Hell's going on.
Don't blink at me like that.
What's going on?
How's everybody doing?
Good, man.
Ice is good.
Got his matching turquoise going on.
Parks is good.
Got his all black uniform on.
No deal.
Ish is good.
Got the hoochie daddies on today.
Show some skin.
Got the hoochie daddies on the seven inch joints.
Never that.
Got the legs.
What, hoochie daddies?
Never had no choice.
That's all they sell nowadays. Damn. It's hard. It's hard. Those are about seven inches. No, they're not. What, who's your daddy's? This nigga had no choice. That's all they sell nowadays.
Damn.
It's hard.
It's hard.
Those are about seven inches.
No, they're not.
What do you think they are?
I'm sitting down.
Nigga, these come to my knee.
Oh, that would be like.
How long you had them?
Nine to 11 something.
Did you just buy them?
11 inch.
Pause.
You didn't just buy them.
Go try to buy them now.
That's what I'm saying.
A million of them over there.
New York is doing this thing where they only give us a super nice day when we pod.
Facts.
The best days are when we pod.
Facts.
They've been pretty.
I think that's bullshit.
It is some bullshit.
Call God.
Corey.
You know, that's the harp machine, man.
Call the harp machine.
It's wrapped around the JVP.
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
They tuned in.
All right.
Do you guys have important opinions to give away to the people today about anything?
Yeah.
All right.
So we should have some fun then.
I don't know if I have any.
Uh-oh.
I'll see.
I'll see as the topics come up.
See if we get mild, mild Joe on a Wednesday.
Mic check, one, two, one, two.
Microphone check, mic check, one, two, one, two.
Here we go.
I saw some R&B brackets going around.
I did see some too.
They all had New Edition winning.
I guess I'm not all the way mad at that.
I can't believe that.
I'm not mad at that.
Saw something different.
I saw something that I would like to question with you gentlemen here today.
Okay.
I don't love her.
Yes, you do.
I tried to tell myself. Stop lying to yourself.
But you can see it in my eyes
Love is in his eyes
So don't deny
I can't no longer
Hope everybody's feeling good out there
Shout out to wherever you might be listening from
Shout out to the ladies listening
And you niggas I guess
I think it is enough
Why do I feel this way
I ain't loud enough in my headphones.
Turn me up in the headphones, please.
Turn me up in the headphones.
Hold on.
Hope everybody had a real good weekend and a good Monday, Tuesday.
Yeah, there we go.
Give me the sound like I'm smoking sal, you know what I mean?
Shout out to all the corporate people listening.
The young boys, niggas in the streets.
Shout out to niggas in jail listening.
Hey.
Niggas just broke up with their girl yesterday.
I start with this, right?
It's fucked up.
Nigga listening to the pod just start crying.
Shout out to y'all.
Might be a long summer for you.
Or not.
Or a great summer.
Or a great summer.
Sometimes there'll be the lit summers.
Yeah, but even that gotta come after the heartache and pain of the breakup.
Nah.
Like, you gotta go curl up for a week or two before you get out there.
Or you get out there and then after you're back home alone, you're sad again.
But, you know, tomorrow's another day.
Once you get out there, I'm never home alone again.
She's going to stay with me.
Why do I feel this way?
Why does she stay on my mind?
She got that grubber. That's why. You love I was so bad
You make me feel so sad
Inside
If it is love
It's almost a shame of travesty to cut that.
You need the bridge kind of, but it's all good.
No, the artists out there need to start making bridges again.
That's a fact.
Well, it's hard to do that when everyone's trying to force you to make two-minute songs.
That means you have to find a space for a bridge.
That's what I say.
Two-bar bridge and shit.
If you're making a two-minute song or two minute and 20 second song you have to find a way for a bridge the third verse is dead oh it's been dead i know but the
bridge is kind of i don't care about they're killing the bridge i know and i don't like that
i feel you i know that i'm playing all this old shit yesterday on amp and it's like you want to
cut a song off but they they're not going to go crazy
until the end of the song where the bridge is.
That's what they did in old songs.
Today, these niggas, lazy saxist shit, I tell you.
This song ain't even the same song without the bridge.
That was freaking in the 80s. That was freaking in the 80s.
That was freaking in the 80s.
That's Ish.
Love her, what?
That's the front he is.
All right.
Yeah, I'll find.
I'll cut it there, even though you shouldn't.
Microphone check.
One, two, what is this?
How's everybody doing?
What up?
Y'all know who it is.
You know what you're here to see.
Some of you have been here for a while.
Some of you have not.
Salutations.
Hope everybody's feeling good, feeling great, well-nourished, well-rested.
Hope everyone's mental health is good.
I hope the shit you do in your spare time is awesome and you're having a blast.
I hope that you are moving moderately with your vices.
Not too much, not too little.
Sure.
are moving moderately with your vices. Not too much, not too
little. Sure. I hope that
you have all of your
relationships intact
and in order. Side chicks
included.
And I wish health, wealth, and prosperity
to you all. With that being
said, everybody that's supposed to be
here is here.
Yeah. What's up? Well,
TSK is not here, but you know what I mean. Wait, Rob's not here? Oh, shit. Look at me. What's up? Well, TSK is not here, but you know what I mean.
Wait, Rob's not here? Oh, shit. Look at me.
Where's Rob?
He had some family business to take care of or something.
Something of that nature.
Who's the head of communications at this network?
Who the hell is supposed to tell me that?
Niggas just do what they want, huh?
Oh, man. This might be the episode
we get canceled. He's not here.
Who's taking time stamps?
We all are working together. Oh, yeah. We're canceled. We're out of here. This might be the episode we get canceled. He's not here. Who's taking time stamps? We all are working together.
Oh, yeah.
We're canceled.
We're out of here.
Welcome to the last episode of the JVP.
542.
We made it.
Now, on this R&B bracket that's running around, I have no issue with any of it.
It was part of my interruption.
It was group or solo or mixed?
I think it was group.
I think they were doing groups.
Got you.
They were doing groups. New you. They were doing groups.
New Edition won all of the ones that I saw.
Now, another question.
Sorry to interrupt again.
Time frame.
Here it is.
Boyz II Men versus New Edition.
Man Condition versus High Five.
Silk versus H-Town.
Blackstreet versus Guy.
Okay, so this was modern.
We have Jodeci, Tony, Tony, Tony.
112 versus After 7. Drew Hill versus Bellevue. DeVoe, Jagged Edge versus Next. black street verse guy okay so this is this is modern we have joseph c tony tony tony 112 verse
after seven drew hill verse belvedere jagged edge versus next now everybody made their own bracket
but on a lot of the ones i saw it's it's corrected here they had guy beating black street no and i No. And. I don't know about that. It pains me to say.
I don't think that's true.
Yeah, I don't know.
I'm on the other side of that coin.
Of course you are.
Why?
This guy.
See, and I need more than that.
That's the same thing I did when I read it.
Guy dominated.
That's disrespectful to Guy.
It feels like off name recognition.
No, Guy dominated the 90s.
No, they didn't.
Okay.
No, they did not.
Have you said that?
They didn't dominate the 90s at all.
They didn't dominate the 90s.
Their biggest hits came in the late 80s.
When was Lou Jack's swing era?
Late 80s.
Very early 90s.
I like his 80s record.
Yo, Goodbye Love is a 90s record.
Goodbye Love didn't dominate anything.
You watch your mind.
What did it dominate?
Okay.
We could have a disagreement, but.
Peace of My Love, Fantasy, I Like, and Let's Chill are 80s records.
None of those records are in the 90s.
And that got to be real late 80s.
Let me check that.
88, 89.
I don't know about that.
Well, we'll look it up.
But as we continue to talk.
And those are their four biggest records.
How do they get Blackstreet out of here?
Part of my ignorance.
I know I'm from the generation that is supposed to agree with this.
But I don't.
I like those 88.
Let's Chill was...
This is going to re-release
so they don't have the proper release date on it.
Peace My Love was also 88.
That guy album was 1988.
Then the next album was 90.
Yo, those two albums was crazy.
But to say they dominated The 90s
So that's incorrect
We don't have to stay on that
That part is incorrect
I don't
But Blackstreet
Their run might not have been
The longest either
But I'm picking these
Blackstreet records
I'm going Blackstreet
Maybe
And it could be age
Just off the strength of
Before I Let You Go
Joy
No Diggity Don't Leave Leave Me, Tonight's the Night.
I love Money Can't Buy Me Love.
They just got more records I love than Guy.
And that sounds fucked up.
But it's true.
Don't sound fucked up to me.
I'm rolling.
And Guy don't be Blackstreet in the verses.
I mean, it's a hard verse.
Yeah, because there's an overlap.
Okay, and I
think that you can go on.
I think Teddy Riley is one of the
greatest. He is. Keep going.
So I think that he can make something really
great and then go on and make
something greater. Sure.
Now, maybe, I will never say that Blackstreet
has had the impact that Guy has had.
No.
I won't say that.
Because Guy, I think, influenced Jodeci and the rest of them.
But yeah, I'm rolling with Blackstreet.
What's going on?
What do y'all want to start with?
What do y'all want to talk about?
Energy up.
What's up?
What's happening?
Well, you went to Summer Jam this weekend.
How'd it go?
Oh, let me hit the drops.
I don't think I did that right.
And Parks just will not fix these drops.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
It's Parks.
It's Parks.
What's up?
The new ice.
Okay.
New ice. Okay. New ice.
I did go to Summer Jam, kind of, like a Summer Jam of Jace.
Would you just hang out in the parking lot?
So Saturday, this is what I realized.
When I don't have my kid, I don't know what to do with my life.
Bored as hell.
Yeah, I'm at the age, right, where all of my
friends are 40
and 45 years
into their lives as well.
38 years into their lives.
They've got families,
kids, responsibilities,
new marriages,
houses. Like, there really
is nobody to call up
and say, hey, you want to run to the beach real quick?
Unless it's a thotty.
Alex, you good?
My fault.
And that's a dangerous game when you just are through the Rolodex of thotties
for your Saturday.
So I just go up the street, get a little brunch at the local bar uh I happen to
see Ebro there right uh the audience doesn't know but we thought about going to actually work
Summer Jam for a second that didn't work out so when I saw last minute so yeah great idea but two
last minute uh so when I saw Ebro he said hey you should just come and hang out and I said well I
never even thought about that that didn't even enter my brain as like an option right so sunday
came and i wasn't doing a thing so i hop up pretty early around three o'clock let's say and i run
over there now summer jam doesn't start till six i didn't really realize i was gonna go too but
it's supposed to rain so I was like Festival stage early
Yeah but even that was
I felt like later
I felt like it used to start earlier
3.30
but I could be wrong
Festival stage is early
Summer Jam starts
at 6
and they're going to run late
so you're thinking
7, 7.38
something like that
Yeah
So I get there at 3
and I'm just roaming around
by myself
None but police they're setting up
like a lot of police i'm sure and traffic because people are getting ready to come to summer jam
yeah so i was wandering like a lost little yorkie for a little while and then i see
no now i end up on the stage now that now'm on stage. While people are rapping or it's still set up?
No, I'm the only one here.
The outside stage or the inside?
I wasn't nowhere near festival stage.
I'm trying to see where you at.
That took a little walk.
No, the main stage.
Okay, so you went inside.
It's just me.
That's hilarious.
There's no audience.
Drinking a coffee on stage by yourself.
You'll never go in that early period.
Even without a pass.
I know, but this is media Joe now.
Still not.
Huh?
You start.
You start bumping it up.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Eber asked me that same thing.
No, I don't see stages or people performing and start missing it and getting the style.
I don't.
Yes, you do.
No, I do not.
Yes, you do.
I love when y'all tell me about me.
Y'all explain.
Because I just saw you repost a video that somebody put up of you performing on stage.
You're like, damn, I kind of miss those.
But I just know how much you-
I didn't say that.
She said that.
I know how-
Those weren't my words.
What'd you say?
I'd have to go look, but I didn't say that.
Those were her words.
All right.
I know how much you liked performing when it was the right situation.
And I find it hard to believe that you don't miss that on some level.
I don't.
Interesting.
Rapping?
No, we've had this talk here before.
I'm not getting into that bag again,
but shit, singing them songs was depressing and sad,
and it was mad words.
Well, that's why I said in the, you know,
some of the fun when we would do the shorter fun set,
I feel like you would enjoy that.
I'm like, I'm old.
I want to age.
I don't want to keep hopping around on stage.
I don't.
That's me.
I'm not saying that people are not having fun.
But anyway, I'm just sitting on an empty stage.
And then I bump into Nessa, who works at Hot 97, and Colin Kaepernick.
Nice.
Her significant other.
And then we get to chopping it up.
And then Ebro comes. And then E get to chopping it up and then Ebro comes
and then Ebro says,
hey, do y'all want to go see
Cardi at the festival stage?
Well, sure, Ebro.
I ain't doing shit
but sitting here doing nothing.
And I thought that that meant
that we would go to like
her trailer.
No.
It's not what he meant.
And the festival stage
is mad far over there
no golf cart
you gotta get through like
other levels of security
they not respecting
the all access
just a lot going on
but we finally get over there
and it's a mess
a million people
with cameras
and phones
and words
and questions
eyes staring all at you
hey can I get a pic?
Hey, I was in third grade
with your nephew.
Hey, I think your mom knows
my aunt they grew up in.
Yo, dog, I don't give a fuck
about any of this.
I'm only back here to see Cardi.
Know who I saw?
Everybody else.
Saw Saucy Santana. I saw Beloved. I saw everybody else saw Saucy Santana
I saw B-Love
I saw Fresher
right
but then Cardi comes on
and long story
less long
Cardi wasn't on the show
she wasn't on
she wasn't out on
Summer Jam main stage
no
she wasn't booked
wasn't supposed to be there
she just came out
to do the festival stage
and get and get out of there.
B-Love was performing.
She popped up with him, got the fuck out of there.
I thought that that was the flyest shit in the world.
How is that fly?
And when I asked her about it, she said, well, I just always felt like the festival stage was the lit stage.
And niggas did used to kind of feel like that a little bit.
But you wanted the bigger look.
Of course.
So you did Summer Jam Jam but when you big enough
you just do what the fuck you want
yeah
that's what made this
so dope to me
like
Cardi could have gotten
brought out by
damn near anybody
on that main stage
no question
by anybody
by anybody
that's what I'm saying
but you do it to the
festival stage
an artist of her stature.
That's super dope.
We talk about people getting too big and scared to,
not scared, but they don't give back necessarily
to the smaller.
You'd never see this.
You'd never see a super duper star.
You'd never see this.
Go do some.
Never.
Well, that was my other point.
Standing back there just observing,
it was a stark reminder that this girl is really her, yo.
Nah, she don't.
I mean, we know that.
But when you see it in action around other artists at a festival, right?
Like, you forget how big of a production Summer Jam is.
There's a lot of people there working.
There's police, there's fans, there's media.
It's just a lot going on some people when they come the crowd just got to move like moses
so to see that i just be proud of her man super happy for cardi i want to shout out ebro thank him
uh i want to shout out uh colin nessa for making that a great time while my anxiety and my angst was running rampant.
But anyway, once Cardi got off that stage and she left, I left.
Oh, it was there for you?
Yes.
That's no fun.
You mean like left?
I went home.
Oh, man.
You missed a hell of a show.
I'm sure.
I heard it was great.
I saw a lot of clips.
I saw a lot of clips. I saw a lot of footage.
But just the way I'm built and made up,
my brain told me,
oh, this is only going to get more congested.
No question.
And more packed.
And then I thought back to me
being an artist at Summer Jam,
remembering how it is
when the artists run in,
their whole entourage,
only this amount of time
to get to the stage,
perform, get out
you're seeing people
you're handshaking
traffic
cops are gonna get
even more aggressive soon
I wanna go
I don't do well
in them instances
many people tell you
they're introvert
and they are fucking liars
I really mean it
when I say it
and I'd rather be home
check this out
I went to Summer Jam too
from the comfort of my home
in the Oculus.
Inside versus outside.
All right.
All right.
All right.
Hey.
The topic that won't die.
I'm just saying,
they actually had
the Summer Jam stream
live in the Oculus.
See, I was mad
because I was trying to,
I was kind of banking
on the stream.
I was going to go
because a couple of Rem's friends
were going.
She wanted to go.
I was like, yeah, fuck it.
Let's go.
But it was supposed to rain.
I was like, fuck it.
I'm just going to stay home
and watch the stream.
Couldn't find the stream for the life of me.
The former title used to have it, and then over here used to have it.
Apparently, they had their own stream on their site that they sold.
I wish I would have known that.
I didn't know that either.
That's smart.
I follow a lot of Hot 97 people, and I didn't see anybody mention that.
Somebody sent me a graphic like, like yo we really got Summer Jam
in the metaverse
and I'm like
okay
I wanna see
what this is about
pardon me Ice
we gonna have to
turn the air on
in this place
oh
damn I thought
it was on
but um
yeah you
you literally
you damn near
on stage
that's dope
right in front
of the stage
that is amazing
like
there was
there were three camera angles you had and you were just about standing on like standing right in front of that is amazing like there was there were three
camera angles you had and you were just about standing on like standing right in
front of whoever's performing on stage looking left and right and the entire
show I mean the only thing where I don't know if it was a mess up it was a time
a lot it's thing allowance all right so give me your takeaways from summer jam
little Dirk is him mmm like I was wondering i didn't know how the lineup was
gonna go i knew little baby was on it and i knew little dirk was on it yeah so i was wondering who
would go first i've never seen either one of them perform live so i was just wanting to see their
shows their sets dirk is a straight up rock star. And it was,
it was wow.
Like he went through his,
from four projects ago up to current records,
brought out guests,
brought out French.
It's New York.
Right.
I'm mad at it.
And it was signed to him previously,
brought out his crew.
They did records.
He did a Vine record,
did Back in Blood.
Yes-ish. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Did Back in Blood. Yes-ish.
Yeah.
Yeah, I was in there.
I know you was.
With the goggles on while in?
Excuse me?
Yeah, the goggles on while in?
Oh, yeah.
While in the crib.
With the goggles on.
And it was just an experience to be like, I felt like I was there, but I'm still in the house.
Like, I don't have to worry about traffic.
Fights.
Nothing.
And I got a better view than all y'all.
That shit about to make.
For free.
That shit about to make mad bread.
When they start really feeling like.
Because he just said, yo, I ain't have to be there.
I got the real show.
From the comfort of my home with them things on.
I mean, it's not the real show,
but it's a close conversation.
Why is it not the real show?
There's something about
being in a room of people, man.
It's a different...
Stop it.
We're not getting back in.
Yeah, no, no, no.
We're not getting back in.
Ice enjoyed his Oculus show.
Yeah, which is great.
What's happening there?
Who are all these people on stage?
Now, one thing I wanted to ask y'all.
And the stream messed up because it cut before Fabio's set.
That's why.
And when he came out, he had on a crown and he had on a cape that said King of New York City.
Okay, he's embracing it.
And I want to ask what y'all thought about that.
Do y'all think he is the King of New York City today?
At my big age, I will not get into that.
Because I don't care.
I know what they mean
when they say it
and what they're trying to do.
What is that?
I still am unclear
on what king of New York is.
Well, it's always
been the hottest artist
in New York.
That's kind of how it
went from a whole,
I mean, from big to whole
to then when 50 says New York's mine.
I have never put.
People have put a claim on it.
I'm the hottest.
I'm the king of New York.
I have never given that title to anyone outside of Biggie and Hov.
When 50 came and was hot, I never said he's the king of New York.
When Ja came and was hot, I never said he's the king of New York.
When Fab had his run, I never said he's the king of New York.
That's because Hov was still Hov. You can't say they're the king of New York while When Fab had his run, I never said he's the king of New York. That's because Hov was still Hov.
You can't say they're the king of New York
while Hov was still Hov-ing.
I just don't put king of New York on the hottest.
I don't put king of anywhere on the hottest.
What are you doing in your community?
There's a bunch of things that I could attribute
to why someone is calling him the king.
Fabio, most would say you can't sell
that amount of records
and be the king of New York.
But I'm not going off that
when he says it.
It's a feeling.
It's a feeling.
It's a feeling.
The whole city's behind him.
Hottest in New York,
that's debatable.
I mean, I don't know.
Like they were saying,
like even he said it,
you know,
Pop Smoke was the king
of New York
and now he's not here.
It's mine.
Yeah, he said that
on Alicia Keys records.
Yeah, but niggas get to be saying whatever on these records palm smoke
was here for how many years but unfortunately joe that's what it takes you say something on
the record and start moving like you believe it and the fans will treat it as fact i've seen it
happen plenty of times that's why i started with i don't engage in this because i know why they do
it that's why they do it you are absolutely right if i say it enough times the fans will rally behind it it might become fat t.i said he was
