Starting point is 00:09:09 his little Jay-Z meltdown. Oh, really? Yeah, she was like Instagram storing the whole thing and I'm watching it like, oh, wow, so cool, so cool. And then all of a sudden
Starting point is 00:09:18 she just is recording him doing his, because she's like, yeah, talk that shit, Kanye. Talk that shit, you see. Talk that shit. Shout out to Stephanie. And then all of a sudden she goes, what the fuck?
Starting point is 00:09:30 He starts falling apart. Kanye went cake in the rain, dude. It was actually very funny. As someone who couldn't afford to get tickets at the time. I went to three of the shows. I would have loved to have been one where we had a meltdown. He didn't. We'll get to that.
Starting point is 00:09:41 Yeah, yeah. We'll get to that. To determine the order of the draft, the three of you will be playing a rollicking game of rock, paper, scissors. Okay. You're going to throw on shoot, and here we go. Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Yep. Rock, paper, scissors, shoot. Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
Starting point is 00:09:55 Oh! Damn. I got scissors, bitch. Marcella wins. Shout out to the lesbians. Yeah, wait, wait. No, she doesn't, because you were paper,
Starting point is 00:10:02 you were rock, she was scissors. He was paper. I was paper. Oh, you were both paper? Yeah, they were both paper. Yeah, okay. Okay okay okay okay they're trying to be rappers they got paper they chose paper i just wanted it some aspect of my life you know what i'm saying trying to get the papers the papers you got new pants on dude you must have got new pants they stretch i yeah listen they're great stretch is necessary man you see these pants you're like that dude never done
Starting point is 00:10:21 drugs yeah that's not true i don't know where you're going with that, because that's not true. No, I have done drugs, but I feel like I don't look like it in these pants. No, you look like you've done drugs. I look like I'm going to pick up the kids. No, those pants are too loose to pick up the kids. Pass me the keys. You look like you're going to pick up the kids and then do drugs. You're going to show them drugs for the first time.
Starting point is 00:10:40 Yeah. That's not. That's the opposite of what I'm saying. I want two things to be perfectly clear one you look great oh you look amazing the other thing is you look like someone trying to get your like trying to prove people that you're getting your life together i think you haven't really gotten your life that's exactly what's happening it was funny because i was there when he tried him on for the first time he was like stretching stretching. He was like lunging. They're pose pants. Yeah, he was posing.
Starting point is 00:11:05 It was very dramatic. I've never had pants with a crotch this high. Now you can post up in front of something. Oh yeah, oh yeah. Speaking of those new pants, why don't you put them back on? Hey, you need to calm down. Don't worry about what I'm doing. I'm hyped! One other fun wrinkle before Marcella chooses the order is this
Starting point is 00:11:21 is Sean and I are roommates. David and Marcella are roommates. Oh wow. This Sean and I are roommates. David and Marcella are roommates. Oh, wow. This is the battle of roommates. Whoa. This is the roommate battle. Oh, shit. Wow.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Yeah. At one point, that was a soundboard. That was Ian. That was a soundboard. That was Ian. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I wish I could do that.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Anytime I burp talk, it's real inconsistent. I'd throw up. That would have like a BPM to it almost. Yeah. I've done too much to my body to be able to do that now yeah it would stuff comes out now oh wow it doesn't really it's supposed to be a joke oh okay not a good joke I think most of them I think that's I think that's not a joke I think you mean that now you backtrack I'm covering my
Starting point is 00:12:01 tracks like the shining why don't you guys define? I think you're just walking back the path you walked. Isn't that the best when you get to call someone out like that? Where you're just like, no, no. No. You're not lying. You meant that. Stuff does come out. Someone tells you some crazy story about where they beat off.
Starting point is 00:12:15 And later in the night, they're like, you know I was fucking around. No, no. You weren't. That's me sitting in the audience of every alternative comedy open mic. Oh, yeah. No, that's true. Just kidding. I'm pretty sure you did yeah. No, that's true. Just kidding. I'm pretty sure you did that.
Starting point is 00:12:25 No, you did that. Yeah. You fucked a picture of your own face with a mouth cut out. You definitely did that. So what order will we be drafting in today, Marcella? And I will remind you, it is a serpentine draft. And what is that like?
Starting point is 00:12:39 Well, that means if you go fourth in the first round, you know, you pick first and the second. Let's say you walked into the mall. You got something at Food Court. You're like, I'm going to go get a hat. You go to Lid's. It's on the other side of the mall. It is.
Starting point is 00:12:52 And then you're like, I want to go get a Julius, though. So you got to go back to the Food Court. And then you look at your receipt and you're like, fuck. Buy one, get one half off. Back to Lid's, playboy. There it is. You just go back and forth like a snake. Back and forth between the Julius and the mall.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Is Lid's listening to this yet? I don't know. That's what I'm shooting for. Wait, so I get to pick the order for the whole thing? For the whole thing. Oh, wow. Yeah. I feel like Kanye has so much power.
Starting point is 00:13:13 Yeah. No one, Marcella. Also, she has a Kanye skirt on. Oh, yeah. We should bring that up. Oh, God, yeah. Marcella's wearing an all Kanye West skirt. We'll take a picture afterwards, and then you guys can see.
Starting point is 00:13:24 It's a great skirt. I got it online many years ago. It is fantastic. It's a great skirt. Yeah, it's great. And then he married Kim and then I was like, I don't really like wearing this anymore. Because it's an affront to Kim Kardashian
Starting point is 00:13:36 and the sanctity of their marriage. Yeah, it is. Yeah, that's what I'm worried about. It's sanctimonious. That's why I had to get rid of my Ryan Phillippe pants. Okay, here's the order. Here's the order. I've decided.
Starting point is 00:13:47 It's going to go David, Ian, me, Sean. We haven't done that in a while. All right. All right. We haven't gone figure eight in a while like that. I like it. I was hoping to go either first or last. I'm really excited.
Starting point is 00:14:00 I know you were. Yeah. You can feel that. I know what everybody wanted, and I mixed it up. Fuck. All right. I'm good that. I know what everybody wanted, and I mixed it up. Fuck. All right. I'm good at what I do. All right.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Well, with the first pick in the Kanye West All Fantasy Everything draft, David Borey, you are on the board. Don't. I pick. You are on the David Borey. Don't worry, Sean. It's not going to be fucking Gold Digger. All right?
Starting point is 00:14:21 What's wrong with Gold? All right. Well, I mean. As a first pick, that's crazy. Okay. First pick, bound to the video and the song. You can't pick them both. Why would anybody pick the other one?
Starting point is 00:14:33 Yeah, I can do whatever I want. Well, you picked the video. That means you picked the song. The song is playing during the video. That video is like, when I watch that video, I feel like I could do anything. Like, there's no rules. He's wearing two plaid shirts. He is.
Starting point is 00:14:48 And he's riding a motorcycle past those horses. True, like the Mojave Desert. And it's still a rap song. It's still a rap video. Like, when I was a kid, it was like, I get around, chicks in the pool. And then Kanye's just like, no, I know you're tired of being alone. Yeah. I know you're tired of being alone. Yeah. I know you're tired of loving.
Starting point is 00:15:06 Sing it. Of loving with nobody to love. Nobody. Nobody. Oh, honey. Man, it's just so great. It's like. He says can't get spunk on the mink in that song.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Yeah. That's the life I want. What would you rommy, rommy, rommy, rom think? It's like. It's just like the coolest shit. And That's the life I want. What would you Romy, Romy, Romy, Romy think? It's like, it's just like the coolest shit and it's still a rap video.
Starting point is 00:15:30 It is. It's dope. It's like, I'd never seen a rap, I just, it's so far outside of what everything else is and like when it happened,
Starting point is 00:15:38 I like wasn't ready for that video. Yeah. Like the first time I saw it, I was just like, what is, I didn't even like it at first. I was like,
Starting point is 00:15:44 this is stupid. It took, it had a high learning curve.? I didn't even like it at first. I was like, this is stupid. It had a high learning curve. I wasn't sure at first. That video looked like it would be playing on a building in futuristic Tokyo and Blade Runner or something like that. Like there's horses running and opinions. It was also like an homage to old school filming where it's like it's obviously not happening in front of this right right background but it's so fucking cool to see the dimensions of the two images right yeah like this high-tech digital image and then yeah but it's obviously on a soundstage somewhere it's just like
Starting point is 00:16:17 i feel like that video of all his videos maybe one other one i can think of but like that one is the most kanye kanye and off yeah you know what i mean like that video is like that's that dude like if there was one if you were like what's this guy about i'd show you bound to yeah and then reverse from there yeah that definitely encapsulates especially modern kanye yeah man and yeah two plaid shirts at one time is the craziest shit in the world also his wife is in it naked. On that motorcycle. Sitting backwards on a motorcycle, just like jiggling really, really hard.
Starting point is 00:16:51 And she has things to jiggle. I don't want to work blue here on the podcast. Pardon my French. I'm not trying to take that explicit box when we upload. I mean, I do every time, but I'm not trying to do that. Yeah, it's going to be a red box next to this one. I'm not trying to scare away the Unitarian Church, a possible future sponsor. But my mom called that.
Starting point is 00:17:10 She asked me if I saw the new Kim Kardashian video when that came out. Yeah. Wow. She didn't even associate it with Kanye West, though. She just thought it was a Kim Kardashian video. But that's like how broad this dude is. Is he got to say spunk? Your mom saw Kanye West say, don't get spunk on the mink.
Starting point is 00:17:24 That's like the power of Kanye, if anything else is bound to my first pick. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Excellent pick. Was that the first glimpse into the modern Kanye? Was that the first where we're like, this is the path he's going down? No, he had been like that.
Starting point is 00:17:39 But that was the video for it, I think. All right. Or no, there's another. It's hard because we're only one in. I know. I didn't want it. I didn't want it. All right. Or no, there's another. It's hard because we're only one in. I know. All right, damn it. It's my pick already. You wanted to go first, you said.
Starting point is 00:17:56 I really wanted to go fourth. I know you did. I have so many things to pick. That's why you created that arbitrary rule so that you could always have it. 50 shows ago, I was like, one day we're going to draft Kanye. many things to pick. That's why you created that arbitrary rule so that you could always have it. The serpentine draft. 50 shows ago, I was like, one day we're going to draft Kanye.
Starting point is 00:18:09 It's not an arbitrary rule. It's to give advantages to both the first picker and the fourth picker. As they, you know, go back and forth. Yeah, that's why you always want to be the first or the fourth. As it is a serpentine draft.
Starting point is 00:18:17 See, I don't like sometimes, well, neither here nor there. Yeah, okay, yeah. No, it's all here and here, you sons of bitches. Right here. Beautiful HeadGum Studio in scenic downtown Los Angeles. All right.
Starting point is 00:18:31 You gotta just pull the trigger. God, I hate it. You just gotta make a decision, man. You got it. You got it. Just based on the room I'm sitting in right now, I'm gonna take Good Fridays. Fuck. That was funny.
Starting point is 00:18:42 I knew it. I was just listening to it on the way here. I was too. I'm going to listen. I'm going to pick that first. That's a good first pick. We're recording on a Friday. God damn it.
Starting point is 00:18:50 Oh, that's romantic. For the listeners who don't know. This is so romantic. Right? Yeah. Are you looking at my pics? Friday evening? Are you looking at my pics?
Starting point is 00:18:57 Yeah, I am. Don't look at my pics. Also, I can't read your handwriting. Look at his pics. He should hold his cards a little closer to his vest. I can't read. Also, I can't read your handwriting. Look, it is fixed. He should hold his cards a little closer to his vest. I can't read. Also, I can't read. In the summer of 2010, prior to the release of Kanye's album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy,
Starting point is 00:19:12 for 16 weeks or something like that, Kanye would put out a new song. It was 2010? It was 2010, dude. It was a long time ago. Yeah, yeah. Are you sure? Holy shit, that's crazy. I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:19:24 Yeah, I think it was a long time ago yeah yeah holy shit 100 sure yeah that's crazy um he would just put out a new album quality song not like not oh my god it was such a good time yeah it was so good because little wayne would drop like mixtapes and like there'd be like some good songs and then there'd be some things where like what do you you're like rapping over a car commercial i'm not gonna shit on the drop i'm not gonna show that not me neither but he put out a lot of stuff but like good fridays every song was like this could be on an album a lot of them did end up being on albums like i think uh no devil in a new huh don't name any other songs okay uh well good fridays encapsulates a lot of them yeah i guess i'll just talk about the so anyway if you're interested in which ones
Starting point is 00:20:03 made it to albums go look it up up. That's the hard part. Devil in a New Dress, I don't think anyone was going to pick. I'm not going to say the big ones. Yeah. Which was like a Rick Ross song. Anyway. It was just such an exciting time, because he was like...
