Starting point is 00:15:54 Like really, really, really, really happy. And then this feeling of foreboding fear popped up. Do you guys ever feel like that? Like you're so happy, but you're like, when's the other shoe gonna drop kind of thing? Forgoing the fear? For boating. Okay, ignore that part. Do you guys ever feel that? Well, I can't swim, so I got
Starting point is 00:16:17 a fear for boating too. You are good. I can't swim? You are good. I don't get them votes That was rapper brand right there That was That was really good That was good
Starting point is 00:16:33 You might still got it He might You were definitely missing From Nelly's comments You were definitely missing From Nelly's comments We'll get to that But anyways
Starting point is 00:16:43 So answer my question Do you guys feel that? Foreboding fear, no. No, like. I get what you're saying. You feel like you're happy and then you're just like, do you feel like fear right after that? Because you're afraid that something's going to happen to mess it up. That you can't live with the sense of happiness for a long time.
Starting point is 00:17:02 No, I think that's traumatic or something. Yeah, it sounds like trauma. Maybe, shit, it might be a fucking trauma response, totally I think that's how you feel. Traumatic or something. Yeah, it sounds like trauma. Maybe, shit, it might be a fucking trauma response, totally. I understand what you're saying. I wondered if it was maybe more of a girl thing.
Starting point is 00:17:10 I'm certain I've experienced that before. It's just not coming to me right now. Shit, I think I might experience that a lot. Like shit start rolling, rolling,
Starting point is 00:17:18 and then something seems to just come and interrupt and mess up that moment. I can't just sit and live in that. I experienced it so much that, I mean, I guess part of the reason I don't feel like that moment. I can't just sit and live in that. I experienced it so much that I mean, I guess part of the reason
Starting point is 00:17:27 I don't feel like that is because I just expect the worst. Yeah, I mean. Like, I try to place my expectations where they should be. Managing expectations. Yeah. So when life throws me a nice one over the place, like, hey!
Starting point is 00:17:44 We lit, but any other time, like, hey, we lit. But any other time, yeah, I expect for. Foul ball. No, I just do the opposite. Like, been through some shit. So when a good time come or something good happen, I'm going to appreciate this right now. I ain't thinking about the other shoe to drop. I know what just happened before.
Starting point is 00:17:59 So I'm happy to be in this moment. Man, I done heard, let me take this to the board 90 times. That's normally where it goes awry for me. Once a nigga tell me you got to take it to the board. Yeah, because then they could come back and be like, listen. No phone call back? No, I pulled for you, but, you know, God blame it on somebody else.
Starting point is 00:18:20 Some of these companies, different size boards. Like, what are you saying? You got to run this up to how many people? And they go, all of them don't like me. You ain't going to tell me you got to run this up to 50 people and they're going to hit the yes on Joe. You go through that enough,
Starting point is 00:18:36 you'll just chill. As long as you hear it, you'll be like, ah. Chill out. You'll just chill out. If it come, hey, salute. But I think you're going to be amazing I think you've been amazing you've had you've had such a year
Starting point is 00:18:49 such a run like I don't want to get mushy but it's okay I don't mind from where you started and just our conversations
Starting point is 00:19:00 that we had leading into this thing and to see where you are right now. Yeah, it's beautiful. Thank you. It's beautiful. I'm happy for you.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Thank you. You are annoying. Hey, I wouldn't be me if I wasn't. I want to remind you that don't think it's all roaches and peaches and cream. Nope, not at all. Got some pits in there. But I'm going to be sad that you're gone.
Starting point is 00:19:22 I think I speak for all of us except for one. We're going to be sad that you're gone. I think I speak for all of us except for one. We're going to be sad that you're gone. We're going to be sad. Honestly. For real. I speak for everybody except for a nigga with his own teacup. I speak for the rest of the gang. That's all I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:19:39 If anybody else has any kind words they'd like to start with for our sister Mel, then please. I just wanted to ask, I know we joke and say Collins and all, but what changed? Something changed. Because we all notice it. The fans notice it. I got an old new Collins theory, by the way. Oh, really? Oh, please.
Starting point is 00:19:56 But what changed, though? It felt like towards the end of the year, going into the top of the year, you just had a little switch. I just kind of, things just kind of started coming together. That's it. That's really it. Is that a comfortability thing? Yeah, a little bit. Found a groove.
Starting point is 00:20:14 But then also, like, I started to feel, like, kind of like an embarrassment of riches kind of things. Like, in terms of, like, opportunities, in terms of like being like loved on by like my community and stuff like that. So it's just- Come on, make it. Just don't. Don't. That's it.
Starting point is 00:20:31 Yeah, don't. Loved on by my community. You're doing great. Huh? And, and you, and yes, but you- Wait, what? What could we see? I never know what that couch is like.
Starting point is 00:20:44 What are they laughing at? And they never say it. No, they don't. Go ahead. No, I think Ice... Well, I can't speak for Ice Park. Yeah, yeah. You know, she opened the door with the love
Starting point is 00:20:54 done by the community. So I think they can start, you know. But it's cool. Please don't let me stop you. I'm saying, on top of what you're saying, I feel like you spoke this you spoke this to existence you put this in your mind
Starting point is 00:21:09 you plant this you set up for a year and a half and now you're reaping the fruit to your hard work that too it's really fascinating to see that happen that's the end of the mail segment yeah okay not too much on mail.
Starting point is 00:21:25 Thank you, Park. Big bang! Hey! Okay, let's pass the ball. How's everybody feeling? Great. What do y'all want to get to? Where do y'all want to go?
Starting point is 00:21:40 Ain't but so much music dropped. I think I've said enough about music in the last two parts. I know that. They clipping me up for any damn thing out there. Yeah, they sure are. Yeah, they are. A lot of niggas are agreeing, though. But you said some dope Ransom just dropped.
Starting point is 00:21:55 Yeah, Ransom and Fraud dropped. Ransom and Fraud dropped. Dope project. I listened to it once, so I don't have no deep dive. But it sounded great. I haven't heard it yet. I bought it. I plan on listening to it it's a long weekend
Starting point is 00:22:06 shout out to Ram Big Jersey that's my man love him to death couldn't be happier for him it is a problem me being happy for people depending on what we talk about
Starting point is 00:22:13 I like it this new artist just dropped too blonde hair girl oh that's how oh yeah that girl yeah
Starting point is 00:22:23 okay I was trying to I was trying to be funny but Ariana Grande just oh that's hilarious that's how, oh. Yeah, that girl, yeah. Okay. I was trying to be funny, but Ariana Grande just. Oh, that's hilarious. That's what I thought you meant. She remixed her look. I don't know who this person is now. I don't know, but salutes to her. But she just dropped, so.
Starting point is 00:22:38 She did. I listened to that once as well. It was. It was whack. It was whack. It was... It was whack. We can say it. It was whack. It's missing some seasoning. Well, she's missing some seasoning. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:55 No, but she used to have seasoning in the music a little bit more. The seasoning is gone. Victoria Monet is on doing her own thing. That's the problem. And it's missing. You can hear it's missing. That's the problem with the Ariana Grande project. Yeah. That's the problem. And it's missing. You can hear it's missing. That's the problem with the Ariana Grande project. It's all Max Martin.
Starting point is 00:23:07 Who's him? I hit the little sample spin button on a preview song. And I fuck with some of Ariana Grande albums. Me too. So when Kino Doherty told me this was dropping, I was excited with her. told me this was dropping I was excited with her but it sound like just great great great poppy poppy yeah white white pop song very nice it's not that other shit that she give me when she hop on the hip-hop sound and shit and go crazy
Starting point is 00:23:37 I love that but it's already Monet is doing on there could it be I'm trying to get the fuck away from that that's what it seems like to me no I think Victoria Monet left yeah and I think it's been seen fuck away from that? That's what it seems like to me. No, I think Victoria Monet left. No, but I'm just saying. I think it's that. We've seen a couple of them where I got what I needed out of hip hop. I don't get that. I've never seen an Ariana Grande album where she didn't do that at least three times. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:57 I just feel like the only reason why I think that is because I'm just watching the look change. Yeah, her look is like. I'm watching her look change, even just going to the deep blonde look. Well, she turning white again. She turning white again. So I'm leaning more towards that being. She gave y'all the grande.
Starting point is 00:24:11 She tried to give y'all a little bit of Shakira with a Whitney voice early. She went to the tan in salon. She was dark. She fucked a few niggas. Come on, man. I'm just saying
Starting point is 00:24:20 that's giving me more... And now it's time for them to be white again. Didn't we just... So all I sound like the music should show that. I just said Miley did the same shit. Didn't I say Miley went white again, right?
Starting point is 00:24:27 Who? Miley Cyrus. Miley Cyrus. Yes. She took the Jordans off. They all take the Jordans off. Well, her white be a little bit more fire. Her white is always fire.
Starting point is 00:24:36 Wait, who got the better white? Miley. Miley, for sure. By far. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I'm not...
Starting point is 00:24:42 All right. No pushback from me Miley's spicy y'all wanna fuck Miley Cyrus no
Starting point is 00:24:49 I mean alright I mean I'm not y'all said that too quick I said that really fast
Starting point is 00:24:55 let me think for a second hold up carry the one you just showed me the picture
Starting point is 00:25:02 of them A.I. grandmas and said you would hit one so we know that you ain? You just showed me the picture of them AI grandmas and said you would hit one. So we know the one on the left. That you ain't kicking Miley Cyrus out of bed.
Starting point is 00:25:09 What are you talking about, yo? Yo, Ice did go crazy over the AI grandmas. All I said was if I speak, I didn't go crazy. That was enough. I didn't speak. That was enough. No comment is a comment. Yeah, that's all.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Ish. AI grandmas would have got flipped, though. Nah. Miley ain't necessarily my oh we're talking about the grandmas I'm not on them
Starting point is 00:25:28 neither I ain't showing me I was like talking about the Ariana album I know they be talking about popping
Starting point is 00:25:34 Miley Cyrus I'm good oh I don't have nothing else so don't look at don't hey that shit y'all do
Starting point is 00:25:42 don't do it I ain't I'm done I'm done. I'm done with Ariana Grande. Yeah. I gave you what I had. I came off the bench, quality eight minutes.
Starting point is 00:25:56 Got some rebounds. Yeah, I did it. I kept the lead that we had, and that's my time. Sub me out. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I mean, since we are talking about music, did y'all see that Wayne has now been added to Drake's tour? No, I didn't see that.
Starting point is 00:26:12 I saw that. Yeah. So originally, it was after Drake's tour finished, he went back and said he was going to hit the dates that they missed originally. They called it the Biggest of What tour. It was him and J. Cole. I don't know what happened Jake was not on that tour no more oh really it just calmly just happened damn
Starting point is 00:26:30 I missed I missed there was no one else but it became Drake and Dirk he well he added Dirk and then the next announcement was he had a Wayne so now was Drake Dirk and Wayne finishing out the rest of the tour. They've announced new dates. Like before, it was just the dates he originally missed, the South, some of the Midwest. Now they got New York, Jersey, Philly. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:26:54 It's a regular tour again. Damn bad tour. That's not bad at all. Because the Cole and Drake, or the Cole and, yeah, Cole and Drake was supposed to be kind of like smaller markets, wasn't it? Yeah. It was the ones that he missed originally.
Starting point is 00:27:03 Got it. You know how they say, oh, we missed it, we'll make this date up later on? He was actually making those dates up. Okay. I wish I could theorize
Starting point is 00:27:09 to why J. Cole ain't a part of it no more, but I think it's going to be messy if I do it, so I'm going to leave it alone. You do messy up here. I mean, that's true. That's true.
Starting point is 00:27:16 Make it a little mess. Even with this announcement, this sounds dope. I'm just more interested to find out why J. Cole was no longer a part of this. It seems like J. Cole's rolling some shit out,
Starting point is 00:27:24 so that could be part of it. Well, that could be it, yeah. But if you want to get messy, please. Oh was no longer part of this. It seems like J. Cole is rolling some shit out so that could be but if you want to get messy please. Oh go ahead. I don't know maybe just the crowd response might have been
Starting point is 00:27:32 lackluster. I don't know maybe that they just figured out they just don't blend as a touring act together on stage maybe.
Starting point is 00:27:40 I don't know maybe the crowds just didn't connect on both levels. What's your give me your ex name. Huh? What name on x of course your socials oh oh Emanie Music there you go give it up all right I'm just saying I'm just saying maybe maybe I think it was something I don't think it was that okay I think it was he was contracted or whatever they agreed upon was
Starting point is 00:28:04 just for those to make up those small market dates. And I did what, I helped you out on these dates. I'm off. Okay. Like, he's announced his festival. You know, Cole's coming with something. So, he's probably getting ready to roll out his own thing anyway. That's what I was going to say.
Starting point is 00:28:17 Cole got shit going on, man. And the Dreamville shit is going on. Oh, that's right. So, the tour might not be the most opportune time in which to release that shit alright cool but again adding Wayne in Dirt is enough for me
Starting point is 00:28:31 I'm in there alright 4 Bats Remix featuring Drake and y'all asked for it The streets asked for it You got it Lot of commotion out there
Starting point is 00:28:54 Let me just get to it Come on I'm coming slow by 8pm What did I do to deserve you? Don't even know what I did Been praying on it since a kid I guess it's just luck if you say so How you get all of that body and face though?
Starting point is 00:29:23 What kind of water they serving in Clay Cove It's not DNA hoe Ready to pop out but we gotta lay low I really gotta calm down Before I end up in jeopardy just like the game show Broke ski my twin that's my bestie He love me said I got a blessing I swear he's gassing me up
Starting point is 00:29:44 There's no way in hell I see you passing me up What y'all think so far? What y'all think so far? Bye So far Don't know why girl It was on the tip of my tongue
Starting point is 00:29:58 Yeah Found someone I'm falling for Alright You hit me back, we're talking more now The bodies that you called before They don't make me mad or insecure I'm good A thousand on your fucking hair Two hundred on your fucking hair. 200 on your fucking nail.
Starting point is 00:30:28 I'm whelmed. There's a minute left. I don't want to play the whole thing. But I think you get the gist of it by now. I absolutely love the 4Bats record. I was looking forward to the Drake remix. I'm not mad at it. I'm whelmed.
Starting point is 00:30:43 Anytime they do that beat switch with the 40 underwater shit and he start going, I like that. And this song was short. Yeah, it was. The original song was two minutes long. This is three and change.
Starting point is 00:30:56 So I enjoy it just on the strength of that. A slap that I liked is longer with a different vibe at the end. I would have liked to hear him on the original bop though. He should have gave him at least a couple bars on the original bop and then
Starting point is 00:31:13 switched it. No, go ahead. I think lyrically it was fire. It started to bore you after a little while but all the lyrics was crazy. But if he would've did something else in there
Starting point is 00:31:27 like Tempo change? Yeah, something. You should be fucking about it. I ain't even get bored by it. The lyrics was crazy
Starting point is 00:31:36 but it just started rocking you to sleep. On the second listen it started rocking you to sleep. He should've did a little bit of play. I don't know. Somewhere in there.
Starting point is 00:31:44 I feel like he could've I feel like I didn't need that long of a verse from play. I don't know. Somewhere in there. I feel like he could have, I feel like I didn't need that long of a verse from him. I felt like at a certain point, I would have been fine with him cutting it and would have been happy with the song as it was. I don't think I needed an extra minute. You said it was one awful extra minute. I didn't need an extra minute more of anything else.
Starting point is 00:32:00 I think at a certain point, maybe at the 16th bar, I would have been good. Okay. And just. Big words? I'm whelmed it was cool it was it was not you said just whelmed I'm not overwhelmed I'm not underwhelmed I'm just whelmed it was cool it was cool it was there I've never heard nobody say that I'm looking at the thesaurus to see if that was a good one. No, that's a Parxism. Oh, okay. I'm whelmed. I'm whelmed.
Starting point is 00:32:26 I like it. Yeah, I like this shit. I like the fact that he rode the beat, Paul, and just kept that flow going. Like you said, lyrics was on point. I don't have nothing bad to say about it. I'm not mad when you ride it, Paul, again. Oh, you good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:41 I caught it. I caught it. I caught it. I caught it. But I'm not mad at that as long as the shit sound good. Like,
Starting point is 00:32:48 people do that and then be like, all right, this shit is kind of trash now. I didn't get none of that from this. That was quintessential Drake. Drake ain't never
Starting point is 00:32:54 going to sound bad on that. Drake ain't never going to sound bad. Yeah. It can get a little drawn out though. He can sound bad. He can sound bad. He can sound bad.
Starting point is 00:33:07 I've heard him sound bad. I've been at the function when girls are celebrating their birthday day and out of nowhere, it's your fucking birthday. Come on. I'm like, oh. It was some other birthday song I was supposed to play. Girl. It's your fucking birthday.
Starting point is 00:33:27 Stand up, wrap your set. You got all your girlfriends with you. It's your fucking birthday. No, never got to hear that one again. I've never been so happy for a smoke break. Good. That's what I grab. Marco, I'm out. In the hookah bar, I'm happy for a smoke break. Good. That's what I grabbed. In the hookah bar.

