They're deep.
They might be the deepest

Yes, he is.
Well, if there's one person I want to coach against that,
it's his former coach.

Nobody cares.
Success doesn't care, man.

And when you grab that motherfucker, you think you're going to hold on to it without fighting like a motherfucker?
Success in a bag, it's like that motherfucker put a fox in a bag.
That bitch be fighting, you got to hold on to that bitch for dear life. Because the minute
you think you got it, and it's going to slip out of your hands, bro, and you got to chase.
Some people will spend the rest of their career hunting for success again and won't be able
to catch it. Success is a motherfucker, bro. It's very finicky. And that's why there are
a few people that achieve the type of success that we want, but because we can relate to
them or because we see them as equal to us, we think it's realistic.

Can't really say rest in peace
to the accuser of Emmett Till, though.
She passed away recently.
Rest in chaos.
Yeah, rest in chaos.
Rest in piss.
Rest in piss?
Yeah, rest in piss. Dance on her grave. Yeah. Rest in chaos. Rest in piss. Rest in piss? Yeah, rest in piss.
Dance on her grave.
Yeah, all that.
Whatever.
So you guys are...
I'm not for that, though.
I'm not for that.
But rest in chaos.
I ain't going to say a little bit.
Because somebody that didn't do nothing wrong
is mourning the lady.
But I've said that over 100 times
on over 100 podcasts.
So I'm turning up.
I get it. The family... I mean, a couple'm turning up. I get it.
The family, I mean, a couple of years ago,
the family tried to get her charged.
She should have gotten charged.
And they kept trying.
They kept trying.
First, then it was they couldn't find her.
No, there was an arrest warrant.
There was an arrest warrant for her made out
like all those years back, like decades ago.
And it was found like stuck to the bottom of a box
in the basement of a courthouse.
But then once they found
it, they were like, they couldn't serve it. They didn't know where she was.
Then they found her, and then they
were saying because of her condition,
we're just not going to do it.
I read that. Yeah, they was executing her.
Whatever. I remember. Whatever.
Just some bullshit. Didn't she apologize, though?
She did. She did. She did.
She apologized. She apologized. Yeah, I saw bullshit. Didn't she apologize, though? She did. I'm flying. She did. She apologized.
She apologized.
Okay.
All right, cool.
Rest in piss, still.
Oh.
You niggas.
Okay.
They better say you niggas.
I'll say you niggas.
Ice Vaughn.
No, no, no.
You niggas.
You all right?
No, I'm just, I ain't rolling with that.
I mean.
All right.
Her family should definitely.
You lived a full fucking life And you apologize
Towards the end of your shit
Mm-hmm
And probably weighed on her
Bullshit
I call bullshit
Bullshit
I call supreme bullshit
Fuck that
She had decades
It should be rest in piss
Both of you agree with rest in piss
I'm saying rest in piss
Y'all ain't gotta agree with me
I'll stand on that by myself
Rest in piss
Her family should keep
Her grave site a secret
Because I'm sure there's going to be
quite a few people that feel like they want to
visit it, not for the best, right reasons.
That's you assuming that there'll be a gravesite?
That's an assumption, yep.
They could cremate her and... They could make
her a necklace. They could make her a necklace.
Like some of my favorite... They can toss her into
fertilizer. They can throw her ass
right out back.
Some of my favorite old hoes put their little grandma right here on their chudler and their little heart.
I used to be fucking the shit out of them.
Look at the grandma right in the eye.
That's target practice now.
But I used to care about it.
I used to ask, you ever want to put grandma on the end table?
It's the spirit of grandma.
Whatever.
Grandma might have got busy too.
Pox. My bad. Yeah, that's got busy, too. Yo. Pox.
My bad.
My bad.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
I said my bad.
Y'all are reckless.
I just want to say that.
And I got to say rest in peace to my man, my man Bailey.
My man Bailey has passed, man.
Tell us who Bailey is.
Rest in peace.
Bailey is my man, family friend that won all the money in Harlem, $300 million. No way. Yeah. Damn, rest in peace. Rest in peace. Rest in peace. Bailey is my man, family friend that won all the money in Harlem, $300 million.
No way.
Yeah.
Damn, rest in peace.
Rest in peace.
Rest in peace to Bailey.
And that's all I got.
I'm not playing outstanding.
It's a lot of death.
I feel like I forgot a death, too.
I went to a funeral Monday.

Sorry for your loss, man.

Just started.
Yeah. It's different, y'all. Just start. Yeah.
It's different.
But go ahead.

Does anybody here know I hate him?
I just hate him.
He said it a couple of times.
I just went to a funeral Monday, man.
Yeah, as you get older, you realize you're losing everybody.
But carry on with the show.
He has no just...
What? Can y'all
as podcasters one day tell him how that is?
What's the
difference in, yo, yeah, my man Bailey,
300 million, rest in peace, Bailey?
His tonality
was different first. You know, he was, you know,
you could feel it. And, and, and...
It's too early in the show for your pom-poms to come out. We know, you could feel it. Listen, it's too early in the show
for your pom-poms to come out.
We closed,
rest in peace.
His tonality was different.
You asked.
That's not pom-pom
when he answered your question.
You can't do that.
Why you gotta insult niggas?
See what I'm saying?
Like, stop.
We good.
We great.
We're everybody but Simba.
Why would I insult him?
That's my man.
Of course that's your man.
Yeah.
Simba not my man?
I don't know. You tell me. Of course. What's your, Es Somebody not my man I don't know

Big time
Moving right along
Moving right along
Where would y'all like to begin
Wanna start with music
Let's get music out the way
Jack Harlow
Jack Harlow
Jack Harlow
Jack Harlow
Has put out a sneaky album was it really
is it really an album when it's 24 minutes long is that an album or is that an ep yeah that's an
album okay today now it's an hour they changed the ruling and definitions and all i had this
fight when daytona dropped and i lost okay it's an album okay so the word on the street is it's
like it's it's redeemed him it's that's it's it's that i always skim through
it and i wouldn't go that far on the street let's start from niggas who heard it that's what i want
to say i skimmed through i wasn't blown away or excited particularly but i might not be the demo
you're exactly the demo i was gonna say who's the demo if it's not you? Parks is not the demo.
Parks is definitely not the demo.
I'm joking, but Parks is not the demo.
No way.
Parks ain't the demo.
Parks almost 48.
Who's the demo then?
28-year-olds?
Younger.
Younger than that.
Younger women, I feel like.
Yeah.
Younger women.
Yeah.
I think the demo for Jack Harlow is 15 to 33.
I think the 33 is a little high.
Might be.
Yeah, but that would be the two different demos in the demo.
Yeah.
But yeah, I didn't, I played on the first song and when I saw how short, I don't like short records.
I'm one of those.
Like, I get it.
You're playing the algorithm game and all of that.
But when I heard the first record, I was just like, okay, it's cool.
Next thing I know, it's over.
I don't really.
So it's short songs and a short list.
It's 10 songs.
It's 10 songs, but like track one was like a minute and 30 seconds
or something like that.
Is that even a song?
Today, yes.
Because everybody got short attention spans.
Don't nobody want to hear a long record no more like your record is three minutes long they like this is ridiculous we don't want to hear the shit what did you think of the project um i didn't hear
the whole project i'm saying i got through maybe two three records and then i cut that off and put
something else on you got it it just it didn't do it for me i typed jack harlow's name in my
itunes store and still didn't see no new project.
What time did you go in?
That shit was soon as-
Four hours ago?
It was up there.
The picture and everything.
As soon as you opened the iTunes store,
it was right there.
That's what they were promoting.
But my algorithm probably don't put
all that hip-hop shit in my shit.
Watch this.
I'll open it right now and tell you what's right there.
That shit was on the main screen at midnight.
Want me to read you mine?
Yeah, sure.
Oh, no.
All genres.
Now it's here.
Yeah.
This was not here.
It's called Jackman.
This just got here.
Because I saw it.
Like I said, I was on caffeine at midnight.
And I was like, all right, yo, let's listen to the new music that dropped.
And bam.
All right, let me give this a quick breeze.
It ain't but 20 minutes.
Listen to the new music that dropped in.
All right, let me give this a quick breeze.
It ain't but 20 minutes.
All right.
You lost me again.
Yeah.