the king of the south and everybody had a problem with it but he started behaving like the king of
the south and then it stuck wayne said greatest rapper alive and people were saying no you're not
this person this person but he started behaving like it and it stuck talk to me about the shit
that has perks that come along with it. Like these self-imposed titles.
I think you have to
self-impose the title though.
That's not true.
You have to.
This is all marketing shit.
You have to.
You got to self-impose the title
and then back it up.
But if you don't
self-impose the title
they're not going to just
crown you some shit.
Shit.
I mean, I i think i think that
you could be on such of a run and you could be so impactful that somebody else can say yo
he's such and such or she's such and such but niggas don't say it you gotta say it and make
niggas believe it niggas ain't giving props out yo he's him especially not your peers
shit that's when you really are out here moving.
Give me an example where the peers said this outside of when the West
anointed Kendrick as the next up.
That's the only time I've seen that happen.
Anointed.
Anointed.
Anointed.
Anointed, sir.
Excuse me.
It happens.
We ain't perfect.
Outside of Kendrick being anointed when Snoop and all of them came together and put the crown on his head, that don't happen.
You got to snatch that title and then back it up.
And then what do you get?
I get where Joe's going.
What does it get you?
What is the perk?
I said I'm the king of New York.
I backed it up.
Sold a lot of records.
Mad dudes believe me.
Now what?
I don't know. You know how this shit goes it's silly hip-hop shit i don't care call yourself what you want i don't care about that no it's a little bit so we've unpacked this
so just so i'm clear we can get off of this y'all agree or disagree with that title that's all i was
asking with him saying i am the king of new york do you agree or disagree with that title that's all I was asking with him saying I am the king of New York do you agree or disagree
I agree
sure
nah
but when anybody says it
it's like
with a little bit of heat behind him
it's like okay
cool
I'm trying to think
who else would be
in the running
6ix9ine said it
and none of these niggas
could say nothing
because he was the hottest
nigga in New York
and that's why he said it.
But who acknowledged him
that he didn't have
to see those other boxes?
The respect amongst your peers.
It's just everything
that comes with it.
I'm not talking about
that damn 6ix9ine right now.
So were there any other
performances that were...
Yeah, yeah.
I watched Pusha T go in there, and
while I loved
the records he performed, it felt
like Summer Jam wasn't... Him and Benny.
I just felt like that's not the crowd for them
for some reason.
It's a radio-centric
performance, and they're not necessarily radio
guys, but Pusha has radio records.
Historically. He did his new records.
Push looks great go push and
then went into like he did mercy he did a i don't like he even finished with grinding okay but the
crowd was just like it was it was really a it was a dead crowd if i go anywhere with those three
records and it don't pop off it's definitely the crowd's fault i feel you i can go anywhere in the world with them three records and feel like i'm strapped yeah not not a young summer gym crowd i don't know about them
26 year olds that i'm sorry ain't gonna hit like that it's still grinding i know but it still ain't
gonna hit ain't grinding to them i'm doing grinding if it's in my heart you should do what you are
you should and they might not bop but it's grinding correct audience. You should do it. You should. And they might not bop, but it's grinding.
Correct.
Would you rather grinding
be erased from the history of...
Of course not.
You got to do grinding.
And he got...
He could get in his
Chief Keef bag.
He did that.
I said it.
That's what I'm saying.
He got records he could get into
for the young niggas, but...
And also,
they did the K-Slay tribute.
Okay.
And it was...
Rest in peace, K-Slay. Rest in peace, K-Slay. B. And it was... Rest in peace K Slay.
Rest in peace K Slay.
Busta Rhymes and Spliffstar came out first.
Dope.
Pat Pooce.
Dope.
Shout out to Pat.
Fat Joe Remy.
Nice.
D-Block.
And The Set.
The Set?
The Set.
Which is Jim Jones and Joel Santana.
Okay.
That's a thing?
Apparently.
I have my theories, and I'll leave it alone.
That's what the hell them other two should have done.
Look how simple that is.
I have my theories.
Why they couldn't just do that?
Anyway.
So Governor's Ball is Saturday.
Roddy Ricch gets arrested at Governor's Ball.
Checkpoint.
Weapons in the car.
You're coming with us.
They didn't just take him.
They took him and a few of his associates as well.
Roddy Ricch was released.
Try saying that four times fast.
Roddy Ricch was released
in time to be at Summer Jam.
That's what's up.
And he goes on stage
and tells the crowd to say,
NYPD can suck my dick.
Ooh.
Know what the crowd did?
Exactly what they should have.
They said,
NYPD can suck my dick.
Now, the crowd wasn't just released on bail the day before.
The crowd may or may not be fighting charges along with their buddies.
They're just screaming some shit for fun.
We got to get into what artists scream at the front of the stage and why you do it.
You said there was a big police presence.
All of us have done this before.
Although it wasn't NYPD, I guess.
Huh? The police at Summer it wasn't NYPD, I guess. Huh?
The police at Summer Jam was not NYPD.
So what?
I know.
The gang is the gang.
That is not true.
I mean, it is true, but that's not true.
The gang is the gang.
It matters none.
You think they're not going to try and jam him up the first chance they get
for going out there and screaming, fuck any cop anywhere?
He could have said, fuck Chicago cops.
And the cops out here would have had a problem with it.
Yeah.
And just why would you do it?
I know.
I've done it before, I'm sure.
But why?
Probably not the wisest thing.
There's so many things the crowd can say, yo.
Yo, again, whatever
happened to good old, everybody
wave your hands from side to side.
Why won't they say ho?
Brooklyn!
Yo.
You got more than $100 in your pocket, but it
like anything, dog.
And then we'll come in here.
If they
crack his fucking muffin, we gonna come in here and they crack his fucking muffin
we gonna come in here
and get mad
at the courts
fam
money don't make you
impenetrable
especially to
your man John Law
them niggas
we got it out for you
fam
now you gotta come back
that's what
you on bail
you gotta come back
we'll see you
yeah yeah yeah
you gotta come back
holla at me
you know what else I noticed
about Summer Jam?
You playing that Roddy Ricch clip right there just kind of reminded me.
Do you artists understand that this is June?
Everybody had leather on.
And I've seen this happen before.
Some things never change.
I'm not mad at them.
You ain't swaggy with the young boys.
They swaggy.
They sweating.
So?
They hating.
That's hate? That's hate. Yeah, it might be hate. Bam, it's hot. It's summer. But you got to get fly. No swaggy. They sweating. So? That's hate?
That's hate.
Yeah, it might be hate.
Fam, it's hot.
It's summer.
But you got to get fly.
No, no.
It wasn't even that hot.
Thank you, Alex.
Tell him, man.
He just started matching the turquoise.
He don't know about wearing,
he don't know about the leather
when it's hot out.
Yeah, I don't.
Nah, it's summer.
You right.
No, you right.
Okay, my bad.
You wanted to be mesh shorts?
I'm not wearing the leather.
You want him in a hoochie daddy? Fam had on a whole leather, the top and the bottom. Come on, dawg. Alex, it's right. Okay, my bad. You want it to be mesh shorts? I'm not wearing the leather. You want him in a hoochie daddy?
Fam had on a whole leather, the top and the bottom.
Come on, dawg.
Alex, it's hot.
Yeah.
Get him.
Nah, that's fly.
Come on.
Okay, salute, King.
Part of fashion is sacrificing comfort.
That is part of fashion.
That's true.
And it has been.
For since forever.
I'm on the beginning of the time.
You on the flow.
I'm on the comfort side.
Yeah, it's coming.
It's coming.
No, no, no.
I'm on the comfort side.
It's coming for you.
We'll get there. You change. Ice. I change every day. It's coming. That's right. Y. Yeah, it's coming. It's coming. No, no, no. I'm on the comfort side. It's coming for you. We'll get there.
You change.
Ice.
I change every day.
It's coming.
That's right.
Y'all see the new name.
It's coming.
We had a Young Thug message from behind bars.
Yeah, it's crazy.
I read the Gunna one.
The letter.
Yeah, the Gunna one was kind of profound.
What was it?
He wrote a letter.
It was a two-page letter basically that he
put out i think it was his birthday is that what it was i know he wrote a letter basically saying
the people that know me know me is this the letter yeah 2022 has been one of the best years of my
life despite this difficult situation this year i had the whole world pushing p growing up from
where i come from in a marginalized neighborhood i never dreamt my art would change my life and the lives of my loved ones.
My entire life, I've seen black men, black women and black children constantly attacked, hated, murdered, berated, belittled, silenced, judged, used and held captive.
I use my art form, my gift from God to change my circumstance.
I worked. I owned my craft. craft i worked i empowered black women in my
industry i worked i lived in the recording studio i worked i lived on the road i worked i worked
every day to show how grateful i am for my gift for my art for my life and to be able to provide
for my loved ones for now i do not have my freedom but i am innocent i'm being falsely Oh, there's more.
Two pages.
Okay.
I get it.
I understand.
And this was released when?
I'm assuming yesterday. I think it was today or yesterday.
Well, yesterday.
Today or yesterday.
Recording.
Tuesday.
You know what tends to happen, yo, especially with these young dudes,
because of the content of the the music we really kind of
don't humanize them facts like that's that's somebody's son you feel what i'm saying like
that's somebody's kid that's somebody's son i don't know if they're innocent i don't know if
they're guilty don't i'm not even going down that path i'm just saying at the end of the day when he
breaks it down like this you look at him differently like yo this is this is somebody's
brother somebody's cousin you know i'm
saying and we're in superstardom we've kind of forget that celebrities are people even the shit
that they say on the blogs like about you or your family or like they don't give a fuck like these
are human beings and so to me the letter kind of humanized him when i was reading it let me read
his caption also it says 22 and 2 and for those that don't know that oh he's telling me just a
bed and a shower no windows just walls can't see or talk to anyone i'm writing now and still praying
every day i was raised to fight fire with water even though my country's amendments have failed me
protect black art and that was another uh thing at summer, too, to protect black art. They have some initiative.
They were asking everyone to text protect black art.
It was about the lyrics being used in court.
Dirk brought Meek out, performed a couple of records, and then Meek gave this long PSA.
He's like, listen, I'm one of the silent people behind this movement, you know, with his prison reform, et cetera.
I'm one of the people behind this.
This isn't about...
This is about all of us.
So just protect black art.
Protect black art.
It should not be allowed to be used against us.
No, it shouldn't.
Sign the petition.
Yeah.
Sign the petition, man.
And just...
Again, it's just art.
It's just lyrics.
Y'all already know where I stand on that topic.
You know, if you're not sitting here outlining something directly,
it shouldn't be allowed to be used against you.
Agree.
When the last pod ended, I asked you gentlemen specifically
if you thought the Golden State Warriors would go down 3-1 in the finals.
And all of you said yes, to my surprise.
But y'all are sports idiots, so I didn't think y'all would get it right.
So now come in and answer for yourselves.
Boston looked good in game three.
So recency bias for you?
Yeah.
Does the same apply to you-ish?
No, I just think Boston's a better team.
I think Boston's a better team.
Boston won't win another game.
No, I don't think they will.
I've been saying that before.
I was saying that before this two-game win streak.
It's possible.
Boston will not win another game in this series.
Warriors in six.
At some point, coaching and championship pedigree will just have to come out.
And you Boston fans, yo, fans impact the game.
I remember I told y'all a story.
I made Jason Tatum mad before Nick game
and one time he went crazy.
Like, fans impact a game.
So while I normally think that Golden State would play cute in game six
just to win it on their home floor, not now.
No.
The Boston fans, y'all done pissed these guys off,
and they're going to win it on parquet.
Well, it's not parquet anymore, right?
No.
That's old Boston. Yeah, that's old. They're going to win it on par k well it's not par k anymore so that's the old
boston they're going to win in boston and this is not just because of how the series is gone
before this series started i never had the celtics winning game six you said that never had them
winning game six that's the that's their game they're not gonna lose that you said that so
whatever happens before that was on the Warriors, man.
And Boston didn't do what they needed to do.
My take is they're finished.
They go home at home.
Yeah, I think they cracked their spirit in that last game in Boston.
I think that last quarter.
Yeah.
Cracked their spirit.
Because I turned to it.
I looked at it.
It was halftime, and Golden State was up.
And then at the end of the third, it was a one-point game.
I said, oh, y'all getting ready to let them jump on your ass.
What Jason Tatum will learn is that there's levels to being Kobe even.
Like, Kobe didn't just pop up and become Kobe.
No.
I watched him in the playoffs shooting air balls when he was 18.
Like, there's levels.
You got to go through it.
So, you're putting a lot on his shoulders to just turn into the guy.
Yeah.
Like, he will be that guy.
And he is the guy.
But there's levels to guys.
And Wardell is just different, man.
Even though he didn't show up last game.
No, he didn't play that great in the last game.
But that's why Boston should have won that game.
Sure.
If you cannot win the game when Wardell don't show up,
if Wiggin and Clay and the rest of them start beating you,
then what are we talking about here, man?
And that's just what's so scary about the Warriors.
Even with him not showing up, he's such a threat that it allows somebody else
to still cook you because he could not show up until the fourth quarter.
All right, let me instigate.
Let me instigate and try to wake you guys up.
If the Warriors win, does that say anything about Kevin Durant?
I've been waiting to bring back that argument for a while.
Bring back?
What was your original argument for those that missed it?
I think it was a Patreon episode.
Oh, Steph versus KD.
Steph versus KD.
Well, then I bump into Amanmani last night, and he says something I've never heard,
but maybe it should be acknowledged.
He says if Steph wins, then that should open people's eyes up
that they have KD ranked entirely too high on the all-time list.
I don't know that I agree with that because I have eyes.
I don't know if I agree with that.
What do the two have to do with each other?
I don't think they have anything to do with each other. I think that arguably don't know if I agree with that. What do the two have to do with each other? I don't think they have
anything to do with each other.
I think that arguably...
You know why it's being said.
I do know why it's being said.
I just don't think
for anybody that has
a basketball brain
that it's relevant.
This would be Steph's...
Go ahead and say
this replaced KD.
That nigga Jordan Poole
is an offensive juggernaut.
He could score on anybody
in the fucking world.
I'm not going to call him
a juggernaut,
but I see what you're saying.
Offensively, he's a problem.
He ain't showed up this whole series.
Yeah.
He ain't showed up.
I can't call him a juggernaut,
but go ahead.
He's very skilled.
Half of the team is not showing up.
If you really want to be honest,
it's Steph out there playing with Wiggins.
The rest of them niggas playing like shit.
Looney playing okay,
and the rest of them niggas
are playing like shit.
Klay looks whack.
Draymond and his bully shit ain't working.
Wiggins is out there saving the day like fucking Jesus Christ.
Let's stick to our point.
You know why people would be saying this about Kevin Durant.
Respond to that.
I don't think the two correlate.
I don't think it affects KD's standing as one of the greats.
He is one of the greats.
However, if the previous pecking order was him above Steph,
I think that you would have to reanalyze that.
I think that anybody that watched basketball
and watched the Golden State Championships when KD was there,
KD was the alpha.
Like in the fourth quarter, KD saved the day.
It wasn't like he was out there getting 19 points
and was riding the coattails at him. That's not what happened. They, KD saved the day. It wasn't like he was out there getting 19 points and was riding the coattails of them.
That's not what happened.
They rode KD.
That's a fact.
He was an integral, integral, integral part of their championship run.
So I don't think that dims his light.
I just think they're a good basketball team.
They have a great system.
They're well coached, and they're veterans.
Well, the knock before he got there was his ability to lead a team.
They highlighted him leaving the Thunder
when he had a 3-1
series lead against those very same Warriors.
Now, I never pay any of that any mind,
but this will be Steph's second
team.
Some could say third.
Some could say third. Third lineup for sure.
But this is the third
iteration that he
has led
to this.
And some of that would,
I think,
have to say something about KD.
Why?
If I just say,
if you previously had KD above,
man,
you left to be the alpha,
like the alpha,
alpha,
the undeniable alpha,
right?
Cause even now with him winning and I'm not staying on this forever. I want to get to the Currys and the wife swap. Like undeniable alpha. Right. Because even now, with him winning, and I'm not staying on this forever,
I want to get to the Currys and the wife swap.
Like, that's the fun part here.
But, yeah, I don't even care about this.
KD is great.
Steph is great.
Y'all know how I feel about Wardell.
He's him.
He will always be him.
Amazing.
I think if he gets a fourth chip,
you put him in a different conversation than he was previously.
I think he's arguing.
And he'll get his finals MVP finally.
Some people say Wiggins should be acknowledged a little more for that.
We'll see what happens.
He should, but Steph.
I don't care what Wiggins do.
Steph is getting that award.
He is getting that award.
He carried him on his back for the first.
That game four, he just dropped four quick 40.
Took over.
It was just, yo, he couldn't miss.
And they played like shit.
Again, the team is playing like shit.
Outside of Steph and Wiggins, the rest of those jokers are playing like shit.
Now, after game four, they showed Dale Curry in the stands with some white meat.
I posted that picture because I thought it was funny.
I have to stop doing that.
I can't act like the Reddit people.
The first person to respond to my post
was who?
You guessed it.
Seth Curry.
Oh, shit.
Oh, shit.
My man.
We go back to the Duke games.
He's run from Monopoly for that many years,
but his career took off,
so I don't blame him.
But we had a brief exchange.
And while I won't divulge any of it,
what he did say is,
Pops is outside.
Sucked the fun right out of my joke.
I think I picked the fun.
You know what it means that Pops is outside.
But we knew that.
Where do y'all think that Steph got these great shooting skills from?
The greatest ever.
Yeah, shoot her.
Del.
Y'all thought Del stopped shooting?
That's what I don't like when niggas be like,
Joe, you 41.
Stop fucking the bartenders.
No.
Like, what age do you think
niggas need to be at to stop?
No.
He's kind of got like,
you know what I mean?
Like the white hat,
the gray beard.
You know what he's doing?
He look like you.
A few people say that.
Now listen,
this was funny enough alone.
Before you learn anything else,
Dale Curry with the white woman
at the game was fun.
Know why it was fun for me?
Because niggas, yo.
Niggas.
These are my kids.
They've dominated the league.
I've been at this game with my wife
for ages. Camera's been on us. It've been at this game with my wife for ages.
Camera's been on us.
It's been our daughter, our family.
Y'all ain't.
I know the intensity of playoff games.
I know the extra coverage of a playoff game.
But I do got to support my boy.
And hey, white meat, why don't you come along with me?
Nah, y'all missed it.
Niggas know the position that they put people in, yo.
Remember when it was the Knicks he hit that record-breaking shot, right?
I don't know.
All right, well.
I don't think it was.
Steph was in.
Del.
Del, excuse me.
Del was in the crowd, and he had two pieces with him.
He did.
He did.
And was looking, and that's when it was fresh.
A snack box.
Yeah, he had a little two-piece.
And even then, it was like, oh, he's outside,
outside.
Like he had the shirt tucked in
with the belt showing.
So he's been showing you,
yo,
no,
just me.
I'm him.
Just me.
I know,
but as men,
we know that men can go outside.
Really is it told
that when you go outside,
she did too.
She did too. She did too. She putting, she did too. She did too.
She put the dress on too. She did too. And guess what?
She got tickets to the game
too. Mom Dukes.
Hey, those my kids. My kids too now.
Put me on the other
side of the bleacher. Your dad
is coming.
And I got a little piece coming with me.
Now, that's
funny already.
It is.
I don't need nothing else, but the internet sometimes will be the gift that keeps on giving.
Time out.
They was at the same game?
Yes.
I didn't catch that part.
What?
I saw the pictures.
I'm like, oh, that's fly.
No, they were at the same game.
Yeah, yeah.
First of all, and this is why women are shady.
It's only one game.
This is why women are shady. I's only one game. This is why women are shady.
I'm Del Curry.
I was a player.
Now you break up with me and get with some nigga that look like a coach.
That nigga look like a fireman.
He look like a coach to me.
He look like a high school basketball coach.
Yeah, all right.
Want to try to come in as the stepdad and give Steph pointers now.
Yo, hello?
I'm Steph Curry.
The fuck away from me and my mom.
That nigga look like like Karen husband.
So now, this gentleman is the ex-husband of the white woman that Del brought out.
Yeah.
Wife swap, nigga.
We need a reality show.
No, it ain't.
I'm going to get you back.
I'm ready for the reality show.
Is that your takeaway from this?
I'm ready for the... Because for that your takeaway from this? I'm ready for the

