Nah, Joe gotta do a jersey swap with Bernice
You might have to though
You know you might have to though
I can see
Nah, there's a few
Your jersey belong in a few spots for sure
Nah, you was definitely the GM of the Starlets
Yo
I can't believe you don't have a poster at Starlets
Or Star Tenders rather
Yeah, how come they didn't put you a little picture up next to it?
When they made the poster wall?
Yeah, man.
They took down 6ix9ine.
It was empty.
They could have put you right there.
Yo, you want to hear Mike's?
They did.
It was empty.
Did you go to Starlets after he snitched?
No.
They took it right down, and it was just an empty frame.
I was like, why my man can't get that?
Oh, Starlets has integrity?
I never knew that.
I like that.
Too many people that he may have possibly snitched on
are patrons of that place.
They was behind the movement, though.
They was strong behind the movement.
They was carrying the movement.
Yeah.
And them songs rang off in Starlet's.
I ain't going to hold you.
No, they were nuts.
They did.
But no, listen.
The psychology of it for me is
somehow, ironically, when they put the poster
wall up, the rapper wall, I feel like it's corny if you're there now.
Anywhere where the rapper wall is, I feel like, nah, I can't be there.
It's a Hall of Fame.
If you're on the wall or just period?
If I'm on the wall.
Oh, okay.
Got it.
If you're on the wall and you frequent the place, like they're going to put me on the Starlet's wall
and I'm going to walk in and be looking at me like, all right.
Yeah.
All right, I see what I did up there.
That's your accolade.
Take a flick next to it.
You put in the thousand hours.
Even in Pink Teacup when they had the wall
and they asked me to take the picture,
I was like, ah.
And that wall was like legendary, legendary.
The spot, the cheesesteak spot in Philly,
I forgot the name with all the pictures on the wall. All of yeah there's a few spots yeah but there's a few spots where
my jersey it needs to be recognized the the work that i've done there melodies is one of them
melody is one you start the wall like you know they have the banners merry christmas over steinway
like they probably should put you on one of the banners because he kind of he made steinway pop
as someone who lived here during it and participated in part some of it that was all over Steinway, they probably should put you on one of the banners because he made Steinway pop.
As someone who lived here during it
and participated
in some of it,
that was all Joe.
For a certain community.
Now, Steinway wasn't lit
like this before Joe.
You have to just notice
Maul and Rory
anytime a flower
looks like it's coming my way.
No, no, no.
Somehow they go to intercept a flower.
No, I just fought
for him to replace
this night.
No, no, no.
You just looked at me
and was like,
don't do that again.
Don't do that to me.
Parks is right.
He's got a point.
I gotta take my flowers
while I'm here, Maul.
I'll take your flowers.
We're not gonna always be here.
Right.
If Melody don't know
that my jersey
should be up in the sky,
who better than me?
Who better than me to bring it there and say,
yo, dog, you forgot this. Put this up there.
I respect that.
Your jersey should be in the rafters there for sure.
I respect that.
Yeah, Melody. Absolutely.
Nobody drank more pineapple juice in Melody than you did, yo.
You ever caught a hand in the bathroom?
Ma, tell me my jersey shouldn't be up in Sin City
even though Sin City's not there anymore.
Come on, stop it.
Stop it.
Some of this shit is just fat.
You definitely the only nigga to eat cake and drink.
Come on, man.
Honest, give it up.
That's what does it?
Give it up.
Give it up.
Joe ate a whole chocolate cake in a week.
Like Rory, maybe you and Rory should be up in Soho House
and Dumbo House maybe, right?
I've been there three times.
Last lap.
Last lap.
Oh, last lap.
Let's go, Rory. Let's go. He might have to be the face you see on the walk times. Last lap. Last lap. Oh, last lap. Let's go, Rory.
Rory might not have been around long enough.
He might have to be the face you see on the walkout from last lap.
My jersey belongs in the dressing room.
Rory B. Jordan.
You were going to play a song, I thought.
Rory.
Rory B. Jordan.
I mean, let me get my Kidding bag
I'm playing my melody

you walked up to her
and said hello

That is cryptic.
You see me doing what?
You could be outside my window, nigga.

A seminar.
You know Rory's a seminar.
Yeah, for sure.
I might go to a seminar.
Bring the host to the seminar. It's pretty funny. Yeah. And then tell him it was canceled. That's all they used a seminar. Yeah, for sure. I might go to a seminar. Bringing the host to the seminar
is pretty funny.
And then tell him
it was canceled.
That's all they used to do
in Miami for the winter
music conference.
That was just another reason
for everybody to go to Miami
and hump.
That's kind of what
I feel like all events are.
Like All-Star Weekend,
yeah, it's cool to see
all the NBA players.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Nobody really watches
that when they there.
It's for people to go
to the city and hump.
Niggas be at the game
sleep hungover
at All-Star Weekend. I've seen it. Niggas be at the game sleep hungover at All Star Week.
I've seen it.
Niggas be in the skybox
snoring.

Them chicks was so mad
when All Star was in Chicago.
They pulled up though.
Yeah.
I saw the footage.
They pulled up
and stayed by a radiator.
Yeah.
They pulled up.
This is what they did.
They definitely pulled up.
Oh man.
Okay,

One day I should just go back and melody.

I just, you know.

This is out already.
He's out already, right?
I think in December.
We don't even know.
Look, he don't even know.
These drop for y'all.
Oh, that song.
Y'all finally heard that song?
Yeah, I know he would know.
You want to raffle?
No, I don't do raffles.
Stop playing with me.
Is that offensive to you?
Yes.
All right.
I'm letting you know.
Yes.
So now you don't have to ask me to give you this.
But me, your friend, you know I would never intentionally offend you.
I take offense to you thinking I wake up and hit my phone to try to get sneakers.
Okay. I don't do that. Okay. But you're doing offend you. I take offense to you thinking I wake up and hit my phone to try to get sneakers. Okay.
I don't do that.

What's today?
Today is the Wednesday.
So how were you guys' weekends?
Anything interesting?
The weekend was cool, man.
No, I didn't do much.
I got a Christmas tree
and got drunk.
You got the tree ready?
Nice.
I got way too big of a tree.
That's the best thing about being...
Chop it down yourself?
No, but I had to buy a saw
to chop it down more.
I bought like a 12-foot tree
and my ceilings are
probably nine feet tall.
It feels good to do some man shit
every now and then.
Yeah.
Best thing about being single now
is that you don't have to get the tree.
Ah.
Because you have to get the tree.
Oh, absolutely.
I got a tree anyway.
They love it.
Even when I was single, I like it.
I know.
We talk ourselves into it.
Oh, I love the pine smell.
Yeah.
I know.
And then you're sweeping up pine
for two months.
Facts.
Oh, it just smells so much like Christmas
in here now.
Yeah.
All the bullshit.
Until we found pine aerosol. Every Christmas for? Yeah. All the bullshit. Until we found pine air sole.
Every Christmas.
Christmas candles.
Until you see the gift she got you.
I was like, man, bitch.
You bitch.
Pajamas.
More.
I sleep naked.
Yes, more boxers.
Wow.
The red ones this time.
Imagine holidays being for men.
That's when you notice how much your girl don't even look at you.
You don't even wear boxers.
Yeah.
At all.
And you know my dad gets me boxers and tank tops every year if you've been with me.
So why the fuck are you doing that?
Because you may need more.
That's why as a significant other, you get one ball out Christmas from Joe for you to match energy.
You take notes from there.
Oh, 1,000%.
I like that strategy.
Yeah, I got to see how they on it.
Sorry.
The custom chess board isn't doing it anymore.
Oh, it's gold pieces.
I don't play chess.
How's that?
I don't know how to play.
Never did.
But Uncle Walter is really hype When he comes over
Hey Joe
Anybody of your friends

Stack of thermals
Over the past decade

For under the jacket

One time
These ones go under your jeans.

Yeah.
One time I tried to freak it,
but I can stop.
Yeah.
You know what?
Just give me a pair of concours.
Keep it light.
Yeah.
No,
I can't get you sneakers.
Cause then you'll walk out of my life.
Oh my God.

Can be tough
Absolutely
This year especially
Shit
Yeah I didn't even think
About that added toughness
Man
Man
It's already a depressing
Time of year
For a lot of people
Imagine people
That already are depressed
And may have lost someone
Or are more depressed
Because they haven't left
The house in eight months
Yeah
Yeah
It's rough
It definitely doesn't feel like
The holiday
Yeah
That's why I got tree early Fuck yeah Wait what the fuck Are you talking about Didn't the Dreamville Yeah. It's rough. It definitely doesn't feel like the holiday. Yeah.
That's why I got treated early.
Fuck yeah.
Wait, what the fuck are you talking about?
Didn't the Dreamville Christmas album,
just the LVNR Christmas album just come out?
To restore the feeling?
How could it not,
how could it possibly not feel like the holidays?
Snub for a Grammy.
Oh no.
Yeah, we need a little more.
They try to, but you just need a little more.
I'm waiting for Cam.
Once Cam put out a Christmas album, then you know the holidays are here. Then I know what?
The holidays are here.
No?
No.
My bad.
That's not what does it for you?
I didn't mean to trick you.
My bad.
See, listen.
Listen, this could be our year.
This could be our year.
It's not, man.
It's not, man. But it could be our year. It's not, man. It's not, man.
But it could be our year.
It's not, man.
I'm chilling.
I'm chilling.
I'm chilling.
Like, I'd be playing with you.
I know.
You'd be trying to really.
I know, man.
No, I'd be chilling, man.
I'm just fucking with you.
Hey, well, Roy, how you doing, man?
I'm taking it day by day.
You know.
Everything okay?
Taking it day by day.
Roy, we trying to give us hints.
Like, yo, won't help me.
Day by day, man.
That's my strategy.
One day at a time?
Today is a day.
Oh boy, going through it.
No, I went to the dentist.
Apparently, I grind my teeth when I sleep.
Oh, I know what that means.
Look at the things you find out about yourself
as you get old.
You got to get out of that house, man.
Yeah, I don't have enough fiber.
Rory being a sleep person,
I'm fucking sure.
A regular calm guy like me, I could never imagine that I would grind my teeth in.
But yeah, then I don't have enough fiber in my diet.
So that's with that.
At 30 years old, I feel like I've had more thumbs from a doctor in my ass
than a 60-year-old man that has a cancer scare at this point.
Got to get your fiber.
So yeah, I'm violated pretty often by a doctor
and I don't have enough fiber
and I keep taking the pills,
the shakes,
I eat bread.
You keep getting figured.
And he just keeps
sticking it up there.
Yo, is this nigga dying?
No.
You got to get that Metamucil.
I have it.
You do?
I have the pill version.
You got to stop eating dairy.
I don't eat dairy though.
I think it's the dairy.
It could be. That's such an old... Your pops or anyone say it stop eating dairy. I don't eat dairy, though. I think it's the dairy. It could be.
That's such an old.
Your pops or anyone say,
yeah, it's the dairy.
All right.
So, no, honestly,
all jokes aside,
what I get from what you're saying
is that your ass region
is no longer a sensitive area.
No, no, no, not at all.
Where it's worn out.
It's welcoming.
It's welcoming.
He's got the beef curtains.
Pretty much doesn't matter what doctor goes back there it's all gonna feel the same not rory with the ass keloid you gotta relax man you gotta fucking calm down calm down no disgusting
when uh when a chick wants to spice things up and oh do you like your ass oh you're gonna do much more
than that it's very numb down there advertisers right here is where your product can go
no but what's so awkward in between this riveting content what's so awkward about it is the doctor can't do it alone by law.
There has to be people in the room.
So not only are you feeling emasculated by having a man stick his fingers in your ass,
there's an audience that you have to look at.
And they follow the pod.
Did you give him a show?
He felt emasculated.
I squirmed, Farks.
You didn't give him a little bone? he felt emasculated I squirmed Farks you didn't give him a little
bone
he felt
emasculated
yeah
I bet you
did
uncomfortable
it wasn't
him
yeah
I don't
mean to
laugh
we're already
against the
MVP
I'm done
I'm finished this ain't even up he's shooting for it he's already against the MVP I'm done I'm finished
This ain't even up for debate
He's shooting for it
He's been shooting for it
I'm telling you
My asshole took us there
Look, man
You never
Look, you would've never thought, huh?
Yeah, man
Yeah, treat every song
like it could be the one
That's what Theo Sotomayor said
About my ass?
Alright, no
We're off of your ass now
That's fine
But yeah, everyone get checked.
It's important.
Yes.
Thank you.
Men,
especially.
Everyone get fingered.
Yeah.
I'm not going to get checked.
What if they find something?
You end up like me,
taking 10 fiber pills a day,
sneaking off to the doctor
and not telling anyone.
Yo,
you are really pussy
if you take fiber pills.
Just eat some fruit,
man.
It doesn't work with my food.
I tried.
Get some pineapple for that sake.
You got to eat some more roughage.
Get some leafy greens, man.
This nigga eat raisins for breakfast.
Raisins are good.
Look at Rory.
Raisins are good, damn it.
And they're good for you.
They are.
Oh, now Rory on a fiber diet.
Listen, bro, it's-
And he only 30.
I know.
It's hereditary.
I've known about this for a while.
We're going to get the GoFundMe going for you so you can buy more fiber.
I appreciate that.
We'll set it at 500K.
Yeah, no, it's expensive to take all these shakes.
Man, this nigga better go roll around in the grass or something.
Look what you're telling him to do.
He doesn't have fiber.
Don't roll around in the grass.
I never even thought of it that way.
Go roll around in the grass
if your fiber is low.
If you don't go to Home Depot,
eat a plant.
By the way,
Joe has wondered why
for how many years
we've been doing this podcast
that we come in and he asks,
how are you doing?
We just say good.
Yeah.
Because then when you tell him you're doing bad,
he laughs.
Roll around in the grass.
Yeah.
You might have colon cancer,
but go roll in the grass.
Oh, man.
Yo, that was great.
That was awesome.
E-Rap is in.