Okay.
Okay.
Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Hey girl Alright, you got it, you got it No airports and no flights, this how I wanna live my life, is that alright?
Ten girlfriends and no-
Shut up, nigga
Ride for my dogs, live
Thunder
Ooh, why
This ever had to be
Production don't sound bad
Yeah, beats don't sound bad He can rap well don't sound bad. Production don't sound bad.
He can rap well.
He don't talk about shit that I don't care about.
That is fresh.
And it goes.
Walking past a homeless in a Rolex.
Just got off the stage on a Today show and I basically felt soulless.
Years go by and I keep saying I'm going to use my phone less.
My homeboy just beat cancer. I call my. Basically fell soulless years go by and I keep saying I'm gonna use my phone less but
My homeboy just be cancer I call my
It must be my skin. I can't think of any other reason not win. I can't think of an explanation
It can't be the years of work I put in it can't be the way that I've stuck with the same friends
It can't be the swag I got when I walk in it can't be What was that?
That wasn't bad right there.
This is track 9, Blame On Me.
There's 10 tracks on here.
He'll get a purchase out of me.
Production sounds amazing to me.
There's a little bit of shit on there.
There's some on there.
Like I said, I just cut it off.
I'm going to buy this project because I heard enough for me to want to buy it.
But this is weird.
This is weird.
Let me read the... I need more information.
Let me read the thingamajiggy.
Jack Harlow's naysayers had their chance but oh brother but rest assured that the louisville that the louisville bread rapper now controls the conversation blessed with
immaculate hip-hop production jack man reinforces his uh status as the confident appealing artist
who crushed it on come home with the kids miss you uh miss you more than cognizant of the loaded
white rapper label they don't love it flip flips to the fuck is he doing here that's why this is crushed it on Come Home With The Kids Miss You More Than Cognizant of the Loaded White Rapper label
They Don't Love It
flips to
what the fuck
is he doing here
that's why this is weird
to me
cause he just sold
way too many records
and they put way
too much money
in him
just now
and he did alright
this feels like
it's trying to be
his rapper album
yeah
that's what I was
gonna say
maybe
he's kinda good though
he does not bad
I don't like
like I said I don't like like I said
I don't like what he talks about
on a lot of them
but some of the ones towards the end
sounded dope
yeah
I think it was like 7 or 8
whatever
that shit was fire
I can have some shit on this
shout out to Jack
I'm definitely gonna check it out
still seems weird
this is weird
I mean
even if it performed well they could have heard the conversation what
i said about the big album uh just this last album even if you're doing this style album and
you dj dramas artists don't it just seem like it should be more noise um if drama said one word on
here there would be more noise again i feel like he was just trying to prove a rapper point with this more so than make a huge commercial success.
And I'm sure it will be a commercial success.
He's reached that point where people are going to go buy and listen to his shit regardless.
No, he didn't.
I ain't jacking that shit.
That is not true.
I don't agree with that, but that what I just heard, that interests me.
You don't think that's going to turn very hot next week? You don't think that's going to chart very high next week?
You don't think that's going to land in the top five?
Of albums or albums in the genre?
Either.
No.
Okay, we'll see.
Well, no.
Maybe rapper albums.
Yeah, rap albums I would expect.
But ain't no rapper albums dropped.
I don't know what the last albums are still doing.
Some of them, shit's just charting pretty high.
I don't know, but I know you have to. Some of them, she's just charting pretty high. I don't know,
but I know you have to spend money
to get a return,
and this is silent.
This is quiet,
so I would be interested to see.
This sound like less than 30,000 copies.
No.
And that's me shooting high.
No.
No.
No way.
All right, let's see.
Never.
We shall see.
Bet it.
Let's bet.
Let's put a bet on it.
Come on,
you don't pay your bets.
Stop it.
Stop it.
Just don't. Why do you keep saying that? Because you don't pay your bets because you don't pay your bets you don't pay but why do you keep saying that who y'all and
when we talk to you behind the scenes y'all everybody is like no because you have outstanding
debts for bets that you've made that you haven't made that says implore what are the bets come on
how many you want me to name whatever you want you bet me on on the Dallas Giants game. How much I owe you? All in all?
Yes, how much do I owe you?
About $1,500.
That's cool.
$1,500.
Do you have cash up on your hand?
Absolutely.
Oh, man.
You said that last time.
You didn't say that last time.
Because normally when you make bets,
but normally when you make bets, But normally when you make bets,
you see people
outside so you can have that exchange.
I keep seeing this nigga at work
and he keep talking about a bet. Come outside.
Come outside with me.
Come outside with me.
Come outside with me.
You can't do that.
You can't put a stipulation on me.
No, we have work.
We have work. You think I'm here to work? You can't put a stipulation on it. We don't say that. We don't say that.
You think I'm here to worry about paying a bet at work?
You are wrong.
Are you crazy?
I'm glad everybody here is listening to this bullshit justification.
Yo, typically you see a nigga outside.
Isn't that from like three months ago?
From January 24th. Wait, from what? Calling our girls. From January 24th.
Wait, from what?
Calling our girls.
From what?
I remember that shit.
From all of that.
Calling our girls.
And then he said, it wasn't even about that.
Advance the conversation, please.
Calling exes.
Calling exes, I think is what it was.
It was calling our girls.
I never copped to that.
Yes, you did.
That was for on-air purposes.
Nigga, I'm paying him for calling his ex.
What's up?
You took a break.
No, that wasn't for calling an ex.
What are you talking about? That wasn't for calling an ex I'm not paying y'all niggas to work. What? Yep.
Don't get in the blood.
Yo, Joe's crazy.
So to answer your question, no, we won't bet it.
Yeah, I would love to bet it.
A friendly bet.
A friendly bet.
No, I'm good.
What does the bet come with, though?
Like, this nigga bets me different.
He got stipulation.
You got to come outside.
And see me spending money on your pay?
Yes, you have to come outside to get paid.
That's crazy.
That's some C-load shit, nigga.
I know.
I know.
Anyway.
He's standing on it.
I've seen this nigga twice.
I'm standing on it.
I'm standing on it.
You gotta go outside to get paid.
I'm standing on it.
Is that a real rule, bro?
No, nigga.
That's a Joe rule.
That's not no rule nowhere.
That's a real rule.
In his brain.
That's a real rule, though.
He made it up. Wait, wait, wait. You gotta read the fine print of this shit. If you're spending. It's a Joe rule. That's not no rule nowhere in his brain. That's a real rule though. He made it up.
Wait, wait, wait.
You got to read the fine print of this shit.
If you're spending, he's saying that if he's spending money and I'm throwing money around,
that's when you can get paid for your bet?
No, it's not.
I'm not saying you have to catch me in the act of spending money.
I'm saying anywhere that's not work, you'll get paid.
So the wild part, hey, look. He's trying to get paid. Hey, flip.. He keep coming to work trying to get paid.
Hey, flip.
The wild part is it makes sense to him.
It makes all the sense in the world to me.
That's the wild part.
He's not even joking.
So we should not make the bet at work anyway.
We should make the bet outside the work to get paid.
There you go.
If we make the bet at work, it's just work purposes.
We just betting for pardon.
Yep.
No.
Nigga.
Fuck no.
It's okay.
What you talking about?
Are there any more music? It's fine. This is okay. We can advance this. Fuck no. What you talking about? Are there any more music?
It's fine.
This is okay.
We can advance this.
What else do we have?
Niggas don't want to pay.
Miguel dropped some shit.
Now I ain't paying this nigga neither.
Miguel, you said?
Miguel dropped some shit.
Miguel, I have a bone to pick with Miguel.
Last week, Miguel announced that a single was dropping this week
and I'm a Miguel fan so thank you that's awesome I look forward to hearing the single next week
I also assume that in the last six years that you have not dropped music that you've been making
some music so I don't think you really have the runway to announce when you're dropping a song.
Because it's been six fucking years.
Just put some heat out.
You can't do that after you take off six years.
These artists today with this every album five year shit.
You niggas.
It pisses me off.
I like it.
Not the men personally.
I love Miguel.
But all of this, y'all bougie ass niggas, I got to pray that I live to your next song release.
You said you like that?
I like it from certain artists, yeah.
What?
The announcement?
The ones that take their time and craft it and give you heat every drop.
I like it.
I don't rush them no more.
Example?
Kendrick.
Okay.
Example, Travis Scott.
Example, J. Cole.
These dudes don't rush every year to drop a project out.
They let it push a T.
They put a project out and they let it breathe.
And it ages well.
And when they ready to come back,
it'd be three, four, five years later,
they come back with heat.
I'm not mad at that.
He's conflating my point.
No, no, no, they just asked me about.
I know, but don't ask that shit while I'm making my point.
Because he just named the creme de la creme.
Exactly.
My conversation is about everybody doing it.
Miguel should not be doing this.
Miguel is creme de la creme.
Shut the fuck up.
You don't think so?
In R&B, no.
He wasn't certainly at one point.
Yeah, he was.
He was fire.
He had a nice life.
You asked me today in 2023, going into the summer,
when he hasn't dropped a song or album in six years,
is Miguel R&B, Crim De La Crim the answer?
No.
We could be honest about things without it being a diss.
How would he be the Crim De La Crim in R&B right now?
His last project wasn't well-received.
I know, because I was part of the person leading it.
Where do y'all get this from?
The last two really weren't the most well received
Honestly, all right, so he lost it then. Okay carry on
Does here yeah, let's hear what Miguel did
Can I go louder there we go
Funky beat starts off a little... Cerebral.
I wasn't sure where he was going with it. Shout out to Scoop DeVille, producer. up in your mind these days I know the sweet distraction
might be what you
need to know
body on inferno
inferno your mind on
my mind
don't sound bad
don't sound bad
to let go
to let yourself unwind
you left
I left
we left you left All right, Miguel, go ahead and end with your best self.
That guitar from something.
He plays guitar, so he might have put that on himself.
It's not like he put it on himself.
It's not like the tones that he usually uses.
Yeah, I listened to it last night.
I didn't love it, but listening to it today, I was like, okay, this ain't bad.
It grows on you
Yeah
It's okay
It starts off a little cerebral
Yeah it starts off
Like you don't know
Where the fuck it's gonna go
Uh huh
But then it just
It is called
Give it to me
Yeah I wasn't mad at it
Yeah I don't think it's that bad
It's a cool little
I gotta hear it
On a better system
Than whatever Parks just did
It's the Atmo shit too Sam fam parks that little shit always makes it quieter yeah
i don't want it i don't have a parks does on the engineering board is a blessing to artists so that
shit don't sound right right here it ain't gonna sound right in your car or your house or no else
that song is mad a five mad a five mediocrity at its finest for him to take off for six years and come
back with that is not no until the guitar riffs came in i was about to go to sleep well i don't
think that that i don't think that that's i don't think that this is his big single
no it feels like a warm-up it feels like a warm-up to a bigger record coming later in the summer. In the local park.
I caught the sample in my head.
I got it.
That guitar part, Jay-Z had that shit.
I mean, they're power chords, sir.
What Jay-Z song is that?
Help me.
Yeah, I really wish y'all let the music be part of it.
Nigga, for real.
No, that guitar sound is from another.
The way he played it, man.
Explain it, nigga.
You a musician, help me figure it out.
Don't put me on the ledge myself. It's a very common tone is the problem.
I don't give a fuck.
I got it.
It sound like Jay-Z shit.
Okay.
All right.
Thank you.
I just can't.
Yo, I love Flip, yo.
I ain't gonna hold you, yo.
Shout out to Miguel.
Sound like he might be trying to get closer
Back to that Kaleidoscope Dream bag
Or hopefully
I hope so
Also in new music
Baby Rose album dropped
And it's great
Baby Rose is fire
She's amazing
That when I woke up and purchased it
At three in the morning
I put the
album on loop and went back to bed it's one of those i mean i didn't know she dropped i got you
though i got you though oh she don't play she don't play all that aggressive tone chord weird
She just got her own bop man. Shout out to Baby Rose
Hey
It go You're right Am I sinking it all out?
Am I sinking it all out? Oh my god.
This is craziness.
Yeah, it is.
This is absolutely ridiculous.
Oh, it is.
It is.
You're right.
That shit is fire to me.
It's a vibe.
I know.
It's all the non-music people.
Get y'all shit up. Nah, nah. This shit is trash. That shit is. Who me. I know. It's all the non-music people. Get y'all some of that.
Nah, nah.
This shit is trash.
That shit is.
Who the fuck is Baby Rose?
That's some Darls Barkley-esque.
Yeah.
Keep all that shit in there.
Yeah.
Fuck out of here.
That shit was not it.
They sitting here like, I think Miguel should have came out with that.
And Miguel would have jumped on that.
We might have had some fire.
I'm bigging up Baby Rose I know
an artist that has been
killing to me
an artist that is unique
in her bag
and we've been waiting
for a Baby Rose project
I don't shit on all the things
that Ice plays
that are trash
yeah you do
so if we want to play this
no you do
no I don't
no you do
I like that track
I like the way it came on
and everything.
I'm looking at, okay, this is what Miguel should have did to me.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't disagree. I was waiting for the right time
What's it come to me
I was hoping you could stay around
Think of how it could feel
Oh boy
Pacing back and forth in my mind
Wonder how you feel
Yo, if you listen out there, this whole album is a groove like this
Can we close the gap between us?
Can I be with you, me?
To me?
Uh-uh.
No, I forgot.
Ooh.
You know the more I love you, the more I love you.
Can we close the gap between us?
Can I be with you, me?
To me? But I do admit, well, I will admit that you have to be into music to be in there.
I'll say that.
I'll say that.
It's a little alternative.
It's abstract.
It's not cookie cutter shit that you're used to.
Yeah, it's not.
Her face and her look, like they don't, I never would have thought that her voice would sound like it does with the way she looks.
You know, she looks like a, she's beautiful.
She looks like a, you know, like an R&B songstress and her voice kind of, I don't know.
It makes me think of like Nina Simone almost.
Okay.
Yeah.
That's what she gives me.
And I love that.
I love that.
I'm a, I'm a fan.
Yeah.
No, me too.
Childhood baby Rose.
I feel like, is she Canadian?
Her record label is called Secretly Canadian,
which I feel like you should be signed there.
Because you are secretly Canadian.
She's not secretly.
I'm not secret about it at all.
Shout out to the T-Dot.
Sorry.
She said that.
Y'all just gonna let alright
that's what they call it
and that is the end
of our music section
yeah yeah
that's it for music
great
no more
there's no more music
yeah
no more music
I was happy for Baby Rose
it wasn't a lot of music
that came out with her
let me say that
that is always good though
when the one you know they don't get lost in the noise.
I saw someone, I think it was a dude,
and I apologize for forgetting his name, from DJ Booth,
talking about they might move back to Tuesdays for release dates.
Some people already started.
I was going to say, some people did that.
Yeah.
I think now they just, I be seeing Wednesday drops.
Like, people are just going. just going Oh yeah they'll drop whatever
On an independent level
But if the whole
I would like the whole industry
To shift back to Tuesday
Friday's kind of a shitty day
To drop music
It really is
Cause you can't digest it
You don't care
But the weekend
You're not going to play
Some new shit
You're going to play
Slaps with the homies
In the hoes
Back on
When it dropped
When albums dropped on tuesday
there was more thought into how do you get fans to listen to your album now you're just trying to
get fans to buy your album or stream your song you don't really know how much they're listening
to it right you think that'll change now i think that's what the time is period they made the
switch initially because more people got paid on Fridays.
So the thought process was
people can take their paycheck and go buy albums.
But now that everyone's paying for streaming
and this shit just comes out
whenever it comes out of your bank account,
it don't matter what day of the week it is.
I was told it was them lining up
with the European release schedule.
I was about to say, that's a dumbass reason.
That's what I was told.
So to maximize on shit
we're going to drop
Fridays when everybody
across the world drops.
Nation wide.
No, worldwide.
Worldwide.
That makes sense.
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.
It's probably a little bit of both.
Yeah, but I'm with Parks.
If album drop on Friday
you know how many albums
I have in my phone
that I've purchased
that I don't know
what's on them?
Same.
Same. And I don't really
see a foreseeable window where
I'm getting to that album.
Same. It's tough to get
back to music. Yeah. Now,
like if you don't have a slap or
some slaps on your album that's making
me go listen to it a month after it came
out, two months after it came out, if it's not a grower.
And again, I know that's not their focus,
but as a consumer, it's not a grower and again i know that's not their focus but yeah
they don't as a consumer it's just like we the afterthoughts though in that sense they don't
like they just want them numbers not for nothing for for reviewers people like us it's harder to
even digest the shit like if it drops on tuesday you got the whole quiet work week to kind of
take it in that's true when it drops fr, we don't got time to listen to it
and by the time the new week comes around,
By the time your weekend is rolled around,
you're not even going to discuss it.
Yeah.
Yeah, not at all.
So, you wrote up here about Red Table Talk being canceled.
Yeah, so...
All Facebook originals.
Yeah.
So, Facebook announced that it was dropping
all of its original programming
and one of their biggest shows was Red Table Talk. obviously they're looking for a new home but I mean I don't know
what that means in terms of like what's happening over at meta Facebook maybe you guys know what
this means but a lot of people looked at that as like an opportunity to you know rather than getting into the podcasting game
you know and not getting on streaming doing facebook i don't understand like that seems
like a massive move to remove all its original programming it probably just didn't work for them
the way that they learned it to work so they're trying something else i mean they seem to be
moving off of the metaverse shit too right i don't i don't see as much emphasis over there
right now.
I mean, they might have just set up
their little infrastructure
and gonna come back to it.
Yeah, I'm sure.
I don't know.
But it looks to me like
this is just in line with all of the other layoffs.
Everybody's finding a way to save some money now.
We invested in this.
It didn't do what we think it did.
So we're gonna just cut that.
Or the numbers fell.
Because for a minute, their numbers were high.
But I'm saying in general, the whole, overall,
the entire original programming thing,
they might have had a window.
In this amount of time, five years, however many years,
we want to see this.
We didn't do it.
It's just like some of these other companies
that invested a bunch of money in podcasters.
Podcasts.
Podcasts.
I corrected myself.
My English teacher listening, she would curse me the fuck out.
But yeah, it's like you invest know, you invest these monies,
these monies into these things, and it don't work.
Do we care that Red Table Talk is canceled?
I mean, I don't.
I don't think that this is the demographic.
I care.
Fuck Red Table Talk.
Disrespected Will, Demoralize My Man,
one of the greatest actors.
Fuck out of here.
What?
Get out of here.
You do know.
Canceled.
You do know who is on Red Table Talk, right?
His mother-in-law, his wife, and his daughter.
So, I'm not saying.
They're all falling for his shock shit.
It's not shock.
I really feel that way.
You feel like, fuck them.
Not the people, the show.
I feel like it embarrassed him when he was up there
crying looking crazy
that was the start
of his downfall
to me
when they was talking
about that shit
with the homies
he was smashing.
That was one of my
favorite episodes.
I mean Will had to agree
to go on the show.
That was one of their
favorite episodes too.
Trust.
That was a great episode.
That's where we got
the word entanglement.
It turned
when we watched Will crying for his father on Fresh Prince of, you know, that to what he looked like now and all the great movies he did.
And then after that episode, he looked crazy.
Come on, we know that.
The memes and stuff like that.
Look what that shit did.
Come on.
Y'all want to just be in niggas' business.
He looked crazy.
He did look crazy.
He looked real crazy.
That was the start.
That whole shit started. But there was a point
in time in which he would...
We're talking about Jada Pinkett Smith's venture
without Will Smith and the canceling of it.
Can y'all talk about that?
It's not really a Will Smith
topic. I'm agreeing.
Red Table Talk was
super popular. They're going to find a home.
That's what I'm saying.'re gonna find a home very very quickly
you know
you don't think so
how do y'all
yeah
how do y'all say
all the techie people
are firing people
and then y'all say
oh they're gonna find a home quickly
how do both things
bring true for y'all
I think a company
that is more focused on media
would be interested in having
something with the star power
that that show has
Hulu
yeah
name it
Hulu
Tubi.
Name a streaming service.
Y'all just talking
about your ass.
I know y'all don't want
to go down this road,
but I totally disagree with you.
I think that
the Jada Pinkett Smith name
was valuable at a point.
And I think they based
everything on that.
And I think that
the controversial shit
that they were doing
was the thing that was
bringing in the numbers.
And once that controversy left, they hit the ground.
That's what I think.
And I don't think that with the money that they might be looking for,
another media outlet is just going to be rushing to the door to give them that
because the return is not guaranteed.
What are they going to do with themselves?
I don't know how much it costs to run that show.
I imagine a red table is not so expensive.
I don't know what it costs.
To your numbers point,
yeah, I don't
know how successful they were with every
drop, and I don't know how often
they dropped. I only know about the big
click-baity episodes. It was weekly.
Oh, what? Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, we canceled them.
I didn't know that.
I'm canceling you if that's a weekly show.
But this is not an indictment against them.
If you're laying off all these employees and you're slowing down on Oculus and you're slowing down.
Like, if you've been slowing down on all these other things, this was next.
This was next.
I mean, all the big boys are laying off.
All of the big boys.
Everybody.
They just canceled Vice News tonight, man.
That was my shit.
They did what?
Canceled Vice News tonight.
They canceled Vice News.
And laid off a bunch of people as well.
That was a great news program.
Wow.
This is tough out here.
Bam, Clubhouse just announced that they are laying off half of their employees.
Oh, shit.
So it's only three people in there.
Oh, they went from six to three.
Oh, my God.
But I'm just saying, like, everywhere you look,
all you're reading is layoffs, cancellations, terminations.
Is this the rise of AI?
It's all economic shit, bro.
The first thing you do when you are a company in peril or jeopardy is you cut expenses
your highest expenses most for most companies is but we're seeing companies that we know
aren't in peril do the same thing yeah it's amazon your stuff it's face their definition of
peril and ours is different though yeah exactly okay. Okay. You tell the stockholders that we're not in peril.
Peril?
Not peril, but for some people, maintaining is not profitable.
I think an element that happened was there was a big rush,
especially for streaming services, to get a bunch of people creating content there
to get people to subscribe to these services.
Peacock, et cetera.
All the companies, all the networks,
all the companies in the world, media companies,
started an app to get subscribers there.
In order to do that,
you got to have something new and different.
And they brought people in to do that
and it either worked out and they're laying people off
or it didn't work out and they're laying people off.
Peacock is an example of success
and CNN Plus is an example of
epic failure. I'm not sure which
are successful. Me either.
It's also different stages.
When you first drop, it might be more
successful. You got people rushing over to watch
Friends or whatever and oh, Bel Air's here too.
Awesome. What happens in
two years? And the state of the world
is just a little different today than
it was three and four years
ago i don't think that layoffs have so much to do with well necessarily have to have so much to do
with the state of the company rather than the state of the world that's a fact that we're all
sitting around i want to serious but watching shit that's what i think i think that people
are bracing for the possibilities of what's to come.
And in doing that,
we're going to try to save money now.
When I'm talking
to companies out there,
they are putting clauses
and they're putting wording
in this contract
that protects them
from the artists
that have just been
getting over year
after year on them.
Like, that's over with now.
All you niggas
that was running,
when y'all was getting scammer money
and everybody, the line was long in Gucci
and all the techie shit, the stocks was going up,
everybody was balling, big booming,
buying eggs, toilet tissue, we was wilding outside.
At some point, that had to come to an end.
The mall is a little less crowded today.
The supermarket is a little less crowded today. The supermarket is a little less crowded today.
These things, these areas are not affected,
and the big boys don't take notice and move accordingly.
That's why they're the big boys.
Just my opinion.
Speaking of mall, real quick, speaking of mall,
Paramus, for my Jersey people out there,
Garden State Mall has implemented a new rule,
and I love it.
On weekends, if you are under 18, you must be with a parent or guardian to get your ass in there.
I like that.
I'm kind of here for that.
Yeah, I like that.
I love it.
I'm going to clap for that.
I love it.
I couldn't be happier.
Y'all kids is bad as fuck.
Y'all kids is bad as fuck.
They in there breaking windows,
throwing rocks at the Shake Shack window,
robbing shit, stealing,
beating people up on the weekends.
Them folk ain't playing with y'all there.
Hey, y'all the wrong place to do that shit.
Y'all better take that dad,
Paramus, after the fool like that.
No, no, no.
Old ghetto ass niggas.
Y'all the wrong place. Hell no.
Go take that shit to...
I ain't gonna say it.
Elizabeth Owletts.
Yeah.
I wasn't gonna diss him. They better go somewhere. Take that shit to Hudson ain't gonna say it Elizabeth Owlet Yeah I wasn't gonna diss him Better go somewhere
Take that shit to Hudson Mall
Yeah Hudson Mall
My bad
Just stomping ground
Strike one
And it wasn't my fault
You good?
You cool?
What were you saying Parks?
I was just gonna say
To your point of
The world is different
Yeah we were all sitting around
Doing nothing but watching our phones
Watching TV
Because we couldn't go outside Yeah I was watching D-Nice, to your point of the world is different. Yeah, we were all sitting around doing nothing but watching our phones, watching TV because we couldn't go outside.
Yeah, I was watching D-Nice and Tory Lanez.
You were.
Dead ass.
And that was valuable then.
Is it valuable today when you can go actually do some shit?
Yeah.
That's the reason we ain't had a Versus yet.
I love this, though.
I love this.
There was too many niggas that was whack getting money.
Facts.
Fucking up the fuck.
It was a cesspool.
It just,
you,
and you'd be compelled
to watch some of that bullshit
and then it's bullshit
and now you just waste
a bunch of time
watching some trash.
I'm saying something bad again?
Yeah,
you are.
But it's cool.
Keep it moving.
But what?
It's all right.
But tell me what though.
You said,
yo,
you was happy
at a whole bunch of niggas
out here getting money. You said it was too much whack niggas what though. You said, yo, you was happy at a whole bunch of niggas out here getting money.
You said it was too much whack niggas getting money.
Getting money, yeah.
