What's going on on, internet, analytic here, aka Dreams, and I'd like to welcome you to mine, which are called the notorious mass effect podcast, and I am your gaming and music news source diving deep. Pulse. You guys. Into both industries with data-driven analysis to give you a clearer understanding of both cultures. Now, that being said, of course, the notorious Master Fex effect episode 153, has a plethora of topics but as you can see right here it is titled is hollow night silk song the best game of 2025 shepherd just look at the state of gaming like what is going on some of the other

things that's going on is of course we're diving into cardi as you can see right here and we're talking about the state of hip-hop as you already know but then you know what i'm saying i was like Like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? Onika Tanya Mirage herself has something to say about Cardi B's week as far as her success, as far as her selling $205,000 first week or let the barbs tell it, maybe a little fraudulent. I know that ain't who I think it is. All right, let me stop being messy.

But that's the last topic we're going to get into for the episode. But of course, we're starting with Carding in general as far as her music. and then we're going to dive into Drake and what he's been doing as far as the Iceman rollout as it's been some very interesting leaks as far as Central Sea as far as Kodak and also going to be getting into

Kaistan, that's reaction of Iceman. We got into that as well as when I was covering the Iceman episode three interestingly enough, we haven't seen another Iceman episode since then. I wonder why. So anyways, then we dive in the Young Thug as you already know.

The War of Atlanta bled over into September as we talked about that even more he dropped his album um what was it ooey scooey or something like that I don't know what in the world he'd be talking about his albums it's almost like he hits chat by GPT and he says give me the worst album title ever and he uses it so anyways uh yeah uh you Y Scootie whatever that means and then of course we talk about bad bunny and him being accepted to get into the Super Bowl as far as industry news we talk about Nintendo securing their patent Navidia

buying shares into Open AI we're going to get into Hollow Night Borderlands, Blockbuster, Limba's company Safe to Say we got a lot in store for episode 153 So with that being stated We got it in with a little drama

You know funny enough You take the R and the last A and you replace that last A with E safe to say you have dame and cameron going at it again you guys see that's the problem sad day in history because we have beefs galore for the end of the episode dame dash versus cameron young thug versus wife and lucci or lack of which lack of you're gonna see and of course we end with the one and only onika tanya mirage and carty b as they went back and forth as nicky minage came out basically said her numbers are fraudulent.

I guess the world may never know. As Cardi B putting up 205 first week, I mean, Nikki, safe to say when it comes to Nikki, she obviously had the bigger first week sales not too long ago with Pink Friday 2. Let me see, first

week sales. So Pink Friday 2 had a bigger output and engagement as far as its specific first week as Pink Friday 2 sold a whopping $228,000 first week.

And, you know, looking at that and just looking at the 205 number by Cardi, I'm not going to say it's the biggest difference, but it definitely showcases how Nikki is still the queen of rap. I'm not going to let you know. I'm not going to let you know. I'm not going to pick any size, and I'm not going to pander

towards any audience. I'm just objectively laying it out how it is. So as far as episode 153, I did have another announcement. As ladies and gentlemen, a certain someone was invited out to a certain event right

and I'm not going to tell you what that event is right because you know I like to keep surprises a surprise but as far as the specific event you know analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio because I'm not saying I put it up or anything

but I was just wanting y'all to see something and this specific event that was invited to was a crazy opportunity because I was just thinking to myself, I need to enjoy the fruits of my labor because y'all have been going crazy as far as the support. I mean, insanity. Drop a bomb for y'all.

So when it comes to that, I've already been planning on just taking a specific, not like a hiatus because I'm always working. But when it comes to work, it's safe to say that the two blended together as I was definitely wanted to see more of the world and also this opportunity came up. So the reason why being vague about it is because we will be having an entire blog as far as in that specific location.

And it's going to be other things added to the vlog that I think y'all will enjoy. Let's just say I'm a huge superhero fan. And for this opportunity to come around, especially at this moment of time where the podcast is doing phenomenal. I mean, y'all have been supporting and just day after day, week after week, month after month, just engagement galore. and increasing every single month. So I appreciate y'all. So this is also going to be a work trip, but also I'm going to enjoy myself a little bit.

But yeah, so this specific event is crazy as far as the opportunity. And of course, I'm going to blog it so y'all can see the experience. And with that being said, it was another thing I was going to get to. As far as analytical interactions, I know I need some type of,

I need like a boo soundtrack or some or a rotten tomato soundtrack because guess what? When it comes to analytic, interactions or analytical interactions, I may have to retire that segment because it's been too much to keep up with. And at my pace as far as what I record, as far as covering the entire gaming and music industry, the people who specifically comment on my social media and my podcast channel, because now it's even grown, even my video podcast channel and starting to get a lot

of different comments. So now, whenever I respond to y'all directly, just consider that analytical interactions as far as the segment because at this point in time we will be here for a whole two to three hours just breaking down each and every platform as far as the comments because that's why you know to be transparent that's the reason i did it to to encourage more people to comment because of the you know really nice interactions that we have as far as the gaming and music industry it's really great conversations back and forth and one of them i read off right now one of them um was talking about the game we're about to get into so on my youtube so even my my shorts on my YouTube, which even that I didn't even think people would comment that much,

but even somebody on that commented on my Ghost of Yote clip. And he said, Ubisoft stole the whole flow, not the other way around. That game was garbage compared to Ghost of Sashima slash Yote. And then I responded by saying, yeah, that was the joke. So, I mean, obviously you don't get it out of context in the clip. I'll talk about how Ubisoft was going to sue, now Ghost of Yote because they stole the whole flow, but I was making the joke. man the clip context which is why i clipped it like that uh he didn't understand so so those type

interaction are just you know heart you know it's not really uh heavy it's just more like back and for a banter about the gaming and music industry i could keep going on like like i said this would be two and three hours segment if we continue analytical interactions but of course when it comes to other social media platforms definitely make sure to follow via my link tree in my bio but at the end of the day y'all been supporting so much that i had to go a little hollywood and end the analytical action segment but just know I will be I do respond to a lot of different comments so anyways

that means said before we get into the episode 153 you already know we have to talk about the music landscape and of course the gaming landscape and see what notoriously is affecting the masses

pun intended so with that means said let's start off with albums which I think I start off with albums sometimes I forget. You know, hey, I'm 25 going on 80. I ain't going to lie to you. So let's start off with albums.

And let's do the top, let's do top 10 albums to include some of the hip-hop runs, right? Let me see, okay. So let's start off with hip-hop album. And make sure my W-Teg guy, can I see that? All right, cool. So let's start with, let's go to number 10. So as you can see right here, Bad Bunny and his album,

Debbie Tarar Moss Photos. It's a 10th most played album in the world. And then of course, surprisingly, I've never covered this artist or this group, but it's P1 Harmony and their album X. Very interesting,

but as you can see below, never really seen this music label before. I don't know what subsidiary this is under. Let's do some journalist's research and find out right now, right? There's a FNC Hello Eddie 2. I mean, we want to in the world music label so shout out the p1 harmony for currently having the ninth most play project in the world but fnc entertainment often stylized as fnc and hello 82 or two prominent

players oh in the k-pop industry oh okay okay as you can tell when it comes to my coverage of the entire genres i've covered a lot of k-pop artists i mean from black pink to jenny where jennie's from black pink but of course um bt s of course of course who else there's a lot of different groups um there's another one i forget the other i mean of course k-pop demon hunters i mean but that's a gift i mean that's one of my as far as this year y'all really been enjoying the k-pop demon hunter support i mean coverage and then try to see what at the top of my head we had black pink there was another girl group new jeans i think there was a i think it was new jeans anyways i'll cover a lot of different

k-pop artists so to see another k-pop artist on this list objectively having the top 10 album debut um it's crazy so shout to p1 harmony for having a ninth most play album in the world and of course we have olivia dean with her album the art of loving which is under umg that's the eighth most play album in the world and then maria carrie carrie i know she got a little flak because of her kaisen that appearance i don't know what um i don't know why i mean i guess it's because i think thalil said that she was like the worst guess I was like what the world? Who says that? So anyways, he's really saying she was the worst guest

because she was promoting her album, which if you're on a bigger platform than yourself, I would hope you're promoting. Anyways, Mara Carey's album, Here For It All, had a solid debut at number seven, so it's objectively speaking the seventh most played album in the world. And if you see the difference in shading, let me show this. So this right here,

and this right here, I'm just making little circles. These are different shades because the all white one has been out for quite some time. If it's a, I'm probably colorblind. So if it's not white, just know it's his debut. So these are the first week's sale. So not to be that guy, but it's only down from here. You guys. See, that's the problem.

So here for it all as far as his debut rose to the seventh most played project in the world. We'll see if it stays at that metric. Young thug. he's somebody who definitely can be I feel like 54,000 first week it's not the worst for the young thug I keep telling y'all about the landscape of hip hop

and music amongst all these other genres so when it comes to young thug having the sixth most play album in the world debuting and selling 54,000 first week it's not the worst that it's not as bad as you think Hip-hop is not as popular in the year of 2025. It may pick up and may keep going on the down spiral,

but it's just not the most popular as it used to be. Then we have Sabrina Carpenter, the one and only. With her album, a men's best friend, which if you don't know, when it comes to Sabrina, she had the biggest debut as far as a woman artist. And of course, Taylor Swift is going to break that metric. But as of right now, when it comes to Sabrina, Sabrina's man's best friend when it first debuted sold a whopping 350,000 first week,

which is the biggest as far as for a woman artist. And of course, I think the second biggest was Lady Gaga's Mayhem album. The third biggest was Tate McCra's. I forget what her album was called. But it was Tate McCrae's album so close to what. And that album came out February 24th. so Sabrina's number one as of right now before Taylor Swift before Taylor Swift numbers come out because our first week numbers

hasn't came out as a me recording this Sabrina's number one Lady Gaga number two Tate McCray number three as far as first week album sales so that being said shout to Sabrina for hanging on or not even hanging on I mean top five and what your album came out man's best friend your album came out August 29th and it's October 4th, 2025, and you still have the fifth most play album in the world.

I mean, that's a huge accomplishment. So shout out to her for putting our monumental numbers still. Shout to Doja Cat. Now, Dojicat with her album, I think it's V or Vi, V. I don't know. I don't know. I'm not to pronounce that. I released under Sony.

That did 56,000 first week. Now, in Doja Cat's case, I may think I'm switching up the tune as far as Young Thoth, but I do think this is not as great for Doja Cat. because she put out this album as an all pop-centric sound. So you would think you will garner more engagement if you're going to completely switch up the genre. And pop usually is more easy on the ears as far as to listen for majority of audiences.

So to sell 56,000... I'm seeing... Rear first. I'm looking up her career first week sales. But as far as sales, selling 56,000 first week with Vade. I don't think it's as good because of course, um,

she's had a bunch of other albums in the past like Scarlett. That had 72,000 first week and that had Paints of Town Red on it, right? So I thought I was going to do way more because even before that in 2021 when she put out planning her and did 109,000 first week. And she's never debuted at number one, by the way. She's never had a number one album out the gate. Planet her was the. closest at number two and that sold

109,000 first week our planet her honestly would beat out a planet her for number one so Tyler the creator's goodness this man always popping up any shout to Tyler I'd be putting respect on Tyler's name people would be talking about

a big three putting Germain in it for no reason I think future or Tyler the creator could take that that third slide but Tyler the creator beat out doja cats planted her with his album call me if you get lost which debuted at 169,000 first week so when I say doja cat's first week with Vait is worse than what young thug is doing even though it's more technically it's because of the sound the doja cat went with this is not her natural sound this is more

of a pop centric album I'm not going to say it's like to honestly never mind for Drake because with Drake that was obviously experimental experimental album it'd be different If Drake made that song off of some sexy songs for you, what was it called? Like die hard or die trying? I think it was called die trying that he was supposed to have Justin Bieber on, but, you know, he backed out last minute. And he just had a party next door singing that chorus. What was that track? Dot trying.

Yeah, it's like if Drake put out a bunch of dot trying tracks on one album. Like obviously you're trying to go for a hit on every single track. And for VEy, I just don't think it hit the metric. But this should show you how much of a high standard I hold Doja Cat 2. because it debuted as the fourth most play album in the world, which is still pretty good, because the people above her is really the big dogs in their specific genres.

And that leaves me until my next point. Cardi B. With her second week, not her first week, because of course, as you can see right here, she is the cover as far as the musical portion of this episode. But when it comes to Cardi B, and I got to fix this again, hold on. When it comes to Cardi B, I can't even see the thing.

Oh, I almost got it. Okay, there we go. carty b am i the drama having 82 000 first uh second week is very impressive because the first week was 205 000 first week now of course a lot of people as far and i say a lot the barbs they was pointing out this number right here 9000 when you first went who is the number yeah when you first went number one with 205 000 units sold it was very interesting how the physical copies was a significant drop-off from week one to week two. Now, I'm not accused of her or anything like the barbs were.

But it's just very interesting, right? Because you look at it, I don't know if this does albums. I think it just does singles. I'm trying to see, let me see, Cardi B, Am I? When you look at Cardi B, Am I, the Drama, first week's sale, debuted 205,000 first week and I see where the physical unit is at. Of course we see the streaming and things of nature and she sold around 205,000. But I would really want to know about the physical.

It's how you know we do this live. You know, we just pull it up. And okay, here we go. So the 110,000. Okay, no, no, no. I'm tricking. 90,000 of the 205,000 first week sales debut. was pure album sales

Now, I don't want to feed into the barbs All I'm gonna say is That's a very interesting number A very, very wholesome number Very round number And to come to the second week And let's see, let's see As far as

It had to be like 10% right Let's see 90,000 Yeah, so To have a 90% drop drop off in physical units. I mean, come on now. Like, don't make me say it. But then, you know what I'm saying?

I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? Shout out to Cardi B. Obviously, Atlantic saw the market share, right? Because they currently have 28% of the entire music market share, as you can see in the top left. Once again, analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with audio.

Warner's market share was not that high. I think it was in like the 10 to 15 range. So when Cardi dropped and raised it by a bunch to the 30s, and she and with their first week sales i think they helped out warner a lot as far as the shareholders and now because of cardy's still streaming well but then of course the actual physical albums is not as high um the number market share went back went back down so all i'm gonna say is you know a w for carty i'm not accusing her anything it's just one of the biggest drop-offs i've seen the physical units in quite some time that being said um morgan waller continues to put bt on the entire

music industry. I've heard her say it once. Before, I'll say it once again. Morgan Wallet, I'm the problem. It's the most successful album of 2025. Not even Big T. No, not the other one. But he's not even big, but you get the point. The real Big T. As far as Taylor Swift, not even she can catch up because of course we only have two months left as far as the year. She did drop in October, so technically she has three months because she has October, November, December, So three months to try to catch up and it'll be kind of hard as far as her having the most successful album of 2025 because I'm the problem has been out for quite some time. Let me see, I'm the problem. So I'm The Problem by Morgan Wallen came out May 16th of this year.

Ladies and gentlemen, it is October 4th, 2025. And it's still the second most play album in the world. So when I say Morgan Wall is putting BTA on the music industry, I'm not just talking. Like objectively speaking, this album has been either one or two. for this entire year. I mean, obviously it says last week was three, but that's because last week, Cardi was one. Usually, Morgan Wallen is one or two.

As you can see, Cardi B's second week is not even beating Morgan Wallens like 100th. So, yeah, shout out to Morgan, man. If only he ain't say the hardy are, right? I mean, how hard is that? You guys. See, that's the problem. If only he ain't say the hard he are,

maybe he'll get more recognition. But, uh, K-pop demon hunter. Shout out to them. I've been covering them. They've been the highlight of my year. I'm not going to lie. Especially just finding a new fan base and new supporting group who really enjoys my out-of-the-box genre coverage because I really put a lot of effort into these different genre reviews.

Even though I may butcher names or titles from time to time, especially in my Latin character. You know, they're the first ones to let me know. As far as me butchering names, you know, it's definitely not on purpose. With K-pop demon hunters, I put so much respect on their name to the point where, when I first talked about them it was like around the time they actually put out the album which nobody was even talking about K-pop Demon Hunters but I was looking at them I was saying

to myself this is the same team that worked on Spider-Man across the Spider-Verse are they the reason? Are they the reason that trilogy got pushed back? Hold on now you guys I know that ain't who I think it is got me looking at the K-pop Demon Hunter soundtrack team saying I know that

I ain't who I think. I better not be the reason that Beyond the Spider-Verse got delayed But anyways, I first started covering K-pop Demon Hunters June 30th of 2025, and I'm so glad I did as, who would have thunk in October 4th, 25, K-pop Demon Hunters would have had the most supportive fan base. Not the most. Let me stop. You know what I mean. For my OG supporters, come on, now, you probably think it to yourself. But then, you know what I'm saying?

Nah, y'all definitely the OG supporters. But when it comes to the K-pop Demon Hunters' base of what they've been doing as far as supporting all of my content and, of course, the K-pop demon-hunter's. coverage makes me happy that I always dive into different genres and things that nature and gives them respect I feel like they deserve. And as you've seen, it cultivating to them not only being one of the most successful soundtracks, but as of October 4th, K-pop Demon Hunches is unequivocally the most successful soundtrack ever. And of course, it's still the number one most play project in the world, 703,000.

Goodness gracious. and it's been out for a minute. Let me see, K-pop Demon Hunters. K-pop Demon Hunters has been out since June 20th of this year. Insanity. So, and mind you, my first coverage of this was June 30th. So I was early as far as the K-pop Demon Hunters.

Obviously, I wasn't like before or during, but, you know, I wasn't too late. I was way earlier than some of the other platforms who, you know, supposedly is a music podcast. You know, hey, no shame, my fault. But then, you know what I'm saying? All right. So going back over the top 10, Bad Bunny with his album, Debbie Tarrah Moth's photos, comes in at number 10.

P1 Harmony with their album, X, comes in number nine. Olivia Dean with her album, The Art of Loving, comes in at number eight. Mariah Carey with her album, Here for It All, comes at number seven. Young Thug with the album, U.Y. Scootie, comes in number six. Sabrina Carpenter's album, Man's Best Friend, comes in number five. 5, Doja Cat's album, Vague, comes in number four, Cardi B's album, Am I the Drama, comes in number three. And of course, it's been one and two for this entire year.

Morgan Wallin's album, I'm the Problem, comes in number two, and K-pop Demon Hunters unequivocally is probably one of the most successful soundtracks that we've seen in quite some time. So switching gears from albums that's notoriously impacting the masses, let's get into singles. as when it comes to the singles see if I can find this for quick when it comes to the singles you're going to see some reoccurring

tracks from we're going to see some reoccurring album titles because of course these singles are from some of the albums that was on the list but for the most part I mean it's pretty different as far as the specific tracks and they're not all just from the albums that we just finished listing off

so when it comes to that trying to make sure it's big enough pulse a yo You guys. See, that's the problem. All right, so the 10th Most Played album, if y'all can see them. Let me zoom in some more. Sometimes I can't tell because my screen's so small, as far as what I look at.

I'm just breaking the fourth wall right quick, nothing too crazy. So, but I'm pretty sure y'all can see this. So, Dial With a Smile by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars. It's the 10th most played track in the world. Shout out to them. Another fan base that's super supportive to the point where I can't give y'all them metrics. But, hey, just know. I'm a lady Gaga fan for life

you guys that's all I'm gonna say uh Raven lanay her track love me not is the ninth most played track in the world Justin Bieber with daisies is the eighth most played track in the world shout out to Justin Bieber

because of course when it comes to him just disregarding my favorite artist requests for a feature is it okay I got my dope on me it hurt my heart that he did not want to give a feature

to Drake's track dot triumph but it's okay because you know he went on to put out a whole album right and music creation mode and he ain't want to give a feature to my favorite artist is it okay i got my dope on me i said what the so anyways i guess jesson biebber kept a dope to himself so when it comes to teddy swims who objectively speaking let me look at this list yeah objectively speaking has one of the most successful tracks of all time you know i was talking about k-pop demon hunters and morgan wallace album am out of problem teddy swims well he's

doing as far as a single lose control it's what every artist dreams of to put out a track in it to get in for that track to get the most love that you expect for it i don't think teddy swims could have had higher expectations for lose control and it not exceeded lose control by teddy swims is like when lebron was in high school putting up 80 points a game right and it came to the NFL and still blew expectations out of the water this is exactly the same equivalent because teddy swims out a track lose control has been on the charts for about 110 weeks as you can see right here 110 weeks and it's still percolating in the top 10 to the point where last week it was number nine these are some bad circles i'm mad just draw arrows so the point where it's number nine

but in general it's usually like it's number seven right now but it's towards the top as far as this specific track Taylor Swift just dropped so it may drop a little bit as far as it actually holding this top 10 position but what Teddy Swims has done with his track lose control it really just shows you how you put out a track and it's garnered some of the biggest engagement

that we've ever seen for a specific track in the past three to four years it's really that big like we talked about shibuzis a bar song we've talked about little nods x old town road what teddy swims has did with lose control this one track not even talking about his other tracks because i think teddy swims is immensely talented because there's a track with teddy swims and givion i believe let me see teddy swims givion yeah are you even real that's one of my favorite tracks and that came out like early 2025 yeah january 10th, 2025. And it's still to this day

one of my favorite tracks. Teddy Swims is immensely talented. But of course, when it comes to lose control, objectively speaking, that's the most engaged with track. So this track alone, been on the charts for 110 weeks, never leaving number nine, or just never leaving the top 10,

is going to feed generations. So shout out to Teddy Swims for making what a whole artist's career makes and one song with lose control. Anyways, Sabrina Carpenter and her track, Manchild, comes at number six, shout out to her. Your Idol, which is the most successful

I'm tripping. No, your idol is the... Okay, that's all about to say. That's still wrong. My fault. Your idol is the fifth most play track in the world. If you don't know, it's from the Saja Boys, which is the boy group of

K-pop demon hunters. And furthermore, during my extensive coverage of K-pop Demon Hunters, your idol is my favorite track from the soundtrack. So if you just want to know, well, now you know. I've said that multiple times, but I love to, you know, regurgitated, because guess what?

