Starting point is 00:02:13 This guy is crazy. Good, good. Chemistry. Chemistry with your co-host. That's a thing up here. That's a thing up here. That's a very important thing. Hey, to who needs to hear it, I don't know.

Starting point is 00:02:27 How you interact with your co-hosts is a thing. It is. Yeah, that's all I got for y'all. All right, who's ready to rock? Wise words. Who's ready to rock? Are we starting with male-threatening bitches? Yeah, who you threatening?

Starting point is 00:02:41 Or male-threatening somebody. Is that what we're gonna start with? I wonder if that's what we're gonna start with. Some other shit. Well, before the music comes on. Oh. It's like a little pre-start. Okay, well listen, okay, I tweeted something

Starting point is 00:02:53 and it came off like a threat, but I don't think that that's what it was. That was a threat, Mel. Was it a threat? What was it? It was a threat. What did the tweet say? Something about you could get touched or some shit.

Starting point is 00:03:05 Holy shit. Well, no, let me do it because she bleeped out the word nigga in her threat. But I did say bitch ass in it. Bitch ass in asterisk asterisk a. So she typed it like a Karen. It's like, girl, if you got to do all of that, then just use a different word. And who would you threaten? They thought you got hacked.

Starting point is 00:03:24 Did they? Yeah, because they know you were pussies. Oh, shit. They know. They're like, Mal and that. But then niggas went and got the fouls. They were like, y'all know Mal used to run with the Rough Riders. I was like, no, I did not know that. You know Mal's been to jail several times, too. Like, maybe I just suppressed that part of myself a lot

Starting point is 00:03:40 because I really did not like my visits to jail. I didn't know there were such hardened criminals in the room. So openly threatened people. I didn't know that, no. I mean, I didn't put a name on it. It was, you know. Well, Ron Isley went to jail, and I didn't think he tough neither. He did.

Starting point is 00:04:01 Even though he's probably tough. Yeah, yeah. He's probably the playboy. Back in the day, especially. Yeah. And now I think he's probably tough. He's probably the playboy. Back in the day. Yeah. And now I think he'll stab you. His brother didn't get that pub back. His brother didn't run away.

Starting point is 00:04:12 No. No. No. No, he took all of these shit. All right, so what would you went to jail for? Assault, assault with a weapon, attempt to obstruct justice, intimidation of a witness. I told you guys this story up here.

Starting point is 00:04:26 I didn't know that. No, you only told us assault. I did not know that. You didn't add all that extra stuff. That's crazy. Oh, shit. All right, so the tweet stands. It stands.

Starting point is 00:04:35 The tweet stands. It stands. Oh, shit. Oh, my God. Also, I don't know who up here needs to hear this, but public threats to people. It's not good. It's also nobody's profession. Just so we're clear.

Starting point is 00:04:52 In my defense, I was, you know, I'd had a couple of spicy Margs and maybe a little bit of- Buh-buh-buh-buh. The allegations. Oh yeah, yeah. Buh-buh-buh-buh-buh. We're not addressing that stupid-ass shit.

Starting point is 00:05:04 Mocktails. No, they were cocktails. They were cocktails. I'm starting. Thank you. I don't like the word cock and tails and then silence. Spicy Margs make Melly Mouse spicy. Unless we're in the sex club.

Starting point is 00:05:22 They called you Y and W Melly. That's funny. Oh, thanks, boysW Melly. That's funny to say. Oh, that's worse. Yo, that shit is funny, bro. I like that nickname. I'd like for it to stick. Peace and love in 2020. It's not sticking.

Starting point is 00:05:34 It's not a drama. Just so you know, it's not sticking. Damn it. YMW Melly. It's such a cool fucking name. I didn't like that. What am I doing here? I'm doing... I need to get stronger. I got a free training session at my gym.

Starting point is 00:05:48 The guy threw me on the bench press right when I get there. He goes, give me eight reps. So I gave him eight. Then he goes, give me one more. Why don't you just say nine? I told him I can't do one more. And he goes, I can't? Is it in your vocabulary? I was told him I can't do one more and he goes,

Starting point is 00:06:06 I can't? Is it in your vocabulary? I was like, then I'm unable. That's definitely my vocabulary. I don't know a lot of words, so... When I was in the gym, I then went to the men's locker room, to the steam room. And if you're not familiar with the steam room,

Starting point is 00:06:33 it's a great place to start a relationship with another guy. If you're looking for that. I was not looking for that, but there's a guy in there, his name was Travis, he was looking for that. And he asked me questions, lots and lots of questions. And I entertain those questions, because I'm an entertainer. And so I'm on my way out, I'm about to leave, and before I can, Travis goes, I'll see you later,

Starting point is 00:07:00 and he waves like this tonight. Just like that. So I'm standing there, I'm thinking, like I guess I'm gonna wave back, but when I did, all that came out of my hand was this. Laughter My point is, I may or may not have a boyfriend.

Starting point is 00:07:22 Laughter Mic check, mic mic mic mic mic check The point is, I may or may not have a boyfriend.

Starting point is 00:20:00 No, it's our second language. This is it. Like how you learn Spanish here, we learn French in Canada. It's part of our curriculum. Well, we don't learn Spanish. Yeah, we do. But no, a lot of people can't. It's part of the curriculum, right?

Starting point is 00:20:10 It's an official language of the country. Right, yes. No, I gotta learn the basic Spanish. Some stuff I feel stupid pulling the translator app out for. Do you wanna say hello? Like, I should know the fucking muy bien or whatever that is. Like the basic, hey, how much.

Starting point is 00:20:27 Yeah, dinero. But don't be like, it's cold. Mucho dinero. Mucho, mucho. Cachapé. Yo. Cachapé. Y'all are in trouble.

Starting point is 00:20:38 What you got to allow him to get over it. Friday night was the start of my spy adventures There's multiple spy adventures as we get plural he's always on a spy adventure. Yeah, it's from his phone Yeah, but he actually went outside this time Don't feel too much about me. I don't feel like the audience really knows that I'm sick No, no, know that you're fine. They know. No, no, I don't think they know the degree of my obsessiveness and how it works when it's in effect. OK, we'll keep that secret.

Starting point is 00:21:14 I think you've eluded over the years. But you're right. Carry on. Yeah. Quiet. Friday night is normally my go out and thotted out night. But Ish was taking too many pictures in the streets. I mean, I'm here to tell the truth.

Starting point is 00:21:29 That's your truth. So I had to come and investigate and see what was so, what all the teeth was about. Journalism. What was the teeth? What's the teeth about? I had no idea. Teeth? Yeah, on all the pictures.

Starting point is 00:21:48 Oh, he showed a lot of teeth. He's happy. Yeah, but nah. Nah. Too much teeth for me. So Friday night, I learned on Patreon, it's just going to paddle of the sexes. Boy, I thought that was hilarious.

Starting point is 00:22:06 Why? I went last year. Wait, was it last year? On brand. On brand. We saw you last year with your nipples out at Paddle of the Sexes. The Reddit found it. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:22:18 I mean, I wasn't hiding, apparently. At the ping pong? No, what the name is? You're welcome. Anyways, go on. If I see that, I think I got a freak. Apparently. At the ping pong? No, what the name is? You're welcome. Yeah. Anyways, go on. If I see that, I think I got a freak.

Starting point is 00:22:30 I ain't gonna lie. I mean. Girl. Girl, anyway. Paddle with the sex. What? I was gonna say keep up with that fucking narrative. Mel.

Starting point is 00:22:40 But. Anyways, paddle with the sexes. Paddle with the sexes. Paddle with the sexes. I'm going to spy on Ish one, and Mel was out with a shoulder injury. But I know she went to paddle with the sexes last year. So I was hoping to catch her at a ping pong table after she told me that she was going to have shoulder surgery.

Starting point is 00:23:04 You know, the walk,'re like, I got nuts. I'm here to clear up a few conspiracies. Y'all think Mel called out because of whatever. She had shoulder surgery. Little rotator cuff. So I was going, I dare her would have played ping pong that night. But. I did, But she was not there.

Starting point is 00:23:27 I was not there. I was at home recovering. Convalescing, if you will, from my shoulder surgery. Convalescing. Convalescing, yes. Word of the day. So the real fun begins and I just get to watch Ish float around. Even better. Yeah. Go ahead. What do you think?

Starting point is 00:23:46 I mean, I don't even have a big takeaway here. It was just fun watching. What did he do? What did you see? What stood out? I would love to hear this one. I would love to hear this one. Go ahead.

Starting point is 00:24:00 Put that rapper brand in use. Did he play the whole room? Put that rapper brand in use. Canoodling? Okay, a little, because the audience don't know. Slate is from the old school. We've done Slate, we know Slate. We've been dealing with Slate forever.

Starting point is 00:24:17 So I walk in there, and I didn't plan on telling this story. I was just going to crack on it, it's floating around. But all right, fine, y'all forced it out of me. So I walk up in there, it's me, it's Corey, we got fucking Buck, Buck and Dwayne and Dirk. They all mad big. We get right to the front. They said Joe had security with him?

Starting point is 00:24:38 This is for a foundation. It's for a foundation. Great cause. The girl in the front is somebody that they got to work the front and explain the foundation and what you need to do to get in. Younger, younger girl, but really diligent at doing her job. So she got me and these four giant niggas standing here while she explained to me the process of paying to get in paddle of the sexist.

Charisse say, hey, we're gonna get you in front of this MSG step and repeat, and we're gonna get you to do the MSG interview. Sit down for five minutes and say, no. No, you're not. No no you're not at all. Nothing remotely close

Starting point is 00:26:10 to what you're saying is gonna happen. So I walked away from her and went and stood over there and everybody just had phones and videos and was recording. Constant reminder for me why I don't normally come to these types of shindig. Did you do the podcast? Podcast? Whatever the MSG interview? Okay. Okay. Well anyway when I finally go bust through the curtain Where everything is because I was at the bar at the early at the entrance when I bust through the curtain It's an arcade I'm following so far. It's arcade a good one. Yeah what they had a little basketball hoop little Street Fighter. I don't know And it was a lot of ping-pong

Starting point is 00:27:10 tables, okay Playing ping-pong. Okay. Mm-hmm. Hence the paddle. Yeah Yeah, I don't know why thought paddle the sexes meant it would be a game a featured game or to highlight it and people would be Watching that this was just a bunch of people playing. I was like a ping-pong meant it would be a game, a featured game, or to highlight it and people would be watching that. This was just a bunch of people playing. That was like a ping pong bar. Ping pong. It was a tournament.

Starting point is 00:27:29 No, it's a tournament, yeah. So you go through each and every, like. I've seen some ping pong bars popping up. That's a thing too. Anyway. Yeah. I went and stood in a corner and hid like the first corner I could find.

Starting point is 00:27:41 Sounds like you. But then the drunk girl that worked at Def Jam back in the day started talking to me a lot. And I kept peeking over there to see Ish, but Ish was standing where he could be seen over there. He was illuminating. Of course, naturally. Mad bright standing there,

Starting point is 00:27:59 light shining as hell. He didn't walk around, but he stood there just trying to have this fucking Misty Morris chestnut face And I want to walk over there and talk to him, but he right under a spotlight. It's like Always in the brightest place that you could be in the spot So now I'd never walk over there to him because that ain't my style Melvys pop up in my head,

Starting point is 00:28:25 you two are like vultures playing the opposite sides of the room. And it's like, it's not that, it's not that. It's just not, I can't go over there. I can't. So Cory goes over there, they talk, we standing for about 10 minutes. I tap Cory, give him a little sign

Starting point is 00:28:40 and we get the fuck up out of there. And that was it. And then I couldn't go nowhere for the whole Friday night because I fell asleep as soon as I got home. Because Ish fucked up my nap time going to the spa. Ish did it. Going to the spa on him, fucked up my nap time. And he didn't even come back with us.

Starting point is 00:28:53 And that was the end of that. Yeah, no. You ain't go to the spa? No. No. I was wondering. You went to the spa? I didn't get a phone call.

Starting point is 00:29:02 No, we was going, I was going, you know what I mean? So now we gotta rely on you for the pedal to sexist recap. Nah, I think it was dope. How'd you do in the tournament? I didn't play. I wasn't one of the contestants, I didn't play. It was a dope event.

Starting point is 00:29:16 Shout out to Cherie, shout out to Edgar. Cause you just, you're a monster dog. But no, it was dope. It was basically, like Joe said, it's a charitable event. We had ML played last year, so let's say it's 16 people or 30 people. And it's basically just bracket all the way down.

Starting point is 00:29:33 Yeah, bracket, and then the winners win. But it wasn't what Joe's saying, arcade. It was just a whole bunch of ping pong tables with people playing. It was a little festive. It was bright. He did come in, hide in the corner like he'd be on his normal shit.

Starting point is 00:29:47 That nigga wasn't gonna come over there and talk. Well, he might've came over here if it was dark and talked to me, but I was just standing by the DJ and Kory talked over there. It wasn't what he'd say, but. So y'all didn't talk at all on the spot? Yeah, we did. Oh, okay.

Got it Can we you walk you all go down that alley do you So listen this fool comes over to me and says yo, could you get me out of here with these regular drills? I don't want to be around the working class people.

Starting point is 00:30:25 Oh, shit. I know, I'm messing that right out of there. Don't worry, I'm out of that broadcast. That's what we do. Yo, it's too many nine to fiveers in here. I don't want to be. I'm like, yo, this guy is crazy. How could he tell?

Starting point is 00:31:08 I don't know what bridge and tunnel is. Bridge and tunnel is what New Yorkers call the people that come over the bridge or through a tunnel to get to New York to go to the after hours of nightlife. Monday through Friday and now we're going outside. The bridge and tunnel crowd. Or the ones that don't go home and change. Monday through Friday, and now we're going outside. The Bridge and Tunnel crowd. Oh, the ones that don't go home and change? I don't think they do. I know I'm not saying.

Starting point is 00:31:33 And they come directly from work? There was a time in which showing up at the club or the lounge in your business casual was completely acceptable. I heard about it. I think it's just stuck in that era. Oh, shit. Why? It was a good era. I can't it. I think it's just stuck in that era. Oh shit. Why?

Starting point is 00:31:45 It was a good era. I can't lie. I like that era too. But this shit got a little expensive. You can't tell if he... That's not what happened. What happened was we started talking, you know, we guys, we started having a girl talk.

Starting point is 00:31:59 And it's like, yo, some ice in here. And Jerome's like, get me out of this. I'm fucking like, y'all know to save my bag. Give me the fuck ice in here.

Yo, and look, he my man and he not a cheap dude, but I think he might just didn't, you know what I mean?

Starting point is 00:36:10 That day. And I ended up paying, I paid 80% of the bill. I was furious. Damn. So look, I'm dead ass. I was furious. How high was the tab? Support.

Starting point is 00:36:20 It wasn't crazy, but it was the principle. 600? About there. Okay. But I didn't know them. You get the principal. 600? About there. But I didn't know them. You get what I'm saying? So my thing was, I don't know y'all. We not conversing with y'all.

Starting point is 00:36:29 None of that shit. Y'all done talk at the table? Barely. They were just over there eating. They were too busy eating. Big finesse. They didn't have much to say because they were eating. How did they look, nigga?

Starting point is 00:36:41 Being thirsty. That's what y'all get. It's good for you niggas. I'm happy with that. For real. I wasn't being thirsty that's what y'all get I'm gonna get my shades if y'all keep this up audience. We not talking about nothing, but we stay right here You know what I was on fire. You should add mad at your man though, not them. Yeah, that's how you're mad. You mad at yourself before that too, but. Go to bed.