Starting point is 00:34:18 Why do we shame people for like being. Being smart and shit. Well, is that being smart? Well, there's smart. There's educated. there's intelligent. There's a few of these. They're not the same. Because I know a lot of people that use big words.
Starting point is 00:34:33 They don't know shit what the fuck they talking about. There's a very big difference between being well-spoken and smart. You know what I'm saying? Some people be articulate, but they don't necessarily be smart. All right, it's her last day. I'm not your man, though. I ain't talking about you. necessarily be smart. It's her last day.

Starting point is 00:40:39 I've done that as well. Listen, I like Posh Joe. That's far. I like Rich Joe. I like Posh Joe better than Posh Bitch. That's a true. 16 plus. Is that? In a snowstorm too?
Starting point is 00:40:52 Here come truck driving, man. No, I'm just saying. I drove from here. Mexico. We drove together from fucking Dallas to LA. We've taken all of the drives. And when I was broke, all my bucket list was to take that same cross-country drive
Starting point is 00:41:07 and stop at some of the lit spots and spend the night and just make it a thing like the white people do in those shits. What's the name? Winnebago. That's kind of like what we did,
Starting point is 00:41:16 but we didn't have the Winnebago. No, no, no. We had a Suburban. We had a Tahoe bagel. And that's why Corey's my man, though. Because every time he stopped that little Suburban, he pulled up next to the flyest Winnebago in the world. Some of them shits I was asking the white people,
Starting point is 00:41:34 hey, let me see inside of there. Oh, that's fancy. We got tours. I met families. Some of them knew me. Oh, shit, what are you doing out here? Thugging it. Nah, that Winnebago shit wasn't bad.
Starting point is 00:41:47 It was a way to do it. But anyway, we're off on a tangent. Posh bitch. And you tried to hit me. You tried to touch me when you laughed. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You did the extendo. You grabbed me and laughed.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Yeah, you did that thing. That's a disarmament. Did y'all hear what Taraji had to say about black people and laughing and running away as they laugh? Yes. Yes. Well, guess who's still going to play it? I didn't hear it. Oh, good.
Starting point is 00:42:15 Here. We run away when we laugh because we weren't allowed to laugh on those plantations. This is stuff that lives in us, y'all. This ain't nothing new, y'all. That's why y'all want, what This is stuff that lives in us, y'all. Just saying nothing new, y'all, that's why y'all want, yeah, it lives in us. That doesn't just go away like she said. And if we
Starting point is 00:42:34 don't start unpacking it seriously, it will also be the end of us. This distinguished panel. Distinguished panel. Thoughts? From all, distinguished panel distinguished panel thoughts from all please please in a hurry no need for all of you to just sit here
Starting point is 00:42:54 in silence she's basically saying it's generational trauma passed down that's the reaction we were looking for what you said before your movie come on that white looking to jump out of you She's saying we were looking for what you said before your movie. Come on. That white looking to jump out of you.
Starting point is 00:43:10 Look, go ahead. Look at the white jumping out. You can see the white jumping out like Catherine. Look, she ready. Hey, man. Taraji be in Harlem, too. Just watch what you say. Watch how you say it.
Starting point is 00:43:22 And she got hands. I love her. And she don't like them little video girls. Oh, shit. And she don't like y'all little vixens. Them little. It's always them little. And she don't like little vixen hoes. Taraji likes me.
Starting point is 00:43:38 That. I mean. Oh, you done? Oh, shit. I'm passing out. Oh, shit. Yo, Mel is off work. Mel ain't here with us. No, I'm out. Oh, shit. Yo, Mel is off work. Mel ain't here with us.
Starting point is 00:43:46 No, I'm here. Even though that's how she normally is at work. Shut up. I'm here. No. I mean. Do you think that, what do you think about what she said? Well, I mean, what she's saying is kind of like factual.
Starting point is 00:43:59 So it's not really like she's stating just an opinion. It's rooted in actual fact. Oh, see, I don't know that. So explain it to me. Teach me. Well, when she's talking about plantation time, black people were not allowed to express joy. You know, and so when they had,
Starting point is 00:44:14 that's where the term barrel of laughs come from, is like black people hiding the fact that they were feeling joy or the fact that they found something funny because they weren't allowed to express joy. That's what she's talking about when she's expressing this sentiment. Anyone else.
Starting point is 00:44:36 What? Anyone else. Anyone else? What? I just want to laugh. I do too. I just want to laugh. I do too.
Starting point is 00:44:43 I'm laughing. I'm a barrel of laughs right now. I'm a barrel of laughs. Two barrels. I know, man. It might be some truth to it, but we just over- Overanalyze shit? Man, that's what we do.
Starting point is 00:45:00 Don't, but what's the context of the conversation? All there is is a clip. So what's the before? Why did this even come up in conversation? You know what I mean? Because Oprah didn't pay Taraji. That's why. And ever since, she has...
Starting point is 00:45:12 So look, when niggas find something funny, why we do this? Are we whooping each other or something? Me too. Because when we were slaves, you know what I'm saying? We just extra up your ass. Even if what you're saying is true.
Starting point is 00:45:25 Come on, let's get on with some discourse here. Even if what you're saying is true, Mel. I don't believe that that's why I do that. Me neither. I don't believe that when I hit the laugh and run away, I can assure you it is not because of what generational trauma my ancestors went through and I'm carrying it in my DNA and my bloodline.
Starting point is 00:45:53 And that's why it's just 224. When my nigga, first of all, that theory is wrong because most of the shit I laugh at, you shouldn't laugh at. I know why that's wrong already. If I'm just going by the universe. Hell no, I shouldn't be laughing at some of the shit I laugh at. You shouldn't laugh at. I know why. That's wrong already. That is a fact. If I'm just going by the universe.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Hell no, I shouldn't be laughing at some of the shit I laugh at. You shouldn't be. I don't know. I know that. Hey,
Starting point is 00:46:12 I'll give him a little shout out. I'm 22. I had a little person on this chat. That's all. He fell off the chair. Jacob fell off the chair. I watched that shit
Starting point is 00:46:20 a million times. Hey, I don't even care if it was fake or a plan. This little nigga tried to scoot up. But he was on the edge of the thing. I take a headset. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba.
Starting point is 00:46:38 Yo, when I tell you I cried, I hit the rewind. Watch again. I made it enlarge the screen. Oh, my Lord. But anyway. Yeah, I don't think that's why I'm running away with them. Me either, yo. What say you guys?
Starting point is 00:46:52 Fuck out of it. Oprah got to do it. We got to stop. I go loud. Oprah, do the right thing. We do fucked up. Fuck. We find a reason to dissect everything that we do.
Starting point is 00:47:01 I don't get it, though. This is when I start to feel like, yeah, like Kanye with the whole some of that shit, y'all just keeping alive. Word. Even if that shit is true, why are you saying that in 2024? To Ice's point, when we laugh, we start hitting each other and leaning on each other. That came from slavery, too?
Starting point is 00:47:20 I'm going to hit you because of massive, you cry. I'm going to beat you first. Get the fuck, come on, y'all. Well, that couldn't have came from slavery because you would have been in the house. You can't hit like Ice. Ice wouldn't have been with you in the house. All that little Newark Brothership shit. That's not true.
Starting point is 00:47:34 That's my man, though. I'd have hit my man at the cornbread. Yo, Ish, know the fuck we wouldn't have. Yes, I would have. Get your own cornbread. Oh, shit. You hit your man. Yes, I would. Get your own comrade. Oh, shit. You hear that, man? I was in here.
Starting point is 00:47:50 I was playing the fiddle. You don't have to fiddle. You're humming in the sleep. Oh, shit. You hear that, Ice? They would have flat left you. I ain't mad at you. That's fucked up.
Starting point is 00:48:04 They would have flat left you. To know who you are you. That's fucked up. They would have flat left you. To know who you are is to know who you would have been in any era.

Starting point is 00:49:27 I think what she was trying to say is... I was giving context to the clip. I was definitely giving context to the clip. That's what I was giving was context to the clip. What else is important? But I do think that it was like... I don't get why it has to be so serious. Especially about laughing. Yes.
Starting point is 00:49:43 Shannon Sharp said, I'm laughing all the way to the bank. My Cat Williams interview got me more than I ever made in any year of professional football. And fuck y'all haters.
Starting point is 00:49:52 That's what he said. Bravo. Applause for that. That's what he said. Does that mean we still can't joke on certain shit he do? Nah, I'm here for the jokes.
Starting point is 00:50:01 Okay, cool. I'm here for the jokes. Alright, cool. Because just because you got some money off of that shit don't mean some of this shit that you're doing ain't looking crazy. I'm here for the jokes. Okay, cool. I'm here for the jokes. All right, cool. Because just because you got some money off of that shit don't mean some of this shit that you're doing there looking crazy.
Starting point is 00:50:08 I'm not going to lie. I love Shannon. But that nigga looks, he looks sick. How so? When he got out that goddamn truck. What's your name?
Starting point is 00:50:22 I'm going to say it. I don't care. I'm going to say it. But what's your name across socials? Imani Imani. I don't care. I'm going to say it. But what's your name across socials? Imani Music. All right. Imani Music,
Starting point is 00:50:28 whichever one. All right. When he did that little, you see now I'm in total while all that other shit and his arms couldn't move because the green shit was moving.
Starting point is 00:50:37 I ain't like seeing him like that. It only like reaffers some of the little funny shit he was saying. He just was in Queensbury. He can't beat me up. He can't.
Starting point is 00:50:45 I'm too small. He don't get no wins on that. He don't care about that. He just want to whoop your ass. Yeah, sometimes it don't pay back. Sometimes they don't care about the points. Wait, hold on. All right.
Starting point is 00:50:53 You think Shannon Sharp would see this and he would probably be offended. You think he see this and be like, I'm going to beat his little light-skinned ass. No, but if he see you out, say, yo, what's that shit you said? And the way you know how you respond. You know what I'm going to say? You know what I'm going to gonna say I'm gonna say sorry sir Hold on He walk up to you

Starting point is 00:51:43 and the orange little purse across his thing and seem like he can't move it. It looked a little funny. Think he leaning into it? Might be. That's what I think. Might be.

