Yeah, yeah.
Like, this phone right here is, like, ideal size.
But I like a bigger screen.
I do like that.
I like the bigger screen.
I'm going to be happy when they make the slightly smaller one better with, like, battery life and shit.
Because I'll probably go back to that.
The one that's, like, the 5 size or bigger, a little bit bigger.
The 5 was the best size to me.

Yeah, sometimes I want to put the phone in my pocket and still feel saucy.
Well, that's because you-
No, you were just trying to work the shit with your one hand.
Still feel a little swaggy a little bit.
That shit is-
With the big joint in your pocket?
Nah, now you're getting a lap dance.

Yo, I just told this group of young people
The other day man
Know why y'all missing out being young
Y'all niggas never even met a virgin
Huh?
That might be true
Think about it
That might be true
That's dope though
No I said
I said why they missing out
You saying what's dope about a virgin meeting a
virgin yeah do you remember your first time meeting a virgin or your second or third or
fourth time meeting a virgin yeah now the context of that might have changed because
hoism is up yeah but if you remember meeting a virgin then why would you why wouldn't you want
the young kids to experience that?
Like grow together with somebody sexually. Yeah, like again, I remember my first, first like real adult relationship, she was a virgin.
Oh, nah.
I never slept with a virgin.
But you met some.
In your life?
Never in my life.
But you met some.
I met some, sure.
I'm sure.
How often do you think the younger kids get to meet one now?
That is far.
As they're dating at 19, 20, 21, 22.
I was catching the bus in the hood at 17, 18.
You see another fly girl.
You find out she, yeah, y'all both young, new.
It was girls in high school, like junior, senior year.
That was still virgins.
I think that's rare today.
I mean, I don't know.
Now, to your point today, maybe you don't want to meet a virgin today.
Why?
If you're a kid, though.
If I'm a kid, I would want to.
Yeah.
If you're a teenager, bro, there's nothing wrong with a virgin.
Oh, I'm about to serious out the joke combo, but I'm down with it.
Today, what do they see that makes them see value in virginity?
That.
You right.
That's what I'm saying.
I don't think an 18, 19-year-old male wants to meet a virgin today.
There's nothing that would appease them about a virgin.
Appeal to them.
Pill to them?
Same shit.
Yo, that's crazy.
I ain't, yo,
your brain, yo.
Yeah.
You right, though.
I never thought about that,
I guess,
because we older, but...

Welcome to episode 480.
470 years.
Your word.
Of the Joe Budden Podcast.
I'm your humble, gracious, grateful, and highly or lowly favorite host, Joe Budden, here with
a few really cool guys.
Parks is here.
Ish is here.
Ice is here.
And the whole video village is back there somewhere listening to Young Thug's album.
How's everybody doing?
This is great.
Y'all lit?
We gonna get to it?
Yeah, I know.
We gonna get to it.
How y'all doing?
Y'all good?
Straight.
Yeah, we good.
Y'all good?
We gonna have an efficient pod today.
We gonna keep this rolling.
Touring.
Do y'all think about it?
Does it crush your mind?
Is it a fear like speaking?
It used to be America's number one fear.
I think it still is.
It's up there.
It's still up there.
Yeah, it gotta be up there. It's up there. It's still up there. Yeah, it's got to be up there.
It's up there.
Public speaking is not a fear.
Which is hilarious.
Why?
Because you've done hosting tours and shows and shit.
But the touring?
I told y'all, I was like, nah.
Well, that's the flip side.
Yeah, you're thinking the tour is like hopping in the Sprinter van and driving for two weeks
or something like that.
No.
Oh.
I meant what the show consisted of on the tour.
Oh.
That's what had me parked up.
Yeah.
That's the fun part.
We can make it whatever we want to make it.
For you, it would be an adjustment in terms of lifestyle, I would think.
A new father.
A new family.
Right?
So how do you insert that in the mix?
Cause that can be tough.
It can.
Well,
maybe not so much in pod land.
With the way that we tour,
it wouldn't be that hard.
It's weekends.
Weekend gigs.
We do like a boutique style of touring.
And it's fun.
And it's fun.
It makes it tough to say no to the money.
It's nice hotels.
I was going to say that's,
that's the flip.
It's nice sprinter vans.
You asked me how adjusting to that.
The money. I'm just letting y'all know.
Just so we're clear, I'm
saying no to the money to give
my guys
an ample runway to
be comfy when we out there.
I'm cool with that. Is there such a thing though?
Yeah, it's true.
You told us a while back.
I'm like, fam, look, I'm going to be honest.
The venues would love for people to come out.
And they're trying to get people to come out.
All you got to do is look out there.
Everybody's doing something.
Before a potential lockdown comes back, too.
They trying to leave.
And not even that.
The people that they know could fill out a venue, they're calling them.
Yeah.
And they're reaching out to them.
And they're offering money.
But nah, not all money.
That shouldn't be the first time.
You should be as comfy as possible when you get out there.
And part of that, yes.
Yes.
I think the comfortability comes from experience.
Doing it, for sure.
Antoine, listen. Listen to this.
Because you about to get in the technical world,
and I just want to keep throwing shit at you. No, no, no, I shit at you let me throw but let me throw something at you before you do any of that
uh as as we stand today what's today october october october right 16th i think uh maybe
maybe i'll share some business they shot something over there said yo big gig christmas new year's
nj pack how do you feel and that's still sitting there, right?
You know how I feel?
You know what I hear when I hear that?
NJ Pack is huge.
Where you from?
Nope.
Where you from?
Where I'm from?
Jersey City.
First show.
Show number one.
Hometown.
Big, beautiful theater, hometown.
Everybody coming out.
Now, I toss back to you.
Give it to us. What you were saying? Joe says no. I think he shows up. Everybody coming out. Now, I toss back to you. Give it to us.
What you were saying?
Joe says no.
I think he shows up.
I say no.
But I say no.
And even if that would have happened,
that would never happen, show one.
Right.
That would never happen, show one.
For two people that's never, ever done it.
You've been around enough, show one.
I know.
No, no, no, no.
And you done fucked up some show ones too, nigga.
Probably.
Not, nigga.
No.
I'm done with that.
Yo, no, listen. What I'm saying is nigga. I'm done with that. No, listen.
What I'm saying is this.
I don't think we could ever... You ain't let me get it out.
I don't think we could ever really feel comfortable until you did it.
Right?
And you know I'm a shy guy.
So I got friends today like, yo, I can't believe that I'm seeing you on a podcast talking every fucking week.
And you're doing a phenomenal job, by the way.
That's new to me.
That's not really my thing.
And you're doing a phenomenal job.
I'm not trying to be funny. Give him a button. I'm trying to give you some flowers. Give him a button. I tell this shit all the time. So... You fucking week. And you're doing a phenomenal job. That's new to me. And you're doing a phenomenal job. That's how it be funny.
Give him a button.
I'm trying to give you some flowers.
Let me give you a button.
I tell you that all the time.
So,
until you do,
let's say you did two tour dates,
three tour dates,
four,
now that's where your comfortability lies.
We've never been on tour.
So you can't say that,
I don't care if we did a thousand pods,
right?
Until you go on tour, you're not going to feel comfortable.
But, now let me, hold on, hold on, hold on.
I'm just kidding.
I agree with that.
Your first show being your hometown, where everybody you know is coming out,
that's added pressure on top of it being your first show.
It's putting game seven first.
It can or it cannot be, depending on the person.
Some people might actually welcome
that comfortable environment.
Well, you can feel good
because you're home
and now you're getting
that home love.
Exactly.
But,
just in the research
I've done,
performance wise,
it probably won't be
your best show.
Your first show.
It's possible.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean,
when you say I fucked up
the first show,
you gotta take that
and build on it
and get better on the show. It's no different than the first pod. Why would you fucked up the first show, if anybody that's performed has fucked up the first couple shows.
and get better on the shows.
It's no different than the first pod.
Then why would you want to do that
to your hometown?
And that's where your comfortability is.
Because they might be
a little bit more forgiving.
It's no different than the first pod.
Let me tell you something.
That's where your comfortability comes.
I hear that.
Yeah.
Let me tell you
where Joe Budden's headspace is.
When New Jersey Pac sees me,
you want to be shot, polished.
It's going to be a movie, and I don't even use that word. Yeah, I feel you. But it's going to be shot polished it's gonna be a movie
and I don't even
use that word
yeah I feel you
but it's gonna be
you're talking to
somebody that
throughout my career
I didn't really
perform in New Jersey
because of the
stipulations of
New York and New Jersey
and those still exist
where they say
what's the shit
we used to do all the time
it was like a house
out there in Jersey
yeah deep deep deep
yeah
that was in South Jersey old house deep yeah that was in south jersey
but even that was because of the mal stipulations i'll give it to ish and i'll give it to the people
that don't know if you're performing in new york and you're from new jersey they'll say that's
nah we're expecting your new jersey audience to go to new york and you can't perform for this
amount of days from this date and this so many this amount of days from this date and this amount of miles from this
date.
That's why Stan Hope used to get the love.
That's why.
And they went crazy for us, man.
They went crazy.
Yo, some of these little venues that we visited.
It was a crib.
It's a crib in the middle of Jersey.
But they went so crazy, man.
Yeah, that was love over there.
Nah, they don't get as many acts.
Yeah.
So it's real appreciation. You know what I'm saying? Of course. Like, if you're in New York, you're in a major city, you're in get as many acts. Yeah. So it's real appreciation.
You know what I'm saying?
Of course.
If you're in New York, you're in a major city, you're in Philly, D.C., whatever the case
may be, they may take it with a grain of salt.
But when you out in wherever, they don't have jokers coming through there like that.
It's true.
And the funny shit is, I could have this tour talk all day, but I won't.
Me too.
I won't.
I'm talking to a geeky like that.
I missed it.
Funny thing is, what I'm saying to you about New Jersey,
the more I think of the other spots,
and that's why I say no to it all.
I don't want y'all to have that feeling at the other spots either.
Because, like, L.A. is a big show.
Chicago's a big show.
Atlanta be the big, big, big show.
Atlanta be lit.
Fucking where else?
Houston, Dallas, big.
They be big shows.. They be big shows.
They all be big shows.
And you now, I was talking to him about lifestyle and just inserting tour life into his new family life.
You though, I got a whole nother set of issues when it come to you.
We can discuss.
We can move forward.
Pun intended.
But you that dude
so you gonna be that dude
wherever we go
and that's gonna be a problem
you gonna have to turn down
your that dude-o-meter
honestly
I'm not even joking with you
you hear me seriously
look at me in my face
look at me in my face
you gonna have to turn that down
and I don't think you know
how to do that
at your big age
like he still wanna go to Dallas hit the mall be in lids I don't think you know how to do that at your big age.
Like, he still want to go to Dallas, hit the mall, be in Lids, fucking hit the food court.
Be in Lids.
He want to call some Ne-Yo.
Let's hit the food court right now.
Yeah, man.
You got to watch this guy.
He said Lids like it's Lids.
Yeah.
Because you think your DMs go crazy now.
And we don't have those talks.
I don't know because we don't have those talks we don't i don't know because we don't have those talks i know that shortly after you started this podcast you activated your socials
i can assume there's been more traffic than it was when your socials were dead right and i can
assume that some of the stuff they're talking to you about is your takes here your opinions
they see you now more than they've seen you so So it ups the volume, which scares women, but that's a talk for another time.
Why that scares women?
We'll stuff that.
So if you're getting ready to go on tour, the nature of those messages will begin to change.
If you don't turn your that do to me to down.
Okay.
That's true.
He's right.
You want me to tell you?
I'm not disagreeing with him. No, he don't disagree, but you want me to tell you I'm not what I know he don't
disagree but you want me to tell you what I think he heard from what I just
said I know we got a real good show lined up for y'all today day. You want to start with some music? Yeah, why not? The music is out.
Absolutely.
It wasn't a ton.
It was enough.
But this year's
been really kind of quiet to me.
The year? Yeah.
Musically? Shut up.
This is a loud music year.
I disagree. I'm used to pulling
three, four albums a week that I gotta
listen to. And this year is like pulling three, four albums a week that I got to listen to.
And this year is like
maybe one,
one in a possible.
Shut up,
Park.
I'm serious.
But Park's is a hip hop hit
more so than a R&B hit.
I'm both.
Yeah,
I listen to both.
I'm just saying,
but that's your prefer.
I'm used to pulling
three,
four albums
every single Friday.
This year it's one,
this week it was,
Doug shit didn't drop till this morning so I didn't pull any albums last night.
We said that this would be the year
of... Or I said, and I thought you agreed,
that this would be the year of...
The superstar comeback. Yeah. And we got that
a little bit, for sure. A little bit?
A little bit. Who we missing?
That's what it's been. Kendrick and Rihanna.
Rihanna. No comment.
I'm talking about rap. Rap superstars.
We got most of them. Only Kendrick. Andihanna. And they both, Rihanna, no comment. I'm talking about rap. Rap superstars. We got most of them.
Only Kendrick.
Only Kendrick.
And he's coming.
He's coming.
We got most of them.
And he's coming.
I'm like,
who else do I want to hear from?
There's no big act
that I want to hear from
outside of the big ones,
Rihanna,
Beyonce,
but they always have a place in my heart.
But the big artists
usually only drop once a year,
maybe once every year and a half,
right?
Every other.
And then the rest of it is filled with more up-and-coming acts, established underground acts, and stuff like that.
And they've been a little bit quieter this year.
That's all I'm saying.
But you would be quiet if they, too, can tell that the year is reserved for the big ass.
I know this is their year.
Adele announced last week, and we're going to talk about some of this stuff, announced last week.