Starting point is 00:20:17 This is like prime... This is like... Kanye was a huge artist at that point. This was after graduation. But they were all free, right? They were all free. I was going to mention that. That was one of the first instances
Starting point is 00:20:29 we saw an artist as big as him giving away his music for free. And it was brand new where you could plug your phone in or whatever and just be like, I can just have this on my phone. Look at this shit. And then you walked down the street
Starting point is 00:20:38 listening to it. That was the first time I really remember doing that. And it was fucking sick. And it wasn't just kanye songs it was like the featured arts the collaboration yeah yeah insane i mean yeah insane like charles bradley push a t uh god that's just one song huh yeah oh r.i.p yeah oh push a t died i would be inconsolable it was that was also right around the time that we met each other and so that's this sounds i don't
Starting point is 00:21:04 know this is getting sentimental but that was what that's what I think about when I hear that. I think about a really good time in my life, moving to Portland and formative years in comedy and everything. It's fantastic. I would listen to the song Good Friday. One of them was called Good Fridays. And I would listen to that. I was working at the Netflix call center. I hated my job.
Starting point is 00:21:23 I had to work on actual Fridays. So my Friday wasn't even a Friday. Yeah. So, but it was like a Wednesday and then I would have two days off and I would listen to that song every day. I'm like the last shift of the week. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:35 And it would like, just like my mood would right through the roof. He makes really good music for like being at a job you hate, just like to get through. Yeah. There's like so many, I mean, getting through life in general. Cause he was like a middle class yeah there's like so many i mean getting through life
Starting point is 00:21:45 in general because he was like a middle class kid so he like i mean his struggles were like shit i'm like gonna work at the fucking gap i got a double tonight or something like that it was also dope because it was arbitrary he just dropped on a friday and then it came out of nowhere yeah we didn't know how long it was gonna last we also know that was when we were like, he's an emotional man. He's impulsive. This could end at any time. So every Friday, one new song came out. You were like, this is so fucking incredible.
Starting point is 00:22:13 There wasn't any buzz about it. Twitter wasn't huge or anything. You just had to be cool. You weren't really anticipating. Oh, yeah. But there was a Bieber song. Jay-Z jumped on some of them rick ross yeah ray quants that bieber song that verse still i still love that bieber verse oh on uh runway
Starting point is 00:22:31 love yeah i love it yeah we're just gonna say all the songs well no i'm trying not to that's a good that's just a good friday song yeah yeah yeah so just it was just so dope it was one of the coolest things about Kanye. You would just go to his website. There'd be a new song every Friday, as if Fridays needed any help being dope. It was so great. That's what was cool about it.
Starting point is 00:22:52 It dropped on a Friday, and you didn't have your weekend with the song. Yeah, and most of them were good. A couple, you know, I don't really fuck with anymore. They're experimental. Yeah. There was even a Christmas song that he put out. But that's what was cool about it,
Starting point is 00:23:05 was that it was free so you were like this is fucking incredible. Right. Exactly. I would sit I just got my first laptop and I'd sit with a 40 on our porch
Starting point is 00:23:13 and I'd listen to Good Friday and on a Friday night it had to be a Friday night and I'd just be fucking like just drinking the 40 thinking God this is tight. Look at where I live. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:20 It's the best. Look at where I live. I live in a house. Yeah I live in a house. I got socks on. Four hots and a cot, Playboy. I'm good. So now I'm praying to Yeezus that my next first pick that I wanted is also going to
Starting point is 00:23:31 be there. I doubt it will. But we'll see. It might be. I just can't imagine there being too much overlap because it's so broad. It is broad and personal. I don't know. We know each other pretty well.
Starting point is 00:23:41 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sean and I especially. Not like I'm gunning for the picks, but it might be. We know each other pretty well. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sean and I especially. Not like I'm gunning for the picks, but it might be. Good Fridays, I believe, is a first round pick, but I only took it because I was afraid you were going to.
Starting point is 00:23:50 I was going to. It was going to be the first pick. I never took it because I knew one of the white boys would take it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the kind of bitch I am. And you were 100% right. All the way to Jewish. We're not white.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Okay, all right. I'm Irish. He's Jewish. We're better than white people. Well, were you going to make the Irish? Listen, I'm Irish. We're not white. I wouldn't call myself a white boy. I'm Irish, he's Jewish. We're better than white people. Whoa, were you going to make the Irish? Listen, I'm Irish. We're not white. I wouldn't call myself a white boy.
Starting point is 00:24:09 I'm Irish. If you're Irish, you're worse than white. You're telling me. You're telling me. Are you really white if you're jaundiced all the time from the liquor? Tell that to my dead father. The liquor and the wine. Oh, come on. I got a dead dad, too. You want to compete? No. From the liquor and the pipe? Oh, come on.
Starting point is 00:24:25 I got a dead dad, too. You want to compete? No. Are we going to have a dead dad off? Ooh, a dead dad off. Missing dad off? Dead dad off. Do you have a dad?
Starting point is 00:24:32 I do have a dad, Ivan Carmel. He's active in your life? Doing great. Living in Portland, Oregon. Go fuck yourself. I'm going to call him. I will. I will do that.
Starting point is 00:24:41 I'm going to call him. Ivan's pert near active in my life. He's amazing. I sat next to him at a comedy show once. Good guy. I thought you meant will do that. I'm going to call him. Ivan's pert near active in my life. He's amazing. I sat next to him at a comedy show once. Good God. I thought you meant your own dad. Hey, you want to go to a comedy show? I just mean you bumped into your own dad at a comedy show.
Starting point is 00:24:56 That would be the craziest. That would be crazy. Okay, Good Friday is my pick. Marcella, it's time for your first pick. Okay, this is actually my fourth pick on my list Because you guys are I thought you guys were going to be a little more A little more fun
Starting point is 00:25:11 So I'm going to pick Last Call from College Dropout God damn it! God damn it, you bitch! David Borey No, you guys don't know what happened You bitch! Never heard him say it in his life I've never heard you say that David Borey no you guys don't know what happened ah you bitch David Borey no you guys don't know
Starting point is 00:25:25 what never heard him say in his life I've never heard you say that I'm an innocent victim here you are the worst he's seething
Starting point is 00:25:34 you said come with strategy and I did I like to pretend the two of you don't have any history like we should like you're not really good friends
Starting point is 00:25:41 we should like make fun of the listeners friends or roommates David met Marcella downstairs, guys. I just want to point that out. And then he just yelled out and called her a bitch in front of everybody. A couple times.
Starting point is 00:25:50 Yeah. It's not the first time. He's got a knife out and he's stabbing the foam noise dampeners in the studio. It's gotten me in trouble quite a few times. Yeah, this exact scenario has gotten me in trouble a bunch of times. But we're not talking about that.
Starting point is 00:26:00 No, we're not. We're talking about Last Call on the College Dropout. Last Call on the College Dropout. My favorite thing about that song isn't the song itself. Oh, get out of here. No, but that's what I'm saying. It's so good. Yeah, it is the best.
Starting point is 00:26:13 The production is amazing. The song is great. The lyrics are great. But the best part about that song is him rambling. Because it was our first glimpse into his ego. It was. I love it, too, because it was my first glimpse into like literally what the come up was yeah like you had never heard somebody lay it out so and he was like
Starting point is 00:26:33 he was like yeah i didn't have that much money and then my mom came over and we packed up my shit and i like it's just like you i you would never because rappers are so full of shit yeah yeah they're just like been rapping since I was 15 making millions I didn't even need rap I was a millionaire already and he's like that story, I'm sorry
Starting point is 00:26:54 you explain your pick you're right, you're right that I'm right but I always wanted to do that with a comedy album once I heard that I was like I'm going to do this with a comedy album. Like once I heard that, I was like, I'm going to do this with a comedy album. That's so dope. I'm going to like have like a solid, you know, 45 to an hour album.
Starting point is 00:27:11 Yeah. And at the end, just explain the come up and the glow up and have all these little like shit talking moment with the same beat. I'm going to absolutely use the same beat. I would say fuck. I feel like Kanye would not care. And I'm going to do the like shit talking on like clubs that won't book me people like men that have screwed me over for money like bookers and all this shit because i was like he the fact that he did that on her on on the college dropout was so fucking amazing and incredible and i always
Starting point is 00:27:41 love that it always makes me laugh and it's also something like usually when when rappers talk or they have skits you kind of skip over it because sometimes you're like you guys think you're funny you're not that funny yes but connie was sincere he was interesting sure and honest and just it was transparent and i fucking loved it i loved it i loved him in that moment i was like and that's how he ended the album it was the best way to end that was the last track it does it is like and it gets right to the heart i think of what people really love who love kanye really love about kanye which is vulnerable and like speaking openly and not putting on airs at all which is like really not that he doesn't do that in a lot of his songs absolutely he does he's still a rapper but like it comes down I can take I'll listen to a hundred times of him being cocky because I
Starting point is 00:28:30 heard that like to me that's like the most endearing thing right that like that endeared him to me on that album was like hearing that was just because it was like you listen to the album and you're like I for me personally I was like that's the first time I ever felt like a rapper was like me yeah exactly hearing that it didn't I ever felt like a rapper was like me. Yeah. Exactly. Hearing that, it didn't seem crazy to be a rapper. Yeah. Like, when you listen to him talk about it, you're like, well, I could do that. Like, that is just so inspirational, man.
Starting point is 00:28:54 That part means a lot to me. Right, right, right. Because so many people would make it look like there was a point A, I was broke. Point B, I'm a famous rapper. Yeah. And he was like, famous rapper is like point A point like a a a a a Z There's so many like little steps in yeah, you know, he doesn't pretend like he was like selling drugs Yeah, he was just like no this is what I was doing This is how he like called out everybody like those ad libs are so dope like when he talks about damed
Starting point is 00:29:18 Dashie's like yo this nigga got classics to your shit beat and then we like says it yeah Oh, man, it's just and it opens beat. And then he like says it. Yeah. Like, oh, man. It was just so. And it opens with Jay-Z saying, fuck you, Kanye. Yeah. Oh, man. Yeah, that part is so great. It's great. And it's like he literally raps for three minutes and then talks for like six minutes.
Starting point is 00:29:36 It's so long. It's such a long track. It's so long. And it feels like you're going to get sick of it, but you're so engrossed in it. You never get sick of it. Never get sick of it. Ah, man. Also, I just just want to say I called Marcelle a bitch because I was making eggs
Starting point is 00:29:49 today and she was humming that and I leaned over and I was like Yeah and I was like is that one of your picks? She was like don't worry about it. And I was like alright then. And that's when you started sweating. I'm always sweating. You're fat you are always sweating.
Starting point is 00:30:05 What were you, what kind of eggs? What do you mean? What kind of eggs did you end up making? I don't know. He called them men's eggs. He says that all men know how to make this one dish. Oh, yeah, all men, like all dudes do the same. You get a bunch of vegetables and a couple meats,
Starting point is 00:30:17 and you put it all together. You made a scramble. Those are restaurant's eggs. I just make the eggs. Yeah, but who do you think in the kitchen is making those? Yeah, men for sure. Oh, no, I do scramble. You like chop up some like, well, not broccoli.
Starting point is 00:30:28 I do broccoli because I had some. Eggs and hot sauce. Onions, peppers. Yeah. Get some spinach in there. You could throw some asparagus. Cognac. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Oh. Oh, wow. I really get so mad when I do stuff like that. We'll be right back. That was a religious joke. That was like a religious daytime radio joke. Come on, Yeggs. It's no Sam and Diane, which made us so angry.
Starting point is 00:30:58 There are actual- People loved it. Did you look at Twitter? There's actual sushi restaurants and shit that have that on their menu. I looked at Twitter for nine hours today because I hate my job. No, I don't hate my job. I love my job. I hate jobs.
Starting point is 00:31:11 I don't hate my job. There you go. All right. Sean, tell Jordan. All right. Well, everybody picked a song. The pride of North Dakota. North Dakota?

Keep talking until you get it right. I got all night. Keep talking until you say where I'm actually from. With the fourth pick, Toledo's own.

Starting point is 00:32:00 With my first pick, I'm going to pick a line. Oh, I like that. It's my favorite Kanye line line and it's what you think i rap for to push a fucking rav4 fuck yeah and that's gonna be my first pick i i bought a 2016 rav4 recently and every time well now i feel like a fucking no i'm not picking that line okay but i'm saying every time i tell i got a new car car. Somebody goes, what'd you get? I bought a RAV4. What do you think I fucking, I can't even say it. I bought a RAV4. What do you think I bought a RAV4?
