade

i don't know you all really know how

amazing that project was or y'all

wouldn't be doing this frivolous

[ __ ] but i'm on my business

is anybody going to be the bigger person

at some point for the greatest sake of

music or nah

let me tell you right now come on come

on right now you know tyree's just wild

out sometimes don't do that

no no no no no no that's my man

you know what i'm good at i'm good at

accepting people for who they are

[Music]

you know

y'all don't do that

forgave him

and my brother is my brother thank you

right or wrong

brother it's my brother that's

it you know say i go to the bathroom i

go to war with him so

think about this

if you see if you see me and tyrese

y'all ain't really seeing us like

kicking it together and and but you see

like in the pictures like there's

there's more to that you understand of

me and ty like people don't realize like

that's my brother like we damn to talk

every week every

couple days so

so if you see us doing that who's

missing tank

tell us where he was going

well first of

i bet you i can find genuine right now

i can find him tomorrow this weekend

tank i know the baddest [ __ ] in new

york

what are you talking about why y'all

having a hard time

i know how to get a [ __ ]

all right great all right that's good

that's good to know but yeah no all

right that's that's all i had because

that tgt album

oh man i still i still i still do it i

still don't listen one of the one of the

most grueling processes i've ever been

through making an album but one of the

coldest albums r b albums ever in my

opinion no i'm with you i'm with you

y'all went crazy which is why y'all got

me y'all knew genuine was gonna be a

problem when he was high up there good

morning no no no no [ __ ] here's here's

what you're here's what genuine is right

let's have a little bit of drink before

we go to good morning america

stop it

i'm serious no here's what genuine is

let me tell you what genuine is genuine

is the least problematic person i've

ever met in this industry whatever and

genuine is at a point in his life where

stress

doesn't register for him and if it looks

like stress he's so well off his money

good his land is good his kids are good

he don't need the stress he know bernice

so huh

does he know a young lady by the name of

bernice burgos

all right now she just walked into a

wall

now

all right all right i just wanted to

know that the potential was there for a

project if need be if i got to call

kaiser myself i'm going to get this done

god dammit

i think it's needed i think it's

necessary me too me too i think 2022

there should be a summertime teacher

that's just me tyler he's waiting for

the rock to do the next little [ __ ] the

rock game

tyrese is going to surprise you

tyrese is going to surprise you

yo you know what i'm calling him in an

hour

tank i appreciate you i love you of

course uh and i wish you nothing but the

best thing

thank you my brother

okay that was fantastic fan he's

a [ __ ] hold up man yeah get a [ __ ]

