    back to the hat. Miss M the hater. I'm not a hater. John was hat. Joe is a great rapper.

  • 1:20

    I got to tell you something. I've always appreciated Joe's talent. Okay. I just don't think he has the greatest freestyle ever.

  • 1:27

    I don't think there's anything wrong with that. There's nothing wrong with that. But it was the dismissive nature. Yeah. Without even knowing the

  • 1:33

    freestyle. Somebody Well, somebody else was saying, "Hey, I think this Joe Button freestyle is the greatest freestyle."

  • 1:39

    That's exactly entitled to say that somebody a lot of people don't know that they some [ __ ] up. I'm not talking about

  • 1:45

    Mark, but people don't be knowing when they saying some [ __ ] they ain't supposed to say. Yeah, that's true. But some opinions

  • 1:53

    like I would be like that disqualifies you from the conversation. But at least if you're familiar with

  • 1:58

    what they talking about because again it could possibly be that. What is the

  • 2:04

    greatest freestyle? Black thought on uh flex. Now to some people black thought

  • 2:10

    I die on that hill. And I'm not mad at that. By the way, was that 2019? That was recent like 2020

  • 2:15

    somewhere. What was the greatest freestyle ever before that? Um

  • 2:20

    that's new. Rockefeller invades Hot 97. That's a good drawing. You might have it there. He's only 16. That drawing

  • 2:28

    you saying. Even with all that still being on the album, so we all knew it was written. You still consider it that. There's a couple cuz remember when they

  • 2:34

    came through the when they came through high that day, they crushed everything. It was a few of them. But I can tell you this, whatever it is

  • 12:58

    See, that's the problem, man. This is making this

  • 13:07

    No, it's getting away as a people, man. Y'all y'all were looking for some shade and it's nothing. It's just like

  • 13:13

    I'm down with you. Yeah, it's just like both of them. Yeah, shout out both of them. Look, too many words.

  • 13:25

    I don't mind. I don't mind. So, yesterday uh two days ago, the Ian and Mark show came out. Mhm.

  • 13:30

    And did y'all y'all see it? Yeah, I know. You got a nice little gym in the basement. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's a nice house.

  • 13:36

    It's not That's not the real house. Oh [ __ ] Well, the prop house was a big prop

  • 13:42

    house. The prop house is great. Dope. I wish that was my house. It's not though. It was my basement. Post been in my house. It's not my It's not my house.

  • 13:48

    But anyway, that's not the point. Point is, we put out this episode, which I think is one of our better episodes. I think it was pretty funny. If y'all

  • 13:54

    didn't watch it, watch it. And then people keep hitting me up thinking that the episode is some deep

  • 14:01

    uh attack on the co-workers up here. That's what I thought. Just cuz you're a piece of [ __ ] At what

  • 14:08

    point? You're an executive producer, by the way. Oh, [ __ ] You got me. So, and

  • 14:13

    it's like, just to be clear, at no point whenever we make these shows are we sitting around thinking about anybody

  • 14:19

    else. Specifically, if you don't watch the episode, the episode plays on the idea that I'm scamming Joe and Ian. Got

  • 14:24

    it. I I saw that part. And that I'm faking workplace injuries in order to be off of work.

  • 14:33

    Dad, we got him.

  • 14:39

    nothing knees sl I should have saw that. Oh, you're in the hospital.

  • 14:46

    I should have I knew it. You know why you you know

  • 14:52

    I should have been right at the door you audience that is unaware. I don't think this is going the way you wanted at all. This is not going at all.

  • 14:59

    I should have said this before Flip got here. Um the point is what I knew. The point

  • 15:05

    is it that wasn't what the intent was. The first of all, the episode was shot

  • 15:10

    long time ago. Weeks ago. It was It was written six weeks ago. The photo of me in the hospital.

  • 15:15

    Old [ __ ] Yeah. Was from That'll sell. The The photo of me in the hospital was from four years ago.

  • 15:21

    I didn't make a hospital photo to mock anybody. This is all very believable.

  • 15:26

    I happen to have one on deck. Yeah. Well, it's it's it's been on my Instagram for four years. It's still there. Right. I love I love when him and Ammani do

  • 15:32

    this. Yeah. Word. So, no, no, but you know, so I'm just saying just so you know, the episode, which y'all should check out on

  • 15:38

    Patreon on on Joe Button Network, is dope, but it is it's not a shot at anybody. It's all of it. I would never

  • 15:43

    do that. Did you get blocked? No. Did you get a text? No. Well, [ __ ] we good then, [ __ ] No, but I I want I don't want the f I'm

  • 15:49

    getting response enough of a response from the fans that I want them to clear it up then.

  • 15:54

    I care. You know what? I care about the fans and I want I know I know you be on [ __ ]

  • 16:03

    Clean up. Clean up everybody. All right. You know it. Are you done?

  • 16:10

  • 16:15

  • 16:22

    make fun of my sitting next to that [ __ ]

    this one of the songs where he's saying the N word with the ER. The very first record.

  • 18:55

    There's a lot of lot of backlash he's getting right now. People are mad. They trying to boycott it. Well, I saw it on Twitter.

  • 19:00

    Why? What's What's the What's the What's the idea? Um, he was just on the on the record saying the N word with the hard er.

  • 19:07

    I don't want to say it on here, but you know, the way he was saying it, the way of saying it, you look at the cover, cover,

  • 19:13

    he's white. Then the first song you hear, you know what I'm saying? So Oh, he's supposed I'm sorry. I'm slow.

  • 19:18

    I'm looking at the cover. I didn't I didn't think he was He's supposed to be bleached, right? Well, his eyes are blue, too.

  • 19:25

    Not just bleached. I'm not sure what was going on there. Well, Spice did that some years ago. It's Thug doing what Thug does with his

  • 19:32

    album cover. Some [ __ ] to get [ __ ] talking about it. This ain't new. It worked. This is not new. No, it did work. It did work

  • 19:38

    since the purple dress. Not just other cover. the barter six butt naked standing there like

  • 19:44

    he's been doing that. He about to go in. Jo I'm hold let me be clear about

  • 19:51

    I don't [ __ ] with it but if I know what you doing I know how to not fall for that.

  • 19:57

    That's what I said. All right. I know what you're doing. So go ahead.

  • 20:03

    Just a lot of words for white face. It's just a lot of words. You don't even

  • 20:08

    need that many words. Did it hit you with white face when you first saw it? Like when you just when you When I saw that he made his eyes blue,

  • 20:14

    then I'm like cuz at first I just like all right you on some nut nut [ __ ] But once you make the eyes blue that means

  • 20:20

    that oh you you dead ass. Dead ass. You wanted to be the eyes blue mean you dead ass.

  • 20:26

    So then I heard I heard how he I'm like all right I can't wait to see how he makes this connect cuz it's art. So I

  • 20:33

    turn the album on and I see what he tried to do in track one. Uh I'll play it if I can remember the name. Ninja

  • 20:39

    [ __ ] Yeah, I'll play it. I see what he tried to do, but I don't think it resonated well.

  • 20:45

    It connected. I don't think it did at all. So, let's see. It's a long intro. You can skip ahead.

  • 20:52

    I'm not playing all of it, but skip ahead of that. You can just go to the end. Yeah, I'm cool. I'm sorry. Yeah. I'm sorry.

  • 20:58

    I was m I was looking for this at midnight. Want me a little doobie to get in the get in the mood and then by 12:30

  • 21:03

    it still wasn't. So, I went to bed. Yeah. I gave up. What makes that bad is I got to listen to this first thing in the morning. Yeah. So,

  • 21:08

    this is not first thing in the morning review time music for me. No, but this is the song where the ER

  • 21:14

    thing came at the end at the end. Yeah. He's trying to do like a like a little like a white boy type of voice, right?

  • 21:19

    Is that what he's trying to do? That's what that's what it sounded like. And then again with the white cover like I don't know what you're doing. I art is

  • 21:25

    left art is meant to be interpreted or whatever. I don't know your angle. I don't know what you went to do.

  • 21:30

    Up until that point, the song was all right. Yeah. Like it sound like thug. It sound like some club thug music. It wasn't It

  • 21:37

    wasn't It wasn't terrible. It wasn't, "Oh, this is the best [ __ ] in the world." It was all right until you went that route. Now, I don't know what your

  • 21:42

    bowl was. So, I was like, "All right, my [ __ ] Whatever you want, you you got it." Fair. Does Does the album get better?

  • 21:48

    There's some joints here. For sure. I like a couple of joints. I like the TI record a lot. I like uh

  • 21:55

    uh one of the Mariah records was dope. The Little Baby record was pretty dope to me. Um the Luchi record was dope to

  • 22:01

    me. Yeah, the Luchi one. Uh, I like there were some other some solo records that I liked. I don't remember what the song

  • 22:07

    was. Yeah, I don't remember. The Luchi song is so much bigger than just the song. Like that's a big deal, right? And there's two there's two of them

  • 22:12

    because Luchi also dropped his album and Thug is on there as well. I wonder who has the better song. They did one of those type of swaps.

  • 22:18

    But Luchi's isn't out yet, right? They're both out. They're both Okay, I got you. Hot. Yeah, that's what's up though that they

  • 22:25

    collabed. And production wise, this is one of them thing sometimes when I when these records come out, it sounds like one long ass song to me. Yeah, this is No,

  • 22:33

    it's a bunch of different bunch of different [ __ ] which would be another issue I had with the album is it was a little bit all over the place in terms

  • 22:39

    of vibes. Like, it wasn't really like it didn't flow good to me naturally at all,

  • 22:44

    which was an issue with his last album. Then Metro resequenced it and it was much better. Maybe someone needs to do that with this.

  • 22:50

    Oh, sequencing is so important with your album, dog. A lot of people don't get it. It is.

  • 22:55

    They be busy putting this art uh this feature up here and you know what I'm saying? was going to get people to

  • 23:00

    listen earlier. Yo, the way album flow is is I wonder was this planned or was this rush cuz that interview went so big like

  • 23:07

    I wonder did he just try to while his name was still around they try to rush and do it and finish it or was it planned for it to drop right now cuz

  • 23:13

    that Big Bang interview was went crazy. It did. I could see them trying to capitalize on that but he he's been announced this album courtside at the

  • 23:20

    Yeah, they've been teasing album for a long time. For a minute. Well, what the hell does that do? A

  • 23:25

    tease. Who the hell is Atlantic spending some money on? Come on, let's talk. What

  • 23:30

    these [ __ ] spend money on for this album, you mean? Yeah. Card feature. Yeah. Yeah.

  • 23:37

    Money like in terms of promotion. Travis feature. Some of these features probably cost a couple bucks.

  • 23:44

    Okay. But I see what your point is marketing wise. And that's in that's that's a different budget, too. The feature budget.

  • 23:50

    Oh, you're right. I'm just talking about what they spent for again one of more popular artists

  • 23:56

    to let people know that this was coming out. Only thing I saw was a couple I want to say maybe a month month or two ago

  • 24:03

    he started sending spiders to um Oh, he did. Yeah. To like uh media folk like spiders

  • 24:11

    because you know Young Thugs like it was like like the little package but it was real cool. people

  • 24:16

    with the album title in there and and that that's all I saw. That's the only thing I saw. That sound like a very expensive market

  • 24:23

    budget. Back to y'all's cohesive point, right? When I heard Whoopdeoo,

  • 24:29

    I thought that he that's when I thought that he rushed this because I didn't feel like Whoop-dedoo

  • 24:36

    maybe was in there originally. Might not even existed. And And you know what? Hey, check this

  • 24:41

    out. Even if I'm wrong, that means that you purposely turned Whoopde-doo into some [ __ ] about

  • 24:48

    tricking. Yeah. And no way you did you took Whoop-dedoo from the interview and turned it into

  • 24:53

    something about tricking, right? It just fit, right? Am I right?

  • 24:59

    He took advantage of it. Yeah. Which again, but why not? [ __ ] it. I would have had t-shirts already,

  • 25:05

    man. Hit the Instagram producer that made the whoopdedoo uh track that went viral already. cheat the system, put

  • 25:12

    some bars on there and call it a day. But this whoopdedoo, I don't want to speak too soon cuz this [ __ ] might work.

  • 25:17

    Yeah, you still you just No, not saying this just ain't it. Even if it works.

  • 25:24

    I wonder what you feel. Like I would like this song more if he wasn't saying whoop-de-doo.

  • 25:29

    Yeah. If it came out with whatever he was saying originally cuz they just took that out and added Whoopdedoo.

  • 25:34

    It sound like they were saying some other [ __ ] You know what I mean? And they just switched it out. I do like uh I do like

  • 25:42

    on the news. I know. So, [ __ ] is crazy.

  • 25:47

    That was the hook. That was the course. Yeah. Look at y'all.

  • 25:53

    I'm a big Thug fan. I'm underwhelmed so far. I I didn't get chance to listen cuz I was traveling late, but I'm was I'm underwhelmed so far from what y'all played.

  • 25:59

    Well, do you answer them? Do you know how it feel to see finish on the news? Well, you do.

  • 26:05

    You kind of radical. Oh, yeah. Duh. Okay. Seeing uh I want to get to Cardi on this. I do.

  • 26:15

    Once the best heard of Once she begins to describe her side of things, it does tug on the heartstrings.

  • 26:22

    Like I told you to keep it low and you [ __ ] trash [ __ ] I told you keep it low. You started

  • 26:29

    [ __ ] the op [ __ ] Crazy. Like [ __ ] do be [ __ ] the wrong chick sometimes. Like come on. Like

  • 26:34

    sometimes your girl is all right with you being outside and you going to go [ __ ] the three four. You got to go over there and you

  • 26:40

    embarrass. You could have kept it cute. See? Yeah. Yo, she eating on this gloves off.

  • 26:46

    That's that's aggressive. That's why you play with girl. Girls don't know how to play fight.

  • 26:52

    We ain't playing. Well, where was he playing at? No, I'm talking about this part that she

  • 26:57

    at which is she's she's moved on from him. Yeah. Yeah, she's now talking to somebody else that I ain't saying cuz

  • 27:02

    they playing too dirty for me. But god damn, he deserves

  • 27:08

    Hey, you know what? [ __ ] it, man. That beef is never going to end. He deserves it. No, I don't think so. Cardi and Nicki is never going to end.

  • 27:13

    That [ __ ] might as well be [ __ ] Drake and Kendrick now, right? Yeah. You know what would have helped them? If they just fist for it.

  • 27:19

    No, they trying. Let them try. They trying. I'm saying just meet up and just fight. You bring your They don't condone that.

  • 27:26

    They need to fight. No, they don't. They need to get that [ __ ] on. Need to get that [ __ ] off their

  • 27:31

    chest. Men do it all the time. Front men to go around. Okay, we tired of arguing. Come on. Go around back. Nobody see like

  • 27:37

    if y'all was fussing right now. Two of y'all go around the back. Get that [ __ ] on. Come back. A little sweaty. Lip a little bloody. But we passed it. Now we

  • 27:43

    talking about basketball. Women ain't going to do that. Who? And and do you think them two not? But I feel like was only

  • 27:49

    one fighter. If they went around the corner and fought Mhm. What you think going to happen next time

  • 27:54

    one of them get in the booth? Right. That's the whole point of the [ __ ] I beat you up. We We leaving it behind the Target

  • 28:01

    parking lot dumpster. That's what we leaving it at. Don't move like that. It don't work that way. Yeah, that's old school. I know what you

  • 28:07

    talking about. I know what you mean, but that ain't going to happen. No. No. Yeah, that's old school. At the risk of sounding like

  • 28:15

    the women don't know how to just keep it to the hands. They use cars and [ __ ] [ __ ] these

  • 28:20

    [ __ ] will clap you out. I don't know how many women know how to lose a fight today.

  • 28:27

    If you were Cardi like losing fights as people like losing arguments, you know what I mean? Like if y'all were

  • 28:34

    one of them, could you piece it up and start over? If you were Cardi, could you piece it up when they give you Nikki? Could you piece it up with Cardi? Cuz I

  • 28:40

    feel like if I was Cardi and a lot of things that come out were are true, I probably would want to hold that too cuz

  • 28:45

    it's like you you didn't [ __ ] with me before you even knew me. Like that. I kind of lost the plot. I don't even remember what this is all about

  • 28:50

    with the beef. Yeah. I mean, I thought it was, and I don't bite my head off because, you know, but I thought it was

  • 28:56

    just the whole um idea of Nikki wasn't she was real standoffish to people that

  • 29:01

    were coming, the new girls, like that's how they try to pitch it to people. But when people post proof of her being

  • 29:07

    like, you know, mean girlish or whatever, then what? You know what I mean? Yeah. So, I don't think no line has been crossed

  • 29:13

    where there's no coming back from really like not that I know of. Anyway, something might happen. Jeezy, Gucci's made up,

  • 29:21

    but Luchi and Doug like anything can happen. Anything can happen. Here come here come the fans of music

  • 29:26

    still rooting for friendships. Friendships are important, dog. None of these people give a [ __ ]

  • 29:33

    about each other, yo. Yeah, that's Yeah. Nobody is calling the other one to go

  • 29:38

    bowling on a Sunday night. It's not happening. But you know what a problem? Like

  • 29:43

    I'm with you. We don't have to be cool. But I could also

  • 29:49

    like I ain't got to shoot at you no more. You ain't got to shoot at me no more. Because it ain't even really us. It's the people that [ __ ] with me might

  • 29:55

    run into the people that [ __ ] with you. And now something happened where we could part.

  • 30:01

    That's the history of hip hop. That's all. It ain't it ain't the two that's really in it. It's I got a 100

  • 30:07

    [ __ ] that [ __ ] with me and you got 100 [ __ ] that [ __ ] with you and they and three of them happen to run into the other five in the club.

  • 30:13

    And now somebody ain't going home. Well, one, we should do we should get back to our Young Thug review. We should. Oh, okay.

  • 30:18

    Uh, two, I think that they both they they both got too much money. So,

  • 30:24

    and one of them fan bases are crazy. They both got too much money. One of one of them have a very dedicated

  • 30:30

    cultlike fan base. And the fans are a big part of the reason why this [ __ ] go. You know what I

  • 30:37

    mean? They call parole officers and [ __ ] The barbs don't [ __ ] around. Listen. And they for me they ain't been

  • 30:43

    beefing long enough for us to be at that part of it. We on year 39 of John and 50

  • 30:50

    on the guy's side. We got a few beefs that that are ongoing still that

  • 30:55

    I think we we seen that Gucci and Jeezy [ __ ] and we just thought

  • 31:00

    Glocks down was happening nationwide. You said who and who? Jeezy and uh Gucci

  • 31:06

    when they squashed doing the versus and I felt like Gucci was so like shady and that was the most beef squash I've

  • 31:12

    ever seen. That was that just Yeah, that they didn't do that well cuz that didn't even come off like it was even close to real.

  • 31:17

    I was I thought I was going to get shot in my bedroom watching that [ __ ] I I was a little

  • 31:23

    nervous. Gucci gave I hit another one of your friends, [ __ ] Another one could get it if you run up

  • 31:29

    here too quick, [ __ ] All right, play the song. That's actually exactly how it went.

  • 31:35

    That's exactly how he act this [ __ ] You know that little too good here. Play the song. He's a [ __ ] I'm a real

  • 31:42

    street [ __ ] Play the song. Like damn Gucc came off real quirious

  • 31:47

    shady petty like no cuz it been I mean but we get back. It was his life though.

  • 31:52

    In that we get back to thug real quick. In that what you're speaking to. They spoke before it happened and he said yo

  • 31:57

    this is what I'm going to do. Oh they spoke. It was understanding. It was an understanding like, "Yo, I'm going to do

  • 32:02

    this. I'm He get your [ __ ] off, dog." Oh, I wouldn't agree. I would looked like mortified a little bit

  • 32:08

    cuz it still went further than he thought. Yeah. Say everything he going to do, Ice. Like everything. He can't say everything he

  • 32:14

    going to do. But I do need to let you know. I need to let you know

  • 32:19

    which hives we all are in. Oh yeah, I do need to know that. That's true. It's important cuz I let

  • 32:25

    you get the Nikki [ __ ] off. I'm kind of You're right. I'm in that hive a little bit. fit right in with them.

