You celebrate Thanksgiving?
No I don't but
I went to my
Met up with my family last night
I don't really celebrate it
And then I'm vegan
So I couldn't eat shit
Duh
Nah just
Family just laugh at you
When you try to like
They're like yo
So you can't eat this either
What's the vegan options?
They're like you can't eat this either Y'all can't eat mac and cheese
Can't eat anything
Made with animal products
Well there's vegan mac and cheese
But it sucks
Wait what
Yeah
They didn't have no
Just lettuce
No I mean I had my food
Like my vegan food
Before I went to my family's house
But I ate
So you just sat at the table
I ate very well
But if they put
Yeah I just went just to chill
If they put animal steroids
In the plants
Then what's the difference
Animal steroids in plants Yeah they put They put steroids in the plants Oh well I mean I don't know if they put in animal steroids in the plants, then what's the difference? Animal steroids in plants?
Yeah, they put steroids in the plants.
Oh, well, I mean, I don't know if they're putting steroids in kale and ground walnuts and fucking...
Also, plants are living things.
Oyster mushrooms and shit like that.
And also, if veganism...
You're like a strict vegan and you don't eat anything that's a byproduct of animals.
Plants are a byproduct of animals.
It's from their shit. It's from their shit.
It's from their shit and their CO2.
So plants are not
vegan. Vegans just want to be better than
everybody else, like the old almond
milk. I'm not one of those type of vegans.
Yeah, I'm not like that. You were early on
the almond milk too. Like, oh, you're not drinking
almond milk? Because I'm lactose intolerant. I can't
eat almond milk. You got a lot of bodily
deficiencies. Black people, we're not supposed to eat dairy, black people. I can't eat. You got a lot of bodily deficiencies.
Black people, we're not supposed to eat dairy, black people.
You only still eat it because you like to shit on yourself.
Like, that's what you, that's your thing.
You like to have stomach pains. I like to shit on myself.
Joe likes stomach pains.
He likes to be taking a shit.
No, I know death is imminent.
So I live that way.
So let's drink milk.
Yeah.
What the fuck?
Yeah, I just can't do dairy, though.
So I was just like, fuck it.
I also don't drink milk.
And then I started really getting up and going to dairy.
You niggas kill me trying to live.
What?
Yeah.
Was that supposed to be a bar?
No, I'm kidding.
Milk is gross.
Was that an attempt at a metaphor?
Milk is disgusting.
Milk is great.
Cheese is good.
What did you have with your banana pudding last night?
Not milk?
They have vegan banana pudding now.
Fam, let me start the pod.
Let me start.
You didn't know that?
No, I don't want to.
That is good though. Wait, what's the animal in banana pudding? I'm just talking pudding now. Fam, let me start the pot. You didn't know that? No, I don't want to. That is good, though.
Wait, what's the animal in banana pudding?
I'm just talking about this.
We are now going to talk about vegan banana pudding to start this podcast.
That shit is fire.
Maul.
Maul.
See, you're one of them niggas.
You don't know until you have it.
Maul.
And then you buy 50 buckets of vegan banana pudding.
That's just how you are.
Can I just hear?
That's all right.
Can I just hear?
Every vegan tries to convince us with.
Buffalo cauliflower.
Wait, it tastes just like wings.
No, it doesn't.
Buckle up cauliflower.
It doesn't.
When it disrespects,
split your neck,
spit the tech,
yelling out,
baby,
you're dead.
All the people
see my face on all the TVs,
laid out like Castellano
on the wall with feet.
And to my family,
they're all agreed.
Yeah, my mama,
I can't judge her.
I love her,
but trust her,
she a sucker.
With you, when I turn around, I pay the price and the liquor store burn you down Happy Saturday out there, hope everybody's feeling good, feeling great, feeling full
Shout out to the people that had leftovers for breakfast, you know the vibe
Fuck some collard greens up this morning with turkey wings, what's up?
Bright and early, too.
10 a.m.
What were you?
This album?
Listen, man.
Y'all won't say it, but Eminem took Cam's stuff.
He did.
You can make an argument.
There's some DNA in there
Listen to Confessions of Fire
Cause we was like
See cause the way Cam was talking
Confessions of Fire
We thought he was talking
What the fuck is he talking about
Right
Like a black dude from Harlem
Talking like that content

At MTV Awards
I won't
I won't debate
What you
Oh hold up Kelly
I got Oh my god likes at MTV Awards. I won't debate what you... Oh, hold up, Kelly. Oh, my God.
There's also some big L DNA in Cam.
There's definitely a big L influence on Em.
I just want to get rid of the negative connotation of,
hey, there's some DNA in there.
Like, that's awesome, I think.
We'll talk about it.
Hold up.
Come on home with me.
Early 90s, it wasn't pearly and shiny.

Ordruggy with the XO's
My house had asbestos

With a kitty cat
Harlem what up though?
Niggas was getting punched in they face
Left and right in New York when this was out
This is when niggas used to get punched in they face
Now they shooting everybody

And you were like confused
For me I'd look for this record everywhere when I heard it and it was a street record on I was
fucked up over that He was only eight, but I hate you. No one cast think they experts. Who would take it up with you? Desperate.

Yo, yo, yo, relax.
Relax.

Parks is here, too.
No, he just said you didn't care. And your hair is long.
Maybe he cares.
He just said he was acting like he cared.
Don't say long hair don't care.
More cares about things.
Are you trying to grow your beard out?
What's going on?

Hey
It was lit last night
Had to let the curls go
Shook a tail feather to that one
Well it's a little dark
It's a little emo album
The Juicy J we were shaking our tail feather to
That makes sense
Bad bunny got emo on him
He always does a little bit but this one's a little bit more
Is this his 444?
Y'all feel like that's Rory's line, by the way.
Rory has introduced that critique to the culture.
Because every rapper's been chasing that 444.
Rory said, this is Jeezy's 444.
I never said that once.
This is Freddie Gibbs' 444.
Never said that once.
Like, Finn, you got to stop this.
What have I ever said that was 444?
Last week you said Jeezy's album, this was his 444.
No, I didn't.
Not once. We taped it. I know, go find it. Find where I said it. Say Vaughn, find where you said Jeezy's album, this was his 444. No, I didn't. We taped it.
I know, go find it.
Find where I said it.
Say Vaughn,
find where you said it.
Or even elude it.
I don't think you said it.
Nigga, go look.
What the fuck is you shaking
that head about?
I didn't ask you
for your personal opinion.
Go find it.
Go look, nigga.
And if it ain't there,
put it in there.
I said it, yeah.
He said it.
Nah, he remember all the episodes by heart.
Yeah.
Word for word, all three hours.
Sonographer headass nigga.
All right, my guy Rory is here.
What's going on?
Hey, Rory.
How are you?
Don't deflect.
I'm great.
How you doing?
You're not getting me this episode.
I'm fine.
Life is great.
Everything is fine. Did I get you last episode?
Yeah, we talked about his ass for 45 minutes.
And my lack of
fiber. Yeah, we did.
E-Rab is here. Erickson,
Savon, the Don is here. Corey
is here. Alex the Great is here. Gang, gang, gang.
You already know the vibes. I want to shout out
to Cash App. Sponsored by,
powered by, supported by,
enabled by Cash App. app thank you gentlemen over
there uh who else do we need to shout out shout out to all the black business owners uh yesterday
was black friday super important to acknowledge that as well shout out to everybody that enjoyed
uh eating with their family on thursday yes yeah rather saying even if it was on Zoom or something. A day to give
thanks.
Indeed.
If you ate on
Zoom you're a
fucking loser.
I'm a loser.
You ate on
Zoom with your
family?
We hung out on
Zoom and then
ate afterwards but
we did it Zoom.
Just to say hi to
each other.
Yeah say hi to
each other.
I get it.
We can't be
corny.
Whatever.
I want to see my
family.
It's the best
I'm going to get.
I always get
weirded out when you guys want to see your families. Why is that not there? I fuck with my family. It's the best I'm going to get. I always get weirded out when you guys want to see your families.
Why is that not there?
How many of them on Zoom did you do?
It was four or five Zooms, and then multiple people at each one.
How long did you stay on?
Hour, maybe.
Oh, no.
Joe doesn't love his family that much.
Or know how to get on Zoom.
Not Zooming with my family for an hour But I'm glad that that went well
What else do we have to shout out in the beginning here
Of this intro? Nothing, right? We did everything?
I mean, not really
We got Cash App, that's all that matters
Alright, good
So with that said, how was everyone's holiday?
It was great
It was a Thursday
It was different.
We can't fight the fact that it was very different.
Number one part in the world, man.
Yeah, I think it was a regular Thursday where maybe I started drinking earlier than usual.
That's about it.
And I hate when people get mad at you for eating breakfast on things.
They're like, are you eating?
Oh, yeah.
That's my girl.
Yeah, some eating breakfast.
Yes.
Because eating when you're super starving doesn't go well.
No.
You have to stuff your face and get full in four seconds.
So you have to line the stomach is what you're saying.
It's your strategy.
But it was cool seeing family.
I saw my cousins, my aunt, uncle.
It was with my nephew, my sister.
It was a small gathering, but it was cool.
Everyone with masks six feet apart, I would assume, of course.
No. Not at all. Didn't have a mask on, but it was cool. Everyone with masks six feet apart, I would assume, of course. No.
Not at all.
Didn't have a mask on.
Dead sea moss.
Yeah, sea moss and water.
You were the only vegan person there, right?
Yeah.
That's got to suck.
I don't think I could repeat the words I would be called if I walked into any one of my family's houses on Thanksgiving or period and said, hey, guys, I'm a vegan. Just lettuce.
I can't
repeat the words I would be called
and the shaming that would happen. It might help your
fiber though. That's true. Nah.
I need more.
So I won't ask you because you're vegan.
Parks, Rory, give me the dish that could have been a little better.
Oh no, we had a
Dominican Thanksgiving. The food was good
all the way around. We didn't have any traditional Thanksgiving shit. We had ropa vieja that I made and we had a Dominican Thanksgiving. The food was good. All the way around.
We didn't have any traditional Thanksgiving shit.
We had ropa vieja that I made, and we had lasagna and ribs.
Everything was good.
No Park's lamb?
Nah, not Thanksgiving.
Got it.
Why not?
Only certain animals you can eat on Thanksgiving.
Yeah, no, lamb's not one of them.
Really?
No, you could.
I just, that's not what was requested by the the family so i was it wasn't a
dish that was bad it was one that was missing i missed the ham on thanksgiving i was a little
upset there was no ham and you know sometimes when you throw a little ham near to little
feelers out there like you know as men were never heard so it's just like you kind of have to slip
things into conversation every now and then she's like hey i haven't had ham in a really long time
i really miss ham.
I wish there was like a holiday coming up
where ham would be there.
Like, okay, we'll look into it, male.
Male.
And then I woke up in the morning
and wasn't a ham in sight.
Oh, no, they don't fuck.
But it was good.
Turkey was really good.
Mac and cheese was really good.
Green beans, mashed potatoes, stuffing,
all the typical regular shit.
All right.
Kill the suspense early.
Who made the green pea casserole?
No, that's standard.
That was already in the fridge.
We eat that every day.
Got it, got it, got it.
Kill the suspense.
You hear Joe's stupid ass?
There was no suspense behind the green pea casserole.
What was your Thanksgiving, man?
My Thanksgiving was amazing.
It was super, super light.
It was just me, my mom, my two kids.
Oh, that's great.
That was it.
My brother felt a little under the weather, so my mom told him to stay home.
Nice.
And it was just intimate.
Who cooked?
Chef?
Mom.
No, no, no.
Mom cooked.
Mom cooked.
Nice.
Yeah, Mom made greens, turkey wings.
We didn't do the whole big drawn out Thanksgiving because of COVID.
I didn't want to put that on my mom. We did turkey wings, too. We didn't do the whole turkey drawn out thanksgiving because of covid i didn't want to put that on on my mom we did turkey wings too didn't do the whole yeah turkey wings and
turkey wings are fire i think i might implement that moving forward even when covid is over
like let's just do more turkey wings a turkey is ass well unless you do it right
the best part about a turkey is the the turkey sandwiches a few days later when you slice it down.
That's true.
But on the day of, I'm never really going crazy with the turkey on my plate.
If you get someone that really takes three days to season it and brine it and all that shit, it can be good.
But a lot of people don't go through those steps.
A regular turkey is dry and you chew it for two days.
A lot of people just cook it like it's a chicken and it's not.
I'm putting my whole hand in there to get the stuffing out.
Y'all do what you want with this.
I'm stuffing it down.
My mom's killed the stuffing yesterday.
Corey is porking it, so don't try it.
You got to box niggas out of the meals.
Let them know it was wild.
This pork and the stuffing, don't try it.
But yeah, plenty of leftovers.
I'll be doing this till Sunday.
I was offended when Savon hit the group chat to say,
hey, do you guys want any food before the pod?
Like, fam, are you black or nah?
We are eating Thanksgiving leftovers until Sunday morning.
At least.
At least.
At least.
Sunday night.
Whenever it is that I have to order a dinner again,
I'm going to be mad about it.
I am.
I think I've made it to Tuesday.
My mom let me know that she is not cooking for Christmas.
She got that out the way early?
Yeah, but like I told her, you're supposed to feel that way a day after Thanksgiving.
Yeah.
Like you just slaved over the stove for two days, meal prep, you ate.
You probably don't want to look at another.
Yeah, yeah.
You don't want to look at the kitchen.
So I get that. But moms, Christmas is happening. Saturday's meal prep, you ate. You probably don't want to look at another. You don't want to look at the kitchen.
I get that, but moms, Christmas, it's happening.
Did you guys feel any sadness or nostalgia sitting in on Wednesday night with no move?
Let's talk about that. That Wednesday night before Thanksgiving kind of went unnoticed as one of the bigger party days of the year.
I think it's the biggest bar night of the year.
It's the one. Clubs, days of the year. I think it's the biggest bar night of the year. It's the one.
Clubs, house parties, anything.
That wasn't always the night.
It was definitely different.
This holiday was definitely,
it just felt like
a regular day of the week
and some family was just...
I totally forgot that
the day before Thanksgiving
is that go out night
until Rory hit me
a few times a year.
Like, what you getting into?
And I was like,
should I be getting into something?
I was like, oh shit.
It's the fucking night
before Thanksgiving.
He's right.
Yeah, that's a term.
That's when you find the women
that don't care about their families.
Right.
That's what you're for.
Those are the heifers
that we were just talking about.
That's what you're for me.
Yeah, we just need the heifers.
Oh, when you find some heifers.
Oh my God.
What you doing for Thanksgiving?
I didn't even speak to my parents.
Oh, no. Anytime you go out, anytime you go out, you meet the chick like, oh, you find some heifers oh my god what you doing for thanksgiving i don't even speak to my parents oh no anytime you go out anytime you go out you meet the chick like oh i'll
go back to your crib like you don't have thanksgiving in the morning no oh all right well
you gotta be out by 7 a.m yo you doing your family thing tomorrow i don't know my dad oh all right
okay i'll call a cab
uh shout out to the people who the holidays are difficult for that's important uh All right. Okay. I'll call a cab.
Shout out to the people who the holidays are difficult for.
That's important.
Yeah.
And I saw a lot of that.
I saw a lot of people down in the dumps.
Prayers out to y'all.
I understand how that goes.
But yeah, Thanksgiving was pretty quiet, pretty peaceful.
And I'm ready.
Listen, I'll tell y'all, I'm prepared to lock down for all of 2021.
I don't think it'll be the whole 2021.
Don't matter.
It don't matter what we think.
It's what we're preparing for.
In March, when they said, hey, lockdown time, don't know how long it's going to go.
Do you remember the sentiment back then?
How long do you think we can do this?
And we did it for the year.
So I just don't think that while I think that some things will slowly open up i think we're preparing to be indoors so i'm trying to not be
depressed when thanksgiving is different when the night before thanksgiving is but i just don't
understand there is a new norm for the northeast i feel like the rest of the world like it's just
like your bro we talk about this like everybody don't have a huge audience. Everybody outside.
Houston and Atlanta don't count.
Their lives have not changed at all.
Yeah,
so it's like.
I'm dying to get a fucking Houston and Atlanta.
Yeah,
like I don't understand.
Like,
so only in New York do we have to like lock down?
Like,
I feel like Atlanta has not locked down the entire lockdown.
Well,
Texas governor,
the Texas governor came out and said,
we're not locking down anymore.
And I didn't know that the COVID cases in Atlanta were so,
they did briefly, were so low until we looked it up.
Yeah.
This is crazy.
But deeper than that, listen, right?
So I'm watching the news and they show the acidic Jews, like 10,000 of them gathering
at a wedding in Brooklyn.
This was a few months ago, right?
No, nigga.
This is last week, two weeks ago.
But it was for the rabbi that passed away
at his funeral a few months ago.
Yeah, they did that.
Didn't he pass away from COVID?
We should Google these things.
Yeah, he may have.
I'm not sure.
This may have been a different one.
What's the product?
I'm talking about the wedding.
There were 7,000 to 10,000 people at this wedding.
And Cuomo was beefing about it, of course,
because he's saying you're endangering New Yorkers' health.
This is against the rules.
This is against the law.
You cannot do this.
Sent the cops to break it up.
They took this to the Supreme Court,
and the Supreme Court ruled in favor of...
It's really just...
See, and this is where it's confusing, because the Supreme Court ruled in favor of religious groups. See, and this is where it's confusing because the Supreme Court ruled in favor that your COVID rules can't break up a religious ceremony.
But that was a wedding.
So that took me to, oh, so this Trump versus New York thing is going to get deeper.
Yeah.
And I feel bad for Cuomo.
I do, man, because that's fucked up.
Yeah.
And I feel bad for Cuomo.
I do, man, because that's fucked up.
Well, when they put out the stats of the highest rising cases per neighborhood, they were all acidic Jew neighborhoods.
Yeah.
In New York, yeah.
Specifically.
Yeah.
New York, religious ceremonies and shit are not a safe space, particularly.
People are singing and chanting and yelling.
And they were.
And touching.
They were. Touching.
They were deep.
They were deep in there.
Yeah.
New York City officials confirmed
second city lockdown by December 1st.
And all that says to me on a Saturday
is I need to hurry up and get a manicure.
My nails was looking like a werewolf
last time they did this.
But is everyone prepared for the lockdown is my point.
I've been locked down.
I mean, this is life.
Yeah.
In New York.
I've gotten used to it.
It's getting a little annoying work-wise and trying to get things done that are like really
important, non-social shit.
That's what I'm really getting annoyed by now.
Before it was cool, like, all right, we'll get through this together.
I'm getting annoyed on how much this is affecting my life in work.
Like, it sucks.
Your life in work?
Yeah, like how much things I can't get done
around all
these lockdowns. It's tough to get
things done. Let's just move to Texas. Because a lot of my work
requires people and being
around each other. Just move to Texas.
Let's go.
Listen, I was trying to do that before the lockdown.
Yeah, I've been able to get a lot of work done
even in lockdown, so I'm not really tripping.
Yeah.
All right.
Where would you gentlemen like to begin today?
Music?
Let's start with music.
Why not?
It's Saturday.
Let's start with music, then.
Yeah.
There's a lot of music.
Then fuck it.
Let's start with music.
Yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy,
yaddy.
Yaddy can put some up.
I won't let y'all shame me into not liking that song, because I do.
I know that there's this weird thing happening in hip hop.
It's like the gender wars and the segregation in hip hop.
You think that's a hip hop thing?
That goes beyond hip hop, buddy.
Listen, I like that song.
That's one of the songs that when I listen to the album, I like it.
I like the challenge attached to it. I like it. I like all of it. Did you do the challenge? No, but I like that song. That's one of the songs that when I listen to the album, I like it. I like the challenge attached to it.
I like it.
I like all of it.
Did you do the challenge?
No, but I thought about showing them the kicks for the day while that song was playing,
but I was like, ah, they're going to think I'm corny.
Has nothing to do with your body.
Letting that be the kick soundtrack.
Because what do dudes have?
We don't have nothing.
No, we don't.
Beards.
I want something.
Beards.
Nah. Fuck that. I get one shape up have nothing. No, we don't. Beards. I want something. Beards. Nah.
Fuck that.
I get one shave up a week.
I need more than that.
I mean, put a weave in.
That's why niggas was doing money phones.
Yeah.
We tried to make that a man thing.
It looked stupid.
Yeah, it was dumb.
And then the women took that and looked better doing it.
Much better.
We need something we could do to entice the ladies to fuck us.
Entice.
Entice.
Entice.
That's a hilarious word.
That's not what we do as men? Entice, yeah. that's not what we do is man entice yeah we love to entice yeah all right we're not starting with uh meg but uh the meg mentioned
made me want to ask y'all if what what albums have grown on you maybe in the last few months
what albums are still in rotation for y'all in the last few months? I feel like now we kind of visit shit, check it out, critique it, and leave.
True.
Is there anything that you heard different later on or just grew on you
or just stuck to your soul differently than when you first heard it?
I know that's a question that we didn't have written down.
I didn't have anything written down.
But if y'all have an answer, we can get back to it.
Maybe not a full project, but definitely some records that I was kind of iffy about it when
they first dropped.
And then now I'm like, oh, those records, all right.
But I think we talk about them.
Let me look.
I'm definitely still, we were talking about the Brandys.
Meg did 95.
We're all wrong, by the way.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was another thing I saw.
Is that good or bad?
It's pretty bad.
That we were all wrong.
Oh.
That we were all wrong?
I don't think 95 is a bad number.
It's not a bad number.
Do you think it's a bad number for her?
I think it kind of is.
For Meg, I think that's a bad number.
She had a lot of hype going into this.
The album sounded really expensive.
So from a logistics standpoint, I don't know if 95 is the best.
But 95 for an artist in that world, I think it's fine.
I thought her momentum was a lot higher than 95.
Yeah.
Well, you guys said
she was going to sell
500,000 in the first week.
That's not true.
We said over 200.
I said 150 to 200.
Over 200 is not a stretch.
Especially when you have
a hit, hit, hit single.
A hit, hit, hit single.
But I don't know
if they're doing that
the same way anymore, Parks,
with the streaming,
where if you have
7 billion on your single
that that equates
to your album sales.
Oh, they changed that.
I don't think that's...
But didn't they add something
where it's like your YouTube streams count too?
That's added, yeah.
I don't know how to quantify anything anymore.
Yeah, me neither.
Oh, it says $103 million.
But WAP wasn't her record.
No, but Savage was,
and that was a huge record.
I'm a Savage.
The Beyonce...
That was a long time before your debut.
It was like a multi-platinum single.
In the past couple years, that equated to very high album sales.
So that's where my number judgment came in.
So you were rolling with the hype machine and previous hip-hop tendencies.
I was rolling with the hype of the album and the eyes that are on her now,
combined with the fact that she has a multi-platinum single on the album.
I think she might have two multi-platinum single on the album. I think she might have
two multi-platinum singles
on the album.
But if they're not
counting the singles
towards the album anymore,
I would have judged differently.
I don't think it counts
as much as it used to.
I think they've changed
that a bit.
According to Chart Dad,
it's 103 first week
was the official number,
not 95.
That's a nice number.
I think 103 is great.
I think that's a great
first week.
Yeah, that's not a bad number.
Yeah, I would be happy
with that.
I don't know what that does in the school and how much you this but i don't know what it does for her yeah yeah i i don't because again it sounded like a really expensive album and i mean that in a good way
like y'all put some money and time into this yeah um so i don't know where that does with your 103
she's won every or been nominated for every best new artist. She was on the cover of what was it Time Magazine or something major.
GQ.
I try to separate
the hype machine.
She was not on the cover
of Time.
It was one of them shits.
No it was one of those big
If Park said it
it happened god damn it.
Park said she got
the cover of Time.
Once Park's get to Googling
you in trouble now Roy.
Give me a second.
I'm real.
She might have been
on the cover of Time. If she was on the cover of Time second. I'm real. She might have been on the cover of Time.
If Meg was on the cover of Time, I apologize wholeheartedly.
No, if she was on the cover of Time, you got to do the body challenge.
That's a fact.
That's a fact.
Come on, come on.
That's not how that works.
Come on, come on.
Give it to us.
Do the body challenge. Body-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-yaddy-y Yeah, go ahead and pull that up, Scream Man, because she's on the cover of Time. Hit it, Jack! Hit it, Jack!
You got to do the body-ody.
The 100 most influential people with Meg right on the cover,
looking great.
Take your shirt off, Meg.
Get to it.
Stop treating me like a piece of wood.
Come on, show your little freckled chest.
I'm actually in good shape, Joe.
Yeah, she did SNL
like she had all the
hype going
I did not know
she was on the cover of Time
that's a big deal
that's a huge deal
that's why I didn't believe it at first
on the most
influential people episode
or
whatever that's called
was it like online
or could I go
to Hudson News
in the airport
listen I wouldn't
I wouldn't care
where Time
put my cover out
I'm on the cover of Time I'm on the cover of Time.
I'm on the cover of Time.
How many magazines still have that?
That?
No, no, no.
That if you make the cover, it's a thing?
You on the cover of that?
There's only a couple.
There's only a few, yeah.
The girls have a few.
Rolling Stone's a big one.
The girls have some that I don't know.
The girls have some where the girls that do the cover, they just kill the shoot.
It's like a Cosmo or something like that.
Yeah, one of those.
They got a few of those.
Oh, Vogue.
Vogue is still definitely up there. They're on the cover of those. Oh, Vogue. Vogue is still definitely up there.
On the cover of Vogue.
That's crazy.
GQ would still be up there.
Yeah, I think GQ's.
And she was on the cover of that too, right?
Yeah, that's where her interview was.
I thought it was Black Men's.
Hip hop loves acceptance from whites.
Like, who the fuck cares about all these white-owned publications?
Agreed.
Or, listen, hot take, hot take, hot take.
Ready?
Here, shake the table.
Hit a pot, hit a pot, hit a pot.