some some air horns some drums

shots give him a pot

he did that well observation number one

it's painfully obvious the tank needs a

podcast word

they need a tgt pod or something he

could talk i wish all you guys that

weren't good at podcasting would stop

making them so we could find the jewels

like tank and then staples and get them

to really do one without feeling like

it's oversaturated in the market

bars he smoked that [ __ ] yo he went

crazy but he's passionate about r b

but you know

but wait let's highlight that i want to

skip over that because that be the

passion that you can hear and people is

missing nowadays like if you listen to

me

yeah i'm a lunatic but you can hear

passion from music right and that feels

good right

when you speak to tank you can hear that

when you speak the prem

you can hear like right

that just feels good yo now go ahead no

i was just gonna say i'm sure all

musicians have some level of passion i

disagree dog this [ __ ] well he said

musicians ice

okay he said music musicians

he broke the [ __ ] down though in

layman's terms where you can understand

what he's saying

right you can ingest it and you can

really see his point

i never would have never thought tank on

instagram man because that's weird just

telling me killed that [ __ ] man

tell him he went crazy really i never

looked because that was a very obvious

point that was right on front street

yeah you're cool who thinks about that

yeah you could look

unless you're super passionate about r b

and you and the competitive you got to

compete now you got to compete with

future and young thug amigos right

you don't have time to look at what snow

and her is doing think about that though

you talking about the biggest

rap okay

i'll take that out there i'll take an l

that's who i gotta compete with i'll

take it if i'm if i'm a r b singer

coming in the game right now my thing

though is i think that's what i think

i think it just takes one one person to

make it cool again similar to how

griselda made boom bap cool again in rat

i think it just takes one person to go

on the ledge and be like nah i'm

interested wait wait and parks his point

is why i feel like i don't take a l with

tank

tank brings up hold up let me just land

real quick tank brings up

an amazing point that has all the

validity in the world about having to

compete with tank i mean our future and

young thug and just the newer acts right

but on the flip side when i talk about

the ladies kicking ass it's not just

artistically because if you're an artist

let me get off a musician land and get

on the artist land now if you're an

artist you got to figure out how your

image connects with your audience right

true however that is you got to figure

out your style of dress

your style of being seen your style

interview

your style of hey do you have a cool

little hashtag for your for your hive

out there like there's a new way of

doing things that i think me

i think the ladies when you look at it

in a hole in totality they have figured

it out or

we are in that moment where

i think it's

the labels that are behind the ladies

the marketing departments and all that

are no more into them i'm sorry all

right i'm not gonna step on you i

counter that with i hate to be the

bearer of bad news the labels never

wanted the women to win

i don't want to tell you all that cause

y'all gonna think it's coming from me

and it's not the labels never wanted the

women to win talk to any of the women

which is fine meg had to go burn down

houston before they paid her attention

cardi will tell you the label didn't

believe in her the girls are expensive

yeah the girls are a headache

the girls are late

the labels didn't want to put the women

in the forefront that's why we've had x

amount of years in music without the

women being at the forefront they took

that [ __ ] by the bull horn yeah but you

know what happened um

that's the fact though

yeah but the label don't want you to win

until you're all of the women that are

prepared for you to win

right now it's profitable for him

but you're telling me that the sky is

blue all you got to do is show a label

that something's profitable and they're

going to get people to go there yes hey

nelly had people go to st louis to find

the next hymn yeah all you got to do is

get hot where you at the labels is

follow the leader so correct what you're

saying is a fact what i'm saying is the

women all of the women that are popping

did it themselves but it's a difference

even if even at the different levels of

popping

from the doges to the flow millies

tank was talking about her i would have

loved us to talk about gabby wilson

because that the music was good then she

had to go figure out a rebrand

she had to go figure out yo my image

something's not connecting tanaji had to

do it seven had to do it i just watched

seven struggle for years and she caught

one she had to figure it out

so why why am i not holding the men to

the same thing

no you [ __ ] can't just keep putting

out the same regurgitated computerized

[ __ ] and telling me that you battling

with future [ __ ] future's future right

future is

x amount of the marketplace whenever he

drops

he's in that we're going straight to pop

when it drops

i'm too sexy didn't have to didn't have

to build

there's a reason that the a [ __ ] are

working with the a [ __ ] that's what

he's saying

i know but as a dude what he's saying is

all in response to me saying yo the

girls are kicking ass now he's actually

he's 100 correct in what he's saying but

that don't change what i'm saying it

does change because what you're saying

is for the dude the single dude he's

faced with more the singer dude not face

woman we're talking about the musician

the singer dude who loves to sing he

loves to write loves to do all of that

he's passionate about all of this [ __ ]

fam for dude the pop and this is what he

brought up with ed sharon and sam smith

it's more about it's more it's ten times

more than that on the black side well he

named let me finish let me finish you

talked about outfits you talked about

all that [ __ ] when you're a white boy

that they could come up there with a

wrinkled t-shirt and get busy

artistically ish and they're going to be

accepted you right

and if we include race

we'll always be right and for 2022 i

want to be a little less racy no no i

spent the whole last year being racy

let's just let me talk for a second

yes those people get the

post ed sharon adele sam smith there's

some names i've left off

because they should be left off like

chris brown shouldn't be mentioned

chris morales should never be mentioned

chris brown popped up in o3 dawg

heavyweights around

had to sell records labels was really

something had to transition between

majors figuring out what it does what it

was came out on top be the case

[ __ ] had the most turbulent career in

front of your eyes too talented you

can't stop it

you can't stop a talent like that oh

y'all hate me i'm gonna go graffiti now

it's 20 years ago for a year i'm gonna

go dan no but he's here still no no what

i'm talking about is but even his even

his music he's here still changes his

music but he's playing music from then

tonight i don't even know he ain't for

play play i don't talk about it no he's

not so i want to make that i want to

make that known when we talk about male

r b i just want to make it known that

the male r b dude is the name for play

play your name's not even to be

mentioned in this because the crux of my

argument is the newer

women acts

artistically are putting it together in

a way that the newer male acts are not

tank's point is valid

my point is valid biggest point and i

love all the music so i don't want it to

make it seem like i'm [ __ ] on anyone

i want r b to thrive i want to hold

y'all to the fire

i want to search for music on a friday

and it's right there yeah we missing

some of his points his major point was

women are allowed to be vulnerable women

are allowed to be sexy women are allowed

to be women the dudes today they don't

make r b how or write songs how they did

i didn't want to argue with him part of

why future

is future

is because of his ability to be

vulnerable in r b

i agree so if the male r b acts want to

come on talking about popping pills and

pardon me but whatever aggressive [ __ ]