Every time I hear preaching to the choir, can I get the mic a little higher? I think to myself, you guys. That's a hit right there. So anyways, your idol is my favorite track off of the K-pop demon DeMahuntcher soundtrack, but as far as in the world, it's the fifth most played

track in the world, and you have What I Want by Morgan Wallin and number four. Soda Pop by the Saja Boys once again and number three. Ordinary by Alex Warren and number two. And then of course the most popular track in the world is Golden.

By Hunter slash X EJ. Audrey Nuna and Ree Amy which is more commonly referred to as K-pop Demon Hunters because the whole show is about them. So those are just the actual artist names. The main thing I want to tell y'all with this this is the definition of golden

you put out a movie it does well but then you put out a soundtrack and it does even more numbers to the point where now the movie which was really a Netflix show goes into the movie theaters

and puts some monumental numbers so now you're looking at you think it to yourself hold on now this is the perfect opportunity to have one of the greatest franchises in K-pop history which is really what execs were called Golden.

But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like 10. So anyways, going back over the top 10. I Dial With a Smile by Lady Gaga and Bruder Morris is the 10th most played track in the world. Love Me Not by Raven Linnaeus the 9th. Daisies by Justin Bieber is number 8. Lose Control by

Teddy Swims is at number 7. Man Child by Sabrina Carpenter is at number 6. Your Idol by the Saja Boys is at number 5. What I Want by Morgan Wallin is at number 4. Soda Pop by the Sajer Boys is at number 3 ordinary by Alex Warren is at number two and then of course the most popular track in the world objectively speaking is golden by the k-pop demon hunters now of course switching gears from

music we're going to get into gaming talking about some of the biggest games that's currently impacting the masses affecting the masses on different platforms and of course you know they got to start with steam as this list is very interesting because i was looking at a lot of people saying Marvel rivals was dead right tell me why they're on this list then shepherd just look at the state of gaming like what is going on tell me why a Marvel rivals is on this list if this game is dead like if this game is dead then I want to know what what uh what a game that's not dead looks like you know what I mean so don't don't mind me just trying to be a w tech guy not too because oh I can click

control and oh I'm so old you guys see that's the problem just figure that out i can click control it hold this that's that's crazy all anyways uh let's let's see let's put it right here all right i should be able to see that should i zoom in a little bit all right yeah all right cool so starting at number 15 what in the world is that digimon a little side tangent right quick one of my favorite childhood shows was digimon because i was really into bay blaze and hugo so when digiomai came out oh i was also into Pokemon i mean that goes without saying the whole theme song for digimod the whole like what was it didgy mon digital monsters i thought that was so fire as a kid all right my fault little side's injured all right so we're gonna go from

number one to 15 because of course sometimes well not sometimes all the time we don't count uh wallpaper injure actually we can still go up and skip that wait can we do that I don't know if it works like that yeah works like that my fault I couldn't count all right so I got to compute right quick you know me I got to update my GPU and my own brain because you're not upgrading my PC i'm my fault you know shepherd i'm my fault i'll stop i'll stop i'll start flexing on all right djima story right comes in number 15 we just gonna call this 15 actually we can't do it 15 because if you go that yeah i was right i was right the first time anyways all right we're going from number one i mean it kills the suspense but

counter strike two is always number one on steam so the number one game in the world on steam is is counter strike two delta two unequivocally is always the second most played game. Oh my goodness, that too is trash. All right, whatever. We just got to stick with that. PubG Battlegrounds. Why am I writing like this?

I need like an actual pen. I ain't going to like to you. All right, there we go. PubG Battlegrounds is number three as far as the most played game on Steam. Now, we'll talk about concurrent player counts in 24-hour peak, but when it comes to Counterstrike 2,

it's concurrent, it's 829,000, is 24-hour peak, is 1.2 million. I mean, goodness gracious. So it's not really a competition when it comes to counterstrike compared to the field, but I will read off the other statistics just for analytical purposes. So Dota 2, the concurrent play count is $475,000, the 24-hour peak of $7,000,769,000. PubGy Battlegrounds comes at the third most play's game on Steam with 319,000 concurrent players and 557,000

24 hour peak and then we have Delta Force which comes in at number 4 has a concurrent player count of 144,000 and a 24 hour peak of 200,000 so shout out to Delta Force I've ever talked about them before

let me see Delta I have okay shout to me right now at my fault so February 5th of this year I talked about Delta Force and I got into the sales and review Roundup and you know we talked a lot about the extraction shooter and how it's one of the

large scale warfare FPS is reminiscent of the battlefield. So anyways, shout to them being the fourth most play game on Steam. And then we have Rust. Rust is the fifth most play game with 102,000 concurrent player count 173,000, 24 hour

peak. And of course, we're going to skip wallpaper engine. Banana. Shout to Banana, man. Whoever playing this game, that was the worst six I've ever seen my life. Shout to Banana. I keep doing it like that. I'm talking I got a look at my keyboard. Yeah, that's not how a six look on my keyboard.

I ain't on Cap T. Let's try this one more time. I know y'all enjoyed this terrible drawing, but it's okay. I don't. All right. Shout to Banana for being the sixth most play game on Steam. 95,000 concurrent play account, 24-hour peak of 97,000. And then we have Apex Legends.

Boy, Apex Legends, just consistently has one of the more die-hard fan bases when it comes to battle real. Because I don't see PubG on this list I'm like, oh, never mind,

I'm tripping. PubG was number three. I definitely see PubG towards the top every single time. So PubG, Apex Legends, Apex Legends,

shout out to them if I always have some of the most popular battle realale games for Steam. If only H1Z1 could be on this list one day.

Shepard, just look at the state of gaming like what is going on? I have a dream that one day H1Z1 will have the loyal fans that Apex Legends and PubG Battlegrounds has

But you know, hey, they say Even though you invent a wheel It's gonna be people that reinvent it And become more popular for it But we always remember H1Z1 man Poor one out for them, man You guys Poor one out for them

Alright so then when it comes to Holo Night It's the eighth most play game On Steam shout to Hollow Night Shamedous plug I actually play Hollow Night on my analytic dreams video platform just type in Hollow Night analytic Dreams with the Z and my gameplay show pop up I really enjoyed this game. I think Hollow Night

was one of the more in captivating games I played in a while as far as just out the gate I understood why people enjoyed Hollow Night Silk Song. This game was fire. I think it's because I really like platformers all of my favorite, come to think of it, some of my most favorite games is platforms. I mean, Split Fictions is my game

in the year for this year. Last year last year what was it was the astrobot did astrobot come out last year let's see astroby release date yeah astrobot was my game of the year and i think it actually ended up winning game of the year and in the year before that i think it was star wars and you know quiet as kept star wars had some great had great platforming mechanics star wars it was a jett i was a survivor

no that came out 2024 when a world my tripper Astrobat and Jedi Survivor came out the same year What was my What was my 2023 game of the year? Because I knew Star Wars Was it Spider-Man? When Spider-Man come out? I don't know because it can't have been Spider-Man

Let me see Oh, Spider-2 was, I mean, I'm biased I'm biased. So Spider-Man, you know, I literally, I grew up on Spider-Man, I think it's the greatest fictional creation of all time. So I'm a little biased when it comes to 2020.

23 but um objectively speaking i think elden ring won there right let me see um let's see if i can find this one game of the year at the game wars 2023 because i don't know why i thought star wars goddardustre survivor came out 2023 oh balder's gate one uh baldersgate 3 won and beat the nominees of Alan Wake 2, Marvel Spider-Man 2, and Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, and Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Huh. Interesting. Well, anyways, I don't know. I mean, it's probably Spider-Man 2. Oh, I think Cyberpunk was my favorite game in 2023, but it came out like years before, but y'all know the whole debacle with Cyberpunk. I think that was my favorite game, because that's the game I was putting my life into that game. Like, I had no life. That's the one game.

you know a game is good when and I'm not you know this is not advice I wouldn't take this you know to heart but you know a game is good when you just disregard all life responsibilities

I mean cyberpunk had me in a chokehold pause you guys see that's the problem yeah cyberpun one of my favorite games of all time I compare it to mass effect but only the DLC portion

Phantom Liberty I think is mass effect level of storytelling so anyways as far as the rest of the game I mean, it's, no, it's top tier. But the DLC took it from a 9 to a 10. All right, why that side tension happened? Oh, yeah, because Hollenay.

Yeah, Hollenay is up there for my game of the year. But it's number two. Call me Bias. I played split fiction with my cousin, so maybe that's why it's number one for me. But split fiction is my favorite game of the year. And once again, I'm a sucker for platforming. And cyberpunk also has some pretty solid platform.

All right, anyways. All right, Star Doe Valley. After that, crazy side tangent. Hey, where can you find that? Only here at notorious mass effect. Shepard. All right, my fault. Let me get back into it.

All right, Star Doe Valley comes in as the ninth most play game in the world. 77,000 concurrent player count and 109,000 as far as 24-hour peat. And then Bongo Cat, ladies and gentlemen, when I tell you that I really cover the entire gaming and music industry, I really mean it. As my coverage of Bongo Cat is up right now. I cover Bongo Cat May 26 of this year. and essentially I called it the ultimate game for people who love cats. And safe to say, it still is.

Shepard, just look at the state of gaming. Like, what is going on? And then we have Monster Hunter coming in at number 11 is the most play game on Steam. I don't really have too much to say about Monster Hunter. A lot of people say it fell off. If this is falling off, I'm pretty sure a lot of games would love to fall off too. Naraka Blade Point is the 12th most play game on Steam. I swear that's the two

and then of course Marvel rivals hold up now but y'all said that game fell off anyways Marvel rivals is a 13th most played game on Steam and then of course

we have oh my goodness of course we have Digimon as the 14th most played game on Steam now usually we skip over another thing we skip over wallpaper engine and there's something else but I guess it didn't show up for this time

anyways shout to them I think when it comes to Digimon them have a 58,000 concurrent players 70,000 peak as far as 24 hour peak is pretty solid as I really wanted to look at Marvel rivals

because of course you already know how people feel about Marvel rivals as far as calling it washed and things of that nature which you know technically speaking the all-time peak was nine months ago why did I have to show it because I was just being petty so you know I do I do want to be fair and showcase why people say

day has fell off. But the 24 hour peak is still 100,000. I think that's still pretty healthy for a video game that came out what? Let me see. Marvel rivals release date. I still think that's pretty solid for a game that came out December 6th, 2024. It literally came out last year. I mean, barely, but came out last year and it's still one of the most play games on Steam. So anyways, going back over the top 14, we have Digimon at number 14. Marvel rivals at 13, the Rock of Blade Point at 12, monster hunter 11 bongo cat at 10 stardew valley at 9 hollow night soaksonga at 8 apex legends at 7 banana at 6 rust at 5 delta force at 4 and then pub g battlegrounds at 3 and of course the top 2 that's never changing on steam delta 2 ironically at number 2 and then counter strike 2 at number 1 so as far as

the games on steam those are the games notoriously impacted the masses Now when it comes on Nintendo, I do want to say this. Looking at the actual charts for Nintendo, as far as Fimitsu, I don't know why in the world they could include other console games because it really throws me off. But at least they show me the actual units for these Nintendo games. So it kind of gives, it still gives me the ultimate depiction of what's the most popular on the platform. But Fimitsu, please change your sight, man. Like goodness, these consoles being in the midst of this is crazy. So unequivocally, objectively speaking,

Mario Kart World is the most played game on the Switch 2. If you just want to see the copies, I mean, just look at this. There's a reason why I say Mario is one of the most iconic figures in gaming. Actually, the most iconic. Don't maybe have to show you all my banner once again. You already know, when it comes to Mario, I'll put a misrespect of that man's name. You see, he's right next to notorious as far as the podcast. you know notorious mass effect just sounds better than anything i could come up with as far as

mario car world is the most play game on nintendo switch two then you have the red alchemist the red alchemist which is the second most play game on the switch currently i wish it would just i wish it would just change it i don't know how to i don't know how to make it it just changes it i don't think it works like that uh so yeah we can't do that for every single one um i'm just gonna read it off mario car world is the most play game on nintendo switch with 35 000 copies as far as the specific week 1.8 million goodness gracious in total and then the red alchemist and the white guardian is the second most play game on nintendo uh 10 000 copies oh it just came out so it's 10 000 out the gate shout to them nine r i p c

I don't know what that is but it's the third most play game on switch currently and when it comes to that specific game uh it's 10,000 out the gate so it just came out as well uh then we have donkey conanza still making this rounds as it is what we're at the fourth one two i already lost my spot yes the fourth most play game on the nintendo switch platforms more specifically the switch two i think it's exclusively on the swiss two it's so not it sold 9000 copy this week, 327,000 in total. So shout out to them for that. And then we have EA Sports FC26,

which is the fifth most play game on Nintendo with 6,000 copies currently, and it just came out on the Switch platforms. So shout out to them. So that's the first week. The sixth most play game on Nintendo Switch is Sonic Racing. Hold up now.

What's my other screen? Now y'all told me, and y'all made all this noise about Sonic Racing being leaps and bounds better than Mario Car World. But the sales debuted at 5,000? Shepherd, just look at the state of gaming. And hold up.

You guys. See, that's the problem. If y'all saying something is higher quality than another game, then why not support it? Is that an abstract concept or something? If I think one game is better than the other game, it's safe to assume that more people would start supporting that one game that's higher quality than the other to showcase to developers what

they should be putting their effort towards 5,000 out the gate for Sonic. Like I said, Donkey Kong Bonanza, technically they've been out for a minute, or not a minute, but you know, they came out July of this year, I believe, and they sold 9,000 in this week of October 4th, 2025. but you look at the total it's $327,000 so first week for Donkey Kong Bonanza was crazy to the point where it was number one

it was literally one of the it was the cover of the gaming portion of one of my episodes and that's because Donkey Kong Bonanza put up some numbers that notoriously affected the masses when it comes to Sonic Racing cross worlds coming out

make sure this game come out hold on it's these numbers wrong I know my numbers ain't wrong but you know we got a fact check it looks so bad I got a fact check Cross worlds Wow Shepherd Just look at the state of gaming

Like what is going on Now y'all gonna make Sonic become exclusively a movie character Because look at this ladies and gentlemen This game came out September 25th 2025

And let me tell you some other games That debut Not even like selling Just debuted Hired in Sonic The Red Alchemist Ever heard of that? Me neither

Non-RIP sequel ever heard of that me neither um and then you have EA sports and then donkey con we've heard of that of course but um seeing the red alchemist donkey con don't donkey con the red alchemist and the non rip sequel like what is that hold on let me look this up nine rip no why do my number not type nine rip sequel Nintendo game like what is this uh what does this even look like let's this even look like and gentlemen, you learn this game out? So Sonic, shame on you. Shame. Shame. Shame on y'all.

I feel like that one meme, just, just, if you're going to say this game better than Mario Kart World, and it just came out, there's two other games I don't even, I've never even heard of, that debuted higher than Sonic. It's actually kind of frustrating. You know, for me, I don't have no dog. Oh, my fault. I was playing the whole thing. Y'all can't even see it. Should I pull it back up?

Yeah, y'all get the point. I'll have to watch it back. But y'all, y'all get the point. Shame are y'all? Shame. Anyways, what is it? Seven? Let me see.

There's that one, two, three, four, five, six. Okay, yeah, we're at seven. Minecraft comes in number seven with five thousand copies sold and, of course, a whopping four million across the total copies. far as on a Nintendo platform. Crazy day in history. Ranch Stories Let's Grand Bazaar of the Win

has sold, and I did that because it had an exclamation point. Just, you know, probably lost in translation. I had 4,000 copies sold currently. Total is 79,000 as far as total. And then you have Pokemon, Scarlet, and Violent at number

9 with 4,000 copies sold, and of course, a whopping 5.6 million copies on a Nintendo platform. And then you have and then you have rounding out the top 10 Super Mario Party Jambrey Nintendo Switch 2 edition

plus Jamberry TV coming at number 10 selling 4,000 and having a whopping 6th the 8,000 copies total. So going back over the top 10 as far as the games that's notoriously affecting the Nintendo Switch platform.

You have Super Mario Party Jambery Nintendo Switch 2 edition plus Jambo Reed TV coming in number 10 Pokemon Scarlet and Violent coming in number nine rent stories Let's Grand Bazaar of the Wind coming in number eight Minecraft coming in number seven Sonic racing cross worlds coming in and number six EA sports FC 26 coming in number five Donkey Kong Bonanza coming in number four nine RIP sequel

coming in number three the red alchemist and the white guardian coming in number two and then of course the character the IP the brand that's been dominating since it arrived on the Nintendo platform Mario car world is still the most play game on a Nintendo switch platform so that being said those are the games notoriously affecting the Nintendo switch platform now let's switch gears into x-box as when it comes to Xbox since my screen my quick when it comes to Xbox the main thing

you should know is shout out to Hallanay Silk Song once more still being the second most played game on the Xbox platform is a monumental accomplishment especially because you could also play this game on the Game Pass

which they show you right here which we're going to get into the GamePath for this next episode safe to say we're just going to see how it plays out right now uh Minecraft of course comes in number one for xbox silent hill shout out to them game just came out not too long ago third most play game on xbox then you have mortar combat 11 bro we're in the world is it because it's on sale or is it just because people love fighting game because i'm not mad either way i love motor combat i do never i never want them to suffer as a gaming franchise i feel like when they first came out it was a little bare bones

but they picked it back up and i do believe that more to combat 11 started to add more things to make it more of a full game. You know, them not having private lobbies at the start of launch was kind of crazy, especially when Street Fire and Tekin start to showcase with a real fighting game that's fleshed out looks like. But from the bare bones,

from the foundational mechanics, it was a fun game to me. And I really enjoyed playing the Sub-Zer, as you already know, I love using the Ice Clone. I mean, here's one of my favorite ways to make people upset on fighting games. Anyways, Minecraft, the Java and Bedrock Edition.

comes at number five as far as the fifth most play game and then a hollow night void heart edition which i think is silk song and the first hollow night game is the sixth most play game on xbox and then rounding off seven through ten we have what is this ready or not is still making waves i'm not going to lie to you when it comes to ready or not at first i'm not going to say i thought it was a fad but the way that it is had a long-standing engagement fan base it's had a long-standing support from his fan base it definitely is one of the more surprising games to me in the year of 2025 especially with the way that battlefield is coming um the way that a lot of people say black up seven is not you know really it's really fumbling out

the gate as far as public perception i played blackop seven the early uh access edition well not edition I play Black Ops 7 early access like yesterday. As of me recording this, I played it yesterday. And I enjoyed it. But maybe it's because I don't play Black Ops like that. Or I just don't play Calla Duty like that. So, you know, when me playing a gazillion games, it's nice to hop into Call of Duty and feel some type of nostalgia-like effect

as far as what I'm used to playing as I was growing up as a kid. But nowadays, I play so many different games that when I hop into a Black Ops, I don't know. Maybe I just look at it different from people who only play. play call the duty so i enjoyed it but obviously public perception could be a little better for them so they come in number eight like i said uh ready and i is at number seven forza comes in at number uh nine shout to them and of course hoggworth's legacy on the world what happened to them what made them come back they put out an update or something it's the digital deluxe edition i

don't know what they put in this digital deluxe but it's eighty dollars right so y'all think that's you know worth you right it's your money you guys see that's the problem anyways that comes in number 10 so rounding off going back over the top 10 games on the Xbox platform we have Hogwarts Legacy the Digital

Deluxe Edition and number 10 we have Forza Horizon 5 the premium edition and number 9 Call of Duty Blackop 7 DeVault Edition upgrade at number 8 Ready or Not at number 7 and then of course rounding off

1 through 6 once more as you can see right here we have Hollow Knight Void Heart Edition and number 6 Minecraft and number 5 more to combat 11 and number 4 Silent Hill

F at number 3 which is interesting I wonder if people are going to start using letters instead of numbers as far as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 that's pretty solid really tricks your mind because you just look at silent Hill. I didn't even think about the F. Interesting. I don't know. It's just a little tip of that I saw. All right. So third most play game, Silent Hill.