This is the craziest story
of my life

for 30 years.
She busts back.
And I lived through 9-11.
This is fucking hilarious.
No, she responded to Meg's claims
that her chain got stolen
and that, you know,
she took hush money and all of this.
Like, you didn't think a response was coming?
I did not know Kelsey Nicole rapped.
I didn't even know who Kelsey Nicole was.
She didn't think she would have to rap until she heard the intro to Meg's album.
I mean, then you got to rap sometimes.
Did she bust back?
I'm trying to find this shit.
Busting back?
It's available on your DSP.
Yeah, I was about to say, is that number one on trending YouTube?
I didn't purchase it.
Who I'm taking shots at?
F*** your person.
You won't talk him to that s***.
That crash, that ball.
Oh, God, no, no, no, no.
You can't play Kelsey's record.
I don't want any cleans on Kelsey.
You can't play Kelsey's clean.
I would refuse to listen to clean Kelsey.

Dirty Kelsey's hilarious.
Uh-oh.
New Kelsey.
Yo, I wouldn't even.
Do we have a drop for her?
Oh, yeah.
No, we don't.
Kels.
That was good.
It's a shame we're here today.
Troupee told us because of you.
Because of you, man.
Look what Dick is causing you.
It was all good.
Yeah.
She kind of played it slow, though.
I don't know.
Hey. Was Kelsey her ghost rider all along
hold up man let's let's look a shot bk look a shot for big pop in heaven
don't disrespect big pop i'm saying maybe hou Houston will want to bust a shot for the coast. If I was the one
with the gun, you would have
heard about a murder.
She's telling
you. She didn't have
a gun. Plus, you peeped the syllable. Heard about a
murder. That means a little syllable play.
Oh, no. She gets crazy on the next one, too.
I want to address the first opening bar. I'm talking to the same
bitch that crashed the boat on 42.
You're supposed to crash a boat on 42.
Yeah, come on.
Have you ever been to Miami?
That's what you do.
Yeah.
Where we go?
Where's that line?
Plus crashing a boat
is a little less scary,
you know.
Said her back was turned,
but that girl know
who really hurt her.
Yo, I didn't even...
And then the ad lib,
I ain't hurt you, bitch.
But I don't understand... I don't understand that line, though.
What?
Because you said, I didn't hurt you.
Like, is she...
I don't...
Nobody...
Meg didn't say that she was the one that hurt her, did she?
I just want to tell Kelsey that subconsciously or not, this has to be helping Tori's case.
You saying you would've killed her
if you had the gun.
No, that's hurting
Tori's case, if anything.
Who had the gun then?
Because you did.
It wasn't me.
Hot potato.
This is what I'm saying.
Listen, if I'm on trial
and somebody else said,
if I had it,
you'd have heard about a murder.
Oh, I'm putting that on them.
That ain't me. Okay. And I'm not joking about this situation, I had it, you'd have heard about a murder. Oh, I'm putting that on them. That ain't me.
Okay.
And I'm not joking about this situation, but damn it, Kelsey.
You want to kill your bestie if you had the gun?
It was all good about a week ago.
Shout out Bobby Schmurda, but this bitch is really tweaking, bro.
Now, turn that down line back on, man.
Put it back on.
Put it back on, man.
We need to hear it in context.
I don't want to shout out Bobby
But this bitch is tweaking
So I got to shout out Bobby
What is going on in there?
It was all good
Yeah
About a week ago
Shout out Bobby's murder
But this bitch is really tweaking
About the one with the gun
You would have heard about a murder
Her back was turned
But that girl know her really hurt her
Never been a jealous friend
And the people really know it
If you would have kept it solid
Then I would've been toted
See, I really thought I knew you, thought that you would keep it G
If you wanna talk gangster, bitch, I'm really from the street