they talk about i don't know hey mark

that

then

so be it but you as an artist when you

sit down with a pen and a paper or in

front of a mic or in the studio you have

the ability to write about anything you

want i know but now you gotta go sell it

i was just getting ready to sit now you

gotta go sell it wait wait wait wait

wait joe and now you gotta get somebody

to stand behind what you're writing

and in this climate [ __ ] don't wanna

hear that soft [ __ ] no

and it might be a minority group that

does wanna hear it right marketable

when you're talking about money you got

to feed your family you got to feed your

kids and he said that

now you got to sell it [ __ ] don't want

to hear it when you take it to the label

they want to know if you got a little

baby on it or they were like he said all

right that's cool the record is alright

what's your following look like yeah are

you viral are you this yeah we're here

yo this is the greatest podcast in the

world let me tell you a large part of

what separates artists that don't have

nothing to do with music

willingness and ability to sacrifice

that's not talked about enough that it's

not

so as i watch all of these music docs

from back to the 50s

before they talk about the hits that

took off

they talk about the struggle

and the ability to sacrifice and making

a tough decision [ __ ] this ain't even a

race thing they did it that in the kenny

g dark too

that's true if you are an artist you

have to learn

when it's time to buckle your belt and

not eat and sleep on your man's floor

for a little bit versus oh we on now

we on now i agree i remember going back

to the hood when the label was saying

all right fine find a record that that

works at radio i was 20

from jersey city

what the [ __ ] do i know about what will

work on a radio i just learned how to

make a record

like what are y'all talking about right

now

so it's just some people that

i don't even remember why i brought that

up because my brain is all over it

because i said that now the young kids

when you face with two things and most

people it's easier said than done right

most people what is like water you're

gonna take the path for least resistance

so yeah you could thug it out and you

could starve not knowing if you ever

gonna pop but when this label tells you

go do x y and z because it's gonna sell

for them [ __ ] you 20 years old

you're gonna go do x y and z when you as

a 20 year old rapper if they would have

laid out a floor plan for you to go do x

y and z you would have did that and then

let me reply to that they laid out a

floor plan it was just wrong because if

you listen to the label people it's

going to always be wrong the answer

comes from the artist always and we

inject it into the game and the game

copies it mimics it puts generations

so no the template was yo go to the club

surround yourself with [ __ ] stand on

the couch get you an upbeat up tempo

record that will play at 1am 2am in the

club that was the template

that was wrong i'm not disagreeing but

they control the money hey wait wait

wait hold up stupid ass me i'm not a

street [ __ ] i'm not a drug dealer i'm

not a gang member in 2001. i'm on the

internet hey if y'all telling me to go

look at what's hot i don't know what's

hot

i'm not outside i'm an inside baby y'all

didn't ask me that when you sign me i

like to be indoors

an introvert

so now i to go look online

oh [ __ ] is mad [ __ ] out there online

let me come tell y'all

they dismissed that for 10 years we

don't need to harp on it but they was

late the industry's gonna always be late

if you look at these docks they're gonna

always be late they're gonna wait for

one of us to figure it out

and then they're just going to insert it

but the problem is with the younger

younger artists you can't figure it out

you can't be held with them

as a younger artist today i don't need

to figure it out because instagram is

going to pay me for uploading [ __ ]

twitter is going to pay me for uploading

[ __ ] and youtube is going to pay me for

uploading these are things that did not

exist when i came in

so it makes it a little easier to strap

in your belt if i got five that on a low

scale

five grand a month coming in

you good with man

that's the lowest that's the lowest

scale if you building what if you got a

couple i'm talking entry level [ __ ]

