Starting point is 00:03:08 lied, said she was a virgin, then got pregnant, and her husband was not the father. So you can imagine it was a little awkward. So she invited her mans and them, the shepherds, to make sure Joseph didn't fucking hit her upside the fucking head.
Starting point is 00:03:24 It was different times, everyone. Right. It was allowed back then. I think it was encouraged in the Bible, in fact. So the shepherds- Where was cancel culture then? Man, why didn't they fix this? They put him on a cross.
Starting point is 00:03:35 What are you talking about? Yeah. They canceled him. They killed him. Cancel culture was way crazier. That's what cancel culture was created. Yeah, I'm going to play an intro song. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:03:44 I've known that. But nah, the shepherds were just Mary's goons. Yeah. They were like, make sure Joseph didn't do nothing crazy. That's what cancer culture was created. I'm going to play an intro song. Oh, shit. I've known that. But nah, the Shepherds were just Mary's goons. Make sure Joseph didn't do nothing crazy. And then they brought gifts. Spices. To distract. Spices. Some cinnamon.

Hey, whole rest of the NBA said, hey, we're not even playing in the bubble. LeBron said, yes, we are.

That's what I've been tweeting since the last podcast. Well, they're right about all three of them. I don't care. I don't know y'all. I don't know y'all.
Starting point is 00:40:58 Y'all don't know me. I don't give a fuck. You know the thing about Ariana that keeps her out is the diction. Just enunciate anything. Is that what you landed on? That's where I landed on. I watched the special last night. It was great. She's got a great-
Starting point is 00:41:09 Oh, please. You love SZA. I do love SZA. She makes words her own. She puts an R in everything. That's a different thing. Or a W. Yeah, it's different.
Starting point is 00:41:18 That's a draw. You just can't understand what Ariana's saying, really. You just better not put an R in everything. I see the shot. I see what you did there. It was a bank shot. But I don't even do the A, so why would I do the R? Yeah, but they were right, Joe. You were wrong.
Starting point is 00:41:31 I don't care. I know you don't care. I do not. She is one of the best pop vocalists of all time. Better than the baby? For sure. A little more range. He's a pop vocalist? A little more range. Than a baby. What do you gentlemen think of Square and Cash App? I think they're a great sponsor.
Starting point is 00:41:48 What is the deal? Can we put up an article and give these people the background? Inquiring about purchasing Tidal. Well, I was just saying on Twitter the other day how I wish people could buy my album with Cash App. Full circle. Cash App heard you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:04 That's why they did the deal Listen, I have no inside knowledge at all But I predicted that Hov has been trying to sell Titles since he put all his albums And all Beyonce's albums back on Apple Music And Spotify I predicted it when Kanye went And that LA club stopped the music
Starting point is 00:42:20 And said Hov's trying to sell titles That's when it became clear You know what, that might have been it That's when it became clear music and said, Hov's trying to sell titles. That's when it became clear. You know what? That might have been it. That's when it became clear.
Starting point is 00:42:31 He's right. I can read between these lines. I see what he, I see the play. Yeah. I see the play now. Square Inc.,
Starting point is 00:42:37 the digital payment company run by Jack Dorsey. No, hold on. You got to fix just being in the club trying to catch a vibe.
Starting point is 00:42:44 Oh shit, Kanye grabs a mic. All right, man. I don't see how he hasn't been shot at. Damn. That's what Kanye did. It happened to Kanye? No, I don't want that to happen to him.
Starting point is 00:42:54 Of course not. Don't be silly. Square Inc., the digital payment company run by Jack Dorsey. Shout out to Jack. Shout out to any name mentioned in this segment. Absolutely. Any name that pops up here, champion it.
Starting point is 00:43:07 Has held talks to acquire the music streaming service. Title is part of a push to diversify. According to a person familiar with the situation. There's always somebody familiar with the situation. One of those. Was it you? Who leaked it? Oh, me?
Starting point is 00:43:21 Yeah. No, it wasn't me. How would it be me? Joe is only a Shade Room source. He DMs Shade Room all the time like, have you guys seen this yet? Ooh, have some piping
Starting point is 00:43:30 hot tea for you guys. Can y'all be serious about anything? Never, no. Honestly. Dorsey has discussed a potential deal with Maul and Jay-Z,
Starting point is 00:43:40 the rapper and music mogul and podcast mogul. I was going to say, who's the mogul who acquired title and elliot who acquired title for 56 million in early 2015 said the person the person who asked not to be identified because jay-z would fuck him up and let tata know that this nigga's leaking that this nigga's leaking information uh the negotiations may not result in a transaction. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:44:08 The negotiations may not result in a transaction is what they said. That's usually how negotiations go. Yeah, especially mine. Title, which first launched in 2014. I'm not reading this. Don't put struggle in the story. Fuck out of here. So what do we think?
Starting point is 00:44:23 What implications does this have? I think we'll hear more about this story. Fuck out of here. So what do we think? What implications does this have? I think we'll hear more about this around. More details to come. Yeah, end of January, February. We're not going to learn nothing right now. End of the year. Nobody's making no move right now. Title's my favorite DSP.
Starting point is 00:44:39 Well, you like it because they credit. Exactly. Correct credits. And the higher sound quality. And it's a black-owned business. Not until Jack steps in. Well, no doubt. Well, he's wearing all black.
Starting point is 00:44:53 How do you feel about it, Joe? What do you think the bigger picture is here? I wouldn't be allowed to say even if I knew. Ah, okay. And I don't know. Okay.
Starting point is 00:45:03 So, that's what I got. Just reporting the news. Do you think that this puts, in the event that it happens, it puts Tidal more in the competitive space with Spotify and Apple Music specifically, not Apple, obviously. I would be interested to see.
Starting point is 00:45:20 Now that they have more backing. I'm not sure, and I'm not sure that that's even their goal. Yeah. I'm not sure. I'm not sure of and I'm not sure that that's even their goal. Yeah. I'm not sure. I'm not sure of both. Because you don't even see much integration between Cash App and Square and Twitter, which are all Jack's properties. So I wonder how title, I wonder what would happen.
Starting point is 00:45:39 Well, what we know is that there's a Cash App record coming soon. Okay. Or maybe that's not public. I don't think it is. Breaking news, then. Wait, hold on. Cash App Records for the non-none? The 2000s?
Starting point is 00:45:53 Uh-oh. Call Juvie. Uh-oh. Huh? Get Manny Fresh on the phone ASAP. Nah, I still love this bitch. The album. That's the drop?
Starting point is 00:46:04 Huh? It's coming oh yeah we do know Cash App Records is coming and we know that Tidal plays music I would imagine I'd imagine that
Starting point is 00:46:14 there are some plays there that would develop you think they'll have Boom Bap on there and we know that you can tweet an album they have Boom Bap on there
Starting point is 00:46:22 we know you can tweet an album too so like Maul said we'll see yeah we'll see we'll see what it means you can tweet an album. They have BoomBap on there. We know you can tweet an album too. So like I said, we'll see. Yeah. We'll see what it means. I like all the apps involved in this one.