Starting point is 00:37:34 We already clarified that. It wasn't no M4. It wasn't, it wasn't. It wasn't whack, they wasn't five. Well, they fooled something out the nine to five a club, put them in a, organized the transport. They organized the transport they organized the transport man need to move the cake so we've organized this but so listen we

Starting point is 00:37:50 know what time so let me tell you what happened me and my man start talking man did I have one too many hey yo I know y'all ain't over there talking about the bill there's some tacky shit There's some tacky shit. I said yo chill. She's right. I said yo chill. She right on that. I said yo chill.

Starting point is 00:38:09 They all over there like nine to five. So she like no, no, no. But we really over there having a conversation like who are, niggas don't even know their names. Right? Long story. That's your man. That's your man.

Starting point is 00:38:33 They ordered the most shit? Of course they did, they saw him lick her. Yo, nigga, listen, the funny part of that is, and I said, dog, this is the shit that niggas be talking about sometimes. Did they say thank you? Yeah, they did. How did they exit?

Starting point is 00:38:48 Outside. That's worth a couple hundred dollars. Oh, they walked outside with y'all. With their doggie bags, that's how they exited. We all walked outside together. So you just say to them, like, who are you? You just say that. No, I was feeling me by that time.

Starting point is 00:38:57 It's too late at that point. Yeah, it's too late. They already got you. Feeling me. Being mad about it is really the problem. For real. Yeah, it is. You gotta just take it. You gotta be mad at home.

Starting point is 00:39:04 You have no choice but to eat it. What I'm saying is the level of entitlement, like niggas ain't reached like they was going fake pay. You know how girls do it. What's it pay? I can picture you and your man, I can see you standing there. Are the girls supposed to pay if they come out with you?

Starting point is 00:39:18 No. But they didn't come out with him. They did. They did. They went in this homeboy car. Y'all got in the car. But they got into the car. but they got into the car. Us even debating it make me feel brokered and I.

Starting point is 00:39:28 It was crazy, it's like it looks like it was a carpool situation, like can we ride with you going to the next spot? Not him, his friends. We don't know you. That's what I think it was. That's my point. So if there's simply just a carpool situation, why does that now mean, oh, you're sitting at the table

Starting point is 00:39:44 with us? That's fucking weird. Because his man was thirsty. That's why. It was dark in the pink car. Is that what that was? I don't think he was trying to fuck. He ain't got to be trying to fuck.

Starting point is 00:39:52 I think he was what the man was saying. Hold on. You can be thirsty and not trying to fuck. That's true. True. Really? Yes. Was it Uber or his car?

Starting point is 00:39:59 Oh, yeah, niggas is wowing. Was it Uber or his car? His car? This sound like the point story. Yo, but that shit was crazy, my nigga. Like, it just was the level of entitlement that somebody could come out with some strangers and eat hearty and not even remotely reach for-

Starting point is 00:40:13 If your guy put him in a fucking car, it's his fault. And you don't know this man. So, me, just my ego gonna be like, I'm not letting those stranger niggas buy me no food. I'm gonna reach for my motherfucking money and attempt to pay for my shit. You're a dude. No Girls that reach for they wallet like no, I'm gonna pay for my shit. I don't know these niggas I don't know the fibers

Starting point is 00:40:38 It's a video that just some some to some chicks on tik-tok Yes, I say it some chicks on TikTok or whatever. From DC? Yes. I seen it. And we're viral because they was complaining about the dating scene in DC talking about some, yo, we at the bar, we walking, we looking like something,

Starting point is 00:40:52 we got that shit on and nobody bought us drinks. All they want to do is stare at us. She was like, talk to us after we buy our own drinks. After we paid our tab is when the dudes started talking to us and they're complaining about it, yes. They got paid their dues, man. But what I'm saying is,

Starting point is 00:41:03 women go out with the expectation of- With no money. Yeah, I don't even saying is to women go out with the expectation with no money Yeah, I don't even need to bring those. I'm going with no money I mean well there was a point in time in which an attractive hold on because I'm No, because I'm on the side of these two chicks had should have definitely said What is our part in this bill because who the fuck are you but there was a point? You know y'all don't need to go outside To be that guy, y'all sound... Archaic. You sound crazy to me.

Starting point is 00:41:28 Which part of it is archaic? None. None of it? You put the girl in your fucking car and transported her. You are paying for her date. You are correct. Yes. I don't think so at all.

Starting point is 00:41:39 It depends on... He's right. I would like us to finish that on Patreon. Done. Okay, because I still have a lot of questions and comments about that situation. And we can play the clip of the other girls from DC because it kind of goes into the same shit. Well, their clip is four minutes long.

Starting point is 00:41:54 Oh, well. We can get the gist of it and then comment on it. Mel, you look cute in your little Target outfit. This is Aloe, bitch. Don't even try and play me. I thought that's, hold on, I thought that's a rental company. What? Alamo. Aloe. I thought you were about to say Aloe bitch, don't even try and play me. I thought that's a rental company. What? Alamo.

Starting point is 00:42:06 Al-lo. I thought you were about to say aloe vera. I thought too. I thought you said clothes too? I like your outfit. To him, aloe is Target. Yeah, I'm about to say that's still fucking right. Al-na is by the baby clothes.

Starting point is 00:42:21 Al-na. Aloe. Aloe is. That's in the middle of Target. Itna. Aloe. Aloe is... That's in the middle of Target. It's not cheap. It's not cheap. Target ain't the cheapest.

Starting point is 00:42:29 Target is cheap. How much did the outfit cost, ma'am? I mean, the hoodie was like... You buy your own drinks at the bar and then we move on. Yes. Sometimes I do. Sometimes. Yes.

Starting point is 00:42:41 Sometimes I do. We got a Yeet leak. We have a Kanye West leak. I don't know how you call this anymore. It's an Instagram drop. Oh, that might be a... It's a new category. It's not a leak.

Starting point is 00:42:53 It's probably a drop. Yeah. Let's hear it. ["A.I." by Kanye West plays on guitar and guitar plays on guitar.] Yeah, I cut it off there because I thought it was A.I. For real? Yeah. A.I.? I'm coming. Yeah, I cut it off there cuz I thought it was AI. Huh? You guys do? AI? It's a few things I'm overcoming. Yeah, this sounds like that to me.

Starting point is 00:43:13 Think about it every night and day to try to stay away to keep my heart in your tongue. Don't take this disrespect, I'm sitting here trying to redirect them. Think about it every night and day to try to stay away to keep my heart in tow Don't take this district I'm still here in a trifecta It's been a long time coming How much longer is this? It's only a minute 45 and we're 45th there

Starting point is 00:43:42 We don't gotta play the whole thing though I don't think it's like no deep dive. Is it beat drop? No. It's kind of reminding me of the old Kanye. Yeah it is. The college drop out. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:44:03 I like it musically. He go back to that. I like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It don't sound bad. Don't sound bad. I'll wait till it's done. I don't love it.

Starting point is 00:44:11 I'll wait till it's done. Yeah, same. Should make me want to go turn on Sam Cooke. Shawty Yadoh. But I do like the war going on between labels and the DSPs maybe or artists and the DSPs, but can't be artists. Meta and the DSPs, Meta and Spotify. Well isn't the fact that they're dropping on IG kind of like a step into defiance against

Starting point is 00:44:41 these DSPs? Yeah, but they can't do shit without the label. So this would be, like it could be label versus DSP or something. I don't think this is just artists saying, hey, we're gonna do something different over here. Whoever it is versus the DSP, I like it. Something needs to change. I don't think it's a test.

Starting point is 00:44:57 They're saying that Glorilla released her album D2C. Really? Let me see. I don't know, I think we should be paying more attention to this. I think I also saw Axe say that, or somebody say that labels were pretty upset about that J. Cole track, not labels,

Starting point is 00:45:18 DSPs were upset about how that J. Cole track was released. I would be surprised, yeah. Dog, I think it's a test. I think it's a test that everybody's seeing how we can circumvent them because they taking the lion's share of the bread. I would hope so. That is already in partnership with the labels though. What people aren't talking about enough is the beef that Tim Cook and Zuckerberg have.

Starting point is 00:45:37 Oh, tell me spicy. So I like this. Is this a tin foil hat situation? This is real shit. Okay. So when Zuckerberg got them little curls and shit and then went to that world conference, payment, shot the metal.

Starting point is 00:45:50 That nigga ain't gonna fuck his, shot the metal. Not at all, shot the Alvin, Marron, everybody there. That's the next territory that they want to dominate. It's the music industry. So Daniel, Spotify, Zuckerberg, Tim, they all got a little clash of the titans ego shit going on right now. So Zuckerberg has been doing incredibly well,

Starting point is 00:46:12 turned that shit around two years ago. And if everybody's on IG, why and everyone's promoting on my platform, why not circumvent and move some of y'all over here, give you a little exclusive deal, universal line some shit up. TikTok drop the ball. To the moon. Genius.

Starting point is 00:46:30 I was about to say, it sounds like the TikTok shit all over again. But we will underplay y'all, not. Yeah. And it ties into the Google Actile Trust shit because of YouTube, which I don't think will happen, but if they become publicly traded, now it's going to be Metta versus YouTube.

Starting point is 00:46:44 YouTube is going to be bigger in the TV I don't know if you saw it you can like make a real TV series and upload it on YouTube now what yeah Yeah, so it's a real battle of who's gonna run the music industry in a television industry like in the next decade You can't count Zuckerberg out man. Nah, he had their fucking big he had different type of thinker so Count Zuckerberg out man. Nah, he a different type of thinker. So, Apple been dropping the fucking ball for the last three years too. Who has?

Starting point is 00:47:09 Apple. How so? They've been re-rocking the same phone for. Oh, they've been doing that for 15 years. I don't think Apple cares. They have to. Weren't they trying to put their feet in at one point? They have to.

Starting point is 00:47:23 Why, tell me why. Why they have to care about the phone? Oh shit, I'm sorry. Go ahead. Why they have to care about the phone? Why they have to care about anything? Watch time, listen time. You guys know that shit's incredibly important.

Starting point is 00:47:38 And for the first time in our adult life, Microsoft has become more popular than Apple. People are falling out of love with the phone. Wild Way has a fucking tri-fold phone and 4K. Give me some innovation. Even the Apple fanboys are like, yo, when are we going to get something new? Ice? I said it.

Starting point is 00:47:59 I said it. Apple Vision Pro. I get 33% of all y'all's business through that through the app store Why do I care but they're trying to fight this shit? It's not enough and How long can you do that? It's not gonna sustain itself for a decade I do think they're gonna you got to come out with a new pony. Yeah that fight is gonna It's already hit you already took care of it in Europe and it Tesla may not be the one to do it But in 2011,

Starting point is 00:48:25 Metta was supposed to release a phone for free. They didn't want to do it for whatever reason. Shout out to Chamath for coming up with the idea. But let's say if OpenAI or chat GPT gives you a free smartphone, but I get to get all your data and upload it and improve our algorithms, that's gonna hurt the market share. It'll kill them. It's going to hurt. I don't want to panic when shit gets rough. I want to see whenever the client,

Starting point is 00:48:51 they said they're not gonna release a phone annually anymore. That's big. I was thinking that. Once we got to the 16, I was like, so is it gonna be like every single year so we're eventually gonna get to the number 25? You know what they say, every other year they're going to start releasing the phone.

Starting point is 00:49:06 They're going to stop releasing the phone annually. Yeah. So that's a revenue hit. Yeah. I want so much of your revenue that's tied to one product. It's tough, man. It needs some more innovation. That's true.

Starting point is 00:49:19 Breaking news, Glowrilla drops her new album, Glorious, direct to consumer and cuts out the DSP middleman leaving them feeling Some type away that from tracks this morning. I mean in a very smart move I mean artists are starting to realize they don't need a label anymore I mean a lot of these labels are farming everything out and They're just banks. So why do you need them? I mean in the DSP thing I mean you get lost in the song We talk really I want to do it be right now

Starting point is 00:49:50 So I don't know what he's talking about. I don't know what that album is 1000% on the DSP physicals were D to C That's possible Well really can't cut the label out. Yeah the label's She's I was wondering what the direct-to-consumer is like a physical album. It can be. It can be a download. You can be a download too. You can be a digital.

Starting point is 00:50:11 Rest in Peace Brownsville Kai actually who just passed away. He's been pioneering that for a while. Yeah. Rest in Peace. Yeah, that was horrible. It was. That was a really sad story. Rest in Peace Kai.

Starting point is 00:50:22 Did somebody else pass? I just heard him. Got it. That I know off the top of my head. Got it, got it, got it. sad story. Rest in peace, Connors. Did somebody else pass? I just heard him. Got it. That I know off the top of my head. Got it, got it, got it. I think everybody just testing it to see what could stick. You know what I'm saying?

Starting point is 00:50:35 We gonna throw shit at the wall if something stick, then we gonna run with it. I think everybody's really trying to get away from the DSP. I think everyone should. In this world where they're constantly evolving the algorithms and constantly evolving the pay rates, if you have a method to reach people directly, I'm doing that.

Starting point is 00:50:51 Even if you reach them on a smaller scale, your profit margin can be higher. Exponentially higher, not even close. The problem is when a lot of y'all assigned to the label who got the deal with the DSP. True. That's where the problem falls at. So you gotta get some type of leverage

Starting point is 00:51:05 to either get out of that deal, we work that deal, something to where now you got some control of your music. Because the label don't give a damn that you not making no money. We cooking over here. But even if you don't do it with the label, you gonna have to pay metal for the push.

Starting point is 00:51:18 Yeah. But if you're a big enough artist, do you have to? Yes. Like if you Kanye, I'm just saying if you Kanye, or if you Drake, or if you're a big enough artist, do you have to? Yes. Like if you Kanye, I'm just saying if you Kanye, or if you Drake, or if you Taylor Swift, and you go direct to consumer,

Starting point is 00:51:30 and you sell a million units. If you sell two million units and you Taylor Swift, I don't know what her deal is, because I've heard her deal is amazing at the label, but I'm just saying, you could potentially have the same revenue stream that you did sign with the label. But look, so we talking about with the meta situation,

Starting point is 00:51:45 like using Instagram and all of that, being that it's on my platform. Oh, you're gonna pay me. Yeah, you're gonna pay me. You're gonna pay me or they won't see it. You're gonna pay for this, you should. You're gonna pay me. We'll hide you with a button.

Starting point is 00:51:54 Yeah, it's a fact. Yeah. It's all above my pay grade. Although there is a lot of leverage though, actually. If you talk about Taylor Swift or Drake or any of these. Tray can be a major artist. If they release on meta, they might not need a cut because we're getting all the data from all the traffic

Starting point is 00:52:08 you're gonna bring for this one song or whatever. You know what I mean? That might be a loss that Facebook or whoever, Meta is willing to take. I don't think the labels are gonna take this line down, though, they're gonna come up with something. Of course. It's a cat and mouse game.

Starting point is 00:52:22 Soon as somebody, soon as something new come up, they gonna find a way to infiltrate and take it over. And you just gotta keep going. Yeah, I'm happy you got a lot of music, yo. Me too. That shit nasty, man. That shit is for this music business. Music business.

Starting point is 00:52:34 Yeah, absolutely. I wanna enshrine this fucking podcast. I feel like it's just about to be the culmination of everything this podcast has said since inception. Absolutely. Like, you could just predict when shit is about to be the culmination of everything this podcast has said since inception. Absolutely. Like, you could just predict when shit is about to get bad. I feel for the artists out there. Yeah, I do too.