What them niggas eat, man?
They did.
There you go.
Now the time is over.
Now the time is over.
Now they hiding from the law.
Hey, y'all going to jail.
There still ain't nobody talking about their taxes.
April came and went.
This was literally the brightest taxes ever.
Y'all are going to jail, all of you criminals.
Oh, shit.
Whatever.
That ain't right, though.
Clubhouse tried to sneak their layoff announcement out there.
That might give a fuck who y'all laid off, nigga.
We surprised y'all.
Let me stop.
What else?
What else is happening out here?
Well, we were talking about tech companies and shit.
Y'all been seeing this whole blue check drama that's been happening over on Twitter?
Yeah.
So they took away all the legacy check marks.
Yes.
So none of us have them anymore unless you pay.
And wasn't it like 28 people tried to buy blue check marks?
28 people tried to buy it check marks? What was it?
28 people tried to buy it?
Yeah.
Like they thought that it was going to be like thousands of,
like hundreds of thousands of millions of people were going to like,
oh my God, I need my blue check mark.
I definitely did not feel that way.
I bought mine.
But I didn't buy it for the check mark.
Why did you buy it?
Because I saw.
For customer service.
No, no, no.
You about to give us the Ian spiel?
No, no.
Ian went viral off that motherfucker.
I saw that.
But no
Honestly no
Like a dick
Anything that offers me less ads or no ads
You got my money
Okay
That's the easiest way to get me
Okay
Two ways
Offer me less ads slash no ads
And give me a yearly price
Where I can just pay it once
And not have to worry about it no more
How much that shit cost?
For the year?
For the year.
Like 80.
Twitter could suck my dick.
But I hate ads.
Like, I really have
a thing against ads.
And you use Twitter a lot.
I ain't paying for that shit.
I done fucked all the girls
off Twitter.
I wanted to fuck them.
Fuck, I need to be authentic for them.
Too late for that one
cause I'm new here
I don't know about her
the blue check is important
in monetization
but if I can't monetize
the blue check
I don't give a fuck
like I said
I didn't do it for the check
it's just you pay for it
I subscribed to Twitter Blue
prior to that
you got it playboy
and then they switched
the shit over
they was like yo
if you subscribed before
we don't care
now you to resubscribe
and get into this price.
All right, whatever.
Just give me the less ads.
I hate ads.
Anything I get,
any game,
any streaming service,
the first thing I look for
is no ads,
yearly price.
You got me.
All right, we got it, bro.
My brother.
No, but I'm just saying
I watch...
Oh, they was on your ads too, huh?
No.
Oh, okay.
I don't even know Twitter no more.
That's the funny shit. I'm not even on Twitter no more
I don't go in there
Cause I hate the app
I hate the
The
Official
Twitter app
I just can't use it
So then why bother
Getting the check mark
I bought
I bought this shit before
Oh
Got it
I paid for the year
It's already done
I can't go back and say
Yo get my money back now
I don't
It is what it is
got it
so you won't be re-upping
no absolutely not
so then why the hell
do you lead with it
anytime you want money
from me
just give me a year
because if it's something
I use Joe
I was using it
and I don't use it no more
that's all it is
okay
it's just like any other
you said Netflix before
like you unsubscribe
you said you unsubscribe
from stars
if they gave you
an ad versus an ad-free version,
you'd probably take the ad-free version.
Always.
I'm with you on that.
It's the exact same thing.
I'm with you on that.
That's all.
But I'm watching people get so bent out of shape over it.
Like, oh, you niggas.
If them folks want to go buy them a blue check, let them.
Who gives a shit?
Why is it such a big deal?
That's my problem.
I'm with you on that part.
I don't give a fuck.
If you bought it
and that's what you wanted
on your page,
you did that.
A lot of people
hate Elon Musk,
maybe rightfully so
for certain things.
So a lot of people
are just,
I'm not buying the check
because that's putting money
in his pocket.
Yeah.
He's not going to miss
your $11, bro.
I don't think he will.
He's not going to miss it.
What else we got?
Sports?
Are we there?
It's a lot of sports.
It's a lot of sports.
It's just so much sports.
It is a lot of sports.
Knicks in five.
Knicks in five.
In the heat,
that's what you got?
Knicks in five.
Knicks in six really
but Knicks in five
because I put it in a rap song before.
Nixon 5, yo.
That's it.
Ain't nothing to talk about.
We're better.
We're deeper.
We're just better, man.
It's going to be good.
Home crowd in Miami.
Our second playoff series win in 20 years.
That got to feel good, though.
That part right there got to feel good.
Well, it feels good because I remember every year.
I remember all of the years.
Pablo Prigioni, Charles Smith.
I remember drafting John Wallace.
I remember Frank Weiss, Vince Duncan on him in the Olympics, Derek Harper, I was there
for Glenn Rice on the Knicks, Vin Baker on the Knicks.
I remember everything, so this feels good.
The two people I'm happy for is you and Cass, because y'all have been there through it all, Nick fans.
I saw somebody say the other day, they was like, yo, Nick fans are like Cowboy fans.
I'm like, no, they're not.
Cowboy fans swear every year is their year.
Nick fans know we don't have a shot.
Let's take now.
But they still just rock with their squad.
They got that Nick pride.
Well, and the Cowboys have won in my lifetime, multiple times.
So I don't even look at Nick fans and Cowboy fans.
Cowboys was a dynasty.
You had a team and had an owner that was dedicated to winning,
whether you agreed with how you went about it or not.
The Knicks, for a long time, organizationally,
were just trash and bad.
It didn't seem like the owner was trying to put, ever since,
yeah, I go back to the old Dolan.
This is a new Dolan. I keep having to remember that.
Ever since
the new Dolan got in, he never wanted to
hire basketball minds.
Why would you? You are one of the
most valuable sports franchises
while you're losing. You're going to sell out.
You're going to sell out regardless.
Financial capital of the world, y'all going to sell out.
Y'all have location. Corporate tickets, y'all got a location. Yeah, that that wasn't his focus. Financial capital of the world. Y'all going to sell out. Y'all have location. Corporate tickets.
Y'all got to look.
Yeah, that's right.
So to see where we are now, and again, I talk about where we are as an organization, not just as a team on the floor.
We are well coached.
We are deep.
We are young and youthful.
We have mad draft picks.
We got veterans.
Like the Knicks, the Knicks are all right, man man I'm happy for them I'm proud of them and as crazy as you want to call me I do see a viable pathway to the
finals now do I think that they'll get there probably not but crazier things have happened
crazier things have happened and it looks like one of those wacky, wacky playoffs is happening now.
Just like the bubble.
Just like in the bubble.
It looked like a wacky playoffs is happening right now.
This playoffs is nuts.
I love it, though.
Congratulations to the Knicks fans out there.
Salute.
Game one tomorrow, Sunday.
You already know the vibes.
And that's that.
But back to the playoffs as a whole.
Your team's out, right?
Cleveland?
I'm a Laker fan.
Wasn't he going for Cleveland?
He was.
Every year.
I was rooting for Cleveland versus the Lakers.
He's secretly a Cleveland fan.
He's a Cleveland fan on the low.
Okay.
I was rooting for Cleveland against the Knicks, but I'm a Laker fan.
He's spoken better about the Cavs than he has about the Lakers This entire time that I've been asking him about the Cavs
That's the funny part
People take fandom
And because I'm a fan of a team
That don't mean I'm not realistic
So if my team ain't shit
I'm the person to come in here and say my team ain't shit
A lot of people will be like
Yo my team we gonna win
Your team is 1-14
As far as basketball I've been egregiously bad.
That's your opinion.
And you're reading the comments.
I don't read the comments.
It's all right, bro.
What I'm saying is this.
You picked the Cavs in five against the Knicks.
You picked the Cavs last year to go to the Eastern Conference Finals.
I mean, to the NBA finals.
I did not.
I picked Atlanta.
I didn't pick the Cavs.
I picked Atlanta last year.
OK, OK.
Yo, what I'm saying, I don't ride the wave.
Why you don't own your badness, though? Like, it I'm saying, I don't ride the wave. Why you don't own
your badness though?
I just said.
Like it don't take
nothing away from you
as a man.
Who said I'm not owning it?
If I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
I said the Knicks,
they beat the Cavs.
I picked the Cavs prior to.
That's the thing
with picking something.
You picking it prior to,
you going to stand
on what you pick.
Oh shit,
I didn't know
what picking mean.
No, but you'll come in here
and make an excuse as to why you ain't really mean it. That was condescending. Yo, I didn't know what you were picking me. No, but you'll come in here and make an excuse
as to why you ain't really mean it.
That was condescending.
You know, I didn't think
the Giants was going to do nothing.
No, you was...
Anyway, what I'm saying is this.
I'm a Laker fan.
I did pick Cleveland to win.
I thought Cleveland
were the more talented team.
They just got bullied out.
They played soft.
I had to ask him last part
to say something positive
about the Lakers.
Anything.
It took a while.
It ain't really much
to say positive.
It was a 3-1. Give me predictions for the game.
They up 3-2
and they have a home game.
You talk me through what that home game
is going to look like.
The Lakers
are iffy.
I don't put much stake in
some of the shit that the Lakers are doing.
The Lakers are iffy.
I don't know who watches basketball.
The Lakers could lose every single game.
We play streaky.
I'm not super duper happy with where we stand.
I think that Memphis could beat us tomorrow.
So you don't...
I tell the truth.
What can I say?
No, I'm not saying you don't tell the truth.
I'm saying, do you feel good about going into the game?
Does his voice sound like he feels good?
No, like, dog, it's game six.
We've given these young boys some hope that they can beat us.
They out here showing their ass.
Sports is a game of momentum.
And now Memphis has the momentum.
They have confidence that they can beat us.
They don't give a fuck about Bron.
They don't care about AD.
They don't care about the names.
They showing their ass.
So, honestly, if it was 2-2 I don't think they gonna beat us two games in a row but they have a shot okay I'm a Laker fan though till I die but I can
still tell the truth about my team I'm just sitting here pissed at Atlanta and
get the job done I needed that they weren't gonna get the job done I did not want to play that couch I just
didn't want to play Boston that's all I'm a sixer I see a viable path for the
Knicks getting to the finals what viable path is that nigga mr. photo got the
ring and Lord of the Rings that ain't shit you want me to answer the question
bro all right you you hate the Knicks?
Yo you be wrong
He just sit there talking
And be wrong
When you wrong
You just gotta shut the fuck up
Sometimes
You wanted the Knicks
You couldn't be
No not about the Lakers
I'm talking about the Knicks
You can say what you want
About your team
That's your team
But when we get to the Knicks
You have been worse than wrong
So all of that
Knicks sass
While we in the playoffs
While we in the second round Let me tell you the viable path.
Already beat Miami three out of four times.
I said that already.
We've also beat Boston three out of four times already.
And we do pretty well against teams that we match up well with.
I don't think that's Philly because Embiid is Embiid.
But Embiid, like I've been saying, is one fragile fall away.
And if that fall happens,
you don't think,
I think the Knicks healthy
could beat the Sixers?
Fuck yeah.
I don't know what the NBA
is trying to do
with adding some parody,
but it feels more parody
than I've ever,
than I can remember.
It's the most parody
in 10 plus years.
It's more than I can ever remember.
I'm agreeing with that.
Like when niggas was hype about the Kings being up
two nothing against the Warriors,
that felt like parody.
I like the parody of it.
Me too.
Is it unrealistic?
Hey, maybe I'll give that to you,
but I can see a path.
And if it would happen,
like we said,
this is a wacky playoffs.
This would be the one where just some,
the stars align and them fuckers go and do it.
Dog, I was there in 99 when the Knicks as an AFC went to the finals with no Patrick Ewing.
Like, I've seen wacky things happen with the team before.
Now, speaking of Knicks, because one of those wacky things I was talking about was Miami taking care of business against Milwaukee.
And I got laughed at every time I said it.
And what do you know? Miami took care of business against Milwaukee. And I got laughed at every time I said it. And what do you know?
Miami took care of business against Milwaukee
and they went home.
I watched that game.
That was one of the better games that I've seen
in the last 30 years.
Amazing.
And everything that you thought could happen,
like every time you thought the game was over
and you said, but there's still a path for Miami to do X, Y.
They did it.
They did. Yep. I was on the phone. I was trying to, but there's still a path for Miami to do X, Y. They did it. They did.
Yep.
I was on the phone.
I was trying to go to the strip club.
I was trying to leave at midnight.
That game didn't end until 1240.
Between overtime, the miraculous Jimmy Butler.
That was crazy.
That was crazy.
Catch layup with.86.
Falling down.
That was crazy.
Yeah, it's crazy that Brooke Lopez wasn't in the game as a 7'4 center.
Budenheiser really fucked that game up.
All around the board.
You don't let one man score close to 100 points in two games.
Word.
You don't.
This nigga ain't fucking Kobe Bryant.
What the fuck are we talking about?
What are the average for the series?
Damn near 40.
37.
Damn near 40.
That's a mistake.
That's a mistake on them.
On Drew Holiday and Greek Freak, I don't want to hear all that good defense shit.
I don't want to hear that shit.
That's coaching.
You have defenders on that team.
That's bad coaching.
But anyway, dog, do you see who they had on the floor with Jimmy Butler in overtime and in the last?
My Nixon five, yo.
They don't even have nobody on the bench.
All that Celeb Williams, Celeb Williams. Who else they got? Some other bunch. I don't see it. I don't even have nobody on the bench. All X, Celeb Williams, Collab Williams.
Who else they got?
Some other bunch.
I don't see it.
I don't see it.
I don't see it.
But that game was great.
Yeah, definitely.
Tell me about what y'all think of Greek Freak's post-game press conference interview that everybody was talking about.
Where Eric, the reporter, said, do you view this season as a failure?
Greek Freak had enough of his shit. He said, do you view this season as a failure? Greek freak had enough of his shit.
He said, you asked me this last year.
He stewed on that.
That was one of them.
He took a shower the next day and was like,
damn, I should have said.
And then he had this for the next year to plot his retort.
He looked like, what he looked like to me was,
you know, they see these reporters all year long.
And some of them you got a relationship with,
you're cool with.
He looked like, damn, not you. or you know the fuck-ass reporter he looked like it was
oh not you or this is the fuck-ass reporter and today i'm going to tell him something
what do you think of what he said though in terms of as far as there's no
failing in sports he's right and he's wrong i see both sides yeah he's right and he's wrong. I see both sides. Yeah, he's right and he's wrong. And I've heard both sides.
I've heard Stephen A. Smith go against J. Will,
and I also heard Shaq go against Kenny Smith.
I see both sides.
If you set out, and I hear athletes say this,
I'm not a professional athlete,
but a lot of athletes say championship or bust.
A lot of athletes say basically if you don't win a championship,
then your season was a bust.
I've heard them say that.
I can't speak to their mentality, but I saw both sides.
Shaq said basically if you're in that position, you're our number one seed.
If you don't win a championship, you all fail.
And that's why it's a failure.
It'd be one thing if you're a team that's up and coming,
like the Knicks, for example,
if they were to go out in the next round,
which I don't think they will,
you would still say this season is a success.
We have built something.
We're building up to something.
The Bucs have won a championship.
They've been a top five team for the past however many years.
For them to go out in the first round is a failure.
The people in Milwaukee going to hate me.
I always thought that they was fool's gold.
Always.
I wasn't too hyped on them.
I was scared of them healthy.
They're not even a team though.
But that little, that little, that chip,
let me shut up.
I think it's based on what your expectations are.
You get what I'm saying?
Like, so if you exceed your expectations,
then niggas don't look at it like that.
But if you underachieve,
then people look at you like you failed.
And I also look at it as,
whatever you did,
like if you improved on last year,
I don't see it as a failure.
Whatever you got.
Like last year,
we didn't make the playoffs.
This year, we made it.
Season's not a failure.
Like, we've improved.
Yeah.
As long as you've made steps to get better,
I don't look at it as a failure.
I felt like his statement was mainly just,
was about growth.
You know?
But they didn't grow.
Yeah.
So that's where he's wrong.
Yes, that's why it can be looked at both ways.
For some people, his statement is absolutely right.
For him and that team, his statement is not right.
It resonated with who it was supposed to.
Like it's going to be one of those things that's added to reels.
You know what I mean?
Oh, yeah, for sure.
Somebody would have said, yo, if you ask Kobe Bryant that question,
we already know what the answer is going to be.
If you ask Michael Jordan that question,
you already know what the answer is going to be.
So the greats look at it in a manner of, yo, either we won or we didn't,
and if we didn't, we failed.
So that wasn't champion talk.
But the greats are also psychotic in the head.
True.
But that's what makes them great for me.
So that may not be how the rest of the world is.
True.
What's your stance?
I agree with Greek Freak.
So if the Joe Button podcast fell to 10th
for the next six months,
you wouldn't come in?
I can't hear what you said.
If we did what?
If the Joe Button podcast went to 10th,
went to 7th, went to 5th for the next six months,
you wouldn't come in here and act like, yo, we failing?
I disagree.
Well, you can't because I kind of went through that.
Like, it's kind of happened.
Like, when y'all first came, and I'm not making this podcast review time,
but when y'all first came, I viewed it as we in the middle of a rebuild.
The fans were holding that team and that rebuilding process up against old crew
at its peak, greatest in the world.
They would look at that and say,
oh, this is a failure.
You have regressed.
They did.
They did.
I'm saying, but I just look at that as-
I looked at it as i looked at
it as give me the same amount of time with this squad and i think that we have the potential to
be better than ever i think that was my psychotic brain so i agree with greek freak if in the process
of the loss you pick something up that's going to further you next year or later or in that other championship,
then that's a win. Hopefully.
Then that's a win.
I think anything else would be short-sighted.
I think it's apples to oranges.
That particular analogy that you just gave
because it's like saying
if Greek freak and Bledsoe
got hurt,
then you can't hold them to the same stick
that you held them to healthy.
You understand what I'm saying? So with the Joe
Button podcast, when
you can't hold me an ice new walking in
the door to the same stick that you held the
old podcast to. Sure you can.
Teams be a whole new team.
This Bucs team ain't the same as last year's
Bucs team. The core of the
Bucs team is the same. But it's not the same Bucs
team.
Alright, you win. The core of the Bucs team is the same. But it's not the same Bucs team. All right.
You win.
So I just think that the assessment, you know, I see both sides of that argument.
I just see both sides of the argument.
I think what he said was really humbling.
I think he's an amazing guy.
And I think that the analogy that he gave was a good one.
When he said Michael Jordan lost some championships, won some championships.
The seasons that he didn't win championships, was he a failure?
No.
That was his stance.
But I think if you ask Michael Jordan, he might say yes.
I was about to say he might not have looked at it as a failure,
but he could say we as a team, we failed this year.
We didn't get it done.
Like they go into – the goal is the championship.
That's what they go into the season at game one of the season.
We want to be there at the end
holding up the trophy.
And as a fan,
I don't want to see my team being like,
oh, no, it's cool.
Like, I don't want to see that from my team.
Yeah.
Unless there was a mitigating situation,
someone major got injured,
something like that.
That's just old school.
I like that.
We can move on.
But I like that these new age guys don't put all the stock in the world on the championship
like the niggas in the 80s and 90s did.
I do too.
It's way more to do.
It's way more to life.
This is a structure that y'all didn't fucking come up with.
This is them on their capitalistic shit and a way to make the most money that they can
every single year.
I'm not with players devoting life or death, their life,
to this fucking man-made shit over here.
Get this shit the fuck out of here.
Dame Lillard, Carmelo, Chris Paul.
There's a lot of players that never won
that just speak to their love,
passion of the game,
and how much they learned
and took from the game.
I'm not calling people fake.
I look at Charles Barkley every day.
Every day on that screen. Never won shit fair. I look at Charles Barkley every day. Every day on that screen.
Never won shit.
But I know about Charles Barkley.
You can't shit on Charles Barkley.
Like, he could go to bed feeling like he maybe should have got one.
But, nigga, you ran into Mike.
You ran into Mike.
I don't hold that against players.
Me either.
Career-wise at all.
If it didn't happen, it didn't happen.
There's a lot of great players.
Like you said, if we're the one seed this year,
and y'all went out in the first round, I don't care, bro.
That's a failed season.
I'm with you on that.
I don't care.
Now, as exciting as that Bucs heat game was,
wasn't my most exciting number one seed upset.
And this is between, of course, Denver and Seattle, 94,
the Warriors and the Mavs.
Mavs.
That was the one for me.
That was the one.
That was the one.
That was the one.
B.D., Al Jefferson.
That was crazy.
That was the one.
Steve Jackson.
Them three.
They was going crazy.
Al Jefferson, Al Harrington.
They said Miami is the first team to be the eight.
Matt Barnes.
And upset the one and also be the one and got upset by the eight.
Like, you know how they come up with this.
Miami got upset by the eight.
Alonzo Mourner.
I don't know what heat team it was, but it was.
Oh, they're the first team.
The next one.
To be on both sides of that.
I'm assuming.
Miami's tough.
Jimmy Butler,
pack up a bag, buddy.
Hey, hope you got your vacation spot
lined up.
Hey, you can go wherever you want
in a matter of two weeks.
It's just going to take two weeks, buddy.
That's all.
Don't even worry about it.
Five games?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Quick five.
Quick five.
Oh, man.
I want my team to get past Boston this year, bro.
Them boys is tough, though.
Prediction.
Realistic?
Both.
All right.
Unrealistic, I would say the sixes in five.
Realistic is Boston in five.
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, realistic is Boston is five.
Nah, nah, nah. Y'all go with some.
I'm playing.
I'm playing.
I'm playing.
It might go seven.
It could.
It might go seven.
Boston is six.
Nixon is six.
He get right to it.
I got Boston in six.
And Nixon six.
But I hope Philly wins.
I see Boston in six. I'm rooting for Philly. I'm rooting for Philly wins. I see Boston in 6.
I'm rooting for Philly.
I'm rooting for Philly too.
I'm rooting for Philadelphia.
I'm rooting for Philly.
If you live in,
well, Philly's kind of
the second tier of teams
that you're just supposed to hate
if you're from New York.
Boston,
I always root against Boston
and everything.
Yeah, me too.
Shout out to Boston, the city,
but sports-wise,
automatic.
Shout out to B-Buddy.
Sorry.
Philly's right behind them, but they're behind them.
Step up.
Yeah.
All right.
We interrupt our very important sports segment to bring in our financial literacy brothers.
Some ballers.
They can promote some shit.
So they can promote some shit.
We have Troy and Rashad from Earn Your Leisure.
Good brothers, please.
Please, good brothers. Guys, we got it.
Hello, rap.
Y'all may have seen them on their YouTube channel.
You may have seen them with Tyler Perry,
the owner of Popeyes.
You may have seen them at Steve Jobs' gravesite.
Anybody that has a lot of money,
you've seen Floyd Mayweather.
These guys have been with all of the big money people.
I like that.
Now, we have the Earn Your Leisure brothers here with us.
We are honored to have you friends of the show.
Yes, sir.
Welcome back.
Rashad Troy is here taking advantage of the platform and the relationship.
They're on a press run.
They told us they got a hard out.
They got all types of shit going on.
Let me put this down so I can see.
How are you good brothers doing?
We are doing great.
Thank you for having us, bro.
Thank you for coming.
Melissa, thank you for clapping us in.
Appreciate that.
Of course, of course.
Big fan.
Was she the only one that clapped?
Yes.
Well, no, Parks joined in.
I clapped.
There we go.
There we go.
Okay.
I thought we were better than that.
You my man.
He's at every show.
That's what we do.
Yeah, I don't think we got to do that.
You know what I'm saying?
You don't think we got to clap for them even though you be at every show?
Yeah, my brown.
So you want to clap for my brother?
You know what I'm saying?
We'll see you in August.
Look, I'm at every show.
That speaks more than a clap.
That's a fact.
That's a fact.
That's our guy.
Let's start with all of the things that your publicist told you to say when you got here.
I know y'all are good with y'all's bulletin points, so get them all.
I'm not throwing no alley-oops today.
I'm not throwing y'all a question for you to Dominique Wilkins dunk it.
Yeah, man.
It's just education of financial black people, and I'm not doing none of that shit today.
Y'all tell me what's going on.
What's happening?
August, we bike.
We definitely back in August.
Was y'all at Podfest?
Oh, y'all was in Vegas.
What was that?
What's Podfest?
You know what?
Just let that bus go by.
No, we didn't make it.
We were in Vegas.
We was in Vegas.
I was trying to link up with you
just on some friendship.
Can you please put the mic
a little closer to you
so I can hear you?
We were doing our journalistic duties.
I hit you up, man,
just to catch lunch,
try to have some brotherhood,
fellowship.
Just ignored you?
Oh, yeah.
Left him on read.
No, he didn't read it.
That's an old...
He didn't read it.
That's a trip
because I know that trip.
I know that trip.
What's the trip?
What's the trip?
All right, so we're corresponding, right?
So obviously we have communications at least three times.
So then when it's in bold, like, yo, I'm going to come over there.
What time?
You hear what the cab's like?
He doesn't read it, so he can say six hours later, yo, my bad.
Plausible deniability.
Yo, my bad.
I was running around Whitefield all day.
So you can't.
Because what Instagram does is they'll give us a little preview of the message.
No, exactly.
That's what I'm saying. And if you don't want to read any more of it at that moment, then you can't. Because what Instagram does is they'll give us a little preview of the message. No, exactly. That's what I'm saying.
And if you don't want to read any more of it at that moment, then you can just put it away.
So it's a way out.
Until later.
But now, like I explained to you, because don't come on here and try to kick my back and make me look bad.
As I explained to you, we were out there on different times.
No, I appreciate that.
I was out there on date life, date time, which is what I said to him.
Yo, I'm with my girl.
You could have just let me know that, though.
That's all.
I did.
No, you didn't.
Six hours later.
Boy, that's when I was back.
From that time.
When I'm with my baby, Instagram don't even really exist to me.
I like that.
It was one minute after we just had a conversation.
Well, she got out the bathroom.
She good.
She got out the bathroom.
I like that.
Once she came out the bathroom, I can't sit there and just be DMing.
I respect that.
Because she going to say,
yo, what's going on?
I'm going to say,
yo, it's Rashad.
He want me to get up for lunch.
But I just want you to know that
that was just out of love.
I know you love me.
I just want you to know that.
I know you love me.
I just want you to know that.
Congrats.
He reversed the heat a little bit there.
These two brothers are good. Yeah, my hand is up. I know you love me. I just want you to know that. Congrats. He reversed it a little bit there. These two brothers are good.
Yeah, my hand is up.
What's up?
This guy's hand raised.
It's coming from me.
How?
Three months ago, you made a comment about the Jay-Z thing.
It's been a lot of-