  • 32:31

    But I'm in the hive, too. I I rep all the girls until I be in the hive and the bar. See, I disagree with that.

  • 32:36

    It's impossible. I disagree with that. You can be a nick. I'm a fan of Nikki, but I'm not a Barb. You can't be a Barb

  • 32:42

    and like anybody else. You got to only like her. Like, that's how they get down. I just

  • 32:49

    I mean, you probably let you. But anyway, Ice is Ice is in the Jezy eye

  • 32:54

    big time. For sure. President. Oh, you're the president. For sure. For sure. For sure. Oh.

  • 33:00

    Oh. All right. Parks is in the digable plan of time. For sure.

  • 33:05

    You okay? Just so you know. Solid. Just so you know, he's in the J elect. Oh, for sure.

  • 33:11

    Which is the same as Planet Time. Yeah, exactly. The same house. No, it's not. No, it's not. No, it is.

  • 33:17

    No, he's in a different house. J. Did y'all peep I did J elect. No, I'm also the thing. I both We both We in both the house,

  • 33:23

    man. Eggs at that. Shout out to C knowledge. Shout out to man

  • 33:30

    last name or the god. A lot of y'all got the last name of God. That's what I'm saying. Ifable planets

  • 33:35

    see knowledge who from Philly is a 5enter just like J. There we go. Yeah. It all connects. Are there any other 5enters in the room?

  • 33:44

    No. No. No. And I'm not a 5enter.

  • 33:52

    Touche. You You stopped. No, just cuz I know that the original man is the Asiatic

  • 33:57

    black man making the guy in the universe don't mean that I'm a 5%.

  • 34:06

    That's true. Think I made my case. Once again, I made a case for myself. Flip. What are you in?

  • 34:11

    Um Queens. Queens. LL CoolJ. No, 50. Probably 50.

  • 34:17

    50. Nikki, I think just 50. Yeah, just 50. Okay. cuz she didn't mind remember you

  • 34:24

    on the spaces. I wasn't going to do it. I dropped out. I dropped out. You told your paperwork again?

  • 34:30

    I had to. Wow. What's your name again? Queen's Flop. What?

  • 34:37

    Oh. All right. So, we don't have anything else on Young Thug. I have a question real quick. Joe, I'm in the thug. Seeing that you talked about the

  • 34:42

    sequence of the album, right? Do you think that the featured guests care about the number that they are on the

  • 34:49

    album? You know, back in the days in the mixtapz, people would get mad that they weren't this high on the album or they were on the aside or they weren't like

  • 34:56

    number one or number two or number three. Do you think that artists care about that now? Like features? I don't think so.

  • 35:02

    No, cuz remember that was a big thing when I was younger. I remember that. Yeah. I don't I don't I don't think that's happening. Okay. Now, maybe to some degree. I don't think

  • 35:07

    anybody wants to be on track 25, but So you Okay. But I don't know if there's like a fight

  • 35:13

    for it in the same way. It depends on who you're whose track you're featuring on. I don't think with someone like Young Thug that, you know,

  • 35:18

    Lil Baby sound good in this album, too. He did actually. He did. Lil Baby sounds good. He did. I know the streets be trying to say some

  • 35:24

    other [ __ ] but you still sound good to me. Thought the streets are right, but we sounded good here.

  • 35:31

    Damn. Freeze. What? Freeze. God. Come on, man. We godamn freeze.

  • 35:36

    It start all sounding the same. It's to the point where the streets, same streets he talking about is speaking that he's possibly talking

  • 35:41

    about retiring. It's looking like that. I would love for him not to and get back to what we know

  • 35:48

    he can do, but he ain't there right now. Okay, Freeze. That's all. How does this album do like in terms of numbers? What What do we What do What do

  • 35:54

    you expect from a Young Thug project at this point? It's going to do well. Uh I think buck 50 plus.

  • 36:00

    Oh, just because of the anticipation. I don't know the second week is going to be as good just because I don't think that it's executed as well as he

  • 36:06

    probably should have, but I think it's going to still do well just off the anticipation. M I just had so much high hopes cuz he

  • 36:12

    dropped from jail and the one from jail was like I don't I don't have the high for the

  • 36:17

    numbers. I don't have him doing 100. Really? I thought a buck 20 might be pushing it

  • 36:22

    even though he fresh out. I don't think it's many people care that

  • 36:28

    you know what I'm I don't know. I think the highest I don't think that the consumer

  • 36:33

    cares about that like the internet would lead you to believe. That's what I'm saying. And there's been nothing to make them care about that. There's been no single.

  • 36:40

    There's been nothing that he's been doing to say a lot of people didn't even know this album was dropping. Yeah, I didn't. It was. And then it was was

  • 36:46

    supposed to drop last week. Then he said, "I'm moving it because of Cardi." Um, letting the women have their thing first thing. You dropped the same day

  • 36:52

    there. Do those catap. So yeah, you might you guys might be

  • 36:57

    right. The last one is going from jail, right, with the courthouse. Um, as the tri Yeah, this is a business.

  • 37:02

    That [ __ ] he said about Carney was the first thing it let me Oh, all right. Yeah, I hear you big, right? I'm glad you're here.

  • 37:08

    What a gentleman. I let the ladies ass get a $200. I didn't even get that because you moved

  • 37:13

    to DOA's week who puts up numbers. But she did. It's a pop album for Dojo though, right? Super super. It's like real. Let me ask you a

  • 37:19

    question, Ice. Do do you think that he has the kind of fan base that no matter what he put out, they going to support they going to buy it cuz I that's why I

  • 37:25

    feel like the the thug fans, we don't care. We just it's it's him. I don't I

  • 37:31

    think that he has a he has a hive as talking about hives. Um I don't think they they're going to buy enough to push

  • 37:36

    him up to the numbers that everybody talking about. Okay. I mean it'll be listened to. It'll be streamed. Um

  • 37:42

    I don't know Thug fans to spend money. I don't know of a tour that Thug has ever headlined nationwide.

  • 37:50

    I don't know of like like I haven't I know he had the

  • 37:55

    spider line but I don't see it like that out outside of influencers was been

  • 38:00

    given a couple pieces. I see a couple. When you say that you saying like the clothes Yeah. that hoodie did numbers in the ghetto.

  • 38:06

    Everybody got the spider hoodie. I get the real ones or they get the ones from my man part. Now that part I

  • 38:11

    wouldn't know but they were really really like um people like them like they're everywhere. But you right they could be

  • 38:16

    played in some bright. Yeah. I ain't seen nothing that shows me he moves the needle like that.

  • 38:22

    I think Atlantic is just pushing [ __ ] off the diving board and not really giving whatever happen happen.

  • 38:29

    Let's see who does Let's see what we got over here. Sink or swim. I think that's with all of them over there. I have nothing to back that just

  • 38:35

    but my knowledge of record labels. They ain't about to support [ __ ] I think it's Atlantic. I think it's 300.

  • 38:41

    Whatever they going through, somebody's missing from these young thug sessions. What is this under? Somebody's not there

  • 38:47

    that used to be there. You could be the biggest Young Thug fan in the world. This music don't sound like what you're

  • 38:53

    accustomed to. True. It don't sound like they behind now. And we got to grade him on a curve

  • 38:58

    cuz he depressed. He depressed. Or he just happy to get his friends back. He's just happy that [ __ ] 21 is

  • 39:04

    texting again. And he like we can't we can't we can't even really judge the music cuz he done been through so much.

  • 39:10

    Yeah. So it's like this is just all around the board. just off. But hey, Atlantic I mean

  • 39:19

    Atlantic and Atlanta will love it. Yeah, I about to say the Thug fans I know they're [ __ ] with the album. So

  • 39:25

    So if y'all are happy with it, then and y'all told me when I said that, hey, maybe some of that Gunner sauce could be

  • 39:32

    used over there while we standing on our He's a rat morals is heat on them Gunner

  • 39:37

    albums. Mhm. That's all I'm saying. I know he's a rat. Y'all don't want to talk to him. He

  • 39:42

    did the Alfred plea. Hey, I would put the Alfred plea to the side for a second and at least get a packet a pack from

  • 39:50

    him. I would think I would. When he says on a Big Bang album, I don't got my twin with me. I don't got my nobody in the studio. I thought he

  • 39:55

    was talking about Gunner for real. I thought I thought he was too. Okay, let make it short. Who who else was he talking about?

  • 40:00

    I don't know. [ __ ] I think he was talking about Gunner cuz he then went into how and I lost this

  • 40:06

    person not because they died, right? The same thing Cardi said on that verse uh on this song. She smoked that [ __ ]

  • 40:13

    I'm quit riding now. But first album, fresh out of jail, masterpiece. It was so good. It's so

  • 40:19

    [ __ ] good. Like rat schmat. He ain't tell on me. It's 2025. That's what it's about. He ain't tell on me. Let's be

  • 40:26

    real. Like I don't want to go off on a tangent, but like I mean back in the

  • 40:33

    day, I'm talking about our grandparents, you know, running around the streets. [ __ ] might kill you for telling

  • 40:38

    on them, right? Yeah, us as kids, you get beat up or at least [ __ ] want to take a picture with you. They don't want to be seen with

  • 40:43

    you. It's taboo. Now a [ __ ] get in a picture, he just put somebody in the middle of him. The rat be here, it be

  • 40:48

    two [ __ ] and the other [ __ ] And that same person, I don't deal with rats. It's [ __ ] People [ __ ] with rats. Especially if a rat got some money, you

  • 40:55

    good. You safe in the hood, wherever. And the people at home, cuz I said that somewhere else, people was fake mad.

  • 41:00

    Y'all could be fake mad all you want. Look around. These rats are all mixed the [ __ ] in. Every time I had this

  • 41:05

    conversation with somebody and they I don't [ __ ] with rats. I literally say, "No, you [ __ ] with boo booie." You know,

  • 41:10

    like everybody does it now. It's just not as stable as it used to be. And everybody so money hungry if a

  • 41:16

    [ __ ] buy you a pair of sneaks. You know what I mean? [ __ ] call another [ __ ] twin. You know, big bro.

  • 41:22

    Big bro on all. That's the fight we've been having up here a little bit cuz some of us have been like, if you don't [ __ ] rats,

  • 41:28

    you can't make music with them. You shouldn't be even having them on your record label. Or if you do, keep a distance. Other people like, yo, this is a business. No.

  • 41:33

    You know, I'm on the side of, you know, I mean, if I don't want nothing to do with the person, right? Because ratting is a character

  • 41:38

    flaw. Ratting is bigger than telling. The fact that you can have this relationship with a person and everything is good, but once the police

  • 41:44

    come in that you'll turn on them, that's something wrong with you internally. The rat is just showing it. So if the hottest artist in the world is

  • 41:49

    a rat, you don't you don't and they offer you a feature. If you live by that cold, [ __ ] no to do

  • 41:55

    me. Yeah. Um, no. I'm not in the streets. I'm not in the streets. So if the world's biggest comedian was a rat and said, "Open for me," you would

  • 42:01

    be good with it. You [ __ ] right. But how do you live by that cold and be a rapper? And that's the thing. Maybe you can't.

  • 42:07

    That's the thing I'm asking. I don't know. You got to figure out a way. You They have to figure out a point where

  • 42:12

    they they turn away from that [ __ ] You know what I mean? You have to make a choice as a man or as a woman. Okay, I'm

  • 42:18

    not about this life anymore. If you rapping and you still in the streets, then you going to still hold that code. The reason why that code is not so

  • 42:24

    prevalent to me because years ago when I started this, I decided I don't want to be in the street no more. So, the code kind of gets it get blur. It don't even

  • 42:30

    look as important as it is to you when you live a different lifestyle. But at the end of the day, all y'all

  • 42:36

    [ __ ] at home talking about y' don't [ __ ] with rats. Yes, you do. Look around. Look at your Look in your iCloud from this past year. See how many

  • 42:42

    pictures you took with [ __ ] that told on somebody. Please stop playing around. Everybody know rats. It's just we just in a different day and time. You know

  • 42:48

    what I mean? Yo, that's it. Yo, what's her name? Uh, I saw I think this is like not official confirmation,

  • 42:53

    but Nicki Minaj tweeted a picture of a CD and the date is 32726.

  • 43:00

    32726. People saying that's a new album release. interesting timing and to release it now. But also, what do y'all

  • 43:06

    think? First of all, do we care? Are you crazy? Of course we care. No, not about a new album about that tweet. Like, do you I guess what I'm ask

  • 43:12

    is really, do you trust that me? Do you believe it? It's really weird to announce a release date 6 months ahead of time.

  • 43:17

    And right after your [ __ ] Sworn Enemy drops, like why? Yeah, that's why people look at her like that

  • 43:23

    though, cuz she do [ __ ] like that. Okay, you going to try to get me out of my All right, I see. All right, I see

  • 43:28

    what's going on. What are you saying about that, Joe? What are you potting? Joe, I'm potting, babe.

  • 43:34

    That's right. I'm potting and I'm in the mic, [ __ ] You hear me?

  • 43:40

    I'm in clear. What do you think about that, Joseph? About what? What she just said? What' you say? I need you to take a stab.

  • 43:46

    Don't play both sides. Don't just get by. Don't be a What do you think? What you said? What' you say?

  • 43:52

    She She said that's why people don't [ __ ] with Nicki Minaj because she does [ __ ] like that. And my question to you,

  • 43:59

    Joe Button, is what do you think about that? people people that have that take. It's understandably so. I can I can see I can see how they can

  • 44:09

    see. Huh. The man is learning too quickly. Hey, you know what? Yeah, I'm announcing

  • 44:18

    my album right in the middle of whatever that [ __ ] doing. The [ __ ] are y'all?

  • 44:23

    Hold up for a second now. Yeah, my mortal enemy. It look like she's succeeding. It look like people paying

  • 44:30

    attention to what she got going on. Hold up, March. Hey, I'm calling my engine.

  • 44:36

    Hey, mix it. Is it mixed? Have it mixed my march, [ __ ] My march and I'm going

  • 44:44

    to Twitter and I'm letting you know. Hey, me who just sold out all these arenas

  • 44:50

    internationally and domestically. Me who's still numero uno around here in

  • 44:56

    her brain. In her brain. She is in her brain. No, she is. No, she is. She is. It ain't just in her brain.

  • 45:01

    She is. And you know, she ain't been dethroned. I hate that about I just put numbers on the board. My last album to prove my point.

  • 45:07

    Yes, I'm tweeting that my album is dropping. Sometimes these podcasters put out their opinions and things and I want

  • 45:14

    to go to Twitter and put the date my next podcast is dropping,

  • 45:19

    but I don't cuz I'm mature. I feel like and it's a Nikki defense

  • 45:24

    like I I can only couldn't even like try to put myself in that place to how she feels because to me she one of the

  • 45:31

    hottest ever and they always put her in the girl group. It's always like oh she she better than this girl but it's like she one of the hottest ever. She already

  • 45:37

    put that down. She's a legend and it's not no it shouldn't be a girl thing and I know that probably you know annoys her

  • 45:43

    but you doing [ __ ] like that it's like uh why are we doing that? And you know why I like it too? [ __ ] it

  • 45:49

    now. [ __ ] it. We out here. [ __ ] it. We we we out on the street naked again.

  • 45:57

    You know why? Why you keep saying we? I don't know what the [ __ ] he talking about. We park ice a said nothing. Flip a said on

  • 46:04

    me involve that couch. This is why I like it too. Cardi just told uh uh JT and B and them,

  • 46:14

    hey, I'm going to handle y'all on my project when I get ready to, not when

  • 46:19

    y'all are ready for me to. And that's what she did. So now Cardi comes out and

  • 46:24

    maybe this is Nikki. No, maybe. Maybe. So Nikki says,

  • 46:31

    "I'll see you in I'm going to deal I'm going to deal with you on my album and I fully expect that

  • 46:38

    to happen." Uh, but I don't think it'll be fireworks. I don't think we're going to get fireworks from them, too. I think

  • 46:43

    we're going to just keep getting passive aggressive. Just I don't [ __ ] with you. I don't [ __ ] with you. And that's okay in music, too. That part, right? Don't

  • 46:50

    keep wanting everybody to be friends. Everybody hates each other. I've been saying it for as long as this podcast

  • 46:56

    has existed. Nobody I I don't [ __ ] with you. I don't like you. No, you can't come to

  • 47:02

    Thanksgiving. Hates each other though. No, a lot of you A lot of you [ __ ] hate each other. Actually hate.

  • 47:07

    Yeah. It ain't just a dislike. It's I hate this hat. And it just be like I'm just waiting for

  • 47:13

    them to just give me that I hate you, but I don't want to jump first. It be a lot of that. That's my question. Why didn't every Why

  • 47:19

    doesn't everybody respond to the disc when they hear that a person like that this is Cardi B this one album? Why doesn't everybody drop a 16? Say

  • 47:25

    something. No, I'm with my I'm lucky I can't rap. I would have

  • 47:30

    dropped this is for all the podcasters. No, look to answer your question though. They they'll drop like just like Cardi

  • 47:36

    did. I heard the [ __ ] y'all was saying. Okay, I'm going to drop when it works for me to drop. This is still a business.

  • 47:42

    Make it make sense. I'm not giving out no free vert like drop the disc over here. She definitely did it well though.

  • 47:48

    Yeah. Again, way to go Young Thugs. Congrats on your album. Congrats, Thug.

  • 47:53

    We love you so much. [ __ ] have talked about everything, but you got like one or two songs to talk

  • 47:59

    about. Get an anti-depressant. Don't be embarrassed to take an anti-depressant. I am going to listen to it again at night. I feel like this is much better

  • 48:04

    nighttime music than morning music. And maybe I'll feel a little differently, but probably not. It's cool. That's my

  • 48:10

    improve. I've gotten too much Lyrical Miracle this year for me to be able to go back to whatever he doing on here.

  • 48:17

    See, I like that as the balance for me. I usually do, but I just it just I couldn't hear it this early in the morning, though. I like it when it's good. I don't think

  • 48:24

    this is him just at his best. Again, it don't sound like Doug though. Doug at his best. This just sound like

  • 48:30

    he going through something. So, again, you got to grade it on the curve because you know what he going through. Yeah, fair enough.

  • 48:37

    Uh, is there anything else in music that needs our attention? I mean, we got a DOA album. It's a pop Doaat album. I skimmed through it. Um,

  • 48:45

    it's a pop album. It feels like a Sabrina Carpenter album with Doaat and it is written by Jack produced written

  • 48:51

    by Jack Antonoff who does Sabrina Carpenter and all Taylor Swift and all the pop stars. So, I don't know how that

  • 48:57

    guy ever sleeps. He does a lot of [ __ ] huge music. Salute. He did the Kendrick He did the Kendrick album.

  • 49:02

    Like, he does everything major. It's not bad. There's a scissor feature on it, too. It It's It's um a lot of 80s pop kind of vibes.

  • 49:09

    Yes. If If you're into pop music, you're going to like it. Yes, you are. It's It's a It's a solid album, but if you in

  • 49:14

    for something else, don't don't manage your expectations. You're going to be disappointed. Yeah. Uh Mariah dropped the album. It

  • 49:21

    kind of sounds like uh listening to the the audio equivalent of watching Payton

  • 49:26

    Manning on the Broncos. Parks. I need something else.

  • 49:31

    What's that? Get the football reference. English. Yeah. Yeah. Her voice doesn't

  • 49:36

    have the same power that it used to have. Play that. Let me You're a damn lie.

  • 49:42

    You're a goddamn lie. I love Mariah Carey. This is I mean um I

  • 49:48

    think this is a record that might exist

  • 49:53

    track. I like the production, the songwriting and all that stuff. I don't think it was great for

  • 49:58

    Okay. Like this is one in in her prime she would absolutely smoked. Got it. This don't sound like Mariah Carey

  • 50:03

    though to me. Yeah. Right. And what's crazy is it's not bad. It's just not carry. Let it play at that volume. Let it play at that

  • 50:09

    volume. Okay. Let it play at that volume for me. I hate that. Okay. Here we go. Turn it down a little bit. But I still

  • 50:15

    want to be able to hear the beat. See, I think that this song is fire is just a writing issue. Like what I'm hearing, if

  • 50:22

    I were Mariah Carey, it would go a little something like this. Tell me if this fixes things for fans. Turn up a

  • 50:28

    little bit. I wrote the Christmas song.