Starting point is 00:52:51 Again, I do feel for the artists. Yeah, it makes it confusing too. Like if you don't know where it's going, what am I aiming for? You know what I mean? Like where does the money get made? How do, what do I do? Like yo, if you're an artist today, right, do you even know, like in any business, like if you own a restaurant,

Starting point is 00:53:09 you can say, yo, I sold this much jerk chicken, I sold this much ox-tip. Like, I know where my revenue streams are coming from, so now I'ma put more focus over here. If you are an artist, do you even really understand how you get paid? I think they just get a check in the mail or, you know what I mean?

Starting point is 00:53:24 Like, do they really understand how it is that they get paid? Meek spoke to it. Bro, forget how you get paid. They don't even know what they selling. As an artist, you get told a number from them. Which is crazy. Hey, you did this. You had this many streams.

Starting point is 00:53:39 You don't know what you doing. I put a song out, I don't know what that song did. All I know is what y'all told me it did. What y'all told me, she could have sold. They just told you. Pump it up, went gold 20 years later. That don't make no sense. Shaka Khan.

Starting point is 00:53:54 I beat Shaka Khan. Yeah. I beat Shaka Khan. I'm every woman. I'm just talking about the song on purpose about the music industry. Because if I own 30% of Spotify and got Daniel's hands behind his back,

Starting point is 00:54:05 now I can take my hands off it and say, it wasn't us, it's them, while I own that. While some of the music industry shit is falling apart. That's crazy, son. Say this, Banker. This shit is interesting. I love it. It really is.

Starting point is 00:54:19 I love it. I love it. I like the artists out there now that's trying to figure it out. Like the ones that you can see, it's certain ones out there you can see that's like, they see it too and they're like, all right, let me try to get ahead of this and get with the next movie. That's the interesting part for me to watch. But the rest of the ones who just are really just being sheep and gotta follow whatever's next.

Starting point is 00:54:41 All right, so Joel and y'all, the geek and mature bag, let's get right to TD Bank. Yes, over with all right since y'all in your geeky mature bag. Let's get right to TD Bank Okay TD Bank busted you did it. That's it's bank You left it they got you with that we're open on Sundays That shit is huge that world that work they for real. America's most convenient bank. Yeah, this was right there on Sunday. I bet it is convenient. The mob need to get to the bank on Sunday. Right after church.

Starting point is 00:55:12 TD Bank has accused them of, not accused. Not accused. It's over, they done. Proving that they have been money laundering, had to pay what, three bills? Three billion dollars. Three billies. Small fines.

Starting point is 00:55:22 Small, it's nothing. That's insane. No, the crazy part is, this the shit that, ain't nobody going to jail. That billion. Small fine. Small, it's nothing. That's insane. No, the crazy part is this, this, this shit that ain't nobody going to jail. That's the, that's the Rico my nigga. You are washing money for the cartel. Yeah. You are an active participant in a criminal enterprise. So who do they pay that three bill? The sec probably or the government some way, shape or form. Look at you ready to go in there. Who do I gotta aim these cannons at?

Starting point is 00:55:48 Oh my God. Hey, you see how she changed. The little aloe outfit. You got to keep the peace. Yo. It's the cost of new business. JP Morgan got caught with... No they didn't.

Starting point is 00:55:59 No they didn't. You're doing a lot of shadows. You got to keep the relationship intact. They didn't get caught with nothing. They didn't confess to nothing, they didn't get indicted for nothing. These niggas got convicted and had to pay three billion dollars. That's a different ballgame than being some alleged accusation. Yeah, but most of the banks have, I mean Bank of America, there was that whole thing. HSBC, there was that whole thing.

Starting point is 00:56:25 If you was the CEO of Budden in the process, and they caught you funneling money for the mafia, your ass will be under somebody's jail. Joe Budden is not breaking the law. I know. We know. I'm not doing none of that shit. You shouldn't be.

Starting point is 00:56:42 Occasionally. Different rules for different reasons. No, I'm not breaking that. But you get what I'm saying? Like yo dawg, the CEO don't do no time? Maybe it happened and it wasn't on his watch. I bet it was. Somebody's watching.

Starting point is 00:56:52 But somebody's gotta take. Somebody has some eyes my nigga. Ain't nobody. Machines did not do this. The same way that the music business has eyes, but nobody goes to jail for a lot of this shit that happens there. They don't get convicted.

Starting point is 00:57:04 Some of them got convicted. Four. This shit different. Come on man, we gonna talk, we gonna talk. No, no, no, I'm just saying three billion dollars a fine, but don't nobody go to jail. That's crazy. That's nuts to me, B.

Starting point is 00:57:17 It's costing no business, man. You try it. It's above our pay grade. But I think that sucks, me personally. What sucked more, that nobody went to jail or that them two girls got that shit off on you and you're just stupid? Which one hurt you more?

Starting point is 00:57:33 Yeah, I feel like they skimmed me. You in the club just standing on principle. Yeah. Yo, you niggas. But that's part of my realization about itch and Imani. I'm glad you said Imani was there anyway that Imani is I shouldn't go Why you said that Levels cuz it's that yeah, it's that like he liked that

Starting point is 00:57:58 Do you think TD has done more harm than the music business might not have stole more money What's that? more harm than the music business and they start more money? What'd you say? Do you think the music business in aggregate has done, I'm not taking up for TD or Cento Loa. Sounds like it, clear it up. You are, you, nah, I'm saying, no I don't think, but you gotta think about the time limit that the music business has been predatory.

Starting point is 00:58:18 That shit has been going on since the 30s. TD Bank. All my business? Yeah, TD Bank is relatively new in comparison to that. But what I'm saying is across the board, when you start talking about justice and legality, if that was anybody else that got caught and admitted to smuggling cartel money, my nigga.

Starting point is 00:58:38 Yeah. Someone's doing something every time. Somebody go to jail. Fuck is we talking about? Ain't nobody go to jail? That's just, that's crazy to me. That's all I'm saying. Like I understand the concept.

Starting point is 00:58:48 But they usually work out deals for the payout, right? So you pay us this much and nobody go to jail. They usually work shit out like that. They usually make someone fall on some type of sword. They said El Chapo, who wasn't even him, had more money than Bill Gates and Warren Buffet. He wasn't even the top nigga. Yeah, yeah, Mayo was the real one.

Starting point is 00:59:04 What are we talking about? Yeah. And it was all in TD Bank? No, I'm just saying, just imagine, no. No, I'm saying, just imagine how much money they was smuggling if they had more money than Warren Buffett and Bill Gates. You want to go to Santa right now, don't you?

Starting point is 00:59:20 You want to go to Mexico, right? One of 10. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, hey, chop off. You know what I'm saying? That's just a different type of money, yo. What's the cost of business for them to have illegal businesses here?

Starting point is 00:59:32 Sure. Straight off, man. You ain't going to do all that crying over there. All that crying you be doing. You might. You might. That was not all, nigga. Them tears might get some results.

Starting point is 00:59:42 Yeah. Oh, well, that don't happen. No, it does not. Oh, she doesn't. It doesn't. Stupid, man. Them tears might get some results. Yeah. Oh, well that don't happen. No, it does not. Oh, it doesn't. It doesn't. Stupid, yo. I'd like to hear about y'all two. But after I, because I really wanted to know

Starting point is 00:59:55 what was going on with y'all on Sunday. If I wasn't busy, I'd have drove over there to Hoboken. I'd have drove there. And just stalk the situation? You could have sat down? I'd have sat in, but. Would you have let them know you was there? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Starting point is 01:00:10 No, I'd have been at the table, but I saw enough of them. I saw enough of them. Sunday, hoboken brunch. Yeah, yeah, go ahead, I'll get the call. That's cute. You know everything that's going on. Not everything. I'd be the last to know certain things. That's cute. Yeah, you know everything that's going on. I'll get the call. You know everything that's going on. Not everything.

Starting point is 01:00:26 I be the last to know certain things. You not me. But once I find out, I do try to be proactive and be of service. Don't get quiet when I say I'm of service. Yeah. Y'all niggas don't support me enough. We support you.

Starting point is 01:00:41 You are a great mediator. Thank you. No, he's not. Now it seems like I was fishing for that. Now it seems like I was begging for the compliment. He's not a great mediator. Who ain't a great mediator? Not you. You don't believe that. To squash something? Yeah. No I don't think so. For real? I don't think you're a great mediator. No, I don't think so. For real? I don't think you're a great mediator. I don't think you put just, I think that you like,

Starting point is 01:01:07 if it was mediation from one to five as a mediator, I think you'd be like four. Oh, that's good. No, nigga, it's not. So one is good. You're saying five is bad, nigga. Oh, five is bad. I thought five was good.

Starting point is 01:01:18 One to ten, sorry, one to ten, I'm sorry. You are not. You don't believe that, you're partying right now. No, I don't think you're a great mediator. A great. You could get, with two people arguing You can get in and make all parties calm down. Yeah No, I don't think so. You don't know what to say

Starting point is 01:01:32 You don't know you don't know what to say. You just like yo, hold on Yo, yo, wait No, wait, hold on we you start looking at your head. No, that's not mediation. What's going on here? Yeah, what's going on? That's your favorite shit. He slowed down. That's your favorite shit. What's going on? What is happening?

Starting point is 01:01:49 The last time two people was arguing up here, you said, yo, just don't break my table. Yeah, just bow. That's culture. It's not mediation. Just that, you want to let niggas get in. Just that? But I'm not mad at like a quick scuffle

Starting point is 01:02:05 if nothing breaks. Quick little toss up, yeah. That's not mediation. That's not mediation though. No, because I'ma break it up when it gets. It's not mediation, nigga. After we decide who would've won, you gotta break it up a little bit.

Starting point is 01:02:17 That's not mediation, that's instigation. And Mel stormed out, I called her. No you did not. No you fucking did not, actually. I was trying to say your ass was. No, not called her. No you did not. No you fucking did not, actually. I was trying to say your ass was. No not that day. No, yeah, two days later. We watched him.

Starting point is 01:02:31 And not the next day. Definitely. But I got that. Ooh but let Mel have done something, I get a call with a motherfucking witness. We saw your phone go bing bing bing bing. I was literally like hello. Yeah, right on there, I saw your phone doing that

Starting point is 01:02:44 and you looked, and you just looked at me and got mad at me. I told Mel I was going to call her. I'm sorry, audience, but we need our little therapist today. I told Mel I was going to call her. In the text, while you up here. Yo, tomorrow I'm going to hit you. Right?

Starting point is 01:02:59 And then she said, oh, great. That's awesome, because I'm leaving the dentist at 9, and then I'm going to the dog vet So after three I should be clear. They give by 3k.

Oh, you got a script No, but Melissa ladies first Okay, what a age thing neither I don't know exactly how much everybody how much they know Well, you unfollowed me on Instagram. I sure the fuck did. I sure the fuck did.

Starting point is 01:07:29 She archived it. You unfollowed me and somebody posted, that's how I found out. Then I said, okay, she put it in there. I just wanna know, why did people go searching for that? How did they know to go searching for it? And I wanna call that out

Starting point is 01:07:43 because I feel like you've been doing this long enough to know that people search for that. But how would they know at that particular time? I just went on a whole rant not even two weeks ago saying how you still have to follow people that you have beef with. Facts. Because people are watching to see if the unfollow happens. That's a big thing. So you just was emotional and hit the unfollow on your co-worker. I knew nothing about any of this part Yeah, that's how I found out. I'm finding this out now.

Starting point is 01:08:10 I was quiet about it. I mean you mentioned that you know You threw little jokes out there and I told her that like Joe would say you can't do the same shit that you did The other day. This is the old dude cast. He was throwing little seeds and stuff But I when I went home and said, Melissa Ford unfollowed Queens Flip. What's going on? I said, huh? I went and she did, on Twitter and Instagram. Oh, shit.

Starting point is 01:08:32 Need I remind you that how you interact with your coworkers is a huge part of the gig. But go ahead. Yeah, Melissa Ford. I mean, just, okay, fine. Maybe I was slightly emotional about the situation and I unfollowed you for a second. I followed you back. No, okay, fine. Maybe I was slightly emotional about the situation and I unfollowed you for a second.

Starting point is 01:08:47 I followed you back. No, you didn't. Aw. I think I did. You're a liar, you're a liar. Okay, listen, I don't know what I was going through last night, but apparently I'm threatening people, I'm posting definitions.

Starting point is 01:08:57 A lot was going on, so I think that I followed you back last night. Got it. But I just have to check up on myself, because that was like, that was really lovely. Tell us what happened, man. You bugged the fuck out is what happened. Okay, that's fast.

Starting point is 01:09:09 You bugged the fuck out, and I couldn't even look at you, because my neck was fucked up. So I just was like, who is this motherfucker talking to? Okay. Yes. And so. Can you give them some clarity,

Starting point is 01:09:23 because bugged out, they may think that I was loud and aggressive No on this day. He was not loud He was not loud which was made it which which is what made it even more frightening. Yes. Yeah, cuz you were quiet Oh, they're gonna Karen words what frightening frightening And I have had to hear nothing but Karen words from Melissa Describing your behavior. Okay.

Starting point is 01:09:48 Well, it has insidious. See? Insidious. That's tough. Wow. You put me in a tough one, man. Yeah, it felt very dark. It was very dark.

Starting point is 01:09:58 Yeah. And your commentary was just, it was not nice. You were not nice to me. Yes. You were not nice. me. You were not nice. And so I packed up and walked the fuck up outta here. You did. What do y'all think about men who move off of hearsay? That's a good question.

Starting point is 01:10:16 Think it's a mistake, yeah. But not if it fits. That's how I feel. That's what makes it, that's what hurts. You still need some level of clarity. You gotta confirm. I'ma move over here and say if it fits. Me.

Starting point is 01:10:30 Like if I hear somebody say something that he said and it fits him, I'm gonna be mad at him. If it fits him, I'm gonna be mad. Why don't you ask first? Yeah. Because it gotta fit the character of people. No, because sometimes people can tailor some bullshit to say.

Starting point is 01:10:46 True, true, true, true. I've had people say that I said things and because it was sarcastic or whatever, it was kind of intelligent and witty, they were like, oh, I could see Melissa saying that. I'm like, but I didn't, so. I think it's hypocrisy because I wouldn't want anybody to judge me over anything as well.

Starting point is 01:11:04 I mean, it's aisy because I wouldn't want anybody to judge me over anything as well. I mean, it's just it's it's It's a thin line because I'm exactly I wouldn't want anybody to say that I would just complained about that recently So I flip her some shit in the street and got his panties in a bunch got all man. Oh shit came back Totally barked on me. That's not in bar in a loud and aggressive way, but totally got the win off on That's not in bars. Not in a loud and aggressive way, but totally got the win off on Mel, brought up some shit from the pod three weeks ago before he left, like niggas remember what happened

Starting point is 01:11:31 three weeks ago. True, I did. Like, God damn, and then charged his car up on off time at the company building while we discussed it. That's not, that wasn't wrong. I don't think that was wrong what I did. The chart, and trying to talk to you through my coffee. That'd be part of the problem. This shit is a show.

Starting point is 01:11:51 It really is. I mean, it's not to all the homies, just like, yo, flip, you shouldn't have did it at the job. If you had a problem with mail, you should have pulled it to the side. I didn't take it to the side. I didn't argue with anybody. I said I accepted.

Starting point is 01:12:03 I mean, especially Michael Paul made it work because he's so sophisticated and shit. He seems so disaffected. What did he do? You did that in front of company. Michael Paul was it? Yes. Sitting right between you guys.