Starting point is 00:32:31 I fucking RAV4. I've been saying that to people and not everybody gets it. There's been like two homegirls that get it. So I think that's a great pick because I've been saying it so much lately. I don't want you to think that I'm, you didn't bust that quote on me and you were telling me about your new car backstage at UCB. Yeah, because you're a comic. I'm not trying to
Starting point is 00:32:51 do that to you. This is what I do with regular people. Oh, it's a little regular person life bit. Listen, he's a regular guy. He gets up. No, he's not. Look at these shorts. What about this outfit that doesn't say regular guy? It's really gross. I look like I'm putting a deck in this weekend. He goes to the gym one hour a day like everybody else, you know?
Starting point is 00:33:08 Okay, go back to your pick. I mean, it's just an icy line. I love it. It's a great line. It's funny. It's on Run This Town. It's funny. It's gangster.
Starting point is 00:33:16 It gets the point across, and it lets you know what he's doing. I love it. I think it's awesome. It's a great line. I picked that. You picked Run This Town? What you think I rap for to push a fucking rap for on the songs that give you goosebumps.
Starting point is 00:33:30 Yeah. Because that line has always given me fucking goosebumps. It's tough. It is. It's, yeah, it's just fucking. I guess that whole song, but I love that line specifically. Yeah. It's such a funny line. Rihanna really murders that song. Next time I'm in church, please no photos.
Starting point is 00:33:50 Yeah, bought my whole family whips no volvos yeah which by the way i would a volvo oh dude a rep give me a rep for look at this outfit yeah that's white people car i don't want a volvo yeah you see the buick century out there give me a rev for this black family does not want volvos no unless they're africans yeah if they're african that's true oh that's interesting connie strikes me as someone who doesn't talk to his african side i don't think you would there's just a bunch of dudes in ghana like no for real my cousin is famous shout out to my cousins in sierra leone do the same thing yeah uh and they do what you think i rap for to push your fucking rap and they be and they be uh yeah it's
Starting point is 00:34:25 a it's a great line what do you what do you like so much about it i just like it it's you relate to it does it bring out anything inside of you no it's uh it's cold-blooded yeah i just like how fucking it's so true yes so true well when i when i if i can just uh hearken back to the thing i said when i was talking about on a previous podcast, I love like it, not that I would be fine with a rav for, and also I've been writing on a show for like three years. So it's not like I've been like really laying it all on the line and going
Starting point is 00:34:54 for it, but it kind of, as standup comedians, it kind of encapsulates part. Like what that line says to me is like, I didn't, I didn't get into this high risk, you know, where it's either where I I'm either eating fucking ramen noodle packets.
Starting point is 00:35:08 You're going to succeed. Or at Mastro's in Beverly Hills, where it's a real feast or famine situation. I didn't get into this to settle. I didn't get into the middle ground. I didn't get to the league to ride the bench. I came to ball. Right, exactly. And that's what I fucking love about that line so much
Starting point is 00:35:26 is it's like, it sort of encapsulates. Yeah, it's not on the surface like I wouldn't drive a RAV4. It's a lot deeper than that, obviously. Right, exactly. Because some people don't give a fuck about cars. I would drive a RAV4 even if I was incredibly rich. I'll drive that Miracle Whip until it fucking falls apart. Which is soon.
Starting point is 00:35:42 Mayonnaise beans. Yeah, so that's what I love about that line excellent excellent that's a great line any further discussion on what you think i rap for to push a fucking rap for i'm all good on to the next one he's got to do back to back yeah yeah serpentine so the next one my next one i'm gonna pick uh i'm about kanye i'm gonna pick that that he introduced Jamie Foxx's singing to me. Oh, interesting. Did you not watch the Jamie Foxx show? No. I didn't know that Jamie Foxx was a good singer

Luther Bandrose. Is that the stupid thing that was in? A little Anita. I was thinking of Gold Digger. I mean, I knew
Starting point is 00:36:34 that he was on that, but I was thinking of Gold Digger when I was thinking about it. He's singing on Gold Digger for three seconds. And as someone else. Jamie Foxx is just
Starting point is 00:36:41 doing Ray Charles, but just at the beginning of that song, and the rest of it is a Ray Charles sample. Didn't know that. That's cool. I just want to Charles, but just at the beginning of that song. And the rest of it is a Ray Charles sample. Didn't know that. That's cool. I just want to say, Sean, you've been taking a lot of heat this week.

Some of those lyrics are punchlines, and they don't mean to be. Yeah. But they do, though. Yeah, it does mean.

You're right jamie foxx did that's a lot of people did learn about jamie foxx uh through slow jams but what's funny is i was because i was you know researching
Starting point is 00:39:15 this and i knew somebody was going to pick a jamie foxx pick so i didn't keep it in my list but i didn't know here's what i didn't know jamie Foxx had an album called Peep This in 1994. Did he really? Yes. I believe that. An album called Peep This? Was it on Jive? I don't know. I feel like Chad put out a lot of products.
Starting point is 00:39:31 If I had time. I can see the logo. Yeah, here it is. Just see. Oh, man. Red suit coat. Red suit coat. I don't think you were allowed to be a black dude comedian in the 90s and not have a red
Starting point is 00:39:44 suit coat. It wasn't allowed. They all had one. But there was not, like now, so many comedians, actors are kind of like crossing over to different genres easy. You know? I think Childish Gambino really like fucking. Yeah, blew the door open. I mean, he really did.
Starting point is 00:39:59 Oh, that's crazy. But Jamie Foxx was one of the first people to really do it. And he has an Oscar at Tony. He has so much shit. Jamie Foxx can do everything the first people to really do it. And he has an Oscar, a Tony. He has so much shit. Jamie Foxx can do everything. He can do everything. And I have a pair of sunglasses that he sent to the Late Late Show.

Starting point is 00:40:21 If you guys ever see the kitchen counter, you'll know they're sick. What year did Slow Jams come out? Because I'm trying to figure out when the first time I saw it. What album? Was it on late registration? Yeah, it was on late registration. I had just done stand-up. 2004.
Starting point is 00:40:36 Oh, shit. That didn't come out. I was still in high school. Yeah. Jesus, you were in high school when I started stand-up? How old are you, David? I'm 30. Man.
Starting point is 00:40:42 My dad bought me a Jamie Foxx album. Oh, with like Blame It On Alcohol? Unpredictable. Not even. Oh, unpredictable. Dude, I used to work in the, I used to watch dishes at this old folks home. And this lady who was there was the meanest old lady to me. And she didn't have no teeth.
Starting point is 00:41:01 But we had a radio in the kitchen. Because you didn't call her a bitch? I didn't call her a bitch. Wait, wait, finish it. But we had a radio in the kitchen. And she would always sing. I didn't call her a bitch. Wait, wait. Finish it. But we had a kitchen. We had a radio in the kitchen. And Unpredictable would come on.
Starting point is 00:41:11 And she would just stop everything and be like, that's my shit. And then she would sing. And she would do spins and shit. And she'd be going out of the kitchen like, girl, get comfortable. It was like, I'll never forget that about that song. She loved Jamie Foxx. She loves stealth. Who doesn't love Jamie Foxx?
Starting point is 00:41:29 I love Jamie Foxx. It's hard to not. Jamie Foxx is fantastic. He's never missed. Never. He's missed. What did he miss? That movie Stealth was weird.
Starting point is 00:41:37 That wasn't his fault. Okay. I didn't realize I was with a bunch of Jamie Foxx apologists. That was Jessica Biel's fault, god damn it. I hope when I fuck up, someone's like, that wasn't her fault. That's such a good line. I'm going to use it all the time. That wasn't his fault. But my dad bought me,
Starting point is 00:41:53 he would, for like my Hanukkah or like my birthdays, he would just buy me like albums sometimes, but not, he'd just walk into like Borders. One of the kids listening to.

Let me ask you a quick correction.
Starting point is 00:43:34 I don't really like Nappy Roots. I listened to Nappy Roots in high school. They had a song on Madden, all right? And that – Wait, which song was on Madden? You used to turn on Madden to listen to Nappy Roots and not play. Which song was on- I would sit around.

It's a hassle to go through and get. You have to research it, which I don't like researching anything. If I buy something, I just go into the person that works at the store and say, what is right in the middle? What's not the best? What's not the worst? And that is how I do it.

You're going to stick your loved ones with the bill. Don't nobody want to do that. You know what I mean? Get covered. I don't want anyone inheriting my debt. And then they see what I spent money on.

Starting point is 00:51:32 All right. Marcella, it's time for your second pick. Oh, wow. My second pick. Wait, I thought it was time for your second. No, we're done. Oh, I got it. Oh, yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:51:44 Oh, gosh. Mm- right. Oh, gosh. Clock is? I'm going to make an unusual pick. Oh. I'm going to choose, as one of my favorite Kanye moments, Amber Rose. Oh. He took her off the porch. Fingering in the booty ass.
Starting point is 00:52:01 Yeah, not just that. Not just those two great reasons. Not just because she inspired my beautiful dark twisted fantasy because she did but also she is one of the dopest women she's a great feminist
Starting point is 00:52:16 especially for like hood chicks because I think a lot of women of color that are from the hood don't think of feminism as something that they can like participate in. Right. And she's made it accessible and then fast forward
Starting point is 00:52:29 to right now if it wasn't for Kanye getting the stripper out of that bullshit we wouldn't have Cardi B because she popularized and normalized like strippers
Starting point is 00:52:41 and the come up and people were just like yeah this is like a beautiful woman. She's on Instagram. She used to be a stripper. Who cares? And now fast forward to Cardi B, people are like they don't bat an eyelash to it. Of course. It's not weird at all.
Starting point is 00:52:55 They normalized it. She normalized it. And I love Amber Rose. I know there's a lot of women who don't like her for many, many reasons, but I think that she changed I love Amber Rose. I know there's a lot of women who don't like her for many, many reasons. But I think that she changed a lot. And she was one of the OG, almost like Instagram honey, but not really an Instagram honey. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:17 And she was there with the Taylor Swift moment. She was probably my favorite girlfriend of Kanye's. Yeah. She was. She was normal and dope and real and fun and she seems like she'd be fun humor she seems like her own than him like to hang out with yeah she seems like a substantial human being like there's more she exists on her own in a meaningful way yes apart from kanye yeah you know and which is why it was great why she was great
Starting point is 00:53:43 for him also kim kard Kim Kardashian does as well, but I, what is hanging out with him? Yeah, no, no. I don't want to hang out with Kim Kardashian. No.
Starting point is 00:53:51 I remember talking to my brother about Kim when the Yeezus album came out, we were like, imagine Kanye playing new slaves for Kim in the studio. She's just like, it's green. That's exactly. She wouldn't know. She's on her phone the whole time. Amber would have been like, it's great that's exactly she wouldn't know she's on her phone
Starting point is 00:54:05 the whole time but amber would have been like breaking shit yeah she'd be like there's that next shit oh you want it like oh my god she's like smoking a blunt and she's being truthful yeah like you know that she's being sincere and i think the only downside to um amber rose is that um one day someone's going to teach Northwest to say, Yeezy taught me. Oh, yeah. And that's going to backfire in Kanye's face. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:30 That's right. But, you know, sometimes you lose. You got it. You got taken out. Sometimes you win. Sometimes you lose. You can score more points than the other team. You know, it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:54:40 You lost the game. Yeah. Amber Rose is cool. What was I going to ask ask i had an interesting thing that i thought no it completely lost my head that's what you think of all your thoughts can you ask why i stuttered when i was saying more so hard a second ago i said more five times just what what how did i miss that too i'm surprised nobody called me this is where the podcast gets good when we go back and try to backtrack
Starting point is 00:55:05 how I stuttered. When I forget a thought and then you go, you talk about you having stuttered a few seconds ago. That's what they want. That's what they want.
Starting point is 00:55:13 These are the hits. She's with, this wasn't what I was thinking of, but she's with Wiz Khalifa now still? Are they still together? Is that over too? No, no, she's with 21 Savage. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:55:20 What? Oh yeah. Great album, by the way. She always got a new rapper boyfriend. Yeah, yeah yeah yeah she stays with these young rappers which is pretty dope
Starting point is 00:55:27 she's just like a player that's what was interesting she was with Connie for two years they didn't have a baby I didn't know that they were together that long that was a while
Starting point is 00:55:35 especially for Hollywood and I feel like that was to me that's always his one true love but I'm a crazy Connie fan I think you're probably right I mean you used to look at old videos of Connie
Starting point is 00:55:44 in the studio and she'd be like hanging out and think and not like in the corner yeah he loves to be like standing up and like well he listens i mean this might make a look inside the podcast he might look inside we might have to uh let's parent trap him kanye i heard amber rose uh wanted to get together earth he really hurt her especially after calling her a hoe after everything was said and done. That was really unforgivable. That was mean.