Starting point is 00:46:31 And that's not me being phony because we're sponsored by Cash App. I actually enjoy. Jack has that smile on his face like we're about to take over the fucking world
Starting point is 00:46:38 and you don't even know it. Listen, when we saw the picture of Jack and Hov and Tata just walking barefoot like smiling. Oh, I forgot about that. We kind of knew that they didn't just see a nice car and smile together.
Starting point is 00:46:51 You don't think it was a good joke right there? Yeah, no, not at all. When I saw four bottles of empty rosΓ© on a yacht with Hove and Jack, I knew something was up. Look at that. Come on, man. I'd like to see what- That's a finished deal.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Yeah. Yeah. That's done. Yeah, whenever you sip the rosΓ©. Look at the rosΓ©. Yeah. Hey, bring the finished deal. Yeah. That's done. Look at the rosΓ©. Hey, bring the kids out. Let the kids come out and celebrate. Blue added another billion to your trust fund.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Swag. Well, give us an update after Christmas dinner tomorrow with everybody. I got you. Maybe hit the group chat and we could tease the deal. I mean, if you've been watching Jay-Z for his career, all right, we're about to dick ride, but I'm getting out of here after the dick ride. I mean,
Starting point is 00:47:33 you just know that he's normally ahead of the business play. That's all I'm saying. Jack? What a good side piece you are. Jack too. Jay-Z, his influence dictates the move. I'll be watching. I don't know enough.
Starting point is 00:47:48 I don't have the range. I'll be watching. We'll let it play out. What else is important? What else is important? What else is going on? Are you guys going to do the show me a photo of challenge on IG story? Excuse me?
Starting point is 00:48:01 The new challenge. Show me a photo of. I've seen that one floating around. Yeah. I didn't know why. I'm already sick of it. Show me a photo of. Oh, I've seen that one floating around. Yeah, I didn't know. I'm already sick of it. It's been an hour. What are you talking about? It's just another.
Starting point is 00:48:11 You know the question thing that you can ask a question? Yeah. They put show me a photo of, and then their followers tell them what photo to post. It's just another way for the fans. This game is where? Instagram. IG story. FBI.
Starting point is 00:48:27 This is probably all thought up by the Reagans. Yeah, it's just another way for them to scan your face and just see what you look like from childhood all the way up until now. And people are doing this, and you said this started now, bro? At a rapid pace. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:38 It's been going on for a day. The feds just gaining data. The ladies, especially. I know you've been probably in pre-production for your Houston meetings. The Federales have been just trying to gather as much data at the end of the year as they could, Joe. The Federales. Get everyone's face.
Starting point is 00:48:53 Pronto. Well, that's what I was coming in here to tell you guys about the new Spotify Scammer Robot. I'm sorry? Is this for streams? The stream farm? The stream farm has turned into a robot? I think it's a little deeper than that. Really?
Starting point is 00:49:10 Tell us more. So there's a robot. AI. What's that? You're not AI. So there's a... Nor is Jill. Apparently, Spotify has some AI that you can put your music in, and they'll critique it for you.
Starting point is 00:49:34 A computer critiquing your music? Yes. I'm cool, man. That's kind of fucking hilarious. It's really hilarious. Oh, here we go. Your Spotify, blah, blah, blah, blah. Look.
Starting point is 00:49:43 It would roast your taste in music. You've been listening to some bullshit. Look, so this is the AI. Based on your listening habits, I can also tell you your Spotify was... Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, they're just going to analyze
Starting point is 00:49:57 everything about what you listen to. How real you think the robot will keep it? Like, yo, you ain't getting no pussy this year. Listen to this shit you listen to robot will keep it like you ain't getting no pussy this year listen to this shit you listen to yeah i like that do you guys have like a mature take about this um no not really i don't care they they a robot telling you what you like is does not more we've been telling robots what we want to hear for the past how many years how you think that they don't it wasn't gonna to tell us what we like of course this is part this is all we noticed
Starting point is 00:50:27 all of this was coming this is not a surprise but people are going to be stupid enough to put their music in this thing absolutely I think the music
Starting point is 00:50:36 isn't the thing whether you like it or not they're going to literally give their royalties to a robot and not even know it this is what I feel Joe by the time we see any of this
Starting point is 00:50:43 this was already six seven years into working. They're just now introducing it. This is the year-end wrap-up. Just utilized. Yeah, that's all it is. As soon as you could tell Alexa what to play, Alexa is storing all of that.
Starting point is 00:50:56 So now they have a faster way to process everything about you. Which is why they want your face now. I assume that this robot has some capability to get some more information from you that they weren't getting before the robot existed. Mm-hmm. And I would imagine that that information would be worth something to the data companies. I'm sure. Just a guess.
Starting point is 00:51:21 Yeah. I think it all comes down to just them wanting to directly- Rob you. Advertise to- Take your music. Who wants what. That's all it is. to guess yeah i think it all comes down to just them wanting to directly rob you advertise to take your music once what that's all it is like they know that you like candles okay so we're gonna put nothing but candles on your feet yeah that's all the shit is about and now they know we love snares you love this tempo this bpm this genre okay so we're gonna flood your fucking phone with this shit yeah now we're gonna score all the ads that we gave you because now we know what music you like.
Starting point is 00:51:48 That's all it says. Just why would you need a robot to tell you what your music taste is? You don't know your music taste? I do. Well, no, I think this is giving a critique. If you make music, you can put this in here too. I know. That's the big mistake.
Starting point is 00:52:04 That might be helpful though. Like if we trash your phone, can we tell you first? Please That's the big mistake. That might be helpful, though. Like, if you trash your phone, it's going to tell you first? Please. Read the small print. Save my ears. They're going to own your music. Where's the small print?
Starting point is 00:52:12 Oh, I thought it was there. No, I'm just saying. No, that would be bad, though, because the way algorithms work is on past data. So if you come with a new innovative sound and you're asking the computer to critique it, they're probably going to say it's ass
Starting point is 00:52:24 because they never heard it before. Do you see that right there? Finding a lot of Jake Hollier. Like a lot. Okay. Okay. So I found your gay people playlist. Whole lot of Mariah Carey there.
Starting point is 00:52:39 This is crazy. I'm going back to vinyl, man. I'm going back to vinyl. Cassettes only. I'm just going back to vinyl, man this shit I'm going back to vinyl Cassettes only I'm just going back to vinyl man Fuck this shit And dial up Yeah
Starting point is 00:52:48 I'm going back to vinyl Fuck this Everybody stop putting your shit on vinyl Cause this is crazy Yeah But as soon as you could tell Your phone what to play for you And there was Pandora
Starting point is 00:52:58 And all of that Like this is all part of that This is right on brand With all of that And there's All of it is to not pay anybody. Yeah. To get further and further away from paying creators.
Starting point is 00:53:09 I wonder if this is their Alexa answer. This is Alexa talking back? Yeah, kind of. I'm saying, what if Alexa's doing the same shit? And I don't know that. She is. She definitely is. She's listening to you.
