Hey, guys.
I literally have not said a word.
I haven't said a word.
And already I'm being attacked.
You have a way of not saying a word.
I didn't attack you.
All my life I've been persecuted that way.

Look at Hiss with his headphones on.
He wears headphones all the time.

And if I say something, he's going to be like, yo, why are you attacking me?
Honestly.
Who plays victim better than me?
Honestly.
I'm glad you know.
That's a weapon.
It just don't work when I do it.
Because people presume me to be something, whatever.
It's not about me right now.
Playing victim is a weapon?
Hell yeah.
Is he shitting me? Of yeah. Can you shit in me?
Of course.
Y'all niggas.
Now y'all.
I don't do that.
On episode eight of Jocelyn's show, Amber put her hands on Jocelyn.
Jocelyn pushed that bitch all the way back.
She said, don't you ever put your hands on me.
And then she started checking her, right? And then they cut to the Amber confessional. She said, don't you ever put your hands on me? And then she started checking them, right?
And then they cut to the Amber confessional.
She started crying.
That's a black woman.
I was like,

I'm looking at it and saying the same thing I say when I look at all these shows, and
I didn't mean to start it this way, but we here now.
Fuck it.
Y'all took all the top viral moment guys, majority of them gay, in this climate.
I think it's only two guys admittedly straight on the show, and Kirk Franklin's son is unsure.
Because they asked him, and he said, I don't know.
Well, nigga nigga that means something
they asked you yo would you ever fuck a guy and you say oh it's gonna i'd rather not it's on
oh it's not confirmed nigga kirk franklin style his son yes so anyway they take the top viral
guys they throw them on the show i don't know what costs, but they all messy and a lot of them ratchet.
And if you just put a camera
on certain people,
I know this from Joe Budden TV,
shit get different.
Shit get different.

So that's what's happening.
They got a dude

Y'all heard that little snippet that Royce played?
Nah.
That song?
I did.
You talking?
Yeah.
Hey, where that snippet at?
No, I got to find it.
That's what that was about.
Because I woke up this morning.
I had a missed FaceTime from Royce at like midnight.
I'm like, fam, I'm asleep first off.
This was a couple nights ago I think though.
Oh alright.
Then I don't know
what that was about.
I mean not to say
they couldn't have been
about the same thing
or something.
I don't know.
No where's that snippet at?
On this page. It's time to My search of the validation's the first step to a shallow grave, it's the worst stress
All I got for you is these words left
Any man who can stab a man who just gave him the shirt off his back deserves death
Oh, I don't wanna hear about it, no
The first chance you got, you stabbed my back
And now the lesson's learned
Oh, don't tell me shit about it
Because what goes around
Comes around
And now what you
This what you coming at?
You would've came in right there.
You would've.
You would've came in right there.
I ain't gonna hold you.
You would've came in right there.
Why do you think he posted this?
Why you think?
We don't have to read into it too much.
We know Royce.
Why do you think he posted that?
Royce better stop, yo.
He better stop, man.
You know, I think all the rappers
is like our own Marvel universe.
I feel like he's fucking doing that shit.
Stop, yo.
No, he is.
He's 100% doing that shit.
You know when Cyclops
fucking mastered the glasses
and he just started
coming outside
just
like chill man
cause I feel like
he trying to
tell me to do something
right there
that's one of your
little type of
yeah but stop
yeah but
that don't need
139 bars
from me
I'd have a lot
to say on the topic
and then and then see that's cheating though 39 bucks from me. I'd have a lot to say on the topic.
And then,
and then,
see,
that's cheating though.
Ah,
yo,
retirement is like having a big joke.
I just thought about that.
You know what retirement is like?
It's like going to jail
in Monopoly.
Like,
you know how niggas
made that a weapon?
At the end?
Yeah.
Because you can really
pop out,
get some shit off,
and never start again.
You just steal a nigga,
pop,
and run back in the house.
Oh, yeah.
I'll put 200 bars
on the Royce record again.
Right back to potting.
Holy shit.
And I ain't got to do nothing.
Royce did everything.
Yeah.
Nigga made the beat,
the hook,
sung it,
the flow.
All you got to do
is do best.
I ain't know what he did,
that little cheating motherfucker, man. Little soulful shit. He didn't know what he did, that little cheating motherfucker, man.
The little soulful shit.
He did that for a reason.
That's a good nigga right there, boy.
That's my man, man.
Anyway, how we doing, man?
Good.
Good.
You got to stop, yo.
I wouldn't even be mad at it.
I know that sounds wild coming from me, but...
And that was a nice little opening line, too.
Yeah, that sounded a little...
Oh, and I did the same.
That's my mind.
That's my mind.
No, that's the question.
Keep it a buck.
Oh, man. How many? How many? How many? I did the same. Never mind. Never mind. No, that's the question.
Keep it above.
How many?
How many?
I know you did it.
I didn't call him for a reason, though.
But I just want to know how many.
Because I feel like, stop, nigga.
Nah.
How many?
He'd have to remix it.
What I was doing can't be the track.
It can't be a song
everybody would get it
on this record
all of them
everyone
if you're thinking it's you
it's you
on this record
and I'm out again
don't ask me nothing

Joe going to rap on that shit.
You just coming right. Yeah, that's the point.
He know what he did,