That's just last week. Yo we're going to talk about some of this stuff. Announced last week. That's just last week.
Yo.
November such and such.
I don't know the date, so I won't say it.
But she said, yo, November such and such.
Get ready to be sad.
You know what that says?
Move.
Move.
Get ready to be sad.
No, it says move.
But it also says to the artist, move.
Yeah, I agree.
If you are up and coming actor and you're not as established,
you're not trying to plan around Adele's drop date,
SZA's drop date.
Or even if you was, it was, oh shit, we got to move.
Summer's drop date as an artist,
even if you don't respect these people's artistry,
you know the money behind them.
True.
So you know the real estate that they're going to take up.
We've had this conversation before, so I the money behind them. True. So you know the real estate that they're going to take up. We've had this conversation
before, so I disagree a little bit.
Well, because you as an independent
artist, while Adele drops, you
want to drop too. I want to be right there
on the same screen. So the artist that's looking
to make a ton
of numbers off of this, and Adele's
dropping, I want to move.
I want to make Adele's
music, I'd move. But if I don't make a dollar's
music, I want to be right there.
No, I don't want to be right there.
What it do? I want to be sitting right next to her.
Scroll right down the sideline.
I'm not mad at your decision making.
I just don't think that's
widespread. I agree.
Or,
if you're a middle level
artist, right? No disrespect. It's-level artist, right?
I don't want no disrespect.
No, of course not.
It's heavy hitters, right?
Yeah, yeah, no.
Shit is just opening back up.
Right.
You make your money from touring.
No doubt.
That's another part of it.
So that's still kind of up in the air with all of the states, et cetera, et cetera.
You don't want to release a project, and then you can't maximize on your project.
A lot of money.
And that, I will just throw this in to Park's's point and that's where i would have a tough decision because as an act
whatever level i'm in a b c well not a not a because they're going back but b c d my touring
i have to book out three to six to eight months before i even drop. Yeah. So me moving my drop.
Is that how it works?
Yeah.
Me moving my drop date if Adele is dropping means my team might have to
readjust my touring and that could be an issue.
I've been faced with that before and I went on tour.
I think whatever happened, there was no love lost.
I went on tour the first week it was out and nobody knew a thing.
Nobody knew any of the words
but we couldn't move it.
We got to go.
So I would factor that in.
Yeah.
That's all.
That's part of it.
That's part of it.
But let's start.
I didn't want to start with Adele
because I
She dropped first.
Let's start with Adele man.
Alright then let's start with Adele.
Can somebody play it?
Yeah I got you.
Somebody play it
and say positive things.
I will.
No I heard it.
I like that shit.
I'll get know the ledge ready the ledge is back
the ledge is back for me
I can't speak for nobody else
I'm gonna cry in my chair
get ready to cry in my car.
Get ready to cry in a glass of red wine.
What's the name of this song?
Easy On Me?
Easy On Me.
Brand new Adele.
It's called Easy On Me.
YouTube, we letting this rock right now.
Sorry. There is hope in these waters.
There's hope in these waters But I can't bring myself to swim
When I am drowning in this silence
Baby, let me go
Please, help me, baby
I'm not a doggy
I'm still a child
Didn't get the chance to
Feel
Get sad, buddy
I'm the sad king
You don't have to tell me to get sad
I was sad before I played
What I chose to do Alright Alright Alright I was sad before it played.
All right.
All right.
All right.
Let's get a little lightweight round of applause for what Adele is doing here.
All right.
I fucked with that shit.
I ain't really care for it as the first single.
I saw it the other day, and the video's kind of cool.
Video's up.
But as the first single, it ain't really hit like her other first singles hit. That's because she's giving you sad this time.
She's giving you the divorce album.
Her single's going to be some sad.
Now you got to call somebody that wrote that Mary shit.
You got to call them.
Adele's writing room is not thinking that.
What you mean?
I don't know.
Asshole.
But you get what I'm saying?
It just didn't hit like her first singles from the other projects.
I think it's going to work.
I like the song though.
It just wasn't a wham
to me.
But anything Adele
is going to work, right?
Farns?
Yeah, I guess.
The last album
that didn't work, worked.
That's true.
That's true.
Because it's Adele.
I didn't like the singles
off the last album that much
when they first dropped.
But the last album
didn't get the greatest.
You can't really escape them
and now you know them.
That album didn't get
the greatest reviews
when it dropped.
Yeah, if I recall.
And I'm no Adele expert.
Please don't get your
Adele news from me.
I'm sure it still sold
a bazillion copies.
I know she did a vid
with Mack Wilds.
I didn't know that.
I think that was the last album.
Yeah, that was a good look
for Mack.
Ice.
I know this ain't your bag.
She don't have any bodies or weapons.
I can't even shoot nothing.
She got shooters.
She ain't even ever shoot nothing.
She probably do got shooters.
She probably do got shooters.
She wouldn't dirty her hands.
They wouldn't even call her phone with this nonsense.
It's already handled.
Yeah.
What got handled?
Nothing, ma'am.
Nothing, ma'am.
Go to sleep.
What do you mean?
Go to sleep.
Nothing, ma'am.
Ice, you got
something for us no this ain't your bag ain't your wheelhouse sorry that's fine bring back
and i bring back people saying hey i don't know yeah oh yeah i'm cool that should be we should
make that hot again yeah that's real we don't hear that no more um or i was wrong that one too
i said ice is good with uh i try to be good with that. Ice is good.
I try to.
Ice is good with the wrongs.
No.
Is Ishard Dale expert?
No.
You got anything for us here?
I thought it was great, man.
I think it's a good song.
No, it's a good song.
I'm excited for the project, actually.
It didn't hit me as the first single off your new project.
I'm more excited for this off the first single than I was off the last one off the first single.
Really?
Yeah.
She's beautiful now.
Not that she wasn't beautiful before.
But this look
on her. You know how when
people lose a lot of weight, sometimes
I don't want to say this and y'all
not understand what I'm saying. She won't go through that though because she's filthy rich.
She looks great. She does.
But we understand
what you're saying.
I'm of the small community.
Hey.
You got the tippy toes over the leg.
I got enough to go around.
And the thought takes place uptown.
I grew up on a sidewalk While on the street talking hot
The whole New York
Oh my God
You know what that is Ice?
Yes
Oh no
I ain't saw Juice
Yeah like
Ice was in third grade
I saw Juice
But he saw Juice
He was in third grade
When Juice came out?
What year was Juice?
91 or 2 or something like that
Juice was early though
91?
What grade was you in?
that was early he was probably third grade
don't do that
don't age yourself
don't age yourself
that song was different bro
listen
I'm of the small
community of people
that believe
all of the Adele songs
sound exactly the same
oh yeah
I feel you
now I'm not gonna
ridicule her about it
because
if it ain't broke
don't break it and if that's your sound that's your sound and that's how you feel when you the
top of the food chain like she is like ariana grande is like when you peg your sound they get
the best architects in the world true to help deliver your sound so i think she works with
the same producer a lot of the time too.
Elmhurst or I think his name is.
I forgot what his name is. So this sounds big
and beautiful and
Adele-ish. Yeah. Oh, Greg
Kirsten. Yeah.
I'm probably not going to listen
to it. This is not like, yeah, I'm not
hitting the gym and putting on Adele or fucking
riding around in the whip with the windows down.
But where are you going to hit when you listen to this?
In your life, you, your life today.
I'd probably put this on if we was chilling in the backyard.
You put this on when it just came out and you want to hear it.
Parks.
Parks.
I like throwing on some sad sometimes.
I've been in your backyard party, dog.
You want me to tell you about all your wife's friends that come in?
Want me to tell you about your friends that come in?
Listen, it's not coming on at your kickback.
You can say it.
Nothing's wrong with that.
No, I'm not saying a kickback.
There's a bunch of people here, but sometimes we'll throw on some fucking Bob Dylan or something.
Get sad real quick.
And this would fall in that category.
That's when I had to the coach.
Will you put my jacket again
yo good seeing you
yo
sometimes it's nice
to have a nice sad music off
I like that
I want you on that part
we do that sometimes
at the end of the night
this ain't gonna go
to my sad playlist either
this is not
this is not our sad
this is not gonna go
on my sad
no it probably won't
now
and we back in a new
we've unearthed a new dope topic.
A sad off.
The range in sad.
There's a lot of different sads.
There's mad sads.
There is.
You're right.
This is just a deep level of sad with the chords and what's going on and her topics and her melodies.
This is a different level of sad.
I like my sad a little more peppy.
Moving mountains.
Aggressive.
Even Black Cloud I tried to get a little aggressive.
But I guess that's the same thing.
Same kind of sad.
Sort of.
Sam Smith stay with me versus everything else Sam Smith has tried to do.
I feel you.
And that's the difference. And that's the difference.
And that's the difference.
When you're at the top of the food chain
and when you miss
at the plate the next few times you get
up there, they won't give Sam Smith all
the sad hits to make him do what he gotta do.
They just make him go in the studio by himself.
We ain't heard another peep.
You said that before.
I'm gonna keep saying it.
Because if you listen to Stay with me and his first album and his first oh i think that's his first album the album would
stay with me crazy man listen i had sad sessions with the women in my life we just sat and listened
and trauma bonded when that was out me you and you had that conversation before. He ain't gave me no trauma bond since.
I like a little trauma bond.
Some people like bond
the cologne.
I like a little
That's me.
Trauma bonding could get sexy now.
That's good.
And they be having a fire.
That's where the trauma came from.
Sad girls?
That's where the trauma came from.
Shout out to the sad girls.
Shout out to Adele.
I'm going to listen to the album.
Your song sounds beautiful
But it's just
Not for me
Yeah
And I'm cool with that
There's nothing wrong
With saying
Yo
It's just not for me
More people should do that
It ain't for me
But I can appreciate
What it is
You know what I'm saying
I can say this
Sounds great
She's singing
The composition is beautiful
The video looks great
It's dope
It's dope
I'm not gonna
Like I said I'm not gonna play it every dope It's dope I'm not gonna Like I said
I'm not gonna play it every day
It's false advertising
Like Beyonce with single ladies
When she was happily married
Every picture we see
Of Adele in recent months
She looks like the happiest woman
In the world
Cause she fell in love
Now you gonna give me
An album of sad
But this could be
I might have been writing this
Last year
Yeah she could have been writing this
While she was going through
The sad shit
Dude got some money from her, right?
Did he?
Did he?
Yeah, that might be reason to be more sad.
She could have an alimony song on here.
Hell yeah.
Shout out to Adele, man.
I'm really happy that she's happy and in love and that she's coming.
Again, another major, huge, A-list superstar artist coming.
Fourth quarter.
It feels like the old days.
It feels like when music dropped on Tuesdays.
And we got summer.
We got breakup record after breakup record.
Listen.
Different types of breakup records.
I wish I heard this record before I spoke to Just last week, Justice
I just would have liked to have heard this record before I spoke to him
Adele dropping her record and release date
Six weeks Or four to six weeks.
Out.
Five weeks, somewhere like that.
Out.
That is an official single, and that's her rollout.
When Summer drops this song two weeks before her release date, is it the same?
Two weeks before her release date, is it the same?
Is it looked at as an official single and the label just is deciding to let it run through release versus five, six weeks leading up to?
That's my question.
I know I sound like a technical guy here.
No, no.
I'm trying to wrap it up. No, I'm following you.
Is this looked at, this song looked at as an official single versus one of the leaked tracks every week?
I forgot what they call them.
I know what you mean.
Hmm.
Because it's only two weeks away, her album.
I guess.
This feels like single.
It sounds like the thought behind it was single.
And the feature tells me single.
Yeah.
And the bop says single.
But two weeks ahead of time, who Who knows let's play a little bit
Shout out the summer walker shout the just
Shout out the JT as well. This is song is called X for a reason
Or proud and drop in November 5th, I think Now, I won't hate on this bop so far because I love black, boom like a 808.
I love Ghost Town DJs, my boo, and I think these all classics to me.
Like, I like the bop.
I see where they were trying to go here, right?
But today, you would have to reintroduce that bop Today With how R&B sounds
Unless you're in Miami
Unless you're in Miami
You would need to reintroduce this bop
So I like her trying to do that
I like it
I like that part
I'm just worried that all of that
And I said this last week
And I'll leave it alone
But if all the big R&B songstress superstars are going to put out music angry at men, then it's just going to be a long winter of trying to get people to come by the fireplace and eat marshmallows.
Remember when that used to work?
Come get some toasted marshmallows.
Oh, my God.
You said that line before?
Yeah. Toasted marshmallows? Toasted marshmallows. I, my God. You said that line before?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Toasted marshmallows?
Toasted marshmallows.
I used to have a fire pit in my yard.
Okay.
They used to love the fire pit.
I believe you, bro.
And hot chocolate works. You the man.
S'mores?
Come on.
Who doesn't like s'mores?
Ish, apparently.
I'm black.
Ish likes s'mores.
I'm black, man.
Look at why Ish is calling me.
It's debatable.
Look at why Ish is calling me.
Look at why Ish is calling me the man. Look at why Ish is calling me the man.
Because marshmallows work.
I know.
I would have never thought.
The simple date used to work.
And you know that.
I know.
I never had a girl say, yo, come on over my crib and let me marshmallow you out.
I never had that.
That's hard.
They never said that because they don't have a fire pit back there.
But when they come over and you introduce them to the fire pit and the marshmallows.
It's the vibe.
Nice little blanket.
Hudson.
Cool night.
Hudson.
The night is a fail
if she ain't ask you
to go get a little blanket.
Just a little nippy.
A little something.
Just a t-shirt.
No, not outside.
No, at the temperature
that I keep my house.
There's not a t-shirt in there.
You're going to need a blanket.