Second most play game, Hollow Night Silk Song. And of course, number one is still Minecraft, Java, and Bed Rock Edition for PC. But as you can see right here, there's a reason why Hollow Night Silk Song is the cover for the gaming portion of this episode. It's because they've been putting BTA on engagement as far as on the Xbox platform. Now, to be fair, they are not on the top 10. as far as PlayStation. But, oh, first, first.

I almost forgot. Got to show you out of game. Should I even show you all the Game Pass edition at this point? People are going on strike. I'm not even going to show you all the Game Pass because if what they're doing right now sticks, if they keep their price point, man, we're going to forget about the game pass, man. We're going to get back to just owning games at the full price. So anyways, I'm not even going to show game pass, man.

I can't support that. Let me see. So getting into the top 10. for PlayStation number one just killing all the suspense shout out to goosyote i just recently had a little cosplay you know just a little one you know this is why you should follow me on social media it's but safe to say uh your boy uh turned into turned into a little gozo tishima uh ghost of yote boss himself as you can see right here definitely make sure to follow me on IG you see what i'm saying people commenting right now yeah people comment as we

speak non comments as you can see right there people liking and stuff anyways uh let's let's let's let's see so yeah i can play this analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio but this is to show you all my little cosplay right quick my whole flow flows the flow bar for bar like i think i got the best fit in ghostly yote i think i'm about to be online okay one thing i will say about this play through is my mask technically did not mess with the audio too much so i think they can't stand me obviously less than they can now but it seemed like because this was live it seemed like people was enjoying it i really uh that streamed a pretty solid numbers so i think people was enjoying it

talking dLC something like that and people was responded so that mean that that's the main thing making sure they can understand me because i'm not going to sacrifice audio quality for costume magic as you can see your boy you boy was dripped out a little bit i was talking to sucker punch you know what i mean they was like hey man we're trying to put you in the game i was like yeah you know it's very authentic you know what i'm saying so i can't believe that man pulled out a gun in a whole sword fight oh what happened it's about it's about how effective and I'm not gonna lie that's one of my favorite drops to play while I'm playing games Like come on bro that's one of my favorite drops

To come out as a winner bro, that's what it's about I think this can run on a PS4 which I think y'all let me know I give him my expert opinion I would probably say um definitely no people will not let that PS4 go man that PS4 came out what 23 13 2012 people would not let it go oh no now this song kind five don't tell me it's gonna have an expedition 33 type of soundtrack this man a trip this man crazy been out of 10 no notes no no notes all right so anyways that's a clip for a ghost of tashima but as you can see right here it comes at number one as the uh the most play game on the playstation platform currently and of course

ghost of yote is exclusively on the ps5 so can't get anywhere else it'll make it'll make since that debuted at number one. With that being said, NBA 2K, oh my goodness, that that two wasn't egregious. All right, let me see. There we go. Take our time with it. The twos be switching me up.

2K26 is the second most play game on a PlayStation platform, seeming as if a lot of people are enjoying that. FC26 is the third most play game on PlayStation. Fortnite is the fourth most play game on PlayStation. Then you have Call of Duty, which of course is being helped out by the Black, Black Op 7 pre-orders, fifth most played game on PlayStation right now,

and then of course you have EA Sports Madden NFL 26, which is the sixth most play game. And of course, going through 7 through 10, safe to say, borderlands actually, you know, made a little resurgence as far as being on the top 10. Well, I think it was on top 10 when it first came out.

But anyways, is it's number five no it's seven yeah that's a T that's not even the seven I know y'all loving my artistic skills right Digimon what in the world

first we saw it on Steam rounding off the top 15 and now we see Digimon once again is the seventh most played game on PlayStation hold up now Shepard just look at the state of gaming

like what is going on I wonder what's intriguing people to play this game more than usual. Interesting. Very interesting. Let's see. So anyways, then we have number eight, Roblox. Oh my goodness. Not even trying with the numbers. All right, there we go. Number eight with Roblox. Battlefield 6 is the ninth most play game on PlayStation. Shout to them. They definitely coming for Call of Duty this year. It seems like the whole public is behind Battlefield to take out Call of Duty for the year of 2025 going into 2026. So we're going to see what happens with that one.

but then we have borderlands four which is a 10th most play game on playstation so safe to say they definitely are pretty ecstatic about the numbers um i don't think i looked at the steam numbers let me see because the game just came out not too long ago probably like what a week or two ago because another shame was plug you know i played the game analytic dreams uh video on spotify see the video along with the audio i played the game and if you just type in borderlands analytic dreams with a Z it should pop up but right now I'm typing in borderlands 4 to try to give you a head count of the actual game so as you can see right here interestingly enough the 24 hour peak was 20 days ago and a 24 hour peak is 84,000 now that's not bad 84,000 is a 24 000 is not bad at

all the players right now as far as concurrently playing is 51,000 so it could be better but it's not It could be worse, right? So, and honestly, I don't know how I didn't make the top 15 list because it has higher numbers than Digimon. I don't know, maybe I was looking at the wrong thing. Maybe it's going off a concurrent, but that one makes sense because the 24-hour peak was higher. I don't know, whatever.

Borderlands 4 is still doing very well on Steam. So nice to see it doing well on a PlayStation platform too. That's why I like to go over these platforms specifically to showcase every single game has its increase in certain consoles, right? Mario obviously is the king of Xbox, or not Xbox, a king of Nintendo. Counterstrike 2 is obviously the king of SteamDB. When it comes to PlayStation and Xbox, there's really no kings of these specific consoles. It's always fluctuating, right?

So getting back into, once I find it. Let's see, getting back into, okay, it's right here. The top 10 of PlayStation, obviously going back over the top 10. Borderlands 4 comes in number 10. Battlefield 6 comes in number 9. Roblox comes in number 8. Digimon, surprisingly,

probably the most surprising game throughout this whole coverage of the gaming industry. Comes in at number 7. And of course, to round off 6, to round off 1 through 6, we have Madden, NFL, 26. as you can see right here being the sixth most play game on playstation and then you have uh ghost go see yote oh no call of duty which you know is helped by the black cop 7 pre-orders is that number five fortnight comes in number four that game is never going to not be popular it seems like

which you know fortnight definitely puts a lot of effort into post launch content so i'm not mad at them still making an impact in the gaming industry they bring a lot of money to be a free to play game let's just put it like that fc 26 the third most play game in the um playstation mba 2k 26 it's the second most play game and a shout out to sucker punch productions for having the most play game on a playstation platform and ghost of yote so that is essentially speaking the most popular games on each and every console on each and every platform and with that we are going to transition into the next episode, which is 153. As you can see titled, oh, as you can see title right here, is Hollow Night, Silk

Congratulations. How are you feeling about that? And that this will be baby number four for you, Cardi. Yeah. Congratulations.

Thank you. I'm actually very, I'm excited. I'm happy. I feel like I'm in a good space. I feel very strong. I feel very powerful that I'm doing all this work, but I'm doing all this work while I'm creating a baby. Me and my husband were very supportive of each other. Now, ladies and gentlemen, that was just Cardi B talking about her great relationship with Stefan Diggs to the point where she let the public know that she is indeed pregnant by Stefan Diggs. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? And of course, we also want to say congratulations and hopefully it's a healthy delivery.

But at the end of the day, we have to get these jokes off because, of course, who would have thought that Offset himself was a listener of the podcast? as notorious mass effects see that's why you should rate this five stars and share this to somebody who you think would enjoy entire breakdowns as far as the music and gaming industry but anyways this you know let's get to our superstar guests right because offset wanted to come on notorious mass effect and basically give his reactions to this specific clip because he has a lot to say so i'm just going to let offset taken away and and how he felt about the clip i don't know what no but you can't be crying on my street congratulations Oh my God

What? Yo, oh no See, my fault y'all. I had to get offset out of the way. I don't know why he came on my podcast crying like that. Like, he sounded like Tyrese for a second, but anyways. Cardi B is putting out her album Am I the Drama Tomorrow?

And this is a seven-year gap between her debut album, which you already know won an entire Grammy, which is kind of insane, right? there's a Grammy winning album that she put down 2018 here we are in 2025 and safe to say the engagement the engagement of am i the drama is not necessarily the same when compared to her invasion of privacy so the reason why i say that is because the singles for invasion of privacy was a lot of hits off of the album and then you come to am i the drama and safe to say when she released the features and we saw Megan the Stallion, I was thinking to myself, isn't Megan the Stallion and Cardi B. Feefe in, but then I remember they totally made a track a long time ago titled Wop. But then, you know what I'm saying?

I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? So as far as the track listing, I believe she's going for a specific feel as far as having already popular tracks on that particular album instead of entirely new music, even though It's a seven-year hiatus between her debut EP and this one. So Wop and not only Wop up being on this album, it's very interesting. And it's going to be 23 tracks from the last time I checked. It may be more, maybe less.

But as far as the features, that's set in stone. As you have Janet Jackson, Selena Garment is Summer Walker, Lizzo, Kalani, Megan Lee Stallion, Cash Cobain, and Tyler. so when it comes to that i do believe having these particular artists on the album is shaping up to at least give us a serviceable project that she put a lot of thought into which is why i don't know why a wop or a up made the album because it came out so long ago but anyways when it comes to carty b i already said in my past cardi b coverage as far as when i think i was when i was talking about imaginary players i broke down how atlantic has a new regime and of course this is

very obvious if you look at my coverage as far as was it julie julie how you spell her name julie yeah here we go okay julie greenwald i cover this august 20th of 20th of 20th julie greenwals to step down as elli grange takes charge of atlantic music group i broke that down like a kilo of myly cyrus but then you know what i'm saying like damn so that being said the main thing when you have a new regime is they look at the field they look at where they're spending money and they try to have cost effective cuts as far as marketing budget and i believe cardi b is one of those i do not think that the whole way that she gets around releasing the albums is going to work this time so now she has to put

out an entire body of work now the rollout has been very interesting as far as it being lackluster and we're going to see what the first week sales look like because it's is not something that I want to fail. I'm a huge Cardi B fan. You just have to keep it eight more than 92, especially when I covered the engagement side of the industry. Now, as far as quality, that's a whole other discussion. I think the album's going to be phenomenal,

but I do not think at this point in time, it can live up to who am I the drama? Like, as far as a hiatus, 2018 to 2025, I mean, hold on, let me compare it to gaming, right? GTA5 release date. GTA5 came out 2013 and it's set to release in 2026. now it may be a far-fish comparison comparing cardi B to GTA but the main reason I'm comparing those two is because the hiatus is hard to live up to the hype that the hiatus built right so now

you're looking at it from a quality perspective but subconsciously you're already going to compare it to invasion of privacy people haven't heard well I guess they heard tracks from the album because of whopping up and outside and things that nature but as far as the entire project people who are listening right now have already made up their minds and they haven't listened to the album entirely once they already made up their mind that this album is not better than invasion of privacy so now when you're looking at that i feel like from a quality perspective it's going to be very subjective and up in the air from the people who's honest and actually gives it a listen as far as trying to see if it's quality versus the people who are mad at her hiatus or they're just going to come out and say it's not better than

invasion of privacy so now we got that out the way as far as the quality right the engagement is a whole other objective metric and Cardi B is one of the biggest hip-hop stars in the game so I'm not saying she's going to flop selling like 70 or 80,000 first week I predict that she's going to do around 170 to 190,000 first week of course I'm open to being wrong but as far as looking at it uh looking at the track list right now since 23 it's 21 tracks including up and WAP so 23 yeah I mean also including imaginary players outside well all the tracks included is 22 23 tracks i don't know why i said earlier i think i said 25 but she's on the atlantic like i already said um atlantic is under warner warner currently has 18% of the entire music market share so it will behoove them to help carty be out as far as analytically on the charts because there's not a lot of warner artists in the top 10 you have gunna you have alex warner and you have somber

which, I mean, technically, that's a lot if you're comparing it to the field. But then you look at UMG, they have one, two, three, four. They have the top four, right? They have five, six, seven. They have seven out of the top tune. And Warner has, well, okay, actually Warner has two because Sombard's 11, the 11th most play project in the world. So Alex Warren and Gunner is currently the flagship mascots for Warner.

I believe Cardi is going to easily debut in the top ten. I think that's a no-brainer, right? But as far as going number one, K-pop Demon Hunters currently is still doing $120,000 every single week. Sabrina Carpenter is doing $120,000 every single week. Just so happens, I believe

Cardi B would do between $140,000 to $190,000 first week sales. Now, I know a lot of people are going to look at her last album and say that's a flaw, but we really can't compare it to that once again, right? Invasion of Privacy, let's see, first week. So as far as Cardi B, invasions, of privacy it sold 255,000 first week I think she at least lost a hundred

thousand due to her hiatus so I'm saying once again I think she's gonna do between 140 to 190 even that's a big gap right I would say closer to a hundred if I had to specifically give like a 10,000 range I would say 160 to 170,000 first week I'm open to be wrong but I bet you's gonna be around that metric so now looking at the debut of number one of invasion of privacy with 255,000 first week she can't still have that metric of having went number one because i do believe if nobody else drops and if sabrina or if k-pop demon hunters or if morgan walling doesn't drop a deluxe or a vinyl she could end up going number one and i believe carty be is such a darling in the industry that the politics

behind the scenes would not let people drop a deluxe or a vinyl like taylor swift did everything single time in 24 when a big artist was dropping. Remember when Kendrick was dropping and then Taylor Swift dropped a whole other vinyl and remember when Drake was about to drop her loss deluxe or whatever. I think Drake was about to drop her loss in general. And Taylor Swift is going to drop a vinyl saying his loss, like not even a whole new project, just a new title with a vinyl attached to it. I'm thinking to myself. You guys. See, that's the problem. So as far as the landscape, Cardi B is a darling. I think she's going to get the number one most played album as far as the debut, which that's a big metric in itself, and she could ride off into the sunset with her tour

because I do not think Cardi B likes to put out music. I believe she was forced to release this album. This album was coming out with or without a rollout, a rollout. And like I covered back in August 20th, 20th, when I dove deep into Julie Greenwald stepping down as Elliot Grange takes charge, takes charge of Atlantic Music Group. I specifically broke down why that is. So if you wanted to look that up, just type in Julie, Greenwald, analytic dreams with the Z and the shit pop up. So anyways, my coverage of that basically is not changing at all.

I believe Cardi Beebles Forrest and her old ways of getting around actually releasing an album is not working. Y'all could call Atlantic insensitive for not letting that be the reason why she takes a break. I could probably assume what I'm talking about. but now Atlantic Music Group is dropping this album with or without a marketing rollout from Cardi but to be fair Cardi B still gave a pretty solid rollout as far as going in the streets of New York saying that she's doing pop-ups I think she had a pretty solid rollout and of course her marketing scene behind the scenes got her in front of people who notoriously impacted masses pun intended as I think there's a

Cardi B interview out right now with a I forget the artist I don't want to say the wrong name I don't want to say the wrong name so Cardi B we already played the snippet as far as her and Gail King but then she also did a conversation with Kelly Rowland that's like 38 minutes that was released two days ago and it was released on Spotify so you know as far as being on CBS as far as being on Spotify as far as being on today with Jenna and friends safe to say that she is laying the groundwork as far as being in front of the masses so they go out and either purchase her album or listen to it and i think that's going to end up with her having a number one debut but i think it's going to be far from the invasion of privacy 255 000 first week which you know would still be a dub if she goes number one in my opinion so

with that being said that is the overall coverage i have for carty b's album obviously we're going to get into it more and more in depth when the album when the album actually comes out but of course fast forwarding from that i do want again to some interesting features about this album so let's do that starting with janet jackson right now i love cardie b and you oh my god i'll be so much fun she's funny i love you know i love how because i like to sit back and laugh and watch and she's just silly and loud and she's not shy and i love that about her i've never met her i've never met her her, but I've seen her on television, and she makes me laugh. Ladies and gentlemen, that was Janet Jackson talking about Cardi B.

Now, you're probably wondering, why did I play that random snippet about Janet Jackson talking about Cardi B? Well, I'm glad you asked. When it comes to Cardi B or her album, Am I the Drama? Guess who's featured on it? Yes, ladies and gentlemen, Janet Jackson herself. And, to be fair, I don't know how in the world I found this Snapple fact. my journalistic due diligence can never be questioned as Cardi B becomes the first woman ever

to have Janet Jackson featured on an album. Now, safe to say you don't get facts like that anywhere else except for notorious massive fake, but you know with that out the way. The main thing I was wondering to myself is this is a random collab. How in the world did this happen? And I look it up and then Janet Jackson is a huge fan of Cardi. And of course, as far as in her career, she's pretty withholding as far as her musical offering so to get janet jackson on an album such as this is very uh poignant in itself because of course

we're going to go through the other features in the second we're going to get into uh selina gomez being on the album but focusing on janet jackson being one of the confirmed artists on the album she's alongside selina gomez lizzo making the stallion which is not a new making the stallion feature is wop so it's one of the older tracks because i think meging the stallion and carty b is beefing currently but you know I don't want to be a chatty-patti, right? Even though I just said it, see. You guys. See, that's the problem.

Anyways, along with Kalani, Samu Walker, Tyler, and Cash Cobain, which, you know, to focus on Kalani for a second, you know, I got a little distracted. Do y'all know, Kalani has a specific track titled Folded, and she is doing phenomenal on the charts to the point where Folded is the 34th most played track in the world. Now, I know it is very ironic because a lot of people would like to vote out, my phone. You guys. See, that's the problem. I got to keep this a PG stream.

Anyways, I mean a PG podcast. Let's get back to all saying. So Cardi B's feature list as far as her album is very indicative of the quality level, in my opinion, and what the effort is as far as being put forth. Now, the marketing rollout is another thing. I believe her going and announcing her being pregnant right before her album is definitely her decision as far as letting people know when she's pregnant and things of that nature. it definitely helps out that is right before her album as far as engagement as far as eyes i mean she's

been trending this entire day so now if you're looking at that announcement and that being the biggest engagement factor amongst her being on CBS i mean she was on um what was her name uh she was on kelly rollins uh well it was on spotify's platform but an interview with kelly roland um Cardi B revealed if she would get married again on today with Jenna and friends like she's just answering all the questions in the world right in the biggest engagement piece is Cardi B announcing she was pregnant which of course you know it's her prerogative but I think it's very interesting coming right before the album because no matter how you get the eyes some say all engagement is good engagement so as far as the marketing rollout I think Cardi B had a pretty successful one as far as

getting people to know along with her being pregnant that she's putting out an album. So the album is 23 tracks and already covered the album in depth. So if you want to hear that, just type in, Am I the Drama, Analytic Dreams with a Z and it should pop up. I go in depth about how I feel like the album's going to perform. But now, after getting into Janet Jackson, let's talk about the other interesting feature off of the album, which is Selena Gomez. I really feel like my album have a little bit of everything, like a little bit of everything.

It does. Yeah. Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio and just so you know, you're welcome. But let's get back to this. Let's focus guys, got focus. You have pop. Yes, the Selena Gomez record. Yes.

Oh. That's what we're talking about today. Hold on. Time out. So I'd just like to announce that Cardi is singing this record, ladies and gentlemen. And not always. one song i don't know chorus for just one like she she pops up a couple of times and i was like oh okay cardi as far as kelly rolling giving you in the cameraman know what he's doing but

that's a whole discussion for another day you guys see let me get back on topic so as far as kelly roland giving carty be a compliment as far as her singing at first on the album i think it's genuine now obviously you know it may just be pr-talk but i do believe if a singer actually goes out the way to give you a compliment as far as you're singing efforts on the album. Cardi B may have did some on the track with Selena Gomez. But anyways, let's keep listening to the interview. Then it comes up again.

I was like, oh, okay, Cardi. So she just tapped into her vocal zone. Like, when did that happen? Was that in, like, when did that happen? Because you ain't had that all my fault. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hopational. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. Like when I feel like I could sing something, Because there's not a lot of records that come by my desk and it's like, oh, I feel like I could hit this melody. I feel like I could do this little one too. I feel like, oh, I could do this one too. I'm going to try my best to do the one too. And I did it.

You did. You did. All right. So anyways, this is the interview with Cardi B and Kelly Rowland. For those who didn't know what was playing through your speakers, well, earphones, whatever. But at the end of day, Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio. Because Cardi B just had a whole entire 36 minute interview.

Yeah, 38 minute interview with Kelly Rowland on the Spotify platform on YouTube. And then, of course, you went on CBS morning to talk to Gail King to announce that she was pregnant. But the main thing I was wanting to focus on along with, you know, more in-depth coverage of her album, is essentially Cardi B and her list of features that was revealed. now if you don't know she released a plethora of features to be on this am i the drama

which is very interesting because of course now only do you have Megan the Stallion not only see if I can find this frankly um why does Cardi B twerk pop up when the world

your eyes ain't even where what do people be searching anyways um and then because we're on Twitter so it's not my searching you know just in case y'all wonder you know hold on now

you guys see that That's the problem. Anyways, the feature list that I was looking for, let me just go on the IG. Shirley she has on IG. Yeah, here it is right here. Why does it pop up? Hold up.