when we talked,
come on, Joe, you know if you was

y'all two don't even have to broach that one both you two niggas sitting here no good
and goddamn well that shit wouldn't have lived for a day anyway come on man that's my guys
that's my guys all right what we doing what we talking about what we talking
about how we feeling went out last night, had a blast. Oh, yeah.
Oh, my Lord.
Oh, my Lord.
I was going to hit you the other night because I went to Mermaid's.
I saw the food truck.
I went.
Oh, my God.
The guy.
But I was a couple hours late on the check-in on the Instagram.
I was like, damn, man, he's probably gone.
No, I would have hit you, but it wasn't the greatest night at Mermaid's that night. And that was my third that night.
So it's that night there. But the other night at Mermaid's, that night. And that was my third that night. So it's that night there.
But the other nights at Mermaid's, great.
But that gyro, that little truck, I shout out to my guys, man.
I ain't paid for a gyro since I've been over there.
Look at the little things that, that's the best.
That's all it takes, a little gyro.
A little free gyro.
Celebrityism.
You know, no.
So you know why that interests me, right?
My worth is worth way more than a Jairo.
I'm clear on that.
And I might even be pronouncing it right.
Is it Jairo?
Depends on who you ask.
Is it Jairo?
Is it Tarjay?
Important question.
But anyway, my worth is a little more than a free meal.
That wasn't mermaids.
And I'll pay for it, right?
But if people are just kind,
you take it.
Then it feels good.
Kindness always feels good.
That's appreciation.
It does.
It does.
I got to get better.
I got to be kinder.
She was kind.
Now this is,
that's,
that's,
you know how to even talk.
You know how to is a work wife?
Like, if there were such thing as a strip club wife, it's her.
Like, I damn near, she's probably, she might be top four baddest strippers in New York dancers right now.
Look at me, clit riding.
Anyway.
Clit riding. Anyway. He said clit riding.
Because it's nothing worse than being in a spot
surrounded by just misery and pain,
and then something walk out their back.
And your whole mood.
You're surrounded by misery and pain.
Yeah.
Why are you in a...
What misery and pain is in a strip club?
It'd be some miserable nights
me and you
had shared one
yeah dog
oh gotcha
okay
come on
don't make me be the person
no no no no
I didn't
I got it
I got it
a dark gloomy
strip club night
and something just
walk out the back
like a light bulb
and the sun starts shining
walked out late too
she didn't need to be
out there early
with the rest of you
with the rest of you yeah With the rest of you.
Yeah, I'll get my money
when the money comes in.
Oh my God.
Jesus.
Why do you love birds?
All right, but anyway.
Oh my God.
On to more important things
to discuss.
Because people have been
hitting me like crazy
saying, oh, I can't wait
for you to break all this down.
And I've been looking
at my phone.
I've been busy all week.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
But.
Huh?
I'm lost, too.
Yeah, I'm all right.
Well, they were talking about all the Meg stuff.
Oh, OK.
Wait, what else happened?
Who else unfollowed?
No way.
Yo, the unfollow really is news.
But no. There was a back and forth. Well, apparently she was just going off. Yo the unfollow really is news but no
they uh
it was a back and forth
well apparently
she was just going off
she was going off
on whom?
Oh so she started the
I don't know who started it
I'm not placing blame
I'm not
I'm not doing none of that
I'm just reporting it
as I know it
and as I caught it
her and Carl Crawford
had an exchange.
Label beef.
Yeah, label beef.
They've been having this beef.
But they both were vocal about it yesterday or whatever day that was.
Because they're going through some litigation, right?
Yeah, she's trying to get off the label.
Right.
And he don't want her off the label.
Naturally.
So, yeah, they went at it on,
I think hers was on Twitter.
I saw her going on a rant.
Like, messy dudes.
You didn't pay me.
Your beef isn't with me.
It's with 300.
Just let me go.
Things of that nature.
And then the name calling came out.
I got a little chuckle out of the name calling.
Who called who who?
Both of them.
Yeah, both.
Can we get examples?
Nah, I'm chilling.
I don't want the Stallions upset with me.
Gotcha.
Yeah, I'm chilling.
I did enjoy it though.
Well, that would make them upset at you.
What, that I enjoyed it?
No, I enjoyed the whole thing.
She got her shit off too.
All of it.
All right, where do I begin with this
to update people that are not
in the know?
Carl, I don't
want to be signed. I'm not going to read that.
See?
You talking
about I ain't paid. Hey, give me something
to read.
You talking shit to me like I got
your fucking money. You are attacking me. Why?
Because you want to be famous, not rich.
Ask Kevin Lowes where your stupid money at.
See, Ish, this is where our conversation last week about Meek and Mixtape EP album comes into play again.
I'm not sure what is at the center of their dispute,
but she's trying to get away from him.
He has paperwork on her that says whatever it says,
but he has that paperwork.
However they ponied it up,
they seem to have worked something out between all parties involved in that,
seem to have worked something out between all parties involved in Meg,
which is Roc Nation, which is 300, which is you name it.
Whomever.
But it's all worked out.
So what I gather from what Meg is saying is,
yo, don't even talk to me about this.
Like, talk to the people that you've been talking to.
Talk to the people that are handling this.
This is not a you and I thing anymore.
To which I understand that.
I understand that.
Yeah, that's definitely fair.
We all have lawyers and representation.
Y'all figure that out. Yeah, figure it out.
That's what they're supposed to do.
That's what your people are for.
Right.
I don't know what...
Yeah, but when you say that...
Okay.
But when you say that,
you got to know what you're saying.
You're saying,
yo, whatever you think I owe you,
go holler at the top seven minds
in all of music
and deal with it.
That's what it's saying.
But, because from what I read
from her, part of her rant,
the EP or something that went out they agreed
to count it as an album this goes back to our previous conversation that's why
I was bringing yeah she's like yo you signed the deal with 300 so if you
missing some money or something like y'all worked out what was gonna count as
an album EP whatever go talk to them I don't owe you no bread and that's kind
of what she kept saying I don't know you no bread. And that's kind of what she kept saying.
I don't owe you no money.
Like, if I'm an artist on your label,
you're technically supposed to be paying me,
not me pay you.
Right.
She did say that.
So that's what it seems like the root is.
But again, this was kind of out there.
Yeah, but nah.
That's just based off assumption
because if I'm the production company, nah, you owe me a check.
You and all your business partners, y'all know what time it is, y'all owe me a check.
Meg said, yo, you signed off on the last project, meaning you know it was an album.
And he's saying, yeah, but it came out as a mixtape.
That's what it came out as.
We're not done.
We still have business.
So it gets messy, and they've been messy.
I don't want to report on it because I don't know.
I don't know all the facts.
It would just be opinions, but it's messy.
I'll tell you that much.
Yeah, it seemed like this ain't going nowhere for a while.
Yeah, it's a little ugly.
Like, you would think once it's in court that y'all would let court a while. Yeah, it's a little ugly.
Like, you would think once it's in court that y'all would let court deal with it, but that's not even happening.
Seems to never go that way, does it?
What, the court shit?
Yeah.
People get emotional.
And he's talking about stars.
So, stars going to be stars.
So, they take to the gram or the twit.
You know what I'm saying?
Niggas want to get their twit off.
I don't even understand that because I think that hurts.
Niggas want to get their twit.
Look, niggas get their twit off, not their shit off.
They get their twit off. I see what you're saying.
I see what you're doing.
It's cool.
Yeah, I don't quite get that.
Like, if you have your peoples and y'all are already in court, you shouldn't be speaking on shit, no?
I would tend to agree, but I've seen it go this way more times than I've seen it go the other way.
Yeah, it's taking too long to get the resolution you want.
Right.
So I'm going to jump out here and say something.
But you could be fucking your case up.
You could be.
Or you should just shut up.
Yeah.
Because you might even let a nigga know that you know something.
You know what I'm saying?
And then now they like, oh, shit.
Let me go make that go away or whatever the case may be, I think.
I don't care too much to report on the story because we keep seeing the same story from everybody i like the report on when
they find the solution to this but they never really give us the solution when they find it
right like it's the same thing uzi was going through with drama right yeah yeah there's a few
there's a few more y'all that are going through this that i won't say it's a lot of them a lot
of people are going through it but But they keep the solution quiet.
And maybe if that didn't happen, then people would have learned something. I mean, the solution a lot of times would be somebody getting paid off or bought out.
With an NDA attached.
You're not going to get that information.
You know what I'm saying?
You're not going to know nothing about the results of the settlement.
If it's me, right?
Because I want to take this off of them.
If it's me, and...
And you've gone through some of these struggles,
as we outlined on the last pod.
Being signed to a production company,
being signed to a label.
And that's why I...
It's tough for me to have certain empathy
when some of these stories come across,
because a lot of us good artists that have gotten fucked in our careers certain empathy when some of these stories come across because
a lot of us good artists that have
gotten fucked in our careers
last decade, like last
two decades.
The verbiage
was so different
then. It was so...
Well, I think they're trying to get a lot
of the same shit off now, even though
the business model is very different.
The business model different, but when it's somebody that one knows and one has no idea.
I mean, you would have never seen a new artist have this leverage ever.
Right.
Ever.
Yeah, because of the social media.
But I think a lot of the contract language is still similar to what was happening even in the
physical world they could become stars without music right you get what i'm saying so when they
sign to a major label or production company i'm talking i'm taking it off of music they become
personalities you know what i'm saying whereas when you came out your music spoke for you and
then you became a person these motherfuckers could have one song and be damn near household names because of social media they'll start getting a file could be based
on the way they dress it could be based on tiktok a big it could be based on their antics you know
what i'm saying social media and they'll blow up and so now once you blow up you get an ad money
over here you can add money over there and you start using that as leverage but i think where
the conflict is happening what i'm saying is that i think a lot of the contract languages and practices
and quote-unquote standards are still the same as they were when it was dependent on moving a cd
and he was talking about leverage yeah like he was talking about leverage i'm saying i'm talking
about all of it they brand themselves outside of music right right and so you could still get
bags you got me on the papers over here for music.
But I can still go get a check. I can go make a shitload of money doing everything else but music.
Right, right.
And now I can come back and strong arm you.
That's smoke and mirrors.
You think so?
Smoke and mirrors.
Maybe not financially.
It's a myth.
Y'all are right.
But it's a myth.
Financial.
Give me the person that has done that away from their backing,
away from the label support, away from their big management team support.
Well, no.
Give me the person that came out, got all of that leverage,
and then continued to remain profitable, stepping away from the machines.
Nah, what we saying is they come out,
and whether it be like
a production company,
small label,
something of that sort
and once they blow up
they get with the company
that has the big machine
who put you everywhere else
and then use that leverage
to snatch you away
from the little dude.
Oh yeah.
Big bang take little bang.
Oh yeah.
You can't starve me musically.
Right.
Because I could go get money
over here.
I could go get money over here.
I don't got to put no album out.
I'm making money from these particular vices.
So you can't really use the old school.
We're just not going to let you drop.
We ain't going to let you drop.
I remember when back in the day you was trying to put your album out.
When you was going through your Def Jam shit.
Or actually you did your album but you ain't give it to him.
Some shit.
I forgot.
I was always a disruptor.
Yo, but what I'm saying is, that was your primary source of income.
Oh, no.
Yeah, I was fucked.
So, had social media been how it is today, you could have went and got a bag from over here.
You could have potentially went and got a bag from over there.
You could have got a bag to feed yourself.
I could have, but it's a myth.
You might not have gotten rich.
They control everything.
I'm saying you might not have gotten rich, but you could have, but it's a myth. You might not have gotten rich. They control everything. I'm saying you might not
have gotten rich,
but you could have still got bags.
Small bags,
possibly 2,500,
3,500 here and there
to steal.
Bags to survive
and now you're under
the same conditioning
that nine to five
working class people are.
I ain't,
I don't know.
I'm just saying.
And that's not a slight.
That's not a slight at all.
But the government has us all working and slaving away most of our lives just to live.
Survive.
So now we got to all go crazy when gas prices are high.
And I sound stupid saying, hey, well, we need the gas.
Well, no, that's privilege.
Some niggas got to do without the gas.
Well, that says shit is fucked up.
And we can't get bare basic.
That's got gas. Yeah, when you're making life decisions.
I said this at the last pod.
We was laughing.
But, my nigga, when you got to put gas on layaway until your check comes, that's crazy to me.
It is.
I saw a dude post a video.
He was walking out, and he caught somebody trying to siphon gas out of his truck.
I saw it.
Royce posted it.
Oh, yeah, Royce did.
Royce posted it.
He was like, yo, my man, fuck you doing?
And the dude was like, yo, my bad, bro.
I just needed a little bit of gas to get out of the street.
But that's what it's come to.
Niggas is out here running around siphoning gas.
Yeah.
He should have got his ass siphoned.
Yeah.
I definitely would have punched the shit out of him.
Yeah. Don't siph got his ass cycled. I definitely would have punched the shit out of him.
They're running around like star makers.
Actually, you and I were the ones that had this debate back in the day when we did what we do.
Rihanna and Keisha Cole.
We was having whatever conversation it was about who makes a star and all of that.
But back then when I came in, they picked who they wanted to be a star.
I'm sure.
And that's who got the resources and the funding and the rights to the real great producers,
the great songwriters.
The hits that came in the door was going to them.
The deals that came to the lawyers was going to them, right?
But they were picked.
Like the talent played a part, but it wasn't the biggest part part and you fast forward to today and it's more of that when you look at the people that are winning and the people
that are getting these deals that you're talking about they are people that are being chosen there
are far less there are way less triple x's who took his audience, understood his audience,
was a rebel disruptor, doing it
different. I'm not signing a deal. Y'all offered
it. I'm going to do it this way.
Luckily for his family
because now he goes and his family
owns his shit.
And he was a baby.
Rest in peace, triple X, my guy.
But that's what I'm saying.
What y'all was saying was,
if people thought it was so common or so easy or so doable,
we would see more of it.
We don't because it's controlled.
Ain't not only that.
I think a lot of people are free to.
And you have to learn that.
And you have to learn that.
You got to go through it.
Like, you was there when I was going through the album shit, right?
Common sense would tell me, all right, you got to get gotta get it another way all right now you're trying to get
in these venues and then you learn from the venues oh shit it's a chain here you gotta come from two
oh y'all got it it's monopoly again but it's monopoly i'm i'm running around without owning
shit so every way i land i pay i'm fucked yeah so and that's how I end up giving away
my rights and my ownership
I have 100% of the pie
but now everywhere I go
what good is all this money
if everywhere I go
I gotta pay out
so you can help me
on the radio
here take 3%
Pars can help me
on the ads
promo marketing
whatever shows
live venue
here take a little bit
over here
oh you got a production crew
that get busy
a content
y'all gonna give me the content cool oh you got this on lock the streets over here i need
protection by the time i get to after the label take this this person to publish it take that i'm
down about 10 of my own shit and now as i gotta learn about taxes yeah wait i gotta get the
information after i already made the decisions oh you got to
get the fuck out of here I don't know how we went on this tangent but that's what I think of when I
see these things Meg has to continue to produce so everybody could be happy tough spot to be in
it's a tough spot to be in I would agree yeah it's a lot of pressure on her
and from what i was saying before and you fucking right that i would be looking back
i want some old contracts and say hey who getting paid what for where wait what they doing now
wait how long that's gonna be no i need a little more and then when you look at it and see that
they were trying to like no you can't put no more
music out like they were trying to block her
releases at that point so it's like damn
you trying to make the money off me you won't want me
to drop I can't move like yeah you get
some fucking frustration setting in but wait
no see cause I understand his
side too and I won't stay here too long
but if I signed you
and now you go blow up
I'm hey you gotta pay me every time you land
somewhere hey you went and blew up i have you signed hey that deal that you went and cut with
this company you shouldn't have did it that other deal that you went and cut with that company
oh you shouldn't have did that neither hey and these big companies are saying fuck me
because i'm a little get down and lay
down so now i gotta go get with jay prince i gotta go get backing like i understand this side as well
yo it's nasty yeah it is it's nasty it's very nasty priest all involved indeed i don't want
to poke my head in nobody's contractual business.
This is how people feed their families.
It's a real thing.
And there's real money involved, especially when you understand it.
And it's a lot of people and a lot of families getting fed.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
It's hard to be like, oh, he's the bad guy or she's the bad guy when everyone's trying to eat.
You know what I'm saying?
When I came in, it told me, Skane told told me a hit song feed a million families something like that
I didn't understand
that at the time
it just sounded cool
million people maybe
he said a million families
even if the number's off
yeah
who cares
right
it's the concept
yeah
it's a conceptual thing
yeah
that's right
yeah but it's not
until you start learning
just how many people
eat off of one song
I don't understand
NFT yet but I think I got an
idea it's similar somehow
a lot
of people eat off one record
that's a lot of
a hit like a hit yeah I believe
that one of
them megas we used to tell a story
I think the guy that said he owned like owned Yeah, I believe that. One of them megas. We used to tell a story.
I think the guy that said he owned like, damn, what was that Usher story on Confessions where he said he let the producer get half a point or something off one of the records.
And then he sold like 10 million records.
And he started talking about the check that came from it.
50 Cent gave a story where he offered somebody like a half a point off of some shit on a-
On Get Rich?
I think it was Massacre.
That was the second one, right?
Yeah, Massacre was the second one.
I think it was Massacre.
Or it might have been Get Rich.
He offered the dude a point because he really couldn't pay him.
You know what I'm saying?
He offered the nigga a half a point on some shit and the shit sold 10 million albums.
It was 50 grand versus 30 grand.
He offered the nigga like 30 grand and a half a point, and the dude was like, no, I want
my 50 grand.
And the dude took the 50K.
They got the 50K somehow, and 50 was saying, yo, you stupid motherfucker, you would have
been up up.
You know what I'm saying?
You would have been up up.
Some people don't have the foresight to say that, though.
True.
I just want the money.
Some people don't have the foresight to see that, though. True. I just want the money. You know, some people don't have the...
It had to have been get rich, though,
because by massacre, you would know
it would have not taken that long.
Or, and he would have had enough bread.
It was get rich.
It probably had to be get rich,
because he had enough bread when that massacre dropped.
But I think today, like you was talking about today,
I think niggas is learning about equity
versus the cash out.
You know what I'm saying? So people
are starting to go that route a little bit more.
Even the youngsters. That's fucking the game up too though.
It is because you got to be careful with that shit.
Everybody don't recoup.
I don't.
It's making things trendy to
talk about. That's true too.
It's making people just say
things that they don't quite
understand.
I would agree.
Not all.
Don't think I'm being like some type of dick.
But there are a lot of people just.
Dog, you see it across.
And so social media be a gift and a curse.
Yes.
Even in crypto.
Even in like niggas be like, oh, yeah, I'm buying such and such.
Nigga, that shit is trash.
And you out here pushing it.
It's trash.
In real estate,
motherfuckers got all type of
flipping shows
and real estate shows
and they telling you,
oh, you could buy this fucked up house.
Oh, you gonna spend 30 grand, 40 grand?
No, you're not, nigga.
Right.
You're gonna spend 140 grand
to renovate this piece of shit.
You're not gonna get in here
and just buy some doors
and put some paint on the walls
and sell it for 100 grand profit.
That's not gonna happen.
So misinformation and information,
they a gift and a curse.
Back to the 50 example,
if he went gold
or even sold 250,000 copies,
which is way more artists that do that
than sell 10 million,
that extra 20 grand
would have been way more worth it
than the half a point.
You understand what I'm saying?
Like everything isn't,
you shouldn't seek equity in everything. Gotcha. And everybody isn't built for equity. You understand what I'm saying? Everything isn't... You shouldn't seek equity in everything.
And everybody isn't built for equity.
You should seek equity if you can
afford to not take the check.
Yeah. That's when you seek
equity. You got to have a little foresight on what you're
seeking equity into. If I'm up to the point where
I could accept that
half a point or whatever,
and if it turns into absolutely
nothing, it don't bother me.
Then I'm all right with it.
That's what I think a lot of the young investors do.
You can't hang your hat on it like this is it.
A lot of people jumped into that crypto, and when all that AMC, GameStop shit started happening,
I seen people getting fucked up just for FOMO, fear of missing out.
You see everybody else talking about it, and it's like, oh, let me do this.
Oh, y'all making money over there.
Well, guess what?
I'm going to go get every dime I got and place this, quote, unquote, safe bet.
And you're three days late, nigga.
Nah, shut up.
And you're too late.
You're three days late, don't up.
Nah, shut up.
They're ready.
They did that shit, yo.
They did.
Yes, they did.
That was great.
That was powerful.
That was ill, man.
That was dope.
Are they still doing it over there?
That was dope.
I haven't heard a story like that happen since then.
You won't.
They shut that shit down.
The government picked up the little bad phone and called the little special trading apps.
Hey, shut that shit down.
That's true.
That's true.
We not trading this.
Hey, y'all don't count.
Yeah, y'all ain't supposed to play this game like that.
What the fuck y'all doing?
They did shut down all the-
This game ain't for you.
They did it fast, though.
Yeah, they did.
Fast.
Immediately.
I'm telling you,
if anybody in America just said,
you know, I'm not going to work
for a week.
But watch the John Stewart.
It wasn't even a government thing.
It was the wealthy
that shut that shit down.
Go watch that John Stewart thing
I talked to you about.
It was...
No, it was...
Two of the biggest funds in the world
was heavily, heavily, heavily
backed by that.
Well, they own the biggest funds that run all this shit own the fucking apps, the world was heavily heavily heavily backed by that well they own the
biggest funds that run all the own the apps the robin hoods and all that so once they
saw that they're gonna take a hell on this what started happening was they said like the payout
at the at the call point was like negative five billion like yo and the more kept buying
it they would have been 10 15 15, 20 billion dollars in.
And so they had to stop it.
Like they had to stop the bleeding of the nose before that shit turned crazy.
But I think it's bullshit.
Yeah, of course.
It's some terrible shit.
It's really the powers that be.
Yeah.
Like nigga, y'all said do this.
This is how we can make money.
Yeah, but y'all start losing money, y'all cut the water off.
And that's some bullshit.
Yeah, you're not supposed to know.
That game is for us to play, and we manipulate it, and we win as we see fit.
It's not for the common man to come in here and start caking up.
No, nigga, what you doing?
No, turn that off.
That's exactly how it goes.
Oh, wait, they caught on to it.
Yo, yo, wrap all this shit up.
We out of here.
In reverse.
And they did it in reverse.
In my brain,
that's more the reason
why they target hip hop that way.
Because outside of hip hop,
they definitely ain't want to see
all these young millionaires
pop up out of nowhere.
No.
Especially black.
Never.
And learning about ownership
at the same time.
I want to see what they're going to do.
Wait, wait.
Y'all getting all this money.
Let me finish my point.
So if I'm them,
what am I tracing this back to?
I'm tracing it back to hip hop or hip hop culture where this information is spreading
and where this wealth is being spread.
So yeah,
I'm going to get rid of some of these niggas.
They,
I want to see,
they can't get rid of it.
And that makes sense as to why we come in here and report on a rapper death every other
part.
Well, it slowed down recently. Thank God. Thank God. Makes sense as to why we come in here and report on a rapper death every other part.
Could be. Well, it slowed down recently.
Thank God.
Could be.
Thank God.
That's my conspiracy theory.
Yeah, I want to see how they stopping the sports.
Because they can't.
Like to what Ice was saying.
Like KD and these niggas be putting their money in everything now.
Because they got so much money that if it don't hit, it's a write-off.
And if it do hit, woo-hoo.
Oh, you starting some shit oh you need
two million
oh yeah
but you saying
how do they stop it in sports
I'm saying
the powers that be
these niggas is making
so much money
in sports dog
like if you take
the top 25 NBA players
like barring injury
all of them
should be billionaires
before they
damn near retire you You talking there?
You get what I'm saying? So they're going to find a way
to shut this down. It's too many
young black people getting money on a different level
of money. Wait, wait, wait, wait,
because this is full circle back to my
smoking mirrors. It's a myth point.
They're getting the money that they're
being allowed to get. I agree
with that. But once they allow
you, like,
like you saying,
what are they going to do in sports?
I'm thinking they don't have to do nothing in sports
because they got the force field over their,
whatever their prize possession is.
Like,
they're not going to let no black person
come in and own a football team
without running it by the 29,
31 other people.
Except 19 of them might be racist.
They all 90 years old.
Hey,
we,
we good.
We got a board. We got a board.
No, no, no, no, no.
We got a history.
Hey, Colin Kaepernick got more time for taking a knee than a whole lot of other shit going on.
We know how they feel.
They make the sentiment known.
You know what's the main point you said?
What?
Give it to me.
They 90 years old.
That's the most important thing you said.
They 90 years old.
And new white culture fucks with us.
It's cool to fuck with the blacks.
I think it's a myth.
I don't. I think the Meek Mill
running around with these niggas and all.
Wait, wait, stop. Because I don't want to sound like that.
What you're saying is correct. I think
on the flip side of that coin,
the old racist fucks are
raising racist kids. Some of them.
Some of them. Not all.
It's a lot of progression happening.
Them white daughters is giving out some black blowjobs, my nigga.
Be clear.
I'm just telling you.
No.
They are.
As funny as that is, because that's hilarious.
Like, that was, I wanted to hold up.
They are.
That don't equate to love.
It don't.
You know what it equates to, though?
And this is, before y'all start killing me, I'm not saying-
No, I think this is a great conversation, by the way.
Before y'all start killing me, I'm not saying that this is what we should be aiming for.
But when you sucking black dick, pause, you are more accepting of it.
You're not just totally against.
So when we be like, oh, y'all niggas happy that-
You talking about liking Godfather Harlem.
Yes.
So, but guess what
happens generational it starts to break down because now my kids going to school with the
racist nigga kids and whatever you instilled in me for the last 18 years i'm starting to get a
different view of my roommate over here so for some year it stays but then for some it does not
when the italian chicks are sneaking off with the black dudes, they starting to be more accepting of it. So financially, when you can't stop these
niggas from getting to a certain bag, after a point when Steph Curry retires and he's 45 and
fucking LeBron is 45, you not going to be able to stop them from pooling their resources together
and buying a team. You're not. It's going to be more to stop them from pooling their resources together and buying the team you're not it's going to be more and more
of that because they money
going to be so long that you're not going to be able to stop
it when Jay-Z starts spearheading this
and you got Puff over here and you got this one over here
and you got that one over here
as much money as Jay-Z got is some art
that's not for sale to him
I agree with you I'm just saying this
now we're going to circumvent that because I'm going to make Parks
buy it you get. I'm just saying this. Now, we're going to circumvent that because I'm going to make Parks buy it.
Oh, then, I mean.
You get what I'm saying?
Yo, Parks is going to be the head of the blah, blah, blah organization that's spearheading the purchase of the Dodgers, i.e. Magic.
You get what I'm saying?
So, I'm going to partner up with some white boys.
Even though we shouldn't have to.
That's an option.
That's how we're going to do it.
That's totally an option. Parks going to be the
face. I do it. Of course. I know
a lot of people that do it. That's totally
an option. Parks don't even like sports.
But I'm not going to call that
black Wall Street. I'm not either.
What I'm saying is this. Parks don't
even like basketball. Yes, he does.
He's hypothetically speaking. Parks don't like
basketball. He got 20 million.
He's like the only Pacers fan I know or something.
Look.
Shut up, man.
Go Pacers.
I do not like the Pacers.
And they got a young squad over here.
They ain't bad.
Yo, Parks likes the Pacers.
I mean, Parks got $20 billion.
Me and you got $100 billion apiece.
They might not let us in.
They're going to let Parks in.
So, Parks going by the team.
You can't tell parks now
that he can't sell some of his majority stake to us for a premium and that's how you got to
circumvent the game to get in niggas did it what's the movie with fucking um anthony mackie and
samuel jackson when the niggas all of them no the banker the banker and that's what they did
they taught a fucking white boy
all his financial verbiage
and all his financial jargon
that he didn't know
and the nigga
damn they bought
all of Los Angeles
the niggas owned
the biggest
and it's a true story
the niggas owned
the fucking biggest
building downtown
Los Angeles
they was going to banks
to get money
they was turning them down
and the nigga was like
we gonna buy the building
that all the banks is in
and they did it they had motherfucking the wife in there They was going to banks to get money. They was turning them down. And the nigga was like, we're going to buy the building that all the banks is in.
And they did it.
They had motherfucking the wife in there acting like the cleaning lady.
They had mad shit going on.
You just used a white boy as the scapegoat to get your shit done.
Now, should they have had to have to do that?
No.
To all of y'all that's going to say the bullshit.
No, they shouldn't have had to have to do that.
But now you got to just be resourceful.
So, no, Jay-Z making... You get your foot in the door
and that's how you change the game.
You can't change it from outside.
And there you go.
So if I got to play the game that way
to get in the door,
it's 600 billionaires in the United States,
my nigga.
600.
And pretty soon,
it's going to be more and more
and more black people on that list
every two, three years.
So now we're going to're gonna i reply to you guys with the tyler perry award speech i'm done with y'all look at what he said
though that speech speaks for itself he said yo back in the day he said my family was sold on
this land or some slavery shit now i came back to buy the whole fucking plot. And then he went on to speak to,
hey, y'all keep fighting to get a seat at their table
instead of making a table.
I know.
You need...
And I'm not arguing against none of you.
No, I'm just saying you need resources to make the table.
Both things are perfectly acceptable business models.
See what I'm saying?
That's what I'm saying.
It's really not in the debate.
Right.
Get to it.
Get to it. Get to it.
I say that too.
Fuck they table.
I'm talking about
in certain games
that they own
if you want to be a part of it.
They own all of them.
And as you get older
you get mad.
I just got mad
driving up 34th Street
on the way here
looking to the side.
Okay, pizza spot.
Okay, Chinese spot.
Okay, bodega.
Okay, big clothing store.
Okay, we got Megs.
We got... We ain't got shit.
We can't...
We just ain't got
a fucking thing, dog.
It's disgusting.
Put some money
behind somebody
and have them make
some oxtail on 34th, nigga.
You got money?
You know how much
oxtail costs?
That's not the best spot
right now.
It's telling me to get into all the businesses that would have me crumble. That's not the business model right now. It's telling me to get
into all the businesses
that would have me
crumble.
That would have you rich.
No, you told me to go
to the strip club.
I just think it's
so much liability.
How many thousands
you spend in there?
A few.
There you go.
I told you fuck