Starting point is 00:55:43 Why is he trying to make me sound like this? I think you young enough to where if somebody is a hot 50, that it could be a thing. I don't think I am. I don't think I would meet a 50. I'm like, ooh, she's 50. No. I think I've had enough experience in life where I ain't going to be impressed by age.
Starting point is 00:56:04 In my sex world, I'm 52, nigga. But first of all, I don't want to hear how old you are in your sex world. Not yet. I'm not in your dick age. Nigga pulled his dick age out. I'm 52. Dick wise, I'm not 50.
Starting point is 00:56:28 I'm an old soul. And was you telling that to us? No. We don't care. So speaking of Shana Sharp. I love when you catch my shit. Was you telling us? no I wasn't telling anyone we come outside
Starting point is 00:56:48 and for the hell we'll get you in another place yeah anyway Shannon Sharp interviewed Shannon Sharp
Starting point is 00:56:57 interviewed Steve Stout you did Steve Stout was up there Steve's always a good time always a great time always a great interview great conversation
Starting point is 00:57:04 so much just wisdom experience and money that he's made a good time always a great time always a great interview great conversation so much just wisdom experience and money that he's made oh my god he just talked I don't hear nothing else that's it watching him
Starting point is 00:57:12 you just hear money I don't hear nothing and he put that stupid money voice on too posh bitch yo he did that shit while standing in Queensbridge
Starting point is 00:57:21 and he's not a posh bitch I'm the posh bitch he do that shit like I had this since 88. He do. It look very different. And he said it. He put that voice on though.
Starting point is 00:57:29 Y'all hear the voice? Yeah, I sold that right there for $190 million. When I was 28. When I was 28 years old, I had a choice. I could stay at the label for $2.5 million,
Starting point is 00:57:42 but there was this other brand that was just starting where I could make $100,000 a and a half million, but there was this other brand that was just starting where I could make $100,000 a year. But if you have the vision, then, you know. It'll carry you. So I left there. I went over there, don't you know,
Starting point is 00:57:55 and one year later, I put that brand in the right spots on the right people to be seen and raise the visibility. Don't you know, in two years, we sold for $180 million. I was 30 years old. You just be looking
Starting point is 00:58:10 at your phone like, how old am I? How old am I? Throw this fucking phone into the Hudson. I don't even know how old I am. What is age?
Starting point is 00:58:19 What's the numbers? What is that? You did what at 27? That's crazy. Yeah. He tore a hole in Skip Baylor's ass. Pause? He did what at 27? That's crazy. Yeah. He tore a hole in Skip Bayless' ass. Pause. He did.
Starting point is 00:58:29 He went on in and told the truth about Skip Bayless. He did. Which is just a fact. But I mean, I love Skip. Shout out to Skip. And I do think that Skip has earned his coin. That's where I disagree. But it's blatantly obvious that he needs a black counterpart for the success.
Starting point is 00:58:49 I agree. I like that everybody's coming on there and saying this on Shannon's platform. Without Shannon having to say it. I think Skip would say that. Shannon get to ask messy shit and it don't come off messy because of all that Lululemon shit he got on. Him and his interview team, whoever is helping him prepare for these interviews, is going crazy.
Starting point is 00:59:10 He's having the best year ever. Steve even stopped him and said, who wrote that question for you? Something like that. When he asked about Kanye taking the mic at his wedding. No, there was another one too. I forgot what it was. They killing. The whole team is killing. It's not just Shannon.
Starting point is 00:59:25 That is 100% a group effort, and they are killing shit. But yeah, Steve went crazy on Skip Bayless, and then he went into the Rockefeller split, which is a story that... When are we going to get tired of the Rockefeller split story? I don't know if you ever do.
Starting point is 00:59:39 When? I've been tired. So you're tired already. I don't think we'll get tired until we hear from Jay specifically 100%
Starting point is 00:59:48 I agree who here thinks that they'll ever hear from Jay which is why we won't get tired of him more than what you've already heard
Starting point is 00:59:55 never but that answers the question that's why we'll never get tired of it it's still going to be a lot of speculation what's the name of that song lost one
Starting point is 01:00:04 yeah what more we need from him What's the name of that song? Lost One. Yeah. What more we need from him? Okay. Make it up. We love when part like. Yeah, that was. He did. That was his response.
Starting point is 01:00:18 He told us. I'll try to find it. Y'all talk. No, that's it. But I'm just over that shit. I know Dame probably is over it every single Dame dash interview it's Rockefeller revisited from 20 years ago that shit is insulting no shot is it as a compelling Dame
Starting point is 01:00:40 interview without Rockefeller mentioning and which will lead to his I don't want to call it bitterness but which leads to him taking shots I think Dame is well-spoken I think Dame is diverse that he could talk about a whole bunch of different shit I don't think he's just Rockefeller bound in his interviews his interviews
Starting point is 01:01:00 be two and three hours long sometimes it ain't two and three hours what's the part that hits every time what's the part that clips up and goes viral what's the part that that's not his fault but that but the interviewer knows i'm gonna get this out of you though it's not my fault we know what it is you bring a certain person here we know we're gonna get some rockefeller from dan it's not a dip song it's just a real song It's not a dip song, it's just a real song Feel me? I heard motherfuckers saying they may hold
Starting point is 01:01:30 May hold, say okay, so make another hold Niggas wasn't playing they day roll So we parted ways like Ben and J-Lo Should've been, didn't, but I've been in the days though I put friends over business into the day though You get it. Yeah. I never noticed that he did a lot of doubles in that song.
Starting point is 01:01:50 I'm sorry. Bad boy now. He never does doubles like that. Anyway, sorry. That boy good, right? I think, I mean, if there's new information, I think we all here for it. And we rarely get new information, though.
Starting point is 01:02:06 We very rarely get new information. Dame is going on to do Dame things. Hov is going on to do Hov things. I don't really care. I think the conversation is over if there's ever a day where they can actually, like, piece it in a real way. Like, I think we got one moment where they were in a picture together or something for somebody else's birthday. But if we had a moment where they could actually,
Starting point is 01:02:28 because we've seen it happen where Biggs comes back and him and Jay's still working and Jay's pieced it up with Fat Joe and Jim and all that. If we can have that moment where they piece it up in that way, I think no one cares
Starting point is 01:02:39 about the story no more. That never happened. I think it goes away completely. I don't think that's ever going to happen. I don't think that's ever going to happen. I don't think that's ever going to happen. Well, I don't think that what Steve said was the worst.
Starting point is 01:02:50 Me neither. I don't think it was so bad, but I also don't know all the history between Steve and Dame. Yeah, like I don't... And clearly there is history.
Starting point is 01:03:00 Yeah, Dame has talked about Steve Stout a bunch. Dame has ripped Steve Stout on numerous occasions. He said one interview, pardon me, he said that every time somebody sues him, Steve gives them the lawyers. Or Steve will be like a consultant to help the people sue him. So he said he ain't like that. Dame has gone on Steve a bunch of times.
Starting point is 01:03:23 Clearly there's some animosity there. But Dame ain't like that Dame has gone on Steve A bunch of times Clearly there's some Yeah There's something Animosity there But Dame ain't like None of that shit Steve said And he responded with That's why I had to Pop you in your fucking mouth A few years back Right?
Starting point is 01:03:34 Yeah That's what he said That's what he said And if it's Like you said If it's If we got some type of animosity Don't say my name at all
Starting point is 01:03:42 Yeah About nothing Even in a good manner Just don't say my name Yeah but then it don Even in a good manner, just don't say my name. Yeah, but then it don't make for a good interview. That's not true. I'm just saying
Starting point is 01:03:50 because you didn't come near asking to be asked those questions and then when you're asked those questions, you either got a decision of being honest or just not giving
Starting point is 01:03:59 a good interview. Okay, now you can give that good interview but now you just have to be prepared for whatever comes with that interview. Yo, not just that. This is Steve Stout, my nigga.
Starting point is 01:04:07 This is black greatness. That nigga got enough information in his brain that he don't have to entertain Dame Dash rhetoric and can still give you a three-hour interview. It's true. But I remember, for lack of a better way of expressing it, there has been like several decades long right kind of rivalry between the two of them like i remember that you know being on the set of big pimpin and in that circle i remember it's like steve was jay's straight man to where dame was a fucking lunatic back then pouring champagne like all the rumors of him just kind of like being wild and stuff like that and jade wanting to take his you know career on the straight and narrow kind of
Starting point is 01:04:49 path that was really evident at that time and it seems like that's what they keep going back to like in terms of the conversation and what is your name across socials She set herself right up for the vacation. Mella put her phone down and said, all right, fuck y'all. It's true. I will. But yeah. Okay, but the socials are.
Starting point is 01:05:13 Kevin, listen forward. Okay. I ain't going to stand alone. There's somebody looking for you. With a Y. Yeah. They know me. I'm staying out of they shit.
Starting point is 01:05:23 They shit is from the 90s Dame my man Steve my man whatever shit y'all did I don't know nothing about both successful black men like the grown up in me wants to say that was fucked up of Dame to respond like that
Starting point is 01:05:39 but I don't know that to be true and Dame been Dame for as long as I've known him. He been Dame. Dame is Dame. And Steve sounds like he knows that. So you got to kind of know
Starting point is 01:05:52 what may come from this person being this person. That's what I was saying. I know because I've been that person a lot. Could be a little poke in the bear at this point now if you keep talking about it.
Starting point is 01:06:03 Steve, kill him with that fucking long gray Louis fucking Sherlin to the floor. at this point now if you keep talking about it. Steve, kill him with that fucking long gray Louis fucking Sherlin to the floor. Just look rich. He is. That they don't sell no more.
Starting point is 01:06:11 He is. Back from 2011. One of one. Whatever. Nigga. I had to sit in the closet for a decade and a half or twice.
Starting point is 01:06:21 Steve is my man. And know what I like about Steve? That when it's a black person that's getting some motion and dictating the space, Steve go right there. Well, I mean, he's in the ad business,
Starting point is 01:06:31 so he ain't gonna go right there. But I like that he goes right there. At his statue. I like that he came over here, brung a bottle of wine, said, why you niggas still here? Why am I looking at a washer? I like all that.
Starting point is 01:06:43 And the time before that, I seen him in Miami I think a jeweler flew in from London to present some shit at the table I'm like yo I wanna go to my room alright I've seen enough for the night
Starting point is 01:06:57 Joe Joe come here want you to sit no I don't want to say anything I want to see my bed and my pillow lay your head on a pillow. Yeah, I'm staying out they beef. I am. And shout out to Shannon again. And niggas too old to be fighting.
Starting point is 01:07:16 And niggas too old to be fighting. Some niggas don't think they too old to fight. I know, but some niggas are too old to be fighting. But that don't mean you can't reminisce about a fight. Or it don't mean- Or I can let you know the fight. We can run it back. I don't want to see that.
Starting point is 01:07:31 Not really. 50-something years. The way that he was talking, he was choosing his words really wisely. I'm talking about Dame. It don't take- Oh, no. Only one person got to want to fight. I don't want to see that from-
Starting point is 01:07:43 That would be ridiculous. From two successful brothers. To be physically fighting? Y'all told me I was too grown. The nigga stole me, so I don't want to hear shit. I agree. And I'm young still. And the stole rules should be different, I think, too.
Starting point is 01:07:58 Than just we talking online, talking some shit. Stole rules in effect is if we 65, 70, wheelchair, handicapped, canes, then you can't steal. You can't steal off.
Starting point is 01:08:14 That shit would be hilarious. When it's up, it's up. It's beating on each other with canes. That's when the rules change. Other than that, we got to be mature. We got to be adults. All the same shit I just told Imani when he tried to do... We won't talk about it. We got to be adults. All the same shit I just told Imani when he tried to do, you know, we won't talk about it. But yeah, we got to be grown, mature adults. Every pod we come in here talking about our hip bone, our knees, our foot.
Starting point is 01:08:34 Mel already told you the sound you make getting up from the couch compared to Dwayne Johnson, how he would get up from the couch. The rock. Like she already told you that. Remember that, Big Mel? Yeah, I did. Whoa, shit. Yo, she already told you that. He wouldn't sit on his couch. Remember that, Big Mal? Yeah, I did. Whoa, shit. Yo, your man is great. That was hard, man.

It's going down. It is live.
Starting point is 01:10:45 Exclusively on Netflix. On Netflix. That's crazy. Exclusively on Netflix. That's important. Netflix is opening some shit up, boy. Please get that. I'll put my whole purse on Mike Tyson.
Starting point is 01:10:55 That's what they want you to do. So you pick Mike? Do I pick Mike? You're picking Mike. You're picking Mike. I'm picking Mike. Who else here is picking Mike? I'm picking Mike.