That's also where your jersey should be hung up.
That's a big fact.
They're not sponsoring us, but yeah.
My jersey should be hung up over there.
All right, gentlemen.
Speaking of which, you drink so much coffee.
I know you have the runs at least every other day.
I don't. that's too much
coffee I don't I never knew how fast you go to the bathroom if you drink black
coffee oh yeah it's almost like instant though yeah that shit is crazy the
coffee and sick combo is just roll around the grass man
anyways
I'm so happy to woke up breathing today
let me take away some breath
alright come on
where do you want to begin
it's pod time
the big news
what was the big news?
The Grammy nods.
The Grammy nods.
Everyone's favorite time of year.
Validation.
Who got snubbed, Rory?
Give me validation.
No, I didn't get snubbed.
I didn't make the deadline.
Me either.
Yo, that line got to go too.
I didn't make the deadline?
Yeah, no, no, no.
I just missed it.
Yeah, no, we didn't submit.
I know.
I know you didn't. I have no idea what just missed it. Yeah, no, we didn't submit. I know. I know you didn't.
I have no idea what the deadline is.
Yeah.
The deadline.
Album trash.
I remember I went to you one like,
yo, man, we ain't getting,
we ain't getting no way to submit that shit.
Oh, all right.
We had other things to do that day.
Y'all didn't think that was important?
No.
It's so rough being in this industry as why do people why do people want to do it like every interview i try to get that out of people like yo what makes
you want to do this it's horrible glitter and the sparkly stuff no they don't even show that
anymore it's not glamour and glittery yeah yeah everybody everybody look like they went in right
now the glam and glitz is when we get used to have videos played where's the glam
and glitz now yeah tiktok and i don't have a tiktok but uh but i do see some of the content
creators on instagram and the creative ways that they're using t as curvy, beautiful adults.
I see what you're getting at.
And it did make me rethink. Joe just spent his weekend under the Meg body hashtag.
Body, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy.
That's what you was doing all weekend?
No.
You was looking at ass.
I didn't even know that that was a thing.
Oh, man.
Yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy.
Oh, my God.
They're shaking ass.
Oh, that's what JT meant when she posted that picture
that's a good picture
she did it again
man
I followed
oh you didn't before
no
they got the follow out of you
yeah
so was that a challenge
she's a tremendous artist
you know
makes the Adi Adi Adi challenge
the body challenge
yeah
cause
she does a dance in the video
so it's
not a
ball you wanna demonstrate the dance?
Let me see.
No, I don't want to demonstrate.
This is where you have screen time.
Let me see what they're doing.
No, it's right here.
It's right there on the screen.
But you can do that.
Let me see.
No, I can't do that.
Definitely not doing that.
You didn't do that in the choir?
No.
I promise you, that move was never in our choreography at all.
It's a good move.
It would have worked for you guys, I'm sure.
I see what's happening. I told you It's a good move. It would have worked for you guys, I'm sure. I see what's happening.
I told you this was
a game movie.
But Body was one of the songs
I liked from that album.
Yeah.
I believe it's a single.
I'm going to shake ass to it.
It should be a single.
It's definitely a single.
It looks like a really good video.
Yeah.
They was trying to kill me.
It was a small group of people
were trying to kill me
on the internet
for apparently saying that I couldn't critique Meg's album
because I was protecting her mental health.
You people on the internet are idiots,
and I say it all the time.
Shut the fuck up.
Stop attempting to understand what I'm saying if you're stupid.
I'm never talking to the stupid people.
Thank you for saying that.
There are a lot of stupid people on the internet.
I clearly said here and said that album is mid.
That was my critique.
But this body shit, now I will go home and search this hashtag.
Yeah.
I mean, for research purposes, maybe a challenge that you would have.
You just want to keep gauging what the album is doing.
You have to understand what the new social.
Rattle the snake to that one.
No.
You can just watch the video.
Relax.
Just relax. You don't have to assault yourself all the time.
Fucking relax, man.
Joey ready to assault himself.
Look how you describe it.
I don't describe it that way.
It's consensual with you?
Shut up, Rory.
So back to Grammy noms.
Yeah.
Or did we even start that?
We did, right?
We sort of, but not really.
All right, well, let's start Grammy noms.
Okay.
Let's see it scream in.
Album of the year.
Whoa, why you got us here?
You want to start there?
I don't want to start there.

Album of the year. I'm not here to play. Let's go
Rory. Jhene,
Black Pumas, Coldplay,
and Jacob Collar.
Wait, what?
I'm just reading off Variety.com.
Shout out to Variety.com.
Maybe.
They didn't do this.
The Grammys? No, they don't do the Grammys, but they do post who gets nominated.
No, but I'm saying.
Anyway.
Janae.
And who?
D Smoke?
The Black Pumas.
No, we're going to get to that later.
Coldplay.
And Jacob Collar.
I believe I'm pronouncing that correctly.
I don't know who that is.
Jacob Collar.
And then going on, Haim Ham. Haim, I believe I'm pronouncing that correctly. I don't know who that is. Jacob Collier. And then going on, Haim, Haim?
Haim, I think.
Dua Lipa.
I don't understand why I can never pronounce artists' names anymore.
Post Malone, hey, your guy.
And Taylor Swift.
I see what's happening.
I see what's great happening.
Yeah.
What?
The old Taylor.
Taylor's re-recording all that music.
That Blackpool was album came out last
year by the way.
It was nominated
last year.
Yeah but it was
submitted this year.
Yeah but it didn't
win.
Oh it's a deluxe
that came out last
week so they
snuck it back in.
Wait you can
win off deluxes?
Apparently.
You gotta see the
loopholes.
So why can't
Outkast Equipment
I be here?
That's a good
question.
That would win
this category.
It would.
It wasn't a good
enough album.
That's right. Swift gave us something on folklore. album swift gave us something on folklore i'm kidding by the way i'm kidding that's a joke um okay i'll scream man we can go to the next category you know please don't let me rely
on rory's reading ability thanks man you want to do song of the year next
sure that's fine since that's where he has it. Black Parade, Beyonce, Roddy Ricch, The Box, Cardigan, Circles, Don't Start Now, Everything I Wanted, I Can't Breathe, If The World Was Ending.
The Box.
The Box should win that.
Should win that.
It was, I think, the most successful single of the year.
But they'll probably figure a way to give it to Taylor Swift or somebody.
Yeah, she's re-recording all of that.
Joe, you want to hit us with best new artist?
No.
D Smoke's there for you.
I don't.
I don't care about any of this.

stallion what are you trying to add some suspense to my reading on screen man i want to see that
prior to win that one actually i have no idea we should win any of this stuff.
And I don't want to just
because I'm not familiar with everybody
on here. So I don't know.
That's why Meg should probably win.
Yeah, but you know they like to do the eclectic
winner. Sometimes. The weird
winner that, oh, now you're going to learn from
us. This is what you
should be listening to. Best R&B