Yo, shut up, man.

here you go Mr. Skorupski
he paints that little picture of me
like he says I painted of him y'all don't point out that he paints that little picture of me like he says I painted
of him.
Y'all don't see
the picture.
He paints that little
whatever picture you
be saying I paint about
you with white girls.
I don't know what
you be saying.
It ain't just white.
It ain't just white.
But no I'm saying
if Puff told him to do
what you're doing.
If Puff told you to do
what you're doing.
If Puff said yo you

New Jersey get a
restaurant over here

You could have had that.
Y'all add to that narrative.
I hate all of the narratives, bro.
That's true.
That's the truth.
Yo, you know why Puff is so ill?
All me and him did was fucking beef about shit.
Not beef, but think tank.
No, we're not saying he gave you that idea.
If he was one of the ones that gave you that idea.
Or just who you would take advice from.
Yes.
I take advice from you.
Are you kidding me?
There's some advice.
Hey, you told me pull off when them niggas was coming.
And you told me pull off when them niggas was coming to shoot me in front of heaven.
And I drove off.
You pulled off?
Yeah, but I stayed up in the lot.
After 15 minutes of arguing.
The things niggas do for some.
Cat.
Look, it don't even be nah that was wild
it don't even be Siamese cat

it don't even be the premium cat
yo
you know what's funny about
a man can never say that
you can never say that unless you've had the same
you can't say that about You can never say that unless you've had the same.
You can't say that about somebody else's sexual experience with somebody.
You and somebody might have been whack, and then somebody else with somebody might have been fire.
I'm talking about one man's, one man's, what's the word? Trash.
You're in a men's state.
Yeah, you can't do that.
One man trash could be another man trash too, though.
And I ain't going to hold you.
Now that I'm older, in hindsight, see, I'm the only one that's honest on this podcast. Yeah, you can't do that. One man trash could be another man trash too, though. And I ain't going to hold you.
Now that I'm older,
in hindsight,
see, I'm the only one that's honest on this part,
but it's fine.
I'll cook.
I'll cook alone.
Iso, clear it out.
In hindsight,
a nigga has risked his life
for some trash.
Oh, they have.
Yeah, nigga.
It didn't even have to be
the greatest of...
That is true.
Oh, shit, she was a mutt.
That was your Iso? I was a mutt.
That was ISO, nigga.
You got ripped before you got to the basket.
That was no ISO.
I'm just saying.
We've all done that.
We've all done that.
What I'm saying is this.
In hindsight, you might have thought that was a treasure.
I follow Gloria Velez like I follow Prince in the airport.
When I saw her at Lowe's in Miami in the lobby,
I was going to a whole other place.
And shit, Gloria Velez walked by with four friends
that was in that same ballpark.
I did an about face.
That nigga don't play.
They just started walking.
Yo, when that nigga set his sights on target.
I just started walking.
Hey, she got in the elevator.
I got in the elevator.
I didn't know what to press.
I didn't know what to press.
I just kept going up. They got off early, too, like 6 to press. I didn't know what to press. I just kept going up.
They got off early, too, like 6 or something like that.
Oh, fuck.
This nigga like a heat.
I didn't even get enough time to look cute.
She didn't even see my side profile.
What you saying over here?
Nah, for real.
Nah, when you set your eyes and sights, it be like.
Blinders on. You don't see nothing else. saying over here? Nah, for real. Nah, when you set your eyes and sights, it be like...
Yo, the word,

The horse with the little shits on his face.
The whole bullshit.
Yeah, that shit was...
But I've been like that

yo, dog,
worst thing to say is no.
Oh, shit, yo.
You make a good point.
You learn that? Yeah, if you polite and you have respect, then. You make a good point. You learn that?
Yeah.
If you're polite and you have respect, then you just have a cool opening line or whatever.
Call this nigga Dollar and tell him he created a monster.
No, that's a yammer.
That is true.
The earlier you learn that, that is true.
Because I used to go off to some spiritual shit like, oh, if she was so fine and God
wanted her in my life, then I'll see her again.
But now I'm about 89%
in that, though. I'll always
see him again. You'll make it your
business to see him again.
It won't be haphazard.
Happen. Sometimes it is.
Yo, don't do that.
It's only me, right?
Yo, this much,
it was by Coinkydink
the rest was

Back to that gyro conversation earlier.
You know your work.
I was like, I don't want people to get conditioned to where y'all think y'all can just send
some sneakers and niggas are going to start talking about something on a pod.
Like, that's not going to happen.
At least not every pod. Let's keep this organic to where to start talking about something on the pod. Like, that's not going to happen. At least not every pod.
Let's keep this organic to where we're talking about something

bullied, so they bully me.