let's let's lower it a little bit three

grand a month to sit home you know

blessed i feel that we come in here and

do this podcast twice a week

two times yo what it says to me is with

proper planning execution and by design

you can set your life up in a way

where you make the most out of your time

i think that a lot of these newer acts

are seeing that and doing it which is

why we have young dolph saying yo they

offered me 50 mil i'm cool

that's why we got some of these other

that's why you got me the russians

they offered me 30 mil but no listen to

the sentence from me from [ __ ]

spanish harlem in a project listen

listen to any russ interview he gives

you a blueprint every time you give a

mic in front of him

you know i'm saying he was just on the

breakfast club with charlemagne talking

about the blueprint every time he opens

his mouth he talks about it

and he talks about how the industry

won't put a light on him because why

would you want to promote such knowledge

you wouldn't right you wouldn't want to

promote that we wanted to rob you we

want you to keep thinking it's this way

yeah you can't know that there's another

way out

the industry is designed to keep you in

debt in

blind yeah and making them feel like

they have the power

yeah and to the younger ones coming in

you're looking at it is okay

that's what's selling and that's what's

popular i have to do that now and the

other thing that we missing is a lot of

young artists coming in i'm not saying

all of you please don't take this the

wrong way a lot of young artists coming

in ain't coming in with the heart for it

true this is one of the ways to get the

money no it's a way to get out the hood

but i'm just saying this we talk a lot

we're speaking a lot about passion and

and i'm putting my all and my feelings

in this no no no no we're dancing from

musician music guitarist to artists yeah

we do we are doing the dancing arguments

so we should make it clear to them it's

two different rules well that's why it's

true specified i'm not talking i mean

but again i just think that

what he said yo it was just

poignant because

it's so many other factors for the dudes

you know i mean like your talent ain't

even the lead factor no more well that's

yes and no that's not yes or no fam they

can fabricate songs yeah but talent

still rises to the top

i disagree and we mean you had this

argument 20 years ago not 20 15 years

ago it's televised on youtube me and

joe's arguing 20 years ago about talent

beating out

the the the machine

i was wrong in the heart the machine

wins bro

sometimes the machine won with rihanna

versus kisha cole it did

okay but the machine i submit to it's

just argument there the machine wins but

remember we was having this talking 0.8

it's still relevant today because you

could take a kelly price you could take

a singer a real singer that could sing

their ass off and will smoke most of

these girls under a dresser somewhere

but they can't market them and that's

where the money comes in

short term

i disagree but also time short term okay

might check one two one two might check

one two one two let me open up right

quick

a little late for an intro on the pod

but we're doing this for male r b right

now this ain't the version you got in

your serato neither don't do that

it's the carnegie mix the instruments

it's different it's different you hurt

see y'all missed that little [ __ ] like

that you hear that you hit that horn

note when the first star-ish look look

at the horn look

come on man

come on i do this music thing i do this

you do

oh youtube i hope y'all can get this i

hope y'all could

you can't though i got to

i gotta monetize

it now

the things we're doing for monetization

out there man it's crazy

all right

we'll get this going 40 minutes later 40

minutes later but it's cool it's a vibe

come on man that's my favorite solo come

on man nah come on man i should put you

in a good mood

today yo

what's y'all going today why y'all show

up like this today what you mean y'all

like seeing you all inspired by the time

stamp killer

all it takes is one dude to come and do

his job thoroughly

look at everybody else stepping it up

how y'all brothers feeling great how you

doing how's your mental health how's

your family how's your children how's

your wife wife

sorry

sorry y'all just fronting still

everybody's good man all right good how

was your weekend

mine yeah oh cool cool

mine's cool

oh a little stayed home watch some tv

okay stayed in bed chilled out a little

bit

that's it that's it that's all i got man

somebody take it away

i don't know if i believe half that [ __ ]

you know they had like paintings from

walls like on stone from 2000 bc that

they stole from somewhere no doubt it

was [ __ ] they made that [ __ ] up like

[ __ ] man a little slightly called

[ __ ] on some of that yeah yeah and

my second thought was the arrogance they

had a temple from egypt in what was

formerly the sackler uh wing but they

got rid of the sacko name so i think

probably just right just recently like

yeah i'm pretty sure

from egypt so they stole the temple

i don't know how they acquired it

probably stolen they you think they went

over there but even if they did it even

if they paid people or whatever the [ __ ]

the arrogance to be like you know what

we're gonna take this to manhattan

we're going to put it right here

y'all need it

you don't need that temple no that's

real no we're going to move it

a temple with stones

like four foot by four foot stones

what are you talking about you hear his

voice

that is wow

that's a while

that it's something you gotta be a real

[ __ ] to do that you know

do you mind you have to be a real

[ __ ] to participate in museums in

america no to take somebody else's [ __ ]