See, I used to do the opposite.
And outside at the fire pit
you get a little blanket
Africa
Africa
you crazy
you going to be in here for an hour
you going to ask for shorts
you not going to get a single room on tour
let me just tell you
You gonna be in a double room
Probably with me
I'm in a relationship
We gonna have to watch each other work
That's like when air mattresses was in the group
That bum ass stroke he was doing on that air mattress
That shit was so trash
This guy is a nutcase, bro.
Oh, man.
Bitch live together.
Yo, we gonna bring up some Patreon shit.
Yo, me and you.
Go ahead.
You don't remember when you did the bullshit?
I did man bullshit.
It was all bullshit.
It was a girl that I dealt with very, very briefly.
He had an argument with her on social media.
She said, yo, my man
was busting you down.
I know exactly
what you're talking about, too.
I wasn't
as involved as I am
today.
I had no business saying that.
And I owe that young lady an apology
if I ever say it.
What the fuck you talking about?
You threw me in the mix.
Who knew that you was my man?
But her.
See?
Look.
He knew.
Everybody knew.
Oh, then I'm sorry.
We wasn't even speaking.
People was calling my phone like, damn, nigga, Joe just threw you on Twitter.
I'm like, what?
What happened?
Yeah.
See?
Look, we not even talking. We just we not even talking I see the nigga
In the palace
He says yo man
Your palace
I gotta apologize
To you guys
I gotta apologize
To you cause
I just threw your business
Out there but
You was busting
Her ass on the green carpet
Was it a nice carpet at least
I don't know
Oh man
When I was 31 years old
It's alright bro
We can move along
I'm just saying
It's cool
We can move along bro
Let's just move on
Yeah yeah yeah
Well back to Summer
Back to Summer's album
Yo
And this record
Alright so back to Summer
Back to this
Can I tell y'all what I think?
I hear this
And then I hear what Justice said on the phone.
I'm worried.
About?
He said, everything you're thinking,
you're imagining,
this album's going to sound totally different.
Right?
Uh-huh.
And then I hear this.
I'm 100% worried.
He fine now.
You thinking that this is going to be sound?
If what I'm thinking,
Summer Walker to be giving us,
based off of the last project, you got her manager saying, if we're if what i'm thinking summer walker to be given us based off of the
last project you got her manager saying if you're thinking that it's going to be totally different
and now i hear this i am worried about this album i take like now going back what i said
oh i'm still looking forward to it i don't know this is your first single i'm definitely still
looking forward to it i'm'm worried. A thousand percent.
I'm still going to listen.
I'm going to buy it, of course, because I want to hear the album.
But Summer.
Those two things adding together.
Summer for me is undoubtedly her.
She's one of them.
She's her.
This album, I just need to see how much her she is without him.
Because London is really him when it comes to what he does.
He's good. That's true. he's good at what he does this song isn't a great indication of summer without
london you said it's not no gotcha for me but i'm a guy women might hear this that are going through
things with their ex and feel like this is pumping them up a little bit. This might be that energetic sad opposite of what Adele did.
It hit me as a summer song, though.
No pun intended.
Like, if she would have dropped this in, like, May-ish,
you know what I'm saying?
Like, this might have popped for the summer.
This too upbeat for this.
This is too, again.
But when she started like this,
if it stays here, which is what I thought would happen,
it was like, uh-oh, London, you in trouble.
Yeah, she getting ready to go.
She about to go.
But to go from this to...
Where is this song intended to play?
Besides in women's hearts.
Miami.
It's a summery song.
It does feel like it. I could have heard this on the radio in the summer.
Yeah, it feels outside-y.
Yo, bitch, yo.
Yeah, I could have heard that in the summer.
Girls walking around with heels and shorts.
Yeah.
Now look how this starts. Real mellow, and then the beat comes in.
Same way.
And I remember what this song did.
Listen to what this song is about. say that I sped it up
just to see
what he does
to the bottom
we might be snitching
we might be snitching.
We might be snitching.
I'm speculating here.
I don't know the thought process behind this.
But if this Ghost Town shit was ever a thought to have like this kind of bop,
they should have sped this beat up and now not wrote this song this way.
That's my opinion.
Because this is more fun. Speeding it up is a little more fun for me maybe not that fast
I can see what you're to grow on me, but...
This ain't need to do no growing.
This was it.
The kids don't know.
When this came out, that was it.
That will never not be fire.
That will never not be fire That will never not be fire
I'm holding
I'm reserving judgment
On Summer's project
Maybe this will sound better
In flow of the project
And I do still think
She's gonna have an amazing project
Cause she's her
This song though
Not for me
And I'm not the target audience
With it
I concur I would need to hear from the women This song, no, not for me, and I'm not the target audience with it.
I concur.
I would need to hear from the women that are going to sing along with this.
Yo, you're my ex for a reason.
Maybe they're empowered.
I get all that.
Again, like I said, take that, add it to the conversation with her manager telling us that whatever you expected, it's not going to be none of that.
All right. I see this is is gonna be a different album now i hate go ahead this is the first single it's track two so if this is where you're going might be setting the pace yeah but then you know
track two says a lot about your album i normally skip to track two to see where you're taking me
but you know what albums though nowadays, when you
get halfway down, they pivot.
Sometimes.
They start going somewhere else.
I don't think the whole album.
With these long albums,
they just throw some bullshit halfway through.
That's really what happens
now. Well,
not to be ignorant
because I'm not.
I'm evolved now
but this song is also another example
of what happens on the flip side
of X for a reason
because sometimes the girl is saying you my X for a reason
but the guy is saying it at the same time
the girl's version
never explores that
if I'm London
then yeah.
You are my ex.
I'm your ex for a reason.
A reason.
This is a part of that reason.
And
now I'm just going to have fun
watching.
I would like to see Summer
get the last laugh in that one.
I'm a feminist.
I was just about to ask you why.
Because London's that dude already.
She is too.
So is she?
No, she's not.
No, she's not.
How isn't she?
She's in the tops.
Okay.
Let me explain myself.
She's her.
But that's because she's her creatively and we all know it. She's had one successful
album. She just got here. She's new on the block.
London's business
and businesses are
established if nobody ever says
his name again. His talent
is etched. His phone will never
not ring. I agree with that. There.
They've been slandering him for fucking
the last year and a half and
Phone's still ringing story not a thing
and i fuck with london but i'd like summer i'd like summers and as a music fan as a music fan
you don't want to hear summer's album and say damn i wish london was there you want to hear
summer's album and think damn we get we get five to ten more years of this amazingness?
We don't want to think that she has to lean on somebody, and we don't feel like that right now.
No.
Even with this song, we don't feel like that.
And I don't want us to leave this album feeling like that.
So I hope that she performs.
And I want to see her perform.
I want to see her show.
Good point.
JT was an interesting feature choice, but I get it.
For this bop?
Yeah.
And for this message.
And for this message.
No, no, it makes sense.
No, it makes sense.
It makes all the sense in the world.
It makes sense, man.
Listen, we two weeks away.
I can't wait.
I can't wait.
Same.
That's what I got.
That's what I got for her.
Same.
At midnight when music was released
i was searching for the summer song and i couldn't find there was hiccups with that and uh
thug shit i couldn't i couldn't get until this morning i also didn't see the young thug project
in the new releases yeah i only knew about it because all the southern people i follow on instagram
instagrammed it and that makes me really angry that music drops and you can have no idea
you know what i'm thinking is happening joe because i i imagine small artists but look
i saw it when we were trying to small i said imagine what they're going to listen i saw it
when i was trying to purchase trying to purchase the Thug album.
I think they focus in so much more on streaming.
They are.
They don't give a fuck what's going on in the iTunes store.
It's true.
Yeah.
It's true.
You go in the iTunes.
Because we buy our music.
So we go in the iTunes store.
We're dinosaurs.
I do boom.
I stream first, and then I purchase.
And download.
So in there, it's just Wild Wild West, man.
Good luck.
Go find it.
You type Thug Name.
It should be the first thing at the top.
Yeah.
No, it's not.
You scroll all the way down.
You still can't find it.
You actually have to type his name and the project name.
And then it'll pop up.
And it pops up at like number six.
Damn.
Which is nuts.
That's a lot to have to look for one of your
previous artists in hip-hop hell yeah however we're here young thugs album has dropped i haven't heard
it yet i've only heard the songs that parks has played since i've been here and wow this shit is
incredible man wow it's young thug unplugged first of all there's like half of it is acoustic records
there's drums alone like maybe five songs.
I love that.
I'm so phony.
I'm phony because I love that from him.
I hate it from most people.
Yeah.
He different.
Nah, I heard about six, seven songs.
That shit is crazy.
He makes his voice an instrument.
And I think that's where he can do the acoustic thing and weave in and out with the beat.
He just different. Thug can do shit that a lot weave in and out with the beat. He's just different.
Thug can do shit that a lot of artists can't do on a record.
That shit Vars was playing.
Man.
Man.
Me too, though. I wish that keeping it real really was contagious Cause I be showing love always made with fashion
But that's what's in my heart, I can never change it
I just wish that these were reciprocated
I told my lawyer, change the situation
Told the judge that I was always faking
But I know it's in my heart and I feel it baking
To the Lego on my boys, that would be amazing
Tryna blink out every time I'm in the different spaces
Bought that same little Ferrari and told him keep it basic
Put up on them same little boys told him to get the racing
She don't even know what it is I feel like the first time I heard him was with Wayne But I could be wrong about that First time I heard him Was with Gucci I was about to say
I thought
Up under Gucci camp
I think
Yep that's what it is
It was Gucci
Because of Gucci
I think he a gambler
I read some shit
Or I saw some shit
Where they said that
Him and Gucci
Be gambling all the time
And losing hundreds
Of thousands of dollars
I think that's Gucci's man
Yeah it says here
He put out three mixtapes
And then caught the attention of Gucci.
Okay.
The A&R to the streets.
And signed them.
Gucci dropped something this week, too, I think.
Yes, he did.
So, Icy Boyz.
We'll get to that.
Okay.
This dog album's great, man.
I only ask because when you find people, and I'm in music geek mode.
Sorry.
When you find people, you project.
So, you kind of almost got to envision what they're going to sound like
after they're developed after you that they learn when you put them through whatever rap boot camp
you're putting them through or artistry boot camp this project just on this song alone yeah sounds
like full culmination of whatever somebody saw ages ago. And we saw
a little bit of that, and I'm speaking
on, what's the album where he had
the lavender dress on that I thought
was so beautiful? Jeffrey. Jeffrey album.
That album.
That album was amazing.
Yeah, it was. Every song.
This right here. This one is sneaking up
though. I'm not the, I'm a
big Young Thug fan, but not where I know his discography super deep.
But this album is up there to me.
Turn that back on.
I really only be knowing the popular songs, but that shit you.
Turn that back on. I don't pass the torch I pour syrup when I'm hoarse I whore Out and I wreck a core I took my string and I remade the song
I wish that keeping it real really was contagious
Cause I be showing love always make me face you
But that's what's in my heart I can never change it
I just wish that things were reciprocated
They always told me I be going places
Now I'm just surrounded by these different faces
But all of this
comes with hatred.
I wish they'd keep it in real.
But I count this
in the
big acts that are dropping
that shit.
He one of them.
He didn't take off. He dropped
last year in 2019
too, I believe.
The album in a deluxe.
He didn't really take much time off.
My perception of Young Thug, I just don't expect him to not drop when big acts are dropping.
And none of the big acts drop without calling his phone.
I just know how they feel about him.
He's revered.
As he should be.
And this album
kinda is saying why
I saw a little baby post
on Instagram
yo
this is the one
this is the dude
this is
I'm not me
without him
and it's just good
to see that
from a young
Atlanta lineage
paying it forward
to like
where they got it from
mhm
even look at this cover
even look at the
Young Thug album
cover
cover's crazy like this dude is Even look at the Young Thug album cover. Cover's crazy.
Like, this dude is on some...
What the hell is that?
Thug is different.
Thug is really art.
Yo, to put that...
He does what his music is.
This album is making me
want to go somewhere this weekend.
Nah, look, as a young kid,
to put that as an album cover,
that just speaks about who he is.
I don't know how old he is. I don't know how old he is i don't
know how he is i don't think he old probably he's 27 fam for 30 he's 30 for a 30 year old 35 year
old to have that as an album cover it speaks volumes about how they think you know what i'm
saying that's dope it's tough in that in that 30 31 32 33 year, 33-year-old bracket of rap.
Like, that's where they at.
It's killers that's 31, 32, 33 around there.
I'd hate to have to deal with them.
That late 20s, early 30s?
Like, those are the veterans.
Boy, that's a scary thing for a new act coming in.
Like, when I was a new act coming in,
our vets was, was like real vets.
So we could get away with saying, hey, get these old
niggas the fuck out of here and make some room
for the new blood. You can't say that
today. There's a difference too, Joe.
The vets today fuck with the
young niggas. See, our
vets didn't. There was a
big divide. That age
divide. Like,
Doug and all of them, they fuck with the youngest coming up
no that's true they reach back and put them on is what what our vets didn't do that's valid it's a
good point they put on their people and that was it like if you weren't there if you was with them
that's it yeah i think i think the money i think the social media i think all of that shit also
plays a part probably because again like with social media it
connects people these niggas can be from atlanta and literally be connected to some niggas from la
or from new york whereas back in the day when you drop a la artist and a new york artist if y'all
never linked up or went on tour or something the odds of y'all ever meeting was real slim that's
valid or for you just to get bi-coastal exposure. Like, it was hard.
Now with the internet,
you could be a New York
or East Coast artist
and drop in L.A.
at the same time.
You ain't have to work your way
across the country
to get popularity or fame.