Try to be a W-Tic guy. I don't know why it's happening. Okay. So who's the drama? As you can see right here, this is the entire list of features. So you have Cash Cobain. That man everywhere, ain't he? If he's on a Drake sample, which, to be fair, you know, side tangent.

Drake has his most popular track out right now. And guess what it is? is the somebody loves me track featuring cash cobain so for everybody you know talking bad about that somebody loves me remix why are y'all streaming it you know i can never understand you know it's like if y'all don't like something why support it y'all say i hate drake there's somebody loves me track from drake parted parted next door in cash cobain it's the most successful track currently in hip hop come looking at the list yeah it's the most successful track in hip hop period so i just don't i don't know how that works but um actually uh let's get back to

Cardi B so that's a little Drake's on Tension you guys see that's the problem so who's the drama features list you have Cash Cobain you have Janet Jackson Kalani Lizzo Megan the Stallion which if you don't know is from the track Wop I will say that I believe Cardi B and Megan the Stallion is beefing now obviously my sources could be I made it up but let's just say I don't think I did so the Megan the Stallion being interesting on this list because I thought that was beefing and he come to realize it's WAP that was already recorded a while ago so that's very interesting um and then you have selina gomez you have some walker you have tyler and they are probably wondering to yourself well why would they be beefing and making the stallion is commenting hard emoji uh hard emojis

under her picture well ladies gentlemen you i mean this is one of the biggest marketing opportunities and if carty b has no reason but to put your single on her album because wop is probably her most successful track of all time actually let me look let me see so wop is actually I like it track is his most successful track of all time. Huh. Now I like a track is hard. But anyways, a lot of tracks off invasion of privacy is hard, but that's besides the point. WAP being her second most played, her most popular track of all time made it to where it had

to be on this album. So why not just throw your name up in there and throw hard emojis to get marketing on your actual account? Because you know, she has to use a track that you're attached to. So it's not like you can find another WAP. You know, a WOP is really a once in a lifetime type of track. I mean, it had Democrats and Republicans coming out to say this is wrong. This type of music is just salacious garbage for our kids.

Like, it had them violent, all because Cardi B and Megan Nostalian was trying to tell y'all that they had some. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? Anyways, getting back into Salina Gomez. If you don't know, Selena Gomez also had a track with Cardi B back in 2018. titled Taki Taki Taki. So if you want a little inclination of what it sounds like

to hear Cardi B and Salina on the track, well, guess what? 2018, they already did it. And it was a huge hit as far as Taki Taki Tiki Tiki peaking at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100. So that track out the gate was a huge success, which makes this crossover move for her album make even more success

because her second ever collaboration post Taki Taki Taki makes it so that you would think they would replicate that same. success so selina gomez carty b being on this album showcases to me that the imaginary players track that came out was really cardy trying to get in her rap back i think the album is a complete opposite like you heard with the interview with kelly roland i believe she's going to be singing more these are very interesting features because of the fact i believe she's going to be singing a lot i don't think there's one rapper besides making the stallion and that's an old track off of this album so now you're

looking at it and you kind of start to summarize that the entire album is going to be more singing from cardi so anyways uh that's all i wanted to talk about that's the main thing because of course when you when you look at um carty b when you look at the way that she just goes at her musical creation you come to find out that all of these puzzle pieces are starting to come together i believe the album's going to be phenomenal when they eventually releases but i definitely want to give it i definitely wanted to dive into the two most interesting features on the album so that's why we talked about janet jackson that's why we talked about selina gomez being on this album so if you want to listen to those specifically as far as the janet jackson one just type in janet jackson analytic dreams

with a z or if you want to hear my overall coverage of cardi b's album and my the drama just type in cardi b analytic dreams with a z but with that being said that is the pre-album drop coverage of Cardi B's and my the drama so with that being said click my link sure in my bio let me know one of my social medias what do you think about my Cardi B coverage in general as far as before the album drops and what do you want to hear the most as far as Cardi's upcoming album am I the drama dropping tomorrow pop out brand new body like I'm Cardi and this is a PG podcast so of course we're going to take out the provocative words I'm giving bell out like karate and she even did did the karate atlip

Busted for my man Hold up now pause You guys I guess in her case it isn't Like it's a hobby Can't be on this What? Because I be on this

I don't understand The provocative nature of these lyrics So I'm just gonna leave you like that G lock in my hip I walk around with a switch I wonder what type of flow that is It almost like that's Abraham Joseph Flo. Hold on now.

Ain't that man, anyways, with that being said, Cardi and Lotto have released a remix track titled Er Time. Now, ladies and gentlemen, but then you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? This track is phenomenal. I love the remix. I love the way that Lotto came in on the track. And of course, the way that she's rapping, switching vocal inflexions,

I think Lado definitely realized when it comes to Cardi B, you better show up, especially every since. single time you're on the track with her as it's going to sell a lot and you're going to have a lot of eyes on your particular verse so you probably want to go out of the ordinary to make it higher quality than you usually do you may have to do 50 to 60 different takes because of course this is probably going to be the biggest engagement for your verse that you've received in quite some time because i don't know if y'all remember not too long ago and this is not like a bashing Lotto segment because of course I'm a huge fan of Lotto I think she's one of the greatest

artist we've ever seen right so with that being said with Lotto and Ice Spice their track titled Gat I think I'm saying it right when that track came out and they ended their nearly was it two year beef to put out the first ever collab track I'm not gonna say it was a flopposaurus Rex I'm just gonna say that it may have been in Jurassic Park but then you know what I'm I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? So with that being said, the main thing I was wanting to get at is this specific track being a standout, in my opinion, because of Cardi and Lotto, giving very infectious verses to the point where I can see this being played everywhere.

I mean, this track is a straight up anthem. So if you don't know, it's the Irr-Tom remix as Cardi B put on her Instagram. They didn't have a video or anything, but she just put up a picture of Lotto and said, am i the drama er time edition is out now featuring the hottest mama sota from the a and then she added lotto so when it comes to that i do believe carty is pulling interesting marketing moves and deservedly so because she's put in a lot of groundwork to pull this one as far as pulling out a very lyrical rapper as far as lotto in the grand scheme of things in the women rap game right so now what they'll with them having yet another remix because if you don't remember they also

collabed last time for to put it on the floor again remix I think that was yeah so that was a lot of track and then Cardi B hopped on that track and it peaked at number 13 on the billboard so now I was going to get into a little future chart predictions because of course over here in notorious mass effect we we covered analytics to the point where we definitely gonna get to the bottom of who has the most notorious mass effect you know what I'm saying Shepard. All right, my fault.

So anyways, with that being said, safe unequivocally is the most successful track off of Am I the Drama, and that's featuring Kalani. So that specific track is set to do, well, it's set to be the 20th most played track in the world. And these are future chart predictions for October 4th, so it could change, but it won't change that much as far as future chart predictions. And then you have Magnet, the second most played track off by Ami the Drama. That's the 37th most played track in the world.

and then you have Pick It Up featuring Selena Gomez. It's set to be the 39th Dead featuring Summer Walker with the Nicki Minaj disc. But you know, we don't need to talk about that. But then, you know what I'm saying? That's supposed to be the 43 most played track, Pretty and Petty, which is one of my favorite tracks off of the album. I mean, I think that's definitely fitting for Cardi B as far as her bag and the way she was getting that people on that album.

But anyways, Pretty and Petty is the 44th most play track. Hello is the 47th most play track. Bodega Batty interestingly enough is the 52nd so it's one of the more popular tracks out of the entire album Then you have what's going on featuring Lizzo being the 59th man of your word which is the 66 Salute which is the 71st Shower Tears which is the 75th and then of course you have er time Which is receiving a remix for Lotto that's set to be the 77 so it's not like Cardi took Lotto to put her on a already popular track I think Lado's gonna help out this track more than she's probably going to get credit for anyways our time the

original version is the 77th well slated to be the 77th better than you featuring cash Cobain is 80 is set to be the 80th most played track principal featuring janet jackson set to be the 87 on my back which is definitely one of the most gut-wrenching x tracks we've heard in quite some time I don't know if an ex had put out a more gut-wrenching track in the past three years, ladies and gentlemen. You guys. See, that's the problem. If you listen to the lyrics and you realize who she's talking about and then it's not offset, you kind of realize, hold up now. I know Offset was just listening to that doing a whole Tyrese impression because what more do you want for me?

That track is insane. So those are all the tracks that's set to be charting on Billboard Hot One. and once again that's a future chart prediction so it could change but ultimately those are pretty on the nose as far as as as far as chart data so when it comes to cardy she's overall set to do 205,000 first week and that's the highest projection so at first people were coming out as far as different sources saying that she was going to do around 129 to 150,000 first week I guessed and I projected that she would do around 170 to 190 and of course on my tic-tok that's one of the clips that actually went up on my tic-tok i mean not went up but went viral semi-viral i actually did pretty well

oh before i was playing it but um that came out when did that clip come out that clip come out that clip came out a week ago right so i feel like i was pretty on the nose because i basically said that she's probably going to do 170 to 190 000 warner currently has 18 percent of the into 190 000 first week Of course. So that was a little flash in the past. Y'all can't see it, but that was me in the past. So a week ago, I was basically saying it was going to be 170 to 190 first week in the highest projections. It's set to have Cardi out 205,000 first week. So safe to say, I'd be on the nose a little bit as far as what I'd be talking about, you know. So when it comes to Cardi B, I do believe she's a big enough artist to not flop, but also putting out good music, I think helped to get to that 200 mark and 200 metrics. because at first it was looking like it was going to be 120 to 150 and i think the word of mouth

because i don't think anybody's out here saying the album is bad and definitely not trash but people are singing the praises for carty because the album is really good so now people are starting to say okay i'll give it a try and then now i think that's what bumped it up to the 200 metric but that's the highest projection we'll see what it officially does uh about it by probably not this time next week but probably about like monday or tuesday we'll have the official numbers but it is looking to be a 200 plus thousand um first week sales for cardi which is a huge monumental accomplishment especially for being away for like what six to seven years so coming back to the lotto track make sure to click my link to my bio let me know one of my social medias what do you think about

the carty b featuring a lotto remix on the urb time track and if you've listened to the album am i the drama what is your favorite track and do you believe that Cardi B at this point in time is one of the biggest hip hop stars in the game Now of course I want to say I told you so Because I love Cardi right And you know as far as starting off

My coverage of Cardi sales like this You already know that the Cardi Hive is going to be upset But then you know what I'm saying? I was like damn look at the state of hip hop Like what's going on? But I'm here to tell you that I am on your side You know what I mean I'm part of Cardi Hive is going to be gang what they say bard gang i'm not even the blood you know i mean i'm a whole civilian out here

screaming barter gang you know what i'm saying anyways let me and say and of course i'm part of nicky hive you know as far as those particular fan bases they're beefling blest and crips so when chart data which you can see right here on analytic dreams video on spotify you know we can't do fake news around here is projecting that cardy b's am i the drama is aiming for the number one debut on billboard 200 with what is that 125 to 150 000 you this first week but also it will mark Cardi B's second consecutive number one album now ladies and gentlemen this is why you should follow me on social media because I've been put out this clip talking about Cardi B's album sales predictions and this is what I had to say

and Cardi B is one of the biggest hip-hop stars in the game so I'm not saying she's going to flop selling like 70 or 80,000 first week I predict that she's going to do around 170 to 190 thousand first week but then you know what I'm saying I was like damn look at the state of hip hip hop like what's going of course I'm open to being wrong but as far as looking at it uh looking at the track list right now since 23 it's 21 tracks including up and WAP so 23 warner currently has 18% hey first of a shout to y'all who's been commenting on this clip but I like this right here somebody put up the clip so am out of drama by carty b is projected to debut at number one on billboard 200 chart with 125 to 150 units so

It's almost like I know what I'll be talking about. But then you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like what's going on? Now of course, there's a lot of reasons why this is the case. Do I believe it would have sold this amount if it wasn't good in music? That's why I said the whole under 100,000 metric because I believe if it wasn't good music, it was going to sell even less than what I projected it to do. And even what I had was a higher projections than what chart data is showing.

To be fair. There's a lot of smoke and mirrors behind the same. scenes to the point where her label because if you don't know cardi B is under Atlantic which is under Warner right which Warner currently has 32% of the music market share so if you look at that and then you look at what Cardi's gonna do it pretty much behooves them to help Warner out on the overall market share because UMG currently has 53% right so invasion of privacy did 255,000 first week in sales So the reason why I was saying that she will sell around 170 to 190,000 first week is because, one, I do like Cardi, so I didn't want to low ball her.

But at the end of the day, when you take a seven to eight year hiatus, you come to find out that maybe you're just not that serious about your musical career. Because there's not too many artists that could come back and replicate the type of hype that you had as far as your, I'm not going to say first ever album, but your first ever album under QC, the label, right, in it winning a Grammy. and now you wait seven to eight years to put out another body of work i don't think a lot of people are really receptive to that type of hiatus unless you're like a riano or michael jackson type of artist so anyways i say all that to say i have listened to the album and guess what it's phenomenal i think the album is tremendous i like the way she's going at uh offset i like the way that she's going at certain women in the rap game i mean she really had a lot to say on this album which to me makes it a solid body of work to the point where

I was thinking to myself, I was like, wow, this is one of the best albums I've heard of the year and obviously not. There's a lot of lines that she has that you can just feel like it was written to be delivered in a way and she wasn't able to actually execute on certain lines. And that's only certain lines, right? There's this one line in particular that stands out

where she says, I'm like a Dalmatian. I'm like a Dalmatian or something like that. Like it's my spot forever. I'm like a Dalmatian. Whoever wrote that, pretty sure did not intend on the execution to be the way that Cardi B delivered it right and no uh as pergents on Cardi I think throughout the whole album she's definitely giving a lot of quotables that's just one of the lines that stood out which made it you know for me a lot of the rap albums

that I have in my top five is the clips is Russ those are master class lyricists so if I'm looking at Cardi B's album like a hip-hop album and when you have tracks like imaginary players players when you have tracks like killing you H-O-E-S is a PG podcast but and then you're really cementing the point that you're trying to get across some lyricism type of energy now you have to start judging it on the top lyricism in the game which I think is unfair but when you do tracks like imaginary players you're putting yourself in a box that you just cannot compete in but when she makes when she has the tracks like pretty and petty on this album check please please principal those pick it up all of those tracks are specifically Cardi B's bag and it's all over

this album so that's why I look past those lyrical blunders because the whole album has enough of the strip club anthems that I believe that Cardi B needed to deliver I feel like she delivered with this album now as far as the sales I already told you when it came to rap and hip-hop they're having a hard time on the charts right the best performer in hip-hop currently is Drake and his track somebody loves me has been out but his remix with cash cobane is currently the 27th most played track in the world now of course the next artist that we can look at is big x the plug he his most popular track is currently the 32nd most played track in the world featuring bailey zimmerman so you look at big x the plug you look at drake i mean i guess if you want to count size seven

being just backpacked by scissor because if you look at the charts very interesting how none of the Kendrick charts are left on the how none of the Kendrick tracks are left on the charts i wonder why that is but anyways that's what sounds the point so says that says that's just backpacking this man on the billboard charts so if you look at it every track that kendrick has on the charts is literally with scissor and actually there's only one right now which is luther and guess who's on it's scissor and if you look at that particular fact there's not a lot of hip-hop artists in the top 20 top 30 at all so when i look at cardi b cell and i give myself predictions it's going off of that fact it's not trying to say that she's not a great artist.

She's just looking at the current landscape of hip hop in 2025 and saying that taking a seven to eight year hiatus is not going to make people come back to your music like you think they would. So with that being said, that's the main thing I wanted to get into. The best performing track off of the album, I believe, is Magnet. I'm trying to see if, uh, no, no, it's, it's, uh, safe and magnet. It seems like safe and magnet. is the best performing tracks off of this album currently. Don't quote me on that, but I believe it is.

So Safe and Magnet seems to be the best performing tracks off of this album. And Magnet is straightfire. As far as Safe, oh, that's the one featuring Kalani. Y'all know my favorite basketball player is Carrie Irvin. I don't know why I wanted to just throw that in there. Just as random side tangent. But as far as Kalani, you know what I mean? Drake said the best, you know what I mean?

Hold on. Y'all know what drop a mother play. I got to extend it for this. because I didn't want to spend too much time on this. But as far as Kalani's track folded, I say this all the time because I'm a huge fan of Kalani's. I think Kalani's one of the greatest artists that we've ever seen, right? So with that being said,

Kalani, here we go. Yeah. Kalani has the 34th most played track in the world with her track folded. And it just makes me go back to this clip right here. We'll fold that up right now. Every time I see the sales of Kalani's track folded, I've just reminded on how everybody looking at Kalani.

Don't get shot now. We'll fold that up right now. Now that being said, that's basically what I want to get into. So now, let's transition because I did want to touch on both of the best performing tracks off of the album. So now let's get into Safe featuring Kalani. Let's get into the other track, which is Magnet. Now let's talk about this hating.

What? Hold on now. That's a PG podcast. Anyways, we're going to try our best. Let's talk about this hating person. ungrateful person I don't care I met somebody got to say it

person fake friend clown on the neck kick your friend while she's down your loyalty depends pull you around hold on now

back door H-O oh no that's disrespectful you guys hating on the low you shady you've been trash since birth

mama didn't want you Brenda's baby and then i came and say the rest but then you know what i'm saying i was like damn look at the state of hip hop like what's going that's not it ladies gentlemen that's not it she literally said something else she just mad she got a person she'd be sharing bags with not a little oozy smoke sad damn history my person which is offset may cheat but at least i don't stick no what hold up now Now, Cardi B just exploded on this track title Magnet to the point where it's one of her best performance tracks off of her album. Now, who would have thought that Cardi B going at JT and seemingly Little Uzi?

Because who else would JT be attached with romantically other than Little Uzi? Right? Y'all let me know. So, little Uzi catching random, the most randomest astray because Cardi B's going at JT. I'm pretty sure that Cardi B don't even beef with Lil Uzi like that. But after this line, it's up. I mean, a little Uzi, unless, you know, depending on how you, hey, hey, you guys. Y'all heard Kanye say more wilder things, right? He said crazy things in society.

So, you know, however Uzi gets down to each his own, you know, everybody is, you know, on planet earth, you know, you have a lot of free will, right? And you do of that what you will. And at the end of the day, I'm not here to judge. Just stay in your lane, brother. And obviously, I don't think. that's true uzi respects being outed like this to the point where some would say it's time for a rap battle oh no now what in the world who in the world just came out of all right

right rap battle anyways basically what i'm saying is if j t don't come out with a scathing disc record expeditiously because of course cardi b's trying to sell records for her album so if you wanted to wait after a week and then respond i think that would be best especially because of all the marketing strategies trying to uplift the sales because if you don't know I want to you know your boy went a little viral on TikTok for having this a very interesting take right markets 170 to 190,000 first week of course I'm open to being wrong but so he basically said that he's open to being wrong and then this is why I love the people who engage with my social media clips because guess what dean shout out the dean I'm hit the like button

yeah there we go shout out the dean he posted a picture and said am I the drama by Cardi B is projected to debut at number one on Billboard 200 chart with 125 to 150,000 units sold. And it will mark her second consecutive album. It's almost like I know what I'll be talking about. But then you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? Anyways, Magnet is also one of my favorite tracks off of the album for the simple fact that she's going to everybody.

I mean, she is not picking and choosing when it comes to who she wants to go at. went at j t she went at nicky i know a lot of y'all didn't catch that she went in nicky uh who else she went at bea that one was more blatant on pretty and pretty and petty that one was more obvious as far as her going at uh bea and then of course she went out offset you know offset caught it so many times pause you guys see that's the problem offset caught it straight so many times that i was thinking to myself my brother i mean my brothers had enough you know what i'm saying whole time he just listening to that this is a specific track that I just know I just know may his stomach do all type of back flips let me see um so it's just one let me see if I

can find it oh yeah it's uh it's the track is it with Janet Jackson I don't know if it was that one I think it was Janet Jackson anyways she was basically talking about how all the different I don't know if it was I don't want to play it because obviously I feel like well obviously it would be copyrighted but let me see if I could pull this up right quick because I think it was it may have been trophies I have to get this specifically because she said something very egregious

and I want y'all to listen to this track because when I tell you I was I was taking aback I was like wow I wasn't even in a relationship with Cardi B and that made my stomach turn upside down I was like hold up now so actually let me mute the desktop audio so let me see listen to this right quick I think it's this one is it nice guy let me see this web browser

oh okay I think it's this one nah nice guys well um it's about offset i think it's principal she said something about jesus p okay yeah i think it's definitely principal i ain't gonna lie to you making a track towards your new man and having that in-depth description of provocative activities talking about the jesus piece and the different positions i'm not gonna lie to you it probably had offset seeing this right here It's the funniest clip ever. I swear, it's the funniest clip ever. This is all I got.

Don't take my baby, okay? I've been away from my baby for two months. I'm not doing... This thing because no one's in this wrong. Been away from my baby for two months. Listen to that, though. I didn't find it. $1,000 a month.