charge somebody else to get into this

still they should charge you to come

look at this [ __ ] that i stole from them

which

is

museums in america

yeah i'm just pretty sure museums

worldwide yeah i don't even think it's

just america no but if it's your [ __ ]

you go yeah i can't speak for worldwide

because it might be that [ __ ] none of

this [ __ ] over here it's ours it's ours

we're going to museums to see [ __ ] that

they took from somebody and brought it

over here and put it in a nice class

case i'm trying to be less racy so i'll

leave that to y'all

ah we know you're not doing that because

it's too many there's too many there's

too many wipes there's too many white

people that i [ __ ] with out there i love

them someone else would be like yo

it's getting heavy to listen to it seems

like there are being pretty equal

opportunities about stealing [ __ ] there

was roman [ __ ] greek [ __ ] [ __ ] yeah

they said they were stealing

[ __ ] that's your cousin [ __ ]

now you borrowed that from your cousins

let's trade i'm gonna get you some

american [ __ ] you give me some italian

[ __ ] that being said it was like it was

pretty inspiring because it was like

humans are [ __ ] nuts like people were

2 000 years ago making these detailed

[ __ ] gold chains and [ __ ] like

[ __ ] armor with nipples and abs on

them and [ __ ] like how the [ __ ] was

y'all doing that [ __ ] no like if you go

to uh i don't know if y'all ever been

but you're going like the sistine chapel

and all that though you hear what he

just eats

and i didn't like it at all don't do

that again yeah please don't don't talk

down on me like do that again

i know if [ __ ] over there say the

point all right don't attack us

yeah egypt like how's i've seen letters

that my grandpa wrote in like the world

world war two or whatever that are faded

like they got some [ __ ] from three

thousand four thousand they're gonna

restore that [ __ ] they've been having

that change

[ __ ]

i was thinking my whole time like no way

that's not real nah it can't be tanks

with no oxygen all like that oh come on

conspiracy there is joe no no no no no

no

y'all are cooking and i don't want to

step on my co-host y'all are going crazy

but while y'all were talking about that

somehow it led my brain to the youtube

rabbit hole that i went down today

of these two mexican dudes who just

build duplex apartments with under

lavish underground living conditions

with pools

from scratch in the wild right okay

it's two of them

they seem to have monopolized the word

primitive

their youtube page i think is like

primitive building or primitive tools or

primitive anything with primitive okay

there's this two mexican dudes and they

keep building astronomical [ __ ]

out of just wood

and it looks amazing

and i thought this was pretty amazing

when they had 50 million views on

one or two vids

as i continued to search i learned that

it was probably them that owned all of

these primitive pages and they keep

uploading the same video on like 10

different pages so they look really poor

but i think they're billionaires

i think they're billionaires look at

these two dudes they're billionaires yo

and they are tricking us with dirty

clothes

that's what they just take your shirt

off while you do this that's what they

do oh no you pulling up some [ __ ]

with 8 000 views these [ __ ] average 50

million views and it's on 10 different

pages no you ain't seen that [ __ ] thumb

that [ __ ] don't look worse than yours

nigga's not rich

he's right

man i don't want to be the guy to tell

you this no i've seen him build a

swimming pool he's also rich clay he's

rich

he may be not look rich he may not sound

rich if you heard him talk this kid is

rich he's a billionaire somebody

monetized this [ __ ] is rich

if he don't own these pages then he has

a lawsuit coming to somebody

no they might be i thought about

stealing this nigga's content

i'd just be impressed man like in the

last two years we've been stuck inside

the house [ __ ] looking at the

internet and like seeing [ __ ] that

people did like this or like in the

museums

gave me like a little new faith and

humanity to somebody yeah sometimes yeah

like man we're pretty cool sometimes

when we're not on our [ __ ]