I appreciate that.
Yeah, definitely.
Thank you.
We got a ticket of how many times you mentioned it, so I just want to say thank you in advance.
I believe that, because y'all PR firm don't play, boy.
Leno one minute.
No, we got people who listen to the show.
Y'all, they go from math to Leno.
These niggas don't play right here.
Vanson jackets.

Now he's doing the inventory of what I got on.
Dirty Gucci's.
Oh, shit.
Dirty.
Old Gucci's.
I mean, they don't sell these no more.
Now they bring them out and make them look dirty from the...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're a little vintage.
Look, I appreciate that.
Sleeve rolled up a little bit to see that thing, that boy.
See that boy right there.
No, because the last time you said that, we weren't humble.
So I said today, let's...
Y'all are the furthest thing from humble.
I don't appreciate that. Y'all are the furthest thing from humble. I don't appreciate that.
Y'all are the furthest thing.
I think the first thing
people tell us is that,
yo, how humble you guys are.
I can't hear both of y'all
at the same time.
The first thing people say
when they meet us,
right,
yo, you guys are so humble,
so down to earth.
So they lying to you.
They believe the lie.
No, no, no, no.
They lying to them.
And they believe the lie.
There you go.
Listen, you gonna let them do this?
I am, I, listen, I'm just waiting for my time to get in here.
This is our dear friend.
Yes.
She's the homie.
Everybody's y'all dear friend because y'all don't create enemies.
I mean.
It's not a bad thing.
Well played.
Well played.
What?
Or should we?
You know.
What, create enemies?
Yeah.
A little controversy?
Are you asking me?
Spice it up a little bit?
Are you asking me?
Yeah, I'm asking.
Yes.
Why?
We've had this conversation.
Because the person that gets along with everyone
gets along with no one.
That's why.
Philosophy.
I know.
I know there's a slip side to the coin,
but I stick by that.
The person that gets along with everyone gets along with no one. Can you explain that? philosophy. I know. I know there's a flip side to the coin, but that's I stick by that.
The person that gets along with everyone gets along with no one. Can you explain that?
Y'all, I don't need to explain it to you, but I will just ask you, can you explain it?
There is no one that gets along with everyone. So the person that appears to be getting along with everyone is front and he's normally fronting for advertising purposes.
You gentlemen know plenty about advertising.
Y'all can't be yourselves, your true selves and talk like you do when it's just the niggas
in Vegas in a room because y'all will lose a lot of money.
I don't think that's true.
You watch Market Mondays?
I don't watch Market Mondays.
I disagree.
You don't watch Market Mondays?
You don't watch your shit?
Wait, hold up.
Slow down.
Slow down.
Slow down.
Yo, slow down.
No, he don't watch. You didn't tell him again? No? Wait, hold up. Slow down. Slow down. Slow down. Slow down. Yo, slow down.
No, he don't watch.
Can you tell him again?
No, no, hold up.
It's just talking.
The whole tone of the response.
I feel ambushed.
I thought he was coming here.
But don't assume.
Don't assume we watch your shit.
I feel ambushed, bro.
Listen, listen, listen.
I don't watch the Joe Budden podcast.
I don't watch no podcast.
Clean it up.
Clean up on Al Saban.
Clean up Al Saban. Bucket of please. Bucket of please, please. I don't believe the Joe Button podcast. I don't watch no podcast. Clean it up. Clean up with Al Seven. Clean up Al Seven.
Bucket of please.
Bucket of please, please.
I don't believe in the creative enemies.
I'm standing with you.
I don't believe in that.
Can I get three buckets of please?
So stupid, yo.
But you were saying, what were you about to say?
I feel ambushed because...
First and foremost.
My who, yo?
Who we got, yo?
The whole vibe.
Never.
Never.
It's a hostility that I wasn't expecting. I really wasn't expecting this hostility.
Because we always had great relationships.
We are amazing.
I think we still do.
We still have great relationships.
But I disagree with what you're saying.
I disagree with Joe, too.
It's very hos- it's not hospitable.
Because the way it's- it's hard for me to focus. It's not hospitable. Who way it's causing me to focus.
It's not hospitable.
Who's not showing you hospitality?
Joe definitely.
I didn't even get to my tough question.
I didn't even get to my tough question.
I'm not over this.
But when Corey and me was like,
yo, Rashad and Troy want to come up,
I said,
I just don't watch porn.
But the way you said it was like, no, I'm not watching that show.
Troy, tell me what part of,
I'm saying that you disagree with.
Yeah, I think we show up as our authentic self everywhere.
So anybody that's ever encountered us.
So in all these years of success, y'all are the only niggas that haven't made an enemy
anywhere yet.
We have enemies.
I'm sure we do.
Oh, so tell me about them.
No, I'm sure we do.
I just don't know who they are.
Oh, you haven't identified them.
I'm not paying attention to them.
So y'all could guess the stock before it crashed.
Y'all could guess Wall Street.
Y'all could guess Bitcoin. But you can't. Y'all could guess Wall Street. Y'all can guess Bitcoin.
Y'all can guess what the
Walgreens family is about to do.
But you can't guess.
All right, I understand.
But look, of course,
everybody has enemies,
especially when you reach
a certain level of success.
There's certain people
that you might have been
friends with at one point in time
that that relationship changes.
Tell me about them.
It's not important
to tell you about it
because we focus on something
way bigger than that.
That's true. You can't focus on two things
at one time. So us,
it's like we really focus.
It's difficult.
Is it? To me. While I'm
succeeding, I keep, you ever heard of third eye?
I keep my third eye
on the losers. Really.
Make sure that they're still losers.
Stay there like.
Keep your foot on that. You want to make sure they stay there. Yeah, that they're still losers. Stay there like. Keep your foot on the net.
You want to make sure
they stay there.
Yeah.
Because I can multitask.
I see them losers.
They wear bright clothes
all the time.
They make themselves
so easy to spot.
Scott, man.
But you were saying.
I feel like.
I feel like we have
done a great job
at creating bridges.
Right.
And it's important.
It's important.
Now relationships are important.
I'm being honest with you.
I'm muting up and letting y'all get all of this bullshit out.
Because it's not bullshit.
All right, let's take an event like InvestFest, right?
We have Rich Paul, Steve Harvey, Jeezy, Robert Smith,
who's the richest black person in American history, Diddy, 19 Keys.
Allegedly.
Don't just start saying fact.
We've had rich kings.
Who?
We've had black rich kings.
American.
American.
American history.
American history.
So that's no history.
All right, but go ahead.
Yo, what's up with those men?
What's up with those men?
Yo, what's up?
He's just ready for the confrontation.
We've had black kings in America.
Robert Smith. Robert Smith, Diddy, all of these people, right? What's up? He's just ready for it. We got black kids in America.
Robert Smith.
Robert Smith, Ditty, all of these people, right?
That's on a handshake.
That's on relationships.
There's no contract.
There's no corporate.
The only way that we can be able to establish that is to actually have a bridge.
For sure.
To extend all of bridge.
When everybody else is destroying, we building.
For sure.
It's work.
It's beneficial. You watching it in real time. You see it. I believe that. So you can, we building. For sure. It's work. It's beneficial.
You're watching it in real time.
You see it. I believe that.
So you can't say it's not working.
It's working.
So why would we go against that formula and change that now when we've only built it on
positivity?
We've only built it on relationships.
We only built it on helping other people and them looking out for us.
And that's something that we always do to this day.
Everything that we've always done
has always been like that.
Before that.
But that goes back to the controversy, right?
If we do that, then you alienate a side
or you alienate a person.
And it's like, nah, we built on a foundation
on relationships, we built on business.
That's what we built on, right?
So to have the controversy,
I see with the standpoint that you may look,
that lens that you're looking at it from,
and we've had that conversation,
like does it make sense to have it?
Y'all keep naming the richest nigga in world the owner taco bell i don't expect i don't expect you
these things are frustrating
i do not expect the people that y'all are naming to hate on you to throw stones in your path
to hate on you, to throw stones in your path.
I don't expect that behavior from them.
My question was about the people that are also seeing the same things I'm seeing from y'all,
which is a lot of growth, a lot of rapid elevation.
The trajectory is what y'all are doing.
I say it all the time, so I don't need to tell it to y'all.
What y'all are doing in I say it all the time, so I don't need to tell it to y'all. What y'all are doing in this very small window is phenomenal.
And there were some people that were not Robert Smith, not Tyler Perry, that were right there with you ground level.
Y'all don't get to escape some of the same things that other black millionaires have to go through.
We just had Simba up here talking about how difficult it is, loss of friendship when you're on your way to your goal.
So it's cool that you're telling me about Robert Smith.
But our thing is different.
Here's why our thing is different, right?
From everybody else.
And no disrespect, I don't know any of these people personally,
so I don't know their situation.
But our thing is different because we all grew up together.
So you see me and Troy, we knew each other our whole lives.
Abdullah, he used to work for Troy. Our other partner, Mike, we got about 30 people that we employ. 90% of them is
our family and friends. I'm asking about 31 to 35. But what I'm telling you is that that's not
normal. That's not your focus. That's not normal, right? So it's like our whole situation is
different. We grew up, like everybody that we know, we grew up with, we work with, we empowered them.
We stimulate their economy, they stimulate our economy.
So those stories, of course, there's always gonna be issues.
But we are.
I can't wait to a scandal come out on you, niggas.
I ain't even.
Why would you stop waiting to a scandal?
I keep telling you.
You told us that the last time we were here.
I cannot wait. You said it's happening.
It's gonna happen.
I look forward.
Why do you look forward to a scandal?
I'm just curious.
Because he likes the fuck shit
Yeah
I mean
I can't wait neither
I mean that's one way
That's one way to do it
I can't wait
I agree
I can't wait
Like
Why
You guys are aware of
Whatever shots
And people that don't like you
You're just not addressing it
Of course
Exactly
Why would you
Why would you give that attention
You up here
Why would you
Why would you give that attention
When they go low
We go high.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Old school 1994 shit.
That shit niggas don't follow that.
It's not that they're doing good.
Y'all doing, you know, y'all doing your thing.
But that's why they, that could be why they continue to do good.
That's how you continue to thrive.
You throw rocks at the throne.
You don't throw rocks from the throne.
You don't throw rocks from the throne.
That's a fact.
Well.
That's a good line.
Ooh, yeah, me.
You ain't seen some of these new thrones on Wayfair.
You ain't seen Black Knight or all the movies.
They had you on the throne, right?
Number one in the space, right?
Complex did.
That was not Joe Budden.
I thought I was going to come here and see it.
Or anyone that Joe Budden knows and loves.
But they did.
Stop, because that just got me in a lot of trouble.
Stop.
There's no trouble.
It's the controversy.
It's the discussion. Any publicity is good, right? It it is trouble because i want to have good relationships like y'all
it is trouble for me because i want to be have a good representation and have really good healthy
relationships and create bridges everywhere that i go like y'all when i go home it bothers me and
frustrates me at fucking night that there are people out there that i'm not harmonious with
that there's some people out there that I'm not harmonious with.
That there's some people out there that are struggling with having
that great relationship with me
and I could have done more to mend it
and I didn't.
It bought.
So when I see you guys,
you brothers.
Man, shut up.
Yo, stop.
I'm gonna tell you to stop.
I'm gonna tell them to blow you a kiss.