what I hear.
And my introduction
is where it always starts
for rappers.
It's, can they rap?
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
And she can.
And you can.
I'm glad you know that
because they be playing
with me on social media.
See, but that's where it's interesting for women because the audience that y'all speak to maybe is not an audience that has always been familiar with rap.
Right.
Like lyric.
Yeah, yeah.
Rap.
So how would they know how to not to be disrespectful?
To tell me if I can or can't rap, motherfucker.
Yeah, no, you go crazy. Tell me. I want to be disrespectful. To tell me if I can, I can't rap, motherfucker. Yeah, no, you go crazy.
Tell me, I want to know everything.
And my job here is to not, is to not, how do I say this?
Is to not, I don't really want to understand Lotto the artist.
I want to get to, for this brief time that I have you Lado
the human
yeah
cause I told you off mic
your little tweet
I almost cried now
I almost cried
that was not my intentions though
I think people felt more sorry for me
than I wanted them to
I just be talking like
I'm in the new generation
like we grew up on social media
I don't know how to shut the fuck up sometimes
and I told you off camera you can't do you can't play like you can't just make older niggas
like me cry when they read things because i've been through things and it's triggering so when
you say yeah and yeah you got half a many followers all across socials, right?
So you stay, and that's what the thing with these new people.
Y'all got followers.
Yeah.
It's mad niggas listening and watching.
Yeah.
So you say things, and that's what it is. You can't say it's somebody that's about to drop.
Yo, this album right here, they trying to take my joy.
They fucking with me.
My head's bad.
It's supposed to feel good, but it ain't feeling the greatest.
You said that.
Yeah, I did.
And I saw the five heartbeats.
Yeah.
I meant that, though.
I meant that.
That's how I feel.
That's the head space I'm in right now.
But it's more so like I'm going to get through it.
I don't want people to feel bad for me.
I got it.
I got it.
Do you feel like you're saying that because it's just so much you have to do right now
to prep for this album?
Or is it-
No, I think it's just so much stuff going through, that I'm going through right now
that I just didn't.
And I'm like, damn, I can curse.
Yeah.
Girl.
I'm just like- Girl. Girl. I'm just like.
Girl.
Child, don't mind me everywhere.
That I just didn't know that people do.
I just be like, damn, for real?
Like, I just want to rap, bro.
Oh, I don't know why you chose to be a rapper.
That business of music.
Yeah, it's the business stuff that's just like,
it just frustrates you because, you know,
you can't speak on certain stuff,
and then it's just like, they tell you to shut the fuck up,
but it's like, this is what I'm going through.
Bitch, I don't want to shut the fuck up.
Now, when you say shut the fuck up,
do you mean, do they tell you that in music or interviews, socials?
Like, on the label side, they're like,
you're on the showroom too much.
Shut the fuck up.
And then the fans like, shut the fuck up.
You clout chasing.
I'm like, or I'm venting.
Clout chasing or fucking.
It's a thin line because people don't,
people, once you are an artist or a celebrity,
they don't think You get the vent
Oh god
Like you're not
Human no more
Oh god
Oh god
They think you can't
Be human no more
But we still
We still deal with stuff
And they think that
Because we famous and rich
Any problem that we have
Is
Is
Is
Nothing
You got money
And you got fame
You shouldn't have
No problems But People just don't know Well that's why I like Talking to the women Because is nothing. You got money and you got fame. You shouldn't have no problems,
but people just don't know.
Well, that's why I like
talking to the women
because,
number one,
y'all are dominant right now.
And number two,
y'all experience
is going to be
unlike anything
we've ever seen before.
Like, for me,
this isn't what
Queen Latifah was going through.
This isn't what
MC Lyte was going through.
Like, the women
that I came up,
huh?
Or they might have been
but there was no
social media
for them to release them
yeah
you get what I'm saying
like I'm sure Latifah
has had her fair share
of shit
cause she's a megastar
so
they just didn't have
social media to run to
when something was bothering them
or they didn't see
all the hate
cause there was no
social media
you know what I'm saying
like people can't
like now people feel like
they can get at you.
When we let them get at us,
when they see my clapbacks and stuff, they're like,
ooh, I'm provoking this bitch.
Plus they probably had to play it cooler
because the industry at that time
wasn't as many women rappers at that time.
They probably felt very afraid to
speak up. I'm sure it was hate,
but you just didn't see it.
How much do the comments
affect you? They affect me. I'm sure it was hate, but you just didn't see it. How much, how much, how much do the comments affect you?
They affect me.
I wouldn't say like,
I wouldn't say like too much
because I know how to take it
with a grain of salt too.
Like I use the comments
positive,
in a positive way too.
Like,
when they say,
they was talking about like
one time they was talking about
my BET Awards performance
and I went back and did it way better the next time.
So, and it make me like.
I thought you smoked that, how you handled that.
I thought so, too.
But, you know, social media don't talk, whatever.
I thought so, too.
Y'all let these niggas rappers get up there and hold they nuts.
These niggas rappers.
Wait.
Wait.
These niggas rappers.
But we got to, you know what I'm saying? They critiquing my breath control and shit. But y'all ain't talking about, oh, dude, how his hair. these niggas rappers but we gotta
you know what I'm saying
they critiquing my breath control
and shit
but y'all ain't talking about
old dude high as hell
and he
I think it's just
they want you to
see you hear a lot of that
from the girls too
about they
they will highlight
the unfair advantages
that men have
for real
so I'll
I'll read the comments
and like
critique myself
and do better.
I can take it as like
constructive criticism sometimes.
But then sometimes
I do fuck on my mental though.
All right, so take me back.
You fell in love with rap when?
So first it started in school.
Like I was a phenomenal writer
in school.
Like I was in fifth grade
competing in like high school
writing competitions and stuff.
My mama got all these plaques, me winning all these writing competitions.
So essays and poetry and stuff like that.
I loved language arts.
That was my favorite subject in school.
So I just liked wordplay.
And then my daddy, he was like a street nigga growing up.
So I was around that lifestyle.
He was cool with rappers.
He loved cars.
So he would pull up to the video shoots, put the cars in the video shoots.
Was this lit?
Yes.
And I was a daddy's girl, so I was on his hip every time.
So I already liked words.
And then I'm growing up around like, oh, that's Mr. Collar Park.
That's the Shop Boys.
That's Big Boy.
That's, you know what I'm saying?
So I'm growing up, franchise boys, I'm growing up around all these people.
My daddy, I was on a set of Sierra Goodies, ATL, the movie, Jagged Edge, Good Luck Charm.
Just like being around with him.
Explosion.
Yeah.
So like my personal
how old are you
if you don't mind
23
got it
yeah so I was
I was a baby baby
oh you know what
really hit it too
um
I was on set
for the uh
B5
All I Do
and I was like
oh my god
they kids like me
like
so I was like
oh I could do it
but it was really like my personal passion for words and then what I was already growing I could do it But it was really like
My personal passion for words
And then what I was already
Growing up around

She love Jayden
She a R&B like soulful
White girl
Okay
Yeah
I ain't say nothing
She ain't no caring.
No, I ain't talking about you.
I'm talking about social media.
They be like, you and bitch was raised by a white woman.
Bitch, you did not care.
I hate that they have to deal with this show.
I hear it at the tip of her fucking brain with every thought, every idea.
That's nasty, yo.
I need to stop talking about it.
That is nasty how they have us fucking conditioned.
And the nerve of the fucking label saying something about being on the shade room when they probably in bed with the shade room.
I don't understand it, yo.
I'm telling y'all there's some...
Give it to me, Ish.
Give it to me.
It depends on the content.
Those same labels will have a hard time giving somebody a release date or push if you're not on the shade room
or over here.
But depending on what you're doing on the shade room.
I need her to be quiet. Or you're not the conversation.
Or you're not hot right now.
But if she got an album coming out or if I'm trying to build
her brand and she on the shade room
negatively, then they're
going to have a problem.
They're as positive on the shade room?
Yeah. No, I ain't going to lie.
I like the shade room. On Sunday mornings, no, I ain't gonna lie. I like Sunday morning
On Sunday morning and get right back to fucking something
That was cheating fine secretly in private and here y'all go wanna ruin a whole nigga life that was cheating cool
This girl happy
This girl happy as could be gonna shave him right after gospel post
oh such and such
was caught right at this
Kentucky Fried Chicken
right over here

that ain't his girl
they did that to poor Mimi
I don't be on there
for all negativity though
they post my
they like you yo
yeah that's cause they like you
see but that's why
they fuck with me
she's one of the liked ones
and she still goes through
this psyche
is what I'm saying
yeah
but you only liked until you're not.
All right, so aside from that social media shit,
well, you're not really liked until you're not.
No, they build you up to break you down.
Yeah.
They build you up again.
Yeah, but you know what?
Somebody told me that on social media
and I started looking at it like,
damn, it means something for people
to even want to criticize me
or just like, you know, fake bully me,
hate train, fake hate train shit. It mean like I'm doing something right. Like, it was like like you know fake bully me hate train fake hate train shit
it mean like
I'm doing something right
like
they was like
you know
you close to your break
or whatever
so I was like
damn they do
sure do be like
attacking everybody
before they blow
I'm gonna tell you
the reason why they do that
yeah
is because you give them
something back
like if you were able
to just
completely turn
it's hard
it's not easy
I keep saying
be Beyonce
to these bitches
I be like
what would Beyonce do
Beyonce ain't going back
after a while
it run out
like alright
we keep shooting at this one
we keep shooting
she's not giving us
nothing back
alright cool
we on to the next one
but when you give them
something back
it tells the next
alright now
let me make her react too
that's literally
what I be saying
yeah it adds fuel to the fire
that's literally
what I be saying I just got a child I don't know what I got to do one's literally what I be saying. Yeah, it adds fuel to the fire. That's literally what I be saying.
I just got a child.
I don't know
what I got to do.
One day,
I'm going to be Beyonce.
One day,
I'm going to be Beyonce
to these bitches.
We ain't there yet right now.
One day,
I'm going to be Beyonce
to these bitches
and y'all ain't going
to be able to bother me.
Yeah, but you're 23.
We got time.
I hate blaming it on my age,
but it do play a part.
Of course.
Yeah.
And you grew up
in social media.
See,
the goal is to have these,
have some people who hate you and critique you when you 30.
Yeah.
And then have some of them when you 35.
See,
the longer you go.
Yeah.
And that's when longevity comes in.
You learn they don't leave.
They part,
they part of the journey now.
Yeah.
And like you said,
I like the first thing you said,
which is,
yo dog,
I said that on Twitter,
but I got this. Yeah. I got this. I got people., I like the first thing you said, which is, yo, dog, I said that on Twitter, but I got this.
Yeah.
I got this.
I got people.
No, yeah,
because I don't want it
to ever be like
a pity party thing.
Like,
I know I'm not the only one
that has moments,
you know,
mental breakdowns
and like,
you know,
I'm not the only one,
so I'm not trying to like
victimize myself.
I think people took it like,
oh, she just wants sympathy.
Like, I don't.
I was just speaking my mind.
and then the story before that,
I won't focus on it, was, but it's interesting being a woman having to deal with, yo, clear this for me.
Yeah.
Oh, wait, what?
You're not?
Or getting that call from your people, like, yo, we having a hard time cleaning.
Yeah.
I was just in the studio with.
Man, that shit be crazy.
Like, that's the moments I'm talking about that just have you mind blown.
Like, this shit is a lot.
And even having to learn as an artist wait
I got to clear some shit with these other niggas over here with a nigga. I just fuck with on the tab
We know what?
23 it'll be artist to artist relationship and we fuck with each other and you know, we want this song to come out
But it's other fucking old white men
running this shit that got say so on our creativity
and our personal relationship that shit is crazy shit is a myth i'm telling you because it'd be
the old white men that she's talking about that will go say hey go do it artist artist
so it looks like you have that control yeah and then once you do but then exactly no we gotta do
numbers the numbers now hey y'all can make a marriage on wax we gotta make a marriage behind
these doors to make sure this money is right that's all great but you niggas have no idea
what i had to go out and do to get my little wayne verse that nigga was on tour doing some
shit he was roller skating he can't get that nigga away from that little road when they tell
you wayne the rollerblading or whatever that shit is you're get that nigga Away from that little roller skate Alright When they tell you Wayne the rollerblading
Or whatever that shit is
You dead
That nigga left this shit
Went and did the verse
Oh shit