Again,
I don't know who should win.
I'm not familiar with all these songs.
The fact that Summer Walker over it
is not in Best R&B Album.
It's insane.
I'm confused here.
It's like offensive.
Did they submit? Ask Mo. I'm confused here. It's like offensive. Did they submit?
Ask Moe.
I don't know.
He was in Toronto.
Nah, they all kept it at the border too long.
It was late getting in.
They held the album?
Yeah, they held the album at the border.
Let's get to best rap album.
I don't understand this performance shit.
Whatever.
Great.
They lucky that she's too busy being pregnant and in love.
I feel like she would address that.
I still think it's gonna.
Even if it was like,
I don't know.
Everything about Summer says,
you know,
she creates music,
puts it out,
and however people receive it,
they receive it.
I don't think she pays attention to
What the fuck does performance mean?
Accolades and shit like that.
When you performed it.
So it's just like
how well they rapped on that song?
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
That's what it is.
That's what I was doing.
I wouldn't describe many of these songs as exceptional rapping.
But carry on.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Back to the real shit.
Best rap album.
We can skip all the other categories.
D Smoke, Black Habits.
Huh?
Freddie Gibbs.
He said D Smoke, Black Habits is what he. He said D Smoke, Black Habits
is what he said. Best rap album
of the year.
Huh?
Parks, he signed to Netflix.
Huh?
Freddie Gibbs, Alchemist, Alfredo,
Jay Electronica, and Jay-Z, A Written Testimony,
Nas, King Disease, Royce the Five-Nine,
The Allegory.
I love the last four.
Okay, does this mean, does JLX nomination
mean that I have to walk back my hate?
No. Alright, awesome.
But that's family, he listens, so we should
say that. No, I think it's great.
No, congratulations. I'm not here
to hate. No, no. I'm not here to hate.
Big congrats to Royce and
Freddie and Al. That's amazing.
Yeah, that's big. And Nas.
And Nas, absolutely.
I kind of hope they're setting, just my personal shit,
I hope they're setting this up for Nas to finally get a Grammy.
Yeah.
Like, they've snubbed him too long.
Give him a Grammy.
I don't even care what it's for.
And the album was dope.
That would be nice.
More importantly.
I think Royce is my favorite out of that list.
Or maybe Freddie Gibbs, no.
Those would be my favorites.
Yeah, Alfredo probably is the most Replay value
Give me the snubs
Who do you think
Deserves to be here
And who would you take away
I would take
Best rap album
Yeah
I would take D Smoke
Cause Lil Baby should be here
Lil Baby
Roddy Ricch
Roddy Ricch should be here
Yeah
I think Pop Smoke's album
Yeah
One of them
I think he has two
In this cycle
The main one Pop Smoke should've got a look I feel like I think he had two in this cycle. The main one.
Pop Smoke should have got a look.
I feel like that's one of those that will get nominated next year.
I mean, they might not.
I don't know what the holdup is.
Two for the Stars, Ain't for the Moon.
That should be nominated, I feel.
Yeah, I would like to see Pop nominated.
I thought that album deserved it.
I agree.
Rest in peace, Pop Smoke.
Absolutely.
Did you text Stephen Victor that? No no i did not text stephen victor that uh you i'm sure
facetimed him did you text web star no they just hit him on the chatty house did you text webstar
why would i text webstar just just to say what's up say hi yeah oh no i i didn't maybe i should
check in i did what's up big bro he had had COVID If Webstar is Rory's big bro
Don't do that man
Don't do that to Rory
Rory who's your big bro
I ignore a lot of
I am an only child Joe
I do not have a big bro
Y'all have made big bro so offensive
It is
But it shouldn't be right
Unless it's your real big brother.
That is not true.
We hate our big brothers.
Not everybody.
Nobody's big bro and their actual big brother.
We're trying to fight our big brothers.
You're the only one that hates your big brother.
You never tried to fight none of your brothers?
No.
Who did you fight at the family reunion?
Cousins.
Same shit.
No.
You fought your closest cousin before?
Not my closest, no.
Who did you fight at the family reunion, Rory?
I definitely fought my closest cousins up until adults.
Not my closest, but the other cousins that I'd be like...
I don't even remember how we got on this now.
Big bro.
And you only really fight your cousins because your moms and your aunts don't get along.
Rory has big bros out there somewhere.
I'm not going to spend money on a PI to locate them.
But there has to be a big bro out there somewhere.
What's your definition of big bro?
I want to go. No, see.
Stop, because niggas
have made it funny now and now men can't be
vulnerable. Yeah, yeah. Watch your mouth.
No, because it's funny when someone you don't know who's younger than you
says, what's up, big bro?
No, it's more funny when it's someone you do know who is
older than you. But that's the joke.
Unless it's one of the young boys that'll kill you.
That's a joke, but it happens very often.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, yeah, do I have-
So what's your OG?
Do I have older gentlemen that I look up to?
See, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look.
That's my problem with you dudes.
It's just semantics.
It's just semantics.
That's different.
Explain them to me.
The OG is usually like-
Someone you learn from.
Yeah. Someone usually more experienced, probably more traveled, than big bro explain them to me the OG is usually like someone you learn from someone a little
usually more experienced
probably more traveled
to give you some advice
to help you in your journey
right
yeah sure
why is that not a big bro
as well
cause big bro isn't
quite the OG status
then tell me what a big bro is
now if you have a real
bigger brother
no more
I don't care about your family
I'm trying to get hip hop involved
I'm not calling
some nigga that's just
older than me my big bro.
Well, if he guided you.
I'm asking what is the difference in what I just asked.
Not y'all personal take on big bro-ing somebody.
I can only talk from person to person.
All right, Moe.
You don't have a big bro.
You don't have any bros.
I have big brothers.
They're my brothers.
And they're big bro.
Yeah, and they're older than me.
I'm the youngest.
And they were Big's brother.
Yeah.
Can I get a serious answer to my question, please, so I can be enlightened?
I think the OG is older than the Big Bro.
And the Big Bro isn't quite to OG's status.
Yo, man is so stupid.
You just hear us.
I don't think there's much difference.
Yo, it's different because the OG is older.
What the fuck?
What is the difference?
Who's your Big Bro?
I don't think there's much difference.
Steven Victor?
Lenny S.
I can see that.
That's Rory's Big Bro. Lenny? Yeah. I can that. That's Rory's big bro.
Lenny?
Yeah.
I can see Brenner being Rory's big bro.
Benner?
Benner, yeah.
He's older than you, right?
Well, yeah, much older than me.
Sean Money is Rory's big bro.
Asher Rolf is Rory's big bro.
I would put Sean in a big bro category.
What do you know?
We found a big bro.
See?
There's nothing wrong with that.
Why wouldn't Sean be OG?
Yeah, I think Sean would be more OG than
I'm done with y'all. I think it's about the same.
Y'all are so prideful. Thank you,
Rory. Thank you, Rory. Come back.
Fuck with me. I'm not trying to insult you.
I say Benner because
Benner is a white man.
We have found the difference.
The demand
criteria is nuts.
Shaw Money is a brother, but he's older than you.
He's not your real brother.
He's an OG.
Can we get back to the Grammys, please?
I suppose.
So you didn't call Stephen Victor?
No.
Okay.
The fact that no female artists were nominated for R&B album in a year is a little funny, though.
Whose part's big, bro?
What's one of the famous Mixer niggas?
Greg Sackleroy?
The famous.
Oh, yeah.
Greg Sackleroy did this one.
The famous Greg Sackleroy.
I don't think I called you Greg Sackleroy.
If you know anything about him, his one project is a standalone legacy.
Standalone.
Can't put any albums next to that one.
Next to Greg Sackcharine shit um back to
the grammy noms y'all were saying it is amazing that uh no women are nominated for the best r&b
album is that is that a fact yes that's a fact uh let's look where's my phone let's call justice
yeah no no women uh yeah I can't believe Summer Walker.
Brandy's album, I think you could talk about that one in there.
We were saying that Snow was not in this cycle of time, right?
Summer made the cycle of time?
Yes.
She should definitely be.
She had the best time.
She had the best time.
Tiana had a great R&B album.
Tiana, for sure, had a really good time. Summer had the best R&B albumiana for sure had a really good summer had the best rmbl
i agree i agree as well yo justice this is joe budden and the gang from the jbp
my boys without doubt we love you and we miss you let's start with that how are you
um man life was beautiful to this fucking morning, bro.
Shit crazy.
Is everything okay?
Yeah, bro.
It's fucking Grammys.
Okay, good.
As long as it's just Grammys.
That is what we were talking about.
As long as it's just Grammys,
then it's bad.
So you feel the heat
from some of that too, huh?
Nigga.
This shit is so inaccurate, bro.
Like,
like,
I'm so lividvid i get mad talking about
it bro it doesn't make any sense but tell me tell me why we still get angry let me let me hear it i
know you do because you speak from a different position let me tell you why i still get angry
why i still get angry is because from an executive position bro like at the end of the day yes it's
not for us it's never been for us but bro it's still one of those things, like, I still want to compete at the highest level.
And at the end of the day, in order for our music to still always cut through, we got to go and smack these niggas up and show that our culture is really, like, the most important thing.
And, like, nigga, like, we need that recognition, bro.
Like, it doesn't make sense.
Whatever they try to send, it doesn't make sense, they try to send it doesn't make sense bro
i don't fuck with it and it's just it's an emotional thing like it means a lot for some
reason you know i'm saying like i don't know why and it means a lot maybe because of what it would
do for the business if summer were nominated even if she didn't win not only not only that
having you having that in front of your name, Grammy nominated or Grammy winning, it hires your price.
But it's really more disrespectful when she had the best R&B album of the year.
By far had the best R&B album of the year.
Bro, every single category, my nigga, she dominated.
She was up for every critics list, every fucking billboard prediction prediction every block prediction all that the
music the music was better she put up the numbers she culturally impacted it doesn't make any
sense and like to even take the conversation away from me again like let's just be accurate like the
weekend had the biggest year of his life little baby little baby has had the most impactful fucking rap career since fucking drake
his trajectory is doesn't make sense his trajectory is some shit we haven't seen before
this is not accurate bro it doesn't make sense bro it just doesn't damn man it's not till i hear it
it's not till i hear your voice just that i'm that i that i feel the way man because I'm disconnected from it it doesn't
really affect me either way but when I hear you and that passion and hunger and just the outright
knowing when something is wrong yeah man I get it bro bro like I I mean I've talked I've called
made I made every single call this morning like you know like when you go through down the fucking
checklist of things that you need for the Grammys bro bro what makes this shit worse is like fuck the business and like and raising your price bro
from an artist's perspective bro it's hard it's hard enough to get summer to believe in
you know like trying to do things that you know appease the industry that in itself is a fucking
challenge right and when you finally when you finally get an artist to do the things that they
need to do quote unquote for the grammys bro like to get somewhere to move it costs money we
do we we have done certain just to appease these for free and then you still get the slap
bro that's what i'm saying like there's an agenda there's somebody in there that's really saying yo
we are not going to give this girl something for a reason i don't know what that reason is granted
some of you know a lot of but it doesn't matter it doesn't take
away from the fucking music is it about the music or not yeah well she definitely said
well listen yeah that uh not that it means anything to you but yeah we we think she should
be nominated yeah no not nominated when yeah we think she should win nominated. Yeah. No, not nominated. Win. Yeah, we think she should win.
Yeah.
Damn, man.
And it's fucked up because I really was calling to tease you because now that Summer's pregnant,
I don't think we get an album.
But this Grammy nom is off.
This takes precedence.
So I'm not going to tease you today.
No, we're still working, bro.
Yeah, I know.
I know that's what you guys say when they get pregnant.
No, no, no, no, no.
I totally understand.
No, no, she's still in the studio.
She's working.
No, she's a workhorse.
No, bro, I've been in Atlanta for the last two months, bro.
You know they do that.
I'll say workhorse to me.
Am I lying, though?
Of course not.
Just know they do it.
Nah, nah, they all do that.
But fuck, man.
This shit, bro, this shit really has gut in my spirit bro
like i'm not even gonna hold you bro like like not just her bro like everybody else involved
you know like all the all the fucking contributors you know i'm saying like bro how is she feeling
yeah that that was my next question how's she doing oh we can't afford for her to feel the way
no i mean you know something's different she was just like bro like i can't afford for her to feel the way. No, I mean, you know, something's different. She was just like, bro, like, I can't believe you actually even, like, care.
She's like, bro, I don't suck dick.
And they were never going to give me anything.
So I don't know why you care so much.
That's her take.
That next album about to be super crazy now.
Word.
And then that third album when she leaves, dude, oh, my God.
Don't say that.
Look what you're putting into you.
I'm just saying if it happens, all right.
Okay.
God forbid.
God forbid.
They have a child coming. No, God forbid. Yeah. God forbid. God forbid. They have a child coming.
No, God forbid.
God forbid.
How are y'all doing, though?
I mean, how do y'all feel about, I mean, let's take the bias, the biasness of my fucking
tone.
Like, you know, the little baby conversation, the weekend conversation.
No, Summer absolutely deserved to be nominated, but I think her album was the best R&B album
of the year.
Little Baby, for sure. Roddy Ricch wrap up in the year they i like a lot of it i like you know
they showed a lot of love to underground hip-hop stuff so i love it and lyricists but there you
know there's a couple like how yeah how is this not here no it just shows the politics you ain't
gonna tell you know how we feel about it.
They're not even trying to hide the politics.
But this don't even...
Rory, I'll be with you, but this doesn't make sense.
Politically, bro, to not fucking give The Weeknd a fucking nod,
politically doesn't make sense.
Oh, no, I'm saying there's some politics on why.
I don't know what they are, but there's no reason he shouldn't be up there.
So it's clearly an issue between the Grammy board and The Weeknd or his team or his camp or his label or something.
Because that's a politic.
He's winning everything else.
I don't know what that issue is, but there has to be one.
Is he not nominated for anything?
I don't see it.
I don't think anything at all.
That's insane.
And whatever that December was, was number one for fucking six months.
Bro, no offense, but fucking de-smoke, my nigga. Like fucking six months bro no offense but fucking D Smoke
my nigga like come on no offense
Justice
Roddy Rich

Roddy Rich
I love D Smoke I think he's a fucking talented artist but like Roddy Ricch, bro. And congratulations. Roddy Ricch. I love D Smoke.
I love D Smoke.
I think he's a fucking talented artist.
But like, Roddy Ricch had the fucking summer rocking.
I'm with you, bro. We agree.
We agree on that.
We agree on that.
Yeah, well, D Smoke had Netflix rocking.
Take that, bitch.
I mean, if they would have had a best performance in a TV show, D Smoke would be out.
Listen, we are not carrying on this Grammy conversation for this long.
We know what time it is.
We see it every year.
Kanye pissed on the Grammy.
Y'all got mad at him.
I didn't.
Listen, what do you want me to do?
Drake eats cereal out the Grammy
or whatever the cool kids are doing.
They're telling you
what they think about the Grammy.
So every year,
it's like the freshman cover
for XXL.
I'm not doing this
every time it comes out.
Hey, what are they doing?
We know what they're doing.
We still don't know
what they're doing.
And if they're not doing that,
then they're pandering to what they
should be doing. They don't tell me that they're
actually going to do what the fuck they should be doing.
Sorry that they toy with our
emotions this way, but there's even a business in that.
So I'm not investing in it.
I feel for you that you're investing in it,
but yeah, I don't give a fuck about this.
Hey, Joe.
All I got to say is that
we got to pick one award show next year
I'm getting all my niggas
We're going to the Soul Train Awards
And we're gonna make this shit hot
Every single artist
We're gonna fucking plan a weekend out

Yeah, my guy, Jess, man. He said, yo, love y'all. Bye feel the way he said bye. Yeah, my guy, Chess, man.
He said, yo, love y'all.
Bye.
Goodbye.
He said bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
You're going through it when you say bye-bye.
Absolutely.
Oh, man, I feel bad now.
Yeah.
Well, they got smoked.
They'll be just fine.
But, yeah, I feel bad, too.
I understand what he's saying.
Yeah, but it can affect you.
And if it don't affect you, it could affect your team.
Like you feel like your team, y'all work so hard.
Even if the artists don't care because you condition yourself to not care or expect the worst.
But your team might feel slighted.
Like that's a lot of fucks you that goes on into that.
Yeah, a lot of work.
And from a business perspective, yeah, it adds a lot of value to your brand when do you have that next to it this is P from quality
control saying whoever's making the decisions at the Grammys you all
disconnected like a motherfucker you don't speak for our culture congrats to
all the nominees hashtag my turn album of the year like imagine how he feels
busting his ass investing his money all this shit into little baby to have the
best year ever and then this happened like I get it.
Nicki,
Nicki chimes in,
never forget the Grammys
didn't give me
my best new artist award
when I had seven songs
simultaneously charting
on Billboard
in a bigger first week
than any female rapper
in the last decade.
Went on to inspire
an entire generation.
They gave it to the white man
Bon Iver.
Hashtag Pink Friday.
She is not wrong at all.
I remember that one too.
I do remember the Jay-Z Grammy shit that Justice spoke about.
Like, we've seen this a bunch.
Yeah.
Why do we expect these people to do things differently is beyond me.
So with Kendrick early in his career, this isn't anything new.
And even the Biebs is upset.
Wait, what did the Biebs say?
He said to the Grammys I'm
flattered to be acknowledged and appreciated for my artistry I'm very meticulous and intentional
about my music with that being said I set out to make an R&B album changes was and is an R&B album
it is not being acknowledged as an R&B album which is very strange to me not strange to me uh JB
nor do I yeah I grew up admiring R&b music and wished to make a project that would
embody that sound for this not to be put into that category feels weird considering from the chords
to the melodies to the vocal style all the way down to the hip-hop drums that were chosen it is
undeniably unmistakable an r&b album to be clear i absolutely love pop music and it just wasn't
what i set out to make this time
around my gratitude for feeling respected for my work remains and i'm honored to be nominated in
uh either way that was very well put this work beeps yeah should be well put when you white
black a black dude could say that same polite message, and it's going to be, oh, he's salty.
I don't know, Justin.
He's salty as well, but this is well said.
Yeah, he had enough features on his album to be R&B.
Had he been in the R&B album of the year category, I would have been like, no.
But that shouldn't pop.
Because of who he is or because of the sound of the album?
Who he is.
Who he is, number one. And it the album who he is who he is number one
and it was more of an R&B
I see what he's saying
from that album
if Taylor Swift puts out
a rap album this year
you're gonna call it
a rap album
and yeah
if she's rapping on it
yeah
then why wouldn't it be
a rap album
because it's her
if the music is
if it's hip hop drums
and melodies
and samples
and she's rapping
that's a rap album
she's not
I wouldn't say she's a rapper,
but it's a rap album.
If Scooter Braun has the rights
to Taylor Swift,
the MC.
MC Swifty?
That's good.
Another big waiver wire mistake
I made this year.
Now that my fantasy season
is down the drain,
all my waiver wire mistakes
are highlighted
like right in front of my eyes.
That D Swift,
the running back
from Detroit.
I saw him there.
Didn't do it.
Look at me now.
Look at me now.
No artist development.
Four and seven.
Four and seven.
That's the same record
as the Giants, right?
What are the Giants?
Three and eight?
Three.
That's somewhere there.
I don't know.
Not good. Not good. Right on, there. I don't know. Not good.
Not good.
Right on, Brian.
I know.
So, yeah, man.
Did we say West Side Paris?
Because I thought that should have been nominated.
That should have been nominated.
It's one of the Griselda albums.
Definitely should have been.
I think that one specifically.
Fam, we are now 50 minutes in.
It's over.
Okay.
It's over.
Why don't you break down the AMAs for us?
We don't care.
I think all of Law should be here, too, Joe.
I just don't think it made the cycle.
No, you submitted too late.
I didn't submit, Roy.
My bad, my bad.
That's the only reason I didn't win.
I like how you boycotted.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, so now I'm just not showing up no more.
All right.
Just quickly, quickly, because they do do comedy albums and all that shit for Grammys, right?
Yeah.
I don't understand how podcasts are not.
It's a recorded thing.
I think that's...
Wait, they made up a new category.
Best melodic rapper.
We breezed right over that one.
Best melodic rapper?
Yeah, that should be in there.
Rap is melodic.
It should.
I'm not mad at that.
No, we spoke about this one.
Oh, we didn't.
On air, we didn't.
But yeah, my pick for this would probably be Rockstar.
You're just going to pick Rockstar for everything, huh?
That's a big fucking record.
That's a big record.
Roddy twice.
And you relate to all the rock stars.
DaBaby, St. John.
Post Below.
You.
Right there.
See where Maul at?
Right there.
See where Maul at.
You got reflectors on your sweats.
You might be a rock star now.
He wants to jog at night.
Maul is the hippest dressing single dude I've ever seen, man.
This nigga really does it for himself.
I do it for the people, too.
Oh, not for the people, huh?
My bad.
Shut up, bro.
Yeah.
For the people.
Best melodic dresser.
Hey, Rory.
Relax, all right?
No, Rockstar probably went that.
And podcasts should be in this
because it is a recorded platform.
Agreed.
I think that's coming soon.
It's not a streamed radio thing.
This is recorded the same way
anything else is.
Listen, we got the BET Awards.
But I understand.
Give it to the Breakfast Club.
Let me save myself.
Yeah. NPR won that one for sure
Yeah
Y'all keep shitting on people
That probably really love y'all
I love NPR
Who am I shitting on?
NPR