  • 50:33

    So [ __ ] on the Christmas song.

  • 50:39

    I take you. I think you [ __ ] forgot. Make my wish come true, [ __ ]

  • 50:47

    Yeah. Yeah. On the Christmas song. And it's almost that time. It's almost

  • 50:53

    that time. Holy [ __ ] It's October.

  • 50:59

    Get your gift.

  • 51:05

    You're right. You're right. Does that fix the [ __ ] right

  • 51:12

    Halloween parade? They talking about the Halloween parade playing that [ __ ] Wait, guess how the next song was

  • 51:18

    for sure. For sure. Yo, they know who to not let own the

  • 51:24

    Christmas song. Boy, I would get a J. She just sounds really different. She

  • 51:29

    does. Yeah, [ __ ] Make my wish come true, [ __ ] All I want from the opening song, she's singing like I'm

  • 51:34

    a bad [ __ ] and [ __ ] like that, which like a cool idea, but because I own a Christmas song.

  • 51:39

    She sung the lyrics, I'm a bad [ __ ] Yeah, something. I cannot imagine her saying

  • 51:45

    has such a beautiful tone uh historically and on what you just played, it just sounds different cuz they brought it down. Also, she sing

  • 51:53

    like out. Yeah, it's not as strong. Oh, man. But she's still a great singer. How long y'all want people to be able to sing? That's a good question. We just talked

  • 51:59

    about Stevie the other day. Like don't bring that [ __ ] up. That [ __ ] the Stevie performance was so Stevie

  • 52:05

    disrespect me. I think he couldn't see the lyrics. Stevie didn't know the words, man. He didn't know. He couldn't see the

  • 52:11

    lyrics. That's like when I'm telling somebody the song like, "Yo, you know,

  • 52:16

    I have a strong hate for people that put the camera in their face and they rap a song and they don't know the lyrics." I

  • 52:21

    have a real hate for those kind of people. You laughing. They tearing your ass up, too. I hate a [ __ ] that don't

  • 52:26

    know the words to a song. And then you'll do this like just mumble it. Oh my god, it's so weird.

  • 52:33

    Wait, another ugly voice, [ __ ] I ain't listen to you. Wait, leave her alone. Leave her alone. What?

  • 52:38

    Who? My voice. Leave her. No. And Mona could be like, "My voice is so beautiful."

  • 52:46

    for the temptation. What's the deep voice?

  • 52:56

    Now we're talking because he's taken this voice lures them in.

  • 53:02

    Like [ __ ] from Queens cuz you know it a glitch.

  • 53:09

    She didn't come right. I used to be like I used to be like hold up y

  • 53:17

    first of all that could have br a lot of traumatic things back to me cuz I had a bad

  • 53:22

    experience parks do you want to hear it they would call my house and they would say they would say hello is Wanda

  • 53:28

    available to that and I would say no my mom's not here and they would go oh is this her son oh [ __ ] and it used to hurt me I would yell back

  • 53:35

    sometime no [ __ ] it's her daughter and that helped you feel me and that helped but at this point at this big old

  • 53:41

    age I like my raspy voice. I have a great rap voice. If this [ __ ] writing me raps, we going number one. Go like this. Go up.

  • 56:18

    Uh, did you guys see the Ace Bailey news while while we're in sports? Yeah. Yeah.

  • 56:23

    This is such an unfortunate thing that is in here because I know he had a lot to to say about

  • 56:29

    um this situation. He had a lot of analysis when we first started talking about the NBA draft, but it seems that Ace Bailey has officially uh fired his

  • 56:37

    agent. Yeah. Um my my question is why now

  • 56:43

    and why not three months ago? Like what what why do you do it now?

  • 56:49

    More knowledge uh you learn more or uh that little video went viral.

  • 56:55

    Yeah. Which one? The one with dude waves. You know that's been that's been out for months.

  • 57:00

    But but again, for those that don't know, Ace Bailey, the criticism of Ace Bailey's team is that they they lowered his

  • 57:05

    the allegation is that they lowered his draft stock by keeping him away from certain teams, by not working out for certain teams, by seeming like he was

  • 57:11

    only going to play for East Coast teams, specifically DC. He didn't want to play for Philly. Uh, and I think New York was

  • 57:18

    a team that he did want to play for. There were just there were a few select teams he wanted to play for. Also, Ace

  • 57:23

    Bailey is a basketball player. Yes, I'm sorry. Yes, he's a basketball player. He went to Ruckers.

  • 57:29

    I want to say he's the fifth pick in the NBA draft to the Utah Jazz. Uh, and

  • 57:34

    there was a lot of talk around him getting rid of his uh, sports agent who I want to say is from Jersey.

  • 57:41

    Jersey, right? He's from Jersey. Yeah. And Ish has some type of relation

  • 57:46

    to him. So, we would have loved for him to be here to get the inside scoop on this, but he is not.

  • 57:52

    And because I know Ish, I will not give my real opinion on this one. What do you guys think? I

  • 57:58

    I I'll give I'll give mine um because I I don't like to play both both sides. Uh I

  • 58:06

    I think that uh this I think a couple things. One, I Ace Bailey might be the greatest kid ever. I don't know anything

  • 58:11

    about him. Everything I've heard about him is that he's a good kid. So I I this isn't about Ace Bailey. This is about sometimes having the right people around

  • 58:17

    you to make the right decisions at the right time. And it looks like whatever his team did from draft day forward was

  • 58:24

    just bad. It put him in a bad position. I think it's going to hurt his his his reputation in the short term. It's is it

  • 58:30

    surmountable? Yeah. But right now, his team put him in a bad position. They may have done amazing things for him before he got drafted. And I've heard great

  • 58:36

    things about his team. I've heard great things about how they support young players. I'm not coming for the whole team or even his agent in particular,

  • 58:43

    but what I will say is they mishandled the situation very poorly. And I and I've seen this multiple times. Remember

  • 58:49

    when Ricky Williams got drafted back in the day in the NFL? Yeah. And he signed with Master P. Yeah. That contract. Woo. Oh boy.

  • 58:55

    It was an incentive based deal entirely. Entirely incentive based deal as if no other agent had considered that before.

  • 59:00

    There's a reason why you don't do all incentive based deals. Um and and again we've seen bad representation happen multiple times.

  • 59:06

    And this guy as I understand it uh is not a registered agent in the league which also was a flag for some people.

  • 59:13

    So you know shout out to Ace Bailey for making a different decision. And hopefully this decision allows him to

  • 59:18

    correct course. He's 19 so he has a whole future in front of him. he can be have an amazing career, but right now

  • 59:24

    this is a bad choice. I mean, Joe, you're you're in the music business obviously. Um, and you've had

  • 59:29

    representation before. Have you ever had those moments where the people that got you there couldn't get you any further

  • 59:34

    and you had to say it's it's funny that you say that, Mike. I was sitting here thinking I have a little bit of empathy

  • 59:40

    for Ace One. However good or not so good of a sports

  • 59:46

    agent Omar Cooper was once the word is out about you then that's what it is

  • 59:51

    kind of it's kind of a perception becomes a reality type thing one two from A's uh POV it's tough sometimes to

  • 1:00:00

    know when somebody has taken you as far as they are going to take you

  • 1:00:05

    like it's tough to be able to to reconcile that

  • 1:00:11

    so to the people that say I think it was you to just as why now [ __ ] maybe that's

  • 1:00:16

    why right like he was seen just last week I mean not last week last month at Dyman court uh together his pictures of

  • 1:00:23

    them two so I mean they clearly were still somewhat close uh but why now yeah I think yeah it

  • 1:00:31

    takes a while to reconcile like I said earlier knowledge you you learn more you you get more of an understanding and you

  • 1:00:37

    when you go different places people probably a lot of people been talking about wasn't it Omar

  • 1:00:42

    Omar Yeah, you know, a lot of people have been sharing their opinions on him and I don't think Ace wanted to be

  • 1:00:48

    looked at as that way based off of his representations. That's a really good point that both y'all make cuz again, Omar could be the

  • 1:00:54

    greatest agent ever fall. I know. But if the perception is that he's not, that that makes it that makes it harder to navigate. Have you ever read to do that?

  • 1:01:00

    Were you ready to cut bait like with like reputation? I mean, it's all it's hard. I mean, I know similar people it's it's hard

  • 1:01:07

    to make that decision especially when you when you live by a certain code. Yeah. Right. It's hard to even right when you

  • 1:01:13

    live by loyalty. Yeah. You know, that's where the loyalty people come in. And that's why that's why I That's why I

  • 1:01:18

    agree with you on that when you say like I I I was always against what you were saying, but now I understand as I

  • 1:01:24

    progress I understand where you like, man, that loy cuz loyalty that loyalty phrase, that word, it holds you back. It holds you back. It it it's an

  • 1:01:31

    invisible tie that attaches two people. And no matter if you go five steps,

  • 1:01:36

    they're like two steps behind you. So, And that loyalty should be in

  • 1:01:41

    perpetuity. Oh, just And I don't I don't want none of my contracts in perpetuity. No way on

  • 1:01:47

    earth. I want to be able to wake up one day and and assess differently without being

  • 1:01:53

    strapped to what I thought the night before. In music, what helps with this is for the artists that have a hard

  • 1:01:59

    time, uh, what helps is you managers can manage for the next 80 years. That's a

  • 1:02:05

    good point. The artists can't. That is a great point. So I would assume

  • 1:02:10

    that some of that does exist in sports as well. You can be a sports agent for the rest of your life. I have this small

  • 1:02:17

    window where I have to make the right decisions. Yeah. Yeah. And and that that always made me feel better about

  • 1:02:22

    fireman. I had a question with that say what fire. Yeah. I had to fire my agent one time and I didn't want to cuz I felt like

  • 1:02:28

    this is the person that got me my first TV job and and so I got to stay with them forever and it's like well if I get cold

  • 1:02:34

    enough he's going to cut me. So he's not he's not doing it cuz he loves me. He's doing it cuz it's it's

  • 1:02:39

    good business for him. And so once he get far as a question, you know what else happens too? I'm sorry, Ice. You

  • 1:02:45

    know what else happens too as a as a artist and maybe sometimes as a athlete

  • 1:02:50

    like you only know the the relationship with your manager as it pertains to you.

  • 1:02:56

    You always stuck in that bubble because that's the line of communication. You and your manager. You you very rarely do

  • 1:03:02

    you know what the rest of the managers in the business think of the business

  • 1:03:08

    think of your manager until you get drafted to a team and now you got a bunch of people that are probably your age or contemporaries like

  • 1:03:13

    yo that's what's going on I should go like this same with lawyers same with agents all of that [ __ ] rings true

  • 1:03:19

    y that's how I found out when you ask um cuz back to the loyalty part with an artist that um per a manager

  • 1:03:27

    whatever that may have discovered you took you to this point or the the first agent Like the question becomes, how much how long do I got to repay this

  • 1:03:34

    loyalty to you? Right? You get what I'm saying? Like all right, cool. You roll with me for 10 years. Well, however many years like,

  • 1:03:40

    and you made a lot of money and at what point are we good where if I decide to leave,

  • 1:03:45

    you don't feel away? Yeah. Like I've repaid my debt that you owe. So you can still be friends. Like some

  • 1:03:51

    people take that. Yeah. See, that's why I don't do that childhood friendship. Yeah. So you can't let they say because [ __ ] just call n I just you I

  • 1:03:58

    hate when you do that and then I hear some [ __ ] about [ __ ] calling you and you looking out for [ __ ] Stop it please.

  • 1:04:03

    They say don't let your um loyalty become slavery. But that's really true cuz when so you in a situation where you being loyal and the person is being

  • 1:04:10

    loyal to you, but if you look at the big scheme of you know why that person is being loyal to you, you the ticket. Why the [ __ ] are you still that loyal to

  • 1:04:16

    that person? And I feel like if you do have a relationship because my experience on it is like when you're in

  • 1:04:22

    it, it's hard to see it. You know what I mean? So, it's like everybody, like you said before, everybody around you can see it. But when you say if not now,

  • 1:04:28

    when it like why now? And my thing is like if not now, then when? Because I'm going have to stick here stuck in it or

  • 1:04:34

    I'm going to make this decision and do it right now. You know what I mean? Real quick, what what did LeBron do for his friends? Well, that's what I was about to that's

  • 1:04:39

    where I was about to go cuz the the other thing about this is a lot of times the people who are your

  • 1:04:45

    childhood friends that become your managers if you're a rapper or an athlete, the the talent they've had and demonstrate is being your friend. It

  • 1:04:51

    is very rare that the people around you happen to also be talented in the thing that you need them to do. LeBron is exceptional.

  • 1:04:57

    Jay-Z too with Tat. Yeah, exactly. But Jay-Z also knew how to strategically place people and and to

  • 1:05:02

    develop their talent. That's what LeBron did. That's what LeBron did, right? But also, study up under him and learn the game

  • 1:05:07

    and Right. But Rich Paul is uniquely talented and that's rare to have somebody who's that talented. My man, what's his name? Uh, also

  • 1:05:14

    Maverick. Maverick. Maverick. Maverick. Dallas. I see how you I see how you got there. Yeah, you were

  • 1:05:19

    close. Maverick. Yeah. Mary Carter is also an an incredibly talented person. That's rare. Usually your mans and them be your

  • 1:05:25

    mans and them. And you and when you're an athlete and you get drafted at 18, 19 years old,

  • 1:05:30

    you're talking about teenagers. How the [ __ ] do I know? That's why I don't like using LeBron and

  • 1:05:36

    Jay-Z and I hate the LeBron. Whoever the outliers may be cuz there's so anyway, what's the negotiate?

  • 1:05:43

    This is the worst advice there is that you could possibly give somebody. Mhm.

  • 1:05:48

    Normal people, not not Cuz when someone said exceptional, it's them a lot of times.

  • 1:05:53

    What are you negotiating with LeBron? Right. Max Neil, please. Right. I see what you're saying. Okay. No, no, I'm not going to do that. Those

  • 1:06:00

    brothers did have to go read and learn and speak to people and make the

  • 1:06:05

    mistakes and bump their head and shout out to them for that circle and what they did. They are them [ __ ]

  • 1:06:11

    Sometimes you bump into a crew where hey, all of us got a little bit of that [ __ ] in us and it manifest. We going to

  • 1:06:18

    help it manifest together. That's not typ That's not typical. That's the rarest of rare. So in music,

  • 1:06:24

    when it's time to get a lawyer, get a lawyer. When it's time to get a driver,

  • 1:06:30

    get someone who knows the streets, knows the traffic, knows vehicles, know has

  • 1:06:35

    been doing the laws, the police. Get somebody that knows how to do that. Security. That's the one. Someone who knows. I was

  • 1:06:43

    I was literally going to ask you that like in the thought of cuz I guess the the thought of is like I

  • 1:06:48

    want to bring these people with me. With me it was always I want to trust who's around me. So why can't I just get this

  • 1:06:54

    person to take a class and learn how to do this or get this person to you know like and then I'll have a team that but

  • 1:06:59

    it doesn't it never works out that way. Security like you said that's the first one you get your [ __ ] to do security.

  • 1:07:05

    They don't get the class to do X Y and you be robbed in the corner while your security cousin is in the corner getting

  • 1:07:10

    a number. like they just don't and not even that. All right, you hired your friend that you trust and and that

  • 1:07:15

    person is getting you three three grand when somebody that is qualified should be getting you 10 and 15, right?

  • 1:07:21

    They may be doing their best. Again, they're just not good enough. You out there slaving for the for the whatever you think this fee is.

  • 1:07:28

    You don't even know. You said that's the worst advice to give somebody that they could get the people to learn and all

  • 1:07:33

    that around them. Don't hire your friends in roles that don't suit them. Unless they're fired,

  • 1:07:40

    unless they're not out the gate. If your friend went to law school, maybe that's the perfect person. I ain't got no law school friends.

  • 1:07:46

    That's what I'm saying. I'm with you. But even with that, a lot of times school that sometimes it's like, I don't

  • 1:07:52

    even want to bring you in. Look, you rock over there and I'm a rock over there. I want I get that too. I want my lawyer

  • 1:07:57

    I'm hiring to know me as the person that's hiring this lawyer. I don't need me and you to have gone to Capitol Grill

  • 1:08:04

    together when we grew up. I don't need you to have that real quick. I just learned something like that. I I want He

  • 1:08:10

    grew up good, right? Damn. I'm like Applebees, man. Hold on. I want somebody to be loyal grow up capital. I'm sorry. Flip. That

  • 1:08:16

    was shocking. These Jersey [ __ ] man. It's like godamn. I want somebody to be loyal to the work instead of loyal to me. That's what I I

  • 1:08:23

    started to learn. Like if if you're loyal to the work and you know what you're doing, you're you you came here for a job. [ __ ] the friendship because

  • 1:08:30

    you're dedicated to do your best at the job that you know how to do. You know what those are? So I prefer you professionals.

  • 1:08:36

    Yes. Yeah. That's what I learn. A lot of time. [ __ ] watch your [ __ ] line. Talking. Well, say it while I'm

  • 1:08:42

    talking, [ __ ] Say it while they talking. You know he said looking, right? That's

  • 1:08:48

    what I was. That's what I am looking for. Yeah, heard about finish.

  • 1:08:55

    Anyway. Yeah. So y'all smoked that. A lot of real good points from that. Yeah, lot of really real and best of

  • 1:09:02

    luck to to hold. I hate when [ __ ] try to switch up cuz new [ __ ] here want to give

  • 1:09:09

    [ __ ] want to give compliment. Camera on me. [ __ ] want to give compliments and [ __ ] right now. Oh good job. Don't try

  • 1:09:14

    to [ __ ] You want to do that before, [ __ ] Don't stop the part to give compliments, [ __ ] I like it. I wasn't actively doing a Kim test

  • 1:09:20

    before either. I watch this. I don't do it while I'm here, [ __ ] Kim test while I'm not here. It's positive. That's actually was the

  • 1:09:25

    first recommendation about bonuses. Oh [ __ ] If we do well, you can like I got veto though. I got veto. Don't

  • 1:09:31

    worry. You hear us? I I I can't hear my new hire. He's doing Wait, hold up for a minute. Hold up.

    That's not a job to come on. That's immediately. That's what I had to tell them.

  • 1:10:26

    Hey, them little letters that you got to write to the judge. I wrote it because real [ __ ]

  • 1:10:33

    but then the judge wanted to know like what he was going to make, too.

  • 1:10:38

    I had to do a few drafts.

  • 1:10:43

    Yeah. I had to ask.

  • 1:10:48

    They might try to keep you to what you said in one of these papers downing

  • 1:10:54

    sign it now. Oh my god. Shout out to Freedway. Freedway. What else? What else needs our attention?

  • 1:11:00

    Well, speaking of Oh, there's a couple things. Uh Nas had a very successful week this week.

  • 1:11:06

    Shout Nas, man. Queens is getting a casino. 5.5 billion

    they threw they threw shots at Jay-Z in that. Yo, Jay, we got accepted. Um, it's great, man. Shout out to Nas. I think

  • 1:11:49

    The world's biggest casino in Queens. Yeah. Watch your [ __ ] mouth, Mon. You know, not like that. Who the [ __ ] won what?

  • 1:11:55

    It just I don't know. I can't I couldn't picture it. But yeah. So, how long do you think that's going to take? I can't picture the world's biggest

  • 1:12:00

    casino in Queens. There's no shade. But first, it was the aqueduct, though. It was It was a racetrack. It was a horse racetrack that day. I bought my first piece of jewelry at

  • 1:12:06

    the coliseum. Shout out to Queens. Well, why you didn't just first piece of little crack broad street or somewhere we

  • 1:12:12

    don't? First of all, we go to jewelers in Philadelphia. The real diamond in the city.