Oh god
You start celebrating some shit
You better text that nigga
Oh no
That ain't how it work
I learned that real fast
And now you married to the song
Yeah
Oh my god
Now I love the song
And it's like Wait this not going on my album?
Last minute, I'm figuring these things out.
Like, okay.
I want to hear about the album.
I want to hear about the label.
I want to hear about your relationship with the label.
I want to hear about how you feel about the label.
Yeah.
I ain't going to lie.
I'm happy where I am, though.
Like, I feel like I got the whole building's attention.
I feel like I'm a priority.
That was one of the reasons why I signed with RCA in the first place.
It was a lot of young black women when I walked in.
So I feel like, you know, I know.
Hold on, I'm going to round of applause.
Yeah.
I feel like, you know, I'm not going to be steered in the wrong direction.
I'm not going to have, like, somebody who know the culture.
I don't want to be, because people see me grow up so they
know this is authentic. I can't have no label
come in and infiltrate my authenticity
because the people fuck with me.
They respect me because they seen my come up.
I used to sell CDs, pass CDs
out. I came from that.
I didn't want nobody coming in and
whitewashing me or just making me too
commercial. You know what I'm saying?
What else? What else did you ask me about mad shit yeah all label related i fuck with the label though i do fuck
with the label all right i won't get into there being an attempt to whitewash you but how do you
or the label respond to uh the oversaturation in the market for women rappers?
I think they give me a lot of creative control, honestly.
Like a lot of stuff that people see.
Or rappers that are women.
I hate them.
Women rappers.
Rappers that are women.
Sorry.
They give me a lot of creative control.
So everything that you see is really just me being authentic and just standing out just off the strength of me just being me.
It don't be too much thought going into it.
I'm actually very talented.
I push my pen and I go in the studio and just try to be the best me.
And it just happens.
That was actually one of the first things which got me.
Like they said, I'm a lot of hot.
I'm big on I got to believe it.
Yeah.
I got gotta feel like
you're not playing a role
you're not being a character
and
first
records I heard
I was like
yo
shorty alright
I talked to a couple
of my people
they're like
no she get busy
like that's her
yeah
like she'll fuck you up
yeah
she ain't just rapping about it
she'll fuck you up
I was like
oh yeah
nah I'm in
oh you be fighting
nah no more they gonna sue me
I like my money in my bank account
round of applause hey you got some good hey you doing a good good job
I don't know what your role is here but somebody's pumping some good information
into this young lady nah you're right they will sue your ass
no they will sue my ass that's why you know shout know, shout out to Aix, my security guard.
Yeah, we don't play that.
Yeah, you don't.
But you used to be fighting.
You used to be fucking with yourself.
Mm-mm.
They knew about you.
Nah, that's big.
That's high, yo.
That's big.
Nah, it's making sense.
Nah, it's making sense now, yo.
With the Vaseline on your face.
Stop it.
Okay, so on this album, what's happening? You rapping, you letting these bitches know? No, yeah's making sense now, yo. Put the Vaseline on your face. Stop it. Okay, so on this album, what's happening?
You rapping?
You letting these bitches know?
No, yeah, for sure.
Like, I set the tone.
So when I first, this funny, it's going to be kind of hypocritical, but just listen,
hear me out.
At first, when I started the album, I was like, I don't want, don't send me no typical
female rapper beats, women that rap beats.
Like the shake, shake that ass, shake ass pop it pop it like i was like i'm not talking about sex i'm not talking about pussy i'm not
talking about nothing no but then i was like then i was like damn i'm gonna be a sellout
because this how i was introduced to the people with muwop and bitch from the south or whatever
so i was like i can do that but let me let me just remind them that I get the bars off.
So I was like, okay, I'm a dude.
I got Willie featuring 21 Savage, so that's like the strip club anthem.
Give you that and get off of that.
So I'm not going to just stick to that for the whole album.
So I got the intro.
It's crazy that when I play my album for people, they be like,
the intro my favorite.
I got even down to like the feature selections.
I wanted it to be like a rapper album.
Like, damn, this bitch rapping.
That's the impression I wanted to leave off.
So yeah, I did end up incorporating a song or two.
You know what I'm saying?
But it's for sure rap shit
on there.
That's where my passion is.
That's where I want people to leave.
That's what I want people to leave with when they listen to the album is down there hooking
rap.
So you make a left turn in your career.
What percentage of your fan base today do you think makes that left turn with you?
Because even listening to you, I hear some of that now too with yeah they probably think this is going to be there but
i'm gonna go out of my way to skip that stereotype do it this way yeah and that's what i'll just show
them i ain't gonna lie i think i got an advantage just because like a lot of people just want to
see me win because they respect my come up so i think I do have a lot of people that is taking that that turn with me I think a lot of people want to see me grow and they just want to
see me win and they just gonna support whatever now that's not a hundred percent but I do think
I do have an advantage on that subject for sure I think a lot of people gonna take the turn with
you because those of us who are familiar with your catalog, you've given us that
from the beginning.
Yeah.
Like, yeah,
that might have been
the introduction
to the masses,
but you've always
been rapping.
Yeah, I was looking
at your music.
You got a lot
of fucking music.
Yeah.
It ain't been a bunch of...
I've been rapping
since I was eight years old.
A lot of indie projects too,
right?
You were putting
it out yourself.
Mm-hmm.
Like, indie.
Like, just me
and my daddy just...
Like, I came from
like CD burners.
Rob Markman Yeah, like the spool of CDs.
Rob Markman Popping out.
Rob Markman Niggas down south hustle, yo.
Rob Markman Yeah.
Rob Markman Down south, they hustle.
Niggas down south hustle.
Rob Markman Oh no, for sure. And I come from a hustler too, so
that shit is just embedded in me, for sure. But I think people will take that turn with me too,
because I think people miss that. The way it was fun, the fun booty clapping music, but the tone on
social media lately being like, oh, we sick of hearing that. We sick of hearing that. The way it was fun, the fun booty clapping music, but the tone on social media lately
been like, oh, we sick of hearing that. We sick of hearing that. So I think people will
be excited to hear this album. I think it'll be a fresh sound.
Especially if you can write.
Yeah.
Especially if you can really write and you can really, really rap, then you'll appeal
to everybody.
Right.
You know what I'm saying? You'll appeal to rap purists like, oh shit, shorty go. You
get what I'm saying?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then just the versatility on the album, period.
I get in and get out of these pockets, and it's just like, it's a song for everybody.
You might not like this song, but bitch, I bet I could play a song you like.
Any expectation from the label on what they are looking for when this drops?
Not that they've shared with me.
God, they better not.
Good.
No.
I'm going to be 100% honest.
They're not the ones
putting pressure on me.
I like RCA.
Yeah.
So you ain't really got,
because I'm an R&B man.
Yeah.
A lot of my favorite R&B acts
on RCA.
Yeah.
Skain is family to me.
He's at RCA.
I got good people over at RCA.
So it's like,
I love RCA,
but I got to watch
how they handle a rapper
with attention now.
Yeah, rappers.
Yeah.
Multiple people brought that
to my attention
when I did finally decide to sign with them.
But I looked at it as like, I'm the focus in that lane.
I didn't look at it as a disadvantage.
I was like, well, I'll be the first and they're going to make sure that first go.
They got too much banking on, then we got our female rapper.
We got to make sure she go.
We got too much competition. And it's got our female rapper, we got to make sure she go.
We got too much competition.
They gone.
And it's showing.
The whole building is invested in me.
They fuck with me the long way.
Rob Markman, It looks like it.
It looks that way.
They fuck with me the long way.
My A&Rs, my marketing, everybody be like... Personal phone calls.
Rob Markman, That's important.
Yeah.
Personal relationships.
Like pulling up on me when I'm in the city and stuff. So you said that
the building is a lot of
influential black women.
Yeah.
You think they kind of
door to you?
Like, I want to make sure
my daughter succeeds?
I think so.
Maybe that's why
they go hard for me.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, that might be it
as opposed to
just men that's just
dominating the industry.
This a black girl
and she 23 years old. Yeah. not they not that much older than me they young black girls
so it's not not mothering just no i mean it's um you know that i do feel like it's probably like
you could be 40 years old and be her mother yeah you got a youngest hair too my mama probably like 40 I'm not 20
for y'all to date
no I'm just saying
you can be 40 years old
and be her mother
so you would feel
if you worked at the label
and she came in
as 23
you would be like
yeah
you know what I'm saying
I know what's happening
to make sure
she don't do the fuck shit
because
and no
but I think
that's it too
a lot of people
a lot of them
you would still try
to protect her interest
even if she was trash
you know what I'm saying
and take a father
daughter type role
to make sure
she not just chewed up
out here
I think it's that
for sure
I definitely think
that's for sure
and I think
they been in studio
with me
they know
they mother fucker
work
they been pushed
so yeah
yeah cause I'm looking
at all the songs
you put out
I'm trying to catch a lot of
fucking music yeah and then i thought damn the pressure of the rappers today to have to just
you better be able to have one just yeah a rap fast the ability to make a song quickly go in
project quickly no that i will say that's that that is something that i'm experiencing now with
this what that i did experience with this album.
I wasn't rapping as fast as I usually do.
And I don't know if that's people getting in my head or whatever, but I was so in my
head about it being perfect.
I was like, nah, that's not the bar.
That's not the bar.
I think a 30 down bar is what it takes so long for me to write the verse just because
I want it to be perfect. You to write the verse just because I want
it to be perfect.
You ready for the road?
I am.
I am.
I am.
That's my favorite part about what I do, performing.
I love feeling their reaction and feeding off of their energy and stuff.
And I'm very hands-on with my show, too, to the choreography, the choreographer, the video
wall, what videos is behind each song, the props and stuff.
Everything had to be my bitch.
Y'all are expensive girls.
We is.
We is.
If y'all seen my glam tab, y'all would be like, what the fuck?
I spend too much on glam.
Glam tab.
Glam.
Glam.
No, I'm for real
I know
I know
I'm just
and it take too long
no no
I wanna know
I wanna know
I wanna know now
I wanna know a little bit
I gotta know
I gotta know
I probably spend like
20,000 a month
just on hair
yes you know man
I've talked to that by 12
what's
what's the quote
on glam
on hair
on hair
on hair
on hair
well hair is important now
hair
but that's the thing too
but why they ain't going
to one of the hair people
and getting some deals
to give you the
wave buddy
no yeah
it is very expensive
y'all don't know that
that's just hair
but I think like
female rappers like you gotta look like that they're like But I think female rappers, you got to look like that.
Even when I was independent, they want me to look like I got Beyonce budget, but I'm independent.
Didn't I say that?
Like, damn.
I said that.
They don't appreciate the come up no more.
They so used to artists just getting signed.
You never heard of them before, but they got signed and blew up.
It's no more like, oh, they've been grinding.
Oh, the label reached out.
Now they signed, but I've been knew by her.
So let me ask you a question with regards to what you're saying.
You got to win for that hair to be laid.
Yeah, I see the baby here with the semicircle ass.
I see it.
Do you think, as an artist, just say you, with all your natural talent, if you didn't have
a glam behind you, you would be as appealing?
No.
And that's the pressure.
No.
That's the pressure.
No.
And that's when they're going to take that advance money so that you could take the advance
money and get yourself all dug now so I can present my image to the world.
I got to have a,
I see a little AP.
I got to have my AP on.
I got to have a little something.
Something like regular.
I ain't even got money.
Boy style.
Boy style.
With AP.
You get what I'm saying?
Dog, so you can't just come in there
with no watch on your arm.
She could.
And she could come in and say,
I'm Lotto and I can rap.
I'm a rapper.
I got my words.
But the people not going,
they not going.
But you're naturally pretty, yo.
Yeah, they not going to receive that, bro.
No, no, no, no.
And that's unfortunate.
That's the argument we was having.
Like, you know what?
It's so stupid.
I remember when I first got my first chain, they was like, no. And that's unfortunate. That's the argument. Like, you know what? It's so stupid. I remember when I first got my first chain,
they was like, it's time for another chain.
Wait, wait.
Who said that?
Wait, wait.
Wait, who said that?
In my Instagram comments.
Yes.
You got to go bigger.
You got to give up.
You see what they're doing out there?
I hate this nigga.
What?
You see what they're doing out there?
No, but they just go to show you how much
their appearance is way out of control.
They don't even give a fuck about who can rap.
Reception everything out there to them.
Just start turning the comments off just to fuck with them.
Yo, your talent don't matter.
No comments.
You got to package up the talent.
Yeah.
You have to package up the talent.
You got to get a new chain.
I worked my whole life for this chain.
Chain was mad money.
Where's your chain?
Oh, no.
My chain is more the money than you make all year, nigga.
Fuck where your chain at.
I'm telling you.
See, but even that's another double standard.
Because as a dude, I don't have to have a chain on if I don't want to.
I just go out-wrap all you niggas and that'll be the end of that.
No, it won't.
That's not true.
No, it is them niggas, though.
But they got to be like.
Then show me Kendrick with a bunch of chains on.
No, no, I'm saying like Kendrick, J. Cole.
The two. Keep going. Them niggas. No, I'm saying like Kendrick, J. Cole. The two.
Keep going.
Them niggas.
No, I'm just saying them niggas.
The buck stops right here.
It's not a thing.
No, it's not a thing.
This is my minority, my niggas.
I'm rapping niggas.
But wait.
No, I'm not letting y'all do that.
The buck stops there because them is two of the niggas.
Those is two of the top best apples on the tree.
I'm not disagreeing with you.
But what I'm telling you- Their brains is different.
What I'm telling you is their superior skill is what made people forego the image.
And also, that's part of their image.
That is part of their brand.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That is their image.
That's the brand.
That is their image.
That was part of J. Cole's brand.
Sound like a fucking caveman.
And they fans wouldn't even say no shit like that.
Exactly.
They don't expect them. They fans wouldn't even say no shit like that. Exactly. They don't expect them.
They fans wouldn't even say no shit.
But they came out with a chain on.
I love this talk.
Why wouldn't they fans say something like that?
The Migos is the Migos without the clothes.
Well, Migos, Atlanta culture is different.
Atlanta culture is different.
J. Cole's from North Carolina.
It's right there.
North Carolina culture is different.
It's right.
I'm just saying.
No, no, no.
It's right there.
Hip hop is hip hop. It's not the same. Southern hip hop is southern hip hop. You fuck girls in Atlanta, you fuck girls in North Carolina culture is different. It's right. I'm just saying. No, no, no. It's right there. Hip hop is hip hop.
It's not the same.
Southern hip hop is southern hip hop.
You fuck girls in Atlanta, you fuck girls in North Carolina, stop it.
We don't have to do this right now.
We don't have to do this right now.
Them Charlotte monsters be monsters.
The same way the ATL monsters be monsters.
Why is that?
I'm talking.
Is it because they don't make music for them type of fans?
So them fans is not even.
J. Cole is just a different dude.
I just think him personally.
I think maybe the talent just too undeniable.
And you can't use it.
There ain't no games for it.
Yeah, there you go.
You get back what you put out.
That's why.
The rules ain't different
for them two.
You just get back
what you put out.
So most people succumb
to the rapper starter kit.
I did it.
I took my first publishing check
and went right to get 2 Chainz.
I bust the whole thing down.
I had like 50 grand left.
It was 250. I had no idea what nothing called. Hey, what that thing down, like 50 grand left. It was 250.
I had no idea what nothing cost.
Hey, what that cost?
It was a little change too.
That's 75.
Oh, that's 90.
They both,
give me both.
Now I'm just broke.
And that's what it is.
No, I agree with that.
And I'm just saying the pressure.
But what they teach you early,
what they used to teach you
if they really wanted us
to be better people
was if you're an artist
and a wordsmith, then why would you want to add things to distract people from what they there
for yeah so why would i come in here with all of this beautiful shit on and while you staring at
me you're not really hearing what i'm doing which is the real gift and that's why kendrick don't do
it that's why eminem don't do it that's why j cole don't do it that's why even drake that little
stunt he did the other day
at that Raptors game
with that little million dollar thing
of a jiggy that pendant,
even when he do it,
he just do it the way it's supposed to be done.
But the executives that are giving you that advice,
guess what they not?
The bitches.
I'm following you.
So you want the attention of the opposite sex.
That is a motivating factor.
If I'm a chick,
I just go get in the greatest BBL.
I'm not talking about a girl.
No, you're not.
I'm going to see the doctor.
I'm going to see the doctor
that be killing bitches
but he do the good work.
No, I'm talking about the man.
You got to risk your life.
If you want the ass right,
I'm going to see my man.
I ain't going to put him on blast.
He be killing bitches.
But I'm going to do that.
And now just look at my ass,
hear my words. That sounds horrible, but that's why I'm not to do that and now just look at my ass hear my words
that sounds horrible
but that's why I'm not a girl
but they getting
sick of that though
that shit is playing out now
wait they getting sick of
don't say that
they getting sick of ass
yeah the BBL
I think they starting
to make ass things
I think it was a wave
cool like
every pretty bitch
with a BBL
was rapping
and it was like
perceived well
received well
but now
Coily Ray ruined it
that damn Coily Ray ruined it. That damn Coily Ray.
Ah,
fuck.
No,
no.
No,
why you playing club?
I love Coily Ray.
Because people looking for more now.
There you go.
What else you got?
The distractions,
it's still a part of the package.
I definitely agree.
Like,
that's not going to go nowhere.
But people still,
they holding the music accountable as well now.
Mm-hmm.
What you want to do outside of the music? Is there pressure to have all these different
brand deals outside of rapping and be with them over here and have a happy meal and just
anything?
Yeah, just because I don't want to rap forever.
How long do you want to rap?
I don't know. I think it's just going to be like a vibe thing. I check out when I check
out. I'm not
gonna drive my
I'm not gonna let this
shit drive me crazy
I'm gonna be Rihanna
and get that money
and check out
and drop a baby
nah
I like it
nah
gunshot
no kids right
no kids
but
but later
when you
yeah
see and that's the thing
even when they come in
like they have a clear idea of what finality looks like.
Yeah.
Now.
Now, today.
That's so beautiful.
Nigga, she just said Rihanna.
Yeah, somebody...
You got role models you can follow.
Hopefully, God willing,
you can follow the footsteps
that have been placed in front of you
via Rihanna, via fucking...
Even Queen Latifah, Beyonce,
whoever the case may be,
you can follow those paths.
You know what I'm saying?
Especially if you're
an attractive lady,
you can follow those paths.
You can follow footsteps.
And you personable?
Damn, Lotto, man.
I'm mad that you came late
and that you got to run
and that you got mad shit to do.
Because we fuck with you up here.
We do.
It's a flight thing.
I know.
I would come kick it
with a pot of tequila
and keep running my mouth
and get in trouble
for it later
yeah that's some real shit
right
like fuck all this
that's what we want
you know what I mean
I just want to make
and first of all
the label's supposed
to change that flight
there's more flights
we going on tour
we hitting the road
we got an album coming
I ain't had time for that
rushing to a fucking airport
so what do you
do you have an idea
of what you want to do next?
Like,
I know I want to start
my own label
and I want to sign
female rappers
like young talent,
young female rapper talent.
You're not going to give them
the same hair budget,
are you?
Never.
I mean,
hopefully I'm rich by then
and I can.
Hey,
not for all of them.
You ain't giving them
20 out to be.
I ain't going to have
no hundred artists on my roster,
but I be seeing some girls that I could see, you know?
Oh, that's like what Jocelyn's doing.
Stamping.
No.
She's signing to her.
You watch the show?
Don't do that.
That's my show.
No, I don't watch your show.
I see the clips.
Oh, it's so great.
All right, fine.
This ain't that.
All right, so we want to get in the, all right,
yo, that shit is just the mindset
when I'm listening to her
she got both her parents
in her life
so that's great right
but dad
she ain't got to say no more
about dad
I kind of know about dad
and I was just about to say
I know about dad
but my dad was a heavy
heavy influence
in where I'm at
no for sure
from the hustling standpoint
for
rapping standpoint
he had me around rappers
yeah
and I was already
a literary
language arts genius
so now it's just
a marriage made in heaven
I feel like that
about my son
he raps
my son raps
he put out a little snippet
the other day
first bar in the song
only family I ever got
is my mom and my
I'm like wait a minute
wait a minute
wait a minute
wait a minute
wait a minute dog
I'm like yo
get my car back
I'm going to get my car
get my fucking car back
Paid for college
Bought the car
Oh sheek
But I laugh at that right
Because
You get the same type of shit
That's the rapper I was
So it's funny
When you on the other end of it now
Like wait
I never thought about
How my family received
The things I was saying
And some of that shit
Really was just my bullshit perspective
You're dumbass 21 year old brain Yeah have you gone through that where you throw some introspective shit
in the rhyme and now it's causing like real life ramifications boyfriend ex-boyfriend family member
friend parent yeah friend yeah yeah if people just gotta listen to my shit like it's not gonna be in freaky girl you know what
i'm saying you gotta go in depth like the album you have to listen to the album like the songs
on the album don't just pay attention to a single and look for that shit i wanted to introduce you
to your super gremlin freestyle i was playing it on the way here see i look for shit like that
and on the singles and shit while i know it's important yeah it's the way here. See, I look for shit like that. And on the singles and shit, while I know it's important,
it's the other shit that
is what get a nigga.
But that's why I do both
because I got to do this.
I can't not do this
if I want to, you know,
be one of them top girls.
But I'm going to do both
so when I pull up to a motherfucker,
when I pull up on motherfuckers like you,
you like,
I'll fuck with you.
Oh, they tried to kill you for the sample thing too.
Yeah.
Yo, they been.
They be on my ass.
I'm not going to like.
No, no.
They been on my ass.
The fans tried to kill you for a sample?
Like, just like, I wouldn't call them fans, just social media.
Oh, okay.
For, I said when I did, you talking about Big Energy.
Yeah.
Yeah, when I did, I was sitting with Nessa and I was like, she you talking about Big Energy yeah when I did
I was sitting with Nessa
and I was like
she was asking about
yeah shout out to Nessa
I love her
she was asking about
how did Big Energy come about
and I was being honest
because fuck media training
how'd you play it
oh I think I know the story
yeah the Mariah joint right
yeah
they was like
so did you
you know when you when they played the beat, did you?
And I was like, you know, it felt nostalgic.
I'll say it felt nostalgic, but I didn't put one and two and two together.
We talking about it here and it's like, she's 23, yo.
Yeah.
But then I went and looked it up and I was like, the song was either made the year I
was born or before I was born.
And I was like, hands up, don't shoot.
What the fuck?
People don't look at it that way.
I just like,
how I'm getting dragged
for being honest.
At least I'm not
that cap ass bitch
that get up there
and act like I know
and then Nessa would've asked me,
so,
da da da da da,
I'd be like,
what else about that album
and you'd be like,
uh.
Yeah,
you know what I'm saying?
Like,
I would rather be 100
and I can't trip myself up
if I'm being honest.
I said it felt nostalgic. I thought rather be 100 and I can't trip myself up if I'm being honest. I like that.
I said it felt nostalgic.
I thought that was good.
I thought that was...
You sound like sometimes you took some media training or you went into the little corner
office at the label and they had to get into your...
No, I think it just...
Or you just been around real niggas all your life?
Yeah, I just been...
You were on TV too, right?
Yeah, I was on TV.
TV, just doing it for a long time.
Trial by fire.
I've been doing interviews since I was eight years old,
raised by real niggas.
And you shut up when the police come.
Yeah.
Talk to them.
Who?
The biggest.
I don't even.
The biggest.
Sir, I'm sorry, sir.
I just walked out here.
I don't know.
I just got dropped off the school bus.