Starting point is 01:12:15 He was like, oh God. He said, you know, I can't judge you, but it's just the way he started talking and it hit my soul. I said, Michael, I understand. He hit my soul a little bit. You do things different, right? So I know when you're upset,

Starting point is 01:12:30 because you have this look on your face, you start to turn red, but then you try to play it off for the camera, you're good at that. Who? You. Me, okay. Yeah, but every once in a while you'll give me the look,

Starting point is 01:12:39 like when your phone was going off buzzing with Melissa, I don't know why she would text you during the part, but your shit was going off. You said, you motherfucker. Like you just, you just, it was human, but you handled it well. And it goes back to the point who I think is a better mediator, I would have to say, Imani is. Why?

Starting point is 01:12:56 Because even during that segment, he was like, yo, Flip, you was wrong. You shouldn't have did it like that. I wouldn't have done it like that. And he gets into details to try to break things down in the moment. Imani is a great mediator. Yes.

Starting point is 01:13:07 Imani is a great mediator. He was like, yo, that was wrong. I don't aspire to be the level of mediator that Imani is. So we're clear? Got it, got it. Never. You know what I want to talk to him? Just know I don't aspire to be that level of.

Starting point is 01:13:20 Corey is a bad mediator because he insults you. Yo, nigga, that was some bitch ass shit. Fuck out of here. Cory, chill, nigga. Like, nah, you niggas is emotional. Fuck out of here. That's how Cory talks. I like that you got all variations of everybody.

Starting point is 01:13:33 No, I did. I mean, because you know, I know when you like to leave it, no disrespect. You think like everybody was on your side. Oh, that's nice. They was. I appreciate that. Nobody, they understood my frustration. They were just like, you should have spoke to me. They was. I appreciate that. They understood my frustration.

Starting point is 01:13:45 They were just like, you should have spoke to me. You had seven hours, motherfucker. Yeah, I was quiet. Seven hours to pull me aside outside and say something to me. That was why I wanted to punch you right in your face. And they just left the pedding farm. Not real. That's what the funny part is.

Starting point is 01:14:02 Fucking kissing goats and shit. Don't go to the pedding farm and be best of friends feeding goats and rabbits and then come here and do that. And that's the last thing I know is that- Act like this is the petting farm. Like all that friendly goo goo gaga bullshit that y'all was on. Do that here. Don't come here and fucking, oh my lord, yo, y'all trying to give me high blood pressure.

Starting point is 01:14:25 The doctor came in and told y'all niggas my blood pressure. Yeah, well. So anyways, we worked it out over the weekend. We had Ian as a mediator. Ian Schwartzman, not Ian Dunlap, but you would have been fantastic. Ian wanted to, you know, Matt was saying some crazy shit. Ian Dunlap wouldn't have been a great fucking mediator.

Starting point is 01:14:45 You think so? What? Yes he would. Oh please, he just cool with all the ops. And he cool, so you can't say nothing to him. What ops I'm cool with? He ain't mediated nothing with none of my ops. I tried. You don't want to hear nothing from him.

Starting point is 01:14:58 Probably and privately, you know that. No, it's up for life with those failures. Fuck is you talking about? I don't want to mediate nothing nigga. Anyway. Okay, anyways. Well, the other Ian, Ian Swartzman, he mediated. Yeah, he wanted to laugh at a couple of things

Starting point is 01:15:14 Mel was saying, because Mel is funny. When she gets emotional, she starts saying some, she turns into a white woman for real. It turns into a white woman, but we got through it. I'm glad y'all are, I'm glad. Good, good. Thank you, we pieced it up. And you know, he said that I will not be getting

Starting point is 01:15:34 kicked to the curb, he said that he feels that, you guys got some things you guys are talking about, Ian and Joe feel like I'm trying to get fired. Paul. So they said they're not giving into that request. where Ian and Joe feel like I'm trying to get fired. So they said they're not giving into that request. I have to do something violent. Well, I did say that if I were Joe and Ian, I would make anger management courses mandatory for you. Yeah, yeah, you said that.

Starting point is 01:15:59 Oh yeah, I'm white, she is. What the fuck? Does anybody agree with that? Ian agree with her. She's white. She's white too. It's okay. It's okay.

Starting point is 01:16:13 It's okay. All right, so I'm glad that you guys made up. Thank you. We need to cast, you know, everybody. Group hug. No, okay. Yeah, y'all just hug. Yeah, we're good.

Starting point is 01:16:31 She's the type of parent that keeps a kid away from you. Don't go over there. Don't go to your car. That's the worst. To the police come. But people were thinking that my threat was towards you. I love it. I thought it was too, honestly.

Starting point is 01:16:42 I love it. It was fucking hilarious. We had a conversation, it was great. So wait, why did you tweet threats? I don't know, because it popped up on my timeline, I just wanted to tweet that. Okay, you guys. Okay, sir.

Starting point is 01:16:55 Got it. Wanna get into Sam Mitchell, Dox, and Homeboy live on air? That was funny. That, speaking of professionality in the workplace. Well, homeboy was playing with him. He shouldn't have played with him. Now, I saved this clip 90 million times, so let me find the right one.

Starting point is 01:17:11 It was like three different. Oh, yeah. See, there we go. There we go, because you played with him. Yo, niggas got to be careful of making inappropriate jokes at work. True. Agreed.

Starting point is 01:17:20 Yeah, don't say. Especially when you're on air, like, live. What that mean? What that mean? What that mean? Nigga, shut up. You think I make inappropriate jokes at work? You do, too. You think it, too.

They just got some wave, too. Wait, wait. I need to meet the hos. I need to meet the hos. I need to meet the, y'all want to hit me? Wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait, wait.

Starting point is 01:18:06 Sam Mitchell, I ain't breaking the tables. Sam Mitchell, he shouldn't have made this joke. This is inappropriate to make your coworker live on air, but go ahead, let me let him get his shit off. What do you think about the fact that Steve Curtis is the coach? Yeah, I saw that. The coaches don't get up medals, I guess. It just tells you what the...international, how they value coaches. Not at a medal, I guess. It just tells you what the, international how they value coaches.

Starting point is 01:18:27 Not at all. I'm surprised. How the coaches don't get a gold medal. I'm surprised coaches get a paycheck for this show. You know, I think like, maybe you should do this pro bono, my friend. You know, last time I looked at my check is pretty close. So hey, I'm taking donations.

Starting point is 01:18:41 Why don't you come up off some of that money you got, since you over there bragging about me. I'm not bragging about you. Well, I mean, yeah. Why don't you come up off some of that money you got since you over there bragging about it? Sorry did you rent your beach house out down in Florida doing the hurricane Let's talk about it. Do I need to go on? How about your townhouse over over at Buckhead? Hey, what's going on? I Was even broken hungry. Let's just see it I know what you're having where you live young fellow. So you need to say we have snitches on the show today No, we don't have snitches. We have Sam Mitchell. We have truth. Tell us Sam. What do you think about you're the one? who crying poor destitute up here when

Starting point is 01:19:22 Do I need to keep going on further more and more? Go to this game up here when do I need to keep going on further more and more? Or do you want me to stop right now? How about we go to this game between Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors? Wait, you're gonna stop messing with me on national TV. I done told you about that. See, we talked already. Hey, do I need to give out their dress? Because you're not at home right now.

Starting point is 01:19:39 Look at this. Look, they cut to the screen. A game in Seattle. Yes! I miss that place. They should They should all they still have an NBA team I love Seattle one of the best NBA cities ever they won a championship the fact that they do not have a team I don't understand it that needs to be an NBA team. Well for tonight they history of championships and now tonight they We haven't heard about they they they calling from the good fight That's crazy. That's insane. You gotta leave people the fuck alone sometimes. Did he get in trouble for that?

Starting point is 01:20:26 We haven't heard about it. They're calling for him to get fired. They're trying to clean it up. People are calling for him to get fired. Look at the address. Is that his real house? I don't know. He said that's his rental property.

Starting point is 01:20:37 Uh oh, Flip investigates. There you go. You gotta go to Florida. Stop, stop, stop. Hey. What do y'all think about this? I think that Do Chris was completely out of line. I think so.

Starting point is 01:20:49 And when you got checked. When you started. I think Doxin is wrong though. Doxin is fucking insane over that little criticism. Yeah. But look, it depends on, that might've just been the straw. Cause he said y'all,

Starting point is 01:21:00 I've asked you time and time again to chill out, trying to embarrass me. Playing with me. You get what I'm saying? So stop playing with you get him saying so stop playing And also the age difference to like a different sign of disconnect Oh, the niggas don't care when you older you don't care. Yeah, you know you not some older niggas don't tolerate So that was a disrespect. I don't think homeboy is familiar with Sam Mitchell's game at all For Vince Carter, oh not familiar either. Sam Mitchell fought Vince Carter. Oh, he fighting niggas?

Starting point is 01:21:25 Sam Mitchell has a reputation. I don't want to say what the rep is cause I'm unsure of it. Just an old head, hard nosed dude that day on play that shit. Like you can't say certain shit to some of these old- And should that nigga say today, these young kids say today?

Starting point is 01:21:40 Man. And honestly, if I'm Sam Mitchell, right? Like just listening to the context of what he's saying, I don't know this Chris dude from a hole in the wall, but it sounds like he got the bulk of the budget and Sam Mitchell did not. So for you to make that joke on air, when I was referring to coaches

Starting point is 01:22:01 and how they're viewed internationally and how we should be getting paid when we're not, for you to say, I'm surprised they paid you for this show. Shit. He said that? Yes. That's what he was saying. That's what the dude said.

Starting point is 01:22:13 I'm surprised coaches get paid. You should be doing this pro bono. You should be doing this for free. Yeah. Oh yeah, he turned up on them. He turned up. But you can tell, and again, you can tell, yo, I warned you before.

Starting point is 01:22:25 That's the thing, he didn't just jump out the window. That old nigga would fuck that young nigga up though. You could tell, you could tell. He not even playing with him. Oh, it's not over. Yo dawg, when the old hat niggas start pointing at you, they'd be one step away from throwing that hook. The niggas start.

Starting point is 01:22:39 Sometimes people, I guess when you older, you have a lot more patience, you can tolerate more. You appreciate the situation that you in or the gig, but you can take but so much. Old head niggas don't be having the patience. Yeah, it's the opposite. And I am against Doxon. Yeah, I think he went too far, but.

Starting point is 01:22:57 He wanted to show the nigga, you ain't gonna do nothing if I put your address out here. You ain't gonna do nothing, he punked him. Or just stopped. I'm prepared to go where I need to go. And you're not home right now, you at work? Niggas said you're not home. You said you're not home.

Starting point is 01:23:11 That shit is a little foul though. If something happened to his house, then what? Yeah, that shit's foul. Who becomes responsible? See, but that is real doxing. I think sometimes the definition of doxing be even unclear. Too loose here, yeah.

Starting point is 01:23:23 Right, like? I didn't even know what that meant. Doxing is when you put Too loose here. Right? I didn't even know what that meant. Doxing is when you put somebody's address out there. I didn't know it. Phone number, phone number. Job address, any private information that you make public. It's a crime though, right?

Starting point is 01:23:36 Isn't it a crime? It's a crime, but I mean, who about to go through all of that, unless it's to that nature. If you put my address out on TV, then yeah, I might follow up on that one. But this other shit? It was a live broadcast? Yeah.

Starting point is 01:23:52 OK, I was wondering why they didn't edit it. What? What's the station? I don't know. It was NBA TV. Oh, OK, got it, got it, got it. Like, because it's going on like a halftime of the game. Got it.

Starting point is 01:24:02 It's like shit like that. So they'll be giving a commentary. Have any of y'all ever been doxxed? Yes. No. Nigga. What? I've been doxxed.

Not just that, that goes into why people always ask that question, why do the rap niggas or the entertainers fuck with the same couple of women? Because they know they don't talk. That's a good point.

Starting point is 01:31:45 They hold it down. Good call back, yes. That's a really good point. That's very good. It's hard to find the real ones. RJ, pay up. Yeah, pay that up. Pay up, buddy.

Well, it's your job to keep up the fight. Listen to this fucking defensive nigga. I don't believe that you actually changed your time. You shared this shit before.

Starting point is 01:33:58 The best apology is change behavior and it's gonna take me a minute to see and assess. She won Toxic Avengers. Y'all are all talking over each other, by the way. For real. change behavior and it's gonna take me a minute to see and assess who this is. I love it, Shea. She won Toxic Avengers. Y'all are all talking over each other, by the way. For real.

Hey, do y'all judge people that, oh my God. Come on, let's talk. Y'all judge people. The answer is yes already, but go ahead.

Uncle E and Star, we all went out to eat, and I started, I was young, nigga, like 2009 or whatever, 10, and I said, yeah, who's gonna pay for what? Nigga, everybody pull me outside, nigga. We don't do that where we from, and I never did that again.

Starting point is 01:36:34 We don't do that, we don't ask about paying the bill, nigga. If you got it, you got it, if I got it, I got it. It's a tough lesson to learn, man. No, that's a real home lesson. He pulled me outside, what's that shit called? That restaurant in Harlem? Sylvia's. He gets a Venmo What's that shit called? That restaurant in Harlem? Sylvia's.

Yo, bitch, what you did over there? How does he know how it look? This nigga is nuts. Jokey, that's crazy. What was we talking about? The bill. The bill. One fish, two fish, and Mel being outside.

Starting point is 01:38:00 The nigga that you paid the bill with. We're talking about Splatoon. That was on a hot date, y'all was on a hot date and didn't know it somehow. But you gotta get mad at your man, it's why. No disrespect to your man, he paid 80, not that he went half. If he went half or a little more, then it's not a ball. How do you even get to the 20% if these are your joints?

Starting point is 01:38:20 I know. True. Yeah. I think that he realized it was ugly when they got in the light. Yeah. That's the worst. That was an awkward one. He was ugly when they got in the light. Yeah, that's what it was. It wasn't ugly. It wasn't ugly. It was a trick on the spot.

Starting point is 01:38:28 You bitches is tricky. Son of a bitch. It was. It was. They wasn't ugly. They wasn't. They was. You bitches is tricky.

Starting point is 01:38:35 Because there's some girls that can pull it off. Yeah. Some niggas not letting you down. They pulled it off. They pulled it off. They only pulled it off because he live on principles. If he was a nigga like me. Y'all like, hold up.

Starting point is 01:38:45 I told y'all that principle shit is ass and there's some places that you're not supposed to stand on it like the club. Joe, you would have paid for that whole shit, Joe. Of course I would have. You would have never, you would have paid for the whole shit. You know what your card is. That wouldn't have been,

Starting point is 01:38:57 we would have been getting out of there. We not gonna debate my principalities right now. But I'm just not gonna play with homeboy like that again, but that's good for H2. Being a little hangout man with his man. No, but typically it's my man, he don't do that. Yeah, that's what H says. Like I'm telling you, we go out, he be like,

Starting point is 01:39:13 yo, I got it. But how do you know if your man fell in love part times and can't do it? That's a possibility, and if that's the case, then you can communicate that. What did he say to you before he gave you the bread? This is my thing. What did he say afterwards?

Starting point is 01:39:23 H, I don't got it like that right now. Nah, cause he'll tell me that. Oh. Yeah, he'll be like, yo, I ain't got it. So the bill came, he say to you before he gave you the brain? This is my thing, what he say afterwards. You wish I don't got it like that right now? Nah, cause he'll tell me that. Oh. Yeah, he'll be like, yo, I ain't got it. So the bill came, he looked at you, you said you ain't know the tricks, what happened? And he said, I don't know him either. No, but what did he say?