  • 1:12:19

    It said jewelers or jewelers? Jewelers. That's where we get our jewel our jewels

  • 1:12:24

    from. Thank you. No jewels from broad street, man. Come on. I don't know. Yeah, we don't know, [ __ ] We from New

  • 1:12:29

    York. We go to Benny's. I'm like, we went to We went to Benny's [ __ ] [ __ ] some [ __ ] from out there.

  • 1:12:35

    Hey, wait. Where's the big clock? Was it 13th for Locus? They on his ass, too. Oh my god. Was it 13th for Locus?

  • 1:12:42

    Where you met the girls? Okay. We'll talk about it later. We'll talk about it later. Anyway, trying to trick you up. No, no, I'm just curious. Um, the casino

  • 1:12:48

    is is that in terms of where it's located, a a better location in your

  • 1:12:53

    mind than Time Square was for the other casino cuz I just don't know the geography. Easier to get past.

  • 1:12:59

    Which one? It's probably easier to get past in Queens and Time Square. Like, yes. Yes. There's going to be less fight over there.

  • 1:13:04

    And it's And it's more convenient. It's just more convenient for people. And it's a it's a great location. I mean, a lot of people went there when it was the

  • 1:13:11

    racetrack, when it was the aqueduct back in the days. So, you know, yeah, that's been going for a while. The race track.

  • 1:13:16

    The race track has been going. Yeah. The story here is the clip running around of them shooting at Hoveve, which I

  • 1:13:23

    understand, but I don't understand. I understand because there's been the online theory that Hov has been stepping

  • 1:13:29

    on Nas projects for years. Right. Right. Theory. I But you talking about

  • 1:13:36

    We don't We don't know if Hov has been purposely doing that. That's why it's a theory. Coincidence. Yeah. Circumstantial.

  • 1:13:41

    All right. Here we go. I do I I don't understand though because Queens and Times Square are two totally different

  • 1:13:48

    things. It's a very big difference. Agree. Majority of folk ain't get that far to realize it was in Queens. They just saw

  • 1:13:53

    Nas got the casino and Hol didn't get the casino. That's why it's a big deal. But I don't think that that's that's the

  • 1:14:00

    internet. They made it seem like Nas got the casino in the spot that Ho was fighting, right? That's how the headlines were reading on the internet.

  • 1:14:06

    Well, why this is a big deal? I think that Hoveve wasn't the that that Times Square casino wasn't the only casino

  • 1:14:13

    that that was rejected that week in New York. There were three other casinos.

  • 1:14:18

    So, people thought that all right, you just can't get a casino nowhere in New York City. So, this Queens theory proves

  • 1:14:24

    that to be incorrect. I mean, not theory, but what happened proves that to be wrong. So, I guess that is a really big deal. Shout out to Queens. But like

  • 1:14:30

    Flip said, they already had all that [ __ ] Queens already had all that [ __ ] They did. Yeah. You know what I mean?

  • 1:14:36

    Put y jewelers roll here. Where y'all gamble at? They got a casino.

  • 1:14:42

    We got a casino. It's a casino. Columbus Boulevard. Do they have left, right, center? What he said was,

  • 1:15:11

    He slips it in the mask with that same smile, the little evil grin. The flip finish. He slips it in and mask it with

  • 1:15:17

    kindness. You can see his little horns going

  • 1:15:22

    right when I slip it in. Last week when we talked about saying pause, we never said pause again after that. Yeah.

  • 1:15:28

    I'm proud of y'all, man. I'm done. I'm done pausing. Gross, bro. I'm proud of y'all. I thought we were

  • 1:16:19

    Um, where were we? I don't remember. Uh, we talking about the casino. We talking about the casino. All right. Congrats, N. Congrats.

  • 1:16:26

    So, I see uh in the news, the CEO of uh Live Nation, Michael Rapino, uh

  • 1:16:33

    Let's do it. Let's do it. Let's do it. Made a very surprising, not surprising, annoying statement to me. Uh basically

  • 1:16:40

    saying that uh concerts are underpriced. His I I'm really Yeah, I'm going pull the exact quote,

  • 1:16:46

    but he basically said that uh concerts are not only underpriced, but have been for some time now. He said they're not

  • 1:16:52

    expensive enough is the exact quote. I believe I have the clip. If you give me a rich person came out and said

  • 1:16:57

    something wasn't expensive enough. Read the room, baby. I see where you got this [ __ ] He be body know he's he searching it in real

  • 1:17:04

    time like he got it saved but he it's like he got his points in his mind. We got to snuff you, [ __ ] Don't try to

  • 1:17:10

    body that looking at your phone. I don't like that [ __ ] No, I just I just got a clip. We got We got a clip. We got a clip.

  • 1:17:16

    Me, too. I got this quirky thing I do. I read before the show, figure out the stories and then talk and then then we talk

  • 1:17:23

    about them. I already know what we're talking about. Got you. Okay. [ __ ] you. For you, music is a better business though than selling tickets for sports.

  • 1:17:30

    I see 100%. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you know, I think I think music has been

  • 1:17:35

    under appreciated. You know, I always joke sports, it's like a badge of honor

  • 1:17:40

    to spend 70 grand for a Nick's Courtside. They beat me up if we charge 800 for

  • 1:17:46

    Beyonce, right? And you know, so it's a real we're it's a very under we have a lot of runway left, right? So when you

  • 1:17:52

    read about the ticket prices going up, it's still average concert price is $72

  • 1:17:58

    a Laker game for that and there's 80 of them or whatever the hell. So the um the concert is under underpriced has been

  • 1:18:04

    for a long time. What? All right, there you have it. There you have it. Go seat for $72.

  • 1:18:11

    Well, he wasn't saying front row. He was just saying the ticket. The average ticket. Some concerts you can't get a ticket for $72.

  • 1:18:17

    I think that the difference here is is what we are talking about, what most fans feel is the ability to get tickets

  • 1:18:23

    is hard because of the bots and the resellers. The face value of the tickets really don't be that expensive, but

  • 1:18:29

    buying them is [ __ ] impossible because of the bots and the resellers. So, we have to pay two 3000 $400 $500

  • 1:18:35

    for sometimes mediocre seats. Yes. That that's a big part of it. first they're not over if the average person cannot

  • 1:18:42

    afford to pay more for concerts than they are right now. That's the first thing. And to your point, the bots make

  • 1:18:47

    that even more. So it becomes like an elitist thing. Going to a live concert is no longer like a every man, every

  • 1:18:52

    woman experience. You have to be special to go to some of these concerts. I mean, we all went to see Kendrick kind of

  • 1:18:58

    together. And I mean, we all had hookups and all that to get seats, but the people even sitting at the top, a lot of people told me that they had to use

  • 1:19:04

    second hand uh dealing and they were spending $100, $200, $300 to see Kendrick and say to see Beyonce to sit

  • 1:19:11

    in the nose bleeds. I mean, this to me it's so to my [ __ ]

  • 1:19:16

    I paid mine too. I mean, I did have a hookup, but I paid. Yeah, but and you you know we were all

  • 1:19:21

    sitting kind of in similar areas and I spent thousands to sit I and I wasn't I mean I was I had good seats but I wasn't

  • 1:19:27

    the best seats. You can't afford to do that. And I think the average person should be able to get good seats, especially if they wait in line or or

  • 1:19:32

    the first one on online at at midnight. And even then, like you said, the bots and all the secondhand dealers are snatching everything. Person ain't even

  • 1:19:39

    going to a show. [ __ ] up here. Like, it be for real. For real. Not fitting that into their budget, a show. It just

  • 1:19:45

    don't happen. Unless you have like some of the perks like sometimes credit cards come with a perk where you get early releases or

  • 1:19:51

    Yeah. certain apps or something like that. But to me again, the real issue is the resellers because the actual concert

  • 1:19:56

    tickets are to his point fairly reasonable. Obviously, if you want to sit front row, it's going to be

  • 1:20:02

    expensive as [ __ ] But why wouldn't it be, right? $72 average ticket is I'm not saying everyone could afford

  • 1:20:07

    that, obviously. But I think that's a lot of people, but he's saying everybody can't get access to that $72.

  • 1:20:13

    Call it underpriced. It's the word underpric is bothering me cuz I agree. 72 is fine if we if we

  • 1:20:18

    could get people access to the 72, but what is he talking about 140? You talking about doubling it, trip. I mean,

  • 1:20:24

    he's trying to compare it to basketball season. That's where he lost me at. Why? Talking about because it's a badge of

  • 1:20:30

    honor to pay 70 grand for the Knicks ticket. So, basically, you should be okay with you're like okay with paying a

  • 1:20:35

    high price for a concert ticket. And I I I just disagree with you. It's a badge of honor. People in that lane to have courtside like that. Y'all

  • 1:20:43

    saying so much. I I can't figure out where everyone stands. Hold on. Let me just let me just I think tickets are in fact underpriced

  • 1:20:51

    if we're talking about actual just face value. Okay. I don't think so. I think they're rightly priced.

  • 1:20:56

    Well, we knew you was going to say that. Yeah. I think they could be [ __ ] cheaper. And my asterisk is large. Like that's a

  • 1:21:03

    very big ass. That's the issue. I do. I do. My grandma went to see Michael Jackson for $8.

  • 1:21:09

    Yeah, but a s loaf of bread was how much then? Maybe a dollar.

  • 1:21:14

    I don't know. I agree with him, but I mean I've been saying this for years. I don't think that they're under You think they're underpriced dramatically?

  • 1:21:19

    Yes. You said that last album. I remember. Do you think that Do you think that you being an artist and and the fact that a lot of y'all make your money on the road

  • 1:21:25

    has anything to do with that? Yes. Well, no. Because I would advance his idea. I think that everything in music

  • 1:21:32

    is underpriced. I've been saying that music period undervalued should should be sold at a premium

  • 1:21:39

    and it's not. Yeah. They buried the value of music with the streaming. streaming. So, I feel the same way about the the

  • 1:21:45

    live concert. Any anything music related is is them stepping on our our drugs.

  • 1:21:52

    I definitely agree with that's that's why I'm not mad at his basketball analogy because

  • 1:21:59

    yeah, it's the same exact venue. It's the Barclays. It's the Garden. for a

  • 1:22:06

    premium act to hit one of these places, there shouldn't be that much space

  • 1:22:11

    between the basketball number and the artist number. Oh, I disagree with that. I don't think that concert tickets should be $70,000

  • 1:22:17

    or whatever. That's crazy. I don't think that that's that crazy. But if if there's somebody somewhere

  • 1:22:23

    willing to pay $70,000 to sit front row, I think that option should be available.

  • 1:22:28

    When it's Super Bowl time, they card out some section that the Star Tenders could have carted out there and to sit there

  • 1:22:35

    just for this game, they charge whatever the [ __ ] they want to charge. Why can't we do it in music? Why? Every time we

  • 1:22:41

    talk about it in music, it's to be frowned upon. My worry is that if you do that, I don't want to be on stage with the

  • 1:22:46

    band. I'm sitting with the [ __ ] with the sacks. Now, you should also suddenly grant I'm rapping. What the [ __ ] Give me the mic. Let me

  • 1:22:52

    get this verse. Yeah, I'm featured. Yeah, I don't like that because if you pay that if you if you kick that forward, then what's the

  • 1:22:58

    second row cost? What's the third row cost? And then by the time you get to the Neils bleeds, those people will never know what the

  • 1:23:03

    guy that paid $70,000 is being offered or his experience. Those people would

  • 1:23:08

    not know. Yeah. I'm just saying that the option should exist in music. Maybe not 70, maybe we

  • 1:23:14

    going crazy, but it should be higher than the I agree with him. when it's $1,000 and

  • 1:23:20

    $2,000. You see people having a an absolute heart attack. But that be the

  • 1:23:26

    why one that's not the whole venue, man. That $1,000 $2,000 ticket is for the

  • 1:23:32

    person that wants to pay and can pay the $1,000,000 ticket because everything that comes with that ticket,

  • 1:23:37

    that person should be back there somewhere. That's premium. That's for them. That we should change. He's not complaining. But what I'm

  • 1:23:42

    saying that, $2,000 ticket, the person that pays for that is not complaining about that. Right. I'm worried about the nose leads.

  • 1:23:50

    I'm talking about the regular person, not that's looking for the premium experience. I just want to go to the show.

  • 1:23:55

    I'm not talking about who's complaining and who's not. I'm only talking about what that gentleman said. And by what he's saying, them thousand [ __ ] y'all

  • 1:24:01

    would have to move now, too. Sorry. Yeah. Sorry. I just don't care about them. I care about the average ticket go

  • 1:24:07

    that stadium. When you go to a stadium and how many people at that scissor show the scissor Kendrick show 25,000, more than that, I forget. Must been about

  • 1:24:15

    Let's say 40,000. Okay, let's say 50,000. 45,000 of the 50,000 are not sitting in the elite seats.

  • 1:24:21

    Those are the people I'm worried about. Those are the people who work every day that are saving up to go to two shows a year. And I think if we double the price

  • 1:24:27

    of the ticket, it [ __ ] them and go to one show a year, maybe. You know what I'm saying? And and

  • 1:24:33

    so that's the that's what I worry about. That's the only person I agree with you. Front row charge through the roof. I if you if you couldn't trouble with our

  • 1:24:38

    seats, the seats we sit in, that's fine. I I would love it. But I mean, I would that's just the price of the game. But

  • 1:24:44

    it's for the average person who only gets to go to one show. That's what I'm worried about. Imagine if it was both the best of both

  • 1:24:49

    worlds where it was that premium seat where you can pay for that experience but always the nose bleeds were

  • 1:24:54

    affordable. Affordable like I could live with they could check the live. You also can't watch the show. You got to watch on the big screen cuz you can't

  • 1:25:00

    see the [ __ ] on stage at all. But still you're in the building. They do they have Wi-Fi? Cuz that's I don't go to a show if I

  • 1:25:06

    overflow room like in church when you Oh [ __ ] I don't want to go sit close. I don't want to go to a show if I can't see this

  • 1:25:12

    [ __ ] sweating. I just don't. And I was the type of person if I had bad tickets, I'm just gonna walk down there and keep acting like I'm in I didn't know I was

  • 1:25:18

    in the wrong seat when [ __ ] say, "Can you move?" You know what I mean? I'mma just play that game. If they don't got security, man in the stands,

  • 1:25:25

    we on that. You know what? Let me tell you what you do. When you in the venue, and he really know cuz he a show.

  • 1:25:30

    Oh, for sure. You just open one of your little apps. You see what tickets is still available

  • 1:25:36

    that wasn't sold. Your seats now. That's Now you're not in nobody's seat.

  • 1:25:42

    That's a great joint. Nice. You always find a way to get I used to is a crackhead. You always freeze.

  • 1:25:49

    That [ __ ] freeze. You always find a chicken in the system. I'm not y'all. I'm still from the other

  • 1:25:55

    side. The other side. What is the other side? The other the side that y'all not on. I'm still over

  • 1:26:00

    there. But how if you still say he's still hood, he's still But I ain't let go of all my ways, man.

  • 1:26:06

    I'm I'm getting there. Even with some success and even with more more money in your pocket. I don't do that [ __ ] now. I'm just

  • 1:26:12

    telling you near no hood. We ain't got to come on. That's a fact. You live in a beautiful beautiful It's

  • 1:26:18

    [ __ ] What are you talking You got in your lobby, [ __ ] No lobby. Um

  • 1:26:24

    Oh, see look. Well, anyway. Yeah. I think that the artist should be able to charge what they want for the ticket. And if the fans don't show up, then that's on them.

  • 1:26:30

    Agree. You know what I'm saying? Like, agree. My biggest problem still is always going to be the bots. I have a question. Just be able to get the [ __ ] tickets

  • 1:26:36

    is impossible. But why? when it's probably the big boys that own the secondary markets that are

  • 1:26:41

    using the B. No, they do. Yeah. It's like that's why Rico, but my problem with that is that the

  • 1:26:47

    artists aren't getting that that chunk. That that I don't like. I I don't like

  • 1:26:52

    the idea though the artists can charge what they want. I mean, that works for some artists. I guess I'm saying if you're Beyonce

  • 1:26:58

    Yeah. or you're Kendrick where she could charge three times as much and fill the stadium. That just means that so many of the fans

  • 1:27:04

    that love you can't get access to it anymore. I'm not saying don't don't get your get what you deserve. I'm just

  • 1:27:10

    saying there has to be a line somewhere cuz some of these artists literally could charge anything and and and still fill the stadium. And I just don't want

  • 1:27:15

    to see that again for the person who saves up to go to the show. I see how much joy people get when they get wear their Beyonce outfits and they they do

  • 1:27:21

    all that [ __ ] This is how our [ __ ] big stars end up [ __ ] having to perform at Derwin's

  • 1:27:26

    bar mitzvah. That just how they end up taking these other gigs where Rihanna got to have all the equipment flown in

  • 1:27:33

    to Africa to perform at this nigga's 18th birthday party or some [ __ ] We be like, "How the hell's Rihanna doing out

  • 1:27:40

    there?" when he's think about, "Oh, we paid he paid Rihanna 6 million

  • 1:27:46

    for an hour." Y like those opportunities exist for the people that they exist for is all is all

  • 1:27:52

    I'm saying. Can they get rid of the bots? Is it just a like why can't it just they don't want to get rid of the box

  • 1:27:58

    because they own the box. Yeah, they making too much money. They making too much money. And again, like you said, artists charge what they want. Not to go

  • 1:28:04

    in circles. Artist charge what they want. Now I got to break the artist off of this. But if we buy them all up and

  • 1:28:09

    then resell them at 17 times or whatever times the price, we can keep the money. We keep the money.

  • 1:28:15

    Yeah, I can certainly hypothetically see a world in which they're doing exactly what Joe is talking about and exactly what he's talking about anyway.

  • 1:28:21

    Yeah, maybe. You know what I'm saying? Speaking speaking of artists making money. I know way Ola. I know at some of them

  • 1:28:27

    shows I go to I mean we going to tell the truth, right? Yeah. Just today. Just today. You tell the truth.

  • 1:28:32

    Depends. Tell my [ __ ] tell the money. Juicy, right, Juicy? Cuz if if I'm going to be the only one

  • 1:28:37

    telling the truth, uh then I won't do it. No, let's tell the truth. I never want to be the only one tell the truth. And some of these shows that I go to,

  • 1:28:45

    the people y'all are talking about are like near me.

  • 1:28:51

    Oh, what? Why are they near? Some of these stink [ __ ] You done paid You done paid a certain

  • 1:28:58

    amount for your ticket. You think they ushering you to some ill [ __ ] Here goes

  • 1:29:03

    some stink [ __ ] in a tank top wearing some beads and a Chris Brown

  • 1:29:09

    tank top all dancing near you. He got his five stink home girl. They talking about pardon me. No, no, no. How did you

  • 1:29:16

    get here? Talking about talk about feeling like Deborah Cox. I shouldn't be.

  • 1:29:22

    Hell, you shouldn't be nowhere close. Right by me. Soon as my girl get up,

  • 1:29:27

    here come one of your stink assy friends taking her seat. Now I got to talk to her. Move this [ __ ]

  • 1:29:34

    No, but it's cool. We supposed to just be fly with all concert goers. Yeah, I know.

  • 1:29:40

    Just get security next time, Joe. Stink man might got money, too. Get security. I know. Stink man got a bag. Speak speaking of

  • 1:29:46

    artists, I have been shocked to hear that David, who has been

  • 1:29:53

    allegedly accused of a lot of awful things, his record sales are going through the roof right now. People are

  • 1:29:58

    buying his music like crazy. Have y'all noticed this? Have you seen the numbers? I've seen the I've seen the numbers. I've seen the memes.

  • 1:30:06

    Like that? Oh, it went crazy. It's crazy. I think it's in support of him cuz they saying he's not guilty.

  • 1:30:12

    [ __ ] That [ __ ] Hey, and I heard it online. Yo, it's somebody else named David that could

  • 1:30:19

    sing that Tesla. It is the whole internet believing his innocence. Daddy,

  • 1:30:25

    nah, there's a story going around that's trying to pin this on a different David that sings. Yeah, they trying to say he's

  • 1:30:31

    a non famous. Yeah. Hey, buddy. I am so surprised that they have not picked you up yet.