Look at my face
I don't know
This is a person who listens to NPR

I don't know if Snow's album

She didn't submit? Yeah, she missed it.
Didn't submit.
Alright, well, that's Grammy.
It's Grammys
for you. What's next?
Same old shit, basically.
But there was some good nominations.
Oh, Saint is all nominated
for Roses. Yeah, like a
Best International Remix or something. Very specific. Yeah, I think he should win that one. for Roses. Yeah, like a Best International Remix or something very specific.
Yeah, I think he should win that one.
That Roses remix was huge.
All right, so.
Snow, just keep getting mail.
So Grammy night, damn right, you're going to get dressed up, right, Moe?
No, Rory, I will not.
I will have on pajamas.
Okay.
Not getting dressed up at home, no.

Not at all.
Not even close.
But what would you wear?

Another Rory Ox moment here.
What you got for us?
Getting into my heritage, man.
Just my children and my wife.
This is a sick song.
What is happening?
It's a sick-ass song. This is a song you. What is happening? It's a sick-ass song.
This is a song you hear when you walk in that gas station on I-95.
This is when you're smoking fake name-brand cigarettes outside of the gas station in rural America.
I just typed in Proud to be American.
Roy, can you turn this off?
Please.
You've got to drink Mountain Dew when you listen to that.
Don't ever play a song again.
Dick Clark created the American music.
Oh, look at that.
All right.
Rest in peace to the proud of the American.
Did you maximize that?
I didn't.
Did you maximize that?
All right, I'm done with the AMAs.
I don't care.
Google it.
Oh, they just did it to clap back at CBS for getting the Grammys.
That's what AMAs did?
Killed the clap back.
That's why it was created, apparently, according to Wikipedia.
Oh, so that was beef.
This was built on beef.
Yeah.
Oh, we might have to start watching AMAs.
That was the first versus?
Yeah, the Grammys versus the AMAs.
Yeah, I'm cool.
I'm cool on the AMAs.
David Chappelle.
Back again.
He did it.
Yet again.
Listen, every time I think I come in here
and there's absolutely nothing to talk about,
the universe just universes.
That was just stuffing.
There's raisins in there?
Yeah.
No, you can't do that.
She was there for you at a vulnerable time.
You should forever be grateful.
You playing right now.
No, she was. I was a sick bunch of
She was up to you
When your foot was broke
You shaping the narrative
We were gonna talk about
The Dave Chappelle
Special
The 20 minute special
He dropped on Instagram
Addressing his
Netflix release
The Netflix release
Of his show
But then behind the scenes
We got to talking about
A young lady telling me
She was the reason
I still have two feet
In the text
And I had no idea What the fuck She was talking about so I said yo the fuck
are you talking about and then she reminded me she was the person that she
wasn't a podiatrist and she stopped fucking with she stopped fucking me when
I'll be on says album dropped well I mean It was one of those. Like, lemonade changed things for me.
I hate when albums drop.
They give bitches strength.
Yeah.
And understanding.
I can identify so much.
I got to stop living like this.
Oh, he's using me too.
Well, I don't know.
Did you listen to the outro?
She got back with him.
No, they never make it that far.
She never left dude.
But yeah, she's talking about because she came over
and allegedly took care of me
when my foot was broken.
There's no alleged.
And here come you now.
She came over and she helped.
She helped.
She was a helping hand
in time of need.
That's all I'm saying.
Is she the reason I have two feet?
No, that's a stretch.
Thank you.
I'm just saying she was a helping hand
in time of need.
And I appreciate it.
Yeah, absolutely.
As you should.
You did what any friend should do.
Absolutely.
Stand up guy you are, Joe.
See, but I can't play with you like that, right?
Who was there for me in the time of need?
I never broke my foot.
The birder.
That was the only time you were in need?
Yeah.
As if you break your foot.
I used to have some wild chicks come over for your needs.
Would you like me to share?
No.
Because I can't.
I can't.
Sometimes they were friends. It was a while. It was a while. I was like, oh, you didn't bring her with you this me to share? No. Because I can't. I can't. Sometimes they were friends.
It was a while.
It was a while.
I was like, oh, you didn't bring her with you this time, huh?
Oh, you're alone this trip.
Yeah, no.
Yeah, no.
All right.
Come on.
Let's get to it.
Dave Chappelle.
Dave is not telling jokes anymore at this point.
He's just going through a
rough time. I love it.
It's not a rough time. I think it's a
prosperous time.
Well, not rough in the sense of he's hurting.
Rough in the sense of
his art is being...
Oh, sure.
Do y'all know chicks are sharing our dick pics?
Yeah. I said that last week.
You just got here?
For real?
Yeah.
You got to send it to the right person and the other one that you really want to see
it is here.
So y'all have to wear that.
Y'all knew that.
Yeah, you got to know who's in our group chat.
I thought it was still like some sacredness between us.
Oh, Joe send girls his dick pic and say, for your eyes only.
You definitely the for your eyes only nigga.
You want to mark your shit? He's sharing his little eyes only nigga. You want to mark your shit?
Can you share this little secret with me?
You want to mark your shit?
Yeah, you want to mark your shit.
With the Shave Room logo, not his.
Yeah.
Yo, what is wrong with y'all, man?
For your eyes only.
For your eyes.
You can't be that naive.
Between me and you.
Joe, you put the cover your eye emoji
before you send the dick pic?
I can't believe I just sent this.
Yeah, y'all are funny today.
No, it just dawned on me that that was happening.
I had no idea.
Because that's what chicks are doing on the chatty house.
They just posting nigga shit on apps.
Oh, shit.
Oh, I didn't see that.
Oh, no, that's going too far, ladies.
No, come on now.
That's where you draw the line?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Don't just start sending the nigga to the app.
To the chat house?
Don't put my dick on the chatty house.
Yeah, don't do that.
Please don't do that.
Especially after some of these other dicks y'all put up there.
Please.
Have some respect.
Wait, wait.
You bitches is nasty.
Wait, wait.
I don't know what just happened.
You felt a little intimidated?
That's a nice one.
I tried to get us away from it.
I'm trying to throw it to Dave.
No, listen, man.
Joe enlarged the avi and was like, whoa.
I cannot compete.
You can't compete with that guy.
I understand why you be talking this way on the clubhouse.
You're going to double back to me and talk about Joe, send it.
No.
I just saw your avi.
Not now.
It's like following up kids.
Where did you meet that man?
I'm a good listener, though.
Holy shit. What is wrong with y'all man
that's funny
I walked in the room
the other day
bitches start calling some nigga
Curve Gotti
oh my
okay
I was like
I'm leaving
this is nasty
and y'all are disgusting
when I finally figured out
what was happening
in her defense that's pretty funny.
That's hilarious.
Curve Gotti.
That is disgusting.
That's hilarious.
All right.
David Chappelle.
David.
Oh, man.
Dave Chappelle does it again.
Yesterday afternoon, right before we came to this podcast, when there was nothing to talk about, Dave dropped some shit and the Grammy noms happened.
Both of those things occurred and I was like, yes.
So Dave did a 20 minute special that he dropped on his Instagram page.
Where he addressed Netflix releasing the Dave Chappelle show.
where he addressed Netflix releasing the Dave Chappelle show.
And it was awesome.
I don't have a long diatribe for you guys to say, hey, I agree.
Y'all know I agree.
Look at Dave with the Greg Lauren on.
Come on.
He was getting the Greg.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on, man.
Joe Sauce is everywhere out there.
Or it's Greg Lauren Sauce.
That's Joe Sauce. But it was good. It was good. It Greg Lawrence sauce. That's Joe sauce.
But it was good.
It was good. It was really good.
Dave's a genius.
Yada, yada, yada.
All the shit I come in here and say all the time.
But man, was this great.
And I do enjoy what the transition comedians are doing from telling jokes to telling stories.
Like the good storytellers, I'm really feeling this.
This was awesome.
Yeah.
You guys watched it?
I did. feeling this. This was awesome. Yeah. You guys watched it? I did.
I did.
And for those that haven't watched it, Dave kind of went through his journey from a young comedian up until the Chappelle show and discussed his deal with Comedy Central and how he kind of signed his life away.
And then they went to Netflix, which is his partner now, which he's gotten a fair amount of money with.
And they started streaming it along with HBO Max,
and he said, fuck out of here.
Y'all are stealing from me.
I don't care that I signed that contract.
That's my intellectual property.
You are not about to profit off of it without me.
And Netflix, he said, was a great partner
and said, we didn't know you felt that way.
We will take it down right now.
Well, no, even better than that,
he said, this makes me feel like shit.
Yeah.
He didn't accost them. He said, this makes me feel like shit. Yeah. He didn't, you know, accost them.
He said, this makes me feel like shit.
And we do business together.
A few weeks ago, I came in here and said, that's odd.
Yeah.
I said, that's weird.
It's strange that he would allow that to happen,
especially after that Saturday Night Live when he made the joke,
hey, I'm not getting paid for any of this stuff.
Yeah.
I was like, oh, okay.
I don't think he'll stand for that. He's too profitable. He's too important to Netflix. Yeah. I'm not getting paid for any of this stuff. I was like, oh, okay.
I don't think he'll stand for that.
He's too profitable.
He's too important to Netflix.
Yeah.
He spoke about being on the right and wrong side of deals and just didn't matter that I signed it out of desperation
and it was fucked up
and I didn't understand the language at the time
being a 29-year-old father of an expecting child.
I signed it because I needed to but today should you be
able to make money off of my off of my creation in perpetuity and me not participate legally yes
there's nothing wrong morally nah nah not at all doesn't feel the greatest he said he called his
agent tried to see if there was anything that he could do.
His agent said no, so he's coming to the fans.
Coming to the fans to say if we love him,
if we care about him, if he's ever made us laugh,
if he's ever brought us even a morsel of joy,
that we should not watch the Dave Chappelle show
on the DSPs that stream it.
Until they share in...
Until they pay him. Yeah until until they pay them yeah until they pay them
now legally do they have to pay them no but it seems like you should
want to make this right yeah well yeah it shows the difference between a short-sighted
yeah well yeah it shows the difference between a short-sighted quick money grab and a long-term relationship with a genius creator you know netflix has done what maybe four chapelle specials
now three something like that yeah they've had they've had a run together um and have only said
that they're going to continue i'd like to keep that person happy and make them said that they're going to continue, I'd like to keep that person happy
and make them feel like they have a morally sound partner.
So yeah, I'm not going to take the quick, short-sighted,
let me throw the Chappelle show up on Netflix and stream it.
No, I'd rather make the person that I want to continue on
with a business relationship with happy.
It's just crazy.
So yeah, let me take this down right away
because that's a quick, short-sighted buck.
We're trying to do business
together for a long time
I feel more
like a genius
when I watch the geniuses
and I understand them
and that's the feeling
I get every time
I see Dave Chappelle
it's a very narcissistic
genius thing
but I feel you
no I really do
I mean it's a fact
I get it
even excluding the genius thing you know i related to
a lot of this but like talking at the beginning about selling off a joke for 50 bucks and then
talking about how he went on his first tour and came back with 60 bucks but his rent was paid
like i've been there yeah i mean he did the same way a joke premise is set up without a joke yeah
like he set up the premise and metaphor, if you will,
for everything that he's went through in his life
from being 14 as a stand-up
comedian to signing
a huge deal with Comedy Central for one of the greatest shows
of all time. And how those two things
are connected and exactly alike.
I don't want y'all to step on my
amazing point that I'm making.
Because yes, you can
understand what he's talking about
when he's talking about it because that's the greatness of Dave Chappelle
for sure I'm talking about understanding why it's done understanding why certain
things are done and unless you get to the point where a network or anybody out
there is coming to offer you that type of money 50 million dollars
and it makes sense for you to walk away from it says something that's what i'm talking about the
action yeah and i don't care how much all these clout chasing niggas out here talk that ain't
happening it's not that's not that's not that's not common practice. Yeah, people not walking away from that chat. All around the board.
Like when he got into talking about the interests of the shareholders at different places, boy, did I feel him.
And I don't have to tell you all I felt him because I did all my Spotify ranting.
You've seen this documented.
Go look it up.
It's on YouTube.
It's on Google.
Google it.
YouTube it's on Google Google it um and he started talking about why he wouldn't go from maybe one place to another because it shouldn't matter if the plantation is treating you nicer over there
like boy did I just relate and identify to so much of the shit that that he's saying and it