All right, there go. What more do you want from me? This is all said listening to a principal featuring Jen and Jackson. Mement, oh, the amendment. Don't take my baby. I'm at $13,000 a month. What more do you want for me? Hey, ladies and gentlemen, you wonder why a lot of people aren't having babies nowadays. But then, you know what I'm saying? Hey, that pain is so authentic. It scared me. And I don't even have any children. You know what I'm saying? I was like, wow, this is the type of stuff men being put through.

You know, I'm going to stick to working. So anyways, Cardi B's track magnet. going at JT was beyond the same. And as far as the particular thing, she had to get off her chest, like she said at the Breakfast Club, that Charlemagne said, you know, no daddy too. You guys. See, that's the problem.

I really got watched at Cardi B Breakfast Club interview. Straight classic. But that's the main thing I wanted to get into. I didn't want to give a huge breakdown because I will be getting into the album in this entirety whenever the episode comes around because, of course, I gave a breakdown. of the album before it came out the way I gave myself predictions and it was so on point I was just letting that live a little bit because you know safe to say that's why I always say you should subscribe rate this five star shirt this is somebody who you think I would enjoy breakdowns of the entire gaming and music industry because you're not being knowing what I'm talking about a little bit and I look back at this TikTok clip and it's safe to say very interesting how it was basically on the nose as far as her album selling around a certain metric so that being said

shout to her best performance tracks off of the album being magnet and then the other one is safe featuring uh kalani and with that being said is it safe was kalani up i don't see kalani at all on here i was right here i can't see all right uh yeah shout to magnet which is the third track third track off of the album and shout out to safe which is the eighth track off of the album being the two best performing tracks off of Cardi B's latest album, Am I the Drama? So that be it said, click my link, sure, in my bio, let me know on one of my social medias, what do you think about Cardi B putting out some phenomenon music, but the sales may not be indicative of how high quality the album is, and ultimately, if you've listened to the

album, what is your favorite track? Now, of course, I don't want to say I told you so, because I love Cardi, right? And, you know, as far as starting off, my coverage of Cardi sales like this, you already know that the Cardi hive is going to be upset. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? But I'm here to tell you that I am on your side. You know what I mean?

I'm part of Cardi gang. What they say, Barty gang? I'm not even the blood. You know what I mean? I'm a whole civilian out here screaming Bartig game. You know what I'm saying? Anyways, that means saying. And, of course, I'm part of Nicky Hive.

You know, as far as those particular fan bases, they're beefing like bludgeon and crips. So, we're chart data, which you can see right here on analytic dreams video on Spotify. You know, we can't do fake news around here. It's projecting that Cardi B's air-minded drama is aiming for the number one debut on Billboard 200 with, what is that? 125 to 150,000 units first week. But also, it will mark Cardi B's second consecutive number one album. Now, ladies and gentlemen, this is why you should follow me on social media is because I've been put out this clip talking about Cardi B's album. those predictions and this is what I had to say and Cardi B is one of the biggest hip-hop

stars in the game so I'm not saying she's gonna flop selling like 70 or 80,000 first week I predict that she's gonna do around 170 to 190,000 first week but then you know what I'm saying I was like damn look at the state of hip hop like what's of course I'm open to being wrong but as far as looking at it uh looking at the track list right now since 23 it's 21 tracks including up and WAP so 23 Warner currently has 18%. Hey, first of all, a shout out to y'all who's been commenting on this clip. But I like this right here.

Somebody put up the clip to Am I the Drama by Cardi B is projected to debut at number one on Billboard 200 chart with 125 to 150 units sold. It's almost like I know what I'll be talking about. But then you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like what's going on? Now, of course, there's a lot of reasons why this is the case. Do I believe it would have sold this amount if it wasn't good in music? That's why I said the whole under under 100,000.

because I believe if it wasn't good music, it was going to sell even less than what I projected it to do. And even what I had was a higher projections of what chart data is showing. To be fair, there's a lot of smoking mirrors behind the scenes to the point where her label, because if you don't know, Cardi B is under Atlantic, which is under Warner, right, which Warner currently has 32% of the music market share. So if you look at that and then you look at what Cardi's going to do, It pretty much behooves them to help Warner out on the overall market share because UMG currently has 53%. Right. So invasion of privacy did $255,000 first week in sales.

So the reason why I was saying that she will sell around $170,000 to $190.000 first week is because, one, I do like Cardi, so I didn't want to lowball her. But at the end of the day, when you take a seven to eight year hiatus, you come to find out that maybe you're just not that serious about your musical career. because there's not too many artists that could come back and replicate the type of hype that you had as far as your, I'm not going to say first ever album, but your first ever album under QC, the label, right, in it winning a Grammy and now you wait seven to eight years to put out another body of work. I don't think a lot of people are really receptive to that type of hiatus unless you're like a Rihanna or Michael Jackson type of artist. So anyways, I say all that to say, I have listened to the album, and guess what? it's phenomenal. I think the album is tremendous. I like the way she's going at Offset.

I like the way that she's going at certain women in the rap game. I mean, she really had a lot to say on this album, which to me makes it a solid body of work to the point where I was thinking to myself. I was like, wow, this is one of the best albums I've heard of the year. And obviously not. There's a lot of lines that she has that you can just feel like it was written to be delivered in a way, and she wasn't able to actually execute on certain lines. and that's only certain lines right there's this one line in particular that stands out where she says

i'm like a dalmatian i'm like a dalmatian or something like that like i it's my spot forever i'm like a dalmatian whoever wrote that pretty sure did not intend on the execution to be the way that cardi b delivered it right and no uh aspergents on cardi i think throughout the whole album she's definitely giving a lot of quotables that's just one of the lines that stood out which made You know, for me, a lot of the rap albums that I have in my top five is the clips, is Russ. Those are masterclass lyricists. So if I'm looking at Cardi B's album, like a hip-hop album, and when you have tracks like

imaginary players, when you have tracks like killing you, H-O-E-S is a PG podcast. But, and then you're really cementing the point that you're trying to get across some lyricism type of energy. Now you have to start judging it on the top lyricism. in the game, which I think is unfair. But when you do tracks like imaginary players, you're putting yourself in a box that you just cannot compete in. But when she makes, when not makes,

when she has the tracks like Pretty and Petty on this album, check please, principal, those pick it up. All of those tracks are specifically Cardi B's bag. And it's all over this album. So that's why I look past those lyrical blunders because the whole album has enough of the, strip club anthems that I believe that Cardi B needed to deliver. I feel like she delivered with this album.

Now, as far as the sales, I already told you, when it came to rap and hip hop, they're having a hard time on the charts, right? The best performer in hip hop currently is Drake, and his track, somebody loves me, has been out, but his remix with Cash Cobain is currently the 27th most played track in the world. Now, of course, the next artist that we can look at is Big X to Plug. but his most popular track is currently the 32nd most played track in the world featuring Bailey Zimmerman. So you look at Big X the Plug, you look at Drake.

I mean, I guess if you want to count size 7 being just backpacked by Sizzler. Because if you look at the charts, very interesting how none of the Kendrick charts are left on the, how none of the Kendrick tracks are left on the charts. I wonder why that is. But anyways, that's what's the point. So Siza just backpacking this man on the Billboard charts. So if you look at it, every track that Kendrick has on the. charts it's literally with scissor and actually there's only one right now which is luther and guess who's on it

is scissor and if you look at that uh particular fact there's not a lot of hip hop artists in the top 20 30 at all so when i look at cardi b cell and i give myself predictions it's going off of that fact it's not trying to say that she's not a great artist it's just looking at the current landscape of hip hop in 2025 and saying that taking a seven to eight year hiatus is not going to make people come back to your music like you think they would so with that being said that's the main thing I want to get into um the best performing track off of the album i believe is magnet i'm trying to see if uh uh uh no no it's it's uh safe and magnet it seems like safe and magnet is the best performing tracks off of this album currently don't quote me on that

but i believe it is so safe and magnet seems to be the best performing tracks off of this album and magnet is straight fire as far as safe oh that's the one featuring kalani y'all know my favorite basketball player is carrie irvin i don't know why i wanted to just throw that in there just as random side tangent but um as far as kalani you know what i mean uh drake said the best you know i mean hold on y'all y'all know y'all know what drop of mother play i got i got to extend it for this because i don't want to spend too much time on this but as far as uh kalani's track folded i say this all the time because i'm a huge fan of kalani's uh i think kalani's one the greatest artist that we've ever seen right so with that being said um Kalani here we go yeah Kalani has the

34th most played track in the world with her track folded and it just makes me go back to this clip right here now we'll fold that up right now every time I see the sales of Kalani's track folded I've just reminded on how everybody looking at Kalani now don't get shy now we'll fold that up right now now that being said that's basically why I want to get into so now let's transition because I did to touch on both of the best performing tracks off of the album so now let's get into um safe featuring kalani let's get into the other track which is magnet you know i think our fellow correspondent when it comes to champagne poppy pause you guys should give us an update on this particular track supposed to be the video for this song drake even hit presser like yo i'm

shooting the video he's trying to what y'all i'm shooting the video for the song we got. Press is hype like, yo, bet, lit. All of a sudden, and look at the time. Look at 10 months. Oh, I'm looking at the time. What's saying? Drake drops because this is all I heard.

Oh, he's stuttering. Hold on, hold on. We got to give him some time. By the way, I heard it back then. All right, there we go. Because Preston told me he had a song with Drake 12 months ago. And he was like, yo, Drake did the video. I'm like, oh, y'all about to be lit.

This man is excited. I ain't never heard this man talk that fast. You got, y'all got to be lit. Yo, he's like, yeah, yo, Joe, Drizzy just did the, just did the video. I said, where? Where? Say, yo, he's in the mall. He did the video for the song. Mm. You fucked up for this. Drake. Drake dropped the no face video. So the video. So honestly, when it comes to this national treasure, unreleased track from

Drake and Pressing, as you've heard from the number one correspondent as far as champagne poppy. You guys. The main thing that I would say is when you look at the no face video, as far as it being the video for national treasure it's kind of a far-fetched idea because he shows himself rapping along to the song now maybe i'm mistaken you know as far as how the process went maybe he shot the video for press a for like 10 seconds and then got to the real music video but throughout the no face video i mean he's rapping along to the actual no face track so it's hard for me to believe that but at the end of day academics when it comes to certain drake information usually is on point for this one i'm a little if you're a little if you're about it as far as the validity now what's not iffy is that Drake did not want this

track to come out so let's go to our other correspondent for Champagne Poppy you guys and see what he has to say as he was directly confronted by Aubrey Drake Graham yo I'm on you don't talk to me like that you don't you don't talk to me like that what you don't you don't say like why you say so sassy Because that's how you... You guys. See, that's the problem. Hey, I told y'all he's a drag correspondent.

Let's get back to it. You talk, you talk so sassy. No, I'm saying, no, bro. Don't talk to me like that. Then you don't... I don't even know what the fuck those kids are. Are you crazy? Oh, you're talking tough.

Fuck. No, I just asked you who they are. What the fuck? Oh, now that's not the same voice he was using with Bobby Althoff. Is it okay? I got my dope on me? I said, what the fuck? It sounds way different.

Talking to Aidan Ross than he was. Can I like... Can I get the song, too? Like, hey, yo, bro, shout it to my bro skin in the background, man. Oh, Jordan. Yeah, we got Jordan and we got condi. Oh, it was good, that's my dog.

Oh, oh, this is my, this is my boy snaggy too, by the way. What the fuck going on? Yeah, I know. Snaggy, what I'm saying? Ooh, that my twin right there on. Hey, uh, we're watching this UFC. Who you got? You got Silver, you got Lopez.

I don't even know what the fuck you guys are talking about it about. I'm in Berlin. What the fuck? That man is not ready for any conversation. I've been talking, anyway. I don't even say that. I'll see you soon, bro. Okay, pull up on me off the tour.

Bye. Bye, Drew. Hey, Drake. Have a good one, bro. I love you, bro. Love you, Drake. You guys. See, that's the problem.

Now, after checking in with both of our champagne poppy correspondents, we have to say. Now, when it comes to the National Treasure Track, it does seem like Drake did not accidentally leak this to the public. Because, of course, this was initially revealed for the public. on Iceman episode one. It was the elevator scene and it was the same beat in the episode two outro. So for me, specifically, whenever I was talking about Iceman 3 and how it was going to impact as far as Drake putting out some scathing bars towards a couple gentlemen, right? The main thing, let me see if I could pull this up.

The main thing I was talking about was that specific track, which, to be fair, he did actually play that track, but he did not go in depth as far as the rest of the track, right? He cut it off and then he played some other track. I forget what it was called. But the later bars, which we come to find out, was taking shots at the Rosen. And there's a lot of other bars specifically on that track that I was talking about. So that's one of my favorites out of the reveals through the Iceman episodes. A lot of people listen to Iceman 3.

And because of that track getting cut short, like Kaizenat, they basically told him that it was straight ASS, which you've already heard what Kaysenat had to say about Drake. but ultimately when it comes to that specific track national treasure we now know it was with pressa but i'm under the assumption that he took that track and added a couple verses to it now of course my sources are i made it up but as far as my sources being i made it up i did talk about how and when iceman three was going to come out so usually when it comes to this specific things when it comes around drake i'm pretty on the nose right so when it comes to this specific track national treasure there's a lot of other things he's he's sending and a lot of other people he's sending shots at

i would compare the national treasure track to a family matters type of track but dissing everybody who's not a rapper right because uh family matters was going at ASAP rick ross who else uh uh side seven um there's some other people already said rick ross I forget who else he went in. He went a lot of people. Oh, Future Metro. Oh, the weekend. How do I forget the weekend?

That's the main thing that got his house. Oh, my fault. You guys. See, that's the problem. Y'all don't even know about that. But anyways, yeah, so he went after every artist on Family Matters. I believe National Treasure will be a direct shot at a multiple people who are not artists, such as the one and only LeBron.

We already heard of the Rosen Desk. And you heard the Kawhi Bar. I mean, that's one of the best Drake lines I've ever heard in a minute. and y'all gonna say i'm glazer but that man said because why we must have been dealing in the spur of the moment because why did we think you could get us a ring but then you know what i'm saying i was like damn look at the state of hip-hop like what's going on i mean that's not even a double triple entendre that's just master class at its finest

as far as lyrical presence now anyways you know y'all gonna say i'm doing tricks on it back the end of day when it comes to another drake bar don't forget this man's the same person who said they want me on uh they want me rip on a t-shirt like i'm hoke hoagin and then you're seeing how that you know that man just works in mysterious ways you know obviously i've you know recipes of hoke hoagin i'm just saying the drake's a masterclass lyricist so anyways uh another drake glaven uh glazing getting back to the national treasure track i'm not going to spend too much time on it because it's not out i usually like to focus on music and technically it's out if you look at you know

the sound clouds of that nature youtube twitter you can find the track in full i mean livingston livingston broke it down like a keel o myly cyrus when he was playing it on his stream so if you want to hear the track in full that's why i'll go to as far as my review of that track i'm just going to let you all know that i believe that track's going to be on the album and it's going to be a family matters but for non-musicians such as lebron de rozen westbrook may even catch a bar and other people right so let's just leave it at that at the end of day we do have a lot of drake information to get into as far as in the future because of course he's about to get off tour if you don't know Drake is currently on the some special shows for you tour with party next door focusing on

Europe and as of September 17th the tour is still ongoing and it ends September 22nd I believe so with that being said that's what I had up for this whole time analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio because I basically have the post up with Drake saying 10 more days left and that was four days ago so 1650 14 13 so it ends like on the 22nd 23rd definitely 23rd I'm no mathematician but I think I got that right right so anyways his tour ends soon and one can only assume what type of rollout will happen after drake is off tour i wonder and of course taylor swift completely took his release day so if you're all wondering taylor swift just boon ganged that release date she's the biggest gangster in the music industry

putting up the biggest numbers she took over october and guess what cardy's about to drop this friday drake really doesn't have a lot of room to work with if you're going to drop this year so i'm thinking i thought he was going to push it up but then i forgot Sabrina carpenter dropped that the beginning of this month not saying that he can't overtake Sabrina Carpenter I'm just saying that Sabrina Carpenter currently has the second most play album in the world and her album's been out for two to three weeks right and so probably let Sabrina have this month and then next month Taylor is dropping so those two women individually take up a whole entire month with the long-term

impact of the albums so I would assume November or December and with that being said December would be a great month I think because you know the Iceman to snow things of that nature it may go along with the weather but uh I believe that Drake was definitely trying to drop in October Taylor Swift got wind of that somehow you know and she basically took over that whole entire month so I thought Drake was going to push up his album safe to say that he's not and I think November and December if he wants to drop in this year is definitely going to be release dates for Iceman but it's definitely finished and at some point he's going to release it sometime soon. It's just T. Swift is actually pulling a gangster move as far as taking the release month from him. So with that being said, click my link to you on my bio. Let me know one of my social medias. What do you think about Drake's unreleased leaked track titled National Treasure with Preza? I can't say his name right. And what is your favorite part about the track? Now we're back again to talk about the go of hip hop, the mascot of hip hop, but also it pains me to say the Aubrey Cairn of the sport we call hip hop but then you know what I'm saying I was like

damn look at the state of hip hop like what's going on anyway so all the dramatic's out of the way I do want to let y'all know that when it comes to my goat you know I don't know what size seven's at but safe to say Drake is still putting a phenomenal numbers on the charts to the point where his most successful track is the somebody loves me track with cash Cobain that's currently the 27th most played track in the world now I know if you pay attention to the hip hop field Ass certain someone just dropped. And when it comes to that, a lot of tracks are going to be dipping because of that specific album making this way to the charts. So as far as future chart predictions, you already know I had to look at it and see what in the world was percolating for the future.

Now, that being said, the main thing I see as far as the future chart predictions is that K-pop demon hunters is still going crazy. And with that out the way, I think it's basically it. There's really no huge changes. I mean, we probably won't know because it's very early. But as insurance, cameraman, Drake, Doghouse is set to be the 99th most plate track in the world. Now, I don't mean to laugh, but, you know, that's pretty hilarious. Safe to say, I think what Drake is doing with this current rollout is not hitting, right? I said the same thing with Cardi B before the album came out.

So safe to say, it could always pull the 360 because when Cardi B. was putting out her singles she was putting out um what was it up wop not wop it was another one it was uh outside i think outside was the one yeah it was outside it was up and in general oh and imaginary players none of those did well on the charts and then you can't forget toot it up which wasn't really a single but you know partisan was basically showing his lyrical exercise uh on the track right which is funny because Cardi B will come out and tell you time and time again that she writes her own raps when in all actuality she doesn't like come on bro I'm up there like at the end of day if you're out here just lying to the public saying you write your own wraps then why do you

have partisan and Toray credited on every single track but then you know what I'm saying I'm like damn look at the state of hip hop like what's going on like there's nothing wrong with having people write your tracks for you that's not the hill you want to die on it's almost like it's the same Hill, you know, I don't even want to, because this is a PG podcast, but let's just say Cardi B's popping a lot of stuff on her album. And this is about Drake. So we're going to get back to Drake in a second. I don't even know how I got off this side tangent. But basically, while I'm letting you all know is that hip hop is not selling like it used to be. Drake is even struggling. He's the mascot of hip hop. If you look at the numbers, he's outstreaming everybody

by far. It's not even close. Right. So if he's struggling on the charts, safe to say, everybody else is going to have the same amount of hardship when it comes to staying on the billboard hot 100 so that's the main thing I was wanting to get into even big X the plug who is technically the hottest rapper as far as the younger croc right his track his most successful track is all the way with featuring Bailey Zimmerman so he sold it so made a whole

country album right nobody talks about it because nobody wants to keep it eight more than 92 big X to the plug so to soul made a whole country album for no reason right as a rapper and his most popular track is the 32nd most play track in the world you would think if you sell out for a country album like that you at least have one or two top 20 or top 10 hits right but i guess not so drake still has one of the more popular tracks in the world and that's not going to change for the foreseeable future because he is the mascot of hip-hop now of course with that being said you know with that glazed out of the way you guys see that's the problem the triumph tower by drake and

Central C is what I'm currently covering as far as the leaked track. And what I do have to say about this particular track is that obviously it's not better than which one. Which one is way better. But to me, if Drake would have took face first and extended that into his own track instead of, it seems like it was two tracks in the one. Which one and face first? If he would have took face first and kept that vibe throughout like a three or four minute,

I think it would have been a better track, a better single. But I don't know what it is. switching the beat so often it loses its luster if you don't do it right because now it feels like two tracks in the one instead of you actually switching the beat because you have something else to say so that being said this particular track triumph tower i'm not going to get into the messiness of it but there's a particular someone out there that you know supposedly broke drake's heart i don't care that much but at the end of the day a lot of people do and i do believe when it comes to drake and that particular girl.