  • 1:30:37

    I can't believe it. I'm super shocked. I can't make sense of it. He He's so guilty they ain't got to pick him up. They're watching him to see

  • 1:30:50

    for real when we come. Right. But they they watching him

  • 1:30:57

    though. They try to see where he's going to see if they can pick up some more clues and get some more evidence to see if or if he goes near any other bodies. You

  • 1:31:02

    know what I mean? Like when when you're when you're that like hot and dangerous uh and guilty apparently allegedly. I

  • 1:31:09

    don't know if he's guilty or not, but he sure looks guilty. He looks really guilty. He broke the lease to his 20k a month

  • 1:31:16

    home like with after the feds. Like he just he's trying to get away.

  • 1:31:22

    He's never seen a crew crime drama before and people are running out to listen to the music cuz it's a true crime. Yes,

  • 1:31:27

    it's a true crime obsession. I can see why because people were saying he referenced certain things in the song and the curiosity and people. Now I got

  • 1:31:33

    to go hear it. I am hoping that that's the reason. I'm hoping it's not that they're supporting him. I'm hoping is that they want to listen to Romantic Homicide, for

  • 1:31:38

    example, which is a terrible song to have when you kill your lover. Yeah. That ain't the only one.

  • 1:31:44

    It's a couple. It's a few of them to where and he's got interviews where he's talking about

  • 1:31:49

    having uh multiple personalities. One of them is evil. And it's a fantasy of his

  • 1:31:55

    for the evil person to be committing murders and leaving clues and the sane

  • 1:32:00

    version of him trying to solve the mur like he's afraid. The breadcrumbs left in songs and

  • 1:32:06

    interviews have people probably running this up. Right. Is the song any good? Is the music any good?

  • 1:32:12

    He makes good music. Oh, okay. You mind? I like his music. Okay. Oh, so you're one of the streams. I haven't listened to one note. I

  • 1:34:34

    did y'all hear this [ __ ] Mark laughed his way into a beverage Mark asked Juicy for ginger ale

  • 1:34:40

    Juicy looked at a [ __ ] like what you just drink somebody ginger ale. She thought it was mine. Mark left his

  • 1:34:47

    way to the place. They found tickets on David's car, like more tickets, and they was trying to figure out, they basically said that the tickets that they found,

  • 1:34:53

    they think that the body was already in the car when they found the tickets. And first, first and foremost, rest in peace to her and love to her family.

  • 1:35:02

    But um I read today that they found tickets on the car and people was trying to put it together because apparently they think the tickets got left on the

  • 1:35:08

    car after the body was there. But then they start talking about why they didn't smell it. But it was that early that they couldn't smell it. But that's what

  • 1:35:13

    I read today. It was more tickets cuz it was just sitting there. So you know it probably got ticketed a lot cuz then it was impounded. So I'm guessing when they

  • 1:35:19

    took it to the impound she was already in there but it was already so people like yo why didn't you? But how would

  • 1:35:25

    you know if you can't smell it? This is going to make at some point the story when this story unfolds. I don't

  • 1:35:30

    even think the story of his guilt or innocence is going to be interesting. It's going to be the backstory how, you know, all those other things. There's so

  • 1:35:35

    many elements we don't know yet that I think are going to be scary. But again, oh my gosh, I keep saying, you monetize the [ __ ] is sick

  • 1:35:41

    monetizing. They are exactly Bro, this is

  • 1:35:47

    a straight jacket he got on. Is that a straight jacket? Clearly could hear. Hold on real quick. Look, do I

  • 1:35:54

    my mind she died and I didn't even cry. Not a single tear. Kai killed you. So,

  • 1:35:59

    it's not like the thought of her is gone by itself was something that she did. It was something that I decided to do and I

  • 1:36:05

    killed her in the back of my mind. It's really more of a figurative I killed you. Especially in the back of my mind, I try to uh stress that in the back of

  • 1:36:11

    my mind. That's why I say it so loud. In the back of my mind, you mind I killed you. So, it's all in the mind because

  • 1:36:17

    that's the the most secure place you can be is in your mind. So, if you can expel that thought from your mind, then

  • 1:36:23

    everything else will just come together. If he really did this, he's a sick puppy boy.

  • 1:36:29

    And this is what I talk about a lot of times. Again, I'm not I'll just say this. Anybody who did this

  • 1:36:34

    has severe mental health issues. And I don't know if throwing him in a cage for the rest of his life is the answer to that either.

  • 1:36:39

    Oh, no. That's the answer. This the only answer we have. Yeah. Don't start your No, no, no, no. This what I'm saying.

  • 1:36:44

    I'm saying that he needs to be clearly confined. He needs secure confinement. I'm just saying he needs some mental health support, too. I'm I'm saying that

  • 1:36:51

    there's no way that he This isn't a sane mind is all I'm saying. like he he needs

  • 1:36:56

    to be maybe in a mental institution for the rest of his life or if he is in fact guilty of this. Yeah. This all contingent on him being

  • 1:37:01

    guilty. If he's not guilty, free him. I'm curious at I'm curious at how much stuff his mother

  • 1:37:06

    and them ignore. You know what I mean? Cuz a lot of times people be saying, you know, even with him writing stuff that's so dark. I'm just curious if somebody

  • 1:37:12

    ever said, "Well, are you okay?" Like, you know, cuz if you can go that far. And that's the whole thing. The way he talking in his last interview, he

  • 1:37:18

    talking about keeping it in his mind, but you couldn't keep it in your mind. And he manifested some of that [ __ ] doing it in real life. I know his people

  • 1:37:23

    know. You know when your baby [ __ ] up. Do you believe Do you believe that to be true for everyone that commits murder? Not everyone commits murder, but them

  • 1:37:29

    freaky people like that where you're hearing the way he's talking, the way he's moving move it feels psychopathic or maybe sociopathic.

  • 1:37:36

    I don't or multiple personalities. Multiple personalities. Also, there just seems to be a lot of things going on. This is not like I I just shot you on

  • 1:37:42

    the street over over beef. He should have had my mom, [ __ ] I ripped a picture and they sent me to speak to

  • 1:37:47

    somebody, [ __ ] Like, oh, you ripping pictures in the house? You What were they pictures of?

  • 1:37:52

    Like his family? I don't know. I was ri I ripped the picture and my mother had to go talk to somebody as a kid. That's a sign. That's a sign.

  • 1:37:58

    And your mom was in the picture. That's like the most important part. Family, right? My mother, my brother. I don't know. At the time you leave out

  • 1:38:04

    some key details. He's purposely leaving out that he ripped his brother out and then he took

  • 1:38:09

    a piece of picture of his brother and stabbed it with no he some [ __ ] out. I remember having to go talk to somebody

  • 1:38:14

    about they became concerned. It's like like all right, come on. How long did you see talk to somebody? I don't know. It was a like all the

  • 1:38:22

    childhood or it was just No, no, no, no. Still and they never caught it. That's why I'm wondering like they never

  • 1:38:28

    caught what? Whatever is wrong. Whatever the problem was. No, the problem is gone. Oh, [ __ ] Thank God.

  • 1:38:33

    Yeah. Yeah. Thank God. Yes. What's up? I can't believe that they got this [ __ ] roaming free. They done picked me up for

  • 1:38:40

    way less. They done took me off the street when I told him the child support was sent.

  • 1:38:45

    It has to be that. I guarantee if he's taking a [ __ ] right now, they they can hear it. that he he couldn't go nowhere

  • 1:38:50

    cuz they were he had a he was on an international tour which they canled. Um well no they canceled the national tour. The international tour is still

  • 1:38:56

    set. I'm sure they're watching his passport. I'm sure they follow him everywhere. I guarantee you he can't go anywhere without surveillance.

  • 1:39:01

    When he come out his front door it's a black car sitting there every day for sure. They just want I'm telling you they just trying to collect more evidence to build a case. That's all it

  • 1:39:08

    is. That's all it is. Speaking about rest in peace. I worked on that bit that you stepped on. Oh I apologize.

  • 1:39:14

    That's fine. I worked on it for three days. Uh I want to hear the bit. [ __ ] that. I hate Stephan. That's the moment the

  • 1:39:20

    Mona is gone. What' you say? No, she it was me that was talking. Oh, you look like Mona.

  • 1:39:26

    Everybody Everybody look like Mona. All you see is Mona.

  • 1:39:32

    Speaking of rest in peace, I just want to say rest in peace to 13-year-old that was shot in Queens, Camry Heights. Uh

  • 1:39:37

    Sanjay Samuel. You know what I'm saying? He lost his life. They say it's gang vi gang violence. I don't know what it is,

  • 1:39:42

    but I drove past there the other day and I just want to say rest in peace and condolences to his family. You don't know what it is.

  • 1:39:49

    I don't know. I'm not I'm not into gangs, but I'm just saying that's what they're saying. They're saying it's gang violence. 400 episodes later now you're not in the

  • 1:39:55

    game. Why you doing that, man? Why I'm saying rest in peace to a kid that lost his life. I know. But and that is horrible. But as

  • 1:40:02

    soon as they flashed his face on the news, they flashed homeboy to did it. A little 14y old kid with with a gun in

  • 1:40:08

    his hand. In his hand. Yes. So, I mean, and he shot him in the head. This kid,

  • 1:40:13

    they got it on camera. Yes, they do. Damn. They do got it on camera. Yes. So,

  • 1:40:19

    little kid. It's just when you hear the parents talk about the children, it it it it weighs different. That's all.

  • 1:40:24

    For sure. When I hear the mother talking about him, you know, it weighs different. I don't know anybody that know them.

  • 1:40:31

    Go ahead. Go ahead. This woman rest in peace. I know if you about to hit out standing, that's why I didn't I'm queuing it up. I'm

  • 1:40:37

    queuing it up. Go ahead. There's Um, since we're talking about rest in peace, of course, it's an a really

  • 1:40:43

    important moment to to say uh rest in peace to Assada Shakur, one of the giants

  • 1:40:49

    uh of the freedom struggle, the black freedom struggle here in United States. She passed away uh of Thursday of this

  • 1:40:54

    week uh in Cuba. For those that don't know, Assad Shakur uh was a former Black Panther, former member of the Black

  • 1:41:00

    Liberation Army who was one of many people due to the COINTEL program, the

  • 1:41:05

    Co-Iintel Pro, government counter intelligence program, was surveiled, was railroaded, uh she was accused of a lot

  • 1:41:12

    of things, murder, uh bank robbery, kidnapping, etc. She beat three, she was acquitted three times. Three cases got

  • 1:41:18

    dropped, but she was also tried and convicted in absentia for the murder of

  • 1:41:24

    a um of a New Jersey state trooper. The medical evidence proved that she did not do it. She actually was paralyzed in the

  • 1:41:30

    arm that they said that she shot. Anyway, she was uh arrested. She was convicted. She was placed in a uh or she

  • 1:41:36

    was placed in a prison. She was the first woman to be placed in a men's prison in US history. She was in middle sex prison. She was also in Clinton

  • 1:41:42

    Correctional. And while there uh she uh was tortured in so many ways. Assad's a

  • 1:41:49

    hero of mine. She's actually one of the people tattooed on me. And and um Assada stands as a as a figure of of

  • 1:41:55

    power and possibility for so many of us. Um Assada in 1984 was liberated by the

  • 1:42:01

    Black Liberation Army. Uh now that she's passed, I feel a little bit more comfortable talking about what happened, but it's not my place to tell the whole

  • 1:42:07

    story. But people broke in um freed her including Seiku Odinga who

  • 1:42:13

    passed away earlier this year. My brother, rest in peace to him. They freed her out of the prison and she

  • 1:42:18

    escaped to Cuba where she received diplomatic immunity and has stayed in Cuba for the last four decades. Uh shout out to the Cuban

  • 1:42:25

    government for protecting her and keeping her safe even though New Jersey attempted to bring her back many, many times starting with Tom Ridge forward.

  • 1:42:32

    They've had her on the FBI uh terrorist list for decades now. She's the first woman to be on there,

  • 1:42:37

    but she stayed free. She's been a giant in hip-hop. If you if some of y'all listen to Rebel Without a Pause, when you hear Chuck D say that he

  • 1:42:45

    supports Chesmmart, he's talking about Joanne Chesamart, who is Assada Shakur. When you hear a song for Assada on um

  • 1:42:51

    like Water for Chocolate, like Water for Chocolate, they're talking about Assada Shakur. All the Black August events that we saw when

  • 1:42:57

    Black August hip hop went to Cuba that first time, that major trip, they visited Assatada Shakur. Assad Shakur

  • 1:43:02

    was a friend of a faint Shakur. Uh, Tupac, she's named after them, right? Yeah. Well, sort of. And and and and Tupac, they're all part of the there's

  • 1:43:08

    that's that's a whole interesting conversation, too. We could talk about maybe later, but um but Tupac uh also

  • 1:43:14

    referred to her as Auntie Assada. Yeah. Um Assatada was a legend to and and a and a mentor and a resource to so many

  • 1:43:19

    of us, although she remained hidden in Cuba, especially in the later years. Um she just stands tall and strong, and I'm

  • 1:43:25

    grateful that she was able to live free. Yes. And die free. So, we say always hands off a side of

  • 1:43:31

    always free all political prisoners. always love to assault us. So we want to send rest in peace as she returns to the ancestors. Rest in

  • 1:43:37

    peace. Yeah, she she's inspiring. Um cuz she has the quote where she says like we

  • 1:43:43

    basically got to stick together. All we have to lose is our chains. Like Yeah. Um it is our duty to fight for our freedom.

  • 1:43:48

    It is our duty to win. We must love and support each other. We have nothing to

  • 1:43:54

    lose but our chains. But our chains body that she really is like and then the thing

  • 1:44:00

    about because this year they started putting in more effort to trying to go get her this year. They were trying to extradite her again.

  • 1:44:05

    So the thought that she just passed away peacefully is just it just feels better. You know what I mean? There's nothing better than than

  • 1:44:11

    allowing her to die for seeing her that she died. I wish she didn't die at 78. I wish she died at 108. But I'm grateful to see that Assada is

  • 1:44:18

    there. And also she wrote one of the most important books I think that anybody should read when we do our book club. One of the books we should read is

  • 1:44:24

    Asada. For me, there's the autobiography of Malcolm X and there's a side. Those are the two books that changed my life. And I think anybody out there that is

  • 1:44:30

    reading and trying to learn and understand anything about this world should read Assa's autobiography. Thank

  • 1:44:35

    you. That was that was powerful. That was great. Yeah.

  • 1:44:41

    You good? That was powerful. Good at that. Now, if you diss anybody when they die, [ __ ]

  • 1:44:46

    I'm going to be mad cuz you see how powerful that is. Woo!

  • 1:44:51

    [ __ ] had tears in his eyes. Yeah, [ __ ] Jimmy Fallon [ __ ] him up.

  • 1:48:57

    of thumb is anytime Leonardo DiCaprio is in a three-hour movie is probably going to be really good. And it was really good.

  • 1:49:04

    I'd like for any of y'all to go see it. I'm going to see it Monday because I do have conspiracy theories

  • 1:49:10

    that pertain to Leonardo DiCaprio movies. Like I feel like they were trying to

  • 1:49:16

    tell us something in this movie. All right. Well, save it cuz I'm going to go see it Monday. Yeah, I'll go see

  • 1:49:21

    something in this movie. Ask me twice. 3 hours though. It's 2:45.

  • 1:49:26

    245. I can do I want to go see it. Killers of the I heard Killers of the Flower Moon was three and

  • 1:49:32

    change. Amazing. Yeah, that was a great movie. That was amazing. Oppenheimer was long as well and it was

  • 1:49:37

    it was Yeah, I was talking about strictly uh Leo movies, but No, it wasn't. I heard that the chemistry between Tiana

  • 1:49:42

    Taylor, like the sexual chemistry was like good. Like all those scenes were good. Oh, well, when they started kissing and [ __ ] that's not the first thing that

  • 1:49:48

    came to my mind. Like their sexual chemistry. But Tiana was great. Tiana was great.

  • 1:49:54

    Actually, everybody in that movie was great. It was all allstar cast. Allstar cast. So, check it out if you get a

  • 1:50:00

    minute. I started uh Black Rabbit. I only did one episode, but I'm in. Off one.

  • 1:50:05

    Off one. I'm in. I'm in. Seems like a really good show. All right. Have you finished yet? You seem like you probably been binging.

  • 1:50:11

    I'm not finished, but but once you once you get caught up a little bit, you start to get annoyed at the decision-m

  • 1:50:16

    in that show. I thought that was kind of the point. It must be the point. It would have to be the point. They both seem like they don't make the

  • 1:50:22

    greatest decisions off one episode. Yeah, but they get really frustrating as it goes on. I was frustrated with the [ __ ]

  • 1:50:28

    robbery [ __ ] at the beginning. Yeah. So, I can see how that would be the case. Yeah. And I think that might be the point. But

  • 1:50:33

    maybe I'm wrong. I'm going to keep watching. But is it is a good show. Yeah. And Task is going crazy. Yes. Task is super duper fire.

  • 1:50:40

    Um Okay. Comedy in Saudi Arabia. I'm going to save it for the Patreon now. Okay. It It flows better now. It I Yeah.

  • 1:50:48

    Got it. Got it. Got it. Uh let's see. Let's see what else is important. Unimportant. Uh Sylvia Ran steps down.

  • 1:50:56

    Oh, wow. That's major steps down. That was a big thing that I forgot to report on last

  • 1:51:02

    time we were here. Let me just find the details really quickly. I don't remember where her last position

  • 1:51:08

    was. She was at Sony, I want to say. Okay,

  • 1:51:14

    let's see. Here we go. Trailblazing music executive Sylvia Ran, who became

  • 1:51:20

    both the first woman and first black person to lead a major record company, is stepping down from her post as

  • 1:51:25

    chairman and CEO of Epic Records. Oh, wow. Epic. uh trailblazing music executive

  • 1:51:31

    Sylvia Ran who became both Yeah. As I step away from this role that has defined so much of my journey, I'm

  • 1:51:36

    filled with pride in the extraordinary uh tapestry we've created together. Ran

  • 1:51:42

    wrote in a memo to her staff. Thank you for trusting me with your brilliance. Thank you for making every day feel like

  • 1:51:48

    the first time music was invented. Thanks to Rob Stringer for his trust and camaraderie. Uh let's see. Sony Music

  • 1:51:54

    Entertainment CEO Stringer said, "Today, I want to take a moment to reflect on the extraordinary career of Sylvia Ran.

  • 1:51:59

    In an industry defined by his constant evolution, Sylvia has adapted and embraced change time and time again. Her

  • 1:52:05

    journey is more than just a list of accomplishments. She is a trailblazing executive with a distinguished

  • 1:52:10

    background and unwavering commitment to supporting artists." Absolutely. Uh

  • 1:52:16

    this is a big deal because all of the big dogs seem to be stepping aside or

  • 1:52:21

    stepping down or uh this is from Julie over there at the Atlantic now. Sylvia

  • 1:52:27

    who if you're around my age, all of the '9s and 2000s acts, you're familiar with

  • 1:52:33

    Sylvia. It's a big deal. It's a huge deal. Is is there is there a very clear new

  • 1:52:38

    cuz she's in her 70s. I think she's 72, 73. Is there a new generation of like black execs that are very clearly like

  • 1:52:44

    taking over or is the is the landscape different now? I wouldn't know. I'm far removed. I'm far removed. That's a great question

  • 1:52:50

    though. I'd love to know who they're putting in this leadership position that hasn't

  • 1:52:56

    been announced yet. I don't think it's a new black.

  • 1:53:01

    I think it's a new wave of young exist, but not sure. Not African-American. Yeah, I don't think so. I don't I mean the the music is kind of

  • 1:53:07

    reflecting that. Yeah. Ran first partnered with Epic in 2012 on her imprint Vested in Culture. She was

  • 1:53:14

    named president of the label in 2014 and in the wake of LA Reed's exit became chairman CEO in 2019.

  • 1:53:22

    Uh this is the note she wrote. Yeah, she just thanked everybody. thanked everybody. She was one of the

  • 1:53:28

    greats. Yeah. Yeah. One of the greats of our generation. Yeah. Let me hit the round of applause for Sylvia Ran.