sucks when the geniuses that we look up to all have this story.
And it's being circulated now.
Like, look how great you got to be to even have this story.
Dave Chappelle, Viola Davis, Shonda Rhimes.
The list goes on and on.
Steve Harvey, Nick Cannon.
I do this all the time.
I don't need to go down the list.
Monique was one of the first ones.
There's too many greats.
There's too many greats.
It's unfortunate, though,
because you look at a guy
like Dave Chappelle
and all he's accomplished
and he's still having
this type of fight.
So if you're a young...
Well, the fight is never ending.
That's what I'm saying.
So if you're a young
creator, comic,
and you're coming up now,
you're looking at a guy like Dave Chappelle,
who's obviously your idol,
if that's what you do.
And it has to send a certain message like,
damn,
I'm in for a fight.
Do you know how many deals we've,
all of us here,
well,
you probably don't,
but I'll tell you.
Do you know how many deals all of us here as a collective have almost had?
Probably not because I don't come here and share it. Because like, yeah, but there's been a lot of them.
And there's been a lot of them like that made sense.
And there's been a lot of them that paid pretty well.
And there's been some of those marriages that had we took them.
Boy, would we have shook the building?
that had we took them,
boy, would we have shook the building.
There were some of these places where the entire universe there
was excited about our arrival.
And it only takes one investor,
one shareholder to not get it,
to see things differently,
to not sign off on the approval to not get why this shit
should cost this much and guess what it's not my job to come explain it to anybody
i'm not here to convince people the same way dave spoke about hbo streaming his shit and him
uh pardon me about uh hbo streaming his shit and had the claws in there.
Oh, no, him pitching the show.
Him pitching the Chappelle show to HBO before Comedy Central and them turning it down.
Saying, what do we need you for?
And then streaming the show.
It's like you always got to go prove a concept for the people to figure out that they need you a little bit and
then not want you to participate boy is it nasty it is nasty so sometimes you just got to say no
to some shit because that's what feels correct but i mean that's why that's what leads you to
sleep at night my bad go ahead that's that's why i like the chapelle story because i mean if you
were around in oh four oh five or whenever that third season was starting chapelle
show was the the greatest most craziest show on earth like it had every type of buzz you could
think when it came to a tv show and he had 50 million dollar offer and he left said no then
they try to tarnish his name say he was smoking crack and went to Africa. All like just complete fucking lies. The stuff that they do.
Yeah, the smear campaign.
And usually how that story ends is it would be over for Dave Chappelle.
And everyone would judge him and say, yo, you couldn't handle the pressure.
You left when he was the hottest.
Like, wow, what a disappointing story.
That just proves that talent will always be greater than whatever Viacom or whatever company that exists.
If it's combined with perseverance, because a lot of people will take this and hide away.
Oh, for sure.
And Chappelle did and got his mind right and realized exactly what he wanted to do.
And now, from my understanding of reports, I don't know what his pockets actually are,
is doing insanely well money-wise and living the life that he wanted to live.
He seems happier than ever.
Yeah, but you never make a move based on the money.
And a guy like Dave Chappelle, going back to when he-
Oh, stop it.
They all are doing it.
They all are making moves based off the money, Mark.
No, I'm just saying the ones that are in a position where Dave Chappelle is. The top of the top.
They don't do that anymore because it's not about that.
Well, I'm sure because you are right.
You shouldn't make moves based off money, desperation, whatever it is.
But I can understand in season two, season three for him and getting $50 million, not just for you.
Fuck thinking about you.
Your family.
Your whole team.
Your friends. Everyone that's involved,
everyone that is employed by the show. Yeah, that's some pressure where maybe I'm not going
to move for the money, but I might have to for everyone around me. My parents will be fine
forever. My kids should be good. It's an easy decision I think a lot of people would make
because so many of the people they care for
would be taken care of at that point.
And that's a pressure that I don't take away from people
when they have to make these decisions.
I respect that he didn't,
but I can totally see how someone could.
No, absolutely.
And some people do.
But when you create an art and you're an artist and, you know...
Even when you say that,
it sounds like you understate his genius.
I can totally see how some people could. No, common what you're saying is normal i'm not saying
it's not i'm just saying when you're an artist like dave is and someone puts a tag on your art
and you know in your mind and your heart that this is worth way more than that
it's easy for you to walk away from it because you understand it now people on the outside
who work a nine to five and they're like shit i would have took it i would yeah that's why you
are who you are and he is who he is he understands the value of his art he understands if you look
at early dave chappelle series now shit he was doing years ago was relevant today yeah you know
what i'm saying so it's like he's an artist that understands that sure 50 million
is a lot of money not what i'm worth though not what i'm worth yeah i agree i'm saying not what
i'm worth that's a more difficult decision than i think people and it was probably other stipulations
maybe this is what i'm worth but i don't want to do it with you right oh that too that's another
what i mean like yeah that too because because I guess my point more is the Monday morning quarterback shit.
Now, 17 years later after the Chappelle show, I see everyone like, yeah, Dave, he didn't take that.
That's what I would have done, this and that.
Nah, y'all are making this sound a lot easier than you think it is because you've never been offered $50 million.
I know we've seen 17 years later can't speak 17 years later how he's
prospered through that entire thing but that's not an easy decision as a 30 year old with a kid
with a family with a staff with a fam like a parents like yeah yeah that's a tough decision
to make i know everyone thinks that they now because independence is champion so much and i
love that but it also adds on that fact that everyone thinks that they now because independence is champion so much and I love that
but it also adds on
that fact that
everyone's like
yeah now I turned down
the 100 mil
because I know.
No you don't.
You've never been offered that.
Yeah that's another thing too.
Some people say
yeah I would have took that
but you would have took less.
Some people would have took five.
I think 99% of the people
would have taken
the Spotify deal
they offered us.
I know I'm waiting
for people to say
that Dave Chappelle
is a bad businessman
and negotiator. Nobody's going to say that. Somebody know. I'm waiting for people to say that Dave Chappelle is a bad businessman and negotiator.
Nobody's going to say that.
Somebody should.
No, because they've seen the results.
That's why I'm saying this Monday morning quarterback shit.
The same people that said after the whole Spotify shit we went through and had choice words for it,
in 2004 they would have said the same shit about Chappelle.
Well, Dave Chappelle is saying the same thing.
When he got to that part about, hey, you guys go downstairs to accounting.
You look at what you earned, and then you look at what you paid me.
Boy, did I feel that in my soul.
I felt that spiritually.
See, because I never ask for the numbers anywhere.
I don't need to ask y'all for the numbers because I'm an impact guy.
I'm a culture guy.
No, I feel it when it's happening.
I don't have to go.
Y'all go look at the numbers.
You'll never show them to me.
You'll never show them to us.
You go look at them and do your own due diligence and do the right thing.
You think they ever come back and do the right thing?
I sit on the phone for hours with these guys.
Executives, high-level executives.
And they say, well say well hey if it's
not the money that that dictates how you move then what is it and i tell them straight up every time
hey i'm on the side of what's right and wrong i just need to know who's evil i'm not telling you
what to do i just need to know who's evil well what do you mean uh what do you mean evil who's
the evil people oh no no no white people don't trick me that way because i'm not talking about white people i'm talking about evil people
because if i make you a hundred million and you won't give me three we off we way off and in the
bigger lesson here the bigger lesson with dave or the lesson, because I think last week I came in here and said, man, if y'all just stop, if y'all just sit and try to be creative and stop trying to buy your way to a fucking dime every time, you might think of something.
So here comes Dave to say to his partner, big, big, big corporation with all the money.
Hey, when you're doing this and it makes me feel uneasy and uncomfortable i don't
feel good about it dave the creator the company recognizing how important that is says we got you
don't worry about it take it down don't matter how profitable it is they take it down you know
what that means to me all that shit he was uh leading up to an end it sounds like he's saying
hey either this is going to happen or i'm just going to come with a new show.
I'm going to recreate my show and I'm going to bring it.
Stop playing with me.
It's mine.
I'm the creator.
Now, wait, wait, Maul.
What happens when Dave Chappelle today
in all his newfound notoriety and fame
and stardom and geniusness
recreates his show with this turmoil
and brings it to his business partner
who understood the value and making sure that the creator feels good.
We will support it.
That's the part that these companies keep missing.
Hey, right here.
Bring it in.
That's the part.
I'm not going to tell you all to value that because if you don't know how to value it, it ain't my job to teach you.
And I don't need to be well-versed in tech to get that.
I like to throw that word.
I don't need to be well-versed like this is a moral clause thing.
Anywhere I am, I want to know how y'all feel about black people, how y'all treat black people, and if you're for the betterment of black people.
Shout out to all my black people out there.
Simple. people shout out to all my black people out there simple and I'm having that conversation all around
the fucking board it's a shame it's sickening how many white people I have to have this conversation
with it's sickening how many of my black geniuses I got to see say they have the exact same struggle
and dilemma what was my other point about uh a home a home a home a home a home
damn i had a point about a home i wonder if it oh what happens when that show drops on netflix
tell me it goes insane oh yeah we support it the internet breaks like a jt picture dropped
absolutely absolutely and that's the thing
the people don't understand dave he's one of those people that people genuinely love and support they
will follow him they will support him we trust him trust it's like back in the day some movies
used to come out and and talking about it you know the next what the blockbusters come out and talking about it, you know, the next one, the blockbusters come out, the next question is,
well, who's in it?
And depending on who was in it,
sometimes you could say,
oh, he don't take a bad role.
Yeah.
Oh, he's great with the scripts.
Yeah.
The writing might be,
the act,
this one is going to,
all-star cast.
Sometimes,
depending on the name said,
you knew the business
that was attached.
That's where Dave is
for me right now when you see
him it's a moment when you see him it's important he didn't have to say a word i think he chain
smoked in this shit i loved it but when you see him he has something to say i love it man
i dm'd him on instagram did you respond no I just did it two hours ago. Oh, okay. Geniuses keep geniusing.
Boy, was he inspiring to me.
And watching my fellow brethren get fucked.
And going to the fans.
It's awesome, man.
Yeah.
I don't know if this is comedy.
I don't know if it's comedy.
What a storyteller this guy is.
It's art.
Yeah.
It's art. He. It's art.
He's one of the most,
he might be the most
important artist
that we have right now.
He's top of the list
for sure.
I can't think of someone
who I,
every time,
will click no matter what
and have not been
disappointed for this long.
Yeah.
No,
it's consistency.
No matter what he's doing.
Because even with the George Floyd thing he did on...
Was that on YouTube or on IG?
I think it was YouTube.
Yeah, of where it wasn't...
This isn't a comedy bit.
I'm just a really intelligent person
with an amazing point of view
that needs to be heard right now.
Like, the things I would do as a company
just to be in his good graces.
Right.
See, but that's a luxury that he's afforded.
He's worked himself there.
Like.
And took the risk to be there.
Yeah, everyone is not afforded this type of privilege.
And even though he's in this position of getting fucked, there's still a little bit of privilege attached.
There's also the leverage that a company
will know you'll leave.
We know Dave
turning down that $50 million from
Comedy Central. We know Dave
will leave. So you need to keep
me happy. There's plenty of people that
have been in business forever and how they want to
do business is their business.
But companies do know
they're not going to leave.
We'll give them an extra mil and they'll be fine fucking creators do it but they never leave dave has that leverage of