Starting point is 00:56:08 That was really fucked up. That was not a classy Kanye moment. Well, that's how you also know he was so in love with her. Yeah, like he was- Because you know that it was hurtful. Yes, he was actually in his fear. He was actually hurtful shit. He said hurtful shit.
Starting point is 00:56:19 We've all done it. Come on, man. You're sad about a person. Uh-oh, here goes David. Yeah, I guess. Oh, oh, no. Okay, fuck me then. Oh're sad about a person. Uh-oh, here goes David. Yeah, I guess. Oh, no, okay. Fuck me then. Fuck me.
Starting point is 00:56:28 Okay. Ian's just not going to admit anything on the podcast. I don't know if I've lashed out publicly. No. Oh, I've never lashed out publicly. That's what's weird about fame. I'm also not a rapper. I don't have those-
Starting point is 00:56:38 Yeah, that's what I was going to say. Being famous makes everything more complicated. I used to put little quotes on MySpace. You know how you could put your little quote up on top? Yeah. Oh, boy. I used to make that like a little inside jab to the girl that ruined me.
Starting point is 00:56:48 These are my confessions. Right up there at the top of your MySpace. These are my confessions. Was that the automatic song that played when you clicked on your MySpace? It would be confession. Was it even out yet? I don't know, years.
Starting point is 00:57:01 Oh, Usher's going to be on Drop the Mic. Yeah, oh yeah. Pete Busher on Drop the Mic. That guy is cool. And make sure to buy tickets to my December 22nd show at Revolution Hall. So bringing us Amber Rose. Great pick. I will never remember the thing I was going to try to bring up about her.
Starting point is 00:57:17 You might. Did she invent the slut walk? I thought that was her whole thing. Yeah, that's her thing. That's hers. I don't know if she invented it, but it hers but she's like a bit yeah yeah she definitely carries the banner for it at the middle or the beginning of october yeah i've never participated but i always wanted to slut walk season coming up that's the season man all right 10 years ago
Starting point is 00:57:38 you just said that oh i know a whole different thing yeah especially on wax like this all right so yes i'm sorry. Amber Rose will be my pick. And also, yeah, she inspired my beautiful dark twisted fantasies. That's what I wanted to, that's maybe what I wanted to ask you about. Did she do that? Yeah, she did. It's about her.
Starting point is 00:57:56 God, that's awesome. She's done interviews where she says there's moments in some of the music that only Kanye and I know what he's talking about. Wow. Yeah. Could you imagine? I have my own version of what I think he's talking about. Wow. Yeah. Could you imagine? I have my own version of what I think he's talking about. If she ever decides to write a book.
Starting point is 00:58:09 She did. Oh, yeah. How to be a bad bitch. Oh, but is it about like. She's opened up about, but I don't think she's gone into. I mean, yeah, she could do a whole book about My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. That would be amazing. And we would all eat it up.
Starting point is 00:58:21 The two of them should write that book together. They should release a new album with audio commentary. Damn. I remember Kanye when I was like, yeah. I'd pay 50 bucks straight up. It'd be very fun to listen to. I'd pay 50 bucks straight up. Cash.
Starting point is 00:58:37 50 hard cash. You should buy Philly? Yeah. Oh, dope. Third and fourth. No, no, except for my second pick. It's his second pick. My second pick.. Third and fourth. No, it's time for my second pick. It's his second pick. My second pick.
Starting point is 00:58:46 My second and third. For my second pick. So I get my other favorite Kanye moment. I've talked about it on the podcast before, but it's Kanye West performing Runaway at the VMAs. Yeah, yeah. Oh, that's such a good pick. Yeah, that's a great pick.
Starting point is 00:58:59 You look for it on YouTube all the time. All the time and it's never there. It's never there. Is it on Tidal? You have to go on the dark web. Is that his, is that like a mandate from him? Is he the reason
Starting point is 00:59:09 that you can't watch that? Oh, I think MTV, Viacom is probably the reason you can't watch that. But what are they fucking saving it for? It's like, what are you just
Starting point is 00:59:17 camping on it for? It's such a great performance. I totally forgot about that shit. He's in the all red, which is maybe my favorite like style era. And that was the first time anybody heard it, or am I crazy? I think that's when he debuted it.
Starting point is 00:59:28 That's when he debuted it, right? Yeah, the album wasn't out yet. So he's out there in all red, completely white stage, just in 808 on a pedestal, I think. And he's out there, and maybe a keyboard too, but he's playing it. And then on the keyboard, the ballerinas come out. And then my favorite thing about it that's not on the album track is, like, there's different samples on the 808 that aren't on the album track. And he just, like, lays into them. And it's so amazing.
Starting point is 00:59:57 He plays, like, these, like, vocal samples. You know, I want to tell you all you look like beautiful stars tonight. Like, he keeps playing it. And, like, an LL Cool J one is like, L cool j one is like ll oh that's right i forgot about that shit it's so good it's so good so there's these like different samples that he's playing and then you know you think it's you're like at this crescendo already you're like this is the fucking best thing i've ever seen and then pusha t comes out in like this pale pink outfit and wraps like one of my favorite Pusha T verses. Oh, it's so good.
Starting point is 01:00:29 Somebody find it and tweet it at all of us, but code it so MTV doesn't find out. Call it like Miller Lightbeam. Oh my God, it's so good. I'm on a Miller Lightbeam. It was just so good. I wish if I would have seen that live, I think I would have died there on the spot. Oh, my God. It's just one of the dopest recordings of like a live performance I've ever, ever seen.
Starting point is 01:00:50 Oh, it's fantastic. If you watch that and you're like, nah, not into it, then you just like will never like. And you're racist. You're racist. Yeah. You probably are. He does so much shit that I listen to him and I'm like, how could you just call this man a rapper?
Starting point is 01:01:03 Yeah. Like there's so much more going on. There's so many things that he does. He's an artist. Yeah. It's everything. He's a rapper like John Lennon was a guitar player. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:01:12 Yeah. I don't know a lot of John Lennon hits, but I assume. Well, you know the Beatles. Yeah. He wrote Drop It Low, right? Yeah. You wrote Apple Bottom Jeans. Major investor in apple bottom jeans.
Starting point is 01:01:26 He didn't write the Players Club, but he had a lot to do with the writing. Financial backing and whatnot. Yeah, yeah. I understand. He had a lot to do. He wrote most of TQ West Side songs. He was a ghost writer for TQ West Side. Hey, man, I had that TQ album.
Starting point is 01:01:39 And was it good? No. Do I remember all those songs fondly? Yes. And that's John Lennon, dude. Bye Bye Baby? You remember Bone Crusher, I Ain't Never Scared? Oh, yeah. Of course, yeah. So I'm outside
Starting point is 01:01:49 of the club and you think I'm a punk. That was like the defensive, offensive lineman anthem. For sure. If you played high school football at any time, we all talked about Bone Crusher. Dave and I are both going as Bone Crusher for Halloween this year.
Starting point is 01:02:08 I remember Sam Talent told me he played. Can I be a crushed bone? Yeah. You can be bone. You can be busy bone. Yeah, you're busy bone. What did Sam Talent tell you? He tried to tell me that Bone Crusher played for Georgia Tech.
Starting point is 01:02:20 Maybe. I believed him at the time. Maybe when he put that song out. He was playing on the team. The lineman had nothing To listen to He's like alright I'll be in the lab all night Yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:02:29 Let me get a song For the fat dudes I would love it If somebody just said that On the top of an R&B song Yeah this is for the fat dudes This is for the fat dudes It's implied in every
Starting point is 01:02:39 Single one of Biggie's songs Yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah That's obvious Puffy edited it out It's in his It's in that speech impediment Yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's obvious. Puffy edited it out. It's in that speech impediment. Did he add a speech impediment?
Starting point is 01:02:51 Listen, I can't. I don't really like to throw rocks at the throne like that. And then just the song Runaway as well. Oh, it's such a good song. It is such a good song. You have to have related those lyrics at some point. Whenever, yeah, it's such a good song. It is such a good song. You have to have related to those lyrics at some point. Whenever, yeah, it's like from the beginning. Yeah, from that first piano key, you're just like, oh, shit.
Starting point is 01:03:12 I had this whole. Who got you? I had it timed out for your going away show when you moved here. I had it timed out with Runaway. And then like the day of, you told me you wanted some fucking song. Is that what it was, Juicy? Yeah, so I'm not some fucking song. Was it? Are you sure it was Juicy for your intro?
Starting point is 01:03:25 Oh, for my intro? To come up on stage. Oh, no. But I don't want like a super meaningful song. God, so mad. Don't tell me it was some fucking song. Juicy when I got off stage, probably. Juicy, that's my special little moment song.
Starting point is 01:03:41 Yeah, I know. David, it's time for your second and your third pick. My second pick. So, a lot of people don't know this, but Kanye West actually also makes beats. Oh, what? It was a thing he did early in his career. Yeah. So I am picking my favorite Kanye West beat before I knew he was famous.
Starting point is 01:03:57 I was a big fan of The Blueprint. Yeah. It came out when I was in ninth grade. That album changed my life. It was what got me. It was when I really understood Jay-Z and just that time changed my life it was what got me it was when i really understood jay-z and like just like that time period hip-hop was important to me and uh the heart of the city beat oh it's so good like that beat is so good that song was so good yeah like i
Starting point is 01:04:18 used to listen he that's a chris rock line from that song first the fat boys break up yeah first the fat that's from boomerang when he was leaving chris rocks like. First, the fat boys break up. Yeah. First, the fat, that's from boomerang when he was leaving. Chris rocks like, Oh man, first, the fat boys break up now this. And like, that song is so great.
Starting point is 01:04:32 And just that, who's going to break up with. Yeah. Yeah. And like the horns and just like, it's like, that is like the sole sample to me is like the heart of the city beat. And then like in the middle of the take them to church.
Starting point is 01:04:44 And like, it's just such a good beat. Like I listen to just that instrumental man i really really love sampling uh bobby blue bland oh yeah who originally wrote that song i have no idea ain't no love you know that's like oh yeah in the heart of the city i was running all the time. The American Gangsters. Yeah, that song is just like, that's like, as far as a producer, because like, you know, the producer is the one who informs who the artist is to you, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:20 So Kanye is, I think about that song specifically, Kanye made me like my favorite rapper. You know what I'm saying? That's a fun. I love Jay-z because of kanye like that's a great way to say it that's how it is if that song wasn't that beat i don't feel the same way about that song like it was just like really that's a really pivotal thing to me was that yeah specific beat he built a skate park your favorite skateboarder all about exactly there you go sean and it's like that whole album pretty stupid so i need you guys to put it to me like this is skateboarding i'm pretty fucking stupid just for our listeners who only think of things in skateboarding terms uh so yeah
Starting point is 01:05:55 that's the blueprint the heart of the city beat is that's my second okay third pick kanye does a lot of other things they're crazy right right? I love the backstories. My third pick is Kanye West, the Gucci sweatpants interview. Do you remember that interview? I don't know what you're talking about. It was with this, I think it was with Radio 1 from the BBC. Oh, yes. And everybody listened to that interview, and they talked on him like he was crazy. Oh, Zane Lowe?
Starting point is 01:06:22 Zane Lowe? It was Zane Lowe. And they took out of that interview, all they took out, I'm yelling. No, it's a great interview. I'm super excited. But it was like,
Starting point is 01:06:30 it was the first time I ever realized that like, oh, people aren't listening to him. Like if you don't like Kanye, it's because you don't listen to what he says. Because he did that interview and everybody was like, Gucci sweatpants? Kanye West,
Starting point is 01:06:42 what a fucking dummy. He's talking about Gucci sweatpants. Like, you what a fucking dummy. He's talking about Gucci sweatpants. Like, you know, Tom, Jane, and Dick said that. But if you listen to that shit, he was like, I wrote niggas in Paris because I was in Paris trying to be a designer. I was in Paris. I was doing the work to study. I went to Gucci with the plans for these designer leather sweatpants. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:04 I went to Gucci. I was like, I think these are going to be fly, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. They were like, no, this is stupid. Like three or four years later, they came out with Gucci sweatpants. And in that same interview, he said, which was one of the dopest interview lines where he was talking about not getting the financial backing to do what he wants to do. He said, my Truman show boat is hitting the wall and the guy was like i don't know what you're talking about mate and he was like i can't nobody will fund me they won't back me my boat is hitting the wall i've
Starting point is 01:07:35 gone as far as i can on my own money yeah i it like just like if you go back and listen to that interview it really shows a lot of just like what these institutions of are of like fashion and art and things and how the race it like he was talking about racism the whole time that's never what not what it was about yeah and that specific interview was like because i listened to it and i listened to that interview and i was like this dude's a fucking genius and then i saw everybody go crazy on that gucci sweatpants line that was the line everybody said it what's he talking about i mean here's the thing that was the epitome of of kanye being ahead of his time yep in real time and in present time and in past time because that interview was so
Starting point is 01:08:17 interesting because it was a reminder to any anybody who's a fucking listener like who listens with their ears and their brain that kanye has always been political he's always been social he's always been savvy he's always been ahead of his time and i i do remember that because people were like oh your boy's fucking crazy and i'm like no he's not there's nothing he's saying that's crazy to me i didn't understand yes and then and you think about right now right now all of a sudden everybody's political all of a sudden every artist is socially aware all of a sudden every fucking buddy has now every industry is racist about race everybody has opinion about politics everybody has opinion right now but kanye was doing that shit and and that's
Starting point is 01:08:56 why kanye's like fuck you i'm just gonna get fat you guys are all fucking stupid i think that's where he's at because he's waiting for people to catch up it's exhausting like i watched that interview and it was like i remember watching it and i watched it like it's really long and i watched it twice in a row it's so good and like i was just like oh no he's like i knew he was i knew i thought he was a really smart guy or whatever but when i watched that and you just hear him talk about everything if you don't leave that interview thinking that this man is like genius level talent then you are racist or closed-minded for some crazy probably racist but like you don't like you're not listening
Starting point is 01:09:31 you're not listening it was incredible totally that whole interview like when he talked about like when he was talking about like fashion yeah and he was like yeah how come only rap companies all we can make is t-shirts billion dollar industries rock aware makes a multi-million dollars all we're making is still t-shirts right like shit like that it was like that interview is like his best it's great because even now when you look at at um his collection his fashion line of like whatever a few years ago it's ahead of his time because it fucking looks like World War III style clothes. He's selling his clothes for after the fallout. But I love it. I fucking love him so much.