Also, probably some of the capital
that is now in the game
that wasn't there before.
True, true, true.
Back in the day,
I get it from the older heads.
They might have felt like
hoarding all the money.
Yeah.
Hey, we here, we know where the money's coming from.
We had to bust our ass.
It's just right, though, too, because to get a feature back in the day, you had to fly
somewhere with reels and record that shit and ship shit around.
Now you can just email shit.
Like, Pac, the album that never came out with the East Coast, that was a big deal at the
time.
And Biggie getting Bone in them on the album was a big deal. That was a big deal at the time. And Biggie getting Young Thug, getting Bone and them on the album was a big deal.
That was a big deal.
Hov getting UGK on Big Pimpin' was a big deal.
Too short.
Too short.
All I share is a big deal.
Yeah.
Because it was physically more difficult to have that happen.
But I mean, even that though, they were dealing with acts in their age range.
They wasn't going back to the younger acts.
True.
True.
That's what I'm saying.
But it still was hard to reach the people.
I agree.
You know what I'm saying?
I agree.
But I'm just saying that they still, back then it was like the younger ones hated the
older ones and vice versa.
I think they looked at them like competition.
Now it's enough money in the game.
Exactly.
For everybody to get to.
And now they're looking at it as, I want to be the one to put the next nigga on.
True.
There wasn't much of that before.
I see people criticize
Drake for doing a record with anybody
who's up and coming that's popping. Wayne too.
Wayne do a feature with anybody.
He don't really give a fuck. Drake caught
hell for that. But
I think that's dope. I'm the biggest artist
in the game. This little local
young nigga right here got something bubbling.
I'm going to reach out to you. You're not my competition.
I remember when I was a young bubbling artist and i would have starved or given my right hand to get
jay-z on my album if you're drake yeah right i remember he was on you for a feature when he was
up and coming like he used to like you oh you know what i'm saying so again when you up and coming
sometimes you forget when you were up and coming once you made it. And what it would have been to your career to get whoever was the premier artist on your shit.
Right.
You get what I'm saying?
There's also some trauma or ego that comes in with that, too.
I did it by myself.
I had to work my ass off.
That's true.
A lot of that.
You know what I mean?
It's a lot of that.
While you're on that, I want somebody at some point got to tell me what happened with the Drake and Benny the Butcher song.
Want to hear it? That's a good question.
No, I've heard it.
I got it.
When you say what happened, what do you mean, though?
That was officially released.
Yeah, I'm curious where that's going to end up.
Might be a money bag.
I don't know if it ends up anywhere now.
Or they're working on something.
One or the other, whoever's project it's going out on.
Not the way we have heard this thing.
We've heard this thing.
It got leaked.
Benny's part got leaked
yeah
he started playing it
places and at shows
that says that it's
probably not coming out
with Drake
maybe true
yeah
he was tucking it
he was holding it
he was playing people
behind the scenes
so now it's like
and that's interesting to me
that's interesting
but it could be just like
he did the project
with Hit-Boy
so maybe Hit-Boy didn't do that beat.
So he's just waiting for the next solo album type of thing.
Yeah, that's not a record you just want to throw away.
Properly.
So he could be waiting for that right ideal situation to go with that.
Just questions I've pondered that I'd like to know the answer to at some point.
Back to Thug, though.
Listen, I'm going to live with this this weekend because this sounds phenomenal great great features sounds
great he's got drake and travis he's got the group fun that was fun he got fun on there look at fun
like that's how acoustic he went with it he got fun on it you know i'm saying but even look at
thugs features right like look at the features on this it's just always reads right even though i'd
hate to be it's don't don't seem like you could pop in Atlanta
if you got a beef with Young Thug or Future
that would be troubling for me
I take it a step further
you can't pop with Thug
by himself
you can't pop with Future
go up higher
you can't pop in Atlanta if you got a beef with Gucci
Gucci that's how the umbrella goes go up higher baby go up higher you can't pop in Atlanta if you got a beef with Gucci Gucci
that's the
that's where
that's how the umbrella goes
and that's where it goes back
to what I've been saying about
why my favorite rapper
has a hard time
what are they on tour now
they made
they made friends
I'm talking about
when he was putting projects out
oh yeah yeah
that was tough
I can't go get
none of these hot
Atlanta niggas
Atlanta niggas
other than T.I.
because they under
there the only Atlanta features I can get is T.I. hot Atlanta niggas because they under there
the only Atlanta features
I can get
is Tia
Tia and 2 Chainz
shout to Gucci
I need a list of the people
that Gucci found
I'll be honest
that's under his umbrella
that he found
it's deep
it's deep
it's deep
it's deep
no I'm sure
you have to credit him
for names that people
forget to credit him with like
amigos i'm just giving you don't want them out there nikki minaj
goes to gucci mad producers yes all your producers all your producers nikki start
gucci's name pops up yes that's what i'm saying like a lot of producers gucci is the i i've said for a lot a long time gucci's the best a&r hip-hop
and has been for years his ear and what he sees in talent when he picks produced a decade worth
of probably more than that more than that more than that i'm just i'm just always impressed
with how the south produces a master p or a Baby and Slim or some,
or P,
or just,
they always have this mind,
or Gucci,
or even the position Thug plays
for the younger.
They just always have a mind
that sets up
many, many others
for a long time to come.
I think that's a hustle thing.
Me too. i think these
niggas be street niggas and they already have the inbred hustle and they just change the the the
product and and what gucci says what thug says and the artists under them say they not trying
to rob nobody that counts when they put you on i'm putting you on so you can make money
not so that genuinely and genuinely trying
to help you correct some kids that gucci be finding where he'll put it put it on his instagram
yo here's a chain or here's a whatever he does they be so ecstatic like the look on their face
is so priceless like i'd be feeling it through the screen like you remember that feeling as a young
act well if you're blessed enough to get it we're one of the ogs is just you
know my attention is on you now right again i'm gonna put my arm around you that's the new the
new phrase now i'm gonna put my arm around you and i'm gonna see to it that you pop that you
succeed and look at his track record so look so it's like yes i'm who does that in new york nobody
no not a soul and that's the problem. Imagine when you was up and coming.
And you was nice.
Right?
People saw your niceness.
I'm sure.
They were threatened by it.
Imagine Jay-Z comes to you after Pump It Up drops and you wanted him on a remix and says,
Yo, I'm going to see to it that you get busy.
That you get to a certain level.
You're a threat to me.
Bro, do you know what you would have felt like inside?
But even then, you name a Jay-Z.
He would be the name.
We need somebody that's not.
He's the equivalent to them back then.
Mm-hmm.
You talking Jay-Z 20 years ago, Joe.
Whoever.
No, no, I understand.
I'm just highlighting the distinction because today it needs to be made.
Yo Gotti is an act.
However, he's that executive dude. Drama's an act. However, he's that executive dude drama is an act however he's that executive
dude gucci's an act like so forth and so on so today that multitasking like is like a regular
thing back then hove caught a lot of flack for being the rapper and trying to be yeah like mad ass beef with him it ain't just me but
mad ass beef with his way
of doing but it's only cause
he was a rapper like whatever beans
had to say LLDMX
me woo
mob deep whatever anybody had to
say it's just cause he was rapping too I agree
but he paved the way for that
Puff paved the way
for that you get what paved the way for that.
You get what I'm saying?
Like, without no Jay-Z, potentially, I'm just saying potentially, you might never see that.
New York needs some more of these.
We need one of them.
We need a guy who's not trying to be the guy himself, but has a perfect blueprint.
Or be the guy.
You could be the guy. Let other people come along and be the guy, too.
The problem is, and we spoke on this on the last part, you were blaming a lot of it on
the gun laws and et cetera.
No, I just made a point.
I wasn't blaming.
Well, okay.
Not blaming.
It's a fact.
It was just theory.
It is.
That was a good point.
But the other part was down here, these guys can, you're not a threat.
Like New York was so competition based that anything moving is a threat.
Down South wasn't the same so cats was clicking up and linking up with no problem i just think that's a newer thing too
we're talking 20 years ago i'm talking 20 years ago i know 20 years ago was 2001 ish
good point good point
who was really
popping popping
in Atlanta
20 years ago
CNN
had to be like
JDM
then I'll get mad
Outkast
and Goody Mob
yeah Goody Mob
Outkast
JD
Luda was about
to pop
Luda was coming
yeah but
these young niggas
right here
wasn't
but no
but Gucci was
on his
grind mixtape like you know what I'm saying I built my name in the streets These young niggas right here wasn't. No, but Gucci was on his grind. On his run.
Mixtape.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
I built my name in the streets.
I was doing that.
I might not have popped nationally.
You know, T.I. didn't pop nationally to maybe 03, 04.
But they was doing their thing on the mixtape circuit in the streets.
So that's what happens.
You build up and then you start linking with other cats like yo
you shit gucci's responsible for gz on the low they was them south niggas was making it hard
for me to do something when i first got the def jam it was ti urban legend it was it was gz man
gzt i can see why i was so angry like the shit I had to go against like man
you trying to fucking
put a seller song
while the snowman t-shirt
is out everywhere
not happening
no nigga
we don't want to hear
that shit
you talking about
and then what
oh man
and at the same time
Lil Jon and them
was running
like come on
it was true
yeah
nah they made
they
they made they They made they
Yeah
They forced
They kicked the door in
They forced they way in the door
Exactly
They forced
They earned that
They earned it
They earned it
Shit back then
I had to deal with
What Jody Meeks
Was fitting to do
Like
Not Jody Meeks
That's a basketball player
What's my man
From Boys in the Hood
Jody Breeze
Jody fucking Breeze
I had to deal with
What he was about to do Exactly Yo Jody Breeze He's the fucking Breeze. I had to deal with what he was about to do.
Exactly.
Jody Breeze.
He's the one.
He's coming.
He's coming.
He's got something.
No, I don't want to hear this shit.
He's stressing me out with these dope Southern niggas.
I remember.
This Young Thug album, I haven't heard it, so I don't have analysis.
I am going to go somewhere this weekend because this sounds like that's the vibe I need to be in.
And then I'm going to get mad if I don't hear it.
What happened to DJs playing new shit?
Here.
Keep popping up new shit, new shit.
Think the whole Harlem world's on some clue shit.
We don't get that no more, but whatever.
It's cool.
Young Thug, salute.
Salute and congratulations.
Yeah, you did this right out.
For real, you did.
From what I've heard, you did this, and I can't wait to dive into this.
What else happened in music?
Mac Miller, they re-released Faces, put it on stream.
They did.
He's also on Young Thug's album.
I thought that was dope.
Yeah.
See what I mean?
Yeah, he just wrote on his album.
Young Thug's projects give me thoughtfulness
I don't have to
I didn't have to hear this
to just see where the thought
went into this
that's an artist
that's why
musical
that's what I'm saying
Young Thug is an artist
like he puts his
passion into this shit
I'm not just putting out
I'm not just calling
all you niggas
that I know I could get
on the phone
and say yo
come on we gonna do this
and put this out
no no no no
every aspect of this
is thought out
and perfected
and that's why
it sounds like this
that's why we all
sitting over here like
yo this shit is amazing
cause a true artist
put they all into this album
and when artists do this
like when the big acts
do that
like
add thoughtfulness
and cohesion and like really put their best foot forward,
I'd be so happy that no other albums drop.
When one or two albums drop that hold it down for the genre, I'm okay.
I'm all right.
So I'll get to this.
And rest in peace, Mac Miller, always.
Always.
Always.
Nothing else musically.
Gucci, I didn't have a... Gucci, Graff, and DJ Shay, rest in peace. Dropped the tape. I didn't listen to it yet. Rest in peace, Mac Miller. Always. Always. Nothing else musically. Gucci, I haven't heard.
Gucci, Graff, and DJ Shea.
Rest in peace.
Dropped the tape.
I haven't listened to it yet.
Rest in peace, Shea.
Yeah.
I haven't heard it yet.
Shout out to Graff.
Friend of the show, of course.
No doubt.
Anything on R&B?
Let me see what I was doing.
Rock Marcy did a single with Nicholas Craven that produced all of Ransom's last projects.
It's dope.
Yeah, that's probably the most I had.
Yeah, me too.
For the week.
Like I said,
it was a little bit quiet.
Dirk dropped a new single.
Oh yeah, Dirk dropped a single.
I immediately listened to it
and wanted to cut
Grand Theft Auto on
so I could shoot.
There's a video for it too.
That's what happened
because that's the only
shooting I'm getting off.
But I just need,
I just had that urge.
I got to shoot some shit.
Like I need the big gun
going GTA and I just had to get some shots off. But yeah. Nah, he shoot some shit. Like, I need the big gun. Go on GTA.
And I had to get some shots off.
But yeah.
No, he be rapping too.
Yeah, he is.
And it's called Piss Me Off.
And I was telling the fellas, somebody or something has pissed him off.
I mean, the home invasion.
I can go.
But I mean.
He talked about it in the song.
Yeah, yeah.
But I think it's a little bit more than that.
Because I'm going from the remix verse i mean the uh the verse on the nardo wick um who wants smoke remix
and there he's a little aggravated at something and then in here it sounds like i don't know if
it's people who don't know what the hell they talk about in his comments like shit is starting
you can tell from these just those two verses which are the last two verses
that uh he put out something's like ticking him off and he's kind of lashing out on here
so leave that man alone please rappers singers Actors, actresses, influencers, tastemakers, gamers, podcasters, hosts.
This is my blanket PSA to all of you.
Let's make it to the end of the year.
We too close right now.
It is October.
I don't think I can handle one of y'all leaving this year.
All of you are in my prayers.
I love every one of y'all.