that it's not even a mystique it's a fact dave will leave here if he's not happy you better keep
him happy if you want to be in business with him i think that comes from taking a risk i think bigger
than that not only will he leave i think he's proven that i'll leave and i will be even better and bigger than i was when i
left here just fucking fine so you know yeah companies definitely should keep dave and happy
it's not about money it's about it sounds it all sounds familiar yeah Yeah. Damn it.
It's a reoccurring story.
It all sounds familiar is how it sounds to me.
I just told Ian a few days ago.
I said, Ian.
I said, as crazy as this is going to sound,
boy, am I happy that I've walked away from all of these millions and millions of dollars.
Not because it wouldn't be nice to have them,
but just because it's important to let the evil people know or the other people know that you will.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You got to feel good about what you're doing.
It's like when they keep telling Ben Simmons to take the jump shot.
Shoot it.
Just shoot it.
It don't matter if you miss it.
Airball.
70 airballs in a row we just
need to know you'll do it they don't see that enough yeah i'm i'm proud of that i am you got
to let somebody know that they can't punch you in the face when that whole the whole history in
business which you talked about a little bit too, is just punching you in the face, doing whatever the fuck they want, acting like you had their back in mercy.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
This is the discount that I'm showing you.
It's not for you to chop it in half.
Because that's what's normal after I say something, you say something, you chop it in half, you bring it back to me.
Now I bring it up halfway into that.
And now you bring it down with a new clause over there with a new property that doesn't exist yet.
Nigga, what? No. up halfway into that and now you bring it down with a new clause over there with a new property that doesn't exist yet so nigga what no yo it's so normal in that world that half yo and there's
a such thing as negotiation fatigue now i'm on a rant what absolutely i'm on a rant now you have
driven me so crazy for the last six months of nonsense that now I'm looking at Ian saying, man, just get something done.
That's it.
I'm just tired.
Yeah.
I'm just tired
of going back and forth with people.
I always have to embrace myself
before a day of negotiation.
I need to clear my schedule.
I need to chill out,
get a pack of cigs,
whatever,
do whatever I got to do,
go work out,
get in the zone
because I know it's going to be exhausting.
It might be an hour conversation.
The habits and the verbiage be so nuts.
Midway through the process, you'll scratch your head like,
am I off?
Are they right?
One of the biggest negotiation tactics
is to do the months of just bullshit,
and then you finally feel like you're getting to a place
and say there's a deadline.
The week of or a few days before they will completely change everything knowing that
you're exhausted it's like yo let's just get this shit done right that's that's a standard 101
negotiation shit let's change everything 24 hours before this deadline because i know they'll take
it because they're exhausted and just want to get it done that's a standard negotiation tactic
you'll talk to and then you'll see things and then you see things through the process.
They'll smack the shit out of you again because they say and do things that basically say to you, you have nothing.
You have nothing and you come from nothing.
Why wouldn't you take this?
why wouldn't you take this?
Because some of us,
pardon me,
are not just cool with getting fucked in the ass with no lube.
Some of us are not just moving that way.
If you don't have enough fiber.
They didn't even use lube on you, my guy?
They had a, yes. They didn't even get you wet?
They had a glove.
I feel like we already got two Clonics in a week before.
And now I don't remember where I was,
but it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter
because y'all don't need
a long rant from us.
We stand on this.
And this type of move
ain't for anybody either.
Some of you niggas
take what they offer.
Some of you niggas can't just be throwing the office upside down.
No, that's what you're worth.
Take that.
More is not wrong.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Some of you are worth what they put on the table.
Yeah.
Some of y'all shouldn't fuck yourselves over.
Yeah.
Take that deal.
I think that's important.
Because a lot of y'all are smoking mirrors.
Yeah.
Y'all not really talented.
But that's neither here nor there.
Yeah. Watch this Chappelle thing on his Instagram.
It's 20 minutes.
We even left out some of the great parts.
I don't want to completely ruin it because I think that standard practice thing with hiring his lawyers and everyone being on the same team is a whole nother conversation that we could really get into right now.
A lot of y'all that used to yell at Meg the Stallion, why didn't you just get a lawyer, should watch this.
And us.
Because everybody is, yeah, that too.
Everybody is on the same team.
That standard practice is even good for your lawyer that has your best interest because they keep working.
Yeah.
And then to see what Dave became, man, man.
Well, not what he became because he's always been this, like he said, he started out great.
Definitely did. Like being great at 15 or however old he was, man.'s always been this, like he said, he started out great. Definitely did.
Being great at 15 or however old he was, man.
Dave is just such an inspiration to me.
Dave, Dave, call me, man.
Like, what the fuck?
Enough is enough.
Call me too, Dave.
Hold on, where's my phone?
All right, maybe I am number one on the industry list.
Do you have his number?
Where's my phone?
No, but I only feel like, look at Erickson thinking we're about to get a juicy moment.
A juicy moment.
Don't ever tell Erickson we're about to get a juicy moment.
Erickson, you set up the red camera just now?
They're calling Dave, set up the red.
No, I don't have Dave Chappelle's number.
Don't think that I'm that awesome.
I'm not.
But we're only ever a few steps away from anyone.
Just call Donnell.
That's exactly what I'm doing.
My good guy, Ash E. Larry.
Nah, shout out to Donnell.
Oh, man.
Where the fuck is Ash E. Larry's number?
I guess you could call Syph.
Oh, fuck.
Let's see.
Bong, bong, bong, bong.
Doo-doo-doo.
Oh, I don't have that either. Well, I don't have it. Not as industry as we thought. Don't worry about it. Let's see. Bong, bong, bong, bong. Doo-doo-doo. Oh, I don't have that either.
Well, I don't have it.
Not as industry as we thought.
Don't worry about it.
Uh-huh.
Still last on the list.
I'm blessed.
No, you're not.
I was going to call Ashy Larry, man.
But Dave, answer my DM.
Call me.
Text me.
I'm waiting up.
And I don't even know what I need to say.
That's on my bucket list.
I have to talk today.
I was going to say, have you ever met him and ever had a conversation?
I don't think so.
Yeah, you guys should sit down for sure.
I don't think so.
There's been a few times where people invited me to where he was,
and I couldn't be there.
Or, like, he was inviting everybody to the ranch out there, making them take the COVID test. I didn't really there or like he was inviting everybody
to the ranch out there
making them take the COVID test.
I didn't really look forward to that.
I don't know.
I mean.
I know.
I know.
I know.
It's protocol.
It's the proper thing to do
but it doesn't make you
rush to someone's home
number one.
Two,
I don't think I was invited anyway.
Well,
that's always the deal.
Dave,
invite me to that Ohio ranch.
That's what I got.
We should pot out there.
I said me.
See, we're trying to get
snuck in again.
I'm not sneaking you
into a ranch.
It's a strong play.
I like it.
I just like Ohio, Joe.
Love the beautiful
state of Ohio.
Who likes Ohio?
It's a swing state.
It's important.
My last catfish that got
me was in Ohio. What likes Ohio? It's a swing state. It's important. My last catfish that got me was in Ohio.
What part?
Yeah, catfish.
Yeah, I met a little hottie.
Oh, I thought you meant that.
I met a little hottie on the internet.
Said she lived in Cleveland.
Thought I'd never be there until I was strolling by on tour one time.
And I said, hey, come outside.
And she's like, ah.
I got you.
Don't worry about it.
Don't worry about it.
I'm going to just head to LA.
That's where I was going anyway. anyway no we're heading to Akron
that's a sick tour Ralph
Cleveland to LA
that was a good tour run
the old Cleveland run
did you meet the catfish
I didn't
well maybe I did actually
no
then she deleted her page
she got caught
I wasn't even mad at her
I kept following the fake page.
I was like, all right, you look good, bitch.
I don't have to meet you.
Wherever you're pulling these photos from.
Whoever this is is nice.
Yeah, get your shit off.
I still enjoy seeing this person.
Whoever this is looks great.
I hope she keeps up with the content.
You have good taste.
Oh, man.
Take Dave off, man, before I get riled up again.
I don't want to get riled up.
That was awesome.
But you do feel that you're not
number one on the list
our industry list yeah yeah we had this talk already where
yeah no we've had a lot i'm not i am not number one on the industry list by my gauge because i
go off of our souls i think in your little soul, you really want to be in the industry.
Do you really want to fight? I think in Park's little white soul,
well,
Park's tall white soul,
well,
Park's,
I got to figure out
where he is on the list.
I'm at the last.
Maul has industry in his core.
He started Rockefeller.
He's before me.
He is.
You and Rory are before me.
You just asked Dave.
I just kind of want to be home
and chill.
You just asked Dave.
And I don't know, Park's might be after me because he kind of just want to be home and chill too.
But you want to be home and mix records.
So you should be before me.
I want to be home doing nothing.
No, you want to be at Dave's house.
I want to go to Dave's house.
Yeah.
I don't.
Is that a point to get me on?
Yes.
That's a three-pointer, actually.
And if we had the real conversation, we had off mic, you would be living.
Dave is part of the greatest comedian living. Yeah, but you don't say publicly, call me. I want to come to your home. yes that's a three pointer actually and if we had the real conversation we had off mic you would be losing
yeah but you don't say publicly
call me
I'm gonna come to your home
the fuck is wrong with you
will your children sleep
the fuck is wrong with
just thinking of it
just don't listen to me
to call you on a podcast
sick
we have a lot of reach
no that's true
so how should I
no but that's why you use it.
And you just last week, yo, the demon time.
I'm not with all that good words.
Have power.
Like when you say the words, the universe may come back.
Now you're clowning me for utilizing that.
I'm just saying.
I'm a mature counter.
I'm a mature counter.
I'm just speaking to the industry conversation of who's more industry.
I am utilizing my words to will things to fruition, Maul.
You want a date with a man?
No, I want to go there
and see something.
No, not even a date.
You want to go right to the crib.
I want to go there
and see something.
I want to go snoop
around the ranch.
Maybe I'll do like I did at Puff's
and go to sleep in the bathroom
outside for two hours,
lock myself in there
and have a blast.
Dave's probably got good wine, too.
Oh, man.
Good weed. That Puff shit over there, too. Oh, man. Good weed.
That puff shit over there, man.
Look, look at y'all trying to make me number one again.
I'm out of here.
All right, what else do we have to get to?
What else is super important out here?
Rest in peace, David Dinkins, man.
Oh, yeah.
Rest in peace, David Dinkins.
Mayor Dinkins.
First African-American mayor of New York.
Mm-hmm. Wow.
Did it say how Dave passed?
We're showing our age, man.
I'm not sure.
He was 93.
Yeah, I don't think it said officially, but certainly rest in peace.
Rest in peace to Billy Evans as well, yes?
Yes.
Rest in peace.
They're not telling us cause of death there as well.
And 21 Savage's brother was murdered.
And I just hope we can all make it out of the year safe,
like through the next month, one month left.
This has been a really morbid year, man.
Prayers, thoughts, love, and condolences to 21 Savage,
his family, friends, loved ones. That's just sad. Yeah, that. Prayers, thoughts, love, and condolences to 21 Savage, his family, friends, loved ones.
That's just sad.
Yeah.
That is sad.
A lot of death.
A lot of death.
Prayers to the family, for sure.
So I saw a video of Jim Jones and French Montana being friendly.
They were in the same space using the same slang.
French Jones.
All right.
The Coke boys.
Mm hmm.
Five.
Yeah.
CB five is the name of it.
Mm hmm.
I liked it.
Um,
and I'll be honest with y'all that this,
this reconciliation of Jim and French warms my heart.
Like I paused and I stared at that video for a long time.
As somebody that was present in New York when that beef was going on,
no need for me to talk about how active it was,
but please believe it was active.
Like, see you on the street driving by active.
That's as much as I'll say.
So to see this unification from new york acts that was
once at odds the way that they were at odds man i'm so super happy for these brothers yeah i like
it and it felt good to see um also the same with fab and jim now that i think about it yeah yeah
just i think this one was a little more publicized with how crazy it was well that was
that wasn't rap shit jim and uh french the fab shit though i'm saying like jim and jim and fab
is on double dates together now getting older they in miami together like but that's the shit that
pardon me that's the shit that should be highlighted in our culture when these dudes just age and mature and evolve in front of our very eyes.
I remember calling Fab in a story that I shouldn't share many, many, many, many years ago.