Starting point is 01:10:12 There's a lot of people who like aren't probably who weren't racist but who weren't rap fans who weren't able to see what like a visionary and genius he was. But that's also what he said in that interview. Yeah, he talks about it completely. He's like, he said in that interview he put yeah yeah he talks about it completely he's like he's like i have a mind for this and then he's like this is
Starting point is 01:10:29 why it's proven right like he was like i mean you got to go through it but like there's a reason like the fashion thing he was like these are the numbers that i've done fashion wise with my other project this is why i deserve to have a real project yeah he like showed that like okay maybe he is just a rapper but but he still sold more... I don't want... We may have to watch it tonight. Because there's other pics that can be on it,
Starting point is 01:10:49 but, like, he, like, proved himself, and he said it within it. He's like, when have I ever lost? And that's true. Kanye's, his product is never lost. No.
Starting point is 01:10:57 Yeah. Never, ever, ever lost. Well, that's the thing. That's fucking crazy. There's a thing I want to talk about, but I don't want to pick it. I mean, you're up next. I never... Well, I don't want to pick this thing. That's fucking crazy. There's a thing I want to talk about, but I don't want to pick it. I need to hear up next. I never, well, I don't want to pick this thing.
Starting point is 01:11:08 You can talk about it if you're not going to pick it. I don't know if anybody's going to pick it. Then just talk about it. Yeah, just talk about it. The Yeezys, the shoes. God, I was going to talk about it. You were going to pick it? It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 01:11:18 It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter because that's the point. That's the point. Every other rapper in Dorshu is a little bit corny. Yeah. Every other rapper in Dorshue is a little bit corny. Yeah. Garbage. Straight garbage.
Starting point is 01:11:28 They're at best a little bit corny. Did you have a pair of S-Dots? No, I had no S-Dots. I don't even want the Kendrick Reeboks. I don't want any of that shit. It's all corny. But Kanye's shoes immediately took over the shoe game. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:41 And now Adidas has over- The Red Octobers were incredible. Yeah. On Nike. Yeah. Even his shoes on Nike were fucking amazing. took over the shoe game yeah and now adidas the red octobers were incredible on nike yeah even his shoes on nike were fucking amazing they're also like consistently the most expensive sneakers on like aftermarket sneaker websites and stuff like that four grand right they're so expensive but some of them are five figures i can't believe how many pairs i have yeah baron with that shit yeah uh and then the yeezys came in, and Adidas was the third tier,
Starting point is 01:12:06 hopelessly stuck as the third biggest. At some point, maybe to be overtaken by Under Armour, even. You know, bumped down to number four. Also have a lot of pair of Under Armour shoes. You do have a lot of pair of Under Armour. Adidas was stuck at number three in the U.S. market. It went Nike, Jordan,
Starting point is 01:12:22 which is a Nike subsidiary, and then Adidas. Adidas has overtaken Jordan, and a huge part of that is the Yeezys. Oh, yeah. Huge. And if you think, and those were some of the first shoes to have the boost technology. Yep. And it turned Adidas from something where it was like they make the shell toes and maybe
Starting point is 01:12:41 a couple of- It brought them back. Because they're all Yeezys, by the way. But it gave them- All these they're all yeezys by the way but it gave it gave them they all it gave them the ones i'm wearing right now are like easy pirate black like one step down yeah yeah yeah uh i'm wearing yeah these are like ultra boosts uh uncaged for the listeners who care about shoes but like uh yeah and he did that his impact was enough that it lifted a company up over the jordan brand and that's what he was talking about in that interview he was like i broke records with the yeezys
Starting point is 01:13:10 anyone else does that they get their own entire nike line by the way nike's still only giving me one shoe at a time right exactly i proved that i can proven that i can sell and kanye once said uh i ain't trying to front man but the Yeezy jumped over the jump man. He said that years before it happened. And then this year, it literally happened. And I will say, I will say also as a woman,
Starting point is 01:13:34 like, cause you know, I have always looked at men's sneakers. I don't have a lot of men's sneakers. I have a few pairs cause they are very comfortable and I have very big feet, but my eye is always drawn to men's sneakers.
Starting point is 01:13:47 And the Yeezys were the first time I was like, it was something different for once. Oh, it's way different. Like it's not skater boy shoes. It's not, you know what I mean? No, no, no. I think skater, I have skater shoes. Like they're cute, but they're a style. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:03 They're their own thing. They only do one thing and they're, you know, they're, and they're a style yeah they're their own thing they only do one thing and they're you know they're and they're good for what they are sure and then you got like jordans and those are like the other cool you know uh aesthetic that men wear yeah and then and then it was like everything just seemed the same you know it just has their own shit and it's just whatever it just feels like the same the same the same men kind of jerk off on each other with their sneakers but women don't care yeah women don't care but the yeezus were the first time it was like oh these are like are these
Starting point is 01:14:31 dress shoes are they sneakers like what's going on here like they're so fucking interesting to look at yeah as a woman checking out a man you're like what the fuck are those and because you know i don't keep up with sneakers i don't keep up with the Yeezys. I don't give a fuck about them. But when a man has them on. You don't keep up with sneakers wearing those Rihanna Pumas right now? Listen, I'll wear anything Rihanna puts out. That's different. That's a whole different conversation.
Starting point is 01:14:57 It's a whole other episode. Yeah. I will say the newest Yeezy shoe. Are they not? Not great. They're not even for you anymore, man. But that's great, though. Yeah, they're not for us.
Starting point is 01:15:09 That's a great point. But that's good, though. He's gotten so popular, he can make not great Yeezys. There's a lot of bad Jordans. Yeah, exactly. And people still pay top dollar for them. There are a lot of bad Jordans. The Yeezy runner is pretty weird, though.
Starting point is 01:15:20 There are so many ugly Jordans. Yeah, Koston blew it like seven different times with shoes. See? Yep. Those are hideous. Jordans. Yeah, Koston blew it like seven different times with shoes. See? Those are hideous. I mean, those are the new Kanyas. Yeah, they're hideous. Yeah, they're bad. It's like a mix of this new
Starting point is 01:15:35 Steph Curry. Everybody Google those right now. I know they're not for me anymore. I'm not that old. No. They're ugly. Hey, one man's ugly is another man's 21 Savage. That's true. Or whatever. Yeah, I was going to say, I mean, if you do the one man's trash, one man's treasure,
Starting point is 01:15:52 you could say Kanye West, Ray J. Yeah. Ray J's a lot of people's treasure. No, I was going to say Kim was Ray J's trash. Oh, yeah. Okay. Sexy Kim, I just bought him a manners. Let's keep it moving.
Starting point is 01:16:04 That wasn't Ray J, by the way. It was me singing. Oh, is that you? Just so people know, that was not Ray J in the studio. Ray J wasn't even here. Fry doesn't even listen. My number three pick, all the way back in 2005. Year of Our Lord.
Starting point is 01:16:16 Year of Our Lord, 2005. Kanye West was interviewed by Sway. What Up World. What Up World. And in that, Kanye was one of the first rappers to come out in a big way against homophobia. And I'm going to take the
Starting point is 01:16:32 interview when he came out in a big way against homophobia. He was like, it's about fighting for your rights at the beginning, about speaking your mind, and about breaking down barriers, but everybody in hip-hop discriminates against gay people. And then he talks about how he even got pulled into it, but everybody in hip-hop discriminates against gay people. And then he talks about how he even got pulled into it,
Starting point is 01:16:49 but then his cousin came out as gay, and it really made him rethink how homophobic hip-hop was. Right. And I appreciate, I mean, it was cool that he did that. It made me like him a lot more that he did that, and that was early Kanye. And then also just in a selfish way, it fucking bums me out when a hip-hop song is homophobic. You're bumping it in a car.
Starting point is 01:17:11 You know, like with a girl you haven't been dating that long or something like that, and you're like, you love this song. I like how you're bumping music on the third date. You know all the words until it gets to that hornet. And then he's like, whoa, shit. We'll talk at dinner. That's funny. Shit.
Starting point is 01:17:25 And you're like, I don't even really like, whoa. We'll talk at dinner. That's funny. Shit. You know? And you're like, I don't even really like the lyrics. Then you have to lie and be like, I don't really pay attention to the lyrics that much. I just like the beats. I like the beats. I honestly, until now, I didn't even realize what he said. I've never listened to it that loud. I just don't want to talk to you.
Starting point is 01:17:39 So I turned it up super loud. And then she turns to you and she's like, no, I hate gay people too. And you're like, all right, then we people too all right back to buka de beppo okay but doesn't that go back to the the point we were talking about uh recently me and david is um that article that came out recently of like black men are the white men of minorities i saw that black men are the white people of minorities? Yeah. That speaks to that. And Kanye is taking a bullet. I'm glad that he was.
Starting point is 01:18:10 Because that's the silent killer in hip hop. Not silent. But you know what I mean? That is like a major. It's 2017. You can't be like that no more. But people still are, which is crazy. Does that really happen a lot still
Starting point is 01:18:25 before the wrap still Sean what world are you living in a good one are you living in Portland what's going on I just don't I don't think that
Starting point is 01:18:35 I have my ear to the streets as much as I maybe once did I don't think it's still it's still I mean you're not
Starting point is 01:18:42 out there listening to like triple X tentacion you know and like too many Migos deep cuts and stuff like that Oh, it's still. It's still. I mean, you're not out there listening to like XXXTentacion. No. You know, and like too many Migos deep cuts and stuff like that. But Migos got in trouble for being homophobic like this year. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:53 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I didn't know that. I guess I need to pop my bubble. Can I use the bathroom? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:58 You can absolutely go use the bathroom. You're not watching XXXTentacion, Sheriff? I mean, I've. No, I've never even heard of that. I'm sipping tea in your hood. The three of us can just keep talking. We don't have to necessarily edit this out. No, I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:19:11 I've never heard of... Say that, Bandon. I think Marcella's doing great. What about the two of you? I think she's doing great. Yeah. Yeah, it's fantastic. I think that she knew coming in that she was going to take that goddamn pick.
Starting point is 01:19:23 Yeah. Because she saw it in my eyes. People only get that upset every once in a while on this podcast. I've never heard you call a girl a bitch. I've gotten that upset. But you know, it's just like pic. Oh, yeah. It's like, yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:36 I've told you a piece of shit. We have that. So let me tell you a fun anecdote about Marcella and I. Let's hear it. We were doing the meltdown one night. Sure. Shout out to Kumail and Emily. emily really likes me uh kumail's wife i always felt like kumail didn't like me very much but whatever i just i think we're not the same type of person or whatever and me and marcella were in there and we had been arguing all day we just argue a lot it's just like
Starting point is 01:19:59 you know she's like my sister it's just like like like i don't like i'm not like going around calling women of bitches no i didn't of course not that's why if she can call me fat all the time i can call her a bitch it's fine it's fine it's really it's very charming but anyways we were in there and we had been arguing all day and like she said something to me just specifically to piss me off just and it was me marcella and kamil manjiani uh-huh and marcella said something to me specifically to make me mad and it was really shitty and i was like i will fucking kill you you bitch like i just said that because that's how we talk to each other right like at the house it wouldn't be weird well it was only me and marcella and kumail in there and kumail hears me say that
Starting point is 01:20:41 and he's like whoa whoa you can't talk to her You can't talk to her like that. You can't talk to her like that. And instead of being like, and this is how hilarious Marcella is. Instead of being like, oh, no, that's how we talk to each other. When I said that to her, she just looked down and said, okay, I'm sorry. Which is like so funny. But she's a real bitch. That's the thing. She's a total bitch.
