You know. Instead of getting up at 4 30, I got up at 6 30. I mean, you know, I got some sleep, you know. That extra two matters. Yeah, it does. Especially when you're my age. You know what I'm saying? You gotta take them two hour naps in the middle of the day.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. I'm starting to feel you on that. I'm not gonna lie to you.

SPEAKER_11

You know, when your parents sat there and told you when you was younger, boy, go in there and take a nap. He's like, I don't want to take a nap. Now, you hit over 50. Yo, I'm gonna take that nap. I don't care what you say, I'm taking that nap.

SPEAKER_02

See, I'm like that at 29. I'm gonna be at 50.

SPEAKER_11

I was just about to say that shit. I'm telling you, that nap is something good for you.

SPEAKER_02

Oh shit. Are we ready to get into these topics, yo? Because we got a lot.

SPEAKER_11

Before we get into topics, what are you? Because this is this has been on like like my mind, and it's like it's really like it's it's I gotta I gotta get it out. I gotta get it. Okay, um, like Rich. Are you Puerto Rican man? Nah, bruh. You got any type like Spanish in you or something? No, no, I just grew up around Puerto Rican motherfuckers. I can tell, man, because you like the only black man in America that's like loving Drake so much, bruh. Whoa, what they gotta do with Puerto Ricans, man. I'm saying, because that's Drake's fan base. He only like oh only Puerto Rican girls and Puerto Ricans deal with Drake. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_14

You ain't wrong. What you mean, bruh? They have bad bunny now. What you talking about? I'm saying, bruh.

SPEAKER_02

Bad bunny's Puerto Rican Drake, bro.

SPEAKER_14

Exactly. So we can take Drake black. You feel me?

SPEAKER_11

Ain't no we in this equation, bruh. Ain't no we. What are we French? Because we we ain't no we. Ain't no we. Did you listen to Iceman? Bruh, I only like one Drake song and one Drake hook. That's it. Wait, but what is it though? I I got it. Marvin's room. That's it. That's it. Fuck that nigga. That's it. And and the hook is when my man was with uh what two chains? Oh, uh what, no lie? That's it. That's that's that's that's all I'm fucking with. He named some bankers. I ain't even gonna lie to you.

SPEAKER_02

Look, I ain't gonna hold you. Like, I give him a little grace. I don't as much as I don't like Drake, I don't think he's the most terrible fucking artist in the world. Except for like After Nothing Was the Same, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_14

Man. Do you know, do you know your son was going through the album review and he was naming a son? He was the Drake fan that nigga, he heard the episode.

SPEAKER_11

I was bad. I was like, yeah. Okay, look, look, okay, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta like let this be known that like although he's my son, sometimes he strays. And I allow that. I allow that because you gotta as a father. You know what I'm saying? Because sooner or later he's gonna realize that damn, I fucked up and I'm coming back.

SPEAKER_14

You think every dad has that moment where it's like I'm gonna let him be, but he's gonna come back and I'll be right here.

SPEAKER_11

You know, I you know, although he has my name, I still let him like get his own thing off. And then he'd be like, damn, I should have listened to my father. I'm coming back. I'm coming back.

SPEAKER_14

Sometimes.

SPEAKER_11

You know.

SPEAKER_14

So I ain't gonna lie. Now I'm a grown ass man. I do circle back to my dad.

SPEAKER_11

Like, you know, I ain't gonna say you was right, but you wasn't wrong. Yeah, that's and and you know, that's that's that's that's to be understandable. You know what I mean? But I get it though. I just you know, I just wanted to know whether you just like had some Puerto Rican heritage in you, cause like, dog, you can't be with Drake that long.

SPEAKER_02

He was loading that up all week.

SPEAKER_14

What you mean? Listen, listen, I I'm not the normal Drake fan. I knew that motherfucker for when it was mixed hate days before best I ever had, before Marvin's room, I just see Cripple Jimmy. See, I didn't watch Crippled Jimmy. So I differentiate. I'm like, damn, that sounds like an ugly era for you. We had to get out of that one.

SPEAKER_11

Well, I ain't have a choice but to see Trip uh Crippled Jimmy, because you know, somebody was watching Cripple Jimmy, so I know.

SPEAKER_02

Who's watching Degrassi? You know, that was indigo. One of y'all.

SPEAKER_14

Now hold on. Before we started, we was listening to that last Kendrick on. What do you think of that G and X?

SPEAKER_11

I'm not gonna go I'm first of all, let me let me explain something to you.

SPEAKER_02

Here we go.

SPEAKER_11

I'm not I'm not a I'm not a rat guy. I'm a hip hop guy. Okay, listen to rap. He makes you think.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, can't you I mean I know there's no big three now, but can't you say all of them do that? All of the big three? Well, which three are you talking about?

SPEAKER_11

You mean cold? See, because I can ask you about three, and you know you you gonna give me cold, you gonna give me Kendrick, and then you might give me like an MGK or some shit like that. Oh shit. You know what I'm saying? So I okay, we know the two. We know the two, but who's the third?

SPEAKER_02

I was saying Drake.

SPEAKER_11

That's the big three. Come on, man. You wanna really put Drake in a big three? He is the big three.

SPEAKER_02

I don't want to put him in that, but statistically, that's what he is.

SPEAKER_11

Okay, he's number three at this time.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. For like the last ten years, yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Whoa, whoa, whoa. See, that's where the hate comes in. Whoa, whoa. Last ten years? They all rotated. They all had their three times. Okay, well, I I I fucks with two out of the three. Okay. Okay. You know what I'm saying? Who's your big three? If you had to go from hip hop from the from your age from now, who's still your big three? Well, see.

SPEAKER_11

You can tell Rock Him, I know. No, no, I thought about this. I thought about it because I knew this question was gonna come up. I thought about this. So my original big three. As a matter of fact, this is my Mount Rushmore of hip-hop. You know what I'm saying? It's KRS one.

SPEAKER_02

I knew it.

SPEAKER_11

That's that's right. You're not gonna get better than KRS one. Right? Then after that, you have to give me Hello Hood J. Okay. You have to give me Ryan DMC, okay? And then you have to give me Eric D.

SPEAKER_14

Ryan. See, that's not fair. He's name the fucking all fathers of this shit, man. That's that's me. That's what I wrong with.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, that's what I wrote with. You know, you're not you to me you're not gonna get better than that. But now once you get to like the second level, now we talking. Oh yeah, yeah. You know what I'm saying? Of course. You know, and then like DMX. Yeah. You know, you if I don't if I don't go a day without listening to DMX, it's it's not it's not gonna be a good day.

SPEAKER_02

Might just be closer than I might get it too.

SPEAKER_11

You know, so you know But that's that's but now, you know, and again on that other level, I don't know how to like break it up, so I won't break it up, but I'll just say NWA. Uh first yeah, second.

SPEAKER_02

See, I was about to say, if I had to break that up, I would say cube is the best out of all of us.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. I'm not gonna break that up because although Cube is the best writer, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, he's the best writer of the group, Dre is the best producer. Who's the best performer? Well yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, because I mean if easy to and if easy to learn how to do it, it wouldn't have been done. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know, I mean you could have been like a Dre and just kept on making love songs, you know, but that ain't gonna happen. You know what I'm saying? So, you know, but that's that's me now. So then, you know, when you go to my third year, then you got the the Kendrick's and the Drake's, you know what I'm saying? And then you got the South, 'cause you got the T I's and you know you know, 'cause when the South came in, the South came in on some old sneaky shit. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_02

And the South came in at the right time.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, yeah, because the East and the West was beefing, you know, and everybody was like, but what about South?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, don't forget about us down here.

SPEAKER_11

So, you know, that's that's the thing, you know. But nowadays and today, I ain't I ain't really like, you know, it something has to like knock me over the head and be like, listen to me before I listen to it. You know, that's why I got him. You know, that's why I got him. Yo, Pop, you gotta listen to this. I'm like, we gotta play this. You know, so if he don't tell me to listen to it, then I'm not listening to it. And then I gotta listen to it, critique it, then I'll get back at you.

SPEAKER_14

I gotta I got a TI song that just came out that you would love, yo.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, you know what the funny part is? I was just playing him this year, and he was giving me the most straightest face when I played it.

SPEAKER_00

JY Turn me up.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, this is everywhere, though. Yo, this song is everywhere, yo.

SPEAKER_14

Keep it everywhere, bro. Don't keep it near Maserato.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, it won't go away though.

SPEAKER_14

They're trying to force it.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, they're forcing it real good. I ain't gonna lie to you.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, because the Fucking choruses.

SPEAKER_02

Look at them, look at them, look at them, look at them.

SPEAKER_14

That's that candy rap.

SPEAKER_02

Oh shit. I like that.

SPEAKER_14

You know what I mean? Because it is.

SPEAKER_11

It's candy rap. Like, you know, like back when little Wayne and them was doing that little bubblegum rapping, you know? And I'm like, come on, man. Just stop. You don't think Wayne a legend? Wayne is a legend. But I'm talking about that, you know. Oh yeah. With your boy, your Nikki, you know. Yeah. You know, that bubblegum rap.

SPEAKER_14

That shit was hot when we were younger. What?

SPEAKER_02

Every girl in the world? Yo, genuinely though, like, can you listen to a lot of projects from that time? Like, now that I go back to it, like 2016's kind of like my cutoff.

SPEAKER_14

Um, 15, 2013 was fire too. 2012 and 13, uh, 13, when Kanye had the whole cruise summer.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, yeah, cruise summer was all.

SPEAKER_14

And the Watch the Throne air was fire.

SPEAKER_02

And we'll never see that shit again.

SPEAKER_14

Never, ever. Never. But everything, everything around there, like young money, that shit didn't really age well like that.

SPEAKER_02

I'm talking about from beats to I feel like at the time, like, Wayne did everything that he could just to try to make Nikki and Drake stars, and it worked. But it kind of went on his downfall.

SPEAKER_11

Well, I think that was because Wayne was trying to like take over for like Diddy.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I mean? And you trying to make people that are like not up to that caliber of rap. Something that they not, you know. And you trying to help them, you know, like like 50 Cent did with G Unit.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I'm saying? I'm gonna help you out. I'm gonna, I'm gonna, you know, I'm gonna give you something here, I'm gonna give you something there, but you gotta take it over the top.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know, and then you know, the game thought that he was the game, and that's why he just like faded away. You know?

SPEAKER_02

I would say that if Drake didn't end up being the star out of all of that. Nikki probably still could have been a star if she didn't just fuck up everything, but I feel like I feel like up until now, Nikki could have been the star.

SPEAKER_14

I feel like Nikki was the I feel like Nikki was the counterpart star.

SPEAKER_02

She was, because she was the only one dropping like, well, not the only one. Like her and Drake were both dropping albums back to back. It's just that Drake had quantity over quality for a very long time there.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah. And Wayne messed up too when it was more uh quantity over quality.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, but the thing is, like, even with Wayne, it didn't matter what Wayne said, like it was hard. Yeah, that's hard.

SPEAKER_11

Like that was well, that's because Wayne, no matter what, knew that if this whole shit falls apart, I'm gonna go on my own and I'm gonna make it. You know, so I mean, I'm just basically carrying y'all so y'all can get y'all shit right. You know. Because Wayne, Wayne, he speaks in in tongue. Yeah. You know what I mean? He speaks in tongue. And if you don't catch it at the right time, you gonna sleep, you're gonna be lost. Yeah. You know, you know, the famous line, you know, real G's moving silence like lasagna. Lasagna. Now, how many people had to actually sit there and think about how the hell is lasagna even spelled?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, I on God, me. I was what when we were younger, I was like, how the fuck do you spell?

SPEAKER_02

Nigga, you ain't know how to spell lasagna? You never watched Garfield?

SPEAKER_14

I never peeped that shit had I I never put the rhyme scheme together. When he said it, you said he said where you're like, wait, what? Like, he was like, leave him dead in the living room. Get it dead in the living room. I was like, damn, no way you just told me to get it. When you told me to double back.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, so you know, Wayne, Wayne was like, he was ahead of that shit. You know what I mean? And he actually made niggas think. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? And not only did he make him think, he actually made him go get a thesaurus and and look at the spelling or some shit. You know what I mean? So you was just like, yeah. But then you had to sit there, you had to be like, if he's up here, where is Nikki and Drake? Because they not coming up here.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I'm saying? Because they now they now here we go with the bubblegum rap. You know, we gotta make up some rhymes and we gotta like try to like let people know where we're coming from. Like, no, no, you don't need to know, because we don't need to know that.

SPEAKER_14

You know? Yeah. Now I want to ask you this. Out of all the OGs that are still doing music, do you uh have you heard anything recent? Like, Nas dropped like six albums in the past four years. Is there anyone, is there any OGs that you grew up with that is like, you know, I'm still rocking with his new music? Or is it just like, yo, keep the old shit playing, because that's the one that did it to me.

SPEAKER_11

Right now, in in my music, like how can I put this in my the repertoire? Not not even a repertoire, it's just like I go by the day. See what I'm saying? So before when I would listen to hip hop all day long, you know what I'm saying? Siri, satellite, radio, hip hop all day long, to the point where I knew what time this song was gonna be playing, because they played the same thing every day. Yeah, you know what I mean? So I knew that. I got away from that, and now it's I'm shazamming everything that I hear so I can put it on a list. Yeah, but now it's like I opened up even wider because now I'm into the to to my country. Oh yeah, country bag? Oh, I'm starting, I'm getting into the country, right? I'm getting into the country.