Starting point is 01:11:23 And he'll lose to Jake Paul? I think it will be called a loss. Yeah, you can't keep marketing Mike Tyson. They can keep marketing Jake Paul all around the world. And the whole thing with Jake Paul is he ain't fought no real... Yeah, so now we're going to put you up against Mike. They keep finding all his opponents
Starting point is 01:11:39 be some unique pick. Like, oh, old MMA. What happens if Mike Tyson beats Jake Paul? Nothing. Mike going to go right back to his crib, smoke some weed. Nothing. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:51 And so now the Jake Paul brand gets off the train. They can't keep marketing him anymore. I understand. I just watch Mike Tyson still to this day and he look fast as hell. Well, I don't think Jake Paul can really beat up Mike Tyson. He really can't. I think all Jake Paul fights
Starting point is 01:12:05 is the same as watching WWE. Yeah. Scripted. We know what's going to happen. We're going to make this entertaining. We're going to do
Starting point is 01:12:11 whatever we got to do. It's like watching Floyd's fights. Totally get that. Exactly. Same thing. Exhibitions. They're not,
Starting point is 01:12:18 we're not really, I'm not, it's not a real fight. Do you think that Mike Tyson would allow himself to publicly lose a fight though? Maybe not lose. He might go do something to get a DQ. Mike Tyson has lost already in fights, fight do you think that mike tyson would allow himself to publicly lose a fight though maybe not
Starting point is 01:12:25 lose he might go do something to get a dq mike tyson has lost already in fights right so he can he can at this point in his career 57 years old he can understand taking a loss and also understanding that this kid's brand needs to continue to grow who else to help him do that by me taking this loss with him i can see that happening. And being for real, I get that there might be some level of acting or scripted, but Jake Paul really can fight. He can box. And he's strong, and he's hit some people, and they've all
Starting point is 01:12:54 said he does have some power in his punch. I believe that to be true. Yeah, but do I think he's going in there with the thought, I'm about to go in there and try to knock out Mike Tyson? I wouldn't want to shove him in drunk white boy night. Stay out of that boss. Yeah, buddy. All that shit you said sound good.
Starting point is 01:13:09 It's Mike Tyson standing across from you. It's Mike Tyson at 57. We saw Mike Tyson fight Roy Jones, right? And even though that was an exhibition, right? They both,
Starting point is 01:13:17 after I think they did an eight round or something, they both looked at kind of like, we understand why y'all don't fight anymore. I don't think he's about to go in there and just show us
Starting point is 01:13:25 anything different that he showed us than the Roy Jones shit. I think he's going to have power. You also seen Roy Jones get on a bicycle and haul ass around that ring. Yeah. It's going to be like Tommy Morrison in Rocky 5. Rocky 5.
Starting point is 01:13:42 That white boy was out there knocking niggas out. Or it could be like Rocky. That's Tommy Morrison. It could be like the Rocky after that, where Rocky got in the ring and fought Antonio Tarver, beating his ass up at an old age. You never know. When I have more time, I'm coming in here to rep for Rocky, man.
Starting point is 01:13:58 They had an Antonio Tarver Rocky? Yeah. Yes. Oh, yeah, I gave up. Rocky did. All of that shit gave his heart, soul, blood, sweat, and tears to the franchise. Y'all had him acting when he was 97 years old. He was still out there.

Like, they sound like they have put in the thought and legwork into this.
Starting point is 01:23:34 So I can't wait to see where they go. They're both pros. Yeah, that part. From the looks of it, I might be wrong, they have unlimited resources at their disposal. Well, they both got their own bag. I mean, they both got their own bag. Mm-hmm. I mean, they both got their own big bag. No, but they got connections.

I just wanted to read a little bit about what started Women's International Women's Day. It began in New York City on March 8, 1857, when female textile workers marched in protest of unfair working conditions and unequal rights for women It is one of the first organized strikes by working women during which they called for a shorter workday and decent wages She's supporting that I'm glad that you read that. Mm-hmm. That she ain't gotta work no more. Can you also read some of the comments?

Starting point is 01:27:51 like the first 10 comments when some bolder... If she's smart, she turned the comments off. Well, I mean, she could turn the comments off on her page, but all the blogs
Starting point is 01:27:58 are posting it right now, so... And I'm gonna go to those comments. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's where you wanna get the real comments. That's where you wanna get it, right. And I'm gonna go to every one. Clear the whole rest of the day for that one.
Starting point is 01:28:07 I love when that shit say 14,000. What? Oh, this is going to be a long shit. Good shit. The best of shit. Oh, this is going to be a long shit. I got to take it. Okay.
Starting point is 01:28:18 Here's one in support. Okay. Let's start with the support. We don't care about that. We don't care about the support. Okay. We just gave a support. We want to hear some foul shit.
Starting point is 01:28:26 Okay. But not two fouls. This is a public broadcast. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, we'll come back to it. Okay, yeah. Yeah, because I see your lips is trembling. No, no.
Starting point is 01:28:35 Why your bottom lip is doing that fucking can of shit? Fuck off. Oh, shit. If securing the bag was a person, Joe Budden going to have a field day with this one. Oh, shit. Here we go. Why would you read that?
Starting point is 01:28:54 Why would you read that in the middle of the field trip? Why would you do that? Swings around. Bad field trippy shit. By a kid the same age as her first son, that's predatory. So basically, this is kind of, you know. Consensus. It's the consensus, yes.
Starting point is 01:29:13 Her son is that old? Her oldest son apparently is 20, 21. 22. Yeah. Congrats. Congrats. I don't have nothing to say. I don't have nothing to say.
Starting point is 01:29:23 What's up? I don't know if it's predatory. Is she good? You have nothing to say. I don't have nothing to say. What's up? I don't know if it's private. Is she good? You got something to say? If your stepfather is the same age as you, that might be some funny shit. See, it happened with the opposite gender all the time. It's true.
Starting point is 01:29:39 Yeah. It's very true. Can't tell me nothing, nigga. Doing that shit. Nigga, you take the garbage out of me. Fuck is you talking about, nigga? There were some of those comments in there, you know, that in the reverse, nobody says anything. So this is kind of like a societal double standard. So there was some of that.
Starting point is 01:29:59 I can guarantee you if I have a baby with a 22-year-old, somebody's going to say something. I was about to say that. Yeah, for sure. Because a lot of people say a lot. It's a double standard. They're going to say something. They was about to say, yeah, for sure. Because a lot of people say a lot. It's a double standard. They're going to say something. They say a lot. People do say a lot.
Starting point is 01:30:09 Mm-hmm. Some people were also saying, how come no one's talking about the fact that this could be his choice as well, that he wanted to have a baby with her? That's right. So that's some of the other comments. True. I'm sure he did. True.
Starting point is 01:30:22 That's true. I didn't even look at it from that point of view. Never. Never. He got, you know, that makes a lot of sense. Nigg sure he did. True. That's true. I didn't even look at it from that point of view. It worked. It worked. Well, he got, you know, that makes a lot of sense. Niggas trap women. Listen, when all the dudes in the entertainment business get jammed up and some get pregnant that wasn't supposed to get pregnant, they spend between $2 and $4.50 with some paperwork
Starting point is 01:30:41 and send it over. Sorry, I don't think, I thought that trick was out the bag. with some paperwork and send it over. Sorry, I don't think I thought that trick was out of the bag. I didn't think I was snitching. You're not? We've read it publicly up here. Yeah, these niggas