Starting point is 01:21:04 But is that not hilarious? That's hilarious. It's so thing. She's a total bitch. But is that not hilarious? That's hilarious. It's so funny. She sold you out. Gangster move. And even at the time, I was mad, but I was like, yeah, but that's so funny. Even as it happened. Don't tell her I was talking good about her.
Starting point is 01:21:17 I was like, fuck that bitch, basically. What happened? You'll have to listen to the podcast to find out. David was singing your praises. He was. Oh, I bet. He always does. Are you talking about that Kumail incident?
Starting point is 01:21:32 Yes! How did you know? That's exactly what he said. He loves telling that story. That's exactly what he said. Because it's a horrifying moment for him. That's hilarious. It was a really like, oh, man.
Starting point is 01:21:42 It was so funny. My biggest worry is that people are going to think I'm a bad guy or find out I'm a bad guy. I don't know the difference between those terms. I don't think this. And that was it right in my face. I don't think there's anyone on earth who thinks you're a bad guy. That's never going to happen. Kumail.
Starting point is 01:21:56 You should really appreciate that. He actually had it. He was so upset. He was like, you can't just say you're going to kill us. And I just sat there like, that's true, David. You can't just say you're going to kill him. And I just sat there like, that's true, David. You can't just say stuff like that. David, it really hurts when you talk to me like that. We live in a society, David.
Starting point is 01:22:15 Marcella, it's time for your third pick. Oh, okay. My third pick. I don't know how to word this, but I guess it would be the first time, the only time Kanye was on Chappelle's show. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. For many reasons.
Starting point is 01:22:35 Two words, right? Two words. Yeah. For many reasons, not just because of two words. It's a great song. The performance was amazing. It was A, his first time on TV. Was that his first time on TV?
Starting point is 01:22:44 Yes. Yeah. It was really fun. It was fun. like it was it was A his first time on TV was that his first time on TV yes it was it was really fun it was fun like he was like really playful during the performance he's always fun to watch
Starting point is 01:22:52 going back to I was going to mention it but I was like I'll save it for my pic during the the runaway performance he's always been fun to watch like I think about
Starting point is 01:23:01 when Snoop did Murder Was The Case on the VMAs it wasn't that fun to watch it was boring they tried their best and the rappers have tried to be fun to watch and they're not Kanye was probably one of the first people that was just like
Starting point is 01:23:14 he's so fun like he his instincts are so on point and he's fun he's playful he likes to do whatever he wants he goes with the flow he dances weird he's got a lot more like David Byrne than like rarely do i say that people actually don't give a fuck he actually doesn't yeah a lot of people say they're like oh i wear what i want i don't care what people think yes you do but he doesn't give a shit yeah and it shows in those performances
Starting point is 01:23:38 because he'll fucking handle it exactly and that was also uh when he the first time he did or the only time he did chapelle show was uh according to chapelle the first time he did, or the only time he did a Chappelle show was according to Chappelle, the first time he met Kanye. God, that's so cool. And he was after or before, I don't know when, but they were showing sketches. They're like hanging out during the edit. Yeah. And they were watching the sketches. And that's the incident, the famous incident of Kanye answering the phone call in the edit
Starting point is 01:24:04 studio in production. And he's like, no, Kanye answering the phone call in the edit studio in production. And he's like, no, man, I can't right now. It's like, why? Because I'm watching the Spell Show sketches. Pause. And it says something. He's like, because my life is dope and I do dope shit. Which is like the best quote.
Starting point is 01:24:20 One of the best quotes. Why do you get to do that? Because my life's dope and I do dope shit. It's the best quote. It's the best quote. I say it to to do that? Because my life's dope and I do dope shit. It's the best quote. It's the best quote. I say it to myself in my head a lot. I say it all the time. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:24:28 Because my life is dope and I do dope shit. That changed my next pick. Oh, wow. Oh, shit. That did. Oh, shit. Good. I can't pick Gold Digger again.
Starting point is 01:24:37 I'm sorry. That's not my turn yet. All right. I'm sorry. I didn't technically pick Gold Digger last time. I'm excited. That was- It's Friday night.
Starting point is 01:24:44 When he said yeah that shit was awesome and it was cool seeing him doing two words what were they on top of a bus yeah it was like overlooking new york or something like that and they were all there i didn't know that was his first time on tv that's crazy god that's tight that's also how dope was chapelle to put like the battery in everybody's pack that this guy Kanye is super cool. Yeah. That's really... Because beginning...
Starting point is 01:25:08 I thought his name was Kane. Yeah. A lot of people did. Yeah. Even some credit card companies. I think I probably transposed that YNN. What? Oh, I thought it was Kane West.
Starting point is 01:25:18 Because I'd see ads for him in the source, but it would just be about new producer. He never... Yeah. And even when he first got on Rockefeller, it was like, this is the guy who made the blueprint. So you don't... It's not just Blaze. It's not like a name you're super... Kanye. He's the only Kanye I've ever heard of.
Starting point is 01:25:33 It's not like Kane is in the building or anything like that. Ooh. I hate that. It's haters in the building. Also, the song I'm talking about is The Food. Oh, The Food? Didn't they do two words on... Was that first? Did they not do the words on Chappelle, The Food? Didn't they do two words on- Was that first? On Chappelle's Show too?
Starting point is 01:25:47 Did they not do two words on Chappelle's Show? I swear they did. They did do The Food. That's right. I thought it was two words. Wait. They did on Chappelle's Show. I swear to God they did two words on Chappelle's Show.
Starting point is 01:25:57 The Food was in the kitchen. I remember that. And a hush fell over the crowd. I think they did. He must have been on Chappelle's Show twice. Yeah. Was he the only person that was ever on there twice
Starting point is 01:26:05 well we don't need to dive into all that probably Murphy was on it a bunch yeah RIP comedy get down maybe they did two of them but yeah
Starting point is 01:26:14 but that's awesome fantastic that means it is Sean Jordan time for your third and fourth picks well it was going to be something different but now my third pick
Starting point is 01:26:22 is going to be Hell of a Life just the song Hell of a Life because I still listen to that when I get to do fun stand-up. And I'll go outside, and I'll chill, and I'll listen to that song and think about how dope it is. Pussy of religion is all I need. Yeah, then we get to do dope shit. Except for when he breathes.
Starting point is 01:26:41 I was going to say this earlier, but I figured I might pick it. When he breathes at the end of the song for like three minutes, I go ahead and skip that. That's one of those endings that I'll, because it's just like. I play that part on repeat. That's what I play during my set with my earphones. Fuck you, David Borey. Fuck you, fuck your mom.
Starting point is 01:27:02 Fuck Death Row. Fuck David Borey as a staffer, staffer record label and his motherfucking crew. Chino XL, fuck David too. David, don't you have sickle cell or something? Oh, what a good day, man. That's so fun. Marcelo, maybe if you get a man, the two of you can fuck with the lights on. Fuck with the lights on.
Starting point is 01:27:30 That's a line where I was like, easy. What about dimmed? Yeah. Fuck with the lights on. You gotta fuck with the lights on. I do sometimes. I'm never thrilled about it. It's a visual medium.
Starting point is 01:27:42 I fuck with the daytime on. It's a visual medium. So if it's daytime, then the lights. Yeah, that's its own. But I don't make it a point to turn the lights on at night. Anyway. During the daytime, do you grab your baby? Do you hold her tight?
Starting point is 01:27:55 Don't do that. Do you want a little laugh? Don't do that. I'm actually just guessing because I'm not married yet. So I'm not exactly sure how this whole sex thing is going to go. I think it's going to go pretty well. Sky rockets in flight. I'll draw you a picture when it's time. Will you draw's going to go pretty well. I'll draw you a picture.
Starting point is 01:28:05 Will you draw me a graphic picture? I got some stuff. Can we listen to Silk, Freak Me Baby that I was singing earlier? Yeah. They played that on the radio. One of the lyrics was, let me lick you up and down. Yeah, you can say that. You just can't say Bieber. Also, I was listening to Good Day on the way here and they can say dug out
Starting point is 01:28:21 on the radio now. Yeah. Didn't know they could always say that. They can say dug out. Anyway, that's just where a baseball team sits. You know what's funny? Actually, and this is not a pic,
Starting point is 01:28:29 but this is just a point to what we're talking about because I always find it funny when people censor rap songs because they never know what to censor. Well, yeah. They blow it so much.
Starting point is 01:28:36 Kanye had this song, I forget what it was. Sometimes love comes around and knocks you down. Oh, yeah. Perry Hilson. Oh, yeah. Real bad.
Starting point is 01:28:45 Michael Jackson. So there's a line in there that they bleep out on his, but he's not saying anything bad, but they're so stupid. They don't know. Which line? I fucking, I don't even know. I'm trying. Now I'm trying.
Starting point is 01:28:55 When Chappelle was talking about the Ying Yang Twins and how they could say skeet on the radio because nobody knew what it was. Exactly. And the same thing with Truffle Butter. That song was all over the radio. Oof, that was crazy. We don't need to dive in. That was a wild time.
Starting point is 01:29:06 Yeah, I remember that. Speaking of Kanye, there is a part in his rap where they bleep it out, and it doesn't need to be bleeped out because he's not saying anything vulgar. It's so funny. That happens with a lot of songs. I know. It does happen with a lot of rap, but it's just so funny. And they just assume it's bad?
Starting point is 01:29:20 Yeah. Because sometimes it sounds bad, and it's not. I have the lyrics, but it doesn't say which. Yeah, I know. All right, but what's your fourth pick, Sean? Oh, yeah. Chantel Jordan?
Starting point is 01:29:28 All right, my fourth pick is, it's going to be another introduction pick but I'm going to pick that Kanye introduced me to Nicki Minaj. I'd never heard of her.
Starting point is 01:29:39 Boo! Monster was when you found out about Nicki Minaj? Yeah, I'd never heard of her. What about that Massive Attack song? Massive Attack. No, it was Monster. That was when I heard of Nicki Minaj? Yeah, never heard of her. What about that Massive Attack song? Massive Attack.
Starting point is 01:29:45 Nope, it was Monster. That was when I heard of Nicki Minaj. I think America found out about Nicki Minaj on that song. I mean, it was you. I had been charting young money from the get. Huh? Not a big deal. Well, you're an explorer.
Starting point is 01:29:58 You're out there on the front of a ship. You got a telescope out. You're looking for new horizons. I'm in the bird's nest. Yeah. Crow's nest? Crow's nest. Yeah, I'm up there.
Starting point is 01:30:05 It's your nest. You get to decide what kind of bird it is, baby. Yeah, you're just chilling up there. What do you do? I'm up there in the peacock's nest. Yeah, just hanging out, holding a branch. Yeah, plumage blasting. Plumage.
Starting point is 01:30:13 Are you fronting? You trying to get a female? No, no, no. I just got it like that. Plumagio. Are you? Plumagio? Introducing you to Nicki Minaj.
Starting point is 01:30:22 Yeah, and it was in your car on the way to um some shitty show in uh longmont i think or not longmont longview oh longview oh yeah yeah we did all them all the whole all the meth heads were in the crowd did that introduce you to bonnie there as well uh no i don't think so i think or bon ivers we called him back then scooch the douche was uh talking about him back when we like years ago years and years ago but yeah that was the scooch man that was the first time i heard nicki minaj in that verse fucking dope you don't like it marcel you don't like that that's how i found out about her you don't like that people always say it's the best verse and i don't agree with that best verse on that song or best nicki minaj in that song oh who i didn't say that i said i oh i know but i'm saying i don't i just think it's
Starting point is 01:31:04 it's whatever. Well, I got some pretty hard boos. You're just going to get a boo when you say Nicki Minaj for me. Do you not like Nicki Minaj? I don't know why. No, she took her whole shit from Kim. I don't know why. Black Barbie was already a thing.
Starting point is 01:31:15 It's like not a cool Kim because there's no personality. Nicki's got like a dead face. She's also openly admitted that she's an actress who raps. Yeah. She has said that. She went to art school to be an actress and then she fell into rap which i do not like and um and then she um god damn it she doesn't write her shit she's a little bit like tupac then she had that fire verse and monster i don't think it was a fire verse i think she rambled and went on and on i think that it wasn't
Starting point is 01:31:44 that interesting i understand i think that... It wasn't that interesting. I understand. I think that the way she wrote the beat was cool. That's why people liked it so much. I have to get Sean's back. I think it's a good... I love it. I enjoy it. I think it's fantastic.