SPEAKER_02

I'm not gonna lie to you. After going upstate, bro, that's all they play out there.

SPEAKER_14

What, like shabbozzi?

SPEAKER_02

Yo, yeah, shaboozie. I'm talking about Ellen Langley, fucking like just country all day. Morgan Wallen, it's country all day long up there.

SPEAKER_11

Damn. Yeah, and back, you know, growing up, I didn't do the country. You know what I mean? But when you sit there now and you listen to the country, you like, damn, this shit's pretty banging. You know what I mean? So I'm listening to the country, you know, and I'm getting into like, um, I and when I say this, don't, don't, don't like take me wrong, but this is the way it is. The white girl pop. And no, it's not Taylor Swift. I ain't fucking with her, but it's the white girl pop. Give me some examples because I fuck with the white girl pop. I ain't gonna lie to you. I was I was I was I was dealing with Miley for a while. I was dealing with Katy Perry for a while. Oh, he was deep in the white girl. You know, oh yeah, I was deep into it.

SPEAKER_02

Deep, deep in the milk, bro. Deep in the milk.

SPEAKER_11

You know, but it's it's this if it if it hits me and and you're like, I'm like, damn, that's that's that's like if it sounds good, right? It's gotta sound good, and then it's gotta make sense. Yeah, you know what I mean? I don't I don't want nothing that's not gonna make sense. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_14

You should have shown him some Sabrina Carpenter, bro. The fuck?

SPEAKER_02

He's not ready for Sabrina Carpenter, bro.

SPEAKER_14

It's my favorite milk right now. That's like 2% right there. That's 2% is nothing.

SPEAKER_11

You know, and I always got the always got the rock, you know. You know, and you could tell, like, I'm deep into the rock because you deal with him. And he got it from me. I knew he got it from me, you know. So, you know, growing up in Bayonne, if you don't listen to rock, you know, it's this like I say, you from Jersey. What's up with Bon Jovi? Oh, they legends. No, I just want to know if you could deal, because if you don't, if you don't know Bon Jovi, that means you're not from Jersey. Nah, I know Bon Jovi because my pops listen to rock. We got to kick you out of Jersey.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, bro, even we went on a cruise, bro, and I shit you now. There was a moment where they were just like Jersey, and that's all they played.

SPEAKER_14

Fucking Bon Jovi.

SPEAKER_02

They didn't say a fucking word. That's all it was.

SPEAKER_14

You gotta let it rock at that point. I ain't gonna lie, dude. We just need the Jersey shout out. And it's like, yo, put that Bon Jovi on shuffle. That's it.

SPEAKER_11

That's it. And it's crazy because Bon Jovi took over for Bruce Springsteen. Bruce Springsteen's on New Jersey, right?

SPEAKER_02

He's from Jersey, but like not really. No fucking way. He's from like, I think central. It might be south.

SPEAKER_11

Bruce, Bruce Springsteen was the Jersey legend. Okay, yes, that when you talk about OG, everybody loves Bruce Springsteen.

SPEAKER_02

I forgot where I think I forgot where he's.

SPEAKER_14

Give me your top three rock all-time legends. Like, if if they shit on, then yo, everybody shut the fuck up. I gotta hear this real quick.

SPEAKER_11

Like, Bon Jovi. Of course. Oh, I fuck with Metallica.

SPEAKER_02

I got my Metallica bag from him.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

But see, now we're gonna go on. We got the Eagles, we got AC DC, we got Black Sabbath, you know, we we got um, damn, I can't remember my name.

SPEAKER_02

You was fucking with Molly Crew?

SPEAKER_11

Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, I'll be right back. Because he fucked with them. That's why he's like, yeah, don't forget these motherfuckers.

SPEAKER_11

You know, I get my man, I can't drive 55. I can't remember his name offhand, but you know, yo, yo, the rock back then, you know, because like I hung out with mostly white boys growing up, rock back then was my shit. You know, but then when I would leave Bayonne and go hang out in Jersey City, and I start listening to rock, what the hell? I'm like, don't worry about it, dog. You don't know about that. See, you don't understand, I get in. Don't worry about it, you don't know about that, you know.

SPEAKER_14

But you know, funny funny you said that. One of my closest friends is Puerto Rican. That motherfucker put me on the mad rock, yo.

SPEAKER_02

I do have one question because I always wondered this. Were you in were you in New York when Ready to Die came out? Good question.

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. I wanted to ask how the energy was in New York when that came out. Because that came out like right after he died.

SPEAKER_11

Nah, but like right before. My New York era was when I was growing up when I was in high school. When I was in high school, because you know, I was back then, I was in the Latin quarters. I was in the Latin quarters when that shit got shot up, and then it got shut down quick, you know, and then you know, I was back there with that. But my New York era was like I was in the clubs, and I some of the Puerto Rican shit came out because I was with the uh uh 1018. I was in club 1018, that's when I went to fly that dust, flight that dust. You know what I mean? So we I was there with that. And but then that again, that was my funk era. Yeah, you know, because that's something I was like indulging in the weed a whole lot, you know. So that was I was mainly in there with the funk, so I was a parlor and funk adelict guy back then, you know. But you know, we all grow, we all learn, and you know, we asked out and went to the navy and you know, stopped the weed smoking and grew up a little bit, and you know. Had to put the funk down? Man, look, I had to. You know, I know that drives you crazy now that that is legal. Yeah, you know what I mean. It's legal and I kill I still can't smoke.

SPEAKER_14

Imagine that. You ain't missing nothing illegal weed ass. I miss when that shit, I miss when it's the cops pass by, you're like, oh, put the shit out, put the shit out. They ain't no oomph. Now they just mixing every string together to where you're like, bro, I'm fucking stuck on the couch.

SPEAKER_02

Granted, niggas just wanted to smoke because it wasn't legal.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, like I'm a rebel by heart. That shit was fun.

SPEAKER_11

Now it's like ah, I can smoke, I I guess, but 420 used to mean something back in the day. Yeah, you know what I mean? We used to go to Central Park, helicopter used to come, drop the weed out the helicopter.

SPEAKER_14

Wait, you were there for that?

SPEAKER_11

You don't know.

SPEAKER_14

Nigga, that's on the list. Yo, me and my friends growing up, we'd be like, nah, that gotta be a member, because ain't no fucking way helicopters coming over.

SPEAKER_11

Just drops it, just drops it out. It was all the weed that they confiscated. You know what I mean? So instead of taking it and and and taking it to the furnace, you know, like they do with the old money, just drop it outside, man. Don't worry about it. It's 420 day. It'll all be gone.

SPEAKER_14

I will crumble if I'm locked in here and somebody throw my shit out of helicopter.

SPEAKER_11

You know, because you gotta remember back in the day, I mean, weed was legal in New York as long as it was only like a joint on a corner.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

Joining the corner, cops ain't bothering you. Yeah, all right, smoky joint, then you know.

SPEAKER_14

You can't have the whole pack, right? Like now it's like, ah, you crazy.

SPEAKER_11

No, that's when a nickel was a nickel. You know, you buy a nickel bag, you're getting at least seven, eight joints out of it. You know what I mean? He sounds like us with the eighths back then. You know, you had nickels and you had dimes. You had quarter ounces and you had ounces, you know, and you got your money's worth.

SPEAKER_14

Now you might as well forget about it. Yeah, now you're getting like two, three strong joints out of eighth. That shit don't make no sense. Because I back in my day, seven, eight blunts out the eighth. Now you saying this off a nick. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_11

And Nick, see, it depends. See, because if you get a Nick, and if you wanted to make it last, you can get, I'm saying you can get about 11 pin joints out of a nick. You know what I'm saying? If you want to do some baseball bat, you're gonna get about eight. That's still that's still crazy. And we and and and we ain't do we ain't do the we ain't do the what's uh y'all y'all do the the the cigar joints now. What's that? Uh the Rellos? Yeah, yeah. Y'all do the we did pink easy waters.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, them shits are shorter too.

SPEAKER_11

So we got the bats. Yeah, we had the bats. We had the easy waters, you know what I'm saying? When y'all started putting that shit in blunts, I'm like, God damn. You just put the whole nick in the blunt. This the whole nick, huh? You know, I'm talking to one of the young cats. Young cats was like, yo, how much weight you moving? What? How much weight?

SPEAKER_02

Like, is he pushing P or no?

SPEAKER_11

I don't know about weights. I know about nickels, I know about dimes, I know about quarters, and I know bounces. What are you talking about? So what more weight you need at that? You know, whatever y'all doing now, y'all doing. I ain't got nothing to do with it. You know, you know, I I think the last time it was two times that I smoked weed, and it was one time I did something called a dab.

SPEAKER_14

I know about the dab that they get them white boys.

SPEAKER_02

I would never. Yo, I would never, not a dab.

SPEAKER_11

I did a I did a dab and my man, because I was I was actually I was in um Houston, Texas. And it was doing the south by southwest time, but you know, it's this time I was driving a truck, so I was like, you know, but my man was like, yo, we gonna go ahead, blah blah blah.

SPEAKER_14

My man's gonna put my man put like a piece of wax, just a little, just a little dime size, yeah.

SPEAKER_11

And like it heated up, and he was like, yo, man, this inhale that shit. I'm like, all right.

unknown

Oh god.

SPEAKER_11

And it was over. It was it was over. Um I was supposed to deliver the load the next morning. I think that load was three days late.

SPEAKER_14

I don't fuck with the dab high either, cuz you'll sit there and cough, and as you're sitting there, that should get you higher and higher and higher. You're like, yo, whoa, whoa, hold the fuck on. I'm floating right now.

SPEAKER_11

It was like it was like smoking a new port after a joint the first time. That's really how I feel. Like, I'm I'm done, I'm done, I'm done. You know, then the last time smoking was I'm gonna tell a story. My wife's gonna get mad at me. But um, I turned 50 and she threw me a birthday party. We was at my sister's house, and um I was a witness, yo. Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Hold on now. I want to hear this story. 50th, you gotta go go big or go home. Hey man.

SPEAKER_11

50th birthday, you know. I um I'm at my sister's house, and my wife threw me a birthday party. Snowing. It was snowing that day, because February 19th, my, you know, it was snowing. I had my cousins up from Maryland and everything. And then um my sister-in-law, she was there, and me and my sister-in-law hung out tight back in the day. So we smoked some weed. We went out to the backyard, we smoked some weed, this, that, and that thing. Well, we called it the shed. We was in the shed, and then the next thing you know, everybody left the shed except for me. Because I was out. I was out, knocked out, tore down, sleeping. I couldn't move. I was like, damn. I asked my brother in law, yo, what kind of weed was that, man? Because I ain't never had no shed like that. What year was this? This was eight years ago. When I turned 50, eight years ago. You know, and that was it. My wife was mad because I think I was in the party for about a good 15, 20 minutes, maybe a half hour. Went outside, smoked weed, came back, couldn't come back. Couldn't come back. It's your birthday, so what? Yeah, she was upset.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Yo, bro, I ain't gonna lie to you, bro. That was that was like a few hours, bro. Oh, when you was down? Bro, I walked upstairs, bro. My mom was just heated. I went back downstairs. I was like, No.

SPEAKER_14

You get a good sleep too when you two stone, you're like, I gotta, I gotta rest my eyes.

SPEAKER_11

She was still mad.

SPEAKER_01

That's a classic.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, but what topics we got, bro?

SPEAKER_14

All right, so you want to get into the celebrity news, the TV movies?

SPEAKER_02

I'm about to say, what do you want to start with? You want to start with film, celebrities, games?

SPEAKER_14

Why the fuck does Elon Musk uh become a children?

SPEAKER_02

As of yesterday, by the way.

SPEAKER_09

As of fucking yesterday.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, I don't know. I'm speechless too. Why the fuck? Yo, if I show Elon my bank account right now, he will commit suicide.

SPEAKER_02

He's still trying to gather his thoughts, yo. He's like, what?

SPEAKER_11

Yo, this is like, this is like, what does this guy ever go away?

SPEAKER_14

Nah.

SPEAKER_11

You know, and that's the thing. He does, he never goes away. Just just go somewhere. Just just go.

SPEAKER_14

Like with this much money, you can literally erase your whole, you could, you could just be eradicated and never exist. Like George Soros, like how they just talk about him, but you don't know how he looks. Like, you can just they don't want me to have that much money.

SPEAKER_02

The crazy part is I don't even know how he became a trillionaire. Like, is it some shit that had to do with SpaceX?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, it became a public, um, a public stock exchange. So what he was telling people, hey, put your money into here, you're gonna become a millionaire. In doing so, you manipulate the masses to put their money, even if even if one dude was putting a dollar in there, you have a million people putting multiple dollars in there.

SPEAKER_11

So you kind of I'm trying to figure out them off to still go to jail for that shit.

SPEAKER_14

What?

SPEAKER_11

That's kind of like inside trading, eh?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, yeah. No, yeah. But when I guess she didn't have enough money. Yo, I I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

I'm about to say he do all the illegal shit, he become a trillionaire. I don't know, man.

SPEAKER_14

Fuck the rules. That's all they be telling me.

SPEAKER_02

Now, is he like the first trillionaire like in the US or like ever? Ever.

SPEAKER_14

Ever, ever. Yeah, no, that's dangerous. They say he could buy every movie studio right now and still have like 60 billion dollars. You know how crazy that sounds.

SPEAKER_11

You know, it's crazy because like this dude can mess up no matter what he does. He he just messes up and it's like he gets over with it, and then he'll go on and do something else and make more money off of what he did because he messed up the last time.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

I'm trying to figure that one out.