Starting point is 01:31:05 onto this earth. Amen. That's true. That's true. Let's pray for a healthy birth. Healthy child. That's it. The rest ain't our business.
Starting point is 01:31:13 That's true. Y'all look dumb as hell. I'm just telling y'all that y'all look dumb as hell in the face. Maybe I do too, but I wash your hands. Y'all look dumb as hell in the face? Maybe I do too, but I wash your hands. Y'all look dumb as hell.
Starting point is 01:31:27 And that little bit of silence on the podcast is, I don't know what to say to shit. Like that little awkward silence is very loud. Speaks volume. Very telling. It is loud. I'm happy for them. Yeah, that's it.
Starting point is 01:31:43 I'm happy. Listen, that nigga dunking out the gym. Now, they on her ass because they posted some pictures the other day of her being buddy-buddy with his girlfriend. His girlfriend at the time, the young girl. Like, she was at the games. They was at the house together. That's where it got a little tricky if you follow some of the- I didn't know about that.
Starting point is 01:32:07 That changes a lot for me. You make me wanna leave. Well the rumor is that she was at- A new relationship. All right. Hold on, that change a lot? Yeah, it changes a lot. Hell yeah, it changes a lot.
Starting point is 01:32:20 That changes a lot, Ice. I'm just asking. If you are in pictures with the ex-girlfriend at the time looking like y'all got more relationship than you and the dude, then now we talking to another level of predatory shit. We talking about a sniper. That's what the sniper do. Find your weakness.
Starting point is 01:32:39 Find a way to get in. You can't be sniping at the high school game. Yeah, come on. Don't snipe at the high school game, bro. Yeah, yeah. Listen, R. Kelly was bad when we heard all the shit we heard about him. But once we heard he was pulling up to that high school at the little McDonald's across the street. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:32:54 With his little plan and reserved table. It was like, hey. What? Nigga. Hey. Hey. Hey. The piss.
Starting point is 01:33:04 That's my brother on the tape. All of that shit. But the McDonald's across the street from the high school. See, the good sniper. You got to go. The good sniper lay in the bushes and he just wait. I don't even want to hear. That's inappropriate.
Starting point is 01:33:15 I don't even want to hear bushes in this conversation. This is bad. This is bad. No, no, no. We don't think you playing. We don't think she playing. She wasn't playing. No, we just saying she should think you playing. We don't think she playing. We wasn't playing. No, we just saying
Starting point is 01:33:25 she should have been playing. All right. You said, what you guys? No. Did you? What the fuck are you talking about?
Starting point is 01:33:35 Yo, how the nigga be on the movie? Who the spotter? What the spotter be doing? It's the spotter. He be like, one, two. He do like a count.
Starting point is 01:33:43 He do like a count. Oh, Ali Baldwin. Oh, shit. Yo. just laughing about fucked up shit See, this goes back to what Taraji's saying. Just laughing about fucked up shit. It's a trauma response. It came from Ann and Harry. In that situation, you see the... The stunt girl.
Starting point is 01:34:12 The stunt girl's found guilty of manslaughter, by the way. Involuntary manslaughter. Another pat on the back for Joe. Well, not a pat on the back because her life was lost, but you know what I'm saying. I think they're going to serve Alec Baldwin ass up on the same platter. I think that if the girl got involuntary manslaughter, he might get the same.
Starting point is 01:34:29 Yeah. Only difference is the girl's company and the girl were responsible for handling the firearms. He was just a producer. Those live rounds were brought there a while ago. They shouldn't have been there. The gun wasn't checked. They went through the steps of all the missteps that led to this tragedy.
Starting point is 01:34:47 Yeah, Alec Baldwin's gone. I could have been the lawyer if he was on the stand. Pulling the slide back in there. Are you the one that shot this shit? Yes or no? Say word is born. On gang. On gang.
Starting point is 01:35:03 And I rest my case. And I rest my case. Cinema. On gang. And I rest my case. Oh, man. That is it. This nigga's a fool. And some other news.
Starting point is 01:35:11 I mean, this is important to me. I'm happy about it. Y'all may not care. Y'all may care. But it seemed like- I care about everything you guys said. It seemed like Jeezy heard us. And I say us, I mean the Jeezy fans.
Starting point is 01:35:21 He went and announced a playlist show where he's allowing the day ones to submit to kind of curate what the set list is going to be. You said you're using it already? You said the 10? 10. Nigga, you don't want me to do the list. You're going to be there all night. I love this idea. I love it.
Starting point is 01:35:40 I love this idea. He heard the fans. He heard the reviews and was like, eh, y'all right. Mm-hmm. Y'all deserve one, and I'm going to do it the right way. Do it in Atlanta. Y'all can even pick the set list. That's just sold out already.
Starting point is 01:35:53 That's going to go the way it's supposed to go. See, I would even go to that. See, that I would go to. I'll go to the B-side shows or the anniversary shows, but that sounds fine. Is he doing it with the band and the orchestra and all that shit? I don't know. I didn't see anything about the band. He should if he does that so yes I think but um he does like I said he's done shows with the band right so I don't know if it's full
Starting point is 01:36:11 orchestra like that previous show yeah but I do think he will have a band to some capacity okay he and he got slaps yeah hopefully does something similar to what Ross did Ross did his whole big show and he had a live orchestra there and everything. Hopefully something like that. He just did an orchestra show a couple months ago. That's dope. So I'm happy to hear that. And I'm definitely going to be in Atlanta for that one.
Starting point is 01:36:35 Okay, now's a good time to talk about what Nelly said. Let's do it. Did anybody hear what Nelly said? I did. I did not, but I'll pretend like I did. I mean, I don't even really have to play this. He basically said that his error was the toughest error to be in. Oh, wait, let me play this while you're sitting here.
Starting point is 01:37:02 You know, you're sitting right here. We do certain shit, right? I never discredit writers who write on my album. I got he you're sitting right here. And we do certain shit, right? I never discredit writers who write on my album. I got hella co-writers, and we do certain shit, right? Describe it. Quick little sidebar. It's just like this. They can write it.
Starting point is 01:37:14 Who's going to sing it like this? Yeah, you can snap your fingers off. I know who's coming after me. Don't snap. Don't dance. Don't you really looking for Tell me if you need to Yeah, you can snap your fingers on me I know who coming after Don't snap, don't dance, don't dance Don't move, yeah, don't sing, don't add harmony None of this shit I know Uh-oh
Starting point is 01:37:37 She said, it's so hard to reach Don't know what you really looking for Tell me if you need to Tell me if you need to You gotta mute it up. Why don't you? Yes, you do. I'm the one you're looking for. I wanna be C3. It ain't even fair for me to let it play. When you look at me.
Starting point is 01:37:56 It ain't even fair. You know I can teach you. Teach you everything. Are you hearing me? Come on, Romeo Santos. Yo, listen. Come on. Hey, as a vocal me? Come on, Romeo Santos. Yo, listen. Come on. As a vocal guy, come on, Romeo Santos. Let me do it, because
Starting point is 01:38:11 when I'm just as passionate about things that I'm right about, let me be just as passionate about when I say things that are just kind of outlandish, right? So on an episode, I said, whatever I said about no longer wanting to hear people compare Usher and Chris Brown, I still stand in that, right said about No longer wanting to hear people compare Usher and Chris Brown I still stand in that
Starting point is 01:38:26 Right I don't want to hear the two comparisons But let me just be very clear for the public When I say what I say Chris Brown is that nigga He's going to always be that nigga And he's going to die that nigga As far as when it comes to just this industry shit
Starting point is 01:38:40 He kills that shit In comparison to what Usher did 100% And I am in no position To ever say anything Against his talent Okay That's it
Starting point is 01:38:51 Nelly claims that the 2000s Was the quote Toughest era of hip hop ever He said when I put out songs I had to go against DMX Jay-Z Eminem
Starting point is 01:39:01 Lil Wayne 50 Cent Ludacris And all of us are fighting for one spot. He spoke about how for his diamond-selling country grammar album, he wasn't even nominated for Best New Artist. He said in 2001, Alicia Keys was the person that won that, and he said she should have. But the competition was steep for him. I've said that a million times, but it hits different hearing Nelly say it.
Starting point is 01:39:28 Yeah, coming from the guy that ruled that era, at least. Yeah, he was one of them. But that's why, see, his list is all of those people that was them too. X, Hov, M, Wayne, 50, Luda, and he stopped talking. Yeah, yeah, because he ain't seen Ja. He kept going, Jai's in there you had to deal with. Shit, I had to deal with
Starting point is 01:39:47 Jeezy coming out with all the BMF. You had to deal with T.I. coming out. Shit, I had to deal with Cassidy, but that's a whole other story. I'm just saying that little 99 to 05.
Starting point is 01:39:59 It was rough. Yeah. It was tough. Hard to get a ticket. Hard to get a ticket. And if you wasn't actively trying to compete in that shit, you're not going to understand that. Am I mistaken to say include Fab in there?
Starting point is 01:40:10 Fab? Yeah, for sure. And in the late 80s. Yeah, it took some of my shine. And in the late 80s, you had to put Mase in there until he retired. Here you go, aging us out. No, I'm just saying. Well, he retired before 99.
Starting point is 01:40:21 No. That album came out in 98. Harlem World came out in 98. Harlem World came out in 98. And Mase was fish grease. Double Up. Double Up came out in like 2000. Yeah, yeah. So he faded to black, but...
Starting point is 01:40:34 Yeah, that shit was real. I don't think Mase is in that time period, though. He's a little bit before. Late 90s. My hair before. But Nelly 100% is correct. He's right. I want to fact check you, I'm just taking your word for it
Starting point is 01:40:45 On Harlem War? Yeah I feel like it was 97 You can check I was in front of Newark, Minnesota Until I was washing cars Niggas was pulling up With Lexus
Starting point is 01:40:53 Playing that shit I was hating It's alright Talking about a $3 car wash 97 I'll take this car 97 October 97
Starting point is 01:40:59 I'll trade my receipt When you look at me But anyway Real tough error. I'm glad that Nelly said it. It hit different when the nigga that sold 10 million records says it.
Starting point is 01:41:08 And he is absolutely right. Maybe I'm the only one on the other side here. That was the toughest error to do what? Sell. Be out. To compete.
Starting point is 01:41:17 Sell and compete. And be a top dog. To anything. To anything. Y'all were able to be mainstream artists then. It couldn't be the toughest era in the 80s. They ain't had that.
Starting point is 01:41:29 They didn't have them outlets y'all got. Y'all niggas was popping up. A Midwest nigga where you had the internet. You had the world actually able to hear your music. You're wrong. I'm wrong? You're wrong. How?
Starting point is 01:41:40 Do you know how hard it was for that nigga to be from the Midwest? Yeah, it's not easy. And get acclaim on the East Coast and the West Coast? They was dissing the shit out of St. Louis. And my point is
Starting point is 01:41:50 And in the 80s that wasn't the expectation. Hip hop wasn't In the 80s that wasn't even the expectation. So that's harder than Y'all can't even Nah, you had to be nice.
Starting point is 01:41:59 He talking about selling records. He talking about competition. He talking about you dropping Yes, he said Yo, we fighting for one spot. That's why I asked you
Starting point is 01:42:07 what he meant. No, all these niggas, I'm going to blows with this nigga and this nigga and this nigga and this nigga and I still got to the top.
Starting point is 01:42:15 And they started the conversation off asking him, being from St. Louis, was it hard to get, like, respect and earn his keep? And he was like,
Starting point is 01:42:23 hell yeah, and that's what started that conversation but what? That nigga had mad conversation That's why I asked for clarity Yeah cause that might have been around a time where people
Starting point is 01:42:30 stopped going to the record stores to buy multiple projects they had to choose which project I'm buying at this point like with the Kanye and 50 shit they had to make a fake beef
Starting point is 01:42:41 just to get people to be motivated to get both purchases at that point so purchases at that point so maybe at that point in time was like listen we either gonna go buy the nelly joint we're gonna go buy the m joint whoever and just see who lands on top at that point yes royce was with a young artist uh yesterday who's got some motion some traction happening and he was just asking us old
Starting point is 01:42:59 niggas like about the different times like he was inquisitive He was like what what was it like back then and how hard was it? And what was y'all metric for like the way we look at streams and I was just playing to him a back then There was this thing called BDS which counts how many times your record plays on on radio and That's what you went by and when we had that whole long talk and we just got into some of the things you had to do as an artist back then like the free promo tour mmm had to happen college tours so now these kids got to think that they got a record and they they hit upload and they work it like that from your phone and he was saying i think today might be hard because i gotta do shit from my phone and we all laughed we had that old nigga moment like
Starting point is 01:43:49 dinosaurs from from your from your phone you could make the song shoot the video we had to do free promo tours we had to do free promo tours we had to go to that dj power summit every year where the djs from all over the world came and now you had to kiss their ass and subject pause to even get your record played that's true somewhere we had to deal with the fake BDS spins from markets that didn't even matter and here's where we really blew his head off no new fact here we had to send people to a store right although today is difficult to cut through being that there's so much more product available
Starting point is 01:44:26 and to have any type of longevity is much more difficult I counter that with Ghetto Fabulous and Blueprint dropping on 9-11 yeah different battles both difficult yeah they're both difficult
Starting point is 01:44:42 you do gotta cut through today that's bottom line so good luck to all y'all young kids out there yeah but that was the definitely peak Both difficult. You got it. Yeah, they both difficult. They both difficult. You do got to cut through to that. That's the bottom line. So good luck to all y'all young kids out there. Yeah, but that was definitely the peak era as far as superstars in one place at one time. Commercialism. Yeah. Now that I understand. And back then, right?
Starting point is 01:44:56 And back then, just on the strength of how deals were structured back then, I had a five-album deal with an option for them. And albums wasn't... You lucky to get an album. You wasn't doing an album a year. Actually. No. You had to be one of them to do that. A five album deal is a lifetime contract back then.
Starting point is 01:45:18 Different fights. Different strokes. Different folks. What else? What else we got that's important? Unimportant? Well, we could that's important, unimportant? Well, we could take a quick second just to show respect to,
Starting point is 01:45:29 I want to make sure I say this name correctly, Akira Toriyama. Toriyama. Which is the creator of Dragon Ball Z passed at the age of 68. I know Flip has been up here
Starting point is 01:45:40 getting his anime on so it'll only be right that we, and past anime, he's legendary. I saw a lot of sad people about this for sure I'm not all the way
Starting point is 01:45:48 familiar but I saw a lot of people in Deep Morning yeah I had people calling and texting my phone I'm not talking
Starting point is 01:45:56 about social media like really reaching out fucked up over this I did not understand exactly I've never seen Dragon Ball Z so I didn't know
Starting point is 01:46:04 but Dragon Ball Z was huge Dragon Ball Z so I didn't know but Dragon Ball Z was huge Dragon Ball Z was huge I understand he was doing comic book shit he was doing a bunch of shit it was it's a whole movement
Starting point is 01:46:12 that they had going on yeah this is a big deal to the community for sure rest in peace we want to show our respects yeah I really wish Flip was here
Starting point is 01:46:19 yeah yeah word for real this was a flip thing he might have shed a tear probably called out cause he morning cause of that yeah we don't know he won't talk to us Yeah. Yeah, word. For real. This was a flip thing. He might have shouted to you. Probably called out because he's morning. Because of that?
Starting point is 01:46:26 Yeah, we don't know. He won't talk to us. That's true. Stupid, yeah. Shut up. I'm going to tell you, I'm going to just start sending wellness checks
Starting point is 01:46:34 like Karen's. Hey, go over there knock on that door and just see what's going on. For real, I'll make sure everybody... You said like Karen's or like parents?
Starting point is 01:46:41 I said Karen's. Parents too, though. Y'all got a system in place for that? Nah said Karen's. Parents too though. Y'all got a system in place for that? Nah. Think about it. I know, you're right. We getting up there, really. I have a system in place now.

Starting point is 01:47:03 Daily. Daily. We have to speak every morning by a certain time. Daily? Daily. Daily. We have to speak every morning by a certain time. It definitely happens daily. Fam, I live by myself. Nigga, I know that. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:47:11 I live by myself. Daily. Not to sadden the top, but my biggest, biggest fear is for that to happen and baby girls in the house. Now I'm saying. Sorry.
Starting point is 01:47:20 But I'm just saying. But that is the check with moms. Yo, if I don't reach by a certain time, she knows she got a spare but and she lives like
Starting point is 01:47:29 15 minutes away from me if you can't reach me she got my location and I'm still in the house and ain't moving or nothing we have to pop up there I think it's sad that my wellness check
Starting point is 01:47:38 is that if you don't see me post on Twitter or Instagram in like three days then it might be something no I know that's sad I know, I know.
Starting point is 01:47:45 That's sad. I know. That shouldn't be the case. Yeah. That has to be fixed immediately. I like sometimes disconnecting from everyone. So how does that happen
Starting point is 01:47:55 if you have to continuously do a daily wellness check? Like I would like to be able to say, guess what? The next two days, I don't want to hear from nobody. I don't want to see nobody. I want to be able to turn off my phone, go somewhere and just chill. Then you're going to be found land. And if I'm dead, I'm dead. Yeah, you're going to be able to say, guess what? The next two days, I don't want to hear from nobody. I don't want to see nobody. I want to be able to turn off my phone, go somewhere, and just chill.
Starting point is 01:48:07 Then you're going to be found laying on the floor. And if I'm dead, I'm dead. Yeah, you're going to be found laying on the floor. Finding out that day and tomorrow ain't going to matter. Your cat's going to be eating you and shit. Well, yesterday, I don't want to make this morbid, but it does matter the condition that your body is found in and the time after you're dead. I mean, that's true. It does matter.
Starting point is 01:48:22 Especially in the summer. If you want to be viewed a certain way in an open casket, it did matter. The niggas ain't gonna be able to put your frohawk on. Word. If I come in and you've been dead
Starting point is 01:48:32 for like a week, it's like, all right, nigga. Like, zip this shit. No through, no out. Open the window, man. Yo, zip this. Zip this.
Starting point is 01:48:40 I text Flip to check on him. So he says he's doing okay. And the odor coming through. It's like, yo, spray Febreze this nigga. Light a candle. See, this is why they hit E and say, yo, I don't have no real friends up here.

Where Imani was pouring his heart out on a Patreon episode, and I, let me not say we, I cracked a joke, and then they'd start calling and texting, and I'm talking about, oh my God, that joke's not your real friend.

Starting point is 01:58:32 That pass for Shannon I fuck with Mike Epps You spelled it out E-M-S-H Oh I got a funny story To tell you I fuck with Mike Epps End of the day
Starting point is 01:58:39 Mike Epps was on The Up and Smoke podcast With Steven Jackson Jackson and Matt Barnes and he had mentioned something about just wanting to become a better man for women because he felt like his karma was
Starting point is 01:58:52 based upon not being the greatest man to women. He's currently married and when he went home You can't get on these podcasts talking. Yeah, wifey ain't like that shit. You can't get on these podcasts talking. Yeah, wifey ain't like that shit. So she... You can't get on these podcasts talking.
Starting point is 01:59:06 Yeah, she quickly went ahead and must have said something when he got home. So he then made it very clear that I ain't doing no more motherfucking interviews. Oh, yeah. I'm quitting social media.
Starting point is 01:59:20 He even said, man, fuck all y'all. Crazy. Go for the mistake he made. What'd he say? A little shaky household. He cursed everybody with a microphone out because he said some shit. Smart move.
Starting point is 01:59:31 Smart move. On an interview, he talked about how he had just finally got blessed with a daughter. And he said his mother had passed away. And on the day his mother passed away, like a couple days after, he had just had a daughter. And he was like, yo, I know I wasn't getting a daughter because I always treated all the women like shit. Wait, no, he wasn't getting a son. A son, I'm sorry. A son, yeah.
Starting point is 01:59:50 Because I treated every woman in my life like shit for all these years. I lied to every single one of them. He was just going. I ain't know he was married like that until the other shit came out. Like, yeah, you wild on my nigga. See, I'm not all the way mad at that part. Me neither.