Starting point is 00:53:22 Because Spotify don't have hardware. Is this their bad attempt at hardware? This is not hardware right now. We talked about that briefly in the kitchen last week. The eventual fight is the hardware and hard product people versus the data people. That's the big fight that's kind of looming. And you see it with Facebook and Apple are beefing right now about data collection and not giving people data. Because Apple, that's their big thing now is we're not giving people data because apple is that's their big thing now
Starting point is 00:53:46 is we're not giving people data we're not letting you take the data we're limiting and telling people what you're doing with the data because they make all their money selling phones and tvs and computers and facebook's like nah fam what type what type of hardware do you think spotify would want to get into if they were to go in that competition you would think some type of media player device tablet because they're doing pretty successful just living on apple shit even with apple music existing they're still in the lead i'm not sure after you log in with your Spotify account, the bot searches through your listening behaviors and literally just drags you on your Spotify streams to filth. Scream that.
Starting point is 00:54:29 Can you give us the real article? I got to see yours. When they go to your listening, I got to see what they say about yours. Maul, if you think I'm ever putting anything in a streaming AI robot, you can't think that about the guy that is still purchasing music, right? Oh, man. You know I know better than this Oh I would hope so That robot just about tell them all
Starting point is 00:54:49 You have a warrant in upstate New York Judging by your music taste Put on your shoes Rory The house is cleaning up Stop mopping your floors They are clean Talk to a therapist Parks you're wrong about Shady Hanks
Starting point is 00:55:12 Oh no he wasn't the brother I knew that All white people look the same But he's in the show He's the brother's man That's true That's fine But I knew that
Starting point is 00:55:20 That dude that got off that bus At that fucking cemetery Was not no fucking chance. That's all right. I can admit what I'm wrong. No, that's fine. But I know I would have laughed as soon as I saw him.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Like, what the fuck is this? But apparently he has a fairly big role in the show. Yeah, they said he has a role coming up. All white people look the same. There's a lot of Jamaicans in New Orleans, so I'd imagine why he would be cast. Makes sense. All right. I think we got a little more information.
Starting point is 00:55:46 Hovane, what's going on, man? I could say that Hov coming through. Good to see you. Oh, I know that coat. That's a nice coat. I know that coat. This nigga getting too much money. Right?
Starting point is 00:55:56 Hovane, why you getting so much money, man? This guy. This guy. I'm attending that Huh That's why I asked That's why I asked Your shoe size
Starting point is 00:56:08 Look at you Oh okay Appreciate you man Thanks Murray Wow Oh man Kix Kix what's good man
Starting point is 00:56:17 What's up with you Thanks man Get out of town Oh man Look at these I'm bringing these Right to Fight Club What you bringing bringing these right to Fight Club. Were you bringing it to it?
Starting point is 00:56:27 Right to Fight Club. Yeah, Grail about to get these right away. I might. I might. I might could get these off. How you doing, sir? Wait, Maul gets more gifts? Oh, Maul got an extra box.
Starting point is 00:56:41 Peace, brother. How you feeling, man? Oh, would you look at that? It is Christmas. Man. Get out of here, brother. How you feeling, man? Oh, would you look at that? It is Christmas. Man. Get out of here, man. Thank you. We appreciate that, sir. These are nice. You know that. You know I need these.
Starting point is 00:56:55 You know that, right? Everybody knew that. Fuck out of here. Ooh, what you gonna match them up with? You got it already? You know? You know he thought of the lay of the moment he saw him Thank y'all man Appreciate that
Starting point is 00:57:13 Yeah it was really nice of you guys That's love Thanks No that was great man They told me Hovain fell off After the artist was firing him But uh
Starting point is 00:57:22 The streets be lying man The streets be lying, man. The streets be lying. Hovane ain't fall off. Fuck out of here. Never that. Thank you. I'm coming through with those.
Starting point is 00:57:31 He ain't fall off. I appreciate that. That was nice. That was great. All right, so what do we have here? We have on the Wayne Masters selling. Oh, yeah, we got some inside scoops. Maul went and did some research, called up Sylvia. Hit Taz real quick Yeah you know
Starting point is 00:57:47 Something like Nah nah nah That wasn't It wasn't nothing like that Hip Hop called me Cause he had heard the show So he does that From time to time
Starting point is 00:57:54 He'll call in with like Certain facts about Things we talk about Tidbits And he just kinda broke it down Yeah he just kinda broke it down But it was like It was what we kinda figured
Starting point is 00:58:03 Wayne doesn't own all of Drake's portion. He sold what he owns. We didn't think that Wayne solely owned all of Drake or Nicky's stuff. No, no, no, no, no. But it's less than what I think people would probably think it is. So he sold a fraction for $100 million. Over $100 million. What did that change? I'm going to say, yeah, it didn't Over $100 million. What did that change?
Starting point is 00:58:25 What did it change? I mean, it changes the perception that he owned more and probably deserved more, which I still think he does. We were saying that he probably deserved more before any reports of the Drake, Nicki stuff being included. Just him we were saying he deserved more. Without a doubt. But there's legal things and paperwork and contracts that weren't or were signed.
Starting point is 00:58:49 And we don't know the logistics of his business dealings. We don't know the splits. Yeah. But it was good to hear that it wasn't as much ownership as I probably thought it was. Sure. That's all. And then he doesn't... I don't think Wayne owns his masters either,
Starting point is 00:59:06 so I doubt it. Then how'd he sell them? Well, he sold the Young Money portion, I think was what the report said. Yeah. And he was cash money. Of what he owned, the percentage of what he owned
Starting point is 00:59:17 from Young Money. I guess. I mean, listen. I still think, even if he owned Young Money and how joint ventures usually work and he was under cash money, I still think $100 million is too low for the portion he would own of his music, Drake's, Nicki's, and Tyga's. I'm with you on that. I'm definitely with you on that.
Starting point is 00:59:39 Yeah. But it is good to hear that it wasn't as bad as we thought it was. Because I didn't even want to entertain it at first. Why? He was invested? No, it was just like, damn, I hope he didn't make a bad deal like that. Because we heard that he didn't even talk to his lawyer or man. We was hearing everything when this shit first came out.
Starting point is 00:59:57 I'm like, nah, I don't even want to feed into that. You know, I don't believe anything that I hear or read about the music business. That's a smart way to approach it. Yeah. I'm not mad at you on that, but I'm saying when you speak to people that have business dealings with these artists and they give you more insight, it is like,
Starting point is 01:00:15 Oh, okay. It's a sort of sigh of relief. Like, okay. Yeah. It probably wasn't as bad or it isn't as bad as I thought. It might be a decent deal.
Starting point is 01:00:22 And also I could see like you always talk about how you would never want to have artists because then you have the pressure of maintaining their whatever i could see being like you know what let me let me cash out of this and get away from being the guy that owns a portion of all these people's shit i agree i could just not with drake and nikki no doubt no doubt doubt. Or me being Wayne. Yeah. But no, we said it, but Joe spoke to it, like you said, he spoke to it earlier this year about Wayne deserving more. Absolutely. Than what he's probably
Starting point is 01:00:54 receiving because of his influence, because of what he's ushered into the culture and things like that. And I agree with Joe 1,000% on that. Funny you said that, Parks. With the, because I never really thought about about it but with the devaluing of music uh as of late i am starting to see less and less of the yo fam decline um i am starting to see less and less of the people that have an artist. What do you mean?