Yo is it cool if I could shoot
Yo is it cool if I could kill
Yo so if a nigga said no. Yo, is it cool if I could kill? Yo, so if a nigga says.
Yo, can I peel that thing back?
Yo, so again, if the dude says no, cool.
Then I can't kill.
But nine times out of ten, they already shoot.
I don't think men listen to themselves.
No, I'm listening.
And you subscribe to this.
That's how I conduct myself.
Not still today.

parks used to talk to somebody prior to me even remotely going in that direction i'm gonna ask

broke up but we're still kind of you know i mean working it out whatever whatever whatever i bring her around someone that you know outside friend circle
wouldn't call him a homie but kind of the homie they hook up but he is his girl is friends with
me she's going to be more than a friend now we were more than friends there you go there you go
yeah sorry i'm gonna mario her out yall are disgusting. You call it whatever you want.
I was young.
You're not young now.
Well, he's not young now.
Joe.
And you with that.
Yeah, I told you.
Yes.
Got it.
Got it.
Got it.
Like I said, I've taken it a step further.
And I've.
You say you do it for a friend.
Yo, I've seen one of my homies disrespected.
And he kind of played it off.
Okay, well, I'm not cool with that.
You know, you hollered at his ex on some disrespectful shit.
Okay, cool.
I'll get back for him.
Wait, this is y'all.
You got to get back for your man.
Yeah.
100%.
What is you hollered at my ex in a disrespectful manner?
That is your ex.
She has nothing to do with you.
And how did you find out it was disrespectful?
Somebody came and told you something?
Yo, you can't take that stance.
You can't take that stance.
Because in your brain, you say...
Who you talking to?
Me or Alex?
You.
Give it to me.
In your brain, you say your exes are off limits for the end of the world.
I'm listening.
So you can't say yo it's disrespectful if somebody shoots
at your ex hey when you try to bring like a pod joke in the real life oh no no so that's what you
could say in your male machismo pride and if you're living in your ego hey all my exes off limits i
only take one ex to teach you that that's false i mean i certainly don't think that i have this
uh hold on all of my ex's vaginas.
I do not feel like that.
So I just think that it's a manner of etiquette.
I just feel like if we got some rapport.
I think y'all are full of shit, but this is a good topic.
I'm giving it a buck.
Look, if we got some rapport.
Your ex is now dating a new nigga that you happen to know.
He didn't do nothing disrespectful.
No, listen.
That could be the disrespect.
How I know him.
Who dictates,
who determines that disrespect?
Y'all?
Me.
As a person outside of the relationship?
The person disrespecting
determines the disrespect.
Y'all don't think that's ego and pride?
The person disrespecting
Oh, then that's it.
I don't have nothing else to say.
No, I just said
the person that's disrespected
determines the disrespect.
We say that.
You can come in here and say
I didn't mean for it to go that way but if if they take it that way, that's what it is.
That's true.
So I can take that.
I love how you're moving on.
If we saying that.
I got it.
Like Chris Rock and Will Smith.
Remember we came in and Chris Rock was like, yo, it's a silly joke.
Everybody else's stance was, no, you don't get determined to determine if it's a silly joke.
If you disrespected
this man he's the person that entitles the level yo we're hardwood examples here what does that
have to do with this i i just said it fam if me and you know somebody got i'm trying to answer
you i mean i'm trying to answer you if me and somebody got a level of a rapport i can take
that as disrespect that you shoot that. He know that was your girl
for three or four years.
You knew that.
So I take that.
But they both moved on
knowing who you was
and who you be.
True.
So?
They did it.
That's fine.
That's fine.
You are on the outside of that
feeling like it's disrespectful.
That's fine.
They feel like they know
who you be.
Okay.
And this is what we did.
Okay, my nigga.
And now we here. And now we here. And this is what we're doing.
And now we're here.
And now we're here.
But what are you about
to do about it?
Nothing.
What we just told you.
Don't tell me again
because we going in circles.
No, because you just don't
want to hear what we're saying.
It's not true.
In this same discussion
with Pete and Kanye and Kim,
I was on this stance.
I was saying,
hey, that's disrespectful.
Ish was saying to me,
who the fuck are you?
To feel that way. Kim moved on. Pete moved on. They both happy. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. He gave me all that. Boy, it's disrespectful. It's what's saying to me, who the fuck are you to feel that way?
Kim moved on.
Pete moved on.
They both happy.
He gave me all that.
That's not true.
That's not true.
That's different from my example.
That's different from my example.
I don't want to get confused.
He was saying,
because then he had that rapport.
That's what counts in my example.
Yeah, not just that.
He was saying that
some of the things
that he was doing,
I'm not saying it's disrespectful
that they're dating.
That's cool.
I said some of the shit
That was going on
Was the corny shit
Or the inappropriate shit
Not the fact that they were
In a relationship
Okay
I got it
What is this shit you're showing me?
The freshman class
That looks like the freshman class
You know they do that every year
It's time for this already?

I know the music

Not saying anyone else isn't, but, you know,
I know it's a big deal for the younger acts to get the freshman cover.
Yeah, it is.
So salute to everybody.
Freshman show and freshman freestyle will be coming.
We'll see.
Mm-hmm.
They put Saucy Santana on the cover, huh?
They tried to cancel Saucy Santana on the cover, huh? They tried to cancel Saucy.
Yo, when you said that Saucy was going to be hosting
Young Miami's show with her, the podcast,
for some reason I was thinking of Sauce Gardner,
and I've been laughing in my head ever since.
Sauce Gardner.
The dude that did Jed's draft.
The fourth pick in the draft.
Yeah.
I was talking about saucy sand.
Yeah, I know.
Sand.
I know.
But once I put two and two together,
I was like, oh, man, bugger.
This is no longer a music pod.
What do y'all want this pod to be?
Football?

Lifestyle.
This is like...
This is big football.
Oh, Surf is here.
Round of applause for Surf.
Hey. He made Surf. Hey.

about a child uh but he later apologized well he didn't really apologize he said he was young my
bad and I learned,
and y'all be trying to cancel niggas and get the fuck out of here.
I don't want to spend time on that.
Lizzo put a song out and used the word spaz in the song.
S-P-A-Z.
Okay.
Okay.
And cancel culture came out.
Yes, spaz is bad.
Really?
Spaz is bad, yes.
I didn't know that.
Pull that up.
Pull that up.
I learned this as well.
Okay.
What is it?
Who does it affect?
I'm waiting for him to pull it up so I can tell you because I've learned this.
Disabled people.
Why Lizzo's new song, Girls, is being called...
Obleased.
Obleased.
Obleased.
Do better.
girls is being called a bleast a bleast do better lizzo is facing backlash on social media for using an a bleast slur ableist is that ableist ableist i'm just listening to surf fans of the star are
urging her to change the lyrics of the single or else remove it from streaming services altogether
disability advocates immediately condemned the song upon its release on Friday for its use of the word
derived from the term
spastic
amen
can I
can I
spastic
according to
Collins Dictionary
surf
is defined as
someone who is
spastic
is born with a
disability which
makes it difficult
for them to control
their muscles
especially in their
arms
and legs I'm not fucking with it hey dogs i ain't fucking with it niggas been spazzing since i was
born like that's been our word before who was collin this dictionary i know webster's dictionary
i don't know collin collin is another dictionary he's not valid in the hood
but collin is telling you collin is telling you he's teaching you Colin is another dictionary. He's not valid in the hood. We only respect Webster.
But Colin is telling you, Colin is telling you, he's teaching you.
Hey, this word derives from this, and however long you've been using it, today it is offensive What my New York niggas say?
I'm not jacking it.
Spaz is our word.
Hell no, I'm not.
So now, that's no.
Yeah, no.
That's no.
No.
The lyric in question say, hold my bag.
Do you see this shit?
I'm a spaz.
Yes.
And that's a problem?
Yes.
They can spaz out.
They come from spazing out.
You got to use context clues.
That don't mean she not here.
Where the spazing out come from?
Muscle spazing, I'm assuming.
So you're agreeing with Colin, right?
Ish?
I see where they're going.
I don't agree with that shit, though.
Man.
I think that we too picky.
Get Colin the fuck out of here.
Pretty sure you're not going to start saying nothing. We can't say shit't agree with that shit, though. Man. Get Colin the fuck out of here. Pretty sure you're not
going to start saying nothing.
You can't say shit.
This is my shit.
Lizzo is one of the most
unproblematic artists out there,
first off.
She don't...
She don't do shit
to upset none of that.
Except go out and twerk
in inappropriate places.
But whatever.
That's her body, her choice.
That's problematic.
But go ahead.
You know what?
What?
Nigga, if I went to the Laker game and a thong on started shaking my ass, somebody would say something about it.
It's no different.
For sure.
But that's not what the topic is.
Spaz.
I've said that word a bunch.
I had no idea that this is where it derived from.
Me either.
It did.
I certainly wasn't talking
To any disabled people
When I said it
It's cause you're not familiar
With the Collins Dictionary
None of us
When I said it
That meant I was about to go crazy
Yeah
We've been spazzing for forever
They gonna say go crazy
Is a problem now
Cause crazy
See what I'm saying
Like the door
That ain't nobody talking
Wow
He's not here
He's not there
He's not here
I'm bleeping that Wait Wow No no. I'm bleeping that.
Wow.
No, no, no.
I'm bleeping that.
I'm not as brave or as politically incorrect as you.
TSK not here.
Hey, you.
Be trying to buy no music anyway.
That is crazy.
Oh, shit.
Rob ain't here.
No.
Hey, Alex, write it down.
What do y'all think about this
Honestly
We know what surf thinks
Nah I don't think
Nah this is too far
It's too far
Yeah I just think that
Pretty soon you're not
Gonna be able to say nothing
Like if you go listen to
All the dope rap shit
From the 90s
2000s
The shit that they was
Saying in those songs
Man Biggie said
She was so
She was so bad
She'd suck her daddy dick
They worry about spags
It's other shit
We could be pulling out
in lyrics
that we could be talking about.
It was very progressive
for Biggie to say that.
It's mad shit
we could talk about
if we want to pull out lyrics
and start talking about
what people meant and shit.
Biggie had a lot of lyrics about.
When I was an old
Richard Pryor joke,
he just repeated it,
first off.
That's what I'm saying.
It's just mad other shit.
He did have some other jokes.
Yeah, it was some other shit
Richard Pryor didn't say. Yeah, Richard Pryor didn't say that. Richard Pryor didn't know Jermaine at all. That's what I'm saying. It's just mad other shit. But he did have some mad jokes. Yeah, it was some other shit Richard Pryor didn't say.
Yeah, Richard Pryor didn't say that.
Richard Pryor didn't know
Jermaine at all.
Richard Pryor didn't know
Darskin Jermaine.
You know what I mean?
Wait, who else he did?
Wait, wait, wait.
Oh, no, Gutter.
That's what I'm saying.
You know what I mean?
Gutter loved it.
I ain't repeating it,
but yeah, he did.
But why?
He did.
Don't you know my name? That's the G know my nigga Yeah, I don't know what it is
Today, could you say
Never
In a lyric
Never
Something that your friend
Enjoys doing
No, never
It's not me
No
No, not if it was that
Yo, don't you know my nigga
Antoine kidnapped kids
Fuck them in the ass
Throw them over the bridge
That's how it is
It ain't
yeah nah
no you can't say none of that
nah
no nigga
you can't never say that
yo imagine putting out
what's beef
when lyrics are being
brought up in court
damn
y'all got the gall
all I make is one phone call
all y'all disappear
by tomorrow
Rico
Rico
for sure and I don't want to hear the fucking prosecutor read those lyrics at all that's all that's what I'm saying All y'all disappear by tomorrow Rico Rico For sure
And I don't want to hear
The fucking prosecutor
Read those lyrics
At all
That's all
That's what I'm saying
What's the joint
He was talking about
Killing the witnesses
Duct taping the witnesses
Yeah
All of that
Yeah
Yeah nah
Who's the person
That picks out the lyrics
That should be
Thought in the hell no
Somebody with too much time
On they hands
That's all it is
And in a hot place though
Because for it to hit
Certain spots
Come on let
me let me jump in here if you're an artist you are a brand if you are a brand you are business
if you are business typically it is your job to remain clean and far away from the third rail
uh so you can be appealing to advertisers from big and small so anything that you say that is
offensive even if you don't really feel that way you got to clean it up because it ruins your chance at advertising.
But what if you don't know it's offensive?
So we understand why it is happening.
That's the problem that we keep walking into.
Well, whoever you're partnering with is going to get a phone call when there's public outcry.
And they'll call you and say, hey, we need to do a re-release and redo the lyrics which she did which lizzo did so congratulations shout out to her awesome i don't
rap anymore so i'm not going to use the word spaz but that word came up a lot in my raps
that word has been around i feel like for 30 plus years you know what i'm saying like but as hip hop
but as hip hophop becomes becomes more inclusive
right and we want do we want it to be more inclusive yeah right and because parks yeah
that word has been around but so is the f-bomb true yes in hip-hop oh absolutely you know what
i'm saying so it's like once you i don't think that's the same. I'm just saying, Joe. That word. Joe, there was a time where it was allowed to be said.
Absolutely.
Without any.
Not that long ago.
That's all I'm saying.
Not that long ago.
And then what happens is people learn.
You realize words are hurting people and how they're affecting people.
And you correct that.
And they go back and crucify people for old shit.
So, like, if an artist was to come out today
and say that yeah it's a problem you learn this word today is problematic she's doing the right
thing by fixing it and then another you know somebody else might not put spaz in their lyrics
going forward because now we know this is on the list of shit you can't say yeah your verse might
be trash if you don't say spaz Well say it Did you or did you not
Spaz
Are you spazzing or not
Say it
Sorry
If you're advertising
And branding it
Are you talking to me
I would
I would
I would
I would say
I'm about to spaz
Spaz
You said McDonald's
Won't cancel you
I don't think McDonald's
Is canceling the line for spaz
Alright
Do Lizzo got a Happy Meal No but if she did I don't think McDonald's Is canceling the line for spas. All right. Do Lizzo got a Happy Meal?
No, but if she did, I don't think McDonald's is taking it down because of spas.
She's the one they should get.
That's for real.
I said it.
That Lizzo sauce is going to be different.
You can't.
All right, let's move on.
Nah, Lizzo look like a fun time.
In a fun time type of way
nevermind
this is something that
no no no
but what's a fun time type of way
like a good person to hang around
you kill
nah
I don't know if I kill
like you know what I mean
you know what's great about
the young niggas
they always entertain
that question
like it's the real serious thing
yeah
really start to think about it
yeah I don't know
I look
is she lifting that shit up in that it's fine sir't know. I look, is she lifting that shit up
in that?
It's fine, sir.
It's fine.
It is fine.
Is she lifting that shit up?
Nah, she's like,