SPEAKER_14

It's hard. Sounds familiar.

SPEAKER_11

I think the problem is that, you know, when the when the when the black people start doing that shit, the same thing the white people doing, you know, we can't allow that to happen. So, you know, we send them to jail. You know what I'm saying? Because I'm like, you know, most people gonna get mad, but I'm like, damn, it's free puffy, man. Only thing he did was bought too much baby oil.

SPEAKER_14

Yo, I want to yo, I ain't gonna talk about Diddy too soon. I swear I wanted your opinion, yo.

SPEAKER_02

That's yo, that's a that's a good transition, bro, because this story was fucking wild. I'm not gonna lie to you.

SPEAKER_14

If we're bringing it up now that you said that, I don't know if you saw Dave Chappelle's last stand up, but he said the reason they caught Diddy is because. He was doing the escort shit, but one of them was like in Mississippi. And they set a law in Mississippi to stop another black man who was also a boxer, but he kept fucking dudes' wives. And they was trying to stop him. But they kept sending opponents to him. They couldn't stop. He was knocking niggas down and taking their wives. It was like, yo, we have to stop this man. So they made a law to where if like if you're with a woman at a certain degree in a certain state, you get you get fined or you get arrested for it. And that's the same law that they caught Diddy with with one of these um escorts going back and forth state to state.

SPEAKER_11

But he didn't escort them. They came on their own. Where old girl said, oh, I'm mad. How this dude gonna sit there and tell me to come on out, see him. He gonna take me out, he's gonna do this, he's gonna do that, and and give me $5,000. But wait a minute, he didn't say he was gonna give you $5,000. You asked him for $5,000, he was like, get out of here. You know what I'm saying? So, like, that's basically Diddy was like, yo, I'm having a party. If you want to come to the party, you come to the party. Now we're gonna do some freaky shit at the party, you know what I'm saying? And the only thing I'm gonna supply you with is some baby oil. And that's it. So what did he do wrong?

SPEAKER_02

Well, speaking of Diddy and baby oil. So what was it earlier this week? Mm-hmm. So earlier this week, somebody leaked the sucks tape. Basically.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, you're talking about when uh with 50 cents baby moms and the other uh the other dude. Yep. You think so, right? Here's my issue though. When when it got public, she did a whole I don't know how this happened to me, but then put up like the OnlyFans link.

SPEAKER_02

So that was kind of my issue, because like you you you sat there and said that I don't know how this happened. Like I was talking to somebody, they said that they were gonna leak it. I don't want them to leak it. But then he go ahead and promote your OnlyFans. So you're in cahoots at this point.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, it's it's always the clout and attention that makes people uh fall susceptible.

SPEAKER_11

That's the Ray J. Kim Kardashian.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

That's the Ray J. Kim Kardashian because you know, if if Kim Kardashian ain't never came hard as hell on a damn sex tape, she wouldn't be who she is.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I mean? You think her mom orchestrated that whole thing? She's the best business woman in America. Because she will pimp her children with no problem. And successfully too. You know what I'm saying? She couldn't pimp Bruce, so Bruce turned into a woman. Now look at Bruce. Bruce is a goddamn woman of the year. Ain't that some shit?

SPEAKER_02

This is either about to be the best episode or the worst fucking episode, and we get canceled.

SPEAKER_14

Somebody go agree with him too, though.

SPEAKER_11

The Kardashians done been in every sports outlet in America. I'm yeah, I'm just waiting for him to get a soccer player right now.

SPEAKER_14

For real. I need them to leave the rappers alone, yo, because the music gets ass afterwards.

SPEAKER_11

And look, leave the NBA alone too, because after they get with them, them brothers don't have no career after that. Lamar Odom's still trying to get a Skittles contract.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, you know I watched this doc. And I was just like, yo, bro, like you did this all to yourself. Like Lamar Odom shit. Yeah, bro. Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I'm saying? Another brother from New York, the fallen. He he done fail. That's it. I mean, come on, man. He's falling pretty hard. Yo, you mess around with that Kardashian's brother, something's gonna happen. Look at Kanye, he ain't been right since.

SPEAKER_14

He's trying to get right now, and it's still like, yo, he's still off.

SPEAKER_02

That's the thing with Kanye, though. Like, it doesn't matter how much he tries, it's it's it's not gonna work, bro. That's cause he's too smart.

SPEAKER_11

He's too smart. He's too smart for his own good. You know what I mean? And the man can produce, the man can could could can make music to the nines. You know what I'm saying? But he tries to be perfect. And it's like you don't need it to be perfect, you just need it to be good. Yeah, you know what I mean? But he don't want to be good, he wanna be great. I don't know if like you know, hanging around with Jay-Z too much made him want to be greater than Jay. Yo, you can't do it. Yeah, no, he can't. You know what I mean? So just like, you know, because Jay Jay Jay figured out the formula. You know what I mean? And he figured it out, he took it to the lab, he improved on it, and then there you go.

SPEAKER_14

Now, how you feel about the uh the rumor that Jay-Z might be coming back this year? For what? Another album.

SPEAKER_02

He's supposed to be dropping another album because you ain't seen take the locks out for what reason?

SPEAKER_11

Why would he need to drop another album? Honestly, honestly, why would Jay need to drop another album?

SPEAKER_02

He said he hasn't dropped one since what, 2017? 2017.

SPEAKER_11

So he's gonna try to drop an album to get closer to his wife's on a Forbes list? Because you know his wife is worth more money than he is. Inevitably.

SPEAKER_02

So I think it's more of a celebration, though, because he's already going uh to Yankee Stadium for two nights.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, he's doing a the Reasonable Doubt uh 30th anniversary and then the uh the blueprint 25th anniversary. 25th anniversary.

SPEAKER_11

And you know why he's going to Yankee Stadium?

unknown

Uh-uh.

SPEAKER_11

Because he did it already. Word he did it already. His numbers, his numbers. If he didn't do the original Yankee Stadium, his numbers will sell out Yankee Stadium five times over. So that's why he's doing it. Nobody does things unless they're sure they can sell it out. You know what I mean? Yeah. Why did Kevin Hart go do Madison Square Garden when he did it? Because at that time he was hot and he knew he could sell it out.

SPEAKER_02

Why did Kevin Hart do a lot of things as of right now?

SPEAKER_11

You know, but that's that's why that's why entertainers do things because they know it could be done. Because if it couldn't be done, that means they would have to take a chance. And if they gotta take a chance, who's gonna back them on that chance? You see what I'm saying? That's why if it can't be done, we're not gonna do it.

SPEAKER_14

You think you think that kind of devalues everything now? Cause nobody wants to take that risk that well, oh, this might fall flat or it might not.

SPEAKER_11

Well, due to the fact that like rappers, music people in general are not making money unless they do tours. There you go. If the tour's not gonna sell out, we're not gonna do it. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

So that's it. You you goddamn millennial kids, y'all on fucked up the whole industry. Yo, what did we do? Industry fucked us up. Shit, because I ain't gonna sit there, you know. I like you said, I'm an OG. I'm gonna tell you right now, I ain't gonna go buy that motherfucker album. I'm gonna listen to that shit on Spotify with the commercials. With the commercials, it's nuts.

SPEAKER_02

Crazy work.

SPEAKER_11

Fuck the premium easier, give me the commercial. I'm listening to the commercials. Nah, nah. If I can listen to the album for free, why should I go pay for it? Yeah, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_02

Speaking of Jay, we should probably play his freestyle too. But what are you saying?

SPEAKER_11

Uh you okay? Yeah, play play the yeah, play play the freestyle. You did you hear the roots picnic freestyle? Uh, yeah, that's what I'm saying. Play the freestyle because I want to know why my man tried to go straight to the top. And you know who I'm talking about. You got to.

unknown

Why?

SPEAKER_11

Because you're gonna try to cover from what what happened when you got bodied by Kendrick?

SPEAKER_14

Hey, man, you gotta just go to the next the next big thing.

SPEAKER_11

That's not the one to mess with. I know, but he he you know, he shot a shot. Yeah, put get put play.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, your man's not getting no love today, bro. He your man's been getting shot at since like two. It's cool.

SPEAKER_14

Yo, listen, Donnie shows so much love to my boy. I'm like, damn, yo, we could we could do whatever. Oh boy, yo. I think he fuck with ice manipulation.

SPEAKER_13

About having too much in his dream. You know how dumb that it is? I don't know what fumble is what I get to play. S W M. I'll number the S and the M. You know number show me even beginning. What do you say?

SPEAKER_14

You know number, show me even beginning blueprint one of the greatest items of all time. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_13

You don't know.

SPEAKER_02

You had a few shots of this. What did Dame do?

SPEAKER_14

What didn't Dame do? Yeah, Dame. Unfortunately, Dame has turned to a ho ass nigga. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_11

Dame was a hoe ass nigga when Dame got he got he got turned out by Johnny Jackson. That's number one. And then he sold how do you how do you sell a company well sell your half of the company to your partner, right? Right? Then your partner takes it over, makes it just a tad bit better than what it was, then sells you back the whole entire thing for more than what he gave you for it, because it got that much better. Then you sell it back to him for less than you paid for it, and then you bought it back for more than what you sold it for. Dane just made Jay's pocket rise, and that's all he did. That's all he did. Because he was humble. He exactly, exactly. He he made nothing off of the company, nothing, but paid more out of his pocket for a failing company. And Jay made all the money. So what didn't Dame do? You know what I'm saying? He should he should have stayed with his sister-law's cousin, Stacy. What is that? Who's that? His cousin. I think it's his cousin. Yeah, he should have stayed with her, silly ass. They have no business ethic. You know what I mean? And what people are forgetting is that Jay's been a hustler. That's how he made his way to the top.

SPEAKER_14

He hustled. What you just said is a flip back to a flip, back to ownership. Like you just gave a drug dealer two flips.

SPEAKER_11

Exactly. Exactly. And he was the only one that made the money. And and and and all the while you thought that you was gonna make something out of this company, but you didn't. Because what did you buy from the company? You know what I mean? Yeah. Because at the time when he bought it from Dane, it was just a record company. Then he built it up because he went into what the the the um the sports thing and the whole line. He started going crazy. Right. But so now when Dane bought it back, what did Dane buy back? Because he damn sure didn't do the the sports shit. Yeah. And weren't even the artists attached to it at that time. Exactly. Rockefeller had no artists at that time. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_13

So what did he do? Credit, credit, credit.

SPEAKER_02

That's all I heard. That's all I heard. Dame's a fool.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, pretty much. Pretty much. I mean, uh, only thing he got now, what, is our collection? Oh, Dame. That's it. Yeah, that's it.

SPEAKER_02

I didn't know what Dame was doing.

SPEAKER_14

I know sometimes he drops a rap song here and there, but he got a few, um, he got a few, uh, he has a movie studio, but it's like it's like Tubi type movies. I ain't gonna lie to you.

SPEAKER_11

Everybody has a movie studio.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah. Even 50. Even Cat Williams. Oh, yeah, I forgot about that. Yeah, I forgot about that too.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, yeah. So movies is a thing to go into now. But don't forget the blueprint now for movie studios has been already written by the same Joker who they sat there and they they try to make fun of because he wanted to do movies in a dress.

SPEAKER_02

I had a post from Flo. Also I had to read for y'all. Shout out to Flo. Nah, she asked me to read this shit, and this is hilarious. I'm not gonna lie to you. So she posted on Threads last night, right? She said, Working in restaurants over the years has me thoroughly convinced that white people do not know how to control or discipline their children.

SPEAKER_14

So then I'm saying my throat. That's all, that's all.

SPEAKER_02

So then when she posted it, she posted it on Instagram and said, like, what the fuck is up with them? Kids running around, blowing table candles out, reaching for food as I'm trying to put it down, snatching things from my hands, the list goes on. Right? She said this in response this morning.

SPEAKER_00

Spoke my threads this morning, y'all. The white people on there are mad at me that calling me racist.

SPEAKER_02

And I'm really She said the white people called me racist.

SPEAKER_14

Hey, I've been working at restaurants since 16 years old. She was not lying. Yup, she was not lying at all. I saw it and I was like, word, and I I saw it, liked it, kept scrolling, because I it's the truth, unfortunately.

SPEAKER_02

I need flowback.

SPEAKER_11

I don't think that's a subject we should touch because um that's that's been like that since the beginning of the time. You know, since the beginning of the time it's been like that, you know. They they they just are out of control. Totally out of control. There's no control over them because there you go. They they believe in time out. They believe in, you know, take your time, reset, and everything will be alright. But we sat there and we got our ass whipped and it was over. Belts of ass. Simple as that. Simple as that. You know, so you know, that's yeah, that's that's that's what happens. You know, that's what happens.

SPEAKER_14

What topic you want to get into next, yo?

SPEAKER_02

I ain't gonna lie, I have no idea what's on the topic list at this point. We had so many. Yeah, bro, because we have mad shit.

SPEAKER_14

SPEAKER_02

Bro, I think that's a unisex name, bro. I ain't gonna lie to you.

SPEAKER_11

I don't know. Nick Cannon be coming up with some crazy ass names. You know. First he had to find out what type of religion he wanted to follow, and then you went from there. You know, my man was walking around with a turban for a while. I remember that. That was a crazy error. You know what I'm saying? He thought he was a black Israelite, you know. So, you know, he he just he just picks out names from out of the air.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, you're not bullshitting.

SPEAKER_11

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, it's it's crazy.

SPEAKER_14

It's crazy, man. Well, I want to get that rich for I just name my kids some bullshit. So now you gotta live with this.