Starting point is 01:01:28 Artists that have artists? Like a vanity label. In the 90s and last decade, everywhere you went and whoever you spoke to, you were guaranteed to meet somebody with an artist. The cosign was big, especially in the 2000s. And now, not so much. It feels like. I could be wrong because I'm out of touch. But it don't feel like even on the chatty house i mean i'm listening to people talk there's not so many people saying hey i have an artist well hey check this out it's not i think because it's more
Starting point is 01:01:57 so the artists it's the artists now saying yo check me out independence yo i got some music yo independence there's a lot more lanes though There's a lot more lanes To get some bread Upload your own shit Get your own LLC People know the game They've learned from Previous artists
Starting point is 01:02:12 And their stories And their business dealings I think that's dope though You know what I mean I think a lot of that shit In the early 2000s Mid 2000s With labels giving artists
Starting point is 01:02:22 Labels Deals Labels And then the artists Making their homeboys head of A&R. These niggas know nothing about me. I think that fucked up a lot of shit. I'm not going to lie. There was a lot of people that got put on through someone else
Starting point is 01:02:34 that we didn't need to hear music from. Absolutely. Of course. But I do feel like outside. There was some gems. Well, that's the game. Yeah. That's the game.
Starting point is 01:02:42 Like this morning I was just reading, I think DaBaby has a label situation now. I wouldn't be surprised. well that's the game yeah that's the game like this morning i was just reading um i think the baby has a label situation now i wouldn't be and he introduced his his lineup of of course all north carolina niggas that he knows and fucks with um and i was just reading how he felt about him and i was like well yeah he's he's that guy he falls into the criteria of people that should be given a shot to put his homies on absolutely absolutely here we go the baby introduces the artists on his billion-dollar baby entertainment roster the billion-dollar baby is distributed through well I'm assuming the same label he's on most likely it doesn't say but I'm assuming
Starting point is 01:03:17 that yeah baby's one Atlantic I don't think so Interscope Interscope That sounds a bit more like it And he is now This label is distributed Through I'm just going to guess Interscope It's a reasonable guess Yeah Since they distribute like
Starting point is 01:03:36 A third of Well I mean not Totally necessary Because Ross Like when Ross was on Def Jam They didn't give him His joint venture He had to go to Atlantic
Starting point is 01:03:44 True Well that was a mistake You think? Ross was on Def Jam. They didn't give him his joint venture. He had to go to Atlantic. True. Well, that was a mistake. You think? I'm not going to harp on all the mistakes that they've maybe made in the last 15 years, but I'm sure that was one of them. Yeah, it's a lot of mistakes. Congratulations.
Starting point is 01:03:59 Congratulations to this man. Congratulations to the baby, every artist on his roster. It does feel good to see him. Let me get a round of applause for him. That's good news. But no, I still think this is prevalent in the hip-hop world now. Like, your Dreamvilles, OVOs, and TDEs are still in that realm. QC. I do feel like that cultural black exec, like Dame, Irv, Rough Riders,
Starting point is 01:04:26 like that I kind of wish was more active now than it was. Well, you just named four big labels. Well, I mean, outside of QC, they're all rappers. I mean, well, I guess Top Dog isn't, but for the majority. Dreamville's got some alternative stuff. No, I mean, who owns who owns like oh okay Drake Kendrick is signed to that but got you got you see you like just the soul like what QC is yeah just a sole exact that's all you do and you have a ear for that shit and
Starting point is 01:04:54 you know how to promote that shit and artists can just be artists on that without having to just constantly think about the business and you have the right person that can go and fight with the majors or whoever you're partnered with the way an artist may not want to because they're creative and they're working on fucking music like the way jay could be in the studio and dame could go fucking scream on everybody when something was wrong right that's an important thing i feel like because i mean even like for example if the baby's artists have a problem he's still signed to that label too it it can become someone of a conflict of interest when you don't have someone.
Starting point is 01:05:28 And he may. I'm just for conversational purposes. I suppose your manager could be that, but you are still the head of your label. So yeah, it can really cause some friction. I think that's why we saw Jay stay with Def Jam, because he didn't rub everyone the wrong fucking way, because he didn't have to. But now that I just heard you say all that, now I'm in support of the way that Rick Ross did it, though.
Starting point is 01:05:52 Because if I'm one of these artists, not one of the baby's artists, but if I'm one of the acts that is being put on by the bigger act at the same label, I probably would push for, no, nigga, sign me somewhere else. Because that's a different building with a different staff probably would push for it. No, nigga, sign me somewhere else. Because that's a different building with a different staff,
Starting point is 01:06:09 different beliefs. That's the Wu-Tang model. They're not invested in my big bro, and they might put the whole building behind me, and I might have a runway to be more successful than the person that signed me or found me. I would want that. Isn't that what happened with Ross and Meek?
Starting point is 01:06:25 I was going to say, it kind of played out that way with Meek. Meek is not Meek if he was on Def Jam. It may be true. I mean, I don't know, but it was definitely helpful. Ten minutes ago, we were talking about all the mistakes they made over 15 years. We do know what Meek would have looked like if he was on Def Jam.
Starting point is 01:06:40 He would have had a run. He had some real undeniable records that even any label couldn't fuck up. You mean like 2 Chainz? Sure. Oh, touche. That's why it's hard not to fuck with Rick Ross or like Rick Ross. I didn't know he felt like that. When you look at the way he handles business and the way he is with his artists, he gives people their own space. He's godlike. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:07:09 He is, though. He's made in the image of Christ. We all are. Free. Absolutely. Happy birthday. He does a good job of that. A lot of people, they'll hear a record from the artist they signed, and they're like,
Starting point is 01:07:21 well, shit. I could take that and make that my new. Ross doesn't seem like he does that valid it's like live over there do you because the perception may be that even right now that meek is bigger than ross right now i think that's a pretty fair statement i don't think so me personally i don't think so but that could be the perception and that's to me that that speak speaks more to ross's getting out of the way of his artist don't look at me you are don't look at me no gays being out let's do it mr boom bat let's do it you tell him how we feel
Starting point is 01:07:58 well me currently sells more records meek is bigger than ross right now it's okay and i think ross would even want it that way. So I don't think that's a slight. Meek is in year nine or whatever year he's in and Ross is the elder statesman. But why do you feel that though? Just for conversation. Why do I think Meek is bigger? Yeah. Meek
Starting point is 01:08:18 sells more. Numbers, presence back to that presence word. Performance. Meek's presence today. He's aligned with the kids like he fucks with younger artists he gets on younger artist shit he stays relevant to what the conversation is at the time he looks cool okay i didn't know you felt that way i'm just listening i just like to listen to you to the thoughts he looks cool perspective he's such a fucking loser no but by that criteria
Starting point is 01:08:50 would we you don't feel like that no hotter okay Mika's hotter what did we say bigger
Starting point is 01:09:03 pause if Mika and Ross put out an album January 2021 on the same date, who do you think is selling more? What's the first single? No first single. Both just dropping out. I think Ross. No. No.