You know what I'm saying?
Nah, man.
Tell them what you really are.
Nah, but honestly, in that moment, I'm like, damn.
Like Machiavellian.
This is how Pac felt.
That's the only thing I can really think about.
Like, yo, you're walking through the casino,
and you got some of the rarest fabrics that's ever been made.
Yep.
And it's a vibe. Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yo, you got to pay the price.
Yo, you got to pay the picture.
Yo, I'm not going to.
Pay the picture, though.
What, you going to be a lot of you?
You ringside.
You got silk on.
Bro, what you?
You walking past the MG.
What's the last time we seen Pac?
Pac and them had just stomped a nigga out.
Yeah, that's what I was like.
He's missing a part of this, yo.
Mind his jigs, like.
Mind his jigs, though. Yeah. It's a major part of this, yo. Minds up. Minds up. Minds up.
It's a major part of this, man.
Now I got my show.
Minds up.
Minds up part.
Yo, Cho, what you want me to do to you, bro?
A lot of you, bro.
Like, this is real shit.
A couple years ago, we was regular people
watching television, right?
So you're not regular.
So you're not regular.
No. No. I didn't say that, Cho. But what I'm saying is that. But he said that. was regular people watching television so you're not ready so you're not regular
no i didn't say that but what i'm saying is what he said
i'm with him now we've got you guys let me tell the story so it's like when we um so we seen fat joe at all-star game right yes and he was like yo what's up with y'all man like what's up with
y'all like he's like yo i keep running into y'all like what are y'all doing because it's like we're moving around and we're not rappers we're not athletes but we live in the life we
front row at the fights we at the super bowl we at all-star game we grammy fabrics we doing what we
so i could sit here and lie to you or i could tell you the truth tell me the truth
that's how i'm feeling like in'm saying In that moment And it's like
Yeah
It's a good feeling
To be able to
Do what you want to do
Empower your friends
Not have to do it
By tearing somebody down
Do it through education
And
Live that life
Like
I'm not gonna water that down
It's inspirational
Yeah
Joe has a question
Just for my crew though
Not you niggas
Just that fast We have a full circle moment They killed Pac Joe has a question? Just for my crew, though. Not you niggas.
Just that fast,
we have a full circle moment.
They killed Pac.
Yeah.
So I was asking them if along their journey
there was anybody in the world
that could not be the happiest
about their journey.
Pac made a whole career
out of robbing enemies.
Yeah, yeah.
They gave him enemies.
A little different.
He gave me a whole bunch of bullshit. A enemies. Yeah, yeah. They gave me enemies. A little different. A whole bunch of bullshit.
A little different.
So y'all think that y'all,
and that's why I say I can't wait for them to encounter something.
Because the financial literacy niggas have just been out here
seemingly not encountering things.
But we come from hip-hop.
And hip-hop, we don't know nobody that has gotten up like this and not had
someone somewhere with a bad taste in their mouth so it's funny to me that you reference
park walking through the casino because this energy and that energy don't look too different
of course so of course there's some level of comic to it, right? It's not like an exact
of course we're not, like I said. It don't seem comical.
A few days before, you took
a picture with Bronny James.
You took a picture with
Bronny James inbounding the ball.
What is happening?
Look at the comments, right?
If you look at the comments. Who took the picture of
you and Bronny James? That was a professional
photographer. Whose? Get James That was a professional photographer
Whose
Getty Image
Whose professional photographer
It was the
McDonald's All Americans game
Professional photographer
Okay but your shot
You know the shot
I'm talking about
Yeah
You're talking about
We was next to
Slim Thug
Yeah yeah
We was on a bench
And Bronny's in the huddle
Or something like that
I didn't see Getty Images
On that picture
Oh you're talking about
I think I snapped it Yeah you took the. Oh, you're talking about... I think that's not good.
Yeah, that's not good.
Oh.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What's wrong with that?
Nothing.
That's different.
If you want to exploit a kid.
If we compare...
If you want to exploit somebody's child.
For your own fame and fortune.
Oh, Joey.
I mean, nothing's wrong with that.
Joey, we had a...
So, in real life, when you...
I don't know you don't go outside
too much right
so but it's like
when you go to a
basketball game
and you happen to sit
in the front row
and you sit like
right next to the bitch
there's no such thing
as happen to sit
in the front row
that's the other thing
no it actually isn't
here's how you happen
to sit in the front row
give it to me
no you get invited
to sit there
you get invited
so it's not happen
no you don't know
where you're gonna sit
cause you didn't pay for it
and it just so happens that you're right next to the head coach.
It's like, oh, I didn't know that.
Thank you, McDonald's.
Appreciate it.
So now when you take a picture, it's difficult not to get a basketball player in the picture if you're next to the basketball team.