Starting point is 01:39:33 Y'all saw the bill, this too many, we gonna bust it down. Ian Dunlap is good at math, what's 20% out of 600 ish, Ian? 30 dollars. I mean, 20, 12 dollars. Hold up. I'm sorry. What? That is, what the fuck? That math is bad. That's terrible math. I mean I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Oh, that's kind of... Oh my God. Let's see, let's see. I want to congratulate Chauncey Billups

Starting point is 01:40:09 and Vince Carter, Basketball Hall of Fame. Oh, that's fine. Yeah, they did. Along with Doug Collins. There he is. Along with Doug Collins. Real big news. Really deserving crew, so shout out to them.

Starting point is 01:40:20 That's a good dude. Who else was it? Doug Collins? Doug Collins as well. Gotcha. Yeah. I wrote this, it's not important at all. I was just shocked that there's a new Madlock and she's a good dude. Who else was it? Doug Collins? Doug Collins as well. Gotcha. Yeah. I wrote this, it's not important at all. I was just shocked that there's a new Madlock

Starting point is 01:40:28 and she's a girl. A woman. It's Kathy Bates. Yeah. Yeah, shout out to my girl, Sky Marshall. She's on that show. I used to hate Madlock as a kid, man. All the old people used to watch that shit.

Starting point is 01:40:37 I love my show. My mother used to watch that shit. I used to watch that shit. You used to watch that shit back in the day? Yeah. I watched Madlock religiously. Joe, Madlock was in it, son, as you got older. Niggas liked it. I absolutely loved Matlock.

Starting point is 01:40:46 You've been on the Murder, Death, Kill for a long time. Such a good show. I could argue that a lot of these crime shows kind of stole Matlock's sauce. Sauce, they did. Really? In terms of the way he solved the crime. The way they solved them.

Starting point is 01:40:58 Yeah, that's what I watched. The last two minutes. Hey, he dragging that to the last two minutes. He gonna see the hairpin on the floor connected to something earlier. He was wearing an earring. The earring was missing. I noticed such a such a such a Manlock was ill. I didn't know. Manlock is him. I used to hate it as a kid. My mom used to watch it. I hated that shit. My grandma used to be

Starting point is 01:41:16 watching Murder She Wrote. Get that shit out here. Manlock is on. So, did you hear the theme song? The song come on, man. So let's hear the theme song. The song come on. My heart is finishing off. Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da. I hated that shit, bro. And I thought I was a genius when I told a producer, yo, try to flip this matlock for me.

Starting point is 01:41:34 Yeah, yeah, fuck y'all. Let's see what else is important or unimportant out there. Life Jennings says that he tried to do a tiny desk. Tiny desk says that he is not a big enough act to do tiny desk. That's not fair. Where does everybody stand on that? That's not fair.

Starting point is 01:41:48 They've had smaller artists on there a bunch. Like? I'll bring it up. I don't know off the top, cause I go to look at them, like I don't really know what that is. In like, R&B or something?

Starting point is 01:42:00 How many records has Gen had? Or like in another genre that you just might not have been familiar with. No, that Life Jen's album was amazing album classic album Right there hood classic right? Yeah, it's right. It's right. Sure Classic and I love like I said, it's right there. I said it's a hood classic that that first life Maybe I won't argue that but classic I don't know and maybe the smaller acts that did tiny desk cuz I'm sure Parks is right about that

Starting point is 01:42:32 Maybe they were relevant current smaller acts that may be true like life is from my day Our day when did they go away for a while? Life yeah, but I don't think he ever returned. Yeah. Where? Because he just went on tour. Or he's on tour currently, I think. But not just that, when did those smaller acts do it?

Starting point is 01:42:53 Like, what Tiny Desk was then, and maybe now. No, they're still, I don't want to sound like I'm shitting on nobody, so I'm not going to call out their names. But there's a bunch on here that they have 8,000 views. You know what I'm saying? They're not the biggest of artists. But were they like artists that had something kind of going on at the time?

Starting point is 01:43:10 As someone who keeps tabs on shit outside of even hip hop or whatever in the music industry, I'm not familiar with a lot of these artists. And some of them I am familiar with, it's like they don't really, I don't know how they got up here. No disrespect. Got it, got it, got it.

Starting point is 01:43:22 I'm on the fence, I'm on both sides of this argument. I do agree. I think Tiny Desk has had smaller acts and let life come up there. That platform looks like life. Live band, a guy that could really sing. And he's got enough music to where, if you're unfamiliar with some of these,

Starting point is 01:43:39 maybe you gain some new audience. Now it could be a situation, I'm sorry to cut you, it could be a situation where maybe it just didn't come out the greatest and they just use that as an excuse. You think they taped it? He made it sound like he reached out. Now on the other side I do think that, I do think that companies reserve the right to run how they feel like running for sure or on that side They do a great job over there. Well, just evaluate the return. It's a lot of artists that be trying to come up here and

Starting point is 01:44:13 Yeah, I mean it's no nice way to say it mm-hmm, but no you're not big enough to come up here You either got to be big enough to come up here, which I don't want to sound like that's that part of the criteria. So, or you got to be liked, or people got to want to get, we got to want to know you, want to get to know you, like your song or something like that. But other than that, I'd rather pour into my cast than pour into one of y'all out there. That's just...

Starting point is 01:44:41 Hey, it's one we're overlooking too, that it could be with life. And not saying this is the case, but he could have pissed somebody off. True. Because this is a relationship. This is what it sounds like. And that's just an excuse that they gave him. But whoever we got a relationship with

Starting point is 01:44:57 might not fuck with you. I ain't going to front. This don't even sound like how Tiny Desk would turn you down. Right. Unless what you're saying is kind of accurate. It could be somebody on your team. It could be, because you'll have somebody up here based on a relationship.

Starting point is 01:45:13 You know what I'm saying? Skane call you or somebody call you that you. And it got to be a relationship. That's home team. And it got to be some type of relationship. You know Skane called me the other day about something I do it. I love dollar his wife and Gabby. Oh, let me see. Let me see. Let me see. What else? What else is important or unimportant life Jennings are goes out to you. Hopefully you do get there Yeah, what else is important or unimportant?

Starting point is 01:45:43 We never talked about it. Kendrick Perkins having his NIL deal company. And I wanted to get your thoughts on it. That's amazing. You say it's amazing. That's an amazing concept. Alright, for those who don't know. You know the college athletes can now sign a name, image, and likeness deal.

Starting point is 01:46:01 So Kendrick Perkins is starting a company where basically I'll give you an upfront amount for a piece of your, was it all time earnings? Yeah. Wow. Where is he from? Texas I think. He was a basketball player. No I know who he is but where is he from?

Starting point is 01:46:22 I don't know. I have no idea where he's originally from. That's smart. I mean, it depends on what the splits are too. It depends on the splits, but it's like, we talk label talk sometimes. Is it in perpetuity? Like forever?

Starting point is 01:46:37 That I'm pretty sure to be in whatever deal y'all make. So it could be, it might not be. I don't know for sure don't know what's the problem this is the thing I used to be for because we touched on it before I'm pre-part and pre-pod they were saying it was kind of a predatory predatory I think it just depends on the terms I think it depends on the actual athlete like I think the money matters. I think that when somebody puts out their money for a product, they're the person that's taking the risk.

Starting point is 01:47:11 So if I'm prepaying you for whatever, you can break your leg, I don't get my money back. Or you cannot produce and I don't get my money back. So I think it's 50-50. It's a way to look at it. As long as there's big money somewhere someone's gonna middleman it. It happens everywhere in every field damn near so it's unsurprising. It's unsurprising and it's not necessarily predatory. It could be great for the

Starting point is 01:47:38 It's a case-by-case basis. Absolutely whatever you negotiate honestly. And if you get some talent that isn't maybe as known It could be a great that might have a good idea Yeah, it really depends like everybody not Angel Reese everybody not Shadoor Sanders everybody you know understand this some smaller cats that might go to some smaller D ones That could use a hundred grand that could use 200 grand and you could potentially bring smaller mark use a hundred grand. That could use two hundred grand and you could potentially bring an advertising dollar that they would have never gotten. And now because I put them together like Steve Stout said. Steve Stout says he's taking the artist and he's taking the advertising and combining them.

Starting point is 01:48:17 Yeah. So I think, you know. Has there ever been a player under the radar that ended up killing it in the NBA that was under the radar? A million people. Ended up being a star. People go undrafted and end up being. A star? Yeah, shit, the Joker. The Joker's won the MVP three years in a row.

Starting point is 01:48:34 Was a second-round pick. Same with football. Same with football. Same with football. So it could work out for Kendrick then. It could, yeah. It could. It could.

Starting point is 01:48:43 What do you guys think about Kamala Harris trying to appeal to the black vote, the black male vote? I think it's smart, maybe a little bit too late. I think it should have been done a lot earlier. Shout out to her and Biden. How long, but this has been a very short campaign. You wanna pull up the points or whatever the shit is that you had said so we're not just talking out our ass.

Starting point is 01:49:03 I think what Obama has proved, I think even in the last election, what has been proven is that the black vote is really, it really matters. Like again, until they counted all the votes in the urban Atlanta area, until they counted all the votes in the Philadelphia area, Georgia and Pennsylvania, which are two swing states, were still up in the air.

Starting point is 01:49:25 And when they started counting all those votes in the inner city, that shit won Georgia and won PA. So I think that their teams should be instructing them to appeal to us. I have the policy that they're looking to create. Says to provide one million loans that are fully forgivable up to 20,000 for black entrepreneurs and others to start a business.

Starting point is 01:49:48 Support education training and mentorship programs that lead to good paying jobs for black men, including pathways to become teachers. Protect cryptocurrency investments so black men who make them know their money is safe. Launch a national health initiative focused on the illnesses that disproportionately impact black men. Legalize recreational marijuana and create opportunities for black Americans to succeed in this new

Starting point is 01:50:14 industry. I think it should have been launched in August. So you're saying it's just too late to do it now? It may be kudos to the White House. You've been incredibly gracious to me and kudos to you. When did her campaign officially start though? I think that she got thrown into the fire. Yeah. Had to scramble to work shit out. And now some of these things are just settling.

Starting point is 01:50:35 So now we put in some new initiatives out. I think when did Biden drop out? When? June or something? It was the summer. I'm just saying it was the summer so I don't know exactly. It was late. So I don't know if they could have. She didn't have enough time. Yeah they was gathering their thoughts basically and Biden dropped out July 21st. Yeah so I think it should have been launched in August. You think because the women demographic she had on like that day that they made him step down.

Starting point is 01:51:00 Sororities went crazy and raising cat and dog. Yeah yeah the murder. So the black male vote is needed. And because a lot of men are leaning towards Trump. A lot of black men are leaning towards Trump. I think they should have been attacked a lot really good though. Do you think maybe they didn't count for that? Like just out the rip? I thought they probably thought they were going to have a black male vote. Yeah, they're just going to sweep the black male period.

Starting point is 01:51:20 I agree with that. What you think? I hope it works. Yeah, me too. I'm not paying any mind because my vote is already made. I vote my, so. Gotcha. How did black men vote in the last two elections?

Starting point is 01:51:32 The Trump, the one that Trump won and then Biden? A lot of men silently voted for Trump. A lot of black men voted for Trump. And now in the polls, black men are leaning heavily Trump. I mean, not probably not the majority, but he's getting a nice portion of the black male vote for the polls, black men are leaning heavily. I mean, not the majority, but he's getting a nice portion of the black male vote for the polls. And I know friends of mine, like I argue with one of my niggas, damn near weekly, he did seven years in jail.

Starting point is 01:51:54 He just came home, he been home not even a year. And when I tell you he is pro-Trump on a different level, it's a different level. So, you know what I mean? Hood dudes, they really fucking with Trump. So, it's gonna be interesting to see how it ends up. Race is gonna be a lot tighter than we initially thought too. It's gonna come down to wire.

Starting point is 01:52:12 Your mind made up? Yeah. I won't ask, I feel like it's invasive. And you got a few more months of trying to get that Trump money or the other side's money. No? No matter what you got. That's a wrap. I got a question for you too.

Starting point is 01:52:26 Hold on, just to answer your question. From 2020, this says most black men supported Biden, but overall Democrats have noticed that they've been losing black male support since 2008. So it's been dwindling. Yeah, they kind of should have looked at it from a point. Go ahead, Flipme. Question. All right, I could. Yeah, done with this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, I had of saw that coming. That should have lived on some point. Go ahead, flip me. Question. All right, I could.

Starting point is 01:52:45 Yeah, done with it? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, I had a question for you. I stay out of your business over there in that world that you're in. What is it called? Finance world? Finance, financial literacy.

Starting point is 01:52:57 I only do financial literacy. Oh, whatever, I'm sorry. I do investing. Pardon me, you do what? Investing. Investing. How do you deal with the attacks that some of your counterparts get?

Starting point is 01:53:10 How do you deal with it? Because you seem like a nice guy, very humble, and very knowledgeable. And when you see these things and the attacks, do you feel like you become involved in it? Are you involved? Do they group you up in it, or you just? Yeah, sometimes I get lumped in,

Starting point is 01:53:22 but the thing that I always try and tell people is like, if you're consistently hearing the same message, there's truth in it or you just? Yeah, sometimes I get lumped in, but the thing that I always try and tell people is like, if you're consistently hearing the same message, there's truth in it. So even when, if a bunch of attacks come, I'll get on the phone with some of them content creators and say, well, what should we do different? He got the clipping me up, he done laughed. Hey, what you think we need to do?

Starting point is 01:53:44 Because a lot of times the truth is they want to be friends too. So if I can get the consult, to me, a hater is the best consultant you can ever hire. I got a document 40 pages long, every criticism of me. God, really? Who compiled that? Me, him.

Starting point is 01:54:01 That nigga's a meticulous too. I do know that. That nigga's a nutcase. I do know that, but he also has a team, so I just. Yeah, so if you're loving enough to tell me what I'm doing wrong, I'ma jot that shit down, thank you. So I'll be more humble, more gracious, more kind.

Starting point is 01:54:17 What you guys think of that? No, that. What do all of you think of that? His approach, all of y'all. Each and every one of y'all, not you, Ice and Barks. What do y'all think of that? His approach, all of y'all, each and every one of y'all, not you, Ice and Parks. What do y'all think of that? That he writes it down? Anything?

Starting point is 01:54:30 I think it's a crock of shit. You've seen me do it. It's not a trick question. I'm just wondering why not Ice and Parks? He just smooth with answering questions. I'ma get you better than that. Because they not, Ice and Parks ain't y'all three. Whatever that means.

Starting point is 01:54:44 I mean, of course, is it frustrating? That's what I'm saying. It's frustrating itself. But if you're here for a year, there's some truth somewhere that you need to fix. But what I'm saying is that, say if people that you're associated with is being accused of something and you're looped up into that, do you look internally

Starting point is 01:55:01 or you just writing shit down on how to republish? No, I got a vet too. I got a man. My main connective matter got locked up. That was my friend. Okay. They tried to loop me in and say I knew what some of the bullshit he was doing. I'm like, I'm rich.

Starting point is 01:55:13 I ain't know nothing about that bullshit he was doing. Okay, got it. So you, okay, got it. But I got to face it, opposed to running from it and be like, So you face it? Yeah, you got to face it, head on. Got to face it.

Starting point is 01:55:22 You don't become an Uber driver and stuff like that. Do things different. You go straight into it. Nah, I ain't run for it.. You don't become an Uber driver and stuff like that, do things different. You go straight into it. Nah, I ain't run for it. Like Cesar Pena. You gotta look. Joe, leave him alone. Like Cesar Pena.