Starting point is 01:31:53 I don't know that much about... You know, I listen to a lot of rap. I liked it. I found it... It's enjoyable. I listen to almost no Nicki Minaj. I listen to Bees in the Trap a lot. You know, a lot of gay men love that song.
Starting point is 01:32:06 Do they? Yeah, every time I go to a gay club, they love that song. Is the beat that good? I guess I haven't heard it in a while. I don't even know. So I've gotten used to listening to it because gay men love that song. Have you talked with Eliza Skinner about Nicki Minaj? Because I think she loves Nicki Minaj.
Starting point is 01:32:18 Of course Eliza Skinner loves Nicki Minaj. What about that Stupid Ho song? She loves Nicki Minaj. That's a fucking good one. Which one? That Stupid Ho song? You a stupid ho. You's a stupid ho. Yeah. You's a stupid ho. Listen, there's a reason she That's a fucking good one. Which one? That Stupid Ho song? You a stupid ho. Use a stupid ho.
Starting point is 01:32:26 Yeah. Use a stupid ho. Listen, there's a reason she's never gotten to number one. Cardi B has. Cardi B has. Bodak Yellow. Name of the song. Nikki doesn't write from the heart because she doesn't really write her shit.
Starting point is 01:32:38 She has a lot of ghost writers. I have friends who are like, Nikki's looking for some shit. And conversations happen in front of me. I'm like, oh, this is so gross. I've ghost written. David Boyd wrote the monster verse. I wrote the monster verse. I believe it. That's why it wasn't good. I wrote a verse on bedrock.
Starting point is 01:32:55 Was he on your sideburns? That was me. That was you? That was my idea. The name of your album when it comes out is going to be Plumage. No, my album's not coming out. I'm just going to... I like to play in the back. it to the grave he's just the dream dude he's behind the scenes but back to sean's point it did expose her to a lot of people and i'd support that it did it did break nick and that's a cool thing for him to do at the time just put on a new he does he puts a lot of new people on a lot of it's a lot of cool
Starting point is 01:33:19 he has a good like he puts a lot of people on who go on to have a lot of success. Yeah, like Cy High the Prince. Regardless of what you think of him. What have I said? Cy High the Prince. That was my introduction to him. Household name. Yeah. Household name, Cy High the Prince.
Starting point is 01:33:34 It's my mom's favorite rapper. Cy High the Prince. Is it really? No. Okay. Oh, yeah. I don't know. I don't know what your mom is like.
Starting point is 01:33:39 I don't know. Real sick with me. Your mom was like, really into good music, like deep cuts. Cy High the Prince wasn't terrible on other tracks. He must have been a jerk or something. There was nobody out there who was bad. They were all pretty good. Hey, we know a lot of comedians who are talented,
Starting point is 01:33:53 but don't know shit about anything else. That's true. Shout out to David Borey. Yeah. I wasn't going to say it. Introduce a little Nicki Minaj, yeah. Yep, and Jay-Z, that was the first time I heard of Jay-Z. Whoa.
Starting point is 01:34:07 I got like, my breath went away. You believed it, you idiot. David got so mad for a second. I didn't even know how I was reacting. I didn't know how I was feeling. I've never felt that way before. David's proud of demon wings. I immediately got the joke, Sean.
Starting point is 01:34:19 I want you to know that right now. Play it back. Marcella, it's time for your fourth pick. Oh my God, my fourth pick? Mm- right. Play it back. Marcella, it's time for your fourth pick. Oh, my God. My fourth pick? Mm-hmm. Ooh, boy. That was Cameron, actually.
Starting point is 01:34:32 What about Cameron? Ooh, boy. It was a joke. Didn't land. They don't all land. Bye. It was a callback to one of the last podcasts. 100% of the shots you don't take.
Starting point is 01:34:39 Yeah, but I said, ooh, boy. I didn't say, oh, boy. I know. That's why I didn't land. I was working out a little bit. Is that what you call that? You know, I try. Okay. I have my fourth oh boy. I know. That's why I didn't land. I was working out a little bit. Is that what you call that? I try. You know, I try.
Starting point is 01:34:46 Okay. I have my fourth pick. There we go. It's going to be College Dropout. Not the album, the act. Because of Kanye West, I dropped out of college. Whoa. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:58 Yeah. Big guns. That's awesome. More fire. I want more fire. I wanted to. What? I did it. He inspired me. Oh, wow. You wanted to. I did it.
Starting point is 01:35:06 He inspired me. You were like, fuck it? I said, I don't know what the fuck I want to do. I'm fucking talented. I don't give a fuck. I'm dropping out like Kanye. 10 at midnight wins later. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:35:16 Fast forward. That was when I was 21. Fast forward to 33. I'm writing on Bill Nye. I get into some internet controversy because of some wild shit I said. That was awesome. right wing internet trolls fucking I mean they I was on Tucker Carlson I was on Breitbart I was on
Starting point is 01:35:32 Milo Yiannopoulos it was crazy like death threats insults whatever but my favorite thing a guy said my favorite thing I said back because this guy was like they went on my Wikipedia page they were like reading about me just being crazy talking to me one guy said oh of course because they all hate Bill nye because he's a scientist he's a smart person he's a smart person knows what's going on yeah they were like of course bill nye would hire
Starting point is 01:35:56 a california state university uh graduate to to write on his show and i you know like retweet it but like quoted him and i like, how dare you reduce me as a California State graduate when I'm a California State dropout? And it was that moment where I was like, it's because of Kanye I can talk shit like this
Starting point is 01:36:15 and be proud of it because Kanye made it like, you could be proud of fucking dropping out and fucking pursuing your dreams. Well, it was, it was cool because it was like, not,
Starting point is 01:36:27 not everybody's made out for it. You can be the smartest motherfucker. Cause Kanye is ahead of his time. He's a genius. We can all agree with that, but he's not cut out for this like white supremacist ideology of, of formal education. So why the fuck would he?
Starting point is 01:36:40 That's why I left too, bro. Verbatim. That's exactly what I told him. So for me, it's one of those things where I'm like, yeah, I'm going to drop out too. Fuck it. I'm going to follow my dreams. I'm talented too. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:51 It works out. Yeah. When the fucking, when like the ladder only goes so high anyway, what's the point in climbing it? Exactly. Yeah. Ooh. Yeah. It's great.
Starting point is 01:37:00 As a white man, the ladder goes all the way to the roof for me. I dropped out of the University of South Dakota because I'm lazy. I would do so that it's a little shaky in certain parts of it, but then up towards the top, real solid. It's just stairs, honestly, at the top. I'm not even climbing.
Starting point is 01:37:16 It's not even a ladder anymore. It's just an escalator. It's just an escalator. Like an elevator with a bed in it. Yeah, it's like a splash mountain without the fall. Oh, wow. It's just a pleasant ride through a sort of
Starting point is 01:37:28 a racist situation. So we go back down? No. No. You're here. Bubba love. No, Bubba love. I'll be staying up here.
Starting point is 01:37:33 I trust there's some sort of spreaded out meat situation where I can maybe make a cold cut sandwich. Some charcuterie. A charcuterie board. That's great. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:44 He was that's another thing that made him so relatable to like people like A charcuterie board. That's great. That's another thing that made him so relatable to people. Of this generation. You could listen to that and be like, yeah, college is kind of bullshit. I recognize how lucky I am to have been able to get a job to pay it off, but so many of my friends are going to be burdened forever with student loan debt. It's almost like they're new slaves. Wow. I'm pretty deep, guys.
Starting point is 01:38:09 I did go to college for a year. I learned to be deep. No, it shows, David. I learned to be deep and then I left. They don't let you buy those pants unless you can show them
Starting point is 01:38:16 one year transcript. But where? University of Oklahoma? State? Northwestern. Oklahoma State. Northwestern. Did you go to play football?
Starting point is 01:38:23 Yeah. That sounds like a football school. Yeah, that's not where. I didn't go to read better. Read the offense. Yeah, yeah, yeah. College dropout, the act of dropping out of college. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:38 What was that? He's got that one line like some. My freshman year I was going through hella problems till I got up the nerve to drop my ass out of college that song is so good
Starting point is 01:38:50 yeah I love that I love always got something to say like an okay player hater yeah I love that song but that's quality okay cool
Starting point is 01:38:58 great pick it's time for my fourth pick and what's my fourth pick I have to take my favorite Kanye song. I know we've taken...
Starting point is 01:39:06 No, you go. Do it. It was going to be my pick, I bet. Do you, boo-boo. It was going to be my last pick. Really? Gone by Kanye West. Oh, never mind.
Starting point is 01:39:13 Oh, that's such a good song. That's a good song, man. It's my favorite Kanye song by far. It's amazing. It's Kanye Cameron's on it. And Cameron's verse is amazing. Knock, knock, who's there kill a camp kill a who kill a camp hustler grinder gorilla troop it's one of those songs that makes me like
Starting point is 01:39:31 makes me walk like i'm listening to it yeah i walk where i'm just like yeah i know what fucking time it is i fucking love that song the strings in it are amazing kanye west got he hired an orchestra to do those strings so Oh, it's so good. That's not a sample or anything like that. He just wanted these soaring strings in the song. It's fucking amazing. And it's a little bit of come up in it, too. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:55 It's just, I don't have a ton to say about it. It's a great song. Such an amazing song. It's such an amazing song. You show me a diamond, you don't need to explain to me what it is. You see what's going on there. It's like, listen, give it to me before I take it. As long as it's not a conflict diamond, Jacob.
Starting point is 01:40:07 Don't lie to me, man. I'm sprinkling all sorts of little Kanye quotes throughout this podcast. I love that. Just little Easter eggs for the real heads. Yeah. So just in the interest of time and the fact that I have a dinner reservation at 845,
Starting point is 01:40:24 let's keep it moving. Oh, sure. I didn't know that. Oh, no, we're fine. We're cruising. David, it's time for your fourth and then your final pick. So my fourth pick, I wanted to do not one of his songs, but one of his guest verses. Oh, hell yeah. Because he's killed it on so many guest verses. Sure. And I was caught up between two in this one. There's one that I think everybody's heard, and then there's one not everybody's heard
Starting point is 01:40:46 that is my favorite. I picked my favorite. Be true. It's from Chameleon Air. Before he got a deal, he put out a double or triple album, I'm not sure, called The Mixtape Messiah. And he had a song with Kanye West, who I didn't know who he was at that time, and it was called Call Some Hoes.
Starting point is 01:41:04 And Kanye's verse starts, and he says, if my man Benzino got a Benz, then they call him Benzino. If I get my Bentley, they gonna call me Bentlino. And I was like, who is this guy? And then he says, so glad I ain't take the job at Home Depot. From the track star, I got 800 C notes. And then he says, oh, sometimes I want to say fuck my chick but i don't want anybody to fuck my chick and i was like this guy's pretty cool yeah and i was like and i was like before
Starting point is 01:41:31 he was like on because nobody was letting him rap for real right like he had to go to chameleon air who wasn't who was regionally famous like i got real into texas rap in high school because i thought i was cool yeah and like you were cool a wave. Yeah. He was regionally famous. But Kanye was just like coming on like, hey, I could spit. Let like everybody know. He did a bunch of songs. So yeah, Call Some Hose, Mixtape Messiah. Kanye's verse was really, really.
Starting point is 01:41:55 It was just like so much. There was so much personality in it. He wanted to be a rapper so bad. And he did it. And he did it. And he did it. So yeah, I really love that and that so that's my fault there's not really much to say about it it's just a verse i really like i mean it's it's
Starting point is 01:42:10 also an example of of him using his sense of humor on rap because i think a lot of times rappers they think they have to follow a formula with rap it has to be like this it has to be like that sure but kanye was always from the beginning as a rapper whether people were ghostwriting for him or not he was always gravitating towards this obscure humor that i mean like the the benzino yeah um bentlino yeah it's just funny such a funny clever thing that doesn't actually make sense but it makes sense if you have a fucking sense of humor right yeah and it's on a song called call some hoes so everybody the rest of the song is definitely a song called call some hoes right right exactly he was like this yeah exactly what you think it was gonna be you know
Starting point is 01:42:53 that you know that and it's like good or bad whatever you think about it just is what that song is and he was able to come in on like i mean that's like doing that's like doing a stand-up set to somebody who's completely not your audience. Yeah. Because that was like- Exactly. It was like people who drank syrup in Houston listened to that. And nobody was listening to that. Even going on that song and saying, sometimes I want to say fuck my bitch. So two parts of that, saying sometimes I want to say that, which means he doesn't really mean it.