SPEAKER_02

How do you feel about your man's uh Tom Brady?

SPEAKER_14

What'd he do now?

SPEAKER_02

Yes.

SPEAKER_14

New drink on new drink out here. He got a new drink.

SPEAKER_02

He dropped a drink called Good Nut.

SPEAKER_14

I think it's coconut water.

SPEAKER_09

Pause.

SPEAKER_11

Um I don't know, man. Tom Brady, he's he's you know what? Tom Brady's he's gotta get to be in a normal world now. Think about it. Think about this now.

SPEAKER_02

His world isn't normal. He's going out roasting Kevin Hart. She's dropping it.

SPEAKER_11

That roast is kind of weak. That's the normal. That's the that's the normal. Good nut.

SPEAKER_14

It's a sparkling water. Or organic coconut sparkling water. Yeah, he's okay.

SPEAKER_11

Once you once you get once you get like away from I'm not gonna say what got you there because football got him there, but he was more of a better marketable person because of his wife.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I mean? Yeah. So it's like, you know, like like Eminem was talking about Clarence. You know, Tom Brady was Clarence. He lived in a house where he had real good parents, and he had the perfect life. You know what I'm saying? He had the perfect life until a Joker came in there and tried to teach Judo. You know, and then it was over. You know what I mean? So now that he was always away from people, you know. Tom once football was over, Tom went to wherever. Yeah, you know what I mean? And he didn't deal with the normal people until he came back. You know, so now that he can't, you know, Giselle's gone. Yeah, you know what I mean? Giselle was the one taking him all over the place because of her fame. You know what I mean? He was just a pretty boy and he had to keep up with that. Now he has to come back to normal. You know what I mean? But he's still marketable.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I mean? Because no matter what, the football is still gonna be there. He heard it. Still a goat. Yeah, I was gonna say, you know what I mean? But now it's kind of like when Michael Jordan divorced his wife, and then he started going with buying the the BET and the BETs and the Bulls, and not the Bulls, he was with the um what team did he buy? The basketball team. Charlotte. You know, he did that to be normal. You know what I mean? So that's the whole thing, you know.

SPEAKER_02

So what you're saying is that good nut is not gonna be beneficial for anybody.

SPEAKER_11

It's gonna be good for all of those, um, all of those uh California um Valley people, right? Yeah, those, those, those California's, you know, work out people. Oh, we wanna be like Tom Brady, you know what I mean? So, you know, you know, then you know you might get some girls out there to be like, well, I wonder if it's his good nut. You know what I mean? So, you know. You're a victim. If Tom endorses it, it gotta be good. You know, it gotta be good. You know, what else you got, bro? I'm gonna let you know now. If the Raiders fail, Tom's gonna fail too because that's attached to him. Um Raiders can't fail.

SPEAKER_02

Now, are you saying that like as a fact, or are you just saying that as a Giants fan? I'm saying that as a fact.

SPEAKER_11

So, okay, now, okay, so you got the Raiders. You got we're not talking about any other team in football, but the Raiders, okay? From Oakland, the black hole, the the dominance of the Raiders, to now they are in Vegas. Okay, so they went from the depths of the ghetto to prominent space. You know what I'm saying? So now when you take all of that and you put that together with failure and you got the goat as part of the the the the you know the team, yeah, he he almost part of the team. You know so why wouldn't you get the best players coming towards you? You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

So let it fail.

SPEAKER_02

I do want to loop back because we were talking about OnlyFans earlier when it came to Daphne Joy.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, do you have the you have the chart?

SPEAKER_02

Yo, you know Jersey's just full of horny niggas, bro.

SPEAKER_14

You have the chart because I can find it. Bro, I only got the number, bro. Oh, you got it? Wait, wait, wait, hold on.

SPEAKER_02

No, I just got the the regular number. So apparently, New Jersey residents spent 68.3 million on OnlyFans last year.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, you only got the number? I can break it down. Hold on. Hold on, hold on.

SPEAKER_02

Can you guess which one is uh well actually I was surprised by what number one was. I thought number one was like a completely different thing.

SPEAKER_14

You ready for me to tell you number one?

SPEAKER_02

Wait, who do you think is the horniest out of all the jersey?

SPEAKER_11

I'm gonna go go so it's gotta be South Jersey, somewhere white, like seaside or some shit.

SPEAKER_02

Not even close. Not even close. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_09

North baby.

SPEAKER_14

2.7 million dollars spent on OnlyFans. Damn. It gets worse. This is what I'm about to run.

SPEAKER_11

You know why I would never think them niggas ain't got no jobs.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, so you're like, hold on, hold on. Y'all subscribe to OF with no cash on the shit.

SPEAKER_11

I'm like, yo, I'm like, how do you how do you you can't put you can't put OnlyFans on Family First cards. So how the hell are they number one?

SPEAKER_14

Okay. This is what this is what should get confusing. Because number two, Jersey City.

SPEAKER_02

Are you really confused though?

SPEAKER_14

2.7. I'm confused on how they both got the same number, bruh.

SPEAKER_02

Jersey City was 63.8 mil, gang.

SPEAKER_14

Bruh, that's crazy. They ain't cahoots. Number three is Patison with one mil. Woodbridge 7.42k, and number five, Edison.

SPEAKER_11

You would think that Woodbridge and Edison would be higher than that because they got more money than all the top three. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, they had to save money in some areas, you know?

SPEAKER_11

Yo, that's crazy.

SPEAKER_02

You gotta pay that power bill.

SPEAKER_11

So wait a minute. Where does like South Jersey fall on that?

SPEAKER_14

That's what they don't want to tell us. They just gave us the top five. I'm like, nah, I need to. I feel marginalized right now. You know what?

They just wanted to snitch JC out.

SPEAKER_14

Then you go with Farrah Fawcett, you know, but then you know, coming up, you know, we start realizing that you know we got we got some black women up in there too, you know. Then we start shying away from the white women. So, you know, you know, you got the Nina Long, you know what I'm saying? So it's it's she's gonna she's gonna do her 15 minutes of fame.

SPEAKER_14

Feel like nobody's been catching up with the Cavs after LeBron left. Oh, he's about to go back.

SPEAKER_02

Well, I'll say I have no idea what the Cavs are doing right now.

SPEAKER_14

I hope so. I feel like your retirement thing, you gotta you gotta come back to the Cavs. Like one season.

SPEAKER_11

It's all about money now, though. Yeah. It's all about money. Because he'll stay in LA if they pay him the money.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

But if I was in LA, I wouldn't pay him the money. Let him go. It's time to go. It's time to go. You know, you didn't do what you were supposed to do when you got here, so it's time for you to go. He did get the bubble ring. Come on, man, really? He got the bubblegum ring. You really gonna count that? Bringing it up, see. I mean, okay, let's think about this. Let's think about this. Okay, you think Anthony Davis is actually proud of that ring? Because that's the only one he got.

SPEAKER_14

Oh shit.

SPEAKER_02

That's the only one he got. That wasn't that was a Kyrie Urban ring. That wasn't really anything else.

SPEAKER_11

Flaunting that shit. That's the only one I got. Yeah, you can flaunt it. You can flaunt it, but come on, man. A bubble ring. Really? You know what I mean? That's just like that's just like winning the Super Bowl during the during during the COVID era. Yeah, that's exactly what it is. Really? It's like okay. You know what I mean? There wasn't even no fans in the stadium, bro. Really? Yeah, I was out there scrimmaging every day.

SPEAKER_14

I was just about to say.

SPEAKER_11

Every day looked like practice. You know what I'm saying? Like, come on, man. You can't, you can't, you can't count that. You can't count the bubble ring, bro. You can't, you can't.

SPEAKER_02

You know what I mean? Nah, I didn't see that.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah. They skipped 23 and went straight to 24. So I feel like a joke. They couldn't make a joke. And now 24.

SPEAKER_02

Basically saying that they took too long to write 23, so they just went over the 24.

SPEAKER_14

But there's also a rumor it was supposed to be a crossover with men in black, so they said 24 might start with the men and black dudes just wiping their brains, and now we're just at 24. So they'd be like, what happened to 24?

SPEAKER_11

Fucking hilarious. So they're gonna try to do a scary movie?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Have you seen it yet? We were supposed to talk about it. I saw it.

You don't sound too happy about that. I'm not gonna lie.

SPEAKER_11

I'm not gonna say, I'm first of all. You happy they back?

SPEAKER_09

Yes!

SPEAKER_11

I think that every black actor who didn't get a job in the last five years had a job with this movie. Mm-hmm. Because he brought back a lot of a lot of people who wasn't working. Yeah. You know, and um don't get me wrong, man. Don't I don't want nobody to take this the wrong way because I love this woman. I just hate what she did to my man, Tiana Taylor. You sit her ass down. She was one of the best parts of the movie. Well, I understand that.

SPEAKER_14

That scene went a little too long, though. It did. It was kind of funny.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, to be fair though, like, I mean, you've seen the other scream movies that came out. So I mean, like, it makes sense that that shit was as long as it was. That's how every intro for every scream has been since but opening up, yeah.

SPEAKER_11

She opened up like that, dog. Could have got the Tuesday one first. Exactly. You could, I mean, if you're gonna if if you're gonna really like stretch that whole thing out, give me a short nugget, then give me, give me the the the the the intro, then bring honey. Then bring, yeah. You know what I mean? I agree.

SPEAKER_14

You know, because I mean like she dragged that all the way out. When I first walked in the theater, I thought I walked to a fucking commercial, I was like, Tiana Taylor. And I went back, I was like, am I narrated? Oh shit, okay.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like, come on. But I I I get it, I get it. It's it's it's her time to shine right now. You know what I mean? But it's it's it's a little bit too much. Besides, I don't like what you did to my man Chomp it. So that's it. You know, I I I'm just starting to like Rihanna again, so you know, it's it's it's it's too much. Too much. It's too much.

SPEAKER_14

You know, I I don't like what Rihanna diss my boy Rocky, though.

SPEAKER_02

What'd she do? She she literally just grabbed the magazine saying I fucked that nigga.

SPEAKER_14

He got bodied by a singing nigga.

SPEAKER_14

Nah, we gotta show him that song after this.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_11

I think I heard it. I think I heard like a little snippet of it.

SPEAKER_14

He's like, damn, your baby moms ain't even post a single. Where's she at?

SPEAKER_02

See, I don't like how Drake has just started to come back in every conversation. Just like how everything just loots back to Kanye. Like, that's where we at right now. Kanye. That's where it's starting to get to.

SPEAKER_14

Iceman season. What you mean?

SPEAKER_02

Oh, nigga.

SPEAKER_14

Rick Ross pushed back, Rick Ross pushed back his album. It was supposed to come out this Friday. But he was like, oh shit, Drake about to be number one for a fourth week in a row. I gotta push this bitch to next month.

SPEAKER_02

To be fair, Rick Ross ain't really have a choice. I'm trying to like when Rick Ross got like when Drake was sitting there getting this, he tried to jump in. I'm like, yo, nobody's listening to you.

SPEAKER_14

Like, I was like, babe, they should have stood on the other side and come and eat right now.

SPEAKER_11

Yo, man, the hottest thing Rick Ross had come out in the last decade was damn Wing Stop Wings. Yeah, that was it. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_02

He's dropping an album next month.

SPEAKER_11

Set in Stone. Who gonna who's gonna buy it?

SPEAKER_14

That's a hard ask. He got a song with TI that just came out. Okay.

SPEAKER_11

Guess where I might listen to it at? In the truck. No, Spotify. Oh shit. With commercials. With commercials.

SPEAKER_02

I will tell you the album cover looks kind of bad.

SPEAKER_14

The album cover, they confirmed it's AI. Wait, wait, what? Yeah, people were looking, it was like brother.

SPEAKER_02

No, like AI, like he's selling it as an AI cover, or like AI as in like that's really not real at all.

SPEAKER_14

Like the cover was made with AI. Well, everything's done with AI now.

SPEAKER_02

But is he gonna sell it like that? Is what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_14

I mean, if this is what he's going with, then yes. Set in stone.

SPEAKER_11

That's bad, bro. What do you think he thanos? He thinks he thanos now.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_11

He got the infinity stones, man. He got the infinity stones. He's gonna snap his finger and destroy rap.

SPEAKER_02

Can you imagine what it's called?

SPEAKER_11

What is it called? It's set in stone. Set in stone.

unknown

Okay. What?

SPEAKER_11

I don't know, man. I mean, the only thing set in stone is the commandments.

SPEAKER_08

It's not clocking to you.

SPEAKER_11

No, it's not. It's not clocking. It's not. It's really not. It's not. It's it's it's not. I'm I'm I I don't I don't know, man. I he's another fraud, man. You know what I'm saying? So I can't, you know, I can't get with him because he he's a fraud.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. They was coming at him, I think, last week because he was always coming at people for driving for a flying commercial, and uh he was in commercial.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, Conn me. He said the jet was getting Wi Fi installed, so he couldn't get on. I swear I I saw the response because I'm like, bro, how you getting out of this one? He was like, ah, he said my jet's getting that Starlink. Y'all know what Starlink is. That's that global uh internet um ain't that a software update. It's a software updates. It's the satellites Elon got in the in the in the in the sky for signals. Now, now we loop in the back. My boy Drake did say, if I'm lying, I'm flying economy. Nobody knew what he was saying until Ross came up. Yo, don't get me started, man. It's Iceman season, though.

SPEAKER_11

Oh man. I gotta admit, I didn't listen to the album, so I mean, you know, I your son ain't played an album.

SPEAKER_14

He played me the album.