  • 1:53:34

    Interested to see what what she does next.

  • 1:53:40

    When the big dogs step away, I never really have them just going to ride off into retirement somewhere to never be

  • 1:53:46

    seen or heard from again. Although in the 70s maybe, but who knows? Who knows? Not Stevie Wonder.

  • 1:53:54

    [ __ ] Um, all right. Let's see what else is important. What else is important? Unimportant. Mona, you want to talk

  • 1:54:00

    about friendships? Yeah. I wanted to talk about mixing friends. I wanted to talk about when do you make the decision to bring your one friend

  • 1:54:07

    group around the other friend group or do you ever do that? Like do you ever mix friends?

  • 1:54:12

    Super depends on the friends. There's some friends that you not really for everybody.

  • 1:54:18

    Okay. And there's some friends where it's like oh no y'all will get along. Yeah. Y'all will get along.

  • 1:54:24

    So do you you assess it and see who would like Absolutely. Absolutely. You kind of have to. Yeah. So, do some friends just not get

  • 1:54:30

    the invite when you have like a kickback or a party or or reception or whatever? Uh, no. No. Major events I think

  • 1:54:38

    everyone is. It's fine. I'm talking about in a more intimate setting. Got you. Like going to a club together, going to

  • 1:54:44

    a bar together, going to eat together, something like that. But you know the friends that you can't bring to them places anyway. You know what I'm saying?

  • 1:54:49

    Yeah. Yeah. And it's like I'm not going to bring you around my cool friends that I might could take to

  • 1:54:54

    these places. When I say cool, you cool. You know how to act if we go somewhere. You know what I'm saying? This [ __ ] right

    one of my closest homies, but you just don't know how to act in certain situations. I can't take you there.

  • 1:55:12

    What if you introduce your friend to the other friend, then they start hanging out without you? How do you take that?

  • 1:55:17

    I worry about that less. I That's happened to me before, but I I wasn't the left out one. So, I was going say I think it happens with

  • 1:55:24

    women more. Yeah, it definitely happens with us for sure. Just they care more. Yeah. my best I have my best friend and my best friend since I was like 18 and

  • 1:55:30

    now we look back on it but she would never roll up we'd be smoking weed she would never roll up we go to the gas station she never added gas that was our

  • 1:55:42

    first connection like she's cheap stingy but we ended up really like getting close and she just she just didn't come along you know what

  • 1:55:49

    I mean so I've had it happen but it caused like drama but we girls so I think it's a girl thing

  • 1:55:55

  • 1:56:56

    there a hydrant outside? Say it again. I'm sorry. Huh? Is there a hydrant outside to do what? To wash me down. No. No. That's racist. That

  • 1:57:09

    Oh, I'm a dog. It's only a little less racist. That's racist.

  • 1:57:14

    I got a question, Flip. You referred to like yourself in the past almost like you made this big change. Like what did

  • 1:57:19

    you like what what happened? That's a great question. That's a good question.

  • 1:57:24

    I did make a big change. The world changed for you. Yeah. I mean, well, and I talked about

  • 1:57:30

    this in my anger management session yesterday about how being up here. Huh?

  • 1:57:35

    Say what? It's a new video clip, right? It didn't come out yet. But I said being up here, watch your [ __ ] mouth, Mark.

  • 1:57:41

    You supposed to be supportive. He's I was supporting you. I was supporting your anger management and your content. I said I said being Shut the [ __ ] up, Mark. Absolutely.

  • 1:57:49

    Totally perfect. Yeah. I I said being up here and dealing with people that has patience and believe in teamwork make

  • 1:57:56

    you put a mirror in front of your face. So when I would explode up here and that crazy and stop them [ __ ] like all

  • 1:58:01

    right at some point at first it worked. At some point you're like all right let them finish and everybody would just look at you like oh you look dumb. You

  • 1:58:07

    had to put a mirror and realize that you have to change and advance your way of thinking and not be so smallminded. So

  • 1:58:13

    when I talk about me in the past, I'm really not on that and I I never been that privately, but I'm really not on

  • 1:58:19

    that hype stuff or the stuff you seen in the video. So you think you lash out for attention? No. No. I lash out for a reason, but I'm

  • 1:58:26

    saying that there's other ways to deal with the situation. That's true. Congratulations on your growth.

  • 1:58:33

    I'm happy for you. Does it feel more peaceful? Do you feel better? It's still It's still some [ __ ] between

    something. So it's a that's like a content thing. I was thinking like you really went went to see No, I really went to anger management, but I decided to film it.

  • 1:59:33

    Stop, stop. Why? Huh? Why? Why? What? I don't deserve to make what I'm making.

  • 1:59:40

    I think you deserve to make more than that. Okay. So, why did you ask that? Cuz I didn't I didn't know. I don't I don't understand the

  • 1:59:46

    correlation. It's not. Yo, tell me right now, [ __ ] Before I pull you outside, to have a meeting.

  • 2:03:55

    Anyway, any Mark, what you think of Jimmy Kimmel, man? I thought he did great.

  • 2:04:00

    I thought it was a great episode. I I watched his uh his heartfelt apology. Some people uh were only watched the

  • 2:04:08

    apology, didn't watch the whole episode. I just want to see the monologue, see how he carried it. But I was glad to see the show do so well cuz I think it was a

  • 2:04:14

    good um like uh act of resilience, you know what I mean? For everybody to say, "Look,

  • 2:04:19

    you're about to lose a bunch of money because of this free speech violation. we're going to come back and stand for Jimmy Kim. Whether we like the show, don't like the show, whether we be fans

  • 2:04:25

    or not, we're gonna watch this thing. I thought that that part was dope. Um, his actual words, um, I thought he was more

  • 2:04:31

    generous than he needed to be. Yeah. Um, I I got the point he was trying to say, which was that I don't I wasn't

  • 2:04:36

    trying to attack this this family. I wasn't trying to be, uh, harmful to his his kids and his wife. I was making a

  • 2:04:42

    political statement about this thing and not this other thing. I got friends on both sides of the aisle. That's where it kind of went off the rails a little bit for me.

  • 2:04:48

    I didn't like that part. I wish he had just kept it on on the other on the other part. Um, but overall I thought it

  • 2:04:53

    it was a good courageous comeback and if nothing else uh he was he was sincere. I I I didn't he almost cried. He almost

  • 2:05:00

    cried. He he choked up in tears and it didn't seem like like crocodile tears. It seemed very sincere. So I was I was glad to see it.

  • 2:05:05

    Yeah, for sure. This is the first episode I've watched of his in long maybe ever. Right. I was going to say I've seen some

  • 2:05:11

    clips but I don't really turn on TV anyway. I thought it was good. It was safe but it had a little bit of bite to it the

  • 2:05:16

    whole episode. Those little little jabs I thought were solid. So, congratulations. Uh,

  • 2:05:22

    should he have apologized? I think he had to I think he had to apologize to the

  • 2:05:28

    family of Charlie Kirk just in case something was taken out of context. I understand that part. I don't I I

  • 2:05:34

    don't think he apologized to like the president and [ __ ] like that. I I I don't think he should is a strong word. I don't think he should have.

  • 2:05:41

    I'll say this. He was very careful with his words. He said, "If you interpreted me this way, Yeah. I am sorry for that because that

  • 2:05:47

    wasn't my intention. But they also I I if you're going to apologize, I I thought that that was about as good as

  • 2:05:52

    you could do cuz he's basically like I didn't say this [ __ ] but if I communicated this poorly then I apologize for how I communicated it not

  • 2:05:58

    for the at that level you need some variation of that. Yeah, you got to do it.

  • 2:06:04

    But yeah, do I think he did something that warranted a real apology? Absolutely agree with that. I agree with

  • 2:06:10

    that. I understand you having to do it for the sake of you know this is corporate. This is bigger than just you saying something. This is corporate [ __ ]

  • 2:06:15

    we talking now. So you got to play the game. But I don't think he did anything that warranted an apology. And that's why I like the words that he

  • 2:06:21

    used. He didn't say I did. He didn't say that his sentiment or his beliefs were wrong, which is what some people do.

  • 2:06:26

    They cower and back up and say I can't believe I said that. That's not the true me. No, he's like I said this thing. If it came off like I was saying this other

  • 2:06:32

    thing, I wasn't. And I apologize for how I again how I communicated that. But and you're right that that's as good as

  • 2:06:38

    you're going to get at that level because you got to do something. You can't show up there and not say anything. Yeah. But it doesn't look like Nextstar

  • 2:06:43

    or Sinclair stations are budging. So that means it's still 30% of his market is gone.

  • 2:06:48

    They're going to be showing local news for the next year and a half or whenever his contract is up. And I don't know what this means for his contract.

  • 2:06:54

    But in a media landscape where they're already trying to get rid of late night shows. Coar's gone. Um I don't I mean

  • 2:07:00

    Fallon seems to be doing well. He may be the last man standing, but they don't really want to do this [ __ ] anymore. Networks, they they don't

  • 2:07:06

    want to invest in people anymore like that. That's interesting to me. It is. Yeah. I I I do see that there's a lot of

  • 2:07:13

    people that still watch late night television. So, are they going to move it off of TV and

  • 2:07:18

    just make it strictly a app and do at the same time? Like, as far as who do you know that watches late night TV?

  • 2:07:24

    Older people. And that's I think that's the issue is that the you know the the the coveted group on TV is still

  • 2:07:30

    25 to 54. And so, as the people who watch TV move further and further from that demo, they

  • 2:07:36

    don't care if our our mothers and fathers grandparents. Do you feel if they put a young popular person in the

  • 2:07:42

    in the late night position? Do you feel like the viewers would the viewers would tune in? Yes. No. I'm not sure. I think we watch I think

  • 2:07:48

    we watch it. I don't know if we watch it on on on linear I just don't know if linear TV will ever I think linear TV is is

  • 2:07:56

    I used to watch I used to watch late night a lot but then when the Trump first administration all of it just

  • 2:08:01

    became Trump jokes and I don't like Trump either but I was like fatigue. I was I was fatigued. I don't want to hear

  • 2:08:07

    this [ __ ] the right late night show on the right app or cable network. I could

  • 2:08:13

    see people tuning in for sure. Yeah. Linear television, maybe the boat has the boat has passed.

  • 2:08:18

    And that's all I'm talking about. You'll still still see Daily Shows. You'll still see all those things cuz the stakes are lower. You know, they don't I

  • 2:08:24

    mean, Jimmy Kim Jimmy Kimmel's contract was huge relative to what other people are making. and the return is getting

  • 2:08:30

    less and less as the advertisers move because again the demo that watches it doesn't doesn't matter as much to

  • 2:08:35

    advertisers anymore. You know, that's that's the that's the tough spot for him. So, we'll see what happens though. I also think all these shows, these late

  • 2:08:41

    night shows, they're very expensive, but I think they could be produced for much cheaper and released in a more profitable way via

  • 2:08:49

    YouTube or Patreon or wherever you choose to do it. That's right. That's right. But you do

  • 2:08:55

    that again, your older demo, they watch TV, right? They're the ones who look for this. You

  • 2:09:00

    get what I'm saying? So the old grandma ain't got YouTube like that to go. I think there will always be one at least on there or something there.

  • 2:09:06

    It's the thought that they're going to die off. So that's why they don't care about that demographic because they won't be here but for so long.

  • 2:09:12

    And they don't buy the products that the advertisers want to sell. Yeah. So that's the real issue. They don't care if they die tomorrow or next year is or

  • 2:09:19

    is more that 25 to 54 is the ripe audience to buy car insurance to buy you know these birth control to do whatever

  • 2:09:25

    the thing is they're selling that's that's who they want. That's why at least on the news side of things we don't even when we talk about ratings we

  • 2:09:31

    don't care what your mass number the mass number is ego to say 3 million people watched my show last night it don't mean [ __ ] If only 200,000 watched

  • 2:09:38

    it in the demo that's more important. I'd rather have somebody with half a million viewers and all in the demo than somebody with 10 million viewers

  • 2:09:44

    and none in and none in the demo. Okay. Yeah. It doesn't matter. That makes sense. Yeah. I'd love to do a late night TV show.

  • 2:09:51

    Trying to think of how much money I would need to do that weekly. This is very expensive. That's what you

  • 2:09:56

    told me. I don't think it has to be. It doesn't have to. It's typically a monologue and some

  • 2:10:02

    level of musical act, which sometimes has been historically, it's usually a band, but that first of all is not

  • 2:10:07

    necessarily terribly expensive. It also could be a DJ or a guy playing the piano or something like

  • 2:10:13

    I like the thought of back in the day when it was like new talent. So you might have a standup going for five

  • 2:10:18

    minutes like people broke standups on on those shows or um where it's almost like

  • 2:10:24

    not a talent competition but it's people that are that new that you kind of like judging them whether you like them or not. I like the idea.

  • 2:10:29

    Carson was big for that. Yeah. I just think it should always be an option for the people that don't party for something. You know what I

  • 2:10:36

    mean? Because so it's almost like you're joining in on that party. The person is dressed up. It looks the set looks like

  • 2:10:42

    nice, you know, because everybody else in the street, you home, but you still feel like, you know, you did something

  • 2:10:48

    I got entertained. Yeah. Yeah. The black QVC channel.

  • 2:10:54

    You remember the chat we had about late night television? Um, mommy,

  • 2:10:59

    you just was saying it was expensive and that it would cost a whole lot to do that. And I was telling you how like the

  • 2:11:04

    goal would be if it would be just like what you all were saying before where your new artist goes there with the

  • 2:11:10

    album or whatever. You know what I mean? Like you would build it up like that almost what those streamers are doing right now where those labels are sending

  • 2:11:17

    people. You know what I mean? Yeah. I think with the right team it could be done with the right people, the right people involved, the right

  • 2:11:22

    personalities. I think Jesse Collins can get that done for the cheap with somebody just in terms of producing like

  • 2:11:28

    if he wanted to wrap his head around that. Uh there's a few more people I have in mind that could do something

  • 2:11:34

    like that. Issa like there's people that could lend their brain to that and it would be a success. Um I think you about

  • 2:11:40

    it by the way. Thank you. Especially if you had helping with some of the political commentary jokes and

  • 2:11:45

    Oh, great. Now you got somebody. Just make me the dead person

  • 2:11:51

    correspondent or that. You probably can't tell. I keep trying to escape some of that radical [ __ ] that this guy's on. He keeps

  • 2:11:58

    bringing everybody it though. be on there with you like you know they got the little me and Mark would smoke that [ __ ]

  • 2:12:03

    the little small Latin guy we smoke Mark and Mona

  • 2:12:08

    team that's flip and straight you what's the guy the little Latin guy

  • 2:12:14

    that used to be on the show with the guy on uh GMO

  • 2:12:19

    GMO I can see Flip being Joe's GMO N I go on the other side I keep trying to escape him being Joe's

  • 2:12:25

    what you say me Me too, [ __ ] Me too, [ __ ]

  • 2:12:31

    No, you I told I I asked the end. Send it over. I'm done with you. Send what? Send what over. Send what?

  • 2:12:37

    Send it over, too. Yeah, send what over. Wait, I was about to Damn, I be thinking

  • 2:12:42

    of jokes and then I forget them cuz y'all so funny. We I'm friends with the other side, too.

  • 2:12:47

    Remember I told you that. What is the other side? Yeah, you'll see. I talk to you. Stop doing that. Actually, stop acting

  • 2:12:53

    like you kicking me off, man. They they act. Stop acting like you kicking me off. Are they coming looking for you? Come on, Queens. Flip, [ __ ]

  • 2:12:59

    I I I give her an adrenaline right now. Take some accountability and why they saying that too. They not saying it cuz of me. Take some

  • 2:13:06

    accountability. They mean Yeah. I bet. But yo, you knew you knew.

  • 2:13:12

    You know, we keeping this game together forever. But you knew world. You know what though? Do you feel good about yourself though to let your man

  • 2:13:19

    just go through something and to watch, you know, even though you said the [ __ ] you took the [ __ ] out? Cuz I like to repeat [ __ ] just in case it come out

  • 2:13:25

    later on when you try to say it. So, I like to beat you to the punch. But you should feel good about yourself for allowing me to go through what I was

  • 2:13:30

    going through and fight right back out of it. I do cuz it was tough.

  • 2:13:36

    I do. It It It was tough for real. Physically, it just so happens that in this line of

  • 2:13:41

    work Yeah. the right time to fire somebody is when they're going through a lot of turmoil

  • 2:13:48

    in their personal life. What? That's Damn. But you ain't That's [ __ ]

  • 2:13:54

    up, Joe. Huh? Huh? That's the right time to fire someone. That's what he's saying normally. Because to do this job great

  • 2:14:02

    would be to the detriment of everything else. M

  • 2:14:09

    what? That was a movie. So if in your in your own life everything just starts going kaput kaput

  • 2:14:16

    Mhm. like that would be wrong of me to now expect you to come in here and do the job to the best of your ability which

  • 2:14:23

    typically means to fire you or give them leave so they can recover a

  • 2:14:29

    lot better for themselves. Yeah possibility. That's why you don't tell nobody your business. Give them your life in silence.

  • 2:14:36

    Oh you must want to. All right. You got minutes on that phone, boy.

  • 2:14:42

    How many? Oh, you got a grandpa playing. Oh my god. Anyway, only new though.

  • 2:14:47

    Let's see. Let's see. Let's see. Let's see. Is that Williams really on Olympic? He's on some.

  • 2:14:52

    Yeah, I don't think this is just eat good eating. Have you ever heard of New Orleans? Fair. You see what happened to him?

  • 2:14:59

    It's good eating, but it's not good eating for an athlete. I don't think it it this thing. For those who don't

  • 2:15:05

    know, Zion Williamson plays for the New Orleans Pelicans. has put out a string of videos and also people have seen him

  • 2:15:10

    in his workouts and he looks the healthiest and the most in shape that I've ever seen him look. I'm talking

  • 2:15:16

    about high school, college, all of it. And it does prompt one to wonder if he

  • 2:15:23

    is using some kind of supplement. And this isn't just exercise and diet. I don't know if it matters to you if it if

  • 2:15:29

    it isn't. I think he could do that naturally. Like you would lose a lot of weight if everywhere you went Mariah Mills was

  • 2:15:36

    behind you chasing you trying to trying to [ __ ] and get some dick. Hey, I got a

  • 2:15:41

    baby. Hey, whatever she's saying. You know, good job.

  • 2:15:46

    Never ending a long walk. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, yeah, I think he could do it naturally, but he does look

  • 2:15:52

    good. He does. He does look good. It only took him seven years. But, but if it is dis like is that a

  • 2:15:57

    problem? Well, that was going to be my question for athletes. I mean, I don't know the long-term effects of those Olympics, so I don't know if it's good for athletes

  • 2:16:03

    or not, but that would be a problem for me if if I were the owner of the team or a trainer on the team or a coach on the team.

  • 2:16:08

    Oh, that's if he jumped if he got on the Zimp for a little bit and jumped off and like looks

  • 2:16:13

    how he looks now and and he maintains by working out, eating, and all that [ __ ] that's a problem. I just say, yeah, I'm saying, but why why is that a

  • 2:16:19

    problem? Because if I were invested in him and I watched him not care about his

  • 2:16:25

    weight and size for seven years, I would be looking for I put all these clauses in his contract that were based around

  • 2:16:32

    his weight. I would want to see him stabilize that without help. Ah

  • 2:16:37

    because if he gets the help then we're now relying on the help and my star

  • 2:16:42

    number one uh pick and investment here is relying on something to Mark's point. You don't know what it

  • 2:16:49

    may health effects it may have on like the owner of the team. I don't care

  • 2:16:54

    about Joe. You do if all of a sudden you can't if it's a three year. It depends on

  • 2:16:59

    whether the long term is 30 years or like next year. Is his story a fall from grace him or he still has time? Cory said no.

  • 2:17:06

    No, he's got time. He still has time. So did he come in starting cuz I remember like he was the one picking the draft.