Like, bowling.
Game night uno.
Jenga.
Drunk twister.
I don't know if I can get around
Lizzo and Twister,
but that'd be fun.
Twister?
Lizzo?
Come on.
I'd say let's move on, buddy.
He ain't getting me.
He's thinking of all the scenarios.
I'm toast.
Shout out to Lizzo.
Peace and love.
Leave it in the comments what you think.
Getting right out of that one.
Okay, now on the versus news.
It's the versus cast.
It's the versus cast.
Yo, Joel Santana says that he wants Lloyd Banks in a Versus.
Just give it to me.
Just give it to me.
That's a good matchup.
I need to hear your fucking thoughts.
Give it to me.
That's a good matchup.
I think that Banks is obviously, well, I don't want to say obviously.
I think he's a better rapper.
You said it.
You said it.
I already said it.
Fuck it.
I think today he's a better rapper, but Joel has a lot of joints. Like, that'll be a better rapper today. You said it. You said it. I already said it. Fuck it. I think today he's a better rapper, but Jwells has a lot of joints.
Like, that's a big...
Jwells was a lot of part of some good joints.
Yeah.
And he had solo joints.
Jwells has verse...
Oh, no.
I ain't even get to his solo joints yet.
I'm just talking about the hits that he had verses on.
Yeah.
Like, he's got some crazy verses next to Wayne.
Some crazy verses.
Like, he's a part of damn near all dip sets.
Like, dip sets.
Smokers.
Smokers.
And you got Banks.
You ever go for a walk
in the park
because it's a beautiful day out
but as soon as you get to the park
you got to piss
so you got to find a bathroom
or get out the park?
Sure.
Jewel's going to use the bathroom.
You bugging.
That was my next statement me My next statement was
Banks was a part of
G-Unit's heyday
I did
True
I did
Ice
Wait wait
Both of y'all said that
We both
Ice and Ish
Yeah you bugging
You disrespected Jewel's
Nah he just had
You not putting enough
You not putting enough
Them dips had niggas
Had a lot of hits yo
Before you even get into
The Jewel's and
And Wayne bag
Before you even get into Solo bag What Jewel bag, before you even get into solo bags.
What Jewels and Wayne bag?
All that mixtape shit that them niggas was doing.
That's the tiny bag.
That's the tiny bag.
You put a sauerkauer in there.
You can use anything in the verses.
In the verses, you play any of that.
Yeah.
We talking about logistics.
Is this in New York or is it Miami?
Sir, if you be quiet for two seconds,
let them explain why they think I am wrong
in what I'm saying about Juul.
I just think that...
Y'all are arguing Juuls, and that's my man, man.
I think the Dipset catalog is just too impactful.
Too impactful to what?
Hip-hop.
You just watched what the Dipset catalog did
against another impactful catalog.
That was the point I was going to make. That was the point I was going to make.
That was the point I was going to make.
Yes, I am.
No, you're not.
Is the execution of the catalog, that may be a problem because we've seen that.
Do you know that Lloyd Banks was in G-Unit?
I do.
Man.
You can't compare Lloyd Banks to The Lox, who had a 30-year run in hip-hop.
Give me a score.
I'm just saying, this is a great matchup, in hip-hop. Give me a score. I'm just saying,
this is a great match-up,
and I have this being very close.
I love it. That's why I say you got Banks fucked up.
I think it comes down to
the way they do delivery.
The way this show is presented.
It literally comes...
Lloyd Banks wins this by seven, yo.
By seven songs?
One more.
What?
I love Banks. That seven songs? One more. Out of your mind. You bugger. What?
I love Banks.
That's big bro.
I love Banks.
I love Banks.
That's the big homie.
By seven?
He separates us by seven songs?
I said what I said.
Juelz is my man.
I say this as respectfully as I can say it.
I got Banks, and seven songs is crazy.
Banks has too many records.
That's a point.
Too many records.
That's a point.
I don't know.
You looking at me.
But you know what?
I ran into this with Dipset versus The Lox too.
When I said The Lox are going to run them out of town.
And everybody in New York said that I was a lunatic.
I even called drama right before the
battle i'm documented that don't change here do you else know i have the records to go against
fucking beamer bins or bentley he's on that record so who you think is playing it what are you
talking about they're gonna do that who is playing they're gonna do that together if they do it that's
gonna happen all right that's cool so put that to the side no answer my question who is gonna play that record Lloyd Banks is gonna
play that record and then Jules can use his he could come out in that same round talking about
we've seen that in the verses oh my lord no we have not we've seen them end with the song they
did together but one of them played it so follow what respond what I'm saying. I don't care if they perform together.
Lloyd Banks did his song.
Juelz came out and did the verse.
That's the grand finale.
But that's my song.
It's a point.
Victory is a point.
Start It Up is a point.
A Few of Them Girl Records is a point.
The G-Unit Records, some of them, it's a point.
You know what I give Juelz guaranteed points?
What?
Dipsay Anthem, of course.
Hey Ma.
Hey Ma.
Yeah, right.
I don't see how you can say that.
Go back down.
Running with Chris Brown.
Go back down, Alex.
Yeah, right.
You said running with Chris Brown.
Is he a right too?
Punk music?
No, I said Hey Ma.
Hey Ma is not a guaranteed point and no verses.
Go up, Alex.
And no verses.
All right.
Stop.
What? I know that's y'all shit. It's not a guaranteed point and no versus. Go up, Alex. And no versus. All right. Stop. What?
I know that's y'all shit.
It's not a guaranteed point and no versus.
What?
Where Lloyd Banks at?
The whistle song.
Point.
Where?
All right.
Where?
This nigga is crazy.
Where is the whistle song a point?
Yo, stop, yo.
Start it up.
Ain't no guaranteed point, Joe.
Okay.
I think it is.
I think it is.
Can I? Yeah. I'm cool. Okay, I think it is. I think it is.
Can I?
Yeah.
I'm cool.
Yo, I don't argue that.
If they running it in New York,
he is talking crazy right now. Yeah, if they play this in New York,
he's...
If they running it,
if they...
If he's playing versus
Joel in New York,
you're fucking...
You bugging.
They both from New York.
Santanatown a point?
No.
You really showing your age
right now talking about Hey Ma
and Santana Town.
No, he's not.
No, he's not.
He's not showing his age.
Nigga, I'm older than him.
You know what?
You're absolutely right.
You are.
How do Hey Ma
not go up in New York?
How do Banks' catalog
go up in New York
but Joel's catalog
not go up in New York?
And I got Banks winning.
This 12-8
for me.
Seven songs?
Then I'm wrong on the score.
Banks is winning this.
I would love to see this happen.
I'm there if this happens.
You're getting me excited.
Set this up.
And Juelz, I say this as respectfully as I can.
I know what you did.
I know what you do.
Banks is different.
And I'm going to keep it a buck.
I don't like what Juelz said in the beginning. Bleak it a buck. I don't like what Juel said
in the beginning.
Bleak is too easy.
I don't like that.
Bleak ain't no walk in the park, bro.
I got Bleak beating Juel too,
by the way.
Bleak is not a walk in the park,
y'all.
I have Bleak beating Juel too
or coming closer.
You got Bleak with 20?
Yeah.
Yeah, but Bleak definitely has it.
Bleak 100%
he got 20
yes
no no
no 20 good ones
not 20
I don't like that
I'm just scraping for
I don't like that
I don't like that
I don't like that
I don't like that statement
he gonna pay for it
fam Bleak got 20
don't worry about it
he gonna pay for it
Bleak got a 20
that you would have to
really like
he'll remind you
oh shit
he will
I do think that Banks is way more calculated and strategic than you.
Banks will make it make sense.
That's why I got Banks winning.
I do.
But the number's crazy.
Yeah.
He said, like, your first three, four, his top joints ain't points.
He said Santana's telling all the points.
He said five of them.
I just left it alone.
Five of them wasn't points.
And these are, like, the ones we all actually waiting for while we're there.
We're actually waiting for you.
Let me ask you something.
This is just off the top of my head.
Hey Ma comes on.
That's y'all shit.
Banks come on with that.
I don't know that.
I am the one you need.
Karma.
I do pick Hey Ma in that.
Do y'all think the masses do?
I don't.
Yes.
In New York City?
I don't.
I don't.
I don't. I do not think don't I don't I don't
I do not think
The masses pick
Hey Ma over Karma
I think that's
Y'all New York bias
I don't have New York bias
Well let's move on
There's more versus
Cat stuff to beef about
Okay let's get it
There's rumors of
A Mario
A Mario on Mario
Mario
Find the nearest bathroom buddy
Now I'm rolling with you
Find the nearest
Joe be right yo
I don't care whether you're rolling or not.
Mario, don't do that, yo.
Don't do that to yourself.
Mario, you my mans, yo.
I hate when I got told by my mans on this pod.
Mario, you my guy.
Just leave.
Leave all alone.
And other niggas don't want no smoke.
I like maybe Mario versus Lloyd, maybe.
Okay.
A Mario should be regarded differently than he is.
Same with Banks.
A Mario is not the one
for you R&B niggas
to tap on the shoulder
because he's going to
learn you something
on a nice 80 degree day.
Amarion.
Whatever his name is.
Nah, Amarion got too much shit.
These are too many records.
You got to leave him alone.
Oh, Touch, I'm trying to
honorize Iceman.
I'm trying to act like
a solo girl.
That's just a solo shit.
He got some shit.
Oh, no, you better, yes.
Oh, Post to be a studio, yes.
Come on, you're Post.
We didn't even get to MIA yet.
Man, leave him alone.
Rest in peace, Biz Markie.
I got a Mario on beating Mario by 10.
I might have more than that.
Yeah.
I'm not even trying to be funny.
No disrespect. Off the top
Like as a music head
Off the top
You gonna give
I'm giving Mario
How do I breathe
And Just a Friend
Those are the two songs
That I can think of
He might lose
Sorry buddy
Just a friend yes
I'm gonna give you
Break up
Depending on what
It goes up against
Break up
Depending on what
It's up against though
Let me love you
Yes
Somebody else
Yes Let me love you That's where this. Let me love you. Yes. Somebody else.
Yes.
Let me love you is a point. That's where this ends.
Let me love you is a point all day.
His score is there.
That's his ace.
He might lose.
He might get four points.
Big joker.
Let me love you wins against anything that Amarion is going to play.
For sure.
Anything.
How do I breathe is a monster.
That's a point for me.
I think that how do I breathe depends on what it matches up with,
but it has a high chance of winning.
But How Do I Breathe is a good record.
Just be talking.
Shut up.
Bam.
How Do I Breathe?
This shit ain't close.
This is Mario.
That's an amazing song.
You out your mind.
I've been.
I know.
I've been.
You be disrespecting some shit, Joe.
I don't know how niggas be liking you.
They don't.
They don't be liking me. Yeah, liking you this was a joy this comes on
everybody mother notice it's a joy right that's right in between two different
What am I the only nigga in the world with the how do I breathe instrumental?
What is going,
what is happening right now?
I said, how do he DJ?
It should sound like a TV track.
In my mind, I'm like,
he's a great DJ.
You got the instrumental.
Somebody hire him.
You should be on a crew.
You just want to put some bars on this?
You should be DJing on the cruise.
Guess what? It don't matter cruise Guess what it don't matter
Yeah
It don't matter
I ain't gonna lie
Take that shit to East Orange
Whatever the fuck you talking about
I just told him anything
It's a fight
Sorry yo
Fuck her on
It's not a fight
It's not a fight
It's not a fight
This is an ass whooping
Mario will learn the hard way
Jewel Santana He will learn the hard way. Jewel Santana, he will learn the hard way.
I will give you this with the Jewels one.
Because that was the main thing about that Dipset-Lox versus.
It was the performance and the fact that there was no chemistry amongst Dipset like that.
Facts.
So depending on how Jewels performs these records, that's going to be the deciding factor.
We forgetting that the sound system for
Dipset sounded like trash.
That's true.
But that's because
they were rapping over
their own beats.
Let me finish.
I mean, their song.
And then Jadakiss went up there
and put on a masterclass
in performance.
We're not going to act like
the Dipset songs
when you play them don't hit.
But look.
I've seen girls lose
all they prissy cool when them Dipset
Songs come on that was outside
That's part of the performance
Because they were rapping over
The actual track
That's why it sounds like shit though
I'm talking about song for song
Song for song
Yeah but again performance
It matters that's why Dipset shit didn't hit
The way they should have hit
Them Dipset niggas that's not even into hip That's why Dipset just didn't hit the way they should have hit.
Them Dipset niggas, niggas that's not even into hip-hop, know them Dipset nigga songs.
And them songs did not hit.
Why?
I'm talking about the songs.
I'm not talking about the locks battle.
I'm talking about the actual song.
Fuck the performance.
We agreeing on that. Yeah, it's Dipset singles you can play at white collar parties.
I'm with you.
At white collar parties, for sure.
I'm trying to tell you that it's not us listening to it in our headphones.
We're going to hear it the way it's presented at the verses.
True.
That's going to dictate how a record hits.
Who's to say that Lloyd Banks set going to be-
I'm not going to lie.
I got karma over.
Hey, ma.
What the fuck?
The song is just-
What the fuck is this?
It's the hook, though.
It's the hook.
It's the hook.
I don't get it,
but it's fine.
I might got carbo over here,
man.
That hook was crazy.
Santana Town,
not a point,
so I'm cool.
Yeah,
I was done with him with that.
Now you said like five things
and a point.
Yeah.
I'm straight.
If that's not a point,
you owe us a point.
It's because I can't talk music
with you niggas with fan ears.
That's the problem.
No,
that's not the problem.
That's why this nigga loses
because you gonna get
in your technical bag
and the average fan
has fan ears
yo I'm 99%
on my versus predictions
99?
I'm 99%
on my versus predictions
I got Preem wrong
I got uh
I got Preem wrong
there's one more
that I got wrong
that I don't remember right now
I've got two wrong to
my knowledge all right 95 okay so still got that being a close versus yeah like it's not
fans are the niggas that's going to be in the versus and again stop disrespecting bleep that
i was about to say that was a bad that Bleak. That was a bad tweet right there.
That was a bad tweet.
That's a bad tweet right there.
Don't do that.
That shit got non-retweets.
That's his real Twitter, right?
That ain't circulating in the world well.
Not yet.
Bro, that was an hour ago.
If the right person...
That was a bad tweet.
That's what that mean.
What do you mean?
That could have been up for 10 minutes. But you know what, though?
That's not just you-els, yo.
Hip-hop as a whole does not respect bleak enough.
They don't.
That's 100%.
I've said that a bunch.
I don't know why it is, but I don't want to sound like the old nigga trying to tell the
young niggas about why they should appreciate it.
It's very easy.
It's very easy. It's very easy.
It cannot be two Batmans.
When Holtz said he could be one hit away his whole career,
people kind of just held that as a little bro.
That's the good point.
That's what it was.
We don't talk about that enough.
We don't talk about the bad that comes with a big cosign sometimes.
That's a lot of pressure.
Running next to Batman.
Because it can't be two
batmans you automatically put yourself in that like if this is jay-z robin save batman acid
then the one of the movies and the cartoon he helps the movie but he's not batman and you can't
be batman if like you know how much shadow being next to lebron is no matter how great you score
and all microphones are going to be at lebron at the end of the game you walking straight to the
locker room.
That's just the way.
So the same way LeBron can walk in any gym
in the world
and feel good
with whatever
is in his toolbox.
I think Bleak can walk
in any hip hop conversation
with his catalog
and be respected.
Not with the way
this generation is right now.
They don't even know.
Then they need to go
listen to his catalog.
For sure do.
As the little man.
Like you,
you,
you little,
you man, man. You get what I'm saying you, you, you, you, man, man.
You get what I'm saying?
Like, you, you, you, little man.
I just think this coach is a disrespectful, like, this time that we in, like, right now
is disrespectful.
That's back to my inside, outside thing.
We won't get back on that.
But the same way you had to deal with Allen Iverson in 2001 if you happened to be in Miami
and he was there.
Yo, Bleak was in Miami too in 01.
Bleak.
I was out there, yo.
I had just got a deal.
You ain't have to go to Miami.
I had a new stock beginner's chain
that I was wearing
that a few of the JV thotties liked.
Oh, thanks.
But then you walk in the club
with niggas that are headlining
for the night in the club.
Like, the niggas that got a big bag
that just show up.
And that was Bleak at that time.
That was Bleak.
And you walked in there
in a sea of women
and watched him do
Do My Ladies,
Is That Your Chick?
Sure.
He started going crazy.
And then you look and say,
Oh.
That was his down...
There's not enough respect.
Oh, it's different.
He got one of them sneaky sets
like Wiz,
like Fat Joe.
Not enough is said about the sneaky set
fuck you little young niggas if y'all don't know it i think it's mostly because he stopped being
active musically just being outward outwardly active right well not true he was starting he
was signing people no no i'm talking about as a as an artist yeah right oh bleak response yeah
but i want it oh i want to see what he said I wish I want Bleak to come out
For smoke against these niggas
Somebody
What did he say
He might really hurt Jewel
Like on an OG tip
He might hurt Jewel
All that coming of age shit
That's like
Edston Stone
And hip hop forever
Jewel can't play nothing
Against coming of age
That's like
When you think about
He can play New York's anthem
He can play what
He can play
Dipset Anthem
Is his greatest record
and one of New York's greatest records.
Coming of age.
This is about coming of age, though.
That is...
Boy.
I don't have...
Either one.
I don't have coming of age beating...
Dipset Anthem.
I don't.
I don't either.
No.
And y'all are right.
Performance is a large part of versus.
It is.
I know that Banks has been locked in a house
in the fucking breathalyzer lungs room
like Mariah got in her house,
like that protects your lungs.
He's fine.
I tell you,
he can get out there and say 90 words per bar
like he never missed a beat.
He's in great shape.
He's in great health. He's in great health.
I'm telling you that.
2019, Banks had the 15-year anniversary for Hunger for More.
Sony Hall.
I was at that show.
And he went through the whole album plus his hits afterwards.
Must have been an hour, hour and a half set.
Good set?
Smoked it.
It looked like O3 Banks.
Hour and a half set is grown. It looked like O3 Banks. How when a half set is
grown?
It looked like O3 Banks.
So to me
the performance part is
they both got the records.
They both got a mean 20 that stack up
well against each other.
That was a little ignorant of Juelz
to say that about Bleak. I'm mad about that.
Let me just say, my last two times seeing Juelz's performance,
I don't know how that stacks up against that Banks.
Yes, you do, but you won't say it because it don't support your argument.
You do know how it stands against Banks.
It's hard to stand against Banks.
I'm going to say that.
They got the records, but the performance is what's going to change that.
All right, so rolling rolling loud We got rolling loud
Right
We got a
Rolling loud
Attendee here
Sitting on the couch