Ooh.
Look at the engineer.
Let's go, Parks.
Let's go, Parks.
Drop the beat out.
All right, Rory.
All right, Rory.
We don't need to hear the whole Kelsey diss track.
What the fuck is going on here?
That's your sucking dick behind my back, bitch.
That was my dick that sucked.
Look who women fight about.
Yo, I say all the time, if there's a stat that shows the amount of times that Dick has broken up a seemingly amazing friendship between women.
It happens a lot.
We up.
It happens a lot.
We up.
I saw somebody that will remain nameless tweet.
Two women are fighting over a 5'3 weirdo.
Try to tell me men aren't the prize listen did y'all
pull anything
from this
from this diss track
she told a little bit
I pulled a lot
she told a little bit
y'all pulled a lot
from it but again
this is something
that I'm kind of
just like
minding your business
staying out of
it's in the courts now
yeah too late
for all this
all of this shit
is just like
whatever man
I'm about to really sit I'm about really sit with these lyrics for a little while.
Yeah, I got to let this digest.
I got to hear this on the bigs in the car.
Yeah.
That's a fact.
West Side Highway at 2 in the morning.
Never that.
Hey, let me tell you.
That's one of my best places to hear music.
Like on the West Side Highway at nighttime, just slow drive.
Never the new Kelsey.
Sorry.
You gotta let it rock.
Nah, I'm cool.
Well, I don't know.
Will Meg reply?
No.
Well, I hope not.
I didn't think Kelsey
was gonna give us a go.
I mean, is she really an MC
if she doesn't reply to this?
That's true.
It's not hip hop
unless you don't respond.
True.
I did see somebody say
you can't make a
Who Shot Your Remix
if you got shot.
I'm not trying to be funny.
Somebody said that.
All right, forget it.
Never mind.
Where's hip hop going?
I don't know if we're supposed
to edit that out.
I don't think we should.
Nah.
Nah, you can't edit that out.
These days, you're not even
supposed to laugh.
Roy, get your laugh on, man.
Get your show.
Kelsey, I don't know if you
started a music career or what.
And I certainly do not mean to joke about this very serious situation.
But is this her debut?
Kelsey?
I didn't know she.
I like that.
I like people that don't rap airing out their grievances in a rap with people.
No, I don't.
I hate that.
I'm not really into that. I'm the total opposite. I'm not into that. Leave it in the rap.ing out their grievances in a rap with people. No, I don't. I hate that. Yeah, I'm not really into that.
I'm the total opposite.
Yeah, I'm not into that.
Leave it in the rap.
Stay out of the booth.
Period.
Where else she was going to get it off at?
Where all the girls get it on IG Live.
Bah.
She get an IG Live this one.
This is like one of them straight to DVD releases.
Well, she IG Lived a few times.
And we're not going to stay on this too much longer.
It's kind of over already. But she IG Lived a few times. And we're not going to stay on this too much longer. It's kind of over already.
But she IG-lived a few times and didn't give too much information.
This is the first time that we've heard from her extensively regarding the subject.
So, listen, we pray for everybody involved.
Still, I understand how that could be a traumatic situation for not just Meg, but everybody.
Prayers to Meg, for sure.
Not just Meg, but everybody that was there that alters your life.
Mostly Meg.
Yeah, absolutely.
Mostly Meg, yeah. Mostly Meg, but everybody that was there. That alters your life. Mostly Meg. Yeah, absolutely. Mostly Meg, yeah.
Mostly Meg, yes.
Yeah, I'm not sending out prayers for the gunmen.
No.
But it is getting a little...
Or will make it.
That nigga is kind of just coasting, though.
It's like that came and went.
He's got an audience.
He's got a capsule coming.
They're commenting under the pics, the videos. He's got a capsule coming. They're commenting under the pics, the videos he's promoting.
Hip-hop is a strange place where you can just have an audience anywhere.
It don't really kind of matter anymore.
Just wait it out a little bit and hop right back out?
Listen, man.
Yeah.
That's sick.
What if he puts fire out?
Listen, the question was never, we know he's talented.
Yeah, but I haven't listened to any of his music since any of this stuff.
And I haven't purchased any of his music.
But that's been a commitment from me.
Because I do enjoy his music.
So I've had to stand strong and you know what, nah.
Not yet.
Nah, I'm cool.
That's because of the type of person that you are.
You're like, yo, listen, fam, get this situation straight
and let us see, figure out what happened,
and then we'll know if we can come back and support you.
And I think that's what most men are taking.
But that's where I hate the internet.
And now I'm on a fucking rant.
We're supposed to be getting into music.
But that's where I hate the internet.
Because before I was able to compartmentalize
or just not know that some of my favorite artists were shitheads
or just did shit that some of my favorite artists were shitheads or just did shit that compromised
me morally today it's like we know a lot about people now so it's like if you don't align with
the right side of it's tough to hear certain songs that's all like i'm gonna shout today i put a
playlist on and fucking his 112 tory's 112 remake on his last chicksicks tape came on. I was like, damn, I forgot how hard this is.
But fuck.
Nah.
I cut it off.
I got to shout.
Yeah.
Because it just wasn't right with me.
All right, new music.
New music.
New music.
We didn't want to start.
Juicy J.
Bad Bunny.
Either one.
Jimmy.
Busta again somehow.
The deluxe deluxe.
The triple disc?
Let's start with Juicy J
because Parks was
pretty good with Walker.
Hey!
Body yada yada yada yada yada
yada yada yada yada yada
yada yada yada yada.
They're cousins.
That wasn't Juicy J.
They're cousins though.
Are they?
Meg definitely did.
Not in real life,
but I'm just saying.
Juicy did a lot of
Meg's records.
Meg took some of that sauce.
Oh, that's what I wanted
to go back to. He did the Sciss of that sauce. Oh, that's what I wanted
to go back to.
He did the Scissor record.
Hold up.
That's what I wanted
to go back to.
The negative connotation
with adding someone's sauce
to your sauce.
Influence.
Yeah, influence.
How did that come up earlier?
You was talking about
Eminem and Cam.
I'm saying,
do y'all believe
there to be a negative connotation
when that subject comes up
and why?
I don't think it's a negative connotation when that subject comes up and why i don't think it's a negative negative connotation if because the only reason i say it is because the the praise and acclaim that eminem has received in his career i think it's important
to point out that you know cam had that style and was that some of that content early on so i think
it's you know it's just saluting cam like
you know that was you that you had that sound you had that style you were rapping like that but
because you're from the city you're from you're from harlem you have a certain look it wasn't
it was people knew it was it took a certain skill level and it was talent but it was kind of like
fuck is cam talking about almost you know i mean it was a little bit of that but then when m does
it it's accepted because he's a white boy from the midwest and it's like okay we can kind of we
see that but you from the streets of harlem and you play ball and the girls like you and you can
dress and you were driving benzes and then you rapping like that it just didn't it was like yo
what the fuck is cam talking about but it was still dope it was like yo he's spitting but the
masses didn't gravitate towards it like they should have but it's just pointing out the fact that cam had that style and then somebody came and obviously
because like park said uh big l influenced eminem and big l cam that's all the same family so it's
only right to point to the fact that cam had that style early on it's just paying homage to cam
that's all it is there's a lot of juicy j J DNA out here currently. I mean, Meg especially.
Yeah.
Which I'm sure she said that.
I think that he executive produced her Fever or whatever it was.
I think.
She has a lot of flow that's very Juicy J meets Pimp C.
He's definitely done a lot of beats for her.
Yeah, that's the Memphis bounce, the South bounce.
Yeah.
That 3-6 Mafia is known for.
There's nothing wrong with the influence.
It's when you just completely jack somebody's style
and you're literally intimidating them.
But it's different if they die with them.
You know what I'm saying?
Is where I think the hate comes in
or the negative connotation of it is.
Like, yeah, you want to be influenced by somebody,
that's fine,
but just straight ripping their shit off
is kind of weird to me.
If there was an
era and if there was an era of hip-hop that you would pick to try to get on in a demographic like
a region it wouldn't have been harlem in the 90s like i'm sitting here just thinking listening to
y'all harlem in the 90s you would not know yeah no cam and l and well yeah but that's why it's
important was coming to harlem and yeah but i said that's why it's important to- Hov was coming to Harlem and-
Yeah, but I said that's why it's important that Mase gets the praise that he deserves
because Mase birthed a lot of these rappers.
Like a lot of them.
Like Mase, his style, his look, like he birthed a lot of these rappers.
And it's just that sometimes they don't get their just due because it was a short stint.
Yeah.
But it was a very impactful, very important stint, though.
Like, when I think of Mase, I try to think of his highs because that's how I experienced him.
Mase kept the lights on that bad boy for years.
It was short.
He wrote a lot of shit.
And I'm not going to say that.
Huh?
I'm not going to say that.
Why not?
He was writing everything.
Yeah, Mase definitely kept the lights on for a while. I'm not going to say that. Huh? I'm not going to say that. Why not? He was writing everything. After Big.
After Big.
Kept the lights on for a bit.
He did.
This was after Big I'm talking.
Mase wrote a lot of shit.
He was selling a lot of records.
He was a superstar.
Yeah.
Who's the guy now at the label that's tasked with actually going out to find that person
in the streets?
Well, we don't look in the streets anymore.
No. You look at the numbers. Right? You in the streets anymore. No, you look at Instagram.
You're on your phone.
Yeah, look at Instagram.
It comes to you.
That's why, again, back to the point I said years ago,
it's easier to be heard and get on now.
Because everything comes right here.
I can hear a kid from Midwest that's super dope
that I would have never heard about
if it wasn't for smartphones and social media.
I would have had gone to the Midwest.
That's got to make it real easy to executives today.
That's got to make it real easy to executives today. That's got to make it
real easy to executives today.
It is.
If I'm only going by data
and I'm not going by pulse
and feel
and what's going on
in the city.
But that's why
it's tough for executives.
It may be easy
to go to your company
and say,
we should sign this person
because they have
X amount of views
and X amount of followers,
but that doesn't really
equate to longevity in a career at
all we've seen that a million times people can get 10 billion views on youtube and let's sign
them and they suck in the next record and it's over no no my thing is it's easier to get on it's
not easy to stay on it's easy to be heard it's easy to be seen it's easier to get in these meetings
with and certain dudes i know now they'd be like yeah i was just at rock nation i was i met jay and i'm like how like you know how hard it is to get in front of jay like off of like one record that
went viral that's crazy to me that that artists can say that these days and it's a real thing
like you had to stand in front of the def jam building and hope you saw jay or kev or one of
these dudes walking from the car to the building but just just so we're clear, I don't put Jay in this box
because I assume Jay,
and I don't want to say Jay,
that's your family thing,
I'm not calling him that.
I don't want to put...
Jay-Z, whatever.
We all have family.
I don't put Hov in that
because I assume Hov
to have a pulse on everything
or have somebody
who has a pulse on everything.
For sure.
So I would think that he knows
the dude with the hot song
and he gonna walk by just to say,
yo, you got to keep it bubbling.
I think you're trash.
I think you're trash.
I'm serious.
Yeah, no, you were right.
That's what he told me when he walked by in Def J.
Yeah, say that, but I mean, might as well.
But you had a record booming.
You had a deal.
So imagine, Mo, my confidence is at an all-time high at 23.
I'm in there in Def J feeling like the man. Hey, all you old niggas got to get the fuck out. I'm in there in depth. You're feeling like the man.
Hey, all you old niggas got to get the fuck out.
I'm here now.
Here comes the walk by.
Yo, that's cool.
It's a cute song.
That's a cute song.
I can't wait to hear what you do next, though.
I'm like, next?
I was talking to-
I don't have anything next.
I'm running around.
This is it?
I'm spending my money.
Yo, Harry wants to get this one.
Yo, honestly.
I feel I made a lot of mistakes.
I don't have a next.
Yo,
when Kevin and them,
Kevin Lyle and them niggas
was looking for a second album
from Joe,
never that.
I was lit.
I was gone.
You wasn't thinking about that.
I'm never making another album.
But when certain people
say things like that.
Have you heard Pump It Up?
Yeah.
But when certain people
say things like that.
For the last three years.
You gotta take that
and apply it though. Like when certain people say, like if Jay tells you You got to take that and apply it though.
Like when certain people say,
like if Jay tells you that,
I understand how that can sting you
as a new artist,
like, huh?
But when you think about it
years later,
you understand what he was saying.
Like you get it.
You're like, okay, I understand
because it is,
you can have a record.
Well, yeah,
now that we're cool
and I'm a podcaster,
like y'all never caught that next one.
That next one.
That next one never came?
It was tough to get that.
You hear what I'm saying?
I'm going to put it down.
All right, forget it.
And listen,
hey, fuck y'all out there
for confirming that
I can't beat Will Smith
in a versus battle.
It's like, yo, Joe, bargain.
Yeah, sorry, Joe.
No, but then they put me
against Black Rob.
Oh, that's a nice little fight.
They said, whoa, beats Pump It Up, and I'm mad at that. I don't know. I'm mad at Ooh, that's a nice little fight. They said,
Whoa beats Pump It Up,
and I'm mad at that.
I don't know.
I'm mad at that.
That's a great record.
I think Pump It Up.
They said,
Whoa was a bigger record
than Pump It Up,
and I don't agree.
Pump It Up crossed
too many different...
It's dance.
It's...
Black Rob was dope, man.
I miss Black Rob.
His style was crazy.
Yeah, Black Rob was,
again, another short, but impactful skit. His style was crazy. Yeah, Black Rob was, again, another short but impactful skit.
It impacts me more.
See, I like Whoa as a record better than Pump It Up,
only because when the slow street record catch, it's different.
It's much different.
Like a fast record catch, all right, that's cool.
But the slower one, yeah, a moment in my life was impacted
by whoa yeah what was that shit what uh what do you play against can i live fam listen black rob
is a tough matchup that whole album is fire yeah but the kids today when you bring up black right
a lot of them don't even know what black rob is i know yeah they don't even know what black rob is
i know i said something about g-dep a few weeks ago And niggas was like I was like never mind
He's another one of us
I was like never mind
Just never mind
Don't worry about it
Man
Yeah
The good old days
Juicy J's album is great
With Bad Boy
We went on a wild tangent
We somehow found a way
To make this an East Coast conversation
Let's talk about Harlem
But quickly though
You have to give Bad Boy
That type of
credit because people
would look at-
For Juicy J.
For Juicy J.
For all of Juicy J's
success.
For people that would
think that Black Rob
and G-Dub would be
one hit wonders,
go back and look at
the time they put
into their albums.
They're still amazing
because Bad Boy and
Puff cared about
actual albums and shit.
True.
G-Dub has really
good albums.
Black Rob has a really good album.
I want to do a Juicy J appreciation
day next week sometime after you guys get a chance
to listen to the album. Juicy J?
Yeah. And 36 Mafia in general.
Legends. Well, the album that just came
out when you were playing it sounded
phenomenal. That shit is crazy.
That shit is one of my favorite albums of this year off of
12 hours.
Juicy J is
in the strip club celebrating right now.
Hello?
Hello, this is
Joe Budden from the Joe Budden Podcast.
May we speak to Juicy J,
please?
What's up, man? Juicy J, we love you,
man. Legend!
I didn't want nothing. I'm just calling to say we love you, man. Legend. Legend. I didn't want nothing.