Starting point is 01:09:20 I said I think Ross. Well, you're thinking- And I love Ross, but- Okay. I love Meek. I think Ross and I love Ross I love Meek I love Ross this is all point to Ross' ability to just let his artist like your fam he's been brilliant at that
Starting point is 01:09:34 but a lot of dudes don't do that Ross don't care man I know what you mean Ross don't care nothing about what we saying man he is so thorough and business acumen and just move in a certain way. And I think a lot of that sauce is on Meek. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:56 I think Meek just does it in a Meek way now. But Ross is just as cool as the other side of the pillow, man. He don't care. True, sir. He reminds me of Fat Joe in so many different ways. It's the same cloth. You can see certain things when artists or people speak and they talk, that they have certain beliefs and certain things that are alike.
Starting point is 01:10:21 I'm sure some of that lineage got passed around fairly directly. Absolutely. Absolutely as well. And I'm glad Norrie knew that he didn't want to see Fat Joe in the verses. Nori underplays himself though. We talked about that. I know,
Starting point is 01:10:32 but I don't think he was fronting on his Fat Joe take. I think that would be a good battle. I think Nori looks to Fat Joe like most people should look to Fat Joe. But I do think that would be good. Fat Joe needs a verses though. He does. But he already said he would be a good idea. Fat Joe needs a versus, though.
Starting point is 01:10:45 He does. He needs a versus. But he already said he wouldn't do that because he'd get mad at niggas. He said he what? He said he would get mad. Why? Do you want me to ask him? No.
Starting point is 01:10:55 I mean, he didn't say why he would get mad. I'm not calling him. No, I'm just figuring he might have said more. He would get mad. Why, though? He said he has a temper. And what else did he need to say
Starting point is 01:11:06 don't be playing your fucking hits next time so I have a temper so when you play your hit I'm gonna hit you my nigga
Starting point is 01:11:11 yeah but what he said I think I'm not quoting was like what happens I'm playing my joint I think I'm vibing
Starting point is 01:11:17 and here goes somebody else wanna play a hit right by him nah that's what that's what I kind of feel
Starting point is 01:11:23 turn your shit off don't play your shit I kind of feel it turn your shit off like't play your shit I kinda feel him turn your shit off like to nerve you yeah fucking sit there and enjoy Lean Back shut the fuck up

Starting point is 01:14:09 Y'all thought 40 invented the chord switch The words love and light both have four letters But they're two different things all together Cause I've liked many ladies in my day But just like the wind they've all blown away Seek to love someone, it's an atmosphere You're a good man. I really hope we don't lose anybody else this year. I hope this is the last person. I hope John Ecstasy Fletcher of Houdini is the last death that we have to report on, honestly.
Starting point is 01:14:39 Hey! So I was like I had to be maybe 7 or some shit Whatever this guy I don't know what year this came out But I was like 7 or 8 or 6 Or something like that 87?
Starting point is 01:15:02 86? It was 86 86 So yeah I feel like it was 87, 86. It was 86. 86. So yeah, when I asked this question, I was seven. But like, this is when all my uncles was drunk and shit. And like, this is what they was bopping to when they was kind of cool. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:20 And I was so confused because, and I don't know which song came out first, but I heard When Freaks Come Out At Night first. I think that came out first. I heard that first. That was my first Houdini song I ever heard. And when that song was out, my drunk uncles on Popside was going crazy. That was like their WAP. Right?
Starting point is 01:15:38 That's funny. And then One Love came out. That was two years earlier. Then they all were romantic. And I remember being a baby and asking, hey, isn't this the same guy from The Freaks Come Out at Night? I was so confused about this. Found a freak and fell in love.
Starting point is 01:15:54 Uh-huh, listen to this. Take this, LL. That is so hard, man. Rest in peace, Ecstasy. Rest in peace. Yeah, rest in peace. How did Ecstasy pass, man? I'm so sick of reading that people have transitioned.
Starting point is 01:16:08 They haven't determined the cause of death yet. Oh, I hate when that happens, too. 56 years old. That's young, man. That's very young. Jesus, that is young. Yeah. Houdini's a great group for old school hip hop for younger kids to check out, because
Starting point is 01:16:21 a lot of that shit is lineage of shit that's happening today. Larry Smith, one of the greatest producers ever. synthesizers 808s all that shit was being used then and just style too the clothes clothes yeah and houdini's been sampled a lot a lot a whole lot that's how the young kids know to appreciate somebody yo did all the people that sampled this one that's how it does mean something. That shit means a lot. That is a stat, huh? Definitely a stat.
Starting point is 01:16:47 I grew up in late 90s listening to hip hop and I thought old school hip hop was the trashest shit in the world, but then I would go back and listen to it and realize how much of that
Starting point is 01:16:56 was being utilized in the shit that I was listening to and it made me appreciate it. So yeah, when people sample shit, it brings new life to it. Okay. I'm with him yeah
Starting point is 01:17:08 so who are the top five most sampled hip hop hacks I think I think there's actually stats I think Biz Markie is one he's up there he's up there
Starting point is 01:17:20 Rakim obviously he's up there I think every line in Painful has been used for something else at some point. I'm sure. Houdini also has been sampled a lot. Friends probably has been sampled.
Starting point is 01:17:32 One of the highest songs ever. I would imagine. Yeah, I'm not sure beyond that. Ultramagnetic MCs, as far as old school hip hop. EPMD. Oh, is this an actual list of that? Oh, there we go. This is an actual list of...
Starting point is 01:17:51 No, this is the top 20 greatest hip hop samples of all time. Oh, I'd like to read what they think that is too. The 20 greatest hip hop samples of all time. Start at one, Screen Man. We don't got time. Yeah, please, please, please. I don't, yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:04 I don't want to start at 20. All right. Number one. That's 13. Scream Man, you don't come ask for the Savon raise anytime soon, please. According to the Snitch site, Public Enemy has been sampled the most. Run DMC would be second. Big would be third.
Starting point is 01:18:23 Run DMC for sure. Okay. According to this list. Big would be third. Run DMC for sure. Okay. According to this list. Of hip hop artists. Of whosample.com they say number one Wu-Tang Cream.
Starting point is 01:18:35 I mean. Does anyone want to do a deep dive? That was sampled the most. Jay-Z was next. Eric B. You can rock him. Slick Rick.
Starting point is 01:18:43 Nas. Yeah, makes sense. Let's talk about some R&B. I'm done with this boom bap shit. No, no, Slick Rick, Nas. Yeah, makes sense. Let's talk about some R&B. I'm done with this boom-bap shit. No, no, let's get back to boom-bap for two seconds. Royce has a room on the Chatterhouse talking about Eminem. Hmm. Yeah, Royce, get your shit off.
Starting point is 01:19:00 Marshall, stop. I can't with the Lil Pump tough thing, dot, dot, dot. I don't know what that means. What did him say about Lil Pump? No clue. Screen man? Savon? Someone that asked for a raise?