SPEAKER_11

Played it for him because he I don't mess with Drake like that.

SPEAKER_14

He got some bangers.

SPEAKER_02

My job.

SPEAKER_14

That boy was rapping.

SPEAKER_02

My job on this podcast is to play Drake, even when I don't want to play Drake. I'm still on the fact that we spend an hour and 20 on Drake.

SPEAKER_14

You was contributing to most of it. It's my job, nigga. Nigga loves their job. That's all I know.

SPEAKER_11

Let me ask a question. What was the what was the the meaning or what was the reason or what was the the logic of dropping three?

SPEAKER_14

To get out of his contract. Apparently, he had like a three more albums on that big deal. With who? Universal. Universal. Okay.

SPEAKER_02

Who also signed Kendrick?

SPEAKER_14

So that's why he was suing because he's like, y'all, y'all spiting this dude against me to devalue myself while I'm trying to get out this contract.

SPEAKER_11

Well, isn't Drake like like the king of of um internet releases? Doesn't he like release like three singles a week or some shit like that?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, we were having that conversation last part because we were saying that he's probably not gonna drop any physicals at all, even though his fans are gonna want the physicals, and his catalog is at a point where it's worth you going out and put out physical copies or something.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. Okay, but what I'm saying is, but the what the point I'm I'm I'm trying to get at is this. If if he only had to get out his contract with three albums, why didn't he just put every physical that he dropped on an album and give it to him?

SPEAKER_14

Because the labels go like, nah, you did that already. There were so many loopholes apparently. Like he kept trying to get out of it with other releases, and they're like, nah, that's a clab album, that don't count. Or if you for an album to count has to be a duration of at least like 60 minutes or something. So if you put an album out that's 35 minutes, they're like, nah, that don't count. That's an EP.

SPEAKER_02

No, no, then that rule change though, because everybody's been dropping 30-minute projects.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, I don't know how it fluctuates, but it might change with people's deals. Like if you sign to a 60-minute duration of an album, then you have to shit.

SPEAKER_02

It might have actually changed to either 40 or 45. Now that I'm thinking about it, like all season was 45 minutes, I think.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

GNX was somewhere around like 40, 47-ish, something like that.

SPEAKER_14

But they had distribution deals, right?

SPEAKER_11

I don't know how that fully works. Okay, so now I gotta ask this question. Because like, okay, Tech 9 back in the day. Tech 9 was like he finally did uh a a label deal. Yeah, you know what I mean? Right, he's always been independent. Yeah, he always did his own shit. And he did independent he did a label deal. And they asked him why. He was like, I'm actually doing a label a favor, and they just gonna do all my advertisement. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. So why the hell did Drake do a label deal? Especially for three albums.

SPEAKER_14

He was hot. So the thing is the label deal that they signed him, Michael Jackson had one of the biggest uh recoup deals ever. I think it was like 300 million at the time. They gave Drake 400 million, and they I think it was supposed to be like six to eight albums, five, three to five tours, whatever, you know, just certain quotas like okay, you gotta reach this. But the label expected it to go this is like a 10-year duration at least, five to ten years. He started just shooting out albums every year, doing another tour right after. So they're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, buddy, buddy, whoa, this you're supposed to work on this as fast.

SPEAKER_02

He's supposed to be waiting like at least two to three years.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Just for them to recoup and even bring you back out there.

SPEAKER_14

He was bringing them back every six months. Yo, here's another album, here's another album, here's another album.

SPEAKER_11

So basically, he just wanted to take the money around. Mm-hmm. And he didn't want to do no work.

SPEAKER_14

Well, he did the I'll give it to him. He did the work. Because you know, a lot of a lot of artists are like, they got me in this deal.

SPEAKER_02

That's kind of the thing, though. Like, he did the work, but you could tell, like, once, like, I understand, like, once Certified Lover Boy came out, he was trying to like. I think at that point, he started showing how much he was trying to get out of the deal.

SPEAKER_14

Let me let me ask you this. If you take a test and you got a C, or you didn't give a fuck about the class, you're gonna just walk away, right? Like, I passed.

SPEAKER_11

Is that C gonna determine whether or not I pass a failure class? Yeah. Well, did I pass with the C? Yeah. Then I'm out. I wouldn't care. I wouldn't care. I mean, look, look, and I gotta say this because you know, you talking to a man that graduated 498 out of a class of 500 in high school. Oh, yeah. Nice. You see what I'm saying? So Yeah, I was on that bottom half too. I ain't gonna lie. Look, special ed students graduated higher than me. You know what I mean? If I graduated with a 7 70.0 GPA, damn it, then that's what it is. I 70s passing. You know, as long as I pass, that means I did what I was supposed to do, I'm out.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, you sound just like me for real. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_02

Black people.

SPEAKER_11

Yo, I mean, look, we ain't gotta put no more, no less than what we have to do. Just get we get it done and go.

SPEAKER_14

I used to hate the motherfuckers like, nah, I need an A plus. Do you? Do you need you need that? Like, that's your bread and butter.

SPEAKER_11

Is that A plus gonna make you more money than me if we are on the same job at the same time?

SPEAKER_14

No, sir. Then guess what? So that's why they complain about Drake's decline in music, because they're like, all right, bro, we know you're giving us the bubblegum, but you're giving us hubba. Like, you know, like before it would be like you get a little spear mint, a little orbit. Now it's like, oh, bro, this is hubba bubba bubblegum.

SPEAKER_11

Like, well, basically, we talk about Drake, so it was all the same bubblegum, period.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, but it was like juicy fruit bubblegum, you feel if you want to call it juicy fruit bubble.

SPEAKER_11

Basically, it was you know, it wasn't even, it was uh what's that zig zigzag bubblegum? You know, Drake, Drake, his his style of music hasn't changed since he came out. You know what I mean? That's why he gets, you know, he can go to every Puerto Rican Day parade in the summer in the home. You know, as a matter of fact, we just learned there's a Puerto Rican Day parade tomorrow. I bet you I'm gonna be there.

SPEAKER_14

Hey, I'm I'm gonna be there. Literally, I'm going there tomorrow.

SPEAKER_11

Shit. I'm like, damn, a Puerto Rican Day parade already. School ain't even out yet. They starting early. Starting early. Man, watch next week's gonna be Dominican Day Parade. Watch.

SPEAKER_02

Do y'all see the whole promotion for Scary Movie? Was y'all fucking with it?

SPEAKER_14

Oh, like how they was using a scream for Michael posters and stuff like that.

SPEAKER_02

No, I'm talking about how they sat there in the middle of Times Square and hotboxed it.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, the hotbox. That shit was hard. That shit, I feel like that was for the Gen Z and Millennials. Like, that shit was hard.

SPEAKER_02

I'm not gonna lie. Like, I like the movie. I feel as though that like out of I feel like it comes after Scary Movie 1.

SPEAKER_14

Two at least.

SPEAKER_02

I feel like Nah, two is the best.

SPEAKER_14

Two is the best. Oh, oh, I see what you're saying. I see what you're saying.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, like I think Scary Movie 2 is the best.

SPEAKER_14

It's better than 3, 4, and 5.

SPEAKER_02

I kind of have a hard time trying to place it between like 3 and 4.

SPEAKER_14

I like three, but I don't know if it's because I was just a kid.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know. I gotta rewatch it, to be honest with you. But I feel like their whole marketing strategy this time around was just like chef's kiss, bro. Yeah, they didn't. There was no reason that they went as crazy as they did for the promotion.

SPEAKER_14

Now they did, now they did fuck up because those popcorn, um, those popcorn buckets should have been real.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, fucked them for that. I'm not gonna lie to you.

SPEAKER_14

Me and my man's went to the theater just we was like, yo, where's the skin we no bong? No what's up?

SPEAKER_02

They denounced it. They denounced it like I want to say a week before the movie came out. Like a week before the movie came out, it was like, sorry guys, we was just joking around, there's no bongs, but we got an old school cell phone that says what's up on it.

SPEAKER_14

And that was a lie too.

SPEAKER_02

What? Well, you saw it? I mean, I didn't see anything when I went.

SPEAKER_11

Hell no. I didn't see anything when I went, so I think Sean Ways is getting too old. Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_02

He's not Sean or Marlon, because I feel like Marlon is the one that.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I mean? Sean is like, he should like he should just stay with the business of it. You know what I mean? Because he's it's like the preacher scene was and That was too long, too. It was funny as hell. You know what I mean? But it it's it's I think that should have been delivered by somebody different.

SPEAKER_02

There were certain things I did have a problem with, like, not necessarily a problem, but it was just the fact that you could tell these niggas again, oh, like even Marlin trying to do the smoky love, I was just like, yo, I I hear it, I hear it. Like it's starting to kill you a little bit to get do it.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, he he he can only hit that like three times in a movie.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, yeah. And you could tell this was like they had to do another take, and he's like, ah shit. Uh y'all let me do it again.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, like he had to come back the next day and do it. We're gonna do this take the next day. Because, like, right now, nah, dog, you can't get it. You can't get it. You know, get three good wheels a day, and that's it. Either that or pre-record them like a week before. Yeah. And use them as necessary. Fresh in the morning, two after a cup of joe. Exactly. Exactly. You know, he he you know, it just I think in this movie he should have had prodigies taken over.

SPEAKER_02

Well, I mean, his kids was in it, right? Most of their kids were in it, actually.

SPEAKER_11

Well, I don't know whose kids are who's with the Wayne's family. Because they all look the same, right? I thought our family looked alike, but goddamn, that whole family was alike.

SPEAKER_14

Genetics strong as hell in that family. Yo, this it's like third generation Wayne. Yo.

SPEAKER_11

So, you know, I think that if he would have had, I think this at all honestly, I think this whole movie should have been the prodigy for the next generation.

SPEAKER_02

I feel like they was trying to do that. Like, I feel like there were certain jokes that they said, like even that super longated end that they had, because at a certain point I was like, oh, y'all niggas need to wrap this up.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, you're talking about when the when the ghost face for real?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I was just like, yo, y'all gotta wrap this up, bro.

SPEAKER_14

Like it was really 2000s.

SPEAKER_02

It is, but like at the same time, it was just like, yo, movie's over. Like, just kill off Shaq if he gotta kill off Shaq.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, like that's like you know what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_14

Now, check this out. I feel like I feel like they would have a good plot if the kids come back to kill them in the next one.

SPEAKER_02

I will say though, I didn't give a fuck about Shaq being in it, but I like that they put Anthony Anderson. He was able to make light of that.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, that was.

SPEAKER_02

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Oh yeah. Sent that bitch to voice with him.

SPEAKER_02

Kevin Hart would even do a soul train too if you asked him. Soul playing too, my bad.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, because I think he's he's he's he's getting a little bit too big for himself right now. Because I and all honesty, that roast was garbage.

SPEAKER_14

I didn't finish it. I saw my pops. We were laughing and joking, but some of it was eh.

SPEAKER_02

Bro, once Lizzo came out, I was done.

SPEAKER_14

That was done.

SPEAKER_11

That was tough. Yeah, that was I mean. I think that I think that I don't know who did the writing for that, but I think they did the writing to the part where it was going to the left. Yeah. You know what I mean? And it was like we really can't like you know, we feel uncomfortable going there, you know what I mean? So we just we just gonna keep on picking on old girl's husband killing herself. Yeah, that was crazy. You know what I mean? And it was like, man, my man killed himself like how many years ago though? Yeah, you know what I mean? And that's the only thing y'all come up with. You know what I mean? Yeah. Where when Kevin hosted the Tom Brady roast, that roast was just like, okay, well, it's a bunch of white people talking about a white guy. Yeah. You know what I mean? Now you got a whole bunch of white people talking about a black guy, and they like, I don't think I want to go that way. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_14

You know, I didn't like there was enough black comedians on there either. You could have replaced Shane Gills with somebody that's not racist, at least. I don't know. Yeah. Well, he does funny racism though.

SPEAKER_02

I mean not Tony. Oh.

SPEAKER_11

I want to know why in the the realm of black comedians, none of them stepped up to roast him. I don't know. Because that's like, I mean, he got roasted by a bunch of white people.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, and I think that's where it kind of gives the ick. Exactly.

SPEAKER_02

I do want to shout out Chelsea Hamlet.

SPEAKER_14

Tiffany Haddish. Oh, yeah, Chelsea Handler was flyer.

SPEAKER_02

Not only that, but like she seemed like the only one that even respected Kevin that whole time, to be honest.

SPEAKER_11

Well, Chelsea Hamlet, she's got a black heart.

SPEAKER_14

I knew it. I was like, yo, I didn't want to say, I'm like, yo, I feel like Chelsea could definitely come to the cookout. I'll give it real quick.

SPEAKER_11

She got black heart. She got black heart. I mean, you know, well, you know, because she got a lot of black up in her. So, you know, she she got the black heart, you know what I mean? A little bit seasoning, you know. Yeah, yeah. I mean, you know, she well, she saw a lot of good nut, but it wasn't Tom Brady's.

SPEAKER_08

Probably 50 cents, but uh you're not getting it, it's not clocking to you.

SPEAKER_11

So, you know, she she good. She knows she good. You know, so you know, and and I think he um didn't he have her on that on that other um Netflix joint he did with the with the comedians?

SPEAKER_14

What the um oh, I know what you're talking about. She was on that.

SPEAKER_11

Funny as fuck, I think it was some shit like that.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, she was on that with him also. So, you know, you know, she she she can always keep it funny and not have to toe the line. Or am I wrong? I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I don't don't get me the lion. At this point, I guess I might as well put the disclaimer. Oh, shit, she's from Livingston.