Oh, man, you're'm okay. Oh, man.
You in a bad area, man.
Hey, Juice, call back.
Juice, call back, man.
I'm going to call right back.
Please, please, please.
Juice is stunning on it.
He said,
yeah, I'm flying over
Bermuda right now.
In the G5.
Don't worry about it.
Juicy J, right?
And I haven't gotten
all the way into this album yet.
Parks is telling me
it's amazing.
It was playing when I walked into the pod.
Yeah, it sounds real good.
And the first thing I thought was,
can Juicy J make not bad music,
but music that the consumer would feel is bad?
Juicy J is always in his bag,
and it's such a big bag.
That's the key, Joe.
He has perfected staying in his bag. That's the key, Joe. He has perfected staying in his bag.
That's the key.
And I'm jealous of it.
And it works.
It worked in 95.
It never doesn't work.
And it works.
Like, we was upstairs last night
and it was Rem.
Who likes new music?
But she'll be like,
oh, she's cool.
But she was like,
who is this?
This is crazy.
And I was with Brian's girl
who listens like, not Taylor Swift, but like white folk girl music. This is crazy. And I was with Brian's girl who listens like,
not Taylor Swift,
but like white folk girl music.
This is great.
White folk music.
I'm like,
that's crazy.
This shit is appealing
to everyone in this room right now.
Because it's juicy.
What he does is
he invites you to his world
as an artist.
Like if he does a song with you,
he's not trying to catch a wave.
Yeah.
He's staying true to what he does
and it's really just that sound, that bounce. Has caught up to him. Right. And he's not trying to catch a wave yeah he's staying true to what he does and it's really
just that sound that bounce has caught up to him right yeah and he's just like okay let me invite
some of the newer acts in that can catch this bounce yo that's his way crazy on that shit yeah
and it's but that's what it is when you got those hard beats like that conway on a like a typical
you wouldn't even expect conway and juicy j to do a track i want to hear i want to hear
but that's what he that's what he does he knows his lane he stays up we got action Like a typical. You wouldn't even expect Conway and Juicy J to do a track. I want to hear it. I want to hear it.
But that's what he does.
He knows his lane and he stays in it.
We got action.
Hello?
Yo.
What's up, man?
There we go.
A little better, Juicy.
How you feeling, man?
Man, I'm good, man.
Yo.
Just chilling with the fam.
Why won't you fall off?
I love music man I love music
You know what I'm saying
It just
It just
I love it
Like every day
I'm always working on
Some kind of music
Even when I'm with my kids
Sometimes I'm just
Thinking about music
You know
I'm always
Creating in my head
Some kind of way
You know But we were just talking
about do you think that the current sound and music or the current vibe and music vibe i like
that has caught up to where you've been your whole career oh yeah most definitely yeah yeah most
definitely did you find i mean you listen to the flows and the beats and everything.
It's like the stuff we used to do back in the day, you know?
Right.
Yeah.
Did you find somebody that was bold enough to want to match up with you in the Versus?
I wouldn't.
Not yet, man.
I'm waiting on them to call me and let me know because, you know, my catalog speaks for itself. So, I mean, I'm ready to battle whomever, man.
You know what i'm saying yeah but i feel like verses would really serve somebody like you that maybe maybe the younger generation is not so aware of all that you've done right
like that's what i want for you true true hey make the calls man
nah i don't know who to fucking pitch you against.
I don't know.
That's a tough smoke.
It is.
Who wants that?
Nobody.
Because I saw the names you was naming.
It's like you naming the goatee goat niggas. I can see a bum B maybe or something like that representing the whole UGK.
Juicy J and Pharrell.
See, he get right to the gods.
Hey, he get right to the gods.
Juicy J.
I mean, look, man.
I'm a god.
A god versus another god.
Hey, I know you a god.
But Pharrell is who we going to say first?
I mean, look, man.
You got to put yourself on a high step, man.
You know what I'm saying? I never put myself on a low step. I mean, I love Pharrell, to put yourself on a high step, man. You know what I'm saying?
I never put myself on a low step.
I love Pharrell, man.
One of my favorite producers, man.
So, hey, why not battle?
You know, he got a crazy catalog.
I got a crazy one, too, now.
That's a fact, though.
You know what I'm saying?
No, that's a big fact.
The Conway feature, that was definitely not one I saw happen in that collab.
How did that come about?
Man, I just hit him up.
I hit him up on Instagram
He hit me back
And uh
Man he cool as fuck man
You know what I'm saying
We made that happen
And I listen to Griselda
You know what I'm saying
Like it didn't just start from there
I've been listening to their stuff man
They stuff hard man
Like the boys got some bars man
You know
Salute to them man
They doing real good
And also
I gotta say this
While I have him on the phone
Not just cause he's on the phone
Juicy J is one of the nicest
Kindest people in hip-hop.
So I could see how he would give...
No, he was really cool
when he did Nicki's podcast.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that's right.
He was really cool.
Yeah, exactly.
So I could see how
some of those relationships occur
because Griselda's super cool, too.
Yeah, for sure.
Yeah, they're cool.
Yeah, appreciate it, man.
You got another dope album, man.
We was just sitting here talking about it.
Yeah, that's all we wanted.
We just wanted to tell you
you're amazing and great and we love you. Hey, man, thank you, man. We was just sitting here talking about it. Yeah, that's all we wanted to tell you.
You're amazing and great, and we love you.
Hey, man, thank you, man.
You know what I'm saying?
Until everybody goes streaming now, John,
let's try to hit number one on Billboard.
The hustle continues.
Juicy J, this is not an ad.
His label didn't tell me to do any of this.
We just fuck with Juicy up here,
so much so that he's the only man I'll refer to as Juicy.
Hey, Juicy, thank you, man.
We love you.
Hey, man.

Real pistol, nigga
Mines is on my hip

She know I'm richer.
Why you dudes is posting pictures?
I'm posted with the gang.
Yeah, I'm posted with the...
I didn't know I needed to hear that.
What's wrong with him?
What's his attitude about?
What's his problem?
He woke up on the wrong side of the bed.
He got a couple dope Logic records on here.
On Juicy's album?
Yeah.
That 1995 beat is crazy.
You know what it is?
Juicy is one of the gentlemen that if he calls you,
you deliver.
Yeah, yeah.
It don't matter what his status is
to the casual fan in the public.
Niggas that are in hip-hop,
you delivering them when Juicy J calls you.
Logic included.
That 1995 beat is perfect
for Logic
when we like to hear him.
Soulful trap shit.
It was good.
What I was doing when Bands was out?
It's one of the greatest moments of my life,
what I was doing when bands was out.
That was a huge one.
Oh, it took the quietest of girls and made them heifers.
Oh, you little heifers love this tune.
It was definitely a heifers tune.
What?
That was a heifers anthem.
Hey, the heifers tune is a Joe tune.
That was a heifers anthem.
I'm throwing that on.
Yeah, for sure. I didn't have no anthem. Hey, the Heffa's tune is a Joe tune. That was the Heffa's anthem. I'm throwing that on. Yeah, for sure.
I didn't have no bands.
Yeah, they were dancing.
But they was dancing.
I was like, all right, you don't need bands.
But I'll sing along.
And I feel like Juicy J was what we say about 2 Chainz,
where the people that love lyricists still fuck with them
and have them in that high tier.
And then people that just like party music have him high.
That's another hook that one of us in this room should have come up with.
Bands will make her dance?
Yo, I think bands will make her dance.
I think bands will make her dance.
She's sitting down now.
But if I pull these bands out, she's going to start dancing.
She will gyrate.
It's a simple thing.
I don't know why we don't think of these choruses.
I don't.
He got a record with J-Rock.
That's crazy.
This album's really dope.
Really dope.
Shout out to the legend.
I wish promoting albums was back.
I didn't know it was coming out until it came out.
I was like, oh, shit.
Juicy, huh?
And then I couldn't.
Certain albums, they take a while to come up on Apple.
So I was like, let me put on Juicy.
Shoot, this is sounding like, man.
Smacked your head over.
Oh, man.
Lit something up.
Poured a drink.

It was Christmas season, holiday season.
So, you know, it's hustle time, man.

There's no lit music on that record at all.

But I'm fully equipped.
Hit-Boy, I can't wait to tap dance on his shit.
You dig?
But I'll tell you what.
What?
This El Capo right here, I hope niggas is listening because I'm really saying a lot
of shit that might be going over a lot of people's heads and shit like that.
So for me, this is one of those.
They're probably not going to get half the shit I was saying.
But you know it's all good like that.
Yeah, I can't wait.
The weekend, we got to take this album in.
Jim, I just want to honestly, I just want to come to Harlem and sit on a stoop with you.
I just want to hang out one day.
Well, you want to set that up.
Well, you want to set that up. Well, you want to set that up.
You know, we have a dance studio up here for the kids.
We'll be an after-school program for the kids.
We'll be teaching choreography and stuff like that.
So, you know, y'all can actually come up here and do the whole podcast in the dance studio
if you want to.
I could lock it down and you can go and y'all can set up and shit like that.
And we could really do a whole day at Harlem.
Damn, I'm from Harlem.
That would be awesome.
Yeah, 100%. That's nothing. That that's our spot that's our real estate it's his family this is chrissy's brother who does that for the kids and we fully endorse and support him and help
him out so we got that's the interest in the spot but it's all for the kids our go hard dance studio

All type of dances
From African to hip hop
To you know
That whole type of stuff
You know what I mean
That's dope
While I have you
I have to tell you
That you
That you and French shit
As a native New Yorker
Touched my soul
That was important That was important.
That was important.
That was huge.
I won't really get into why it was huge, but it was great.
Thank you.
It was huge for me.
Two shouts to French, man.
For those who don't know, we had a couple of discrepancies throughout the years and things like that.
Maybe past 10 years and stuff like that, we haven't been seeing eye to eye. Above all it was it was great for the
culture. Through the madness of it nobody was critically injured
anything like that so at this point you know it was put our best foot forward we
getting we grown men there you know what I mean. Shout out to the French. We got some more
things in store too but it was dope that night we shut down the bridge in Harlem and the Bronx on 145th Street Bridge.
I mean, that was awkward big.
I ain't never seen that one done before.
So, shout out to the people.
Nobody was out there tripping.
You know what I mean?
Like, you know, we got one off.
We wasn't trying to hold up no traffic and truck up any routes or anything.
But for the split second, it was a real lovely thing.
I mean, I think that it won't be duplicated in probably
the time we alive. I mean, so
shout out to French, man. Shout out to everybody from the Bronx.
Shout out to everybody at Bad Boy. Shout out to Diddy.
Shout out to Revolve for giving me
the weather show, man. I appreciate y'all over there on that side.
Yes, yes, yes. New Revolve show.
Shout out to the Rock Nation also, you heard?
Shout out to the Rock Nation people.
Jim, do you subscribe to niggas
calling Harlem, what we saying, Nobra? Noma. Noma. North Manhattan. They try to run that, but to the rock nation people jim jill do you subscribe to niggas to niggas calling harlem
um what we said no bro noma noma north manhattan they tried to run that but they're on noma
no ho or whatever the shit they're trying to turn it into i mean you know it's um
you know is this they're gentrifying the whole harlem and we can't talk about it all the time
it might be 11 blocks left that's not gentrified and things like that. So we're trying to put a different spin on it.
Historically and culturally,
when you think of Harlem,
we think about the Renaissance,
but people that's not our complexion
think of Harlem
and they always think about
the negative.
And I guess they're trying to
paint a different picture
and it's always going to be Harlem
no matter what.
We still set every trend.
This is the place
where you got to come to
if you want style like this
Vince from cab Calloway and then things like that and I do appreciate them fixing about my ghetto and things like that
Cuz it don't ain't nothing like a facelift, but they definitely didn't include our people
More inside of this gentrification instead of charter move us out as much as they try to do now
That's well said you know, that's a word. That's well said. Yeah, no, that's a word.
That's a word.
Well, listen, congrats on the album.

I think Yachty did put out new music.
He did.
I didn't hear it, but...
Yachty? Did he?
Yeah.
I think, like, The Boat 3.5 or something.
Hey, my brother from Another Mother.
Is that your brother from Another Mother?
Lil Boat?
Yes.
I can see the resemblance.
Yeah, that's my brother.
Yeah, Lil Boat? Yes. I can see the resemblance. Yeah, that's my brother. All right.
Yeah, Lil Boat 3.5.
Congratulations to Lil Yachty on a new album.
Wait, you put out an album?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or maybe it's a- No, no, no, no.
This is a deluxe.
Oh, yeah, it is.
Yeah, this is a deluxe of Lil Boat 3.5.
Boat came out.
Boat came out, and Meg crashed the boat on 42.
You remember that?
Huh?
Huh?
Exposed you. Exposed you.
It is funny when people try to expose you for something.
You're like, all right, so.
Like, fam, I did crash.
Yeah.
Yeah, I was drinking 1942.
I was twisted.
Driving a boat.
Throwing it to our Bad Bunny analyst.
Bad Bunny's the man.
Parks Bunny.
Somebody on Twitter told me now that he's retiring,
Parks is sad bunny.
He's not retiring, though.
This is like a concept album.
Yeah, he's getting rid of that category.
Parks knows all about fucking Bad Bunny.
All right, so it went over my head.
Wait, we didn't get any of that stuff?
No, we didn't.
Oh.
We're here.
He just needed the times.
Got it, got it, got it.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, Bad Bunny, but a new album.
He did a teaser saying that he was going to retire,
but it's a concept album about being on tour in 2023
or some crazy shit.
I don't fully understand exactly where he's going,
but it's a really good album.
It's more dark.
It's more emo.
I've only listened to it twice, but I really enjoy it.
But he has two platinum albums this year enjoy it but he has two platinum albums
this year
and if he has three platinum albums
in one year
I would imagine
this one's probably gonna go platinum
yeah
that's insane
this goes back to what I said
a few weeks ago
having a Latin artist
in a streaming era
is almost a cheat code
yeah
is he gay?
no
is he bisexual?
I don't know about that
but he has a girlfriend
or did have a girlfriend I don't know if they but he has a he has a girlfriend or did have
a i don't know if they're still together fiance because i want to add that that to what you're
saying like being fluid man you know that a latin artist in the streaming era is is crazy i'm looking
at the uh the wiki for his his last album and i don't know how there's a parentheses that says
latin so i don't know if this changed anything but the one that came out in March
is 19 times platinum.
Yeah. Jesus Christ. And I don't know if
it says Latin in parenthesis
so I don't know if they have a different measuring stick.
Maybe that means worldwide. I don't
know but either way. How many streams
do you need to go 19 times platinum?
A lot.
A trillion? Yeah.
Like I said I don't know if there's a different designation for the Latin Platinum Award,
but that's still impressive no matter what.
And he had an album with J Balvin, right?
That was last year, though.
But he had a B-Sides album that came out in the summertime, too, which is also Platinum.
Yeah, I mean, I don't understand what he's saying, but music is feeling.
That's fire.
And his music is really dope, though.
He does make good music. Yeah, his music is dope. Parks, is fire. And his music is really dope, though. He does make good music.
Yeah, his music is dope.
Parks, you feel like he bit the St. John cover?
It might be the same artist.
It could be.
If it is, shout out to Brando for doing the Bad Bunny.
Bad Bunny is like bands.
He makes them dance.
Yeah, for sure.
Absolutely.
That's what I got.
And that thing he did when he was driving through the city, different boroughs, performing,
that was like, that's some legendary shit.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
But is he from Harlem too?
Did J. Cole walk to SOBs?
Probably.
Probably.
I can see that.
No, he didn't.
Remember?
That's a J. Cole thing.
And they had a million people following him to SOBs.
Yeah.
Thinking it's the 200 cap.
Yeah.
Y'all are not getting it.
J. Cole, you can't do a pop-up.
That's dope that he still does shit like that.
I like when artists know that they're
bigger than that.
No, he's not still doing that.
He's not going to do that today.
But I can see him doing that.
Well, no, he did that Dollar and a Dream tour
well into his fame.
Like, J., he does shit like that.
I think that shit is cool.
Yeah.
Remember when Hove took the train to the Barclays Center?
Two stops.
Stole that from Cole.
I mean, it's a significant two stops, though.
It's not like a Manhattan two stops.
I feel like he would tell us, too.
Yo, Cole came up with a great idea.
Like, he would let us in on that one.
That train shit was nuts.
It was.
We turned everything into a New York conversation.
That was a North Carolina conversation we were having.
It started because Bad Bunny did throw a concert
through all the boroughs in New York.
I was just talking about that.
That was pretty dope.
Yeah, but the album's great.
I can't wait to listen to it more.
I still listen to the last two.
So, last three, really.
Shout out to Bad Bunny.
What a run, though.
What a run.
If he has three platinum albums in the U what a run though what a run if he has
three platinum albums in the u.s crazy he definitely he's the latin dmx he definitely will bro bad
money is not the latin dmx i will not let you let let you talk about the dog man like that all right
don't say nothing oh let's leave him out there