I'm 12, sir.
I just want to go
kick my ball down the street.
Can I have my book bag

That's on God.
I'm good.
So what do you do
when you're away from Lotto
and all this glitz and glam?
What's soul-serving for you?
What shows you watching?
What you get into?
I love Snowfall.
That's my shit.
I love Snowfall.
Did you like the last episode
with the tiger and all that?
Wait, don't tell me
because I haven't seen...
She's trying to put an album out.
Yeah, that too.
That too.
I haven't seen...
I think I've seen the first three
of season four.
A lot of people didn't like the last episode as well.
I'll leave it for you.
Yeah, I got to go see it now.
Snowfall.
I shop.
I got to stop shopping.
Got to stop shopping.
You seem like you shop.
Know why I said that?
And I hate to profile people, but I do it a lot.
I know you was running around.
You got a flight to catch.
You mad busy and shit.
And you came in here
and you tried to look like down,
but it's right.
You can tell the dress down.
She tried to dress down something.
I'm traveling today.
I'm traveling.
But it's still, yeah.
How many days you been here?
Just today.
Oh, yeah.
I just got here.
I got here like midnight last night.
Y'all did Bergdorf's?
So shopping, you said Bergdorf.
Bergdorf is where the rich people be shopping at.
Oh, tell me.
No, don't tell me.
I just said I'm going to stop.
Wait, so now I'll ask, let me just ask you some cliche shit that me and the niggas be
arguing about when there's no girls around.
Could you date a broke nigga right now? No, I love the honesty. Yeah, not me neither girl
23 no. Yes. It's no what you gotta do with 23 and I'm having this shit. That's more of a reason not to date
I'm sorry. No he be wanting y'all to date broke niggas no I don't why you say I'm so confused
it's the big
it's the big lotto
how you think the big
got in front of her
how you think the big
got there
by dating broke niggas
you piece of shit
no no no
I have before
but now that I got it
I'm not finna take care
of no nigga at 23
and then it's
an ego thing too
because like
when I was in a relationship
and I started like
I was gaining a little more I started like I was gaining
a little more fame
and stuff
and the
he couldn't take it
it became an ego thing
so I really think
it's deeper than
girls just not wanting to
it's like men
can't even handle it anyways
at 23
she has all
of the female answers
at 23
well yeah
fucking Lil Kim
and Foxy Brown
everybody else
been putting in records
for a million years.
What do you think
was going to happen?
No, the one with...
This is what my son...
I feel bad for my son.
My son would be 21 years old.
He came back
like 23-year-old
talking this shit.
Nigga, no 23-year-old
outside of the league.
It's no diss to broke niggas,
you know what I'm saying?
But it is.
Everybody, all the rich niggas, know what I'm saying but it is everybody
all the rich niggas
will
not everybody
unless you was born into money
you was broke before
you know what I'm saying
dog
don't let him shame you
I'm not
don't let him shame you
you just tell the niggas
to get their money up
yeah I think it's just
I was broke before too
like you just gotta
work harder
shut up
tell him work harder please
what
yo tell her
you wasn't broke I wasn't like I my parents would Work harder. Shut up. Tell him work harder, please. Yo, tell her.
You wasn't broke.
I wasn't.
Like, my parents were.
I'm just saying.
Daddy wasn't broke.
No, it was times for sure.
My daddy a husband.
So we had times where we ate.
Yes.
Ramen noodles, we had times where we went to Ruth Chris.
It was, you know.
It's a struggle.
It's the game.
Yeah.
I get it.
But by the time I was an adult no I ain't been broke
alright give me the minimum
what a nigga can make
give me the floor
yeah yeah yeah
you gotta make
give me entry level
to what it takes
I mean
I'm so salacious right now
I can't put like
a dollar on it
but I would say like
he gotta at least
match me
like if we don't
have the same income
if we don't have she just said If we don't have the same income
She just said she spent 20k a month on her hair
She did not say that
She did not say that
She said her hair budget
That is true
You're right
What I'm saying is this
I want you to shoot for the stars
Right?
Young black woman
You seem super duper dope
No they didn't
She ain't gotta shoot
What I'm saying is fam Outside of some NBA niggas right? Young black woman. You seem super duper dope. No, they didn't. She ain't got a shoe. No,

Baby, I'm queen of humbling niggas, for sure.
Slide in my DM, I will humble your ass.
But why?
Because, no.
Why do you think you can even...
I don't even like how your face runs up.
That energy she just got into.
They feel so entitled, baby.
I know your game plan. You see me,
fresh face, young
female in the industry, ain't been attached
to no nigga. You want me to be attached to
you so you can go up when I go

Like, yeah, no, baby, I know you want that shit.
What is he supposed to want?
That's what he's supposed to want.
Nah, that sound like a vibe.

He don't know you yet.
Wait, no, no, wait.
So he saw it in your DM.

Oh, pull-up.

That's the first...
That's the opening line, pull-up?
Yeah, you can't.
Y'all, these niggas be crazy.
And then celebrity niggas be crazy. And then,
then celebrity niggas love
just putting the emoji.

You can't retweet it?
You want me to respond

I done heard my brother tell them lies my whole life, nigga.
Man, they be having a game.
So it sound like a nigga just got to catch you in person.
My nigga already caught me.
I'm out the way, out the mix.
But was it in person?
It wasn't from an emoji?
Yeah, it was in person for sure.
Yeah, not an emoji.