It is a lot of interesting references to her on this particular track. So that's why I'll leave it at. I'll let the OVO stand them dive deep into whatever, if you actually figure out what I'm talking about. As far as the track, it's solid, is not blowing me out of the water. I wouldn't be surprised if this was just a warm up from Drake and Central Sea before they got into which one. So with that means, said, now we're going to go from this elite track into the other one,

which is Drake and Kodak Black, Skies Parted. getting into drake and kodak black skies partage is coming off of the drake and central sea league track triumph tower it's very interesting because if i'm looking at it right i think these tracks are never going to see the light of day so if it for the league in this particular fashion it's very interesting because drake wants to drop his album in october but when it comes to that taylor swift already took over the whole month. I mean, she's literally dropping at the first Friday of October. I would have advised for Drake to drop his album a month earlier. But guess who dropped in September alone? We had not only Sabrina Carpenter, but and we just had Cardi B. So September, October seemingly is booked as far as music.

November, December, we already know Mariah Carey is going to knock a lot of tracks off of the charts when the music starts to get a little bit more festive, right? And not even just Mariah Carey. The other artists who already have Christmas anthems, Christmas classics would probably take a lot of the current music off of the charts.

So it'll be very interesting if Drake wants to go head to head with Taylor Swift or if he just wants to wait and blame the leaks on furthering his project into 2026. So looking at it from a bird's eye view, the main thing I would say about these leaks is that I don't think these was going to be on Iceman anyway.

I believe that these were for all the dogs. If I had to pinpoint it to a specific album, I think these were for all the dogs. And now that you look at it, as far as the lyrical quality, as far as specific references he's making to certain women, that he's been messing with. It all makes sense, especially nowadays,

if you put the puzzle pieces together. But hey, this is not a relationship podcast. So we're going to stick to straight music. Another thing I was going to get at is that Kodak Black and Drake are not on the greatest of terms. I remember when Kodak basically wanted Drake to put out his feature on his album, instead of Kodak putting out a Drake feature on his album. Why? The world may never know.

It's probably one of them glitched for the Twitches that, codec took right so as far as the deliverance of their first ever feature because I don't think they've ever had a track together so for it to come out like this and for it to leak you already know that we're probably not ever going to get a Drake and Kodak track it's probably never going to happen a Drake and Kodak track yeah I'm looking at right now yeah it's never going to happen so leaking this makes all the sense in the world it's very low quality which um it's very interesting I don't know why it'll be low quality if you're going to leak it from your camp. Because a lot of these are under the guise of, oh, it's just like we don't know who came out of nowhere and took the leaks, right?

As far as the Iceman leak that I already covered on my podcast, I forget what that particular track was called. But I think it was, let me see. Yeah, it was National Treasure. That one was definitely going to be on Iceman. It may still end up being on Iceman. That's the only track that I've heard as far as leaks that's 100% going to be on Iceman. Now, how do I know? My sources are I made it up.

But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? But, you know, if you look at my previous coverage of Drake, you can see that I've been getting a lot of things pretty correct. You know what I'm saying? I don't know how. I just get them correct somehow. You guys.

See, that's the problem. So anyways, that's the main thing I want to get into. It's really not a big deal. Drake's camp basically leaked the whole Kodak verse because it's got some. what? It helps for publicity. I know y'all see the pictures that Drake is putting up. He has a very interesting way to keep himself in the media loop. You would think he's just at the top, just off pure coincidence, right? Of course not. This man puts on his calendar. He looks at his calendar, and he thinks to himself, oh, is it time to put out another pick? And guess what? And then this

happens. Is it okay? I got my dope on me? I said, what the fuck? So, Drake. So, Drake, knows exactly what he's doing every single time he looks at his calendar and then he has that circle on a specific date and it's time to give another look as far as to make the media people mad is it okay i got my dope on me i said what the that's why i picture him saying in each one of these pictures because it's just straight of ridiculous but anyways i don't want to spend too much time on these leaks just want to let you know that it is out there on whatever um well i guess not any platform because it's not our dsps and it won't be but uh soundcloud Twitter, YouTube, you should probably be able to find this track before they take it down.

So that being said, because you know, he's still beefing with UMG. Y'all probably forgot about that. But yeah, he's still heavily beefing with UMG. So they're going to take it down at some point. But with that being said, click my link to you in my bio. Let me know on one of my social media is. What do you think about these leaks from Drake as far as Triumph Tower? And of course, as far as Skies parted.

And at the end of the day, do you believe that Drake will release Iceman in the year of 2025. Ladies and gentlemen, Master Splinter is at it again, as not only is Pee Roosco on the list, Gunna, Migos, Pierre P. Thomas, YS.L. Woody, I mean, this, this list goes deep. What, what side seven say? I can go further, I promise. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? And last, but definitely not least, little dirk. and Kendrick Lamar himself.

But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? Now, ladies and gentlemen, I just know that as far as the distract closing arguments by Young Thug, Fonnie Willis was essentially in the courtroom saying to herself. He's been so good. He really has. You have been a perfect gentleman. Young Thug is currently being the perfect gentleman for Fonnie Willis.

And you're probably thinking to yourself. I know that ain't who I think it is. Why are you saying Farnie Willis is appreciating Young Thug at this very moment? Well, I'm glad you asked. Ladies and gentlemen, we're going to get to the disc track in a second, but there's a lot of other details that make this more poignant as far as the highlight of illegal activity. Yes, ladies and gentlemen. You guys.

See, that's the problem. Here is the problem, as when it comes to young thug, if you don't know, this man is currently under a specific thing called a plea deal. Now, what does that mean? You might ask, right? I'm no expert lawyer, right? But some would say that as far as looking at his plea deal based on the YSL Rico, mind you, which is why he's even in the free land being able to do what he wants. essentially the plea deal has a lot of interesting lines such as restrictions ban contact with YSL affiliates or co-defendants right except for gunna and his brother due to contractual reasons right

but then it seems like Woody yak Gotti don't really quantify what the probation line was saying he should avoid and if you don't believe me gonna wreck yeah wreck slug a wreck woody wreck Fuck that niggo obama He's still mad by baby mama But then you know what I'm saying I was like 10 look at the state of hip hop Like what's going on? You know as a law-abiding citizen

It's very intriguing To see people who break the law Fall into the same mouse trap Now isn't that A crazy co-winky dink You guys See that's the problem At the end of the day

That's only one of the reasons I'm saying that this is a huge deal Regardless of how it came out Because of course people are going to say, oh, it was a leak. There's no way Farnie Willis could cook some up to put Young Thug back in prison for a whopping 20 years. Because if you don't know, if he violates his probation, there's a 20 year backloaded sentence. Now, as far as the war, as far as the war in Rat Latina, which a lot of people is calling it, I don't understand how 20 year backloaded

sentence doesn't take you away from acting out as far as looking at the time you could possibly serve because if I'm looking at it correctly right if you're doing certain actions in this disc track which I think it's fire by the way like you know me don't stop me as a law-abiding citizen I am loving the circus but at the end of the day somebody has to call this out because if you're really looking at it from an actual fan perspective then you're probably understanding that uh young thug is risking a 20 year backloaded sentence just so people don't call him a rat but then you know what Now, I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on?

And it's very interesting as he also has an interview with Aiden coming out soon. But besides that, let's put that to the side because right now we're specifically focusing on the disc track titled Closing Arguments. Ladies and gentlemen, Fannie Willis may actually use this track in her closing arguments. You guys. See, that's the problem. Anyways, Exhibit number two. Isn't that how they say it in court?

Anyways, there's another line in the plea deal, right? it says the deal mandates young thug to refrain from advocating glorifying or promoting gang related activity hold up man i was talking if you kill one of my dog shit i'd rather never never any you guys see that's the problem you know sometimes covering the the sport of hip-hop i look at the entire landscape because i covered the entire landscape of music and i just realized you know other genres i don't know if i just haven't dive deep into some certain genres, but it seems like, it just seems like the IQ and the where itthal to not break the law when you're making millions of dollars off music, it's just not there.

I know that ain't who I think it is. So anyways, as far as the deal before I was rudely interrupted by Jeffrey, um, the deal mandates that young thug refrains from advocating the advocating glorifying or promoting gang related activity. Hold on, he said what? Fucking bitch. If you win a nigger twin, they would a trot to squish your keys. Okay.

Pussy, pussy, pussy. Okay, um, I don't know how that would, like, take away from the probation line. Like, there's nothing really in this song that I think could really end him up in. I ain't trying to find no part of spot. I'd rather keep on spinning. If you kill one of my dog shit, I'd rather never end it. Nigger, get your homie touched in it won't cost me JCPenice. Not going to lie.

That is a fantastic line. But guess who also thinks it's a fantastic line? Ladies and gentlemen. Absolutely. What? You don't want to talk to me, man, and you feel more comfortable talking with her? He's been so good.

Okay. He really has. You have been the perfect gentleman. This disc track from Young Thug title closing arguments is proving how much of a gentleman young thug is. He literally handcrafted the perfect argument for Fonnie Willis to put him back in prison. And I never advocate for black man to be put in prison, but we did talk about all the way back, when did I cover this? As far as him being released, right?

When Young Thug was released off of the Yassel Rico and he came out with business as business, we talked about how there were certain things he couldn't talk about. So he was rapping about his luxurious lifestyle, staying away from the gang activity and alluding to any whacking or slime or taking people out. And it just so happens that the war in Ratlanta was all it took. for this man to revert back to his old ways which is a it's very much a shame right so now diving into the actual disc track you're probably wondering to yourself why in the world would he co-signed this well of course they are basically releasing this under the form of a leak so technically if they go to court for this that's going to be the argument i don't think it's a great one but hey we thought the w slo riko um counter argument from wissel and brian still was

wasn't the greatest and he still got off so you never know how that goes but 2015 just know they're gonna met young thug and that's when it all happened because of course as far as this specific episode i just wanted to let y'all know that the war in ratlanta is going to go down in the history books for an indefinite amount of time because from a 2015 to 2025 buildup this is almost a drake and kindrick type of buildup as far as a decade worth of animosity and now is bled over into it's spilling out into the to the masses to see what young thug was feeling towards people i mean he was saying all type of things i mean at one point on one of the phone calls he told his manager or whoever that kendrick lamar is too sexy to not be posting on instagram now this is the amount of information

that we have that we know that young thug is saying this on a phone call you guys see that's the problem now there's nothing wrong with a phone call but the main thing was the interrogation back in 2015 that basically had Pee Wee Roscoe in the crossfires as far as the Little Wayne but shooting, right? So there's a lot of things that goes into this disc track that's going to make it iconic. I believe the disc track as a song is fire. I like when people put their personal experiences into the music, but you have to keep in mind when you are not a law-abiding citizen and now there's restrictions to your musical offering, you cannot go around that by saying it's a leak.

but to be fair, Bonnie Willis and them, they've been leaking a lot of information as far as different phone calls and things to that nature. At first, I thought it was Gunna's camp and then, of course, now we come to realize that it really doesn't make any sense for Gunner to expose himself for having fake streams, right?

As far as exposing Young Thug, that's one thing. But if you're going to expose Young Thug for exposing you for having a fraudulent number one, as far as you versus the weekend, all the way back in what was it, 2023, 2022, I forget. But when DS Forever came out, And the weekends, hurry, Don F.N. came out.

And surprisingly, one of the biggest upsets in hip-hop history that we now have figured out is fraudulent, which is insanity, right? Same thing that Drake was talking about with the red button. But that's neither here nor there, right? Fraudulent streams ended up getting Gunna the number one spot over the weekend. And safe to say, Young Thug coming out saying he spent 50,000 for him to get that number one, just is a huge blemish on the entire music industry. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at that. So at the end of the day, when looking at this this track, there's no lyrics up because, of course, you know, I work around a clock 24-7 because, you know, somebody got loved their job, right?

So I don't know what people who usually run the lyric websites are doing, but they just not up to snuff. So on NME plus, for my NME plus subscribers, we're going to be breaking down the song line by line because it's not out on DSPs. It's a leak. So technically, it's not put out by any major label we could cover it and things of that nature. So if young thug goes the route of calling this AI, I think that would be the best argument. And hear me out, AI has evolved so much that that would be an actual argument that you can use if. Actually, it's going to be, it's a stretch. But hey, Brian still cooked up better than that and got thug and had thug walk away free.

So this is definitely escalating the rift in the Atlanta rap community because of course the war in Lat, ratlana is a phenomenal name by the way and essentially speaking the Atlanta rap scene is being ruined as we speak I think the only thing that could counteract this is future or 21 Savage dropping a project or saying where they stand on the matter Atlanta used to be perceived as the most camaraderie type of rap scene in the world which is why they was blowing up right young thug 21 Savage baby future they had hits from all over Atlanta as far as superstars in the rap game. But now, I don't think it's only because of Young Thug. There was a lot of other things that went along with it.

You know, as far as Metro Boomin and the whole thing that he started with Kendrick, some Atlanta rappers, I'm not going to say who, right? And I'm just going to say my sources are I made it up. Some Atlanta rappers wasn't really messing with the fact that they let Kendrick say all of that about the big three for no reason. Because really, if you look back then, there was really no reason. Drag then call out Whitney yet. They were just trying to get him on first-person shooter. Kendrick jumped out the window, said, I hate all y'all.

There's no big three. There's just big me, right? And to do that on a song with Future and Metro on it, when Future is arguably the most influential hip-hop artists in the past 20 years, a lot of Atlanta artists had a problem with Kendrick saying that on a track with Future and Metro. If you're not following me, then you're just going to be lost. I'm not going to spell it out. there are certain superstars in Atlanta who do not think that move was the greatest.

So anyways, with that being said, Young Thug is essentially going to follow up this alleged disc track via an interview with Adid Ross, I believe, Sunday. So September 7th, we'll see if that ends up going into fruition because this discract, even though they're saying there's a leak, this is going to cause a lot of turmoil to the point where Brian still may go bald by the end of 2025. There's only what? This month or this September, October, November, December. There's only four months left in the year.

By the end of the year, I kid you not, Brian still may lose all of his hair, all of his hair because of what Young Thug is putting him through. The things that Young Thug's been saying, the things that he's been tweeting and deleting, he's been crossing the line. He's been really tiptoeing. But the one time he did cross the line is when he had a tweet and delete. I forget what it was. But Young Thug basically came out and essentially, I forget exactly what the tweet was.

I don't know if I can find it. Let me see if I can find it. Okay, yeah, so right here. So Young Thug back in November 2024 deleted his tweet, Dis and Gunna. Stop acting like we friends. He tweeted that out. Stop acting like we friends.

And then deleted it. Why do you think he deleted it? You think somebody got in his ear and probably told him, hey, you have 20 years on the back end, my brother. Do you want to really violate your probation just over a petty beef? I guess so. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop.

Like, what's going on? And then, of course, when, people were advocating for gunna saying it was all part of the plan and then young thug came out and named little uh and named gunna and little baby track says he's only worked with him for troop gunner responds and prototype calling tweet a typo basically insinuating that the november twenty twenty four tweet was really from thug and it wasn't like no hack that he tried to prove like because there's a lot of things he's doing to get around the plea deal he can't really elecute like he would like so he does these roundabout ways of getting his message out there which is

still breaking the law right but with young thugs power in the hip-hop game some would say that he could get away with it we just seen what happened with ditty as far as him and what he's going to get as far as a lighter sentence because he beat the racketeering charges right and he was only I say only he was guilty for the transportation for prostitution for prostitution charge or something like that anyways he wasn't he was founded innocent for the uh the racketeering charges which would have held like life so but young thug he got off similar on similar charges he did have to say why so was a game but nonetheless a huge plea deal was given to him for him to be in a free world and despite of that he still is risking the 20 year backloaded sentence because of the plea deal right

so it's very interesting at the end of the day i don't like getting into just, oh, did he snitch? Did he not? But this is attached to music. So guess what? We're going to cover music. I mean, some would say we may have a... It's time for a rap battle! Hey, hold up now. Who in the world?

Hey, go over there. What? Who's over here saying something like that? Ain't nobody like... It's time for a rap battle! I don't think Gunna's going to respond. And for people who's winning a rap battle, I do believe at the end of the day,

Gunna and Young Thug could have one of the greatest hip-hop rap battles from a sonics perspective, right? Sonically, it could be pleasing because I'm not going to lie to you. This alleged leak from Young Thug, as far as closing arguments, it's straightfired. And as far as him leaking this and basically copying how Fannie Willis team has been leaking information to showcase how Young Thug is out here, basically talking about everybody and the mama.

One of my favorite groups of all time literally had a skit on this. And I thought this was perfect timing because, of course, who else would be? be able to capture this type of energy, except for these people because when it comes to this, I think a lot of people was letting it, um, letting the fact that maybe the government is messing with young thug. They was sweeping out under the rug. And I think it needed to be called out. And of course, y'all know I'm a huge RDC fan and safe to say, our worlds are intertwining

once again as they are right here breaking down how the government is literally leaking the young thug calls to make him look bad. here we go right here shout out to rdc analytic dreams video on spotify to see the video along with the audio buddy talking about ice man anybody waiting for no ice man or drop they're waiting for the spider shit i fuck around and call the whole spider first off the way he's like fast talking if you listen to yonthal calls i don't know how in the world this may be talking that fast i'm like he has all the time in the world no pun intended and he's speaking at two times two times speed like i'm thinking to myself come on man like what in the world you guys see that's the problem this man

This man definitely has the most fluent speech for somebody who mumble raps. But anyways, with that being said, let's get back into it. Buddy, buddy talking about Iceman. Anybody waiting for no Iceman or drop? They're waiting for the spider. She got a fuck around and call the whole Spider-Man. You tell me that's not going platinum first week. See?

That's not touching 100K first week, but drink? No. A drink? Bro, everybody coming there drink, bro. No. Exactly. Yeah, yeah. That could be true.

That could be true. I mean, shit, I got them talking shit about Beyonce. Oh, take that. Hold on. Let me look at this list, but I ain't really look at the list. like that. There's a Michael Jackson disc, RDC disc, all that's funny. A little baby the seventh. Yeah, come.

I know that ain't who I think it is. Kaisanette disc, Chris Brown diss, Outcast, Beyonce diss. I ain't gonna lie, that Kaisen that one. Drake may cook that up himself, but that's a whole not another discussion. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on?

All right, let's keep going. Which I think the Tyler Perry diss would be about. Probably be like, soldier boy in that breakfast club, you know what I'm saying? Stowe for my whole swag. Bar for bar, flow for flow. Me? Beehive, it's wrong.

Yeah, Outcast, Chris Brown. Let me hear that Chris Brown? C.B. need to worry about Genuine, because that's the discussion they have. They're talking about CB or Genuant. Which one y'all are you picking? C.B. or Genuine?

I got genuine. No, you got the speech patterns down in everything. This is crazy. Genuine? That's what a nigga's talking about? I really don't know. I don't think so. But that could go gold in the streets of it.

It's random. It's random. It's random. Bookmark that. Oh, Tupac. That nipu. Tupupac. Put it, put it in it.

So, see, what niggas not understanding is that Tupac shit was fake. He, he, he just an actor. He wasn't really with a gangster shit. He was just, he was just bawled. Man, that nigga just saying shit. No, I get the point, right? I'm gonna finish his eyes. It was only like 33 seconds left.

Oh, nigger, too pop talking about was being a thug. Oh, I got one that's gonna go diamond. Man, sure. Come on. Biggans can say they're gonna go diamond. What you mean? I'm not here to make jokes work.

I ain't gonna say nothing too much. I'm gonna say too. Everybody can name Michael Jackson's on, but who Michael Jackson put on? No, wait, wait, don't that right now! You can't name one person with Michael Jackson put on. Who, goddamn Chris Tucker? Come on now.

Anybody watching no Chris Tucker no more? That was back of the day's Rush Hour. That's the last time we've seen Chris Tucker. I'm telling you right now that Jackson Pots. They're checking for the Lama 3. Me, women's lab. I love to call back to the other one talking about when people from dangerous cities, but they sound sweet or whatever, the King of Pop stuff.

Anyways, I told you I'm a real RDC fan. Anyways, with that being said, that's the main thing I want to end with, because ladies and gentlemen, people think it's a joke. Whole time, government trying to have young, locked up for 20 plus years so safe to say when it comes to this rat lana mantra and him being perceived as a rat at the end of the day all i want to ask young thug i want to ask geoffrey hold what's this man real name young thug real name i want to ask geoffrey lamar williams the second is being called a rat really worth it to risk 20 years on a back end sentence

but then you know what i'm saying i was like damn look at the state of hip-hop like what's So with that being said, ladies and gentlemen, make sure to click my link to you in my bio. Let me know one of my social medias. What do you think about Young Thugs? The latest distract the gunna and a plethora of other people titled Closing Arguments. And do you think at the end of the day, Young Thug did all that snitching just to snitch on himself and finish his career in the end. You know they have that one? You know they haven't seen six o'clock and I have ate?

You want some food? You want some food? They still don't get me. Do you want some food? Okay. I told him. Yeah, you can't make this stuff. Hold on.

This is my favorite right here. This is my favorite. You're not your attorney. You feel more comfortable talking with her? He's been so good. He really has. You have been a perfect gentleman. But then, you know what I'm saying?