SPEAKER_14

Oh shit. Oh shit. Yeah, that disclaimer. What are you saying, my bad?

SPEAKER_11

That disclaimer that, you know, the views uh expressed by one Donnell Salter Sr. is not the viewers of the culture caucus. Please do not take that into uh effect and account that uh, you know, I don't want to get you guys canceled, you know.

SPEAKER_04

I hectic done.

SPEAKER_02

That's my dad, y'all. I just want y'all to know.

SPEAKER_11

When he starts going off the rails, you know where he gets it from.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, you saw that Kanye's um relicensing the bear?

SPEAKER_14

But what does that mean, though? Like you have no back to the fold.

SPEAKER_02

So if you ask me, when did graduation come out? Because it has to be 2007. That might be it. 20-year graduation.

SPEAKER_14

Oh shit. I mean, that's the only thing I can think of because you go on tour with all three albums? I wouldn't say that, but I will say eat your fucking heart out.

SPEAKER_02

I will say though, that like if he's relicensing the bear and graduation is the only project that he has that's not on vinyl, like he has to be doing something big for graduation.

SPEAKER_14

Graduation's not on vinyl, it's the only one. I'll sell a kidney for ammo for.

SPEAKER_02

Well, I could be wrong. Uh like everything after, like, I don't think Yesus is on vinyl.

SPEAKER_14

No, it's not. Neither Pablo.

SPEAKER_02

I know Jesus is king and all that shit is on there. Pablo should be on vinyl, to be honest.

SPEAKER_11

Okay, so Jay's Jay, Jay is now putting out another album. Right? Okay, Jay's gonna also do another tour. Inevitably. So does that mean that Kanye's gonna be like, well, if Jay can do it, I could do it? I feel like we're getting to that point. But now you have to sit there and you have to ask yourself, because you know, Kanye's been like off the reservation for like the longest. You know what I mean? So the hottest thing that Kanye has done in like the last five, maybe six, seven within now and the last ten years, was Christmas, Christmas concerts. Not Christmas, uh, a religious concerts. Oh, the Christian, the Christian choir. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So that all came from Life of Pablo, too.

SPEAKER_11

Right. So now, if he goes on tour, where's his core audience?

SPEAKER_14

That's a good question. I feel nowadays his core audience is just like on some graduation shit. Like, they just want to hear the slaps from 20 years ago. I I I know a few people went to his concerts now.

SPEAKER_02

And those are the parts that went the craziest, like shit from 808s.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, like they I heard they he not even playing that new shit.

SPEAKER_02

Like, yo, as he fucking shouldn't. This shit is ass.

SPEAKER_14

Exactly.

SPEAKER_02

Bro, like I was yo, like, yo, I don't I don't know what everybody hears in it. Because I heard everybody say, like, oh, like, it's not that bad. Well, both it's not, yeah, like it's not that bad, it's not mid, it's a it's all just that yo, what is on there, bro? Uh there's only one song throughout the entire thing that I'm like, I fuck with that.

SPEAKER_14

Well, or love, of course. That's it. That Don Talver song is hard too, but I think he took the Don Talver vocal.

SPEAKER_02

That's biased.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, you mad bias. Mad bias.

SPEAKER_11

I bet you right now, Kanye's saying, damn, I should have just let Big Sean come out with his shit.

SPEAKER_14

I used to love Big Sean. Yo, I'm like, damn, you stifing my man.

SPEAKER_02

Bro, it's not even Big Sean's fault, bro. It's Kendrick's.

SPEAKER_14

No, because we should have let that be for Kendrick ride out.

SPEAKER_02

What was he gonna do?

SPEAKER_14

Something.

SPEAKER_02

You let the nigga dish you on his on your own song.

SPEAKER_11

But that's been done before, too, though.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, but not how Kendrick.

SPEAKER_14

That's just that's just an old posse cut. Like, I pretty much.

SPEAKER_02

Pretty much, it's like not how Kenzie did. Not not how Kenny does.

SPEAKER_11

Not in that totality, but I mean, you had rap is coming up spitting better bars than my man, and yo, this is his album. You know what I mean? Yeah, I mean, axe bust the rhymes. He he he said, like, yo, I'm not putting Eminem spitting this shit on my album because he's sitting better than mine.

SPEAKER_14

He's like, I'm not gonna do it. And I do respect that line, bro. Because if I would have heard control, yo, delete that verse. Yeah, yeah. He's like, yo, we're not using that. No, no, we're not doing that. That's why he didn't put it on that album. He said, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I'm saying? And then years later, he can come back and he can say it. You know what I'm saying? But nah, I no, no. Big Sean should have just like not been messing with Kanye, and he probably could have got about a good four or five albums out.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah. You know what I mean? Easily. Because he wasn't even working with Kanye, he wasn't even producing albums at certain points for him. Yeah. He was just getting.

SPEAKER_11

It's not good enough. It's not good. How many times did Big Sean's album get pushed back? Of course it's cognitive.

SPEAKER_02

What the fuck was that good music era now that I think about it?

SPEAKER_14

Some of the greatest music we got collaboratively. Yeah. For our time, at least. For our time.

SPEAKER_02

It was one of the greatest music that we got, but nothing came out of that, bro.

SPEAKER_14

Wait, are you talking about the cruel summer era? Or are you talking about the album where he did like five albums?

SPEAKER_02

I would say after cruel summer, because cruel summer, like, that was ironically, that was a great summer for him.

SPEAKER_14

That was a good high. That was a great summer for me, too. Yo, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

But like nothing, because didn't good music close down? Like, didn't the label close down?

SPEAKER_14

They just all dispersed, like John Legend left, Common left.

SPEAKER_02

Wait, John Legend was on good music?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah. Yeah. He was one of the first people on good music. That was the RB shot. Yeah. It was like Kanye, John Legend, and Common.

SPEAKER_11

That was the fucking Kanye, man. That was supposed to be the like the all Chicago thing right there. You know what I mean? All the artists from Chicago were supposed to come together and like, you know, they're supposed to be like the South of Chicago. You know what I mean? Because like all the southern rappers got together and they was like, okay, we're gonna put this all up. Boom. Then they came out with their shit. You know what I mean? Then like Chicago was like, yo, we got good music in Chicago. We're gonna get all together. But the problem is you had Kanye who wanted to be the perfectionist. You know what I mean? He wanted to perfect everything. You can't perfect everything, you just gotta make it good.

SPEAKER_14

And that was a downfall. That was the downfall in 2018 when he produced five albums in five weeks. Yeah. And the only one that sounded good was the Pusha T album that he was prepping for.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, but let's be honest. When is Pusha T ever gonna put out fucking garbage?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, no, that's what I'm saying. That wasn't Kanye's doing it.

SPEAKER_02

I don't think I ever heard like a bad album from Push.

SPEAKER_14

Nah. Even the album after And that's rare.

SPEAKER_11

But there's more people on the label. Yeah. You know what I mean? Even though you're gonna let Pusha T do whatever he wants to do because he don't put out nothing bad. You got the other jokers that is not, they're not putting out garbage, they putting out substantial good shit, but you ain't allowing it to go. Yeah. You in the cold ever, bro? Oh, damn. On this platform?

SPEAKER_14

You know what I'm saying? OG popping. That's all you telling me.

SPEAKER_11

Phone's still jumping, that's all. I was like, damn, was the battery running low or something? I didn't know what the ball.

SPEAKER_14

Any other topics you want to get to?

SPEAKER_02

Why did you put American Music Awards?

SPEAKER_14

Uh, cuz um I thought it was gonna be substantial and I thought somebody won something. I just saw Cardi B won something, and I was like, are we gonna go through the nominations?

SPEAKER_02

Music awards, nigga. The fuck?

SPEAKER_14

My bad, bro. I think I wanted to bring in the fact that every other musical, every other award thing is debunked unless it's not the Grammys or the Emmys or the uh what's the other one?

SPEAKER_02

Award shows are dud, bro. I'm not gonna like I wish like even MTV music awards are dud, bro. And that used to be like hot shit.

SPEAKER_14

That shit was hot until Molly started shaking no ass on Robin thick. I feel like that was the demise or anything right there. Robin lost his wife. Man, leave Miley alone, man. Molly was wildin' when she first left Disney, yo.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, you see the shit that he defends, bro.

SPEAKER_11

Come on, yo. That's that's that's Hannah Montana, man. Leave Hannah Montana alone, man.

SPEAKER_02

I tried to tell you, nigga. Hannah Montana did something different for everybody, bro.

SPEAKER_11

Hannah Montana, man.

SPEAKER_02

You know what I'm saying? Rich can't believe you and shambles, nigga.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I'm saying? She pulled up to the club at LAX. You know what I'm saying? Kind of Montana, man.

SPEAKER_14

You saw the 20th anniversary?

SPEAKER_02

A Jay-Z song was on, bro.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, Jay-Z song was on. Oh my god, yo. Why you bringing that shit out?

SPEAKER_07

Come on, man.

SPEAKER_02

That's it. Don't do that.

SPEAKER_11

But I'm saying, yo, but nah, you know what? You know what I wanted to talk about? I don't know if y'all saw it though. Because I just saw it like the other day because I ain't had nothing to watch. Y'all seen the swimsuit, the sports illustrated swimsuit shit? No, no, no. So is Angel Reese on there now? Nah. See, this is what happened. They had a sports illustrated swimsuit runway.

SPEAKER_14

Okay.

SPEAKER_11

Right? And they had all the women, like, you know, like that bodybuilder chick in bathing suits walking runway.

SPEAKER_14

Okay.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I'm saying? So they had some models and they had some superstars and they had like a performer. I'm not gonna say who the performer was, but the performer was also up there in a bathing suit. But the thing that bugged me out was Tiffany Haddish was in there. Why the hell did they have Tiffany Haddish walking the runway in a goddamn bathing suit?

SPEAKER_14

You know what he asked for that?

SPEAKER_11

You know what I mean? Kevin Hart ain't even asked for that shit. You know what I'm saying? But you know who the performer was. Was it Beg? You know, no, you know who the performer was. Who? If I tell you, you're gonna be mad as hell.

SPEAKER_14

Who was it? Well, have you looked this shit up? Lizzo. Oh. Oh, all right, I'm gonna put my phone back down. That's your ass, though. Lizzo make good pop music. You fuck with Lizzo. Lizzo make good pop music. That's all. But a goddamn bathing suit. I ain't asked for all that though.

SPEAKER_11

See, you got but it doesn't matter because you gotta remember Big Lizzo already had an ass out at the at the at the uh at the lake is at the lake is.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, yeah, that was nasty work. Yeah, it's kids in this, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Now Middle Lizzo was was really nastier work. Is it that or ice spice going out at a SpongeBob premiere looking like the what's really worse? That might be equivalent.

SPEAKER_14

Because Ice Spice looked at that shit in the closet, saw she was gonna Spongebob premiere, said, Damn, when we go put on, yeah, this should this should get him.

SPEAKER_02

Like, come here, square pants.

SPEAKER_14

I gotta ask you now that Lizzo, now that Lizzo skimmed down a little. No, not I think. No, no, no. Can I crack?

SPEAKER_11

There's there's some things that like there's some women in the world that need to stay big. You know what I mean? And not I I I don't, you know, because I was always a big dude, so I don't body shame nobody. No body shame no. Yeah, I get it. My thing is if we loved you because you were big, why you get small?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I mean? Because, like, don't get me wrong, Monique was like one of them people that was like, oh, the big girl, the big girl. She had that fat girl movie. I'm appreciated. She had that comedy. Yeah, and all of that shit. But then, like, the industry told you that you gotta get smaller, so that's what you did. So then you went and you got smaller and you was this and you was that, then the Oscars came and you didn't win it, and now you was mad.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I mean? Come on. Really? It's like that. You know, that's like Eddie Murphy getting mad when he ain't winning shit. But we don't worry about it, man. The brothers love you. The brothers love you, man. Like it's cool. The brothers know you did your shit in the movie.

SPEAKER_12

I don't think you should be doing it as a grown-ass man. Let's get right into it.

SPEAKER_02

Y'all love them videos, right?

SPEAKER_11

You know, so you know, you know, this years ago, years, years, years ago, when Denzel got passed over for an Oscar. I'm not sure which one it is, because it was like so many of them that he should have won. But he was on the show and he's like, he said, you know, an Oscar's an Oscar. You know what I mean? And people that sit there and take pride and credit in saying this actor is phenomenal because he won an Oscar, are those people and they're gonna stay those people.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

But if I don't win a Pookie award, then what good am I? You know what I mean? I'd rather win a Pookie than win an Oscar. You know what I'm saying? But unfortunately, black people don't have Oscars. You know what I mean? They don't have awards for, you know, we got the NAACP awards, which you know, exactly. But I mean, as long as you do your shit and your relative fan base rides with you, fucking Oscar. Yeah. Public enemy, right?

SPEAKER_02

So now what happens when you try to change up your style and now your fan base isn't fucking with you?

SPEAKER_11

That's a problem. Yeah. That's a problem. You gotta accommodate to them. You know? P.E. said who gives a fuck about a goddamn Grammy. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. But won't for black people give a fuck about a goddamn Oscar.

SPEAKER_02

See, that's where fan bases are fickle at because it's like, yes, there's some points where someone will try to change their style and now you don't fuck with them, but then there's other points where you do the same shit. But they're tired of you.