Starting point is 01:19:14 Anyone? That's funny, though. That Royce just... Well, let's check the Google speed on double raise man right here. Lil Pump puts Eminem on blast saying he is lame and that no one listens to him. I hate that term. What does that have to do with him? That's what Lil Pump said about Eminem.
Starting point is 01:19:31 Fam. Why are we letting Lil Pump say shit? First of all, I'm not. Lil Pump can't. Why does Eminem respond to all of these people now? I don't know if he did. I'm not saying to Pump.
Starting point is 01:19:41 I'm just saying to the people that he has responded to. Why is he responding? You're to Like why Why is he responding Your big pump Why is he responding To big pump Yo this is He's part of the He's part of the kids
Starting point is 01:19:53 Right I don't know this nigga I don't give a fuck About this kid But he's part of the kids That just pop out Every four or five months Say or do something
Starting point is 01:20:03 Really really really stupid And then people talk about him I have not heard one of this kids songs I don't know what he does I just know Adam 22 keeps talking to him that's all you know that's all you need to know us this who the fuck gives Lil Pump the right to talk about Eminem? Adam 22 Who the fuck get Adam 22 Donald Trump This is just starting to get egregious now Yeah
Starting point is 01:20:32 Like come on But but but Come on come on come on come on But let me ask you something though Like you know something is wrong when I feel the need to jump to defend Eminem too But what is wrong with people saying they don't listen to him anymore? It's wrong with him saying anything Why?
Starting point is 01:20:45 Because he should be mute. Nah, I mean, he can say that. Oh, please. That's his opinion. He's 12. No, he's not. He said,
Starting point is 01:20:53 fuck Eminem and call him a bitch. Yeah, come on, man. Come on. Come on, come on, come on. I mean, come on. Never worry. Come on.
Starting point is 01:20:59 Whatever. This is right on brand for Em. Em has beefed with pop stars his whole career. More. Has he not? Lil Pump ain't no pop star. If you think Lil Pump is a... More, please stop pop stars his whole career more has he not Lil Pump if you think Lil Pump
Starting point is 01:21:06 is a I'm not saying baby and Lil Pump are in the same category I'm not saying Pump is I'm just saying like are we about to argue that's what he
Starting point is 01:21:14 that's what M does though he talks to Trump once and he's a pop star for you no I'm just saying that's what that's what Eminem does though he always gets into little shit like this though
Starting point is 01:21:20 which is why I don't understand why he even but he responds to it I don't think he even this is a Lil Pump move he did it with J. Cole he did it with other people like if you just ignore him they go away it's mad easy that's why i just said i don't know why m was on records naming names and going at people like what are you doing i would never do that if i was him i don't give a fuck who doesn't listen to me i'm a legacy act at this point i want to do away with the term clout chasing why because they it's real because no it's not what hear me out okay
Starting point is 01:21:48 it's called existing at this point i think it's called it should be called like clout running and chase i'm running in place why explain clout chasing alludes to you being able to achieve something. And I think that for the clout chasers, that goal is never over. Like, you don't get a certain amount of clout, air quotes, and then say, okay, I'm good with this. No, you keep chasing it. You start naming bigger names. You start going after bigger people. okay let's let's let's play along little pump says fuck eminem he can suck my dick he a bitch he can't fight whatever
Starting point is 01:22:31 whatever's gonna make him angry it goes viral for 10 minutes you get hot for a day and then the next day what happens now what was the point of yesterday? What did that do? When are you able to cash in on your clout? You go to a casino, you get chips, you win, you cash them in. When can I cash in on my clout? I get it that there's data and research and analytics that are making people do and say things thinking that they can run numbers up and cash in on them. that they can run numbers up and cash in on them. But even that thinking is flawed when the numbers are on the DSPs who are not really sharing numbers with you anyway.
Starting point is 01:23:13 They've been dead at that. So, I mean, when I see this a week from 2021, like this was the wave the last three years. I don't think this is going to continue to be the wave because I think niggas is hip to it i think he's just late like i don't think no he's not late he's actually early he's one of the like he's been well he might be early and late what i'm saying is i don't think he's one of the i don't think he has so much ability to rely on no i think this kid is an idiot i don't i don't think the word chase is where it should be changed. The word clout, by definition, influence or power, especially in politics or business. We can leave that second part out.
Starting point is 01:23:51 Influence or power. Doing fuck shit on the internet that people comment on and follow you because of it is not influence or power. So the word clout is being misused. But can it be on line? It could be. I mean, what was the first part of it? Influence or power. You have a little bit more influence if you have more
Starting point is 01:24:09 followers. I'm going to look up the word influence. The appearance of influence and power doesn't mean there's influence. Okay, influence. The capacity to have an effect on the character, development, or behavior of someone or something. Or the effect itself.
Starting point is 01:24:25 I don't think doing fuck shit on the internet is influence. I agree. Well, it's influencing other kids to do fuck shit. That's what this is all about. Okay, maybe I stand corrected. We watched Lil Pump chase clout all the way on stage with Donald Trump. Okay, important influence. I'm just saying.
Starting point is 01:24:42 I'm just saying. He put a video out, said Trump's name. Next thing we know, Trump is shouting him out at his rally. Brought him on stage. Call him what you want. The kids that would be influenced by Pumped are not old enough to vote. That's not true.
Starting point is 01:24:58 What are you talking about? This kid, he's a big star on YouTube. This nigga's a fucking idiot. He may be. I don't know him. I'm just saying. A lot of people Look at this fucking da-dum-da-dum. I'm just saying a lot of people watch this kid is what I'm saying. Yeah, but I think that's part of the problem because the more you justify it with this kid is a big star wherever they're a big star at, that rationalizes the clout chasing and the stupid shit. Because it's like if we could just say that, if all that matters in the end is I'm big somewhere
Starting point is 01:25:25 then fuck it I'm with it clout chasing is just wanting to be mentioned by somebody bigger than yourself or be acknowledged by someone bigger than yourself
Starting point is 01:25:34 and getting views you don't monetize is not are his eyebrows done? that's what you want to know? I don't know I don't know his skin care routine I think man's got some nice brows and listen influence i might go get mine done
Starting point is 01:25:49 a lot of people watch this kid i don't know let's play it let's play a game let's do it tell me what hip-hop looks like the next three years i would say five but i don't want y'all to use that much foresight. What does hip hop? The next two to three. Give it to me. We did this in 2018, 2017, somewhere around there. And here I am putting y'all on that spot. What does it look like?
Starting point is 01:26:18 That might be hard to do coming off a difficult 2020. Yeah. We don't know what anything's going to look like. But I don't care. I still want to hear it. He has pissed me off now. Give me your imagination. Is this still happening in 2023?
Starting point is 01:26:30 More than ever. I don't know. That goes back to the data versus the hard model. We'll see. As soon as Instagram says they're going to start paying you for likes and comments, what do you think is going to happen? I'm telling you what they're not going to do is start paying you for likes and comments. You don't know that. You don't know that.