I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? Oh, ladies and gentlemen, what I tell you, I've been having a ball dissecting this two-hour audio clip. like a kilo of myelis cyrus i was sitting back thinking to myself you guys see that's the problem see if you're going to allegedly break the law then when it comes to in a two-hour interrogation clip that you know could surface at any moment because this was back in 2015 right for the alleged shooting of little wayne's tour bus which i've talked about a lot but you know i guess people

don't really care about people committing crimes unless it's somebody they don't like right so anyways all jokes aside i don't really care too much for the snitching allegation which is why i didn't cover it at all i am a hall of fame pocket watcher and ladies and gentlemen after i heard this clip i knew we was about to have a ball you what hold up now don't tell me you you said you said what i never told him that you know cause i just got i just we just got a plug on that what what type of plug you're talking about my boy album. I spent 50 extra gram buying bian bian my fucking stream.

50 what? For you to be weak. The same plus or cash could do it the same thing. But cash like, let it go. Cash is like, snap down. Like, man, let the need go away and ain't something that shit. That is insanity.

Ladies and gentlemen, he said he paid $50,000 for Gunna to get a number one. Now, of course, I talked about this when it initially happened, because I was thinking, I was like, no way in the world is gonna outsell in the weekend. But he ultimately did.

And I think that's one of the biggest upsets in music history as far as when Gunna went number one with, what was it called, drip, something forever. I think it was D.S. forever. Let me see. It was the one with Drake on it. Obviously, you already know what Drake does as far as sales. I'm not saying that Drake helped out because, of course, you already know how he feels about bots. I mean, just as side seven fans. So as far as DS forever, right?

That came out 2022. As far as my, let me see. As far as the weekend, the weekend had an album that came out around that same time. I think it was Dawn FM. Let's see, Dawn FM. Okay, that came out also around the same time because the main thing I was wanting to look at.

Yeah, okay. So both of them came out around 2022. Now, the main thing, thing i was wanted to look at was the first week sales for that because if he said he spent 50 000 i wonder what 50 000 gets you in first week sales so ladies and gentlemen let's look it up right now shall we so as far as hall of fame pocket watch and just know that's what this entire segment is about because we're going to get into little baby's deal in a second funny enough this is all coming from young thug that says he does not snitch and whole time he must have not thought that the

police was listening to his phone call so they could release it to the public because you know as far as him making a mockery out of Fannie Willis and her prosecutors, safe to say they was going to get back. You know, they was going to be pun intended, spinning the block as far as trying to get Young Thug after he made them, or made a mockery out of them, you know, via Brian Steele. So as far as the actual breakdown of DS Forever by Gunna, of course, and Don FM by the weekend,

it's very peculiar once you hear Young Thug say he spent $50,000 for his album to go number one, because if you look at it it starts to make a lot more sense ladies and gentlemen when it comes to album sales by don fm it tracked as far as the first week sales 14 000 actual album sales and then for gunna d s forever it was 4700 so 4,700 but where it gets interesting is the total units as far as first week sales d s forever sold 150 000 for first week and don fm by the weekend sold 148 000 first week so you're probably thinking what is the what is the difference between young dog paying 50,000 how did he ultimately surpass the weekend if he if the weekend basically more than doubled his album sales

in actual units when it comes to the physical purchase right if you look at the streaming equivalent units gonna die as forever did 144 000 which is a 193.5 million on-demand streams the weekend album Don FM did 131,000, which is approximately 173.04 million on-demand streams. So safe to say that 50,000 came in the form of him having more on-demand streams, because guess what? Young thugs said himself that he paid for it. You know, but he did a little deal. He got some little signs for a little niggins from his hood, whatever, whatever.

But he did a deal where he took their money. So they did, they need some young niggas too. any like something 18 like real kids baby the oldest one in them probably be 18 the oldest one now I'm probably about 20 the old one probably 20 it's like five of them they're probably like 16 to 20 it was so funny is young thug really does not do any interview so to have this amount of audio footage leak is insane they don't they did like three four shows in the city so anyways I'm trying to have him talk about the 50,000 again I need the money whatever you want Just on some we brother shit.

Like, I know you can't go nowhere in this world And get no $20 million dollar check From no label, you're not doing, you're not doing numbers like that. You're all right, but she ain't doing that like that. You know, the number one avenue you just had right now, I paid for you to have a number one avenue to do. So he's talking about Gunn as D as forever when battling the weekend on that film.

I just read off the numbers, and this is Yonthea talking about how that happened. You know what I'm saying? Honestly, earn a number one album over the weekend, my boy. I paid for that shit. how much you pay for it I never told him that you know cause I just got I just we just got the plug

on that oh but how much you pay for it though you never earned the number one album I spent 50 extra grand buying bian my fucking stream not 50 extra buying strings for you for you to be weakly

and cash know the same plug so cash could do it the same thing and he said somebody else knew the same plug I wonder who that plug is I bet you UMG just knows that Aubrey Karen Graham is going to put that in his next lawsuit

ladies and gentlemen but then you know what I'm saying I was like damn look at the state of hip hop like what's going on sad day in history when at the end of the day Drake's whole lawsuit is about the inflation of numbers and here is young thug speaking on certain people that they know that you know for some reason

you send a couple you send some money and they rise up on the charts I wonder what other rappers are doing that but you know all jokes aside I'm gonna be honest for a second as far as impacting the masses right and a lot of different artists in the game know this but a lot of people don't as far as on the outside every company whether it's apple mcdonalds disney they have a marketing budget now ladies and gentlemen if you already

have people who support you and now you have a marketing budget what do you think's going to happen right marketing budget could entail a lot of things and that's where i'm going to leave it at because as far as being taken seriously for some people a marketing budget is necessary for the ones who don't want to succeed it's not necessary so do have the information which you will anyways with that being said young thug said he paid 50 000 for fake streams i thought that that was insanity right and as a hall of fame pocket watcher after hearing because i i listened to all of these interviews because of course young thug doesn't do interviews uh so with these clips these audio clips and they're being leaked i wonder who leaks it right i could probably guess who leaked it probably gunnest camp

but as far as young thug and what he's getting at he's basically telling on himself but also revealing a lot of things that we did not know we speculated on especially when we talked about the migos and little baby beef we kind of speculated on megos being upset that little baby is the uh the the newest golden boy and QC as far as him being able to drop whenever he wants to him megos not really doing the numbers of little baby which to this day no matter how successful megos was they definitely laid the foundation for a future QC artist little baby objectively speaking is the most profitable artist QC's ever had and they had amigos for quite some time if you really wanted to look at it before we get into this clip quality

control music is what i'm speaking on the artist little baby megos little yati city girls are the top of that as far as revenue earned they are the top more specifically little baby estimated to have around 100 to 150 value for QC as far as quality control. Migos was set to have around 70 to 100. So it's not like night and day as far as little baby amigos, but there's a significant gap to where now the animosity starts to be a build up between the Migos and little baby. And then the whole offset and little baby thing happens, right?

Liyadi is estimated to have around 20 to 25 million as far as value for quality control. and then the city girls they was actually um set to have around 10 to 15 million so they was actually pretty valuable as far as for QC i know people like to make their jokes but they was actually really valuable valuable for quality control and if you don't believe me as of right now you can literally look up the deal between QC back in february 2023 where QC was literally sold to a south korean music giant Hib and the deal reported around $300 million. Now, ladies and gentlemen, what do you think that money was coming from? But then, you know what I'm saying?

I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? So Coach P cashed out. Hib paid $250 million in cash plus $50 million in stock to P and Coach K who retained control. This sale elevated QC's global reach backed by Hives worldwide infrastructure and school to bronze leadership which is why my coverage about little baby i tell you i love pocket watching my coverage about little baby as far as his album i talk about how it actually performed better than a lot of people thought it would have because if you look at wham that came out this year

it's one of the best performing hip-hop albums as far as first week sales now as far as overall i already said drake kendrick big exa-plug as far as actual longevity on the charts those are the three artists in hip-hop so that's out the way looking at the first week sales. Playbricardy is obviously number one. I've already went over it before, especially, you know, shameless plug to my Gunna breakdown. Just look up Gunna. I talk about the whole industry not too long ago. What was it, August 30th of this year? Yeah. Talk about Gunner. I label it Gunna, aka the biggest gangster in ATL sells 81,000 first week. I basically used that to go over the whole hip-hop industry. But when it came to Little Baby, a lot of people forget

that he sold 100 plus K his first week. So Little Baby's still a big dog. unequivocally but of course the people backing him as far as hive that just spent 300 million if this is your cash cow if this is the lebron of your franchise guess what you don't want him to flop at all because what's that safe for the rest of your artists right so the main thing i wanted to get into was this clip because of young thugs talking about this deal behind the scenes safe to say that he knows the actual number so if he's saying actual number as far as the little babies deal then we can basically estimate that when that deal went down little bit of baby accounted for over half,

approximately half of that deal going through as far as 300 million going to coach K&P. Do you think he's going to get you 75 to $100 million on that deal? Be always real. The way I'm on the phone, I say, what do you think you're going to give you out of that money?

I say, you think you're going to give you $75 million or $100 million? This man, y'all thought loves snitching. He'd do it for the game. You know what I'm saying? He's trying to be like bird and magic. Y'all, my fault. Let's get back into it. He's like, shit.

I'm like, be always real. Do you think he going to get you to send a lot of it? 100 million on that deal be all right he like hey good de bruns off a look off a wham 150 million school the run told wam i want to buy your rights i'm gonna get your hundred fifty million wham said this nigger now i'm cool i gotta bring pete to a me man that niggins good big niggins you know what that reminds me of i thought he was back in the interrogation room he's been so good he's been so good he really has you have been a perfect gentleman

That's how the internet is reacting to all these audio clips. Like, hold on now, he's been such a great gentleman. He's telling us the whole music game. Ain't that about a, you know what I'm saying? Ain't that about a. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on?

If you're wondering, I just dropped my phone. But it was my other phone, so it's cool. I ain't flexing. I'm just letting y'all know what it is. Let's get back into it. They just started from Scooter from School to Brown trying to buy a little wham. He wants to buy a wham out of the deal. Well, how much though?

Well, like, shit. You got to talk to pee. I got to talk to P? I got to talk to P. Nah, bro. It took me how much he was going to make. Pete crossed that, the nigga had red hot,

worst weight. I'm on the phone. Wow, he's just like, man, the nigga Brown, try to have the same deal with me. The same meaning with me.

I tell you that, I ain't, I ain't really doing that without Pee, you know, I'm just silent. What? Man, Pete, go take the,

take the meeting with that to him. And get the jump being done. Dang. I get the bina done for three, four hundred.

For sure. Three, four hundred. Hold on. now that he just said the number ladies and gentlemen that is insane at the end of day when we're looking at this as a hall of fame pocket watcher i'm not going to lie to you little baby being worth this much and then the perception of the internet saying that he fell off if that's falling off i want to fall off tomorrow but then you know what i'm saying i was like damn look at the state of hip-hop

like what's going on if falling off is being one of the most profitable artists from a from the same label they had the megos we're talking about legendary megos run and you still the most profitable on that label and people on the internet saying you fell off that's why people time and time again says that say that the internet is not a real place anyways the main thing i wanted to get into was exactly that i wanted to break down the overall evaluation of qc because i'm a hall of fame pocket watcher and the deal between uh the south korean music group high you know led by scud of brine and of course them buying qc for around 300 million like you know thug just said it was three to 400 million so now as far as a bunch of reports coming out which i talked about in the past

of it being around 300 million now we get another confirmation from somebody who's in the game that's why a lot of these audio leaks is so valuable because young thug doesn't do interviews yet he's one of the more prominent artists in hip-hop history right so getting back into the snitching stuff because you know that's basically enough for my pocket watcher uh segment the main thing i want to say about this whole debacle that's basically a circus on if he snitch did he snitch like all of the the clips from the two-hour video i mean i mean it's hilarious right i mean come on now hold up that he's been so he's been so good okay he really asked you have been a perfect gentleman well you have see look at this so anyways as far as all that and all that hoopla that's how that's

how i quantify all it is this is how i describe it because who in the world wakes up from the 9 to 5 and says, man, I wonder if young thugs nish today. Like, come on, man. You guys. See, that's the problem. Like, it's really not that serious. Let's get to the business side of things. That's why I wanted to break down the little baby stuff because that's a huge lucrative deal

that went down. And those take years to basically construct and break down how much you're going to get out of a $300 to $400 million deal. So anyways, that was the most exciting part for me. But let's get back to what people like the negativity, right? people people can care less about making money let's get back to if young thugs snitched or not so the funniest thing about the snitching allegations and what i would say about it is when 21 savage who seems like the most solid person out of the um the group of gangster rappers right i say gangster with quotation

marks because in 2025 boy i mean if you ain't seen enough information on what ends up happening if you stick to the streets being a rapper then i don't know what to tell you i mean if little dirk didn't tell you if young thug didn't tell you if boosy didn't tell you oh y'all didn't hear about boosy hold let me see boosy arrested so five days ago um boosy officially pleased guilty to federal gun charge what does that mean let's let's see what that means right now boosy is uh pleaded guilty for federal gun charges right and ultimately he was taking to court and i'm trying to see what is the sentence uh let me see what is okay please guilty for okay yeah this is what I was looking for so Bussie is schedule of a

sentencing on November 21st per his plea agreement the government is asking for a 24 month prison sentence though the decision will ultimately be up to the judge they do say that the maximum sentence for the charge is up to 15 years you guys see that's the problem now of course if the government is asking for a 24 month prison sentence I would say 15 years is a lot right so basically what they're saying like two to four 15 years is as is what boosie's looking at just the 15 that's going to run with the headlines because nobody likes to read the details right so people are going to just look at that and just think like all the streets is over which it is low dirk's

going to be locked away for life um boosy we don't know how much time he's going to get a lot of other rappers that you know i just don't want to make this morbid so i'm not going to say their name but you know them passing away due to unfortunate events showcases how if you're a street rapper um safe to say there's only two outcomes right and the glorification of street rappers is is what makes this so intriguing to the to the youth to come up and and repeat the same pathway of either in prison or passed away right aka killed so 21 being the voice of reason talking about this whole snitch debacle because young thug wants to go at gun at 24-7 he basically brought up how young thugs brother is a snitch she's like hold on now you're not really keeping their pee all the way across the

board because didn't your brother snitch yeah oh hold on like you seen you seen your brother pee oh hold on now see that's why i love well pause with the love you guys see that's the problem this is why i like when people with logical minds come into the fray while speaking to gangster people because gangster people have you thinking you're supposed to kill 12 people and then when you get booked for it you're supposed to sit down for all them years as far as 50 plus years time and time again because you know they're not going to run it consecutively right so at the end of day they they make you seem like if you catch all them bodies and you saw me do it you're supposed to sit in there with the same amount of time as me

because guess what that's keeping it gangster but then you know what I'm saying I was like damn look at the state of hip hop like what's going on so 21 Savage is like hold up now you mad at young thub I mean you mad at gunna but didn't your brother do the same thing Man. But you seen your brother, please? Mm-hmm. I love the silence after that.

21 Savage, like, hold on. It's like, he's like, you're not talking, hold on, this young thud, right? This young thug on the other side of the phone.

Yo, you see your brother plea? Oh, just silence, huh? He don't want to, he don't want to respond to that, huh? But have you seen,

you seen your brother, please? Most definitely. Silence. But, but he said you told him do that. Mm.

21 Savage, really. What the little girls be saying? Clocking that T? Only reason I know that, because my sister going to college. They be saying clocking that T, clocking that T. You know what I'm saying? Clocking that T, you know what I? Man, watch that.

He's like, hey, bro, come on, man. We ain't coming with all that logic, bro. You know, we gangster rappers, you know what I mean? We only, what Rallo say to academics? Bro, you're using too many big words, bro. You got to dumb that down. I don't got that what he telling the screen. I don't call you cap.

Got him stomach. and everything young thud don't even know how to address that so his brother snitched um brother came out said oh yeah young thud told me do it as you can hear on a call obviously young thug said that's cap you guys see that's the problem so that's how i feel about the whole gangster situation i believe everything about the gangster rap persona and the ecosystem is fraudulent that's how i feel so when it comes to that i want to stay on my soapbox because you already know how i feel about gangster rappers in general There's a reason why my favorite rappers are like Big Sean, Russ, Drake. Like, I mean, obviously, you know, when it comes to Drake, a lot of people be like,

oh, he acts like a gangster, but come on, man, like, yeah, y'all know, y'all know Aubrey. Y'all know Aubrey, he ain't out here sliding on nothing. You know what I'm saying? So, never went to prison. I don't even think Drake has a mugshot. Does Drake even have a mugshot? Let me see. Drake, because you know all these gangster rappers need a mugshot.

I mean, I think if you don't have a mugshot, your effectiveness as a gangster rapper goes down by like 70%. Let me see. Drake mug shot Drake doesn't even have a mugshot It's like some fabricated stuff Y'all want to see the mugshot that he has This is the only mugshot I can find Toronto police look at this

Ladies and gentlemen When I tell you that was a whole photo shoot With the OVO standum This is not real I don't know why in the world he has this It's funny though Like at the end of day Drake doesn't have an actual mug shot

And there's a reason for that Like if you want certain dollars As far as sponsorships It seems like a mugshot is a necessity as a gangster rapper. I mean, have y'all seen little baby's muckshops? Oh, they'd be hitting like that.

You know what I'm saying? They'd be hitting like... But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? Let me see, this is probably why a little baby was $150 million as far as being the most profitable artist. Let me see.

Is this his muck shot? This is actually his muck shot? Dang! This boy looked like, he did it. I ain't going to cap to you, bro. Look at this right here. Nah, this muck shot looked like he did it. Whatever he was accused with, he probably did that stuff.

I ain't gonna lie to you. Goodness gracious. You guys. See, that's the problem. Yeah, that's the face of a man who did it. You're looking at there like, hey, bro, I did it. And so what? Do something about it. I know that ain't who I think it is. So anyways, that's probably why a little baby's gangster career is so effective. But at the end of day, my favorite type of rap is obviously the rappers who talk about their life in the music,

but it doesn't coincide with killing people and stuff like that. It's all about introspection, you know, evolution, you know, stuff. that gangster rappers i mean you know as far as the brain sales it doesn't really compute so at the end of day that's how i feel about young thug snitching i could care less but that's why i dived into the little baby deal because i think that's the more uh interesting details that came out of this i was not going to cover this at all until i heard young thud talk about little baby's deal and he actually uh gave a cosign and solidified what the rumor reports of so now i had to dive back into what i I was previously talking about in the past

and bring up those numbers again because it seems like young thug is making the correlation. Anyways. I got to bring Pete to a meet. Man, that nigga good thing went called Pete. And you know it's funny, young thugs not even under QC,

which makes me think that this whole interrogation was just a little prep time. You know how you're in the gym, getting some shots up before the actual game? This interrogation room was just the, the warm-up. until until he had a pillow talk with mariah the scientists and like uh whenever this came out and basically let her know what was going on and behind the scenes was really snitching for the love of the game so he's been so good he really has you have been the perfect gentleman so that being

said after covering the perfect gentleman uh i just want to let you know click my link to my bio let me know in one of my social medias what do you think about young thug and him ultimately revealing a lot of things in the in the hip-hop game and just the music industry in general as far as all of the smoking mirrors is going on and at the end of day i mean if you care about it do you think gun's uh young thugs snitched or not pick up the phone yeah taught me a spider taught you everything you know about this shit we for life i see why these niggies end up in gangs like baby i'm sorry i wasn't going to fuck them bidses but wham wham whip up the phone wham wham pick up the phone Wham, I'm calling you on a block number.

I'm calling you. Yo, Wham! That 5 or 4 number, that's me. That's me, Wham! Pick up the phone. But then, you know what I'm saying? Wham! God told us to forgive!

Forgive me, Wham! Wham! Where is Wham? Ladies and gentlemen, Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio because this is straight comedy. Now, like, in general, I said I will only cover the young thugs,

snitching allegations if there was music involved and safe to say there was a lot of music right as far as closing arguments you already know i covered that back september 6 of this year and essentially it was a gunna a woody uh some other people as far as who he was called in a rat and then just so happens now he's apologizing for allegedly the same thing but then you know what i'm saying I was like, 10, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? So when it comes to being the main culprit, as far as the war in Atlanta,

excuse me, the war in Rattlanta, but then, you know what I'm saying? It's very interesting how you go from the war in Rattlanta to an apology tour. You guys. See, that's the problem. I mean, safe to say, everybody received an apology.

I mean, you watching this and listening to this right now may have received an apology from Jeffrey. Because guess what? Not only did Mariah and the scientists receive an apology. Not only did Drake receive an apology. Is it okay? I got my dope on me? I said, what the fuck? Not only did future receive an apology.

21 Savage. Gucci, Maine. And then of course, little baby. And at the end of the day, I think everybody listen to this apology track that is titled man i miss my dogs and they basically said to themselves they do they could care less because at the end of the day little baby looking at his phone ring for the million of time with the name saying young thug and he's saying to himself who do because he wants him to get over it now ladies and gentlemen even though this is essentially music

so that's why i'm covering young thug i do want to let y'all know that this track is straightfire. I have all the jokes in the world for this type of very transparent track getting off your emotions through your musical creation which I think is the best art form

when it comes to music in my opinion. That's always the music I've been gravitating towards which is why my favorite artists are Drake Big Sean, Russ, etc. I love when artists put their real life experiences into the music but then you come to realize I know that ain't who I think it is.