I can't shoot my rollout
cause of COVID
Rory actually has good music on his album.
He's going to be so sad if people don't hear it.
No, the people are going to hear it.
I'm pausing because for my rollout, I have to shoot a bunch of shit,
and I can't shoot it in all these locations because of fucking COVID.
That's why I was saying this COVID shit has been annoying me work-wise.
It's pausing everything that I had planned.
Shooting Atlanta and now Houston.
I can't.
It has to be New York.
Okay.
I didn't get banned from Atlanta.
I thought that was mall.
No, I thought your fiance might have banned you from Atlanta.
She banned me from anywhere but my house.
I'm not even supposed to be here.
You can't go there.
You can Zoom.
She was so happy when Joe got going,
oh, finally, you guys can just go back to Zoom.
You're being engaged and explaining the work trip down to the A?
Down to the A.
To the A.
It's got to make this quick run.
Yeah, yeah, quick run.
It's always a quick run.
Quick run.
And then he finds himself.
Why your phone always blow up that night?
You know, why is it as men, anytime we want to go do something,
we have to pretend like we don't want to do it?
Like, ugh, I have to go to Houston.
Like, oh, yo, I'm so tired.
I don't even want to do this.
I wish Cam could just go by himself.
I'll probably just be in my hotel room the whole time.
Like, ugh, we're back on the road with the podcast, and we're doing the Florida run.
Oh, it's so hot down there.
I hate my Florida.
Oh, yo, that Florida run.
Oh, yo, Florida run.
Oh, I hate Miami. Another, you're going to Florida. You're going to Florida. Oh, I got Florida to run. Oh, I hate Miami.
Another week in LA.
Fuck.
Another week in California.
Oh, all my friends are out there.
There's so much work to do.
There's so much traffic in Houston right now.
I can never enjoy myself when I'm there.
When I'm there. When I'm there.
Oh my God.
Oh, that's pretty funny.
All right.
Great week of music.
Are we done with music?
Are we done with music?
Yeah, if we missed you guys and you put something out, sorry.
We'll talk about it.
That's the best thing about being single.
You can express excitement now.
If my man called with a fun idea, I could scream at home.
Oh, yes. Let's go. When you're idea, I could scream at home. Oh, yes!
When you're single, you can openly
enjoy yourself.
You can openly be happy.
When you're single, you can extend the trip without
issues. I want to stay another day.
Just think about that theory.
I'm enjoying myself here.
Maybe I'll stay another day.
Oh, please.
That's a crisis.
You want to stay another day. Oh, please. You guys are single. That's a crisis. That's a woman's brain.
And it's like, wait. You want to stay another day?
And you're enjoying yourself?
Why are you enjoying yourself?
I'm not there.
Because of the heifers.
How could you be?
Because of the heifers.
There's mad heifers out here.
And they love me.
That's the problem.
When you're in a relationship and you find out the heifers love you, it's like, ah.
Won't dump her, but.
They laugh at my jokes.
They compliment me. They talk to me. I can see how the heifers love you it's like ah won't dump her but they laugh at my jokes they compliment me
they talk to me
I can see how the heifers
they listen
I can see how the heifers
make you cheat like
before you actually
decided to cheat
cause all the reasons
Rory just said
like the heifers
make you feel so good
you go home with like
some shit
you go home with
an attitude
like
you'll never make the bed
Rem has got a gun
pointed at my head
directly while you guys
are speaking
I'm sure
Rem know you got the heifers wait do women think Never make the bed. Rem has got a gun pointed at my head directly while you guys are speaking. Yeah, man.
Rem know you got the heffas.
Do women think that they're the only person that likes this guy?
Yes.
They think once they start liking you, that means everyone can't like you anymore.
Oh, hold up.
Now that we fell into that.
All the qualities that...
T.I. says something like this.
He said, no woman wants a man that other women don't want.
And I think they killed him for it.
Oh, he was wrong
because some women do want a man
that nobody wants,
but that's not the majority.
Yeah, it's definitely not the majority.
Chicks like a Nick.
Man, I'm not doing this with chicks.
No, they just get surprised
when all the qualities
that they loved about you,
other women still happen to like.
Yeah.
You're not that,
your taste isn't that dope
or that eclectic
that you just like my qualities
and no one else does.
They think you was only funny
to bag them.
No, bitch, I'm funny.
And people like it.
Like, have you ever told a joke
to the heifer
and she laughed
and you went home
to try to use the joke
on your girl
and she don't laugh
and you're like,
this is my fucking point.
You just don't get it.
It goes over your head every time.
No, they get it. They just don't think you funny. You're like, this is my fucking point. You just don't get it. It goes over your head every time. No, they get it.
They just don't think you're funny.
You repeated the joke on wifey?
Well, it worked.
You're a bald man.
It worked.
Tell me about the time where you confided in the heifer about all the strife you were
going through at home.
That's a dangerous game.
That's over the line.
I know, but you had to find that out somehow.
So tell me about the time that you found out that that was wrong
and you shouldn't have been doing that.
At a very young age.
Because all of us did that.
Everybody did it.
At the strip club most of the times.
At the strip club?
You're sitting in the stripper
sitting down,
you're having a conversation
and she's dancing.
The therapist stripper.
Yeah,
the therapist stripper is underrated.
You need the therapist stripper.
Yeah,
I think I found that
on my first many relationships
that I found out that was a thing.
The therapist stripper.
Yeah,
you know her.
She's a therapist.
You gotta pay her for the therapy. You looked relationships. The therapist stripper. Yeah, you know her. She's a therapist.
You got to pay her for the therapy.
You looked out.
I was feeling down.
Before you sat here, I was fucked up a little bit.
Thank you.
Chick with his ass.
You just pay a therapist, what, like 80 bucks an hour.
You just get the conversation.
You pay a stripper, you get a naked girl and a shoulder rub and a listener.
That's an investment.
That's just smart business. I get breakfast at the diner after if you wait long enough for her to count out.
Yeah.
You know how it goes, Joe.
None of us did end up beating a one-armed chick, right?
No.
Well, let me speak for myself.
No.
I'm not speaking for every gentleman in this room.
I don't know what y'all be doubling back to.
What's the longest you waited outside of a strip club when it closed for her to get out?
I woke up and the dude that was sweeping the street told me to move the car. Spent the longest you waited outside of a strip club when it closed for her to get out? I woke up in the dude
that was sweeping the
street.
Told me to move the car.
Spent the night in the
parking lot.
The street sweeper
knocked on the door.
He's like, yo, fam, you
got to move.
We trying to clean up.
Bitch text me from home
like, yo, you asleep?
Didn't want to wake you.
Fam, fam, fam, fam, fam.
I'm in the parking lot
naked.
What the fuck is wrong