Starting point is 01:26:46 You don't know that. You do not know that. You cannot say that confidently. Okay. So just think about it. Just think about it. Repeat what you're saying, Taki. If Instagram or any of these
Starting point is 01:26:56 social media sites start saying, we're going to pay you for all of your retweets, your comments, and your likes, then this is just the beginning of cloud chasing this one i'm with parks they're not doing that okay not the likes they'll find a different way for you to get the
Starting point is 01:27:11 money like they're talking about you getting paid from your insta live now i'm sure they have some i'm sure they'll continue to have certain uh tastemakers and influencers that get paid per post but you don't get to get paid per like. Even if it's a penny, even if it's two cents per like. It won't be. I'm just saying. So in 2023. It'll be YouTube money, if anything, which is not real money.
Starting point is 01:27:35 Maul says clout chasing will be more alive than ever before. You say what? I feel like there is at some point in the next four years, which may go beyond the three year scope, there will be an intervention from government or business regulating the companies that rely on data
Starting point is 01:27:54 to make their money. So I think that cloud chasing as a result will diminish. Say that again? I think that the government and just the nature of business will eventually start to dampen down
Starting point is 01:28:09 on companies that rely solely on data. Which they have. We're seeing seeds of it. I think that that will continue to happen and probably accelerate in the next couple years. Agreed. And as a result, I think clout chasing will decline
Starting point is 01:28:24 because there won't be as much data value in data in the way that it is today well i don't know because i think a lot of people that do the clout chasing shit are not getting any value but attention like like i said of of yeah all right you're you're getting all these views that you're not monetizing you're doing it for attention for ego for to say look getting all these views that you're not monetizing. You're doing it for attention, for ego, to say, look at all these people talking about me. The quote-unquote clout chasers aren't necessarily making money, so they'll still continue. Someone's going to make money.
Starting point is 01:28:55 I get it, but if there's less incentive to do it because the data companies are being hampered by the government or just the fact that Apple is now blocking data companies from mining data from your phone. I think there will be less incentive to do it because there will be less that type of shit in general on the internet. I think the internet will be used in a very different way in the next three to five years.
Starting point is 01:29:21 I think you're giving the idiot cloud chasers too much credit. All right. We got more. We got more to right, we got more to predict. We got more to predict. I don't want to get married here. 2023, 2024, there's more artists
Starting point is 01:29:30 or less artists? More. What do you mean? Successful ones, relevant ones, or just injustice? Volume. More.
Starting point is 01:29:39 I think more, for sure. It's easier to create music because that's not going to stop. I don't think playlisting is going anywhere. So you don't have to continue to make albums to be successful. You can do singles. And each playlist has a different artist.
Starting point is 01:29:53 I told y'all four years ago it's easier to get on. You tell us every podcast. It is. And it's getting easier. I say less. I think I'm rolling with less. And that's just if I'm looking out my window right now. All the artists that I love, I'm begging them for an album.
Starting point is 01:30:10 It's been years. It's been years. I think we'll see a lot less megastars, maybe, putting out music, continuing to put out. There'll be people still rising to it. This current crop of megastars that we have, we'll probably see less and less from. But there'll be new people to
Starting point is 01:30:25 replace them. That's just the way the music industry is. I don't think much is going to change the way it hasn't changed in the sense that How many stars we got now? Lyrical artists, artists with integrity, artists that have substance, artists that make real music will always continue to be on
Starting point is 01:30:41 top and there will always be fuck shit. So yes, it will change, but has it really changed much on a top surface level? No. Real music always is number one, no matter what. You can clown lyrics all you want. Lyrical rappers have been number one since the 80s and that's never going to change.
Starting point is 01:30:59 And they're dropping albums every four years. That's not true. You think Drake is a lyrical rapper? Yep. Doesn't drop. Okay. You think Drake is a lyrical rapper? Yep. Doesn't drop every four years? You think Cole is a lyrical rapper? Yes, he does. Cole does not drop every four years.
Starting point is 01:31:12 Three years. Two, maybe. I think less. Okay. I think less. But even if they drop albums, they're still, they're very active, though, in the years that they don't drop albums. I don't care about that.
Starting point is 01:31:22 I care about the circulation of money that keeps the music industry afloat. That's what I care about. I don't care about how active people are out i don't care about that i care about the circulation of money that keeps the music industry afloat that's what i care about i don't care about how active people are i don't care about that right now right now i care about who's who's making the money and where is it going 2023 2024 there's more money for the corpse or the artists uh i mean the trend has always been more towards the corporations in American history. So I would probably guess corporations. Yeah. So what changes in the next two to three years for the artists or for music? Because in listening to y'all, it sounds like y'all anticipate everything kind of remaining the same. I think we're going to see a lot of companies pop up that are going to start supporting the creators more.
Starting point is 01:32:03 that are going to start supporting the creators more. I think somebody's going to be smart enough to say, all right, listen, if we jump out here and start giving creators more for their creations, it's only common sense that we will become a big company. People will come to us. Maybe. Just pay the creators what they're worth. Maybe.
Starting point is 01:32:19 Somebody's going to do it. That's a lot of faith. I believe somebody's going to do it. I think that more artists will figure out how to make more money putting out music independently because I'm seeing it currently with the boom bap people that you yell at me for loving and supporting. They're making a lot of money doing shit themselves out the trunk of the car literally or figuratively.
Starting point is 01:32:35 I think you will see more of that. And it's hard. A lot of boom bap artists is making more money doing whatever you just said. What do you mean? All the ones we play on here. There's a huge community of boom bap artists that are making a lot of money pressing up vinyls themselves. That are making a living for themselves.
Starting point is 01:32:50 Making a very good living for themselves. Very good living for themselves. Well, because that's just the trick. I mean, we said it earlier, and maybe we'll have to flush this out on our own time. The solution probably is vinyl coming back, CDs coming back, direct-to-consumer, all of us, everybody,
Starting point is 01:33:06 so we can stop giving them things that they can take all the data from. How do we do that? I think just becoming aware of it. We can't bring back Virgin Megastore, can we? No. But it's not hard to...
Starting point is 01:33:21 They killed mom and pops, so we can't do that either. That used to be our way. But I don't think you have to... They stole all the mailboxes during the election. You can't mail shit. That's true. I don't think that you have to go to traditional being in-store retail
Starting point is 01:33:35 to be a valid retail establishment. In fact, most of the people that I know that are up during this pandemic, like we mentioned earlier in this podcast, are friends that work in online retailers. One of my best friends works in t-shirts and garments. One of my other best friends works in music instruments. And they are up, up, up, up, up,
Starting point is 01:33:54 up. And that kind of reflects in what's happening with people pressing up their own vinyls and merch and shit and selling it online and shipping it out themselves. Online retail and retail in general is very much alive in the cyberspace via the internet. All your buddies doing great. All Corey's
Starting point is 01:34:09 little stock buddies are doing excellent. Who else is doing good out there, man? Stocks. But it's all related. You can make money if you figure out how to make retail work for you online. That is true.