Starting point is 02:12:58 He think he can. Might have to take him out in the yard one day. Just real quick. You ain't had one of those moments? With my baby? You haven't needed to do that? Not with my baby. How old is he?
Starting point is 02:13:11 22. 22. He didn't try you at 16? No, he told, at 16, no. At 13, 14, he told his mother on me. That was his trick, telling his mom on me. Like, my tone and just my
Starting point is 02:13:26 I'm a lot and I didn't think about that with him he went right back to his mom and said yeah that nigga is
Starting point is 02:13:32 that nigga is crazy yo so hold on he spoke to me wow Mello Mello just said something about how his son was on the platform
Starting point is 02:13:42 and was telling Lala like oh my favorite basketball player is Paul George right and she got mad like how you not going to the platform and was telling Lala like oh my favorite basketball player is Paul George right and she got mad like how you not gonna say your dad and Mello was like listen I'm gonna have to take him out and school him real quick just to show him you you ain't gonna have to do that with Trey like as far as bars at some point no so you still got it because he can rap no thank thank the lord no that's not my that's not my story with him. It was the first 10 years, rough, but that next 10, that's my man, man.
Starting point is 02:14:10 What kind of rapper is he? What kind of rap does he do? Well, I don't know, because one year he was saying, fuck that moon music shit, and then the next year, everything sounded like moon music shit. So I was like, oh, he grown up, huh?
Starting point is 02:14:23 It's in your blood. In your bones. Genetics was like, oh, you're grown up, huh? It's in your blood. Yeah, in your bones. Genetics. Yeah, sure enough. But my baby was working. My baby got a girlfriend, lost a girlfriend, got another one,
Starting point is 02:14:36 lost her. But is he writing songs about these relationships? I'm sure. He calling me on that. The apple don't fall far from the tree. 25.
Starting point is 02:14:45 Oh, my Lord. And I heard something. Actually, it's 26. He just turned 26. And I heard something. Fire. Fire. Fire vocalist.
Starting point is 02:14:54 He's good. I'm definitely proud. I'm neck and neck with Joe. Joe's pretty proud. I'm over here like, I feel good. Yeah, but he's really good. He went a completely different direction from the direction that I went.
Starting point is 02:15:08 Which is what I usually see creatively, musically. Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. Basically like the opposite of me, musically. You think they be trying to do that shit on purpose? I think it's... So they can have their individuality? I think it's a bit to deal with having a parent that's an established artist.
Starting point is 02:15:27 I slept on that part. Yeah, me too. Me too. Like, I went to one of his basketball games when he was in high school, and he asked his mother, can dad not come to the next game dressed like Royce Da 5'9"? I don't even know what the fuck that is. I don't even know how to feel about it. They're like, what?
Starting point is 02:15:43 Well, okay. So, I mean, so you can imagine like some of the stuff that goes on. Mentally in their head. In their heads. Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. I can only imagine. So. Can I ask about Prime?
Starting point is 02:15:53 Sure. Where's Prime? I'm working on it. We're working on it. Prime 3. Slowly but surely. Working on anything else? You know what I always ask you about.
Starting point is 02:16:05 What? Bargain? BME what I always ask you about What? Bar exam? BME I would just talk Oh That could happen That might happen But prime There's more prime music that exists
Starting point is 02:16:16 And this is the first time In my career That I've been like Up to my ear In preem beats That I haven't Got a chance to get to yet Oh that's good
Starting point is 02:16:24 You know so Preem is like super focused. I can only dream to be that inspired at his age. Where he is right now, how long he's been around, all the things that he's accomplished and how motivated he continues to just be. I'm definitely inspired. But yeah, I've been working on it Slowly but surely But like I was telling Parks When he was off camera
Starting point is 02:16:47 I'm I'm not The raps don't They don't bring me The fulfillment As easy as they used to What are you finding there? Expand
Starting point is 02:16:56 You know like When you complete something Like all my fulfillment Used to come In completion Now it's like It's not a Motivational thing Because I can I can give it to you in completion. Now it's like it's not a motivational thing because I can give it to you however you want it.
Starting point is 02:17:09 I can write it whatever it is. But I can't always write it and feel that feeling that I'm looking for. It's way harder now than it used to be. Probably just from doing it so many different ways for so long. What are you finding in that? Production?
Starting point is 02:17:26 Production could be one. Production is a good form of inspiration. I think, you know why I think it is, though? I think it's because I did the Self-Defining album, and I didn't do it first. I love that album. Yeah, and it was just like, so by the time I did that, Book of Ryan,
Starting point is 02:17:43 I felt like I just said everything that I needed to say. So now it's just like, I don't ever want to feel like I'm just rapping just to be rapping. You ever see a point where you can see yourself retiring? Retiring? Retiring in the sense of putting out projects and something like that. Your boy's got artists. Your boy's got a studio. I'm saying for himself.
Starting point is 02:18:06 I don't ever want to... Yeah, I don't ever want to gracefully bow out and just go away. I don't want to do that. I always want to contribute, be able to contribute. So my thing about
Starting point is 02:18:16 transitioning from raps to whatever else is going to be, it's going to be whenever I feel like that whatever else is going to be can be more beneficial
Starting point is 02:18:24 and valuable to the culture than what my music could be as a contribution is there another genre of music that you might be interested in you know performing that's a great question I'm just because right now what you're saying is making me think of Andre 3000 yeah you know and how he was just like I don't I'm not in a space where I want to rap anymore I'm putting out a fucking flute album Cause that's where I am mentally Listen to what I don't Yeah exactly I understand that completely
Starting point is 02:18:50 Completely I The last few times I recorded I've been singing more Yeah That's been bringing me more fulfillment I like just sometimes Just recording some shit
Starting point is 02:19:00 Where I'm singing And never let nobody hear it You know what I'm saying So I can totally get where he's at. Like he said something that really resonated with me. It's like, yo, I would love to give people just an all rap album right now, but it's just not happening. Sometimes you just go in there and the creativity just takes you in another direction.
Starting point is 02:19:18 You'd be a fool not to follow it. Got to embrace it, yeah. Because I believe that's where the pivot where he did Hey Ya, I believe that's what that was you know I don't think it was any like intentional I'm just about to be
Starting point is 02:19:30 different from my partner you know what I mean he's just doing you know he went where it took him against the better judgment of probably everybody around him
Starting point is 02:19:38 Outkast wasn't on that Nelly list you had to deal with Hey Ya man that Nelly list is up oh god I still have nightmares that's like one of the first songs that I didn't want to like Nelly List, you had to deal with Hey Ya. Man, that Nelly List is up. Oh, God. I still have nightmares. That's like one of the first
Starting point is 02:19:48 songs that I didn't want to like that I just couldn't help. I didn't want to like it back then. Dog, I was at BET. I was at BET in the back, big dressing room about to do 106 and park in some bullshit

It looks like J.Cole is the only one being competitive.
Starting point is 02:42:10 He's the only one who's rapping with the kind of conviction that says, you know, like, I still value the number one spot as a lyricist. I see where a lot of, especially the younger generations get, I see a lot of them not really hanging their hat on just the lyrical part of creativity at all. Like they're finding different ways to impact and to resonate with people. Like, you know what I mean? Which is fire. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 02:42:40 That's when the elder statesman is like myself. Start trying to learn. You know what I mean? I want to make myself understand. Like, why is this touching people like that? I can't even understand what they're saying. You know what I mean? So I think it's cool.
Starting point is 02:42:55 I think it's evolving. I think it's moving forward. It's definitely moving away from lyricism being the caveat, which I'm cool with. lyricism being the caveat, which I'm cool with because there's a lot more things that I can do besides be just like a,
Starting point is 02:43:09 you know, lyrical, lyrical. People can't walk and chew gum at the same time. So it's like when you can, when they feel like you can do one thing well,
Starting point is 02:43:16 they kind of put you in that box. So it's cool. It's cool that it's evolving into a space where you have no choice but to kind of look and see if there's other layers here. You know what I mean? So that's cool that it's evolving into a space where you have no choice but to kind of look and see if there's other layers here. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 02:43:28 So that's cool. So I'm still inspired to make music in that regard. What was the other question? No, I think that was it. The label, the label fire. Oh, the label. That was part of the landscape. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:43:41 Okay, yeah, but what you told me about that one label, yeah, what you told me last night, that was my first time even hearing that. Okay, yeah, don't say that. Like, I had no idea. You know I wasn't about to do that. Yeah, yeah, I saw that. I'm way too seasoned.
Starting point is 02:43:54 Yeah. Plus, I don't drink no more. Yeah, but I mean. Yeah, but it's scary. I got a lot of friends that work at labels. I mean, you know, it's a small community. Everybody know everybody. So I'm just always happy to see my people get jobs
Starting point is 02:44:10 or see people who along my journeys were at a certain level and to watch them elevate, knowing that you've known them from the beginning, that's always fulfilling, you know what I mean? So that's cool. But other than just analyzing relationships and saluting people i really don't know much about the inner workings of labels yeah because it changes so much you know i was listening to rob markman shout out to rob speak about uh the
Starting point is 02:44:40 industry layoffs and he said he's been speaking to a lot of people in the industry and the number one thing in his opinion from his survey that we lose, that artists lose, is that person at the label that's going to get them to understand your vision.
Starting point is 02:44:57 The translator. Yes. Mm-hmm. And a lot of people might not know just how deep that is. You mean get the label to understand the artist's vision? And vice versa.
Starting point is 02:45:08 Yeah. Okay. Translation goes both ways. Yeah, it's very important. It's very important. So with people losing that thing, I know there's a lot of artists out there that are just trying to find their way.
Starting point is 02:45:18 Like, that's really important in music. Yeah. You know who those people usually were? People who have made records before. Mm-hmm. The L.A. Reads. Mm-hmm. You know what those people usually were? People who have made records before. The L.A. Reeds. You know what I mean? But look at how much you got to pay those kind of people.
Starting point is 02:45:30 Yeah. You know? So it's like once you take away the equalizer, then you create an even wider margin of just disconnect and communication. And what I'm seeing from afar, the labels don't seem to, well, I'm not going to generalize and say the labels, but a lot of people
Starting point is 02:45:48 that work at the labels don't seem to care about that disconnect. Yeah. Because the money's still coming. Yeah. Well, what they use to justify it is metrics.
Starting point is 02:45:57 Yeah, it's a numbers thing. It's all about the metrics. It's not humans. It's numbers. Niggas always talk like that at labels. You know what I mean? Even back in the day, they always used that as an excuse
Starting point is 02:46:06 to why they're not taking steps and being intentional about actually developing artists. I know you said your son is now showing he wants to create. Are you having these conversations with him just to prep him for the changes that's going to come with the business now trying to... Long ago.
Starting point is 02:46:24 Long ago. Long ago. My son was... It's a club called the L Club in Detroit. Holds like two, three hundred kids. Like he sold that spot out
Starting point is 02:46:33 when he was a junior in high school. Wow. A bunch of kids in there singing his shit word for word. Songs I haven't even heard. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 02:46:41 So he's had his thumb... He's had his finger on the pulse of just that in general for a long time. So he's very, very seasoned. Way, well beyond his years. So me and him, we got an agreement. And that's just this. Don't ever sign your name on anything without me putting my eyes on it first.
Starting point is 02:47:01 That's my agreement with my son. That's it. Other than that, I'll stay out of your way unless you need me or unless I see you doing something so bad where I got to step in. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 02:47:11 So people been offering him deals, all of these new hybrid production manager deals. Because these kids will go to college and just hear their homeboys saying some shit, sign to them.
Starting point is 02:47:22 They'll go to a studio. Hey, you can get all the studio time in the world and all the beats you need. For free. Yeah, it's like I'm talking to my son about some shit. I'm they'll go to a studio hey you can get all the studio time in the world all the beats you need free yeah it's like I'm talking about something like your dog let me repeat some of this stuff back to you let me tell you what I think about it but that's my only rule yes don't sign nothing without me know because patience is the only thing that they you can you can bet your bottom dollar they're not gonna have patience that's just not a part of being a young,
Starting point is 02:47:46 hungry, you know what I mean? Like somebody who's in the thrill of the chase. You know what I mean? And I think that goes even outside the music business. We're just living in a microwave society
Starting point is 02:47:55 where these kids seeing instant gratification. They seeing Bentleys on Instagram and they seeing Thailand. You know what I'm saying? Like the little girls
Starting point is 02:48:04 when we was little, my nigga, you went to Virginia Beach for the spring break. You was popping. Oganose. Now the 20-year-old girls is in fucking Mykonos and Santorini in Dubai. So that's putting pressure on these young boys. And they got talking points. My son told me. They got talking points.
Starting point is 02:48:20 And I quote, yeah, because I just want to blow up, you know what I mean? Buy mom this. And do I buy mom that? And I'm looking at I just wanna I just wanna blow up You know what I mean Buy mom this And buy mom that And I'm looking at him like Nigga Who you talking about You talking about my wife Yeah who you talking to My wife don't need
Starting point is 02:48:37 She straight She straight I did that nigga Fucking talk Buy yourself something nice You acting like we poor or something I'm getting moms out the hood