SPEAKER_11

It's it's gotta be a reason why you changed your style. You know what I mean? If you changed your style, if you changed your style from rap to RB, you see what I'm saying? And you are putting out just about equivalent quality to your rap and your RB, then we we still fucking with you.

SPEAKER_14

That's Kanye. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_11

But when you switch your whole entire style up just to appease the ops, we can't fucking with you like that.

SPEAKER_14

See? And that's why, and that's why Jack Harlow's album ain't sell, bruh.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, leave Jack Harlow and his hat alone, bruh. He's still walking around with that big ass hat.

SPEAKER_14

Like, I like it. You done stuck to it. You gotta keep rolling with it now.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, I'm not gonna lie to you, as much as I like I don't care about Jack Harlow at this point.

SPEAKER_14

But I will say that white boy can rap. That's all I'm saying.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, when he tried.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, and he just stopped.

SPEAKER_02

But then he just stopped. The one thing I will say about him is that he will run with this hat for the end of life, bro.

SPEAKER_11

That's like, that's like uh Hootie. Hootie and the Blowfish. My man Hootie. When he came, when he first came out, the black joker. He does country now. Oh, shabozy? No, not shabozy. That wasn't Shabozy. I can't remember his name. I can't call his name right now. I have no idea what we're talking about. He was in Hootie and the Blowfish.

SPEAKER_14

Hootie and the Blowfish. Let me see.

SPEAKER_02

Please don't tell me that's not a band from like the 80s.

SPEAKER_14

No, it is. It is. Oh my god, hold on, bruh. The black Joker. Yeah. Is it Darius Rucker? That's it. Darius Rucker.

SPEAKER_11

Darius Rucker was Hootie and the Blowfish. Who and he was doing his thing, and Jokers were fucking with him. Then he stopped that shit and went to country. Yeah. You see what I'm saying? Now, most black people's like, even though Hootie wasn't with the with, you know, he wasn't on that upper level of being with the black people, but he was on that level of like, yo, we can fuck with that. Yeah. No. Then he went to country. And them Jokers was like, uh, but now the brothers is like, oh shit, this country shit is better than the Hootie shit. You know what I mean? So, you know, that's the I believe him. You know, you just gotta stay. If you're gonna switch up your shit, switch up your shit in your own realm. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Don't go out right. And that's the whole thing. Just don't cater to that motherfuckers. You know what I'm saying? Don't cater to the masses. Don't be uh a damn uh uh a Nicki Minaj. Don't be a stancey dash. You know what I'm saying? Don't don't do that. You know what I'm saying? Because we got love for you in the black community, and that's all you need. That's it. That's it. He'd be one of more.

SPEAKER_02

We do got one big problem, guys. I'm gonna be honest with y'all. This one's really big, too. So the justice depart the justice department just approved the merger between WB and Paramount.

SPEAKER_14

They still gotta go through uh oh shit. Isn't there one more one more thing they have to go through?

SPEAKER_02

Me personally, I don't really know because like we've never seen a deal on this stature. You know what I mean? So like it's it's one of those things where I'm like don't know who they have to go through, but I know it's about to fuck up the film business bad, especially now that the film business is just now coming back, like we finally have Gen Zers that actually want to go to the movie theater, yeah. So I don't really know what's gonna happen with that one, but well, I'll tell you what.

SPEAKER_11

When it comes down to movies, until they can start putting out something of quality, you know what I'm saying? Movies is dead, dog.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, what's of quality to you though? Because I feel it's like there's there's good movies and music from your era that if you hear what we think is good music in movies, it's not really the same to you.

SPEAKER_14

You must be going towards the original?

SPEAKER_11

No, no, no. I mean there's no more original content out there. Unless you can create an original content, there's no more original content out there. That's why everything that is being done is being done based off of something else. Right. See what I'm saying? So just give me something that's gonna it's gonna tingle my intellect. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_02

The only ones doing that is no one.

SPEAKER_14

A24 is doing it too.

SPEAKER_02

I mean A24 I'm biased about, so I can't, you know what I mean? I love A24, but yeah, I get it.

SPEAKER_14

I'm biased too. What's the just the shit that makes no sense where the ending's like, damn, what the fuck was that? I'm like, y'all took it, y'all made the risk.

SPEAKER_02

But knowing, especially now with the Odyssey coming out next month, which first of all, crazy as fuck for Tom Holland, because this nigga got two movies in the span of two weeks.

SPEAKER_11

Okay, so you got you got okay, you got action, you got adventure, you got drama, you got based odyssey and rom-com, right? So you sit there and you look at it. What original scientific shit you gonna come up with that hasn't already been done? Or the idea or concept hasn't been there already. Right. And now you gotta also look at it though, because you gotta, okay, with movies now, right, you gotta hit every criteria. Okay, so you need a black guy, I'm not gonna say guy, because you know I don't wanna be biased. You need somebody black, you need somebody white, you need somebody Asian, you need somebody gay, you need somebody bi, you need somebody trans. You gotta put all of this in a movie. You see what I'm saying? And if you don't put it in the movie, you end up on Netflix. You see what I'm saying? Because, think about it. When Eddie Murphy did Coming to America 2, right? The reason it didn't go to the theater is because he didn't have all of that in it. Yeah. And he said, I'm not changing it.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I mean? Why am I gonna put more white people in the movie just because I'm coming back to America? You know what I mean? So that's the thing.

SPEAKER_09

If you don't meet that, yes, yes, fuck you told.

SPEAKER_11

That's exactly what he told him. That's why that shit went to goddamn Amazon.

SPEAKER_09

You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_11

That's why that shit went to Amazon. Because he was like, no, motherfucker, we're not doing that. Yeah, you see? So that's that's the thing, man. You got to, and this is where like, you know, y'all Gen Z is and shit fucked up every goddamn thing. That's it. Y'all got y'all got too much compassion and loving and caring for the next man. You know what I mean? And and that's the shit.

SPEAKER_02

Sometimes I will say, that's why they were saying, even when Scary Movie came out, there was people that walked out of the theater because they were actually offended by what they were seeing.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, and I'm like, what are you getting offended for? That's why I always say comedy. Why are you getting offended?

SPEAKER_02

That's why I always say, like, I say it's rich all the time. Like, because me and him was born in '97, it's kind of that weird thing where it's like shit that people from 2000 and up would get offended by, we just do not give a fuck about because it's like that's that's what we grew up on. We grew up in the 1980s.

SPEAKER_11

2000s is our version of the 80s. Yeah. Right. And then you know, you got you got the old fuckers like me that was born in 68. That's just like, motherfucker, that ain't shit. You know? I mean, I mean, I still call motherfuckers retarded.

SPEAKER_02

Clip that too a week.

SPEAKER_11

You know, I mean, you know, you my son, you hear me talk, you know. So, I mean, it's this this is the way it is, man. So when it comes down to the film industry, you know, it's that quality's not gonna be there. You know, because even if you think for one instant that I have something of quality, of standard, of stamina, of the ability to keep your attention, you know, if it doesn't meet the criteria of the industry, you're not gonna do it. Yeah, you know, you gotta hope and pray that maybe you can bring it to a a Tyler Perry or a 50 Cent. I mean, I best bet bring the 50 Cent because he don't give a fuck about shit. You know what I mean? Like den of thieves, that shit actually might sell. Yeah, exactly. So, you know, bring it to him, let him do his thing with it, you know. And right now, you know, that's exactly what it is. If if it's not a if it's not a Tyler Perry production or it's not a 50 Cent production, it ain't worth watching, period.

SPEAKER_14

It's going straight to Tubi. Pretty much.

SPEAKER_02

Uh so Chris Brown decided uh he's gonna drop a deluxe on Father's Day weekend. It's called Brown, the chocolate edition.

SPEAKER_14

I better get a uh Henny and a honey pack remix, nerd. Honey and not a remix. Nasty, nigga. Honey and a honey pack. Honey and a honey pack. Damn. That's what I'm saying. He should be having more kids than you do right now, but that's just me.

SPEAKER_02

I don't look, I'm hyped that he's dropping deluxe, even though a lot of people just don't fuck with this album, which is cool. But I don't think Chris Brown's ever gonna stop with this deluxe shit that he's doing. Don't worry about it, man. All the cool gas love it. Yep. Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

No, for real. All the cool gas love it.

SPEAKER_02

Nigga, I know. Look, every Chris Brown concert that I've been to, and I've been to many. I all the aunties was out there, bro. Aunties, grandmothers, mothers, they come out, they're coming out.

SPEAKER_11

Everybody from 55 and down.

SPEAKER_02

Like they always saying, bro, there's like, oh, I gotta go see that brown man.

SPEAKER_14

I think the deluxe go deliver too. I feel like people are waiting. Like, we're we're used to Chris Brown the deluxe.

SPEAKER_02

Alright, so like unpopular opinion, though. And this is coming from a Chris Brown fan.

SPEAKER_13

Oh shit.

SPEAKER_02

His deluxes aren't that great. Damn. Like he's fine with like the normal album, but there's songs that's like on certain deluxes, like the heartbreak deluxe, I didn't really care for, even though that was like Christmas shit that he dropped theme one.

SPEAKER_11

Does that really like hurt you as a Chris Brown fan? Does that hurt you?

SPEAKER_14

That hurt me hearing that shit.

SPEAKER_02

It don't hurt me because this nigga has like 50,000 songs. Oh yeah, we know that.

SPEAKER_13

Average fan knows that shit.

SPEAKER_11

You know, but for you, but for you being, you know, the Chris Brown fan that you are, and you know, you like I like okay, you got 50,000, but the the the the 10,000 that you use on your deluxe is I don't like. You know what I mean? So, you know. There's a ratio. Okay. All right, I just you know, I just want to make sure I don't want you jumping over the building with shit.

SPEAKER_14

You know if the chocolate edition don't got that five deluxe, he said, you know what this is over. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_11

I want a honey honey back too. Just think about it, man. You know could do it. I I could do it. I was there for you when when you had to like, you know, give up Eminem for MGK. Oh boy. You know what I'm saying? Nobody even gave up Eminem. You know, but you put them that you put them on a back burner, though.

SPEAKER_09

Put M on the back burner for MG.

SPEAKER_11

Yes. Yes.

SPEAKER_02

Hear me out, my nigga, right? Hear me out. Why you snitching, nigga? Damn. Here's the thing, right? M was on drugs. You didn't drop shit for a while. You know what I mean? It just was a weird time period, you know?

SPEAKER_14

So when they started beefing, I know that probably tore your world apart.

SPEAKER_02

I thought it was funny.

SPEAKER_14

It was funny. I thought it was funny. The weird beard shit was fire.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, you should have seen me because I watched it first. And then I was like, huh. He really came at M and I was like, yo, Pop, I need you to see this shit.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, that was it. That was a trying time for you there, son. I'm glad I was there for you. You know what I mean? I mean, Rich, you just gotta, you just gotta picture like, you know, when he was like getting up there into the music world and everything like that, me and him are on a truck, and like, this joke is hard on Eminem, boy. I mean, he's hard on Eminem. I was like, damn, he was like, yo, this is the best rapper. I'm like, damn, it's like that, dog. Like, it's really it's like that, you know what I'm saying? And then you know when and then and then 50 came out. I'm like, I was like, yo, I think 50 will give M a run for his money. Nah, you don't know what you're talking about. This is M. This is you know what I mean? So I was like, all right, son, okay, no problem, no problem. And then like the MGK started coming in there, and I was like, did he just say what I think he said about him? And I'm like, you gonna sit there, you gonna stand for that?

SPEAKER_14

Let me train the sides, you know.

SPEAKER_11

The next thing you know, I see the joke, I'm like, yo, where you at? Oh, I went to Ohio to check out MGK. I was like, dang, but now I went for the coffee house that they had. Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_02

To be fair, I'll go for the coffee house. I'm not going for mom spaghetti.

SPEAKER_14

Bruh, come on, man. That's crazy, yo. That's crazy. I almost went for mom spaghetti. I'm like, damn, well, this shit gotta be nigga.

SPEAKER_02

You gonna go all the way to Detroit for spaghetti? I'll go for coffee. Fuck with M.

SPEAKER_11

I wasn't saying he was the best, but that's M couldn't do no wrong on that truck, man. You sound traumatized. You're right, though. You made it through, man. You made it through that 115 miles per hour downhill.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, don't even get me started on that, bro.

SPEAKER_11

Okay, that's a story for the audience. So we're so we uh um I'm driving for this company that I won't mention because you know, but I'm driving and I'm picking up uh paper, paper products. You know what I'm saying? So we got a thing that we can't have no more than 40,000 pounds of product in the trailer. Right. So we are now leaving Kentucky. We were in Kentucky, we had to go down to Pennsylvania, and Kentucky is mainly hilly. It's it's just hilly up and down, up and down. You can go up the hill like no more than like 30 miles per hour because it's so heavy, you know what I'm saying? But once you get to the top of that hill, oh, we going down. We going down. Now I'm driving a stick shift at the time, and if I leave it in tenth gear, it's still gonna ride. You know what I mean? But I'm like, fuck that. So I think it was closer. That was the song.

SPEAKER_14

That meal had to sound like the matrix, yo.

SPEAKER_02

I ain't gonna lie, bro. Even that night, like I think I forgot where we went, but I was just like, you know what? I'm going to Walmart, bro. I'm leaving you here. Like, he parked the truck. I got out of the truck and I went inside Walmart in the middle of the night. So so we gotta tell a Walmart story now?