And I identify with what we have to go through to make ends meet out here.
And all the shit that we against both in music and outside of music just existing here.
Please.
I won't minimize this by saying head on a swivel because that's ground level shit to just look around.
That's ground level shit to just look around.
Just use caution and make the best decisions that you can, at least so we all could get to the new year together.
End quote from Joe.
That's a good one.
End quote from Joe, because that's important.
It's a shame that we got to even have that. The news could tell you what's going on.
Like when mom's got to pull guns out, like when mom's gotta pull guns out when girlfriend's gotta

newspaper speaking of the newspaper real quick go get my bacon egg and cheese i walk out i look at
the front page of the daily news and it's I buy it, and we'll talk about it real quick.
But the Daily News is $3.
Damn.
Shit.
I know people don't really buy print, so I'll just throw that out, and we'll keep it moving.
But I used to buy those.
You haven't bought a newspaper in a while.
I went from $0.25 to $0.50, $0.75, $1.25.
But $3?
I missed the jump
from a buck 50
to three dollars
but moving on
cover the daily news

and
that's that
you see this Shoots and Wounds Snapchat. And that's that. You see this?
Shoots and Wounds Snapchat rival.
Well, that's why I brought it up.
Well, that's why I brought it up.
Because back to adult brain and children issues, right?
I'll bring this full circle from where we started.
We was talking about youth athletics
and barbers
and single parents
and we was joking around
and shit like that.
But on the flip side of that
I got little brothers.
I got little brothers.
They're from the Bronx.
They run around.
They play.
And apparently
on these video games
and on these socials
we adults
I ain't thinking about you getting into it with another little kid on Snapchat or the video game.
And if you an adult and you not checking and you don't even know that they chatting in them headphones like that, threatening y'all, I'll kill you, nigga, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
So be it.
And shit, video games, you might think that's part of the game or something.
Yeah, but my dad.
Which it probably is.
Shit talking is part of sports. No, but my dad... Which it probably is. Shit talking is part of sports, but...
No, but...
No, fuck that.
Shit talking, yes.
But at 13, you don't even know how to shit talk.
You don't even know what it could result.
I disagree with that.
You don't know what it could result in.
No, not what it...
They know how...
Listen, I'm a gamer.
I'm only talking about what it results in.
Don't give me...
Okay, okay, okay.
Maybe in today's society, it results in different shit than when we was 13.
Evidently.
Yeah.
And that's where I'm at.
I agree with that.
So, if my dad calls and says, yo, your brothers is fucking, your brothers is on the video game, setting up fights, and running over here to go actually fight the dude.
Like, we've been there before.
But today, everything's a little more dangerous because you don't know what's gangtory and what's not
gang territory geographically you don't even know what's going on in the streets you claim to be
yours i'm not talking about 13 year olds but just people period i tell a story about when i was
driving driving around my neighborhood and i made a left and a left when to drop somebody off union
see them cops pull that little binge right. I ain't do a thing.
Yo, what happened?
Gang territory.
That's it.
The end.
You don't need a reason now.
I'm pulling it over.
Hey, when we used to go on our little dates,

It's going to take you
through the whole hood.

Sometimes it be
one two in the morning.
You're a little nice car.

geographical problem now.
You don't have to do
nothing wrong.
The cops over there

24-7 people up.
We looking for the cars

You do shit like this
and you got to worry
about a 13-year-old kid
shooting innocent bystanders.
I'm like,
this is a mess.
This is a fucking mess.
Nah, it's just no more fighting.
How do you go through this
as a parent?
There's no more fighting.
I got to go turn my kid in.
Now he got an attempted
murder charge at 13 years old.
Because somebody was
bullying me or because he
wanted to prove a point or because Snapchat. Like Snapchat?
TikTok?
We got to start making fighting cool again.
I'm going to kill you over TikTok?
Even that though. You can't fight.
Somebody lose the fight. That ain't it.
I would be scared of that
part today of winning
the fight. Yeah, you win the fight.
You damn near better off taking a L.
That's crazy.
Last fight I had, I won.
His network was bigger than mine though.
So now, who wins?
Exactly. Who wins
in the aftermath of this? Right.
Who makes the first phone call? It was me.
Yeah!
The other night, man.
Yeah. I was beside myself, man. Yeah.
I was beside myself, man.
We should just let bygones be.
Come on.
Come on.
We can move on.
It just pains me to see.
I'm seeing, I bring this up to say, let's all make it to the end of the year.
I'm seeing more and more stories where it's the entertainers, the rappers, it's kids, it's parents.
We going through it out here.
We going through it out here.
I'm not depressing nobody.
Let's just keep it pushing what else we got block boy jb this must be important
you put on the screen i love making music but i'm just finna give up and be done it's just some of
the shit that be going on is not for me i can't drop no music i can do 50 songs today and still
couldn't drop nothing feel like they waiting on me to die or something. If a nigga ever tell you I ain't working, that shit's cap.
Now, I do believe that some of them are waiting for some of us to die.
I stand by that.
But I say that.
I say that often.
Outside of that, I'm not too familiar with Block Boy JB.
He's under Gotti.
He's over there.
Oh, he in a good system.
CMG.
He in a good system.
Yeah.
Well, that could be the problem. Could's over there. Oh, he's in a good system. CMG. He's in a good system. Yeah. Well, that could be the problem.
Could be something personal.
If you're in a good system,
it's not your time.
I don't care if you're making 50 songs a day.
Do you have those songs
I'm looking for?
Right. Possible.
It's possible. That could definitely be it.
It could be. If you got a whole
stable full of people that are making hits, then you might just have to wait.
Not just that.
Now you're going public on your shit.
Well, that's like.
Shit might get pushed back even further.
That might not help the situation at all.
And it could just be, nigga, you got to wait your turn.
Right.
I'm sorry.
Like, right now, this is what we doing.
I got a well-oiled machine here.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, we on fire. We see the same thing happen, not for now, this is what we doing. I got a well-oiled machine here. Mm-hmm. Yeah, we on fire.
We see the same thing happen, not for nothing, with TDE.
Yeah.
We've seen Absol come out and say, yo, I want to drop.
Yo, they won't let me drop.
They won't let me drop.
And then Punch will say, yo, it's not your turn.
Mm-hmm.
You've seen it so much with them that they turned it into a marketing campaign.
Yeah.
Now, when SZA going to be doing that shit, I'll be like, yo, stop faking.
SZA be like, I want to drop right now.
They won't let me.
I'm retiring.
They won't.
Man, stop.
But it's coming from a real place because that really happened.
Yeah, it happened.
But again, it's, you know, when you have that.
I remember SZA wanted to drop.
Bro, you see it everywhere.
You see it in sports.
You see it in music.
You see it.
Y'all little receiver.
The one that kicked our ass the other day.
Who?
The little nigga from the Giants.
The new nigga.
Tooney?
Threw the punch.
Tooney.
He been bitching all year.
Yeah.
And he's nice.
Oh, he went crazy the other day?
The rookie?
Yeah, damn near 200 yards on Dallas.
The rookie?
Yes.
And he got thrown out the game and damn near had 200 yards.
Oh, he might be on a waiver.
That was wild, though.
Oh, no, he's picked up already.
Anyway.
Oh, you picked him up?
Did I?
But, um. No, he threw a punch at a nigga with a helmet on.
Yeah, I always thought that's funny.
Enough wasn't really talked about that.
No, but watch that.
It was like, you got to be different.
It happens like once a year, someone throws a punch at someone.
But I mean, you should be thankful that you did not connect.
It's just going to hurt you.
But no, he was bitching all year.
And he's nice.
He's nice.
But the three niggas you behind are nice.
You a rookie.
You got to wait your turn.
And they know the playbook like the back of their hand.
Somebody gets hurt, then you come out and go nuts.
I'm going to tell you why that's different.
Because we losing.
So?
No, but I'm saying if we're doing.
We're not at the worst take part of the pod.
No, I'm just saying.
No, no, no, no, no.
I'm going to equate it to this.
But I'm saying if what you said, what we're doing, you're down the line worst take part of the pod no i'm just no no no no i'm going to quit into this but i'm saying if if what you said what we're doing you know you
you're down the line you're number four etc what we doing ain't winning so maybe you do need to
switch up yo get me involved some more now hold on now with this here with block boy jb
goddy's camp is winning. Big winning.
Big winning.
So for you to be complaining,
and they telling you,
like let's say they telling you,
yo, you got to play your role.
It's not you right now.
This is what we got going,
and we're winning.
We saw that at QC too.
Yeah, we've seen this.
Lil Baby named his album My Turn for a reason.
It's my turn now.
I've been sitting here in the cut.
There you go.
It was definitely his turn.
It was.
And he turned out.
Yeah.
And ran with it.
He gave 200 yards too.
And a couple touchdowns.
No,
he was right
because somebody else
at that time
thought it was their turn.
They went out of place.
Hey,
you got to pick that card back up.
Ain't your goal yet.
Yeah,
no,
no.
You don't know the suit. He won that boat. Hey, he calls the suit. He cutting yet. Yeah, no, no. You don't know the suit.
He won that boat.
Hey, he calls the suit.
He cutting spades.
Yeah, yeah, he's cutting everything.
That nigga cutting spades.
He is too suited out, this bitch.
So moving on, moving on.
On to Kyrie Irving.
For those of you that don't know,
the Nets announced their decision
to not have Kyrie Irving participate in team anything.
You cannot travel. You cannot practice. in team anything. You cannot travel.
You cannot practice.
You cannot play.
You cannot participate, which caused an uproar from the sports world, in particular Stephen A. Smith.
Stephen A. Smith and J. Will had a nice exchange on air about how if he was hurting his team, if he was being selfish,
if blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And I think Steve and they said,
called him stupid or said that this was stupid
or just associated the word stupid
with the likeness of Kyrie Irving.
And boy, did that get some pushback
from the sports community?
So wait, what was that?
I didn't see this, new exchange what was that which one
the one with jay will no i saw that the new exchange that's from yes oh about kairi's live
i didn't see that either no no i saw that i'm talking about there's been more reactions
a lot of people have responded to Stephen A's rant about this.
And I guess the conversation, it's not really a vaccine conversation.
Not really, no.
It's not.
It's a choice conversation.
It's just about choice, yeah.
It's about personal choice.
So if you have, it could be anything.
Because again, we definitely don't want to turn this into another vaccine conversation.
Yeah, no, it's the weekend.
Kyrie Irving is a man.
He's a father. He's a husband.
He's whatever the case may be.
If he does not want
to do something that he thinks
could potentially be harmful
to his body long term, that is
his right. It doesn't matter what
he thinks if it's potentially harmful.
We can leave it at just
his thoughts. At what he wants to do or not.
His discretion. Even he said
I'm not pro or anti.
I just... I don't know yet.
I'm getting more... I want to
take my time and figure this out.
It's his right. And that is his right.
It's his right. For himself
and his family. Yeah.
Now does he let the team down? Maybe, but who cares?
It's his life. Let's play the Kyrie clip for some of the people down maybe but who cares it's his it's his
life let's play let's play the kairi clip for some of the people that may as well so we'll just play
we're not gonna play the whole thing first things first a little bit uh this isn't about me and it's
not about me dispelling uh you know what's being said about me particularly or for anybody it's
just saying you know i'm standing with all those that uh you know believe in what's right and are
doing what's right for
themselves. Everybody has a personal choice with their lives. Everybody has a right to feel a
certain type of way. Everybody's entitled to their own opinions. Everybody's entitled to do what they
feel is best for themselves. And putting me as a hero or painting me as a villain sort of say or going against the vaccine mandates like that wasn't that wasn't my intent at all.
And to be sitting in this seat here and seeing, you know, the way that this is dividing our world up, you know, being vaccinated or being unvaccinated.
You know, it's just sad to see. It's creating a lot of division, a lot of confusion.
to see. It's creating a lot of division, a lot of confusion, a lot of people saying things that are untrue. We're not given space for each other to speak. You got doctors out here working hard,
physicians out here working hard, and everybody's trying to do what's best for them and their
families, which I respect. And I'm always going to put that first. Everybody out there is not
And I'm always going to put that first.
All right.
Everybody out there is not listening to me or making this about me or painting this picture like, yo, I'm the voice of reason, so you should do this.
Nah.
It's just about staying real and staying true to who you are and making the choice for you what's best.
Everybody has their own family.
Everybody has their own tribe.
Everybody has their own issues or traumas that they're dealing with, trying to heal from. And I trying to support as best i can pause it pause it pause it let the i'm a i'm a
hooper can you can you pause it yeah let's let the applause go one two i mean he's long-winded
right now so we're gonna it's a lot it's 20 minutes long but he go he goes into how just
use logic think for yourself think for your family this is not just about us it's
about our kids our lineage uh our legacy uh he goes into how who he is uh for him is bigger than
his career it's bigger than me just being an athlete but he also goes into his love for the
game and how hey y'all don't think i'm real i'm i'm just ready to retire or
walk away from the game that i fell in love with since i was a child at four years old so he goes
into all that he calls the people puppets that were on television just saying shit just feeding
the narrative and says if you want any information about kyrie irving you should get it from kyrie
irving i agree with that That's what he said.
That's how he feels.
And I did hear that.
My dad told it to me.
Like, there's a few people that was like,
hey, if you want to be a voice for the voiceless,
you have to say something.
Well, now he did.
And I don't even believe that's true.
I believe you can lead through your actions.
You can.
You can.
But he did.
He said something now.