What they did, yo?
Angie Martinez.
Al Harrington.
Junior Bridgman.
Gang.
He got gang up there.
He got the gang up there.
Salute. All family and friends. Everybody likes us, Joe Bridgeman. Gang. He got gang up there. He got the gang up there. Salute.
All family and friends are good people.
Everybody likes us, Joe.
Like, everybody like us.
We don't really care.
That's not true, though.
You know some people that don't like us.
You know people that don't like us.
And so do y'all.
But they don't matter.
So you can't say everybody like you, then.
You are aware of some people that don't like you.
These guys crazy.
Nigga, I'm not here for all that fucking friendly shit.
Tell me who they are.
I'll fire them up.
Fuck all that friendly shit.
Tell me who they are.
I'll fire them up.
What's their name?
All right.
These are good.
We can fuck them up.
I like them niggas.
These niggas are cool.
These niggas are cool.
That's just me busting their balls for them.
Nah, but there are some people that don't like us, but you know, that comes with it,
man.
I'm not aware.
You're never going to have everybody that likes you.
Is there some people that was in the same business that you guys were in?
You got ex-partners and shit like that? Nah.
Nah, nah, nah. Everybody, like literally
from kindergarten up until now,
we've known. That's not
what I asked you. That's what I said.
So you said like ex-partners, right?
Anybody that you guys don't like, y'all.
He said like ex-employees and stuff.
Nah, nah, nah. It's none of that.
It's none of that because everybody worked with him as family for 30 years.
Yeah, 30 years.
Like that means anything.
Like that means anything.
Niggas for 30 years beef all the time.
All the time.
So the niggas that don't like y'all is what?
Like?
Haters.
I don't want to call them.
No, you can't say that.
We got to stop doing it.
It's so hard.
I don't know.
They're not haters.
What make them a hater?
Why not?
I don't know.
They wouldn't be a hater.
Because these two niggas could be dislikable dudes when they go home.
True.
We don't know.
What would they say
from this day on?
I don't think they are.
But what if the niggas
that hate them
got like a valid reason
for the hate?
I think Nas said it the best.
I like these niggas,
but they my niggas.
Hate is confused admiration.
So I think that,
you know,
they really...
Oh, man.
Nah, please,
you gotta respect that.
You should respect that.
This nigga be at Barnes & Noble
is more than anything.
Nah, you gotta respect that.
This nigga be at...
So, you know,
it's never real hate. You gotta respect that. This nigga be at. So, you know, it's just, what are you?
It's never real.
Because how could you hate us?
Like, we interviewed Black Sam, bro.
We was in Crenshaw.
You saw that joint?
We was in Jamaica with fucking Bounty Killer.
These are things, like, this is for the culture.
You saying, how could niggas hate people like that?
How could you hate that?
You know what I'm saying?
Black Sam never spoke.
You ever see him speak before?
What's wrong with this nigga?
Oh, because they're not having opportunities.
That is exactly why you hate him.
But I'm saying, why would you hate that, though?
Because some niggas is haters.
I can't wait till these niggas get a scan.
I'm just saying, you got to appreciate that more than anything.
In a perfect world, yes.
Most people are not going to because they don't have the opportunity.
But that ain't how it works.
Like, somebody can sit there and say, I should do it.
Have you never heard any Khaled song?
They don't want you in a Vans.
That's a fact.
They don't want you in A-Solo's Popcorn Soft Sweats.
That's a fact.
Don't get the Gucci.
But they appreciate it.
The Vans and shit in the A-Solo is, like, disrespectful, too.
Yo, tell me about it.
Y'all still with them girls that y'all was with?
Excuse me?
Yo, this guy's crazy.
Yo, stop.
Yo, this guy's crazy.
Yo, what's up with this dude?
Yo, what the hell is this coke, man?
Stop.
Yo, what's up with this dude, man?
Now you're going too far, nigga.
Stop.
Somebody else.
Stop.
You finish him.
You finish him.
Stop.
Finish what?
Yo, this guy's crazy. What are you speaking of? What's up? You finish it. Finish it. You finish it. Stop. Finish what? You go too far today.
What's up?
This guy is crazy.
What are you speaking?
I was trying to ask.
Last time I saw y'all, I was asking y'all about,
and I'm not talking to Troy,
but I asked y'all about the financial literacy world groupies.
I did.
The groupies.
And that's something that I want to always keep up with.
All right.
Appreciate it.
So what's your question?
What's the question?
What girls are we with?
Not that I've physically seen you with.
It's just the Orvis of five.
But the girls that come with.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean.
Shadi.
Any type of success.
How is that?
It's network.
Yeah, pop.
It's networking.
It's networking.
Two shot.
And you meet a lot of great people along your journey.
All right, yo.
All right.
All right.
All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right journey. All right, yo. All right. Hey, yo.
To August.
Hey, yo.
To August.
And Vest Vest.
Coming to a town, Nick.
Somewhere.
Check it out.
These niggas.
Yeah.
What else we brought?
I'm done with their publicity shit.
We got Market Mondays Live.
That's a tour.
World tour.
Y'all been checking that out?
That's a world tour.
The next stop is in London.
Nice.
We're going to be in Chicago in October.
But we ended the year in Ghana. We did Toronto. So if y'all can't. We did Toronto. Back to back show. Shout out to the host of is in London uh we're gonna be in Chicago in October but we ended the year in
Ghana we did Toronto we did Toronto back-to-back show shout out to the host of the Toronto
he was here so we didn't get to have you up there but yeah next time yeah for sure next time we're
going back we'll tell you the details on a little bit but on a serious note let me just say the Ghana
thing because Ghana is important right we're gonna be doing we're bringing market monies to Ghana
it's December right December yeah yeah. So after Christmas,
so the 27th,
we'll be out there
through New Year's.
So it's important, right?
Like when we talk about
world domination,
on a serious note,
it's like, yo,
finances is a world issue,
right?
But who's speaking
for the people
on the continent?
And so we're trying
to bridge that.
So we're going to
end the year in Ghana.
Again, if y'all up to it,
y'all welcome to come.
There's a lot of people
that's going to be
a part of it,
so it's going to be
a serious, serious moment.
But on a serious note, it's like, once I say, like, why would you hate?
It's more so confused admiration because we literally did the impossible.
If you really think about it, right?
Like we spearhead the financial literacy movement.
A conversation that probably is the most boring, traditionally the most boring topic out of any genre, especially when it comes to black people in America.
We never wanted to hear.
So not only did we actually popularize it, now we're actually able to throw events like
InvestFest where 20,000 people come and pay to learn.
So it's like, all right, you're not paying to learn about drill music and drugs and different
things of that nature.
This is something that's positive.
It's uplifting and it could change the trajectory of your life. So this is something that we played a major part
in. So if you really think about it, that's almost impossible to accomplish that, to go on a world
tour, to have people in London, to have people in Toronto talking about financial literacy,
business, investing, stocks. So we have fun with it, and we throw the different fashion in the
music because that's who we are. That's
how we grew up. But
I think it's difficult to really
hate
on something like that.
Why would you?
You have to really self-examine yourself.
You got to self-examine yourself like, damn,
something is wrong with me. How could you hate
on something like that?
You know success breeds hate
And I'm a hater
But what he's saying
Is some niggas that are just
What he's saying is
It's confused admiration
Exactly
Because you really don't
Hate these niggas
You really admire these niggas
Exactly
And you don't know
How to congratulate them
Without being negative
That is definitely
Confused admiration
See
That's not the part
Nobody disagree with that
Oh alright
We got that part
But all of that
About how could you
Hate publicly
How could
Why would you
Like there's answers
To that
Those things
How do you hate publicly
Niggas that are
Showingly
Again I don't know
What they do
Behind closed doors
But on front street
All they represent
Is positivity
How do you publicly
Hate that
Yeah
Without looking like
Maybe because they
Don't view it like that
Without looking like An asshole Some niggas are Subjective Looking like an asshole Maybe because they don't view it like that Without looking like an asshole
Some niggas are
Subjective
With looking like an asshole
That's what you call it
That's what I said
Our relationship with people
Is transformational
Right?
Like
Other people in different spaces
Musicians
That's transactional
Right?
Like
You pay for the service
You like it or you don't
You come back if you don't
I give you information
You take that you can go anywhere
With that you can give it to your family. So it's a little different
It's not like yo, we selling this lifestyle now bro, like I'm a teacher, but I can hate you and still get the information
Say it again, but I can't
Is it do you really hate me? Well, no, it would be to confuse that that's what I'm saying
I try to let stick on people hate you
Yeah, I'm trying to stick to what do you do when the confused admirers
start to pop up.
So when I say
I can't wait for it,
it's that part
that I'm talking about.
Not saying that
they don't exist
or why would you,
but when you see them,
you're going to have
to deal with them
even as financial
literacy guys.
It's just difficult.
It's like
the sun is out
right now, right?
No.
No.
In the daytime, the sun's out.
This guy's strong.
The sun is out, right?
Yeah.
The sun is a star, but there's billions of stars.
You can't see the stars when the sun is out.
We've casted a light so bright that you can't see it.
My nigga, you write this shit down.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm going to turn.
Hey, Rashad. Hey, Rashad. That's his name? Rashad. Hey, you write this shit down. You know what I'm saying? I'm going to turn. And Rashad.
And Rashad.
And you write this shit down?
Nah.
Stop practicing shit that you write down to come up here with that shit, man.
Ish, you agree with that point?
Yeah, Ish.
Yeah, Ish.
Ish, what'd you think of that last part?
You got to wait for the sun to go down for the night time.
Now you can see the sun always shining. You guys are the sun. I'm shining everybody. That's behind go down for the night time. Now you can see the sun always shining.
You guys are the sun.
I'm shining everybody.
That's behind you guys.
In this analogy, yes.
But he just said that the sun is black.
You're not gonna answer your question, right?
He just said the sun.
No, no, no, real shit.
You're the sun of the moon.
No, it's just real shit.
Five years ago,
how many people did you know
in the world of finance?
Five years later, right?
The brighter we get,
to use that analogy, the more it gives exposure to the of finance? Five years later, right, the brighter we get,
to use that analogy, the more it gives exposure
to the people who are doing positive things, right?
Like, growing up, there was like a couple things
you thought you could be.
You can ask these kids now,
there's about 10,000 things they think they could be
because they've seen people that look like them do it.
That's thanks to y'all.
But when I say we, it's not just me and Troy.
It's Ian, it's 19 Keys, it's everybody,
Ronnie Brown, it's everybody in this space that is all together.
And we might not speak to them every single day.
But they might not come to the interviews with you,
but they still important.
They important. They do come to the interviews.
We brought them all to the Breakfast Club.
We didn't have to do that.
We the only people that's ever done that.
I've never seen even rappers do that for the most part.
Like we probably went to the Breakfast Club
more than anybody ever in a two-year span, seven times.
We took 19...
Don't say that shit no more, I'll be in too.
We took...
You know what I'm saying?
You know what I'm saying?
By the way, to those who are concerned...
Fuck you, keep playing, bro.
I'm just...
Why do we keep comparing...
Why do we keep comparing a financial space...
We can't use that word up here.
They not comparable.
It's a good question because...
It's a horrible comparison.
It's not a horrible comparison because that's a reference that we use because that's our reference point in our community, right?
What else do we have?
Sports and entertainment.
But hip-hop is founded on something else.
Hip-hop is characterized as something else.
Hip-hop traditionally is based in competition.
Financial literacy is not.
That's not true, though. It's a lot of competition in financial literacy space. What's the first thing you said? Business is based in competition. Financial literacy is not. That's not true, though.
It's a lot of competition in financial literacy space.
What's the first thing you said?
Business is built on competition.
Business is more competition than music.
I said financial literacy.
I didn't say business.
Financial literacy is business.
I have a question for you niggas.
It is business.
Oh, wait, hold up.
Why is financial literacy not business?
Financial literacy is you trying to teach people how to be business-minded.
But we're, let's,
we're business.
We're not even,
but I'm,
whoa,
whoa, whoa,
whoa.
Look,
wording is important.
I know.
And financial literacy.
Financial literacy is a part of what we do.
True.
But we're not financial literacy guys.
We're businessmen.
True.
First and foremost,
we can have,
we got a trucking company.
We do different events.
We do merch.
We do all kinds of stuff.
Financial literacy is just a part of what we do.
So everybody in the space is kind of similar to that.
Financial literacy is just not like a holy thing where you're just going out and like,
nah, they're doing financial literacy, but they also got courses that they sell and they're
also doing events.
They also got merch.
They got different products, physical products.
So at the end of the day, and I always say this, we never apologize about making money.
Sure.
Like,
this is a for-profit
entity that we have.
We're not non-profit at all.
Sure.
We're not asking
for no donations.
It's not a charity.
It's a for-profit entity.
We exchange our services
for money.
Ladies and gentlemen.
That's business.
Sure,
we got them.
It's business.
Yo,
this guy with the
sound effects.
Yo,
this guy,
man,
this guy's crazy. This guy's crazy.
This guy's crazy.
Nah, but I just, financial literacy, I think the word has just kind of been.
Over you, oversaturated.
Yeah, it's oversaturated.
It's kind of corny almost at this point.
I think how you're saying it is just like in a literal sense, right?
Like financial literacy means educating people on the world of finance.
Exactly.
But it's bigger than that.
Who said it's not?
Now we took this off into something else.
I'm talking about when we keep comparing hip-hop
to financial literacy,
beef comes along in hip-hop.
If you are sincere about your financial literacy goals
and you really want to impart information
onto the rest of the world,
there's no place in that for beef.
Unless somebody brings beef to you.
Exactly.
But again...
There was beef when Malcolm X
and Martin Luther King
was doing civil rights.
Their messages were different.
Vastly different.
But I'm just saying,
there's beef inside of religion.
Vastly different messages.
But what I'm just saying
is that you would think
something like civil rights,
how could there be beef
as far as we just try to get people
to have voting rights?
But there are...
I don't like the way
you're going about this.
I don't like the way
you're going about this.
There's always going to be beef.
Unfortunately, like that's part of who we are.
Like, no, it's a competition no matter what there is.
It's always a competition.
I started with that.
You told me I was out of my fucking mind.
Everybody loves you and how could you hate me?
You my man.
That's that's what I'm saying.
I'm not just saying.
This is competition.
I can answer you.
There's always going to be competition.
Martin Luther King was telling people,
yo, if you get in your ass whipped, turn the other cheek.
Michael Mecks was saying if somebody's whipping your ass,
you hit them back.
Exactly.
Different approaches. So that was the inherent
beef within them. What I'm telling
you in the financial space is if I'm telling Corey
I want you to win and I'm telling Parks I want you to win
and Troy is saying I want
y'all to win too, it should really open
the door for beef. We keep
comparing it to hip-hop. But it's different approaches
even in the financial literacy. I agree with that statement.
We don't have to beef in it. No, I'm 100%
we don't have to beef in it.
But I don't want
to beef with anybody.
Anytime.
Only Joe wants us to beef.
that is a false narrative
that you spreading.
So let me interrupt.
Anytime you dealing
with money at this scale,
when is there not,
that's where y'all,
I get the ideology.
It don't have to be...
I understand that.
I'm talking about the patterns
that we have from people and history.
It is when you're dealing with money
at this level,
there's beef.
It don't have to be.
It doesn't have to be.
All right, we got that part.
Right.
We got that part.
But unfortunately,
there is human nature.
There's always envy, greed.
I think I can do this better than this person. Why is he here? Why is he speaking to this person? We got that part. But unfortunately, there is. Human nature. There's always envy, greed. Greed is the part of human nature.
I think I can do this better than this person.
Why is he here?
Why is he speaking to this person?
Why are they on Joe Button's show and not me?
Yeah, why he get to feel like Tupac walking through the casino with a silk shirt?
Real.
Because other niggas don't want to feel like that.
Of course.
Go get a silk shirt and go to the game and earn it.
You could do it.
He earned it.
And we're giving you the information to how to do it.
So it's a little bit different.
But I think it's not productive.
I think you're right.
I'm not,
I think you're 100% right.
I think that
it hasn't been productive
in hip hop
to be honest with you.
I don't feel like
beef is productive.
I don't think
that it's a productive thing.
It's counterproductive.
There's no business behind it.
It gets in the way of the money.
If you focus on some haters,
you can't focus
on your progress.
That's a fact.
Yeah.
We just spoke with Swizz, right?
And we was talking about
hip hop.
No, we were talking...
Shout out to Swizz.
Get up.
We were talking about hip hop.
I was going to say get up.
No, pick that up.
He was like,
yo, this is the evolution of it.
Like, what we doing here?
Because for years,
nobody had education.
True.
Right?
They're in the music business
and have no idea
what business is.
That's true. And so that breeds spaces to have conflict that leads to have when you're talking about business and people understand a bit they know like yo this is not this is not
gonna help the business right this is not gonna help us long term how do we work together right
so when we implore and we encourage people and give them information it's different i have a
question for y'all have you guys ever had to leave somebody behind?
Leave somebody? Yeah.
They left themselves behind.
No, no, no.
They left themselves behind.
No, no, no, man.
Yeah, they did to yourself.
Did to yourself.
How you leave yourself behind?
But when they look in the mirror,
do they say yourself?
We fucked up.
What's Rashad ready?
Rashad, stop.
He slid.
That gladiator shit
don't mean nothing to me.
Stop.
I like you.
His niggas all stop.
New Jack City shit. Stop it. Hold on. Let me finish don't mean nothing to me. He slicked. Stop. I like you. His niggas all... Stop, man.
Stop it.
No, I'm saying...
Hold on.
Let me finish the question.
What I'm saying is that
has anybody not been on the same level
or moved the way you guys wanted them to move
or you guys weren't on the same thinking pattern,
whatever, however I'm trying to word it,
that you had to leave behind.
We not fucking with that nigga next term.
Next time we doing it, we going...
It's over.
We going to move him out the little group
that we got on... Not little. We going to move him out the's over. We going to move them out the little group that we got,
not little,
we going to move them
out the Instagram group,
we going to move them
out the text,
we not fuck with them.
Have you ever had
to cut a nigga off
because they wasn't
on the same page
or they didn't do
what you guys thought
was feasible to the business?
You got to put people
in a position
where they can be successful.
This is the interesting
thing about success
and even Tyler Perry
said this to us, right?
We getting y'all out of here.
No, this is real shit.
You got to think about it.
This success shit is rare, right? So Tyler Perry said this to us, right? We're getting y'all out of here. No, this is real shit. You got to think about it. This success shit is rare, right?
So it's like a rare air, right?
If you bring somebody up to this air and they can't breathe, what's going to happen to them?
They're going to suffocate, right?
And so rather than saying, like, yo, you're cut off, we're just going to keep going, keep going.
And eventually they're going to be like, yo, this is not for me.
I shouldn't be here, right?
I can't survive up here.
You're actually going to be hurting them about trying to bring it with you so i think it's like yo yeah there's people
who we grew up with we're just gonna keep going keep going they was with us yo we're not cutting
you off but like at a certain point it's like how do i fit in how can i add value he said he said
to quote i remember the quote he said basically you spinning up so fast when you spinning up
they're gonna fall off yeah because they can't handle the spin.
So they're going to fall off organically.
The atmosphere is too high for them.
Yeah.
That's a fact.
These niggas, it's coming.
I've never met a bunch of niggas like, who the fuck are these niggas?
Where you at, these niggas?
It's the weekend.
It's the weekend.
These niggas sitting there talking this shit.
The sun is. Yeah. You got a lemon take to the sky.
Niggas, they're taking the sun out?
Yeah.
Behind the sun is the stars.
You niggas breathe the air in the hallway, god damn it.
These niggas are crazy.
The sun is blocking the stars.
Are you niggas the sun?
No, we're not the sun.
No, no, he said yes, we the sun.
Oh, you are the sun.
Yo, it's mad stars, but we are the sun.
I'll shine it on all the niggas behind y'all.
Fuck y'all talking about?
Did you help the old niggas that were that big?
I don't believe it.
I don't believe it.
I don't believe it.
I don't believe it.
I don't believe it.
I don't believe it. I don't believe it. I don't we the son. Oh, you are the son. Yo, it's mad stars.
I'll sign all the other niggas behind y'all.
We are the son.
Fuck y'all talking about.
Did you help the old niggas that did it before y'all?
I don't believe none of this shit.
I seen y'all when y'all did the Mo Money Mo Problems leather suits in front of the-
Get them niggas.
It was only y'all two.
Wait, wait, wait.