Starting point is 02:48:52 stop reading the rapping handbook you can't want it you can't want it for the wrong reasons you know the universe is going to respond
Starting point is 02:48:58 to that you know what I mean you got to want it for the right reasons you know what Courtney well you married and you like did it the right way
Starting point is 02:49:04 so your answer makes sense but the niggas that didn't is like when they get in here, I'm by my own terms. Like you better please do it. You better take care of your mama. You better do it, I love mine. I love mine, you better love yours. Come on somebody got it. Yo you stupid.
Starting point is 02:49:20 Alright forget it, forget it. You're an idiot. Go ahead, you was asking about Courtney? You asking about Courtney Bell? Love Courtney. In Detroit. Yeah, shout out my young bruh. He's in Detroit doing his thing. You're an idiot. You was asking about Courtney? You asked about Courtney Bell. Love Courtney. Shout out my young bro. He's in Detroit doing his thing.
Starting point is 02:49:29 Signed a monarch. Executive producer's album. Great album. Yo, dog. One beat that y'all played, I feel like you was fucking with me. Which time? You was fucking with me on purpose. I know it was. When?
Starting point is 02:49:42 Nigga, you showed a clip Of you letting him hear this beat For the first time I felt like you was fucking with me And you played a beat That I think you did That sound like something From the slaughterhouse Old days
Starting point is 02:49:55 And then y'all rapped on it You did the hook And then he did everything else And I said oh my god Was that the last record Y'all put out Yes It's a video for it
Starting point is 02:50:04 Thank god I'm not talking to Royce I don't want to hear none of this shit You produced that Oh my God. Was that the last record you put out? Thank God. Yes. It's a video for it. It's a video for it. West Side. West Side. Thank God I'm not talking to Roy's. I don't want to hear none of this shit. You produced that. No, Alchemist. Okay, Alchemist produced that. Yeah, the conversation. Yeah, you can.
Starting point is 02:50:12 Come on, thank God. I played one of them. I played one of them. That's the one. Yeah, you played West Side. You played West Side. Yeah. Courtney, his album is crazy.
Starting point is 02:50:21 Especially the beats I gave him. Nah. Nah, that beat. Yeah, he's special, man. Nah, I like him. He's the beats I gave him Nah Nah He's special man I like him He's special He is That beat was absolutely And it seems like
Starting point is 02:50:31 The marketplace is opening up A little bit More for his His kind of Style MC It's moving a little bit I think
Starting point is 02:50:39 I think the average person Is a little bit tired Of the killing And slanging and banging. You know what I mean? You want to hear something different. Just something else. We'll never abandon it.
Starting point is 02:50:48 Yeah. Ice will never abandon it completely. I get tired of it. I don't just listen to that, though. You get tired of it? You know what I'm saying? I listen to it, but I still, like you said, you just need to mix a little something else in with it. I don't think it would be as bad.
Starting point is 02:50:58 I'm never going to abandon it. It wouldn't be as bad if so many people weren't actually dying. See, in our day. Word. That's real. That's real. In our day. No, that's real. That's real. People weren't actually dying. See, in our day. Word. That's real. Our day. No, that's real.
Starting point is 02:51:06 People wasn't actually dying. You know what I mean? It was just like, you have words on records. You know, you'll feel a way about somebody, but shooting people in the face with choppers over rap lyrics is crazy. And y'all around long enough
Starting point is 02:51:19 to see those same people at some point piece it up to really know, like, will it? Yeah, maybe a little tension. We come from that. Yeah, we come from that. They don't come from that. Dog, these little niggas, yo, these little niggas be having guns. It's the one dude Ice showed me, but he was older.
Starting point is 02:51:33 This nigga was shooting a.50 cal with a switch on it. Oh, yeah. A.50 cal what? It was a Desert Eagle. Bruh, Ice got the video. You talking about the one with the little handle on it? Yeah, yeah. Bruh. Yeah, yeah. My man make those.
Starting point is 02:51:46 The nigga was shooting the shit. The nigga, he was like this. No, it wasn't that long. It's over. It's over. Some things have never changed. Never changed. Yeah, my man, yeah, my man.
Starting point is 02:51:54 My man fabricate them. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He get them all day long. I'm getting one. I'm getting one. I believe. As soon as I can upgrade my gun license to be able to buy fully automatic, I'm getting one of those for sure.
Starting point is 02:52:04 Bruh. That shit was awesome. The dude had a 50 Cal. They not illegal. Okay, but why? As soon as I can upgrade my gun license to be able to buy fully automatic I'm getting one of those for sure They're not illegal okay What do you want to do for two reasons I want to just go to the gun range okay because desert eagles Eagles are Used to be my favorite gun to rap about because it's so big and intimidating. Shits look dope. But if you ever shoot one, you're not going to like it because it's just too much. Too much kickback.
Starting point is 02:52:31 Kick is crazy. It's too heavy. They don't shoot good worth shit. You're not going to hit nothing. You're just going to make a bunch of noise. That's why they put the switch on it now. Yes. So you put a switch on it and a little handle, and then the whole clip becomes fully automatic.
Starting point is 02:52:44 Once you make an extended clip, then you having fun at the gun range. What? You need a man to have fun shooting that rubber on them. No, no, don't shoot at nobody. That's what they gonna do. There was two reasons. What's the second?
Starting point is 02:52:59 So I can have fun at the gun range. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Gun range cubes because of my love over the years for the gun range. Yeah. Okay. There you go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Have fun at the gun range. Gun range cubes. Because of my love over the years for the Desert Eagle. Collection. In a figurative sense. But once I got my hands on one and was able to shoot it, I hate it. It's like my least favorite gun to shoot.
Starting point is 02:53:16 You know what I mean? And I'm a gun guy. Yeah. So once you put like a little handle on it and make it fully automatic, now you can have fun at the gun range. Now I can control it better. So that's a... He still can't control that shit. No, I didn't say control it. He can't control that shit fun at the gun range. I can control it better. So that's a- He still can't control that shit.
Starting point is 02:53:26 No, I didn't say control it. He can't control that shit. Don't say it. Nothing about aiming it. Ain't no controlling that thing. No, you can't control it. Nigga had to switch. That shit was like, that shit was one time.
Starting point is 02:53:36 Done. And that's what they shooting up the stores with. Riding through in a car. In a car. Like that. He ain't just going anywhere Like that shit is crazy And they getting it from the raps
Starting point is 02:53:47 So yeah It's different You say they getting it from the raps They getting influenced by The rappers More than we did And everything else in the world You don't think it's the other way around?
Starting point is 02:53:59 No some of these little niggas Is living that shit No I'm saying You don't think that the environments Are influencing the raps? Of course, a thousand percent. I think it's a marriage. I think it goes hand to hand.
Starting point is 02:54:09 I think we've always had violence in our communities. That's nothing new, right? So when N.W.A. came out, all they was doing is giving you a fucking encyclopedia on what was going on in our communities.
Starting point is 02:54:20 I think now it's being glorified a little more. Like these little niggas Is rapping about Who they killed Really giving the testimonies On who they killed Standing on niggas Gravesites and shit
Starting point is 02:54:31 Doing they videos That wasn't heard of In our neighborhoods I blame the internet for that I agree with that I blame the internet I don't blame the music I agree with that
Starting point is 02:54:38 I blame the vehicle Sure I agree with that In which you can Put the music out That's true And how many people you can offend using that vehicle.
Starting point is 02:54:48 It's cloud. I agree with that. It's like warfare. I agree. Because now it's more visible. Nigga, fuck you. Nigga's putting the score up on the album covers like, yeah, you're right. There's a little white girl on TikTok that's running around at nighttime to people's graves and cleaning them.
Starting point is 02:55:04 Cleaning the graves off. What? There's a white girl on TikTok that nighttime to people's graves and cleaning them. Cleaning graves off. They what? It's a white girl on TikTok that goes to somebody's grave late at night and cleans it off. Like really scrubs it, soaks it down. Deep cleans the tombstone. That's nice of her. Why is she doing that? For TikTok clout.
Starting point is 02:55:18 For clout. Clout. Why do they do anything today? Well, and she might have a good heart. Let me not do that. Yeah, I think it's a kind gesture. It's a good heart. It's still clout. It's still clout. It's clout. Because you had the good heart. You got the good heart, and she might have a good heart. Let me not do that. Yeah, I think it's a kind gesture. It's a good heart. It's still clout.
Starting point is 02:55:25 It's still clout. Because you had the good heart, you got the good heart. You need to have a good brain. You cut the TV off. Yeah, if it's just a heart thing, you don't have to record it. I mean, but do we say the same thing when people go give out food to the homeless and Yes, not the same thing. Yes, I do.
Starting point is 02:55:39 Don't say the same thing. It's not the same thing. I say the same thing. I say the same thing. I say if it's from the heart, you don't have to record it. Yeah, I say that all the time. Yeah, but that's not a good comparison. Why not the same thing. I say the same thing. I say if it's from the heart, you don't have to record it. Yeah, I say that all the time. Yeah, but that's not a good comparison. Why not?
Starting point is 02:55:46 Why? She's cleaning off graves. Okay, well, as somebody that just left my family's graveyard. Someone needs a cleaner. They be needing some cleaning. A little power washing will help. Yeah, but there's a lake right by my family's joint. So if any of us see you, you're probably going to go to the lake.
Starting point is 02:56:07 You probably shouldn't touch none of my family's. If any of us see you, she might have came out the lake. I'm hauling ass. That's some weirdo shit. But white people sit home and come up with these. And you all be watching the docs getting inspired. No, I'm hauling ass. I see some white.
Starting point is 02:56:20 I'm watching the docs. Some little white girl cleaning my grandmother. I'm watching the docs. I can't wait for this Nickelodeon shit to drop. Yeah. Crazy.'s... I'm watching it, dog. I can't wait for this Nickelodeon shit to drop. Yeah. Crazy. I cannot... When it come out?
Starting point is 02:56:29 This weekend? I cannot wait till Daniel Snyder Nickelodeon shit come out, but I don't want to depress the room. Can I play a snippet from a rapper that as soon as I heard, I jumped right back on their dick and probably took back everything I said