Starting point is 01:43:19 Nope. But also, but I don't want anyone to fuck my bitch, implying that he cares about her enough. Yeah. He flipped it. And that's Kanye. Yeah, that's not what you would expect on a song called call some hoes yeah that shows that part was like a little insecurity yeah always a romantic at home and that's why he's so great too is like i like i think that i'm a very flawed person who makes a lot of mistakes and there was not a lot of room for that personality within rap music until kanye right rappers were never like i fuck up like that was never like that was never the thing and kanye
Starting point is 01:43:49 was like i fucking i can't pay my bills sometimes he said i'm insecure and always yeah yeah and he said i'm telling you i am and it was like that was like that was one of the another thing that really has always endeared me to him that he's just like yeah i fuck up i don't even know what i'm doing sometimes that whole wave i mean it mean, it gave us, it changed rap forever. I think it changed everything. I agree. It changed everything. I think we don't have Kid Cudi and shit like that,
Starting point is 01:44:13 but we also don't have like. You don't have Drake without 808s. You don't have Drake. You don't have like Future. You don't have a lane for that. There's no lane for it without Kanye. There's no lane for it without Kanye. There's no lane for it. He did it all.
Starting point is 01:44:26 Even just the idea of an insecure rock star is interesting. I loved it. Who do we have? We have Kurt Cobain. But Led Zeppelin wasn't out there. Yeah, but that's expected with a lot of white entertainers. Oh, for sure. They're allowed to indulge.
Starting point is 01:44:42 Even amongst white entertainers, there aren't that many. Right, but black masculinity is unmasked. It was the first crack in the armor in that. It was unmasked. First rapper I ever really related to. So I love that. So I'm going to say that verse. And then to round it out, I am going to have to say, you know what?
Starting point is 01:45:03 I came in with a video and a song. I? I came in with a video and a song. I'm gonna close with a video and a song. I'm gonna close with Can't Tell Me Nothin'. Oh, yeah. Just because, like, yeah, that song, too, is, like, just that idea of, like, that's him. Like, he's a, like, that feeling is so. That's universal. It's, like, especially if you're, like, kind of, like, a broke person.
Starting point is 01:45:22 It's, like, oh, man, I'm playing catch up. I can't handle nothing. But, like, when I get my shit it's like, oh, man, I'm playing catch up. I can't handle nothing. But when I get my shit together, like, oh, man, she's going to come back. You know what I mean? I'm going to start eating good. I don't have to be nice to you anymore. I don't have to be nice to you anymore. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:45:34 I'm never going to fucking talk to these agents. Fuck you. Yeah, like, I'm only in here. Yeah, like, I'm only here because my shit's not like, wait till I get it right. Like, that's just like, yeah, that shit was like, that was just a really good, that whole song I really love. Now, which video are we talking about? Are we talking about the one with Zach Galifianakis and Will Oldham?
Starting point is 01:45:50 I mean, that one is also funny, but I'm talking about, I'm talking about Kanye alone in the desert. No video looked like that before that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No video. And even like, he was, he had that scarf on, he wasn't looking at the camera, and I still watched the shit out of it all the time. I like the Galifianakis one better.
Starting point is 01:46:08 That's because you're a comedic writer. I don't know if, is this true that Kanye co-signed that? I bet he's fully on board with it. I could see him. Because that's dope. I bet he did. He's a human. I bet he did.
Starting point is 01:46:21 I think he was on board. He loves comedians. Right. It's Bonnie Prince-Billy, or it's not Bonnie Prince-Billy. Will Oldham, what was his other fucking loves comedians it's Bonnie Prince Billy Will Oldham what was his other fucking name maybe it was Bonnie Prince Billy and Zach Galifianakis just like doing weird like American
Starting point is 01:46:34 gothic shit if you're funny if you have any sense of humor if Zach Galifianakis brings that to you and you have any sense of humor you have to be like yeah do that I'm sure he was like zach bring me something you think you think he went to zach i don't know if zach i don't know what zach i don't know i don't see why he wouldn't but i could also see zach alphanackis being a big
Starting point is 01:46:54 fan of course so i mean it goes i don't know i'm just telling you i mean i love zach in that fiona apple video too and i assume that's his idea i don't know what you're talking about oh well fiona apple one of kanye's favorite artists she's that's true yeah is he gonna whack yeah great yeah like top five or something he said that's awesome yeah see i found out this isn't my pick but i'm gonna make my pick in a second but i found out kanye west route mike conley the uh point guard for the memphis grizzlies by the way never really good basketball player. Never made an all-star team. You know, like, but good. And Kanye West called him in the middle
Starting point is 01:47:30 of the night last year and was like, I'm a big fan of your game. You're just up on me watching videos. I mean, why isn't that your pick? That's so funny. That is awesome, but it's just like, but he's like not even, it's not Kyrie Irving, it's not even Damian Lillard. Of your game. Of your game.
Starting point is 01:47:45 And Mike Conley, he plays a real specific kind of grind it out sort of basketball. Just amazing. All right. It is time for my final pick. All right. That's it. I'm sort of mad at myself for not picking this earlier, but it is Kanye West live. And I don't know if I need to narrow it down.
Starting point is 01:48:04 No, I don't think you do. Kanye West is such a good live performer. So fucking good. We went to the Pablo tour together in Las Vegas. I went two other times after that. I went to two of the LA shows at the Forum. He's so fucking good. He's so good live.
Starting point is 01:48:23 He puts a lot of thought into it. I didn't go, but my buddy Nick Nampe went to the Yeezus tour and there was like a gigantic metal pyramid that like he performed the entire time.
Starting point is 01:48:32 Yeah, I heard about that. And it was designed by like an actual like architect. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he wore like some crazy mask like when he would perform. And then on the Pablo tour,
Starting point is 01:48:43 he would travel around on this piece of metal scaffolding that just went around so there were no bad seats in the house. Oh, because he's true. Because it just moved throughout the- Because he cares about everybody. He cares about everybody. It moves throughout the building. So he's standing up on top of it.
Starting point is 01:49:01 He's like 15 feet above you. And there was a point when I made eye contact with Kanye West. He was like 15 feet away from everybody at one point. He was so close. That's pretty dope. And while that was happening, there was this crazy light show. During ultralight beam, there was a white light that went up right to the ceiling. And then for a lot of the rest of it, there was this...
Starting point is 01:49:22 I'll show you pictures. This crazy red light laser beam show that was going on. It was amazing. No opener. No opener. Just Kanye. No opener for the, no opener. Started pretty much on time.
Starting point is 01:49:35 Who can open for Kanye these days? Started pretty much on time. Oh, it was perfect. Kanye fans are nice people. Yeah. Like at the concert, you know, it's like. I mean, everybody would be so happy to be there they were so happy to be there i feel like las llegas is gonna be i think it is how
Starting point is 01:49:49 super happy to be con yegas was but like because we were on the floor and like no you were worried that we were gonna get like fucked up on the floor i'm old man i don't want to get mobbed on like i don't want i don't want kids pushing me and shit i want to tell you everybody's sneakers were too nice to get into a scuffle. Nobody's going to do that. $600 t-shirts and $1,000 kicks. Yeah. Everyone's giving me my space.
Starting point is 01:50:11 And they were. And they were very respectful. It was sick. Yeah. I was on Molly for that. Wow. For the Vegas one. It was amazing.
Starting point is 01:50:20 Yeah, it was great. I always thought for sure Kanye would name his daughter Molly. That would have been amazing. I think Kim might have a little too much say in that. Yeah. In the naming of those children. Yeah, she does. North, Saint. Oh, that's very Kanye.
Starting point is 01:50:33 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Saint is very Kanye. North probably, too. Anyway, live Kanye has to be experienced. If he goes back on tour ever again, especially while he's in the pocket like this, you have to go see him. Yeah. Have to, I'm imploring any listener who likes rap.
Starting point is 01:50:49 It was great. Uh, Marcella, it's time for your final pick. My final pick. I'm going to, I'm going to be deep and I'm going to pick Donda West. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 01:50:57 Because without her, we wouldn't have this brilliant mind. She was an educator. She was socially and politically conscious and she influenced him a lot um also the donda west law yeah exactly i mean she was amazing and um but i my what's funny to me about donda west is um she died from cosmetic surgery yeah that's that he paid for so he felt very guilty yeah um but fast forward um to kim and kanye and i'm convinced that he paid for, so he felt very guilty. But fast forward to Kim and Kanye, and I'm convinced that he now lets Kim
Starting point is 01:51:29 get as much plastic surgery as she wants so that she could, he's sabotaging her. He wants her to die. Oh, damn. That's my take. You're dropping that on the fifth pick? That's my take. That's my hot take on-
Starting point is 01:51:42 That's buck. That's crazy He doesn't seem happy right now No I don't know if he's happy in whatever Of course not He lost all his friends Yeah
Starting point is 01:51:50 Jay doesn't wanna like He lost his amazing woman in his life Beyonce Beyonce Damn that's buck Beyonce Oh yeah But

Starting point is 01:52:18 Or as I refer to him as Beyonce's husband. You know, we blessed. You know, we blessed. You know, Kanye is so amazing. He's a blessing. And it's amazing what he has done.
Starting point is 01:52:36 And I'm amazing too. Thank you so much. It's perfect. That actually was Beyonce. That was Beyonce. It is in the studio. And you know, we have a sterling track record of telling you. We're honest. It was not here.
Starting point is 01:52:50 That was Beyonce. Telling you, she was here. That was my favorite impression. Thanks, but yeah, Donda West is my number five. Yeah. Because she gave us Kanye. My mom was a Kanye hater. Because a lot of people

Marcella, you went third and took Last Call from College Dropout. Amber Rose, when Kanye
Starting point is 01:57:32 was on Chappelle's show, College Dropout and then Dawn to West. Sean, you went last and you took the line, What You Think I Rap For to Push a Fucking Rap For. Introducing people to Jamie, introducing you, at least, to Jamie Foxx's singing career. The song Hell of a life from beautiful dark twisted fantasy uh you took how he introduced the world to nikki minaj onika and then you took uh famously picked by ian carmel in the music video
Starting point is 01:57:57 draft good morning the song and the video you You know what I saw recently? Zach tweeted something that was really nice. He forever associates that song with the first day he moved in and lived with us, which is really nice to me because we must have been blasting it from the Sonos there. Yeah. Which, sponsor of Sonos, I have personal experience with you. Please. I know every Sean memory that he has is associated with you.

Starting point is 01:58:44 No, my mom. Yeah, so we left some good stuff on the board. I mean, we left George Bush Doesn't Care About Black People. Tons of stuff. We left a lot of hits out. By the way, he was right about Beyonce's video. That video was way better than Taylor Swift's video. And also, that
Starting point is 01:58:59 whole thing, she won video of the year. Yeah. That's what I mean, it didn't make any sense. It didn't make any sense. It didn't make any sense. Yeah, because she won video of the year. Yeah. That's what, I mean, it didn't make any sense. It didn't make any sense. It didn't make any sense. Yeah, because she won video of the year, and then that won for best female pop song. Female video or something. And then Beyonce brought Taylor out during her video of the year award.
Starting point is 01:59:17 That's right. She was so gracious and sweet, even though she shouldn't have fucking done that, because Taylor has turned out to be a fucking cunt. Who won't go on the record about Trump or anything like that? And being shady about Kanye himself. Oh yeah, we heard the tapes. We heard the tapes, bitch! Receipts. The one last thing I wanted to
Starting point is 01:59:34 pick and we'll move on was how he had all those different names for the life of Pablo. I just loved that. It was called So Help Me God and then Swish and then Waves. I just love that. That and his Twitter account. Waves thing is rough for me because I really like Max B. I know.
Starting point is 01:59:48 But he switched. He jumped off that wave. Yeah, I wanted to talk about Kanye likening Kim's nude selfies to a Renaissance painting. Amazing. I was like, that's crazy, but I want that kind of love. He's also not that crazy. No, no, no. That's fine.
Starting point is 02:00:05 She is a Rubenesque woman. Ruben himself was a painter. And then the other last thing I really liked was his tweets. Specifically, you ever fall asleep on a plane and you wake up and there's a bottle next to you? Now I've got to take care of this water bottle? That's relatable. Can I do an extra shout out? Yeah. So I was writing for bill nye this summer the science and
Starting point is 02:00:28 um i i can't say what episode but i and it's not you so that's why i can say this i pitched kanye lyric to bill nye you know because he doesn't know anything about kanye and i have a picture in in bill's handwriting because he was dissecting the lyric, I'm living in the future so that presence is my past, my presence is a present, kiss my ass. Bill was dissecting that for a while, and we were going to use it in an episode. We didn't end up using it.
Starting point is 02:00:56 That would have been awesome. I have a picture, though, of it in his handwriting. Really? Yeah, and I love it. That is a treasure. God, that's cool. Yeah, worlds collide. It was dope. And you can find out more about that