  • 2:17:12

    Huh? He was the one picking the draft. I remember Jabari Parker when I met him they said when he first played when I

  • 2:17:17

    interviewed him they said that he was good and then I you never heard anything about him after. Now Jabari Jabar he got drafted uh and

  • 2:17:23

    had some a lot of by Milwaukee. He had a lot of leg injuries injuries injury prone career. So with with Zion now like did he come

  • 2:17:30

    when he first came in did he body it and then his personal health he's had a lot of injuries when he's on

  • 2:17:36

    the court he's an allstar. Yes he is. Got it. When he's healthy and on the court playing he's an all-star caliber player.

  • 2:17:41

    It's just rare that he is fully healthy. Exactly. And the problem with him is so much of his game is athleticism, like freakish athleticism. And when you have

  • 2:17:48

    that kind of weight issue, it affects your knees, it affects your back, it affects your feet. So there's a lot of there's a lot of long-term concern about

  • 2:17:54

    him, his ability to play at that level and in that style. And if you have that weight issue and you're injured all the time, now you're

  • 2:18:01

    home with Mariah Mill. He's not home with me. Don't mess with Mariah Man. Stop it, man. Rose, man.

  • 2:18:07

    Close. Rose, you got two children. Yeah. Oh, your home girl. here and Rose.

  • 2:18:13

    Uh, okay. Okay. That's who you live with. I'm just

  • 2:18:19

    saying. But I know about the other show. Okay. That's not That's not That'll stop him.

  • 2:18:25

    Stop it. Come on, man. My friend. They live together. Yo, she got lot. She got lot of put on somebody.

  • 2:18:32

    She should have said that the first time. I'm going to tuck this issue away. Anyway, uh, all right. Metro.

  • 2:18:39

    Yeah. while we're on. Congratulations. Congratulations. Metro. Metro um found not guilty in the uh sexual assault rape

  • 2:18:46

    case that he had. I think you said in less than an hour he was in court. This was a criminal thing, right? Or was

  • 2:18:52

    it civil? Is he found not liable or not guilty? I think it's not liable. It's civil. Oh, so yeah, not liable. Okay.

  • 2:18:59

    Yeah. Oh, yes. Congratulations to him for that one. So, I have a question. It was never no criminal charges with this situation. It

  • 2:19:05

    was always just a civil thing. Okay. Well, yeah. Congratulations to him. And it brought up a question a lot of

  • 2:19:11

    people are asking because you know what accusations do to a person and can do to a person's career and can these things

  • 2:19:17

    like any type of recourse for the accuser

  • 2:19:22

    when they found out there were no there wasn't enough evidence for any of this, right? Like you can make an accusation,

  • 2:19:28

    possibly ruin someone's career and nothing happens. No concept. Absolutely nothing happens afterwards. just go on about your life like all

  • 2:19:35

    right Ice I think the fear for putting up something where it's like cuz I used to say that all the time I would say I have

  • 2:19:41

    two sons so it's like I would and most of my friends are males I would always say like if they have concrete proof

  • 2:19:47

    that this person just pulled that out their ass they should go to jail right but the issue with that is is that that

  • 2:19:53

    could like push other victims for not telling and I think that's why that that that never gets any like gas on it you

  • 2:20:00

    know what I mean because the whole victim blaming thing that's the issue So many sexual assaults and rapes never get solved, never get, you know what I mean?

  • 2:20:06

    It's so many situations, even if they're true. Well, that's what I wanted to say. I don't want to assume

  • 2:20:11

    anything about the details of this case. I mean, what we know is that the jury found what the jury said. The jury said

  • 2:20:17

    when he left, at least the jury jury that was interviewed was that there wasn't enough evidence there. It was just kind of a recollection with fuzzy

  • 2:20:23

    dates and things like that. Um, sometimes, and I'm not saying he's guilty or innocent. I'm saying

  • 2:20:28

    I can I don't want to jump to the fact that because the jury said that they didn't have enough evidence to to find him liable means that she was lying.

  • 2:20:34

    Right. How much time do you do you do you need for it to not be jumping when a man

  • 2:20:40

    says, "Hey, I I'm innocent. I didn't do that. I was clear to charges." How much time?

  • 2:20:46

    Like let me give you an example. There was an accuser that accused Chris Brown of some [ __ ] uh last year, year

  • 2:20:52

    before last or something like that. Yeah. And he had the receipts. He was like

  • 2:20:58

    text messages and everything which totally disproved that. Yeah, that's a better example to me.

  • 2:21:05

    But nothing happened to her either. Right. Yeah. I think that's the point that people keep bringing up where it's like there are

  • 2:21:10

    certain times where I'm not saying every time, but there are certain times where it's like, okay, this is

  • 2:21:16

    some some [ __ ] here, right? Because I think there should be something because you al I know we don't

  • 2:21:21

    want to discourage victims from coming forward but we should find a way to discourage false accusers from coming

  • 2:21:27

    forward. I watch and it is a very thin line to determine who's a victim and who's a false accuser. That's the issue.

  • 2:21:32

    But if you can be proven to be a false accuser, there should be something to happen. I agree. I think there should be

  • 2:21:38

    accountability for anybody who lies over people. People lie. I just again I'm just I I like that example much better

  • 2:21:44

    because in this case what I know of this of this case it wasn't like there was a smoking gun that proved that she was lying as much

  • 2:21:50

    as it was which I think is how the law should work is it's your word against mine and no

  • 2:21:56

    one should go to jail or in this case in a civil case be found liable just cuz it's my word against yours. I I do think that we need more evidence.

  • 2:22:03

    But I don't want to assume that because the jury decided to believe him and it it's noteworthy that this is a lower standard, right? It's it's just a

  • 2:22:09

    proponency of it's not reasonable beyond all reasonable doubt, which is an even stronger argument for him.

  • 2:22:14

    Um but despite that, I don't want to frame it and I know you're not doing this. I don't want to frame it as she

  • 2:22:20

    was lying. But in a case where the evidence is clear, I think there should be recourse. If it's legal recourse, I think that's important. and also civil

  • 2:22:26

    recourse because if I have to get lawyers there there there's harm that comes to me

  • 2:22:31

    right through the accusation that will never be recovered correct um even if I'm found not guilty cuz if

  • 2:22:37

    he if he's found guilty it's at the top of our story today if he's found guilty it's at the top of our story him being

  • 2:22:43

    found not guilty goes to the bottom of the news of the news wires right um the problem is

  • 2:22:48

    and the accusation still stays there and accusation accusation stays there the problem is a lot of times in

  • 2:22:54

    addition to the power imbalance there's also money imbalance. So the person who accuses say Chris Brown, what can I get from that person? Right?

  • 2:23:00

    Chris Brown has far more to lose than could ever be recovered if he's if he's excated. And that's that's the challenge

  • 2:23:05

    sometimes. You can sue them all. You want She needs community service or something. She go pick up some leaves

  • 2:23:11

    like I had to go do or pay his court cost, but I seen they suing cuz they broke.

  • 2:23:16

    I seen a documentary false accusation. Let me be there's a documentary out right now where they follow um these girls that

  • 2:23:23

    were charged like they got they accused some people they weren't found guilty and they basically charged them with

  • 2:23:28

    whatever in their little small town but when they looked back over it they were wrong. So that's why they kind of tell the story like that. But I think that

  • 2:23:34

    that's the whole tug and pull because what other would be what would be the other reason why nothing happens to you?

  • 2:23:40

    Especially when you talk about you can look at certain girls that have done that to more than one person or a person

  • 2:23:45

    that is rich and is popular like Chris Brown where it's constantly happening. You know what I mean? Like you would

  • 2:23:51

    think but even when we watched the deposition with Cardi B and this girl telling this cockami ass story that any

  • 2:23:57

    of us if we hear it it don't sound right. Right. But you still can get that far up just chasing a check. You know

  • 2:24:02

    what I mean? So I don't know. I think that's the only thing that holds it back. But it's such a it's such a problem. Like that's such a

  • 2:24:08

    big deal if you were getting that wrong. And especially being black cuz they get it wrong so much in court with us. It's

  • 2:24:14

    like are we really pushing for some, you know what I mean? For any other laws or you know what I mean? When they get us wrong all the time like they never hear

  • 2:24:21

    us, you know? We always go to jail. Speaking of going to jail, no, I have his statement here. I think the thing is

  • 2:24:27

    important to read at least some of it. Okay. Uh, Metro says, "I'm grateful and thankful to God that I can finally put

  • 2:24:32

    all of this nonsense behind me. Based off of how I treat others and represent myself, never in a million years would I

  • 2:24:39

    have thought I could be accused of such a disgusting and heinous act. Today, I took a victory in court, but in reality,

  • 2:24:45

    there's a long list of losses I stacked up this year." Uh, in this year, long

  • 2:24:50

    process of clear in this year-long process of clearing my name and reputation. I'm sure the very large amount of money and time

  • 2:24:56

    wasted based off of someone else's greed coupled with the incalculable amount of

  • 2:25:01

    money and opportunities that did not make it to me. Yeah. Uh or my team

  • 2:25:07

    during this time. Metro Booming is more than a stage name or family friend familyfriendly brand, but a superhero in

  • 2:25:14

    the eyes of many children and adults around the world. I'm sure I don't have to put in any any more words on how

  • 2:25:19

    devastating these false claims may have been to many. Lastly, the trauma my

  • 2:25:25

    family and I have endured during this dark period can never be forgiven. I legally adopted my youngest brother. All

  • 2:25:30

    right, I don't need all of that. All of that, but you get you get the point of what Metro is saying. Like, congratulations to Metro. You win. But

  • 2:25:36

    what do you win? Right. Right. No, you don't win. You win. You win. You don't less than

  • 2:25:41

    you started at. I lost time. I lost money. My reputation takes a hit no matter what the verdict

  • 2:25:47

    said. And he just lost his mom. Didn't he just lose his mom?

  • 2:25:53

    That means mom passed without seeing that he want that. You know what I mean? He was Yeah. Clear. That sucks.

  • 2:26:00

    Did this exist then? This is that old. She when did she pass? Recently, right?

  • 2:26:06

    Passed recently. Yeah. She hasn't been last year or so. That That's all right. Oh, yeah. The case. Yes. Yes. Longer

  • 2:26:13

    than Yeah. Okay. Yeah, got it. All right. Congratulations to Metro Booming. Yeah, for sure.

  • 2:26:19

    Uh, speaking of legal problems, go ahead. Same thing. This your man.

  • 2:26:24

    Your man Ray J said he's um working with the feds to put a Rico on the Kardashians.

  • 2:26:30

    It sounds so funny. I take it. Wait, what?

  • 2:26:36

    Let me read. Yeah, please. And it it said it's going to be bigger than uh Puffy John.

  • 2:26:42

    Yeah. You never know where he written up there somewhere. It's right on top of Saudi Arabian

  • 2:26:48

    comedy. I'm going Why we couldn't talk about that

  • 2:26:53

    decision? Why we couldn't talk about the Saudi Arabian comedy, Joe? Why? Like you want to put on Patreon? You going to do Patreon? No, but I wanted what what was Patreon?

  • 2:27:01

    What? I can't wait to hear. You know what? We can take We can do it now. Let's Let's talk about Ray Jane.

  • 2:27:07

    Let's do Give me the quote. Okay. You got a problem with zombies? No. Oh, let me I I I do, but that's a

  • 2:27:13

    different conversation. Yo, can you What's the safe word? What's the word? We need No, we need Pop Talks, [ __ ]

  • 2:27:20

    Pop talk. Stop, B. The Federal Rico I'm about to drop on Chris and Kim is about to be crazy. Ray

  • 2:27:27

    J said, I'm talking about I'm on the news every day. I'mma say a lot of [ __ ] Anybody

  • 2:27:33

    that's cool with Kim, they need to tell her now. The feds is coming. There's nothing I can do about it. It's worse

  • 2:27:40

    than Diddy. Why do y'all do this? Like, why? Why? Why? Why? Why are we doing this right now? Why?

  • 2:27:45

    I don't know. I don't know. Like, do y'all believe that Ray J believes this? Yes, I believe. If anybody believes that

  • 2:27:51

    Ray J. Anybody believe Ray J believe it? I think he believe it. Do I think it's

  • 2:27:56

    going to happen? No. But I do think he believes he can do something. I was shocked when he exposed the whole

  • 2:28:03

    thing that she set the videos up. Ever since then, I listened to him with a different ear. I used to think like whatever he say is [ __ ] But when he

  • 2:28:09

    when she when he exposed all that, it just made me look at him a little different. Well, no, slow down. I believe Ray J

  • 2:28:15

    knows a lot of [ __ ] Yeah, me too. That's a fact. That's indisputable. I I agree with he does.

  • 2:28:20

    I think that is that aside, I don't think Ray J believes that he is working

  • 2:28:26

    with the feds to bring a Rico to this family that I still believe he loved. Like, oh, you think he love him still?

  • 2:28:32

    Hell yeah. He still love him. I don't think that. I don't think that either. I don't think that. I think he I do think he might I do think he might

  • 2:28:38

    have talked to the fans if him to say it. He might have been like, "Yo, I I know something." Yeah, I think he Now, if anything comes from it, maybe

  • 2:28:44

    not. But but you think that based on what that he talked to them? I believe him.

  • 2:28:50

    That's what I based on. You believe what he's saying? I I think talking to the feds is such a broad and vague thing that he could have had one conversation with one person

  • 2:28:56

    about something. What Rico do you think exists in the Kardashian? So many. Do you y'all know him?

  • 2:29:02

    I know him. Yeah, a little bit. I don't know him like that, but I got to tell you, Ray, Ray Jay is a showman. Ray

  • 2:29:08

    J puts on a great show. He's a phenomenal entertainer. He knows how to work the cameras. He's learned reality

  • 2:29:14

    TV. He knows how to keep himself in the headlines doing a D trial. The fact he was all over Chris Cuomo show and all

  • 2:29:20

    that stuff suggests that. But to your point, at some point sometimes you start to sell this stuff so much that you

  • 2:29:26

    start to believe your own your own [ __ ] So it wouldn't shock me if he's starting to believe the stories he's telling. I don't have them there.

  • 2:29:32

    You don't have Okay. Ray J's just a car salesman, man. So, you think he's just talking, Scooter? I feel like this just happened a few

  • 2:29:38

    months ago where he did something crazy. What? Oh, sexy red was pregnant or some [ __ ] He been saying nut [ __ ]

  • 2:29:43

    Saying like I slept with so and so when he was on a plane sitting next to sleep. He been saying nut [ __ ] for a few months now.

  • 2:29:50

    All right. Well, you'll have to owe you owe Ra an apology if this comes out and the Kardashians come crumbling down.

  • 2:29:56

    Oh my god. I don't think that's Yeah. No, I don't think that's happening. think

  • 2:30:01

    what could happen to to send the Kardashian empire crumbling. Oh, please. What What could happen? What could we

  • 2:30:07

    hear? What could we hear that y'all think if that'll do it? I don't know. I I don't want to say Look at

  • 2:30:13

    I want y'all some I I'm I have answers to that, but I'm

  • 2:30:19

    not saying them on air. I want I know too much stuff out so much, B. I want to see Look where he draws the line and what

  • 2:30:25

    he's not saying in here. The Kardashian Empire. That's crazy.

  • 2:30:31

    Some things are sacred. Oh my lord. All right. All right. Well, go Ray J.

  • 2:30:39

    Uh, all right. What else? What else? What else? All right. We're doing uh Comedians in Saudi Arabia on Patreon.

  • 2:30:46

    I got But let's talk basketball. Go Saudi Arabia. Come on, man. What What is your issue?

  • 2:30:52

    Do you know the story? I don't know the story, but I know that there's a lot of sports and things happening in Saudi Arabia. Yes.

  • 2:30:58

    Right. with WWE, the UFC, uh, golf. You invited to any other? Yes.

  • 2:31:03

    Would you go? Um, should I not? Am I [ __ ] up your check? No, no, no. Don't. Should I not go?

  • 2:31:10

    This is what I was invited. So, since we're here, I'll just I'll just say what the what my what what the issue is. Uh, there is an allstar comedy

  • 2:31:17

    festival uh being headlined by a bunch of great comedians right now in Saudi Arabia. I initially brought the story up

  • 2:31:23

    to bring Mona into the conversation more as a standup. I wanted to know her take. Um, but the it's uh it was announced in

  • 2:31:29

    July. It's the Riad Comedy Festival. Kevin Hart, Aziz Ansari, the mic. Sorry. Um, Kevin Hart, Aziz Ansari,

  • 2:31:37

    Hannibal Burrus, Bill Burr, Dave Chappelle, Lewis CK, Whitney Cummings, Pete Davidson. I could go on Jeff,

  • 2:31:44

    Chris, and you know there's a lot Chris Tucker I was about to say just so people don't guess wrong. Chris Tucker. Yeah, there's a lot of very There's a

  • 2:31:51

    lot of major comedians going there. There are also many major comedians who are very upset upset about that.

  • 2:31:57

    Obviously, Mark Marin, who y'all know, y'all didn't see. Markin always be upset. Shane Gillis, Zach Woods, you know, they

  • 2:32:03

    they they've launched a kind of counter campaign saying, "Y'all are sellouts. This is awful. How

  • 2:32:10

    could you do this?" The reason Saudi Arabia is home to some of the worst human rights abuses in the world. I

  • 2:32:16

    mean, imagine if they were all going to South Africa in 1986, right? And what would you say? What would you say, right? And so the question for me,

  • 2:32:23

    I mean, y'all, you can walk off the lad. It's fine. You know what I mean? You know, what topics do we not need to

  • 2:32:29

    freedom fight against? Well, that's why I wanted to tell the story so we can actually

  • 2:32:35

    When do he take off his freedom fighter pajamas? I haven't. God damn it. They don't come off, Joe.

  • 2:32:42

    Clearly. Back of Mormon. Yeah. Keep Jesus jammies on at all times. Under his jeans.

  • 2:32:47

    But go ahead. I do want to hear what what No. So, so the question becomes, you know, what do you do when a place like Saudi Arabia, and I don't want to quite

  • 2:32:54

    compared to South Africa. I think that's too extreme, but I was just trying to make a comparison. Um, when Saudi Arabia has some of the worst human rights

  • 2:33:00

    abuses in the world, uh, they they they are they going to the show? They were It's It's sponsored by the

  • 2:33:05

    Saudi Arabian government. No, I'm talking about the people that's on [ __ ] Uh, are they coming? The government itself is on [ __ ]

  • 2:33:11

    Do they perform in the United States? Yeah, but when they laughing, they're not going to want it to Well, no, hold on. Them same comedians,

  • 2:33:17

    do they perform in the United States? I don't they do, but I don't think it's the same thing. Oh, I I don't think it's the same thing.

  • 2:33:23

    As as [ __ ] up as US government is, I don't think it's the same thing. I think if if if a comedian were performing in

  • 2:33:29

    Israel, if a comedian were performing in say Uganda, if a comedian were performing in I can name a few other

  • 2:33:35

    places where human rights abuses are rampant. I think it's a fair question to say,

  • 2:33:40

    what does it mean to go there? What does it mean to support? I think it's at least a question that we should ask. And no state is perfect. No government is

  • 2:33:46

    perfect. So I don't think we have to wait for a perfect government to perform somewhere. But if the people if if women can't attend the show for example,

  • 2:33:52

    right? Okay. I mean we got to ask ourselves like some good jokes off this is why but this is

  • 2:33:58

    why I kind of didn't don't like what you had to say in the first topic about uh

  • 2:34:03

    ticket prices costing a certain amount. Say more because these people, whoever brought

  • 2:34:08

    these people out here, I'm assuming paid a bag just from the names that they

  • 2:34:14

    assuming they paid billion billion dollars. Yeah. 100x the bag what these people's normal bag is.

  • 2:34:21

    They did. Back to my that option should exist point, right? But if when you do that,

  • 2:34:27

    then the very next thing we go to is going to be who are the people that you're performing in front of? like it's

  • 2:34:33

    gonna make it a real slippery slope. I agree. All and all slopes are are are slippery in this way. We none of us have

  • 2:34:40

    clean hands, right? All of us work places do things that are complicated. And that's why I'm not even necessarily

  • 2:34:46

    saying what I'm saying is that we at least should raise the question when we make decisions about where we're going

  • 2:34:51

    to work about what are the moral stakes attached to it. And in the case of Saudi Arabia, it's not just the [ __ ] up things happen in Saudi Arabia and we're

  • 2:34:57

    going to Saudi Arabia. is that you're going you're being asked to go by the Saudi Arabian government effectively. That's what I'm saying is different.