by

yeah you're not blowing that [ __ ] down

look at him climbed out the tunnel all

right enough of these dudes they got

enough money um what would your

gentleman like to begin with 40 minutes

in 45 minutes in

anything you want whatever is on and

whatever is on the down we can start

anywhere you gentlemen what's important

yo did y'all watch uh

i don't know if y'all watched um you

better start with something that's not

the video music boxer okay that's not

the most important thing in the world

it's not the most important thing in the

world so you go to we're not gonna start

there we'll start with someone a little

more relevant

oh okay i didn't see this didn't have

this one here not going to cover that

yeah no not going to cover that i think

that's i think that's the media going

wild yeah

yeah you ain't gonna trick me with the

media tricks i will wait for the

proceedings thank you very much

don't fool me with what the blogs are

saying

all right let's see

what is important still festival season

you want to oh i met somebody i meant to

tell [ __ ] tank that all the [ __ ]

doing that can we talk challenge or

trash and they're off beat and off key

and they sound like [ __ ] maybe i'll call

him back to tell him that yeah i'm gonna

call him back um all right travis scott

offered to perform for free at coachella

coachella said no

don't know why that's big news

it's probably big news because of the

names involved but no no festival is

touching travis scott right now he's his

name

and the appearance of his name is a

liability it detracts fans right now

it's not an attraction it doesn't

incentivize anyone so

this was painfully obvious when it was

reported i just felt i needed to tell

y'all because they made the thing tell

the why yeah they made it a thing

yeah no they can't have him they can't

host him right now and no one

coachella's not hard-pressed to find a

replacement no no

this ain't summer jam letting the baby

perform no disrespect because i did like

that move

just a little different but this ain't

that now boy was it telling that travis

scott would want to perform for free

that part was telling

now we know in his predicament you

probably should want to perform for free

but what it says is that

oh we kind of need the coachella machine

to make things look a little more

to make things appear

if they see that coachella is still

backing

this

then maybe we won't lose all of these

other opportunities uh he lost his

little energy drink i didn't know he had

one but

i can imagine that when people die

you're gonna start losing some deals

travis scott i pray for you hold your

head still

i know this is still rough for you

and you still have to balance this kind

of juggling act so

that's not lost upon me uh and just to

clarify

they said um

it's not canceled it's on hold ah they

gave you know they

this is basically just saying you're too

hot right now

you're gonna sit down for a little bit

revisit this and we'll revisit this

yeah when everybody if you're still a

money machine exactly

100 we can't not work with you we just

can't not work with you right now right

you got to think about him though and

what

he feeling just sitting at home

you know what i'm saying like

you're just sitting at home you'd be

right he probably don't want to go off

yeah i was going to say i said no you do

but you don't like people died i really

got to think about him right he'll be

sorry yeah he's alive and this is coming

from a huge travis fan i still listen to

the music but

how he feels right now because people

are backing away from him is like at the

bottom of the list i ain't saying about

people

how he feels about how he's being a part

of such a catastrophe yeah like i ain't

talking about he didn't ask for that

yeah he didn't plan for that

i'm sure if he could have his way it

would go another way of course see and

that that's where i differ i'm not

saying he asked for people to get killed

he's been asking for injuries he's been

you have a lyric saying if they ain't no

mosh pit if they ain't no injury he has

been asked i'm sorry he has been asking

for organized chaos he has not been

asking for death

i said he's not asking for death this

time but but people died so we want to

be clear correct he

yes

he was promoting being wild and being

free and having fun

i am not going to say that travis scott

was promoting death no no no no no i'm

not going to do it no no no i don't i'm

not going to put that on that i'm not

saying he was promoting serious injury

either a lot of times people say what

they say but that don't necessarily mean

that

that's what

the result is the result we don't really

care about your intention because this

is what happened it's bums in the port

authority that didn't intend on being

homeless yet here we are

your intentions don't matter when when

you at your show

i believe it was it was in new york i

forget which venue it was maybe earlier

where you talked to the guy

yeah like you are asking for serious

injuries when you gassed the dude up to

jump from the top and he broke both his

legs you're doing that maybe he don't

jump if you don't do that

i heard a different side of that story

but

i don't wanna yo whatever is happening i

imagine him to be having a difficult

time exactly

and i

am praying for anybody parents included

of people that lost their children

that's having a difficult time and

that's just not related to astro world

holiday season

[Music]

i hate to be that guy again

but

the world keeps showing me

that's what it is in december yo it

ain't just dumb no it's not it ain't

just them yo [ __ ] just [ __ ] up out

here [ __ ] is dying [ __ ] is [ __ ] up

yo rest in peace vic yo

rest in peace vic rest in peace to vic i

hate to bring new york business to a

worldwide platform this way

but uh vic was a beloved uptown [ __ ]