Then one night, after the summer's over, he's back home and everything like that. I go inside the Walmart and shit. Three o'clock in the morning, because now I gotta do some shopping. Yeah. So the lady was like, Do you drive that truck that's out there? I was like, Yeah. She was like, Is that your son that comes in here? I'm like, Yeah, well, where is he at? We haven't seen him in a while. Oh shit. The Joker back at home in school. She was like, Oh, because he was the nicest kid. He would sit here all night and talk to us and he would play games. And I'm like, huh? Yo, this Joker would stay up with the old ladies while they working, we playing games, watching TV.

SPEAKER_02

So, like, there was a cashier that worked in the front. I had a little crush on it, I ain't gonna lie to you.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, so you just lined up the golden girls.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You gotta line up the golden girls, though. You can't get the actual girl, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_11

I'm like, this joker was up in the Walmart all night long. Mackin this chip. Oh my goddamn.

SPEAKER_02

Why you think I know I'm pretty, bro?

SPEAKER_09

Like, that's why I know I'm pretty.

SPEAKER_02

Oh shit. What else we got, man?

SPEAKER_14

That's really it, honestly. That's really it.

SPEAKER_02

I mean Oh, we didn't talk about Lizzo Disson Trump. Well, Trump Emanage.

SPEAKER_14

I mean, it didn't it didn't do what it was supposed to do.

SPEAKER_02

Uh why would it?

SPEAKER_14

I thought it was. I ain't gonna lie to you. I thought Ether was about to get set off. I'm like, oh shit, let's go.

SPEAKER_02

Bro, I don't even I don't even think Nikki Reddit saw it.

SPEAKER_11

She's hanging fruit. She's low hanging fruit right now, man. Just let her let her just hang herself right now. Yeah, pretty much. Pretty much. She she got played. She got played. Yeah. And she thought that, you know, if she goes out there and tries to say this and try to say that Trump was gonna sit there and do her a solid. But you went to Trump when he already was in.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

If you would have gone to him when he was trying to get the vote, then it would have been better. But he's already in there. You know what I mean? And he can care less whether or not black people like him. You know what I mean? So what difference does it mean? Yeah, now you just ruined your whole career. Right. And you going against his agenda. His agenda is to get y'all out of here. So why would he just because you want to come and gump on the bagwag and keep your brother here? You know what I mean? He don't give a fuck about you or your brother.

SPEAKER_14

Or your father.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_02

Bro, I did see that you put that Spider-Man's about to be the best movie ever.

SPEAKER_14

Or the best. I agree with you.

SPEAKER_02

I agree with you, but I don't know. I'm I'm looking forward to it, but I also heard it's supposed to be what, the longest one?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's why it might be the best. Longer doesn't mean better.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, we're getting a street level depressed Spider-Man, so I mean, that's what we've been wanting.

SPEAKER_14

This is already Spider-Man 2 level quality coming in. That's a high bar. Spider-Man 2 is the greatest uh superhero film ever, but I don't know about that.

SPEAKER_02

So like I I fuck with Spider-Man 2. I feel like it's in top three at least. But then you have shit like Days of Futures Pass. Oh, that's what's high. Exactly. Like it's kind of it's kind of hard for me. Like I love Spider-Man, especially being like I mean, I would just declare myself the biggest Spider-Man fan, but there's there is better superhero movies than that. At the time, though, that kind of capped it off for what a realhero movies without Spider-Man, like the whole Sam Raimi trilogy.

SPEAKER_14

Especially Spider-Man 2. I feel like Spider-Man 2 said it to where it's like, oh, this is a regular dagger dude. He's dealing with problems. You want to save people? And you don't, you're not rent due? Yo. You doing we back at that point now where it's like, yo.

SPEAKER_10

I'll pay you your rent when you fix this damn door.

SPEAKER_14

Iconic. Yup. Shoes iconic.

SPEAKER_02

I swear I say that shit at least three times a day.

SPEAKER_11

So is Spider-Man a superhero or a vigilante?

SPEAKER_02

Superhero.

SPEAKER_11

Both, honestly. So why is he a superhero and Batman's not?

SPEAKER_02

Batman kills. Spider-Man doesn't.

SPEAKER_14

Batman don't kill you. Just whenever he kills somebody. He don't kill you. Who did he kill? He just break your arms and legs and just put you in a wheelchair for the rest of your life. He didn't kill you.

SPEAKER_02

I guess he's more brutal, I guess.

SPEAKER_14

He broke your spirit. He killed your spirit. I'll be pretty hopeless after fighting Batman, but he didn't kill you.

SPEAKER_11

Nah, Batman ain't never killed nobody. I mean, Spider-Man wrapped you up in a web and left you hanging on a building.

SPEAKER_02

At least it was funny about it.

SPEAKER_11

Told you some fucking joke before you fucking hang from a seal. I'm like, no. And on the electric company, Spider-Man didn't do all of that. Not the electric company. You know, in the electric company, he really didn't come to life that much. You know, we just had to read about him in the comic book. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yo, what were you saying about UMG rejecting 65 mil? Oh, uh was it 65 mil or 65 bill?

SPEAKER_14

There was an investor who wanted to own the company for 65 billion dollars, but they just told him no because I'm not exactly sure why. I guess they're finagling and uh messing with the numbers again. It's probably black. No, it's actually uh some white dude red hair.

SPEAKER_11

Then that means he didn't he didn't he didn't um he didn't play the game right. I think so. He didn't he didn't side with the right person.

SPEAKER_14

Cause he was in I think that whole deal was going back and forth for months. But they also no, they also said um G will lose like 54% profit after Drake goes independent.

SPEAKER_02

So y'all keep moving back to Drake?

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, you can't he can't lose money though.

SPEAKER_02

The thing is, like UMG's gonna lose money, sure. I don't think Drake's gonna lose anything.

SPEAKER_14

Oh nah, he got he he's in investors' pockets at this point, so you're not losing. But umg their margins are gonna go down. You still got old Drake catalogs, so they're never gonna fully go down. But new acts, bro, unless somebody in there begging Kendrick to drop an album.

SPEAKER_02

And even then, Kendrick's on his own shit. Like he's on PG Lane now. Like he's he's not at all worried about what the fuck UMG has to do with anything.

SPEAKER_11

I'm still wondering why rappers and music artists that are so big are fucking with labels.

SPEAKER_14

Distribution. You still you don't get no recognition unless you do you gotta have the biggest headlight, you know?

SPEAKER_02

I feel like it's different now because it's like after the SoundCloud era, like after the blog SoundCloud era, they were able to go independent with no problem. Like ever since Chance did what Chance did, everybody was able to go independent with no problem. Now, when it comes to those older acts, like when it comes to Cole, when it comes to Drake, when it comes to Kendrick, like they were already label acts to begin with. So it's kind of it's like if that's the only way that you know, it's kind of hard to get out of that, especially since you have a good relationship with them, i.e. Kendrick.

SPEAKER_14

All three of them, all three of them were the golden children. They were all the perfect example of, oh, we got a talent, he's selling, he's making us money.

SPEAKER_02

Which I've never seen rap like that before, where it was just like that's why they're the big three. Exactly. Like where those three, when they drop, everybody's going to go listen to them. Nobody's gonna be listening to no offense to these other artists, but like little Uzi to Meagles to like just any other artist that's not on the label as of right now, we're not listening to.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

Okay, so now it makes sense while you sit there. Well, now, no, this is this answers your question on what you were saying to me before when we were sitting here listening to Kendrick. People were wondering whether or not he's gonna drop an album. And what did I tell you? He's not. Why? Because he doesn't have to. You see what I'm saying? I wholeheartedly agree. That's the that's the long game that they wanted Drake to play. Yeah. Kendrick is now playing. Kendrick mastered that long game because how long was it before albums?

SPEAKER_14

One album took five years to come back.

SPEAKER_11

See what I'm saying? Hell, Kendrick probably got a 20-year deal with them motherfuckers. He'll drop an album once every five years.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

And keep telling Johnny he's not coming back until five years from now.

SPEAKER_02

You never know.

SPEAKER_11

You never know. Kendrick's playing Kendrick's playing that that that uh bad boy role. Like, you know, the bad boy franchise. You know what I'm saying? We make them we make a movie in 80, we come back with another movie in 2000. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? And it's still hot. Still hot. You know what I mean? Kendrick's gonna look this look, Kendrick's gonna be like in the year 2035 saying, I told you they wasn't like us. You know what I mean? And and and and that's gonna be, and that's gonna be like the name of the album. I told you why they wasn't, I'm I'm gonna tell you why they wasn't like us. You know, so that's that's the thing, man. He's playing the long game. As long as he doesn't have to come out, as long as he can keep you waiting for more, he's gonna keep you waiting.

SPEAKER_14

That's always his best asset. Yep. Because you're like, it's gonna be quality. Yeah, I mean, hell look, Dr. Dre's still coming out with his album.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. Chronic in 2000 was a huge margin. Yeah, and Dr. Dre said he was coming out with another album. And guess what? We still waiting. Oh, Detox?

SPEAKER_02

He's been canceled now.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, he ain't canceled it. He canceled it. He canceled it what in 2015? It's still sitting on the back burner.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, that shit just there. That shit is never. There's a rumor saying when he dies, they go release.

SPEAKER_02

I was about to say, like, that's the only time detox can come out with a lot of papers.

SPEAKER_11

You know what he could do? He could do like the Wu-Tang did. Oh, that secret album, right? Yep, did that secret album and only had one person buy it. He they only did one album, and that one joker bought it for like millions. That dude was scum too. That was that was the pharmaceutical joker. Yeah, uh pharmaceutical joker. Fucking super that joker made like 50 million dollars on penicillin.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, you know what I'm saying? And then bought the Wu-Tang album with it, and then up the price again for the old people. Say, yeah, chicken. Now I got this album, you gotta pay more for that penicillin. I think it was I think it was diabetes medicine.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, yo was fucked up. It was like, yo, people need this shit. You know how many diabetics are on the world. I don't man, I'm yo, this diabetes medicine now is $50 a shot. For real. It went from $50 a shot to $150 a shot overnight. And Joe was like, that's all right, that's okay.

SPEAKER_14

Play that Wu-Tang. Say, go play that unreleased Wu-Tang.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I'm saying? And then he ended up, I think he had to end up giving it up for tax evasion or some shit like that. Yeah. So there you go. So find that, find out where that album at.

SPEAKER_14

And I think he had to sell it back to Wu-Tang or some shit.

SPEAKER_11

That's some Jay-Z Dame Dash shit. Yeah, yeah. Oh, we feel good. We see the countdown is on. The countdown is on. We got an hour and a half.

SPEAKER_02

I know. I know. You think y'all gonna get it tonight? I hope we get it tonight.

SPEAKER_14

Now, I'm gonna ask you because you're OG of the OG is the fans. Do you want them to get in five or do you want them to get in six and bring that bitch?

SPEAKER_11

I want to get it, I want them to get it in five. Just rapidly. I rightly do. Because the heart, this is the hardest game, this is the hardest game to play right now. Cause we're gonna close it out. You know what I'm saying? So we got three more chances? Yeah. Because just yeah, this is the game. You don't even want to push the margin, right? Just I got three games to win one. See what I'm saying? I wanna win that thing right now. I like that. You know what I mean? Just get headed, get it out there because like the last time the Knicks won the championship, I was five years old. They won a 73, I was born at 68. You know what I'm saying? It was rough. I thought we was doing it with Pat there, you know what I'm saying? Oakley be bruising up people. You know, John Starks was out there jump jamming over Jordan, you know what I'm saying? I thought we was gonna do it, but you know, OJ fucked us up. John Starks went 0 for 18 shooting and shit. So, you know, I think I think we can do it, man. I'm I'm hoping we if we don't do it this year, we ain't gonna do it. Yeah, we ain't gonna do it. I believe that too. No, I believe that too.

SPEAKER_02

I like that victory story that y'all got that, you know, Jalen Brunson's dad took him to the finals in '99.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Still lost, bro.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, he still lost. He was he lost that. He lost his big thing. That's a good battery to have on your back. But you know, like they say, Jalen Brunson's a winner. He won in high school, he won in grammar school, high school, college, he's a winner. You know what I mean? So, you know, I'm hoping we're doing it.

SPEAKER_02

I meant to ask you, do they do that all the time? Where like they'll lose by 15 and then creep up?

SPEAKER_11

Yep.

SPEAKER_02

Because they've been doing that all finals.

SPEAKER_11

Yep, they've been doing it all year. So I like they've been doing it all year. As a matter of fact, the Mets did the same shit last year. But the Mets didn't fucking win. You know, but that's yeah, that's that's they they got that they got that comeback thing about them that you can't you can't beat. You know what I mean? So hopefully they can do it. Hopefully they can do it. Yeah, we believe in things. Ladies and gentlemen, we know we do. You know what I'm saying? We don't understand why the Knicks haven't won it so long, but you know, we believe.

SPEAKER_02

The city's gonna fucking riot. And I will be outside.

SPEAKER_11

That's why you better hope it's next and five, because if it's hope it's six, and we gotta come back to the garden. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness.

SPEAKER_14

That's why it be six.

SPEAKER_11

I will get on the path.

SPEAKER_14

Third quarter. I'm out here. I know these boys take this chip home.

SPEAKER_11

I just wish, you know what? I wish I had a job at Madison Square Garden to do the intro. You know what I'm saying? Because I mean, like, I already said it. I was like, we gotta come out the DMX, and we did come out the DMX. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_02

As soon as I heard the bargain, I was like, oh no.

SPEAKER_11

That was the bug. Yo, man. Just imagine we go back to the garden in game six, and this is all you hear.

SPEAKER_14

You know what I mean? After that.

SPEAKER_11