He made his stance clear how do we feel first off i'm super proud of him right taking a stance it's not about the right or wrong he took
a stance he stood on it um against he's losing a shit ton of money so it's not even about money
especially he's already rich
he's already rich but
in a world where
the powerful
will use whatever they can
to make you do what they want you to do
right
it's extortion
it's admirable to see someone
when you see somebody stand on the other side
against all adversity
it's
it's
worthy of applause, it's worthy of praise
especially a young black man
articulately expressing himself
and his views
he didn't really get mad
he didn't take the angry nigga route
he sat up there. He expressed himself.
He didn't, excuse me, like Stephen A. Smith and him were attacking his character.
He ain't even really fire back.
You know what I'm saying?
He sat up there with a mature stance, and that's where I'm kind of, with Stephen A. Smith,
like, yo, you took a real, real, real aggressive stance against a kid.
Well, he not a kid anymore.
He about 30.
He about 30, um i just think
it's whack but i'm really really really proud of kairi for taking a stance and rocking with it
i'm proud of him as well i am like noble regardless of how you feel your personal
opinion on his decision what he's doing is admirable. And we always get up here.
We always say like,
we're mad when white people tell us to shut up and dribble.
Basically, they were telling him to shut up and dribble.
Stephen A. Smith is telling him shut up and dribble.
You know what I'm saying?
So from one black man to another telling him shut up and dribble,
to me, it's corny.
It's whack.
And you did it on a public forum.
Call him.
For me, in's corny. It's whack. Like and you did on a public forum column for me in the sports world.
You have to be really careful about viewing things through only a sports lens.
Some of these topics. Transcend sports. Yes, they're bigger than sports and while our athletes to some may not be the people
to articulate why these matters are so big you can feel the passion when they speak right so
some of these things are so nuanced and so complex that they supersede contractual obligations and when i talk about contractual
obligations for me that's what's typically at the root of these things i'll go back to
kaepernick that was such a nuanced kneel very simple gesture and boy the sports world
responded and reacted
after one person
pointed out that that's what was
happening hey that guy kneeled
uproar but that was
so complex that wasn't the time
for us to rush to judgment
but why did we do that
why
and for me this wasn't so on front street oh the nfl has contractual
obligations with the military or the government or the army or whoever and it says that there
are clauses in here that make kneeling not such a friendly thing to do for business it's ain't
about black people it's about business over an nba we don't have that wording that wording wasn't
there in the contracts they had to create something that wording. That wording wasn't there in the contracts.
They had to create something that said, hey, no, you guys can show your unity.
You can hold hands.
You can do whatever you want because we don't have the wording.
But we would prefer you not.
It was a conversation to be had.
That never existed over in the NFL.
So here we are again in the NBA, contractual obligations.
Now we're mandated.
It's a contract.
The NBA, the NFL, these are private entities.
As a private entity, there are some contracts that protect business interests,
not people interests but when you bring those to some people some
independent thinkers out there there will always be a clash indeed think about this a couple a
couple months ago we congratulated naomi osaka because she bowed out of tennis tournaments to focus on her mental health.
Right.
She had contractual obligations to perform.
We sold seats at whatever open it was because people wanted to come see you perform.
You have to now separate the business from the personals.
Right.
And she did.
She bowed out.
It's no different than what he's doing.
On the human side, we applaud that from Naomi Osaka, Kyrie, Cap.
On the business side, Naomi lost a lot of money.
Kyrie's about to lose a lot of money, and Cap lost a lot of money.
So there's a balance that needs to be had to even be able to have the fight.
Look at these wealthy people that we're naming
that's to stand up and say,
hey, my mental health is more important
than my obligations to your journal,
your reporters and your press day.
And yeah.
You were saying how it's good.
I say how's it different because with naomi osaka she took that upon
herself to leave because of her mental health they're saying yo we gotta do this because of
mandates that are pressed down and he's saying he's saying well you're not gonna force that on
me i don't know what i'm gonna do but you're not gonna force that on me that's what he's saying
all right cool you have the right to decide to do that.
But until you do, you can't do this because of, not because of us, but New York City has said you can't be in here X, Y, Z.
Cool.
No, Ice, I'm with you.
That's kind of what I'm saying.
I don't see the...
It's a correlation because they both are doing something that they stand firm and strong in.
There are different pieces to it but
even with the nets the nets could have had him playing away games the nets could have had him
practicing and that would have been the greatest look for the team and chemistry and so all the
things they put the business decision they said no cool but again he's still taking a stance
and sacrificing a bunch of shit he He could be potentially sacrificing endorsements, sacrificing.
He's already getting ridiculed by OGs, right?
He's sacrificing a lot.
And I think when you, Cap is a damn near hero.
When you sacrifice yourself for the greater good, dog, that's to be applauded.
And we don't know if this is the greater good, but I'm just saying. Yeah, that's the only argument I would make is the greater good dog that's to be applauded and we don't know if this is the greater
good but i'm just saying yeah that's the only argument i would make is that uh the greater good
argument we don't know it's but to me it's a it's his personal decision we gotta shut up and wait
because these things are so nuanced i'm not i'm not leading i'm not lending thought to that all
i'm saying is history here has shown me that we never admire the stance as it's happening.
Never.
That's back from Dave Chappelle.
That was nuanced.
They kicked his back in.
They kicked his back in.
They kicked Caps back in.
And when you have the media control, you can tell the story.
Yeah, you can spin it.
Right? control you can tell the story yeah you can spin it right so even with the cap story
he met with prior to him kneeling he met with a veteran flew to the veteran the veteran told him
kneeling is respectful don't just sit down if you kneel that shows a certain respect to the
flag in the country and that's why he chose to nil as opposed to sitting the media don't tell you that piece they just say yo he said fuck the flag he
says he's anti-american blah blah blah that's not the case yeah they were actual veterans coming out
saying like yo we're not offended by this no we went to war that's what we're able to do this
right right so that's my point like when you don't control the media you don't
control the narrative you don't control the message
and I'm really disappointed with the Stephen A. Smith shit
because he's a media icon
right no question
so you could have handled this way way different
yo this is a young black
man you talking about
call me on the phone
call me on the phone
if you got something to say nigga Call me on the phone
You have my number
You got access to me
Even if you don't have my number
And address it
And then when you bring it to the media
You can even say
Yo I'm kinda disappointed
In what Kyrie did
You can tone it down nigga
We tone it down on this show
All the time
See my brain
Let me just say
My brain don't even get to nothing
It's just saying
Wally's correct
Because I understand Contractual obligations But at the same time My brain don't even get to nothing. It's just saying, Wally's correct.
Because I understand contractual obligations.
But at the same time, yes. Let me finish my point.
ESPN has a contractual obligation for Steve.
It's Disney.
That was my point.
And Disney is the NFL.
And they don't play.
They're all together.
Steve and Nate is for them.
My brain won't even get to this part of it.
He can't do that.
Disney do that play.
He literally can't do that.
No, he can.
Okay, no, no.
He can.
He would have to take a risk like Kyrie's taking a risk.
He can explain his displeasure in Kyrie's actions.
He can do that.
He can do it in a manner that's not as harsh nor brash as the one he chose he can definitely say
yo i don't agree with him we sit up here and say we don't agree with people but we don't got to
necessarily assassinate their character to do that right we do it all the time on this pod
something don't really rock with us nah it's not for me right he could and steve not just that
stephen a smith is one of the most articulate
black men we've seen on tv he has a vocabulary and vernacular to get his point across without
attacking that man i'm not agreeing with that and i don't give a fuck espn is his boss he can report
he can give his personal feeling he don't gotta do it in that manner
i agree there's there's ways to do it there's ways to express yourself without being
rude at the top of the week and a lot of companies or middle of the week they hold a big meeting and
they get the objective of the company agendas yep they get the agenda yeah they get the overview
they do all of that stuff.
After the football game or before the football game,
if it's a big story that could be disrupted to the locker room,
the coach or the GM might hold a meeting and let you know as a team how we're going to handle this, like how we're going to present ourselves,
what the messaging should be as a team moving forward.
When these things happen with Steve and A, you're right.
Ish, he could have done all that because he's mad articulate,
and he's like, you mad?
Right.
But when he don't do that, it tells me what the messaging
and the objective is overall from the up, up, up, ups.
Exactly.
And that would be,
yo,
this nigga's stupid.
And he didn't say that,
so I'm not putting words in his mouth.
No, he did.
He didn't say this nigga's stupid.
That wasn't a quote.
No, he didn't say nigga.
That wasn't a quote.
And we gotta be correcting this stuff.
You're right.
He said it's the stupidest nonsense I've seen.
I would think that that is a higher up type of thing.
Oh, you don't want to win a championship,
you selfish,
you putting your teammates
every issue
how could you not consider them
James Harden's a free agent
yo fam
I'm talking about
my wife and kids
we can get to that
later
they talking about
that's how it's here
they're talking about business
and he's talking about
yo look
one of the things
he said in the live
I'm only responsible for me
this body right here
so with that I have to i'm only responsible for me this body right here so with that i have
to see what's best for me flat out same shit as when and he's right in football they used to do
this a lot a lot in football people would be injured and they would force them to play
and they would guilt you in the play and saying yo you selfish you not caring about the
team right i even think kevin durant rushed himself back when he fucked his achilles up the
first time definitely he came back in three or four days aggravated the injury made it worse
right we are playing team sports from when we're kids right and so if you're a good teammate you put the team first
that is the sentiment that he's basically saying fuck you fuck your family and fuck what you feel
you are potentially ruining the championship aspirations of these guys and what kairi
is saying is fuck that championship i'm i gotta look out for me and my family i'm gonna leave it
on stephen a smith i'm gonna leave it on step A. Smith I'm going to leave it on Stephen A. Smith
and let's leave this soon
you're basically saying
fuck your personal opinion
I'm rocking with the organization
to critique him in that manner
that's ESPN's agenda
that's Disney's agenda
we're going to critique this guy
in our weekly objective meeting
whatever the fuck so in that case if that is ESPN's agenda and We're going to critique this guy in our weekly objective meeting, whatever the fuck.
So in that case, if that is ESPN's agenda and you got to bring it forward like that,
you are a fucking puppet for the man.
I could tell from the Nets messaging that they tight.
They tight?
I would be tight too, nigga.
I can tell.
We give you $40 million, I would be tight too.
If I was a fan of the Nets, I'd be tight.
I wouldn't.
But if I'm the Nets, I'm tight.
I'm not going to be tight.
I don't want to stretch this, so I'm shutting up.
I'm tight if I'm the Nets.
If I'm in business, man.
But I put humanity before business.
That's me.
You're a very, very small percentage that does that.
And trust me, I learn it every day.
I learn it every day.
These niggas don't care nothing about humanity at all.
Humanity is the bottom of the battle.
You want to play with that broken kneecap?
Come on out here, nigga.
Shoot these threes.
I don't give a fuck.
No, not do you want to play.
Nigga, come out here and shoot these threes.
But what about the people, and this is part of Kyrie's point, too,
and I'll advance the conversation to the amount of work stoppages
or people leaving their jobs estimated to be at an all-time
high now you can pull those numbers up alex so we can look at it but that's part of kairi saying i
want to be the voice for the voiceless because he's saying yeah i can do this but what about
the people who depend on their job for their livelihood and means of taking care of their family and now
they're being forced to make a decision about their body and their health when all the information is
not out there yet it's irresponsible so let's tie it into that what are these companies facing just
trying to get people to come to work during this crisis i think that or at some turn will we get you
to sign away
your rights
or to think less
about all of that
when you want to travel
when you want to work
when you want to go to circus
entertainment
sports
restaurant
we're going to get you somewhere
yeah
they are
like I said
they're going to get to the point
where in order to renew your passport
renew your license
you're going to see that
yeah
little facts
big facts
they're going to get there
they're going to try to stifle you any way they can to section eight vouchers all of that stuff yes
you're gonna have to be vaccinated they might start writing that shit on your license vaccinated
in a way oh no it's gonna be no no no you're not gonna be able to renew it without yeah that's
gonna that's where we're gonna get to in order to renew it you're gonna have to prove your
vaccination all of that so my my point with it with the working how far are we from getting That's where we're going to get to. In order to renew it, you're going to have to prove your vaccination.
All of that.
So my point with the working chip. How far are we from getting chips inside of us?
We knocking on the door.
Some people say they already do.
We're here, right?
Some people are saying they already do.
We're here today.
I don't think we're that close.
I do.
How close?
I don't think we're close because we have chips.
I think we've had this.
We all carry chips.
They're more agile than a tracker chip.
Instead, I can track you still.
They're tracking me right now.
And I can sell you some shit and you just hit the button.
Yo, I just, ooh.
Why would I chip you?
Chipping you means nothing.
Yeah.
I can control your thoughts.
I can control your emotions.
I can control your banking.
I can control your banking.
I own you through this yeah and
i can sell you some shit this is the chip we're close to the chip we have it no no no i'm with
parks on another level but i watched the article and they were saying basically with the vaccination
shit it was leading into that that when you put the chip in you, it's giving all of your medical data once somebody scans it.
Right?
It's telling if you've had this,
if you've had that,
you're allergic to penicillin.
Like, so if you fall unconscious, right,
and the EMS people come pick you up,
they don't know what you're allergic to.
Scan the chip.
Yup, we can't give him penicillin.
We gotta give him this.
He's had this before.
He's had this before.
He's had all of these ailments before.
It'll be your entire resume on the chip. That's why I want to him this. He's had this before. He's had this before. He's had all of these elements before. It'll be your entire resume on the chip.
That's why I want to interrupt you.
And they are kind of doing that.
So I make sure that we understand them clearly.
Are y'all saying because we have the phones, y'all don't believe we'll get to a place where they want to put chips inside of humans?
Potentially.
Potentially.
I just don't think it's that close because I think this is a more valuable chip
than we already have.
And it does the thing already
with the health information.
They do that.