Starting point is 01:34:25 I'm all about to get his money from the susu, right? Your date is coming. Your week is coming, right? One day I'm going to come on here and really blast this nigga, Joe. Y'all going to be so mad. I'm asking a valid. I'll be sitting here keeping it real cool. I'm asking him.
Starting point is 01:34:39 I've been watching you for years pump money into the susu. I've been watching you for years. Waiting for your date. Yeah, I know. His time is coming. March is coming, right? Yeah. You're going to get all the susu. I've been watching you for years. Waiting for your date. Yeah, I know. It's time it's coming. March is coming, right? Yeah, yeah. You're going to get all the money then.
Starting point is 01:34:48 I know, yeah. 20 racks. 20 racks. Yo, why you should know me for saying you got a susu? I'm just saying. You're so offended by that. No, I'm just saying
Starting point is 01:34:57 that's just one of. Like, you just keep going. Like, all right, keep going. But the stuff that I say, it doesn't work. Like, the people that want to have sex with you, they don't believe none of that.
Starting point is 01:35:06 What did I say? Maybe. I don't know. No. I don't think it's about it. They still having sex with you. No, they're not. So I'm saying that's why I said maybe.
Starting point is 01:35:14 Did you have to get multiple gifts from women? No. Really? Mm-mm. Any gifts? No. If I want to, I will, but I haven't. I had a long list of people looking for the the baccarat bundle yeah the baccarat special
Starting point is 01:35:29 but spell it what is that it's perfume okay everybody wants to smell the same listen last year was that last year did someone rap about it is that why it's a thing agi honey no it's just expensive it's just expensive and anything they've never even smelled no they just because it's just expensive. It's just expensive. They've never even smelt it. No. Because it's expensive. No. Take your Michael Kors watch and shut up. That's my thing.
Starting point is 01:35:52 Don't ask me for Baccarat. If you can't spell Baccarat, never own Baccarat, don't have Baccarat. And don't know what it smell like. And what are you trying to smell good for? You ain't going nowhere. The big Baccarat is like $900. And it's probably a better value deal to get the big one because the small one is 500 this ain't an ad but it should be baccarat pay the fuck up last year when i went to the uh to the mason francis counter
Starting point is 01:36:17 it was empty not a soul knew about nothing i was over there just smelling stuff. This year, there are like five clerks back there. Yeah. Everybody running back there. Hey, the people that I just randomly thought of, right? Like, so you know during your Christmas shopping, you might randomly think of somebody you didn't plan on getting a gift for. Like the people I randomly thought of in here. Yo, you want some?
Starting point is 01:36:40 Yeah, Baccarat. That's what influence is, yo. Once one, you know, one of the IG honeys posted. That's what blew him up? You know, when I knew something was wrong, I was in Miami. I went to hug a girl, and she said, oh, Baccarat. I said, you know what? I had it first.
Starting point is 01:36:57 Before all you knew what it was, I was wearing it. What else did I get? I got the Sephora special just for people. Aw. Look at you. Shampoos, conditioners, little face makeup stuff. What else did I get? I got the Sephora special just for people. Okay. Look at you. Shampoos, conditioners, little face makeup stuff.
Starting point is 01:37:09 That type of stuff. I like it. Yeah, and some of that is for Rory too, but. I might get a few spa days for some people.
Starting point is 01:37:16 That's nice. Just gift card spa. Facial, manicure, pedicure. For the pod? Yeah, why not?
Starting point is 01:37:21 I can feel like for your corrosion. Look at their fingernails like, you know what? I can use it. I can use it. I can use it. No, I knew that.

Starting point is 01:44:52 but some things just will not change. He's the greatest receiver. He's up there. He would have to be... He played the Legion of Boom? I don't know who he played. I don't care who he played. I know he's the greatest receiver.

Starting point is 01:46:07 Great album He said he was putting it back out And he did Alright Well check that album out If you haven't already One of them boom bap niggas should rap over this. Like, Rizelda should redo this.
Starting point is 01:46:30 This song is one of the most sample songs. Yeah, I'm about to see a bunch of people rap on this thing. They should redo this. I don't want to hear a bunch of people. I want to hear them. Hey, you're school. Time to stop. Oh, no.
Starting point is 01:46:40 That was the hardest little... Hold on, I'm bringing it back. What a great way to have made the beat say uh-uh-uh before you start rapping. Like, what a way to make the beat say, oh shit, it's coming. You and O.C. are similar. All over the Christmas gift. You lack the minerals and vitamins. I have been tonight.
Starting point is 01:47:04 You lack minerals and vitamins. Look who been tonight. You lack minerals and vitamins. Think who I've been. Fuck the carpet. Fuck the carpet. rappers are in danger, who will use wits to be a remainder, when the missile is aimed to blow you out of the frame, some will keep their limbs and some will be maimed, the same suckers with the gab about, killer instincts will turn bitching, knowing damn well they lack, in this division the con is soar, cracking your head with a 4x4, realize sucker, I be the coming like Noah, always simmer you down, perpetrating for sartan, what you consider a image, to me this is just a
Starting point is 01:47:44 scrimmage, I feel I'm stoned Knock a Zabopo and my cat cock The more emotion I put into it, the harder I rock Those who pose lyrical but really ain't true, I feel Lose your body Lose your body You're not cool to me You're not tough to me You're not the measuring stick of what street is
Starting point is 01:48:16 I'm in the tongues about what you did But you never done it, admit it, you bid it Cause the next man came plottin' and behind it I find it ironic, so I researched and analyzed Most write about stuff they fantasize I'm fed up with the bull, on this focus of weed and clips And glocks gettin' popped, and wax now bein' flipped It's the same old, same old, just strainin' from the anal
Starting point is 01:48:35 The contact is not complex, the vex, so why you pushin' it? Why you lyin' for, I know where you live, I know your folks You was a sucker as a kid, your persona's drama That you acquired in high school and acting class Your whole aura is plexiglass What's up with you? This nigga's going crazy That's a lie, you was in church with your mom
Starting point is 01:48:54 See, I know, yo, slow your roll, give it good to go Guys be like it in this thing called rapping just for dough Of course we gotta pay rent, so money connects But I'd rather be broke than have a whole lot of respect Yo, this would be so hard if somebody just lowered the drums all the way down on this and just rapped over just the music. Now I feel like they might need drums. I don't know. Maybe.
Starting point is 01:49:20 But I'd even listen to that. Besides all the riffing, the traps are not sticking. Rappers start flipping for those who pose lyrical, but really ain't you. But I'd even listen to them. Dead Times Limited. Brand new old music that's OC times up. Oh, what up? What's up, bro? Fuck wild, what up? Rest's up, bro? Fuck wild, what up? Rest in peace, Rock Raider.

Starting point is 01:54:39 Allen Iverson denies a claim made by a former teammate that he occasionally spent $40,000 at a strip club when he was a 76er. And I'm quoting, first of all, it was like $9,000 at most. And there was never any strippers at the TGI Fridays on City Line, says Iverson, unless I brought them. Sometimes I brought a bunch. And I suppose in those cases, yes, the bill could get up to $40,000 because they didn't have endless appetizers back then. Legend. Legend. Legend.