You was butt ass
in the car waiting for you
yeah I thought
I had action coming
in the passenger seat too
you got your license right
you were gonna give her
some Rodeo
oh man
oh my god
you know the worst part
about that
we sharing too much now
we gotta turn this volume down
the worst part about that
is when she come out
with friends
now the friends see
you've been sitting there
for three hours
oh yeah you a must you gotta drop her friend off it's along the way The worst part about that is when she come out with friends. Now, the friends see you've been sitting there for three hours.
Oh, yeah.
You a mutt.
You got to drop her friend off.
It's along the way.
It's the exit before mine.
It's never.
It's never.
It's on the other side of town.
We're not even going anywhere. She lives by Van Cortlandt Park.
You're going to Staten Island.
Can you drop my friend off?
All right, listen, man.
Kevin Hart.
Yeah.
What's up with Kevin?
Kevin Hart turned the chatty house into a frenzy by showing up and replying to some of the negative criticism that he's received on his latest stand-up on Netflix.
What's it called?
I Don't Give a Fuck.
Zero fucks given.
He gives mad fucks.
Well, he gave a lot of fucks as the rollout.
But you as the king, as the chatty king.
Chatty king.
Did he check in with you before he went on the block?
The crazy part is
no Rory.
Wow.
Can you believe it?
Well that's why
I got his chain snatched.
Well you guys said
that he owns the block.
Now I got to put his face
in the sand.
Some would say
he was an investor right?
Yeah from my understanding
I don't think that's a fact.
Don't do that.
I'm joking.
Do you think he's
a muscle bound man?
What if Kevin Hart
gave me the beats?
It could happen.
Niggas in L.A. can't do nothing but work out.
Y'all be up mad early with your trainer.
Losers.
That is true.
Look at you berating people.
Nigga, why don't you sleep late for a change?
See, I like this type of Kevin.
I like that caption.
This is what it's supposed to be.
Kevin Hart says, Zero fucks given, relax. Comedic rock. This is what it's supposed to be. Don't make it too... Kevin Hart says,
Zero fucks given.
Relax.
Comedic rock star shit.
Go watch Zero Fucks Given now on Netflix.
Netflix is a joke.
Let me make this clear.
This is not an apology.
This is common sense.
Also, this is why I made this special.
This is why.
Now go stream that bitch.
Let's go.
It's comedy, not politics.
Let me just tell you, gentlemen.
Keep it right there.
Maul, I have a hard time
when comedians explain themselves. Yeah, like, come on, man. Like, I have a hard time when comedians explain themselves.
Yeah, like, come on, man.
I have a hard time with that.
I hate when comedians explain themselves.
Like, I get it.
Kevin Hart is the biggest comedian in the world, biggest comedic actor.
He has relationships with Hollywood, high-powered people in Hollywood.
Sponsorships.
But Kev can't respond to everything.
You can't,
and you shouldn't respond to everything.
I think he should stop that.
Yeah, you gotta...
Especially when your shit's called
Zero Fucks Given.
Yeah, like you can't give a fuck
after you just dropped
a special called Zero Fucks Given.
Yeah, but I told y'all
the marketing for his last few stand-ups
and docs and specials has been,
yo, I'm giving it to you raw and uncut now.
Unfiltered. I don't even care about it care about this about to be so cutting edge daring like it's been that so when you roll out that way and we don't receive
that listen i don't want to go all over the place the topic was on the chatty house is kevin hart
funny and kevin hart was in the room i wasn't in
the room the entire time but he was basically responding to uh criticism in his own way
do you guys think kevin hart is funny and why is that one simple sentence such a room shaker
i do think he's funny i just don't think that his stand-ups as of late have been all that funny
yeah i think kevin hart is very funny i that his stand-ups as of late have been all that funny. Yeah, I'm taking part in it. I think Kevin Hart
is very funny. His stand-ups
as of late have not.
That statement, is Kevin Hart funny?
Yes, Kevin Hart is funny. 100%.
Now, are you going to laugh?
Has Kevin Hart been funny lately?
Even in his last zero-funk, it was funny moments in it.
Overall, was it like a classic stand-up?
No, but it was funny moments.
Well, too many extremes. It was funny moments. Was it a classic?up? No, but it was funny moments. Well, too many extremes.
It was funny moments.
Was it a classic?
No.
No, but I'm just...
Those are two different sides of the fence here.
The question is, or the statement was, Kevin Hart isn't funny.
They started a room in Clubhouse called Kevin Hart Isn't Funny, or Is Kevin Hart Funny?
But that room wasn't started out of osmosis.
It was started because there's a bunch of people that watched the new stand-up and said,
what the fuck is this including me now my understanding of the business and what's going on is different so i've
been stopped judging kevin hart kevin hart is way too huge pause for me to just keep him in the
comedian box like he's a businessman he's an actor he he has transcended absolutely comedy absolutely so i
no longer judge him solely as a comedian but if i did nah this is horrible if i'm judging you that
way now i get it kevin hart is so big that he's playing the scale game he's playing the volume
game like i have that understanding too like kevin hart and his team
i don't think they're writing jokes for me anymore no it's for a wider audience
yeah it's for white people i'm not doing that sure it's for white people
uh it's for white people okay i don't know what that means but what it means is
it's trimmed the fat is trimmed and it's cleaned down so that, like Rory said, a wider audience can accept it and appreciate it.
But when we say wider, we're talking about wider, wider.
We are already white for sure.
And I fight that because there are ways to go for a wider audience.
Chris Rock is Chris Rock.
But when I hear Chris Rock is going to be somewhere I know he's about to talk to me
and he's huge
when Dave is going to be somewhere
granted they conduct business
very differently
but that's going to be
a point of mine later too
but when Dave is somewhere
I know he's about to talk to me
because it's still important to him
even
pardon me
even though he has a white audience
so Kev's whole thing is
I want to be a successful businessman I don't know I don't know that he's trying to be the
best comedian in the world so I don't knock him for it but my point for him is even as a businessman
this type of shit resonates like if it how you move in your business, no matter how successful you are, like, how Dave goes about his business is very different.
And I like that.
Like, that's attractive to me.
Like, he pops up when he needs to pop up.
He don't pander.
He speaks to people.
He goes away.
He fucking runs over.
He just doesn't take any check that's thrown his way.
I like that.
Kev's business is mass.
So he's not going about it that way, but that's identifiable.
Like, you can recognize that in looking at him.
For you to be bad at comedy, not saying he was,
because some people think it might have been funny,
but for this to be the reaction and your home, something is off there.
It is.
And for you to deny that criticism, it would be arrogant.
I'm not saying he did that because I wasn't in that room the whole time.
But that would be arrogance for you to deny that criticism.
That's all I'm saying.
And like you said, as a comedian, you shouldn't have to explain your shit.
It takes away any point to a shouldn't have to explain your shit as any type of artist honestly
it takes away any point
to a joke
to have to explain it
like that's
and the name of your show
is called
Zero Fucks Given
stop giving the fuck
yeah but that's marketing
because you do give a fuck
yeah well that's
you give all the fucks
in the world
that's what the problem is
but that's what has made
Kev so successful
is that he cares
about everyone's opinion
he's trying to cater
to so many people
listen to legends of comedy richard prye would never apologize he should not be in a clubhouse
room explaining his doc or explaining jokes or explaining anything dave would never eddie murphy
would never and these are the caliber of people listen they're different people though no fuck that kev is the one that told us i'm
looking to break eddie murphy's record he said that yeah he put himself right next to him and
that's i didn't i didn't say that okay that has nothing to do my point i said they're different
people they're not yes they're different people i'm not gonna argue i'm not gonna argue that point
yes they're different they are different people but i never thought to look at it that way until
he said it.
Outside of the obvious, they have gone about their careers completely different.
The content in which their stand-up is completely different.
The content of their movies is completely different.
How they play the game is completely different.
Like, no, I'm not putting them in any category.
I'm not comparing them.
Kev went about his shit one way.
Eddie, Dave, the three of them went in their shit different
ways all of them true so yeah i'm not going to compare the two and this has nothing to do talent
wise that's all subjective as well who can we compare food you can't you can't debate with
someone about food like that no fuck your logic bro in our in our culture we have to find someone
to compare people to so listen to me Who do we compare Kev to?
Who is it alright
for us to compare him to?
As far as a comedian?
Eddie Murphy would be
the comparison
as far as them both
being huge movie stars
and huge brands.
That would be the closest
but we've still never seen
Nick Kev.
And niggas never tried
Eddie's comedian tip
when the movies were out.
Well, he stopped doing
stand-up too.
Yeah.
Or at least,
no.
So why won't Kev? So then why won't Kev? when the movie's out. Well, he stopped doing stand-up too. Yeah. Or at least, no, he stopped doing stand-up.
So then why won't Kev?
So then why won't Kev?
That may be the question.
Maybe you aren't,
and maybe,
and I want to preface all this
because I may have critiqued Kev before
and he may have been offended by the critique
and he is someone I enjoy
and fuck with.
So I want to preface this with that.
I want to say this.
It's important when niggas are sensitive.
You can't say when the first comedian
ever sold out
a fucking football stadium
by themselves,
why are you still doing stand-up?
You can't ask someone that.
Why won't Kev stop doing stand-up?
Because he's extremely successful at it.
It makes a lot of money from it.
But I think Joe was saying
it's not about the money no more.
It's about like because now.
Accolades.
Obviously now you're offended.
It's legacy now.
It shouldn't be about the money for him.
And on the outside looking in, it is.
Right.
It's the accolade and the legacy.
They're not just stand up though.
Even him replying, right?
Even him replying. When his stand up though even him replying right even him replying when
this stand-up dropped uh-huh when the stand-up dropped i noticed kev on my twitter timeline
a lot and i don't be on twitter a lot anymore to notice these things so that stood out to me
that okay you are retweeting a lot of these compliments the day of release from the people that rushed to see this hmm why cool as opposed to maybe promotion everyone does that when they put something out
yeah but people also do it when they're trying to stuff commentary to the bottom
uh sure but i think everyone does that let's let me retweet as many compliments as i can
that was day one we do it
with our podcast and push down some of the negative things that are said no i replied to them niggas
suck my dick the fuck is you talking about the best podcast in the world that's what
so that was day one but every day since then in its release he has been replying to criticism and on clubhouse he says
it's marketing it doesn't matter if we're driving the conversation then maybe you'll go back and
watch and watch the special which he has a point to some degree i totally disagree with all that
if you're starting at this i don't want to put a special out and have everybody say it's trash
oh god and now i'm replying to that and saying hey
the conversation is here hopefully you'll go back no nigga nobody wants to see that i don't want to
put a pod out and everybody say yo fam y'all trash let me put it this way if we put a pod out that we
all felt was good it was good enough to put out on netflix and we start retweeting compliments and
then the whole narrative changes to it was trash and i start
replying and the conversation gets bigger because i'm replying and it's just a bunch of people
talking about it yes in this day and age that is marketing and promotion the more this day hey well
guess what i would call your phone and say nigga stop it oh stop it no i mean what are you doing
right now that's your decision that's your decision on how you want to do marketing i don't
do marketing that way either but i do know the value of negativity
and the value of just getting everyone to talk about it people like to watch car crashes if it's
that fucking bad and everyone's shitting on it let me go see how bad this is and i don't think
kev put this out and said i don't want anyone to see if that's what you're leaning on if it let me
listen i understand your point but if that's what you're leaning on, listen, I understand your point, but if that's what you're leaning on
as the highest grossing comedian in the world,
something's wrong.
And not only that.
That's what I'm saying.
When you give that shit that attention
of responding to people saying it's not good
or it's whack,
people that didn't even see it
will start saying it's trash
just to get a reaction.
Listen, I watch this with a very objective mind.
I'll be honest with y'all.
As someone who has not enjoyed many of Kev's recent stand-ups and docs,
I did like the Netflix doc because it gave us an inside look to some shit.
I like that.
That wasn't supposed to be funny.
When Kev was supposed to be funny, I enjoyed his Laugh At My Pain tour, the highest grossing tour ever, whatever that was.
But I looked it up.
That was 2011.
Yeah, that was quite a while.
It don't feel like that long ago.
But that was 2011.
So what moments this decade, and this is a fair ask, what moments this decade, the same way I i say about musicians like it may not be about a
hit single now it's about a moment what moments has kevin hart given us this decade outside of
that tour like i remember moments from comedians when rory sent me the fucking louis louis ck shit
that's not out that he put on his website he killed that shit oh i'm not supposed to say that
but guess what the nigga was funny. He smoked that.
When Chris Rock did the Open to Oscars,
when nobody wanted to open to Oscars,
and the whole room was silent,
it was a master class,
and that moment stuck out to me. Don't do more like that.
When I went to see,
I'm sorry, more.
When I went to see Dave at Radio City Music Hall
not knowing what to expect
after not having him on the scene
for however many years
master class shit
I'm looking for that
from Kevin I'm looking
for the you know how niggas say
that person makes a great single but the
albums is eh like that's
what I feel like with Kev you can't question
his business acumen you can't question his movies
you can't question anything that he's done
but the funny stuff.
Is he trying to be funny for me?
Last shit he put out, I was like, you know what?
I personally, as a man with kids that's not married or engaged, this stuff is, I hate all this stuff when he does that.
But that's his reality, so I'm not mad at him for doing it.
But then I questioned me.
And I'm like, like well wait a second i love when bill burr talks about marriage and kids
and i love when some of these other comedians talk about their marriage and the kids just because
but the angles that kev takes today are so clean yeah well let me that's all that's all i'm saying
of course because he's a fucking,
about to be a billionaire,
so I'm not derailing this.
But you don't think that that helps to get him
to this place?
Kev has always been a pretty safe
and likable and easy pitch
as far as comedy.
Like, I've been a Kev fan since
before Seriously Funny,
that kind of stuff.
See, I don't respect this if you're a panderer.
So that's, what do you mean? If Kev being since before Seriously Funny that kind of took it to the next level. I don't respect this if you're a panderer. What do you mean?
Kev being the panderer?
I don't know him to be a panderer,
but if he is a panderer,
then I don't care about
what you're saying right now.
I don't think being a safe comedian makes you a panderer.
No, I think pandering makes you a panderer.
And I want to draw that line.
If he's just a safe comedian and that's who he is...
He's not a safe comedian. No, no. Since before he was If he's just a safe comedian and that's who he is. He's been a safe comedian.
No, no.
I'm not saying that.
Since before he was popular,
he was a safe comedian.
There's safe comedians
that are fun.
What's this whole boy,
the white dude
that had the HBO show?
Super corny,
like Christian.
Oh,
jeez,
why am I blanking?
I love him.
We saw him live together.
Yeah, yeah.
Look up crashing.
Why am I blanking?
When we was on tour,
we saw him. He's super square and corny, but it's funny. Is he white? Yeah, he, yeah. Look up crashing. Why am I black? When we was on tour, we saw him.
He's super square and corny, but it's funny.
Is he white?
Yeah, he's white.
I can't believe I'm black.
Very different.
And that's the difference.
Pete Holmes.
Pete Holmes.
I'm sorry, Pete Holmes.
But that's the difference.
White people can talk to white people, can talk to black people.
You can do it.
Black people are judging Kevin Hart away, not because he's not successful or he's not funny to white people.
We understand.
But for us, the jokes are just not for us anymore.
But you know what, though?
Deeper than that, Joe, you got to remember, a lot of comedians in the last few years have publicly come out and said that Kevin Hart is not funny.
So I think a lot of that has him responding to people saying this now is because for a few years, even his peers have been saying he's not funny.
Yeah, I'm 500 million up, man.
I'm white my ass with what y'all talking about.
Nobody's going to argue that.
Hey, Joe, the pot is trashed.
I'm a billionaire.
Yeah, right.
But they're saying,
but it hurts when this is what you love.
I think I take pride in wanting to be a dope,
a pretty good comedian.
But for the last few years,
other comedians have public on
radio shows podcasts have been saying he's not funny yeah so i think a lot of that is just a
build-up to yeah i think people want to be respected by their peers if they care for the
craft that much but quickly to go to your point of bringing up burr chapelle and chris rock
i do you think kev and i think kev has gotten introspective before, but have you ever thought Kev has been that type of comedian ever?
I'm not going to start comparing him to the people when you say masterclasses and do that.
You know what we're talking about.
I don't think Kev has ever been that, so why would I start comparing him now saying, why aren't you doing that?
Let me directly respond to that.
I think Kev is funny, but he's not that type of funny.
Let me reply to that.
That's a different type of funny let me reply to that that's a different type of i feel like the
geniuses will surprise you like when chris rock did that oscar shit i knew he would kind of address
the shit and i knew he would talk to black people but what he did was elevate to a space that we can't get to Dave I know Dave from my experience with Dave
it's kind of similar to Kevin Hart fucking soul playing the movies and blah blah blah blah like I
didn't always know Dave to be the genius comedian what happened was he hit a stride where he elevated and stayed there like the geniuses do.
So, go ahead.
Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr, those type of comedians are geniuses.
Dave Chappelle.
Let me finish.
Let me finish.
They are geniuses with their intellect on observations of the world.
geniuses with their intellect on observations of the world.
Kev is a genius in business and decision-making and branding and comedy,
but not the observation that you are talking about with a Chris Rock mind,
a Dave Chappelle mind, and a Bill Burr mind.
See, I disagree.
They're different type of comedic minds.
Kev has never been that.
He's a genius in his own right, but not that type of genius you're talking about. He was never like a cerebral comic.
He's not that type of comedian.
That's true.
Damn, all of these comedians, or all the ones that I call genius, it's not that they observe the world so great.
It's that they take the real life shit, whether that be their own or the world, and they make it funny.
Right.
That's too black and white for what comedy is.
There's so much of a gray it's the same
with music on comics calling someone a lyrical genius and someone that can make great songs i'm
so glad it's a different type of genius i'm so glad that you brought that up because that's my
exact example it my the comedians and the musician musicians for me the they parallel in this point
they parallel a lot of boys well Well, for me, when the musicians
take real life pain
and
art it. Make something beautiful out of it.
And art it in a way,
I'm going to always respect that
more than the room
full of writers that came up with the hit
record. And if you have the ability
to do both, then
awesome. Then you're Jay-Z. My issue with Kev if you have the ability to do both then awesome then you're jay-z my issue with kev
is you have every resource in the universe that's why i asked when this came out about his about his
team because even if kev is too rich and too disconnected which i don't know that to be the
truth i don't think so i don't know it to be the truth i don can't say that. But if that's the case,
I don't know if his writing team should be out of touch with some of us
that want to hear about us.
Everyday, regular people.
Yeah, that's all like...
But see, to me,
that goes back to my point
of the business genius mind
because that's where Kev's mind is at.
It's with business.
It's with a much higher plateau and a bigger, larger picture than just a standup. People like Chappelle and Rock,
et cetera, their mind I think is always going to be in the root of standup and observing the world.
Chris Rock goes through a divorce. I don't think he looks at it as I'm going through a divorce as
a millionaire. He knows everyone in the world has probably been near a divorce, going through a divorce as a millionaire, he knows everyone in the world
has probably been near a divorce,
been through a divorce, may go through a divorce.
I'm looking at it as a human
because that's how his brain works.
Kev's works as a fucking businessman.
His genius is there.
Chris Rock's genius is within observation
and how it compares to the everyday person.
They're different type of geniuses.
I can't compare the two
because the decision making has been so different. Yeah, man gonna do that because while chris rock would start in everyday
people relatable mode in that divorce conversation he's gonna get to y'all i'm a millionaire and this
bitch is trying to divorce me like he's not but in a funny way that we'll laugh at not that'll be
the punch line that we laugh at not relate relate to. Chris Rodgers has actually done that. But everything covered. Yeah, I'm sure.
But everything covered.
All I'm asking is why Kev can't attempt to cover more.
I'm going to ask you one.
That's my only question.
And my question to that is, when do you think Kev has?
When he got busted cheating.
You think he covered that completely?
I thought that was the funniest that he's been in a little while.
I don't know if he's covered it completely.
Was that Laugh At My Pain?
I think it was well after.
It was the one with the big stadium shit.
I forgot what that was called.
Listen, I've heard him address the cheating stuff.
No, no, no.
I think, no, Kev has gotten introspective.
I'm not trying to say that Kev's not been introspective.
And I loved it.
But just not in the way that Rock and Chappelle have their entire careers.
That's just who they are as people.
Fam, if Dave Chappelle got caught cheating on his wife in a hotel room
and was getting bribed by his best friend, yeah, real-life turmoil.
We understand that.
Well, I understand how that affected Kev.
I get that.
But the bit that comes from that.
I mean, he did that with the azalea thing on the um
the george yes come on one second but it was hilarious cns my thing i don't know that'd be
a good comparison though all he did was just say that right all right well how about how about this
enough of this talking in circles if i'm a comedian and I put something out, a body of work, another nigga shouldn't
be able to put out a 20 minute
YouTube body of work
and now we not talk about my shit no more.
That shouldn't happen.
Well, like I said, people made it cool.
People started making it cool to not like
Kevin Hart. I think that's what the bigger thing is.
I think this conversation is only happening because
we like Kevin Hart.
But for a few years, like I said, some of his peers, they've gone publicly and said-
Yeah, but them niggas are haters.
He's not funny.
Well, you can call them that, but they just figure he's not a funny guy.
But that comes with being as big a star as Kev is.
You're going to get people that feel like, yo, how is he selling out football stadiums?
He's not that funny.
How is he doing this?
He's not that funny.
How does he have 300 million?
He's not that funny. Well, you can be popular and that funny How does he have 300 million He's not that funny
You can be popular
And not funny
Yeah you can
Exactly
I don't know why people ask that
But my thing is
As a comedian
You have to be able to
Just laugh at all that shit
Like you can't
Take that shit
Too serious
And start
Having serious conversations
And it's like
Yo people don't think you funny
So what
Like
But we've seen this