Starting point is 02:59:07 Big glow Glow Oh my god Glow Yeah that's the record That's the record Congratulations to Glow I think that record
Starting point is 02:59:15 Cracked top ten Nice Cracked top ten Billboard Go Glow But This record here It's gonna do what it need to do
Starting point is 02:59:24 Cardi B flow better Than most of the male rappers Her flow Her cadence But this record here, it's going to do what it needs to do for it. Cardi B flow better than most of the male rappers. Her flow, her cadence, all that shit be better than most of the male rappers to me. How do you feel about that, Ice? I used to say the same about Nicki. You used to say the same about Nicki? Yeah, that her flow and the way she wrote a beat, she can write a beat, fam. But to me, a lot of these niggas can't do that shit today.
Starting point is 02:59:51 That offbeat shit kind of got popular. That offbeat. I don't like that. That offbeat shit, I hate. That's why I'm like the offbeat. You like the offbeat shit? I only like the offbeat shit from Detroit rappers. But it's a different offbeat.
Starting point is 03:00:03 It's offbeat but onbeat. I don't, I never, y'all the music dudes, I never know how to describe it. It's only Detroit that it just sounds like it's, y'all rapping to a totally different beat. But it's still flow.
Starting point is 03:00:14 Everybody else, I don't like that shit. That's why I ain't like 444. Cause to me he was offbeat too much. And y'all know how I feel about Jay-Z, but I ain't like that album cause it just felt like he wasn't onbeat. That shit don't sonically sit right when somebody be rapping like that to me.
Starting point is 03:00:29 Yeah, I appreciate that. And Royce, you probably want to close that. Y'all more musically inclined than me. I'm just talking about what, as a consumer, what I hear. Hov wasn't off beat. It's just different pockets. Some of the vocals weren't as neat as we're used to hearing them over the years. We're used to everything just being so tight.
Starting point is 03:00:48 And the way that he was rapping, the actual writing part of it was a different style. Whereas before, it was more plain Jane as far as the flow. He was doing a lot of start and stop. Almost conversational sound. Like talking. But that's what I'm saying. I feel like that flow was intentional. I want it to sound more like conversation than I'm just sitting here trying to rap. And that could very well'm saying. I feel like that flow was intentional. I want it to sound more like conversation
Starting point is 03:01:05 than I'm just sitting here trying to rap. And that could very well be true. It could very well be true. But when you put it to the beat and I'm riding in my car, it just ain't.
Starting point is 03:01:14 It ain't slap. Yeah. Outside of Bam, really, for me. Off of that album. I can't tell who rapping on beat, off beat,
Starting point is 03:01:23 on purpose, or who just can't catch it. Because it's a style now, too. These niggas be sounding like they laid the vocals with the headphones on the floor. And I wouldn't be shocked. I wouldn't be shocked. Yo, feel me. I'm about to go with the headphones on the floor.
Starting point is 03:01:39 Yo, I left the vocals in there. Just go ahead and pick a beat. I ain't write nothing down. I ain't write nothing down. I ain't write nothing down. Just press play. And you hear, like, I've seen it. They do two lines, stop. Speaking of Dylan, the other two lines is talking over them.
Starting point is 03:01:55 They punching in. I'm listening to that shit, and I'm like, yo, I would hate the Layverse today. I would hate that. That shit is crazy today. You ever hear the story, speaking of Dylan, that Slum Village, he made them just record that whole album, do a click track, and then made the beats later? That's hilarious. I've never hate that. That shit is crazy, dude. You ever hear the story, speaking of Dilla, the Slum Village, he made them just record that whole album, do a click track, and then made the beats later?
Starting point is 03:02:08 That's hilarious. I've never heard that. It was in the Dan Charnas book that he wrote, I think is where it- Which album? Yo, what's a click track? Volume 2. The metronome. Fantastic.
Starting point is 03:02:17 And he just went and built beats around vocals? Yeah. That's crazy. What year? 99, maybe? 2000? So you're saying pre-Pro Tools? It might have been...
Starting point is 03:02:28 It's probably pre-Pro Tools. All we had was the Pro Tools Lab back then. Yeah, yeah. The little bullshit four track shit. So that makes him a super genius. Yeah, that's some other shit. How do you do that without Pro Tools? You know how ill you gotta be to do that?
Starting point is 03:02:40 No, nigga. We sitting here thinking y'all talking calculus. Yo, pre-pro tools. Yeah, with the click track. What the fuck is you talking about? You know what it's like? You know, like metronome. Recording with just someone doing a clap. Go away. Just a click, click, going through.
Starting point is 03:02:55 To different tempos, too. It's like getting a mortgage before seeing the house. You know what I'm saying? Now you get it. Fucking metronome. Any plans on stopping by Flex or the LA leakers and getting in your bag again? Or do you feel like, I just bodied them shits too much. I'm one of the best on earth.
Starting point is 03:03:21 All of the best rappers have said it publicly. So I'm just going to go raise my children. I may. I'm considering it. You still writing? Yeah. Yeah. I was going to say, can you stop writing?
Starting point is 03:03:36 No, but he said he don't really be necessarily having the inspiration, so I don't know how much he's writing as opposed to producing and doing all that. It's not that I'm not inspired. I'm inspired to be creative all the time. Gotcha. The raps that I come up with don't fulfill me. Like, I can plan for you.
Starting point is 03:03:52 You'd be like, that's crazy. Put it out. You'd be like, it's not it. You know what I mean? What's the longest period of time you went without writing?
Starting point is 03:03:59 Without writing? Without writing or recording or anything. Months? Months. Been months. Like, I don't, I could stop writing. I don't have to.
Starting point is 03:04:08 Even up here? Yeah. Just think of a bar. Stop. I could stop for sure. I don't need to do that, but I do need to be creative. Yeah, that's why I asked him before. I said, yo, I don't understand how, like, if you're a poet, you're a poet, right?
Starting point is 03:04:23 Y'all had that when y'all was teenagers. So I don't understand how you don't have a book of rhymes in your house this big but he explained it like yo podcasting took that creativity place for me because i could come in here and voice whatever i got a voice or let my emotions out in here you know what i'm saying so that made no it made sense no that made sense and he said i'm gonna find a creative way to do it it makes me it makes me it. It's a bunch of producing. It makes me question how much of a poet I actually am. I don't know how much of a poet I actually am because I don't miss the poetry side of it.
Starting point is 03:04:57 You know what I mean? Like, there's a void there when I'm not creating at all, but that could be in any form. Yeah, yeah, but you could have just pivoted to a different thing, created to a different form. Yeah, so if I was like locked up or something, I probably would need to, you know what I mean,
Starting point is 03:05:10 unless somebody gonna come beatbox with me. Yeah, make beats on the bricks. Yeah, yeah. But just being, you know, in the studio, left to my own devices, who knows how it'll come out. May make a beat,
Starting point is 03:05:23 may do some, I may freestyle some shit, I may fucking pull a beat up, I may just listen to come out. May make a beat, may do some, I may freestyle some shit, I may fucking pull a beat up, I may just listen to old songs. I listened to, I listened to Glasshouse Duck the other week.
Starting point is 03:05:33 Oh, wow. You still listen to it? It's been a little while, but yes. It's better than I, it's better than I remember it being. Much better.
Starting point is 03:05:40 It's a great, it's a great album. It's better than I thought. That's an album I constantly run. They gonna kill y'all for bringing that album up. Yeah. So? They're going to be so mad.
Starting point is 03:05:47 They're going to screenshot the whole thing. People are mad they never got that album. I've been killed for much less. Yeah. They kill me all the time anyway. I'm just saying. I forgot all about that. I just wanted to play this while you was up here talking all this mature grown-up shit
Starting point is 03:06:05 You just sound mature so I just want to remind you I just want to remind you Only him. Only him. Only him is going to start the record. That's my wife's favorite song. Tell them the name of the song. Gun hominizing. That's my wife's favorite song of mine.
Starting point is 03:06:41 Why don't you call her and tell her to grow up? That's hilarious what else do we need to know from Royce Lord knows we probably won't see him soon every time I oh I know what I need to ask you
Starting point is 03:06:57 give me your picks on Jake Paul Mike Tyson and Ryan Garcia Devin Haney and what did you think about the leaked sparring footage
Starting point is 03:07:03 with Devin Haney definitely definitely Devin Haney. And what did you think about the leaked sparring footage with Devin Haney? Definitely Devin Haney over Ryan Garcia. I don't think Ryan Garcia is in a mental state, in the proper mental state to even fight. To even fight, right? Mike Tyson, I don't really understand
Starting point is 03:07:19 what the fuck. What's going on over there. Yeah, and I don't want to say the wrong thing because I know I don't want to say the wrong thing cause still Mike I know I can't take him but the man is like 60 years old I'm concerned about him
Starting point is 03:07:33 getting punched in the head you know and I understand that when you when you give your whole life to the art something
Starting point is 03:07:41 to a skill set you feel like a fish out of water when you can't do it on a certain level anymore when it's out when it's out of the limelight I Talked to like some of my NBA guys former NBA guys about this type of shit. It's like It's real. It's like a depression I'm sure a lot of you know, I mean, I don't know what Mike is going through But you have to be going through something to even consider doing something like this at that age. That Netflix bag is probably big.
Starting point is 03:08:10 Well, it was just a big bag. That Netflix bag was probably big. Yeah, I mean, I get the money part of it, but... And the time. You're going to give me 10, 15 million, 20 million maybe just for this quick bullshit that we can choreograph? I think it's the glory. It's like when the battle rappers used to approach me toward the end it was like
Starting point is 03:08:27 yo can we just battle like let's let's write it plan it out together play and just do it you can't do that with boxing though not real boxer who said it gotta be I don't think this is real boxing that's the thing why is it like a sanction is this I think all of them it's not sanctioned It's not sanctioned in Vegas. It's an exhibition. All them shits that's labeled exhibition for me are scripted fights. No.
Starting point is 03:08:50 I don't think so. That's how I feel. I don't think so. That's how it feels. You talking about like the Jake Paul fights? Yeah. Tyron Woodley and all that?
Starting point is 03:08:57 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think so. Yeah, they just feel like... Y'all didn't think the Tyron Woodley knockout was real? No, I 100% think that was real. I think that shit was real. Did you see his foot twitching?
Starting point is 03:09:08 Do you see these niggas' bodies get contoured? Like, that's not fake shit. Yeah, I think you took the fake hit wrong. I don't think you play around with a hit like that. Not that overhand, right? I don't think so. That man can punch. Oh, no, no.
Starting point is 03:09:22 I'm clear. I wanted to ask you that. How do you feel about him just from what you see as a fighter? I think he think so. That man can punch. Oh, no, no. I'm clear. He can punch. I wanted to ask you that. How do you feel about him just from what you see as a fighter? Like, do you think he has a real... I think he's good. He's good on the level that he does it. I think he's great on that level. Yeah.
Starting point is 03:09:34 On that level, I think he's great. Somebody who only been training six years, he's actually great at what he does. And I like the fact that he... So far, he hasn't disrespected boxing. In my opinion. He's been very respectful about the craft and not to overstep. So that's one thing I respect about Jake Paul. You always show up in shape.
Starting point is 03:09:59 Take everything real serious and he wants to win. And you've seen his growth. He wasn't boxing like that before. Over his fights. He wasn't boxing like that before. Over his fights, you see him getting better and better and better. I like he does the theatrics, but I do respect that
Starting point is 03:10:09 after the fight is over, he is respectful, he's a gentleman, he's 100% still embraced every opponent and all that. So I'll... This fight is just... This is different
Starting point is 03:10:19 because it's Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson is a national treasure. So if he hurts him, me personally, I'm going to be mad. I'm going to be mad too. True. And I'm going to even, you know, it's going to be racial to me. Yeah, yeah. Yo, Mike Tyson is a black icon.
Starting point is 03:10:37 Who this white boy punching on Mike Tyson? Who this white boy punching Mike in the face all hard? That's going to be like when I had to watch fucking Fury and Wilder. Oh, man. That was racial for me. My man came out. The Black Panther one. When he came out in the Black Panther suit and that one was bad for black people. That was a bad
Starting point is 03:10:55 black people day. This is going to be like Ivan Drago versus Apollo for me. See, I don't think so, yo. What's your take on it? I'm watching Mike. I'm watching Mike. I'm watching Mike. He still got how many months? Four?
Starting point is 03:11:11 Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months.
Starting point is 03:11:13 Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months.
Starting point is 03:11:13 Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months.
Starting point is 03:11:13 Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months.
Starting point is 03:11:14 Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months.
Starting point is 03:11:14 Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months.
Starting point is 03:11:14 Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months. Four months.
Starting point is 03:11:14 Four months. Four months. Four months. with the niggas that don't punch back. So hitting pads? Yeah, hitting pads. But he still looked fast. When I did an interview with him, he was fucking around on speed bags and shit.
Starting point is 03:11:27 I was like, oh, he could take me. Easy, he could take me. He looked fast. All that is muscle memory. It's different. It's different. I said he's punching the pads that don't punch back. They ain't leaning on you.
Starting point is 03:11:37 They not, you know what I'm saying? So I get it, but he just looked fast as shit too. Do y'all take into consideration some of his previous fights before him retiring? Mike's? You have to. You have to. What about the interview he did after the Kevin McBride fight?
Starting point is 03:11:51 And he said it. This is not in me anymore. See, I think that. See, I think all that play. I mean, look at the joint with Roy Jones. No, that's what I was thinking. Exhibition, yeah, with Roy Jones. He looked good, but all Roy did was just move away and throw his little
Starting point is 03:12:06 jab, and he had a little hard time. Exhibition fight. We not about to try to kill each other. We got a product to sell. Let's just go in here and give them a show. I think this is the same thing. I'm going to say... He don't have no middle. I don't think he had that either.
Starting point is 03:12:21 He a killer, man. I think it's killer be killed for him. And I think this. I think that to what you were saying He a killer, man. I think it's kill or be killed for him. And I think this. I think that, to what you were saying, a lot of athletes, yo, their glory day, their heyday is when they are on top. In whatever respective field they are. I heard Chris Canty was one time. We know Chris Canty. And he was like, dog, he was telling them that this radio show might have saved my life because when I retired from the NFL,
Starting point is 03:12:44 I was so depressed and I was so fucked up that I ain't have nothing to do. And this right here, I transitioned into it. You know what I'm saying? And so it was a blessing for him. But I think Mike Tyson, whether it's Michael Jordan, whoever, dog, your glory day was that. And I think they'll do anything to relive that. I don't think so. No?
Starting point is 03:13:03 Not in Mike's case. they had to do anything to relive that. I don't think so. No? Not in Mike's case. I think that he's so ridiculously evolved from his former self
Starting point is 03:13:11 and he went through so much to get to this point and he's got so much, I mean, he was on Broadway. You know what I mean? Like, he's kind of
Starting point is 03:13:18 really evolved so this to me is just the bag. That's it. It's not anything else. It could be. When he finished that. That's it. It's not anything else. It could be. When he finished that.
Starting point is 03:13:27 Or it could be hunting for the next thrill. He don't get to go home and get with that ayahuasca, man. He don't give a fuck about that. That part. You don't think it's risky at his age? Yeah. I think that there's some level of risk, but he's also Mike. His instincts are, I think they're always going to be what they are.
Starting point is 03:13:44 Just in terms of his sense of self-preservation. Of course. Instinctively is to kill. I honestly don't think Jake Paul is going in there for that. I don't. He sat on the couch with his dad and you can see the admiration that they have for Mike. They love him.
Starting point is 03:14:02 He not going in there with the intentions of, I'm going to show the world that I can knock out a 57-year-old Mike Mike. They love him. He not going in there with the intentions of I'm going to show the world that I can knock out a 57-year-old Mike Tyson. I hope not. I think he really is just I'm going to go get this bag. Who else can I go get this big, big bag with? And on top of that, the respect of the boxing
Starting point is 03:14:16 world for me to just be in the ring with him, even if he is 57 years old. If he harm a hair on Mike Tyson's head, it's black America. It's on like popcorn. I think this is going to be a badass. I'm going chin. It's black America. Yeah. It's on like popcorn. He know that. I agree. I think this is going to be
Starting point is 03:14:26 a match. I'm going to be picking it outside your hotel room. Not many highlights in a glorified sparring match. Fuck they talking about. What? What's that on that?
Starting point is 03:14:34 What? I'm going to be at that fight with Dr. Umar, nigga. They're going to be watching that. That not hurt Mike Tyson. Yeah, I've been seeing you in the locker rooms and the backstage. You've been walking niggas out, I've been seeing you in the locker rooms, in the backstage. You've been walking niggas out.
Starting point is 03:14:48 I've been home. I've been polying, man. I've been home. Politicking. I turn the TV on. I look at Royce after I pay my little $59.99. You ain't see me talking to nobody. No, that ain't true.
Starting point is 03:14:57 I heard the Boxers go on podcasts and say, this happened because of Royce. I've heard that. I've heard that. So don't play with me, nigga. I look for the love. He's in a Lions game too, right? Saw that. Oh, wait.