Ishman Simba's up there
that we played
the last couple sleepers from.
It's a nice lineup.
Ish, you made some fun?
Oh, please.
That's a nice lineup.
It is a nice lineup up it's three nice nights
of line ups
I mean
yeah it was
three great nights
my beef with the festivals
are things that have
less to do with the music
and the performers there
I get it
so I want to shut up
y'all can tell me
what y'all think about this
shout out to all the artists here
shout out to Surf
for being on here as well
but
I think they're not paying most of these niggas what they should be paid.
Of course I do.
And I think a lot of niggas are going to get arrested.
Again.
So don't bring the...
I say that as someone that's gotten arrested at a show.
Like, this broke...
So I shouldn't bring in the gang?
I shouldn't bring the guys?
In an honest opinion?
Sir, at this point, all I do is say to your mom,
yo, I know.
You can do what you want.
When your mom call me, I'm going to say,
no, I said that.
I'm asking you an honest question, bro.
Why you bringing up my mother?
That don't fly off podcast.
Because you're going to get good, bro.
That's not good.
That's only acceptable on air.
Why you bringing up my mother?
I said,
is it cool to bring the guys
to Rolling Loud?
Are you supposed to give me a
big broad opinion?
I would bring the guys
that you could bring
to these things.
Okay.
Not them guys
that y'all was on tape
in Atlanta
doing that.
Because it's going to be
a lot of guys. Don't bring them.
See, but this is what I don't understand.
You can just say no!
To doing the show?
Yeah, but you can't, right? I'm not missing his exposure.
And actually, they pay me very, like,
in the world, they pay me very well.
I mean, to the statement that you made.
So I got a nice check for this to be where
I'm at, and I ain't never had,
there's a lot of exposure for me, so I think a lot of people's not turning down rolling out.
But you're different.
You Joe Butter.
Don't go up there with guns.
Nah, no guns.
Hell no.
Who's taking guns to fucking rolling out?
I don't even own guns.
No, no, no, no, no.
No, they're taking them.
You said who's taking guns to rolling out?
Niggas scared of New York a lot.
Yeah, security.
Scared of New York.
Hey, yo.
Y'all niggas got nice guns I be seeing on the news
yeah
hey they put them
little pretty guns
across the table
I be like oh shit
Scott
Scott Blue Clip
damn that was
that nigga
see through clip
yeah Scott Blue Clip
them niggas
them niggas guns
is pretty nowadays
I swear to God
I seen some shit
I really had on
on Call of Duty
on I said
that boy got an MP5
with a
G16 2.5 scope.
Them guns be so pretty,
I side with the police sometimes.
Like, thank God he got that one
out of the Bronx.
What he was going to do
with that shit in the Bronx?
No gear in the Bronx?
No Buffalo?
Yeah, no, sorry, boss.
What the fuck is that?
Yeah, nah, they be taking some shit.
That need to be off the streets.
You niggas be having a joint.
Niggas had a bazooka.
They couldn't put this shit on the table.
It was living on a chair.
They was just...
Shit had a fucking bazooka.
I said, how the fuck did that get in Jersey?
Oh, man, yo.
You sitting at a light in a Missoula bot is...
Excuse me?
If you sitting at a light in a fucking Missoula patch,
your car... See, that's the other side
that's my second thought
when I go somewhere
I go places
I be like yo
I don't see enough
black people here
and then my next thought is
what if a missile
just flew
how do you
how do you
what
the same way they do it
no guns are rolling loud man
bring security
real security
I'm just gonna to get security.
That's all.
That's smart.
That's mature.
It is.
That's mature.
It's mature.
Because as an artist, you really be wanting to...
Don't get the security that run away when it go down.
Yeah, it's some trash security.
You got to get you some good security.
Be careful now.
As an artist, the average artist coming up, though,
it's not like you want the homies to be security,
but you would rather feel comfortable.
Like, all right, cool, it's me and my niggas.
And you put money in your people pocket.
Come on.
And you just feel comfortable walking around with your niggas.
And the fucked up part is, right, is like 15 homies is equivalent to you by yourself and two, three security guards.
You know what I mean?
In a weird type.
You know what I mean?
So it's like,
you having 12, 13 homies,
it's like,
am I going to do the security thing
or am I going to bring the homies?
I just love...
Yeah, I see what you're saying.
Thanks, Parks.
I don't know nothing
about this homie shit
you're talking about.
It's hard to not...
It's hard to not...
You know what I mean?
15 homies is equal to three security?
In a sense,
like in a weird type
of explanation way of like...
When you have professional
trained security
that can legally possess whatever they need to legally possess.
You don't need a lot of them.
I feel justice.
You don't need a lot of them.
I feel justice.
Right.
That's what I'm saying.
If I got three security guards and I'm by myself,
I feel justice comfortable if I'm with 10, 12 of my homies.
But listen,
do you see a lineup like this, right?
And maybe see somebody else on the lineup that...
No, this don't even look like a messy lineup.
This don't look like... messy lineup this don't look like
no
it don't look like
to us or the police
yeah I was gonna
say I can see mess
I guarantee you
somebody get arrested
I guarantee you that
and that's not me
it's a safe bet
yeah it's a safe bet
listen I've seen enough
I'm not
oh and speaking of
22 G's has just been
arrested right
and he's on the Sunday
yes lineup he may be released arrested right and he's on the Sunday yes
lineup
he may be released
before this
he's already
he's already
he's back in the
creeps
so the fair's gonna be
there for sure
yeah but wait time out
if he gets released
you think he still comes
to do this show
with all that extra heat
if he on bail
in this New York
when did performing
become like
might do it
might have to do it
I need the bag
whatever I'm getting paid for that
when did this become
so like creepy
yo I can't remember
the last major festival
that happened
and some type of
arrest or some type of
bullshit
didn't happen
when did
when did writing lyrics
become a Matlock episode
that part
when niggas start telling
on their side we know I'm just saying performing is the same shit it's become a Matlock episode. That part. When niggas start telling on their side.
No, we know.
I'm just saying,
performing is the same shit.
It's the same shit.
They didn't tell us
how they got that Roddy Ricch car.
They didn't tell us
why they pulled him over either.
They said checkpoint.
They said checkpoint.
They said checkpoint.
I think he had security,
like hired security
and they saw
whatever they saw in the car
and then told...
They saw a gun in the car and then told yeah
what the fuck
excuse me
see what I
see what I read
said checkpoint
yeah I saw a checkpoint
but even that
sounded like bullshit
y'all at a festival
y'all don't even have
the time to check
all this shit
I went to summer jam and my African driver got me everywhere I needed to go just cause y'all don't even have the time to check all this shit I went to Summer Jam
and my African driver
got me everywhere
I needed to go
just cause y'all don't even
have the time to check
some of this shit I'm saying
yo you an artist
yeah
alright go ahead
y'all ain't got time
to vet shit out
I don't wanna see
tell me what 22 G's
was arrested for
hold on Joe
that's the problem now though
because there's been
instances where they haven't vetted shit
out and shit pops off inside the venue.
Oh, nah, not just that.
You was dolo.
So now they really trying to crack down on not, we got to stop it before it gets in here.
Yeah.
Were you dolo when you went to Summertown?
Yeah.
So you, I'm just saying, so two dudes.
All right, go ahead.
When it's 17 little motherfuckers in the car with seven ounces of weed burning at one time,
it's a different ballgame.
Hey, what if I knew how to make a sneaker bomb?
Then what?
You would have ticked in there.
I'm just saying, but it's way less inconspicuous than seven, eight jokers in the suburb.
A Brooklyn-based drill rapper was arrested after landing at JFK Airport Sunday morning
and later charged
with attempted murder
in connection to a March shooting.
Rapper 22G's,
whose real name is,
I'm not saying,
faces charges from a March 6th
early morning shooting
inside a Marine Park
Brooklyn party hall
where a 31-year-old man
suffered a gunshot wound
to his left foot.
The victim had provided a description of the
suspect before he was transported to brookdale university hospital for treatment he better not
have died he didn't he's just a little pal pal get away from me pal that's below the waist bro
why they trying to charge my son with attempted murder he shot that man in his foot if he shot
him allegedly i mean there's one way to look at it. That's not true. Allegedly. That don't mean nothing. From what I thought,
below the waist is not like a...
If you let off,
ain't no guarantee
you knew where you
was going to hit him at.
Shout out to police listening.
I mean,
hey,
I don't know the nigga.
I don't know the nigga.
You used to be in the side, man.
I don't know the nigga.
I don't know the nigga.

overheard some of their plans in the bathroom i went i went home i got a home nigga and they got
hey oh shit the street lights on it looks like my kill oh i'm joking around but i shouldn't joke
about this the 24 year old rapper was also charged with second degree assault two counts
of second degree criminal possession of a weapon and first degree reckless endangerment
and while we're on this subject or off of this subject
what I've learned over the weekend
and I probably knew this already
Joseph Anthony
Budden Jr. me
I am not built
to watch
murder
on video
on my phone
I ain't yo
that little clip that went around and niggas in the pharmacy on video on my phone. I ain't, yo. Nah, it should be a little disturbing. I ain't.
I don't watch it.
That little clip that went around
and niggas in the pharmacy.
Did y'all see it?
Yes.
If you didn't see it,
you probably don't want to see it.
From New York?
In New York.
They did, that was ridiculous.
That was crazy.
West Coast rapper.
The West Coast drill rapper,
something like that,
the young kid, right?
That was stupid.
I want to get his name right.
Man.
That was really really really dumb
or maybe I'm not street
so I don't understand
if you
they wanted his chain
he didn't give his chain up
so they butchered him
they slaughtered him
like stood over top
and let me not even
stood over top him like he was a op
and let me not say they
cause it was one person
see and that's the other part
where that stuff gets confusing
you go out and do some shit
with a group and then one nigga do something that nobody planned on him doing
right but now it's us and now it's yeah now we gotta wear that now we call defendants yeah
i sympathized with that that young man that was on the ground running for his life
and my thing was and this is maybe where i'm old school y'all beat him up already you won
he's on the floor y'all jumped him kicked him
nigga grabbed the umbrella did everything he had to do with the umbrella there was no need to kill
anybody but i say that it's someone that's not a killer ain't trying to be one ain't trying to
think in the mind of one but that was a lot come in nigga come on come on y'all, come on, y'all family. Come on inside.
The main over here, Mike.
This is Mike.
Hey.
Let's go, D.
Okay, now listen.
Podcast, I love a mess.
This is great, this is great.
Nah, I love a good mess, yo.
Listen, yo, we're moving.
We're moving.
We've been in Queens for seven years.
We're moving to Jersey to accommodate niggas like,
not even niggas like y'all,
but niggas that come with like 40 and 50 niggas.
We want to accommodate.
The check got real big
for the next month.
We're going to accommodate
40, 50 niggas
that sound like a comp.
I mean,
we just want to make people
comfortable, Jim.
Comfort.
So now,
this is probably the last time
that we cramped in here
like sardines,
but I'm honored here.
We have Jim, who's been here before.
He knows it's tight in here, friend of the show.
And we have Mano, who I'm just such a friend with that I thought he was here before, and he never was.
I've been to his shit.
Both places.
So I'm honored.
Before you gentlemen say anything, I have to play music from you guys that I love.
gentlemen say anything i have to play music from you guys that i love yeah they told me i couldn't show love to your project because it's new york bias that's hate that's hate
jim yeah i'm getting back to this you're it seemed like for me you've taken a stance in opening verses hard.
It seemed like that's a conscious decision from you.
This came on and I was like, oh, shit.
He bugging out at the top of the verse.
Now the baby's going to enjoy it when he can.
Is that a conscious decision to open verses with just some flagrant shit
and then go?
Or is it just happening?
Yeah,
it's definitely conscious.
I mean,
you know,
bringing it to my attention,
Fred the Godson
used to bring that
to my attention.
Rest in peace.
I need that mic close to me.
He used to call me
Ricky Henderson.
You got to lead off,
capo.
You already know.
You got to lead off.
And that's,
I mean,
sure,
but Cam always said,
bro,
ain't no time
for tucking no rhymes.
Fit your hardest, and then you always going to be able to make a...
You dig?
You got to do it again.
You dig?
Don't tuck nothing.
Always put your best rhyme first.
Don't try to go as hard as you can off top.
It's like niggas that hold the big joker to the end of their hand.
Just play it.
Yes.
All right.
Let me get into a little bit of this.
Park's going to get A by his situation.
These niggas came with niggas with muscles.
Just like you would expect.
Fuck these niggas talking about what happened in the verses.
We be back to back in the world's trucks.
They look like herses.
Fresh off that summer jam stage.
I got a chicken and a snack box.
I'm drunk in the front while I be dipping through the back box.
Them skeletons in my closet is the watches I got
Shit, I could've bought a house with this watch that I got
You catch us running up in all the populous spots, bitch
If it's up, then it's up, we start popping them shots
Got a couple shooters, they gon' drill for me
They old copper one, they gon' kill for free
I still bangin' B as the G-L-T
But none of you motherfuckers is ill as me
Call the mill in the V
That's at least 500, what I'm willing to be DJ so bad, y'all Call the mill in the V That's at least 500 what I'm willing to be
I forgot about the chain, I said mill in the V
And this bitch lost her mind, she start feeling the G
It's the lobby boys for me
Yeah
Can't play with it though
Lobby
I'll say this respectfully.
I don't know when y'all did this song,
but by this point in the album,
it sounds like you got tired of him opening verses that way.
This actually was the first song.
For real?
It's the first song.
It's the Lobby Boys.
It's the first song we did.
Oh, so that was that.
That was the first song.
This first song, Energy.
Can't play with it though. I was like, oh, this how we coming. This how we coming. Cool, this that was that. That was the first song. This first song, Energy. Can't play with it, though.
I was like, oh, this how we coming.
This how we coming.
Cool, this what we doing.
Uh-oh.
As soon as the city lit, we light up the city, bitch.
Full time as the Lamborghinis, we hop out the silly shit.
I brought out a pretty bitch.
I brought out a pretty bitch.
I'm standing on top of phantoms.
I'm all on my ditty shit.
My wax cover my charms.
Tattoos cover my scars. I look up in the sky, hope we got a lot of rappers in the room
I hear it's getting hard, they coming with rapid terror
And my niggas, they getting charged, pretty bars, it's kinda cold
My heart is made of stone, I wake up in penthouses
Them strippers just took my soul, my women is on a pole
My homies is on parole, I slap box the devil at night
We blow for blow
Okay
Jim before you got here
I was talking to Maino
Yeah
About street niggas with Stalus
Yeah
Your niggas been looking good
We look the fuck good
Your niggas been coordinating
Yeah
This leather shorts
Leather vest
Look at my guy.
Look at this.
You know I changed.
All right, let me ask you.
You know I changed.
Get to him, Ice.
No, because we bought this.
Get right to him.
Yeah, talk to him.
I saw a lot of leather at Summer Gym.
No, no, and before.
And before.
I feel like that's Jim's idea.
A lot of leather made by Prada.
Yeah.
It's a big difference when you talk about leather,
a leather that was made by Prada
but listen though
listen to Ice
all supergroups
wear black leather bro
we're a supergroup
it's a black leather thing
and don't forget
the black leather
that's right
we can't
all supergroups
for real
it's a supergroup
wear black leather
you can't be a supergroup
if you're not
wearing black leather
maybe that's what
Slaughterhouse fucked up at
they ain't had no leather they ain't had at. Y'all ain't had no leather.
Y'all ain't had no leather.
Had no leather.
Well, no,
Joe had the leather vest.
That's true.
That's true.
He tried,
you know what I mean?
You gotta have leather, man.
Tell me how,
tell me how,
let me get the journalist
shit out of the way.
Tell me how you guys
decided to form a group.
This super group
you speak of.
Yeah, give me that.
Define super group.
Whose idea was that?
Listen, we talked about this so many years ago.
Capo came up with the Lobby Boys.
I'm going to be honest because this is back when Rose and Puff were saying that they was the Bugatti Boys.
So I sent them a song one day.
I said, yo, jump on that for me.
Sent it back to me.
He said, shout out to the Bugatti Boys. But me and Mano, we the Lobby Boys. And I sent him a song one day I say you'll jump on that for me sent it back to me said shout out to the Bugatti boys but me and Mano we the
lobby boys and I understood him we come from that content we come from that that
that that that that pain that that you know that we have that in common you
know that lost and them tenant been buildings those ghettos it didn't matter
that I was from Brooklyn and he was from Harlem because it's the same thing it
don't matter the ghetto has those things in common where we congregate as young black men and Hispanic men.
We're the same struggles.
Up against the same adversity.
So when he said that, I got it.
And we talked about doing Lobby Boys Project back then, way back then.
But I'm telling you right now, it wouldn't have been the same.
We in a way better place.
Yeah. Okay. I respect that.
So y'all get together.
Y'all say, I'm going to do a group
and we're going to make some music.
Super group.
My bad. Respectfully.
So y'all get together
and say, we're going to do a super group.
At this point, is it we go in
and make the music or
off namesake, we'll get the deal? No, no, no. We're going to do a super group. At this point, is it we go in and make the music or off namesake,
we'll get the deal?
No, no, no.
We're going to make the music.
See, the first thing we said
was we were going to make
10 records in 10 days.
10 days be,
and it was done.
We had more than 10 in 10, though.
But by the fourth record,
I kind of pulled Mane to the side.
This shit sounding way iller
than I thought it was gonna sound you got something
keeping it a buck like you did like this shit is sounding like we really might have something
let's just dig in so from the 10 days concept to putting it out last summer and once or not
let's really let's do some shit and it went from just staying in the studio all through the summer and all through the winter.
And getting some of the illest verses and beats and produce.
It just was so organic.
And the best thing about this shit was that we called the studio The Lobby.
We named it The Lobby.
And everybody that's on this album had to come to The Lobby to do their music.
There wasn't no MP3s.
There wasn't no Zooms.
Everybody came.
That's what's missing a lot.
Everybody came for action.
You heard?
And everybody was fully equipped.
Nobody was slacking.
Nobody needed no extra time.
Nobody took it.
It was a great, organic, lit album.
See now, because a lot of people don't know.
I don't think I've been in the studio with Mame when he did a verse,
but I've been in the studio with Jim.
You record pretty quick.
That can be pressure for the other rapper in the room.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
For the guy that is going, in 15 minutes, I'm in the booth with this.
Right.
But me and Jim was already having a process that already was
feeling good already a lot of times i was i was doing the records early before he got there because
i wanted to i wanted to have i wanted him to have like different options to choose from like here i
got like i got three four records jim tell me which one you think you feeling. Let's try this one.
Let's try to, I would like try to have like hooks done.
I would try to have the idea of the record already done.
So by the time he come down, he like, okay.
But man is quick.
Man is quick.
Like we could go in, a record would get done in less than an hour.
Yeah.
You heard?
And that's pretty good.
I'm just talking about it could get done in less than a half an hour.
But you dig?
Like we've done records in 20 minutes. We've done records. But it could get done less than a half an hour. But you dig? Like, we've done records in 20 minutes.
We've done records.
But on average, we're doing a record an hour.
So we do three, four records a night when we're in the studio.
So somebody like me hears your project and says, damn, they snatched every hot beat.
Like, you niggas ears for beats is understated.
But y'all snatched every hot one that you niggas ears for beats is understated but y'all snatched
every hot one
that we would go after
so it's like
how do you do that
how can somebody
go grab the
uh
down bottom beat
it felt to me like
an evolution of mixtape
well
you know what I'm saying
but it's business
it was an album
so something had to get clear
all that got clear
all that got clear
everything got clear
that's why we
we purposely said Dana took the time to make sure all of these records get clear. All that got clear. All that got clear. All that got clear. Everything got clear. That's why we purposely said, Dan, it took the time to make sure all of these records
get clear properly so we could put out the album that we wanted to put out and not a
second rate version of our first, you know what I mean?
Can you tell us how you were able to do that?
So look, the sound that you're hearing is a sound that I feel like that nobody really
was really doing right if
you really really listen to what it is is that we didn't just sample it and just play over like we
sampled a lot of the horns and put it under modern drums when you hear down bottom it's under modern
trap drums and bass line yeah so what the plan was was to to to kind of bridge the gap between
classic and in fresh right now
what's going on right now so that way we had the best of both worlds like it's
young at the same time but there's somebody that's 30 plus it's like yo
this that other joint like so you kind of get both that's how like you hear
that what the records were like five you'll find it like that yeah it's not
like it don't take you away from that nostalgia of what you're hearing with the sounds.
Exactly, yes.
But bring Fabio,
he right now.
You hear that clear.
And it's still got that sound,
that current.
Because the drums,
we was modern,
we was taking those beats
and I would tell my producers,
like, listen,
modernize the drums.
If we modernize the drums
and the bass line,
they gonna,
because that's what
they understand, right?
The horns or the piano is something that they might know, but the 20-year-old is not going
to know the sound, but he's going to respond to the drums and the bass line.
Man.
You're getting both generations.
Here you go.
You're getting both generations.
Yes.
Because the younger ones, that's what they hear.
Exactly.
They don't know what down bottom meant to us.
The more interesting part for me, though, is because y'all still like three og like east coast you know i mean it's like how y'all didn't change
like i'm we talking about the sound i'm talking about y'all sound y'all don't change y'all sound
to feel like y'all still rap right right still which is very that's so same pace same age same
pace same energy i mean and it's still high level rapping though right Once y'all did it I was like It doesn't make sense
A lot of sense
Like I told y'all before
If you went back
Jim
Your album
We Set The Trends
It was a little bit of that
On there
And it was like
Yo he was able to
Step onto
A drill sound
But keep up
And sound modern
Still be Jim
Yeah still be Jim
Like it don't sound like
I'm trying to be somebody else
That's the key
Yeah a lot of people
Can't keep up
A lot of OG's
Can't keep up
It's a handful
They not that good though
Fuck no
Hell no
It's a medium
You gotta come to
You dig
You gotta know how to
Me in the middle
Still reinvent yourself
And be in the middle
Yeah we not chasing
But we also not gonna be
Stuck in the past
You dig
I'm not gonna be
I'm not trying to get caught
Out there like Special Ed
and Daddy Kane and all. I'm trying to
keep it pushing and no disrespect to nobody, but
you know what I'm trying to say? I'm trying to keep
it moving forward. I'm trying to reinvent myself every time
I come to the drawing board.
I don't want to be...
You know what I'm saying.
Can I say something real quick
though? I just want to throw this out there because
it's somebody sitting on the couch just not saying something? I just want to throw this out there because it's somebody sitting on the couch just not saying something.
And I just want to put this out there.
I asked Joe Button on numerous occasions to pull up to the lobby to be on the Lobby Boys album.
You got scared?
Yes.
Nah, it's true.
I said, yo, come on.
Let's go.
Oh my God.
I want to come to the studio
and get that energy.
The problem is
they had that energy.
They had that energy in there.
I'm home on my little
expensive couch
in my robe.
I'm turning my phone. These niggas is in there. These niggas turning up. I'm turning my phone.
These niggas is in there.
These niggas turning up.
I'm like,
yo, that shit sound hard.
Nah, we were having fun.
I'm a champion.
Can't wait to buy it.
Yeah.
We really was having fun.
Nah, but that's how I knew
that y'all had some shit.
Because niggas was coming
to the studio
to hear.
Like way before it was time.
And that's tough to do.
Y'all think that that adds, right?
Like when the nigga really be there.
That does.
It's competitive.
It does.
We all from the bottom like, oh, that nigga said, oh, hold up.
Give me a minute.
Let me go.
It does.
Yo, look, let me tell you.
That shit felt like we was in the playoffs every night.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Exactly.
Because everybody got to show up to the game.
When Benny was in there, when Benny came, right?
Which y'all did.
So what happened is, he didn't even tell me Benny was coming.
Benny and them niggas just walked in.
Set him right up.
Okay, cool.
Okay, this is what it is.
It's on today.
So we sitting around.
Niggas like pull up a beat.
So I keep a batch of beats.
I pulled up the beat.
We all agreed on the beat.
We started writing.
Now I'm saying,
man,
I'm saying,
man,
I'm saying,
okay,
hold on,
like,
I can't,
I can't even play with this shit,
my nigga,
like,
I gotta like,
so I tell my,
I pull one of my producers aside, I say, yo, listen, I'm, I'm almost ready though, bro. He like, I gotta like, so I tell my, I pull one of my producers
inside,
I say,
yo,
listen,
I'm almost ready though,
bro.
He said,
if you ready,
go.
He said,
I don't know.
First?
The first one done?
I wanted to hear
what Benny got to say.
I rap with Capo every day,
so this is my partner.
I already know,
we mob deep in this shit.
Like,
we already got a system.
But this nigga Benny here.
Y'all let her kill it.
So I'm saying, yo, look.
I said, yo, this is what I'm saying.
He said, that shit hard.
He said, but listen, my nigga.
What you want to do?
Oh, wait, you spit your verse to the-
To him on the low like this.
Shout out to the nigga that I played with.
He said,
yo,
man,
go ahead,
my nigga,
this your house,
this the lobby.
I said,
you know what?
I need more than that.
You right.
Fuck.
And I went in
and it just so happened
and it came together
because that first
two bars that I said,
shout out to the niggas
that I got out of the bar
with,
we used that as the hook.
That was really part of my lines.
That was really part of my rap.
So it was crazy, though.
It was sessions like that, but still shopping still.
My nigga like, you in there with spinners.
He's like, you got to get busy, nigga.
You know what I mean?
J-Man, how you felt when Benny walked in?
It's go time.
It's go time.
We're going to see the day. It was a great game. It's a time It's go time We gonna see the day
It was a great game
It was
It was a great game
That's how I take
That's how I take
That's how I take
I take rap like basketball
I look at that
It's disrespectful
When the nigga
Mail you the verse
Nah
I don't know
It's just
It's just what we did
Was so not normal
In today's day
Of making music
That's something that
Was done so often
when we first got
into the game
so for us to
actually be in the studio
with the artists
that was the flyest shit ever
when Styles P came through
that was another
crazy session
yeah
he went crazy
that was another
crazy session
that just popped up
she called me
she said yo
I'm on my way to the studio
I just found the Jim Jones
I said alright
come on I'm here
but I feel like
it was magic though though, my nigga.
Conway record ain't, we still got a Conway record.
But everybody that came in that studio.
Everybody came.
The shit was dope.
When Fab and Dave came through, always a dope session.
Yeah, definitely.
Even Young Blue.
Young Blue.
I ran into Young Blue at a bowling alley.
He said he was going to be here the next day.
I said, yo, you know, pull up.
He pulled up.
Everybody, it happened organically it was magic bro like it was like i don't know if we planned it that way but it was just like yo we got the best room in the city it's like a theater pull up
we gonna you know it was right it was a vibe it was a vibe for the music like if you are artists
that do music bro it was a vibe It was fun
It was no way
You could've come up
With no shit
You got all the niggas in there
You got Brooklyn niggas in there
And the pressure was on
Cause it was a bunch of real
People in there
So it was like
They waiting for you to perform
It was really like
A basketball game
This arena
And people sitting in there
By the 30s and 40s
They know we about to
Go in the booth
Niggas just waiting
On them
The niggas be like
Yo I'm going in the hole
Everybody be like Stuck You come out Niggas be like, yo, I'm going in the hole. Everybody be like, I'm stuck.
You come out, niggas be like, oh, you got that shit on.
Niggas just sitting around like a nigga scored a three at the bottom.
Oh, you're so crazy.
I'm not going to lie.
I miss those type of sessions, though.
You heard?
That's how shit.
That's how shit was, though.
It was action-packed.
And it was like, it was vibe.
It was like a ball game.
But it felt natural.
The pressure was to perform.
But it felt good, though.
Like, you know, it was the homies in there.
You know, if you drink, that was there for you.
If you smoke, that was there for you.
You know, everything that was there for you.
You know what I mean?
We ate, and, you know, we laughed, and we bonded.
You know what I mean?
And it just felt good.
Say what?
Say what?
Now you know. Now you Say what? Now you know.
Now you know me.
Now you know me.
And I will say that the women were with me.
Please.
Of course.