I want to do like an extended or like deluxe type thing.
Pretty, probably pretty soon after.
No, no, no.
I'm talking about a real project.
Not deluxe.
Like a real project.
I record like a motherfucker.
I'm going to take a cool month vacation after this for sure for my mental.
But after that, I'm back in the studio.
Oh, vacay pics to you bitches now oh yeah
and then i'm about to serve them these trip pics yo the things y'all do with trip pics yo
yeah they hoard them for the next six months oh no you about i'm gonna be playing my album
on the yacht and stuff like yeah one of them yachts too not the little tooth to be playing my album on the yacht and stuff. Like, yeah. One of them yachts, too. Not the little two-seater shit I was on.
Not the little natural liberty boat.
Not the little small shit.
Some shit with some room.
You eat breakfast.
Not off the little cooler I had.
Some stuff.
So probably like next year.
I would say when you're coming back here, but you about to be busy.
Like, you about to take off.
And you already said you don't like niggas to get in early on you and then be there for the rise.
No, that's not what I said.
Like, can we be there for the rise of Lotto?
Like, we want to say Lotto's a friend of the show.
But that mean you'll come back?
I love New York, though.
I'll come back.
I've been saying that I'm going to come back here when I don't have work, though, but I'll squeeze y'all.
I ain't never been outside in New York.
That's what I'm saying.
Girl.
That's what I'm saying.
I really love New York.
Like, I haven't recorded here.
Every time I'm here, like, it's just sleepy, press, like, in and out.
I don't like how the record industry has reduced New York to that.
You know why, though?
That's corny.
Everybody left.
Where the fucking artists?
Everybody left.
Yeah.
New York used to be the home of the artists.
My whole label, all my A&Rs lived in New York, and they all live in LA now.
There you go.
Yo, you got to relax.
All my 17 A&Rs.
Nah, you know, she helping to spread this narrative that New York is over and quiet.
But it's true, though.
Like, everybody used to record here.
My label be like, recording in New York?
What?
What you mean?
Well, that was stupid, too, how they had to hold on the studios.
And back to the point, the label's at it.
The label's got the blogs now.
Whatever. But I do think that you
and some of the other newer,
hotter,
doper acts
should come to New York
just to catch a...
Just to catch a vibe.
Yeah, I think the culture here
is just so inspiring.
And you give that energy.
Like, she gives New York...
Like, see how she came in?
She said,
in my past life,
I was from New York or whatever.
See, look, even that face
that she just...
No, you ain't hear the voice. I was from New York or whatever. You, look at even that face that she just, come on. No, you ain't hear the voice.
I was from New York or whatever.
You know what I mean?
No, but listen, she came in here.
She sat down and kicked it with like the mid-child.
No one from nowhere.
That's true.
She was cool.
Yeah.
Girl, don't come here and be cool.
For real?
Cool.
What they be doing with y'all?
They be cussing y'all out?
No.
No.
Most of the girls like me.
I seen you talking about female rappers.
No, they be.
I do talk about the female rappers. Yeah, I be seeing. But I don't know all the rappers though. Yeah I seen you talking about female rappers. I do talk about the female rappers.
Yeah, I be seeing that.
But I talk about all the rappers, though.
Yeah, you do.
All the rappers.
Yeah, you just don't fuck with who you don't fuck with.
That's it.
I was scared.
I was like, ooh, they want me to go where?
No, no.
See, I was late to the party.
By the time I go on, they was like, you didn't know about that?
I was like, oh, brother.
See, I'm a music lover. If you a music lover music lover you should just share it not bully somebody because you don't know it like welcome
me bitch fuck so i was one of them but i was shocked to see like the more i just started
digging and doing research like all right it looks good and she's still rapping she hasn't
sex she hasn't compromised the rapping yet yeah every time i check in yeah and she's still rapping. She hasn't sex. She hasn't compromised the rapping yet.
Every time I check in.
Yeah.
And that's where I be losing hope with.
So I just got to root for the flow Millie's and the rhapsody's and just the
girls that prioritize rapping.
Cause I know you're going to,
you're going to go through,
you're going to get to a lot of points where somebody is going to try to make
you compromise.
Or the money.
I'm sure it's happened already.
Yeah.
I was about to say that.
It ain't nothing that I'm not experiencing already.
I just, at least if I'm doing a song that might not be so rappy or a feature that might
not be so rappy, at least I'm like, nah, that verse not going to be it until I have a punchline
or two incorporated in it.
Or even if I give you that song, I could give you three more real rappy songs.
You know what I'm saying?
So it's a real diverse project.
Off mic, I'm going to ask you if you told your man when that nigga ain't want to clear the record.
Off mic, off mic, off mic, off mic, off mic.
I just got it.
I just got it.
I got it.
She's going on the road.
We won't see her again, guys.
Nah.
She's out of here.
Yeah.
Maybe 2023 sometime.
No, don't say that.
Yeah.
Don't say that.
I'm still me.
Or maybe we'll see her on the road.
We're going on the road too.
Yeah, we're going on the road.
We might bump into her somewhere.
Maybe we'll do it that way.
Yeah.
But it's going to hurt me if we don't see you again.
No, y'all going to see me again.
Y'all going to see me again.
Then I'm going to feel like it's just like the label treated us like, I'm home over.
I'm going to be sad.
I'm going to be sad.
Don't let them treat us like that.
I'm not going to let them treat y treat us like that I'm not gonna let

Like, they just going to tell you, like, bitch, I don't like you.
Yo, there's this nasty run of media niggas
that move like that
and I guess maybe
that is my perception
but nah
I don't think
it's like a rude thing though
it's not a negative
or a rude thing
it's just like

that's true
I never do
and I'm still dealing with people not knowing that's why when you was like you really rap I was like already accepted. Yeah, but I guess they don't know. They don't know. How would Lotto know? That's true. I never deal with Lotto
saying I'm a fan.
And I'm still dealing
with people not knowing.
That's why when you was like,
you really rap,
I was like,
I appreciate the fact
that you know that.
It's so weird

just a little round of applause
definitely oh my god Lotto was great
thank you to Lotto's team
this scary nigga standing in the corner
did we handle it right it was good
our guy right there.
Good.
Great interview.
Yeah, shout out to Lotto.
She was dope.
Yeah.
She was dope.
She's gained an even bigger fan out of me.
Yeah, well, she let us hear some of the songs she was talking about.
Yeah.
That was a plus for me that the songs were good and that the label was putting her in
a position to when I could hear it in the music.
And she's great.
But I'm done hearing about, don't come up here and trick me with all the fucking smoke mirrors, makeup bullshit.
Like, I want to know who you are as a person.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't care about your music, yo.
You'll catch one.
You'll miss one.
You'll be dope.
Have a good album.
You'll have a bad album.
You'll have fucking turmoil.
How do you get out?
All of that's great.
But who are you? So when she get in the, you have a bad album, you'll have fucking turmoil, how do you get out? Oh, that's great, but who are you?
So when she get in the, yo, I had both my parents.
First thing I heard, she didn't say it like that,
but that's the first thing I heard.
No, she said, she opened up with, yo, my dad was a hustler
and I've been around rap my whole life.
She, he had all his cars.
The rapper niggas was borrowing his cars for their videos.
That told me everything.
Yeah.
You set the stage right there.
But even outside of that,
and you're right,
but like her energy,
I know energy is a buzzword
right now,
but she ain't no,
this is a room full of men.
Nine to eight niggas.
And she felt right out.
She ain't no nobody.
Sat down, had a blast,
waved off the label saying,
hey, maybe we got to wrap it up.
Maybe we got to flight the cat. Nah, I'm
chilling. That's
great. That's great. I'm
happy for her. And I hope that she does
well. I hope that she don't succumb
to some of this. I hate that social media has
to have such a presence, such
real estate in our
new artist's brains. But she said that
too. Like, yo, I'm 23. Like, social
media is what we do.
And it was funny
because we start
we had that same conversation
before she even got here.
You know what I'm saying?
Like that's literally
what happens.
They grew up
in the social media era
it's normal to them.
To them take your problems
right to the social media.
To the black screen
as you would say.
That's every day for them.
So for her to turn it off
is a lot.
But I think she'll get it though.
That's true.
Well, Pusha T took his problems
to a different place.
Yes, he did.
Da-da-da-da-da.
Segway.
You hear Parks with a little Segway?
Hey, he got the Segway out.
What the hell's going on out here?
What was his beef though?
Nothing.
He just got it.
Fish.
He just got a check from somewhere else.
No, fish not being square.
Nah, honestly, he smoked that.
He did?
He smoked that.
Like, I could see where...
Push is just great, yo.
I hate to...
Wow.
Wow.
Like, we never really thought about why it's square.
How did he get thought-provoking in a chicken sandwich disc?
Fish sandwich disc.
You got a scale bar off of there?
How do you get lyrical in an Arby's
track? Hood lyrics.
Then they can start talking about fish scale
from an Arby's sandwich.
Nah, it's great. Culture.
Oh, man. Culture.
Arby's, I might have to go and cop
something from over there.
And it's funnier because he co-wrote the
McDonald's thing. That's how he started off.
I see.
The first line.
Press releases.
Yo, he didn't get enough money from the McDonald's.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Nah.
I'm going to Arby's now.
Yeah, you ain't do me right.
Mickey D, sorry.
What's the splits?
You wanted to put all your fucking eggs in all day breakfast.
You left me over here.
You wanted to fucking bring the McRib back.
Oh, man.
Thought I was your rib.
Oh, come on, drum roll me up.
All right, I like it, though.
Let's continue the trend.
Give me a...
I want to diss
the Burger King mascot.
I don't really fuck with him.
We need Ross to come out now.
Honestly.
Ross got to give us one now.
Honestly, I feel like
the Burger King writing room
or the creative team,
when they had to come up with
like
how the fuck was he supposed
to go against
fuck Ronald McDonald
you see that goofy looking
nigga Burger King
came up with
he can't even go against
Flo from
Progressive
like he gotta be
for Burger King
to be so long tenured
he's gotta be the worst mascot
right there with the
son's mascot yeah yeah wait we right there with the son's mascot
yeah yeah wait we don't like the son's mascot we're not doing this right now
or the owner of the sun oh yeah a lot going on if you want to talk about it don't get it started
on the son's mascot or my dad it should my dad get together oh i didn't even realize there was
a problem with the son's mascot.
That was one of the
him and Charlotte was
like the two popular
mascots.
I ain't know.
Hey, no worries.
Shout out to Pusha T.
Congratulations.
Keeping hip hop alive.
Distant fish sandwiches.

Griselda's going on tour.
I know that's made me not.
Clap it up.
Round of applause.
Shout out to them.
If you've been listening to any of the, well, any of the news.
Ain't really been too much news on the rumor wire.
Shout out to them at Euro Tour.
They out of here.
They out of here.
I wonder if they're staying on the same floor.
I wonder if they asked for their rooms to be located near each other.
I wonder if they asked for connecting rooms. be located near each other. I wonder if they ask for connecting rooms.
Probably not.
That's family, man.
You say that, that means absolutely nothing
to me. What do you mean when you say that?
We're going to figure it out.
You always figure it out with your family?
Yeah, eventually.
Everybody you know, you think they always figure it out
with their family? Sometimes not.
How many times? Just some?
Sometimes not.
More just some.
Usually what happens when they don't is someone passes away and then they regret not working it out.
That's fine.
But they still don't figure it out though.
Yo, is it a Griselda tour or a Benny tour?
It's all of them.
I saw a Griselda tour.
I saw all of the members of Griselda going on the road.
This might be just a Benny run. I saw a Griselda tour. I saw all of the members of Griselda going on the road. This might be just a Benny run, but I saw a Griselda tour with all three members.
So congratulations to them.
Can't wait to see.
What else?
What else?
What else?
What else?
Apple had an outage.
They went down.
I only know that because I was at the car wash trying to get to American Dream, as if I don't know the directions to American Dream.
But I've never been there.
bar wash trying to get to American Dream as if I don't know the directions to American Dream,
but I've never been there.
So I was trying to type in one American Dream way,
blah, blah, blah, New Jersey, East Rutherford,
whatever the fuck it is,
and they were telling me that it didn't exist.
Oh, shit.
It didn't even exist.
So I thought that American Dream was so ill
that they paid to have their shit off of GPS.
I never went to, yo, Apple's broke until I asked somebody else to pull it up.
And they couldn't pull it up.
No, I didn't ask Ice.
Ice was in Appleville.
But then you couldn't even pull up nothing that started with an A in the GPS, in maps, yesterday.
Everything with an A was obsolete.
Could have typed in Android
why would I do that
I'd rather not know
how to get there
than go get the Android
I hit the navigation feature
on my Maybach
and it sent me right
where I needed to be
gotcha
I'd rather just get lost
like yes
thank god
thank god for a real navigation
nah all that shit
went down though
everything
from
work harder podcasts music iMessage for a real navigation. Nah, all that shit went down though. Everything.
Work harder.
Podcast, music, iMessage,
everything was down.
Apple got to work harder.
Yeah, yeah.
Buy more server.
Ice for you, okay?
Buy more server.
I saw people complaining,
yo, my Apple music not working.
Of course, I took that time to laugh.
Oh, I warned you niggas about depending on streaming.
Here we are.
I was jamming.
Yeah.
With all my purchased library.
Yo, how's it working for you?
Because I own all these files.
But anyway, yeah.
As I keep telling y'all, these widespread outages are not a coincidence.
These niggas are getting hacked.
Not Apple selling to people data.
Yeah. Not a good to people data. Yeah.
Not a good old app.
Nigga, they all do it.
Oh, man.
Apple ain't nowhere
above the rest of them.
All of these companies
are selling your data.
Every last one of them.
Which is a given,
which is why I'm still
on the American Dream
part of this conversation.
I don't know what that is.
What?
American dream.
It's a new mall.
So they opened a giant mall in East Rutherford, New Jersey,
right by where the Giants used to.
Meadowlands.
By Meadowlands.
And Jersey is like mall capital of the world.
So there's always a new something popping up.
And I always plan to decide when they first drop.
When Elizabeth outlets came, when that new shit down Palisade,
whatever that shit is.
So this was more the same for me. Why would y'all put a big
ass mall right there? Cool.
And anytime I heard people speak about it,
they always spoke about the amusement park
side of this. There's like rides.
There's rides there.
There's rides, there's like an indoor pool.
You want to bring your kids.
That's all I ever heard.
So it's like the, where was that one? Ohio
or something like that
They had all that
Yeah
Oh in Minnesota
Minnesota
They were shooting for us
Yeah
Right so
Same company
Why would I ever go there?
Anytime I drive by
It looks man congested
And when it first opened
Everybody was over there
It was PPP loans
It was off
Niggas were spending money
I'm like I'm not going
Anywhere near there
But
It was poorly explained to me
Poorly poorly explained to me.
Poorly, poorly explained.
It's not just a mall.
It's like if Disney would have put a mall.
This is
$6 billion worth of mall.
It's a $6 billion
dollar mall.
I went in there and I didn't make it to the mall.
Like the one entry-long hallway from valet which I guess is the luxury side with Louis Vuitton and Saks and all that
shit that's not the mall and it's the size of a mall a mall I was tired by the time I tried to
get to the mall but anyway past, past that, everything is beautiful.
Everything looks like an art exhibit.
Okay.
I'm talking about from the seating areas to water fountains to carpet to the restroom.
They didn't, it looked like $6 billion was spent.
So it was women in there.
I'm sure.
Like they brought back meeting women in a mall.
I know that sounds foolish, but upon entry, there were groups of women walking around.
As a grown man, when was the last time you just went somewhere and there was groups of women walking around where you could say something?
You could say, hey!
A brunch party, right?
An idea you'd act like you want to talk to girls at a brunch party.
It'd spit in your face.
You interrupted breakfast with me and my friends. You see I'm talking to my friends. You see I'm eating right now. I'm coming here to talk to girls at a brunch party. It's spitting in your face. You interrupted breakfast with me and my friends.
You see I'm talking to my friends.
You see I'm eating right now.
I'm coming here to talk to you.
You know what?
You got it.
You got it wrong at brunch parties, man.
Well, you go to the one where that nigga got shot in the head, right?
Yeah.
Outside.
Anyway.
Yeah, beautiful mall.
I'm just mad that nobody told me I was going to the wrong mall.
I was going to the wrong mall.
Shout out to Garden State.
You'll never see me again.
You'll never see me again at Garden State.