I'm going to do some research on that nigga.
Yeah, you got to do some research.
I'm going to get that child in here.
Troy, did Mel do a good job of anything?
Shit.
You said you was looking to her to jump in.
No, no.
I just wanted to, before you got us out of there,
I want to make sure that she got to express her feelings
about Ernie and Leisha, the mission that we've been on.
Oh, no.
I mean, I walked up to you guys.
I very rarely, when I'm outside, I hug the back.
I'm not a social butterfly
You know
But when I saw you guys
I had to walk over
What?
Sir what?
Come on Mel

For you guys to know that.
Thank you.
Appreciate that.
And also, I wanted to congratulate you.

You following them niggas?

Round of applause.
Come on, clap it up.
Clap it up.
Yes, sir.
He took some accountability for the near long shit.
He said, get off his dick.
He was wrong.
He put everybody through a hard time when he didn't have to, blah, blah, blah, blah,
but the bag is back and I got another job.
He could have some fun in Houston.
Oh, man.
Wow.
Park.
What?
It's a beautiful city.
It's a fun city.
Yeah.
Got a few onyxes.
Good food.
He's a good looking guy.
He should have fun out there.
And he's single now, right?

He's not with Nia
Doesn't look like he was
With the misters
Melissa why
Why did you just whisper
Why did you just whisper that part
Can you
I don't know
Anyway
Alright thoughts
Thoughts
I don't have any thoughts
Congratulations
We knew he would get another job.
Nice little young team that he could mold,
you know what I'm saying, in his way.
And basketball, too.
Oh, and basketball.
Oh, man, that was good.
Speaking of Houston or old Houston,
do y'all see this little clip going around
of James Harden allegedly smacking somebody?
No, I didn't see that.
I missed that. All right. We can't have fun with it, but it wasn't aacking somebody. I didn't see that. I missed that.
All right.
We can't have fun with it, but it wasn't a real smack.
And it was his homeboy, somebody that was in his team.
It looked like a little love tap.
The blogs are trying to make a thing out of it.
Yeah, exactly.
Lamar Jackson.
Man, round of applause for that one.
Come on, man.
Lamar Jackson.
Come on, man.
Let me hit the button.
I was wrong.
Let me hit the button. Get a real applause for my guy, man. Lamar Jackson. Come on, man. Let me hit the button. I was wrong. Let me hit the button.
Get a real applause
for my guy, man.
About time.
Congratulations,
Lamar Jackson,
his mother,
his family,
the Ravens.
You got it done.
Shout out to black quarterbacks.
I'm sick of saying
shout out to black quarterbacks.
Shout out to black quarterbacks.
They had a big weekend.
Yeah.
Jalen Hurts,
Lamar.
Is his contract bigger
than Jalen's? Yes. Yeah, because that's what I was reading. It's the biggest. Like ever? It's big weekend. Yeah. Jalen Hurts, Lamar. Is his contract bigger than Jalen's? Yes.
Yeah, because that's what I was reading. It's the biggest.
Like ever? It's the biggest. Ever.
Every year we're going to get a biggest ever.
They're going to keep resetting the market.
So congratulations
to Lamar and
Jalen. The full circle thing for me
as I was watching the draft with the
first two quarterbacks being black, taking off
the board, one and two. First three. First three quarterbacks. The one and two pick, I'm saying, were both black
quarterbacks. It has to be for the first time in history. And the full circle moment there,
they kept showing Will Levis sitting there in the green room not being drafted,
which got me to laughing at when they kept showing Mac Jones.
The white quarterbacks don't be looking swaggy when they back there longer
than they want to be.
Like, I will shout, Will's parents and siblings,
they tried to hold him down.
He looked cooler than I've ever seen somebody look,
but you know that niggas be tight back there.
But they did the same thing to Lamar Jackson.
They did.
Lamar Jackson, they showed every other clip of him sitting he didn't look happy about it at all
they also did the same thing to you guessed it jalen hurts so for jalen hurts and lamar jackson
to be the two quarterbacks to reset the market recently and we have two black quarterbacks
drafted it's just a good week to be
a quarterback and a black quarterback at that.
Congratulations to
Jalen Hurst, Lamar Jackson.
The Ravens have Mark...
And Anthony Richardson.
Zaire! Hey, Zaire!
What up, Zaire? I know he's happy about that.
Zaire, what up, boy?
He's thrilled. Yo! Hit me last night
talking about, yo, send me the We Got Em.
Send me the We Got Em. I need it. Yo. Hit me last night talking about, yo, send me the we got him. Send me the we got him.
I need him. I need him.
Friend of the show, part of the
show, brother of the show, Zaire.
I feel bad now because we
can't crack on him. The quarterback jokes was fun
cracking on him. We can't crack
on him no more. They got a young guy. They got
a young guy. They got their guy up there. Shout out to them.
The Ravens have Mark
Andrews, Odell, Zay Flowers, and Nelson Aguilar.
Mm-hmm.
I'm a lot higher on Nelson Aguilar than anybody else he's ever.
He's nice.
No, not me.
He's nice.
I like him.
He's nice.
That's a nice little, you know what I mean?
Congratulations to Lamar Jackson.
After enduring months of ridicule, we probably had an idea.
We had an idea that this would get done before the draft.
I did.
They're not stupid.
Same thing with that Aaron Rodgers trade.
Like the draft be the day.
Shout to him for holding his guns.
Yeah.
Betting on yourself.
Shout to him for holding his guns.
That was some ballsy shit.
And shout out to the Ravens for doing the right thing.
Which you kind of always felt that they would,
which is why how they went about it was tricky.
It was confusing because the Ravens are a well-ran organization.
Yes, they have not been particularly bad since they moved there.
At all.
Y'all not letting your MVP quarterback walk out the door.
You're not doing it.
You're just not doing it.
They got to play chicken.
Yeah.
I know that you have to do that, but that's my least favorite part of a negotiation.
Thanks.
I don't like it.
I know you have to do it, but why are you going to lowball me, get me low on my morale, feeling bad?
Now my lawyer come back with this, and your lawyer.
It's so tedious.
Just stop.
Just stop.
You know you want me.
I want to be here.
Let's get closer to where it needs to be.
Again, congratulations to all
life changing money
go ahead Lamar Jackson
go ahead
sheesh
the NFL draft
also was last night
it was
boy that shit
is long
and drawn out
my team had the 25th pick
I felt like I sat there
for two and a half hours
I love that shit
even though my team
didn't even have a pick
why y'all didn even have a pick.
Why y'all didn't have a pick?
From the Tom Brady tampering bullshit.
Got it.
The Giants got a corner.
Looks good. He looks good. Eagles
came up. Eagles and the Texans.
Fuck the Eagles.
They got the whole Georgia defense back there.
They not playing at all. I was hot. Well, not the whole Georgia defense back there. Them niggas not playing. They not playing at all.
I was hot.
Well, not the whole Georgia defense.
Oh, no defense.
I'm hot, son.
I ain't going to hold you.
They do it every year.
Bro, they goddamn near.
Well, Parks thinks he's the best.
I think he a top three pick in the draft.
Yeah.
Easily top three pick in the draft.
If he didn't have the misdemeanor drag race and shit happen, he would have been the first
pick. I hate it. Well, maybe not first
because quarterbacks go, but
fuck the Eagles.
Congratulations.
Yeah, dog. I was tight like number nine
and he got, oh man. The Texans
are coming up a little bit too.
That was a nice little double whammy right there.
CJ Stroud's going to be a good quarterback.
And then Will Anderson is nice.
It just gets you excited for football season to roll around.
That's it.
I'm watching tonight, too.
Yeah, the Texans get CJ Stroud and Will Anderson.
They move up for that trade back to back.
That's some ballsy shit.
Can't be mad at them.
I think they smoked it.
And all of the offseason shit been good so far.
Yeah, it has.
That's a smart move, though, because this draft isn't particularly deep in terms of previous drafts.
They said there's something like 15 blue chip players in this draft.
So they were at 12, I think.
They said, no, fuck that.
Let me get up here.
I'm going to get mine and get out of the way.
I know what I want.
I'm going to get it.
The Jets, I was focused on that pick because there was a big fight over the pick.
Yeah.
It looked like they wanted to trade that pick because there was a big fight over the pick. It looked like they wanted to trade that pick.
They moved back two slots, the Jets,
from 13 to 15 and they swapped
with the Packers. The Packers get 13.
The Packers
took an edge rusher.
I want to say I'm going off memory right now.
They took Van Ness.
Van Ness, a guy that
everybody seemed to like.
They spoke very highly of him, everybody.
He just is kind of young.
I think it was the only knock on Van Ness, but yeah.
And the Jets end up with linebacker Will McDonald
that they seem disappointed by.
He's nice.
That was too high by most people's big boards to draft him,
but he's nice.
He probably won't be much of a factor for a year or two, I would imagine, but he's talented. He's too high by most people's big boards to draft him, but he's nice. He probably won't be much of a factor for a year or two, I would imagine.
But he's talented.
He's super talented.
I think the Jets wanted somebody.
They wanted a lineman, offensive lineman.
They don't have a very good offensive lineman.
That's what I thought.
Still has jumped up to get that old lineman.
Yeah.
All the good old linemen, like I said, it's not a very deep draft.
13, 12, 13, something like that, I want to say.
Right before the Jets.
And I think that's why the Jets were so disappointed.
Somebody traded up.
We did.
We traded with New England.
And took the guy that I think they wanted, which was bad.
The left, I think that's the left guard for, or the left tackle.
Left tackle for the Cardinals that they picked up.
That big-ass boy.
That boy. Big-ass boy. That big-ass boy? Yeah. That boy.
Big-ass boy.
That big-ass boy.
Y'all seen him?
I don't know much about him.
He's a big boy.
But they took him at pick six, which is real early.
And when they put him on the screen, like, oh, yeah, nah, I want him to protect me, too.
Like six, seven, and your arms was stupid. Somebody else got one of them
long, lanky niggas that night.
I like the guy the commander's got.
The quarterback
had six pick sixes in college.
He's nice.
Go ahead, get that chase over to the Cowboys.
What do you think about the Cowboys?
I hate coming to you for sport, but what do you think?
Can you not vacuum the fun out of this?
How?
By being depressing about your team.
God, I'm not one of them niggas
that think my team is good.
That's what I'm doing.
That dude, Mozzie, right?
Mozzie Smith?
Is that his name?
He's nice.
I don't know too much about him.
I heard he amazing.
He's nice.
He's a monster DT.
Parsons seemed excited about him.
Bro, I ain't mad.
He's a big guy.
He's not like
an edge rusher
or he's not
a sack machine
that's just
going to clog
the middle.
Interchangeable pieces.
Oh yeah,
the run stopper guy.
The run stopper guy.
Monster.
Monster.
I'll take it.
I'm just glad
that Stefan Diggs
seems to be staying
in Buffalo.
Do all that.
I ain't like them rumors.
I ain't going to lie to you.
Stefan,
his brother coming to Dallas. Blah, blah, blah, blah, rumors. I ain't gonna lie to you. Stephon, his brother,
coming to Dallas,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And I found Stephon Diggs
in a grand.
That nigga is a dressing motherfucker.
That nigga's skin is smooth, huh?
Who's Stephon?
Yeah, I'm sure, dog.
I ain't wanna be around that nigga.
If he'd have started singing
to my girl, shit.
I'm sure I could deal with it.

Yo, I got 30 million.

Ice is not wrong,
but they don't know that.
Ice is not wrong in that.
They don't know anything.
They're on the other
side of the camera.
Please do, Joe. That's insulting. Just dismiss it to say, hey, you don't know anything on the other side of the camera that's insulting yeah just dismiss it to say hey you don't think that's not shit let me explain to
y'all uh as you uh as you get more experience in the media content space you just learn all
these different avenues that you can get a check and there's a lot of them live streaming is one
of them so yeah some people have in their contract hey live streaming is
exclusive to here or if you're trying to get an exclusive live streaming contract then you can't
just pop up on everybody's fucking live stream like that now it's a give and take with that
because the look is what they say in hip-hop the look the look the look the look you would do for
the look visibility the look so that's able You want to do it for the look, do it for the look. Visibility, the look, look, look, look, look. So that's on everybody to make their own decision.
But Ice is not wrong.
My kid can't eat the look.
That's all.
I say that all the time about the look.
That's not true, though.
My kid can't eat the look.
That's not true.
He can really.
That's not true.
He can really go at you.
But that's on you to decide which looks bring it back for you.
That's on you.
OK.
I respect that.
But the look.
That's my fight with Ian for a long time, too.
He run around looking for the,
oh, let's get up
to a great commercial opportunity.
I'm like, yeah, nigga.
It's weekend paid or what, nigga?
Oh, trust me,
it'll come back in other avenues.
Dog, niggas don't want to hear
that shit right now.
A weekend paid or not.
That's the other theory.
You seen that one going around?
Which one?
That we take secret ad dollars
to talk about shit.
Oh, God. Well, that one I like. I like that one going around? Which one? That we take secret ad dollars to talk about shit. Oh, God.
Well, that one I like.
I like that one a lot.
They told us.
Because they pretend to know everything else in the world.
But you can't quite know this one, so it's a guess.
They talk about these movies.
They talk about this.
Is it an ad?
Oh, my God, the sleepers are getting paid.
Wait, can you even not disclose when it's an ad?
I like all that. I like all that.
I like all that.
I do.
And I wasn't being dismissive and saying they don't know.
That's just the truth, though.
You're on the other side of the camera.
It's all guesses.
You're not physically in the room with us to know conversations,
to know what really happens.
That's the truth.
So that's why when I say they don't know,
they really do not know.
You're just sitting there guessing.
There's nothing wrong with it.
But when we say they don't know, Flip didn't know neither.
So we had to tell.
He was offended at first.
He can't show up.
He was hot.
No, not really.
But it's a business decision.
That's all.
Because I was with these companies before as well.
So I understand.
Oh, got it.
I just negotiate my contract different.
It's not going to work.
Flip, is it true?
Is it true?
Is it true?
Is it true?
Is it true?
It's not going to work. I made six figures with shot. It's a shot. It's all right.
It's not going to work. I made six figures with caffeine.
I negotiate my shit different.
I'm just telling you.
I didn't say nothing about caffeine.
I'm just saying I negotiate it different.
I see what you're attempting to do.
You guys cannot tell me.
Yeah, but high six or low six?
High six.
Are you crazy?
I'm Queens Flip.
You can't, guys can't.
That's why my shit got fucked up.
Now you're going to say it.
You can't tell me how I look at it because I stream often.
I'm going to say that.
You can't tell me where or where I cannot stream.
They do have those type of exclusive contracts.
Well, no.
Correct.
You have just been fortunate enough to get a carve out.
I understand.
Yeah, you're right.
I probably do.
Salute.
And you got to be able to ask for certain things to even get them.
I'm not saying Ice wouldn't be able to get a carve out.
Ice that nigga. You got to work for the carve out. But I hate. Let. Not saying Ice wouldn't be able to get a carve out. Ice that nigga.
You got to work for the carve out.
But I hate, let me just say this.
Say this real quick before we move on.
One last time.
Because my man don't want to do it,
that don't change that.
They try to divide us.
Yeah, that don't change that.
That's my man.
We just down.
They try to divide us every month.
Hey, yo, let me tell y'all something.
Since we said it.
And it's my fault.
I take full responsibility.
Thank you.
It's none of y'all's fault. The only thing I don't like about my brothers is that they get mad when I listen to you n y'all something. Since we sat. And it's my fault. I take full responsibility. Thank you. It's none of y'all's fault.
The only thing I don't like about my brothers
is that they get mad when I listen to you niggas out here.
You don't see me look at my brother in the eyes?
I'm so sorry.
When I listen to you niggas here,
because sometimes we on the break and I'm listening,
my brothers get mad.
Like, why you listening to them niggas?
That's the only thing I don't like about them niggas.
Because in my contract, they're not supposed to judge me.
I didn't sign your contract.
In my contract, I don't get judged.
But look.
My hands up, Karen.
I'm going to tell you.
Hey, Flip.
Keep it in the book.
Keep it in the book.
Keep it in the book.
I don't get mad at you.
Listen to them niggas.
You know what I get mad at?
What?
You become a sponge.
Okay.
Meaning like whatever they say, whatever the masses say, you soak that up and you come
in and become that.
You internalize and modify your behavior based on what they're saying
really? yes
why you don't think I modify my behavior based on
how I feel or if I watch something
and say well I shouldn't have did this at that time
I gotta learn my pockets why you think that
they don't influence me

Against the Rangers?
Yeah, because niggas was blowing my phone up.
It's Big Jersey.
It's Big Jersey, and niggas was blowing my phone up when the Devils was down 2-0.
Who was blowing your phone up over hockey?
Hockey's big, bro.
Yeah, it is.
I'm surprised.
And hockey's big in New York, for sure, especially when the New York teams are playing.
Yeah, it was hockey big.
I didn't know this.
I was like, well, what are you talking about?
Yeah, y'all down 2-0.
Well, now we up 3-2.
Hockey is nuts over here.
You know the devil's playing Newark.