Nobody looks at Jim like that.
The 30 women that were sitting in the back there were always with me.
Yes.
Please specify.
Yeah, specify.
I got to specify. That's Germaniac
You're a little Germaniac
You're a short for maniac
Oh no he told you the whole album
But Jim
He told you the whole album
He told you on every verse on this album
Every song
Every verse on this album
Y'all fucked the escort
I fucked the stripper
I fucked the bartender
But then on every verse too
Hey that last breakup hurt me
Whoa
That one.
Yeah.
See, I'm listening to y'all lyrics.
He need the pills to get over that.
No, no, no.
But honestly, I'm listening to y'all lyrics.
He need the pills to get over that.
You know the thing, man.
It's release.
But I felt bad.
Before you start, I felt bad.
Like when I'm listening to the lyrics and I hear that that's like a prominent point that you are making in verses.
I'm like, I've seen this nigga
made a million times
and I never thought
to even think
hey I wonder how
he's handling a breakup
like that's a common thing
that you think
with one of your niggas
after a breakup
right
I never thought
and then I'm listening
to this album
and it sounded like
oh he handling
shit like me
not good
it's not too well it looks good on the, he handling shit like me. Not good.
It's not too well.
It looks good on the outside.
There's no tough ass nigga here.
Crumbling on the inside.
Ryan McKnight on the late night.
And doing bad shit as we go.
Oh, man.
Can it kind of make you more empty a little bit? Yeah.
I mean, you know, the thing about the music and in life, like for me, like the music always been like a release.
You know what I mean?
Sometimes you get caught up
in a life,
in a lifestyle
and you get caught up
in the moments.
Sometimes I've been
caught up in moments
that I just didn't
want to let go.
You know what I mean?
This nigga is...
Yeah.
I'm letting him
get his shit on.
I've been caught up
in moments...
Nah, get your shit on.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I know. I'm not going to go over there. I'm not going to go over there. I'm not going know. I know.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I'm not going to go over there.
I'm not going to go over there.
I'm not going to go over there.
Please.
I'm not.
Listen, but check this out, though.
Like, moments, right?
Because I had this conversation with one of my women friends.
And she was like, yo, you're talking all this stuff.
You're talking crazy.
And I'm saying, don't take it all literal.
Right?
I didn't literally,
you know,
lick that pussy
in her kid's room.
That wasn't literal.
That wasn't literal.
It's not literal.
I fell asleep,
she took me home,
I licked the pussy
in the kid's room.
It was the kitchen.
It was the kitchen.
All right, now,
this is a great point.
This is the problem
we have with black art.
Right,
they take them too literal. They take things too literal. Too literal. It's not so, it's art. Yeah, this is a great point. This is the problem we have with black art. Right, they take it too literal.
They take things too literal.
Too literal.
So it's art.
Yeah, don't go so literal.
It's all art.
It's freedom of speech and it's art.
And people, like...
Listen, we talk about that here all the time,
about what they're doing with lyrics.
Right.
And what we think about.
All these cases and shit.
Nah, nigga, being up here,
you on this motherfucker four times, five times a week. You running out of content. Nah, nigga, being up here, you on this motherfucker
four times, five times a week.
You running out of content.
Yo, yo, when the last time
you ate that bitch?
You gotta come up with something.
Whoa.
Shorty can't take it all,
literally.
Why was that the first?
Whoa, he's eating.
You're eating?
You're eating?
Yeah, he's eating.
You definitely eating.
Yeah, but listen.
I think that green eye
is the sign of eating.
You went right there.
You're vegan, my nigga.
You're vegan.
He went straight to the box.
But the other thing is like,
when I say something like,
waking up with strippers, man, I'm getting too old for that.
It comes from a real place.
Sometimes when we question
what we got going on in life.
Is it literal or not literal?
No, not literal.
But it comes from a real place.
Everything comes from a real place.
It's Always a nigga
With an old Batman suit
Your Batman suit is old
For real
Your Batman suit is
Malfunctionist
Right now as we speak
Yo listen
See
What I'm saying is that
Coming from a real place
But don't take it too literal
What I'm saying is that
As men
We on our journey right
We look at ourselves
In the most times
And we say,
damn, I need to do more of this.
I need to slow down on that.
I need to make
some sort of improvisions
on certain things in life.
And that is weird.
Sometimes the thought comes,
this is partying,
it's pain at the same time.
And it's like,
we functioning and dysfunctioning
at the same time.
We up and we down
and we laughing.
Bingo's a potter, man.
That's what he's talking about.
I'm sick of this shit.
I'm telling you, man.
Nigga, what happened in Miami, man?
Can you tell us?
Which time?
You said it in a verse.
No, the time.
Which time in Miami?
When I woke up on my,
the Rolex got missing?
Yeah, that's the time.
Oh, yeah, that's what happened.
I was high for two mollies,
doing wrong, right?
Doing wrong, right? Doing wrong. It shouldys. Doing wrong. Right? Doing wrong.
Right?
Doing wrong.
It should have just been one.
Right?
Doing wrong.
That's different from when Ricky lost your auto mall?
Yeah, that's different times.
Because he lost it.
That wasn't mine.
He lost.
That wasn't on me.
That's a lot of loss.
Yeah, it took losses in this game.
This is life.
This is a journey.
But what I'm telling you is that this, I was at a place in my life where i was at like a like a confused state and doing things that i probably
never did or shouldn't have been doing and i was caught up in the moment and i was caught up in
life and and it something happened to me in miami that you know i was at a bo Trap, went back, had the room.
Bad start.
Yeah, I was out of my mind, passed out, woke up, Rolex gone.
And I had to really look at myself and say,
yo, he forgot he hit me and all that.
Because the lady was on Instagram talking about,
this is not my nigga.
This is not my nigga.
So I had to really look at myself for what it's worth.
Like, my nigga,
you got the opportunity to be great.
This is not great.
You calling yourself a king,
but this ain't king shit.
You understand?
What's up?
Zip my body.
None of this shit.
Zip my...
None of this shit.
I change.
Hey, that's my shit. I most certainly change
I change everyday
I tell you one thing
and I never was a drug
I never did drugs but I did like Molly
right
which is a drug
I understand that
I'm trying to but he going crazy
this is at a specific time
better ask the question though
this is at a specific time
let him get you out of there
let him get you
get the fuck out of there
get the fuck out of there
get the fuck out of there
nah but you know what
listen I got you
I got you
I got you
I'm trying to
I'm trying to describe
a specific time in my life
nah but the dude
that never did drugs
and then does drugs
that shit usually
don't go the greatest
and especially if Molly
is the drug you start with.
Right.
I'm specifying
a specific time
in my life.
It's a moment.
I look at this
different for Mano.
I look at this
different for Mano, right?
This is why I bring this up.
No matter what you say
right now,
it's going to come off
to me as a blessing, right?
That's right.
What the fuck
is going on here?
That's right.
What?
Oh, come on.
All right.
I figured that by the best. No, this is why I bring it up, What? Oh, come on. All right. I figured that by the best.
Excuse me.
Did you think I'd lift weights?
No, this is why I bring it up, right?
Because whatever you say right now, I take it as a blessing.
On this pod, we've been talking about discernment in hip hop when it comes to the women that we sleep with because of the results that we see it happen.
Right?
Right.
There's been a topic here.
Right.
Where the lineup.
You just got to be weary of the lineup
at all times
so alright
she took a watch
or a watch got missing
that's right
that's all that got missing
and thank the lord
thank the lord
those are blessings
those are lessons
yeah yeah yeah
those are lessons
and it took me
having to
you know
learn that lesson
to get my
my act together
so sometimes
the lessons come hard
right
it comes whoa that was that was yo that was that lesson to get my act together so sometimes the lessons come hard right whoa
but you understand what I'm saying though you see how Brooklyn Harlan tension existed right
that was crazy though but you understand sometimes the lessons come and it smacks you in the face and you're just like, whoa. Come on, yo.
All right, we out.
We out.
We out.
We out.
You chill out.
You chill out.
You chill out.
I got to just.
Jim.
No, no, we done with you.
We are done with you.
We are done.
That's crazy.
Bro, that's crazy.
You know what I'm saying, though, nigga.
No, no, we don't.
Yeah, this is bad.
Yeah, that was bad.
Jim, before y'all got here, Ice was saying, Ice brought your name up.
He asked me some stupid question about the King of New York, and I hate that question.
I don't give a fuck about who the King of New York is.
But he did mention your name in that conversation.
Let me ask you, gentlemen, what King of New York means, and did y'all ever put anybody in that in your life?
I don't really play with the king
thing i mean i like how main will put it we all kings you did we all kings in our own right but
that's the problem with our been problem in our city from the get-go is that
for the for what i can remember has always been somebody to take claim of they was the king of new york from the kumo d in them eras from back from
caris one correct all them all the way up to now so this is what me and mano are doing is breaking
that stigma of it's not one person that runs this motherfucker it's all of us that make this shit
run together you dig like and we bring the unity together he He's from Brooklyn, Fulham. Everybody know that.
And the way we met is even iller.
So what we showing people is cut the bullshit, bro.
Let's get a dollar together.
I like it.
I like it.
I'm glad.
I like it.
That's what's been missing in New York.
That's what you think is a fall of our position?
You know, we used to run hip hop in New York. We now have you think is a fall of our position? You know,
we used to run hip-hop
in New York.
We now have
kind of succumbed
to Atlanta.
Them niggas work together.
Everybody succumbs
to Atlanta.
Atlanta took that.
But they work together.
Because they work together
and even in the midst
of most of them niggas
having their own quads,
they still figure it out
to make it,
to push the same
envelope forward.
We don't do that.
We let it be known we got a problem with him.
It's our turn.
I'm the king of this motherfucker, you heard?
And that comes with so much.
You dig?
That's one thing I've always watched is that comes with so much.
Heavy as the hay.
Right, because we perpetuate it.
It can only be one king, and everybody's just saying, I'm the king.
I'm the king. I'm the king. But we like saying this is I'm the king I'm the king
I'm the king
but we like
yo look bro
you are the king
but I'm the king too
and he a king too
so when you see
Jim Jones
and Mano
and Fabulous
and Dave East
and this one and that one
when you see us all together
none of us is less king
everybody's a king
right
I feel like
that'll help
turn the tide
on some of the
on the way
that we looked at
and the way we look
at each other
because
we don't gotta stand
on each other
to get money
and
it's
we team up
we can get more money
right
for sure
that's the part
that's always skipped
and that's just
outside of hip hop
that's in black
black fight them deals get big as a unit see what I'm telling you we come together like it's like That's the part that's always skipped. And that's just outside of hip-hop. That's in black culture. That's anything.
Them deals get bigger as a unit.
So I'm telling you, we come together.
It's like, yo, we get money.
So much has happened in our favor for us doing this album together.
Don't forget, Mando has platinum records.
I have platinum records.
He has his own fan base.
I have my own fan base.
We've both been in this game.
So everything is working together for us now.
Niggas that didn't like me, but they fuck with Mando now,
fuck with me because of me and Mando.
Niggas didn't like Jim?
It's just now.
Hypothetically, you know what I mean?
You know what I mean?
Niggas that didn't like Mando.
Oh, musically, musically, musically.
I'm talking about musically.
I've actually seen a couple of them.
No, no, I understand.
Street music, it all works one-on-one and shit like that.
It worked in our favor.
The opportunities come even, Marcus.
I wanted to ask y'all.
Y'all have y'all playoff experience in the studio,
having a blast, turning up, your niggas in there,
swimming in there, we having a blast, right?
But at some point, the music is done.
And now it's time to put our brains together and say,
all right, what do we do with this?
Did y'all face any, Did y'all face any Did y'all face any
Anything from like
Music executive type people
That try to age us out?
No
Nah
We ain't
We don't
We ain't hear
We ain't hear nothing
Nah
We're not even
We're not even
We're not even there
They couldn't
They wouldn't
They wouldn't dare
Matters of fact
We don't put ourselves in that position.
They can't.
We're not that.
I totally don't even believe in that.
I totally, absolutely throw that whole thought away.
That shit is not even in the brain.
We age less.
None of that shit means nothing.
The only requirement is that we make dope music.
Say it again.
We fly as fuck.
We look good as fuck.
Say it again.
This is not sports.
I'm not running up and down a car.
Okay?
This is music.
And the reason why you didn't have a 30-year-old rapper 25 years ago
is because the coach himself wasn't old enough.
True story.
You understand?
You got grandmothers that's 50 years old right now
that was 30 years old 20 years ago that absolutely
loved hip-hop.
They didn't stop becoming fans because they got older.
And that's a fact.
Right.
Say it again.
Actually, they really want to fuck with this more than the new shit.
Yeah.
Hell yeah.
Yo, listen.
The music don't change.
If you, like, everybody in this culture that was born into hip hop, it don't change.
What else is they going to listen to?
The same way that our mothers and our grandmothers listened to the music in the 70s and that's
the music that they love.
That's what they love.
What do we know?
People that love R&B, the old R&B and new R&B, that's what they on.
Hip, you born into hip hop, that's it.
That's it.
That's it.
That's it.
That's like religion. religion like you don't know
nothing else
and you keeping up
with the times
you're not changing
the station
your station is still
hot 97
it's still
power 105
like it's
that's forever
that's all you know
but also
I gotta give you
two gentlemen credit
right
because y'all are
two of the
elder statesmen
that seem to make
it a point to fuck with the youth.
Yes, indeed.
You kind of got that.
You don't have to.
You don't have to.
You want to give credit where you don't have to.
You hurt yourself when you don't.
You don't have to do anything.
I don't know that either.
You don't have to do anything.
But in my position, I do it because I didn't have niggas like me when I was coming up.
Man.
I have no guidance.
Me and Cam learned by going up against a brick wall.
We learned by all the mistakes that we made.
We didn't have nobody telling us what to do, what to do.
I'm not saying I needed that, but that shit would have been dope to help us from bumping
our head all the time and shit like that.
So in turn, these are the things that I want to school the youngers on how to wick your
ass game and how to get them some money and how to do this i could vouch for both these niggas
you know i mean like being a a younger rapper you get i'm saying like not even because they're his
like i'm not to say no names i've come across certain rappers where you'll see a nigga out
and you know a nigga know you and the nigga just keep it pushing jim pull up to the proper jim is
on the roof in north whitney we shot our video on the roof in north jim ain't pull up to the property Jim is On the roof in Newark With me We shot our video On the roof in Newark
Jim ain't pull up with 50 niggas
I mean he pull right up
We looking down
You see the cars pull up like
Man see me in Shaw Hills Mall
I was on the exchange
Personal line
My phone ring his
It ain't never no
Weird shit
With certain niggas
You know what I mean
Like you can tell it's genuine
And they really like
Oh nah
Like you know what I mean
Like I always say
Like some niggas
You can tell they was there
These niggas was outside And they respect Younger niggas that nah. You know what I mean? I always say, some niggas, you could tell they was there. These niggas was outside,
and they respect younger niggas
that's outside.
You know what I mean?
So when a nigga see you,
it's like,
oh, nah, what's up, Lil?
As opposed to the other niggas
where I just don't feel like
really been there in the first place
to respect a nigga
that's outside like that
to where they show that type.
These niggas always show love.
I think them young niggas
fuck with them.
The game,
I always joke on the game is to be sold and I'm told.
Right.
And that shit is whack.
I always thought that was whack.
I always put my niggas onto all the games.
That's right, man.
I agree with you.
Sold and I'm told.
It's not my money.
That's right.
Let's all break the bank, bro.
Let's all figure it out.
And that's the older niggas mentality.
That's not my mentality.
I'm putting everybody on the game.
This is how I got the bag.
This is how you can get the bag.
This is how you can get the bag.
This is how you can get the bag. That's right. get the bag that's right that's been never but i never counted
videos like you stepped out of music years ago it was like yo i'm gonna go get the bag over here
but i'm gonna show little man how to get i'm gonna show yeah i never counted that saying as if they
meant it for us and our niggas though right what what's that what's that i did you see how many
niggas gave you alley-oop in this industry? Absolutely not. Oh, right then. So what you think that come from?
Yeah.
The game is to be sold, not told.
They can't make a dollar off of you.
Right.
I don't got to answer my phone.
I'm not even helping you.
Fuck a dollar with you, a dollar off you.
They need control.
Even if the dollars ain't coming from them,
they still not going to give you no bread.
It's crazy.
Yeah, it's terrible.
And as far as with the young niggas,
I love the young niggas.
And everybody know that.
I have more in common with them.
You understand, like, my whole upbringing, I was a young nigga that was in the street.
I went to prison when I was 16, 17 years old.
So I was a young nigga.
I identified with being a young nigga.
So, you know, when I say I got young nigga energy, I'm an OG by my felonies.
I mean that.
You understand?
So it's all about nigga energy. I'm an OG by my felonies. I mean that. You understand? So it's all about the energy.
It's all about the way you present yourself.
Because I was a young nigga in the street that was looking at older niggas like,
I respect you, but if you think you're going to come home on some other shit,
we're going to leave you.
So I understood because I've been that.
You see, it's just time, bro.
It's no such thing as age, bro.
It's just time, my nigga.
It's just some people been here longer than others.
Some people been here a short amount of time.
The only thing that matters is now.
But at what point did you, because we were talking off mic outside.
At what point in that journey that you speak of,
did you make the decision to stop trying to win the Real Nigga Awards
and put on the Hooochie daddy leather shorts?
Look at me, nigga.
The shades.
I don't wear hoochie daddy.
Look at me, nigga.
I don't do that.
Look at me, nigga.
Yeah, I'm not out here looking.
Listen, let me tell you something.
Man, I don't got hoochie daddy.
Fat nigga, man.
Man, I don't got hoochie daddy.
Yeah, yeah.
This nigga don't wear hoochie daddy.
He got the coochie daddy joints.
You, you should just be a little bit shorter.
I don't want to be fucking crazy,
nigga. You must be fucking crazy,
nigga. The fuck you talking about?
Nigga, listen, let me tell you.
Ask a serious question.
Look, look, look.
Yo, yo. What? Don't do that.
Y'all started this. You and your man