And I had this great idea of doing a song with him and Jim because I was such a big Jim fan and a Fab fan.
It was New York. They were the two. And Fab was like, me and Jim.
And he didn't say nothing, but all he said was me and Jim, kind of, you know.
It's a little tension.
That was it.
Yeah.
That was all he said.
So to see this type of brotherly love and frolicking in Miami with our wives, our longtime girlfriends, we buy the pool.
No, I think they're in Aruba.
Yeah, they were in Aruba.
Wherever they are, it's awesome.
I'm sorry.
I was just at that same flamingo farm they was at. Oh, talk your shit, Rory. The flaming Aruba. Yeah, they were in Aruba. Wherever they are, it's awesome. I'm sorry. I was just at that same Flamingo farm they was at.
Oh, talk your shit, Rory.
The Flamingo farm.
Come on, man.
You don't recognize that Flamingo farm?
That's your bad.
Yeah, I didn't.
I didn't.
Thank God Rory is here to point it out for me.
I saw Halim was down there.
Everyone's in Aruba for some reason.
Not for some reason.
I'm sure they're shooting something.
They're there for the Flamingos.
No, it was Fab's, what was it, birthday?
Birthday that he didn't invite us to
Come on FABO
Don't do that
FABO
Come on don't do that
The sport
Sports
Wiz
Yeah
Don't do that man
Next year
COVID
It was like only nine people
Aruba was great with the COVID too
I see what he did
But it got me to thinking
What other beefs do we need to see squashed?
Not beef like the real street rappers shooting at one another,
but like what other blemishes that we came up on do we need to see squashed?
Like Wayne and Birdman kind of are resolved.
We've seen a lot of reconciliation.
Only one's left.
50 a game are kind of resolved. Have they spoken? Yeah, they was close. We've seen a lot of reconciliation. Only one's left. 50-50 a game. 50-50 a game are kind of resolved.
Have they spoken?
Yeah, they was at the club together.
They're kind of resolved.
They're as resolved as you can be with 50.
Yeah, if they're not, they're one or two people away from being resolved.
No, they're good.
They go out together.
But I just think they're both extremely petty,
so they won't advertise it the same way other people will.
I think maybe all we have left would be Hov and Dame.
I don't know that we'll ever see that.
I'll never say never.
Maybe Drake and Ye.
Which I think that'll come.
Other than that, we've run out of hip-hop beefs
that need to be squashed.
That's kind of a good thing.
That are not actual real.
Yeah, real beefs.
I'm not talking about that.
I'm a podcast host. I know. I'm not actual real. Yeah, real beefs. I'm not talking about that. I'm a podcast host.
I know.
I'm not trying to get involved
in the street stuff.
I agree.
Yeah, I'd have to think,
but there are many
of just like pointless rap tiffs.
Shit that don't matter.
Because a lot of this shit happened
when these guys were young, man.
It's like everybody older now,
kids, engaged or married.
You ain't beefing no more.
What are we doing?
This happened when we was 24 years old.
Yeah.
We're not doing that anymore.
But it is good to see, though.
No, it's great to see.
Like, Jim and French, you know, if you're from New York,
you understand exactly how, you know, far back this tension goes
and things that were happening around it.
So, for this, this is a…
No, this wasn't tension.
A little past tension.
Yeah, this was way past tension.
But it's good to see, though.
It's real good to see.
Yeah, congratulations to these men, man.
Honestly, I feel good about that.
Congratulations to Elon Musk as well.
Oh, my God.
To Elon Musk as well.
He is officially the second wealthiest man ever, right?
Or in the country, if not ever.
Is that true?
I was going to say.
In the world?
In the country.
I don't know.
No disrespect.
I don't read that.
In the country?
Come on, man.
Is he number two?
Jeff Bezos being one?
Yes.
He's number two, okay.
Elon Musk is now tied with Bill Gates as the world's second richest man.
Well, there's that.
All right.
Congratulations.
When's the subway hitting LA?
He's going to get us all to Mars.
And I'm going to spark a cig.
Sparking a cig on Mars.
Sparking a cig on Mars.
You'll definitely want to be the first nigga to smoke a cig on Mars.
Let's really test out the air up here, buddy.
See what's going on.
Should blow up the whole planet.
What else is important that we need to get to?
The undoing.
The undoing.
Yes.
Is everyone caught up?
Yes.
One episode left.
Well, I don't know if the people listening are, but.
I don't care.
Sorry.
I don't care about you guys.
Spoiler alert.
We're here to talk about it.
Y'all watch that shit on your own time or fast forward through this part right here.
But the undoing
is doing
they're doing undoing things
it's undoing right before
our very eyes
the doing is on
that show was so good
I did go look up
the word undoing
like I was trying
to get a clue
as to
alright man
who might have did it
what are they undoing
who did this
so now
if you saw the end
of the last episode
we won't mention it here because we're kind.
You probably think the little boy did it like Maul, right?
Like me.
I didn't think the little boy did it.
Oh, wait.
No, you with me.
I think he did it.
Parks thinks the little boy did it.
I've been saying that for a while.
You think one of the little boys.
It don't even matter.
Any child.
Yeah.
Rory, what side of the fence are you on here?
I'm still sticking with my theory that-
It's her and she's-
That might be giving the writers too much credit. Schizo? Sch schizo schizophrenic yeah and i think she's actually the side chick
um i think or i have two theories she was actually the side chick uh and killed her or she was in a
relationship with shorty and found out she was fucking dude and killed her because of that
because she was way too comfortable naked uh in the gym she kissed her. I think they may have been in a relationship in her psychotic brain.
The son don't know
that that's in there,
that thing he found.
Somebody put that
in his closet.
I don't know if it was dad.
I don't know if it was
the mom.
But what I love about this show
is at the end,
whoever they try to make you
think it is,
they dispel that shit
within the first two seconds of the next episode. away yeah i know let me tell you what happened oh okay i was
wrong i i do have a theory that that her father is actually just her doctor um i would be so mad
if it was right by the way i'm kind of i'm just kind of throwing shit at the wall these are far
fetched uh uh theories either their
relationship is not father daughter it's it feels like doctor patient and her having this uh idea
that she was a therapist and that gay couple as client so you do think this is gonna go shutter
island fight club maybe okay maybe i'm not probably totally wrong i'm not off of the white lawyer
friend she just my mom tried to make me
Get off of it by saying
She's a wild card
You know she's a lawyer right
Yeah but
I don't think a lawyer
Would ever commit such a crime
Like I said ma
No the only
The only reason why
Lawyers are murder
It's television
Yeah but no the only reason
Why I think I say her
Because I go back to the episode
When she first walked in the courtroom
And the way that
The
The woman that died
The way the husband
Looked at her When she walked in Like he looked at her In the the woman that died the way the husband looked at her
when she walked in like he looked at her in a way and she even said on the phone like he just gave
me a death stare like it's like why would you look at her like that and i'm not i'm not off of
that stare she gave when shorty was breastfeeding episode one either yeah yeah that's true there
might be a beef there that we haven't learned about just yet.
I've exonerated the Spanish husband-boyfriend guy.
Yeah, too obvious.
I'm off of them.
And if it's him, I'll be angry.
Do you guys have any theories on why the father is always sitting looking at that painting in that place?
Have you ever seen any Donald Sutherland movie in the last 30 years where he didn't do something weird and psychotic like that. No, I'm just asking if you have an opinion
of how it's connected to anything. He's into the arts,
Rory. Okay.
He's a pianist. Shorty was a painter.
Everyone keeps finding him there and he's
doing the same painting. Shorty was a painter.
There's something here.
Y'all dismissing that point
is a little odd to me. You think the father was smashing it too?
It wouldn't shock me
he did say
he cheated on his wife
maybe
stop
somebody
if the wife
was following the husband
cause I like how
the husband pulled up
like
yo what you doing over there
now that I'm out
we by the water
like
that's a little odd
don't you think
he was following me
well quickly there too which is why my point of her kind of making this entire thing up I got time to think. Now that I'm out, we by the water like, that's a little odd, don't you think? He was following me?
Well, quickly there too, which is why my point of her kind of making this entire thing up.
As soon as he was bailed out, TMZ was in the front,
every camera ever, this huge crowd.
Then all of a sudden, they're walking on the East River
with not a single soul noticing them,
and now they're hugging and talking about the trial?
Yeah, yeah.
You making this shit up in your head.
They found a low spot.
Then I thought the mom and the son
it's not a low spot
nowhere over here
I thought
I thought the mom
and the son
might be in cahoots
until my mom said
yeah but the mom
didn't know
that the boy saw them
so
no
like my mom
keeps trying to
debunk my theories
this is what I think
if sure
if the wife
if Nicole Kidman
was following
Hugh R. Grant
and saw him busting it down or she was having an affair so she was going to get hers off or she was buying art because she keeps having flashbacks that we can't see.
Someone was following her.
I'm mad at that.
Now, I no longer think it's the kid.
Could be the lawyer.
And I'm still stuck with the dad. it might be the dad or the lawyer those
are my final two options I need final two options on all of you uh damn how do I just leave out the
mom I think it was either Hugh Gray or the son I think it was either Nicole Kidman or the lawyer
her friend I think Nicole Kidman or the father. Her father. Her father, yeah.
All right.
The votes are in.
We'll see this weekend.
Stop the count.
It might be.
Yeah, I'm with you.
I'm with you.
I'm with you now.
Now that I'm thinking on second thought, I don't know.
Yeah, nah, I'm sticking with that, though.
It's a good show.
I'm so conflicted. I hate when life happens and it pits me against some of my own beliefs.
I come in here so many times and I say, yo, man, these fucking writers, they don't get right to it.
They drag it out.
It's a series.
We just want to sink into the shits.
Challenge yourselves.
Then we get a show like this that comes out, yo, just six episodes.
We're challenging you every episode.
I was like, why isn't it longer?
You could have dragged this out a little bit. i don't know how i feel about i'm all over the place six episodes i love i like no not only that six episodes an hour is my i feel like this might
have was supposed to be a movie i could see this because theaters are closed they just
used more film edited it and just made it a miniseries. Yeah, this could be shot as a movie.
These are movie actors.
This is Sutherland.
This is Kidman, Hugh Grant.
This is not HBO miniseries actors.
This is like Hollywood A-list actors.
That's true.
But they do have a, I think the director or producer also does Big Little Eyes.
Is that what it is?
With also Nicole Kidman on HBO.
So there's a thing there.
And I do like that a lot of the bigger actors and actresses
have kind of given in to the times.
Like, it's okay now to do a TV series
that may be on HBO or on Netflix or something streaming.
Like, it's not belittling to your career
the way it used to be.
Like, wait, you're going to do TV now?
You were a movie star.
Now we fuck with TV now.
Yeah.
But yeah, this was shot like a movie star. Now we fuck with TV now. Yeah. Yeah.
But yeah, this was shot like a movie, Mo.
Yeah, it was.
Absolutely.
It feels like a movie.
Absolutely.
But TV's been trending in that direction for a while.
Sure.
I don't know.
They got an hour to give us a lot of shit.
I'm hoping that the finale is two hours at least.
I would like that, too.
We'll see.
Yeah, I'm not mad at that
that would be awesome
wait till they
Night of Us
and it's a hung jury
and everyone gets off
and then we just don't know
you gotta figure out
who did it yourself
don't bring that up again
I hated that
cause they really had
the potential to do
some great things
and the ending just got to
nigga what the fuck
let us figure it out ourselves
like who do you think
oh I hate it
nah the same way
I hated the Sopranos ending
I like now the same way I hated the Sopranos ending, I like now.
The same way I hated
the Night Of ending,
I like now.
They better not do this
with the undoing, though.
I like the Night Of ending.
Have you guys been doing Fargo or no?
Nah, still.
No, he keeps telling me
to watch it, but I haven't.
It's good.
No, a lot of people
are telling me to watch it.
It's real good.
And they're going beyond
10 episodes,
which I thought was interesting.
I thought this was going
to be the finale,
and then it's like,
oh, no, there's a whole new shit.
All right, cool.
How's Chris Rock doing? He's bodied it. Okay. Yeah. Who was going to be the finale, and then it's like, oh, no, there's a whole new shit. All right, cool. How's Chris Rock doing?
He's bodied it.
Okay.
Yeah.
Who wins the Joe Budden-Will Smith versus?
Will Smith.
See?
Joe, I love you.
That was fast.
Will Smith.
Have you ever got jiggy with it?
I don't know that Will Smith beats me in a versus.
Parents just don't understand might be pumping up.
It wouldn't.
It wouldn't. See, it's blasphemous. That's why I don't have you talk to him. Parents just don't understand might be Pump It Up it wouldn't it wouldn't see it's blasphemous