Starting point is 01:55:30 Why did you single me, Isha Mell out, and say we're different, because you have an angle there, but I didn't catch it. I don't have an angle, I just believe how y'all three react to criticism is different than how me, Ice and Parks, we had to criticism.

Starting point is 01:55:46 It wasn't deep. I think you like it though. I know you do. Yeah, I mean, I think. I know you think that. You don't, does anybody agree with me? Do you think that Joe likes that? Likes the criticism?

Starting point is 01:55:59 Yeah. I don't think he liked the criticism. I don't think he liked the criticism. I think he knows how to handle it well, but then everybody's not him. I think he hates it actually. I don't think he liked the criticism. I think he knows how to handle it well, but then everybody's not him. I think he hates it, actually. I think Joe sees the bigger picture, and as long as the bigger picture and the engine is still moving, then I take that as it comes with the territory as part of the gig.

Starting point is 01:56:16 Some people are able to disconnect easier than others. Like Ice, Ice will just disconnect. That's something that he is. Parks don't really pay attention to the internet. I do, but I don't let him. I pay attention to the internet all day. I just don't let it affect me emotionally. You disconnect.

Starting point is 01:56:29 You don't let that, you don't. But I've learned to, and appreciate how- Dawg, you've got 20 years in this. That's what I'm saying. I've learned to appreciate how everybody handles things differently and in their own way. So I don't say it to judge. I say it just because it's something to be mindful of.

Starting point is 01:56:46 But you came up here and said that we should have a character to put out to the audience, right? But then if we have a character, how will we be able to show our real selves? People connect with authenticity. They like when you're your real self. So if we put a character there, like that's what my problem is,

Starting point is 01:57:02 is the character and the me, and the real me. So I can speak from personal experience. My character that I'm putting up there, and then me in real life. That shit is not easy. They totally different people. You know what I mean? When people approach you in the street and approach you,

Starting point is 01:57:15 Expect your character. It's not easy to deal with. So then what do you say to that? My father said, you signed up for it, you signed up for this, you wanted this, you have to know how to navigate through it. Wise words from a decent man. Yeah couldn't agree with your father. That's what he said to me That was a what flip does what I do is on the ups case because he created that character sure Sure, he created that character put that character out there you benefited from that character. I did so now you can't now turn around

Starting point is 01:57:42 Sometimes you got to take everything that comes with that character that you put out there. But sometimes the character's more of a persona. You know what I'm saying? I don't have a character like what he's created. I have more of a persona that I've created in terms of just being poised and composed and sexy and whatever all that other shit is.

Starting point is 01:58:04 But when I'm in say, I don't know baggage claim and I just got a phone call that you know A loved one has cancer. I don't want to be who you think I am at that very moment So those are the those are the navigational kind of you know Moments where it just it is extraordinarily complicated. That's an extreme But that happens frequently and that's why so many celebrities will be like, you know It's extraordinarily complicated. That's an extreme. That was an extreme. But that happens frequently. And that's why so many celebrities will be like, they get approached by somebody who they want you to be,

Starting point is 01:58:32 who they believe you to be in that moment. And when you just have a, when you just got bad news or you're having a bad day and you don't react the way that they hope, then they get online and they're like, yo, I met so-and-so, they're a piece of shit and blah, blah, blah. And that's, when you say the whole, you signed up for it, I'm just like, yo, I met so and so, they're a piece of shit and blah, blah, blah. And that's, when you say the whole, you signed up for it,

Starting point is 01:58:46 I'm just like, nah, I'm still, you're still a human being at the end of the day. And there needs to be a little bit more respect paid to the fact that we're humans. Look what they did to Macaulay Coke, not Macaulay Coke, what's the guy that passed away, the short guy? Recently?

Starting point is 01:59:01 No, he passed away a long time ago. Corey Feldman? Corey Haynes. What'd you talk about, Willis? Oh, Gary passed away a long time ago. Corey Feldman? Corey Haines. What you talking about Willis? Gary Coleman. Gary Coleman. You know what I mean?

Starting point is 01:59:09 To be identified as that character, a character that he's built over the years, to be identified as that when he just wanted to live his life. Look what it did to him. These things that happen with... I'm just saying. So you comparing you, Mel, and this to Gary Coleman? No, I'm not comparing. No, I think that. But I think that.

Starting point is 01:59:27 You so fucking rude. Why you so fucking rude? Am I in the fucking matrix? No. In all reality, the thing is, when we speak about Mel, Mel- Flip might be a little bit. Because of my size. Oh shit.

Starting point is 01:59:42 That's racist. That's funny. You do look like Webster. I got your back. That's funny. You might be Webster, yo. You gonna let him say that? I got a spank. He used my black card. Like Mel. Mel has a, so you call it a persona where her professional, Mel professionalism, how she speaks and puts a, I think it's a character on, on the podcast or on her shows that I may have watched. It's not the same how Mel is behind the scenes. Mel is not that sophisticated behind the scenes.

Starting point is 02:00:10 Niggas, Mel wants some bullshit. Lies and treachery will get you nowhere. Yo, yo, keep it real. Mel, you not that sophisticated behind the scenes. You don't use none of those big ass words. I might, I might. I might be a little gangster. Yeah, you not, well not gangster, but you're not that.

Starting point is 02:00:25 You're not that capable. Shut up E. I think we should all be mindful of the energy and personas that we put out. True, all right. Even for me, when I was going through, and I'll call you like, yo, why all this? You like, some of us, you said it, like yo,

Starting point is 02:00:37 some of us you, motherfucker. All these people not attacking you, because you're an angel, and then you learn how to be softer, more gracious with people, and a lot of that shit go away. I think it's kind of unfair coming from Joe though, because he has so many experiences so many years that he fought through it. That's just how I feel.

Starting point is 02:00:51 I know he don't like to hear that shit. It's a crock of shit. I don't think that. I think what I said stands. I think that he just looked at it like yo the gig is the gig. He was at the beginning. Remember what you went through nigga? Half the people didn't go through what you experienced.

Starting point is 02:01:02 Half the people didn't go through it. The TV shit and all that shit, going down, bouncing up. Niggas ain't experienced that. Your wounds, your wounds made you who you are today. So imagine you took all the wounds for everybody and niggas coming in fresh. And then we going through what you've been through. You know how to navigate through the battlefield.

Starting point is 02:01:20 A lot of niggas don't know how to navigate through the battlefield. That's just what it is. And then you put this, not, I don't say, I don't want to say expectation, but you say, yo, you guys should do it like this and do it like that. And I do agree with you, because when you say it, it makes sense,

Starting point is 02:01:32 but it's not as easy as you say it is. Or how you make it seem. And see, now, to my, the way I treat it, I have experienced, because I've been on the other side of it. Oh yeah. Were you a troll? Yeah, that's really it for me.

Starting point is 02:01:48 Because I've been on the other side of it, I can identify these people. So I know, one, y'all don't mean the shit y'all saying, which is why when you're out and you run into people, It's all love. It's all love. Like you just said, your haters, once you reach out to them, they do what I tell you all the time. you just said, your haters, once you reach out to them,

Starting point is 02:02:05 they just, what I tell you all the time, they just want acknowledgement. They just want, hey, look at me. Unfortunately, I say this, I feel like I broke a record. Negativity stands out more. It does. Absolutely.

Starting point is 02:02:19 Y'all can sit there and read the comments and read this and it'll be a thousand people praising you. You don't even see it. But once that one person is on your ass, you see that. They know, and then you reply to that. They know you reply to that, so it feeds them. So it says, okay, let's stay on his ass so we can get replies.

Starting point is 02:02:36 That's what I'm about to say. And once you show people, to me anyway, what grinds your gears, the. The people that enjoy grinding gears is coming to grind your gears. I'm one of those, I enjoy a little gear grinding pause. So if I see that that piss you off, I used to have the same fight with my girl, yo, check that bitch.

Starting point is 02:02:57 Well, why? Didn't she gonna know that this is a checkable offense? Your response is just lighter than me. Yeah, that's good. I'm gonna try to get that off of you. That's true though. I'm saying that it works with her, but that's my thinking. If I let the girl know that this is grinding your gear, it's you who I care about. Of course.

Starting point is 02:03:17 Not her, who I don't. I agree with you. Then now we've allowed somebody who don't matter and is inconsequential. You gave him the blueprint. What's the difference between that and establishing a boundary? A boundary with who? Strangers? What these motherfuckers doing with this?

Starting point is 02:03:32 Strangers? Yeah. They don't. Look, we see that. Yeah, a boundary with strangers. Like, don't get... How do you enforce that? With a stranger.

Starting point is 02:03:42 In the moment of your interaction, you let them know I'm not the motherfucking one, two, or three. So what is, okay, so all they're gonna do now is come back to the room. So let's play that out. What does that say to the thousand people that just watched you do it,

Starting point is 02:03:53 that just wanna reply from you? What does that say to them? Who wouldn't get attention here. Who would never normally get the reply, but because you just told them I'm not one, two, or three, what does that tell them? Okay, the way to get her to reply is to do what? Yep.

Starting point is 02:04:06 Well. That's true. Historically, I have always turned the other cheek. I have taken the high road so many times, I get nosebleeds, so that's usually my MO. Stay there. I just kind of got a little fed up with that shit. So, hence Spicy Mel has been around for a little while. And I ain't gonna hold you, speaking for me,

Starting point is 02:04:27 I'm not shooting at nobody here. I'm not shooting at none of y'all, even though we talking about this. Now I don't forgot the shot anyway. Oh, what was I about to say? No, I wasn't shooting at y'all. Oh, podcasters in general that complain about this type shit,

Starting point is 02:04:45 to me it just sound like when the spoiled rich white kid in school is fucking complaining about some shit. I was just saying when y'all was outside, I've tried to think of a simpler gig than this. Yeah. I can't. Mm-hmm. Like if you niggas, not you niggas.

Starting point is 02:05:01 If people, if people can't fucking deal with what comes along with podcasting, this new boom that happened to come about where people, we privileged enough. We privileged and blessed enough to work somewhere twice a week, not counting anybody's side gigs. Everybody got side gigs. The weird economy is everybody needs side gigs. That's true

Starting point is 02:05:25 But I think this is a pretty good gig So it's like the people that's all they out there complaining. They called me this they said this about me It's like yeah, but are we just totally discounting the blessings? Sure, and the words are we moving the blessings to the side And it goes back to what I said about focusing on how negativity just standing out more. You're not even looking at all the positive shit because you focus on the little bit of negativity. My life has changed too much, too drastically, quickly, for me to worry about what Becky 453 thinks about things. The mortal words of Tyler the Creator, man, is log out.

Starting point is 02:06:08 Nor are there many people that Dave said worse things about than me. Yeah, for you, yeah. Like, develop a fucking thick skin, put the fucking phone down, ignore them niggas. I'm going back to my normal life. Flip, you be outside, so, and y'all be outside, so I can't speak to that, because if it takes me

Starting point is 02:06:32 lockin' myself in a room, I will. I understand what you're saying. If it takes me lockin' myself in a bathroom or closet if my problem is outside, then I will. I have committed life to this thing. But that's the thing, Joe, the problem is not outside. Because once again, when you see people outside, it's love.

Starting point is 02:06:51 They're buying you drinks and water and sending you charcuterie boards. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's too much love to even focus on the hate. I'm going to ask you a question. I got you. And if you're talking to a large enough audience, then you gonna get some hate.

Starting point is 02:07:08 It comes with it. Like I'm prepared, I'm prepared for that. Like it kind of fuels me, pardon me a little bit. What'd you say? You gonna be honest with me on that question? I gotta get a question first. I wanna preserve the right to lie at all times. Are you kidding me?

Starting point is 02:07:22 So listen, so this is where the confusion comes from. You me? So listen, this is where the confusion comes from. You gotta keep a lie in your tongue. This is where the confusion comes from, even when it comes to you, right? So I can speak for me and you. Like if you engage, and I say it sometimes, engage with people that are saying things about the gig or me, right?

Starting point is 02:07:44 And aren't you giving them credence to keep going? Like, because you are the head of the crop, right? So you you're the head of the ship. You're engaging people. Yo, we don't like flip flip is doing this. That niggas annoying. You you're not saying anything, but you're there. You're listening. I'm present.

Starting point is 02:07:58 You're present. You're not saying that. And I've recently learned that y'all don't like that. Yeah, well, I didn't. But now I don't give a fuck because I get it. I've recently. I understand. I don't like that. Yeah, well, I didn't, but now I don't give a fuck because I get it. I've recently learned that y'all don't like that. I understand it because I understand it now. You know what I mean? That's like the same thing when I was doing interviews and Fifth probably didn't like me

Starting point is 02:08:13 sitting with Smurf or talking to his son, even though I'm defending Fifth. He's saying like, why would you even sit there in the first place knowing that I'm going through this? It's just I guess I don't know if it's an old school mentality thing. I don't know. But even with old school mentality thing, I don't know. But even with you, like if you sitting there talking and they feel comfortable, wouldn't that give them more ammunition to keep going?

Starting point is 02:08:30 Joe, Joe was with us, Joe listened to us saying, so let us keep saying it. So then- But look at it like this, and it may still hurt, but when McMahon was selling Austin versus Cena, or Austin versus Rock, he'll listen to them say Austin sucks, but WrestleMania still fucking draw like crazy. I know it may not be the exact same.

Starting point is 02:08:52 That example was brought to me too. But that example was brought to me too. Like you gotta look at it as Joe as Vince McMahon, not personally, but like as, oh no. You know, Joe, I had to clear that. But it gives the audience, like, nigga, we speak to Joe about it, nigga, who the fuck are you? We speak to your boss. Nigga, we don't give a fuck how you feel or nothing,

Starting point is 02:09:13 so we gonna tell him how we feel, we gonna say it, and we gonna go a little further, because we, you know, sometimes the boss give people ammunition unintentionally. So what do you say to that when I say that? Like, even if we don't, even if I don't like that, what do you say your intent is? What do I say what?

Starting point is 02:09:29 Your intent is like, what do you say about that? How it comes off to people that it matters to? Well, listening to how you feel about it or how you felt about it. I felt, yeah, I don't feel. And I know it's made mention of it before. Mel feel like she wanna make mention of it, but don't, I don't know.

Starting point is 02:09:44 But I received, I received how y'all feel about it. I don't give a fuck. Yeah. I like that. I don't give a fuck about it. Should you give a fuck? No. Why?

Starting point is 02:09:55 Not at all, I shouldn't give a fuck. Why? If we're talking about- Well, it's a full circle. It's a full circle moment, right? There's a lot of great research in criticism. You started with that. You started with that.

Starting point is 02:10:11 If you on a stage, if you on a public stage, and again, we start with all the blessings, I'm starting with the blessings. If you on a public stage that has afforded you those blessings, then you should feel good enough to be able to hold it down when the other side starts coming. I feel like that. One, two, engagement is engagement.

Starting point is 02:10:33 It don't say good engagement. It don't say praise, compliment, complimentary engagement. Engagement is engagement. You talking to somebody that through the down years of his career, my engagement has always been better than the A level in Premier X because I'm there. Just because I'm there, I don't have to be talking about nothing, oh shit, he there.

Starting point is 02:10:55 It's like when I'm in the strip club on a Thursday night and one of the fucking niggas in the project say, yo, you here, yeah. Yo, you know I respect you, I never, you just did it right here with us, yo. Why is so? Yeah. It's as simple as that for me. So engagement is engagement.