is called freaky shorts because his shorts
is too freaky. That was worse than... My nigga, you wear... First of all, hold on is called Freaky Shorts because his shorts are too freaky. That was the first of them.
My nigga, first of all, hold on.
You wear the same exact shorts that I wear.
The same exact type of shorts.
They above your knees, nigga.
Look at them.
Your knees is out.
You pulling them down.
You pulling them down.
You wearing the same type of shorts.
You know why you wear the same type of shorts?
Here you go.
Let me tell you why. Because they don't make them long no more. It is gym so funny. You know why you wear the same type of shorts? Here you go. Let me tell you why
because they don't make them
long no more.
It is what it is.
You cannot find
long shorts
in the store no more.
No, Jim had that
but they had doorstep.
Not good ones.
Nah, not good.
I've been shopping this weekend.
You cannot find them.
If they're not coming to you.
If they're not coming to you.

It's over.
They're above the knee
and then when you sit down
they raise up. It is what it is. It's nasty work. It's nasty. They above the knee. And then when you sit down, they raise up.
It is what it is.
It's nasty work out here.
I really feel like it's 83 out here.
It's all right.
I'm embracing it.
The Lakers versus Celtics.
I'm saying Thomas out here.
It's okay with me, though, nigga.
I'm embracing it.
It's all right.
You don't want to be caught out here looking like you just came home on work at least, nigga.
All them leg squats y'all do, y'all straight.
It's the niggas like. I ain't got no legs, man. It's the niggas about us that don't worry about it caught out here looking like you just came home on work at least, nigga. All them leg squats y'all do, y'all straight. It's the niggas like...

But before he said that.

Before he said that, he disrespected Bleak.
I didn't like that.
None of us like that, Jim.