  • 2:35:04

    Okay. Okay. I think you get what I'm saying. Now, if you were just going over there to perform for a 100x your price, you

  • 2:35:11

    wouldn't see a problem with that. But the government doing it's like when Snoop went to dance for Trump.

  • 2:35:17

    That That's what I'm trying to say. That's what I'm trying to say. Like an example you gave earlier where some guy some African rich African billionaire

  • 2:35:24

    oil tycoon is bringing say Rihanna come perform for my son. That's different. You asking people to have a lot of

  • 2:35:29

    discipline, Mark. You're asking people to turn out a lot of money. Like have a [ __ ] like when you morals.

  • 2:35:35

    Yeah. When you get in this bag like that, your expectation of humans is high

  • 2:35:41

    to me. Um I don't know if it's an expectation as much as it is an ask. I

  • 2:35:46

    expect people to do [ __ ] up things, but the ask is that we don't. And I hope that somewhere the tension between the

  • 2:35:51

    ask and expectation, we can get a little bit of growth. I was thinking about this yesterday, too. It's not necessarily a tough ask of

  • 2:35:57

    humans. It's a tough ask of successful people. I don't want to put

  • 2:36:02

    any dollar amount in people's pockets, but I don't think that Kevin Hart, for instance, is hard up for bread.

  • 2:36:10

    I think he could pass on certain gigs if he wanted to make a if he wanted to make a political statement. I just this morning was thinking about,

  • 2:36:17

    but he's a I think he's a bread hole. So, what what are expectations for [ __ ] that hold themselves out for the

  • 2:36:23

    bread? And I don't know that about Kevin Hart, but just as I was getting dressed, he popped up in the iPhone commercial and I was like, "Nigga, you could say no

  • 2:36:29

    to something like share something." Like he he just in everything the Chase

  • 2:36:36

    iPhone, all of the big wigs, he's in there. Like, [ __ ] move. I don't know. I ain't mad at him for that. Shout out

  • 2:36:41

    to ask you a question mark. But I do have an issue with going to Saudi Arabia. I'm not surprised. This This ain't a

  • 2:36:48

    gotcha. None of that [ __ ] Yeah. Is there a number they could give you? No. No. at all. There's no number that could

  • 2:36:54

    go to perform in Saudi Arabia. Well, I have another question. Do you think that Saudi Arabia is trying to Cuz Saudi Arabia now is doing a lot of

  • 2:37:00

    things. Wait, hold up, Flip. Hold up. Let's not let him do that that fast. No, no, no. I I just respected it and let him go.

  • 2:37:06

    Let's go. I respect Let's at least throw some numbers out there first. Throw them. I believe it.

  • 2:37:12

    Yeah. Word. I do. Thank you. I'm going to write them on the board. Throw the number out there. I believe

  • 2:37:17

    it. You don't believe it? I believe that he would turn that [ __ ] down. Run this Philly pride [ __ ]

  • 2:37:24

    [ __ ] Philly. All jokes aside, [ __ ] Philly. [ __ ] the whole Philly thing. $100 million for an hour. No.

  • 2:37:30

    No. Don't start running by me. Your wife. There's other reasons why I wouldn't go

  • 2:37:36

    to Saudi Arabia as well. It's sort of Well, it don't make it Saudi Arabia somewhere. Say Israel. I've been I've been a a

  • 2:37:42

    critic of Israel. I've called I've supported the boycott dest movement for Israel for years. Um there's obviously a

  • 2:37:48

    lot going on right now. There's no number Israel could give me that I would go perform. Hell no. I don't even fly when I when I used to travel in Israel, I wouldn't even fly I

  • 2:37:54

    wouldn't even use the airport. I would spend an extra 5 hours or if not 20 hours depending on the day flying

  • 2:37:59

    through another country so I don't have to use the airport. Like that's what I'm trying to say. Like it I have to have a I have to have a moral

  • 2:38:04

    consistency here. I'm not perfect. I make compromises all the time. I [ __ ] have an iPhone. You could say, "What about the kids in the Congo?" And you

  • 2:38:10

    wouldn't be wrong. That's what I'm saying. I'm not saying I'm perfect, but but I do establish some standards. You have some lines that's

  • 2:38:16

    just I I'm not saying I'm the end all be all with everything, but with these No. And and that's human conversation about

  • 2:38:22

    the V-word. Yes. The harassing you. You taking that money literally invalidates everything you've been doing

  • 2:38:28

    for your whole career and the [ __ ] you've been talking. So that's what comes with that. Now you look like you full of [ __ ] Right. Exactly. Right. And these

  • 2:38:36

    and that's where the bag to me is is [ __ ] the money. I my name means something. It has to mean something. I don't want nobody. No. Hell no.

  • 2:38:41

    Now these comedians haven't made that haven't made that commitment. So I don't hold them to the same standard that I hold myself. But that's why our job as

  • 2:38:47

    voices is either activists, podcasters, newscasters, whatever, is to make them

  • 2:38:53

    aware so that then they have to make that same choice. Cuz until they're made aware, I can't I can't be mad at Kevin

  • 2:38:58

    Hart or Hannibal for not they might not know. They might not even know and and honestly given all the sort of mystique and orientalism that goes on in

  • 2:39:05

    this world where we start to sort of believe that the Middle East is the place to go. Everybody wants to go to Dubai. Everybody wants to go to Katar. Everybody wants to go to these places. I

  • 2:39:11

    get why people might not know it's a big They think it's an honor to perform in front of shakes and all that [ __ ] I get it. And they throwing money around like

  • 2:39:17

    nothing but like, right, but we got to make them know that. Let me ask you a question. What do you What do you think Saudi Arabia goal is?

  • 2:39:22

    You know, they they sponsored the boxing event between Canelo and Crawford like

  • 2:39:28

    the prince was there. Like Saudi Arabia is taking a lot of sports and a lot of acts over there.

  • 2:39:33

    Entertainment, all of that. They wrestling too. So what do you think that what do you think their goal is? Cuz there were a lot of wrestlers that

  • 2:39:39

    wouldn't fly CM Punk certain people. I mean they end up going but they wouldn't fly initially because of the human

  • 2:39:45

    rights. Yeah. They also killed journalists. Yeah. Jamal Khoji was killed at the Saudi Arabian embassy 5 years ago. Rest in

  • 2:39:51

    peace to him my colleague. Um I think the goal is part of it is private wealth to diversify so it's not just oil. Part

  • 2:39:58

    of it is normalizing and deodorizing what happens there. Yes. We kill a journalist which should be an

  • 2:40:04

    international human rights scare but instead Muhammad bin Salman who's the who's the basically like the the the Arab parent to the king. He goes around

  • 2:40:10

    the country on a public relations tour looking like the smooth slick prince is down with all the boxing and the wrestling. So you cover it up by doing

  • 2:40:16

    the South South Africa used to bring people I remember when they brought and I don't remember I wasn't alive yet but there was a time when they brought uh

  • 2:40:22

    Artha Franklin out to perform right and people got mad at Artha for for kind of cross for for crossing a Jim

  • 2:40:28

    Crow line basically they countries do this and let me be clear the United States does it too.

  • 2:40:33

    I'm not saying the United States is exempt. I'm just saying there are regimes that we should be mindful of, especially when the people who are

  • 2:40:38

    oppressed are calling to us and saying, "Yeah, stand with us. Don't do this." I have to hear that and respond to some degree.

  • 2:40:45

    And what what does your job look like when you learn that these people don't some of these people don't give a [ __ ]

  • 2:40:51

    Um, then I can make a choice about whether I choose to support them anymore

  • 2:40:57

    because a lot of these people don't care about the issue, but they care about how it looks. I mean, we could we we have

  • 2:41:02

    been trying to tell people not to perform in Israel for over a decade, 15 years with the BDS movement, right? Over

  • 2:41:08

    over that time, and no one said [ __ ] But now that everything's happening in Gaza, you can't look away. And so now

  • 2:41:15

    people are stopping because it's a bad look. Saying I'm performing in Israel right now looks crazy. 5 years ago it didn't. So what we have to do is put a

  • 2:41:21

    spotlight on the suffering so that we take the profit out of people's pain. Um, to add to that, I think that for the

  • 2:41:27

    most part they look at Americans like dumb, like we're dippy and we don't know [ __ ] So, it's like automatic. What do

  • 2:41:33

    we like? We like food. We like sports. So, we're going to go to the most popping sports event because literally

  • 2:41:38

    he just standing there just I mean, it's like who the [ __ ] is that? So, now [ __ ] googling, who is this uh Arab guy

  • 2:41:44

    in the middle with a boxing ring? They know what that does to people. Next thing you know, it's cool. The goddamn

  • 2:41:50

    costumes go up during Halloween. People want to dress like that. They know what they doing. And they and and then we we are perceived to be easily bought just

  • 2:41:56

    like they bought all them comics. Got you. Would you go the same thing? Would I go over there? Honestly, if they if they called you

  • 2:42:02

    right now and said, "Look, we got uh I don't know what your rate is, but let's say it's 10 times your rate." Let's say it's 100 times your rate, which for some

  • 2:42:07

  • 2:48:01

    cheese? Let's try this again. I was bringing it was right there. I was I wasn't going to do it.

  • 2:48:07

    macaroni and cheese, fried chicken. I I c my cheese cuz it melts better with the

  • 2:48:18

  • 2:48:53

  • 2:49:09

    That's too much work. Flip is right all that [ __ ] sleep over here in Jersey.

  • 2:49:14

    He's right. Don't be hitting the road for 3 hours. Like my chin nice and hot. It's going to be good.

  • 2:49:21

    All right. We do have We do have a part of the show. Somebody needs our help. Let's go. Let's go. This person's name is What's this

  • 2:49:28

    nigga's name? Sir. Hey, sir. It just says sir.

  • 2:49:33

    All right. What's happening? All right. Sir says,

  • 2:49:39

    "Am I the asshole?" Probably. Yeah, if you ask me. I love these on Reddit. Yeah.

  • 2:49:44

    So, recently I told someone that I've been friends with for a long time and consider as a brother that I am cool

  • 2:49:51

    with not having a friendship right now. Here's an example of the situation. Say

  • 2:49:56

    you have a girl that's you. Oh, wait. That must be a typo. Say you have a girl

  • 2:50:01

    that you is your go-to side chick when you was outside. What the [ __ ] is this

  • 2:50:07

    [ __ ] saying? Say you have a girl. Used to be. That's Oh, that maybe Yeah, that used to be

  • 2:50:14

    your go-to side chick or when you was outside. Okay, that makes more sense.

  • 2:50:19

    How would you handle the situation if anyone from the JBP brought her to your party a couple of weeks ago and that was

  • 2:50:25

    the first time you found out that they were a thing? The inspiration?

  • 2:50:31

    A friend/b brotherther of mine brought an on and off side piece to a function

  • 2:50:36

    where he knew I would be at with my current girl. And I didn't know until I walked in. Oh, that seems crazy.

  • 2:50:42

    Yeah, but he didn't. Did he know that the girl was He had to be asking that way. He had to

  • 2:50:47

    hypothetically to help help form a question for the broadcast. Am I the [ __ ] for not wanting to be around my

  • 2:50:53

    friend/b brotherther because of it? Would Kino kick it with Ammani if Ammani

  • 2:50:58

    brought Edith to your birthday party while Kino was with his new girl? Not expecting Edith to be

  • 2:51:04

    That's a little different. I think I love how they chose and Kino, right? They know to put Ammani in any

  • 2:51:10

    [ __ ] which is not fair to who is in the wrong. That was so hard to read,

  • 2:51:15

    right? Also, Kino and Edith are a firmly established couple. That's not a side piece. That's not a

  • 2:51:21

    I mean that's it's a bad example, but the devil's always in the details with this one for me. Like it depends on if

  • 2:51:27

    it's what did you know, when did you know it, and how how tight are we? You know what I'm saying? Like all those questions matter. Like you can't answer

  • 2:51:33

    it without that stuff. If it's the old work,

  • 2:51:38

    it if your man's knew that that was your old work that your on and off old work

  • 2:51:44

    and he bringing her around, that's where it's a little How long ago though? Like is it 10 years ago old work or is it like last year?

  • 2:51:50

    He didn't say old work for y'all. He said your your side piece your on and off like your good go-to side. So

  • 2:51:55

    you'll call her again the way she said. Oh yeah, that's [ __ ] up. No, he's [ __ ] up. That's [ __ ] up then. That's how you took it, right? He said

  • 2:52:01

    your on and off side piece somebody that you like your go-to. That's the exact use. your go-to side piece. So that's the girl you still call sometimes.

  • 2:52:07

    That's the one that you call when Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, no, no. He's [ __ ] Oh, God.

  • 2:52:13

    Oh, Lord. To answer your question, homie. You're not the [ __ ] for not wanting to talk to him no more right now.

  • 2:52:19

    Nah. Well, you're the [ __ ] for being unfaithful to your partner. Yes. Agree. You're an [ __ ] for what he asked.

  • 2:52:26

    Where'd you go to high school? Who wrote this for you? Your son. And if you're being unfaithful to your partner, then

  • 2:52:33

    that means you're abiding by the rules of the streets. Mhm. And if you're abiding by the rules of

  • 2:52:39

    the streets and you with your girl at a function and your man, unbeknownst to him, walking with a joint that is your

  • 2:52:46

    on and northeast, then you and your girl supposed to keep it P. You supposed to keep it P. But

  • 2:52:51

    unbeknownst to you, I'm assuming he knew. I'm assuming the homie knew that that was his homie Sab.

  • 2:52:57

    I know that's your old. You don't know. You ain't did it wrong. You got a girl now. You're not [ __ ] with her. Now I'm [ __ ] with her. And

  • 2:53:02

    now I bring a friend. Brother of mine brought my on and off side piece to the function where he knew I would be at with my girl. And I didn't

  • 2:53:08

    know until I w I say it a long long long time ago.

  • 2:53:14

    Decades. Long time ago. One of the pool parties. He brought a he had one of my old

  • 2:53:21

    some leftover. No. No. On and off joint. He didn't even know though. Wait. I brought something. Yeah, I I

  • 2:53:28

    told you this was the first first pool party. I told you. I was like, "Yo, that's your whole legend grows every

  • 2:53:35

    But but again, I'm not mad at him. He didn't even know that I was

  • 2:53:40

    Oh, that's Yeah, but see dude said dude said he brought it where he knew I would be. All right, listen. Let's assume that he knew

  • 2:53:47

    that. Let's assume that that's [ __ ] up. There's no excusing that. And I know you going to be there with your joint.

  • 2:53:52

    Maybe him bringing her was his way to announce I'm taking her serious. I like her. Then you we got to have a conversation before that. If you my

  • 2:53:59

    brother, that ain't how I find out. You call me like, "Yo, I'm bringing shorty to the to

  • 2:54:05

    the spot. Me and her is getting serious. I just want you to know that." Cuz if you tell me that

  • 2:54:10

    out, nobody gives a [ __ ] It's shady the other way. Yeah, it is. It's super shady the other

  • 2:54:16

    way. It's shady enough to end a friendship. Why? And that's why I say he not [ __ ] If you my brother ain't going to end the friendship, but I got to figure out why

  • 2:54:22

    you did that. I think that the time span does matter, too, though. Cuz he said used to. Yeah, but on and off

  • 2:54:27

    like she we could be off right now. How about off? And that's what I said. If it's 10 years ago, 5 years ago, last week, that's all

  • 2:54:33

    different. If he's still going to have a hard dick and think about calling her, it don't matter how long ago somebody called.

  • 2:54:40

    That ain't the dude standard. That's his on and off. When he not with somebody, he calling her and dude know it.

  • 2:54:46

    I agree with what y'all are saying for the most part. That's his go-to. depends

  • 2:54:52

    on how long. On the back, on the flip side of that, for me, I don't want I'm not judging my friends

  • 2:55:00

    for how they handle me when I'm handling myself wrong.

  • 2:55:07

    Right. I don't think that's right. That's an interesting point. That's an interesting

  • 2:55:12

    point. Handling yourself wrong with me. Cuz he had no business cheating in the beginning. Yeah. If he wasn't cheating, you wouldn't have

  • 2:55:18

    to avoid. If you move foul anyway, then Yeah. Uh, no. It's It's the code to move a foul.

  • 2:55:23

    Sound crazy. That's just It don't sound crazy. I agree with Corey and I can't believe I'm saying that. I agree with Cory

  • 2:55:29

    wholeheartedly on that. That's the problem. You agree with Cory? If maybe. But let's say let's say a

  • 2:55:36

    person's moving foul. That's true. They shouldn't be moving foul. And you don't have a duty to protect in

  • 2:55:42

    a certain way, but you're still my man. True. and doing something to me. But in

  • 2:55:48

    how I'm calculating it, that that's not really your man. Then that's a different issue. Well, that's what he's asking.

  • 2:55:55

    No, he's asking if he's the [ __ ] Is he saying for not the [ __ ] for not [ __ ] with him no more? Clearly, he's

  • 2:56:01

    not viewing him in the light of my brother, my brother, my brother. Right. But I think he's wondering see me if he's asking if he's the [ __ ] not

  • 2:56:06

    is my friend the [ __ ] He's saying like I think he's I think he's wrong. Yeah. He's saying am I wrong for feeling the way I feel about how this dude is

  • 2:56:12

    moving or is my friend moving right? All right. Too many words. Yes or no? I already said I think dude is [ __ ] up. I said dude is [ __ ] to answer your

  • 2:56:19

    question directly. No, you are not the [ __ ] for feeling away and moving away. You moving towards your mans who

  • 2:56:24

    you considered your brother. No, you got a lot of feelings for the onoff joint.

  • 2:56:30

    He don't [ __ ] be having It's a lot of It's a lot of feelings. [ __ ] cry tears for the side. And if

  • 2:56:35

    you got that [ __ ] love their side [ __ ] more than they main [ __ ] Oh, on picture. [ __ ] be mad. [ __ ] be madly in love

  • 2:56:41

    with they s [ __ ] and just like the main [ __ ] a little bit. Oh, what conversation? What's your role predominantly been?

  • 2:56:49

    It depends on what time my life part of my life you talking about. When I was a little younger, I was a side [ __ ]

  • 2:56:54

    though. When's the last time you been a side [ __ ] It been years. I'm old. I can't be quiet

  • 2:57:00

    when that [ __ ] called and all that. I don't got time for that [ __ ] I can't hold it down no more. That [ __ ] called

  • 2:57:06

    me. I'mma say he right there. Talk to the [ __ ] Like I back in the day I was Oh, that's my brother. What? We just get

  • 2:57:12

    money. I would play that game. Now as old as I am, I would really [ __ ] He over here. Come get him.

  • 2:57:18

    You made mom here. She had the door. Oh [ __ ] Yeah, I'm too old for that. And that is always fun at the function.

  • 2:57:24

    Uh when uh when you could play the game of figuring out how long it's going to take your girl to figure out who you

  • 2:57:30

    [ __ ] in here. That's fun. Hey, crazy. You don't know who she came.

  • 2:57:37

    You right. All my friends plus one is [ __ ] my joint.

  • 2:57:42

    This could be like a masquerade ball in a minute.

  • 2:57:48

    Oh my god. Oh, now it's just fine. All right. You got it. Just you. You got it. That's

  • 2:57:54

    just you. That was just you. I didn't say it was me. And you said me. I'm talking about for him.

  • 2:58:00

    And that's way back in the day. That did used to be fun back in the day. Like my 30th birthday. We going to bring

  • 2:58:06

    some hoes in here and figure out how long it's going to take my girl to figure out who's who. Cuz she always she always figured out the girl.

  • 2:58:13

    Then it be a fight outside. Now you outside trying to break some [ __ ] up in the in the suit.

  • 2:58:21

    And now you fighting on the way home. You can't believe your girl punched that [ __ ] in the face. I don't remember that.