With comedians This shit was called Laugh at my pain right It was a beautiful title Right Yeah that was one of his shows conversations and it's like yo people don't think you funny so what like man we've seen this with
this shit was called laugh at my pain right it was a beautiful title right yeah that was one of
the shows i think but again i think someone that has a different type of comedic brain i'm not
saying which comedic brain is better or worse that's your opinion i think if you give that
title richard pryor said to fucking make your pain funny it's not our opinion it's the nigga
that raised no no i'm saying who i think would have a more deep dive observation at the title Laugh At My
Pain, a Chappelle or a Kevin Hart is all I'm saying.
They're different type of comedic brains.
Whichever one you like is your business.
But we saw the same shit with Dane Cook.
He blew up and every comedian said, he's not funny.
He doesn't say anything real on stage. We nothing about him it's all surface shit it's not black people don't know
that dane cook well he he sold out madison square garden so i mean no tell us what i'm saying i don't
know i'm comparing yeah i'm literally telling you exactly what happened dane cook blew up because he
was a silly guy he was a funny guy. He was easily palatable to the rest
of the country. And he became the biggest comedian in the world. And then every comedian said,
hey, none of this is funny. He's not really saying anything. There's no real observations.
He's just a silly guy and he's funny. And Dane got all the hate in the world. They tried to tear
Dane down with every last thing. you have to compare funny man Kevin Hart
not businessman not movie star funny man Kevin Hart to the other people who are funny men
how does that look not good for Kevin you and that's all I'm saying you shouldn't compare them
yeah no I'm gonna compare them but that's my point at some point it has to be about
legacy and not business and check different types of legacies even when he joined got in the fucking
clubhouse wrong like all right netflix then made this nigga get in here and reply to some of this
shit i don't feel like you're not you're not on the app and just happen to be replying to some
shit somebody said hey it might be a good idea for you to get in there and reply to some shit
well he has i went right to kevin hart's page i think i don't i don't know so i'm not gonna spread
misinformation but i went to his page when he was in the room it said 3 000 followers i was like oh
shit kevin hart must have just signed up today i scrolled down he signed up in may and anytime i
see that i'm like oh okay got it early, early investor, and you just here to use this shit to meet your quota of whatever your contract says you have to use this shit.
Like, it's not genuine to me.
Got it.
Now, I could be off.
Yeah, that's not fair to put on somebody.
That's not fair.
It's not fair to put on somebody.
That could have been very genuine to him.
It's not fair.
You're right, Rory.
But when I've seen you respond to criticism on every possible outlet that you can.
And since this stand up has come out, I'm not looking at the clubhouse move in isolation.
I'm looking at it as, oh, this is another outlet for you to do what you've been doing.
And Kevin Hart is too great to do that, even if this was a dud.
And I'm not saying it was a dud, but if it was a dud, I'm either coming out to say, yo, fam, it was a dud. I fucked up. We'll'm either coming out to say yo fam was a dud i
fucked up we'll get we'll get back at him or i'm never addressing any of this that's me or
be the artisan that you are and make a whole bit about it in your next in your next effort yeah
yeah that's simple agree there it's true it's true shout out to kevin hartman friend of the
show we fuck with him even though that
might not sound like we did
but we do
yeah of course
definitely do
and that
that clubhouse room
was just
hilarious as is
what was so funny
about that clubhouse thing
was that
no one was trying
to be funny
chatty house
I mean yeah
we said it a lot
I think Kev
was trying to be funny
no
they were all
having a dead serious
conversation
and didn't realize that we were all laughing at them.
Every last one that was on that stage,
we were laughing at y'all.
Y'all sounded insane.
The listeners don't have clues.
I got a bunch of texts like,
yo, this room is disgusting.
Yo, this room is a mess.
I'm loving it.
I'm not leaving.
Oh, no.
I was glued.
But you didn't have 5,000 people in there.
So clearly it's a conversation that, yeah.
Shout out to Kev, man.
Shout out to the Plastic Cup boys.
Shout out to them.
Call Spank.
Shout out to anybody who's close to a billion.
For real.
I just have a thing with sensitive anything.
Sensitive comedians, sensitive rappers, sensitive girls.
I personally, that's a Joe issue.
I have a problem with sensitive anything.
You can't expect artists not to be sensitive.
Yeah, Joe, but you went through that as an artist.
Tell me when.
As a rapper.
You responded to a lot of shit you shouldn't have responded to.
And that's my thing, Mo.
How that's received should be different.
Because since the year 2000,
I have always ingratiated myself with the people.
When there was nothing to talk about,
Joe was there talking.
When Joe was getting killed,
Joe was there talking.
When Joe was on a high,
Joe was there talking.
It looks different when you're not there at all.
Kev don't just pop in a room
and just kick it with the people.
Kev ain't just hopping on Twitter
to just kick it with the people. Kev ain't just hopping on Twitter To just kick it with the people
That's true
It's only when there's these releases
And some criticism
That he pops in
So the niggas like me
It looks a way
But if he was just there
Kicking it
Yeah it doesn't look a way
I don't think this is a big deal
I get what you're saying
Today
But because he jumped in
And he's doing that
It's like oh yeah
He's
He's feeling the fire
He's affected by this
He's feeling the fire
Some hot water
It's affecting him a little bit.
And I don't know that to be true.
But that's how it seems.
To talk to your fans about criticism.
I just don't think.
Then these niggas should do it.
Which is tough to ask someone about their art to not be defensive about it.
But when you walk in on the defense, yeah, maybe you should have just sat this one out.
And let me just say.
If you want to have a real conversation with your fans? I love that. I hate that Clubhouse,
that chatty house, rather,
is becoming like
artist rollout-y.
Oh, you mean like
every other platform?
It's going to get more.
It's what the labels do
when they find out
something is hot.
Like, I remember
a point in history
where the labels were saying,
ah, got to start
the Reddit ask it.
Start a Reddit ask it. And this is ask it. Start a Reddit ask it.
And this is beating me down with a Reddit ask it.
I've never been on Reddit.
Shout out to my Reddit crew.
Hey, I love Reddit now too.
That's a great site.
But when the industry found out that, oh, wait, you could talk there and it might result to sales somehow, they milked it out.
They ruined it like they do everything else.
So I just see Clubhouse.
A few weeks ago when I seen certain niggas pop up,
they was like, fam, you don't talk to niggas.
You're not a talker.
I've been here for 20 years.
I've never seen you talk.
When I seen some of these niggas pop up with their publicists,
I'm like, eh, this is not the place for a publicist.
This is a place for us to get you.
But that's your sensitivity, Joe.
I think it's my understanding.
As someone that's been kind of ahead of the curve, I think, on a lot of digital trends and been there first and was really talking with fans before it was trendy to really talk with your fans.
And you're on every single one of these apps early.
I think when you see other artists, celebrities,
whatever it is, get on there too, you feel a way.
I know you won't admit that, but I've seen it sometimes.
I can just see you feel like, all right,
now y'all on this shit too.
After y'all killed me for being on this shit,
now what y'all roll out?
Rory, you're right.
One of my talents, in my opinion,
is being able to spot authenticity.
So I point it out when I see that,
Hey,
there might be some other variables here.
That's making said person do this,
not to knock it,
but like in the Will Smith case,
I get angry.
Well,
we know that Kevin Hart don't affect my buck.
Cause he's too big.
Fresh Prince thing.
No,
not watching a fucking first.
I did not.
I loved it. I'm not watching that. I'm not watching coming fucking Fresh Prince I did not it was dope I loved it
I'm not watching that
I'm not watching
Coming to America Part 2
sorry Amazon
I love y'all
but no I'm not watching that
I'm gonna watch it
I'll probably watch it
but who asked for that
I don't think we asked for that
20 years ago
that's the only problem
with Coming to America
we wanted to know
if they really got married
man go create something
go create a new storyline
or a new plot
scream man
can you get this girl off of here go create a new storyline or a new plot. Screen man, can you get this girl off of here?
Go create a new storyline or a new plot or a new something.
Go put your creative juices together and do it.
Stop just giving me shit from the 90s or regurgitating shit.
But whatever.
Shout out to Kevin Hart.
Shout out to his whole team.
Shout out to everybody who watched that special.
And thank you for a really entertaining day on the chatty house.
I crashed it.
And to close that conversation, I do think that, yes, authentic rollouts are great.
But I can never be mad at superstars getting on whatever is popular to help promote their shit.
I just I can't be mad at this point in my life.
I can't.
I get it.
Like, all right, you're trying to promote something.
This is where the people are.
Go do it.
I don't think it'll be as effective because it's not genuine.
But, yeah, I don't sit there and be like, how could they go on where the people are to promote something. This is where the people are. Go do it. I don't think it'll be as effective because it's not genuine.
But yeah, I don't sit there and be like, how could they go on where the people are to promote something?
But I do. That doesn't bother me.
But I do.
I don't think it'll be effective when it's not genuine, but I see why they do it.
Of course.
All right.
And I'm going to point out the difference from when you're trying to draw and when you are the drawer.
Sure.
You can't say that about a superstar.
Yes, I can.
They're a draw.
There's not a draw on that app. But then you see when Kev gets on there, 3,000 people get on. say that about a superstar. Yes, I can. They're a draw. There's not a draw on that app.
But then you see when Kev gets on there,
No, no, I'm not talking about the app.
3,000 people get on.
Kev is a draw.
We know that.
No question.
But there's a difference in moving like a draw.
Like when he did that whole run apologizing about the Oscars.
I didn't like that.
Of course you didn't.
Know why?
Because you would have loved to see him move like the draw that he is.
You would have loved to see him put his dick on the table and say fam i apologize for these
comments ages ago and if y'all still feel like this then suck my fucking dick i'm doing what
i'm doing i don't need y'all for a bag i would have loved that experience yeah but he did 90
more he did 90 more so i mean if your history is not pandering but explaining, it's just not for me.
That part.
That part.
That part.
We all know and understand that Kev is protecting certain relationships.
We know that.
Because he's got a million of them.
He's got a million of them.
And that's what I think the problem is,
where people feel like you're only saying this because of this,
or you're only doing this because of this,
or you won't say this because of this.
As a comedian, comedian listen as a man
you gotta know when let me not say that because that might be a bad example but as a as a comedian
you just as a bad bitch part in the word bitch you better know when the other bad bitch is on
her way to the party or what she doing when she get there let me say that she's gonna snap i feel
like it's kev's job and i'm leaving this after this, to know that Dave Chappelle is active now.
If I'm a comedian, you rappers better know that Drake is active.
He's not home rehabbing.
He's home recording in his beautiful, luxurious studio.
So you either got to acquiesce to that or acknowledge it and move the fuck out the way you
better put something out that at least is on par with the greatest or way to the greatest moves
that's what joe thinks dave is active newly active writing every day in cleveland he's married so he
ain't got no bitches he's just out there writing shit down if If I'm a comedian, I'm writing for that.
I'm telling my team, I'm writing for that.
If another pod pop up tomorrow that I feel like it's dropping, like, oh, should they kill it?
I'm coming in and telling y'all, yeah.
Hey, let's do this now.
Or let's wait till they move.
Let's not drop on Thursdays.
Let's not drop on a Friday.
You know what's even more dangerous about Dave right now?
Not only is he saying how active he's going to be, he's inviting every comedian to Ohio to live on his fucking property.
And do mushrooms.
You do realize when the big artists start bringing in all the producers,
all the artists, just to be around creativity,
how much better they get at their craft.
Kev, do drugs.
Listen, enough of this just tiptoeing around what the real issue is.
You and this sober comedy shit got to go.
Dave is in Ohio with comedians on mushrooms.
And he's talking to rappers.
He talked to most deaf in them.
Fam, listen, this is what's happening.
Man, where my phone?
That's hilarious.
You want to try that again?
Nigga, as bad enough I got to worry about Drake doing music,
now I got to worry about Drake doing music on mushrooms?
Come on, man.
Come on, you're losing.
You never had to worry about Drake doing music.
That was going to be what it was going to be.
That wasn't any of your concern.
Your needle wasn't going to shift If Aubrey was around or not
Maybe you would have lost some bitches
That would have been about it
Yeah the needle was right
Where it was going to be
Don't worry about it
Oh man
You guys
You guys boy
It's just funny
That all these years now
You really think about it
And you know
As kids
Mario Brothers
Were just teaching us
To do shrooms
That's all
True
Yeah
You get bigger
When you take the shrooms You know what I mean Like just take the shrooms man Yeah That's us to do shrooms. That's all. True. Yeah. You get bigger when you take
the shrooms.
You know what I mean?
Like, just take the shrooms, man.
Yeah.
That's all.
I love shrooms.
I used to get scared.
I used to get scared
at the dungeon theme music.
Do-do-do-do-do-do.
Do-do-do-do-do-do.
Look what Joe's doing.
Don't ever talk to me
about fibers that scared you.
I was a child. So? I wasn't a tough child, about fiber if that scared you. I was a child.
So?
I wasn't a tough child, Rory.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, I wasn't a tough child.
What did I get tough?
Damn, never.
It's okay, man.
Being tough looks annoying and painful.
I was real happy that year came where it was cool to admit that you weren't tough.
I might have even started that.
I'm taking credit.
The snake on the eyeball after the Ray Kwan incident.
I was like, oh, man.
I felt like Joe did his tough thing afterwards and got on the camera and said, let's fight.
That was stupid.
We've all done stupid things.
Anytime you get on a camera and invite someone to fight, you're stupid.
It's hilarious.
It's the dumbest thing in the world.
What an idiot.
Listen, man.
You got to look back at your past.
Hey, fam, we got to delete some of these videos from YouTube.
Nah.
I mean, no.
Nostalgia purposes.
I'm going to actually go back and watch them tonight.
Yeah.
And call the video Square Dance.
You titled it.
You titled the fight.
Joe was the first nigga to IG Live.
Joe was the first nigga to want to fight one of these niggas.
I don't know about that, but yeah, he was the first one.
Oh, man.
All right.
What's going on?
What's going on?
What's going on?
Young Thug admits he's never paid attention to Andre 3000.
Yeah, right.
Did he say that? Because in reading this, down slow down slow down young thug appeared on ti's podcast as expeditiously and naturally they got into their atlanta bag
and i was shocked i was shocked to hear all what thug had to say about 3K and we have it here
Rory
hit it
I can't rap you
203,000 songs
stop that
I ain't never
I don't even feel right letting this play
if that's true
that's an indictment on Young Thug
he said he can't rap
two of his songs?
Do y'all believe that to be true,
that Young Thug can't rap two Andre 3000 songs?
You don't know Sorry Miss Jackson?
I just saw someone post a picture of him on a red carpet with a
I want to be like Andre Badu on the back of it.
You don't know the words to me and your daughter.
Got something going on. Who don't know the words to me and your daughter got something going on.
Who don't know that verse? To all the hip hop
purists, don't be mad at me. You say it's puppy
love. Don't be mad at me.
Who don't know that verse? You know, a casual
fan is sick. They might drop
the beat out when that comes on in a club.
Back to this DNA influence thing, I've always
thought Thug was a three stack
type rapper. Y'all thought Thug was a three stack type rapper.
Young Thug gonna shoot you.
No, like his style and flow, I think, comes a lot from 3000.
Yeah, this was shocking to hear this, to hear him say he doesn't know.
And the amount of times 3000, 3000 only speaks four times a decade.
And I feel like three out of four times is him saying, hey, the only artist I'm listening to and like is Young Thug.
Yeah, but that don't mean
nothing. The public adoration
means nothing if when I actually meet
you, it's not present.
Let's listen to this in its
entirety to some degree. Hit it, Rory.
23,000 songs.
I ain't never paid attention to them.
Never in my life. You crazy.
You missing out.
Right.
You missing out.
Y'all need to work together.
That's what you,
hey look.
That'd be crazy.
We most definitely,
yo motherfucking next move.
Just like you went and worked with Elton John,
nigga.
But Elton John,
was like,
more like,
Elton John,
the difference from Elton John and Andre,
is,
Elton John, the difference from Elvin John and Andre is Elvin John, like simplified.
Elvin John, Elvin John like to kiss ass.
Andre like to act it.
Elvin John like, hey, I love you.
I remember your first song.
I remember Gucci's first song.
We just grew up getting out.
Like he's just more of like a fan type of nigga to the point
where it's like
I'm like
nigga let's
but that's
kind of my point
I feel like
by that definition
of what he's saying
I'm not saying
Andre Thou's
kiss ass
because I'm not
going to say
another man did that
but Three Stacks
has been praising
Young Thug
since he came out
and only Young Thug
I have not heard
3000 say a word
about another artist
but Young Thug
for the last decade
he likes Young Thug for the last decade.
He likes Young Thug.
And I can understand why he would.
And I feel to the point that I feel like at Fife's memorial at the Apollo, he was talking about Young Thug there on stage.
Like that's how much know any Andre 3000 records.
Well, that's because we from New York.
Yeah, which even more.
If I'm from, that's like me being from New York and not knowing a Jay-Z record.
Yeah.
How do you not know a Jay-Z record?
Like, how do you not know a Biggie record and you're from New York?
How old is i'm from new york and if there were a time where i felt like jay-z was going out of his way to not embrace me it might skew how i think of him as an artist i don't care how you think this is i don't i don't
care how you think of him in the artist you can't you won't you won't be able to sit somewhere and
say you don't know his music because i'm not from atlanta and i don't know enough about atlanta business this to a new york nigga sounds like there's some atlanta shit going
on where thug didn't feel like he was respected uh appropriately by three three thousand how we
just sat here and said three thousand does nothing but praise young thug and that's awesome but thug
later went on to say elton john
like i like to just play elton john kiss his ass listen as an artist and i want you to get just
get into that mode as an artist when you respect somebody and look up to somebody and adore
somebody and you meet them and the energy is different it can't that's not what he said
listen listen listen that's true what you're. He probably would. Listen, listen, listen.
That's true what you're saying.
That will still not equate to me saying I don't know this man's records.
I still would not be able to say that.
I don't care if I'm- If I'm sensitive, I would say that.
No, but that's crazy.
I'm not going to say I don't know your records because I met you when I became an artist
and I found out you were an asshole.
I still grew up on your shit.
Right.
I still think you're an amazing rapper.
When O said I'm about a dollar, what the fuck is 50 Cent?
I didn't think he didn't hear
a 50 Cent record.
That's different.
No, but that's different, Joe.
Come on, man.
Because Hov was already established.
50 was, you know.
He's saying like,
well, don't compare him to me.
That's all he was saying.
He was like,
yo, you trying to throw shots at me?
Like, who are you?
That's all.
Like, this is totally different.
3,000, I mean,
Young Thug is saying
he doesn't know
two Andre 3000 records.
He can't sing them. That's crazy to me. That's insane to me. Young Thug is saying he doesn't know two Andre 3000 records he can't sing them
that's crazy to me
that's insane to me
Young Thug is an amazing artist
how can you be from Atlanta
with an amazing artist
like Andre 3000
and not know two of his records
and kind of sound like him
in certain places
well what Thug said
what Thug said to T.I. was
T.I. said that 3K is Atlanta
and a staple here
and a pioneer here
and Thug said then why you don't rap like him?
What?
What does that mean?
That don't mean you got to rap like him, but you know his music.
You know his work.
Because it's hard to rap like him.
Yeah, and nobody can rap like him.
Nobody can rap.
If we be going all the way real, nobody ain't going to be able to rap like him.
But to say that we don't know
his music
I could sit and try
I could have his album
on and try to do it
but to say you don't
know two of his records
that's a little insane
and up until this
I thought
Andre 3000
was Young Thug's
biggest
musical inspiration
you would think
I thought they were
supporting each other
and I swore
they worked together
I don't know why
I thought in my head
that there was
a Young Thug album
where there was
a Three Stacks verse
I could see Three Stacks
maybe reaching out
to Young Thug after this
no way
Young Thug Thug
he just said
he was randomly spotted
playing his flute again
he don't even know
what's going on
he's working on his
clarinet tones
yeah man
you know
this doesn't
affect his life
at all
but I understand what Thug is saying he feels like I'm going to stay out of Atlanta business Yeah, man. This doesn't affect his life at all.
But I understand what Thug is saying.
I'm going to stay out of Atlanta business.
No, it's not no business. He just said he doesn't know 200,000, 3,000 songs.
But you had a bigger point to make, I think,
about younger artists meeting older artists
and what's the protocol of conversation.
Yeah, the protocol of it.
And like, what's the protocol of the protocol of it? Like, you know, sometimes sometimes you'll deal with an artist directly, like artist to artist.
Sometimes your manager will say, hey, maybe you should try to do artist to artist.
So to go a little different, like.
different like it seems like young thug has a problem with three three stacks protocol or his infrastructure that he has in place where it's like all right if you want to feature for me or
if you want to speak to me then talk to my secretary it's like if i want to talk to leo
like i'll speak to his secretary first if i want to speak to kev or one of these just exact niggas
that i don't normally speak to, like it's normal for you
to... Yeah, but Joe, everybody
that knows Andre 3000...
It's a scheduling thing, like let me
get a block.
Well, not really, because if I
feel like Lior is
my man man, then nigga, you can get
on the phone and we can talk about your schedule.
Why am I speaking to your secretary
which is what Doug said in that interview.
I'm Doug, but Joe, all of that is fine that still would not allow me to say
i don't know two of his records well you you're more mature no i'm just saying that's just it's
insane as an artist of young thug's talent to and you're from the same city to not know andre
3000's music check this out before you retire we do want to hear you and this man together.
Hell yeah.
One million percent.
So let's get that back on that track.
That would be extremely high on my list,
period, for collabs I'd like to see.
Yeah.
I agree.
Y'all two are two dope artists
that are very similar in their styles,
but different.
All right, now you dick riding now.
No, come on. You know Young Thug in three styles, but different. All right, now you dig right in there. No, come on.
You know Young Thug.
I'm joking.
Three stacks.
How both their voices sound,
how crazy that record is.
You're making sense.
You're making sense.
Hey.
What that emoji mean, boy?
Hey.
That means you.
What does it mean?
What does it mean, Rourke?
Oh, nah.
When you get that one.
Ooh.
Ooh.
When she cover her eyes.
She don't want to see. She don't want to see.
She don't want to see.
Bro, listen.
The shit that men get excited about is fucking crazy.
Come on.
Don't act like that.
You better get the fuck out of here, bro.
I'm too cool for this.
No, I'm just saying.
You know you get excited when she send this one.
No, I'm laughing with y'all.
I'm not like.
She don't see me.
She don't even want to see it.
The shit that we get excited about is so stupid, man. Like, I'm laughing with y'all. I'm not like, you don't see me. You don't want to see it. The shit that we get excited about
is so stupid, man.
Like, look what we get.
Look.
You happy you got that emotion?
This is the one I'm getting off recently.