man who who died over the weekend had a

heart attack in the club that's the

story that's reported from the news

outlets if i'm incorrect in that then my

apologies

but i want to be sensitive to this and

handle this with care because this is

somebody from uptown that [ __ ] love

[ __ ] [ __ ] with was cool as a fan yeah

he was 31 years old

31 years old and had a heart attack

while he was outside partying having a

time of his life

i'm still one of those guys that when

people die especially at a young age and

i see their instagram or you guys show

love and post their instagram i go to

their instagram

and i pay attention to the plans that

they had made

vic was promoting new year's eve plans

real big party that he was a part of

hosting

that he won't be a part of hosting

right super super super sad

and that's part of the ps uh ptsd that

comes with podcasting especially this

month i've been saying it all month

i come in here

i don't think we've done a podcast this

month without having a beast not at all

we have not i don't even think in

november

it's been a minute it's been a little

while

it's been a minute these times are

trying for people

they're difficult for people

and to randomly have a heart attack

wherever you are with your loved ones

watching i can't imagine it i can't

imagine it and of course everybody that

passes has young children

hurts my heart even more rest in peace

to vic i dedicate this episode to vic

and our prayers thoughts and condolences

go to anybody anybody who knew vic loved

vic anybody uptown anybody that partied

with him had a vibe we won't celebrate

his life today

because i know a lot of people that were

extremely too close to vic

so rest in peace to vic

but it's not just that yo it's not j yo

okay i have kids so i have a soft spot

in my heart for kids right and it's my

baby's birthday today round of applause

there you go oh my god turning four

years old

i love you baby

damn hopefully you get something it

flies it flies by happy birthday lex i

love you but just when [ __ ] pass when

they have children yo it just hits a

special spot in my heart

i got my mind does all types of thinking

and racing and just thoughts and prayers

love condolences when you when you when

you got a transition

during the holidays it's yeah

it's nasty it's nasty out there this is

really my biggest fear right now a lot

of happy hearts uptown man i feel for

y'all i feel for y'all as it should be

that is my biggest feel like i look at

my uncle

rest in peace he passed away when his

daughter was six months old

and

still like i'm every time i look at my

daughter i'm just like yo i gotta be

here yo but you ain't in control of that

you have no control that's the scariest

[ __ ] to me bro and will you won't be

here like when these types of deaths

happen

like

a small part of me starts hating on the

people that'll be alive and present

70 80 years from now i believe they'll

have a device to say hey you take

another drink and you are

this close to a heart attack or this

close to a seizure

like when we start having those

conversations about chips and how they

might be advantageous health is the

first thing i go to yeah so it's like

some of those things that we fall victim

to now

just not knowing when our body will

collapse on us

having no control over where we'll be i

don't think they'll suffer from that 50

sixty seventy eighty years from now [ __ ]

might be sooner or not yeah if you

listen to elon musk it might be sooner

that rest in peace vic shout out to his

family friends really really really

really beloved and uh

uh on dickman and uptown man sad day sad

day

uh

if we listen to elon musk then yes who

is round of applause times magazine time

magazine's person of the year

man of the year elon musk i don't have

much to report on that outside of all my

stock people telling me that tesla's the

move

yeah i can see it that's what i have

elon said the chips are closer than we

think he said trains in la are closer

than we think everything's closer than

we think

i can't imagine what that guy's brain

goes through on a day to day so yeah

i'll just invest

i'll just i think i'm smart [ __ ] make

me look like a [ __ ]

mentor

yeah like [ __ ] your little dumbass out

here

yeah cause they just think about some i

mean when it comes to being smart they

just think about some of the things that

are like really far out thoughts to us

like

elon musk is talking about hey in

uh

irl

we don't have enough humans

right

listen to that

wait we don't have that that's what his

brain is plagued with his brain

is saying that

modern civilization

as the world ought to know it does not

have enough humans to function the way

that it's supposed to function that's

what his brain says it's so weird

because everybody else is saying we got

too many if we're idiots i mean i like

to listen to people like him who just

think

outside

anybody that's just has an outlandish

thought that sounds stupid today that

might make sense in 50 60 years i want

to hear from i do and i want to see what

la looks like with trains

i see what new york looks like with

trains and

you need more money to fix it

but every day there's somebody

attempting to stab somebody on the new

york subway oh yeah every day is to be

funny no that's what your brain went no

whatever that's not where my brain goes

that's what they doing i turn on the

news every day every day is yo [ __ ]