Fresh Prince intro too

Yo, Miami, this weekend,

It's fucked up now.
All the chicks I put in all this vacation work with two months ago, now their kids got COVID.
They got to be parents.
Yeah.
Responsibility.
I hate when they have to do that.
Fuck.
You got to take care of your kids.
Look at what you get mad at.
I'm kidding.
Comedy style.
Comedy style.
Comedy style.
Is there anything else that we need to get to that the people just...
Shout out to the first all-black referee officiating team in the NFL last night.
Crazy it took us long, but you know.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Congrats.
Yeah.
I saw a headline that said Jeezy and Gucci did more numbers in the VMAs and the Billboard
Awards, and I'm not really surprised.
Shocked me at all.
Oh, that's a good idea.
Trevor Noah's hosting the Grammys.
We didn't touch on that in our Grammy breakdown.
I think that's pretty cool.
All right, he better not Trevor Noah it.
He better get into his bag.
Calling Trevor Noah?
Yes, Rory.
Okay.
I'm calling Trevor Noah.
They shut down a swingers club in Astoria last weekend.
Mm-hmm.
Wait, that wasn't Astoria?
I didn't know there was a swingers club in Astoria.
That shit looked nuts.
Did you see the...
Your call has been forwarded to...
Yo, that headline, it was a couple fucking no masks face-to-face and spread the COVID.
What was the full story?
Oh, I don't know.
There was 80 people there, though.
Yeah, but something specifically happened where there was a couple that decided to take their mask off and really get in their bag.
And then that spread everything.
Damn.
Yo, I can't believe that the COVID cases in Atlanta are so down.
See, I'll be overpaying for the pussy.
I told you.
Let's go to the swingers club.
It's $500 all night.
All night.
I think it was less than that.
No, I'm looking at the menu.
Oh, okay.
I'm looking at the menu.
The menu's right here.
The pussy menu?
Yeah, it says VIP room bill, $30 for 10 minutes.
No, me and Rory in parks don't do that.
$50 for 20 minutes.
But we don't pay for vagina mall.
$60 for half hour.
Yo, have you guys
Heard of a vagatial
No what is that
That sounds really intriguing
Yeah they sit
Does she rub her
Does she rub her vagina
On your face
Fam
Yeah
It's for women
Rory
Oh okay I thought
It was for us when they
No no no
Because I think there's
Probably a lot of good
Chemicals in vagina
That would help with our skin
Oh yeah yeah
Depends on who it is
Some bad chemicals
In some of them
You've never had a chick ride your face
and you were glowing the next day?
Boy, we go left so fast.
Look like a glazed donut?
Tell us all about the vaginal, Joe.
Never mind.
No, now you got to tell us.
Is it skincare for the vagina?
Yes.
It's a rejuvenation.
It's like a steam.
Snap that pussy back.
Let's just move on.
Let's just go. I go no you were saying and i don't remember where i was going so the vaginal i'm just gonna fucking the vagina
just forget it no they should take care of their it's fine you guys um internal organs. What else is important before we go?
Could you guys make a joke out of everything?
Look, still joking around.
Fucking so immature.
No, it was science.
Let's see.
Trump finally letting go of office, maybe?
Maybe.
That's a mall question.
I know.
Fucking lost 30 times in one day.
Let's not rile him up, please.
NBA trades.
Hey.
How you feeling?
I see a Lakers repeat.
That puts LeBron at five?
Yes.
And then Corey's going to hear my mouth when LeBron gets to five.
You're going to hear me.
I'm silent right now because I know the ring argument.
When he gets to five, some of you old heads are going to have to have a talk with yourselves.
They'll discredit him because of the bubble.
Just telling you that now.
I'm not saying my opinion there.
No, they'll discredit him for the percentage.
Mo, what does the conversation look like if he finds a way to get to six?
Then he has to.
The COVID ring will always be that conversation that people talk about, but it will be they deserved it.
They wasn't playing hard in the bubble.
No, I'm just saying it's going to because it was such a different.
I'll tell you what they all of them.
It was a tougher ring to win.
Some people say that I'm some people.
Yeah, I could see that the circumstances.
Would it have been different if Craig Elo and them was in there?
All of Mike's rivals.
I'm not comparing. No, I'm rivals? I'm not comparing Mike to-
What would happen if Dan Marley showed up?
Wow.
Cur is lighting that thing up.
Fucking Mike.
Why do you like Michael Jackson?
Don't do that, boy.
No, you really don't like Michael.
Don't do that.
I love Mike.
Oh, it's the next thing.
The 90s.
I get it.
Don't do that. No, I. I think it's the next thing. The 90s. I get it. Don't do that.
But no, I don't compare.
Mike is the greatest.
But we're going to have to just acknowledge certain things if LeBron get one or two more.
We wouldn't have to acknowledge anything.
Just the ring count six?
Okay.
If you want to argue that.
You think LeBron couldn't have had his way with dead left shrimp?
I mean, if we're going to have that problem, I saw LeBron.
I haven't heard that name be brought up.
Maybe Brad Doherty would have been the LeBron stopper.
I mean, I saw LeBron.
I don't get the fuck out of here with this shit.
No, LeBron struggled.
Shut up.
He struggled with Paul Pierce before he went to Miami.
Couldn't get past Boston.
How many ranks LeBron got?
Let's talk about it.
Four. That's a very respectable four
No absolutely
And y'all got me sounding like
I'm a LeBron dick ride
I'm not
No I don't compare him and Mike
I'm not one of those guys
Do we acknowledge the LeBron
A&R your album curse?
What was the curse?
Oh nothing
If you don't see it
It's the one you told me
About last week
Oh You gotta wait for the deluxe You gotta wait for the deluxe Oh, nothing. If you don't see it, it's the one you told me about last week. Oh.
What was the one last week?
You got to wait for the deluxe.
You got to wait for the deluxe.
The one we kicked it about.
You brought it to my attention about how LeBron, every time he do your shit.
Yeah, you got to wait for the deluxe.
Look at him all trying not to piss Maverick off.
You got to wait for the deluxe.
You know what's kind of funny, though?
You did.
Shout out to LeBron, man.
That's another thing you started that we don't bring up.
LeBron's A&R shit.
did that's another thing you started that we don't bring up lebron's a and r shit the first time i'd ever seen him rock with that face that he does when he hears an album was to your record
no he's done that before that no it definitely wasn't he did and i don't get i don't i don't
take that from him because he's he has been a music guy from as soon as i saw him in high school
how he started with the social shits was off your shit.
But best thing that you know, I was trying to pick you up.
Hey, do we want to take it?
That's good. Do we ever prosecute Zion's family for taking that money or not?
Or did that just go under the rug?
Did we just worry about the Steve Adams signing?
As opposed to who else's family took money?
No, LeBron did.
LeBron's mom was driving around in a yellow Hummer when I was in high school.
LeBron had a G-Wagon.
He had a Walkman.
A Walkman?
A Walkman.
Nigga had a Walkman.
Oh, nah, nah, somebody got you.
Well, if he had a Walkman in 2009, 2009?
No, younger than that.
LeBron was in high school 2003.
LeBron had a Walkman. LeBron's in high school 2003. LeBron and Walker, man.
LeBron is that dude.
Yeah, no, I was in junior high.
Yeah, I feel like a Lakers repeat.
I see the Knicks acquiring mad draft picks,
and that's about all I care about.
I see the Nets trying to really be serious about whatever they're doing.
And Covington to the Blazers is big time.
Yeah.
That's what I think.
I think more importantly, people not paying attention,
that Kelly Oubre to the Warriors was a big pickup for them.
That clay injury hurts still.
Yeah, that hurts.
But Kelly Oubre as a future piece with that team is big.
You really liked Chris Paul going to Phoenix as well.
Oh, yeah.
Him and Devin Booker is tough.
And DeAndre Ayton. They got a nice team they're working on down there. And the season starts next well. Oh, yeah. Him and Devin Booker is tough. And DeAndre Ayton.
They got a nice teammate working on down there.
And the season starts next month.
This is nuts.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's weird.
Are y'all prepared for the new lockdown that is rumored to be coming,
but we know it's really coming?
It's coming.
It's coming.
Cuomo said it's coming December 1st, right?
I think they're just trying to drag out the holiday season as long as possible.
But what do they mean when they say lockdown? Stay in the house again? right? I think they're just trying to drag out the holiday season as long as possible.
And what do they mean when they say lockdown?
Stay in the house again?
No, I think...
Or just restaurants are closed
and do what you want?
Restaurants are closed.
Social shit will be over.
All that social shit is closed.
I've been being a restaurant hoe
in light of this news.
I've been like going out
to dinner and shit
because I'm like,
all right,
they're about to lock us in again.
Yeah, I'm not mad at that.
I haven't been out
to a restaurant in six months.
How long do y'all think this new lockdown will last?
Until Trump concedes.
How about the rest of you guys?
Yeah.
How about...
I think they have to do it for at least six weeks, I would think.
I think right now is the perfect time to do it because December goes into the holiday shit when most people will actually just be home.
Yeah. So, yeah, let's sit down for a little bit. December goes into the holiday shit when most people will actually just be home.
Yeah.
So, yeah, let's sit down for a little bit,
come back after the new year and see where we're at.
I think we're...
I think this is a good time to actually do this.
I think we're in and out of lockdown
the whole 2021.
Oh, that...
Majority of it.
That for certain.
At least nine months.
That for certain.
No, I think till next year.
2021?
Yeah, this year.
The entire lockdown?
No, I think we'll come in and out of it
the same way we did
we said the same thing
in the beginning of this year
oh man how can they do us
they're not gonna lock us
in the whole year
and we've been locked
in the house the whole year
oh well
you mean lockdown
like restaurants
will be open until
a certain time
like curfew type of thing
yeah that'll happen
no no that'll happen
later
it's just gonna fluctuate
as it should
with the disease
yeah
but the days of us
just going out and
turning it up and having
options, that's...
Unless the vaccine works and it comes
out quickly and people take it.
They said the vaccine is given in
two doses. The first dose, you'll feel
every side effect, and the second dose, you
should be okay about a month later. I'm cool.
Very irresponsible
of me to spew that on my platform here,
but I am cool on that.
I need more information, but I will probably get the vaccine.
Rory, that's going to kill all your little fiber diet nutrients
that you're taking, your fiber brownies.
You're going to be shitting for a week.

No.
But I'm not going over there.
What else is going on?
You can edit it up.
I'm just talking shit.
What else is up?
I think that's everything that I had that's important.
Lockdown, you guys don't care. Lockdown, you guys don't care.
Global warming, you guys don't care.
Trump not letting you go, you guys don't care.
What else?
What else is here?
Yeah, that's it for me.
Biden picked his cabinet today, right?
Or some of it?
He's been picking it all week.
Half of the cab?
Yeah, he's been picking the cab all week.
He opened the cabinet.
He has not opened the cabinet.
Going to decide what he wants to put into it? Yeah. Has any uh he's at trader joe's very famous people on there that i've seen

anything like that so i don't have much analysis on that all right well we'll see we shall see

So apparently the Throat Baby song bubbling atlanta for mad long and now it's made his way over here and everybody's singing it but i just

lean on rory to put me on to the songs that i would never hear but i should hear and he didn't
i thought you knew
about this this was popular i didn't think i needed to put you onto this record because it
got so popular i figured whoever you had he was chilling with you know the the throat baby the
throat babies you'd be with would have put you onto this record nah they just give right to
throat okay they're not putting me onto the joints they just get right to that Necolator 3000

Okay.
What do vegans eat on Thanksgiving?
Oyster mushrooms.
Bread.
Kale.
Fiber.
I don't think there is fiber in bread.
That might be your problem.
Oh, they told me there was bad fiber in it.
I was like, I'm going to eat the bread.
You're going the wrong route.
No, just get some apples, Rory.
You'll be all right.
I eat really well
not what your doctor says but no it's in my hereditary genes that we just don't have fiber
in our body only thing hereditary is your diet remember that that's not true that's that that's
not that's not accurate okay anyone that's listening sir that's not accurate you eat what
you was taught to eat. Right or wrong?
Well, I'm saying that I eat extremely well, that my body hereditarily does not have enough fiber in it.
So even if I eat more fiber than the average person or eat really well, I still will lack fiber.
My body has no fiber because of my lineage of men in my—
Your body doesn't probably digest fiber properly.
Yes.
That's actually the issue.
The men in my family just don't have...
The ferals have no fiber.
The fiber ferals.
That's just who we are.
I don't know if it's from the potato famine.
I don't know what it's from.
It probably is.
Did you say famine?
I did.
You play something until I find something.
All right, I'll start then.

Or Lila Ike.
I don't want to mispronounce that because this is way too fire.
Ay.
No, Joe Biden.
That was dope.
Yeah, that was hard.
We'll play some off this Rasheid Chappelle and Buck Wilde album.
This is Rock Bottom featuring Ransom.
This is a Ransom stand account at this point.
From us, we do not have a history of killing white people.
White people have a history of killing us.
They say we violent, we ain't violent at all.
We wasn't violent till we got to these shores
They scream your name when you out on that court But crucify you when they got you in court
They say they love you, they don't love you at all They selling dreams, nigga, fuck what you thought
They say they love you, they don't love you at all They selling dreams, nigga, fuck what you thought
Nigga, fuck what you thought Why they trying to enslave you?
Why they look at these algorithms
Then go off what they find in the data?
What if I was your neighbor?
But in your eyes I'm a stranger
Would you call on five and decide you in danger?
What if I was the savior?
Would I sign to a major?
Would I regret all this violent behavior?
What if your mom was a child when she raised you?
Would you decide to degrade her?
What if you was born and she died when in labor?
I bet now you would praise her Let's try to think
Would she had lived if you was born even five minutes later?
What if Mustafa Shabazz fired and missed his shot?
What if Puff was the target and maybe Big was not?
Why would you watch the whole movie and almost miss the plot?
The final destination, debating if we should live or not
I ain't concentrated on COVID, been killing us from the start
Let me lift this weight off my shoulders
We tend to equate progress with concessions We can no longer make that mistake
See, it's no in-between You're either free or you're a slave
There's no such thing as second class citizenship
That is Rock Bottom, Rasheed Chappelle, and Buck Wilde
Featuring Ransom
They have a really dope project
Called Saints and Sinners

Yo, so I forgot who came out and said that... Who came out and said that Kanye, my dark, beautiful, twisted fantasy
is album of the decade.
Any complaints about that?
No.
No, not at all.
None from me?
Goes back to me and Corey's argument
however many years ago in Edgewater.
There's an argument for Take Care
and one of those Kendrick albums
and those will be my three for the decade.
Gotcha.
I'm not mad at a good Kid Mad City,
Take Care,
and my beautiful
Dark Tits of Fantasy.
Those are the three albums
from the three artists
that should have given us
the soundtrack for the decade.

Yeah.
And Teflon Don.