That the Devils won more frequent.
I mean, more recently than the Rangers.
Wait, what?
That the Devils won more recently than the Rangers.
What year did the Devils win, man?
Won what?
03 and 2000.
Oh, no, no, no.
I wasn't trying to say the Rangers won.
I said they were in the Stanley Cup.
They lost.
But they were there.
And that was a big deal. New York was lit. It was going crazy in the Stanley Cup. They lost. But they were there. That was a big deal.
New York was lit. They was going crazy.
Yeah, New York was lit.
But we didn't win.
We didn't win.
You were seeing niggas that you didn't even think
watch hockey at the games.
I didn't know I lived across the street from a hockey bar
until the Rangers was there.
They were going crazy over there.
What?
I was like, oh, shit.
Yo, I wanted to ask Ice and maybe Flip.
What do y'all think about Young Thug posting the Gunna shit?
I saw that.
I mean, that's a message to me.
Twitter's celebrating saying that Gunna has beat the snitch allegations.
Yeah.
Everybody said, we waiting to see what Thug say about it.
That's the one who can tell you if he feel you
know this was you know snitching not snitching we wait everybody said it was waiting to see what
thug feel about it so if a thug to post his his uh music shit what do you think everything's all
good y'all could you could you explain to the listeners what do you post young thug posted a
muse a link to gunner's music on his Instagram page.
That was all he's done.
Okay.
That's it.
Ice is saying everything that he just said.
Yo, we was waiting to see what Thug had to say.
Now Thug posted.
I ain't giving a shit.
I'm still going to listen to the music.
I'm talking about the rest of those who were saying like he was in limbo of cancel. I was saying let's see what Thug has to say.
And not like that. I don't have a horse in this race. I ain't no let's see what Thug has to say. And not like that, right?
I don't have a horse in this race.
I ain't no street nigga.
But it's nice to know.
But I was saying,
let's see what Thug has to say.
Thug posting this link,
don't tell me what Thug has to say.
It don't.
But he's saying something.
I don't know if Thug posted this link.
Yeah, somebody else did it.
I don't know if somebody else did it.
It's a fact.
I also don't know,
like Thug behind the wall right now could just be
really trying to get every coin owed to him
gonna steal his artist.
Whether I morally agree with what you did or not,
I need to get this money and I'm posting
the fucking link. Whoever buy it, you buy
it, but that's what I'm on right now.
I only say I don't know what
I don't know.
All I know is everybody who was sitting there saying
we waiting, we waiting, we waiting.
I saw the reaction when they saw the link, say, all right.
Oh, you're talking about the living room detectives?
Yeah.
Living room detectives, the living room gang members.
That's what I'm talking about.
The living room gangsters, living room street niggas,
living room shooters, living room stick up kids,
living room muggers, living room UFC fighters, y'all niggas.
The mousepad mobsters, the keyboard gangsters.
There you go, mousepad mobsters. I like cases. There you go. Mouse pad mobsters.
I like that.
I like that.
Mouse pad mobsters.
I stole that from Star.
I did.
But just steal it then.
Don't tell them where you stole it from.
Damn to come see you.
Damn to come say, yo, that's my shit.
You're scared though.
Don't worry about it.
Part of the show.
This sounds serious.
I only read one sentence.
So I'll read it to y'all in real time.
This is from a gentleman named Q Butter.
Hey, Q Butter.
What's up, Q? Q Butter says,
is there more I can do?
Question mark.
I am currently out on bail looking at
two felonies for shooting.
Self-defense, first-time offender.
My older sister is currently serving
six years for trafficking.
Before she went in,
she was acting a little naive that she was going to do time. So my pops is on the fence with her,
sometimes doesn't even answer her calls. And he's starting to get a little short with me
because it's been almost a year and there's no news, no date no nothing in February finished paying my lawyer
in full 15k I've been keeping pops updated knowing this every time we talk he gets upset
when there's no news basically I'm nonchalant um I'm nonchalant basically I'm nonchalant like
shit sweet in his eyes but really I'm just trying not to stress out over stuff that's out of my hands.
Is he right? Should I be at should I be at the lawyer's office or calling him often asking for updates and strategy to tackle the case?
Or am I right? Breathe easy until the information comes.
P.S. Special thanks to Ice
for being decent enough
to say on air
that he'll take a listen
to my music.
Much appreciated.
Well, I'm going to listen too
now that I know
your whole family in jail, nigga.
I got, I got.
Yeah, he sent it to me.
I'm going to check it out.
All right.
What do we think about this?
I agree with him.
Why would I be sitting at home stressing out?
If I got to go in, I got to go in.
If I don't, I don't.
And to be honest, every day that you ain't get a court date yet is another day you're on the streets free.
True.
So I'm not.
You know what I mean?
I'll postpone that shit to the next six years.
I wouldn't give a fuck.
But they're not talking about him.
They're talking about his sister.
No, his sister already locked up.
Yeah. Him. He's talking about his father. but then I told him about him they told my sister no his sister already locked up yeah
him
he's talking about
his father
I feel like the basic
question was
should he
just like you said
enjoy life
and let it happen
or should I be
kicking down the door
at the lawyer's office
every day
no
I'm gonna sit there
I don't want my lawyer
going in there
raising no flat
no fuss
no nothing
yo my guy
need a date
no I don't
and then they look up
and say oh shit
you know what
we meant to file this and damn alright so if he's talking about him no fuss, no nothing. Yo, my guy need to date. No, I don't. And then they look up and say, oh, shit, you know what?
We meant to file this,
and damn, I am.
All right, so if he's talking about him,
which I can see what y'all saying,
then I'm with y'all.
Get as much box as you can, Q Butter.
If he talking about him, I wouldn't want to keep my mind on that,
especially when I've paid somebody
and that's their job.
No news sometimes is good news.
It can get...
And every day out here,
hopefully you win your case.
Hopefully.
You know what I'm saying?
They don't have to go in, but yeah.
Yeah, they probably still trying to gather information.
They don't have enough information.
There's a lot of shit that come with that.
All of that.
Okay.
Well, I hope we were able to help.
Yeah, salute.
Salute.
And good luck with everything, with your case, with your sister's case.
With the music. And with the music and just with your dad's understanding of things.
True. Like good luck with all of it.
Freeze, you got his music? Yeah, I didn't get to listen to it. I just saw it yesterday.

When this work, niggas don't never mention my name
Tell them send the money, nigga, fuck the fame
Bust out the panic, I don't wanna play Dripped in the Zyla, that's how it came
Rich crip, but I still catch a stain These six shits ain't shit change
Still hit licks

Shine my nigga, shine my nigga
The voice in my head is telling me shine
Shine my nigga
Link dragging on the floor
Ignoring whores like how I'ma ring your bell with money knocking on the door
Fuck rap, this is opera with a score
Chopping like Baraka down the blocker with my boy
Eyes on money, eyes on me
Hands in a circle, squad on three
Might be back in a couple weeks
Finna take my bitch to Belize
If we shot up Tiger, she'd never leave
Since the pockets got puffy,
they try and seize.
I told him no biggie,
lift up the sleeve.
Murder, murder,
and make dollars sign E.
But the voice in my head
is telling me shine.
Shine, my nigga.
Shine, my nigga.
It's Shine by Markass
and Brick is King.
I fuck with that.
I don't usually, you know, that don't really be my bag, but I like that.
It's a little four-pack.
It's got some shit on there, man.
I fuck with them.
Ish?
What do we got, Ish?
Leon Thomas, the song is called Crash and Burn.
All right. Alright. With no recollection Way too few regrets to even mention Cali been too crowded
I think I should move
Thinking life in Mississippi could be smooth
All these bitches wanna do
Is post a hashtag
Same old shit, different handbag
I might get high off the 405
Crash and burn, just to feel something
If I could die, just to feel alive If I could die just to feel alive
To live in the sky, I can't do nothing
Crash and burn
Crash and burn
Crash and burn Crash and burn, crash and burn
I hate I had to dump her, she was one of my favorites
Tried to thug it out but she kept testing my patience, oh
Send her back to the city while cooking you just take your blessings and go
Why'd you make me have to leave you alone?
Why you always gotta run to your phone?
You're 23 and acting your age, huh?
Ironic how you the bad vibes and you sage, huh?
Wish I couldn't have you here with me
But you're a liability, liability I try listening to me
Cause you're a liability, liability
I might get high off the floor
If I crash and burn
Just to feel something
If I could die
That's Leon Thomas, Crash and Burn.
I really like Leon Thomas.
A vibe.
Super vibe. All right. Leon Thomas, Crash and Burn. I like Leon Thomas. A Vibe. Super Vibe.
All right.

Defeating Daisy with her mom.
And I'm not talking about her.
Hey, my girl recently, she slowed down.
And we drop a lot of content
So
She slowed down
With catching everything
She made sure to catch that last one
She listened to that whole thing
She was cleaning the house with it
It was on the TV
Had whatever Mel said
About group trips
And I'm gonna be there
Ain't work did it
My baby was listening
And my baby don't play
Oh shit
Oh your baby don't play
Uh uh
Wow
But you don't never come home And share Come Oh, your baby don't play? Mm-mm. Wow.
But you don't never come home and share with us that you get ridiculed for jokes.
Wait, what does that mean?
I don't even know what he's trying to say right now. You know what he's trying to say?
I don't know what he's trying to say.
Oh, he's trying to say, oh.
But Flip is right.
You don't share with us, even behind the scenes, that, yo, stop that.
We'll stop, nigga.
If you tell me.
The second I see you not stand next to Mel
for a group pic,
I'm going to stop.
But I keep...
I'm not joking around.
I keep...
No, no.
This is my problem.
I've known Ish for so long,
I've seen him be
a real stand-up nigga
on so many different occasions
that I assume Alpha Male
has everything under control,
so I play around.
I do.
I do.
But I assume Alpha Male
has everything.
Alpha Al has everything under control. I don around I do I do but I assume alpha male has everything alpha
al that's everything under control I don't pretend to be alpha this Scorpio
bitches nuts and I'm treated I treated that well so the other day before your
show and then I'll play some music and we'll leave I was no we won't leave we'll
do sure sure well I'll do paint I'll do patreon we'll fucking laugh
some more but the other day and this is gonna end with a question to y'all the other day I
wake up late I got to the show late you remember I woke up late but that's really because I woke
up early I woke up at 3 30 in the morning 4 in the morning was up chilling lamp and having a
blast till about 8 and I was like I should probably lay it back down for a little
bit. So I lay back down, fall asleep at 8.30, I wake up late, like after 11. I was supposed to
be here at 10.45. The people in my life know I don't play about work. I don't miss work. I ain't
late for work, none of that. So I woke up to 99 texts. Corey, keep inb, Ian,
you.
But the one person that was like adamant about getting in touch with me and where am I?
It's my baby.
It's my girl.
So her texts sounded like I died.
Yo,
you ain't never leaving.
Why are you?
I'm getting worried about you.
Hit me right now.
All of that shit.
Right?
So I confront it. Has'm getting worried about you. Hit me right now. It was all that shit, right? So I confront it.
Has to be an accountability system.
Yo, I should be able to wake up late for work.
Like, I should be able to go back to sleep,
wake up a little late,
and get there without the whole world panicking.
Okay.
Know what she said?
I know you don't be late for work
and I didn't want the killer to get away.
That's heavy.
It sounded like it makes sense.
So it stumped me for a second.
And then I had to think.
Because when girls say stupid shit, I'd be having to think.
Because they got counters to the stupid shit that they say.
So then I said, I'm only 20 minutes late.
I was 20 minutes late from work.
You thought that the killer, you thought that a nigga, if somebody's missing, they don't get longer than 20 minutes. Like even if you call the cops, they say, yo, nigga, 75 hours of the missing person.
So then I wanted to come and ask y'all, since you said that stupid shit.
How long can you get missing before people that care and love you think that there's a real problem?
What is our real nigga time frame of that?
My girl is nuts,
so that was just for entertainment purposes.
But what's the real version of that?
I have almost damn near a routine.
I speak to my moms every morning.
Same, same.
If the phone call comes to me
and I don't answer,
okay, cool.
Maybe a text will come. But after after let's say it's 12 one
o'clock in the morning like it's been times where I went out the night before and I was
smack yeah you try I'm trying to sleep this shit off all of that but because it's out of the norm
yeah that's what it was they think something's wrong that you immediately go to panic mode well
that's their way of hating because they know we was turning up with bitches, yo.
Now they on time.
Since I've been here, you know, you've been on time all the time.
So that's why.
Yeah, once it's out the door.
But I was like, wait, what's going on?
Ian was, I said, nigga, let's start, nigga.
Ian was like, hold on.
I want to wait.
Ian said, I want to wait.
Oh, damn.
He's so concerned.
Let's start.
Let's start.
Let's start.
He didn't want to start.
He was like,
fuck it, he ain't here.
Fuck it.
Yeah.
Show him what's going on.
I was happy he was okay,
but at one time we got worried.
We were like,
I said, what the nigga fell down the stairs?
It's some crazy shit.
We checking citizens.
We checking mad shit.
You was worried a little bit.
Get the fuck out of here.
I hate niggas that come home
That act like that
I wasn't worried
Yeah, I'm pretty, but I'm low, girl
The loud got me moving slow, boy
Ayo, Tweety, where the hoes, boy
And, man, we love you
Ayo, Keys, where the hoes, though
That other nigga, he a bozo
It's the man, you don't know
We got liquor by the boat
Yo, man, hope y'all enjoyed this show
As much as we've enjoyed delivering it to you
Keep us in your prayers
Lord knows we need to be there
Until the next time
Cause there you go
We bid you adieu, farewell
Adios, arrivederci, hasta la vista
So long, goodbye, au revoir
Remember, life is a series of moments and moments pass
So let's make, ooh, that one, that bass line come on
You just keep on running on your hungry shit
Ignore that hate, ignore the fake
Remember, life is a series of moments
We gon' get a honey clip
And moments pass, so let's make this one last
As if it's all that we have
Y'all hold it down, man
Till the next time
Yo, Eli, why they texting me?
And lastly, the baddies are insecure, they're stagnant
Women wanna travel in the closed mind, and women want you to teach them things
Like, we ain't in these streets more than sex with me
What else?
But that shit chick, then why she texting me?
What else? Why she keep calling my phone speaking sexually every time I'm out why she
stressed you call the Stephanie I call a heaven
it was at that moment right there the bitches be like
when you try to you make me call Dyke bitches talking out they jaws
Next minute calling for the law