Starting point is 02:11:13 I know what people are paying for engagement. You right? Yeah. I see it. Big facts. Yeah. And I know how much it costs. Yup. Yup. So I'm not, nobody is going to trick me into thinking that the blessings are a negative

Starting point is 02:11:25 Yeah, and even if they come in a bad shape box or bad-built damaged box It is all a blessing Who the fuck is anybody here for people to be talking about myself included? Now I've done enough for how many years I gave enough to talk about but in the grand scheme of things Everybody's insignificant. Yo, who the fuck are y'all? Who the fuck am I? They talking, great!

Starting point is 02:11:51 Awesome! Worry when they not. Big facts. Yeah. That's when you work it. It could go another way. I'm looking at all the podcasters that died for the engagement.

Starting point is 02:12:05 Look at the shit that everybody out there doing. They're going and secretly trying to hire the people that's engaging in all, like dog, like dog. I don't take none of it for granted. I want to respect everybody's feelings on the matter because everybody don't have to handle shit the same. But I don't take none of the blessing for granted. They come with this shit.

Starting point is 02:12:23 Yeah. I don't. And that includes some of them niggas I don't want to talk to. If they saying something I don't want to of the blessing for granted they come with this shit Yeah, I don't can't and that includes some of them niggas I don't want to talk to if they saying something on when he ever move myself Yeah, I'm back to the a no Yeah, that's hey if I go in the club a pad with a sexist own girl from death to Get what I matter sweet girl sweet girl. I'm going yeah, I'm going Sweet girl, I'm going. I'm going.

Starting point is 02:12:42 I'm going. She ain't do nothing wrong. She ain't do nothing wrong. She look to the side, got excited, great. I'm gonna go. Last week in my fucking estate, whatever that was, shit I was doing. I'm in the city at a time I ain't normally in the city.

Starting point is 02:12:57 Fucking 95 hours. It's noon or some shit. I'm walking downstairs. I'm on like Wall Street, Soho. One of them shits, not so, but one of them shits down there where niggas is working. You got the other nigga, huh? Yeah. Stop.

Starting point is 02:13:13 He had to say, he was on Wall Street. He was on Wall Street. One of them blocks. One of them little downtown blocks that I don't be on. But I go downstairs for a little smoke break and I'm sitting in and keep, and a girl walked by and she didn't say, hey, you look like Joe Budden.

Starting point is 02:13:33 That don't never work with me. Hey, and I get that all the time. She kept walking, but she was puzzled the whole way down. I'm like, I know that, nigga, she was on the phone. I think, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then some more people came. Yo, you're Joe Budden. Take a picture. then some more people came. Yo, you do a button. Take a picture.

Starting point is 02:13:46 And some more people came. Now it's like a crowd. You would think Pump It Up is at its peak. The way that these people is over here, crowd and they done followed me in the building. They trying to guess what floor I'm going. You going to seven, ain't you? That way, anybody over there going seven.

Starting point is 02:13:59 What you talking about? I'm like, hey, that's invasive, that's intrusive. I'm sitting down, tapping in, I said, hey, that Pride Spikes shit must be working. That little commercial, I feel like people, that was a lot just now. You've been all over my team. That's not for me.

Starting point is 02:14:14 I hate all of that. I am an introvert. Leave me alone. I don't want to talk to nobody. Most of my fans sometimes respect it. But in the event that they don't, I'm grateful for the ruckus. I'm grateful for the ruckus. I'm grateful for the ruckus.

Starting point is 02:14:29 I just made some fucking girl date. You tellin' a man on the phone, annoying that nigga. Like, there's nothin' for me to complain about. There's nothin' for me to complain about. So yeah. Once you lose the fan base, ooh, I've seen people go crazy.

Starting point is 02:14:43 And you know what? He's right, he's right. He's really tryin' to get it. For real, go crazy. Adam, if you need help, I've seen people go sober. And you know what? He's right. He's right. For real, go crazy. Adam, if you need help, ask some friends in Chicago. Adam is jumping in the fucking coffin. He jumping in the coffin. Spirit of Tucson.

Starting point is 02:14:56 Lowering it himself. It's over, nigga. 22. You know you one of my favorite whites ever, but. Yeah, Adam, I fuck with you too, but it's over, my nigga. I love that. Your reign on the top is short like leprechauns. There are people in their room somewhere,

Starting point is 02:15:14 you know how Hov said, on whatever DVD that was, looking at this nigga right now eating a bowl of cereal. Eating a bowl of cereal. Come write some shit. Beating on the table. That's the same thing here. That's true.

Starting point is 02:15:24 So every second that y'all or y'all or anybody dedicates to something else, there's somebody eating a bowl of cereal that's just sharpening a sword, trying to get better and trying to come take your fucking, trying to come take your spot. I don't have time to talk about what these niggas on the internet think about me.

Starting point is 02:15:41 They think I'm a piece of shit. Now watch this. Now watch me get to it as a piece of shit, quote unquote. And they go and keep watching you. Big facts. That's what I'm saying, most of them hate me. Even at Joe Button TV community now, all the haters done gotten in there now,

Starting point is 02:15:54 all the everybody that hates me is in there. I'm so appreciative. Yeah, run it up. That there's somewhere for people that hate me to centralize. To commune and talk about you. And talk. And and talk about you. And talk. And they talk about everything.

Starting point is 02:16:07 As annoying as that be sometimes. They try to get to it. Yo, I think Jo's fucking about to fire Melissa. He sent her home. Oh my God, she was belligerent. Jo's not gonna run his business like that. That little shit be annoying. Guess what?

Starting point is 02:16:26 Love it. Still gotta Guess what? Love it. Still gotta listen. Absolutely love it. And if you're producing a show, you'll get some little bullet points. Absolutely love it. Rap fan base, rap fan base. Yeah.

Starting point is 02:16:36 There's people that would pay. People that do. And you know the other part, you can't even put a number on it to try to get that level of engagement that that community has. There's people that would pay for the hate. Yeah, you can't even put a number on it to try to get that level of engagement that that community has. There's people that would pay for the hate. Yeah, you're right.

Starting point is 02:16:47 The other part is I'ma always view it differently, at least in this infrastructure, because I was here from the day one. Yeah. When none of that existed. But is it? So, all right, it's all on me, nigga. My fault.

Starting point is 02:17:01 What the fuck you talking about? Sorry. See me on a classic JoRand. You are, you are. Don't do that, bro. I'm stepping right now. I'm just saying when you did from day one and there's nothing and there's no money There's no company giving money Nobody's thinking about your podcast or whatever the fuck y'all doing and you trying to grow 10,000 listeners to 20 and 20 to 40 and 40 to 60 and so on and so on and then still got to wait for people

Starting point is 02:17:23 To come give you some money then the company's changing mind want to give all the white people in the TV shows The money that this shit is all so when you did for every step of the way Yeah, you can't take none of it for green like I used to tell them niggas about tour save on in them niggas Shout out to save on by the time save on start coming on tour. It was four season hotels It was big big big sprinters the luxury sprinters if you know something about sprinters they don't all cost the same we got the one with the phone chargers yeah we got the one with the USB don't USB by every seat yeah TVs a good driver not one of them

In a fucking suburban somewhere. Tile, fucking suburban. You know how I feel going to pick up the second half of 2500?

Starting point is 02:18:15 What the fuck are y'all niggas talking about out there? And what is your complaint about? I'm on a video somewhere about to beat up a promoter from Bermuda that was over here Cuz the old slaughterhouse money over here then booked us again over here now. We fight in the air. It's like your dog If you if you was there Fucking up the mix on our list three drunk Becks. Coming down. Coming. Yeah, for real. But Parks ain't never fucking been there. Rawr. Rawr.

Starting point is 02:18:59 We gotta go. We have to do what the fuck he wanna do. Like. Yeah. Yeah. When you come from the humble beginnings, even though I started out this podcast talking shit about the non-pipers,

Starting point is 02:19:09 but when you come from the humble beginnings, there is nothing to not appreciate. There is nothing about this to not appreciate. It's almost disrespectful to not appreciate it. That's how I feel about it. Like, it's all these fucking, do you feel? Yeah, don't get me started.

Starting point is 02:19:26 Do you feel like it's panic mode, meaning that you watch podcasts or people, companies that were up and that probably didn't appreciate everything and they end up going down? Do you feel like, do you go in, I don't want to say panic mode, but go into a defensive mode where you like, I'm not going to let this go. I'm not going to let this fall. I'm going to, I'm going to do. Yeah. Does it come from a place of paranoia? I'm not going to let this fall, I'm not gonna let this fall. Paranoid. I'm gonna, yeah, does it come from a place of paranoia?

Starting point is 02:19:46 I'm not gonna let this fall, I'm not gonna let the company go under. If I have to sit here with Parks and myself, if I have to put a camera in front of me, I'm gonna do whatever it takes to make this keep rising. That's why I wanna hear all the critiques and comments from the people. Do you feel like that, you come from that standpoint?

Starting point is 02:26:23 that nigga put up with a lot of bullshit. And I said, well, and they feel like it's unfair, right? And I cracked a joke about it, I think the Patreon, but I was like, I think that what Ian explained to me and what Joe said is that they see a little bit of Joe in me. I may be a little bit, or a lot more erratic, but he understands a lot of times.

Starting point is 02:26:43 A lot of times he understands where I'm coming from, so it's easy to defuse the situation. Y'all understand, I seen that before, you shouldn't handle it this way, even Parks. Parks, I don't give him a lot of credit, but even times he pulled me to the side and he'll say like, I seen that, I seen that behavior before, try it this way.

Starting point is 02:27:01 You know what I mean? So people do think that, yo, there's a lot of people out there. You let the white man tell you what to do? No, it's not about that. Yeah, yeah. I do be saying that, but people be up here. I've dealt with more shit since you and Mel

Starting point is 02:30:54 You know what's funny about the Ferrari story? And this is just poetic justice of life or God's sense of humor or just things come in full circle. We was coming from a pod one time. Me, Ice, Fish, Corey, when we was in Queens with Parks and we stopped at the gas station. Oh yeah. And my man had the,

Starting point is 02:31:24 and my man was out there with the red Ferrari. And I looked at that shit, it's like what the fuck is going on? What is that? And so was there getting gassed. You start talking to him. And I got out the car to go talk to him, and he thought I was a mugger.

But he, and I said to him, I said, hey man, not to bug you, but that is a beautiful, beautiful car. Like, how'd you do that?

And this was a gift that I got to myself for my birthday, or something that just passed. And I always looked at it, but I never thought about it. And I said, fuck it. Went and got it, and I love it, man, it's beautiful.

Starting point is 02:32:22 And I looked, and it's like, man, wow. And I took my bummy ass, my dusty ass back to the truck and looked at these guys, hey, he's a surgeon. I remember that story. He's a dentist, he's a dentist surgeon. I remember that story, yo, he's stupid, yo. So, it's like. Yeah, but since you got your Ferrari, it didn't put no dent in your pocket, you stupid, yo. So, it's just like. Yeah, but since you got your Ferrari,

No, no, no, by the time I get the Ferrari, I could've got 30 Ferraris. That's a lesson in itself, though. If you see me go get, If you see me go bug out, that means that years and years and years ago if I was trying

Starting point is 02:37:13 No. No. Just checking. Can I ask you a question since you asked me one? Sure. I know they talk about the job security, but what was your framework to make it where you so valuable that you had the job security?

Starting point is 02:37:27 Very good question. I don't know if it was really that intentional. And I don't know that my job is the most secure.

Starting point is 02:38:05 I'm not threatening. That's not what I'm. I'm just trying to tell you. I have a plan to exit. So I have to be able to use. I got a plan for you not to exit. Exactly. We're going back and forth.

Starting point is 02:38:13 So I have to see who wins. I have to throw things. You're up there trying to get that Wild'n Out gig. Nigga, I'll come right backstage into Barclay. You and everybody. Hey, y'all, I'm a free agent. Free agent soon. Time to be seen. Hey, Con.

Starting point is 02:38:45 Mark Lamont is here as an additive. Paul, to answer your question, I'm not intimidated by anything. All jokes aside. I mean, what I do feel though is that you are an important... He expresses that, how important you are to the gig. And even though you're not a guy that's a show off type guy, I don't know if I'm saying it right, you're very humble. The truth is the truth. Right? You've been there since the beginning. And even though you're not a guy that's a show off type guy, I don't know if I'm saying it right, you're very humble.

Starting point is 02:39:06 The truth is the truth. You've been there since the beginning and you don't act like it, you just sit in the back. But I put the respect on you. I feel like it's just secure of me. And I think that's fly. You know what's really underrated in this business? And I hate that this podcast, I don't hate it,

Starting point is 02:39:22 but that this has turned into like this type of Patreon vibe. But you know what's really underrated? Just being a good human. True. Pays incredible dividends. Just being a good human and being where you're supposed to be and just doing what you're supposed to do and feeling how you're supposed to feel

Starting point is 02:39:40 and just showing up as your best self is really just underrated. For all the shit that you're saying about Parks and how great the mixing sounds, he's great, he's just a good guy. Yeah, that's a fact. Very good guy. Work hard.

Starting point is 02:39:52 He's a good guy. Fuck, when them niggas was calling for Icehead, I'll get him out of there, when his voice was all scratchy, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, I was like, Ice is a good man, what are y'all talking about? What are you talking about?

Starting point is 02:40:04 He is a good guy.? He's a good guy. I'm not a good guy. I'm not a good guy. So I need to do the rounds. Go around the room. Go around the room. You stopped at the two people that you said earlier. I'm getting down to the bottom.

Starting point is 02:40:20 He's stuck there. I'm getting down to the bottom. You see, he stopped and pointed to him. You see, Parks? I feel like y'all three have the most shit with y'all. But y'all are tasked with that. So for me, it's interesting to see y'all manage that. I don't necessarily watch that with ice in parks

Starting point is 02:40:46 because the same way the sun is gonna come up in the morning, parks is gonna be parks and ice is gonna be ice. Any variable could get either one of y'all three to just show something different. That's a very diplomatic way of putting it. It's the truth. I know. I ain't trying to be funny. I know you're not.

Starting point is 02:41:05 It's true. And I used to do that. So I'm with it. And I do think that everybody is a good person, like at your core. But you have to work. You have to keep it. You have to work. It's constant work to be a good person. For real. Like I work on my nice people voice. Like when I want people to think I person. Real, like I work on my nice people voice. Like when I want people to think I'm a nice person, I work on the voice. It's the same as standing in the bathroom air working on rapper hands.

Starting point is 02:41:31 Like when I want to seem more sentimental than I am, I try and man, it's hard. But I. See. See. Yeah. I was waiting for the little dude. I gotta work on it.

Starting point is 02:41:42 I gotta work on it. We got a couple more minutes with Ian. So anything that we need to get from Ian. And Ian sent over a great list of conspiracy theory shit that we just did not get to at all. That's a shame. Can we get to some of it? Yeah, I would like to.

Starting point is 02:41:56 Please. Ian left me at the bar by myself with the escorts. Is that a conspiracy theory? No, no, that's actual. Why you do that? For her. Have to be here, be here early. He had to be here too though.

Starting point is 02:42:12 Yeah. Well. Cadence is different. Had to study the market in the morning. You know what I mean? I still want to know what to buy. She was tossing it too. Aside from escorts.

Very similar but if you didn't protect your IP that's the part that sucks yo. It's a direct copy and rip off but it's something I've learned. Trademarks are key. Protecting your IP is key.

Starting point is 02:44:31 That's funny. You hear some of the Tesla robots were being controlled by humans. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, they had someone back there with a little remote control. Yep. Not fully autonomous, how you project it.