It's in here.
They do that now
with your emergency settings
in your phone.
Somebody can hit a button.
If I'm unconscious,
you can click this four times.
My emergency card pops up
with your alert.
At some point...
You're a techie.
Everybody don't know that.
You're a techie.
But they're going to make it more... They're going to put... They're some point. You're a techie. Everybody don't know that. You're a techie. But they're going to make it for
they're rolling.
I'm not a techie and I know that
at some point in tech world they will
hit a ceiling with what they can do
in that form.
And something will come out
that says there are
mad more options if we can
put this in your wrist.
Some white people are putting chips in their kids.
They are out there.
So all I'm saying is that the technological advance of that,
to me, it looks like a chip inside of us.
Sure.
But Apple's already been pretty vocal about the fact
that they're moving into the health world
with the watch especially
they got oxygen sensors in here now
heart rate shit
they're gonna make it so the
air pods can determine how your breathing
is through your watch
so even if I'm rolling with what y'all
are saying at some point
a competitor will see that
and want to expound on that potentially
engineering is nothing but faster better tricker sure right we hit a ceiling with this we got to
be thinking of something better even what you're saying parks they're conditioning people now to
get comfortable with all this access in one spot that's true like we both use all the functions right so if the next step is hey
now we'll give you this right here which will even speed this up even faster now you can the
same way i can apple pay you can health health scan right all right now you don't need a watch
you can put this bandage on it does it then the next step like yeah i agree they probably will
progress further up all right i just don't know how popular if if they're doing it if they're doing it with the vaccine now
i could just see a future where that chip inside of you is like the wristband at the club that says
you can dictate where you go and you can go over here you can't drink you can drink you can do
this who has the chip who don't who has the vaccine who don't and that's me not being a techie a a planetary scientist whatever neil degrasse
all that shit is soon shout out to neil degrasse i love you soon your bank account information will
be on your body somewhere maybe not in the next five years ten years yo you're gonna get scanned
to pay but we are there no your body no he's saying what i'm saying your phone is on your
but what that goes for parks is saying you're just going to remove the phone and put it directly on
you they're not they're not here no i get it so i hear what you're saying i just don't think it
makes sense for them financially right right now the way technology is no not right now or in the
immediate this is progression few years this is progression so soon we leading away from change
every store you go into now uh the change shortage so we
prefer that you either have exact change or you pay with your card they're trying to push you
away from cash pay everything is trying to be digital the next level of that digital evolution
will be off of your phone here maybe that's all i'm saying i think that like that's we we talked about um
your cash is so dingy and dirty and i don't touch cash yeah i don't touch cash the other day
the guy gave me change i was buying like something like for two dollars you ain't
want to change i almost wanted to put the 18 in the tip jar because that's cheaper than me
carrying the risk
of where this money came from,
rubbing it against my pants
and my thighs.
It's just nasty.
I don't touch cash.
I don't really use cash.
We ain't so fucking stupid in America.
Me neither.
Me neither.
Keep a little couple dollars for...
No, it was a store
next to the nail salon.
I know.
I promise you.
It was.
Yo, my nice starlets.
Yo, my... Yo, my... Cash app, eh? Hey, was. Yo, my Starlets. Yo, my bitch.
Hey, even that.
Cash app, eh?
Hey, look, they take cash app now.
What's the difference, though?
That's different.
I'm not taking money home.
I'm using a card, getting money here, and circulating it right back here.
I'm throwing it out.
Right?
Or let's say I take the brick home.
My next time in Starlets, that brick is going to change from the store.
What are you doing with your $18? I'm it home they're wrapping transfer it to another pair of pants put in and dress to the germ wherever this is coming from it's disgusting
nigga they're wrapping it up putting it right in that brick that they gave us
listen all jokes aside but we talked about this on the pod a couple days ago when we were talking about the algorithms.
Somebody sent me some shit.
One of the fans sent me some shit.
And the shit was an article on it don't got to be your algorithm.
Dude said he spent the night at his mom's crib for like a week.
His house was getting worked on.
He said, yo, all the shit that was in his mother's crib started getting sent to his phone.
So they said that the algorithms will show your phone next to my phone.
So they'll start shopping shit that you normally buy to me.
Whether we had a conversation about it or anything.
Like shit that you buy, they'll start putting it on my ads and all that other shit.
Like for familiarity purposes.
That's crazy in personal i
looked at apartment before i got this one and i took a picture of the living room or whatever
but you could see the the um refrigerator in the picture you start getting refrigerator ads
that refrigerator ads not refrigerator ads that refrigerator that bosh refrigerator whatever the
fuck it was because it was a nice refrigerator. It was my age.
It was that specific.
Think about that. It wasn't some
just refrigerators.
Live with me
in conspiracy theorist land
for two seconds.
It's my favorite land.
Let's go.
Yeah.
You know what we're looking at
out there now
in all the industries
like for the most part
kinda
a shortage on chips.
Shortage on chips.
At some point,
they're gonna fix that,
right?
Of course.
Mm-hmm.
I expect them
to quadruple the load of chips.
Mm-hmm.
Which means...
However many chips
they thought they needed,
I think they're gonna make sure
that what we're seeing now
with the shortage of chips
for cars and phones and whatever else needs a chip will never happen again.
And I don't know how much that costs.
But let's pretend there's an extra billion chips lying around.
What we need them for.
Not just that.
If you're the chip company, you know you got the world by the balls right now.
I need you to commit to buying balls right now I need you to commit
to buying 10 billion
I need you to commit
to buying 10 billion
I need every one
of these countries
to commit to buying
10 billion chips
because we're understaffed
we're under man
whatever the fuck they say
now the chips
let's say we find out
that they're time sensitive
like the vaccine was
the vaccine
for your booster shot
when the hospitals got it,
you had to hurry up and take it
because it's only going to last for...
Havalon's going to last.
When the truck dumped all the fucking vaccine out
in Waco, Texas or wherever they was,
they gave it to the traffic
because we was going to waste it.
It can't be used after a certain time.
What if that were the case with chips?
And these extra 10 billion chips
were only to be good.
That we spent $200 billion on.
And we can only use these for the next three years.
We're going to find a way.
Do y'all think that there's somebody at a table somewhere that's going to come up with a new use of chips?
I'm out.
That's it.
That's it.
I'm done.
I'm done.
I'm done.
No, no, no.
I'm done.
Because I don't know shit. I dropped out. That's it. That's it. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. No, no, no. I'm done. Because I don't know shit.
I dropped out.
For real, I left.
Somebody's going to find a use.
You got to ask Neil about that next time.
Somebody's going to find.
You got to ask Neil about that next time.
Somebody's going to find a use for them chips on a mass scale.
And then you, it kind of only leads to, find a way to put this on a person.
Bro, if you really want to get want gang conspiracy land niggas been
saying that this was gonna happen 20 years ago i'm gonna argue with neil next time i fucking
see him because that's that's where me and him gonna i'm like mad human and he's mad planet
okay so when i say neil what is the worst case scenario with space pollution and all that shit
that we're surrounding the planet with? Like, what could happen?
He says, oh, well, asteroid could hit that shit and all that shit could tumble down here.
But you don't like Uber?
You don't like what you're getting from all of that stuff out there?
He likes the idea of how space can enable Earth.
He's not wrong.
He's not.
He's not.
You don't like GPS.
But if you a human
human human human
like he almost got mad
I heard it a little bit
when I said
hey Neil
all that shit is cool
but like where's our
cancer research money going
he got ticked off
a little bit
he said fam
if you knew the money
that was going into
space research
you would never say
that to me again
see and I wasn't
really directing it at him
I was just saying
hey don't you think that more money from somewhere should go to cancer research or what
are they doing with the money he took that as like a slap into me nasa he also pointed out that they
spend way more money on cancer research than mad they do on uh anything space not military
no well that's different.
But if you talk to him,
he'll explain why you need
the Space Force.
It's deep out there.
Anyway, shout out to Neil.
We love you, Neil.
Yeah.
And we're talking music
next time I talk to you.
Yeah, you gotta do it again.
Yeah, you definitely
have to do that again.
You gotta ask him
about the microchip, though.
I'd be curious to see
his stance on that.
This chip stuff, man.
It's real.
It's happening, man.
This is all pushing
towards a new world order.
The robot sniper dog? No. They strapped a gun to one of them little man. It's real. It's happening, man. This is all pushing towards the robot
sniper dog.
No,
they strapped a gun
to one of them
little robot dog
shits they have.
They're planning on
rolling them out at
some point in the
military.
So there's a robot
dog sniper.
Hey,
no,
Alex,
don't leave that
because I want to
read that like I
promised I would
for the audience.
April 2020 was the month of pink slips as the
rapid spread of covid19 resulted in the loss of 20.5 million jobs then fall 2021 is the dawn of
their revenge a record-breaking 4.3 million americans quit their jobs in august across an
array of industries according to a report released released Tuesday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
That's the highest level since, uh, fam.
No, I want to keep going here. This is interesting.
That's the highest level since the agency started tracking such data in 2000 and the sixth consecutive month of sky high quitting rates.
Meanwhile, the 7.7 million people who remain unemployed aren't for the most
part jumping at the roughly 10.4 million job openings leaving businesses after leaving
business after business with help wanted uh placards in their windows
you want me what else do we even need to read there we don't even those stats may seem puzzling
after months
they don't seem puzzling
we've been tracking this for a year
we've been saying it to you
employees don't
niggas is off it man
we don't need to get deep
we can keep this real simple
look what he says
employees don't want to return
to back breaking
or boring
low wage
shit jobs
that's just it.
That's it.
That's it right there.
And what has happened?
You got away with it for so long that...
What has happened?
Wages are super stagnated.
It happened for 30, 40 years.
People went home and was forced.
People went home.
Well, they started doing some thinking.
And was forced to think.
Was forced to think.
You had them in the hamster wheel.
And you let them off the hamster wheel.
And they saw some... And I'm not going back to running that wheel
for this bullshit money
when you start talking about people in America
not being able to just
maintain a living
fuck thrive, fuck succeed and progress
just maintaining a living
niggas are literally living paycheck to paycheck
the paychecks don't even be enough
millions of dollars are going
to either CEOs or shuffling off into
offshore accounts. There's going to be
a shakedown. I read an article the other day.
Goodell.
Roger. He makes
$40 million a year,
my nigga. I was like,
huh?
Damn.
Was it $40 million? Yeah, $40 40 40 or 50 million i was like damn hold up real quick
let me just say this to circle back to that identity chip thing yeah know what the chip
inside of us fixes that the chip in the phone can't what's that the identity theft
yes and no how how these phones use biometrics for a spell.
A crook going to find a way to circumvent the real shit.
That's what.
Might lead to some severed limbs, honestly.
No, not even.
Seriously.
No, you're right.
They'll find a way.
Just an example.
Quick example.
Sounds a lot tougher already.
It's tough.
Hear me out.
Minority report.
Still in eyes.
Quick example.
You know the little key cards you use to open an office door, open a building?
They can hack it.
You could copy that and write it with a $4 reader.
Now, that's just low level.
What I'm saying is once you put a chip somewhere, there's a mind out there that will find out how to copy that chip.
They started saying that the little chip in the credit card, instead of swiping no more your card that will prevent it from being cloned etc etc know what happened the crooks catch
up it made it harder though but they caught up it's the permanent they caught up what you're
saying is correct because a chip will always lead to another side of something if a chip inside of
your body leads to a number that they've now associated to your heart and your
heart only or your anything that is identifiable in only you then that's going to give those guys
a hard or your blood type or yeah that's going to give them harder it's going to give them a hard
week guys it is they'll get around it they will do it but it still it still won't be... It's a cat and mouse game that every
piece of technology faces.
It won't be mass
massly done. If that's not even a word.
Mass produced. The niggas in Brooklyn that's
getting the shit off, and I'm just saying Brooklyn.
I have no information if the feds are watching.
But the niggas that's getting that shit off
some of them
would have to find some other things to do.
I'll figure it out.
Some of them ain't that damn savvy.
They might not figure it out day one,
but they'll catch it.
It'll take a minute.
They'll catch it.
Day 60,
they'll be onto something.
You damn near would have to kill somebody.
I don't think so.
All right, well, come on.
Let's move on.
This is all in conspiracy theorist land.
You were making a point.
I didn't mean to.
No, I was just saying,
I didn't know he made that much bread.
He makes $40-$50 million a year.
That's crazy to me.
That's low compared to some of these other motherfuckers out here.
That's not crazy to me.
Okay, I guess.
I'm running the NFL.
Yeah, I know.
I need to get paid, buddy.
The biggest non-profit in the world.
I ain't going to keep seeing Pat Mahomes and some of these other dudes making $50 million.
I ain't getting it.
They redid his contract recently.
And this is off the head, so you can Google this.
You can look it up and fact check it.
When all the players was on his ass, the owner said, no, we like him.
He's doing a great job.
And when they renewed it, I said, oh, okay.
They really like him.
Yeah, yeah.
And then they announced how much he was making.
I was like, oh, yeah. then they announced how much he was making I was like oh yeah
it's more than meets the eye
he's more valuable
than the consumer
is supposed to know
there's a reason
the owners fuck with him
I bet it is
it's all big business
big business
you keeping our
good old boy network
moving
keeping it quiet
yeah like
fuck you talking about
but
we were talking about
wages wages wages people got off the hamster wheel Keeping it quiet. Yeah, like, fuck you talking about? But we were talking about... Wait, wages.
The wages.
Wages.
Wages.
People got off the hamster wheel.
Found, a bunch of them, found other ways to make money.
Yeah.
No, not just to make money.
Make more money.
That's it.
That's what I mean.
Or the same money, but I'm...