My mom went and came back.
Rave reviews.
A few other people came back.

It's there.
And I know our African audience
doesn't care about this.
What else is important?
We got Pusha T.
We did Meg.

Jamal Crawford retired.
Wow.
Round of applause.

And when I was talking shit to him...
50, not 40.
50. I was talking shit. This was when he was talking shit to him. 50, not 40. 50.
I was talking shit.
This was when he was on the Knicks.
We was running around in Seattle
and I was talking shit like,
if he was better,
we'd get somewhere.
Man, niggas better.
You just talk shit to niggas
that you know are superior
at something.
Right?
And he was like,

Round of applause.
Now we'll never, we don't have to claim these kids at all.
Like, this is awesome.
The women have to find another route now to get us to be good dads.
Hey, they can't just send a little Maury envelope.
Yo, somehow, somehow that Maury envelope made a lot of y'all step up to the plate.
I'm so confused.
Yo, y'all answered the Maury subpoena when it came in the mail.
And the consequence could have been a whole kid.
You niggas is crazy.
Hey, Maury would have never seen me.
They had to speak on my likeness.
Hey, is this Joe's kid?
Is Joe here, nigga?
You'd have been on the screen. A little picture on the screen.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It would have been a still shot of me.
Sorry, buddy.
You have to chase me for this DNA
test like the rest of them.
It's a joke!
I'm joking.
Man, a little louder than that. There we go. It's a joke. I hate when. Damn, a little louder than that.
Come on.
There we go.
It's a joke.
I hate when I do a real good joke and then y'all get quiet.
Then it makes it not a joke.

Still on sports.
Did y'all see
the dude that purchased
Tom Brady's
last touchdown football
before he retired
for 500 grand
and now he's unretired
and coming back.
So what'd he do?
Stuck with the football.
Paid 500 grand for
nothing.
Not for nothing.
That's still got to be of value, just not that much value.
They don't have to be.
What you think that value going to be, man?
He come back and throw for 20, 30 touchdowns this season.
He come back and throw for 37 more this year than what?
That football's worth nothing.
Caca.
And then Tom Brady reached out on Twitter using his Bitcoin company.
He's like, yo,
let's do something for this guy. We're going to donate a Bitcoin to the charity of his
choice. Oh, hell no. Excuse me.
I see that's Tom Brady's
little line. I see that's
Tom Brady's little line that he pulls.
A charity of
your choice. No, it's me. I'm the charity.
I'm going to have my T9

I had my little pump it up.
Them niggas came.
We flip styles.

Then they started cutting pump it up off the flip side.
Wait, nah, hold up, man.
That was the setback of 03. Pump it up in the flip side. Wait, nah, hold up, man. That was the setback at 03.
Pump It Up in the flip side?

So is Viv.
So is who?
Oh, Viv.
Oh, Viv is fine. What?
Oh, Viv is fine.
Yo, can we do...
We got to wrap this up.
Oh, Viv is fine, man.
But we got to do a pod about Michael Ealy, yo.
Yo.
Dog, I have been saying this.
Ish, take it away.
Ish Ealy.
Nah, because he gave me Ish vibes.
Like, when Michael Ealy pop up drinking wine,
talk about art with your queen, punch him right in the face.
No.
Yeah.
I don't know how that nigga be giving you the soft voice.

He give you that.
Uncle Phil went up.
Nigga paid 20 for the paint.
Wait.
Hey, Michael Ealy got 15?
Guess what, nigga?
I got 20.
See why you got to be rich?
Because these niggas have come
to try to play them games.
The rich niggas are still your bitch.
Wait, and then popped up at the party.
That's my vibe.
The tracker worked.
He popped up at the party and said,
yo, I know your style, right?
Target those up
and coming on
where they at now
where's Tammy and Joseph
yeah yeah yeah
I like Uncle Phil
I like this
I like it

if I'm vid
fuck Michael Healy
I might boycott
fam that better not happen
stop ish
you know Jeff
we're gonna handle that
real quick
but that's why I love this
Jeff we're gonna wrap
that shit up
but that's why I love this storyline
because in beautiful comedy,
Fresh Prince of Bel-Air world,
why did none of us think
that niggas was on fine ass on Viv, yo?
Both of them.
Yeah, but this one got them beat.
I know there was that old argument in hip hop
about, oh my God, the new on Viv
versus the old on Viv. Well, let me tell you God, the new on Viv versus the old on Viv.
Well, let me tell you something.
Remix on Viv.
Yeah.
The new new on Viv.
She ain't playing with him.
Not at all.
Jazzy Jeff in there fucking looking for samples in the crate.
Nah, they did this.
They did this.
And Jeffrey's a G.
Oh, no.
Y'all look.
So if Michael Ealy hit it, it would give us some realism.
Hey. Of today's society
yo wait
not for nothing
if Michael Ealy
hit it
remember in
Fresh Prince
they had that
little baby
Nikki come out
I'm just saying
I'm just saying
in Fresh Prince
they had what
the little
adopted boy
named Nikki
the little boy
that's what I was
telling him
I stopped watching look man I remember him though you want to give it some realism right boy good thing I wasn't an adult watching fucking different strokes man
how y'all get these black kids nobody ever said that. I don't know if they adopted Willis or them. Yeah. Like them. All right.
Let me say that.
Hey, hey.
Madonna did it.
Yo.
Oh, man.
This nigga's stupid, yo.
How y'all get Willis or them?
What's wrong with you, dog?
Well, let's just go, yo.
Because I could stay on this forever.
They abandoned and adopted two black niggas
and they just came in
well behaved.
Or the bad that they tried
to tell us was bad
is what was the bad
on the different strokes, right?
Like if Mr. Drummond
adopted some kids from the hood
who were without an opportunity
and put them in that house
with his 90 yearyear-old ass
and that white sister,
they would be running
the market.
That nigga,
Phil would have a heart attack.
That dumbass Steve
would have changed that.
And the world is blue, nigga.
Yo, that's not,
yo, you stupid, yo.
Stupid ass Willis. You the big brother. You wasn't even sneaking no fine stupid, yo. Stupid-ass Willis.
You the big brother.
You wasn't even sneaking
no fine chicks in there.
You wasn't doing nothing.
Willis was a bum, yo.
Let's get with the...
What happened?
You know, our white girl lover here.
You know, our resident white girl lover here you know our resident white girl lover ish ish ish that ish LLC

Another run, nigga we got rich off the right vision
To get the squares from here to there was a life mission
I planned it and all I had was a flight ticket When I landed, I took advantage of the price difference
Listen, nigga, I got a hand that can write scriptures
But y'all take the stand and land me in tight fences
Fuck a life sentence, pray God hand me the right riches
And turn this one brick to a family of white bitches
These the results you get when you the reason the culture shift
Don't believe in that vulture shit, had to feed my associates
I make sure everybody eat, yeah I think like a socialist
Million dollar empire from a piece of a broken brick
You know these hoes ain't shit, so I cheat and don't commit
I'm rich, I just can't go to sleep with a broken bitch
Loaded fifth, press a button and the scope focus quick
And the clip longer than the script from a motion pic
I sold dope to a fiend while she pregnant?
Emotionless, I'm not a caseworker
That's not a reason I sold this shit
Who cared I wore hand-me-downs too big for my clothes to fit?
Who cried for me when my relatives stole from me for a hit?
Look, these lames still caught up
Cause my name's still brought up in Top 5 Convo
From Langfield to Gainesville floor
I remember vividly trappin' with my toast cock
Baggin' up in dope spots Junkies on the floor
These niggas ain't real as me And it ain't a close shot
I don't fuck with no ops Burying them all
Million dollar tendencies All I do is show stop
Track the trailer coke drops I done seen it all
I'm ballin' till infinity Catch me at the boat dock We ain't boughtin' no yachts
Just a low and raw I remember vividly What you got for us Ish? Dude's name is Maverick Sabre.
Song is Fallen. But you're dangerous in love How did I end up with your taste again?
Now when we speak, something always follows
In your bed tomorrow
And who, does nothing but what there's me and you
I hope gravity waits cause I'm falling
I'm falling
I'm falling
I'm falling
I don't know how this could be
I'm falling, I don't know how to stop myself falling
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling
I don't know how to stop myself falling
You're still a mystery, maybe it's mine Maybe this one, our backing on heaven I think we can do better
Don't you pick up the phone Unless it's for real
Darling say what you mean Cause I'm falling, I'm falling, I don't know how to stop myself
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling
I don't know how to stop myself
When it don't make sense, why does it make me want
Give it one more chance, like I need another round
Ooh, it's always got me in the wrong
And I just keep on falling
I'm falling, I'm falling
I'm falling, I don't know how to save myself
I'm falling, I'm falling
I'm falling, I don't know how to stop myself from falling down, down
Don't know how to stop myself from falling down
Don't know how to stop myself from falling down, down Don't know how to stop myself from falling down It's Falling by Maverick Sabre.

I'm thinking of Sabre.

Oh, no, no, I'm chilling.
You chilling.
Good?
No, I'm good now.
I'm good now. Hey.
Yo, no, there's a fuck if you niggas trying to be outside, nigga.
Hey, man.
Hey.
Yo, this is why I can't listen to the young niggas, yo.
They'll put that young nigga energy in you.
You go outside and fucking shoot somebody by mistake.
Get your face clocked up.
You heard this side of the story, but this shit was fun.
Listen, no.
The universe is funny because, and this record, if you know, you know.
But anyway, the universe put me in the same exact situation one year later.
See how I would handle it.
You're doing better.
Progressive.
Yeah. situation one year later see how I would handle it. Progressive. Only gave him a little suck my dick
to the album and then chilled out and I'm still chilling. Look, Zinjerman Button, Public's Enemy,
we here yo. I don't even know who hate no more. Even that, like when your mom learned she was a
stepper. She didn't know.
She didn't know you was a stepper.
Mom found condoms, guns in your room.
She found mad drugs in your room.
Mom was like, oh, I raised you.
You raised a fucking stone.
My mama stop her. See my cousin dance on my face.
I couldn't.
I got to turn Dirk down.
Yeah, yeah, please.
Yo, listen, keep us in your prayers.
Keep Dirk in your prayers.
Keep all the rappers, everybody in your prayers.
Lord knows we all need to be there. Rest in peace, yeah, please. Yo, listen, keep us in your prayers. Keep Dirk in your prayers. Keep all the rappers, everybody in your prayers. Lord knows we all need to be there. Rest
in peace, John Clayton. Until the next time, we bid
you adieu, farewell, adios,
arrivederci, hasta la vista, au revoir,
so long, goodbye, and do remember,
life is a stand-in over somebody's body.
Jesus.
I got the keys forever.
Taking all these drugs, wish I could live forever.
I ain't gonna even tell them what we did
to go, baby.
Remember, life is a series of moments and moments pass
So let's make this one last, as this is all that we have
And lastly, the baddies are insecure
The stagnant women wanna travel
The closed-minded women want you to teach them things
And the broke women want rich niggas
That's not about Lotto, by the way
Had to turn my thug up and the broke women want rich niggas. That's not about Lotto, by the way.
Had to turn my thug up on these niggas, yo.
Look what they made me do, yo.
Can't even tell where the hate come from.
Y'all, have a good week.
Hopefully, y'all enjoyed this.
Remember, we are on tour. See y'all in Houston, Dallas, L.A., Oakland.
Woo!