Starting point is 02:44:43 Yeah. Will Drake and Kendrick ever be cool again? No. No. No. Hard no on that for me. How many kids do you think Epstein had and left money to? This one. Oh, shit. I like this one.

Did he have any children that he talked about or are we talking about illegitimate? Not that he talked about. I'll have enough time because I got a hard out,

To the agency, I'm on your side. Let me fly you out. Thoughts on Kamala Harris playing? We did that. What percentage of the NBA and NFL is rigged?

Starting point is 02:45:30 All of it's rigged now, controlled by the referees with gambling in play. Seeing some real wonky shit. I don't think it's all of it, but I do think that there is a percentage. I think the winners be kind of damn near like you almost got, if you even watched the game last night. Absolutely. That game was a horribly officiated game and it was almost like, yo,

Starting point is 02:45:49 we can't let the Jets win this game. I think there's also inherent biases that creep into sports and have forever. I think that Pat Mahomes is gonna get a, roughing the penalty, roughing the passer against him every single time. Same way Michael Jordan never got called for a foul. You know what I mean?

Starting point is 02:46:03 There's some shit that's inherent, but I do think it's stepped up now with- I really think it's more of that. I think of people just putting a lot of it on the bet, and maybe I could be naive, but I think it's just, certain people are gonna get certain calls or not get, and when you lose money, you're gonna blame it on the betting part.

Starting point is 02:46:19 But you don't think the gambling market being so big now, like at one point in our community, I think gambling will surpass passive investing as a primary investment vehicle. I agree with you. That's true. It's coming. It might be this now.

Starting point is 02:46:34 It might be that now. In our community, what you talking about? The conversations that I be having at bank, they're like, what the fuck? In our communities? Bro, that might, that's, I ain't gonna lie, that's a thing now. It ain't too far off the stock market

Starting point is 02:46:46 and you could actually have a little bit of knowledge about the shit. I ain't even know the niggas still play street numbers. One of my people hit the street numbers the other day for 30 grand. I was like. You got damn right. They still got that? Street numbers ain't dead.

He got such a good heart. If I don't do it this way, he going to keep doing it that way. So you just got to beat it. That's not an ego thing for me.

Starting point is 02:55:10 You mean he-she? That thing. Bloaticious. Sweetie. Delicious. Give me two scoops, love me good. Oh damn. Holler to Hollywood, but is he good?

Starting point is 02:55:22 In hip hop, and I was a lyricist, I never knew what he was talking about right there. It was just fire, who cares? Flavor the ear remix. Now they're saying he, she, and it was a transgender in the video, and then that same transgender was at the urinal, or another transgender at the urinal

Starting point is 02:55:40 in the Big Poppa video, which was a continuation to Warning when she was in the bed next to Big. So some of these things are coming up now. Do y'all think that LL knew and he, she was about that? No, no, no, no. So what do you think it was about? Just LL being LL.

Starting point is 02:56:01 What's pink cookies in a plastic bag getting crushed by a building? Nobody know what the fuck that is, man. Yeah, but there wasn's pink cookies in a plastic bag getting crushed by a building? Nobody know what the fuck that is, man. Yeah, but there wasn't a mascot in a plastic bag being pink in the video. So it's like, I'm not mad at he, she, just being. Are we sure that the person that was in that video is a transgender?

Starting point is 02:56:16 Yeah. Yes. Why? Because we have, nobody found where they at today. They passed away. They passed away? Yeah. Oh. I'm just saying, yeah, like I know, but it was confirmed. where they at today? They passed away. They passed away? Yeah. I'm just saying it, yeah, like I know, but it was confirmed. It was confirmed that this person was a transgender.

Starting point is 02:56:30 All right, so y'all think LL didn't know. No. Does any of this change how you feel about Biggie's sexual preference? No. I didn't feel anything about Biggie's sexual preference. Yeah, ever. Or view his sexual preference.

Starting point is 02:56:41 I don't think it was a question. No. I don't care what he's into. Exactly, we're super woke now. The don't think it was a question. No. I don't care what he's into. Exactly. We're super woke now. The nigga may ready to die, though. Oh, I 100% care. And I'm thinking about it.

Starting point is 02:56:50 Why do you care? Because of Puff. Oh. Because of Puff. Because if we open our mind and think that about Biggie, then who's to say that we're not looking at that kind of like we look at Justin Bieber? Mm. I look at Justin Bieber.

Starting point is 02:57:08 I look at it differently just based on their age. Yeah. So I think that's a little different. When did they like first... Well, the age is different. That's what I'm saying. Opportunity's not. True, I agree with that. Opportunity's not.

Starting point is 02:57:17 But it's... And I could take y'all way deeper. I could take y'all down this, but I won't. That could tie into a bunch of... Hey, bleat this out. Bleat this out. And you know what they was saying about .

Starting point is 02:57:30 And when you saw the video of Craig Mack when he was giving his testimony in the church, like the things I've seen, I'm the demon, the devil. Mace, Mace said dog, it got to- Mace said the same, yeah. Mace said, yo, it got to a point, yeah. All of them niggas retired and turned to God. If we're close-minded to this stuff,

Starting point is 02:57:47 then we won't ever even view it through this lens. Mace shit was beef shit in the street. He didn't do it with this shit with baby Mane. That's what he did with the church. I mean, so you say, and so people think, but I think that Mace and some other people are storing secrets that they never told. I know the people that wrote his book.

Starting point is 02:58:05 Cameron wrote his book and she was like, she took, he's so stupid. She said that, we not recording no more. Yes we are. Yeah. Oh that's wild. No. Did you hide?

Rest in peace to Craig Mac, Biggie, just everybody. All right, I don't have anything else. I went to a crazy baby shower.

Starting point is 02:58:43 What made it crazy? Sunday. Cause it's just baby showers are different now. Shout out to Ali, Kat and Sasha, but. Shout them out.

Starting point is 03:00:12 I'm done here. There's nothing else that I want to say outside of that Timber Wolf Nick game the other day really hurt my soul. It really hurt my soul. Also, I've been texting Mark Lamont pictures of injured 76ers Sorry, I saw it were why did you guys in the pre-game?

Starting point is 03:00:35 No, I don't need to text the dice but That little hip that shit looked awkward at Paul George shit Shit bit and you got Joe Ellen bead saying he plans on never playing back to backs. So that's who? Again, on load management now. So my heart goes out to you Sixer fans that y'all thought y'all and us was about to have some season long rivalry. Anyway, that Timberwolves game hurt my heart. Dante Di Vendizio, looks Videnzio looks amazing in that jersey

Starting point is 03:01:06 and he was popping mad shit to the bench and to what sound like Tom Thibodeau. And then I thought it was all jokes until the end of the game when him and Rick Brunson almost squared up. Brunson got into it when he was on the line too. Yeah, but wait, you saying Brunson the coach, Rick? Or Jaylen? No, Rick, what happened was he was shooting at Tibbs.

Starting point is 03:01:25 Yeah, and then Brunson jumped in. I thought I can't go to the hole. Yeah, then Brunson jumped in and defended Tibbs. And at the end of the game, Brunson was like, yo, you know you just did some bitch shit to Deif and Chinzo. And he was like, what? And they started getting to it.

Starting point is 03:01:40 He's like, yo, mind your business. I wasn't even talking to you. I was talking to Tibbs. You know what I'm saying? And he said some slick shit, went brunt and turned back around, but Jalen kind of got into the middle of it with both of them butts.

Starting point is 03:01:50 It hurt my heart. It hurt my heart, I ain't gonna lie to you. And when one of your favorite players leave your team and go somewhere else, they be looking like Jordan. They be cooking. They even got best boys. All them Euro steps, deep shooting,

Starting point is 03:02:02 he was cooking our ass. He was. I watched that game. I think the Timberwolves made out great in the trade and I think the Knicks did too, but I don't really want to see cat. But I think both. Timberwolves. I think it was a good trade. Are we still in preseason?

Starting point is 03:02:15 Yeah, the season starts next week. And the Knicks not looking good? October 22nd. They look good. I think they're gonna be a top team in the league. I mean, I just don't want to see it like that. But whatever, I'm gonna watch it. I'll be at the game.

Starting point is 03:02:27 Go Knicks, go Knicks, go Mets, go Yankees. I wanna ask about the Mets. The Mets are, how far are they from making, like where are we at now? They gotta win. It's one more, right? Three more games. It's one more.

Speaking of independence and again R.I.P. Ka, this is I Love. You picked me up when I was at my lowest Used to hardly get spelled, now I'm held with the poets That was all you're doing, it was filthy You built me when I was all ruined How you soaked me with compliments really helped out Boasted all confidence and myself doubted It was time for my thirst, you was clearly a well It eventually made me empty, I was merely a shell None observed, it was on the verge of cracking

Starting point is 03:13:45 Till you said I had a gift, when you heard me rapping With your warm responses I was taking it back Former partners had me feeling like what I was making was wack Didn't offend me, saw something in me, I was blind to Who knew the finish finding me, I had to find you To close the thought, the support was life saving Not death is minor, but you got me living life major I'll stay forever, you make me better

Starting point is 03:14:06 I love, I love Since birth, when hurt or sick The only person I seek Could write a play about strength On how you work in the week Wanted to give you the world I saw your head struggling All praise to the father

Starting point is 03:14:24 I had your head mothering Sorry for the times I was belling in my teens But you know I had a felon in my genes Was bad man in bad lands chasing desire From viewing what you went through I learned grace under fire Seeing you proud of me, the sweetest words ever Pure soul like no moms, you deserve better Whatever ailments you nurse me, back the health

Starting point is 03:14:44 Defend me even when the enemies affect myself Show me love when all I seen was hate Said I was special to impress you, wanted to be seen It's great, it's my kids, thank you for the unconditional And though I may not see you as much, I'm always missing you Sacrifice was a fact of life You, I love, I love Held me down when I needed it most

Starting point is 03:15:11 Whether shoulder to cry on or I needed to toast And would never let me go that long Everybody call it the slum but we know it is home From where we from we supposed to be thug We both shared a different dream We was closer than blood Learn from you how to pour my heart in this song Way ahead of your time, it was just hard to

Starting point is 03:15:29 get on Ain't gonna lie, just wanted to buy houses for the fam Move them out the hood, give them thousands of some land The night sessions of eternal life lessons That I still use today, when I'm up tight stressin' Always said we was veterans, survivors And even though you passed, you'll forever be the lavish It was an honor to see you shine, I was blessed, son Cause in the end, as far as friends, he was the best one Gave so much and behaved so clutch, I love him

Starting point is 03:21:37 Not yet. All right It's called centigrade featuring nail nail DeGrade featuring NEO. NEO? Touching gold is worth the wait But how's the hesitation gonna fight that cold weather? Can't stay here, springtime forever Forever Forever, forever, baby Would hate for guilt to be the driving force in a carnal tug-of-war This ain't the present day Keep it cold, pathetic, skim the waves The ripples try to make it change course some pissed out is caught in the crosswinds

Starting point is 03:22:49 lucky for us we're in the same boat mercury drops in then we get the cold feet it's not a mystery, nature's flow we keep losing sleep from accusations, icy conversations We don't get that Touching doors worth the wait Perhaps the hesitation on a flight that

Starting point is 03:23:21 Weather Take that cold weather Kiss it, springtime Forever, forever I'm losing sleep, it's winter to me If I could just hide the name You said I'm worth the wait Seasons just flow I will come and go So are we just wasting time Or should we let fate decide And I know that it

Starting point is 03:23:58 Can't be springtime forever But how do we make it through the seasons together? Walk your step between the lines baby Rumination running wild baby This conception's magnified baby Can't we take it on the drive baby Captives on the grid defy baby Rumination, word of mouth, babe

Starting point is 03:24:47 Closer to the pilot like me Can we take it on a strike? Losing sleep from accusations I see conversations, we don't get back Touching those worth the wait Perhaps the hesitation gonna fight The dead and cold Forever Kissing the springtime

Starting point is 03:25:22 Forever Springtime forever Forever Not too shabby. Thank you. Not too shabby. I like it. It's kinda sexy. All right, all right. Yo dog. I thought we was gonna get one pot without it happening. We almost did it. Almost, almost there. It ain't happening, it's regular. You didn't answer it.

Starting point is 03:25:56 No, these stupid election niggas keep calling my phone. Get outta here. Shoulda answered it. You ain't doing what you're supposed to do with that payola. You know what I mean? Ish, what up, how you feel about your Cowboys, man? We've had an Amari Cooper and Devontae Adams trade since we started recording, which made me think to ask you.

Starting point is 03:26:17 It's frustrating, being a Cowboy fan. It would have to be. Amari ain't wanna leave, we got rid of Amari for peanuts. What did y'all get for? I didn't see it. We kept Gallup after ACL injury and gave Gallup a shit ton of money and let Amari, your number one receiver, go.

Starting point is 03:26:32 So imagine if we had Amari and CD right now. That's one. Derrick Henry wanted to come to Cowboys. We ain't even really interviewed him again. He out here putting up MVP numbers looking like he 12 again. We look ridiculous. We can't run the ball and we can't stop the run.

Starting point is 03:26:49 So I am we not even really protecting that. So I ain't even really as mad at him. You know, I come in and shit on him too. But it ain't even really his fault. Yeah, the Cowboys. I don't know, man. He can't stop a run. He knows out there. My heart goes out to y'all. No, it doesn't. No, it do. I don't know man. You can't stop a runny nose out that bitch. My heart goes out to y'all.

Starting point is 03:27:06 No it doesn't. No it do, it do actually. I'm not trying to be funny. Like shit, cowboys get the prime time slot. Normally you wanna see a good game, you don't wanna see the Lions throw it. The head coach was in the end zone. That nigga was just throwing it to the water boy. Hey, hey, let's try this.

Starting point is 03:27:21 He didn't give a fuck. It was disrespectful out there. but you know, revenge game. We're gonna get them. Revenge game. I'm over here angry with my team. They still just talking about they starting Russell Wilson next week. Why, stupid?

Starting point is 03:27:33 Why? Yeah, dog, and then they be wondering why these teams don't be good. They don't be no continuity, just be trying shit. Suck it, bro. That's nasty. All right, I think I'm ending this bad boy. Let's see here.

Starting point is 03:27:50 You came in pretty good, Paulz, to see what you. I came in on some rap shit, I'm ending on some rap shit. There's some good rhymes, I never heard that shit before. Things offended me. Oh, Joe played the same Jeezy sound. I ain't gonna lie, I was hurt. I was like, wait, he did the... But I like the records, so I'm not gonna complain, but damn.

Starting point is 03:28:07 That was by design. I hear you, but you know, Jeezy got a lot of records. If you're gonna put a set together, you play the same three. I played the same three for energy purposes only. He got other ones you could do with that. No, no, I wanted those records to get good energy for me and my guys, and that's what I did fuck the niggas The last thing y'all should ever want me to do is get in my rat bag so y'all could be confused

Starting point is 03:28:37 The people they started you know to talk about things that make sense That means sense I let the funk rock what up I let the funk out of here Rock what up what up what up I don't know where that shit come from I let yo fucking amazing For real, for real I don't even know how this shit started It went down like this, boy look at her I snuck through the door, peeked the scenes, not the you They crapped her one, two more, heads were getting nervous At three now they wanna break, no, too late 5 more, tour the door, straight the fuck off

Starting point is 03:29:07 It's all now, gettin' down in the trenches They soldiers gettin' them old asses Splinters on raggedy benches Since this war, ancient sweetest clique This place is in the transform, they check You all see it, grounds never spare clowns Ruck and rock be the rooks, hold the square now Are you prepared now, I tear down