smacks the [ __ ] out of a girl on the

train yo [ __ ] stab somebody on the

train yo [ __ ] mental health problem

goals on the train

actually i come in here today because

all weekend my brain stayed on back to

having kids and having a soft spot for

children

there's a video going around of a mental

health patient

and i want to talk i'll do you have to

talk about it

and i'll grant him the courtesy

and death

to call him a mental health patient

actually before i get there

i want to highlight a doc that i watched

at least 90 times

because that's how sick it was and i

don't remember the guy's name it was

sean vannis or sean cantus or sean

something

but this this little white dude was sick

enough

to kill his girlfriend

and two daughters

both under the age of five

and help the police look for them now i

watch a lot of docs yo i do

i have never seen one

where the 40 year old dad

kills

girl dad as they like to say um

kills two girls

and his girlfriend and helps the police

look for them for 30 40 however many

days it was

if y'all saw that story then y'all know

just how sick it was that's up there

with for me the the girl that was on

trial for trying to aid her boyfriend

that could kill himself via text that

was a unique case as well

but i ain't never seen no [ __ ] like a

parent doing that he threw his two

daughters in the oil oh yeah yeah i

remember this

i seen this too alive

they were alive

earlier in the doc the oldest one is

talking about how she's a daddy's girl

and she loves him death she was the one

he threw in last

and she said daddy what are you doing

after her little sister was gone in oil

not water

oil

right so i think about this because i

have kids and everybody that dies

has kids

and this nigga's a sicko

and then we have this video floating

around if you haven't seen it i'll

explain it to you for the last few days

it was so disturbing i tried not to

watch it but then it gained traction and

momentum

so it's a gentleman who is clearly going

through mental health issues

and he's using this video to discuss

mental health issues

when it comes to parents or dads

specifically unable to see their

children

and going through the court process and

the baby mom process of seeing your

children when it gets rough

this guy was a sicko

this guy

killed his current girlfriend who was

pregnant

because she threatened for him not to

see his kid that weren't wasn't born yet

he killed her

went to his ex-girlfriend's house

knocked on the door

turned his video on and start recording

himself saying yo yo

i did some wild [ __ ] i blacked out i

just killed my ex-girlfriend

yo ladies out there if you can let the

dad see their kid blah blah blah he went

into why he was losing his mind

his ex answered the door he said oh

here's my ex right there today is the

day and he ran in there and he killed

his ex

after killing his present girl pregnant

girlfriend and then killed himself

now

i want to say

to y'all out there who might suffer like

me trigger running

trigger warning trigger warning

because this stuff is disturbing

but i am going to play this i'm going to

play this clip

this puts me at a crossroads because i

don't feel like people who are this

menacing

should have their points shared

but i also don't think that y'all should

hear that type of

that type of malice

that type of evil

from me because i don't feel like i

possess that in me

so let me see if i find this here

right bong

bong

bong

and uh we have

bomb

um i gotta make it quick

for everybody out there that supported

me and really knows what's going on

thank you all

um let's not take that into a custody

battle i've been

going through um having my

ex-wife say i molested my children and

all kinds of craziness been fighting for

custody for three years

so uh yeah i'ma pause this and talk

through this show [ __ ] it's been real

crazy yes

hold up how do i pause all kinds of

craziness pause

stupid ass big fingers

many of us men have gone through custody

battles

to the men out there who don't know how

custody battles they'll go they get

really ugly

they get really ugly sometimes things

are said that are untrue

and they paint your character to be in a

way which it isn't isn't that's how

custody battles go

and i'm gonna talk through this fighting

for custody because he seems to be

justifying this type of evil and it's

disgusting

[ __ ] has been real crazy what's up

oliver you know about this guy's giving

a shout out um in the middle of my

ex-wife also

meet you know and start dating somebody

new okay

and she got pregnant

and um

you know we got in the fight first thing

she does it's threatening that she's

gonna do the same thing you're never

gonna see your kids blah blah blah

it's the holidays man i don't have no

family nothing

anyway i just did i'm gonna pause this

because though this individual is sick

he speaks to something that i'm sure is

prevalent in many of us out there

it's tough around the holidays yo

it's tough around the holidays

and we cannot account

for how tough everyone is in what

they're enduring and going through yo