Or the same money with less work.
With less work, right?
Which is more money.
Found a talent, pursuing a dream.
I'm not going back to that. Right. No. And I don't blame talent pursuing a dream I'm not going back
to that
no
and I don't blame y'all
I'm not mad at them
I'm not mad at them
when Jokers was sitting
home on an
unemployment shit
I wasn't mad at them
of course not
I wasn't mad at all
like yo get it
if you can get it
get it
CEOs getting
billion dollar bonuses
while you out here
busting your ass
at low level jobs
get that money man
I'm not mad at that
at all
I'm not mad at how nobody eat steak I'm not mad how nobody eats steak.
I think the government's going to have to revamp some shit.
I think they are going to have, yo, dog, around my way,
they had help wanted signs in the Wawa for $19 an hour, dog, at Wawa.
You know, there's a help wanted sign.
With 401K, paid tuition reimbursement.
$800, yeah, like $800 sign on bonuses and all that shit for Wawa. I was like, damn, $ of this shit at Wawa and all that shit
for Wawa
I was like damn
40 grand at Wawa
but then that goes back
to a previous point
that you made
so what happens
when these companies
gotta up it to
18, 19, 20
whatever
cause they not gonna
take a loss
most of them won't
they not gonna take
the loss out of
at the back end
like
people argue with me
but most of them won't
we gonna make that money
up somewhere
And it ain't gonna be coming out of my pocket
So that coffee not $2 no more
It's $2.89
That Daily News is $3 now
That's Daily News $3
The Daily News being $3
It's really
Crazy
A day
I'm just saying
What do you feel about that?
About what?
The people not wanting to go back to work for bullshit
I love it
Support it I love it pay people more pay people more give people more like let them work from home yeah
whatever they are some some type of concession whatever whatever the concession can be but
rights need to go to the people now yeah to make the world function because we saw what happened
when the world stopped functioning and i think that it backfired on them i don't think that they thought they didn't anticipate
that yeah i don't think that they thought that yeah they didn't they didn't check their facebook
the people didn't realize how much power they held that's i'm joking but that's really what
happened that's true wake up call yeah yeah the people did not realize oh shit they don't know i
don't have to do this we We off the Kyrie thing.
I don't want to revisit it.
But just imagine, right?
The athlete is the product.
Just imagine if, because really, in the beginning,
everybody was saying they wasn't getting vaccinated, right?
Some of the major heavy hitters, LeBron,
all of them were saying they wasn't getting vaccinated right some of the major heavy hitters lebron all of them were saying they weren't getting vaccinated but just imagine 25 of the top nba players said we're not getting it they go
revisit that california revisits that new york that's when the loopholes start getting made
because it's too much money to being generated from these 25 people.
Kyrie stands alone on an island, so he can be ostracized. But when you take Kyrie, LeBron, Kawhi Leonard, AD, Trey, fucking...
You get what I'm saying?
When you start doing that, the people have the power.
The athletes have the power.
But everybody doesn't feel that way about this particular subject.
I would put a board with a cap situation. Anything. If the NFL would have done... I was going to the power. But everybody doesn't feel that way about this particular subject. I'm not disagreeing. I would put a board with cap situation.
Well, anything.
If the NFL would have done, I was going to the NFL.
The NFL would have done and realized that us, the athletes, we have the power.
And if they would have basically stood together for that particular agenda, they would have
rewrote some shit.
Fam, I take, we ain't got to go that far.
Remember when the Buc bucks decided we wasn't
gonna play yeah milwaukee yeah milwaukee bucks yo we're not playing we sitting out we boycotting
and other teams like you know we're gonna do that too what would have happened had everybody
rolled with them instead what happened was some of your higher up names started convinced no no
let's play we could We can impact more change
from within.
That's the mistake right there.
They start having meetings
with some of the top dogs.
LeBron was like,
yo, we can forfeit the season.
I don't give a fuck.
You know Kawhi didn't care.
Yeah.
In case you didn't know,
Kawhi was with that.
He was with it.
Wait, we can stay home?
I'm staying home.
You want to work from home too?
Stay home anyway.
Shooting, jumping from home.
You got Barack Obama contacting LeBron and them to,
yo, now y'all should end this.
Can y'all play, please?
Can y'all play?
Look at that.
Yeah.
There's a problem in there that nobody really want to talk about.
It's strength in numbers, bro.
Y'all had it.
We see y'all got it.
So we got to send somebody in there to break that shit up.
Somebody that y'all going to look up to.
Somebody that y'all are going to look up to. We got to get somebody in there because y'all was getting ready we gotta send somebody in there to break that shit up. Somebody that y'all gonna look up to. Somebody that y'all are gonna look up to.
We gotta get somebody in there cause y'all was getting ready to
fuck this whole thing up. And sadly
there's only two black men you could call.
Barack
and Jay.
You gotta call
Jay-Z or Barack Obama my nigga
to make the young black man dance.
You can only call two people.
Malcolm Farrakhan.
Dependent.
But they're the only three you can call.
That's crazy, son.
They had them.
They had them right there.
You can call Big U, too.
I can go through some names of people that can impact change.
Powerful man.
He's not strong enough.
Respect him, but...
I'm not going to say that.
No, no, I'm just saying, in a wide scale,
Big U could reach the youth,
I think,
or the street cats,
more so than the corporate black men.
You understand what I'm saying?
You got to get LeBron.
I mean, you got to get Jay.
You got to get Obama.
I thought you were just talking about
sending a message to black men.
No, no, no, no, no.
We were talking about, in a sense, like...
That's a demo.
Big U has mad influence in that demo.
Yeah.
Street niggas look up to him like God.
Yeah.
Right?
He's relatable.
He been where I been.
You can't tell me nothing.
Barack can't tell me nothing if I'm a street kid.
Big U can't.
You understand what I'm saying?
I'm talking about on a wide scale, black men universally, you got to go get jailed.
Like, we talking about- They'll put on a TV to send a message. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, we talking about with a wide scale black men universally you gotta go get jailed like we're talking about
like they put on a tv to send yeah yeah like we're talking about with the with the lockout
i mean the boycott they had to go get barack to say you'll talk to them and make them come back
and play please but he but who did barack had to talk to barack yeah that's what we're saying
so i mean i'm what you got guys. On the subject of lockouts and
all that shit, did
you guys read about
the Netflix employees?
A thousand Netflix
employees are going
to walk out in
protest of Chappelle's
show.
So something you
read did put the
number at thousands
of employees?
Yeah, this is from
Gizmodo.
That's the headline.
I think it was a
thousand.
At least a thousand.
Roughly, I'm sure.
Do I believe Gizmodo?
I can't remember if
they're one of the
ones I believe or
block out. There's a few I just block out. I think I saw it from multiple places? I mean... I can't remember if they're one of the ones I believe or block out.
There's a few I just block out.
I think I saw it from multiple places.
All right, but let's leave it at 1,000.
All right.
Well, the Netflix CEO comes out every hour to double down on his stance.
He does.
He does.
Every hour, he reminds us, yo, I'm standing there.
And he went on a Twitter rant that was well put.
Articulated.
Wow. He bodied it. I didn't see his rant. He bodied it. I didn't see his rant. Damn well put. Articulated. Wow. He bodied it.
I didn't see his rant. He bodied it.
I didn't see his rant. Damn, dude, let me try to
see if I can find it. He said something about
violence being in movies and being on screen
and nobody says anything. Right.
He killed it. My point to the
thousand people walking out is I think it kind of proves
the point that Chappelle was making. You are basically
making Chappelle's point. So they said
I've been on Twitter.
They had some shit. They had Chappelle dressed up like
Pookie. They had him dressed up
in like three or four different
really derogatory roles.
And they said nobody
said a fucking thing when he was
targeting that particular demo.
But now y'all want to stand and
go crazy and stomp your feet when he targets
this demo. and not only
that netflix has uh shows the 13 reasons why our kids were killing themselves they had the show
with the uh little kids in the dance competition whatever that was all types of super violent
fucking terrible shits all types of shit just all type we touched on that too he said we've stood
firm in our positioning before when
trouble came
he didn't say trouble but
alright he can't find a rant
so let me try
but this is the thing that
that Dave was basically saying too
and
I'ma
I'ma take it a step further
one of the fans hit me
one of the fans hit me and said
yo Ish
I love what you guys are doing
blah blah blah blah blah
So he brought up this
And he brought up the Lil Nas X shit
He brought up the Dave Chappelle shit
He brought up the Lil Nas X shit
Yo
I'm on the toilet
And I'm just
Me and him just going back and forth
Back and forth
Back and forth
So he was a gay dude
From
D.C.
Right
And he's just kicking it
And I said yo
What did Dave Chappelle say
That you as a gay man Disagreed with He said nothing I said yo um what did Dave Chappelle say that you as a gay man disagreed with he said nothing
I said okay so he made a statement saying I've never targeted the LGBTQ plus community
I targeted I'm targeting the whites he said yo you can't be a downtrodden society and want people to be empathetic right if you're not
showing empathy to other downtrodden people in society you can't be a gay white person right
and feel for discrimination against gays if you're racist because then you got to feel for discrimination against blacks or spanish we we we
do the the asian hate thing right we do the asian hate rightly so right but a lot of asian people
don't fuck with blacks so you can't feel marginalized over here and you want pity but
then you don't show that same grace to other people that are marginalized and he ran a circle
and came right back to the same point
and dropped the mic and said, yo, stop beating down my people.
Or stop punching down on my people.
You're potty.
You're stupid, yo.
I just give credit where credit's due, my brother.
So that's the conversation
that I had with the dude.
So I don't see, if you feel something,
y'all be blinded.
It's like, it's a blind thing.
Like, at my girl's job, they were talking about, it was a little while ago on Shore Hills Mall.
This black girl got punched by a teacher, a school teacher, in the mall in Victoria's Secret.
And she recorded the whole thing.
The cops came, didn't do nothing to the white lady.
She's like, no, no, no, lock her up.
And I punched her,
y'all put me in cuffs.
Y'all not even kicking her out the mall.
That's what I remember.
And her co-workers said,
yo, I don't see why
the girl just kept the camera on
the whole time.
I think that was wrong.
And I said, yo, fam,
how do you turn the victim
into the villain?
Talking about she was
recording it too long right
no nigga i'm recording it long so that the story can't get misconstrued when it gets relayed it's
all on video you can't you get what i'm saying i i don't understand how well you taping you
taping our crimes is a crime yeah the guy that taped eric garnigan killed went to jail yeah
and they raided his house like the same week. Yeah.
That's nuts, bro.
So that's what he's saying.
Basically, like you can't pick and choose when you want to be empathetic.
You can't pick and choose when it's Me Too movement.
He used Susan B. Anthony and what's the black lady from back in the day?
That's Don't Help Me Is.
Harry Tuff.
Not Harry Tuff. Sojourner Truth.
Sojourner Truth.
He said, yo yo Susan B. Anthony
And them were all
For these women's rights
And they invited
Sojourner Truth
To their
Former
And when she went to speak
They said no no no bitch
You can't speak
Huh
I thought we
For the downtrodden
But now I'm further down
Than y'all
Y'all white women
I'm a black woman
So I'm going even further
Like that's all
Hypocrisy and bullshit to me.
And that's his message for the whole show.
That was his message.
The closer.
That was his message.
And if you missed over that, you intentionally missed over it.
I was going to say, they did it on purpose.
They're hypocrites.
Don't want to point out their own hypocrisy and want to be comfortable in it.
Like, yo, yeah, he's right.
But so what?
I agree.
That's all I'm getting from this.
I'm not taking it down shit.
That's all I get from this.
I appreciate that too.
I appreciate the owner of Netflix
is not being bullied to take it down.
He's not going to take it down
because of the numbers and the money it's pulling in.
Let's be real here.
Because if it wasn't doing that,
it would be down.
I knew he was going to say that.
No, I'm just like,
yeah, all that sounds good,
but we not stupid.
All of this sounds amazing.
It's just making more motherfuckers
go see what he said.
Exactly.
At the end of the day, I win.
So yeah, get mad.
I'll issue a statement.
Keep talking about it.
He could lose money though.
You could lose sponsorship dollars.
You could lose et cetera, et cetera.
But I get your point.
We giving him $20 million a show.
A $20 million a special.
We need to recoup that.
Fam, this is staying up.
I don't care what y'all say.
What's your stance?
The whites got to go deal with Spotify and Joe Rogan before I deal with this.
Yeah.
Elaborate.
Nope.
Or not.
Joe Rogan is on Spotify
offending everybody in the world.
Whenever he feels like it.
He says whatever he wants.
He says whatever the fuck he wants.
And he has the license to do so.
Encouraged.
Yeah, they're pushing him.
Keep doing it.
Spotify don't ever come out
and have to give a comment
on their thoughts about it.
They going through age. Spotify workers, we come out and have to give a comment on their thoughts about it. They're going through.
Hey, Spotify workers, we walking out.
Spotify, the other podcasters.
Yo, what the fuck y'all letting them do?
Spotify don't get to say shit.
The most they do is they'll pull an episode.
So now because somebody's black.
Because Joe Rogan ruffled the same feathers.
And worse.
And some.
He did.
And some.
But now because somebody's black, got to hear from netflix's
decision netflix cancel him get him out of here no no no no no you bring that down the street to
your community you do that i agree because on my side even if you write ice and the netflix ceo ted
is only doing this because there's money involved. I am so glad that he built his business
to the point where he can make that stance
next to a black man.
Yes.
And he don't have to succumb to public pressure
and we see somebody have to be out of a job.
Yeah, I'm glad about that.
I agree.
Thank you, Netflix.
Thank you.
Spotify.
Spotify.
Salute.