Did I just say that?
Have some self-respect.

I'd never say this.
I don't know what's gotten into me.
But what are you doing?
I don't know what's come over me.
I'm so flustered.
Joby fanning himself after the text.
Like, whoo.
Let me see your recent emojis. We do this whoo. Let me see your recent emojis.
We do this a lot.
Let me see your recent emojis.
At least once a month we do this.
I don't give a fuck.
Let me see it.
I'm telling y'all what my.
That's funny.
Do you want to go on vacation next month?
Did I just go there with you?
We're platonic.
We're platonic.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm serious.
Come on, come on, come on.
Let me see.
No erasers.
It's just not,
I don't even know how to do that.
Look at the eyes, right?
Look at the tongue out.
Not the tongue emoji.
All right, never mind.
Let's not play with Rory.
Let's not play with Rory.
Tongue emoji's in my tongue.
Wait, hold on.
You gotta get the tongue emoji off?
Yeah, fam.
While I'm engaged? I never did the tongue. Wait, hold on. I don't get the tongue emoji off? Yeah. Fam. While I'm engaged?
I never did the tongue one.
What tongue time?
Yeah.
You see where the money bag is at, though.
Number one, we know that.
When do I get to send the tongue one?
After she does this.
When you're horny.
Well, what does that one tell them?
That I want to eat it?
That you're horny.
That I want to lick it down?
Depends on the situation.
But no.
I never did that eggplant shit when it was hot.
I never thought that was cool.
I never did that one.
Is the tongue cooler than that?
Yeah, the tongue is cooler.
I don't know what the tongue is at.
I never did the eggplant.
Oh, is the tongue an appropriate response to this?
Yeah.
Like, would she do this?
Absolutely. Can I put the tongue? Yeah. Like, when she do this? Absolutely.
Can I put the tongue?
Yeah, absolutely.
You can do a tongue, man.
Don't do it like that, though.
Don't do that.
Edit that out, nigga.
Don't play with me.
Make that the cover.
Don't play.
Don't put my tongue out.
Make that the cover, if you don't mind.
Oh, man.
Listen, man.
What about the little smirk one?
That was always high in my repertoire.
It's lost its touch.
It's not working out there anymore?
I wouldn't know. I was never it's lost its touch. It's not working out there anymore. I wouldn't know.

The next best thing.
Yo, look at this.
Oh my God.
So Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr.
are fighting tonight.
There's a no knockout rule. I don't think that Mike will oblige. How do. So Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. are fighting tonight. There's a no knockout rule.
I don't think that Mike will oblige.
How do you even?
I think Roy Jones Jr. will be laying flat on his back.
I don't think Mike cares about that contract at all.
Yeah, because you can get knocked out by accident.
Yeah.
Tell me about the time you tripped in a fight.
I've definitely tripped in a fight.
Like over your own foot, though?
Like what'd you trip over
Like the street
Yeah I don't know
My foot was
Something stupid right
Nothing was there
Over the fist
The fist to my chin
Hope I tripped
You tripped over his fist Rory
Yeah
Sometimes that happens
He tripped over his fist
Oh Rors
That was an uppercut
That's what Rory Jones
Is going to
That's what he's going to
Experience tomorrow This is going to be's what he's going To experience tomorrow
This is going to be
The better fight
Who the fuck are these two niggas
This is hilarious
Nate Robinson
Versus
Jake Paul
Excuse me
Yeah
Nate boxing on the undercard
What
What time does this start
I might have a kickback
For this
And Nate can box
He's been boxing for years
Oh yeah
Yeah he's been
He's been taking boxing lessons
For like 15 years
Nah Nate is an athlete
So I wouldn't And he called the dude The lessons for like 15 years. Nah, Nate is an athlete, so I wouldn't underestimate him.
The dude is like a YouTuber, boxer, something like that.
And he just started out calling each other out, and Nate was like, well, let's do it.
Yeah, I'm watching that one.
Who do you have winning that?
I mean, Jake Paul has ring experience.
Really?
I think that'll be the difference, yeah.
I think that's the difference.
Nate is just a super athlete, though. reach is much different too yeah not Jake Paul having real ring
experience well well then go fight Gervonta then nigga no no no not like that what is you fighting
him for I'm saying in regards to versus Nate Robinson Nate has never fought somebody in the
ring I don't think well I'm sure I'm this is not their real heights sparred and done oh Jake Logan
Jake Paul is not so much taller than Nate Robinson.
He has a bigger reach, I think, when I saw when they were trying to put the stats up.
Well, I would assume that.
His arms look a little longer.
And that'd be the factor a lot of times.
True story.
That reach.
I got Nate winning this.
Nate is a freak athlete, man.
Wouldn't shock me.
You got Nate winning this?
Yeah, I got Nate winning this.
He's a freak athlete, man. Nate is definitely a freak athlete.'t shock me. You got Nate winning this? Yeah, I got Nate winning this. He's a freak athlete, man.
Nate is definitely a freak athlete.
Look at this guy.
Nate looks great.
See, look at him.
See?
Exactly.
You don't feel that stance?
No, he's going to get knocked out.
He's going to get knocked out.
Jake Paul beat up somebody before when he did this, but I just don't see it right now.
We said the same thing when Sticky Fingers was fighting that dude.
Yeah, yeah.
Man.
Wait, did we ever uncover if that was real or fake?
When was that fake?
No, that was real.
I thought that was real the whole time.
I thought so, too, but then a rumor went out that said all of that was staged.
I never heard that.
Whose people put that out?
All the time.
Whose people pushed that story?
Important question.
Very important question.
Queens.
Yeah, whose people pushed that story?
It looked real to me.
I'm watching this fight tomorrow, Mom.
You gotta watch this fight.
And I have Mike winning.
Yeah, I think the whole world is Mike winning.
What, tonight, I mean.
Yeah.
Tonight, I have Mike winning.
Somebody check the line in Vegas.
There's no betting.

We can use the eye test
Remember when all the sports
I used the eye test
Nigga
Now you got eyes Whoever's eyes closed the most At the I used the eye nigga now you got eyes
whoever's eyes
closed the most
at the end of the fight
that's who lost
like Fresher
alright man
listen to Rem
aww
Rem said
oh lord
we shouldn't laugh at that
we're not laughing at that
Fresher's my man
but last week
actually exactly a week ago today
while we were recording we got some horrible news behind the scenes so horrible that we couldn't
report on it and it was about fresh and something that he experienced in newark and yesterday he
put something out um that says and i'll read it beyond grateful beyond thankful words can't
describe how grateful i am today for my family and friends last Friday I put my family friends and team through a real scare I
was robbed at gunpoint gun butted and almost kidnapped they took my car money jewelry but
they couldn't take my spirit I'm still here and for that I am grateful to be able to tell you
this because things could have been very different 2020 has been uh has been a difficult year but we
got uh got to keep pushing.
Every day you wake up is a gift.
Just open it.
Remember this,
what don't kill you will only make you stronger.
Well, I'm glad Fresher's okay.
Really happy that Fresher is all right.
Really happy that he was able to escape
being held captive.
Really happy that he was able to experience the holiday with his family
there was a million different ways that this story could have turned out last week we were
freestyling all of them and i'm just happy that he's good it's a real good brother somebody i've
worked with uh met invited to my house i'm just happy that he is cool and okay i will also use
this opportunity to continue to stress to y'all
that the streets are probably hungrier
than they've ever been.
Yeah.
That's a fact.
That's what I got.
That's what I got for you.
Yes.
Careful of the blocks you venture to.
What else do we have?
What else do we have?
Maul, you want to sing
Benny Happy Birthday on there?
Let's call Benny.
What'd y'all think about that?
Yeah, actually, let's see how Benny's doing.
What'd y'all think about that
Benny and Ross picture?
I liked it a lot.
I loved it too.
I loved it.
Yeah, they got some music coming, I think.
Let me see what Benny up to man
I wouldn't even mind
A little four pack EP
Oh I thought it was cool
Jay is the most nominated
Artist of all time now
Oh yeah
Jay is what
He's the most nominated
Grammy artist of all time
That's actually kind of nuts
Now that I think about it
Yeah that's crazy
I think it was
That's really nuts
He just beat Quincy Jones
It was 81 nominated
Wow
That's cause I started
Thinking like producers
And writing
I was like
That's kind of crazy Yeah Wow That's best to hope Beating Quincy Jones It was 81 nominations Wow Because I started thinking Like producers and writers I was like That's kind of crazy
Yeah
Wow
That's the whole
Beating Quincy Jones
Wow
Yeah
It's probably because
Of the whole Avengers
Probably this podcast
Yeah
I mean I would like
To take the credit for it
No you should take the credit
I think it's mostly
Because of you
I mean I was trying
To be humble
Jay that's not me
That's Rory and Mal
And I'm playing around.
Call Jay.
No.
I wouldn't either.
You got to be real careful what you use certain niggas' numbers on.
I don't call over because I have nothing to call over about.
I'm not important.
Not doing it.
Nothing I have to say.
Got to use that one call of favor very very strategically
yeah
yeah it's true
oh shit
Jay-Z now ties
Quincy Jones
as the artist
with the most nominations
in Grammy history
he don't care
see and that's my point
well he doesn't care
yeah he's not gonna go
pandering to the Grammys
when he's not nominated
yo some of this Grammy backlash
like it's a lot worse
than I thought
it's a lot worse
than we even
we even reported on even though we know it's bad every year.
Well, some shit developed after we went off the air last week.
Disgusting.
Specifically with the weekend where, I don't know if it was him directly suggesting this or his team.
I don't want to say who it came from.
It's a fact, wherever it came from.
It was a fact.
Grammy said, hey, us or the Super Bowl.
Take your pick. If you go of the Super Bowl take your pick if
you take if you go to Super Bowl no nominations fuck you and that's just
uncovering some of the shit that's going on with the Grammys for years and years
but like why would you not want the weekend to do both yeah I didn't
understand that a lot especially if the Super Bowl is in February right and for
the people that were just watching the Super Bowl for the weekend,
they would just watch the Grammys for the weekend, too.
I don't get that thinking at all.
And you're the Grammys.
You're not in competition with the Super Bowl.
It's not like he's going to do the Soul Train Awards or some shit.
Right.
Yeah.
Grammys need to make that make sense.
Scared the shit out of me.
He thought you was calling hoes.
Yo, yo.
Yo, the weekend.
The weekend.

How did you feel when Young Thug said he doesn't know two Andre 3000 verses?
I was thinking like, damn.
You know what I'm saying?
I was like, damn, he don't.
But I learned something that day that everybody who we think...
Our heroes are not everybody else's heroes.
You feel what I'm saying?
That's true.
And, I mean, obviously, he was inspired by other dudes,
and it went well.
And it went well for him.

Yeah, it's a great photo.
No, but Ross told you once he got them teeth done,
he was like, you know, I'm smiling all day.
I'm not mad at him at all.
Yeah, he wasn't playing.
I'm smiling all day i'm not mad at him at all yeah he wasn't playing all the time now before before we go any further with the sleepers
with the final episode of the undoing happening sunday night tomorrow night at 9 p.m on hbo max
i know last podcast i asked y'all for your final predictions but i was speaking to a young man uh on twitter
and he enlightened me to the name the person that i forgot about
last pod when i was saying i'm forgetting a suspect
the headmaster oh the school yes yeah i didn't even think about that. That's a pretty good idea. The headmaster would have known that Hugh Grant stopped paying for the school
because he lost his job.
The headmaster had access to that little saxophone,
whatever that is that the weapon was in that was in Oldboy's.
Violin.
Yeah.
Shorty said she was seeing a therapist before she died
or somebody on the stand somebody took the stand and said she was seeing a therapist before she
died i just think the headmaster you're leaving out the most important part of that point which
is why i think it's such a good one and it went past us because it would be something a principal
would ask anyways.
He was very adamant about the conversation
between the two kids
and what was said.
True.
Yeah.
He was,
I mean, of course,
that got past us
because it's a principal.
He would be asking that question,
but he was really adamant
about their discussion.
Like, what did y'all talk about?
And Shorty's son
has been dead quiet.
I don't think he's had a line in the show yet.
Thanks.
Yeah, I found this guy's page.
The headmaster knew that Hugh was lying about the Cincinnati trip
because Hugh wasn't paying for the school tuition anymore.
Fired for three months.
Papa Doc gave him 500K,
and Grace told her father that Hugh had drained their bank accounts.
I just think the headmaster's a suspect.
I agree with this guy.
That's a really good theory.
I agree with this guy.
That's a really, really good theory.
That's not a stretch.
I like that.
Yeah, I like it.
I can't wait to see.
I think I'm going to have a kickback for it.
And don't do that, Maul, because you know.
Yeah, Maul knows because the writer of the show
hit him and was like, yo, this is what happened.
He worked on the show somehow. The real killer hit Maul. Tell us. Tell us. He was like, yo, this is what happened. He worked on the show somehow.
The real killer hit Maul.
Tell us.
Tell us.
He's like, yo, it's me.
I listen to the pod.
I just had to let you know.
So right this second,
before this episode drops,
you do know the real killer.
Yes.
Is it good?
Yes.
Or are we going to be mad?
No, it's not.
It's going to be good.
Someone we've guessed.
Maul also knows the killer. He doesn't know how they're going to do it. be good Someone we've guessed Well Maul also knows
Someone we've guessed
Killer he doesn't know
How they're gonna do it
Yeah someone we've guessed
This is gonna be a great episode
On Sunday
Yeah
I hope
Is it
Did he tell you
If this was an hour episode
Or was it more
That I didn't
Come on Maul
Text him back
That shit better be two hours
