- 0:51
Yeah, it's fine. Come on, it's fine. This nigga got a mouthful of veneers and
- 0:54
one real tooth. That's how you stay grounded, yo. That's how you don't get your
- 0:58
real. That's how you don't get your real. That's how you get one tooth. You
- 1:01
think you get too high to do this? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yo, yo. I'm here,
- 1:03
though. Yo, look. Yo. I'm doubting about it. That's crazy. Or just in case they
- 1:08
all fail, you got the one. Right. So get some chewing done. Nah, that's that
- 1:12
old school shit. You done. cracked the bottle with their teeth. He can't do that
- 1:14
with the veneers. So you gotta keep that one real one for it. Audience, they're
- 1:18
laughing at me because we were off air. Parks was dealing with something really serious
- 1:24
and we started having like a vulnerable conversation. Serious pro tools, not serious. It
- 1:29
started with us on freeze. And then, see that, you gotta be careful. But it
- 1:34
wasn't funny then. Right. Because we was being serious and vulnerable. What? That could have
- 1:40
been funny. That could have been funny. But we was in a loving moment. We
- 1:42
was in a loving space. You went and jumped in the fire. Duck, duck, goose.
- 1:47
It was fired over here. It landed on me somehow, boy. Oh, man, yo. Oh,
- 1:52
my God. So, yes, they laughing at me because I have one real tooth. Can
- 1:57
I ask why you kept the one? Yeah, why you do? Like, what was the
- 1:59
reason for the one? No, I feel like if I tell y'all the truth, y'all
- 2:02
start laughing some more. No, we're not going to laugh. Come on. This is a
- 2:06
safe space. Yeah, we're being vulnerable. It's one of the safest spaces. Come on in,
- 2:11
Joseph. Honestly,
- 2:17
yeah. I overshare on this body. I share too much of this body. Honestly, when
- 2:22
I went to the dentist, I thought that they was all done. And I think
- 2:25
she charged me like they was all done, too. But it wasn't until I went
- 2:29
to get a cleansing. Cleaning. Cleaning. That too. I hope. Spiritual
- 2:35
cleansing. I'm mistaken. Yeah, I went to get a cleaning, and
- 2:41
she slipped up. She told me, she said, you got one real one in the
- 2:44
back here? I was like, wait, what? Hold on, wait. She owe you a tooth.
- 2:48
Why would you do that? Go get your tooth, man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Go get
- 2:52
your tooth. She owe you a tooth, man. It's a K.O. I'm short. So, yeah,
- 2:56
I got water, man. It'll leave eventually. Because I got to go do that shit
- 2:59
at some point. What, an implant? Get your hair laser? Yeah. Oh. I got one.
- 3:02
Snickers and nuts. All right. You got to get implants on a veneer? No, I
- 3:08
don't have one back here. Oh, okay. You got a missing. Yeah. Yeah, I got
- 3:11
one. I was supposed to get the implant. I just never did it. But the
- 3:13
way that she described it at the time. You used to be gumming That didn't
- 3:16
sound like- Nah, that shit don't sound like some shit you want to do. They
- 3:20
drill, they got to put the shit in there, then they got to put the
- 3:22
post and all that. I was like, yo, fam, I'm cool. I don't be gumming
- 3:25
shit, but the way they explain it, as you age, what gravity does to your-
- 3:29
Sinuses. Gums and your jawline and how it affects things, you got to get it.
- 3:34
You got to go get it. You got to get it. It's going to fuck
- 3:36
you up. Yeah, it'll start, your other teeth will start closing in and it'll fuck