Young thug out here talking all type of gangster talk and then the interrogation calls come out. And not only that, as far as him talking about the little Wayne Torbush shooting in detail to the point where he told the police authorities, hey, take my numbers. But don't tell the world. You guys. See, that's the problem. But then after that, which this one I don't really fault him for it because of course, as far as calls and. It is a jail call, so some people can say you're always recording. But if you're talking to somebody over the phone and your public figure,

safe to say you don't think every single phone call is going to get revealed to the public, which in Jeffrey's case, it definitely dealt. I did. As around August, all type of calls came out disparaging Glorilla, Mariah and Scientists, Drake, little baby, Gucci, May 21 Savage Future. I mean, he was talking crazy to future. but as far as all the jail calls leaking i don't really put too much credence on that because i would assume he thought those were going to be private as far as the interrogation room how strong of a

stance young thug took against gunna which mind you as far as 2025 offering the music gunna has been putting up way better numbers than yonthau right currently the track with bernaboy which is titled wgft i would tell you what a stance for but this is a PG podcast. So that particular track with Gunna featuring Burner Boy is currently the 72nd most played track in the world. And then you have different species, which is

off of Offsets album. And then guess who it has on it? Gunna, which is his most popular track off of his album. So Offsets, most popular track off of his album is with Gunna. But then you know what I'm saying?

I was like, Tim, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? And then you look at Young Thug and Safe to Sefuss. say he does not have any tracks on the charts where which to be fair i always say just because you don't sell the most does not mean you're not making high quality music but if we're talking about consumption amongst the superstars in a hip-hop game young thug has released a whole track after being out of prison that i think was phenomenal to the point where it seems like people have switched up

and showcased in real time how fickle hip-hop fans can be because money on money by young thug and future to this day I think is the most fire track from young thug in a minute right but nobody gravitated towards it why the world may never know but as far as having future on it which is ironically one of the more influential artists in Atlanta but even future Hendricks can't seem to take away the fall off movement that's going towards young thugs the direction so as far as young thug in his offering because he was also on dumb, dumb and dumber. I mean, he came out the gate swinging, right? People talking about all you need the first day out. I mean, technically, he gave us multiple that the world just did not gravitate to. I mean, technically, with the

Wham album with Little Baby, I believe that Wham did phenomenal and a lot of people don't talk about it, right? Little Baby's first week sales was over $100,000. And you see a lot of other rappers struggling to get $20,000 to $30,000 first week. Safe to say little baby has not falling off at all. So when young thug came out of the gate, he basically put out a track with Little Baby and Future titled Dumb, Dumb and Dumber. Guess what that went? Nowhere. And then he put out another track with Future. Money on Money. I mean, if you had a phone call to the most influential artist and you could choose anybody for your first day out type of track, who would you choose from Atlanta? Exactly. Little Baby or Future. Or I guess he could have got 21 Savage. But at the end of the day,

when it comes to these musical offerings, it's very interesting. I mean, he even had Drake offer his business and business album. He opened that, he opened that album up. As far as having Drake, Metro Boomer, 21 Savage, a little baby, he's been offering music. People just have him in gravitating towards it. So I don't like the whole, that's the main thing I didn't like about his interview with Big Bank. Is Big Bang telling him you wasn't hungry enough? I mean, come on now.

I mean, at the end of the day. How many hip-hop superstars do you need on one project to say you're actually trying to put out a phenomenal album as soon as you get out of prison? Because if you go to business is business, right? And let me see if I can find this. I think he spelled this BID. One of the world. See, it's hard, you know, it's hard to pull this stuff up because rappers be spelling stuff like they just didn't graduate out of any school. You know what I'm saying?

So anyways. Business is business. Oh, he actually spelled it right. All right. That's on me. That's on me. So you have future. Yeah, okay, first off, you have Drake opening up the album, the most influential hip hop artist in the past 10 years, right?

Well, maybe even 20. Yeah, definitely 20. But anyways, you know, I ain't trying to glaze Drake right now. You guys, see, that's the problem. And then you have Future, the most influential out of Atlanta. This is how he starts off the album. Drake opens up the album, two solo Young Thug tracks, Future is the next feature. And then you have 21 Savage. Then you have Travis Scott.

I mean, he called everybody. He called the Avengers, Avengers of Hip Hop to Hop on His Rock to Hop on His. album out the gate 21 savage little uzi ver now obviously he was behind bars but at the end of the day he was trying to step on gunner's release which ended up backfiring because everybody's on gunn's side now as we've seen fast forward in 2025 gunn is more relevant as far as his music offerings um like i said with his track with burner boy being the 72nd most play track in the world but then out the gate once he came back out right once young thud came back out of prison um he had his track money on money that released 25th of April and that track went absolutely nowhere so the main thing why

I'm saying this is because I cover music I don't care of anything about the snitching allegations but it's because of your young thug caring so much that he has to clear all this up because it's seemingly is a social distancing order put against young thug because at the end of the day when he's insisting that he's not a rat when he's basically telling Wham, pick up the phone, yeah, it's spider, taught you everything you know about this stuff, we for lifers. God told you in the Bible, the devil would knife you, gave you a couple people, uh, no, you gave a couple people on this case, 75,000 helping with your lawyers and never spoke about it. Now, ladies and gentlemen, when it comes to that, I think it's very interesting how

young thug addressed everything in the world, but the real issue. The real issue is a essentially him not wanted to take the rat label when the definition of a rat label he objectively speaking fits that description especially in that interrogation footage i mean he told the police officer take my number and just don't tell nobody if y'all don't believe me because that probably sounds crazy right we're talking about king slime the the biggest gangster in alanda supposedly right so let me see young thug let me see phone let me see if it's pulls up with his phone. Okay, so Yantah basically

told the police officer, take my number, let me see. Take my number. Let me see if that pulls it up. Let me see, let me see, okay, so he had he has not pulling up. But the whole interrogation

footage is right here for me to let you see this. Let me see. So, not as academics. Let me see. Yonthuk, interrogation, because I don't care anything about this, but since he put out another track basically going on an apology tour, which I think he's the title of the apology tour. You know what I mean?

Post-Ratlanta? Is that what she called? Is that what young thugs you call it? Anyways, let me see if these people have it in here. So, I said, the other way, he was off the whole bird. That's crazy, man.

I always was thinking, like, like, I think his bird fucking with me too hard, and then he ain't, and he didn't like it, because, you know, Birdman, I haven't been with him. word and i was like been on there be small so i'm like so when it comes to that is an hour of an hour and 51 minutes of straight telling from young thug they ain't going to lie to you and as a law abiding citizen obviously i don't care i think he's doing god's work letting the police authorities know what these criminals are up to but at the end of day he raps about street activities so if an hour and 51

minutes of interrogation footage exists which you detailing why certain crimes would happen and the motive behind it some would say that quantifies and and basically it's explicitly fits the description of snitching now once again i don't care but he released music and i just wanted to cover his music and why he's even going on this apology tour in the midst of this seven minute and six second track because the funniest thing to come out of his mouth pause was him asking little baby to answer his phone. I mean, at the end of the day, is the reason why I started off with this drop.

Wake up the phone. Wham! God told us to forgive. Forgive me, Wham! Where is Wham? That's essentially what a good majority of the man I miss my dog's track is getting across. Young Thug misses his homies. And ironically, the track is fire, but the message is seemingly going to be lost in translation because it was only because of you while we took these rat out of rat stances so seriously because of the way y'all turned on gunna and we like gunna's

music we still streaming it to this day like i just listed out as far as the numbers but the streets as a law about the citizen seems like it's a myth now obviously i know the streets are not a myth. But as far as what the internet is looking at, they're seeing if the monetary value, because these rappers have made millions of dollars together, we're going to see if they put monetary value over the street principles. That's the main thing that we're going to figure out with this young thug situation because he explicitly ratted in the interrogation footage. As civilians, we don't care, but they made such a big deal about Gunna. We want to see if they keep that same energy with Young Thug. And that's essentially the only thing.

thing that's holding young thug back as far as his real transparent track if he just comes out and talks about his mistakes i think that would be the best i mean he apologized but at the end of the day he's going to have to say i may have told as far as peewee in his involvement in the little wayne bus shooting so with that being said that's the main thing i wanted to talk about i didn't want to go this long but it's just so much to get into when it comes to young thug i mean i literally title my episode, which is out now, you know, on all on platforms you list the podcast on. As you can see right here, the war in Ratlanta. But then, you know what I'm saying?

I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? Of course, I titled my episode, The War and Ratlanta because of what's going on right now. And it's just crazy how we're still going into this deep into September, well, not deep into September, but, you know, almost at the halfway point of September and we're still dealing with it. So Young Thugs seemingly has a lot to get off, a lot to get off his chest. and it seems like he lost Mariah the scientists,

which if you don't know, Mariah the scientists, actually she's performing similar to Gunna as far as having a phenomenal 2025 as her track with Callie Uchis is it a crime? It's the 84th most played track in the world. And then Burning Blue, which, you know, everybody would be talking about and we're going to get to in a second as far as Gloverilla. Her track Burning Blue is the 42nd most played track in the world.

So if I really wanted to break down the numbers, everybody seems to be doing well as far as Gunna, as far as little baby, as far as the Mariah, as far as Mariah the scientists, it comes back to a certain individual seemingly not gaining the wave of momentum that he thought he would out of the gate and why. I think it's all because of him and his stance on being a rat. Now that means said, click my link tree in my bio. Let me know on one of my social medias.

What do you think about young thug apologizing and going on a whole apology tour? do you care or are you like who do dee do we beat these folk who do we beat them we go forward and at the end of day do you think that wham should pick up the phone analytic dreams video on

Spotify to see the video along with the audio because right now we're playing the trailer for Bad Bunny's announcement for the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show now with that being said that's essentially the trailer for bad bunny announcing that he will be a part of the super bowl halftime show and the first thing i was thinking to myself but then you know what i'm saying

because at the end of the day when you think about the different type of bunnies that the NFL was trying to accomplish how ironic that they ended up with bad bunny you guys see that's the problem now if you don't know what i'm talking about obviously when it comes to the super bowl neither of them will comment on this but as far as reports taylor swift ended up turning down the super bowl and adele and when it gets interesting is when you specifically focus on taylor swift as reports came out that she was demanding certain things that the nfl refused such as payment ownership of performance and promotional rights because if you don't know people people perform on the super bowl stage for free if you didn't know well now you know

But Taylor Swift wasn't having any of that as obviously over here at Analypt, well at notorious mass effect. Of course, for myself calling myself analytic dreams. We have to get into analytics as it was ironically, very dreamlike as Taylor Swift boosted the NFL to approximately $331 million. To the point where merch sales, viewership, media exposure, all of that was uplifted by the one and only Taylor Swift, which is why. I consistently say that she is the biggest gangster in the industry because as far as exposure and engagement, she's unequivocally the biggest artist in the music industry. Now that out the way. As far as NFL and Taylor Swift, viewership, 123.7 million total viewers and it surged up 8% from

2023. And among that, it was women slash girls that helped out that metric majority as 58.8 million women tuned in, which is a 9% increase in the highest ever for women. So when you look at Taylor Swift's impact on the NFL specifically, and then you look at them announcing that she may have turned down the Super Bowl yet again, because they've been asked her, right? If you have the biggest music musician in the world and she hasn't been on the Super Bowl stage, safe to say that she's, you know, the higher-ups at the NFL have already thought about inviting Taylor Swift. She just declined it and diving into it further when it comes to Taylor Swift's

leverage and the numbers that already went over, she was wanting compensation because of her already objectively seeing the metrics as far as how people was turning out to come to Kansas City games, well, the Chiefs games, and of course the NFL viewership in general as far as people watching from home. And when you look at the beauty and health brands that targeted the NFL because of her bringing her demo to the viewership pool you come to realize that not only did taylor swift help out the NFL viewership but she helped out specifically with a audience that the NFL lack right so anyways with the Taylor swift glazed out of the way the main thing i was wanting to get into is of course the details surrounding bad bunny performing at the super bowl halftime show because

when it comes to the 2026 super bowl halftime show we all know that j z is ultimately over the entertainment portion of the NFL. And usually I have the actual title that he has. NFL. So what are they going to say? Like tied in? Hold on now. Pause.

You guys. See, that's the problem. My fault. That was a ditty joke. Anyways, when he calls the Jay-Z, he is involved with NFL as the head of Rock Nation's partnership, which includes producing the Super Bowl halftime show. And under this partnership, Rock Nation serves as the NFL's live music entertainment strategies.

So if you wonder or you wonder why Side 7, I mean, Kendrick Lamar was able to perform the pedophile anthem on one of the biggest stages in sports. Well, now you know, it's not, it's safe to say, and just maybe, you know, my sources are I made it up, right? But just maybe, Drake and Jay-Z might be at odds at this very moment. You guys. See, that's the problem. And when it comes to that, you've had the weekend perform on the stage. you've had Kendrick perform not once but twice because don't forget he popped up on the dr dr dr dr

super bowl performance and then you come to realize that not only did kendrick end up performing the pedophile anthem on the biggest stage in sports but then when you look at j z in general as far as him going out of the way to have certain acts on the super bowl stage it's very commendable in my opinion but of course once you have a performance like that now the NFL steps in they're like hold them now Hold on now. We got to get another artist that's going to be more palatable to the masses. So of course, they went to the artists who they preferred, which was Taylor Swift, which was Adele. And guess what?

Both of them declined. So right back to my earliest sentiments, even though they went after certain bunnies that is considered the baddest, they ended up with Bad Bunny himself. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? So when it comes to Bad Bunny's political and cultural impact, obviously. it's not a political podcast, but whenever it comes across as far as me covering music, I do have to speak on it because I do feel like it's very important.

As one of the main reasons that Bad Bunny did not tour in the U.S. and literally canceled his Debbie Tarrah Moss Photos tour in the U.S. specifically is because he feared of ice rays at his concert. I want to let, you know, sprinkle a little silence in him. So when you come to the NFL, actually letting Jay-Z have Bad Bunny perform at the show. Super Bowl, it's very interesting because the insider source came from Jay-Z's camp, allegedly, and said that Jay-Z demanded that the NFL chose bad bunny after, you know, being turned down by Taylor Swift and Adele. And essentially, he wanted to be and showcased

the proud, powerful and, yeah, the proud and powerful side of the Latinos in America, especially with Donald Trump expected to attend. Now, it's not a political podcast, of course. I'm just laying out the facts so you know exactly what all the surrounding detail is about this bad bunny pick so when it comes to why bad bunny canceled his u.s tour his u.s. leg of the tour and due to fears of ice raids at concerts and then when it comes to jZ's camp because you know somebody's leaking his information obviously jZ's not going to come out himself but he's going to have people speak for him so when the insider sources from jZ's camp comes out and this inside quote which i don't even know how to possible if it's anonymous but anyways quote j z's oh well that this is j z's ultimate flex come february you're talking about bad bunny but they say he'll play for the world with trump just yards away i know that ain't who i think it is so but that being said this would be the seventh halftime show overseen by j z since rock nation partnered with the nfl and going back to j z being over the live entertainment now that you know as far as Jay Z being the main proponent as far as who

picks these performers it makes sense why we've had a Rihanna while we've had a Kendrick why we've had the weekend we would have had Kanye if he didn't go crazy you guys but when it comes to that also had Usher Dr. Dre Shakira and Shakira and Jailo you're probably thinking to yourself man there's a lot of R&B and hip-hop acts well now you know why sounds like damn look at the state of hip-hop like what's going on So specifically getting back into hip hop. Let's talk about size as side seven. I mean, my fault.

White tank top. I mean, goodness. I keep forgetting his name. Kendrick. Let's get back into Kendrick. As when it comes to Mr. Duckworth, he had his whole Super Bowl set leak by the one and only academics. I don't know how many McDoubles and bottles of Hennessy this man was off of,

but he was boasting with the most egregious smile because of him being able to successfully lead Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl halftime set because you know, of course, that was in the midst of his victory lap as far as going at Drake. Now, that being said, let's play, you know, I'm just going to play this for a little bit so y'all can see this man, talk off of 50 McDevilles and 20

Hennessy bottles. Oh! Oh, no. Oh my goodness. You know, sometimes, you know, I think about letting people know that I named myself after academics as far as my name being analytics. But I think people who are connoisseur of academics and of course my content safe to say that if you don't see a difference if you don't

hear a difference then there may be something wrong with you but anyways let's get back into one of my he is still one of my main inspirations as far as covering music but as you can see we have very different ways of covering stuff nowadays you like yo done big than the chat nigger let me tell you i got that niggink's fucking super bowl i don't think he can i don't think he could get any closer to the camera by the way now there's analytic dreams video on spot to see the video along with the audio but do it your own risk do it at your own risk so let's get back into it a niggil who worked at the fucking arena is a chat nigga oh what why he say it like that he said it like a car in 30 towns and after all that's like what in the world after all that how you're gonna go on the whole

ramp and then switch your car in any town's i don't understand anyways let's get back into his rant we're gonna work it out can't beat the chat stop it all right so anyways that's basically he's basically boasting about leaking kensrick lamar's whole super bowl set and if you don't believe them or if you want to see proof uh safe to say that every single time you look up kensik lamar's super bowl set leak from before he performed um it doesn't show up it shows this right here but uh you will be glad to know that of course i did my journalistic due diligence and founded myself because i was like i know it has to exist on the internet somewhere and i finally found it so this is exactly what the leaks look like in the beginning let me see if i could find this so a

Essentially, this is what it looked like as far as when it was leaked allegedly from academics. Because I don't know if he's still going to be sued by NFL. You know, I ain't trying to help them out. But it does seem like, let's see, why it's not? Okay, as I try to be a W tech guy, let me try to see. So I have the actual picture of the Super Bowl. So analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio. He's about to show the leaked set list and we're going to show the leaked actual state.

See if I could find it. Okay. All right, so this came out right before his performance. entire thing was leaked so you have the leak set list let me take myself away so you can see the so as far as kendrick as you can see this whole list was pretty much on the nose as the gnx trailer song going to squabble up um essentially was the way he started off because he had the genx teaser and then of course he had squabble up then he had humble then he had dna euphoria man at the garden peekaboo luther all of the stars now like us literally this was a one to one so academics did successfully leak his set list very petty i don't co-sign it

but whenever he talks about certain things in the music industry he usually be he's usually on the nose you know whenever he finishes talking about black men getting locked up and police body cam footage for like 16 hours that that one hour of that one hour of music coverage music industry coverage by livixton is some of the greatest coverage i'm not going to lie to you man might as well be stephen a covering sports so he broke this down like a Kilo and Miley Sars is basically showcased how this was his set list. Can I draw on this? I don't think I could draw on. Yeah, I'll see it. It's to the left. It's to the left of Kendrick. So, and you can tell it's this league set list because nobody's in the stadium. They're basically

prepping. This is how the prep looks before the actual show. So, yeah, it's actually kind of crazy. Academics did say he was going to get sued. I don't know if they actually came into fruition. I wouldn't be upset with him. Well, I don't know. I mean, I'll never advocate for anybody to get sued. But that is crazy to leak somebody's whole Super Bowl performance. You only get that once as far as a solo act because he did. He was on there twice, but the first time was under Dr. Dre. So that's the main thing I wanted to go over. It's always a huge impact when an artist performs at the Super Bowl,

which is why NFL doesn't like to pay people to perform, and which is why some of the top musicians that are still making the biggest bucks in the industry, sometimes turn it down. But as far as the seven-year run, I will say, Jay Z's had a great run of picking artists. Now, of course, it's been reported that they asked Drake to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show, and he declined. But that was way before the Kendrick and Drake stuff and before, you know, Drake and Jay Z became mortal enemies. Because, you know, Drake has everybody who co-signed their pedophile anthem.

So with that being said, getting back into the 26th Super Bowl halftime show, it will be happening February 8th, 2028 at Levi Stadium in Santa Clara, California. and when it comes to Bad Bunny, his Puerto Rico residency just ended after 31 dates. It ended September of this year and his upcoming tour is in the Dominican Republic. Once again, he canceled his U.S. leg of the tour because of the ice race. Not political podcast, I'm just letting you know the state of the economy, the state of the world, really. His upcoming tour is 24 dates. It starts November 21st and it's in Dominican Republic. And when it comes to that, I think that this will be a fantastic Super Bowl performance.

Bad Bunny is one of the biggest musicians in the world. His album, Debbie Tararamos Photos, which that album is the 11th most player album in the world. And I believe that album came out. That album came out January 2025. Well, no, January 5th, 2025. And it is almost October 2025. and it's still the 11th most play album in the world. So safe to say, Bad Bunny is one of the biggest musicians in the music industry.

So I think it's going to be a great performance. I don't really have any particular tracks I would want to hear from Bad Bunny. I'm a huge Drake fan. I do feel like their collab as far as Mia with Straight Heat, had Drake singing in the Spanish and stuff like that. But, you know, I don't want to, you know, y'all going to be saying I'm glazing Drake again. You guys.