Yo, we know.
Okay, then.
We didn't hear too much.
But this a run-up fade.
This ain't like Dipset get to run up and run a fade
with this. It's a run up fade.
Don't forget Juelz is a
multi-platinum artist. Not at all.
We spoke with all that. You did?
Every one of his singles went multi-
It's the too easy.
So
I mean the record's bleak. Is he gonna bring out
J for coming of Age?
He got to bring him out.
He got to bring him out.
He got to bring him out.
Coming of Age is coming on.
Hey, wait.
Hold on.
I see what's going on.
Coming of Age is coming on.
I'll get fucking poached.
Don't put me in the seat.
Bleak my man.
But Bleak, no, it's not.
Like, come on, bro.
It's the set. I feel like it's a good fight.
It's the set. Yo, but wait, now the set.
It's the set. I want to ask about that, too.
Today was my first time hearing that.
And how did that come up?
Summer Jam. Summer Jam. Oh, Summer Jam.
I saw you, yeah, when you posted, you said...
Bleak saved my ass one day in the Gus game. They had my ass
pent against the wall. Jay had me smothered
in the Gus game one day, bro.
I had to borrow like $12,000 from Bleak one night.
And look how you sit here
talking about it.
That's my man, bud.
Look how you sit here
talking about it.
You know, but we gonna get to
the factual, actual.
We like, all right.
The Versus went on with the Locks.
Shout out to the Locks.
Locks is the greatest group
of all time.
They definitely have a brotherhood
that's unmatched.
Not saying we don't have a brotherhood,
but everybody knows
there's been a lot of separations
and all type of discrepancies
and back and forth throughout the years.
So our brotherhood ain't as close-knit
as theirs is.
So when it comes to their performance,
when it comes to their stage presence,
when it comes to all that,
they got that intact.
You heard?
And you think that's where y'all lost it?
We some Harlem niggas that we just think we just could do anything we want and we're going to end up coming on top.
You heard?
I mean, I know why we lost, but I'm not getting into that part.
You heard?
You did?
Okay.
I got it.
You did?
I know why we lost.
I let somebody else tell the story.
I hope somebody be truthful sooner or later,
but I know why we lost.
It wasn't the music,
it wasn't the DJs
or anything.
It was a fair fight.
It got funky,
but...
What were we talking about?
I heard you on A&G
say that you wouldn't mind
some more versus smoke.
Yeah,
me, myself,
Jim Jones,
I do have a hell of a catalog
in New York City
if we're going to do
a versus in New York City.
Fucking right.
I can give a lot of people a headache. You fucking a catalog in New York City if we're going to do a versus in New York City. Fucking right. I can give a lot of people
a headache.
You fucking right.
In New York City,
I want anything to smoke
you could throw at me.
But there ain't nobody
to do that.
This is what I'm saying.
I got 90 smoke.
I got 2,000 smoke.
I got 210 smoke.
And now I got 2022 smoke.
I really want smoke in New York.
Listen, who do you want? You said the versus call. I really want smoke in New York. Listen,
who do you want?
Like,
you said the versus golf game.
Ain't nobody going to do it.
Put him up there.
Old nigga,
young nigga,
put him up there.
Who?
I don't know.
Yeah.
I don't know.
All jokes,
all jokes inside.
Put the jokes in the corner.
Who?
I can really do a record
from 2000 and just go straight to 2022.
I can't say Bleak knowing how you gentlemen feel.
I mean, Bleak don't want to smoke.
Banks?
What are you going to do?
Where are they going to end off at?
Banks?
Yo, I don't like how y'all talking about Bleak.
I'll be honest.
I don't like it.
I ain't talking about Bleak.
It's anybody.
You heard?
Jada.
Who else in New York?
Fab.
I'll do it with Fab.
But Fab already did one.
Fab got some hella New York records.
Fab might be the only one that I really...
Banks?
What's wrong with Banks?
I smoke Banks' head up right now.
I'm rolling.
I'm rolling, bro.
You beg to differ?
I'm rolling.
My shit is a whole...
Fab is a hard hit.
My shit is a whole...
Fab's records are hard.
My shit is a pack of...
Fab's records are hard.
My shit is a pack of shit is a whole My shit is a whole My shit is a package
For my ditty back
To my water
To the water
My shit is a package
Remember that
My shit just ain't the rap
It's just the package
When I come out
They want to see Capo
It's not too many niggas
That got that package
You know what's up
With y'all and G
I don't like you and Juelz
Targeting Banks
Titan Banks up is crazy
That's how crazy
No I don't mind
Who you think would win
I just don't like
How these niggas talk
Jim could talk
To things like that
To me
Juelz can't
2022
Yeah I would've sold on Juelz
Sam ain't no walking apart
I would've sold on Juelz
I said that
Jim and Banks are goody
I said that
I think Banks is a
I would've sold on Juelz
Jim and Banks are goody
End of that
What year they gonna stop at
Fuck you think This is a nostalgia era?
I'm not nostalgic, nigga.
I'm still lit.
It's a difference.
What year they gonna stop at?
Two more.
What year they gonna stop at?
What's the last record they did
that really meant something to somebody out here
that they can still get jiggy with?
Not to be disrespectful,
we talking hip-hop.
That's what we do, right?
Be factual.
Y'all here,
y'all the hip-hop almanacs and shit like
Let me know what I'm tripping you're we just talking about we just talking about
Versus so I want to buy a verse
Everybody has a pain to come up here say couple bugging the fucker. I smoke his head up
He know that I don't care how they talk. We talking about versus.
But I'm very confident
in where I'm at right now
in this game in New York City.
This is the what if.
You know how the comic books
used to do what if?
And the fans get to still play like that.
So there is a versus
that they talk about
that would be interesting.
You don't have to speak on it.
And of course,
it would never happen.
But they continuously float you in Cam's name.
That would be fire.
They continuously float that.
That would be fire.
And when they do, I do think it would be fire.
Cam's going to have a hard time, though.
He's going to have a hell of a hard time.
Very hard time.
And that's my heart.
Very hard time.
It's like us playing basketball back in the days.
In the back of the project.
He's going to have a hard time.
No, I agree.
And I'm not going to have an easy time.
I agree. Because Cam is very witty. You dig? He going to have a hard time. No, I agree. And I'm not going to have an easy time. I agree.
Because Cam is very witty.
You dig?
Cam know how to freestyle.
Cam got bars.
He started this shit
from back in the day
and has a hell of a fan base.
You heard?
And also,
he knows me a lot.
It's a hell of a battle.
You heard?
If we going to go
with showmanship
and all that,
it's going to be hell.
But Cam know.
Yo, what record
got Jim lit
in New York solo?
Certified Gangsters.
You know, I keep my eyes wide
east side high rise.
That's my first record.
Man, we was outside
jumping niggas to that shit.
Boy, you might be the reason
I was outside wildin'.
The very first record I dropped
was a bomb.
It tore the city up.
Heavy gangbanging culture.
That was my reply. I had the homies saying that. Tunnel, Speed, 100 Bloods with me, Oh my god Was a bomb Tore the city up Heavy gang banging culture You know what I'm saying
I had the homies saying that
Tunnel
Speed
100 Bloods with me
Every trip
Maino in there
Well he ain't make it to the tunnel
But when he came out
He was ice grilling and shit
Like he had a problem with me
All the time
He started making music
That's how he used to run around
That's how he used to run around
Pretty much
He was coming in the club
No no no
I understand that
And it was certified gangster But it was niggas on that record and running around. Pretty much. He was coming in the club in 30 deep. No, no, no. I understand that.
And it was Certified Gangster.
But it was niggas on that record.
Let me see.
I think the first solo record was Some in Miami.
No.
After that.
After Certified Gangster
was Some in Miami.
Some in Miami.
That was the one that was
Nationwide.
No, Baby Girl.
That's what I'm about to say.
Baby Girl.
I'd be like,
hold up.
Wait a minute.
That was the solo. That was the solo.
That was the solo that broke it.
There's nobody on this record but Jim Jones.
There's nobody who can attribute the win, right?
Because Certified Gangsters came, and that was just a slap.
But it was just a slap.
So niggas didn't really give Jim the credit, I feel like.
And then Summer with Miami came, but the bitches liked it.
Trey was on it.
And it's a girl record in the summer, so niggas didn't give Jim the other shit.
When Baby Girl came out, and I was there.
I was outside.
In the city.
There was nobody else.
There's no ballin'.
Now, that's three records you just named.
That's just three records you just named.
And those are heaters.
Right.
That's just three.
Ballin' was crazy.
I might want to come out
and do a little day and night
just because I put
Cudi on.
Cudi.
Kick Cudi on.
I heard you.
I heard you on there.
Shit.
Spicy shit.
It's crazy.
Why you said that?
I did literally.
I put him on.
I know but why you said it
like you said it?
Because that's literally
how it happened.
Y'all all right?
Yeah I love him.
The fuck?
I ain't say nothing wrong.
Talk about Cudi?
Yeah it was just a little spicy.
I mean, shit.
That was spicy talk?
That was spicy.
That might have been the way that the people wrote about-
Maybe my spice is his mouth.
I told the people how history went.
Like, shit, if it wasn't for me, we would definitely not have Kid Cudi.
Well, nobody would have heard the record.
Nobody would know who he was remember a side
I remember
a director
that was nobody
just trying to get on
directing
the people that he knew
on the street
was trying to do a video with me
you heard
the first video
they showed me that they did
I said let me see a video
they did
it was the Kid Cudi video
that record was on there
I said shit
send that beat
and I'm going to remix that record
and you can do the video to that
I put it on YouTube niggas at Hot 97 took it off YouTube and started playing it on Hot 97 shit, send that beat and I'm going to remix that record and you can do the video to that.
I put it on YouTube.
Niggas at Hot 97 took it off YouTube and started playing it on Hot 97.
Nobody knew who Kid Cudi was, but Jim Jones had this dope-ass record where he's damn near singing on it and it got added to Hot 97.
And then his manager got him a deal off of that,
took me off the record and Kid Cudi, Kanye, all that went crazy.
But I was never mad about it.
I'm just telling people
how it went.
I'm about to say,
in hindsight,
do you understand that move?
I'm going to pay them tomorrow
when I get their phone.
Huh?
In hindsight,
do you understand that move?
Like the manager doing that
or you feel like
they could have gone
about it differently?
Who was his manager name?
Cassidy?
Was it DJ Cassidy?
Was it Cassidy?
I don't know.
I don't think it was Cassidy.
It was the other one?
Which one?
It was a big DJ.
I have no idea.
Whatever.
You know these dudes.
But I'm not that type of person.
You heard?
There was plenty of situations where I've been in where I definitely was instrumental in getting people.
Was it Plain Pat?
These situations.
Pat.
Plain Pat.
I thought it was you.
Plain Pat.
I thought it was Pat.
That was that one kind of thing.
No, it was another person.
Oh, okay.
Robinson, maybe?
No, no, no.
Well, either way, I mean, I guess if you just stayed in what happened.
I'm staying in what happened.
I don't want nothing from him.
I never wanted a dollar from him.
I see him all the time.
Like, shit, the truth for me is sometimes better than gold.
Like, I don't care about that shit.
That wasn't part of my vision.
That wasn't part of my money.
I don't count on any.
I count on what I'll count on.
You heard?
Anytime I can help somebody and I do something, I do money. I don't count on any, I count on what I'll count on. You heard? Anytime I can help somebody
and I do something,
I do it because I could do it.
I don't do it because
I want something
in the back of it.
You dig?
I'm not one of them people.
Speaking of summer in Miami,
I'm going to say this
and hope that Sir,
Sir Ish can move
with a question for me,
you know.
And you don't have
to say anything.
I really like how you don't,
how you didn't talk about anything
that they were trying to get you to talk about.
That was dope.
What are you talking about?
Anything about Miami.
Anything about it.
Like when you did your interviews
and the interviewing niggas tried to get you
to talk about anything that happened in Miami,
you handled all that shit like a G.
And I came in here to say,
we need more of that. Young nigg here to say, we need more of that.
Young niggas would say, keeping it P.
I don't know what that is.
The key kept it P.
But you know, I'm not that type of person.
I never glorify shit that's happening.
But that's great.
But we don't see it enough, though.
How old are you?
Because these niggas, me?
45.
Yeah, nigga.
But there was a time when I would've used it as allegedly something like that.
I would've used it to my...
But that's not...
I grew out of that.
That shit didn't help me.
It's counterproductive.
It's counterproductive.
To entertain shit like that,
especially when it's live.
That's what make both of you niggas dope, right?
But sometimes that's twofold, though.
Y'all had to learn that.
Sometimes that's twofold, though.
Because sometimes niggas need to be put in their place.
Because if you leave room for niggas to deny some shit,
sometimes some shit got to be on camera sometimes.
You understand?
48 Laws of Power.
You know what that took me back to?
Sometimes it be on camera.
It's just that nobody ever seen it. What the fuck? You understand? 48 Laws of Power. You know what that took me back to? Sometimes it be on camera. It's just that nobody
ever seen it.
What the fuck?
Yeah.
Sometimes.
You did?
Certain people,
I'm just saying,
it's just certain people
that, you know,
they deserving
of certain things.
Right?
And it's like,
it needs to be
very well known.
It needs to be documented
because that's
what they deserve.
That's not what we on.
I don't like what I'm saying.
But ain't it documented
even if footage never gets released?
Come back to this room.
Come back over here.
Come back over here.
All right.
Where we at?
We back lobby?
How long,
how long,
because y'all both got shit going on,
right?
Yeah.
Like you're a successful podcaster.
You got a deal.
Round of applause, please.
What can you tell us, bro?
What can you tell us about bro? What can you tell us
about that look?
Hey,
listen,
man,
look,
I learned from the best.
You came,
I called you,
I got some advice from you.
Don't fucking lie.
Did I get some advice
from you?
For sure.
Alright,
I got advice from you,
right?
And,
you know,
and we doing what we do.
We doing what we do. We're doing what we do.
You're telling me that's crazy.
You're trying to deal with me.
We're doing what we do.
This thing is nuts, man.
We're getting to it, though.
That's the best way.
What's the name of the podcast?
Kitchen Talk.
They know what it is.
Joe Button been there?
I stole Meno's chef.
I need her number again.
I need her number again.
I'll let you have her. She make a number again. I'll let you have her.
She make a good wing.
I'll let you have her.
The salmon bite.
What was it?
Was it salmon bite she had?
Salmon cakes.
Meno, she had a good time.
She had everything.
She be on time.
Gourmet shit.
Yeah, she be on time.
I sent her to you.
No, no, she do great.
She do great.
Tell me about balancing
being a successful podcaster
and a rapper.
I wouldn't call myself
a successful podcaster. I feel like I wouldn't call myself a successful podcaster.
I feel like I provide the vibe.
I feel like that is just
another component.
Do you get paid for that?
Yeah, of course.
Then you're very successful.
Of course.
Because there's thousands
of podcasts out there
that don't get paid
for nothing.
So you're very successful
at what you're doing.
Listen.
Listen.
Listen.
I feel like when it comes to that, I feel like I provide the vibe.
I feel like we run the show in a certain kind of way.
I don't feel like I'm media.
I feel like that is just another component that I do that's for my brand overall.
I feel like right now where we're at in the game,
that you can have many different components.
You can have a show.
You can be about your music.
You can do so many different things.
I think this is the greatest time to do all that.
And that's what I wanted to do
because when I started the podcast,
I didn't have no music.
And I told my guy, I said,
listen, we're in a position to do something
that nobody else is doing.
We could have this podcast going over here on the left, but we could still be competing on the right with the music.
If we do that, we're doing something that nobody's been doing.
That's a fact.
That's true.
You understand?
So, you know, I say like Joe and them step totally away from the rap.
They don't want to do it.
So he's fully, you know, engrossed into that.
Right?
But I said that we in
a position that do something totally different we will start this lobby boy
shit that's gonna put us right back in the game at the same time we still gonna
have our show running and we and we up and going and let me ask it that round
applause for this guy Fox so the Fox so Definitely Fox Soul Are y'all doing anything
With the workout
Of course
This is looking like something
Of course
We already got a show
Going on man
Shout out to Diddy
Yeah
And Revolt
We shot
We shot
The first episode
For our Fit Lit thing
You know
Reality
Reality
Fit Lit
Fit Lit
Fit Lit
Fit Lit
That's the
That's the
Yeah
That's the
Fitness It started with The fitness initiative But We turn it down It started with what It started with The fitness initiative Fit Lit. Fit Lit. Fit Lit. Fit Lit. That's the one. Well, that's the fitness.
It started with the fitness initiative.
We turn it down.
It started with what?
It started with the fitness initiative that started in the beginning of the year.
Fab had this list of things, and that grew on to us, just hitting the gym and creating
a brotherhood, and what people seen on the IG turned into Diddy, like, nah, we got to
run this play.
Y'all looking too good.
For real.
Y'all should be hilarious.
I figure these are four individuals
that are all very successful at music,
are all very good fathers to their kids.
Like, it's a big dynamic.
Like, you don't never get to see
a show from a man's point of view,
per se.
Right.
Especially for alpha males
as strong in the game
as we are
and things like that
who are very responsible
at the same time.
So it's a lot that comes with it
and we like to have a good time.
Right.
You niggas checks
coming from Mayweather.
Right.
That's all I heard.
And that's a dope thing
in itself though
because all us together,
you know,
which different individuals
but so much in common,
you know,
black males in the rap game, fatherhood, all that. We balancing it out. You know, we going to the common. You know, black males in the rap game, fatherhood, all that.
We balancing it out.
You know, we going to the gym.
You know, we working out, cracking jokes on each other about clothes
and shit like that.
It's just a balance, and it's dope because it's dope content
because all of us got our lives and shit like that.
First episode we shot, I was talking to my son,
trying to get him to come to the gym.
He told me he needed an hour and a half to get ready so it's just that dynamic is is just dope and it's
funny because it's like dude you need an hour and a half to get ready to get to the gym he's like
yeah i gotta do this and i gotta do that like this is what you do every day like this i don't
understand your process that's a great thing that you brought up. Give me the thing that you gentlemen, as black fathers, and we all are dads here, right?
Yeah.
Give me the thing that y'all are the most in awe of as famous fathers fathering your kids.
Give me that.
What you mean?
Give me what?
As you're raising your kid, right?
What do you look at your kid and you are most in awe of?
as you're raising your kid, right?
What do you look at your kid and you are most in awe of?
Like you are most,
you're fascinated by this,
looking at, like for me, right?
I look at where I was when I was 21
and I look at where my kid is at 21.
And I just think about,
I do side by side sometimes
and I stand back like flabbergasted.
Like, oh shit,
this little nigga's in college
and I had to buy him a car.
He still won't go drive to go get, like, just shit like that.
For y'all, what do y'all look at y'all kid and just,
you know some of y'all is in them,
but they doing something different with what y'all gave them?
I love my son.
I love the person he is.
I love that he is absolutely not like me.
That part.
He's a good human, right a he got a good heart and and
i love that about him i love the fact that he's a he's so unselfish right i love that he he he
really understands and he's a he's a rider and that i admire that you know what I mean because um I didn't even get the chance to make it to be his age free like but he's 19 by the time I was 19 I was what in Southport or at
Clinton somewhere um so with that being said I'm amazed at at his growth you know I'm looking at
him and I'm saying he's got hair and I'm wow, like I grew up in prison and watching him develop.
And I didn't have that. I didn't have that relationship with my father because he had passed.
And it was just like it's amazing to me, you know, to see him and to see the type of individual he is and see the type of person that, you know,
and him taking a life on having his own characteristics and being his
own man that is amazing to me
I don't really need it from you cause I seen it with you on TV
yeah that's funny
I ain't gonna
lie but
the one thing
that
so like Mane said my son
is the same thing total opposite
of me very mild-mannered-back, don't talk too much.
You know him.
You probably know him as Poodie.
But, you know, so for him, he's 19.
I know he's about to go outside.
I know the world is different.
And he didn't grow up the same way I grew up.
So, you know, I know he's going to face up to some adversity.
And I always want to know if he's going to be able to stay on his ground
in whatever situation
in the most
respectful way he can
because I know
he doesn't bother
anybody but
I seen the other day
I got to see him
stand up for himself
when we was in
a place
I don't need to
talk about where
he was at but
I was watching him
stand up for himself
and the most
impressive thing was
that his first response wasn't,
nigga, you know who my father is?
His first response was him talking to him.
You heard?
That's hard.
You dig?
By the time they figured out who his father was, it was a real.
Zero.
All right.
You dig?
And not to say, you know,
and that's the worst thing for me to ever know
that he gotta go up
against anything like that
I don't want him
to have to get
but to know
that he gonna
stay on his ground
was
I felt
you dig
I know he about
to go outside
so it feels good
that I know
he'll be able
to stand up for himself
no matter where he's at
without me being there
yo let me ask a question
it's a little
you
cause you fucked me up
you like yo
my son different than me
right cause he gotta go hard right if you ain't faced the adversity you faced you fuck me up you like yo my son different than me right because he got a good
heart right if you ain't faced adversity you face you don't think you have a good heart i think you
have a good heart that's why like now like we all come from the bottom right the bottom bottom right
so the shit that you go through when you're running around shapes you shapes you right your
environment make you who you are right you. You know what I'm saying?
Just to adjust and survive.
Right.
So if you go to prison,
to survive in prison
you gotta become an animal.
Right.
You get what I'm saying?
Indeed.
But if you ain't never
go to prison
you might not have
been an animal.
He's the truest form of me.
Gotcha.
I think that he would be
like who I was
if life and circumstances
didn't harden me in a certain kind of way and circumstances didn't harden me
in a certain kind of way
like didn't scar me
in a certain type of way
like he is
he's probably
the most purest form of me
right there
because he's unscathed by life
he hasn't really
had to deal with
what I had to deal
you know what I mean
so it's the same thing
the best thing is to watch
a son around their kid,
a father that,
I mean,
a father around their kid,
a father that really loves their kid,
take care of their kid.
You can see it
in the presence of them.
Like,
when Mane holds around Zayn
and shit like that,
I'm observant of everything
and shit like that.
it's like the same for me.
It's like looking at a mirror
and shit like that.
Like,
you dig it?
And we need to put that out there.
We have our sons around.
Like,
we come to the studio
Come to the gym with us
You know like
We have them around
And I think it's dope
To have them
It's a lot of fathers
Like it's a stigma
That goes around
That's why I made a post
On the other day
About the fathers
They post and shit like that
Because we don't get the credit
That we deserve
There's a lot of
Fucked up mothers too
Sure
But we don't
Bear down on all that
Shit like that
We still highlight the fact That there's a Mother's Day
and we give everybody a just due.
But there's so many great fathers out there
that do not get highlighted and do not get the credit
and say, oh, that's the job you're supposed to do anyway.
Well, shit, it's the same job the mother's supposed to do.
But at some point, we're just as good as the mothers
to these kids.
My son definitely hit me the other day talking about,
yo, dog, what you want to do for Father's Day?
And I'm like,
that's not my job.
Ain't you supposed to be
here?
You said it out.
What the fuck is he doing?
I got a question.
What?
So what would y'all advice be
to up and coming artists?
You feel me?
Like a motherfucker like me
or somebody else coming up
because you find yourself-
You consider yourself
up and coming?
If I ain't made it the way you niggas you have a different lane though that's true too and you
you're a giant in your lane that's true too everybody's journey is different you're a giant
in in that world okay right there i appreciate that you feel me like you know looking up when
you when you feel like you ain't made it the way niggas made it at all it's like you just chasing
it you think about it wrong yeah you're looking at it wrong I'm a pessimist Right Don't overthink it
Because everybody
Everybody's journey
Gonna be different
Everybody's not gonna be
Drake or this one or that one
Right right right
And we shouldn't aspire to be
We can only be the best us
Right
So
Like
When I think of you
I think of
One of the
One of the premier artists
In that culture
Right
You understand
Which is a That's a big culture A gigantic culture That you all created Especially now Right right one of the premier artists in that culture. Right. You understand?
Which is a gigantic culture. That's all created.
Especially now.
Right, right.
It's huge.
And not even premier artist godfather.
Like, you were one of the people that started that shit.
You were giant in that.
Like, 100%.
When that shit was in the basements and shit like that.
We'd be sitting in the house watching y'all like,
oh, look at these things.
This is crazy.
You know what I mean?
Right.
So other artists. So other artists, like, trying to, like, oh, look at these things, this is crazy. You know what I mean? Right, so other artists,
so other artists
like trying to like balance,
like because we talk
about fatherhood
and this fatherhood thing
is like,
it's a sacrifice.
It's a sacrifice
for my child's future
with time.
100%.
You know what I mean?
So like,
and every artist knows
that that's the sacrifice
you give.
Like, I'm thinking about you
at 18, 19, 20, 21,
even though we're right here right now and you're nine.
It's all a sacrifice.
What's your advice to the balance?
You got to get there.
You got to be there.
You got to get there and you got to be there.
I don't care what goal.
I done took Jets back to my son's football game.
I'm not missing that unless God has no way for me to get there, bro.
You just said it, nigga.
It's balance, man.
It's balance, nigga.
And the balance is to make sure he sees you, make sure that she sees you, make sure you're
there as much as possible, and make sure that they know that you take care of them.
Of course, there's going to be instances where they know daddy's at work.
There's a lot of times for that.
But for the most part, don't miss as much as you did.
Like, that's one of the things I always make sure.
Even to this day, like, I just had to go crazy for this whole problem.
Like, I'm not even know.
Since he been a baby,
I'm going for you.
You dig? No matter what goes on.
I'm going for you no matter what.
That's what I can tell you. That's how I go
about mine. I'm not missing nothing.
I'm there. Fuck all this because
nobody was there for me. The one thing I
wanted to turn around and show my father who's not there
is that I'm doing everything that you couldn't do
for me because I know times
are different back then.
Tell me about the crypto crash.
Fuck that crypto crash.
You better have some cash.
You dig?
I'm watching people
get ready to jump out the window
like this is an 87
Wall Street plumber.
Like,
you niggas are stupid.
If you put all your money
inside of crypto
and now you're losing your mind,
like,
everything comes with balance, my brother. Why would you put everything inside that crypto like you're supposed to i ain't gonna talk about that i have my own i have a cryptocurrency called capital coin
and we all affected by certain things but we gotta be smart like i tell people i'm not a financial
advisor no i'm not no am i not stupid i'm not putting all my eggs in one basket. My mom told me that a long time ago.
So why would y'all do that?
There it is.
There it is.
You still doing it?
Yes, indeed.
No, but listen.
There's an upside to this.
Like,
everything that crashes
goes back up.
So right now,
the crashes,
if you do have a little bit
of money to play with,
to play with,
not start buying it
while that shit is low. Then that shit go back up. You're going to get filthy rich quick and then you need to take that shit out buying it while that shit is low
then that shit go back up
you gonna get filthy rich quick
and then you just
take that shit out
stash that shit up
and play with it a little bit
well that's where the bullshit
come in because
when you got companies
like a Binance and all that
who now said
oh everything is low
guess what
we holding transactions
they ain't the only
motherfuckers in the game
that's the big boy
they holding transactions
because they never
would thought
they don't have the cash or the capital to cash everybody out.
So they're like, no, we're not going to let you buy in even if it's low.
Everybody's in a panic.
Everybody's in a panic.
Motherfuckers that got it, got it.
Because they happy that this happened.
When stocks plummet, motherfuckers be sitting in the back like, yes.
This is what I'm telling you.
They be like, yes. I'm going to come up.ers be sitting in the back like, yes. This is what I'm telling you. They be like,
yes.
I'm going to come up.
I'm going to go scoop
all that shit up.
Bitcoin is at 18,000
on the day, yes.
There's going to be
some millionaires
made off of this promo.
They're going to get
60, 70 again.
Right.
This is what I just said.
Now is the time.
Go in and buy,
and buy,
and buy now.
I'm definitely going to
snatch up a couple ETHs
and a couple bits
just because.
You heard?
That's just life.
Because if you can sustain it
if you got money
to sustain it
you're gonna
then it's okay
if you got money
to play with
I always had
some cryptocurrency
I always
you know
had some
you know
money
always
you know
I had a couple coins
always
every game
yo
it's cyclical
every game
yeah
it's up and it's down
whether it's real estate
whether it's
yeah yo
every game
go up and go down that's a fact I don't care what it is every game yo it's up and it's down real estate whether it's up and it's down every game go up and go down that's a fact i don't care what every game yo you just got what it is
gotta weather the storm better you heard you get a hit this shit next year that shit that hit might
not be the same you heard like that part you gotta persevere out here man i treat everything
like basketball life really like a game of runs, it seem like. Like, you just have
a week and a half
where you just feel like shit
and then the next week,
everything hitting right.
Yep.
Everything's straight.
Shorty for all you.
Everything Gucci,
like all of the right box.
But you gotta learn
how to deal with both.
Both sides.
When it's down
and when it's...
And that's the tough part,
dealing with both.
You know what I mean?
But you gotta deal with...
You gotta will yourself
into the position that you wanna be in, though, bro. know what I mean But you gotta deal But you gotta will yourself Into the position
That you wanna be in though bro
You gotta will it
You gotta
You gotta manifest that shit
I'm big on that
Like
I come
I'm a nigga that never
Rapped in his life
Yeah
Alright
I was a nigga that never
I started rapping in prison
In Southport
23 hours locked in
Every single day
Spending years in a box
I started rapping
Under those conditions
I was never no rapper My nigga I spending years in a box. I started rapping under those conditions.
I was never no rapper, my nigga.
I had never had no aspirations about being a rapper.
I never had a dream, never thought, never nothing.
So what I'm saying is that you can will your way into some shit if you believe strong enough, if you work hard enough, and your energy is just like, I'm going to get it.
Nigga, it's either we're going to win or we're going to win.
It ain't no other in between.
It ain't no L because the L is really a lesson upon the journey anyway, nigga.
A lesson turned into a blessing.
So it's only winning.
At the end of the day.
But that crypto shit, you got me thinking about that shit.
Because I know how many people
are losing their shit
over it
because some of these people
were talking like
they were God
you understand
like some of these people
were just way too far
gone with it
and had
like they don't got
no reserve
of what reality is
but even with the
crypto crashes
and the stock crashes
we don't take them
like them.
Of course not, because we know how to survive.
We can eat peanut butter and jelly, man.
We can eat tuna and fish.
But that's not the end of our deal.
We're not putting all our eggs in that one basket.
We know how to do different things.
We know how to survive, bro.
We come from survival is in our blood.
It's in our nature.
Like, we come from, you know what we come from? You know the pain and the like we we come from you know we know what i what we come from you know the
pain and and the turmoil that's actually so easy to go without for me because it's actually harder
with all this shit that it come with when you gotta say this nigga over here with all these
diamonds on yo the three of your niggas do got a lot of diamonds This nigga sitting over here talking about It is I'm being 100 But for real I'm being 100

The condo's a neighborhood
Meet me by the stairs, I'm on the 12th floor
My door's right across the hall
And if he call, tell him you on the roof
By the pool, you cool
It's only one flight up, if time's up
Sex in the city, now screens over fire trucks
Sirens, I pull the blinds in, she pull me by a thousand
Breaking her orphan, a loft orphan, how we creep
Same place, same time tomorrow
Follow my lead, angel, pageant in the sky, model
Ain't nobody supposed to know
How we play, spin the bottle and fuck on the first go
Never miss the lotto, jackpotter, G-spot, pussy-floodin' towel
cause when you hit that sweet spotter they travels and starts to rise, you can watch it
climax and rewind their eyes, so I creep
quick one verse joint that's Creep by Huskingpin,, what you got for us? Dude's name is Kareem Taylor and the song is Until. I know you're afraid of it And you've run away from it
But now you trust me, you'll find safety You know what love is And you know the consequence
And now your heart's really safe in me Until my heart stops
Until my heart stops beating Until my heart stops beating
As long as I'm still breathing You always have my heart Till my heart stops beating Until my heart stops beating
As long as I'm still breathing You always have my heart
Till my heart stops beating Until my heart stops beating
I know you don't love easy I know you don't trust easy
And I know all of the reasons why Yeah, you told me everything
So I give my everything Cause any less we be wasting time Cause then it lasts with you within time As long as I'm still breathing
You'll always have my heart
Till my heart starts beating
Until my heart starts beating
As long as I'm still breathing
You'll always have my heart
Till my heart starts beating Till my heart stops beating
Yes, you
Until my heart stops beating
Yes, you will
Until my heart stops
Till my heart stops beating
Until my heart stops Till my heart stops
Until my heart starts beating
Until my heart stops beating
Until my heart stops beating

Remember, life is a series of moments and moments pass I don't love her
So let's make this one last as if it's all we have
And last but certainly not least
The baddies are insecure, the stagnant women wanna travel
And the closed-minded women want you to teach them things.
Grab a Tylenol, you might need it.
Wait a minute!
If it isn't love, why do I feel this way?
Why does she stay on my mind?
If it isn't love, why does it feel so bad?
Make me feel so sad
